News – A former Arnprior resident who at one time volunteered for the Scouting movement in town is facing several sexual assault charges related to his service with Ottawa Scouts. Scott Graham Stanley, 30, who now lives in Ottawa, was arrested last Thursday, July 25. Stanley lived in Arnprior during his teenaged years and graduated from Arnprior District High School. The Ottawa Police Service Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Section reported last week they had charged the man with numerous offences in relation to incidents that occurred while he was working as a volunteer with Scouts Canada. However, the charges stem from his service in the Ottawa area, not when he was a leader for Beavers and Cub Scouts in Arnprior some dozen years ago.

Entertainment – Arnprior Fair organizers are ready to roll out the 159th edition of the annual event and it’s shaping up to be a great one with high profile entertainers and two demolition derbies. The focus this year for the Arnprior Agricultural Society has been strengthening the fair. “We’re trying to get the wheels back on this wagon,” said past president and director Brian Majaury (for fair event details, see Page 2). The four-day event kicks off Aug. 8 with a new fea-

ture that aims to make the fair an unforgettable one for individuals with special needs. Majaury said the idea came via fair director Sue Clark who knew the Gloucester Fair has a similar event. “From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on opening day there will be free rides and games for people with special needs,” he said. Whether it’s youth or adults or their special needs are physical or developmental – all are welcome, he added. The ag society is pleased to be offering this for the first time ever, said Majaury.

‘Throw it down’ with Tim Hicks Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

He and collaborators have been writing the material for a couple years and spent the better part of a year recording it. “Once we had pieced it all together I realized it was a bit of a party record and so we decided to call it Throw Down,” he said. “We can’t wait to get out in front of crowds across Canada.” Hicks had been doing bar gigs up until the end of May and said as he was putting the record together he was keeping that scene in mind. “I was sort of thinking to myself, the songs have to be good enough to stand up at midnight at say, the Crazy Horse in Kanata,” he said. He would sneak an original song into the

Entertainment – Tim Hicks is ready to party in Arnprior. “Just come and throw it down and have a good time with us,” said the country musician, who just recently received a Canadian Country Music Award Rising Star nomination and is set to release his debut album Throw Down on Aug. 27. It’s been an amazing year for the country artist, who is set to open the Arnprior Fair entertainment lineup on Thursday night (Aug. 8). Earlier this year, his debut single Get By was certified gold, spending 17 weeks as the number-one-selling Canadian Country single at iTunes, and changing everything. “It did so well,” said Hicks. His second single Hell Raisin’ Good Time, was the number one song on Canadian radio for two weeks. He’s had close to one million views online and things just continue to look up. He spoke to the Chronicle-Guide just after learning about the Rising Star nomination. “We’re still catching our breaths on that one,” said Hicks, who is from the Niagara Region. He had just returned from playing some shows on the east coast, where for the first time he was being recognized by fans. He also had a chance to spend a week camping with his family. He’s thrilled to be playing the Arnprior Fair. “We’ve done everything from festivals to backyard parties to bigger venues,” he said. It’ll be the first time Hicks plays in Arnprior and he said he’s heard a lot about it and is looking forward to the experience. “I’m so excited to be there,” he said. Show-goers can expect a good time. “It’s pretty fun when we’re together,” said

lineup of popular country music covers and was pleased that they were well-received. “There’s a little bit of everything on it,” said Hicks of Throw Down. The songs are mostly co-writtten. “Nashville is all about the co-writing,” he said. “I write a ton of songs myself, but some of the best ones tend to come when you’re writing with someone and playing back to each other.” The album also includes a few “outside” songs written by others. “There’s one in particular, Greasy John Deere Cap, that as soon as I heard it I knew I had to play it,” he said. Hicks has been a full-time musician for about 15 years, working five to six nights a week to all hours, and his recent success is a dream come true. “I’m still waiting for someone to come and wake me up,” he said. “It’s so crazy.” He fought hard to get where he is. “I spent all of my 20s trying to get a record deal, trying to get to that next level,” he said. “But it came as soon as I stopped looking for it so hard.” One day at home, he was lamenting the hustle and bustle of a struggling artist. “My wife looked at me and said ‘Look it, you’re doing what you love, you’re making a living from it – be happy.’ And that’s when it happened.” Hicks has a 20-month-old son and said finding the balance can be a challenge but strong support from his wife Amanda and other family members and friends makes all the difference. “I couldn’t do it without a good family base,” he said. His newfound success has also made it a bit easier to see his family, in fact. “I used to work five nights a week and was late every night,” said Hicks. “Now there is some down time. It’s a different kind of busy.”

Fair to feature high profile entertainers, two derbies end long. The midway is being moved from the track to the curling club parking lot surface this year, said Majaury. “This will hopefully make it easier for some of the elderly to get around,” he said. The curling club will also be open this year with exhibits on the ice surface. Team penning will run Friday through Sunday and there’s a strongman competition scheduled for Sunday at 1 p.m. Demolition Derby fans get a double dose this year with the mini four-cylinder and a new mini van class on Thursday at 7 p.m. and the six-cylinder, eight-cylinder stock and eight-cylinder modiﬁed classes beginning at 5 p.m. Saturday. The board is quite excited about the fair’s scheduled performers with rising country stat Tim Hicks scheduled to take the stage at 9:30 p.m. following Thursday’s derby. “It’s an awesome entertainment line-up,” said Majaury.

Headliner David Wilcox is scheduled to perform at 9:30 p.m. Friday following local band Disturbing the Peace. Rudy and Saddle Up will entertain the fair crowds Saturday night and Carroll Baker takes to the stage Sunday at 2:30 p.m. The agricultural society is still looking for volunteers, in particular at the gates. This is a great opportunity for companies to promote their business with signs and gear and there’s a special incentive to get involved, as well, says Majaury. “There are still more people needed,” he said. “You can advertise your group - be it a baseball team, business - with shirts, posters, hats, anyway you wish and each person will receive a weekend pass to the fair, including all entertainment and a meal voucher.” Call Brian Majaury at 613-623-8073 to sign up. Advance passes and unlimited ride vouchers are available at Peebles in the Arnprior Mall, Napa Auto Parts and B&B Buy Back.

We’re going to get some food going,” said Majaury. This is the ﬁrst of what the fair board hopes is an annual event and next year Majaury hopes sponsors will come on board and make it an even better fair feature. The fair is working with Community Living and other organizations to get people signed up for the day and are hoping the public will help to get the word out about this special event.

Arnprior receives major healthy lifestyle grant News – Arnprior’s ‘Get the Ball Rolling’ effort to promote healthy lifestyle has received a major boost. The Town of Arnprior announced last week it is “very pleased” to be a successful recipient of $47,317 in grant funding from the Ontario Sports and Recreation Communities Funds to support the initiative. With a multi-faceted program, which includes supplying bicycles to families who can’t afford them, Arnprior is striving to be a healthier and long-term physically active community. “We want to foster growth and development in all ages through the goals of the Canadian Sport for Life Continuum,” says a news release welcoming the grant. It explains that the Get the Ball Rolling Initiative involves four different programs designed to teach children, youth, families and seniors “the fundamental skills they need to gain confidence to live healthy lifestyles.” These programs include a monthly ‘Learn To’ program, which will teach the fundamental basic skills needed for a specific activity and then either offer the equipment to continue the participation or offer regular programming. There will also be six High School Ambassadors hired whose role will be to heighten engagement with the Pan/ Parapan American Games through ‘Learn To’ programs and run after-school programs and camps, as well as hold workshops and presentations within local schools. The Ambassadors will also be co-ordinating a supervised play program at some of the local parks. The program will run during the summer and will teach children of all ages using Active Stat, FUNdamentals and Learning to train, which will lead to physically active lives as part of the Canadian Sport for Life Continuum.

The Town will also continue its 14 bikes initiative, supplying 25 bikes to children and adults who cannot afford them over the two years this program will run. All of the programs will be offered at little to no cost in order to eliminate financial barriers and help get people in the community more active. “The Town of Arnprior is grateful to receive this important and valuable funding,” said Mayor David Reid. “In today’s economic climate, the Town is always looking to find creative ways to help provide affordable and valuable programming to the community. “Town of Arnprior staff has done a wonderful job of successfully applying for and receiving this grant. “In the coming months, town staff hope to be able to announce other successful funding partnerships,” he added.

Landrigan work set to begin News – Unless you live there, Landrigan Street is a place to avoid over the next two months. The street is being reconstructed starting Tuesday, Aug. 6. Construction is expected to last until late September. B.R. Fulton won the contract from the Town of Arnprior to carry out the long-awaited work.

The street will be repaved between William and Edey streets and sidewalks will be improved. As well, water, sewer and drainage infrastructure will be replaced. Traffic on the street is being limited to local and emergency vehicles and anyone having to drive in the area is asked to travel slowly and cautiously.

Through Diane Swaine’s endless involvement in the community she won this award of $1000 and has chosen to donate it to Partners in Caring.

