Most real estate experts agree thatbeing too emotionally attached toyour home can lead to poor deci-sions, such as over-pricing the list-ing and making hasty movesbased on feelings rather than facts.Of course removing emotionsfrom the home selling equation iseasier said than done. After all, it’syour home. It’s only natural to beemotionally connected to it.So how do you ensure that emo-tions don’t get in the way of sell-ing your house quickly and for thebest price? Here are some strate-gies:• Think of selling your property asa business transaction only. Focusyour emotions onto the new home

you’ll be moving into soon.• Stow as many personal items aspossible, such as trophies andfamily pictures. Turn your homeinto an attractive product.• If a buyer makes a negative com-ment about your property- “I havethe deck colour.”- don’t take itpersonally.• Avoid judging offers to buy yourhouse based on whether or not youlike the buyer.Finally, whenever you make a de-cision during the home sellingprocess, ask yourself:“Am I making this decision basedon fact or emotion?” If the answeris “fact” then. Chances are, you’reon solid footing.

CHANDIGARH, INDIA - PremierChristy Clark announced recently thatthe B.C. and Punjab governments willwork together in the areas of advancededucation, skills certification, agricul-ture and cultural exchange programs toboost economic and cultural ties be-

tween the two jurisdictions.“Building stronger economic and cul-tural ties with the State of Punjab will

be hugely beneficial to both of oureconomies,” said Clark. “The State ofPunjab is a key player in the fast-grow-ing market of India, and a close friendof our province because so manyBritish Columbians trace their roots tothe Punjab.”These initiatives came out of a meet-ing between Premier Clark, PunjabChief Minister Parkash Singh Badaland Food Processing Minister Adesh-Partap Singh Kairon.In Chandrigarh, Minister Virk raisedawareness of the great potential forsecondary and post-secondary educa-tion partnerships, joint research initia-tives, and student and educator

exchange between B.C. and India.“Our meeting with Punjab Chief Minis-ter Mr. Parkash Singh Badal and histeam of senior officials was extremelyproductive,” said Virk. “We discussed avariety of topics related to post-sec-ondary education, including how wecan continue to work to promote thetwo-way global flow of students, edu-cators and knowledge between Indiaand British Columbia. Back in BritishColumbia, we will look into how to putour exchange of ideas into action tobenefit our students, our institutionsand our two jurisdictions.”B.C. and the Punjab will work on ateacher and student exchange pro-gram between UBC and Punjab uni-versities, with a focus onpharmacology, generic medicines andbio-energy.International missions such as the visitto India increase British Columbia’sprofile as an attractive and high-qualitystudy destination. The Province iscommitted to a 50 per cent increase inthe number of international studentsstudying in B.C. by 2016.Virk added, “Students from India canlook forward to a warm welcome whenthey arrive in British Columbia becauseof our long-standing cultural, social andeconomic connections.”There are more than 60 educationpartnerships between public post-sec-ondary institutions in British Columbiaand institutions and institutes in India.The mission will build on existing part-nerships and, hopefully, result in addi-tional partnerships.Clark also said B.C.’s Punjab-basedTrade and Representative Office andthe Province would work on proposalsput forth by Punjab Chief MinisterParkash Singh Badal on a number ofkey areas for both jurisdictions, includ-ing: food technology and milk process-ing, mutual recognition of skills andtraining certificates, and an exchangeof cultural troupes of eminent musi-cians and folk singers from Punjab toparticipate in the Vancouver PunjabiMela held every year.Clark was in India on a trade missionOctober 9-18, 2014, making stops inNew Delhi, Chandigarh, and Mumbai,promoting the strength of key B.C. sec-tors, including: liquefied natural gasand other natural resources, digital artsand film, finance, agrifoods, clean tech-nology and life sciences. The trademission is also showcasing B.C. asIndia’s fastest and most efficient gate-way to North American markets.Quick facts:In 2012-13, there were 112,800 inter-national students in British Columbia -an increase of 20 per cent since 2009-10. Over the same time period, therewas a 188 per cent increase in thenumber of students coming to B.C.from India.In 2012-13, there were 4,600 interna-tional students from India studying inB.C., including 2,600 in public post-secondaryinstitutions and 2,000 in pri-vate post-secondary institutions.

