Le Faiseur d'Anges à la Croix Gammée,\u201d at the McBroue resto-bar in Salaberry-de- Valleyfield.In his book, Théorét draws an objective portrait of Dr.Lalanne, who contributed to the rise of Nazism in Quebec.Born in 1883, the Doctor studied medicine in Montreal at the University of Laval.He was admitted to the College of Physicians in 1907 and practiced medicine throughout his life.Far from a typical biography.Théorét strives to present what he calls a \u201chistorical investigation\u201d into the story of Dr.Lalanne\u2019s involvement in financing the activities of Adrien Arcand.a Quebec journalist and pamphleteer who led a number of fascist movements in Canada in the 1930- 40s.Lalanne was one of the main financiers of the Nazi Party of Canada and a political organizer for Arcand.The Doctor lived out much of his life on Sherbrooke Street and later in the Côte-des-Neiges area in Montreal.however in 1925 he bought a house near Sainte-Barbe on an island bearing his name.During his life, the doctor demonstrated great generosity towards the Sainte-Barbe Parish Church.He purchased a new organ for the church in 1928 and seven years later he invested $100 for new church bells.Upon his death in 1951.the diocese in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield acquired the property and created the Centre Saint-François.In 1998.a developer from Montreal purchased the building and sold it to a private buyer.\u201cMy point was to try to dig to find some facts about the doctor,\u201d says Théorét., acknowledging that Lalanne is an historical figure whose life is mired in myth and rumour.For example, the long-held belief that Dr.Lalanne was performing clandestine abortions on the island in Sainte-Barbe proved impossible to confirm without a doubt.\u201cI am not judging.\u201d says the author, noting that wherever possible he has tried \u201cnot to judge the doctor, the church or the people who knew him.\u201d This was at times a difficult task, as \u201chistory is not always nice,\u201d he quips.The Gleaner launched author\u2019s career Théorét worked at The Gleaner for four years, between 1996 and 2000.\u201cTo be very honest, my experience was probably my most interesting job.\u201d he says.And this is no small praise as he has gone on to further his education, work as a counselor for the federal government and to author his first book.\u201cI learned a lot and | really enjoyed working with the community.\u201d he says of his time behind the desk at the weekly paper.The Gleaner represented the author's first experience as a reporter.and you might say the spirit of journalism has followed him throughout his career.\u201cThe line between journalism and being a historian is very thin.In my mind, | am still thinking like a journalist,\u201d says Théorét.\u201cIt involves the same attitude and the same work, it is just the tense that changes.\u201d One thing that has not wavered is his interest in the life of Dr.Lalanne.Raised in Saint- Stanislas-de-Kostka, he first learned about the island in Port Lewis at a young age.Then in the early 1990s he met a local historian, and had the opportunity to visit the island and was shocked with what he found.\u201cIt started there,\u201d he says of what would become an odyssey into the life of the Doctor.His interests remained sidelined until 2002, when he worked for the French version of the History Channel, Historia on a series, which featured an episode on the island.It all came back to him, and following his stint with Historia, he delved back into his research.His work brought him to The Gleaner archives, where an article was published on October 3, 1939 about an RCMP bust on the island.The clipping was featured on the front page.The first time Théorét published an article on the Doctor it was printed in La Source, and he wrote another for the Chateauguay rR wd sed nil Former journalist with The Gleaner/La Source, Hugues Théorét officially launched his first book, \u201cLe Docteur Lalanne - Le Faiseur d'Anges à la Croix Gammée,\u201d on October 7 at the MeBroue resto-bar in Salaberry- de-Valleyfield.Valley Historical Society's annual journal.\u201cI'm not sure this is the end,\u201d he says of his investigation into the doctor's life.The author assumes that once the book is out there, people will begin to come forward with new stories of Lalanne, and another chapter will open up.\u201cIt's my first book but | am pretty sure it won't be the last.\u201d he says, noting that he hopes to see the book translated into English.\u201cThe doctor was well known among the English community as well,\u201d he says.A warning however, this is not light reading.\u201cMy goal was to produce a historical book.\u201d he says, noting that he chose to leave the rumors to those who wish to believe them.\u201cEverything | mention is supported by facts,\u201d he says, noting that he is aware of the book's significance to local readers.\u201cIt was important for people, not only in Saint- Anicet, but in the area to know more about the doctor = 150 Anniversary A4 LEMNY 1863 2013 ge fn.Original photos will be scanned as you wait!

