April 10 to 16 is National Volunteer Week and there is no better time to say thank you to the millions of volunteers across the country and those in our own community.This year\u2019s theme is \u201cVolunteers are the roots of strong communities.\u201d Volunteer Canada explains: \u201cJust like roots are essential for trees to bloom, volunteers are essential for communities to boom.Thanks to volunteers, our communities grow strong and resilient.Even the tiniest volunteer effort leaves a profound and lasting trace in a community, much like tree rings that appear over time.\u201d Economists have attempted to put a price on volunteering; in 2013 they estimated that if volunteers were paid for their time it would amount to well over a billion dollars.That is a significant amount of money! But volunteering is not about money, it\u2019s about giving back to one\u2019s community in a meaningful way.It\u2019s about improving a situation, righting a wrong, or just lending a hand.It is being the change you want to see.What would look like if volunteers did not exist?Without volunteers there would be no church groups, no food banks, no youth centres, no women\u2019s centres, no community organizations, no libraries, no animal shelters, no foundations, no fund-raising events, no environmental groups, and no voice for the voiceless.It\u2019s a rather bleak picture.Volunteers do not give of themselves for glory, in fact a 2013 study from Volunteer Canada revealed that volunteers simply want to be thanked.So to all of the volunteers who help Townshippers\u2019 Association in everyway, from the board of directors to the teams involved in Townshippers\u2019 Day, our long time office volunteer Johanne, income tax and event volunteers, we say a huge THANK YOU!

we\u2019re not just looking for places to show movies, we are trying to plan activities that connect with their respective missions.\u201d The FCMS will screen 90 films from 50 countries at venues large and small throughout Sherbrooke by the end of the day on Sunday.More information about the lineup of films and schedule of events involved in this year\u2019s festival is available in English online at http://fcms.ca/en/ COURTESY FCMS A moment from the opening night of the 2015 edition of the Festival Cinema du Monde de Sherbrooke, outside of the Maison du Cinema Theatre downtown.Ayer\u2019s By Matthew McCully Anyone travelling over the new Champlain Bridge onto the Island of Montreal will be rolling over a little piece of the Townships.Ayer\u2019s Cliff company Everest Equipment Co.is involved in the construction of the new bridge.\u201cWe\u2019re really happy about the project,\u201d said Shawn Maltais, project manager for the engineering department of Cliff company pitching in on new Champlain Bridge project the company.Maltais explained that Everest was hired to build the molds and forms that will cast the concrete bases for the bridge, which will sit in the water.Work started last July, and Maltais said Everest will be involved in the project for the next 1 years.The bridge is scheduled to be completed by December, 2018.Maltais said that Everest has been involved in a number of prestigious pro- jects around the world, but he was pleased to have a hand in a project so close to home.The number of companies making bids for the project was fairly restrictive; not many have the resources and expertise required for the mammoth job, according to Maltais.The solid designs Everest came up with, along with being a local company helped seal the deal, he added.\u201cAny time they need something, we\u2019re just an hour and a half away.\u201d Since the original bid, Maltais said Everest has received mandates for additional work.They have done some steel work, but 90 per cent of Everest\u2019s role in the construction is in creating forms and molds.Their equipment is already on site, Maltais said.The concrete is being cast on Nun\u2019s Island before being assembled and placed to form the base of what will be the new Champlain Bridge One critically injured By Gordon Lambie Aman in his eighties was taken to the CHUS in Fleu-rimont with serious injuries on Tuesday afternoon after his vehicle collided with a large transport truck on route 108 near Wheeler Road.According to Sûreté du Quebec representative Aurelie Guindon, the accident took place around 2pm when the driver of the smaller vehicle moved into the oncoming lane for an unknown reason.The driver of the truck was uninjured, but the road had to be closed and traffic diverted Tower Cont\u2019d from page 1 Ayer\u2019s Cliffs rejection of the tower proposal follows a letter drafted in January by the Mem-phremagog MRC and signed by the municipality\u2019s 16 mayors, asking Brome-Missisquoi MP Denis Paradis to push for a moratorium on cell tower construction anywhere in the MRC.The letter calls into question the federal government\u2019s authority to overturn decisions made by on the 108 in order for the SQ\u2019s reconstruction experts to examine the scene.Guindon reiterated that the reason for the accident remains unknown, but speculated that the driver of the car may not have been feeling well.municipalities regarding land use, and asks that Paradis bring the concerns outlined in the letter to the House of Commons for serious discussion.The 1st Lennoxville Scouts Lawn & Garden Sale in conjunction with Clarke & Sons of Lennoxville.We are taking orders until April 13, 2016.Pick-up/Delivery on April 16, 2016, 9 a.m.to noon only.Location: Clarke & Sons, 2881 College St., Lennoxville.Order forms available directly at Clarke & Sons in Lennoxville or from any Scouter from 1st Lennoxville group or by phone Melissa (819) 562-4969 (please leave a message) Help support our local youth with your purchase of Bird Seed, Soils, Fertilizers, Mulch and Grass Seed!

