“Serving the Northern Shores of Superior Best!”

As trail conditions begin to deteriorate and give way to spring weather, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) wish to remind all Motorized Snow Vehicle (MSV) riders to be attentive and mindful of the hazards warmer weather presents.

The substantial snowfall this winter has produced extreme slush conditions wreaking havoc on area lakes. There are a number of concerns in regards to these types of calls including location and time.

With the drop in temperatures during the night, getting stuck in slush could quickly become

a life and death situation. Not to mention the unnecessary risk to emergency personnel who respond to these calls under dangerous conditions.

The continually warming temperatures will be creating unstable ice conditions. Many of the small streams that were frozen solid have begun to flow again after the rain last week. The melting snow will expose other hazards to operation such as rocks and fallen trees so please use extra caution whenever you venture out.

Spring weather brings some unique driving challenges for us all with melting, freezing,

snow, rain and flooding. These conditions take a serious toll on the roads and we're going to experience all of them in no particular order over the next few weeks. Please drive cautiously. With temperatures lingering around freezing, wet roads may turn to ice rinks without notice. Deep puddles present serious hazards from hydroplaning to loss of control and they can also hide damaging potholes.

The OPP remind motorists to drive slowly, be prepared and always be mindful of changing road and weather conditions.

Letters to the Editor...

Dear Editor,

Thank you to the 'knucklehead(s)" who threw out fish guts or whatever over the hill where we walk our dogs (snow dump). Fine; ashes to ashes and give the coyotes and ravens a chance to survive -- but please, not so close to home and worse -- take it out of the plastic bag!

My curious dog, searching in overdrive to find the source of the stinking scent, found, and devoured such a bag without my notice. We let our dogs romp, and explore freely while we humans chat.

The next day, my buddy acted strange. I could see he was in distress, struggling to relieve himself. Eventually after several minutes, he gave 'birth' to a long, half-digested shopping bag, including the knot that had secured what was in it originally.

What happened was painful to watch, but my pet was lucky. It could have easily gone the wrong way, with a sky high vet bill for surgery or worse -- death. What happens to the wildlife eating these stinky windfalls?

So, please use some common sense and think before you toss.

Karin Grundt P.S. Isn't littering a chargeable offence?

Carol Hughes, M.P.

Algoma-Manitoulin-Kapuskasing

Unpacking The Federal Budget The political theatre that overshadowed the delivery of the budget may have helped insulate the government from a more complete reaction to what has been described as an unfocussed attempt to shore up support without allocating enough resources to move important issues toward resolution. Lost in the commotion was the fact that this is a disappointing budget for Canadians who need help right now to make ends meet.

For Northern Ontario there are few specifics but what jumps of the page is the tiny sum of $6 million allocated to our regional development agency, FedNor. If the government were pulling back on investments through these agencies entirely it might not stick out, but the Atlantic and Northern agencies received $67 million and $95 million respectively. It begs the question, does the government have a vision when it comes to developing Northern Ontario’s economy?

What is welcome is the money set aside for forestry, but the details of that aren’t spelled out and it remains to be seen exactly how much Northern Ontario will see.

Underfunding is a common theme on issues that will make a difference to First Nations.

There is less money for Jordan’s

Principle than what the experts deemed was necessary. The money set aside for on-reserve water infrastructure the investment over the next five years doesn’t come anywhere near the $2.5 billion the Parliamentary Budget officer said was needed modernize and repair this critical infrastructure. There’s no new core funding for on-reserve primary and secondary education and no new funding for onreserve housing, despite urgent needs and enormous backlogs for repair, construction, or mould detection and remediation.

Some of the headlines this week made it seem that seniors on the Guaranteed Income Supplement will be allowed to work without a financial penalty, but that isn’t entirely true. The benchmark for claw-backs has gone up, but there will still be claw-backs and it doesn’t address the bigger problem which is that so many seniors are struggling in retirement. The same can be said for the increase in GIS top up payments which could be as much as $80 a month. It’s a start, but the government could have done much better. In the last campaign, New Democrats proposed an increase that would have lifted 200,000 seniors out of poverty with a more robust GIS. According to projections

in the budget, the government’s increase will help about a quarter that number.

Infrastructure remains a priority for many Canadians and there is money in this budget that will not be parsed through the Infrastructure Bank, which is welcome news. A former assistant to the Parliamentary Budget Officer remains concerned however, that infrastructure spending has been relatively haphazard and mostly driven by political expediency. He says the government still hasn’t created a national infrastructure program, or clearly defined why they are spending in any region or on specific projects.

