News - It took just 27 minutes after the closing of the polls for John Yakabuski to be declared elected for a fourth straight term as MPP for Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke. “I wasn’t expecting not to be elected,” said Yakabuski, two days before his 57th birthday. But he didn’t hide the disappointment with his own party’s results in a fourth straight defeat at the hands of the Liberals. While Yakabuski’s June 12 victory margin was more than 17,000 votes, the Conservatives only won 28 seats to the Liberals’ 58, good enough for a majority. The New Democratic Party won 21 seats. Echoing what his leader, Tim Hudak, said election night, the local MPP called the overall results “quite disappointing” and “bittersweet.” Having inherited the premiership when Dalton McGuinty left the post, Kathleen Wynne now leads a new Liberal government after becoming Ontario’s first female premier to be directly elected by the people of the province. The Conservatives are left short of power after again struggling with the delivery of their message. See LOCAL LIBERAL Page 3

Local Liberal candidate delighted by provincial victory
NDP candidate Brian Dougherty at Renfrew ‘victory’ party that ended up being a celebration of an improved third-place finish in RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke. DEREK DUNN/ METROLAND
larly after Hudak’s strong showing in the TV debate. NEW LEADER
But not so, as Hudak saw the writing on the wall election night when he announced he will not lead the PCs in the next election. Perhaps, just perhaps, one of the candidates for the PC leadership could be John Yakabuski. When asked about that possibility, Yakabuski smiled and called it “a question for another day.” Among the 50 or so people who attended the victory cel-
ebration for Yakabuski at the Pembroke Best Western (including several Yakabuski family members) was Pembroke Mayor Ed Jacyno. “John is extremely hardworking, people in the riding realize that, and they have returned him to the prestigious position that he should be in,” said Jacyno. “Perhaps if he was running for the leadership, maybe it would have been a different story. I truly believe that, based on his past performance.” LIBERAL RUNNER-UP
Meanwhile, runner-up, Liberal candidate, Rod Boileau, didn’t take in the results at a riding restaurant or hotel, which is typical. He opted to stay at his Arnprior area home and watch the results with his family. Reached by phone, Boileau was ecstatic at how well his Liberals were doing across the province. “I’m feeling great. This is really looking up for the Liberal party,” he said. Boileau added that the riding was red for many years with Sean Conway and could return again as early as the next election. He didn’t rule out running in four years, intimating that he is considering another run.
NDP THIRD
New Democrat candidate Dougherty thanked supporters at a Renfrew restaurant for all their hard work during the 40day election race. Dougherty watched the results with family and supporters at Coco Jarry’s in Renfrew. He started off the night positively enough, saying he hadn’t eaten all day and that anything can happen on election night; the orange crush of NDP wins in Quebec during the last federal election was but one example. But when it got to the 40 per cent votes counted mark, it became obvious Yakabuski was to take the riding again. Dougherty called his people together and thanked them and suggested the riding is moving in the right direction. “We are definitely winning this riding one day,” Dougherty said. “It will be orange to match the rest of the north.” He hoped to reach the 20 per cent support level that was a riding high, back in the 1990 election. But it was not to be. He ended up with 14.5 per cent of the vote.
Yakabuski received 25,241 votes (61.1 per cent), Boileau 7,897 (19), Dougherty 5,978 (14.5), Green’s Ben Wright 1,337 (3.2), Confederation of Regions candidate Murray Reid 490 (1.2) and Independent candidate Chad Beckwith-Smith 397 (0.9). The official final vote tally and poll-by-poll results were to be released Wednesday (after press deadline). The voter turnout in Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke was 54.7 per cent. The provincial turnout was 52.1, up from 48.2 per cent in 2011.

Re-elected MPP John Yakabuski had plenty to celebrate last Thursday night. Aside from retaining his seat in the Ontario Legislature, representing Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke, he celebrated his 57th birthday a couple of days early (it was Saturday). At his victory party in the Pembroke Best Western, staff and supporters surprised him with a birthday cake. He enjoys the moment with granddaughter Lilli.
“We had 15 per cent before and 20 per cent with the counting not done yet (he ended up with 19 per cent). And it was an uphill battle all the way. John has lots of connections,” Boileau said. “I’m getting important nods, and we’re definitely planted in the riding now.” Boileau said he was “thrilled to see that the people of Ontario have sent a clear rejection of Hudak’s regressive platform and voted for Kathleen Wynne’s vision to build Ontario up. “We need a leader who champions health care, education, pensions, infrastructure and, of course, job creation.” Rounding out his remarks, Boileau thanked his opponents for a respectful campaign. “I congratulate John Yakabuski on his re-election and to my friend and fellow Scout leader, Brian Dougherty (NDP). It was a respectful and hardfought race and we can all hold our head high.”

“It’s clear we miscalculated the push-back on the single most controversial part of our platform, which was the reduction of the public service by 100,000 jobs over four years,” said Yakabuski. “I think it was messaged badly and it was reported poorly in the media, based on our messaging, and I don’t think we ever recovered from that,” added Yakabuski. “It clearly had an effect on our riding as well. When I was campaigning, I was extremely pleased with the response from people, but the numbers for the Liberals and the NDP (were) higher this time than they were in 2011. And I don’t think it’s anything to do with the job I’ve been doing … it was similar across the province.” Yakabuski captured 61.1 per cent of the vote, down from more than 70 per cent in 2011. “He works for the people, and he’s visible all the time,” said long-time Progressive Conservative supporter Glen Campbell in expressing satisfaction with Yakabuski’s victory. Campbell also expressed surprise that the Liberal Party was re-elected with such ease. “I (feel) very sick. There must be a lot of very stupid people in Ontario … I’m very disappointed. Maybe they (PCs) went too far to the right (by promising to cut too many public sector jobs).” Yakabuski said he thought the PCs were preparing for a stronger result than in 2011, particu-

An estimated 2,000 people visited the park during the event. The entertainers will all return to perform for the Concerts in the Park series, which starts this Sunday, June 22 with Dan Sullivan. The concerts continue all summer on Sundays from 2 to 4 p.m. at Robert Simpson Park. Right, Dawson Archambeault makes his way down one of the bouncy attractions during Priorpalooza 2014.
UPCOMING COUNCIL MEETINGS: June 24, 2014 @ 6:00 pm – Council Committee of the Whole (Immediately following Council) All meetings held in the Council Chambers (3131 Old Perth Road) unless otherwise indicated.
NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Mississippi River Power Corporation’s Annual General Meeting will be held on Monday, June 23rd at 7:30am, in the boardroom of the Corporation’s offices at 28 Mill Street, Almonte. All are welcome.
WATER RESTRICTIONS The Watering Restrictions By-law 04-14 is designed to regulate and control the usage of water, within the Almonte Ward, in the hot summer months. Between May 1st and September 30th each year there are limitations on who can water and at what time. Odd number houses may water on odd calendar days and even numbered houses may water on even numbered days. Watering may occur between the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. each day and from only one connection. Midday is the hottest time of the day and the water is more likely to be wasted through evaporation when watering at this time. Watering from more than one
connection simply uses too much water at once. A significant amount of new grass or sod is exempted from these provisions for one week. Any other violations of the by-law may result in a fine.

Excitement grows as Clara’s Big Ride draws closer to Arnprior News - Steve D’Eon from Clara Hughes’ Big Ride community working group arrived at Renfrew County’s health committee meeting June 11 with a blue bike. He presented the committee with the symbol of support for Clara’s Big Ride for Bell Let’s Talk that will makes two stops in the county later this month. The bike remains on display in front of the County of Renfrew administration building at 9 International Dr. in Pembroke. Hughes is a six-time Canadian Olympic speed-skating and cycling medallist and the national spokesperson for Bell Let’s Talk. As her cross-country tour of more than 12,000 kilometres, to bring awareness to mental health issues draws to a close, she will make stops June 29 in Deep River and June 30 in Arnprior. Hughes’ 110-day ride is a circumnavigation of Canada, with stops at more than 125 communities. The ride ends in Ottawa on July 1, Canada Day. Deep River will host a community welcome with family-oriented activities. Arnprior will be hosting a public reception with a free barbecue June 30 at Robert Simpson Park from 5 to 7 p.m. County of Renfrew Warden Peter Emon gladly accepted the Blue Bike on behalf of the county, and spoke

The blue bike, which symbolizes support for the Clara Hughes Big Ride for Bell Let’s Talk, was the centrepiece during last week’s Renfrew County health committee meeting. From left are Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon, committee vice-chair Tammy-Lea Stewart, Steve D’Eon from Clara’s Big Ride community working group, and Renfrew County chief administrative officer Jim Hutton. to the importance of mental-health awareness. “Clara’s ride is an important event in that it signifies it is okay to look for help and deal with mental health as a treatable chapter in your life,� said Emon. “Clara has shown everyone can
acknowledge their mental health challenges and then enjoy your own level of success when you are able,� he added. “Clara and her volunteers are a great asset to our community and we trust and hope their message of acceptance and discussion resonates for a long time with people
living with mental-health challenges and the assistors in our community.� Momentum has been building since she departed in a snowstorm in March from Toronto. Clara’s Big Ride is about removing the stigma from mental health and creating meaningful opportunities for community building or fundraising in support of local mental health initiatives. Bell and other leading Canadian corporations are covering all costs for Clara’s Big Ride, so every dollar raised will stay in the community to benefit local mental-health programs. Despite rumours that the ride had fallen behind schedule jeopardizing the timetable, ride officials issued a release Sunday confirming Hughes will ride into Arnprior June 30 and attend Canada Day celebrations in Ottawa. Hughes spent the weekend in her home town of Winnipeg and moved into Ontario Monday for the final two weeks of her ride in Ontario. Her journey toward a stigma-free Canada is scheduled to include stops in Kenora, Dryden, Upsala, Thunder Bay, Terrace Bay, Marathon, Wawa, Sault Ste. Marie, Blind River, Sudbury, North Bay, Deep River and Arnprior “I’m looking forward to returning to Ontario tomorrow, Day 95 of the Big Ride and sharing mental health
stories with Ontarians over the next 2 weeks,� she said in a news release Sunday. Prior to cycling into Renfrew County, Hughes will visit North Bay June 28 and 29. On June 29 at 6:30 p.m., she will attend a welcome event at a park in Deep River. On June 30, she will attend and speak at ‘Clara’s Big Ride barbecue’ from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Robert Simpson Park. She will ride into Ottawa on July 1 and will be welcomed during the Canada Day celebrations on Parliament Hill. The community events in Ontario are being organized by local ‘community champions’. “We thank our community champions in Manitoba, Ontario and across the country for their leadership and hard work to support Clara’s Big Ride,� said Mary Deacon, chair of Bell Let’s Talk. “It’s through them that we’re growing the mental health conversation and working to make all our communities stigma-free. With the support of these great local champions, Clara’s Big Ride is increasing awareness, acceptance and action at the grassroots level right across Canada.� Visit http://clarasbigride.bell.ca/ en/# for more details about Clara’s Big Ride or check Twitter at @Bell_ LetsTalk or Facebook at Facebook. com/BellLetsTalk.

