and coming back to Cornwall, Russell knew that she wanted to donate her time to the OSPCA. “I went to go see themand inquired about becoming a volunteer there,” she said. “I started offwith taking the dogs for walks and petting the cats. But I couldn’t do it. I would often cry because I wanted to save themall and bring them home with me.”
The woman therefore decided to take a different approach to volunteering. “One day, I asked the per- son in charge if they had a Facebook page,” Russell explained. “She replied no, so I built them one.” From there, Russell started organizing fundraiser events for the organization. She
is now a volunteer fundraiser. “It’s my job away frommy job,” she said jokingly. But the woman admits that her love of volunteering spanned for much longer than eight years. “When I was in high school, I was pretty much a part of every committee I could be on,” she added. “When I was at Queen’s, I helped kids read and learn.” Russell has now been volunteering with the shelter for eight years. “Being a volunteer with the OSPCA is extremely rewarding,” she pointed out. “It’s also very different.”

Much like a superhero, Christina Russell never stops. The full-time staff accountant is also what she calls a full time volunteer with the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals SD&G branch. “I’m an animal person,” she admitted, sitting in a small office at her workplace, Welch LLP. “I’ve always loved them.” Upon graduating fromQueen’s University

Under her watch, she created the Posing for Paws event which has quickly become the agency’s best grossing fundraiser. “I started it off as nothing more than an auction,” she confided. “But then I decided tomake it into a fashion show too.” Her goal was to amass more than last year’s event, which in itself is a tall order. For the third, Posing for Paws collected $16,000. “It was really busy this year,” Russell affirmed. At press time, the event had raised $14,000, but the volunteer was quick to point out that further funds will be collected from sponsors. “We’re going to end up with a lot more than $16,000!” The event was a success, considering that the first Posing for Paws collected $8,000. But although Russell is talented, she ad- mits that she has had to recruit the help of her friend, Angie Savard, also a volunteer with the OSPCA of SD&G, in order to or- ganize the event. “We’re both huge animal lovers,” she added. “She helps me out so much, it’s incredible!”
In addition to Posing for Paws, Russell also takes part in National Cupcake Day , an event held on a yearly basis across Ontario. “National Cupcake Day is celebrated throughout OSCPA branches,” she explained. “We simply bake hundreds of cupcakes and distribute them throughout the community.” Russell, who is
the OSPCA is a charity, we rarely receive funding,” she admitted. “The funds given to charities usually go to those for humans. I’m not saying we don’t receive funding, we do. But it usually goes towards the investigation department, where they look for animal abuse.” This therefore
Ontario. “We put cats wherever we could physically put them.” Russell says that the shelter actually takes a loss whenever they adopt out a feline, cit- ing that “people don’t consider the costs of having animals at the shelter. When you adopt one, they are spayed, they have all their shots and aremicro chipped. Plus, you have to factor in the costs of sheltering them and feeding them, sometimes for months.” The shelter has adopted several differ- ent ways to facilitate the adoption of their animals, such as partnerships with local pet stores. “There’s currently some of the shelter’s cats at Pets mart on Brookdale and another pet store in the Eastcourt Mall,” mentioned Russell. As she speaks of the many strays in the shelter as well as throughout the community, one can truly understand just howmuch the cause is close to Russell’s heart. It’s there- fore apparent that her quest to help local animals is not soon to be over and that it’s only beginning.

They are all great for helping out.” All the funds amassed during the event are donated straight to the OSPCA’s local branch. According to Russell, the animal shel- ter has a hard time with obtaining funds from any levels of governments. “Although

It means we just kept taking some and taking some until we are literally full.” To make matters more serious, the SD&G’s branch has been recorded as hav- ing the highest feline intake in the whole of

acharnement. Il a été nommé l’étoile du tournoi franco. « J’avais été choisi avant de partir pour le tournoi par les joueurs demon équipe et notre entraîneur, Luc Rozon », a-t-il déclaré. Le jeune homme se dit content de l’hon- neur qui lui a été décerné. « Ils m’ont choisi parce qu’ils ont dit que j’étais toujours aux pratiques et que j’étais toujours là pour mon équipe. » Alors, quel avenir se profile à l’horizon pour Nicolas suite à l’obtention de son diplôme d’études secondaires? « Bien, je vais continuer mes études à l’Université d’Ottawa, et je pense que je vais essayer de joindre leur équipe de volleyball, a-t-il affirmé. Mais je ne sais pas si je vais être capable de faire les tryouts . Les joueurs dans ses équipes-là sont vraiment bons. » Parions que Nicolas en fera partie.
Nicholas Mondoux est un athlète qui ne cesse de se surpasser lorsque vient le temps de relever de nouveaux défis. Il participe à presque toutes les pratiques qui sont à l’horaire et fait la promotion du sport dans son école. En effet, l’étudiant de 12 e année de l’École secondaire publique L’Héritage fait partie de presque toutes les équipes de sports de son école. « J’aime bien les sports, a-t-il fait valoir lors d’une entrevue. Ça a commencé lorsque je suis arrivé à L’Héritage en septième année. Je voulais faire partie d’une équipe sportive. » C’est ce qui a conduit Nicholas à joindre l’équipe de volleyball masculine de l’école. Depuis ce temps, il a pris part à quatre tournois franco, événement qui attire 21 équipes ainsi que des joueurs de volleyball de calibre national. « Ça fait peur des fois, lorsque l’on joue contre les joueurs de l’équipe du Canada ou les joueurs qui espèrent en faire partie, a affirmé l’étudiant. Ils mesurent tous plus de six pieds et peuvent sauter vraiment haut. En plus, ils frappent le ballon très fort », a conclu Nicholas en souriant. C’est lors de ce même tournoi que le jeune homme a été récompensé pour son

