EMC news - The Renfrew and Arnprior detachments of the Ontario Provincial Police could amalgamate in 2013. At the Nov. 5 meeting of the local Community Police Advisory Council, Horton councillor Glen Campbell said he was told the proposal could be realized as early as January 2013. “Efficiencies are one of our goals within the organization,” Staff-Sgt. Colin Slight, commander of the Renfrew OPP, told the Chronicle-Guide. “At this point in time we’re looking for efficiencies and cost-saving measures, and amalgamation of detachments is one of the things being looked at.” Slight stressed that no final decision has been made, but that if the amalgamation does

happen it would likely occur in 2013. The number of officer and civilian employees is about 45 in the Renfrew detachment and about 15 in Arnprior. At present, the Arnprior detachment polices the Town of Arnprior, while the Renfrew detachment is responsible for policing in Renfrew, Greater Madawaska, McNab-Braeside, Admaston-Bromley, Horton and about half of Whitewater Region Township. If the proposal is approved, Campbell said the OPP would retain its Arnprior office, but administrative personnel would operate out of the Renfrew OPP. Arnprior’s platoon of officers, which are mainly out of Stittsville and Kanata, would remain housed in the Arnprior division, added Campbell.

EMC news - The Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation has begun work action after discussions with the provincial government ended without a collective agreement. The OSSTF initiated the work action Monday after the move was postponed for five days, said OSSTF president Ken Coran in a news release. It affects many public high schools, including Arnprior District High School. “It’s not work action in the normal sense,” said Jeff Barber, a veteran Renfrew Collegiate Institute teacher and Local 28 president of the OSSTF. “We’re not outside on the picket line. We’re still sticking, as our (provincial) president said, to the meat and potatoes of our job. We’re focused on the teaching and the planning and the marking. Those are the fundamental parts of our job.”

An amalgamated detachment could be in the works.

OPP merger? Continued from front

Any amalgamated detachment would be headed up by Staff-Sgt. Slight. If the amalgamation happens, Campbell says there would be no negative operational impact or increased cost to Horton Township for police services. Depending on whether it’s Horton or other local municipalities, there would be an estimated decrease in police costs of two to 15 per cent. “Again, it’s a proposal. From what we’re hearing and what they’re proposing, there’s no negative impact. The Arnprior officers are still in Arnprior, and the Renfrew officers are still in Renfrew. Some that are not familiar with each area will be crossed over so they learn the areas. “It’s not a new concept,� said Campbell, offering the example of the Killaloe-Whitby amalgamation, for which Killaloe serves as the host and Whitby as the satellite.

The action consists of strike-related sanctions, including the withdrawal of student supervision before and after school, and at lunch. “This work action is going to take as long as it needs to take,� said Barber. The strike action involves about 20 school boards in Ontario, including the Renfrew County District School Board. Those taking strike action include early childhood educators, office managers, teachers and occasional teachers. The work action is happening at such boards as Upper Canada, Waterloo Region, Wellington Catholic, Halton, Limestone, Toronto, Hastings and Prince Edward and Ottawa-Carleton. Student supervision is being handled through a contingency plan, which means principals and vice-principals must stay on the high school grounds, and not leave for meetings. Other support is coming from retired principals and board-based administrators. The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario indicates its elementary teachers are not yet in a strike position. However, more than 75 ETFO locals have requested conciliation to help negotiate their collective agreements with the

Meanwhile, the elementary teachers are backing an online petition calling for MPPs to repeal Bill 115, which was passed in September. “Bill 115,� says the online petition, “undermines the guarantees made to all Canadians under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

EMC news - The Ontario Provincial Police is investigating a suspicious death, after the Renfrew detachment of the OPP responded to a call about 3:30 p.m. Sunday. The call concerned the discovery of human remains in a wooded area of Greater Madawaska Township, near Norton Road, just north of Calabogie. Ontario Provincial Police sources aren’t saying how long the person had been dead. But it’s apparently a significant period, since the police were unable to identify the body as male or female. Under the direction of OPP Det.-Inspector Kevin Corcoran, of the OPP’s criminal investigation branch, the death is being treated as suspicious. The OPP’s emergency response team (ERT) is assisting in the investigation. Numerous police officers were on the scene this week, with various other units assigned to the case. These units include the Renfrew OPP crime unit, the East Region’s crime and canine units, the OPP’s forensic unit out of Smiths Falls, and the criminal investigation branch out of Orillia. A report from the postmortem, which was scheduled for Nov. 14, is expected to be released this week, said Sgt. Kristine Rae, media relations officer for the OPP’s East Region. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the Renfrew OPP crime unit at 613-432-3211.

