To the editor: Re: Dave Windsor’s Letter of March 27, 2013. Thank you Mr. Windsor for taking time to express your disappointment and anger with City Council. I cannot wait for an election! Are the citizens of Cornwall angry enough to find capable people to run against the mayor and his six disciples? The overthrow of the entire South Glen- garry Council in 1991 is a fine example that this can be done. Only one councillor remained because, just before the election he came clean with the public. The ousted council had power problems and thought the people were not worthy of honesty or integrity. Many good people ran for the positions and won. South Glengarry taxpayers organized a year in advance. Kitchen meetings, letter writing and attending council meetings were some of the democratic used to revolt. Cornwall city council has cost us much money, grief and has jeopardized the safety of our seniors. They no longer have the right to be sitting at the table. Lorraine Laplante Cornwall City council members have lost their right to sit around the table The Cornwall and S. D. & G Racing Against Drugs will take place from April 9 to April 12 at the Cornwall Armories. Racing against drugs is a bilingual com- munity-based drug and alcohol awareness program which employs the sport of rac- ing to capture the attention of Grade 6 stu- dents. The program demonstrates the benefits of a drug and alcohol free lifestyle and of- fers various alternatives to students by teaching them the required skills to say no to drugs and alcohol. The program consists of a number of pit stops which are set up in a circular fashion. Representatives from various agencies use the pit stops to explain to students the ef- fects drugs and alcohol has on their body while under the influence of an impairing substance as well as enlightening them about healthy lifestyle choices.
