Whitecaps Reach Western Conference Final After Thrilling Shootout Win Over LAFC in Front of 53,957 Fans
Vancouver Whitecaps FC advanced to the Western Conference Final after a dramatic 2–2 draw and a 4–3 penaltyshootout win over LAFC on Sunday night at BC Place. In front of a sold-out crowd of 53,957, towels were waving across the stadium as Emmanuel Sabbi opened the scoring in the 39th minute and celebrated with cartwheels, putting Vancouver ahead 1–0. Mathías Laborda doubled the lead in first-half stoppage time to send the building into another roar.
LAFC fought back with Son HeungMin, who struck in the 60th minute
and then again deep into stoppage time. Tristan Blackmon was sent off with a red card in the second minute of second-half stoppage time, leaving Vancouver down a man. Just a few minutes later, Son capitalized and scored his second of the match at 90’+5 to force extra time.
A notable moment for the Punjabi community came late in the match when Vancouver made a key substitution: Jeevan Badwal replaced Thomas Müller, bringing the 19-year-old Surrey-born midfielder into the playoff battle at the 90th minute.
Despite being out-shot 25–9 and holding only 43.6% possession, the Whitecaps held firm defensively through extra time and stayed composed in the shootout, converting four times to LAFC’s three.
The win puts Vancouver into the Western Conference Final after one of the most electrifying playoff nights in club history and Vancouver post season sports history. The Caps now await thier next opponent and
Improvements coming to parking Downtown
Some changes are coming to Downtown Mission’s on-street parking by December 2025. The majority of adjustments involve changing areas with unrestricted parking or “No Parking, 5 am to 8 am” to 2- and 4-hour time limits, from 9 am to 6 pm daily. Longerterm weekday parking is available in the TransLink parking lot. For more details on what is changing, please visit the project page:
https://www.mission.ca/businessbuilding/current-city-projects/2025downtown-mission-parking-reconfiguration
The downtown parking changes are a recommendation arising from Mission’s Downtown Parking Study, which was endorsed in 2024. The study included data collection and public consultation, and the findings were:
PUNJABI PATRIK A STAFF pMjfbI pwiqRkf stfP
There is enough parking downtown – just not the right type of parking located in the right areas.
There is a need to change expectations and experiences so people feel comfortable walking short to further distances to get from parking to their destinations.
Downtown Mission is growing and there will be more pressure on the public parking supply.
Adjusting our parking layout is just one of the 17 action items recommended in the Downtown Parking Study to provide the right types of parking in the right areas, improve the parking experience downtown, and prepare for future growth. The City continues to implement the remaining action items as budgeting permits. For more details on the Downtown Parking Study, please visit mission.ca.

2025 Ford Mustang Convertible, Premium Edition. The legend Continues.
Auto review by Veeno Dewan.
ABBOTSFORD DENTAL CENTRE
The 2025 Ford Mustang is now in its seventh generation and returns with some tweaking to the styling and various minor improvements such as a new grille design and revised rear signature tri-bar lighting. The 2025 Mustang is available in fastback and convertible form. In terms of looks- it simply just kills!! Sleek, powerful and aggressive in either of the two body styles.
When it comes to engine choice, the top dog motor is the fourth-generation 5.0-litre Coyote V8 gasoline unit with up to 486 horsepower. Buyers who want greater fuel efficiency can still opt for the EcoBoost model, powered by a new 315-hp turbocharged 2.3L four-cylinder engine mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission with configurable drive modes.
Interior highlights include the cool Jet- fighter style dashboard with twin digital instrument cluster that can be optionally configured to flow into a 13.2-inch display unit. Infotainment is handled by the excellent Ford Sync 4 infotainment system behind a single integrated glass panel. The 12.4-inch digital instrument cluster is customizable to display different animated designs and has new drive-mode visuals with videogame -like graphics.
In terms of safety the Mustang comes equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360 suite and the full roster of active and passive
safety aids. Standard equipment levels are high and there is a range of options and upgrades. Mustang GT and EcoBoost models are both available with an optional GT Performance Pack.
The Mustang has an attractive starting at $37,000 for the Fastback with the 2.3L EcoBoost engine.
