EDITORS’ NOTES he moment you move into an apartment from a reliable property management company, you will be able to enjoy a number of benefits. One cheque basically takes care of it all. It’s finding the right location that takes work.
Unlike furniture, paint and being a good neighbour, your home’s location is the one thing that you cannot change, so it’s important to choose wisely. What critical things should you consider? There are so many personal variables, it’s really up to you to decide. As an example, if it is just as important to be close to your children’s school as it is to your place of work, then look for a location that offers you the best of both worlds.
If you own a car but want to use public transportation whenever possible to save on parking and gas costs, a well-connected mass transit hub may be a better option for you. If you’re a walker, close proximity to major amenities should be a definite consideration. Doing errands, such as grocery shopping and banking on foot, has many health benefits and gives you a chance to meet your neighbours – and discover new places too. Don’t let the cost of rent solely dictate your choice of location. Make a list of your priorities first, and then take the time to assess each location for its merits and weight your options. Once you’ve nailed that down, you’ll be able to reap the benefits of a great new place to call home.

i
am not a big fan of having more space than I need. It’s a bone of contention between my husband and me. He would prefer more space, I always want less. It’s an odd thing to disagree on, but there are a lot of good reasons to keep the amount of space you live in to a minimum. Reason 1: Cleaning. The more space you have, the more there is to clean. Reason 2: Budget. Why pay for space that you don’t really use. One bedroom per person. One kitchen, a bathroom or two, a den and maybe some play space for the kids. Is a guest bedroom really necessary or would it be more cost effective to use a guest suite in the building or even a local hotel? For the number of times one uses a dining room, might it be easier and more comfortable to make use of the building’s party room? Reason 3: Urban sprawl. The population keeps growing. The demands on the city keep growing. If everyone used only the amount of space they needed, the city would be much more efficient. But there is something to be said for not denying yourself what you need. If you do need a guest room because you always have family and friends come into town then make sure you have one. If you’re an avid entertainer then find yourself a suite that affords you the room. If you’re a collector, make sure hunt for a suite with plenty of storage. And if you’re a hobbyist or work at home don’t forego the studio or office space. Your home should really be a place that reflects your needs – not anyone else’s. When you start your search for that new apartment make sure you know what you need in your home. Now that you’re ready to start that search, we’re here to help. With Renters Guide in hand you’ll find the perfect place. Our magazine and website, homeTRADER.ca, offer the best selection of available apartments as well as informative articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

Thorncliffe Park
an urban enclave by Ivan Sandoval
N
eighbourhoods often create their own distinct personality when their location is secluded from the rest of the city. Thorncliffe Park is in a unique area –the Don Valley cuts it off from its immediate urban surroundings. The neighbourhood has grown on its own, encompassing a significant rental population comprised of mid and highrise apartment buildings fashioned in a semi-circular style, approximately one and a half kilometres long in Toronto’s East York area. Amenities are plentiful, with schools, parks and shopping plazas all located within walking distance. A perfect location for families, commuters and explorers. 8G
cityscene
The Area Thorncliffe Park is located just northwest of the Don Valley Parkway and just south of Eglinton Avenue in a little pocket of fresh air on the cusp of the downtown core. The prominent neighbourhood of Leaside borders its west side while the Don River, which provides spectacular ravine views for Thorncliffe residents, provides its eastern border.
Shopping and Having Fun East York Town Centre is a major shopping mall located right at the entrance of Thorncliffe Park Drive at Overlea Boulevard and includes a number of convenience including a pharmacy, restaurants, clothing stores, an LCBO and a medical and dental office complex. There is always a vibrant feel to this area, with pedestrian traffic walking to and from the mall or other points of interest such as the Ontario Science Centre located right around the corner at Don Mills and Eglinton. The Jenner-Jean Marie Recreational Centre is located right in the middle of Thorncliffe Park Drive and serves as the community focal point that helps to keep residents active. This modern facility includes a gym, meeting rooms and the Thorncliffe Public Library. E.T. Seton Park is quite picturesque on the West Don River Valley, a part of the Don Valley trail system with links to both Sunnybrook Park and Edwards Gardens. At the South end of Thorncliffe Park, you can find Leaside Park, a large open space with baseball diamonds and soccer fields.
Living in Thorncliffe Park The TTC runs straight through the neighbourhood stopping frequently in front of most of the buildings. The Don Valley Parkway is just around the corner providing easy access to downtown Toronto or to highways 404 and 401. Schools are plentiful in the area making Thorncliffe Park ideal for young and/or established families. Thorncliffe Park’s buildings are almost entirely home to professional and experienced property owners and property management firms. These particular property managers continue to make significant upgrades to their buildings, which range from executive highrise towers to smaller, quaint apartment buildings. The improvements add further incentive to live in this well-diversified and convenient part of the city, a selfsufficient neighbourhood. Rent is affordable, with a wide variety of styles available to accommodate the needs of growing families, singles and couples. It’s an ideal choice for urban convenience with lots of lifestyle options.

There are also playing fields, tennis courts, cycling trails, recreational centres and community programming, offering something for everyone from students to seniors. At Rideau Towers suites are spacious and offer great closet space. One-, two- and three-bedroom suites offer a variety of amazing layouts, with many suites featuring a second bathroom.

