EMC news - Arnprior council may soon see their behavior governed by an official Code of Conduct, overseen by an integrity commissioner. The Code of Conduct is in its draft stage, but it is a comprehensive document that includes policies covering common subjects that affect council, staff, the public and municipal government in general. It governs such subjects as council’s roles and responsibility, rules of etiquette, behavior of councillors, use of municipal property and resources, confidentiality, and the acceptance of gifts, hospitality and other benefits. An integrity commissioner would be hired to insure that the mayor and councillors have not breached ethics. Town CAO Michael Wildman presented this draft code during council’s meeting May 13.

In Pain all the time?
Bob Murray shows off his impressive tulip garden at his Maple Street home. Murray, 85, adds 50-100 more tulips each year and estimates he has somewhere around 500 of the blooms in his gardens. His secret to success? “Lots of water. And mulch last year when it was so dry,� said Murray. His daughter Valerie Hemphill said neighbours and passersby often comment on the gardens. “It’s our own little tulip festival,� she said. The Ottawa Tulip Festival is on now until May 20.

Code of Conduct, staff has been researching best practices and reviewing whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done in several other municipalities. The draft code that council reviewed is modeled after Carleton Placeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s council Code of Conduct with a few added previsions. After accepting a council code of conduct, the next step would be to create a similar one for employees, but â&#x20AC;&#x153;with a slightly different spin.â&#x20AC;? There would be no need for an integrity commissioner as council and administration would police staff operations, said Wildman. Council will deliberate over the next few weeks and make a decision at its second meeting in May.
0509. R0012096482
Concerns over common sense were brought up. In a community with so many family members and longtime friends, an offer to buy lunch could seem untoward while being totally innocent, it was noted. Wildman tried to put councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mind at ease. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Integrity commissioners are the type of individual to run on common sense side of things,â&#x20AC;? he assured them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If there is the type of relationship like a brother, they would certainly see through that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What they are really looking for is if there is a pecuniary interest or not,â&#x20AC;? he added. In investigations, the commissioner has the right to determine whether a perceived issue is frivolous or worth examining. He or she then
follows certain steps and presents the ďŹ ndings to council. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His ďŹ ndings are ďŹ nal,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, (whether) council decides to react is at councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s discretion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He may make recommendations,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are certain things in the Municipal Act that can be done and there are a few other avenues council can take â&#x20AC;Ś some are listed in the code as well.â&#x20AC;? The process is open and results are tallied and presented. Similar bylaws are found in most other municipalities in the province after the Toronto Computer Leasing Inquiry uprooted severe ethical breeches. Many are also in the process of appointing integrity commissioners including the city of Ottawa, said Wildman. As part of the process of creating a

Good Samaritan Kenny Scissons mourned th
7 Drive, Chip and Putt for Kids.
EMC news – Arnprior is mourning the loss of a citizen being called “a great humanitarian.” Kenny Scissons died May 7 at the Ottawa Heart Institute. The 85-year-old had been battling heart disease for some time. Kenneth James Scissons was well known around town
Kenny Scissons for giving those down on their luck a helping hand. He frequently
gave out free meals at Ken’s Kitchen and helped many people, usually anonymously. When a house he owned next to Ken’s Kitchen burned down last December, the community rallied around him and his tenants with several businesses and organizations holding fundraisers to help them recover from the
devastating blaze. A funeral mass was held at St. John Chrysostom Church Saturday. In keeping with Scissons’ many good deeds, a donation to the Arnprior Food Bank in his memory was requested by his family. For more, see the obituary in the classified section of this newspaper.

Arnprior receiving a makeover Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com
EMC news - To boast economic development, tourism and culture, the town of Arnprior is rebranding itself. To accomplish this, the town has hired Cinnamontoast, an Ottawa-based design company. “I was talking (to the CAO) about all the great festivals and all the great things you have that no one really knows about,” said creative director Bronwyn Mondoux. “Our goal is to show that so that people don’t think as this (town) as a pit stop, but rather as a place to stop and enjoy and get excited about.” The plan is to create a contemporary, modern, fresh brand that uniquely captures Arnprior’s personality. Out of this will come a new website, a logo, a slogan, letter head, a social media campaign and possibly an app, “so local (residents) feel proud and tourist are excited.” Mondoux and her designer presented some of her overall goals to residents and town staff during a brand and website open house on May 6. It was well attended. Though several people were nervous to find the company wasn’t local or the design would be unrepresentative of the town, Mondoux is confident the initiative will be a success. “I kind of want to scare people a little bit, but in a great way,” she said. “That’s when things get great. That’s what makes thing go from good to great when you step out of your comfort level.” The company is using the town’s strategic
plan as a general guide, using the beefy document to define some of their goals. “It has everything in it,” said Mondoux. “Like how to make the downtown more pretty, how to make the businesses more active, how to make the dining more intricate, how to bring in festival and all sorts of good stuff.” The first step to creating a brand to help bring about these goals is to research. “We need to go discover,” said Mondoux. “We need to discover who you guys are, what you are all about, why you do what you do, the good the bad and the ugly.” One of the ways to get into the town’s nittygritty is get resident’s feedback through an online survey, found on the town’s website. “We really want to engage because that’s the best type of brand,” said Mondoux. “I’d love to hear from people. I want to hear people’s stories.” She plans to keep the town’s personality in its website and brand. Instead of typical stock photography, she plans to hold a photo shoot of the town with local residents and showcase their daily lives. She’s looking for volunteers models. “I want people in fishing gear, mamas with their babies, mailmen sitting at Tim Hortons having their coffee,” she said. “We really want to create something that people can relate with and are excited about,” she added. To participate in the online survey, please visit Arnprior.ca in the next week. PATRICIA LEBOEUF/METROLAND For more information or to register for the photo shoot, please email info@cinnamontoast.

New Arnprior Fair logo focuses on agricultural aspects of event John Carter john.carter@metroland.com
EMC news - Emphasizing the agricultural basis of the Arnprior Fair has paid off for Jennifer West. The design by the 23-year-old Ottawa resident has been chosen for the fair’s new logo. The logo was unveiled at the Arnprior Agricultural Society’s Ranch Night at the Nick Smith Centre May 4. Fair board director Monica Schnob, who is in charge of advertising and fundraising, said the majority of the board voted for West’s design. They were pleased that it features a farmer with a pitchThe Ultimate Weather Barrier

fork, wheat produce and a horse, promoting the agricultural roots of the fair, she explained. “We wanted it to reflect the agricultural look of the fair.” With the popularity of team penning, horses have returned as an integral part of the fair, she noted. She said the use of produce is also timely, as the Arnprior Farmers’ Market will be playing a major role in the fair this year. “We’re excited about that.” West, who noticed the contest on the fair’s Facebook page, said she knew that agriculture plays an important part in the fair, both past and present. While not knowing a great deal about Arnprior, she does have close friends from the town. Her design will be used on letterheads and be included on requests being sent out this month by the Fair Board appealing for community sponsors for fair events.

“To reach an agreement, the LCBO must address the inequities of parttime work,” said Thomas. “So far, the LCBO is ignoring the glaring wage and scheduling issues for part-time staff. This is unacceptable to us.” Thomas maintains the first strike in the LCBO’s 87-year history could be easily avoided. “There is no reason for part-time workers to make less money performing the same work as full-time employees,” Thomas said. “There is no reason for part-time workers to go week-to-week without a schedule, and then only work a few hours. “These members have a serious responsibility controlling alcohol sales for a corporation that earns more than $4 billion a year. We can easily reach an agreement that is reasonable for our members and the people of Ontario.” The rise of part-time, temporary, unstable work in Ontario is the focus of a new ad campaign by the union. “Employers these days are driving big changes in the workplace that are making it harder and harder for people to make a living,” said Thomas. “More and more jobs are being classified as part-time or temporary as employers with increasingly high profits continue to squeeze the people who make those profits possible,” he added. “That’s exactly what’s happening at the LCBO, and the goal of our ad campaign is to inform the public that what we are bargaining for is what all working people want: the chance to live decently and give our kids what they need.” More than 60 per cent of LCBO employees are ‘casual’ employees, with lower wages, few if any benefits, irregular hours, and an average annual
income of $26,000, Thomas said. The LCBO earned $1.6 billion in profits last year. “These negotiations are really about what kind of Ontario we want to live in,” Thomas said. “If high profits for big corporations don’t translate into good jobs for people, something’s got to be done.” Meanwhile, the LCBO is urging customers to shop early to avoid a possible shutdown. It is also reminding its customers that, regardless of the status of negotiations with the union, all LCBO stores will be closed this Monday, Victoria Day. Like most other retailers, LCBO closes on the statutory holiday. Some agency stores will observe normal business hours on May 20. “In advance of the first long weekend of the summer, customers are encouraged to shop early for the best product selections,” said LCBO senior VP Bob Clevely. “Customers entertaining this weekend can avoid any possible service disruptions by shopping our stores early and stocking up.” Negotiations with OPSEU are ongoing. For updates on collective bargaining developments, visit the LCBO Media Centre at www.lcbo.com or follow on Twitter @LCBONEWS. Over the summer, the LCBO reminds customers to please drink responsibly and to never consume alcohol when driving or boating. Responsible hosting information is available at www.deflatetheelephant.com. Customers are also encouraged to bring a reusable bag when shopping at the LCBO and take empty beverage alcohol containers (large and small glass bottles, PET plastic, Tetra Pak cartons, bag-in-box and cans) to The Beer Store for a full deposit refund.

