‘ORAL IMMUNOTHERAPY’ SAFE FOR PRESCHOOLERS: RESEARCH Derek Dunn/Torstar Town of Arnprior staff member Gordon Gillespie prepares to raise the Pride flag at Arnprior Town Hall as the crowd looks on.

'RIVER OF RAINBOWS' SEES PRIDE FLAG IN ARNPRIOR DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@metroland.com More than 100 people turned out - many waving rainbow flags - to witness the Pride flag raised at Arnprior town hall June 7.

With Pride Week festivities ramping up during the week of June 7 to 14, Mayor Walter Stack read from an official proclamation moments before the flag was hoisted alongside those of Canada and Ontario.

"Arnprior strives to be a safe, welcoming and inclusive community for all," the proclamation reads in part. "(C)onsider what steps we can take to make our community a safe and inclusive place for all, regardless of

sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression."

Spearheading the flag raising locally was Sophie Smith-Dore, who shared her hopes for what See PRIDE, page 2

PRIDE FLAG A SYMBOL OF HOPE Continued from page 1

Derek Dunn/Torstar More than 100 people came out to witness the Pride flag raised for the first time at town hall in Arnprior.

the symbol can do to lessen the fears she has for her son who recently came out as gay. The bisexual mother said she loved her children no matter who or what they are.

"Today, we are here on this historic day in this conservative community receiving the validation and recognition our marginalized community members deserve," she said, reading from a pre-

pared statement. "A gesture that is invaluable to hundreds, if not thousands of members of this very community."

Smith-Dore also read a letter that appeared in the Arnprior ChronicleGuide that sparked the movement that saw the flag raising covered by several media outlets from Ottawa.

Jill Holroyd with Pflag Renfrew County shared some of the story of her transgender child, then

spoke of the dangers members of the LGBTQ community face.

"Raising the flag is one small but mighty step we can take as a caring community," Holroyd said, also reading from a prepared statement. "The flag is truly a symbol of hope.

"Visibility matters. Visibility saves lives."

Coun. Lisa McGee also shared a few words. Other council members on hand were Dan Lynch, Lynn Grinstead, and Chris Toner.

Several communities along the Ottawa River raised Pride flags on June 7, including McNab/Braeside and Renfrew, inspiring Pflag to call it River of Rainbows.

FORD'S ECONOMIC STRATEGY SACRIFICES TEACHING JOBS DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@ metroland.com Rural economies are currently driven in large part by the public sector jobs they maintain. Police officers, hospital workers, and teachers are high paying jobs that spread money throughout a community, from the car dealership to the home renovator.

Some of those jobs are likely to disappear under Premier Doug Ford's economic strategy, which sees government play a lesser role. The PCs are clearing space - through tax cuts, a reduction in regulations, and other measures - for private sector to move in.

That change in strategy prompted a 150-person protest in front of PC MPP John Yakabuski's constituency office in Pembroke on June 7. The public-school system will see 23 jobs lost in the

THE ISSUE: RURAL ECONOMIES ARE CURRENTLY DRIVEN IN LARGE PART BY THE PUBLIC SECTOR JOBS THEY MAINTAIN LOCAL IMPACT: TEACHER JOB LOSSES ARE COMING TO RENFREW COUNTY AND THE LARGER ECONOMY MAY BE AFFECTED county next year.

"It was probably one of the largest ever (in the county)," said Jeff Barber, district union president of Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation. "Peo-

Aubrey Fletcher photo Public board teachers protest at MPP John Yakabuski's constituency office in Pembroke. They are asking how the potential loss of 23 teaching jobs, along with the likelihood of other public sector jobs, is good for the economy. ple are upset with what this government is planning to do to education and other services."

Barber's first concern is the impact on students when classrooms go from 22 to 28, eventually resulting in the loss of 240 course op-

tions and 30 to 40 teachers.

Similar figures will apply to other boards. But he also worries about impacts to the wider economy. He knows of a teacher whose spouse is a well-known business owner. They might move because their child

won't get the course options available in larger centres.

The business and its jobs would go too.

"This government talks about being open for business but is taking money out of things that would encourage companies to come here," Barber said.

However, Ontario is wrestling with a $11.7 billion deficit. Interest payments alone represent 8 per cent of the province's revenue, making it the fourth-largest spending area. Spending cuts are one way to tackle the deficit, but according to conservative economists so are tax cuts to the wealthy.

Trickle-down economics, introduced by Thatcher and Regan in the early 1980s, says more money in the hands of the job-creating rich will eventually filter down to the middle class.

The Ford government quickly cut taxes to the rich when it gained power.

