A deal for Renfrew County to partner in the acquisition of the abandoned CP Rail line for use REGION as a multi-purpose trail is near, County council was told last week. Development and Property Committee chairman Bob Sweet .COM updated councillors at its regular meeting Sept. 23 on the discussions that would see the counties of Renfrew and Lanark and the Township of Papineau acquire the corridor that runs through Arnprior and McNab-Braeside. The plan is to have a 300-kilometre trail run from Smiths Falls to Mattawa, with 218 kilometres being in Renfrew County. Sweet said a deal is close at hand, and the legal aspects of the proposed acquisition are being divided between the partnered municipalities. Once the counties gain control of the line, they can started public sessions to determine how the trail should be best developed and controlled. Recreation will likely be included, but whether motorized vehicles will is moot.

Branching out Island View Retirement Suites decided to do something a little bit different as part of its active aging week activities. After staff and residents enjoyed many hours this summer at the majestic Robert Simpson Park, they pledged to plant a tree on site. Living up to that promise on Sept. 30 are residents Pat Shaw, left, and Pat Leclair. Leclair has tended to a few maples in her time; she was environmental engineer at the experiment farm in Ottawa for years.
A break-in and damage occurred over the weekend at a volunteer church-run social services organization premises in Arnprior. Someone busted a side window at the former Alexander Reid Public School. The vandals set off a fire extinguisher near the back end of the building, stole at least three shirts and made off undetected. The incident happened sometime after 8 p.m. last Friday at the NeighbourLink Fountain, according to volunteer Anne Montgomery who was the last to leave the premises that evening. “Somebody broke a window in the sorting room,” Montgomery said. “A couple of pieces of clothing are gone, but we can’t see anything else missing.” NL Fountain is place where those in crisis, suffering isolation or coping
with low income can find refuge. The Christian-based non-profit group will link people with agencies equipped with the resources to address their unique challenges. The Fountain also sells or gives away clothing and house appliances (items needed to get started in an apartment). It is also a place for lowpriced meals, group activities and companionship. Which is what makes it “frustrating” that someone could discharge a fire extinguisher in the café foyer, according to founder Lois Bogar. “It’s unfortunate and disappointing,” Bogar said. “That’s life, I guess. Kids will be kids. I’m just grateful nothing else was upset.” The sorting room - a first stop for donated items – enjoyed much natural light before the break-in. See NOT SO page 3

The side window busted to gain entry at NeighbourLink Fountain will be replaced with a wooden board. The natural light enjoyed as volunteers sorted through donated items will be gone.
Not so neighbourly experience at the Fountain Now that the window is gone, it will be replaced by a wooden board. A fine yellow dust covered everything in the room. It took four people about four hours each to clean up the mess. More hours will be needed as the dust continues to settle on books, wall hangings and more.
“It will take several days for the dust to land, but we have lots of volunteers quite eager to see things cleaned up,” Montgomery said. It is time-consuming, but the Fountain volunteers at the 128 Mary St. location did get some good news from Arnprior Fire Department. “It’s not toxic; the fire depart-
ment told us that,” Montgomery said. “We are very fortunate that way because it is so close to the café.” She added that most clients and staff are trying to take the violation in stride. Only one gentlemen to date was “very upset” about it. Board chairman Robert Jones led by example, doing most of the glass clean-up
and more. “The break-in and vandalism were more of a nuisance than a significant set-back,” Jones said. For anyone with information on who might have been involved, OPP Const. David Ladd is investigating. The Arnprior OPP satellite office number is 613-623-3131.

It was a chance for seniors and other members of the public to talk to the riding’s federal election candidates about issues that matter to them. Golden Age Activity Centre in Renfrew hosted a meet-and greet Oct. 1 with the Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke federal candidates vying to be elected MP on Monday, Oct. 19. Incumbent Conservative MP Cheryl Gallant, Liberal Jeff Lehoux, the Green Party’s Stefan Klietsch and Independent candidate Hec Clouthier spent a few hours at the centre Thursday afternoon. NDP volunteer Brian Shackleton filled in for Dan McCarthy. Jim Panton was there to speak to the candidates. “I’ve listened to some of the party leaders and they sort of scare me, what they’re going to do and what the actual cost is to middle income and seniors, who have to pay for it,” said Panton. “My own personal feeling is the economy and employment are the major issues,” he added. He said he is leaning towards staying the course and voting for Harper. “He seems to be doing not too bad,” said Panton. Evelyn Lacharity was also at the event to do some information gathering. High on her list of concerns was the lack of jobs in the area. The 55-year-old moved to Renfrew with her husband five years ago and a good job has been hard to come by. She was hoping to hear from the candidates what their parties had planned to address the issue. She said recent news about how the Trans Pacific Partnership will negatively affect dairy farmers is also concerning. Gallant said the Conservative government has a number of initiatives that support seniors. “New in 2015, we’re increasing the tax free savings account contribution limit from $5,500 to $10,000,” she said. “We’re reforming withdrawal rules so that the annuities, the registered retirement income funds, can last longer.” She also noted that her government will extend the employment insurance compassionate care benefit from six weeks to six months. “To balance out incomes, the tax advantage for single seniors, we are allowing a $2,000 tax credit for single seniors to bring them in line with the ability of

He also said he personally supports changing CPP retirement income so that it’s deducted from income tax as opposed to only providing tax credit on taxes.
“It can be problematic when middle class incomes are taxed back after all those working years,” he said. Independent candidate Hec Clouthier called out Gallant for her vote in support of raising the retirement age. “I’m not going to do what Mrs. Gallant did and vote to raise the old age pension age from 65 to 67, thereby taking, ballpark figure, $14,000 out of each and every potential senior citizen’s pocket See NEED, page 6

couples to income split,” said Gallant. “Probably the biggest new initiative this year is the home accessibility tax credit,” she said. “People can spend up to $10,000 on a renovation to make their home more mobile-friendly and get up to $1,500 in tax back.” She also mentioned a just-announced initiative that will further protect seniors from fraud. Lehoux outlined Liberal Party policies that will address the issues facing seniors. “We are committed to, within three months, working with the provinces and territories, making them equal partners, in order to enhance CPP and old age security up to a dignified level of living,” he said. “We are going to create a new seniors costing index independent of the consumer index that will guarantee that as the cost of living goes up every year so do pensions such as CPP and old age security,” said Lehoux. “We are not going to cut income splitting for pensions,” he said. “And we’re going to be putting $3 billion more over the next three years into home care.” The party’s newly –released health care policy really has some teeth, Lehoux added. “We’re looking at creating a new Canada Health Accord,” he said, noting the Conservatives voted not to resign the health accord, thus removing baseline funding to the provinces. A new mental health strategy and national pharmacare strategy are also being proposed, he said. Klietsch said he’s been hearing from constituents that transportation is a big issue. “The Green Party supports widespread investment in municipal infrastructure,” he said. “We’re going to dedicate a single point of the GST or $6.4 billion a year for infrastructure like rural roads, wastewater treatment facilities or railways.” “We support rejuvenating light railways,” he said. With regards to the Canada Pension Plan, the Green Party supports doubling the year’s maximum pensionable earnings from the current $50,000 to up to $90,000 or maybe even as high as $122,000, said Klietsch. “The Green Party supports increasing contributions to the program to try and get a 40 per cent replacement rate,” he said, noting he personally disagrees with that policy. “I think it’s gouging the incomes of the working poor

The card further indicated the preferred method of a campaign contribution payment and where such payment could be sent. “We other candidates were invited for some coffee and conversation with a group of seniors. Mrs. Gallant was as well, but she decided to cheapen the event with some old-fashioned arm-twisting along the way,” said Clouthier. “Unimpressed, I approached Mrs. Gallant directly with one of these cards, indicating to her that, in my opinion, she ought to demonstrate a little more class than to show up invited to a senior’s event and turn it into a campaign shakedown. “In front of several others, Mrs. Gallant opted to do what she does best when challenged. She left, immediately, without a word.”

“Anyone who is 54 and younger, who will turn 65, Mrs. Gallant voted on the floor of the House of Commons to raise that age,” Clouthier said. “But what does she care; she can retire tomorrow with about a $100,000 a year pension paid for by who, all these same senior citizens with their taxes.” Clouthier noted he was on the board of directors of the St. Joseph’s non-profit housing. “I know all about the senior issues,” he said. The organization had some housing geared to income, some low income and some market rent. “That’s what we need, we need more of those types of facilities because for goodness’ sakes, a lot of seniors just can’t afford to be living on their own any longer. It’s a sacred trust and we should be looking after our seniors,” said Clouthier. Shackleton said his personal
Independent candidate Hec Clouthier has taken offence to Cheryl Gallant’s method of campaigning at a meet-and-greet held at the Golden Age Activity Centre in Renfrew last week. One of the seniors at the centre brought the issue of Gallant soliciting support, including contributions, at the event to Clouthier’s attention. “Exchanging pleasantries, one of the seniors brought to my attention a card that had been given to them by Mrs. Gallant, saying to me ‘Look, Hec, she wants even more money from us!’” explained Clouthier. “I wasn’t entirely sure what was being referred to, but did ask if I could see the card a little more closely to examine its content. Getting permission, I looked at what was clearly a campaign card that, to me, was as offensive as it was insensitive.” The card featured three statements, each preceded by a blank box that would be where a person would
in health, home care: Lehoux
A Liberal government will modernize the country’s health care system and make an immediate investment in home care for Canadians, says Jeff Lehoux, Liberal candidate for Renfrew-NipssingPembroke. “Canadians here in Pembroke and across the country take great pride in our health care system,” he said in a news release. “Not only is universal health care the bedrock of middle class security, but it ensures that we remain healthy, happy, and productive throughout our lives. That is why a Liberal government will make sure our health care system is sustainable, and can meet the challenges of our aging population by prioritizing and investing in home care.” A Justin Trudeau-led Liberal government will re-engage on Canadian health care and negotiate a new Health Accord with provinces and territories, including a new, long-term agreement on funding, Lehoux said. This will include: • an immediate investment of $3 billion over the next four years to prioritize additional and improved home care services for all Canadians; • improving access and reducing the cost of prescription medications; • Pan-Canadian collaboration on health innovation; • increasing the availability of high-quality mental health services. “For over a decade, Harper has refused to engage in the conversation we need to have about our health care system,” said Lehoux. “We need a partner who understands that to get Canadians the health care they need, it will require a serious and substantial response from the federal government. Only the Liberals have the leadership and the plan that will ensure people here in our riding are able to access a strong and sustainable health care system, now and in the future.”

