La tempête de vent laisse sa marque
Aucun des poteaux n’est tombé, mais le service des incendies de Hawkesbury a installé des points de contrôle de la circulation de chaque côté de cette section de route, pour s’assurer que les conducteurs ralentissent et se déplacent à un rythme régulier lors de leur passage, jusqu’à ce que les équipes d’électricité arrivent sur les lieux pour régler la situation.
Des câbles d’ancrage ont été installés sur chacun des poteaux inclinés, à titre de mesure temporaire pour les empêcher de pencher davantage. Les travaux de remplacement des poteaux ont commencé plus tard dans l’après-midi de vendredi.

Free bus rides on the PR Transpo bus
“We want people to try out PR Transpo and to adopt it,” said Isabelle Peladeau, PR Transpo project manager, during the Wednesday official launch of the new regional public transit service (see photo).
Residents will be able to ride PR Transpo buses at no charge until November 15. After that the regular fare system is in effect.
The United Counties of Prescott-Russell (UCPR) set up the regional transit program through its economic development and tourism department after success in getting a $2 million provincial grant to support public transit initiatives.
PR Transpo will operate on 12 fixed routes, with several posted stops in all eight municipalities. The regional transit service will operate Monday to Saturday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. There is no Sunday bus service and also no service on specific statutory holidays like Christmas and New Year’s Day.

Store edibles properly, says EOHU
The Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) is therefore advising local residents take ample precautions when storing these products. Legally purchased edibles, extracts, topicals, and THC-based vapour products could be available to the public at the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS) as early as mid-December.
“We’re taking this opportunity to remind the public that if they purchase or make cannabis edibles, they must pay close attention to where and how they store them,” said Dr. Paul Roumeliotis, Medical Officer of Health at the EOHU. “Food or candy that contains cannabis can be very dangerous for children and pets.”
Edible cannabis products can look like food or candy, they may be attractive to children and youth. Residents who purchase or make their own edible cannabis products should, according to the EOHU, store them in child-proof containers, label the products to ensure others know what they contain and store them out of sight and out of reach.
