Dangerous intersection needs attention now, council told
THIS CHAMP IS OUT OF THIS WORLD
Brighton - Council instructed staff this week to prepare a report on what can be done to make the downtown's main intersection safer for pedestrians. The request for action came from two residents, Barb Herrington and Pat Alderman, who appeared as a delegation at council's meeting Monday night. Herrington said there have been several incidents at the Tintersection where Main Street meets Prince Edward Street. "I have crossed this intersection three different times in the last six, seven weeks and have had very close encounters, where I had to step back or get hit - close enough to touch the vehicles."
Alderman, who's a crossing guard, said she was struck by a vehicle while crossing the intersection wearing an orange vest and carrying a stop sign. "I am hired to protect and safely get the children and citizens of Brighton across this intersection and it is becoming almost impossible at times," she said. Alderman said she has also "witnessed several close calls, including Barb and her husband almost getting hit." Herrington spoke of one woman who was seriously injured while crossing the street with her dog. Her left knee cap was broken, her left shoulder was "smashed beyond repair" and had to be replaced, and she sufl See RESIDENTS, page 2

The problem, which has been discussed more than once at police services board meetings, is that the light for vehicles making a left-hand turn off Main onto Prince Edward turns green at the same time the light for pedestrians signals they can walk. It's a serious issue that should be addressed immediately before anyone else gets hurt, Herrington said. "This would not be a million dollar fix." Deputy Mayor Roger McMurray noted in mak-

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Members of YMCA Northumberland have formed a committee to fight any move that threatens its presence in Brighton. They plan to speak in support of the agency at a special public meeting council will hold July 19 to discuss the YMCA's future in town which has become uncertain with its lease in the Brighton Health Services Centre set to expire in October. Council was presented with four options in a staff report that looked at ways to open up space in the building to accommodate additional doctors. The option of negotiating with the YMCA to reduce its area by 2,000 square feet was shot down last month when the motion was defeated 4-3 in a recorded vote. But the Save Our YMCA committee is concerned that alternative remains a possibility and it's collecting signatures on a petition it started that says the agency's footprint, about 4,000 square feet, should not be reduced, because it's "an integral and positive part" of the community's physical, mental and social health. It is also a contributor to the economic wellbeing of local businesses. Cal MacAusland, the head of the Save Our YMCA committee, said more than 1,600 people will have signed the petition by the time it's handed over to council this week. "It's the community speaking: Figure out how to keep both groups together." The other three options

Sylvana Aicken and Cal MacAusland are members of the Save Our YMCA committee which will hand over to council this week a petition bearing more than 1,600 names. council has been given are: build an addition; ask other tenants such as Northumberland County to relocate their offices; or find another venue for the YMCA (the organization's chief executive officer Eunice Kirkpatrick says there is none currently available that's suitable). "It's a big decision," said MacAusland, a Corrections Canada senior manager who also works parttime at the Y.
Fellow committee member Sylvana Aicken said the YMCA's lease should be extended for the short term so that a final decision can be left with the next council after the municipal election in October. "I just feel they're rushing a decision," she said, knowing they're about to become a lame duck council before the end of the month. The issue should have been settled months ago
because "now we're in crisis mode," MacAusland said. The committee's focus is maintaining the square footage the YMCA current-
ly has for fitness classes, conditioning equipment, training space and change rooms. The facility offers members more than a means to exercise, it's also a place where they socialize, MacAusland said. Should circumstances force the YMCA to leave the community, "it's really going to hurt our seniors," he said. MacAusland said his committee understands the need for more physicians but he doesn't want the issue to become a matter of "pitting the YMCA against doctors.' "We see ourselves as both core contributors to health care in Brighton," with the YMCA's role being to keep people fit and at less risk of becoming sick. "It's really, really important to have a good exercise facility in every town and I really don't want to see it gone," said Aicken, a former fitness instructor in
Toronto. "We really need to grow with the population ... It's really a great attraction to have a Y in the municipality." Tony Clarke said he and his wife Rosemieke moved to Brighton from Ottawa seven years ago because it had a Y; otherwise they would have ended up in Cobourg. "Health and wellness is very important," he said. "We're here almost every day." Aicken, who's at the Y five days a week, said the facility is actually too small and could use more space to better accommodate classes. "It's going to be a great loss if they take it away," she said. "Give us an alternative, whether it's here ... (or) another place to go," Aicken said. "We need it." The public meeting will take place Thursday night at the King Edward Community Centre.

