Botulism at Whitewater Lake raises bird death concerns
A survey by District Supervisor Larry Ross notes another botulism outbreak at Whitewater Lake. About 750 birds were recovered this spring and likely half died this year, with the rest dying last fall. Natural Resources Environment Canada and Ducks Unlimited are on site to monitor and remove carcasses to stop spread.

Let's Talk Taxes Party membership and campaign refunds
Victor Vrs nik argues that Canadian election funding rebates subsidize campaigns. He notes 15 percent or more vote entitles candidates to half their expenses funded by taxpayers while parties get 22.5 percent if certain thresholds are met. He cites 1993 outcomes and calls for greater transparency and curbs, urging politicians to refuse public funding and lead by example.
