OVER THE BACK FENCE

September is always a busy month -- the kids going back to school, prepping the outdoors for the inevitable coming winter, jamming and canning to stock up the pantry and making the most of the last few warm days of the season. This year, we can add the ongoing pandemic and a federal election to the mix.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues (argh). The provincial government has introduced their plan for vaccine “certificates” and the restrictions that go along with that. I’ve stated my opinion before about getting the vaccine, so I don’t need to flog that horse. We are working through the fourth wave, thanks to the Delta variant. Fingers crossed the increase in cases provincially and locally will not lead to another lockdown or more restrictions. We don’t need to take two steps back! Heading into winter, which is isolating enough, we need to be able to get out and socialize with friends and family!

As for the federal election, all I have

to say is “please exercise your right and vote.” If you don’t vote, you can’t complain!

This year also marks the 20th anniversary of the September 11 attacks on the U.S. We all remember where we were and millions watched the horror unfold on television. Almost 3,000 people were killed when terrorists took over aircraft over American soil and crashed them in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania. We need to take a moment of silence sometime on September 11 to remember them.

The 41st Annual Terry Fox Run takes place virtually on Sunday, September 19. In all the noise of other things going on in our world, we cannot forget the legacy of this incredible young man, and how he brought us together as a nation. The fight against cancer continues and even if your life hasn’t been touched in some way directly by the disease, I’m sure you can understand the devastating impact it can have on the lives of others.

Please take a few minutes to visit www. terryfox.org to find out how you can participate and/or donate.

As always, stay safe out there, folks.

And please, be kind. editor@thepromoter.ca

In addition to temporary discolouration, pressure fluctuations during the flushing process may be experienced. These fluctuations will stop once flushing is completed.

ENBRIDGE EXPANSION PROJECT

Submitted by Emily Hartwig

Enbridge Gas Inc. is proposing to construct the Bobcaygeon Community Expansion Project to supply the community with affordable natural gas (the Project). The Project is located in the City of Kawartha Lakes and Township of Cavan-Monaghan and would consist of up to approximately 50 kilometers (km) of a combination of 6- and 8-inch steel and plastic natural gas pipeline.

The proposed Project is divided into two components: the Supply Lateral, and the Reinforcement, each of which have two (2) routes being considered.

For the Supply Lateral, both routes will start near Cowan’s Drive and Peace Road and end near the intersection of Highway 36 and Duke Street, crossing the Little Bob and Big Bob Channel. An alternate route is being considered which has a minor deviation east along Traceys Hill Road, north on Eagle Road, east on St. Lukes Road and north on Cork Road to Pigeon Lake Road. For the Reinforcement, both route options require the reinforcement portion which starts near the intersection of Marina St. and Peace Road, travels east on Peace Road and south on Emily Park Road to Stewarts Line where it will end. An additional reinforcement pipeline is required on Highway 35 between Bethany Hills Road and Mt Horeb Rd, with an alternate route along Mt Horeb Road and St. Marys Road, ending at Bethany Hills Road.

As part of the planning process, Enbridge Gas has retained Stantec Consulting Ltd. (Stantec) to undertake an Environmental Study for the Project.

An Environmental Report, summarizing the results of the Environmental Study, will accompany Enbridge Gas’ application to the OEB as part of their Leave

to Construct application. It is anticipated that the Environmental Report for the study will be completed in Winter 2021, after which Enbridge Gas will file an application for the Project to the OEB. The OEB’s review and approval is required before the proposed Project can proceed. If approved, construction is currently anticipated to begin in early 2023.

Consultation with Indigenous communities, and engagement with landowners, government agencies, the general public, and other interested persons is an integral component of the planning process. As a result of the social distancing requirements set out by the Province of Ontario due to COVID-19, a Virtual Open House will be held in place of an in-person Open House.

The Virtual Open House will be available for two weeks starting on September 13, 2021 and finishing on September 27, 2021 at www.solutions.ca/ BobcaygeonEA. A questionnaire will be available as part of the Virtual Open House, and you will have the ability to submit comments and/or questions about the proposed Project. In addition, a copy of the Virtual Open House story boards will be available on the Enbridge Gas project website at www.Enbridgegas.com/BobcaygeonProject.