QUESTION 2: Cut in half by a border, which Canadian Prairie city has the unique peculiarity of being located in two provinces at once?

of Cretaceous amphibians, fish and reptiles have also been discov- ered en masse, thus painting the world’s most complete picture of the era known as the Age of Dinosaurs. No other place on earth better represents this chapter of pre-history than the badlands and prairies of Dinosaur Provincial Park, where more than 150 com- plete dinosaur skeletons have been discovered so far. In total, 500+ specimens have been removed from the site over the years and put on display in museums worldwide. In addition to its paleontological prominence, Dinosaur Provincial Park encompasses a unique and complex ecosystem in the pres- ent day. Prairie grasslands and riverside cottonwoods surround its famed badlands, an arid and striking area shaped by millions of years of sedimentation and glaciation. This combination of current natural significance and priceless scientific value earned the park a spot on UNESCO’s World Heritage Site list in 1979. If you’re planning on visiting Alberta, Dinosaur Provincial Park de- serves a top spot on your to-do list. Make your way 48 kilometres northeast of the city of Brooks to start your day at the park’s visitor centre, where you’ll find a small museum that’s nearly overflowing with fascinating finds. Guided tours into the badlands are avail- able and several trails allow you to explore at your own pace. And because it’s hard to squeeze 75 million years into a single day, 125 campsites are at your disposal should you wish to sleep where the giants of the past once did.
Warm rivers filled with fish, turtles and crocodiles flow into a large, shallow inland sea. A subtropical climate provides countless species with the perfect conditions in which to thrive. Birds, rep- tiles, amphibians and mam-
mals share the low-laying coastal plainwith some fifty-plus species of dinosaur. Welcome to eastern Alberta circa 75million years ago.
In June 1955 at the height of Alberta’s 50th jubilee celebrations, the provincial government established Dinosaur Provincial Park to protect the incredibly rich fossil beds found throughout the site for future research. Paleontologists were drawn to the area long be- fore the park’s creation, however, with dinosaur bones discovered at the site as early as the 1880s. The first large-scale excavation projects began a few decades later at the dawn of the twentieth century, and digs continue into the present day. Dinosaur fossils aren’t that rare, right? So why is this particular lo- cation so special? The answer lies not only in the incredible variety of fossils found in the park, but also in their exceptionally well- preserved state. Researchers have unearthed bones from every single dinosaur known to have existed during the late Cretaceous period inside the 75-square-kilometre park. The fossilized remains

Canada’s Swiss community
Today’s Switzerland is a great place to live, but the European country’s history isn’t all peace and Emmenthal. Indeed, until the mid-1850s, war and political instability reigned over the Swiss, who were sought-after by military generals due to the skills and discipline they acquired through years of combat. This explains why the earliest documented Swiss people in Canada were mercenaries serving the French crown. A small Swiss unit settled in Acadia in 1604; others came to New France with Samuel de Champlain. Among the latter group was Jacques Bizard, one of the most notable Swiss immigrants in 17th-century New France whose name was given to an island near Montreal (Île-Bizard).

Prince Edward Island’s flag
Prince Edward Island adopted its provincial flag in 1964. The design based on PEI’s coat of arms features three oak saplings representing the Island’s three counties and one large oak sym- bolizing Britain. The heraldic lion at the top is associated with the province’s namesake, Prince Edward, Duke of Kent.
Nearly 150,000 Canadians claim some degree of Swiss heritage. Evidence shows that their ancestors may have arrived in Canada as early as the 16th century. In the past themain reason to emigrate was the search for adventure and better living conditions; more recent Swiss immigrants cite the need to escape the confines of a small country as a motivation for coming to Canada. Because of Quebec’s French-speaking majority, many renowned Swiss-Canadian musicians, writers and academics are active in La Belle Province. On the artistic scene, Swiss-born conductor Charles Dutoit helped raise the Montreal Symphony Orchestra to the ranks of international renown. Dr. Erwin Diener, a notable English-speaking Swiss-Canadian, played a large role in establishing Canada’s first department of immunology at the University of Alberta in 1973. And on the culinary scene, you can thank the Swiss for bringing us cheesy delights like fondue and raclette, among other tasty treats.

