Local dog’s neglect makes news worldwide John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

Huge penning fields Fitzroy Harbour rider Jeff Schlievert and his quarter-horse Tucker are part of the 7 Class qualification round. The Arnprior Fair’s four-class field attracted more than 230 penning teams from far and wide.

STEVE NEWMAN/METROLAND

News - The plight of a neglected dog found wandering in a rural area just east of Arnprior, dragging a heavy chain padlocked to his collar, has touched hearts around the globe. Leo the Lionheart, as he has been called by the Arnprior and District Humane Society, has become a cause célèbre. Since his story was distributed by the information-gathering media site Viral Nova, it has been seen by people from as far away as Russia, said Arnprior Humane Society shelter manager Stephanie Cantrell. His story has been viewed by hundreds of thousands of computer users across the world and made newscasts in several major Canadian and U.S. markets. Cantrell said Leo was spotted by a good Samaritan on July 26 on a road somewhere in the Galetta-KinburnFitzroy area (the shelter doesn’t want to be too specific as the case is under investigation). As the woman had adopted a pet from the Arnprior shelter, she took the distressed Golden Doodle there.

JOHN CARTER/METROLAND

Once Leo lost his shackles it became clear he has a wonderful, easy-going temperament, notes Arnprior Humane Society shelter employee Sinead Egan. Cantrell said shelter staff were “horrified” at Leo’s state. While the dog had obviously been fed regularly (in fact, he was overweight), he had no muscle tone because of the lack

of exercise and his coat was a “huge, matted mess” embedded with feces and urine. See IT TOOK, page 2

When Leo was brought into the shelter, his hair was incredibly matted.

It took three hours to shave 10 pounds of fur Continued from front

He couldn’t walk or sit properly and the matts were so thick on his paws, they had turned his pads to mush. He still has trouble walking on gravel three weeks later. Despite the neglect and his “horrible condition,” Leo was a happy boy and greeted everyone with a smile, said Cantrell. As it was a Saturday afternoon and local veterinarian offices were closed, the shelter staff contacted Dr. Lea Button of the Valley Vet clinic in Carleton Place, the emergency on-call office that weekend. It took three hours to shave about 10 pounds of hair off Leo, who had to be sedated during the marathon operation. During the shaving he began to resemble a lion, so he was given the name Leo. “It was heartbreaking to think that someone was feeding him daily and had trimmed the hair around his face but still allowed him to suffer day after day,” said shelter staff. The society reported Leo’s case to authorities and an investigation is underway. “I just hope he (Leo’s former owner) doesn’t have another dog,” said Cantrell. Leo has taken up residence at the

Shelter staff report he is good-natured, smart and “has quickly stolen the hearts of all that have met him.” Because of the publicity, a large number of people have already inquired about adopting Leo. However, because of his special circumstances, the shelter wants to ensure his new home is a proper fit. In the meantime, the humane society has set up a fund to help pay Leo’s vet bills.

News – Proud of what’s been accomplished by the current Arnprior council, Lynn Grinstead is seeking another four year-term as councillor. Grinstead, elected to council for the first time in 2010, wants to follow through on many of the initiatives started during this council term. “We work together well ‌ we’ve accomplished a lot,â€? she said. “We’ve put the town’s affairs in order. Now that we’ve set the groundwork, it’s time to take the next step.â€? Among the many initiatives Grinstead wants to continue to work on are downtown revitalization, waterfront development, commercial expansion and “continued sustainable growth.â€? She admits disappointment in the bogging down of the development of the Town Square that she anticipated would play a major role in linking the downtown and the waterfront. However, she says “things take time ‌ you can’t snap your fingers and expect it to be done.â€? However, she promises to be a “strong voiceâ€? pushing for downtown revitalization hand-in-hand with development of the waterfront with a

150th Anniversary Committee will be valuable moving forward. She is hopeful Priorpalooza, a music festival she was instrumental in launching, will evolve back to being what it was “meant to be,� a major summer festival that “will highlight the amazing talent that our community has to offer.� She said she would like to see the downtown Business Improvement Association pull itself back together and work in step with the town on the key downtown revitalization project. “Pretty streetlights by themselves aren’t enough to bring people downtown. It will take all of us working together,� she said. Grinstead said that she is optimistic the Recreation Master Plan process will come up with all sorts of possibilities to shape the town’s recreation programs and facilities for the next 10 years. “I remember a very vibrant recreation department when I was growing up, and although we have several amazing programs today, I feel that that is room for more, bringing back things such as house league softball, etc.� She said the community has the responsibility to create the opportunities for greater participation for

Arnprior Dragon Boat Club supports family of local lad with rare disease News - Carolyn Miller, a member of the Arnprior Dragon Boat Club, is so excited that her organization will donate a portion of its proceeds from their Dragon Boat Fun Day activities on Aug. 24 during Arnprior’s White Pine Festival towards her nephew. Dylan ‘the Champ’ Van Driel, who born July 14, 2011, has Vein of Galen Malformation (VOGM), a rare and life-threatening disease that has greatly damaged his brain. Dylan is strictly tube fed (nothing by mouth) through his GJ tube that runs through the stomach and intestine. In addition to the complicated feedings, Dylan has bouts of seizures. The potential for a crisis remains real each day of his life. Though their lives have dramatically changed with Dylan’s limitations and diagnosis, his family has not lost hope. They believe that Dylan will continue to surprise them with small but precious accomplishments. “This is not just a story about Dylan,� says the Dragon Boat club. “This is a story about you - our community.

“We want to share our story of Dylan because we want to create awareness for Dylan’s life and his needs.� They explain that the family cannot provide for Dylan without an extended community of support. They need help financially and emotionally. In the next year, they need a wheelchair-accessible van as well as modifications made to his home to allow them to continue to care for Dylan as a family. They will be appealing to several charities for help, but acknowledge the reality that charity support is limited and not guaranteed. They believe community support is long-term and provides the foundation needed to provide a better quality of life for Dylan and our family. They need the community’s support. Visit www.wheelsforvandriels.com to learn more or become friends with Dylan VanDriel on Facebook to keep in touch. The Arnprior Dragon Boat Club is proud to support its little friend Dylan and his wonderful family and appeals to the community to please come out

to the beach at Robert Simpson Park on Sunday, Aug. 24 between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. to show support by donating $10 for a 30-minute Dragon Boat trip on the beautiful Ottawa and Madawaska rivers. Other direct contributions to Dylan and his family will also be accepted. Ages 9 and up are welcome. And, if you are really lucky you may receive a balloon, a tattoo, have your face painted, or even win a dinner for two at East Side Mario’s Arnprior. “Plan to visit our tent at the Robert Simpson Park main beach as part of your Arnprior White Pine Festival celebrations,� urges the club.

The family of Dylan ‘the Champ’ Van Driel is seeking community help as they deal with his devastating disease. The Arnprior Dragon Boat Club is helping out by donating proceeds of rides being given Aug. 24 during the White Pine Festival. BETTY O’SHAUGHNESSY/SUBMITTED

LED streetlight conversion begins John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

News – Arnprior’s conversion to LED streetlights began Monday. A Kingston crew from RW Electric started on the project, which is expected to take between a month to six weeks to complete. RW Electric has been contracted by Realterm Energy to do the work. Project installation manager Michael Miller said if conversions in other communities area any indication, the new lights will provide savings up to 67 per cent on electricity costs and 75 per cent on maintenance.

The lights are under warranty for 10 years and will likely last 20, he added. The crew, which is aiming to replace about 40 lights a day, started in the Avenues area of town. As some of the town’s lights are different wattages, they don’t always change all the lights in an area at once. But they will come back to finish the job with lights of different wattages later in the project. The job could take even less time if a second crew arrives to help. In reporting the project’s start to town council Monday, town CAO Michael Wildman said the savings to the town “will be significant.” As well, the lights are much more environmentally friendly then the current lighting..

