Newly elected Liberal MP Daniel Gobeil says his experience as a dairy farmer and agricultural leader will help him be a voice in Ottawa for a Quebec region on the front lines of the Canada-U.S. trade war.

The water tower, 110 ft high and holding 104,000 gallons, has become a familiar landmark for generations of NSAC students and alumni. The tower was not only a landmark, but an important part of the campus water system. The elevated tank provided water-storage capacity for the campus, including equalization and emergency