attempting to order and replace things I will need to start over in a new space, but with no space to keep everything in the meantime.Now that work has actually begun, which is part of the landlord's insurance policy, I have to focus on my end of it.Once the room is built and Terry can move in, then replacing ALL of my equipment for grooming will be partially covered by my insurance but nothing for the animals, which will mean the biggest expense.To rebuild their cat house, to construct the isolation area, to rebuild my office and to replace all of their medications, vitamins and necessities.I still haven't finished compiling the replacement list of everything that was in there, there was a lot, but I estimate that it will cost no less than $12,000 that will not be covered by insurance, which is why a few upcoming fundraisers that people have planned to help us is so incredibly appreciated.Just one cage, and we will need at least 14, costs $420.This expense is definitely not one that the store can handle or absorb, infact, the store had a hard time with its regular expenses before all of this.The store's job is to pay its own bills, which includes feeding the animals, and employees and what is made as profit then is used to pay vet expenses.All extra that the store makes is always gone before it is actually made.It's why I was seriously worried about whether I was going to be able to continue to save animals after all of this.I'm still not convinced we will be able to do it, but I have employees, family and friends who will not take no for an answer and we move forward each day doing the best we can.I think the old saying is, \"Robbing Peter to pay Paul\".If I saw anything through all of this, it is that the community wants to see us continue to do what we are doing, so we have been trying and will keep trying.People have organized events on their own to help our animals and help us continue to do what we are doing.Coming up; April 10th, my vets and vet techs at Hôpital Vétérinaire de L'Estrie have organized a nail-a-thon and photo shoot.For a $10 donation you can get your pet's nails clipped, or grinded as I will be on hand with my grinder, or you can get a photo of you and your pet.Their address is 2736 Galt Ouest in Sherbrooke.April 16th, a very long time friend of mine, Tim Brink has joined up with Firehouse Productions to hold a large concert at Centennial Theatre at 8 pm.Some of the proceeds will be coming to help us and some will be going to the Lennoxville and Sherbrooke firefighters, which makes me very happy since so many of my animals are only alive because of their quick action and help.To get your $30 tickets (tax included) call Centennial at 819-822-9692.April 24th, another friend of mine, Tammy Garfat has joined up with other friends of ours to hold a Bingo at the Hut at 300 St.Francis Street in Lennoxville at 1 pm.Everyone has been working really hard to collect prizes and get ready for the day.I, of course, can not begin to thank these people enough for doing these things for us on their own time and accord.Without all of their support, there is no way we could continue on this mission of ours.We, at The Pet Connection, never asked for any of this help, this is people around us who insist on helping, for no other reason than to help our animals and I know my ani- mals are so very thankful to have so many people who care about them.It takes a community to save a life.Thank you to everyone who will attend the events and thank you to everyone who continues to help and support our mission to ,\"save one life at a time.\" AUSSI ALSO STEFANIE PARNELL 16 avril 2016 April 16, 2016 20h/8pm This page is provided by Blue Seal - The Animal Nutrition Centre and The Pet Connection.CENTRE DE NUTRITION ANIMALE DOGGIE DAY CA offers \u201cA home away from home\u201d Weekends, holidays and Pay care Cageless, personalized care for your pet- 1730 Wellington Street South Sherbrooke \u2022 819-348-1888 blueseal@agrianalyse.com press/jLVA'J Printed and distributed by PressReader Pressjl e a d er .c o mop ?OM+JCOP 6 0 4_ 27 8^4604 COPYRIGHT AMD PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW .

good at asking for help.Maison Oxygène remains a key step on path out of homelessness By Scott Stevenson Good news for now from Sherbrooke\u2019s Maison Oxygène Estrie, a shelter of last recourse for homeless single fathers: it raised more than the $25,000 it needed by the end of March to stay open.The shelter\u2019s executive director, Sarah Gaudet, sent out a cry for help in mid-March with just two weeks to go before it would have to close if it didn\u2019t raise a minimum amount to pay rent and continue supporting the five single-father families being housed.Most local media reported on the cry for help, messages went out through Facebook, and regional media such as CBC Radio also spread the word.Two weeks later, $28,000 had been raised, changing the atmosphere of doom among the fathers, children, and staff at the Maison to one of relief, encouragement, and hope.All the donations were private, with many of them being from individuals who made $10 to $500 contributions, in addition to three larger donations in the $5000 to $7000 range and contributions from three businesses.With this short-term success, the Maison will be able to operate until June 1\u2014 when the problem returns.It has applied for emergency funding from the Estrie region\u2019s health and social services network, but Ms.Gaudet said she doesn\u2019t know when the shelter might receive an answer.She is hoping for some kind of positive response and to find a way to have recurring funding so that her team isn\u2019t constantly fundraising while also trying to serve the resident families.The project to create the Maison Oxygène Estrie started in 2010 with the shelter opening in 2012.It has raised $700,000 since then to be able to operate\u2014all from private donations.Oxygène Estrie is the only resource for homeless single fathers, which allows them to continue parenting.\u201cMen want to be present in the lives of their children,\u201d Ms.Gaudet said.The fathers at the shelter \u201chave nowhere else to go.They need proper housing to see their children.\u201d The path to homelessness Homelessness often starts when a man or woman finds him- or herself alone after a breakup.Add lower self-esteem from problems growing up and at school, alcohol or drugs, possibly depression or another mental illness, and the individual can easily lose work and housing and find him- or herself on the street.Many get into trouble, with drugs or alcohol or other problems, to relieve the pain and to spend a night off the street in jail.Homeless shelters don\u2019t usually accept clients who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.In Sherbrooke, the Accueil Poirier, part of Partage Saint-François, accommodates such men and women.Many of the men are fathers and are eventually referred to the Maison Oxygène Estrie.Half of the fathers at the Maison arrive after a separation, Ms.Audet said, adding that men aren\u2019t good at asking for help.\u201cTheir distress increases, increases, increases.They are too humiliated even to collect welfare.They have nothing left.\u201d By the time they arrive at a homeless shelter, their need for help is long overdue, and there are many cases of depression.The inability to care for, much less see, their children adds to the humiliation.But part of the raison d\u2019être behind the Maison Oxygène Estrie is a belief in the importance of both parents to children.When homeless fathers are ready-drug- or violence-free, for example\u2014they may be taken in hand, and the shelter becomes an important door to their road to recovery and rebuilding a family life.It costs about $160,000 per year to operate the Maison Oxygène Estrie, which can accommodate up to five fathers and their children, usually for periods of about three months.For more information or to donate, contact the Maison Oxygène at 819-679-8191 or online at http://maisonoxyge-neestrie.com.RECORD 1195 Galt East, Sherbrooke, Quebec JIG 1Y7 Fax: 819-821-3179

Association (QESBA) 'Message,' on March 28, this week will be the last days of the hearings by the Committee on Culture and Education studying the school board reform Bill 86.The Association informs us that the French parents provincial association, who have \"endorsed Bill 86 since its deposit,\u201d will get the last word, on April 6, while the QESBA will continue with its \"lobbying efforts\u201d to have it ditched.That said, for the past several weeks, a lot of scorn has been heaped by English-speaking organizations and school boards, at these public consultation hearings, which are centered on the Liberal party's plan to upgrade our anachronistic public school system.Consider the March 24 press release put out by the Quebec Community Groups Network: \"Bill 86 tramples on minority rights and should be scrapped.