We tested the 2.3L EcoBoost engine Premium version convertible with the ten -speed automatic transmission base priced at $49,880. The Premium trim adds: - interior ambient lighting, heated leather wrapped steering wheel, leather trimmed heated and ventilated power seats, and smart charging USB outlet. The options package also added the premium trims Ford copilot 360 safety system, built in navigation and premier trim interior accents. Our tester came in an amazing looking Molten magna metallic paint, with a 3.15 Limited Slip Differential, and the killer B&O sound system with 12 speakers. Exterior options included a blade style rear spoiler, Bronze appearance package with Bronze accented 19-inch wheels, and adaptive valve exhaust. Final tally with options ($8,270) came to $58,270 plus $2,195 delivery and PDI for a total price of $60,465.
The 2025 Ford Mustang’s cabin features a blend of modern technology and classic Mustang design elements, including a customizable digital
instrument cluster, and the 13-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There is a customizable 12.4-inch digital instrument cluster that can be configured to display various information and even mimic classic analog car gauges.
The premium model as tested offers wonderfully padded and supportive leather seats. There is plenty of soft-touch materials and leather with stitching details on the seats and dash create a premium feel. The rear seats are more suitable for occasional use due to limited space, with a 2+2 seating configuration. The 2025 Ford Mustang convertible offers 11.4 cubic
fers quick acceleration. It tracks flat, stable and with minimum body roll during fast corners and has a smooth confident feeling. The convertible has a fully electric padded fabric top for those sunny days. It’s a blast whatever model you choose.
The V8 version Mustang is the most viscerally pleasing to drive and own., but the EcoBoost is probably the more practical with its better fuel consumption and lighter weight for more balanced handling – in my opinion anyway! Fuel economy for the 2.3L engine is rated at 9.2 L/100 KM combined, 10.8 -city and 7.1 highway which is respectable.
The base price for the Mustang Convertible is good value, however option it up to the GT level and beyond and it certainly gets pricier. This iconic convertible is very popular, judging by how many you see on the road with
feet. of cargo space. While this is a bit less than the 13.5 cubic feet available in the coupe version, it’s still a respectable amount of space for a sports car.
On the road, whatever model you drive, be assured of total fun. The Mustang is a comfortable urban cruiser, the steering is communicative, with a satisfying feel and there are selectable modes to change the performance parameters if need be. The 2.3L engine Mustang Convertible sounds great with the Active exhaust feature and of-
the top down on a nice day. You can of course have it mild or wild with multiple engine choices and a plethora of trim lines. The 2025 Mustang Convertible is a great riff on its legendary muscle car heritage and deservedly remains Fords Halo car. Buy once, enjoy for ever!
2025 Ford Mustang Premium Convertible. Final price with options $58,270 plus $2,195 for total price of $60,465. More info at www.ford,ca

Community Comes Together to Make 2025 Holiday Toy Drive the Most Impactful Yet
This year’s Annual Holiday Toy Drive marked its most impactful year to date, demonstrating the power of community generosity and collective spirit. A total of $8,350 was raised for Archway Toys for Tots, alongside $29,951 in cash donations for Canuck Place Children’s Hospice, bringing the combined contribution to an impressive $38,301.
The success of the initiative reflects the continued support of donors, volunteers, local businesses, and community partners who come together year after year to support families and children in need during the holiday season.
This year’s drive also carried special significance with the dedication of a room at Canuck Place Children’s Hospice in honour of the organizers’ late grandparents and Rajin’s father. This tribute recognizes their lasting legacy and the values of compassion, service, and care that continue to inspire the ongoing work of the toy drive.
The Annual Holiday Toy Drive once again highlighted what can be achieved when a community unites around a shared purpose, reinforcing its role as a meaningful tradition that brings hope and comfort to those who need it most.

Canada lifts the visa requirement for Qatari citizens
The Honourable Lena Metlege Diab, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship today announced that Canada has lifted the visa requirement for citizens of Qatar. This change took effect this morning at 5:30 a.m. EST.
Introducing visa-free travel for Qatari citizens makes it faster and easier for travellers to visit Canada for business or leisure. This milestone underscores the strength of our bilateral cooperation, and helps boost growth in tourism, business, and investment, while maintaining Canada’s commitment to managed migration and the safety and security of Canadians. It also reflects growing people-to-people and commercial ties between our two countries.
Qatari citizens who already hold a valid temporary resident visa can continue to use it to travel to Canada until it expires or until their passport is no longer valid (whichever comes first). Qatari citizens who do not hold a valid visa must apply for an electronic travel authorization (eTA) when travelling to Canada by air. Travellers can visit canada.ca/eTA to find out whether they’re eligible for an eTA and how to apply for one.