Input received during the Virtual Open House will be used to inform the selection of the Preferred Route and to develop site specific environmental protection or mitigation measures for the Project.

We kindly request that any input and comments regarding the Project are provided by October 12, 2021.

ELECTION 2021 WHERE THE PARTIES STAND

Each of the federal political parties have longwinded platforms for this election that can be found on the individual party website. We’ve taken some of the top issues in our communities and offer a general overview of each party’s objectives. For more in-depth information, visit the Party’s website.

COVID

LIBERALS: The Party will continue on the path they’ve taken over the last 18 months. They pledge to continue to encourage vaccinations and vaccine certifications, and they also plan to extend the emergency wage subsidy to October and the Canada recovery hiring program to March 31. They have pledged to help the hard-hit tourism industry with a temporary wage and rent support for up to 75 percent of expenses.

CONSERVATIVES: Canadian travellers would need to pass a rapid test or present a recent negative test result before boarding a plane, train, bus or ship. As well, they pledge to help the hardest-hit sectors, offer loans to small and medium businesses in the hospitality and tourism sectors and help the rebuilding of the airline sector.

NDP: The NDP supports a mandatory vaccine policy and domestic vaccine passports. They promise to extend wage and rent subsidies for small businesses and “dedicated support” to help the hard-hit tourism sector rebound.

GREEN PARTY: Before making any decisions to make changes to the current vaccine policies, the Party “wants to see more details.” The Party promises to create “green jobs” for those who have been “severely affected.” They also pledge to extend rent and wage subsidies until restrictions due to COVID-19 are fully lifted.

PEOPLE’S PARTY: The Party strongly opposes vaccine passports and mandatory vaccination policies.

While supporting emergency provincial measures to protecting those most vulnerable, the Party says it will phase out all COVID spending programs and reverse new spending programs announced by the previous government.

LIBERTARIAN PARTY: The Libertarian Party of Canada pledges not to enact any such measures as lockdowns within the jurisdictions of the federal government.

ECONOMY

LIBERALS: The Liberals have a multi-faceted plan to deal with the economy, including: $10 a day child care to make life affordable for families: bring all businesses along to recovery and support them to hire the help they need; develop a better Employment Insurance system to support gig workers, self-employed people, and give workers more financial security; boost world-

leading Canadian innovation and research; and make sure everyone pays their fair share, including big banks and the wealthiest among us.

CONSERVATIVES: The Conservatives stress the need to get spending under control and to do this, their platform includes: Winding down emergency COVID support programs in a responsible way as Canadians are vaccinated and the economy re-opens; and ensuring that stimulus measures are targeted and timelimited to avoid creating a structural deficit.

NDP: The Party plans to create one million new jobs in its first mandate with “bold investments” in transit, community infrastructure, affordable housing, energyefficient retrofits and more. They would also increase the $15 federal minimum wage to $20 and immediately deliver a new disability benefit. New Democrats have said they would make the “creation of a guaranteed livable basic income” a priority in order to strengthen Canada’s social safety net.

GREEN PARTY: The Green Party is committed to a guaranteed livable income, arguing the Canada Emergency Response Benefit could have been converted to meet those ends. The Party also says they want to establish a “fair, national minimum wage.”

PEOPLE’S PARTY: The People’s Party says it can produce higher-paying jobs and tackle workplace shortages in many sectors by lowering taxes for all businesses. They promise to cut the corporate income tax rate to 10 percent from 15 percent over the course of one mandate.

LIBERTARIAN PARTY: The Libertarian Party believes in a free market economy where entrepreneurs and employees can flourish by producing the goods and services wanted by consumers thereby creating jobs and higher wages. The Libertarian Party of Canada would pay off the $1.1 trillion federal debt by selling Crown Corporations like the CBC and seek to eliminate all forms of compulsory taxation including the income tax, corporate tax, carbon tax, capital gains tax etc.

HEALTHCARE

LIBERALS: The Liberals multi-pronged healthcare plan, includes support to hire 7,500 doctors and nurses; better care in long-term care; work to hire 50,000 PSWs and raise their wages to $25 an hour; provide publicly accessible mental health care; and action to address the opioid crisis and make it easier for people with problematic substance use to access treatment.

