Attorney general’s statement on investigation into StubHub ticket complaints for the FIFA World Cup 2026
Niki Sharma, Attorney General, has issued the following statement in response to Consumer Protection BC opening an investigation into complaints from people who purchased FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets from StubHub and did not receive them:
“Reports that people in B.C. purchased FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets from StubHub and did not receive them are deeply concerning. Major events like the FIFA World Cup 2026 should be an exciting experience and people should not have to worry about whether the tickets they purchased on StubHub will be honoured.
“I understand Consumer Protection BC, which independently administers B.C.’s Ticket Sales Act, is currently investigating these complaints to see if the law has been broken.
“While I cannot comment on this investigation directly, and StubHub has publicly committed to honouring its refund guarantees to fans, I want people to know they may have options available to them if they have been affected.
“The Ticket Sales Act promotes transparency and accountability in ticket sales and sets out when some one may be entitled to a refund. The act bans selling tickets that a business doesn’t actually own or control.
“I encourage people to contact Con sumer Protection BC to learn more about their rights, potential refund options or to file a complaint.
“People should feel confident when buying event tickets. B.C.’s Ticket Sales Act is helping protect con sumers, and Consumer Protection BC has taken enforcement action in the past, including reaching an agreement with StubHub to provide refunds to customers who did not receive clear and accurate informa tion about their tickets for the De cember 2024 Taylor Swift concerts in Vancouver.
“We will continue to monitor this situation to support consumers and better understand the issues being raised.”
People who bought tickets online or over the phone and did not receive them may have the option to cancel their purchase.

2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV: Canadas Top selling Hybrid SUV.
Auto review by Veeno Dewan.
The 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander is a compact SUV available in both gas engine and hybrid PHEV (Plug in Electric Hybrid) versions. It remains an outstanding SUV with a luxury interior and is the only compact SUV with third row seats in its class. The Outlander is Canada’s best-selling all-wheel drive plug-in hybrid electric SUV with an improved 72 kilometres range of Electric driving mode. The Outlander PHEV remains a goodlooking SUV with an aggressive front end and smart chrome trim.
2026 Exterior updates include a revised grille, redesigned front and rear bumpers, new 18” and 20” wheel designs and darker tint rear taillights. The Outlander PHEV sees a redesigned interior with better sound insulation, new materials, new colors, heated and ventilated front seats. There is also a revised centre console with more storage, new cupholders and phone charger storage. Also, standard is the superb sounding Dynamic Sound Yamaha audio systems with a 12.3” infotainment display screen. Engineering wise, there is a larger-capacity EV battery for increased All-electric driving range. Steering and ride quality are revised for a more confident and assured driving feel.
Power is provided courtesy of a specifically tuned, Atkinson cycle 2.4-litre
combustion engine paired to more powerful integrated twin electric motors. The front axle motor generates 114hp up from 80 hp. The rear motor offers 134 horsepower up from 90 hp previously. The rear motor features a new integrated motor control unit occupying a smaller space than before. The power is transmitted via Mitsubishi’s famed Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC), all-wheel drive system. At 20 kWh, the new battery’s storage capacity is larger than the previous versions 13.8 kWh system and delivers an electric - only driving range of 72 km, up from the 61 km the previous Outlander offered before.
In terms of charging, Mitsubishi uses the faster, more efficient PHEV: Level 3 charging system that can charge the Outlander PHEV to an 80 percent state of charge in just 38 minutes at 50 kW. Home charging is slower with 3.5-kW Level 2 charging, but that will still top up the Outlander in around 6.5 hours. The onboard gasoline engine takes about 90-95 minutes to charge the battery.
The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV starts $from 49,998 to $63,048 plus $2,125 Freight & PDI. The ES version as standard arrives with the added bonus of a sliding third row rear bench for a total of seven seats- a huge advantage over other PHEV SUVs.

20- inch wheels, while the GT Edition brings additional safety systems and Bose premium audio. The fully loaded range topping GT-Premium, S-AWC, and Special Edition Noir versions add extra features, upscale luxurious quilted semi-aniline leather seats, diamond stitched trim and a front-seat massage function and much more. There is also the availability of a nice two-tone roof option on top trims.
Plus, every Outlander PHEV comes with the S-AWC AWD system as standard, as well as: 12.3inch configurable digital instrument panel, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, 120V/1,500W electrical outlet, comprehensive safety and driver assistance systems and a DC fastcharging port. Moving up, the SEL trim line has leather seats and
The Mitsubishi Outlander has a large comfortable high-quality cabin with impressive materials, ergonomic design, and finishing. There is excellent attention to detail and wonderful upscale touches. Rear cargo volume is rated at: 950 litres behind the second row. The rear seats also fold flat for more storage and versatility.