Green candidate opposes ‘secretive’ Pacific Trade Treaty had even less debate on the process than the U.S. In addition, the White House has acknowledged the inclusion of Investor State Dispute Settlement provisions. These articles authorize three-person tribunals to decide lawsuits against future legislation that reduces the expected profits of foreign investors, and order compensation wherever “indirect expropriation” has occurred. Klietsch pointed out that hundreds
of economists in open letters have warned that these provisions could threaten the development of new financial regulations, while another hundred law professors have argued that these arbitrators lack necessary checks and balances on their powers. “How are our tax dollars being protected when they are being held hostage to potential compensation orders by kangaroo tribunals?” Klietsch dissents from official
Green Party policy in his opposition to the dairy monopoly and auto tariffs. Nonetheless, he agrees these institutions and the CBC’s Crown Corporation status should not have been secretively traded away. “The best trade policies are those that can be explained to ordinary citizens,” he said. “Under Stephen Harper’s watch, democracy has been sold for the lowest price on offer.”
Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke Green Party candidate Stefan Klietsch has declared his opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) reached Monday. The trade agreement led by the United States with Canada and 10 other countries has been reached in secret in negotiations that started in 2010 and has too many negatives for Canadians, Klietsch said in a news release. A poll last June found that 75 per
cent of Canadians have never heard of the TPP before, he noted. He added that the trade negotiations have been criticized for secretively excluding the general publics of each member country from reading agreement drafts, while 600 corporate lobbyists were included in the process. Within the U.S., the TPP has been denounced by hundreds of civil society organizations in open letters. Klietsch charged that Canada has

ment and $10 million to promote international exports.” With the company’s green energy mission and its ability to turn waste into jobs, it seems ideal for a forestry area such as Renfrew County, he added. It faces bureaucratic and other obstacles, however, in getting its product widely accepted and used, said McCarthy. The company sells most of its product to users in U.S. states that have brought in the kind of cap-and-trade carbon reduction systems like the one proposed by New Democrats. McCarthy said Stephen Harper’s
Conservatives have failed to make forestry or manufacturing of related products a priority at home or in developing trade strategies. “We need to ensure Canada’s forestry sector remains innovative and competitive to create the highly skilled jobs needed to move the sector forward. “Stephen Harper has undervalued Canadian forestry, failed to invest in manufacturing, and left existing federal funding oversubscribed to the detriment of the sector. Tom Mulcair will work with the forestry sector to leverage private sector investments and create new opportunities.”

The Conservative Party would strengthen Canada’s Special Forces to ensure that Canada is fully prepared to address “a growing terrorist threat,” says the party’s Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke candidate Cheryl Gallant. “Our Conservative Government has made the rebuilding of the Canadian military a top priority since we took office,” Gallant said in a news release last week. “Only a re-elected Conservative government will provide the Canadian Armed Forces with an expanded Special Forces capability to respond to varied, and sometimes multiple, national and international emergencies.” After the ”politically-motivated decision by the old government” to disband the Canadian Airborne Regiment, Gallant said she has been focused on regaining those “lost capabilities” for the country. As MP for Base Petawawa, Gallant said she has overseen the expansion of Base Petawawa, including bringing the Canadian Special Operations Regiment (CSOR) and the Chinook Helicopter Squadron to Petawawa. To ensure that Canada’s Special Operations Forces are fully able to carry out all of their vital tasks, a re-elected Conservative Government would expand the strength of the Special Forces by about 35 per cent by 2022 - an increase from its current strength of just over 1,900 regular force personnel, she said. “This is great news for the local building industry, the real estate market as well as the service sector in providing local jobs to meet the needs of our local expanding military workforce,” said Gallant. “There is a catch. This only happens with a reelected Conservative government.”
Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke NDP candidate Dan McCarthy got a firsthand look at forestry innovation in the riding during a recent visit to Ensyn Technologies, a leading-edge factory in Renfrew where wood waste is being turned into fuel oils. Ensyn’s core technology, Rapid Thermal Processing, converts food biomass from the forest and agricultural sectors to high yields of light liquids. At the Renfrew plant, the biomass used, for the most part, is softwood sawdust. The technology produces a renewable fuel oil, a petroleum-replacement that is used for heating and also serves as a

Saying goodbye to a friend T he Ottawa Valley lost an icon on Oct. 1. Max Keeping was a reporter, a news anchor and he came into thousands of homes every weeknight across Ottawa and eastern Ontario on CJOH, later CTV Ottawa. But he was more than that. He could have lived a 9-to-5 life and headed home after the cameras shut down at the end of each newscast. But he was more than willing to do much more. Keeping knew he was considered a friend to his viewers. He could have capitalized on that by appearing in commercial advertisements but he made the choice to put all his effort into helping those less fortunate. Keeping backed charities across the region – notably Rock for CHEO in Arnprior – encouraging viewers to help too, all in that familiar, calm tone of voice. He was a frequent visitor to Renfrew County, giving a friendly boost to charity efforts here, particularly if they included the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. Who could fail to respond when a friend asked for help? So Keeping was iconic. But he was more be-
cause he was not just a celebrity seeking more fame and more notoriety. He saw that kind of opportunity existed but made a conscious decision to take a pass because kids, seniors and so many others might benefit from his connection with TV viewers. An example that touched our reporting staff: one cold winter’s night in 2003, Keeping drove straight from his newscast to the old bingo hall in Ottawa, arriving minutes after 7 p.m. simply because he’d been asked to help out. He arrived to call out the final bingo numbers as one lucky player won a new car. It was all for charity of course. And the connection this region felt with Keeping was on display for all. As he walked in the room and gave his familiar wave, he received a standing ovation from the packed house. He was good for the region and the region knew it. He lived life to the max. The greatest tribute anyone can pay to Keeping’s lifelong support of charities is to make sure the efforts continue. If you were inspired by Keeping and his mantra: do something to make a difference in another’s life.
Conservatives pave way to reintroduce another gun registry To the Editor: I’ve never in my life until now been particularly concerned with politics. But now that I know about Harper’s attack on the basic values of Canadians and his abuses of power (see www.thetyee.ca for the lists), I’m very concerned. It’s clear that most of us don’t want another four years of Harper rule - 65 to 70 per cent aim to vote for someone else - yet there is a danger that he and his local minion, Cheryl Gallant, might regain power over us. The only way to prevent this from happening again is to vote strategically. While Hec Clouthier might appeal to people who are fed up with the main parties, independent MPs have no power in Parliament. If Hec were elected, he wouldn’t be an independent voice; he’d be a voice in the wilderness. I don’t understand why he’d run if he wants

Nevertheless, I am hopeful. I hope that gun owners in the RNP riding know or will learn about the decision by the president of the National Firearms Association to run against Harper because of the Conservative Party’s treachery around Bill C-51. The NFA was duped into withdrawing its opposition to the bill, which adds new restrictions on firearms and on the rights and freedoms of Canadians. C-51 paves the way for Harper to reintroduce the gun registry in the form of databases

And surely other RNP riding residents can’t vote for the party that destroyed Atomic Energy of Canada Limited by selling its valuable commercial arm for a pittance while Mrs. Gallant stood idly by. It’s been shown by www.strategicvoting.ca
that the best chance to defeat Cheryl Gallant is by voting for the Liberal party candidate. We are fortunate that the Liberal candidate is Jeff Lehoux, an enthusiastic, energetic, sincere, and smart veteran. Jeff understands the issues in our riding and would be an excellent MP. It’s very important for us get out and vote, and to vote strategically if we have any hope of a change for the better. Jeff Bishop Arnprior