Arnprior council candidate to take out the trash Doug Smith to violate garbage bylaw in effort to have it changed Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com
LETTER
Then, earlier this month, the town sent a letter advising business owners of the bylaw. Written by public works director Guy Bourgon, it reminds all not to put out garbage before 7 p.m. and that “a number of businesses” in the downtown core have been placing garbage at the curbside “early in the day” Tuesdays. “A clean and tidy appearance in our downtown core is paramount to helping to ensure that visitors return

PILING UP
DOUG SMITH
Coun. Lynn Grinstead lives downtown and is a champion of businesses in the core. She said the garbage is piling up, but that it is also residents along Madawaska Street and elsewhere who contribute. She was even tempted to bring it to Bourgon’s attention, but then got the letter in her mailbox. “I almost went to Guy to say I’ve been noticing garbage being put out up to 24 hours early,” Grinstead said. “If I’m noticing it, other people must be noticing it.” She said she would consider looking at the current bylaw and maybe pushing it back to the original 5 p.m. To her, the problem is a few bad apples that are spoiling a system that has worked for two years. As for Smith’s claim that bylaw officer Jim McBain is “giving out warnings and threats, intimidations” to many business owners, Grinstead says she hasn’t heard of any complaints to town hall. “I know Jim to be fair. I’ve not heard any complaints regarding Jim McBain,” Grinstead said. In an email Smith sent to an undisclosed number of recipients, he doesn’t cite specific examples or identifiable individuals involved. But he is willing to step in for those feeling intimidated. “If you feel intimidated or are in fear of putting out your garbage between 5-7 p.m. on Tuesdays, please let me know and I will personally put out your garbage … at 5 p.m. on Tues-
days,” Smith wrote. “Put my name Doug Smith on your two bags if you prefer. I will personally take responsibility for any fines from the Town of Arnprior and challenge them in court in this matter.” He also welcomed media to photograph him violating the bylaw. He has started a petition to have the bylaw changed to 4:30 p.m.
R0032760176/0619
News – The lengths to which a candidate will go to win your support. Doug Smith, who is running for council in the Oct. 27 municipal election, has offered to carry garbage out to the curb. So upset is he with the garbage pick-up bylaw, that Smith has taken it upon himself to ward off the “over-handed methods of fear and intimidation” of the bylaw officer to deliver bags for downtown business owners. “We have to accommodate business people,” said the owner of a now closed business at the corner of John and Elgin streets. “They are having a tough time in a tough economy.” His beef with the municipality started two years ago when he got wind of the bylaw changing. For decades owners could put garbage out at the end of the business day Tuesday for pick-up on Wednesday at 7:30 a.m. When the bylaw was changed to not allow garbage being put out before 7 p.m., about two hours after most owners have locked up and gone home, Smith and others cried foul. Few would come back to put the garbage out two hours after closing time, he reasoned. He also said it wasn’t enforceable because calling the bylaw officer after 5 p.m. resulted in an answering machine. No one would arrive until the next day.
and continue to do business in Arnprior,” Bourgon wrote. “The town requests your co-operation when and where you are placing garbage out for collection, as early set outs and dumping are creating an eyesore and odour issues that affect your business as well as many other surrounding businesses.”
The Arnprior Rotary Club recently presented the McCluskey family with the Paul Harris Fellowship, an award that recognizes exemplary community service. The McCluskeys, owners of both Arnprior Tim Hortons locations, are known for their support and sponsorship of various groups, projects, initiatives and individuals in the community. Above, Rotary president Bruce Buie, right, presents the certificates and lapel pins to, from left, Chris, Ian, Bonnie and Peter. The family was honoured at an event June 2 at P.J’s restaurant in Arnprior. The certificate reads: “In appreciation of tangible and significant assistance given for the furtherance of better understanding and friendly relations between peoples of the world.” The fellowship is named for Paul Harris, who founded Rotary with three businesses in 1905. It was established in his honour in 1957 to express appreciation for a contribution to the humanitarian and educational programs of the Rotary Foundation. The programs include an array of projects that save and invigorate the lives of people around the world and enhance international friendship and understanding.

Making sense of it all
C
ongratulations Premier Wynne. Against all odds, the Liberals, a party long in the tooth after 11 years in office and weighed down by a long string of scandals and controversies, has once again returned to power at Queen’s Park. From the outset of the election, the province seemed ripe for change. Ontarians were figuratively screaming for it, according to poll after poll. It just wasn’t the type of change pundits expected. Progressive Conservatives across the province were in collective shock as they watched the election results come in on June 12. They expected voters to punish a party - just not their own. Few expected a Liberal majority. In the aftermath, the voters, including the pundits and journalists furiously pounding out copy to meet deadline, are left scratching their heads trying to figure out what it all means. Well, Premier, we can start with what it doesn’t mean. The results were not a ringing endorsement for your policies, or a thumbs up for the economic direction Ontario has been heading under 11 years of Liberal rule. Many voters question Liberal policies, such as the Green Energy Act, the decision to pay corporations to set up shop in Ontario, an historic low corporate tax rate, a bumbling strategy to encourage industrial growth – need
we go on? Voters headed into the June election with a bad taste in their mouth after digesting the Liberals’ latest budget proposal, which promised to add $5.7 billion in new spending while bizarrely indicating the intention to erase the deficit within three years. Keep in mind, the provincial debt has doubled under the Liberal’s watch and the province currently operates with a massive and growing deficit. But still we are left with the question of your party’s improbable victory. We can only conclude that this was an election about what voters didn’t want. It was a complete and utter repudiation of Progressive Conservative leader Tim Hudak and was also the last election he will fight at the helm of the party. However, it went much further than Hudak and, before him, John Tory. It even goes further than the way the message was communicated. (Staying positive didn’t work any better than Tory’s hammering the Liberals in the past.) The central problem with the Progressive Conservatives over the last three elections has been the message: austerity. As in no one buys it as a credible means to emerge from a sluggish economy. Not David Dodge, not even the IMF. The next leader will have to balance cuts with spending, at best, if they hope to convince voters they understand economics.
LETTERS
City voters gave Liberals another election victory over Tories To the Editor: I loved the headline in the Ottawa Sun the day after the election, ‘Up Grit Creek’, and we all know the rest, “without a paddle.� Hopefully a majority government will be good news for Ontario. The newly elected premier has promised to do things differently. Spend our tax dollars wisely, invest $29 billion on infrastructure (primarily in Ottawa and Toronto for light rail transit), increase our taxes, which is necessary to keep her commitment to balance the budget by 2017. By doing this, the Liberals expect the economic growth of 2.8 to 4.7 per cent will offset spending and help balance the books. All of these items were contained in her last budget, which the NDP rejected and forced the election upon which the Liberals based their campaign and won. Why is this good news? Because
the voter turnout was over 50 per cent (52.1), meaning the majority of Ontario voters voted to endorse and accept the Liberal platform. This is how democracy works and it works well even with its flaws. Representation by Population creates a regional imbalance, obviously favoring urban centres over rural. But until we get some form or variation of Proportional Representation, the cities win out. All the big cities, Ottawa, Toronto, York, Brampton/Mississauga, St, Catherines, Thunder Bay, Greater Sudbury, Windsor, London, Kitchener/Waterloo, Burlington, Hamilton, Scarborough, Peterborough, Oakville and Guelph voted Liberal or NDP. No Conservative rep. in any city. Wow! Liberals got 59 seats with 37.9 per cent of the vote; they should only get 38 seats. NDP 21 seats with 24.6 per cent of the vote, they should only get 25 seats. The Conservatives got 27
seats with 31.1 per cent of the vote - they should get 31 seats and we should reduce the legislature to 94 seats from 107 (now that would save some money). And do you know what else I noticed? Not one riding in Ontario with a university voted Conservative. I guess the new world order is live with debt, live for to-day and the future be damned, let the next generation cope with it! Why is balancing the budget important? Because the amount we allow governments to spend over and above revenues goes to the provincial debt, which currently sits at $267.5 billion and increasing every day at an annual rate of 5 per cent - so by 2017 our debt will be over $300 billion. This is money that the province borrows through credit facilities like issuing bonds to individuals and countries, which have to be paid back at some point in time. This government has issued $250
billion in bonds and the interest costs alone are $11 billion per year. That’s a lot of money not going to essential services like health care, education and transportation. Credit agencies rate a province’s ability to cope with its debt and if the debt-to-revenue ratio becomes too high, the interests rates go up creating even more difficulty to offer important services. So how do we compare with the rest of Canada? According to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, our debt to revenue ratio is 237.7 per cent, the worst in Canada. Alberta is the best at a ratio of 31.1 per cent so they have lots of room to borrow - we don’t. A total of 9.2 per cent of revenues in this province is spent on interest payments - no debt reduction, interest only, so as the government keeps running deficits, the debt keeps growing and eventually services will suffer.

