Federal leaders back on the trail The Canadian Press Ottawa With the shadow of the Mike Duffy trial looming larger than ever, Stephen Harper kicked off Week 2 of the federal election campaign with a headline-grabbing effort to crack down on homegrown terror threats.Harper, keen to show off his bona fides as the experienced incumbent, promised to make it a crime for Canadians to travel to specific countries or regions where they could fight alongside groups officially identified by the federal government as terrorist organizations.He says a re-elected Conservative government would establish \u201cdeclared areas\u201d \u2014 regions of the world where terrorist groups like the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant hold control and use their base to recruit and train followers.Forgoing casual campaign garb for the more prime ministerial suit and tie, Harper made his announcement at a news conference in Ottawa, flanked by Canadian flags.He said national security agencies would track Canadians who travel to those areas; those who return would be required to prove they were in the region for humanitarian reasons, or as a journalist covering the conflict.Similar laws exist in Australia, which has designated parts of Iraq and Syria as no-travel zones.New Democrat leader Tom Mulcair dismissed Harper\u2019s announcement as a campaign gimmick, suggesting it would have very little real effect on curbing terror.Cont\u2019d on Page 3 Fair season underway CLAUDIA VILLEMAIRE I'\" % ft ¦«ymtf I £L* Éî\\*\" àl Fair season got underway in the Eastern Townships over the weekend with the Coaticook Valley Expo and the Bedford Fair.Top: Callum McKinven (right) of Lookout Farm in Hatley Township poses with his grand-prize-winning Holstein.Bottom: Fairgoers enjoy the merry-go-round at the annual Bedford Fair.The next exhibition is the Cookshire Fair, from Aug.20-23.English USB BIS Comfort, Care and Countryside If you are looking for quality care, a safe and secure home, where seniors\u2019 dignity is respected in an environment that promotes \u201e\tindependence, friendship and comfort!

Lennoxville Haskell Hill Road in Lennoxville will be closed throughout next week, as the project to lengthen Highway 410 continues.The Quebec Transport Ministry announced on Friday that the road would be closed from today until Friday, with motorists asked to detour via Route 108-143 [Queen Street], College Street and Belvedere South.In case of inclement weather (not that there has been any of that this summer), the work could be delayed.Crews are currently working on the segment of the highway between Belvédère Street and Queen Street.After the latest segment of the expanded Highway 410, from Université Boulevard to Belvédère Street, opened last fall, MTQ officials expected construction to Queen Street to take about a year.The highway is planned to completely bypass Lennoxville and connect with Route 108 near the Experimental Farm, but a timeline for the final stage of the project has not yet been determined.Weather TODAY: MIX OF SUN AND CLOUD HIGH 26 SUNRISE: 5:42 SUNSET: 8:03 m&m rurL

Townships Small towns and big players BRIAN MACIVLR Andrzej Fonfara couldn't be distinguished from another 27 year old if it weren't for his Team Fonfara shirt or his massive hands.By Brian Maclver Special to The Record Evanston, III.Growing up in Sherbrooke and going to school in Lennoxville was great: you have all the amenities of a big city while still somehow preserving the small-town feel.I mean, you don\u2019t have a metro or an amusement park, but all things considered, it\u2019s a pretty great place to be.Chicago is a whole other can of worms.The big city has everything you could ever dream of, including things from your nightmares (giant garbage eating rats, anyone?).While not so great for raising a kid (in my opinion), it\u2019s a great place to be if you\u2019re in your twenties like me.And then there are places like Dela-van, Illinois.Located in Middle-of-Nowhere County in Farmland, USA, Delavan is the polar opposite of Chicago.A small farming community of roughly 1,700 people according to the last census, Delavan is home to not one, not two, not three, but FOUR parks (as everyone I spoke with proudly announced).Oh, and it also has seven churches, which should tell you more than enough to get the feel of this place.I had a chance to drive to Delavan a couple of weeks ago to report on a story that I am currently working on.And while everyone jokes that Lennoxville only has one intersection with lights (two if you count the one by the St.Francis bridge), Delavan would be able