TERI 0 Vv Chec oints Brief items from _around the Valley RCMP raid at St-Anicet Judith Taylor THE GLEANER .RCMP Border Patrol officers from Valleyfield, armed with a search warrant, seized 642 marijuana plants and hydroponic growing equipment at a St-Anicet home on Wednesday Mar.6.Two people found in the Route 132 house, a man aged 47 and a 34-year-old woman, were arrested during the raid, which Constable Michel Arcand described as the result of an ongoing investigation.The suspects were released on their own recognizance and are scheduled to appear in court in Valleyfield on April 26 to face charges connected with the operation.Const.Arcand said the marijuana plants averaged about 2.5 feet in height and would have reached maturity within three or four weeks.He was unable to give a street value for the marijuana or the growing equipment which was also found in the basement of the house.The officer explained that when illegal substances are seized, the RCMP must go through a legal process to get permission to burn, bury or destroy them with chemicals.The RCMP maintains a special toll-free number (1-866-866-1452) for people who have information or tips about this kind of illegal operation.All calls are kept confidential.County Building sale completed Admitting that the MRC was indeed the legal owner of the land containing its former headquarters (the historic Huntingdon County building) and the adjacent registry office, The Town of Huntingdon has agreed to pay the $60,000 balance of the purchase price for the two buildings.Doubt over who owned the King St.lots arose last fall, and the Town decided to hold back the last part of the $440,000 purchase price until the land title was cleared.Now documentary research has indicated that when the County Building was erected in 1859, the land was turned over to the County by the Town.The County Building is now the location of the Huntingdon municipal offices, which moved across the street after the MRC Haut-St-Laurent moved into its newly renovated headquarters at the former Huntingdon Chateau.The County Building was classified as a heritage building in 1984 by Quebec.(PLJT) mation meeting.An

more years in power and a saving of $10,000 to $15,000: that's what Huntingdon and its Council stand to gain if Quebec grants its request to postpone municipal elections for two years from the scheduled date of November 2003.The year 2005 has been designated by Quebec as the target for all the province\u2019s municipalities to get their elections coordinated, ending the confusing system which currently sees a varying number of councillors\u2019 seats come up for election in some municipalities on a staggered basis.Following the lead of the towns of Lachute and Mirabel, which have already drafted requests for the two-year delay, Huntingdon Council decided at its March meeting to follow the same path and ask the Municipal Affairs ministry for permission to postpone its 2003 vote.Municipal secretary-treasurer Diane Taillon emphasized that the delay will save time and money associated with paperwork, public notices, advertising costs and paying election workers, especially when one considers that the whole process would have two be repeated two years = DN later.English news: Pages 1-8, 16 H\u2019don wants to postpone municipal vote until 2005 Other Haut-St-Laurent municipalities scheduled for elections in 2003 include Hinchinbrooke, St-Chrysostome, Très-St- Sacrement, Elgin and Godmanchester.Dundee, Ste-Barbe and St-Anicet electors are to go to the polls next November if there are any contests for vacated seats.(PL/JT) Judith Taylor THE GLEANER Treading a careful path between agricultural and environmental concerns, Ormstown has obtained extra guarantees from a local pig-farmer wanting to expand his business, and plans to start monitoring the water situation in its rural wells and watercourses this spring.A two-part public information meeting held Wednesday Mar.6 at the local Recreation Centre drew nearly 300 people from the municipality and beyond.They heard a description of the process Ormstown has undertaken, first to understand just what its own powers are in relation to recently-changed provincial legislation, and then to determine what it can do to monitor environmental protection of rural watercourses and the river system, in the face of expanded livestock operations and the increased amount of manure which will be produced and spread on the fields.Mayor John McCaig and several of his councillors, along with the municipal lawyer and representatives of the Environment ministry and the UPA farm union were at the table.Municipal secre- tary-treasurer Daniel Théroux did most of the explaining of the information contained in a substantial handout accompanying a visual presentation.Negotiations with farmer The second half of the program dealt specifically with the request from local pig producer Ken O'Farrell for a building permit which would allow him to expand one of his three pork-production units.During negotiations this winter between the farmer and the municipality, an agreement was reached which includes extra clauses and imposes fines for infractions over and above those specified by the Environment ministry, whose norms O'Farrell has already met.See ORMSTOWN page 4 Weekday hockey Lu er 1.To he Re og

