MICHAEL BORIERO By Michael Boriero Local Journalism Initiative Nine conservation groups gathered in Rougemont Tuesday to announce the creation of a coalition, which aims to protect biodiversity in Quebec\u2019s Monteregian Hills, a landscape that stretches through Montreal, the Monteregie and the Eastern Townships.According to Chrystiane Collette, president of the Association du Mont Rougemont, this has been in the works for several years.Although each organization is unique, they share similar challenges and concerns, Collette explained, which led them to bond together.\u201cWe want to be part of the decision- makers, we want to be at the table where the decisions are made, not just trying to have in?uence and everything.If there is a decision that has to be made, or there is a project, we want to be there and talk with them at the same level,\u201d she said.Collette told The Record that rather than tackling these issues as small individual organizations, with complaints often falling through the cracks of bureaucracy, the coalition will now carry more weight when it ?les a report or speaks out about environmental problems.There is only one coordinator in her association, Collette said, and they need to dig through government Rapid testing in schools not so rapid CONT\u2019D ON PAGE 3 PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER PressReader.com +1 604 278 4604

SUNDAY: MIX OF SUN AND CLOUD HIGH 23 LOW 10 Hand in Hand Workshop Series on Borderline Personality Disorder Mental Health Estrie (MHE) is pleased to announce an upcoming series of free virtual workshops on Borderline Personality Disorder.BPD is characterized by emotional dysregulation, increased sensitivity and heightened reactivity.This often leads to strained interpersonal relationships which can have a negative impact both for the person living with these challenges and their loved ones.Accessing reliable and accurate information on deescalating reactions in addition to increasing understanding can be dif?cult \u2013 particularly for BPD.At MHE we have found Valerie Porr, M.A.to be one of the most compassionate and reliable sources of information.Her award-winning book \u201cOvercoming Borderline Personality Disorder: A Family Guide for Healing and Change\u201d is often on loan from our library, and her internationally renowned work advocating and educating within the BPD community has been extensive.When Valerie discovered the lack of information and effective treatment options, she set out to champion this cause.In 1994, she founded a not-for- pro?t organization called Treatment and Research Advancements for Borderline Personality Disorder (TARA4BPD).Based in New York City, this organization advocates for further research, provides support, guidance, and insight for those living with BPD and their support systems, assists with the development of effective coping skills, and operates a help line (1-888-4-TARABPD) providing information and referrals.We are pleased to announce that Valerie Porr has generously agreed to work with MHE to present a virtual workshop series titled \u201cUnderstanding Borderline Personality Disorder\u201d.For three Thursday evenings in a row (Sept 16, 23, 30), we will have the pleasure of hosting her as a guest speaker while she shares information, provides techniques to increase compassion and communication, and responds to your questions live.The ?rst of these sessions, titled \u201cReframing Borderline Personality Disorder by Understanding the Basic Neurology of BPD\u201d, will focus on the biological differences that have been observed in those who have received this diagnosis.This will provide a basis for understanding what BPD is and how it manifests.Once this ground work has been established we will move onto the second session titled, \u201cWhat Can You do to Help Someone with BPD?\u201d.This session will focus on reducing triggers, developing compassion, and repairing relationships that have been damaged by miscommunication.The third session, \u201cWhat is Mentalization and How Can it Help You and Your Loved One Impacted by BPD?\u201d explores and provides family-based training on this effective technique for coping with BPD.The series will be free of charge, English, open to all, and available virtually.Although it is not necessary to attend all three sessions, it is recommended in order to garner the best overall understanding of BPD.These sessions will be relevant to anyone struggling with emotional dysregulation and those who care for them, regardless of diagnosis.We hope to see you there!