EDITORIAL
Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s revel in the Sens resiliency EMC editorial â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The signs of spring have arrived in the Valley. Tulips are in bloom, joggers and cyclists are more common sights on the trails and streets, and restaurant patios are once again becoming an afternoon destination. However, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely something else in the air this spring. There are a few more little red flags perched on the tops of cars, there are a more red T-shirts and jerseys marked by a distinctive Spartan logo adorning passersby, and the streets are a little more barren at around 7 p.m. every other evening. Yes, hockey fever has hit the Ottawa Valley a bit harder this spring. The Ottawa Senators eased past the Montreal Canadiens in five games last week, including a pair of raucous encounters at Scotiabank Place. For those without tickets, fans filled bars, restaurants and living rooms across the region to watch games on TV. Whether you are a Senators, Canadians or even a Leafs fans, this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playoffs with all Canadian teams from the east participating provided some added excitement. Sure, it ended in disappointment for Hab and Leaf fans. But their teams show great promise and potential for future glory. As for the Senators, the team showed great
promise at the start of the year with their upand-coming stars. But a series of crippling injuries threatened their season. However, like Canadians are apt to do, they found a way to persevere and succeed despite the adversity. Many fans around the National Hockey League have expressed admiration for the pesky Sens. And now with the demise of Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, they are Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final hope on the road to the Stanley Cup. Their success also provides an economic boost in these parts, filling bars and restaurants during game nights. And it generates excitement, boosting spirits and bringing people together in support for a common cause. For a short time, we can get behind about a gutsy team fighting to overcome long odds, and forget briefly about our everyday worries. It happened before, in 2007 the Senators reached the Stanley Cup final. But this year is a bonus. The Sens werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expected to make the playoffs, let alone win a round. So letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enjoy the moment and feel good about a team of players who refuse to let tough times grind them down. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what makes them a fitting representative of Ottawa and the Valley.

LETTER
DND move opportunity for this area To the editor: I believe that there is a great economical opportunity about to take place over the next couple of years, that could have short, and long term impact on our local area. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think it will just fall in our laps, but we will get some spill-off from it, in the short term, and we should work hard to take advantage of it in the long term. The federal government has made the decision, to relocate the National Defense Headquarters, to the old Nortel Complex in Kanata. In addition, the RCMP will be relocating out to the Barrhaven area. Both of these moves are obviously going to have an economic impact on the East end of Ottawa, and I understand and sympathize with that. However, we in the lower Ottawa Valley, have a great opportunity, to promote our area in the coming years and we must take advantage. I believe that all levels of governments should be contemplating how to promote the Renfrew, Horton, Admaston, McNabBraeside areas in the coming future. As I know from first-hand knowledge, the commute to Ottawa, is now much easier, than when I did it for
many years as general manager of the Ottawa Air Traffic Control Facility. Highway 417 has now double lanes to west of Arnprior. I had a next door neighbour for many years until recently, who commuted from the Pinnacle to NDHQ in downtown Ottawa. With NDHQ now going to be only being 40 minutes from Renfrew, we are now on the radar. There is going to be approximately perhaps as many as 50,000 people going to be affected by these moves. I believe that most will stay in the location they are presently in and commute across Ottawa to their new locations in Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s West end. Some will move no doubt. However, a great many of these positions, in a lot of cases are transient. Relocation is part of the job, with the RCMP and military; it would be in our collective best interests to consider starting to think about how to promote our area. There will be new transfers involved, and many will consider locating west of the city of Ottawa. We should be considering the pursuit of these people, and consider the impact this will have on us. You can rest assured that the com-

munities of Arnprior and Carleton Place will be doing their best, to attract as many as possible, into their communities. These positions are of the high end pay scale. They would be a welcome addition to all of our communities. Additional revenue to add to our already extremely good sports facilities. Pressure to double lane 417 into Renfrew County. The building of new communities, and expansion of existing. Not to mention the expansion for local employment opportunities.

Two friends and the fish that came between them Valley fish tales EMC lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; It must have looked like something out of a black-and-white comedy from the silent movie era. Three men out on the Ottawa; two none too pleased after what recently transpired. The two are at furthest reaches of the boat. A solid three hours of silence, needless to say, has put a damper on things. Poor Ron Ferguson, the friendsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; guide, is in the figurative middle getting bombarded with grumbling and dirty looks. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a stormy and rainy and miserable day on top of it all. A crappy day last September. The kind of day a fishing guide earns his keep by fighting endless wind, ferreting out lunkers, and keeping friends from pummeling one another. Irish Creek Outfitters owner Ferguson wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have it any other way. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kinda funny to see two adult guys that are mad at each other over a fish,â&#x20AC;? recalled the Renfrew-area guide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The two lads came out for a good time.â&#x20AC;? It started early on in the trip when Ferguson was busy keeping the boat from bumping up against rocks. Friend 1 nabs a muskie in the 54-55 inch range. It even uncharacteristically jumped out of the water, prompting all on board to do the jittery little dance that always happens when making room to welcome a monster aboard. They yank him to the side of

were beyond enamoured. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was 16.6 pounds, and really nice colours,â&#x20AC;? Mike recalled. Keep the measurement in mind. 16.6 pounds, exactly. Because after returning to Ottawa, taking a bit of ribbing from his friend, admiring the monster that was mounted and on prominent display, a year would pass before that number would come up again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In â&#x20AC;&#x2122;05 we went back, and I was the lucky one,â&#x20AC;? Mike said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got another walleye to the side (of the boat) and it weighed in at ex-
actly 16.6 pounds.â&#x20AC;? Even today Mike doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wish he had another ounce on his fish, maybe a midmorning snack before taking on his lure. He is okay with what the fishing gods provide. The one difference? Mike didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mount his fish. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s holding out for the next. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll mount one, but it will have to bigger,â&#x20AC;? he said with a laugh. Do you have a fish story?

the boat. Friend 2, with the best of intentions, reaches in with the net to scoop up the fish. It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a hard job, but he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to hear that one more time. So he reaches over the side to net the beast. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when it happened. Friend 2 accidently knocks the lure out of the fishâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mouth with the rim of the net. Disbelief descends. The fish slides back to its dark netherworld. Picture the look on Friend 1â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face and it will resemble the look on every Leafsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fan at the end of every season for the last almost 50 years. The only difference is that Friend 1 missed a better opportunity to win the Cup. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He ended up getting a better one later in the day, so you could say they made it up,â&#x20AC;? Ferguson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But at the time you had to chuckle a little bit.â&#x20AC;? Mike Van Denberg of Renegade Bass in Ottawa has a bizarre story that took place at what seems like the site of every fishing show on TV: Bay of Quinte. The radio show host has a ton of stories about guys who catch the tournament winner with just 10 minutes left on the clock, and the like. But this is a story of Mike and a buddy travelling down to Belleville for late-season trophy walleye. You can expect a bit of friendly competition. These are experienced anglers who are always on. The fish typically weigh in around 10 pounds in Quinte. Anything from 10 to 13 pounds is a decent fish. But when the bait fish seemed to gain about 14 pounds, Mike and Co. got really excited. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really monstrous fish, I said (to Richard Sykes). It was pushing 15 pounds.â&#x20AC;? Trolling was cut; the boat brought round to make nice with Mr. Walleye. But the closer they got, the bigger it grew. By the time Mike and Richard hauled it in and weighed it up, they

