St. Andrews students show love for reading Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – The students of St. Andrews School won $1,000 from Coles bookstore at the Cornwall Square for their prolific love of reading.

On Friday, June 21, students from St. Andrews were invited to Coles to pick out books to take home with them for free. This is after they collectively read tens of thousands of pages throughout the school year.

The Grade 3 class of Elizibeth Girgis was the most prolific of the entire school, reading more than 52,000 pages throughout the year, with one student reading more than 9,000 pages on his own.

“I’m just so proud of them,” said Girgis, the Primary Literacy Lead at St. Andrews. “They are

young and just starting their love of reading now. At the beginning of the year, they were like “uh, we don’t want to do silent reading, but now they are asking when they can do it.”

She told the story of how one of her students has a love of video games, but after starting the reading program, he asked for a series of Goosebumps books for Christmas.

The contest challenged all students to read at least 1,000 pages. Along with her Grade 3 class, the top readers from the other classes at St. Andrews were also invited to Coles to pick out books for themselves.

The students got the books for free, and were allowed to hang on to them over the summer, but would return the books to the school in the fall so they could be enjoyed by other students.

Grade 3 student Julia McBain read 5,000

Shawna O’Neill CORNWALL, Ontario – After Kaylee Martin’s high school graduation ceremony on Thursday, June 20, she attended Philos with her family to celebrate her time at École secondaire catholique La Citadelle. The 18-year-old local didn’t expect to save a life in the same evening, especially her grandmother’s.

“When they were done supper and stood up to leave, my mother (Micheline Leger) collapsed, and Kaylee and my sister caught her,” explained Martin’s uncle, Shane Brisson. “My niece completely took over the situation. She took charge and didn’t freak out…it was a huge save.”

Brisson said that Martin quickly lowered her grandmother to the floor and started to perform CPR, restarting her grandmother’s heart while delegating others to assist and call 911.

Leger is now in the ICU at the Cornwall Community Hospital (CCH) recovering and will attend a hospital in Ottawa for further testing.

As a volunteer firefighter of 11 years, Brisson was blown away by how Martin handled the situation with such quick action and maturity, recognizing that not everyone has the skill set to react and handle such a high stress situation, especially with a loved one.

“It was chaotic and for her to do it how she did is unreal…we just really want to do something to recognize her,” said Brisson.

Described as humble and hard-working, Martin is the captain of her Cornwall Typhoons hockey team and was recently recognized at the Lion’s Club Sports Awards for her sportsmanship. The responsible and outgoing teen also received scholarships for her post secondary

Uncle Shane Brisson and aunt Stacy Norris are incredibly proud of their niece, as is the entire family.

“The family is very proud of her…her grandmother was in tears at the hospital because her granddaughter saved her life. If Kaylee wasn’t there, I don’t know what would have happened,” said Brisson.

“I like the amazing adventures Harry Potter goes on,” she said.

St. Andrews Principal Dan Curtis praised his team of teachers for their efforts in promoting reading amongst the students.

“We have a fantastic team of teachers who are surgical in their approach in their encouragement of reading,” he said.

Curtis explained that the promotion of literacy skills was a part of the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSBEO)’s new theme for the school year, Joy Springing from a Julia McBain holding the book she chose from Loving Heart.

“It is about creating an environment where Coles after her Grade 3 class won the Coles Reading Challenge. (Nick Seebruch/ Seaway News) students want to run to school,” he said.

CORNWALL, Ontario – On Saturday, June 22, the Cornwall Police Service (CPS) announced that a body had been discovered in the St. Lawrence River near the RCAF boat launch in Cornwall.

Book of history being launched at Cline House Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – Heart of the City has completed its Historical Walking Tour of Cornwall and now the more than 40 beautifully created plaques and their histories have been compiled into a book.

“People have been telling us throughout this process that they wanted to see a book of all of the illustrations and histories showcased by the plaques,” said Todd Lihou, Centretown Coordinator with Heart of the City.

The book will be debuted on Thursday, June 27 at Cline House Gallery on the corner of Second and Amelia streets in Cornwall at an event running from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.

At the event, guests will have the opportunity to talk with artist Pierre Giroux, the creative mind behind the plaque illustrations and get the chance to purchase a hard cover copy of the book signed by Giroux.

The hard cover edition is $60, while a soft cover edition will also be available for $50. Copies will be on sale after the event at the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce.

“There’s an appetite for local history that we have tapped into with this tour. Since the plaques began to be installed three years ago people have been asking us ‘When is the book coming out?’We’re happy to say the book is ready and we have every confidence it will be a success,” said Lihou.

Cornwall Waterfest returns Aug. 10

Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – On Saturday, Aug. 10, Waterfest returns to Cornwall. Organizers of the annual dragonboat races say that they hope for another fun, successful event on Cornwall’s waterfront.

“We are trying to repeat the great success we had last year,” said Lea Emard, one of the event’s organizers. “Last year, we had 21 teams from Cornwall, SD&G and some from as far away as Ottawa and Peterborough.”

So far Emard says there are 15 to 18 teams that have registered so far. To register for the

event, go to www.cornwallwaterfest.com Those who have never been out on the water in a dragonboat are welcome to participate too, and the Cornwall Waterfest organizing committee is offering practice and on the water training. Emard says that four new participants have been trained so far this year.

“We think this is a very unique opportunity for people to experience the water and the waterfront in a way that they haven’t before,” she said.

For more information, or to inquire about sponsorships, email cornwallwaterfest@gmail. com

Waterfest is taking place on August 10.

Very sad day in the history of Canada Sultan Jessa

Ever since moving to Canada in 1973 from my native Tanzania, I have been extremely proud of this country. I can only boast that Canada is the best country in the world.

It is a country built by immigrants. And no one should forget this. We all like to see Canada strong and united. The days of Quebec separating from the rest of Canada, I thought, were

dead.

This month was not only a sad but also a shameful day when Premie5r Francois Legault’s government passed a Bill 21, which is toxic to the province’s future.

This controversial bill bans the wearing of religious symbols by certain public officials.

This bill is much harsher that most expected.

If you are a turban wearing Sikh, you will no longer be able to work where you have authority. The simple example is a police officer or a school teacher. The same will apply to Jews, Muslims and others.

The Quebec government is forgetting and

completely ignoring the fact that that turbans, kippahs and hijabs are part of religious practice.

I don’t even agree with removing a cross or crucifix.

The Native people or Aboriginals should also be allowed to wear their headgear if they so prefer. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) has no objection to this.

I once spent six years serving on the RCMP committee on diversification when important decisions like this were made.

Bill 21 was completely unnecessary.

There is no way a minority Sikh community

or Muslims will impose their culture on the rest of Quebec.

Quebec always prides itself on being welcoming and open.

This province is a dynamic and progressive.

Many Sikhs, Jews and Muslims will consider moving to other provinces where their rights are respected.

Let us hope this stupid and unnecessary law will be repealed. Minorities in Quebec are in for some very rough waters. A vast majority of them speak French and were comfortable living in the province.

Does Quebec want an exodus?