of all those who have fought to see the bridge saved and then restored.As such it will remain an enduring symbol not only of our history but of a dedication to preserving our architectural

LAFLAMME (translated by Sarah Rennie) A Sainte-Martine company has plans to erect wind turbines in Saint-Chrysostome and Tres-Saint-Sacrement.The President of Troc International, Jean-Claude Desgroseillers, met with the municipal councils of the two municipalities in September to propose the creation of a wind frm straddling the two territories.The company plans to build 20 turbines on the Du Rocher Sideroad, eleven of which would be located in Saint-Chrysostome and nine in Très-Saint-Sacrement.The suggested layout of the turbines reccomended by the company would see them built between the Rangs du Cinq.Saint-Jean- Bapriste, Saint-Antoine et Saint-Louis.The new wind farm would connect to the Hydro-Quebec power station in Saint- Chrysostome.As specified in an Haut- Saint-Laurent MRC bylaw the electrical lines will be buried, however those passing on solid rock will be covered in cement.These lines will bring electricity to the station where it will be connected to Hydro Quebec'\u2019s 120,000 volt high tension lines.\u201cThe du Rocher sector is a promising site,\u201d said Desgroseillers, who is originally from Howick.\u201cThe site offers solid ground, composed mainly of rock and thin layer of topsoil that is unsuitable for agriculture.The solidity of the ground minimizes the need for embankments on the access roads required for the coming and going of heavy equipment transporting components.The layout is the same size as the du Rocher site, which limits the need to cut trees.\u201d He also promises that the project will not touch arable land.Desgroseillers specifies however that the wind turbines will be placed at least 500 meters away from nearby homes.\u201cAs the layout is located between two roads, this gives us a distance of 900 to 1100 meters,\u201d he says.The height of each turbine will be approximately 150.5 meters or 497 feet.The towers will be built in Matane while the blades will be made in Quebec.According to Desgroseillers, the wind farm should generate 60 megawatts of power.The councils from both municipalities are now studying the draft project submitted by Troc International.The wind farm is expected to cost $160 million to build.Desgroseillers has suggested that he seek out investors and funding for the project.\u201cIt won't cost either municipality a penny.\u201d Desgroseillers estimates that the initial construction work could generate one hundred jobs after which five or six individuals will be hired to operate the site.In addition to the wind turbines, a 70 metre high wind verification tower will be installed.The councilors and | are reflecting on it,\" says Saint-Chrysostome Mayor Jocelyne Lefort.\"We will take the time we need to be certain that the project is feasible at this time in Saint-Chrysostome.We must consider what our citizens really want.We are aware of the potential impact of the presence of wind turbines on our municipality.\" The Mayor of Très-Saint-Sacrement, Francois Rochefort suggests that municipal officials are still analyzing the proposal submitted by Troc International.\"Mr.Desgroseillers gave us a nice project on paper, but we have to go prudently.There is still a way to go before we reach a decision.There are a lot of questions to be asked before we reach a final decision.\" he said.Before the project can proceed, the head of Troc International needs the support of both municipalities, which would need to sign a memorandum of understanding.\u201cThe MOU defines the financial benefits as well as the preoccupations of the municipal councils, which will be incorporated into the wording of the agreement as presented by my company,\u201d said Desgroseillers.The first turbine will be erected 2.4 kilometers away from the Village of Saint- Pierre and 2 kilometers from Dyno-Nobel, a company that manufactures dynamite.Desgroseillers has given himself a period of 18 to 24 months in which to come to a final decision on the construction of the wind farm.A Sainte-Martine based company, Troc International, led by Jean-Claude Desgroseillers, has plans to erect 20 wind turbines, eleven of which will be located in Saint-Chrysostome while nine will go up in Très-Saint-Sacrement.