Stranded airman finds kindness in Arnprior To the Editor: My wife and I were at dinner with some friends in Ottawa this evening (May 6), and it so happened that one of our friends had his parents visiting from Toronto. I somewhat patiently explained where Arnprior is, assuming that Toronto-centric people may have a bit of a problem with the geography of Eastern Ontario. “Arnprior!, Arnprior!, I will never forget Arnprior!” the man uttered. I bristled, ready to argue whatever slight or wrong he may have experienced. Here is his story: In the mid 1950s he was a young airman in the RCAF who had been posted from Winnipeg to the Rockcliffe Air Base. He was driving his clunker of a car, and just as he passed through Arnprior his tire blew out. That was bad for three reasons: It was snowing like crazy and getting dark, he was broke as he had spent all of his cash getting this far (this was before credit cards in every wallet) and he had already blown a tire
on the trip and was driving on the spare. He managed to get into a shop and the repairs were done for $10. He explained that he was an airman who was being posted, had no cash, but would gladly write a cheque. The garage owner pulled open a drawer and withdrew a box of bounced cheques - the deal was laid out – “You provide the cash and you get to drive the car to Ottawa.” Suddenly a man appears (the memory is that the man appeared from nowhere) and makes the following offer. “The weather is horrid, and even the truckers are pulling off the road. Come home with me, join my wife and me for supper, we will put you up for the night and we will sort this out in the morning.” The airman had a sense of trepidation - he is in a new town and no one knows he is here and a stranger is asking him home .... but on the other hand there is no ‘Plan B’, it was dark and snowy and he was hungry, so he took up the offer. He went to the house, had a won-
derful meal and was given a cozy room for the night. The next morning he was driven back into town, his benevolent innkeeper paid for the tire and off to Ottawa he went (after, of course, leaving the cheque). The airman’s first task in Ottawa was to put a thank you letter in the mail. After he did that, he ensured the cheque in fact was cashed without a glitch and forgot about the incident. About three months later a letter came in the mail. It was from the wife of the benefactor, sharing the sad news that this kind man had died. In fact the benefactor knew that he was dying the night of the storm, but still chose to help. His hope was that this little act of charity would in fact be seed for other good acts. So this is why this long retired pilot remembers Arnprior. And why he hopes that there is still fruit to be harvested from this seed. Andy Kalnins Arnprior

Hospital visits nothing to complain about To the Editor: I have heard a few people complain about the hospital because of the long waits in the Arnprior Hospital Emergency Room (try going to an Ottawa Hospital). I have been to the Emergency Room three times in the last few months and only once did I have to wait more than two hours. Each time 1 had to be admitted and found the Emergency Room staff very friendly and helpful and, in particular, Olga, Micheline and the triage nurse, Liz. I have also heard complaints about having to pay $2 for parking (once again try going to visit someone in my Ottawa Hospital and you win find $2 very cheap).
I would like to thank the staff at the hospital for their care and friendliness to me and in particular to Dr. Andrea Gutauskas and her father and to Dr. Cindy Morrison. I can’t thank the nurses enough for their care and, in particular, Jason, Liz, Nev, Sarah, Sophie, Paula and all the other nurses. Even the maintenance staff were very friendly and pleasant to talk to. I really can’t find any reason for anyone to complain about this hospital. If you are unfortunate enough to have to go into a hospital, in my opinion you couldn’t find one much better than Arnprior. Mrs. G. O’Grady Pakenham
Canadians need to be more vigilant of home-grown terrorism To the Editor: While there are wide spread definitions of terrorism, one definition that I think hits the nail on the head is “the systematic threat or use of violence by organized groups to achieve their objectives.” While that may sound overly simplistic, it really isn’t. Terrorism has been used for centuries throughout recorded history by political organizations on all sides of the social and political spectrum, by nationalists, ethnic organizations, religious sects and revolutionaries. We often think of terrorism as an instrument of sedition, but it has also been used by internal organizations within existing governments and their military arms to create climates of fear to encourage conformity to national ideology. In today’s world we generally think of Al-Qaeda and other radical Islamic organizations and within those organizations we see people becoming radicalized into following the mantra of its ideology. That is what happened with the recruitment of the young men from London, Ontario who participated in the attack upon Algerian oil infrastructures recently. That is what happened with Omar Khadar and others. And that is what will continue to occur into the future just as it has occurred in the past. While we tend to think of terrorism as being foreign in nature, it isn’t. There are so many of these groups operating, one cannot keep up with all of them. When it comes to foreign organizations, the more famous ones come to mind like the Soviet KGB and other Warsaw Pact secret police agencies, the IRA, but when we look at domestic terrorism we see much more. In the United States for example, we see domestic violence groups like the Animal Liberation Front, Alpha 66 and Omega 7, Army of God, Black Liberation Army, The Covenant, The Sword, Arm of the Lord, Earth Liberation Front, Jewish Defense League,
Ku Klux Klan, May 19th Communist Organization, The Order, Phineas Priesthood, Symbionese Liberation Army, United Freedom Front, The Weathermen and the list goes on and on including criminal organizations like the Mafia and the Hell’s Angels. Criminal organizations you say? Yes, criminal organizations. The definition cited in the first paragraph of this letter defines terrorism as “organized groups that come to together to achieve their objectives.” Canada is not immune. We have in this country off-shoots of some American groups operating here. We have had in our history the Fenians, The Squamish Five who came from the university intelligentsia in British Columbia, the FLQ, the Sons of Freedom who are a radical sect from the Doukhobor religious community and others, including some warrior organizations within our First Nations people. To stretch the definition to include individuals, we could say that bullying is a form of terrorism too, but I would leave that for others to ponder. How do we combat terrorism? We already are doing that as best as possible via our various intelligence agencies. But we can’t just leave that for others to do it for us. To detect radicalization operations we need, as individuals to try and apply techniques such as neighbourhood watch to detect what is ‘not normal in a situation of normalcy’. Once detected, bring it to the attention of those in authority be they school officials, law enforcement, etc. But this must start at ‘home’ in the first place. What our society does not need is a system of secrecy that includes a KGB style of spying on others. Terrorism is with us, has been with us for centuries, and will be with us long after we have gone by those who will use violence to achieve their objectives. Thomas Charbonneau Arnprior

