Proudly serving since 1879
Richard Holmes honoured for his hoop contributions John Carter john.carter@metroland.com
News – There’s a great deal of Valley pride in the contributions of basketball’s Dick Holmes. In between pre-season ADHS-RCI junior and senior girls basketball games Sept 18 at Arnprior District High School, Holmes was presented with a plaque honouring his more than 35 years of involvement in the game. The exhibition games have been named the Dick Holmes Tribute Challenge in his honour and will be played each year prior to the start of the regular season. ADHS, the Renfrew Association of Approved Basketball Officials, the L’il Warriors and the Valley Pride Basketball Club got together to bestow the honour on Holmes, who has played a key role in the local youth basketball scene since 1972.

Phil Moore explains why Dick Holmes is being honoured as the senior and junior ADHS and RCI girls basketball teams look on. The teams from the two schools will play two preseason exhibition games called the Dick Holmes Tribute Challenge each year.

Public meeting Nov. 10 Arnprior candidates to face Smith asked council to approve the project and hold a pubic meeting to hear from possible opponents. “From a policy point of view staff is supporting this development application,� she said. “This is one of the last large tracts of land left in the town.� A final point, the fact the developer has not asked for any exemptions, came as a relief to council. Other developers have peppered council with changes, which in turn has led Mayor David Reid and others to reflect on the necessity for more policies to direct future decisions. However, that doesn’t mean they were pleased with the process in place to approve the Anas’ development. Reid isn’t comfortable signing off on the project before the public meeting. “I’m happy to see their plans are in compliance (with existing rules). That’s a big plus for me,� he said. “And I’m pretty comfortable with approving the development. But why approve it before the public meeting?� Smith explained it is standard process; that the town hosts public meetings but primarily for the benefit of the county government. It is the county that has final say, and takes opponents’ comments into consideration when drawing up conditions for developers to follow.
Holmes was touched by the outpouring of affection, which included loud applause from the crowd and the senior and junior players from both ADHS and RCI. “It’s been a blast. I’ve enjoyed it all,� he said. “I see a lot of faces I’ve coached and refereed,� he said, looking around at the teams and in the crowd. During his acceptance speech he doled out his trademark Lifesavers to each team. In typical refereeing fashion, so not to show bias, he took off his red ADHS-coloured shirt partway through his speech to show he was wearing blue, RCI’s colours, underneath.
News – It’s the only chance Arnprior voters will have to see how the nine candidates for town councillor positions react under pressure and directly compare their platforms. The public gets a chance to quiz the candidates Monday, Sept. 29 at Arnprior District High School. The Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce is hosting the pre-election debate at 7 p.m. Valley Heritage Radio station manager Jason Marshall will relate written questions from the audience to the candidates after they have given two-minute opening statements.
ARNPRIOR PLANNER ROBIN SMITH
“It’s a local issue for us, and it’s important for us. But the meeting is for the county’s benefit,� she said. Reid reiterated that the town should “take control� over how it develops. That’s when CAO Michael Wildman stepped in to say the town can always suggest additional conditions to the county before the year-long registration date is reached. “This decision doesn’t hinder council from adding anything after,� he said. “I really think it sends a wrong message,� Reid continued. “I feel pretty strong that it sends the message it’s approved. I don’t know if that’s the right message, even though I do support it.� Wildman again said the town can add conditions at any point over the next number of months, and that the county will take seriously anything coming from the town. Council approved the report, including the Nov. 10 meeting. It will take place during the regular council meeting, set to begin at 6:30 p.m.
Holmes gets Tribute Challenge plaque Continued from front
vote questions Monday
This is one of the last large tracts of land left in the town.
While he has a soft spot for the teams from ADHS, being a coach there for so long, he said he always admired the Renfrew players’ grit and toughness. In presenting the Tribute Challenge plaque, ADHS counsellor and former athletic director Phil Moore told the crowd that Holmes is not only a long-time basketball coach he has been a referee for at least 35 years. The plaque is given “in appreciation of Richard Holmes for his outstanding contributions to basketball as a coach, a club and program builder, an executive member of the referee association, a referee, and most of all a tireless promoter of the sport in our local area,�
Moore read. “So many children have been given the opportunity to practice, develop and play because of your efforts,� the plaque continues. “For that we are truly thankful for all that you have done!� The plaque notes that Holmes was ADHS basketball coach from 1972 to 1998, gave Grade 7-8 girls basketball clinics from 1979 to 1990, helped found the L’il Warriors basketball program in 1996, launched the Valley Pride basketball club in 2004 and refereed from 1974 to 2014. It was noted that both the L’il Warriors and Valley Pride clubs are in great shape, largely due to Holmes’ efforts.

News – It took a while, but Arnprior’s Kyle Felhaver is a champion once again. The local ďŹ ddler ďŹ nished ďŹ rst in the highly competitive 19 to 44 age group category at the Pembroke Old Time Fiddling and Step-dancing competition on the Labour Day weekend. The prestigious event attracts competitors from all over the continent. Felhaver won the main competition in 1996 and 2000, but while he has often came close since, this year’s triumph was a long time coming. “Winning again proved very illusive,â€? he noted. But the high level of the competition makes the win extra sweet for the Felhaver, wellknown for his performances throughout the area and teaching skills. With so many excellent ďŹ ddlers attending and different inclinations of the judges, it’s not surprising that no one ďŹ ddler can dominate, he said. Out of the 16 ďŹ ddlers in the co-ed competition, four qualiďŹ ed as ďŹ nalists to play on the Saturday evening ďŹ nale. The ďŹ nalists played a waltz, jig and reel. No matter how many times he competes, he says he still feels some butteries before going on stage. But once he begins, he’s all business. Fiddling runs in the family, as his father, Dave of White Lake, has been a regular competitor in the 65-andover category. Bruce Armitage of Quyon ďŹ nished third in that class this year.
Felhaver’s students also did well in the Pembroke competition. Katie McLachlan of White Lake was sixth in the 9-and-under-ďŹ ddling contest. Felhaver said another of his students, Bailey Gresham, played well in the 19-44 class, and Ian Wallace made waves in the 18-and-under competition. “It was an awesome weekend,â€? said Felhaver’s wife, Amy Foley. “He played really well ‌ and so did his students.â€? September is a busy month for Felhaver. As well as the Pembroke competition, he played the Russell, Renfrew and Richmond fairs, as well as a couple of weddings. He is scheduled to help kick off the Carp Fair tonight (Thursday), playing with Gail Gavan at what promises to be a great Valley hoedown starting at 8 p.m.

Felhaver wasn’t the only area winner at the Pembroke competition. Morgan Pleet of Kinburn took ďŹ rst place in the 12-and-under stepdancing class. Charlotte Van Barr was sixth. Charlotte did even better on the ďŹ ddle, ďŹ nishing second in the 12-and-under ďŹ ddling competition, edged out by a lad from Uxbridge. Bennett Van Barr of Kinburn was ďŹ fth in the 9-andunder ďŹ ddling class. The ABCs, a group consisting of Kinburn and Eganville dancers, ďŹ nished second in the 12-and-under group JOHN CARTER/METROLAND dancing to a Metcalfe team.

Permit sufferers to use marijuana oil It makes one wonder what the folks down at Health Canada are smoking. Are they really suggesting that 6-year-old Liam McKnight resort to smoking joints if he is to use medical marijuana to control his epileptic seizures? Shouldn’t they at least consider a Vanier father’s plea that cannabis oil is preferable to chemotherapy is treating his leukemia-stricken son. In Constance Bay, the community has rallied behind the McKnight family as they try to find ways to deal with his devastating Dravet syndrome. A couple of fundraisers last winter collected a substantial sum along with providing a considerable amount of comfort for the family as they wage a complex and expensive battle to save their “local sweetie,� as he is commonly called in the community. That was supplemented with the annual Dravet walk in Constance Bay Sunday and a walk by students at Liam’s school, St. Michael’s Fitzroy. WHITHER CONSERVATIVES?
The politicians are happy to jump on board the band wagon when the community was getting behind the McKnights. But where are they now that Health Canada needs some encouragement to allow the family to treat Liam’s severe epileptic seizures with cannabis oil. There is no denying that since taking cannabis Liam’s quality of life has improved dramatically, limiting significantly the number of his seizures that were once as high as 70 in a day and allowing him to take on activities such as horseback riding and tubing once thought impossible. Obviously, the authorities recognize how valuable the treatments are, as they have approved a medical marijuana license for the McKnights. However, as valuable as medical marijuana has been for Liam, his parents aren’t about to have him smoking joints daily. Instead, they give him cannabis oil because it is precise to measure and easy to take. But hold on. Health Canada says all medical marijuana user must smoke or vaporize their cannabis. Unfortunately for the McKnights, oils and other derivatives are illegal. That, of course, makes no sense at all. Are you going to make a young lad start smoking, making him susceptible to lung cancer and other respiratory diseases, just to keep his seizures under control. So come on Health Canada, and more importantly the politicians who hold the regulatory power, let’s change the rules to allow Liam and many other medi-