to function perfectly fine without any stop signs.Delavanites thought the one-bloclc stretch of downtown was \u201cbusy\u201d during lunch (I had encountered four cars while driving in town, three if you don\u2019t include the one I passed twice).As much as life is fast-paced in Chicago, it is as easy-going and calm as you can imagine in this little remnant of a different era.Even the way people talk, with a thick Midwestern twang and a drawn-out pronunciation, is an indication that change doesn\u2019t come easy for Delavan.Yet this community is at the forefront of the newest business in Illinois as it is home to the state\u2019s largest medical marijuana growing center (about 75,000 sq.feet [7,000 square metres]).Now, I agree that calling it the largest growing operation in Illinois so early in the state\u2019s legalization process is the equivalent of calling someone the tallest midget, but it is still impressive.Meeting a champ As much as I would have liked to stay there an extra day, I was forced to drive back down that Friday evening after finishing my interview with the Mayor of Delavan.I had to return to Chicago because of a very important meeting I had scheduled for Saturday: a lunch interview with Andrzej Fonfara, the World Boxing Council International light heavyweight champion.We met at Forno Rosso on Harlem Avenue, one of his favorite restaurants for his \u201ccheat days,\u201d days where he can eat what he wants without worrying about his diet.He looked like an average 27-year-old Polish man.I mean, except for the fact that he was wearing a brown \u201cTeam Fonfara\u201d tank top and cap and that he drove a Porsche Cayenne.But then again, he was wearing jorts (aka jean shorts), so the everyman comparison is really a propos in this case.Nothing about his demeanor suggested that he makes his living by trying to knock people unconscious.Or that he threw over 900 punches in nine rounds in his latest fight, completely dominating the heavily favorited Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.and sending him to the hospital in an ambulance after his TKO victory.Instead, we spoke about how he met his fiancée and how the first thing out of his mouth when he saw her was \u201cOh yeah!\u201d and how he got a tattoo on his calf of the date they first met (the tattoo reads 2007, but they met in 2006).We spoke about how his other ventures are going (he owns a gym, an import warehouse for materials like marble and granite, and a granite countertop business).He ordered a very tame cheat day lunch consisting of a grilled chicken panini while telling me how he got into a bar fight five years ago, knocked out two guys (\u201cthe first guy made a move like he was going to punch me.I guess I was faster,\u201d simply said the Polish-native), and spent the rest of the night in jail (charges were dropped).For two hours, I was sitting in a restaurant with a man who was in the ring with Adonis Stevenson just last year and is looking for a rematch against him in 2016.But really, I was just having lunch with what felt like a good guy.Brian Maclver is a Sherbrooke native, and graduate of Bishop\u2019s and Champlain, who is currently studying for a graduate degree in journalism at Northwestern University, where he somehow, despite living in the third-largest city in the U.S., managed to find a town that was sleepier than Lennoxville.Ben by Daniel Shelton WE'RE PLAYING' \"WHAT IF WE WON THE LOTTERY\"'.I THINK WE SHOULPGO

Gordon Lambie Sherbrooke Tlhough it was not yet the case at the end of last week, Townshippers are awakening this morning to a returning office open in every local riding.One week after the election call, the region\u2019s returning officers are ready to do work ahead of them over the next three months; managing and organizing the federal election in each constituency.Though that one week of setup time might make it seem like Elections Canada was challenged by the earlier election call, Richard Dion, the man who has served as Sherbrooke\u2019s returning officer since 1998, said that his job has been easier this year than ever before.This, he explained, is as a result of the fixed election date.\u201cIn the past, we found out at the same time the public did, we had no warning,\u201d Dion said.\u201cThis time, we have been ready for three and a half years.