On the road, the new Outlander PHEV model drives very impressively thanks to its twin-motor AWD set up. Acceleration is fast and power delivery smooth. The transition from hybrid electric power to the gas engine is seamless. Seven drive modes can be selected depending on road surface conditions and driving style. Normal is the basic mode, Tarmac mode adds
more acceleration response and highcornering performance. Gravel, Mud and Snow mode deliver optimum performance on those slippery unstable terrains. Drivers also have modes such as Power mode, which delivers more urgent acceleration when needed, and Eco mode which emphasizes economy and green driving. Battery modes include an EV Select button, EV Priority mode, for just battery power, plus Battery Save mode, which maintains the current battery charge while driving. Meanwhile Battery Charge mode actually charges the battery as long as the gas engine is working whether on the move or stationery. Fuel economy is rated at 3.2Le/100km combined.
Not a lot of downsides. The major advantage is the increased EV range, luxurious cabin, fast battery charging and of course the standard adjustable third row seats that trumps its competitors. A number one buy for Canadian families everywhere. Highly recommended.
2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Priced from $49,998 to $63,048 plus $2,125 Freight & PD.,

Have fun, stay safe: Health tips for celebrating summer events
With summer festivals and events ramping up, Fraser Health is encouraging people who use substances to stay safe and look out for one another by accessing free, confidential drug checking services and following simple health tips.
Drug checking is an easy way to understand what may be in substances and reduce the risk of toxic drug poisoning and other drug-related harms. Services are quick and available to anyone who chooses to use them.
For the third year in a row, Fraser Health will offer pop-up drug checking at FVDED In The Park, a large music festival expected to attract thousands of people to Surrey’s Holland Park on July 3 and 4. A drugchecking and information tent will be located on the west side of the park, outside festival grounds, from 1:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. both days.
“Drug checking is an important harm reduction service that gives people
information about what may be in their drugs,” explains Dr. Emily Newhouse, Fraser Health Medical Director and Medical Health Officer, Population and Public Health.
“Whether you’re attending a festival, concert, camping trip or other summer event, if you’re using substances, we encourage people to get their drugs checked. The drug supply is unpredictable and can change over time, even from the same source.”
Summer festivals and outdoor events are a great way to connect and celebrate, but they can also present health
risks such as dehydration, heat-related illness and toxic drug poisoning. Fra -
ser Health encourages festivalgoers to take simple steps to stay well:
Stay hydrated and protect yourself from the heat by drinking water regularly, eating throughout the day, taking breaks to cool down, and using sunscreen, sunglasses and appropriate clothing. Non-alcoholic drinks are best to stay hydrated. If you are drinking alcohol, have a glass of water between drinks.
Plan ahead and look out for each other by attending with a buddy, knowing where to find water stations,
first aid services and exits, and arranging a safe ride home.
Look after your overall well-being by protecting your hearing, practising safer sex and consent, and bringing essentials such as medications, identification and comfortable footwear.
If you choose to use substances, reduce your risk by getting your drugs checked whenever possible. Drug checking services are free, confidential and available year-round throughout the Fraser Health region.
People are also encouraged to carry naloxone and know the signs of a toxic drug event.

Abbotsford Police Deploy New Radar Technology to Target Speeding Drivers
The Abbotsford Police Department has introduced advanced radar technology across the city to strengthen its efforts against speeding and improve road safety.
Known as Black Cat radar units, the devices have been strategically installed at various locations to monitor traffic behaviour and identify speeding trends. The system records vehicle speeds, traffic volumes, lane usage, and the times when vehicles travel through monitored areas, providing valuable data to help officers determine when and where speeding is most prevalent.
One location that drew particular attention was Simpson Road near
Millwright Drive after a local resident raised concerns about vehicles travelling at dangerously high speeds. In response, the Traffic Enforcement Unit deployed a Black Cat radar unit along the roadway.
Between May 31 and June 6, the radar analyzed approximately 28,000 vehicles using the route. The data revealed an average travelling speed of 58 km/h in a posted 50 km/h zone. More than 20 vehicles were recorded travelling at speeds exceeding 61 km/h, while one driver was caught travelling at nearly three times the legal speed limit.
Using the information gathered, officers launched Project Homer, a targeted enforcement initiative. During the twoday operation, police impounded nine vehicles for excessive speeding, with the average speed of the impounded vehicles exceeding 113 km/h. The fastest recorded vehicle was travelling at 126 km/h in the 50 km/h zone.
In addition to the vehicle impoundments, officers issued numerous traffic violation tickets during the enforcement campaign.
Abbotsford police say that, as of 2026, a total of 223 excessive speed-
ers have been removed from the city’s roads, underscoring the department’s continued commitment to improving public safety through data-driven traffic enforcement.
Adding languages to B.C. Newcomers’ Guide
The B.C. government is publishing the 2025 B.C Newcomers’ Guide in six languages in addition to English, to help people coming from other countries access essential information more easily.
