EMC news – Replacement workers will take over social services in the county while unionized employees continue to strike. The move to hire replacement workers, or scabs as they are called in union circles, is typically seen by labour dispute experts as an indication of a prolonged labour disruption. Renfrew county director of social services Dave Anderson won’t speculate on how long the 10-week strike will last, but made it clear that CUPE local 4989 is responsible for its own destiny. “We made them a settlement offer and they turned it down,” said Anderson. “I have a service to deliver and it’s our intention to deliver it.” There are no talks scheduled between the county and the 22 workers who provide social assistance to about 1,100 people. CUPE negotiator Amy Parker did not return repeated calls for an interview. But in

a July 16 press release she attempted “to clarify the record” over apparent comments made by county Coun. Peter Emon. Parker insists there was no deal in place last week. “What happened, in fact, was the county presented us with what they called their ‘final offer’, and demanded we take it to the members for a vote,” Parker said. “CUPE 4989 never had an agreement with the County of Renfrew, save and except for an agreement to take their offer back to the members for a vote. We warned them that their offer would not be accepted by the members. We were not listened to.” However, Emon denies having said a deal was signed, adding that the final offer of 12 per cent wage hikes over five years was a good one. “I think the offer was reasonable,” Emon said. “I hope negotiations restart because they provide a valuable service.” See HOPES Page 3

Development, communication priorities for new Arnprior CAO Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – Arnprior’s new top bureaucrat doesn’t begin work until Aug. 13, but he’s been logging hours during off days to help out. “I’m pretty excited about getting going,” said Michael Wildman, who is currently the chief administrative officer (CAO) at a municipality south of Kemptville. The town is behind on a number of fronts, having been without a CAO since Oct. 20, 2011, when Larry Donaldson was let go. A replacement was hired, but Kevin McLlwain quit for personal reasons on the day he was to begin. The latest hiring process produced many more high quality candidates than the first time around, Mayor David Reid said during a recent council meeting. Wildman, who specializes in development issues, brings expe-

rience from his time working at the City of Ottawa and more recently at the rural municipality of Edwardsburg-Cardinal. However, he is directing some of his energy toward hiring the town’s second most important bureaucrat. David Pollard intends to retire in the coming months after more than 20 years as treasurer. “Treasurer is key,” Wildman said, adding that the treasurer oversees the sustainability of long-term financial plans. Wildman is taking part in the interview process, which was similar to what he went through. He said he was impressed by the thoroughness; that he was interviewed for about eight hours in total and that council made it clear that certain skills are needed for the job. “I appreciated their candor.” See NEW CAO Page 4

Growing drought worries farmers, firefighters, residents on wells John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC news – As another week goes by with little or no rain, concerns continue to grow over the many adverse effects of what is turning into a long, hot summer. Fire danger is high, water levels are low and many farmers’ crops are in danger of becoming victims of drought. As well, health care officials are warning the most vulnerable, the very young and elderly, to stay out of the heat and keep hydrated. Homeowners on shallow wells are appealing to their neighbours to conserve water in an effort to prevent their

water sources from going dry. For some, including a few residents in the Pine Grove area of McNab-Braeside, the appeal has come too late. The Mississippi Valley Conservation Society instituted a Level 2 low water declaration Tuesday in the watershed, which encourages all residents to reduce water use by 20 per cent. In Almonte, where water comes from well, a strict lawn-garden watering ban went into place July 12. In Renfrew County, the Pembroke District Office of the Ministry of Natural Resources declared a Level 1 drought in the area Tuesday. See FARMERS MEET Page 7 R0011511020

Community mourns death of Arnprior student STAFF

EMC news – Family, friends and a community that rallied behind a 13-year-old Arnprior boy in his fight against leukemia are in mourning this week. Tyler ‘Ty’ McEnroe died Tuesday morning at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario “following a brave and courageous struggle with leukemia and its complications.” The Walter Zadow Public School student had been fighting a rare form of leukemia since being diagnosed in May 2011. Despite his affliction, he was an active child and impressed people with his positive attitude. He said he wanted to be a farmer and auctioneer like his grandfather Gerald Walsh. A well-supported benefit was held for the family last October. Hosted by his many family members in the Douglas and Cobden areas, it raised funds to help with the family’s travel and out-of-town living expenses during Tyler’s stays at CHEO and a Toronto hospital. Tyler is survived by his mother Laurie Selle and step-father Mike McBane of Arnprior, father Robert McEnroe of Kanata, big brother Braydon, and step-sisters Tina and Sarah McBane. He was the grandson of Ralph and Christine Selle of Douglas, Gerald and Barbara Wilson of Cobden, and Richard and Lillian McEnroe of Kanata. He will also be fondly remembered by many aunts, uncles, cousins and countless friends. “Other than life itself, Ty loved the outdoors,” said his family. “The farm, animals, the hunt camp and nature all brought great pleasure to Ty during his short but full life. “The past year and a half have been filled with an outpouring of support from a great extended community that Ty had the privilege to

Hopes for Ontario Works agreement dashed as dispute escalates Continued from front

Emon is a social worker as well as mayor of Greater Madawaska. He is in touch with some of the county’s clients, and hasn’t heard of anyone suffering because of the strike. The union maintains wages are not the sticking point, it’s the roll-back in long term disability benefits that matter most. In exchange for the about 2 per cent annual pay increase, the employees – who are paid between $38,000 and $43,000 or $52,000 and $59,000 annually – would have the benefits rolled back from 100 per cent employer-pay in year one of the five-year contract to 100 per

cent employee-pay in year five. The union counters by saying other non-union county employees get benefits paid by the employer in full, and that it wants to keep the status quo. Anderson said non-union staff are paid less, hence the benefits package is in place for attraction and retention purposes. The union points to wage increases for councillors and others at the county for a reason why their members should get one. Anderson said they are two different sets of circumstances, and that pointing to non-union wage increases is “a typical CUPE strategy.” Parker blames the county for why talks

haven’t resumed. “Immediately after our members rejected the county’s last offer, we informed their negotiators that we were available to bargain a fair settlement,” Parker said. “Instead of offering us bargaining dates, they have taken out helpwanted ads in local newspapers.” Anderson said the best offer is in the past. “The union was advised that if they failed to ratify, the employer would withdraw this entire proposal and any future deal would be far less.” He said he was “surprised and disappointed” by the union membership’s response. “It’s frustrating … we thought it was pretty

good or we wouldn’t have offered it,” he added. “Obviously we’d like to see our employees back to work.” The collective agreement between the county and CUPE expired Dec. 31, 2011. The job postings are advertised in several area newspapers this week, including the Arnprior Chronicle Guide EMC. The advertisements make it clear the hirings are for contract positions, not necessarily permanent, and that workers will have to cross a picket line. The County has indicated it received a large number of responses to the notices earlier this week in north end newspapers.

New top bureaucrat vows to protect ratepayer interests Continued from front

Wildman was familiar with Arnprior long before applying. He used to fish in areas up and down the Ottawa, and was an avid boater up until a few years ago. His passion now is a Harley Davidson motorcycle. His three sons have at least one foot out the door of the family home, so Wildman would like to move closer to Arnprior, but first his wife – also a planner – needs to find work in the area. Asked why he applied, Wildman signaled that working for a township with a low population, far from Ottawa, makes it difficult to attract developers. “It’s a slow pace of development, and my background is manager of development at the City of Ottawa.� He said the higher population density in Arnprior, and its close proximity to the city, makes it attractive to companies such as Walmart. As for the tension between those who want to maintain a small town feel and others who want more jobs and shopping opportunities, Wildman indicated that it is a false dichotomy. The residential side typically comes first. The new Callahan subdivision and others planned for both sides of the highway make sense for residents who work in the city but want to live in a small town, he said. The commercial side comes next. Wildman indicated there might even be some

IMPRESSED BY STAFF

The CAO’s position, held an unusually long time by Donaldson, is in need of “a rethinking and to provide leadership coordinating departments,� Wildman said. Some departments have broken down barriers to success on their own, but that a big picture approach is also needed. “I was very impressed with staff. Many are excited with what they do,� Wildman said, singling out waterworks supervisor Mike Trumble, and the administration staff. Another challenge will be uniting the business community with the town’s economic development branch. In the past strife stunted completion of a number of projects. Wildman, in Edwardsburg-Cardinal, brought together several focus groups – including youths, seniors, and business leaders – and had them draw up economic development priority lists. He said council may want to consider doing the same in Arnprior, then create an economic development strategy. “You can’t have it all, so you have to choose wisely for you priority list,� he said. “And it’s an eight- to 10-month process. But it gets people involved.� Wildman officially begins his work as Town of Arnprior CAO on Aug. 13.

