CARLETON PLACE MAYOR FACING NEW CODE OF CONDUCT VIOLATION COMPLAINT SUBMITTED IN JULY BY COUNCILLOR TARA GESNER tgesner@metroland.com Another complaint has been filed with Carleton Place's integrity commissioner. Coun. Brian Doucett confirmed to the Canadian Gazette he filed a code of conduct violation - his second - against Mayor Louis Antonakos. The complaint was submitted in July, and "I believe it to be warranted," he said. "I believe it is in the public interest to release the information," Doucett added. Council held a special session on Oct. 16, which was after this newspaper's press deadline, to acknowledge a report dated Oct. 4 from the integrity commissioner - Tony Fleming. During the council meeting on

Oct. 9, a motion was carried by a 4-0 recorded vote to go ahead with the special gathering. Antonakos asked for the recorded vote, but he abstained when clerk Duncan Rogers called out his name. Deputy Mayor Jerry Flynn and councillors Doug Black, Theresa Fritz and Sean Redmond voted in favour of calling the special meeting. Councillors Doucett and Trimble were absent with regrets. In March, Carleton Place appointed Kingston-based law firm Cunningham, Swan, Carty, Little & Bonham LLP, led by Fleming, to provide the services of an integrity commissioner, severing ties with its long-term watchdog, Caledon lawyer Robert Swayze. At the time of the switch, Antonakos stated: "Tony is a well-respected lawyer. He is a municipal expert." Fleming was in council cham-

ALMONTE IN CONCERT NAMES STEINWAY GRAND PIANO OCT. 20 On Saturday, Oct. 20 at 7:30 p.m. in the Almonte Old Town Hall, the first concert of the Almonte in Concert (AIC) season will present The New Gen, pairing two of Canada's emerging artists with an artistic mentor featuring Brian Mangrum (horn) and Boson Mo (violin) with mentor Jamie Parker (piano). Program highlights include the Brahms Horn Trio, Franck's Sonata in A for violin and piano, and Schumann's Adagio and Allegro for horn and piano. At this concert the Steinway piano will be named after Jamie Parker, who selected it for AIC in November 2002. We are thrilled to have Jamie perform at the concert and we encourage you to join us for this very special occasion. In 2001 the AIC Board began the task of fundraising

in order the purchase a new piano and raised the $92,000 that was required, not a small feat for the organization. On Nov. 1 2002, three board members visited the Steinway factory in Queens, New York City accompanied by Jamie Parker and his colleague, composer William Hirtz. After a fascinating tour of the factory, many hours were spent playing different pianos. In arriving at the final selection Jamie felt that the chosen piano provided the best balance in all ranges and he liked its "touch." It was an interesting process

for us all, an experience not to be forgotten. Time has shown that Jamie did indeed make a wonderful choice for us. So many musicians have commentated on the quality of the sound and how they love playing it. Over the years the piano has become an important part of our community, being used for other concerts, events and recordings. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit almonteinconcert.com.

State of the Art Health Care Facility With the $8.75 million dollars in provincial funding now secured and construction on our new emergency room set to commence in 2020, we will focus our efforts on supporting community initiatives to raise the remaining construction and medical/clinical equipment dollars required so that Carleton Place residents have access to a state-of-the-art health care facility. Modernized Infrastructure Through ongoing collaboration with the Ministry of Infrastructure, our focus will be on securing the necessary provincial funding required to replace our town’s central bridge. This will facilitate access throughout our community and ensure that our downtown core continues to thrive. Improved Quality of Life As our community grows, we must continue to further invest in our recreational facilities, parks and trails, environmental initiatives, and arts and cultural programs that will enhance the overall quality of life for all Carleton Place residents.

At an all-candidates' meeting hosted by the Carleton Place & District Chamber of Commerce, 19 of a possible 20 contenders introduced themselves before answering questions posed by MC Brian Perkins of Lake 88, which were submitted in advance by members of the public.

In regards to the questions posed to candidates, the topics covered a wide breadth of subjects including Central Bridge, cannabis retail shops, arena upgrades, in camera meetings, affordable/senior housing, local heritage and economic development. Candidates were given up to two minutes to answer questions. Clay Spero was the event's timer, receiving assistance from past chamber board chair Donna MacDonald. In camera meetings According to Fritz, when dealing with litigation or land sales ... "these are the types of things to be discussed in camera." "One of the things I have spoken to many times this term is our need to decrease our in camera meetings," she continued, and "we did cut them back to once or twice a month." "There are too many in camera meetings - period!" DeBaie exclaimed. "The only time council should go in camera is to talk about employee issues or litigation matters." Villa concurred, and he noted, "Less in camera meetings would be better, unless they needed for the reasons already mentioned." Tennant expects the issue to be discussed more during this term of council, owing to the possibility of the streaming of council meetings. "I want to be part of this discussion," he said.

Tara Gesner/Metroland An all-candidates' meeting hosted by the Carleton Place & District Chamber of Commerce was held at the Neelin Street Community Centre on Oct. 11. Many residents attended, listening to Carleton Place candidates for mayor, deputy mayor and councillor speak on some of the pressing issues facing the town. Kwissa has been researching the power council has when it comes to affordable housing. "We have no more land to build on, and the municipality is not a landlord typically," she said. "However, councillors can reevaluate the town's Official Plan and pass bylaws to allow for things such as garden suites and tiny homes." Seccaspina suggested a mandate for developers ... "if you want to come and build in Carleton Place you need to build some affordable units." "Unfortunately, it does not make them money so they do not want to do it," she said. "This is a very serious issue." "We need to address this, not just for seniors but for young people as well," (Jennifer) Rogers said. "They cannot afford the $400,000 or $500,0000 (homes) being built now."

"Our community is getting older ... we need to think outside the box - carriage homes and tiny homes," she added. Randell's mother is 80 years old. She lives with his brother. "We have an aging community," he said. The councillor candidate will ensure future residential development meets the needs of all citizens, and "the lines of communication are open with seniors, developers and government agencies." Local heritage Gerbec believe heritage is really important, and "it is one of the major charms of Carleton Place." "I think our heritage museum has been doing a good job," she added. As a community turning 200 in 2019, "it is pretty easy to see we have a lot of heritage and history in Carleton Place," Fritz said.