I’m going to sell you on something

I recently heard an interview with Erling Kagge, about his book “One Step at a Time”. In it he said, “‘After having put my shoes on and let my thoughts wander, I am sure of one thing - to put one foot in front of the other is one of the most important things we do.” He’s as passionate about walking as I am about aviation, travel and dogs, to name but a few.

I agree with Kagge, but my almost eight decades of walking, hiking and carrying slabs of

sedimentary rocks have taken their toll on my knees. For other reasons, my wife Juliet also finds extensive walking to be a challenge.

Fortunately, paddling is one of the passions Juliet and I share. Give us at least three inches of water under the keel of our canoe and we’re off!

We’ve cruised down the St. Lawrence River from Lake Ontario to Cornwall and have started exploring its lower regions. The lakes and rivers of the Adirondacks are our favourite canoeing haunts.

Why our passion for canoeing? It’s affordable, quiet, non-polluting, versatile, can sometimes be very exciting, and takes us places that would otherwise be inaccessible. In a canoe, two can travel together, despite their differen-

ces in strength and skill.

Even when I was in my prime (that was long, long ago), I found hiking the High Peaks with a forty-pound pack tugging at my shoulders to be a bit of a challenge. There are limits to the pleasures of walking.

However, thanks to our sixteen-foot pointed-at-both-ends Kevlar wonder, we can easily transport hundreds of pounds of camping stuff with us: an ice box (for the first three days of fresh food and chilled water), canned goods, a propane stove for cooking, a nylon tent for shelter, sleeping bags (for our other way of keeping warm) and even some carefully seasoned hardwood to entertain us as we gaze at the twinkling stars and listen to the eerie call of the loons.

Unlike in a rowboat, in a canoe we can gaze at where we’re going, rather than where we’ve been. Unlike power boats, a canoe just needs a vehicle rooftop rather than a trailer to take it from point A to its put-in-place. No need to search for a boat launching ramp; any sloping shoreline will do for a canoe. The cost of a quality canoe is within a four-digit dollar range.

Power boat: add at least one more zero. Canoe annual costs for fuel: groceries, and a new paddle every twenty years. Power boat: $1.30/liter, plus busted props and storage and cocooning from November to May. I could never sell life insurance, mattresses, cars or duct-cleaning services as a career, but I’d be glad to convince you to buy a canoe.

Rachel’s Kids creates Autism kits for all SD&G first responders Nick Seebruch

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

SOUTH GLENGARRY, Ontario – During the month of April, Rachel’s Kids House of Hope held their #LetYourBlueShineThrough campaign, which aimed to raise money by selling blue T-shirts and other merchandise.

The campaign was spearheaded by Kalem Payment, a 13-year-old local boy with Autism.

“I am so proud of how much this campaign allowed Kalem to grow and become so passionate when speaking about his Autism,” said Kim Lauzon, Rachel’s Kids Executive Director. “His ability to share his story in front of schools, adults, large groups and media about his Autism in both French and English is certainly something to shine about! We could not have chosen a more suitable campaign chair and we love that he continues to advocate for Autism, in all that he does.”

The campaign raised over $6,000 and Rachel’s Kids decided to use the money raised by that campaign to give back to the community.

Rachel’s Kids used the money to purchase Autism kits, or ASD Emergency Vehicle Calming

The kit includes Noise Cancelling Headphones, Time Timer, Weighted Lap Pad, PEC Cards with universal images, Fidgets and Tactile Objects, a Massage Roller, Bubbles, a Pinwheel and of course, TED the Rachel’s Kids

Bear.

Over 30 kits were purchased thanks to the #LetYourBlueShineThrough campaign. South Glengarry Deputy Mayor praised the generosity of Rachel’s Kids.

“I think this is a great initiative and another tool in the chest for our first responders,” he said.

“It is another way for them to deal with a situation and bring calmness.”

MARTINTOWN, Ontario – Locals showed their love for fresh berries and baked goods on Saturday, June 22 at the Martintown Mill Preservation Society’s annual Strawberry Festival.

“We have fresh strawberries for sale by the basket…you can have some with ice cream or whip cream with them. We have strawberry lemonade, strawberry shortcake…” said Barb Bracken, Member of the Board of Directors of the Society, about some of the delicious seasonal options available. “We do events like this in the summer and will be open every Sunday from July 7 to Sept. 15, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.”

The event saw 300 attendees enjoying the produce of Dentz Orchards & Berry Farms in Iroquois. Local musicians Django Libre entertained the crowds and other baked goods were also available from members of the local United Church.

“It’s an opportunity for people to come out and see where we are and get to see what we’ve done,” said Bracken.

Bracken explained that this year, the Society took all the plaster off of one wall in the Mill and repointed the stone.

“We have to spend a certain amount of money a year to be a charitable organization so we are going to be continuing to improve the Mill,” said Bracken.

The Mill will be host to a number of anticipated events this year, like artists and vendors displaying their craft on a weekly basis, local authors holding readings from books they are working on that often pertain to SDG, archivists explaining the history of the building during events like Open Doors, and annual Halloween and Christmas festivities.

“We try to stay interesting for the people of Martintown and we get a lot of good volunteers.

When people come out to do their thing here… there are volunteers waiting for them,” commended Bracken.

It’s a start, but there is a lot to talk about Nick Seebruch

This past Wednesday, Cornwall City Council did something it hasn’t done in nearly 10 years, meet with our neighbours on the other side of the bridge.

On Wednesday night, Cornwall City Council and the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne (MCA) held a joint meeting. They took the time to introduce themselves to one another, go over the features of each municipality and have a joint dinner. I think this was a great start, but there’s a lot of substantive issues to work on.

The MCA is one of our closest neighbours, and I think that it is the municipality with which we have the most amount of common issues that we’re jointly facing.

While we share some services with the United Counties of SD&G, we share more geography with Akwesasne.

The development of the waterfront along the St. Lawrence River, on both sides, will affect both municipalities. This alone, is a major issue that Cornwall and Akwesasne must tackle together.

Cornwall and the MCA already own the Cornwall Harbour. When that property was purchased in 2016 it was agreed that the land must be operated as a harbour for, I believe, five years. We are fast approaching the five-year anniversary of the purchase of the harbour lands, but, to my knowledge, there are no plans to develop that land when that milestone passes. Cornwall and the MCA should be working closely now, as to what the future of these lands look like.

Personally, I think that the harbour lands could be developed into a boardwalk, similar to the one in Old Montreal. Features, and anchor attractions should be considered to draw the public down to the waterfront. Cornwall is already considering pop-up shops, this would be the perfect place for a whole pop-up market.

Beyond geographic and economic interests, there are also personal and individual connections between the people of Akwesasne and Cornwall.

Many students at schools here in Cornwall, live in Akwesasne or are MCA members.

Our border is divided by the CBSA check point and the toll booth.

Our border check point is manned by CBSA officers from both Cornwall and Akwesasne and is the tenth busiest border crossing in Canada, but 70 per cent of the traffic are the same residents passing back and forth between our two municipalities during the daily course of their lives.