Perhaps the biggest disappointment was that there was nothing to move us toward a universal publicly delivered pharmacare program in the budget.

Even Conservatives are agreeing with New Democrats that what was included in the budget will not deliver on pharmacare. That money is only going to create an agency that will replace the current two agencies in approving drugs and their pricing.

Pharmacare has the potential to transform the lives of millions of Canadians who struggle to afford the medication they need.

What is clear from the budget, is that those who struggle will continue do so.

Fraud Prevention Month: It Pays To Check Your Bank Notes Do you know how to check the security features of Canada’s polymer bank notes, including the vertical $10 note featuring Viola Desmond? If your answer is no, or you’re not entirely sure, read on!

All of Canada’s polymer notes have leading-edge security features, helping us to stay ahead of counterfeiting threats.

These features are quick and easy to check by sight and touch.

You can check all your polymer notes in the same way— feel, look and flip: • Feel the smooth, unique texture of the note. It is made from a single piece of polymer with some transparent areas.

• Feel the raised ink on the large number, the large portrait, and the words “Bank of Canada” and “Banque du Canada.”

• Look for transparency in the large window.

• Look at the detailed metallic images and symbols in the large transparent window.

• Flip the note to see the

elements inside the large transparent window repeated in the same colours and detail on the other side.

By now you may have seen the new $10 note in your cash transactions. Did you know the new bill includes some enhanced security features compared with other polymer notes?

• A colour-shifting eagle feather that changes from gold to green • A 3-D maple leaf that appears to be raised but is actually flat • Three maple leaves above the portrait You can learn about the vertical $10 and watch a video about its security features at https://www.bankofcanada.ca/ banknotes/vertical10/.

DID YOU KNOW? There are more than 2.2 billion genuine notes in circulation in Canada. Bank notes are a vital method of payment used in over 30 per cent of retail transactions.

The Bank of Canada works to keep counterfeit levels low in Canada by

•

strengthening bank note security through ongoing research and development; • working with retailers to increase bank note verification; • working with law enforcement agencies to promote counterfeit deterrence; and • ensuring the quality of notes in circulation.

MORE TIPS Whether you’re the clerk or the customer, you can help stop counterfeit notes from entering the cash flow. Check your notes, and you’ll be able to detect a counterfeit at a glance.

• Compare a suspicious note to one you know is genuine. Look for differences, not similarities.

• Check two or more security features.

• If you do not know how to check an older paper note, ask for a polymer note instead.

How to beat Str8ts – Like Sudoku, no single number can repeat in any row or column. But... rows and columns are divided by black squares into compartments. These need to be filled in with numbers that complete a ‘straight’. A straight is a set of numbers with no gaps but can be in any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black cells remove that number as an option in that row and column, and are not part of any straight. Glance at the solution to The solutions will be published here in the next issue. see how ‘straights’ are formed.

Merci aux enseignants et enseignantes d’avoir aidé et préparé les élèves à vivre une telle réussite ! A+

Ontario Convening Leaders to Discuss Great Lakes, Water Protection To mark World Water Day, Ontario's government is working for the people to protect the water quality and ecosystems of the Great Lakes as part of its commitment in the Madein-Ontario Environment Plan.

On April 23, Rod Phillips, Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, will convene the Great Lakes Guardians' Council, in memory of Josephine Mandamin, to discuss emerging issues around the Great Lakes. The council meeting will address excess road salt and sewer overflows into our waterways and inform the government's review of Ontario's Great Lakes Strategy and the negotiation of a new Canada-Ontario Great Lakes Agreement.

"Our government is committed to protecting Ontario's precious lakes, waterways and groundwater sources. Forums like the council provide an important role in identifying priorities for action such as plastic pollution, stormwater and harmful algae," said Rod Phillips, Minister of the Environment, Conservation

and Parks. "I look forward to working with the council and hearing from partners around the table on how we can tackle the pressures our water resources are facing and ensure we protect the pristine beauty of our Great Lakes."

Convening the Great Lakes Guardians' Council is part of the government's Made-inOntario Environment Plan to protect our air, land and water, prevent and reduce litter and waste, support Ontarians to continue to do their share to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and help communities and families increase their resilience to climate change.

