COMMUNITY
News – Two separate requests to add more units to properties in Arnprior brought out dozens of concerned residents to a town council meeting Monday. Almost 30 residents crammed into the fire/police hall to discuss adding apartments to a Victoria Street building and converting proposed stand-alone houses into townhomes in Village Creek. In both situations, residents are worried about transient occupants, increased traffic and a drop to surrounding property values. On Victoria Street, developers Justin and Sam Ileka-Priouzeau of Ottawa want to add three more apartments to the existing three already approved at the former River of Life church. They applied to the Town of Arnprior for a zoning change that currently allows for three apartments plus a church (or daycare or similar) to a six apartment unit. Nearby neighbour Allison Griffith said there is little frontage and the driveway leading to the back parking lot is too narrow for what could amount to dozen or more vehicles. The parking lot itself is too small, in her estimation. She also worries about the additional noise and general crowding. “Three (apartments) might work. If 12 or more are living in that building there is going to be real problems,” Griffith said. “And our property values would suffer.” Bill Mulvihill, another neighbour, said the parking lot is “very dangerous.” See INTENSIFICATION, page 6

News – A McNab-Braeside man’s frustration with township council has escalated to the point he began a hunger strike Tuesday. Len Chapeski says he will continue the hunger strike until he and his wife have some resolution of
their issue with the township. Bonnie Chapeski, owner of Mr. Dirt Landscaping, and her husband have been trying since last fall to get a permit to build an accessory dwelling on the Russett Drive property on which the business is located. “It’s something he’s been thinking about doing for awhile,” Bonnie said Monday. Fifty-nine-year-old Len began the hunger strike at

8 a.m. Tuesday on the Mr. Dirt property. The couple wants to build a dwelling on the land so that they can be on-site 24/7 to handle inquiries and deliveries that fall outside the regular hours of business and ensure the security of the site. The move will help them grow the business, they say.

Dispute going to OMB Continued from front
Upon the original submission of the proposed site plan late last summer, the Chapeskis were told there was one issue outstanding, which was resolved. Then before a meeting to review that revision in late February, council passed an interim bylaw prohibiting residential uses in General Industrial (GM) and Light Industrial (LM) zones. “We’re frustrated with these delays,” said Bonnie. “Len decided to do this since the township doesn’t respond to anyone and seems to make decisions willy-nilly. His plan is not to eat until the issues are resolved, not just with us, but with others too.” Bonnie has owned Mr. Dirt for more than 10 years. “We’re losing business now because we can’t be here after hours,” said Bonnie. The Chapeskis have also started a petition that now includes about 200 signatures. The petition asks council to remove the interim bylaw and provide the couple with a building permit so they can move forward. OMB APPEAL

Len Chapeski stands in front of his large hunger strike sign at his Russett Drive property Tuesday morning one hour into his hunger strike. Chapeski, who is already not in the best of health as he has pancreatic problems, said he has resorted to a hunger strike because he and his wife, Bonnie, are “desperate” to get McNab-Braeside council to act so they can build a home on the property and move out of their trailer, seen at right.
McNab-Braeside Mayor Mary Campbell said the issue is a sensitive one and she would like to speak with the municipal lawyer and all of council before addressing the specific issue of the hunger strike. However, she noted that an Ontario Municipal Board appeal on the issue has been filed by the Chapeskis and a hearing date

News – The municipal water system will extend to the Arnprior Aerospace area as a further safeguard against known carcinogens in the soil. Boeing is the former property owner overseeing the clean-up and will pay for the $500,000 infrastructure expansion that will benefit two homes. The company, which sold to Arnprior Aerospace in 2005, held an open house at the Arnprior public library June 4 to explain the situation. Although the toxic plume amounts to just a few barrels of degreasing agents – used by aviation companies and, before that, the federal government during the Second World War – Boeing is being “pro-active when it comes to risk assessment,” said company spokeswoman Megan Hilfer. “The one part per billion in the soil is like one second in 32 years,” Hilfer said. The volatile organic compounds, primarily trichloroethylene,
has been set for Sept. 3. “He’s already got an avenue of regress in motion and doesn’t need to do the hunger strike,” said Campbell. The mayor provided some history on the general issue. “In the light industrial zoning, currently the official plan allows a residence as an accessory dwelling to the business,” said Campbell. “And the Chapeskis, in the past, have exercised that.” She said council put the hold on the matter at least partly because of the Braeside quarry situation. “Where a problem has arisen is through our better understanding of the issue. It’s become evident through the quarry issue that now the Ontario regulations cite the minimum distance from a Class 3 industry is 300 metres. In this next severance, they’re (Chapeskis) within 300 metres of a concrete plant, which is a Class 3 industry,” said Campbell. “We’ve put the hold on for one year while we review the official plan policy that allows this,” she said. Effects from a Class 3 industry can be toxic, said Campbell. “Think ahead to say the Chapeskis build this house and then they sell it and somebody develops cancer,” said the mayor. “Then the township’s libel for something that’s clearly advised against. “What are we trying to do, it’s for health and safety that we’re having this study - it’s for Len and Bonnie’s health and safety as well as subsequent owners of the property.”

News – A company made the case at Arnprior council’s May 12 meeting for pumping oil through pipelines in Eastern Ontario. Council members listened attentively to the TransCanada Pipeline presentation. They heard all the benefits – to the economy, to customers – and none of the consequences. The other side wasn’t invited. And that is a problem for opponents. TransCanada plans to carry up to 1.1 million barrels of crude per day, including crude from the oil sands in Alberta, to refineries in Saint John, N.B. The Energy East Pipeline project will cross numerous ecologically sensitive areas, including the Madawaska River in McNab-Braeside and the Rideau River. It will not cut through Arnprior, but it is likely to the company’s advantage to make presentations before all councils throughout the Ottawa Valley. At least that is the view of Ecology Ottawa. The environmental group’s pipeline campaign organizer, Ben Powless, had trouble meeting with Ottawa city councillors after they met privately with company officials. He said the city wouldn’t meet with opponents because the project isn’t going through the municipality and, therefore, no formal review or decisions are to be made. The same could be said for Arnprior. “We think it’s a little bit suspicious,” Powless
said. “The company says it is being open, but it really is not.” The company meets with local politicians and affected landowners. The average citizen will have no formal means to express concerns, he said. However, TransCanada has held “open houses” that Ecology Ottawa has attended. THE CASE FOR
TransCanada told town council that $3.7 billion in Ontario will be handed over in tax revenue, $10 billion across Canada. There will be new pipelines constructed to link with existing ones, thereby creating jobs: 10,000 direct jobs for development and construction and 1,000 permanent jobs for operations, according to the company. Reliance on higher cost foreign oil will be lessened for Canadian consumers. The environmental footprint will be smaller than laying all new pipes, notes the company. Almost 80 per cent of the 70,000 kilometres of pipeline is already in the ground. TransCanada insists that shipping oil by pipeline is safer than any other option. Shipping it this way along an existing pipeline route will increase efficiency. Furthermore, it points out that natural gas lines from the west are running at reduced capacity (about 50 per cent of their potential.) See THE CASE, Page 7

Communications expert vies for seat on township council Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com
News – Heather Lang could provide a fresh face and perspective at the McNab-Braeside council table. She announced last week she would be vying for a council position in the municipal election this fall. Lang, who holds a BA Honours in English literature from Queen’s University, has been a writer, editor and communications specialist for more than 35 years. She runs a consulting firm from her home in White Lake. She was raised in St. Mary’s, Ont., and also spent two years living in England as a teenager. “I have strong community values and cherish country/small town living,” said Lang, who is a single parent of two sons, 27-year-old Harrison, who is taking a double major in political science and mass communications at Carleton University, and Dylan, 20, who just completed a two-year business marketing program at Algonquin College. “I’ve always been politically active,” said Lang, who over the years has campaigned for various politicians and was a youth delegate for the NDP when she was in university. She decided to run because of a
desire to see things improve at the council level. “I want to see change happen in the township. I’m not very pleased with how things have developed,” said Lang. Her work experience will provide a good background for a council role, she says. “That work involves not only collaborating with clients on what their communications needs are but also I have to distill a lot of information and package it so I’m able to wade through a lot of information and get to the crux of the material,” said Lang. “You need to be able to be objective and see all sides.” Good research abilities come in handy when researching a topic and needing to see all the parameters, said Lang. “As a communicator you have to be able to listen to people and understand where they’re coming from,” said Lang. “During the course of my work I meet a lot of people and interview a lot of people. I think that I have a very good ability to reach all sorts of people and talk to a lot of people.” Her love of the township and desire to preserve and promote rural life has spurred her to get involved. “I love living here,” said Lang,
who moved to McNab-Braeside in 2002 and lived in Arnprior before that. “I was born and raised on the farm, so I’ve always liked rural life. It grounds me.” Lang, enjoys gardening and has been a member of the Burnstown Rowing Club for 14 years. She also once taught swimming and enjoys kayaking, canoeing and hiking. What are the major issues facing residents? “Recreation and library is the big one for me. I am not in agreement with council’s direction to not enter into a joint recreation agreement with our neighbouring municipalities,” said Lang. She has some ideas on how to augment what is offered by neighbouring Renfrew and Arnprior and concentrate on the townships’ strengths. “We have beautiful rivers in the township. We have lovely recreational areas, including Burnstown Beach, Braeside Beach, Red Pine Bay and Clay Bank. I’d like to see us concentrate our efforts in developing recreational activities and sports activities that speak to our waterways,” said Lang. “At the same time, we cannot offer or build an arena. The infrastructure is there.” Having a recreation/library agree-
HEATHER LANG ment in place is one way to attract new residents to the township “I think there’s much value in cooperating with our neighbours and having a recreation and library agreement so people can use the facilities that we cannot afford to build,” said Lang. “We should be pursuing things like public/private partnerships to develop maybe, Clay Bank Park, into something.”
Listening to what the public wants is key, said Lang. “We need to take the pulse of the community and work with residents, not against residents,” she said. “I don’t think it’s out of our reach to come to an agreement.” Council should be making better use of the township’s pool of volunteers, she says. “There are a lot of really intelligent, hardworking people who live in this township, who love this township and I don’t see the council really milking that talent,” said Lang. Lang, in her fourth year as a member of the McNab Days organizing committee, doesn’t think a lot of the volunteers’ expertise is being used to the full advantage. “A council that works with us can help us develop that,” said Lang. The McNab Days events bring in tourists and new visitors. Partnerships could help enhance these events, as well, said Lang. The Braeside Miller Quarry is another big issue facing residents. “I am not in agreement with the asphalt plant proposal and I would like to do more to help the residents combat that,” said Lang. “Other municipalities must be doing something we can learn from.”