\u201d When speaking with the Record on Friday afternoon, the returning officer had yet to set up the computer and telephone systems in the office space Elec- tions Canada will be occupying in Sherbrooke.Since that time Dion\u2019s and the other, more rural offices, have all established their public faces and the Sherbrooke officer said that as of now, the offices are ready for any questions or concerns that people might have.Each riding\u2019s returning office will be the go-to resource for election-related information, from where to vote to information about who the candidates are, what identification voters will need, and what advertisements are legitimate or not.While it is still early days in the election campaign, Dion pointed out that it is never too early for those who are planning to vote to make sure they are registered to do so.Elections Canada is encouraging two different ways for citizens to check their registration status.The main approach they recommend is an automated online tool built into the Elections Canada website, but for those without access to the Internet, Elections Canada can be contacted toll-free at 1-800-463-6868.Either option will also help locals locate their respective offices, should they have any more focused questions or concerns.Elections Canada, meanwhile, is busily working on hiring elections officers and staff in order to make sure that all hands are on deck as the country moves forward toward October.Leaders Cont\u2019d from Page 1 \u201cThere\u2019s very little evidence to show that this is going to have any concrete effect, I don\u2019t know of too many flights between Toronto and the war zones, most of them are going through other countries so it won\u2019t make a big difference practically speaking,\u201d Mulcair told reporters in Vancouver after attending an NDP rally.Liberal leader Justin Trudeau called Harper\u2019s announcement a diversion designed to take the attention of Canadians away from his government\u2019s failed economic plan.But, he added, Harper would have to answer a lot more questions than he did Sunday about any policy that proposes to take rights away from people.On Wednesday, Duffy is scheduled to be back in court as his trial\u2019s star witness takes the stand: Nigel Wright, Harper\u2019s former chief of staff and the man who gave the disgraced former Conservative senator $90,000 to repay his disallowed housing and travel expenses.Asked at a campaign event in the Ottawa-area later on Sunday about how Wright\u2019s pending appearance might change the dynamic of the election campaign, Trudeau called it a reminder of Harper\u2019s \u201clack of respect for democracy and of his extremely poor judgment.\u201d Harper has long insisted that Wright acted on his own and did not say anything about the transaction to him or anyone else in his office.But he was questioned Sunday about the trial \u2014 and in particular what Wright meant when he wrote in a February 2013 email that he\u2019d been given a \u201cgood to go\u201d from the prime minister.\u201cI did not know that Mr.Wright had made a payment to Mr.Duffy,\u201d Harper replied.\u201cAs soon as I learned that, I made that public.And Mr.Wright has been clear about that.This is the purpose of the process and those who are responsible and I\u2019ll let the court do its work.\u201d And \u201cgood to go\u201d?\u201cThe words you\u2019re quoting are not my words, they\u2019re somebody else\u2019s,\u201d he said.When asked about the ramifications of his proposed antiterror measure, Harper struck a defiant tone.\u201cThere is no right in this country to travel to an area under the governance of terrorists; that is not a human right,\u201d he said to a barrage of partisan applause.He acknowledged \u2014 grudgingly \u2014 that humanitarian workers, journalists and diplomats might \u201ctheoretically\u201d have legitimate reasons for travelling to such a country.\u201cThere will be exceptions in the law for those legitimate reasons, and I don\u2019t think that people who have legitimate reasons will have difficulty showing those, but we know what other people are doing there,\u201d Harper said.\u201cThat is something that we have to nip in the bud before trained terrorists return to this country.\u201d Harper also volunteered an answer to a question he wasn\u2019t asked, reacting to remarks made last week by \u201cstar NDP candidate\u201d Linda McQuaig, who told a CBC panel discussion that for Canada to meet its climate change targets, \u201ca lot of the oilsands oil may have to stay in the ground.\u201d The comments contrasted with NDP leader Tom Mulcair, who has been open to oilsands development provided there is rigorous environmental protection and legislation to force oil companies to pay for pollution they create, including increased greenhouse gas emissions.Mulcair does, however, support a west-to-east pipeline for moving oilsands crude to market.