and Family (2014- 2018) announced Tuesday afternoon that he will run for mayor of Sherbrooke.Fortin said he made the decision to enter the race so that Sherbrooke can regain its momentum, its strong voice and its in?uence in municipal affairs in Quebec, and to put power back in the hands of those who are accountable to the population.He will run his campaign under the theme \u201cLet\u2019s bring Sherbrooke together\u201d \u201cIn the last few days, I have felt a huge wave of con?dence and love from people from all walks of life asking me to take the plunge into the race,\u201d Fortin commented.\u201cWith the experience I have, the knowledge of Sherbrooke\u2019s ?les and especially the passion for our City, I am sure I am ready for this new challenge,\u201d he said.ARCHIVES/GORDON LAMBIE Former MNA Luc Fortin announced Tuesday that he will enter the mayoral race in Sherbrooke.grants in order to fund the position.The rest of the organization is made up of volunteers, which is why she wants more funding from all levels of government.\u201cThese mountains, they have been more and more secluded because of the different municipalities around that are overdeveloping [\u2026] we need a corridor, a path, that they will continue to have this biodiversity,\u201d said Collette.She tried to implement supervised trails in Rougemont, but the area is mostly privately owned, and these owners were unwilling to allow people onto their land out of fear of theft, and property damage.It also costs a lot of money to maintain a fully supervised trail.\u201cWe were talking about $150,000 or more just to implement it and then there is the yearly fees, the costs of having somebody because you cannot rely on somebody to do it without any pay, you cannot rely on that on a regular basis,\u201d said Collette.When it comes to dealing with environmental protection, it is usually passed down from the federal level, to the provincial, and then ponied off to municipal governments, who are always handcuffed due to high costs, and nearly non-existent resources, she added.Collette said that the Nature Conservancy of Canada has also been collecting land for many years to protect the country\u2019s wildlife.However, while she is optimistic about environmental protection, she believes it needs to start with educating the youth population.\u201cIt\u2019s a very long process.It\u2019s the education that will change it.I believe that if we work together like today getting the expertise and trying to make sure that we have concrete actions done that will stay for generations to come, I believe that we can do it,\u201d Collette said.Kim Marineau, a biologist and vice-president of Éco-corridors laurentiens, noted that privately- owned property, promoters, and residential development all factor into the destruction of natural sites and landmarks in Quebec.And it will impact the ?ght against climate change.\u201cIf governments don\u2019t say \u2018we want to have more conservation in Quebec, in the South of Quebec\u2019, we will lose biodiversity and all of the environmental services that we need as humans; water, air, and everything that is important for agriculture,\u201d said Marineau.She believes in the coalition\u2019s power to change the dynamics between conservation groups and governments in the province.They needed to stop taking action separately, she explained, and there was an urgent need for collaboration, especially in Southern Quebec.There is also prolonged dif?culty getting through to the general public.It\u2019s hard for people to comprehend that there could be irreversible damage to the environment in just 10 or 20 years, she continued, and politicians are not moving fast enough to address the issue.\u201cIt will be very dif?cult because we will lose, we will lose a lot of comfort for everybody.We will need more houses that are smaller, less resources, less possibility with transportation because fuel will be so expensive, so I\u2019m very scared,\u201d said Marineau.The coalition includes Les Amis de la Montagne, Fondation du Mont- Saint-Bruno, Centre de la Nature du Mont Saint-Hilaire, the Centre d\u2019interprétation du milieu écologique du Haut-Richelieu (CIME), Association du Mont Rougemont, Nature Cantons- de-L\u2019Est, Société de conservation du Mont Brome, Conservation de la nature

By: Clara Schultz and Maggie Severs This fall, Townshippers\u2019 Association is thrilled to host its annual Townshippers\u2019 Festival, which celebrates the region\u2019s English culture and heritage.This year\u2019s festival will take place online and we invite you to participate with us virtually from Sept 5 to Oct 2.Week one Townshippers Making History During the ?rst week of this year\u2019s festival, from Sept 5 to 11, we highlighted some of the historical in?uences that helped to shape the Eastern Townships region.Rachel Lambie from the Lac-Brome Museum spoke to us about Brome County inventor Reginald Fessenden (1886-1932) and the crucial role that he played in the evolution of communication: he was the ?rst person to send the human voice over the radio.As we listened to Rachel Lambie over the wireless video (a byproduct of Fesseden\u2019s inventions), we knew we had Fessenden to thank for making Lambie\u2019s lecture possible! More information about this remarkable man is available at the Lac-Brome Museum.A link to a recording of this lecture is also available through Townshippers\u2019 Association.To receive the link and access the lecture throughout the month of September, email: msevers@ townshippers.org.Week two A Taste for the Townships Winemaking is becoming more and more common in the Eastern Townships and there are many beautiful vineyards scattered throughout the area offering delicious local products.For this reason, we will be offering a wine-tasting workshop on Wednesday, Sept 15.This workshop will be led by Heather Ancliffe, Project Manager for Townshippers\u2019 Association\u2019s Inclusive Mentorship Program and an experienced WSET 2 (Wine & Spirit Education Trust, one of the world\u2019s leading providers of wine education) certi?ed wine professional.Heather\u2019s wine-tasting 101 workshop will help you to develop or re?ne your wine-tasting techniques and abilities so you can better enjoy the delicious wines our region has to offer.In week two, Townshippers will also be invited to put their knowledge to the test in a lively trivia night hosted by Townshippers\u2019 Association\u2019s own Ed Humphrey.The trivia night will take place on Thursday, Sept 16 on Zoom.Week three The Townships Life The third week of the festival will celebrate the beauty of our region and help to reignite your passion for nature!