Environmental laws threaten rural life, McNab-Braeside council told John.carter@metroland.com
In a presentation to McNab-Braeside council, Henry Tuck brought a globe bound in ropes to accentuate his point that the world is in danger of being enslaved by environmental legislation. officials donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know about it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scary.â&#x20AC;? He claims the plan is to shift the power from elected officials on every level to â&#x20AC;&#x153;science technocrats who will micro-manage all we do.â&#x20AC;? He said that the ICLEI and its supporters are using â&#x20AC;&#x153;guilt tripsâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;fear-mongeringâ&#x20AC;? in 2
EMC news â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Henry Tuck is a man on a mission. The Goshen resident is sounding the alarm, charging that propertyowners rights are endangered by legislation implemented under the guise of protecting the environment. Tuck maintains there is a worldwide movement afoot to use global warming and other environmental issues to justify imposing a United Nations-led world government that would place major restrictions on freedom, especially that of rural residents. In a presentation to McNab-Braeside councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s planning advisory committee, he said the Ontario governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed Endangered Species Act if passed will be a major tool in imposing the controls. There has been only three days of public discussion allowed on the bill, but it will be â&#x20AC;&#x153;the death knell for all activity in rural Ontario,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing to do with endangered species â&#x20AC;Ś but a tool to restrict us on how we can use our land.â&#x20AC;? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s urging local politicians and citizens to speak up by June 30 in a bid to organize an injunction to have the legislation reviewed and revised. Tuck was scheduled to make a presentation to Horton council Tuesday. The same message is also being presented to MPPs at Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park this week, in a session that Tuck has encouraged Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski to attend. He said he has also raised the issue with the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, as the Endangered Species Act â&#x20AC;&#x153;will ruin all farming in the province if the eco-fascists get this through.â&#x20AC;? He claimed legislation such the Green Energy and Endangered Species acts are â&#x20AC;&#x153;part of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;tool kitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to kill off rural Ontario, town by town, township by township.â&#x20AC;? Tuck said he agrees a rational and effective system should be in place to steward Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural resources and â&#x20AC;&#x153;protect genuinely endangered species if any are indeed any,â&#x20AC;? but it should be based on advocacy or fake science. He warned McNab-Braeside councillors to beware of any planning policies, including the County of Renfrewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strategic plan, that have been developed with input from the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). ICLEI has made inroads in the U.S. and is â&#x20AC;&#x153;well ingrainedâ&#x20AC;? in Canada, he said, charging the organization has been successful in â&#x20AC;&#x153;camouflaging its true identityâ&#x20AC;? so people wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize its agenda â&#x20AC;&#x153;is coming from the U.N.â&#x20AC;? In the push to embrace environmental protections, â&#x20AC;&#x153;individual rights have taken a back seat to the collective,â&#x20AC;? said Tuck. The United Nations-sponsored Agenda 21 for sustainable growth is a plan to control all land, water, minerals, plants and eventually population growth, he maintained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been flying under the radar. Most elected
persuading people they are to blame for â&#x20AC;&#x153;consuming the planet.â&#x20AC;? Their supporters are â&#x20AC;&#x153;wellintentionedâ&#x20AC;? and may think they are â&#x20AC;&#x153;saving the world,â&#x20AC;? but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not case, he maintained. As a result planning documents are based on misguided support for the rights of trees and rocks and not on facts, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They say weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ruining the planet, yet weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve developed only three per cent of Canada,â&#x20AC;? he added. The push for sustainable development could end up in removing dams and ski hills and even curtail population growth, Tuck warned. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be the Ministry of Natural Resources who are going to become the jackbooted guys who will make sure we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disturb the milk snake or some other thing on the endangered list.â&#x20AC;? He suggested that 114 Canadian municipalities are card-carrying members of ICLEI and the others are indirectly affiliated with the organization because the Federation of Canadian Municipalities has been a member since 1999. He said he has asked the County of Renfrew if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a member, but has yet to get a reply. McNab-Braeside council was non-committal after the presentation, although Mayor Mary Campbell noted that townships are limited in what they can do as provincial legislation supersedes any regulations the lower tier passes. Tuck said he was inspired to speak up after reading Canadian journalist Elizabeth Nicksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s writings. He urged council and citizens to visit her website www.elizabethnickson.com.

A beaver’s territorial dispute turned violent
Michael Runtz Nature’s Way EMC lifestyle - Spring seems to be quietly slipping into summer. Carpets of stunning spring ephemerals – Bloodroots, Spring Beauties, and Hepaticas – have been replaced by shade from overhead tree leaves. Many birds are building nests or sitting on eggs. And territories are being hotly disputed. A territory is a piece of habitat claimed by an animal and defended against others of its kind, usually its own sex. When robins battle or cardinals relentlessly attack their reflection in windows, it is a male territory owner driving off an intruder. Declarations of territory ownership can be made vocally, which is one reason wolves howl and songbirds sing. They can be olfactory declarations; many animals deposit smelly chemicals at strategic locations along territory boundaries.
When intrusions occur, the territorial male inevitably becomes aggressive. Usually the intruder submits and departs, avoiding physical interaction that might cause injury. Beavers are colonial animals that maintain territories year-round. They post “no trespassing” notices by creating mud piles on which they secrete special chemicals. Scent mounds are located along the shore or atop rocks and dams, and marking occurs frequently in spring, especially around birthing time, which is also when two-year-olds are wandering after being evicted from their colonies. Last week I was crossing the small bridge on Basin Creek in Algonquin Park when I heard splashing upstream. I looked to see water frothing and two animals fighting. They separated and a large Beaver swam to shore. Seconds later it launched back into the water and went head to head with another Beaver. Like Sumo wrestlers they grappled, writhing as each strove to gain physical advantage and bite its opponent. After a minute of violent fighting, they separated. The loser, who appeared to have a gash across its face, retreated to the far shore where it floated for a while before vanishing. The victor climbed up on the opposite bank and for half an hour sat whimpering and periodically shaking. Its left forearm was held at a peculiar angle and I could see that it had been bitten in its left shoulder. The victor eventually waddled into the water. It swam upstream, going ashore several times to scent mark. At the last site it carried and dropped a load of mud over which it squatted and squirted
MICHAEL RUNTZ
These two Beavers are engaged in serious combat, biting each other around the head. chemicals. When it swam farther upstream, I raced to an opening across the creek from its scent mound and squatted motionless. I heard a tail slap and soon the Beaver swam past me. It slapped twice more, once where the fight had occurred, before returning upstream. It dove and climbed ashore directly across from me. It dropped a load of mud and scent marked it before returning to the water and vanishing upstream. Fighting has been rarely observed in Bea-
vers, so I was most fortunate to have documented it photographically. Fighting is a last resort for any territorial animal, done only when an intruder refuses to leave. While territorial intrusions never end amicably, seldom does serious fighting ensue. The reason for this was clearly revealed by the Beavers: victors and intruders can both end up severely wounded. Or worse. The Nature number is 613-387-2503; email is mruntz@start.ca.
The winner of the beaver battle reaffirms territory ownership by scent marking on a pile of mud.

EMC news - Coyotes are common throughout North America, including inurban areas. You may see and hear them more during mating season (December to February) and when juveniles are dispersing from family groups (September to November). They do adapt to making good use of bordering habitat, so it is important to learn the few basic rules in co-existing with them, says the Ottawa-Carleton Wildlife Centre. In the local climate, coyotes will be seen more frequently around properties during late fall and winter because they are following their primary food source of mice. And mice seek shelter around homes and sheds during the cold winter months. Another significant percentage of a coyote’s diet consists of fruit like crab apples and berries. Here are some tips to keep them away. • Don’t feed coyotes. • Keep pets safe. • Discourage bold coyotes. • If you encounter a coyote while walking, make noise until he retreats. Be ‘big, bad and loud’. For more information, visit www. wildlifeinfo.ca.

Red Cross ready to respond to disasters sands of trees and power lines, damaging or destroying homes and cottages. Red Cross teams conducted door-todoor outreach searches and provided emergency food and drinking water to families affected by downed trees, blocked roadways and lack of electricity. In August, the Renfrew team supported Wal-Mart’s annual Red Cross fundraising campaign by being present at the two Wal-Mart stores during the campaign and providing information to shoppers about disaster readiness. Red Cross volunteers also made presentations to organizations about personal preparedness for the first 72 hours of a disaster. In October, the Renfrew County Red Cross team participated in a provincial emergency response training exercise, Exercise Trillium Resolve, which simulated severe weather events. About 140 Red Cross volunteers from across Ontario worked alongside 1,000 first responders, organizations, services, government departments and municipalities to test the implementation of emergency plans. Flooding was and is the word of the day this spring. Red Cross volunteers were on standby for flooding in the Whitney area. Ten volunteers were deployed for three days to the Township of Brudenell, Lyndoch, and Raglan. They maintained a reception centre welcoming community members wanting information about the flooding on the Madawaska.
A week later eight Red Cross volunteers were again on standby for the Township of Whitewater Region because of potential local flooding. When local Canadian Red Cross volunteers are not responding to disasters, they attend team meetings and training to plan and practice for emergency response. Renfrew Branch volunteers also participate in municipal, county and provincial exercises designed to practice responses to nuclear accidents,, municipal disasters and county wide disasters. Red Cross volunteers also assist municipalities in disaster planning by conducting surveys of buildings which might be used as shelters during a disaster. Volunteers have done shelter surveys in Pembroke, Petawawa, Killaloe, Hagarty, Richards, Greater Madawaska, and Brudenell, Lyndoch, and Raglan. The team is available to do shelter surveys for any municipality in Renfrew County. The Red Cross is only as strong as its volunteer base, and is currently recruiting volunteers to be local disaster responders, or to provide human resources and administrative support. If you want to make a difference and would like to become a part of a dynamic, energetic and committed team, please contact the Renfrew County Branch of the Canadian Red Cross at 613 735-1157 or email the Branch at ozrenfrewcounty@redcross.ca.

