of ash trees since its arrival.While it has yet to be spotted in Sherbrooke, the metallic green tree-killing machine has infected trees in Granby, and has recently been detected in Quebec City as well.It is likely just a matter of time before Sherbrooke residents will have to take on the emerald ash borer to try and save their trees.The city of Sherbrooke has a plan of action on its website explaining that if found on an ash tree in the area, any other ash trees within a 100 metre radius will be cut down as a preventative measure, and others within 300 metres Will be closely monitored.Roughly 8.9 per cent of the trees on municipal property are ash trees.It is estimated that there are at least 1,600 ash trees on private properties in the area to consider.Since 2012,

three million Canadians still live in poverty?This means that they struggle to meet their basic needs, such as getting food on the table, having inadequate housing or even a lack of shelter due to the increasing bills that are unable to be paid.But poverty is more than just not having enough money.For those living with a low-income or in poverty, it also means not having access to services, facing social exclusion, it can affect their physical and mental health.The Canadian Government wants to hear from youth across the country about the complex issue of poverty as it works on developing a national Poverty Reduction Strategy.They are inviting young people aged 12-24, from coast to coast to coast, to answer one question: How can we reduce poverty in Canada?Show your great idea or

confederation this summer, Pastor Razafy Razafindrakoto of the Eglise Evangelique Luthérienne de la Réconciliation and his community have been getting ready to mark their own special date.Beginning at the end of the month of July, the local Lutherans will be hosting a series of events in celebration of the 500th anniversary of the start of the Protestant reformation.\u201cThere are other churches here that have already marked this anniversary, but now it is the Lutheran Church\u2019s turn,\u201d said Pastor Razafindrakoto, explaining that the famous 95 theses of Martin Luther were originally composed on October 31, 1517.The local church, which has been hosted by the Anglican community at the Church of the Advent on Bowen Street since 2014, has organized a special exhibition on the life and work of Martin Luther on the afternoon of July 29, to be followed later on in the summer by a film screening on the same topic and a special bible camp for youth in mid-au- gust.\u201cMartin Luther is, for us, the most important reformer of the church,\u201d the Pastor said.\u201cI have nothing against the others, but to offer a comparison, why would I go to the leaves that dry up and fall off the tree when the trunk, Martin Luther, is still there?\u201d The exhibition will be shown to parishioners this coming Sunday, but the public presentation only takes place the following Saturday starting at 2 p.m.For that open door event, the church will also host a conference, coffee hour, and a special a capella choir singing songs of the Reformation in addition to offering visitors learning opportunities through a variety of information panels.\u201cWe took the bull by the horns,\u201d Razafindrakoto said, explaining that the local church has been preparing the event for four months, and that the larger Lutheran Church has been getting ready for the 500th anniversary for many years.The pastor described the local Lutheran community as a small one that is seeking to grow.Though now a worship community, the group\u2019s roots are as a resource centre and Christian mission that grew out of local University groups GORDON LAMBIE Pastor Razafy Razafindrakoto of the Eglise Evangelique Luthérienne de la Réconciliation and his community have been getting ready to mark their own special date.going back to 1994.The resource centre, which is based out of the hall of