ROOTING OUT INEFFICIENCIES

He did that during his first year at Edwardsburg-Cardinal when he reduced inefficiencies to the point where a negative tax increase was recorded for the first time in the township’s history. The idea of early and open communication also applies to union talks, he said. Arnprior went a long time recently without a contract for many of its unionized employees. Wildman, who was a union president in a

MICHAEL WILDMAN previous life, wants to establish good relations with the bargaining unit well in advance of contract talks. “I can talk the lingo and understand the value,� he said. “The first thing you need to do is establish a rapport and relationship with the union leader-

industrial development with good-paying jobs in the future, but wouldn’t elaborate. And yet he said it can all be done while maintaining the small town feel. “Making sure you embrace the heritage and small town feel is important,� he said. “It is doable.� On the controversial issue of service agreements with McNab-Braeside, which could come up again in another year, Wildman should have some understandings of the township’s challenges. He works in a township. However, downloading from upper levels of government along with tighter regulations means every municipality is squeezed. “It’s a struggle. Does it have to be confrontational? Hopefully not,� he said, adding that early dialoguing helps. But in the end: “You have to look out for the interests of ratepayers.�

Motorcross enthusiast urges council to set up special event permits John Carter

John.carter@metroland.com

EMC news – A McNab-Braeside resident urged council Tuesday to set up an event permit process to guide people who want to hold notfor-profit and community-sponsored events in the township. The request was made by Sheri Kopetoske, on behalf of Terry Thomson, after his plans to hold a motorcross fun day Saturday, July 14 on his Mill Ridge Road property was quashed by the township. An effort to provide Thomson with a temporary permit to allow him to go ahead with the event was rejected by council in a closed meeting last Thursday. The township had indicated he wasn’t properly zoned for a motorcross event and would have the bylaw officer call police to shut it down if he went ahead.

Burnstown joy-riders targeted

In her address to council during the public question period, Kopetoske said a special events permit process, along the lines offered by several other area municipalities, would “enable transparent, informed, consistent and equitable decisions for all special events.” It will establish an administrative process that is efficient for both the township and organizers, providing event details on logistics, security and safety measures taken, and can be used in conjunction with other township bylaws such as the noise by-law, she added. She said that implementing an effective and efficient process for residents would be a positive move forward for the township and bring it in line with many other Ontario municipalities. In response to her question on how long it would take to set up such a process, Mayor Mary Campbell said township CAO Noreen

Residents of Picket Hill Lane in Burnstown are fed up with drivers using their short road as a speedway. Council accepted a public works committee recommendation Tuesday to make the lane a 40 km-ph speed area and post signs there. Resident Jenny Hass had raised the issue with the committee.

Mellema is looking into the matter, including how other municipalities handle it, and will likely bring information to council at its Sept. 11 Planning Advisory Committee meeting. WAITING UNTIL FALL

Mellema added that if council decides to proceed with the consideration of a bylaw setting up the permit process, it likely won’t be ready for a vote until an October or November meeting. The timeline makes it unlikely Thomson can go ahead with any motorcross events he had been hoping to hold this year. Kopetoske said she has researched the issue and provided sample bylaws from other municipalities to Mellema. Thomson said he is pursuing the matter both for his own interests and on behalf of any resi-

The township has received complaints about drivers using it for joy-riding, said Mayor Mary Campbell. “They think it’s a cool hill and go bombing down there.” Some drivers are using it as a short cut, noted Coun. Aldene Styles. Residents have notified police, but the

dent who wants to hold a special event in the township. In earlier discussion about the motorcross track set up on Thomson’s large rural property, Campbell had expressed interest in looking into supporting it as an attraction for the McNab-Braeside, as well as providing a recreation program that didn’t have to be subsidized by the township. However, councillors urged her to be cautious, citing noise, environmental and liability concerns. However, councillors are being closemouthed about the recent developments, noting the special meeting held to discuss it was closed because it was a legal matter that would have identified a specific individual. There will be minutes of the meeting posted on the township website, but they will be very general, said Campbell.

offenders are going to fast for them to get their licence plates, she said. Furthermore, police are reluctant to act if the road speed isn’t posted, she added. Deputy Mayor Christine Blimkie said the township needed more consistency in the setting and posting of speed limits on its roads.

Farmers to meet today on weather’s effect on local economy Continued from front

R0011512922_0719

The declaration was based on data showing significantly lower than historical average rainfall amounts and surface water levels on lakes, rivers and streams. The County of Renfrew was invited to be part of the Water Response Team (WRT) that has been formed to co-ordinate information gathering and sharing about the drought situation and the various voluntary water conservation measures, which might be suggested to municipalities, residents and businesses. In response to the growing crisis, the Renfrew County Agricultural Economic Development Committee is hosting a special meeting today (Thursday) from 1:30 to 4 p.m. at the Admaston-Bromley township office with MNR district manager Rick Watchorn, representatives of Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and some of the agricultural sector representatives on the Water Response Team. At the meeting, participants will learn more about the water level data, the trends the levels are taking. The farmers want to “ensure that the WRT recognizes the severe threat this drought poses for agriculture here in the County of Renfrew and the impact it is having on local economy in general. The WRT, held its first meeting last Friday, is co-ordinated by the MNR and is made up of representatives from the Ontario ministries of environment and Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, as well as County municipalities and emergency services. It has been apparent for some time that the County of Renfrew is enduring a very dry early summer, notes the MNR. That, combined with a dryer than normal spring and a very low accumulation of snow this past winter, has created low surface water levels throughout the region and in surrounding eastern Ontario and western Quebec. “We have all noticed the effects of the low water levels on gardens,

lawns, lakes streams and rivers and we also recognize the increased risk of bush fires,” says the MNR in the release announcing the drought-related steps. “These low water levels also affect ground water levels in wells, hydro power production, recreation, tourism and cottage life - but farmers face the most severe consequences. CRISIS FOR FARMERS

“Since early spring farmers have recognized the looming crisis and have been very concerned about the significant damage this drought has been causing to crops, livestock and the economic viability of their farms. Pasture lands have dried out and are not producing adequate feed for livestock. Hay production is badly off with only a first cut assured for feed for this coming winter or sale to market, while the common second and third cuts are in doubt. “Many farmers are feeding hay intended for winter use to their livestock right now as the pastures are inadequate. Corn and grain crops have not developed and many of these are at risk of close to total loss for this growing season.” Farmer representatives at the Water Response Team (WRT) meeting made it clear to the rest of the members how desperate the situation has become. Without adequate hay and feed crops for the winter livestock, producers will be hard-pressed to keep their animals as they normally would and many beef herds may be dispersed, they warned. There is a very high likelihood that many beef and pork operators may not be able to justify re-investing for next year. “This would be a terrible blow to the approximately $79-million agribusiness sector of the County of Renfrew,” said Alastair Baird, Manager of Economic Development Services at the County. The 100 dairy producers in the County face similar challenges producing feed for their herds.

THE TOWNSHIP OF LANARK HIGHLANDS

Patricia Lonergan

Corn is suffering across Eastern Ontario as the drought deepens. Area farmers call it a disaster year, and safety authorities worry about fire. For more local reaction on the drought, see Page 9. An important aspect of the drought is that it will take a sustained period of rainfall over a number of weeks just to get ground and surface water levels back to adequate levels, say farmers. “A single rainfall will not be sufficient.” Another important issue is that even if rain falls, significant damage has been done to crops and they likely will not develop to maturity at this point in their growth cycle. MPP WORRIED

Meanwhile, Renfrew-NipissingPembroke MPP John Yakabuski says in his July column that he fears what the weather is doing for the farmers and that he has never seen such hot, dry weather in his adult lifetime. He compares the summer to that of 1965 when he was 8 years old. “I have spoken to a number of old timers and they don’t recall seeing it any worse than this either,” he writes. He said he hears frequently such comments from Valley people as: “My God it’s hot!”; “We need rain desperately!”; “I don’t ever remem-

ber it being this hot and dry!” The weather is certainly the number one topic of any conversation, he notes. “While these statements may sound like hyperbole, the reality is that we are experiencing something that could accurately be described as extreme. While it may be a wonderful summer to be at the cottage or at the beach, the effect it’s having on others is nothing short of devastating. None are more deeply affected than the hard working men and women that make their living in agriculture. This is certainly shaping up to be a very difficult year for them. “At this point, we all need to hope and pray for rain. I know we have been doing so in church for the past few weeks. Hopefully, the days ahead bring some relief.” WELLS RUNNING DRY

A Pine Grove resident, whose well dried up last week, is worried most well-owners don’t realize how their water use is impacting their neighbours’ supply. She admits she never gave much of a thought until

this summer about how her water use could affect others. “People with 150-foot wells dry up those of us with shallows wells. Using a sprinkler all day every day and pressure-washing homes when in a drought has a huge impact on the neighborhood,” she said. Most people are good about conserving water, so the issue is more one of awareness than people being selfish, she added. Her well has come back after being dry for a few days just enough provide for the basics. She went to the laundromat for the first time this weekend and met several other people there also trying to minimize the impact on their wells. If a well does dry up, it is not likely to recover after just one rainfall. It takes several slow, soaking rains for the water to filter through the ground. However, shallower wells may see their water levels rise more quickly than deeper ones with a return of rain. RIVER LEVELS LOW

Water levels and flows are well below average for this time of year on the main stem of the Ottawa River from Pembroke down to the Montreal region. Below normal precipitation during the past three months combined with the earliest spring freshet on record are the main reasons for below average water levels and flows throughout the Ottawa River watershed. Although absolute record low flows have not yet been reached, record low flows have been observed on most of the main tributaries of the Ottawa River for mid-July. Water from northern reservoirs is currently being used to help alleviate the low flow conditions. Without significant rainfall, flows on the main stem of the Ottawa River will continue to stay below normal. Residents can obtain current information on Ottawa River levels by calling 819-994-7079 or visiting www.ottawariver.ca.

