The last ceremony, Sunshine Cemetery's unveiling, is scheduled for 1 p.m. The cemetery signs started as a request from ratepayers asking for municipally -maintained cemeteries to be identified as such with signage. After deciding on a sign design, the signs were ordered and are now ready for installation and unveiling. For more information, contact the Morris-Turnberry municipal office at 519-887-6137.

Kincardine's Jan Johnstone will represent the NDP in the upcoming election. This comes after Johnstone represented the NDP in the 1997 federal election and in the 2014 provincial election. Johnstone is the vice -chair of the Bluewater District School Board, representing the Municipality of Kincardine and the Township of Huron -Kinloss. She has also been elected as a director to the Ontario Public School Boards Association where she chairs the Program Work Committee. Nicholas Wendler is the riding's candidate for the Green Party. Wendler has previously run for the Green Party in Kitchener Centre after working on data entry for the party during the Kitchener -Waterloo byelection. Wendler is a Goderich native who moved out of the community to study at the University of Waterloo, followed by Wilfrid Laurier University. In 2015, when running for the Green Party in Kitchener, Wendler told The Waterloo Region Record that he was born with a physical disability, which has given him a "unique view of life". He also told the newspaper that while he enjoyed the conveniences of city living while in Kitchener, he enjoyed the small-town atmosphere of where he grew up, which he called a "tight -knit community". Huenemoerder is a business owner in Seaforth who said she felt the Alliance Party's values fit her own and wanted to represent the party in the coming election. Stephens has been a candidate before, running as an independent in 2007, but says the Libertarian Party is full of candidates who "get it" and who are sick of the big three parties. The Citizen will be covering the election on its website and Facebook and Twitter pages on the night of June 7. Be sure to follow for all the results on election night.

It was the initial response of one of Laura Lucio's partners in her original 1997 Blyth project. This was in regard to the 'Plantagenet's' treatment by the municipality of North Huron's administration, it's elected officials, and some of it's appointed agents and advisors and also it's unelected officials, agents and advisors who have illegitimately usurped and controlled legitimate, elected power. This absurd situation is not confined to North Huron. The world is awakening to the fact that, as with related, global, drug and economic problems, this not -accidental legitimacy problem is a pandemic ushered by politicians in the thrall of right -wing - concocted, neoliberal, political, social and economic ideology. In the closing statement of their initial response Laura's 'Plantagenet' partners committed to submitting "a more significant response at a later, more convenient date." The inconvenience they experienced at that time was the result of ongoing, puerile interference in their communications, including an absurd, recorded and archived claim by a third party that they could better ascertain what those 'Plantagenet' partners wanted to say, and acted on that claim by presuming the arbitrary right to dictate the style, and wording of their communications - thereby distorting and restricting them. Things have changed. Laura's partners are now ready to fulfill their commitment to give a more significant response, and to honour Laura's wish that Blyth be accorded the courtesy of advance notice of her plans before a wider release. Neoliberal challenges to net neutrality, emerging new media and evolving alternatives to an authoritarian YouTube, have encouraged, both, the shelving of under - construction websites, and the adoption of a more ambitious strategy that merges aspects of Laura's original projects, from 1997, and the publishing of the 'Plantagenet' partners' previously announced narrative work with contributions from globally renowned artists. Publication details of the first volume of that narrative and it's related production will be announced on the new media platforms. In their narrative, the 'Plantagenet' partner's genealogy is revealed against a backdrop tracing the invention and evolution of capitalism while also relating the complex story of how the 'Plantagenets' came to be Laura's partners in her family's Blyth projects after she attended an art techniques exchange in the Cotswold District of Gloucestershire. Richard III, the last Plantagenet king, was the Duke of Gloucester. The narrative also incorporates an historical tale with cosmological dimensions that reaches back more than 900 years to tell of the Plantagenet's connection to Blyth. This is theloth mention in seven years of the 'Plantagenet' partners' presence in the municipality of North Huron, and as has been said many times, they are descended from a line of Plantagenet kings and scores of other Royal and Imperial Houses and thousands of comital, ducal and other aristocratic and patrician houses. They have many lines of descent that go back nearly 2,000 years and are descended multiple times from WilliamThe Conqueror; an almost unbelievable number of times from Charlemagne; Alfred the Great; William the Fowler; The Kings of France etc. Several of their uncles were Popes and many of their ancestors were bankers to Kings and Emperors and all manner of grand and petty aristocrats, but few peasants. Of special interest to Laura and her family is the 'Plantagenet's' descent from three sources that produced noted authors of world renowned, scholarly works on birds, especially birds of prey. These ancestors are Holy Roman Emperor Konstantin Roger Friedrich von Staufen; Don JUAN Manuel "el Scritor" Senor de Villena and Fernando Perez de Ayala, Senor del Valle de Ayala whose son is the noted author PEDRO Lopez de Ayala "el Cronista" - an uncle of Laura's 'Plantagenet' partners. Many other ancestors of their's, such as Henry the Fowler, are noted for their passionate pursuit of falconry. This shared interest in things avian also informs the 'Plantagenet' partner's narrative in a significant way as does a dichotomy in Laura's own genealogy that intrigued and inspired them. Laura and her brother Jason are cousins to more Canadian Prime Ministers than anyone else that Laura's partners are aware of, here, or in Europe. Laura and Jason's European ancestors have been in Canada for four hundred years. According to family records corroborated in the work of John Ralston Saul, the descendents of some of those europeans ancestors are also descendents of first nations people - present in Canada for 15,000 years - an amazing 550 generations or more. Their ongoing treatment at the hands of disingenuous institutions, including government, remains, wholly, shameful. Like Laura's problem in Blyth, it's about dishonest power, covetous greed, and property. The next, and last, paid communication, as a courtesy to the community before general press releases begin, will be the more significant response promised by Laura's Plantagenet partners. It is intended that Blyth and the wider community will be the first to be introduced to We EndureTM © 2017 Usgirls Edging All rights reserved We EndureTM