When it comes to heritage, "I think we are doing a great job, with an active heritage committee and a thriving museum," she continued. "(Museum manager) Jennifer Irwin is doing a lot of great work." The history of Carleton Place is shown on its murals. "We have Roy Brown and Stompin' Tom Connors," Fritz said. "We have managed to bring our history from books and put it on the sides of walls." Cannabis retail shops When cannabis is legalized, a key question for new municipal councils will be to opt-in or opt-out of allowing retail stores in their community. "Personally, I do not have a problem with cannabis ... I have invested in it," Tennant said. "I would support this as long as we See AFFORDABLE, page 7

bers on Oct. 9 on another matter. His firm is the town's solicitor. Doucett's complaint brings the number of grievances filed against Antonakos during this term of council to seven. Two have been dismissed, and he has been found accountable of four: intimidation (filed by Kory Earle); disclosing confidential documents (filed by Coun. Brian Doucett); disclosing information from an in camera meeting (filed by Wally Thorbjornsson); and failing to treat members of the public with dignity, understanding and respect (filed by former Carleton Place Mayor Paul Dulmage). In Doucett's initial complaint, he charged Antonakos released two confidential reports in an email the

mayor sent in October 2017 to Swayze, all members of the current council and to senior town staff. The former integrity commissioner revealed the two confidential reports concerned Dulmage, which were prepared by Qunitet Consulting in 2010, when Dulmage was mayor. At the time, Swayze stressed: "These reports were considered by council in closed session in 2010 and disclosing them constituted a breach of the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (MFIPPA). The list of current council

members who received the reports included councillors who were not members in 2010." He found the intent of Antonakos' email was to discredit Dulmage. Swayze concluded: "Copying persons who were not on council when the reports were considered in camera is clearly a serious violation of the code as well as the MFIPPA." This newspaper has repeatedly reached out to Antonakos for comment on the multiple complaints but has never received a response.

WHY VOTE FOR TRUSTEES? School board trustees hold the only democratically elected office that is solely responsible for education. A trustee is responsible for identifying the needs and priorities of their community and for ensuring these are considered in the decisions that result in practical educational opportunities for students. It is the local trustee who makes sure that the community has a direct way to express its views on vital education decisions that affect our day-to-day lives. You have the right to vote for who represents you in these important matters. WHO CAN VOTE? To vote in a school board election in Ontario, you must be aged 18 or older and be a Canadian citizen. If you are a resident of a municipality, you are eligible to vote for school trustee. If you are the owner or tenant (or spouse of an owner or tenant) of residential property in a municipality, you are eligible to vote for school trustee. Note: School boards can cover large areas of the province and include many municipalities. You are only allowed to vote for the same school board once. If you are eligible to vote in a municipality because you are the owner or tenant (or spouse of an owner or tenant) of a commercial property there, you are not eligible to vote for school trustee. WHAT DO TRUSTEES DO? School board trustees are the members of a school board. They are locally-elected representatives of the public, and they are the community’s advocate for public education. They are required to carry out their responsibilities in a manner that assists the board in fulfilling its duties under the Education Act. A trustee’s role is to maintain a focus on student achievement, well-being and equity and to participate in making decisions that benefit the board’s entire jurisdiction while representing the interests of their constituents. Trustees must also communicate the views and decisions of the board back to their constituents. A trustee is responsible for identifying the needs and priorities of their community and for ensuring these are considered in the decisions that result in practical educational opportunities for students. In doing so, trustees must consider conflicting interests and values. A trustee must do this in collaboration with the other members of the school board by developing policies that work for all students, and ensuring they are implemented effectively.

town core, culturally significant areas ... there needs to be a public consultation process before developers go ahead, following the rules and spending a lot of dollars," he said. As a lawyer, Lee reviewed the town's Official Plan, finding many areas that could be argued one way or another. "The first thing we need to do is review the Official Plan, looking at the goals of the downtown area," he said. According to Black, "The message has been loud and clear from the people of Carleton Place ... there are areas where they do not want this increased density." "Sooner or later we are going to need to say it is not complementary and not consistent with the neighbourhood," he added. "I am prepared to stop this density in our older areas of Carleton Place." Recounting the recent Allan Street "fiasco," (Craig) Rogers stressed: "Developers and residents need to know the rules the town uses to implement its Official Plan." Rae read the Official Plan, calling areas "vague." He supports reviewing the document in the next term of council. However, "we are also a growing town and we need to realize this." Arena upgrades Are candidates committed to putting shovels in the ground in 2019 for the expansion of the arena?

According to (Jennifer) Rogers, "we have to look at budgets and what needs to be done." "We need to have the money up front, and we need to prioritize what needs to be done at the arena and go from there," she said. "Yes, we could have shovels in the ground, but should it be done ... this remains to be seen." "Shovels should have been in the ground three years ago," Randell exclaimed. "We are one of the largest municipalities in Lanark County, and we have the least amount of dressing rooms." "It needs to be done," he said. "Yes, taxes need to be considered, but we need to do something." For Piper the answer was easy. "Yes, if the funds (to pay for it) are independent of Carleton Place," he said. "No, if it is the town." Atkinson believes the arena project has been put off for too long. "We need to bite the bullet and get it done," he said. However, in 20 years the arena will be 70 years old, and "we need to put something in place to plan ahead, when our population is much larger ... we cannot do another patch job." There are three individuals running for one seat for the Upper Canada District School Board Trustee Ward 1, which covers Beckwith, Carleton Place, Mississippi Mills: incumbent Donald Cram, Carole Dufort and Sharon Holzscher-

have done all the necessary research." Looking at places like Colorado and California, "cannabis has put them in the black," Kwissa said. "Cannabis is not all about people toking, getting high and doing nothing." "This is a business, and it could bring a lot of revenue to our town," she said. "I do not think we should close the door on this." "I just do not was to see stores open up on Bridge Street," Seccaspina said. "It needs to be done in a careful way." "Tweed has put Smiths Falls on the map," she stressed. (Jennifer) Rogers believes cannabis can do a lot of good, but on the flip side "people can get high and do some crazy things, just like they do with alcohol." "We need to delve into this further before we make any decisions," she said. "Once you opt in you cannot opt out." Arts and culture "I believe a thriving arts and culture scene contributes to economic development," Dulmage said. "If I was a company looking for a place to locate I would certainly like to see what the arts and culture is around there." "People moving to a town look for activities their children can take part in" he added. "It is not the key factor, but one of them." Redmond concurred the arts and culture scene contributes to economic development. "When we attract people to Carleton Place for festivals, concerts or plays it gets them into our downtown restaurants, bars and retail shops," he said. "We have the Mississippi Mudds and a number of talented musicians here ... we need to embrace our arts and culture more." Antonakos is a huge supporter of arts and culture. "As our community grows we need to invest more in our arts and culture programs, which will enhance the overall quali-

ty of life for residents," he said. "Regardless of economic development, the arts and culture scene is good for the community," according to Lee. "We need to promote our local musicians and artists." "I enjoy all aspects of the arts (musical productions, theatre, museums and more)," Black stressed. "Council must continue to support the arts." "The thriving arts contribute to the quality of life for all residents," he said. (Craig) Rogers believes there is "a wealth of cultural diversity in Carleton Place." "We should make everyone welcome," he said. Official plan Candidates were asked: If elected, how would you ensure the Official Plan is followed for proposed developments, particularly regarding high density in the downtown area? "The biggest thing you need to look at is how does it fit into the neighbourhood, not just density but traffic, structure and height," Redmond said. "It is a complicated question." "I do believe consultation with the surrounding neighbours needs to be done," he added. "I think we need more open communication about where we want to go with redevelopment in Carleton Place." Antonakos believes the Official Plan needs to be reviewed in the next term of council. "When we are discussing property in the down-