News – A potentially dangerous ďŹ re was quickly doused at the McGonigal Street end of the former CPR train trestle in Arnprior on Saturday, Aug. 2. OPP are investigating as the ďŹ re is suspected to be arson. Arnprior ďŹ re chief John Okum reports that the smoke was noticed by neighbours in the Carss Street area about 7:40 p.m. The neighbours and ďŹ reďŹ ghters extinguished the ďŹ re in the timbers at the west end of the trestle before it caused any signiďŹ cant damage. Okum said the ďŹ re could have been a tricky one to ďŹ ght if it had caught hold because of access difďŹ culties and the fact the trestle timbers are soaked in creosote, which makes for a hot ďŹ re. He noted that a ďŹ re on the east side of the trestle a number of years ago was also suspected to be an arson ďŹ re. Okum said while the Aug. 2 ďŹ re appears to be a case of mischief, it’s a serious issue. The perpetrators could be charged under the Criminal Code with both arson and trespassing as the area is fenced off by the town, he said. OPP Constable Helen Paterson is investigating. The Arnprior ďŹ re department had a busy time last week, responding to several alarms and attending when someone was trapped in an elevator in a church in town. The person escaped uninjured after the elevator reset itself and the malfunctioning door ďŹ nally opened. The ďŹ re department was also on hand for demolition derbies Thursday and Saturday at the Arnprior Fair, helping control ďŹ res breaking out in the battered cars and attending to a driver who was knocked unconscious in Thursday’s action.

CENTENNIAL COMMEMORATION OF THE GREAT WAR One hundred years ago this month, in August of 1914, Canada followed England into WWI – a war that was originally seen as a bit of a lark but which would eventually cost the lives of more than 60,000 young Canadians and leave nearly 200,000 of them wounded. On Saturday, August 16th, from 1 to 4 pm, the Middleville Museum will present a picture of what the war meant to the small towns in Eastern Ontario – in a very different world than the one we know now. Come and enter that world; we’ll even have a tasting of a (freshbaked) ‘War Cake’ the recipe for which was urged on Canadian households to save on sugar, eggs, butter (and practically everything else).

Ramp up plan to clean our river

T

he heritage and history of the Ottawa River was celebrated last week at Pinhey’s Point Historic Site. Today, it is the source of drinking water for millions living along its banks and plays a key role in providing recreation for both local residents and in attracting tourists to the area. It’s encouraging to see the river’s importance celebrated by our downstream neighbours. Now, we can only hope they will follow up by joining in on joint efforts, backed by all levels of government, to protect and clean up the river. The number of times the nation’s capital has been forced to shut down its popular swimming areas due to a rise in E. coli levels, caused by animal droppings washed into the water and rainfall, which causes sewage systems to overflow into the river is worriesome. We just hope it doesn’t get so bad that Ottawa residents don’t start flooding to our area to overrun our pristine beaches. Some tourists are fine. But get too many and it becomes counterproductive. Then nobody will come. The root of the problem is aging infrastructure. Ottawa, for example has an old network of pipes, built between the late 1800s and 1960, that carry both storm water and untreated sewage, creating combined sewer overflows. Last month, millions of litres of un-

treated sewage was dumped into the river during heavy rain storms. The overflow is supposed to be treated at sewage plants, but the city is forced to divert the mixture into the river to prevent possible flooding and sewer backups. The city is now in the fifth year of the Ottawa River Action Plan, a combination of 17 projects aimed at improving the health of the river, including a $195-million plan to build large underground storage tanks to capture sewage in the event a treatment plant can’t process it fast enough. The plan aims to virtually eliminate the dumping of sewage into the Ottawa River. The city hopes to cover one third of the cost with the federal and provincial governments kicking in the rest of the funding. The provincial government says it supports the plan but is waiting for the federal government to commit funding until making any commitment. Meanwhile a new round of federal infrastructure funding is scheduled to begin this year. Our local MPs, including those upstream from Ottawa, and even those who do not support heritage designation for the river, need to take action and press the government to provide the needed money as soon as possible. Right now we have a massive natural feature that is nice to look at but too often dangerous to touch.

Junior B Packers need your help To the Editor: This year will be my 10th year involved with the Arnprior Jr. B Packers and it’s looking to be another good year of Jr. hockey.

The continuing work on the four-laning of Highway 17 between Campbell and Scheel drives resulted in the closure of Scheel Drive, both north and south of the highway on Monday. The closure will remain in effect well into the fall. It cuts off a popular short cut some local motorists were taking to get around the delays on the highway because of the construction. However, Campbell Drive, which has been closed off from the highway for the past month, reopened late last week.

Parade, my puppy, is from the Canadian Guide Dog (CGD) Centre in Manotick and has been their charge since she was 10 weeks old. She came to live with me only a few hours later and could be with me until she is 18 months old. The CGD Centre have its own breeding program but also receive and send puppies to other organizations doing the same training as the National Training Centre in Manotick.. When the puppies are approximately eight weeks old, they are fostered by the volunteer puppy walkers who will treat them like their own puppies, socializing them, loving them and providing the training required by the centre. All financial requirements are provided by the centre, including food, veterinarian services and even a kennel, collar, leash and toy, which arrive with the puppy. Then the fun begins. The usual training

and outings and special playing rules are put in place and become their first introduction to rules and regulations. The centre also supplies instructions and obedience training, starting with puppy classes and teaching socialization with other puppies. The centre’s latest endeavour is the Assistance Dogs Division, started in 2010. These trained dogs provide assistance with mobility disabilities. This is very popular and has been very successful in assisting a number of clients. Canadian Guide Dogs has a detailed matching program for each client and each dog. All costs to operate the CGD centre is covered by donations, fundraisers and legacies. On Saturday, Aug 16 from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m., the centre will hold an open house with tours, training demonstrations and more at the National Training Centre , 4120 Rideau Valley Dr. North in Manotick.

OPP nab suspected drunk driver in drive-thru News – The hazy, lazy days of summer are causing police problems with five impaired drivers nabbed last week, including one in the Arnprior McDonald’s drive-thru. Arnprior OPP report that on Sunday, Aug. 10 at 12:46 a.m., officers responded to a report of a possible impaired driver in the drive-thru lineup at the McDonald’s restaurant. Officers attended and located a female driver in a black pick-up truck who had been drinking. She failed a roadside alcohol screening test and was arrested. Following further breath tests at the detachment, the 25-year-old Mississippi Mills woman

was charged with driving over 80 mgs of alcohol in her blood. She was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew on Sept. 10. OPP Constable Ryan Besner investigated. In another case on the same day at almost the same time, OPP Const. Colleen McGrath stopped a vehicle on Highway 17near Miller Road in McNab-Braeside at 12:36 a.m. During the course of the investigation the male driver was found to have been drinking, report police. Following breath tests at the detachment a 45-year-old Laurentian Valley man was charged with impaired driving and driving

over 80 mgs. He was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew on Aug. 27. On Saturday, Aug. 9 at 10:20 p.m., officers were dispatched to investigate the report of a vehicle in the ditch on Lochwinnoch Road in Horton. Police suspected the female driver had been drinking. After failing a roadside alcohol screening tests, she was arrested and taken to the detachment for further breath tests. Following the investigation, a 19-year-old Ottawa woman was charged with driving over 80 mgs. She was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew on Sept. 10. OPP Const. Raul Pasta Junior led the investigation. On Friday, Aug. 8 at 4:35 p.m., OPP Sgt. Don Francis was stationary near the intersection of Highway 17 and Castleford Drive in Horton. A driver approached the officer and advised

he was concerned about the driving of another vehicle. The vehicle was pointed out to the officer and he followed the suspect vehicle. Police allege the driver committed several driving offences and stopped him on Julie Lane in Horton. The male driver had been drinking and failed a roadside alcohol screening test. Following further breath tests at the detachment, a 60-year-old Horton man was charged with driving over 80 mgs. He was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew on Aug. 27. The fifth impaired case in the Renfrew detachment area, which includes Arnprior, was on Rafting Road and resulted in charges for a 19-year-old Petawawa man. Police are encouraging citizens to call 9-1-1 if they spot a suspected impaired driver. “This is treated as a life-threatening emergency,” they say.

