Standing up for seniors
You might want to sit down when the Ontario Health Coalition starts sharing facts and figures about longterm care homes. Don Arkell, left, and Peter Boyle were outside town hall June 3 with a giant rocking chair to tell pedestrians that 20,000 Ontario seniors are on a wait list for a home. The group also wants minimum standards brought back, similar to what the Mike Harris government removed in 1996.

Many in town are talking excitedly about new shops and restaurants opening, but did the overall retail situation improved these past few years? The answer is yes. Somewhat. According to Lindsay Wilson, marketing and development manager for the Town of Arnprior, the estimated vacant commercial space is at 6.8 per cent, down from 9.4 per cent about two years ago. The standard vacancy rate in a balanced market is between four and eight per cent, she added. There are a few new businesses downtown causing a lot of stir, starting with Krave Bistro. Two new clothing stores are also creating a buzz; Jade & Laney boutique and A Dash of Fab offer smart facades and interiors along with trending items customers would expect to find in Westboro. Others have taken advantage of municipal grants to upgrade storefronts, making for an overall cleaner and more modern down-

town. However, much of the talk around town of late is about the mall. Various letters to the editor have lamented empty spaces at the Arnprior Shopping Centre. The landlord, who lives in Toronto, has not returned reporter phone calls. And it seems a new low was hit recently when major tenant Hart was evicted for not paying rent – buckets were catching rainwater dripping from a hole in the roof - then hastily brought back in part as a damage control strategy. The Chronicle-Guide has learned the mall will be sold “as is� to an owner who plans to open a Canadian Tire as an anchor. John Manion owns the nearby Canadian Tire. He is referring inquires to the company’s media relations department. It could not be reached before deadline. There is no reason to believe Metro would be evicted if the deal comes through sometime later this year. But a significant reconfiguration of the existing building is expected. See ARNPRIOR, page 7

Owners melt chatter of a downtown Ice Cream War Derek Dunn
derek.dunn@metroland.com
The Gilks family, David Jr., Tyson, David Sr. and Penny enjoy an ice cream on a warm day. “We’ve always gone to the Ice Shack,” Dad said. Fouor and Mulvihill took over, The Ice Shack enjoyed a solid business at the corner of John and Madawaska streets, kiddy corner to the Arnprior District Museum. But the landlord, Anthony Pocket, didn’t. According to his son-in-law and co-owner of the Flavour Container, James Jack, the string of former owners at The Ice Shack didn’t do a good enough job cleaning up after themselves. They used refrigerators in The Gallery Gift Shop basement but left the place unkempt.
“He told the last owner that it was their last year (in 2014),” Jack said. “He didn’t want a bunch of people with access to the building. He wanted someone willing to invest in the corner.” Jack insists the new owners were aware of the situation. It was only over the winter that the owner of Bonnie Jane’s Coffee House, Tracey Fredricks, proposed an ice cream stand at the corner. When Pocket consented, she invited Jack to participate. Fredricks already uses the base-

Here’s the scoop: There is no Ice Cream War. Even though two ice cream stands are facing each other in downtown Arnprior; even though people are calling it an Ice Cream War on social media sites; the owners of both are in full agreement. There is no Ice Cream War. “I don’t know why people are calling it that,” said George Fouor, who co-owns The Ice Shack with Kevin Mulvihill. “We are all friends.” While no open warfare is underway between The Ice Shack and the newly-opened Flavour Container, miscommunication may have caused a Cold War. That’s because the upstart business is sitting where Fouor’s once was (and geopolitics is crucial to a cold war). The location happens to be the best place in town for an ice cream stand. “It is what it is,” Fouor said, shrugging his shoulders at his new spot squeezed next to a three-storey building on Madawaska Street. “People know us in that spot so we have to be here.” Up until this year, the same year

New record for Tim Hortons Camp Day with $41,000 raised Scott Campbell
scottcampbell@metroland.com
The Valley Tim Hortons restaurants broke a record by raising $41,000 June 3 on Camp Day. The annual day gives one hundred per cent of coffee sales to the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation (THCF) to help to send 18,000 kids from low-income homes on an amazing camp experience. Chris McClusky reports that the $41,000 was raised in the Arnprior and the four other Valley outlets his family own. Arnprior general manager Peggy Boudreau noted that three local children will have the chance to go to camp. She has been involved in the fundraiser since 2008 and has always brought along her supportive mother, Jean Morris, now 93-years old. The day was plenty busy for activities and for

employees. Local firefighters spent the morning squeegeeing car windows for donations while vehicles waited in drive-thru. The firefighters also gave a car wash and donated an additional $300 to the cause. All-For-One Entertainment offered the music for the day. Boudreau gave credit to them, the firefighters for their donated time along with all the workers, who took part in the day. A huge silent auction of 14 items was on display and statues on display from Alfonso Garden Ornaments and candle holders and wooden sculptures by the likes of Ryan Rosborough and Jeff Stot were featured. Leading up to the Camp Day, there had also been a bowl-a-thon, bottle-drive and garage sale. The first Tim Horton Children’s Foundation camp opened in Parry Sound in 1975 with just 200 kids. Today, the Foundation operates seven year-round camps across North America.

Through the first week of June, the Law Enforcement Torch Run moved through the area. The province-wide initiative is the largest fundraiser for Special Olympics Ontario.
Officers with the Ontario Provincial Police, the Ottawa Police, Provincial Corrections, Canada Border Services, and other law enforcement agencies all were involved. The run found its way through Arnprior on June 3 and managed to raise $477. According to Bill Dickson of the OPP, there were three torch bearers – Renfrew OPP In-
spector Colin Slight and local athletes Greg Murdoch and Steven Shane. They each were able to carry the ‘Flame of Hope’. All the funds raised through the run are directed to support community Special Olympic Ontario programs. Since 1987, in excess of $26 million is said to be raised for Special Olympics in just the province.

On trend clothing and more, the shop fills a niche that a few years ago seemed impossible. to lure boxstores to town – Walmart in particular. Reid doubts Walmart ever had a serious interest in moving to Arnprior. Geography is the town’s worst enemy. A huge river on one side, a booming western end of the capital city on another, and boxstores in Renfrew and Carleton Place keep customers there from travelling. Until the population increases more – which it is doing – the demographics aren’t large enough to support those types of businesses, he said. “It’s too soon for them, given our demographics,” Reid said. “And we can’t change where we are.” Still, he sees retail transitioning in Arnprior, even if it isn’t doing so as quickly as some would like. He praises the work done to implement recommendations in the Retail Demand Study. The municipality is
doing its part to create conditions where business will flourish, specifically when the downtown revitalization plan is complete. But government can only do so much. “At the end of the day we might not have as much influence over who comes to down as people think,” Reid said. A common fear is that Arnprior is evolving into just another bedroom community, not unlike what happened to Stittsville. That might be fine for attracting boxstores to set up next to the highway, but it does little to improve self sustainability. Reid flatly rejects the notion, and offers empirical evidence to bolster his position. “This is not a bedroom community at all. Arnprior has 900 net jobs. People are coming here to work,” he said. “There’s lots of opportunity for employment and for various lifestyles. That’s not the definition of a bedroom community.”

A few weeks ago a lady came to see me for her monthly follow-up visit. She had been in treatment for a while and is always keen to tell me what all happened during the last month. As we chatted, she starts laughing and says…”you know what?” looking me straight into my eyes with a smile from ear to ear. I said: “No, what?” full of anticipation. She said: “I felt really different after taking your powders last month”. I replied: “Oh, why!?” not knowing if this was going to be a good or bad thing. She said: “it took me two weeks to figure out what happoened!” I asked curious: “So, what happened?”. She started to tell me: “Well you know that I am such a perfectionist and such a worrier. I always worry. You know that! I can’t get out of bed worrying what may happen today, how the weather is going to be and if I can drive in the car in these conditions? Or what my kids are up to and how their boss is treating them. You know…I can’t stop worrying, right? I never do!? Her eyes dancing with this childish glimmer. “I am afraid of everything and carry the challenges of the world on my shoulders”, she continues. I said with a long questioning: “yeeeessss?” getting more curious by the second. And she laughed and said: “I was running around the house for two weeks feeling…well… feeling…like I forgot something…somewhere…it felt strange…but I knew I lost something”. Instinctively my face lit up and I knew what she was going to say. I felt the joy streaming through me as she continues her story: “I realized that I stopped worrying. Totally and completely…never ever, not when I woke up, it wasnt even a question to go for a drive…it was just the feeling I’ve lost something…and…” after a little pause she laught full of joy: “I’ve lost my worrying… my worries are gone…completely evaporated…it’s so amazing…and I can’t thank you enough”.