Simplified Chinese, Punjabi, French, Spanish, Arabic and Tagalog will be included in the refreshed 2025 English printed edition and available for order now. The guide will be available for download online, or printed copies can be ordered at https://www. welcomebc.ca/start-your-life-in-b-c/ bc-newcomers-guide.
Expanding language access
With more language options, newcomers can more easily understand important information about health care, housing, education, employment, driver’s licences and other services that help them get settled in B.C.
Two hundred and forty-nine other languages are also available through online translation at https://www.
welcomebc.ca/start-your-life-in-b-c/ bc-newcomers-guide, including traditional Chinese, Dari, Farsi, Russian and Ukrainian.
Supporting newcomers, strengthening B.C.’s economy
The updated guide is part of government’s work to support newcomers, strengthen B.C.’s workforce, and grow the economy.
This includes improving international credential recognition, making systems more transparent and removing barriers that prevent skilled newcomers from accessing good jobs.
B.C. has a long history of welcoming newcomers. People from around the world help fill labour market gaps, grow B.C.’s workforce and strengthen the province’s economy. Newcomers are a valuable addition to communities throughout B.C. They share their cultures, experiences and perspectives, helping to grow British Columbia and making it an even more vibrant place to live.

Fraser Valley Classic Car Show raises over $20,000 for FVHCF
Held in Chilliwack on June 7, the Fraser Valley Classic Car Show raised an impressive $20,157.80 for Chilliwack General Hospital through the Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation.
The annual show, put on by the Fraser Valley British Motor Club, isn't just about cars. It's about making a difference and raising funds for the Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation.
Every year, the Fraser Valley British Motor Club raffles off a vehicle as a fundraiser. The car available for raffle this year this year was a restored 2004 Saab 9-3 Aero convertible. The winners of the car were Gary and Lynne O'Keefe.
"This event allows us to use our passion for classic cars as an attraction, thereby enabling the public the opportunity to donate to a worthwhile cause and help to strengthen health care in Chilliwack," says Susan Antak, Fraser Valley British Motor Club 2026 President.
"The Fraser Valley Classic Car Show is important because it supports local health care, celebrates our shared love of classic cars, and brings the
community together. What helps to make the Fraser Valley Classic Car Show special is the friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Visitors and exhibitors chat with car owners, swap stories and vote for their favourite vehicle. The show brings together car lovers, families, and community supporters for a great cause."
"We are grateful to the Fraser Valley British Motor Club for their
ongoing annual efforts to raise funds to support Chilliwack General Hospital," says FVHCF Executive Director Liz Harris. "They are making an incredible difference locally through sharing their love of cars and their passion for healthcare with the community."
The Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation remains dedicated to raising funds for essential equipment and programs endorsed by Fraser Health, serving the communities of Abbotsford, Mission, Chilliwack, Hope, Agassiz, and Harrison Hot Springs.

Canada’s Massive Language Class Cuts Are Reshaping Newcomer Futures in Abbotsford
“I feel sad because I don’t know where I will continue my English or where I will study.”
“Many of my classmates want to become healthcare assistants. With the cuts, they have nowhere to go. They don’t know what to do next.”
“I didn’t know the language, the history, the culture, or even how people live in Canada. Everything I know now, I learned in these classes.”
These are just a fraction of the students that have been impacted by Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada’s decision to cut funding to higher-level English classes for newcomers.
For more than three decades, Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC) has been a cornerstone of settlement across the country – helping newcomers build the language, confidence, and cultural understanding needed to begin their lives in Canada. Sweeping federal funding cuts have dismantled a critical portion of that system, leaving students, educators, and communities like Abbotsford facing an
uncertain future.
The Archway LINC program not only teaches English to newcomers in Canada but also gives them the opportunity to learn about Canadian housing, employment, healthcare, education, and how to navigate community services through virtual and in-person group classes.
At Archway, the impact of the cuts is immediate and profound.
Since April 2026, LINC programming is only offered at CLB Level 4 and below, known as Stage 1. Everything beyond, which
includes CLB Levels 5 to 8, known as Stage 2, has been eliminated due to funding cuts.
At CLB Level 4, learners can navigate basic daily life, but their
English is not strong enough for most employment, training programs, or higher education, leaving them stuck between survival and opportunity.
“Stage 2 – CLB 5 to 8 – is critical for learners to develop workplace communication, cultural navigation skills, and the confidence they need to contribute economically,” said Paula Mannington,
associate director of language services, learning and development at Archway.
A Bridge That’s Been Removed
LINC has never been just about grammar and vocabulary. It is a structured, long-term pathway that helps newcomers move from basic communication to full participation in Canadian life.
At CLB 4, learners can manage everyday tasks – visiting a doctor, going to the bank – but that’s where progress has now stopped.
“A person at CLB 4 can get by in daily life – but only survive,” Paula explained. “Opportunities like better jobs, trades training, or post-secondary education don’t open until around CLB 5 to 8.”
