News – What a difference a week makes. During the regular meeting of Carleton Place council June 10, politicians unanimously agreed to table a motion to proceed with SNC-Lavalin for the design of a ground water pump and treat system (PTS) and prepare specifications for its construction and operation to clean up the tetrachloroethylene (PCE) DNAPL (dense non-aqueous phase liquid) below Lake Avenue East/ 7 Beckwith St. The motion was originally passed June 3, during the physical environment committee meeting, when the staff recommendation carried with a 5-2 recorded vote. Councillors Louis Antonakos and Jerry Flynn voted against it. “I believe there is enough concern amongst a number of

people – councillors and the general public – to have further discussion (at the committee level) before committing ourselves to a contract,” Sonnenburg said. The PTS technology involves pumping groundwater from the subsurface to remove (mainly) dissolved contaminants. Then the extracted water is treated to remove contaminants prior to discharging the water. Chief administrative officer (CAO) Paul Knowles used the scenario of a bar of soap in the shower. “If you run the water long enough the soap goes away,” he said. “That’s basically what we would be doing – pumping water from the ground and running it by the contaminate. Then the contaminate water would be brought to the surface and treated.” See CLEAN-UP page A/CP2

CDSBEO receives two national awards for mental health initiatives, leadership cant steps forward the CDSBEO has taken in raising awareness of the importance of recognizing that mental health issues happen as a part of life, that mental illness must be viewed no differently than physical illnesses, and that acceptance and reaching out for early intervention is key to recovery and maintaining wellness through prevention, supports and treatments.” “We are so honoured to be recognized in this way by the Mood Disorders Society of Canada,” noted Gartland. “This is truly an important initiative for the board, and the support we’ve received from MDSC has been paramount in our success. It is truly a collaborative effort, and we know these initiatives have begun to instill a new culture of awareness for our students and staff.” Board chair Brent Laton remarked, “We are certainly honoured to receive this award in recognition of the efforts of our board in the area of mental health. We are very proud to have partnered with this leading national organization as we work towards raising awareness and reducing the stigma surrounding mental illness.” After the presentation of the Jordan James Pickell Award, Starzynski made a surprise presentation of the second award to Gartland. “Bill has changed the face of mental health for this board. He isn’t afraid to talk of his

own family experiences, and this takes away the stigma and the mystique. The Mood Disorders Society of Canada is very proud to be associated with the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario. We have had the privilege of working with Bill and the team he leads. They have been trailblazers in recognizing the need for mental health education,” he said. Clearly unprepared for the honour, Gartland accepted the award. “This is a complete surprise!” he remarked. “I accept this award gratefully, but I accept it on behalf of all of our staff and board members who have helped support and implement these initiatives. ” Laton commented, “I would like to congratulate Bill on behalf of the members of the board; we truly appreciate him bringing these mental health initiatives to our students and staff.” The CDSBEO has implemented many initiatives as part of an ongoing board-wide mental health program, including the Elephant in the Room Anti-Stigma Campaign for awareness about mental illness in the workplace and in the classroom, WITS/ LEAD programs in response to bullying, proactive circles and restorative practices for conflict resolution, and a and a new student bully reporting app, called EMPOWER, which encourages student voice, promotes positive mental health and helps stop student victimization.

Hillier back in the saddle as Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington Across the street at the Best Western Plus Parkside Inn and Spa, the only cheers to be had amongst Liberals gathered for Bill MacDonald, was when campaign manager Roger Martin announced Hudak’s resignation. “It is a bittersweet thing,� said MacDonald, with his party having regained the majority it lost in 2011, but with him again failing to unseat Hillier. “This is a tough riding to paint red.� He said that the Liberals regained full power at Queen’s Park because “I believe people were listening to a more positive message,� than that being put forward by the PCs. He also pointed to the 100,000 jobs cut pledge as being a major issue in the campaign locally. “There was a lot of fear in this riding, about their plans,� he said.

News – Randy Hillier will be returning to Queen’s Park for the third time as MPP of Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington, though he admitted that his party’s 100,000 job cuts pledge hurt his re-election fight. “I am getting used to being in opposition,â€? said Hillier, during his election-night victory party speech at Fiddlehead’s Pub in Perth. “I thought I would be on the government side. (But) the people are always right in a democracy.â€? Raising his glass of beer, he added, “We toast to democracy tonight.â€? Afterwards, Hillier blamed outgoing party leader Tim Hudak’s 100,000 job cuts pledge for giving him an “uphill battle,â€? and “causing reluctance,â€? for some of his previous voters to back him again. He admitted that his majority in the riding was “not as large a majority as last time.â€? He said that the policy had not been “communicated effectively‌ (and) it hit close to home.â€? Speaking just before Hudak announced his resignation, Hillier, who ran against Hudak for the Progressive Conservative leadership in 2009, said, “I only talk about one election per day,â€? but added, “I don’t see any leadership runs on the horizon.â€? Premier Kathleen Wynne was elected as the province’s leader in her own right with a small majority government, bucking the predicted result of a minority government, with

When asked who he thought would run for the PC leadership, he added, “I don’t really care who leads them.�

Lanark County Interval House: 35 years of striking back at violence against women By ASHLEY KULP akulp@perfprint.ca

R0012762317_0619

News – As Lanark County Interval House (LCIH) honours 35 years serving our communities this year, they’ve continued to evolve to meet the needs of women and children facing violent situations. The organization has a deep history, which dates back to May 1979 when LCIH officially opened, though its shelter was already occupied in April by women needing emergency services. “When you think about 35 years, we’ve done some great things and we’ve served women well, but the issues are the same. Women still need a safe place to go and children still need a safe place to go,” said LCIH executive director Erin Lee. “...We will continue to push the envelope, talk about (violence) out loud and take risks. People see us (LCIH) as the rebels, that we’re radical man haters and we’re not. We’re women trying to move forward the agenda of women; that they deserve access to quality of life, education and to feel safe in their homes without feeling a threat.” In establishing the organization, The Hub in Almonte was a big support, along with founding LCIH member Fern Martin. “When Lanark County Interval House was started, it was shortsighted in thinking that violence would end, but 35 years later, it hasn’t ended,” Lee stated. “... The roots of the agency are solid, from our founding mothers to now. We’re not shaking, we’re not compromising on those roots and that’s important.” At the heart of LCIH is its 24-hour

emergency shelter in Carleton Place, which gives women and children a safe place to reside if their safety is threatened. A big expansion for the organization came in 2002 when they opened their first outreach office in Carleton Place to offer services to women who weren’t residing at the shelter, but needed support.

for multiple families. It helps to give the message to the women and children who come to stay at the shelter that they are valued and cared for at a time of great upheaval in their lives.” Over the years, LCIH has had a strong focus on youth as well and two Status of Women Canada grants between 2009 and 2012 allowed them to create the Where is the Love? project to reach teens in high schools and the online Truth for Rural Youth project gave youth a chance to interact and talk about relationships. Funding has ended for these projects, but LCIH still operates the Truth for Rural Youth website ( HYPERLINK “http://trylanarkcounty.com” http://trylanarkcounty.com) and with the help of generous partners, continue to offer a Could This be Love? conference in Perth, attended by high school students across the county. “We wouldn’t have any youth conferences if it weren’t for hospitals and service clubs. We get a little bit (of funding) from everywhere to do the best kind of conferences we can to give the youth a voice,” Lee noted, stating that youth have had a “pivotal influence” on the types of services offered by LCIH. In 2013, LCIH also had the opportunity to enhance their services even more by establishing a court support program for the county. For 8.5 hours a week, the court support worker helps women dealing with the family court system. Most recently, Lee said she is proud of the strong partnerships and relationships LCIH has formed with local agencies, including the Ontario Provincial See LCIH page 9

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR

Impact of proposed bill could see small farms disappear, says reader DEAR EDITOR: I have recently become aware of the dire implications for our Canadian food supply buried in Bill C-18, which is about to receive second reading in Canada’s parliament. Contained in the bill are alterations to regulations governing how seed can be cleaned and stored. This affects how farmers have saved seed for thousands of years from one years’ crop to plant the following year. This is referred to as Farmer’s Privilege. Without being necessary to conform to international standards, as we already meet them, the government of Stephen Harper is making changes that invite multinational seed corporations (Monsanto is one of them) to sell ‘approved’ seed to farmers who, also due to these changes, will find it difficult to save their seed legally. Because the seed the corporations are purveying are IP (Intellectual Property) and protected by legal means, the seed company can potentially charge not only for the seed, which is normal practice, but also impose fees for the season’s processes, such as fertilizing, harvesting, and selling crops. In addition, any neighbouring farm that receives pollen blown over from an IP protected plant becomes subject to the same fees. The likely environmental damages from these seed include: increased monoculture and subsequent loss of plant diversity; the IP plants require

more fertilizers, which have a greater impact on our ground water; IP seed is genetically modified (GMO), which runs counter to the growing movement amongst Canadians for healthy, locally grown food. The impact of this bill will see our small farms disappear because of a far greater debt-load from increased costs, fees and fertilization There is a wealth of information available on the National Farmer’s Union site (nfu.ca). Look for Stop Bill C-18. Because this bill will receive second reading soon, it’s important that our government MPs and the Minister of Agriculture receive messages from us that this attack on our food supply will not be tolerated by Canadians. This requires action. Call your MP’s office; download a petition from nfu.ca and gather a minimum of 25 signatures to be presented to parliament; tell your friends. This is an issue for all of us who live in Canada, and wish to protect our and future generations right to eat wholesome food. We need to retain our autonomy to grow the foods that are good for us, not feed corporations that are willing to sacrifice our farmland ecology and diverse food supply. Kate Kechnie Carleton Place

COMMENTARY

Keep on fighting Editorial – The fight against cancer is as strong as ever if Relay for Life events in Mississippi Mills, Smiths Falls and Brockville are any indication. The Leeds, Grenville and Lanark branch of the Canadian Cancer Society wrapped up its Relay for Life activities for another year after the Mississippi Mills event June 6 at Gemmill Park in Almonte and the Brockville (Row’s Corner Fairground) and Smiths Falls (Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute) fundraisers June 13. Targets fell short, but the Mississippi Mills event raised more than $101,000 (with a goal of $135,000). Brockville brought in just over $102,000 (organizers hoped for $155,000), and Smiths Falls, with a goal of $95,000, raised $55,020. So goals weren’t met, but that doesn’t mean there should be a damper on these events. People still came together and raised funds for cancer research. And had fun doing it. That counts for something. In Smiths Falls, the Cancer Kicking Cousins team raised $8,427 on their own and Mississippi Mills teams PAR-TEE GIRLS and For the Love of Dido brought in $14,442 and $11,027, respectively. These are success stories that should be shared. The all-night walk in the fight to end cancer is something every person should experience in their lifetime. The sheer support as team members band together to walk a track into the wee hours of the morning, paired with the emotion of the survivor’s lap and luminary ceremony, are something to behold. Walking past those luminaries that line the track, each with a name of a loved one battling the vicious disease emblazoned on its side, is quite a sight to behold. It puts into perspective why people choose to Relay: it’s for their family members, mailman, teacher, neighbour or friend. It’s so that someday future generations won’t have to hear the words “you’ve got cancer.” We have to keep fighting.

Uncle Lou’s extravagant gift brings tears of joy Lifestyle – We could hear the horn long before we could see the car. It was a horn like no other heard in all of Renfrew County. We knew it was Uncle Lou! He usually let Mother know when he was coming. But sometimes, he just arrived, like it was an everyday occurrence to drive all the way from New York City just to visit us out on the farm. By the time his big black Buick pulled into the yard, driving down our long lane off the Northcote Side Road, Everett had run to open the gate wide, Audrey had replaced the Eaton’s catalogue for the orange wrapping papers in the outhouse, Mother had changed her apron to one spanking clean, and the rest of us circled the yard jumping up and down like jackrabbits. Even Father had stopped whatever he was doing in the barns, and joined us, ready to greet Uncle Lou and his black Buick with the big shiny brass American Eagle on the rad of the car.

Mother, as usual, whenever her brother came from New York, was crying. It took me a long time to learn the difference between crying because you were sad or crying because you were overcome with joy. Mother was overcome with joy! Uncle Lou pulled the car up close to the back door of the house, and when he got out, he swung Mother around like she was a toy doll, and then he pumped Father’s hand, and then grabbed each of us into a bear hug, one that took my breath away. Uncle Lou never came empty handed. And I tried not to make it look too obvious, but I couldn’t help looking into the back of the car, and there were boxes upon boxes, and in the front seat were brown paper bags. And I knew without a doubt, he had stopped in Renfrew and bought bags of oranges, bananas, grapes, and a bag of lemons for Mother...all Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@metroland.com 613-283-3182, ext. 104

things we would never dream of adding to our Saturday morning shopping list. It was like Christmas...right in the middle of summer! I couldn’t take my eyes off the back of the car. But Uncle Lou didn’t seem to be in any great hurry to unload his luggage or the boxes. He did reach in and take out the bags of fruit though, which caused Mother to shed another great pile of tears!

was made of gold. In fact, we all thought the big eagle on the rad was pure gold, until Uncle Lou corrected us and said it was brass. Emerson was rubbing his hand over it and making clucking sounds of approval. “Sure like that bird,” he kept saying. With his arm tight around Mother’s waist, Uncle Lou headed into the house, and ordered the boys to unload the car. First to come out were the many boxes, some with Macy’s department store printed on them, others just plain boxes tied with ribbons and string. Then came Uncle Lou’s luggage. Just looking at his suitcases, all made of smooth tan cowhide, confirmed in my young mind once again, that Uncle Lou had to be the richest man in all of New York City. Uncle Lou also had a good memory. Without even opening the boxes, he knew exactly which one was to go to each of us.

were yards of beautiful silk material, and a purse made of genuine leather in bright red! I couldn’t imagine such luxury! My box held a beautiful pair of white ankle stockings, with real lace around the tops, just like bad Marguirite wore to the Northcote School, and books...how I loved owning my very own books. Then, all that was left was a box which Uncle Lou kept apart from all the rest. He held it under his arm, and I wondered if he had brought something by mistake, because he didn’t look like he was in any hurry to hand it to someone. When we were finished with opening all the wonderful gifts, Uncle Lou finally handed Mother the box from under his arm. “It’s for the whole family,” he said, but Mother was to open it. Mother sat down on a kitchen chair with the box in her lap.

circled around her, and I could feel excitement right down to my toes. She seemed to take forever to untie the strings, and then she peered in the box, and was into the tears again. What she took out of the box almost caused the rest of us to cry along with her. There nestled in mounds of white tissue paper was a brass American eagle exactly like the one on Uncle Lou’s big black Buick! Only this one was on a pedestal. Emerson, of course, wanted to hold it. But Mother had a death grasp on it, and she kept rubbing it with the tail of her white apron. Where to put it was the next question. Emerson, never short on ideas thought it could be attached to the hood of the old Model T. The old Model T, missing a door, painted two different colours, and with a rad that had to be opened every few miles to pour in more water! And so it was decided. It would sit on top of the ice box. The new ice box that grandfather had bought from Barnett’s in Renfrew and now sat kitty-cornered

in the kitchen. Audrey was told to take off the geranium plant, give the top a good wipe with a clean dishcloth, and when all that was done, Mother got up and as if she was laying a cornerstone at an historic building, she put the American brass eagle in the very centre of the ice box. Not a word was spoken as we stood there like mutes, admiring this new and wonderful addition to our old log house. There was some discussion about its being put on the twig table in the parlour with the bible, but Audrey pointed out that the parlour was seldom used, and no visitor would ever see it. And so it was decided. The American Eagle, identical to the one on Uncle Lou’s Buick, would have its home on our oak ice box, where it would be the first thing anyone would notice, coming in the kitchen.