Respected Editor,

Sat Sri AkaalIt is a matter of great pleasure for the

lovers of the Punjabi language that the Punjabi is no morelimited to BC only, but has become the main language inthe country after English and French. This is a matter ofpride not only for the Punjabi Language Education Associ-ation (PLEA) but also for the Indo-Canadian media and theentire Punjabi fraternity.The Punjabi language has progressed along with the Pun-jabi community in Canada. Eight lakh Punjabis currentlyliving in this country have distinguished themselves in allspheres with their hard work -- be it politics, business, ed-ucation, sports, media, technology and other areas. Thishas enhanced the respect for the Punjabi language. ThePunjabi has become the language of employment in thecities like Surrey, Abbotsford and Brampton. Punjabi-speaking workers are also in demand at other manyplaces.The Punjabi language is also being accepted at the local,provincial, federal and corporate levels. The recent deci-sion of Rogers to telecast on TV the competitions of fa-mous game of ice hockey in Punjabi has been widelyappreciated. Such programmes are very useful in bringingour young generation closer to our culture.Despite all these achievements, we still need to work morefor the progress of the Punjabi. PLEA is trying to makeavailable the Punjabi subject in all those schools, colleges,and universities where a good number of students want tostudy Punjabi. PLEA is also trying to put up signatures andsignboards in Punjabi wherever needed. Only able personsshould be involved in the translation of English to Punjabi.PLEA is further trying to convince various airlines to em-ploy one or two Punjabi-speaking cabin crew members forthe help the elderly passengers.PLEA has been putting in the best efforts for long now forthe progress of the Punjabi language. In this connection,PLEA organizes International Punjabi Day in Februaryevery year. To encourage children, PLEA is organizing acompetition in short story poems and letter writing in thisNovember. The detailed information will be provided soonin this connection. PLEAalso wants that the Punjabi shouldbe introduced in more and more schools, colleges, and uni-versities. If the children are encouraged for Punjabi, thiswill make a lot of difference. We have to start efforts fromnow if we have to get Punjabi introduced in any school orcollege from next year. Normally we need about 25 chil-dren to start a class.PLEA calls upon all the Punjabi lovers to encourage theirchildren as well as those of their relatives and friends tohave Punjabi as a subject in schools, colleges and univer-sities. It is a matter of great pride for us that now Punjabi isone of the main languages in the world and there are anumber of benefits in reading Punjabi. Children will be ableto communicate in Punjabi with their grandparents andother relatives who do not know English. Without doing sothey will not be able to enjoy the Punjabi literature, cultureand heritage. The knowledge of Punjabi can also be veryhelpful in finding jobs. Canada currently has very goodbusiness relations with India in general and Punjab in par-ticular. The Punjabi-knowing persons can also benefit fromthis also. Even otherwise, Punjabi is now rapidly becomingthe language of business and employment. Likewise, thereare so many other benefits of reading Punjabi.PLEA appeals to the Punjabi fraternity to come forward tocreate such an atmosphere which may take the Punjabi tothe top. For this, let us work to get Punjabi introduced inmore and more schools, colleges and universities. This isa golden opportunity to the Punjabi lovers to become am-bassadors of the Punjabi language.

Thanks,Yours well-wisher,Balwant Singh Sanghera,President, Punjabi Language Education Association

Take back City Hall byvoting on November 15Dear Editor,

Citizen voting in municipal elections has only averaged tobe 30 per cent, with the majority of activists being devel-opers and construction contractors who seem to make themost influence in municipal politics for personal gains.Our active participation is essential if we want to proac-tively address crime, roads, development and many otherissues that are related to our city. To make our vision a re-ality, we must take responsibility and vote for a better Sur-rey. We all need to be reminded that City Halls are foreveryone who pays taxes, even if they’re not developers. Iencourage everyone to vote in the upcoming municipalelections, on November 15 to take the City back to the av-erage citizens.

