of pet licenses in the areas served by the Society for the Protection of Animals of the Eastern Townships (SPA Estrie).Owners of cats and dogs already registered with the SPA have received their notice of renewal in January.\"The Estrie SPA is responsible for the annual registration of cats and dogs on behalf of 24 Estrie municipalities,\" says Cathy Bergeron, communications officer and spokesperson for the organization.Twenty-four municipalities, including Sherbrooke, Magog, Richmond, and Coaticook, to name a few, entrusted us Fie January 16th until February with the management of the annual registration and the collection of the fees.\u201d Bergeron recalled that registration of cats and dogs is mandated by a municipal by-law and is compulsory.\"Municipal regulations stipulate that every pet owner must register it with the SPA Es- trie and pay the fees by February 15.\" \"With the aim of encouraging owners to sterilize their canine or feline companions and, consequently, to combat animal overpopulation and the abandonment of unwanted animals, the Es- trie SPA grants an annual discount of $10 on any registration of a sterilized dog or cat,\u201d she says.\u201cTo benefit from this discount, simply provide us with the proof of sterilization that can be obtained from your veterinarian.Registering a pet not only complies with municipal regulations but also ensures the security of the animal, regardless of the situation that it may encounter.Upon registration, the Estrie SPA will provide an identification medallion that pets must wear at all times.This medallion indicates visibly - unlike a microchip - that your pet has a family.The code engraved on each medallion corresponds specifically to a dog or a cat duly registered with the SPA and refers the latter automatically to their contact coordinates.In 2016, some 875 cats and dogs were lost, reported to the SPA Estrie, and returned to their homes thanks to the medallion.Anyone with a pet that has not yet registered or who has recently moved to the Estrie region can register the animal at any time.To do so, simply contact the licensing department of the Estrie SPA at 819-821-4727, Ext.4, or fill out the registration form available at spaestrie.qc.ca.\"It's never too late to do a good deed for the animal you love,\u201d Bergeron concludes.\u201cRegistering your cat or your dog 1s an investment that is well worth the cost.\u201d Although fees vary among municipalities, for the most part they correspond to the following table.Cats: Not-sterilized $35, Sterilized $25 Dogs: Not sterilized $45, Sterilized $35 Sherbrooke appoints two new managers Record staff SHERBROOKE nounced two new appointments in management positions in the Human Resources Department and the Sherbrooke Police Service

student shared, adding that she had thought about the idea as early as last year.\u201cI was also thinking that doing a different cause every year would really help spread support through the community.\u201d Deslauriers\u2019 classmate, Brooklyn Leclerc, said that the idea really resonated with her because of the role that The Pet Connection plays in the local community.\u201cI really liked Audrey-Anne\u2019s idea because everybody likes animals,\u201d Leclerc said.\u201cJen, she really helps (the animals) and takes care of them and really wants to tell the community to adopt her animals.\u201d While the auction has taken place at the high school itself in past years, Hir- shfeld said that this year the event has been moved to the local United Church each, as specified in the 2017 budget.These two parks will provide playgrounds suitable for children aged 2 to 5 and 6 to 12 years old, a pedestrian path, street furniture, and landscaping in harmony with the local environment.In addition, maple trees will be preserved in Thérése Lecomte Park while conifers and deciduous trees of various species will be planted at Roger-Gingues Park.These trees will reflect the mixed forest already present at the back of the park.\"It is important for us to provide a healthy and quality environment for the neighboring families and all citizens of Sherbrooke.Since the adoption of the Parks Master Plan in 2012, two to three new parks have been opened to the public each year, a process that will continue over the next few years, says Mayor Bernard Sévigny.The work will be carried out during the summer of 2017 and should be completed by the beginning of fall.in an effort to build a closer connection with the community.A victim of its location, the art teacher said that the school doesn\u2019t always feel like an accessible location to people even as close by as Lennoxville.\u201cWe changed venues because it is a local Lennoxville business so I thought it would attract more people if we actually do it in town,\u201d Hirshfeld said, saying that she wants the event to develop more of a \u201ccommunity vibe.\u201d Léa Coté, another of the students in the class, said that she is excited about the new location.\u201cIt\u2019s very different; a different cause and a different location,\u201d Coté said.\u201cIt\u2019s a good change, I think.It gives everyone here a chance to take more risk.\u201d Sharing that she wants to work on comics professionally in the future, Côté said that she has been inspired by the auctions and the concentration program to take her work further than she might have otherwise.\u201cI like these events because they help us get used to putting our work out there,\u201d the student said.The \u201cEndless