Initiatives such as the annual Take Back the Night Walk in Carleton Place in September, and November’s Violet Femmes fundraiser, have been successful for LCIH, as well as the establishment of the As Good As New Store in Carleton Place, a thrift outlet that raises funds for the organization. “We try to keep our hands in as many pies,” said Lee. Heather Whiting, LCIH’s volunteer and fundraising co-ordinator said she’s proud of what the organization has accomplished, but there’s still much to be done. She admitted that public awareness and

spreading their message, is key. “Women have come a long way, but there’s still a ways to go,” she said. “Without public awareness, we’ll never break the stigma of women feeling ashamed for being in a situation that is entirely not their fault.” According to Lee, legislators need to be pushed into doing more. “There needs to be a national action plan, to deal with national violence and Aboriginal violence,” she stated. “No one is actively doing anything about it...and it has to be a priority.” Over the years, Lee admitted that sometimes LCIH’s activities can be sensationalized or misrepresented, but she wants people to know one thing: “We’re still here, we’re still trying to honour women and children and trying to prevent more violence.”

Perth resident takes to the water again in annual Kayaking to Beat Cancer fundraiser By ASHLEY KULP

Bruce Raby with his Community Partnership Award from the Canadian Cancer Society.

akulp@perfprint.ca

Route change The recreational kayaker, who started kayaking in 2005, is changing things up a bit this year and making the route a bit more challenging. Instead of his traditional 110kilometre voyage from Perth to Ottawa, Raby will instead be leaving from Westport, kayaking to Ottawa, increasing the route to 135 kilometres. “It’s a bit different and makes it a little bit tougher for me because I have to paddle the Big Rideau (system),” he said. “…Westport seems like a nice place to start.” He likes to change the route to keep it fresh. Previously, he’s done four paddles from Kingston to Ottawa and two from Perth to Ottawa. “I make it longer and tougher as

I get older,” Raby joked. He’ll also have more company along the waves. Son Nicholas, who usually joins him for a portion of the trip each year, will be on hand again and so will Susan Johnston. She will be raising funds for the Heart & Stroke Foundation. She heard about Raby’s fundraiser as they are both members of the Lanark County Camera Club and asked if she could join in. “She’s a pretty avid paddler and is passionate about kayaking and photography and wanted to raise money for the Heart & Stroke Foundation,” Raby explained. “I figured we could support each other on the water. I’m looking forward to it.” “It’s nice to have someone paddle with you that’s passionate about the same types of things as you,” he added. He’s hoping to complete it within four days, beginning on Aug. 9, but has given himself until Aug. 14, if needed. “It all depends on the weather and how I feel, and more importantly, if there are good places to stop and have a shower,” he said. Raby plans to stop in Rideau Ferry, Merrickville and possibly Kars and Manotick. While he’s out on the water, he paddles up to the water’s edge to collect donations. Those experiences are ones he treasures the most. “Two or three years ago now, I paddled up and somebody near Kars reached in his pocket and pulled out a $100 bill. I offered him change, but he said ‘I’m pretty flush today, so here,’” Raby remembers. “It totally blew my mind. I can’t possibly forget that sort of thing.” “Then last year, I was paddling near Manotick and a woman was sitting by the bank at her property and I thought I’d stopped there before. I went up and didn’t have to say anything. She said she knew I would stop

again and handed me $20,” he continued. “Things like that always make me feel really good.” As for why he keeps doing it, his answer is simple. “There’s just something inside me that keeps driving me to do this,” he said. “This is just my way of trying to contribute something and say to other folks that I care.” Donations can also be made to Kayaking for Cancer online at http://convio. cancer.ca/goto/kayakingtobeatcancer.

Community – Each August, it’s become a tradition to see Bruce Raby kayaking along the Rideau Canal to raise funds for the Canadian Cancer Society and this summer will be no different. The Perth resident will embark on the voyage Aug. 9, which has raised close to $30,000 for the cancer society since he began. As with last year, he’s asking for 100 per cent of the proceeds to go directly to the Lanark, Leeds and Grenville unit of the society. “I’d like the donations to be used in our community to help individuals living with cancer right now,” Raby said. “It (funds raised) won’t help find a cure, but it goes a long way to help people dealing with cancer now. If I raise $4,000 to $5,000, then I’m happy to see it help people.” Raby is getting a head start on fundraising beginning Saturday, June 28 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Carleton Place Walmart, which will match all cash donations made instore on that day. “It’s great because they match dollar for dollar and last year, contributed around $600,” he stated. Next up will be Steve’s Independent Grocer in Carleton Place on July 5, and then for two days, July 12 and Aug. 3, Raby will be at Barnabe’s Independent Grocer in Perth. He is planning to be at all locations from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. “With four days of fundraising in stores, I’d like to raise $500 each day and I’m getting good at that,” he said. Those interested can also make a donation to Kayaking to Beat Cancer at the LCBO locations in Westport, Portland and Perth, where Raby will be participating in their community coin box program from June 22 to July 19. “I really appreciate the support of businesses and that they are letting me fundraise in their stores,” he said.

own personal page, and raise their own funds to go towards Kayaking to Beat Cancer. As an added incentive, the first 10 virtual paddlers who raise $400 will receive a free Kayaking to Beat Cancer T-shirt. To say thank you to those who give, anyone who makes a $20 donation will be entered into a draw for one of Raby’s prints. “I’ve been doing this (raffle) for a few years now and it’s an opportunity to share one of my images. People seem to really enjoy my prints, so I thought I’d keep doing it,” he stated. For more information on Kayaking to Beat Cancer, call Amanda Gifford, fundraising co-ordinator of the Lanark, Leeds and Grenville unit of the Canadian Cancer Society, at 613-267-1058.

Excellent author My interest in Hanover began when I discovered that one of my favourite authors, Bill Bryson, resided there with his family for a number of years after returning to his native United States (he’s a native of Des Moines, Iowa) following 20 years living and writing in Great Britain. Bryson is a newspaper writer/editor turned author which partly explains my interest in the man and his work. I won’t use a lot of space to promote one writer, not even one as good as Bry-

Lifestyle – With summer scheduled to officially arrive on Saturday what better time to write about some of the great adventures which are available to us in this part of North America. A few weeks ago I offered a few details about our spring driving vacation in New England and in particular how we managed to fool the weather prognosticators. The predicted showers were lingering nearby in many cases. We could see them in the distance. Yet they seemed to part and disappear whenever we arrived in a new community or district. In southeastern Vermont we stopped and walked around the picture perfect community of Windsor with its stately homes and which reminded Frank LeBlanc of his native Nova Scotia. As outlined in the earlier column we also crossed and photographed the WindsorCornish covered bridge. The 460-foot structure, which links Vermont and New Hampshire, is the longest two-span covered bridge in the world and the longest wooden bridge in the United States. After scoping out and taking pictures of a few other less spectacular covered bridges we criss-crossed the Connecticut River (the waterway divides Vermont and New Hampshire) before arriving in the busy town of Lebanon, NH where we made a brief pit stop. We had less than a week to complete the itinerary I had put together. Our second major destination on this particular day was the town of Hanover NH which is just north of Lebanon. I have wanted to visit Hanover for some time but on our previous visits we always had something else on the agenda. This time I wasn’t going to be denied! My wife and the LeBlancs didn’t know what to expect, I’m sure. But afterward all three said how much they had enjoyed the experience. There were three reasons I wanted to see Hanover, well four really. The town of 11,000 is the home of Dartmouth College one of the so-called Ivy League schools. The Ivy League is actually an athletic conference. But the eight member universities, all located in the American northeast, are among the most wellknown and prestigious in the US (the world for that matter). Among them are Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts; Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut; Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey and Columbia University in New York City. Dartmouth, with an undergraduate enrolment of just over 4,000 students, is the smallest of the eight schools. In truth, seeing Dartmouth College was my third reason for visiting Hanover. The fourth reason is because Brad Ausmus, the new manager of the Detroit Tigers, is a Dartmouth alumnus. As regular readers already know, the Tigers are my favourite Major League Baseball team.

Carleton Place teen travels to Florida for North American pageant

Community – Carleton Place teen, Haven Lamothe, knows the feeling of being a princess for a day is magical, and what better place to make this dream come true once again than near Cinderella’s castle? June 24 to 28 the 15-year-old local girl will be one of three Canadian competitors (and the only Ontario resident) to take part in the Miss Teen American Beauty pageant in Kissimmee, Florida. “It’s a completely different experience,” the local hopeful said. The upcoming competition will be held inside the Osceola High School in Kissimmee. America is known for its pageants with girls taking part in competitions before they can walk. The upcoming competition, hosted by Harrison Productions L.L.C., welcomes competitors from the age of toddlers to those in their golden years. Lamothe will be competing in the 15 to 19-yearold category and is expecting the competition to be stiff. “I’m just going to go out there and laugh and have fun,” she said. This step into an international competition came after a year of introduction into the pageant world. It all started in January 2013 when Lamothe attended the Miss Teen Ontario competition and came home with the Miss Teen Lanark County crown. That year of taking part in community events and reaching out to organizations struck a cord with Lamothe and she wanted to do more. This brought her to Miss Teen Canada competition last July where she cheered some of her new pageant friends on to victory and had a week to remember in Toronto. Following this she had more

friends forever. You always have that experience to share together.” In addition to new friends, the pageant circuit has taught Lamothe how to manage her time, speak well in public, and overall how to be a confident young lady. She jokes: “Pageants are the same as sports but you’re in better shoes.” The experience hasn’t been all fun and games. Lamothe said her desire to take part in such competitions has come with a lot of bullying and jealousy from her peers and some adults. It’s during these times that her pageant family comes in handy and encourages her to take the next step. The 15-year-old was invited to enter the Miss Teen American Beauty pageant by Miss Teen Canada director, Christi Woolard who has been following the Carleton Place girl’s progress through the last year. Lamothe said she was surprised to receive the invitation having not placed at nationals or regionals, but hopes her growth in

each pageant she competes in comes through. The Miss Teen American Beauty pageant focuses on assisting the girls in their personal development through beauty, style and cultural appreciation. The four-day competition is four full days of non-stop activity. This includes a glamour slumber party and a day at Downtown Disney amongst many hours of choreography rehearsals. Greco gym in Carleton Place is helping Lamothe become her fittest self by sponsoring her with access to their facilities until the competition. Regardless of the outcome this June, Lamothe plans to put away her fourinch heels for the time being and focus her efforts on gaining modeling experience and preparing for her senior years of high school (she is currently finishing up Grade 10 at Notre Dame Catholic High School in Carleton Place). She hopes to one day use her public speaking skills she learned in pageants in a public relations career.

Celebrating 20 years of music memories Community – The Carleton Place and District Community Band (above) held a special concert titled ‘Celebrate Musical Memories’ to mark its 20th anniversary on Saturday, May 31 at the Carleton Place Town Hall. The evening was hosted by Carleton Place Mayor Wendy LeBlanc. Special guests during the celebration included Danny Albert on violin and Max Donaldson (right) from Notre Dame Catholic High School.

is worth the trip in and of itself. We enjoyed lunch in a downtown establishment with plenty of Dartmouth sports memorabilia and a seafood chowder that had Frank, the Maritimer, smiling from ear-to-ear. He didn’t leave a drop of the New England specialty. Hiking the AT On the way out of the restaurant Wendy spotted the last piece of the puzzle. A sign telling us that we were walking on the Appalachian Trail. An easy part of the trail to be sure, but none-the-less we can now say we walked a small portion of the AT. Of course we have a huge distance to go to even approach the difficult odyssey which is hiking the AT. Bryson and his friend did well by the way. But they didn’t make the entire distance. Only a small number actually finish the rugged and difficult

“marathon” hike. About 2,000 set out to do it annually. Just one in four complete the journey. The sign in downtown Hanover directed us to a point on the edge of town where the “real AT” disappears into the bush and heads back into the mountains. The route is rough and is marked by white blazes on tree trunks and rocks. The formidable trail passes through 14 states. The vast majority is wilderness although it does pass through or near many centres. The AT also crosses main highways and rivers at various points. Hikers carry everything they need on their backs and as our struggles with a few bags of purchases in downtown Hanover demonstrated, we’re probably not about to set off along the most difficult section of the AT, which is the New England portion. I do hope to return and walk a longer part of it sometime though. The four of us enjoy walking and even an afternoon junket along a portion of

the AT would be something special to add to our list of life’s experiences. For the most ardent hikers and outdoor enthusiasts among my readership the AT is a challenge you should definitely consider. Anyone else who simply enjoys an interesting

travel experience should think about visiting the areas I have outlined this week. Not terribly far afield and well worth the effort! If you have a comment or question for Jeff Maguire he can be reached by email at: jeffrey. maguire@rogers.com.

