The calendar and the weather have gifted us with one last week of summer. With school not starting until next week, children and teachers have this extra space. We can all put off the regular routines of meetings and fall programs, and enjoy warm days.

Chris Albinati, Bruce-Grey-Owen Sound Green Party candidate, offered the following statement on the current situation.
"I fully support the Unist'ot'en Camp as they assert and exercise their laws over their unceded territory as part of their inherent right to self-determination as Indigenous peoples. I acknowledge that the Unist'ot'en are not "protesting" as the media and other institutions like the RCMP have attempted to portray, but that they are rightfully occupying their land.
Bruce-Grey-Owen Sound MPP Bill Walker says he is concerned that the cost of living in Ontario is getting costlier every day. He says the increase is thanks in part to the provincial Liberal government's "nickel-and-dime" hikes to user fees like increased fees for driver and vehicle licences and new user fees on all hunting and angling licenses.
"The taxpayers will not receive any direct benefit in service from these fee increases." says Walker, adding that the 400-plus user fees net the province about $2 billion a year in extra revenues.
Walker says his party most recently demanded...