It seems like governments have become all things to the majority of people and there is no price to pay for broken promises, overspending and partisan politics, even at the federal level. In conclusion, I will skip analyzing why the Conservatives didn’t do better against a corrupt governing party because the experts and the pollsters have already covered that aspect in depth. Even though the Conservatives lost out, they did get the support of the Ottawa Valley and rural Ontario, home of hard-working, salt-of-theearth citizens who have sent a strong message that they want smaller government, their concerns dealt with seriously and a regime that spends tax dollars wisely on essential programs that match government revenues.

Town acting in good faith, landfill safe: mayor
LANDFILL IMPROVEMENTS TO BENEFIT NEIGHBOURS
2. The final straw for me were the comments made by Ms. Anderson last week related to Arnprior’s landfill site. I will be the first to admit that it is not in an ideal location; however, it is the location that we have to work with. The fact is that Arnprior is undertaking a comprehensive review of our landfill operations and are considering many options that would improve things for our neighbours in McNab-Braeside. The comments made by Ms. Anderson stating that Arnprior is in flagrant dereliction of regulations and laws related to the landfill site and that we continue to pay fines because of it, are offensive, have no basis whatsoever in the truth, and are both
defamatory and libelous. I contacted Ms. Anderson to discuss the inaccuracy of her comments and I sincerely hope that she will voluntarily reconsider her comments and retract them without delay. The Arnprior landfill site, as with all landfill sites, was duly licensed through proper public process and operates under strict guidelines, all of which Arnprior meets or exceeds. The site is monitored constantly and mandatory reporting is undertaken by qualified staff as well as expert external professionals. These mandatory requirements are also overseen by all applicable regulatory authorities. Semi- and tri-annual testing of ground and surface water within the attenuation zone have never came close to levels of concern to public safety, nor were regulations or laws ever broken and fines imposed, as falsely purported by Ms. Anderson. The fact is that the leachate is mostly mineral based and commonly found in groundwater. The wells tested at this site approach and in many cases meet “reasonable use� standards established by the provincial government and have no known impact on neighbouring properties or the Ottawa River. In closing, Arnprior has always opened our facilities to welcome our neighbours and it is our sincerest hope that we can reach a fair and reasonable long-term solution to some of these issues following this year’s municipal elections. However, if we cannot, Arnprior will move on continuing to provide to the best of our ability, good, affordable library and recreation facilities and programs for our own residents. Either way, this childish nonsense has to stop!

I am certain that those who have sniped from the shadows and insulted my integrity, that of my council colleagues and our staff will not come forward with any substantive information for one reason and one reason only: because it simply doesn’t exist. All that we have ever asked is to sit down together with our neighbours to collaborate in order to arrive at a fair and reasonable long-term solution for the shared use of Arnprior’s library and recreation facilities. We have only ever asked for what is reasonable, affordable and supported by best practices of other joint use agreements in many other jurisdictions.

To the Editor: Enough is enough! I have been trying to take the high road and have been resisting the urge to respond to various public comments and letters to the editor of the Chronicle-Guide for several months now. However, after reading the letter to the editor from Gail Anderson in the June 12 Chronicle-Guide, I can no longer stand by and remain silent without setting the record straight with the truth and the facts. 1. Ms. Anderson and some members of the McNab-Braeside council have publicly stated that the user information provided by Arnprior in support of mutually negotiating fair and reasonable Joint Recreation and Library Agreements are significantly overstated and to that end, essentially Arnprior is not being truthful to further our cause. The reality is that these statements are baseless and could not be further from the truth.

When continents collide our valley was formed Ole Hendrickson Watershed Ways
Lifestyle - Slow-motion video footage of the Ottawa Valley’s past would have captured the formation and disappearance of great mountain ranges and ice sheets, accompanied by massive earthquakes and floods, interspersed with long periods of warm, shallow seas. We have no videos, but thanks to the efforts and research of many scientists we have a pretty clear picture of the Valley’s geological history. Marine bacteria ruled the Earth in the Precambrian over a billion years ago. Precursors of the continents of Africa, Europe, and South America converged on an older and smaller version of North America, creating a supercontinent called Rodinia. Continental plates crashed together and buckled upwards, forming the mighty Grenville Mountains, higher than the Himalayas. Molten rock surged from deep within the earth to fill the spaces beneath the up-thrust plates. Near the epicentre of
this great collision, a great upsurge of magma slowly cooled into the granite dome of the Algonquin batholith, occupying much of the current area of Algonquin Park and adjacent Renfrew County. Erosion wore away Rodinia’s great mountains and exposed their granitic roots during the next 250 million years. As the thickness and weight of the crust decreased, the remaining nubs of the mountains floated upwards on the heavier underlying molten mantle. During the late Precambrian, 750 million years ago, Rodinia cracked into new continental plates. These pulled apart, leaving bits and pieces stuck onto the North American plate and increasing its size. During the break-up of the super-continent, North America itself began to split apart in the area now occupied by the Ottawa and St. Lawrence valleys. Through a series of massive earthquakes, a great rift opened in the continent with deep cracks extending downwards 40 kilometres to the base of the Earth’s crust. As these cracks wid-

ened, the land between them slumped downwards, leaving a ‘graben’: a valley with sheer escarpments on either side. Views of the northern and southern walls of the graben – the Laurentian Mountains of Quebec and the Opeongo Mountains of Ontario – are a defining feature of Renfrew County. The newly created Ottawa Valley was transforming into an ocean with Ontario and Quebec on opposite sides - just as a new ocean was appearing between the North American and Eurasian continental plates. But then the rifting stopped and the earthquakes subsided. Tranquillity followed. North America lay near the equator, drifting slowly northwards. Warm, shallow tropical seas covered the Ottawa Valley. Marine life flourished during the Ordovician Era. Fossils of trilobites, clams and mussels, snails, relatives of squids and octopi, sponges, corals, and sand dollars were deposited in the 450-million-year-old sedimentary limestone that formed over billion-yearold Precambrian rocks. These marine fossils are readily found along the Ottawa and Bonnechere Rivers today. During a more recent geological era, continental plates again converged to
form another great supercontinent, Pangaea. Their collision created another mountain range - the Appalachians – to the east of the Laurentians. Around 175 million years ago Pangaea split apart and the Atlantic Ocean re-opened, accompanied by more earthquakes and faulting in the Ottawa Valley. The geological history of the Ottawa Valley was not well understood until the 1960s. Scientists such as the Canadian John Tuzo Wilson agreed that evidence was overwhelming for seafloor spreading and collisions of continental plates. Wilson’s scientific contributions were so critical that the cycle of formation and disappearance of oceans is known as the ‘Wilson Cycle’. The final events in the Valley’s geological history took place during a threemillion-year ice age. For two million years glacial and inter-glacial periods alternated quickly, lasting about 40,000 years each. But during the past million years, the cycles lengthened to 100,000 years. Intense cold periods created continental-scale ice sheets. The last of these, the Laurentide Ice Sheet, flowed southwest from the region of Hudson Bay. It reached the Ottawa Valley around 60,000 years ago, covering the Valley with ice

to a maximum thickness of two to three kilometers. WHITE LAKE WHALE
When the ice began its retreat around 20,000 years ago, its weight had greatly depressed the land surface, and it held so much water that global sea level had fallen by 70 meters. As it melted the Atlantic Ocean flooded into the lower portions of the Ottawa Valley and formed the Champlain Sea, with its rich diversity of marine life. In 1977, a quarry operation in eastern Renfrew County near White Lake uncovered the skeleton of a bowhead whale. During their advance and retreat, glaciers
scraped over the Ottawa Valley and the Algonquin highlands, exposing bedrock in some places, and dumping materials (‘glacial till’) elsewhere. For thousands of years the upper Great Lakes and much of Canada west to the Rockies drained through the Ottawa Valley. At maximum flow the Ottawa River rivalled the Amazon in size. Water from the melting ice transported boulders, gravel, sand, and clays, carving deep channels such as the Barron River Canyon. The finest clay-sized particles were carried furthest downriver and deposited in the Champlain Sea, creating some of Renfrew County’s best farmland.

Renfrew County residents live in an ancient and special place. Mountain-building forces of continental collisions, combined with the erosive and depositional power of water (both ice and liquid), sculpted the present-day landscapes of the Ottawa Valley - its hills, plains, escarpments, canyons, rivers, lakes and wetlands. Knowledge of this geologic history informs decisions to conserve our precious soils, waters, and biological resources.

CORRECTIONS News - The May 29 ChronicleGuide story ‘The cost of garbage’ incorrectly estimated the landfill’s closing costs. In fact it is $53 per ratepayer, per year for 15 years (not accounting for inflation). Also, the Ministry of Environment oversees the operation, not the Ministry of Natural Resources. Finally, leachate is not “heading” to the Ottawa River, but is in fact stable. *** In a letter entitled, ‘Arnprior Council needs to stop taking advantage of McNab-Braeside’ in last week’s Chronicle-Guide, letter-writer Gail Anderson says she was told in error that there were 500 township households using the library. It was 800 households, she says, adding, “I am sorry for the error and should have been more careful when quoting someone.” *** A photograph in the June 5 Chronicle-Guide identified a youngster at the McNab Public School Mayfest as Eve Davies. Her full name is Eve LeavoyDavies. *** Due to an editing error in a story in the June 5 Chronicle-Guide, Walter Stack was referred to as a small ‘l’ liberal or Red ‘Rory’. It should have read Red Tory. The Chronicle-Guide apologizes for the errors and clarification.