Gaslight entertains at Full Circle Theatre in Perth. Above, Tegan Mackey, Kathie Reid, David Bird and James Benda capture the tension and excitement of the BarnDoor Productions play. The classic mystery-thriller runs Thursday through Sunday this week at Full Circle Theatre in Perth.

Gaslight a crowd pleasing thrill ride at Full Circle Theatre Arts – Patrick Hamilton’s mystery-thriller Gaslight has been around forever. It’s one of the true classics of the thriller genre and you’d think that every nuance would have been explored by now, but Perth’s BarnDoor Productions’ (BDP) new edition of the script brings new excitement and new thrills to the play and turns it into a fastpaced crowd-pleaser that is full of surprises and excitement. Opening night audience members called it “tightly directed and beautifully acted”, “an actor’s play that lets them play all of the nuances.” One even said “When intermission came, I didn’t want the act to end. I wanted more!” From set and lighting to casting, the show is receiving high praise from patrons. In particular, the quality of the performances and the depth of the talent on stage is being singled out. “From supporting roles to leads, they are all so strong!” said a patron. Veteran Kathie Reid as the dour cook Elizabeth and newcomer Emily Richardson as the saucy maid Nancy each have their moment to shine, whether it is Reid creating suspense by simply holding a plate (and her breath) while events happen offstage or Richardson setting her sights (and more) on the master of the house. They also provide strong support for the principals in several other scenes. James Benda is the master of the house, Jack Manningham and he alternates between quiet authority and terrifying

emotional heights at the twist of a word. This is possibly Benda’s best performance in a resume that includes BDP’s Sleuth and their all-time second-best seller Maggie’s Getting Married. David Bird was, at one time, a real-life London police officer, so it should be no surprise that he excels at playing a London police officer. Inspector Rough is the prototype for the on-stage British police inspector: he is funny, dramatic, driven and, when needed, physical. Rough is the catalyst that sets the plot in motion and Bird pushes it along with energy and authority. The whole play revolves around the character of Mrs. Manningham – Bella. Onstage for about 85 per cent of the show, Tegan Mackey swings between complacent housewife, frightened invalid and, finally, wild insanity without a break and makes it all believable and sympathetic. The final moments of Bella’s breakdown bring the audience to the edge of their seat with gasping anticipation. It’s a show full of visual excitement, as well. Set in Victorian London, in the era of gaslight and horse-drawn carriages, the play benefits from a set that is itself gathering high praise for authenticity and beauty. From genuine period furniture to flickering gaslamps, it’s a large part of the show, as is the accompanying soundtrack of music by Jean Sibelius, which puts the audience in the right frame of mind prior to the show and keeps them there throughout.

Along with that, the lighting is suitably patchy and flickering, reinforcing the mood of the play. The final element of the package is that the script, which has recently fallen into the public domain, has been trimmed from a lengthy and somewhat old-fashioned three-act format to a fastmoving two-act version. BDP has taken some 39 pages (about one-third) out of the original script, leaving a play that is lean and exciting from start to finish. The production lasts just over one hour and 45 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission, but in that time, audiences are telling producers that they are treated to some great theatre, superb performances and a tight, highly entertaining play. It’s best summed up in the words of the New Yorker Magazine’s review of the 1938 Broadway production: “I can give you only one clue – GO SEE IT!” Gaslight concludes its run with performances June 19, 20 and 21 at 7:30 p.m. and June 22 at 1:30 p.m., at the Full Circle Theatre, 26 Craig Street, Perth, near Last Duel Park. Note the special summer curtain times, one-half hour ahead of BDP’s usual. Tickets are $22 at the door; $20 reserved; $10 for students. Simply call 613-267-1884 for reservation. No credit cards required; cash at the performance is requested. For more information, go to www.barndoorproductions. ca. Submitted by BarnDoor Productions. THE EMC - 24 - Thursday, June 19, 2014

kayak program and annual summer walks, and the club’s monthly natural history lectures will resume with a new series in September. Please see our new website, www.mvfn.ca, for details of these upcoming activities and for membership information. The new site took roughly one year and hundreds of hours to define, design and have implemented by MVFN’s web team along with Chris Bruce, a local naturalist and web designer. The new site makes it much easier to see what activities MVFN is involved in and to find information in a user friendly manner. Submitted by the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists.

Host families needed for students

Community – In addition to the two groups of Japanese teens heading to the area August 2014, Muskoka Language International is pleased to have this year 10month (school-term) placements arriving September 2014. The first group consists of 14year-old girls from Japan’s Denenchofu School. Their main goal is to immerse themselves in Canadian family life and practice their English. The group is due to arrive on July 29 and will stay until Aug. 11. The second group is a mix of 17 and 18-year-old boys and girls from Ritsumeikan Uji School, in Japan. They will spend their weekdays taking English as a Second Language program at Carleton Place High School and spend time with their host families on evenings and weekends. Local teachers will instruct the students while they are at school. This group will arrive

Aug. 15 and leave Aug. 30. The third group is arriving Sept. 1. These students attend school throughout the Upper Canada District School board and home stays are required from September 2014 to June 30, 2015. That’s where area families come in. While the younger group (Denenchofu School) will be with their host families throughout the day, older students (Ritsumeikan Uji) spend much of their time at school in Carleton Place. They are at school during the day so it’s a little less intense for families. The school year students will immerse themselves in our culture attending local high schools. No matter which age group a family decides to host, the experience is well worth it, In order to qualify to host, families must be able to provide the student with his or her own room and anyone over the age of

19 must pass a vulnerable sector background check. Organizers also hope to match students with his or her ideal family, which means the more family members, the better, especially if there are teens around the same age, Buses are provided for the older students to and from Carleton Place High School daily with buses from Perth, Almonte and Smiths Falls. Students residing in Carleton Place might require a drive to or from school, or they can walk if they are close enough to the school. The students who are attending school for the school year will either be bused or if close enough, may walk to school. All host families are compensated. Anyone looking for more information can call JoAnn Campbell or Katrina Hodge at 613-264-8843/613-366-5512, or email jcampbell@mliesl.com or khodge@mliesl.com.

The Canadian Co-operative Woolgrowers, located at 142 Franktown Road, grades and markets close to three million pounds of raw wool each year. To mark the town’s woolly past, the BIA and the Woolgrowers will come together on Saturday, June 21 to host the Lambs Down Park Festival. The BIA and the Wool Growers are hoping to bring awareness to the public about the great heritage attraction we have in Carleton Place. The festival will run from 10am until 3pm on the Wool Growers property. With the festival focusing on our woolly past, there will be all kinds of activities that will help build the fibre of participants including hands-on demonstrations of sheep herding involving working sheep dogs, sheep shearing and the spinning of wool. There will also be tours of the Woolgrowers facilities. Jack Denovan will be the Master of Ceremonies, providing music and entertainment all day. There will be local fresh produce, jams, lamb, baked goods, painting, sculptures, jewellery and so much more! For the young and the young at heart there will be a petting zoo and pony rides, balloon art, face painting and interactive gymnastics activity. You can relax at a picnic table, enjoying a bite to eat, having a drink and taking in great local entertainment. Two fundraising walks and BBQ in support of LAWS and People First. With the Woolgrowers housed in what was originally the round house and machine shops for the Canadian Pacific Railway, there will be a great display set up on Carleton Place’s railway past. The Lambs Down Park Festival was created by the BIA with the goal of bringing together friends and family, so that we can enjoy and learn about the heritage of the community. The BIA has had great success with family events and is inviting everyone to come out and enjoy the displays, lunch and entertainment. Further details on the festival can be obtained by contacting the BIA at 613-257-8049 or by e-mail at cmcormond@carletonplace.ca.

Lifestyle – The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) held their annual general meeting (AGM) at the Almonte Civitan Community Hall on May 15 followed by their Spring Gathering event which had record-setting attendance. The AGM was conducted by Ken Allison, president of MVFN, with attendance by the board and club members. Ken provided the membership with an overview of the organizations activities and finances over the last year. This is the club’s 26th year as an organization and throughout this time it has been very active promoting the understanding and awareness of the natural world in our community, with its popular natural history lectures series, canoe, hiking and birding outings, environmental programs for children and youth, and strong support for local conservation issues. The treasurer, Robert McCook, presented the finances which show a wellmanaged club which can continue to be very active. Ken introduced each of the board members for the coming year, and of special note is that Cliff Bennett, one of the founding members, will once again be president. The 2014/15 board members can found on MVFN’s new website (www.MVFN.ca) under the ABOUT MVFN menu. The AGM was followed by the Spring Gathering event which started with a reception, where old friends and acquaintances shared drinks and chatted; many visited the Young Naturalists exhibit and purchased raffle tickets in support of the MVFN bursary fund, which supports young people going into the environment education field. Presentation of the 2014 MVFN Champion for Nature also took place. Botanist David White was presented with the award for his work in establishing a Lanark Flora which is available online for public use and furthers plant and habitat conservation in our region. The Almonte Civitan Club did an excellent job of providing top notch service and a very tasty meal. A special thanks to all the volunteers, especially Cliff Bennett, who organized the team and co-ordinated the event. The master of ceremonies, Iain Wilkes, MVFN’s publicity chair and well-


Find out why The Butler Did It at Studio Theatre this July Arts – It might seem unfair to assume that the poor butler is always the culprit in the ‘30sstyle murder mysteries we love so much. But in the play-within-a-play comedy, The Butler Did It, premiering soon at the Studio Theatre, the butler is the obvious suspect. Why? Because all the characters have the same last name – Butler! Described as the off-Broadway equivalent of Deathtrap, The Butler Did It, written by Walter Marks and Peter Marks, is a diabolically clever comedy thriller that mixes murder and mayhem, laughter and chills in the glittering world of the theatre. The scene is set where Anthony J. Lefcourt, writer and director, is rehearsing his newest work, a classic “whodunit” (in which, as mentioned, all the characters either play a butler or are named Butler) hoping to regain his former glory as a playwright. Desperately eager to spur his cast on to great performances, he “stages” the murder of one of the actresses, after which the plot begins to twist and turn with such dazzling ingenuity – and hilarity – that soon actors and audience alike have lost track of what is real and what is make-believe. Finally, a surprise ending sets matters straight in a most bizarre and ironic way. It’s a “genuinely amusing burlesque of those good old ‘30s movie thrillers in which the killer is unmasked in the final moments” (NY Daily News) and just the sort of light-hearted fare that makes for great summer entertainment. The Butler Did It is directed by theatre veteran Patricia Parry (who helmed last De-

cember’s successful The Wonderful Story of Mother Goose) and stars Paul Roach as the director, Anthony J. Lefcourt; Norman MacDonnell as Mr. Butler (and Robert Lattimore); Julie Heney as Mrs. Butler (and Angela Simpson); Satinka Schilling as Vickie Butler (and Claudia Barnes); Charles Henderson as Aldo, the Butler, (and Michael Severino); and Garry Welch as Detective Mumford (and Sam Farber). The show premieres Thursday, July 3 and continues July 4, 5, 11 and 12 at 8 p.m., and July 6 and 13 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $22 (cash; exact change if possible) at The Book Nook (60 Gore Street E.), and at Tickets Please (39 Foster Street), 613-485-6434, www.ticketsplease.ca, which accepts credit card and phone orders (a convenience fee applies). Tickets at the door are $24, and students with ID pay just $10 at the door on show night. The laughs continue in August with the Studio Theatre’s second great summer show, Oscar Wilde’s classic social satire, An Ideal Husband, premiering Aug. 14 for eight performances. And when you purchase tickets for both The Butler Did It and An Ideal Husband you’ll pay just $40 for both shows. For details, dates and show times be sure to visit studiotheatreperth.com. Remember, Perth’s Studio Theatre is air conditioned and fully accessible, thanks to our brand new elevator. Enjoy a show (or two!) at the beautifully renovated Studio Theatre, and see how good community theatre can be! Submitted by the Studio Theatre.

Roam the countryside at Burnstown Heritage House & Garden Tour June 28 Community – Are you interested in history or homes or gardens? Do you want to spend an interesting afternoon roaming the countryside? Then do not miss the second Burnstown Heritage House & Garden Tour on Saturday, June 28 from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. There are seven locations in and around Burnstown to visit: four gardens, three heritage homes, school, church, radio station, and labyrinth. Included in the $25 price is a strawberry social at the Burnstown United Church. Your passport provides a map and a short description of each location. The order of viewing is up to you – start and finish anywhere along the route. There are two locations in Burnstown, besides the church. One is the 1889 one-room school house. Today it is the Neat, with its café and roast house. Lately, it has become known for its unique concert venue. There is even a concert scheduled for the evening of the tour (June 28) at 8 p.m. if you wish to purchase tickets (www.neatfood. com). The tour includes the garden and perhaps you will also see some freetrade coffee being roasted. The second location is one of the village’s oldest buildings. It was built around 1850 as the home of businessman, George Rochester. He was the owner of the Rochester Mill and other businesses in Burnstown. The building was later used as a cheese factory before reverting to a home. Today it is the location of Prime Valley Realty and a gift shop, Rustic Remnants. The tour includes the basement to show the timbers and floorboards. While there, listen to tales of rescues and drownings on the Madawaska. Heading towards White Lake, are the gardens of Mary and Peter Stanton. These gardens were planted in

The vision was to use the salvaged perennials and incorporate new and unusual plants. Goals were four-season interest, visual impact and an established look in year three. The rear garden layout is reminiscent of a formal French country courtyard. The front garden is more informal and relaxed. Back by popular demand is the nearby farm of Joan & Ross Headrick. You can visit a log cabin from the early 1800s, lovingly furnished to that time period. Check out the handmade quilt and interesting gadgets from pioneer times.

With sandy, dry soil, it was originally designed in a hot, dry, Mediterranean style. Now the garden is transitioning into a partial shade garden, featuring hostas, daylilies and perennials. There is also a small goldfish pond. While there, enjoy the owners’ artistic works. Valerie’s botanical paintings are often of the plants in the garden. John’s work is mainly architectural, but he also enjoys painting small acrylics of their garden. Valley Heritage Radio Station is also included in the tour.