LETTER
Lack of recreation/library deals no reason to merge with Arnprior To the Editor: Someone asked me the other day, ‘Why don’t you just amalgamate with Arnprior, then you’d be able to use the Nick Smith Centre and the library without an agreement?’ So I thought about it. What would amalgamation of McNab-Braeside and Arnprior mean to me living in M-B? So I jotted some facts down. • M-B would cease to exist as a separate entity; • There would be one municipal government for the whole area; • There would be one fire department, one roads department; (MB has an excellent fire department with an excellent record; M-B taxes would now pay for Arnprior fires as well); • M-B will pay higher taxes as they are paying for ‘urban services’ such as water, sewage, etc. On average M-B residents now pay about $900/year less than Arnprior; • Arnprior will pay fewer taxes as there will be a larger tax base to cover costs; • Will there be equal representation for all areas or will the concentrated population in Arnprior prevail? • Will there be a new enlarged municipal building at high cost to taxpayers? • Arnprior has more than twice as many staff supporting roughly the same population ‌ all on union ‌ staff salary grid is about 30 percent higher than M-B.

cal marijuana users (probably the majority) to take their treatments in the easiest way possible. Sure, any decisions involving marijuana are likely to be touchy for many politicians. But public opinion is rapidly changing and they and the bureaucrats need to quit waffling on the issue and catch up to the times. The courts in British Columbia are urging the federal government to allow medical marijuana users to take it in various forms. The New York Times has just come out in favour of legalizing pot, the federal Liberals support an easing of restrictions, people in two U.S. states have voted to allow marijuana sales and even Canada’s police chiefs are recommending fines instead of prison time for users. A Canadian government poll released last month indicates more than two-thirds of Canadians support softening the rules on pot. In the face of the changing attitudes on marijuana, surely the McKnights can be allowed to ease little Liam’s seizures by the most convenient way possible. Health Canada and its political masters need to stop blowing smoke and let him use cannabis oil.

If this were to happen, what advantages are there for me? Apart from the two in my first sentence, I guess if Arnprior ever achieved small city status, presumably it might not pay taxes to Renfrew County. But that would be nuts as even Pembroke can’t afford social services on its own. Are there any disadvantages for me to now being part of an enlarged Arnprior? So I thought about it. • Pay higher taxes presumably; remember that M-B pays close to $900/year less than Arnprior for an average home; we would now pay for Arnprior’s aging infrastructure; look at the increasing costs of running the 40-year-old Nick Smith Centre as an example or their revitalization plans for downtown Arnprior; See TOWNSHIP Page 9

Support for his run brings Terry Township needs smart development Fox closer to his goals Continued from Page 8
LUCY HASS/METROLAND
Arnprior Terry Fox Run organizer Stephen Dodd addresses the group gathered for the start of the event. It was an honour having the original organizer, Rita Clouthier, attend her 34th Terry Fox Run. On his journey, Terry filled a water jug off the shore of the Atlantic Ocean with the intention of emptying it into the Pacific Ocean. It symbolized hope, determination and vision – Terry could see himself on the shore of the Pacific, having fulfilled his journey. Today, that bottle unites us all from Atlantic to Pacific in the common goal of a cure for all cancers. Thanks to our Terry Fox Runners, and their pledges, the Pacific gets closer every day.

A VOTE FOR TOM PECKETT IS A VOTE FOR DEVELOPMENT. Township Council held a meeting earlier this year for developers, contractors and real estate personnel. The question was asked: why is there so little development in McNab Braeside Township? Everyone at the meeting had the same story—extreme difficulty in dealing with the township office and constantly being referred to the County of Renfrew office in Pembroke for their requests. Hiring our own planner to work with these business people, making development easier, is the answer. More development means a wider tax base to help keep taxes down. More to come next week! 0925.R0032900924
ELECTRONIC VOTING (COMPUTER OR PHONE) STARTS OCT. 17TH TO OCT. 27TH VOTE TOM PECKETT MAYOR – TOWNSHIP OF MCNAB/BRAESIDE
Well that list was starting to scare the heck out of me! Who in their right mind would want that to happen if you lived in M-B? Lots of advantages for Arnprior, that’s for sure. So how could it ever happen? First of all, I’d be very wary of people saying M-B needs development without saying what kind of development they have in mind. Everyone knows that the Braeside Quarry expansion, which threatens the water of the whole Braeside area and adds to the costs of road repairs from huge truck traffic, isn’t smart development. Nor is putting Kanata-style housing development close to Arnprior. Do the math; it doesn’t work. Annexation is just a slippery slope to amalgamation. We need smart development. Building within our small village communities, adding to the tax base without infrastructure costs, making wise use of vacant land. We need incentives for clean industry, business opportunities, home-based businesses, tourist industry, high tech. We chose to live in a beautiful rural community, we need to honour that. In short, we need creative people who can think outside the box. And we need people with integrity who will always put the welfare of McNab-Braeside first. C. Sherrer Braeside

To the Editor: On April 12, 1980, Terry Fox wrote in his journal: “Today is the day it all begins.” On Sept. 14, 2014, over 115 Terry Fox runners participated in the 34th annual Terry Fox Run. The runners’ fundraising efforts over the years leave the Terry Fox Foundation grateful to their dedication. We are proud to share that our community of Arnprior has raised a remarkable $245,000; this year we raised $8,000 with 120 participants. Our day started off perfectly when a posse of horsemen representing the Ottawa Valley Team Penning Club rode up and gave us a saddle bag of cash. We knew we were off to a good start. The brawn of the McNab Fire Department once again attended and demonstrated great team spirit by wearing their uniform and tanks and put the track on fire. Thank you Kelly O’Rourke, Duanne Stevens and Trevor McCartney. Thanks must be given to the Arnprior Fair Board for allowing the Terry Fox Run operate at the fair grounds the last 34 years. I would like to thank Mayor Reid for attending and welcoming Terry Fox Runners; and acknowledge the Town of Arnprior Parks and Recreation department for their participation with the event. I would also like to acknowledge and thank Arnprior Lionettes Joan Kelly and Madeleine Sutherland for providing water to our Terry Fox Runners, Tim Hortons for providing coffee to our volunteers, and No Frills for providing oranges for our runners. Thank you also to the businesses that supported the sponsor page in the Arnprior Chronicle-Guide: Priority Wines, No Frills, Urban Ford, Dr. Henry Venema and Elizabeth Nesbitt, Nylene Canada, McDougall Insurance, Arnprior Chrysler, and Investors Group. Thank you to the volunteers that took the registration and looked after the BBQ: Allison Kenny, Corrine Finn, Deborah Stafford, Sylvia Murdoch, Guy Corchesne, and Jason Hunt. Thank you also for behind scenes work of Cindy Labrie, Giant Tiger, and Jerry Bertrand.
• Lose rural status and thus rural grants; • Lose rural identity even though it will still be a rural area; • Lose cultural and historical heritage; • Lose fire department. If there are cuts to Arnprior Fire Department, one of the rural sites will likely go. For example, we pay lower fire insurance because there is a fire truck close by in Braeside or White Lake; our rates will go up when they go. That one really got me thinking; • Rural values, concerns and needs will be displaced by larger numbers of ‘urban residents’; • Will there still be the same focus on upkeep and care of rural roads without a designated roads department? Who will have their streets/roads ploughed first in winter? • Expansion and development of Arnprior will be at the expense of M-B land without the control of how it is developed; no protection for agricultural land or natural heritage features. No open spaces; • Waste Management costs will be higher. M-B has 60 years left on its landfill, no industrial waste. Every week pick-up in M-B (Arnprior every two weeks in winter). • M-B will now pay for Arnprior debts and mismanagement if it exists; • Arnprior has millions of dollars of debt that has affected its credit rating. M/B has no debt.