TOWNSHIPPERS\u2019 ASSOCIATION Townships\u2019 gentri?cation makes farming dif?cult here Small farming in the Townships and elsewhere enjoyed new hope that may now be drying up like our surface and artesian wells this summer.That new hope was driven by the strong voices of recent small-farm pioneers like Jean-Martin Fortier and Maude-Hélène Desroches in Saint- Armand and Joel Salatin in Virginia.Fortier made the broadfork\u2014 and especially market gardening\u2014 widespread in the Townships through his 2012 book and its 2014 translation The Market Gardener.And Salatin made the chicken tractor\u2014and especially a small-scale, direct-to-consumer mixed farming revival\u2014?xtures across rural North America.But both of those voices now carry a less promising undertone to those who are truly out there in the ?eld.Fortier\u2019s advice was so popular that the Townships saw a proliferation of market gardeners.\u201cSome businesses paid the price,\u201d wrote agronomist and former director of the Financière Agricole du Québec, Alain Perras, in July for my farm\u2019s business plan.\u201cAfter their launch, it became dif?cult to enter a market that had started to become saturated; they had to abandon their project.\u201d While those farmers were sweating it out in their gardens and at farmers\u2019 markets, Fortier changed his career considerably, becoming the star in a farm reality TV show, \u201cLes Fermiers,\u201d ostensibly to show the rest of us how to do it.The difference now was that his new public farm project was clearly backed by the millions of dollars the rest of us needed to succeed.Salatin\u2019s credibility, meanwhile, was soundly dressed down by Tom Philpott in a November 2020 Mother Jones article \u201cJoel Salatin\u2019s Unsustainable Myth.\u201d \u201cWhile Joel Salatin deserves credit for his ingenious management of this land, his recipe for success is not as easy to follow as he insists,\u201d Philpott writes.\u201cFew aspiring farmers have the advantage of inheriting a swath of ?at terrain well-tended by the previous generation\u2014or have the resources to make crucial investments.\u201d Philpott also targets the racial bias and privilege of white North American farmers making a living on land taken from Indigenous peoples and kept away from Blacks\u2014a problem not at all foreign to us in the Townships.Now, we\u2019re also driving land values out of reach.Farm economists in the Townships, including my chartered accountant, have recently remarked that land values have risen to the point that you can\u2019t pay for them by farming.The price of food relative to the price of land does not allow farmers to make a living in the Townships through food production alone.Those who do so today are already established; they\u2019re likely very large or have an off-farm income to support them; or they already had a lot of money.As our rural economy stands, farming doesn\u2019t have a promising future in any region where too many dreamy-eyed land-aspirants clamour for ?eld and forest just to dabble in and gaze upon from home-of?ce windows.Those who want to make a quick or easy buck speculating on rural land are even more problematic.Everyone deserves peaceful and respectful access to the countryside and nature.But farmers need to make a living too.And we all need healthy food at affordable prices.It will take more than well-spoken, charismatic farmers, who\u2019ve got their manure together, like Fortier and Salatin, to solve our problems in affordable farming and healthy food.Scott Stevenson farms and writes at his home in Newport, Quebec.Scott Stevenson Farm News Review Land values outweigh promise of new small-farm techniques PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER

People\u2019s Party of Canada Natael Bureau, New Democratic Party Richmond-Arthabaska candidate pro?les By Gordon Lambie There are a total of seven candidates running for election in the Richmond-Arthabaska riding, including representatives from the Bloc Quebecois, Liberal Party, Conservative Party, New Democratic Party, Peoples Party, Free Party, and the Rhinoceros Party.The riding is made up of the municipalities of Saint-Denis-de- Brompton, Saint-François-Xavier-de- Brompton, Melbourne, Kingsbury, Richmond, Cleveland, Ulverton, Windsor, Vol-joli, Saint-Claude, Danville, Asbestos, Saint-Georges- de-Windsor, Saint-Camille, Wotton, Kingsey Falls, Sainte-Séraphine, Sainte-Clothilde-de Horton, Saint- Samuel, Saint-Albert, Sainte- Élizabeth-de-Warwick, Warwick, Tingwick, Saint-Rémi-de-Tingwick, Saint-Adrien, Saint-Joseph-de-Ham- Sud, Saints-Martyr-Canadiens, Ham-Nord, Notre-Dame-de-Ham, Chesterville, Sainte-Hélène-de-Chester, Saint-Christophe-d\u2019Arthabaska, Saint- Norbert-d\u2019Arthabaska, Victoriaville, Saint-Valère, Saint-Rosaire, Sainte- Anne-du-Sault, Daveluyville, Maddington, and