from October 19 to 29,2006 Personnel appointed by the Ministère des Ressources naturelles et de la Faune (MRNF) and the Ministère de l’Agriculture, des Pêcheries et de l’Alimentation (MAPAQ) will capture and vaccinate raccoons and skunks within a 10-sq.km area in the Municipality of Cowansville.To ensure public safety and a successful operation, we ask citizens to comply with the following: From October 19 to 29 Inclusive: o Keep domestic animals indoors to ensure they are not captured in the cages and thus allow the maximum number of raccoons and skunks to be captured o Avoid approaching or moving the cages o Avoid removing any non-toxic paint marks you may find on your animal, since they indicate that it has been captured, vaccinated and released At all times: o Never approach wild animals or animals you do not know o Have your dogs and cats vaccinated against rabies (see your usual veterinarian) o Report any dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks or foxes which appear to be disoriented, abnormally aggressive, paralysed or dead to Services Québec: 1 800 363-1363 o If you are bitten, wash the wound with soap and water for 10 minutes and immediately contact your CLSC Info-Santé service.For more information on rabies, visit the Public Health Department's Web Site at: www.rrsMl6.0ouv.qc.ca/santopubHque or contact your CLSC Info-Santo Service Québec Speak right from the heart.A donation in memory of a loved one is a gift of hope.It takes just a few minutes.A card will be sent to the bereaved family as a token of your sympathy and generosity.1 888 473-4636 HEART AND STROKE FOUNDATION Of QUEBEC Horses: Cont’d from Page 1 riders from Montreal and the northern United States bring him their horses to break, cultivate and bring out the very best in them.It really is a team sport.Robinson has started a program called Share a Horse.It is the perfect program for any child interested in riding, yet who is unsure of the commitment and what becoming a rider entails.Horse ownership is a wonderful experience and Robinson enables people to share in that experience before they make the move to own their own pony or horse.This is how the program works: The rider commits to half the board, shoeing, and veterinarian bills, while Robinson carries the other half of these expenses.The rider must also commit to one lesson a week to ensure he or she is learning the skills and fundamentals needed to learn to ride a horse, and the responsibilities of horse health and grooming.Other than the occasional lesson with another rider not on the program, the person sharing the horse may ride at any time.Robinson also makes sure the horse is available to the rider in the Share a Horse program for competitions.So someone looking to compete or just become a very good casual rider may do so before deciding what kind of pony or horse is best suited to their needs.Another advantage is that the program allows the rider to progress to bigger horses without the worry of what to do with the horse once they have outgrown it.The horse or pony simply moves on to another rider.Assisting Robinson in making the program a success are trainers Lisa Johansson and Wendy Jones.Both women are highly trained horsewomen and it is under their tutelage that the beginner riders are given an understanding of the nature of the horse.Young rider Constance Millaire-Piché began her riding career in the Share a Horse program, giving her a taste of the reality of horse ownership and the commitment needed in order to become a good rider.She has since moved on to own a horse and is the youngest rider participating in events in Quebec.Robinson has five of his riders on the eight-member listrie team — Millaire-Piche, Anna Johansson, Etienne Gau-thier-Dufour, Katherine Martineau and Patrick Leimgruber.Working student Another project Robinson has in place is the Working Student program.Fauve-Elise Guilbault is a young woman aspiring to compete and train horses for a living.Her involvement as a “working student” at Robinson’s stables entitles her to exchange work for lessons.This is the perfect way for me to become involved and get to know the day-h>day operations of a stable,” Guilbault said “It is like family here at the stables and Keith oversees each of us to ensure we are well prepared for our competitions and on the day of the event, he makes sure we have everything ready.” For information on the Share a Horse program or private and group lessons, boarding and training, drop by the stables at 1038 Jordan Road, in Sutton, from 8 a.m.to 5 p.m., seven days a week, or call 450-538-2936.HAVE YOU TESTED YOUR WELL WATER THIS YEAR?We do not sell water systems !