One of the main reasons Partners in Caring (PIC) fundraises is to meet the medical equipment needs of Arnprior Regional Health (ADMH, The Grove, and the Assisted Living Services Program). Each year the medical experts finalize a list of required items on what is called the Capital Requests List. For this fiscal year, there is a need for $1.4 million worth of equipment. This list includes scopes for urology ($75,000), Monitors for PACS (X-ray screens) in the ER ($11,763), a blanket warmer at the Grove ($10,245) and many more items. Health care funding does not include medical equipment. Communities such as ours needs to rely on the generosity of local business and people who commit to participating in our fundraising events such as Mardi Bra, Christmas Tree Lighting and A Knight in the Maritimes. We rely on businesses such as No Frills, who asked shoppers to donate a few dollars at the cash. We rely on restaurants such as East Side Mario’s who ran a BBQ on Canada Day and donated the proceeds to PIC. We rely on people like Diane Swaine who allocated the $1000 award received from her employer (RBC) to Partners in Caring. Thank you to all of our supporters.

Crash kills mother of two

SHERRY HAAIMA/METROLAND

17 between Goshen and Gillan roads was closed and detours were put in place. Passersby helped control traffic and notify oncoming drivers as emergency personnel arrived. OPP Technical Traffic collision investigators were sent to assist in the investigation. The investigation determined no charges would be laid. It appeared to witnesses that Kellar’s car veered into the path of the truck. Kellar was the mother of two children, Aurora and Ryan. She’s also the daughter of Bruce and Brenda Kellar, and Ralph Sweet (Denise). While vehicular fatalities are down this year in eastern Ontario, Sgt. Kristine Rae said

offer its complete co-operation with civil officials as the process unfolds and will “encourage and support the healing process for all parties concerned following the resolution of the case.” The Pembroke Diocese has been rocked at least three times in the last decade by sex charges against priests. In one of the most recent incidents, a priest who served many years in Arnprior pleaded guilty June 3 to five counts of sexually molesting young boys in incidents that occurred about 40 years ago. Rev. Daniel Miller is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 17. Priests Bernard Prince and Robert Borne were charged in 2005 and 2009 respectively. Both were found guilty.

Arnprior sources said that he has worked at the Nick Smith Centre pool, as well as being a counsellor at an area church camp before he left Arnprior in the early 2000s. Stanley appeared briefly in Ottawa court last Friday and was remanded for a bail hearing Monday. He is facing six counts of sexual assault, six counts of sexual interference with a person under 16, three counts of invitation to sexual touching, one count of telecommunication with a person under the age of 14 for specific criminal offences and two counts of telecommunication

with a person under the age of 16 for specific criminal offences. He has no previous criminal record. On Monday, he was released on bail put up by his parents. As part of the conditions of his release, he was ordered not to communicate with any of the alleged victims or with anyone under the age of 18. Anyone with information on the case is asked to contact the Ottawa Police Sexual Assault/Child Abuse Section at 613-236-1222, ext. 5944 or Crime Stoppers at 613-2338477 (TIPS).

More of Algonquin Park protected News - Ontario is reducing the ecological footprint of logging in Algonquin Provincial Park while maintaining that a healthy forestry sector will still continue in the area. Past limiting of logging in the park has led to protests by loggers and Renfrew County ofﬁcials. However, the provincial government argues that the changes better balance logging and park interests. The newly-amended park management plan increases the amount of protected land within Algonquin Provincial Park by 96,000 hectares – one and a half times the size of the city of Toronto. The newly-protected parkland includes: • Almost 70,000 hectares along waterways, giving greater protection to naturally-sustaining Brook trout lakes, beautiful landscapes and backcountry recreation such as backpacking and canoeing; • More than 14,000 hectares of zoning to enhance and connect existing wilderness zones; • More than 12,000 hectares of nature reserve zones to protect natural wildlife habitats

and landscapes. “Algonquin Park is an incredible asset to our provincial park system and amending the management plan helps to ensure a balance between conservation and forest management,” said Minister of Natural Resources David Orazietti. “Our goal is to preserve this important ecosystem for all Ontarians while allowing the sustainable use of our natural resources to generate socio-economic beneﬁts,” he added. The amended park management plan follows extensive consultation with park stakeholders. Algonquin Provincial Park is the oldest provincial park in the province and is 763,459 hectares in size – larger than Prince Edward Island. • In 2012, Ontario’s provincial parks received more than nine million visits – 800,000 to Algonquin alone – and brought in $69 million in revenue, which supported jobs and businesses all across the province. • Algonquin is the only provincial park to support forest management.

‘Don’t encourage Liberals by voting for them’ News – The provincial Liberals will take a decent result in today’s by-elections as an endorsement of their “scandal-ridden government,” warned Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski and Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli in the days leading up to the vote. The two Progressive Conservative MPPs charged that the Liberals continue to try to sweep the gas plant scandal under the rug. “We now have documentation proving what we’ve known all along,” Yakabuski said. “That Liberals knew the true cost of this scandal, but continue to hide that cost from taxpayers. I’m now concerned that the Liberals will see any decent result in these by-elections as an endorsement of their corruption.” Even the Liberals are worried, he said. Correspondence has emerged in which Liberal staffers acknowledge that their misleading messaging is “making it sound like we don’t know there were long-term costs … when we did.” Now, the Liberals seem determined to hide the details of this cover-up until after the Aug. 1 by-elections, said Yakabuski. “It is precisely this behavior that saw the OPP launch a criminal investigation into the

gas plant scandal,” said Fedeli. “Electing Liberals will mean taxpayers never get the truth,” said Yakabuski. “Electing the NDP says ‘keep it coming’. We need to send a message to the Liberals.” Meanwhile, Yakabuski and Kitchener MPP Michael Harris released a copy of a letter they wrote to Wynne asking she get the Liberal Party of Ontario to pay the $3.5 million cost of recovering and deciphering the most recently discovered gas plant emails. The letter in part reads: “In the last week, it has emerged that gas plant documents and records your party indicated had been ‘deleted’ are in fact recoverable. Now, you expect taxpayers to foot the $3.5 million bill to retrieve this latest round of emails. “Taxpayers deserve to know the truth before the Aug. 1 by-elections. They deserve to see these emails. They deserve to see the Auditor General’s report, which will provide clarity as to the depth of the Oakville cover-up as well. “Therefore, I am calling on you to have the Liberal Party of Ontario pay the full $3.5 million required to release these emails. “Premier, do the right thing. Give the people of Ontario the answers they deserve.”

News - The days of working for one employer until retirement may be long over, but many people in Arnprior are demonstrating work place longevity. Staff members working with the town for five years or more received special certificates detailing their years of service during a special council meeting July 22. “This award is just a small reflection of our appreciation of the many years of hard work and dedication to the town of Arnprior,” said Mayor David Reid. “As I said many times before, the employees of any corporation, and the town of Arnprior is no exception, are the greatest asset. For us to improve the town of Arnprior we need a really dedicated work staff and I know we have that.” Capt. Ken Carr has been working for the fire department since 1965. He plans on retiring this year after 45 years of service. Many things have changed since he first started with the department having only two trucks and maybe at most a dozen firefighters. The department has grown by leaps and a bound, not only by including new firefighters, new equipment and new vehicles, but the station itself has expanded to accommodate it all. “Look at us now, look at the station,” he said. “Everything there we need and more.” Techniques and the faces of his crew may have changed, but the team spirit hasn’t. It is one of the reasons the 66-year-old has stayed on for so long. Another is the daily challenge. He has the esteem of his team and his fire chief. “Cap. Carr was recognized by municipal Council along with 40 other dedicated town staff for their devoted service,” said Arnprior Fire Chief John Okum. “Capt. Carr has committed over 45 years of loyal and dedicated service to the Town of Arnprior. His ability to adapt to the constant changes in the fire service is a true re-