News – An Arnprior homeowner awoke on Saturday, Aug. 9 to find their car gone. Arnprior OPP report that the Atkinson Street homeowner discovered someone had entered their home overnight and stolen a set of keys for the vehicle. When the homeowners noticed their black 2002 Ford Escape was missing from the driveway, they realized a purse had been searched and a set of keys stolen. It is believed the thief entered through a sliding patio door. OPP Constable Ken Rusaw is investigating. Meanwhile, vandals were at work last week in a couple of areas of Arnprior. Someone damaged the vacuum at the Spartan Car Wash on Madawaska Boulevard in Arnprior. The damage was discovered on Friday, Aug. 8. Const. Rusaw is investigating. Several ticket booths were damaged at the

Arnprior Fairgrounds the day before the fair opened on Wednesday, Aug. 6. OPP Const. Colleen McGrath is investigating. Eggs were thrown at a home and into the backyard on McDonald Street South in Arnprior. No suspects were seen. Renfrew and Arnprior OPP report the theft of valuables from unlocked vehicles is continuing in this area. To prevent being victimized, remove valuables, including wallets and personal identification from vehicles when not in use, and get in the habit of locking your vehicle, they urge. “Lock it or lose it.” In all, Renfrew OPP, which includes Arnprior, responded to 174 calls for service from Aug. 7-10. Three calls were for domestic disputes, with one man charged with assault and domestic mischief.

Going to the country: thieves target rural cars, homes News - A theft-from-vehicles problem that has been mainly limited to Arnprior and Renfrew appears to be moving out into the country. The OPP crime report for last week includes the theft of a change purse from a vehicle on Lauraine Crescent in Greater Madawaska and a wallet from a vehicle on Fraser Road near Burnstown. Both cars were left unlocked. Four unlocked vehicles on Madeleine Street in Cotieville were entered and had an IPod, GPS and loose change stolen on the Saturday of the long weekend. Renfrew OPP Community Services Officer Janice Sawbridge said that many thieves tend to be lazy and pick on vehicles, both in town and in the country that are left unlocked. She has two key pieces of advice for vehicleowners, no matter where they are: remove all

valuables and lock up when leaving your car unattended. The OPP report also details thefts from rural homes on Olmstead-Jeffrey Lake Road and Highway 60 in Admaston-Bromley. Thieves stole jewelry, cash, prescription medicine, and aluminum and iron parts. The calls were among 250 received last week by the Renfrew Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police, which includes the Arnprior office. Nine of the calls were for domestic disputes. One man was charged with three counts of assault, two counts of assaulting a peace officer, and single counts each of sexual assault, assault causing bodily harm, forcible confinement, choking, resisting a peace officer, and assault with intent to resist arrest. Another man was charged with assault.

Why Chipmunks make the birds sing more Michael Runtz Nature’s Way that bird song persisted later than usual through July. I noticed this not just locally but also in other regions of Ontario, and the song came not only from species that frequently produce a second set of young. One reason for the continuance of the delightful music of birds can be an abundance of food. Some species such as White-throated Sparrows and Bay-breasted Warblers are known to nest twice in one season if certain caterpillars are abundant. More nesting means more song. I suspect an abundance of

food is behind the continuance of song this summer, but not food available this year. I suspect that it relates to the bumper crops of maple keys, acorns, and other seeds and nuts produced last year. But most songbirds do not eat those items. In fact, Cedar Waxwings are about the only birds that nest late so their young can exploit fruit crops, especially those of Chokecherry. Even so, last year’s crops would not induce more song this year. And besides, Cedar Waxwings do not sing; they only utter lispy trills. So how then did last year’s edible bounty influence bird song this year? I suspect last year’s prolific crops resulted in an abundance of squirrels and chipmunks this summer. Because of the rich bounty, more of those rodents survived the winter and produced litters this year. While Eastern Chipmunks and Red and Gray squirrels eat a lot of nuts and seeds,

they also relish eggs and baby birds. In fact, Eastern Chipmunks have been found to be the major cause of nest failure in certain songbirds. With an abundance of squirrels and chipmunks around this year, I suspect that there was an increase in the pillaging of bird nests. But when birds have their nest depredated, they often re-nest, which means the need to maintain a territory persists, and so the male of the pair continues to sing. Was there really more song than usual in late summer this year? And was it because of an abundance of squirrels and chipmunks? Perhaps. Nature does work at times in mysterious ways!

Lifestyle - It seems as if summer only just arrived yet it is already on the wane. For many birds, the young are off the nest but are still being fed. And that is done by both parents for in 90 per cent of all birds, the mated pair care for the young. (Oddly in mammals, in 95 per cent of all species only the female provides the care). Usually when the young birds fledge, the male bird stops singing because the need to maintain a territory is gone. But if a pair produces a second set of eggs, his singing continues. This is typical for Eastern Bluebirds and American Robins. Incidentally, a second clutch typically contains one less egg than the first. But not all birds produce two batches of young and normally by the middle of July, except for alarm calls uttered when danger approaches, most birds fall silent. Song is typically a late spring/early summer phenomenon. This year it seemed to me

Abbott, Ferguson to run again in Pakenham ward Tiffany Lepack tlepack@perfprint.ca

News – Both incumbents representing Pakenham ward on the Mississippi Mills council are running again. Duncan Abbott has filed to run for another four-year term on council for one of two Pakenham seats. He joins Denzil Ferguson who is also seeking re-election in the Oct. 27 municipal vote.

Abbott is a retired teacher and lawyer who has lived in Pakenham and now resides in Almonte. He has spent the past four years on Mississippi Mills council and has five years experience on the former Pakenham Township council. “I have a strong connection to Pakenham. I was married there, all of my children were baptized there,” said Abbott. He said he hopes that he is able to help the residents of Pakenham im-

prove infrastructure in the village. “We need to do something about sewer and water in the village because, for the most part, it is 1950s technology,” he said. “There are new technologies to replace these things. There was always a hope that the sewer and water would come from Almonte, but everything I look at says that we are not doing that. Pakenham village is too far away.” Abbott explained that he has

taken courses researching the new technology and has seen systems of 3x5 feet that are able to support an entire sewage system. “It’s persuading people to do it, showing them and teaching them,” said Abbott. “We need to educate them on the systems and how they work.” He wants to be able to take some residents of Pakenham on a tour to show them these new systems. Abbott said that another issue that

The Watering Restrictions By-law 04-14 is designed to regulate and control the usage of water, within the Almonte Ward, in the hot summer months. Between May 1st and September 30th each year there are limitations on who can water and at what time. Odd number houses may water on odd calendar days and even numbered houses may water on even numbered days. Watering may occur between the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. each day and from only one connection. Midday is the hottest time of the day and the water is more likely to be wasted through evaporation when watering at this time. Watering from more than one connection simply uses too much water at once. A significant amount of new grass or sod is exempted from these provisions for one week. Any other violations of the by-law may result in a fine.

As well, this year voters will have the chance to vote yes or no on decreasing the size of council to seven members, with only one councillor in Pakenham, for the 2018 election. “I hope we maintain the council size as it is,â€? said Abbott. “If we reduce it, there would only be one person from Pakenham. Now you get two views ... it’s a worry to only have one view.â€? Ferguson has been an elected politician with Pakenham Township and Mississippi Mills councils for 22 years. Ferguson said he makes a point of being a face in Pakenham and cares about the community. In fact, he has lived in Pakenham for 45 years and is a retired founder and part owner of 5 Span Feed and Seed. Currently, he is a part-time farmer and is the sole proprietor of 5 Span Security Services. He is also a retired RCMP staff sergeant and public servant. He has a number of ideas to help the municipality save money for the taxpayers, including looking at partnering with Lanark County to save on policing costs. “We are at the point where Lanark County might be a better ďŹ t overall. Hope-

Ferguson said council needs to work on attracting more commercial, industrial and institutional developments to Mississippi Mills. “I think we can do a better job at selling ourselves,â€? said Ferguson. “Mississippi Mills is very fortunate, we have a lot of pluses: the fact that we have ready access to Ottawa, we have wonderful natural resources, close to major highways and we are still not big and friendly.â€? One way, he suggested, to make this happen is for the town to look at a community development position. Agriculture is also an important issue in Pakenham and Ferguson said he wants to provide as much assistance to ensure and sustain an active agriculture community. The candidates so far in the race for mayor are Ramsay Ward councillor Shaun McLaughlin, who lives in the Cedar Hill area just east of Pakenham, and Almonte ward councillor Garry Dalgity. Jane Torrance, Bernard Cameron and Alex Gillis have ďŹ led to run for the four Amonte Ward seats. Cameron and Gillis are sitting councillors. The deadline for nominations is Sept. 12.

fully it would save money and that’s what it is all about, hopefully it would save money without decreasing services and that’s not an easy thing to accomplish,� said Ferguson. Another area he is hoping to save money is working with the county on decreasing duplication of services with the town and county. TARGET DUPLICATION

For example, when it comes to snow plowing, Highway 29 is a county road but Ferguson wants to look into seeing if the county can plow some roads in Pakenham. “We are farthest end of the county and Mississippi Mills, but in the same token we do have county roads going through here. “There is no reason we can’t liaise with the county and review, in detail, the possible duplications,� said Ferguson. Another area he wants to work with the county is when it comes to bulk procurement items. For example, if three local municipalities in the county are all buying new trucks, he says they should see if they can get a better price for the three trucks together.