Decisions made in the City of Cornwall affect the people of Akwesasne, and decisions made by the MCA, affect people who live in Cornwall. I applaud both councils for realizing the need to have closer ties, and acting on that realization. Here’s hoping it is not another 10 years before there is another such meeting.

I think the next step should be the formal establishment of a joint committee or agency that actively identifies and cooperates on joint interests of the two municipalities.

What do you think readers? In what ways can Cornwall better operate with its Southern neighbours.

Pop-up on the waterfront Dear Editor, When you have witnessed the results of having Rib Fest during the summer, the answer to the question about Pop Up Shops should be obvious. This would give an ongoing opportunity for families to take advantage of making the Park their destination of choice.

When the ball park first opened we had a canteen in the Associations building. We served hot dogs, french fries, cold drinks , ice cream, hamburgs and when

available even fish rolls (my food of choice) On July the first I brought our popcorn maker down to the park with butter, salt and paper lunch bags. As people parked and caught the aroma of corn popping it drew them in like flies. A great evening was had by all looking to catch the fireworks and this just added to it.

So, for me, it would be a Big Yes to the Question.

Legal Aid Dear Editor, I am pleased that the Seaway News printed an article in the June 19th edition to let everyone know about the roughly 30 percent cut to the provincial Legal Aid Service. Community legal clinics and student legal aid services societies are at the front lines of offering legal services to the most vulnerable people in Ontario. I can speak from personal experience about how vital Legal Aid is in making sure fair and equal justice is available to all. When I was a single parent working 3 jobs, my Legal Aid lawyer was able to make sure I was granted a divorce that was fair not only to me, but my children as

well. When my son was in the wrong place at the wrong time a Legal Aid lawyer came to our rescue right there in the court house. He saved him from being found guilty by association, and left with a record. I am fortunate enough these days to longer need the service of Legal Aid but I will always be grateful to them for being there when I needed them the most. We are blessed in Canada to have lawyers who ensure justice exists for all.

“Legal Aid is central to righting wrongs and rectifying injustice.” Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London Carolyn Ruda Cornwall

Recycling in Cornwall Dear Editor, Love your article. I am a great believer in recycling.

We winter in Florida and where we winter, everything goes in the garbage. We are ecstatic when we get home and 90% of our garbage goes to recycling. That being said, not wanting to show my age but I remember when groceries were packed in paper bags, pop and beer could only be purchased in glass bottles and water fountains were available everywhere. What happened to those days? Too many people don’t care - we have become a disposable society. Everything is one time

use and goes in the landfills. I make a point of, if I buy a plastic bottle of pop, once empty, to leave it in my car or carry it in my purse, until I get home, so I can put it in our recycle bin instead of just throwing it in the garbage.

Actually, I should be buying a glass bottle of pop instead of a plastic bottle of pop but corner stores no longer take back the glass bottles (like in the old days). What the city of Cornwall is planning on doing, even though it is a pilot project, I think is excellent.

2 pairs $149

for adults, 20 cents for students and seniors and 15 cents for children. It was the first fare increase in eight years. ...

The city settled with 70 public works employees. The two-year contract gave the CUPE members 17% in the first year and 12 per cent in the second year. ... A St. Andrew’s man convicted of robbing a convenience store at Montreal Road and Lefebvre Avenue at knife-point was given a three-year prison sentence.

SPORTS STUFF There are not many television shows (now that All In The Family is off the air) I make a point of watching, but supper-time Prime Time Sports with host Bob McCowan was one. Prime Time Sports soldiers on this week but without its star attraction.

McCowan announced last week that he was leaving the show after 31 years in talk radio. He signed off Friday. There is speculation that the American-born McCowan and his bosses at the top of Rogers’ chain of command were not getting along. Expect the ratings to take a hit. ... How bad is Toronto Blue Jays’ pitcher Edwin Jackson? Of Jackson, one Toronto columnist deadpanned that he pitches batting practice every fifth day, starting at 7:05 p.m. And when manager Charlie Montoyo was asked why he started Jackson, he answered, “He’s all I’ve got.” ... The day before the team’s home opener on Saturday, the Toronto Argos’ public relations department pumped out a release that told fans the CFL club “is one of the best values in the city - and great football, too.” So what did they do: Ti-Cats 64 Argos 14. ... Hey, who started this thing about somebody’s kid joining the gang on the NHL draft stage?

THIS AND THAT In 1964 a young, mouthy boxer called Cassius Clay was the new world heavyweight champion, the National Hockey League had six teams and Stan Mikita was the scoring champion, our current prime minister’s mother was a teen-ager, years away from marrying Pierre, and in England there was a new rock band called the Rolling

Stones. Hard to believe, but the agedefying band is still going strong. The Stones kicked off a 17-date tour in Chicago on the weekend (60,000 fans at Soldiers Field) just three months after lead singer Mick Jagger had heart surgery. He’s 75 (turns 76 next month).

Keith Richards is 75, drummer Charlie Watts is 78. At 72, Ronnie Wood is the youngster. Ah,. chalk it up to good, clean living. ... The latest sexual assault allegation against President Donald Trump has moved him past Bill Clinton in that category. ... Can’t they pass a law to keep money-grabbing TV evangelists off the air? ... Just a thought, but do fortune tellers charge HST? ... Can’t figure why the government slaps a tax on necessities such as the cost of heating a home but gives lottery/gambling winnings a free pass.

TRIVIA Cornwall lawyer Lucien Lamoureux was elected MP for Stormont in 1962 and became the first permanent Speaker of the House of Commons.

Where was he born: 1) Gatineau, 2) Montreal, 3) Ottawa, 4) Quebec City, 5) Lachine.

TRIVIA ANSWER Rene Levesque, then natural resources minister in the Quebec Liberal government, was guest speaker at La Semaine Francaise banquet on June 16, 1962. He told his audience that he came to the banquet not as a politician but a French Canadian who wanted to protect French Canadian traditions. He said equality between French and English was the only way to make Confederation work. He warned that without this, separatists would gain a louder voice in the province. Levesque was born in New Brunswick because the nearby Quebec town where his parents lived did not have a hospital.

Today, it is the Children’s Aid Society head quarters. Before that it was home to an upstart evangelical congregation that eventually closed up shop. And before that it was a night club that once featured a male stripper act called Tarzan gyrating to rock music in the future house of worship.

What it never became was a crown jewel on Cornwall’s accommodation landscape, an enterprise that one alderman hyped during the summer of 1975 re-zoning debate as “one of the greatest” business investments in the city’s history.

An appointed member of the planning board, with a strong connection to the business community, called the idea of building a hotel on Boundary Road, far from the beaten tourist path, a “good move.”

The lone dissenting voice around the city council table and the planning board, both of whom voted for the re-zoning change, was Ald. Dick Aubry who called the re-zoning approval the “worst decision ever.”

He wondered why council was rushing to change the zoning when it had other prospects in the queue.

The St. Lawrence College professor, with a strong private business background, found it strange that the deveoper and city businessman, who was the key investor, had put the cart before the horse: an application for re-zoning before a feasibility study.