\" Further, add: \"English Montreal School Board goes on attack against Bill 86 at Assembly hearings, \" (The Suburban, March 30).Before that, the Lester B.Pearson School Board said, \"students will suffer\u201d under the bill (\"School board wants Bill 86 dropped,\" Montreal Gazette, March 17).On December 16, 2015, Anglo groups, including the Quebec Federation of Home and Schools Association declared the \"Bill belongs in the garbage\" (CJAD Radio, CTV) and \".à la poubelle disent des anglophones \" (Le Devoir, Jan 16, 2016).That said, no one can deny the majority Liberal government, which was voted in by over 1.7 million Quebecers, has been extremely fair to the Anglophone community.Think of the QESBA, several English school boards and other major groups, who have presented their briefs, bashing the bill, to the Committee.The anglophone groups headed by the Association with unlimited financial resources, and a lobby group, ironically, paid by parents, have been given a disproportionate amount of time to put forth their views at the hearings.However, the Committee has not yet heard one English voice that agrees with all the general principles of the Bill.Allow me.Bill 86 is forward-looking, parent-friendly with pedagogically sound initiatives, which, when passed, should make for happier parents truly managing and controlling their schools.This will be accomplished by these provisions in the draft bill: (1)\tthe elimination of school board executive committees - the home of board secrecy and menace to real democracy, (2)\tThe creation of the 'Resource Allocation Committee,' which looks at services, especially for 'special-needs' students, and (3)\tThe heavy involvement of parents in decision-making at all levels.Indeed, there is no greater democracy than the direct democracy the bill affords.Premier Philippe Couillard said on Sept.15, 2015, on Global TV: \" We want to shift the centre of gravity of the system toward the school, the teachers and the parents.\u201d I hope Bill 86 passes.Chris Eustace Montreal r,.MvCU = \u201ed distributed by Prt»nC.u«, .presslïlrinïï Pressjeadercojnw+ 1JS04_278 4604

Then, when he led a second spade, South might have thought it couldn\u2019t hurt to draw trumps with another finesse through East\u2019s apparent queen.But West would have produced that queen out of his back pocket and cashed the spade 10 and club ace to defeat the contract.CROSSWORD Across\t39 Mazda MX-5, familiarly 1 Fabric mimicked by jeggings\t40 Big nights 6 Dallas NBA team\t41 How-to component 10 Indian mausoleum city\t42 Follow, as a hunch 14 In the company of\t43\tPlaines 15\tbargain\t44 Rockefeller Center centerpiece 16 Fountain contribution\t46 Farm enclosure 17 Midler\u2019s \u201cDivine\u201d nickname\t47 Bit of naughtiness 18 Burn unit procedure\t48 Doze 20 Allow to enter\t53 Disney character with a white tail 22 Big name in auto racing\t56 Quartet of Wagnerian operas, and a 23 Kerfuffles\thint to the progression in this puzzle\u2019s 25 Advanced degs.\tcircled letters 26 \u201cRogue Lawyer\u201d novelist\t58 Regal headpiece 31 Whiskas eater\t60 Bordeaux brainstorm 34 Pulitzer winner Walker\t61 Down-to-earth 35 Actor McGregor\t62 2001 scandal subject 36 Dance in a pit\t63 Boilermaker component 37 Hull fastener\t64 Prohibitionists 38 Group\t65 City near Florence Down 1\tReservoir creator 2\tGerman actor Jan-nings 3\tSommelier\u2019s asset 4\tExamples 5\tClassic British two-seater 6\tBase cops, briefly 7\t__-Seltzer 8\tCorpuscle conduit 9\tDreamy guy?10\tLots of plots 11\tButter in a farmyard?12\tAfrica\u2019s Great_Val- ley 13\tNaysayer 19 Light weight 21 Hide-hair link 24 Afternoon break 26 Actor/singer Leto 27\tGreen hue\t48 Chicago paper, for short 28\tHomes with buzzers\t49___-de-camp 29\t\u201cNi-i-ice!\u201d\t50 Bermuda shorts endpoint 30\tQuaint headpiece accessory\t51 One with an untouchable service 31\tRaccoon kin\t52 Word with fair or foul 32\t_Martin: 007\u2019s car\t54 Unadorned 33\tAcknowledge in an Oscar speech, say 55 Fairway choice 36 Barely-there dress\t57 PGA star from South Africa 39 Powerful people\t59 Santa___Mountains 41 Rock band Lynyrd___ 44\tLegato\u2019s opp., in music 45\tSan Francisco\u2019s_Hill 46\t\u201cLike a Rock\u201d rocker JtU 26\t27\t28 \"N 29\t30 L\tE\tA\tF\ts\t\tM\tE\tW\ts\t\t1\tD\tL\tE A\tL\tG\tA\tE\t\tG\tH\t1\tA\t\tM\tO\tA\tN D\tO\tN\tK\tE\tY\tK\tO\tN\tG\t\tH\tG\tT\tV E\tP\tE\tE\t¦\tG\tA\tW\tK\t¦\tP\t0\tK\tE\tY D\tE\tS\t\tR\tO\ty\t¦\tW\tH\tO\tM\tE\t\t \t\t\tA\tE\tR\t¦\tV\t\tO\tL\tE\tN\tC\tE H\tA\tD\tN\t\t¦\t\t'\tN\tN\t¦\t¦\tN\tA\tT E\tR\tA\t¦\tD\tO\tO\tR\tK\t\tY\t\tE\tM\tO L\t1\tN\t1\t¦\tG\tN\tu\tÈ\t¦\tO\tR\tL\tO\tN M\tA\tN\tH\tO\tL\tE\tS\t\tA\tG\tO\t\t\t \t\tY\tO\tD\tE\tL\t¦\to\tR\t1\tG\tA\tM\t1 A\tN\tK\tL\t\t¦\tL\tU\tR\tE\t¦\tA\tN\t1\tN R\tE\tA\tL\t¦\tD\tA\ts\tK\tA\tP\t1\tT\tA\tL G\tA\tY\tE\t\to\tM\tN\t\t¦\tA\tN\t1\tT\tA O\tP\tE\tR\t\tN\tA\tA\tN\t\tD\tE\tC\tA\tY Printed and distributed by PressReaderA Pres^R e a d er \u2022 Jj o\t?oRia+L]op6 0 4_ 27 8b 4604 COPYRIGHT AMD PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW y press "]