such as our large health-care corporation adapt and improve is to be involved and vocal.\u201d Help keep massive health institution responsive Hospital and medical-facility merger seeks to maintain and improve care By Scott Stevenson the merger of all public hospitals and medical-care facilities into one massive institution under a single board of directors.The institution has yet to be given a pronounceable name\u2014in French or English\u2014but with more than 17,000 employees and a budget of $1.1 billion, it represents no less than 10% of the Es- trie administrative region\u2019s economy.For users who found themselves on stretchers in the aisles of over-crowded emergency wards in recent weeks, such administrative reform was of little comfort.Change is not usually prompt in large publicly funded institutions, but we need not give up hope yet.\u201cWhile ensuring that access to and the continuity of services and care are maintained, the first year of the CIUSSS de l\u2019Estrie - CHUS was mostly devoted to accomplishing this large transformation and becoming a single institution!\u201d its communications department wrote in a densely worded French summary of its annual report.The merger is part of the Quebec public health care system\u2019s effort to adapt to a rapidly changing clientele and environment: more users, less room to tax the public.The government is trying to make sure service is maintained and improved without spending and borrowing excessively.Several of the 11 goals named in our new local institution\u2019s report involve making it more efficient, while also improving access to front-line care and professional services.Efficiency and bureaucracy New efficiencies are indeed appearing: digitized patient records, a centralized appointment centre with the possibility of email confirmations, and highly responsive specialists, to name a few.But the bureaucracy remains heavy as well.At the CHUS Fleurimont site this week, the receptionist was again re- ] ast year, the Fastern Townships saw quired to fill in four or five pieces of paper for me, while a line of people waited behind, for a regular, repeat ap- pointment\u2014something they do every eight weeks when I register for my ongoing series of appointments.Once I'm past this, the bureaucracy disappears: my wait is always short, the greeting is friendly, service is excellent, and the specialist is always available, helpful, and willing to discuss my health in my first language.I experience the same in other departments as well.In the emergency wards, on the other hand, we would hope that our hospitals plan better than this year for the busy flu and stomach-flu seasons\u2014that they make room for more patients during such peaks.We also hope that wait times decrease more than the 54-minute reduction announced in our institution\u2019s annual report: the average wait on a stretcher in the emergency ward for a bed in hospital or long-term care facility was 13.6 hours in 2015-2016 compared to 14.5 hours in 2014-2015.The report does not mention wait times for seeing a doctor when you arrive at the emergency ward\u2014but we\u2019ve all experienced those, and we know they're too long.Encouraging responsiveness As our new institution continues its change and efforts to improve, it must focus on the responsiveness rather than rigidity, on being up to date not outdated, and sensitive to the client rather than set in its ways.The best way for citizens to help a publicly funded institution such as our large health-care corporation adapt and improve is to be involved and vocal.And one of the best ways for the institution to encourage this is through good com- munications\u2014with plain language, inclusiveness, and openness to its co-founding English-speaking community.Currently, www.santeestrie.qc.ca \u2014 the otherwise user-friendly Web site of our new institution - has no English on it, despite the

production@sherbrookerecord.com The Record Death Death | Death | In Memoriam Gordon BUDNING 1932-2017 It is with much sadness that the family of Gordon Budning mourned his passing on Sunday, February 5, 2017 at the Wales Residence where he recently relocated at the age of 84.Born in 1932, we would have celebrated his 85th birthday February 16th.We would like to thank the staff of the Wales Residence which includes Mrs.Brendalee Piironen and all the Norton3 Nursing Staff with special mention to Brenda, Pam and Joey.You made his last few weeks comforting for our family just knowing he was taken care of with kindness and care.Like our Dad always said, he loved his \"girlfriends\" who made his day shine.Gordon will be joining his belated parents, Anne Bulkis and Harry Budning, and his eldest brother Charles Budning.A place of peacefulness for all.Gordon is survived by his last remaining sibling and sister Evelyn Budning who resides in Florida.He will also be sadly missed by his family which includes the mother of their 3 children and first wife Judy Wilson-Herring, children Steven Budning, Debra Budning Latsky and Gary Budning.Gordon was also a influential father to his son Nicholas Kelbey Budning whom he adopted and helped raise with his second wife Marlene Martin.He will also be missed by cousins, nieces and nephews in Florida, Montreal and Toronto which include Elaine Budning (sister-in-law), Bryan and Cheryl Budning & family (Toronto), Andy and Doreen Budning & family (Toronto), Jeff and Jackie Budning & family (Montreal), Carole Anne and Stuart Budning & family (Montreal), Larry and Pat Hart & family (Florida).He also leaves to mourn his grandchildren Jason Latsky and Robert Latsky.The moments that he shared with family in North Hatley with weekend BBQ's or opening gifts during the holiday celebrations brought a smile to his face and he treasured these moments.Judy and Ashton Herring always opened up their home and hearts to family and made sure Gordon was always a part of the family traditions and celebrations.\u201cFamily are like branches on a tree, we all grow in different directions, yet our roots remain as one.\u201d Gordon was truly a kind hearted person.He always had a story to tell and loved life with all his heart.He had a passion for boating, golfing and sharing special moments with friends listening to Big Bands hits or Jazz.He attended Stanstead College in his youth and was one of the outstanding star football players for the team - he was one of the famous Stanstead \"Bugbee Boys\".He was one of the last remaining students from his graduating year.He loved watching college football and cheering on his favorite team \"Bishop's Gators\" and attended many games to support his love of the sport.Gordon, along with his father Harry Budning were the owners of Budning's Drugstore which was located at 39 Wellington Street North, Sherbrooke, Quebec.He was loved and respected by so many who treasured his wisdom and guidance.After the passing of his father Harry Budning, Gordon rediscovered his passion for music and closed the Pharmacy and relaunched the much-loved Sound and Music Store \"Quad 39\".It was Gordon's passion connecting with people and helping people connect through the love of music.\u201cMusic is the only thing you can love, and it won't break your heart.\u201d He will be remembered for his light hearted spirit and love of life.Funeral Services will be held on Friday, February 10, 2017 at Steve Elkas Funeral Home, 4230 rue Bertrand Fabi, Sherbroooke, QC, J1N 1X6, 819-565-1155, from

