Network Classifieds: The sap from maple trees runs at Kortright

The return of the spring-like weather means people are attracted to the Kortright Centre for Conservation for the annual Toronto Region Conservation Authority Sugarbush Maple Syrup Festival. The exhibits include demonstrations of how an evaporator works in the syrup making process. Dave Connell and Michelle Connelly were demonstrating how it works.

AUTOMOTIVE

MOTOR VEHICLE dealers in Ontario MUST be registered with OMVIC. To verify dealer registration or seek help with a complaint, visit www.omvic.on.ca or 1-800-943-6002. If you're buying a vehicle privately, don't become a curbsider's victim.