Township seniors service recognized In recognition of Seniors month (June), McNab-Braeside council selected a group of township seniors to honor for their service and dedication to the municipality. Receiving certificates of appreciation at the tea and social gathering June 5 in council chambers, in front from left, are Keith Burns, George Smith, Jessie Fraser and Bob Smith; and in back Anita Schubrink (accepting for Eric Schrubrink), Doris Campbell, Jack Bradley and Sally Bradley. Unable to attend because of other commitments were Keith and Lillian Collins. The seniors tea has been held for several years by the township.
News – It’s all over but the last-minute voting and counting of ballots. Today (Thursday) is provincial election day in Ontario with the fate of three party leaders and many candidates hanging the balance. In Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke, 7,298 people voted in the 14 advance polls from May 31 to June 6, in the top-20 of the highest totals in the province among the 107 electoral districts. Next door riding - Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington and Ottawa
South – with 7,548 ballots cast was even higher. However, Elections Ontario announced that preliminary figures for the advance polls for the 41st Provincial election indicate interest is down. An estimated 566,845 electors cast their ballot at advance polls around the province, a drop from the 603,785 electors who voted at advance polls in September, 2011. However, there were 10 days of advance polls in that election, although the hours per day were less. In 2007, 451,949 electors voted at
the advance polls that ran over 13 days. For a complete breakdown of the estimated number of electors who cast a ballot during the advance voting period by electoral district, visit http://www.elections.on.ca/enCA/Media. On election day, Thursday, June 12, voting locations will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Voters are reminded to bring their Notice of Registration Card and one piece of identification that includes name and residential address.

Plans for intensification worry residents Continued from front
R0012704842
Other concerns raised include the noise window air conditions would cause. New dumpsters and their potential odours were also brought up. Justin Ileka-Priouzeau addressed a number of the concerns, saying safety issues were being addressed, including new snow stoppers on the roof. A fence will also be added. “We are adding hundreds of thousands of dollars in value and we are looking for quality tenants,� he said, indicating they are not simply out to make money but are interested in being good neighbours. “We are not there to fill a box with a multitude of people.�
The developers say a church generates much more traffic (though not on a regular basis). Two tenants spoke to the character of their new landlords who took over the building last October, saying they have “bent over backwards to accommodate� neighbours. And that for those who can’t afford to buy a house, the landlords have improved quality of life at the former church. Opponents say they don’t have a problem with existing tenants or even the current owners. But apartment dwellers and owners change hands frequently, and the worry is that if it gets approved for six units, less credible folks could take over. They say one apartment will have the square footage of a bungalow with three bed-
rooms. That is not something a retired couple would move into. It was raised that the last landlord applied to the town for the same zoning change, allowing for six apartments. It was approved then challenged by a neighbour at the Ontario Municipal Board. The neighbour won. However, planner Robin Smith explained that anyone can apply for a change provided they pay the roughly $1,600 and circumstances warrant it. In this case, she said, the town has changed its official plan to encourage “intensification� in existing neighbourhoods. (That lessens infrastructure burdens such as snowplowing and raises tax revenue.) Smith will recommend at the June 23 meeting that coun-

cil approve the six units. She said traffic won’t be an issue and that the town will have a strong say during the site plan process that oversees fencing, noise, lighting and even whether snow can be piled in the parking lot or must be removed. ‘SHODDY, APPALLING’
Mayor David Reid said he liked the idea that town will ensure the project meets high standards. He said he is sensitive to neighbours’ concerns. And he even went so far as to scold the landlords for the current state of the property. “It’s zoned for three apartments and an institution and it could move to six. It could be worse as an institution,� Reid said. “I went over there today and I know there is work going on inside the property. But I have to say the property is shoddy outside and quite frankly appalling. Empty fridges, broken fences: it’s not respectful for neighbours.� He added that he is not opposed to the plan but wants “tight controls� over the site plan. The owners said they planned to work on the exterior if approval was granted. The mayor shot back that ongoing maintenance is done by every property owner who respects their neighbours. “It sends a message as to what your intentions are,� said Reid, himself a developer.
An opponent afterward warned that this is an election year and that those who plan to run again ought to keep that in mind when deciding the issue. VILLAGE CREEK
A little over half the crowd left before the Bert Hall Street in Village Creek subdivision issue came up. In that case Pegasus Development wants to change its original plan of having 16 single detached homes on the street to 25 townhouse units. The rationale goes like this: the market is demanding fewer large family homes and more smaller – in this case linked bungalows with garages – units. Also, council had approved a similar change to the Callaghan subdivision. Although much of the way was paved by the last council in that case, the current council gave final approval and may be seen as playing favourites if it denies the latest request. That didn’t deter opponents who bought into Pegagus’ plan and believed that neighbouring houses would be single detached homes. They call it unfair and that property values will plummet. They said townhome owners often rent instead of live in their units and that renters are less likely to take care of the property. Also, the increased population would mean more traffic near a play area and park with young children. They added that many are already parking on the street (because garages are used for storage) and that it would only worsen with more nine addi-
tional units. One commenter went to so far as to say the neighbourhood would turn into a “townhome ghetto.� Reeve Walter Stack appeared to have had enough of both issues. He said the market is driving demand, that fairness to all developers is important, and that more traffic will come along regardless of which plan is accepted. But, his major point was in the overall attitude of opponents. “People are entitled to find a place to live and buy a new home. Now the economy is not strong,� he said. He indicated that lower income folks aren’t synonymous with unsavory. That young families or retiring boomers could move into less expensive homes. And that it is the town’s responsibility to welcome a variety of income levels. Stack himself once owned a townhome and sold it for a decent profit. On property values – he said there is no proof that town property values have decreased at any point in the last 15 years. Reid was still on the fence, saying he could understand both sides. He said the town needs to come up with a policy in the future to ensure all developers are treated equally when it comes to changing from singles to townhomes. Now that the public meeting part of the process is complete, council will consider the planner’s recommendation and vote to approve the changes or delay the decision to a future bi-weekly council meeting.

River reaches spring run-off The case against TransCanada’s pipeline highs two years in a row Continued from Page 4
Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com
News – Snow has melted and flowed into the Ottawa River at record levels over the last couple of springs. Ontario Power Generation (OPG) made the proclamation at a public meeting held at the Galilee Centre in Arnprior on June 5. But it comes with some qualifiers. They have only been measuring the flow for the past 30 years. It is record-setting for a given period, say a certain week, not the entire season. And it applies primarily to the Otto Holden station, but also at record levels are OPG’s three stations closer to Arnprior and West Carleton, including Chats Falls in Fitzroy. “The last two years have been consistently higher, especially at the upper ends of the basin,” explained Marc Bisson of OPG. “The major (water) storage regions are still the same. They haven’t changed.” The storage capacity, largely north of the river in Quebec, can hold about 40 per cent of spring runoff. That places a limit on how much
COURTESY OF OPG
The Ottawa River Basin covers a vast region from just north of Brockville to Bancroft North Bay and over to near Montreal. Most storage for spring runoff is in Quebec. Although almost 14 billion cubic metres can be stored, that only represents about 40 per cent of the season’s runoff. power can be generated, and in turn how much profit can be made for OPG and Hydro-Quebec. The companies typically make between $300- and $350-million per year off the Ottawa River system. A lot depends on water availability, and marketplace supply and demand, Bisson said. It’s even possible that more money could be made from a
drier year. MADAWASKA RIVER
Don Ferko gave the Madawaska River presentation to the half dozen or more at the Christian retreat in Arnprior. He said spring discharges were “a little higher” than normal at the river’s five stations.

THE TOWNSHIP OF LANARK HIGHLANDS
All environmental guidelines will be followed, promises the company. It will collaborate with local communities and Aboriginal groups for data collection. New pump stations will be built for better monitoring. The $12 billion project should be ready by 2018. Leaks and ruptures can permanently depopulate areas. Even downtown Ottawa could be seriously affected by a rupture near the Rideau, Powless said. He added that the 40-year-old pipelines aren’t the only threat; trains are also involved. Ecology Ottawa pointed to trains taking diluents and light and flammable hydrocarbons used to take the crude through pipelines back to Alberta by train. “This would lead to as much as 450 train cars of highly toxic and flammable diluents being shipped across the country every single day,” according a press release. The environmental group considers that the tar sands are a significant contributor to climate change and catastrophes such as the flood in High River, Alta, which caused $200 million in damage.

Much of the crude oil will go by tanker to larger and more profitable markets in Europe India, China and the U.S. It is unlikely Canadians can expect lower gasoline prices because of the project, say environmental groups. In fact, there is some concern that natural gas prices could spike because of it, they say. Investing in fossil fuel infrastructure detracts from needed investments, according to Ecology Ottawa, in a green energy future. TransCanada’s two other projects, Keystone through the U.S. and Northern Gateway through British Columbia, are facing mounting public pressure to the point they many have be abandoned. “They are hoping Eastern Canada won’t care as much as people in the U.S. and B.C. about catastrophic climate change,” Powless said. “We are slowly showing them they are wrong about that idea.”

Keep pesky ‘skeeters’ at bay
B
uzz, ouch, smack, curse. It’s been a nasty spring for mosquitoes this year. If the onslaught of mosquitoes this spring wasn’t enough of a reminder, area health officials have issued a warning reminding us all that the flying biters are potentially dangerous as well as being a pest. Not only can they can they raise a welt, they could be passing on the West Nile Virus to unsuspecting victims. Health unit officials are stressing that with the large number of skeeters this year it’s more important than ever to protect yourself from bites. Although the chances of contracting West Nile virus are generally low, there are still risks. Fortunately, there are simple and effective measures you can take to reduce these risks. So don’t be deterred from spending time outdoors and being active, enjoying this wonderful weather after what has been a much-toolong winter. The majority of people infected with West
Nile virus (about 70-80 per cent) have no symptoms and do not feel sick. So unless you’re elderly and have immune system problem, heading out into the great outdoors, mosquitoes or not, is a good idea, for both the body and the soul. But protect yourselves against mosquito bites and West Nile virus by using insect repellent that contains DEET or Icaridin or other approved ingredients (always read and follow the directions on the insect repellent container, especially when using on young children). You should also wear light-coloured clothing (sorry, you fans of black), a long-sleeved shirt, and long pants when frequenting high mosquito areas such as the woods. As well, make sure your screen doors and windows are in good repair and get rid of as much standing water as you can from around your home and property (keep the water in your bird baths fresh). Those darn mosquitoes are plentiful enough this year without getting any help from their human targets to feed and multiply.

