TREE PLANTING HELP The South Nation Conservation Autho- rity (SNC) expressed support for a new federal four-year program, to help local and regional treeplanting projects in Ontario. The federal government will provide $15 million to aid Forest Ontario’s goal of planting 50 million trees by 2020, now that the Ontario government has cancelled funding for the project in this year’s budget. The SNC partners each spring with Forest Ontario to provide seedlings, at reduced cost, to local property owners for treeplanting projects. This year, more than 80,000 seedlings were planted in the South Nation River watershed.– Gregg Chamberlain

t will soon be time to once more be on the lookout for ticks. “It’s important to contact your healthcare provider if you believe a tick was attached for more than 24 hours or if you develop flu-like symptoms or an expanding rash in the weeks following a tick bite” stressed Dr. Paul Roumeliotis, Medical Officer of Health at the Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU). “If Lyme infection isn’t recognized and treated, symptoms can last from months to years, and include serious health problems affec- ting the heart, nervous system or joints.” The EOHU is offering free tick removal cards to local residents. The tick cards can make removing ticks that are attached to the skin easier, and can be carried in a wallet.
La saison des tiques étant revenue, le Bureau de santé de l’est de l’Ontario (BSEO) offre gratuitement des cartes d’extraction de tiques aux résidents de la région. Les cartes à tiques peuvent faciliter l’extraction des tiques qui sont fixées à la peau. Celles-ci sont disponibles dans l’un des six bureaux régionaux du BSEO. —photo fournie

Along with distributing the tick removal cards, the EOHU is cautioning residents that popula- tions of blacklegged ticks, which can spread Lyme disease to humans, are growing in locations across the five eastern counties. The region has known risk areas, where blacklegged ticks have been identified and where individuals have the potential to come into contact with infected ticks. Lyme disease is a serious illness that can cause symptoms usually within 3 to 30 days after a tick bite. These include fever, headache, muscle aches and joint pains, stiff neck, decreased appetite, fatigue, swollen glands and a rash, although many people never suffer from the latter. The risk of Lyme disease transmission from a tick to a human is very low if the tick is attached for less than 24 hours. However, that risk climbs if an infected tick is attached for over 24 hours. Most cases of Lyme disease can be treated successfully with antibiotics. Ticks are most active in the spring and summer months but can be found at any time of the year when the temperature is above freezing, usually in woodlands, tall grasses and bushes. Residents can visit www.eohu.ca/lyme to learn how to protect themselves from ticks and Lyme disease. Tick removal cards are available for pickup, while quantities last, at each of the six regional offices of the EOHU. For locations and maps, visit the contact section of the EOHU’s website at www.eohu.ca.
Promesse faite, promesse tenue. Les Chevaliers de Colomb de L’Orignal ont promis de soutenir les travaux d’embellissement du Parc de L’Orignal. Le Chevalier Marcel Clément (à gauche) a donc remis au maire Normand Riopel un chèque de 5000 $ lors de la séance du 14 mai du conseil municipal de Champlain. M. Clément a réitéré que les Chevaliers de Colomb s’engageaient à appuyer les travaux de rénovation que doit apporter le Service des parcs et loisirs au parc communautaire, qui sont évalués à 30 000 $. —photo Gregg Chamberlain
