...org/en/bc/bcpc/doc/2011/2011bcpc243/2011bcpc243.html This case took place in the Provincial Court of British Columbia, with Mr. Peter Andrew Hodgeson as the accused. Hodgeson is being prosecuted for trafficking cannabis marijuana, for breaching trust in connection with his duties as a member of the Vancouver Police Department, and for breach of trust in connection with his duties by improperly accessing the Police Records Information Management Environment (PRIME) to obtain details of an arrest for purpose contrary to s. 122 of the Criminal Code. This case may have been chosen by the editor because it relates to current issues, such as the legalization of marijuana and the current shut down of many drug houses throughout the lower mainland. This case is similar to many others, in regards to trafficking cannabis marijuana; however, it varies in regards to the trafficker. It is a rare commodity to have a member of a police department involved with the trafficking of cannabis marijuana, let alone any type of drug or illegal substance. This case is intriguing to the public because many want to know the outcome of the accused; whether his prosecution will be just or if there will be lenience because of his position as a member of the Vancouver Police Department. The public’s interest relating to this case tells us that society has become more intrigued in regards to the trafficking of cannabis marijuana, as well as cases that involve members of police departments. The accused, Peter Andrew Hodgeson, has...

...Public Policy Concerns with the Ride Sharing Industry in British Columbia Introduction The commercial ride sharing industry is presently headline news in the province of British Columbia, particularly in the city of Vancouver where the company, Uber, has been trying forcefully to tap into the city’s passenger transportation market. “Commercial ride sharing is an arrangement where for profit, taxi-like services are provided by private drivers, using technology like smartphone apps. GPS is used to connect drivers with people seeking transportation, and payment is made online” (TranBC, 2014). Uber is an App based company that networks passengers with drivers that transport them to their destination for a fee. UberX is Uber’s low cost option in which the company’s only requirements for drivers are to be over the age of 21, have a valid driver’s license, personal auto insurance, and a four door automobile which has had a vehicle inspection within the first 30 days of partnership with Uber (Elliott, J., 2014). The drivers also need to have a police background check done, and that’s it. These bare bone prerequisites have lead UberX to be scrutinized by the provincial and municipal governments, as well as the taxi industry. The scrutiny comes from Uber refusing to abide by the rules and regulations set out by the Passenger Transportation Board and the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC), as they say the Passenger Transportation Act is archaic, and does not...

...Q3 2014 | INVESTMENT Colliers International Canada Cap Rate Report New construction Across North America, High Tech firms are migrating to downtown, centrilized regions rather than suburban areas. Historically, technology firms across North America have tended to locate outside of the downtown core, particularly to more suburban regions. This stemmed from less expensive rental rates, lower taxes, large parcels of space, free parking and an industry that had an endless supply of workers more willing to commute. The 1990s saw the creation of technology regions, such as Silicon Valley (California), the Kanata North Business Park (Ontario) and Discovery Parks (British Columbia). As technology has changed, the space requirements and talent working within the industry have evolved. In more recent years, technology companies, particularly web design, program design and e-commerce firms that rely less on hardware and more on software, have begun to move from suburban office parks to established downtowns or up and coming urban neighbourhoods. Although this trend is at quite different stages in various cities across North America, there are a few patterns that are consistently present. Most importantly, a shift has occurred in which the majority of business is conducted through the web, so space needs now focus predominantly on employees and company branding. Many high-tech firms are striving for stimulating, accessible spaces which promote creativity, inspiration...

...sell his number one beer to the prohibition crowd. The Cotton Club was a “Whites-only” foundation. Even in the heart of Harlem, the race line divided the black performers from the white patrons. Inside the Cotton Club, African themes were exploited and only "jungle music" was played to an all white audience. Duke Ellington put together one of the most talented jazz bands ever to walk on stage to play for the patrons of The Cotton Club six nights a week. As the twenties went on, Ellington would continue his huge success at The Cotton Club into many classic recordings, cementing Duke Ellington to go down in history as one of the great jazz musicians and entertainers ever. In 1931, Ellington left his thrown at the cotton club to the bandleader Cab Calloway. Although Calloway wasn't as talented he did have a distinct style called scat singing. Scat Singing is singing in which the singer substitutes improvised nonsense syllables for the words of a song. Which...