Lifestyle - For the majority of people the natural world consists of things encountered during the day. Monarch butterflies, American Robins and Groundhogs are more than familiar for that reason. While the majority of animals are active between sunrise and sunset, as darkness envelops the land, a veritable army of creatures begins to stir. Currently, a number of spectacular giant moths are flying at night. Some are being encountered as they rest during the day. Recently, readers sent me photos of one for identification. The creature was large, fuzzy, and colourful. The mystery insect was a Cecropia Moth, which, with a wingspan of nearly seven inches, is the largest moth in our area. Cecropias are Giant Silk Moths (Saturniidae), a group that includes Polyphemus and the famous Luna moths. Giant Silk Moths spend the winter as pupae in large cocoons; those of Polyphemus and Cecropia are suspended in shrubs, while Luna Moth cocoons are on the ground hidden in leaf litter. Giant Silk Moths fly in our area from late May through June. Males do most of the flying; females usually perch not far from where they emerged from their pupal prison and emit powerful scents known as pheromones. These speciesspecific chemical aphrodisiacs quite literally send males into a spin. Male Giant Silk Moths bear huge antennae equipped with more than two million tiny openings to capture a female’s pheromones. After sunset the males set off on aerial sojourns, their antennae spread open to scan the night air. Once a pheromone molecule is detected, a male continues his meandering flight to determine the di-
Michael Runtz Nature’s Way rection of its origin. If the molecules thin out, he changes his flight path until a denser concentration is detected. When the molecules become more frequent, his conical flight path straightens and he homes in on the molecules’ source. Incredibly some males can detect a female’s olfactory beckoning from as far away as two to three kilometres! When more than one male arrives on the scene, a veritable orgy breaks out. The males push and shove each other with usually the strongest one winning the coveted prize – the passing of genes to
the next generation. After mating, the female lays hundreds of eggs, all attached to the leaves of a plant that the caterpillars can eat. Some like Cecropia caterpillars have a wide diet. Others have a more restricted fare; Columbia Silk Moth caterpillars primarily eat Larch needles. Sadly, Giant Silk Moth populations are on the decline. A parasitic fly introduced to North America to control Gypsy Moths has been implicated in the decline. At best as adult moths Giant Silk Moths live for only a week. Most of their life is spent as a caterpillar, which grows large by the end of summer. When they finally emerge in late spring the moths have but one goal. They live only to mate. As adult moths they display one very odd feature: they lack mouthparts and so they never eat. That makes Giant Silk Moths nothing less than veritable sex machines. Barry White, move over!

McNab-Braeside Hunger strike continues looks to join RAAG Sherry Haaima
Sherry.haaima@metroland.com
Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com
News – McNab-Braeside would like to change the way it does its banking and the move will save the municipality more than $10,000. In early June, council supported a staff direction to join the Renfrew Area Administrator’s Group (RAAG). Membership is still pending until the group considers the request at an upcoming meeting. The change means the township will no longer bank with Scotiabank and will move accounts and investments to the Bank of Montreal. RAAG is a group of local organizations that markets day-to-day banking arrangements as a single entity, while still operating separate and distinct bank accounts. Membership of RAAG includes the County of Renfrew, Renfrew County Housing Corporation, the City of Pembroke, Pembroke General Hospital, Renfrew County and District Health Unit, The Children’s Aid Society of the County of Renfrew, Renfrew County District School Board, Renfrew County Catholic District School Board and Renfrew County Joint Transportation Consortium.
Treasurer Angela Lochtie presented the case to council. “I think the BMO rep was saying it’s the biggest buying group in Ontario,” said Lochtie. “This would be would be starting next year – RAAG would have to accept us as a member at their annual meeting in July.” The change will mean savings of about $12,000 said Lochtie. Mayor Mary Campbell wondered whether terminating the township’s relationship with Scotiabank, which includes past sponsorship of township events, was a good idea. “I’m not questioning the returns, I’m questioning the value of the relationship,” said Campbell. Lochtie said she had tried to negotiate lower rates with Scotia but the RAAG/ BMO option proved to be the biggest savings.
News – McNab-Braeside resident Len Chapeski’s hunger strike has continued into its second week. Chapeski and his wife Bonnie have been trying since last fall to get a permit to build an accessory dwelling on the Russett Drive property on which their business, Mr. Dirt, is located. Len, a 59-year-old with pancreatic problems, began the hunger strike June 10, saying he and wife Bonnie, are “desperate” to get McNab-Braeside council to act so they can build a dwelling on the property and move out of their trailer.
Armed man robs Mac’s News - On June 7 at about 11:40 p.m., the Lanark County OPP received a report of a robbery at the Mac’s Convenience Store on Bridge Street in Almonte. A male suspect entered the store and used a weapon to threaten the clerk and demand money. The man took a small amount of cash from the register and left the store in an unknown direction. The employee was not injured. Members of the OPP attended the scene and were assisted by the OPP Forensic Identification Services Unit (FISU). Anyone with information is asked to contact Lanark County OPP at 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
Len has since had a conversation with Mayor Mary Campbell, said Bonnie. “The mayor called Friday and when Len tried to asked questions about distance (setbacks) and stuff like that she kept interrupting so he hung up on her,” she said. Len who is ingesting only fluids, has lost some weight, but is doing “not too bad,” said Bonnie. The couple has had support from the community, including gathering more signatures on a petition asking council to remove an interim bylaw that prohibits the construction of a dwelling on the site. “We’ve had people coming in just to sign the petition,” said Bonnie. “There have been a lot of horns blowing

He came from the city and his response was to say he moved to a rural area for peace and tranquility and that now he wished he’d never moved into McNab-Braeside.” There have been no meeting dates set or resolutions put forward by the township. An Ontario Municipal Board appeal on the issue has been filed by the Chapeskis and a hearing date has been set for Sept. 3. “All she wants to do is wait for the OMB hearing,” said Bonnie of the mayor, who noted township mayoral candidate Tom Peckett is the only political figure who has dropped in to express his concern. “The only one that showed concern for Len was Tom Peckett who came to the yard and begged Len to stop this because of his health,” she said.

In 2012, the OPP investigated almost 13,500 commercial vehicle collisions and the number of fatal crashes in this category reached a five-year high at 99. On June 17, the OPP teamed up with the Ministry of Transportation for Operation Corridor, an annual initiative that raises awareness among commercial vehicle drivers about safe operation and maintenance of transport trucks and other large commercial vehicles.

Be a donor, kidney recipient urges Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com
News – Here’s one more reason to sign your organ donor card. Well-known muskie fisherman Bill Craig of Arnprior was close to losing hope that he would find a match following inadequate treatment for a blister on his foot that eventually led to kidney problems. He was slowing down. Didn’t fish much. Spent most of his time at the Renfrew hospital on dialysis. There was little options open to him. Do dialysis for hours and hours a week, try to stay healthy while waiting for a kidney, or give up and die. At least on dialysis he could hope for a transplant in three to four years. “My two living donors didn’t work out,” Craig said, sitting on the couch in his very clean home with Purell containers on many side tables. “It was only 28 months when
BILL CRAIG I got the call. I was really fortunate that way.” He’ll likely remember for a long time the day the call came. It was May 22, about 5:15 p.m., and Craig was just back from a hair cut and lunch at East Side Mario’s. Then the phone rang. “She said, ‘Mr. Craig we have a kidney available for you. Are you interested?’” he recalled. “So I said, ‘Let-methink-about-it-yes!’” Within the hour he and his
family were on route to the Ottawa General. The blur of tests and procedures that followed, he said, helped distract from the major undertaking to come: six hours under the knife. And yet all went smoothly. He returned home singing the praise doctors, nurses and staff at the General. He was especially pleased with the nurses in Renfrew, and how they get to know their patients. Although the ordeal started with improper care at a hospital, Craig is more than ready to show his gratitude to the health care system. “I told the doctor, now (without dialysis treatment) I have to find something else to do with 16 hours a week.” Now Craig, the world record live release muskie holder, will spend more time on the water this summer than last. He has also pledged to raise awareness of the need for donors. For more information, log onto beadonor.ca.

Election results met with guarded optimism News - The Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSST) is expressing guarded optimism in the wake of the Liberal victory in the June 12 Ontario provincial election. “Ontario voters have clearly rejected Tim Hudak’s confrontational stance toward unions, public sector workers in general, and education workers in particular,� said OSSTF president Paul Elliott in a news release. “With this in mind, I’d like to congratulate Premier