Saint-Louis-de- Blandford.It has had only three Members of Parliament since its creation 24 years ago; Progressive- Conservative turned independent André Bachand, who is now a part of the provincial government in the area, from 1997 to 2004.André Bellavance, now the Mayor of Victoriaville, represented the Bloc Quebecois riding from 2004 to 2014, then sat as an independent for the last year.Alain Rayes, former Mayor of Victoriaville, was elected under the Conservative banner in 2015 and was re-elected in 2019.Comparing this campaign to his past efforts, Rayes shared that the 2021 election has been a strange one, where traditional modes of campaigning are either more challenging or off the table entirely due to health restrictions.With less than a week left before the election, the incumbent said that he has barely seen any of his competition and has encountered many citizens confused or frustrated by the fact that there is an election going on at all.Asked about what he sees as the priorities for the region, Rayes listed three main items that he and his colleague Luc Berthold have gotten built into the Conservative party\u2019s commitments for Quebec.The ?rst of these is the expansion of highway 955 between highway 20 and the community of Saint-Albert to four lanes.The second is a $100 million regional development fund to help support former mining towns in ?nding new vocations.The third is an $11 million investment in the local recreation and tourism industry meant for existing enterprises like the programs focused on Abenaki culture at Mount Ham and the Richmond- Melbourne cross-country ski club, among others.When The Record spoke with Rayes in the lead up to the 2019 election, the candidate was his party\u2019s Quebec Lieutenant, and some of those running against him argued that his being shuf?ed out of that position in 2020 was a sign that the MP and the region had fallen out of favour with his party.The candidate challenged the idea that the shift was a demotion, however, pointing out that he was given charge of the shadow cabinet positions on Canadian Heritage, Of?cial Languages & Quebec Economic Development instead.He referred back to these positions when asked how he responds to the concerns in the English community at the moment surrounding new federal and provincial language bills C-32 and Bill 96, saying that his role put him in closer contact with representatives of the English-speaking community.Despite that claim of closeness, however, Rayes said that his party does not intend to interfere with any provincial bill.Although he acknowledged the importance of ensuring services for minority groups, the Conservative candidate also said that he feels the situation of French- speaking people outside of Quebec is more fragile than that of English- speaking people within the province.Liberal candidate Alexandre Desmarais declined an interview with The Record, and NDP candidate Nataël Bureau never responded to any of several attempts to make contact.Diego Scalzo, the former Mayor of Warwick, is running for the Bloc Quebecois in the riding because of his background as a Quebec sovereigntist and because he sees the party\u2019s role in parliament as being \u201cnoble\u201d due to its focus on raising issues without ever seeking to be in charge.Scalzo told The Record that he believes Quebec and Canada would be great friends if the two were separate countries but argued that the former being a province currently wastes a lot of political energy on in?ghting.Asked about what he sees as the main issues for his riding, Scalzo said that the environment is his number one focus.He called it \u201cnonsense\u201d to not recognize climate change as a serious problem and argued that the environmental initiatives already in place in the riding could serve as an example for other parts of the country.He also noted the signi?cance of the labour shortage in the region and said that he considers immigration to have an important role to play in resolving that issue.The Bloc Quebecois candidate said that he is conscious of the challenges faced by English communities in rural Quebec and argued that more needs to be done to bring English and French-speaking communities together.He said that from his experiences working side-by-side with English speaking people in the region, he understands that the impression some people have of a wealthy English elite in the province is out of date and fully grasps the dif?culties faced by a \u201cminority within a minority.