Russell MLA Len Derkach blasts the province for the way school divisions are being merged. He cites unclear direction, unanswered questions, and rushed timelines affecting ward redraws, joint boards, transportation, contracts, and funding. Parents and taxpayers remain uninformed as divisions await clarity on staffing, budgets, and transitional costs.

Russell marks Remembrance Day with the cenotaph ceremony led by Legion President Albert Beelaert as official recognition of war dead is cancelled for the first time. A memorial note shaped like a missile urged world peace, while nationwide poppy donations rise and local Russell pledges may exceed last year by about two hundred dollars.