Kathleen Wynne on winning another term in office. We are hopeful that a new mandate for the Liberal government will usher in a renewed commitment away from an austerity agenda and towards investment in Ontario’s public education system.� “We have a new bargaining process ahead of us,� continued Elliott, referring to the School Boards Collective Bargaining Act that was passed in the spring. Under that act, a number of major contract items must be the subject of centralized provincial bargaining, while other items will be negotiated between school boards and teachers or support staff at the local level. “We are eager to get this new process underway and we are hoping for fair and respectful discussions when we get to the bargaining table,� said Elliott. Ontario English Catholic Teachers’ Association president James Ryan also congratulated Kathleen Wynne on her election victory and forming the next majority government in Ontario. “Kathleen Wynne and the Liberal party put forward a progressive plan to keep Ontario moving forward and we are pleased to continue to work with her and her government,� said Ryan in a news release. “The Liberal plan for education will build on the many successes already achieved and we look forward to working together to address areas where more focus is needed, such as in special education,� he added. “One of our first priorities to address with the new government will be the start of provincial bargaining under Bill 122,� noted Ryan. “We are confident that the new government is committed to a transparent and respectful negotiation where creative ideas and solutions are valued.� Meanwhile, unionized health care workers say they are celebrating their success
across Ontario as they take in the election results with the Liberals winning a majority of seats and Andrea Horwath’s NDP claiming 21 of 107. The health care unions had openly campaigned for members to ‘Stop Hudak and save health care’ by voting for the NDP or Liberal candidate with the best chance of beating the PC candidate in each riding. “Our next step will be immediately holding the premier to account for her party’s promise of an across-the-board $1.50 raise for personal support workers retroactive to April 1, 2014, and another $2.50 by 2016,� said Services Employees International Union (SEIU) president Sharleen Stewart in a news release. “Homecare working conditions have been so bad for so long that PSWs are happy to be getting some recognition and increased awareness about what they do. “We are proud of our political action and member leadership teams’ ability to work with members on the ground to elect NDP and Liberal MPPs, helping make the Hudak name politically obsolete,� she added. “Purple power!� The Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD) also congratulated Wynne and the Liberals on their election victory. In a new release, the association said its members will continue to work with their government partners on “successfully implementing the Growth Plan by meeting intensification goals, preserving the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) and amending the Ontario Building Code to allow for six-storey wood-frame construction.� ‘IMPROVE THE BUDGET’
CUPE Ontario President Fred Hahn suggested that Wynne can credit her vic-
tory to a strategy of wooing NDP voters with a progressive agenda. “It’s now up to her to deliver,� he said in a news release. He said he looks forward to working with the Liberal government to ensure the people of Ontario have a government that will build strong communities and provide the level of services and supports people need to thrive. “Ontario voters rejected Tim Hudak and his plan to gut and privatize public services and cut public-sector jobs,� said Hahn. “They put their faith in Wynne because she campaigned on a progressive agenda that would invest in our communities and provide the services we need. Now she must demonstrate she will govern that way.� Her first opportunity to make good on her promises will be through improvements to her May budget, he said, charging that the proposed budget is being misinterpreted by many as a “very progressive� blueprint for Ontario. The fine print proves contrary, Hahn maintains. The proposed budget included less per capita spending on public services than any province in Canada and deep cuts in funding for public services, he said. He also maintained it would bring in the lowest corporate tax rates since the 1930s, tie infrastructure to privatization and proposes a pension plan that would not be universal. “A good start would be picking up on a positive concept from the NDP platform, and restoring corporate tax rates,� said Hahn. “We have a deficit because the Liberals stripped billions in revenue out of the budget, and with lowest rate since the ‘30s, there is plenty of room to correct that mistake.� Implementing a fair taxation plan would allow the government to make good on campaign promises without the hospital bed closures and other service cuts previous budgets are causing, he said.

Carp EAA hosts fly-in breakfast and open house Sunday
Driven to find doctors Urban Ford held its annual Drive One 4 UR Community last Saturday at the Arnprior Rona. In the driver’s seat is Joanne Nicholas who takes a test drive to enable Ford to donate $20 toward finding new doctors. Along for the ride is Lindsay Ziebarth, physician recruitment coordinator at Arnprior Regional Health. Reeve Walter Stack was on hand, saying even with poor weather a lot of folks came out to test drive one of 20 new Ford models and raise as much as $6,000 for the cause.

News - Pilots and the public alike are invited to a fly-in breakfast and open house at the Carp Airport this Sunday. The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Chapter 245 is hosting its annual event on Sunday, June 22, from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., rain or shine. Breakfast will be served until 11 a.m. “Hundreds of people come out from the local community and dozens of pilots fly in for a hearty breakfast, to view small and large airplanes, aircraft building demonstrations and take in the atmosphere of a busy small airport,” said Ken Potter, a member of the EAA. “We just want to share our passion for aviation with the public.” Attendees will have the opportunity to view various types of aircraft, from a certified 1946 Fleet Canuk, to a Nan Chang CJ-6 Chinese fighter, as well as a number of amateur-built planes. “This is our opportunity to just open up to the public, show them what we do, show them our planes,” said Potter. The EAA recently hosted a Young Eagles event on June 14, giving youth a chance to fly for free and gain an appreciation of airplanes. Potter volunteered for the event, which saw more than 50 youth turn out. And the cloudy weather didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits, he said. “Kids are enthusiastic, clouds are not,” Potter said. For more information about the flyin and open house event, contact Potter at kenpotter@veritasmarine.ca or by phone at 613 791-6267.

Students join adults in voting for Liberal majority News – Had the recent provincial election been decided by secondary students, the results would have been slightly different with the Liberals winning, the New Democrats placing second, and the PCs barely ahead of the Greens. Student Vote Ontario’s Student Vote is a parallel election for students under the voting age, coinciding with official election periods. The program combines in-class learning,
family dialogue, media consumption and an authentic voting experience. The purpose is to provide young Canadians with an opportunity to experience the democratic process firsthand and practice the habits of informed and engaged citizenship. The Student Vote breakdown went as such: 32.4 per cent Liberal; 26.6 NDP; 18.4 PC; 14.5 Green; 7.9 other.
Town will host community meetings to get recreation master plan input Continued from front
Dunbar and Associates are inviting everyone in the community to become involved in the master plan process. In a news release, the company states that the goal of the Arnprior Recreation Master Plan is to provide a “realistic and achievable long-term plan for future town parks, recreation facilities, trails, open spaces and recreation programming for residents of all ages and abilities.” To encourage input, the town will host five community-meeting opportunities over the next several months to engage the public. All residents, community groups, and stakeholders are invited to attend and contribute to the first community workshop on June 26. It will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Nick Smith Centre. Residents can also discuss their ideas with
the consulting team at the open house June 30 at the Clara’s Big Ride gathering at Robert Simpson Park from 5 to 7 p.m. In addition, the community is encouraged to complete a 15-minute online survey and to keep informed about the Recreation Master Plan study by visiting: http://arnprior.ca/town/ recreation-master-plan/. If you have any questions about the master plan process, contact the town’s director of parks and recreation Glenn Arthur at 613-6237301, ext. 211 or email garthur@arnprior.ca. Three additional community meetings are planned for September, October and November at the Nick Smith Community Centre, with specific dates to be announced. If you have ideas about improvements to Arnprior’s parks and recreation services, don’t keep them to yourself, urge town officials.
At 57.9 per cent of the seats, that would have given the Liberals enough to form a majority government. Same as the official vote. LOCAL RESULTS
However, in schools in the Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke riding, the PCs won with 32.7 per cent of the vote, the Liberals came in with 21.1, the NDP 20.2, Greens 16, and other 10.1. The breakdown doesn’t filter down to the
school level. Voter turn-out in the official election edged back up to almost 55 per cent in this riding. But at Arnprior schools it fell below that number. At St. Joseph’s Elementary, the ballots requested were 60; the total votes were 23. Walter Zadow requested 250 ballots but didn’t participate this time around. John XIII, A.J. Charbonneau and McNab schools do not appear on Student Vote’s website.

Holocaust survivor David Shentow, with wife Rose, speaks to Arnprior District High School Grade 10 history students recently. It is the 11th year Shentow has shared his experiences with ADHS students. He is recounting the horrors of prison camps where he lost his entire family and countless friends to the brutality of the Nazi regime. He told students he keeps speaking to schools because of all of the holocaust deniers he hears about and reads about in the newspapers.

The OPP has said it has been receiving a large amount of misdialed, erroneous or unfounded 911 calls recently. Some people have been dialing 911 in order to have information about road conditions and closures. Others have been also using the emergency contact number trying to contact a specific officer. “The 911 phone number is not intended for that use,” stresses the OPP. “911 is the emergency telephone number that connects you to police, fire or
R0012760429

911 CALLS
ambulance in an emergency situation. Calling 911 helps you reach emergency services when you require immediate assistance. An emergency is any situation when the safety of people or property is at risk and requires immediate assistance.” Police gave examples of 911 emergencies as a crime in progress, a fire or a medical emergency, or simply whenever police, fire or ambulance assistance is required immediately. Others have also been dialing the 911 combination either by mistake or by pocket dialing, note OPP. For non-emergent calls for service to the OPP the following numbers may be used: 1-888-3101122 – 24-hour dispatch centre; 1-888-310-1133 - TDD/TTY telephone; or during regular business hours 613-432-3211 Renfrew Detachment and 613-623-3131 Arnprior satellite office. The OPP offers the following tips: • Don’t program 911 into your home or cellular phones. There is a greater potential for dialing error and no significant time saved as an autodial number. • Lock your cell phone when not in use so it does not accidentally dial 911. • Old cell phones, in working condition should not be given to children, as toys. • Many cell phone services enable emergency 911 phone calls even though the phone has been deactivated. If you accidentally dial 911 the wrong thing to do is hang up. Stay on the line and explain what happened. When you hang up operators at the Provincial Communications Centre (PCC) are required to call back to determine the caller’s safety. This further keeps the line tied up and busy.

News – Thieves targeting unlocked vehicles appeared to have moved from town into the country. Renfrew-Arnprior OPP report that numerous thefts were reported during the past week, mainly of valuables left in unlocked vehicles. The thefts occurred in several rural areas including Campbell Drive on Campbell Drive. Stolen items include a wallet, loose change, an iPod, charging cords for electronic devices and sunglasses. The OPP remind vehicle owners to remove valuables from their vehicles, and to lock them when not in use. Jewelry was stolen from a home on Burnstown Road sometime prior to May 20. There was no sign of forced entry. Rings and a medic alert bracelet are missing from the home. OPP Constable Tina Hunt is investigating. The theft reports were among 219 calls for service OPP responded to last week. Included were 14 domestic disputes during the past week. One man was charged with uttering threats.