Aubry also shared the Chamber of Commerce’s concern that giving a green light for the out-of-the-way hotel would chase away at least two developers who expressed interest in building a hotel in the downtown core.

The proposed sites would be next the the civic complex and the former Capitol

“We shouldn’t be putting our arms around the first (hotel) developer and hug and kiss him,” cautioned Aubry.

In the end, the Boundary Road hotel never got past Tarzan and the night club stage and the closest the city came to a downtown hotel was a year’s worth of piling driving at the old Capitol site.

ALSO THIS WEEK IN 1975 Administration’s recommendation that on-street parking be banned on Second Street between Brookdale Avenue and Marlborough Street was rejected by city council. Ald. Angelo Lebano told administration that it was easy for them to make such a recommendation because “You don’t have to run for re-election.”

But council did approve the adoption of a one-way street system. ... StormontDundas-Glengarry secondary school teachers were given a $1,000 cost-ofliving allowance to help deal with inflation. ... United Counties council supported a resolution that called for the province to force welfare recipients to work for their cheques. Adrian Gadbois, reeve of Charlottenburgh Township, said such a rule was overdue. ... After rejecting a 10% pay increase offer, the 19 unionized employees of Iroquois Chemicals went on strike. ... One of the city’s oldest homes at Lawrence Avenue and Montreal Road, once owned by the Loney family which operated a hardware store on Montreal Road, was torn down.

It had been damaged by fire. ... City family physician Dr. H. E. D. Bateman was given the Glenn Sawyer Service Award for his dedication to patients. ...

At the University of Ottawa Cornwall Campus awards night, Bonnie Bough and Frances Hart earned the award for high average for first-year students.

Franklin Roy received the award for highest average for second and third-year students. ... Sister Audry Mantle, administrator of Macdonell Memorial Hospital, left for a government position after four years at the hospital. ... City transit fares were increased to 25 cents

4. Insulin. This hormone was discovered in 1922 by Canadians Frederick Banting and Charles H. Best.

They found that insulin lowered a diabetic dog’s blood glucose to normal levels. Within a year, they invented a way to purify insulin, and used it to successfully treat a boy suffering from severe diabetes.

1. Peanut butter. Originally invented as a source of protein and calories for people with no teeth, peanut butter was first patented in 1884 by a Montreal pharmacist.

2. Snowblower. You can thank Montreal’s Arthur Sicard the next time you clear your driveway with a snowblower. He was inspired by agricultural equipment when he invented this back-saving alternative to shovelling.

3. Instant replay. In 1955, Hockey Night in Canada changed forever when a CBC producer used a kinescope to replay parts of an NHL game a few minutes after they occurred.

5. Garbage bags. They may not be glamorous, but it’s hard to imagine a time before plastic disposable bags were readily available. They’ve come a long way since their invention in

1950. Garbage bags have become more environmentally friendly over the years, with recyclable and biodegradable versions now widely available.

6. The Caesar. Invented in Calgary in 1969, the Caesar has been a staple of the Canadian brunch scene ever since. This savoury mix of clam juice, tomato juice and vodka can be garnished with a stalk of celery, a pickled bean or a wedge of lime and is served over 350 million times a year.

The next time you enjoy a PB&J, watch a replay of a great hockey play or take your garbage to the curb, know that you have a fellow Canadian to thank for it.

Célébrons les 60 ans de la voie maritime du Saint-Laurent Shawna O’Neill, traduire par Nick Seebruch shawna.oneill@tc.tc

LONG SAULT (ONTARIO) - Une centaine de membres de la communauté se sont réunis à Sunset Cove. Une retraite en souvenir de l’historique voie maritime du la Fleuve SaintLaurent, inaugurée il y a 60 ans le 27 juin 1959.

Pour 10 $, les participants ont pu savourer du thé et des produits de boulangerie. Le thème de cette année était la reine Elizabeth, honorant sa visite dans la région. « Je pense que c’est formidable que certaines des femmes portent même (des fascinantes) aujourd’hui, » a déclaré volontaire Tammy Jodoin. « Cette année, nous avons célébré la visite de Sa Majesté en 1959 et nous en avons organisé la présentation. Le 27 juin prochain, ce sera 60 ans depuis sa visite à Cornwall, Long Sault, Morrisburg, Ingleside, Iroquois et Brockville pour l’ouverture de la voie maritime, » a raconté

Jim Brownell, président de la Lost Villages Historical Society. « Cela donne aux gens l’occasion de se réunir, de célébrer et de se souvenir des communautés que nous avons perdues et de celles que nous avons. » Brownell a souligné combien il est important de transmettre l’histoire à travers les générations pour s’assurer que les habitants se souviendront toujours des événements qui changent la vie de la Seaway. Il a remercié tous les résidents, la direction et le propriétaire de Sunset Cove d’avoir ouvert leurs portes à la Société et de leur avoir permis d’utiliser une salle en bas de l’édifice. « C’est un bénévolat; Les volontaires l’ont organisé et ont servi ici aujourd’hui… nous ne pourrions pas survivre sans volontaires », a déclaré Brownell.

L’événement de cette année a également organisé un tirage au sort permettant aux participants de gagner des prix.

Les Communautés dynamiques Communiqué de presse du CDS CORNWALL, Ontario - Les Communautés dynamiques (CD) vous invitent à participer à sa Journée Groupes de discussion le mercredi 10 juillet au Complexe civique de Cornwall. Les CD, qui sont à préparer un plan sur la Sécurité et le Bien-être pour l’ensemble de SDG, Cornwall et Akwesasne, ont besoin de votre aide. Elles lanceront une campagne d’engagement public dans le but de développer le plan cet été et à l’automne. Pour que l’engagement public soit efficace, la campagne débute par un jour de discussion où des groupes se pencheront sur quatre priorités : la santé mentale, les services de santé, la pauvreté et la sécurité communautaire.

Prenez part à cette importante journée qui aidera à définir le plan et à façonner le futur de nos communautés.

L’événement débute à 9h30 par une brève introduction à la journée. Les deux premiers groupes de discussion aborderont la santé mentale et la pauvreté entre 10h et 12h (midi). Les participants peuvent choisir l’un ou l’autre des

thèmes. Nous nous assurerons que tous les participants aient la chance de contribuer leurs commentaires pour toutes les priorités, incluant dans les groupes de discussions auxquels ils ne pourront pas assister. Le dîner sera servi à midi.

Les Communauté dynamiques sont une initiative d’impact communautaire dirigée par le Conseil de développement social de Cornwall et de la région. Au début de 2018, le CDS a approché une centaine de décideurs politiques, travailleurs de la santé, professionnels du secteur sans but lucratif, propriétaires d’entreprises, personnes ayant un certain vécu et plusieurs autres venant d’un bout à l’autre de SDG, Akwesasne et Cornwall. Le groupe tente d’évaluer les risques et d’identifier les plus grands enjeux qui guettent notre communauté. Il passera ensuite à l’action en groupe afin d’aborder les plus importants enjeux sociétaux en ciblant particulièrement la prévention. Les quatre piliers sur laquelle s’est arrêtée la communauté sont la santé mentale, les services de santé, la pauvreté et la sécurité communautaire.