more than happy with this collective effort, and we would like to thank all the adopters, our staff, our volunteers, and our faithful Facebook community.We owe this tremendous success to the many people who care about animal welfare.\" This activity allowed the SPA Estrie to regain a certain balance, but the team can\u2019t afford to relax.\"Since summer is the peak season at the shelter, we will be working over the next few days to recall the 60 or so cats that are currently being housed outside the shelter with host families.Once sterilized, vaccinated, de- wormed, and de-loused, these cats will head to the adoption room,\" Bergeron says.Public Fundraising Campaign: Another Success! As part of the public fundraising campaign for its new shelter, the Estrie SPA also met another success last Sunday during its Pampering\u201d event held at the Wouf Zone.\"For a first edition, it was a fantastic experience that was greeted with great enthusiasm by the approximately 75 to 100 participants,\" says Berg- eron.\u201cFrom the first minutes of the activity, people were queuing at the

Manager Yves Ver- mette, who was present at Tuesday\u2019s unveiling, called the command post a good compromise that will do the job.\u201cThis has been a request from the police for years, we are happy to see it become a reality in a way that is affordable for the citizens,\u201d Vermette said, adding that the converted Recreational Vehicle was acquired from a Sherbrooke business after a public call for tenders.\u201cThis is not a new vehicle,\u201d McConnell said, putting the total budget for the purchase value, set-up costs, and equipment at $150,000.The vehicle, he specified, is a 2013 model Ford with 28,000km already under its belt.He called the cost of setting up the command post \u201cextremely reasonable\u201d considering the amount of use it will get.Although the interior décor of the vehicle still looks much like a mobile home, the police director pointed out that the beds and some of the benches have been removed to create desk and meeting spaces.A camera system and police radio has also been installed and, he said, a 360 degree camera will soon be set up on the roof of the RV.\u201cIt more than covers our needs,\u201d Mc- Connell said.Printed and distributed by

becomes a \u2018sugar By Ocean Francoeur Special to The Record are delicious of all types can be found at Clough Street Cakes, an at-home business run by Lennoxville baker Annie Duriez.Now Duriez has added \u2018baking a difference\u2019 to her offerings by teaming up with the non-profit organization Icing Smiles Canada.\u201cI got an email out of the blue,\u201d she said.Though Duriez had heard of the foundation, she didn\u2019t know they functioned in Quebec.\u201cI was contacted by Leanne Maksylewich (the administrator for the Quebec and North Eastern Ontario chapter of Icing Smiles) and she told me about this young boy who was just turning 15 with Hunter Syndrome.\u201d The boy is Nathaniel Phaneuf.He lives in Stanstead with his mother, Lisa Bernais, and younger sister, Chelsea.The disease, also called mucopolysacchari- dosis II, or MPS2, is extremely rare.It is caused by a missing or malfunctioning enzyme, which can\u2019t break down certain harmful substances in body, thus creating a buildup.The buildup can cause progressive and permanent damage to organs and mental faculties.Duriez explained that the organization receives requests from families with children suffering from life-threatening diseases, like Nathaniel\u2019s.The organization then contacts a local bakery, asking for a cake donation to the child.\u201cThe idea immediately appealed to me, but I was a little bit uncomfortable\u201d said Duriez, confiding that there was another baker that she knew of in Stanstead, and didn\u2019t want to overstep into her territory, so to speak.\u201cIn the end though the other woman couldn\u2019t do it, and I agreed to take on the cake.\u201d And so, the baker became what Icing Smiles Canada calls a \u2018sugar angel\u2019.Duriez was then put in contact with Nathaniel\u2019s mom.\u201cIt was a lot for her to handle.They ask the children what flavor of cake they want and what they're interested in and ask for design ideas and all sorts of things.But because of the syndrome, er that are as beautiful as they Nathaniel is non-verbal,\u201d explained Duriez.\u201cI walked her through it.Lisa was recently widowed, and Nathaniel and his father loved Nascar.So that\u2019s where I got my inspiration from.\u201d Duriez has been baking for three years now.She said that she had however \u2018lived a number of lives before.\u201d \u201cI reinvent myself every eight or nine years,\u201d she laughed.\u201cI was actually a journalist before, and before that I was a translator.\u201d She learned to bake at culinary school at the Centre de Formation Profes- sionelle 24 Juin, where she took night classes.