digital camera, scanner for its Media Centre Judith Taylor THE GLEANER Sometimes small schools get a helping hand just when they need it most.This was the case recently for Ecole St- Romain in Hemmingford, and the English- language Elementary School in that community will be next on the list, thanks to the Hemmingford Golf Club Foundation, a non-profit fund-raising group associated with the local Golf Club but dedicated as well to helping out in the larger community, especially with children and family projects.Recently, representatives of the Foundation visited St-Romain\u2019s School for the official presentation of a cheque for $1020.16 to pay for a new digital camera .and digital scanner for the school\u2019s use.Photos for France The new equipment will help both staff and pupils in all kinds of ways, including sending pictures to their exchange partner, a school in Arras, in northern France, with which they have been linked by e-mail for a number of years.As well, St-Romain\u2019s pupils will use the new equipment to help with presentations and projects,.and the teachers will be able to digitize and download pupils\u2019 work to all the school\u2019s computers.The \u201cmedia centre\u201d is an idea which Quebec is pushing for all the school in the rovince, but for smaller semi-rural schools ike the two in Hemmingford and others throughout the Valley, small enrolments \u2018mean inadequate funding for such projects.And t's where the Golf Club Foundation stepped in.: At the school assembly marking the pre- | sentation, Foundation president Mario Taboika said he was delighted with the enthusiasm the students showed for the new equipment.Grade 6 pupil and Student School Committee head Arielle Bray thanked the Foundation on behalf of the pupils.Comparing notes After school principal Lise-Anne Rhéaume talked about the Media Centre project, teacher Ken Dolphin, who helped pick out the equipment, described the exchange project with the school in Arras, He said that children in Quebec begin using computer equipment earlier, but the French youngsters have an accelerated program which brings them to an equal level within a few years.The children have bo CTI 0 sé à Principal Lise-Anne Rhéaume, teacher Ken Dolphin and Mario Taboika of the Golf Club Foundation, surrounded by some of the St-Romain\u2019s pupils.(Photo: PL) been exchanging information on equipment and curriculum, as well as messages between students, but now they will be able to do much more, he said.Similar equipment will be bought and presented to the Hemmingford Elementary School, another on the list of Foundation projects, which have included contributing to the local Christmas Basket Fund, and a plan to donate the balance of its funds to the \u2018telethon for the Enfant Soleil Foundation in Montreal later this spring.The charter of the Foundation stipulates that all the money raised be distributed each year.To start fund-raising for its next year of operations, the Foundation will hold its second annual benefit Golf Tournament August 7.(BGT/JT) QUALITY MEAT SPECIALS >) GUARANTEED BLOOD BOUCHERIE WHOLESALE PUDDING AND RETAIL .GIFT

of the former County Building (most recently MRC headquarters) to the Town of Huntingdon have been settled.Now the question is, \u201cWhat is to become of the former Town Hall across the street?\u201d We've heard that the Little Green Library might like to relocate in more spacious quarters, and it's possible that the Chateauguay Valley English-Speaking People\u2019s Association, whose building on Route 138 seems destined to be Godmanchester\u2019s new town hall, might also be interested in renting some space in the King St.building.Unfortunately, the 30-year-old building is not suitable for a real community centre, complete with a large hall/gymnasium, something which Huntingdon, almost alone among Valley municipalities, lacks.But the old Town Hall could perhaps offer office line iain Sha space to groups like the now-suspended Culture and Recreation Committee, which a couple of years ago did a good job of organizing a summer day camp and co-ordinating other youth activities.CVESPA has some computers and has been offering free instruction to seniors .Maybe they could offer some computer time to aid a Loisirs group and/or library volunteers and patrons, whether of French or English expression.The English-rights group is undergoing a period of transition, and such a goodwill gesture could only improve its image in the larger community, while not threatening its avowed purpose of protecting English rights.The municipality, too, could gain brownie points by being generous with the space in the disused building in the cause of improving quality of community life in Huntingdon.JD FROM GLEANER ARCHIVES.120 years ago March 9, 1882 SPRING FLOOD On Thursday the usual Spring flood was experienced at this point.The Chateauguay, swollen by the rains of the previous 2 days, raised the ice, and, in places, broke it up.The dam and bulkbead of Messrs Boyd & Co.at Athelstan was damaged to a considerable extent, and the low lands adjoining were submerged.At places on the road to Huntingdon the water was 4 feet deep.From the forks doun- ward the ice moved in the afternoon.The water rose rapidly, and attained a greater beight than during any freshet since the notable one of 1866.Fortunately for those near the banks, the jam gave way in the course of an hour, and the ice passed over the dam and formed a larger and more formidable blockade at the islands, where it still remains.In passing down, the lower bridge bad a narrow escape 60 years ago from it.Several buildings on the north bank were damaged and the dam and grist-mill were none the better of the collision.The basement of the latter was flooded, spoiling some feed, and from the granary there was a small loss.Heavy rains would still cause a serious freshet, for the great body of the ice remains.On the flat country below Durbam travel for a time was dangerous, small bridges being lost sight of and several swept away.LOGGING SEASON OVER On Saturday a number of teams that bad been engaged in the lumber