If we don’t vote, then we have no right to complain.

Sincerely,Charan GillCommunications Officer, Progressive InterculturalCommunity Services Society

Five things about the election process that need to changeDear Editor,I love civic elections and good governance.Not surprisingly, I am quite excited about theelection in Surrey because there is quite pos-sibly a tight three way race for Mayor withBarinder Rasode of One Surrey, Doug Mc-Callum with his Safe Surrey Coalition, andLinda Hepner of Surrey First. It is difficult tosay who will be crowned “Your Worship.”Nonetheless, below I highlight five thingsabout the elections and the election processthat need to change to enhance our localgovernment and democracy. I hope whoevergets elected in Surrey will take note and turnsome of these ideas into a reality.Time for campaign finance: In the 2011 civicelection, Dianne Watts and her Surrey Firstteam received $676,283.00 in contributions.Most of this money came from developersand business.On the other hand, Bob Bose who ran withthe Surrey Civic Coalition for a spot as a CityCouncillor received only $29,920.00 in totalcontributions for his entire slate. Most of thismoney came from unions, construction firms,and some industrial companies.In other words, Surrey First basically floodedSurrey voters with a well-financed campaign,while Bose and his team where trying to gettheir message across on a shoe stringbudget.In Vancouver, the situation is even worse, interms of the millions necessary to run a cam-paign. In 2011, the NPA received$2,555,707.00, while Vision Vancouver re-ceived $2,227,402.00. The left-of-centre

COPE only managed to secure $361,120.00.As you can see, there is not a level playingfield. A quick solution would be to cap dona-tions such as from corporations, unions, andthird parties including restricting third partyadvertising from special interest groups.Ethical and conflict of interest problems:Thisinvasion of big money in politics createsmany ethical and conflict of interest problemsfor local politicians. For example, a Mayor orCity Councillor should not be voting on anyproposal involving a union, corporation, or de-veloper if they received a significant donationfrom them. This is just common sense. Theend result would be politicians voting for whatis in the best interests of the citizens and theircity, instead of what is in the best interests oftheir donors.The end of one person on vote: Another prob-lem with the election is allowing non-residentproperty owners to vote. Basically if a personowns property in 10 different towns or cities inBC, then he or she could vote 10timesthroughout the province. This diminishes thedemocratic principle of one person one voteand skews democracy in favour or propertyowners or the relatively wealthy.Residency requirement: What is even moreridiculous is that a candidate only needs tolive in B.C. for six months prior to the electionin order to be a candidate for local office. Inother words, you can parachute candidatesfrom all over the province to run for office inyour city. It makes sense for candidates tolive in your city, never mind the province, forat-least three years prior to the election so

they are familiar with the issues and havebuilt a track record in the city.Return to the ward system: Last, Surreyneeds to return to the ward system. TheMayor and three councilors can be elected at-large and seven councilors can be elected torepresent all the town centres in Surrey. Thiswould give Surrey the same representationas Vancouver which is more than appropriateconsidering the growing size and stature ofSurrey.A ward system makes politics more accessi-ble for the citizen. A candidate doesn’t needthousands of dollars to run a city-wide cam-paign or to seek the nomination of a politicalslate. Independents would have a goodchance of getting elected. This is because theelections would be held in smaller neigh-bourhood districts or wards. In a ward systemthe citizens become politically engaged andwell-represented with their own City Council-lor to focus on the specific issues, needs, andchallenges, as well as the strengths of theircommunity.There you go! My five things about the elec-tions and the election process that need tochange to enhance our local government anddemocracy. Let’s make it happen first in Sur-rey.