CONSERVATIVES: The Conservative Plan includes boosting funding to the provinces for mental health care; providing incentives to employers to provide mental health coverage to employees; and creating a nation-wide, three-digit suicide prevention hotline.

September 10, 2021 - The Kawartha Promoter

7

ELECTION 2021 NDP: The NDP is promising to bring in universal pharmacare by 2022. The Party also says it will immediately bring in dental care for those without insurance and would work towards implementing universal dental care, ear care, eye care and fertility treatment. The party is promising better access to mental health and addictions support and to improve access to palliative care. To help pay for these measures, the NDP is pitching a super-wealth tax of one percent tax on households with wealth of more than $10 million.

GREEN PARTY: The Green Party says it wants to boost funding for mental health services and create a national mental health and suicide prevention strategy.

The Party also wants the care of seniors to be brought under the Canada Health Act and for long-term care to be publicly funded or not-for-profit. The party also wants to introduce a universal pharmacare program and provide better funding for dementia care.

PEOPLE’S PARTY: The People’s Party stresses that health care is a matter of provincial jurisdiction and says it wants Ottawa to “stop meddling” in the issue.

LIBERTARIAN PARTY: A Libertarian government would repeal the Canada Health Act so that provincial governments could analyze and implement healthcare reforms that will best suit their interests. Repealing the Canada Health Act would allow for legal access to private care.

INDIGENOUS ISSUES & RECONCILIATION

LIBERALS: The Liberal Party’s platform includes: confronting the legacy of residential schools; eliminating all clean long-term drinking water advisories; action to confront systemic racism against Indigenous Peoples, especially in the justice system and health care; launch an Indigenous Urban, Rural, and Northern Housing Strategy; and protect the wellbeing of Indigenous children and families.

CONSERVATIVES: Conservatives say they will recognize safe drinking water as a fundamental human right and end all long-term drinking water advisories on reserves. They pledge to increase economic partnerships with First Nations communities and to provide $1 billion over five years to boost funding for Indigenous mental health and drug treatment programs. Conservatives promise a plan to fund searches at all former residential schools for unmarked graves. They would also build a monument in Ottawa to honour residential school survivors and the children who were lost.

NDP: The NDP has pledged to quickly appoint a special prosecutor to pursue accountability for crimes committed in residential schools, pursue those responsible for the abuse or deaths of children, and 8

September 10 2021 - The Kawartha Promoter

require churches and governments hand over all records. New Democrats also pledge to lift all drinking water advisories immediately; close the health gap in Indigenous communities; and develop a First Nations justice and policing strategy.

GREEN PARTY: The Green Party says they will end long-term boil-water advisories by investing in and upgrading infrastructure and ensure every Indigenous person has access to educational opportunities. Their policy states they are committed to Reconciliation, Nation-to-Nation engagement and self-determination for Indigenous Peoples.

PEOPLE’S PARTY: The People’s Party says it would “explore options to replace the paternalistic Indian Act”; bring clean drinking water to remote First Nations communities; review federal spending on Indigenous programs to ensure they are better targeted to benefit the Indigeous population and those communities in greatest need. The Party also promises a relationship with Indigenous peoples based on mutual respect and respecting treaties.

LIBERTARIAN PARTY: The Libertarian Party pledges to undertake country-wide consultations with indigenous people to determine more methods of empowering them must be initiated; enter into new culturally inclusive treaty negotiations with all willing indigenous nations; and empower Indigenous Canadians and their local governments.

THE LEGACY CONTINUES

On Sunday, September 19, Canadians will come together once again across the country to support or participate in the 41st annual Terry Fox Run for cancer research. The event will be virtual this year, uniting dedicated supporters from coast to coast to coast in neighbourhoods across Canada as they participate in the virtual ‘Terry Fox Run. One Day. Your Way.’ “Terry had to stop his Marathon of Hope 41 years ago when his cancer returned,” says Fred Fox, Terry’s older brother. “He asked Canadians to keep on fundraising for cancer research without him so that his dream of finding a cure would one day be realized— and that is exactly what we need to do now.”