Le plan de sécurité et de bien-être dans les co l l e c t i v i té s : Le 1er j a nv i e r 2019, le gouvernement de l’Ontario a chargé les municipalités (palier unique et palier supérieur)

de préparer et adopter un Plan de sécurité et de bien-être dans les collectivités (PSBC). Dans le cadre de ces changements législatifs, les municipalités sont tenues de travailler en partenariat avec les services de police, de santé et santé mentale, d’enseignement, de services communautaires et sociaux, et à l’enfance et à la jeunesse pour aborder le processus de planification.

Le but de ce plan est d’atteindre la situation idéale d’une communauté viable au sein de laquelle chacun et chacune est en sécurité, sent qu’il ou elle y a sa place et peut avoir accès aux services dont ils ont besoin, et là où les particuliers et les familles peuvent combler leurs besoins notamment en éducation, soins de santé, alimentation, logement, revenu et expression sociale et culturelle. Ensemble ils forment des Communautés vibrantes : un plan sur la sécurité et le bien-être.

CAISSE DESJARDINS ONTARIO CREDIT UNION

À la suite du regroupement des 11 caisses populaires Desjardins de l’Ontario et de la Fédération des caisses populaires de l’Ontario (FCPO), les administrateurs du comité transitoire de la future Caisse Desjardins Ontario sont heureux d’annoncer la nomination de M. Billy Boucher à titre de directeur général et chef des opérations. Il est entré en fonction le 17 juin 2019.

Following the merger of the 11 Ontario Desjardins caisses populaires with the Fédération des caisses populaires de l’Ontario (FCPO), the directors sitting on the transition committee of the future Desjardins Ontario Credit Union are pleased to announce the appointment of Billy Boucher as general manager and chief operating officer. He began in his new role on June 17, 2019.

Billy Boucher, MBA

Titulaire d’une maîtrise en administration des affaires de l’Université de Moncton, M. Boucher possède plus de 20 ans d’expérience comme cadre dans le milieu financier, et maîtrise les deux langues officielles. Il a notamment été vice-président régional à la DUCA Financial Services Credit Union dans la région du Grand Toronto, après avoir travaillé au sein de grandes banques canadiennes dans les provinces de l’Atlantique, dans les Prairies et en Ontario.

Mr. Boucher holds an MBA from the Université de Moncton and has over 20 years’ experience as an executive in the financial industry. He is also fluent in both official languages. After holding positions with major Canadian banks in the Maritimes, the Prairies and Ontario, he most recently served as regional vice-president for DUCA Financial Services Credit Union in the Greater Toronto Area.

« Je suis ravi de joindre la grande équipe de la nouvelle Caisse Desjardins Ontario. Pour moi, il est essentiel de continuer à développer notre relation de proximité avec nos membres et nos collectivités, pour favoriser la croissance de la Caisse et faire vivre sa mission socioéconomique. »

M. Boucher est profondément habité par les valeurs coopératives, et son approche orientée vers les membres et clients, conjuguée à son expérience de leader d’équipes réparties sur de vastes territoires, s’avèrent des atouts majeurs pour la nouvelle Caisse.

La nouvelle Caisse Desjardins Ontario verra le jour le 1er janvier 2020. Son volume d’affaires dépassera 14,2 G$ et elle servira 130 000 membres dans 50 centres de services. Cette nouvelle institution d’envergure comptera sur une grande équipe de plus de 650 employés ainsi que sur un conseil d’administration composé de 17 personnes, appuyé par différents comités de liaison sur le territoire.

Elle participera activement au développement des collectivités où elle est présente, notamment par son programme de dons et de commandites et par son Fonds d’aide au développement du milieu.

Mr. Boucher is deeply committed to cooperative values, and his focus on members and clients, together with his experience managing teams over wide geographic areas, are major assets for the new credit union.

The new Desjardins Ontario Credit Union will officially open January 1, 2020. It will manage over $14.2 billion in assets, serve 130,000 members at 50 branches, and have 650 employees and a 17-member board of directors, supported by liaison committees across Ontario. Through its donation and sponsorship program, Community Development Fund and other initiatives, it will be actively involved in the communities it serves.

Directeur général et chef des opérations General manager and chief operating officer

“I’m thrilled to be joining the great team at the new Desjardins Ontario Credit Union. I believe that it’s essential to continue developing close relationships with our members and communities, to help the credit union grow and realize its socioeconomic mission.”

Félicitations à tous les finissants et finissantes de l’année 2019 Mots des finissants de L’Héritage Bonsoir et bienvenue, chers diplômés, familles, amis, membres du personnel et invités spéciaux.

C’est avec honneur que nous sommes ici parmi vous ce soir pour contribuer un dernier mot de la part de la classe des finissants 2018-2019 afin de clore notre merveilleux parcours ici à L’Héritage. Je me présente, Patrick Mondoux et Zachary Meunier.

Nous allons partager avec vous les expériences que nous avons vécues, non seulement en tant qu’élèves, mais aussi en tant que Dragons. Ces dernières années seront bien gravées dans nos mémoires. Pour certains d’entre nous, notre séjour ensemble a débuté en septième année.

Cependant, nous sommes quelques-uns qui se connaissent depuis le primaire à Rose des Vents, ou même Horizon Jeunesse, comme pour Zachary et moi.

Les adieux de la 6e année à Rose des Vents sont toujours fraîchement ancrés dans mon cerveau.

C’était un temps difficile, une famille d’étudiants qui se séparait en différentes écoles secondaires.

Cependant, L’Héritage nous a accueillis chaleureusement, et avec les élèves de Sainte Lucie, parmi d’autres, notre nouvelle famille s’est rapidement formée. Ensemble, nous avons fait la transition imposante à la vie secondaire.

Nous avons vécu plusieurs bons souvenirs ici au cours des 6 dernières années. Loin dans ma mémoire me semble les voyages de Franco volleyball à Hamilton en 7e et à Ottawa en 8e année.

Je me souviens des sorties de Mme Crawford, pendant lesquels on passait le matin à un spectacle puis l’après-midi au centre Rideau, ou à Pointe-Claire, pour du «shopping éducatif». Aussi, ces nombreuses activités dans le cadre de l’éducation portant sur les Premières nations, Métis et Inuits comme le tournage pour la série Le nouveau monde de Champlain.

J’ai bien aimé les sorties de hockey pendant l’année en 11e et 12e, culminant dans le tournoi franco à Ottawa. Beaucoup d’effort par une petite équipe. J’ai apprécié l’enthousiasme de M. Parthenais, à chaque minute du match.

Commence la 12e année, finalement un temps pour une période d’études. Cependant, j’ai rapidement appris que cela n’est pas un nom approprié.

On devrait probablement la renommer «période dans laquelle tu essaies de faire du travail productif mais Ethan te sors dehors par force pour aller conduire et chercher un dîner à un restaurant même si tu as déjà apporté un dîner et que tu dépenses plus d’argent que tu as dans ton compte

de banque et maintenant tu dois apporter ton dîner à la maison, sans avoir fait rien de productif lors de cette période ‘d’études’».