Court House in Valleyfield.The five-year sentence seemed considerable but Justice Lemay bad considerable reason for making the offence severe.\u201cToo many safe robberies are reported in the rural districts and towns of this province.it is time that examples be made to show those who raid and pillage by night that their depredations can no longer be tolerated by law and justice.I can do no less than concur with the police views.You will each serve five years in the pen- 30 years ago itentiary on each of the cases, concurrently.\u201d ORMSTOWN HOCKEY TRIP An event which will not be forgotten by.the Ormstown Senior Hockey team was the trip to Montreal, where they played \u201cLower Canada College at the Forum.Several .members of the Canadians were watching the game., The boys played bard

lifestyle.Three months after I arrived, I'm facing the reality of industrial pig operations in my back yard.I find it incredible the government continues to ignore the destructive nature of these \u201cfarms\u201d.It continues to support them with our tax dollars and laws which fly in the face of democracy, all in the name of the \u201ceconomy\u201d of Quebec.But what about the people who see their life savings go down the drain when they are left with properties they cannot sell?Ignoring this loss in property values must mean no politicians have found themselves near such intensive livestock operations.Walkerton is a sad example of how these farms contaminate the water table.People died there, and their deaths should not be meaningless.Let's put the blame where it belongs.Individuals were negligent, but more negligent were the politicians and a few greedy people who Fears for the future I am warning our farmers to wake up before it\u2019s too late: You should know that if the integrators (industrial piggeries) take possession of the land in this region, you may not be able to rent one acre of land or buy one acre.The price of the land will probably increase.It is common knowledge that the land will no longer be available for regular cultivation or for rotation.ITSO \u201c Keeping up the fight 4 would not stop industrial farming.One of the most disheartening aspects is the protection of the pig farmers by the right-to-farm laws such as Law 23.They can ravage the land, render our water toxic, add to air pollution and rob communities of their quality of life.Citizens have no say and no recourse.Many have mobilized to make their opinions known to government but no one wants to hear.The Quebec government recently gave its support to the Kyoto agreement and other environmental issues, but at the same time it has set economic objectives which depend on the pork industry for their achievement.These issues must be addressed without dollar signs obscuring the vision of politicians.And we citizens must keep up the fight that others have started, making our concerns heard and urging governments to say no.Anna-Maria Nicolov Hemmingford more information from well-informed people who have no conflict of interest.Rest assured that we are working for you to save our ancestral agricultural land.I was born and raised on a farm in Elgin; I also speak as a land-owner and resident.I fear for the existing farms, and for the environment of this region.Frangois Daoust Elgin Don't just take my word for it, ask for DSO O'Farrell has agreed to pay fines rangi from $2,000 to $10,000 for any infringement of manure-spreading regulations.Overseeing the process is an arbitration committee made up of three agronomes, one representing the farmer, one the municipality and the third acting as arbitrator.His manure-management plan (PAEF) includes a commitment to annual updating, soil tests every two years; and a $1,5 million \u201cresponsibility insurance\u201d policy.Starting this spring Meanwhile, the municipality plans to start this spring with a system of water sampling and an inventory of both wells and watercourses in the green zone.Working with the SCABRIC watershed protection agency and the Environment ministry, Ormstown will set up a system of listing, sampling and follow-up of water quality in watercourses and in individual wells.Included in the inventory ef wells will be \u2018a list of working and inactive welts, their - * 7° Ë .>.FRA \u201cNEWSPAPER POLICY .The Gleaner welcomes letters
