Quebec calling for more vaccination in 18-40 age group Quebec open to searching residential school sites for possible graves The Canadian Press Quebec\u2019s Indigenous Affairs Minister says the province is open to searching the grounds of former residential schools for graves if survivors and their families are in favour.Ian Lafreniere says his of?ce has started reaching out to families, Indigenous leaders, and his federal counterpart to discuss the possibility.The discovery of the remains of 215 children on the grounds of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School in British Columbia has prompted a fresh wave of scrutiny of the treatment of Indigenous people across Canada, and Lafreniere says Quebec must confront its own role in that history.He says he has seen no evidence that there are unmarked graves on the grounds of the six former residential schools that operated in the province, but he cannot exclude the possibility.His government has already tabled a bill that would allow relatives of Indigenous children who disappeared or died in health-care facilities to access information about their loved ones.Lafreniere said the government isn\u2019t ruling out any potential actions in the future to ensure Indigenous families get answers, including holding a public inquiry if necessary.MATTHEW MCCULLY By Gordon Lambie On Tuesday afternoon Quebec Premier Francois Legault called on people 18-40 years old in the province who have not already signed up for or received a ?rst dose of a COVID-19 vaccine to do so within the next week.Noting a slow-down in the rate at which people in that younger age group are being vaccinated at the same time that the province is preparing to start moving up the second-dose schedule, the premier said that just because things seem to be going well is no reason to put off getting a shot.\u201cGet your ?rst dose as soon as possible, we need you to get back to our normal life,\u201d Legault said.According to Health Minister Christian Dubé the average coverage in the 18-44 group is at around 65 per cent but has seen a decrease in response within the last week or so.With that number at least 10 per cent below the government\u2019s minimum goal, he said that new initiatives are being explored to try to encourage the vaccine hesitant to register.In the Eastern Townships, one of those measures is a daily distribution of drop-in vaccination tickets at clinics across the region.Beginning Tuesday and continuing through Friday, June 4, a pre-set number of doses will be available without an appointment at speci?c vaccination clinics in Sherbrooke, Val-des-Sources, Magog, East Angus, Lac Mégantic, Coaticook, CONT\u2019D ON PAGE 3 PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER PressReader.com +1 604 278 4604

MIX OF SUN AND CLOUD HIGH 30 LOW 17 Hand in Hand ALS Awareness Month The Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Society of Quebec is a non- pro?t community organization dedicated to supporting people with ALS and their families at every stage of the disease, raising awareness with the public and government of?cials and funding crucial research are also part of its mission.Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig\u2019s disease or maladie de Charcot, is a neuromuscular disorder that affects the nerve cells and spinal cord progressively leading to the paralysis of the muscles.ALS progresses rapidly and is usually fatal within ?ve years following the initial diagnosis.Jean-Martin Charcot (known as the founder of modern neurology) was a French neurologist and was the ?rst to describe the symptoms that de?ne ALS, leading to its French name: Maladie de Charcot.In the United States the disease is more commonly known as Lou Gehrig\u2019s Disease, after the famous baseball player who died of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.The disease is characterized by the degeneration of precise nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.Little by little, this deterioration affects the brain\u2019s capacity to move and control voluntary muscles.With a lack of stimulation to these muscles by the brain, they begin to atrophy, leading to progressive paralysis.ALS is the most commonly known and common type of motor neuron disease, which also includes primary lateral sclerosis, as well as various forms of paralysis and partial paralysis.Currently, about 2,500 to 3,000 people in Canada suffer from this disease and two new cases are reported per 100,000 people every year.This disease is not contagious and most of the reported cases are sporadic: meaning that no one in the affected person\u2019s immediate or extended family has had ALS.The disease is hereditary in only 5 to 10% of cases, and mostly affects people between the ages of 40 and 75; cases in children are extremely rare.In Quebec there are currently more than 500 people living with ALS.Over the last 5 years, there were 1,000 deaths and 950 newly diagnosed members at ALS Quebec.For every person living with ALS, ALS Quebec supports approximately three caregivers.To date, there is no treatment to signi?cantly prolong the life of patients with ALS.Hope lies in the important actions of associations, volunteers, ambassadors and researchers who all share the same mission of eradicating this devastating disease.Fundraising events and the generous contributions of donors support patient services and research in ?nding the most effective treatments for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, and eventually a cure.June is ALS awareness month and, speci?cally, June 2 has been declared Lou Gehrig Day, recognizing the anniversary of the famous baseball player\u2019s death in 1941.Eighty years after that day, the causes of ALS are still unknown and the diagnosis is still terminal, with 80% of people dying within two to ?ve years of being diagnosed.But with many promising therapies in later-stage clinical trials, there is signi?cant momentum.It is time to team up and to #StrikeOutALS.The Lou Gehrig Mosaic of Hope Today, Lou Gehrig remains an inspiration and a source of strength, humility and courage for the thousands of Quebecers affected by ALS.On June 2nd, and throughout ALS Awareness Month, ALS Quebec will pay tribute to the baseball legend and all families affected by ALS in its unique way.