Beware rushing waters EMC news – With the Victoria Day weekend approaching, Ontario Power Generation (OPG) is asking people to pause and remember to make safety a priority when near the water. While all waterways should be treated with respect, people should use extra care when near lakes and rivers that have dams and hydroelectric generating stations. Hydroelectric facilities are often remotely controlled to generate electricity as needed. This causes frequent and rapid changes in the water flow and levels often creating strong undertows, turbulence and sudden, powerful surges of water moving downstream in what was once calm looking surface water. “Our safety message is simple: Stay Clear! Stay Safe! That is true the year round. Obey all signs, booms, buoys and fences – they are there for your protection,” says Frank Chiarotto, OPG’s senior vicepresident of Hydro Thermal Operations Learn more at www.opg.com/watersafety.

EMC lifestyle – For Canadian Red Cross volunteers in Renfrew County, 2012 proved to be a busy year. The Red Cross Disaster Management team, trained to help people affected by small or large disasters from house fires to wind events, has served Renfrew County for more than eight years. Its 18 volunteers make a difference in the lives of people affected by disasters in Renfrew County. In 2012, Red Cross volunteers provided emergency assistance to 25 people displaced by house or apartment fires in Petawawa, Pembroke, Beachburg, Eganville, Cobden, and Fitzroy Harbour. They provided clients with immediate shelter, food, clothing, personal hygiene/grooming products and, in some cases, pet care. In March, two Renfrew Branch volunteers worked with the Town of Smith Falls to set up an emergency shelter at the Gallipeau Centre, which would have accommodated up to 500 evacuees from James Bay affected by spring flooding. Although the evacuation did not occur, the preparation was a valuable training exercise. In June, Red Cross volunteer, Lisa Falls, deployed to Thunder Bay to provide shelter and outreach services to residents whose homes were damaged by massive flooding.

Record-breaking Hike for Hospice Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com
What a Sunday in the sun! An outpouring of support for Renfrew Hospice’s annual Hike for Hospice resulted in a record-breaking fundraiser of $63,301. That easily eclipsed last year’s record of more than $52,000, for one of the hospice’s three major annual fundraisers.
“The team donations really helped,” said Hike for Hospice chairman Connie Legg, knowing the hospice’s motto this season was the same as last year, It Takes A Team. “The word is getting out and people are coming back year after year, but I never thought we’d make that kind of money.” That kind of money needs to be met, since only about half of the hospice’s annual operating budget is covered by the provincial gov-
ernment. The fundraising success was matched by the fervour for Hospice Renfrew’s cause, which is providing compassionate for its residents, whose families aren’t asked for a penny for their love one’s end-of-life healthcare. Several individuals or teams, gathered for the three-kilometre hike or run, couldn’t say enough about what the hospice has done since it opened in 2008. It’s estimated more than 300 people took part in Sunday’s Hike for Hospice, including lead
hiker Hughie Nolan. “The numbers are reflective of the number of families coming through our doors,” said chair Legg. The financial support and public awareness generated by Hike for Hospice are both important, she said, as Hospice Renfrew continues to provide end-of-life care for residents across Renfrew County.

Man sought after attempted abduction EMC news - The Renfrew detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police has responded to a report that a man attempted to lure a child with candy and grab her while she walked to school Monday morning. About 10:25 a.m. the 10-year-old student from Our Lady of Fatima Catholic School was walking on Bruce Street towards Stewart Street in Renfrew. A man across the street called out to her and offered her candy. She says she ignored the male and quickly walked away, but got stopped by the crosswalk at the intersection. The man approached her and attempted to grab her. She kicked and tripped the male and ran away. He got into a black van parked near the Wendy’s Restaurant at the intersection and drove away. “I certainly would say we haven’t had anything like this happen in recent years,” said
Renfrew OPP community service officer Janice Sawbridge. The man is described as in his early 20s, tall and skinny, dark brown hair and blue eyes, with a skull tattoo on the back of his left hand, and piercings in his nose and lips. He was wearing a red, blue and black Fox brand coat. Constable Carlvin Burgins is leading the investigation. “Officers are investigating, and we’re hoping to get some tips from the public,” said Const. Sawbridge. “We’re hoping someone recognizes this person and calls us.” Anyone with information related to this case is asked to call the Renfrew OPP at 1-888-3101122, or 613-432-3211. Parents are asked to review personal safety messages with their children. The OPP’s website of www.opp.ca contains a number of useful resources to assist with that discussion.
Services available locally for victims of crimes EMC news – The Renfrew OPP thank Victim Services of Renfrew County (VCARS) for all it does for victims of crimes and tragedies in local communities. Victim services volunteers are available to provide on-site immediate assistance through police or fire referrals. With consent, the police will call the Victim Services office. A team of trained volunteers can be dispatched to provide immediate help and emotional support. They can also refer victims to agencies that can give longer-term support. REFERRALS
The services are available 24 hours a day,
seven days a week. If you have an immediate need for services that you cannot afford, VCARS will refer you to the Victim Quick Response Program. When you are the victim of a violent crime, this program can provide you with: • immediate, short-term counseling services; • funeral expenses for victims of homicide; • immediate emergency expenses, such as childcare or transportation. Services are available to eligible victims of violent crimes who apply within 14 days of reporting an incident. Victim Services are available to all victims of crimes, fires or tragic circumstances. Speak to any police officer for more information.

New name, same smiling faces The Arnprior Community Safety Partnership (formerly Arnprior Community Policing) held a giant garage sale at the Arnprior Legion May 4 to raise funds and promote awareness of the organization’s community efforts. Getting ready for the sale, from left, are, Margaret Dupuis, Bill Kirby, Geraldine Lynn, fly-swatting Bernie Lynn and Cindy Kirby. The group has changed its name and modified its focus slightly, but still sticks to its motto of “citizens helping citizens.” The partnership has closed its office in the mall to save money, but is continuing with projects that aim to enhance public safety in Arnprior. They will be back on the Pumpkin Patrol this Halloween and will be helping with the Legion’s Santa Claus parade. They also assist the OPP in several campaigns, including bicycle safety and protection of seniors in a variety of areas including pills and spills. The group, as its name indicates, is also looking to partner with more organizations in town to promote its citizen safety goals.

EMC news - Don’t know what to do with the endless piles of beer bottles following May long weekend? Bring them back to the Beer Store and donate the funds to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada. In a partnership with the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 12R2, all the Beer Stores across Ontario, including Arnprior’s, are holding the Returns for Leukemia bottle drive on May 25 and 26. Volunteers will ask customers to donate part or all of their empty bottles to help the organization. All donated funds stay in Canada and go towards research and patient care. “The first year we did it, we were ecstatic to raise $250,000 and then it just escalated over the past six years after that,” said Beer Store president Ted Moroz. “Last year, it was $1.7 million that we

raised.” This year’s goal is to raise a million dollars, but anything over that would be greatly welcome. “We just think that’s a great number,” said Moroz. “We’ve been on such a great roll that we keep beating last year’s numbers. We just hold a million dollars as a target and if we beat it, that’s great.” The Beer Store isn’t a stranger to fundraising and holds many events throughout the year, but the bottle drive is the largest, said Moroz. The union workers have been raising money for the illness for more than two decades, but the partnership has been relatively recent. Last year, 3,000 volunteers, composed of employees, their family and community members, helped out collecting funds. “They are just awesome people that really care about their community and giving back,” said Moroz. More information on the bottle drive or how to become a volunteer can be found at bottledrive.ca.

During National Medical Laboratory Week April 28 to May 4, the Eastern Ontario Regional Laboratory Association held a celebration to thank and honour laboratory staff at Arnprior Regional Health. Did you know that while laboratory costs in Ontario equal about four per cent of the health care budget, laboratory results can equal up to 70 per cent of a patient file and up to 85 per cent of a patient diagnosis? A pathologistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report is required in 100 per cent of the cancer patient treatment decisions. While staff may often work behind the scenes, their work is vital, and Arnprior Regional Health was proud to recognize them with this special event.

