Pros and cons of a home equity line of credit
(NC) With the warm weather finally here, maybe you’re considering installing a pool or doing those home renovations you’ve been dreaming about. Perhaps you want to get away and an RV or a cottage are at the top of your wish list. It can seem like using the equity in your home is a quick and easy way to pay for such big expenses. While you may benefit in the short term, it’s also important to consider the longerterm risks about home equity lines of credit, often referred to as HELOCs. A HELOC is a form of credit that relies
on using your home as a guarantee that you’ll pay back the money you borrow. Unlike a loan, a HELOC lets you borrow money, pay it back and borrow it again up to a maximum credit limit.. The interest rates are variable and will change as interest rates go up or down. HELOC “pros” include: • They often offer easy access to credit. • They have lower interest rates than other types of credit, especially unsecured loans and credit cards. • You can pay back the money you borrow at any time without a penalty. • You can borrow as much as you want up to your available credit limit. HELOC “cons” include: • It takes discipline to pay off because you’re usually required to only pay the monthly interest charges. • Large amounts of available credit can make it easier to over-spend and carry debt for a long time. • You may have to pay off your entire HELOC if you want to switch your mortgage to another lender.

Chapleau Emphasizing the child before subject Moments content always --- Muriel E Morris by
Michael J. Morris When I was an editor at the Chatham Daily News more than 50 years ago, my mother, Muriel E Morris, decided to come from Chapleau and spend the summer with me. To keep herself busy during the day, she decided to take a summer course in education. The times they were a changing in the late sixties in more ways than one, and education was included. Mom, who had taught school for 34 years at the time became increasingly frustrated with the new thinking in education being set out by the professor. One day the professor said in effect that teach er s mu s t " acco u n t f or indiv id u al differences" in children and used some other trendy words in his lecture. Mom, who had not said a word in class all summer, raised her hand to ask him a question. "Don't you mean that all children are special with needs?" she asked. I don't recall his reply to Mom, but I do know the rest of the class agreed with her. After spending her entire teaching career treating each and every child as special with needs, Mom retired two years later after teaching at Chapleau Public School and at Kekabeka Falls, shortly after I returned home to teach. Mom taught elementary school and emphasized the child before the subject content always. Obviously, she had no use for the labelling of children, or anyone else for that matter. Let me give you an example that involved me. I was teaching Economics at Chapleau High School, and almost all the students in my class failed a test. I was having coffee with Mom and pontificating against my class in typical teacher fashion. Mom stopped my little rant, made some suggestions including that maybe I scrap the course content as I had prepared it, and start over. She also suggested I might want to think about finding another career. "Start where the students are, not where you are," she recommended, adding that she didn't have the foggiest notion what I was talking about when I tried to explain the material on the test.
I took her advice and we started over. In fact, as Junior "B" hockey was very big in Chapleau at the time, I used a hockey rink to teach the factors of production. Some years later, a school board member, on a tour of the school, stuck his head in Room 104 and asked me, "Is there where they teach hockey?" I replied yes it was and offered to demonstrate. He didn't take me up on the offer. Today, more than ever, I believe my mother was right, and I was so fortunate to finish my teaching career at College of the Rockies where I helped found a grad program in new media communications which was very student centred. I will always be indebted to Dr. Wm. Berry Calder, then the president of COTR, who believed that the future is now in 1994 and supported me as we pioneered web-based communications when many told me that email would never really catch on. One of my COTR faculty friends stopped me in the hall one day and advised that email would never catch on. I see him the odd time and ask if he sent or received an email recently!!! This is in 2022. In 1995 I was privileged to attend a conference where the keynote speaker was Dr. Nicholas Negroponte then the head of the Media Lab at MIT. Dr Negroponte told us that by the Year 2000 all the information we would ever need would be on a handheld device with the information So true. In fact, about the only reason use a laptop is to write Chapleau
Moments. I could write it on my "phone,” but my aging eyes won't let me!! The advances in internet technology since I retired in 2000 have been phenomenal, and today I think of the possibilities for a real student-centred education system where it is accepted that each child is special with needs. I would be most interested to hear from you. Please comment or email me at mikejmorris41@outlook.com