Across Canada, funding for all Stage 2 LINC classes has been cut, impacting thousands of learners across Canada.
Impact Felt by Students
For students, the cuts are not abstract policy decisions – they are deeply personal losses.

Province announces new classroom addition for Dormick Park Elementary
Students at Dormick Park Elementary will benefit from new classroom space as part of a provincial investment to help meet growing enrolment and provide high-quality learning environments across British Columbia.
The Ministry of Infrastructure announced today that Dormick Park Elementary has been approved to receive a new prefabricated classroom addition as part of a $49.5 million investment supporting school expansion projects in Abbotsford, Langley, Kelowna, North Vancouver and Burns Lake.
The new addition will create permanent learning spaces designed to the same building standards as traditionally constructed schools while allowing classrooms to be delivered more quickly through innovative prefabricated construction methods. The project will help address enrolment growth and ensure students continue to learn in safe, modern and welcoming environments.
"We are grateful to the Province for this investment in our growing community," said Stan Petersen, Chair of the Abbotsford Board of Education. "As enrolment continues to increase across our district, additional classroom space at Dormick Park Elementary will help ensure students have access to high-quality
learning environments that support their success today and into the future."
The project is part of the Province's ongoing commitment to creating additional student spaces in growing communities through innovative prefabricated construction. Since the program began in 2023, the Province has approved nearly $550 million for 44 projects that will create almost 9,000 new student spaces throughout British Columbia.

Attorney general’s, victim’s statements on protecting youth from online harms
Niki Sharma, Attorney General, and Chelsey Whittingham, mother of Maddy Croswell, have released the following statements about the need for further regulation of social media and AI chatbots to protect children online:
Whittingham said:
“Last September, my family and I suffered the worst trauma we could ever imagine when Maddy, my beautiful, deeply loved, vibrant 13-year-old daughter, lost her life after repeated exposure to harmful content that was pushed on her by a social media platform. We believed we were doing everything we could to protect our child. We had parental controls on her phone. We monitored screen time. We had open communication and a safe, loving home environment. We had no reason to believe the extent of what Maddy was being exposed to by the social media platform.
“What many parents may not realize is that parental controls alone are no match for powerful recommendation systems that can continuously expose vulnerable children to emotionally harmful and dangerous content without their families’ knowledge.
“I was encouraged to see the federal social media bill proposed earlier this month, but I would like to see more. Families cannot fight billion-dollar technology systems alone. Canada needs greater transparency around age verification, recommendation algorithms directed at children, regulation of self-harm and suicidepromoting content targeting minors, independent oversight of platforms and faster intervention mechanisms for youth.
“Both parents and children require education and guidance about what these social media platforms are and how to protect children from the harms that they can cause. These platforms are designed to maximize kids’ time and attention online. Parents should be educated on how to effectively set time limits, monitor children’s use and disable the collection of data and algorithmic recommendations that are targeted to maximizing time online, with no regard to the harms that can be caused. This requires a concerted effort by governments, educators, health-care providers and parents, and the cooperation of the tech companies. It is time for these companies to put people over profits.
“Maddy should be remembered for the beautiful life she lived, not the tragedy that took her from us. Maddy was a child who deserved protection. She was a loving daughter, sister, friend, a driven competitive gymnast and a successful student. She was kind, funny, intelligent and full of potential. She brought so much joy and light to the people around her.
“Maddy is so terribly loved and missed every single day by everyone who knew her. And if sharing her story can help protect even one child or spare one family from this kind of devastation, then her voice deserves to be heard. Children deserve to grow up in an online world designed to protect them, not exploit their vulnerability.”
Sharma said:
“A few weeks ago, I had the honour of meeting Chelsey and her family to hear Maddy Croswell’s story. I was both heartbroken and touched to learn about Maddy, the light she brought to people in her life and the tragic circumstances that led her to take her own life.
“In speaking with Chelsey, countless other parents and experts around B.C., it has become evident that we all share the goal of making sure Canada has laws in place that keep young kids safe online, limit their exposure to potentially harmful content and prevent them from engaging in violence against themselves or others.
“The federal government’s safe social media act (Bill C-34), tabled in
parliament earlier this month, is a promising step to addressing some of these harms, including through safe, age-appropriate design standards. However, Bill C-34 does leave some important areas unaddressed as well as uncertainty about how quickly these proposed regulations will be implemented, if they will work in the real world and how they will be enforced.
“I’m urgently seeking further clarification from Ottawa on when we can expect those guidelines to be drafted, approved and enacted, as well as how compliance with them will be enforced.
“I also continue to press for details about B.C.’s ask for a national threshold that clearly lays out when and how social media and AI chatbot companies should notify law enforcement when they become aware of credible threats of violence or selfharm on their platforms. Though Bill C-34 proposes establishing a digital safety commission to hold platforms accountable, it’s unclear when it will be established and what teeth it will actually have.