Young mother of two among four killed in deadly long weekend John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

News – The August Civic long weekend proved to be a deadly one in the Upper Ottawa Valley with at least four deaths and four other people seriously injured. Three of the four people killed were in their 20s, including a mother of two young children. The deaths came in three separate incidents, including a late night fall down a cliff in Horton, a choking at a Matawatchan area campsite and a night-time boating crash in the Pembroke area, The dangers of camping were driven home by the latter two incidents being investigated by the Renfrew OPP. The OPP report that on Sunday Aug. 3 at about 2 a.m., officers responded to a report of two campers who had fallen down an embankment near the First Chute of the Bonnechere River off Thomson Road in Horton.

Police officers, firefighters and paramedics found a 24-year old woman dead at the bottom of a steep incline. They rescued a 20-year-old man from Aylmer who had fallen about down the cliff and treated him for minor injuries. Reports indicate the man had fallen first, called for help on his cell phone and the woman had gone to help him. They were a member of group of seven people camping in the wooded, rocky area near when Renfrew Hydro is planning to build a power dam on the Bonnechere River. Later in the week, Renfrew OPP announced the dead woman was Amanda Tessier, 24 of Gatineau. Her obituary indicated she is the mother of a six-year-old girl and a seven-month-old boy. Meanwhile, OPP and paramedics attended a remote address in the Matawatchan area of Greater Madawaska in response to a call that a 65-year-old Ottawa man was

choking on food while eating at a campfire. The man was pronounced dead at the scene. The OPP later reported that the dead man was Phil Morris of Ottawa. The Ontario Coroners Office is investigating both fatals. Police also report the deaths of two people when the Sea-doo on which they were riding collided with rocks near Dow Island on the Ottawa River about five kilometres upstream from Petawawa just after 10 p.m. Sunday. Zachary Lapointe, 20, of Pembroke, and Tiffany Burgess, 25, of Petawawa were pronounced dead at the scene. The Town of Petawawa Fire Department water rescue boat, Garrison Petawawa Military Police and fire department, Paramedics, and the Upper Ottawa Valley OPP Marine Unit assisted at the scene.

Two of the other injuries came in a Sunday morning crash on Highway 17 at the corner of Doran Road east of Petawawa. Police report a 33-year-old driver of a Chevrolet Trailblazer mini-van and her 44-year-old husband are in hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries after their vehicle was hit by a tractor-trailer truck. Police say the driver of the tractor-trailer from the Gatineau area was charged with failing to stop for red light. On Saturday, a 20-year-old man suffered life-threatening injuries when his all-terrainvehicle went out of control. OPP report that Dustin Etmanskie of Madawaska Valley was driving a 1985 Honda three-wheeler when it went into the ditch. Because of the severity of his injuries, he was air-lifted to Ottawa Hospital. In their long weekend report, the OPP say that in their area three people died in three separate motor vehicle collisions. With files from Lucy Hass

A bouquet of flowers has been left at the gate leading to an area where a 24-year-old mother of two died after falling down a cliff late at night on the August long weekend. The area, on the First Chute of the Bonnechere River, has been a popular spot for anglers and other outdoor recreationalists. However, the former parking area has been gated off since plans were announced by Renfrew Hydro that the area is being considered for a hydro dam.

Inheritance letters a scam: OPP News - Local OPP have received a number of complaints from citizens who have received a letter from a London, U.K. accountant and independent underwriting consultant. The author suggests that he is attempting to distribute the wealth of a now deceased business magnate but is having difficulty in finding the appropriate beneficiary. The writer suggests there is no risk involved and goes on to indicate that because the recipient has the same last name, the proceeds of the unclaimed funds can be released to them as beneficiary.

The OPP warns people that this type of inheritance letter is sent in an attempt to “defraud you of your money” or steal personal information. “Legitimate estates do not solicit trustees or heirs in this manner,” emphasizes the OPP. “At some point you will be asked to provide personal information or to pay banking fees to release the funds. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is,” says the OPP. For more information on this and other types of fraudulent scams, go to the Canadian AntiFraud Centre website at www.antifraude.ca.

News - The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has released a series of public service announcements in an effort to raise awareness about the important role that lifejackets and personal floatation devices play in saving lives in boating incidents. The majority of boating fatality victims recovered in OPP marine investigations this season would have likely survived had they been wearing a lifejacket or PFD, say police. The

public service announcements (PSAs) reflect the OPP’s latest efforts to reach out to boaters and “get them to wear this important life-saving equipment rather than just having it nearby, as many boaters do when tragedy strikes.” Three new, original PSA videos in varying lengths are now available on YouTube for the general public to view. Visit the OPP website at www.opp.ca.media/ PFD/PSA_WaterSafety for the video links.

Missing girls found after 15-hour search in woods Steve Newman

News – Two young girls, who were missing for more than 15 hours in a remote wooded area of Greater Madawaska Township, were found in good health Tuesday afternoon, Aug. 5. To the relief of worried family members, the youngsters were located by a member of an emergency response team who was searching the area on foot.

“I’m just glad we have a happy ending,” said Const. Janice Sawbridge, the community service officer for the Renfrew detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police. Renfrew detachment members were among several police officers who combed the area around Airds Lake in the Matawatchan area to look for the girls. They had gone off to play hide-and-seek and had not returned by dark on the holiday Monday at a camping area on Airds Lake.

Eleven-year-old Ember Greatrix was from nearby North Frontenac, while her companion Elya Munro, 9, was from Barrie. The two cousins were vacationing in the area with family members. Police forces responded to the incident, around 10 p.m. Tuesday, but the girls weren’t discovered until shortly after 1 p.m. the next day. As well as the Emergency Response Team, OPP canine and marine units, local officers, Renfrew County paramedics and a helicopter helped in the search.

OPP remind drivers again about the ‘move over’ law News – After 10 years of education efforts, which includes more than 11,000 charges since the law came into effect, the OPP is dismayed to see a slow but steady increase in the number of ‘Move Over’ charges it has laid against drivers since 2010. The OPP will be looking to Ontario drivers to help them reinforce the importance of Ontario’s Move Over

law by setting a good example and “observing this important law.” In Ontario, Section 159 (2)(3) of the Highway Traffic Act (HTA) requires drivers to slow down and proceed with caution when passing an emergency vehicle parked on the side of the highway with its lights activated. If the highway has more than one lane, the law requires the driver

to move over and leave one lane between their vehicle and the parked emergency vehicle if it can be done safely. Failure to do so can result in a fine of $400 to $2,000 plus three demerit points. There were 1,502 charges last year and the number has increased steadily since 2010 when OPP issued 1,067 charges against Ontario

