2009 Community Crime Awareness Day

Everyone from all three levels of government claim that they are the one who brought the nice weather for today’s event. However, Mr. Jake Dheer (station manger for Rogers in Mississauga) reminded everyone that it was Mayor Hazel McCallion who has been the source for the nice weather. This year the event was move to the surrounding area of the Living Arts Centre from the usual location around the Mississauga City Hall and the Central Library due to the renovation funded by new federal infrastructure jobs creation program. The new venue was a little too crowded for this event but everyone who attended this year community crime awareness was very accommodating.

Mayor Hazel McCallion thank the Mississauga Chinese Business Association for successfully organizing this year community crime awareness and thank the residences of Mississauga for once again making Mississauga the safest city in Canada since 2000. Mayor also thank all the young volunteers for the day and reminded all that it is the volunteers who are the corner stone for all successful events held in Mississauga. She is especially proud of all the youth in Mississauga for their hard work and readiness to volunteer.

Mississauga Chinese Business Association was very thankful of all the major sponsors for this year event and once again they were able to serve free Chinese foods for lunch to all the attendees. Approximately about 10,000 people attended this year Mississauga Community Crime Awareness day. Once again this year all the youngsters were able to go home with live gold fishes.

Btrust Chinese Supermarket Grand Opening

An apple a day keeps the doctor away but Btrust owner and operator, Mr. Yi Kui He, chose the fresh green apple to symbolize his commitment to the community that his supermarket will maintain the highest standard of freshness for all the groceries sold in his 52,000 sq. foot store.

Btrust held its grand opening at the front entrance of the newly-renovated store in warm and bright sunshine. Peel Police Chief Mike MetCalf, Mr. Stephen Chu (the president of the Mississauga Chinese Business Association), Mr. Victor Oh (the Vice Chair for SafeCity Mississauga), the property management, and the Mr. Jiang Dianchang Vice Consul of the People Republic of China were all present for the opening. After the ribbon cutting, Northern Lion performed their ritual Lion Dance to ensure both prosperity and good luck for the new store.

Btrust took over the management of the former H & H supermarket last year in November and undertook a major renovation to modernize the store. Today, the store’s ultra-modern looks and excellent organization should serve its new customers well. And, although Mississauga is home to numerous large and modern Chinese supermarkets, the newly-renovated Btrust store is a standout. The customers that the new supermarket attracts will benefit not only Btrust, but also all the other shops in the vicinity.