This is a Fabulous Fall for Fungi This late summer there have been plenty of complaints about rain. It seemed that twice a week and on every weekend, precipitation fell. The rain has local rivers flowing at levels more representative of spring, and ponds and lakes filled to the brim. While the precipitation might have had negative consequences for yard sales and other outdoor events, it is providing very positive effects for one group of living things. This has been a most wonderful season for fungi. Currently, one can find mushrooms just about everywhere. They are sprouting from the ground and bursting out of old logs and aging tree trunks in a delightful array of form and colour. Currently, every habitat, from shady pine forests to sun-drenched peatlands, has a bumper crop of mushrooms. When you see a mushroom
Michael Runtz Nature’s Way you are seeing only the tip of the iceberg. Most of its structure lies hidden from view, a labyrinth of thread-like mycelium that spreads through the soil or decaying wood. A mushroom is merely the fruiting body of a fungus. When conditions are right - such as they are currently - a fun-
gus produces a fruiting body, which releases its spores into the air. Incredible numbers are produced: one Shaggy Mane, a common white shaggy mushroom that turns black after maturity, produces more than five BILLION spores, released at the astonishing rate of one and a half million per minute! Picking mushrooms has no negative effect on the fungus as a whole. However, that pastime could indirectly have a deleterious effect on some animals. Now, not that many animals eat mushrooms. Some slugs eat mushrooms. The grubs of certain flies and beetles, including Fungus Gnats, do. The endangered Wood Turtle does. And a number of small rodents also eat mushrooms. Except for the invertebrates dedicated to that diet, for most animals mushrooms are merely
a side dish. However, one species benefits greatly when a warm, wet late summer produces a large crop of mushrooms. That animal is the Red Squirrel. Red Squirrels eat some mushrooms when they are fresh. However, their main use of mushrooms occurs in winter. Now, apart from the hard-bodied Bracket Fungi that sprout on tree trunks, not many mushrooms can be found in that season. However, it is not these that Red Squirrels eat. Currently, Red Squirrels are collecting mushrooms that will be eaten during the winter. And they are doing something quite remarkable with their harvest before it will be enjoyed. The squirrels are hanging mushrooms across tree branches and under loose bark near to where they are being harvested. But why are not stashing the mushrooms in the same underground chambers in which they are currently storing spruce and pinecones? Because dried mushrooms last longer! Recently I was looking at squirrel drying racks and no-

Another favourite where available is the pinktopped Rosy Russula, which grows in mixed woods.

News – The Ontario Summer Jobs program provided 19,500 hours of paid work for area students this year. The figures were unveiled Sept. 15 at a breakfast at ontrac Employment Resources Services in Arnprior to celebrate the achievements of the program. Several employers, including the mayors of Arnprior and McNab-Braeside, attended the thank-you breakfast for participating in the program. The program provides funding for employers to hire students in the Arnprior, McNab-Braeside and Calabogie areas, bringing dollars into the local economy thanks to government subsidies. One of the employers on hand, Urban Donlevy of Urban Ford, applauded ontrac and the program, noting the counsellors did a masterful job finding students that fit his business needs. He said ontrac set up four interviews and “I wish I could have hired all four.” However, he did hire three summer students and one is remaining with the company.

Round one to the Redmen The Arnprior Senior Redmen opened the high school football season with an impressive 26-7 win Sept. 18 over the Renfrew Collegiate Raiders, last year’s Renfrew Country High School Football League champions. Redmen Zachary Major (29) and Josh Blackburn (38) make sure RCI quarterback Phil Kadlec goes nowhere on this play. A punishing Redmen defence didn’t allow the Raiders a point all afternoon at Renfrew’s Lindsay Athletic Field. RCI’s lone score came on an interception return midway through the fourth quarter. The Redmen play their home opener this Friday, Sept. 26 at 2 p.m. at Oattes Field when Fellowes visits from Pembroke.

Alex Couture of the Arnprior Senior Redmen celebrates a fourthquarter touchdown in Renfrew in the season opener for both teams. The teams square off again in the Turkey Bowl Thanksgiving Saturday (Oct. 11) at 2 p.m. at the ADHS field, following the junior showdown between the two schools.
Redmen receiver Will Ruddy couldn’t quite come up with this pass from quarterback Brody Flegal. However, Ruddy did catch pretty well everything else, including two TD passes, one an 83-yard pass and run play from Flegal to open the game’s scoring. Johnny ‘Football’ Russell and Alex Couture also had six-pointers for Arnprior while Thomas McMann added a pair of converts.

Seniors win early bird challenge Sports - The Arnprior District High School senior girls basketball team bounced back in a big way from their defeat on Thursday to arch rival Renfrew Collegiate Institute in exhibition play. The lady Redmen cleaned the table at the annual early bird tournament in Renfrew to claim the championship. In the first game the Redmen defeated Perth by a score of 46-37. Mikaela Appleby had a fantastic game inside and scored 10 points to set the tone. Emma Shoveller added 21 points of her own and the team as a whole played very good defense. In the next game the Redmen faced St. Joe’s from Renfrew and won easily by a score of
44-21. Once again a smothering team defence limited scoring opportunities for the Jaguars. Emma Shoveller had 16 points in a game that saw nine of 10 players on the scoresheet. In the championship game the Redmen ladies faced a tough North Grenville team. With 14 seconds left to play and a two-point game (3533) the Redmen ran an inbounds play at their end of the court that resulted in a wide open layup and three point play for Logan Kenny. The Redmen claimed the championship with a 39-33 victory. The ladies kick off league play on the road this week with a trip to RCI on Tuesday and then Barry’s Bay on Thursday.

Off to a good start The Arnprior District High School Jr. girls basketball team rolled over arch-rival RCI 39-18 in the first Dick Holmes Tribute Challenge game Sept. 18 at ADHS. It was a scrappy, high energy game, boding well for both teams. The Upper Ottawa Valley high school basketball season began in earnest Tuesday (after press deadline) with the ADHS sr. and jr. teams travelling to Renfrew to play RCI. The teams’ home openers are Tuesday, Sept. 30 when Fellowes comes to town for 3 and 4:30 p.m. games. Above, Arnprior strikes for one of its many second-half baskets in an exhibition win over RCI.

Arnprior’s first goal of the season rebounds off an Almonte defender during the home opener at Nick Smith on Friday night. The Jr. B Packers won 5-3 against the team that knocked them out of the conference final last year.

News – Students in the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board have outscored the provincial average in the 2013-14 Education Quality and Accountability OfďŹ ce (EQAO) assessments. Recently released results of the EQAO tests, which are given to Grade 3 and 6 students across the province, showed that Renfrew County Catholic board students notably exceeded the provincial average in all reading, writing and mathematics categories.
sessments.â€? The board is also pleased to note that St. Mary’s Catholic School in Deep River will be proďŹ led as one of EQAO’s school stories. “These schools have adopted action plans based on their unique circumstances, are committed to student success and work hard to ensure that students have the supports they need to achieve this success,â€? wrote Debra Rantz, EQAO chief assessment ofďŹ cer, in a Sept. 11 email.
TESTAMENT TO HARD WORK
DIRECTOR PLEASED
“The EQAO results are a testament to the ongoing hard work and dedication of our students and their teachers,� said board chair Bob Michaud in a news release. “We are very proud of our students’ achievements in these 2013–2014 as-
the “professionalism and commitment of our staff as well as the high level of engagement of our pupils.� “The EQAO results provide the Board program team, school leaders and staff additional evidence to guide continual improvement in instructional practice,� said superintendent of education Jaimie Perry. “An ongoing area of focus will be our mathematics strategy. While our students score well above the province in mathematics, we still see this as an opportunity for further growth and professional dialogue. “We know that our entire team has the professionalism and passion to equip our students with the foundational skills necessary to engage as 21st century learners. While we continue to seek growth, we are very proud of these overall results.�
“The EQAO results are an opportunity to celebrate the outstanding teaching and learning that animates our Catholic schools,� said the Renfrew County Catholic school board’s director of education Michele Arbour. She said she is grateful for

Public school board moves to search engine Google News – The Renfrew County District School Board has decided to just Google it. Since the start of the school year, the public board, its staff and schools have made the switch to Google Apps for Education, which provides free web-based email, calendars and document creation for collaborative study, anytime and anywhere the Internet is available. Not only is this service free to the board and its taxpayer base, but there are a ton of other advantages following the move. “The move to Google is a huge step in our efforts to create accessible, flexible and efficient access to technology solutions for our staff and students,” said the school board’s instructional technology leader Steve Blok in a news release. “In our pilot studies, we found the ability for staff and students to easily collaborate using Google Apps led to improved teacher-to-student and student-to-student feedback, which is an important part of the learning process. Anywhere, anytime, any device access also supports the RCDSB move to wireless and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). “Regardless of what device a student is using Google Apps for Education levels the playing field for everyone.”
GOOGLE APPS
Google Apps for Education includes dozens of critical security features specifically designed to keep data safe, secure, private and in the user’s control. With Google Apps for Education, everything is automatically saved in the cloud – 100 per cent powered by the web. This means emails, documents, calendar and sites can be accessed - and edited - on any mobile device or tablet. Fast, easy collaboration is what makes Google Apps unique. The Google website and document creation tools offer real-time editing, powerful sharing controls and seamless compatibility. Google Apps for Education can help stream-
line academic tasks like essay writing and class scheduling. A group of students can work together on a piece of work in Google Docs, seeing changes in real time rather than waiting for versions to be sent via email. Students can see exactly when their teachers are available and vice versa with Google Calendar.By removing these time-consuming bottlenecks, Apps frees them up to spend more time on learning and teaching. ACCESS TO SOFTWARE
Students, teachers and administrators always have access to the latest software, including the newest features and security updates. School board staff don’t need to buy or maintain serv-
ers and everything can be managed from a single interface. Not only are all board staff using Google email accounts, all students will have access to Google services. Students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 6 will not have access to Gmail (Google’s email service) but will have access to all other applications available to other students including Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, Google Drawing and Calendars as well as other apps. Students in Grades 7 and 8 will have limited access to Gmail being able to email and receive email from people within the public school board. Students in Grade 9 and beyond will have full access to Gmail. R0012905510

Wind attack in McNab-Braeside Summer went out like a lion with a couple of days of high wind, heavy rain and cool temperatures. One storm knocked out power in a large area of McNab-Braeside as it toppled several trees, including this one west of Arnprior. The first week of Autumn has resulted in much calmer weather, but the Farmer’s Almanac predicts a cold, snowy, long winter in these parts.

