        <![CDATA[<p>From Rob Bownridge, a former Shaw communications employee, who blew the whistle on how the telecommuncations giant was underpaying him and others by declaring them as independent contractors when they should have been paid as employees:</p>
<p>I just received this text from my good friend who works at Shaw TV:&nbsp; "So today is my (and everyone else's) first day as a Shaw employee!"&nbsp; So thank you... for helping out with this issue!</p>
<p>Brownridge&nbsp;says at least 10 contractors, who always met the legal definition of employees, have finally&nbsp;been offered employee status.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>From Chris Van Dyke, a single father who went public about rules that prevented him and other low income British Columbians from subsidized, affordable eyeglasses. Just four months after the story aired the Ministry of Social Development announced changes in the works that would allow families on income assistance to purchase eyeglasses online and claim the expense: </p>
<p>"I compliment the minister and the Liberal Party for expeditiously tweaking legislation to allow low-income clients access to purchase their eye-wear and lenses online. This will allow them lower costs and better quality eyewear, therefore improving their quality of life. I wish also to thank Go Public for the service they serve society and the public to prod such change and expose things that otherwise are hidden away from most of the public's awareness."</p>