LesLie styLes, foodie & traveL aficionado, shares some deLicious dishes found on her traveLs around the worLd
spinach and ricotta manicotti
directions
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta shells according to package instructions. Drain well and arrange in a single layer on an oiled baking sheet.
m
y Aunt used to make her famous homemade Manicotti when I was quite young. Always eagerly anticipated and quickly devoured, her baked Manicotti was always a special treat. Inspired by childhood memories, I decided to make my own version using a rich cheesy spinach filling, topped with homemade tomato sauce, and a generous handful of shaved pecorino and mozzarella cheese. Manicotti, means sleeve in Italian, and is one of the oldest shapes of Italian pasta. Known for its hearty consistency, the pasta’s unique tubular shape makes it perfect for sumptuous fillings and robust, highly flavorful sauces. This easy and delicious recipe for Spinach and Ricotta Manicotti, is baked for just half an hour until it’s cooked through to bubbling golden perfection. A wonderfully heartwarming and flavourful dish, this recipe for Spinach and Ricotta Manicotti is delicious served with some fragrant garlic bread and lovely crisp salad. Buon appetito!
24G
ingredients serves four › 8 manicotti shells
› 1/8 tsp fresh grated nutmeg
› 15-oz. container light ricotta cheese
› 1 large egg, beaten
› 8-oz. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained of excess moisture
› 2 cups Marinara sauce (homemade or storebought)
› 1/2 tsp salt
› 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
› 1/4 tsp black pepper
› 1 cup grated mozzarella
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine ricotta, 1/2 cup Parmesan, the beaten egg and spinach. Season filling with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Transfer filling to a large zip-top plastic bag, or piping bag with a circular nozzle. Twist and squeeze the bag so that the filling is in one corner. If using the plastic bag technique, snip a 3/4-inch opening in the corner of the plastic bag. Pipe filling into both ends of each pasta shell. In a shallow oven-proof baking dish, spoon a thin layer of marinara sauce to just cover the base. Arrange the stuffed shells over the sauce, side by side. Cover the shells with another layer of Marinara sauce, just covering them. Top the assembled manicotti with the remaining Parmesan and all of the Mozzarella. Bake until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes before serving and garnish with a basil or whole chives. Serve with some homemade garlic bread and a crisp green salad.

The Best Reasons to
Rent By Jane Herman
W
ould you rather spend your free time seeing the latest movies or grouting your bathroom tile? Would you prefer to spend your extra money each month on unexpected furnace repairs or sock it away in mutual funds?
32G
For reasons such as these, more and more time-pressed individuals, empty nesters, single parents and young professionals are choosing to rent. Here’s why: Hassle-Free living When you rent, you’ll never have to call a plumber, electrician or handyman again! Renting frees you from the cost and hassle of all home maintenance and repairs. Empty-nesters can happily shed house-related chores and move closer to entertainment, restaurants and shopping, while young professionals can enjoy a simpler lifestyle and shorter commute. aFFordability By renting, you’ll be able to afford to live in an area that might otherwise be out of your price range. And, unless you’re planning on staying in a house for more than five years, you risk losing money if you buy a home. Mortgages are amortized so you’re paying mostly interest in the first few years. Add in property tax, insurance, maintenance costs and the fees associated with selling the house and five years of renting can be significantly less than owning. tHe rewards oF renting Renting gives you the freedom to invest your savings in stocks, mutual funds, a small business, your education, or a vacation, instead of a home. lock in Utility costs In most cases, you will not have to incur bills when you rent. In many apartments the cost of utilities are included in your rent. Because of fluctuating market prices, utility rates can rise dramatically. As a renter, you will not have to bear these cost increases directly. apartment living oFFers services When you lock yourself out of your apartment, the property manager can always let you in. Likewise, you can often count on someone being there to receive a parcel when you’re at work or away from your home. Some apartment communities include concierge services that offer everything from babysitting to housekeeping, pet care, and grocery shopping. Now that’s for me! sUperior amenities packages Apartments have evolved, and many now offer a package of amenities and services that cannot be easily or affordably replicated in a single family home, like onsite fitness centres, swimming pools, tennis and squash courts, business centres, movie screening rooms and party facilities. never be lonely! When you rent, you’ll enjoy the benefits of living in a community with friends and neighbours all around you. renting oFFers a myriad oF liFestyles As a renter you can sample life in an urban loft, midtown highrise, or restored coach house.
baby in tow Choose your apartment based on the neighbourhood school, park, library or day care services that are best suited to your particular needs. park UndergroUnd If your building includes underground parking, you’ll never have to deal with the dash to your car on cold, wet mornings! proFessional management Many of today’s owners are large public and private firms who have invested for the long term. You’ll reap such benefits as: convenient on-line leasing and maintenance requests; 60-day no risk trial periods; 24 hour maintenance guarantees; resident chat facilities and rent-to-own programs! tHere is sUre to be a coFFee sHop witHin tHrowing distance Wherever you choose to rent, you’ll be able to wake up and smell the coffee – now that’s the best reason of all!

BE CAUTIOUS, BE PREPARED, BE INSURED
by Ted WhiTehead & STephen Kearley
”Be cautious - be Prepared” is good advice for anyone at any stage of life - and it has particular significance when it comes to tenants in rental apartment buildings. Unfortunately, not all renters understand that they may be responsible for what happens in their unit such as someone getting injured, or having to replace their contents due to fire or other devastation. Fewer than half of renters obtain tenants insurance. Often, this is because they are unaware of their responsibilities when it comes to protecting themselves, and their belongings. They assume the Landlord’s insurance covers that, which it does not. The insurance property managers/owners purchase covers the building and their personal liability, but not the tenants. At the Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO), we believe that all apartment renters should carry tenant insurance. Tenant insurance is generally not an onerous cost and can bring tremendous peace of mind, should you ever have to deal financially with unpredictable losses (which often can be substantial). Many rental-housing consumers underestimate what their personal belongings would cost to replace. Clothing, shoes, coats and other personal belongings can cost thousands of dollars to replace.
72G
A good practice for all renters is to write down what it would cost to replace each item in your apartment and then total the cost of those items. Do not forget to add computers, entertainment equipment and other items if you had to replace them because they were ruined by fire or water or some other disaster. When you have completed this exercise, most renters find the total cost to replace everything is surprising and financially burdensome (particularly if they had to do it all at once). It’s important to note that insurance coverage is usually paid on a replacement cost basis, so that kitchen table set you purchased 10 years ago, would be replaced based on what it would cost today. Renters who have tenants insurance can purchase coverage with a liability clause to protect them if someone does get hurt inside their home, or just as important, this liability section can cover such things as your dog biting someone, or property damage and bodily injury for which you may be liable off your premises. Insurance can also cover damage to other units in the building that are
harmed through carelessness by fire or other liability perils. This would be covered under the Tenants Legal Liability coverage. If renters find themselves faced with paying medical costs of someone who is hurt because of their negligence, or paying for building repairs due to something they did, the financial impact can be devastating. Apartment-shoppers looking at buildings that have successfully completed the Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP), can ask the building manager or leasing agent for information on tenant insurance. CRBP was created by FRPO to help ensure a high quality of life for tenants in certified buildings. Visit www.frpo.org and www.crbprogram.org.

