Excerpt from The Globe and Mail about our Executive Director, Carolyn Orazietti: A Mi’kmaq elder, Carolyn Orazietti joined the 22 Service Battalion, part of the Canadian Army Reserve, when she lived in London, Ont. A friend convinced her to join. He told me about all the skills that you could learn, says Ms. Orazietti, who lives in Surrey, B.C. I always had great pride for veterans, says Ms. Orazietti, whose grandfather served in the First World War. She spent three years... in the Reserve, most of it in the transport division. To commemorate National Aboriginal Veterans Day this past Sunday, Ms. Orazietti attended a small ceremony at a cenotaph in Vancouver. To mark Remembrance Day, she will have a moment of silence at home. I’ll be thinking of my grandfather and how he put his life on the line, and how all these veterans believed so much in the future of our nation and in freedom.

We want to give another huge thank you to the Burnaby BC RCMP for addressing our concerns and creating a crime prevention program for our businesses when Covid first started. It's because of this partnership that we were able to win the Business Improvement Areas of British Columbia Response & Recovery Excellence Award. They have been a major help with crime prevention initiatives that have absolutely changed the way we do business here on North Road. They have always had our backs. Thank you from ALL the Burnaby Businesses!