Don’t split the progressive vote To the Editor: I read with interest the different points of view in recent letters to the editor. As someone who has had a large enough dose of Stephen Harper, I have a different take on this election, especially in this riding. I agree with the Liberal slogan, “Let this be the last unfair election.” To me, what that means is that each and every
person in every riding has to vote, not with their heart, but with their head. We don’t get to vote for the prime minister. We only get to vote for our Member of Parliament, currently Cheryl Gallant of the Conservative Party. If I use my heart, I vote for the Green Party. However, I would use my head and choose to vote for the candidate that seems to have the best shot at beating Ms. Gallant. In my opinion, this is
Jeff Lehoux, Liberal candidate for R-N-P. If I am right, when you head to the polls hoping to defeat the Conservatives, and you vote Green, NDP or Independent, you are in fact splitting the progressive vote into four. And Ms. Gallant wins again. We badly need electoral reform in our country. But the Conservatives don’t want it. The only way they can win is in a first-past-the-post system.
This needs to change. I urge you to check the polls in our riding and vote for the candidate with the most likelihood of unseating our Conservative MP. After electoral reform, whatever system the parties choose (and there are many), you will be able to vote for whomever you prefer and it will count. Imagine that! Elaine Lowe Arnprior
Mac Beattie made Max Keeping love the Valley “He was a very very well known man!” This will be but only one way in which Max Keeping will be referred to in the future. Celebrity, humanitarian, news anchor, fundraiser, character and a “good friend of the people” will, no doubt, be used as well. He has been called an “outlaw” (in the sense that certain ‘70’s country artists were referred to) and he once stated that he was “honored” to be ranked amongst them. For more than 30 years Max was a fixture on the CTV Ottawa Evening News. Each night more than 200,000 viewers in Ottawa and the Valley would tune in religiously to see him deliver the news. In the past, titles such as Newsline and CJOH News were as much a part of the common everyday language as the terms family farm, lumberjacks, snow and maple syrup. Max Keeping encompassed all of that and more. Born in Newfoundland, he came to the Ottawa area during the mid ‘60s and began his broadcasting career on CFRA radio. Shortly thereafter, he moved over to channel 13 (CJOH) and remained there until his retirement. He credited his longstanding relationship with the late legendary Valley singer/songwriter Mac Beattie as being key to understanding and basis for the love of the Valley that he came to hold so dearly. “Mac was a dear friend to me and so much more,” Max shared. “In fact, I’d have to say he was like a father to me and I both loved and respected him dearly. A finer man one would be hard pressed to find,” he added. “In fact, it might well have been Mac that first called me a Newfie Cowboy and I’m
first time. Then I found out that he knew just proud of that term as well.” During the years he has been a celebri- about everything. And from that time on we ty, Max has been involved with numerous became sort of a silent cheering section for causes and in extensive charity fund raising each other. He often sent a crew out to cover some activities. The list goes on and on but it’s suffice to say that he never turned his back fundraising event that I might be involved with and always helped us in getting much on a good cause. He did this because he felt it was his needed publicity. However the thing that amazes me most responsibility as a public figure to use his name and popularity to serve others and the about the man was his incredible popularity and the magnetism he had with people. Just community as a whole. “If we don’t reach out to those in need, one of those rare persons who possessed then we have failed in our roles as people, that quality. No better a person to possess this qualjournalists, celebrities, or whatever,” he ity then someone such as him. A rare find said. In an interview he shared (that as well as indeed. And a great one at that. being an avid country music fan), he was Lyle Dillabough also one serious “metal-head” and loves Carleton Place groups such as Metallica, Deep Purple and Ozzie Osbourne. “I told my granddaughter that one had to ‘experience’ them once and 245 DANIEL STREET them see them again to ‘rememARNPRIOR ber’ them,” he said with a huge 613-623-6551 laugh. www.canadiantire.ca “Every day is a gift from God and we all need to see it that Licensed Automotive Technician way,” he explained.

To the Editor:
Tuesday, September 22nd is a date that will live forever in our memories. The beauty of an early autumn morning was shattered by the terrible news that grew worse as the day went on. Much has been written about that day and the murders of three innocent women. News reports have articulated the chronology of the facts, so I will not use this column to reiterate them. I did deliver a short statement in the Legislature on Wednesday the 23rd that is available to watch by going to my website: http://www.johnyakabuski.com/videos What we are left with in the aftermath is a community that is hurting terribly. No one who discusses this tragedy can do so without also asking themselves—and one another—why did this happen? Could it have been prevented? And what measures are required to hopefully ensure that it never happens again? The wounds will lay bare for some time, as the families and friends of victims, the family of Basil Borustski, and the rest of us, will be forced to relive this experience as the case progresses through the justice system. Supporting one another will be a big part of the healing process. My wife Vicky and I were able to attend a candlelight vigil in Wilno on the 25th. It was beautifully done and helped begin that healing process. I want to thank all those who helped organize it in such a short period of time. At the provincial level, I believe that this certainly requires some serious examination and discussion as to where the system failed and how it could be improved. We owe that to the memory of Anastasia Kuzyk, Nathalie Warmerdam, and Carol Culleton. On the personal side of things, our family is about to go through a significant change— something we had not experienced until this point. While your children grow up and move away, for Vicky and me they haven’t gone far. But that’s about to change. Our daughter Emily, her husband Tom, and our granddaughter Adelaide are moving to Fort Smith, Northwest Territories. We are experiencing what so many other families have as well—children moving farther and farther away to pursue a career or to follow one’s dream. But we also understand that they know better than anyone what is best for them and their family. In my job I get to talk to a lot of people and realize we are not alone. We’re going to enjoy this Thanksgiving together and celebrate the many blessings that have been given to us. Please accept our wishes for a wonderful Thanksgiving for you and yours as well. Autumn can certainly bring us some of the most beautiful days of the year; and so far it has been pretty nice. Let’s hope it stays that way for a little while longer.

Soldiers make possible the freedom to withhold taxes To the Editor:
members of our society do great injustice to the men and women who serve in the Armed Forces. We have lost many soldiers in the name of peacekeeping and the author would deny them funds and still expect to be made safe and secure within our peaceful nation. We can speak, enjoy and truly bask in the peace this nation offers us. I am, of course, speaking of the peace we won over two major wars at a cost of many lives that we both

took and gave. Now I’m sure Ms. Gibson and her ilk would leap at this moment to counter with tales about bombings in the Middle East. A fair argument, well within reason, but why insult those very men and women who are putting and have put their lives on the line? Why not petition the government to change its policies? Because, frankly, our Army, Navy and Air Force are putting their lives at risk all the time.
They serve the people of this country in times of need. Floods, forest fires, missing persons; the military is on call 24/7 to protect this nation and serve its people. People enriched with the luxury of freedom and peace to the point of insensibility or insensitivity. People who may find their house threatened by flood waters and then rescued by soldiers with sandbags. I agree with Ms. Gibson’s right to withhold her taxes as long as it
is possible to prevent her from enjoying the fruits of rescue and the freedom made possible by the brave women and men of our Canadian Armed Forces who aren’t killers, but angels.

Dare to act for those who no longer can To the Editor: The most damaging aspect of abuse is the trauma to the heart and soul, being betrayed by the people that we love and trust. Sadly Anastasia Kuzyk, Nathalie Warmerdam, and Carol Culleton are the latest victims in Renfrew County to be murdered by a man they were doing everything in their power to keep away. It has taken years for the veil of silence and secrecy to be lifted with regards to women being murdered by intimate partners. Society and the media are finally coming to terms with the realization that domestic violence is no longer a private matter. There is a marked shift in the way we discuss abuse and the voices of family, friends and victims of domestic violence are finally being taken more seriously. The Criminal Code of Canada, which serves to provide protection for victims and sanction offenders, appeared to only slow
down what court documents show as a man intent on not letting go, a man determined on exercising his power and control, a man who after three weeks of being released from prison is now charged with the murder of three beautiful women. We do know the courts tend to treat each case as an isolated incident without considering patterns of behaviour. Violence escalates
Abusive and violent behaviour needs to be scrutinized in all the forms that a perpetrator subjects on their victims. The slap, the kick, the push, the demeaning comments, the control, etc. eventually lends itself to increase patterns of violent behaviour. By continuing to look at abusive behaviour in isolation, we do not validate or authenticate women’s endangerment. The vigil that was held Sept. 25 in Wilno spoke of honouring Anastasia, Nathalie and

Carol. As well, it shines a light on the other l8 women in Renfrew County who died at the hands of their intimate partner and to all who have been murdered at the hands of violence. It was not a time to find blame, but rather acknowledge that we as a community of men and women have the opportunity to change society. They no longer have that opportunity. According to reporter Heidi Davoren: “Those in the media need to play a greater role in ensuring honest, discussions around domestic violence and intimate partner abuse take place. Sharing stories, however difficult as that may be, is a key component to ultimately evoking change.” As a community we know abuse is happening, and everyone, men and women, need to be part of the solution in order to stop it.

The death of three young children and their grandfather by an alleged drunk driver in that horrific road crash in Vaughan, Ont. on Sept. 28 will renew the call by many to reduce the criminal limit for drunk driving to 0.05 BAC (blood alcohol content) from the current 0.08 level. Canada set the current criminal blood alcohol level (BAC) at 0.08 for impaired driving over 35 years ago. An internal federal government study in 2010 warns that lowering the bar for drunk driving convictions could overwhelm the justice system. The justice department says that courts, police services and jails could be pushed to the breaking point if the federal government ever lowered the criminal drunk-driving threshold. Canada’s practice of not using criminal law for drivers under 0.08 is in line with the approaches taken in other countries. Canada’s impaired driving laws are among the strictest in the western world. Lowering the criminal limit would nullify many effective countermeasures now in place. If criminal charges were to be laid below the current threshold, that many more, if not all, would be challenged. A significant concern and risk in reducing the criminal limit below a
point most Canadians would consider unreasonable is that it would encourage contempt, disrespect and disdain for the law. Unquestionably, this would weaken the resolve of the criminal justice system (police, courts) to enforce the law. The current criminal BAC limit has been universally accepted by Canadians and the criminal justice system for well over 35 years. Tinkering with this criminal limit could well open the doors to a barrage of defence challenges. Frivolous criminalization will not protect the public. There is absolutely no evidence that charging low-BAC (0.05) drivers under the criminal code would prevent more deaths and injuries than measures now in place in provincial and territorial regulations. When it comes to dealing with impaired driving, the current administrative and criminal sanctions in place in Canada provide a well thought-out mix of effectiveness, efficiency and severity. Let’s keep it that way. What is needed is to increase the perception of apprehension, and to improve the system’s efficiency and effectiveness in dealing with impaired driving offenders.