Renfrew OPP officers responded to 12 domestic disputes during the past week. One male was charged with assault, and one male was charged with assault and mischief. No other criminal offences occurred. IMPAIRED DRIVERS

On Saturday November 10 at approximately 1p.m. Renfrew and Arnprior OPP officers responded to a report of a male driver of a pickup truck

possibly drinking from a beer bottle while driving on Highway 17. The suspect vehicle was stopped on Highway 17 near Campbell Drive in McNab/Braeside Township. The male driver had the odour of alcohol on his breath and failed a roadside alcohol screening test. He was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew on Nov. 28. On Sunday, Nov. 11 at approximately 2:30 a.m. Provincial Constable Cosmo Longo located an idling vehicle on Prince Ave. W. in Renfrew. Upon speaking with the male driver the male was arrested for impaired care or control of a motor vehicle. He was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew on Dec. 12. He was also issued tickets for fail-

The home was entered through a basement window and once inside the thief searched the home and stole identification, alcohol and a big screen TV. A golf cart was stolen from Mountain Creek Golf Course overnight on Nov. 7. The thief cut a chain to gain access to the carts and drove the Yamaha golf cart away towards Robertson Road. Provincial Constable Marc Bennett is investigating.

Homeopathy – the freedom of choice To the editor: I am intrigued with the two letters to the editor in response to the free homeopathic flu prophylaxis clinics in Arnprior and Renfrew and the judgments made in their content. I think we have to distinguish three topics: 1. The function of the media 2. Our constitutional rights 3. The effectiveness of homeopathic remedies The function of the media is to inform. Not to judge, but simply to inform its readers. Just like the Ottawa Citizen informed us a few weeks ago, that 60 per cent of doctors actually do not take the flu shot themselves. Now, I could say “Hmm, do they know something I don’t know?” But I won’t judge or make any conclusion, as it is their

personal choice! And with that statement we are at the second subject. Thanks to our constitutional rights, every Canadian has the freedom of choice. Now, the freedom of choice also commits us to take full responsibility for our actions. People are often confused when they have to decide what’s best for them and actually act out of fear rather than making an educated decision. Remember, choices and circumstances are very individual and nobody has the jurisdiction over anyone else. Therefore, we need to make our own choices out of free will and not out of a pressured opinionated view. What is good for one might not be good for another. However, how do you

choose which way to go, if you only know of one way? Nature’s Truth (formerly the Hahnemann Centre for Heilkunst) is dedicated to educate individuals of medical alternatives, to offer an alternative choice to the conventional annual flu shot or in fact any other medical condition. Now we come to the real message of their letters. ‘Homeopathy doesn’t work’ a statement that makes me smile. Individuals purely engulfed in the molecular and materialistic realm have yet to discover ‘nature’s truth.’ Nature provides everything we need to heal our bodies and the application of homeopathic remedies is only one alternative choice. However, a professional consultation is vital for its suc-

cess in complex and chronic cases. Just as it can be used to treat ailments of any kind it also can be used to prevent them and that’s what is done in the form of the oral homeopathic flu prophylaxis. With the carefully chosen remedy in its required potency and applied based on the law of similars, any condition can be treated. Homeopathy has been around for more than 200 years and if it wouldn’t work, it would be long extinct. The royal family has been using homeopathic remedies for generations and there even is the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital in England. It is common in Germany for GP’s and medical doctors to apply homeopathic remedies in their medical

practice and this actually is not a conflict of interest, but rather a suitable partnership between the conventional and homeopathic medical community. I encourage everyone to become more open-minded in order to make their own educated choices rather than pushing their beliefs and opinions onto others. Try it for yourselves. People who did, know the answer – homeopathy works! – always - based on the laws and principles of nature. In good health and love, Manuela Mueller-Code Doctor of Medical Heilkunst & Dynamic Blood Analysis Nature’s Truth (formerly The Hahnemann Centre for Heilkunst)

Thanks to dog owners and members of the public who do the right thing To the editor: Thank you to all the dog owners who loyally take their dogs for their daily walks, who clean up after their dogs, who stop and socialize which enables our dogs to have the opportunity to do the same. Thank you to the people who carry dog treats during

their own daily walks to share with our ever grateful dogs, (ladies you know who you are), and to business owners who offer water and dog treats to dogs passing by, or sometimes stopping in for a visit, (our favourite mechanic you know who you are). Thank you to drivers who

take the extra time to stop and let us cross at busy intersections. To the people who comment “nice dog”. To the children who ask permission to pet our dogs. There are many wonderful people who enjoy and appreciate what Man’s best friend brings to our community. To the person who likes to

NFU asks government to come through with drought relief EMC news – Despite the wet fall, Eastern Ontario farmers still need drought relief. That’s the contention of the Renfrew County National Farmers Union, which sent a letter recently to the federal and provincial ministers of agriculture reiterating the need of AgriRecovery funds for drought relief. In his letter, Renfrew County NFU president Dave Mackay notes the AgriRecovery Program was designed for governments to respond quickly when disaster like the drought strikes a region and existing programs cannot fully address the losses. He pointed out about 70 per cent of farmers in Renfrew County are unable to access existing programs as they are not enrolled and, therefore, funds are badly needed in order for farmers to make it through the