Simple tips for taking care of a senior pet (NC) Aging is a fact of life that we can’t ignore forever. While many of us realize we need to make some changes to our lifestyle to enjoy life to the fullest, we don’t always realize that sometimes our pets might also need a little help to enjoy their golden years. Here are some steps to consider as your pets age. Active living Maintaining an active lifestyle is important for your senior pets’ health and happiness. As they age, daily walks are an easy, low-impact way for them to get some exercise. Just remember, elderly dogs are often more sensitive, so it’s important to make sure their
leashes or harnesses are comfortable throughout your walk. Nutrition Many pets can maintain their regular diet as they age. However, as pets get older, the ways in which they eat may need to be adapted. For example, older pets may need to have their meals at regular times, in which case an automatic pet feeder may help keep their meals on schedule and their portions controlled. It’s also generally recommended that pets need to drink 1 oz (30 ml) of water per 1 lb of body weight every day. Pet fountains are a great way to provide them with fresh flowing water to keep them hydrated.
Pet-proofed home There are a few changes you can make in your home that will improve your pet’s quality of life. Setting up a ramp or steps can help your pets reach their favourite spots, like a bed that may be too high. PetSafe, for example, offers systems that allow you to change from pet steps to a pet ramp in a flash. It’s an easy way to reduce the risk of injury. Keeping a ramp available to get in and out of the car is also important for senior dogs, especially if they have regular car rides for vet visits or trips to the cottage. Find out about other ways you can improve care for your senior pets at petsafe.ca.
NDP will protect students' mental health Andrea Horwath and the NDP will help post-secondary students care for their mental health with a free and easily accessible mental health care. “University, college and trade school is a stressful time — it's always a stressful time, full of change,” said Horwath. “Right now, a silent epidemic of mental health struggles is making life so much harder on students and young adults. Students are trying to cope with anxiety, stress, loss and grief, and getting used to being on campus after years of isolation. And students think there is no way they'll ever be able to afford the kind of counselling or support they need — so they suffer in silence, thinking there's no where to turn. “But mental health care is health care, and we shouldn't have to pay for it. Together, we can fix it — so in Ontario, students will always have someone to turn to, and they'll get mental health

care with their OHIP card, not a credit card.” The NDP plan to help university students includes: · Expanding OHIP coverage to include universal basic mental health care, and introducing legislation that recognizes mental health is as important as physical health. · Developing province-wide, traumainformed standards to respond to campus sexual violence and prevent a continued patchwork of different policies across different institutions. · Investing in mental health professionals and programs on post secondary campuses. · Creating Mental Health and Addictions Ontario, a new co-ordinating organization that will take the lead on identifying and publicly reporting on Ontarians' mental health needs.
Doug Ford cut $2 billion from mental health and addictions services over his term in office, and he cut OSAP. Under the Liberals, wait times for mental health services grew, and people who needed care often didn't get it. “Together, we can stop the Conservative and Liberal cuts, fix mental health care, and give students their best chance at a healthy, happy future, regardless of the size of their bank accounts.” g and publicly reporting mental health needs, developing a comprehensive wait list for services, bring in province-wide mental health standards, creating a basket of services, and making sure that mental health and addiction programs are delivered across Ontario.

Suite de P.4 encore en fois ligués pour voter contre une solution sensée qui aiderait les Canadiens à payer leurs factures. On ne peut certes pas s'attendre à ce que les conservateurs s'opposent au lobby pétrolier, mais ce que font concrètement les libéraux pour lutter contre les changements climatiques ne correspond pas à ce qu'ils disent. Ils prétendent vouloir atteindre la carboneutralité d'ici 2050, mais ils achètent des pipelines et financent une technologie de captage du carbone qui n'a pas fait ses preuves. Ils disent vouloir éliminer les subventions aux énergies fossiles d'ici 2023, mais ils votent contre une motion qui propose de le faire, ils financent de nouveaux projets pétroliers et gaziers et ils garantissent des prêts à l'industrie pétrolière. Ils promettent depuis des années une mesure législative pour assurer une transition équitable, mais ils n'ont pas encore présenté de mesures favorisant la transition des travailleurs de l'industrie pétrolière et gazière vers une économie axée sur l'énergie propre. Nous devons de toute urgence nous employer à réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre. Ce serait avantageux pour tous. Nous pourrions ainsi réduire le coût de l'énergie et rendre l'environnement plus sain. Pour cela, toutefois, il faut la volonté politique nécessaire. Les mots ne suffisent pas : il faut des mesures concrètes.

