ainsi que le travail acharné de plusieurs bénévoles, le centre de recherche a grandi, un livre à la fois. C’est en 2000 que les membres emballaient les livres et les installaient dans l’ancienne école de la Nativité. Les ressources ont ensuite été déménagées, encore une fois, dans lamaintenant défunte école Sainte-Croix. Un autre déménagement a eu lieu en 2015. Les archives sont maintenant entreposées dans la Cornwall Room , située dans la bibliothèque de Cornwall. « Malheureusement, nous accueillons moins de francophones qu’autrefois, a déclaré Mme White, déçue. Nous devons faire en sorte que les francophones de Cornwall sachent que nous sommes toujours dans la ville. » Pour se faire, le centre de recherche consacre plusieurs heures au transfert d’une partie de sa collection. « Lors de la semaine française, l’an dernier, nous avons déménagé plusieurs de nos livres dans un édifice du cheminMontréal, a expliqué la présidente. Nous avons eu plusieurs visites et les gens semblaient très intéressés. » De plus, Mme White a souligné que le centre participe activement aux activités d’autres sociétés historiques. « Nous collaborons souvent avec Héritage Cornwall, un organisme de la ville qui opère aussi dans la Cornwall Room , a confié la présidente. Nous avons aussi tissé des liens avec de nombreuses sociétés historiques avoisinantes, qui nous envoient souvent des gens désireux d’en connaître davantage sur les membres de leur famille, originaires de notre région. » Plusieurs outils s’offrent aux intéressés qui voudraient en savoir davantage sur leurs aïeux, tels des répertoires de baptêmes, de mariages et de sépultures, des dictionnaires généalogiques, des livres d’histoire nationale, régionale et locale, des rapports d’archivistes, des documents notariés ainsi que des cadastres révisés. « Nous avons aussi plusieurs annuaires scolaires en provenance de partout à travers l’Ontario, a expliqué Mme White. Nous en avons de Cornwall et même de Sudbury! » Le centre offre aussi la création d’arbres généalogiques.

Approximately 20 per cent of the Canadian population will experience some form of mental illness during their lifetime; very few families have not, or will not be touched by the effects of the pain, suffering and misunderstanding that mental illness brings. The Rotary Club of Cornwall Sunrise is therefore organizing its annual Amazing Rotary Rally. The winning team takes home the grand prize of $200 in gift certificates from local businesses. The fundraiser, which raises funds to support the newMental Health facility attached to the Cornwall Community Hospital, will take place on May 14, from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., followed by judging, refreshments, entertainment and awarding of prizes. Pictured are members of 2015’s winning team: Nancy Paquette, Russel Racine, Melanie Paquette, and Justin Wheeler. Additional information is available at www.amazingrotaryrally.com — supplied photo

Area employers are optimistic about their hiring plans for the rest of 2016, according to a recent survey of local employers. The recently conducted Employer One survey indicated that 26.9 per cent of the 1,013 area employers who responded expect to hire in the coming year, according to figures released by the Eastern Ontario Training Board. In addition, 43 per cent of survey respondents said they hired in 2015. «Every year, local employers have reported hiring far more people than they anticipated hiring, which is good news for residents of SDG and Prescott-Russell Counties,» said Diane Soucie, Labour Market Information analyst for the local board. «We’ve surveyed employers for three years now, and the hiring trend is positive and moving upwards.” “There have been some positive emerging trends,” saidDenis Thibault, executive director. “This survey found that the share of employers who had hard-to-fill jobs decreased, and more employers rated the availability of qualified workers in our five counties higher than last year.” Local employers optimistic

City of Cornwall. For the past eight years, she has served as the general manager and chief financial officer for the City, a key position that involves overseeing the annual City budget process and ensuring the City maintains a strong financial position. In this capacity, Adams oversaw financial plans for key infrastructure projects such as the Benson Centre and Wastewater Treatment Plant upgrade. “I think my biggest challenge will be to get up to speed with every project,” she explained following a short time of pondering. “We have to make sure that the shift is done as smoothly as possible.” Her leadership experience in the municipal sector is complemented by a 20-year private sector career in both the banking andmanufacturing industries. “I am really excited by this new
opportunity to work alongside great people to build Cornwall into an even greater City,” said the woman. “We have a lot of great attributes and I’m looking forward to building on our strengths.” Adams moved to Cornwall at the age of eight. She then lived in Toronto for 20 years. “We moved back to Cornwall in 2008,” she said. “It’s a great community with a lot of potential. We’re located between major big cities.” Chief administrative officers are executives who supervise the daily operations of a corporation and are ultimately responsible for its performance. Found across all industries and in both the non-profit and publicly traded sectors, these management professionals are experts at maintaining numerous functions of the businesses they serve.
From a conference room in the Civic Complex, overlooking Lamoureux Park, Maureen Adams stares at the many people playing soccer. “I’m looking forward to working with city council and city employees,” she said, smiling. The City recently announced the appointment of Adams as the new chief administrative officer, effective May 2, replacing Norm Levac. “City Council conducted a thorough search for the replacement of Mr. Levac and we are pleased with the result,” said Mayor Leslie O’Shaughnessy. “Maureen Adams is the perfect fit for continuingmany of the progressive initiatives currently underway and we are pleased that she has accepted this position.” Adams is no stranger to the

