4. Abbotsford BC -The Future,” and answer the following question:What do you think the “human face” of your region will look like in 25 years? Why? (~100 words). When selecting an image to illustrate your answer, we realize that you won’t be able to take a picture of something that doesn’t exist yet! So feel free to exercise your drawing talents, or for those of you panicking at the thought of drawing (myself included!), you can be creative when selecting an image. For example, if I was going to identify the continued demographic expansion of Vancouver by immigrants from Asia as a possible future development, I might choose to show: i) a picture of a map with those countries of origin, or perhaps ii) a picture of Chinatown, or perhaps iii) a figure showing how immigration has increased in the last 20 years or so, a trend that could be projected into the future.