Des conseils pour voyager sans soucis
(EN) Puisque nous entrevoyons la possibilité de voyager à nouveau, il est tout naturel de vouloir que nos voyages se déroulent sans anicroche, aussi bien lors de l’enregistrement à l’aéroport qu’aux escales et au passage aux douanes. Au cas où vous vous sentiriez un peu rouillé, voici quelques conseils pour faire un voyage sans tracas. Informez-vous des règles locales Certaines personnes planifient leurs voyages dans les moindres détails et bien à l’avance, tandis que d’autres préfèrent improviser. Dans un cas comme dans l’autre, si vous vous rendez dans un autre pays, assurez-vous de connaître le code de conduite de base. Vérifiez à
l’avance si des règles particulières s’appliquent à l’entrée au pays ou pendant votre séjour là-bas, comme un test PCR négatif ou le port de manches longues et de pantalons longs dans les lieux sacrés. Prenez connaissance de ces règles et, quelques jours avant votre départ, voyez si elles sont encore en vigueur ou si elles ont changé. Accordez-vous du temps Il est peut-être ennuyeux d’arriver à l’aéroport des heures à l’avance, mais c’est la marche à suivre à presque toutes les étapes d’un voyage. Que vous enregistriez vos bagages ou que vous vous disposiez à partir en excursion, le fait d’arriver plus tôt vous évitera les foules et vous épargnera de l’argent et du temps précieux dans les files d’attente. Vérifiez aussi en ligne les informations comme les vols, les hôtels et les attractions. Ainsi, vous économiserez du temps et serez plus détendu durant vos vacances. N’apportez que le nécessaire En règle générale, il faut éviter d’apporter plus de bagages qu’on peut en transporter. Voilà une façon de rester autonome, et c’est utile en cas d’urgence. Si vous prenez l’avion, optez pour des mallettes de cabine afin d’éviter les frais et l’attente
pour récupérer votre bagage enregistré lorsque vous serez arrivé à destination. Utilisez un fourretout pour vos articles personnels et vous aurez sous la main des objets pratiques, comme un chandail, des collations et vos appareils durant le vol. Pensez à votre équipement Outre la planification de votre garde-robe de voyage, pensez à l’équipement que vous souhaitez apporter avec vous. Les dispositifs comme les tablettes, les appareils photos et les chargeurs sont des objets encombrants qui prennent beaucoup de place. Si vous voulez prendre de superbes photos de voyage sans vous soucier du poids à transporter, songez à apporter un appareil photo sans miroir pour profiter de la qualité d’un appareil reflex mono-objectif numérique sans l’encombrement. Choisissez un étui de transport léger et résistant aux chocs, aux égratignures et aux conditions météo imprévisibles.

L’Année du jardin mérite d’être célébrée (EN) Bien que nous célébrions chaque printemps le retour de la saison du jardinage, les célébrations de cette année pourraient être encore plus spéciales. Le Conseil canadien du jardin et Collectivités en fleurs invitent les jardiniers individuels et les municipalités à célébrer le jardinage au Canada. Que vous soyez un jardinier de longue date ou que vous ayez seulement commencé à pratiquer ce loisir pendant la pandémie, l’Année du jardin est une excellente occasion de développer votre intérêt et vos compétences. Les jardins et le jardinage comportent un large éventail de bienfaits. La création d’un plus grand nombre d’espaces verts urbains est bénéfique pour la durabilité à long terme. Par exemple, les plantes et les jardins produisent de l’oxygène, séquestrent le carbone et atténuent l’effet d’îlot de chaleur dans les zones urbaines. Le jardinage présente également des avantages pour la santé individuelle des jardiniers et des avantages plus larges pour la santé de la société, en créant des espaces où nous pouvons tous profiter d’une vie active. De plus, les jardins et le jardinage génèrent d’importants avantages économiques,
notamment en attirant des résidents et des visiteurs dans les collectivités de tout le pays. Mais faire pousser des pelouses, des fleurs et des légumes sains peut s’avérer difficile. Les jardiniers sont confrontés à des défis semblables à ceux des agriculteurs, qui doivent surmonter les menaces que représentent les insectes, les mauvaises herbes et les maladies afin de produire des aliments sains et sûrs pour les Canadiens. Une planification et une gestion minutieuses sont importantes pour réussir. Lorsque les ravageurs menacent votre pelouse ou votre jardin, il existe des outils antiparasitaires sûrs, efficaces et spécialement conçus pour être utilisés par les particuliers. Célébrons tous l’Année du jardin et les nombreux avantages que les jardins apportent à nos collectivités.