Selling Property in India as an NRIOwnership of property in Indiahas been, for centuries, agateway to moving up the so-cial ladder and a sense ofpride in a land where castesystems are still prevalent. Insome regions, such as thestate of Punjab, the amount ofland owned and cultivatedforms a landowner’s identity.Needless to say, land issuesare given utmost importanceand can often lead to griev-ances within families. Add tothis scenario an individual whohas immigrated to anothercountry and the situation canbecome very stressful for theNon-Resident Indian (NRI),who has to deal with land mat-ters oceans away. Even ifthere are no feuds amongstfamily members, simply own-ing a chunk of real estate inone country while residing inanother is a hassle for manyIndians that have immigratedto Canada. In the past, it hasbeen easier to give away landto close relatives but the risingprices of land in India nowmake this a foolish financialmove. Thus, there is an in-creasing number of NRIs that

are looking to sell propertythey own in India.

When an NRI wantsto sell land in India, there aresome important things to fac-tor into this process. First ofall, many NRIs carry the mis-conception that they cannotsell land themselves andtherefore give a Power of At-torney to a relative to do bid-ding on their behalf. This isuntrue; an NRI may sell prop-erty in India. Depending onthe type of land, there are cer-tain conditions to be met whenmaking such a sale. If theproperty is residential or com-mercial, an NRI may sell it tothe following:1) a person residing in India2) another NRI3) a Person of Indian Origin(PIO)However, if the land is agricul-tural, plantation land or sup-ports a farm house, then theproperty can be sold to onlysomeone who is a residentand a citizen of India.

Once the sale is com-plete, a notice must be sent tothe Indian income tax office.Since Canada and India have

a treaty concerning financialcrimes, this is necessary toavoid legal fines and punish-ments. A Capital Gains Taxwill be implemented on theproperty sold. A capital gain iscalculated as the differencebetween the sale value andthe indexed cost of purchase.If the property was owned forover three years, there is along-term tax of 20% decreed.If the property being taxed wasowned for less than threeyears then there is a short-term Capital Gains Tax owedat 30%.There are Capital Gains Taxexemptions. Under Section54 of the Income Tax Act, if aresidential property wasowned long term, and the pro-ceeds are reinvested into an-other residential propertywithin two years of sale, gainswill be exempt of the cost ofthe newly acquired property,given that it is held for at leastthree years. Another exemp-tion, under Section 54EC, isgiven if the profits are investedinto NHAI or REC bonds withinsix months of sale and lockedinto for three years.

Another important measure totake while selling land in Indiais to deposit the proceeds of asale into the proper account(and to bring the money backto Canada, if the seller so de-sires). If the property wasbought/owned by the NRIwhile they were still a residentof India, they must procure aNon-Resident Ordinary (NRO)account and credit the moneyinto it. From this account, anNRI may repatriate the incometo Canada, with a limit of up to$1 million USD per calendaryear, provided all due taxeshave been paid. Proceedsfrom property purchased as anNRI are slightly more compli-cated to repatriate. The repar-tition conditions are as follows:1) if purchased out of rupeeresources (income earned inrupees) or home loan is repaidby a relative who is a residentof India, then an NRO accountis credited and same rulesapply as above2) if foreign funds used, musthave been purchased in ac-cordance with foreign ex-change laws prevalent at thetime of purchase

3) if purchased using ForeignCurrency Non-Resident(FCNR) account,repatriation cannot exceed theamount paid through theFCNR account4) if purchased using Non-Resident External(NRE) ac-count, repatriation cannot goover the foreign exchangeequivalent of the amount paidthrough NRE account, on thedate property was bought5) if purchased by taking ahome loan, repartition cannotbe more than the amount ofloan repayment that has beendone using foreign inward re-mittances or debit toFCNR/NRE accounts6) if NRO account used, earn-ings must be debited back intoNRO account and repartitionlimits for NRO accounts men-tioned above applyFinally, if an NRI would like torepartition more than $1 mil-lion USD in one calendar year,a specific application must bemade to the property authori-ties in Canada and India.