T
he average rental apartment vacancy rate in Canada’s 35 major centres1 increased to 2.6 per cent in October 2012, from 2.2 per cent in October 2011, according to the fall Rental Market Survey2 released recently by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). “Lower levels of household formation among young adults reduced rental housing demand,” said Mathieu Laberge, deputy chief economist at CMHC’s Market Analysis Centre. “This, combined with an increase in the supply of newly constructed, purpose-built rental apartments, pushed Canada’s vacancy rate upward. Meanwhile, demand for rental condominium apartments remained strong, with the vacancy rate holding steady in most of Canada’s largest urban centres, including Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.” The results of CMHC’s fall survey reveal that, in October 2012, the major centres with the lowest vacancy rates in the primary apartment rental market were in Regina (1.0 per cent), Thunder Bay (1.1 per cent) and Calgary (1.3 per cent). The centres with the highest vacancy rates were in Saint John (9.7 per cent), Windsor (7.3 per cent) and Moncton (6.7 per cent). Overall, the average rent for twobedroom apartments in existing structures across Canada’s 35 major centres increased 2.2 per cent between October 2011 and October 2012, the same pace of rent increase that was recorded between October 2010 and October 2011. The average rent for a two-bedroom apartment in new and existing structures was $901 in October 20123. The highest average monthly rents for two-bedroom apartments in new and existing structures in Canada’s major centres were in Vancouver ($1,261), Toronto ($1,183) and Calgary ($1,150).
The lowest average monthly rents for two-bedroom apartments in new and existing structures were in Saguenay ($549), Trois-Rivières ($550) and Sherbrooke ($578). CMHC’s October 2012 Rental Market Survey also covers condominium apartments offered for rent in 11 large urban centres, including Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal. Rental condominium vacancy rates ranged from a high of 3.2 per cent in Ottawa to a low of 0.9 per cent in Saskatoon, holding steady in most centres from October 2011. Average monthly rents for two-bedroom condominium apartments were highest in Vancouver ($1,662) and lowest in Québec ($1,022). As Canada’s national housing agency, CMHC draws on more than 65 years of experience to help Canadians access a variety of high quality, environmentally sustainable and affordable housing solutions. CMHC also provides reliable, impartial and up-to-date housing market reports, analysis and knowledge to support and assist consumers and the housing industry in making informed decisions. For more information visit CMHC.ca. and follow CMHC on Twitter @CMHC_ca 1 Major centres are based on Statistics Canada Census Metropolitan Areas (CMAs), with the exception of the Ottawa-Gatineau CMA, which is treated as two centres for Rental Market Survey purposes, and Charlottetown, which is a Census Agglomeration (CA).
CMHC’s Rental Market Survey is conducted twice a year, in April and October, to provide vacancy, availability and rent information on privately initiated structures in all centres with populations of 10,000 and more across Canada. Reports are released in June and December. 2
The fall survey covers apartment and row structures containing at least three rental units and, unlike the spring survey, reports information on: a) Smaller geographic zones within centres; b) Secondary rental market (rented condominium apartments, single detached, semi-detached, duplexes or accessory apartments). Year-over-year comparisons of average rents can be slightly misleading because rents in newly built structures tend to be higher than in existing buildings. Excluding new structures and focusing on structures existing in both the October 2011 and October 2012 surveys provides a better indication of actual rent increases paid by tenants. 3

MIKEY defibrillator
gives two-year-old Carter Hansen a second chance at life
A
MIKEY defibrillator administered by Craig and Jennifer Hansen on Tuesday, December 5, 2012, has given their 2-year old son Carter, a second chance at life. The defibrillator, provided through the Mikey’s Kids program, was on standby at the Hansen family’s Nobleton, ON home. This is the 15th save by a MIKEY, since The Mikey Network was founded in 2003.
Said Craig Hansen, “In May 2012, our two-year-old son Carter went into arrhythmia and then cardiac arrest due to a previously undiagnosed benign heart tumor. The paramedics got a rhythm back after 27 minutes, but the resulting significant brain injury kept us at SickKids and Holland Bloorview Children’s Rehab Hospital for six months, and we’re still fighting to regain as much of our son’s coordination, vision and speech as we can. “We went home a month ago with an AED from The Mikey Network, knowing that any further arrest would be incredibly critical. Neurologists told us that by the time EMS arrived, it would be too late. Our only chance was the defibrillator. “Carter went into arrhythmia again on Tuesday morning [December 4, 2012]. We started CPR immediately. Because of the training supplied by The Mikey Network, we had his shirt off and the pads on him well ahead of the voice prompts from the AED, which analyzed and advised a shock, which we delivered. The change in our son was immediate. “He started breathing on his own again. We observed him and kept the AED on him until EMS arrived. “You guys gave us another chance with our son. Thank you, thank you, thank you.”
Craig, Carter and Jennifer Hansen with their lifesaving MIKEY photo: Paul Casselman
Said Hugh Heron, chairman of The Mikey Network,“When a child has a serious cardiac problem, the family lives in constant fear, knowing the heart can skip a beat at any moment. As a result, the child often has to stay close to home and/or a hospital. The Mikey’s Kids program provides families with portable MIKEYS so these children can lead more normal lives. The Mikey Network works with various organizations including Toronto’s SickKids Hospital, Ottawa’s Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario and Hamilton’s McMaster Children’s Hospital, to provide MIKEYS to families in need.” The Mikey Network, founded in 2003, is a registered Canadian charity working to create public awareness and provide education about heart healthy lifestyles. To date, 15 lives have been saved, over 1,300 MIKEY defibrillators have been placed across Canada, with 11,000 people trained in CPR/AED. The Mikey Network was named for Mike Salem, a valued partner at Heathwood Homes and The Heron Group who experienced sudden cardiac arrest and died on a golf course in 2002. Other Mikey Network programs include: Mikey’s Kids – The Mikey At Home Program, Mikey On Board, The Mikey’s Young At Heart School Defibrillator Program, Mikey On the GO, Mikey Cops Are Tops.