“While this work continues, I urge the federal government to meet with parents like Chelsey to make sure these new laws will work for families and for our children in the real world.
“We cannot afford to lose any more time in our efforts to stop companies from treating young minds as experimental playgrounds for profitmaximizing business practices. The lives of young people like Maddy Croswell, like Amanda Todd, Carson Cleland, Robin Janjua, the victims of Tumbler Ridge, and countless others, depend on it.”
4 simple home projects to refresh your space this summer
With the cost of living on the rise, many homeowners are skipping big renovations and opting for smaller, smarter updates instead. A few DIY refreshes can make your home feel brand new, create a great space for summer hosting and even add value, all without breaking the bank.
Something to note: Some major updates can affect your home's replacement value, so you should check with your insurer before starting. Some providers, such as Belairdirect, have apps that let you review
your coverage, get a quote in minutes and make updates easily, all from your phone.
That way, you can move forward with confidence and get straight to the fun part:
Give your space an instant facelift. You don’t need a full renovation to make your home feel fresh. A coat of paint or swapping outdated cabinet hardware, door handles and light fixtures can make a big visual impact and are easy to do yourself.
Set the mood with smarter lighting. Good lighting changes how a space looks and feels. You can get brighter, longer-lasting light at a lower energy cost by replacing incandescent bulbs with LEDs. Outside, solar pathway lights or string lights can instantly create a warm, inviting atmosphere, perfect for that casual summer get-together.
Create your own backyard retreat. Pick one area and make it feel like an extension of your home. You can add shade with a
canopy or umbrella, bring in comfortable seating, lay down an outdoor rug to define the space and add planters or flowers for a pop of colour.
Keep the cool air in. Check windows, doors and doorframes for small gaps that let cool air escape. Weatherstripping or caulking is a simple, affordable fix that helps keep your home comfortable yearround. A programmable thermostat can also help manage heating and cooling automatically when you're not home.

Reflections on a Maple Leaf
By Harman Singh Pandher Burnaby, BC
A bright maple leaf flies right by In a crisp autumn breeze, Standing out against a white sky, Whisking past lesser leaves.
Speeding over honking geese
Feeding on crumbs of bread, Sweeping through clean streets, Painting the whole town red.
Deceptively brittle and frayed, But unbreakable at its core, Refusing to whittle away, Eluding all rakes to soar.
Soaking up drops of rain With polite little sips, Storing ice water in its veins From its stem to its tips.
Lightly floating like a feather, Seemingly sewn from satin, Sacredly stitched together Into God’s northern pattern.
Its eleven points shine Like aurora borealis at night, Sent from heaven on a line, Levitating like a carefree kite.
As it reels in a tad bit nearer, Spiralling down in my direction, Grasping it like a handheld mirror, I see my own reflection. Happy Canada Day!

The Full Moon this week occurs in your sign. If there is any time to be noticed for something, it is now. The position you might want to take when it comes to any situation will be made quite clear by you. This won’t necessarily fit in with what others might want or expect, generating the need for them to reconsider.
You could suddenly begin to realise that somebody else isn’t planning to be as agreeable as you have presumed. This may make you wonder about exactly what might be building up behind the scenes that might prove difficult. Focus on what gives you greatest enjoyment and any decisions you need to make in these directions.
Something you have been putting your energy into over the last 2 weeks might now require some rethinking, especially if you feel certain obligations take up too much of your time and might be better dropped. Look at this as a first stage up to late October. Developing greater personal freedom in the long term will be important.
There can be much to enjoy this week though there will be other situations that will provide some challenges. You need to be creative with thinking or decision making to late October, especially if you are being put under pressure when it comes to the expectations of somebody else. Your focus will be to bring something to an end.
What is possible in the long term could become clearer, making you realise that what once seemed important might need to be rethought. This could be as a result of what someone else now wants or expects. You must not put your wishes to one side as there is the opportunity to fulfil those eventually, even if it is not obvious right now. Don’t hesitate to either challenge or bring something to an end with somebody else if this will generate greater peace, balance or harmony to you on a personal level. This could bring some surprising things to the surface that you didn’t expect, making it necessary to rethink, to late September, the decisions you should make.
Your focus will move to finances to late September and this can have some sort of new beginnings attached, though this is a first stage. There could be final details you need to sort out so that you will be in a good position to handle any increase in responsibilities. The true position of somebody else could become more obvious.
You could come to the realisation, from now to late September, that it is better to scale down ideas you might have had late July to mid August to be able to take these things into the future successfully. Others might have bigger ambitions but you can be happier with small steps, allowing you to have a feeling of better control.
Somebody else could become surprisingly generous, which you might find hard to trust. When it comes to any definite decision making you need to take your time to late September. Matters will require careful contemplation especially in any situations where you need to scale back obligations rather than take new ones on.
Something you thought had become evident since mid August where someone else’s decision making is concerned could again become more unknown to late September. It could be that they need to withdraw to make final decisions. These could involve taking your priorities into account as well as generating some sort of pleasure in life.