So which is better: laissez faire capitalism or economic socialism? The county's economic development branch passed the question off to chief administrative officer Paul Moreau. The county's top bureaucrat said elected officials have been given information on the impacts of Queen's Park's new strategy. What they do with it is up to them.

"I'm in no position to comment on policy. As an administrator I can only provide the options: increase property taxes or service cuts," Moreau said, on June 10. "Council will be discussing that very topic at Wednesday's meeting."

NOTICE OF RESCHEDULED SECOND AND LAST OPEN HOUSE FOR THE PROPOSED UNDERTAKING UNDER THE ONTARIO WATERPOWER ASSOCIATION CLASS EA FOR WATERPOWER PROJECTS: CALABOGIE GENERATING STATION REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT Ontario Power Generation (OPG) is proposing to redevelop the existing Calabogie Generating Station (GS). This proposed undertaking will involve an Environmental Assessment (EA) under the Ontario Waterpower Association (OWA) Class EA for Waterpower Projects as a Project Associated with Existing Infrastructure. Constructed in 1917, the existing station has an installed capacity of 5 megawatts (MW) and is now at its end of life stage. OPG intends to redevelop the site and increase the station’s capacity to approximately 10 to 15 MW. The Proposed Undertaking is on the Madawaska River within the village of Calabogie, in the Township of Greater Madawaska, Ontario, as detailed on the map below. OPG does not plan to alter the approved water levels and flows as described in the Madawaska River Water Management Plan (WMP). As such, the anticipated zone of impact for the project is limited to the immediate area around the station (see shaded/hatched area on the map). A minor amendment to the WMP is anticipated under the Lakes and Rivers Improvement Act. This notice and public consultation process for the project under the Class EA is intended to coordinate and meet the notification requirements relevant to the planning stage of the project under both the Environmental Assessment Act and Lakes and Rivers Improvement Act statutes.

The Class EA process requires OPG to undertake an evaluation of the project to evaluate its potential effects to the environment (positive and negative) and prepare a detailed Environmental Report. The evaluation and resulting environmental report will assess the potential effects of the proposed waterpower project on the environment during both construction and operation.

OPG has identified certain environmental components that it expects to be the focus of the proposed project and will present findings about the proposed project, environmental effects and proposed mitigation and monitoring measures. Consultation with Indigenous communities and the public is an integral component of this process and allows interested parties to provide comments on the project. You are invited to provide comments on the issues to be addressed.

For information on the project proposal, to raise any issues or concerns, or to be placed on the project’s mailing list, please contact one of the individuals identified below. If the project proceeds as scheduled, construction could commence in 2020.

The second open house has been rescheduled as follows: Monday, June 17, 2019, 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Calabogie Community Hall, 574 Mill Street, Calabogie, Ontario, K0J 1H0 The open house will provide the public with more information about the Proposed Undertaking.

Anyone who attends will have the opportunity to speak directly with representatives from OPG and their environmental consulting team with regard to the OWA Class EA. OPG has retained Arcadis Canada Inc. to undertake the Class EA process. For more information, please contact: For more details, please visit calabogiegs.com.

It wasn't a straightforward yes or no when it came to raising the Pride flag in McNab/Braeside, believed to be the first township in the Upper Ottawa Valley.

Home Furnishings, and One Mohr Time (Little Love's Co.) boutique, are doing just over $2,200 worth of exterior painting and other façade improvements. Town council agreed to provide an $1,100 grant in the name of beautifying the downtown.

The faded pink paint is chipping in places. The work will

PLEASE, GIVE TURTLES A 'BRAKE' This time of year, turtles are prevalent on our roadways, and the Nature Conservancy of Canada is asking motorists to give turtles a "brake."

We are now in an active period when turtles are moving from their usual habitats and motorists encounter turtles on busy roads in major centres, on back roads or on the way to the cottage. Turtles are vulnerable especially between now and October.

Like other reptiles, turtles are cold-blooded so basking on gravel, sandy road sides or warm asphalt feels good on cool spring days. Adult turtles set out to mate and find nesting sites.

In late summer and early fall, newly-hatched turtles travel from their nest to a nearby wetland or water body.

While a turtle's shell can protect them from predators, it's no match for a car.

Turtle deaths are a major issue in some parts of the country, and all eight turtle species in Ontario are at risk.

The Blanding's turtle is more endangered than pandas. In Quebec, six turtle species are provincially designated as threatened or vulnerable.

When a turtle is struck by a car, it can have a bigger impact than just the loss of that one turtle. Studies show just a five per cent increase in annual mortality can put an entire population at risk of decline.

