No matter what routine you travel, you are likely to meet-up with a School Bus. Plan ahead, give yourself that extra few minutes of travelling time so you won't become impatient. We all know School Busses make frequent stops to pickup and drop off our children, so it shouldn't come as a big surprise that our daily commute will be longer. It's also important to remember that School Bus routes and stops change, year-to-year and sometimes day-to- day. As a responsible driver you must be ever alert for School Busses travel- ling in your area. School Busses are purposely made to be visible as possible, with their bright colour, flashing lights and stop bars. Do not expect any leniency, when school busses are involved, if stopped by the police for disobeying the law. You will receive a fine, of several hundred dollars and be assessed 6 demerit points.

Yours in comradeship, Grant increase for energy-efficient homes Natural Resources Canada is now investing more money into grants for homeowners who improve their energy-effi- ciency through the EnerGuide for Houses service. While an incentive grant has been available since October of 2003, the reward level has now been increased by $100 across each step. For example, if you improve from a 60 to a 70 you will get $650, whereas previously it would have only been $550. The increase in the grant means that the cost of using the EnerGuide for Houses service ends up being free, if the required three points of improvement is achieved. The lowest grant is $215, which more than pays for the total cost of both required visits of $175. The higher grant rewards will apply to all existing cli- ents of the Halton Residential Energy Efficiency Project (REEP), even though at the time of the pre-test the smaller grant table was in use. All new clients will automati- cally be rewarded on the new scale (provided they improve their EGH rating by at least 3 points). Homeowners use REEP to get a baseline EGH rating, advice on what upgrades to perform and a follow-up rat- ing. Then REEP sends in their grant application. Until March 31, 2006, if the upgrades undertaken in- clude the installation of an ENERGY STAR®-qualified high-efficiency furnace, a direct incentive of up to $100 will be awarded. This is on top of any EnerGuide for Houses Retrofit Incentive grant. Homeowners wishing to access these incentives can call 866-501-1112, or book through www.thereep.ca.
