Wowzers, great livingroom!

So maybe you have heard the the City of Red Deer was planning to implement some new guidelines for regulating Secondary Suites. Maybe this caught your attention because you currently live in one, own a property with one, or are thinking of constructing one. Whatever the reason, you may be interested to take a look...

A quick shout out, as always, goes to our latest winner, Jessica Nagorski, who picked up a $25 Cineplex Gift Card for her comment on 2010 Resolutions. This week, I have decided to do something a little bit different from the normal contest. On the heels of one of the worst natural disasters in recent...

According to ‘thestar.com’, “That flood of donations is setting Canadians apart, leading the world in providing aid to Haiti, giving almost $2 per person.” It is inspiring to see we are still willing to pitch in, proud to be Canadian!
Thanks for doing your part, big bro! You’re the best ^_^
I love what you’re doing man! Very noble, and selfless.
I think with this disaster, and the ones to come, we will see more of an outpouring of kindness from people. I think we are slowly starting to wake up a bit more and we are starting to care more for the people who need it.
no real thoughts about the earthquake, just hope that the people there get all the help they need, and thanks mike for doing your part to help a bit
My heart breaks for all those people… children without parents and parents who have lost their children. It makes me hold my children a little closerand thank god I was born in a country like Canada!! This is an awesome thing you are doing Mike, wtg!!
A great idea for a very worthy cause Mr. Wiseman
My two cents… or should I say two dollars
Mike, I think it’s great you’ve organized this. Most of us in N. America and Europe and so privileged and we don’t even realize it. Haiti was already in such bad shape and now this. It’s hard to imagine even going on in circumstances like they are facing.
Yeah mike. If I were going to buy a house in red deer I would talk to you.
Go Mike GO!
I am genuinley and deeply saddend by the recent disaster in Haiti.
Like many others, it has made me realize how truely blessed my life is and my deepest sympathies go out to everyone who has been affected.
Mike, your an angel for doing this, the world needs more people like you.
I find it truly amazing that these stricken people can begin singing in the evenings , they are truly amazing , Jeannie O
We are blessed beyond comprehension in this country. Looking at just a few of the devastating pictures from Haiti will show you that. I pray to God that the people of Haiti can somehow recover and heal. And that we as Americans can look at what we have and know we are in abundance and without fear of such incredible destruction. God be with each of them.
Our daughter’s class has been talking about the situation in Haiti and her heart seems really pained by it all. She has always seemed to have a heart for the homeless and I think seeing pictures and hearing about it has just broken her heart. Our family’s prayers are certainly with those in Haiti.
All of these comments are so touching…and I’m really excited that I can see friends of mine that came over to post a comment after I mentioned it on Facebook.
This is a tragedy, and its so easy to feel removed and not let it affect you, but truthfully how can we not all be completely affected by it. I hate to say this, but I feel blessed that we have this country we live in that just isn’t as affected by these natural disasters. I CANNOT imagine going thru it all. Blessings and hopeful thoughts to all people trying to make a difference.
Good luck Mike. The world needs more people that care like you.It is amazing how strong the Hatians are despite everything that is happening to them.
Mike – this is an awesome initiative and a very unifying gesture. Haiti is experiencing such sad and traumatic devasation, and it is incredible what a million pairs of hands (or hearts or initiatives) can do from all around the globe in times of exteme circumstances. So great job spreading awareness, sharing resources, and bringing everyone together to help.
Vraiment un tres beau geste de ta part. Continue, Moi je suis sens mots quand je vois tous se qui se passe la bas. Mes prieres sont avec eux. God bless you for the good work you’re doing.
This incident has definately opened my eyes and made me realise I have nothing to complain about. My thoughts are with the people of Haiti. Wish I was there in person to help. Its horrible watching the news and being totaly helpless.
THis is a great gesture MIKE.
Very cool… very cool indeed!
My mother is currently in Haiti. She has been there for the better part of 7 years donating her time and money educating and feeding children.
Not hearing from her right away was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to deal with. I assumed the worst.
The email she sent saying she was okay brought so many happy tears. Reading on about the horror she, as well as thousands of others, are facing made me cry like I’ve never done before.
Thank you for doing this. Thanks for making me know that my Mom has people looking out for her.
As devestating as this earthquake has been, I am thankful that it is bringing some much-needed awareness to the situation in Haiti. Even prior to the destruction left be the quake, Haiti was a desperately impoverished nation. Now perhaps they will receive the help they need.
Very nice gesture.
This is great Idea.
Thank you
Lucy
You’re doing a wonderful thing…
God Bless You
Good for you! Our combined efforts (both monetary and prayers) are all we can do at a distance.
I really try not to whine too much about the little things in life or start fights over small things because in the end, other people have to deal with much worse stuff than I do. Finland doesn’t get any real natural disasters either, so we’re pretty much the same as Canada.
You can’t enjoy a sunny day without a little rain once in a while either. I hope it helps people appreciate what they have when they think about people who lose so much.
Living in Manila for 20 years, a place so very prone to natural disaster – as well as man-made disasters, unfortunately – I have learned compassion and sharing, not to take one’s gifts and blessings for granted… and not to sweat the small stuff. Nice gesture, Mike. I donated to CARE Canada.
I’m amazed how we see humanity arise as unfortunates go through national crisis.
Too bad it has to be a dramatic event to bring this out.
