Managing mental wellness during the holidays This holiday season, British Columbians are encouraged to give themselves and their loved ones the gift of putting mental health first.

The holiday season can be a joyful and exciting time of year. But it can also be stressful, and particularly challenging for people with mental-health or substance-use issues.

The holidays can bring added pressures, such as travelling, socializing, late nights, busy schedules, financial strain and the quest to find the perfect gift. These demands can affect mental health, particularly for those who are: experiencing heightened stress; grieving the loss of a loved one; empty-nesters; elderly; living alone; or living with anxiety or depression.

Many mental-health and substanceuse services and supports are available throughout the province for adults,

s Christmas fast approaches in the coming days it’s beautiful to see the spirit and joy around the season.

For those families, who have lost loved ones it can be a difficult time no matter how long it’s been. For our family, it’s been a difficult journey over the past month and it seems like it doesn’t get any easier with time, especially for mom Kuldip, who they have been married for 51 years. Grieving is a process and there are definitely good and bad moments and group hugs are a necessity. Angel Elias from the Mission Hospice Society said, “ The grieving process takes time. Healing happens gradually; it can’t be forced or hurried – and there is no “normal” timetable for grieving. Some people start to feel better in weeks or months.

For others, the grieving process is measured in years. Whatever your grief experience, it’s important to be patient with yourself and allow the process to naturally unfold.

Remember, Grief is not an event… it is a process, that takes time to heal.

My father, Tok passed away on Nov 20th suddenly at the age of 84 and this is one of the few columns he will never read of mine.

He was a true pioneer in so many ways in the Fraser Valley, coming to Canada in 1952.

He knew all the legends in the community, and shared their stories and activities to a new generation. My father was one of the few that were left from a time, where people softly spoke about their struggles and hardships with dignity and proved that we could all live as one and make Canada to what it is today. Dad was a true ambassador of Mission, which he loved and cared for and a diplomat in negations to get projects completed so it can further the community. A real go getter, in simple terms. Mayor Randy Hawes referred to him as, “iconic figure in our community and he will be missed.”

In Sikh customs mourners elected annually at a regular come to the home and pay respect to the Board meeting. family of the deceased. In preparations for

the funeral members of the family bath the body and dress it for viewing, which many funeral directors have commented to be a healthy concept. For me, this was tough, but it had to be done. Sikh funerals are generally open casket so mourners can pay their final respects and there is usually a turban or head covering on the deceased. I personally, am not comfortable in viewing the body, but in Sikh traditions it’s an important part of the farewell. The remains of the five hour cremation are usually shattered in moving water by family to free the soul in its journey.

After the service mourners gather at the Sikh temple for a prayers service and light meal.

For some families, they will not celebrate any occasion for an entire year. The funeral took place at Fraser River Funeral Home in Abbotsford, which is a perfect location to serve the larger geographical area and can easily seat over a thousand.

Mike de Jong MLA Abbotsford West said, “ For Tok Herar working hard to earn a living was important because it provided him with the means to support the family he loved with all his heart. But ask anyone who knew Tok and they will tell you that for him the noblest calling of all was service in the cause of the community. He sought neither thanks nor recognition but is deserving of both for the countless hours he spent to make Mission, British Columbia and Canada a better place. His sense of civic duty will live on in the hearts of his wife, children and grandchildren who will miss him dearly.

“Tok lead by example. His was a life of volunteerism and philanthropy. We are all the richer for having known him and can honour him best by following his example of community service.”

Statement for International Migrants Day 2017

T

he Hon. Ahmed Hussen, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship; the Hon. Chrystia Freeland, Minister of Foreign Affairs; and the Hon. Marie-Claude Bibeau, Minister of International Development and La Francophonie, today issued the following statement: “The United Nations designated December 18 as International Migrants Day. It is an opportunity to remember the rights, contributions and needs of migrants worldwide.

“Throughout history, migration has been a means for people to overcome adversity and seek a better life for themselves and their families. There are currently more than 244 million international migrants around the world, and one in 10 of them are under the age of 15.

“Canada has a long and proud tradition of immigration, and one in five Canadians is born abroad. Migrants contribute to the identity and long-term prosperity of our country, enhance the cultural richness and diversity of our commu-

nities, bring new skills to our labour force, and contribute to innovation and the economy.

