Digital mammography machine keeps care closer to home Sherry Haaima sherry.haaima@metroland.com

EMC news - Arnprior Regional Health’s digital mammography machine is up and running following an impressive campaign that kicked off this spring. “We are really pleased to announce we actually exceeded our goal of $400,000,” said campaign chairwoman Kimberley O’Shaugnessy. The campaign, with a solid if inexperienced committee behind it, actually raised $425,000 when all was said and done. “Their tenacity and their dedication is why we exceeded our goal,” said O’Shaugnessy. She joined Partners in Caring chair Ted Kelly and CAO Eric Hanna in expressing gratitude to sponsors, businesses, service clubs, individuals and others who supported the campaign in a variety of ways. “There has been overwhelming support for this campaign from local businesses and members of the community,” said O’Shaugnessy. “From the 11year-old girl who had a garage sale to support the campaign from the service clubs who asked us to come into their meetings and explain the campaign and

also to the local businesses who know the importance of keeping care close to home.” The extra funds, she explained, were used for renovations and other updates required to house the new machine. Hospital officials, staff, foundation members and others gathered in the diagnostic imaging department on Thursday, Oct. 11 for a celebration and demonstration of the new $400,000 piece of equipment. Hanna praised O’Shaugnessy for her work on the campaign. “You’ve done a tremendous job in motivating everybody for us,” he said. Among those he thanked for their support was the hospital auxiliary, a group that gave $100,000 to the campaign. Mammography technologist Sharon Murphy said the machine is a very welcome addition to the department and means women don’t have to travel to Ottawa or Renfrew for testing. “You can read it so much easier,” said Murphy. “It looks so much better, it’s a lot more advanced. There’s also less radiation.” Murphy said she was often sending especially younger women with more dense breasts out of town for mammographies.

EMC news – Dalton McGuinty’s revelation that he will step down as premier didn’t come as a surprise to two area opposition MPPs. But it is the prorogation of the legislature that has them most upset. Both Jack MacLaren and John Yakabuski figured the resignation was coming soon; largely, they say, because scandals such as eHealth, the Ontario Lottery, Presto cards, and Ornge were

growing insurmountable. And yet none was made to stick to whom many called The Teflon Premier. “They’ve never gotten nailed to the cross on these sorts of things,” said MacLaren, MPP for Carleton-Mississippi Mills. However, it is the latest controversy, involving the Ontario Power Authority (OPA), which MacLaren and the MPP for Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke say led to the prorogation. “That’s a travesty,” MacLaren said. “I call that a crime.” The OPA issue saw accusations

that the government interfered with contracts related to the creation of gas plants in Oakville and Mississauga. The Progressive Conservatives say it was done to save seats during the last election. Now taxpayers are on the hook to the tune of $650 million to cancel the contracts. Both opposition parties have tried to find out what role Energy Minister Chris Bentley played in the fiasco. They say by not providing information to the speaker of the house, contempt charges – with a maximum penalty of

a criminal conviction – could be levelled against Bentley. Some 36,000 heavily-redacted documents were provided; another 20,000 were handed over Oct. 12 after the Liberals spotted an apparent oversight. “This was an orchestrated attempt to deny the people information,” Yakabuski said. “The prorogation of the house is the real tragedy here. This is about telling the public the truth around these power plants.” See NO WORK Page 3

Premier Dalton McGuinty announces resignation laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - In a surprise move after nine years as premier of Ontario, on Oct. 15 Ottawa South MPP Dalton McGuinty announced he is stepping down as premier. The 57-year-old was the first provincial premier who called Ottawa home. “That was historic for our community to have a premier,” said Ottawa West-Nepean MPP Bob Chiarelli, a close colleague of McGuinty’s. McGuinty asked party president Yasir Naqvi, MPP for Ottawa Centre, to convene a leadership convention at the earliest opportunity. McGuinty said he will remain leader and premier until a new Liberal leader is found and he will remain as the MPP for Ottawa South until the next election – a role he has held for 22 years. Chiarelli said there was a general sense that this term would be a “transitional time” for McGuinty, but the news he was stepping down was a surprise and came sooner than expected. “As the party and government of relentless progress, we’re always looking for new ideas and ways to renew ourselves,” McGuinty’s speech read. “And I’ve concluded that this is the right time for Ontario’s next Liberal premier and our next set of ideas to guide our province forward.” Having a local MPP leading the provincial government for nine years has “paid off big time” for Ottawa, Chiarelli said.

Premier Dalton McGuinty surprised many by announcing Monday night he intends to resign When McGuinty became the provincial Liberal Party’s leader 16 years ago, the Ontario Liberals had won just one election in 50 years. “We were in the wilderness, and he brought us back. He brought us back in style and I think with tremendous credibility,” Chiarelli said. “He delivered big time to this community.” Herongate resident Perry Marleau wasn’t convinced that McGuinty’s time as leader was very beneficial for the area. Marleau, a self-indentified Conservative and former municipal council candidate in 2006 and 2010, says “simple favouritism” has helped propel McGuinty at the provincial level, but without that local support, he would have

a difficult time making a federal Liberal leadership bid, as some pundits have suggested. “Dalton is really well liked in Ottawa South,” Marleau said. “He’s a homegrown boy … no one ever says anything bad about him.” John Redins, another Ottawa South resident who ran against McGuinty for the Party for People With Special Needs in the last election, said he was shocked at the resignation but figures political life wore the premier out. McGuinty is likely to back down from representing Ottawa South in the next election, but Redins said he wouldn’t be surprised to see a third generation of McGuintys vie for the seat (the premier’s father, Dalton McGuinty, Sr., represented the riding before his son). As a high-profile minister of transportation and infrastructure and a former Ottawa mayor, Chiarelli didn’t rule out a run at the leader’s seat. “I’ve always said throughout my whole political career, ‘You never say never,’” Chiarelli said. “Today is a time to bear down and continue to deliver good government and to show some respect for the legacy of Premier Dalton McGuinty, which is very significant … I will turn my mind to my political future in the foreseeable future.” Other Ottawa-area politicians with Liberal affiliations weren’t available for comment at press time.

The evening announcement came amid opposition accusations that McGuinty misled the legislature over power plant cancellations that will cost taxpayers upwards of $230 million and pressure from teachers’ unions over his efforts to freeze their wages and take away their ability to strike. But McGuinty cited party “renewal” and the opposition’s blocking of a publicsector wage freeze bill as his reasons for stepping aside. “It has nothing to do with that, and everything to do with a decision that Terri and I have made,” McGuinty told report-

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson, who served as a provincial cabinet minister under McGuinty, said the premier never forgot his Ottawa roots when he went to Queen’s Park and as a result, the city has benefitted from hundreds of projects that would not have happened without his support, including hospitals, schools and infrastructure projects.