\u201cI used to take photos of the things I would be making in class and share them on Facebook for my friends and one day my friend asked me to make a cake for her.\u201d Since then, according to Duriez, she has been working her business from home, advertising very little and relying instead on word-of-mouth for clients.Her cakes are extremely personalized; no two are the same.\u201cThey allow me to be creative,\u201d she explained.\u201cNathaniel\u2019s took me six hours to make, but every cake is different.They can be complex and time consuming.It\u2019s a challenge, part of the fun, wondering \u2018how am I going to do this?\u201d The cake is a beautiful two tier confection, decked with the Nascar logo, topped with two checkered flags and written \u201cHappy Birthday Nathaniel\u201d at the bottom in fondant.\u201cLisa told me that Nathaniel was enamored by engines and movement.That\u2019s why I got the idea of making the bottom of the cake look like a tire,\u201d said Duriez.\u201cHe and his dad also loved a particular racer, number 17.I thought of making his car out of fondant, but the amount of detail, and how small it would be, I decided against it.\u201d The racer is Matt Kenseth.Duriez said that she was able to find a miniature toy replica of his car, which provided the perfect finishing touch on the cake.She thought that it proved an even better idea than the edible version she wanted at first, as it would provide Nathaniel ry | LL.COURTESY Annie Duriez working on one of her Clough Street Cakes with a souvenir he could keep.\u201cWhen I delivered the cake Sunday morning, I got to meet them,\u201d she added.\u201cIt made it so much more meaningful.You know, Lisa opened the box and saw THE car on it and she got teary and said \u2018Oh! You found it!\u2019 It was pretty emotional.\u201d \u201cIt was a great experience.I like designing.I got free reign.The only directions were the flavor and the \u2018happy birthday\u2019 at the bottom.\u201d Nathaniel\u2019s mom was over the moon with the cake, which was chocolate flavored.\u201cHis cake was wonderful! And he loved it, he absolutely loved it,\u201d she exclaimed.\u201cWe put sparklers in it.He\u2019s non-verbal but I know he adored the cake, his eyes said it all.\u201d Bernais has asked the Icing Smiles foundation for another cake, this time for her daughter Chelsea, who\u2019s birthday is in May.The organization also offers cakes to the siblings of sick children, given that they are often left in the sidelines.\u201cIt\u2019s just a wonderful idea.I just found out about them six months ago.r lh - 5 0% % \\ \u201c OPERATION | BACKPACK Equipped to Learn \\ Every donation helps to equip a

PAGE 1 city keeping an eye out for the borer.Since 2015, the city has also been testing certain trees to make sure all bases are covered.To further reduce the impact of the destructive bug inevitably bound for the area, Sherbrooke stopped including ash trees in urban landscaping plans and new developments in the area.Lennoxville resident and St.Francis Valley Naturalists\u2019 Club member Brian Talbot has a mature ash tree on his property and is hoping for the best.He has been posting on the club\u2019s facebook page to keep locals informed about the situation, and also contacted the city to find out if any steps should be taken to protect local ash trees.\u201cMy question was about the treatment,\u201d Talbot said.He received a letter in his mailbox from a company offering a treatment to protect his ash tree from an emerald ash borer infestation.He was given a quote (so much per centimetres diameter of the tree) for the treatment, but later found out that the substance the company would use was a neonic insecticide, which is not permit- tions n Sherbrooke.This is now the only place to buy tickets for the luxurious $200,000 vehicle.The RV will be clearly visible on the site and is open for visits, so people have until 8 p.m.this Sunday to buy their ticket.The selection draw for the five finalists will take place on the same day at 9 p.m.in front of the RV.This draw will be carried live on the official Fondation du CHUS Facebook page and the names of the finalists will also be available the next morning on the CHUS Foundation website.These five finalists will then be invited to the final draw which will take place on Wednesday July 26.ted in Sherbrooke.A different treatment, known as TreeAzin, is permitted, but Talbot is hesitant to use it as a method of prevention.