Characterization of Hec’s nomination efforts misrepresented To the Editor:
participate in the nomination process, as all the other candidates involved did. It appears, however, he felt that this did not accord him the special treatment he thought he deserved, so he stomped off feeling unappreciated. This behaviour typifies the old-school politics and assumption of acquired rights some people have not been able to understand can no longer be the way to function.
tion of the actual facts in Hector Clouthier’s nomination-seeking saga. No one invited Mr. Clouthier to become the Liberal candidate, nor did anybody invite the other candidates. Wouldbe candidates apply and, if their credentials are found to be satisfactory, they are green-lit to run for nomination. Mr. Clouthier may have been asked to apply for green-lit status and then, if you were granted,
Re: Paul Dumas’ letter. I might be able to understand the resentment Mr. Dumas evidently feels over Brendan Edge’s characterisation of old curmudgeons. I, a near octogenarian, confess I do not have the same sensibilities. Be that as it may, I cannot, however, condone Mr. Dumas’ blatant and deliberate misrepresenta-
Mr. Dumas’ suggestion that the process be delayed until such time as a vacillating Mr. Clouthier should decide to throw his infamous hat in the arena was wrong. For Mr. Dumas then to decide to cut his ties with the party is regrettable. His distortion of the truth is shameful. Hector Clouthier, who once pronounced publicly that an independent member is next to useless in serving his riding ef-
fectively, is now making a show of his commitment to us all, by stepping forward to serve again – as an independent candidate. It could, rather, be perceived as an arrogant, self-serving attempt to get even, as he knows the division he will cause may well assure a further term for the incumbent. Finally, the accusation that Jeff Lehoux and his organization pushed for early closure for the selection process is un-
worthy. Mr. Lehoux had no influence on the timing of the proceedings. He did, however, win an open, fair and very close nomination race. Anyone who can be bothered to read Jeff’s bio will learn of his military service, his courage and determination during recovery from his awful injuries in Afghanistan, putting himself through university, and carrying out four trips to bring humanitarian aid to sub-Sa-
haran Africa. During that time he also demonstrated strong organizational and negotiating skills. At home, he is active in charitable endeavours and has also served as a volunteer firefighter in Renfrew. I urge your readers to vote for Jeff Lehoux. He will prove to be an exceptional representative for our riding. Adam Bramble Arnprior
Gallant seems to be more interested in light bulbs than unborn To the Editor: It is interesting and rather upsetting that Cheryl Gallant publicly ranted and raved about replacing light bulbs rather than speaking out on behalf of the unborn.
Mrs. Gallant was nowhere to be seen yesterday (Sunday, Oct. 4) at the pro-life vigil in Pembroke. The only candidate who was there demonstrating his support for pro-life and the unborn was Hector Clouthier.
I suppose Mrs. Gallant was afraid to face the pro-life people because of RU-486, which is the abortion pill her government has recently allowed to become available in Canada. Mrs. Gallant has actively courted
pro-life organizations in Renfrew County, but her actions clearly shows her courtship is hollow and shallow. Shame on you, Cheryl Gallant, for being more vocal about the plight of replacing light bulbs than speaking
out on behalf of protecting the unborn. It is my sincere hope that people see through your manipulation and deception . Marianne Standing Pembroke

With expanded access, this assistance will now be available to Ontarians with all kinds of infertility, regardless of sex, gender, sexual orientation and family status. This is an increase of about 4,000 new patients each year. Infertility affects one in six Ontarians at some point in their lives. Working with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario, the Ministry is ensuring patients receive the highest quality of care in hospitals or in non-hospital fertility clinics. This is great news for Ontarians who have struggled with infertility. I wanted to ensure that your readers were aware of this very important announcement by the Ontario government this week.

There is big news in Ontario health care this week. The Ministry of Health and Long Term Care announced on Oct. 1 that, beginning in December, even more Ontarians will have access to important fertility treatments that help people realize their dreams of raising a family. IVF is a complex medical procedure where an egg is retrieved and then fertilized by sperm outside the body, and the resulting
embryo is then transferred to the uterus for implantation. In the announcement, Health Minister Dr. Eric Hoskins said, “Infertility is a serious issue that affects thousands of Ontarians who have dreams of starting their own families. Children are our future and, by creating a more equitable and accessible fertility program, the government is supporting familybuilding for those who couldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to have children.” Through this announcement, the government will fund one full cycle of in vitro fertilization, which would cost thousands of dollars without government support. In addition to covering the costs of one cycle of IVF, the Ministry is expanding access to more Ontarians. Until now, IVF funding assistance was available for women with blocked fallopian tubes.
Mental illness can be terrifying. Far too many people suffer in silence, bearing equal parts of shame and fear. Afraid of being discovered, of not being ‘strong enough’ to overcome their conditions, many will not seek the help they so desperately need.
It is time for us to end the stigma. Mental Illness Awareness Week is dedicated to creating a national discussion on mental health, and we urge all Canadians to take part. Because when we open the lifelines of communication and compassion, the silence is broken. And healing can begin. David and Sharon Johnston
St. John XXIII students run for Terry Fox SCOTT CAMPBELL/METROLAND
St. John XXIII Catholic School students were full of energy at their Terry Fox Run, held Sept. 30. Participants conducted laps around the school grounds for 20 minutes.
For the one in five Ontario school students with asthma, returning to class after the summer vacation was a bit different this year. That’s because Ryan’s Law (Ensuring Asthma Friendly Schools) is now in force, requiring all school boards in the province to develop and maintain consistent policies and procedures to help protect students with asthma. “The Ontario Lung Association has been working in partnership with the Ministry of Education, school boards and Ophea to implement this important legislation and ensure that children with asthma have a safe school environment where they can learn
and play,” explained Carole Madeley, the association’s director of respiratory health programs. For many students, the most noticeable change is that they will now be allowed to carry their reliever inhalers while at school, with the permission of a parent or guardian. Each student must also have an Individual Asthma Management Plan to be kept on file at the school. It will contain details of current medications, asthma triggers and emergency contact information. Parents will be asked to assist in the preparation of the plan and will be responsible for ensuring that the information is kept up-to-date.
The new legislation also requires schools to take action on reducing exposure to common asthma triggers such as dust, scents, pollen, mould, pet allergens and fumes from cleaning products. Schools must also provide for regular training of school staff on recognizing and managing asthma symptoms and attacks. Ryan’s Law is named after Ryan Gibbons, a boy from southwestern Ontario who died in October 2012 after having an asthma attack at school. For more information, visit www.ryanslaw.ca or call the Lung Association Lung Health Information Line at 1888-344-LUNG (5864).

The 260 students and staff at St. John XXIII Catholic School held their own run to honour Terry Fox Sept. 30. Teacher Shannon Rebertz banded everybody together on a windy afternoon on Terry Fox national school run day. They conducted laps around the school grounds for 20 minutes. The nation-wide initiative is said to be one of the largest fundraising events in Canadian history. Terry Fox was known to say that it would be the youth who would carry forth his efforts and work towards a world without cancer.

Shiny new fire engine for Arnprior Volunteer members of the Arnprior Fire Department took receipt of a new pumper truck on Sept. 18. The new pumper built by local fire truck manufacturer Arnprior Fire Trucks will replace the department’s current pumper that went into service for the municipality in 1993. The purchase of the new pump was approved under the town’s capital projects last year with assistance by a fundraising grant from the Arnprior Firefighter Fundraising Association. Training on the new pumper is underway and it is expected to be in service in early October. The old pumper has been bought by Arnprior Fire Trucks and will be used as a loaner apparatus by the manufacturer. The fire department is busy this week promoting fire safety during Fire Prevention Week (Oct. 4-10).

The National Farmers Union (NFU) is worried about the effects the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP), agreed to Monday, will have on the country’s dairy industry, says its Renfrew County president. In a news release prior to the deal being reached, Tony Straathof said in spite of Trade Minister Ed Fast’s denial of media reports he has offered 10 per cent of Canada’s milk supply to the United States during the latest TPP negotiations, the NFU remains “very concerned.” During Canada-EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) negotiations, the federal government made public promises to protect supply management system, while behind closed doors it gave the European Union an additional five per cent of Canada’s high-end cheese market, Straathof said. Canadian dairy farmers, including Renfrew County dairy farmers and processors, will
lose a total of nine per cent of their cheese market to Europe if CETA is ratified, he maintained. The Harper government is “hypocritical” - verbally defending supply management while in reality delivering death by a thousand cuts, charges the NFU. “How much more of this kind of defence can dairy farmers survive,” said Straathof. “Family dairy farms in Canada provide an important economic base for rural communities, like Renfrew County. “If we lose any more of our dairy market, dairy farmers will have to reduce production, and some will have to quit farming,” he added. “Our processing sector will be destabilized, putting those workers out of a job too. Meanwhile, American importers will get the benefit of milk marketing efforts designed and paid for by Canadian dairy producers.” Straathof said that Canada’s supply management system
CELEBRATE THE SEASON @ THE CLUBHOUSE
works for farmers, processors and consumers. Unlike the U.S., Canada does not allow the genetically modified growth hormone rBGH to be used to increase dairy cows’ milk production and Canadian dairy farmers are not subsidized by the taxpayer, he noted. Supply management does not control thes grocery store price of milk - that is determined by the retailers, who can set the price at whatever the market will bear, he said. The farm-gate price paid to New Zealand dairy farmers is one of the lowest in the world, well below the cost of production, yet New Zealand consumers pay some of the highest prices for milk of any country. As a result, New Zealand, Australia and the U.S. are pressuring Canada in these TPP negotiations because they have embraced an export-oriented dairy strategy that has dramatically failed to serve their farmers, Straathof said.