“Safe, orderly and regular migration brings positive contributions to our societies. We must work to build greater respect for the dignity and human rights of migrants, and to eliminate all forms of discrimination, including against women, girls, and persecuted minorities.

“Migrants are often subject to inhumane conditions and human rights abuses, such as human trafficking. Migrant women and girls are particularly vulnerable during their journeys and need protection. We must not forget them.

“Today, and every day, Canada is committed to protect and uphold their fundamental rights and freedoms.”

Minimalist gift-giving made easier (NC) The holidays often bring a lot of shopping angst. Whether it’s the “I-don’t-need-anything-friend” or the family member who already has everything, it can be hard to shop for all the people on your list. Here are some inexpensive ideas everyone will love.

ated by someone in need as well. World Vision’s gift catalogue is a great place to find unique gifts that make a lasting impact. From goats to school supplies and bicycle repair kits, each gift will make a difference and there’s something for everyone on your list.

1. Food. Meals and treats bring a smile to even the Scroogiest gift receiver.

Whether it’s coffee, exotic cheeses or a cheap-as-chips (literally) bag of their favourite guilty pleasure, yummy things usually don’t get wasted.

4. Time. Whether it’s spending an afternoon building a snowman with your kids or taking a friend out for lunch, setting aside some time for a loved one could be the best gift you give this season. The key is giving them your undivided attention so think about leaving your phone at home.

2. DIY. Homemade options are endless if you use a little imagination and a lot of Pinterest. Pinecone ornaments, a hand-painted mug or a fun card can add a personal touch to the usual holiday offerings.

3. Donations. Making a charitable donation will not only bring the giver and receiver joy, but will be appreci-

5. Service. Providing a service can be a big help for those in your life who never take time for themselves. You could dog-sit for a friend, give a busy mom a day at the spa or clean your dad’s car. Showing someone you care in an active way is a gift they won’t forget.

Early colon cancer screening test for average-risk patients resumes Vancouver — Fecal immunochemical testing, or FIT, part of the early screening process for colon cancer, resumes following a temporary suspension.

Testing was suspended in October 2017 after a manufacturer problem was identified with the liquid solution, also known as a reagent, used to test the FIT samples.

“We worked closely with partners to ensure the safe resumption of testing for all British Columbians,” says Health Minister Adrian Dix. “Making sure people have access to FIT helps to detect the warning signs of colon cancer as early as possible. I encourage everyone eligible for FIT to get tested.”

FIT is a routine screening test recommended for men and women between the ages of 50 and 74 and is designed for people who are considered at average risk of colon cancer. It detects blood in the stool, which can be an early sign of colon cancer. Patients with abnormal test results are referred for a follow-up colonoscopy.

“We are pleased to say we have resumed FIT for all British Columbians,” says Dr. John Spinelli, VP of Population Oncology at BC Cancer.

“In addition to laboratories’ new quality checks, BC Cancer will continue monitoring for system-wide performance changes, which had led us to the problem initially.”

Laboratory providers worked closely with the manufacturer to resolve the quality control concerns with the reagent. New batches of reagent have been approved for use following an extensive testing and quality assurance process. Laboratory providers have also set up additional quality checks to monitor test performance to prevent similar problems in the future.

The Colon Screening Program along with laboratory providers and health authority partners have a coordinated

PAGE 20

plan to notify patients about the resumption of testing, first addressing those patients for whom testing was delayed.

Advice for patients: • Patients with existing FIT requisitions from their health care provider can bring their requisition to the laboratory to receive their FIT kit.

• Patients who could not pick up a FIT kit or those who completed FIT but did not receive a result due to the FIT suspension may be contacted by their laboratory provider. Each laboratory will determine the most appropriate approach for contacting their patients. Most laboratories are considering giving notice with instructions to patients by mail or telephone.

• Every effort will be made to contact patients. If not contacted by the end of January 2018, patients will need to return to their health care provider to obtain a requisition for a FIT kit.

As we reinstate screening there may be modest delays in providing FIT results due to increased volume during the initial re-introduction of FIT. But, this should return to normal in a few weeks.

FIT is designed for people who are considered at average risk of colon cancer. Patients with a family history of colon cancer or with symptoms that may indicate cancer were not affected by this test suspension. Anyone at high risk of colon cancer due to a strong family history or personal history of adenomas continued to be referred directly to the Colon Screening Program for colonoscopy.