You are in a position to late September to contemplate future plans and possibilities that you may have wanted from late July to mid August but could not finalise. You have the opportunity to engage with others and get a response. This could also have a lot to do with leaving the past behind up to 20th November so you can move on with a new life direction.
Interactions with other people can be pleasant on one hand but challenging on another when it comes to any situation where personal commitment from you is expected. What should be aimed for in the long term can be communicated to late September, though this is a first stage. Winding things up is part of the process.

SURREY, B.C. - Surrey Memorial Hospital has launched the 1st robotic surgery program in Fraser Health that will strengthen Fraser Health’s regional thoracic (chest) and ear, nose and throat (ENT) care, marking an important step forward in specialized surgical care for patients across Fraser Health and the province.
The milestone was marked by Fraser Health’s first robotic-assisted surgery performed using the da Vinci Xi Surgical System funded by Surrey Hospitals Foundation donors. The Da Vinci XI is one of the world’s most advanced technologies for minimally invasive surgery. Based at Surrey Memorial Hospital, Fraser Health’s regional centre for thoracic and ENT care, the program expands access to complex procedures, enhancing care and reducing wait times for patients across the region.
As British Columbia’s largest health authority and the second largest in Canada, Fraser Health serves more than 1.9 million people – more than one-third of the province’s population.
Yet access to robotic-assisted surgery remains limited in B.C. Surrey Memorial Hospital’s
Da Vinci Robot Strengthens Regional Thoracic and ENT Surgical Programs at Surrey Memorial Hospital
robot is the sixth active da Vinci surgical robot in the province. By comparison, Ontario had more than 17 da Vinci surgical robots in operation as of last year, underscoring both the significance of this milestone and the importance to further expand access to this level of care in British Columbia.
Made possible through a partnership between Surrey Hospitals Foundation donors and Fraser Health, the launch combines philanthropic investment with public health care infrastructure embedding innovation in care. Donor support funded the da Vinci Xi Surgical System, while Fraser Health completed the operating room upgrades, clinical implementation, recruitment, and specialized training required to bring the program into service.
“From the beginning, our clinicians envisioned more than bringing a robot to Surrey - they envisioned building a centre of excellence that would advance patient care, attract worldclass talent, and create new opportunities for research and innovation across British Columbia,” said Nicole Robson, President & CEO of Surrey Hospitals Foundation. “We are proud to support that ambition. Philanthropy played a critical role in helping bring this technology
to Fraser Health, and it will continue to help drive the next generation of surgical innovation for patients throughout the region.”
Initially focused on thoracic procedures, the robotic surgery program will soon expand to include ENT patients, with the first ENT case expected in the coming weeks. The technology will support patients undergoing complex procedures involving the lungs, chest, throat, and head and neck, giving surgeons enhanced visualization, precision, and dexterity while helping eligible patients benefit from less invasive procedures, reduced pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recoveries.
“Robotic-assisted surgery expands what is possible for patients requiring complex thoracic procedures,” said Dr. Ashrafi, Regional Division Head and Chief of Thoracic Surgery.
“It gives us enhanced precision, visualization and control, which can support a less invasive approach to surgery and help improve recovery for patients. This is an important step forward in building a leading thoracic and ENT program at Surrey Memorial Hospital.”
“As we begin to introduce robotic-assisted surgery into ENT care, this technology creates new opportunities not only for patient care, but also for innovation in how we approach
complex procedures,” said Dr. Anderson, Regional Head of Head, Neck, and Microvascular Surgery for Fraser Health “It helps position Surrey Memorial Hospital to contribute to the next generation of surgical excellence through clinical learning, talent attraction, and future research.”
The launch is also helping strengthen Surrey Memorial Hospital’s ability to attract highly specialized clinicians, including talent from leading institutions across North America. Among them is Dr. Brent Chang, who joins Surrey Memorial Hospital from Mayo Clinic to support the continued growth of the hospital’s ENT program.
As Fraser Health continues to respond to rapid population growth and rising demand for specialized care, the launch at Surrey Memorial Hospital represents the first phase of Fraser Health’s broader robotic surgery strategy, with a second robotic surgery program expected to become operational at Royal Columbian Hospital. At a time when health-care systems are under growing pressure and the cost of advancing care continues to rise, philanthropy is more important than ever in helping bring leading technology, expertise, and innovation to this region - ensuring people across Fraser Health have greater access to the best possible care.
Energy-efficiency upgrades will help lower costs for households with lower incomes
Together with BC Hydro, FortisBC and Natural Resources Canada, the Province is supporting families with lower incomes to save money on their utility costs through home-energy improvements.
“We are taking action to help people lower their utility bills by expanding our home energy-efficiency programming for lower-income families,” said Adrian Dix, B.C.’s Minister of Energy and Climate Solutions. “Switching to high-efficiency heat pumps is one of the fastest, most effective ways to lower building-sector emissions and at the same time reduce costs for people.”