Le bal des finissants, un bon temps pour tous.

J’aimerais remercier le comité du bal, Nicholas, Zoe et Victoria, pour avoir consacré beaucoup de temps et effort dans la planification et l’exécution de cette soirée à ne pas oublier.

Nous aimerions maintenant remercier toutes les personnes qui nous ont supportés à travers nos années ici à L’Héritage. Vous avez félicité nos succès, amorties nos chutes et encouragé notre croissance au cours de cette période importante dans nos vies. Vous avez étés primordial dans toutes nos réussites: passés, présent et futurs.

On aimerait commencer par remercier nos familles, les soeurs, frères, parents, grandsparents et autres qui nous ont appuyés ces dernières années. Merci pour l’aide avec les devoirs, les projets et les choix de cours. Vous nous avez débarqués aux premières heures du matin et vous nous avez ramassés tard le soir pendant les nombreuses excursions scolaires. Vous qui nous ennuyez avec toutes vos questions, «Comment était ta journée?», «Qu’as-tu appris?», «As-tu fait quelque chose de spécial aujourd’hui?».

Célébrez votre diplômé pour cette occasion mémorable

Auxquelles on répondait toujours, « pas grandchose ». Même si toutes vos questions nous embêtaient, vous étiez les gens qui étaient toujours là pour nous donner un coup de main lorsqu’on en avait de besoin. Votre support a été essentiel à notre succès.

Pour continuer, notre éducation ne serait pas possible sans l’appui des enseignants. Les nombreuses explications, les heures après les classes, l’incroyable patience que vous nous avez démontré, ne seront pas oubliés. Cependant, votre appui ne s’arrêtait pas à notre éducation secondaire. Vous nous avez soutenus et appuyés dans nos décisions pour le postsecondaire. Vous avez ouverts nos esprits à de nouvelles idées, et vous nous avez encouragés dans tous nos efforts.

Nous avons partagé beaucoup de bons souvenirs ensemble, à l’intérieur et à l’extérieur des classes.

Je crois que ce qui caractérise un bon prof n’est pas leur habileté à enseigner la matière, mais plutôt leur intérêt dans le bien-être des étudiants. Ici à L’Héritage, vous tenez toujours cela bien à coeur.

Les présents et futurs élèves de L’Héritage sont choyés de vous avoir comme profs.

16 - Le mercredi 26 juin, 2019

Chers parents, amis, enseignants, enseignantes, membres de la direction, invités d’honneur, membres de famille qui sont ici juste pour le fun, et la gang des finissants, finissantes 2019. Bonsoir ! Oh ! J’aimerais juste dire bonjour à ma mère, Alice. Regarde, mum, je suis sur l’estrade ! C’est avec une immense fierté que nous vous adressons la parole ce soir au nom des Patriotes finissants.

Nous ne pouvons pas croire que nous sommes en train de vous parler ici aujourd’hui. Nous avions l’impression que juste un ou deux ans passés, nous étions presque tous arrivés au Pavillon pour la première fois avec les yeux grands ouverts, sans s’attendre aux trésors qu’étaient les classes de Monsieur Naz, ni les billets bleus de retard.

Malgré tout, nous y sommes arrivés.

Donc nous pensions commencer par prendre les présences, comme nos enseignants l’ont fait tous les jours. Estce qu’Alexa est dans la salle ? Si vous voulez la trouver, faites juste écouter pour le bruit de dauphin. Alexa, aimerais-tu nous donner une démonstration ?

Et Kaylee Martin ? Attendez, sa mère l’appelle.

Nolan Pitts est-il ici ? Ah oui, son autobus est en retard.

Emma est-elle ici ? Ah oui elle est ici : j’ai entendu quelqu’un dire «disrespect women». Pis Yan, si tu es ici, peux-tu nous faire notre pose préférée ?

Environ un mois passé, quand nous avons su que nous aurions l’honneur de donner le discours d’adieu, on nous a dit comment sérieux était la tâche et on nous a fait comprendre l’importance de ce discours.

Naturellement, nous avons décidé de nous y appliquer avec la même intensité que nous tous lors de nos PRA et IS. C’est donc en grande panique que nous avons commencé à l’écrire hier soir.

En toute honnêteté, le fait que nous sommes ici aujourd’hui est la preuve du fait que nous savons tous comment utiliser Sparknotes, BonPatron et notre meilleur ami, Wikipedia. En fait, nous devions faire attention d’éviter le plagiat.

Même dans ce discours, il est possible que nous ayons volé quelques blagues d’Internet sans citer nos sources…

Comme certains de nos collègues qui auraient plagié les travaux des autres...

Passons aux choses plus sérieuses. Il faudra tout d’abord remercier les nombreuses personnes qui ont rendu cette occasion possible. Premièrement, nos enseignants, nos directeurs et directeurs adjoints, les membres du personnel et Khan Academy, sans vous, nous ne serions pas ici aujourd’hui, aussi sages que nous le sommes, avec autant de maturité que nous en avons. Votre dévouement à notre apprentissage porte finalement fruit.

Nous aimerions aussi souligner les enseignants qui terminent en beauté leur temps à La Citadelle en prenant leur retraite. Mme McCabe et Mme Leroux-Roy, merci pour toutes vos années de dévouement à notre forteresse et votre dévouement auprès des élèves. Bon succès et bonne retraite !

En fait, chaque enseignant laisse ses marques sur La Citadelle. Nous ne pouvons pas oublier M. Touzin et ses fameuses lignes telles que « comme live là là », « oui je suis le maître » et, bien sûr, « cassé ».

Et Mme Piché, t’as l’air skinny. Puis M. Baz « Si tu ne sais quoi faire, dérive ».

De plus, nous aimerions remercier nos parents de nous avoir guidé à travers nos études, d’avoir lu autant de dissertations et d’essays, de nous avoir conduit à l’école chaque matin, et oui, Alice, d’être allée à chaque rencontre de parents-enseignants, même si je t’ai dit que tu n’avais pas besoin d’y aller. Vraiment, nos parents méritent une main d’applaudissement pour leurs efforts…

Nous avons passé à travers notre part de défis et nous n’oublierons jamais notre temps ensemble. Nous avons eu des victoires et des moments difficiles. Après tout, nous sommes un groupe très proche.

En fait, il faut que nous nous souvenons de notre chère amie Alaya, qui est avec nous tous aujourd’hui et qui célèbre avec nous. Nous ne l’oublierons jamais.

Nous avons ri à plusieurs occasions au cours des

Discours d’adieu des finissants

années, et nous ne pouvons pas donner ce discours sans en nommer quelques-unes.

Par exemple, nous avons des vis dans les fenêtres dans chaque classe à cause de Matt Genier qui est monté sur le toit par la fenêtre.

Au beau milieu d’un cours de maths. Et je suis certaine que Jacques Bourdon ne va jamais ressayer de drifter son MoPed dans le stationnement de l’école.

Brandon Lalonde, je vais toujours me souvenir de ton échappée dans la joute de soccer en onzième, la manière dont tu as planté ton visage dans la boue était vraiment impressionnante.