Suicide brings issue of stress on paramedics to the fore ED MCPHERSON

access anonymously. “It is changing,” said McPherson, about his profession’s attitude towards stress. “That is the big battle. They don’t want to it admit the change is coming.” In his three decades on the job, he has seen the change for himself. “In the old days, you would say, ‘suck it up,’” McPherson said. When he was in college in 1980 for ambulance training, the emphasis was on dealing with “emergency medicine and saving the patient.” One day, however, a man best described as a bit of a ‘hippy’, long hair, beard and all, approached him and his fellow ambulance students and handed them a book and said, “You’ll probably see a lot of stuff on the street. Learn to deal with it.” It was a book for paramedics who worked on the streets. That was the extent of the training he received about dealing with the stresses of the job. Now, change is happening not only in society, but politically, too. McPherson is keeping an eye on Bill 2 being put forward at Queen’s

Park by Parkdale-High Park MPP Cheri Di-Novo. The New Democrat is proposing changes to the Workplace Safety and Insurance (WSIB) Act to allow people suffering with PTSD to be allowed to get WSIB benefits. The Lanark County CISM team was initiated last year, and after the paramedic’s death, the team received a compliment of sorts, when the Leeds-Grenville service approached McPherson and said, “we heard your CISM team did a great job. We want to do that as well.” The support system for any first responder goes beyond their family at work, and flows out to the home front, too. As a medical emergency worker, McPherson’s wife works at the Perth hospital, and “she has a job worse than me.” But her expertise has proven to be a boon to her husband, both as a spouse, and as a fellow emergency worker. “It’s a major help,” he said, praising his wife. “I’ve had a great career and it is because I have a wife who is a nurse.” For the widow of his former student though, her ambulance family

While the sound of an ambulance siren in the distance may bring a sense of relief to those waiting at the scene of, say, a car crash, letting them know that help is on the way, police officers are very often the first on the scene of an incident - and it too takes a toll on them. “More and more officers I know personally reach out,” said OPP Sgt. Kristine Rae. The OPP has its own peer support team that engages in critical incident stress response. “Our (team) members are not counsellors, but ... they know what it is like,” said Rae. The force also employs its own EAP, which Rae herself has utilized. But, like paramedics, there is also a stigma amongst the men and women in blue. “In our field, it is very different to ask for help, because they (police officers) are often the ones being asked for help,” said Rae. “I know people who have struggled.” See FIREFIGHTERS, page 26

News - Emergency first responders tend not to ask for help - they’re so often the ones people go to for help. But after a bad call they may need help, too. That is why a program brought in last year for employees of the Lanark County Ambulance Service, the Critical Incident Stress Management Team (CISM), had its first major test last month, as county paramedics mourned the suicide death of one of their colleagues. On the night of July 21, not a single Lanark County ambulance was to be seen on the roads. Instead, ambulances from Ottawa and Renfrew, North Frontenac and Leeds-Grenville counties took up positions around the county, as Lanark’s 85 paramedics gathered to mourn the death of one of their own at the Carleton Place garage. “That’s what we do as ambulance services,” said Ed McPherson, chief of the Lanark County Ambulance Service on July 24. “They (the CISM team) shouldered the load this past week.” He said the paramedics are starting to get back to their regular joking between calls, but the loss is still fresh. “We were all shocked,” said McPherson. When it came to his job, “he was the guy we all turned to ... he will be missed.” If his children were ever in need of an ambulance, and he could choose whom to send, “he was the guy who would pick up my kids,” he said. Adding to the sense of loss was that McPherson had trained him as a rookie many years ago. McPherson has been a member of the ambulance services for the past 33 years, but he has noticed that it has only been since the troops started returning home from Afghanistan that post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), started getting more attention. “It is being recognized now,” he said. “It (PTSD) is here, too,” he said, gesturing to the nearby garage. “A lot of guys will live by the code, that we are expected to deal with it. This is a job that does cause you a lot of stress.” According to Global News, even before this most recent, local death, there had been 13 other suicides amongst emergency first responders (paramedics, police officers, firefighters, dispatchers and prison staff) in a recent 10-week period. “Thirteen in 10 weeks, I wouldn’t have known that,” admitted McPherson of just how shocking the numbers are, even to him.

“This has never happened before to our service.” Like soldiers entering a battlefield, “we work in uncontrolled environments ... that the average person does not get exposed to,” he said. “You go into robot mode,” he said, adding that one’s training and adrenalin kick in to get the job done … You don’t really think about how badly they are hurt.” It is only afterwards, when the paramedics silently shuffle back into the garage, that McPherson can tell if something is wrong. “You can tell when a call is bothering the guys,” he said. Calls involving children really “freak” the guys out. “It gets quiet after a really bad call.” As though that were not heavy enough of a burden, “you are expected to go out on the next call right away” if one comes in, with no time to unwind. If five calls come in succession, the paramedic goes to all five calls. That is where the CISM team comes in, and follows up with the paramedic. “(I hear) it was a bad call. Tell me about that call,” is how the followup phone call will often start. Like many other workplaces, the service provides an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) that employees can

Firefighters witness horrific accidents on the job Continued from page 25

Rae has been on the force for 24 years and had “definitely” seen a change in attitudes amongst the police, especially in the last 10 years. While some incidents are clear markers for follow-up with some counselling for officers, the OPP peer support team is also utilized “if an employee is identified.” The team members volunteer to help out with followup calls and to talk because “they are willing to come back and support their fellow employees ... let them know

they are not alone.” She admitted that the OPP cannot force anyone to seek help, but if an officer is refusing help and, say, a partner approaches a supervisor, believing that the affected officer could be a risk to themselves or others, “there are mechanisms in place to address that.” FIREFIGHTERS’ TOLL

While paramedics may be “freaked out” by calls involving children, it was a major traffic collision involving children that convinced

Steve Fournier to become a firefighter. About 25 years ago, he came upon a collision between a transport truck and a car. The carnage had just occurred, and as he hustled over to the car, he saw that the mother and father in the front seats were both dead. The two children in the back seats were in rough shape, but were still alive. “That’s what triggered me to get (into) the fire service,” said Fournier, 25 years later, remembering how he helped get the children out of the car and out of harm’s way.

“I always wanted to give to my community. That was my first traumatic experience.” In his 24-year fire career, he estimates that he has seen anywhere between 20 and 30 dead bodies, but, he takes it in stride. “I think about it all the time, but I don’t stress about it or lose sleep over it,” he said. He had just been perusing an information leaflet handed out to firefighters about preventing emotional overload, but he shrugged and said that “90 per cent of firefighters don’t have a problem with that. I’ve been to many accidents, rail collisions, drownings, multiple deaths. It never affected me.” However, he admitted that he has never had to contend with a victim younger than the age of 16. Not that some of his calls have not been emotionally fraught. “It’s very traumatic to perform CPR on someone in front of family members,” he said. About 20 years ago he ar-

they are volunteers, the calls are not their life’s work. Once they are done with a call, they return to repairing air conditioners or driving forklifts at their day job. Another factor is that, if a firefighter is squeamish about, say, extracting people from collided cars, they can opt for manning the pump or traffic duty. “Some guys don’t want to be in the nucleus of that,” said Fournier. “(Then) there are guys that don’t mind extraction.” Fournier also finds it cathartic to keep his firefighters up to date on how someone they helped is progressing. “We try to come back with as much information as we can to the guys,” he said. “It brings a bit of closure.” Fournier said that the paramedics are exposed to far worse sights than his firefighters often are. “They (firefighters) wouldn’t get anywhere near the exposure (that) the paramedics get,” he said.

rived on scene of an elderly man having a heart attack. He assisted with CPR until the paramedics arrived, as the nearest ambulance was about 20 minutes away. Despite his best efforts as family members watched on helplessly, his efforts were in vain, and the man was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital later that day. After many calls, there is a debriefing for the volunteer firefighters, every second Wednesday. If a firefighter looks as though he may need additional help, “we will go into a room and (talk) it out. If he needs professional counselling, we get that.” But Fournier added that “we’ve never had to have a professional counsellor in ... they’ve always talked it out.” What separates local fire departments from the police department and the paramedics is that oftentimes, “I prepare for the call ... you try to prepare yourself.” Also, since

Events - This year’s Dunrobin Meats Golf Tournament will raise funds for two local hospice charities Aug. 23. With the tournament in its 11th year, Mike Fines, one of the organizers along with wife Julie Delahunt and her sister Cindy, said they chose Hospice Care Ottawa and Hospice Renfrew because many of their regular golfers’ families have used the services. “This is the first year in this area there hasn’t been a family needful of money, which is, knock on wood, good,” said Fines. “Julie and Cindy’s mother died of cancer. She passed away in their home. But there are a lot of other people in our golf tournament (who have used hospice services).” Ruth Cameron of Hospice Care Ottawa said she was so pleased to learn the organization would be one of the recipients. “It’s wonderful, we’re just overwhelmed. It’s amazing” she said. “We need to raise $1.6 million to cover our shortfall and for us to be chosen, to be supported in this way, is just fantastic.” Both hospice organizations are community-based charities that offer endof-life services and care to palliative clients and their families at no charge.