The station uses turntables and tape decks, as well as modern equipment. The actual building was once the Jack Russell Drive-In Theatre. There may be a live band on

Carleton Ford, St. James Anglican Church partner to donate car to Haiti orphanage By TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca

News – Four years ago on Jan. 12 an earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter magnitude scale struck Haiti, killing thousands and causing unspeakable devastation. Many countries responded to appeals for humanitarian aid. Since 2010 St. James Anglican Church in Carleton Place has supported two orphanages in Haiti, with parishioners Ronette Vines and Jennie Blackburn coordinating funds and supplies for them. Almonte resident Dieudonne Batraville is the founder of Heart Plus Centre Vie, a home for orphaned children in SaintMarc, a coastal port town in western Haiti. She has a background in international community development. “Dieudonne lives part of the year in Almonte, when she is not working to put supplies together or find funds to support the children,” Vines explained. Heart Plus Centre Vie started as a refugee camp for displaced persons, victims of the Haiti earthquake, sheltering about 60

people: amputees, adults and children from Port au Prince and Leogane. In the later part of 2010 the wounded began to heal, and some made the decision to leave the area. Unfortunately, many left their children behind. Too, a number of these children’s parents are deceased. Moreover, a few youngsters have family members alive; however, they are not in any condition to care for them. Heart Plus Centre Vie guarantees a future for its children. St. James Anglican Church has a good relationship with Batraville, and she has regularly visited the parish. “Recently I discovered Dieudonne was having great difficulties with her vehicle,” Vines said, “so I started making inquiries here (in Carleton Place) to find a used car to ship to her.” “Her car kept breaking down, which was so frustrating for her,” Vines continued.

an extra set of tires. “It takes approximately two weeks for the vehicle to get there,” Vines said.

Parishioner John Chamney is driving the vehicle to Montreal, the first leg of the journey. Asked why he got involved, Pitre responded: “Because I was asked.” Initially Andrew inquired about the possibility of Ford Canada making the donation however, Pitre already knew what the answer would be. Plus, as a dealer, this is something he could do. He and wife Glenda live their lives based on the teachings of Romans 12:39. “We should all contribute, any way we can,” Pitre said. The fees to ship and import the black, loaded Ford Escape totalled $2,000, which was raised by way of the church’s congregation. Vines stood up and asked her fellow parishioners to help, and soon the money was in hand. “They are a great group, when there is a great cause,” she said. Batraville is overwhelmed to be getting the new vehicle. “We are all so excited and grateful to be able to help,” Vines said, “and needless to say, Dieudonne over the moon.” The parishioners of St. James Anglican Church are thankful to Pitre and his staff for their generosity and assistance.

Officers checked the river shoreline in the area of Mill Street and Princess Street and observed a female in neck high water clinging onto branches of a bush on the shoreline. She appeared to be weak, cold and unable to speak. Two officers were able to physically pull the female from the

swift moving water. The 55-year-old Carleton Place woman was taken to hospital by ambulance with minor injuries and further assessment. Investigators would like to speak to the citizen who alerted officers. Please contact the OPP at 1-888-310-1122.

“This is an option that had been looked at initially,” director of public works Dave Young said, “and it’s been around a long time.” The PTS is a long-term solution. SNC-Lavalin estimates the PTS would be required to operate for at least 20 years to remediate the PCE DNAPL. Costing A rough order of magnitude (ROM) estimate is an approximation of a project’s level of effort and cost to complete. The rough ROM estimate for designing, permitting and constructing the PTS is $300,000, and the annual operating and maintenance cost is approximately $65,000 per year. “This is an old tried and true method,” Knowles reiterated.

“It takes a long time, and it’s not particularly disruptive.” “If this is a traditional approach, why didn’t we make this decision five or six years ago, which is how long we’ve been looking at this?” Antonakos asked. The councillor initially favoured digging it (PCE DNAPL) up and getting it out. “Then we went with option two, which was a little less expensive, and then it turned out to be more expensive,” he continued. “Now we are back to this common approach.” The two remediation techniques previously reviewed: excavation and electrical resistance heating (ERH). Knowles explained the difficulty with both of the approaches was cost (over $2 million), “and the contractors were not offering

a guarantee.” “A combination of very high costs and a lack of certainty that they would work really steered us away from those options,” he continued. When asked by mayor Wendy LeBlanc if the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) was consulted regarding the remediation method, Knowles said public works development coordinator Wayne Fraser “verbally discussed it with the MOE.” “The MOE is never going to bless it (method),” he continued. “If it doesn’t work, it’s not their problem.” However, the CAO stressed the MOE is not opposed. “They will tell you when you are not doing something to their liking, but they are not going to tell us it’s not to their liking,” Knowles said. 310 Port Elmsley Road, RR # 5 Perth, ON K7H 3C7 Tel: 613-267-6500 Fax: 613-267-2083 Email: admin@dnetownship.ca

PC Jack MacLaren re-elected in Carleton-Mississippi Mills By JESSICA CUNHA and ADAM KVETON

News – It was no contest in Carleton-Mississippi Mills, as Jack MacLaren handily won the riding with 47 per cent of the vote in the June 12 provincial election. But the win didn’t make it any easier for the Progressive Conservative incumbent to swallow a Liberal majority in Ontario. “Ontario could have been good again, but the voters of Ontario listened to the unions, they listened to the NDP and the Liberals tell lies about our programs and our policies that would have created the wealth, would have reduced the spending,” he said during his speech at his election night party at Graffiti’s Italian Eatery at the Holiday Inn and Suites Kanata. “There was light at the end of the tunnel,” he said to the roomful of supporters. “We were going to do things that would have created jobs, we were going to do things that would have balanced the budget in two years, and we were going to do it without firing people.” Although Ontarians in most other ridings didn’t seem to share MacLaren’s views on the PCs, the incumbent easily took the Carleton-Mississippi Mills riding garnering 30,501 votes, with his closest competitor, Liberal Rosalyn Stevens, receiving 20,472. John Hansen of the NDP earned 8,748 votes, while Green Party candidate Andrew West obtained 4,614. Confident with how things

PC incumbent Jack MacLaren and wife Janet address a crowd of people during his election night party at Graffiti’s Italian Eatery at the Holiday Inn and Suites Kanata. were progressing in his riding, MacLaren sent $25,000 to three other PC candidates, including $10,000 to Matt Young, who campaigned in Ottawa South, $5,000 to Andrew Lister in Ottawa-Orléans and another $10,000 to Kevin Gaudet in PickeringScarborough East. MacLaren also had people knocking on doors for Young. All three PCs lost to their Liberal opponents. Province-wide, the Liberals won a majority with 58 seats, with the PCs dropping to 28 and the NDP picking up the other 21. As numerous unions came out against the PCs before the elec-

tion, MacLaren visited three local firehouses, speaking about the Conservatives’ plan to help balance the budget. He said the 100,000 jobs Tim Hudak said he would cut would come from attrition in administrative positions within the government. MacLaren added that 50,000 people leave the government through attrition every year – which would have seen the PCs goal reached within two years. “A man with a job will pay taxes. A man with no job pays no taxes,” he explained before the election results rolled in. “We’re not firing anybody. We need nurs-

es, firemen, policemen, teachers. We’ll replace them. They’re our front-line troops.” Sarah Seang, 22, just graduated with a bachelor in education from the University of Ottawa. She hopes to get a job teaching high school. Seang was at MacLaren’s election night party to support the PCs and her fiancé, who helped MacLaren’s campaign. She said she felt the PCs had a better plan for the province than any of the

other parties. “I feel like the amount of debt we’ve been accumulating will keep going up if we continue with the Liberals,” she said. She said the seniority system currently used to fill teachers’ positions – which hinders new teachers from being hired – would have been abolished under the PCs. “Tim Hudak wants to change the system,” Seang said, adding principals would have more authority to choose the teachers they wanted in their schools. As the results tricked in, the mood at MacLaren’s election party became sombre. Although everyone gathered was happy with his triumph, many were stunned as a Liberal majority was announced. “I just don’t think we can live beyond our means,” said Tim Broschuk, of Kanata. “If that’s what people voted for, that’s what they want and that’s how it is.” MacLaren, who was accompanied by his wife, Janet, and daughter, Alexis, told his supporters that the Conservatives will be ready to rebuild the province after four more years of Liberal government. “Things will get worse because we’re going to have four years of Liberals who will spend our money, reduce our prosperity. As Conservatives, it gives us

time to rebuild,” he said. “We will be tougher because it’s going to be four more years of Liberal persecution of the taxpayer of Ontario. And one day, in four years time, we will be ready to make Ontario strong again with strong leadership.” MacLaren first won the riding in 2011 by 50 per cent of the vote – after scoring a surprise upset in the PC nomination process against then-incumbent Norm Sterling, who had served 34 years at Queen’s Park. The West Carleton farmer hails from MacLaren’s Landing in West Carleton on the Ottawa River where his family has lived since 1826. MacLaren is the former president of the Ontario Landowners Association and holds a degree in civil engineering from Queen’s University. Liberal majority Liberal candidate for Carleton-Mississippi Mills, Rosalyn Stevens, conceded defeat in the riding, but rejoiced over her party winning a majority government. The Stevens camp was boisterous and cheery as the Liberal candidate entered Papa Sam’s Restaurant in north Kanata. Stevens said she had no illusions heading into the election. “I’ve grown up in this riding. I know the history. I knew that it See ELECTION page A/CP12

It grades and markets nearly three million pounds of raw wool every 12 months. “The Wool Growers is a rich part of our history, unique to the community,” BIA project manager Cathie McOrmond said. The BIA has a great partnership with the Wool Growers, and general manager Eric Bjergso and staff have been amazing with their support, McOrmond added. Admission to the Lambs Down Park Festival is free. Well-known local resident and musician Jack Denovan returns as the event’s master of ceremonies, and there will be music all day long – filtered throughout the festival area. With wool being the fibre on which the festival is based, the day offers hands-on demonstrations: sheep herding with Werner Reitboeck, sheep shearing by Ross Creighton and the spinning of wool.

“We also have woodturning demonstrations this year,” McOrmond said. Yet again, informative tours of the Wool Growers will be conducted, and the Real Wool Boutique will be open for business. The retail outlet, situated between the main wool business warehouse and the Livestock Supply store, specializes in wool clothing, bedding and sheepskin products, as well as high quality yarns and knitting supplies. In the region of 50 vendors have registered, which is “slightly more than 2013’s festival,” McOrmond said. She noted a number of local organizations and businesses will have display booths: Carleton Place and Beckwith Heritage Museum, Tania’s Dance Studio, Natural Pet Foods, The Floral Boutique, CP Gymnastics Centre, Surrounding Memories, Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS) for example. “The Carleton Place and Beckwith Heritage Museum people will be dressed in period costume,” McOrmond said, “and the 4-H group will host a craft table for kids.” With the Woolgrowers housed in what was originally the roundhouse and machine shops for the Canadian Pacific Railway, there will be a great display set up on Carleton Place’s railway past. For the children, activities include a petting zoo, pony rides, animal balloons and face painting. Once again, People First of Lanark County (PFoLC) will host a fundraising barbecue, selling hamburgers, chicken burgers

and drinks. The barbecue follows the organization’s eighth annual walkathon (see separate story), which takes place in the morning. The walk leaves from the historic Moore House on Bridge Street. PFoLC advocates for people who have been labelled. What’s more, the 2014 Walk for LAWS takes place on Saturday at the Lambs Down Park Festival. Registration starts at 10 a.m. One hundred per cent of the money raised from this event goes straight to the Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS). “The walk begins and ends at the Wool Growers’,” McOrmond said, “and LAWS will also be hosting a barbecue afterward.” Other goodies available for purchase at the festival include cotton candy, cold drinks and lamb appetizers, and a chip wagon will be onsite. There will also be local fresh produce, McOrmond said. Speaking of fresh produce, there will be free wagon rides between the Carleton Place Farmers’ Market (7 Beckwith St.) and Lambs Down Park Festival. Visitors can relax at a shaded picnic table, enjoy a bite to eat, have a drink and take in the wonderful history of the Wool Growers, McOrmond said. A number of festival-goers come from outside Carleton Place. “The festival is a celebration of family fun, entertainment, great food, heritage and community spirit,” McOrmond said. For additional information, contact the BIA at 613-257-8049 or cmcormond@carletonplace. ca.

Chef Derek Pennell, winner of Chopped Canada and former executive chef at Stone Cellar Restaurant, was at the Carleton Place Farmers’ Market on Saturday, June 14, highlighting his signature sauces.

Community – The 2014 People First of Lanark County (PFoLC) walkathon is a fun and healthy way for the community to come together for a good cause. The rain or shine march, now in its eighth year, is held in conjunction with the Carleton Place Business Improvement Association’s (BIA) Lambs Down Park Festival (see separate story) on Saturday, June 21. “People First of Lanark County members are looking forward to walking with pride,” president Manon Lépine said, “and we are always happy to let the community know who we are.” Registration begins at 9:30 a.m. at the Moore House on Bridge Street, located across from the Carleton Place Town Hall. The walk starts at 10 a.m., and following opening remarks, participants will make their way down Bridge Street to the grounds of Canadian Cooperative Wool Growers Limited on Franktown Rd. Walkathon pledge forms can be picked up at the PFoLC office, situated on the property of the Free Methodist Church at 355 Moffatt St. in Carleton Place. “Just give us a call and then stop on by to pick one up,” Lépine said. “If there is no answer, please leave a message. We will call you back.”

Once again PFoLC will host a barbecue at the Lambs Down Park Festival, selling hamburgers, chicken burgers and drinks. Other offerings include a 50/50 draw and prize raffle. At last week’s council meeting in Carleton Place (June 10), mayor Wendy LeBlanc declared June 21 People First Day. “I am very pleased,” Lépine said. Proceeds from the walkathon and barbecue help raise awareness and educate people about PFoLC, as well as provide support for the organization’s day-today operations and many community events. The advocacy organization – the voice for people who have been labelled – does not receive financial support from the provincial or federal governments. “Last year a total of $1,300 was raised between the barbecue and walkathon,” past PFoLC president and executive director Kory Earle stressed, and “all funds raised by People First stay in Lanark County.” Area politicians have been invited to participate in Saturday’s walkathon. The vision of PFoLC is of a movement of people who want all citizens to live equally in the community. “Without the community’s generosity, we would never have been able to keep the office doors open for eight years,” Earle said. For more information about PFoLC or the walkathon, call 613-257-7111.