We encourage motorists to slow down when they see a turtle on the road and check to be sure they can safely steer around it.

If you want to help, ensure your safety is paramount on the roadways.

Move the turtle in the direction that it's crossing.

For smaller turtles like Blanding's and Midland painted, simply pick them up and carry them across the road.

If you're helping a snapping turtle, be wary of their spiked tails and sharp snouts. They can be heavy too up to 75 pounds. To move these guys, lift them using their "handles" on either side of their shell by the tail and move them like a wheelbarrow across the road.

Some people may carry turtle gear in their vehicle. A shovel and a car mat are handy to help guide the turtle.

Pushing or shoving turtles across roads with your feet or sticks isn't advisable. Their shells aren't as thick underneath, and rough pavement can do a lot of damage. Other threats to turtles include habitat loss, invasive species and illegal collection for the pet trade.

Whether you're a turtle helper or you drive on past them, please just be kind to them.

WHO WE ARE LETTERS & COMMENTARY SENIORS MONTH KUDOS To the editor: June is Seniors Month, what a wonderful time to celebrate life, its freshness, and take this opportunity to express ourselves and acknowledge the people and organizations who have helped enrich our lives.

Today's older adults are different than yesteryear's.

We are increasingly well and active, we are living healthier and even longer, and we are an economic driver today in that the baby boomer population are numerically superior and control the bulk of wealth and spending in this country. That is why municipalities should continue to seize this opportunity to involve older adults and capitalize on their social and economic capabilities moving forward. We are so fortunate to live in a community that recognizes our value and worth.

I want to take this Seniors Month opportunity, on behalf of the Greater Arnprior Senior's Council (GASC), to thank our seniors and community partners for helping our council

oversee the ongoing development, implementation, and monitoring of Arnprior's age friendly community action plan. We thank you for helping our team achieve our main goals, which are to enhance facilities and infrastructure, improve senior-focused services and supports, and foster positive engagement and active lifestyles for seniors in the Greater Arnprior Region. We could not have achieved the results that we all share today without your active participation and support.

I would like to close this piece on a humorous note.

Many older adults refer to themselves now as seenagers (senior teenagers) because they have everything that they wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later.

1. I don't have to go to school or work.

2. I get an allowance every month.

3. I have my own pad.

4. I don't have a curfew.

5. I have a driver's licence and my own car.

6. And, I don't have acne.

Life is good.

SUPPLY WASTE AN ISSUE To the editor: Re: 'Thanks for making a difference,' May 30. I was impressed by your timely column about the members of the paramedic service.

It is one of the few efficient operations in Ontario and should be commended for its professionalism and dedication. The care the paramedics give to their housebound patients both old and young is beyond excellent.

That being said, my one complaint is about the shocking over-supply of surgical dressings. In every case requiring regular home visits a large container of supplies is delivered to the patient's home.

At the end of the treatment there are always surplus items that cannot be returned to source.

There must be a more efficient way of distributing such necessary equipment which might even reduce the operating costs of the service.

John Yakabuski and other cabinet ministers in the Ford government got hammered by social media during a coordinated beer-hunting stunt.

The Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP and his PC colleagues each went in faux search of beer in their ridings the first weekend of June. Some went to convenience stores; Yakabuski visited a Shell gas station to tell Twitter followers that it is "only fair" for the owner to be able to sell beer and wine.

"We want to give people choice and convenience," Yakabuski said. "Why should multi-national companies be the only ones to sell beer?" “Just stopped by my convenience store in Barry's Bay, and owner Mark talked about it being only fair for him to be able to sell beer and wine. We want to give people choice and convenience. Why should multinational companies be the only ones to sell beer? pic.twitter.com/sxxcCN4h65� John Yakabuski (@JYakabuskiMPP) June 1, 2019.

The Ontario government is backing out of a contract with the Beer Store that critics say will ding taxpayers up to $1 billion in legal costs. It says craft beer should have higher sales at the Beer Store, that other jurisdictions have private retailers selling alcohol, and that 9,100 jobs would be created by increasing the number of alcohol retailers.

None of that meant much to many of the at least 130 commentators on Yakabuski's Twitter account. Several posted clapping seal gifs to say Yakabuski isn't independentminded, that he unquestioningly follows Premier Doug Ford's lead. Others indicated that alcohol issues (including buck-a-beer and drinking in parks legislation) shows the government's priorities are out of place.

"I'm no fan of the degree to which the big international brewers have been granted as much control as they have," wrote Stephen Wickens, "but there are real emergencies going ignored while this government focuses on bread and circuses."

