The following are brief reports of items discussed during a Feb. 24 online meeting of Haliburton County council.
Council passed a resolution providing support in principle for the activities of the Haliburton-CKL Long-Term Care Coalition, receiving a presentation from co-chairs Bonnie Roe and Mike Perry.
While the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the shortcomings of the long-term care system, Roe told councillors the system has been broken for decades.

The federal government has told the Eastern Ontario Regional Network (EORN) that it does not qualify for money from its $1.75-billion Universal Broadband Fund, dashing the network’s hopes of immediate government support for its ambitious rural internet program.
Warden Roger Haley of the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville gave the bad news to his council on Thursday, saying the federal government told EORN that the fund is available only to municipal projects, not such regional projects as EORN’s.
