OPINION

Call for new representation The great City of Cornwall rests on the cusp of promise. Regrettably, persistent negative issues at city hall are creating an image of distrust and uncertainty which threatens growth. wrongful dismissal claims suggests that city council wrestles more with cure than pre- vention. Teamwork appears to have quickly transcended towards in-fighting. Thank- fully, some city councillors are true to their oath and maintain a high sense of integrity. We are grateful for their leadership under trying circumstances. There is a pall on the affairs of the city at present. Human resource issues alone are finding city taxes, lining the pockets of out of town high-priced lawyers.] The predominance of secret meetings coupled with the high incidence of the The time is ripe for experienced, hard- working and transparent representation. The good of the community must come
before personal gain in every sense of the word. The great potential of our city must come before personal agendas.

Wild Parsnip on the rise in eastern Ontario
The Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) is warning residents of the five eastern counties to avoid Wild Parsnip plants when spending time outdoors this sum- mer. Wild Parsnip, also known as Poison Parsnip, is a toxic plant that is rapidly spreading throughout the region. Certain individuals may be affected by Wild Parsnip more than others as they may suffer from a heightened sensitivity to the plant’s sap. When the stem is broken or
the plant is brushed against, exposure to the sap can cause severe rashes, blisters or burns resulting in brown scars that can last for several years. If a person’s eyes come into contact with the plant’s sap, it can cause temporary or permanent blindness. The best way to avoid an infestation is to remove it. When removing Wild Parsnip, in- dividuals must wear goggles, rubber gloves, rubber boots and coveralls. They must wash their boots and gloves with soap, water
and a scrub brush before taking them off. It is preferable to mow the plant before it flowers (late June to early July) to prevent it from spreading. Wild Parsnip can also be pulled out by hand or dug up. More information about Wild Parsnip plants and how to remove them is available at www.eohu.ca or via the Health Line, 613- 933-1375 or 1 800 267-7120.