EVELYN HARFORD Column

Another municipal election is upon us. It's a time when you get to have your say about who you want to represent you on your town or township's council. On average, municipal election voter turnout tends to be lower than the turnout for federal or provincial elections. According to Elections Canada, 66.1 per cent of people voted in the 2015 federal election - the highest turnout since 1993. Fiftyeight per cent voted in the 2018 provincial election held earlier this year. Now compare those numbers with the average voter turnout across Ontario, reported by the Association of Municipalities Ontario, in the last municipal election held in 2014, where only 43.12 per cent of voters in Ontario showed up at the polls. In Lanark County, Smiths Falls and Mississippi Mills had the highest voter turn out during the last municipal election both seeing 53 per cent of their electorate casting a ballot. The lowest voter turnout was observed in Beckwith, where only 23 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot. To me, this is backwards. Arguably, municipal councillors and mayors have the most direct impact on you in your day-today life. If you're frustrated

about pot holes, a certain bridge not being repaired, or concerned about the cleanliness of your local park - all issues within the purview of your municipality - can be brought to your local council. While municipal politics might light up social media after issues from meetings have been reported by various media outlets, not many people seem interested to come out and sit in the council chambers while contentious issues are being discussed. Watching the meetings broadcast on television is also a good way to understand what's going within in your municipality's council. Being an informed voter is important. As someone who sits at town council and committee meetings each and every week, there is nothing better than watching your elected officials debate inperson to help you understand who you've elected to represent you, and whether or not they actually speak to your values. Many people will gripe online (and in person) about what's going on in their municipality, but how many of them will actually vote? If you don't vote, you don't have a right to complain. Many municipalities now offer the convenience of telephone and Internet voting. If you've got time to check your email or Facebook, or call up a friend, you've got time to vote. Monday, Oct. 22, is your chance to tell your elected officials what you think. If you haven't registered to vote, please do. You live in a democracy. This is your chance to tell your current, and prospective elected officials, what you think of them. Evelyn Harford is a reporter with the Smiths Falls Record News.

WHO WE ARE LETTERS & COMMENTARY ONTARIO NEEDS TO ACT NOW ON CLIMATE CRISIS DEAR EDITOR:

Ninety-one scientists from 40 countries recently released papers further warning about our planet's trajectory toward a climate crisis as soon as 2040. The U.N. report is based on approximately 6,000 studies and its conclusion is dire. These predicted - as opposed to assumed - planet-altering life results are only 22 years away. These are not theories that may come about in some unforeseen distant future. We are only seeing and experiencing the opening acts; the appetizer. Meanwhile, in Ontario, Premier Doug Ford argues that a price on carbon contributing pollutants is just a tax that does nothing to combat the contributions that steer us directly toward droughts, fires, floods, crop failures and eventual starvation, and, huge numbers of climate refu-

gees that will be the results. It wouldn't be so potentially damaging to our future if Ford and his supporters had a workable, sensible alternative course of action before they publicly trash and dispose of any existing ideas. And responding on gut feelings or hunches with the stakes being so high, is not acceptable from any high-ranking politician. And, if his negative message is not enough in Ontario, like a zealot on pep-pills, he is crusading his beliefs to like-minded Canadian politicians. Ford is against any seemingly sensible actions that may help to mitigate, lessen, or delay what scientific findings have concluded, and in doing so, is sabotaging Canada's commitment to the 2015 Paris Accord. This leaves me wondering, if, he has truly seen the light, or, if he has been blinded by the light. His message and policies have been recently reflected in the lower price of gasoline, which

has dropped to about $1.16 per litre and, in a buck-abeer. I hope this does not encourage more people to run out and buy more, and bigger, gas-guzzling vehicles from SUVs and earth-shaking pickups in which to drive to the local supermarket for that loaf of bread and to that beer store for that elusive buck-a-beer; this will only speed-up the rendezvous with calamity. Ford's actions are proof of what occurs when one decides to forgo suppleness in one's thinking for more rigid, simpler, and less complicated thoughts that are easier to sell. As the old line goes, "you can pay me now, or, you can pay later" with heavy interest.

from Lanark County, will be put in place along Graham Street (County Road 29) at the Waba Road/Elizabeth Street intersection, as well as at the Jeanie Street intersection. According to a report by Guy Bourgon, director of roads and public works, those two intersections were highlighted as high priorities for crossovers by the municipality's active transportation advisory committee (ATAC) due to their busy nature. "The ATAC has prioritized both of these crossings due to the high volume of pedestrian traffic desiring to cross at each location to reach destinations, with the Jeanie crossing serving the nearby (Pakenham Public) school and arena, and the Waba intersection being the principal intersection in the village of Pakenham's downtown core," he stated in his report. The discussion at the Oct. 2 meeting followed a public community walkabout Sept. 26 where ATAC members and residents had the opportunity to gather more information. The crossovers will be similar to the Bridge Street pedestrian crossover at Veterans Memorial Walkway in Almonte, but will also feature bump-outs to narrow the street to just two travel lanes instead of two travel lanes and two parking lanes, stated Bourgon's report, that also included a

The bump-outs, a traffic calming measure which increase visibility of people to motorists, also cut down the crossing distance for pedestrians. Mayor Shaun McLaughlin questioned how much consultation was done with Pakenham business owners. "The walkabout was advertised," Bourgon replied, noting no concerns were brought forward by residents or businesses. "

TARA GESNER tgesner@metroland.com LifeLabs celebrated the opening of its patient service centre in Carleton Place with a traditional ribbon cutting ceremony on Sept. 28. LifeLabs, located in The Mews of Carleton Place, 48 Lansdowne Ave., provides laboratory testing services to patients and health care providers. Carleton Place Mayor Louis Antonakos and Coun. Sean Redmond attended the ribbon cutting, along with representatives from LifeLabs and the local chamber of commerce. "I cannot begin to tell you how delighted LifeLabs is to bring LifeLabs to Carleton Place," Chris Carson stated. Carson is the senior vice president of partner relations at LifeLabs. "This is a community we have been hoping to serve," Carson continued, and "to finally have the opportunity to do so ... thank you to everybody for their support." With a handful of doc-

tors' offices and a pharmacy in proximity to LifeLabs, he called the area "a bit of a hub." Carson offered special thanks to Nadav Scheinbach of TGS Asset Management Group, a real estate company specializing in the ownership and asset management of commercial properties. TGS Asset Management Group owns The Mews of Carleton Place. LifeLabs opened its doors in Carleton Place on Sept. 17. "We are delighted to be underway now for a couple of weeks, and we are looking forward to a long future here," Carson stressed. He thanked the team at LifeLabs "for making this happen ... for serving patients." Antonakos also acknowledged Nadav, along with his father, Shlomo Scheinbach. "I am impressed ... they are always thinking about the needs of the community," the mayor said. "I do not think it is any secret this location has re-

"I want to personally thank you for being patient, waiting for this opportunity to come to Carleton Place," Antonakos added. "Not only serving our residents within our municipal boundary but in the areas just outside."

