Tracy Kwissa for Carleton Place

Workplaces and schools are driving transmission of this virus. Were the whole country to lock themselves in their closets, except for those students and essen...tial workers, the crisis would continue. That is some pretty sobering information, going forward, we must change how we do things, the next reopening must be a science backed strategy. No more dangerous winging it. See more

I have been buying tickets weekly. An investment in our community and maybe I’ll get lucky

A local woman who has become an entrepreneur, putting her talents to creative use!

Hi friends! As most of you may know, my name is Moe and I’m the owner of Lakeside Shawarma on Bridge street! As of tomorrow, we will have been in business for 6... years, although I’ve been in the restaurant business for a little over 25 years. I drive 65km to and from work each workday, but the friendships and connections I’ve made with my customers make it all worth while. 6 years ago I took a risk by opening a restaurant in a town I wasn’t familiar with, surrounded by people I didn’t know.....but it ended up being the best decision I’ve ever made. You’ve all been so supportive through good and bad times, and have really stood by us. We love and appreciate all of you....which is why we decided not to do a giveaway. We want everyone to get something tomorrow, so all of you will be getting 10% off your orders all day Saturday! Thank you all so much for the best 6 years, looking forward to many more with you!