EDITORIAL

Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new-ish cabinet: Old wine in new bottles? Opinion - One of the best quotes about Prime Minister Stephen Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cabinet shuffle came not from the usual political pundits on Parliament Hill, but unintentionally from Canadian movie director Ivan Reitman. The Kindergarten Cop director, in a conversation with Macleanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s magazine, was asked about the long awaited Ghostbusters III. Interviewer Brian D. Johnson asked, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If they can reboot Star Trek, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no reason you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reboot Ghostbusters.â&#x20AC;? To this, Toronto-raised Reitman replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not talking about rebooting it, because the original works just fine. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about whether thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a whole other story to tell.â&#x20AC;? And therein lies the problem for Harper. Harper is planning another prorogation and a Throne Speech this fall. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been down this road before â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in fact, the prorogations are getting hard to discern from each other these days. Back in 2010, Harper said he needed to â&#x20AC;&#x153;recalibrateâ&#x20AC;? his government with a prorogation. Already, the morning after the shuffle, came word from Global News that a â&#x20AC;&#x153;friend and enemy stakeholderâ&#x20AC;? list was included in the briefing books for new ministers. This is by no

means the equivalent of Richard Nixonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;enemies list,â&#x20AC;? but it is not common, and certainly somewhat creepy, to officially list someone as, essentially, an enemy of the state: but then, this is a government which has, essentially, blacklisted environmental groups. Certainly, some common courtesy â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, make sure you steer clear of Bob in accounting, he really has a bad attitude,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; may save a new minister some headaches, but this is taking it too far. It certainly seems to feed into the attitude that the faces may have changed, but the story remains the same, just as the cast of Saturday Night Live changes every few years. However, the basic premise remains the same â&#x20AC;&#x201C; musical guest, cold opening, celebrity guestâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opening monologue, Weekend Update, and one-joke sketches that seem to go on forever, and characters with catchphrases being groomed for the inevitable movie. And just as Lorne Michaels does, and always will, lead the show on air from 30 Rockefeller Centre, so too does Harper fill the same role from 24 Sussex Drive. Is this the government you thought youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d get

back on May 2, 2011? In fairness to Harper, even he admitted outside of Rideau Hall y that â&#x20AC;&#x153;obviously, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always looking at ways we can continue to evolve to address new challenges and improve our performance.â&#x20AC;? Good to see a little humility. It is also very encouraging to see that Harper has appointed more women, and younger women at that, to cabinet. But letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s be honest. Male or female, visible minority or not, the composition doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter so much as it does that they are all singing from the same hymn book, so to speak. All governments adhere to cabinet solidarity â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at least in public â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and cabinet secrecy, but as our recent editorial cartoon made abundantly clear, the direction, the talking points, everything, begins and ends with Harper. Ministers serve at his pleasure, and he believes that he is the only indispensable member of his government. Things will get interesting now in terms of how backbenchers will react to this news. For every renegade MP who has broken ranks to sit as an independent, or faced the wrath of the Tory front bench in pushing the speaker to

allow them to speak without pre-approval from the PMO, they are now stewing in their offices, burning and seething in the knowledge that they did not make it into cabinet this time and, in all likelihood, will never make it into cabinet at this rate. So long as they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do anything foolish like vote against the budget, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the point of towing the party line? Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the point of being there if, as more than one MP has said, you are just window dressing, reading off a bunch of talking points dictated to you by some trust fund baby half your age from the PMO? Harper will suddenly find it a lot harder to maintain party discipline amongst his backbenchers now that the dangling carrot of a cabinet post, or secretary position, has been yanked from right in front of them. Conservative candidates shooting their mouth off partially imploded the Tory campaign in 2004 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; hence part of the reason why Harper is so focused on staying on message. Just as loose cannon candidates for the Wildrose party in Alberta helped snatch defeat from the jaws of victory last year, Harper may find the 2015 federal vote his hardest yet.

LETTERS

Municipal merger makes sense, tax increases do not To the Editor: In the past year I wrote a letter to the Chronicle-Guide and proposed, as a vision, a new city in Renfrew County. I called it the City of Madawaska. It involved amalgamation for much of the same reasons that Doug Smith wrote about in the latest issue of the paper (July 25). I thought I made sense then and he corroborates what that vision would mean for this area in his letter. I applaud his shared vision. After I wrote that letter, I received a lot of feedback. Much of it negative.

It was suggested by some that I was naive and a way offbase as to the reality of such a vision. It wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work said some. Others suggested I was ignorant of local politics. Others suggested things were â&#x20AC;&#x153;good for the area as they were and not to tinker with a successful partnership.â&#x20AC;? I defended my vision then and I defend it again today. Some of the naysayers who were critical of me are now touting exactly what I envisioned. Believe it or not, a few are our present elected officials. Ummmm! I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told you so,â&#x20AC;? but I will tell our elected folks

this. If you think the town people will support a tax hike as you propose to support an ice rink, library and museum, think again. If you must be draconian in your decisions, then cut services! We wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tolerate tax increases such as you propose. We put the last council to rest because of their incompetence and indifference and we can and will do it again. \ Govern wisely because we are more powerful as an electorate than you are.

Silence is not a ‘no’ Summer retreat spoiled by garbage To the Editor:

These are our reasons for not completing the Township of McNab-Braeside Recreation and Library Non Resident Service Agreement Questionnaire. 1. The survey begins with an unequivocal statement that there will be no tax funded Recreation and Library Non Resident Service Agreement in 2014. We do not see the point of responding to a council that has made its decision before seeking feedback from the community. 2. The survey asks if we use the Arnprior or Renfrew libraries and/or the Nick Smith Centre. Yes or No. Some years we do, some years we don’t, so maybe. 3. The survey asks if we would pay to use these services. Yes or No. If we answer Yes, the Township will invoice us separately. Involving the Township in our non resident transaction with Arnprior or Renfrew adds no value and, judging by current backlogs, the Township is ill-equipped to take on any additional tasks. If we use the services in 2014, we’ll pay Arnprior and/or Renfrew directly. 4. The survey asks if we would pay for someone else

in our community to use these services. Yes or No. If we answer Yes, the Township will invoice an unknown amount separately. We do not understand how Council can justify adding an unnecessary level of complexity and incurring more expense by having the Township administer a charity where the donors don’t know how much their bill will be and the recipients are made to ask for help to access what should be a basic service. It did not occur to us that the Township would unethically count a non-response to a survey as a Yes or a No. A non-response is a non-response. Our answers (above) may be difficult for the Township to quantify because of the flawed survey methodology, but do not count our roll number as a No. We are in favour of a progressive and equitable community where we support each other through our taxes to access libraries, the provincial ebook library, and modern year-round recreation. Unfortunately, that answer is not an option on this survey.

Susan Howard, Drew Carmichael Braeside

To the Editor: My family has owned a property outside of Arnprior for generations that we now use as a summer retreat. There is a road that runs through our property that follows a river. The road was constructed to make easier access for the people that live in that community. As a result it has become a throughway that is very attractive to fishermen, bird watchers, kids looking for a place to drink and people looking for an easy place to dump their garbage. We did put a garbage bin out, hoping that it might help, but it was stolen. We have posted signs, but they are always ripped off. We have even put up barricades but they have been torn down. What is the matter with everyone? We have never had an issue with anyone that wants to use our property to fish, but it gets old really quickly if we have to go out and pick up after them. All the garbage that is left behind will eventually end up in the river that they have been enjoying all this time. The bigger problem being the same people or person that has

decided to make our property their own personal dumping ground for everything they need to get rid of. What makes you think that what you are doing is okay? Maybe we should all take

a page from your book and just start dumping our garbage on each other’s front yard. My family and I have loved visiting this beautiful part of Ontario and hope to continue with our children’s children.

Please people. Have a little respect and pride in this land of ours so that everyone can enjoy it. Wendy Story Southwestern Ontario

Fill in confusing rec survey, then lobby council to have all pay Last summer the mayor and council of McNab-Braeside decided to conduct a survey of the residents to determine the level of usage, or support of the library and Nick Smith Centre in Arnprior. At the time, usage numbers were not being provided by Arnprior, so this was the next best way to obtain these numbers. The topic of the survey was sent to the McNab Recreation Committee for discussion and a recommendation was to be sent to council as to how to proceed. The question was to be clear and concise – do you use it/ support it, OR do you not support it. What we have now is not what was discussed at these meetings and is anything but clear and concise. In fact it puts to shame the debacle of the Quebec separation referendum. While the four options pre-

sented on the survey are pretty clear – either you use/support the use of different facilities or you do not – it is the portion in bold that has created the ambiguity and, therefore, confusion amongst the constituents. Without having consulted with its constituents, the mayor and council unanimously decided that the Transfer Agreement would no longer be taken off of the general tax base. They claim overwhelming support on their position, but cannot provide any evidence to prove it. Conversely, there have been two public meetings and countless letters to the editor on the issue that indicate that the overwhelming support is in fact to stick with the status quo. As it stands, the value of the Transfer Agreement, which is approximately $168,000, is to be divided amongst those that state they either use the facilities, or chose to financially support those that do, even if

they do not. The problem is, there is no way of knowing what each ‘supporter’ will have to pay. So in essence, this ‘survey’ will in fact create a billing list for what amounts to a tax on reading and recreation. Who in their right mind would agree to pay for something when they don’t know what the bill will be? But what choice do we have? If we don’t respond, those that do will end up being billed an exorbitant amount of money to continue to use the facilities. Even more mind-boggling is their approach to the nonrespondents (those that are too confused to respond, or those that either lost or threw out the survey) – these will be ‘assumed’ to be non-supporters. How pray tell can our mayor and council presume to assume what a ‘non-respondent’ might be thinking? It is one of the most un-democratic ideas that I have ever heard.