Don't mess with Brighton's YMCA, councillors told JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com BRIGHTON - A resident has warned council members he will mount a campaign against their re-election should they do anything to hurt the YMCA in town. Roger Green wrote all seven members after reading about the quandary they're facing in trying to open up space for more doctors at the Brighton Health Services Centre. A motion was made at the June 25 meeting for staff to begin negotiations
with the YMCA to reduce its footprint at the centre, but the motion didn't pass. Green, however, is concerned that the YMCA could still be adversely impacted by a decision of council, having been part of a citizen protest five years ago when it appeared the YMCA was ready to pull out, until a new lease was hammered out. "If you're going to deal with a good NGO (non-governmental organization) like the Y, you've got to have some stability in your attitude," he said, but he isn't confident council will
arrive at a solution that will serve the agency's best interests. "I don't find that they do things - especially things that involve dealing with other organizations - to be very professional, predictable and stable," he said. "They must be very hard to deal with." However, Green, a longtime YMCA member, is hopeful his letter will "stiffen some people's resolve" to do the right thing. The YMCA "has been a very good tenant (who's) doing a lot of good," he said.
Lack of space for new doctors needs resolution
northumberlandnews.com
JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Brighton needs more physicians but the local family health team has no room right now to accommodate them in town. "Any recruitment that would be happening in our community is difficult because we don't have any space to show ... potential candidates," said Wendy Parker, executive director of the Brighton Quinte West Family Health Team. It currently has six physicians in town and a seventh is scheduled to open a practice next April, which makes it "relatively urgent" that space be freed up at the Brighton Health Services Centre where the family health team is located. As the landlord of the building, the municipality has been given four options, one of which is to reduce by 2,000 square feet the amount of space taken up by YMCA Northumberland. That would be enough to accommodate two additional physicians, Parker said. Council rejected that option last month and it has scheduled a public
meeting this week to consider its next step. "If we're going to recruit physicians to our community we need to be able to show the space where they're going to practise and at this point in time we don't have that ability," Parker said. "Most young physicians want to join a team," she said, because of the extra care that's provided by a
group of interdisciplinary professionals whose number includes social workers, dietitians, pharmacists and nurses. Parker estimated Brighton could use at least two more doctors in addition to the one coming next April. It's hard to give an exact number "because we don't know who's retiring," or when, she added.

Excellent turnout for information session on retirement residence JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Oxley Manor, the full service retirement residence being planned for the South-East corner of Main and Greenwood streets, has captured the interest of area residents. Around 150 turned out for a public information session at the Masonic Lodge Hall on Monday afternoon that its proponent, Sussex Retirement Living, had organized. A booklet was made available that provided an overview of the project - a three-storey building with 122 suites that are a mix of independent living, assisted living and Memory Care units (for seniors with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia who require specialized care). "I feel very encouraged by the level of interest ... (and) the fact that people understand what the project is," John Cathrae, Sussex's chief financial officer, said afterwards. "Today's seniors are much more educated about what a (retirement) residence is like." For the $20 million project to proceed, an Official Plan amendment is required, which Sussex has made a condition of purchase in acquiring the 2.4 hectare (six acre) property from 8597685 Canada Inc, a development company. "It sounds really good," said Jack Matthews, who attended the meeting with his wife Beverly. "We liked what we heard." "It will depend on the price whether it can appeal to the people of Brighton," Beverly said. Local residents "won't have million dollar houses to sell (and) they need places as well as anyone else, not just newcomers." Sussex hasn't set the price it will charge for rent but Cathrae said previously it will be "in the general range of what retirement homes are in other markets" starting at less than $3,000 a