Pause, then plan,
D
if overwhelmed by money IEF oFFErs thrEE tIps For copIng wIth monEy strEss: • Assess your situation. Take stock of your financial situation, identify what’s causing the stress and make a plan to address it. For example, if you’re overspending every month, use IEF’s budget worksheet to help you account for all expenses and find areas where you can cut back. In addition, if you’re weighed down by debt, use IEF’s pay off credit cards and debt calculator to prioritize which debts to pay off first.
W
orrying too much about money may be hazardous to your health. A recent study in North America found that people with high levels of debt-related stress are more likely to experience physical and mental health problems, such as heart attacks, high blood pressure, ulcers, insomnia, migraines, anxiety or depression, than those with low debt-related stress.
• Get help. A financial advisor can help provide some perspective and expertise to help you get back on track and feel more in control of your financial situation. Learn how to choose an advisor, and review the eight questions to ask in the “Getting advice” section of IEF’s website. • Keep your eyes on the prize. As you make progress toward your goal, find small ways to reward yourself and stay motivated. Think cheap and cheerful – buy yourself flowers or do something healthy (and free) to take your mind off the stress.
“The impact of financial stress can be felt well beyond your wallet, but it shouldn’t take over your life,” said Tom Hamza, president of Investor Education Fund (IEF), Canada’s leading authority on financial literacy education and research. “The key to conquering money worries is to take action. Even small changes to your financial habits can make a big difference in the long run.”

safety
Protect yourself from
the silent killer gas
C
arbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous gas that you cannot see, smell or taste. It is often referred to as the “silent killer.” CO is produced by the incomplete burning of fuels such as natural gas, propane, heating oil, kerosene, coal, charcoal or wood. Improperly installed or poorly maintained appliances that run on these fuels may create unsafe levels of CO. In enclosed spaces such as your home, cottage or recreational vehicle, even a small amount is dangerous. Exposure to CO can cause flulike symptoms such as headaches, nausea, dizziness, burning eyes, confusion, drowsiness and even loss of consciousness. In very severe cases, CO poisoning can cause brain damage and death. The elderly, children, people with heart or respiratory conditions, and pets may be particularly sensitive to the gas and may feel the effects sooner. The conditions that can create a CO hazard include: • Fuel-burning appliances, venting systems and chimneys that have not been serviced and maintained regularly by a qualified service technician or heating contractor; • A chimney blocked by a bird or squirrel’s nest, snow and ice or other debris; • Improper venting of a furnace and cracked furnace heat exchangers; • Exhaust fumes seeping into your home from a car running in an attached garage.
Be aware of CarBon Monoxide danger signs • You or other members of your family are experiencing the symptoms of CO exposure; • You notice a sharp, penetrating odour or smell of gas when your furnace or other fuel-burning appliance turns on; • The air feels stale or stuffy; • The pilot light of your gas furnace or other fuel-burning appliance goes out; • Chalky, white powder forms on the chimney/exhaust vent pipe or soot builds up around the exhaust vent; • Excessive moisture forms on windows and walls; • The alarm of a carbon monoxide detector sounds. • Using fuel-burning appliances designed for outdoor use (barbecues, lanterns, chainsaws, lawnmowers, snowblowers) in a closed area (tent, recreational vehicle, cottage, workshop, garage);
alarm sounds in your home, open all doors and windows to ventilate. If you can’t find the problem and the alarm continues, contact a qualified heating contractor to check your fuel-burning equipment.
• Combustion gases spilling into a home if too much air is being consumed by a fireplace or exhausted by kitchen/bathroom fans in a tightlysealed home.
Remember that carbon monoxide detectors are a good second line of defence, but they do not eliminate the need for regular inspection, maintenance and safe use of your fuelburning appliances. For information on where to find a qualified contractor in your area, check out the website of the Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Institute of Canada at www.hrai.ca, or call 1-877-467-4724.
At any time, if you or any one else in your home is experiencing the symptoms of CO, make sure that everyone leaves the home immediately and gets medical help. Call 911 or your local fire department. If a CO detector

Untangle yourself
for better ‘connected’ gift giving by resolutions of exercising and dieting, it’s a sign of festivities coming to an end. And now that life is back to normal, it’s time to peel away the packaging and play with the new tech toys.

$
Timothy Leslie, a Rogers TechXpert advisor, says Canadians are eager to upgrade their tech during the holidays. “Many people have their new year’s resolutions focused on getting the right tech accessories. It can be exciting to plug it all in, but by the same token, it can be quite daunting.” He adds that although families may have a go-to tech savvy member, they might not always be available or have the time to keep everything running smoothly.
Y
ou’ve been told multiple times about the hottest devices and gadgets on your family’s wish list this year. from grandparents seeking a tablet so they can read best-sellers in style, to parents looking to sleek up their smartphones or laptops, or to kids and teens yearning for the latest gaming system, no longer is it only the selfprofessed tech geeks who desire the hottest tech gifts. now, the whole family is following the latest trends and is just as eager to get their hands on these buzz-worthy electronics. When all the gifts have been unwrapped and fireplace lounging and dessert indulging is replaced
“Once the holidays are over, new engagements and errands keep our lives going at a fast pace, and it’s time consuming flipping through instruction manuals or troubleshooting on your own.” He continues, “It’s important that you manage the health of your connected devices such as computers, tablets and gaming systems, and it’s worth exploring the support options that are available to you.” For those who would rather deal with their tech issues at home and want instant help without having to schedule an appointment, extended technology support can be the right fit. Agents at Rogers TechXpert say they can help with products and software that are built and sold by various manufacturers and retailers. Leslie mentions that people are looking for peace of mind when dabbling with their electronic issues. “Imagine it’s late at night and your daughter’s printer is acting up right before the final touches on her school project. You can actually connect with a personal technology expert instantly by phone or online chat to enlist their help.” He also points out that TechXpert agents can identify and resolve issues such as viruses, assist with downloading applications and working with other connected devices to your home network. “These specially trained technology experts are dedicated to making your life hassle-free. With a few clicks of a button, they can securely remote connect into your computer to help problem-solve.” Shiny new devices run the best on super fast Wi-Fi. Leslie adds that Rogers has been rolling out download speeds of up to 150 Mbps with the New Ultimate Hi-Speed Internet plan. With expert support and blazing fast Wi-Fi, you can truly unleash the power and potential of your new holiday gadgets. NC

Create a Cozy time
all winter long
C
anadian long winter nights are upon us, but that doesn’t mean hunkering down to wait out the cold weather. A cozy gathering with friends will ease the chill when the mercury dips below zero—and there’s no shortage of ways to get the good times rolling,it just takes a little creativity. Take a look at these ideas:
Host a theme night Nothing is cozier than a warm cabin on a cold snowy night, so why not recreate one in the comfort of your own home? Invite friends to sport their coolest retro sweaters and bring their favourite board games. Light a fire (or candles), set out blankets and serve après ski-inspired fare like fondue, sausages and roasted vegetables. Stock your bar with all the staples, as well as a few seasonal surprises giving the nod to winter, like Rickard’s Oakhouse, a smoky, lightly-toasted winter lager.