\u201d Both the candidate for the People\u2019s Party of Canada, Nadine Fougeron, and the candidate for the recently formed Free Party Canada, Louis Richard, framed their campaigns around opposition to the health measures that have been put in place as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic.Fougeron called stopping the implementation of the vaccine passport program her number one priority and a key step to re-launching the national economy.Asked what she intends to do, as a representative of the federal government, to put an end to the provincially mandated passport system, Fougeron claimed that the system is also in place at the federal level and argued that that a federal change would trickle down to the provincial level.Asked about her other priorities, Fourgeron told The Record that she plans to take the time to get to know the issues of the people in her riding after she gets elected.Richard said that his party is focused on stopping what he referred to as the \u201cexperimental\u201d vaccine and on implementing a system of direct democracy in the country, although he was not able to say more about exactly what was meant by that.He put an emphasis on \u201cgiving a voice to the people,\u201d calling himself the \u2018work with the people guy.\u2019 The Richmond-Arthabaska riding also has a candidate from the satirical protest-vote option, the Rhinoceros Party of Canada, which operates under the slogan \u201cAs we\u2019re voting for clowns, choose the funniest!\u201d Marjolaine Delisle\u2019s campaign, championed by her puppet \u2018campaign manager\u2019 Austin Touqueroche, has included \u2018commitments\u2019 like building a third bridge between the two bridges across the river in Richmond as an \u2018environmental measure.\u2019 PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER PressReader.com +1 604 278 4604 ORIGINAL COPY

grandchildren safe and wouldn\u2019t knowingly put them at risk.Maybe that\u2019s why some ignore or deny the climate crisis.It\u2019s easier than admitting that, by our actions, we\u2019re condemning those we love to an increasingly uncertain future.A new UNICEF report and \u201cChildren\u2019s Climate Risk Index\u201d show that almost half the world\u2019s children \u2014 one billion \u2014 live in countries where they face \u201cextremely high risk\u201d from \u201cclimate and environmental hazards, shocks and stresses.\u201d This, the report says, \u201cis creating a water crisis, a health crisis, an education crisis, a protection crisis and a participation crisis.It is threatening children\u2019s very survival.In all these ways, it is infringing on children\u2019s rights \u2014 as outlined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.\u201d It\u2019s another reason why young people are again taking to the streets and social media to demand climate action instead of enjoying more carefree activities.We\u2019ve failed them and continue to fail them.Much of the blame falls on the fossil fuel and automobile companies and their supporters in government and media \u2014 who have long had the knowledge and power to make changes but instead intentionally worked against even the smallest efforts to address human-caused climate disruption.UNICEF launched the report, The Climate Crisis Is a Child Rights Crisis: Introducing the Children\u2019s Climate Risk Index, in collaboration with Fridays for Future on the third anniversary of the youth-led international climate strike movement.(The next global strike is September 24.) The index categorizes risk factors under two pillars: \u201cExposure to climate and environmental shocks and stresses\u201d and \u201cChild vulnerability.\u201d The former includes water scarcity; riverine and coastal ?ooding; tropical cyclones; vector-borne diseases; heat waves; and air, water and soil pollution.The latter includes child health and nutrition; education; water, sanitation and hygiene; and poverty, communication assets and social protection.The study found that almost every child on Earth is exposed to at least one major climate or environmental hazard, shock or stress, and that most are exposed to two or three overlapping risks.The one billion children who \u201cface a deadly combination of exposure to multiple climate and environmental shocks with a high vulnerability due to inadequate essential services\u201d live in 33 countries, mostly in Africa.Those countries account for less than nine per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions, while the 10 highest- emitting nations are responsible for 70 per cent.\u201cClimate change is deeply inequitable,\u201d UNICEF executive director Henrietta Fore said.\u201cWhile no child is responsible for rising global temperatures, they will pay the highest costs.The children from countries least responsible will suffer most of all.But there is still time to act.Improving children\u2019s access to essential services, such as water and sanitation, health, and education, can signi?cantly increase their ability to survive these climate hazards.