Other recent changes to the retail landscape include Valley Granite and Tile opening downtown on Elgin Street last summer; same with Green Bean Natural Foods taking over Natural Bulk’s spot; Sweet and Sassy moved to a larger and more visible location on John Street; The Downtown Spa shares the same spot; Angel’s Aura opened across from RBC; Braeside Home Furnishings opened a satellite location next door; Mr. Mozzarella is a franchise that took over from Big Daddy’s; and over on Madawaska Street You Never Know is in the same building as JC’s Hairstyling. On the move are My Chocolate Factory and Arnprior School of Dance. They’ll open together on McLaughlin Street, near William Street. (Word has it nearby Kenwood Centre is humming along nicely these days.) Gilks Signs & Trophies is moving from Daniel Street to the CV Tell building in McNab-Braeside, just outside town on River Road. The township also gained a public market when the Arnprior farmers’ market shut down. But it will lose business tax revenue now that Chevrier gas station on Calabogie Road, near Highway 17, is closed. Napa Autoparts is moving from its location across from Town Hall into a former car dealership next to Northern Credit Union on Madawaska Boulevard. The two Subways are under new ownership, as is the Quality Inn. Reid Bros. Collision Centre welcomes Uniglass to its Daniel Street location. Even the ice cream stand industry has doubled over the last year. There are two in the downtown core, facing one another. Recent closures include Towey’s fishing supplies store and the Belgian Creperie. Mayor David Reid, a developer by trade, has taken heat from some quarters for not doing more to boost the retail scene. Even long before his first term, there were calls

One vote kills private member’s bill for national dementia strategy P olitics in Canada has become a trite practice, one driven by partisan blindness that disallows healthy debate and, in some cases, common sense. Anyone who has ever watched House of Commons or Senate sessions in recent years understands that truth. As a result, people suffer. Sadly, people suffering from dementia will have to wait, once again, before the federal government decides to address one of the greatest problems associated with our nationĘźs aging population – dementia. It appears that, in the eyes of the Harper Conservative government, it is far more sexy, in an election year, to spend precious taxpayer dollars on television advertising reminding us how grateful we should be for a passel of beneďŹ ts than investing in the treasure that has built this country – our seniors – all seniors. Some brave Conservative MPs stepped up to the plate and voted May 6, 2015 for what they knew was the right thing to do, to support Private MemberĘźs Bill C-356 – An Act respecting a National Strategy for Dementia. House of Commons transcripts show how eloquently some spoke on the issue, even touching upon the thorny issue of how important national issues should transcend partisanship. At the end of the day, this vote came down to a very simple concept – caring for the most vulnerable among us. Hats off to the strong Conservative MPs who stood with their fellow MPs from other political parties to recognize the challenge and vote for a national strategy. Those members worthy of recognition are Mike Allen (Tobique-Mactaquac), Peter Goldring (Edmonton East), Larry Miller (BruceGrey-Owen Sound), David Tilson (DufferinCaledon), Brad Trost (Saskatoon-Humboldt), Maurice Vellacott (Saskatoon-Wanuskewin), Mark Warawa (Langley, B.C.), Rodney

Weston (Saint John) and Stephen Woodworth (Kitchener Centre). Despite their independent spirit and willingness to stand up for an often-neglected segment of their constituency, the bill was defeated by a single vote, 140 to 139. Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant was among those who voted against the bill. ItĘźs easy to go on grant-announcing (and reannouncing) tours to win favour with seniors who are active and carry a precious vote. Sadly, some politicians donĘźt seem nearly so concerned about vulnerable senior citizens who cannot defend their own interests. These Canadians, and their families, are equally deserving of attention, a national strategy and appropriate funding. The summer pre-election barbecue tour will likely see a lot of money being doled out, or promised. Gratitude for that support is a good thing and itĘźs always wonderful to see community groups get important, well-deserved funding. But no group should ever feel they have to go, cap in hand, to beg for money. After all, the basic role of government is to distribute taxpayer dollars, fairly. According to the Alzheimer Society of Canada, 747,000 Canadians have been diagnosed with dementia and that number will increase to 1.4 million by 2031. Bill C-356 was introduced by NDP MP Claude Gravelle whose mother lived with AlzheimerĘźs disease. Gravelle obviously has a very personal appreciation of the issue and understanding of the need for a national strategy. The B.C. Care Providers Association website notes Gravelle was part of a key panel at the groupĘźs 2014 annual conference entitled “National Dementia Strategy: What are we waiting for?â€? A federal election, it would appear.

Solar panels costing me money To the Editor: This is concerning the story in the May 21 Chronicle-Guide entitled ĘťSunny days ahead?Ęź I, for one, do not support the idea of solar panels in McNab-Braeside Township or anywhere else for that matter. The reasons are many. For one, it will take my tax dollars to buy them and install. For another they are ugly. The main reason is they do not produce even
one per cent on a good day to the grid. The last reason is my hydro bill. Every time I see solar panels on someoneĘźs property, I think You are the reason my hydro bill is so high. I believe we should try to ďŹ nd new ways to produce energy, but not if they donĘźt work. Oh, by the way, I donĘźt like windmills either. Heather Forrest Arnprior

It’s time for truth and reconciliation in Canada To the Editor: In Ottawa last week there was the Truth and Reconciliation Commission closing program of events. The Walk for Reconciliation May 31 had some 10,000 walking together, including some folks from Arnprior! There are many ways to access the results of these events that provide a good opportunity to experience and learn, how, in many cases, seven consecutive generations of families, were deliberately broken apart, through Canadian public policy. Many of us, non-aboriginal citizens, think of the various places we grew up in familial safety and love, where we never even heard or knew about what was happening to our near neighbours. It is a sad testament that the voices of injustice by many people aboriginal and non-aboriginal were silenced and ignored. As Marie Wilson, TRC Commissioner, said (paraphrased) “How many voices have to speak out to awaken the hearts of Canadians?â€? The abuses are horriďŹ c and affected the millions of indigenous peoples with broken homes, broken hearts, helpless at the time to stop it, hoping at the time that this horror would not reach them. But it did. The stories are as horriďŹ c as any in the holocaust. But today, as shown on May 31, there is so much strength, welcome, leadership, care & respect coming together. Now is the beginning to heal these hurts and the terrible rifts it has created between the peoples of Canada. The questions to be answered by every individual and community are many starting with, “How do we heal these realities? How do we stop the legacy of hatred that in-

It is imperative that we all become guardians to ensure the 94 recommendations of the report are implemented at the local, provincial and federal levels of our society.

The 8TH FIRE is a provocative, high-energy journey through Aboriginal country showing you why we need to ďŹ x CanadaĘźs 500 year-old relationship with Indigenous peoples; a relationship mired in colonialism, conict and denial.

How can we prevent this from happening ever again on Canadian soil?â€? It is not easy to listen with an open heart. It might touch something in us that speaks to our own pain and oppression. Yet, at this time in Canada we are being called to have the courage to change one thought, one belief, one word that is judgmental and/or degrading to CanadaĘźs First Peoples. Then with the silencing of past voices of hate, someday, hopefully today, the courage to listen to the stories may be realized as a gift not a condemnation. The sentiment of Mary Lunney provides a vision of moving forward to a new story of Canada: “For me, by uniting with all these beautiful people in the 5 k walk,

As for McEwenĘźs quote for the removal of these trees, I am not at liberty to reveal that information. However, I can say that it is not just the property developer telling fairy tales. The amount of $25,000 quoted would clear 10 to 12 lots in the same manner. Judith Gardiner B.A. Arnprior

my father. Now she’s promised over 2,000 new jobs-which won’t make up for the 3,000 jobs which are at risk because of the government’s off loading of the company. Not that her government particularly cares about AECL. They’ve given the lab just enough to renew its license for the next few years but not enough to buy new equipment. Further Chalk River is in desperate need of a new reactor, and storage facilities, neither of which were forthcoming in her government’s budget. Why would they be? After all Prime Minister Harper said in 2009 that he was getting Canada out of the Nuclear Industry. Not only that be relocating the production of isotope alternatives to his native province of Alberta. One thing she has right is that Nu-
clear technology (we don’t produce power in our riding here Mrs. Gallant) is that it is relatively clean and safe. Only when it is properly maintained and repaired. When it isn’t-that’s when accidents happen and that’s why the industry has a poor record. Although she has voted against recognizing infrastructure is important of rural areas like ours (for some illogical reason mired in partisanship) it would be nice if she could see the light before the mushroom cloud on this particular part of our infrastructure. Hopefully someone fixes the situation before she has to deal with some real fallout! Brendan Edge Arnprior

To the Editor: The “Nuclear Caucus” of the Conservative Party of Canada is a group of three individuals recently formulated, of whom Gallant is one. It is the first real position she’s held in her government since they took power and the first time she was a caucus chair since the dark days of Stockwell Day. Achieving the chairmanship is nothing to boast about. Nor is her government s record on the nuclear industry particularly as it relates to AECL Chalk River. Though she rarely attends the Commons when they are discussing AECL (missing the debates on the shutdowns in 2008 and 2009) she insists she represents our families who work there; including people like