Fundraisers and donors will have access to a variety of new tools and technology to better support virtual fundraising efforts this year, including: • A newly designed website loaded with downloadable content, engaging videos, interactive timelines, and fun activities available at terryfox.org • A brand new Terry Fox Run mobile fundraising app available to download from the Apple App Store or Google Play that allows supporters to easily raise more money by automating outreach across mobile and social channels • Personalized QR codes for fundraisers across the country • Text to donate functionality to support all fundraising efforts with options to give $5, $10 or $25 by texting ‘Terry’ to 45678

Tap to donate stations in various provinces that allow users to give $5, $10 or $20, with payments made directly to The Terry Fox Foundation in support of cancer research “It’s important to us that our amazing volunteers and donors feel supported and connected during the COVID-19 pandemic,” says Michael Mazza, Executive Director of The Terry Fox Foundation. “We are making it as easy as possible to participate in this year’s Terry Fox Run or to sponsor one of the thousands of individuals and teams taking part.”

The impact of COVID-19 on Canada’s health care system and cancer care throughout the country has been substantial. “Cancer hasn’t taken a break and continues to deeply affect millions of people,” says Jim Woodgett, President & Scientific Director of The Terry Fox Research Institute. “Perhaps not since 1980 have we seen such a dire need for cancer research to ensure we can combat the negative effects of disrupted screenings, surgeries, and interventions for years to come.”

Canadians are encouraged to support and celebrate a favourite fall tradition that honours a national icon and makes a difference in the lives of millions of Canadians. All proceeds will fund innovative cancer research, including a bold new project called the Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network — a powerful collaboration of Canada’s best cancer researchers to accelerate precision medicine by sharing knowledge and resources, and building a new, accessible cancer data platform to deliver the best possible outcome for each cancer patient, no matter where they live.

FOREST AND NATURE SCHOOL RETURNS

Submitted by Elizabeth Healey

Gamiing Nature Center is pleased to announce the return of it’s popular Forest and Nature School (FNS) this Autumn. Commencing Friday, October 1 until Friday, December 10, Gamiing will offer an 11week session to youth under 12 years of age.

Gamiing welcomes Ms. Kim Hoskins, a graduate from Fleming College Ecosystem Management Program, and is currently pursuing certification in The Forest School Practitioner Program.

A mother of two youngsters, Kim contributed to Gamiing NC successful summer day camp program entitled “Canopy Day Camp”. Kim shares her passion for nature based education, identifying and preserving native species of plants and animals, and aquatic ecosystems. Her keen interests helped to deliver an exceptional day camp programs in August of this year.

Gamiing Nature Centre, offers parents an alternative – 200 acres to explore while providing their children with an opportunity to be active, to learn and to be immersed in the outdoors. In the words of John Lubbock; “Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach of us more than we can ever learn from books.”

The cost for 11 sessions is $600 and the sessions run from 9am to 3pm weekly. There is a limit of six children per group. For more information and to register, visit www.gamiing.org.

applicants to discuss eligibility for an onsite clinic.

According to PPH, COVID-19 case counts continue rise at an alarming rate, with provincial daily cases topping 800 on September 3. In a report published

by Public Health Ontario, the rate of COVID-19 cases in unvaccinated individuals is consistently higher from December 14, 2020 to August 21, 2021, compared to fully vaccinated individuals. The highlytransmissible Delta variant, which remains prevalent in the Peterborough area, has had a devastating effect on other jurisdictions, prompting the government to pause the provincial plan to exit the Roadmap, leaving Ontario in Step 3 for the foreseeable future.

Locally, workplace outbreaks continue to occur, where staff who have not been vaccinated acquire COVID-19 and spread it to others who are unvaccinated. Workplaces with a high number of unvaccinated staff risk having to shut down in the event of an outbreak. Fully vaccinated staff however will only have to self-monitor, not self-isolate in the event of an exposure; self-isolation of staff could result in staffing shortages.

GIVE IT A GO!

Jon Thurston of Dunsford is a member of Canada’s National Wheelchair Curling Team and would like to introduce other wheelchair users to his sport.

Jon has been working with the Bobcaygeon Curling Club to establish a “Give It A Go!” day that will introduce people in wheelchairs to the game of Wheelchair Curling.

PPH LAUNCHES ONLINE TOOLKIT FOR BUSINESSES

Peterborough Public Health (PPH) has launched a workplace toolkit to provide guidance on developing a workplace vaccination policy. It notes that workplace policies should explain its purpose, timelines and specific actions workers must take including providing proof of vaccination status or a medication exemption. To access the toolkit, visit www.peterboroughpublichealth.ca.

