Remaining reduction initiatives will be quantified over the next 18 to 24 months.

“With CleanBC, British Columbia is rising to the challenge of climate change,” Premier Horgan said. “Every year, we’re seeing the unprecedented wildfires and floods that hurt so many people, communities and businesses. We need to begin changing how we live, work and commute to put B.C. on a cleaner, more sustainable path.”

“The low-carbon economy we build together will bring opportunities and jobs throughout the province, so people can live and work with greater security in the communities they call home,” said Premier John Horgan.

“By moving to clean, renewable energy – like our abundant supply of B.C. electricity – we can power our growing economy and make life “CleanBC will position our province better and more affordable for British for success as the world transitions to low-carbon solutions,” said Andrew Columbians.”

Canada’s rules are changing: Temporary and permanent resident applicants from Asia, Asia Pacific and the Americas will soon need to give their biometrics

C

anada is expanding its biometrics collection program.

Starting December 31, 2018, nationals from countries in Asia, Asia Pacific and the Americas will need to give their fingerprints and a photo (biometrics) when applying for a Canadian visitor visa, study or work permit, or for permanent residence.

This same requirement has applied to nationals from countries in Europe, the Middle East and Africa since July 31, 2018, and to temporary resident applicants from 29 countries and 1 territory since 2013.

Collecting biometrics provides many benefits: it helps stop those who pose a risk to the safety and security of Canadians from entering the country, while also helping officials better manage applicants’ identities, facilitating application processing and simplifying entry for travellers with legitimate identities.

Share the information: People expecting family and friends from overseas should be aware of the changes so they can make sure their visitors are prepared. Help us spread the word by sharing this information with your readers.

• Applicants who use the services of an immigration consultant or a travel agent to complete their application will still need to go in person to give their biometrics.

• Applicants can give their biometrics at: o any Visa Application Centre (VAC), provided they can legally enter the country the VAC is located in. o a U.S. Application Support Center (ASCs) or VAC, provided they are already legally in the U.S. There are 135 ASCs in the U.S. and U.S. territories and 2 VACs (New York City and Los Angeles).

To note, Canada is doing everything it can to make the process as smooth as possible. For example: • Those applying for a visitor visa, study or work permit only have to give biometrics once every 10 years, which greatly facilitates those who make repeat visits to Canada.

Quick tips for those expecting family • We are also expanding our or friends from overseas worldwide network of VACs, and • Biometrics adds a new step increasing capacity at existing VACs, in the application process.

Along with the cake pops, posters with personal messages of gratitude were delivered to communicate a special thanks to the paramedics, emergency room staff and firefighter for taking on a these tough jobs and

still smiling. Students of Abbotsford School District #34 understand that kindness is a universal language.

Students do and can make a difference! A special thanks to our first responders, Justin, Brian, Craig, and Rosalene who helped coordinate the Eugene Reimer Middle Random Act of Kindness Project.

Sincerely, Mrs. Sidhu and the Rural Ravens

There can be some sort of finality between what someone else expects of you and what you are prepared to give. It could also be that you decide the only way you can change things is to stand your ground, even if that means rebelling. This could mean the end of something that has existed one way or another since 2010.

It will become difficult to ascertain what somebody else thinks, even though much may have been discussed from 1st December. They can now become more secretive until early January. This could have already occurred during November.

You can experience having to respond to them rather than making your own choices.

Activity and much interaction with others will begin to pick up again this week and carry through to early January. It will also be possible to get a clearer idea of either what they think about you or the support they are prepared to give after perhaps having some doubts since early December. Be clear about expected commitments.

Normal routines have likely been interrupted from the beginning of December. From now to early January you need to be mindful of getting some order in place, mainly with the little things. If you don’t, they will get out of hand in a big way. It can be time for you to get back to an exercise routine if you have been slack of late.

Social activity will step up a notch or two between now and Christmas but will still continue to a large degree to early January.

This is certainly a good time to have a break and go on a holiday. Even a holiday at home would be good for restoring some sort of balance to things or just to get away from normal routine and relax.

You can move on from distractions that have likely plagued you since early December and concentrate on getting things in place to early January. You could have the opportunity to finish something off that you began during November. This can have something to do with home and family as much as your own desires.

