However, she said that Jim Eadie, a police officer who recently retired, was head of the centre's board and he worked tirelessly for the centre.

He does some really romantic songs as well. I am a very strong feminist but not in music." But Tapestry by Carole King holds a special place in her heart. "My favourite album of all time." Charlebois has other interests, too, including reading and movies. "I love to read." She is into The Power of Now, a book that puts the focus on the present, rather than worrying so much about the past and future.

But that shouldn't be a surprise, given her beliefs. "I value family and friends very much." As for the battle of the sexes and sexual assaults on youngsters and older males and females, they will both unfortunately continue. "It's all about power and control," Charlebois said.
