but as the day went on, it became a success.\u201cThe authors ended up having such a fabulous time,\u201d she said.Not only could they interact with locals who enjoyed their work, LaDuke said because they were scheduled with a slight overlap, the authors ended up interacting with each other, some meeting for the first time, and making new friendships and connections.Starting at noon, the authors volunteering at Black Cat Books on Saturday will include Steve Cameron, Marianne McEwen, Marco Fraticelli, Barbara Verity, Gilles Pelloquin, Denis Palmer and Heather Davis.The local writers cover everything from history to haiku, according to LaDuke.Refreshments will be served on the porch, LaDuke said.Brome Lake Books in Knowlton will welcome volunteer author Mari Hill Harpur between 10 a.m.and noon on Saturday.Bookstore owner Danny McAuley remembered last year thinking Authors for Indies was a fantastic initiative, but he wondered, \u201cwhat a great idea, but who is going to come all the way out here?\u201d Operation Backpack: SqcUfrfrect ta He was pleasantly surprised to have many local eus- for Black Cat Books on their website at www.blackcat-tomers make the trip to the store to say how important book.net and on the Brome Lake Books Facebook page, the bookstore was to the community.Recognizing the industry is changing, McAuley said that he tries to make sure the store stays active and busy in town, hosting events and meetings, selling tickets for local shows and trying to be an integral part of the community.\u201cWho knows what\u2019s down the road,\u201d he said, aware things can change quickly.In addition to volunteer Mari Hill Harpur, McAuley said there will also be a play reading at Brome Lake Books for Authors for Indies day.Giving the event a fishing theme, smoked salmon treats will be served, and there will be a fish pond activity for kids to compliment the reading of \u2018The Great Kooshog Lake Hollis Mc-CAuley Fishing Derby,\u2019 directed by Emma Stevens.McAuley also said there will be blind dating with books, where some of the bookstore\u2019s favourite reads are wrapped in brown paper with cryptic hints written on them.\u201cSometimes covers are deceiving,\u201d McAuley said, giving customers a chance to throw caution to the wind and take a leap of faith on a new book.For a list of all the participating bookstores across Canada and more details about Authors for Indies day on April 30, visit the website www.authorsforindies.com.A full schedule of local events can be found Correction The new Backgammon Association will officially launch Saturday May 7 at 3 p.m.instead of Saturday April 30 at the bar Le Refuge des Brasseurs on Galt Street West.BECOME A SPONSOR Operation Backpack is an initiative of The Record in conjunction with the Lennoxville & District Women\u2019s Centre and volunteers whose goal is to ensure every child in need starts the school year with a new backpack filled with school supplies.The committee is seeking sponsors to purchase a backpack and supplies, estimated at $75.The goal is to equip 85 children for the coming school year.To become a sponsor, contact Sharon McCully at outletjournal@ sympatico.ca IT TAKES A COMMUNITY While donations of school supplies form the foundation of our program, financial donations will allow the committee to purchase additional supplies.We are enlisting the support of the business community to become Bronze Sponsor: $150 Silver Sponsor: $375 Gold Sponsor: $750 Cheques can be made payable to the LDWC, 257 Queen Street, Sherbrooke, QC, J1M 1K7, indicating it is for School Supplies.Tax receipts will be issued.