(Photo: PL.) ! of es t- Elections to the Board of Directors for the Haut-Saint-Laurent HSSC Four candidates vying for two seats Patrice LAFLAMME (translated by Sarah Rennie) Citizens of the territory covered by the Haut-Saint-Laurent Health and Social Services Centre will be called to the polls on the first Tuesday of November to elect new members to the Board of Directors.Four candidates have decided to run for two available seats.As a member of the Board of Directors at the local HSSC since 1997.Jean-Gilles Bourdeau would like to keep his seat.\u201cFor fourteen years | worked hard to represent my fellow citizens on the board of the CSSS.During this time, I was a leader in repatriating the Centre d'Accueil in Ormstown and | led the battle to keep the Barrie Memorial Hospital in our MRC when they were consolidating establishments.| am committed to maintaining specialized quality care that is accessible to all citizens of our region,\u201d said Bourdeau, an agricultural producer from Saint- Antoine- Abbé.Louise Lachance Lagault, who joined the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee for the HSSC four years ago.is also a dedicated volunteer within the regional health and social service community.She also hopes to be re-elected on November |.\u201c1 love what | do and | want to continue to work to ensure the best health services for everyone.This is why | am seeking the support of citizens in this very important election that affects all of us,\u201d said the Saint-Anicet based artist.whose father, Marc Lachance, practiced general surgery for 49 years, and whose husband.Marcel Legault, practiced as a dental surgeon for 30 years.As a high level administrator with the Sûreté du Québec (SQ) now retired, Yves Beauregard decided to run for either of the two available positions on the Board.\"My experience in public service, combined with my training in political science and women's studies gives me the abilities to understand the challenges within the institution, to analyze them and collegially take action,\u201d said the resident of Elgin.For Beauregard, the main priority for the future Board will be to continue to focus on efforts to recruit new doctors.\"In continuation of its efforts and achievements in 2011, the new Board will have to innovate in order to address this recurring problem.For example, it would be good to attract new doctors by focusing on the many attractions of our region which unfortunately remain unknown.Until then, it will have to improve the work environment in our facilities and meet the challenges related to the shortage of doctors.We must assure the public has access to specialized medical care,\" he says.He has already served on different Boards of Directors, first as co-founder of a shelter for abused women in Lachute and as founding President of the Youth Centre of Bordeaux-Cartierville in Montreal.Marc-André Filion has also decided to present as a candidate in these elections.\u201cI want to become more involved in the community and to share my experience, both as a lawyer and as a manager,\" he says.An Ormstown resident for over ten years, he has served as the Director and Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Maison des Jeunes in Huntingdon for three years.He has also worked as a volunteer consultant for a community organization and the Haut-Saint-Laurent CDC.Members elected to the Board of Directors serve a four-year mandate.Voters will be able to cast ballots between noon and 8 pm in several locations including; room 302 of the Huntingdon CLSC.Room 111 of the Huntingdon CLSC service centre in Saint-Chrysostome, the Sunshine Room at the Residence Ormstown retirement and long term care home, as well

period of local history that serves as the backdrop for a new bilingual play written and directed by Suzan Porter opening on October 29 at the Alfred Langevin Cultural Hall in Huntingdon.Chateau Sinistre opens on a dark October evening as residents are gathering for a municipal meeting where investors in the Chateau are trying to obtain a liquor license when events turn sinister for the local Mayor.Mystery.scandal and hilarity ensue.The play.inspired by an article written by Robert McGee on the construction of the Chateau that first appeared in a Chateauguay Valley Historical Society Journal, features a collection of actors familiar to local theatre buffs mixed with several newcomers to the craft in their theatrical debut.The 35-minute play features performances by Marie-Pierre Dagenais, stars Celine Bouchard.Marie-Pierre Dagenais.Richard Hansen.Brandy Hershon, Cathleen Johnston.Tony King.Dvorah Neumann, Nicole Poissant.Zoë Robidoux, and John Speed.\u2018 NW 2 x _ .-