We all need to be aware of drought dangers

A

s the region bakes in the midst of a particularly intense heat wave, we all need to be wary of the dangers posed by successive days of hot, dry weather. So far this year we’ve experienced more than two weeks worth of days where the mercury has risen above 30 C. We’ve seen fewer than 20 millimetres of rain in the past month. The Mississippi Valley and Rideau River Conservation Authorities

have issued a Level II low water conditions warning and Renfrew County has activated a water response team. And there have been brush fires breaking out due to the tinder-dry conditions. All of these factors mean residents need to be aware of the consequences of this ongoing heat wave. These things may seem obvious to some, but we’re currently experiencing conditions uncommon to this area, making it worthwhile to consider the

risks we’re currently facing. It’s often mentioned when heat or humidex warnings are issued that we should be mindful of the young, elderly and the infirm. They can’t handle extreme heat conditions like the rest of us, so be a good neighbour and family member and be sure your children, parents and grandparents, friends and neighbours are OK when the mercury spikes. Remember pets get hot too – make sure Rover has plenty of fresh

water and don’t leave him in the car on a hot day. That’s the easy part. When it comes to drought it’s a different story. We’re not really used to such an acute lack of rainfall. When things dry out, they become more likely to catch fire. A carelessly discarded cigarette butt on a parched lawn could cause a fire that quickly spreads to a home, as happened in Ottawa last week. Or in the country it could cause a forest fire with the

potential of wiping out several homes. Dry conditions aren’t just a fire danger. Low water levels in area rivers and the water table pose a threat to both the quantity and quality of the water we use. While it appears there is plenty of water flowing by in the Ottawa and Madawaska rivers, the drought dropping levels, affecting everything from recreation and fish habitat to power generation. The dry spell is also af-

fecting well levels, especially those with shallow wells. So think of your neighbours when considering whether to wash your car, drench your lawn or power wash your house in these arid conditions. As responsible citizens we need to stop and think every time we go to turn on a tap or flush a toilet. The challenges faced in a drought are just as daunting as those in an ice storm. Both are extreme weather occurrences posing threats to life and limb, requiring us all to be vigilant and look out for one another.

LETTERS

Let the kids skateboard on sidewalks To the Editor: I read the article regarding skateboards and such being banned in Arnprior (Chronicle Guide EMC, July 5). Being banned from the said “downtown core� is an issue in itself, never mind the entire town. Skateboards, rollerblades, coasters, bicycles, toy vehicles, etc. are a form of transportation, which does not pollute the air, gives physical exercise and gets a lot of our young people out of the house and into the outdoors. What about the person who gets their groceries, etc. on their bike (because that is their only means of transportation)? Do they need to park outside of the downtown core and carry their purchases through town before they get back to their bike before heading home? What about the grandmother going for a bike ride with her grandkids in the evening and can’t stop in at Shoppers, Klics or the Ice Shack to get a drink or ice cream anymore for fear of bylaw giving her a $65 fine. What about the kids that use a skateboard or rollerblades as their transportation to school? Do they need to leave 10 minutes earlier because they have to take a new route around the centre core to get to school? What about the three-year-old on a tricycle? Or Dad taking the little ones for a ride in the wagon? Are these banned as well? This town is for all of us, young, old and inbetween. It is the youth that will be making the town in the future. We need to give them respect in order for them to learn respect.

Street hockey has been taken away from many of them now. This is a disgrace as hockey is a part of Canadian Heritage. All my kids grew up playing street hockey and spent many hours outdoors. Rollerblading and skateboarding was a big part of their outdoor activities. Didn’t the Ontario Government spend big dollars on promoting ‘Participaction’ and now here in Arnprior it is being sabotaged. I was happy when I heard that the skateboard park was being improved. We need more things for the youth to do in this town. If the persons using the new skateboard park have to walk from one end of town to the other to get there, than I afraid that the park will not be used to its potential. Let them skateboard to the park regardless of where they live. Coun. Lyle Anderson stated that: “It’s a public safety issue.� Then none of us should be even walking on the sidewalks, as anyone could trip and fall. There are a lot more people using the sidewalks than skateboarding or rollerblading. We voted into council people that we thought would represent our thoughts and wishes. There are more important things around town that need to be looked after (like garbage on the streets and parking lots, vacant lots, etc.) rather than taking away from our youth once again. In my opinion the bylaw 5140-03 needs to be totally removed and the bylaw officer may need to review the bylaws.

people in these countries become precarious labourers on land they once owned, or they must leave the land and hope to find work elsewhere. In Canada, land-grabbing is facilitated by agriculture policies that lead to farmers becoming burdened with unsustainable debt loads. This is due in large part to Canada’s singleminded focus on expanding trade through increased exports instead of ensuring Canada has a sustainable and equitable food policy that allows us to be able to feed ourselves, and for our farmers to make a living. A key struggle for today’s farmers is to stay on the land and make it possible for the next generation of farmers to take their place. Dave Mackay, President Renfrew County National Farmers Union

This year the NFU and other like-minded organizations drew the world’s attention to the issue of land-grabbing where wealthy corporations and foreign countries purchase large tracts of farmland, taking control of the land out of the hands of local farmers, usually evicting the farmers and their communities. Such land is then used to grow crops for biofuels, to grow food for the exclusive use of the investor country’s population, to hold for speculative purposes or as a revenue stream for absentee investors.

Drought prompts authorities to issue warnings

Conservation group encourages residents to reduce water use by 20 per cent Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – It can finally be said with minimal irony in this part of the world: Hot enough for ya? Trouble is, those at Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVC) – where a level two of three low water conditions advisory was issued on July 17 - aren’t laughing about the weather. Level two means areas such as West Carleton are encountering minor water supply issues. “We are hoping people are aware this is a critical situation and will conserve,” said water management supervisor Gord Mountenay. “It will remain a difficult situation until

we get some rain.” Find tips on conserving water and daily water levels and flows on the MVC website at www.mvc.on.ca. At Mountain Creek Golf Club up near White Lake, for five weeks now workers have been pulled from other areas to help with watering, said club pro Jonathan Schaepper. “In this weather they are up at 3 a.m. to water,” he said. “And they have to do it by hose, because the sprinklers aren’t reliable in this wind.” The drought of 2012 has many on edge about everything from carelessly discarded cigarette butts to shallow wells running dry to getting enough glasses of water in the

day. It is like nothing Kinburn Farm Supplies owner John Herrick has ever seen before. “I’ve never seen it this dry. It better rain soon,” said Herrick, who’s been selling equipment and supplies to farmers for almost 30 years. “We need two or three inches of water and we need it now.” He said crops such as corn and soya are “a disaster” and that no amount of rain will bring some of them back. Even second and third cuts of hay are at risk. Others say the corn is two to three weeks ahead of normal growing time. And that hot summers come and go, just like cold winters. As for this year being a

one-off versus a new reality for farmers to deal with? Herrick treads carefully. “Who knows,” he said. Eli El-Chantiry also said he doesn’t know if this summer is a sign of climate change or a freak season. The West Car-

leton-March councillor is focused on making folks aware to pull over when they see a volunteer firefighter flashing the green light in their private vehicle. And that it was likely a cigarette that caused last week’s Moodie Drive brush

fire. “I know some people have a habit of throwing butts outside, but I hope to God people will think first,” he said. “And please, please out of courtesy please make room for the volunteer firefighters.”

EMC news – The drowning deaths of four more children last week in overheated Ontario and Quebec has prompted authorities to issue appeals for people to be safer around water. So far there have been 44 drowning deaths in Quebec this year and a dozen in Ontario this month. Ontario’s Chief Coroner, Dr. Andrew McCallum, reminded all Ontarians Tuesday that drowning deaths can be prevented when individuals act responsibly around water. While drowning deaths of children under the age of five have dropped significantly in recent years - from 13 in 2010 to just three in 2011 - alcohol remains a prevalent risk factor in many drowning deaths. In June 2011, the Office of the Chief Coroner released a report on accidental drowning deaths following a review of deaths that occurred between May and September 2010.\ Led by Dr. Bert Lauwers, Deputy Chief Coroner, the review revealed some startling statistics about alcohol and drowning deaths as well as the use of life jackets. The report pointed to four key recommendations for individuals: Learn to swim - swimming is a basic life skill that everyone should be taught regardless of age; Wear a lifejacket or a personal flotation device - even if you are a strong swimmer, as fatigue can set in very quickly; Adults should closely supervise children at all times around water. Children can drown quickly and quietly; Alcohol should be avoided when swimming or boating. Alcohol was a contributing factor in 67 per cent of the drowning deaths studied between 15-64 years of age. Overall, 44 per cent of drowning deaths were alcohol-related, 85 per cent of the drowning deaths reviewed were male, and 96 per cent of those operating boats who drowned were not wearing life jackets or personal flotation devices.