McNab-Braeside township council discourages development To the Editor: In response to the recent revelations of Mayor Campbell and hopeful Aldene Styles campaign intent, regarding development in McNabBraeside, I would like to inform voters of my struggles with their impulsive decisions. It is incredible to read their comments acknowledging the desperate
need for development, and yet witness the contrary. They, along with all council members have taken a combative position towards my business and property development, severely restricting my legitimate application. I repeat, legitimate! Going to such extremes as an “interim bylaw� and delaying tactics to
accomplish absurd treatment of an expanding business. These tactics not only affect me, but any future enterprising residents who might want to live and work from home. Many people, including developers, surveyors, professionals, landowners and even potential citizens, have expressed frustration dealing
with the township of conflict. Welcoming new residents with a threatening letter is also not an effective method to encourage people to move to this township. It certainly seems the knee-jerk direction of this council is to stifle growth, and inhibit business in the township at a time when pressure on raising taxes is imminent.
It is election year. To avoid another four years of haphazard policies, and an aggressive approach towards development and land owners in this township, I will choose wisely. I suggest you do the same. Bonnie Chapeski McNab-Braeside
Arnprior council should stop trying to take advantage of McNab-Braeside To the Editor: I can see that the business of the Arnprior/McNab-Braeside issue with the library and the Nick Smith Centre is still hanging on. What a lot of just plain stupidity this is. First, I’m not sure of the exact figures, but I know that with McNabBraeside kicking in $45 for every household that wants access to the library, up to now they have paid out far less than $10,000. Even if they put in the $60 for every one of the 500 households (that is a number given to me by the library personnel), and I am told that the charge is by household, that is still $30,000.
Where does Arnprior come by the $80,000 or $90,000 asked for? I think the Township is being fleeced. The same thing applies to the Nick Smith Centre. There are no specific numbers for the people from McNabBraeside that are using the facility. If Arnprior was at all interested in finding out who and how many, they should implement a card system such as the library uses. It wouldn’t be hard or expensive to do and they could give the proper numbers on who is using what. I think that the Nick Smith Centre is in trouble and are trying to use money from M-B to help bail them-
selves out. M-B cannot be blamed for not wanting to write a cheque for a couple of hundred thousand and not know what it is they are paying for and have no say in how it is run and no equity in the building. It is “just give us the money.� I don’t think so. As far as this farce of a petition that went around re. the use of the Nick Smith Centre, I hope that no one is taking this seriously. The numbers are definitely fraudulent. Three people in a household each say yes, then the next question to each person is “how many people in this household?� The answer, of course, is three. On the petition this
adds up to nine people. There are addresses of roads that don’t exist, etc. This is just garbage and I hope it is treated as such. I am glad that the library and the Nick Smith Centre are there and available for use by M-B residents. We are in close proximity and it does make sense. What doesn’t make sense is how Arnprior council is treating M-B. I’m glad that the M-B council has finally woken up. If you can’t be honest with figures and billing, then forget it. While I am on the subject of Arnprior council, the Arnprior dump,

Reduction means recovery when it comes to Ontario
Now to my point of reduction means recovery. This province has a debt of close to $290,000,000,000 (that’s $290 billion for those young folks out there who studied the Wynne Discovery Math implemented at schools when she was the education minister) and is currently running a deficit of close to $13,000,000 000, which puts the province well over the $300-billion mark on debt (imagine the interest costs alone). Don’t unions care about the debt? Will the future union leaders pay it down or will they

Opinion -Today (Thursday) is election day - so please make sure you vote. This is a free democratic announcement. Candidates need to know on what and whom you want to spend yout tax dollars. Voter turnout is important - the more people who vote, the stronger the message from the public. And if you’re too lazy to exercise your responsibility or couldn’t care less, then move to Russia where this right (to choose ) is taken away from you and you are forced to vote for the only candidate the State puts forward under severe penalties should you not show up (e.g. Putin) - French fries, cheese and gravy anyone? Also, I agree with last week’s editorial in the Arnprior Chronicle-Guide that stated “those who choose not to vote shouldn’t be able to complain about the outcome afterwords.� So go to your designated polling station and express your opinion with an X. Personally, I will vote for the Conservative party because I find that their policies reflect more of my values than the other two parties. You should do the same, vote for the party that in your opinion is the closest to your way of thinking. Obviously, I’m in the minority as more people in this province vote for the Liberals and the NDP where their combined support is around 65 per cent based on the last election. Am I depressed, no. Am I disappointed, yes. Why? Because only 48.2 per cent of the eligible voters voted in 2011, less than half of eligible voters. If the majority of people don’t vote, how do we know that the outcome is the real will of the public, and democracy suffers because it shows that the majority don’t care. But yet I’ll bet they still complain and they complain the loudest. I’ve heard it right here in Arnprior from many that I’ve talked to when we talk politics. They say, “I can’t be bothered cause they’re all the same.� Not true! Bad ones get in because not enough people vote, which hurts the good ones. By voting, we hold the elected officials accountable for how they performed during their last term and if they did not keep their promises or if they did an about-face on a major issue, vote them out or whatever but vote. I don’t know about you but when leaders of political parties say, “My plan� or “I will,� it ticks me off. Are they or are they not part of a team called a political party. Wynne (Liberal) and Hudak (Conservative) are the worst. Horwath (NDP ) is OK. It’s not just one person running the province, it’s a team, if elected, the government. So the leaders should be saying “our plan� and “we will.� As they say in sports, “there is no ‘I’ in team.� If the Liberals win the election, it will be because the public sector unions (firefighters, OPP, teachers) have used the ‘fear factor’, buying ads that distort the truth. They claim that Hudak will fire 100,000 public servants, making it seem like right away, and Wynne reinforces this notion by stating
that it will put Ontario into a recession. Not bankrupt the province? Now one party if elected wants to increase true - (using the Liberal leader’s favorite exspending by $29 billion on infrastructure to pression during the debate). The Conservative plan is to reduce the create jobs over the next four years, while at public service by 100,000 through attrition the same time there will be no staff reduc(averages about 10 per cent per year - so tions, all collective bargaining agreements about 35,000 people won’t be fired) and will be honoured, they have a 10-year enoutsourcing over a four-year period - not ergy plan to get rid of coal-fired plants (this right away. That’s 25,000 per year out of energy is too cheap), and continue to pursue 1,200,000 public servants. Hardly recession green energies such as wind and solar and type numbers and it’s been proven that those after all this increase in spending they still promise to balance the budget by 2017. laid off do find jobs in the private sector. Really? How can they balance a budget If the NDP win the election, it will be because the Liberals and the Conservatives by increasing spending? That’s like saying split the vote and NDP come up through the this hole I’m digging will not get deeper, but middle (if this happens watch how quickly I will continue digging.

Fringe parties offer plethora of voting options Derek Dunn
EQUAL PARENTING PARTY
derek.dunn@metroland.com
Opinion - Today (Thursday) is election day and maybe you are having a tough time trying to decide from among the three ‘lamestream’ parties. Why not consider others vying for your attention? Below is a list of registered political parties in Ontario as of May 22, according to Elections Ontario. VEGAN ENVIRONMENTAL PARTY
It would be glib to say only vegetables vote for this party. Pretty sure, if asked, family pets would lean toward the Vegans. ONTARIO MODERATE PARTY
No meritocracy here. This is radical centrism as its finest. Death to all extremes! CANADIANS’ CHOICE PARTY
Their slogan is “A bottom up approach to engage citizens.” From the website we learn that, in the first headline, Ontarians need a “fresh breed” of representatives. There is also the usual complaining about not getting a fair shake from the media and dominate parties conspiring to keep independents out. It sounds like an oxymoron,
but Canadians’ Choice Party is a group for independents. Luckily, candidates are described as “true patriots” who work for constituents and not party leaders. That should single them out. COMMUNIST PARTY OF CANADA
You have to admire their never-giveup attitude. SOCIALIST PARTY OF ONTARIO
See above. To ensure they aren’t unequalled – see below.
Because divorce isn’t messy enough, why not wedge it into the even more adversarial election process? This party was borne out of frustrations single parents, usually fathers, experience dealing with the legal system. “We are calling on the legislature of Ontario to amend the current Family Law Act to reflect the equality of both parents.” THE PEOPLES POLITICAL PARTY
No, not another left-wing populist party. Founded in 2011 by homeless man and perennial election candidate Kevin Clarke, The Peoples Political Party stretches the word “peoples.” It’s basically one person, with four candidates in the last election. Clarke is a busy man, running against Mayor Rob Ford and others in Toronto.
PARTY FOR PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
Their slogan is: When we help people with disabilities we help everyone. Among the issues it focuses on: Ontario Housing - $904 capital maintenance budget; Registered Disability Savings Plan - no clawback; Time Bomb - Where do street people come from? Audiology - where is a national standard? A National Disabilities Card. PAUPER PARTY OF ONTARIO
Paupers say: Apathy is boring. It’s basically aimed at impoverished students. The party, formed in 2011, aims for the institution of interest-free government loans, the “end of policing of gambling, sex, and drug use.” Someone needs to curb their vices.
tion Party of Ontario (FEDS are at the wrong level); Toronto Provincial Party (shouldn’t that read Toronto Centre of the Universe Party?) FREEDOM PARTY OF ONTARIO
Mostly they want freedom from being called libertarians. That and the elimination of provincial income tax and monopolized healthcare. “Freedom” is a magical word in the U.S., less so in country with a history of “peace, order and good government.” ONTARIO LIBERTARIAN PARTY
They want to be exactly like the Freedom Party. Out of spite. (Warning: the proceeding sentence may or may not be free from accuracy.)
TRILLIUM PARTY OF ONTARIO
Generally, parties with flower names haven’t worked out so well (think Wild Rose in Alberta). But it seems the Trillium Party is little more than a name. There isn’t even a website. Just for interest there are a number of “Reserved political parties” according to Elections Ontario: God at Work, Love in Action (sounds lewd); Royal Canadian Equity Party (wage parity among police forces?); The Federa-
NORTHERN ONTARIO HERITAGE PARTY
Heritage parties aren’t exactly renowned for their inclusivity, but this is going a little far. What’s next, the North Western Ontario Heritage Party? NONE OF THE ABOVE PARTY
That’s a lot of rejection. Maybe it is you, not them.

Each year, 50,000 strokes occur in Canada - that is one stroke every 10 minutes. Thankfully, most people survive stroke; but most stroke survivors are left with some degree of disability - ranging from mobility deficits, to loss of speech or memory, to complete disability requiring long-term care. Today, approximately 315,000 Canadians and their families are living with the Know the Five Signs of a Stroke: Weakness Sudden loss of strength or sudden numbness in the face, arm or leg, even if temporary. Trouble speaking Sudden difficulty speaking or understanding or sudden confusion, even if temporary. Vision problems Sudden trouble with vision, even if temporary. Headache Sudden severe and unusual headache. Dizziness Sudden loss of balance, especially with any of the above signs.