Do any of us turn on the news on a hot day to find out what we can do to alleviate the heat? Most evenings I watch the first 20 minutes of the 6 o’clock news out of Ottawa. I hate it when the weatherman says “there is a 40 per cent chance of a thundershower tomorrow, so you might want to take an umbrella along.” Ahhh! On slow news days, television stations spend a large segment of their news time with silly happenings, or they give viewers tips on, for example, how to cope with hot and humid summer weather or cold winter weather. A reporter might interview the medical officer of health about what people can do to alleviate the heat. Don’t you hate it when your intelligence is insulted like that? Hot, sticky summer days are normal and predictable. I agree that the heat can be extreme and do empathize for the elderly and the ill. When I grew up, the elderly folks wore dark and long-sleeved clothing. There are still men around today who wear long johns in the summer regardless of the tem-

or school break programs? What about gone swimming at the pool? Gone public skating? Attended, or participated in a hockey/ringette game or tournament? Karate class? Fish and Game Club, or Ducks Unlimited dinner in the hall? What about a wedding reception or a Stag ‘n Doe? Attended ‘Little Peoples’? Gone to the dog show? If you have answered yes to any of these, then you either use, or support the use of the library and Nick Smith Centre and, therefore, should be sending in the ‘survey’ stating that. Step two is fighting mu-

nicipal hall on this ridiculous notion that only those that support either facility should pay for it. If everyone answered honestly to the question that I stated above, the percentage of McNab-Braeside residents that either user or support of these facilities would be darn close to 100% and, therefore, the costs associated with accessing these facilities that McNab-Braeside cannot provide should be borne by the entire tax base.

Why not interview old fellas in long johns sipping tea in the heat? To the Editor:

If Jacques Parizeau, or Rene Levesque were alive, they would be saying, “Câline de bine, why didn’t I think of that! We would have won!” So, what do we do? I think a two-stage approach is in order – first indicate if you use/support these facilities or not. So, what does it mean to ‘use/support’ these facilities, or support those that do? The answer is quite simple – have you, or someone in your family or circle of friends used the library in your lifetime? Gone to story time? Attended one of the summer

perature. They should be interviewed for the supper hour news – a few elderly men sitting in the shade under an old oak tree, sporting long johns under trousers. And sipping hot cups of tea. Now don’t get me wrong. I’m not advocating wearing long underwear in the summer. The old-timers wore the stuff and they did mostly hard manual labour. Go figure that out! But seriously, do the news media take us for a bunch of dummies or do they think we need to be pampered? Do any of us turn on the TV news on a sweltering day to find out from some expert how to handle the heat? Radio talking heads also like to advise their listeners to take along an umbrella when there’s a 30 per cent chance of showers late in the afternoon. Can’t we think for ourselves? What’s wrong with getting a little wet on a hot summer day? It’ll dry off. It’s a refreshing sight to see someone walking in the rain. Maynard van der Galien Renfrew

Beavers continue to provide surprises Lifestyle - I think it fair to say I have spent more time watching beavers than most people alive have. For three decades I have observed and photographed those animals and I consider myself very familiar with their behaviours. Incidentally, my beaver book was delivered to the publisher earlier this week! Recently I spent two days visiting beaver ponds along the Basin Road near eastern Algonquin Park. I left home at 3:30 a.m., planning to arrive A washout on Round Lake Road was due to a beaver dam breaching after torrential rain. by dawn. But my arrival was unexpectedly delayed.From Highway 17 near Pembroke I turned onto the Round Lake Road only to find it barricaded. I had to backtrack to Eganville and come in from Killaloe, adding another hour to my trip. Later I learned a beaver dam that had breached during torrential rain caused the washout; two cars fell into the chasm but miraculously no one was killed. I finally arrived at my destination around 7:30 a.m., too late for most beaver activity. However, I found a freshly built lodge and could hear baby beavers mewing inside it. I watched for an hour but saw no beavers so I left. I returned around 5 p.m. and quietly waited with eager Call to reserve your Join us for our Live Well Day Away anticipation.

Meanwhile, four other Visit AgeIsMore.com beavers - another adult, a year-

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way ling, and two small kits - made appearances. That adult climbed onto some exposed mud and there chewed a poplar log. When a kit joined it, the apparent mother beaver gently caressed her baby. I had seen those behaviours many other times. But then the beaver working on the lodge did something quite unexpected. It carried a double load, the stick being a poplar branch about four feet long. After dropping the mud, it held the stick up in the air and

probed the top of the lodge with it. I thought it was simply trying to position the stick. But when the end of the stick pierced the lodge roof, the beaver continued to push it straight down. At times this took some effort. Eventually the stick was pushed so far down that it was flush with the lodge. I figured that due to its length it must have gone right through the roof and be projecting inside the lodge. Perhaps the beaver was delivering food to its babies in the lodge. It repeated the same action a second time, again with a poplar branch. Then another thought came to mind. Beaver lodges ventilate through the top, an area that is reported to receive less mud. Perhaps in addition to providing food, the beaver was creating ventilation holes in the lodge. If so, that was one doubly clever beaver! The Nature Number is 613387-2503; email is mruntz@ start.ca.

Celebrate the river, paddle down the Madawaska News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The public is invited to take part in a Celebrate Our River Day paddle on the Madawaska River Saturday, Aug. 10. The free paddling excursion is being organized by the Bonnechere River Watershed Project in collaboration with the Township of McNab-Braeside. The mass paddle begins at 3 p.m. at Cherry Point Park, the rest stop park just south of Calabogie on Calabogie Road. The paddlers will head down river in canoes and kayaks to the Burnstown Beach Park in the paddle that is expected to take about two hours. The natural ďŹ&#x201A;ow of the river means that little strenuous effort is required. On-site registration begins at 2:30 p.m. at the Burnstown beach. From there paddlers will be shuttled to Cherry Point Park to start the paddle excursion back to Burnstown. The picturesque 13-kilometre section of the Madawaska River passes by homes and cottages as well as sections of undeveloped shoreline, and the hamlets of Springtown and Burnstown. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very good chance that KingďŹ shers and Great Blue Herons will be spotted, along with other wildlife.

Joining the excursion is free with your own canoe/kayak and paddling gear or $20 for a seat in a six-person Explorer canoe provided by the Ottawa River Canoe Brigade. Contact info@ BonnechereRiver.ca to book your Explorer canoe seat. After the paddle, participants are welcome to head over to the Neat Coffee Shop in Burnstown for a barbecue. That will be followed at 7:30 by an evening of free entertainment in the Neat Schoolhouse featuring music by Terry McLeish and a performance of Bonnechere River- Future Tense, an original musical theatrical production by Stone Fence Theatre in partnership with the Bonnechere River Watershed Project. The free performance is made possible by sponsors Lockwood Building Centre, RE/MAX Renfrew and MacKillicans & Associates. RafďŹ&#x201A;e prize donors are Bonnechere Caves, Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien Theatre and the Bent Anchor. A similar excursion was held in the lower section of the Bonnechere River between the Second and First Chutes June 15. For more information, visit http://www.bonnechereriver.ca/ brwp-events.

Rail service in the Valley suffers another major blow News - Transport Pontiac-Renfrew reports that despite documented proof substantial business opportunities exist, CN has announced plans to remove one of the last sections of the Beachburg Subdivision rail line from Portage du Fort, Que. to a point east of Fitzroy Harbour. Harry Gow and Terry Gibeau, co-chairs of TPR, are dismayed by the CNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plans, which follow up on the removing of the line from Portage to Pembroke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The region has worked long and hard for the re-creation of a short-line railway that would convey the products and the commuters of the upper Ottawa Valley to destinations outside the region, but current developments are making this hard to achieve,â&#x20AC;? says the TPR in a news release last

week. The first section of CN line removal was completed this spring as the section to Pembroke was lifted, cutting off the struggling-to-reopen ATC panel board plant in Pembroke. The ATC facility has rail lines leading into the plant and shipping literally from the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back door would have been cost-effective. An advisory of CNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest intentions from Francois HĂŠbert, vice-president network strategies, was received by TPR on July 22. The letter states in part, â&#x20AC;&#x153;(CN) held off removing the remaining 40 miles of rail â&#x20AC;Ś because there were indications that a new customer would begin transporting aggregate over this portion of the line â&#x20AC;Ś (but) we

have been advised by the customer that this business opportunity will not materialize.â&#x20AC;? Gow commented that â&#x20AC;&#x153;while TPR is not a party to the details of these negotiations, the freight rates charged by CN are in our experience significantly higher than those charged by a short line railway, such as the former Ottawa Central Railway, which operated the line before CN bought it back, and that is what keeps shippers from using this line.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;CN had ignored pleas to keep the line to Pembroke as ATC Panels will restart production there, and needed the line to move its products to market,â&#x20AC;? added Gibeau. â&#x20AC;&#x153;TPR then worked on an alternative for ATC, which would have given it an opportunity to use the railway from Portage with

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ZONE CORRIDOR FOR RAILâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

TPR urges the municipalities to ensure their zoning is respected by CN. This measure had previously saved the CPR line from Hull to MontrĂŠal, when the municipalities of MRC Papineau zoned the line, now operated by the QuĂŠbec Gatineau Railway, a regional line. Gow and Gibeau reiterated that â&#x20AC;&#x153;concerted action can save the Pontiacâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s railway, but it will require swift and decisive action by all concerned.â&#x20AC;?