Large donation for St. Lawrence College
Students, staff and the Board of Directors of the St. Lawrence College Foundation are celebrat- ing the largest philanthropic gift in the College’s history. St. Lawrence has received a $3 million gift from the Britton Smith Foundation in sup- port of the College’s fundraising campaign. The newly-unveiled Uncommon Campaign will raise $11.5 million over five years towards construction of a new Student Life and Innovation Centre, a new behavioural research centre and upgraded health care simulation labs on all three cam- puses. Contributions will also support student financial assistance and the purchase of state- of-the-art equipment in Cornwall, Brockville and Kingston. Launched on October 27, the Uncommon Campaign has already reached more than 50 per cent of its goal. “This is the largest contribution in the history of St. Lawrence College and we are deeply grateful," said Glenn Vollebregt, President and CEO, St. Lawrence College. – Francis Racine

Carving pumpkins for a good cause
Tristan Conrad and Stuart Harley, both players for the Cornwall Colts, were on-hand during the Hospice Pumpkin Carving contest.
Even local MPP JimMcDonell took part in the contest. Here we see him hard at work carving his pumpkin.
Around 15 people took part in the annual Hospice Pumpkin Carving contest, held at the Cornwall Square on October 28. Prior to the event, the participants had to pledge to raise $100 for the Cornwall Hospice. Under the watchful eyes of shoppers, the participants then had up to 45 minutes to create their jack-o-lantern. After the allotted time was up, each pumpkin was judged. Points were awarded for creativity, amount of money raised, and costume. Pictured is Kenny Gratton and Chris Rhode. — photos Francis Racine

grandissent, vivent, travaillent et vieillissent. Leur impact sur la santé est plus grand que n’importe quels soins de santé que les gens recevront tout au long de leur vie. C’est dans cette perspective que le BSEO examine les DSS pour tous les résidents de Cornwall et des cinq comtés de l’Est, dans le but de s’assurer que ces facteurs ont un effet positif au lieu de négatif dans la vie des gens. À la longue, le processus devrait hausser la qualité de vie des résidents de la région et diminuer la pression sur le système des soins de santé. Les gens qui désirent visionner la vidéo peuvent consulter la nouvelle section sur les DSS, sur le site Web du BSEO, en allant à www.bseo.ca, cliquant sur Santé et col- lectivité dans la fenêtre à gauche et ensuite sur Les déterminants sociaux de la santé dans la liste des sujets.
Le Bureau de santé de l’est de l’Ontario (BSEO) a lancé une nouvelle vidéo qui s’intitule Engageons le dialogue sur la santé. La vidéo a été produite dans le but de sensibiliser les résidents de Cornwall et des cinq comtés de l’Est aux divers facteurs, à l’extérieur du système de santé, qui ont un effet sur leur santé, et qui sont aussi appelés les déterminants sociaux de la santé (DSS). Quelques exemples de DSS sont la situation sociale et économique des résidents, leur niveau de scolarité, l’environnement dans lequel ils se trouvent chaque jour à la mai- son, à l’école ou au travail. Autrement dit, les DSS sont les circons- tances dans lesquelles les gens naissent,
A two-car collision took place at the intersection of Pitt and Ninth Street on October 26, causing the closure of the two busy streets for some time. It’s believed that one of the vehicles hit the other, which led the latter ramming into a traffic pole. None of the occupants were hurt, but they were still sent to the hospital as a precaution. The intersection was reopened later that day. — photo submitted by Jean-Marcel Le Moeligou

YOUR HOROSCOPE for the week of October 30 to November 5, 2016
THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: AQUARIUS, PISCES, AND ARIES.
ARIES Nothing’s stopping you from waiting a few days before making a decision, even if you think you have the right answer. New information will shed a different light on the matter. TAURUS Slightly changing your eating habits and learning to relax will help you avoid heartburn. Finding a better balance between your lifestyle and your state of mind will improve your health. GEMINI Your partner will be giving you extra attention. You’ll be waiting a little longer than expected for the results of a medical exam, so expect some anxiety. CANCER Your ability to influence others will be called upon. You might fill in for a vaca- tioning boss or replace a colleague for an undetermined period of time. LEO Your plan for a family vacation during the holidays is slowly beginning to take shape. However, certain details may take longer to fall into place. Expect to do a lot of travelling. VIRGO You’ll bring a lot of people together. You’ll be in charge of an event that will put your communication, organization and negotiation skills to the test. LIBRA Your work will require a lot of overtime. Thankfully, you’ll be generously com- pensated — if you’re able to adjust your schedule accordingly. SCORPIO Things finally start to pick up. Your friends put you to the test, one way or another. You’ll also receive funds for a special project. SAGITTARIUS Things will appear at a standstill for a brief moment, then everything will shift into high gear. Be mindful of your bills — to err is human, after all. CAPRICORN You’ll be in good company and your team will accomplish a great feat. You’ll also receive a reward or an honourable men- tion in front of a large crowd, thus raising your self-esteem. AQUARIUS You’ll have a great deal of success at work. An increase in clients brings you additional revenue. You might also dis- cover a new spiritual practice. PISCES You might soon be taking an unexpected trip. Avoid procrastinating and finish your obligations on time. Remember to take your time, though; slow and steady wins the race.