Finalise money matters at the start of the week because after that you will become very busy until early January. There can be many distractions. It will be the little things that will trip you up, if you are not careful.

This is the beginning of learning not to take on too much at once as this will be a tendency all of next year.

You have had the opportunity to settle your mind on things since early December. Now you will need to focus on finances again to early January. This occurred previously in November. You can easily spend more than you intend, so keep a check, especially with credit cards, as you will be encouraged to enjoy yourself.

Mercury moves back into your sign for its second stay this year until 5th January. It was here the first time in November. This can allow you to make final decisions or become more comfortable in your own mind about what is right for you. There will be a sense that life has plenty to offer with this new 12 year cycle that has started.

You could feel more like getting away from it all than anything else from now to early January. It won’t be entirely possible as you also have social cycles operating.

Your energy level will not be the greatest so make sure you do find time to get sufficient rest in between activities. Be sure responsibilities get shared around.

You need to move on from more serious matters that have likely required attention since early December and catch up with friends, accept invitations to group activities up to early January. This is also a good time to give consideration to important priorities over the next year and shore up something from November.

Be mindful about commitments you take on from now to early January. There could be a lot more attached to them than is obvious to begin with. You could be more certain in your mind about something you first considered during November. You are in a better position now to be sure of the action you need take to get things going.

Letter to the Editor Statistics Canada, in its report Homicide in Canada, 2017, confirmed gang violence drove our nations homicide rate to its highest point in almost a decade.

StatsCan also confirmed British Columbia gangs are responsible for much of that rise, primarily in Abbotsford, Surrey and Vancouver.

“With 2.45 homicides per 100,000 population, the homicide rate in British Columbia was up 32%, making it the province’s highest rate since 2009. This increase occurred in both urban and rural areas and can be partly explained by more gang- and firearm-related homicides,” the report says.

Yet while gang shootings rise unabated here in British Columbia, Trudeau’s Liberal government stripped funding from one of BC’s most effective gang interdiction programs, Abbotsford’s In It Together, whose mission is to disrupt and interrupt the flow of young people into organized crime or gangs.

Initial 5-year funding for the program came from the Ministry of Public Safety in 2013.

Despite In It Together’s success at diverting over 1,500 young people out of violent criminal gangs and thereby saving their lives, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale’s office refused to renew the program’s funding and the MP for Mission-Matsqui-Fraser Canyon said nothing about it.

Actor Anushka Sharma says her debut film Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, which clocks 10 years on Wednesday, has a special place in her heart as she got to work with people who had faith in her. The actor said she is close to producer Aditya Chopra and her co-star Shah Rukh Khan even today.“Adi (Aditya Chopra, director) used to say that ‘we have taken you because you can stand on your own against anyone’.

Yashji (Yash Chopra) had also said the same. For a young person like me to hear that was a huge confidence booster,” Anushka said. “I got to work with people who were very nice and generous to me. I share a beautiful equation with all of them even now. I am blessed to be working on this film. It changed my life. It is something that is going to be the most special thing I have done,” she added.

A web show is no less than a film : Ali Fazal Working in American TV show Bollywood Hero to sharing screen space with Oscarwinning veteran actress Judi Dench in the British-American film Victoria & Abdul, making a mark in Bollywood in the beginning of his career with his presence in the National Awardwinning film 3 Idiots to becoming a part of web series “Mirzapur”, actor Ali Fazal has successfully dabbled in different realms of the entertainment world.The actor says the entertainment industry going through a positive transformation where the lines between web series and feature films are blurring to celebrate good stories over screen size.“I think this transformation is a

natural progression that was bound to happen. Now, a web show is no less than a film.

This is the same phase Hollywood went through five years ago when, whether it was OTT (over-the-top) platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime or even television, they offered their audience… great content.

That time, cinema faced a challenge…“Now, globally, the youth is smart enough to consume content on their smartphones, smart TV and the demand for content is increasing,” added the Fukrey actor.