"It's a tremendous opportunity for this municipality, to welcome such a facility here," said Mayor Mark Walas who attended the twohour session. "It's much needed, as we've heard for many, many years here in this community, and I'm every excited." He was pleased Sussex officials are looking for "bottom up direction from the residents as to what the facility will be, as opposed to them saying this is what we're offering. They're looking (to) the community to help shape and design and bring this residence to the community in a way that Brighton wants to see it." Dan Walker attended because of his elderly parents. "It sounds great," he said. "There's no doubt this area needs something like this." It won't be "an eyesore (but) something that's going to fit the community building-wise."

Buying products made in Canada makes sense

There are many benefits to staying close to home, Alicia Vandine writes
northumberlandnews.com
If your friends are like mine you have been having discussions about how they are changing their buying patterns and becoming more conscious of knowing where items they purchase are made. It used to be that they didn't care; their purchases were driven mostly by price and very seldom did the question come to mind - Where was this product made? Starting in the 1990s we saw a steady decline in our manufacturing sector as companies chose to move their manufacturing operations out of Canada in an attempt to compete for this price-driven consumer. We all know the consequence of this to our economy not to mention the acceptance of lower quality standards. I know I have used the adage too, "Oh well, guess they don't make them like they used too." In light of the recent political climate, the idea of buying Canadian is in the spotlight. Products made here generally have a higher standard of quality and meet our country's health and safety standards. We are also reducing our carbon footprint, as products made closer to home require much less transportation. We are lucky to live in Northumberland County.

ALICIA VANDINE Column We have the opportunity to buy locally produced goods at local farmers markets and our grocery stores are stocking more Canadian products from artisan food companies. Our communities host events that allow us to purchase one-of-akind products from local artists, designers, and other home-based entrepreneurs. We also have small business owners who offer top-notch customer service, superior craftsmanship and of course, invaluable expertise. Every dollar we spend in Canada has a ripple effect; securing jobs and helping to create new ones. And let's not forget, when Canadian businesses are successful, they give back to the communities they serve by supporting local charities. It just makes sense to buy local and Canadian-made products over foreign-made ones first, and buy these as often as you can. I get it, it's not always possible to buy Canadian but the next time you make a purchase, look at the label and consider, where was this product made? – Alicia Vandine is a freelance reporter with the Brighton Independent.

Be wary of strangers seeking help Brighton - Police say a familiar scam with a new twist has surfaced that exploits people's goodwill. The scheme involves exchanging money for jewelry to help strangers in distress. A Brighton resident told police a white SUV with a male, female and two children drove into his driveway. The man got out of the vehicle and ap-
proached the homeowner, saying he had lost his wallet and needed money to get his family back to Windsor. He claimed to be from Dubai. The man handed over a ring on his finger and a chain around his neck and asked the resident to hold onto them as collateral for the $200 he was given. He insisted the vic-

MUNICIPAL ELECTION
Coombs sets sights on another 4 years as Cramahe mayor
Still has 'a lot to give' after 3 terms, he says
northumberlandnews.com
JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Cramahe Township - A few months away from completing his third term as mayor, Marc Coombs is eager to continue in the role for another four years. "I greatly enjoy doing it, it's a fantastic experience, and we have a lot of success ... not just me but the community as a whole and council over that whole period of time," he said. "And I feel I have a lot to give from a leadership point of view, (as well as) a vision for where we're going as a community ... It's exciting times." A list he compiled of the achievements he has been involved with includes construction of Northumberland Hills Public School, the first joint emergency services base in Northumberland County, and the first Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre in Ontario. Colborne's wastewater treatment plant and industrial park were expanded, and the town hall in Castleton was restored and its library renovated. Coombs pointed out the municipality is also spending millions of dollars upgrading its road structure. He noted the confidence businesses have shown in the township during his tenure. A Tim Hortons franchise opened in Colborne, the Big Apple is planning a huge expansion, and TCO AgroMart in Trenton is going to build an automated fertilizer blending plant with a retail agriculture supply store and office building. "We're almost completely full now in our downtown for businesses," Coombs said. "We have a nice mix." The growth in housing projected for Cramahe will

