While B.C. Liberal policies are directly increasing and deepening poverty for many families, New Democrats are offering British Columbians a path out of poverty with the introduction of the Poverty Reduction and Economic Inclusion Act.B.C. has had the highest rate of overall poverty in Canada for 13 years and the highest child poverty rate for 10 years. The time for action is long overdue, said New Democrat social development critic Michelle Mungall. New Democrats are offering British Colum-bians a path out of poverty with the Poverty Reduction and Economic Inclusion Act. This legislation will help identify and change bad policies that intensify poverty while also de-veloping real programs that help people access training and jobs to better their lives.British Columbia remains one of only two provinces in Canada without a legislated plan to tackle poverty. At the same time, child poverty rates in the province have been an average of 34 per cent higher than the national rate for more than a decade.Sky-high poverty rates are directly tied to B.C. Liberal policies such as the child support clawback that takes money from B.C.s poorest children. The government could begin reducing poverty immediately by allowing children of single parents receiving income assistance to keep their child support, said New Democrat leader John Horgan.

Faith in Action, a multi-faith organization devoted to addressing the root causes of poverty in B.C. supports this approach.Government policies can ease poverty or make it worse, said Peggy Wilmot of Faith in Action. Thats why Faith in Action

supports a poverty reduction plan for British Columbia as the first

step towards a government that recognizes the inherent dignity and worth of all citizens.

Statistically, North Americans with diabetes are doing a better job of meeting their care goals but this number is increasing very slowly and about half of diabetics are still not reaching their goals for blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol. This is troubling considering the heavy toll dia-betes exacts on people. So, what are the goals? A1C below 7%, blood pressure below 130/80 mm Hg, LDL cholesterol below 2.0 mmol/L - and no smoking.

The Glycemic Index is a useful tool for diabetics to assess the quality of the carbohydrates they consume. Carbohy-drates, converted to sugar in the blood stream, are sources of energy and the goal is to manage how much is taken in and how much of a blood sugar spike they generate. Check out: www.the-gi-diet.org/glycemicindexchart and aim to use foods from the green zone rather than the yellow or red zones.

Food labels hold valuable information for everyone but particularly for diabet-ics. However, many people find the in-

formation provided overwhelming. Pay attention to the serving size, especially if comparing foods. Aim for little or no fat (especially saturated and trans fats) and low salt (ideally, less than 1 mg for each calorie of the serving). Fibre is good a good source is 5 gm or more per serving), but minimize sugar, which can directly lead to elevated blood sugar.

Diabetics know that carbohydrates are the source of sugar in their bloodstreams, but carbohydrates are also necessary as an energy source for their bodies. Every-one is recommended to consume whole grains or complex carbohydrates but how to easily know what is good? Check the food label and compare the grams of carbohydrate to the grams of fibre a desirable ratio is 10-to-1, or less.

Sometimes to Win, You Have to Change the Game

Much-awai ted Disney f i lm Million Dol-lar Arm set to hit the box office across Canada

In 2007, entrepreneurial sports agent JB Bernstein staged a reality show in India to find promising baseball talents amongst the cricket-loving popu-lation. Bernstein says, The hope was to find the next Yao Ming (a retired Chinese NBA basketball star), except for baseball. Statistically speaking, in a country of 1.2 bil-lion people, the odds are good that you will find an undiscovered raw talent. The hope was to capture all those cricket fans and turn them towards baseball.

Based on a true story, sports agent JB Bernstein (played by Jon Hamm) finds that business has changed and things arent going well for his career. In a last-ditch effort to save his liveli-hood, he concocts a scheme to find baseballs next great pitching ace. Hoping to find a young cricket pitcher he can turn into a Major League Baseball star, JB and his partner Ash travel to India to produce a reality show competition called The Mil-lion Dollar Arm.

With the help of cantankerous but eagle-eyed retired baseball scout Ray Poitevint (Alan Arkin), he discovers Dinesh Patel (played by Madhur Mit-tal from Slumdog Millionaire) and Rinku Singh (played by Suraj Sharma from Life of Pi), two 18-year-old boys who have no idea about playing baseball, yet have a knack for throw-ing a fastball. Hoping to sign them to major league contracts and make a quick buck, JB brings the boys home to America to train.