Sealed submissions, clearly labeled RFT #2015-18, will be received before 2:00:00 PM, MONDAY, JUNE 29, 2015 and must be submitted to the following address:
To the Editor: This letter is in friendly response to the letter ‘Grove no place for at-large dogs’, written by Russ and Abigail Corbett of Arnprior (Chronicle-Guide, May 28). My name is Cricket and I am a Great Dane that is often “at-large” in the Grove. I have to say that upon first reading this term, I was a bit confused as it sounds as though I am a wanted fugitive; I believe a more politically correct term would be “off-leash.” I take liberty to speak for some of my off-leash friends (Maggie, Coady, Max, Duke and Bart, to name a few) when I say that when we are off-leash, we are still being obedient to our owners. In fact, when my owner sees someone approaching her on the trail, she tells me to stop (which I do) and she leashes me. I asked her once why she does this and she said, “Well Cricket, it is the respectful thing to do; after all, you are a big dog and people might be afraid of you.” Okay, that makes sense. And yes, some individuals, it’s true, don’t clean up after their dogs. And that’s a shame; it really is. Now, I walk that main trail every day in all four seasons and it’s true that I see the occasional deposit (and I can probably tell you by smell who left it!), but again, the majority of dog owners are responsible for their dogs and clean up after them. I also noticed that there are many people in this world who still litter! I often see my owner pick up coffee cups, water bottles, pop cans and so forth (funny how no one throws away a Timbit, just say’n). I suppose a solution would be to form a “littering park,” but you know, at the end of the day, there will always be people who just don’t get it, and other people who pick up the slack. Oh, a special note here: I would love a dog park for Arnprior; it would be pretty cool to be able to meet and
play with so many friends, but I would still want to take my walk every day through the Grove (plus my owner likes the exercise!). I used to walk the Macnamara Trail with my owner, but ever since the rule of no dogs was put into place, we’ve stopped going. I kind of think that’s a shame and thought that perhaps a good solution would be to have designated “dog days” where people with dogs could still enjoy the beautiful trail, but alas, I was told that “dogs scare away the wildlife.” Again, I was confused and so asked my owner, “Don’t people scare away the wildlife too?” and she said, “No Cricket, when I go to the trail without you, all the deer, raccoons and bunnies surround me like Snow White.” I think she was being sarcastic (why can’t humans figure out dogs sometimes struggle with sarcasm?) I would also invite everyone to respect the wishes of those who spent years to raise one half million dollars to purchase the Grove; in fact, imagine how many people (mostly silent) contributed to save it? I bet many, many of those people were dog owners, as well as bird lovers and nature lovers or people who are just plain proud of Arnprior’s heritage. Some people may say that I don’t know much, after all, I’m just a dog, but after experiencing all of the many, many wonderful people who pat me on the head when I walk by, smile and comment on my size, stop to pet me, say to their kids, “Look at the size of that horse!” (I really get that a lot!), I’ve learned one very important thing: The bottom line is that most people are good and kind-hearted and they truly love and honour the “heart” of Arnprior.

Child poverty rates growing in Arnprior Scott Campbell
scottcampbell@metroland.com
Arnprior has one of the highest child poverty rates in Renfrew County with many children living with families that have low income, but poverty exists in some form in every town in
the county. This is according to statistics collected by Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network (CPAN) co-ordinator Lyn Smith. That’s why contributions such as the one given by the St. John Chrysostom Catholic Women’s League (CWL) are so important, she said.

The CWL set out on an initiative ‘Change for change’, explained president Joan Kelly. The congregation at the Arnprior church was asked to give any change money they had in their pockets. The end result was $840.20, which they decided to donate to fight child poverty locally. “These ladies are prime example of champions in the community,� said a grateful Smith. It was noted that this was the fifth time that the Women’s League has donated to CPAN. Kelly said the funds are targeted for backpacks for kids when they head to school. The backpacks will be filled with supplies as well. CPAN was created back in 2000 with the focus of taking action on child poverty in the county. The network has expanded on social media and offers advocacy and education on the topic. Smith, who has an office in Pembroke, is considering opening a satellite office in Arnprior to help with combating the rapidly rising child poverty rates in this end of the county.

There is good reason why that never hap- Park. Currently flying are several species of Baspened. Dragonflies, like their smaller cousins, damselflies, spend a year in the water as kettails, which sport gray-brown eyes and nymphs, remaining submerged and breathing rather plain wings that often bear a brown patch near their base.

An increase in ticks prompts a health alert for Lyme disease Beware the dreaded ticks. The Public Health Agency of Canada has issued an alert urging people to cover up when outdoors in the woods or tall grass to protect themselves from the growing threat of Lyme disease. If not identified and treated early, Lyme disease can cause serious health issues. But there are simple and effective measures people can take to protect against it, says the health agency in a news release. Lyme disease can be spread by the bite of infected blacklegged ticks, whose populations are growing across the county.
This means that the risk of contracting Lyme disease is on the rise across Canada, including eastern Ontario. Blacklegged ticks can be active throughout much of the year. However, the risk of a tick bite is highest in the spring and summer months. People can come into contact with ticks while participating in outdoor activities, such as golfing, hiking, camping or gardening. Contact occurs when people and animals brush up against the vegetation found in forests and the overgrown areas between the woods and open spac-
es. As ticks are very small and their bites are usually painless, you may not know you’ve been bitten, so it’s important to be on the look-out for ticks and the symptoms of Lyme disease. Canadians are encouraged not to let the fear of ticks deter them from being active and spending time outdoors, but they should remember to protect themselves against tick bites by taking simple steps: • wear closed-toe shoes, long-sleeved shirts and pants; • pull socks over pant legs to prevent ticks from crawling up legs;
• wear light-coloured clothes to spot ticks easier; • use insect repellents that contain DEET (active ingredient to keep bugs away) or Icaridin. Repellents can be applied to clothing as well as exposed skin. Always read and follow label directions; • shower or bathe within two hours of being outdoors to wash away loose ticks; • do a daily “full body” check for ticks on yourself, children and pets. If you find a tick on your skin, removing it within 24-36 hours of the tick bite usually prevents infection. Initial symptoms differ from person to person,
which makes Lyme disease difficult to diagnose. Some people may have no symptoms at all. Others may experience mild symptoms like fever or a skin rash soon after being bitten, while others may suffer severe symptoms, but not for weeks after the bite. Symptoms of Lyme disease can include one or a combination of the following with varying degrees of severity: fatigue, fever or chills, headache, spasms or weakness, numbness or tingling, swollen lymph nodes, and skin rash. Additional symptoms
can include brain fog or dizziness, nervous system disorders, muscle and joint pain and abnormal heartbeat. Untreated, symptoms can last months to years. They can include recurring arthritis, neurological problems, numbness and paralysis. Although not common, fatalities from Lyme disease have been reported. If you develop symptoms of Lyme disease, contact your health care provider right away, as the earlier you receive a diagnosis, the greater the chance of a successful treatment. If
you saved the tick that bit you, bring it to your medical appointment, as it may help the doctor assess your illness. The Public Health Agency of Canada has developed an action plan to increase Lyme disease awareness among Canadians, is collaborating with family practitioners to enhance their knowledge and capacity for prompt diagnosis and treatment, and is enhancing surveillance to improve the current data of where the disease is emerging and where populations are at risk.
Public urged to help protect piping plovers The piping plover, named for its plaintive bell-like whistles, is a relatively small bird both is size and numbers. The species is designated as endangered under the federal Species at Risk Act, as there are only 6,000 to 6,400 individuals in the world. The Nature Conservancy of Canada is working with many partners to conserve this sensitive species’ habitat and help increase its population. Piping plovers can be identified by their sandy-gray colour. Their distinctive song consists of a series of whistled peeps ending with a ringing peep-lo. They feed on insects and small aquatic animals, and nest in shallow scrapes on the beach that are sometimes lined with bits of shell and small stones. In the fall, these diminutive birds undertake an incredible journey, migrating all the way from their northern nesting grounds to the coast of Mexico, the south-eastern U.S. and the Caribbean Islands. One of the main threats to piping plovers is distur-
bance on their beach nesting areas and predation, as well as storms, which wash out their nests. This is why the Nature Conservancy of Canada has secured many properties throughout the Atlantic provinces and les îles-dela-Madeleine (Magdalene Islands), which act as essential buffer zones. NCC’s conservation activities aim to protect key nesting sites from human disturbance and development. Here are some of the ways the public can help protect piping plovers habitat: • stay clear of signs marking sensitive nesting areas; • walk on the wet sand rather than on the dry sand where they nest; • keep pets leashed so they don’t chase the adults and chicks; • take food and trash off the beach which might attract predators; • do not drive off-road vehicles on beaches and dunes.

urban/rural digital divide since day one â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not anymore,â&#x20AC;? said Schick. For rural businesses, these internet speeds also mean that rural entrepreneurs will be able to do business with the world on a world-class network. Schick said for real estate agents in rural areas, for instance, five or six could be on the internet at the same time. LTE is a much faster technology than any other technology in use today. Activities that require large amounts of data, such as streaming movies, work very well on a LTE network. It is ideal for those who plan to perform a lot of data-hungry activities or simply want top performance when surfing the internet. This technology provides the fastest data network available and the speed difference can be quite noticeable especially if more than one device in the home is accessing the internet at the same time.

Early childhood educators focus on mental health At a professional education day recently, early childhood educators and full day Kindergarten teachers from across Renfrew County received specialized information on the importance of mental health for young children. The focus of the third annual Early Childhood Educatiors Day in Pembroke, hosted by the County’s child care services division, was mental health. The day was filled with speakers, networking and plenty of quality
learning, as leading experts shared ideas and insight with the 200-plus attendees. During his opening address, Warden Peter Emon stressed the importance of infant mental health knowledge amongst the early childhood educator sector and praised the attendees for their dedication to the field. “Raising children is a complex and rewarding relationship and the child care providers are considered substitute caregivers from infant hood to school age and in

some cases beyond the entry into school,” he said. “Our community has excellent child care workers anxious to ensure every child has the best possible opportunity early in their life. The training provided ensures they deliver that to our future community leaders and contributors.” “To be in a room with 200 men and women who are obviously passionate and dedicated to their work was inspiring,” said county social services committee
chair Debbie Robinson. “The County of Renfrew child care services division should be congratulated for its effort to ensure these men and women receive the training and ongoing support they need to care for our children.” Keynote speaker, Dr Kulkarni, the director of Infant Mental Health Promotion at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, spoke of the importance of mental health for infants and children especially in their first three years of life.
The afternoon sessions allowed participants to attend sessions related to child development, curriculum development and learning through play. Event organizer, the county’s child care services manager Judy Mulvihill, acknowledged the commitment that the early childhood educators exhibit every day in their profession. “For your work is not hard work, it is heart work.” The afternoon sessions saw the participants break

out into seven different groups. The topics were delivered by key professionals, and covered communication with children, relationship building, the importance of literacy, the power of play, team building, mental health and developing appropriate curriculum. In conjunction, the cooks of licensed child care centres gathered at an offsite location to share nutritional menus and ways to be creative with meal planning while keeping food costs within budget.