Almonte Celtfest going green with new environmentally friendly project Community – The water will be flowing at Almonte Celtfest as festival-goers can reduce and reuse while getting a cool drink with reusable water bottles and water stations onsite. Almonte Celtfest is preparing for a foot-stomping good time at Gemmill Park July 4, 5 and 6, and with all the fun people always get hot and need a drink of water. The last few years the festival has had donated disposable water bottles. “The plastic bottles are so wasteful,” said Gavin Donnelly, committee member and site manager, who has been with the event since it started 18 years ago. “People are generally more conscious about being green and Celtfest is also conscious about this and we are taking the lead.” “We have had a lot of bottles donated over the past few years, which is wonderful,” added Brenda Cain-Kealey, Celtfest chair. “But there is so much waste at the end of the festival.” Donnelly had received a few suggestions that they should have water bottles onsite, so he and Cain-Kealey put their heads together and decided to look for someone to donate them. The pair turned to the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) in Almonte and Cindy Hobbs, its branch

Celtfest will be embracing the green wave this summer with donated water bottles and water refill stations. Pictured are Gavin Donnelly, Celtfest chair committee member and site manager, left; Andrew Trader, senior operations manager at Ontario Clean Water Agency; Liam the Leprechaun; Cindy Hobbs, mutual funds representative from the Royal Bank of Canada; and Brenda Cain-Kealey, Celtfest chair. manager. RBC launched the Blue Water Project in 2007, which is a 10-year global charitable commitment of $50 million in support of watershed protection and access to clean drinking water. As part of that project, RBC is donating 500 water bottles and 250 will be handed out on the Saturday and the remaining 250 on the Sunday of the festival. “We are doing things very local and are working to do our part,” said Hobbs. “It was a perfect fit and we couldn’t say no.”

THE TOWNSHIP OF LANARK HIGHLANDS

With the Blue Water Project, RBC has also been involved with raising money for the Pakenham Five Span Bridge lookout as well. Cain-Kealey thinks it is wonderful that RBC is donating the bottles. “Almonte Celtfest is a great family event that has come to be well recognized in our community and beyond, we felt it was important for us to take a lead in helping to clean up the environment,” said Cain-Kealey. “The committee had the idea but it’s really the water

sponsors and RBC that helped to make it happen.” Organizers now had water bottles, but no water, so Donnelly turned to Andrew Trader, senior operations manager at Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA). OCWA is the largest provider of water and wastewater services in Canada and will be onsite with a water refilling station. “We will have a dispensing unit that will count the number of bottles saved, have our logo on it and it will be eight feet tall,” explained Trader. “The Town (of Mississippi Mills) is on board too and we will be hooking it up to the municipal arena. It’s a local event and a way to promote the municipal system.” OCWA is donating 50 water bottles to hand out to attendees and Lanark Pure will also have five water stations at Celtfest as well. The festival committee is encouraging people to bring their own water bottles to refill at the event and hopes they can keep the program going in the future. Almonte Celtfest is one of the top Celtic weekend events in Canada and its mission is to celebrate and promote the Celtic heritage of the Ottawa Valley, share historical traditions and showcase local performers.

Liberals get last-minute reprieve

Editorial – Just as with the recentlywrapped up NBA championships and the NHL Stanley Cup race, in politics too, a win is a win. The final Ontario provincial election results saw the Liberals win a surprising majority government with 58 seats, with 28 for the Progressive Conservatives, and 21 for the New Democratic Party. With 54 seats needed to form a majority government, the Liberals have only a four-seat majority. Not precarious, but not quite the landslide they had in 2003, or the comfortable majority of 2007. All it is, is an improvement of five seats from 2011. What has everyone crowing is that the Liberals defied everyone’s expectations – including their own. In the days leading up to the election, even the Grits were playing down expectations of anything better than another minority. What likely happened here is that enough New Democrats were spooked by the prospect of Premier Tim Hudak that they raced to the Liberal camp. Just like Paul Martin did in 2004, the fear tactics

may not make for history-book making, or statesman-like politics, but they can win elections. While personally affable, one-on-one, Tim Hudak just did not connect with voters. They are the very same voters who recognized the need for fiscal sanity – but also feared a return to the mean-spirited Common Sense Revolution days, which appear to have been repudiated now, with much of the same Mike Harris crowd from 1995 and 1999 having run this latest campaign into the ground. Looking locally, at Lanark, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington, having three of the same four candidates who ran in 2011 provides an interesting snapshot of voting trends, even in this, admittedly, rather Tory riding. Incumbent PC MPP Randy Hillier saw his vote dip 6.49 per cent, while Liberal Bill MacDonald’s vote went up 1.76 per cent, as did New Democrat David Parkhill, whose vote actually rose higher, up 2.15 per cent. Even the Greens, with new candidate Cam Mather, were up,

2.58 per cent. Looking about locally, as the party once billed as the Big Blue Machine licks its wounds, we see two potential leadership contenders from this area. One is longtime Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod – though fiercely partisan, she is also unambiguous and certainly can connect with voters, for good or ill. It would be interesting to have all three provincial political parties led by women. But apart from that bit of trivia, MacLeod could be crucial in helping drive inroads in suburban areas of this province – like Toronto’s 905 commuter belt, or suburban Ottawa – which, as Mike Harris can attest to, is key to winning a majority government for the PCs. Closer to our area, in an interview with The Kemptville Advance, Leeds-Grenville MPP Steve Clark refused to be drawn in on what he thought a new leader would look like. If he won’t say it, we will: Clark would be a very strong candidate to replace Hudak. As the former mayor of Brockville, he is able to represent both urban and rural interests. He also ‘gets

it’ when it comes to the problems facing municipalities, having sat in the hot seat himself. A fiscal conservative, having been elected in 2010, seven years after the Harris-Eves years, like MacLeod, he does not carry the baggage of those governments. Knowing the value of a balanced budget, Clark also does not appear to be a graduate of the ‘slash-and-burn’ school of economics. We certainly wish Wynne all the best in trying to right the ship. With a majority, she should be able to get done what needs to get done, without any of the minority government excuses. We are also glad that, hopefully, even as the OPP goes about their work, that this renewed mandate will finally put us closer to the end of the gas plant saga and will have taught the Liberals a lesson. Because if they fail to learn from the lessons of the last three years – lies, scandals, alienating rural people – their reprieve will be short-lived, and they cannot count on their opposition being as lackluster next time.

Strictly for the Birds

French Line bridge circus in Lanark Highlands continues DEAR EDITOR: One of the reasons usually given for the high taxes in Lanark Highlands is the number of kilometres of roads (530) and the number of bridges (14) that must be maintained. It is always such a relief when a grant is received to improve a road or bridge so that problem is taken care of at least for a number of years. It is therefore so disappointing when a project receives funding and it is mishandled. I am referring to the French Line bridge replacement. First, an engineering firm – GD Jewell – a company that for whatever reason appears to have gained favour with staff and the majority of council was given the opportunity without any competition to make the application for the funds for the project. Jewell’s estimate of the total cost of the project was 1.2 million and a grant for 90 per cent of that amount was approved. Next, when proposals were received for engineering services, council was presented with reports containing erroneous and misleading statements in

order to justify awarding the contract to Jewell despite the fact their bid was 78 per cent higher than the lowest bid. The contract was eventually awarded to Jewell by a majority of council. So now the tenders for construction of the bridge have been received. The total cost of the lowest bid for construction plus the engineering costs is $2.335 million – nearly double (95 per cent over) the estimate. Jewell gave some reasons for the increase – the poor soil condition discovered would require piled foundations, the heavy demand for the girders has driven the price up and the lack of competition due to the number of bridge projects in the province. But to miss by 95 per cent! The lowest proposal for engineering services that was rejected by council offered many options such as reinforcement of the existing foundations that would have substantially reduced the cost. One of the reasons given for rejecting the lowest bid was that the difference would cost the township ‘only 10-cent dollars’ since the province was paying

90 per cent. Now Highlands taxpayers will pay 100 per cent of the difference. Three options are now being pursued: 1) an attempt to determine if the soil under the existing foundations is sufficient to allow them to be retained, 2) retendering the project early in 2015, and 3) diverting the $1.2 million to another project (Galbraith bridge) with the hope that funds can be obtained for the French Line bridge under a future program. The last option would be a gamble as it was stated the French Line bridge will only last another two to three years. Council will now proceed with a request for proposal for the engineering services for the Galbraith bridge. It will be interesting to see if given the circumstances the same effort is made to award the contract to GD Jewell again. The way this project has been handled shows a lack of leadership and accountability and is, in my opinion, not the way our township should be run. John Hall Lanark Highlands

At Taylor Lake, no Common Loons were seen as two boats were out fishing nearby. Most of the birding was by ear. Three Warbler species were heard: Yellow, Ovenbird, and a Black-throated Green. A brown cottontail hopped across the road. On the way home, a Black and White Warbler was heard along Wolf Grove Road.

In the Prospect area on Purdy Road, Shaun Cavanagh called June 10 to report two Whip-poor-wills calling near his home. He has had them in his area for 15 years. As well, he has Bobolinks on his property. Unfortunately, the day before, a Black-billed Cuckoo hit a window and was killed. Lil Mohr, outside Almonte, has had two Eastern Bluebird families produce young. Please call Lynda at 613-256-5013 or email bennett@magma.ca with bird reports.

During our remarks at the recent Annual General Meeting, I and others took the opportunity to thank the Almonte General Hospital/Fairview Manor Foundation’s donors for their contributions during the 2013-14 fiscal year. As many of you are aware, the Ministry of Health and Long-term Care provides funding for day-to-day operating costs and for bricks and mortar. Funding for equipment is the responsibility of communities. Your generosity allowed the Hospital and Manor to purchase nearly $340,000 of new and replacement equipment over the past year. Patients and residents are benefitting from: Day Hospital • Mobile arm support Emergency Department • 2 cardiac monitors • Tono pen (for measuring eye pressure)

Fairview Manor • Hydraulic stretcher • 2 Broda chairs • 13 beds • 30 mattresses • Ceiling lift tracks In addition to all of this equipment, funds donated in 2013-14 supported a down payment on the beautiful new Fairview Manor van that was delivered in May. Last, but by no means least, members of the Leadership Team and Nursing staff benefitted from a donation by the Royal Bank that provided education designed to improve communication across the inter-disciplinary care team. Donors truly have made a positive impact on the quality of care received by patients and residents and on their comfort. Thank you, once again, for your tremendous support. Mary Wilson Trider is President & CEO of Almonte General Hospital and Fairview Manor.

Kentfield Kids to host Riot 4 Wyatt for young boy with brain tumour June 21 tlepack@perfprint.ca

Community –An Almonte business is working hard to help a family in need and they are hoping the community will join in too. Riot 4 Wyatt is a community fundraiser to support Wyatt Service and his family on Saturday, June 21 hosted by Kentfield Kids in Almonte (65 Mill Street) from 1 to 4 p.m. Service is four-years-old, loves to play with monster trucks and with his friends at the Almonte Cooperative Nursery School. Late last year, his parents Tania and Chris, took him to the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario after he complained of a headache. Once there he was admitted and di-

agnosed with a brain tumour. He underwent brain surgery and has had multiply procedures including six weeks of radiation. He has since been diagnosed with Stage 2 ependymoma, a slow growing malignant tumor. Wyatt is currently in a wheelchair and learning to walk again while continuing to have extensive rehabilitation. As one can only imagine the family is faced with the challenges of new expenses such as hospital parking, gas, meals and more. Erin Kentfield and Cynthia Stuart, the co-owners of Kentfield Kids, heard about Wyatt’s diagnosis as his parents regularly consign at the store. Along with Angela Gill, the two decided to step in and help the family out

to host Riot 4 Wyatt. “The family never asked for any of this, they are very humble and grateful for the community support,� said Kentfield. “We are in a position to do something and if we all work together we can make a difference. And if it makes one day brighter for them we feel we have done our job, it must be so tough for them.� There are a number of different activities planned that include a number of businesses on Mill Street. Kentfield Kids is offering a 10 per cent discount with a food donation for the family. For $3 people can purchase a fundraising bracelet at Kentfield Kids, Doree’s Habit, Crush, Blackbird, Hello Yellow, Soul Scents and the

Ice Cream Shop. On the Riot 4 Wyatt Facebook page, there is a fundraising auction, which is open until Sunday, June 22 and the three main prizes are: two strip loin steaks per month for a year donated by Don’s Meat Market; one cord of wood donated by A&D Firewood, valued at $350 and delivery up to 20 km; and a consultation/staging/home organization by Practical Staging Solutions, valued at $200. More items are set to be added. “Almonte in general is an amazing community,� said Kentfield. “The Mill Street merchants are a tight knit community and if we all come together we can make a big difference for the family.� On Saturday there will be entertain-

ment provided by students from Notre Dame Catholic High School, a Minion ‘mascot’ from Despicable Me for pictures, a barbecue hosted by the Barley Mow, face painting, cotton candy and more. “It’s going to a fun day,� said Kentfield. “Come on out and support a good family and have a good times. It’s an easy way to help.� They will even have balloons on sale for only $1. “Nothing is too small, every little bit helps,� said Kentfield. All money raised will go directly to Wyatt’s family and if anyone would like to make a donation to Riot 4 Wyatt they can do so directly at Kentfield Kids or by calling 613-256-5500. R0012703025/0515

It’s national Athletic Therapy Month this June OPP bike rodeo Friday bones, and joints. Best known for providing immediate on-field emergency care of professional and elite athletes, athletic therapists are skilled in returning athletes to competition as fast as possible after an injury. Those same skills and techniques also make them very effective in treating the injuries sustained by everyday active Canadians, including: • Common injuries from falls, daily activities and sports • Chronic and recurring conditions, pre-surgery and post-surgery • Emergencies at sporting events such as concussion, fractures, and spinal injuries • Workplace and motor vehicle accidents Carleton Place has its very own athletic therapy clinic. Certified athletic therapist and owner of ProActive Athletic Therapy, Valerie Beaulieu, pursued her long-life dream of starting up an athletic therapy clinic to provide pro-

fessional and personalized health care for both athletes and any active individuals that wish to improve their sport or work performance, functional ability and quality of life. ProActive Athletic Therapy has two athletic therapists that have a strong collaboration with three registered massage therapists within the facility. “We treat workplace injuries, whether that workplace is a playing field, an office or on a construction site; there is no difference�, said Beaulieu. “We help individuals get back into their game, whatever that may be, while empowering them with knowledge to be proactive about preventing re-injury. Our goal is to keep you active and involved during your recovery.� Proactive Athletic Therapy is located in the Heritage Walk plaza behind Frescho at 130 Lansdowne Avenue, Unit 9. For more information, visit www.proactiveathletictherapy.com. Submitted by Proactive Athletic Therapy.