While the Americans are definitely out of their element in India, the boys, who have never left their rural

villages, are equally challenged when they come to the United States. As the boys learn the finer points of baseball, JB, with the help of his charming friend Brenda (Lake Bell), learns valuable life lessons about teamwork, commitment and what it means to be a family.

Music for the film was composed by A.R. Rahman. The soundtrack, which has seven original songs, is set for re-lease on May 13, 2014. Iggy Azalea, KT Tunstall, Sukhwinder Singh and Canadas Raghav Mathur collaborat-ed with Rahman for the soundtrack. Kendrick Lamar has also recorded a song that will be featured in the film. The end credits for the film features one of Rahmans 1990s Tamil com-positions sung by K. S. Chithra and Unnikrishnan. The album has tracks in English, Hindi and Tamil.

Million Dollar Arm is directed by Craig Gillespie and also stars Bill Paxton, Tom House, and Aasif Man-dvi. The film is produced by Joe Roth (Roth Films) and also includes Palak Patel as and executive producer.

The film will be released in theatres on May 16, 2014.

As a man of firsts, Dr. Malwinder Dhami is no stranger to taking the lead role in his philanthropic giving. Dhami is a keen supporter of the University of the Fraser Valley and recently established his first endow-ment, the Dhami Family Endow-ment Leadership Award. This is the first UFV endowment established by an Indo-Canadian family, and it is from a family that is well known within the local community for its high regard for education and love of UFV.

Dr. Dhami is an ideal friend for UFV, says Hilary Beard, director of university advancement.

His warmth and friendly nature are particularly noted at the public sessions of the Board meetings, where he is a frequent attendee. Dr. Dhamis original ideas and eager-ness to make a positive impact in students lives make him a shining star of encouragement and sup-

port for UFVs U n i v e r s i t y Advancement team.

T h e U n i -versity of the Fraser Val -ley is deeply grateful for our long-time friendship and support from Dr. Dhami, adds Beard. F r o m h i s generous financial support in early 2003 and active participation in development of the Centre for Indo-Canadian Studies, to his lat-est family endowment, we at UFV acknowledge Dr. Dhamis unwav-ering support and generosity with deep appreciation and thanksgiving for one of our finest neighbours and friends. Dr. Dhami is sharing his story to encourage others to also

give so that each person can share in changing lives and building the communitys future here at UFV.

From Dhamis perspective, giving is natural and simply a way of life. He has found satisfaction in helping others, and is well known in UFVs Dental Assistant program for ex-tending a helping hand through his openness to students in assisting them gain valuable hours in his

professional dental practice in Abbots-ford. In a recent v is i t to UFVs Den ta l C l in i c , Dhami pledged a day of his time to help screen chil-dren, so they can be examined by the students.

I am always so warmly greeted by UFV President Mark Evered, and

by all the staff and faculty at the university. Whenever I attend Board meetings, I am greeted like a friend, says Dhami.

In addition to extending an on-going helping hand to individual students, Dhami was influential in the establishment of the Centre for Indo-Canadian Studies (CICS) at UFV. He made the first donation toward it to UFVs then-president,

Skip Bassford. The gift initiated fundraising to establish CICS and was a catalyst for others in the com-munity to stand behind the Centres vision with their financial support. Dhami has served on the CICS Ad-visory Council since its inception.

Dhami was also the first donor to the development of the Peace and Conflict Studies program at the university in September 2012. Part of Dhamis recent giving includes a symbol to represent ongoing sup-port: his endowment is $25,001 that extra dollar is the first step to continuous growth.

I know that Dr. Dhamis gener-osity, his personal investment in the future of others, is driven by his gratitude to those who helped him, added Dr. Mark Evered, UFV president and vice-chancellor. I am deeply and personally inspired by his visionary leadership, volunteer service, financial support and espe-cially his friendship.

Dhamis long-term generosity valued by UFV

BC Hydro Refutes Metro Vancouver Incinerator Business Case

BC Hydro has responded to Metro Vancouvers newly updated busi-ness case for its garbage burning plan by criticizing Metro Van-couver for its assumption that BC Hydro will pay above market rates for electricity produced in the new facility.