a transfer from trucks.â&#x20AC;? HĂŠbert â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s letter contained no reference to ATCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s planned ramp-up and new business potential. Both Gow and Gibeau have asked the three levels of government to intervene. Of these, only the municipal level has so far acted with municipalities in MRC Pontiac zoning the land of the railway for railway use only.

with community participation. The contracts are being offered to those who applied during the small FIT application period from Dec. 14 to Jan. 18. The OPA was authorized to offer up to 200 mW of contracts to applicants. The remaining 53.5 mW of capacity will be added to the procurement target for this fall’s Small FIT application period. Details for this next window will be posted on the FIT website when available. Small FIT projects are generally those with a capacity of more than 10 kilowatts (kW) and up to 500 kW. As of the OPA’s most recent FIT program quarterly report, the OPA had contracts for 1,706 FIT projects, representing 4,541 mW. Of these, 616 projects had been completed and are delivering clean electricity to Ontario’s grid, with the rest in development. Ontario’s FIT Program, enabled by the Green Energy and Green Economy Act, 2009, is North America’s first comprehensive guaranteed pricing structure for renewable electricity production. It includes standardized program rules, prices and contracts for those interested in developing a qualifying renewable energy project. Prices are designed to cover project costs and allow for a reasonable return on investment over the contract term. Qualifying renewable energy technologies include biogas, renewable biomass, landfill gas, solar photovoltaic, waterpower and wind power. More information about the FIT program is available at fit.powerauthority.on.ca. The OPA also administers the microFIT Program for renewable energy projects up to 10 kW.

News - Two projects in McNab-Braeside are included in the latest list of contracts awarded under the FIT program as announced by the Ontario Power Authority (OPA). Of the 951 FIT contracts announced July 3, 72 went to eastern Ontario and three are within Renfrew County. They were an Aboriginal rooftop project for 500 kilowatts by Goshen Solar in McNab-Braeside, a community groundmount project for 500 kW by Renfrew Solar Power also in McNabBraeside, and a health sector rooftop project for 190 kW by Renfrew County at Bonnechere Manor. The latest series of approved contracts represent 146.5 megawatts (mW) of power, enough to power more than 21,000 homes. More than 98 per cent of the successful applications received municipal council support resolutions. Most (934) of the contract offers are for solar photovoltaic (PV) projects. There are also 16 bioenergy projects and one waterpower project. In total, project developers are expected to invest more than $750 million in the Ontario economy, and the projects are expected to result in 2,200 jobs for Ontarians, says the OPA. “The OPA is pleased to be able to offer contracts to these renewable energy projects,” said OPA CEO Colin Andersen. “The FIT Program is helping to transform our electricity system to be cleaner and more sustainable, as well as provide opportunities for more Ontarians to participate in the clean energy economy.” The projects announced July 3 include 219 projects with Aboriginal participation and 136

OPP advise drivers to ‘move over’ News – As the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) gears up for a busy Civic Holiday long weekend, they are giving the public a headsup on what dangerous driving habits they’ll be watching out for and what positive driving behaviours they will be expecting from motorists throughout the province. One important law the OPP will be looking for drivers to adhere to is Ontario’s Move Over law. This law applies to all motorists who are approaching a police, fire or ambulance vehicle in the same direction of travel, stopped on the roadside with its lights flashing. Drivers in this situation are required to slow down and pass with caution, but if the road has multiple lanes, drivers must move over into another lane, if it can be done safely. Far too many drivers ignore this law, says OPP Deputy Commissioner Larry Beechey. “Since 1989, we have lost five OPP officers who were tending to their duties on the side of the road when they were killed by approaching vehicles and many of our emergency partners

have also died at the hands of careless drivers in the same situation,” he said. The OPP reminds motorists that because this law was introduced 10 years ago, the grace period during which officers tend to raise awareness of a new law and let people off with a warning is no longer in effect and violating this law comes with a $400 to $1,200 fine and three demerit points upon conviction. “Over the 2012 Civic Holiday long weekend, we lost five people in motor vehicle collisions within OPP jurisdiction and this year our officers will be on alert for people who display aggressive driving habits, those who drive while impaired or distracted and those who are not wearing seat belts,” said OPP Chief Superintendent Don Bell. OPP officers will also be highly visible on the water and on trails, laying charges against people who show a disregard for public safety while boating or off-roading this weekend. Six people have died in off-road vehicle incidents so far this year and alcohol was a factor in four of those fatalities, said Bell.

Water levels high, stay clear, warns OPG News – Ontario Power Generation (OPG) is urging people to exercise extreme care around Ontario waterways this Civic holiday long weekend, particularly on rivers and lakes near hydroelectric stations and dams. “Recent heavy rains, in many areas of Ontario, have led to high water levels,” noted Mike Martelli, OPG’s senior ice-president of HydroThermal Operations. “Holiday weekends draw people to Ontario’s lakes and rivers. “Please remember when near hydroelectric facilities, to obey all warning signs and buoys, and do not cross fences, booms, and barriers. Stay Clear! Stay Safe!” Most hydroelectric facilities are remotely R0142078808 R0012166973-0620

controlled by operators located many kilometers away. Dams can be opened or stations can be started up throughout the day. This causes frequent and rapid changes in the water flow and levels, like what happened a decade ago when a woman and her son were killed near Calabogie. The changing conditions create strong undertows, turbulence and sudden, powerful gushes of water moving downstream in what was once calm looking surface water. Visit www.opg.com/watersafety to watch the ‘The Danger is Real’, and see other unique online resources that will people stay safe this summer.

Packers to host a junior league showcase again John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

Sports - Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League officials must have liked what they saw last year when Arnprior hosted the league’s early season showcase. The league has decided that Arnprior will host a showcase again, this one to kick off the season in the Valley-Metro conference. Ten teams from the two divisions will each play a game at the Nick Smith Centre on Saturday, Sept. 14 to launch the 2013-14 season. The home-town Packers will wrap up the day with a game against Gatineau Mustangs at 7:30 p.m.

It is the first of 42 regular season games for the Packers. Arnprior parks and recreation director Glenn Arthur is pleased the league is coming back to Arnprior for a showcase, but not surprised. “It’s a vote of confidence (for Arnprior),” he said. “I think they see we can provide the best services.” Showcase events been moving around the league arenas, mainly in Ottawa, but it seems they have found a home at the Nick Smith Centre. The league had originally scheduled the showcase for the Barbara Ann Scott Arena in Nepean, but decided to move it up the Valley. The regular season actually opens Friday,

Sept. 13 when the Renfrew Timberwolves play in Perth. However, all the teams except Perth gather in Arnprior Sept. 14 for a full day of games.

Second Rising Star horse show clinic set for this Saturday Sports – Riders from Kanata to Deep River and all points in-between will gather in McNabBraeside this Saturday, Aug. 4 for the second in the Rising Star Series of horse show clinics. Clinician for the day is Kitty Bowland of Renfrew. Spectators are welcome to the fullday event. The first in the series June 22 at JCS Stables just west of Arnprior on Scheel Drive attracted competitors from West Carleton, Stittsville,

Arnprior, Renfrew, Kanata and Deep River. After days of wet weather, and a light sprinkle in the morning, the June horse show clinic ran full speed ahead with lots of competitor and a huge crowd. It was a “fantastic start” to the series,” said host and organizer Julie Skarica. Competitors, coaches and spectators gained knowledge through comments and evaluations from clinician Dennis Mahoney, who flew in from Deer Lake, Newfoundland.

There are a lot of individuals responsible for bringing the horse show clinics together, but the participants are the most important, said Skarica. “We also want to thank the generosity of our sponsors and the numerous volunteers who help to provide for a safe, fun-filled and exciting day.” All ribbons were provided by TTO Management of Flamborough.

Four appraisers to evaluate treasures at Victorian Tea Aug. 10 John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

Arts – Adding appraisals to the Victorian Tea at the Waba Cottage Museum and Gardens was so successful last year, they’re coming back for an encore. Four appraisers will be on hand for the fifth annual fundraising tea, scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 10 from 1-3:30 p.m. at the scenic gardens on Burnstown Road in White Lake. More than 100 people brought items for appraisals in the first offering of the service in 2012. New this year is Ottawa goldsmith A.J. Horton, who will appraise antique jewelry. Cleary Construction’s Mike Cleary of Sand Point is back to scrutinize heritage furniture. He is a former importer and dealer of fine English antique furnishings. Certified personal property appraiser, Kim Murray of Sand Point, also returns to evaluate antique dishes. The owner of HelpDownsizing.Com, she has been an antiques and decorative arts dealer since 1986. Murray has invited Linda Bromley, who came to last year’s tea and showed a great deal of knowledge about historical items, to join her.

People can bring up to three antique items, or photographs of them if they’re too large to transport easily, to find out their history and about what they’re worth. The appraisal costs $5 an item. Or visitors can just come for the light lunch, a variety of homemade desserts and traditional afternoon tea elegantly served on fine china by ladies and gentlemen in Victorian garb. The tea will also feature live piano music. The tea will be served under shaded canopies at tables for four. There will be more room under the tea tents this year and that should reduce waiting time for guests. The Victorian dresses of the servers are the inspired work of Joan Headrick of McNab-Braeside. She is a natural seamstress and receives high praise for her work outfitting the volunteers who make the tea possible. The only dress not Headrick’s creation last year was a bridesmaid dress worn by Fern Stewart. It was made by Stewart’s mother.

