"We're hoping to keep it current and we're hoping if people find they're missed, they'll let us know. That's the only way to make it better," she says. While Seaforth has had a website for several years, the site was recently updated at www.townofseaforth.ca by Agar and Design Heaven in Brussels. "We wanted a site that was accessible in its own right, not just a link to the Huron East site," she says. The brand new Seaforth website, funded by the Seaforth Community Development Trust, gives "more of a complete picture" of Seaforth with pages that "look like it was ripped from a history book."

For Mary Ryan, of St. Columban, her son telling her he was being sent to Afghanistan was not the best news in the world. "Let's just say I wasn't thrilled," said Ryan. Corporal Joseph Ryan is currently serving a six- month tour of duty with other members the Canadian Armed Forces in a support Two air conditioners stolen from local business Huron OPP Two new air conditioners valued at $700 were stolen from an unlocked barn behind Silts Hardware in Seaforth on June 15 between noon and 4 p.m. They were International Comfort Pro Model Climette three -speed air conditioners with 8000 BTUs and still in the box.

This is because some M.P.s have opted to be Ottawa's representative in the riding instead of being theriding's representative in Ottawa. The Paul Martin Team is committed to creating a political system that will enhance public participation and confidence in the government. Expressing the views of my constituents has always been my first pricirity. I have never been afraid to stand up and speak on behalf of my constituents, regardless of the issue. I have sought the opinions of the residents of Huron-Eintce, listened carefully, and most importantly, acted according to their wishes. 1 would be honoured to again have your support How I Have Voted YES to maintain the traditional definition of marriage NO to Bill C-250 YES to taking money out of the firearms registry and giving it to Airmen VES to the Dairy Tettms Act VES to the national sex -offender registry capacity. Ryan realizes that her son has to exercise what he has been taught. "When you're in the armed forces you're constantly practising these things. To them it's really important to really go some where and really practise those skills," said Ryan. For 19 years, Joseph, 37, of CFB Winnipeg, has been a mechanic in the Canadian Armed Forces. Since arriving in Afghanistan in early June, Joseph has had to deal with temperatures as hot as 45 C. "They told him there that's only the beginning. It'll be far worse than that when it's over," said Ryan. The mission also comes with some conditions for his family. They cannot send letter with a return address for security reasons. "Maybe (it's) because of where he's going. It's a more dangerous place," said Ryan. Based out of CFB Winnipeg, Joseph and his wife Paula have three children, Brent, 8, and four- year-old twin girls, Megan and Erin. Previous missions have seen Joseph with the United Nations in the Golan Heights, near Israel and Palestine. He has been stationed at an army base in Lahr, Germany for a few years. He has also flown on supply missions to Croatia and Bosnia. As for this mission his family is keeping him in their thoughts and hope to see him by December. "We're praying for him and we hope he's safe. We look forward to seeing him for Christmas," said Ryan. Jason Middleton photo Life in the fast lane?