\u201cThe treatment is good for two years,\u201d he said, but pointed out it required that holes be drilled in the tree to administer the chemical.He added that if the emerald ash borer doesn\u2019t make an appearance within two years he may need to drill additional holes for another treatment at an additional expense.Talbot also didn\u2019t get a guarantee that his tree would be safe even if he opted to treat it.\u201cIf I get my tree treated and they find ash borer within 100 metres, will I still have to cut it down?\u201d he wondered, also curious about who should pay to take down an infected tree on private property.In the meantime, the city told Talbot that his tree will become a sentinel, so he will be the first to know if there is a risk of infestation in the area.The TreeAzin treatment is supposed to be very effective if caught early, Talbot said.While researching the problem, Talbot said he came across some new bio treatments using wasps and mushroom spoors, hoping they will become available before the borer battle begins so he can keep his ash tree.Louis Gosselin, in charge of media relations for Sherbrooke, said the city is monitoring the situation and will take the necessary steps iff when the emerald ash borer comes to town.Symptoms of an emerald ash borer infestation include loss of leaves at the top of the tree, dead branches, cracks in the bark and exit holes.An increased presence of wood peckers on the tree is also a sign, indicating they are on the hunt for emerald ash borer larvae.ry SE To , \u201c3 M5 5 ZE A = gg

your neighbourhood, it is not \"an opportunity\u201d or a \"plus\" as Robert Daniel, Public Works director, said.When your water and sewer pipes are less than 18 years old and have a lifespan of at least 40 years, how does the installation of new pipes for a developer become a plus?Especially when it compromises the beauty of the neighbourhood and our rights to a peaceful, safe and enjoyable life?I have called Mayor Richard Bur- combe a few times, begging him to come over to see the damage and show me how this is an \"opportunity\" or a \"plus.\" He said he is not an engineer and my pipes would need to be replaced in another twenty or more years anyway.I replied that I may not even live that long.I am 67 now.The mayor has yet to show up.As for the mystery developer, we have never met him but his surveyors were roaming our properties last summer without our permission.I reported the intruders to the Town and was told it had nothing to do with them, and they didn't know the name of the developer.At a council meeting, attended by myself and my neighbour, we were told by Mayor Burcombe that we should have DEAR EDITOR; ur June 2017 fundraiser for the O Camp D\u2019Action Biblique

stepping out of her comfort zone this summer.That means everything from serving root beer floats to kicking burgers at goal in a bid to put the boot to multiple sclerosis.The 34-year-old from Burnaby, B.C., whose mother has MS, is joining forces with A&W to raise money for the MS Society of Canada.According to the MS Society, Canada has the highest rate of multiple sclerosis in the world, with an estimated one in 340 Canadians living with the disease.Now in its ninth year, A&W's \u201cBurgers to Beat MS\u201d campaign is the single biggest fundraiser for the MS Society having already raised close to $10 million.The restaurant chain hopes to raise another $2 million this year.A&W will donate $2 from every Teen Burger sold across Canada on Aug.24, augmented by other fundraising efforts.Sinclair will be making appearances at A&W restaurants in Vancouver on Aug.23 and Toronto and Montreal on Aug.24 as part of the campaign.She will also be featured showing off her soccer skills with burgers in a video on A&W's Facebook page.\u201cBeing able to join this campaign, it's massive for me,\u201d Sinclair said in an interview.\u201cAll along I said I just want to be able to help and hopefully this is a start.Hopefully this is a start to be able to make a difference for those people living with MS.\u201cHopefully years down the road people aren't having to deal with what my family's had to deal with and that's my ultimate goal.\u201d Sinclair's mother Sandi lives in a care home in suburban Vancouver.\u201cShe's doing well,\u201d Sinclair said of her mom.