How nature’s creatures deal with the heat EMC lifestyle – This summer continues to be unbearably hot. The scorching sun has rendered lawns brown and has taller plants bowing in submission. Grumbles of air conditioners fill the air and local beaches are crammed with semi-naked people. Wild animals lack these options, yet most species seem to cope with the heat relatively well. How they stay cool involves a great variety of fascinating adaptations. Tiger Beetles are those beetles on sand beaches that run and fly short distances when disturbed. Sand, of course, becomes scorching hot under the sun’s glare. Tiger Beetles elevate their body away from the heat by stretching out their legs in a posture called “stilting.” When it is excessively hot, they retreat into their angled burrows and wait for the temperature to drop. Many dragonflies direct

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way their long abdomen away from the sun and some elevate it to cast shade on their head and thorax, the powerful middle section from which the wings and legs arise, in a posture called “obelisk.” They also pump more body liquid into their long abdomen, so that body heat is lost to the surrounding air. Honeybees use their wings as fans to direct hot air out of the hive and cooler air into it, which is why you smell honey more strongly on hot days in summer. Mammals and birds restrict

their activity to cooler times of day, taking siestas in shady locations during the hottest periods. Gray Squirrels, more commonly black than gray, stretch out motionless on tree limbs. By flattening out their body, its surface area is increased and more heat is shed. Foxes and Coyotes flatten out in shady sites and open their mouths and pant. Hot air leaving the mouth evaporates moisture in the mouth lining, cooling it. Hot blood is forced into the

nose to retain body heat. As birds do not sweat, panting is an even more important way of discarding body heat. They also droop their wings to increase the surface area through which heat is lost. Animals with large extremities use them to advantage in summer. Gulls and ducks pump more blood into their naked legs and feet to lose heat to the water. Beavers use their huge flat tails in the same way. Turkey Vultures pee on their legs to add evaporative

tongue, which also expels heat through evaporative cooling. PANTING

By hanging the tongue out the mouth, heat loss increases. Air is inhaled through the nose where it picks up body heat from blood vessels lining the nasal passages. Some of this air is shunted into the throat and back out the mouth, taking the heat with it. In winter, these animals breathe only through their

cooling to the heat loss process. On hot days animals gravitate to water to drink and bathe. Birdbaths are currently extremely popular with chipmunks and squirrels as well as birds. If you haven’t got one, fill a shallow dish or garbage can lid with water. You will soon have a Coney Island of activity in your backyard. The Nature Number is 613387-2503; email is mruntz@ start.ca.

MADAWASKA BOULEVARD COLLISION

THE JOB YOU

Mike Yeas

Two cars collided on Madawaska Boulevard Sunday afternoon, causing five people to be shaken up. Although some were taken to Arnprior hospital to be checked out, there were no major injuries reported.Witnesses say a vehicle pulled out of the Tim Hortons and was hit by a car coming down the boulevard. OPP, Paramedics and firefighters attended the scene. Arnprior OPP report one driver has been charged with failing to yield. Arnprior OPP Sgt. Gary Dougherty said officers have been focusing on the busy boulevard recently in response to an increased number of incidents and complaints from the area. The problems range from vandalism to a variety of traffic violations from speeding and not wearing a seat belt to distracted driving, he said. He noted the stretch where the crash happened is a 50 kmh zone. A police focus on Daniel Street seems to have reduced offences, so officers are hoping increased patrols will do the same for Madawaska Boulevard.

Trooper singer looks forward to a rockin’ show Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC entertainment – Trooper takes to the stage at the 158th annual Arnprior Fair on Friday, Aug. 10. Lead singer Ra McGuire – born Ramon Wayne in Vancouver, B.C. – answered five questions from the Chronicle Guide EMC via email during a recent exclusive interview. You travel extensively throughout the country, meeting lots of Canadians and learning about their communities. What are your thoughts on the state of the nation? You’re right, we’ve covered a lot of ground in Canada, and I love that we get to travel to the many cities and towns we do. We’ve been

from coast to coast to coast and everywhere in between! Everywhere we go we meet good folks who like to enjoy themselves. I’m proud to be a Canadian, and I’m proud to be in a band that’s developed such strong connections to Canadian culture. Who have you taken to the stage with that you admire most, and why? We’ve played with a lot of bands over the years - all of them fun/interesting/entertaining in their way. I really enjoyed our touring in the southern states with ZZ Top during the period when Tush was on the radio. They were like the Beatles down there at the time and I admired their overall casually rockin’ attitude and vibe.

The music business has undergone tremendous change over the years. What are your impressions of how it has evolved, and is rock and roll dead? Rock and roll is not dead, but there’s a chance that the music business, at least in the form that we came up with, might be. Things have changed a lot for music and musicians. I’m not convinced that we’ve arrived at the perfect alternative to the major labels yet, but I think we’re getting closer. It would be nice if, by the time the four labels finally find their

business model unsustainable, a new paradigm will have established itself. You’ve played Arnprior in the past. Any thoughts on our little piece of the pie? We were in Arnprior six years ago and we had a great time. The show was sold out and the audience was rockin’! We’re looking forward to returning. McGuire has performed with Trooper, along with Brian Smith, since 1975 when their first album was released. Trooper continues to perform up to 100 shows a year across Canada.

Legendary Canadian rock band Trooper are the hot shots headlining this year’s Arnprior Fair. Lead singer and author of most of the band’s timeless hits, Ra McGuire, reveals his favourite band to share the stage with in a Q&A.

Health centre seeks subjects for supplement study EMC lifestyle - Manuela Mueller-Code at the local Hahnemann Centre for Heilkunst is looking for volunteers to help her participate in an initiative that tests the effectiveness of ‘greens’ supplements for individual blood types. Any local results will help the research project being conducted by the Canadian International Heilkunst Association (CIHA). The conclusions will be made available to doctors of Medical Heilkunst and other practitioners and interested parties to help them recommend supplements that will be most helpful and supportive to their patients. Mueller-Code says the study is relatively simple for subjects. Four greens supplements are being tested over five days. There will be a brief live blood analysis on the first day to establish a base line. Then the participant will take one dose of a greens supplements every day for five days. The CIHA supplies the greens powders free, but there is no remuneration for participants. On the fifth day, there will be another live blood analysis to gather evidence of the changes. The report will be submitted to the CIHA and results will be published in the Journal of Medical Heilkunst. A live blood analysis means a little finger prick to draw the blood. There are no pre-requisites required, says Mueller-Code. “Regular lifestyles are supported and the continuation of normal habits as it relates to diet and nutrition are recommended during this five-day time frame.” She notes people on medications can participate unless their doctor has advised not to take any greens supplements. “If unsure, please ask your doctor or pharmacist if there might be a potential reaction to taking greens supple-

She is looking for all kinds of blood types and for people who don’t know their blood type, it will be identified at the first blood analysis. The study is planed for early August, so contact Mueller-Code at the Hahnemann Centre for Heilkunst as soon as possible if you would like to support this research project. “It promises to assist in making proper choices for specific supplements, which in turn will save money wasted on products while bringing your body the utmost healing,” she explains.

EMC news - Renfrew County council has approved a $40,000 addition, or 15 per cent hike, to the Opeongo Non-Profit Housing Corporation’s annual operating budget. Despite county council’s approval at its June 28 meeting, Admaston-Bromley Mayor Raye-Anne Briscoe asked the county’s social services director, Dave Anderson, if a report could be brought back to the social services committee with more detail about how the money will be spent and to ensure this isn’t just a band-aid approach. Anderson said he will provide such a report, likely by September. Briscoe also told county council that she supports the extra investment. Anderson said the county’s job, as service manager of the facility, is to ensure the non-profit corporation has the proper tools to run the 42-unit building on Vimy Blvd. South in Renfrew. The two-storey townhouses, which

were built in 1975, consist of 28 two-bedroom units and 14 three-bedroom units. Tenants pay their own electricity and natural gas costs. The corporation pays for water and sewer charges. However, the facilities aren’t quite revenue neutral because of a combination of factors. These include a high turnover rate of tenants and maintenance issues. These issues were discussed in detail at a June 12 meeting involving the chair, vice-chair and administrator of the Opeongo Non-Profit Housing Corporation, Renfrew County Housing Corporation general manager Carol Neill and Anderson. At the time, eight of the 42 units were said to be empty because maintenance and clean-out had not occurred. All building maintenance, including painting and cleaning, is done by the administrator. According to the social services committee summary of the situation, “between moveouts, transfers out of the complex, evictions, clean-up, rent arrears, interior repairs, collections and tribunal hearings, the non-profit corporation is unable to

have the units available for occupancy.” Difficulties, says the summary report, include the behaviour of vacating tenants “trash units and leave old possessions behind,” leaving the administrator with a week’s work to prepare a unit for re-occupancy. For the years 2010 through 2012, the County of Renfrew has provided a subsidy of $264,043 to $269,844. Before approving the $40,000 hike in operating subsidy, county councillors received a committee reported that said there was room in the county’s 2012 nonprofit housing budget of $1.6 million to support the additional investment. This conclusion was based on actual 2011 expenditures of $1,443,424. After 2012, financial allocations will be reviewed and benchmark allocations established for 2013. Anderson told the Chronicle Guide EMC the extra $40,000 will go toward painting, other building repairs, increasing maintenance staff hours, and providing administrative support when the administrator is on holidays.

The break-in may have gone unnoticed for a few days as the train set was the only item stolen Entry was made into the house through a second-storey window. OPP Constable Joe Roach is investigating. It was one of 230 calls responded to by the Renfrew OPP last week, including seven domestic disputes and several thefts in rural areas. Thieves stole two generators and gas from a Calabogie area cottage, a Johnson 9.9-hp outboard motor in Horton, a Mercury 15-hp boat motor from Reid’s Lake, and a red and white Minnelli 21-speed mountain bike from Cobden.