Events - Looking for something novel to do the last week in June? McNab Days promises something for everyone, whatever the age. If you’re looking for Celtic inspiration, then drop in on this Sunday, June 22, for the annual Scottish Festival. Held on the Waba Cottage grounds in White Lake to mark and honour the cultural heritage of McNab-Braeside Township, the Scottish Festival offers up a veritable smorgasbord of all things Scottish, Irish and Celtic. For children, there are Celtic games and activities running all day, starting at 9 a.m. Volunteers at each activity station will be on hand to explain to the children how to do an activity. In store this year are a minisheaf throw, boot toss, stone throw, foot race, mini tug-ofwar, mini caber toss and threelegged race. At 9:30 a.m., children can receive Gaelic lessons. Also scheduled are a multitude of fun activities, such as colouring and face painting, hair braiding, crafts and story time — learn about the Blarney stone and hear the Irish washer woman story. For adults, the organizers
Start Packing... You’re Moving!
have entertainment by Kyle Felhaver and friends, pipe band demonstrations, archery and heavyweight Highland games demonstrations, and the Sue Fay Healy Irish dancers. Back by popular demand for the second consecutive year is the Tartan Tug, courtesy of the McNab-Braeside Fire Department. Rounding out the events is a silent auction — with terrific items to bid on — the kirking of the tartan and the opening ceremony with MPP John Yakabuski singing ‘O Canada.’ RIVERDRIVE. GARDEN TOUR
The following Saturday, June 28, why not take in two very different events? You can tour heritage gardens and homes in and around Burnstown (this is a self-directed tour), and also take in the activities as part of the
annual Riverdrive Festival, at Red Pine Bay and Braeside Beach in Braeside. Take part in the annual Tartan Walk/Run – and have fun doing it. On tap this year are activity stations built into the event. The cost to participate in this one aspect of Riverdrive is $10 each or $20 for a family. Then enjoy bacon on a bun and baked beans in the morning or hot dogs, salad, pulled pork sandwich and pies in the afternoon as you walk around the grounds to take in the other activities. Back again are the dogs from Avalon Ranch, demonstrating dog agility and dock diving. Ray’s Reptiles is bringing his amazing reptile ‘zoo’ from 1 to 2 p.m. The youth activity program features face painting, stone skipping, a fossil find and other activities. Other features include river history boat tours every half hour, canoe, kayak and paddleboard loaners, live music, a silent auction, displays and demonstrations revolving around the protection of our waterways as well as area history, and portrait photography. Donations to both events will be gratefully accepted at the entrance. So mark your calendars, help support McNab Days – and have fun!

Jumpstart donations to help thousands Sports – The Arnprior Canadian Tire store, with help from the community, hosted a successful Jumpstart event May 31 The festivities raised money to help youth whose families need assistance pay to participate in local sports. Organizers stress that 100 per cent of the donations made on Jumpstart Day and throughout May are staying in this community to help local families. A local committee aids Canadian Tire in allocating the funds raised. Jumpstart organizers note the Canada-wide campaign was one of the most successful to date, raising $1.9 million across the country. About 19,000 children will “get off the sidelines and into the game this year” thanks to the donations received in the Jumpstart campaign. Since 2005, Jumpstart has been able to help more than 750,000 youth across Canada get active. Lifelong play for all kids is the goal of Jumpstart and “that’s just what they’ve accomplished,” say organizers. May 31 marked the sixth annual Jumpstart Day STEVE NEWMAN/METROLAND and the official close of the month-long campaign raising money for the one in three Canadian kids Abby Bourgois serves up cotton candy for Amirah Gilmour, 4, of Arnprior at who cannot afford to participate in sports and physi- the Jumpstart celebration and fundraiser in front of the Canadian Tire store May 31. cal activity.

C
hristie encountered hair loss, which was very frustrating. “I have tried many things before, but to no avail.”
Read about Hair Volume™ Christie has worked in a pharmacy all her life. “Maybe that is why I was skeptical, when I first read about Hair Volume. I am always studying the declarations very carefully and there was something about this product,
which made me realize that it was special.”
Very positive experience “Today I have taken the Hair Volume tablets for 38 days and I can truly feel an improvement and less hair loss. My nails are also stronger and less grooved. All in all a very positive experience. I will definitely continue taking this product”, relates a happy Christie.
DID YOU KNOW? Grey hairs can begin to appear due to a lack of copper in your diet. Hair Volume™ tablets contain copper, which affects melanin production to help avoid grey hairs.
Sports - A team of local athletes and coaches is seeing red - team Ontario red, that is. Three Special Olympians and three coaches are heading to the national Special Olympics competition in Vancouver in just a few short weeks. “I’m just so excited and I just can’t wait,” said Greg Russell, who will be competing in five-pin bowling. He’s been busy practising and perfecting his technique. Special Olympics is a charitable, non-profit organization that provides year-round sport training for persons with intel-

The recent Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics supported the athletes’ trip to Vancouver. It costs about $1,000 per athlete to send them, so fundraising is key, say officials. Local coaches going to nationals are Vicki Murdoch, Barb Cosman and Renee Stewart. “We’re all really excited,” said Stewart. “We’re so proud of our athletes and so looking forward to getting there.” Another major fundraiser for local Special Olympics is the upcoming golf tournament July 11 at the Arnprior Golf Course.

Sports – White Lake resident Dave Connelly and his Schneiders/Metro sponsored racing car team finished second in the opening round of a major race June 7 in Sauble Beach. Connelly, who has his racing car back in Arnprior for a school fundraiser this week headed to ‘the Beach’ to make a run for the 2014 championship by competing in the Lucas Oil Sportsman Cup at the Sauble Speedway. The Schneiders/Metro team unloaded and went to work testing the car in practice – the team got the car within 2/10ths of the quick time - Connelly ended up qualifying the car eighth for the feature race. “I took it way to easy in qualifying,” he explained. “I’ve really got to step up – the #24 car lit up the tires going into one, so I backed off, but it was too much.” The field roared to the green and Connelly battled on the outside looking for a hole to drop down on the inside groove. Finally after seven laps, he found the bottom and slid in behind the #24 of Brennan Didero. The battles continued as the #24, #66 of Josh Wood, and the #18 of Chad McGlynn fought lap after lap – finally the #24 and the #82 slipped by and chased after the leaders. Connelly closed back up on the bumper of the #24 and the battle of the night ensued – for the next 50 laps Connelly and Brennan battled lap after lap for fourth and fifth.
“Brennan’s a good friend and I didn’t want to spin him out, but he was holding me up. I must have hit him a dozen times, but I couldn’t move him,” said Connelly. “Finally time was ticking away and I just threw it inside going into turn three and took the spot away.” With 15 to go, Connelly had moved the Hot Rod up into the third spot but was 10-car lengths back from the leaders. With three laps to go, the #48 of Doug Cathcart spun in turn two. The field bunched up behind the pace car and Connelly sat in third spot on the inside ready to have a two-lap shoot-out. The field roared into turn one with the #60 of Jake Ott leading the field. “I parked the Hot Rod on the bumper of the #60 and hung Kevin Allen on the outside – he fought me for two turns and I cleared him going to the white flag and went after the #60,” said Connelly. “I managed to get to his bumper in four but just didn’t have enough to get him before the checker flag. We ended up second for the night … a solid finish – I needed another five laps and we might have been able to do something with the #60.” The Schneiders team was at Arnprior Metro on Tuesday to raise money for A.J. Charbonneau Public School with a barbecue and showing off the racing car.

L’Arche invites public to learn about family, group homes Liz Campbell, Debbie Rueckwald L’Arche Arnprior
Community - On this Saturday, June 21, L’Arche Arnprior will be holding its annual general meeting at St John Chrysostom Parish Hall from 11 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. The public is invited to attend. This is a wonderful opportunity to get to know the members of L’Arche Arnprior and also learn more about the mission and vision of L’Arche International’s founder, Jean Vanier, a Canadian who started L’Arche in 1964. Since 1988, when L’Arche Arnprior first came to this area, the community has had at its core three ‘group’ homes. In L’Arche, however, these are places of welcome to adults with and without developmental disabilities,who choose to share life together. A family home has also been a unique part of L’Arche Arnprior since the early ‘90s. A family home differs from our other L’Arche homes in that core members are invited to live with a family in that family’s own home, become integrated and experience the day-to-day life of that particular family. Currently we have two core members in a family home setting - Bob Delahaye and Pat Ryan - who are living with Ellard and Debbie Rueckwald. The following has been written by Debbie Rueckwald as she puts words to her thoughts about being a family home in L’Arche Arnprior.
L’Arche Arnprior members Bob Delahaye and Pat Ryan with Debbie and Ellard Rueckwald at whose family home they live. They will be attending this Saturday’s L’Arche Arnprior annual meeting at the St. John Chrysostum Church Hall beginning at 11 a.m.

Bob Delahaye and Pat Ryan when they moved in to the Rueckwalds. “I first became connected to L’Arche Arnprior in 1999, when I accepted a part-time secretarial position with their office. I was searching to make a change in my life at that particular time and I wanted a job that had meaning and purpose. “When I read L’Arche Arnprior’s job ad for a secretary in the local newspaper I felt a very certain need to apply for the job. “That was over 14 years ago, and I feel privileged to say that I am still here today. I have been so very blessed
38 Golf Club Rd, Sand Point 613-623-3234 www.arnpriorgolfclub.com
through all my years as a member of L’Arche Arnprior. “Although my initial reasons for becoming part of this community were to use my gifts and strengths to support others, I know that I have received far more than I have given. Through my various roles in L’Arche, I have been the giver and receiver of forgiveness, acceptance and patience. I have learned about belonging, commitment, mutual relationships, servant leadership and about the importance of celebration! “I have had many wise
teachers throughout the years as well. “I really appreciated the opportunities granted to me when I wanted to change roles in community. I began as the part-time office assistant and remained in that role for nine years. “I have also been a relief assistant in L’Arche Arnprior’s three homes, I was the house leader at the McLachlin Street home for four years, and for over a year now my husband and I have supported two wonderful gentlemen - Bob and Pat - in our L’Arche Fam-
ily Home. Bob and Pat have brought a lot of life and joy to our home. For me, Bob and Pat, the transition into our L’Arche Family Home was minimal - we already felt like family together. But for my husband and sons, the adjustment was more significant. It took time for my family to get used to having new members in our home who were part of our everyday life. “Together we are learning about our different personalities and how to support each other. “I am so grateful to everyone who supports the members and mission of L’Arche Arnprior either by serving on our board of directors, through friendships with our members, through monetary donations, through prayer, and simply through your kind words and warm smiles when we see you in and around our town.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to say a big ‘thank you’ to Reverend Don and the members of the White Lake United Church for not only welcoming us to their church, but for truly making us feel like part of their faithful family.” Please stay tuned for articles coming up over the next months profiling the two gentlemen - Pat and Bob - who live with Debbie and Ellard. If you would like to meet these two gentlemen and other members of the L’Arche community, join us at our AGM on June 21.