“The safer the public feels about attending your business, the more likely they will be to attend your business,” Dr. Salvaterra, Medical Officer of Health said. “Supporting your employees to get vaccinated is one way to both protect people and make them feel safer, and it is the best way to prevent outbreaks in workplace settings. I am strongly encouraging all workplaces to use these resources to develop a COVID-19 vaccine policy that will protect not just their workplace, but the community as a whole.”

Dr. Salvaterra noted that provincial labour laws require employers to use every reasonable precaution to protect the health and wellbeing of their employees.

This includes workplace hazards posed by infectious diseases.

The online resources launched today will also allow businesses in the area served by Peterborough Public Health to apply to host an on-site vaccination clinic. Peterborough Public Health will follow-up with

Working with the Board of the Bobcaygeon Club, the “Give It A Go!” Day will give participants an introduction to the sport as well as an opportunity to spend on-ice time with qualified instructors. From there, if participants would like to play on a team, they will have that opportunity.

The Bobcaygeon Club is a fully accessible Curling Facility and the Members and Board will be most welcoming to the new curlers.

Give It A Go Day is Saturday, October 16 from 12 to 4pm at the Bobcaygeon Curling Club. Please note that full vaccinations are required and it is an 18+ event.

HEADING WEST

Dr. Rosana Salvaterra, Medical Officer of Health for Peterborough Public Health (PPH) is heading west.

As of October 4, she will be joining Alberta Health as the new Deputy Chief Medical Officer of Health.

Dr. Salvaterra says, “I am looking forward to providing Dr. Hinshaw with the additional support and assistance she needs to ensure the office of the CMOH fulfills its role and mandate. I recognize I have a great deal to learn about my new home and new public health system, and I hope I will be able to make a meaningful contribution as a member of the team.”

After joining PPH in 2008, Dr. Salvaterra was instrumental in the response to COVID-19 since January 2020, providing leadership for the local fight against the virus. She was chair of the local vaccine taskforce, which was able to reach its target of 80

percent vaccine coverage. She also participated in a number of other initiatives, including the response to the opioid crisis, poverty reduction, community food security and building stronger relationships with First Nations.

NEW CEO FOR HABITAT

After a thorough due diligence process, the Board of Directors of Habitat for Humanity Peterborough & Kawartha Region are proud to announce that Susan Zambonin has accepted the position of CEO to begin October 4, 2021.

With Susan’s extensive leadership experience, construction knowledge, and determination to build more affordable homes, we are confident that we can help more families across the Peterborough and Kawartha Region achieve affordable homeownership,” says Board Chair, Jill Bennett. “Susan has a proven commitment to Habitat’s core values, helping over 110 families into affordable homeownership through 66 builds in Canada and 4 Global Village builds.

Susan, who is currently the COO with Habitat Peterborough & Kawartha Region, has been involved with Habitat for Humanity for 18 years and has 9 years combined executive leadership experience as CEO of Habitat PEI and Habitat Kingston.

She has won several awards including a Paul Harris Fellow from the Rotary Club of Charlottetown; and from Habitat for Humanity Canada an International Outstanding Contribution Award, Mentorship Award, and the Award of Excellence for creating a volunteer training program. Susan has also done numerous volunteer work and is an avid Rotarian.

Bennett continues, “We are confident that Susan’s many talents, depth of philanthropic experience with Habitat for Humanity, and proven strategic and collaborative leadership approach, will help us to increase our affordable homebuilding efforts throughout the Region, including the City and County of Peterborough, City of Kawartha Lakes, and Haliburton County.”

Susan will be taking over from Sarah Budd, who has led the organization for almost 15 years. The Board would like to thank Sarah for her amazing contributions and commitment during her time as CEO. Most recently, her leadership and vision were instrumental in managing the organization through the pandemic and moving the organization from a builder of single-family homes to a developer of multiresidential communities.

In partnership with the dedicated Board, volunteers, partners, and staff, Susan will undoubtedly be a great leader of Habitat Peterborough & Kawartha Region. Susan is coming on board as the organization

embarks on an ambitious new strategic plan and is in the midst of the ongoing pandemic and increased need for affordable housing.

