do take place, then I want people to know why. I’m going to work to make sure we have a fire department that works well, and, as I’ve already promised, I amgoing to guar- antee environmental protection.” Dicaire noted that several potential sites are identified around the township which could allow for development of an asphalt plant without being in conflict with other neighbouring uses. Lalonde said he was satisfied with his work during the past three terms since he was first elected in 2003. “I think no one could have really asked for more,” he said. “I have no regrets, really, no regrets. We have listened to residents, but sometimes there are problems with getting some things done, and I did my best. I want to thank all the township staff in all the de- partments for their work. That is something I am going to miss, being in touch with the employees and also with the other mayors at the counties council. I really got very at- tached to that.” Charlebois showed courtesy in his defeat during his speech. “I am a man of faith,” he said, “and I ac- cept tonight’s results. It takes courage to be a candidate and the experience has been incredible. I have met lots of wonderful people, people who need listening to. It’s been a good campaign, and I congratulate M. Lalonde for his devotion through all the past years.” In the ward pools, incumbent René

Beaulne retained his Ward 1 seat with 668 votes. The fight for the second seat in the ward finished in a toe-to-toe struggle be- tween the incumbent Richard Brisebois and his challenger, Jean-Pierre Cadieux. Brise- bois lost the contest by a close margin with 411 votes to Cadieux’ 438. Brisebois had beaten Cadieux for the Ward 1 seat eight years ago and the Monday night finish makes a comeback for the former council- lor. In Ward 2, Jean-Claude Delorme retained his seat for a second term with 936 votes, followed by new council members Jeanne Doucet with 756. André Boudreault, who had tried a come- back for one of the ward seats finished with In the Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) four trustees did not have to worry about campaigning to retain seats as they won by acclamation.
