3. Hearing the music of Cape Breton Island’s soul Music is the heart and soul of Cape Breton Island. I remember the first time I visited, in 1998, I was surprised to learn that a well-known Canadian musician seemed to hail from almost every hamlet or village, and many of them fiddlers.

The music of Cape Breton is steeped in the Celtic tradition of fiddlers, step dancers and the Ceilidh (kay-lee) – which is Gaelic for a music infused party or gathering.

4. Enjoying the island’s crowning glory The Cabot Trail and Cape Breton Highlands National Park are the crowning glory of Nova Scotia. The winding drive through this ruggedly beautiful region is one of the most scenic in Canada. Or anywhere. It all starts at about Cheticamp and runs around the top of the island, down to Ingonish. Dramatic coastlines, thickly forested mountains, charming fishing villages, and more opportunities for outdoor adventure than you could fit into one vacation.

I chose whale watching. From Pleasant Bay, I went out onto the ocean in a zodiac with Capt. Mark’s Whale and Sea Cruise. A few miles out, we spotted a school of pilot whales and for a glorious time were surrounded by them They swam and jumped around us, just a few feet from the small boat, seemingly aware that we were entranced. As I watched their movements, like liquid grace, I felt uplifted and joyful. I was for a time at one with them in the water. It was a thrilling experience. Here it is, with music from Troy MacGillivray.

Financial Goals: Keep It Simple, Stupid

Courtesy: www.financialuproar.com

Ah, the week between Christmas and New Year’s. The best week of the year, assuming you don’t like getting anything done. And if you don’t like gettin’ crap done, what’s wrong with you? Oh, laziness. Of course.

The blog world is similar. Many writers take the whole week off, justifying it by saying nobody’s going to read their stuff anyway. Even YOUR BOY Nelly took three days off, a long-ass time for this workaholic. Don’t worry, I was still doing stuff behind the scenes.

Other bloggers (personal finance ones, especially) decide that this week is a perfect time to reflect on 2016 and come up with some financial goals for 2017.

These can include anything from tackling a mountain of debt to becoming slightly richer, with everything in between. Normally these will also include blogging goals, because, hey, who doesn’t like to see the sausage

These groups often have trouble obtaining adequate funding and must also compete for expert resources.

Option 2 – Fully outsourced: Another possibility is to outsource most or all security functions to a third party, although accountability must remain with the company. This option can be valuable if a trusted partnership can be established. It is also useful if substantially all assets are cloud-based.

MB Business Magazine: How is your television channel helping people in the Trucking industry on a daily basis?

Neha Khosla: One of the biggest ways we help people in the industry is by giving technical advice for all those that are involved.

This ranges from driving instructions and training for drivers, to segments involving the actual trucks and its mechanical parts. We also have a website and an app for drivers which have many articles and tips on them.

The website and app also help drivers face and tackle day to day issues that are our experienced team of people in the industry help them with.

MB Business Magazine: How was the start of Trucking TV Television when you ďŹ rst aired the channel and how were you able to break out into the public eye?

time I had no idea what a big deal this strike was going to be and how fortunate we were to be the channel to break the story. Within half an hour all the large channels such as CP24 had arrived at the scene and I had started getting calls from their offices asking me to give the footage of the starting of the strike and events of the day.

For the next three days we heavily covered the events of the truck drivers’ strike and we were the go to channel for all news concerning the strike. Those three days truly were the start and boost that Trucking TV Television needed to become a success. After the strike was over the truck drivers called us to a local temple and thanked us for our help during the entire strike and for getting their message out to the public. We had officially become known in the industry after that event.

Baldeep Channi: When we first started the channel it took a couple of months to get the production and technical details set up. Once we

MB Business Magazine: Having established yourself as a part of Canadian Media what is your advice for the next generations and how can they become a part of the media?

Baldeep Channi: I truly believe that in the Canadian media there is a lot of space for conceptualized channels. The future generations should try and focus on creating something new that stands out from the norm and something that will intrigue people. When I came to this country I was told that I would not be able to compete with the larger sharks in the media industry but I never got scared or let this stop me from pursuing me dream and passion. My message is that people should do the same thing and not feel intimidated and should always believe they can do it if they have the right intentions and the right idea.