The market rate for electricity in BC is about $24/MWh, but according to the updated busi-ness case, Metro Vancouver has assumed that BC Hydro will pay four times that amount ($100/MWh) for electricity generated from incineration.

In the April 30, 2014 letter from BC Hydro, addressed to Metro Vancouver CAO Carol Mason, BC Hydro offers stern clarifica-tions in response to the new busi-ness plan:

The new WTEF was not part of the IRPs [BC Hydros 30-year Integrated Resource Plan] base resource plan for securing future sources of electricity.

The new WTEF does not qualify for the Standing Offer Programthe energy prices that have been quoted by Metro Vancouver are not necessarily for comparable product under comparable supply/demand conditions

At this point in time, BC Hydro has made no commitment to pur-chase energy from a new WTEF, nor has a commitment been made regarding a price for that energy.

We applaud BC Hydro for step-ping in and doing the right thing to protect the ratepayers of BC from this ill-advised project, said Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) Vice-Chair and Ab-botsford City Councilor Patricia Ross. The FVRD notes that the swift communication from BC Hydro in response to the updated Business Case which was released last week on April 24, 2014, is an encouraging sign that the Province is watching closely, and does not want citizens across BC to be on the hook for subsidizing dirty power.

FVRD Board Chair and Chilli-wack Mayor Sharon Gaetz cau-tions, This should serve as a red flag for the citizens of the Lower Mainland. Not only has Metro Vancouver clearly overestimated the dollar value that it can secure from BC Hydro to bolster its flawed business case, but they have also routinely played down the health implications associated with burning garbage. Chair Gaetz adds, Thank you to Mayor Richard Stewart and his council for asking Metro for a business plan. Through this business plan we have learned that the price tag for this behemoth has quietly risen by 13%. This should infu-riate taxpayers, and to add insult to injury, it seems that Metro Vancouver has not even done the most elementary business plan.

Metro Vancouver previously noted that unless they can secure this dramatically higher rate, the business plan for their incinerator is not financially viable.

Justice Summit focuses on family justice

Today British Columbias third Justice Summit wrapped up a two-day meeting focused on family justice.

The summit brought together about 70 justice leaders from the judiciary, legal profession, dispute resolution organiza-tions, community agencies in-volved with family justice ser-vices, the academic community and Ministry of Justice.

This diverse group of partici-pants met at the University of British Columbia for a dialogue about British Columbias fam-ily justice system, its perfor-mance and strategic direction.

Over the course of two days, participants focused on how to better serve family justice system users, encourage out-of-court dispute resolution, and measure the systems per-formance.

A report detailing the discus-sions will be delivered next month to Attorney General and Justice Minister Suzanne An-ton and the Chief Justices and Chief Judge of the Provinces three courts.

Justice Summits are held at least once a year as required under the Justice Reform and Transparency Act (JRTA) passed in spring 2013. The JRTA created several new consultative processes that empower sector-wide plan-ning and enhance dialogue over goals, objectives and performance across the justice system.

The act also requires the min-ister to establish a Justice and Public Safety Council, drawn from senior leadership respon-sible for the administration of justice and public safety in the province, as well as from other qualified individuals. The council was struck in April 2013.

Child-care providers throughout the prov-ince are encouraged to apply for a total of $14.8 mil-lion in major capital funding to create new licensed child-care spaces for B.C. kids.

Starting today, non-profit child-care providers can apply for up to $500,000, while pri-vate child-care organizations can apply for up to $250,000. Funding can be used to:

Build a new child care facility, including the cost of buying land or a building.

Assemble a modular building and develop a site.

Renovate an existing building.

Buy eligible equipment (in-cluding playground equip-ment) and furnishings to sup-port new child-care spaces in an existing facility.

Preference will be given to applications that will create child-care spaces in under-served areas of B.C., such as Surrey, Abbotsford and Lang-ford, and on school grounds, where children can smoothly transition from early years

programs, to the classroom, to after-school care. Construc-tion is expected to begin this fiscal year.