Tickets cost $10 each and can be bought in advance at the museum, by calling 613-623-8853 or on site the day of the tea. “It (tea) showcases the museum and brings in a few dollars,” explained Headrick. The money raised goes toward the upkeep and improvements at the museum. While at the tea, visitors can tour the eight acres on the lake featuring 11 gardens and five historic buildings. Waba Cottage is a facsimile of the original building that stood there from 1835 to 1936. It was built by community volunteers as a 1967 Centennial project. The log church, farm and schoolhouse are original log buildings that have been moved onto the site. The 11 gardens were designed and created for the 2000 Millennium. Other facilities include washrooms, handicapped access, free parking, boat launch and picnic area. As well, the gardens can be booked for weddings or wedding photography.

A little taste of Belgium Creperie truck opens in Arnprior Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Business – As far as food trucks go, there’s a new kid in town. Kevin Dodds and Pauline Boulanger have opened The Belgian Creperie, located on Daniel Street on the Knights Inn property. Dodds is the son of Wes Fries’ creators Wes and Monique Dodds. He is using a crepe recipe of his mother, who is of Belgium descent. Combined with Tracey’s ice cream, the result are sweet delicacies that are garnering rave reSHERRY HAAIMA/METROLAND views from visitors.

She and Dodds modified the crepes a little, working to come up with a special filling made up whipped cream and fruit. “We had to figure out what we were going to do with the filling and we tried out different

things before coming up with the final product,” said Dodds. There are a variety of fillings available, including mixed berry, raspberry, banana and chocolate, strawberry, and blueberry. There are options for topping, as well, with strawberry, chocolate and caramel on the menu. And they’ve kept everything local. “Each crepe comes with a scoop of delicious Tracey’s ice cream,” said Dodds. Fruit and other ingredients are locally produced, as well. The Creperie will also offer milkshakes and other treats, including locally famous homemade lemon cake made by Ev Kaerbye. Boulanger and Dodds express their thanks to Knights Inn owners for allowing them to use the location. “We’re thinking it’s going to be a good location,” said Dodds. With hotels on each side of the street and a steady stream of traffic and passersby, it seems ideal. Dodds and Boulanger brought the business to a recent Renfrew art festival on a trial run and said their treats were well-received. There are no solid plans to take the truck on the road again this summer, but they will consider possibly adding a second mobile vehicle next year. They also thanked Shirley Carron of Black Sheep Designs, who did the art work on the trailer. Juan Marcos will be helping out working in the truck. A few tables and chairs are set up for customers and Dodds and Boulanger welcome the public to drop in and try a crepe. The Belgian Creperie will be open from noon until about 8 p.m. or longer depending on how busy it is.

Thunderstorm came with lessons on danger, generosity Lifestyle - Thunderstorms in the country terrified Mother. Sadly, that fear was passed on to me. We crouched in corners, but never on an outside wall, and always away from the telephone that hung on the kitchen wall. If it was a really horrific storm, I often took to hiding under a bed. Storms that struck through the night were especially frightening. The lightning lit up the entire countryside, and

in the blackness of the night, rolling thunder roared, sounding like a gigantic train careening through our fields. It was not unusual for Mother to get all of us children out of our beds in the dead of night at the first sound of thunder or a flash of lightning. Father, of course, slept through the entire storm. Seeing Mother sitting on a chair, away from any window, the coal oil lamp lit on the bake table by the back door, did little to put my mind at ease. She sat with her purse clutched tightly in her arms, ready to make a dash outside should our old log house be struck by lightning. Where we would run to, I had no idea! The very thought of going outside into the raging storm was almost as frightening as shaking like a leaf inside, waiting for what I was sure was a fiery end to our lives. Mother constantly compared country storms with those she remembered from New York. With the heavy sounds of the city, storms there passed almost unnoticed. And the day lightning hit the pole that held our clothes line and followed it to the end pole, Mother nearly collapsed. My sister Audrey, whom I thought took storms much too lightly, said we should be grateful that the clothes line was free standing and not attached to the cor-

ner of the house! I knew what she meant. And then one summer day, when we had gone through a particularly long dry spell, the sky in the west darkened and far off in the distance we could hear the rumble of thunder. We had finished our noon meal, and by the time we had redded up the kitchen, the storm was upon us. Father said he would just sit a spell. “No use going out in that rain,” he said, as he settled down in the rocking chair with the latest copy of the Family Herald and Weekly Star. “How can you sit there and read with that storm raging outside?” Mother wanted to know. Father never took his eyes off the paper. My brothers had absolutely no fear in a storm. In fact, it wasn’t unusual for them to stand at the kitchen window and watch the lightning streak out of the black clouds. Mother had settled in a chair against the inside wall between the kitchen and the downstairs bedroom, Audrey, busied herself with her embroidery work,

and I was on a chair inches from Mother. The whole house shook with every clap of thunder, and the storm seemed to hover right overhead for a very long time. I prayed it would soon go away, and follow the Bonnechere to another part of the valley. “Oh my God,” Emerson yelled. Everett yelled for Father to come quickly to the window looking out towards the west hill. Earl, the most timid of the three began to cry. I knew something terrible had happened. Father jumped from the rocker and ran to the west window; cautiously, Mother, Audrey and I followed. “The lightning,” Emerson stammered. “It hit the big maple on the hill,” Everett said. And underneath the tree, where 11 of our Holstein cows had gone for shelter, we saw what had happened. They looked like they had laid themselves down to rest in the summer heat. But I knew without asking what had happened. The cows were dead … killed by a lightning bolt that had struck

the maple. I saw the stark horror on Father’s face, and Mother’s tear streaked cheeks, and I knew without a doubt that we would never recover the loss. What I saw next, once the storm had blown itself out, was Father and the brothers, walking behind the team of horses, pulling the double whiffle tree and heading to the west hill. One by one the dead Holsteins were dragged to the gravel pit and buried. The news of our loss spread quickly through the community of Northcote. Father said it could have been worse. Our young heifers were in the enclosure close to the barn, and two cows, for their own reasons had decided to stay at the bottom of the hill. And as always happened when tragedy struck in our farm community, one by one, neighbours responded. I saw them walking down our long lane leading a heifer or a cow over to our farm almost completely replacing our loss with a simple shake of a hand and a few words. That’s how things were done in the ’30s. As well as our terrible loss, the lightning strike only confirmed in Mother’s mind that storms were not to be taken lightly, but treated as the real danger they could be, and sadly sometimes were.

Hair, aesthetic studios set up in Kenwood Centre

SUBMITTED

Gayle Cunningham runs Pretty in the Prior iin the Kenwood Centre.

Business – The Kenwood Corporate Centre is now home to Dawn Till Dusk Studio and Pretty in the Prior. Dawn Till Dusk is a hair and make-up business run by Dawn MacAdam. Gayle Cunningham’s Pretty in the Prior focuses on aesthetics and make-up. The Kenwood Corporate Centre provides a rustic but characteristic feel, along with a modern industrial day twist, say the two women.

“We think that it is the most unique building in Arnprior. That’s why we chose it for our place and guests,” said MacAdam. “I’m Excited that Dawn Till Dusk Studio and Pretty In The Prior have chosen to move into the Kenwood Corporate Centre,” said facility manager Mark Nibourg.“They are a great addition to the Kenwood Corporate Centre. The services they offer will complement the many services already

provided at the centre.” “This is the exact place and feel that I was looking for to start my own business,” said Cunningham. “After working for high end spa/ salons for the past nine years, this space is the perfect fit.” “Our passion is hair, make-up and aesthetics,” said MacAdam. “We promise that our passion will show in our work. When you are in love with what you do, you are fabulous at it.”