However, Rouleau’s status and the important work he does are being complemented at Cuso by that of entrepreneurs and others at the twilight of their careers. People who want to give back, learn from another culture, and enjoy the adventure offered in a foreign land are those Cuso is seeking. “I went with my wife and family, but (Cuso is) getting away from families,” Rouleau said. “They are more and more interested in retirees who want to travel and contribute. It’s an excellent option for many people in Arnprior.” He explained that Cuso is not an humanitarian aid organization. It pays participants enough to get by with extra spending money for projects that could take a year or more to complete. The federal government contributes $10 for every $1 raised by the participant upon their successful completion. Those interested can submit a proposal on any number of issues. Some have helped natives with traditional medicines access Canadian markets. Others have shared policing techniques with inner city forces in mega cities. All professionals have a skill to share, Rouleau said. Cuso is relying more and more on corporate sponsorship, so its focus is gradually shifting from human rights activism to areas such as fair trade, whereby the worker is paid a fair

NeighbourLink show its appreciation for volunteers Scott Campbell
scottcampbell@metroland.com
Arnprior and District NeighbourLink Fountain held an appreciation tea for its volunteers on May 27. Organizer Bonnie Sperry noted about 42 of them came out for the get-together. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really about appreciating the value of the volunteers,â&#x20AC;? said chairman of the board, Robert Jones, who is also a volunteer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do a thing without them. Nothing would happen. The tea was about giving them a boost.â&#x20AC;? There were desserts, a slideshow of photos and a song about serving God through others â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and obviously, tea. Arnprior Mayor David Reid also made an appearance and even took the time to take a tour of the location. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He had an appreciation of what we do here,â&#x20AC;? said Jones. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a person he is a really nice fellow.â&#x20AC;? NeighbourLink Fountain is a place where people go in for a friendly chat or advice on how to deal with a variety of issues from finances to loss of a home. Co-ordinator Anne Montgomery was quite pleased with the tea and by the mayor taking the place in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was wonderful,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having the mayor here was a sign of the good that the volunteers are doing.â&#x20AC;? For the month of June, the Fountain plans to have slightly shorter days as it will run 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. NeighbourLink officials are also preparing for their big indoor and outdoor sale, which has been scheduled for June 20.

the shoulder of approved roads and may only use the traveled portion of the road if the shoulder is not there or obstructed; • an off-road vehicle licence plate must be displayed and not obstructed on the rear of the ATV; • a driver’s minimum G2 or M2 drivers licence is required to operate on an approved roadway; • there are many more rules that ATVs must obey on roadways and they can be found on the internet under www.e-laws.gov.on.ca. Look under the Highway Traffic Act, Ontario Regulation 316/03 and the Off Road Vehicles Act for full details. OFF-ROAD VEHICLE SAFETY
Off-road vehicles (ORV) include ATVs, dirt bikes, Argos, Rhinos, Gators, Mules, and all similar vehicles. Police have the following advice on driving ORVs. Always wear an approved helmet and make sure it is securely fastened. Never operate an ORV while intoxicated by alcohol or drugs. Read the instruction manual and follow manufacturer’s recommendations, i.e. obey warning labels and stickers on the ATV One-person ORVs are not designed for passengers and it is dangerous to operate a one person ORV with a passenger. ORV head lights are generally not as bright as car lights and operators should not over drive their head lights at night. Speed should be adjusted to varying terrain conditions Check with the local municipal office or police to ensure what roads are approved. Generally off-road vehicles are prohibited on maintained roads unless the province or municipality has passed a by-law approving the use of ATVs on specific roads. It is the responsibility of the operators to find out which roads are approved. Make sure your off road vehicle is registered, plated and insured.
Beware scammers, OPP urge Renfrew-Arnprior OPP continue to remind the public of scams that are being received in the mail, by telephone, in e-mails and webpages, and by scammers at the door. “The simple fact is you should be wary of anyone who is requesting your cash, credit card, banking information or social insurance numbers,” warn police. “They are trying to steal your money, or trick you into parting with it” If you have been scammed, police
urge victims to report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre. They keep statistics on the types and frequency of frauds, and can assist with prevention information, and will work with police if there are suspects. Ways to report fraud include: • online at https://www.antifraudcentre.ca; • toll-free at 1-888-495-8501; • toll-free fax at 1-888-654-9426; • email at info@antifraudcentre. ca.
Seeing seatbelt-related deaths on OPP-patrolled roads shrink from 120 10 years ago (2005) to 50 last year (2014) has the police optimistic about the growing importance road users are placing on using proper restraints when driving. “We are proud to see Ontarians come such a long way with seat belt safety over the past 10 years,” said OPP chief superintendent Chuck Cox. “In spite of the steady progress, we need all road users to start recognizing the significant role a seat belt plays in increasing one’s chances of surviving a road crash and reducing
the severity of injuries.” Over the Easter long weekend, the OPP conducted province-wide, education and targeted enforcement of seat belt laws to address those few road users who need to be nudged to buckle up. The OPP would prefer to see drivers do this through their own initiative rather than police enforcement. Over the past 10 years, 856 people have died in road crashes in which not wearing a seat belt was a causal factor in their deaths. More than two-thirds (646) of the dead were males and 210 were
females. The majority of those who died (611) were drivers and 245 were passengers. The OPP is issuing an important reminder to passengers, in particular those who sit in the back seat. When a collision occurs with unbuckled passengers in the back seat, this can set a deadly stage for person-to-person impact. People in the front seat are often struck by unbelted backseat passengers who become high-speed projectiles inside the vehicle, sometimes contributing to the death of those who were wearing a seat belt and might have otherwise survived.
R0022724100.0611
The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), East Region continue to be concerned with the number injuries and deaths related to All-Terrain-Vehicle (ATV) usage and people failing to obey the laws concerning their use on Highways. So far this year, a 25-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy have been killed in off-road Vehicle collisions. And just over a week ago, a man died in the Pontiac in an ATVcrash. There have also been injury collisions involving drivers and passengers ranging from 10 to 22 years of age. OPP officers have stopped 15-yearolds operating ATVs on the highway, teen drivers not wearing helmets and three people riding on an ATV that included a 4-year old passenger wearing a bike helmet not approved for ATV use. “Please use approved helmets at all times while operating ATVs,” urge police. Recent crashes prove off-road vehicles can be extremely dangerous if not used in a safe and responsible manner. Some of the other rules that apply to ATVs operated on approved roads: • approved helmets must be worn and securely fastened; • the ATV is designed for the driver only and passengers are not allowed on roads; • if operating on an approved roadway: when the speed limit is 50 km/ hr or less, the speed limit for ATVs is 20 km/hr; when the roadway speed limit is over 50 km/hr, the speed limit for ATVs is 50 km/hr; • head lights and tail lights must be on at all times; • the operator must follow all the rules of the road, such as signaling all movements; • brake lights are required on all ATVs manufactured after 1998; • ATVs must have four wheels and steering handle bars; • ATVs can only be operated on

Ottawa Hall of Fame honours sports inductees for 2015 Scott Campbell
scottcampbell@metroland.com
The sold-out crowd came to see Charlie Henry, Kristina Kiss, Dave ‘The Voice’ Schreiber, Bryan Murray and the 1975 U Ottawa Gee-Gees football team, join the ranks of about 250 previous inductees during a June 5 ceremony at Lansdowne Park. They were entered into the 2015 class at the Ottawa Sport Hall of Fame. The stories, achievements and contributions, behind each of the inductees could easily fill numerous articles. “This is celebrating Ottawa’s sports heritage,” said sport commissioner Jody Mitic. People can find the Hall of Fame inside Ottawa’s city hall with exhibits, trophies, photographs and memorabilia which stretch back to 1966. The horticulture building at Lansdowne was filled with over 330 people for the ceremony. About 20 students of the sports business management program at Algonquin College had a hand in or-
ganizing the evening, noted Dave Best who is the chair for the hall of fame and also the professor and coordinator of the program. “Anyone can [make a nomination,]” said Best of the process. “There’s an eight member nomination committee chaired by one board member and co-chaired by one nomination committee member. They receive all nominations by a set date each year and collate the new ones with ones previously. They rank and vote and present a recommended top choice list. The board, also of eight this year, then usually accepts the nomination or close to it.” Charlie Henry was a major contributor to the development of minor hockey in the Ottawa and Gatineau area and spent as a coach, manager, executive and owner. He also did 26 years with the Hull/ Gatineau Olympiques as the team made the playoffs every year and won the Memorial Cup in 1997 and seven Quebec Junior League President’s Cups along the way. “His keen eye for talent has
sent many players and coaches to the ranks of the National Hockey League,” said master of ceremonies and sports broadcaster Dean Brown during the introduction. With FIFA’s Women’s World Cup starting, it seemed appropriate that soccer athlete Kristina Kiss was entered into the hall of fame. Her accomplishments began with serving as team captain in the 2003 Pan Am Games and even played on the 2008 Olympic team. In her brief acceptance speech, Kiss highlighted her family, “To mom and dad, who sacrificed so much to allow me to be where I am.” When it was Dave Schreiber’s turn to take the stage, Dean Brown – a sports announcer himself – said, “Dave is one of the very best hockey announcers you will ever hear in Ottawa.” While there was no video montage to show for Schreiber, ADjust had the audience simply to listen to highlights of the PROOF ‘The Voice.’ Schreiber’s FORM media career has spanned over 40 years.