\u201cThat is the NDP\u2019s not-so-hid-den agenda on development,\u201d Harper said.\u201cThe NDP is consistently against the development of our resources and our economy.That\u2019s why they have been a disaster wherever they\u2019ve been in government and why they would wreck this economy if they ever got in, and why they must never get into power in this country.\u201d Trudeau also chimed in, saying the exchange shows that both Harper and Mulcair are in \u201cextreme positions\u201d on oil extraction.\u201cWhat Albertans know, what all Canadians know, is the way to grow a strong economy in the 21st century is by caring for the environment, and you don\u2019t get to make a choice between one or the other,\u201d he said.Mulcair repeated his party\u2019s position in Vancouver on Sunday and stressed that developing Canada\u2019s natural resources must go hand in hand with reducing climate change.\u201cSustainable development is not a slogan, it\u2019s something that has to become very real,\u201d he said.\u201cCanada\u2019s reputation is being hurt on the world stage, simply because we\u2019ve been working against the planet.\u201d Monks visit Stanstead MATTHEW MCCULLY By Matthew McCully Stanstead The Buddhist monks visiting Stanstead this weekend completed their sand mandala, the product of roughly 20 hours of work for four monks working at a time, at 11 a.m.on Sunday.Visitiors had less than three hours to enjoy and photograph the completed work before it was dismantled.Some of the sand was placed in bags and offered to onlook- ers, the balance was released in to a nearby river as part of a purification ceremony.Jason Simard, a monks from Quebec City, said his group does between five and 10 man-dalas per year.The monks, who assembled from Toronto, Montreal and Quebec City, will rest for a few days, and then head to Ottawa for another event.Simard said some spectators become visibly upset when the mandala, made of individually placed grains of sand, is destroyed as soon as it is complete.\u201cWe explain the process before,\u201d he said.\u201cIt\u2019s a good exercise.\u201d A steady flow of people passed through the former church on Notre Dame Street to see the monks work.Tables were set up so that visitors could try making their own mandalas using sand and tools provided by the monks.Other stations were set up to paint designs on stones.A selection of Buddhist prayer artifacts, including singing bowls and bells were on sale.The proceeds from the event and sale will benefit the Gajang Buddhist Temple in India.RECORD Serving the entire Eastern Townships with three publications Jo-Ann Hovey Advertising Consultant

The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Monday, August 10, 2015 Page 5 Meet Your Neighbours Music makes her world go round MATTHEW MCCULLY w ^ Rosemary Cavanagh\u2019s love of music has followed her around the world, including on a pair of stints in Africa.By Matthew McCully Lennoxville Within every group of people, there are hidden talents.At a party, for example, there is that someone who will bust out of party persona, lie down on the floor and fix the wheel on your screen door.There is the tech wiz that will interrupt a conversation, offering to fix the settings on your phone that have prevented you from retrieving your email.And then there is the musician.The unassuming wallflower who discreetely makes their way to the piano or any other instrument lying around and suddenly silences the room.Rosemary Cavanagh is that person.Not only is she a musician, but through her years as a music teacher and choir director, she trained hundreds of young students to understand and appreciate singing and playing music.\u201cMy mother and father loved to sing,\u201d Cavanagh said.Her father, who was Italian, was known to walk through the house singing 0 Sole Mio.She began taking piano lessons at six years old.When she was 11, Cavanagh\u2019s piano teacher decided she should study organ, since there was a demand in Catholic churches in the area.Six months later, she had a steady gig.Cavanagh, sharing the responsibilities with another organist, would play the first service on Sunday mornings, and sing the second.By her early teens, she had moved up to playing at the cathedral in the area.\u201cI loved it,\u201d she said, remarking on the pipe organs she had the privilege of playing in her home town of Peterborough, Ontario.\u201cThey were Casavants from Quebec.\u201d Cavanagh trained as a music teacher, and married Tom, not exactly a high school sweetheart, but close enough.