DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@metroland.com Fees for Camp Wanago and other Arnprior programs are increasing thanks in large part to the bump in minimum wage to $14 per hour. A report by town treasurer Jennifer Morawiec detailing changes to the user fees and charges bylaw said the new employment standards act will have a "substantial impact" on the operating budget, particularly in the recreation department. It will take longer to reach a balance if it increases to $15. "It's a little over a $10,000 increase," Morawiec told council. "It will take another year or two to catch up to deal with the full impact." Summer day camp fees have gone from $185 per week to $195. l See HIGHER, page 2

The Prior Chest Nuts Dragon Boat Team held a plant and yard sale in Arnprior on Saturday, May 26, raising funds for a special trip in July. Team members, all breast cancer survivors, are heading to Italy to compete at the International Breast Cancer Paddler's Commision (IBCPC) Dragon Boat Festival. Chest Nut Tammy Dusome gets some help from RBC employees Susan Bastien (left) and Jeanette Grant.
The program employs students who are benefiting from the minimum wage increase. Other programs for youths and adults - fitness, dance, ball hockey, yoga, volleyball, baseball, Little People, and others - have increased by $1 to $3. Aquafit classes increased $24 this year, and will go to $191 for 30 classes next year; more for out of town users. However, Arnprior is still among the lowest-cost places to swim in the region.

Baseball diamond fees have decreased slightly to attract more use. On the residential side, when town officials perform marriage ceremonies it will cost $300, up from $250. Marriage licences will remain the same. Both costs remain considerably lower than at nearby municipalities. Mayor David Reid suggested charging out-of-town clients more, considering staff has to do the work on some of the nicest weekends of the year. The cost is less during usual work hours.
There is no change to animal control or cemetery costs. A new false fire alarm fee of $250 kicks in when there are more than two false fire alarms caused by a "controllable factor" within a 12month period. Buildings fees and water/wastewater fees are also going up, the latter by four cents per month each of the next five years starting July 1. Council voted in favour of the increases at the May 28 meeting.

DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@metroland.com He is considered the founder of Arnprior, and easily one of the most philanthropic residents in its 187-year history. So it seems fitting that the Arnprior Regional Health Foundation names a new charitable society after Daniel McLachlin. Foundation executive director Bruce Hill told a group of about 20 people at the Grove Nursing Home that the new society was a
form of "legacy giving" meaning gifts by will or life insurance. Then he introduced archivist Laurie Dougherty, who on one of her last days with Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives, gave a lecture on the lumber merchant and farmer. "I was curious about who this man was," Dougherty said, showing slides along with her speaking notes that in future may be compiled into book form. "His parents came from the west coast of Scotland, a re-
gion known for ferries, seafood, and whisky. So that may tell you something." She said for all practical purposes he is the founding father of Arnprior. McLachlin was born on the Ottawa River, just west of Montreal, in 1810. However, he didn't arrive in sleepy Arnprior with its population of 250 until about 20 years after it was established. There was very little movement until he set up his timber business there. It was also the site of his final home, The Hill, overlooking
the Ottawa River. Arnprior knows it today as the Galilee Centre. The lands on which four churches in town stand, were purchased for $1. That is due to McLachlin's generosity. It is said to have pained him to see a man without work; his empire
building may not have been strictly for glory, but to find work for others as well. Dougherty pointed to several buildings and streets connected to McLachlin, a member of parliament during Canada's formation in 1867. The town's
population was in the thousands when he died, thanks in large part to McLachlin's business sense. His gravestone incorporates Arnprior marble. Dougherty, after 20 years with the library and archives, handed the position over to Emma Carey.