Applications will be accepted during three intake periods:

May 2 - June 30, 2014

Sept. 1 - Oct. 31, 2014

Feb. 1 - March 31, 2015

Under the B.C. Early Years Strategy, the Province aims to support the creation up to 1,000 new child-care spaces between now and March 2015, and will also invest $17.1 million next fiscal year for an additional 1,000 spaces. This will build on the approxi-mately 104,000 spaces that government currently supports throughout B.C.

Since 2001, the Government of B.C. has invested more than $35 million in major capital funding to help com-munity partners create more than 6,500 licensed child-care spaces.

Todays announcement coin-cides with the start of Child Care Month in B.C., a time

to celebrate the work of thou-sands of caring and committed child-care operators and early childhood educators across the province. The B.C. govern-ment is also recognizing the extraordinary work of child-care providers by proclaiming May 15 as Child Care Provider Appreciation Day.

Quotes:

Stephanie Cadieux, Minister of Children and Family Develop-ment

The goal of the B.C. Early Years Strategy is to make life easier for families by giving them more child-care options. Families have told us that a seamless day of child care and school is very important to them, and one of the best ways to do that is to have more child care available on school grounds.

Our goal is to create an ad-ditional 2,000 quality, licensed child-care spaces over the next two years, with the long-term goal of opening up to 13,000 new spaces over the next eight years.

Wayne Robertson, chair, Pro-vincial Child Care Council

New licensed child-care spaces are needed in B.C., and capital funding to create them is welcome. Implemen-tation of the B.C. Early Years Strategy is key to ensuring that the children of our province continue to be well cared for by the dedicated early years and childcare sector.

Tyler Summers, chairperson, School Age Childcare Associa-tion of BC

It can be a challenge for fami-lies to find quality, affordable child care in B.C. Creating these new licensed child care spaces with a focus on school grounds will help lessen the strain on families, and provide safe, nurturing learning envi-ronments for children.

Quick Facts:

The B.C. Early Years Strategy is an eight-year government commitment to improve the accessibility, affordability and quality of early-years pro-grams and services for families with young children.

To make child care more af-fordable for families, govern-ment is introducing the B.C. Early Childhood Tax Benefit starting in 2015. The benefit will provide $146 million annually to approximately 180,000 families with children under the age of six years (up to $660 a year per child).

The Ministry of Children and Family Development also provides child care subsidies to help low income families afford child care helping ap-proximately 45,000 children each year.

The Early Years Strategy builds on the $1 billion per

year government spends on early learning and childhood development initiatives, ser-vices and supports, including:

Success by 6, Children First and Aboriginal early childhood development programs.

Full-day kindergarten.

Programs that support healthy pregnancy, birth and infancy.

Early childhood development care and learning program investments, including public health nursing, Ready, Set, Learn programs and Strong-Start BC early learning pro-grams.

A variety of programs, services and supports to address the specific needs of children and youth with special needs.

The ministry will invest $292 million on child care in 2014-15, a 38% increase since 2000-01.

As part of Emergency Pre-paredness Week, British Co-lumbians are encouraged to take three simple steps to prepare for disasters and provide for the safety and comfort of their families and loved ones - know the risks, make a plan, and get a kit.

Emergency Preparedness Week takes place from May 4-10, 2014. During this Canada-wide awareness week, events are taking place throughout British Columbia to increase the capacity of individuals and families, businesses, schools, governments and industry to resist the effects of a major disaster.

Emergency Management BC (EMBC) also is launching the first of a series of online videos to help motivate British Columbians to get prepared. In the initial video, Thirsty, British Columbians can ask themselves if they know where their water is going to come from during a major disas-ter: http://www.emergencyinfobc.gov.bc.ca/campaigns/emergency-preparedness-week-2014.html

Encouraging personal preparedness is one piece of a multi-pronged ap-proach being undertaken by EMBC to improve the provincial response to a catastrophic earthquake. Also underway is a provincewide stake-holder consultation on earthquake preparedness.

The consultation, chaired by Henry Renteria, will be used to inform a long-term plan for enhancing cata-strophic earthquake preparedness. More than a dozen communities in B.C. will be locations for regional consultation meetings in the coming months including Chilliwack, Ab-botsford, Metro Vancouver, Victoria, Nanaimo, Port Alberni, Courtenay, Port McNeill, Terrace, Prince Rupert, the Village of Queen Charlotte on Haida Gwaii, and Kelowna. Stake-holders in other areas of B.C. will have the opportunity to participate in meetings via teleconference.