Cozy up with a favourite flick Who doesn’t love movie night? Re-arrange your furniture in front of the TV or pile-up pillows so everyone can snuggle-up. A few favourite retro movies, nostalgic snacks like buttered popcorn, toffee, and oven-baked s’mores, will ensure you create a night to remember. Then sit back, relax and enjoy the show. Bring it outside Let’s face it – we’re Canadian – we were made for the cold weather so sometimes outside is where it’s at. Guide guests to the backyard by lining your paths with candles placed in tins. If there’s enough snow, build a snowman butler to “serve” your friends munchies and use snow drifts to chill your beverages. Offer guests blankets and scarves and place a portable backyard fire pit in the centre of the action to keep fingers and toes warm and toasty so the party can go late into the evening. NC

Online investing and saving made easier What can a Pre-Authorized Contribution (PAC) do for you? • Helps you save regularly and reach your investment goals sooner by paying yourself first with cash contributions in regular, easy-to-manage installments; • Saves you the stress of coming up with one large sum of cash when you are close to a registered account contribution deadline; • Alleviates the time and effort involved in personally transferring funds on a weekly,
T
he key component of achieving your investment goals is the habit of saving regularly. It is very easy to forget about savings as we focus on paying our bills, or to let saving regularly fade as our expenses creep up. One way to overcome this tendency is to pay yourself first and do this automatically through a pre-authorized contribution plan.

Build self-esteem for a lifetime of confidence
H
ow a child feels about him or herself can have a strong influence on their academic achievement. If their self-esteem is strong, they can respond to life’s challenges better, and become happy and successful adults. As a parent, you play a major role in shaping your child’s self-esteem. Here are some ways to help your child feel good about themselves: • Acknowledge and encourage your child’s strengths and special talents. Provide opportunities for your child to participate in things she is good at, such as music, sports, dance, theatre, or community service. • Help your child see the positive. Remind him of his past achievements and special skills. Developing confidence in his ability to solve problems is a key element in selfesteem. • Teach your child that it’s okay to make mistakes. Reassure him that no one gets everything right all of the time.
$
• Support your child’s attempts to try new things. Help her to feel that she doesn’t have to be a “star” at everything she tries. The pressure to succeed may lead a child to limit herself to activities she knows she can already do. • Help your child take responsibility for the negative consequences of his own behaviour. Learning to acknowledge and try to repair harm or damage done to others is a far more effective tool to build a child’s self-respect than blame or punishment. After school programs can help children develop self-esteem by providing structured and supervised activities such as computer instruction, sports, literacy tutoring, music and art lessons, nutrition guidance, and help with homework. “We’ve funded hundreds of Canada’s after school programs and have learned that kids enrolled in these programs actually develop enhanced social behaviours and are more motivated to excel and stay in school,” says Jasmina Zurovac, director of corporate donations at RBC. “This in turn has a positive impact on a child’s self-esteem.” The RBC After School Grants Project supports programs that help kids learn, grow and reach their full potential.

What to look for in an apartment By Jane Herman
A
re you feeling a little overwhelmed by the challenge of trying to find an apartment? Even wading through all of the ads and listings in Renters Guide can be daunting, unless you understand how they are organized. But where do you start? The first criteria in your decision should be price: How much can you realistically afford to spend per month? Most financial planners recommend that your rent (not including extras such as parking, hydro, cable, etc.) should amount to less than 30 per cent of your monthly income. This may be hard to achieve, but thinking about how much you can spend on rent will also help you to set up a budget. Include all expenses you’ll be responsible for each month (food, utilities, telephone, transportation, laundry, parking, etc.) and other, annual or variable expenses, such as clothing, moving expenses, renter’s insurance, savings, recreation, entertainment, etc. The more you spend on rent, the less you’ll have available for other things. Next, determine what area you want to live in. How will you determine where to look? If you are new to the area, you may want to live near friends or relatives, within a certain commuting radius of work or school. If you have children, do you want to live in a particular school district? Are parks and play areas nearby? Is proximity to the transit or a major highway may be a priority Is the area convenient to shopping, library, recreation facilities, entertainment, restaurants, etc. What are the traffic patterns in the neighbourhood? How is the traffic at rush hour? How are the noise levels in the area at different times of the day, and would this be a factor in your decision? With these factors in mind, make a list of several different neighbourhoods in which you could look: Area 1: ________________________ Area 2: ________________________ Area 3: ________________________ Type of accommodation: Many apartments are in highrises. A highrise building is one that is six or more storeys, has elevators, security, laundry
facilities, and, frequently, sports and/or recreation facilities and other amenities, as well as efficient electrical, heating and plumbing systems. A walk-up or low-rise would be less than five storeys high, may have no elevator and few conveniences. However, the rent would generally be less at this type of apartment than at a highrise building in the same area. Other kinds of apartments you could rent include: A basement apartment is a basement in a house that has been converted to an apartment. It may have a separate entrance. The apartment may have its own bathroom, kitchen, laundry room and heating system, or it may share those amenities with the rest of the home. A low rise apartment building may also have basement apartments. A duplex, triplex or fourplex is a group of two, three or four apartments together in the same building. Apartment Features Search through the Renters Guide listings to find those that match your criteria. They are organized by area. You should also use Renters Guide companion website, hometrader.ca. It is an excellent source of apartment listings, also organized by area. You can also find potential apartments by walking around or driving through the area you have chosen, or through word of mouth. If a friend or relative is happy living in a particular building, chances are you will be too. When you go to look at apartments, inspect them thoroughly before you sign the lease or give a first month’s rental deposit. Some landlords have a condition checklist on which to record details upon move in and move out. Be sure to inspect walls, floors, bathroom and kitchen faucets and fixtures, appliances, windows, doors, etc. Make sure you note such things as the condition of the property and the building. Note the size and location of the closets. You may want to take along a tape measure to see how your furniture might work in the space. If you go through the process carefully, chances are you’ll be more satisfied with your decision after you move in.