I am very excited for my special appearance : Kiara Advani Kiara Advani is excited about her special appearance in Abhishek Varman's period drama Kalank. Kiara interacted with the media. On her upcoming projects, she said: "I am very excited for my special appearance in 'Kalank' since it's a huge film and it's the first time I am doing something in the period space. I have finished shooting for that."Kiara said she has started shooting for Kabir Singh and Good News. "I have just begun shoot for both Kabir Singh and Good News simultaneously and it's going very well. We are excited to continue the shoot and make a really good movie for the audience so, it has been a busy month," said the Lust Stories actress.On Kabir Singh, in which she stars with Shahid Kapoor, Kiara said: "We have just wrapped up the December schedule of the film and we will again start shooting for the film in the first week of January. So, after

Actor Sunil Grover, who will be next seen in Ali Abbas Zafar’s directorial Bharat, has said that he has not seen a disciplined human being and artiste like Salman Khan in the film industry.

Sunil, who is sharing screen space with Salman for the first time in “Bharat”, said: “I haven’t seen a disciplined human being and artiste like him (Salman).

He does so much work at one time. He does shoots for his current film and at the same time, he listens to scripts which he is going to do in year 2032.

“He is a very busy artiste. He does television, travelling and also looks after his ‘Being spends two hours at the gym. but on the third day again, I saw Human’ charitable organisation. Few days back, I saw that he him exercising. I feel he is made Apart from that, every day he fractured his rib while exercising of some other soil.”

Go Goa Gone sequel is better than the first film : Vir Das Actor-comedian Vir Das believes the sequel to his 2013 hit zombie comedy Go Goa Gone is going to be better and crazier than the original. The film, which also featured Kunal Kemmu, Anand Tiwari and Saif Ali Khan, will be once again helmed by director duo Raj Nidimoru, and Krishna DK. “We just had a meeting. It was wonderful. We all kind of realised ‘I missed you a lot in the last four years now let’s go and make this movie’. None of us expected ‘Go Goa Gone’ to be the cult film that it turned out to be. We were just making a film with passion and we hoped that somebody would get it and somebody would watch it,” he

said.“The fact that Saif would end up campaigning the film or that it would get the kind of audience it did, we didn’t expect any of that. But now the pressure is definitely there to make a good film. It has to be just as crazy as the first one. So we had a meeting with the directors and I can confidently tell you that it’s better than the first film,” Vir siad.The film is expected to go on floors in February. Currently, Vir is filming for his first American TV series in Prague. The ABC series titled Whiskey Cavalier, is produced by Warner Brothers.The actor says he was roped in for the series after the success of his first Netflix comedy special Abroad Understanding.

Abbotsford Stories Project Launched to Highlight Abbotsford’s Homelessness Prevention and Response System

T

he City of Abbotsford has released a series of videos that highlight the City’s Coordinated Intake and Referral (CIR) Program as part of the ongoing work of the Abbotsford Homelessness Prevention and Response System, announced Mayor Henry Braun today.

The video launch took place at the University of the Fraser Valley with partner organizations and members of the public in attendance.

Background In May 2015, the City of Abbotsford received $400,989 in funding from Service Canada towards the development of a Coordinated Intake and Referral (CIR) model to provide individuals who are experiencing homelessness or who are at risk of homelessness to access housing and health supports. The CIR was developed by a research and design team comprised of local housing and service providers, Fraser Health Authority, BC Housing, Ministry of Social Development-Poverty Reduction, and the City of Abbotsford.

The purpose of the Abbotsford Stories project is to provide the following: Document the collaborative planning process and stakeholder perspectives related to the research, design and implementation process; Provide information regarding the Abbotsford Homelessness Prevention

Ms. Jones, a potential buyer, drives by your soon as a potential buyer sees your home, home prior to viewing it with her Real Es- they will begin creating an emotional connectate Professional. The red brick, the large tion, be that good or bad, with your home.

A buyer begins to form a picture in their minds.

Could I live here? Can I maintain my current lifestyle in this home? How much work do I have to do? After viewing a home that looks cared for, on the outside, they will want to move inside.

Be sure to consider the following areas when enhancing your curb appeal.

Paint

Hose down sidewalks and driveways. Clear any clutter. Store any toys, sporting equipment or bicycles, neatly in the garage or basement. Remove stray weeds from adjoining lawn areas.

