The Brandon Humane Society has been in operation since 1946 when it was founded by Eleanor Kidd. She originally housed the shelter in her garage on 13th Street, then in an abandoned stable near Empress Bay, and later in an old barn near the riverbank where Eleanor Kidd Gardens are now located. In 1997, the shelter moved to its new premises at 2200 17th Street East. These days, our residents-both cats and dogs-live in a comfortable building with heat and air conditioning, two large exercise yards, an enclosed cat patio, and enough kennels for 20 cats and 13 dogs. When our kennels are full, our dedicated volunteers foster animals in their own homes. Since this is a no-kill shelter, the atmosphere is very positive... our animals are loved and well cared for as they wait to be adopted. We invite you to come visit us and see for yourself! Our Mandate. The Brandon Humane Society's constitution states that the Society :-has the primary purpose of providing aid and assistance to companion animals,-will accept unwanted companion animals into the shelter when space is available,-will make every effort to find homes for animals in our care,-and will educate the public on companion animal needs, especially the importance of sterilization.

La ligue des États arabes est née le 22 mars 1945 à Alexandrie. L'Égypte, l'Irak, le Liban, l'Arabie Saoudite, la Syrie, la Transjordanie et le Yémen (Nord) ont porté l'organisation sur les fonts baptismaux. Avec la fin de la domination coloniale, elle s'est élargie et compte désormais vingt et un membres : en plus des membres fondateurs, on trouve la Libye, le Soudan, la Tunisie, le Maroc, le Koweït, l'Algérie, les Émirats arabes unis, Bahreïn, Oman, la Mauritanie, la Somalie, Djibouti et les Comores, plus l'Organisation de libération de la Palestine (OLP) qui est membre à part entière depuis 1976. Le siège de la Ligue a été transféré du Caire à Tunis en 1979, après la signature du traité de paix israélo-égyptien. Il faudra dix ans pour que Le Caire réintègre l'organisation, et la guerre du Golfe pour que le siège de la Ligue retourne, le 31 octobre 1990, en Égypte.

We have seen a number of name changes over the last 60 years as the words Blue Cross were becoming synonymous worldwide with quality health care coverage. We were founded as the Maritime Hospital Service Association in 1943 and became known as the Maritime Blue Cross-Blue Shield Association in 1954. We became Blue Cross of Atlantic Canada in 1986 and, when joined with Maritime Medical Care in 1999, the trade name Atlantic Blue Cross Care was adopted. Our expansion into the Quebec and Ontario markets led to the need for a new name that would encompass all three regions. We created the name "Medavie" because it decribes our business and works well in both our English and French markets. Medavie is derived from the English and French words for "medical" and "to life". We offer everything from medical to life insurance.