Rental Agreements What You Should Know Before you Sign a Lease
W
hen you rent a home or apartment in Canada, the landlord will usually ask you to sign a written rental agreement. This legal contract is also often called a “lease.”
Under the laws of each province and territory, tenants and landlords have certain rights and responsibilities whether they have a written agreement or not. Nevertheless, a written lease agreement can help spell out all the terms you and your landlord want to have covered and agreed to. You may also wish to seek legal advice before accepting the terms. To help you know what to expect, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) offers the following list of terms that can be found in most rental agreements: • The names of the landlord and tenant(s). • The address of the home or apartment you are renting. • The monthly rent you agreed to pay, with or without utilities, parking, cable television or other services. • The date when the rent is due (for example, on the first day of each month). • The amount and terms of any rent, security or damage deposits you agreed to pay.
• A list of which repairs or upkeep will be your responsibility. • The term of rental period (most rental agreements are usually for one year, but some may be month-to-month or week-to-week). • The conditions for ending or canceling your lease, including financial implications and the amount of advance notice you must give the landlord if you decide to move out (for example, 60 days notice). • The rules or restrictions for subletting the property. • The amount the landlord is allowed to increase the rent in the future. • Any other specific restrictions (such as whether or not you can smoke in the home and whether you can have boarders, pets or a waterbed, etc.). • Details on when and how the landlord can enter your home or apartment. • The procedure for making changes to the contract. • A method for resolving any disputes or disagreements (for example, disputes about late rent payments, damage to the property or eviction). • Contact information for both you and your landlord in case of an
emergency (usually including a phone number, fax and email). For more information or a free copy of CMHC’s Guide to Renting a Home, call CMHC at 1-800-6682642 or visit our website at www. cmhc.ca. For more than 60 years, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has been Canada’s national housing agency and a source of objective, reliable housing expertise.

Packing Tips and List Tips to make your move a little easier. Packing TiPs
❏ ❏
Gather boxes in all sizes from friends, neighbors, and stores.
❏
Create a “portable packing kit” with marking pens, a tape measure, packing tape, twine, and scissors. Carry it with you as you pack up items around your home.
❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏
Reinforce the bottom of boxes with extra tape for added strength.
❏
Don’t move flammable, combustible, corrosive, or explosive items such as paint, gasoline, and ammunition.
❏
Pack a bag of personal items you’ll need during the move (change of clothes, toiletries, medicine, maps, food, and drinks). Keep it in an easy-to-find place when you pack
Collect cushioning material such as bubble wrap, foam pellets, furniture pads, old blankets, plastic bags, tissue paper, newspapers, and small towels to use as padding inside boxes.
Label each box with the name of the room in your new home where it should be placed. List the contents of the box on the side of it. Number the boxes and keep a list of which boxes go in which room in your new home. Label boxes containing fragile items with large red lettering. Place china in plastic bags and stack plates upright on their sides, not flat. Pack your TV, stereo, and computer in their original boxes whenever possible. Keep boxes to 50 pounds or less. Pack heavy items into their own smaller boxes and place lighter items together into larger boxes. (Hint-Don’t pack all your books into one box!)
general moving TiPs
❏ Disconnect and bundle cords on television and stereo components. Label each cord with masking tape and a description of where to connect it.
❏ Plan and measure where you furniture will be placed in your new home. It’s helpful to draw a layout of your new home and sketch in the major furniture pieces.
❏ To save time on moving day, move your boxes from the basement, upstairs, or attic to the main floor prior to the move date. Consider carrying items from the back yard to the front yard or garage ahead of time.
❏ Keep your phone connected through moving day to stay in touch with friends, family and the moving company.

Breath of fresh air
W
hen it comes to cleaning products, cleanliness and toxicity have become synonymous, but today’s classic home care products have finally been exposed for what they are – dangerous. Traditional cleaners boast health and cleanliness when in reality they have been blamed for contributing to a slew of health problems while destroying “good bacteria” and making us more susceptible to illness.
It’s time to change the way we clean our homes. Harsh chemicals and dangerous fumes impact our overall health, and there are many natural solutions that can take care of whatever ails the cleanliness of your home. Here are some tips to help bring natural solutions to your home: • According to a survey, 71 per cent of the population living with smokers is concerned about indoor air pollutants caused by cigarettes
– instead of adding more by spraying air fresheners and chemical deodorizers, try using baking soda boxes in strategic locations. • When polled, 45 per cent of pet owners are concerned about how their furry friends can negatively affect air quality. While vacuuming regularly helps, customizable air filters like the Bionaire AER1 System can improve and reduce problematic odors quickly and safely without having to make Fido spend the night outside. • If you’re an at-home chef who enjoys experimenting in the kitchen, you know it is sometimes challenging to keep the colourful aroma where it belongs. Essential oils and diffusers help to neutralize overwhelming scents and replace them with inviting ones like cinnamon or lavender. More information is available online at www.bioanirecanada.com. NC

Cherry, Almond and Wild Rice
Stuffed Pork Loin
This impressive dish features juicy pork tenderloin filled with dried cherries, hearty wild rice, herbs and roasted almonds. It’s sure to be the star of the dinner table! 6-8 servings ingredients: 2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil 1 small yellow onion, diced 6 oz (170 g) Italian sausage, removed from casing 2 cloves garlic, minced ¼ cup (50 mL) chopped parsley 1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped fresh thyme 1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped fresh rosemary ⅓ cup (75 mL) coarsely chopped dried cherries ½ cup (125 mL) coarsely chopped roasted almonds 1 cup (250 mL) cooked wild rice Salt and pepper to taste 2 ½ pound (1.1 kgs) boneless pork loin, filleted Kitchen twine for wrapping Salt and pepper for topping
directions: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm olive oil. Add onions and sauté until translucent, about three to five minutes. Add sausage and garlic and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and add parsley, thyme, rosemary, dried cherries and almonds. Stir in wild rice; add salt and pepper to taste. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Spread filleted pork loin out on a clean work surface. Top pork loin with prepared stuffing from edge to edge. Starting from the short side, roll pork loin and stuffing into a spiral. Tie roll together with heavy-duty kitchen string in the centre and at the two ends of roast to prevent it from unrolling in the oven. Place roast on a rack in a shallow roasting pan and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Insert an oven-safe meat thermometer into the centre of the roast and cook for one hour. Reduce heat to 325°F (160°C) and continue to cook for another 45 to 60 minutes. Remove roast from the oven once the meat thermometer reaches 160°F (71°C). Allow meat to rest in the pan, loosely covered with foil for 20 to 30 minutes. NC