\u201cWe knew each other in high school but we never really hit it off,\u201d Cavanagh said, adding it wasn\u2019t till Tom went away to school and returned that she figured out he was the one.Life brought the Cavanaghs to Huntsville, Ont., and then to Ottawa, and then to Castlegar, B.C., and then to Ghana, a country in West Africa.\u201cI was at the hairdresser one day when Tom came in with a telegram saying he\u2019d been offered a job.\u201cI think my hair stood on end.We were going to Ghana.\u201d Other family members immediately opposed the move.\u201cYour kids are going to get snalce-bitten; they\u2019re going to get malaria.\u201d Cavanagh said none of her kids were bitten by a snake.But they did get malaria.They also benefited from a unique learning experience in terms of the culture in Africa, as well as their education.\u201cWe were not home schoolers,\u201d Cavanagh said, trying to teach her kids at the kitchen table.Eventually, she teamed up with another teacher and two other mothers, all ex-pats, and set up a school for their children.\u201cIf a child was ready to learn something, we taught it,\u201d she said, explain- ing that when the family eventually returned to North America, Settling in Lennoxville, the four Cavanagh kids went through a period of adjustment.\u201cThey went from a class of six kids to a class of 30, and they didn\u2019t understand why they had to repeat the things they had learned the previous week.\u201d The Cavanaghs later had a fifth child, Laura, who prompted a second trip to Africa, because she had not had the opportunity to live there.They moved to Malawi.\u201cIt was an interesting place to live,\u201d she said, trying to find the right word to describe the political atmosphere.When asked if volatile were the word, Cavanagh said, \u201cIt was volatile if you didn\u2019t obey the rules,\u201d adding that there were strict laws for women and the clothing they could wear.After two years, they returned to the area.\u201cI had a plum job,\u201d Cavanagh said.She taught music at Marymount Elementary, an English school in the then-Catholic school board that eventually became Sherbrooke Elementary.\u201cThe principal thought music was important,\u201d she said, which helped her build a choir of around 100 students.They were even given \u201cchoir time\u201d during the day to rehearse, so as not to interrupt noon hour and recess breaks.The choir would perform at the Sherbrooke Hospital and seniors residences in the area, and of course, at the school for Christmas concerts.\u201cThat was the part of the job that I loved,\u201d she said.\u201cI remember those little faces, the ones that would usually have trouble in school, sitting perfectly straight, attentive.It was a good time for them,\u201d Cavanagh said.\u201cChildren have to be taught to be literary with music,\u201d she went on to say, adding that it\u2019s not enough for the occasional sing-a-long in a class because the teacher knows a campfire song or two on a guitar or keyboard.\u201cMusic and math go so well together,\u201d she said, stressing its importance in the education system.She remembered during her teaching years, getting together with other music professors and trying to get a raise.They were quickly shut down by the union president.\u201cIf you try to get a raise, they will probably just cancel the program,\u201d they were told.Cavanagh retired in 2000.\u201cI\u2019ve become a gardener, a quilter and a painter,\u201d she said.Travelling is still something she and Tom enjoy, but rather than return to Africa, their trips are to visit their five children, none of whom settled in Quebec.Music is also still important to Cavanagh.\u201cWe have a piano.It gets used.\u201d Her favourite music is old folk songs, Cavanagh said.\u201cAll of last week I was stuck on Waltzing Matilda.\u201d \u201cEvery once in a while a modern tune will feel good.But usually not,\u201d she laughed, preferring classics like As Time Goes By and a nice Beatles song.Singing is also a must for Cavanagh, even though St.Antoine church in Lennoxville closed.As soon as it did, she contacted the choir director at St.Patrick\u2019s in Sherbrooke.\u201cI haven\u2019t missed singing in a Christmas choir since I was 12 years old.Can I come sing,\u201d she asked.«THE* RECORD \u201cThe only English daily newspaper in the Eastern Townships\u201d For a 7-day free trial online, go to: www.sherbrookerecord.com, click on e-edition, then click on Free Trial and fill in the information You will receive confirmation that your online subscription is activated.THERE FOR YOU 24-HOURS A DAY, 7-DAYS A WEEK, WHEREVER YOU ARE!