Quotes:

Attorney General and Minister of Justice Suzanne Anton

During emergencies like an earth-quake, everyone has a role to play in public safety. It starts with individuals and families being prepared to take care of their own basic needs for a minimum of the first 72 hours. Dur-ing Emergency Preparedness Week, I challenge British Columbians to take action and get prepared. Our govern-ment also has a role to play and we are continuing those efforts through our comprehensive earthquake con-sultations.

Henry Renteria, chair of the Earth-quake Consultation

We know from experience that dur-ing an emergency the first person to come and offer help is likely to be a family member or neighbour. Know-ing what disasters to be aware of, how you will re-connect with loved ones, and being able to meet your families unique needs until help arrives these things make a big difference when the unimaginable happens.

Quick Facts:

The theme of Emergency Prepared-ness Week 2014 is Know the risks. Although the consequences of disas-ters can be similar, knowing the risks specific to communities and regions can help people better prepare.

Making a plan will help families know what to do in an emergency, where they will go and how they will re-connect. Putting together an emer-gency plan is quick and easy and can take less than 20 minutes.

During an emergency, everyone will need some basic supplies. People may need to get by without power or tap water. Be prepared to be self-sufficient for at least 72 hours in an emergency. Most people have many of the items they need to assemble an emergency preparedness kit in their homes.

The chair of B.C.s Earthquake Consultation, Henry Renteria, previ-ously held the positions of director of California Governors Office of Emergency Services and the direc-tor of the City of Oakland Office of Emergency Services.

British Columbians urged to prepare for emergenciesWhile in Oakland, he managed the citys response to the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. He was also in Japan in 1995 when the Kobe earth-quake struck. He remained in Japan for 10 days and personally witnessed the response and early recovery ef-forts.

Earthquake consultation locations were chosen in order to allow neigh-bouring local governments and First

Nations in those areas most vulner-able to catastrophic earthquakes to come together and discuss issues, priorities and opportunities for seis-mic preparedness.

Renteria will report back to gov-ernment by the end of 2014 with recommendations for enhancing and refining a long-term earthquake pre-paredness plan and informing long-term preparedness priorities.

Recess to be cancelled at Abbotsford schoolsWith teacher job action continuing across the province and no immediate settlement in sight, the Abbotsford School District has decided to cancel the recess break in middle and elementary schools until teacher job action ends.

Recess breaks typically require significant involvement of teaching staff, notes Su-perintendent Kevin Godden. Since Stage 1 job action was initiated on April 23rd, the district has deployed its management staff to provide supervision at those times. As job action continues, this creates a challenge for these district staff who are away from their important responsibilities for significant por-tions of the day. This ongoing interruption to their work has compromised the ability of our district to operate smoothly.

This measure is being taken to ensure that each school can adequately supervise students, ensure safety, and to secure the ongoing operation of other district services.

Recess at elementary and middle schools will be cancelled as of Monday, May 12th

onwards, until the BCTF job action is over. As a result, elementary and middle schools will start their day 15 to 20 minutes later. Sec-ondary school schedules will not be affected. District bus transportation schedules are being adjusted to align with revised school start times. Parents of elementary children who take a school bus will be contacted by the districts Transportation department to confirm the later pick up times. The district does not anticipate this will impact bus pick up times for middle and secondary students. All schools will end their day at the usual time.

In his letter to parents/guardians, Superinten-dent Godden asked parents please arrange to have your child arrive at school close to the school starting time and to leave immediately after dismissal, since there will be limited supervision of students at the school during these times.

Any new information will be provided to parents/guardians through direct communi-cations and the district website www.sd34.bc.ca.

With summer on its way, British Columbians are not the only ones getting ready for the warm weather. Bears are coming out of hibernation and other animals, such as cougars and coyotes, are becoming more active, increasing the chance of human-wildlife encounters.

To prevent human-wildlife con-flicts, British Columbians need to do their part by putting away food attractants including improperly stored garbage, bird seed and pet food. Access to these non-natural food sources is the main cause of human-wildlife conflicts in B.C.