\u201cShe loves the summer, she's out and about every day now.She loves the sun.\u201cShe's proud of the journey that I'm starting.\u201d The fundraising campaign has also united the family, with Sinclair's aunt joining her on the cross-Canada trip.\u201cIt's been amazing to see,\u201d she added.Since announcing in June that she planned to take a front-line role in the fight against MS, Sinclair says she has been amazed by the support she has received via social media and other channels.\u201cThere's so many people that are affected by MS that I had no idea.People that I know who have an aunt or a sister.So the support has been incredible.\u201d While Sinclair is used to the soccer spotlight, she has largely kept to herself away from the field.That has changed, with this new role.C anada soccer captain Christine Sin- \u201cIt's been one of the hardest things I've ever done,\u201d she said.\u201cBecause I am a private person, I keep everything to myself.But for me it's good to step out of my comfort zone.Where I am in my career, I want to be able to make a difference.\u201cYes, I hope that I inspire young kids to play soccer, play sports, to reach and dream big.I hope I've done that over these years.But I don't want it to end when my career eventually does end.I want to have a lasting impact and hopefully this is something that can continue for years and years.\u201d MS is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (brain, spinal cord).The disease attacks myelin _ the protective covering of the nerves, causing inflammation and often damaging the myelin, which is necessary for the transmission of nerve impulses through nerve fibres.The effects are wide-ranging and unpredictable: extreme fatigue, lack of coordination, weakness, tingling, impaired sensation, vision problems, bladder problems, cognitive impairment and mood changes.The cause remains a mystery _ the belief is lifestyle, environmental, genetic and biological factors all contribute.The disease is most commonly diagnosed in people between 15 and 40.Women are three times more likely to develop MS than men.Currently there is no cure.\u201cBurgers to Beat MS started with a small group of A&W operators wanting to make a difference,\u201d Paul Hollands, chairman and CEO of A&W Food Services of Canada Inc., said in a statement.\u201cEvery year it has grown, making a real difference in helping those affected by this debilitating disease.\u201d Sinclair has carried the Maple Leaf at the Olympics, represented her country 259 times, scored 168 goals and led Canada to back-to-back Olympic bronze medals.The Portland Thorns star was recently appointed to the Order of Canada, an honour she says that still leaves her near speechless.\u201cTo be honoured by your country for what you've done over the course of your career is pretty remarkable,\u201d she said.\u201cI think it just goes to show the progress our team has made.We're now in the forefront of sports in this country.We have an impact on people's lives and we're making a difference in continuing to improve and grow the sport.\u201cIt's been an honour to be a part of that journey.To be recognized (with the Order of Canada), I don't know what to say.\u201d _ For more information visit www.BurgersToBeatMS.ca eT retirer THE ALL NEW 2017 HAYON CRUZE MSRP: $25,725.Rebate: $5,487.Spe-*- + 2017 TRAX MSRP:

North had three choices: three no- trump (which would be a very unusual selection), four spades with a slam-un- suitable hand, or a control-bid with slam interest.Here, North should have bid CROSSWORD four clubs.Yes, the three low hearts were worrying, but the rest of his hand was excellent.South would have control-bid four hearts, and North could have launched (Roman Key Card) Blackwood before signing off in six spades.Even after a heart lead, six spades is desirable.Declarer wins with his ace and immediately takes dummy\u2019s three top diamonds to discard his heart losers.Then he draws trumps as quickly as possible.Across 1 Lower in price 5 Try 10 Nutmeg spice 14 Actor La Salle 15 Crams, with \u201cup\u201d 16 Sea of __: Black Sea arm 17 Innate talent 20 \u201cWicked Game\u201d singer Chris 21 Shuttle flight phase 22 Broadcaster\u2019s transmission to affiliated stations 25 \u201cMy gal\u201d of song 26 Carpentry joints 31 Barbecue accessory 35 \u201cI Put a Spell on You\u201d singer Simone 38 Full range 