The Lucknow Sentinel, 2014-01-08, Page 22 Lucknow Sentinel • Wednesday, January 8, 2014 Huron Health Unit to Lucknow's resolutions for a new year investigate cancer cluster claim CONTINUED FROM > PAGE 1 Clark noted that, according to the Canadian Cancer Society, half of Canadians face a cancer battle at one point in their life. Factoring in that statistic, "over time you would see more and more of your neighbours and acquaintances getting cancer," she said. The information gathering stage of the investigation will take two months and results will be released in March. Clark will discuss her findings with Cancer Care Ontario to determine a next step from there, if needed. This is the first cancer cluster investigation by the Huron health unit. Other health units, including Perth County, have undergone similar investigations she said. Generally results indicate there isn't a cluster, she said, but "it is important to look, we don't want to miss anything." Contact Clark at 482-3416 or e-mail: eclark@huron- county.ca before Feb. 28.

However, there are many who do and a neighbour of mine told me she always tries to make some sort of resolution that will help her improve herself in some way.

Congratulations to Lucknow Legion Branch 309 on their lovely New Years Day Levee on Jan. 1. A good crowd came out despite the cold weather to enjoy the Levee and visit with old friends and new. I did discover something new (to me) about Claudia Baskerville at the Levee. She and her sister who was visiting from Manitoba are Ukrainian, like me, so we had a lovely conversation about our families, where they lived and most importantly about Ukrainian Christmas and Ukrainian food. By the way, Ukrain- ian Christmas Eve is celebrated on Jan. 6 and must be completely meatless and have at least 12 dishes. Hopefully by the time this paper comes out, the cold snap will have bro- ken and that we don't end up with the cold weather they have been having in Manitoba. Apparently, over 16,000 peo- ple called for help to get vehicles started in Manitoba between Christmas and New Years. Oh well, we do live in Can- ada, and it is winter.

Two-year term for next Huron County warden Paul Cluff QMI Agency A tie vote went to the status quo - Huron County council will keep the term of office of warden at two years. Council met Dec. 30 to again discuss the issue. They voted 9-7 at committee of the whole earlier in the month to essen- tially nullify their November, 2012 vote to extend the term to two years, from one. That vote didn't carry through and the 8-8 tie means the warden term will indeed move to two years, CAO Brenda Orchard said after the meeting. A majority vote was needed to move it back to one year. "Both sides spoke passionately on the issue," she said. The two-year post will take effect when current Warden Joe Steffier's term ends next December.