The plan will help protect the Ontario we know and love, ensuring that its pristine beauties and strong communities can be enjoyed now and in the future.

The meeting will honour Josephine Mandamin, an Anishinaabe grandmother, Elder, water protector, and activist. In 2003, she co-founded Mother Earth Water Walk, circumnavigating the shores of all five Great Lakes, a total

distance of more than 17,000 km. Currently, Josephine's total kilometres walked for the water has been tallied at over 25,000 kilometers. In the role of Chief Commissioner of the Anishinabek Nation Women's Water Commission, Josephine was a predominant contributor at the Great Lakes Guardians' Council.

QUICK FACTS •The Great Lakes provide drinking water to more than 70 per cent of Ontarians and their watersheds are home to more than 4,000 species of fish, birds and other living things.

•Ontario’s more than 250,000 lakes, including the Great Lakes, contain about one fifth of the world’s fresh water.

•This year’s World Water Day theme is “Leaving no one behind” as part of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. The aim is to ensure that water is sustainably managed and available for all, including marginalized groups.

With Jim White

"The Resolutions" A Short Story Series Chapter 10

When Henry got home from work that Thursday afternoon, he was nervous as hell. He wasn't sure what mood Alice might be in, after being inside all day, nursing that arm flesh wound that he had inflicted on her. What made him most nervous was this meeting with his bookie that night at 8 pm.

He had his money all counted and bundled, ready to pay up his tab. He finished that at noon hour when he went to the bank and withdrew most of his last pay cheque. He added that to what he 'earned' the previous night at Mac's. He only took a half hour for lunch, as he wanted to get home early, and get supper over (and to see how Alice was doing, of course...) He called her about 1 pm to find out, but just got the answering machine.

He presumed that she was in the bathroom, or really sound asleep. He meant to call again later, but got busy, and never got a chance to do it.

He got home about 4:45 pm, and went inside. As he took his coat off in the hallway, he called out to Alice. He got no reply. So he went from room to room, until he entered the bedroom. The blind had been pulled up, and so the room was well lit. He saw her at the closet door, with his back to him. She was busy sliding all the clothes hanging on the rod down to one end. Then with one last stretch, she reached into the far back, and pulled out what she was looking for.

As she backed out, she triumphantly displayed that dress that she was looking for.

At the same time as she cried out, “Aha”, he realized what she was doing. He called out to her, in order to hopefully distract her. 'Hi, Alice, how are you doing? Did you have...”

He stopped in mid-sentence as he saw that he was too late.

“Oh, hi, Henry. Look what I found. I knew that dress was still here. I want to try it on – see if I can still get into it. Is the closet ever fresh. You must have been spraying that air freshener stuff in here recently. Whew!” She lay the dress down on the rumpled bed, and was getting ready to take off her jeans and top.

Henry panicked again – for the how many thousands of times over the last day?- “Ugh, Alice, do you have to try it on now? How is supper coming along? You know I have to go out tonight. You can try it on then. Eh, hon... come on now.”

He approached her, and gently wrapped his arm around her waist, and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

“Ow, watch my arm. It still hurts. I just finished bandaging

it again. The darn thing keeps bleeding. This is the third time I have had to do it.”

“Oops, sorry, hon. I forgot.

Will I kiss and make it better?”

He made an effort of giving her 'all better kisses' on her neck, and down her upper arm.

He stopped where the padding started. She pulled away, giggling. “Stop it. That tickles.”

Then she got serious on him.

“You know, I swear this dress has been worn lately. There is a hint of perfume on the material – and it looks wrinkled.

She looked down at the dress, and his eyes followed also to the dress. “Oh, come on now.

That's impossible. You haven't had it on, and it's stuck way in the back of the closet. It's just your imagination.”

She shrugged. “Yes, I am sure you're right. But there is another odd thing here in this bedroom.” She went over to the dresser, and picked up 2 small bottles. “See these – a bottle of perfume—Chanel no.

5; and nail polish. I don't use either of these.” Suddenly she swung around at the dresser, and with a look of horror on her face, she exclaimed with a shocked look “Oh, my God, that was you at the holdup last night, wasn't it? NO, no, no. Please say it isn't so.” She leaned against the dresser, and began to sob uncontrollably. Henry moved over towards her, but she pushed him away. “Get away from me, you...” She ran out past him from the bedroom, down to the bathroom, slamming the door behind her.