Then again, small positive actions aren’t that publicised.
God bless your heart!
Kudos to you for organising this, donating your time and money to help those in need. You may already know this, but the Canadian Government is matching all Red Cross donations to Haiti (up to a total of $50 million dollars), so your donation will go twice as far. Brilliant!
When you see the people there fighting with each other for what is left of water and fuel etc. it really makes you think about the mayhem that would happen here if a similar disaster hit… Despite the fact that so many countries and individuals are giving so generously it may not be enough for some of the people in Haiti. Nice work bro, hopefully we who aren’t affected can help enough to ease some of the pain down there.
I don’t even think we can comprehend what it is like for people over in Haiti as we live in such a wealthy country with a thriving economy and a vast amount of space everywhere we look. It seriously breaks my heart to think of how fortunate we are and how unfortunate others are…why can’t it be a little more “even” you know?
Pictures are never a true site in what is happening or how people are cooping. We can we thankful daily that there is a God and he is there holding the hands of all the people still trapped and he walked with the ones that we as mortales were unable to get to. There is always a reason for things that happen even tho then things of the magnitude happen we wonder WHY. We can only pray and be thankful for all the people that are helping physically of money wise and people like you who take an effort to get the word out and help. Thank you Debi
Hi Mike
What a great gesture on your part. Haïti has made me more aware of how we are lucky to live in such a great country that has strong structures. We are very privileged.
Very Inspirational Mike. With everyone’s help and love Haiti will come back strong – one day at a time.
The disaster in Haiti reaffirms the work that I have been involved in with regards to aiding the less fortunate and has helped me to realize that as much we have done, the work continues….
Great idea, Mike. I plan to make a donation to the Red Cross. These disasters do not affect OUR daily lives as such, just that we feel sick for the people living there, but it sure makes us think about how fortunate we are to live in a country where we do not need to worry about too much. We complain about -40 weather, but we have heat and shelter and comforts….. And, it makes us wonder just what we can do to help, and the only way I know how to help is financially. So, everyone should take their extra cash that they would spend frivolously and make it a donation, right???
Hi Mike, this is very kind of you and if I can make a difference by passing your message on, it is the least I can do. It’s heart breaking to see the ruins.
This disaster has changed the way that I see the world and the WATER……each time I take a glass of water, do laundry, prepare nice diner, I’ll really appreciate everything that we have so easily! and I have more compassion………..
it is so good to see the world come together in time of Crisis- shows that Humanity still exists!
It makes the little things not so important anymore.
While the pictures we see of the Haiti disaster look horrible, I can only imagine it’s ten times worse for the people there. To loose all you have worked for, to have to start over again from scratch…. I am not sure I would be able to go on. Such a disaster affects how I view the things that matter to me most in life…family and friends. The personal possessions are just ‘pretty’ things that decorate our intimate world… Everyday I get up I have a chance to make a difference and start over….
Take nothing for granted . Reach out and help when ever possible.
What has happened to Haiti is very sad and unfortunate and us as Canadians should count our blessings every day as yes we are one of the countries that are sheltered from many such as this. I pray god to help these people in need. I comment to others we are lucky and what complaining we do is pathetic when you think of these people and other countires.
I hope ALL canadians will donate as this is the least we can do – regardless of how much they can give.
This is a wonderful idea.
Hey Mike!! Good to see you and Andrea today! I think this is awesome what you are doing!! Good luck and I will pass this on to my friends as well! Cheerio! jess
Mike,
This is such a great idea.
Having been through my share of things – Earthquake in Philippines in the 90′s and seeing the country in rubble yes this earthquake has affected me… we aren’t as safe as we all think – It’s sad to see the country in ruins and to hear all the stories about how even the people who survived are now dying because of the lack of food and water….
I don’t think this will be the end of severe disasters, I believe this might be only the beginning.
I can’t think of how it hasn’t changed my life. This is one of the biggest disasters of our time.
First off, I thank God that I live in a country where natural disasters don’t affect us physically as much as other countries. I feel so privileged to live somewhere so safe and I’ve been thinking twice about spending money on things I don’t necessarily need, but want. If I had the opportunity to make a difference, I would drop my life here in Red Deer and go down there and help out in any way that I could and attempt to help people find their lost loves ones, and help people get through this tough time.
It has affected for me. It totally hit home when we celebrated our children’s birthdays this past weekend. We headed to a local middle school gym, had lots of fun, ate great food & cake and then opened a tone of presents. We were packing it all up to come home and then it struck us… our children do not need more gift… they are so blessed! We could have asked all our guest to put the money they would have spent on a gift towards the people of Haiti. Why didn’t we do that?? Well, I guess what is done, is done & next time we have an opportunity to make a difference, we will not hesitate! I think what we have taken from this, is to open our eyes… opportunities to help are sometime directly in front of us. Lastly, I would totally, (if I had the cash) adopt a baby from Haiti!!
This disaster has changed the way that I see the world – I now see it and the people living in it as fragile. I have more compassion. This month I am giving up eating out, Starbucks, Tim Hortons, etc and giving the money to relief efforts.
