With minimal maintenance requirements, it functions as a substantial thermal sink, allowing for warmth retention during colder months while keeping the interior comfortably cool in the summer—all without the need for air conditioning. Accessible Design for All. The property is surrounded by an acre of deer-proof fencing, creating a true haven. Within this retreat, 40 exotic fruit trees flourish with the help of drip irrigation, complemented by an extensive berry patch and mature flowering plants that enhance natural beauty.

From this background, Thaddeus has learned the value of hard work and perseverance.

Growing up the eldest in a family of seven, Thaddeus took the lead and stood out as the person everyone turned to for anything they needed. He has always been actively involved in his community and continues to do so with his sons and family here in Victoria.

Thaddeus studied at the University of Regina and was a football player with both the Regina Rams and the University of Saskatchewan Huskies.