News - Driver distraction was a factor in two of the four fatal motor vehicle collisions the OPP investigated over the Labour Day Long weekend, pushing the number of distractionrelated roads deaths this year up to 39 in OPP jurisdictions. The drivers lost their lives over the same weekend that the OPP deployed its 10 re-purposed distracted driving enforcement sports utility vehicles across the province. While the vehicles will be enforcing Ontario’s distracted driving legislation full-time, these latest road tragedies reinforce the need for drivers, passengers and all other road users to become part of the solution, say the OPP. “If you are a driver, always pay full attention to driving and make a fulltime habit of turning off your electronic hand-held device until you pull over or reach your destination. “If you are a passenger being driven by someone who is talking on their cell phone, texting or distracted in some other way, firmly ask that they stop this dan-
gerous behaviour and tell them that you do not feel safe, even if they erroneously try to reassure you that they are able to drive safely while distracted.” As of the end of the Labour Day weekend, the OPP had laid more than 11,500 Highway Traffic Act 78.1 Prohibit Handheld Devices charges in Ontario so far this year. “Our officers are working as hard as ever to eliminate the senseless deaths that occur because of distracted driving but more needs to be done and we are asking the public to get on board, said OPP Highway Safety Division Commander Chuck Cox. “People have the ability to help positively influence the behaviour change ... needed on the part of those drivers who still feel that they can safely drive while distracted. Help make distracted driving socially unacceptable by spreading the word to family, friends, coworkers and schoolmates that there is no such thing as a safe distracted driver – distracted driving kills.”

If you are over the legal limit of 80 milligrams of alcohol, police may suspend your driver’s licence for 90 days and you may face criminal charges. “Only you can ensure your own safety,” said OPP chief superintendent Daniel Redmond. “Make a plan before you go out and stick to it. Your family, friends and the police appreciate it.”

News – The OPP is urging duck hunters and anglers to take extra care in making sure they have all the proper boating safety equipment plus extra survival gear when they are out on the water. “Everyone needs to remember that lifejackets and other safety equipment are still required at all times when boating,” says the OPP in a news release. “More clothes and equipment in boats make it all that much more important to remember to have a lifejacket that will fit over heavy clothing or better yet, wear a floater jacket or survival suit.” The OPP also encourage outdoor recreationalists to always tell someone where they are going and when they are expected to be home. If going to be out before sunrise or after sunset make sure you have proper navigation lights as required by the Canada Shipping Act, they add. And remember, everyone requires proof of competency on board all motorized boats. As for off-road and all-terrain-vehicles, the OPP offer the following safe riding rules to remember: 1. Always wear an approved helmet. Fluorescent orange helmets are available for hunters. 2. Never operate an ATV when consuming alcohol.

News – Renfrew County’s United Way is lowering its sights by setting a more realistic campaign goal this year. A gathering of public officials, industry leaders and not-for-profit partners officially launched the campaign at Bonnechere Manor Sept. 17, setting its goal at $400,000. Last year, the United Way fell short of its $500,000 goal despite extending the campaign into 2014. “As Renfrew County United Way’s 2014 honorary campaign chair, I’m excited to be part of this most important campaign that supports the communities of Renfrew County and its many residents who rely on the services and programs funded by United Way,” said Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon at the campaign launch. “The annual United Way campaign is critical in raising the necessary funds that will allow many recipient agencies to continue to provide important health and social services throughout the county. This is an organization which I am genuinely proud to be associated with.” In his closing remarks Emon said, “I’m pleased to announce that the United Way has approved a campaign goal of $400,000 … a goal we’re determined to reach with your help. “Without you, there is no way. Be the change that you want to see in your community. Get involved. “Partner with the United Way to help make change happen.

Sex offender supports on a shoestring Despite its success, the federal gov’t is pulling funding for Circles of Support, a program that helps high-risk sex offenders Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com
T
he day the doors to David’s prison cell slid open and he was free after spending five and a half years behind bars for sex crimes against children, he was given a one-way ticket to Ottawa and placed on a bus. Armed only with expired identification, a little cash earned inside prison and two boxes and a bag containing his few possessions, David arrived in the city with limited prospects. The challenges he faced reintegrating in society were enormous. There would be hurdles in finding a job and stable housing, securing money and proper identification and abiding by strict supervision rules that kicked in upon his release. “It had been almost six years,” said David, speaking under a pseudonym to protect his identity. “It was overwhelming. Scary, because you’re coming out into society and it’s open, it’s freedom. “So it was difficult at first, but eventually you blend into it.” The key to blending in, in part, proved to be two smiling women who met him at the bus stop as planned, – his first introduction to a surrogate network of friends and family who wanted to help him rebuild his life, and in the process, ensure he would not reoffend. They are among more than 50 volunteers with Circles of Support and Accountability-Ottawa, one of 20 CoSA programs across Canada through which 500 volunteers are helping nearly 200 high-risk, highneeds sex offenders reintegrate in society after prison. “At first I didn’t know what to do. I have no social life,” said David. “There was a bit of boredom, a bit of loneliness, but I was able to talk to CoSA about it.” Each week, he met with his group of four volunteers to talk about his is-

While critics are alarmed by the federal government’s decision to cut off essential funding to a successful program that safeguards the community by helping higher-risk sex offenders stay victim-free after prison, offenders themselves say the program has been key to ensuring they do not commit more crimes.

They provided him with friendship and support, referring him to services in the city that could help him. Positive social supports, experts say, combined with sexual-behaviour counselling and treatment, are key to ensuring former offenders such as David do not fall back into their old patterns, leading to more victims.
After almost a year with CoSA, David seemed to be doing well. He had stable housing at a halfway house for ex-inmates and was taking part in a counselling program there. He had found work. But he was keeping secrets. David was unlawfully using a cellphone to access the Internet and messaging people. He became evasive with his volunteers. “I was doing OK, but I didn’t tell
them what I had or what I was doing. I didn’t want to get caught. I didn’t want to go back to jail,” he said. “Because then we would’ve been obliged to report (to police),” recalled Susan Love, program co-coordinator of CoSA-Ottawa since 2002, the year it was officially established with funding from Correctional Service Canada. “I thought I was going to get away with it, and then I went further,” David said. His volunteers knew something was wrong. Suspicious halfway house staff found restricted items, such as his phone, in his room. That day, when David returned from work, he was arrested. He was convicted for breaching his release conditions and spent eight months in a detention centre and another eight in prison. “It was so disappointing,” said one of his volunteers, who requested anonymity to protect David’s identity. “I knew something was wrong, and he was very good at hiding.” She and Love stuck by him, and CoSA agreed to support him again after his release in exchange for promising to abide by several extra conditions. “I didn’t have to continue the relationship, but I thought, ‘Hate what they do, don’t hate the person,’” the volunteer said. “It’s unconditional.” David is back living at the halfway house, working full time and meeting with his CoSA volunteers. “It’s based on trust and through trust the guys open up more. It’s like a friendship, almost like a family that develops,” said Love, who currently oversees more than 50 trained volunteers helping 11 men in Ottawa – with two more on the way – many of whom have been convicted of multiple violent sexual offences against children or adults. “The thing is we all have circles of support – family, friends, colleagues. They often have nobody.” Many high-risk sex offenders are considered such a high risk to reoffend they are kept locked up for the duration of their sentence. The day they are released, many no longer fall under the jurisdiction of Correctional Service Canada, nor are they eligible for continued support, treatment or supervision. Their success becomes doubtful, the reason why many voluntarily participate in CoSA, the only program of its kind. But supporting and holding these
people accountable for their actions costs money, and funding cuts from the federal government are imminent. FUNDING ISSUES
CoSA-Ottawa is now scrambling to find long-term funding, but may have to consider eventually closing its doors. It is not alone. Seventeen of 20 CoSA programs across Canada will lose about $300,000 on March 31, 2015, from Correctional Service Canada – including $12,000 from CoSA-Ottawa. The funding was originally slated for the chopping block on March 31, 2014, but was reinstated for another year after Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney asked the correctional service to reconsider. Beyond next March, the department will continue to fund $325,000 annually to the Mennonite Central Committee of Ontario, which supports more than 50 Circles in southern Ontario. While the cuts were made “following a rigorous budget and program analysis of the community based initiative,” CSC agrees the program is effective. “Volunteers and partners such as CoSA actively engage community support which is essential to building safer communities,” federal corrections spokeswoman Melissa Hart said in an email. When asked if the department will reconsider its decision, she said all CoSAs are encouraged “to actively seek out other sources of ongoing funding.” The saving grace over the past five years has been a $7.5-million project through Public Safety Canada’s National Crime Prevention Centre researching the effectiveness of the program at 16 CoSA sites in 19 cities. The results have not yet been published. Of that, Ottawa’s program has received $82,000 annually, which has also allowing it to expand its programming, help more participants, improve volunteer training and screening and hire a part-time assistant and casual bookkeeper. With the contract set to expire on Sept. 30, CoSA-Ottawa is cutting everywhere it can – the bookkeeper has been let go, and the assistant will leave at the end of the month. Continued on Page 6

