Agree with you on Tort reform but another bill; the gov stopping drug ads, just means more in the drug co coffers unless controls are placed on them, which is not a bad idea, just like it’s not a bad idea to place controls on insurance companies.

You have some good answers. I found the the following report useful, as it states the 1989 House of Common's unanimous resolution “to seek to achieve the goal of eliminating poverty among Canadian children by the year 2000", and goes on to explain shortfalls and recommendations.
2009 Report Card on Child and Family Poverty in Canada 1989-2009
On page 3 of the report, Chart 2: Child Poverty in Canada and Provinces, 2007 clearly shows BC with the highest child poverty rate. New Brunswick, my province, at 16.7% is very close behind British Columbia at 18.8%.
Sadly, despite poverty reduction strategies (at least in NB), many children and families are not assisted by these programs. I'm certain the situation is the same in BC; but, as someone who used to make a good salary; but have been on disability insurance for years, it is an ongoing struggle to just provide basic food, shelter, medication, etc. for my child. When one is living below the poverty line, the stress alone impacts good well-being. How are children to learn adequately (and to their potential) when they're hungry, cold, bullied by schoolmates, etc. To obtain much of the assistance available, an individual needs to have a lot of strength and physical stamina to deal with gov't agencies/employees. So, if one doesn't have the physical well-being to continue to just fight for their basic needs, they are left on the sidelines. Concern is truly not for the disadvantaged. And, rather than offer help, these agencies' employees look down their noses in judgement or ignore the need altogether.
Being in poverty feeds the poverty cycle because children and families cannot have good health (physical or emotional) when they cannot eat sufficient food (and I don't even mean food consumption in accordance to the Canada Food Guide). In our family's case, we're actually more ill now that we were 7 years ago, when I went on sick leave. Poverty only pepetuates the cycle. If things are similar in BC, others there must feel the same, as I know I'm losing faith that things will actually improve. Perhaps more and more families feel this way; thus perpetuating the levels of poverty.
Schools assume parents have money to purchase little items for their children, without notice, and view it as abuse that a parent doesn't have 50 cents to purchase a sheet of bristol board. It's embarrassing and shaming to a child, when they discretely tell their teacher they don't have the money to make a minor purchase, and the teacher says absolutely nothing, except to stare at the child.
Poverty creates many problems which many I do not think consider; such as even transportation to the doctor, drugs not covered by prescription plans, etc. To deal with bullying, my son was driven to school for three years, as the bullying occurred on a daily basis at the bus stop. This year, the car is "parked", as funds are unavailable for increasingly high repairs. Despite written requests for assistance to help my son deal with the bullying, a blind eye has been made by everyone involved. I believe bullying is an issue in BC too. Options for children to deal with bullying are greatly reduced by poverty, as the parents do not have the resources to assist their children. Those in poverty have to rely on the integrity of others to come alongside. But, like this report suggests, child poverty is a dirty little secret that Canada would like to sweep under the rug. Unfortunately, all Canadians will eventually feel the impact.
A quote from page 12 of the report summarizes the long-term benefits of preventing poverty:
"The long term benefits of poverty prevention will be felt by all Canadians. There is good evidence that as a society we either share the collective responsibility to prevent child and family poverty, or we face rising costs in health care services, criminal justice and education. In times of economic uncertainty a comprehensive poverty reduction plan not only works to restore social justice, it makes good economic sense. Our choice is clear – we can pay now or pay later."
I hoped to reference some of Statistics Canada's Documents; but I get entirely lost in their website. I'm certain there is good reference information available for your consideration (which would tie in poverty and it's relation to metropolitan areas, aboriginal people, immigration, disabilities, housing, equality, etc.). This is their homepage —
Perhaps this information provided additional references for your use.

Our local park has a huge pool but I doubt most kids actually learn to swim because it’s so crowded.It gets darn hot here and folks just tend to bob around to cool off. That may lead to a false sense of security when a kid gets into deep or moving water. We have drownings every summer when people who think they can swim jump into a reservoir.

I have done it this way. Wait until your paint is really really dry, then I get burnt umber color and brush it on top generously. Then immediately clean it up with a rag. You have to do this fast and almost vigorously. Many times I slightly wet the rag so I can take it off better.
If your painting is big you may want to do this in sections since acrylics dry so quickly.
I would suggest you paint on a small piece of wood first or a small canvas and try it there first to make sure you like the look and get comfortable with the technique.
Hope that helps.

posted by: Mark Brian remarks: I am so sick and tired of hearing about shadow inventory. There have always been and sadly always will be foreclosures. If the banks actually followed the law when foreclosing instead of pushing to foreclose as quickly and cheaply as possible, well then maybe we would not have quite as big a mess in real estate…. Amplify’d from http://www.housingwire.com Although the drop in default rates shows promise, the amount of shadow inventory still creates a dark loom over the future of housing prices, according to latest results from Standard & Poor’s U.S. Residential Performance Index. The shadow inventory of unresolved distressed properties is currently at an estimated $405 billion, representation four years of housing inventory and one-third of the outstanding U.S. non-agency residential mortgage debt. The report states that full recovery will only occur once the supply of distressed properties shrinks to less than a quarter of the current volume. Read more at…