Community – While we usually think of sports when we talk about athletic activity, most Canadians engage in some form of physical activity every day. Whether it’s lifting an infant into a highchair, running for the bus, or bending to reach a fallen sock behind the dryer, we move and exert our bodies constantly. And sometimes we feel the pain from those movements. That’s the idea behind National Athletic Therapy Month this June: an annual reminder that everyone can benefit from the expertise of Canada’s certified athletic therapists. By declaring, “We are all athletes�, the Canadian Athletic Therapists Association (CATA) hopes to educate Canadians who have sustained an injury to their muscles, bones, or joints that a certified athletic therapist (CAT) can help get them back to work and play. Certified athletic therapists specialize in treating acute and chronic injuries to muscles,

Stevens’ campaign manager, Terry Sheldon, called her campaign “one of the most successful campaigns we’ve run here in a long time,� pointing to a larger contingent of volunteers and suggesting there had been a shift in the entire riding, which has voted Conservative for decades. “People think it’s probably time for a change,� she said as the first polling

Button battery safety highlights International Product Safety Week June 16 to 20 tionally ingesting button-type batteries. These small, coin shaped batteries that power many common household items and children’s toys contain harmful substances like acids and heavy metals that can cause serious internal chemical burns or poisoning if ingested. Although button batteries in toys are usually

locked in place, they can be found in unsecured places like musical greeting cards, remote controls, books, flashing jewelry, small electronic devices and novelty items. “The Government of Canada is proud to participate in International Product Safety Week alongside government

partners from around the world. With consumer product safety truly being a global affair, these types of collaborative efforts are critical to protecting the health and safety of our citizens, said Rona Ambrose, Minister of Health.

• Supervise children when they use products containing button batteries. • Do not allow children to play with button batteries or remove them from household products. • Seek immediate medical attention if you suspect your child has swallowed a battery. Do not let the child eat

or drink, and do not induce vomiting until medical attention is received. While button-type batteries have unique risks associated with them, all types of batteries can pose a health risk if not properly installed, used, stored or discarded. Parents and caregivers can learn more at our healthycanadians.gc.ca by searching for Battery Safety.

IN MEMORIAM

GORDON, Rita R. – June 18, 2001 – In loving memory of a dear Mom, Mother-in-law, Nanny and Great Nanny. This month comes back with sad regret, It brings back a day we won’t forget. You fell asleep without saying goodbye, But our memories of you will never die. We miss you more than anyone knows, As each day passes our emptiness grows. The tears we shed will wipe away, But the ache in our hearts will always stay. No one knows the grief we bear, When our family meets and you’re not there. You left us suddenly, your thoughts unknown, But left us memories we’re proud to own. Please God, take a message, To our loved one in Heaven above, Tell her how much we miss her, And give her all our love. Luv You, Ron, Ruth, Terry and Sherry Paul and Janet Randy and Janice and families

IN MEMORIAM

JUBY – In precious memory of my darling husband Dale, who walked through Heaven’s Gate June 24th, 2012. A picture of you I carry in my heart, I close my eyes to see it When the world gets dark. A memory of you I carry in my soul, I wrap it close around me When the nights get cold. If you ask how I am, I’d say just fine, But the truth is If you could read my mind Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you, With aching heart and tears unseen, Wishing your absence was only a dream. Till we meet again, forever and always, xox Love Didee

OBITUARY

OBITUARY

HENDRY Winifred “Win” The family of Win Hendry (Baigent: nee Holmes), predeceased by her husbands Alexander (Sandy) Hendry and Harry Baigent, sadly announce her passing at the Jubilee Hospital in Victoria, BC, on December 21, 2013 in her 94th year. In 1954 she started her 31 year nursing career at the Rideau Regional Centre, retiring from the Smiths Falls Hospital in 1985, where she created many lasting friendships. After retirement, she moved to Victoria in 1997 and enjoyed her new home. Loved walking by the sea shore, greatly admired all the early show of flowers and delighted in the balmy weather of the west coast. She was a keen participant at her local community centre, enjoying her darts and crib games and maintaining an active social life. Over the years life presented her with many challenges, but she never lost her love of life and appreciation of all the positive things around her. Her favourite line everyday was “I always count my blessings”, and she always took the best of what each day offered her. She is survived by her sons Tony, Bernie, and Richard Baigent and daughter Leanne Kapostins (Hendry), 10 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at the St. Francis de Sales Church in Smiths Falls at 10:00 a.m. Saturday June 21, 2014. Cremation has taken place. Interment to follow in the St. Francis Cemetery. All are invited to share in a Celebration of Life at the Hanley Hall from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to your favourite charity.

STREET – In loving memory of our dear parents, Cecil who passed July 29, 1990 and Vivian who passed June 29, 2009. A silent thought, a secret tear, Keeps their memory ever dear, Time takes away the edge of grief, But memory turns back every leaf. Always lovingly remembered Leslie and Adele Bev and Sophia Judy And all your family

LINDSAY, Darryl – June 18, 2014 – In loving memory of our son. They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason, Will change the way we feel. For no one knows the heartache, That lies behind our smiles, No one knows how many times, We have broken down and cried. We want to tell you something, So there isn’t any doubt, You are wonderful to think about, But so hard to do without. It has been ten years Always in our hearts Mom and Dad

MOLYNEAUX – In loving memory of my Mother Nina Molyneaux who departed this world on June 23, 2008 to be with the angels of heaven. Mother was a wonderful mix of warmth, strength, love and generosity. Her baking was legendary and she welcomed every person, be they stranger or friend into her home with an open heart, good food and lovely conversation. She was a beautiful woman who had a deep faith that guided her through her life, and provided inspiration to her family. Sincere, gentle, kind, words that were commonly known used to describe her. Mother always greeted you with a smile and warm hospitality. I urge all of us to dry our tears, suspend our sorrow and perhaps our hurt, just long enough to remember the sweet miracle of my mother. We are not here to mourn her loss, but to celebrate her life. God in heaven now rejoices with my mother, his new angel. She is deeply missed by her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, sister and friends. Until we meet again my Mother is deep within my heart. Your forever loving Son Mark Crawford Calgary, Alberta

This 1951 Prefect drove around the Mosport race track Lifestyle – Bill Marr of Moncton, New Brunswick, writes: “Hi, Bill. I enjoy your column and I think your readers will enjoy this story. “In May of 1961, my uncle and aunt, Jack and Mildred Chisholm, who resided in Willowdale (part of Toronto) decided to take a drive north of Bowmanville in their 1951 Prefect to enjoy a picnic lunch and have a look at the new race track facility known as Mosport (pronounced Moe-sport, not Moss-port). It so happened that paving had been completed just a few days previous, there were no workmen around, and Jack convinced the Security Commissionaire to let them take a drive around the course. “Can’t you picture the Prefect leaning through the turns at Mosport at 15 miles per hour! My aunt captured a couple of minutes of footage on an 8 mm camera from the passenger seat. What a ride!” The Prefect was a four-door sedan built in England by Ford from 1939 to 1953 and sold widely across Canada as one of the forerunners of the compact cars adopted by the Big Three in Detroit in 1960 with the Falcon from Ford, the Corvair from GM, and the Valiant from Chrysler (the other noteable forerunner was the VW Beetle). We lived in Toronto in 1951, when Jack and Mildred’s Prefect was new. My friends and I (I was nine at the time) thought the Prefect looked funny because it was skinnier than the standard 6-passenger North American car of that era. We jokingly said that

the Prefect must have been put into a vice at the factory and had its sides squeezed closer together. Ron Pickford was born in England in 1938 and moved with his family to the west end of Toronto in 1953. The family car for much of the 1950s was a Prefect, and Ron’s mother was photographed standing beside the car in a supermarket parking lot with a shopping cart filled with a week’s supply of groceries. When Ron showed me the photo, I asked him why it was taken. After all, how many people do you know who have their picture taken with a shopping cart? Ron told me the reason. When they lived in England, they had only a small ice box for a refrigerator and had to shop for groceries every day. The photo was for the benefit of the relatives still living in England. See what life is like in Canada! We have a big refrigerator and we can shop for the whole week in one day! I’m always looking for more stories. Email billtsherk@sympatico. ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, Ont. N8H 3W2. Everyone whose story is published in this column will receive a free autographed copy of my latest book: “OLD CAR DETECTIVE FAVOUThis shows the 1951 Prefect that drove around Mosport.

What a good question.

healthy body.

I have personal and professional experience on this issue, which I will get to, but ďŹ rst of all I would like to be clear. Chiropractic care is not a cure or treatment for infertility. Chiropractic care restores and optimizes your body’s inborn ability to function properly by addressing your nervous system through spinal correction.

A study published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research looked at the effectiveness of chiropractic for infertility. In the study, 15 women who ranged in age from 22 – 65 were monitored with a history of infertility. At the end of the study, 14 of the 15 subjects became pregnant within 2 – 20 months of starting chiropractic care. This is an exciting ďŹ nding and more research is forthcoming.

Your reproductive organs are not under your conscious control but instead are directed by your autonomic nervous system (ANS), which is a branch of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The PNS is controlled by the central nervous system (CNS), which is made up of your brain & spinal cord. The release and movement of the egg, hormone regulation of the ovaries and uterus, as well as healthy sperm production in the father, all depend upon the body’s in-born innate intelligence that is housed deep within the central nervous system. Spinal misalignments can interfere with the nerve communication that is vital to a

To answer your question, clinically I have seen the amazing results with fertility that are possible by helping people achieve better alignment of their spine allowing the nervous system to function optimally. The body is an amazing creation that always beneďŹ ts from stewardship and care. For more information, please contact our clinic and we can produce more of the research and ďŹ nd you a chiropractor in your area. Blessings, Dr Murphy

Top athletes honoured at 61st annual ADHS banquet By TIFFANY LEPACK tlepack@perfprint.ca

Sports – Championships, heartbreaking losses and rebuilding seasons are all about building character, sportsmanship and orange and black pride. On June 10 Almonte District High School held its 61st annual athletic banquet celebrating 22 teams and handing out 52 individual awards. “2013-2014 has been a year to remember for the orange and black,” said Zack Kealey opening the program. “Our sports have been very successful.” The Thunderbolts won a number of championships over the past year including the golf team earning its third consecutive Lanark County Interschool Athletic Association (LCIAA) crown. Then it was a double football championship as both teams won the Lanark-Renfrew League championships. The senior football team then went on to claim the LCIAA title and lost in the National Capital semi-final, 26-21. Two students represented the school at the provincial championship in cross-country and three skiers also went to the All-Ontarios. In spring sports the junior boys soccer team won single ‘A’ Eastern Ontario Secondary Schools Athletic Association

(EOSSAA) title and the senior girls soccer team earned a silver medal at EOSSAA. And in track and field, two students travelled to the Ontario Federation of Secondary School Athletic Association (OFSAA) finals. During the awards, more than 50 athletes were presented with certificates for playing in more than three sports in one school year; some athletes played in five sports. Top awards Zack Kealey took home three most valuable player (MVP) awards and two of the special honours of the evening. Kealey was named defensive MVP for the senior boys football team, MVP for the senior boys basketball team, as well as the soccer team. Kealey was then bestowed the title of Most Outstanding Senior Male Athlete and was also given the OFSAA Colin Hood Leadership awards. Caitlin Kubiseski was named MVP in senior girls soccer and girls hockey. Kubiseski was honoured as the Most Outstanding Senior Female Athlete and was also given the OFSAA Colin Hood Leadership awards. Teacher and coach Sarah Graham, who helped organize the banquet, was surprised as it was announced that she was receiving the OFSAA Colin Hood Leadership award as well.

CARRIER OF THE MONTH!

Community – Great things happen when neighbours come together and it always takes just one person to get the ball rolling. The Augusta Street Park story reads like a fable of old. A young woman, Sarah Spinks, moves into the neighbourhood and is keen to invite her friends and new neighbours to the park to play basketball. The park is dark and grown in on itself, the basketball court cracked and covered with glass. Spinks’ mom approached Mills Community Support, who own houses near the park, to ask “what can be done?” A group of citizens, with help from Mills Community Support and Town of Mississippi Mills staff got to work on a plan. A landscape planner develops a plan with the group for free, and after a number of meetings with town council, approval is granted to the citizens to move forward on a phased plan to create a welcoming, inclusive park. Phases include new signage, an accessible walkway from one end to the other, community gardens, splash pad, a revamped basketball court and other features. Once establishing trust with town council, this group has not looked back. With help from a municipal grant, friends from the Neighbourhood Tomato Commu-

eHealth Ontario board chair Ray Hession, centre, was the guest speaker at the Almonte General Hospital (AGH) annual general meeting on June 2. Shown with Hession are AGH board chair Paul Virgin and AGH president and chief executive officer, Mary Wilson Trider.

News – Almonte General Hospital (AGH) has selected a vendor for its first Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system and will announce an implementation plan soon, AGH president and chief executive officer, Mary Wilson Trider reported at the hospital’s 52nd annual general meeting (AGM) on June 2. “With thanks to the provincial government’s Small, Rural and Northern Hospital Transformation Fund, a comprehensive procurement process was undertaken,” Trider said. “I am pleased to report that Cerner Corporation has been chosen as our EMR provider.” Because AGH is a small hospital, Trider said it makes sense to partner with another organization to undertake such a large implementation. “Partnership discussions are underway and we hope it won’t be too long before we are able to announce our implementation plan,” she added. Guest speaker at the AGM was Ray Hession, who chairs the Board of eHealth Ontario, the organization that helps physicians and health care providers establish and maintain electronic health records. Trider said the Transformation Fund also permitted AGH to modernize its pharmacy operations and drug distribution, and supported the creation of an online course repository that will be shared by the eight hospitals in the Champlain Alliance of Small Hospitals, the Ottawa Valley Family Health Team, the Community Care Access Centre, and others. “Transformation funding has also facilitated the adoption of Home First, a client-centered philosophy focused on supporting people in the community, rather than in hospital or long-term care,” said Trider. In 2013-14, AGH met its Quality Improvement Plan targets for medication reconciliation, patient falls in the complex continuing care unit, length-of-stay management and all the Hospital Service Accountability Agreement targets for emergency department wait times. “Once again, there were no hospitalacquired cases of VRE, MRSA or C. difficile,” Trider said. AGH, Fairview Manor (FVM) and the Lanark County Paramedic Service (LCPS) continued to receive high satisfaction ratings during the year.