Did you know that your community hospital is in the top 30% of Canadian Hospitals? The results of our Accreditation review, of both the hospital and nursing home, is 98.4%. In total 1,519 standards were assessed. In their report, the surveyors highlighted ARH’s many strengths and praised our programs, staff, services and culture. ARH was also recognized for 3 new leading practices. The three specific practices for ARH included Falls Prevention, Physician Score Card and the Integrated COPD Program. Jay Johnston, ARH Board Chair, noted “The Board of Directors is most proud of this achievement. The dedicated and committed team at Arnprior Regional Health is to be commended for such an outstanding result.” Mr. Johnston also noted how the rating of “exemplary” was consistent with the vision of Arnprior Regional Health which is to be “recognized for exemplary care.”

Flying dragons and damsels that cause distress Lifestyle - One of the most recognizable insects is a dragonfly. We encounter these fourwinged masters of the air effortlessly patrolling fields and ponds, woodland paths and rivers. In recent days countless thousands have suddenly appeared. However, contrary to popular legend, they have not been dropped off by government planes to control biting insects. When we see a dragonfly, we see an insect in its senior years. Young dragonflies live in the water for a year or more. There they bear no wings and breathe through gills oddly situated inside their back end. Although they look very different than their adult forms, dragonfly nymphs share one feature with them: they are voracious predators. As waters warm, the aquatic nymphs crawl onto shore. There they undergo one of the most amazing transformations of any animal. Their back splits open and through this doorway unfolds the newly formed adult. Once free of its nymphal prison, the newly emerged dragonfly pumps its crumpled
Michael Runtz Nature’s Way wings full of dragonfly blood. The wings unfold and harden enough to allow their owner to flutter to safety. After several days, the four wings fully stiffen and the dragonfly becomes a flying marvel. These insects can accelerate faster than a Porsche, hover like a helicopter, and even fly backward. Their huge eyes - encompassing most of the head - search the sky for food and danger. Once a meal is spotted, with lightning speed the dragonfly homes in on its prey, snatching it with their front legs formed into a basket. The lower lip shoots out and pulls the victim into the
hunter’s mouth. Large mandibles equipped with serrated edges (these give rise to the animals’ scientific name the “Odonates,� which means “Toothed Ones.�) slice and dice the prey into manageable pieces. Myths concerning dragonflies have been around since medieval times. One was that dragonflies sew together the lips of children that lied or misbehaved. Another was that dragonflies sting. Yet another was that dragonflies live for only one day. Dragonflies live for many days. Nymphs spend a year or more in the water. The flying, adult stage survives for weeks, sometimes more than a month. Currently the brown Baskettails are particularly common.

Fire department launches home safety program News - For almost a decade, volunteer members of the Arnprior Fire Department have conducted home smoke alarm inspections as part of the Town of Arnprior’s Smoke Alarm Program. This year is no exception. Recently Arnprior Council approved a new program for the fire department entitled the ‘Home Fire and Life Safety Program’. Much like the smoke alarm program, the new program promotes the installation and testing of smoke alarms and educates the public in regards to the Ontario Fire Code requirements for smoke alarms in all homes. HOME ESCAPE PLAN
As well, the new program educates residents about the importance of preparing and practicing a home fire escape plan. The new program will also promote the installation and testing of carbon monoxide
alarms in all homes. In December 2013, Bill 77, an amendment to the Fire Protection and Prevention Act, received royal assent in provincial parliament. HAWKINS GIGNAC ACT
The legislation, which has the short name of Hawkins Gignac Act, provides for the regulation of carbon monoxide alarms through amendments to the Ontario Fire Code. These coming amendments to the Ontario Fire Code will soon make carbon monoxide alarms mandatory in all homes with fuel-fired appliances and/ or attached garages. Throughout June members of the Arnprior Fire Department will once again be knocking on doors asking for co-operation in order to inspect and test homes’ smoke alarms. In addition, members will also inquire about carbon monoxide alarms in the home and advise of the upcoming changes to the Fire Code.
This year’s program is expected to reach 200 residences in the community. Firefighters will be visiting in the evening hours during the week and daytime hours on the weekend. They will be dressed in Arnprior Fire Department uniforms and carrying proper identification. Homeowners are encouraged to be co-operative and invite firefighters into their homes to allow them to inspect and test alarms. TEST ALARMS MONTHLY
While this service is provided by the Arnprior Fire Department, residents should not wait for a knock on the door to have their alarms tested. Test your alarms every month and change the batteries at least once a year or whenever the low-battery warning chirps. Do not remove the batteries for any other reason, advises the fire department.
Aircraft to fly over town area News - Aircraft from the Royal Canadian Air Force may be flying over the Arnprior area this week and next. Garrison Petawawa has issued a notice saying that the military is conducting flights over the Garrison Petawawa training area June 11 to
Any questions anyone may have regarding smoke alarms or the upcoming changes regarding carbon monoxide alarms can be directed to the
Arnprior Fire Department’s fire prevention office at 613623-4231, ext. 250, or the fire chief at extension 248. For additional information,

Dealmakers’ show benefits families Arnprior Bluegrass concert to help students in need Events – An up-and-coming area band has agreed to play a benefit on Friday, June 20 in town for two Arnprior families going through tough times because of health problems. The Dealmakers, Fortune Magazine Battle of the Corporate Bands finalists, have entertained audiences all over Canada and the U.S. in the last five years, including shows at BB King’s in Nashville, Chicago and the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas. They are bringing their aggressive mix of southern blues and ‘80s and ‘90s rock mixed in with Celtic to the John St. Pub to help the Hamilton and Pilon families. If any of their earlier shows are any indication, the dance floor will be full all night. The effort to help the families has been embraced by the John St. Pub owners, who will donate some of the proceeds of the next night’s show as well. The Dealmakers started out as a company band formed by a group of high tech engineers. It led to performances at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland twice, where Dealmaker and Arnprior resident Peter Landon was chosen ‘Best Guitarist’ in the 2012 battle finals, and drummer Tom Brodeur was awarded ‘Best Drummer’ in 2010. When the band members heard about the recent health care struggles that the Pilon and Hamilton families were facing, they felt they wanted to
LISA LANDON/SUBMITTED
The Dealmakers include, from left, Peter Landon of Arnprior, Tom Brodeur of Bostone, Pete Dale of Chicago, and Duncan Baird and Dan Bamford both of Ottawa. do something to help. Both families have members with complex health care needs that demand multiple trips from Arnprior to Ottawa hospitals. “Having a sick loved one is very stressful and eventually gets hard on the pocket book with extra costs for gas, parking and medical equipment and supplies not covered by health care insurance plans,� pointed out Lisa Landon, a friend of the families and spouse of the Dealmakers guitarist Peter Landon. “These fellows are all high tech professionals with busy day jobs, just doing what they love as a hobby, and using it to help members in their communities,� she explained. Tickets for the benefit were put
on sale at $20 with all proceeds to be donated to the two local families. Within a week all tickets were sold, as friends and neighbors came forward wanting to support the two local families. Since the show sold out so quickly, Nick Xidous of the John St. Pub graciously offered all cover charge proceeds from the Saturday, June 21 show featuring ‘Garden of Weeds’ to be donated to the families as well. Tickets for the Saturday show are available at Steve and Denis Restaurant below the pub or at the door. “This is the advantage of living a small community; when times are tough everyone pulls together to do what they can to help out,� said Lisa Landon.
Events - Community support agencies across Renfrew County from Arnprior to Deep River and Barry’s Bay are working together with the Child Poverty Action Network (CPAN) on their first ever collaborative fundraising event, designed to assist “all ages and stages� of the community. If you enjoy Bluegrass music or even if you don’t, come out Monday July 14 at 6:30 p.m. to St. John Chrysostom Parish Hall in Arnprior for an evening of acoustic music, with Junior Sisk and Ramblers Choice, an award-winning band from Virginia. The benefit concert will share its proceeds with the Renfrew County Community Transportation Collaborative (RCCTC) and CPAN. Funds will be used for transportation subsidies and ‘back-to-school’ supplies. The cost of transportation to medical appointments can cause great hardship to those living on fixed income, note officials of the two groups. This is especially true for anyone travelling long distances for dialysis. And dialysis happens three times each week. “The costs can really add up and cause huge problems and stress,� add fundraiser organizers. The Transportation Collaborative, working under the sponsorship of Carefor Health and Community Services, works to provide as much subsidy as
possible for those who need it. The CPAN works to raise funds to help purchase back-to-school supplies, backpacks and shoes for families living on a limited budget, costs that can be very stressful. Children need to be socially included and have the same access to resources as their peers, if they are to do well in school. When children are included and helped to succeed, they will do much better as adults, note CPAN officials. The Arnprior concert will help children living in poverty as well as those who have life-threatening medical conditions and need transportation to obtain treatment. The fundraiser will start at 5 p.m. with a charity barbecue in the parking lot at the back of the St. John Chrysostom parish hall, with entertainment provided by local Ottawa Valley musicians. Valley Heritage Radio is on board as a partner and will help promote the event and serve as a ticket outlet. Local community support and home support agencies that provide transportation services will also have tickets available. As well, tickets may also be purchased from CPAN. Call Alice Grenon of Carefor Health and Community Services at 613-7329993, ext. 3220 or CPAN’s Lyn Smith at 613-735-2374, ext. 250 for more information or to volunteer to help.

NEW DEVELOPMENT IN ARNPRIOR
For More Information about Our Wide Selection of Rental Properties,
News – At 7 p.m. Sunday the numbers lit up on the giant tote board and told the story of a region that truly loves and supports its children’s hospital. The final total for the CHEO Telethon on CTV was a record $7,121,350. Arnprior area residents helped break last year’s $6.7-million record if the amount pledged to staff manning the phones at the Arnprior Cooperators office was any indication. The more than $15,000 donated by callers was almost double the amount usually collected by the local insurance office. That total also includes contributions made by the public at festivities Sunday at Cooperators’ parking lot on Madawaska Boulevard. The CTV broadcast, which began at 7 p.m. Saturday, was a celebration of all things CHEO, including patient stories and interviews with CHEO doctors, nurses and staff. There were cheque presentations from a multitude of special event organizers, donors and sponsors. The final dollar total includes money presented to the CHEO Foundation from special fundraising events and activities conducted throughout the year as well as phone and online donations made by viewers during the telethon. “We are so fortunate to live in such a kind and caring community,” said Kevin Keohane, CEO of the CHEO Foundation. “Children represent our future and the support that CHEO receives at Telethon time and throughout the year enables the CHEO staff to provide them with the best possible care. This weekend always has such a special feel as we get to acknowledge and appreciate all of the incredible people who do so much for the children and youth at CHEO. “On their behalf, I send out our warmest thanks to everyone who helped make this amazing total a reality. You truly do make a difference in the lives of the families who need CHEO.” Proceeds will help CHEO buy specialized medical equipment, make much needed renovations within the hospital, and conduct life-saving research in areas such as cancer, youth mental health and childhood obesity. Telethon funds will also help improve the pediatric nature of the hospital by buying games, toys and crafts to make a patient’s stay at CHEO as comfortable as possible.

