The award serves to build upon the history of our city and the incredible patrons who have built its past and present. Those nominated have received national and/or international recognition in their field of work or endeavour. Nominees have included those in the arts, professions, politics, business, philanthropy, athletics and more. In all cases, the nominees and, ultimately the inductees, have made a substantial impact on the destiny of Orillia. In order to ensure the legacy of the deeds and achievements of our Orillia citizenship, we invite nominations of those who inspire and illuminate. Details regarding criteria and deadlines are available at orillia.ca/halloffame. Take some time to visit the display of the 50+ inductees at the Orillia City Centre in the hall outside of the council chamber. 4 Chair’s Remarks Orillia isn’t just a beautiful city. It’s a colourful story of vibrant characters, impressive progress and genuine community. It boasts a culture that has raised small town principles to meet global achievements. The individuals celebrated in this book rose to greatness through committed effort, phenomenal talent, and the support of a beautifully knit City of Orillia. It is my great honour to be a part of a committee that is granted the privilege of learning about our citizens’ incredible achievements and overwhelming inspiration. The Commemorative Awards Committee invites you to read through these profiles and learn about our city’s most remarkable characters. We believe in the people in our community, one that has so much diversity in thought and talent. Orillia will continue to produce incredible accomplishments much as we see in the pages of this publication. Help to write the next chapter of our story.

    GSK-3Β in Mouse Fibroblasts Controls Wound

    Research article GSK-3β in mouse fibroblasts controls wound healing and fibrosis through an endothelin-1– dependent mechanism Mohit Kapoor,1 Shangxi Liu,1 Xu Shi-wen,2 Kun Huh,1 Matthew McCann,1 Christopher P. Denton,2 James R. Woodgett,3 David J. Abraham,2 and Andrew Leask1 1Division of Oral Biology and Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada. 2Centre for Rheumatology, University College London, London, United Kingdom. 3Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Glycogen synthase kinase–3 (GSK-3) is a widely expressed and highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase encoded by 2 genes, GSK3A and GSK3B. GSK-3 is thought to be involved in tissue repair and fibrogen- esis, but its role in these processes is currently unknown. To investigate the function of GSK-3β in fibroblasts, we generated mice harboring a fibroblast-specific deletion of Gsk3b and evaluated their wound-healing and fibrogenic responses. We have shown that Gsk3b-conditional-KO mice (Gsk3b-CKO mice) exhibited accelerated wound closure, increased fibrogenesis, and excessive scarring compared with control mice. In addition, Gsk3b- CKO mice showed elevated collagen production, decreased cell apoptosis, elevated levels of profibrotic α-SMA, and increased myofibroblast formation during wound healing. In cultured Gsk3b-CKO fibroblasts, adhesion, spreading, migration, and contraction were enhanced. Both Gsk3b-CKO mice and fibroblasts showed elevated expression and production of endothelin-1 (ET-1) compared with control mice and cells. Antagonizing ET-1 reversed the phenotype of Gsk3b-CKO fibroblasts and mice. Thus, GSK-3β appears to control the progression of wound healing and fibrosis by modulating ET-1 levels.

Although the library itself has disappeared, the surprising list of titles collected by Miss Cowie, as well as the lively literary correspondence she left behind in fonds at the University of British Columbia, provides a remarkable snapshot of literary activity in Canada in the 1920s and 1930s.

In spectacular contrast, the eighty-three Canadian writers with whom Cowie corresponded comprise a significantly larger universe of Canadian print culture in the process of expanding, stimulated by a grow- ing reading public, modernizing media, and emerging middlebrow tastes.
