What Happened
As many of you knew from past updates, encryption was coming — and with it, the Renfrew County Scanner could no longer operate as it had for so many years. The final day of service was May 15th.
There were also personal changes that accelerated this timeline. Over the past year, I left a 20-year career and began a new position. Continuing to operate RCS created a conflict of interest with my new employer.
While this service was never about money, it also wasn't sustainable — so the time came to bring it to a close.
Thank you to everyone who listened, shared, and supported this service over the years. It was a privilege to serve Renfrew County.