The band puts on seven different looks and brings a video display that is a history lesson on Motley Crue. “What we do is pure entertainment and you don’t have to be a fan of Motley Crue to enjoy it,� says a news release promoting the show. The band has performed with Vince Neil and John Corabi, the two singers of the real Motley Crue.

News – Mama Burgers, Papa Burgers and root beer with frosted mugs, here we come. The A&W burger restaurant is opening an outlet in Renfrew this fall and is coming to Arnprior within the next two years. Lakeshore Group consultant Stephen Gardiner told Renfrew council at its May 26 meeting that it submitted a site-plan application for Canadian Tire Real Estate, which owns the property where the 1,862-square foot A&W franchise is to be built. The restaurant will be located at 1050 O’Brien Rd. in Renfrew, just off Wrangler Road, next to the Canadian Tire gas bar. Construction should get underway in June, once the site plan is signed by Canadian Tire, A&W Food Services and the Town of Renfrew.
Council has approved the site-plan application. The site plan calls for a drive-through to accommodate seven vehicles, while there is additional parking for those eating in the restaurant. The Renfrew outlet will be the second A&W in Renfrew County, with the first being in the Pembroke Mall East. There are also outlets in Ottawa and Carleton Place. “It certainly met our scrutiny,” said Ken Reynolds, director of A&W franchise sales in Ontario. There’s also a franchise in Pembroke, while others are planned for Arnprior and Petawawa in the next two years, he added. With more than 800 franchises, A&W is the second largest fast-food, burger chain in the country. Canada’s first A&W opened in Winnipeg in 1956.

The purpose is to provide young people with an opportunity to experience the democratic process firsthand and practice the habits of informed and engaged citizenship. “It is essential to start teaching students about government and the voting process at a young age,” said Angelo (last name not provided), a Grade 12 student at TD Christian High School in Vaughan. “Voter turnout is currently at an all-time low. But something tells me that will not be the case in a couple of years, thanks to increased student interest in elections and the Student Vote program,” he added. Student Vote is the flagship program of CIVIX, a national registered charity building the capacity and commitment of young Canadians to participate in their democracy. Elections Ontario has engaged CIVIX to deliver the Student Vote program in conjunction with the 41st general election.

News – A student from Fitzroy Harbour was one of two quoted in a news release announcing that hundreds of thousands of Ontario students cast ballots for the official candidates running in their electoral district between June 4 and 11. More than 1,600 high and elementary schools in all 107 electoral districts registered to participate in Student Vote 2014 in conjunction with today’s provincial election. In this area, St. Joseph’s students in Arnprior held a vote last week and St. Michael’s in Fitzroy were to cast ballots Wednesday. “It is our right, privilege and duty as Canadian citizens to be opinionated about who will guide our future,” the news release quotes Asa Campbell, a Grade 8 student from St. Michael Catholic School in Fitzroy. “It is important that we learn how to cut through the propaganda behind campaigning and figure out who will be the best representative of the public,” she added. Student Vote is a parallel election for students under the voting age that coincides with official election periods. Students learn about the democratic process, party platforms and local candidates through classroom learning and discussions, campaign events and take-home activities. The program culminated with an authentic inschool vote, whereby students take on the roles of election officials and cast ballots for the official candidates running in their electoral district.

The increased hydro rates issue was fully discussed as farmers are unable to take advantage of time-of-use rates. In addition, Ontario electricity rates are higher than other provincial hydro rates in Canada. This cost also puts Ontario farmers at a competitive disadvantage with other producing areas in Canada. It is felt by the NFU that whoever wins on June 12 should be looking at supplying Ontario farmers with hydro energy at a reduced rate similar to what some other manufacturing segments are receiving. The pending closure of Kemptville Agricultural College with its trade and agricultural training components was discussed. It was pointed out that many concessions in this riding have Kemptville graduates actively farming. Statistics show that Canada has 70 per cent fewer young farmers than a decade ago, points out the NFU. “What other professions would close training institution doors with statistics like that. Quite the opposite should be happening – attract young people to these careers and trades.â€? Also, it was pointed out by the NFU that not only should this province be training young farmers but extending agricultural research in eastern Ontario. On the endangered species legislation, the family farmers who attended the meeting with candidates said they have protected endangered species for decades. Yet the Ministry through this legislation is attempting to penalize family farmers in the riding. It was proposed the Ontario government compensate farmers for the protection of the species as all of Ontario beneďŹ ts. The provincial endorsement of the CanadaEurope Free Trade Agreement (CETA) was discussed. While farmers support free trade and fair trade, this draft agreement if implemented has the potential to restrict municipal and most provincial ‘buy local’ policies and reduce the rights of farmers to save seed from year to year, stressed the NFU. 0612.R0012749545
OPEN HOUSE GUIDE
News – The Renfrew County Local of the National Farmers Union (NFU) reports that its ofďŹ cials have met and/or discussed electronically with the riding’s provincial election candidates many issues affecting local family farms and consumers. In a news release, Renfrew County NFU president Tony Straathof points out that as Ontario accounts for about one-quarter of Canada’s gross revenue from agriculture all candidates vying for a seat in the Ontario legislature should be familiar with what is happening on the agricultural front across the province. “That is why we have met on a one-on-one basis with the six candidates in our riding,â€? Straathof explained. Renfrew County NFU’s written discussion paper for the candidates outlined some 14 different issues, ranging from the Farm Tax/Managed Forest Program right down to tire stewardship fees. In respect to the Farm Tax Rebate Program, the province in 2014 eliminated the grant and downloaded the costs onto rural municipalities. Most affected were municipalities with a large farm assessment base. This cancellation of the grant in lieu funding has literally “crippledâ€? some local high-density agricultural land municipalities, charges the NFU. As a result, the NFU requested that whoever gets into power in Ontario must re-invent this program by giving the municipality the full compensation as in the past or revert back to the original design and reimburse the qualifying farmers that portion of “unfair taxesâ€? levied against buildings and land. On the tire stewardship tax issue, the NFU pointed out that because other provinces do not levy such fees, or in some case they are minimal, this tax puts Ontario farmers at a competitive disadvantage. An elimination of the Ontario Stewardship Tire Fee for Ontario farmers was proposed to the candidates so they will be treated the same as in other provinces.

Five of six candidates have their say at forum steve.newman@metroland.com
more educational assistants and up to 1,000 specialty teachers, and to creating a fund to keep schools open in more rural areas such as Renfrew County. Dougherty also took a strong stand for teachers when he stressed that teachers need to be treated fairly by an open and honest government that listens to them. On the issue of full-day kindergarten, Yakabuski said his party was opposed to that expansion, which is being completed next school year. He said the PCs “won’t turn the clock back,” but that streamlining will be necessary. During the forum, emcee Barber identified concerned citizens (informally known as the Join the Fight Against High Hydro Rate group) who had collected 500 surveys from people across Renfrew County with their feedback on skyrocketing hydro bills. This group asked the candidates at the all-candidates forum what short- and long-term plans their party would bring to alleviate the burden of high hydro costs and make Hydro One more accountable. Boileau said the Liberals have spent money to improve Hydro One’s infrastructure, after previous Conservative governments focused on bal-
ancing the budget instead of making those investments, but acknowledged that changes are in order to reduce hydro costs. Steps to address the high hydro bills include dropping the debt retirement charges. It’s just going to take time, but the investment in green technology is saving jobs and will create jobs, as coal- and nuclear-based energy providers are phased out or eliminated, added Boileau. Yakabuski couldn’t resist jabbing back. “I know you haven’t been deeply involved with the Liberal Party for long, but you have certainly wholeheartedly accepted their kool-aid,” said the MPP. “They would have you believing this place was falling apart before they came into office, and that’s a wonderful excuse for the increases you have seen under the current government.” Hydro costs will also go down, said Dougherty, when the number of seven-figure, hydro-related jobs are reduced. All candidates addressed the issue of job creation. Yakabuski trumpeted his party’s plan to reduce the corporate tax rate by 30 per cent. “We have to get out of the way
and help create the climate so the job creators have a chance of competing with other jurisdictions,” said Yakabuski, citing the need to also help the economy with changes to the hydro landscape, reduction of red tape for job creators, and the addition of 100,000 job apprentices in the province. As far as the PCs’ job-creation promises, Dougherty got his own dig in. “You don’t have a million unemployed people in Ontario let alone the need for a million jobs … How’s he (Tim Hudak) going to make it happen, by buying corporations and hoping they create jobs, or by selling off public corporations and hoping the private sector takes them over?” In contrast, Dougherty said the NDP’s Buy Ontario plan will encourage companies of all sizes to invest in their own businesses. “That basically means, if something is mined, farmed, resourced or harvested in Ontario, it is then processed in Ontario. Our trees aren’t going to Quebec and our minerals aren’t going overseas, our oil isn’t going to the States to be refined. Investing in Ontario is the best way to create jobs.” All candidates, except Reid, supported ongoing expansion of Highway 17 through the county.

