Walking’s a blessing

Dear Editor:

Forty years ago I attended a country school, where an OPP officer  visited once a year. An exciting highlight! He taught us safety, road rules, and on rare occasions he brought his German shepherd dog.

We were taught to walk on the left side of the road facing oncoming traffic. Is this no longer taught today? Maybe its not important, but is it less confusing if consistency is practised, especially during this time of physical distancing.

So let’s count our blessing if we are able to walk, and that we are yet allowed to walk in the great outdoors. Enjoy the exercise.

Keep up the good work to produce this worthwhile paper!

D. Martin,