#BuyBC turkeys this holiday season and support your local farmer Minister of Agriculture Lana Popham and local turkey farmer Dan Ireland met with Russ Benwell, owner of Red Barn Market, ahead of the busy holiday season to encourage British Columbians to buy B.C. turkeys for their annual festive celebrations.

“At Red Barn, we are supporting our local farmers and producers to ensure customers are getting the best tasting and quality items,” said Benwell.

“Our selection of B.C. turkeys for the holidays are sure to please your family and guests!”

“Purchasing a B.C. turkey is a longstanding tradition for many families in B.C. It puts delicious, festive food on our holiday tables and supports our farms,” said Popham. “When British Columbians choose to buy B.C. turkeys, poultry, and other agricultural products, they support local family farmers like Dan Ireland of Ireland Farms, and in turn, are supporting our local communities.”

B.C. turkeys are getting even more help this year from the provincial government with funding to support the sales of local turkeys in 2018.

The B.C. Turkey Marketing Board is receiving $75,000 in matching funding from the provincial government through the Investment Agriculture Foundation of B.C. (IAF) to expand its presence in the local retail marketplace, and to promote the sale of B.C. turkeys through digital campaigns and translated materials for multicultural channels in the new year.

Red Barn Market is a local grocer with multiple locations that focuses mainly on foods made, raised or grown on Vancouver Island. They are a strong supporter of local turkey sales, allowing customers to pre-order their holiday birds, and sourcing many freerange turkeys for southern Vancouver Island residents’ holiday meals over the years.

“Thanks to the funding, we have the opportunity to reach out to B.C.’s Asian and South Asian communities to encourage the consumption of B.C. turkeys,” said Michel Benoit, general manager and marketing, B.C. Turkey Marketing Board. “In phase one and

two of our campaign, we are promoting the benefits of eating turkeys, how to cook them and the history of their popularity in North America.”

The cost-shared funding administered by the IAF aims to promote local foods or beverages that are grown, raised, harvested or processed in B.C. The B.C. government is taking a three-pillared approach to support the province’s agriculture, seafood, and food and beverage processing sectors

and to encourage the consumption of B.C. products. An enhanced Buy BC marketing program will help local farmers like Ireland Farms market their products within the province to grow their businesses.

Feed BC will be established to increase the use of B.C. foods in hospitals and other government facilities, and Grow BC will be created to help B.C. producers expand local food production.

Top tips to stay active as you age (NC) For the first time in history, there are more Canadians over the age of 65 than there are under 15. But if you haven't noticed a difference, it's not surprising. Today, people are no longer content with letting age dictate what they can and cannot do. We want to be proactive about our lives and our health — to keep active, try new things and stay independent for as long as possible.

Tips like these, combined with input from the right professionals such as physicians, dietitians and physiotherapists can help you age powerfully, not just comfortably.

Every step counts. No matter your age, health or physical ability, staying active is one of the best things we can do to maintain a great quality of life. Physical activity is proven to help prevent chronic illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and many cancers. It may not seem important in the moment, but even small changes to our routines can go a long way toward maintaining our independence and well-being in the years to come.

If you're having trouble getting motivated, just remember every step counts. Two and a half hours of physical activity each week is a great target.

If you're having difficulty reaching it, start with 10-minute sessions and add on a few minutes every time. Try exercises you enjoy, like swimming or bicycling. Group activities such as Nordic walking, jogging and spin class are great ways to hold a commitment with friends or instructors.

Get a helping hand. To help you get started, there are lots of great resources online that can provide information about staying active and the exercise equipment needed to do so. For instance, to help Canadians take charge of the way they age, Shoppers Drug Mart recently launched their website wellwise.ca. It offers everything from sleep therapy to low-impact fitness and physiotherapy products, as well as supports and braces, mobility products, and tools and gadgets to stay active and well. You can even set up subscriptions for products you purchase on a regular basis.

7 fun ideas to nurture your child's love of reading (NC) Between school, meals and extra-curricular activities, it can be tough for families to find time to incorporate reading into their daily routine. Here are some ideas that make it easy and fun to build a child's love of reading every day.

1. Sing out loud. Add a twist to reading stories out loud by having kids sing or use a silly voice as they read a scene or chapter from a book.

