The Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Levy, is providing regular updates to Council on the potential flu pandemic and the actions that are being taken to ensure that Ottawa is prepared. At the time of writing there are two confirmed cases in Ottawa, both of whom are persons who recently returned from Mexico. Both cases are relatively mild and the patients are recovering. Follow good hygiene to minimize your risk for example, wash your hands with soap and water for at least 15 seconds before eating, after coughing or sneezing and after using the washroom. If you have flu symptoms stay home and if your symptoms are severe you should contact your doctor. Check the Citys website for more information and frequent updates at

YOUNG AT ART
The exhibit of the art entered by young members of our community in the Young at Art competition is open until May 24 at the Kanata Art Gallery in the Mlacak Centre. The talent demonstrated by these young people is awesome and I
always have a hard time choosing one piece of art for my personal award. Drop by when youre visiting the library and see this talent for yourself. Awards will be presented at a reception in the Mlacak Centre on Sunday, May 24 at 7:30 pm.