Complete fire ban now in place JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - A complete fire ban is now in effect in the municipality. Fire Chief Rick Caddick announced the ban in a news release issued last Wednesday morning, saying "the danger of rapid fire spread is increasing to the dangerous level" as a result of continuing "extremely dry" conditions. With the situation being what it is and "not really a lot of rain in the forecast, we decided it best to implement a full burn ban on outdoor burn-

"The fine is $200 if we have to attend for a burn," he said. "It goes up if it's a fire that's out of control." The $200 fine "is just an attendance fee if you are having a fire during a burn ban." The ban applies to any open air burnings, such as fire pits. "You are still allowed to
use your propane gas-fired barbecues, stuff like that," Ogden said. The ban will remain in effect until further notice. With everything so dry right now because of the heat, "a little gust of wind will really spread a fire," Ogden said. The ban could be lifted at a later date after "we have a good steady rain, not a thunderstorm," he said.

Mayor Marc Coombs says he will be seeking a fourth term as mayor of Cramahe Township. support a larger commercial tax base and allow the municipality to keep taxes low, he said. With "unprecedented development" expected to take place over the next four years it's critical the township has a mayor "with the experience, vision and capability to preside over these important projects and to deal with everyone with honesty and integrity in an open and ethical fashion," he stated in a news release. A challenger had yet to step forward when he was interviewed. One area that "needs to be greatly improved" is communication. The overhaul of Cramahe's website "will be huge for us," he said. Residents will be better informed about what's happening and they'll be able to conduct a two-way dialogue. The result will be "a quicker response" to issues raised by residents. The "biggest concern"
Coombs hears from people has to do with road conditions. "That comes with having a limited budget with limited resources, both in staffing and money to do those projects," he said. Even so, "we've done very well," he said, pointing to the hard topping of gravel roads that the municipality has done, "which has greatly reduced the number of complaints from what we got years ago." In Colborne, it's a matter of "slowly urbanizing" streets, replacing ditches with curbs and gutters, he said. Coombs, who's 54, said elected officials must always remember Cramahe is a small agricultural community with a historic village and make sure "we stay true to those roots." Residential development has to be managed in a way that we "not lose our character or who we are, as has happened in larger centres" as a result of growth.

Motorsport helping hurting veterans transition to civilian life JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - A local not-forprofit that uses motorsport to help disabled veterans and members of the military who are injured, ill or wounded with their recovery, rehabilitation and retraining celebrated its first anniversary this month. "It's been an extremely emotional year. A lot of highs but some lows, as well," said Diezel Lodder, chief executive officer of Operation Motorsport, which he started with his wife Tiffany. The past 12 months have been "exciting, stressful, (with) a lot of new beginnings," he said. Speaking at the organization's anniversary celebration held at their home in Hilton on July 5, Tiffany, who's the executive director, said Operation Motorsport worked with 23 active beneficiaries and had another 12 waiting to participate in its Excite program. "We delivered 164 recovery training days ... culminating in one offer of employment and one job placement," she said. "This is outstanding." Motorsport can be "restorative and used effectively as a recovery tool for our injured soldiers and wounded veterans, and I've been truly blessed this year to have met and worked alongside ... our country's finest." "As I look forward, there are so many opportunities to continue to provide exposure, inclusion and accep-

