Dave Sidhu named BC United candidate for Abbotsford West riding Dave Sidhu is a dedicated community leader, tirelessly advocating for his constituents while maintaining a strong commitment to family values, all driven by his passion to shape a brighter future for his community.

Dedicated to fostering positive change, Dave’s primary focus lies in improving health care access and tackling infrastructure challenges in Abbotsford West. Additionally, he aims to champion affordable housing initiatives, empower local businesses, create economic growth opportunities, enhance school nutrition programs, update education standards for improved learning outcomes, and improve public safety through bolstering community policing, supporting crime prevention programs, and addressing the root causes of crime. Currently, Dave is a City Councillor for Abbotsford, where he also serves as the Chair of the Development, Transportation, and Infrastructure Advisory Committee, in addition to his membership on the Fraser Valley Regional District Board. With a professional background in infrastructure and health care, complemented by his role as General Manager for The Patrika, Dave is uniquely equipped to address the community’s most urgent challenges. Dave’s unwavering commitment extends beyond public service; he is a devoted husband to his wife, Ranjna, and a loving father to their two daughters, Arinna and Amarah. It is this deeply rooted family-centered approach that propels Dave’s dedication to ensuring that every family in the community has access to quality healthcare and essential services.

Dave believes in the vision and capabilities of the BC United team under Kevin Falcon’s leadership. With a strong focus on affordability, health care improvement, and economic development, Dave is prepared to advocate for the needs of Abbotsford West residents and work towards a better future for all.

I am passionate about facilitating growth in Abbotsford West and addressing real challenges like the housing and cost-of-living crises, expanding space at the Abbotsford Hospital, finding parking solutions for truck drivers, addressing the growing crime rate and providing support for local businesses. But it’s not just local issues I promise to fight for — across British Columbia I am passionate about fighting to renew school nutrition programs, enhance the business sector, and address the challenges faced by our critical agriculture sector.

As we celebrate the birth of the Khalsa and the harvest season, I am honored to extend my warmest greetings to all those who observe this auspicious occasion.

Vaisakhi is a time to reflect on the values of community, equality, and compassion that are at the heart of Sikhism. It is also a time to recognize the contributions that the Sikh community has made to our city, our country, and our world.

As your city councillor, I am proud to represent a diverse and vibrant community that includes Sikhs and people of many different cultures and backgrounds. Together, we are building a better future for all of us, and Vaisakhi reminds us of the importance of coming together to celebrate our differences and our shared humanity.

I wish you all a joyous and prosperous Vaisakhi. May this special day bring you peace, happiness, and blessings in abundance. ivsfKI iswK Drm dy ivwc BfeIcfrqf, smfnqf aqy dieaf dIaF kdrF-kImqF nUM drsfAux df smF hY. ieh smF vI hY ik iswK kOm ny sfzy Èihr, sfzy dyÈ aqy sfzI dunIaF leI jo Xogdfn pfieaf hY, Aus nUM pCfixaf jfvy. quhfzy istI kONslr hox dy nfqy, mYnUM iewk vMn-suvMny BfeIcfry dI numfieMdgI krn 'qy mfx hY ijs ivwc iswK aqy bhuq sfry vwK-vwK siBafcfrF aqy ipCokV vfly lok Èfml hn. iekwTy iml ky, asIN afpxy sfiraF leI iewk ibhqr BivwK df inrmfx kr rhy hF, aqy ivsfKI sfnUM afpxy mqBydF aqy sfzI sFJI mfnvqf nUM mnfAux leI iekwTy afAux dI mhwqqf dI Xfd idvfAuNdI hY. mYN quhfnUM sfiraF nUM KuÈhfl ivsfKI dI kfmnf krdf hF. ieh Kfs idn quhfzy aqy quhfzy pirvfr leI ÈFqI, KuÈIaF aqy BrpUr asIsF lY ky afvy. ivsfKI dIaF lwK lwK vDfeIaF! dyv iswDU Dave Sidhu aYbtsPorz istI kONslr City Councillor, Abbotsford PAGE 38

In Memory Of Deep Kaur Gill

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our family matriarch, Deep Kaur Gill, on the afternoon of April 1, 2024. She passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones.