PROVINCIAL ELECTION
LOCAL
NDP candidate joins leader, fellow candidate in Peterborough On June 2, Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke NDP candidate Ethel LaValley met with NDP Leader Andrea Horwath here, along with local NDP candidate Sean Conway. LaValley went to lend support to Conway, who is no relation to the former Renfrew North MPP and who is in a very tight race in Peterborough-Kawartha, a riding that has historically predicted the winners of Ontario
elections repeatedly. "Only Andrea Horwath and the NDP can stop Doug Ford's cuts and privatization," said LaValley, in the wake of Kathleen Wynne's desperate plea for former Liberal voters to return to the fold. "Votes for Liberals do not result in a minority - they result in a Ford majority," she said. Andrea Horwath said, "By asking for a minority,
Kathleen Wynne is asking to hold onto power. People have already said they do not want that." Ethel LaValley has been excited by the feedback she gets on the campaign trail. "Something special is happening in Ontario," she said. "Andrea is inviting everyone to be a part of it. Better health care. More affordability for everyday people. She's saying: join us. Let's get it done. I'm with her."
PCs commit to highway twinning The Ontario PC party is the only party committed to the continued twinning of Highway 17, Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke PC candidate John Yakabuski announced June 4. "This is in stark contrast to the Liberals who have done little on this file in recent years and the New Democrats who have never shown interest for this vital transportation project," says a press release issued the weekend before the June 7 provincial election. "I was shocked when the
Wynne Liberals did not include the further twinning of Highway 17 in their 2017 five-year plan," said Yakabuski. "Since then in the legislature I have called on successive transportation ministers to fast track the next section of divided highway deeper into Renfrew County, only to have the Liberals ignore our local communities time and time again. As for the NDP, I'm not sure they could find Highway 17 on a map, let alone commit to twinning it." The next portion of twin-
,+$)*$& ")((%+,'#!
ning is expected to go from Scheel Drive in McNab/ Braeside to the Town of Renfrew. When Doug Ford came to Renfrew County last month, he committed to making the continued twinning of Highway 17 a priority for his government and a commitment to Highway 17 is a key component of the Ontario PC Plan for the People. "In this election there is only one leader and one party that understands and respects people in rural Ontario,” he concluded.

Jackie Agnew, the provincial Liberal candidate in Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke, is strongly committed to continuing her fight to become the next MPP for the riding. Premier Kathleen Wynne released a statement June 2 in which she conceded that it is highly unlikely that she will continue as premier after the June 7 provincial election and she urged voters to consider the Ontario Liberal party as the only party that can hold the new government accountable to the people. After taking some time to reflect on her decision to run for MPP following Premier Wynne's announcement, Agnew is confident that she is the only person with the skills, dedication and determination to successfully advocate for the needs and values of local voters at Queen's Park. On doorsteps across the riding, the local Liberal campaign has heard that voters want a change in government but at the same time, many are afraid of the consequences of either Doug Ford's Conservatives or Andrea Horwath's NDP taking the reins of the provincial government. Only a strong Liberal MPP can help to prevent the formation of a devastating majority government while, at the same time, standing up to either ideologicallydriven government and fighting tooth-and-nail for local constituents and their families. "Minority governments are often the best form of government for Canadians. For example, it was Lester Pearson's minority Liberal government in 1966 that created the universal health-care system that we now have today.” said Agnew.
Valley OPP investigate break-ins Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers in Arnprior are investigating two recent break-ins. On Tuesday, May 22, between 1 and 3:30 p.m. someone entered a home on John Street South in Arnprior. A window was forced open to allow the thief to reach inside and unlock the back door. Once inside, the thief stole jewelry and sterling silver cutlery. Const. Erin Densmore is investigating. Between May 18 at noon and May 19 at 9 a.m. an unknown suspect broke into a garage Arthur Street, Arnprior, and stole three Makita hand tools valued at approximately $450. It is not believed the garage was locked as there was no sign of forced entry. The Renfrew detachment of the OPP investigated 288 calls for service between Monday, May 21, and Sunday, May 27.
Domestic violence Arnprior and Renfrew officers investigated seven domestic disputes during the past week. One male was charged with assault. No other criminal offences were alleged. If you or someone you know is living in or involved in an abusive relationship, help is available. Contact Bernadette McCann House 24-7 for support, advice or the safety of a shelter, at 1-800267-4930.
The Women's Sexual Assault Centre of Renfrew County is also available 24-7 for information and support at 1-800663-3060. You could also attend the emergency department of any hospital in Renfrew County and ask to speak to a member of the assault response team. In emergencies call 911.
Thefts OPP officers are investigating several reported thefts during the past week, including a theft of a gas case from Irving gas station on Stewart Street in Renfrew, a stolen wallet from a victim while shopping at the mall in Arnprior, a Bell receiver stolen last fall from a home while renovations were ongoing, a stolen debit card in Arnprior, someone stealing food from the cafeteria at a hospital, and a theft of cash from a residence on Jack Crescent in Arnprior.
Impaired driver On Sunday May 27, at approximately 1:30 a.m. OPP officers stopped a motorist on Madawaska Boulevard in Arnprior for several Highway Traffic Act offences. The female driver had been drinking and failed a roadside alcohol-screening test. Following further breath tests at the detachment, a 23year-old female of Renfrew was charged with impaired driving and driving over 80 milligrams (per 100 millilitres of blood). She was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew
on June 20. Const. Jason Golds led the investigation.