It is an honour and a privilege for me to be Habitat’s new CEO and have a strategic leadership role in creating much-needed affordable housing in our communities,” says Susan. “This is an incredible opportunity to combine my passion for housing with my professional experience to continue to grow this respected organization. For over 18 years, I have been a leader in the fight for more affordable housing and I am very honoured to lead this great team in the Peterborough and Kawartha Region.”

DOOR-TO-DOOR FOOD DRIVE

Submitted by Sharon Walker

Last year, the pandemic forced a strange new normal. In order to adapt, Kawartha Lakes Food Source (KLFS) had to rethink how food donations were gathered, and so we held a porch pick up drive that spanned the entire town of Lindsay. That support helped our member food banks weather what has been a very busy year. Once more, Kawartha Lakes Food Source is in need help as inventory stocks run lower and lower in response to high numbers of food bank visits.

Last years’ Thanksgiving Door-to-Door Food Drive collected over 5,300 pounds of non-perishable food items, a goal we hope to reach and exceed in 2021.

With our member food banks seeing an increase in client visits over the month of August, our distribution centre inventory has dipped very low. To meet the anticipated need, this Thanksgiving Door-to-Door Food Drive is extremely important.

The Thanksgiving Door-to-Door Food Drive will take place on Saturday, September 25 and Saturday, October 2 between 10am and 12pm. The town of Lindsay will be split in half along Colborne Street, same as last year.

All homes located on Colborne Street and north of Colborne Street will be picked up on Saturday, September 25, while all homes south of Colborne Street will be picked up Saturday, October 2. On your designated day, we ask donors to leave your donation in a plastic bag and in a visible location on your porch before 10am. Volunteers will then safely gather your donation before 12pm.

Last year, south Lindsay won the impromptu competition to see which side of town could donate the most, raising over 3,000 lbs. We can’t wait to see if north Lindsay can come back this year to beat that record!

To residents able to donate, the distribution centre is running low on nearly everything. There are a variety of items that would be very much appreciated: canned meats like ham, chicken or turkey; canned cranberries; boxed stuffing; boxed or canned potatoes; and canned veggies like peas, corn or carrots.

For more information on when you can expect your donation to be picked up, or for information on how to donate financially, should that feel more comfortable,

you can contact Kate at Kawartha Lakes Food Source.

You can reach her at info@kawarthalakesfoodsource. com, by calling 705-324-0707 or you can watch our Facebook and Instagram, @KawarthaLakesFoodSource, for updates.

VACCINATION PROOF REQUIRED

As of September 22, 2021, Ontarians will need to be fully vaccinated (two doses plus 14 days) and provide their proof of vaccination along with photo ID to access certain public settings and facilities.

Requiring proof of vaccination in these settings reduces risk and is an important step to encourage every last eligible Ontarian to get their shot, which is critical to protecting the province’s hospital capacity, while also supporting businesses with the tools they need to keep customers safe, stay open and minimize disruptions.

Proof of Vaccination Will Be Required for customers, not staff, at the following: • Restaurants and bars (excluding outdoor patios, as well as delivery and takeout) • Nightclubs (including outdoor areas of the establishment) • Meeting and event spaces, such as banquet halls and conference/convention centres • Facilities used for sports and fitness activities and personal fitness training, such as gyms, fitness and recreational facilities with the exception of youth recreational sport • Sporting events • Casinos, bingo halls and gaming establishments • Concerts, music festivals, theatres and cinemas • Strip clubs, bathhouses and sex clubs • Racing venues (e.g., horse racing) These mandatory requirements would not apply to outdoor settings where the risk of transmission is lower, including patios, with the exception of outdoor nightclub spaces given the risk associated with the setting. In addition, these requirements will not apply

to settings where people receive medical care, food from grocery stores, medical supplies and the like.

Aligned with public health measures currently in place, indoor masking policies will continue to remain in place.

Ontario will develop and provide additional tools to improve user experience, efficiency and business supports in the coming weeks, including establishing alternative tools for people with no email, health card or ID.