The organization has three programs - Excite, Engage and Empower. "There is no set path for any of these guys," Diesel said. "They get a purpose, they get camaraderie, they get (the) opportunity to either take part in either diversionary therapy ... or motorsport diversion." Diversionary therapy uses recreational motorsports activities to supplement conventional clinical therapy by promoting self-esteem and personal fulfilment. Beneficiaries interact directly with
representatives of original equipment manufacturers, race team personnel and legendary race drivers at special events known as car corrals. They also meet people with the same interests and form relationships that lead to other opportunities in motorsports, including car clubs, rallies, and show-andshines. In the immersion program, beneficiaries are embedded in professional North American motorsports race teams and assigned tasks and responsibilities appropriate to their skills and interests, such as tire techni-

Their degree of participation "depends on what they want to do, how involved do they want to be," said Diezel, who served in the Canadian Armed Forces for 35 years before retiring two years ago as a senior parachute rigger with more than 1,500 jumps.
Operation Motorsport has "no sustainable funding at this point," he said. "Right now, we're solely funded through private donors. We have no corporate sponsors and we have no government funding." Its budget for the first year was roughly $20,000. "We would not survive without the kindness of folks
and value-in- donations," Diezel said, such as race teams providing hotel rooms and plane tickets, and race tracks providing free tickets for family members to attend. Operation Motorsport has applied to the Canada Revenue Agency for a charitable number to boost donations. It's a lengthy process but MP Kim Rudd, who attended the celebration, said she would do what she can to move it along. "Thank you all for what you do," she told the Lodders and all those who help them. "I'm so touched." DeWayne Crawford, a retired chief warrant officer who suffered a traumatic brain injury during one of his tours of duty, was presented a certificate welcoming him to the Operation Motorsport team as its beneficiary trustee for the United States. Diezel cited his "positive energy, his commitment to what we're doing (and) his belief in helping other veterans in transitioning." "He has been with us the entire way," Diezel said, and has "just blossomed." "It astounds me every time I think of how far DeWayne has come on his journey," Tiffany said.

Dan Buchanan comes by his well-earned nickname honestly, columnist writes
people. In 2010, he returned to Brighton to immerse himself in his "history work." In 2015, he published Murder in the Family; The Dr. King Story, about the infamous Brighton doctor who poisoned his wife. He was the only person ever hanged in Northumberland (1859). "The murderer, my third grand-uncle, lived on the same farm where I grew up. It was family lore. Growing up, we were never supposed to talk about it. I developed a file over many years." Buchanan literally collects history, like putting together pieces of an endless puzzle. "I persistently study all history because it's real, the study of human nature. There is nothing more interesting than what people have done, determining why they did it, and how their actions

You know you are embedded in the town's cultural fabric when you own your nickname. One only has to mention The History Guy and everyone knows you speak of Dan Buchanan: "In 2011, while doing some history pieces for Hilton Hall, I was walking down Main Street when a woman stopped and pointed at me. I thought I was in trouble for something, and she said, "You're the History Guy!" Buchanan was born and raised on the family farm in Codrington. Upon finishing high school, he hitchhiked for a few months through Europe: "My main shtick was I took Latin all through high school. In Rome, I spent two weeks reading inscriptions on the stones. (Laughing.)" Buchanan attended journalism at the University of Western Ontario: "National Geographic was my favourite read. For years, I believed that was journalism, but all they wanted to teach me was to make three paragraphs into one. I dropped out after a year. (History was his favourite class and he was honours at the time.)" Buchanan went to work for the next 25 years in a mix of technical support and IT jobs from London to Calgary to Toronto: "I needed to work, to be physically productive. In 2000, while living in Toronto, I started to do serious genealogy. I spent every night in archives, developing a database I call community genealogy, a web of interconnected family trees of our history. I wanted to do something tangible and it took on a life of its own." His site, Trees By Dan, crossconnects close to 100,000

played out over time. I need historical context, body and details. People don't do something without a reason. There is always potential of building upon our own historical mosaic. The richness is there; it's a question of bringing it out in a way that is consumable by the public. People like stories with personalities and conflict. I try to present history in an entertaining way." On June 30, Buchanan launched his second book 38 Hours to Montreal, the story of governor- general Charles Thomson's 1840 stagecoach trip from Toronto to Montreal in winter. It was a time of reform including the union of Upper and Lower Canada. There were lots of changes on many political and judicial levels, long before the railroad came through." The book describes each town along the way including Brighton, a fascinating travelogue of old. "The road is a character," said Buchanan. "Now I get to talk about the book. I love public speaking. This is my second career." The History Guy's work ethic transcends his passion: "Coming from fundamental Scottish

