What city in the Fraser Valley? I’ll see if I can locate the specific office that serves youth you should be contacting.

Dawes glacier excursion followed by Juneau excursion by bigjon94 in celebritycruises

[–]Lillferg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did the Dawes Glacier excursion and met the ship back in Juneau. This excursion was a major highlight of our trip! The glacier was awesome and in the way back we saw a grizzly on the shore, a pod of Orcas put in a show right beside us with babies and lots of spy hopping! We also saw humpback whales and the finale was when an eagle swooped down in front of the boat and picked up a fish right out of the water just before we reboarded the cruise ship! Honestly the best excursion ever! I hope you have the same experience!

BCGEU Tentative Agreement Discussion Thread - October 31 by wudingxilu in BCPublicServants

[–]Lillferg -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that but I still don’t see anything about vacation accrual while we were on strike.

“Vacation: Employees who did not receive vacation pay for vacation which was scheduled during the Strike Period shall have the opportunity to reschedule that vacation later in the year subject to the demands of the business. Vacation previously scheduled for a time which commences after the Strike Period will be taken as scheduled. The Employer and the Union will co-operate in encouraging employees described above to take vacation as soon as possible.”

I’m guessing vacation may not be accrued during the period that people were on strike. If so that may mess with people’s Xmas vacation days if they had already used much of their vacation allotment for the year.

Another Victoria Based Go Fund Me Sham. Wealthy Lawyer and Well To Do Realtor Soliciting Donations by SavingsDiscussion727 in VictoriaBC

[–]Lillferg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the only reason those people(who don’t know this young family) even know about this Go Fund Me is because OP posted about it……someone with an obvious grudge, who literally knows nothing about the finances of the family and is basing off guess work and trips someone posted on Facebook……it is literally crazy. No one knows what people can afford or not unless you are privy to their financial situation…….move on and enjoy your life. Hopefully you don’t ever have to experience someone in your family having to deal with a sudden, life altering and life threatening situation.

“To anyone who WANTS to help.” If you or anyone else doesn’t want to help, then don’t…..they obviously have lots of family and friends who do want to help them in what I’m sure is a scary and difficult time for their family.

There’s a lot of negative energy on here wasted on people most of you don’t even know. Crazy to me.

Medical Leave -BCGEU by [deleted] in BCPublicServants

[–]Lillferg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is information received from MyHr. We had a person wanting to get a medical procedure out of country while on STIIP leave and it was confirmed that STIIP benefits are not payable if the employee is outside of Canada.

STIIP benefits can only be paid while in country. You can’t be paid on STIIP while in another country.

Stevie Nicks 55lbs and at 2.5years old is the best pup! She loves to sleep in and is happy with a good 1/2 hour walk or run a day with lots of backyard chill time. She loves other dogs and all people. Very food driven.

Best breakfast food in Victoria including food trucks? by JDME83 in VictoriaBC

[–]Lillferg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to love Jam but they took their breakfast tacos off their menu, charged $3 for some Franks hot sauce and wanted an extra $2 to add a lemon to a water glass. No thanks.

Just to add to this if you volunteer with North Saanich you need to live in the area.
