A message from Mayor Clarkson

April 29, 2021

Well, here is a good news story!  

Council has been asked to urge all citizens to participate in the May 3^rd Canada 2021 Census. This is a starting date and everyone is encouraged to go online or ask for a paper version but make sure that the forms are filled out. Most will do it online. This is the Government’s way of determining what our country really looks like, and assist in making decisions concerning programs, and our changing demographics which are necessary for an accurate glimpse of who we are and where we are at. The difficult times we have all lived through this past one and a half years make this even more necessary than ever before.

On another front, vaccinations are rolling out. I volunteer at least once a week and I can vouch for the efficiency and good humour of all involved. Please encourage all in your power to take advantage of this, (the only tool we have) to get control of this virus and get us back to a semblance of normal. There is no logical reason to turn our backs on this tool, it is a matter of life and death and the long lasting side effects that a large number of people are suffering now and for years to come. Lets put politics and dogmas aside and put an end to this!  

Spring is just around the corner. My magnolia is in full bloom and the frogs are wide-awake, if that isn’t a reason to celebrate, I don’t know what is. 

Your forever optimistic,

Mayor Janet Clarkson