\u201cWe are thrilled to have teamed up with several former Montreal Expos such as Larry Walker, Vladimir Guerrero, Felipe and Moises Alou, sports, media & entertainment personalities, who will lend their support to help strike out ALS,\u201d said Claudine Cook, Executive Director of ALS Quebec.The Lou Gehrig Mosaic of Hope was launched on June 1st at http://als-quebec.ca/ You can support the ALS Society of Quebec and ALS Awareness Month by making a donation, uploading a photo and message on the Lou Gehrig Mosaic of Hope, by voicing your support on social media using the hashtag #StrikeOutALS and tagging @ SLAQuebec on June 2nd 2021, or by registering, fundraising, or donating

release, Quebec Solidaire also proposed suspending the $30 million loan granted to Demers horticultural productions as long as the temporary workers employed by them are not housed in safe and healthy facilities.CONT\u2019D FROM PAGE 1 Windsor, Granby, and Cowansville.Details on the speci?c timing, location, and number of shots available can be found (in French) at https://www.santeestrie.qc.ca/nouvelle/vaccin- contre-la-covid-19/.According to Jean Delisle, director of the local vaccination campaign, more than 79 per cent of people in the Townships have set up an appointment or received their ?rst dose, and 5.9 per cent are now considered completely vaccinated.He shared that there is great enthusiasm in the 12-17 age group, where 57 per cent either have an appointment or are vaccinated, but he added that there is room for more in their 20s to sign up, as that age group has plateaued around 60 per cent coverage.Canada\u2019s National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI), meanwhile, released new recommendations stating that either the AstraZeneca/COVISHIELD COVID-19 vaccine or an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine product may be offered for a second dose for those who received AstraZeneca for a ?rst dose.The notice from the committee refers to mixing doses as \u201cethically justi?able,\u201d based on the fact that Canada is anticipating large enough supplies of mRNA vaccines in the summer months to make up the difference.The NACI notes that recent Canadian surveys have found respondents more comfortable with mRNA vaccines compared to viral vector vaccines, but intention to vaccinate has been increasing despite differences in comfort levels between vaccines.A study in late April found that most participants were more comfortable with P?zer (92%) and Moderna (90%) vaccines, and comfort levels for AstraZeneca have increased since early April from 41% to 52%.Of those who were uncomfortable with the viral vector vaccines, 37% reported they would accept a vaccine if offered, 34% would reject, and 29% were unsure.The most recent Canadian studies report that intention to vaccinate is increasing and currently varies between 66-80% in the general public and 57-82% in healthcare workers across Canada As of Tuesday morning, the province reported a total of 5,648,992 vaccination doses administered out of 6,376,347 doses received in total.This accounts for ?rst-dose coverage in 61.3 per cent of the population and adequate coverage in 7.1 per cent.304,869 people have received a ?rst dose in the Eastern Townships, accounting for 60.3 per cent of the regional population, with 29,580 having received a second dose so far.Aside from the vaccine de?cit, Legault said that the situation in Quebec continues to improve to the point where, as of next Monday, there will be no red alert zones left in the province, and several regions in the province will be able to shift to either yellow or green alert status.While hailing this as good news, he underlined the fact that it is to be expected that there might be slight rise in cases as restrictions are lifted, particularly in the Montreal area due to the population density.Quebec reported only 208 new cases provincewide on Tuesday, bringing the total number of people infected to 370,527, with 3,609 active cases.There were ?ve new deaths, for a total of 11,133 since the start of the pandemic The number of people in hospital for COVID-19 decreased by eight, to 354, and the number of people in intensive care decreased by three, to 86.The Eastern Townships reported 28 new cases and 298 active cases alongside no new deaths.As of Tuesday morning there were 29 people hospitalized and one person in intensive care, a very slight decrease from the previous day.Vaccination Federal government promotes greener homes grant By Gordon Lambie Compton-Stanstead MP Marie- Claude Bibeau paid a visit to Sherbrooke-based window and door manufacturer Profenex on Tuesday in order to promote the launch of the new Canada Greener Homes Grant for energy ef?cient renovations.Meant to help homeowners improve the energy ef?ciency of their homes, the grant entitles homeowners to up to $600 to cover the cost of assessments from an EnerGuide certi?ed energy advisor and then up to $5,000 for renovations to improve any energy ef?ciency issues highlighted in the assessment.