Henry didn't know what to do next. He looked at the dress on the bed, and the bottles on the dresser. Then he looked around, and headed to the bathroom. Calling through the door, he begged for her to listen to him. “Alice, please.

I don't know how that stuff got there.” He paused as he tried to think of something to say to calm her down. He came up with: “Didn't I get you those for Christmas last year. I am sure you told me that you didn't like that kind of perfume, and the nail polish was the wrong colour? I likely moved them to where you found them on the dresser as I was looking for the loose change we have on that dish there. Please come out, and help me with supper. After my meeting tonight, we can have a good talk. You are upset with the medication and the shock yet. I'll fix you a nice rum and coke. I'll get supper started.

Please, Alice, c'mon out.”

Finally, after a few minutes her sobbing faded away, and he heard the toilet flushing.

Then the water was running.

Shortly thereafter, she opened the door, and came out. She

squeezed past him, and headed to the kitchen.

Suddenly, it was like nothing had just happened at all.

She seemed like her old self.

“You go ahead and sit down in the living room. Turn on TV, and let me know what's happening on the Young and Restless. I'll finish up in here.

I have the potatoes and veggies all ready to go. I'm ready for that rum and coke now. How about making one for yourself too, instead of a beer. That will go better with supper. A beer is just too filling, now that supper is nearly ready.” He came out to the kitchen and got their drinks ready. He took his drink into the living room.

He put hers on the counter. He heard her fussing about. He didn't know what to think. He stared at the TV, but couldn't settle down. He called out to her, “I'll just go and clean up and change while you're doing that. Be back in a minute.” She didn't reply. He went into the bedroom, gathered up the dress and bottles, and tip-toed down the hall until he got to the kitchen doorway. He peeked around the corner, and saw her at the stove. Her back was towards him. He made a quick dash past her, and out the front door. Normally they used the back door in the kitchen. But of course he couldn't do that this time. He then went to the garage, and tossed them into the garbage can. He didn't have time to rationalize what he was doing. He just knew he had to hide these things from her.

He rushed back into the house via the front door again, and checking the kitchen again, he darted past her back to the bedroom. He changed into his blue jeans and shirt. Then he went back through the living room – and this time making a grand entrance into the kitchen to check on supper.

While he was setting the table, he happened to mention that he had called her just after lunch. She quickly suggested that she was likely in the bathroom about that time, patching her arm up. Then she immediately turned her back on him again, ostensibly stirring the vegetables. She started babbling about how she needed to rearrange the pots and pans, and clean the stove. It was not like her at all. But Henry never picked up on this strange gesture, and chatter.

He just went back to the living room, seeing he could not do any more there. Every once in a while, he called out what was happening on the Y&R, just to keep things light and easy.

But then over supper, it was like the switch went off. They ate in silence at first. Then as they finished their main course, Alice broke the ice by bringing up the subject of that nights' meeting. “I hope that tonight is the last time you are going to be betting. This gambling addiction has gotten way out of hand. You need help. I found out that there is a chapter of Gamblers Anonymous here in town. I want you to promise me that you will sign up for it, please – for your sake

as well as mine. I can't keep this up anymore! Please say you will do it.”

Henry readily agreed – too quickly, he knew. He was just relieved that she didn't bring up the dress issue again. She concluded with a declaration.

“When you get back tonight, you are right - we need to have a real serious talk. So get this business over with, and get back here immediately. I expect you here by 8:30 at the latest. That should be more than enough time for you to pay him off, let him know you are through with him, and get back here – right?” He was shocked at how forceful she had become all of a sudden. He nodded in agreement, “Yep, absolutely, hon. That should be lots of time.” He got up from the table and got ready to go.

He headed out a little after 7:00 p.m. He needed time to think what he was going to say to his bookie, and to Alice afterwards. Thankfully for him, Alice didn't question why he was leaving so early. The last words to him as he went out the door was good luck and be forceful. He had called back a yeah, and absolutely, although he didn't feel that strong. By 7:30 he was a nervous wreck, and decided to head in to the bar and have a stiff drink, to 'buck' him up until his appointment at 8 o'clock. It was dimly lit, and quiet, with only a couple of guys sipping beers at the bar, and one booth with four people chatting quietly as they nibbled on some nacho chips and wine. He would have preferred to have sat the far end of the bar, but thought he might stand out too much, so he sat down beside the other two, ordered another rum and coke.