National high jump champ hopes to compete in 2020 Olympics JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Winning the men's U20 high jump at the Canadian Track and Field Championships in Ottawa "was a nice feeling," says Sam Hall, even though it was with a "low height" - 2.06 metres and not a personal best. Speaking at East Northumberland Secondary School's field and track team summer twilight meet held July 10, Hall said he will spend the rest of the summer training, "just trying to get my body into good shape for next season." He competed at the nationals as a member of the
University of Toronto Track Club, where he trains every Saturday. The 18-year-old athlete's goal is to represent Canada at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. "I'm getting up to some good heights," he said. "It's a little far off yet but I think it's definitely possible." Last season was a "really good" one for Hall. He won a gold medal at OFSAA and set a school record at the Eastern Regionals in Ottawa with a jump of 2.13 metres. Even so, "I wasn't as consistent as I would have liked to have been," he said. The key to getting better at high jumping is "all about visualizing" the approach to
the bar and "doing something different every now and then, just try to change it up and see what works better." Hall admitted he trains very little at home. "I should be training more," he said, but "I really like more of a track setting." Last week's fun competition featured events open to all ages as well as for children 13 and under. The winners for each event were: 1500 m - Rory McGarvey, 15, 4:14; 200 m Jacob Gareau, 25, 22.9; U13 80 m hurdles - Michael Warner, 10, 13.8; U13 80 m - Layla Vis, 12.8; 300 m hurdles - Spencer Watson, 45.1 (33-inch hurdles), Morgan Newbery, 49.9

Rotary Youth Exchange builds peace one young person at a time
northumberlandnews.com
The Youth Exchange Program is a significant aspect of Rotary that the Brighton Club is proud to support. At our last meeting in June we said goodbye to Emmy, our 'inbound' exchange student from Norway. Emmy arrived in August 2017 and attended ENSS this past year. During her year in Brighton, she had several host families that she lived with. She made many friends that will impact her life forever. As a club, we were introduced to our new 'outbound'
student; Rochelle, a Brighton student at ENSS will leave her home and family in August to travel to Taiwan. Rochelle will spend a year in Taiwan, where she will go to high school, live and become part of the local community. She will be an ambassador for Canada and Brighton. Taiwan was her first country choice of those offered. It will be a challenge, but one we believe she is capable of. The Rotary Club of Brighton wish her a wondrous year ahead. Rotary will be there to help and
support her. In August, the Rotary Club of Brighton will welcome a new 'inbound' student to Canada and Brighton. Eloisa will join us from Brazil to begin her adventure in Brighton and ENSS. Exchange students unlock their true potential to: • develop lifelong leadership skills; • learn a new language and culture; • build lasting friendships with young people from around the world; • become a global citizen.
Exchanges for students 15 to 19 years old are sponsored by Rotary clubs in more than 100 countries. If you are interested in the Rotary Youth Exchange Program, contact a Rotarian. The Rotary Club supported the community with donations to: • $750 ENSS graduation awards; • $909 to support Five Counties Children Centre; • $500 to support Skate Canada. Brighton Rotarians par-
ticipated in: • Brighton Big Give providing barbecue services; • Brighton No Frills Eat Together Barbecue; • Annual Golf Tournament at Barcovan Golf and Country Club, June 18; • Rotary International Convention in Toronto, June 24-27. Upcoming Brighton Rotary Events: • Street Dance featuring Bentwood Rocker - July 28. Plan to join us Saturday evening for music, dancing and socializing.
• Exchange students will soon return to their home countries, and Brighton's own ENSS student will return from a year in France and our new outbound student will leave. If you want to have some fun and help improve our community, join us for breakfast on Friday morning, 7 a.m. at Harbourview Café, 5 Bay St. in Gosport.