BY THE NUMBERS
Continued from Page 5
The charity recently secured two $10,000 one-year grants from the Community Foundation of Ottawa and the Anglican Diocese of Ottawa. “We’re definitely not out of the woods,” said Love. The optimal annual cost to fund CoSA, and help cover expenses, such as rent and allow Love to work full time, is between $80,000 and $100,000. But at the end of the month, CoSA will need to survive on $32,000, $10,000 of which can’t be used for salaries. That total will be further reduced by $12,000 at the end of March. “This is certainly not sufficient to continue to operate at capacity, so I will likely have to be reduced to part time which is problematic with our increased numbers,” said Love, whose role includes providing oversight and intervention. “And if I’m not able to do that because I’m so busy applying for grants and that sort of thing then that’s not safe.” It’s too soon to tell whether the Ottawa Circles will have to be scaled back to some degree. “So I don’t know if we’d have to tell some guys, ‘Let’s look at the highest risk to reoffend,’” said Love. “I don’t want to have to make that kind of judgment call.” CoSAs have proven extremely successful in curbing reoffence rates. A national study of two groups of 44 offenders from 2005 to 2007 revealed those who relied on CoSA after prison sexually reoffended 83 per cent less and violently reoffended 73 per cent less compared to the group that did not have Circles. Of the 35 men who have participated in the Ottawa program since 2002, one reoffended sexually, though less severely compared to his previous crimes. Some, like David, have breached release conditions. “(That) is a small number, but when you think of the number of victims who have not been affected because of those 35 guys, that’s hard to quantify,” Love said. The funding cuts are creating a new crisis in a system already plagued by problems, according to Dr. Paul Federoff, an Ottawa-based forensic psychiatrist who was involved in forming Canada’s second Circle in 1994. The release that year of notorious pedophile Wray Budreo, who had dozens of convictions for molesting boys, prompted outrage, but

The program must do without Adina Ilea, right, part-time CoSA data co-ordinator and program assistant for the past five years. also a positive grassroots response. Because he had fully served his sentence, Budreo was being discharged homeless and without community supervision, which Federoff says still happens today. Media attention was intense, and under the cover of darkness one Sunday night he was secretly driven from the prison chaplain’s home to Federoff’s office. “We set up on that day one of the first CoSA Circles and I’m happy to say that person never reoffended,” said Federoff, a forensic psychiatrist and director of the Sexual Behaviours Clinic at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre. In another example, a sexual predator would wait at the bus station for children to get off the bus, then invite them to stay at his home, where he would assault them. “He was released from the federal penitentiary and driven to the bus station where he was left,” said Federoff. “That’s how our system works now, with no supervision.” Parole is designed to allow an offender to transition back into the community with some level of supervision. But over time the Parole Board of Canada has become increasingly conservative to the point where a federal high-risk sex offender is kept imprisoned until his sentence is complete, said Federoff, who treats and provides therapy to 70 people a week, some of them former offenders who also receive support from CoSA-Ottawa. “So they go to immediate free-

dom in the community with no supervision at all – probably the worst possible scenario that you could think of,” he said. “And that’s now become routine.” Police agree there is an enormous gap in providing support to dangerous offenders who are deemed “too bad” to be released early. “The people who are lower risk get all the resources and the people that were too dangerous to be released on parole get nothing,” said Staff Sgt. Dana Reynolds, head of the Ottawa police high risk offender unit, which is responsible for monitoring high-risk offenders, among other roles. “It’s kind of like a strange loophole in the law.” Parolees, as well as those offenders such as David whose postrelease supervision orders include a residency stipulation, have access to halfway houses, treatment and the support of a parole officer. But there are many who are released free and clear without support and are going into homeless shelters as a result. This sets them up for failure, said Reynolds, reason why, over the past year she has tried, though unsuccessfully, to secure grants in partnership with organizations such as the John Howard Society of Ottawa to pay for dedicated beds in halfway houses for this population. Homeless shelters offer many temptations, such as drugs, and police say it can be difficult to track those who don’t have a fixed ad-
dress, adding to the already challenging job of monitoring those who relocate to Ottawa. “Our best monitoring is a phone call every now and then, maybe a door knock here and there, but really it’s not like they’re being followed around or anything,” said Reynolds. “We don’t have the resources or the ability to do that.” LEADING THE WAY
CoSA is making serious inroads in ensuring there are no more victims. Canada is, in fact, internationally regarded as the founder of the CoSA model, which has been emulated by several nations, including the United Kingdom, the United States, the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain and Ireland. South Korea launched its program in August. “This is a made-in-Canada solution,” said clinical and forensic psychological consultant Robin Wilson, who, as Correctional Service Canada’s first community based sex offender specialist hired in 1992, helped form the first Canadian Circle in 1994 around repeat child molester Charlie Taylor. Though there was a 100 per cent chance Taylor would reoffend within seven years of his release, he never did in 12 years of freedom before his death in 2006 – similar to Budreo’s case. Their Circles are largely credited with those successes. Continued on Page 7

Positive inroads in the treatment of sex offenders were made in Canada in the late 1980s, followed by the introduction of training for parole officers in sexual offender risk management. This led to improved treatment, supervision and a reduction in reoffence rates, Wilson said. But experts have watched over the years as program delivery officers have been replacing psychologists in the treatment of incarcerated sex offenders, who, Wilson said, are functionally equivalent to guards. In response, Correctional Service Canada spokeswoman Véronique Rioux said the department’s programs differ from counselling and psychotherapy and are delivered by “specifically trained” correctional programs officers to groups of inmates, serving as structured interventions that target factors linked to criminal behaviour.
with a psychologist and two facilitators every day for several hours over the course of eight months. But when he was sent back to jail for breaching his conditions he could only see the psychologist three times in eight months because other higher-needs prisoners came first. “Mine wasn’t a high need,” he said, but added while he wanted to see a specialist every two weeks, there were only a handful of psychologists for all 600 inmates. “I knew I’d done something wrong and I wanted to know where I went wrong,” David said. Three visits in eight months is not sexual offender treatment, according to Wilson. “That would be like taking an aspirin three times over the course of a month and thinking that it’s going to deal with your (chronic) headache,” he said, adding that such inconsistent support is unlikely to manage the problem long term or lead to lasting change. In addition, Wilson said there has been a push in the last five to seven years for prisons to provide less specialized programming to a larger swath of inmates. “But in a generic program there will be aspects that don’t apply to one group or more, such as sex offenders,” Wilson said. Federoff also notes that federal prisons no longer offer treatment for low-risk sex offenders – which the correctional service confirmed was stopped in 2010 based on research showing they benefit more from other interventions than correctional programs. Meanwhile, those at a high risk to
Studies reveal that 15 per cent of sex offenders will sexually reoffend within five years after getting out of prison. Interesting new research shows the likelihood of even highrisk offenders reoffending drops every year they don’t commit another crime, Federoff said. CoSA plays an important role in ensuring former offenders live crimefree, which caught the attention of several American states, where Wilson is providing training and technical assistance in the creation of Circle programs. “The Circles model is growing in the U.S. With each passing month we get more calls for further support for Circle startups,” said Wilson, who also served as chief psychologist for the correctional service’s Ontario region from 2001 to 2005. “Yet, in Canada, where it is our idea in the first place and where we seem to have done quite well with it, we’re continually fighting with the government for continued existence funding.” While the U.S. is embracing CoSA and other community based solutions, Canada is moving away from rehabilitation to an expensive tough-on-crime model that focuses on incarceration, tougher sentencing and elimination of statutory release, said Wilson. “Right-wing people in the United States are advising the federal government in Canada, ‘Don’t go that route. We went that route. It cost us a ton of money. It’s not working,’” he said, adding that research shows more punishment in most cases results in more crime.