\u201cI was surprised to discover that Houses and buildings are responsible for 18% of greenhouse gas emissions in Canada,\u201d Bibeau said, explaining that the hope is that a large-scale program to improve overall energy ef?ciency will help to cut that percentage.Renovations included in the program vary from the installation of insulation to air sealing, changing to more energy ef?cient doors and windows, heating and air conditioning systems such as heat pumps, smart thermostats and the installation of solar panels.To bene?t from the grant, Quebec homeowners must register with the provincial government\u2019s Rénoclimat program at https:// transitionenergetique.gouv.qc.ca/en/ residential/programs/renoclimat.Information on the Canada Greener Homes Grant is available online at https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/energy- eff iciency/homes/canada-greener- homes-grant/23441.The program does also have a telephone line, 1-833-674- 8282, but online registration is being recommended because of high call volume.Michel Langlois who works for Profenex in customer service and who gave Bibeau the tour, said that the company is the only one in the region that offers direct-from the manufacturer sales.The company is currently in the middle of an expansion to its factory space.Although he noted that much of the company\u2019s sales are for new construction, Langlois acknowledged the value of programs like the greener homes grant for people looking to do renovation projects in a time when the cost of construction materials has increased signi?cantly due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.GORDON LAMBIE Compton-Stanstead MP Marie-Claude Bibeau with Michel Langlois of Profenex Quebec Solidaire says repatriate Temporary Foreign Worker Program Record Staff In the wake of damning revelations about the housing conditions of temporary foreign workers employed by Les productions horticoles Demers, Quebec solidaire is urging the CAQ to repatriate the federal government\u2019s Temporary Foreign Worker Program and offer open work permits in order to better protect workers from potential abuses on the part of employers.In a statement release on Tuesday, Laurier-Dorion MNA Andrés Fontecilla, Quebec Solidaire\u2019s critic on immigration, diversity and inclusion explained that the temporary workers out in Quebec ?elds have closed work permits.\u201cThis means that their hands are tied to their employers, who sometimes take advantage of them to make them live in unacceptable conditions,\u201d Fontecilla said in a press release.\u201cAs soon as these workers no longer have an employment relationship with the farm where they work, they ?nd themselves in an uncomfortable situation in Quebec.The Legault government has a moral responsibility to protect their rights,\u201d he said, calling on Minister of Immigration, Francization and Integration, Nadine Girault to repatriate the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and offer open work permits and the possibility of changing jobs to prevent abuse.Fontecilla also pushed for the tightening standards for the housing of temporary workers by allowing the CNESST to conduct inspections to verify the compliance of adequate housing, even if accommodations are not located directly on their work site.In a press release, Quebec Solidaire also proposed suspending the $30 million loan granted to Demers horticultural productions as long as the temporary workers employed by them are not housed in safe and healthy facilities.\u201cDormitories full to bursting, showers without hot water, mould everywhere: the facts revealed yesterday are a disgrace for Quebec.This is not the way to take care of workers,\u201d commented Rouyn- Noranda-Témiscamingue MNA Émilise Lessard-Therrien.\u201cSince yesterday, I have been receiving testimonies from farmers in my region who are making great efforts to house and welcome foreign workers in a digni?ed and safe manner.They are doing their part.Now the government must do its part and send a clear message: there is zero tolerance for unsanitary conditions and exploitation of workers,\u201d Lessard-Therrien said.PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER

campus: A thousand-year-old story By Jean-Marie Dubois (Université de Sherbrooke), Derek Booth (retired professor of Bishop\u2019s University) and Gérard Coté (Lennoxville-Ascot Historical and Museum Society) Few people know about Butternut Island located in the Saint-François River near the mouth of Massawippi River.At the request of the City of Sherbrooke, the island\u2019s name was made of?cial in 2011 by the Commission de toponymie du Québec.The name \u201cButternut\u201d comes from existence of numerous butternut trees (Juglans cinera L.) on the island.The name, however, was designated as early as 1870 when Bishop\u2019s College School (BCS) built a footbridge linking the island to the bank of Massawippi River facing Bishop\u2019s College, now Bishop\u2019s University.At the time BCS was located on the campus of Bishop\u2019s College and Butternut Island was then used as a playing ?eld for cricket and football, among other things, most likely until the mid- 1910s.For a short period, Bishop\u2019s University re-installed a footbridge during the 1970s with the goal of creating a park adjacent to the campus, but the project was eventually abandoned, probably due to the erosion of the island\u2019s shores.In fact, the Saint-François River has continually eroded the island\u2019s north side since the 1960s and the channel between the island and the southern banks has been ?lling with sand since the mid-1970s.The north side suffered serious erosion between 1985 and 1988, then again between 1995 and 1998, so that today only about half of the surface area still remains.Archeologists refer to the site as Île au Massacre (Massacre Island), a name given by archaeologist father René Levesque in 1962.His justi?cation for the name was based on the legend that Major Robert Rogers was said to have massacred several Abenakis in 1759 on his return from a punitive expedition against the Village of Odanak.Beyond the legend, René Levesque reported to have discovered fragments of Amerindian pottery in 1962 that date back to the Late Woodland Period, more than a thousand years ago.In 1989, an inventory was carried out on the island and on neighbouring banks of the Saint-François River by a ?rm of archeologists at the request of the Town of Lennoxville and the Ministère des affaires culturelles du Québec that also con?rmed the ?ndings along with pottery and a number of stone tools.Map situating Butternut Island Nuts of the butternut tree Butternut Island in 2002: we can see falling trees on north bank of the island Butternut Island near 2019:

.ORIGINAL COPY .ORIGINAL COPY .ORIGINAL COPY .ORIGINAL COPY .ORIGINAL COPY COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW By Michael Boriero When Rikki Bowles, born and raised in East Farnham, was of?cially named head coach of the McGill University women\u2019s basketball team last week, she was struck by a range of emotions, but above all, she was humbled.\u201cI de?nitely feel privileged and it\u2019s sort of more than a job, if I could say, because it\u2019s a program that I love and care very much about, you know, aside from it being my job,\u201d she said.Bowles played for the McGill Martlets for ?ve years before graduating with a degree in physical education in 2010.She has been involved in coaching ever since, with brief stints at College Brébeuf and Vanier College.However, she is a Martlet through and through.After spending one season as head coach at Brébeuf, Bowles left to join her former McGill team as an assistant coach in 2011, working alongside long-time head coach Ryan Thorne.Bowles stayed in that position for seven years.And during that time, she also taught physical education at The Study, an all-girls private elementary and high school in Montreal, and served as head coach for the school\u2019s basketball team.She always knew that she wanted to be involved in basketball, but she never really thought about taking over the helm of the McGill women\u2019s team until they won the 2017 Bronze Baby national championship.In that moment, Bowles knew she wanted more.\u201cWhen the opportunity came up to go head coach at Vanier, it was a really dif?cult decision to leave McGill.I\u2019ve been here for a long time, but I thought getting some head coaching experience at that point would be best for me moving forward,\u201d said Bowles.She spent one season, 2017-2018, as head coach at Vanier College, before making another return to McGill.However, this time she came back as full-time coach under the Women in Sports program, which prepares candidates for full-time roles in coaching.After Thorne took over the university\u2019s men\u2019s program last year, McGill Athletics & Recreation Executive Director Geoffrey Phillips turned to Bowles, a natural ?t for head coach, having been mentored by Thorne for almost 10 years.With plenty of coaching experience under her belt, Bowles is ready to prove her mettle next season.The Martlets have eight returning players, she explained, and ?ve players committed to joining the program.She wants to focus on ball movement and quick transitions.\u201cQuebec is a small conference in terms of the number of teams, but very talented across the board, so if your team doesn\u2019t work hard it\u2019s going to be very dif?cult in this league, whether you have tons of talent or you\u2019re a little less talented,\u201d said Bowles.She is eager to implement her own system.As an assistant coach, there is an expectation to uphold and reinforce the head coach\u2019s strategy, Bowles continued, but coaching at Vanier, and then again at McGill, allowed her to explore her own coaching philosophy.The issue for most sports teams over the past year has been motivation.Student-athletes have struggled to stay active and engaged in their team.But she believes that once they are back together, in the same room, without restrictions, the team will be ready to play.\u201cWell, I think everyone is different, you know, it\u2019s hard to generalize to a 14- or 15-woman roster,\u201d said Bowles.\u201cI think some may need the motivation and part of that I think being back in the gym, being around the team, that might help with it.\u201d Her time in the Eastern Townships shaped most of her basketball career.Bowles\u2019 parents met in high school and played for their school team.Her brother played at John Abbot College in Montreal, where she soon followed to also pursue basketball at a higher level.She remembers her days in East Farnham fondly.There is a sense of community in a small town, Bowles said, everyone knows each other and is in some way invested in their life.She also reminisced about the ways her parents would encourage her to play basketball.\u201cWe had a basketball court in the backyard that, I remember, on the deck my father put a spotlight [on] so I could even play in the dark that shone onto the court and there was just enough light in the summertime to play until whenever,\u201d said Bowles.Now almost 36 years old, she is entering another phase in her basketball career.And Bowles understands the importance of being a female head coach, something she never had growing up.McGill has started to emphasize the need to diversify coaching staffs, she noted.Bowles told The Record that it wasn\u2019t until 2017 that she really started to re?ect on her past, playing for all-male coaching staffs.She said it likely had an impact on her personal.She wants to inspire her squad and show them that anyone can be a head coach.\u201cI hope that these groups of young women coming up, if coaching is something they want to do, perhaps by seeing me they realize that this could be a viable career,\u201d said Bowles.The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Wednesday, June 2, 2021 Page 5 Friday File- Prom Fairies: Getting ready to dream KATHRYNE OWEN McGill University hires former captain to lead the