News - Five of six RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke candidates showed up for the second of two all-candidates forums, and each had their moments. Differences of opinion surfaced when the three candidates expected to lead the polls – Rod Boileau of the Liberal Party, Brian Dougherty of the New Democratic Party and Progressive Conservative incumbent John Yakabuski – sparred over the issues regarding job creation and hydro. The all-candidates event took place June 4 at Opeongo High School. Murray Reid of the Confederation of Regions surprised the audience by saying he opposed four-laning of Highway 17, but he also got the biggest laugh when he said expanding the highway would only allow businesses already in the county to leave faster. Green Party candidate Ben Wright admitted he was totally green when it came to participating in all-candidates forums. But the 26-year-old calmly provided answers to written questions from the audience and the hosting Renfrew County chapters of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation and the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario. Wright’s most controversial statements, which met with no discernibly negative response from the crowd of about 100 people, concerned the Green Party’s plans to amalgamate the Catholic and public school boards. There’s no need to have Catholic schools, while eliminating them would create huge financial savings, he said. Initial Catholic board funding was a brainchild of former RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke Liberal MPP Sean Conway, who retired from politics in 2003. Independent candidate Chad Beckwith-Smith was a no-show again. The next day he announced that he wouldn’t make any more public appearances during the campaign, suggesting he was being stalked by the OPP and that he feared for his safety. The Combermere-area resident’s major issue is the elimination of abortions, a topic that wasn’t discussed during the all-candidates forum emceed by local OSSTF president Jeff Barber. Public-sector job cuts, changes to education staffing, and how to reduce hydro bills and costs generated the most discussion, as Yakabuski, Dougherty and Boileau exchanged several political jabs. Dougherty said it was time a government made sense in Ontario. Boileau spoke about being attracted to Premier Kathleen Wynne’s platform because she stands for jobs, infrastructure, health care and an Ontario pension plan. Alluding to the PCs, the Liberal candidate also stressed that voters can support a party that is about building up Ontario or one that wants to tear it down.
Yakabuski was quick to respond. “Rod’s right about one thing: this is a watershed election,” said the MPP. “This is a very, very important election.” Citing such issues as the high cost of hydro and regulatory burdens, Yakabuski said, “Do you want to continue … down the road of Armageddon, with ever-increasing deficits, debt that is greater than all other provinces combined. You’ve got to find a way to stop the carnage. You’ve got to find a way to control government spending.” Dougherty said the NDP is the only Ontario party with a plan to lower hydro rates over the long term, in addition to doing what the other parties plan to do, by dropping debt retirement charges and HST (following negotiation with the federal government) from hydro bills. The NDP and Liberal candidates said their parties had no plans to cut class sizes, while Yakabuski said changes are necessary. There are 225,000 fewer students in school than in 2003 while education spending has risen by $8.4 billion, said Yakabuski. Education, he said, “can’t be exempted from an effort to turn this province around and get the books in order. There will be changes. It will be part of what we have made clear, that we’re going to reduce the public service in Ontario back to the numbers where they were in 2009.” Dougherty, on the other hand, said the NDP is committed to hiring 1,000

Community - Are you interested in history or homes or gardens? Do you want to spend an interesting afternoon roaming the countryside? Then do not miss the second annual Burnstown Heritage House and Garden Tour on Saturday, June 28 from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. There are seven locations in and around Burnstown to visit: four gardens, three heritage homes, a school, church, radio station and labyrinth. Included in the $25 price is a strawberry social at the Burnstown United Church. Your passport provides a map and a short description of each location. The order of viewing is up to you – start and finish anywhere along the route. There are two locations in Burnstown besides the church. One is the 1889 oneroom school house. Today it is the Neat, with its Café and Roast House. Lately, it has become known for its unique concert venue. There is even a concert scheduled for the evening of the tour (Valley band Claytones with Red Moon Road) at 8 p.m. if you wish to purchase tickets (www.neatfood.com). The tour includes the garden and perhaps you will also see some on the Neat Café’s free-trade coffee being roasted. The second location is one of the village’s oldest buildings. It was built around 1850 as the home of businessman, George Rochester. He was the owner of the Rochester Mill and other businesses in Burnstown. The building was later used as a cheese factory before reverting to a home. Today it is the location of Prime Valley Realty and a gift shop, Rustic Remnants. The tour includes the basement to show the timbers and floor boards. While there, listen to tales of rescues and drownings on the Madawaska. Heading towards White Lake, next are the gardens of Mary and Peter Stanton. They were planted in 2011, after fire destroyed their heritage house. The vision was to use the salvaged perennials and incorporate new and unusual plants. Goals were four-season interest, visual impact and an established look in year three. The rear garden layout is reminiscent of a formal French country courtyard. The front garden is more informal and relaxed. Back by popular demand is the nearby farm of Joan and Ross Headrick. You can

The Headricks’ Cob oven, made of straw, clay and sand, is one of the highlights. visit a log cabin from the early 1800s, lovingly furnished to that time period. Check out the handmade quilt and interesting gadgets from pioneer times. The tour also includes the 1860s current home, gardens, and Lucifer, a Cob Oven created out of straw, sand and clay. Joan will be there in period costume and perhaps preparing something in Lucifer. Heading towards Glasgow is another exceptional garden by artists Valerie Roos Webster and John Webster. The garden is 20 years old. With sandy, dry soil, it was originally designed in a hot, dry ‘Mediterranean’ style. Now the garden is transitioning into a partial shade garden, featuring hostas, daylilies and perennials. There is also a small goldfish pond. While there, enjoy the owners’ artistic works. Valerie’s botanical paintings are often of the plants in the garden. John’s work is mainly architectural, but he also enjoys painting small acrylics of their garden. Valley Heritage Radio Station is also included in the tour. Although not a heritage building, this community owned/operated radio station strives to protect our musical
and cultural heritage. The station uses turntables and tape decks, as well as modern equipment. The actual building was once the Jack Russell Drive-In Theatre. There may be a live band on stage when you visit. Included in the price is a strawberry social at the church. Take in the silent auction while there. If you have time, walk the 11circuit labyrinth behind Bittersweet Gallery on Leckie Lane. The tour is part of McNab Days and goes rain or shine. There are a limited number of tickets. Sorry, but children under 12 and pets are not allowed. Proceeds go to Burnstown United Church. The $25 tickets can be picked up at the Neat Café in Burnstown, Valley Heritage Radio, Aikenhead’s Drug Store in Renfrew, Antrim Truck Stop in Arnprior, Pakenham General Store, Hello Yellow in Almonte or The Running Stitch in Kanata. Tickets can also be emailed or mailed to you. Please contact Irene at irener@renfrew.net or 613-432-6987. For further info, you can also phone 613-433-3389 or search for ‘Burnstown’ in Facebook.

Sports – Arnprior’s own Paralympian gave the third annual Candlelighters Charity Mixed Lob Ball Tournament a big boost last weekend. Paralympic snowboarder John Leslie attended the official opening of the two-day tournament Saturday morning at the Arnprior ball diamonds. He gave an address outlining his Paralympic journey and praising the community for its support. “It was a great time,” he said of his experience, placing seventh in the Games and the top Canadian in his event. “I owe everything that I have to my friends and my family,” Leslie also hit the opening pitch in a home-run competition. The tournament began Friday evening and closed with a dance Saturday night at the Nick Smith Centre where both Leslie and Paige Dillabough addressed the gathering. Candlelighters was established in 1988 as part of a network of local and parent support groups. It is a notfor-profit volunteer organization that provides programs and services for young cancer patients being treated in eastern Ontario and to those they depend on for strength and support.

Flashing lights, big equipment and smiling faces Organizers call Association of Ontario Road Supervisors municipal public works trade show a resounding success Staff
News - Showcasing 187 exhibits and displays of public works-related products and technologies, the 2014 Association of Ontario Road Supervisors Municipal Public Works Trade Show saw nearly 2,000 people attend the two-day show in Arnprior. Designed to promote innovation and showcase modern technology, the show provided an opportunity for municipal staff and visitors to speak directly with the products’ representatives, explore operational machinery, meet one-on-one with potential suppliers, and network with other municipal staff from all over the province. The Renfrew County Road Supervisors Association, in partnership with the Town of Arnprior, the County of Renfrew and the Association of Ontario Roads Supervisors (AORS) hosted the show June 4-5 at the Nick Smith Centre and Arnprior Fairgrounds. The show attracted public works staff and suppliers from as far as the Eastern U.S. “Walking around the show this morning, I met with a great number of people from across the province as well as from Renfrew County. It was great to see so many people engaged in conversation and the vast amount of advanced technology that was on display,” said County of Renfrew Warden Peter Emon, who brought greetings to the attendees during the opening ceremonies. “It was a great opportunity to see the equipment up close and speak to the experts, which leads to better and more informed decisions as an elected official. This trade show is a

I hope that some of our visitors will take the opportunity to come back and spend some additional time in the county.”

Switching churches was a serious topic for Audrey Lifestyle - “Being Lutheran is no fun,” Audrey said for the umpteenth time that morning. Mother let out a loud sigh, and I knew what was coming next, because my sister on the rare occasions
she even bothered to discuss with me anything the least bit serious, had talked about this very thing. “Why can’t we have more Sunday picnics like the Uniteds? Beatrice said there are at least two more

picnics this summer, and we Lutherans have yet to have even one!” Audrey was wiping the oilcloth on the kitchen table, and she was rubbing so hard I thought she was going to rub out the checked red and white pattern! And then she took the argument even further by suggesting she saw no reason why she couldn’t go to the United Church and the rest of the family stay Lutheran. Well, that tore it! Mother sat Audrey down at one end of the table, just by pointing her finger to the nearest chair, and she sat at the other end. There was nothing I liked better than a good heated discussion, and I knew I was about to witness a dandy. Nothing bothered Mother more than to have one of us argue about going to church. Even though we came from what Aunt Lizzie called a ‘ divided household’, to Mother going to the Lutheran church every Sunday was just as important as doing the washing on Mondays and having our weekly bath on Saturday night! There were no questions asked as far as going to church was concerned, and only a calamity of the highest order would keep us away. Mother told Audrey you didn’t go to church to have fun. You were there to learn about
MARY COOK Memories the bible, and listen to a good message. I thought it was a good time to bring up the subject of our divided household, since we were talking church and all. I had no idea what it meant when Aunt Lizzie had come from Regina one time and as well as declaring Mother as ‘not being of the best farm material she had ever seen’, she also said Mother created what was called a ‘divided household’ for her brother, my father. So I dared to ask, what was a divided household? Mother ignored my question, but my sister Audrey jumped right in and said, ‘it means Father is a Lutheran, and Mother is a Catholic’. Well, that was all news to me! The nearest Catholic church was in Renfrew and not once did we ever go to a church service in the Catholic church in Renfrew. How could Mother be a Catholic and not go to church every Sunday? Now, she did have a Rosary, and she wouldn’t eat meat on Fridays, and on occasion I did see her cross herself, but that’s as far as it went. Why, we often sang on the
street corner with the Salvation Army band in Renfrew ... did that make us Salvation Army members? Anyway, as far as Mother was concerned the discussion was over, and Audrey and I headed for the swing in the grape arbour. I told Audrey I didn’t want to go to one church and have her go to another. I told her about the time she was asked to sing a hymn and how I tingled from my head to my toes with pride ... and how everyone said she sang like a bird ... and I just knew she would be asked to sing again some day. And whose shoulder could I lean against when I nodded off during the sermon? Certainly not my brother Emerson’s. I couldn’t tell by looking at Audrey sitting across from me in the swing if I had been able to convince her to stay a Lutheran. I had to think of something that would leave no doubt in her mind that going to the United Church just wasn’t a good idea. And then it hit me. Right out of the blue! “I hear Shirley’s brother from the Barr Line is going to join the Lutheran Church ... remember how he chose your cake at the cake auction at our church ... cost him a whole quarter too. He sure had the sweets on you.” I had no idea in the world whether or not Shirley’s brother
had any intention of joining the Lutheran church, but this issue called for drastic measures, and if that meant telling a little white lie, so be it! Audrey got a dreamy look in her eyes, which was a very good sign. I thought I would seal the deal by adding a bit more to the story. “Shirley said he is now old enough to drive the car too. Loves to go into Renfrew to the picture shows.” I had my fingers crossed behind my back, which was supposed to get rid of the sin of telling a lie. I sure hoped it worked, because I had no idea if Shirley’s family even owned a car ... they came to church in a horse and buggy. Well, that did the trick. Audrey put her head back in the swing, and pushed the boards gently with her feet, and the swing squeaked back and forth in a steady rhythm. I knew she was thinking of trips into Renfrew to the picture show, and Shirley’s brother sitting in a pew in the Lutheran Church. Joining the United Church was never mentioned again.