Two Tory MPPs – Norm Miller of Parry Sound-Muskoka and John Yakabuski of Renfew-Nipissing-Pembroke – were at old Nepean city hall on July 16 to deliver the Progressive Conservative Party’s message of how it would change the province’s arbitration system if the PCs were in power. R0011515432

EMC news - Two Tory MPPs made a campaign-style stop in Nepean on July 16 to affirm their desire to fix Ontario’s “broken” arbitration system. Although his party currently doesn’t have power to make the proposed changes, John Yakabuski, MPP for RenfewNipissing-Pembroke, said that under a minority Liberal government, his Progressive Conservative party must be prepared for an election at any time. As part of a series of campaign trail-type tours across the province, Yakabuski came to old Nepean city hall – Ben Franklin Place – on July 16 to present his party’s proposal to change the provincial rules for public sector salary arbitration. He said the recent provincial budget failed to address the issue of “ballooning” public sector wages that are on the verge of bankrupting the municipalities that are stuck paying the salaries, Yakabuski said. He said the message the PCs are getting from Ontario mayors is that the province “thumbs its nose” at municipalities and expects them to be able to raise property taxes to account for large public sector wage increases that have been arbitrated at the provincial level. The new Ontario Labour Relations Act rules proposed by PC leader Tim Hudak’s caucus would require arbitrators to ensure their decisions reflect the fiscal realities of the municipalities the decisions affect, including the cost of living and local budget con-

straints. The Liberal government did move to increase the speed and transparency of the arbitration process, said Sarah Petrevan, spokeswoman for Ottawa West-Nepean MPP Bob Chiarelli, but the Tories blocked their efforts. “This is what municipalities asked for and this is what we tried to do … Unfortunately we didn’t get any co-operation from the other parties on this budget initiative,” Petrevan wrote in an email. “The Conservatives decided to vote against the interest arbitration system changes that they campaigned on.” The Liberal budget initiative would have required arbitrators to provide written reasons demonstrating that they have given proper consideration to the statutory criteria, created deadlines for arbitration decisions and sent unsolved matters straight to the Labour Relations Board if they fail to meet the deadline, Petrevan wrote. Coming out with this proposal after failing to support an almost identical Liberal initiative amounts to “putting political games ahead of the interests of the Ontario public,” Petrevan wrote. Former finance critic and current Tory MPP Norm Miller was also on hand at the July 16 event to deliver an example from near his riding of Parry Sound-Muskoka. In Owen Sound, the cost of the city’s fire service is expected to rise to $4.2 million from $3.7 million last year as a result of retroactive benefits and wage increases awarded by an arbitrator, Miller said. Any city in Ontario could face similar increases under

Shirley Kelly Sales Representative

the province’s current arbitration system, Miller said. The PCs have also made promises to balance the budget by reducing the size and cost of government, lower taxes for businesses, reduce the number of provincial regulations by at least a third, prioritize “affordable energy” to create economic growth and modernize the apprenticeship system to create 200,000 new skilled trades jobs.

EMC sports – Lori McGrath is hoping to hit another homerun for CHEO. The Arnprior resident is gearing up to host her second annual slo-pitch tournament for the CHEO foundation this weekend (July 20-22) at the Dunrobin Community Centre. Last year the tournament was held in Pakenham, but she moved it to the larger Dunrobin venue because of the tremendous response she received from the area slo-pitch community. “Last year we had six teams. Now, I am up to 11 full teams. I can accept up to 12,� she says. “We increased the entry fee a little bit this year, but I got a lot of good feedback last year and people wanted to take part.� Last year’s tournament raised $2,550 for CHEO and this year registration fees alone have already raised $4,400 for the cause. Coupled with the fact the tournament will also include a home-run derby for men and longest hit for women at a cost of $5 per person, as well as a 50/50

draw and other draws, that amount is sure to climb. A special draw, with a prize courtesy of Play It Again Sports, will also be held. “It’s a family atmosphere,� McGrath notes. “Every person who goes into the tournament knows that we want every dollar raised going to CHEO. The players don’t care about not getting prize money. One aspect that sets this tournament apart from others is the fact all play comes to a halt Saturday around 12:30 p.m. so the home-run and hitting derbies can get underway. She believes this allows participants to cheer each other on and have a break in what can be a busy weekend of ball. While McGrath and her husband don’t have any children of their own, they have nieces and nephews who have had to visit CHEO and can appreciate the importance of having such a facility in their midst, and how people want to step up to contribute to CHEO. “It just amazes me how people can give and give to CHEO and then you ask

them for more and they are still willing to give,� McGrath admits. While eager participation plays a big role in the event’s success, she wouldn’t be anywhere without the generous support from sponsors and local businesses. The Dunrobin Community Association has donated the ball diamonds for this event, and has a team in the tournament, and businesses like Dunrobin Meat and Grocery and Jack and Faith’s No Frills are donated food items. Three local golf courses are also among the generous prize donors. “I am overwhelmed by the generosity of what I have been given,� she notes, referring to the variety of prizes that players will be eligible for. A beer garden will be on site during the weekend as well as a canteen for food Volunteers are still needed to assist in a variety of areas including acting as umpires, scorekeepers and ticket sellers. Any anyone wishing to donate to the event can still do so. To help out in any way, call McGrath at 613-317-0624.

Mountain Creek hosts major tournament John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

Submitted Mountain Creek Golf Club

Graham Gunn, centre, of the White Sands Golf Course and Practice Centre in Orleans is congratulated for winning an Ottawa PGA Summer Open tournament sponsored by TaylorMade/Adidas at Mountain Creek Golf Club July 16. With him are Chris Learmonth and John Kelly, whom he defeated in a playoff to win the tournament.

EMC sports – Graham Gunn of the White Sands Golf Club took a playoff to win a Canadian Professional Golf Association tournament at Mountain Creek near Arnprior Monday. About 50 from throughout Eastern Ontario participated. Gunn, a veteran instructor at the Orleans club, shot even-par 70s to tie for

first at the end of regulation play with Chris Learmonth of Deep River and John Kelly of Hylands. A bogie eliminated Kelly in the first playoff round, but Gunn and Learmonth battled until the fifth playoff hole. A bogie by Learmonth gave Gunn the Ottawa TaylorMade-Adidas Summer Open championship. Gunn won tournaments in Hawkesbury and Arnprior earlier in the year. Chris Barber of The Landings (Kingston) and Scott Mikkelsen of Pineview shot 71s. Mountain Creek pro Jonathan Schaepper shot a 74 and defending champion, Dave McDonald of the Arnprior Club, came in at 80. Dave Kalil of Ottawa Hunt won the senior division with a 70, two shots ahead of Terry Kolar. Schaepper said the combination of great greens and stiff wind made scoring very difficult. Many members were on hand to watch the event and their presence was much appreciated by all the pros, he said. Mountain Creek staff and the volunteers on the course who stuck it out through another hot summer day were thanked for their contributions as were the members who gave up their course for a few hours for the Ottawa area golf professionals.

Derek Dunn R0021510771

Mountain Creek pro Jonathan Schaepper and Arnprior Golf Club’s Dave McDonald are set to tee off in a professionals tournament Monday. Asked who was going to win it, McDonald, who took the title last year, said, “my money’s on the Mountain Creek pro.” But a local player didn’t win the event this year.

HISKO, DOUG

IN MEMORIAM JILL TURPIN

In loving memory of a dear sister and aunt who passed away July 19, 2004.

In loving memory of Doug who left us tragedy 25 years ago.

I thought of you with love today, But that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, And days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories, And your picture in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake, With which I’ll never part. God has you in His Keeping, I have you in my heart.

Down the path of memories, We gently tread to-day. Our loving thoughts are with you, As life goes on its way. We often think of you Doug, With love and sad regrets, For we who miss you dearly, Never will forget, Dad is with you now, And we are left behind. Rest in Peace.

If flowers grow in Heaven Lord, then pick a bunch for us, Place them in my Sister’s arms, And tell her they’re from us. Tell her that we love and miss her, And when she turns to smile, Place a kiss upon her cheek, And hold her for awhile. Forever in our hearts, Elaine, Jimmy and Family

Thank-you

Dom died at home on July 12, 2012 surrounded by his loving family after a very brief illness. He died, as he lived, with great courage, warmth and a constant focus on his family. Dom was a loving husband to Ruth Herrick (Boswell) for 50 years – years filled with love, companionship, activity and family. Dom was a loving father to Sandra (Rob Ashe) of Ottawa and Sally (Scott Kille) of Vancouver. He will be greatly missed by his cherished grandchildren, in whose lives he played a very active and loving role – Frances, Charlotte and Robbie Ashe, and Shaney and Sean Kille. Dom was born in Arnprior where his work ethic and family focus was formed growing up on the Herrick family farm. He will be greatly missed by his siblings Tish Stanton (Allan), Des (Doreen), Vince, Estelle Grenier (Ron), Phyllis Flegal (Doug), Mike (Lucy), and Cathy Ste Marie (Gerry). Dom was a very close brother-in-law to Donna and Jim Read, David and Nanci Boswell, Beth and Terry Gibeau, Walter and Louise Boswell, Laura and Ken Campbell, Allan and Cheryl Boswell, Bill Ryan, Donna Herrick and Suzanne Herrick-Lee. He was predeceased by his parents Katie and Jim Herrick, sister Lois Ryan, brothers Leonard and Pat, his mother-inlaw Ida Boswell and brother-in-law Bob Boswell. He is also survived by his father-in-law Walter Boswell Sr. His career was spent as a loyal member of the team at E.R. Fisher where Dom spent 45 years. Dom was past president of both the Better Business Bureau of Ottawa and the Ottawa Executives’ Association. For over 50 years, Dom enjoyed his touch-football, softball, hockey and curling “buddies”, with whom he participated vigorously until just a few weeks before his brief illness. He also loved his regular horseshoe gang. Special thanks to Dr. Louise Coulombe for her compassionate care in ensuring Dom’s journey was a comfortable one. Friends visited at the Pinecrest Visitation Centre, 2500 Baseline Road, Ottawa, on Sunday, July 15 from 2 to 5 p.m. and Monday, July 16 from 2 to 4 p.m. and from 7 to 9 p.m. Funeral Mass was celebrated at Canadian Martyrs Parish, 100 Main St., Ottawa on Tuesday, July 17 at 11:30 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre or the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.