These programs are based on cognitive-behavioural strategies and skills that teach participants to learn how to deal with those risk factors that led them to offending, Rioux said, noting the department also employs teams of mental-health professionals, including nurses, psychologists and social workers, to work alongside correctional staff. While behind bars, David joined a group of sex offenders who met daily
reoffend often cannot access sex-offender treatment until the tail end of their sentence, Federoff said. “I think prisons are excellent for isolating people who are dangerous and for punishing, but they are terrible for treatment,” he said. Community based treatment, such as that offered through Federoff’s outpatient clinic at the Royal, also helps reduce reoffending. Studies show those offenders who complete treatment will reoffend about 40 per cent less than those who haven’t. Some victims may resent offenders getting such support since not enough is spent on victim services, said Steve Sullivan, executive director of Ottawa Victim Services, but he understands the important role CoSA plays in protecting more people. “I also believe that not properly funding CoSA is short-sighted and will mean helping fewer offenders, which possibly means more victims,” he said. “So, from a policy perspective, even if some victims are opposed, the federal government should be funding programs that prevent victims.” David, who is grateful for his second chance, credits CoSA and halfway house staff with helping him refresh the coping strategies and other tools he learned in prison. “I had dysfunctional relationships in the past and I think I would have had those again if I didn’t have the support I did,” he said. “I would have got into another relationship and back into drugs and then maybe, perhaps – that’s the cycle – I end up eventually reoffending.” Despite breaching his conditions and going back to prison, he says he

knows the value of having people in his life with whom he can share his thoughts and feelings – a new skill he learned in prison. “I know I didn’t have them before and I offended, and the chances would have been higher for me of reoffending again if I didn’t have that, I think,” he said. That is why, without CoSA, or faced with a scaled-back version of the program, the community should be very concerned, Federoff said. “I think that society should look forward to more offences,” he said. “Taking away support from the highest-risk people is the most dangerous thing you can do because they are the ones most likely to reoffend.”

Man cycles away from cancer treatment No effects for years since leaving B.C. with canine companion “So I decided to take my dog for a walk.” He hasn’t experienced any symptoms since. He stopped taking medication more than a year ago.
Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com
News – Sheila is accompanying her best friend during his walk away from cancer. Sheila, an 8-year-old German shepherd, started out from Chilliwack, B.C. with Frank Sapach in January 2013. Using a bicycle held together in places with duct tape and a homemade contraption for Sheila and their camping gear, Sapach was spotted in Arnprior heading to Ottawa on Sept. 18. Told by his doctor that he had two choices to address his cancer - surgery or treatment - Sapach put his best friend first. “I thought how would I find her a home if I died in the hospital,” he said. “They had me convinced I wasn’t going to live as long as my dog.
TWO FOR THE ROAD The pair camp on the side of highways, eat rice, meat and veggies (no dog food), and splurge on a motel every once in a while. The overhead accommodations are less about enjoying comfort than securing Internet access to update his blog. He doesn’t receive any benefits from the government because he doesn’t have a permanent address. The lifestyle isn’t far removed from his days in Alberta and British
Columbia, drifting about in his truck and camper, working odd jobs. Living alone with a dog. Maybe that’s why he insists on raising money for abused dogs not cancer research. They’ve always been his closest companions. Just as he was about to explain how he brings in money, two women pull off a busy Daniel Street to put $30 in his cup. “It’s a wonderful thing you are doing,” one said. Sapach isn’t worried that if he stops cycling the cancer will return. He is pretty nonchalant, saying the bigger concern is a sore ankle and osteoarthritis. Considering he has another 1,500 km to reach his destination in Halifax, sores like that can proving taxing. Sapach’s blog misspells Sheila’s name. It is shielastrip.blogspot.ca/.
DEREK DUNN/METROLAND
Sheila’s in her favourite spot, behind Frank Sapach’s bicycle, on a stopover in Arnprior. The two were to pass through Ottawa on a crosscountry quest to raise money for abused animals.

Dravet Walk raises more than $50K Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
News - It was a record-breaking weekend for the McKnight family. The third-annual Dravet Walk for the Kids in Constance Bay raised more than $50,000 and donations are still coming in, said Mandy McKnight. The McKnights have been a face for Dravet syndrome since local and national media outlets began reporting on Liam McKnight’s rare form of epilepsy that causes dozens of seizures per day. His parents, Mandy and Dave, developed a novel way of administering medicinal marijuana to treat his seizures; they use oil in order to control dosage, rather than have the six-year-old smoke it. Media outlets picked up the story after news that the federal government restrictions rule out any methodology except smoking. The increased attention saw more than 400 participants walk the field at the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre on Saturday, Sept. 20. One hundred and ninety-six of those walkers allied themselves with Liam’s Army. “It was so amazing to meet you all and your friends and families. I would like to thank everyone who helped pull off such an amazing event for our kids, you are too many to list but we couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you,” wrote Mandy in a Facebook post she emailed to the Review. “On a Liam’s Army personal note I want to say you guys are amazing and I am emotional even writing the words … All I can say is ‘we can feel the love.’ Thank you so much for supporting us always.” Eleven other teams and families took part in the event, walking for someone close to them. Eight-year-old Ava Falsetto of Ottawa South was surrounded by her family and friends, all holding signs reading “Go Ava Go.”
PHOTOS BY JESSICA CUNHA/METROLAND
The McKnight family – mother Mandy, Maya, 8, Ava, 9, father Dave, and six-yearold Liam – has helped raise awareness for Dravet syndrome since speaking out about their experiences. The McKnights have organized the Dravet Walk for the Kids for the past three years. Sean Bellefeuille, of Orléans, had a team of family supporters wearing “Sean’s Hope” T-shirts. Six-year-old Rylan Anderson, in a purple Hero for Hope cape, was the face behind “Rylan’s Warriors.” The team travelled to the west end from Bourget, Ont. to take part in the Dravet Walk for the Kids event. Funds from the event support Dravet.ca to raise awareness about Dravet syndrome,
provide support and information for patients and their families, and fund research for improvements in medical diagnosis and better treatment options. St. Michael’s Fitzroy School, where Liam is a Grade 1 student, also held a fundraising walk on Friday, Sept. 19, bringing in more than $1,000.

A bittersweet goodbye Penny’s Fudge Factory owners to retire this October, no new owner yet jessica.cunha@metroland.com
J
udy Gravel is looking forward to enjoying a cup of coffee on her porch. The co-owner of Penny’s Fudge Factory will retire with her husband, Syd, on Oct. 13. It’s not that they don’t love their work – they do – and in fact, they don’t really view it as work. “It’s your baby, you don’t really see the work you put into it until someone points it out to you from outside,” said Syd. They both just feel it’s time to relax, spend more time with their two grown sons and their grandchildren, and spend time exploring their own backyard after promoting tourism for years through the Ottawa Rural Tourism Committee, a group they helped found. “We’re going to do a bit of travelling; we’ve always promoted tourism but we’ve never been tourists,” said Judy. For the past 25 years, Judy
has woken up at 5:30 a.m. to be over at the shop by 6 in the morning. The time before the doors opened at 10 a.m. were devoted to cleaning the store, placing orders, arranging and re-arranging displays, and making up to 70 pounds of fudge. This routine was followed Monday through Sunday, May to December. There are no days off when running a shop, said the Gravels. “I’m very proud of it. You work hard at it and it shows,” said Judy. “I guess it’s going to be bittersweet, leaving.”
J
udy, 64, and Syd, 62, have been thinking seriously about retirement for the past two years. They began telling people they were hoping to sell the busi-
S
yd and Judy made their retirement announcement on Sept. 11, which happens to coincide with the day the two got engaged 39 years ago. It wasn’t planned, but it was a nice coincidence.
That first year, everyone who walked in and bought gas got a free sample.
JESSICA CUNHA/METROLAND
Judy Gravel - seen working one of the fudge kettles behind the counter - and her husband Syd (not pictured), owners of Penny’s Fudge Factory in Fitzroy Harbour, are retiring on Oct 13. The couple are still hoping a new owner will take over the business but so far, no one has stepped forward. The Gravels bought the property in 1989 when it was a gas bar and variety store. Their sons were six and seven years old at the time, the Gravels in their late 30s. Judy left her job as a nurse and Syd quit his position with the city so they could focus on the store.

ness. “We’re hoping someone would come up and say ‘I’d like to take this over,’” said Syd. “That didn’t happen so we had to make a decision. “Suddenly, you wake up one morning and you know that’s it. You know it’s the right decision.” Sitting in the back room of Penny’s, Judy said her granddaughter would be performing in her first dance recital that night. She asked her grandmother if she’d be there to see it. “I said ‘No, I have to work,’” said Judy. “We’ll be there one day to watch her.”

yd and Judy watched people grow up – in front of and behind the counter. Children who used to visit Penny’s with their parents and grandparents are now bringing in their own families, children and grandchildren. Former employees have gone on to successful careers; one is now an emergency trauma doctor, others are themselves retired. “There’s been a lot of very funny stories and things happening over the years,� said Judy. “I still remember the first large sale, it was $60.� “We couldn’t believe someone would be willing to spend $60 on fudge,� added Syd. They know their customers by the types of fudge they order. And that’s something they’ve both immensely enjoyed – meeting the people who walk through their doors. “I hope they hear the news,� said Judy. “I hope they find out that way than driving up and seeing a sign.� Every year, between 1,500 and 1,700 people step through the doors. Every year has been a growth year. They ship their fudge

When business for gas wasn’t booming, Judy began making fudge to keep customers interested. “That first year, everyone who walked in and bought gas got a free sample,� said Syd. Interest in the fudge increased, and people began visiting the store just for the sweet treat. When the gas company pulled out, the Gravels cleaned out the property and went fulltime into the fudge production business. They renamed the store Penny’s Fudge Factory – in an ode to Penny, the previous owner of Penny’s Place – and added the word “famous� to the sign out front, after some advice from a friend. That one word paid dividends. People would point at the sign and say “See? They are famous,� Judy said. “That was really good advice.� Through their work, they became known as a stop point and Penny’s Fudge Factory was added to highway and road signs as a destination. The shop has won numerous awards over the years and garnered a following from across the world.