the process.\u201cThere are so many good stories,\u201d she says, noting that many of the headlines from that time are \u201cunbelievable.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s a labour of love,\u201d says Porter of the play, noting that audiences are very receptive to theatre in the Valley and that this makes it a great place to experiment for writers.\u201cIt does not get any better than this when you want to write.\u201d A coup for the local production 1s the participation of renowned costume designer Richard Hansen as Art Director, who hand created all of the costumes and wigs for the characters in the play.\u201cWe are very grateful to have him on hand,\u201d says Porter of the wealth of knowledge and experience he brought with him to the play.Produced by the Haut-Saint-Laurent MRC.the play

LAFLAMME et Sarah RENNIE l'historien Hugues Théorêt est intarissable quand il s\u2019agit de parler du Dr Paul-Émile Lalanne, un des personnages les plus méconnus et des plus fascinants de la petite histoire régionale et aussi de celle du Québec.Il peut parler pendant de nombreuses heures de cet individu dont des faits marquants de son existence ne cessent de l'étonner grandement.La vie de cet homme pour le moins énigmatique est racontée dans un livre intitulée «Le docteur Lalanne \u2014 Le faiseur d'anges à la croix gammée», écrit par M.Théorêt, qui a fait l\u2019objet d'un lancement officiel le 7 octobre en soirée au deuxième étage du resto-bar McBroue à Salaberry-de-Valleyfield.Dans cet ouvrage de 184 pages, l'auteur dresse un portrait objectif du Dr Lalanne qui a contribué à sa manière à l'essor du nazisme au Québec.Ce mystérieux gynécologue, qui pratiquait des avortements dans la clandestinité, était un fervent de cette doctrine et de la croix gammée qui en était le pur symbole.«Mon but était d'essayer de creuser pour trouver un certain nombre faits sur ce médecin», explique l'auteur, tout en reconnaissant que le Dr Lalanne est un personnage historique dont la vie «s\u2019est embourbée dans le mythe et la rumeur».selon lui.Il estime que la vieille croyance voulant que ce médecin a pratiqué des avortements clandestins sur son île s'est révélée été impossible à confirmer sans aucun doute.Né à Montréal en 1883, Paul-Emile Lalanne a étudié à l'Université Laval à Montréal en médecine.Admis au Collège des médecins en 1907, il a exercé cette profession tout au long de sa vie.Dans son livre qui est loin d'être d'une biographie typique, M.Théorêt raconte entre autres que le Dr Lalanne finançait les activités de Adrien Arcand, un journaliste et un pamphlétaire québécois qui a été le leader d'un certain nombre de mouvements fascistes au Canada tels le Parti de l'unité du Canada durant les décennies 1930 et 1940.«ll était un des principaux bailleurs de fonds du parti nazi au Canada.Il était un des organisateurs politiques de M.Arcand», a-t-il déclaré.S'il a passé la majeure partie de sa vie sur la rue Sherbrooke puis dans le quartier Côte-des-Neiges à Montréal, le Dr Lalanne a acheté non loin de Sainte-Barbe une île sise qui portera son nom de famille en 1925 et s\u2019y installera.Il va y construire une maison en bois rond comportant de nombreuses pièces et deux immenses foyers.Durant sa vie, le Dr Lalanne se montrait généreux en dépit de sa fortune.En août 1928, il a acheté un orgue tout neuf pour l\u2019église paroissiale de Sainte-Barbe.Sept ans plus tard, il verse 100$ pour la remise à neuf des cloches de ce même temple religieux.Après la mort du Dr Lalanne survenue en avril 1951, le domaine fut acquis par l'évêché de Valleyfield qui va créer le Centre Saint-François.En 1998, un promoteur immobilier de Montréal en fait l'acquisition pour ensuite le revendre à un particulier.Les meubles du défunt sont restés la propriété du diocèse.«Je ne juge pas», indique l'auteur, soulignant que la mesure du possible, il a essayé «de ne pas juger le médecin, l'église ou les gens qui le connaissaient.» Il «Cela a été parfois une tâche difficile», selon lui, d'autant plus que «l\u2019histoire n'est pas toujours agréable», ironise-t-il.M.Théorêt a oeuvré au Gleaner/La Source pendant quatre ans, de 1996 et 2000.«Pour être très honnête, mon expérience a été probablement mon travail le plus intéressant», a- t-il confié.J'ai beaucoup appris et j'ai vraiment apprécié de travailler avec la communauté», a-t-il dit de son emploi au sein de l'hebdomadaire.The Gleaner/La Source a représenté pour l'auteur une première expérience professionnelle en tant que journaliste, et sa vision de ce métier l\u2019a suivi pour la suite de sa carrière.«La ligne entre le journalisme et la vocation d'historien est très mince.Dans mon esprit.je pense toujours comme un journaliste, explique-t-il.Il s'agit de la même attitude et du Vous êtes