Carleton Place is growing, and with growth comes the need for added services and businesses. "This is just the right fit for our town," Antonakos stated. "We are just so thankful you worked with this wonderful family and chose our beautiful community ... it worked the way it was supposed to work." The mayor wished LifeLabs much success. LifeLabs in Carleton Place is open Monday to Fri-

day from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. According to Cynthia Persaud, a supervisor at LifeLabs, the patient service centre in Carleton Place has two full-time employees, with Persaud visiting the site once a week. Services at LifeLabs include: a broad range of community laboratory tests; national access to highly specialized clinical tests; laboratory testing and management for hospitals;

and professional health services for employers, insurers and government agencies. "We perform genetic testing and blood testing, and we do electrocardiograms (ECGs) and Holter monitoring," Persaud noted. Employees at LifeLabs are also trained in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). For ASD patients, certain sensitivities are involved. As a result, care is customized, making them comfortable having their blood taken, etc. LifeLabs will soon offer online appointment booking as well as results, and at the end of November, the company will offer Save My Spot, with individuals using a web app to check in without having to be physically present at the patient service centre. "These are just some of the everyday type of innovations we hope to bring to help support health care in this community," Carson said. Festivities on Sept. 28 also included a cake cutting and giveaways, and stopping by to offer best wishes were neighbouring businesses Robillard Hearing Centres and Collins Barrow.

Lanark County Interval House's second stage housing project received a boost Sept. 27 with a $3,000 donation courtesy of Wick Witch Candle &amp; Bath Co. in Merrickville.

MERRICKVILLE BUSINESS SUPPORTS INTERVAL HOUSE ASHLEY KULP akulp@metroland.com Wick Witch Bath & Candle Co.'s coven of mystical supporters recently helped raise $3,000 for Lanark County Interval House (LCIH). The funds were raised through Wick Witch's annual VIP Fall Pre-Launch Party held at their Merrickville location Friday, Sept. 21. All proceeds from

the tickets sold were donated to LCIH. Each year, the business selects a different local charity to benefit from ticket sales. "With a shop that employs all women are our client base being 95 per cent women, we thought it was important to support a cause for women, especially one that is so vital and underfunded," noted Wick Witch owner Lianne KulpAultman.

According to LCIH public education co-ordinator Brianne Luckasavitch, the funds will be put toward the organization's second stage housing project in Carleton Place, which kicked off in 2017 with the donation of a property by Tiree/Duncan McNaughton. The second stage housing model allows abused women and their See DONATION, page 16

outs). The municipality has requested a portion of the funding ($60,000) from Lanark County and the remaining would come from the 2019 ATAC budget. The project will only proceed with county funding. Pakenham ward Coun. Denzil Ferguson had some concerns over difficulty the bump-outs could cause for plowing. "The director (of roads and public works) and I have had significant discussion in reference to this. I guess my question is, do we have any other examples of this on a county road? ... Pakenham is a bit unique. Yes, we're on a county road and I appreciate the need to slow traffic and calm it, but I'm wondering about the impact

they (crossovers) will have on that and also with plowing?" Bourgon noted he's consulted with the county's director of public works, Terry McCann, on the design. "They've seen it and provided their input ... we modified with respect to what they wanted to ensure plowing and winter opportunities continue to be done properly. Terry, the director of public works for the county, has reviewed it, given it his blessing and has no issue with it." Bourgon said McCann

will be putting the project into the county's public works budget. Coun. John Edwards wondered if the $70,000 figure was the complete ATAC budget for 2019 "and then some?" "Yes. What we're planning on doing is carrying forward unused funds from the Sadler project into the 2019 budget as well as matching the funds that were provided by council in 2018 to 2019, so that will bring up the ask for the ATAC to a total of $70,000, but the new ask is still $59,000," Bourgon stated.

children to move on from a first stage or crisis shelter and into affordable housing for up to a year. Luckasavitch said Interval House is tackling

the project on its own and in addition to Tiree's support, the Rotary Club of Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills has committed $25,000 over five years and the Town of Carleton Place pledged $10,000. The orga-

nization has also secured a $104,500 Ontario Trillium Foundation grant to help with renovations. "We have corporate sponsors and support from the community. There's no government funding at all

to it," she explained. " ... It's pieces like this (Wick Witch donation) that are really helping for that housing." Local businesses and organizations have also taken on the sponsorship

of furnishing units. "A lot are naming their unit after people they know that have been in abusive relationships," Luckasavitch stated. "After a year, when the women leave and transition out,

they get to take the dishes, the sheets, everything and so we'll furnish the units again." Occupancy is expected to take place this fall. - With files from Tara Gesner

LOCAL TALENT, GREAT FOOD AT UNION HALL OCT. 27 Mark your calendars for Saturday, Oct. 27 for the 15th annual Union Hall Potluck and Talent Night. Everyone is invited to join neighbours and friends for a potluck supper, followed by an entertaining

and often hilarious display of local talent. Bring along your tastiest main course, salad or dessert, and your own dishes and cutlery, so we can avoid the use of disposables. Dinner begins

promptly at 6 p.m. and the show begins about 7:30 p.m. Admission is free, but donations for the upkeep of the hall are always welcome. It's not too late to get a place on the program.

Contact Les Humphreys at 613-256-2498 or leshum@magma.ca for more information. Early arrivals at the hall may notice a new external mural by Laurel Cook, featuring the Rose-

dale Cheese Factory. It is hoped that some of our guests that evening may be able to shed a light on some of the more humourous goings on at that establishment. Union Hall, situated at

1984 Wolf Grove Road at the corner of Tatlock Road, has been serving the neighbourhood for more than 150 years. The hall is maintained by the local community with the support of the Municipality of Mississippi Mills. Submitted by Les Humphreys, Union Hall publicity

Ashley Kulp/Metroland (Left) The Mississippi Mills Youth Centre held an artisan pizza fundraiser at the community friendship oven at the Almonte branch of the Mississippi Mills Public Library Oct. 6. The event coincided with the final weigh-in for the Great Veggie Grow-Off and was featured as a lunch stop for the Crown & Pumpkin Studio Tour, taking place in Almonte and Clayton over Thanksgiving weekend. Pictured, volunteer Sean MacKenzie, the mason who helped construct the oven, passes over a piping hot pizza to MMYC vice-chair Mary Ann Murray. (Right) Mississippi Mills Youth Centre program co-ordinator Sara Fortin carefully shapes some pizza dough. The tomatoes used to make homemade sauce were grown in the MMYC's garden beds at their 134 Main Street East location. Neighbourhood Tomato Community Gardens helped the centre create

the beds in 2017. "A lady came in and helped the youth learn how to make dough as well," Murray said. "So we had 96 balls of dough in our fridge waiting to be used." The basil which guests

were invited to sprinkle atop their finished pies, was also grown in the youth centre gardens. Local youth have a vested interest in the community friendship oven as well, as many helped lay its

foundation. "The youth were some of the builders who did a lot of the lifting. When they debuted the oven, the youth centre made pizzas to celebrate as well," Murray explained. "Our youth are giving and building the

community in so many ways. We had so much fun when we were building this." All proceeds from the artisan pizza fundraiser went to support the youth centre's programming and activities.