Stop Meth Campaign walkers rest in Arnprior before off to Parliament Hill DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@metroland.com A group of 45 walkers took a breather in Arnprior recently before continuing their journey to Parliament Hill. Maureen Wood organized the march - bringing awareness to the ravaging effects crystal meth is having on her community, Island Lake First Nation, near Winnipeg. The indigenous mother and primary school worker sat on bench at the Arnprior Motor Inn on Victoria Day watching kids and some adults chasing and laughing, while others in sunglasses smoked cigarettes next to vans with posters taped to the sides that read 'Stop Meth.' They had endured frostbite and hypothermia, among other challenges during their walk that began on March 28.
"It's just really bad; this crystal meth," Wood said. "People need to know how bad it is. Many communities are too ashamed to admit it. It's awful." Individuals struggling with drug abuse in their lives have stopped the group as it passed through reserves and towns along the way. They've shared their stories with Wood and others. They've walked awhile with them, or started their own Stop Meth campaigns. Andrew Keck is a public health nurse with the County of Renfrew. He said the health unit isn't keeping statistics on crystal meth specifically, but is tracking opioid overdoses; some of which occur when laced with meth or crack. "In the last 52 weeks we've had 54 overdoses at emergency rooms. That's up from 32," he said. "That's a significant increase. They result-

• EDITORIAL •
Get cycling Cycling is a fun and healthy activity. Not only is it a low-cost way to get around, it's also good for the environment. The Ottawa Valley Cycling and Active Transportation Alliance (OVCATA) is an active organization and helpful resource for local cyclists. The group bills itself a voice for cyclists and all active transportation enthusiasts in the Ottawa Valley, advocating for safety and good conditions, bringing people together and encouraging participation. The recent news that OVCATA received more than $10,000 from the province to fund a program aimed at seniors is both welcome and encouraging. The Renfrew County Seniors' Active Transportation project will offer education, encouragement and coaching to seniors across the county, working with existing groups affiliated with the Renfrew County and District Active Aging Network. Renfrew County is again joining with Mississippi Mills Bike Month and OVCATA to get more people out walking and cycling with the Silver Chain Challenge, which started six years ago as a friendly competition between Renfrew and Lanark counties. Participants compete online to see which county can log the most kilometres biked or walked over the month of June. Individuals can register and record their daily activity online and the distances get totalled, with adjustment in recognition of population size. From June 1-30, residents can log their kilometres at www.silverchainchallenge.ca. There are ways you can make the roads safer when it comes to cycling. Before you head out on a bike, it's vital to learn the rules of the road, helmet information and safety tips for cyclists of all ages. As a cyclist, you must share the road with others cars, buses, trucks, motorcycles. Under Ontario's Highway Traffic Act, a bicycle is a vehicle, just like a car or truck. To view the Ontario Guide to Safe Cycling, you can visit the Ontario Ministry of Transportation's website. The OPP recently issued a reminder about some changes in the law when it comes to cycling. The one-metre passing law means drivers must leave a minimum of one-metre distance when passing a cyclist. The penalty if convicted is a fine of $110. When it comes to dooring, the penalty for improper opening of a vehicle door (for driver or passenger), if convicted, is $365. Under the Ontario Highway Traffic Act, cyclists, motorists and pedestrians have equal rights and access to our roadways, say the OPP. All users have to share the road; share the respect.