Tuesday was the day to undertake the ritual of ironing Lifestyle - It never failed. Every Tuesday morning, Mother lamented all through breakfast about the job ahead. The washing had been done the day before: on Monday. It mattered not if it had hailed, snowed, rained, or the wind blew at a gale force, Monday was wash day, and that’s all there was to it. And that made Tuesday the day to do the ironing, and it was the one household chore Mother hated with a passion. It had little to do with the job itself, it had everything to do with the irons she had to use. These were clunky, heavy lumps of iron, oval shaped, and to use them there was a clamped handle that fitted over the base, and the clamp, when released hugged the iron, making it secure and ready to use. The handle had to be separate, because there were always at least three bases sitting on the stove getting hot.
MARY COOK Memories
On Monday night, the iron bases were put right on the front burner of the Findlay Oval, so that they could absorb as much heat off the stove as possible, ready for the morning ironing. Mother had seen the latest in irons through the kitchen door at a neighbour’s house on the next line, but had no intention of ever getting something she was sure could blow up the old log house as quick as a wink if it took the notion. It was an iron with a container attached to it, which held gas, and that heated the iron...no siree, Mother wasn’t going to take a
chance on one of those new-fangled contraptions! As much as she hated the irons she used on the farm, at least they were safe! She had enough to worry about with the coal oil lamps, which she always treated with great respect. The clothes would have been taken off the line late day on Monday, and neatly folded in at least two hampers. Washing for seven people meant there would always be plenty of laundry. And of course, the clothes had to be folded and piled in order. Heaven forbid that the sparkling white tea towels should ever come in contact with something of a darker colour. Not because the colours would run, but simply because that’s the way it was done back then. Like colours together, and the whites separate from everything else! Mother would have the kitchen

ready for the ironing before we headed out for school. Two straightbacked chairs would hold what passed for an ironing board. It was nothing fancy like the ones you could buy at Scott’s hardware...ones that sprung up and locked in place. No this ironing board was a smoothed off piece of lumber, wrapped in many layers of well-used flannelette sheets, and topped with one or two opened-up white flour bags, well bleached beforehand of course. It was set on the backs of the two kitchen chairs, and then everything was ready for what would take the better part of Mother’s Tuesday. Of course, much of the laundry had to be dampened. So Mother brought a small basin of water to the ironing board, and dipping her hand into the water, she sprinkled each piece royally and then rolled it into a tight sausage shape. These were the pieces of clothing that had to have the wrinkles ironed out, and there they sat like little logs until ready to be ironed. These damped pieces would be hankies, the dress shirts Father and the brothers wore to church, the little Peter Pan collars that adorned so many of our dresses in those Depression years, bringing a bit of relief to our very plain wardrobe, and the hand-embroidered pillow cases. Even the hems of the flour-bag sheets would be ironed. When we went off to school, Mother would already be bent over the ironing board. At one end of the board was a saucer, and here Mother kept a block of wax, and occasionally I would see her pass the hot iron over this wax. But I never knew the purpose of the exercise. All I knew was it
was a part of that Tuesday’s ritual. When we came home from school on ironing day, you could still smell the sweet scent of freshly ironed clothes. The board would be gone from the backs of the two chairs, and tucked behind the door out in the summer kitchen, where it would stay until the next Tuesday. On the bake table, would be the neat stack of freshly ironed tea towels, the boys and Father’s shirts neatly folded, the pillow slips, and anything else that needed to have one of those heavy irons passed over it. And hanging on the back of the kitchen door would be spanking clean aprons at the ready. The iron bases would be sitting on tin pie plates cooling off so that they could be put away until needed again. Mother would be dead tired that night...having stood most of the day over the ironing board. My sister Audrey would be given the job of putting all the clothes away, and when I helped her, I couldn’t resist pressing my nose against the clean pillow slips, capturing that fresh smell of the outdoors. And I would wonder, but never dare to ask, why we didn’t change our bedding on Tuesdays instead of on Saturdays, by which time that wonderful scent of freshly ironed linens would be gone.

Above is the right photograph of Island View residents Ross and Francis Robertson admiring fellow resident Father Len Lunney’s antique car. The Lunney family bring their antique car collection to Island View suites from as far away as the U.S. several times a year for the residents to enjoy. This time the occasion was Grandparents Day. The Robertsons seemed particularly interested in what the Lunneys referred to as the ‘Love Boat’. SHARON GRAY/SUBMITTED

Community - Together the organizers from Arnprior-BraesideMcNab Seniors At Home Program send out a ‘massive’ thank you to one and all who contributed to their Great McGonigal Street Fall Yard Sale held Sept. 13.

Thank you to our neighbours on McGonigal Street who hosted their own sales in connection with the Great McGonigal Street Fall Yard Sale, to everyone who donated items for the sale, and to all volunteers and staff, some who assisted in the very early morning hours and stayed until the very end, even though a little wet. Thank you to those who provided refreshments. You folks are the best. And last but certainly not least, thank you to those businesses that assisted in the planning stages and needs of the yard sale committee: staff of the Nick Smith Centre, ChronicleGuide, M&M Meats, Pakenham Horticultural Society, Giant Tiger and Jenn Spratt of the Galetta Recreation Association. We could have not done it without everyone’s cooperation and involvement. Thank you.

The importance of fall and winter grooming
SHERRY HAAIMA/METROLAND
Paws for the Harvest The first ever Paws For the Harvest, a fundraiser for the Arnprior and District Humane Society, has been deemed a success. The event, held Sept. 13 at the Arnprior Shopping Sale, featured all kinds of produce and products donated by local growers and businesses, with proceeds going to the shelter. Above, Val Hemphill, a member of the board of directors, shows off some of the many items on sale.
Pet Adoptions
Lifestyle - Back to the basics, fall and winter is probably the most important grooming time of the year. This time of year creates all kind of coat challenges with the weather constantly fluctuating. As well, our homes are heated at this time of year and forced air natural gas can be hard on coats and electric baseboard heating is dry. When the temperatures increase our pets’ coats start shedding and then as the temperature decreases their coats tighten up. This constant up and down makes for a coat nightmare and if not looked after your pet may end up being shaved right in the middle of a cold snap. Most pet owners think a coat that is thick and full is the way to keep them warm and cuddly during the colder months of the year. This is actually far from the truth. A coat that is not well maintained throughout the colder months has absolutely no thermal properties and therefore is not keeping your pet warm at all. Think of it like wearing a down jacket full of holes and heading out the door on a cold day. Yes, you’re wearing a down jacket. However it won’t keep you warm if the jacket is full of holes.
Pet Talk
IAN STUPP To make matters worse, a matted coat introduced to water (snow, slush and freezing rain etc‌) mats even more making it so tight against the skin that the only humane way to remove is to shave it off. Another analogy would be like walking around all day with a very tight ponytail, could you imagine the headache you would have and how uncomfortable you would be. At this time of year it is very important that dog and cats coats are combed and brushed out on a regular basis. Also they should have the opportunity to visit a professional groomer to have the undercoat removed making homework easy to do. All too often I hear owners complain that their pets hate
being groomed because they fight bite and walk away. I would hate it too if you were pulling at me because I had mats so deep that they could not be removed easily and painlessly. The other misconception I hear is the use of conditioner. Trying to detangle an entire dog with conditioner is like trying to find a large band aid after swimming in shark infested waters. Conditioners work well in situations where you have an otherwise perfect coat and you want to remove a little tat behind the ear. Comb and brush time is also a great time to bond with your pet. It’s a great time to get down on the floor and show them just how much you love them and how you are willing to keep them as beautiful as they deserve to be. A happy healthy coat will result in a happy and health pet that will give you years of joy. Ian owns and operates Wags & Whiskers Dog and Cat Grooming and Puppy Kindergarten at 118 John Street North Arnprior.

HOYT D/S/H NEUTERED MALE 2 YEARS OLD
This handsome boy is Luther! Luther has had a rough life and we’d like to see him find a home where he will be spoiled and loved! Luther was abandoned in the country, he found someone that would feed him but there was no one to love him. One day he was attacked by another animal leaving him with an injury and unable to walk. He was brought to the shelter with a broken, infected leg. After lots of TLC and cage rest, his leg has healed & he is now healthy and ready to find a loving home. Luther is a sweet boy, he’s affectionate and friendly, playful & curious. He is a small cat that tends to get over looked. Do you have room in your home & heart to love this much deserving boy?