Quote
“Lifting visa requirements is an important step in our relationship with Qatar and makes it easier for eligible travellers to experience all that Canada has to offer. Not only will it strengthen
opportunities for business and investment, it will deliver economic benefits at home and abroad, while also deepening the strong ties between our two countries.”
– The Honourable Lena Metlege Diab, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship
Quick facts
In 2024, bilateral trade between Canada and Qatar was approximately CAN $325 million. Canada also welcomed approximately 9,000 visitors from Qatar, a 11.5% increase from 2023.
Canada and Qatar, who are celebrating over 50 years of diplomatic relations, are advancing co-operation in areas such as artificial intelligence,
clean energy, agribusiness and critical minerals.
The eTA is a digital travel document required for most visa-exempt air travellers to Canada. It allows officials to conduct quick pre-travel screening, with most applications approved within minutes using a valid passport, credit card, and email address.
Air services between Canada and Qatar have been growing since the Canada–Qatar Air Transport Agreement was expanded in late 2024. The added connections permitted by the expansion of that agreement are supporting stronger commercial partnerships and enhancing people-to-people ties between our two countries.

Online toolkit helps build homes faster as rents fall
More people will find their place in a community they love as B.C. continues rolling out new innovations that are making it easier and faster to build affordable homes, helping contribute to the decline in the asking price for rent in communities throughout B.C.
A new online platform called DASH, Digitally Accelerated Standardized Housing, is helping developers and non-profit organizations design and construct threeto six-storey buildings more quickly and at lower cost using products manufactured in B.C.
“Innovative programs are supercharging our work to deliver the homes that people need and help to drive down asking rents,” said Christine Boyle, Minister of Housing and Municipal Affairs. “For families, seniors and workers throughout our province, this means they will be turning a key and walking through the doorway of their new home sooner. We’re tackling
economic uncertainty head on in B.C. by building more homes faster.”
According to Rentals.ca’s Nov. 6, 2025, report, asking rents in B.C. dropped more than anywhere else in Canada, with prices down by 9.6% over the past two years and 5.8% in the past year alone. By cracking down on speculation, investing in affordable housing, cutting red tape and encouraging two consecutive years of record-breaking purpose-built rental construction in B.C., government is delivering results for people. DASH will ensure that government can continue to increase the number of homes available to help continue the trend of reduced asking rents.
DASH uses modern building methods, such as prefabricated parts and standardized designs, to speed up the process and reduce expenses. The first-in-Canada platform will also help builders access B.C.-made materials from throughout the province, adding jobs and helping build homes that are driving B.C.’s prosperity.
This supports B.C.’s Look West industrial and economic strategy, which emphasizes construction innovation as an important sector in strengthening the province’s economic security in the face of threats and making B.C. the economic powerhouse of Canada.
Additionally, the Province is working with local governments to improve the approval process and simplify building permit re-
quirements. These efforts include digital permitting tools and automated checks for building code compliance. New construction techniques, such as mass timber and off-site building, are helping reduce waste and deliver homes faster.
Innovation is a cornerstone of the Homes for People Plan, through which the Province has more than 93,600 homes delivered or underway in B.C. since 2017.
$1.3 Million Needed to Meet Growing Demand at the Archway Food Bank
The Archway Food Bank of Abbotsford is calling on the community to urgently raise $1.3 million before the end of the year to meet the rising demand for food among local residents.
“Right now, we’re serving more people than ever before, and without reaching this goal, we may have to look at making even deeper cuts to the kinds of food we can purchase to consistently provide well rounded and nutritious food hampers for each family,” said Rebecca Thuro, Archway food security manager.
The Archway Food Bank depends on financial contributions, grants, donated goods, and recovered food from grocery stores. However, with demand surging, the food bank increasingly needs to purchase pallets of essential items to keep shelves stocked.
The Archway Food Bank serves over 6,200 individuals each month which has gone up from an average of 5,000 people a month in 2024.
Beyond providing monthly food hampers, Archway runs the Christmas Bureau program, which supplies ingredients for a traditional holiday meal along with toys for children to help families celebrate the season.
“Even with bulk purchasing and incredible volunteer support, we’re facing a significant shortfall,” Thuro added. “Food banks are often the last resort for families after they’ve done everything they can to feed and house their family on their own. We can’t imagine not having enough food at the food bank when it’s needed most.”
Last year, the Archway Food Bank aimed to raise $1.2 million and nearly met that goal thanks to community generosity and matching campaigns.
The HungerCount 2025 report by Food Banks Canada recorded over 2.1 million visits to Canadian food banks in March 2025. This is the highest number recorded in history and has doubled since March 2019. Alarmingly, 19% of those visits
were from people with job income – 4% points higher than people who reported no income.