The Dunrobin Meats Golf Tournament, which will take place on Aug. 23 at Irish Hills Golf and Country Club in Carp, is one of the largest in the city, with more than 250 golfers and 60-plus additional attendees at the dinner. The golf tournament started as a fun activity for a baseball team Fines and the Delahunts played on. They had funds left over at the end of it so they purchased food and handed it out in downtown Ottawa. The second year, they decided to add their store name and raise funds for a friend who had cancer. “Every year it’s just taken off,” said Fines. Two years ago, the tournament raised $15,000 for the Vance boys. Caleb and Liam’s mom, Erin Vance, 26, was fatally struck by a car while walking along Bayview Drive in Constance Bay in March 2012. “The community really helps out every year,” said Fines, and in turn, the tournament is all about “helping people out.” The tournament is about 90 per cent sold out, and interested attendees can sign up by calling the Dunrobin Meat and Grocery at 613-832-3462, as can anyone who would like to donate to either hospice, sponsor a hole or donate a gift. The last chance to register is Saturday, Aug. 16.

Sports - A 100 or so supporters at this year’s 12th annual Jon Brunette Memorial Golf Tournament had their clubs ready for action Sunday at the Irish Hills Golf and Country Club in West Carleton. Jon Burnette died in a 2003 snowmobile accident, but his memory is rekindled through the annual event that supports West Carleton Minor Hockey Association’s season-ending initiation program tourney.

Jon was a member of the Junior B Arnprior Packers after playing West Carleton minor hockey and with the Ottawa Valley Titans. His mother, Val, says there are so many memorable things about Jon that she holds dear, especially his positive attitude and happiness. In Sunday’s tournament, a three-way team tie was broken with a playoff. The winning score of nine under par, in a best-ball format, belonged to the Constance Bay team of Andy Duquette, Matt Baker, Chris Follett and Mike Thompson. “It was a great day and a successful tournament,� said Val.

Team cycles from coast to coast for clean water Cyclists’ goal of $510K will drill 60 wells in Africa Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - It started with a decades-long dream to cycle across Canada. Rob Montgomery, Mike Woodard, Timo Itkonen, and Richard Blaschek, rolled through Arnprior and much of Ottawa on Aug. 1 – Day 32 of their cross-country ride. The dream has grown to become a fund and awareness-raiser for GAiN (Global Aid Network) and the Water For Life program, which drills wells and trains people in African communities to care for the water systems. “I’ve had a dream for many decades about cycling across Canada,” said Montgomery. Two years ago, that dream started to become a reality as he recruited the other cyclists. “Mike said to me, ‘If we do it, we need to do it for a cause.’ “There’s a statistic that the World Health Organization shares that really gripped both mine and Mike’s heart: every 21 seconds a child dies because of water-borne disease,” said Montgomery. “It’s preventable if we can

give them clean drinking water.” The four men – accompanied by Jacquie Blaschek in the support vehicle – make up the Cycling 4 Water team. They’re on a mission to raise $510,000 for 60 wells to represent the cyclists’ 60-plus years; Montgomery and Woodard will both turn 60 during the ride, while Itkonen just celebrated his 63rd birthday. The Water For Life program not only drills the wells but it trains a committee to collect a small fee, about one cent a day, for access to the water. The money charged pays for repairs and is reinvested in the communities, said Montgomery. “Their first responsibility is to make sure the wells are repaired,” he said. “They’re trained and held accountable … to reinvest in the community. A lot of communities, when they have a well for a number of years, have been able to build schools, health clinics, communal or community gardens.” A community well in Tanzania that serves three villages, has built a clinic, a school, and established a fish farm to supply the entire region. “It makes a huge difference for every community,” said Montgomery, who was recovering from a high-speed fall off his bicycle. He had to take a small break from cycling but with the help of a physiotherapist he’s

The group kicked off on June 30 in Vancouver and have covered more than half the distance of the 8,000-kilometre total to their final destination in St. John’s, Newfoundland,

which they are on track to reach by Aug. 23. To date, they’ve raised enough money for 24 wells. “We’ve gotten to more than halfway across the country and we have more than halfway to go in our goal of 60 wells. We’re a little behind in the funding,” said Montgomery, adding that over the course of the ride, he’s been awed by the generosity of strangers.

Dog owners should know about these five things Lifestyle - There are five main things of which a dog owner should be aware. Poop and scoop: In most cities, towns, municipalities etc. failing to scoop is prohibited by law and punishable by fines. It is not only unsightly to see and smell fecal matter lying around, especially in the heat of the summer, it is also an environmental issue. According to research, a single gram of dog waste can contain 23 million fecal coliform bacteria and that dogs can be a significant host of giardia and salmonella.

Some of the possible ways a dog or cat can obtain various different parasites, viruses and stages of bacteria from their own poop include rolling in their feces, pawing at it (contraction transdermally) and in rare instances even eating it, known as coprophagy. Off-leash: Not everyone shares our passion for animals and let’s face it, dogs like humans can possess certain character traits that are considered by other dogs and humans as aggressive even if meant to be playful Dogs just like children

Pet Talk

IAN STUPP

should be taught to have manners or social graces and for some this simply does not exist. Nobody enjoys having some ones dog jumping all over you, barking for attention.

For some pet owners there may be a fear of big dogs. For children this could be misconstrued as aggression, for the elderly or pregnant this could cause a health issue especially if jumped and pushed to the ground. In most cities, towns, municipalities, etc. being off-leash is prohibited by law and punishable by fines. Microchipping: is a great way to protect your dog from loss or theft. There is no pain and no sedation required. A veterinarian simply

implants a chip, somewhat the size of a grain of rice, under the skin on the neck of your dog and in the event your dog is lost a scan of the neck will identify its rightful owner. Although the cost of microchipping is inexpensive, there are always microchipping clinics that reduce the cost further, making it even more affordable to dog owners. Aggression – preventing bites: Nobody appreciates a bully! If you have a dog that lacks in manners it is best to keep them on a leash as well as a muzzled.

It is also recommended to speak to an animal behaviourist to determine the root cause of the problem and correct it immediately. No pet owner wants to face the possibility of being sued, surrendering the dog to the authorities or worse, euthanizing the offender. Car Safety: All too often I see dogs sitting on the passenger seat, or worse, on the drivers lap. For the safety of the driver and the dog, small dogs should be crated in the back of the vehicle and larger dogs should be harnessed to the seat belt.

Dogs can be, in a collision, sent flying through the windshield, clip the driver in the back of the head or get tangled up between the driver legs. Unless you’re vacationing, there is no need to take Fido along for the ride while doing errands. Fido will do better at home.

Dock diving dogs introductory afternoon planned for Sunday Community – Avalon Ranch is holding an introductory training afternoon Sunday, Aug. 17 for any dog owners who think their pets might be good at dock diving. The ranch at 1934 Lochwin-

noch Road just east of Renfrew in Horton has hosted several major dock diving events. While a competition originally planned for July was cancelled, the Spurrells, owners of the ranch, have decided to intro-

duce the community to the sport with a special afternoon at their specially designed dog pool. Who can attend? Todd Spurrell says that “if you answer yes to any of the following questions, don’t be shy and give us

a call.� Is your dog jumping off the dock at the cottage and you would like to further his skills? Will your dog do just about anything for a toy? Perhaps you would like to

see if your dog can swim for the first time? He says any skill level, from beginners trying it out to competing athletes wishing to hone their skills, are welcome. Feel free to bring a change of clothes

and go in the pool with your dog, he addes. The event begins at noon and runs all afternoon. Pre-registration ($25 a dog) is required at 613-432-4344 to arrange groups based on skill level.