Isaac, les Post-its, tu les as-tu tous enlevés de ton char ?

Et finalement, où serions-nous sans toutes ces journées d’intempérie ? Le consortium de transport scolaire de l’Est est responsable d’avoir apporté la joie dans le coeur de tous les petits étudiants et étudiantes : merci encore !

Nous terminons un chapitre de notre vie, mais lorsqu’un chapitre se termine, un autre commence.

Je suis certaine que nous irons tous faire de grandes choses dans ce monde. Ce sont les leçons de vie, l’éthique de travail et les valeurs que nos enseignants et nos parents nous ont inculquées qui nous aideront à réussir dans les chapitres à venir. Nous partirons tous avec des souvenirs inoubliables. Étant donné que nous avons plusieurs leçons à prendre avec nous après le secondaire, nous pensions les compiler en une liste, donc prenez des notes.

1- Regardez autour de vous. Ce sont vos plus proches qui vous aideront quand vous en aurez de besoin. Ne perdez pas de vue ceux qui vous ont formés : ce sont eux qui vous aideront à continuer à travers de vos épreuves. Une des beautés de notre cohorte est que nous formons un groupe relativement petit, et nous avons des liens proches entre nous.

Le montant de fois que nous avons utilisé un groupchat à minuit pour demander si quelqu’un avait les notes, est une preuve du fait qu’ensemble, nous sommes meilleurs. Les connections entre nous se sont solidifiées pour former un groupe résilient, intelligent, dévoué et drôle. Ce n’est donc pas surprenant que pendant les moments difficiles, notre meilleur plan sera toujours de trouver quelqu’un pour nous dire : « calme-toi, mange une banane ».

2-Comme nous l’avons toujours appris dans les longues discussions avec M. Doyon, il faut toujours parler français ; sinon, comme M. Massé nous le répétait souvent, nous allons finir en prison.

3- Inspirons-nous des mots de Cecil Beaton, un artiste renommé du XXe siècle : « Soyez audacieux, soyez différents, mettez de côté votre esprit pratique ; soyez pleins d’imagination, et soyez contraires à ceux qui ne prennent aucun risque, aux esclaves de l’ordinaire ». Nous sommes rendus à un moment de notre vie où les décisions sont importantes. Nous devons tous décider qui nous voulons être et quel impact nous voulons avoir sur ce monde. En 2019, il y aura environ 470 000 finissants du secondaire au Canada. Ici, à La Citadelle, nous sommes un peu plus de 90. La question à laquelle nous faisons face est donc : Allons-nous être de ceux qui ont un impact sur l’avenir ? Cela est laissé à vous de choisir d’être audacieux, d’être courageux, d’aller plus loin que l’ordinaire. Comme Matt Genier nous dirait : « Let’s gooooo! » 4- Ajoutez sur Instagram @simonlabonte pour faire un ami.

5-Avant tout, rappelez-vous toujours que le chameau ne voit pas sa propre bosse, il voit la bosse de son frère.

Merci beaucoup à vous tous, ces années ont été tout un plaisir.

De la part de la radio scolaire, je vous souhaite une belle et bonne vie. Patriotes un jour, Patriotes toujours.

Les classes de français avec Mme Bernier, autant un cours de philo qu’un cours de littératie ! Nous avons lus des livres intéressants, de contenu questionnable, sans doute, mais de toute façon captivants. Les modes de la connaissance nous seront ancrés à tout jamais dans la mémoire.

Véritablement, même si souvent on ne voulait pas écrire la 100e réflexion ou la 40 000e analyse de phrase, on a vite réalisé que ce petit sacrifice de temps payera bien dans nos compétences réflectives et littéraires.

Aussi, il ne faut pas oublier les rencontres hebdomadaires du mentorat IB. Quelle bonne opportunité de manquer son cours, détendre pour une demie heure et manger de la bouffe - euhm, je veux dire, apprendre des stratégies de travail et de gestion du stress !

M. Parthenais, tant de tangentes on se serait cru dans une classe de maths! Mais non, on n’était pas dans le cours de maths mais dans le cours de kinésiologie. Quel cours intéressant. Aussi, M. Parthenais comprenait que nous avons tous des emplois ou deux à temps partiel, des sports et autres engagements et donc il nous faisait voter sur une date de remise de projet qui nous convenait, dans une période de temps prédéterminé évidemment.

M. Rozon, ton enthousiasme et ton amour pour les sports sont hors pairs. Tes voyages de canot camping au parc Charleston seront toujours de mes meilleurs souvenirs du secondaire: le feu de camp, cuire ses propres repas et sauter dans l’eau de la falaise près de notre camp. Aussi, j’ai été choyé de t’avoir eu en tant qu’enseignant et en tant qu’entraineur. Tu nous donnais toujours ton 100% et tu nous en demandais autant.

C’est cela qui t’a rendu un coach exceptionnel.

Les voyages d’athlétisme en équipe et les matchs de volleyball finissaient presque toujours par un arrêt au A&W ou au Tims et évidemment il y avait du rap français.

Les cours d’English avec Mme Baillie: en rentrant, on avait toujours un jeu de mots qui nous attendait affiché sur le tableau. Votre amour pour Shakespeare, Hemingway et Khaled Hosseini sont sans égal et parfois un peu inquiétant. Je parle pour le groupe au complet en disant qu’on adorait venir dans votre classe d’English. La seule chose qui manquait de votre classe était un jeu de 7 Up. Les classes de biologie avec Mme Ménard, les Quizlet, les Kahoot, les Mindomo et tous les autres sites web et applications que vous nous avez présentés au cours des dernières années nous ont forcés à sortir de notre zone de confort et pour cela on vous remercie. Vous avez toujours voulu plaire à notre groupe afin que tout le monde aime au moins une partie de votre cours. Que ce soit avec des laboratoires, des expériences ou même des vidéos, vous nous avez donné toutes les ressources nécessaires à notre succès.

Il ne faut pas oublier de remercier BioNinja.

Quel excellent outil de révision à minuit avant un test de biologie !

Merci beaucoup à Mme Lalancette pour ses efforts de planification et d’organisation de tous les courriels concernant plusieurs différentes choses que ce soit au sujet d’application à l’université ou au collège ou au sujet de bourse.

Aussi il ne faut pas oublier les voyages hors pays que vous nous avez préparé et à M. Trottier de nous avoir accompagné. J’ai eu la chance de participer à deux de ces voyages sur deux différents

continents: l’Asie et l’Europe. Je vais toujours me rappeler des merveilleux paysages, l’architecture et les marchés ouvert de la Chine. Et des gondoles à Venise, les pâtes, et les alpes et même le camp de concentration que nous avons visité en Europe. Pour ceci, je vais toujours être choyé d’avoir eu la chance de voyager le monde en tant que Dragon.

Les maths, la chimie et les physiques... qui d’autre que M. Trottier? Tous ces cours étaient toujours intéressants que ce soit des laboratoires de chimie, des expériences de physique où on devait calculer la trajectoire d’un projectile ou des mises en situation de James Bond. Il savait toujours comment capter l’attention de la majorité de la classe et d’aller chercher ceux qui s’intéressent moins à la matière.