The Energy Conservation Assistance Program (ECAP) through BC Hydro and FortisBC provides no-cost homeenergy retrofits to homeowners and tenants with lower incomes, including upgrades, such as heat pumps, dualfuel systems, insulation and air sealing, and other retrofits that help households save energy and reduce monthly utility costs.
The expansion of ECAP in B.C. represents a joint investment of $222 million. The federal Canada Greener Homes Affordability Program is contributing $93.8 million, alongside an $8-million contribution from the Province.
Energy Conservation Assistance Program
ECAP is designed to help those most in need by improving access to energy-efficiency upgrades for income-qualified households, while enhancing safety and comfort in their homes. ECAP is free for eligible income-qualified customers and provides home-energy assessments, energy coaching and energy-efficient upgrades.
Some income-qualified households may qualify for air-source heat pumps or dual-fuel systems. The program offers fully subsidized home-energy assessments, energy coaching and the installation of energy-efficient products.
BC Hydro
BC Hydro is receiving $68.8 million from the Government of Canada, $8 million from the Province of B.C., and contributing $100.5 million, for a total of $177.3 million to expand ECAP.
This funding will support the expansion of BC Hydro energy-efficiency programs that provide no-cost retrofits to eligible households throughout British Columbia.
Supported measures include weatherization upgrades and heat pumps. The expanded programming will help more than 5,800 households with lower incomes to access significant energysaving improvements, reducing energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
FortisBC
As part of a total investment of $45.1 million, the Government of Canada is contributing $25 million, while FortisBC is providing $20.1 million to expand ECAP and support incomequalified customers.
This funding will support the expansion of energy-efficiency programming for eligible households in B.C., including weatherization upgrades, dual-fuel systems and other energysaving measures.
The investment will help approximately 1,800 households improve energy performance, lower utility costs and reduce associated greenhouse gas emissions while supporting broader provincial and federal affordability and climate goals.
Tim Hodgson, federal Minister of Natural Resources –
“In an increasingly uncertain world, we are investing in what we can control to bring down costs for Canadians through new energy-efficient home retrofits. As it is now delivered across British Columbia, the Canada Greener Homes Affordability Program will help Canadian families save money, while strengthening our energy systems and making Canada an energy superpower.”

practical insights into how AI can support decision making, education and workflow optimization in health care. This experience has strengthened my confidence in engaging with digitalhealth innovations and applying them in my role as a clinical informatics educator.”
More than one million job openings are expected in British Columbia in the next decade. The future skills grant helps people prepare for these opportunities by reducing financial barriers to education and training, while supporting employers’ need for skilled workers.
Aligned with the Province’s Look West strategy, the grant supports workforce development in high-demand sectors that are critical to delivering major projects and supporting B.C.’s economic growth and resilience. By making skills training more affordable and accessible, the future skills grant helps ensure people in British Columbia are prepared for rewarding careers.
SRK’s witty reply to
fan’s love confession
Superstar Shah Rukh Khan charmed fans with his trademark wit during an event in Mangalore, Karnataka, after a female admirer confessed that she loved him more than her husband. Responding with a smile, the actor joked, “You should have told me that in private,” leaving the audience laughing. He then added warmly that he understood her emotions and was sure her husband did too. “I love you all. I love your husband. I love your family.
Thank you so much,” he said.
Shah Rukh also greeted the crowd with a “Namaskara” in Kannada and thanked the people of Mangalore for their
overwhelming affection. Recalling his connection with the city, he shared that he spent the first five years of his life there with his grandfather, making the visit especially meaningful.
On the work front, Shah Rukh is currently filming the action thriller King, directed by Siddharth Anand. The film marks the theatrical debut of his daughter, Suhana Khan, and also stars Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Arshad Warsi, Raghav Juyal and Jaideep Ahlawat. Scheduled for a Christmas 2026 release, King is already generating excitement among fans following reports of its international shoot in Cape Town.