Make do a Month B y Gai l Vaz -Ox lade
I
f there’s any month when you’re most likely to wonder if all the bills will get paid it’s usually January. After the feverish rush of the holidays and all the unexpected expenses that popped up, no doubt things will be a little tight. Add the extra cost of heating and the jump in “fresh” food prices and you’ll be looking for ways to trim back.
finances
But what if you have family or friends whose birthday falls in January. You’ll have to buy something. No you don’t. You can give something of yourself instead of something purchased. Make their favorite cookies, offer to cook them a meal or a bunch of meals for the freezer for those extra busy workdays, or create a coupon for three nights of free babysitting. Maybe you’re a computer genius and can offer to do maintenance or repairs. Perhaps you’re a mechanic and can offer a tune-up. Substitute your energy for spending money. After the buzz of the holidays you’ll no doubt be happy to stay home for the first couple of weeks. Then you may start feeling itchy. You’ve got to get out. You can feel the walls closing in. Time to hit that great new restaurant that just opened up, or head out to the clubs. Wait a minute. This is Make Do Month.
Enter Make Do Month. This is the month when you stretch everything a little farther so you spend a lot less. If you get invited to a party, you don’t rush out and buy something new, you get creative and shop your closet. And if you need a little something different, you shop a friend’s closet. Or hold a clothing exchange. What you don’t do is spend money. When the weather is warm, it’s easy to do lots of free things. When it’s cold, entertainment gets more expensive. Sure there’s that great movie you’d love to take the family to for a night out of the house. For a family of four, you’re probably looking at $100 or more with popcorn and drinks. Recycle a movie you already own or do a movie swap with friends, add some home-made popcorn and a 12pack of pop and you can probably do it for $10. Now that’s making do. January is also a good month to experiment with a new routine as you make do. If you’re used to buying coffee every day, brew your own at home or work and save big-time. If you regularly go out for lunch, pack one from home for four out of every five days and not only will you drop those holiday pounds, you’ll be able to pay off that holiday debt.
Call up a couple of friend and throw a pot-luck game night instead. See if you can do it at their house this time. Start a tradition of once a month game or poker nights and rotate from one friend’s home to another. No one says you can’t have fun in Make Do Month. You just can’t spend gobs of money. Make Do Month is a conscious decision to stretch every dollar as far as it’ll go. Try it and see if just becoming conscious save you money. I’ll bet your pleasantly surprised.

TO PACK, OR NOT TO PACK … By Dan Hopkins
rentershelp
‌
Moving is a very personal thing and people who hire moving companies ask for varying levels of service.
Take packing, for example. Some clients want to pack their own items, while others prefer a turn key solution where the mover does it all. There are, of course, advantages to each approach, so it is important to choose what’s best for you. The Professional Packer Most who choose to pack themselves do so because it saves money on the move. That is true only if the items make it from Point A to Point B in one piece. Moving companies will not be responsible for items damaged because of poor packing. The most critical element in packing is taking into consideration how far and long the items will remain in the boxes and containers during transit. Consumers often underestimate just how much jostling their items will endure on the various highways and other roadways on their trip to your new home or business. Accessories such as lamps may seem to be packed
well, but may shift inside the carton and break or chip as a result. Professional packers have the experience to know exactly what is best for various categories of items, depending on the size and distance of the move, and they pack accordingly. They can also provide excellent advice on how to mark your boxes for ease of unpacking, and on the items to pack last and unpack first. Having your mover do the packing offers you the peace of mind in knowing that if the unexpected happens, your possessions will be repaired or replaced.
rentershelp The DIY Packer At Two Men and a Truck, trained packing professionals help clients with as much or as little of the packing and unpacking as required, and we sell a full range of packing supplies. Those who are willing and capable of packing themselves need to consider the proper materials and containers that will help to ensure a successful move. There are also significant considerations to keep in mind, such as not packing explosive or flammable items in the general boxes. Although you can obtain boxes from places like grocery stores, check with your mover, who may sell proper packing materials that will save you work and worry.
• • • • •
Some of the items you will need are tape dispensers, newsprint, markers, pads and bubble wrap – and there are many sizes and strengths of boxes available. There is a 1.5 cubic-foot box that is often referred to as a book or record box. It’s fairly small and is designed to hold small, heavy items like food jars or cans, flatware, CDs, etc. The next size up is a lamp or lampshade box, which is 3 cubic feet in size. The sizes go up from there, to 4.5 and 6 cubic feet for lighter objects such as pillows and stuffed animals. These are just some of the moving materials that are available today. Whether you choose to pack your own items or have your mover do it, be sure you choose a company with a solid track record for providing topnotch service.