“A highlight of the year was the May 1 announcement of the National Research Corporation Canada patient satisfaction results, which ranked maternity care at AGH as #1 in Ontario by patients asked to rate the overall care they received at the hospital,” Trider said. “AGH’s maternity care was ranked #1 in Ontario by patients asked if they would recommend the hospital to family or friends and AGH’s emergency care was ranked #1 among small hospitals by patients asked if they would recommend the hospital.” The LCPS underwent the Ministry of Health and Long-term Care’s ambulance service review in February, successfully met the standards required for accreditation and was awarded another three-year licence to operate. Paramedics responded to more than 16,000 calls across Lanark County in 2013-14 and received a 96 per cent positive rating from patients. Fairview Manor met or exceeded Health Quality Ontario (HQO) provincial averages on all four publicly reported indicators of long-term care quality and exceeded three of the four aspirational targets set by HQO’s expert panel. “I am also pleased to report that 100 per cent of residents and 100 per cent of family members who completed this year’s satisfaction surveys answered ‘yes’ when asked whether they would recommend Fairview Manor to family and friends,” Trider said. In 2013-14, AGH had more than 15,200 emergency department visits, 9,200 days of care in the Rosamond Unit, 561 discharges from the medical-surgical unit, nearly 1,000 surgical procedures, almost 11,600 diagnostic imaging procedures, 1,733 visits to day hospital and 396 births. Fairview Manor provided 40,170 days of care in its 111 residential beds and 198 days of care in the respite bed. AGH board chair Paul Virgin provided an update on the implementation of the organization’s strategic plan, including measures taken to: maintain and strengthen the obstetrical and emergency departments; identify appropriate clinical services that AGH could deliver as a satellite site; enhance access to services for aging and end-of-life patients; and identify revenue opportunities.

AGH chief of staff Dr. Michael Dolan reported on changes to the medical staff over the year and on efforts to recruit a new chief of obstetrics and gynaecology. He also reported that Dr. Enobong Ekong performed AGH’s first total laparoscopic hysterectomy. “More are planned for the future,” Dr. Dolan said. “Minimally invasive surgeries such as this are rapidly becoming the preferred method in suitable candidates.” Cheryl Barr, who chairs the Volunteer Services Committee, reported that the 208 adult volunteers, junior volunteers, casual volunteers, members of the AGH board of directors and AGH/FVM Foundation board of directors, and foundation volunteers contributed more than 13,400 hours in 2013-14. Trider and Virgin thanked the staff, medical staff, volunteers and board members who contributed to the success of AGH, FVM and LCPS. They also thanked the supporters of the AGH/FVM Foundation, which funded $339,000 in capital equipment for the hospital and manor in 2013-14. “We would also like to thank our community for its support and our patients, residents and family members who completed surveys or shared their thoughts and experiences,” Trider added. “It is wonderful to receive compliments and equally important to hear about concerns so that we can improve.” They also recognized the contributions of Susan Muston and Sue Hamilton, who are leaving the AGH board of directors. Dr. Thomas Todd, who has completed his nine-year term on the Board, has been appointed an honourary director so he can continue to serve as past chair. Dr. Heather Abramenko stepped down from her role as president of the medical staff association to become chief of perioperative medicine. Newly elected directors for 201415 are Louise Heslop, Randy Larkin and Michael Leonard. Returning to the board as elected directors are Rod Hall, Cindy Hobbs, Cathy Huffman, Mark MacGowan, Betty Preston, Rhonda Tees (vice-chair) and Paul Virgin (chair). Non-voting directors are: Dr. Melissa Forbes, president, medical staff association; Dr. Michael Dolan, chief of staff; Heather Garnett, vice-president patient & resident services and chief nursing officer; and Mary Wilson Trider.

This weeks’ Yard of the Week winner is at 274 Gore Street in Almonte. Due to limited mobility, it’s important for Al and Linda Zorgel to have as much of a low-maintenance garden as possible. Perennials in leaf shades hades of yellow, yellow blue and green completely fill the front yard and the hanging pot gives a punch of pizzazz. Their adjoining neighbour, Donna Craig, also has transformed her front yard into colourful perennial beds. Both have mulched their gardens with natural cedar to give a neat and coordinating appearance.

Community –Rev up your engines because the Canada Day Car Show in Almonte is back. After being away for a year, the show is now being organized by a new group and in a different location. The 6one3.com Car Club approached the Town of Mississippi Mills to host the show and they both agreed downtown would be the perfect location. The show will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with 150 to 200 antique hot rod and muscle cars closing down Mill Street and Little Bridge Street.

“We are excited to be bringing people downtown on Canada Day,” said Tiffany MacLaren, community economic cultural co-ordinator for the Town of Mississippi Mills. “The car show is a fun way to spend Canada Day and is a good family activity.” There will be a raffle during the show and money raised will be donated to the Almonte Skatepark project. “It’s nice, it’s an extra way to give back to the community,” said MacLaren. The Retro Rats Show Band will be performing at Coady’s Car Care Ltd. at 30 Mill St. “They played at Tulip Festival and they look like a lot of fun,” MacLaren said. The Civitan will also be hosting a barbecue near the post office and some local businesses

are also planning on being open. “We are hoping it will be busy and fun. Plus, it doesn’t conflict with the other activities at the park,” said MacLaren. “We are encouraging residents to come out and see the cars. I think it will be a really festive atmosphere.” After the car show is over, the celebrations for Canada’s 147th birthday continue at Gemmill Park. There are activities planned from 3 p.m. until dusk including bouncy castles, mascots, four live bands and fireworks provided by Apogee. Don’t forget the party will start on Canada Day Eve (June 30) in Pakenham with a fundraising barbecue at RBC from 5 to 7 p.m., kids activities starting at 6 p.m., a parade at 7 p.m. and fireworks provided by Apogee at dusk.

Historic theatrical walking tour opens June 25 in Perth Arts – Visitors and townfolk alike may be forgiven for thinking they have walked into a time warp starting June 25 as costumed characters from Perth’s past come to life five mornings a week this summer. Perth through the Ages, a historic, theatrical guided walking tour, is a youth training project organized by the Classic Theatre Festival and Matheson House Museum, running through Aug. 31, Wednesday to Sunday mornings at 11 a.m. This project features an original play, The Preacher and the Leading Lady, which was researched and developed by the troupe in tandem with director Laurel Smith and local historian Susan Code. It tells the story of the Reverend William Bell, an early Perth Presbyterian minister, and famed actress May Bell-Marks, both of whom mysteriously find themselves in 2014 Perth. As they journey through the town, they witness key events and characters that have formed part of the town’s storied 200 years while often sparring about their respective views on everything from the state of women’s attire to smoke-belching horse carts (or cars, as we know them today). Bell, played by local actor Kevin Kozo, and Bell-Marks, performed by Ottawa’s Jasmine Bowen (a veteran of that city’s Haunted Walk), are perfect foils whose comments on what they have seen historically and now will allow audiences to appreciate the importance of signature events in Perth history. With an equal mix of drama, history, and humour, the play’s cast also includes some additional up and coming talents that Perthites have likely seen on both high school and community stages, including Bobbie Cordick, Meaghan Brackenbury, Adam Reid and Madison Reid. The tour route will begin at Matheson House Museum (11 Gore Street East) at 11 a.m. sharp beginning June 25, and will follow down the streets of Perth to the Courier building (where viewers will watch the moment when women’s

Other scenes near the Crystal Palace will allow historic characters to remark upon the remarkable changes they have witnessed, and scenes both at the Legion and along Beckwith Street East will be touching reminders of the human cost of both world wars.

the last fatal duel in Canada was fought, makes an appearance. The tour finishes at St. James Anglican Church, site of many historic events and the new home for the Classic Theatre Festival. The Perth through the Ages project is the product of an intensive period of research facilitated by local historic animator Susan Code and collective creation and writing led by Laurel Smith, the Classic Theatre Festival’s artistic producer. Troupe members also had the privilege of interviewing residents of the Lanark Lodge long-term care home

to gain insights into the Perth of days past. “We have a terrific group of young people working with us on the project, and this is a chance for them to stretch their talents, learn new things, and share great stories with tourists and locals alike, a lot of whom marvel at the historic architecture of Perth but don’t always know the stories behind the gorgeous facades,” Smith says. “This is a great opportunity to not only share memorable stories, but also give everyone a strong sense of place and pride

in our community as it approaches its bicentennial.” Smith points to the strong partnership with Matheson House and Perth Tourism, and credits the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund, the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport’s Celebrate Ontario program, the Ontario Trillium Foundation, and Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization with significant support as well. The tour will wind up at St. James Anglican Church, whose Good Shepherd Hall is being transformed into a professional theatre space this summer as the festival celebrates its fifth anniversary with the Neil Simon comedy, Come Blow Your Horn (July 11 to Aug. 3) and the gripping mystery thriller, Dial M for Murder by Frederick Knott (Aug. 8 to 31). Visitors to the new space will note the historic overtones inside the building as well, which will features posters, costumes designs, and other artifacts from Canadian theatre history in the hallways and theatre lobby. This summer, the festival is also adding a Thursday matinee. With eight shows a week (Wednesday to Saturday at 8 p.m., with 2 p.m. matinees every Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday), the Festival offers audiences lots of flexibility in choosing their dates. Pre-show talks will occur at 1:30 p.m. preceding each matinee. Meanwhile tickets for the Perth through the Ages walking tour will be limited, so those wishing to attend are encouraged to book tickets in advance by calling Tickets Please at 613-4856434. Tickets are $12, $10 for festival ticketholders, and free for children aged 12 and under. Day-of tickets will be available at the Perth Tourism Visitor Centre (11 Gore Street East). The tour will be last about one hour and 15 minutes. Further information on the walking tour and the festival’s new season is available at www.classictheatre.ca or by calling 1-877-283-1283.

Car Counsellor offers tips to truck owner experiencing dash control failure Lifestyle – “Hello Brian, I have a 1998 Mazda B-4000 4x4 truck and I have a small issue with it that has stumped many a mechanic and auto-part store representative. The speedometer and odometer stop working after only a few kilometres but all other gauges in the instrument cluster continue to work. During winter they both work for a little longer, I assume because it takes the engine longer to warm up, and sometimes in the summer will not work at any time during the day. I have also noticed if it is extremely cold (-20 and lower) the instruments will work for a few kilometres, stop working, then if the truck is parked for some time and started, the instruments will work again but not as long as first thing in the morning. The speed sensor unit has been changed on the rear axle and this has not corrected or improved the situation and it’s still the same. I have spoken with Mazda and Ford reps and they cannot provide any insights to the exact cause. Finally, except for this issue the truck is in sound mechanical condition and has never had any mechanical or electrical faults. I was hoping you may have a light bulb moment and solve this minor issue for me.” Cheers, Troy This Mazda’s PCM (Power-train Control Module) receives vehicle speed information from the antilock brake system rear wheel speed sen-

sor. The raw signal from this sensor on the rear axle goes directly to the anti-lock brake module where the signal is corrected for tire diameter. Then the corrected signal is sent to the PCM, speed control, cluster, etc. If the sensor on the diff has been replaced with no change, the problem will be found in one of the following areas: 1) Signal harness from the diff sensor to the module. 2) Internal fault of the ABS or power-train control module. 3) Signal harness from the PCM to the cluster. 4) Internal fault of the cluster. 5) Poor grounds for any of the above. Based on the observation that more than the speedometer/odometer stops working in the cold, I suspect the problem is in the cluster or the wiring that feeds it. The cheapest way to try to fix this would be to obtain a used cluster from a salvage yard. The alternative is to take the

truck to a very experienced Mazda B4000 or Ford Ranger technician and be willing to pay for his or her time to check the wiring and modules. At labour rates of $100/hour or more, trying out a used cluster will very likely be much cheaper. “Hi Brian, I Googled parking lots for new unsold cars and was astonished by the millions of cars that have never been sold and are parked in mega lots to rot. Would these cars not be better off recycled? Maybe today’s new cars wouldn’t be so expensive if the manufacturers didn’t yearly make more cars than demand calls for. If everyone refused to buy a brand new car for one year I think maybe the manufacturers would get the hint. Your thoughts?” Debby Some of the information received on the Internet can be a bit of an exaggeration (hard to believe, I know) but as with many things on the web, sometimes there’s a bit of truth as

well. Prior to the bankruptcy and bailouts of two large Detroit-based automakers, it was a common practice for these companies to produce far more vehicles than their dealers were ordering. Then, at the end of a model year, deep discounts and incentives were applied to move these mountains of metal, often at very low profit margins. While I’m not entirely conversant with European or Asian production practices, I’m pretty safe in stating that everything produced for the North American market, does end up on the road eventually. After the North American bailouts, carmakers seem to have learned their lessons and are periodically shutting down assembly lines for short periods of time when inventories start to climb and get stagnant. But if you see them return to the end-of-model year deep discounts, you may be excused for believing they’re back to their old tricks. What the last recession proved is that if a major manufacturer doesn’t have some degree of flexibility built into their financial planning and production schedules, (especially when it comes to cutting back in low demand times) they are doomed to failure and I’m not a fan of bailing them out again. As for putting off purchasing a vehicle for a year, many consumers don’t have much choice, but when you consider how many of our tax dollars went into the bailouts, per-

haps we might be owed a new car from certain makers. Upcoming events On Saturday, June 21 the Ottawa Jaguar Club presents EUROCARS 2014 and Jaguar Show ‘n’ Shine at the Rockcliffe Flying Club.