• LETTERS & COMMENTARY • Community Living weighs in on Bill 148 To the editor: Recently there has been a great deal of media coverage on the efforts of some families to have Bill 148 (employment standards legislation) amended to allow for people who have intellectual disabilities to be paid less than employees who do not have a disability. As agencies that have worked toward ensuring that people with disabilities are not segregated or considered "less" in society, we were saddened to see this. Community Living Ontario and Community Living Upper Ottawa
Valley hold the position that if a person is to be considered an employee of a workplace, they deserve to be treated like all other employees. They should be allowed to eat lunch in the same lunchroom, they should be allowed to use the same washrooms and the employment standards of what they are paid should be as applicable to them as someone without a disability. This is true employment. Employees who have an intellectual disability who are in the workforce hold a variety of different jobs: full-time, parttime, casual, contract, temporary and permanent. They all choose what type of commitment they wish to make toward employment, as

OPINION
To the editor: The provincial election is around the corner but make no mistake - the future of critical local services is very much on the ballot this June 7. The provincial government dictates and regulates municipal services. At the same time, municipal governments deliver and help fund key provincial programs, like social housing and child care. Our fates are deeply intertwined.Yet, no party has offered a clear plan to support municipal governments. All have made expensive promises. And all have remained silent when asked if municipal property taxpayers will have to pay for them. For the small and rural communities in Renfrew County, which often serve large geographic areas on a small tax base, this is a critical question. In some communities, a one per cent property tax increase raises less than $50,000. Property taxpayers can barely keep up with inflation and other pressures, let alone afford
any more provincial responsibilities. In fact, we need a meaningful plan to help us make ends meet. Municipal governments collect just nine cents of every household's tax dollar, with the federal and provincial governments collecting the balance. On less than a dime, municipal governments deliver a wide range of critical services. We also chip in for hospital expansions and equipment. Some small and rural governments pay to help recruit family doctors. We care about the well-being of our hometowns, but nine cents on the dollar is no prescription for healthy and thriving communities. Local infrastructure poses yet another challenge. Roads and bridges are the lifeblood of local economies. But the cost of paving just one kilometre of road may be shared by just five rural households, compared to 25 households in an urban centre. To understand the scale, consider that in Ontario, there are 12,000 local bridges, and enough kilometres of local roads to wrap around the earth nearly eight times. Furthermore, the province
takes a "one-size-fits all" approach to municipal regulation. What works for Kingston or Windsor may not work for Laurentian Hills or Admaston Bromley. Let each community do what is fiscally best for them. Municipal governments know their communities better than those making the rules from Queen's Park. Taxpayers expect governments
to work together and respect their money. We need an approach that considers the impact provincial decisions have on municipal costs and property tax rates. It is time to stop passing down costs and piling them onto the municipal tax bill. Local governments need a greater local say in how services are delivered, and a greater local share of tax revenue - a share that
matches our responsibilities. In the absence of an effective partnership with Queen's Park, many municipal councils will face a stark choice: raise property taxes or make deep cuts to municipal services. Lynn Dollin, President Peter Emon, Board Member Association of Municipalities of Ontario