RESIGNATION

ized the suspension of collective bargaining is somehow illegal, he needed prorogation as an escape hatch; that is something MacLaren calls a side issue. “The freeze doesn’t happen,” he said. “All the measures that needed to be taken won’t get done now because of the proroguing.” Long-time former Liberal MPP Sean Conway appeared on TVO’s The Agenda with Steve Paikin moments after McGuinty’s Oct. 15 announcement. He said the party leader was “leaving with some unfinished business” and “pesky issues,” but that the prorogation gave all parties time to cool down. He added that family matters play a role in a leader’s decision to step down, but that there is never a best time to leave politics. “He said that he needed time to reconnect to his family,” Conway said on The Agenda. “There is no easy and good way to leave.” MacLaren doesn’t have much sympathy with that perspective. He said all MPPs have family commitments, but that the people of Ontario expect work to get done.

The prorogation means no work will be done until a new Liberal leader and premier is selected, likely not for another three to six months. At that time the new leader could suspend the legislature and call an election. That puts an end to the committee investigating the issue. If the Liberals win a majority, they will likely bury it by not reconstituting the committee, Yakabuski explained. If the PCs or NDP win a majority, they can look into the matter to see how much money was lost, but that the primary players will have already been tossed. “It’s absolutely a point of principle, and democracy,” Yakabuski said. MacLaren is livid that a year of minority government has produced little in the way of substance, and that the next few months could see even less. Neither he nor Yakabuski put much weight on the issue of public sector pay freezes. They lament that spending cuts won’t go ahead; the legislation failed to pass before the prorogation. But the idea that, if McGuinty real-

McGuinty also asked Lt.Gov. David Onley to prorogue the legislature “to allow those discussions with our labour partners and the opposition to occur in an atmosphere that is free of the heightened rancour of politics in the legislature.” Progressive Conservative leader Tim Hudak expressed his thanks to McGuinty for his service to Ontario. But he criticized McGuinty’s decision to ask for the legislature to be suspended, saying it prevents “critical work” that needs to be done to address job creation and the province’s debt. -With files from Metro News

EMC news – Major changes continue to rumble through town hall, causing significant departmental restructuring that has found three more employees out of work. Let go is public works director Janet Collins, town clerk Jacquie Farrow-Lawrence, and the finance department’s Teri Mosley. The decision was made at an in-camera meeting on Oct. 9. Others have also been let go in the recent past. The personnel changes began a year ago when former chief administrative officer (CAO) Larry Donaldson was dismissed from the bureaucracy’s top position. Then former treasurer David Pollard announced his intention to retire. He has since been replaced by Jennifer Morawiec, and Donaldson by Michael Wildman. Mayor David Reid’s first foray into politics was when he won the town’s top seat in the 2010 elections. He ran on a promise to improve communication and professionalism at town hall, particularly when it came to dealing with developers. He said the most recent round of changes wasn’t done to save money, but to focus strengths on key areas. “It’s revenue neutral,” Reid said. “But it does address some significant deficiencies.” The town also intends to solicit a new human resources director, with a job posting likely to appear within a week. Reid admits that corporate memory is running low at town hall, but mentioned Maureen Spratt moving up to clerk from deputy clerk and parks and recreation director Glenn Arthur as two staffers with much experience. (Spratt’s time at town hall greatly exceeds Farrow-Lawrence’s.) Coun. Ted Strike was public works director for a couple of decades; he is expected to make up some of the shortfall with Collins’ departure. He added that Wildman has a lot of experi-

ence, particularly as it relates to growth and development. And Pollard has agreed to a retainer. Still, there is a risk over the next number of months. “That is a gap,” Reid said. “It is an issue we talked about extensively.” Neither Reid nor Wildman would reveal severance package details, citing the employees’ right to privacy. “Each person was treated fairly with regards to the specifics of their contract,” Wildman said. When discussing organizational changes, Reid spoke to “shifting responsibilities” to “better cover needs.” At the top of the list was economic development, which emerged from the strategic planning exercise, along with contributions from Queen’s University advisors, council, and the public. Hence the creation of a new community development branch. It will employ the town planner, chief building official, and a new position know as the “marketing and economic development officer.” All will report directly to Wildman. The new position will be funded from the existing budget, thus not directly result in a tax increase next year. He holds big expectations for the branch, according to a recent press release. “The branch will drive the town’s growth, economic development and marketing strategies,” it reads. Another change has resulted in a new department called corporate services. Finance, human resources, clerk’s services, and other administrative functions will fall under this umbrella. Led by Morawiec, who will be the town’s director of corporate services/treasurer, the department is expected to result in “several efficiencies.” The press release went on to say the strategic plan will be finalized and establish the town’s vision, priorities and goals for the short and long term.

OPINION

Your Community Newspaper

Month of October is a busy time for beavers EMC lifestyle - Although it might lack the frenzied energy of spring, autumn does exhibit a strong sense of direction. Leaves drop down from the trees as if raindrops falling from a cloud. Overhead flocks of geese and blackbirds noisily wing their way south. And as the days shorten and the temperature drops, Beavers become increasingly active. Currently, Beavers are busily occupied performing two main tasks. One is preparing their lodge for the cold temperatures soon to come. The other is creating a store of food that will carry them through the winter. Contrary to popular misconception, Beavers do not hibernate. In winter they do sleep more than half of each day away but they also eat, groom their fur, and get rid of body wastes. Most of their time is spent inside their lodge, which is usually a dome-shaped structure surrounded by water. A lodge is made almost entirely of mud and sticks. Currently Beavers have begun to thicken the walls of their lodge by adding more material. Much of this activity takes place at night but as fall progresses, Beavers will continue their work through the day, especially if the day is overcast. Mud is dredged up from the bottom of the pond while sticks are either cut from trees near the shore or are the inedible leftovers from a meal. Speckled Alder, a shrub that grows commonly along wet shorelines, is often used as building material. When a Beaver adds a stick to its lodge, it usually drags it on top, clenching it in its teeth while holding a pile of mud against its chest. Both items are dropped and worked into place. As the walls thicken, their ability to keep out winter’s chill and retain the heat generated by the Beavers inside the lodge increases. Most visible parts of the lodge receive additional material through the fall. How-

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way ever, the very top does not, for it must be allow air to circulate into the lodge all winter, otherwise the occupants, which can number as many as ten, would die from

asphyxiation. Beavers are also busy creating a winter cache of food. This consists of branches piled two to three metres high somewhere near the lodge. The food pile must be accessible under the pond’s frozen surface so it extends to the bottom of the pond. To enable this, Beavers add a lot of extra branches to the pile’s top. Many of these are poor quality foods, such as spruce, fir, or Speckled Alder branches. They also add branches from which they have previously eaten the bark. As the top of the pile gets locked in

ice, it makes sense that inedible items are placed here. The lower part of the food pile contains the most nutritious items. Poplar, Red Maple, and willow branches are usually present. Right now Beavers are busy harvesting these items, dragging cut limbs to their ponds down well-used trails. If you know the phrase: “busy as a Beaver,” now is the time to see how these endearing rodents have earned that reputation! The Nature Number is 613387-2503; email is mruntz@ start.ca

Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey to be feast for starved fans

ockey starved fans will soon be treated to a feast, when Ottawa plays host to the 2013 IIHF Ice Hockey Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Championship next April. The games will take place at the Nepean Sportsplex and Scotiabank Place from April 2 to 9, with the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top 10 teams competing for the world championship. The tournament comes as welcome news to a city struggling with the loss of

revenue from the National Hockey League lockout. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no telling how long the lockout will last â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it could range anywhere from a month to an entire season. Fans have been placed once again in the middle of a dispute between owners and players over revenue sharing, a conflict that has left casualties among hotels, restaurants and other businesses that depend on money generated by NHL games. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world hock-

ey championship is expected to generate $30 million in economic activity, according to Cyril Leeder, president of Senators Sports and Entertainment, one of the hosts of the tournament during a press conference on Oct. 11. The games are also expected to bring in an estimated 200,000 spectators, he said. Spectators who will rent hotel rooms, purchase food at restaurants and buy gas at gas stations, boosting the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

economy and encouraging temporary job creation. The last time a Canadian city hosted the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world hockey championship, in 2007, the games generated $29 million in the city of Winnipeg. The games also promise some exciting hockey, with the best players in the world competing for their countries. Some of these players will be putting on the Team Canada jersey for the first time and competing for their

country on an international stage, an honour that overshadows any medal count or the amount of money generated by the tournament. Fans will also be treated to a revival of the long-standing rivalry between Team Canada and Team USA, traditionally two of the best teams in womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey. The tournament will also serve to inspire a new generation of hockey players, some of whom may aspire to one day compete on a na-

tional and international stage. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face it, womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey does not receive the same amount of coverage or support as menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey. If the NHL lockout wipes out the 2012-13 season, people wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be distracted by the playoffs, giving a boost to the profile and fan base of womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey. The federal government has announced it will support the tournament to the tune of $500,000 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a welcome investment in our national sport. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world hockey championship serves as a reminder that NHL hockey isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only game in town.

COLUMN

Life in a super-sized society CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

e may not be getting better but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re certainly getting bigger. You realize this every time you go shopping. Look how big the shopping cart is â&#x20AC;&#x201C; way bigger than it used to be. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pushing a truck down the aisle. The stuff you put in it is big too. And we should have mentioned how big the store is. If you walked from one side to the other without stopping to put any big items in your big cart it would still take you five minutes. The store is big because it has a big selection â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not just groceries, but chairs and TV sets and toys and pharmaceutical stuff. Some of those things are bigger than you expected to find in a grocery store, but fortunately you have a big cart. You pay your big bucks and wheel the big cart out to the parking lot, which is really big. Most of the cars in it are big too. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good thing for carrying big groceries, maybe not so good in other respects. In fact, there are a whole lot of respects in which big is questioned, but not by too many people yet. When â&#x20AC;&#x153;bigâ&#x20AC;? is used as an adjective in our society it means â&#x20AC;&#x153;good.â&#x20AC;? Then you drive onto the big highway that goes where small neighbourhoods used to be. It would all be alarming if you suddenly arrived from a place where things were smaller, but those of us who have been around here for a while have got used to all this bigness. Look what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting in Ottawa: more big buildings, a big development at Lansdowne Park, a big casino. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see politicians

bragging about the small things theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve created. They may have forgotten how to do that. Big is all around us. When we go to the movies it is to a big building with many big theatres inside with wide seats and ample legroom. When we order snacks at the movies the small popcorn is huge and so is the small drink. It is no surprise that people are getting to be pretty big too. A lot of experts worry abut that, but how do you expect people to stay small in such a big environment? Not that everything is big. Some things that we wish were big arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, such as parking spaces. And then there are airplanes. About the only place where we are treated as if we were small is on airplanes. The seats are narrow and the legroom is only adequate for children. Those of us who are not children feel as if we have accidentally stumbled onto the wrong plane, a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plane. Maybe somewhere on the tarmac is the proper plane, a grown-upsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plane with seats that fit us and aisles where two grown-ups can walk by each other. But on this airplane we just feel too big now. The feeling intensifies when we are brought a meal. It is on a tiny tray with little utensils wrapped in plastic which we find there is no place to put once removed. Our fingers are too big to perform the tasks demanded of them. We are all thumbs and the thumbs are too big, too. You know the feeling. As you wrestle with all of this your shoulders collide with the shoulders of the person next to you. Somewhere inside one of the bits of plastic are a tiny plastic fork, a tiny plastic knife, a tiny salt and a tiny pepper and something to wipe up any food you might spill if you are ever able to get it unwrapped. You wish, while you struggle, that you were in a giant movie theatre with a small (big) popcorn and a small (big) drink and that the movie theatre could fly. You appreciate bigness suddenly, except for your own.

Another successful St. John Chrysostom Harvest Festival steve.newman@metrolland.com

St. John Chrysostom Catholic Church parishioners and non-parishioners from Arnprior and beyond helped produce another successful Harvest Festival. Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event was in keeping with the annual tradition of providing more than 1,000 on-site or take-out roast beef dinners during the parishâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest fundraiser of the year. Traditionally, more than $25,000 is raised from

the event, which included the sale of arts and crafts, plus several raffles, including one for Ottawa Senators hockey tickets and another for a $1,000 cash prize. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fundraiser also featured a special financial appeal to registered parishioners, whom Father John Burchat of St. Chrysostom said were â&#x20AC;&#x153;quite generous.â&#x20AC;? The focus of the 2012 Harvest Festival was fundraising for renewal of the church grounds, particularly the parking lot that will be expanded and undergo drainage improvements.

NOTICE

One participant in the church festival was parishioner and Braeside artist Paul Perreault. The raffle winner took home one of Perreaultâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four 24- by 36-inch digital paintings of notable historic site that were on display at the Sunday meal. The paintings were Bridge Over the Madawaska, End of an Era (Gillies Mill in Braeside), Down Memory Lane (John Street) and Return to Braeside (of the old train station torn down in the 1970s). Copies of the book, Heaven Sent, were also for sale. The book contains collected recipes by parishioners, including the butterscotch pie

recipe of Father Burchatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own mother, Helen Burchat of Round Lake. Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s well-attended meal included several out-of-towners, including Angela and Charlie Lajeunesse of Carleton Place who returned for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;great food.â&#x20AC;? Also in attendance was Arnprior native Dawn Ebert, who travelled from Brockville to attend the meal with her parents, Barbara and Gerald Heise of Arnprior. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t miss this for the world, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been going for as long as I can remember,â&#x20AC;? said parishioner Debbie Valin, who attended with family members.

Chrysler, ADHS team up for OYAP EMC news - Ontario’s Youth Apprenticeship Program inaugurated another young apprentice this week: Mitchell Vermette, a Grade 12 student, was registered at the Chrysler dealership in Arnprior. Vermette is part of the coop program at Arnprior District High School, and has been for three semesters now - all the way from September 2011. Vermette is well liked and known for his work ethic. Each semester yields 250 unpaid hours from that designated workplace, more if the student chooses to work over-

time. Ontario’s apprenticeship program requires a specific amount of hours to graduate, and luckily for Vermette, every hour already spent at the dealership goes towards that count. Vermette was hired on for Saturdays and summers at the dealership and began working paid hours as well as his co-op hours. So far he has worked up over 2000 hours at the dealership. Pam Duplessis from the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities was there to sign the apprentice registration form. “He’s doing minor things like oil changes, tire rotations, and brake work,”

said Tom Luimes, Vermette’s boss. “We’re definitely planning on hiring Mitchell as a full-time mechanic.” Now registered as an apprentice, Vermette can expand his duties and work on more complex jobs, and access a new level of mechanical sophistication. “He’s a fast tracker,” said Shirley Stephenson, his coop placement teacher, “Eager and focused. He’s prepared to do the grimy grunt work so he can move up the ladder.” Vermette still has many hours to work until he can graduate from the program.