\u201d The long-term solution is to radically reduce emissions starting immediately and get to net zero before 2050 to keep Earth from heating more than 1.5 C over pre-industrial levels.But we\u2019ve stalled so long that much of the heating is already locked in and won\u2019t reverse for decades, which, as the report states, will be too late for many children.\u201cUnless we invest heavily in adaptation and resilience of social services for the 4.2 billion children born over the next 30 years, they will face increasingly high risks to their survival and well-being,\u201d it states.\u201cAny adaptations must be based on a careful assessment of both the type and nature of the climate and environmental hazard, shock or stress, as well as the degree to which children are vulnerable.\u201d The report outlines many solutions, including improving access to water, sanitation and hygiene services, and investing in education, health, nutrition, protection and poverty reduction.It also makes clear that we must listen to our children, \u201cnot by paying lip service, or through tokenistic engagements, but with the scale and force that is commensurate with the magnitude of the issue at hand.\u201d We can\u2019t stand by and let children suffer for our behaviours.From supporting climate strikes to voting as if their future depends on it \u2014 because it does \u2014 we must do all we can today to ensure they have a safe and livable tomorrow.David

respond to an answer given by the person presiding over the meeting.At school boards, it is the chairperson.It\u2019s been my experience for over 20 years that\u2019s the way it generally works - even if it\u2019s a Zoom meeting.When the present president of the QCGN, Marlene Jennings, was a trustee at the English Montreal School Board last year and chaired Zoom meetings, I was always allowed to add a supplementary comment or question.On Sept.11, 2021, I was the only \u2018public\u2019 at the English Montreal School Board special meeting, which primarily dealt with the controversial subject of Bill 96 and Quebec nationhood.The boards\u2019 intention was to rescind a 6-page unanimously adopted resolution.I submitted my questions in advance as requested, received answers from the chair but was not given the opportunity to respond.I really wanted to follow up to do justice to the subject and, by extension, inform the public.The right of reply component at meetings must always be available.It is very important because clari?cations can be made and misunderstandings cleared up.It is democracy at its ?nest.CHRIS EUSTACE MONTREAL PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER

who replaced the ?red John Tortorella.McCarthy is a former NHL defenseman who was promoted from the Cleveland Monsters, the team\u2019s American Hockey League af?liate, for which he was an assistant

pushing you to participate in something that isn\u2019t in your best interest.It\u2019s up to you to pursue what makes you happy.WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2021 Do you turn this way or that?By Phillip Alder At the Tokyo Olympics last month, you probably saw some gymnasts and divers twisting and turning.They always knew what they were doing.Bridge declarers usually can control the play but sometimes have to guess the lay of the land.In today\u2019s deal, for example, South is in four hearts.West leads a low club.East wins with his ace and shifts to the spade jack.(Declarer is going to have to assume that West has the spade king.) South ducks the second trick to West\u2019s spade king and wins his club return.Declarer can afford one diamond loser, not two, and there is a possibility of an endplay in that suit.South draws trumps and takes his black-suit winners, ending on the board.Dummy has the jack of hearts (say) and the J-8-7 of diamonds.Declarer holds the seven of hearts and A-10-2 of diamonds.If declarer leads the diamond jack and East does not cover, West wins with the king but is endplayed.Whether he leads a diamond or concedes a ruff-and- sluff, South is home.But if East covers with the queen and South wins with his ace, what next?He cannot afford to cross to the board with a trump because the opponent with the other diamond royal might claim the last two tricks with that card and a spade or a club.Declarer has to guess: Is the diamond king or diamond nine now a singleton?Also, maybe he can no longer win, neither key card being alone.Suppose instead that South runs the seven from the board.He makes or loses the contract depending on the location of the nine without any guesswork.It\u2019s easier on the nerves.PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER PressReader.com +1 604 278 4604
