Haldimand Council has voted down a referendum on the divisive Nanticoke MZO (Minister's Zoning Order) that was suggested by Mayor Shelley Ann Bentley and would have been included as a question on the 2026 municipal election ballot if approved. The MZO remains in the hands of the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing with no known timeline for when a decision will be made.

**ATTENTION CALEDONIA RESIDENTS**

The City of Hamilton, who supplies potable water to Caledonia, Cayuga and York, has advised Haldimand staff of a water main leak impacting a portion of their water distribution system on Hwy 6.

Repair work beginning at 1 a.m. on Saturday, November 29 will result in a significant drop in water pressure for urban residential users until repairs are complete in the early morning hours.

Residents are advised to store a supply of water for non-potable use and stay tuned to Haldimand’s website or social media for notification that work is complete, or if the disruption will be prolonged with a possibility of extending to Cayuga and York.

Once restored, residents are encouraged to:

* Confirm all taps are in the off position before water is turned back on
* Remove aerators (screens) from taps
* Run the laundry tub tap (or the tap closest to your water meter) for 10 minutes
* Run each cold-water tap for 5 minutes (observing air or dirty water for a few minutes is normal)
* Replace aerators on taps

Should the water service disruption be prolonged, Haldimand is prepared to activate its Emergency Operations Centre and implement contingency plans.

Cayuga has rallied around 4-year-old Cedar Currie after his parents discovered what they thought was a stubborn cold was actually non-Hodgkin Burkitt lymphoma.

Cedar is now entering his third phase of chemotherapy after receiving his full diagnosis on November 11.

To help his family through the difficult months ahead, a fundraiser has been set up. To donate, visit gofundme.com/f/cedar-stands-tall

Dunnville resident Gerry Krumhout was just two years old when his family sheltered 4 year old Jenny and her six year old sister Hanna from persecution at the hands of the invading N**i forces occupying the Netherlands at the time.

The pair, separated from their parents who were betrayed and murdered at a concentration camp in Poland, would reunite with the Krumhout family over 60 years later after tracking them down.

It was then that Gerry’s father, Cornelius, was able to hand the two girls something he had held on to for six decades - sealed letters written to them by their father.

For Gerry’s story, and more Remembrance Day coverage, look to this week’s copy of The Press for our special pullout, or visit our website (haldimandpress . com - no spaces), where we have unlocked the digital version for free in honour of our Veterans and all who served and continue to serve our country.