Cobden Taste of the Valley rules Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

STEVE NEWMAN/METROLAND

Ian McGregor of McGregorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Produce serves the Holm family from Petawawa during a busy Saturday at Cobden Taste of the Valley.

October 15-21, 2012

EMC news - The sixth season of Renfrew County Taste of the Valley events is over, with a good taste in the mouths of vendors and customers. The food-related vendors did as well as any of the more than 100 vendors who participated in the third and last event in the Taste of the Valley series. The event took place Saturday at the Cobden agricultural fair grounds, where business was particularly brisk for those selling edibles, including honey, produce, French fries, smoked fish and beef products. The recent tainted-beef scare in western Canada didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt matters, said Renfrew County business development

office Craig Kelley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know the meat vendors, more than in past years. Food remains among the most popular items. Most food vendors sold out or had very little left at the end of the day.â&#x20AC;? One vendor, Wallace Eady, who was selling honey and smoked fish, said he keeps coming back because he likes the Ottawa Valley flavour of the event. Sean Dennison, who was tending the portable 24-foot climbing wall for RY-Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Climbing Adventures, called Cobdenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Taste of the Valley an awesome opportunity for vendors to showcase their products. One of the estimated 5,000 visitors, Sharon Hanniman of Douglas, loved Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Taste of the Valley. She called

it a wonderful event that offered a wide variety of products. Another customer, Julie Ryan of Bryson, praised the high quality and originality of products available. Just a few of the food-related vendors were Island Girl Herbal Garden Retreat, McGregorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Produce, The Fabulous Food Shack and Stoppa Hill (Honey). Vendors Steve and Bonnie Blais, with Stitches, Stories N Stuff (White Lake), said this and last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cobden Taste of the Valley were extremely good for business. Different communities have hosted Taste of the Valley since its inception with about two dozen vendors in Cobden in 2007 See TASTE, Page 19

A Week Dedicated to Hometown Business

Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vibrant economic development can be attributed in great part to the energy of entrepreneurs and the businesses that they start up. Their ability to quickly innovate to keep abreast of market changes and create employment has made small businesses one of the driving forces of our economy. In light of these contributions, the theme of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Small Business Week is: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the power behind the Canadian economy, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s share the energy!â&#x20AC;? The focus will be on this energy that drives all entrepreneurs who have moved from dreaming to reality by creating their own business. This week will also recognize personal efforts as well as the importance of financing and consultation in bringing innovative ideas to life. This annual event began rather modestly in British Columbia, but quickly picked up steam over the years. Today it is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate entrepreneurial spirit across the country. Organized by the Business Development Bank of Canada, with the support of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, National Business Week continues to pay tribute to small and medium size businesses and the significant contributions they make to the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s labour market. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the power behind the Canadian economy!â&#x20AC;? is the message. Behind every great success is an original idea. Canadian entrepreneurs are experts when it comes to finding the energy and momentum needed to turn these ideas into a profitable reality. Intrigued? Perhaps thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a budding entrepreneur inside you whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just waiting to make his or her mark on the Canadian economy.

Widely acclaimed by academics, it’s a who’s who of the horse racing world that received kudos from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 11. A collection of ballads from another era of horse racing, which celebrate real horses, real people, their dreams and particularly their partnerships with their horses, they are revived in magniﬁcent detail by Arnprior native Bill Galvin. He lived among the unforgettable backstretch characters who populate his ballads.

In August 2006, Ballads of the Turf came galloping off the press, taking its readers to horse racing places they couldn’t get to before. Since then its treasury of poems and stories from another era of horse racing has continued its steady canter, and into the rariﬁed air of a Canadian bestseller in the ﬁeld of equine poetry. Now in its third printing, Ballads of the Turf has captured in its witty poetic verse, delightful rollicking ballads that rhyme with an engaging rhythm, galloping along as they tell the of the real life escapades of Damon Runyonesque-type characters…those of a horse-racing brotherhood, seduced by dreams of racing glory, and kept forever in its grip by the magic and appeal of the backstretch.

Devoted to White Pine Festival

In last week’s story ‘Seven schools compete in recent Optimist Run’ the name of the winner of the intermediate boys race was misspelled. Bryce Walker of St. Joseph’s Catholic School keyed the victory for the school. Last week’s photo caption ‘Pet lovers gather for Pet Valu fun fair to aid Humane Society’ incorrectly stated the donor of the quilt being raffled. The Quilters Guild of Renfrew and Area supplied the quilt. The Chronicle-Guide apologizes for any inconveniences caused by the errors.

Arnprior’s CIBC branch has donated $500 to the White Pine Festival Committee. The donation comes from an ardently devoted partner of the White Pine Festival. Festival director Mike Marcil accepts the cheque in front of the CIBC building. “$500 is a substantial donation, we are very thankful to have such a great partner,” said Marcil last week. CIBC branch manager Shannon Olmstead makes the presentation. The CIBC has committed to the festival in some way or form each year: one year they ran a bingo contest, and all proceeds went directly to the White Pine Festival. The $500 will further increase the quality and facilitate development of the festival.

County of Renfrew

Water Response Team Drought Level 2 Continues

Ground Water Levels at Record Lows - Closely monitor your well level.

County of Renfrew residents and businesses,on groundwater and municipal sources, are encouraged to continue to practice water conservation with a target of a 20% reduction in water use. Despite recent rainfall, the groundwater levels have not shown any significant level of recharge, and they are below normal across the County. Even if we experience significant rainfall this autumn, our groundwater levels may not re-charge adequately for the winter months. Suggestions for residents relying on groundwater and wells: If you have a dug well where you can safely and easily measure the level, record it and check weekly to determine if your well is recharging or if you are at risk of losing your water supply. Turn off electrical power to pump prior to measuring. Do not attempt to measure levels in a drilled well - consult a well drilling contractor. Indicators of low water: lower than normal flows, sediment in the water or cloudy water all indicate low well water levels. You should immediately consult a licensed water well driller.