EMC news – With stormy weather upon us and a Renfrew County man severely injured Tuesday, the Ontario Provincial Police reminds anyone who works outdoors or is caught outdoors during a lightning storm to take immediate cover. The OPP also warns parents and caregivers of young children not to allow them to play outside in the warm rain during an electrical storm. A swimmer is in serious condition in an Ottawa hospital after lightning hit the tree he had taken shelter under in Palmer Rapids in one of the thunder storms that crossed through the county Tuesday. Every year in Canada, six to 12 people are killed and another 60 to 70 persons are injured as a result of lightning strikes, according to Environment Canada. Everyone needs to have a safety plan in place regarding electrical storms and review it annually, advise police. Having a safety plan will help to reduce risk and injury caused by lightning. “There is no safe place to be outside,� caution police. “If you can hear thunder, it is your warning that you are within striking distance of lightning. “Immediately go to a well-constructed building or a fullyenclosed metal top vehicle. Do not run under a tree or to a shelter that isn’t grounded such as; a covered picnic shelter, carport, tent, baseball dugout, as well as other non-metal buildings (sheds and greenhouses).� The OPP says that people caught out in the open should remember that lightning generally strikes higher ground and prominent objects. Therefore, take shelter in low-lying areas such as valleys or ditches but watch for flooding. “If you are with a group of people in an open area such as a soccer pitch or other venue, spread out, crouch down on the balls of your feet immediately, with your feet together, place your arms around your knees and bend forward,� advise police. “Be the smallest size possible and minimize your contact with the ground. Don’t lie flat. “Lightning is extremely dangerous and caution must always be exercised to prevent injury and death. Summer safety doesn’t happen by accident.�

Family highly recommends Seniors At Home Care Coach service Liz Wall

Seniors At Home

EMC lifestyle – The annual campaign to ‘Keep the Wheels Turning’ on the Para Transit vehicle offered by Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program is well underway, Reaching out to the community for financial support of the Care Coach, the vital service offers families help as they look for ways to keep their loved-one’s independence alive. One such family is that of Valerie and Richard Werely of Arnprior. Valerie, her brother Brent, and their families mourned the loss of their father, Irvin Woermke, last Dec. 23. Their mother, Dorcas, a resident of the Grove Nursing Home in Arnprior, was left not just without her devoted husband of 63 years but without the independence he provided. Irvin Woermke played a huge part within the community. He was a veteran of the Second World War having served in the Royal Canadian Air Force, a board member of the Arnprior District Memorial Hospital, trustee on the Arnprior Public School Board, member of Legion Branch 174, and faithful servant at First Baptist Church. During the last months of his life, the Care Coach played a major role for him and his family, as the Para Transit service delivered him to the Renfrew Victoria Hospital for tri-weekly dialysis. Following his passing, the Care Coach provided the entire Woermke family with a much needed independence. Valerie Werely graciously shared her thoughts and that of her family on what the Care Coach now means to them and their mother, Dorcas Isobel Woermke (nee Scheel). “Over the past several months, the Care coach has come to play an important and much appreciated role in the life of our family as we offer support to our recently widowed mother who is a resident of The Grove Nursing Home. “Our dad was a wonderful father and a completely committed, loving and devoted husband to our mother as, together, they coped with her

Multiple Sclerosis over the past 33 years. We often marveled at the enjoyment they got out of ‘simple things’ and the true joy that was part of their days and years despite many daily challenges directly related to mom’s MS and dad’s seven years of tri-weekly dialysis treatments at the Renfrew Victoria Hospital. “One valuable asset that dad was able to provide for mom was a wheelchair-adapted-van that allowed them to attend various family and community events, grandchildren’s ballgames, graduations, school concerts, weddings, appointments, church, and Sunday trips home from The Grove “As dad’s body aged and eventually ‘wore out’, seemingly so did the van. Upon his passing, just before last Christmas, our life as a family changed a great deal and our mom’s life, in particular, changed dramatically ‌ no more daily visits from dad and, since the van was not able to be affordably repaired for further service, no more trips ‘here and there’, or so we thought. “That was until we called upon the Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program Inc and booked the service of the Care Coach to pick up mom at The Grove and facilitate her attendance at an outing that she wanted to attend, namely a monthly afternoon Seniors’ Tea offered at our church. Since that time, we have come to appreciate what a valuable service is being offered to us, as a family, right here in our own community. How fortunate we are to be able to rely upon the Care Coach to pick mom up and take her where she needs to go, whenever she needs to go! “Granted, we no longer have a completely flexible ‘say’ in our ‘comings and goings’. We need to arrange pick-up times to and from our destination and sometimes we have to be flexible with our plans and wishes, but, general speaking, we have been accommodated and looked after in a wonderful way. “Mom’s quality of life has been greatly enhanced by being able to get out into her com-

For this, we are very grateful for the service of the Care Coach! “In addition to the very minimal cost involved for the service provided, we have come to greatly appreciate the care taken by the very competent and compassionate driver. Colin (Borshevsky). who sees to mom’s safety and comfort as she is being transported. “Colin doesn’t just ‘drop her off at the door’, but makes certain that she safely arrives at her destination, even if this means assisting her in and out of an elevator and accompanying her to a particular spot at this destination. “We are free to be with her and arrive ‘unfrazzled’ by the logistics of getting her safely

Along with the telethon and a grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation, the Care Coach came to be. Now into its fourth year of operation and because it receives no government funding, local fundraising efforts to ‘Keep the Wheels Turning’ are so very, very important.

ORANGE LODGE SHOWS ITS COLOURS Theresa Fritz

The July 12 Orange Lodge parade, commemorating the Battle of Boyne in Ireland in 1690, was held in Carleton Place last week. Orange Lodges from across Eastern Ontario were represented, including Renfrew County. Right, King William III of Orange (King Billy) leads the way down Lake Avenue East.

Theresa Fritz

The Arnprior-McNab Pipes and Drums march down Lake Avenue East in Carleton Place during the Orange parade July 12. The event also included a worship service and a dinner at the community centre. Top left, flags of Queen Elizabeth II and the British Union Jack were front and centre during the parade. The Glorious 12th celebrates Protestant King William III of Orange’s victory over Catholic King James II in 1690. There were Orange Lodge parade entries from all over Eastern Ontario, including, at right, Renfrew County and Carleton County. As columnist Mary Cook notes below, the Orange Lodges of this region have been celebrating the ‘Glorious Twelfth’ with parades for a long time.

The Orange parade was a big deal, even for Catholics EMC lifestyle - It didn’t matter a whit that our family were Lutherans and that Mother still thought of herself as a Catholic – when the 12th of July rolled around, we practically closed down the farm and headed into Renfrew to celebrate with the hundreds of Orangemen who met once a year to observe the Glorious Twelfth. We would get up earlier than usual that day, so that we could finish the chores and be in town before the parade started. But long before we left the farm, there were preparations to make at home. We wouldn’t be back until late in the day, so the chores had to be done and the livestock tended to. We children would have a morning bath and then dressed in the clothes we would wear to church on Sundays. My sister Audrey and

Mother would start to pack the lunch early. Sandwiches of roast beef and sliced chicken, hard-boiled eggs and raisin cookies were all packed in 11-quart baskets lined with clean white flour-bag tea towels. Honey pails would be filled with big chunks of ice from the ice house and tea, made the night before and left sitting on the back of the stove, poured in. The parade always started at the fairgrounds, so that was where we headed with the old Model T. We always tried to park close to the gate, so we would have no trouble getting out when it was time to head home. We looked for a grassy spot, which we would claim for the day. Mother would have taken one or two quilts, and these would be spread out on the grass, our lunch on top and

Mary Cook’s Memories BY MARY COOK

another quilt wrapped around the lunch and tea to keep everything as cold as possible. For reasons which escape me today, we never got sick from food poisoning from a spoiled lunch. Back then, you could go off and leave your belongings on your chosen spot without fear of it being stolen. Often there would be a midway and we would wander through the fairgrounds, knowing we could never take advantage of the rides or candy floss - there would be no money for such frivolities and we considered ourselves

lucky just to be in Renfrew for the parade. It seemed to take forever for the bands to get lined up in proper order and as soon as they started to play and march out of the fair grounds, every eye would be turned towards the place where King Billy would be in the lineup. He always rode a white horse and its tail would have been braided for the day with yellow and blue ribbons flying out behind. Everyone roared and clapped, even those who had absolutely no connection with the Orangemen. We usually knew who

King Billy was because often he turned out to be a neighbour, but for that day he was someone very special and our hands ached from clapping when he passed by us on his white horse. Hundreds of people, not even part of the parade, dressed for the occasion. White suits, white dresses, white shoes and stockings and brilliant orange and blue sashes swathed across their chests. For years I begged Mother to let me go as an Orangeman, but to no avail - she told me to be satisfied to be at the parade. Back then, the true significance of the day meant little to us children. We had Catholic neighbours who took the day off from farming just as we did. On that day, it was the parade that mattered, not which

church you belonged to. We children thought we were pretty lucky to be able to go into Renfrew for the day, and leave the day chores behind us. We would wait until the entire parade passed the spot we had chosen to sit, which often took more than an hour. And then Mother would take the quilts off the basket of lunch and we would eat like we hadn’t had a meal in days. It always tasted better coming out of the basket than it did when it was just eaten around the old pine table in the kitchen back on the farm in Northcote. I could never figure that out and once I asked my older and much wiser sister Audrey, how that could be. Her answer made perfect sense to me. “Everything always tastes better when you are at a parade,” she’d say.