Finalement, j’ai eu le plaisir d’assister au cours de physique de Mme Thouny. Même en gérant deux classes, elle créait du temps pour tout le monde. J’ai apprécié le laboratoire dans lequel on calculait si on pouvait faire tomber le téléphone à Steven dans un récipient d’eau.

Il ne faut pas oublier non plus nos enseignants de l’intermédiaire, période qui semble maintenant lointain dans nos esprits. Que ce soit Mme Dominique, M. Caissie, M. Papa Lo Sy, M. Roger, Mme Crawford, et plusieurs autres, vous nous avons supportés lors de notre transition au secondaire.

Cette année j’ai eu l’honneur d’être le premier ministre de notre gouvernement des élèves.

J’espère que j’ai bien représenté notre école et je regrette de ne pas m’être impliqué davantage auparavant. Merci Mme Stéphanie et M. Erik de l’appui avec les responsabilités de premier ministre et de l’organisation de nos nombreuse activ-

ités et levé de fond toute au long de l’année.

Un merci à notre merveilleuse équipe de concierges pour leur effort soutenu à garder notre belle école propre et sanitaire même si les ados ne sont pas les personnes les plus propres.

Le secrétariat, de la 7ème à la douzième ça l’a toujours été Mme Karen et Mme Patricia qui étaient là pour leur demander de la glace, des pansements, leur dire un petit bonjour ou pour écrire des billets de retard pour Dawson.

M. Hurtubise et Mme Hunt, de la part de la classe des finissants on vous remercie pour l’effort soutenu qui nous a permis d’avoir une belle école avec plusieurs activités et un gros merci de la part de tous les finissants pour notre belle salle dédiée aux 12èmes de l’école.

Finalement, il faut remercier vous, nous, les élèves. Notre gang de 12e est une famille proche.

Même si nous avons tous nos différences, et nos conflits ici et là, on s’est supporté et fait de l’école un endroit amusant et social. Il y en a d’entre nous qui se connaissent depuis très longtemps, et certains depuis seulement quelques années. Les souvenirs que j’ai partagés avec vous seront avec moi pour toujours. Je suis très reconnaissant de votre présence dans ma vie. J’ai hâte à un été agréable avec vous.

On vous souhaite tous du succès dans vos vies, et du courage pendant que vous réalisez votre plein potentiel.

Pour conclure, nous aimerions terminer avec ces derniers mots déclarés par Nelson Mandela il y a plusieurs années : “L’éducation est l’arme la plus puissante que l’on ait à disposition pour changer le monde”. Sur ce, Dragons, changez le monde.

Dragons un jour, Dragon toujours!

élicitations F

Nous sommes très fiers de nos finissantes et finissants.

Nous vous souhaitons bon succès dans vos projets futurs.

Desjardins congratulates the high school graduates in the region

Lotto winnier Purple Colour Run Run Organizer Amanda Marini-Rohde and her son Byron covered in purple chalk after the run on Sunday, June 22 at the Cornwall Civic Complex in support of SASS for Women of SDG&A. Over 50 runners laced up their shoes and sprinted through purple chalk clouds. “(Events like this) help to raise awareness of our organization, just getting out there and having our name out in the public, and knowing there is a service for survivors,” said Angela Vinet, SASS Executive Director. “It’s also great for the community to come together and show our clients there is support for them. The money we raise always goes to programming and to be able to provide services our government funding doesn’t support, like our support groups, empowerment camps…” (Shawna O’Neill/Seaway News)

Jean-Louis Samson of Cornwall has won the guaranteed $1 million prize in the June 12 LOTTO 6/49 draw. “The most I’ve ever won before was $5,” shared Jean-Louis, a 77-yearold retiree. “It still hasn’t fully register in my mind.” The married father of three plans to take a trip and help his kids with his windfall. The winning ticket was purchased at Esso on Marleau Avenue in Cornwall.

A Priest And A tAxi driver Arrive At the PeArly GAtes

St. Peter welcomes them and shows them to their homes. For the taxi driver, a beautiful villa looking over a gorgeous field of clouds.

“Thank you,” the ecstatic taxi driver said.

Anticipating an even bigger mansion, the priest was dismayed when they arrived at a small 1-bedroom apartment.

“St. Peter, I’m a little puzzled,” the priest began.

“As a clergyman, I devoted decades of my life solely to serving the Lord. How come the taxi driver got a villa, and for me, only a small apartment?”

St. Peter smiled. “Up here, we go by results. While you preached, people slept; while he drove, people prayed.”

tunity to win prizes for their generosity.

“It has been going on for several years now… we are going to raise a lot of money for Special Olympics (this year),” said Det. Cst. Dupuis triumphantly.

Det. Cst. Dupuis explained that riders would be taking the back roads together in a ride of comradery, making a stop in Cardinal, and meeting up with Ottawa and Kingston riders and in Prescott for a charity BBQ. “If you ever went to one of the (Special Olympics) games and saw these athletes compete its just unbelievable. They’re not supported by any government grants or anything so we have to support them. By running events like this, it’s raising extra funds to bring (locals) to the games and put smiles on their faces,” said Det. Cst. Dupuis.

CORNWALL, Ontario – As families made their way into Cornwall’s Civic Complex to watch Canada’s Circus Spectacular on Sunday, June 22, a group of animal activists aimed to educate them about how circus shows may exploit animals, which isn’t so ‘spectacular’.

“There’s no reason to have circuses with animals,” said Michele Thorn, member of the Ottawa Animal Defence League.“There’s plenty of circuses around the world that don’t. Of course one is Cirque du Soleil, which has been wildly successful, and they’ve never used animals. You can have a great show and don’t have to exploit animals at the same time.”

Thorn said that her advocacy group has been protesting circuses, among other events, since 2008. She explained that because of activist efforts across the province, circuses that incorporate animals have become drastically less frequent. Thorn said that for example, Shrine Circus is no longer allowed to bring elephants into the country and used to host 22 shows across the province, which has now shrunk to about two.

“We saw year after year more and more protestors and fewer people going in. We absolutely

know we had an impact,” said Thorn. “We don’t believe animals should be used for entertainment in any way.”

Thorn said that she doesn’t believe the company in Cornwall currently incorporates any animals other than horses.

“People may think that’s okay because there’s no wild animals, like dolphins in other circuses, but we still think it’s exploiting these (horses) because naturally they don’t do tricks like that; it’s just pure entertainment. They’re doing it because they were trained to do that with whips…trainers (may) use whips to get them to comply,”said Thorn, who also noted that the horses are being transported from coast to coast unnecessarily, which she said is proven to cause the animals stress.

“The problem that circuses have is they never kept up with modern times…they still rely on tradition and people don’t want to see that anymore (as you can see from all the support today).

Cirque du Soleil has always been really modern and that has kept it spectacular, but this is just tired old same old,” said Thorn.

Thorn believes that social media has also played a role in people advocating against animals in circuses, as video footage has shown some animals may be whipped during performances.