“We are seeing more working parents than those without income accessing the food bank. This is surprising but highlights the fact that people are struggling to keep up with the rising costs of groceries and housing,” said Thuro.
At the Archway Food Bank last year, 38% of the people accessing food were children, 10% were seniors and 12% had a disability.
“We could not have conceived that our lives would have been quickly and dramatically altered, but truly appreciate the graciousness of this community,” shared an anonymous food bank client.
Those interested in making a donation can visit AbbotsfordFoodBank.com/Donate to donate online or see alternative donation methods. Organizations who would like to set up a fundraiser or food drive can email donate@archway.ca for more details.

Vancouver Canucks Annual Diwali Skate
Earlier this month, the Vancouver Canucks held their annual Diwali Skate, welcoming approximately 25 South Asian kids for a special on-ice session. The hour-long skate was led by an accomplished group of coaches and trainers, including TAPS Hockey Development and UBC Women’s Assistant Coach Partap Sandhu, UBC Women’s Team Assistant Coach
Haneet Parhar, UBC Women’s Forward Annalise Wong, and ball hockey legend and hockey trainer Smiter Kaila. Together, they guided the kids through fun drills, skating exercises, and a memorable night on the ice.
Before stepping onto the rink, the participants received a big surprise: a visit from Arshdeep Bains — current Vancouver Canuck, Surrey-
born, and a proud representative of Punjabi and South Asian hockey culture. For many of the young skaters, it was a powerful moment to meet a role model who reflects their community, identity, and dreams.
Partway through the session, the excitement level climbed even higher when Finn, the Ca-
nucks’ beloved mascot, made an appearance and brought his trademark energy to the ice.
The entire event was a meaningful initiative and an unforgettable experience — blending fun, representation, and inspiration for every child involved. It all took place the night before the official Diwali Game, when the Canucks hosted the Chicago Blackhawks at Rogers Arena.
City budget deliberation meetings rescheduled to 2026
Abbotsford City Council will discuss the proposed 2026 budget on February 10 and 11, 2026, and will vote on the final 2026 budget later that month.
The meetings, which were originally scheduled for December 2 and 3, 2025, will now take place on February 10 and
11, 2026 in the Matsqui Centennial Auditorium from 1 to 5 p.m. on both days.
Residents are welcome to attend the meetings in-person or watch the live stream on at abbotsford.ca/watchcouncil.

Women and the Thyroid: What to Know
4th
As a final-year medical student, I often meet women who feel “not themselves” and are not sure where to start. One common place we look is the thyroid. This small butterfly-shaped gland in the lower neck makes hormones that set the pace for energy, mood, temperature, hair and skin health, and even periods. When those hormones are too low or too high, changes can build up slowly and feel confusing.
Many women first notice tiredness that does not fit their day. Others see hair thinning, dry skin, feeling colder than usual, constipation, or slow weight gain without trying. Periods can become heavier or farther apart. When the thyroid is overactive, some people feel jumpy or sweaty, notice a fast heartbeat, or lose weight without trying. These symptoms do not prove a thyroid problem on their own, but they are good reasons to speak with a health professional.
Checking the thyroid usually starts with a simple blood test. The first test is TSH, which is the brain’s signal that tells the thyroid to work. If TSH
is not in the usual range, a doctor may also check free T4, the main thyroid hormone in the blood. Together, these results often show whether the thyroid is underactive or overactive and help decide on next steps. Your clinician will read the results in the context of your age, medicines, pregnancy plans, and your symptoms.
If the thyroid is underactive, the most common treatment is a small daily tablet of levothyroxine. It replaces the missing hormone. How and when you take it matters. It works best on an empty stomach with a full glass of water. Many people take it first thing in the morning and then wait about 30 minutes before eating or drinking anything else. Others take it at bedtime, leaving a few hours after their last meal. Either plan can work if you keep it the same each day.
Timing with cha, calcium, and iron is important. Calcium tablets, iron supplements, some antacids, and highcalcium foods can block the tablet from being absorbed. A simple rule is to keep a four-hour gap between your
thyroid pill and any calcium or iron products. If cha is part of your morning routine, take the thyroid pill with water first, wait, then enjoy your tea. If you use a multivitamin that contains minerals, ask your pharmacist about the best spacing.