Embarking on a harrowing adventure St. Lawrence College Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) student, Justin Rivette-Bancroft, left for Moshi, Tanzania, on May 8, as part of a three-week cross-cultural nursing experience. The eager Cornwall native will be taking part in several health-related activities and will be back in his hometown on May 26. — photo Francis Racine
Africa, but I already know I’ll want to go back!” During the trip, students, hailing fromall three St. Lawrence College campuses, will be working at the Pamoja TunawezaWomen’s Centre. To make things even more special, Rivette-Bancroft is the only student from Cornwall taking part in the journey. Yet, although it seems like an ideal adventure, the student explained that he sure had to work hard to ensure his place amongst the twelve soon-to-be nurses. “To go there, we had to pay $6000,” he added. “I therefore had to do a lot of fundraising. It was hard at times, but it worked out.” His fundraiser efforts included a spaghetti dinner as well as the selling of several goods, such as clothing. While in Tanzania, the students will be working at the clinic and at outreach clinics in villages surrounding the city of Moshi, located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. They will be doing health promotion and
teaching, screening, and working with the local health care providers. Students participating in the trip are enrolled in a cross-cultural nursing elective, according to Donna Clarke-McMullen, professor in the BScN program at SLC, and accompanying the students on this trip. “This generation of students are globally interested, as they have grown up being aware of the inequities between developed and developing countries.There has been a growth of companies providing international opportunities for students to volunteer. One of the reasons we chose Pamoja, was that it provided global health care in a local capacity building and in an ethical manner.” To prepare for the trip, the towering student read about global health, cultural nursing practice, common illnesses he will encounter in Tanzania, and culture shock. In addition, he heard from guest speakers, prepared case studies and discussed important topics like travel safety and what
to expect in local culture. Rivette-Bancroft will also have to do a project on various topics such as the education system, political and health care system in Tanzania and how it compares to Canada. “This is a nursing focusedmission, so the activities involve outreachmedical caravans, health education, and worksite hypertension screening,” Clarke-McMullen said. “Learning opportunities include learning about public health and local health initiatives for women, a day spent withmothers in village homes.” Although the endeavour might be intimidating for some, the Cornwall native is quite eager to embark on the adventure. “I want to do travel nursing,” he explained. “I want to work either in Africa, South America or even China or the Middle East. I want to go wherever I’m needed.” Several organizations, such as Nurses without borders and the Red Cross, employ several travel nurses.

I had a future in the sport, but I knew I wanted to be a nurse.” Rivette-Bancroft is part of a 12-student, 2-teacher team that is currently travelling Moshi, in Tanzania, on a three-week cross cultural nursing experience. “We’re leaving May 8 and coming back on the 26,” he said, smiling. “I can’t wait.

TAURUS Traffic is a bit of a headache and com- munications are complicated. Try to find secondary roads, and don’t forget to charge your phone before leaving home in order to avoid delays. GEMINI You get the green light to undertake a project or an apprenticeship. Funding is made available to you, and you succeed in guaranteeing a good retirement for yourself in an unusual way. CANCER You feel like conquering the world. You are very determined to advance your cause and improve your lot in life. This could lead you to some kind of new beginning. LEO You need to be patient this week. You feel as if you are treading water and having to wait for everyone. Take time for yourself; this setback is necessary in order to make better progress afterwards. VIRGO You are responsible for an important meeting at work or an event that brings everyone together. You look after a lot of customers, which substantially increases your income. LIBRA One of your projects requires special attention. Delays are possible just about everywhere. On the phone, you are put on hold; at the grocery store, you choose the wrong line. SCORPIO The summer holidays are fast approaching and you should start plan- ning them this week. You may also need to reserve places at a day camp for your children. SAGITTARIUS A particular event is surprisingly revealing about your family or professional future. You are able to set more specific goals. CAPRICORN You receive a marriage proposal or other proof of commitment if your relationship is very recent. Your sweetheart confirms his or her love for you in a rather spectacular way. AQUARIUS Do not hesitate to apply the laws of attraction where your work is concerned. You will be able to realize your goals more quickly if you visualize them precisely. PISCES You are able to regain your self-esteem this week.