2. Take a field trip. Whether running errands at the grocery store or taking a family road trip, make reading a part of every outing by reading signs, plaques, cereal boxes and more.

3. Let kids be the author. As stories can help frame how we see the world, encourage kids to make up their own stories about what they are seeing and doing.

4. Send snail mail. Receiving mail can be the highlight of a child's day. Get friends and family to regularly send fun letters that are full of new words and pictures.

5. Be a cookbook star. Make preparing dinner a reading experience by having

1. Keep a journal with you to jot down a to-do list or anything you might need to look back on. You can try using note-taking apps on your phone if you don't like the hassle of bringing a journal everywhere.

2. Colour code your to-do list, calendar and email based on priority or topic. That way, you'll keep track of deadlines and tasks in an organized and visually appealing way. The colours might even brighten up your day.

3 ways for families to give back together (NC) With the hustle and bustle that comes with the “most wonderful time of the year,” it is often easy to forget the true meaning behind this joyous occasion. But showing kids that giving feels just as great as receiving can be turned into fun activities for the entire family.

Here's how:

kids read and follow along with the recipe.

6. Act it out. Don't just read a chapter or scene from a favourite book — encourage kids to dress up and act it out in front of family or with friends.

7. Take turns. Make reading fun for the whole family by having each family member take a turn reading a chapter or page from a story.

1. Build an advent calendar.

Instead of filling your calendar with chocolate and candies, fill it with actions that will help those in need.

Things like shoveling a neighbour's driveway or donating to a food bank are simple ways to give back.

2. Involve children in the tradition of gift giving. While your children are writing their wish lists, have them choose a gift that will help a child in need in a developing country. The World Vision gift catalogue has some unique ideas such as goats or rain boots. It's also a great opportunity to

Building a child's at-home library is also a must when it comes to encouraging a love of reading. Start with a book that celebrates Canada, like Good Morning, Canada by Andrea Lynn Beck.

3. Create a holiday-themed “generosity jar.” Spend a cold night with a creative DIY project, like decorating a generosity jar for the holidays.

Throughout December, encourage your children to raise money for the jar by doing extra chores or donating a portion of their allowance. Just before Christmas, discuss what causes are special to your family and then donate the proceeds

New child-care spaces will help families around B.C. zations, and 20% are from Indigenous child-care providers.

“We are speeding up the creation of new child-care spaces to address years of pent-up demand for child care,” Chen said. “Our February budget will show our long-term commitment to building a system of accessible, affordable and quality child care for families across the province.”

The Province is working with successful proponents to establish funding agreements. Construction and renovations for the majority of the approved projects are expected to begin shortly. However, each site’s timelines for completion will differ, depending on their individual proposal requirements.

“The Provincial Child Care Council is working closely with the ministry to guide them towards improving access to child care,” said Wayne Robertson, PCCC chair. “Council members are energized by the new focus on fixing the child-care crisis and I think that the future is looking brighter for B.C. parents.”

B.C. government ends grizzly bear hunt

T

he British Columbia government is bringing an end to the hunting of grizzly bears throughout the province, Doug Donaldson, Minister of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development, and George Heyman, Minister of Environment and Climate Change Strategy, announced today.

“Through consultations this past fall, we have listened to what British Co-

lumbians have to say on this issue and it is abundantly clear that the grizzly hunt is not in line with their values,” Donaldson said. “Our government continues to support hunting in this province and recognizes our hunting heritage is of great importance to many British Columbians.”

The spring grizzly bear hunt was scheduled to open on April 1, 2018, but the ban on hunting for resident and non-resident hunters takes effect immediately.

“Our government is committed to improving wildlife management in B.C., and today’s announcement, along with a focused grizzly bear management plan, are the first steps in protecting one of our most iconic species,” Heyman said. “We also want to promote the healthy grizzly bear viewing economy in B.C. and give everyone the tremendous opportunity to see these incredible animals in their natural habitat.

“After years of work on this file, my colleagues and I are absolutely overjoyed this decision has finally been made,” said Adam Olsen, Green MLA for Saanich North and the Islands.

“The results of the consultation were clear and government has listened. We couldn’t be more thrilled.”

In August 2017, government announced that, effective Nov. 30, 2017, it would end trophy hunting of grizzly bears and stop all hunting of grizzly

bears in the Great Bear Rainforest.