In honour of our neighbour: Travis Wright fateful evening. Sarah and Travis had purchased their first home with their two young children this past summer. Retired from the military, Travis embarked upon a career closer to home as a paramedic and commenced his studies in North Bay this past fall. What has happened was in no way fair and Sarah shared with me that above all, it was not fair to him. It was not fair he did not get to come home. It is important to discuss the impact of impaired, distracted driving with our families. No matter what age, children young and old are watching scary things unfold before their eyes and not just in films and media. Drive sensibly,

Sarah's best friend Colleen shared this message with me which reflects how grateful, supported and hopeful Sarah has felt despite their profound loss, she explained, "I think what Sarah would like to share the most with everyone extending offers of support and help, is that she is very appreciative but also very independent and capable." Sarah is amazingly strong - I have never heard her complain once. She is very dedicated to her family, friends and career. She takes pride in her job and feels well supported there. Her and her children Autumn & Erik are busy looking forward to the future in their pursuit of happiness and dreams. Travis was a great dad, loving husband and a good person with a big heart. He was in pursuit of a career to continue saving lives while providing a life for his family. This

rio data on collisions from 2013 show that one person is injured in a distracted-driving collision every half hour. A driver using a phone is four times more likely to crash than a driver focusing on the road. In 2012, the Statistics Canada website shows most recent data of reported incidences for impaired driving causing death, 134 in Canada and 22 in Ontario alone. You don't need to know the stats to understand the severity and criminality of our roadways. All you need to do is turn a page of the newspaper, swipe through social media, turn on the radio or television. Teaching children at a very young age the importance of healthy life choices, planning ahead and defensive driving techniques while reducing the rush of our daily lives will have lasting, safety impacts for everyone travelling our roadways. Cautious, careful and defensive driving is contagious and lessons can be taken and shared to help maintain safer roads. Amanda Dixon Arnprior

Arnprior kicks off sunshine season with Priorpalooza DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@metroland.com Live music and children's laughter filled the air at Robert Simpson Park on Saturday.
The weather was ideal for the annual Priorpalooza, which saw multiple performers at the gazebo and various inflatable bouncy structures and much more.

The now Shawville resident has the Robert Simpson Park audience bringing their hands together at Priorpalooza Saturday. 2 Annetta Chapman, daughter of Jacinda and granddaughter of Carolyn and John, makes new friends at the splash pad during Priorpalooza on June 2. There was plenty of fun for the kids, live music, and food at Robert Simpson Park on a warm and sunny Saturday afternoon.
Arnprior marks Rotary Day with tree planting DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@metroland.com Rotary took centre stage in Arnprior on May 23 with three events in the downtown area. The day kicked off with a flag raising at town hall and the proclamation of Rotary Day in Arnprior. Then, at the corner of john and Madawaska streets, a tent was set up to sell Mad Duck Race tickets to support the service club's activities. It was
also the location of a treeplanting ceremony with several members of town council and business leaders. Rotary president Rodney Smith said 1.2 million trees will be planted around the world, one for every member. "This (crab tree) is to help foster and promote a healthier planet," he said to those gathered. "And to assist the community of Arnprior in its extraordinary downtown redevelopment." However, many were eager

Kim Peters took home $400 in prize money. The day was also a chance for folks to meet the newest Rotarians, including Larry Moher. "I thought it was time to give back to the community. There was a time when somebody helped me," he said.