Pride girls fourth in province EMC sports – The U14 edition of the Valley Pride girls basketball team had a successful conclusion to their season with a fourth-place finish at the Ontario Cup. The provincial championship tournament was held in Ottawa April 1214. The girls played a strong game Friday but lost a close contest to the second-seeded St. Thomas Shock 38-31. A great performance on Saturday morning against number-three Oxford Attack resulted in a five-point win for
the Pride (39-34), followed by a 5128 victory against the Peterborough Power, clinching a spot in the playoff round. In the semi-finals, the Pride played their hearts out but lost 42-34 against the eventual champions from Kemptville. In the bronze medal game, the Pride had another shot at the St. Thomas Shock but fell 36-33 to wind up in fourth place. “Congratulations to all the girls on their hard work all season.”
Frequently asked lawn bowling questions EMC sports - Galetta Bowls invites everyone out to try the “fantastic sport” of lawn bowls this season. Here are answers to the most frequently asked questions about bowls: 1. What ages can play the sport of bowls? Any one from age 9 to over 90 years of age can successfully play lawn bowls. Galetta Bowls club provides visitors with a range of sizes and weights of bowls (including junior bowls) to fit any size hand and physical ability. 2. So you don’t need to have bluerinsed white hair to play bowls? You can play bowls with green hair, no hair, long hair, frizzy hair, short hair, bad hair, a toupee - everyone and every hair style is welcome at Galetta Bowls. 3. What physical condition do you have to be in to play bowls? A game of bowls lasts about two hours and involves walking up and down the green and bending to throw your bowls. If you can do these two things it’s very likely you can lawn bowl. 4. Is lawn bowls an expensive sport? Lawn bowls is an inexpensive sport. For under $70 you can play bowls in all Galetta’s draws for the whole season lasting from May until September. Evening draws start at 6:15 Mondays (except for statutory holidays), Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Galetta’s Friday morning draw starts at 9:45. Members of Galetta Bowls can practice on the green just about any time. Entry fees to bowls tournaments at clubs in the district are usually around $10. 5. What kind of equipment do I need to get started playing lawn bowls? Flat soled shoes without a heel are required to protect the grass. Galetta Bowls will provide you with bowls to get you started. Most bowlers eventually buy their own set of fours bowls (either used or new) once they are sure what size and type of bowl they prefer.

There will be a novice clinic for all novice bowlers in our district and there are several tournaments just for novice bowlers. 8. When does Galetta’s lawn bowls season begin?

WATER RESTRICTIONS The Watering Restrictions By-law 04-14 is designed to regulate and control the usage of water, within the Almonte Ward, in the hot summer months. Between May 1st and September 30th each year there are limitations on who can water and at what time. Odd number houses may water on odd calendar days and even numbered houses may water on even numbered days. Watering may occur between the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. each day and from only one connection. Midday is the hottest time of the day and the water is more likely to be wasted through evaporation when watering at this time. Watering from more than one connection simply uses too much water at once. A significant amount of new grass or sod is exempted from these provisions for one week. Any other violations of the by-law may result in a fine.

She was driving to work at a pharmacy in Almonte at the time of the accident. Since her death, the family has raised funds to help others realize Katrina’s dream – to complete a college education.

Valley Concert Band to hold Arnprior show for CPAN EMC events – The Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network (CPAN) is delighted that the Valley Concert Band has decided to donate the proceeds of an Arnprior concert next week to help fight poverty in the area. “We are very honoured to be the charity of choice for the upcoming concert,” said CPAN co-ordinator Lyn Smith. The concert will take place Thursday, May 23 at 7:30 p.m. in Emmanuel Anglican Church’s Carlton Reid hall. Admission is by a free-will donation with all proceeds going to CPAN. “Please come to the event, learn about CPAN, and local child poverty while enjoying great entertainment,” said Smith. “Together we can improve lives of many local children, one child at a time.” Smith proudly announced last week that CPAN now has more 500 individual members and 61 member organizations. “We have come a long way from the beginning, in 2000,” she said. She explained that Joanne King, Felicite Stairs and Greg Lubimiv decided action was needed after attending a meeting to discuss the Child Poverty Report Card. They were shocked to learn that child poverty rates had increased, and not decreased, following the promise by the government of Canada to eliminate child poverty by 2000. They decided right there and then to take action by

making change by taking action, said Smith. “We haven’t changed much, but the volume of work, programs and awareness has,” she added. “It is not surpris-
ing to learn that our name was chosen to reflect that we are a grassroots action-orientated network.” CPAN has grown substantially, having a large and di-
verse network of caring individuals and organizations who work together to improve the lives of children in need. “We do this in several ways, always with dignity and respect, and lots of help love and assistance from our wonderful community,” said Smith. “We offer practical assistance programs to help immediately, we educate others about child poverty, and we advocate for systemic change, items, and services.” CPAN’s objective is to give every child the opportunity to reach their full potential in life, despite their status. Children living in poverty have higher drop-out rates; they are also less likely to transition to post-secondary school. CPAN helps provide the tools they need to learn. Backpack Plus provides a backpack, supplies and shoes for more than 1,200 children per year thanks to many donations, including those collected at Arnprior schools and businesses. “We know what a huge difference this makes by the feedback we receive from parents,” said Smith. “Operation Snowsuit helps keep our children warm and dry, by providing snowsuits, boots, hats and gloves. “This program was created so that all children can fully participate in outdoor activities, such as recess, play, and walking to and from school. This past winter we had 329 requests and were able to fill them all thanks to the generosity of our Renfrew
County community.” The School Inclusion Project (SIP) assists by providing help for school fees. SIP was created in response to focus groups held with local low income families throughout the county including Arnprior. Smith noted that parents voiced concern their children felt excluded when they couldn’t afford hot lunches, agendas and to pay for school trips. The SIP program is working well in eight schools, as it gives parents the opportunity to help other parents that are struggling, she said, adding that other schools are welcome to join. “This year we are working toward every school having an edible garden so that all children can have the opportunity to learn how to grow, prepare, and what the benefits are of eating nutritious food,” she said, adding that the skills will stay with them for life. “We believe that by supporting our children now, we will be creating a healthy, caring, and robust community for us all,” said Smith. “If you would like to be part of our great network, please visit our website at www.renfrewcountycpan.ca.” She stressed that CPAN is not government-funded, but relies solely on grants, donations and fundraising. “We are extremely thankful that the Phoenix Centre for Children and Families hosts CPAN and provides in-kind support, allowing us to stretch every dollar,” she said.

Arnprior Brownies build birdhouses with help from dads EMC lifestyle - The fourth Arnprior Brownies were busy assembling bird houses at their regular meeting last week. The girls were working on their wood-working badge and were able to have some bonding time with a special male role model in their lives. The girls learned the tasks
of hammering, drilling, gluing, cutting and sanding. Dads, grandfathers and other male role models were on hand to help guide and assist the girls in this project. They were excited with the end result and hope the birds will appreciate the time and effort they have put into them.
The Brownies thank Ontario Wide Lumber from White Lake for their generous donation of all the wood needed for this project as well as Dave Reid for cutting everything for the girls. The Guiding season is coming to an end in Arnprior. A total of 49 girls and volunteers are heading to Camp
Opemikon in June for their ďŹ nal camp of the season and held a closing advancement ceremony and pot-luck planned Wednesday, May 15. To register your girl (ages 5 and up) for next September, visit www.girlguides.ca. You can register now to secure a spot for the upcoming year.