39 Sharp-smelling air pollutant 42 Writer of tales with talking animals 43 Dental alternatives to pastes 44 Angers 45 Fireplace inserts 47 Springfield presidential library nickname 49 Hardly any time at all 56 Legendary Rhine siren 59 Cruller coating 60 With \u201cThe,\u201d Tchaikovsky work that ends with \u201cWaltz of the Flowers\u201d 63 Physics particle 64 French term of endearment 65 List component 66 Tiny sound 67 County near London 68 Mil.medals Down S|CIR|AM MIA|C|S N|I|[N|A| 1 Russian Revolution W|H|A|M[OR QU|L|E|E} PB/R|A|T] leader 2 Backspace, perhaps A|E|JT|N|A CI|O|L|E A|1|D|A 3 Occupy, as a desk G|RIE|IE[N|C|H|E|E|S|E S|I|R Em valley, Calin.1560 Winter Olympics site SIA[R|A BIA[L||HIA] 5 Sched.uncertainty DIE[B[TFYAICIKEIW| I IM[PEEY 6 Big name in ISPs |IMJAJYR ES |HIE|SK AZ |JO|JOJE|Y 7 dl down) nical shelter MI l]T C|H|A|I|T|E|A U|N|A 9 Regard highly E|ITIHIE[REIS|T|A|NF IS|N|I [P| 10 Damon of \u201cWe s[K|11|SEYH|R|EL Fa|D/D/s| Bovght a Zoo | \u2014 11 Blue sky color, in TIA|IP|E|S|U|P TIR|O[N Calais BIRI|O PIIIEIC|EIOIFICIA|K|E| 12 Showman Buffalo Bill | 13 Morn\u2019s counterpart | [O[N][S T|R|O|D AITIR[TIA 18 Bygone theaters R|IA|G|E O[R|S|O G|U|L|L|S| 19 Spectrum shade D|R[E|WRAR[Y[AINLIE[M|O|T|E]| 23Jingled 24 __ light: filming tool 27 Roll along the runway 28 Qatari ruler 29 Far from polite 30 Some Fr.martyrs 31 Unexpected obstacle 32 Harbor sight 33 \u201c deal!\u201d 34 Run leisurely 36 Storm direction: Abbr.37 Dwight\u2019s opponent 40 Swiss army knife tool 41 Copyright pg.ID 46 Comfort in grief 48 Flan ingredients 50 Computer repair experts 51 Backpacking activities 52 Transmission lubricant 53 Milks, in Marseilles 54 Tenochtitlan native 55 Abounds (with) 56 Minstrel\u2019s instrument 57 Plains native 58 Law gp.that now only uses horses for ceremonial events 60 Go out for a bit?61 Ode preposition 62 \u201cToy Story\u201d dinosaur 1 [2 [3 T4 5 16 17 [8 [9 10 [11 [12 [13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 2?23 [24 M 25 26 [27 [28 [29 [30 31 132 |33 134 35 36 [37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 JT 48 \u2014 50 |51 52 [53 [54 |55 59 61 [62 63 64 65 66 67 68 Printed and distributed by PressReader PressReader.com + +1604 278 4604 COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW press [{Lele[4 Page 10 WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 2017 production@sherbrookerecord.com The Record CELEBRITY CIPHER by Luis Campos Celebrity Cipher cryptograms are created from quotations by famous people, past and present.Each letter in the cipher stands for another.\u201cLZ ULXVBWYEM YUM OY ZMYVEA, RWG BF YGOSV L JOF CWF OCBWFX FOHVX OFX RLGV GUV UVOXY BAA ALYU.\u201d \u2014 EOWCLY ZVGJOEA Previous Solution: \u201cDenying the lines on our faces makes a comment about age and wisdom | don\u2019t care to make.\u201d \u2014 Debra Winger TODAY'S CLUE: H sjende H REALITY CHECK LOOK AT ALL OF US KEN DOLLS WE HAVE MET ROSEXUAL KEN.CACTUS cOOLER KEN: DAD-BOD KEN.SUPER STRIPES KEN PLAID ON POINT KEN.MAN-BUN KEN- BETWEEN ALL OF US, WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE BARBIE HAPPY!

Modern rhymes for modern times Make for very scattered wedding chimes Vows are recitals of outer space expectations As life becomes an assortment of incantations.G.L.Brown Dear Annie I'm then sucked into my phone and watching videos again.Every time I try to address the issue with my therapist, I become too embarrassed and change the subject.I want to help myself because I've become so depressed about these obsessions, but I'm just not sure what to do.\u2014 Obsessed and Tired Dear Obsessed: Celebrity \u201cobsessions\u201d and fanaticism have been a normal part of adolescence since the advent of mass media.But the internet has made celebs seem closer to us than ever.We not only can spend endless hours reading up on the details of their lives but also may even get a chance to interact with them on social media.This is even truer for internet celebrities, who inherently have close relationships to their fan bases.With this sort of access, it\u2019s easy to see how a young person could get carried away.But there is so much good news in your letter.You have a thorough understanding of your issue.You realize it\u2019s impacting your life negatively.You want to change.And you\u2019re in therapy \u2014 which brings me to my ultimate point.Talk to your therapist about this.Knowing the full details of your life and background, he or she can help address the underlying problems that are driving your obsessive behavior.And I prom- 1se your therapist won\u2019t judge you.Dear Annie: This is not a question, only a comment.I have read advice columns in the paper for 40 years.In that time, I have never seen advice given that is as appropriate and impressive as yours.It is without a doubt the best column in the paper.Thank you! \u2014 Dale B.Dear Dale B.: Thank you for making my day.It\u2019s an honor to have this platform, and I'll keep doing my best not to disappoint.I hope to keep you as a reader for years to come.Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.SUDOKU DIFFICULTY RATING: # #535 3¢ 9 3 8 4 9 2 o \u2014 N > -\u2014 oo a0 4 oO 9 2 7/19 © 2017 Dist.by Andrews McMccel Syndication for UFS | PREVIOUS SOLUTION 915|/1/8/2 4|3/7/6 8|3|4|7|9 6/2 5 4 meg CIEE ERIE] EIEAE: es must contain the 1 9 612) 4,7 5 8/3 eee ces 9 |l4/8|/5|316 9|4/2/7 3/17|/2|1|8/5|6/9/4 714 3|6|5 2|8 1/9 516 8/9/7 1|4/3 2 211|9|4 3 8/7 615 Printed and distributed by PressReader press {Jeff PressReader.com © +1604 278 4604 COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW Page 12 WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 2017 newsroom(@sherbrookerecord.com The Record 5 = SYNCS 3 FOCREAGS VAR HANC 2750 ME COBOOS Se ENGINE o 0 y Ya ~ Aa\u201d \u201ci x EAN Ne ERY CE ORD), a Bad Me ad RAY Manny Vehicles may be shown with optional equipment.Limited time offers.Offers only available to qualified retail customers on approved credit (OAC) from Ford Credit.Offers exclude license, fuel fill charge, insurance, registration, specific duty on new tires, a maximum RDPRM fee of $47 plus third-party service fee of $4, GST and QST taxes.All prices and rebates are based on Manufacturer\u2019s Suggested Retail Price.See your Ford Dealer for complete details or call the Ford Customer Relationship Centre at 1-800-565-3673.\u201cFord Employee Pricing (\u201cEmployee Pricing\u201d) is available from July 1, 2017 to October 2, 2017 (the \u201cProgram Period\u201d), on the purchase or lease of most new 2017/2018 Ford vehicles (excluding all chassis cab, stripped chassis, and cutaway body models, F-150 Raptor, F-650/F-750, Shelby® GT350/GT350R Mustang, Ford GT, and Focus RS).Employee Pricing refers to A-Plan pricing ordinarily available to Ford of Canada employees (excluding any Unifor-/CAW-negotiated programs).The new vehicle must be delivered or factory-ordered during the Program Period from your participating Ford Dealer.Employee Pricing is not combinable with CPA, GPC, CFIP, Daily Rental Allowance and A/X/Z/D/F-Plan programs.**Until October 2, 2017, receive $4,035 in total Ford Employee Price adjustments with the purchase or lease of a new 2017 Escape Titanium 4WD.Total Ford Employee Price adjustments are a combination of Employee Price adjustment of $3,035 and delivery allowance of $1,000.Employee Price adjustments are not combinable with CPA, GPC, CFIP, Daily Rental Allowance and A/X/Z/D/F-Plan programs.Delivery allowances are not combinable with any fleet consumer incentives.\u201cOffer only valid from July 1, 2017 to October 2, 2017 (the \u201cOffer Period\u201d) to resident Canadians with an eligible Costco membership on or before June 30, 2017.Receive $500 towards the purchase or lease of a new 2017 Ford Focus, Fiesta, C-MAX, and $1,000 towards all other 2017 Ford models (excluding F-150 Raptor, Shelby® GT350/GT350R Mustang, Ford GT, cutaway/chassis cab and F-650/F-750) and 2018 Fusion, Flex, F-150 (excluding F-150 Raptors) model (each an \u201cEligible Vehicle\u201d).Limit one (1) offer per each Eligible Vehicle purchase or lease, up to a maximum of two (2) separate Eligible Vehicle sales per Costco Membership Number.Offer is transferable to persons domiciled with an eligible Costco member.Applicable taxes calculated before offer amount is deducted.Some driver input required.Requires having available Intelligent Access key on your person.®Registered trademark of Price Costco International, Inc.used under license.©2017 Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited.All rights reserved.Printed and distributed by PressRea + ORIGINAL COPY » ORIGINAL COPY * ORIGINAL COPY + ORIGINAL COPY » ORIGINAL COPY » ORIG der press reader PressReader.com + +1 604 278 4604 COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW "]