ONTARIO ENERGY BOARD NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS OF ENBRIDGE GAS DISTRIBUTION INC. Enbridge Gas Distribution Inc. has applied to change its rates. Learn more. Have your say. Enbridge has applied to the Ontario Energy Board with a 5-year rate plan. The plan would decrease rates in 2014 and then increase them in 2015 and 2016. The annual bill decrease for an average residential customer is $3 in 2014 followed by increases of $12 in 2015 and $27 in 2016. The bill changes in 2017 and 2018 will be filed with the Board at a later date. The rate plan is proposed to begin on January 1, 2014. Other customers, including businesses, may be affected as well. THE ONTARIO ENERGY BOARD IS HOLDING A PUBLIC HEARING The Ontario Energy Board (OEB) will hold a public hearing to consider Enbridge’s request. We will question the company on its case for its rate plan. We will also hear arguments from individuals and from groups that represent residential and business customers. At the end of this hearing, the OEB will decide on the rate plan. The OEB is an independent and impartial public agency. We make decisions that serve the public interest. Our goal is to promote a financially viable and efficient energy sector that provides you with reliable energy services at a reasonable cost. BE INFORMED AND HAVE YOUR SAY You have the right to information regarding this application and to be involved in the process. You can: • Review Enbridge’s application on the OEB’s website now. • Sign up to observe the proceeding by receiving OEB documents related to the hearing. • File a letter with your comments, which will be considered during the hearing. • Become an active participant (called an intervenor). Apply by August 17, 2013 or the hearing will go ahead without you and you will not receive any further notice of the proceeding. • At the end of the process, review the OEB’s decision and its reasons on our website. LEARN MORE These proposed charges relate to Enbridge’s distribution services. Our file number for this case is EB-2012-0459. To learn more about this hearing, find instructions on how to file letters or become an intervenor, or to access any document related to this case please enter that file number at the OEB website: www.ontarioenergyboard.ca/notice. You can also phone our Consumer Relations Centre at 1-877-632-2727 with any questions. ORAL VS. WRITTEN HEARINGS There are two types of OEB hearings – oral and written. The Board intends to hold an oral hearing on this matter. PRIVACY If you write a letter of comment or sign up to observe the hearing, your name and the content of your letter or the documents you file with the OEB will be put on the public record and the OEB website. However, your personal telephone number, home address and email address will be removed. If you are a business, all your information will remain public.

A Blizzard of help for CHEO Aug. 8 Business – The Dairy Queen outlet in Renfrew is taking part in an annual fundraiser for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) next week. On Miracle Treat Day Thursday, Aug. 8, $1 or more from every Blizzard bought at participating Dairy Queen locations goes to Children’s Miracle Network hospitals. In this area, the money goes to CHEO. Co-workers, friends and family can pre-order DQ Blizzards and have them ready for pick-up Aug. 8. In addition, for the second year in a row, a Facebook RSVP to Miracle Treat Day will be matched with a $1 donation to the cause - up to $50,000. “Together we can provide hope and healing to sick children in your community,” says a DQ news release announcing Miracle Treat Day. “Let’s make miracles happen.” The event raises funds for 170 children’s hospitals across Canada and the U.S. Donations from each community go to the hospitals serving that area. Since 1983, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals has raised more than $4.7 billion, most of it $1 at a time. The donations have gone to support research and training, purchase equipment, and pay for uncompensated care, all in support of the mission to save and improve the lives of as many children as possible.

McLobster comes to the Valley Business – Arnprior’s McDonald’s Canada is serving a McLobster sandwich for the first time. A popular offering in Maritime Canada, the McLobster went on Ontario McDonald’s menus last week and will remain there until Aug. 23. “Ontarians have been asking us to serve the McLobster for years,” said Anne Parks, the restaurant chain’s director of menu management. “We listened and are excited to bring the McLobster and deliver an authentic Maritime taste experience our customers in Ontario can enjoy.” Parks pointed out that Ontarians consume more fish sandwiches than in other places in Canada, so bringing the item to the province made good business sense. “In fact, more than 40 per cent of the fish sandwiches, including Filet-O-Fish, are sold in Ontario, so we felt strongly that the McLobster would be a real hit if we brought it here,” said Parks. The McLobster was also recently updated in both Atlantic Canada and Ontario to include a lemon mayonnaise-style sauce. McDonald’s Canada first introduced the McLobster as a seasonal delicacy in Atlantic Canada more than a decade ago.

Everybody Picnic! The 14th annual Seniors Picnic Barbecue hosted by the Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program (ABMSHP) was held July 18 under sunny skies. Success of the event is attributed to Mother Nature and the help of many volunteers Thank you to everyone who donated time and products to the event. As well, thank you to all who attended. Buns were in demand as more than 260 guests were served a barbecued hamburger by Patti Jennings, above, and others during the Seniors picnic barbecue.

News - The cats at the Arnprior and District Humane Society have an 8-year-old partially to thank for their continuous food supply. After hearing that the society was in need of more dry food to feed its feline population, Charlie Flowers was spurred into action. He started his Cans 4 Cats campaign with the goal of raising a total of $3,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because that is tons of money and people and cats need it,â&#x20AC;? said Charlie. The money he raises not only helps keep the shelter cats fed, but also prevents these cans from ending up in the dump. This idea was wholly and enthusiastically supported by the humane society. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The food supply at our local no-kill shelter is in constant peril and we currently have 160 cat and kitten mouths to feed,â&#x20AC;? said Lise Bain, member of the Arnprior and District Humane Society board of directors in an email. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been an especially bad spring/ summer season for abandoned/stray kittens, so Charlieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family dropping off food every few months has been a great help.â&#x20AC;? The young lad attends AJ Charbonneau Public School and will be going into Grade 3 in September. He started the venture as a 7year-old who was deeply sensitive to both the plight of the environment and that of homeless animals. Through his school eco-group, he got the idea for this project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started Cans 4 Cats a few months ago,â&#x20AC;? said Charlie. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here what I do: collect pop cans, beer cans, recycle them. My mom takes them to a recycle (centre) which gives her cash. I then take the money and buy cat food for the Arnprior Humane Society. They have lots of cats there that need food.â&#x20AC;? His efforts have not gone unnoticed. He was nominated for the Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Awards and will appear on TVOKids in September. He also received a certificate from the Town of Arnprior, recognizing all his fundraising efforts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very aware of his community,â&#x20AC;? said

teers who spend countless hours helping care and comfort our homeless animals. Support in all forms is always needed and welcomed at the shelter and we are thankful to have a community that recognizes the need to fight to keep the shelter operational.â&#x20AC;? Donations of cans and bottles can be dropped off at either the Humane Society shelter or at Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Auto Glass on William Street in Arnprior. Charlie is also wiling to come pick up empties. He or his mother Penny Flowers can be reached at 613-622-5542 or at his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business at 613-623-6499.

Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Did you see the nice clean white walls on the outside of the Legion Hall? What an undertaking! Congratulations House & Grounds and all the many, many volunteers and all who gave a hand. Next project, pave the driveway before it gets cold again and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be done for another year. The summer is moving off way too quickly, and that means we will soon be in the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;reallyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; busy season. The third week of September is always Legion Week and they are planning for the annual Veterans Dinner with a bit of a change. Yes, there will still be a roast beef dinner, the band will still play the regimental marches, there will be a special guest speaker and everyone will enjoy the comradeship of old friends

Sunday, Sept. 15, but it will all happen in the afternoon instead of the evening. Cocktail hourcash bar at 1300 hours, dinner at 1400 hours. There will be one of your favourite entertainers in the lounge after dinner for those that would like to stay awhile The executive will be busy planning the rest of that week with something on every night in the hall or lounge. Watch for flyers and the sign out front and, of course, the website. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great place and week to join up with old and new friends. Bingo will still be on Monday night, Thursday night is band practice and is open to all to come and listen and dance too if you want to. Friday will be the regular burgers at lunch time, with euchre and golf tournaments both on Saturday to close off the week of celebrations. August and September brings out the plans, bulletin boards

and signs for what the fall will bring. General meetings are back on schedule in September, second Wednesday every month and it would be encouraging if more of the 400 members would attend. Try to make an effort this year folks. The executive appreciates seeing you there. There is also a big membership/recruiting drive taking place right now, so if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been into the branch lately, stop in soon. Recruit a friend and get a chance to win a great cruise. Join the Legion. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for you, and for the community.

The Newfoundland Jigs dinner originally scheduled for Sept. 14 has been postponed. Some people have already been planning to attend, but it will be held at a later date.

38 Arnprior Chronicle-Guide EMC - Thursday, August 1, 2013

Breeds with shorter noses (such as Pugs, Shih Tzus, Pekingese, Bulldogs and Boxers) as well as very young and senior dogs are especially vulnerable. Give your dog extra water. You will need to refill your dogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water bowl more often than usual on Pet Talk very hot days. Offer your dog several ways to cool off. Leave a fan on in a place where your dog can sit IAN STUPP in front of it, add some ice cubes to his water or offer him a cool treat. A Kong thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stuffed with wet food or peanut butter, then frozen, is cooling and a great way to keep your dog entertained. Never leave your dog alone inside a car. Even with the windows cracked, the inside of a car can heat up to 120 degrees in a matter of minutes on a warm day. And leaving the air conditioning on is no guarantee that your dog will be safe. Take your walks in the morning or evening. The intense heat of midday can overwhelm your dog during a walk. Exercise your dog during the cooler hours and, if your dog is in the sun for an extended period of time, apply doggie sunscreen. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave your dog alone outside for more than a few minutes. Even in the shade, a dog exposed to extreme heat and humidity is at risk for heatstroke.Avoid hot sidewalks. Your dogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paws can easily become burned on hot surfaces, including pavement, blacktop and sand. Groom your dog regularly. A clean, untangled coat can help ward off summer skin problems and help your dog stay cool. Shaving long, thick matted coats will help any dog feel more comfortable in a heat wave. Speak to your local grooming professional for advice.Be alert for coolant leaking from your vehicle. Dogs are attracted to the sweet taste of coolant and just a small amount can make your dog sick or even cause death. If you believe your dog may have ingested coolant, take him to the vet right away. Use common sense, if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too hot for you than it is definitely too hot for you pet! Stay safe! Ian owns and operates Wags & Whiskers Dog and Cat Grooming and Puppy Kindergarten at 118 John St. N., Arnprior.