OPINION
Flowers get blisters too Michael Runtz looks at blister beetles
Some of the most interesting shows put on by nature are now taking place on local flowers. Whether they're owned by wildflowers growing at ground level or trees high above, most flowers are alive with insect activity. Some of the visitors such as butterflies are coming to drink sweet nectar while others including bumblebees are coming to load up with pollen to be carried off to an underground nest. But there are also visitors that have no interest in the edible bribes, offerings designed to trick insects into fulfilling the flowers' pol-
MICHAEL RUNTZ Column lination needs. Some of those visitors are beetles that belong to the blister beetle family. Blister beetles are beetles named for a most unusual defence. In certain species, when under attack, liquids are exuded from the beetle's leg joints. Those potent chemicals contain cantharidin and this can cause blisters when skin makes contact with it. Oddly, only the males produce this nasty chemical;
the females acquire it during copulation. Blister beetles are odd-looking insects, many possessing a long, heavy body that looks soft to the touch. Some species are bluegrey, including a common one that is now visiting flowers. But the beetles are coming not to dine on the edible offerings of the flowers but to eat the flowers themselves. Recently I watched about a dozen of these beetles eating the flowers of young pin cherries. After devouring parts of the petals and stamens of one flower, they would fly over to another bloom on the same plant. Most beetles have two pairs of wings, the top pair usually modified into hard covers that protect the softer bottom pair hidden beneath. It

The petals of Pin Cherry flowers are popular food for Blister Beetles. is the hidden, soft pair that provides the beetles with the power of flight. In addition to owning a most unusual defence, blister beetles also display an amazing way of attaining food in their larval stage. After hatching from an egg, a blister beetle larva (known as a triungulin) sits on a flower waiting for a bumble or solitary bee to land. When one does, it grabs onto its leg and hitchhikes a ride back to the bee's underground home. "Hitchhiking" by insects is known as phoresy. Once in the bee's den, the phoretic triungulin dismounts and after finding the bee's larva, it eats it. When the "appetizer" (a wonderful descriptive used by Steve Marshall from Guelph University) is gone, the beetle larva then devours the main course: the store of nectar and pollen placed for the bee's young to dine on. Blister beetles have
played a rather unusual role in our culture. An aphrodisiac called "Spanish Fly" was made from certain species of that beetle group. The beetles were ground up to make the infamous drug, which was first used by the Romans during their orgies. However, in case you were thinking about spicing up your life a bit with the aid of those insects, that aphrodisiac was made from blister beetles found in Spain. If you tried the wrong species you might just end up with an embarrassing blister!

We think of you in silence as we often speak your name, All we have is memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake with which we will never part. God has you in his keeping, but we have you in our hearts.
Lovingly remembered by, Wayne Needham, Gail Ryan & Family Shalla, Parnell In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandpa Who passed away June 10th, 2015
Forever Loved Mike, Betty & Family
Phyllis Ziebarth A dear sister who passed away June 4th, 2017 Always a smile instead of a frown. Always a hand when one was down. Always true, faithful and kind. Wonderful memories she left behind.

I’m sending a dove to heaven, With a parcel on it’s wings. Be careful when you open it, It’s full of beautiful things. Inside is a million kisses, wrapped in a million hugs, To say how much I miss you, And to send you all my love. I hold you close within my heart, And there you will remain, To walk with me throughout my life, Until we meet again.

They said time would ease the pain. Everyday I still feel the same. I wake every morning reaching for you, My pillow soaked with my tears Like the morning dew. We were so sure This was something we could beat, Knowing it would be no small feat. The ribbons of pink now mean much more, Just never thought this would come knocking on our door.

Marlayna Griffin needs about $12,500 by June 15. She held a barbecue fundraiser, cookie sale and auction, for the on-ice expedition hosted by Students on Ice. It accepts students from around the world and educates them about global warming and northern climate, with the help of recognized scientists.

"Students are expected to participate in experiments and contribute to scientific research while on vessel. This experience is valuable to me because I am very proud to be Canadian, and I am very personally concerned with the welfare of our environment."

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, you feel especially creative this week and want to focus on the future. You may have concrete ideas, but don’t know just how to put those plans into action. Seek assistance. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, learning to detach from thoughts and feelings can help you learn which ideas are important and which ones are extraneous. This can help you reduce stress. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, if you feel like something is lacking in your life right now, you may want to surround yourself with some friends who provide inspiration and compel change.
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!