Visitors from the north have arrived Just when it seemed that summer was about to linger until Christmas, autumn arrived with a blast. The cool air thankfully got rid of that unpleasant humidity and it did something else too. That something was to bring a plethora of birds from the northern regions of this country. Many of you have seen and/or heard large flocks of Canada Geese in recent days. Many of the geese came from James and Hudson bays. With plenty of food available in local cornfields, it is likely that a good number of them will remain here for some time. With these northern geese come other species. A week ago I encountered a Snow Goose in a flock of Canada Geese near Smiths Falls. And at this time of year a very small Canada Goose lookalike, the Cackling Goose, sometimes arrives with its much larger cousins, or in a flock of its own species. Recently a large number of these diminutive geese were spotted in the Almonte Sewage Ponds. When geese wing their way south (or north), they characteristically fly in a ‘V’-shaped flock. While it has been speculated that the advantage of this shape is that it cuts the air like an arrow, the truth is
MICHAEL RUNTZ
White-throated Sparrows are currently migrating through our region in large numbers. Migrating Canada Geese save energy by centring their body on the wing of the bird ahead of them.
Michael Runtz Nature’s Way something quite different. Birds defeat gravity through a number of adaptations, including their bones being full of air spaces and extremely light feathers. But once they are off the ground, birds need a force called “lift” to keep them in the air. Their powerful flight muscles move their wings to produce forward thrust but it is lift that keeps airborne. It turns out that that familiar shape of a goose flock winging its way overhead actually produces some lift for most of its members. If you look closely at a ‘V’ of geese, you will see that each bird is flying with its body centred on the tip of the outer wing of the bird ahead of
it. This is not by accident. Air currents are generated by a flying bird’s wing tip and it just so happens that these provide lift. By centring its body on a wingtip ahead of it, a bird gains free lift. And not just a little; studies have shown that as much as 20 per cent extra lift can be gained by this positioning. To see some of the other northern visitors going through our area right now, you need not look up. Large numbers of sparrows, in particular Dark-eyed Juncos (which I like to call: ‘tuxedo birds’) and Whitethroated and White-crowned sparrows have only recently arrived. If you pass through any open area with plenty of weed seeds, you should encounter large flocks of these ground-feeding birds. While Dark-eyed Juncos and White-throated Sparrows (which even on warm days in the fall still whistle their familiar “oh, sweet Canada Canada” songs) have come from their summer homes in the Boreal Forest, White-crowneds have travelled here all the way from the edge of the tree line and beyond. And that was without any free lift from the birds ahead of them! The Nature Number is 613-3872503; email is mruntz@start.ca.

Biologist to discuss pesticides and pollinators Cheryl Morris
MV Naturalists
Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) will host the second presentation of their natural history series on Thursday, Oct. 15. Called ‘Naturally Special Places’, the event will be held in the Almonte United Church at 7:30 p.m. Guest speaker for the evening will be Dr. James Coupland, director of FarmForest Research, a research and development company based out of Almonte that serves the agricultural community across Canada and around the world, including work in developing countries with challenging climates. The presentation is entitled ‘What’s Happening Down In the Pasture? Pesticides and Pollinators’. Coupland graduated from Al-
monte District High School before studying at Queens University. He completed his PhD in Zoology at University of Aberdeen in Scotland. He worked for 10 years as an invasive species biologist with the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) based in southern France. FarmForest Research was established by Coupland in 1991 in Montpellier, France, and combines a broad technical and practical understanding of agriculture, biology, ecology and entomology (the study of insects). The core area of the company’s expertise lies in delivering solutions for invasive species of insects and, as such, it is a leading authority on Integrated Pest Management including the use of biological control systems (biopesticides).
Many naturally special places are being degraded by pollutants, including pesticides. Waterways and water pastures, especially, are increasingly threatened by run-off from towns and farms, with pesticides delivering a ‘knock-out blow’ in some of these areas. In Dr. Coupland’s words, “Our Naturally Special Places are under threat and the inhabitants therein are especially under threat.” His talk will focus on the threats to pollinators living within these ‘special places’. Pollinators are components that are vital to maintaining the integrity of nature’s landscape for future generations. “Pollinators along with many other species worldwide are under threat for many reasons such as loss of habitat, changing weather patterns
and environmental pollutants. In this talk, I will discuss the importance of pollinators to both the ecology of natural habitats and to crop production in Canada. “The recent decline in native pollinators and the potential economic impact due to the reduction of both wild and domesticated bees has been the driving force for research into the causes of their decline,” said Coupland. He will discuss what has been revealed thus far by this research and what else needs to be studied and implemented to reduce and reverse the ‘alarming’ trend. Refreshments and discussion will follow the talk. There is a non-member fee of $5. For further information, contact MVFN’s Program Chair, Gretta Bradley at glbradley@icloud.com.

McIlquham takes over as executive director at the Arnprior Villa OCTOBER SALES EVENT!!!

“Every day is different.” That’s what Janice McIlquham has found being the executive director for the Arnprior Villa since March. She never really planned on working at the Villa for long. Yet, she grew to love being with the retirement community and has become quite familiar with the operation since getting hired in February 2010. “I just fell into this work,” she said. Having a background as a travel agent and the manager of the Curves location in Arnprior for five years, McIlquham has lived in the Valley most of her life. “I married into this community too,” she laughed, having been married to Brad McIlquham for 22 years. Janice was in fact, born in Nova Scotia. The couple lives on the McIlquham homestead in Braeside and has four children. “I was looking for work locally and (came to) the Villa,” said the facility’s new executive director. “I was hired as the receptionist and then became the director of administrative services, to now.” There is enough room for 81 residents to live within retirement community, looked after by 30 staff and

The Arnprior Villa held an open house on Sunday, Sept. 20 from 2 to 4. The open house was a national af-
fair, as the Villa’s parent company, Revera, has 200 retirement communities. The very next day was national Alzheimer’s day and the Villa had a fundraiser takeout spaghetti supper. People were welcome to stay and eat, but they could also take the food to go.

With hunting season getting underway, Ontario is reminding hunters that safety needs to be their first priority. There are a number of ways hunters can keep themselves, and those
around them, safe, says the province in a news release. These include: • telling someone where you will be hunting and when you will be returning; • wearing hunter orange;
• handling firearms with care and attention at all times; • never shooting unless you're sure of your target and what lies beyond; • carrying a survival kit and a small first aid kit with you at all times;
• never drinking alcohol while hunting. The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, in partnership with the OPP, is encouraging all hunters to become familiar with all safety rules and resources that are available to them so that they have a safe hunting season.

Library fundraiser to feature top blues band With two Juno Awards along with numerous other music industry trophies to their credit, Fathead has played the top blues rooms, concert halls and music festivals from coast to coast. The band will be in Arnprior on Saturday, Oct. 24 as the Friends of the Arnprior Public Library present a ‘Blues in the Books’ fundraising concert. Fathead’s sound is steeped heavily in the blues, married with elements of the best roots music, and possesses a unique ensemble sound that is immediately recognizable as their own. The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the library. “We’ll be rolling our moveable shelves to create an amazing performance space within the library,” explains Friends chair Carol Carter. “The acoustics are great, and there will even be a dedicated space for dancing.” The library has hosted a variety of musical performances in the past, from classical and Celtic to blues. “The acoustics are great and

You trained. You fundraised. You offered to lend a hand. You wanted your efforts to have an impact on cancer research at The Ottawa Hospital.
Dan McCarthy, your NDP candidate says:
You did it because you wanted to make a difference, maybe you did it for someone you love.
When women do better, we all do better. But after a decade of Stephen Harper’s Conservatives, Canada still has no strategy on gender-based violence, no inquiry on missing and murdered Indigenous women, and no national childcare program. And Harper has rolled back pay equity with the support of Justin Trudeau and the Liberals.
And then it rained. And rained. And rained.

While you didn’t get to experience the day, we want you to know how grateful we are to you for helping to raise $1.78 million. You did make a difference. You did have an impact.

Hoopsters go 2-0

ADHS posts convincing wins in rugby An explosive back line attack led the ADHS girls’ rugby team to a 400 victory over Bishop Smith in the season opening match Sept. 24 at Dochart Park.
Arnprior was able to shut down the Bishop Smith attack and use their speed and skill on the counter attack. After the official match, both
teams fielded their inexperienced/ younger players for 25 minutes of exhibition play. Arnprior dominated the session with a combination of hustle from the forward pack and
aggressive running from the backs. ADHS followed up their opening game win with another lopsided victory on home turf, beating Fellowes 64-0 on Oct. 1.
Both the senior and the junior Arnprior District High School girls baskeball teams are off to 2-0 starts. The senior girls’ basketball team travelled to Cobden Sept. 29 to play the Opeongo Wildcats. The Arnprior players worked hard and won by a score of 46-26. Mikeala Appleby-Lanoue led all scorers with 13 points and was named ADHS player of the game. Sydney Friske and Logan Kenny each had six points. The girls played with lots of energy defensively and really controlled the tempo of the game causing Opeongo to turn the ball over often, reports coach Phil Moore. The team opened the season with a 61-21 win over Mackenzie in Deep River. The Senior Redmen travelled to Peterborough last weekend for a tournament at Adam Scott Vocational. The junior team, led by Sydney Moore and Olivia McIntyre, defeated Mackenzie 63-2 and Opeongo 47-20.