Thankfully as far as Henry was concerned, the people at the bar just glanced at him, mumbled a 'hi there', and went back to their conversations.

Although it was only 7:30 pm, he was surprised to see

The ALGOMA NEWS Review

that his bookie was already at his booth 'office' in the back, and he had another 'client' with him. He watched as the 'client' surreptitiously passed an envelope across the table top. He quickly got up, and hurried out the side door.

Just as Henry was about to turn away, and sip on his drink, he waved him over. Henry gulped, then checked his coat pocket to make sure he had his envelope ready, and with his drink in hand, nervously made his way down to him.

“Sit down. Glad to see you, and ahead of time too. That pleases me.”

And so the meeting began...

VISIONknit Limited Creates World’s First Knit Canoe

4

CANDIDATES FOR COUNCILLORS

This count was diligently conducted in accordance with the Indian Band Election Regulations.

March 24, 2019 Vaughn Johnston Electoral Officer

The ALGOMA NEWS Review

VISIONknit Limited, North America’s leading technical 3D knitting company based in Toronto, ON is pleased to announce the launch of the World’s First 3D Knit Canoe in conjunction with Composite Creations and OHM Industrial Designers Inc. The VISIONknit developed material revolutionizes every aspect of the current canoe market. Utilizing a unique patent pending 3D knit material construction canoeists are no longer limited to the low end choice of heavy, plastic canoes that can be difficult to repair or the ultra light but expensive high end Kevlar/Fibreglass/ Carbon canoe that are prone to delamination and damage. The VISIONknit 3D knit canoe provides a lightweight sustainable construction, superior durability and unique built-in design capability at a competitive price point.

VISIONknit’s world leading design team tapped into their skills and knowledge gained through years of devel-

opment in the furniture, footwear and fashion industries.

“As per our website, our goal is to knit revolutionary new textiles which would result in superior material performance, downstream shop floor savings and significant material waste savings. This new patent pending “hybrid” Kevlar Polyester material, called KR18, does just that” says Andrew Mullins, President of VISIONknit Limited.

Composite Creations, one of Canada’s premier advanced composite manufacturers, worked with VISIONknit in their R & D from the beginning. The fabric results were so successful Composite Creations created a spin-off company based solely on this new KR18 fabric – VISION Canoe. Inspired by the significant production time savings, the reduction in waste by creating shaped parts and the elimination of labour and material costs in both the layup and graphic design process, Composite Creations was con-

fident a VISION Canoe would be a unique, desirable and innovative addition to the current canoe market.

In addition to the abovenoted savings, significant performance and durability results were key factors in the decision to bring the Vision Canoe to market. A leading Canadian materials testing laboratory showed the Elongation at Break or Fracture Strain (the capability of the material to resist changes in shape without cracking) was 24 times better than Kevlar or Fibreglass composites. “Flexing without fracturing was critical in this specific application” says Andrew Mullins.

Andy Phillips, President of Composite Creations and the newly created Vision Canoe believes that “the icing on the cake when it comes to the VISION Canoe is VISIONknit’s ability to create designs and colour schemes that are built into the fabric, not painted or stuck on with decals which come off over time. Any fibreglass application can benefit from this new material.” He also adds “and it’s knit, so it can easily conform to various shapes during lay-up which is critical when using shaped molds.”

On Tuesday, March 19th, 2019 an Open House and official ribbon cutting ceremony was held at Algoma Power Inc. (API)‘s new work centre location in Desbarats. Those in attendance included API employees, members of our Executive team, community dignitaries from the surrounding local areas and many of the local contractors directly involved in the construction project.

API replaced an end of life facility in Desbarats to maintain operational service and response time (driving time) to customers east of Sault Ste. Marie. The building is energy efficient and has space for API’s crew and fleet.

The company focussed on sourcing providers from local contractors and businesses within API’s service territory wherever

possible, including materials, service and equipment. Algoma Power entrusted Thomas Young Builders to construct the new facility; leveraging their long standing reputation for quality workmanship and superior service to customers. The project was completed and delivered ahead of schedule and API is very satisfied with the final prod-

uct.

The new service centre will enable API to continue to maintain a local presence in servicing the communities in Desbarats, Bruce Mines, St. Joseph Island and surrounding areas in providing safe and reliable electricity to its customers and reflects API’s ongoing commitment to the local communities it serves.