Public Auction Saturday, June 21, 2014 @ 9:00 a.m. More than 300 vehicles presented Primary list and directions at : www.rideauauctions.com List at www.icangroup.ca Heavy trucks, (300) light vehicles, trailers; boats etc.
Events – At 10 a.m. on this Saturday, June 14, doors will open promptly at MacLean and Associates Central Warehouse on Laperriere Avenue in Ottawa welcoming visitors to their first Antiques Appraisal Day. Known in the region as one of Ottawa’s premiere Auction Houses, Maclean is teaming up with the Olde Forge Community Resource Centre by hosting this unique fundraising event. Tickets are available at the Olde Forge (613-829-9777) or at the door. Diana Fuller, president and owner of MacLean & Associates, has an outstanding track record both professionally and in the area of community support. Upon hearing that the Olde Forge was looking for new fundraising opportunities, she generously opened her doors and expertise and Ottawa’s version of the Antiques Road Show was born. “I see a lot of seniors who have no idea of what their possessions may be worth,” said Fuller. “When it comes to downsizing the tendency is to donate or even discard items that could have a real dollar value. “Let’s face it, as we get older the need is to make every dollar count.” Among the group of appraisers who will be on hand on June 14 will be Arnprior area’s Janet Carlile, an independent, accredited antiques valuer and appraiser with more that 30 years of experience appraising, inventorying and advising on fine art and antiques for private, corporate and institutional clients in North America and Europe. A long-time resident of Braeside who acts in an advisory and management capacity at the Arnprior Museum, Carlile (who has been retained by Canada’s top museums including the Canadian Museum of Civilization as well as such public institutions as the Department of Canadian Heritage,

Rideau Auctions Inc. Corner of Hwys 43 & 31 Winchester, ON (613) 774-7000 38 Arnprior Chronicle-Guide EMC - Thursday, June 12, 2014
Rideau Hall, the House of Commons) is well known as an author, university lecturer, television personality and public speaker. Carlile, whose appraisal services command a significant fee, is enthusiastic about donating her services for the day and is looking forward to “seeing what treasures may surface.” She admits to certain sadness when she reviews the lack of general interest in antiquities. “We’re into a ‘if it doesn’t go into the dishwasher I’m simply not interested’ mentality,” she comments. “I see wonderful things, things which recall this country’s history, and they’re being sold for knockdown prices. There appears to be very little appreciation out there – unlike, sadly, in the States where a very high value is put on antiques which really are reminders of our heritage.” It’s hoped that the June 14 ‘Antiques Appraisal Day’ will raise funds to help The Olde Forge continue its ambitious recreation program. The aim of the program, which was originally funded by a three-year Trillium Grant, is to help seniors stay active, healthy and involved at every level; physical, emotional, cultural and spiritual. Sadly, Trillium’s threeyear commitment ends this April and alternate financial support is desperately needed. Currently serving close to 400 clients, the recreation program offers activities such as classes in balance, Zumba, resistance and flexibility; day trips, and artistic, cultural and social events. The program has proved enormously successful in helping seniors maintain a high quality of life. “To keep this program viable, we require an infusion of $60,000 annually,” says a spokesperson for the Olde Forge. “This is not much when you consider what it saves in terms of today’s accelerating health costs.”

HOSPICE RENFREW /SUBMITTED
Bridge players help residential hospice Community – The success of the Arnprior Duplicate Bridge Club’s fifth annual tournament recently has paid dividends for Renfrew Hospice. Some of the proceeds of the two-day event at the Arnprior Golf Club were donated to the residential hospice that serves Arnprior and area as well as
Renfrew and points north. With its wide service area, it was a natural beneficiary for the bridge players, who came from all over Eastern Ontario. As well, than 240 businesses in Arnprior, Renfrew, Almonte, and Pakenham, as well as a number of Ottawa companies and the-
atres supported the tournament. The Arnprior Duplicate Bridge Club has always given back to the community through support to many local organizations. The $500 donation to Hospice Renfrew marked the second year in a row the club has made such a donation.

EDUCATION
Cupcake Coffee House raises money for ADHS prom Arts – Arnprior District High School transformed its regular ‘Coffee House’ into a ‘Cupcake Coffee House’ May 28 to raise funds for the Grade 12 prom. Talented performers from all grades came out to entertain the crowd, which filled up the entire library at the school. ALUMNI
Several ADHS alumni performed, including Jamie Bentz, a graduate of the school who is on the verge of becoming a breakthrough artist. As well, many current students entertained, including newcomers and experienced musical veterans, who took to the stage to perform covers and originals. Students baked and sold tantalizing cupcakes with the proceeds going to the prom, raising a whopping $142. The spirit, dedication, and talent of ADHS students shone through in this successful endeavour, report organizers. It was noted that Bentz is currently pursuing a music career and will be releasing her own album soon. More information about her TRALEENA ROULEAU/SUBMITTED and her music can be found online at http://www.jamieanne- ADHS grad Jamie Bentz, who will be releasing an album soon, returned to the school to perform at the Cupcake Coffee House. bentz.com.

Camp Day fun in Arnprior

The White Lake Road Tim Hortons in Arnprior was abuzz with activity June 4 for Camp Day, during which restaurant owners donate all proceeds from coffee sales, as well as other fundraising activities, to the Tim Hortons Children’s Foundation (THCF). All funds raised go directly to sending kids on an inspiring and unforgettable camp adventure. Above, from left, Pat Gurevitch, Christine Thomlison, Patsy Boudreau and Crystal Lapierre are ready to help drive-thru customers win big at the campfire marshmallow game. At left, Rev. Leo Hughes shows off the teddy bear he won with the help of Alicia Quan. Hughes later donated the bear to TD Bank’s CHEO campaign, where it raised $100. Last year, a record $11.8 million was raised in Canada and the United States during camp day to help send more than 17,000 kids to camp.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING

COMMUNITY
STAY SAFE THIS SUMMER It’s official – summer is in full swing. And while some might assume that the return of warm weather simply means more barbecues, bike rides, and beaches, it’s important to remember the safety precautions that go along with all those fun summer activities.
HOME ALONE
Jen Henriquez, from left, Ann Bassenden and Amanda Loyer work the bake sale inside at the White Lake Road Tim Hortons.
The Child and Family Services Act does not identify an age when a child can be left alone, or an age at which a child can supervise or babysit other children. The Act recognizes that age alone is not a sufficient safeguard for the supervision of children. A person who has charge of a child less than 16 years of age cannot leave the child without making provision for his/her care or supervision that is reasonable under the circumstances.
WATER SAFETY
Keeping it cool at Camp Day The Arnprior Fire Department offers up car washes at Tim Hortons A lucky drive-thru customer wins a t-shirt from Tim Camp Day June 4. From left are Trisha Maloney, Rick Desarmia and Cory Hortons employee Christine Thomlison. Nicholas. Mackay Manor’s building has been foundational for 100 years. It has always been a house, but in the late nineteen seventies, it became a “home,” for people who desired to seek out recovery as a way of life. Over the years the house, as well as the lives of its residents have changed, but the foundation of Mackay Manor has stayed the same. Hope, Healing and a Home for all those who enter.
There is nothing quite as refreshing as a dip in the pool – or lake – on a scorching hot day. However, there are heightened safety precautions to take when it comes to children around any body of water. Always keep children within arms’ reach, in and around the water. Make sure they wear lifejackets or person flotation devices in and around the water. Most importantly, never leave a child alone, whether it’s in a swimming pool, lake, river, or bathtub. Speaking of tubs, children under the age of five should never use a hot tub – not even with an adult. Hot tubs are far too hot for young children, may contain large amounts of bacteria, and the drain in the hot tub can be a hazard to small kids.
CAR SAFETY Did you know that your car’s interior temperature can reach as high as 93 degrees Celsius in as little as 10 minutes? It comes as no surprise, then, that you should never leave a child – or pet – in your car, even with the windows partly rolled down. Children are especially at risk for heat exhaustion and heat stroke because their bodies cannot regulate temperature as well as an adult’s.

gratulated the cadets for training well, working hard and making it a fun and interesting year. Arnprior Mayor Dave Reid said the army cadets are visible in the community and set a fine example for other local youth, while army cadet league representative Patrick Simmonds had some of the strongest words of praise for the cadets, during the 45-minute ceremony at Nick Smith Centre. He said the youngsters surpassed themselves in every field and activity, including putting in more than 500 volunteer hours and raising at least $5,000 in Poppy campaign funds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You really have a chance to enjoy yourself for a couple of months before coming back in September with the same spirit that you have gone out with,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am proud to be part of this (corps).â&#x20AC;? Following inspection of the corps by Mayor Reid and other members of the reviewing party, and the march-past, several awards were presented. Notable among them were the Strathcona Medal to Master Warrant Officer (MWO) Cody Carson, 15,
STEVE NEWMAN/METROLAND

Carson, who attends Grade 11 at Renfrew Collegiate Institute, said the cadet movement is part of his learning path as he de-

SUPPLIES NEEDED THIS WEEK: WHiskas meaty selections dry cat food, non clumping cat litter, paper towels, lysol wipes
Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; There are several ways your pets may affect home sales. Safety: Sellers with dogs should be aware that even a friendly dog could become very protective when stranger enter their home. Dogs will protect their property if they feel it is being threatened. Pets distract buyers: Some pets crave attention and not all individuals like that. Having your pet jumping up and down in front of a potential buyer to play is distracting, and not all buyers will share your love of animals. Dander: Be aware of allergy-causing dander by vacuuming your home from top to bottom, especially the carpets, to remove all traces of hair and dust. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to remove the litter box, which can also be a trigger. Consider having a professional carpet cleaning company clean your carpets and have your ducts blown as well. Surprise showings: Avoid
them by insisting that the realtor gives you at least two hours advance notice before a showing your home so you have time to get out of the house and take the pets with you! Locked up pets are unhappy and noisy pets: Many sellers will make the mistake of thinking that they can simply lock their dogs and cats in a bedroom, bathroom, basement or garage during a showing. First, this restricts access for potential buyers who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the room that the pet is locked in. Second, confined, unhappy pets will make noise distracting buyers. Most importantly, if the buyer or the realtors decide to take a peek in the off-limits room, your pet could end up running through the house. Exotic animals: Such as lizards, snakes, geckos, spiders, and other exotics. For some buyers, these types of critters are creepy and may frighten away a potential buyer. The dangers of losing your pet: A front, side, back door and garage door constantly being opened and closed is a
perfect escape for your pet. Removing your pets from the home during showings would be ideal. If not, perhaps a neighbour could look after them for the day or consider bringing them to a kennel/daycare. And please do not take them for car rides. Inevitably they get left, especially in the summer months, in a hot vehicle while you shop, which could lead to dehydration or worse death. If you must leave them at home, place them in a locked kennel in a quiet part of the home with plenty of toys and leave a light on as well as a radio or television. Remember, the trick is, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ok for buyers to know you have pets. However, buyers should not have to see them, hear them or worse, smell them.