The 2015 class of the Ottawa Sport Hall of Fame include, from left, former Canadian Soccer team member Kristina Kiss, the 1975 undefeated Ottawa Gee Gees Football teamrepresented by head coach Don Gilbert, Dave “The Voice” Schreiber, Senators general manager Bryan Murray and long-time hockey man Charlie Henry. He began broadcasting the Ottawa 67’s on September 27, 1974. This was also the very first game which Brian Kilrea was behind the bench as coach. He was part of the original broadcast crew for the Ottawa Senators in 1992 and even did play-by-play for the Ottawa Renegades and Rough Riders. Schreiber also worked at the Rideau Carleton Raceway and gave a shout-out to a previous Hall inductee Dr. Roland ‘Roly’ Armitage - who was the general manager for a stint at the raceway. Ottawa Senators GM and Shawville native Bryan Murray has had a career that spanned over 35 years. He also accumulated a coaching record which puts him in the top 10 list of wins for NHL coaches of all-time. “Someone said Shawville is empty tonight…almost,” he joked. “If you wanted to get into a Murray house, you can
do so tonight.” All of Murray’s four brothers and five sisters were able to take in the ceremony. A fact he appreciated. “It’s great to be recognized in your home area.” Murray thanked the Senators staff and his family, especially his wife Geri and daughters Brittany and Heide for their support as he put them through a lot of moves over the years. He reminisced about growing up in Shawville and playing senior ‘A’ hockey. He capped his speech with continuing to spread the message of getting a colonoscopy. Murray also gave a nod to the final induction of the night – the 1975 U Ottawa GeeGees football team. Murray was coaching the Rockland Nationals for the 75-76 hockey season and Rockland eventually won the championship. “The Gee-Gees had set the tone,” he said. It’s been 40 years since the
Gee-Gees became the first undefeated University of Ottawa football team. They went 11-0 and won national championship, the Vanier Cup. Head coach Don Gilbert and plenty of the players were present for the evening. Twenty-one of the 46 players on the roster were eventually drafted by CFL teams, a Canadian university record. “[It was] a dedicated coaching staff, quality education and a quality football program,” said Gilbert. “The crowd was bigger,” said Best. “Last couple of years we were at city hall where there is less space and not really suitable for a sitdown dinner. This year we wanted to show the hall is growing and by a very nice coincidence, we realized these inductees would draw a bigger crowd.” Best expects the next few ceremonies will remain at Lansdowne.

The Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL) held its 2015 Midget draft at the end of April with some local players chosen. There were 11 rounds and 134 selections. Jack Rouleau of Arnprior, a former Packers player, was drafted by the Carleton Place Canadians at 124th overall. The Pembroke Lumberkings picked head coach Dale McTavish’s son, Darian, for their ninth-round selection. McTavish, of Carp, last played as a goaltender for the West Carleton
Minor Midget B team. The Kings also drafted Luka Marinic and Spencer Hill. The two both last played for the Renfrew Timberwolves. Pembroke also picked Renfrew native Evan Gillan in the sixth round. Cameron Job, also from Renfrew, was selected by the Kanata Lasers with their eighthround pick. Job had been playing for the Upper Ottawa Valley Aces Minor Midget AA in the position of goaltender. Zach Elliott, whose hometown is Shawville, had been drafted by the Lumberkings at 38th overall.

Local Motocross racer to compete on ‘home’ track A McNab-Braeside couple are hosting a Motocross racing event on Sunday, June 21 on their property in the Mt. St. Patrick area. Chris and Sheri Kopetoske have a 17-year-old son who has been racing Motorcross for several years. Collin Kopetoske, an Arnprior District High School student, is a member of the Yamaha Canada MX101 Talent Factory Amateur Race Team. He rides the MX1 and the MX3 450cc classes. The family normally has to travel to the Sand Del Lee in Richmond (Ottawa) and even further afield to see him race. However, they own a property on Kennelly Mountain in which they have created a
Motocross track. Sheri Kopetoske reports the family has worked with the Township of Greater Madawaska over the past year to secure event permits for a race on the track. In preparation for the June 21 event, noise testing was also conducted by Greater Madawaska officials, in which resulted in no adverse effects were identified, she says. The race is sanctioned by MX101 and is the sixth in the MX101 IronMan Series. It is being sponsored in part by Urban Sport of Arnprior and Yamaha. The Kopetoskes stress the track is not a permanent facility. The family plans to host only one or two race event
weekends per year. “Our goal is to provide a safe riding experience to riders of all ages and abilities, in a fun, family atmosphere,” said Sheri Kopetoske. “Hosting a race in this area will give kids from eastern Ontario and western Quebec an opportunity to ride or race a different track.” The Kopetoskes note that Motocross tracks are dirt tracks usually made up of jumps and technical corners. Their track is unique as it provides several natural elevations on the mountain top, instead of the standard dirt track built in an open field, they explain. Given this is a new track that riders have not experi-
enced, there will be a practice day for the riders on Saturday and then the races will take place on the Sunday. There will be racers attending from the MX101 IronMan Series and from the Maquire’s Motocross Racing Series.

ADHS soccer boys win silver medal at EOSSAA scottcampbell@metroland.com
The Arnprior and District High School senior boys and girls acquitted themselves well in the Eastern Ontario Secondary School Athletic Association championships in Kingston on May 26. “The boys played against St. Mikes from Kemptville and we got down two goals with 10 minutes left in the second half. Liam Mayhew scored two (goals) within 30 seconds to tie,” reported ADHS staff advisor Phil Moore. ADHS scored again with three minutes left in the game to win 3-2. Next up, said Moore was St. Joe’s in Cornwall. ADHS won
another one-goal game, this time 2-1. The toughest match was the championship showdown against Kingston on their home field. ADHS was behind within the first two minutes, but Ryan Massoud managed to strike for to pull Arnprior into a tie. “Kingston got defensive and clogged our chances and we lost 3-1 to become silver medalists,” said Moore. The senior girls started by playing the top seed, which was also Kingston. “They were a very strong team and we lost 3-0,” said Moore, as the team wrapped up their season. “The girls did very well for a young team. There are 16 out of 17 kids who will be returning for next year.
Coach Nathan Woods noted the boys were able to extend their season with a qualification at the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Association championships in North Bay June 4-6. “It is great news, as we lost a hard match to KCVI (Kingston Collegiate & Vocational Institute) in the EOSSA final,” said Woods. “I feel we were the better side and on a larger field their tactics of 10 men behind the ball would not have worked.” Woods noted he felt the team played with excellent technique and flair at EOSSA. “This is a great opportunity for our team, as 10 of the 18 players on the roster are Grade 10s with one of them Grade 9 as well,” said Moore.

AMBU soccer club fairs well at Renfrew Festival Vinnie Jones
The Under 10 girls and boys of the Arnprior McNab Braeside United Soccer Club travelled to Renfrew on Saturday, May 30 and a fun time was had by all. At this age, the Ontario Soccer Association has declared that no official score will be kept, however the players, even under the age of 10 all know what the score is when the final whistle blows. The girls teams representing the Arnprior club outscored the opposition in 3 of their games. Sydney Laprade stood out as goal keeper making numerous saves throughout the day on shots that the opposition thought were sure goals. Scorers for the girls were: Taryn McGregor, Jordan Tate, Jade White and Claire Simpson. Simpson and her sister Lucy Simpson along with Kyleigh McManus play in the under 8 division for AMBUSC and played up with the U10’s for this Festival. Coaches Les Laprade, Bill Currie and Zak Butterly all said the U8 girls could really hold
their own with the older girls and it was a great opportunity for them to gain experience preparing the girls for when they officially get to that age group. Boys results
The boys really held their own and controlled the majority of play in most games – even playing with a player short in some matches. Some of the boys really got their fill playing in 5 games for coaches Todd Simpson and Mark Teskey. They were up against tough competition as the other teams have been playing for with 2 teams the last 4 weeks as the AMBUSC teams were coming into the festival after only one night of training. In the end the boys did earn a draw in one of their games. Goal Scorers for the boys included: Aaron Voldock and Bryson Leckie. Everyone had a blast at the Renfrew Festival and there were smiles all around. A great day of soccer was had by all.