EMC news - Initiative quickly becomes a necessary quality required to conquer your future as you age, and on the night of that blue-hued moon, youthful innovation and creativity showcased what it can do with initiative. Connor Schriver, a Grade 12 student at Arnprior District High School, began his own venture with the launch of his clothing company, DROP, in January 2012. “The clothes you wear are an expression of yourself— your moods, interests, and taste,” said Schriver last week in the school library. “But seeing people wear my clothing brand feels amazing.” The essence of DROP is kayaking, and it surrounds the

company. “There really isn’t a brand name out there dedicated to white-water kayaking, and because it’s one of my favourite sports, I designed the logo to be kayak-themed.” While doodling in art class, the DROP logo was born. Since then he has punched in over 1,000 hours to the company, and 20 of those this past weekend. “I’m really not an artist; you’d laugh at me if you saw me draw. “But given the time and the effort you put in, you can make anything look good on a computer.” DROP clothing is sold to the far corners of the globe, including New Zealand andSwitzerland, and to New York, western Canada and Ontario. His Facebook page is well over 360 likes, and growing. R0011682418_1018

Team welcomes new player at practice

Senators’captain Daniel Alfredsson scrimmages with a midget team Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – It wasn’t the home opener he expected to play in. On the night West Carleton’s favourite pro player was due to lead his Ottawa Senators during the Montreal Canadiens’ home opener, Daniel Alfredsson instead jumped on the ice for a scrimmage at the W. Erskine Johnston Area in Carp. It was the West Carleton Warriors midget house team’s first practice of the year, Thursday, Oct. 11, at 9:30 p.m. The boys were messing around on the ice, flipping pucks at the net. A few parents huddled around windows to watch from the lobby, sipping coffee, discussing the year ahead. Few noticed Alfie slip past to a separate dressing room, carrying a stick and small bag with gloves, skates, and a blue helmet with his native Sweden emblem on the side and trademark 11 on back. Coach Kevin Kellachan, one of the few in the building to know who was going to help assist him during practice, called the team together at centre ice. None seemed to notice the referee door open at the near end of the rink. Alfie made his way to centre ice, smiling the entire way, before circling the group of wide-eyed teenagers. After Kellachan’s introduction, the Sens captain attempted to break the spell with a few words of instruction. “I kinda miss these 9:30, 10 p.m. practices from my days in junior,” said the Sens’ all-time top point getter. “I expect to see a fast-paced practice today.” As the practice got underway, Dunrobin’s Kellachan took a moment to take in the experience. “You’ve got to respect his years of experience,” he said of the 40-year-old pro. “He’s proven himself a dozen times over. And for the kids? It’s a

big uplift for them starting out the season.” A few dads gathered on the home bench to get a closer look. But on Alfie’s first attempt at an empty net on the far end of the rink, he rifled it off the plexiglass. Laughingly, one observed that “Gesh, I thought he was supposed to be good.”

was a little bit longer of a shift then I’m used to.” He admitted to wishing he was in Montreal instead, but said it is always fun to be on the ice. “I thought it would be good to come out and surprise some kids,” Alfie said. “Make it fun for them.” ENJOYS LIFE IN CARP

ARNPRIOR GOALIE Alfie rarely missed again, to the chagrin of goalie Cole Murray of Arnprior. Among a few dozen players to tally more than 1,000 points in a career, he didn’t hold back on the youngster, pocketing a few before Murray did what won’t soon be forgotten. He stopped one of Alfie’s shots – from the slot no less. “They’re probably just shocked,” said Danielle Dagenais, who with a pointand-shoot was weaving through bodies on the bench to capture her son Chad next to him. When Chad stopped for a squirt of water, the excitement was visible on his face. “It means the world to skate with professional hockey player, especially Alfie,” he said. The two struck a connection during the scrimmage. Maybe it was because they were among the shortest players on the ice; maybe it was the speed; either way, Alfie and Dagenais completed numerous give-and-goes, and racked up a few points along the way. It must have been tough to not be star-struck. The puck seemed glued to Alfie’s stick. So much so that at one point opponents backed off when he went in the corner. “Go get him,” the braver ones from the bench shouted. “Go get him!” Someone, chuckling, said, “Hit him!” After a four-minute shift Alfredsson hopped on the bench. Turning to the player next to him, he said, “That

The Alfredssons live about six kilometres from the Carp rink and an equal distance to Scotiabank Place. He married longtime girlfriend Birgitta in July 2004. They are the parents of four sons: Hugo, Loui, Fenix and William Erik. The family has another home in Särö, Sweden. He enjoys living near Old Carp and Huntmar roads, saying that although his kids attend school in Kanata they, like all kids in West Carleton, take the Friday off school during Carp Fair. “We spend a lot of time in West Carleton, going to the farmers’ market and that,” he said. “People are very friendly and respect our privacy. We really enjoy being out in a rural community.” Alfredsson has won an Olympic gold medal for Sweden; made the NHL all-rookie team in 1996; played in six all-star games; was named top penalty-killer in 2008; and took home the King Clancy Memorial Trophy last year. His younger brother Henric played with the Ottawa 67’s junior team as a 19-year-old during their 1999 Memorial Cup-winning season. Henric decided to stay in Ottawa after his junior hockey career with the 67’s was complete, and now works for the Ottawa Police Service. Alfredsson has appeared in a video supporting You Can Play, a campaign dedicated to fighting homophobia in sports.

DEREK DUNN/METROLAND

Ottawa Senators’ legend Daniel Alfredsson took to the ice in Carp with the local midget house league team on what should have been the Montreal Canadiens’ home opener Hockey President Sherry Malloy opened an email recently that she all but dismissed as spam. It was from Eric Epstein of the National Hockey League Players’ Association. He wanted to know if an unnamed NHL player could jump on the ice to sur-

prise a team on the evening of Oct. 11. “I thought the email was a virus,” Malloy said. But when she came to believe it could be true, she was asked to keep it from the kids. “I was so excited I wanted to tell everyone,” she said.

“We think this is great for the community, to raise spirits for the team. You’re never too old a player to have an NHLer on the ice with you.” Her advice to midget and other players: Show up for practice, because you never know who might be there.

Students score credits in hockey skills program

R0011684163-1018

EMC sports - Hockey education is now part of the curriculum being offered to grade 9 and 10 students for credits at St. Josephâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catholic High School (SJCHS) in Renfrew. In a presentation to the Renfrew County Roman Catholic School Board on September 10, Principal Brennan Trainor outlined the process involved in bringing the Hockey Canada Skills Academy to SJCHS, including endorsement from the Towns of Renfrew and Arnprior and their minor hockey associations, as well as the RCCDSB. Once approval was gained other aspects fell nicely into place. Although all teaching/coaching team members already held hockey coaching levels, academy head instructor Stacey McGregor travelled to Calgary this summer for a week of training that he will share with coaching colleagues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is expected by Hockey Canada to pass that knowledge along to others,â&#x20AC;? notes Trainor. Another condition of the program is that no child would be refused due to the cost, which organizers are pleased to offer at $250 per student. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Other programs in Calgary

charge students as much as $1,600 for the program,â&#x20AC;? comments McGregor. The only additional costs are program jerseys and insurance, and students must have all the approved equipment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a system in place to help any student who wants to participate but canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford the cost,â&#x20AC;? says Trainor. A reciprocal agreement was reached with the Town of Renfrew for use of the Ma-TeWay Park facility five days a week at no cost. The town, in turn, uses the school for some community activities. Teacher/head instructor Meghan Cahill points out that in addition to developing leadership, organization and cooperation skills, the program incorporates many of the Catholic graduate expectations such as being effective communicators and reflective thinkersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and each student is required to keep a daily log. So far, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jag Hockeyâ&#x20AC;? program is generating lots of interest from students and parents, and organizers plan to introduce it to boys and girls in grades seven and eight this year with visits to feeder schools.