On the recent chilly Thanksgiving weekend, pizza instead of turkey, was on the menu at the Almonte community friendship oven. On Oct. 6, the Mississippi Mills Youth Centre (MMYC) held its first artisan pizza fundraiser at the oven site on the grounds of the Almonte branch of the Mississippi Mills Public Library. The event coincided with the final weigh-in for The Great Veggie Grow-Off initiative and served as a lunch stop on the Crown and Pumpkin Studio Tour. According to MMYC vice-chair Mary Ann Murray, the fundraiser was "a wonderful opportunity with the Crown and Pumpkin tour, which features and profiles the artisans and creativity of the community and surrounding areas." "It's our first foray into this (fundraiser)," she added. The community friendship oven officially opened in June after Jeff Mills of the Neighbourhood Tomato Community Gardens group raised the concept in 2015. Its purpose is to encourage healthy eating, food knowledge and a social cooking collective. It has already been the site of several community celebrations and fundraisers. It cost approximately $10,000 to build, which came exclusively from community donations and partnerships. No municipal funding was used. Sean McKenzie of Dominion Masonry headed up construction on the oven, a brick structure which sits on a gravel surround. McKenzie was on site Oct. 6 cooking up pizzas in the oven, that reached a toasty 900 degrees. Murray, who was involved in the community oven project, said it's "a success story with the whole seed to table movement." Much of the ingredients for the classic margherita pizzas were grown or made by the youth themselves.

A man sustained serious but non lifethreatening injuries after the small plane he was piloting crashed near a house on Old Almonte Road on Tuesday, Oct. 16, Ottawa Paramedics report. As the plane landed, it took out wires, slightly damaging a house before finishing its course in a ditch. The paramedics' communication centre received the call at 8:31 a.m. and they say they responded to the scene with Ottawa Police and Ottawa Fire. The lone occupant of the airplane sustained a head injury and was stabilized on scene by paramedics. He was then transported to an awaiting Ornge helicopter near the 417 and Carp Road. He was taken to the Trauma Centre in serious but stable condition.

Desmond Devoy/Metroland Hugh Colton, organizer of the Build a Mountain of Food campaign, describes some of the full-page ads that will soon be appearing in newspapers across the county to showcase the upcoming food drive, during the campaign kick off at the Perth Best Western Plus hotel on Tuesday, Oct. 9.

BUILD A MOUNTAIN OF FOOD HOPES TO TOP 1 MILLION POUNDS THIS YEAR DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com If all goes according to plan, Hugh Colton hopes that this year's Build a Mountain of Food campaign will top the 1 million pound

mark for food collected over the past 11 years. Colton, who has organized the campaign since it began in Perth in 2007, held his annual campaign kick-off at the Perth Best Western Plus hotel on Tuesday, Oct. 9.

Coming just the day after Thanksgiving, with turkey left-overs still jamming fridges everywhere, Colton joked that "it seems like I just shut this file and it's open again!" Food bank representatives mingled with supermarket own-

ers, as Colton revealed that 213,732 lbs. of food were collected last year, along with $162,174.68 in cash. If those trends continue, that would be enough to put the overall total collected since 2007 over the one million lb. mark, which currently stands at 933,949 lbs. of food, and $540,201.33 in cash. (Comparatively, 3,200 lbs. of food and $1,400 in cash was collected in 2007, when the campaign just hit Perth, before expanding in later years across

Derek Dunn/Metroland Participants in annual RE/MAX Affiliates Charity Run/Walk fundraiser for Lanark County Interval House take off from the start line on Oct. 13. More than 50 people registered for the event, which kicked off at the end of McNeely Avenue in Carleton Place and followed the Beckwith Trail.

Lanark County Ambulances Save Lives F.A.S.T. By Travis Mellema, Deputy Chief Lanark County Paramedic Service

To increase awareness of the symptoms associated with strokes, the Lanark County Paramedic Service has partnered with the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada to raise awareness about strokes. There are now F.A.S.T. decals on the sides of Lanark County ambulances.

insideottawavalley.com

F.A.S.T. is the acronym that helps people to remember the major signs of strokes: Face – is it drooping? Arms – can you raise both? Speech – is it slurred or jumbled? Time – to call 9-1-1 right away Stroke is a medical emergency. The ability to recognize the FAST signs of stroke and act fast by calling 9-1-1 can mean the difference between life and death - or the difference between a full recovery and lasting disability.

www.almontegeneral.com

Placing the new F.A.S.T. decals on all Lanark County ambulances also serves as a reminder that calling an ambulance is of the utmost importance if you think someone is having a stroke. Every year, many people in Lanark County attempt to drive a suspected stroke victim to the nearest hospital. While this is well meaning, it amounts to delays in getting the patient to a designated stroke centre. getti ery minute after a stroke, 1.9 million brain cells die, and Eve the e results of a long delay can be catastrophic. Early stroke maanagement is a complex process and is best handled by edical professionals. In 2016 in Lanark County, only 50% me of aall patients who needed acute stroke care arrived at the des esignated stroke centres by ambulance from the community. The e provincial average is 59%. aramedics can rapidly assess patients and decide which hospital Param as the most appropriate facilities for the patient’s condition. has The hey can even pre-notify the hospital to ensure that the patient has as immediate access to urgent imaging, diagnosis, and tre eatment. With the help of the Heart and Stroke Foundation, Lan anark County continues to increase public awareness of the signs of a stroke, stressing the importance of calling 9-1-1 F.A.S.T.

the county, and beyond.) "The amount of generosity from your communities is incredible," said Colton. He called the pre-packaged bags of food people could pick up to donate to the food bank a " great" idea, and commended supermarkets for marking sure that they are "usually well displayed." The Build a Mountain float is usually seen outand-about at several area county Santa Claus parades. On Thanksgiving Day, Colton was out giving the once-over to make sure that they are ready for parade days. "We will be doing as many parades as we can, logistically," he said. The parades he has penciled in on his calendar so far are: • Carleton Place Santa Claus Parade, Saturday, Nov. 24.