B.C. life sciences companyopens facility in India

BANGALORE - ARichmond-based life sci-ences company that has made importantdiscoveries in cancer, inflammation andcentral nervous system disorders hasopened a new research facility in India toconvert these early discoveries into drugsfor global use.“SignalChemLifesciences’ expansion intoIndia is great news - for the company, forthose working in B.C.’s technology and lifesciences sector, and for everyone who willbenefit from the treatments this researchmakes possible,” said Premier Christy

Clark. “This is a great example of how in-ternational economic opportunities spursjob creation at home - because of this ex-pansion, SignalChem will need more em-ployees at its research facility in B.C.”At its research facility in India, SignalChemwill identify the cause of disease in eachpatient and determine a drug candidate thatcan potentially cure that disease. Not onlywill the research facility in Bangalore allowthe company to address various diseasesin different parts of the world, but it also in-creases the value of the company’s thera-pies and helps increase its intellectualproperty.“Our province’s biopharmaceutical sectoris one of the fastest-growing in Canada,and the opening of this new research facil-ity demonstrates that,” said Advanced Edu-cation Minister AmrikVirk, who attended thefacility’s opening ceremony as part of Pre-mier Clark’s India Trade Mission. “I amproud to see B.C. companies like this onemaking a global impact by making the nec-essary connections to expand their busi-nesses into new markets.”SignalChem was founded in 2004 and thecompany credits a large part of its success

to having a smart business model of finan-cial independence. In 2012, SignalChemgrew to approximately 30 employees, andnow employees 50 Canadians nationallyand 95 people worldwide.“SignalChem has developed a technologyplatform to discover new drugs by exploit-ing protein kinases that are known to causediseases such as cancer, inflammation orcentral nervous system disorders,” said Dr.AkashMathur, SignalChem’s chief businessofficer and resident director of SignalChemIndia. “These diseases impact populations

worldwide, and opening a research and de-velopment facility in India is a key part ofour plan to address these diseases. Uponsuccess, our plan will be a breakthroughcontribution by a Canadian biotech com-pany.”Trade missions are a critical part of BritishColumbia’s strategy to diversify its interna-tional trading partners and secure new in-vestment, propelling economic activity andjob creation throughout the province.Quick Facts:• Over 84,000 people work in B.C.’s tech-nology sector.• 14,000 British Columbians specialize inlife sciences, generating $800 million in an-nual revenue.• B.C.’s biopharmaceutical cluster is theseventh-largest in North America, and em-ploys over 2,000 British Columbians.• Over 100 life sciences companies havestemmed from the University of British Co-lumbia alone, raising more than $2 billionin private investments.• Since 2001, the B.C. government has in-vested over $900 million in health and lifescience research.

International trade and investment arekey priorities for our government - andIndia is one of B.C.'s emerging tradepartners.We share close economic, cultural andsocial ties with India. Not surprising, asmore than 5 per cent of our populationhave a South Asian heritage.Recently, I had the privilege of accom-panying Premier Christy Clark and adelegation of more than 70 companiesand post-secondary institutions on atrade mission to India. The purposewas to promote the strength of keyB.C. sectors, including liquefied natu-ral gas and other natural resources,clean technology, life sciences, film,digital arts, finance and education. Theeducation delegation included repre-sentatives from nine B.C. post-sec-ondary institutions.I joined the education delegation inChandigarh, Delhi, Bangalore andMumbai where we met with key aca-demic, industry and government stake-holders. I also had a number ofspeaking engagements relating to ed-ucation as well as other sectors.The mission provided an opportunity topromote British Columbia as a high-

quality education destination, and toraise awareness of the potential for ed-ucational partnerships, student ex-changes and joint research initiativeswith India.We met with existing partners tostrengthen relationships, and madenew connections that will encouragethe two-way flow of students, teachersand ideas between B.C. and India.For example, UBC renewed an agree-ment with the National Centre for Bio-logical Sciences in Bangalore. Theagreement envisages the exchange ofvisiting scholars as well as sharing re-search, information and participating injoint academic conferences.Royal Roads University built on a pre-vious agreement allowing ChandigarhUniversity students to transfer into thethird year of the Bachelor of BusinessAdministration program in British Co-lumbia.SFU and the Indian Council for CulturalRelations will establish a VisitingScholars Program at SFU to foster andstrengthen cultural relations by hostingworld-class Indian scholars. SFU alsosigned an agreement with India OilCorporation ..... Cont. page 10