Food choices can quietly support thyroid health. Using iodized salt helps most people meet their iodine needs. There is usually no need for extra iodine supplements unless your clinician advises it. If you avoid dairy, eggs, or fish, you can still meet iodine needs by choosing iodized salt and eating a balanced diet. If you take herbal products or supplements, bring the bottles to your visit so your clinician can check for anything that might affect the thyroid.
Pregnancy and the months after birth are times when thyroid issues can appear or change. If you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, let your care team know about any thyroid history or symptoms. Targets for blood tests and medication doses
may be different during these times, and closer follow up is common.
After starting or changing levothyroxine, blood tests are usually repeated after several weeks to be sure the dose is right. If your symptoms improve and the tests settle, visits can be spaced out again.
Keep a list of your medicines, bring it to appointments, and let your dentist, pharmacist, and any specialists know you take a thyroid medication. Building the thyroid tablet into daily routines around meals and tea makes it easier to remember. A small pill box, a phone reminder, or keeping the bottle where you will see it each morning can help.
This column supports conversation and does not replace medical care. If you have ongoing tiredness, hair loss, weight change, a racing heartbeat, or any symptom that worries you, book a visit with your health professional. A brief appointment and a simple blood test can give clear answers, and careful timing with cha, calcium, and iron can help treatment work as it should.
Carney and Modi Launch Talks on High-Ambition CEPA to Double Canada-India Trade by 2030
PRIME Minister Mark Carney and Indian Minister Narendra Modi met on Sunday on the sidelines of the G20 Leaders’ Summit in Johannesburg and agreed to begin negotiations on a highambition Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), aimed at doubling bilateral trade to USD 50 billion by 2030.
Both sides reaffirmed their longstanding civil nuclear cooperation and noted the ongoing discussions on expanding
collaboration, including through longterm uranium supply arrangements, according to a statement by the Government of India.
The leaders emphasized the importance of regular high-level exchanges. Modi extended an invitation to Carney to visit India.
The leaders welcomed the adoption of Australia-Canada-India Technology and Innovation
(ACITI) Partnership which would give a boost to trilateral cooperation in the fields of critical technologies, nuclear energy, diversification of supply chains and Al.
They appreciated the renewed momentum in ties since their June 2025 meeting in Kananaskis on the margins of the G7 Summit, and the launch of the New Roadmap for bilateral engagement by the Foreign Ministers in October 2025.
The two Prime Ministers discussed cooperation in the fields of trade and investment, defence, education, space, science and technology, and energy. Carney expressed support for the Al Summit to be hosted by India in February 2026.
Later, a statement from Carney’s office said that he accepted Modi’s invitation to visit India in early 2026.
On November 5th, the Vancouver Canucks held their annual Diwali Night celebration — a tradition now in its ninth year — honouring the vibrant South Asian community and the spirit of Diwali and Bandi Chor Divas. The Canucks hosted the Chicago Blackhawks on this special evening, and while the final score didn’t go Vancouver’s way, the night was a resounding win both inside and outside the arena.
Canucks Diwali Night
Festivities began on the plaza, where fans were greeted with complimentary chai samples from Chai Wagon, energetic Garba performances, and DJ Heer spinning the latest bhangra hits. Outside on the plaza, Hockey Night in Canada Punjabi teamed up with Canucks legend Kirk McLean for a special meet-and-greet, giving fans a chance to connect with cultural icons and Canucks history.
Inside the arena, Diwali celebrations continued with special host Neera
Arora guiding the evening. During intermission, fans were treated to electrifying Punjabi bhangra performances featuring Intense scratching beats, lighting up Rogers Arena with infectious energy. The entertainment lineup also included a special appearance and performance by Jup Gill, who performed his hit song Launiya Pendiyan.
A Diwali Market was set up on the concourse, showcasing a variety of vendors including Dudh Soda, Tasty
Indian Bistro, Museum of Surrey " Our Connection to Hockey exhibit", among others. Fans were also able to purchase limited-edition Diwali merchandise, highlighted by the black skate–themed Diwali logo designed by local artist Suki Kaur.
The Canucks announced a $20,000 donation to Guru Nanak’s Free Kitchen, recognizing their long-standing service and the opening of their new centre in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.
The night also drew a number of notable celebrities, including Jazzy B, Neeru Bajwa, Tarannum Thind, Wally Oppal, Robin Bawa and the Bollywood Boyz adding even more star power to the celebration. Members of the Hockey Night in Canada Punjabi broadcast team were also in attendance, including Harpreet Pandher, Randip Janda, Taqdeer Thindal, and Gurpreet Sian — proudly representing the community on a night built around cultural connection and hockey pride.