Deep was born on May 27, 1924 to the parents Khem and Sham Kaur Sidhu and lived in the village of Sherpura, Punjab with her brother Ram (Mukhtiar sister in law) and sister Surjeet Gill (late Zora brother in law). She moved to the village of Dhudike upon marriage to Jagir Singh Gill (late) and raised their five children. Deep and Jagir then immigrated to Canada in 1975 and settled in Mission, later residing in Surrey, Delta and Abbotsford.

She leaves behind a beautiful legacy through her children; Late Paul (Surinder) Gill, Sukhdev (Manjit) Gill, and daughters Harbans (Jullundur) Toor, Jaswant (Chhinder) Sandhu, and Satinder (Gus) Cheema. Deep was blessed with 13 grandchildren and 21 great grandchildren. Her life journey was one marked by love and devotion to her family. She was a pillar of strength to her family providing unwavering support and guidance.

Deep’s favourite pastime was knitting and going on daily walks. She lived a healthy lifestyle and took good care of her nutrition. Deep found solace with her daily prayers and routines. Deep’s warm smile and gentle manner will be missed. Her legacy of love and kindness, which she generously spread to everyone, will live on in memory.

Funeral Services were held on April 10, 2024. We extend our sincere gratitude to all our family and friends for your unwavering love and support.

Something could become very obvious where somebody else is concerned, which could be surprising. This is not a time to react quickly. You have moved into a cycle until May where you need to sit back and contemplate before you move forward with anything. This situation may get you to question what is important in life.

Activities with friends or in any situation that involves you with a group of people could get busier than you anticipate. You could get annoyed with somebody who wants to take the lead or assume authority. It might make you realise where you can easily be left with a lot of the work if you just go along with these things.

This would be a good time to May to start working on any future goals you have been formulating since mid February. This might also be a time where you will get a better idea of the commitment involved. Just how much it might cut into the time you like to have available to relax, could certainly begin to get your attention.

Many things can come to light, particularly with home and family, over the next 6 months. Endings and new beginnings can be part of the mix. You have come out of a challenging time when it comes to others that has been in effect since mid February.

Up to May focus on future possibilities that could eventually be pursued.

You can become busier than ever over the next 6 months when it comes to involvement with other people. This could entail a lot of running around but it might also be more on the information or communication sides of things. It can be difficult to know where somebody else is coming from between now and May.

Others could place many expectations upon you from now to May in a manner that will make you feel guilty if you do not comply.

Some of this could have started from mid February but now is the time to stand up and fight for whatever you consider is a fair thing. Don’t be put off because it is hard to work out what somebody else really thinks.

The Lunar Eclipse this week occurs in your sign. This can result in all sorts of personal recognition or generate situations where you are seen. This can be the case for the next 6 months. It could also encourage you to transform things about yourself or matters that involve you, so that you can gain greater pleasure from life.

The more effort you have put into getting some sort of order in place since mid February, the greater will be the pleasure you experience from that up to May. You can probably relax a bit but might need to be careful of being led astray by others who may not be approaching things seriously. It is better to stay on the practical path.

You need to put your energies into getting a good structure in place up to May. If things need to be done at home, leave them no longer. Family matters could come up as well, especially where there are differences of opinion. This could shine a light on things important to you of which you need to be highly mentally determined.

Don’t enter into any agreements too quickly up to May, without giving yourself time to think about the commitments attached and just how much this can increase your levels of responsibility. There will be invitations and social activity in the mix as well.

Though enjoyable, you could find this will interrupt more practical plans.

There has been the opportunity to put new things in place that suit you personally since mid February. You could now become aware of what this could open up to in the future – the next 6 months can be important.

Up to May, you need to be mindful of your finances. There can be the temptation to spend on impulse.

Mars has moved into your sign, where it will remain until the 1st May. This should lift your energy level as well as your self confidence. Since mid February it may have been difficult to push yourself but now that should be a different matter. The only thing you have to watch is doing things on impulse. Much can be accomplished.