Ontarians currently have access to a paper or PDF

vaccine receipt that includes all relevant information to prove that they are fully vaccinated. As of September 22, Ontarians will be required to show their vaccine receipt when entering designated settings along with another piece of photo identification, such as a driver’s licence or health card.

Ontario will also introduce an enhanced digital vaccine receipt that features a QR code, which is safe, more secure and with you wherever you go. This digital vaccine receipt can be kept on a phone and easily used to show that you’ve been vaccinated if you need to. In addition, the province will launch a new app to make it easier and more convenient for businesses and organizations to read and verify that a digital vaccine receipt is valid, while protecting your privacy.

CKL RECOGNIZING TRUTH & RECONCILIATION

The City of Kawartha Lakes is flying the Orange Shirt Day flag at half-mast at City Hall for the month of September to signify a time for residents to reflect and learn more about the lived experiences of residential school survivors, their families and communities.

The Federal government has announced September 30, 2021 as the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (National Orange Shirt Day) and a statutory holiday. Municipal services will remain open during regular business hours on this day.

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) released its final report on June 2, 2015, which included 94 Calls to Action to redress the legacy of residential schools and advance the process of Canadian reconciliation. All Canadians and all orders of government have a role to play in reconciliation.

In response to the 57th Call to Action, municipal governments are to provide education to public servants on the history of Aboriginal peoples, including the history and legacy of residential schools.

This will require skills-based training in intercultural competency, conflict resolution, human rights and antiracism. City Staff, members of Council, the Planning Advisory Committee and the Committee of Adjustment

will be required to take mandatory training that begins this month.

In response to the 67th, 68th, 69th and 70th Calls to Action, a Repatriation Policy has been adopted by Council to address repatriation of Indigenous artefacts and remains and sharing of archival information with First Nations.

Further actions include a First Nations Land Acknowledgement and a First Nations Consultation Policy recognizing Treaty 20 and the “Williams Treaties”.

BCC RECEIVES TRILLIUM GRANT

The Buckhorn Community Centre (BCC) has received a grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) in support of their application to the Resilient Communities Fund.

The grant of $149,000 will support the purchase of audio-visual equipment, a portable stage, chairs, a sound deadening room divider, a storage building, a road sign, and materials to complete a wall.

“We believe that OTF’s investment in the BCC will support our efforts to build resilience and capacity in our organization,” it says on the BCC’s website. “These funds will help us generate revenue and stay connected to our community while we recover through COVID. We are excited to work with the Ontario Trillium Foundation on this revenue-generating project at the BCC.”

Horoscopes

Sept 10 to Sept 23

By Melodie McCullough

Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”: Ralph Waldo Emerson.

This is wise advice, Aquarius, if you are setting out on adventure – or any journey, simple or otherwise.

Cancer (June 23 to July 23) Appreciate those who have gone before you, dear Cancer, and anticipate the needs of those yet to come. The past will give you wisdom; the future will give you hope.

Leo (July 24 to Aug. 23) Friends will move on, Leo. They will find new homes far away, new jobs, and, yes, new friends, too. But true friends will live in your heart forever.

Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) Don’t give up on humanity, dear Pisces. There are still more good people on this Earth than bad. Find them and make them your own.

Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) Calmness is an enviable trait to have, Virgo. It has great power when all around you is chaotic. And it will bring you peace when others are hyper-ventilating!

Aries (March 21 to April 20) Learn to laugh at yourself, Aries, not others! Make light of your mistakes because no one is perfect – and they will not matter one whit down the road.

Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) Your workload may increase in the coming days, Libra. Keep a level head – and don’t let it consume your life.

Taurus (April 21 to May 21) Take time to heal, Taurus. Grief is a life-long process from which you will continue to learn. You may never be able to mend completely, but with love and understanding age may soften the worst.

Gemini (May 22 to June 22) Worrying will not accomplish your goals. In most cases it is a useless waste of time. Not only does it not help, it can hinder. Your time, Gemini, is much better spent on things over which you have control.

Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) Always make time for new experiences, Scorpio. They will keep you fresh and curious and help pass the rainy days!

Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Your talents are being recognized, far and wide, Sagittarius. You may not hear from your admirers often but know that they ARE aware of your abilities and are watching your progress.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Everyone needs a break, Capricorn, and now it’s your turn. So, take that little nap, or head off for a vacation – either will be most beneficial.