whether looking at a news article, a billboard, a television shows, or a campaign poster, design desisions are rarely accidental and always have an impact on their readers, one way or another.In an ideal world, people would think about what they read all the time, but if it\u2019s going to be a limited-time-only kind of action, then during an election cam- - ¦TUI.¦ RECORD 1195 Galt East, Sherbrooke, Quebec JIG 1Y7 Fax: 819-821-3179 e-mail: newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Website: www.sherbrookerecord.com Sharon McCully Publisher .(819)\t569-9511 John Edwards News Editor.(819)\t569-6345 Stephen Blake Corresp.Editor.(819) 569-6345 Serge Gagnon Chief Pressman.(819) 569-9931 DEPARTMENTS Accounting.(819)\t569-9511 Advertising .(819)\t569-9525 Circulation .(819)\t569-9528 Newsroom .(819)\t569-6345 Knowlton office 5B Victoria Street, Knowlton, Quebec, JOE 1V0 Tel: (450) 242-1188 Fax: (450) 243-5155 PRINT SUBSCRIPTIONS \t\t\tGST\tPST\tTOTAL Quebec:\t1 YEAR\t135.60\t6.78\t13.53\t$155.91 \t6 MONTHS\t71.19\t3.56\t7.10\t$81.85 \t3 MONTHS\t36.16\t1.81\t3.60\t$41.57 \tON-LINE SUBSCRIPTIONS\t\t\t\t Quebec:\t1 YEAR\t71.50\t3.58\t7.13\t$82.21 \t1 MONTH\t6.49\t0.32\t0.65\t$ 7.46 Rates for out of Quebec and for other services available on re-\t\t\t\t\t quest.The Record is published daily Monday to Friday.Back copies of The Record are available.The Record was founded on February 9,1897, and acquired the Sherbrooke Examiner (est.1879) in 1905 and the Sherbrooke Gazette (est.1837) in 1908.The Record is published by Alta Newspaper Group Limited Partnership.PM#0040007682 Return undeliverable Canadian addresses to The Record, 1195 Galt East, Sherbrooke, QC JIG 1Y7 Member ABC, CARD, CNA, QCNA mu® paign is a good choice.For the next 70 days, no matter who you feel in your heart you should vote for, read their work closely and always ask questions.Think about what they say and why they say it, look at what they are repeating and what they are not and ask yourself what they are saying with each action that they take and see if it matches with what they've said out loud.Maybe the answers to those questions will solidify your vote, or maybe it will shake your beliefs to their foundations.There\u2019s only one way to find out.If we care about the future of our country, then being critical readers and critical thinkers is the best thing we Canadians can do for ourselves during this election campaign, if only we can take the time to do it.Picture of the Day 4j?\t& AP PHOTO/EUGENE HOSHIKO a, *V-hlfe>v-7, »\t_ JtASi > hi j___ÆÊ^^Ê Doves fly over the Peace Statue during a ceremony to mark the 70th anniversary of the atomic bombing in Nagasaki, southern Japan Sunday.

Here are three things to look for as the Phoenix season gets underway.Making the final leap?Since their inception in 2012, the team has been built with an eye to being a contender this year.After struggling through their first two years (barely making the playoffs in Year 1, and finishing last in Year 2), the Phoenix moved up into the middle of the league standings.They finished tied for sixth last year, but suffered a disappointing first-round exit.The plan has always been to be a contender for the league title in Year 4.This is that year; the last season for forward Daniel Audette and possibly the last for defence-man Jeremy Roy.Goaltending The draft-day trade of Alex Bureau to Gatineau means that Evan Fitzpatrick goes into camp as the clear No.1 goalie.Giving the keys to a 17-year-old could be a risky move, especially in a league that has valued veteran goal-tenders.Fitzpatrick had a solid, albeit inconsistent, rookie season, and the 2014 No.4 overall draft pick will need to improve his game if he is to lead the Phoenix to the top of the division (and himself to a better draft spot).Bigger, stronger, farther?Throughout their existence, one of the Phoenix\u2019s shortcomings has always been a lack of size, both up front and defensively.It is no coincidence that the first three Phoenix draft picks: Jason Imbeault, Logan Johnston and Brock McLeod, are all six feet tall.They also signed Kevin Groulx, a six-foot-two, 200-pound forward from Stittsville, Ont.Groulx, 19, played 22 games with the OHL\u2019s Ottawa 67\u2019s, and spent most of the last year in Junior A with the Smiths Falls Bears.More size should help the Phoenix through what they hope to be an extended playoff run.

After that, if you play a lot with the same partner, give New Minor Forcing a try.Look at today\u2019s South hand.North opens one club, South responds one spade, and North rebids one no-trump.What should South do now?He could raise to three no-trump, but that would probably work badly, the defenders immediately taking four hearts and one diamond.How does South find out if partner has three-card