Emerson has big ideas for Grampa’s visit to Northcote EMC lifestyle - We were soon to find out why Emerson was so anxious for a visit from Grampa, who lived in Ottawa and came out to Northcote often. He drove a car with a rumble seat in it, and he never failed to pile us five kids in the back, and tear down the Northcote Side Road like someone possessed. Only three could sit on the seat at one time, so two of us had to crouch on the floor. That was usually Earl and me. But Grampa always stopped at Briscoe’s General Store to buy us penny candy, and that’s when he made us change places, so that we each got a turn on the seat. I thought it was a car like no other. The running boards had real rubber on them, and there was a little patch of rubber over the back fender where you stepped to gain entry to the rumble seat. And along the roof, inside the car, there were two hooks, and on these hooks Grampa carried a long black umbrella. It was the biggest umbrella I had ever seen. He said he used it if rained while he was lawn bowling in Westboro. When Grampa visited, and after we had had our ride down the Northcote Side Road, he spent the rest of his time with Mother, his only daughter, who he thought didn’t belong on a farm in the backwoods of Renfrew County. It was on one of those visits that Emerson was more anxious than usual to get our ride over with, and see Grampa settled in the kitch-
Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK en with Mother. He made sure the teacups were on the kitchen table, the kettle was boiling on the Findlay Oval, and he knew Grampa would be in the kitchen for a spell. I saw him go over to the car, and open the door on the driver’s side, and gently take the big black umbrella down off the hooks. I had no idea what he had in mind, because it certainly wasn’t raining, and it was as hot as blazes with not a cloud in the sky. EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME
It didn’t take Emerson long to drag me into the mystery, by telling me I was going to have the experience of a lifetime. One I would never forget. Little did I know how truthful those words would turn out to be! If I had had an ounce of brains, I would have headed for the hay loft. But Emerson made this venture sound so ex-
citing, I was soon waiting to see what he had in mind. We went behind the house where the summer kitchen was attached to the wood shed. Father kept a stepladder there to patch the roof when the leaks got so bad Mother threatened to head back to New York if he didn’t fix them. The shed roof was flat as a plate, and Emerson said it was from that very roof I was going to have the experience of a lifetime. Had I been a bit smarter, I would have known what he was up to ... with the big black umbrella in his hand, ordering me up the ladder. He was right behind me, making it impossible for me to change my mind. He opened the umbrella, which I thought was as big as a tent, and ushered me to the very back of the shed roof. He took a piece of paper out of his overall’s pocket. He unfolded it, and scanned it as if it held some important information. All I could see was a bunch of lines, and what looked like clouds. Emerson squinted, and spit on his thumb and held it in the air. I had no idea what he was doing. “Perfect,” he said. “Now you hold this umbrella as high as you can over your head. And run ... and I mean run, and when you hit the end of the roof, you’ll go sailing off just like an aeroplane. “The umbrella will carry you. I’d love to do
it first, but I think I’m a bit too heavy. “According to my drawings, you are the perfect weight to go soaring through the air. And don’t worry about landing, you’ll lit in the grass beside the pump.” I looked at my brother, and looked at the roof, and looked up into the open umbrella, and before I could voice my objections, Emerson gave me a shove, and I was off and running. SHORT-LIVED FLIGHT
I hit the edge of the roof in two seconds, and me and umbrella were airborne. Well, it didn’t take long for the umbrella to collapse like a piece of newspaper, and I landed on the hard ground, miles away from the green grass around the pump, with the umbrella covering me like a tarpaulin. I was sure I had broken every bone in my body! Father was just coming out of the barn to witness my flight, and he was over to the shed in a shake. Emerson was nowhere to be seen. My knees were covered with dirt, I skinned my hand on landing, and Father determined there were no broken bones. He picked up the broken umbrella and walked around the shed to the kitchen. I was right behind him. Without any explanation, he handed Grampa the umbrella, and all he said was: “Sometimes I think that lad doesn’t have the brains God gave a goose.”

The second annual AbbVie Scholarship Program is designed to reward and empower students living with Crohnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and ulcerative colitis. The assistance will encourage students to live well with IBD so that they can excel at their personal and academic goals, as well as to raise awareness about this chronic illness. The deadline for students to apply for the scholarship opportunity is June 30.

with IBD, Canada has amongst the highest incidence rates in the world, yet there is no cure, no known cause, and little public understanding of the pain, chronic suffering and isolation IBD patients courageously cope with every day of their lives. A recent survey conducted by the CCFC revealed that 69 per cent of Canadians affected by IBD said that they were delayed in completing their post-secondary education due to their illness, and nearly 90 per cent who lived with the disease since birth felt that they could have achieved more at school without their disease. To help combat this issue, the CCFC and AbbVie launched the scholarship program, offeriing seven one-time scholarships of up to $5,000 to students living with the disease.

Off-road vehicle deaths mount during holiday weekend Continued from Page 46
According to the OPP, this mindset was a significant contributing factor in the 12 fatal off-road vehicle incidents in 2012 (within OPP
jurisdiction). OPP S.A.V.E. Team and other OPP officers will be keeping a keen eye out this weekend for operators who are non-compliant with off-road vehicle laws. Over the weekend, the OPP will also be
watching for impaired drivers and boaters, people who drive aggressively or distracted and those who are in violation of occupant restraint laws. The OPP is also reminding motorists to be mindful about Ontario’s Move Over law that

OPP can’t keep everyone safe in every situation Continued from Page 47
“We need people to get away from thinking that as long as there is a strong police presence on roads, waterways and trails on long weekends, officers can keep everyone safe,” said Deputy Commissioner Larry Beechey
“We want to see drivers, boaters and trail users themselves take charge of how they behave behind the wheel and in doing so, many lives will be saved,” he added. “Operating a motor vehicle, boat or off-road vehicle within the law is a far better alternative than dealing
with the life-changing consequences that begin to unfold the second a person makes a bad decision behind the wheel and lives are senselessly brought to a tragic end,” said Chief Superintendent Don Bell,

Burnstown real estate office holds grand opening celebration
Cheryl GALLANT
Your Member of Parliament Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke Constituency Office 84 Isabella St. Pembroke ON K8A 5S5 (Tel) 613-732-4404 (Fax) 613-732-4697
www.cherylgallant.com Leadership on the economy is something that average Canadians, those who work hard, obey the law and pay their taxes, understand. While there are many benefits to the passing of Budget 2013 for the people in the great Riding of RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke, I intend to focus on those aspects of this important statement of Federal Government Economic policy that is of interest to my constituents. A number of my Parliamentary colleagues are proud of the many immediate, beneficial measures in this budget, such as how municipalities, seniors, veterans and students for example, will benefit, I focused on the future, and why the sound economic policy in this budget is so important for the future prosperity of the Ottawa Valley and our nation. Innovation Valley North Innovation Valley North is what the Upper Ottawa Valley will become by adopting the measures in this budget. Innovation Valley North represents jobs of the future, and the long-term economic future of the Upper Ottawa Valley, Eastern Ontario and Canada. Innovation Valley North in the Ottawa Valley is the combined impacts of the Defence and Nuclear industry and Aerospace industries coming together to respond to the various initiatives announced in budget 2013. Their synergy has the potential to create new employment and sustain existing jobs as our local economy positions itself to take advantage of such budget measures as the almost $1 billion in the Strategic Aerospace and Defence Initiative (SADI) to enhance the competitiveness of Canada’s economically important aerospace and defence industries, which include businesses like Allen-Vanguard Inc. in Pembroke. By encouraging new Innovations in Canada’s Aerospace Sector , and by creating the Aerospace Technology Demonstration Programs ($110 million over five years, beginning in 2014-15, and $55 million each year after), we will support large-scale technology projects with commercial potential for companies like Magellan Aerospace in Haley Station and Arnprior Aerospace. Critical to the “Innovation Valley North” is the hub, the ideas generator which turn in to new employers. In the upper Ottawa Valley we are very fortunate to have two hubs that form the nucleus of Innovation Valley North. The first hub is the Chalk River Laboratories of Atomic Energy of Canada. Budget 2013 invests $144 million in the continued operation of AECL’s Chalk River Laboratories to ensure Canada has a reliable supply of medical isotopes. This investment in the future of AECL represents a vote of confidence in AECL, and its 2700 local employees to complement the previous announcement made by our government to continue the process of modernization at the Chalk River Laboratories by moving to a Government-owned, Contractor operator (GoCo) governance model.
Innovation Valley North in the upper Ottawa Valley is a partnership, taking advantage of the AECL platform of knowledge, assisted by many initiatives announced in Budget 2013. This is all about putting in place the conditions for Canada’s knowledge Industry to thrive. During the decade of darkness under the old government, AECL was directionless and starved for funding, just like our military was. Throughout the late 1990s AECL could not even complete a budget, its future was so uncertain. You cannot build a future on false promises. As a consequence, the 1990s was a lost decade of opportunity for Canada’s nuclear industry.
The Canadian Nuclear industry has a critical role to play in climate change and the economy, to keep the price of electricity affordable and protect the air we breathe. The second hub in the upper Ottawa Valley that has the best potential is CFB Petawawa. Our government is committed to providing our men and women in uniform with the best equipment to do the many tasks we ask them to do on our behalf. It only makes sense for defence procurement to support economic opportunities for all Canadians. As “Training Ground of the Warriors”, Canadian Forces Base Petawawa, the people of Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke have greatly benefited from the implementation of our Conservative Government’s Canada First Defence Strategy. Our Canada First strategy reversed the “decade of darkness,” the hollowing out of our military by the old government the voters of Canada wisely replaced in 2006. The opportunity exists for more local civilian work, aided by our Government’s Eastern Ontario Development program and budget 2013 providing $920 million to renew the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern and Eastern Ontario (FedDev Ontario). Since its creation in 2009, FedDev Ontario has supported over 340 projects and has played an important role in building a stronger economy in Eastern Ontario. As part of the renewal of FedDev Ontario, $200 million will be invested in a new Advanced Manufacturing Fund to help the province’s manufacturing industry innovate and become more competitive. The Innovation Valley North potential is here, brimming with potential. As your Federal Member of Parliament I am ready to work together to help make our future dreams a reality. Can I count on your support? As your Federal Member of Parliament, I am pleased to represent you on a variety of issues. Whether that issue is eliminating the long gun registry, promoting agriculture, international trade, AECL, the military or jobs in the working forest, I am here to serve you! As always, if you have any concerns of a federal nature, or just want to share your views with me, please do not hesitate to contact my office. Office contact information: Constituent Office of Cheryl Gallant, MP, 84 Isabella St, Pembroke ON, K8A 5S5 or call 613-732-4404.