Prospera Credit Union Spreads Holiday Cheer Through 14th Annual Youth Angel Tree Project
Prospera Credit Union’s 14th Annual Youth Angel Tree Project is once again bringing holiday cheer to local youth in need. This heartwarming initiative is run in collaboration with the Archway Youth Resource Centre, which offers support services, street outreach, and crisis interventions for youth and families.
Community members can choose from about 70 tags at Prospera’s two Abbotsford branches. Each tag includes personalized gift suggestions for youth in need, ranging from cozy essentials like shoes, socks, and clothing to thoughtful items such as grocery store gift cards, household goods, books, and more.
“We are so excited for another Christmas Angel Tree! Spreading a little Christmas spirit from Prospera all around to our youth in the community is my favorite time of the whole year! It
truly touches my heart, and I couldn’t be more appreciative or grateful to everyone who makes this happen!” said Brandy Sundstrom, a youth worker at Archway.
Once the new gifts are brought back, Prospera staff assemble and wrap them, and Archway youth workers deliver the gifts directly to the recipients. Cassie Coers, a youth worker at Archway, shared her excitement for the initiative, saying she looks forward to it every year.
“It’s truly an amazing experience during a time that can be difficult for many, and this wonderful project helps bring so much joy to youth in need!”
“The Angel Tree Project is one of the most meaningful traditions we have at Prospera,” said Joanna Welsh, assistant manager of the Abbotsford branch.
“Seeing our members and staff come together to support local youth reminds us what community is all about. It’s a privilege to be part of something that makes such a positive impact.”
Community members wishing to participate can pick up a tag at one of the two Prospera branches in Abbotsford – 34630 DeLair Rd., or the West Oaks branch at 32700 South Fraser Way. Gifts must be returned to Prospera by December 12th.

Be cautious about what you bring to an end or the way in which you go about winding something up, especially if you think it will open up more choices. The situation will have to be revisited mid April next year. Other things would have changed by then. It might be wiser to let things take their own course right now.
Something that started off as a small thing when it comes to helping out somebody else that seems to keep on growing would be best dealt with now, especially if it is turning into a habit or interfering with your regular routines. It has probably taught you to take more notice of what is important to you, rather than getting distracted..
You can have success in getting something out of the way that has been on your mind for a while but the energy just hasn’t been there. Not that you will feel overly energised just yet. It is more a realisation that time is running out. You know you will feel a lot better once this is done, especially if others have a good view of it.
Something needs to be put into place once and for all so that you know what needs to be spent rather than other things coming up all the time. Whatever you do now can create changes that may not be fully implemented until next year, between January and April. You need to be straightforward and practical with any discussions.
New possibilities in the long term can begin to feel more probable or realistic. This could leave behind a level of personal doubt or insecurity. This can be tied to you becoming more aware of what has been important for a long time but needs to be modified in some way for the future. The second stage can occur January to April next year. rfsLIPl mhInf kwqk
New directions involving other people can be smooth running if things are done their way. While there might be a lot in common, their determination might clash with yours. If you have been attempting to come to an agreement, this might need to be left for now and revisited mid April as things will likely have changed by then.
Something is winding up on a personal level perhaps in ways you were not expecting that is generating thought of all sorts of possibilities in the long term. Someone can play a powerful role here. However it is to eventually settle will not become evident until January to April next year. Meanwhile just go with the flow.
There can be a willingness to let something go that has been a personal priority but doesn’t fit well with someone else. It will be more important to establish underlying stability in situations involving others. This can be temporary as other opportunities to focus on your wishes will arise next year from January to April. Patience can pay off.
The New Moon this week occurs in your sign providing you with the opportunity to generate changed directions on a personal level. Anything that has not been heading in the direction you had hoped might be better let go right now. Becoming more practical can appeal to you, especially when it comes to stability with finances.
There can be new directions building up in the background that will provide the opportunity to put a stable foundation in place. This is likely tied into the decisions of somebody else and something may need to wind up so they can take the next step. There could be more than one stage of development attached to this as well.
Changes in somebody else’s life may make you realise things are moving on and it will not be the same for you. This is encouraging you to think about what is important to you. It can actually be freeing you up to do so. This is a first stage. New people can come into your life, especially from January to April next year.
It might be time to develop a new attitude when it comes to commitments or obligations in your life, especially if they affect your finances. If you have accepted things without thinking, you could recognise this has to stop. This can only happen when you take the time to analyse what you can realistically manage and follow through.