interviewing locals and touring interesting places in the area.The videos are posted every Friday on our website and social Nine years ago, when Nancy Grey got wind of a young woman graduating from Alexander Galt Regional High School who may need some assistance creating her perfect prom look, she and some friends jumped in to help, and the Lennoxville Prom Fairies were born.It started with the proud accomplishment of raising a few hundred dollars to out?t one teenager.To say that the project has grown since then would be a huge understatement.The Prom Fairies have since raised thousands of dollars and out?tted dozens of graduates.The goal is to provide students with the prom of their dreams, that means, the dress / suit is only one part of the \u201clook\u201d.The prom fairies make sure that they have all necessary accessories, hair and makeup \u2013 even manicures \u2013 this is their night! As Nancy puts it is, \u201cThey\u2019ve worked so hard to get here, they deserve this.\u201d Join us for this week when we talk to Nancy about the project and all the sparkle it has brought to local

undeliverable Canadian addresses to The Record, 6 Mallory Street, Sherbrooke, QC J1M 2E2 Member ABC, CARD, CNA, QCNA RECORD THE Energy road map charts challenging course to oil-free future By David Suzuki Thirty-three years ago, NASA scientist James Hansen told a U.S.congressional committee the agency was 99 per cent certain a global warming trend was not natural, but caused by a buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, mainly from burning fossil fuels.\u201cGlobal warming has reached a level such that we can ascribe with a high degree of con?dence a cause and effect relationship between the greenhouse effect and observed warming,\u201d Hansen said, adding, \u201cIt is already happening now.\u201d George Woodwell, director of the Woods Hole Research Center in Massachusetts, testi?ed that wide- scale forest destruction would speed the warming, as dying forests release stored carbon dioxide.It\u2019s shocking that so many people decided the best course would be to shrug and carry on as usual in the face of dire, compelling statements from scientists who thoroughly examined the problem \u2014 not to mention evidence building since Joseph Fourier\u2019s discoveries in the 1820s to a U.S.National Academy of Sciences report in 1977 and congressional hearings on climate in the early 1980s held by Rep.Al Gore (later senator, then vice-president).There was talk but little action.Now all those warnings are reality: rapidly escalating temperatures, rising sea levels, increasing extreme weather events and more.More than 30 years after Hansen\u2019s testimony, we\u2019re in crisis because industry and governments failed to act.Can that change over the next 30?A new report from the International Energy Agency notes that a growing number of governments worldwide are pledging to zero out emissions over the coming decades.\u201cBut the pledges by governments to date \u2014 even if fully achieved \u2014 fall well short of what is required to bring global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions to net zero by 2050 and give the world an even chance of limiting the global temperature rise to 1.5 °C.\u201d One silver lining in \u201cNet Zero by 2050: A Roadmap for the Global Energy Sector\u201d is its ?nding that reducing, capturing and neutralizing emissions will bene?t human prosperity and well-being beyond simply slowing global heating \u2014 although it warns the path \u201cis narrow and requires an unprecedented transformation of how energy is produced, transported and used globally.\u201d Following recommendations from the report\u2019s \u201cmore than 400 milestones\u201d would create \u201cmillions of jobs in clean energy, including energy ef?ciency, as well as in the engineering, manufacturing and construction industries,\u201d an IEA release said.The report stresses governments must minimize hardships for people and communities affected by the energy transition, with regional aid, retraining and locating clean energy infrastructure near affected communities to maintain jobs.Measures such as providing electricity and clean cooking solutions to those who lack them would bring major health bene?ts by cutting pollution and could prevent 2.5 million premature deaths a year.But it means getting off fossil fuels \u2014 quickly.Unwillingness to start the transition when we ?rst became aware of the need means we have no time left to lose.The report ?nds fossil fuel use must fall from four-?fths of energy supply today to around one-?fth in 2050, and that demand will continue to plummet.There\u2019s no place for new coal, oil or gas development, including pipelines.Remaining fossil fuels must be \u201cused in goods where the carbon is embodied in the product such as plastics, in facilities ?tted with carbon capture, and in sectors where low-emissions technology options are scarce.\u201d The immediate goals are to rapidly phase out coal power and internal combustion engine vehicles and halt new oil and gas development.The report notes most CO2 reductions through to 2030 can be made using available technologies but that \u201cin 2050, almost half the reductions come from technologies that are currently at the demonstration or prototype phase.\u201d Electricity must \u201cplay a key role across all sectors, from transport and buildings to industry.\u201d The road map shows that by 2050, 90 per cent of global electricity generation could come from renewable sources, 70 per cent from solar photovoltaic and wind.A David Suzuki Foundation study also found getting to net zero means electrifying just about everything: cars, buses, trucks, home and building heat pumps, industrial furnaces and more.The era of coal, oil and gas is over.We\u2019ve done too little for the past 30 years.For the next 30, let\u2019s work toward a cleaner, healthier future for all.David Suzuki is a scientist, broadcaster, author and co-founder of the David Suzuki Foundation.Written with

