Buying a foreclosure home in Abbotsford - 07/18/09 11:21 AM
I received a few inquiries in the last few weeks from potential buyers of homes in foreclosure.

Propane cannon debate in Abbotsford BC - 07/18/09 09:58 AM
Yes, its happens every year. Local newpapers (and sometimes The Province and Vancouver Sun) will publish stories about the propane-fuelled bird scare devices or "blueberry cannons" as we call them. Then a chain reaction of letters to the editor from both proponents and opponents of blueberry cannons will last all summer. Shrinking rural urban divide and increasing number of blueberry fields make a ceasefire  - between residents and farmers - unlikely in the near future.