nouvelles histoires du Dr Lalanne, et un autre chapitre va s'ouvrir.«C\u2019est mon premier livre mais je suis convaincu que ce ne sera pas le dernier», souligne-t-il, tout en espérant voir l\u2019ouvrage traduit en anglais.«Le médecin était bien connu dans la communauté anglaise aussi», soutient-il.M.Théorêt a cependant voulu lancer un avertissement: ce n'est pas de la lecture facile.«Mon objectif était de produire un livre historique» dit-il, soulignant qu\u2019il a choisi de laisser les rumeurs à ceux qui veulent bien les croire.«Tout ce que j'ai mentionné est soutenu par des faits», a-t-il indiqué.notant qu'il est conscient de l'importance du livre pour les lecteurs de la région.«C'était important pour les gens, non seulement à Saint- Anicet mais dans la région, d'en

Quatre candidats pour deux sièges à combler D} Patrice LAFLAMME Les citoyens du territoire couvert par le centre de santé et de services sociaux (CSSS) du Haut Saint-Laurent se préparent maintenant à aller aux urnes afin d'élire des membres au niveau du conseil d'administration.Les électeurs seront appelés le mardi ler novembre à choisir deux personnes pour occuper deux places de représentants de la population.Quatre candidats ont décidé de briguer les suffrages pour l'un ou l'autre de ces postes.Faisant partie du conseil d\u2019administration du CSSS du Haut Saint-Laurent depuis 1997, Jean-Gilles Bourdeau veut continuer d'y occuper un siège.«Depuis quatorze ans, j'ai travaillé très fort pour bien pour bien représenter les intérêts de mes concitoyens sur le conseil d'administration du CSSS.Pendant ces années, j'ai été un leader dans le rapatriement du centre d'accueil d'Ormstown dans notre CSSS et j'ai mené la bataille pour garder l'hôpital Barrie Memorial dans notre MRC lors du processus de regroupement des établissements.J'ai à coeur de maintenir des soins de qualité et spécialisés accessibles à tous les citoyens de notre région», a fait savoir ce producteur agricole de Saint-Antoine-Abbé.Louise Lachance-Legault, qui a adhéré au conseil d'administration et au comité de vérification du CSSS il y a quatre ans, mise sur ses nombreuses années à titre de bénévole dans le milieu de services sociaux et de santé dans la région pour espérer se faire élire le ler novembre.«J'aime ce que je fais et je désire continuer le travail accompli afin de vous assurer des meilleurs services de santé.C'est pourquoi je sollicite l'appui des citoyens dans cette élection très importante qui regarde tous et chacun», a indiqué cette artiste-peintre de Saint-Anicet dont le père, Marc Lachance, a pratiqué la chirurgie générale durant 49 ans et dont le mari.Marcel Legault, fut chirurgien dentaire pendant 30 ans.Gestionnaire de premier niveau au sein de la Sûreté du Québec (S.Q.) maintenant à la retraite, Yves Beauregard a décidé de déposer sa candidature pour l\u2019un ou l'autre des deux postes au conseil d'administration du CSSS.«Mon expérience dans la fonction publique, combinée à mes formations en sciences politiques et en études féministes, m'offrent la capacité de comprendre les défis de l'institution, de les analyser et de trouver en collégialité les actions à prendre», a fait savoir ce résidant d'Elgin.Pour M.Beauregard, la principale priorité du futur conseil d'administration demeurera le recrutement de nouveaux éléments au sein du personnel médical.«En continuité des efforts et des résultats obtenus en 201 |, le nouveau conseil d'administration devra innover pour remédier à ce problème récurrent.Par exemple, il serait judicieux d'attirer de nouveaux médecins en misant sur les nombreux attraits de notre région qui malheureusement reste méconnue.D'ici-là, il faudra améliorer le climat de travail dans nos installations pour ainsi répondre aux défis reliés à cette pénurie de main d'oeuvre.Il faut garantir à la population l\u2019 accessibilité aux soins médicaux généraux et spécialisés», a-t-il dit, lui qui a déjà siégé à des conseils d'administration, d'abord comme cofondateur d'une maison d'hébergement pour femmes violentées à Lachute ainsi que comme président-fondateur de la maison des jeunes de Bordeaux-Cartierville à Montréal.À la fois avocat et courtier immobilier agréé, Marc-André Fillon a choisi de se porter candidat à ces élections.