Building strongerpartnerships........to exchange research scientists on ashort-stay basis to pursue research inthe areas of energy, fuel cells, cleanenergy technology and advanced ma-terials.Langara College strengthened their ex-isting partnership with the Royal Col-lege of Nursing in Batala that givesstudents in Langara's Bachelor of Sci-ence in Nursing program the uniqueopportunity to conduct their practicumexperience in Indian communities.BCIT formalized two partnerships while

in India. The first, with The Energy andResources Institute, in New Delhi, willfoster collaboration and explore jointresearch opportunities in microgrid en-ergy research and green building ini-tiatives. The second agreementbetween BCIT and Chitkara Universityin Chandigarh will identify and exploreactivities relating to student and facultymobility, train-the-trainer educationmodels, and degree programs.And, the College of New Caledonia issigning agreements with two higherlearning institutions to support over-seas learning opportunities and boostinternational enrollment: NarayanaHealth - a teaching hospital in Banga-

lore - and OP Jindal University inRaigarh.I was also pleased to join the Premierin the announcement of funding for 20scholarships, worth a total of $50,000to support and encourage the two-wayexchange of students between the Uni-versity of the Fraser Valley andSanatan Dharma College in Chandi-garh.Most-recent figures show there were112,800 internationals students inBritish Columbia - an increase of 20per cent since 2009-10. The number ofinternational students from India hasincreased 188 per cent.In addition to increased opportunities

for education collaboration, I am alsohopeful that more students from Indiawill choose B.C. as their study destina-tion because of our efforts to raiseB.C.'s profile. This supports our gov-ernment's goal of a 50 per cent in-crease the number of internationalstudents studying in B.C. by 2016.This mission to India was extremelyproductive for the education sector, aswell a number of other important sec-tors for B.C. We now look forward tocontinuing the dialogue with our part-ners in India to sustain this momentum.

In the provincial government’s LabourMarket Outlook 2022, transport truckdrivers were identified as number twoin the top 10 most-needed professions.It’s estimated that the province will

need a whopping 18,000 drivers by2022.“Those numbers are staggering,” saysSteve Moores, Okanagan College’sDean of Trades and Apprenticeship.“But the College is partnering with bothindustry and the government to fill thatgap and provide workers with the skillsthey need to be competitive in the fu-ture.”To that end, Okanagan College joinedforces seven years ago with Taylor Pro

Training, a leader in truck driver train-ing, to offer Class 1 Driver Training.This experiential, full-time programcovers the broad range of hands-onskills necessary to find employment asa transport truck driver and can becompleted in just six weeks.What’s more, the provincial govern-ment, realizing this looming shortage,has provided full funding for the pro-gram to eligible applicants through theCanada-British Columbia Job Fund. Ofthe 32 students who participated lastyear in the tuition-free program, 29found employment in the trucking in-dustry.To be eligible for the funding, appli-cants must be unemployed, legally en-titled to work in Canada, a resident ofB.C., not currently receiving employ-ment insurance or have not received itin the last three years, not enrolled inhigh school or another post-secondarytraining program, and not participatingin another government-funded pro-gram.The Class 1 Driver Training programhas new intakes across the Okanagan,including Revelstoke on Oct. 27,SalmonArm on Nov. 3, Vernon on Dec.15, and Penticton on Jan. 19, 2015.To find out more about the programand eligibility for funding, contactShawna Klempner at 250-762-5445,ext. 4479, or toll-free at 1-877-755-2266, ext. 4479.
