Dave Sawler, left, from the Undercurrent Youth Centre speaks with MLA Geoff MacLellan about the new provincial school lunch program outside the Sweet Side of the Moon Bakery in Glace Bay on Thursday. The Sweet Side of the Moon is one of the four restaurants involved in the program, which helps feed students in the Cape Breton Regional Municipality while schools are closed due to health protection orders in place to stop the spread of the new coronavirus that causes COVID-19. Undercurrent, which had already been delivering lunches to some students in Glace Bay and New Waterford, is one of the community partners of the project which is being piloted in Cape Breton.

CBRM residents never know what they're going to find when they take cruise around the municipality during the annual heavy garbage pickup. But there will no curbside treasures discovered this month as the popular collection service is on hold until it is determined that it is safe to resume once public heath regulations surrounding COVID-19 are relaxed. However, CBRM Mayor Cecil Clarke says he's confident that heavy garbage will happen sometime in the future. SALTWIRE NETWORLK file photo

(From left) Laura MacDonald and her brother Justin wave to Reserve Mines resident Erville Stubbard as they drop off a package of home-sewn cotton face masks on April 10. Since late March, their family has been making and delivering the masks for free to people around the Cape Breton Regional Municipality like residential continuing care assistants, staff at long-term care facilities and people who are most vulnerable to COVID-19 and complications from the infectious disease. To date, they’ve given away 920 masks and hope to make another 900 more once they receive a shipment of 300 metres of elastic for the ear straps. Thanks to donations of materials and money from community members plus help from volunteer sewers Jacqueline MacNeil and her daughter Addison, the MacDonald family thinks they can hit that target, and distribute 1,820 reusable cotton face masks. “We’re just trying to help anybody we can, who is vulnerable or could be vulnerable,” Justin said. “We’re taking care of as many people as we can while we can still get our hands on the materials.” NICOLE SULLIVAN/CAPE BRETON POST