PUBLIC WORKS & ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
The field of nuclear science and technology has potential for innovation in clean energy technologies, both directly related to nuclear energy and in strategic areas of technology overlap such as hydrogen technologies. The next generation of nuclear reactors, generation four technologies, will reduced capital cost, enhance nuclear safety, minimize generation of nuclear waste and further reduce of the risk of weapons proliferation through the use of natural uranium. Budget 2013 provides $325 million to support the development and demonstration of new, clean technologies in Ontario and across Canada that create savings for Canadian businesses and support job creation for Canadians. One of the by-products of a generation four power reactor is hydrogen, which can be used as a clean fuel for vehicles, or to be stored until needed for other uses. When hydrogen is used as fuel in an internal combustion engine modified to use hydrogen, water is what comes out the tailpipe.

A Government Owned Contactor Operated (GOCO) model of governance, following the U.S. and British practice, provides for a proven, cost effective, high accountability approach to management and operations of a national laboratory. A GOCO partnership shares the risk between government and the private sector. It allows each partner to perform duties for which it is uniquely suited: the government establishes mission areas and sets performance target, and the private sector implements the missions using best business practices that ensure simultaneous excellence—excellent technology solutions delivered by the best scientists, engineers and managers; excellent operations, protecting employees, the public and the environment; and excellent community involvement, contributing to important economic needs. A comprehensive program of technology transfer and commercialization implemented by the Chalk River National Nuclear Laboratory would sustain, attract and/or create companies and employment in the upper Ottawa Valley as a technology research and development hub.
EMC business – A real estate company has set up shop in Burnstown. Prime Valley Realty held its grand opening April 27, with the office’s broker of record, Pat Forrest, pleased to see past clients, friends, family, potential clients and Burnstown neighbours, stop in to help with the celebration. Prime Valley Realty has been in business since last August and currently has Joanne McCallion as its sales representative. “Full service, full value, full commitment” is the company motto. The grand opening event was catered by Christine’s Kitchen and the food was the talk of the afternoon, said Forrest. “Wraps and dips, including gluten-free selections, and chocolate covered strawberries were just a few of the delights … the cake was a marvellous creation that was half carrot cake and half lemon curd layer cake – what an excellent combination.” Forrest extended a special thank you to Barb Vincent for tending the office’s flower gardens and making the grounds look brighter for spring. Veteran professional photographer Shawna Phillipson took some “amazing” pictures of the food, the people, and the new office, she said. Visit www.PrimeValleyRealty. com/2013/openhouse/ to view the pictures. Everyone also had a chance to fill in a ballot to win prizes. Prime Valley Realty thanked the following for sponsoring gifts: mortgage broker and co-owner of Ottawa Mortgage Advisors Christa Tessier (two gift baskets with a bottle of red and white wine in each); home

Armed man robs Eganville Credit Union EMC news - The Northern Credit Union’s Eganville branch was the victim of an armed robber last Friday. The suspect, who struck shortly before 6 p.m., fled with an undisclosed amount of cash. He is described as being a Caucasian male, between 5’2” and 5’7” of muscular build, wearing a
black ball cap, dark hooded sweater, black running shoes and baggy, cotton, black and white plaid pants. He was carrying a lime green oversized lunch cooler. OPP believe a stolen red Dodge pick-up abandoned just east of Eganville may be related to the robbery.

EMC lifestyle – What a better way to spend a Friday night than dancing the night away with good friends? Well, come out to our last regular tween dance of the school year (the last one is a Much Music Dance) to party it up Ottawa Valley style at our Country Western themed dance. May 24 is the night where we can wear our cowboy boots, hats and denim and dance to the hottest twang as well as our regular favourites. Dance tickets are available now at Nick Smith Centre until the Thursday before the dance. They cost $5 in advance and $10 at the door. Parents, we need your help. Our dances run smoothly, with it being zero tolerance and adult-chaperoned, but we need to have the
adults there to chaperone. If you have a clear police records check and can help out to volunteer that night, you need to contact Kayla prior to the dance. Help is appreciated as we continue to grow these dances. Our Girlforce Me Time program starts this Thursday and it has filled up weeks ago. This program is proudly sponsored by Northern Credit Union in Arnprior. In this program, girls get to learn about themselves, how great they are and all about self-esteem issues. The program leads into our annual Sleepover for Self Esteem on Friday, June 7 from 6-10 p.m. Thanks to the support from Northern Credit Union we can offer this program to all girls in Grades 4-8, where we will have delicious food, watch a movie, and learn about tons of different things like media

Dreams come true for actress in The Wizard of Oz Twin Rivers
EMC entertainment – It’s a timeless story – a young girl runs away and is swept into a magical land of enchanted forests and fantastical characters only to discover there’s no place like home. Kanata’s Colleen Campbell will soon find herself in the land of winkies and wizards, as she steps into the ruby slippers of the beloved character of Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, based on the 1939 Oscarwinning film and the story by L. Frank Baum. The third annual production from Two Rivers Musical Productions comes to the stage in Arnprior on June 6-8. For the Algonquin College graduate, getting to play Dorothy is proof that dreams you dare to dream really do come true. “Ever since I was a little girl I’ve wanted to be Dorothy,” says Campbell. “When I was about six years old I asked my father who was a better singer: Judy Garland or myself. Of course his reply was Judy Garland. I decided to prove him wrong and be just as good, if not better.
“While I will never be as amazing as Judy Garland, I hope to remind people of her just a little, and to put a tear in Daddy’s eye.” Beyond her beautiful singing voice, Campbell brings a sweetness to her portrayal of Dorothy that echoes the original and provides a fresh take on the character. “Colleen has an openness, natural comic timing and playful quality that really draw you into the story,” says Dunrobin’s Ron Gardner, who is the director of The Wizard of Oz. “She also has the confidence and experience to get the most out of those spontaneous, small moments that make live theatre so exciting to watch.” Let’s see – there’s being literally blown into a strange new land, encountering talking trees, helping new friends with some serious issues and evading an evil Wicked Witch with an axe to grind, all while trying to get home to Kansas. Add in the special effects, some very hairy co-stars and a lot of physical choreography, and the stage is set for more than a few memorable moments in the journey down the
Yellow Brick Road. And, while W.C. Fields may have warned against it, Campbell loves working with Clicker, an adorable Cairn Terrier from Carp who plays the role of Toto. “She has such a fun little personality that it is challenging to stay composed at times,” says Campbell, who draws on her experience with animals as a veterinary technician. “But she adds so much to the dynamic on stage that I just try to stay in character and incorporate her reactions into the performance. She definitely knows where I hide the treats.” Campbell is thrilled to be part of the large ensemble cast of seasoned performers from across the Valley – from Ottawa and Dunrobin to Arnprior and Renfrew. “The cast is just incredible – hilarious and very talented. It really is an honour to be SUE KOCH/SUBMITTED working alongside such amazColleen Campbell of Kanata will share the role Dorothy with Mallory Brumm of Renfrew ing people.” The Wizard of Oz runs will in the Wizard of Oz, running June 6-8 in Arnprior.