Join the Bonnechere Valley Moosetache Challenge Network EMC lifestyle - Movember is coming to Eganville again and once again area men will grow moustaches to raise funds to beat prostate cancer and fund men’s health initiatives. During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces, in Canada and around the world. With their “Mo’s”, these men raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health, speciﬁcally prostate cancer and male mental health initiatives. Moustache-growing does not have to be painful. These selﬂess and generous men,

known as Mo Bros, groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of ﬁne moustachery. Supported by the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking out sponsorship for their Mo-growing efforts. Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of November. Through their actions and words, they raise awareness by prompting private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men’s health. The Great Bonnechere Valley Moosetache Challenge will kick off on November 1st at

Frisco’s at 6:00pm. Any men interested in participating are asked to attend (clean-shaven!) Men are encouraged to join individually or in teams. Even if you cannot be at Frisco’s on Nov. 1 you can register in advance by visiting the Movember website: www.movember. com/ca/register/ Once you have registered, please join the network: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/ network/view/id/20314 Last year the Bonnechere Valley Moosetache Challenge raised almost $10,000. Let’s see if we can beat that in 2012. Cash dona-

tions can be made at area businesses or credit card donations can be made online. There will be a ﬁnale party again at Frisco’s on Nov. 29 when we will see the results of the moustache-growing efforts. We are hoping once agan for a good turnout and for local businesses to donate prizes. If any businesses would like to donate prizes or if anyone needs more information about Movember, please contact Niall McArdle at Serendipity on the River (613 628 9559; or email him at serendipityontheriver@bellnet. ca)

Football frenzy St. Joseph’s Catholic School students faced off against teachers for their annual flag football tournament on Friday, Oct. 12. The game is an annual friendly competition between students and teachers. “After the students have participated in the eastern Renfrew County tournament, we usually celebrate the end of the season with a teacher/student game,” said principal Mary-Lise Rowat. In the end, the teachers prevailed with six touchdowns versus four for the students. Clockwise, from top left, Ryan Massoud is chased with the ball by Rowat and practice teacher Stephanie MacLaren; Grade 6 students Emma Johnson, left, and Sarah Scarfe, right, cheered on their fellow classmates during the game, and lastly, Grade 8 teacher Nathan Hisko got into the spirit for the annual event.

PETS

Enjoy a spooktacular pet-friendly Halloween EMC Lifestyle - Most children and adults look forward to Halloween fun, costumes and trick-or-treating. But this particular holiday can prove to be a stressful and potentially hazardous time for your beloved pets. Here are some tips to keep your animals safe and sound during this Halloween season Loud noises can easily excite and frighten pets. Dogs in particular can often feel threatened by strangers appearing at the door in strange costumes. If possible, keep your pets secured in a separate room in your house while young trick-or-treaters are

ringing your doorbell. If you decide to let your pets be â&#x20AC;&#x153;part of the actionâ&#x20AC;?, keep a close eye on them so they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t suddenly make a break for the open door and slip out into the great outdoors. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave your pets outside on Halloween night. Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s especially should be kept indoors several days prior to (and on the night of) Halloween. Pranksters can tease or hurt your animal at this time of the year, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all heard the horror stories of cats being killed by vicious people on this particular night. If dressing your pet up in costume, make sure it is lightweight and non-constricting. It should be loose enough that

an animal can easily get out of it. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use rubber bands, as they can constrict blood flow if too tight and can become entangled in an animalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fur. Also, get your pet used to the costume several days before Halloween and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t force them to wear it if they rebel. Never leave a pet in costume unattended. They could chew it up and ingest harmful materials or become entangled and choke. Make sure your walk your dog earlier in the evening, before it gets dark. * If you are escorting children for trickor-treating, leave your pets at home. Dogs get can excited and stressed when encountering all these â&#x20AC;&#x153;strange laugh-

Save the animals, stall the cull Lanark Hay-East Fling Committee

Area livestock is currently being threatened by the recent drought so the local farming community, neighbours and friends are taking up their cause. The Lanark Hay East Fling 2012 is a fundraising event (concert/dance) that will be held at Almonte, Ontario in the Civitan Club Hall on Saturday Nov. 3 kicking off at 7 p.m. It will feature several Ottawa Valley musicians, media personalities, characters and others in an old time community celebration - a wholehearted display of togetherness and unified support. Included in this event will also be other activities such as

a barbecue, pie auction, silent auction and more. Everyone involved is donating their time and talent. This includes the donation of the hall, food, entertainers and media people, servers, sound and light people, committee members, concerned citizens, printing and advertising. All proceeds will go towards paying the transportation costs of getting feed (hay) from the west to our desperate farmers here. The Mennonite Disaster Relief Committee has graciously collected and is providing hay (free of charge) from western Canada in an attempt to rescue the farmers in our area. Funds are badly needed however to pay the cost of

transporting the feed here and so far there has been no government assistance in this crisis. Area farmers have been forced to reduce their herd numbers as they cannot afford to feed their animals any longer. Without immediate help more animals will have to be eliminated. Aside from this event other fundraising initiatives have been put in place such as the establishment of a special bank account and donation options that the public can participate in. For more information contact Dave Campbell, director of the Lanark Federation of Agriculture at 613-268-2138, email aveandfern@hotmail.com.

ing, squealingâ&#x20AC;? creatures and may become agitated enough to snap at a young child. If you must take your dog with you, keep it on a short leash and away from large groups of children and other pets. Halloween candy is for humans, not animals. Do not give your pets any candy, especially chocolate. Candy in itself can make your pet sick and chocolate is especially toxic to dogs. Cellophane wrappers, foil

paper and lollipop sticks should be discarded into the garbage. These items can hazardous to your pet if swallowed by causing intestinal obstructions and even perforating the intestines, which is life-threatening. Keep your pets away from lit candles and pumpkins. They can easily knock them over causing a fire. Cats and kittens are especially curious and could accidentally burn themselves if they get too

close to an open flame. Make sure your pets have collars and identification tags just in case they do manage to get outside. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to a haunting and safe Halloween!

Tips, trivia and why King Louis XV liked cold soup Occasionally instead of passing along a recipe, I write a column filled with kitchen shortcuts and helpful tips. If I’ve come across some interesting bit of food trivia, I’ll include that as well. This week, I’ll take you from graham wafer crusts to King Louis XV of France. * When you need to press a graham wafer crust into a springform pan, sometimes it’s hard to find just the right tool. If you use your fingertips, they get greasy and covered with crumbs. A fork doesn’t get right to the edge of the pan, and it flattens only a small area at a time. * One of the best tools is a round potato masher, the kind that has square holes, not curved lines of wire. The curved shape fits the edges of the springform pan and the large size covers a bigger area with each impression. * Another handy item to

for rolling out dough into a rectangle for making pastries such as cinnamon rolls. They’re also handy for making French bread when the dough needs to be shaped by rolling it back and forth on a flat surface.

PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff keep on hand in your kitchen is a box of thin latex gloves, the kind that food preparers use in commercial establishments. Put on a pair of gloves whenever you’re handling a messy mixture in the kitchen. Whether you’re pressing crumbs into a springform pan, shaping meatballs, working with dough or mixing meatloaf, they’ll let you get right in there with your hands, yet keep them clean. A word of caution:, don’t re-use gloves that you’ve used on raw meat, fish or poultry. Throw them out to avoid possible contamination of other

foods. * To tenderize beef stew, add one or two tomatoes to the pot. Tomatoes contain an acid that breaks down meat and tenderizes it naturally. * If your glass or plastic cutting board slides across the kitchen counter when you’re using it, dampen a dish cloth, and lay it on the counter under the cutting board. This also works on the large plastic sheets when rolling out pastry on them. * If you have one of the large rectangular glass or plastic cutting board, measure its length and width. Many are just the right size

* Which brings us to King Louis XV of France. According to one story, he was so afraid of being poisoned that he had several servants taste his food before he ate it. By the time the soup reached him, it was cold.

He liked it so much that he had it served cold from then on. That -- supposedly -- is why the creamy French potato soup, vichysoisse, is always served chilled.

Old tilted silo and stone tower in Italy similar according to Emerson EMC lifestyle - It all started when Emerson brought the book home from the Renfrew Library. While the rest of us picked story books, mine with pictures, Emerson always wanted a book about buildings. Now, there wasn’t a large choice of books on buildings at the Renfrew library, and that day Emerson found one, all about some huge structure in Italy, it changed his life drastically. Emerson loved buildings. Mother managed somehow to buy him big pads of plain white paper, and he spent hours drawing buildings. We would watch him at the old pine table at night drawing towers of glass. Poor Emerson, we’d say. Who ever heard of glass buildings? Who ever heard of towers made completely of windows and some with elevators going up the outside? And we’d think how odd Emerson was. Not like the rest of us who were content to look through Eatons catalogue or play cars….no, Emerson drew buildings. The book was all about some strange building in Italy… it was called The Tower of Pisa. Emerson was spellbound, not because it was so tall and was built in some strange country, but because it had a lean to it! He sat at the table every night gazing at the Tower of Pisa, and he even drew it on his white sheets of paper! Little did we know at the time what he had in mind. “We have one just like it. Right here on this here farm,” he announced after about three nights of gazing at the pictures in the book. No one

Mary Cook’s Memories BY MARY COOK

paid him any heed. It was the next day….a Saturday it was. Emerson, after his chores had been done, came in to the house and gathered up his sheets of paper and the book on the Leaning Tower of Pisa and headed outside. “I have something to show you,” he announced to anyone within earshot. Earl and I were the only ones interested and we followed Emerson with his sheets of paper throughout the summer kitchen. He headed right for the silo. There was an old stump beside the silo… I wouldn’t go near it with a ten foot pole because that’s where the chickens got the axe. Emerson knew I hated that part of the barn yard, so he went down the hill a few good paces, and beckoned Earl and me to follow. The silo was in front of us. Emerson held up his pencil and squinted as he leveled it in his eyesight. “See how the silo tilts? Just like that one in Italy. I wouldn’t be one bit surprised if whoever built it, used the same plans as the tower in Italy. And maybe even had a hand in helping building this one here.” While that made perfect sense to me, Earl was much less impressed. “The one in Italy is made of stone. This here silo is made

of old pieces of lumber. And Emerson, you know as well as I do that the reason it’s tilted is because it’s over 100 years old, and was built on a bit of a hill,” Earl said. And besides, he added, “Our great grandfather built the silo when he came from Germany. “This here silo has nothing to do with a building in Italy.” Now, as well as liking to draw buildings, Emerson also liked to hold funerals for anything that passed away on the farm. Dead birds found out on the grass, even a frog that was found in a rain barrel at the back of the house, were all subjected to Emerson’s idea of a ﬁtting funeral. Again, Audrey and Everett refused to have any part of Emerson’s idea of a proper burial, but Earl and I being the youngest of the children, were riveted to any crazy scheme our brother had that would add a bit of excitement to our lives out on that farm in Northcote. I had no idea if Emerson made it up, or if it was actually in the book from the library, but he said funerals were held in front of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and from now on, any funeral he would be conducting would be in front of our old wood silo. Just like they had in front of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Well, as luck would have it,

a few days later, Mother had ordered Everett to get some chickens to take into her customers in Renfrew. That meant a trip to the stump behind the silo. Emerson decided these poor chickens needed a proper funeral, and we would all meet behind the silo as Everett wielded the axe. I was having no part of it. Earl, who was as squeamish as I was when it came to beheading the chickens, said he had chores to do and the last I saw of Earl he was heading for the barn. I was already getting on an apron in the kitchen and looking for something to do. Emerson showed his disgust by stomping outside with his papers in hand, heading for the silo, looking for something to bury. There wasn’t a dead bird or any other dead critter in sight and he had to give up on the idea of holding a funeral in front of the silo that day, because Everett said if he came within a country mile of the stump, Emerson could help with the slaughter. Well, Emerson was as squeamish as Earl and I, and the only thing he was interested in burying or holding a funeral for, was something that was already dead. We were all saved from another discussion about future funerals held behind the silo, because like everyone else who borrowed a book from the Renfrew library, Emerson had to take back in a week the book on the Leaning Tower of Pisa, or pay a cent for every day it was overdue. It was the last we heard of the likeness between our old tilted silo and some stone tower in Italy.

The group is working on building their community offline as well, currently they have three weekly play groups: In Renfrew on Tuesday mornings at 9:30 a.m. at Ma-te-way Park for a Walk and Talk, on Mondays and Thursdays in Richmond they have a group who meets at Chanon House Park from 11 a.m. to noon and on Sundays in Kanata they have a group who meets at the Sippy Cup Café from 9 to 11 a.m. “We hope to expand to other local areas as well,” noted McLeod. LAUNCH On Sept. 14 the website held its official launch/tweet up at the Brookstreet hotel in Kanata, where more than 90 people came out to celebrate. “We’ve talked to a lot of people online and it was a chance to put names with faces,” said McLeod. “It was a chance to network and meet new people too.” They hope to hold one major event per month. The next event will be at Saunders Farm, Saturday, Oct. 6 at 10:30 a.m. If you register on-

line there is also a discounted price. “We are hoping to plan movie and dinner nights out for mom’s only,” said Duggan. They are also hoping to plan more events in Almonte, Arnprior and Carleton Place. The newest feature on the site is a ‘What’s Going on Section’ where the ladies will be focusing on different events happening in the area. On Oct. 1 they added the new header to the top banner. They encourage people to send them information, which they will post on the site for free. “We hope to get other moms out and involved in the community,” said McLeod. “I wanted to connect with other women and let them know that they are not alone,” added Duggan. The site also offers a secure consignment store where shoppers can pay via credit card, pay pal or cash on delivery. The site offers a number of other features including an online book club.