dispatching Leafs in seven games By Lori Ewing The Canadian Press Three times the Montreal Canadiens faced elimination.Three times they brushed off the pressure and grew stronger.After trailing 3-1 in their opening- round playoff series against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal roared back with three consecutive victories, ?nally dispatching the Leafs on their home Scotiabank Arena ice with a 3-1 victory on Monday.Asked about the pressure his team faced heading into Game 7, coach Dominique Ducharme pointed out it was nothing new.\u201cWe played Game 5, Game 6 the same way, we had our backs to the wall,\u201d said Ducharme.\u201cSo for us tonight it was just the same mindset, the same way to prepare and I felt our guys were in the right place, and even more con?dent than before because we just won those last two games.\u201cSo (Monday) was not that different of the day.I thought our guys handled it really well and I think it showed on the ice.\u201d Brendan Gallagher, Corey Perry and Tyler Toffoli, into an empty net, scored for the Canadiens, while Carey Price made 30 saves.If there was a turning point to the series comeback, Gallagher thought it came in Game 5 in Toronto, which the Habs won in overtime.\u201cThis was only my second Game 7 ever,\u201d said Gallagher, who scored his ?rst goal since April 1 after missing six weeks with a broken thumb.\u201cI remember the other one (in 2014), we actually lost Game 5 in Boston but I remember sitting around the room afterwards with the guys and we were telling each other we\u2019re winning the series, we felt like we had them.\u201d Their Game 5 win in Toronto sent the series back to Montreal, where they won in OT again, in front of 2,500 fans, the ?rst crowd at an NHL game in Canada since the start of the pandemic.\u201cPlaying in front of the crowd, I think you can see a little bit of extra jump in us,\u201d Gallagher said.\u201cAnd you know coming here tonight, it\u2019s almost easier being on the road for these games.\u201cI think every game we just had to ?nd a way to make one more play than they did.\u201d The series win was the Habs\u2019 ?rst since they dispatched the Ottawa Senators in six games in 2015 before being eliminated by the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2 in the second round.They\u2019ll take on the rested Winnipeg Jets, who swept Connor McDavid\u2019s Edmonton Oilers in the Canadian- based North Division\u2019s other ?rst- round series.That series was over in just six days, ending a week ago with a triple-overtime victory.The Canadiens were headed straight to the airport to ?y to Winnipeg on Monday to prepare for Wednesday\u2019s second-round opener.While their comeback victory was a dagger to their Original 6 rival - and the collective hearts of Toronto hockey fans - they had little time to celebrate.\u201cWe won a series, we\u2019re happy about that,\u201d Ducharme said.\u201cBut we want more so after tonight you need to turn the page.We\u2019ll take the all the goods that made us have success and bring that to the next one.So, it\u2019s not a time to celebrate for a few days.We enjoy it tonight, and we\u2019ll be preparing tomorrow.\u201d Canadiens centre Phillip Danault said there was some pride in holding Leafs sniper Auston Matthews to just one goal in the series.\u201cIt\u2019s big for me personally.I think it\u2019s huge for the whole team,\u201d said Danault, who arrived for the post-game interview with a large pizza box, and shovelled in bites between answers.\u201cWe know we can play against big players.Everyone did his job.That\u2019s how we won.\u201cAnd (Carey) Price was solid every single night, giving us a chance.We\u2019ve got a lot of pride in that dressing room, and we de?nitely want to get more.\u201d The series victory was big for Price, who struggled earlier this season.\u201cI thought we had a pretty good chance all series,\u201d Price said.\u201cObviously, we win that game (5), we started gathering momentum, and we just kept at it and tried to keep that momentum going.\u201d Price had kind words for the defencemen in front of him.\u201cWarriors, those guys.They were poised with the puck and they did an excellent job,\u201d he said.Game 2 of the second round is Friday in Winnipeg, then the series heads to Montreal for Game 3 on Sunday.Follow The Sherbrooke Record on Facebook and Twitter! sherbrookerecord