Eavestrough If possible hose them down, along with the siding and sidewalks. Remove any leaves or debris. If they're damaged or loose, repair them.

Fences/siding/exterior Complete any repairs to these areas. A fence that looks like it will blow over the in the next strong wind, leaves a bad impression.

Be sure to hose down these areas, prior to viewing.

Cracked/uneven foundation

Chipped or peeling paint Have this area repaired. A buyer is less likely to purchase your home if they will be hit with foundation repairs.

However, she can’t avoid noticing the patchy lawn, missing shingles on the roof, the chipped window frames, soiled siding, and kids’ bicycles and wagons stacked three-deep on the side of the garage. The front door is a foul shade of violet. Now she knows why that shot never made it into the properties listing pictorial.

She shakes her head and drives away, without even getting out of her car.

Upgrade any worn or rusted lighting. Warm lighting around your home’s exterior creates an inviting appearance. Even a smaller home can appear cozy with the correct lighting.

Finishing touches Put out a new, inexpensive welcome doormat. Clean any outdoor furniture and replace old and worn cushions. If you have a pet that lives in the backyard, be sure to advise your Real Estate Professional in advance. Even better, arrange for pet boarding when showing your home.

Legal Representation & Real Estate Lawyers

If your car needs repair, you take it to a mechanic. If your teeth need attention, you visit your dentist. Likewise, when you are selling a home, legal representation can protect your investment.

Look for a lawyer experienced in real estate transactions. He or she can protect your interests and can ensure that the numerous details of your real estate transaction are h a n d l e d c o rrectly. In short, a lawyer’s role in acting for you, the seller, is to ensure you get what you bargain for, at the agreed price, under the agreed terms.

When it comes to selling a home, a lawyer will complete the following services:

Act as escrow agent to hold a down payment, binder or money deposit.

Evaluate offers from potential buyers. Ensure that the contract is legal, valid and that you understand the conditions of the agreement.

Host and handle the closing.

Evaluate financial arrangements.

Ensure that the adjustments are properly calculated and that the purchase monies have been properly disbursed.

Advise you on the tax and estate issues of the sale of the home.

The sale of your home is a precise and legal procedure that must be accurately completed to protect your rights and profits. Knowing how to handle all of these details means the difference of thousands of dollars in your pocket.

Low Cost Ways to Improve Your Home's Interior When it comes to the sale of your home, it is the little things that can go a long way to increasing the price you will receive. Most buyers respond positively to a clean, clutter-free home that is in good condition. The more effort you put into the appearance of your home, the more likely you’ll receive greater activity, multiple offers and possibly generating a higher profit.

Over time, we become accustomed to our homes, often overlooking the eyesores and the list of honey-do’s that were never completed. Clutter accumulates.

We think nothing of the low light and the pale and cracked paint.

Create space.

Ensure that all doors, cabinets and drawers open all the way without sticking or bumping into anything.

Clean out the entrance hall closet.

Move oversized furniture to a storage facility or garage. Entrances to all rooms should have an open flow.

Make the most of your views.

Put a screen or a basket of flowers n front of a fireplace if not in use.

Make sure there is enough room for visitors to view out the winCreate warmth and coziness in the living dows. Remove any clutter around room, with a crackling fire. Put a pair of wine window areas.

The rule is “less is better.” Clean.

Organize. Discard. Donate. Pack all that you can. Clean out closets and storage areas.

Donate old clothes and furniture to local charities. This will create a sense of greater space -- and mean less to move. What about all those books and magazines that you do not want? Perhaps you can donate them to a local library, hospital or charity.

Buyers respond less favorably to smells. Use cleansers of all kinds to make the home smell fresh, from carpet freshener to potpourri. Deodorize your cat’s litter box. Scoop litter daily.

Put cedar chips inside the closets. Use the sense of smell to your advantage by having fresh-baked cookies or other baked goods on the kitchen table.

Family photos.

Place family photos throughout your home especially in living room, bedrooms and family rooms.

After you have completed these inexpensive tasks, stand back. Ask a friend to view your home. Is it warm and inviting? Does it look comfortable and spacious? Is the aroma pleasant? When you create a positive, warm environment it is likely your buyer will feel the same way.
