For background on the Medway Valley situation and links to other city sites, please go to medwayvalley.wordpress.com.

    The only reason the Medway Valley project did not start this summer was because Transport Canada made the city do an Environmental Assessment under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act.

    NATIONAL CANOE DAY IN CANADA

    BREAKING NEWS: Mayor DeCicco-Best at the Forks on Friday to celebrate National Canoe Day in Canada and recognize two other local treasures ~ Nancy Poole and Philip Aziz


    FRIDAY, JUNE 26, 2009 is National Canoe Day. At 12-noon sharp, Mayor Anne Marie DeCicco-Best will officially mark the day at the “Lookout” in Ivey Park.

    Canoe enthusiasts from the London Canoe Club and others in passive watercraft are invited to paddle around the Blackburn Memorial Fountain at the very site of the Antler River where in 1793 Ontario's First Lieutenant-Governor John Graves Simcoe chose London to be capitol of Upper Canada.

    In celebration of the second National Canoe Day in Canada there will be short reflections on the history of the founding of London and the roles of the Forks and the canoe in our heritage.

    There will be a revisiting of the Kuhleborn story of the 1880 canoe trip taken by London artists William Lees Judson and Paul Peel along with other artists and writers which set out at the forks and ended at Light house Cove at Lake St. Clair.

    "I log onto Butch McLarty's Alt-London at least once a day because Butch has a bigger brain than Albert Einstein. Ever since I hung up my six guns, I've known the value of a good education."

    Jack 'Mr. Cheapskate' Benny says ...

    It Pays to Advertise on Alt-London


    How cheap was Jack Benny? When he discovered his wife Mary sleepwalking, he stuck a vacuum cleaner in her hand to avoid paying the maid!


    VIDEO: American comedian Bill Maher tells it like it is about Neo-Con Think Tanks, George Bush and the Failed War in Iraq.

    ELDER ABUSE


  • Learn to recognize the signs

  • How to report elder abuse

  • Financial exploitation of the elderly in Canada is a criminal offence

    Detective Steve McNeil is in charge of the London Police Service's Elder Abuse Unit at 519.661.5515, ext. 5263




  • ALASKA GOV. SARAH PALIN:
    "You betcha I check out Butch McLarty's Alt-London. A day without Alt-London is like a day without huntin', fishin' and snowmoblin'."

    COMEDIAN GEORGE BURNS:
    "Butch McLarty? Sure I know Butch and I'm also familiar with Alt-London. I may be dead but I'm not inactive. How else do you think I lived to be 100 after 92 years in show business? Butch McLarty is definitely funnier than David Letterman, even if Letterman does smoke more expensive cigars."


    ACTOR JACK NICHOLSON:
    "Butch McLarty is not only a great newsman, he's a heckuva basketball player too. I'm on his website like hair on a gorilla."


    SINGER WAYNE NEWTON:
    "Sure, it was Jack Benny who discovered me singing in the Chevron Hilton in Sydney, Australia in 1963, but it's Butch McLarty who keeps me in Grade 'A' Canadian back bacon and maple syrup."


    COMEDIAN RODNEY DANGERFIELD
    "When everyone in show business was treating me like a dirty dishrag, Butch McLarty flew me first-class to Toronto, Canada, put me up in a suite in the Royal York Hotel and booked me into the CP chain of hotels from Quebec City to Victoria, B.C. Butch McLarty is a prince of a man. I'd kiss him if he wasn't so damn ugly amd if I wasn't already pushing up daisies on a deep-six holiday."