• Perth and Athens Santa Claus Parades, Saturday, Dec. 1. • Smiths Falls Santa Claus Parade, Saturday, Dec. 8. Plus, a community night is planned for Portland on Friday, Dec. 14. Colton and the Build a Mountain of Food team are also expecting to attend the CP Holiday Train when it hits Merrickville, Smiths Falls, and Perth Wednesday, Nov. 28. "The majority of people have been good," said Colton, in giving out some advice. Many people by now "know about Build a Mountain." The Food Blitz dates and locations are as follows: • Saturday, Nov. 10: Almonte, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Patrice's Your Independent Grocer (in support of the Lanark County Food Bank The Hunger Stop). • Saturday, Nov. 10: Carleton Place, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Mitchell's Your Indepen-

dent Grocer, FreshCo, and Giant Tiger (in support for the Lanark County Food Bank - The Hunger Stop.) • Saturday, Nov. 17: Perth, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Metro Perth, Barnabe's Your Independent Grocer, Foodsmiths, and Giant Tiger (in support of The Perth Good Food Bank at The Table Community Food Centre.) • Saturday, Nov. 17: Lanark, 9 a.m. to noon, at the Lanark Highlands Food Pantry and Thrift Store (in support of the Lanark food bank). • Saturday, Nov. 24: Smiths Falls, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Andress' Your Independent Grocer, Food Basics, The Garden Market, and Giant Tiger (in support of the Smiths Falls Community Food Bank). • Saturday, Dec. 1: Westport, 9 a.m. to noon, at Kudrinko's (in support of the Westport Food Bank). • Saturday, Dec. 1: Elgin, 1

to 4 p.m., at Gordanier Freshmart (in support of the Elgin Food Bank). • Saturday, Dec. 8: Portland, 9 a.m. to noon, at the Portland LCBO and Royal Bank (in support of the Portland Food Bank). • Saturday, Dec. 8: Merrickville, 1 to 4 p.m., at the Merrickville Food Market (in support of the Merrickville Lions' Club's Christmas food hamper campaign). • Saturday, Dec. 15: Athens, 9 a.m. to noon, at the Athens Fresh Market (in support of the Athens Food Bank). • Saturday, Dec. 15: Delta, 1to 4 p.m., at the Delta Country Market (in support of the Delta Food Bank). A new addition to the Lanark village stop will be a visit by Serendipity Farm Alpacas and Llamas and Store, who "will be on site, (so) bring your family, and ride one." On a more serious note,

THE ISSUE: FOOD BANKS

R0013021901

OPINION

MARY COOK RECALLS HOW SALES DRIED UP AFTER JUST 1 WEEK MARY COOK Column

There was no reason in the world, Mother thought, that she couldn't add a bit more cash to her egg money. Although it was all called "egg money," it could come from selling drawn chickens, butter or sticky buns, fresh vegetables when our garden was flourishing in the summer time, and of course, eggs. But fall had settled in, and Mother was anxious

to make up for the loss of vegetable sales when she went door to door every Saturday through the streets of Renfrew. And she knew just how she was going to do it too. Aunt Bertha Thom on our next farm had showed Mother how to make homemade soap, and she could see no reason why she couldn't add these little bars to her peddling door to door. She was sure the housewives of Renfrew would be delighted. Of course, she had to perfect the soap-making first. She was new at the job, and we five kids thought Mother needed a lot more practice before she could add homemade soap to her list. We stayed well away from her when she was

putting everything together. We saw her use Gillett's Lye, which took our breath away if we came within five feet of it, and my sister Audrey was sure she would see smoke coming out of the tin when Mother opened it. Water was boiled, and rendered fat got its way into the mix too. Mother even bought a fresh lemon and added its juice as well. As soon as we tried it with our Saturday night bath, we knew Mother had a lot to learn. For some reason, bits of the lye hadn't melted, and we kids ended up with scratches all over our bodies. We begged Mother to let us use the one and only bar of Ivory soap we had on the farm, and was supposed to be used for company. She

said the next batch she would make would be vastly improved, and the bar of Ivory was wrapped up and put away, and whether we liked it or not, we had to get used to the homemade lye soap! Mother was sure the next batch would be better. She said she learned that the water had to be at a rolling boil when poured onto the lye, and she said two lemons were better than one. Father was sure Mother was losing money on the whole idea. Gillett's Lye wasn't cheap, and buying fresh lemons was a sheer luxury. But Mother said she was sure selling the little bars at 15 cents apiece would more than pay for the money she spent making the soap.

And we were back to the big yellow bar with no name that came from Briscoe's General Store, and which sat in a saucer by the wash basin in the kitchen, used to wash up before we could put a crumb of food in our mouths. The homemade lye soap was never mentioned again. Interested in an electronic version of Mary's books?

MOTHER'S ATTEMPT AT PRODUCING HOMEMADE SOAP SHORT-LIVED

Well, that first Saturday, Mother's customers seemed delighted to have a bar of freshly made soap right off the farm, and it didn't take long to empty the basket she had packed the soap in. She was so excited, she went right over to Scott's Hardware and bought not one, but two tins of Gillett's Lye! Well, the next Saturday, soap sales slowed down to a crawl. Every customer who had bought the week before complained about the bits and pieces of unmelted lye which left scratch marks all over the user's body. "We'll still buy your eggs, chickens and buns, but we'll pass on the homemade soap, if you don't mind," was what we heard at every house where we had sold the soap the week before. Well, much to our relief, Mother gave up on the homemade lye soap. The bar of Ivory came out on Saturday night, sparingly used for our tub baths, and then wrapped and put away for another week.

OPINION

JEFF MAGUIRE WONDERS WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? JEFF MAGUIRE Column

Donald Trump has and is making his mark on the position of United States' president although I think it's fair to say most Americans and most interested people around the world believe it's a black mark. As a career journalist my interest lies mainly in Trump's almost daily references to "fake news." I certainly believe there is such a thing. Just watch the two major U.S. television news networks. I

think most of you will very quickly determine what is fake and what is real in terms of their coverage! In Trump's case I believe "fake news" refers to anyone who writes or broadcasts anything that is contrary to his bleatings (his daily Twitter tirades for example) or those who comment on what passes for his government's policies. Yes, lots of fake news for sure! There's little doubt that in the midst of what some are calling "the Trump era" truth is taking a severe beating. At the very least a lot of people - and I'm not only referring to politicians - are being rather economical with the truth these days. Fact checking has become a daily part of this unfolding drama. The number of factual "errors" Trump has made in two years number in the thousands.