Top-notch ringette tournament coming to town this weekend Scott Campbell
scottcampbell@metroland.com
“It’s the fastest game on ice,” maintains Kerri Kucharik, the president of the Arnprior-McNab Ringette Association. So Arnprior fans are in for a treat this Thanksgiving weekend. They can check out three games at the Nick Smith Centre this Saturday, Oct. 10 as part of the AAA Ringette Challenge Cup tournament. The U19 all-star
event showcases top players from across Ontario. “We have two local girls who started playing Ringette in Arnprior that have made the AAA teams,” said Kucharik. “Paige Miller is playing on the Eastern Region team and Bobby-Jo Cavanagh is playing for the United Team.” The two girls will face off against each other Saturday at 10 a.m inside the Nick Smith Centre. The other two games are slated for 11:30 a.m. (Northeast
vs. Central) and 1 p.m. (Western vs. Southern) and it is free admission for the day. “Come and cheer our local girls on,” urges Kucharik. The other tournament games are being played in the Walter Baker Centre, Jim Durrell Arena, the Ray Friel centre and the Goulbourn Recreation Centre. Ringette has plenty of similarities to
hockey. It can be played on a standard ice rink. There are five skaters and a goalie on the ice for each team, unless there are penalties, of course. The idea is to score goals on the net of your opponent. The game becomes unique beyond those guidelines. Players use a straight stick - like a shaft of a hockey stick - but with no blade and a tip on the end. Instead of a puck there

is an 8” hollow rubber ring to pass around and used to score. Sam Jacks, Canadian Sports Hall of Fame inductee, is behind the making of Ringette, which has origins back to1963. The very first game was held in Espanola, Ontario, and was organized by Red McCarthy. The game has spread across the world from there.

and offer a fair settlement to creditors. If you are considering a consumer proposal as an option, you may still have questions. Will my employer find out? Will I continue to be harassed by creditors? Will I lose my home? A: The only way to ensure you get the right advice on how to deal with excess debt is to ask a Licensed Trustee in Insolvency and Restructuring. We are licensed professionals and will explain all options available to you and how you can best protect yourself. For example, once a consumer proposal is filed: employment: By law, your employer cannot fire, suspend, or lay you off because you filed a proposal. In fact, unless your wages are being garnished, your Trustee will not have to inform your employer that a proposal has been filed. wage garnishments will be lifted: In the vast majority of cases, wage garnishments will stop once you file a proposal. Your Trustee will advise you further if you are currently being garnished. demands for payment from creditors and/or bill collectors will stop: As soon as creditors know you have filed a proposal (whether they’ve been told by you or your Trustee), they should stop calling you for payment. If a creditor or collector continues to call, advise them to call your Trustee. Tenant rights: Your landlord cannot evict you because you’ve filed a proposal. You can include rents owing from former rental units. You must however continue to make rent payments where you currently reside. Utilities and services: Even if you’re in arrears, fuel, water, electricity, and phone services
cannot be disconnected just because you’ve filed a proposal. Service providers can, however, require a cash deposit from you before supplying services in the future. personal possessions and assets: You must tell your Trustee about all of your personal possessions (vehicles, RRSPs, home, cottage, land, etc.), but they are not dealt with in the same way as they would in a bankruptcy. Generally, if you wish to keep your home, car and major assets, your Trustee will ensure this is reflected in a well-constructed proposal. child and spousal support: Support payments are usually not included in a consumer proposal and you must continue to make them. income tax: If you owe income tax when you file your proposal, the full amount will be included as part of the proposal. You will be responsible for filing and paying all future income taxes in the usual way. Your Trustee will meet with you and provide more in-depth answers to these and other questions you may have. To learn more about the consumer proposal process, visit our web site at www. doylesalewksi.ca. If you are burdened with debt stress, asking for sound advice is a sign of strength and the smart thing to do. Asking sooner rather than later is always better. Call Doyle Salewski today for your free, no obligation consultation. You’ll be glad you did.

Make poverty election issue: Eggleton Sherry Haaima
Sherry.haaima@metroland.com
The commitment and energy exists to come up with a municipal poverty reduction strategy, says Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network co-ordinator Lyn Smith, and local officials took a big step towards that goal with a recent event held in Pembroke. The Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network (CPAN) is an organization dedicated to supporting those youth and improving the situation in Renfrew County. CPAN joined the County of Renfrew and the City of Pembroke to host the Poverty Reduction at the Marguerite Centre in Pembroke Sept. 10. “Our goal is for Renfrew County to move towards the creation of a local poverty reduction strategy specific to our own needs,” said Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon. “For this to happen, we need leadership and community engagement.” The forum brought together community and business leaders, social workers, politicians and others to help identify and co-ordinate efforts taking place in relation to poverty. Forum organizers worked with Provincial Poverty Reduction Strategy Team (PRS), led by Minister Deb Matthews. PRS representatives participated in the forum, as well. “It seems like the commitment and
energy is there to create one of our own,” said Smith. “It’s important to have a municipal poverty reduction strategy, as well as a provincial one, and of course a federal one.” Quality of living would improve, said Smith. “We’d actually be able to have employers look at the area and want to come into the area,” she said. Youth who graduate high school and leave for university could return and find satisfying and gainful employment, she added. There are 19,420 youth (ages 0-17) living in private households in Renfrew County. Of those, 2,590 live in low-income households. In Renfrew, 24.3 per cent of 0-17year-olds live in low-income households and in Arnprior that number is 28.7 per cent. Keynote speaker Senator Art Eggleton is a passionate and dedicated advocate for child poverty. “I come here today as co-founder and steering committee member of the all-party anti-poverty caucus,” said Eggleton. The caucus was formed a couple years ago with a goal to raise awareness on Parliament Hill of poverty-related issues, he said. “Unfortunately, at this point poverty doesn’t register as it should in the halls of Parliament,” said Eggleton. “We just don’t get the traction we should
with these issues.” Personal biases and misconceptions and philosophical and political divisions are factors, he said. You need all levels of government to get on board in efforts to reduce child poverty. Most provincial governments have come up with strategies and there are plenty of local efforts underway, said Eggleton. It’s time the federal government got on board. “We need to keep speaking up and putting the pressure on,” said Eggleton. “Let’s try to develop political will, they want to get re-elected, well this is an issue people care about and they should care about it, too,” said Eggleton. “Let’s force them to care.” The federal election campaign that is underway is a prime example. “The word poverty has been barely mentioned. That’s a real shame, that’s a national shame,” said Eggleton. “Picking up the slack are organizations such as you who are gathered here today.” He urged those assembled to keep up the good work. “I encourage you to use this meeting as a springboard for greater and more co-ordinated efforts,” said Eggleton. Living in poverty means tough questions that create a lot of stress in people’s lives, he said. Whether to pay rent, bills or eat, how to eat healthy on a tight budget. “There are still one in seven Cana-

Renfrew County Poverty Reduction Forum keynote speaker Senator Art Eggleton, second from right, is joined by, from left, Greg Lubimiv of the Phoenix Centre for Children and Families, Lyn Smith of the Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network, and MPP Chris Ballard, parliamentary assistant to Ontario Minister Deb Matthews. dians living in poverty,” said Eggleton. “That’s $4.8 million people, that’s an enormous population in a country as rich as Canada.” In 2014, almost a million Canadians used food banks and over a third of that food was going to children. “That’s still one in seven children going to school hungry. And it’s hard to learn on an empty stomach.” And numbers are one thing but think of the true victims. “Behind every statistic is a real person,” said Eggleton. “Make no mistake, poverty has not been defeated or diminished. Instead it has a strong
stranglehold on many Canadian families.” In particular, aboriginals, visible minorities, single mothers and the disabled are at risk. Income and wealth inequality is another burgeoning issue, said the senator. Studies show low income is also linked to poor health. He applauded the provinces and cities that have poverty reduction strategies. “Come together and make it happen. Find some champions,” said Eggleton. “Engage as much of the community as possible.”

Valley girl Julie Corrigan to release debut album INSIDE Scott Campbell
scottcampbell@metroland.com
Julie Corrigan grew up within a musical family. She has roots in Shawville, but now is based in Ottawa. This month will be the finale of a journey that has lasted over two years – she will release her first album titled ‘The Language’. Corrigan is set to celebrate in style with a party on Friday, Oct. 16 at the National Arts Centre’s Fourth Stage. She will be accompanied by a full band. “We started the recording process in early 2013 and took about a year on and off the whole record,” said Corrigan. “I had been putting it off for a while (because I) never had enough money or could never decide on where the best place was to record it.” The final result was

recorded and produced by Dave Draves in Ottawa at Little Bullhom Studios. It wasn’t until a talk with Corrigan’s father, Doug, that she took the recording jump all the way. “I had an inspiring chat with my dad one afternoon and he basically told me to go for it,” she said. “Do it for the love of it and don’t worry about what will happened career wise. That idea has saw me through this whole process. I’m doing this because it’s what I love to do.” All of the songs are written from Corrigan’s personal experience or people she has met along the way. “I hope that people can relate to the songs and find a connection with them as much as I did writing them.” Corrigan picked up the guitar at a young age

Fitzroy historical society to celebrate 30 years at annual dinner dents of Fitzroy township gathered to form the township historical society. Fitzroy Township was being absorbed into the larger Municipality of West Carleton and descendants of the oldest pioneer families were afraid that the township’s remarkable history would be lost to general knowledge. The names of the first members of the society read like a who’s-who of township history. The historical society performs a steady stream of activities related to the story of Fitzroy Township. The directors meet monthly to plan for recurring events like the annual dinner.
They also undertake special projects from time-to-time. In the past they have restored several pioneer cemeteries in the township. In memory of veterans in the wars of the 20th century, they have erected plaques to honour their service. The Fitzroy Township Historical Society has published several books: first in 1989 a general history of Fitzroy called ‘Beyond our Memories: a History of Fitzroy Township,’ followed in 2001 by ‘Our Heritage Homes.’ One of the most successful books has been the history of the Kingdon Mine, ‘Above and Below: a