wouldn’t float Our lakes are quieter places now as we head into late September.Sadly, many of them have been abnormally quiet since mid-summer, courtesy of major algae blooms of the blue-green variety, replete with high concentrations of something called cyanobacteria.Sporadic activity continues — the odd fishing boat, a few sailing craft when the wind is up, even the occasional bold waterskier when it’s down.Most days, though, the lake is eerily quiet, empty of traffic, docks and rafts deserted, a few boats left seemingly forgotten in their lifts.On the matter of which, a few years back, a friend and I acquired as a joint venture a Zodiac-type craft with an outboard motor big enough for wakeboarding and water skiing, and to handle bigger water on junkets away from home.For the last month it too has been suspended, forlorn and neglected, on its lift by the end of the dock.With both of us gong away for a while, I thought it best to bring the boat up on land to its storage place behind the barn.There are around, unfortunately, nasty people who might just feel it had indeed been abandoned and claim it as their own under the cover of some dark night.The other owner is a hands-on guy, more mechanically inclined and adept at nautical matters (I have by times claimed to come from a long line of seafaring folk, but mostly they were just beachcombers, cabana boys and peddlers of sleazy trinkets and baubles).However, he’d already headed out east to partake in the Targa Newfoundland car rally.But, I figured, how difficult could it really be, this common task of getting a boat on a trailer?More so than I’d thought, it soon turned out.First, I couldn’t find the plug for the rear drain.There was a round white plastic thing bobbing loosely about, but it was way too small.So I improvised, using the cork from a bottle of sparkling wine.Next, I topped up the air pressure in the three flotation chambers; they always go a little soft when not in use (it is best to resist the temptation to make comparisons with other things in life Career NOTARY’S OFFICE is looking for a full-time receptionist.General office work.Must be fully bilingual, have a sense of organization and computer skills.Experience required.Please fax your resume by October 31st to 450-242-1558 or e-mail us at legal@notarius.net on this point).Then it was time to lower the supports until the craft floated freely.At which point I shoved off into the lake and began paddling towards the bridge and the public boat ramp on the south side of the inlet.With not much more than 100 yards of distance to cover, I didn’t bother trying to start the motor.It was a pleasant weekday morning, sunny and calm with no one around.I took my time, paddling casually, alternating sides.until I noticed a lot of water around my feet.The hull always leaked a bit, but not this badly.I picked up the pace and got as close to shore as was prudent.Doing a quick check, I noticed a small white plug in a secondary drain in one side of the stern.Which led me to conclude, perhaps the little white loose thing had a definite purpose.Sure enough, water was pouring through an open hole on the opposite side.When I leaned down to insert the plug, though, I discovered that the port side flotation chamber had lost almost all its air.And ditto for the other sections as well.There I was, the boat wallowing with just enough buoyancy to keep the motor off the bottom.The paddle flailed as I headed under the bridge.And there, just beyond, a recently re stored beaver dam completely blocked the channel.I dragged the half-sunk boat partly up onto the debris, being careful to avoid sharp pointy sticks.The stern sank lower, though, with the motor half submerged.After some hurried, messy baling with a cracked bucket with a broken handle, the boat assumed a much better attitude.The next task was to make a hole in the centre of the dam.which involved standing on the thing while pulling at the packed weeds and branches, sticks and mud.Ten minutes latter, mud-splattered and bleeding through a few scrapes and punctures, 1 eased the boat through the opening into clear water toward the deserted ramp, the Jeep and trailer beyond.Maybe this will turn out to be the easy part, I hoped.Luckily, it was.Speak right from the heart.A donation in memory of a loved one is a gift of hope.It takes just a few minutes.A card will be sent to the bereaved family as a token of your sympathy and generosity.1 888 473-4636 d?m MASSEY-VAN 1ER OPEN ITS DOORS TO THE PUBLIC ON SUNDAY NOVEMBRE 5TH 2006, A 1 PM •