Another reason why Para Transit transportation is a vital service Liz Wall
Seniors at Home
A proud man who proudly donned the uniform. Joe Descent of Arnprior, a veteran of the Second World War, will always be remembered as the veteran who still fitted in the very uniform he wore as a member of the Royal Canadian Air Force during WWII and who, for 40 plus years, proudly wore it every Nov. 11 Remembrance Day Service in Arnprior.. On Friday, June 5, Colin Borshevsky, driver of the ArnpriorBraeside-McNab Seniors At Home (ABMSH) Care Coach, was joined by Joe Descent’s son David as he drove the veteran to a nursing home in Belleville. Now that he’s 94, Joe’s health has at a state that his partner, of 18 years, Viviane Kinderman, is unable to give him the medical care required. The decision to move to Belleville was so Joe would be closer to son David living in Kingston and son Michael living in the Trenton area. There could be no stronger example of why the Para Transit Care Coach is a vital service to the community as supplied by ArnpriorBraeside-McNab Seniors at Home. “We have always said members of
the community may not know all we do here until they need to use our service,” said ABMSH executive director Dennis Harrington. “We have been there for both Joe and Viviane in the past and now we are proud to have been there for them at a time when life has forced them to make such a major change in their lives.” Each year at this time ABMSH launches its ‘Yellow Envelope MailOut Keep the Wheels Turning Para Transit Care Coach’ campaign. The reason for the campaign? So it can continue to offer the vital service of the Care Coach Para Transit vehicle when a member of the community is in need. We have so much to be thankful for and we owe it all to the caring and generous residents of the communities we call home. Officially only three weeks into the annual campaign, ABMSH has received $12,378 in donations. “We are over whelmed with this early response,” said Harrington. “A great start towards reaching our goal for this year.” “Like so many others, I too enjoy the freedom of the transportation service at Seniors at Home. The drivers treat us just like their family,” wrote Noweta Schultz. “Happy anniversary
and I hope this area will support your efforts for many more years.” Schultz’s independence, like so many others, depends on the services provided by ABMSH. Our mission – to administrate and the delivery of client centered home support services to encourage independent living and enhance the quality of life of seniors and individuals with special needs – is why we have our annual fundraising campaign requesting the public’s financial support. On May 19, every household within Arnprior, McNab-Braeside, Fitzroy Harbour, Woodlawn, Constance Bay and Kinburn received a campaign letter in a bright yellow envelope requesting donations. Please return you donation in the supplied return-envelope either by mail or drop off at our office 106 McGonigal St. West, Arnprior, Ont. K7S 1M4. We are now offering the convenience of Interact, Visa and Master Card. Donations can be made, at our office between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday. If you did not receive the yellow envelope and would like to make a donation, please feel free to call or drop by. We would love to see you. Thank you to everyone who has made a donation to date.

Seniors at Home said good bye to a Second World War II veteran and former town treasurer, Joe Descent. Seniors at Home driver Colin Borshevsky brings him on board the Care Coach for the trip to Belleville, the closest location of a nursing home to both of his sons. His health forced him to leave his partner of 18 years, Vivienne Kinderman.

Mother, who favoured the young cousin, gently asked him to fetch his book. He never moved a muscle, just looking like a little angel, the expression on his face left no doubt that he had no intention of handing over the borrowed book. Well, the hunt was on. Terry never moved from the chair he was sitting on in the kitchen. We looked under mattresses, in the wood box and even in the back-to-wall cupboard. Motherʼs patience was wearing thin, but it was my older and very wise sister Audrey who finally figured out how to get Terry to turn over the library book. She told him she wouldnʼt take out a book that week, and he could have two. All he had to do was hand over the one due back in Renfrew. Well, he flew off the chair like a bolt of lightning, headed upstairs, and pulled his little leather suitcase out from under his bed, opened it up, and tucked under his clothes was the lost library book. I asked Audrey what we would have done if we hadnʼt

Well, the weekend rolled around and it was time to get the books back to Renfrew. They were to be put inside a clean flour bag pillowslip for the trip. We were well warned by Miss wire-rimmed glasses, that if any book had as much as a smidgen of a mark on it, Mother would have to buy it. Well! That was like saying we had to buy a new car! And so, we kept the books spotlessly clean, making sure we had washed our hands before opening them, and when it wasnʼt locked up for the winter, sitting on the horsehair settee in the parlour to read. Mother, as she did every time we were to return the books, was standing at the kitchen table, examining each book, and then gently placing it in the pillow slip, as she counted to make sure she had seven spotlessly clean books to take into Renfrew. Well, one was missing! Out they came from the pillowslip and it didnʼt take long to figure out that everyone but young Terry had brought their book to the kitchen table.

found the book. “We would have had to pay for it.” I also asked Audrey if Terry hadnʼt turned the book over, if that would be like stealing, which in our house was punishable by death. She then assured me we would have eventually found the book when we were packing up the cousins to send them back to Montreal at the end of the summer. But the book was found, and that was all that mattered. As for Terry, he kept bringing home books because he liked the covers. The brighter the better. Books with fire-red steam engines, trains, animals, and covers with pictures of raging water were his favourites. He never opened the books from one week to the next, which to me was mighty strange. The Renfrew Library opened up a whole new world for us. Even with only one book a week, we could travel in our mindʼs eye to far away countries, meet people who were famous, and escape into a make believe land, and for a time remove ourselves from the poverty of the Depression years that held so many of us captive.

Every time we went into the Renfrew Library, I was reminded of the day Mother fought for us to have library cards, and take books back out to the farm in Northcote. I was sure she and the librarian were going to come to blows. “We donʼt give cards to children from the country,” she said. After high raised voices, and assuring the lady behind the desk with the tiny glasses sitting on the end of her nose, that like everyone else in Renfrew County, we paid taxes, we five children were finally allowed to join the Renfrew Public Library. And when summer rolled around, and the Montreal cousins came for their usual twomonth visit, they too, were allowed to take one book each back to Northcote. Of course, Terry, the younger of the two, who could neither print nor read, always picked a book more suitable for my oldest brother Everett. He liked the covers of the books, and cared little for what was inside. And so, every Saturday, young Terry would take out a book just because it had a colourful picture on the outside. We were only allowed to keep the books out for a week, not like the town kids who got to keep theirs out for two weeks. We werenʼt about to argue, though ... just having a book of our choosing was enough for us.

COUNTY OF RENFREW/SUBMITTED
Former Lanark County Warden Bill Dobson presents Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon with a plate to commemorate Renfrew County winning the last Silver Chain Challenge. from Ottawa. “Changing the conversation is the priority that really drives everything we do,” she said. She said 600,000 daily cyclists on the road in Ontario, and 3.8 million people ride at least monthly in the province. “Fifty four per cent of
Ontarians want to cycle more. We need to build spaces and do public education to allow them to make that choice.” The summit included a session in which planning staff from several counties and municipalities com-
pared notes and shared their daily work experiences with the audience. Phil Mosher of North Grenville said the process of shifting focus from cars is “very incremental,” but, “there are many economic spin-offs of people being more active.”

at Council, but it was well supported,” he said. In 2014, the County spent $328,000 on shoulder hardening. “We have to move in increments,” he said. “We are making progress.” Event organizer Damien McCarthy, co-owner of the outdoor equipment store GearHeads, in Petawawa, gave a lot of credit to County staff. “Without the partnership of the County of Renfrew, we couldn’t have got where we are today. County came to the table and things really started changing quickly.” Dr. Maureen Carew, Renfrew County’s Medical Officer, said that surveys show safety concerns are keeping one in five Canadians from taking part in walking and cycling. “Low physical activity rates cost Canada $5.3 billion a year,” she said. Jeff Jackson, co-ordinator or Algonquin College’s Outdoor Adventure Program and risk management consultant, talked at length about municipal liability, which is often cited by AT skeptics as a reason for inaction. “Liability is a stopping point,” he said. “It’s full of misperceptions and fear. It drives me up the wall we have decision-makers worried about protecting themselves when we should be protecting the people who are actually doing this.” He said anyone in a management role has a “duty of care,” which cannot be avoided, regardless of actions taken or not. “By encouraging AT, do I increase my duty of care? No. You had it already. It can’t be elevated or lowered.” The statuatory standard, he said, is the Municipal Act, which dictates that any road: “Shall keep it in a state of repair that is reasonable in the circumstances. The bottom line is that if a municipality puts in place a system, that’s the standard of measurement.” Ottawa Valley Travel Association president and owner of Bonnechere Caves, Chris Hinsperger, talked about how local businesses need to understand the economic benefits of encouraging AT. “You can have the best roads, but it won’t do much good if my business colleagues aren’t on board,” he said. “You need to be continuously thinking about what user wants. It represents a big mind change, but the benefits will far outweigh the costs.” Like other speakers throughout the day, he said AT tourists tend to be well educated and have higher incomes. “Take time to invest in your customer,” he said. “The customer will come back down the road after you’ve invested in your customer.” Jamie Stuckless of the Share the Road Cycling Coalition attended