Government also announced it would launch a consultation process on regulations to support a sustenance hunt, while ending the trophy hunt.

Through the consultation process with First Nations, stakeholder groups and the public, 78% of respondents recommended the hunt be stopped entirely.

First Nations will still be able to harvest grizzly bears pursuant to Aboriginal rights for food, social, or ceremonial purposes, or treaty rights.

There are an estimated 15,000 grizzly bears in British Columbia.

Provincial government staff will be implementing recommendations from the recent Auditor General report on grizzly bear management. The government will also be moving forward with a broader consultation process on a renewed wildlife management strategy for the province in the new year.

Smart tips to reach your retirement goals this year (NC) Canadians are living longer, and company pension plans are getting smaller or disappearing altogether.

While this can make saving for retirement even more stressful, there are some simple ways you can save more money every day and work towards a comfortable nest egg.

Pay yourself first. Set up automatic contributions to retirement accounts.

If you never have the money, can you really miss it?

Start young. When you're saving for retirement, compound interest is your best friend. For example, if your investments average a return of six per cent a year, your money will double every 12 years. Getting an early start can make a big difference.

Make a budget. If you're often left wondering where your money went at the end of the month, try tracking your spending.

Both the goals and beliefs you have established over the last 3 years now move to a stage that will put you under pressure to commit in a serious way during the next 3 years. You can experience a sudden insight this week that encourages a new approach, with your thinking becoming clearer for decision making to mid January.

You will move on from underlying pressure from the expectations of somebody else that has affected your life in an underlying manner for the last 3 years. There are certain things you have had to learn to let go of as well. The next 3 years will lack the same boundaries and encourage you to work out what is important long term.

Greater attention to detail will be required of you over the next 3 years, which could inhibit your natural skill to take things as they come or deal with them at the time.

If you embrace this you can develop the ability to speed up processes through greater efficiency. Praise can be lacking so you need to be content with yourself.

The greater your focus has been in the last 3 years on getting a good foundation in place with any set of circumstances in your life, including family, the more you can enjoy the rewards in the next 3 years. With this can come a greater sense of peace or the ability to relax. Responsibilities involving young people can be important.

Things you have learnt, which can include study or information you have gathered over the last 3 years now take you to the next stage of committing yourself during the next 3 years. You now have to get serious about what you are putting in place because it will form a foundation for a long period of time.

It can include family.

There has been a need to apply sense and caution to your personal finances during the last 3 years. What you have learned from this can now open up your mind to all sorts of ideas and possibilities during the next 3 years. To your birthday 2018, you need to keep any sense of impulse under control to make the most of future growth

Saturn moves on from your sign where it has been for the last 3 years putting you under pressure to be serious and responsible and perhaps bringing restrictions into your life. This will now be the case with your finances during the next 3 years. You can do extremely well here as long as you are not wasteful. Fall back on your newfound maturity that should have developed in the last 3 years.

Saturn, your ruling planet, moves into your sign where it will remain for the next 3 years.

This will provide plenty of opportunity for you to be successful with any situation you are prepared to commit yourself to. You have natural tendencies towards serious commitment and this can pay hansom dividends, though you might need to teach others to be more responsible, rather than you doing it for them.

Life has directed you to focus in a serious way on priorities that need to be most important in your life during the last 3 years.

You have likely changed your view on these as well. During the next 3 years you will need a lot of patience as progress might seem held back as you will need to withdraw a lot for deep considerations.

Commitments and responsibilities have put you under a lot of pressure during the last 3 years. At times it probably felt like overload.

As a result, this will now take you to the stage of becoming more acutely aware of what should take priority, based on what you wish to get out of life. These decisions need to come from you.

You will move out of the realm, which has affected you for the last 3 years, where it has been difficult to know the level of appreciation others really have for your efforts or to know where you stand. You will certainly get more attention in the next 3 years but need to be mindful of just how much responsibility you take on.

You should review what you have learned about commitments involving others in the last 3 years and the pressure you might have experienced as a result.

Political Correctness Christmas is a time for families coming to-gether and promoting the message of peace, love and harmony.

Recently, I had an opportunity to attend the Christmas concert/celebration at my grandchildren’s elementary school. The children seemed to be very enthusiastic and proud to put on this event for their, parents, grandparents, guests and school officials. It was a very enjoyable occasion. I would like to commend these children, their teachers and parents for putting it on.