CHRIS SIMON chris.simon@simcoe.com There's a chance your snail mail may slow to a crawl soon. Canadian Union of Postal Workers national president Mike Palecek called negotiations with Canada Post "frustrating" July 13, and warned residents the postal service is forcing his bargaining units to seriously contemplate strike action. About 50,000 postal workers have been without a collective agreement since the winter. The sides have met to discuss a new deal more than 100 times. However, the union is setting a final strike vote for Sept. 9. "This round of bargaining is likely going to define the postal service going forward for a generation," Palecek said in an interview. "We're putting all kinds of issues on the
bargaining table that are not just for ourselves but the public as well. Postal workers have done absolutely everything in their power to address these without a labour dispute. We campaigned, we organized town hall meetings, we changed the government. Still, nothing has happened. We're on to our last resort: a strike. That's where Canada Post is driving us." Canada Post "set us on to this path" through an "absolute refusal" to negotiate, he said. Philipe Legault, a spokesperson for Canada Post, said a mediator was brought into the collective bargaining process in late 2017. However, the postal service will not comment on specific aspects of negotiations. "Canada Post negotiators are working hard to find common ground with CUPW and believe a quick resolution is in the
best interest of customers and employees," he said in an email. A number of issues built up over the last few years because the previous Conservative government refused to negotiate with the union, Palecek said. About 8,000 of the employees work in a rural or suburban setting, with the majority being women. They are paid about 30 per cent less than their 42,000 urban-area counterparts. The union is also pushing for the establishment of a Canada Post bank, electrification of the postal service's 13,000-vehicle fleet, and installation of electric vehicle-charging stations at post offices across the country. "This is an opportunity to bring in new services that will not only bring in revenue but that the public actually needs," Palecek said.

Brighton will begin smoke testing its sewer system later this month JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - The municipality will use a special non-toxic smoke to locate breaks and defects in its sanitary sewer system, when it begins testing on July 23. The study, which involves opening and entering manholes in streets
and utility easements, will also reveal openings where storm and other surface water enter the system. The municipality said in a news release that the smoke leaves no residue or stains, and has no effect on plant or animal life. It has "a distinctive but not unpleasant odour," which lasts for on-
ly a few minutes where there is adequate ventilation. The same is true for its visibility. It warns some smoke could enter a home or place of business where plumbing appliances are connected to the sanitary system if: . vents connected to a building's sewer pipes are inadequate, defective, or

TUPPER, Georgina Shirley June 30, 1930 ~ July 13, 2018 Georgie, the girl of my dreams, the love of my life, my sweetheart of 66 years; the mother of our children, Karen (Julian), Gary (Dec. 1964), Stuart (Sarah); grandma to Colin (Jamie), Ian (Cassie), Abbie and Erica; and a Mum to special friend Lesley, peacefully slipped her earthly bonds July 13, 2018, the end of a nine-year journey with Alzheimers. She was 88 years old. She is survived by her husband, Jack Tupper. The youngest child of the Miles and Margaret Little (nee MacDonald) family, she was predeceased by her brother Gary (Thora) and sisters Margaret (Mel), Beryl (Bob) and Dorothy. She cherished her large extended family of nephews, nieces and cousins-bythe-dozens. A lady of grace, charm and sincerity, she leaves a trail of beloved friends across the nation who will fondly remember the gift of her friendship and the pleasure of her company. The happy times we shared, the warmth of her embrace and her gorgeous smile that improved any day are memories that will keep her alive in our hearts and minds for as long as we live, but the awful truth that she no longer walks among us makes us very sad. In lieu of other tributes, a donation in Georgie's memory can be made to the Alzheimer Society of Canada, to The Girl Guides of Canada, or to a charity of your choice. A Celebration of her Life will be held at a later date. Condolences: Serenity Funeral Service Leduc. 780-980-3688 www.serenity.ca