New coupon exchange group bonds over bargains Sherry Haaima sherry.haaima@metroland.com

EMC lifestyle - Super shopper Nancy Thompson once walked out of Walmart with a whole chicken and salad for dinner and a $200 gazebo, all for the grand total of 34 cents. Thompson, who formed the West Carleton Coupon Exchange Group earlier this year, said she was thrilled with the deal, which she scored thanks to coupons and a Walmart Mastercard points system. Thompson has learned the ropes of extreme couponing, a phenomenon that is growing in popularity and is described by many and profiled in a television series, and has made a huge difference in her family’s budget. “I was always a savvy shopper,” said Thompson, who lives with her husband and two children near Middleville, and does most of her main shopping in Carleton Place, particularly in Walmart. Enjoying the satisfaction of a good deal is something she comes by honestly. “I spent a lot of time growing up with my grandma, who raised her family during the Depression. She was always finding ways to save,” said Thompson. And since she retired from the government due to a medical issue, she has the time to do the research and online

N a n c y Thompson has cut her grocery bill by almost 70 per cent. At left, Thompson shows off her coupon books. Submitted

work required for extreme couponing. The first meeting of the coupon exchange was held in March and while about 10 members make up the group, only about three regularly attend meetings and Thompson hopes that will change as people learn of the huge savings and fun that is to be had. “We’re still a tiny little group,” she said. “Essentially, what I’m trying to do is educate people about coupons and show them that you can get things in Canada for free.” The group offers the chance for coupon aficionados to trade coupons, network and share tips about savings and

price matching. Price matching, which is a practice some stores adopt of offering the same sales as their competition upon presentation of the flyer or coupon, is a great way to get deals, said Thompson. And even with price matching, the deals at some stores, including Walmart, can be better, so the shopper must be aware of going prices. “You still have to dot your i’s and cross your t’s,” said Thompson. “What you really benefit from is when stores have so-called super deals and you have coupons on top of that.” The proof is in the savings. “When I started what my

family calls ‘extreme couponing’ I was spending on average $800-$1,000 per month on groceries. Now when I’m down on supplies and if I’m really doing a big stockup, I might spend $350 per month. It has really benefitted us significantly,” said Thompson. And it can’t be often that Thompson’s kids look in the fridge and complain there’s nothing to eat. With two freezers completely full and a stock room filled with food and other household supplies, the family is well prepared for just about anything. And how do store officials and cashiers react when they see her coming?

“They’re pretty good,” says Thompson. “And I respect the rules. If it says one coupon per customer, that’s what I do. They are quite receptive. In my area, I’m not the only one who does it.” Checkout requires patience, however, as evidenced at her weekly trip to the shops over the weekend. “When I went on Saturday it took about an hour to go through the cash,” she said. SAVING TIPS

In terms of tips for the buying public, Thompson reminds shoppers that cereal boxes in particular carry coupons for

free items like bananas. Hamburger helper, also, has coupons for $3 off ground beef, so your meat is free. Another little known tip, said Thompson, is the Scanning Code of Practice (SCOP), a voluntary code to which nearly every major retailer in Canada adheres. If the scanned price of a non-price item is higher than the shelf price or any other displayed price, the customer is entitled to receive the first item free, up to a $10 maximum. “They have to give it to you for free,” said Thompson. Among the websites and resources that have been helpful to those in the group are the EMC’s monthly coupon insert Smart Source, and websaver. ca, save.ca and gocoupons.ca. Also, said Thompson, Smart Canucks is a fabulous resource for coupon information, networking and fabulous people. MEETING

For now, the group usually meets at Buster’s in Carleton Place, but as members join the meetings can be changed to suit everyone’s location at some point. Group members grab a coffee or pop and sit down to get to business. “It’s a social time, as well,” said Thompson. The next meeting is July 25. To find out more, email jasperanchar@yahoo.ca.

Booster program classes held at A.J. Charbonneau EMC lifestyle – There are 28 students participating in the Renfrew County public school board’s summer Booster Program at A.J. Charbonneau school this summer. There are 190 students in the program county-wide at eight schools. The program, in its 31st year, provides Grade 1 and 2 students extra

help with literacy and/or numeracy issues. Teachers use engaging, motivational and purposeful activities while incorporating strategies to accommodate the needs of individual students in the morning classes. Teachers note that some students have all the tools to improve their lit-

eracy but sometimes just need something to “click� to put it all together. Teachers will recommend the program to parents of Grade 1 and 2 students who the educators think will benefit from the two-week program. Many students in past year have shown dramatic improvement in literacy and numeracy understanding.

My View From Island View

Boredom So I was giving some thought to boredom. For as long as I can remember, ďŹ ghting boredom has been a large part of my life. To take action, I have created an extensive list of items to do in order to prevent boredom from setting in. When I looked up the deďŹ nition for boredom on the internet it was described as an emotional state experienced when an individual is not interested in their surroundings or available activities. It was also deďŹ ned as an unpleasant state in which the individual feels a great lack of interest in things and has difďŹ culty concentrating on activities. I get so disgusted with myself when I feel boredom settling in, even when I have so much to accomplish. I am able bodied and have boundless energy. I started to think about what it must be like for older adults who may not be so energetic or mobile and wondered how they cope with boredom. For many older adults, boredom can be a huge quality of life issue that can lead to depression which is hard to climb out of when you are in the pit of such negative emotions. No one likes to be bored. It can create feelings of worthlessness and intense restlessness which can be very frustrating. For people who are caregivers, preventing boredom in their loved ones is best tackled before it takes hold. Encouraging our older friends to develop new

interests can be one idea. You don’t have to be young to ďŹ nd new things to do. It has been shown that stimulating the mind by learning new skills can promote new neural cell growth and improve concentration. We, who care for older adults, can help ward off boredom by introducing new activities such as brain teasers, physical activity and social interaction. The residents at Island View have led productive and interesting lives but some may now ďŹ nd themselves facing physical challenges. These residents are at risk of boredom and feelings of worthlessness, which can lead to depression. Preventing these feelings should be a concern of retirement homes that give care and provide a home to older adults. But do you know what is really interesting? Of all the residents that I spoke to at Island View, not one of them told me that it is OUR responsibility to keep them entertained! Wellwood stated that his interests are self propelled and it is his responsibility to keep himself interested in life. He takes a deep, genuine interest in those around him to keep sharp. He said “boredom is a state of mind, if you don’t understand somethingâ€ŚďŹ gure it out to keep your mind active.â€? Liz refuses to watch TV during the day.

Instead, she participates in most activities and when there is down time, she chooses to read to keep her mind fresh and alive. Liz shared with me, “if you don’t want to do anything you just end up staying in your room and pouting.� Eddie told me that people have commented to him, “you must be bored in a place like that,� yet he’s never uninterested in life. Gary loves watching sports and Marilyn said, “I am too busy to be bored.�

Always lessons to be learned in the kitchen EMC lifestyle - They say that you should never stop learning. Acquiring a new skill or adding to what you already know is supposed to exercise the brain and keep us younger. What they don’t say is that it’s often fun to learn something new. And sometimes there’s an added bonus when what you’ve learned makes life easier, more pleasant or just more interesting. I seem to be on a learning curve. Nothing major, I haven’t signed up for classes, just a lot of everyday learning experiences. On a domestic level, it seems this year most of our kitchen appliances reached the age of 25 plus years and had to be replaced. My stove is digital and I’m beginning to think it may be smarter than me. But the most important thing I’ve learned this summer is not how to use Internet auctions or how to operate a new electronic appliance. Laugh if you like, but I learned how to get the onion smell off my fingers after cutting up onions! Salads, onions. soups, onions, stews, onions. If you cook, you know what it’s like to have fingers smelling of onion. The solution is so simple that you won’t believe it until you try it. Take an everyday stainless steel spoon out of your kitchen drawer, hold it under cold running water, and rub your fingers over it as if you were trying to clean the spoon. In less than a minute, the onion odor will be totally gone. I don’t know why, but it works. So now you can go ahead and make this week’s recipe for Veggie Pasta Salad, and you won’t have to live with onion-breath fingers. For this salad, I use the twisted pasta called rotini and I buy the package with three colors of pasta. It makes a change from the usual

white pasta salad. VEGGIE PASTA SALAD

2 cups rotini, three-colored 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper 2 slices red onion, chopped 1 cup frozen peas 1 cup (more or less) small broccoli florets 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup bottled coleslaw dressing To minimize the heat in the kitchen, here’s how to cook the pasta. Bring a pot of water to boil, add the pasta, stir it, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let it sit on the back of the stove, stirring once or twice, until the pasta is cooked. This takes 20 to 30 minutes. You don’t need the stove element on while the pasta cooks, so you have a cooler kitchen. Now, here’s another shortcut that I’ve discovered. To thaw the frozen peas, measure them into a large sieve or colander. When the pasta is finished cooking, pour the pasta and hot cooking water into the sieve over the peas. Rinse with cold water. Voila! Instant thawed peas. Add the remaining ingredients and refrigerate for an hour to let the flavours blend. This salad has a slightly sweet flavour from the combination of mayonnaise and bottled coleslaw dressing. It’s very tasty. The ingredients can be varied by using other vegetables, but aim for colour as well as flavour. Serves four to six.