Similarly, last Friday, January 16, Richmond Multicultural Community

Often, they tend to substitute it with Happy Holidays. Christmas is not only a religious celebration for Christians but also a mainstream celebration.

Multiculturalism doesn’t mean that we take away from our traditions but rather add to them. If we can convey greetings to each other on other religious occasions why not on Christmas? Often, minority communities get blamed for such political correctness.

However, most of the time, it is certain over enthusiastic individuals/organizations from the majority /mainstream communities who get carried away

Services (RMCS) had a very enjoyable Christmas celebration at Caring Place in Richmond.

and engage in this practice.

The RMCS staff and volunteers organized a very successful Annual Christmas Potluck. They had prepared very diverse and delicious dishes to share with the attendees. A lot of sponsors had generously supported this event.

A number of elected officials took the time to join us on this special occasion. As president of RMCS it was an honour for me to welcome Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie, Councillors Linda McPhail, Chak Au and Bill McNulty, Richmond Steveston MLA John Yap and Richmond South Centre MLA Linda Reid as well as School Trustees Jonathan Ho and Alice Wong.

All of them brought greetings to the participants.

In addition to mouth- watering dishes, the attendees were treated to lovely music and performances by Sangre Morena, Igor Vorontsov and the Gujrathi Garba Group. The children were thrilled to have their pictures taken with Santa and his gifts to them. The Raffle Prizes made a lot of participants happy as they won some impressive prizes. All in all, it was a great Christmas celebration.

Unfortunately, during the past few years, the political correctness seems to have gone too far. Sometime, people appear to be rather hesitant even to wish each other Merry Christmas.

PAGE 38

A vast majority of immigrants are very respectful of our traditions with very few exceptions. We should feel proud to wish each other Merry Christmas around Christmas time as we do for other religious occasions. Inclusiveness is one of the most cherished ideals of this nation. As such, we should make every effort to be inclusive and respectful of all of our traditions including Christmas greetings. In this context, I would like to conclude with some inspiring words from Ontario MP Michael Chong. Here is what he said about Canada: “We have created something very special, a place where millions of people have created a different kind of society where it doesn’t matter where you came from, what your background, your race, religion or creed is, but rather what you aspire to be and a place where we all share a common Canadian citizenship centred around our charter rights and freedoms, our laws, our democracy. So we’ve built something here pretty special that we need to protect, but also enhance.”

Celebrating our special traditions, festivals and traditions including Christmas is bound to enhance what we have.

Merry Christmas!

'Ab Dil Ki Sun' inspired by my life : Shama Sikander

Service to society can change the world : Hrithik

Actress Shama Sikander is excited for her home production's maiden venture "Ab Dil Ki Sun" and says that all the seven short films in the project are inspired by her life and feelings. "My home production's first project is titled 'Ab Dil Ki Sun'. It includes seven short films which are based on different human aspects. It's actually inspired by my life and my life's real incidents which we have fictionalised.," Shama said. "I have kept all those feelings which changed me as a person and gave me the opportunity to introspect in the forefront to male this movie, " she added. Shama expressed that each story comes with a question at the end, which is relevant and is not superficial.

"Each movie questions people in the end because I don't think I want to preach anyone that certain things are right or wrong as I also don't know what is right and what is wrong," the actress told reporters. Shama also says that in January 2018, she will launch her first film titled "No" . It will be the first film under "Ab Dil Ki Sun". The actress forayed into web-series space with Vikram Bhatt helmed "Maaya" and Shailendra Singh directorial short film "Sexoholic".

Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan, who will be playing educationist Anand Kumar in the biopic "Super 30", regards contribution and service to society as the most important virtue.

"Contribution and service - these two simple words have the power to change and envision a different world around you.

Contribution to your fellow men, contribution to your society itself is a thing to bring about positive change.

And that is the highest form of service," he said. "It is the noblest of all virtues and closest to God," said Hrithik. "Super 30", run by Anand Kumar, is an educational program in Patna that hunts for 30 meritorious talents from among the economically backward sections of society.

Sharing an experience with his kids, Hrithik said that he constantly wonders in future, say 20 years from now, "what success will mean to them (his kids Hrehaan and Hridhaan), what values will they uphold?

