PROVINCIAL ELECTION October 5
One of the most important questions for Quebecers in the Oct. 5 election is which party can best work with Ottawa and other provinces to strengthen our position in the face of economic and political disruption created by the Trump government.

Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on the people and things in our lives that we should be grateful for. We are fortunate to live in this community.
It is a safe and caring place in a beautiful setting. But what makes it even more special are the people. Those who care about community, quality of life, civic and environmental responsibility and the well-being of others. We should be especially thankful for the many volunteers who do exceptional work. They provide help and support for those in need. They organize activities that make us reflect, create, stay healthy and laugh.
From all of us volunteers at Tempo, to all the volunteers who make our community a wonderful place to live and to write about, a huge thank you.
Putting Knowlton on the map
Knowlton’s Literary Festival Oct 15 – 17, again this year, is expected to bring hundreds of visitors to town to enjoy the works of great writers and poets and stimulating conversations.
For more than a decade now, the Festival has been one of Knowlton’s most successful events, welcoming writers and promoting reading. World-renowned author Louise Penny, Brome Lake Books and the many volunteers who organize the event do a spectacular job of showcasing English-language literature. The Festival also puts Knowlton firmly on the map of the literary world. Congratulations and thank you. We look forward to another successful Festival.
While we are on the topic of great events, the Knowlton Film Festival just keeps getting better and better year after year. What started out humbly in 2018, has now become a must-attend event, with its latest edition in August drawing hundreds of film lovers and excitement into town. Congratulations to Brome Lake Theatre director Pierre-David Rodrigue and all the people who make the festival and theatre shine. It was a huge success.
Streets bloom with civic pride
This year, our town’s public flower arrangements have turned ordinary streets into corridors of color, and residents have taken notice. Crafted and cared for by town employees, these vibrant blooms reflect the joy, beauty and harmony that define our community. Next time you pass a burst of flowers on Lakeside or Knowlton Rd. take a moment to be thankful for people who take pride in their work.