Active transportation - cycling, walking hiking, paddling and other forms of non-motorized transport - is growing exponentially, and communities, local governments and businesses are working together to keep up with demand and take advantage of opportunities. That was the message from more than 60 municipal leaders and staff, business owners and advocates from across eastern Ontario at the Active Transportation (AT) Summit in Pembroke on May 29. It was billed as a second annual event, following up on a successful conference in Mississippi Mills last year. Another is planned for Kemptville next year. “It’s all about cultural change and redefining what’s normal,” Algonquin College professor Jeff Jackson said in introductory remarks. “One of our goals today was to reach across eastern Ontario,” event organizer Shawna Babcock told the gathering. “We have achieved that and it’s very exciting to see the number of elected representatives and committed community members from so many sectors here today.” Madawaska Valley Township Coun. Carl Bromwich said: “We have a jewel of an area for people to walk and cycle. If you don’t use it, you lose it.” Carleton Place Deputy Mayor Jerry Flynn agreed. “We like the money that people bring on their bikes,” he told the assembly. The summit opened with a welcome from Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon, who spoke enthusiastically about the economic and health benefits of active transportation (AT). “It’s the perfect package, so it’s time for the rest of us buy in to what you’ve been saying for years,” he said. He posed with former Lanark County Warden Bill Dobson to promote the Silver Chain Challenge, a friendly annual competition between the two counties that happens every year in June to encourage cycling, walking and running. For information about participating, go to www.silverchainchallenge.ca. Counties across the region have worked hard in recent years to address the gaps in active transportation infrastructure, education and support. Renfrew County’s CAO Jim Hutton, for instance, spoke about how county staff have worked with AT working group under the Physical Activity Network of Renfrew County (PAN-RC) to develop an AT policy and strategies that identify priority roads and routes for hardened shoulders. The AT policy adopted last year “wasn’t without some controversy

‘Emergency scam’ robs Canadians of $2.4 million Be wary of, ‘Grandma, it’s me … I need help … please don’t tell anyone’ As the victim count continues to rise, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has issued another release urging citizens to not be sucked in by emergency scams. The scammers have continued to target vulnerable persons and seniors by playing upon their emotions to rob them of their money, notes the OPP. Each year, emergency scam artists contact thousands of citizens and many people get scammed in their rush to help. Many victims are hesitant to say ‘no’ or to hang up on someone on the phone, which makes them easy targets for criminals to access substantial sums of money. In 2014, five per cent of all complaints received by the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre were victims of the ‘Emergency Scam’ - sometimes referred
to as the ‘Grandparent Scam’. Of those 1,977 complaints, 737 people were identified as victims who reported a total loss of more than $2.4 million. In the typical emergency scam, the victim will receive a frantic phone call from someone claiming to be a grandchild or loved one. The caller will explain that they are involved in some sort of mishap or are having trouble returning from a foreign country and need money right away. Scammers know how to gather personal information for criminal means. They use phony social media accounts to find real names, real interests, real phone numbers and when you are going to be home or away. They’ll even call in the middle of the night to take advantage of the confusion caused by awaking suddenly with the expectation its bad news at
that hour. Most of all, they rely upon the victim’s desire to help their loved ones, whatever the cost. Be aware of some warning signs urges the OPP: • Urgency - The scammer always makes the request sound very urgent, which may cause the victim to not verify the story. • Fear - The scammer plays on the victim’s emotions by generating a sense of fear. For instance they may say, “I am scared and I need help from you.” • Secrecy - The scammer pleads with the victim not to tell anyone about the situation, such as, “Please don’t tell Dad, he would be so mad.” • Request for Money Transfer - Money is usually requested to be sent by a money transfer company such as Money Gram, Western Union or even through your own bank institution.

To avoid becoming a victim, police advise you to first check with another family member or trusted friend to verify the information before sending money or providing credit card information by phone or e-mail. It is vitally important that the incident be reported every time it occurs, to allow police to investigate and prevent others from becoming victims. “All consumers, regardless of age and gender, can take basic steps to protect themselves from becoming victims of fraud, such as never giving out personal information over the phone, the internet or social media,” said OPP deputy commissioner Scott Tod. “Remember, if it is too good to be true ... it probably is.” If you or someone you know may have been the victim of an ‘emergency’ scam, contact your local police service or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477 (TIPS).
The saws of Gardiner Tree Ltd. could be heard in downtown Arnprior June 4. The company was taking down a tree just outside a home on McGonigal Street West, which is only a few doors down from the Arnprior ChronicleGuide office. The company has been kept busy in town as they also took away a massive white oak from the Dodds property around the corner a few weeks ago – that tree was estimated to be 200 to 400 years old. Gardiner also removed other trees on McGonigal last week. McGonigal Street is in for a major facelift starting next month. SCOTT CAMPBELL/ METROLAND

ADHS apartment a unique transitional tool for special education students Independent living is the goal of almost everybody and the pinnacle of what is considered personal freedom. But for some, achieving that goal can be a very difficult task. Under the leadership of Renfrew County public school board Transitions Program teacher Sarah Spratt and life skills teachers Jessica HawleysMalina and Donalda Stevens, Arnprior District High School has created an innovative idea to help support its special education students in achieving that goal. On June 2, ADHS’ special education department unveiled its in-school apartment to the Arnprior community. “The apartment was designed to create a space for students that will allow us to teach practical skills for independence,” explained Spratt. “This could be life skills like household safety, cooking, maintenance, etc; numeracy skills like creating budgets and purchasing; and real-world literacy such as recipes, labels, work instructions, lease agree-
ments etc. The opportunities are endless.” “The ADHS apartment program was created in hopes of providing authentic, genuine learning opportunities for students to develop, practice and master independence and life skills in an environment that simulates the real world,” she added. The apartment, built in a repurposed class room beside the library, is fully-functioning. The open-concept space includes a kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom and den. Special education students also had a big hand in creating the space. “I focus the majority of my program around the world of work and have hired my students to complete some of the renovation jobs in the space,” Spratt said. “Students will rent the space and use their weekly earning to begin to budget monthly for the trials of life’s demands of meeting deadlines and household chores, all while using the apartment. Now that we have the space, we will be able to
tailor programming with the purpose in a space that already feels like a home.” Special education in Ontario has no real curriculum to follow, leaving it up to the teachers to plan programming. “I focus on life skills,” Spratt said. “We use a practical, hands-on approach and I think we’ll be able to reach more people. I try to balance education with functionality and hope to foster greater independence.” Special education students in high school can start at age 14 and attend the program until they are 21. After that, many JAKE DAVIES/SUBMITTED former students with devel- Arnprior District High School students Steven Matinlassi and Keely Deriger sit with Renopmental disabilities expe- frew County District School Board transitions teacher Sarah Spratt in the living room of rience difficulty accessing the brand new ADHS apartment. support programs due to wait School board director of thenticity of the apartment lists in Renfrew County that hunters, then students could potentially be using funding, education Roger Clarke was and was overwhelmed by how can be several years long. “If we can support commu- respite and other financial on hand at the apartment open beneficial this learning oppornity and regional values by supports in different ways. house and was very impressed tunity will be for our students in the life skills and Transiimplementing genuine goals With a supportive principal with what he saw. “The ADHS apartment pro- tions Pathway program.” that assist in individual transi- (ADHS’ Neil Farmer) handCommunity support of the tions after school, then we are ing over the reins, a little el- gram is a wonderful example bow grease, a lot of TLC and a of what can be accomplished project includes cash and inhalfway there,” Spratt said. “If we can create connec- speedy work order carried out with vision, determination kind donations from M.

Local author to launch book Saturday at Arnprior Library A McNab-Braeside author is launching his new book at the Arnprior Library this Saturday, June 13. Neil Hamilton, author of the new novel ‘Watershed’, is a retired physics professor who taught at Algonquin College in Ottawa. He will be selling and signing copies of his book at the Arnprior Public Library from 1-3 p.m. After reading Marq de Villiers’ book, ‘Water’, Hamilton decided to create a scenario about the dangerous possibilities of declining water resources in the American Southwest. From that beginning, the story evolved into a “sinister plot by a ruthless international mogul.” Born in Cornwall and now living in McNab-Braeside, Hamilton served in the RCAF in the early 1960s and remains an active private pilot. In the early 1990s, he collaborated with Virgil P. Moshansky (Commissary of Inquirer of the Dryden Air Ontario Aircraft Crash) to
institute a number of Aviation Human Factor courses for Canadian airline and military aircrews. ‘Watershed is a tale of intrigue, greed and revenge set against the looming water shortage. The story is international in scope, framed against events foreshadowing a potentially vast drought catastrophe. Watershed makes it clear how easily such a calamity could happen. The novel draws the reader into a furious, shadowy duel between a dedicated group of private citizens and a cunning, vengeful, international mogul. The story begins when a hydrology engineer is killed in an airplane crash. Officially an accident. Unofficially it’s murder. Matt MacLeod, a friend of the victim, is summoned to assist in a secret investigation of his murder. He uncovers a ruthless international industrialist to hold the continent’s water resources to ransom and trigger a perilous clash between
the U.S. and Canada. The author says that it took him five to six years to complete the novel, but he especially enjoyed the research involved. “A sequel is in the works. It starts where Watershed ended.” One of the book’s many settings is Canada’s capital, so local readers may find that intriguing as the author uses downtown Ottawa landmarks in his descriptions. Reviews for ‘Watershed’ have been overwhelmingly positive. Amazon reviewer Ted Smethurst writes that Watershed is “a real page turner, bursting with intrigue. I can’t wait to read Mr. Hamilton’s next novel. A master of suspense and intrigue.” “A real page turner: fastpaced and timely story,” says Norma Wheeler.