and mirrors v Mike McDevitt Last week, on April 20 no less, the federal government announced that legislation legalizing and regulating the recreational use of marijuana will be ready next spring.It\u2019s been a long time coming.The history of marijuana prohibition is a long and complicated one, but its origins can be summarized as a part of a widespread movement of white middle class progressives who believed in the benefits of social engineering based on ethnic, class, and Victorian moral grounds.It was a movement designed to \u2018uplift\u2019 society and advocated for things like women\u2019s suffrage, improved working conditions, and public health and education reform.Sadly, they also supported things like eugenics, and forced sterilization, and residential schools.Throughout the pre-WW2 era, marijuana usage was largely confined to southern blacks and jazz musicians but occasionally popped into public consciousness as a public menace threatening the very fabric of society - not to mention the purity of our sons and daughters.The weed came into mainstream popular culture in the 1960s in the wake of the Beatles, long hair, the anti-war movement, and free love and was the most benign face of a concoction of recreational substances that included a number of addictive and dangerous drugs to which it bore no similarity.In the face of the sudden, almost explosive adoption of marijuana by the nation\u2019s youth, the Liberal government of Prime Minster Pierre E.Trudeau mandated a Parliamentary Committee under the Chairmanship of future Supreme Court Justice Gerald LeDain to investigate the non-medical use of drugs in Canada and, in reference to pot, suggested that it be legalized and regulated for personal use similar to the way in which we mange alcohol.Despite their general popular acceptance, the recommendations of the Commission were put aside, as the United States was enlarging its own war against the social movements there that were associated with marijuana use - notably opposition to the Vietnam War.Although, it is difficult to find an objective reason for the prohibition of cannabis, its criminally contraband status has produced a well-established, organized, and profitable criminal network that has virtually captured marijuana distribution.This network, ubiquitous and unregulated, operates in a code of underworld morality in which \u2018the public good\u2019 plays no role (It\u2019s like the banks that way) and which controls billions of untaxed dollars.Despite best efforts from governments and police, marijuana use has remained an extremely popular activity and its regulated legalization makes sense in a broad sense, but as the saying goes, the devil is in the details and, as yet, those details are extremely vague.The government has stated that its legislation will focus on protecting the young as studies have indicated that its use among children and adolescents (and maybe young adults) might be associated with abnormal brain development and even the triggering of schizophrenia.Although these studies are not conclusive, they do indicate the need for some rigorous control, as a matter of public health.The government will also have to deal with the idea of\u2018impairment.\u2019 Like alcohol, a generally far more dangerous substance, cannabis is a mood altering substance that can interfere with a number of cognitive functions.However, it has never been categorically demonstrated that uncontrollable giggling, an insatiable appetite for snacks, or an appreciation of the divine aspects of the Beatles\u2019 White Album actually constitutes \u2018impairment\u2019 when it comes to things like driving (probably not) or brain surgery (definitely).So far, the technology available for detecting marijuana cannot establish exactly when a person partook, how stoned he or she is, or even how either of those things contributes to impairment.Establishing a RECORD 1195 Galt East,

speed through a stop sign; the stoned one will wait for it to turn green.The biggest question for all concerned, of course, is what a future legal marijuana market will look like.For many, the solution is to remove marijuana from the list of controlled substances altogether and to let the chips fly where they will.You could grow your own, exchange with friends, or purchase from your local farmers\u2019 market.That isn\u2019t going to happen.There is way too much money to be made and too many \u2018legitimate\u2019 people eager to get their share.There are also all those experts who have illicitly transformed a mild little weed into a myriad of strains with a wide variety of properties and characteristics.They too will want to enjoy the fruits of their labour.Big business will want its share too, of course, and small businesses will get bigger; all of which adds up to considerable revenue for government.But which government are we talking about?How will the spoils of billions of dollars worth of transactions be divided?Should each province set up its own rules with pot available in convenience stores in one province and government-owned outlets in others?How will quality and potency be categorized and controlled?How will regulations be enforced and by whom?A recently published government re- port suggested that organized crime might be able to infiltrate a legal marijuana market but, headlines\u2019 aside, it is difficult to understand how a market partially infiltrated by criminal organizations is worse than one completely controlled by one.But as the case of tobacco illustrates, this is not a baseless concern.Black market tobacco has infiltrated the legal tobacco market to an extraordinary extent with estimates placing its market share in some regions at close to 40 per cent.This is a result of contradictory desire of government to curtail the use of another lethal, but legal, substance while maintaining the revenues in the form of taxes imposed throughout the lines of distribution.Contraband tobacco products exist because legal ones are too expensive for most nicotine addicts and if an alternative is available, they\u2019ll use it.The result is obvious and should serve as an example to our governments of what not to do.There is no doubt that Canada has to emerge from the dark era of marijuana criminality, and we certainly should reexamine our entire drug control policy, but this is a complicated process that involves countless issues and a large cast of players, not all of whose interests converge.It\u2019s good that we have a year to sit back, grab some chips, and think about it.There\u2019s a Cheech and Chong movie on somewhere.Letters The Record welcomes your letters to the editor.Please limit your letters to