Lifestyle - The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) host natural history talks throughout the year in Almonte. These lectures have been taking place more or less regularly since the club’s founding in 1988. You do not need to be an expert to enjoy these presentations, just a fascination and curiosity for the natural world. Speakers are experts in their fields, often at a worldclass level. The information provided, whether giving insights into a particular species or habitat or even a global environmental issue, is up-to-date, and there is a focus on the local perspective. This means the lectures really are worthy of and likely
of interest to a larger local audience than attend the talks. In order to spread the word to a wider audience, volunteer MVFN reporters diligently write up accounts of the talks for the local media and for posting on the club’s website. As one of several 25th anniversary initiatives, MVFN decided to publish these lecture reports in book form last year. The first volume, Natural History Lecture Series of the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists 2013 is now available on loan from the Almonte Branch of the Mississippi Mills Public Library. The book and individual lecture reports are also available for download from the MVFN website at mvfn. ca Accounts of other MVFN
natural history lectures may also be found on the website as well the announcements. Topics include Citizen Science Networks, Lanark County Soil FUNdamentals, Ground Beetles-My Favourite Group and other topics ranging from salamanders, arctic groundnesting birds, flying squirrels, green ‘aliens’ and more. Also included in the volume are the speaker biographies and contact information, and some key references. MVFN’s lectures began again for a new season earlier this September. The talks take place in the social hall of the Almonte United Church on Elgin St. in Almonte. Mark your calendars for the next presentation on Thursday, Oct. 16.

Sidewinder ‘excited to be playing’ at Carp Fair Shoppers launches
Tree of Life campaign
Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
News - Sidewinder is gearing up to open for country star Joe Diffie at the Carp Fair on Saturday, Sept. 27. The country-rock band will perform with Pakenham singer and songwriter Delaney Grant before Diffie takes to the stage. “We’re just very excited to be back in Carp, playing locally, and hopefully leaving the crowd with an awesome evening,” said Carp resident and band member Shawn Lynch. “We’re very excited to be playing locally and for opening up for somebody like Joe Diffie.” Sidewinder – which includes Barry Recoskie, Glen Getz, Bryan Mask and Terry Mask – had a fair-ly busy summer, playing a number of shows at the Navan, Log Jam and Shawville fairs, and is set to play the Richmond and Metcalfe festivals this fall. For the Carp Fair, Lynch said
SUBMITTED
Sidewinder will perform with Delaney Grant and open for Joe Diffie at the Carp Fair on Saturday, Sept. 27. the band plans to play upbeat new and old country favourites for the crowd. “It’s quite a mix and variety that a lot of other cover bands can’t play,” said Lynch. “What we try to do with our vocal approach and music approach we try to replicate the song as
close as possible to the original artist.” After 26 years of playing with the same group of guys, Lynch said they have a great rapport. “We’re all good friends and we work well with each other. We know how to respect each
other’s camaraderie and opinions. It’s a lot like a family dynamic,” he said. “We don’t always agree but we’re able to work things out for the benefit of the client – and that’s the focus. We try to leave everybody asking for more.”
Lifestyle – Shoppers Drug launched its 13th annual Tree of Life campaign Saturday, Sept. 20. The national four-week campaign runs until Oct. 17. Over the years, it has raised more than $23 million, with the projected goal of $3.1 million this year to help fund women’s health charities across the country. Proceeds from the Arnprior campaign will go to the Arnprior and District Breast Cancer Support Group. The campaign provides Shoppers customers with the opportunity to buy and personalize a ‘Tree of Life’ icon; a ‘leaf’ for a loonie, a ‘butterfly’ for $5, an ‘acorn’ for $10 and a ‘cardinal’ for $50. The icons are prominently displayed on the Tree of Life in all participating stores, including the one in Arnprior. “The Tree of Life campaign offers patients, customers and employees the opportunity to donate directly to the organizations that make a difference to women’s health in their own communities,” said Shoppers community investment director Lisa Gibbs. Taking into account the significance of each need and which women’s health organization resonates most deeply with the community, each associate-owner selects a women’s health organization to benefit from the funds raised from their store’s Tree of Life program. A total of 487 local women’s health charities are being supported this year.

He is promoting his new record, The Lemon Squeeze, in the cross-Canada tour.

News - There will be no Festival of the Senses in the Burnstown-Calabogie area this year. Calabogie and Area Business Association (CABA) president Byron Hermann notified the business community of the cancellation Sept. 9. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are several reasons for this,â&#x20AC;? Hermann said of the festival, which usually occurs in late September or early October. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The main one is the lack of persons to help with the organization of the event,â&#x20AC;? he explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Secondly, it is increasingly difficult to get enough funding to cover the costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Various organizations are still having events (Calabogie Artsfest, Carp Expressions of Art) on this weekend (the first weekend in October) and that is great. I hope you will all support them,â&#x20AC;? Hermann added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I look forward to a re-vitalization of the festival next year.â&#x20AC;?

HOWARD DIETZMAN
supporters in Julie Resmer and family, who live about halfway between Haley Station and Cobden. Dietzman needed a break when attempting the Vancouver to Ottawa portion of his trek a year ago. He happened to stop at Resmer’s, hoping to use the front lawn for a sleep. They did one better, offering him a warm place to sleep and a meal. On Aug. 26 of this year, he made a scheduled stop. “Several families like Julie and Mike have invited me in. I’ve asked about shelter during rain storms and they invited me in and treated me like family,” Dietzman said. “I think that’s really impressive.” Dietzman calls this, his third time, as his charm trip. PETER CLARK/METROLAND The first time, two years ago, he started in Vancouver, but after 14 Howard Dietzman, who is riding across the continent from Vancouver to New Jersey, went through the Arndays of wet feet, he flew home from prior area in late August.

Sports - Howard Dietzman is bicycling from Vancouver to Ottawa, and then back home, which is about a hour outside New York City. You may have recognized him a couple of weeks ago. The 81-year-old from Hillsborough, New Jersey made his way through the Ottawa Valley, along Highway 17 Aug. 26-27. There is no fundraising involved. “It’s for my pride,” he said, and Dietzman enjoys it. “I have bicycled across the U.S. three times, and once from New York to Alaska.” Dietzman has nothing but good things to say about Canadians. “When I was 15 years old, I was brought around through Banff. I was impressed by their sincerity, their friendliness and their hospitality. They are nice people,” he said. “In some ways, I wanted to see if that was still the case, and it is,” he added. “People have helped me out in various times of trouble. Maybe they didn’t know I was in trouble,” he said with a laugh. Dietzman has gained friends and

We, the family of the late Catharina Straathof, who passed away on September 1, 2014, wish to express our sincere thanks to the personal support workers who provided exceptional home care, to all of the staff and volunteers at the Grove Nursing Home for their care and compassion, and to all of the staff and volunteers at the Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital, especially the palliative care team, for their kindness and support. We also wish to thank Father Burchat of St. John Chrysostom Parish for his many visits and prayers in hospital, and the ladies of the CWL for their prayers at the visitation and the funeral. We are grateful for the outstanding care and attention provided by Andre Pilon and the staff of Pilon Family Funeral Home. We sincerely thank the special team who gathered to serve refreshments at the funeral reception. To everyone who thoughtfully delivered food, sent ďŹ&#x201A;owers, helped with the farm chores, provided hospitality for our out of town guests, dedicated mass intentions and gave charitable donations in Catharinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory, and to all those who reached out with messages of condolences and offered their support, and who shared their fond memories of her with us, we thank you.

We would also like to thank everyone who helped out with food at the time of her passing, and to those who made donations in her memory to the Palliative Care unit at the Arnprior Hospital or to Valley Heritage Radio. Special thanks to the outstanding staff in the Palliative Care unit at the Arnprior Hospital who were so compassionate and caring with mom during her time there. Mom appreciated everything you did for her, and we appreciated all the kindness you showed towards her and the laughs that were shared. In lieu of thank you notes, we thought it would be most ďŹ tting if we made a donation in momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory to Valley Heritage Radio, the station has lost an extremely loyal listener and fan.

For no one knows the heartache That lies behind the smiles, No one knows how many times I have broken down and cried. I want to tell you something, So there won’t be any doubt, You’re so wonderful to think of, But so hard to be without. Lovingly remembered your wife Beverley

I’m missing you so very much And still asking God why? I don’t know what will happen When I face another day. What will tomorrow bring? Will I cry or be okay? This rollercoaster of emotions To the worst ride of my life. Nothing can prepare you For the never ending strife. I may not handle my emotions The way that I should do. But I still thank the Lord For the time I had with you. DMN

He will be working on the garden in early October. If you have a few hours and would like to help out, you are invited to contact Graham at 613-623-8187.