Emerson’s experiment turned out to be a blast MARY COOK Memories separate fields. Or he would blow up stones, imbedded deep in the ground, heap what was left of them onto the stone boat, and get rid of them wherever Father saw fit. It seemed to me there were stones everywhere on that farm. Some were deep and flat and close to the house, and on these I could play ‘Jacks’, and I hoped Father would never put the dynamite to them. There were also loose stones, much bigger ones, around the outhouse. Some right against it by nature, and others piled there to keep the little building upright.

Even the rain barrel at the corner of the house sat on a big flat rock. My sister Audrey and I wanted no part of the blasting. But my three brothers, far more adventurous, couldn’t wait to join Father when he let it be known that he was about to blast something out ... be it stumps or stones. Even though they knew exactly how it was done, Father alone was the only one to touch the dynamite. And then one day, a hot summer afternoon it was, Emerson took it upon himself to test his ability as a blaster. Unknown to Father, of course, or Mother for that matter, Emerson decided to try his luck at blasting one of the big stones sitting against the outhouse. The first hint we had was when there was an ungodly bang, and Mother peeling potatoes in the

Lifestyle - It seemed to me back then, Father, whenever he wasn’t working the fields, was either mending fences or blowing up stones or stumps. Three generations of Hanemans had tried, with only moderate success, to clear all the land that ran like a narrow ribbon from the Northcote Side Road, across the creek and the Bonnechere, and then to the backfields. There seemed to be boulders everywhere. And stumps, still deep in the ground, where trees had been felled, with their roots left to begin new growth. And so Father, when time permitted, would perform what Mother called “pioneering,” whatever that meant. Father would take dynamite, and uproot stumps, which would then serve as fencing, piled in rows to

Unknown to Father, of course, or Mother for that matter, Emerson decided to try his luck at blasting one of the big stones sitting against the outhouse. summer kitchen, with me beside her, barely missed being hit on the head with a piece of rock the size of fry pan that came through the back window, sailed past her head and settled against the wood box by the Findlay Oval. Our feet barely hit the floor as we tore outside to see what had happened. Well, there was Emerson, smart enough to be well away from the scene of the crime, with his face covered with ash, and two dead hens beside him. They had been hit head-on. What was left of the outhouse, lay on its side, with the two holes pointing westward, and the big

stone beside it smashed to smithereens. Apart from the loss of two hens, which Mother soon decided would be our supper that night; Mother was amazingly unfazed by the turn of events. She hated the outhouse with a passion, and had long since said she was going to have Old Herman, an authority on outhouses, build a new one as soon as she could afford the new lumber. Until that happened, the two holes alone would be up righted, and would have to do as an outhouse. Fortunately, they were well hidden in a cluster of cedar trees. Father was harder to deal with. Apart from the danger, a point he barely touched on, he lamented on the loss of the two sticks of dynamite that had been wasted on a building that had served the Haneman family for three generations.

“Yes we’ve seen some beautiful scenery. But the people…” Montgomery said, trailing off. The group was staying with a family when the two children, ages 8 and 6, went to their piggy banks. Both came back with $8.50. “That gives one person water for a lifetime through the program. We teared up,” said Montgomery. “No one asked them to do that, they did it of their own initiative.” In central Alberta, the cyclists stopped at a rest stop. The only other patrons there were two bikers in full leathers with their Harley’s. “We started chatting with them they asked us about the cause. They opened their wallets and gave us all their cash, about $50,” said Montgomery. “Just out here, we stopped in Cobden for a coffee break. A family was there … three generations.

They saw our car and two of the granddaughters came up and gave $12.75 for water for life for a person and a half.” The list goes on – Andrew Scheer, Speaker of the House, made a contribution and cycled 75-kilometres with the group; a woman who runs an ice cream parlour treated everyone to ice cream; the community in Dryden, Ont. rallied to raise $1,700 and the cyclists received a police escort into town; one extended family contributed more than $1,000 – and on and on. “We were just blown away,” said Montgomery. “The generosity of Canadians; we see that all the time. “Canadians are wonderful.” He believes they’ll reach their goal, and every day, he becomes closer to realizing his dream.

August news from the Arnprior Legion

DEBBIE VISNESKIE/SUBMITTED

Among the businesses and organizations at a health and wellness fair at the Arnprior Villa was the Arnprior-BraesideMcNab Seniors at Home Program, represented by program co-ordinator Jennifer Stratton and executive director Dennis Harrington.

Community – OMG! It’s actually been real summer weather … and thankfully, we have air conditioning in the Arnprior Legion. The Air Conditioner Fund Raising has made it possible to keep everyone comfortable. We are well on our way to paying off the debt - one more Saturday dinner and the big event Sept. 12. With everyone’s support at both events, we will be even closer. The Saturday, Aug. 16 chicken and ribs dinner will be served at 6 p.m. after great entertainment from ‘Why Not Three’. Don’t miss it. I would suggest you get there early for a good seat and also buy your dinner tickets starting Wednesday … same reason. It will be a great meal as always. Dinner will be served in the hall and is a family affair, so bring the family. Best deal in town. The big fundraiser will be held Friday, Sept. 12 with the entertainment everyone’s been talking about. ‘The Gender Illusions’. Music and fun starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are now available but limited. Tables of eight will be available. All tickets will be sold in advance. Don’t leave your purchase too late. Contact any of the executive for tickets. They will also be available at the bar. September is creeping up pretty quickly. By the time the show on the 12th is behind us, we’ll be getting ready for ‘Legion Week’. We honour all the veterans for a full week beginning Sept. 22. Starting the week will be the annual Veterans Dinner held Sunday afternoon. As always all veterans are invited to attend but

must be registered by the posted date. Watch for more on that week of celebration. Be sure to check the community page for all the happenings at Branch #174 Arnprior. Drop in and say hello. Not a member yet … applications are always available and welcome. If you are a member, I hope to see you at the general meeting Wednesday, Sept. 10 at 7:30 p.m. Come out and support the new committee you elected in April. It’s only an hour of your time a month and its important you attend.

NEW REGISTRATIONS

health issues, has been positive, say staff members. The Phoenix Centre, which also has offices in Eganville and Barry’s Bay, has been an accredited children’s mental health centre since 1978. ATS was established by Renfrew Victoria Hospital in 1986. During a ‘value stream mapping’ session of clients and staff members in June 2013, clients told the Phoenix Centre two main things that triggered the opening of the walkin sessions at 191 Plaunt St. South in Renfrew. One, heighten awareness of services. Two, provide immediate service to community members in need. The weekly walk-in counselling sessions run 2 to 7 p.m. every Tuesday in Pembroke, every Thursday in Renfrew. To date, three to four people or groups have attended most Thursdays. Staff on hand consists of an addictions therapist, two or three family and clinical therapists with a bachelor’s or masters degree in social work, and a clinical manager. The service is geared to parents and youth who are up to 17 years old. Children under 12 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. In joint-custody arrangements, children must provide written consent from both parents. The free service does not require an OHIP card. Sessions typically last one hour or less, and are viewed as one-time sessions that may or may not result in referral for additional guidance or assistance. Referrals have been made for about half of the walk-in clients, says Phoenix Centre clinical manager Debra Woodfine. A big advantage of the walk-in sessions, says ATS addictions therapist Mandy Afelskie, is immediacy. “Whether they need 10 minutes or one and a half hours, we’re there to provide a service.”

Staff for the Addictions Treatment Service (ATS) and Phoenix Centre’s weekly walkin counselling service includes from left Phoenix Centre family and child therapist Wendy Bronson and clinical manager Debra Woodfine, and ATS executive director Kim MacLeod and addictions counsellor Mandy Afelskie. Another advantage of the sessions, says Phoenix Centre family and child therapist Wendy Bronson, is identification of the clients’ own skill set to deal with their own issues. With some guidance, says Bronson, we make them the “specialist in their own lives.” A big key to successful sessions is that they are client-focused, says ATS executive director Kim MacLeod. Since the Renfrew sessions began in late May, staff have faced a wide number of client issues, among them drug addiction, divorce and separation issues, anxiety, depression and substance abuse. For more details about the new walk-in counselling service, call the Phoenix Centre at 1-800-465-1870.