Which virtue will they hold the highest in their mind?" "There is one value that stands the tallest, which I hope and pray that they inculcate. It is the value of contribution and service. "I sit there at the breakfast table and I wonder if my children will grow up to learn the beauty and magic of these simple words," he added. To get the character right for Vikas Bahl's biopic, Hrithik is being constantly coached by none other than Anand Kumar himself.

Hrithik's upcoming projects also include "Krrish 4", and an untitled movie with Yash Raj Films co-starring Tiger Shroff and Vaani Kapoor in pivotal roles.

Most of my films are made for kids : Varun At the 2017 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan walked the red carpet together. Both the actors were asked to share their experiences in the industry as their film Student Of The Year has now completed five years.

The duo, who has done some very good films since their debut, are known to be great friends. Alia said, “Many things have changed, and many things still remain the same.” Varun added, “When SOTY was released, we didn’t get any critical appreciation. After that Alia garnered



critical acclaim for a lot for her work.” To which Alia quipped, “Why only me?” And Varun replied saying, “Because I didn’t. I got a lot of love from fans and from the audience.”

ABCD 2 actor Varun Dhawan was asked about the first look of Sui Dhaaga which featured the actor working on a sewing machine. Varun Dhawan said, “Now if I have to do fitting for my clothes, I can do it myself. So the training is useful.” The scribes also

asked the duo if they would like to do a kid’s film, and if they think there are lesser children’s films made. To which, Varun said, “Of course, films for kids should be made, most of my films are made for kids. Judwaa 2, was also like that. My next film October (directed by Shoojit Sircar) has a youth appeal.” Alia, on the other hand, said that her films like SOTY and Badrinath Ki Dulhania were loved by kids a lot.

Feel lucky for the roles I have got : Bhumi Actress Bhumi Pednekar, who has played characters such as a overweight woman in "Dum Laga Ke Haisha" and a vivacious girl in "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha", feels lucky for the roles that has come her way. "You feel happy when your films do well commercially but I feel extremely lucky about the kind of roles I have got. Yes, it is great to be part of a film that has done well but it is even better to have something substantial to do in a film," Bhumi said. The actress hopes to get such roles in the future. "I really hope to continue getting such roles. I am really happy the way life is going on," she added. Bhumi is gearing up for her fourth film "Chambal", which revolves around the Chambal dacoits. The film is directed by "Udta Punjab" famed Abhishek Chaubey and also stars Sushant Singh Rajput

Influence of women in any field is good : Farhan Actor-filmmaker-singer Farhan Akhtar hopes that actresses backing films as producers is not just a passing trend as he believes that women's influence, irrespective of the field, is good for everyone. Over the years, actresses like Dia Mirza, Priyanka Chopra, Anushka Sharma, Chitrangda Singh and Richa Chadha have shown interest in contributing to filmmaking as producers. Asked what he thought about the trend, Akhtar said here: "That's how it should be. Not just actresses, there are also a lot of female producers and women who are working in different companies and handling the creative aspect of those companies." "It is amazing to see that. The more influence that we have of women in any field, why just films... it can be sports or politics also, it's good for everyone because they have a different perspective on things because they have experienced life in different ways from what we (men) have; so, it makes a difference," added the brother of director Zoya Akhtar.

Get winter-ready in 3 steps

(NC) Canadian winters can be harsh, but that doesn't mean you can't set up your mind and body for a cozy and enjoyable season. Here's how:

1. Your skin needs extra hydration and care during the colder months, so also invest in moisturizers and deep conditioners for your hair. Since the sun doesn't stop shining in the winter, you'll also need UV protection. Travelsize moisturizers that you can keep in your bag or car will ensure you can stay protected from winter's severe elements all day long.

2. Re-vamp your winter wardrobe.

The best way to do this is with new

accessories like scarves, gloves and toques. Don't forget to consider colours and textures when pairing your accessories. Make sure your winter boots have the latest slip-resistant technology. Try the Wind River Bivy winter boots with Green Diamond from Mark's.

3. Winterize your vehicle. Your winter tires can go on as soon as the temperature drops to 7â °C. Pack an emergency kit in your car in case you get stranded in the colder weather and be sure to include a first aid kit, bottled water, granola bars, boots, gloves and an extra winter jacket.