Premier appoints new parliamentary secretaries for armed forces, primary care
Premier David Eby has appointed two parliamentary secretaries to support the work on key government priorities to grow the economy, deliver good jobs and strengthen services for British Columbians.
Darlene Rotchford, MLA for Esquimalt-Colwood, has been appointed parliamentary secretary for armed forces development and veterans affairs in the Ministry of Jobs and Economic Growth. Stephanie Higginson, MLA for Ladysmith-Oceanside, has been appointed parliamentary secretary for primary care access in the Ministry of Health.
“British Columbia is facing big challenges and even bigger opportunities, from strengthening our health-care system to growing good-paying jobs through the major defence and aerospace projects coming our way,” Premier Eby said. “Darlene and Stephanie bring deep experience, strong rela-
tionships and a proven commitment to public service to these new roles. These are the skills we need to make sure B.C.’s workers are qualified for good jobs with higher pay and that people get the primary care they need, when they need it.”
Rotchford previously served as parliamentary secretary for labour and as the provincial government’s military liaison.
“Our military keeps people in B.C. and across the globe safe and is a key player in our economic growth in areas like aerospace, technology and building,” Rotchford said. “As a military wife and a community member, I look forward to taking on this role and advocating for our hard-working forces members, families and veterans, and growing our economic capability through this work.”
Rotchford will build relationships with military organizations in the province and align skills training with emerging national defence needs. The Province’s Look West strategy aligns skills training with major projects, and some of the industries the government is looking to grow are aerospace, ship-building and defence. These are also areas in which Ottawa has signalled it will increase spending.
Higginson, after serving as chair of the government caucus, will support Josie Osborne, Minister of Health, in delivering on ensuring British Columbians are receiving the primary care they need when they need it most.
“Our government is laser-focused on building up the services people rely
on most, and the importance of strong and accessible primary care cannot be overstated,” Higginson said. “I know that people in my riding and across B.C. care deeply about reliable access to primary care, and I’m eager and ready to work with Minister Osborne on this crucial part of our health-care system.”
B.C. Proclaims Nov. 24 as 350th Anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur’s Martyrdom, Honouring Sikh Legacy and Human Rights
Surrey, B.C. - (Gurbaj Singh Brar)
The Province of British Columbia has officially proclaimed November 24, 2025, as the 350th Anniversary of the Martyrdom of Guru Tegh Ba-
hadur, honouring the ninth Sikh Guru’s historic sacrifice to defend religious freedom and human rights.
The proclamation, issued in the name of His Majesty King Charles III, recognizes the profound contributions of Sikhs to the cultural, social, and economic fabric of British Columbia since the early 1900s. It highlights Guru Tegh Bahadur’s legacy as a defender of oppressed communities and a symbol
of pluralism, courage, and interfaith respect.

The Honourable Nikki Sharma, Attorney General of British Columbia, formally read the proclamation today at Singh Sabha Gurdwara Surrey. She presented a framed copy to the Gurdwara’s Management Committee in the presence of devotees.
Also in attendance were Jessie Sunner, Minister of Post Secondary Education and Future Skills and Parliamentary Secretary Amna Shah, who addressed
the congregation and emphasized the importance of preserving the values of human rights and religious freedom.
The Gurdwara Committee honoured the visiting ministers with plaques in appreciation of their support.
Prominent Sikh scholar Gian Singh Sandhu spoke on the spiritual and historical significance of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji’s martyrdom and its enduring message of justice and universal rights.
The proclamation reaffirms British Columbia’s commitment to diversity, inclusion, and respect for all faiths.
People encouraged to prepare for winter weather
As B.C. moves into colder seasonal weather, people are encouraged to prepare for low temperatures, snowfall and storms this winter.
People can plan ahead by making sure homes, vehicles and emergency supplies are ready for winter conditions.
PreparedBC’s Severe Winter Weather and Storm Preparedness Guide provides tips to stay safe and warm during extreme weather. These include:
preparing a home emergency plan and well-stocked emergency kit;
considering home winterizing steps, such as insulation and weather stripping, and taking steps to prevent pipes from freezing;
checking that heating systems, smoke alarms and carbon-monoxide detectors are working properly; keeping extra blankets, flashlights and batteries on hand in case of a power outage;
checking the Environment and Climate Change Canada website or app for weather alerts and updates;
knowing the symptoms of cold-related illnesses and checking on family, friends and neighbours who may be at risk; and
wearing several layers of warm clothing and covering exposed skin when going outside.