newsroom(@sherbrookerecord.com WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2017 Page 9 Bothersome newcomer WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 2017 Dear Annie: I have been involved with a local nonprofit animal activist group for the past 12 years.About three years ago, we had a woman whom I will call \u201cSusan\u201d join our group.Right off the bat, Susan was causing drama and even called the police on a volunteer who changed the password on our adoption site without telling anyone.My gut told me that this wasn\u2019t going to go well.She started off friendly with me, but she slowly developed a lot of anger toward me and has become a bully.I don\u2019t mean to sound conceited, but I think she is jealous of all the work I put into the organization and what I have accomplished.The last straw was when I found out that she had- n\u2019t applied for a grant two years in a row because she didn\u2019t think it was worth her time.This is a grant that we used to apply for every year and get money from every year.She talked to other members and got one to nominate her for president.Fortunately, this didn\u2019t work out.I made clear that I can\u2019t work with Susan and would quit if she were president.Annie, this has caused so much stress and pain to E-mail your social news to classad@sherbrookerecord.com Dear Annie me and my family.I have cried so many tears over this.How can I continue to help the animals and stay with the group and handle being around this woman?\u2014 Frustrated Animal Activist Dear Frustrated: It sounds as if someone needs to take charge of this situation to save the organization.Who better than you?You\u2019ve been involved for years; it\u2019s something you clearly care deeply about.And if even that unqualified drama queen can persuade people to nominate her, then you should be a shoo-in.Turn your frustration into action.Dear Annie: My opinion of your response to \u201cTorn,\u201d whose wife was asked to accompany their widower neighbor on a business trip for three weeks to do household tasks, differs from yours.I would strongly discourage it.The widower, being in his 60s, is not removed from sexual desires.My husband and I are in our 60s and enjoy a rich sex life.This 60-year-old man\u2019s being alone in a condo for three weeks with a 30-year-old woman could lead to all sorts of things, whether planned or not.There are usually housekeeping services available for hire at these facilities, which the widower could take advantage of.The husband could offer to take his wife to that destination for their next vacation.My assessment is that the husband and perhaps you are a bit naive.Would you give the same advice if the widower were in his 30s or 40s?\u2014 J.S.Dear J.S.: I see your point, but I certainly hope you're wrong.I stand by my advice that every relationship is different and that the only two people here who know what's right for the marriage are the husband and wife.If he feels as if he can trust his wife, then he probably can.I'd much rather nurture trust than seeds of doubt; those can only grow into weeds that choke everything in their path.Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearan- nie@creators.com.BURSARY The

Then he cannot be endplayed, and the contract will go down one.After the deal, probably South would congratulate West on his great play, then say that if only West had had the spade four and dummy the spade three, the contract would still have made.Find a safe haven for your future project with our Step-up Bonds.Capital fully guaranteed Interest rates set for ten years Redeemable annually : /eapfohiew RRSP funds ¥ Vested oongsi Wi: 6 srs apic-ausy f= EER TAR pL ÉPARGNE Poe oc QUÉBEC 1 800 463-5229 Monday to Friday, from 8 a.m.to 8 p.m., and Saturdays during February, from 10 a.m.to 4 p.m.www.epq.gouv.qc.ca Épargne ENSEMBLE > et Placements J on fait avancer le Québec Québec rinted and distributed by PressRea P der press {(Zefely PressReader.com = +1604 278 4604 COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW "]
