While Canadians are concerned about things as basic as their jobs, rising prices for gasoline and food and what it will cost to heat their homes this winter, our politicians natter on about who should force an election. With the tax cuts and spending increases they've already put in place, the Conservatives' ability to offer us more goodies is limited and the economy is turning down.

We wanted to go with geothermal heating, but that wasn't possible, so we went with a state-of-the-art electric heating system. All the windows here are extra-large, and that's because we went with triple-glazed low-e argon windows," adds [Rudy Friesen], himself (along with [Brian Tokar]) a resident of the complex. "Other energy-saving features include low-flow faucets in all the sinks, as well as dual flush toilets that help save water. All appliances are Energy Star rated to further reduce energy costs. "We call the concept "green, urban-chic luxury living," says The [Strand]'s lead realtor, Bill Thiessen. "To the best of my knowledge, it's the only building in the area that's been designed to be so environmentally friendly. On the one hand, we're hoping to attract that type of clie...

University of Winnipeg sustainability co-ordinator Mark Burch said the ecological footprint may be a simplified notion, but it's still a powerful educational tool. For example, Burch said his footprint is 30 per cent of Canada's average, but contrary to what some might think, he doesn't suffer at all. If I can cut my ecological footprint in half, it might just buy a little more time for my kids to develop new technologies, to develop new cultural innovations, to develop a capacity to live more simply with a high level of reward," he said. "We're buying ourselves time for a more fundamental change. If we don't have that time, then the change won't happen. * Check your faucets and pipes regularly for leaks.

If you want your driveway to stand the test of time, you'd better know what you're doing. That applies to the builders who pour the driveways of new homes, contractors who come to re-do driveways, or private citizens who choose to pour their own," he says. "The bottom line is whether you do it on your own or get someone to do it for you, learn how to do it right. "It's extremely important that builders follow the proper steps to the letter," he says. "And there are clear steps out there to follow. Problems occur because people have their own ideas about how to do it. While what they do might work, the driveway may look fine, but it might not be up to code. That's why the Manitoba Ready Mix Concrete Association is putting on demonstrations on how to do it properly. We want to make sure...
