ARTISTS CELEBRATE: A group of artists, led by teacher Donna Love, unveiled a mural they painted together at Stephen Leacock Community Centre yesterday morning. The mural was painted over an eight-month period in memory of Susanne Sykes. The artists who collaborated on the project were Tai Kwon, Catherine McDevitt, Connie Mendoza, Bob Micks, Peter Miller, Irene Nagy, Maria Prochilo, Marjorie Scott, Lynne Woods, Sophia Ge and Robin Hammond.

In February 2011, with a provincial election looming, the Liberal government announced a moratorium on offshore wind projects, but the anemometer kept working on its platform until it was removed last August.