The tweet seemed to open the door to more gripes people have with the party.

Sandra Bray said, "Ontario today: $1 billion for beer choice, $3.5 billion lost on capand-trade, $100 million on White Pines cancellation, $100 million on Hydro One interference, Brad Blair lawsuit, carbon tax lawsuit."

Other PC members were met with similar responses.

ADHS STUDENTS WALK FOR A CURE DEREK DUNN derek.dunn@metroland.com Student participation at Relay For Life, held June 6 at Arnprior District High School, was larger than last year. And so was their desire to top last year's contribution to the Canadian Cancer Society.

"Almost everybody out here has a reason to walk," said co-organizer Lizzie Wyatt. "Most know someone who had cancer, and it's a small town so you hear about

Derek Dunn/Torstar It didn't take long for Liz Wyatt, centre, to gather friends at her side. The Relay For Life co-organizer is pleased with the turnout this year, and hopes to raise $60,000 for cancer research. someone else."

Walking the track were 180 participants this year, 20 more than last. They raised a record $15,600, about $2,000 more than last year.

Along with co-organizer Abby Mulvihill, Lizzie and her team tried to keep it light for the most part. Bouncy castles, food and music, activities such as line dancing, a sponge fight, and a lip sync battle will keep the kids going from 10 a.m. to

10 p.m.

Just after dark, at 9:30 p.m., there was a luminary ceremony. The track was lined with faux candles in bags, each with the name of someone being remembered, and participants are encouraged to have a silent walk.

Anyone touched by the cause or who simply wanted to make a donation could visit the track behind the school and Arnprior District Memorial Hospital.

Growing in Faith!

insideottawavalley.com

The other day I was taken to the top of a spectacular lookout in Muskoka. The view was breathtaking, with miles of rolling, forested hills and sparkling lakes in sight. But when I looked down at my feet, the view was equally spectacular. Circles of lime green decorated the ageless pink granite, with splashes of black and grey scattered hither and yonder. What I was seeing was not tasteless graffiti but a field of living organisms. The rocks were painted with lichens.

Now, lichens are neither plants, nor are they ordinary entities. They are unique in the natural world, for lichens are actually two very different organisms living as one. Each species - and there are at least 14,000 types of lichens found throughout the world - consists of a fungus and an alga living in a symbiotic relationship. The fungus provides a house for the alga, which in turn produces food through photosynthesis. Remarkably, when separated from each other and grown in the laboratory, the fungus partner cannot grow into its lichen shape. Only when its alga component is united with it does it return to its characteristic form.

In his beautiful and incomparable book, Lichens of North America, Irwin Brodo calls this change the "mysterious transformation."

Lichens can be found growing on almost any surface, from rocks to tree trunks, from exposed earth to graveyard headstones. Lacking roots, most of their mineral intake is derived from moisture in the air, with rainfall and surface runoff providing some moisture as well.

The lichens we tread on while climbing rocky slopes are called crustose lichens because they form a tight crust on the rock. Their growth is very slow, often less than a millimetre per year. Thus, when we see brightly painted rocks, thousands of years have transpired since lichens first colonized them.

Some lichens form upright structures, a few not unlike miniature, colourful golf tees. These are fruticose lichens. Those lovely hanging lichens known as old man's beard (usnea) belong in this category, as do the delightful pixie cups and redcapped British soldiers, tiny denizens of logs and hard-packed ground.

The large, leaf-like lichens that often smother rock faces are foliose lichens. Of these, rock tripes are eaten, but mostly as starvation food because we lack the ability to digest lichens properly. After killing caribou, northern peoples would remove partly digested lichens from their stomachs and mix them with raw fish eggs, creating a delicacy known as "stomach ice cream!"

Dyes have been created from lichens and nature also puts lichens to good use.

Ruby-throated hummingbirds and bluegray gnatcatchers cover the outside of their nests with lichens for camouflage.

Northern parulas, tiny, colourful warblers that sport mossy green backpacks, place their nests high up in hanging clumps of old man's beard, making them one of the most difficult of all bird nests to find.

Most lichens do not tolerate air pollution, which is why the centres of large cities are void of them. Thus, lichens behave like canaries in a coal mine.

Fortunately our area still has plenty of beautiful canaries.

Life is but a stopping place, A pause in what’s to be, A resting place along the road, To sweet eternity.

We all have different journeys, Different paths along the way, We are all meant to learn some things, But never meant to stay.

Our destination is a place, Far greater than we know, For some the journeys quicker, For some the journeys slow.

But when the journey finally ends, We’ll claim a great reward, And find an everlasting peace, Together with the Lord.

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