5 ways
to survive on a student budget
G
etting an education is the best way to get a head start in the job market. You could earn $7,200 more per year with a college diploma, or $23,000 more per year with a bachelor’s degree, compared to a high school graduate. Find out how to plan and pay for school on the web site, CanLearn.ca/ explore. Going to school is expensive, but government loans and grants can help; combined with a practical budget, getting a degree or diploma can be affordable. Sticking to a budget is possible with a lot of practice and a little creativity. Try out these money-saving tips from real students across Canada: • Apply for scholarships and bursaries. Studentawards.com, and other web sites, offer many scholarship opportunities. You could get hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars every year to support your education.
• Make your own meals. There are four keys to shopping for cheap food: avoid brand names, buy in bulk, watch for sales, and don’t be afraid to clip coupons. • Walk or bike to get around. It will definitely save you a chunk of change. For longer trips try carpooling or finding a ride-share. • Look good on a budget. Hairdressing and esthetic schools usually offer free services and discounted rates on practice days. You could also buy a less expensive electric rechargeable razor, instead of throwing away disposables. • Keep yourself entertained for less. Borrow free DVDs from the library, or go to the theatre on cheap night. Try soaking up some culture at a museum; most offer a discount day or free admission. Every little bit counts. NC

Gently fold in trail mix and spoon into baking pan. Smooth the surface. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 15 minutes and turn out onto a cutting board. Let them cool completely. When cool, cut into 10 bars. Spread the top of each bar with a little Nutella and pair with a glass of milk and a bowl of fruit for a delicious breakfast. Signature trail mix is made up of equal parts of sunflower seed, raisins, cashews and pumpkin seeds. Have you got more ideas for how to champion breakfast? Visit Facebook. com/TheBreakfastTable. NC

AuroraMAX is a public engagement project between the University of Calgary, the City of Yellowknife, Astronomy North, and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA). “Our objective is to share the science and the splendour of nature’s greatest light show with the public, and to use the unique appeal of the aurora to show people that science is beautiful,” says Ruth Ann Chicoine, the CSA’s national project manager for AuroraMAX.“We hope that the majesty of the Northern Lights will help spark an interest in the science behind the phenomenon, and encourage Canadians, especially young Canadians.” In addition to broadcasting the Northern Lights live (including an option for a high-definition feed), the AuroraMAX web site explains the science behind the phenomenon, offers tips for seeing and photographing auroras, and highlights Canadian research on the Sun-Earth relationship. If the live shows are too late for your little ones, it’s easy to download a video replay from the night before. AuroraMAX also issues alerts on Facebook (www.facebook. com/AuroraMAX) and Twitter (@AuroraMAX) when the aurora might be visible in more southerly regions of the country.
(416)
Every night once the sun sets below the horizon, the AuroraMAX online observatory broadcasts Canada’s aurora live from an observatory near Yellowknife, NWT.
The Magic behind the Mystery The Northern Lights occur when charged particles (electrons and protons) collide with gases in Earth’s atmosphere, producing the tiny flashes of light that make up the “dance” of the aurora. In the Northern Hemisphere, the lights are known as aurora borealis or Northern Lights, while in the Southern Hemisphere they are called aurora australis or Southern Lights.
784-3311
I
f you’ve never had the jaw-dropping experience of seeing the Northern Lights for yourself, get ready to cross another item off your “bucket list.”
Y
The launch of AuroraMAX coincides with the beginning of aurora season in Northern Canada, which generally starts in late August and ends in May. Aurora enthusiasts can follow AuroraMAX through solar maximum, the most active period of the Sun’s 11year cycle, which should produce more frequent and intense auroras on Earth. Solar maximum is currently expected in 2013. Take a look tonight at www.asc-csa. gc.ca/auroramax. NC

Resolve to
get organized
in 2013 After the big glittery ball has dropped and resolutions are made, the difficult part begins. To achieve success, observers suggest we break down our resolutions into smaller, more feasible goals. Think short-term. For example, it is well-known that every year, one of the most popular resolutions is to become more organized. This can sometimes feel overwhelming, so here are some simple solutions from The Home Depot Canada to clear and conquer the clutter in your home: Organize your front foyer This space sets the tone for first impressions. Think about stashing useful items such as gloves, hats, scarves and pet supplies in decorative fabric bins. These are easy to label, and make it easy to find items with just a glance. If you do not have a closet in your entry way, invest in a simple shelved console table where you can store your organized items for easy access. A multi-purpose shelf with mounted hooks for sweaters, jackets and coats is essential to keeping your no closet foyer pristine.

❑ De-clutter your kitchen pantry A functional pantry is the key to a functional kitchen. Creating a working pantry can be a big challenge depending on your cooking routine and habits. Take measurements of your space and purchase wire baskets or locking plastic containers to categorize your various ingredients according to your needs. Hang bins inside of the pantry door for popular foods. Not only will this be a time saver, but will also optimize your pantry space. Conquer your bedroom closet Bedroom closets often fall victim to being a dumping ground for items without a ‘home’. As you de-clutter, sort items into the following categories: keep, donate, recycle and trash. For the items you do keep, the closet configurator is not only a simple solution, but also an affordable one. With so many options available for a variety of sized spaces, adjustable shelving systems will accommodate your changing needs. By following these simple suggestions you will not only have the tools for organizational success but also be able to check off that New Year’s resolution without the guilt of past years. More tips on home organization are available online at www.homedepot. ca or at a store in your neighbourhood. NC

Baked Mushroom
Topped Brie
Prepare and chill the mushroom topping to have on hand for spur of the moment entertaining. Baking and serving on oven-proof platter keeps the cheese warm while eating.
DireCtions: Finely chop mushrooms, onions, walnuts and garlic, thyme, rosemary and pepper in food processor.
PreParation time: 7 minutes Cooking time: 20 minutes Chilling time: 30 minutes makes 12 servings
At serving time slice the wheel of Brie in half horizontally and place cut side up on oven-proof serving plate or baking pan. Spoon the topping evenly on cut surfaces of Brie. Bake in 350ºF/180 ºC oven for about eight to 10 minutes or until cheese is beginning to melt. Sprinkle parsley or chives on top to garnish if desired. Serve with thinly sliced whole wheat baguette or plain crackers.
½ lb (250 g) fresh sliced mushrooms (white or crimini) ½ cup (125 mL) coarsely chopped onions ¼ cup (50 mL) finely chopped walnuts 1 large clove garlic, sliced ½ tsp (2 mL) Each dried thyme, rosemary and pepper 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil 1 tbsp (15 mL) balsamic vinegar 1 (200g) wheel cold Brie cheese 2 tbsp (25 mL) finely minced fresh parsley or chives (optional)
Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir mushroom mixture for five to seven minutes or until all liquid has evaporated. Stir in vinegar. Cook one to two minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature; cover and chill.
Variation: To barbecue, place cheese on pre-soaked cedar plank and barbecue, covered over medium–high heat for eight to ten minutes. tip: For smaller groups, bake and top one half of the cheese at a time; wrap the other half securely in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