Leahy: The next generation is coming to Arnprior Sunday scottcampbell@metroland.com
The Leahy family have travelled the world and received international acclaim. They even performed as part of a tour with famous singer Shania Twain. Now a new generation of entertainers from the family are coming to Arnprior to perform. It all started with Frank and Julie, who raised 11 children in the Peterborough area and every one of them took up the musical talent of fiddling, step-dancing, singing and even the button accordion. Sadly, Frank passed away on May 28. “As my father always said, this is passing on the torch,” said Frank’s daughter, Siobheann Leahy Donohue of the Douglas area. During the conversation, she was taking part in a sound-check for a concert in London, Ontario on June 4. On this Sunday, June 14,
the third generation of the Leahy family will be coming to St. John Chrysostom parish hall in Arnprior for a 2 p.m. show. The concert is hosted by the Arnprior Knights of Columbus and the proceeds are expected to go towards several initiatives and charities supported by the Knights. “We’ve been good friends with Kevin Ready who is part of the Knights,” said Donohue. “He suggested the show and said we would get tremendous support from the area.” Four of Donohue’s children are part of the group to be playing the concert – Aidan, Mhari, Hannah and Kiearan. The Leahy connection continues with Anges Leahy Enright’s children of Jacqueline, Liam, Isaac, Aaron and Andrew taking part. Enright is the sister of Donohue. Her family also lives in the Douglas area. Donohue noted the age range of the performers are 5 to 16 years old. The play list
will see a focus on Celtic-base music. The two sisters have settled into the Ottawa Valley since getting married and now each of them calls this area home base. They fit well with the Valley’s Celtic music heritage. For curious fans out there, the second generation of Leahys haven’t retired. Donohue and Enright will be at the Arnprior concert to show support. There was a teaser alert that there is a possibility of one - or both - picking up an instrument for the event. Even a hint was offered a new CD could be in the works, something that has not happened for the Leahys since a 2006 release. Primarily though, the ten children will be the main performers at the concert. “They toured around the world with us since most of them were three years old. Now they are kind of doKEVIN READY/SUBMITTED ing their own thing,” said Aidan, Mhari, Hannah and Kiearan Leahy Donohue will join their cousins, the six Leahy Donohue.

Why celebrate our heritage and history? It’s easy to forget what’s important when life is overrun with daily stress and costs of living. It’s even easier when the world is changing so rapidly especially in the area of technology reforms. The question is how do we perform our daily tasks and celebrate special occasions too? No matter how hard pressed we are, it becomes crucial to take an honest look at who we are and to remember the past. How did our ancestors deal with life’s struggles, joys and costs? What was important to them? How did they handle setbacks like death or burning of their farms or the stresses of the Laird’s feudal system, in their lives. Your heritage is something that’s passed down to you, such as property or significant items and objects. However, often when people speak of heritage, they refer to more abstract things, like traditions, rituals, and even traits and beliefs. Every form of heritage has significance, and people who cherish their ancestors and history want to protect it and keep it alive in the present and for future generations In some ways, it is more difficult to retrace and relate to family heritage as the world has changed. Historically, people were closer to their relations because they were more reliant on the family unit for survival. At present, despite all the technological improvements, people tend to have less time to pay any attention to their family ancestory. While our emotional needs still benefit greatly from strong family relationships, both in good times and in bad, we often ignore our heritage and don’t tend to strengthen our family bonds. The McNab Days Scottish Festival is designed to help people address this problem and to celebrate our diverse heritage culture and community. This year it takes place on Sunday, June 21, from 10 a.m.
ROSE ANN MacLAREN/SUBMITTED
Celtic dancing is part of the Scottish Festival celebration, set for June 21 at the Waba Cottage Museum grounds in White Lake. to 5 p.m. at the beautiful setting of Waba Cottage Museum and Gardens in White Lake. It was once Chief McNab’s summer home. His destroyed cottage was rebuilt in 1967 as a McNab-Braeside Centennial project and showcases much of the township’s history and many artifacts. There are many clan (family) tents with people who are more than eager to help you find your heritage. Who knows, you may find a relation there that you didn’t know you had. It may even answer some questions about some traits that you have and didn’t know why.
You don’t have to have Scottish blood running through your veins to enjoy the event, just an appreciation for the township’s natural beauty and the communities that make up this unique piece of the world and a spark of curiosity about history. Come on out and help us celebrate on June 21. There are full day activities and mini-games for children and a wide variety of events and activities for everyone to enjoy with lots of vendors and clan tents. Pull up a lawn chair and listen to the pipe bands, enjoy the stage entertainment and our re-enactors.

Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 27 when the sixth annual Riverfest (formerly Riverdrive Festival) takes place at Red Pine Bay in Braeside. The festival kicks off with a group paddle from Sand Point across to Norway Bay, and then down through the islands, finishing back at Red Pine Bay. Paddlers can register in advance (recreation@mcnabbraeside) or on June 27 at Red Pine Bay from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m. A bus transfer to the Sand Point wharf departs Red Pine Bay at 9:30 a.m. promptly. A cost of $10/paddler applies for transportation and snacks. Back by popular demand is a Dog Agility/ Dock Diving competition presented by Todd and Mary Spurrell of Avalon Ranch (11 a.m), and River History boat tours (2-4 p.m.). Highlighting this year’s festival will be a display of beautiful wooden boats from the Manotick Antique and Classic Boat club. The boats (circa 1920s and 1930s) will be available for viewing from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and a boat parade around Red Pine Bay is planned for 1 p.m. In conjunction with the classic boat show, there will also be a classic car show. Members of local clubs and all car enthusiasts are invited to bring their special cars down to compete for prizes. For information, call John (613-623-6920) or Geoff (613-623-5657, ext. 226). A great music show by local band ‘Ders’ happens from 1 to 3 p.m. Children’s activities taking place throughout the day include bouncy castle, soccer and hockey skills, and various games. A light breakfast will be available on site from 8 to 10 a.m., while lunch options include

Arnprior Dragon Boat Festival
Are you ready? Only eight weeks left until the Community Challenge Dragon Boat Festival right here in Arnprior. It’s going to be an event you will not want to miss, as dragon boating is currently the fastest growing team sport in North America, second only to soccer. You want to know why, because dragon boating simply reflects the basic principles of sport, fellowship, team work, and health and fitness. It’s also intense, but because you’re working together as a team, it’s fun. And, whether you win or lose, you do it together. In fact, paddlers agree that dragon boating is the ultimate in team building for nearly all ages, skill levels and physiques requiring synchronicity and fitness more than power to win. Just think about it, 20 paddlers, a steersperson and a
drummer – all in one boat – 22 hearts beating together as one to find perfect synchronicity. You must experience the thrill of dragon boating. The Town of Arnprior are calling all “awesome” people to come out on Saturday, July 25 for Arnprior’s very first Community Challenge Dragon Boat Festival at Robert Simpson Park. And, because this is a community challenge showcase, we are inviting the community to make up and enter a mixed team of their own, whether you have dragon boated before or not. How about a fathers and daughters team, a high school teachers and students team, a local sports club entry, or a youth and cancer survivor team, or even a boat full of community business and political leaders. Or, simply sign-up as an individual and let us place you on a team. It’s that easy and the possibilities are endless. You may even want to volunteer and help us set up and
effectively deliver this incredible event. We guarantee you a very worthwhile and memorable experience. For those of you who will want additional information, we encourage you to Google the Town of Arnprior’s website and go to Community Challenge Dragon Boat Festival. Please note that the closing date for team registration is Friday, June 26, so please don’t miss out. In addition, and even more exciting is that each dragon boat team entering the festival will be guaranteed two free practices beforehand during the week of July 19 through to July 24, the night before the big event. Please contact Glenn Arthur at the Nick Smith Centre to schedule your dragon boat practice sessions. And, please don’t be concerned, we will provide each boat with a coach and steersperson. Are you up for the challenge?

God looked around his garden and found an empty place, He then looked down upon this Earth and saw your tired face. He put His arms around you, and lifted you to rest, God’s garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering; He knew you were in pain, He knew that you would never get well on Earth again. He saw the road was getting rough and the hill were heard to climb, So he closed your weary eyes and whispered “Peace by thine” It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

IN MEMORIAM
Sister Joan’s ministry of teaching at both the elementary and high school levels, took her to Ottawa (St. Joseph’s Intermediate, Pius X), Renfrew and Peterborough. Along with teaching she developed her love for music and continued to study piano, organ and the teaching of choral music, in which she excelled, particularly after she retired from teaching in her hometown of Renfrew. Here she had great success in preparing students for Conservatory exams and for participation in both the Pembroke and Renfrew music festivals! But her proudest achievement was the Renfrew Children/Youth Chorus. Young people from any school in town, could participate in this choir, making it truly ecumenical. For her contribution to the creation of unity through music she was awarded Citizen of the Year, and the Paul Harris Fellow award from the Rotary Club. Her students appreciated her and many stopped in at hospice to sing for her or to keep vigil, joining with the many devoted and generous friends who sat with her day and night as her illness took its toll! Visitation at the Goulet Funeral Home, 310 Argyle St S, Renfrew, Sunday, June 7th form 2 to 4, and 7 -9, prayer service at 3 p.m. Mass of Christian Burial, Monday, June 8th, at 11 a.m. to St. Francis Xavier Church. Burial will be in Montreal in the cemetery of the Sisters of Holy Cross, 900 Cotê Vertu, Montreal, following a prayer service at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday in St. Joseph’s Pavilion.
