The Newmarket soccer club has received a grant of just over 46
thousand dollars from the province's trillium foundation..
Those funds will go towards upgrading its field and bathrooms as
well as other repairs.
The club was presented the grant during the club's 65th anniversary
celebration on Sunday at the Ray Twinney rec complex.
The upgrades will allow the Newmarket soccer club to continue to be
the number 1 club in Newmarket offering programming to over 5
thousand members all year round.
The Ontario government is investing 3 million dollars across the
province in order to support victims and survivors of crime and
tragedy and South Simcoe will receive 89 thousand of the 3 million.
The funds will go towards improving victim support services and
helping to enhance police services in the region.
The 89 thousand will be divided up into 3 different cheques with
17 thousand going to Crime stoppers simcoe-duffrin-muskoka.
27 thousand going to victim services of south simcoe and the
remainder going to the south simcoe police service themselves.
Do not expect to hop on board an Air Canada flight today.
Air Canada has suspended their plans to resume normal operations
until at least 4 PM today, and refuses to return to the bargaining table
until the flight attendants return to work.
Air Canada COO Mark Nasar said that Air Canada is ready to
negotiate a new deal that will change the industry, but says Air Canada
can not do that while their flights are grounded.
The biggest issue holding up a deal continues to be the flight
attendants accusations of being forced to work several unpaid hours.
Canada Jobs minister Patt Hadju is taking the allegations seriously
and has already ordered a probe into the matter.