sunburn - but honestly, it just happens sometimes.What is the best thing to do to treat it?Our grandmother always gets ice and rubs it on the burn, but that doesn\u2019t seem to make it go away.Dear Reader: It\u2019s true that if you let your guard down when you spend time outdoors, it\u2019s all too easy to accidentally get a sunburn.We tend to associate sunburn with the warmer and sunnier days of summer; however, it can happen at any time of year, even on what seems like a cloudy day.Any time the sun is out, it\u2019s affecting your skin.It\u2019s important to understand that sunburn is actually a skin injury.It occurs when melanin, a natural pigment that protects against the ultraviolet light in the sun\u2019s rays, becomes overwhelmed due to overexposure.The resulting damage to the skin leads to in?ammation as the body\u2019s healing mechanisms race to the rescue.Your grandmother\u2019s use of ice cubes may feel soothing, but they won\u2019t cure a sunburn.Unfortunately, nothing will: Once you\u2019re burned, the damage is done.All you can do is take steps to ease the immediate discomfort, and prevent further and subsequent burning in the future.The sun\u2019s rays are strongest between 10 a.m.and 2 p.m., but the hours before and after also require vigilance from the two types of ultraviolet radiation associated with skin cancers, known as UVB and UVA.Sunlight can harm skin even through a window: UVB rays don\u2019t pass through glass, so you won\u2019t burn, but UVA rays can still reach you and can damage the deeper layers of your skin.When you realize you\u2019ve gotten a sunburn, it\u2019s important get out of the sun immediately.If possible, head indoors.Sunburned skin is hot to the touch, so a cool (but not cold) bath or shower can bring relief.Be sure to treat sunburned areas gently.Instead of rubbing the skin, blot and pat it with a soft towel.Apply lotion while skin is still damp, which will help create a physical barrier to preserve moisture.Consider using aloe vera.It contains aloin, a compound that relieves in?ammation.Aloe is available as a gel, and is included in many types of moisturizers and lotions.Over-the- counter cortisol creams can also ease pain and discomfort.Nonsteroidal anti-in?ammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen and aspirin can help with pain and in?ammation.If your skin blisters, that indicates a second-degree burn.Do not interfere with them.Let blisters subside and heal naturally.Popping blisters or removing peeling skin can lead to infection.Be sure to moisturize often, as the sunburn has damaged the skin and left it dry and fragile, and drink plenty of water.Your body is sending extra ?uids to the sunburned areas, and you\u2019ll help the healing process by staying hydrated.Sun damage is cumulative, which means the risks you take last a lifetime.So please, wear sunscreen and cover up with long sleeves, sunglasses and head gear.Don\u2019t forget about the tops of your ears, the back of your neck and the tops of your feet.Keep an eye on the UV index in your area, and dress and behave accordingly.Eve Glazier, M.D., MBA, is an internist and associate professor of

newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Wednesday, June 2, 2021 Page 9 Trying to Mend a Mother-Daughter Relationship Dear Annie WEDNESDAY.JUNE 2, 2021 Dear Annie: My relationship with my parents has been strained since their divorce 20 years ago.I speak to my father rarely but communicate regularly with my mother.My mom recently found a boyfriend.I have a new baby and a son with disabilities.My mother offered to watch my children at our house, and with remote learning, I need all the help I can get.She is retired and told me \u201cit was her turn\u201d to spend time with the grandkids.My issue, now that she is coming to my home daily, is that she arrives and complains about something not being to her liking in my home.I have been quiet now for 10 months, but today, I was overwhelmed and told her, crying, how I was trying my best.Taking care of a baby and trying to work a full-time job while my husband works the early morning shift and 15-hour workdays at least three times a week have left me exhausted.She was furious I didn\u2019t leave room for her belongings in my kitchen.This past winter, she said my lazy husband better get off his \u201crear\u201d and shovel.I run a tight ship, but sometimes, things get messy.My husband works late.Tonight, when I came home from work, my mother stormed out and told me she had called my mother-in-law to cover and would see me next week.I was a little blown away; after we had argued earlier, she texted me over eight times at work.I told her I couldn\u2019t respond because of my boss.She told me that I would regret telling her she was clueless about my situation and that it only takes minutes to pick up her stuff and leave.I need an outsider\u2019s opinion.We had an extremely volatile relationship when I was younger.I am very sensitive about my mother, and I felt like I was giving her a second chance.She spent Mother\u2019s Day with her boyfriend.Last year, she spent it with her mother, my grandmother, who has dementia and lives in the nursing home.A window visit, mind you.I\u2019ve always felt abandoned by both parents in a sense and have trouble in my adult relationships trusting people.I feel like bringing in my mother- in-law was also disrespectful and drama-?lled.Any advice?- Parent Problems Dear Parent Problems: Judging from the actions your mother took toward you, you are missing more than just a mother\u2019s helper.You are missing a nurturing, unconditionally loving, understanding and patient mother.It is understandable that you have felt abandoned and have trouble trusting people.My advice to you is to recognize that your mother loved you the best she knew how to love you, and sadly for her and you, that love is very limited.The good news is that you can love differently.Find a good therapist, and talk with him or her about your feelings.Being aware of your shortcomings is more than half the battle toward healing from toxic parents.Please give yourself a break.You sound like you are doing a wonderful job parenting.Dear Annie: I work in health and wellness for the largest retailer in the world.I love my job, but there are so many things I don\u2019t understand.Management is always on us about making money (which I understand), but no matter what we do, it is never enough.We reside in a depressed area and really do quite well for where we live.With all the pressure management puts on us about sales and eliminating waste, our district manager demands that we work such wasteful hours.We are at the of?ce until 8 in the evening even though no one comes in that late.I keep looking for something to do.We work from 12 to 5 on Sundays, and usually there are no customers - just people walking by asking, \u201cWhy are you working on a Sunday?