McNab students an arty bunch McNab Public School students proudly display their artwork for friends and family at an art show at the school June 10. Every class provided art works for the display in the gym and a silent art auction of student works raised money for the school’s art program. The students used high tech to help viewers understand the creative process. Each display had a scanning bar for Smart phones, allowing users to hear the students explain how the works were made. At left, Grade 7 student Duncan Robertson next to his art work, with his sister, Rebecca, Grade 5, with an artistic card she made. Above right, Jean McGregor and Sandie Neville by the Kindergarten’s monster display.

Uncle Lou’s extravagant gift brings tears of joy Lifestyle - We could hear the horn long before we could see the car. It was a horn like no other heard in all of Renfrew County. We knew it was Uncle Lou! He usually let Mother know

when he was coming. But sometimes, he just arrived, like it was an everyday occurrence to drive all the way from New York City just to visit us out on the farm. By the time his big black Buick pulled into the yard, driving down our long lane off the Northcote Side Road, Everett had run to open the gate wide, Audrey had replaced the Eaton’s catalogue for the orange wrapping papers in the outhouse, Mother had changed her apron to one spanking clean, and the rest of us circled the yard jumping up and down like jackrabbits. Even Father had stopped whatever he was doing in the barns, and joined us, ready to greet Uncle Lou and his black Buick with the big shiny brass American Eagle on the rad of the car. Mother, as usual, whenever her brother came from New York, was crying. It took me a long time to learn the difference between crying because you were sad or crying because you were overcome with joy. Mother was overcome with joy! Uncle Lou pulled the car up close to the back door of the house, and when he got out, he swung Mother around like she was a toy doll, and then he pumped Father’s hand, and then grabbed each of us into a bear hug, one that took my breath away. Uncle Lou never came empty-handed. And I tried not to make it look too obvious, but I couldn’t help looking into the back of the car, and there were boxes upon boxes, and in the front seat were brown paper bags. And I knew without a doubt, he had stopped in Renfrew and bought bags of oranges, bananas, grapes and a bag of lemons for Mother ... all things we would never dream of add-
MARY COOK Memories ing to our Saturday morning shopping list. It was like Christmas...right in the middle of summer. I couldn’t take my eyes off the back of the car. But Uncle Lou didn’t seem to be in any great hurry to unload his luggage or the boxes. He did reach in and take out the bags of fruit though, which caused Mother to shed another great pile of tears. Emerson, who loved cars, was walking around and around the Buick like it was made of gold. In fact, we all thought the big Eagle on the rad was pure gold, until Uncle Lou corrected us and said it was brass. Emerson was rubbing his hand over it and making clucking sounds of approval. “Sure like that bird,” he kept saying. With his arm tight around Mother’s waist, Uncle Lou headed into the house, and ordered the boys to unload the car. First to come out were the many boxes, some with Macy’s Department Store printed on them, others just plain boxes tied with ribbons and string. Then came Uncle Lou’s luggage. Just looking at his suitcases, all made of smooth tan cowhide, confirmed in my young mind once again, that Uncle Lou had to be the richest man in all of New York City. Uncle Lou also had a good memory. Without even opening the boxes, he knew exactly which one was to go to each of us.
Of course, for Mother, there were yards of beautiful silk material, and a purse made of genuine leather in bright red. I couldn’t imagine such luxury! My box held a beautiful pair of white ankle stockings, with real lace around the tops, just like bad Marguirite wore to the Northcote School, and books ... how I loved owning my very own books. Then, all that was left was a box which Uncle Lou kept apart from all the rest. He held it under his arm, and I wondered if he had brought something by mistake, because he didn’t look like he was in any hurry to hand it to someone. When we were finished with opening all the wonderful gifts, Uncle Lou finally handed Mother the box from under his arm. “It’s for the whole family,” he said, but Mother was to open it. Mother sat down on a kitchen chair with the box in her lap. We five children circled around her, and I could feel excitement right down to my toes. She seemed to take forever to untie the strings, and then she peered in the box, and was into the tears again. What she took out of the box almost caused the rest of us to cry along with her. There nestled in mounds of white tissue paper was a brass American Eagle exactly like the one on Uncle Lou’s big black Buick! Only this one was on a pedestal. Emerson, of course, wanted to hold it. But Mother had a
death-grasp on it, and she kept rubbing it with the tail of her white apron. Where to put it was the next question. Emerson, never short on ideas thought it could be attached to the hood of the old Model T. The old Model T, missing a door, painted two different colours, and with a rad that had to be opened every few miles to pour in more water! And so it was decided. It would sit on top of the ice box. The new ice box that Grandfather had bought from Barnett’s in Renfrew and now sat kittycornered in the kitchen. Audrey was told to take off the geranium plant, give the top a good wipe with a clean dishcloth, and when all that was done, Mother got up and as if she was laying a cornerstone at an historic building, she put the American brass eagle in the very centre of the ice box. Not a word was spoken as we stood there like mutes, admiring this new and wonderful addition to our old log house. There was some discussion about its being put on the twig table in the parlour with the bible, but Audrey pointed out that the parlour was seldom used, and no visitor would ever see it. And so it was decided. The American Eagle, identical to the one on Uncle Lou’s Buick, would have its home on our oak ice box, where it would be the first thing anyone would notice, coming in the kitchen. Yes, we all agreed. That’s where this treasure belonged, and where it stayed all the time we lived on the farm in Renfrew County. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Legion raising funds for new air conditioning Janet Tobio Arnprior Legion
Community – Things are happening as usual at the local Legion. A big bingo jackpot was won last week, there was a full house for hamburgers Friday and a great fun at the Jam session Friday night. Plans are in the making now for fundraising for the repair/replacement of the air conditioning units. Sounds like a hot summer ahead, so they want to be prepared. There’s entertainment two Saturdays per month and once a month there will be a meal at 6 p.m. and all proceeds go to the
Nothing can be used for the expenses at the Branch. So the bar sales, hall rentals, kitchen meals and catering are the main means of paying the bills. Plans are “in the works� for a big musical entertainment night in September. Watch for further information when plans are finalized. On the lighter side, congratulations to Legion members who were recognized for their years of service as Ontario volunteers: Tom Cloutier for 30 years, David Timms 25 years, Theresa Carron for 10 years and Doreen Nicholas for 5 years. Breakfast, lunch, bingo, jamin’, entertainment, dinner: you can almost move your bed in!

AC account. Feel free to make a donation any time you’re at the branch, as every little bit counts and it’s surprising how fast it will add up (they hope). Nothing else changes, the bills will be paid, donations will be made and our veterans will be looked after. I know we have mentioned this before, but as a reminder, the donations they make come from lottery type monies, and the poppy account. Any money raised by lottery accounts, bingo and the lottery ticket machine can only be used for donations, like the hospital, Seniors at Home, bursaries and awards.

REEVE RERUN Having not been afforded the opportunity of an interview, here are my views. Let me begin by saying that I am very proud of my “Irish” heritage – the 100+ years & 5 generations that my family has contributed to Arnprior. I am equally proud of my family, including my 4 grandchildren. My motivation for Involvement on Arnprior Council is simple – the Community & its 8,300 residents & an improved Future for all of us. I was raised knowing responsibility & am focused in my efforts to GIVE to Community. It has been a Privilege during this current term of Council to be part of the ”WE” process & to see what results it can bring about. This Council has met some difficult Challenges, including, but not limited to: a corporate restructuring & a complete financial review. The tasks were not without “Debate” but progress was made possible as “We” moved ahead. Arnprior has more to do such as: v
Infrastructure Improvement
v
Commercial Growth
v
Industrial Opportunity
We are Focused & on Track but do not be fooled, as these things take Huge Financial Commitments as well as Time. Our path is mapped & our Priorities set. Residents of Arnprior should be aware that we are part of a “2 TIER” Municipal Structure – The Town & The County. I urge all Ratepayers to get to know this System & the Values in it: it is much more than an exchange of Tax Dollars. As your Reeve it would be my pleasure to have conversations individually with you or in a group to discuss the System in more detail. It has been my pleasure to serve YOU @ both levels of this structure for the past 9yrs. My Focus has been our Community as a whole BUT it goes without saying “struggling young Families” & “our Seniors”, who have paid their dues, Require extra ATTENTION.
BARRY BLIER/SUBMITTED
Pineridge walkathon provides boost for CHEO The Pineridge Children’s Centre raised $1,500 for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario with its annual Walkathon. It is the 14th year the centre has raised funds for CHEO at telethon time. Pineridge owner Barry Blier notes the centre’s families, children and staff were once again very supportive of the worthy event. Shown in the back from left are Genevieve Blier, Barry Blier and Katie McEwen; and in the front are Alice Kilbreath, Landon Burnette, Alexia Mosher and Bridgette Blier.
Sincerely I thank you for the privilege of serving as your Reeve & would like to take this opportunity to ask for your continued support in the upcoming election. I am anxious to continue with the Job @ hand & put my knowledge to work for you. Publically I wish to thank Councillor Mark Wilmer for his 20 some years service to Arnprior Council, & wish him well as he moves on. Representing You Walter Stack. R0012760612