Record Paul Ballard has big plans for the Bishop\u2019s University women\u2019s soccer team.\"I want Bishop's to be a destination for girls to come to continue their education and athletics,\" Ballard said after being named the new head coach of the Gaiters\u2019 soccer club.Ballard comes to Lennoxville after serving as an assistant coach with the Trinity Western Spartans men's soccer team and is also the National Soccer Director for Athletes in Action.Current coaches Amanda Dewey-Plante and Chris Hornibroke will continue their involvement with the team in a support role while Robert Pinkston is no longer are in the Townships.While at Bishop's Ballard will continue to work with Athletes in Action as the National Soccer Director.He will oversee a team across Canada that runs international soccer tours, community soccer camps, coaching development and other local outreaches.\"My goal for 2016 is to build off the foundation and create a brand for Bishop's Women's Soccer,\" he said.\"From all accounts the previous coaching staff has set up a great team culture which has led to the re- turning group of players being a tight unit.We have a lot of work to do and we have to press forward.\" Ballard's thoughts on success are clear and certainly something he will pass along to his team.\"In the short term I want my players to come to each training session and game and give me everything.At the end of the day, hustle beats talent, when talent doesn't hustle.In the long term I want to dream big.To quote Terry Fox, 'Dreams are made if people try'.I will commit to doing everything I can to develop Bishop's Women's Soccer into a playoff caliber team that could compete for a National Championship in the next 5-10 years.\" Lofty goals but Ballad understands what it takes.When he started his playing career at TWU, his men's squad was in last place in the league; three years later they were Canada West Champions.\"Paul is more than just a coach\", said Director of Athletics and Recreation Jean-Benoit Jubinville.\u201cHe is a great person and understands our role is to educate student-athletes in all facets of their lives.On the pitch he has played for and worked with some great teams and he brings experience from a winning program.\" Canada\u2019s Sports Hall of Fame and Canadian Tire Proudly Present the Class of 2016 Seven sporting heroes recognized

we need youth around the world to be leaders and problem solvers today, not just the leaders of a distant tomorrow.Last week, the world witnessed the 28th Global Youth Service Day.During this three-day event, thousands of community partners in the United States and 125 other countries activate millions of young people to strengthen their communities.Global Youth Service Day recognizes the positive impact that young people have on their communities 365 days a year.When given the opportunity, young people are great assets and resources to their communities, providing unique Annie\u2019s Mailbox perspectives and skills.Moreover, youth who are engaged as active community members are more likely to grow up to volunteer, vote and donate to charitable causes.Please inform your readers about the service grants and volunteer opportunities available to young people and the organizations that support them year-round.They can visit YSA.org/grants for available opportunities.You can also find us on social media at ©Youth-Service on Twitter and Youth Service America on Facebook.Sincerely \u2014 Steven A.Culbertson, President and CEO, Youth Service America Dear Steven Culbertson: We hope all of our readers, young and old, teachers and students, will check out your website to see how they can participate in these wonderful opportunities.Thank you for letting us know.Dear Annie: I\u2019d like to respond to \u201cNot an Exhibitionist,\u201d who said that an 8-year-old boy peeked into her shower at the YMCA.I have a 9-year-son with severe autism who loves to swim.Our local pool does not have a family changing room.We have to go through the men\u2019s or women\u2019s locker room to reach the pool.I don\u2019t enjoy bringing my son into the women\u2019s locker room, but I have no other choice.He would not be able to navigate the men\u2019s locker room on his own.He might run off or easily be led somewhere by a stranger.He is a beautiful boy, and you wouldn\u2019t know he had autism by looking at him.Please give women who bring their older sons into the locker room the benefit of the doubt.There may be a good reason why they are there.\u2014 Mom with No Other Options Dear Mom: We agree that some children need to tag along with Mom in order to use the pool.But they can be closely supervised and taught to respect a closed curtain.We also think family changing rooms make a great deal of sense these days, and we hope parents (and others) will lobby all such facilities to include them.Annie\u2019s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.Please email your questions to anniesmail-box@creators.com, or write to: Annie\u2019s Mailbox, c/o Creators Syndicate, 737 3rd Street, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254.You can also find Annie on Facebook at Face-book.com/AskAnnies.Ladies Auxiliary Br.15 Richmond regular meeting On the evening of April 19, eighteen members gathered at the Legion Hall.The meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m.Sgt.of Arms, Cmdr.Wendy Ridley and color bearers, Cmdr.Helen Knowles, Patsy Biggs and Linda Badger marched on the Colors followed by the opening ceremony.A new member, Julie Cote, was initiated by Cmdr.Pres.Ann and Cmdr.Elsie.Welcome Julie to our Branch.Roll call was taken, followed by the Minutes of the last meeting, they were accepted;