Twitter and 5-1-1 added to AMBER Alert messages News – When an AMBER Alert is issued, timing is critical, and police need to get information out fast. The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is adding Twitter and the MTO 5-1-1 roads infoservice as new tools to get the details about a child abduction occurrence out

as quickly as possible to as wide an audience as possible. With the use of Twitter, an AMBER Alert will travel among thousands of cell phones and electronic devices within seconds. And with the capability for Twitter subscribers to not only receive

but to ‘retweet’ information, police know that an AMBER Alert announcement can be multiplied to thousands of people fast. Twitter will enhance the Ontario AMBER Alert Program by enabling public notifications to a growing

network of partner-agencies who spread the word whenever there is a report of an abducted child anywhere in Ontario who may be in danger. Earlier this year, the Ministry of Transportation announced they would also partner with the Program by making

it easier for the public to be informed quickly whenever an AMBER Alert is in effect. Now when motorists see an AMBER Alert on overhead highway signs, they can dial 5-1-1 for information regarding the alert in effect to obtain information on suspect vehicles.

SMITHS FALLS

RELAY FOR LIFE 2014 Relay for Life hits $50,000 mark in Smiths Falls By LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com

News – The numbers are down from last year, but that didn’t dampen the spirits of Amanda Gifford, fundraising coordinator for the Canadian Cancer Society, Lanark, Leeds and Grenville. “It was a fantastic night in Smiths Falls,” Gifford said Monday. “We got lucky in Smiths Falls because the rain held off, but our Brockville event was hit by a thunderstorm.” Despite the threat of rain in Smiths Falls, there were 22 teams who took part in the 12-hour, overnight Relay for Life, raising $50,020 this year. Thirtynine survivors were included in the initial lap around the track. There were also 522 luminaries lit in honour or in memory of loved ones, and 256 participants took turns walking for the 12hour period. Cancer Kicking Cousins was the top fundraising team this year, topping $8,427. They had a big boost from Precision Hair Design, who held a Streak for the Cure event. Brian Paquette, (Coach Brian from Zendragon), got the crowd started during an emotional opening ceremonies. He was there to lead the warm-up of participants before the relay, but he also inspired those present with his own reasons for taking part. “Last year, we were here for Zoe,” he said, of his young friend – a child, whose life ended from cancer just weeks after last year’s relay. Paquette then shared a story about a little boy who wanted to help save the starfish that were washed ashore after the tide dragged them in… much to the chagrin of the old man who told him he couldn’t make a difference to the thousand of starfish that had washed up on the shore. “The little boy picked up just one starfish and threw it back in the ocean and said to the old man, ‘I made a difference to that one.’” Paquette’s message was clear – we can’t always make big miracles happen, but we can make a thousand little miracles happen every day – each and every one of us, he said. “Make your day count.” Comparison Last year, 25 teams raised $71,000 in Smiths Falls; Almonte’s totals were down $25,000 this year, but still over $100,000. Brockville’s totals topped the region with $102,229. Gifford noted that they had fewer, but larger teams, as many joined together this year. Brockville reported having 11 less teams this year, with 28 participating. Just three years ago, the event was held at the Lombardy fairgrounds, as a milestone was hit in 2011 – the $3 million mark after 12 years running. This was attained after some $250,000 was raised by 65 teams in Lombardy alone. When asked if they’d move the relay back to Lombardy from Smiths Falls, Gifford was hesitant at first. “No,” she said. “There were a number of issues we had to tackle at Lom-

bardy that we don’t have here in Smiths Falls at the high school.” Fire is just one of those issues. “At the high school, we can’t have open burning – camp fires or barbecues – because it’s school policy. But after speaking about this with the team captains, they were fine with that. There were a number of people who didn’t like the blowing smoke from the open air burning.” Noise from generators was another concern. Camper trailers, which used the generators for power, were allowed in Lombardy, but not at the high school. The generators created another problem for participants, which was alleviated by the move. But even so, Gifford says there are a number of ways people can donate to the Canadian Cancer Society, and money is still coming in from their online

sponsorship page, which is open until the end of July. “We have so many ways to donate,” she says. “We have a number of fundraisers, and people are still donating to the cause. It’s just spread out more over the course of the year.” A new event will be held this year in Kemptville at Riverside Park with a 2km and 5km fun run. The event, to be held Sept. 27, is called Neon Nights and money raised from this fundraiser will go to childhood cancer. Another newer event earlier this year was the Rave-a-lution, a dance/exercise party held at the Perth Civitan Club. Gifford hopes to find some volunteers to help her with the second installment of this initiative. For more information on the Canadian Cancer Society, please visit their website: www.cancer.ca.

Take action against cancer now! Changing public policy is one of the most effective tools for preventing cancer and helping those living with and beyond cancer. The best way to change public policy is for Canadians to speak up and make our collective voices heard. Funding of take home cancer drugs It is estimated that 2 out of 5 Canadians are expected to develop cancer in their lifetime. Cancer is stressful enough without adding the extra burden of financial stress and anxiety related to drug access. Unfortunately, the current system in Ontario often does create this additional stress, and at times delays or prevents patients from accessing cancer medications. The Canadian Cancer Society recommends that Ontario develop a provincial program that provides full coverage for eligible cancer drugs taken at home. Ontario has the opportunity to study and review the programs in the other provinces and develop a program that is right for Ontario. It is essential that stakeholders, including the Society, Cancer Care Ontario, patients, and the insurance and pharmaceutical industries, be part of the discussion and involved in the development of the program. Flavoured tobacco In order to remain profitable, the tobacco industry must find new smokers to replace those who die from tobacco related disease or quit. Flavoured tobacco products are designed to appeal to youth and are available in candy and fruit flavours and are often wrapped in shiny

youth-friendly packaging. The Canadian Cancer Society is asking the government to #endtheflavour and ban all flavoured tobacco products, including flavoured smokeless tobacco products. Attempts have been made to ban flavoured tobacco but they have not been enough. In 2010, both the Government of Ontario and the Government of Canada banned the sale of candy-flavoured cigarillos. This law didn’t go far enough because it only banned one product: cigarillos. The law is ineffective because it has a loophole

that defines a cigarillo as 1.4 grams or less. This opened the door for the same product, just larger, to be made. This means that candy-flavoured cigarillos as well as a wide variety of other flavoured tobacco products are still being sold in Ontario. This is why we need a complete ban on flavoured tobacco products. What you can do There are lots of ways you can advocate and help in the fight against cancer.

Dragon sequel offers wonderful adventure Planked brie with blueberry chutney perfect as appetizer or dessert

MOVIE: How to Train Your Dragon 2 STARRING Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler, America Ferrera, Cate Blanchett, Craig Ferguson, Kit Harington and Djimon Hounsou DIRECTOR: Dean DeBlos RATING: PG Arts – How to Train Your Dragon 2 will break your heart, and then set your spirit soaring. It’s an emotional rollercoaster, but what an incredible ride. It’s been five years since Hiccup (Jay Baruchel) and Toothless made peace between the people of Berk and the dragons. Life on Berk has become a lot better, but Hiccup is still searching for something. He’s still not sure who he is, and his father, Chief Stoic (Gerard Butler), isn’t helping with talk of Hiccup becoming chief. There’s a whole world to explore and mysteries to discover. New islands and new dragons that Hiccup wants to find. One of these explorations leads Hiccup to someone he never dreamed of meeting: his mother Valka (Cate Blanchett). Valka wasn’t eaten by a dragon, she was taken by a dragon. She’s spent the last 20 years living with dragons and learning all about them. She’s also been rescuing dragons from Drago Bloodfist

My Take MARK HASKINS

(Djimon Hounsou). Drago is a bloodthirsty warrior who’s been building a dragon army to conquer the world. The only ones in Drago’s way are Hiccup, Valka, Stoic and all the rest of Berk’s dragon riders. Drago is unlike any foe Hiccup and Toothless have faced. Drago’s army is unlike anything the world has ever seen. This is their greatest test. When an animated film is this rich, this lush, this gorgeous you lose yourself in it. It’s at the point where you forget you’re watching an animated film. This is the experience of How To Train Your Dragon 2. This world, these characters and these dragons become living things right there on the screen, and even though they’re animated they become real. This isn’t a story but an adventure. Before the credits are done you’re flying across the ocean and riding the backs of dragons. This film pulls you in

and connects with you in a way that all films hope to do, but few actually do. The entire cast returns for this sequel, and they’ re perfect. Gerard Butler and Craig Fergusson are two of my favourite Vikings. America Ferrera gives Astrid her fire and fight, and Jay Baruchel not only gives Hiccup his voice he gives him his soul. Along with the returning cast members are a few new voices. I can’t think of anyone better to be the voice of Hiccup’s fierce dragon loving mother than Cate Blanchett. Kit Harington is a nice addition to the cast as dragon wrangler Eret, and Djimon Hounsou is everything you could hope for in a villain who breaks dragons to his will. How to Train Your Dragon 2 is one of those rare films that isn’t so much a movie as it is an experience. It’s definitely not for the faint of heart. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of the EMC.

Catholic school board using technology for improved communication between schools News – The following are highlights from the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSBEO) meeting held June 3 at the board office in Kemptville. CDSBEO schools value and appreciate the power of communication. Technology has vastly transformed and improved communication through better accessibility, flexibility and the ability to more easily collaborate. Schools are making the most of technology when communicating with students, parents and our Catholic school communities. Tom Jordan, superintendent of school effectiveness, presented information to the board regarding some of the ways which technology is being leveraged by schools to improve and enhance communication. “The Synrevoice program, which allows schools to send out a recorded message via telephone to parents, is used extensively throughout the board. It is an excellent tool for sharing general information, reminders, and providing updates to parents regarding changes to school routines,� explained Jordan. Schools websites are tools used extensively by board schools, as well as teacher sites, which are used to provide updates, information, and homework information to students. “Close to 45 per cent of our schools are also utilizing Facebook and Twitter to communicate with students and parents. The tools also help to share good news stories and photos,� added Jordan. “In addition, approximately 42 per cent of our Catholic school councils are utilizing some form of electronic communication with their parent communities.� Technological initiatives through-

out the board are linked to the CDSBEO strategic plan, which outlines that the board is committed to seek out and utilize technologies, including social media, to ensure effective and efficient communication practices. J.L. Jordan Catholic School “Christ is Our Compass� program For any individual, business, organization, school, or society to be able to succeed at consistently moving in the direction of their vision, each individual must be able to identify and embrace a core set of values and remain true to these values through the development of habits of mind, and habits of soul. Since 2008, the “Our Compass is Christ� program has helped individuals set and achieve their vision for themselves, and for their school. J.L. Jordan Catholic School principal, Paul Mantha, developed the vision and established the program six years ago, while vice-principal at Bishop Macdonell Catholic School. Based on his own personal mission statement developed nearly 20 years ago, Mantha created the program from a need for direction and focus. It provides students, staff, and families with four common principles to aspire to. These principles become their mission, their common language and practice, as they move toward a common goal. “The program was inspired by my own beliefs around the need for a personal mission statement, and also from Stephan Covey’s ideas around core values, and Ron Morrish’s ideas around the importance of taking the time to teach the little things,� explained Mantha in his presentation to the board.

“The first year it was put in place at Bishop Macdonell, the program was embraced by staff and within the first year of implementation we saw a reduction of over 50 per cent in behavioural incidents and suspensions. All staff were focusing on teaching from a proactive stance – we were not relying on intervention and consequence alone, we invested heavily in prevention,� he added. Focused on a set of core values and collective visioning, the program is discussed and reviewed with staff, students, and the community at the beginning of each school year. It is then reviewed and reinforced with students several times throughout the year. Core values set out in the program establish direction and help maintain a clear focus. The vision, “Guided by the Holy Spirit, we create a community of peace where all learners think clearly, act wisely, feel deeply, and live responsibly,� has been incorporated the programs core values on a poster. This summary is displayed prominently in all public areas and classrooms, to help with daily reflection on the program principles. The four cardinal points, which are listed on the poster with supporting information, include: Focus on Excellence, Do the Right Thing – Even When No One is Looking, Treat People with Respect, and Leave a Legacy. The points of focus are based on Christ’s teachings, and are the core values of the compass program. The school has also adopted a theme song called “Yes I Can� to help encourage students with following the moral compass. “In addition, Compass Champions Awards are given every two weeks by

teachers at a school assembly, and students listen intently as to why each student received the award,â€? added Mantha. Aboriginal role models in the classroom The CDSBEO continues to strive to meet the goals set forth in the Ontario First Nation, MĂŠtis, and Inuit Education Policy Framework. In doing so, there has been an intentional focus on collecting and analyzing data connected with our self-identified students and creating initiatives which respond to what the data is indicating. Curriculum consultant and Aboriginal education lead, Jennifer Deschamps, presented information on the “Aboriginal Role Models in the Classroomâ€? initiative, which has been piloted in four schools where there are clusters of selfidentified students. “Through this initiative, opportunities are created for students to interact in cultural ways with Aboriginal role models and at the same time help build awareness for all students and educatorsâ€? explained Deschamps. “It is also increasing the involvement of First Nation, MĂŠtis and Inuit community partners with our Catholic schools.â€? “We looked at the research, specifically in Ontario, which focused on the importance of integrating our self-identified students through Aboriginal teachings, as well as the importance of building partnerships with the Aboriginal community, and between students and the Aboriginal community,â€? she added. Aboriginal community members, who were selected to become the role models for the various schools, and grade levels,

were connected directly with the geographical region of each school. As the Aboriginal education lead, Deschamps partnered with school educator teams and Aboriginal community partners to make collaborative decisions about how the Aboriginal role model experiences would unfold in each school. In all schools involved, Aboriginal role models made multiple visits to their assigned school and facilitated cultural experiences in both formal and informal settings, allowing opportunities for students to learn, to interact, and to build relationships and pride. Annual report on provision of special education services The Special Education Plan for June 2014, as outlined in the Standards for School Boards’ Special Education Plans, has been compiled by consulting with necessary stakeholders and involving key participants in the process. The report includes recommendations to be implemented, including the staff to be allocated for schools, professional development, as well as plans for communication and involvement of parents. Superintendent of school effectiveness, Dr. Donaleen Hawes, brought forth the annual report on the provision of special education programs and services to the board. The report was presented to the special education advisory committee, on Wednesday, May 28, and the committee unanimously supported the recommendations included. The report and accompanying recommendations were also approved by the board for submission to the Ministry of Education. Submitted by the CDSBEO. R0012757045