Leon Russell masterful at Neat Cafe Thomas R. Allnutt

Opinion â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;What becomes a legend most? 50 dates in 50 cities.â&#x20AC;? ... Lou Reed. Leon Russell is a man, a musician, a songwriter and performer whose 50-plus year career spans the history of rock and roll music. He started playing piano at a young age, and by 17 got to tour for two months in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Killerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Jerry Lee Lewisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; band. He went on to play session piano on almost all of Phil Spectorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wall of Soundâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; recordings. He has worked with Frank Sinatra, Ike and Tina Turner, The Monkees, The Byrds, The Rolling Stones, The Beach Boys, and more recently with Elton John. He is probably best known for his legendary tour with Joe Cocker and Delany and Bonnie, turned into the concert ďŹ lm â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Mad Dogs and Englishmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, and for his contributions, also on ďŹ lm, to George Harrisonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Concert for Bangladeshâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. On July 1 in the Neat CafĂŠ in Burnstown, a small venue that housed at most 100 people, I got to see the legend up close and personal. From a maximum six feet away I studied his every move and when he took off his iconic glasses at the end of his opening song, watched his eyes as they scanned the room, turned his thought inward and gave silent instructions to his band. At age 71, Leon Russell is still working it, and doing â&#x20AC;&#x153;what becomes a legend most.â&#x20AC;? His set-list included sped up versions of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;A Hard Rainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s A Gonna Fallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Delta Ladyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Out in the Woodsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Back to the Islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Stranger in a Strange Landâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. When his band left the stage, Leon performed some of his more personal songs, including â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Ballad of Mad Dogs and Englishmenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Magic Mirrorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and his signature piece, R0012225763

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;A Song for Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. He rocked â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Roll in My Sweet Babyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Armsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, The Stonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wild Horsesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, The Beatlesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Just Saw a Faceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and Willy Nelsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Georgia on my Mindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. He and his band closed the show with a few rock and roll medleys, including â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Jumpinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Jack Flash with â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Papa was a Rolling Stoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Kansas Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Great Balls of Fire with â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Roll Over Beethovenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. During Jumpinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, I could swear I could see in his eyes the 29-year-old Leon, as he was, back on stage with Harrison, Clapton and crew. It has always seemed to me that even though our bodiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; age and the pains of life are often-times cruel, in our minds we see ourselves as we were when we were at our best. So it seemed with Leon. I have very few complaints. I felt that the tempos on the classics could have been a little slower with a little more attention to the nuances of the work, but the performance choices are Leonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to make, not mine. The sound could have been cleaner and the microphones for both Leon and his bass player could have been sharper, but those are technical complaints. Leonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voice is rough, gravelly and his singing style idiosyncratic. He is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;one of a kindâ&#x20AC;? singer whose â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Willy Nelson on speedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; stylings are uniquely his own. His piano playing was top notch, every ďŹ ll perfectly placed, no subtlety overlooked. Leon is a honky-tonk master with no peer. Leon Russell, journeyman musician, has nothing to prove. He is living history and a vital artist who has worked hard to earn his place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. For those of you who have a chance to see the man before he hangs up his hat, do it and enjoy. We will never see his likes again.

Born July 23rd, 1962 in Arnprior, ONT - Passed away July 20th, 2013 in Radisson, SK After a long and gruelling struggle with cancer, Steve was ﬁnally able to break that mooring of misery and is now away and gone with the old ones and is sailin’ around in the ages. He leaves to mourn his beloved and beautiful Holly-Go Lightly: his wife, Monica - the true ﬂower of his love and his daughter, Lindsay - a gracious chip off the old block...angels both. He also leaves his best friend and brother, Michael (Arch) and his lovely bride, Cathy of Arnprior, ONT and their growing brood. Steve will also be missed by his extended family from the valley and the prairies and other ports away; by his blonde cutie, Lisa; his steady lunch dates - Jerry, Lola; his good and solid chum Stan Holmes - know what Stan? Close enough is good enough. And a further grand pride of friends too numerous to mention. He also leaves a kid-sister, Kerri of Cornwall, ONT who always made him laugh... carry on Ker; as well as a son, Justin of Sooke, BC. The family would like to thank Dr. Nave and her amazing staff for all the years of kind guidance and care and the good souls at Home Care, especially Linda Hosegood who truly was a beacon of light in the last, dark days. Steve did not want a funeral service, but always said that if somebody wanted to throw a prayer or two his way, to feel free or, if you want, give a bum a buck or sign your organ donor card. Finally, it was Steve’s wish that you consider him in the same light as a long-ago clergyman once considered one of his departed. “Death is nothing at all. It does not count. I have only slipped into the next room. Nothing has happened. Everything remains exactly as it was... laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me....life means all that it ever meant... what is this death but a negligible accident? I am waiting for you, just round the corner. All is well, nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before. How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again. (Henry Scott Holland). Please join us in celebrating Stephen’s life at the home of Michael & Cathy Schnob at 34 Kinsmen Crescent Arnprior on Sunday, August 4th beginning at 2:00 p.m. Tall tales and very long lies are expected. Sail-on Stevie-boy, sail-on...

Those special years will not return, When we were all together, But with the love within our hearts, You will always walk with us forever. Until we meet again. Sadly missed by your cherished wife Adele, daughters and grandchildren

In memory of Daddy, Arnold Oattes, who passed away on August 3, 1987. The days ﬂy so swiftly by, And, days turn into years But memories of my Dad’s death No longer, brings sad tears. I’m grateful for the time we had; Though I’d have preferred more He “lives on” in “spirit” now; But, still as loved as before. Luvya, Helen & Murray

IN MEMORIAM

The Broken Chain We little knew that morning, that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone. For part of us went with you, the day God called you Home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

EMERALD ASH BORER - COMING TO AN ASH TREE NEAR YOU This little beetle is a highly destructive insect native to the Asian Continent. It was discovered in the Windsor/ Detroit corridor in 2002. It has since destroyed millions of trees. It was discovered in the City of Ottawa in 2008. Since that time the City of Ottawa, Leeds and Grenville have been quarantined and the movement of ash wood and wood products is prohibited. The City of Ottawa removed 800 affected trees in the winter of 2011. The handling of ash trees that have been affected by emerald ash borer can take special techniques. Gardiner Tree Trimming & Removal Ltd. strives to use the safest methods possible to remove dead and dangerous trees of all species. Our methods use equipment such as a crane, bucket or excavator as the job requires. Gardiner Tree Trimming & Removal Ltd. offers TreeAzin® Systemic Insecticide. It is an injectable insecticide formulated with azadirachtin, an extract of neem tree seeds (not neem oil). TreeAzin is registered by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) (PCP 30559).

WHAT TO LOOK FOR: EAB is a slender, elongate insect about 1/3 - 1/2 inch long. It is widest just behind the head, gradually tapering back to the abdomen. It is a bright iridescent green to copper-green color, often with a copper colored area behind the head. Its body underneath the wings is a purplish-magenta color. Trees typically are killed in two to four years. When trees are ﬁrst attacked by EABs, the symptoms are inconspicuous and hard to notice. By the end of the second year, thinning foliage and dieback in the crown begins to be

46 Arnprior Chronicle-Guide EMC - Thursday, August 1, 2013

apparent. By the third year, there is severe dieback and little foliage. Ash can tolerate small numbers of EAB larvae but trees are girdled and killed when populations become more numerous. When the adults emerge, they create small, 1/8 inch D-shaped exit holes that are characteristic of this insect, although they can be hard to see. If you were to remove the bark on the trunk of a tree showing these symptoms, you should also ﬁnd the larval galleries. Woodpecker attacks on ash could also indicate the presence of emerald ash borers.

Landrigan Street Reconstruction Between Edey Street and William Street West The firm B.R. Fulton Construction Ltd. has been contracted by the Town of Arnprior to carry out the rehabilitation works on Landrigan Street, from Edey Street to William Street West. Construction is expected to begin on August 6th, 2013. The construction will include the replacement of the existing sanitary sewer, sewer services to the property line, and a portion of the watermain between Edey Street and 140 Landrigan Street. The project will also include the replacement of curb and sidewalk and the complete reconstruction of the roadway. Construction activities are expected to last approximately two months, with an anticipated completion date scheduled for September 30th, 2013. In order to safely and efficiently complete these infrastructure improvements, Landrigan Street will have reduced access during construction, and will be limited to local and emergency vehicle access at times. During various stages of the work, direct access to driveways may be restricted for short durations. The Town of Arnprior would like to ask for your help in ensuring a safe and efficient work zone. If it is not practical or convenient to avoid the construction zone entirely, please drive with caution and follow the directions provided by the posted construction signs or traffic control persons.