«Je désire m'impliquer davantage au sein de la communauté et faire profiter celle-ci de mon expérience, tant à titre d'avocat que de gestionnaire», souligne ce Yves Beauregard Louise Lachance-Legault citoyen d'Ormstown qui a entre autres agi comme administrateur et comme président du conseil d'administration de la maison des jeunes de Huntingdon pendant trois ans.Le mandat de chacun des membres du conseil d'administration est d'une durée de quatre ans.Les électeurs pourront aller voter entre midi et 20h à la salle 302 du CLSC Huntingdon, à la salle 111 du point de services du CLSC Huntingdon à Saint- Chrysostome, à la salle Sunshine du centre d'hébergement et de soins de longue durée d'Ormstown de même qu'à la salle communautaire numéro deux de Saint-Anicet.Un [4 th 6: s;0 da Une exposition sur les rivières et les ponts à Huntingdon Les célébrations officielles du 150e anniversaire d'existence du pont couvert de Powerscourt se sont peut-être terminées le même jour qu\u2019elles ont commencé.Il reste toutefois que tout cet héritage laissé par ce pont ainsi que le grande importance accordée aux rivières et aux ponts sur le portrait naturel de cette région seront fortement mis en évidence à la salle culturel Alfred-Langevin du Château de Huntingdon jusqu\u2019au 30 octobre.Le clou de l'exposition consiste en une collection de sections réelles et de parties de l'actuel pont avant qu'il ne soit restauré.Les visiteurs peuvent aussi admirer parmi les pièces conservées du pont une composante de bois provenant de l\u2019intérieur de l'ouvrage routier dans lequel deux jeunes amants ont gravé une fois leurs noms.Professeur à l\u2019Université McGill, Saeed Mirza a souligné, lors de son exposé dans le cadre de la fête soulignant les 150 ans du pont couvert de Powerscourt, que les ponts couverts dans certaines parties du monde sont désignés comme des «ponts des amours».Selon Anick Lacroix, la coordonnatrice de la salle Alfred-Langevin, l'expertise de l'historien Robert McGee était influente dans le montage de l\u2019exposition.«Il a été la raison pour laquelle nous avons pu faire l'exposition.Il a été une ressource incroyable», a-t-elle dit de M.McGee, dont les connaissances sur la région sont vastes.L'exposition se veut aussi instructive puisqu\u2019elle est révélatrice de la beauté des paysages entourant les ponts et les rivières que recèle la région.(photo S.R.) 24 OCTOBRE 2011 - LA SOURCE PAGE 21 À. .e Haut Saint-Laurent La période de vaccination contre la grippe saisonnière débute prochainement La grippe saisonnière est très contagieuse et peut entraîner des complications graves chez les personnes les plus vulnérables.La vaccination demeure le meilleur outil pour se protéger contre les phénomènes pathologiques liées à cette maladie.Cette année encore, le centre de santé et de services sociaux (CSSS) du Haut Saint-Laurent dispense l'immunisation contre la grippe, laquelle sera disponible sans rendez-vous dès le 5 novembre pour les citoyens de tous les âges du territoire qu'il dessert.«Cette année, le vaccin contiendra trois souches de grippe, dont celle de la grippe pandémique À (HIN1)», a indiqué Pierre Dubois, conseiller aux communications au CSSS du Haut Saint-Laurent.Les enfants en bonne santé de six à 23 mois et les membres de leurs familles peuvent se rendre sans frais dans l\u2019une ou l'autre des cliniques de vaccination qui se tiennent dans cinq localités du Haut Saint-Laurent.Les aînés de 60 ans et plus, les personnes âgés de deux à 59 ans souffrant de maladies chroniques et leurs proches de même que les femmes enceintes en bonne santé qui en sont à un deuxième ou troisième trimestre de grossesse pourront aussi se faire vacciner gratuitement.Il en est de même pour les aidants naturels, les employés du réseau de la santé et des services sociaux et les autres travailleurs ou bénévoles souvent présents aux côtés des aînés, des individus atteintes de maladies chroniques ou des bébés de moins de deux ans.Les autres individus intéressés à se faire immuniser devront débourser des frais minimes.«Il est nécessaire de se faire vacciner chaque année, dans la mesure où les virus de la grippe saisonnière varient d'une année à l\u2019autre», estime M.Dubois.Les personnes désireuses de se faire vacciner n'ont qu'à se présenter aux dates, aux heures et aux endroits prévus à cet effet.Elles peuvent consulter l'horaire des cliniques publiée dans le présent numéro du Gleaner/La Source, communiquer avec le CSSS du Haut Saint-Laurent par téléphone au 450.829.2321 ou consulter le site Internet www.san-
