It is the August long weekend and we are off to cottage country to see if there are any peach pies to be purchased, dangle our toes from the dock and luxuriate in the simmering heat of our fading Canadian summer. We will be back with the newsletter on Wednesday, August 8 and count on us to update the website should there be any breaking news.

From the FYI team to our readers, take care, enjoy the weekend and see you on hump day next week.

Cheers