Government to fund service dogs pilot project News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant rose in the House of Commons recently to inquire into the federal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s support for a project she has long been a proponent of inside and outside of Parliament the use of service dogs to help Canadian Forces veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). â&#x20AC;&#x153;For a number of years, I have been hearing from veterans across the country that the government needs to support the use of service dogs to help with the effects of PTSD,â&#x20AC;? said Gallant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many countries, including the United States, understand what a significant contribution these animals make to the veterans physical and mental well-being, a point which I have raised on the National Defence committee several times
in the past.â&#x20AC;? Gallant has been an advocate for the use of service dogs since 2010, when she teamed up with Ottawa service animal advocate, Terrence Green. Veterans and service dog organizations have urged the government to allow the use of psychiatric service dogs to assist veterans with PTSD. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The dogs are rescued from shelters and First Nations communities and then trained by volunteers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So, when a team is trained, it is two lives that have been saved,â&#x20AC;? noted Gallant. In reply to Gallantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s question, the Minister of Veterans Affairs announced the government will be supporting a $500,000 pilot project that will provide service dogs for up to 50 veterans suffering from PTSD.

Mozzie’s life was a Cinderella story that both broke our hearts and filled them with inspiration and joy. Coming from 13 years of suffering, Mozzie’s last 8 months have been filled with all the joy and pleasures any dog could hope for – he was loved, pampered and given all the happy experiences that time would allow. Mozzie was a charming soul with a happy, friendly nature and a perpetually wagging tail. He was always ready to share his happiness and a few cuddles with anyone and everyone he met. Mozzie’s all-time favourite treat was timbits and his family and many friends made sure there was always a never ending supply. His truly wonderful foster, and then adoptive family, Becky and Bryden, gave our sweet old gentleman the best life possible and we are all very grateful to them. When it was clear that his cancer had spread and his time was short, Mozzie’s family created a Bucket List of all the experiences they felt a dog should have before they leave this world. His Bucket List included things like camping in the backyard, a day at the beach, a steak dinner, a ride in a boat and other such doggie delights. They worked their way through as many of these experiences as they could in the time he had left. We sincerely wish such a loving family as this, for every homeless, abused and neglected animal out there. A very sad day for Valley Animal Rescue and for all those whose lives Mozzie has touched. Mozzie, it was a true privilege to have had a hand in giving you a new life. You have been an inspiration and an absolute delight to a great many people and you leave this world much better than you found it. God speed Mozzie and Safe Journey. Valerie Hutchinson President, Valley Animal Rescue.

If your house burns down, learn from it says Dragon Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com
News - Dozens of Ottawa entrepreneurs gathered to hear life lessons from a woman who has been through fire and back. Either through her work on the popular television show Dragon’s Den as one of five venture capitalists who inter-
view entrepreneurs seeking funding, or in her personal life leading up to financial success, Arlene Dickinson had plenty of advice to share with Ottawa-area business owners, making a point not to focus on success. Dickinson spoke to a full room at the Brookstreet Hotel on June 9 for a breakfast series hosted by Metroland Media as
part of Entrepreneur Week, which runs from June 2-13. Dickinson and Farm Boy CEO Jeff York made presentations to entrepreneurs and business owners, with York starting off with a bit of reflection. “The first thing you have to do is you have to buy a mirror,” said York about beginning your own business.

The comment elicited a chuckle from the crowd, but York went on to explain one of the most important ingredients in a successful business is a good team, and to put together a good team, you have to know what you already have. Returning to the mirror metaphor, York said, “Whatever is looking back at you, that’s what is going to be your problem in life.” York encouraged entrepreneurs to find complementary personalities to their own, and not make a team out of people like them. Rather, look for hunters and farmers, he said: those that will go for the kill, and those that will tend to the flock. Dickinson’s speech touched on leadership as well, and not just knowing that mistakes will happen, but learning from them and sharing lessons learned. Dickinson’s strongest example of that idea came from her father, she said, and no more so than on one particular day when Dickinson’s sister was cooking. As she was returning home one day, Dickinson saw a fire truck near her house. As she approached, she saw it was indeed parked in front of her home, where her dad was speaking to children on their front yard, and her older sister was crying. Asking a firefighter what had happened, he explained that Dickinson’s sister had been cooking chicken and left the oil on, which had caught fire and burned much of the top floor. No one was hurt, he said. But, when she asked what her dad was up to, the firefighter explained that her father had asked permission from the school across the road to bring some students over to show them what can

While the scene was comical, Dickinson said her father taught her how important it is to take a moment to learn, she said. “It’s so critical that we do that,” especially as entrepreneurs tend to charge ahead, said Dickinson. After touching on personal anecdotes of failure, near failure and living with little to go on, Dickinson finished her speech by sharing one last story as an example of what a leader should tell those they lead. In this case, it was General Walter Natynczyk speaking to his soldiers on the front lines. Dickinson joined a group of rock stars and former NHL hockey players to meet with Canadian troops in Kandahar, Afghanistan, and was asked to speak with soldiers on the front lines. While there, she heard Natynczyk give his speech to the troops. “‘I’m the general, I’m your leader, I’m fighting with you,’” said Natynczyk. Natynczyk conceded that he did not know what would
happen, and could not, but that he would make sure they knew when he did, said Dickinson. He said that other armed forces members wish they were serving at the front lines, but that those here were specially selected because of their skill set. Those who are going home soon must not think about that, but focus on their duty until they are done, he continued. He reiterated that the work they were doing had to be done, and that every Canadian thanked them for it. That is what people want to know at the beginning of their day, said Dickinson: that their leader is with them, that they are needed, that they were chosen because they know what they are doing, and that what they are doing matters. Ending off with her own call to arms, Dickinson encouraged those in the room to start the business they have been dreaming of and try to make it work. “There is only one thing stopping you in this country, and that’s yourself,” she said. “Go set the world on fire.”

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 One of the biggest day-to-day challenges I face as your Federal Member of Parliament is the fight against those individuals who want to take away jobs from three of Renfrew County’s largest employers; AECL, forestry and our Military. In the past, Canada traditionally had two centrist parties, Conservatives and Liberals, and a variety of fringe, special interest groups. With the rise of the left-wing (interventionist, big government, high taxes) NDP, and the decision of the liberal party to shift left to meet that threat, the Canadian consensus on issues like reliable power, developing our resource heritage and a credible defence has broken down.

Annual General Meeting LUCY HASS/METROLAND
Raising awareness for ovarian cancer National director of philanthropy for Ovarian Cancer Canada (OCC) Denyse Campeau is joined by Richard Gill, at left, at Cheryl Babineau who hosted a special fundraiser and promotion Saturday to encourage participation in the Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope, Walk for Her, Sept. 7 from 9 a.m. to noon at the labyrinth at Bittersweet Gallery in Burnstown. This year marks the 13th annual walk and events will be held at 40 locations across the country. At right, a portion of sales from Look of Luv jewelry sold Saturday was also donated to the cause. Campeau is looking for volunteers and walkers for this year’s event, which she hopes will double last year’s total to generate $16,000. The national goal is $2.6 million, Campeau encourages teams, as well as individuals, to plan now to participate in the walk, rain or shine. Each year 2,600 women in Canada are newly diagnosed and every year 1,750 women die from ovarian cancer. Statistics ay late detection results in five-year survival rates of less than 30 per cent. There is no effective screening test for ovarian cancer. Visit ovariancancerwalkofhope.ca for more information or call 1-877-413-7970.

During a recent debate on AECL, as I defended the almost 3,000 direct local jobs at stake, the Opposition NDP and 3rd party Liberals responded with mis-informed comments based on events that happened decades ago in other countries with no relevance to Canada’s nuclear industry. The same thing happens with Canada’s renewable forest industry. The latest fad is “greenwashing,” the practice where people are told to do something to help the environment, when in actual fact it’s a money scam. An example of this is the trend of some companies to charge a “fee” for paper bills. That fee is all about additional profits. Ontario employs some of the best forest management practices. We are the envy of the world. We plan, we harvest and we renew as well or better than the vast majority of any other jurisdiction. Harvesting keeps our forest healthy. Ontario’s forests are protected from fire. Harvesting is the only effective means to renew the boreal forest outside a fire based renewal cycle. Boreal forest trees species have finite life spans. If we protect our boreal forests from fire we must harvest them or be prepared to have them age, die, rot, release carbon and cease to support all wildlife which depends on uneven forest composition to remain viable. As a 14-year veteran of the Standing Committee on National Defence, I have had a long-standing interest in the care and the well-being of the women and men who serve Canada in uniform. I have watched in disgust every time our soldiers and veterans have been made into political footballs and kicked around by the opposition. The worst example for our women and men in uniform was the decision by the Liberal Party to use military procurement for partisan purposes and send our soldiers into Afghanistan without the proper equipment. The cancellation of the EH101 military helicopter contract for partisan political reasons cost the precious lives of Canadian soldiers. It is a fact that once our Conservative government provided the strategic lift for our soldiers to get them off the ground and away from the improvised explosive devices (IEDs) that lined the roads of Afghanistan, the casualty rate dropped. The current official opposition, regardless of what it says, does not believe that Canada should have a properly equipped military. Every time the Leader of the Opposition invokes the name of our soldiers and veterans, the purpose is to embarrass the government. As proof, they have voted against every measure that increased funding to our military. I did not choose to be your Member of Parliament to sit on my hands and say nothing. And, from time to time saying unpopular things might make me unpopular with the left-wing crowd. Rest assured that I will continue to stand up for the hard-working people at AECL, serving or have served their country in Canada’s military or are employed in the working forest! As your Federal Member of Parliament, I am pleased to represent you on a variety of issues. Whether that issue is promoting agriculture, international trade, Canadian Unity, 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.