\u201d On Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day and other holidays, we work from 9 to 6.It is not unusual to have customers who are on vacation and want trial contact lenses because theirs are ripped or lost.When we can\u2019t give them what they want (we need a doctor\u2019s permission to give out contacts), they become irate.Sometimes it gets intense.This is pretty much how the day goes - dealing with irate customers and getting no sales.What can we do to let members of management know there are better ways to treat their employees and still save money?They simply will not listen.It\u2019s typical top-down management.Things are good for those who are on top but frustrating for those who aren\u2019t so far up the ladder.- Love My Job but Just Don\u2019t Understand Dear LMJBJDU: Many companies today have wised up to the value of employee feedback and started conducting periodic reviews.If your employer does, take the opportunity to share your insights.Focus on what the company stands to gain by cutting back during low-traf?c hours.Your case will be more convincing if you can offer some concrete examples - so the next time you\u2019re working one of these shifts, take notes on sales, staf?ng, etc.Because it\u2019s such a huge retailer with stores nationwide, there may be blanket policies that your managers have to follow even if they don\u2019t make much sense at your location.But it\u2019s worth at least proffering your two cents.If management brushes you off and things continue not to change, it might be time to channel your frustration into ?lling out some job applications - preferably with smaller companies, where you might be able to play a bigger role.Dear Annie: While shopping at our local grocery, I overheard an elderly woman complaining that the new digital coupons limit her from getting the reduced price.She does not have a smartphone with which to pull up the coupons, nor does she know how to use a computer.She expressed that this is unfair to older people (many of whom really need the reduced prices) who would like to be able to participate in this program.I wonder whether any of the companies that have gone digital have considered this problem.- Digital Age Discrimination Dear Digital Age Discrimination: A smartphone isn\u2019t always necessary, as many companies allow customers to download and print coupons from their websites - but that still presents a frustrating obstacle for seniors who aren\u2019t familiar with using a computer or don\u2019t have access to one.Rather than give up, I would encourage anyone in this boat to call the

and still are - versatile fruits that can be used in many different recipes.Apple pie is a popular dish made from apples, but a close cousin to pie - turnovers - can be just as delicious.Turnovers are handheld desserts made with many of the same ingredients as pie.They are small pastries made by covering one half of a piece of dough with ?lling, folding the other half over on top, and then sealing the edges.Apple turnovers can be a sweet treat for July 4th barbecues or other events this summer.Enjoy this recipe, courtesy of PillsburyTM.Easy Apple Turnovers Serves 4 11/2 cups thinly sliced, peeled apples (roughly 11/2 medium-sized apple) 1/4 cup packed brown sugar 2 tablespoons water 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 tablespoon all-purpose ?our 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon butter or margarine 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1 box Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crusts 1 egg 1.In a 2-quart saucepan, mix apples, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of the water and lemon juice.Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until bubbly.Reduce heat to low; cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender.2.In a small bowl, mix ?our, granulated sugar and salt.Gradually stir into apple mixture, cooking and stirring until mixture thickens.Remove from heat; stir in butter and vanilla.Cool 15 minutes.3.Meanwhile, heat oven to 350 F.Let pie crust pouch stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.4.Remove pie crust from pouch; unroll crust on ungreased cookie sheet.Spoon cooled fruit mixture evenly onto half of crust to within 1/2 inch of edge.5.In a small bowl, beat egg and 1 tablespoon water; brush over edge of crust.Fold untopped half of crust over apple mixture; ?rmly press edge to seal.Flute edge; cut small slits in several places in top crust.Brush top with remaining egg mixture.6.Bake 25 to 35 minutes or until crust is golden brown.Serve warm or cool.Drizzle with icing, if desired.Expert tips: Tart apples, such as Granny Smith or McIntosh, make ?avorful pies.Braeburn or Gala apples provide good texture and a slightly sweeter ?avor Metro Creative Beach Camping Coastal Cooling Fan Hammock Hazy Hot Lazy Outdoors Recreation Seaside Shady Summer Sunshine Suntan Sweating Swimming Swimsuit Temperature Towel Travel Umbrella Vacation Do Just One Thing By Danny Seo It\u2019s a good idea to invest in electric fans before the outdoor temperatures get too hot.While air conditioning can keep your home cool, it guzzles a lot of electricity.When you use fans, you reduce your electricity usage by a whopping 90%.You can also alternate air conditioning and fan usage as a hybrid approach for keeping cool.And ?nally, try this old-fashioned trick that really works: Fill a large bowl with ice and let the fan blow across it.It\u2019ll move cooler air into the room.EMAIL YOUR CLASSIFIED TO US!