Bears emerging from hibernation are looking for food and will quickly learn how to get at convenient food sources. This leads to food-conditioned behaviour and increases potential conflicts with people. Whether it is a dirty barbecue or food scraps in composts, bears need to locate food only once to develop a feeding pattern and will continue to return to the area.

Other animals, such as young cougars, roam wide in search of unoccupied territory, increasing their chances of wandering into residential communities, parks and campgrounds. Coyote pups are born in the spring and by July, are at-tempting to hunt on their own.

For advice on reducing conflicts with wildlife such as bears, cougars, coyotes and deer visit the Wild-SafeBC website at: http://www.wildsafebc.com/front

Communities where attractants are managed properly have seen a decline in related human-wildlife conflicts and in the number of ani-mals destroyed.

The public is encouraged to re-port human-wildlife conflicts that threaten public safety or result in significant property damage by calling the Report All Poachers and

Polluters (RAPP) line, toll free at 1 877 952-7277 (RAPP), or visit the RAPP website at: www.rapp.bc.ca

Quick facts:

Its important that you know what to do when you encounter wildlife such as bears, cougars, coyotes and wolves in urban areas.

Do not provide food to wildlife.

Remain calm and never approach the animal.

Always keep the animal in front of you (never turn your back) and back away slowly (never run).

Keep children and pets close or pick them up. If possible, bring children and pets indoors.

If the animal appears interested in you or approaches:

Make yourself look as large as pos-sible by waving your arms above your head.

Make loud noises, shout at the animal in a loud, aggressive voice or bang pots and pans and throw objects like rocks and sticks.

Under the Wildlife Act, conserva-tion officers can issue a $230 ticket or notice for a court appearance to residents who do not secure attrac-tants. Residents who leave out items that attract dangerous wildlife could also be issued a Dangerous Wildlife Protection Order. Failure to comply with an order carries a $575 fine.

Relocating wildlife is neither vi-able nor a long-term solution to managing these kinds of conflicts. When wildlife is relocated, it most often returns to conflict situations, or it does not survive as it has to compete with already established populations.

In 2013-14, the Conservation Of-ficer Service received 28,063 calls regarding human-wildlife conflicts. Of those calls, 16,180 involved human-bear conflicts.

Health Minister Terry Lakes statement on Family Caregiver Week

Health Minister Terry Lake has released the following statement today in recog-nition of Family Caregiver Week, May 3-9, 2014.

This week is a chance to ac-knowledge the work and sacrifice of the over one million caregivers throughout British Columbia. These dedicated people provide physical, emotional and financial support to family and friends who may be el-derly, chronically ill or living with a disability.

Providing care to a loved one can be rewarding, but it can also be challenging and may take a toll on a caregivers own health. Thats why the Ministry of Health and health authorities are committed to supporting organizations that help caregivers navigate their unique and ever-changing role. Online forums,

workshops and other resources provide practical tools and personal supports which aim to ease some of the stress of being a caregiver.

Because we believe in the im-portance of keeping patients con-nected to their home community, B.C.s well-funded home-care and home-support services, including community nursing, palliative and end-of-life care, as well as non-medical services like the United Ways Better at Home program, help to relieve the physical, emotional and financial burden often felt by those caring for loved ones.

On behalf of the Province of British Columbia, I would like to thank all the caregivers who work every day to improve the health and well-being of family and friends. Your job is not an easy one, but it is invaluable to those you care for.

Premier Christy Clark issued the following statement on the passing of Dr. Jagat Jack Singh Uppal

British Columbias South Asian Community lost one of its pillars with the passing of Dr. Jagat Uppal - better known to everyone as Jack.

Dr. Uppal lived the quintessential Canadian story. The son of immi-grants, he was one of the first Sikh children to attend public school in Vancouver. He went out of his way to support others looking to build their lives in British Columbia, hir-ing them with his successful lumber company, Goldwood Industries, or helping them integrate with Ca-nadian society as president of the Khalsa Diwan Society.

He was recognized as a leader, re-ceiving a British Columbia Commu-nity Achievement Award in 2010, and an honorary doctorate from Simon Fraser University in 2012.

My thoughts and prayers are with Dr. Uppals family. He will be missed.

Dr. Jagat Jack Singh Uppal