Fake news indeed! This is a very tough time to be a journalist, especially in the U.S. where Trump, his supporters and others are whipping people into a frenzy by suggesting that the media is "the real enemy of the people." Threats made against media members and organizations are increasing exponentially. For example, a really scary threat made against the Boston Globe newspaper recently. That led to a dramatic police raid on a home in California. A man now faces multiple charges in the case. I won't only pick on the U.S. here. Because the truth is that journalists and a free press are under attack worldwide. Sadly, the global map of countries and places where reporters are free to report the news without interference is shrinking rapidly. There isn't a week that

passes without more bad news in this regard. Fortunately, it appears North American press freedom won't be strangled as easily as it has been in so many other countries. This issue has multiple personalities and what is happening south of the border has clearly rubbed off on Canada. My concern is not so much that we are being lied to in many instances but rather that we aren't receiving all of the information we should be getting. "The whole truth and nothing but the truth" in other words! For example, there has been a lot written recently about why, in so many cases, the police in this country (and elsewhere) withhold information, de-

lay releasing details in certain cases or don't release some things at all. It's especially true if the incidents involve the police themselves. The tragic murders of two police officers and two civilians in a shooting in the New Brunswick capital of Fredericton is a recent case in point. Why, for example, did it take so long for police to release even the number of victims involved in that terribly sad event? I'm only scratching the surface by referring to the

Fredericton shooting case. There is so much more involved in Canada and other developed countries with respect to this situation in general. Fake news, or no news, has become a subject of real concern! Jeff Maguire is a career journalist who lives in Carleton Place, Ont.

LANARK COUNTY BR+E PROJECT NEEDS VOLUNTEERS Lanark County, in partnership with Valley Heartland Community Futures Development Corporation (CFDC), is delivering a Business Retention and Expansion (BR+E) project to support and strengthen local business across Lanark County - and volunteers are needed! The BR+E project is an actionoriented, community-based and volunteer-driven process that includes confidential face-to-face interviews/surveys by volunteers with businesses to address any issues/opportunities for that business, as well as data collection and action planning. Overall, successful BR+E programs include having commitment, buy-in and engagement from the community, local businesses, the municipalities, partners and service providers, says Stacie Lloyd, regional economic development officer, Valley Heartland CFDC. Wellington County is an example of a BR+E success story. "As a result of our 2014 and 2016 BR+E surveys, we have been able to create programs that have a direct and positive impact on our busi-

ers," says Mandy Jones, economic development officer, County of Wellington. "The BR+E project needs support and participation from all of

us to create a 'Made in Lanark County' plan that will strategically support businesses across the county," says Lanark County Warden John Fenik (Perth Mayor).

"Volunteers are the heart of the BR+E project and having them do business visits/surveys visibly demonstrates to the business community how much they are valued," says Teri Devine, BR+E co-ordinator, Valley Heartland CFDC. Volunteer recruitment is continuing, with a goal of having more than 60 volunteer visitors by November 2018, adding to the current complement of 25. Volunteers are provided training, get to support local business, achieve and see the results of their effort, gain personal experience and build networks and skills. If you are interested in volunteering to conduct face-to-face confidential interviews/surveys with local businesses or if your business would like to participate in an interview/survey, please contact Teri Devine, BR+E co-ordinator, at 613-283-7002 ext. 111, 613207-5940 or by email at bre@valleycfdc.com.

AWINNING RAFFLE forLocalHealthCare! The Car or Ca$h for Health Care in Your Community raffle wrapped-up last week with the winner, Jordan Waito choosing to take the 1967 Pontiac Firebird convertible as his prize. Organizers are still spinning with excitement with the announcement of the funds raised through this inaugural initiative.

Due to the wonderful generosity of Bean Chevrolet Buick GMC in donating the car in full to both the Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital (CPDMH) Foundation and the Almonte General Hospital & Fairview Manor (AGH-FVM) Foundation, a grand net

total of $100,000 was raised for local health care! Split evenly to $50,000 for each hospital, this amazing accomplishment took an army of volunteers from across both communities.

“We count on community support through our foundations to put the best tools in the hands of our caring and dedicated physicians and staff” said Mary Wilson Trider, President and CEO of both the Almonte General Hospital and the Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital. “These funds will help each hospital purchase some urgently needed equipment.” Robyn Arseneau, Executive Director of the CPDMH Foundation, added “we are so very appreciative to Bean Chevrolet Buick GMC and to everyone who supported this raffle; both in those who bought tickets and to everyone who helped promote and sell tickets at community and regional events, fairs and car shows. Thank you for making this possible!” Al Roberts, Managing Director of AGH-FVM Foundation (left) with Robyn Arseneau, Executive Director of CPDMH Foundation (far right) with Keith Bean, owner and president of Bean Chevrolet Buick GMC in Carleton Place.

The family of the late Doris Blackburn would like to thank everyone who supported us during this very sad time. The wonderful staff at Orchard View enveloped Mom and us with caring and compassion during her journey with Dementia. Many thanks to the staff at Barker’s Funeral Home for their guidance and assistance. Mom’s Celebration of Life at St James Anglican Church was a heartfelt and loving tribute with the assistance of many people including The Ven. Brian Kauk, The Rev. Canon David Andrew, Choir Director Ian Guenette and the choir, and our “church family” members. The luncheon and reception afterwards was beautiful due to all the special touches from St. James “kitchen crew”. Thanks to family, friends and former teaching colleagues for attending Mom’s visitation and the many generous donations to the Alzheimers Society and UCDSB Champions for Kids Foundation. All the kind words, caring gestures and hugs have made us realize even more how lucky we were to have her and how much we will miss her.

We would like to thank our family and friends for helping us celebrate our 65th Wedding Anniversary. Many thanks to those that helped supply a lovely lunch. We mustn’t forget to mention the many relations that came from quite a distance to be with us on this important occasion. Some came from Cambridge, Brampton, Ottawa, Newmarket, Guelph, Niagara Falls and Cornwall. So many of our good friends and neighbours took the time to come and wish us well. Many thanks to Father McNally for saying the Mass for our intention and presenting us with the certificate from the Pope. Also for coming out to have a visit with us and give us His Blessing. If we have missed anyone it is not intentional and once again thank you to everyone that visited us, gave cards, sent cards and gifts and phoned. Its a day we won’t forget for as long as we are here.