Drama ensues over drawing that vanishes into ‘thin air’ Emerson was raging mad. He was thumping around the kitchen, arms waving, and his face was the colour of his flaming red hair. “It was right there, I tell ya,” he said, stabbing his finger on top of a pile of notepaper. “I accidentally folded down a corner of the sheet, and I put it into this stack of papers to smooth it out, and I haven’t touched it since. Someone has deliberately taken it out of there, and it sure wasn’t me.” It had darkened enough that night in late September that Mother had lit the coal oil lamps and one sat at either end of the old pine table. With the exception of Father, who as usual was sitting in front of the Findlay Oval in his rocking chair with his feet up on the oven door, we five children were occupied with our favourite pastimes. Mother was working on her scrap books, Everett was making a new sling shot, Earl was carving some animal from a piece of smooth wood he had found, and Audrey was attempting to teach me once again how to make French knots on the end of a flour bag tea towel. Emerson had been working on yet another one of his crazy drawings of a building with glass walls and an elevator going up the outside. He had drawn and erased the one sheet, and he claimed he had accidentally turned down the
top right corner. To straighten it out he had tucked into the big pile of sheets already full of his crazy ideas of how his buildings were going to look when he became famous. And now the sheet was gone. Into thin air. And he knew for a fact that one of us sitting around the table had taken it out of the pile for spite. “And it was my best drawing yet,” he roared. “I even had glass doors on the building. This was going to be a building like no one has ever seen before, and someone in this very room has taken it right out of this pile of papers.” And he closed his fist and banged it down on the pile of sheets before him. Paid him no heed
Nobody paid him any heed. Emerson was always ranting about something, and it often had to do with his crazy drawings put to the paper tablets Mother bought for him on the one-cent sale at the Rexall Drug Store in Renfrew. “Hours of work I put into that drawing,” he said. It was amazing to me how no one paid him any heed. Father never took his eyes off the Ottawa
Farm Journal, Mother continued to cut pieces out of the Philadelphia Enquirer and paste them into her scrapbook, and Everett and Earl kept right on doing what they were doing. MARY COOK Finally, Mother suggested he start at the top of the pile of papers and work his way to the bottom, just in case that particular sheet somehow got tucked into the stack. Emerson said he had done that and the drawing was gone. “Gone, I tell you! Gone! And when I find out who took it out of this pile (and he pounded the stack again for good measure) he’ll pay dearly.” The evening was wearing on, and my fingers were stiff from holding the needle and the embroidery cotton trying desperately to master the French knot, which as far as I was concerned was a lost cause. I knew I would never be as clever as my sister Audrey, and trying to teach me the fine art of embroidery was a complete waste of her time. I forced a yawn and asked my sister if we could put the embroidery away, and maybe take a look through the brand new Eaton’s catalogue, which had just come. It was sitting on the top of the ice box, and
Mary Cook’s Memories
Breakfast N’ Learn The monthl Breakfast N’ Learn hosted by Arnprior-BraesideMcNab Seniors at Home with sponsorship from Tierney & Stauffer was held Sept. 30 at Galilee Centre. The presentation was by Sonya Schirmacher, left, a Registered Holistic Nutritionist. Her topic was ‘Secrets to improve memory, energy and vitality’. She is seen at right with guest Barb Mills, a winner of one of the five draws sponsored by Schirmacher. Next Breakfast N’ Learn will be held Wednesday, Oct. 28 with guest speaker Captain Sandy, story teller and entertainer, formerly of Captain Sandy’s Cruises and CFRA. Limited seating, so register by Oct. 27 at 613-6237981.
this time of year I spent many a happy hour going through the thick catalogue working my way from the corsets in the front, right through to the cream separators in the back. Audrey brought it to the table, put it in front of me, and told me to start wherever I wanted. I decided to flip to the Christmas section ... toys ... candies ... girl’s pretty clothes. Well! What I found, smack in the middle of the catalogue was Emerson’s missing drawing. There it was, as large as life. Emerson saw it at the same time. He slapped his forehead, his face turned even redder if that was possible. And in a voice barely heard, admitted to putting it in the middle of the Eaton’s catalogue to straighten out the page that had a corner fold. Gentle Earl demanded an apology, Everett put a wad of paper wet with spit in his new sling shot and hit Emerson dead on, Father said a swear word in German, Audrey rolled her eyes, and Mother closed her scrapbook, let out a long sigh, and ordered us all to bed. Another exciting night at Northcote had come to an end. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Fall yard sale raises record funds for Seniors at Home Liz Wall
Seniors at Home
Together, the organizers from Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors At Home send out a massive thank you to one and all who contributed to the ‘Great McGonigal Street Fall Yard Sale’ held Sept. 26 in Arnprior. On all counts the day was ‘massive’, with Mother Nature shining down on us and all the shoppers who dropped by, not just to ABMSH’s yard sale, but to the other three homes who joined in from McGonigal Street. Thank you to our neighbours Sylvia Lord, Roger Renaud and Bridget McMahon and families for participating in McGonigal Street Fall Yard Sale. Final count for the day, $1,500. Without the support of the community this amount would have not been possible, as our yard sales are totally supported by donated items. Thank you to everyone who took the time to drop off, or arranged for
Michael Steeves, who dropped by to shop and ended up staying to the very end volunteering his time wherever it was needed. Also, thank you to the ladies who dropped off baked goodies for all to enjoy. You are the best! Thank you to those businesses who assisted in the planning stages and needs of the Yard Sale committee: staff of the Nick Smith Centre, Chronicle-Guide, Valley Heritage Liz Wall/SUBMITTED Radio, MyFM and Jenn Spratt of the The Great McGonigal Fall Yard Sale was held Sept. 26 with great weath- Galetta Recreation Association (reer and plenty of shoppers to raise a record $1,500 for Arnprior-Brae- cipients of the unsold items for the association’s yard sale in October) side-McNab Seniors At Home. pick-up of items to be sold. It was very much appreciated. Thank you to a great group of volunteers and staff, some who assisted this Fall and do so every yard sale. Whether the help was for setting up, the barbecue, baking, cashiers, personal shoppers or tear-down, these folks are the best volunteers an organizer could ask for. Thank you Ian Black, Tanya

Masters as Muse Renowned Burnstown artist Richard Gill opens his latest exhibit at the Bittersweet Gallery on Oct. 3. Called The Masters as Muse: from Rembrandt to Rodin, the theme is sculpted clay reliefs of many famous European artists. Gill said he was pleased with the turnout, which saw at least a dozen admirers on hand during midafternoon. The show runs until Monday, Oct. 12.
Photos by Derek Dunn/Metroland
A couple of Rodin’s most famous sculptures figure prominently in this relief. The clay works seem to offer a view into the private worlds of some of the west’s most influential artists. Other reliefs focus on Monet, Toulouse-Lautrec, Degas, Matisse, Renoir, Cezanne and many more.
Crown and Pumpkin celebrates local artists MAKE YOUR MAKE YOURCOUNT VOTE COUNT VOTE kkent@metroland.com
If you needed an excuse to drive through Mississippi Mills to see the autumn leaves, the Crown and Pumpkin Studio Tour is being held this weekend. Over the Thanksgiving long weekend from Oct. 10 to 12, 14 local art studios will open their doors to the public for the tour. Spread throughout Almonte, Pakenham and Clayton, the 19th annual tour takes participants across the municipality. “It’s such a beautiful tour,” said Laurel Cook, a representative with the event. “It’s a beautiful drive with beautiful destinations.” The self-guided tour included studios in multiple facets of art, from textiles
and jewelry to glasswork and pottery. “We have a whole selection of anything you’re really looking for,” Cook said. Participants can follow their maps to visit any number of the 14 studios in a single day, or choose to spread their visits out over three days. “That’s the beauty of it,” Cook said. “It’s up to you where you go, when you go and what you see.” Kaija Savinainen-Mountain, senior art teacher at Venta Preparatory School in Carp, is stop nine on the tour. The painter of Willow Creek Studio is an award winning artist, who features horses and wildlife in much of her work. Hard copies of Crown and Pumpkin Studio Tour maps can be picked up at various shops in the Al-
monte and Clayton areas, but a virtual map can also be found and downloaded from their website (www. crownandpumpkin.com). This year’s map features several historic sites and places of interest for participants to visit along with the studios. The Crown and Pumpkin Studio Tour was started almost 20 years ago as a way to support local artists in Ramsay Township before the amalga-
mation of Mississippi Mills. Now, it’s expanded to include a multitude of artists from across the municipality. “There is such a huge populationMAKE YOUR VOTE COUNT of artists here,” Cook said. “We want to celebrate all things that are created here, grown here and crafted here.” For more information on the tour and to view a complete list of participating studios, visit www.crownandA VOTE FOR THE OTHERS = A VOTE FOR CHERYL GALLANT pumpkin.com.

This is because alcohol can be found in surprising number of places such as rum-soaked fruitcakes or unbaked dough containing yeast can result in alcohol poisoning, other life-threatening problems and death. 8.

If your dog gets into it, he may think he’s hit the jackpot, but all he’ll be winning is health problems from something as simple as gastric disturbance, vomiting and diarrhea to the worst-case scenario - death. 12. Quiet Time: For those of you that would like some piece and quite at the table, kennel your cat or dog in an area of the home that is well lit and away from the excitement. Give them something to chew on or play with and leave a television or radio on. This will help distract them. Have a great Thanksgiving and don’t forget to leave room for dessert!

Turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes and don’t forget the pumpkin pie. They are just some of the favourites we all look forward to on Thanksgiving with family and friends. But what about our pets! Here are 12 safety tips to help keep your pets safe on Thanksgiving: 1. Begging at the Table: It would be best if you gave them there Thanksgiving treat in a bowl away from the table to avoid begging. Your guests would probably appreciate that to. 2. Fatty Foods: Too many fatty, rich, or unfamiliar foods can give your pet pancreatitis or gastroenteritis; two medical conditions that can be very painful and even life-threatening. 3. Diet and Exercise: Maintain your pet’s regular meal and exercise schedule and avoid too many holiday leftovers. A disruption in his dietary routine can cause stomach upset, diarrhea and/or vomiting.

Pat Trew: community pillar and recipe guru remembered Jennifer Westendorp
jwestendorp@perfprint.ca
Pat Trew was her own person. She lived life to the beat of her own tune; in an unassuming and complacent manner – all the while getting the job done, without complaints or hesitation. “She knew what she wanted in life,” said Jeff Trew, her husband of 47 years. “She just went ahead and did things in life. She never shied away from hard work. She was very focused in that respect.” Jeff and Pat, who grew up in Smiths Falls, met at Carleton University, where she was living in the women’s dorm and he the men’s. Their first meeting occurred during negotiations for the distribution of laundry funds between their respective associations, of which they both acted as treasurer. “There was just something about her,” said Jeff. “The Commerce Club used to go out drinking and I remember going out and not enjoying
it too much. I returned home and went for a walk. Pat was out walking too and we coincidently ran into each other. It was a foggy night and she appeared out of the fog. I just knew something was right.” She was studying journalism at the time, followed by an MA in history. They married in 1968. “She started working for the federal government in 1969, in a junior position,” said Jeff. “She gradually rose through the ranks. She worked with the Canada Revenue Agency, where she was a director for a number of years, working closely with the Minister’s office.” They lived in Ottawa for five years, before buying a parcel of land in Montague in 1975 and building their forever home. He said Pat was an animal lover and the type of person geared towards giving back. Over the years, she wore many hats - past president of the Lanark County Community Living Association, the first woman councillor of

She was also a
small business owner in Merrickville – of Larkspur Line and ‘Harmony,’ a women’s clothing store – and author, publishing two successful cookbooks and a food column for the EMC (now Metroland Media). “For all the time I knew her, there was never a harsh word,” said Jeff. “She was a very gentle person.” He said she enjoyed being a councillor – conducting herself always in a way that promoted feminism, without ever setting out to do so. “She was very thorough and good at assessing situations and finding solutions,” said Jeff. “She treated people fairly.” Pat left the federal government after suffering a concussion while riding a horse. She began working full-time at the business she started with Jeff, selling model railroad products, and also grew more active in the community.

People could identify with her.” Three years ago, in June 2012, Pat and Jeff were given the devastating news that she had stage four lung cancer. “She was given about eight weeks to live,” said Jeff. “It was a very difficult time for us. Pat has always been a very positive person. She just looked at it as another project. The whole time she was sick, I never heard her complain. It was remarkable.” Heather Wilson served on the Merrickville & District Community Health Centre board with Pat for years. “She played an incredibly important role in that position,” said Wilson. “She was very competent. It was very reassuring having Pat there to discuss things with.” Pat had a strong, rational side and a creative, nurturing side, she explained. The way Pat supported her community was truly incredible, she noted.
spected for their simplicity of ingredients and personal touch, through a food column she penned for roughly 30 years. “She did that up until she got sick, about three years ago,” said Jeff, who has meticulously organized records of all her recipes at home. “When I first met Pat, she could boil water and make fudge; that was it. Once she got into cooking, she began experimenting.” After the first six months of writing her column, The EMC was taken over by Metroland Media and Trew’s column was removed. “There was a public outcry for people who loved her recipes,” said Jeff. “They called her up and asked her if she would start writing her column again.” In 1984, she put together her first cookbook, titled ‘Doesn’t have to be Gourmet to be Good,’ which sold 22,000 copies. Volume two, which was published two years later, sold 18,000. “What people liked about her cookbooks was she put

Working women: finding new paths a normal reaction when entrenched attitudes are overturned. It is not so long ago that medicine and engineering were all-male preserves, where the “invasion” of women was derided. In their own ways and in their own eras, women such as Elizabeth Blackwell, Irma Levasseur, and Lucille Teasdale defied prejudice to practice medicine in more than just subordinate roles. These days, the healthcare system couldn’t do without women. Any progress is a step forward for women and enriches those sectors which welcome these intrepid heroines. And the traditionally female-

dominated sectors are still well populated by women who want to make use of their desire to care for, educate, and help others. Changing the rules of the game was certainly overdue. There is no good reason why more women shouldn’t migrate towards mechanics, carpentry, forestry, military service, or road transportation. Every trade has its value, and everyone has their own likes and dislikes. It’s perfectly legitimate to want your livelihood to be a source of accomplishment, pride, and personal satisfaction.

Flexible working conditions are one way to put an end to job discrimination.
Choosing a profession is, first and foremost, an expression of one’s personality. This choice should be made according to personal tastes and aptitudes; why blindly follow the beaten path if something else appeals to you? After all, you’ll spend a large part of your life in the workforce, so you’re much better off if you can live out your passions in your work. One way to put an end to job discrimination is to provide women with a range of career choices that allow for flexible working conditions and a way to reintegrate after having children. Making such changes may seem threatening, but that’s

Generally speaking, women who start a business are driven by the desire to take on challenges and be fully autonomous in the decision-making process. However, the stresses of balancing work and family can be difficult to manage and may discourage some women from taking the plunge. Did you know that many women earn lucrative incomes through Internet companies they’ve created? Here are five reasons why starting your own business on the Web is

Flexible work hours improve family life stress and less family/work conflict,” says Alison Konrad, a professor of organizational behaviour at The Ivey Business School, who co-authored the study. “We also found flexible workers to be as equally productive as their in-office counterparts and far less likely to leave the company.” Thanks to new collaboration technologies and the proliferation of smartphones and tablets in the workplace, many employees now have the ability to work from anywhere at any time. However, in order to capitalize on the benefits of transitioning to a flexible work environment, businesses will need more than technology; leaders must be fully
committed and adapt their leadership styles. “There needs to be a strong culture of trust between leaders and their employees, and in some cases management styles need to be reshaped,” Konrad explains. “We found that Telus leaders focus less on face time in the office and more on the quality and consistency of deliverables.” The study’s findings arrive as great news for both Canadian employers and employees, as the country’s mobile worker population is set to increase to 73 per cent of the workforce, or roughly 13.3 million mobile workers, by 2016 according to the research firm IDC Canada.

Women with business in their blood Celebrating women in business is important. Who are the women running companies and small enterprises? What drives them and makes them successful? Some women seem to have it in their blood; it is as though they were born to be businesspeople. Generally, these women are go-getters. They are driven and they love taking charge. Without trying to stubbornly impose their point of view, they enjoy the art of persuasive argument and getting others to share in their vision of the world. These women are driven by their self-confidence and their belief in their skills. Women who choose to go into business ap-

Business women often choose to go out on their own because of their frustrations with the limitations of the business world or typical work environments. Secondly, time management is another com mon motivation. Managing your own schedule allows you to invest your energy in the right places and at the right times. Being financially independent also fuels women to create their own businesses. Being business owners means being able to reap every dollar generated by

Businesswomen carve themselves an important niche
Women go into business to satisfy their need for fulfillment, to put their skills and abilities into practice, to be financially independent, and to engage in stimulating changes, which gives them control over their destiny.
It is time to celebrate women in business. Many generations of women have worked very hard to assume a place that reflects their skills, their abilities, and their knowledge. Canadian women were not even considered “persons” in the legal sense before 1929. Today, over 60 per cent of women earn an income, and 80 per cent of women decide on the purchase of products and services, for themselves and their families. These women represent a major economic power whose impact is felt

Women are also innovative in their business development decisions, as they create a new prosperity within a new generation of businesswomen concerned about exploiting feminine values, such as empathy, balance, and harmony. Generally, women go into business to satisfy their need for fulfillment, to

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue
Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, it may be challenging to express your true feelings, especially when you fear what others may think. Just do what feels comfortable to you. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Take a sentimental journey with a loved one, Taurus. You never know what examining your emotions will uncover, and you will get to spend quality time together. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, you can strike up a conversation with just about anyone this week. Your gift for gab makes you a fun person to have around and a welcome member to any new group. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, someone may catch you off guard this week and you don’t have your go-to plan in place. Worry not, as you will rebound quickly and bounce back in a big way. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, it may seem like everyone is hanging on every word you say this week. Don’t worry about performing, just continue to do what gravitates people toward you. VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, although you’re not a big fan of the spotlight, this week you will be asked to handle a situation on center stage. You just may enjoy the situation, so don’t fret about it.
LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, share your long-term goals with colleagues and you may find some unexpected allies. Support can only help your efforts even further. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, set personal feelings aside when dealing with professional matters. Allowing emotion to get in the way of your goals will only end up affecting you. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, this is a great time to try something new. Whether it’s a new food or a new experience you’ve been looking to try, dive right in and enjoy the excitement. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, expect to be excited by a budding relationship in the weeks ahead. Open up to friends or family members so you can share this positive development with loved ones. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Waiting patiently this week will not get the job done, Aquarius. You may have to be more assertive to get things done. Others will understand and prove helpful. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, a problem at work seems tough to crack. Take your time and try a new approach, and you will be happy with the results. 1008