She is a very sweet, beautiful senior cat with a wonderful disposition that would love to ďŹ nd a retirement home. Taya is very friendly, she loves to be petted and loves attention. She lived with dogs and enjoys their company, she tolerates other cats but prefers her own space. Taya is a social girl that would love to ďŹ nd a quiet indoor only home. She will require a home where she will receive regular grooming to keep her from matting. Please consider giving this sweet girl a new home.

Eight summer pet safety tips EMC lifestyle – Tip #1Protection from Heat in Cars: Please use common sense and take your pets with you, or make sure that adequate ventilation exists when and where appropriate. Bear in mind that cars can heat up quickly, even with the windows partially open Tip #2 - Proper Outdoor Housing and Water: If dogs or cats are kept outdoors, please keep them in a shaded area with adequate water. Make certain pets can’t get tangled up with chains that might endanger them or restrict their movement. Heat strokes and other tragic results can be prevented by awareness Tip #3 - Protection from Over-Exertion: Over-exertion resulting in problems could occur when jogging or engaging in other activities. On hotter days, monitor your pet’s activity and be careful to not over-exert them. Watch for signs of heat stress, excessive panting, disorientation, staring or anxious expression and weakness. Bring your pet to a cool area, gradually lower your pets temperature by immersing his/her paws in cold water or hosing him/her down and call your veterinarian immediately Tip #4 - Hot Asphalt and Feet Protection: In summer, asphalt can burn your pet’s paws; keep to the sidewalk or grass

IAN STUPP Tip #5 - Swimming: Most dogs enjoy swimming, but some cannot swim, and others may hate the water. Be conscious of your dog’s preferences and skills before trying to make him swim. If you’re swimming for the ďŹ rst time with your dog, start in shallow water and coax him in by calling his name. Encourage him with toys or treats. Or, let him follow another experienced dog he is friendly with. Never throw your dog into the water. If your dog begins to paddle with his front legs, lift his hind legs and help him oat. He should quickly catch on and keep his back end up. Don’t let your dog overdo it, swimming is very hard work and he may tire quickly. If you have your own pool, make sure your dog knows where the stairs or ladder are located.

Be sure that pool covers are ďŹ rmly in place; dogs have been known to slip in under openings in the covers and drown. Never leave your dog unattended in water Tip #6 - Safety in Travel: For air travel, put icepacks or an ice blanket in the dog’s crate. (Two-litre soft drink bottles ďŹ lled with water and frozen work well.) Provide a container of fresh water, as well as a container of frozen water that will thaw over the course of the trip. Traveling by car, keep your dog cool in the car by putting icepacks in his crate. Make sure the crate is well ventilated. Put a sunshade on your car windows. Bring along fresh water and a bowl, and a tarp or tent so you can set up a shady spot when you stop. Keep a spray bottle ďŹ lled with water to spritz on your dog to cool him down. Travelling by RV, a dog’s safety should not depend on the air conditioning and generator systems in an RV or motor home. These devices can malfunction, with tragic results Tip #7 - Parasite Prevention: Check with your vet to see if your pets should be taking heartworm prevention medication.

Jacob Lyon presents $200 to Arnprior Humane Society vice-president Gail Mifflin as his brother Andrew and father Andy look on. Jacob asked for donations to the local animal shelter instead of birthday presents. The Lyon family also donated food, toys and a cat playhouse, which was attracting interest from both cats and dogs.

Ten-year-old gives up birthday presents for Humane Society John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC news – The Arnprior Humane Society was celebrating too when Jacob Lyon marked his 10th birthday July 4. Instead of receiving the usual birthday presents from those attending his party, Jacob asked his friends to bring donations to the Arnprior animal shelter instead. Asked why he made the request, Jacob said, “it’s because I want to donate to animals in need.” He knows all about pets, having a German shepherd, Reagan, and pet fish at home. He also helps occasionally in the Almonte Pet Valu store run by his father, Andy, so he has a good working knowledge of the needs of pets. His father offered to match the donations, so

when $100 was raised in the form of birthday gifts, another $100 was added to make the total $200. The Lyons also donated toys, food and a cat playhouse along with the cash contribution. Andy Lyon said the store usually donates to the Lanark Animal Welfare Society, so it was good to donate to their area’s shelter (the family lives in McNab-Braeside). “This is awesome,” said Humane Society vice-president Gail Mifflin. “It’s so nice to see kids involved in helping animals this way … and understanding the need for a shelter and volunteers.” The food and toys are much needed, she said, noting the shelter has more animals (about 155 cats and 20 dogs) than it ever has. “And we love that cat playhouse,” she added.

Pet Talk: Summer vacation safety tips Continued from Page 60

Heartworm, transmitted by a bite from an infected mosquito, can be fatal if not treated. Both dogs and cats are at increased risk of contracting heartworm during summer. It would also be prudent to protect your pet from ticks. Tip #8 - Plan Ahead for Summer Vacations: If you’re not taking your dog or cat with you, arrange for the proper care with people

you know and trust or with facilities that are reputable. This will protect your pet from careless or irresponsible people and bring about much peace of mind.

Submitted Ramsay WI

The Ramsay Women’s Institute serves afternoon tea Wednesdays and Saturdays at the Mill of Kintail. The service has given members many chances to share stories of the area with visitors from all over the world. Ramsay Women’s Institutes invites everyone to enjoy

old-fashioned hospitality in a lovely setting by the Indian River. For further information, call Mary Lumsden at 613256-9090.

EMC events – The North Lanark Agricultural Society (NLAS) directors have been hard at work for months, planning events to entertain and educate families at the annual Almonte Fair. The theme for this year’s fair, set for this weekend, July 20-22, is “Christmas in July,” so the craft section will feature many ideas for Christmas creations, but it will be difficult to get a volunteer to wear a Santa suit in the middle of July. The prize book is available at local stores where agricultural products and sewing and craft supplies are sold, or you can call Marilyn Snedden at 613-256-3130 or Norma Paul at 613-256-9250. Once again the demolition derby will be Friday night’s main show. Saturday night features the outhouse races, Square Dancing Tractors from Renfrew County, and the Dirty Dishes – a trio of young country, bluegrass and gospel singers. Riding Shotgun and The Stool Pigeons will also provide music Friday and Saturday nights in the beer garden. On Sunday, Cow Plop Bingo and the Pet Show are in addition to the heavy horse show at the grandstand. New this year in the main hall is Papa’s Trains, which promises to keep the children enthralled with an interactive experience driving Thomas the Tank Engine on a miniature railroad.

In keeping with the Christmas theme, the demonstration area will have Ria Ralph creating wreaths, and an area for children to make cookies and decorations along with spinners and weavers. Also new is a Dunk the Diver tank, to cool off the volunteers persuading people to part with their money. A Horse Shoe Tournament on Saturday will compliment the light horse, sheep, pigeon, dairy and beef shows. Bringing the farm to town remains the focus of the fair. The new Education Barn will have more space for exhibits and demonstrations. There will be children’s games Saturday along with the Conklin Midway and Little Ray’s Reptiles. Advance sales of the midway bracelets will be available. The exhibits in the main hall – farm produce and articles created by skilful hands – are key to any agricultural fair, along with museums and commercial exhibits. For further information, visit www.almontefair.com. Volunteers are needed at fair time, including students who need volunteer hours. Tasks include working with children and animals in the hall or education barn, as well as helping in the office where computer skills are a bonus.

EMC events – Members of the Ramsay Women’s Institute are serving homemade loaves and tea or lemonade on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 2 to 4 p.m. in July and August on the lawn beside the Mill of Kintail. The tradition was established in 1958. Major Jamie Leys and his wife Irene opened the Mill of Kintail to visitors so they could see the work of local sculptor Robert Tait McKenzie. Irene asked fellow WI members to serve an afternoon tea reminiscent of her English heritage. Members agreed and this custom has provided pleasure to visitors and WI members alike for more than 50 years. Now the property is owned by the Mississippi Valley Conservation and there are extensive hiking trails, a playground and the museum to enjoy. Members volunteer their time to bake and serve the refreshments. The money raised goes back into the community.
