I must admit there are not that many exciting moments in my life right now unless you consider working and studing exciting. If that’s the case then I’m really living life right now! I was working in Abbotsford last week and will be there again for a few days this week. I am helping out on a govenment audit which has been keeping me busy. I did though have the chance to go out one night and hang out with my old friend John A. Macdonald. Yah, I know. You must be confused as I am. Who has the same name as the first prime minister of Canada? Well, to make a long story short, his real name is Alexander and he actually changed is name to Xan. Yup, that’s right, Xan. I guess it’s short for Alexander or something. Oh, and his last name? He changed it to DeWinter. I’m not making this up. From now on, people will know him as Xan DeWinter. That’s quite the change from John A. Macdonald;)
Anyways, he gave me the grand tour of Abbotsford and showed me some parts of Mission as well. Abbotsford, as you know, is known as the “bible belt”. Well, if that’s the case, then the area we were at we must’ve been in the “buckle” of the belt. There were so many churches, left, right, and centre. I later learned that Abbotsford is the berry capital of Canada, has one the highest crime rates in B.C., and has the highest Sikh concentration in Canada. They shouldn’t call it the “bible belt” but instead the “utility belt”.