McLeod was surprised by the comments she received on a recent post. “It’s funny sometimes, I wrote a silly piece on break outs and I got 15 comments,” she said with a laugh. The site officially launched on July 30 and in the first month they had 9,157 site visits, 26,308 page views, and 4,992 unique visitors. “We were overwhelmed at how well it did,” said Duggan. “It was huge.” “We are definitely making an indent in the area,” added McLeod. “A lot of people have commented that there is nothing like this in the area. They have also been shocked to find out they have regular visitors from around the world. “We have had people from England and Australia comment that they are not from this area but can relate to what we are posting. The issues we are discussing are worldwide,” said McLeod.

EMC News – Moms and women in the Ottawa Valley have a new online community just for them. Ottawa Valley Moms (OVM) is a new website (www.ottawavalleymoms), which is a resource for women from Pembroke to Arnprior to Almonte to Carleton Place to Orleans and everywhere in between. “We are fun and interactive just like our followers and we are just trying to be a voice for the moms of the Ottawa Valley,” said Crystal McLeod from the Pakenham area. The five founding moms, and one mom in training, blog on a wide array of topics such as: self, family, health, home, relationships, reviews and things to do. McLeod explained that the women often had weekly play dates where they would discuss a wide range of parenting and lifestyle topics. “We started to talk about sharing with other moms and wondered if they had the same issues as us,” said McLeod. She credits Erin Blaskie for coming up with the idea for a website and two weeks later they launched. “We were trying to research things to do in our community and we found that there was not one website where people could go to,” said Tricia Duggan, who is originally from Arnprior but now lives in Renfrew. “We want to be a resource for women in this area.” McLeod explained that they haven taken material they discussed as friends and have expanded on it. “It’s nice to know that people can relate to what we are posting,” added Duggan. “Some of the stuff you would talk about with your girlfriends, it’s an extension of that,” said McLeod. “We laugh a lot but we write about serious stuff as well.

DEADLINE: TUESDAY AT NOON.

Metroland Media currently has an opening for a Regional Human Resources Manager supporting the Eastern Ontario region. The incumbent will be responsible for providing expert consultation to the region, ensuring all Human Resources needs are successfully met. This role requires a dynamic individual that is capable of performing at both a hands-on and strategic capacity. The position will be based primarily out of Smiths Falls, with travel to the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other ofďŹ ces from Kingston to Ottawa. Key Responsibilities:

REDDY Lawrence Martin (Larry) Lawrence Martin (Larry) Reddy was born June 5, 1938 to Elizabeth & Isaiah Reddy of Calabogie. Larry was the oldest of four children. His sister, Marie, passed away August 19, 2005. Marieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband, Mickey McArthur, passed away April 14, 2011, leaving three children, Kevin, Kelly, Kerri & families. Larryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, Garry, lives in Ottawa and sister, Colleen, lives in Smiths Falls with husband, Clarke Eady. They have two children, Christopher & Shannon and three grandchildren. Larry attended school in Calabogie & Renfrew. He worked in the mines in Sudbury and then as a Hoisting Engineer with Ontario Hydro. Larry married Reina Raymond on July 2, 1982. They lived in Pembroke but he always loved his house in Calabogie. Reina as been so outstanding in Larryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life, never leaving his side for a moment. Larry played guitar and sang Country & Western music, his favourite song being â&#x20AC;&#x153;From a Jack to a Kingâ&#x20AC;?. Many get-to-gethers with Larry on guitar and Marie on piano were enjoyed at his home and those good times will always be treasured. He never missed St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day at the Mountain or in Douglas with the Huntâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Bolgerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s & Kileyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Pat Brennan and Ken Brasch were good friends. Ken helped with renovations in Calabogie. Larryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s closest friend since childhood was Jack Gorra. Jack, Nancy & family always had a special connection and stayed so close over the years. Larry was exceptionally good to his family. He was always there for his Mom and made sure she always got out to those dances she loved. He was so good to his brother, Garry, phoning him every day and helping him in every way. When Larry walked through the door at his home in Calabogie, we were always so happy to see him. He always ďŹ xed anything that was wrong and we always called him our â&#x20AC;&#x153;Knight in Shining Armourâ&#x20AC;?. We wish you could have stayed with us longer, Larry, you were such a gentle soul with such a kind heart and we will always miss you so very much. Love your family XOXOXO

ENRIGHT

February 23, 1994 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; October 20, 2011

In loving memory of a dear husband and father, Dennis Isaiah Enright March 20, 1920 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; October 20, 2008 The blow was great, The shock severe, We little thought the End was near. Only those who have Lost can tell The pain of parting Without farewell. More each day we Miss you, father Friends may think The wound is healed, But they little know, the sorrow That lies within our hearts concealed. Your family Wife, Doris Sons, Lorne (Colleen) Darryl (Jean) Grandchildren, Jason Erin, Kristin, Sarah, James and families CL384661

In Memory of Andre Boulanger (July 15, 1931 to October 21, 2011) Beloved Husband, Loved Father, Proud (Grand) Pere Predeceased by Sophia Bouanger (Wife) and Andre Jr Boulanger (Son)

Those we love are never really lost to us - we feel them in so many special ways through friends they always cared about and dreams they left behind, in beauty that they added to our days... in words of wisdom we still carry with us and memories that never will be gone... Those we love are never really lost to us - For everywhere their special love lives on.

As The White Dove Soars There is a crystal clear blue sky With the sun shining warm and bright As the color of the leaves change The White Dove soars day and night Keeping your watchful eyes upon us As you have always done You were an amazing Husband and Father Having a Wife, a Daughter and Three Sons You were a devoted Dad and Loving Husband You have been thorough many journeys with your family and wife You were a knowledgeable and sporty man Who also served for his Country, willing to give his life

Mark, you are missed more than words can say and in our hearts and memories of you will always stay.

You loved to hear the stories and see pictures Of your (Great) Grandchildren as they would grow They would fill your heart with their voice, love, warmth and laughter They made you smile, to cherish Memories to forever hold

Love from Mom, Dad, Amanda and your family and friends. Xoxoxoxo CL385628

You were a collector of many things Especially the beauty of trees and flowers After taking an early retirement You would enjoy the outdoors for many hours

Ryan Enright

Then came that time Of some dark and dreary days Of suffering in discomfort and pain Of being sick in a horrible way

Dec. 17, 1985 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Oct. 21, 2009

Although it was hard for us to see and hear How you did not want to suffer like that anymore every day It made us feel good to help and give back to you For all that you have given us in so many ways

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not forgotten, Ryan, dear Nor ever shall you be; As long as life and memory last I shall remember thee.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been one year now Dad As of October 21st, 2011 Since you have gotten your wish To be with Mom and Baby Andre in Heaven We miss your stories that you used to tell We miss your knowledgeable words of advice

We think of him in silence, No eyes can see us weep; But still within our aching hearts His memory we keep.

But know this, our Dear Dad We were happy, you longer suffered each day and night Continue to soar with Mom and Baby Andre too Throughout the crystal clear blue skies Please continue to watch over us With your strong and guarding eyes As we watch the Leaves change colors It will remind us of the many things you have done

Love Mom, Dad Sean, Robert & Lauren