Abbotsford's Community Basketball Christmas Comes Early For Starfish Student-AthPack Program! lete Spotlight: Sukhjinder Kang is the floor general for one of the best senior boys’ basketball teams in the province, Abbotsford’s W.J. Mouat Secondary School Hawks.

W.J. Mouat is currently ranked #4 in British Columbia and they also compete in the highest high school basketball division (AAAA) in British Columbia. This past weekend at the Abbotsford Police Basketball Tournament, Sukhjinder demonstrated his developed speed and agility; his opponents had no answers for his skill. His ability to beat his defender has created easy scoring opportunities for his teammates, which they readily took advantage of. Sukhjinder and the W.J. Mouat Hawks won the 2017 APD Basketball Tournament, beating St. John Brebeuf, Yale and M.E.I. in

the process. They won each game by 25 points or more. Other senior teams in the tournament were Rick Hansen, Dasmesh Punjabi School, Abbotsford Christian, Abbotsford Traditional, Abbotsford Senior and Robert Bateman.

Sukhjinder is planning on attending a post-secondary school where he can also play basketball. His eldest brother, Gurminder Kang, played postsecondary basketball at both Quest University Canada and the University of the Fraser Valley.

The Starfish Pack Program at the Abbotsford Food Bank received a boost of funds just in time for Christmas! Rotary Club President Stacey Irwin was happy to announce that “the club’s Playhouse Raffle raised just over $5000.00 and the proceeds are being given to the Abbotsford Food Bank’s Starfish Pack Program”.

On hand to draw the ticket was VicePresident, Chris Dominato of Woodtone Cedar Products. Woodtone donated materials and built the Playhouse.

President Stacey Irwin expressed great

appreciation for Woodtone’s generous donation and to Blackwood Building Centre for featuring the Playhouse at their store and rallying ticket sales to help make the raffle such a success and noting special thanks to our fellow Rotarians for selling tickets and to its organizers Bev Hasenpflug of Quantum Properties and Leslie McConnell of Myers Norris Penny Abbotsford.

Merry Christmas Best wishes for a wonderful holiday and a happy and prosperous new year.

Some buyers, however, get caught up in the excitement of buying a new home and tend to overlook some items. Their home purchase turns into an expensive process. These errors generally fall into three areas:

conditions, condition of the home and neighborhood. Without knowledge of the market, your offer could be too much. Or worse, you could miss out on a great buying opportunity.

Buying a mismatched home

When you have a systematic plan before you shop, you will be sure to avoid these costly errors. Here are some tips on making the most of your home purchase:

What do you need and want in a home?

Sounds simple. Yet, clearly identifying your needs and bringing an objective view to home shopping leaves you in a better position. Sometimes, home buyers buy a home that is too large or too small. Perhaps they did not consider the drive to work, the distance to school, or the many repair jobs waiting for completion. Plan ahead. Use your needs list as a guideline for every home you view.

Bidding without sufficient information

Unclear title

What price do you offer a seller? Is the seller's asking price too high? Is it a deal? Without research on the market and comparable homes, you could lose thousands of dollars. Before you make that offer, be sure you have researched the market. A Real Estate Professional can offer an unbiased opinion on the value of a home, based on market

Before you sign any document, be sure the property you are considering is free of all encumbrances. As part of their services, a Real Estate Professional can supply you with a copy of the title to ensure there are no liens, debts, undisclosed owners, leases or easements.

Paying too much Losing a dream home to another buyer Buying the wrong home

Outdated survey

Before the purchase is completed, an updated survey is essential.

This report will indicate boundaries and structural changes (additions to the house, a new swimming pool, neighbour's new fence which is extending a boundary line, etc.).

Unexpected repairs

Remember additional costs

For $300 - $500 a professional inspector will conduct a thorough inspection of the home. This way, you will have an idea of the cost of future repairs. Make the final contract subject to a favourable report.

Besides the funds for the purchase of a home, you’ll need funds for items such as loan fees, insurance, legal fees, surveys, inspections, etc.

Shopping without pre-approval

Before you sign, ensure that all documentation clearly reflects your understanding and conditions of the transaction. Has anything been forgotten?

Don’t rush. You could lose money, financing or even the sale.

It only takes a few hours to get mortgage pre-approval. When you are shopping for a home, this gives you more power.

A seller is more likely to consider an offer from a serious buyer.