Community - In the middle of summer, it’s more important than ever to protect yourself from pesky mosquito bites. Not only are bites uncomfortable, but the mosquito that bites you may also give you West Nile virus. Although the chances of contracting the virus are generally low in this area, there are still risks. There are simple and effective measures you can take to reduce these risks. As you prepare to spend time outdoors, learn more about West Nile virus and how to prevent it. West Nile virus is mainly transmitted to people through the bite of an infected mosquito. It can affect all age groups. The majority of human infections occur between July and early September. Human cases of West Nile virus infection have been reported in parts of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, On-

tario and Quebec. If you’re planning to travel and spend time outdoors in these, or any other areas of Canada, remember to protect yourself against mosquito bites. The majority of people infected with West Nile virus (about 70 to 80 per cent) have no symptoms and do not feel sick. When an infection does cause mild illness symptoms will usually appear within two to 15 days. WEST NILE SYMPTOMS

Mild symptoms may include fever, headache, body aches, mild rash and swollen lymph glands. While anyone infected with West Nile virus can be at risk of developing more severe symptoms and health effects, such as meningitis and encephalitis, the elderly and those with underlying conditions and/or weaker

immune systems are at greater risk. Fewer than one per cent of people infected with the virus will develop severe symptoms and health effects.

Sports – The Arnprior White Pine Festival is still looking for teams for its mixed lob ball tournament. The tournament will be held Saturday, Aug. 23, starting at 9 a.m. at the Abba Diamonds. The event will be a straight round-robin affair with eight teams. The entry fee is $300 per team with cash prizes. To register a team, call Howie at 613-408-4367.

24hr Emergency Tree Removal Service

PROTECT YOURSELF

You can protect yourself against mosquito bites and West Nile virus by following these simple measures: • Use insect repellent that contains Deet or Icaridin or other approved ingredients, and always read and follow the directions on the insect repellent container, especially when using on young children. • Wear light-coloured clothing, a longsleeved shirt, and long pants. • Make sure screen doors and windows are in good repair. • Get rid of as much standing water as you can from around your home and property, because mosquitoes need water to breed.

Practice sun safety this summer Lifestyle - With summer well underway, Dr. Robin Williams, Ontario’s Interim Chief Medical Officer of Health, is reminding people to protect themselves and their families from the sun while enjoying time outdoors. Overexposure to the sun can lead to painful sunburns and increase the risk of developing skin cancer from harmful UV rays. It can also contribute to heatrelated illness such as heat stroke and exhaustion, which can result in

headaches, cramping, vomiting and fainting. It is important to help protect those most vulnerable to the heat and sunburns, especially infants less than one year of age, children and the elderly. CHILDREN VULNERABLE

Children have the highest amount of sun exposure of any age group and are more sensitive to UV rays. Steps that people can take to pro-

tect themselves and loved ones from harmful sun exposure include: • using sunscreen - SPF 30 or higher - and reapplying at least every two hours or after swimming or sweating a lot, even on cloudy days; • limiting time spent in the sun, especially between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. when the sun is strongest; • wearing the right gear, including a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses and light clothing to cover the skin; • staying in the shade or indoors, especially during heat alerts; find

air-conditioned spaces, including malls, libraries and specially designated community facilities; • drinking a lot of water, even before you feel thirsty. About 30,000 Ontarior residents are diagnosed with skin cancer each year. Skin cancer rates have been rising in youth and young adults in the province and the overall economic burden of skin cancer had risen to more than $344 million in direct and indirect costs by 2011.

Angels in Grey II available for purchase Liz Wall Seniors at Home

Community – Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home is delighted to present the second edition of ‘Angels in Grey’, the agency’s own magazine publication and fundraiser that shares the life stories of 11 seniors, the creators of our communities. The second publication was ďŹ rst introduced to the public July 10 at Island View Suites and then July 23 at Arnprior Villa, at which time a reception gave all a chance to meet the ‘Angels’ featured within Angels in Grey II. With Angels in Grey II, you will read about two veterans of the Korean War and how that experience changed their lives. You will learn about a woman whose life has been devoted to family and the community. You will discover how a businesswoman thrives by keeping busy. In addition you will read about Arnprior’ s ďŹ rst op-

tometrist and his years of service to the community. Also included is the story of how one person’s family helped shape life in Arnprior both in business and family life. Also included in this edition is the love story of a couple who came from nothing. There is also an interesting story about a Second World War veteran, a gentleman who walked alongside the leaders of our country. Learn about the man who is devoted to his God, family and community. Last but certainly not least, read about the life of no ordinary man who is one of many local veterans to have a street named in his honour. Angels in Grey II sells for $5 a copy and is available at Pebbles in the Arnprior Shopping Centre, the Goldbar jewelry store in downtown Arnprior, the Pakenham General Store and at the Seniors at Home ofďŹ ce, 106 McGonigal St. West. All proceeds are in support of the agency’s Para-Transit vehicle.

Wilcox, Vaughan headline Calabogie Blues/Ribfest Events - The countdown is on for the everpopular Class Axe Guitars Blues and Ribfest this weekend at Calabogie Peaks. The fourth annual celebration of blues music and all things barbecue begins Friday, Aug. 15 and wraps up Sunday, Aug. 17. The event website promises “hours of live blues music and thousands of pounds of smokin’ hot ribs.� The concert stage, at the base of the mountain at the Peaks, will feature some of the greatest blues legends, including David Wilcox and Jimmie Vaughan. With 20 years in the business under his belt, Wilcox has crafted gold and platinum albums and is known worldwide. Austin, Texas guitarist Vaughan, who headlines Saturday night, is a founding member of the Fabulous Thunderbirds. The brother of Stevie Ray Vaughan, he has appeared as guest artist on albums with Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana and B.B. King. Other musicians to hit the stage over the weekend are The 24th Street Wailers, Anthony Gomes, Wicked Grin, aoul and the Big Time, Charlie A’Court, the Paul Deslaurier Band, Jerome Godboo, Angel Forrest, Dawn Tyler Watson and Ben Racine Band and the Kelly Richey Band.

And then there’s the food. “Some of Canada’s best ribbers will be here sizzling up some of the juiciest racks of ribs you’ll ever see in one place, competing for the coveted Best In Show award, a one-of-a-kind plaque made by renowned local artist Richard Gill,� says the event website. A new feature this year is the Ribber Valet for those who want to enjoy the ribs but can’t stay for the music. These people can show up at the festival main gates and order their ribs. As the event website says: “You’ll skip the line-up and have your orders delivered right into your hands smokin’ hot!� To learn more about the event and to check out the performance timetable, visit www.CalabogieBlues.com. Pop-up tent trailers, recreational vehicles and tents are all welcome but must be booked ahead of time. Others attractions include harmonica and guitar workshops, and festival-goers are encouraged to bring their instruments and have a sitdown lesson with some of the artists performing at the event. There will also be a kids’ zone, vendors area, beer garden, after-parties and more. The organizers are grateful for the many volunteers who help with the annual events, as well as the many sponsors who make the event possible, including the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport.

We didn’t know that morning, God was going to call your name‌ In life we loved you dearly, In death we do it 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 beautiful memories, Your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, You are always by 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. Love Shawna, Jason, Ally, Keelynd, and Skylar xoxo

With Love and Prayers Theresa, Debbie, Maria, Elaine and families

The time has past Just one year ago It happened so fast That you had to go God softly whispered Of a place set for you Among His treasured But from our view So from our sight Safe and secure He brought you home To His love so pure And if God wills We’ll meet again one day When God calls us home In His love to stay Deeply missing your smile, your laugh and your presence in our life

In Memory of Richard Wright who passed away suddenly, August 12, 2013 We little knew that day God was going to call your name. No farewell words were spoken, No time to say goodbye, You were gone before we knew it, And only God knows why. 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 beautiful 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 God calls us one by one. The chain will link again. Love always, forever in our hearts Mom, Dad (Joan), Gregg (Jen), Darryl, and pets Blue, Bobby & Smoky