Coventry, England April 05, 1921-September 30, 2018 It is with profound sadness and a modicum of relief that we announce Norma’s passing at Ottawa, in the early morning hours of September 30th, 2018, finally at peace. She will be achingly missed by Jack, her devoted and loving husband of 74 years, her son Peter (Karen, grandsons Benjamin and Luke), daughter Lois (Richard and family), grandchildren Megan (Kevin, great granddaughter Abigail Zelia), Peter (great grandson Garrett) and Tyler (Sara, twin great granddaughters Elle and Parker), predeceased by daughter Linda Jeanne (October 03, 2012). Norma set out on her amazing journey of life in Coventry, England. She joined the WAAF (Women’s Auxiliary Air Force) during WWII where she met her RCAF war hero and soon to be husband Jack. Norma, as many war brides did, came to Canada ready to continue her married life through years of military and diplomatic service with postings across the country and around the world including: Accra, Ghana, Nairobi, Kenya, New Delhi, India and France where they both proudly represented Canada. Over her many years of travel with Jack, Norma thrived as a wife, home maker and social director par excellence! Her artistic ability was and is exemplified in many projects completed over the years, represented by pastel, oil and acrylic paintings, award winning poetry, outstandingly complex knitted and crocheted sweaters and blankets, delicious soups (in which Dad would inevitably get the only bone to be found in the pot!!), decadent traditional English Christmas pudding and cakes. She left us an incredible legacy of memories of her wicked sense of humour, joy of fishing, golfing, tennis and escapades in Naples, Florida, walks along the beach in Mombasa and so much more. Norma also dedicated over 30 years of volunteering by knitting hats and booties for newborns and other duties as needed at the Naples Hospital. Our warmest thanks to the ladies and gentlemen PSWs and nurses from G2N and R2S at the Perley Rideau for their understanding, guidance and patience. Norma’s memorial will be set for a later date.

Rudy Lepage Oct. 15, 1941-Oct 15, 1998 In Loving memory, on the 20th Anniversary of our Dad’s passing. Happy Birthday Dad xoxo He never looked for praises He was never one to boast He just went on quietly working For the ones he loved the most. His dreams were seldom spoken His wants were very few And most of the time his worries Went unspoken too. He was there....A firm foundation Through all our storms of life A sturdy hand to hold on to In times of stress and strife. A true friend we could turn to When times were good or bad One of our greatest blessings Was the man we call Dad. Les, Norm, Rick, Debbie, Darlene (Joan)

DUBE, Michel (Mike) – In loving memory of a dear husband, father and papa who left us October 9th, 2015. You’ve just walked ahead of us And we’ve got to understand. That we must release the ones we love And let go of their hand. Everyday you’re missed so much We wish we could see your smile. And once more feel your touch Even if it’s for just a while. Yes, you’ve just walked ahead of us But, Don’t worry we’ll be O’Kay Because now and then we swear We see your smile come our way. In our hearts we know Jesus has the answer We know you believed in him so And that’s why we can give the greatest gift, the gift of letting go. Until we meet again Always remembered, sadly missed and loved by his wife Patsy, his children and grandchildren

This week's featured pets Annabelle

Hi, I am Annabelle. I've been sent to Perth Pet Valu to be adopted. I love it here; they have good food and cat trees and comfy cat beds. I hope you get me one when you come to adopt me. It has been busy in the store; kittens come and kittens go, but I am still here. Please look at me, too. I had five babies of my own, but they've found homes already. It's my turn, don't you think? See you soon. Love, Annabelle. Ulyss Hi, I am Ulyss. My previous family had to surrender me because of serious health reasons. That was in April. It took a long time to get over that. I missed them a lot. I've been adjusting at LAWS and enjoyed being with other cats, but whenever people came to

Annabelle

adopt I was a little shy to meet them, so I was overlooked over and over and over again. They've sent me to Carleton Place's Natural Pet Foods at 61 Bridge St. I hope someone sees this message and comes to meet me. I am truly a nice boy, with fantastic green

eyes and a lovely, shiny, black coat. Would you please take a chance on me? I'd love to be in a true forever home again. Hugs, Ulyss. Felix Hi, my name is Felix, and I am a handsome orange tabby boy. I am very friendly. I am just getting

over a cold, but when you read this I should be ready to come home with you. Ralph Ralph was found outside the shelter. He was fed for a while, then he was live trapped. Initially hissing and scared, he's now following everyone who gives him attention. He's hand-

some, friendly and ready for his forever home. Ralph is available in Carleton Place at Natural Pet Foods. Follow us at facebook.com/lanarkanimals and/or lanarkanimals.ca. Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS) is at 253 Glenview Rd., Smiths Falls.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Information that seems suspect on the surface may turn out to be much more if you’re willing to dig a little deeper, Aries. Do not discount anything right away.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Don’t let a minor setback derail all of the plans you have been working on for so long, Leo. This can be easily remedied with the right people offering their support.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Take a break this week and reconnect with some of the fun activities that you used to do to amuse yourself, Sagittarius. Think like a kid and go to a zoo, aquarium or park.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, if faced with a few different scenarios, do not immediately pick the path of least resistance. Sometimes the best reward is earned with some sweat equity.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, you do not need an engraved invitation to attend an event that could put you in a position of power and influence. Walk into the party with flair and confidence.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, you’re on the cusp of mastering a skill you have been honing for awhile. Use an opportunity this week to celebrate your hard-earned success.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, when social engagements seem to be slim pickings, you may have to broaden your social circle just a bit. Try putting a toe into new waters for a change of scenery.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 When someone seeks your advice you are always willing to give it, Libra. Just do not freely offer unsolicited advice all the time or friends could view it as lecturing.

HOME. SAFE AND SOUND. W

HEN LOOKING FOR A NEW HOME, YOU MAKE a list of must-haves. Will this home suit my lifestyle? Is it in the right location? Two of the most important questions to ask as you begin to narrow down your options are who built it, and how well is it constructed? You owe it to yourself to find out because life is often more comfortable in a professionally designed and well-constructed home. It’s not always easy to determine the skill and dedication of a builder, since much of their craft ends up hidden in the walls and structure of a building. A professional builder is one who cares; who goes the extra mile even when no one else is looking. To them, the details are everything. They see the well-being, comfort, and safety of their clients as a long-term investment. When it comes to comfort and longevity, consider home builders who use concrete as opposed to wood-framed construction. Concrete structures improve building safety by increased resistance to fire, insects, and rot. The structural capability of concrete also allows for large column-free spans. As a result, the builder can offer underground parking, larger spacious dwellings, and high ceilings. Quality of life is improved when residents enjoy not only peace but the freedom to host gatherings of family and friends,

without impacting their neighbours. In the search for your ideal home, be sure to inquire about noise control. Ambient noises can significantly impede your quality of life. They are especially difficult to avoid where wood is used as the primary structural building material. Alternatively, concrete slabs are nearly soundproof. Concrete has one of the best sound attenuation ratings of any construction system and is not prone to expansion and contraction. Say goodbye to creaky floors! Builders must follow the latest safety requirements mandated by the Ontario Building Code. All new apartments have 24/7 monitored smoke alarms, fire suppression sprinkler systems, and audible safety announcements. Some builders go above and beyond code safety to offer additional features. Enhanced security access to the lobby and underground parking garages are becoming popular. A family-run business, Lépine is an example of a builder in Carleton Place who focuses on creating upscale rental communities. Not only do they offer the units and amenities you’re looking for, but a home that will leave you and your family feeling safe and sound.
