Burleigh Falls Dam is part of the Trent-Severn Waterway, now a national historic site operated by Parks Canada. The dam was originally constructed in 1912. (Dean Wood)
Members from an Ontario First Nation continue to block access to a dam reconstruction site because they say they were not properly consulted by Parks Canada.
Nodin Webb, leader and spokesperson for Kawartha Nishnawbe First Nation, said his community isn t necessarily opposed to the work on the Burleigh Falls Dam, but Parks Canada should ve involved them in the decision-making process.
Two barricades were erected last week that prevent access to the work site in Burleigh Falls, Ont., 130 kilometres northeast of Toronto.
Christopher Reidâs wonderful, calming new collection The Late Sun is a patchwork of sunlight and shade. The opening poem, Photography, set in a sunny restaurant before lunch, ends contemplatively:
What I can see and am smitten
by is a cool, square depth
of shadow and nuance,
fixed for an instant, an age.
Reid is a parental poet, bringing responsible, reserved yet often playful attention to what he sees. Running at the Sea describes a small boy and girl chasing waves. Charming and accurate, it ends with verbs that could belong to the children themselves. The sea alternates between âboom and shushâ â suggestive of a noisy game, a lullaby. In a collection of exceptional observations, Reid misses nothing: a tree surgeonâs acrobatics in an ordinary London plane tree, a riderless horse taking a short canter âon the sly,/ like a loose thoughtâ, mountains seen from a plane, their overflowing shapes brilliantly described as âslovenlyâ.

BOISE, Idaho A 30-year-old Boise man will now spend the next year in federal prison after he was sentenced for making false bomb threats over the phone last year.
According to U.S. Attorney Bart Davis of the District of Idaho, Kristopher Wrede was sentenced to one year in federal prison and three years of supervised release afterward.
Wrede was arrested in Bonneville County on a warrant for making threats of terrorism on Feb. 13, 2020, according to Davis.
The next day, Wrede called the Idaho Suicide Prevention Hotline and told a staffer that there were several bombs at the federal courthouse at 550 W. Fort Street, which is the James A. McClure Federal Building and United States Courthouse Boise.