Mouni talks about forgiveness
Days after announcing her separation from husband Suraj Nambiar and requesting privacy, Mouni Roy has opened up about forgiveness, healing and the importance of letting go of resentment. Reflecting on how her perspective has changed over the years, the actor revealed that forgiving others had always come naturally to her, but forgetting the pain they caused was far more difficult. "When I was much younger, I would forgive very easily and till date, I do, but I wasn't able to forget. Now, with my own personal and spiritual journey, I feel like you just have to forgive; God makes you forget," she shared. Mouni believes that holding on to hurt only prolongs one's own
suffering. She explained that people who cause pain often move on without dwelling on their actions, while the person carrying resentment continues to bear the emotional burden. According to her, practices such as meditation, chanting and spirituality have helped her gain peace, clarity and a healthier outlook on life. At the same time, she clarified that forgiveness should not be confused with excusing harmful behaviour. Acknowledging that some people intentionally cause harm, Mouni said she chooses to view such actions as negative qualities rather than defining an entire person by them.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas brought her global perspective and star power to the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 2026, where she participated in a thought-provoking discussion titled Building Legacy: Moving Culture Through Originality and Borderless Expression. Speaking on the role of authenticity in shaping influence, Priyanka highlighted the importance of original storytelling and creative expression that transcends borders. Her participation underscored her journey from being one of India's biggest stars to becoming a global figure influencing conversations around culture, representation and legacy. Dressed in a chic polka-dot Heloise dress, accessorised with a hat and sunglasses, the actor made a stylish appearance at the beachside venue. Before taking the stage, she delighted fans by stopping to greet attendees and pose for selfies, earning praise for her warmth and approachability. The appearance comes amid a busy professional schedule for the actor. Priyanka has been filming her Indian project Varanasi with SS Rajamouli and is expected to begin work on her next production alongside Orlando Bloom in August. She has also teased an upcoming collaboration with Angelina Jolie, though details about the project remain under wraps.
Nora steps into memory lane
Vijay’s formula for choosing scripts
Actor Vijay Varma has opened up about the thought process behind choosing his projects, revealing that a compelling script always takes precedence over star power, production houses, or industry trends. According to Varma, the first test of a script is whether it excites him as a reader. “If you’re not enjoying reading it, there’s no chance you’re going to enjoy watching it on screen,” he said, adding that he needs to genuinely love the material and find it gripping before considering anything else. He admitted to turning down several projects despite the involvement of big names because the scripts failed to resonate with him. The actor shared that over the years, he has become more confident in identifying strong stories. Beyond the script, he looks for roles that challenge him and allow him to explore territory he hasn’t ventured into before. The director also plays a crucial role in his decision-making, as he believes a capable filmmaker can elevate even a decent script into something exceptional. Varma was last seen in Matka King, the crime drama created by Nagraj Manjule. He has since wrapped up Netflix’s corporate thriller Family Business with Anil Kapoor and has an exciting slate of projects lined up, including Lust Stories 3, Bun Tikki, Antony, Matka King 2 and an unannounced venture.
Bollywood's dancing diva Nora Fatehi stepped into memory lane with the release of her latest track, Ya Baba, a song inspired by the iconic Tunisian folk classic Sidi Mansour, which she says she heard at weddings and events when she was younger. Nora shared a video of herself talking about her latest song, which is in collaboration with Shilpa Rao. She captioned the clip: "I'm taking a trip down memory lane and revisiting an iconic song that was a part of my childhood and years later, it's still finding its way back to me in the most special ways. What are some songs that make you nostalgic?" In the video, the dancing diva was heard saying: "Just dropped the track called Ya baba. It's sung by me and Shilpa Rao produced by Sunjoy and Ya baba is originally a Tunisian folk song called Sidi Mansour."
She added: "So this song has a beautiful history and cultural background and what's really cool about this song is I used to hear this song in so many weddings and events when I was younger. And yeah, like let's do this, drop this track."
Nora first found fame with her work in Telugu films for her special appearance songs in films like Temper, Baahubali: The Beginning and Kick 2 and has also starred in two Malayalam films, Double Barrel and Kayamkulam Kochunni.

demand is high can be a smart move. Here are some simple steps to follow for a successful sale:
Get your car ready. This is a good opportunity to give your vehicle a full inside-and-out clean and to have it inspected. A good cleaning helps it look its best, and an inspection can uncover hidden issues before a buyer does. There are a number of documents you can have ready in advance to help reassure potential buyers and make the sale easier: owner’s manual
used car history report or used vehicle infor- mation package repair receipts registration certificate warranty (or “as is” documentation)
Set your price. You can use resources and pricing tools, such as the Canadian Red Book, to help estimate the value. Another tactic is to compare listings for the same year and model in your area, including dealership prices. Keep in mind that the number of kilometres on your vehicle will affect what price you can expect. It’s a good practice to set a price that leaves room for negotiation while not pricing yourself out of the market.
Advertise the sale. You have several platforms and options available for setting up an online
ad. If there’s a site or platform you’re already familiar with, that’s a good place to start. Taking photos in good lighting from a variety of angles can help boost your car’s curb appeal.
Negotiate with the buyer. It’s important to be open-minded, polite but confident when dealing with prospective buyers. They’ll likely make offers that are below your sale price, so expect some haggling to get to a number you can both agree on. One way to protect yourself during the sale is to have the buyer sign a down-payment agreement, which helps solidify their commitment. Update your insurance. Once the sale completes, you’ll need to contact your insurer and update your car insurance. Some providers, such as Belairdirect, offer live agents who can guide you on what to update and when, which makes the process simpler and can help you avoid gaps in your coverage. Selling a vehicle can feel intimidating, especially the first time, but taking things step by step can make it more manageable.