Additionally, people travelling in B.C. should plan for changing road conditions, allow extra time for travel and check DriveBC’s website for current road updates. People are encouraged to prepare vehicles for winter weather before travel and ensure vehicles are properly equipped with winter tires (mountain snowflake or M+S), which are required on many rural or mountainous B.C. highways from Oct. 1 until April 30. Consider packing a vehicle emergency kit before leaving home.
The Province works proactively with communities to support local emergency-preparedness and response actions that protect people during extreme weather. People seeking a warm indoor space can check their community’s website or social media channels for the nearest emergency warming centre or visit EmergencyMapBC.ca.

From Ice to Impact: Local Athlete Builds Momentum in Combat Sports
A former Abbotsford Pilots forward has successfully transitioned from hockey to mixed martial arts, maintaining an undefeated 2-0 amateur record following another decisive performance in Vancouver.
Andrew Keras, who trains at Mamba MMA Gym in Abbotsford under the guidance of coaches Devlin Crew, Kultar Gill, and Ahmed Khatib, secured a first-round technical knockout victory over Kyle Clard at All Martial Arts Championships 45 at Fraserview Hall on Nov. 20. The bout came to an end when Clard declined to continue after the conclusion of the opening round. Keras made his MMA debut earlier this year at AMA 43, defeating
Roper by third-round TKO. He has also stepped into the kickboxing arena, earning a split decision win over Kai Robidoux at Okanagan Fighting Championship 2 in June.
The 22-year-old St. John Brebeuf Regional Secondary School graduate previously split the 2022–23 PJHL season between the Abbots-
ford Pilots and the Mission City Outlaws, recording six points and accumulating 151 penalty minutes across 29 games. During the 2021–22 campaign, he played for the Hampton Roads Whalers in the USPHL Elite, finishing with five points and 109 penalty minutes in 23 appearances.
Keras continues to sharpen his skills as he builds momentum in the amateur fight scene, representing Abbotsford on a growing competitive stage. For more on the gym and its programs, visit mambamma.com.
Province reviews public post-secondary system to ensure longterm sustainability
The Province is launching an independent review to strengthen the public postsecondary education system and ensure it is sustainable and well-positioned to support people in British Columbia and B.C.’s economic growth.
“One of the key pillars of the government’s jobs and economic plan, Look West, is ensuring British Columbia has the skilled workforce required to meet future challenges,” said Jessie Sunner, Minister of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills. “A strong and resilient public post-secondary system is fundamental to building that workforce and driving B.C.’s economic growth. Public post-secondary institutions must be prepared to respond to these evolving needs.”
Public post-secondary institutions in B.C. are facing significant financial pressures, largely due to factors such as unilateral federal reductions to study permits for international students, global inflation and declining domestic enrolment. As a result, many post-secondary institutions are in a critical position, with widening gaps between revenues and expenses. To address this, the ministry is launching a review with a holistic approach to sector-
wide sustainability to establish a clear path forward to stabilize institutions in the short term and to build a foundation for long-term financial sustainability and operational resilience.
The independent review is being led by Don Avison, KC, former B.C. deputy minister and former board chair of Emily Carr University of Art + Design. Avison will deliver a report with recommendations by March 15, 2026, that will guide government’s work to keep the system accessible, affordable, sustainable and aligned with provincial economic priorities.
“The review presents an opportunity to look at both near- and longer-term sustainability issues in post-secondary education and training. I welcome the opportunity to consider how best to address the challenges that lie ahead,” said Avison. “I look forward to hearing the perspectives of students, faculty, staff, institutional leaders, and First Nations and other Indigenous partners.”
This review will ensure B.C.’s public postsecondary system continues to deliver high-quality, relevant programs that are responsive to the needs of people in the province and align with labour market
needs, while balancing the need to maintain regional access and recognize the economic and social contributions institutions make to their local areas.
In 2021 and 2022, the ministry worked
Governance and operations: Examine the structure of B.C.’s public post-secondary system to reduce duplication, streamline service delivery and improve overall efficiency.
closely with the post-secondary sector to gather input about how the Province funds operations at B.C.’s public institutions. Because of the dramatically changed landscape, the information collected three years ago no longer addresses the environment that post-secondary institutions face.
This review takes a broad, holistic approach to sector-wide sustainability and will cover the following areas:
Program delivery: Identify ways to deliver programs more effectively within existing budgets, ensuring that institutions are effectively preparing graduates with relevant skills and training.
Financial sustainability: Explore broad opportunities to address both short-term and long-term financial challenges.
