Mayor honoured by Mexican Consulate LEAMINGTON — On November 20, the Mexican Consulate in Leamington awarded Leamington Mayor Hilda MacDonald with the Ohtli Award, in recognition of her support of the Mexican seasonal workers.
HILDA MACDONALD
“Mayor Hilda MacDonald has demonstrated a remarkable and unbeatable leadership on promoting the assimilation of the Mexican nationals to the community of Leamington,” said a recent news release. “Her actions have been especially noticed in 2020 assuring the well-being of the community in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has hardly affected our agricultural workers.” The Ohtli Award is a distinction granted by the Mexican Government to individuals –regardless of their nationality, who have strived for proving assistance to Mexican citizens or have promoted their culture, traditions and well-being. This
award is granted annually and consists of a diploma, a silver medallion and a silver rosette. “Ohtli”, the name of the award, comes from the Mexican native language “Nahuatl” which means “road” or path” and embodies the idea of opening roads to others. It was granted for the first time in 1996 and it is one of the most significant ways to recognize the hard and meaningful work seeking the well-being of Mexican nationals abroad, as well as those who promote the Mexican culture around the world.

Leamington awards janitorial contract LEAMINGTON — The municipality’s new janitorial contract will go to Cheema Cleaning Services, of Caledon, Ontario, as decided at the Leamington Council meeting of November 24. Cheema came in at $241,250 for the cleaning contract, which will provide janitorial services at various locations throughout the municipality. The contract will take effect on January 1, 2021 and last until Dec. 31, 2022. Both Mayor Hilda MacDonald and Deputy Mayor Larry Verbeke spoke about a previous contract from an out-of-town firm that had to be terminated due to less-than-stellar results. Leamington’s policy is to take the lowest bid, and Cheema provided the lowest bid compared to the other six qualified bids they received. Council voted unanimously to accept the bid and enter into a contract with Cheema.