Pet store moves next to Metro in Arnprior Mall john.carter@metroland.com
Business – Patience has paid off for Rick’s Pet Store in Arnprior. After opening his fourth Valley outlet in November at the Arnprior Shopping Centre, owner Rick Lewis held off on holding a grand opening until he got the location he wanted. Rick’s Pet Store has moved this month to new premises in the mall just across from the Metro grocery store. To celebrate the moving into the old Ardene’s spot, which gives the pet store more room and especially important to them better storage space, Rick’s Pet Store is holding the long-awaited grand opening celebration this Saturday, June 21. Lewis and a friend will entertain in the parking lot and there will be festivities in the store all day. Strange as it seems, Lewis got into the pet business because his kidneys failed him. A former high level administrator in the high tech field, the company he worked for closed its Ottawa office and transferred him to the U.S. more than a decade ago. However, his kidneys were failing and he was relying on dialysis twice a week, so his doctor advised him against the move. Looking for a way to support his
family, Lewis turned to a hobby – actually two, marine fish and model railroads. Unable to travel freely because of the dialysis, he opened his first pet and hobby story in 2002 in his home town of Renfrew. After two years on dialysis, he received a kidney transplant with the donor being a customer. Offered his high tech job back, he was enjoying the pet store so much he decided to stay in the business and expand it. After researching the market, he opened stores in Petawawa and Pembroke and last fall decided there was enough of a need for an Arnprior outlet. He now employs 18 people in the Valley, including manager Julie Crogie and two parttime staff in Arnprior. Lewis says the success of his stores is based on the specialized service and lines they offer and the expertise of staff. “Everything we do, we do quite well,� he said. For instance, the stores sell marine fish (his specialty), birds, reptiles and pets such as rabbits and gerbils. The staff are “extremely knowledgeable� about the animals they sell, Lewis said, noting they all get extensive, ongoing training. But don’t come looking for dogs and cats at Rick’s. They refer people to the Humane Society shelters where there are plenty up for adop-

And don’t expect low quality pet supplies. Lewis tries to stock as much Canadian and American products as possible. “The closer to home, the better,� he said. For example, the stores stock only one line of good quality dog food that’s made in Ontario and Quebec, he said. The staff are also well-trained in the stores’ pet-related supplies,

Bowes Brothers pack Arnprior church, wow crowd Community – Arnprior’s Emmanuel Anglican Church hosted a Bowes Brothers concert to a sell-out crowd on Sunday, June 8. The Bowes Bothers are a well-known bluegrass band in the Ottawa Valley consisting of Ed, Rod, Andy and Clarence
(the father filling in for John) Bowes. Brad Scott provided lead instrumentals and some vocals. An incredible performance captured the audience as they entertained with their music, songs and story-telling followed with a standing ovation.
Cannon Roger Young, who entertained the crowd with a wide selection of hymns played on the church’s 150year-old Casavant organ, also introduced and welcomed the Bowes Brothers. A well-attended reception followed the show.

The Angels gathered near your bed so very close to you, For they knew the pain and suffering that you were going through. I thought about so many things, as I held ghtly to your hand. Oh, how I wished that you were strong and happy once again. But your eyes were looking homeward to that place beyond the sky, Where Jesus held His outstretched arms, it was me to say goodbye. I struggled with my selfish thoughts, for I wanted you to stay. So we could walk and talk again, like we did just yesterday. But Jesus knew the answer, and I knew He loved you so.

EDWARDS-ROSS, Eleanor (Frances)
- Eleanor was born on the family farm on the 8th of May, 1944 just outside of Cobden Ontario nestled away in the Ottawa Valley. From the day she was born, she was on the go, making people smile, laugh and touching hearts across Canada. Eleanor lived in many places, Vancouver, Ottawa, Foleyet and Timmins, but the Valley would always be her home. Her diverse careers matched her diverse character. Former Civilian Member of National Defense and RCMP, Foleyet Local Services Board, Interior Decorator/Seamstress, Cochrane Elder Abuse Awareness Coordinator, VCARS member, but most of all she will be remembered for her healing touch on so many people and hearts of our First Nation brothers and sisters along the James Bay and Hudson Bay Coastline where she worked as a Crisis Intervention and Natural Healing Support Worker. When she wasn’t doing this, she was helping her son on his log home, making jewelry, painting and taking pictures. Her artwork and her name would float around the Timmins and Muskoka art culture as faint gentle whisper, followed by a smile. Helping people, art and life was her passion, but her energy was the love of her family. Wife to Frederick John Ross of Foleyet/Timmins and loving mother and best friend to one of her greatest accomplishments she would say, but he denies it, her son Jason Ross of Muskoka. Later on in her life she would be reunited with her son Dale Kerr of Orillia and his lovely wife Elaine and two beautiful grandchildren, Thomas and Charlotte. Her love, smile, humour and hugs will be missed by her siblings: Robert Edwards (Dorothy) of Cobden, Alice Edwards (aka Yog) of Leduc AB and Sheila Edwards of Peterborough. Sister-In-Law to William Ross (Heather), Late George Ross (Christina), Kathy RossLak (Stephen), Marion Ross-Gay (Gabriel), Rita Challis (Wayne) Her warm heart filled hugs by her 11 nieces and nephews and 13 great nieces and nephews. Eleanor’s drive and strength will be missed by both the Ross and Edwards’s family, as it gave everyone an appreciation and acknowledgement that Eleanor’s strength was greater than life itself. This was admired by all the staff and doctors of Timmins District Hospital and Princess Margaret Hospital that she touched these past months. The family would like to thank them and her helpful spirits Christina Ross (McManus) and Kristine Grikis who helped in the fight. So come celebrate her love and energy with family and friends on Saturday, the 21st of June 2014, the first day of summer in Cobden Ontario. A service will be conducted at 3:00PM at ST. PAUL’S Anglican Church, 29 Crawford Street. Later that evening at 8:00PM, come join family and friends for a sendoff in Eleanor’s memory in true Irish fashion at the Cobden Legion Hall located at 43A Main St, Cobden. Casual attire for the Legion. To light a memorial candle, order flowers or make credit card online donations or condolences, please visit www. mironwilson.com.

(nee Stevenson) June 5, 1918 - June 14, 2014 MURDOCH Isabell Ilene (Stevenson) went to Heaven June 14. She wil be sadly missed by daughter Margaret (Jim) Tripp of BloomďŹ eld, son Bruce (Lesley) of Arnprior, grandchildren Stephen (Helen) Tripp, Lisa Tripp, Sarah and Catherine and great-grandchildren Jason and Kevin Mycroft, Ben and Abi Tripp, sister Joyce (Eddie) Moore, and brothers Earl (Karen) and Ellis Stevenson, extended family and many friends. She was predeceased by Henry, her beloved husband of 71 years, parents Harriet and Gordon Stevenson, sisters Lois, Beulah, Iva, and brothers George, Gerald and Clifford. Isabell was small in body but huge in personality. Always outgoing, cheerful, optimistic, kind and generous, she loved God and people. For many years, she collected funds for various charities, volunteered at the Hospital and Opportunity Shop, participated in the horticultural society and craft clubs, and supported Henry in his long political life. Her many interests included reading, sewing, gardening, painting, quilting, knitting and grand-parenting. She was wise but rarely gave advice, and possessed a wealth of family history and stories. She was a good listener and loyal. People knew she enjoyed and cared about them. She seemed to know everyone, and never stopped making new friends. A much loved and wonderful role model, she will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Arrangements by:

NUTRITION
Connected to your community
Daily stress and the negative effects it has on people Ian Harris RNT
Opinion - We are a nation that is overfed and undernourished. In a recent study, published in the Canadian Journal of Public Health, obesity rates are at an all-time high in Canada with Ontario in third place. Overall, at least onequarter of Canadian adults are over weight, obese or morbidly obese. As well, we are now seeing an increase in child obesity. Since the 1960s, our plate sizes have grown from 9” to 12” and some manufacturers are using centimetres instead of inches on their labelling to make the plate appear smaller. Our refrigerators have grown from 19.6 cubic feet to a whopping 22.5 cubic feet. We are nation of supersizing and it is showing up on our waistlines. The effects of obesity are indeed expensive: in 2008, they were estimated to cost the Canadian economy $4.6 billion, up about 20 per cent from 2000. Being obese can lead to cardiovascular disease, diabetes and certain cancers, among
Weight management, wellness and nutrition them breast, prostate, colorectal and pancreatic tumours. So much of who we are contributes to what we are. Genetic predisposition, upbringing, ethnicity, circumstances, etc. are all factors in obesity. Just like everybody else, I had an excuse, albeit a good one - my wife Tena had breast cancer and I was busy taking care of her. Before I lost 55 lb., I remember having absolutely no energy. I was flatulent, constantly bloated, especially after a meal and rarely if ever participated in any type of exercise. What was worse, my B12 plummeted to dangerously low levels, my cholesterol was increasing, I was very moody and constantly battling the blues. I realized that the foods I had come to love and enjoy were destroying me. Sluggish was my name and fat was my game. So what can we do to fight back? Stay away from pro-
cessed foods which contain high amounts of sugar, sodium and trans-fats. Stay away from fast food restaurant. Stay away from buffets. Lower your intake of animal proteins (dairy, meat and poultry products). Animal proteins are considered acidic and cause inflammation and are also high in saturated fats. Stay away from white sugar, white flour, and white rice, white pasta and keep sodium to a minimum. Exercise at least three times a week for a minimum of 30 minutes. Exercise not only helps flatten a bulging waistline, it also helps us manage stress and stress has been known to contribute to obesity.

He holds many other certification and specialties within nutrition and specializes in lifestyle and weight management.
