Vancouver Casino expansion was opposed and defeated
Yesterday, the proposed Vancouver Casino expansion was opposed and defeated. I was personally against the expansion of the Casino and I am glad that the city council made the right decision. Our beautiful Vancouver neighbourhood and waterfront can be further improved in so many ways; an expansion of the Casino would in my mind not be an improvement. There is no way to argue around the fact that expanding the Casino would increase crime and attract the wrong elements to Vancouver, in addition to further expand the gambling problem and make it easier for addidicted gamblers to get into further trouble.
Following is a map of Vancouver and the Average Casino Take per Adult for a given area. This is the estimated amount that each and every adult on average losses to the Casino in their area. The average Casino “take” per adult is expected to be nearly $700 on average per adult in Greater Vancouver.....That is a CRAZY amount of money that most people cannot afford to loss in my opinion, or could spend on better options...Roland

Smoke Detectors Save Lives
Smoke detectors save lives. It is important to put smoke detectors in the right places in your home. You should test them regularly to make sure that they work properly.
The First line of defence:
In the event of fire, properly installed and maintained smoke detectors can help save lives by giving early warning and allowing sufficient time for occupants to reach safety. All smoke detectors advertized and sold in Canada are regulated under the Hazardous Products Act, and required to meet performance requirements set out in standards developed by the Underwriters' Laboratories of Canada (ULC). It is up to the manufactures, importers and retailers of the smoke detectors to ensure that their units comply with the safety standards.
The two types of smoke detectors:
The ionization-type of smoke detector is generally better suited for detecting fast, flaming fires which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of fires may include paper burning in a waste basket or a grease fire in the kitchen. These type of fires account for 70% of home fires.
The photoelectric-type of smoke detector is generally better suited for detecting slow, smouldering fires which may smoulder for hours before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes burning in couches or bedding. These type of fires account for 30% of home fires.
General tips on smoke detectors:
- Make sure the smoke detectors in your home are in good operating condition. For a rapid response to any kind of fire, consumers may want to consider installing both types of smoke detectors, or one which incorporates both technologies, i.e. the ionization-type and the photoelectric-type.
- Ensure that smoke detectors are installed as per the manufacturer's instructions.
- Replace smoke detectors which are more than 10 years old.
- If battery operated, replace the battery according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Test and clean your smoke detectors according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Install smoke detectors on each level of your home, including the basement, especially near or in bedrooms.
- Develop and practise an escape plan in the event of a house fire. Your escape plan should include a meeting point.
- If you have any questions regarding your particular model, contact the manufacturer or importer of your unit. Manufacturers usually maintain a 1-800 number for customer inquiries.
A professional home inspector from A Buyer's Choice Home Inspections will be more than happy to conduct a review of any possible improvements or defects in the fire and smoke detectors in your home during the post inspection consultation.
