Sydney funeral home closing its doors - Cape Breton Post

There is believed to be extensive damage to the chapel area. An investigation by the provincial fire marshal's office and Cape Breton Reginal Police Service has concluded the fire to be an act of arson. "We were advised by the funeral home that they plan on surrendering their licence," said Rodger Gregg, registrar of cemetery and funeral services for Service Nova Scotia. Gregg said they received this decision in writing on Feb. 11. "That means once we've gone through the process we'd be canceling their funeral home licence." However, Gregg said, they have concerns regarding anyone who might have prearrangements in place with this company. "Right now, there's no money placed in trust by that funeral home," he said. "We want to take this opportunity to please encourage the public if they've paid for prearrangements to that funeral home to get in touch with us. We want them to come forward, so we can work with them and hopefully get them a refund. If it's not (done) and that funeral home closes, it will be more difficult to get that money back." Jill Nemis, managing director of S.W. Chant & Son Funeral Home, denies they are closing. Jill Nemis "This is the first time I've heard of any of this," she said. "I don't know if it's wishful thinking on their behalf - I have no idea. "We're not going anywhere." When asked to speak to the owner Rev. Sheldon Chant, Nemis said he was tied up with appointments and meetings and was too emotionally dist...

‘Write me soon. Stay safe’: A story of Canada’s opioid crisis, told in letters from prison - The Globe and Mail

Herd. His mother and sisters called him Manie – little man – because he was the only boy in the family. Story continues below advertisement He was torn away from his home on Saskatchewan's Peepeekisis First Nation to be educated in church-run residential schools, emerging scarred by sexual and physical abuse. For years, he would cross the street to avoid passing a Catholic church. A skilled outdoorsman who liked to fish for pike and hunt deer, beaver, bear and moose, he fell into a pattern of drinking, drug taking and fighting that kept him behind bars for most of his adult life. Pictures in an album show Mr. Daniels as an adult; a tattoo on Ms. Barber's back, below, shows him as a child. Tijana Martin/The Globe and Mail Moira Barber, his common-law wife for 13 years, met him when she was dealing drugs in Guelph, Ont., and needed someone to collect money for her. She asked for the hardest, meanest dude in town. But Mr. Daniels had another side, Ms. Barber says. He was a keen artist who sometimes drew tattoos for a living. He loved roughhousing with her grandchildren, rolling around with them gleefully until the long hair that stretched down his back was a tangled mess. Mr. Kell grew up in London, Ont., 90 minutes down the 401 highway from Mr. Daniels. He started using drugs when he was a teenager. Before long, he was dealing cannabis and injecting hard stuff. As he puts it now, he would keep using until he ended up in the back of a police car. Between some 20 incarcerations, he tried over and over to get clean. He suffered several overdoses, coming close to death. In Spencer Kell's dining room, angel and devil portraits drawn by Mr. Daniels hang behind him. Blair Gable Mr. Kell and Mr. Daniels forged their friendship during two stints sharing a cell at Maplehurst. On the range at "the Hurst," they won respect for their experience and toughness. Mr. Daniels had an ugly temper. He could flip on you in a second, Mr. Kell says. But he stuck up for the underdogs, especially the new guys. Mr. Kell looked up to Mr. D...