winter. The letter also went on to outline that apparently AgriRecovery funding is meant to cover extraordinary costs incurred after a disaster. Many farmers in Renfrew County are faced with many extraordinary costs (loss of 60 per cent of their cash crop, very costly feed replacements, loss of good genetics, loss of water supplies and increased operating costs), Mackay wrote. In 2009 Manitoba farmers were compensated after a flood disaster through the AgriRecovery program, receiving $40 per acre for established forage crops and payments of $70 per head for mature livestock. “There is no reason why Renfrew County farmers shouldn’t be compensated in a similar manner,” said Mackay, adding the NFU has also requested compensa-

tion for affected cash croppers, beekeepers and market gardeners. He noted hay from other parts of Canada was recently delivered into the County at a reduced cost. “As farmers we appreciate the efforts of our farm organizations … However, not everyone was assisted and additional aid is still needed by many farmers,” he wrote. Adding to the problem are the likelihood both seed and fertilizer prices for 2013 will increase due to the drought conditions. “If funding does not come through AgriRecovery as soon as possible, farmers may have nowhere to turn come spring,” said Mackay. “When the farming community suffers from low returns, so do the farm-related businesses, local governments and communities as a whole.”

Disregard for tradition at ceremony To the editor: The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. It is a vitally important part of the Remembrance Day observation ceremony, with historical significance. Is it too much to ask of the organizers that this be respected at the ceremony at the Arnprior Cenotaph? Three years ago the two minute silence took place at 10.50 a.m. I wrote about it to the Legion and. while receiving no acknowledgement, was happy that it occurred at 11 a.m. the next year. I was unable to be there last year, but was there this year. That The Last Post was played at around 10.45 a.m., followed immediately by the silence, would suggest a flagrant and unfortunate disregard for the important tradition that calls for all people across any given time zone to unite in reflection and respect for the significance of the ceremony - at the same time. Is there any valid reason that Arnprior should be different? Adam Bramble Arnprior

Give gift certificates to local businesses for Christmas The Arnprior Chronicle-Guide EMC is all about community. Your community. So when we were forwarded an email that struck some folks as one heck of a good message, we listened. The email encourages the birth of a new tradition this Christmas, one that moves beyond mass-produced gifts that flood into Canada to serve our nagging need for more “stuff.� The movement it promotes is all about showing concern for fellow Canadians who provide day-to-day services by giving gift certificates for everything from hair cuts and car detailing to gym memberships or breakfast at a local restaurant. “Remember, folks,� the email says. “This

isn’t about big national chains. This is about supporting your hometown Canadian, with their financial lives on the line, to keep the doors open.� The possibilities are many. Lawn mowing. Driveway snow ploughing. An oil change. Local hand-made crafts. The services of a local cleaning lady for one day. If you’re looking for ideas, the ChronicleGuide EMC is the best place to start. Every week this newspaper carries the advertising of many small local business to more than 7,000 doorsteps. The actual author of the new-tradition email is unidentified, but he or she encourages recipients to spread the message far and wide.

It’s a clear effort to tap into grassroots support and create a groundswell of awareness about the power of Buy Local initiatives. “When we care about other Canadians, we care about our communities, and the benefits come back to us in ways we couldn’t imagine,� the email says. While the vast majority of unidentified, mass emails aren’t worth the time spent opening them, we have stumbled upon a gem. As the author notes, “This is a revolution of caring about each other, and isn’t that what Christmas is really all about?� In keeping with this theme, we note that Renfrew County has launched a new website that is well worth a look – www.OttawaValley-

Wood.com The forestry sector is a treasured part of our rural heritage and is important to future economic development. Now it’s easy to source wood products locally to support the local forest industry and local businesses by checking out the site. County of Renfrew forester Lacey Rose reports the site has been active for about a month now and the response has been very positive. The site features a directory with a search option, and a map showing producers in the area. From flooring and furniture to jewelry and grilling planks, wood would be a nice choice this Christmas.

Messages from Donkey Donkey is a master of subtlety. He can deliver a strong, clear message with a stance and a stare. We first discovered this Donkey talent when the girls were much younger. Amy was bouncing on the trampoline one day and I was watching from the kitchen window. Suddenly she hollered, “Diana! Donkey is staring at me!� “It’s ok. He just likes watching people,� I informed her, remembering the episode the week before when the Farmer tried to fix his tractor and Donkey snuck up behind him to see what he was doing. When the Farmer turned around to see the source of the hot, damp air on his neck, he came nose to snout with Donkey. Now he always makes sure the gate to the shed is locked when he is trying to work on something. On that night long ago, Amy came in from bouncing, a little freaked out by Donkey. A few minutes later we heard a clunk on the back porch. There was Donkey, tapping his hoof on the bottom step. He had let himself into the yard through the gate, determined to deliver his message. So I went out to talk to him, and put him back in the barnyard. He walked purposefully off into the darkness, toward the pasture. At that moment I realized the sun had set, and I hadn’t seen the sheep come in. But I could hear them, in the distance. I grabbed a flashlight and followed Donkey. Donkey led me two fields back and one field over, where we found the sheep. They had

burrowed into a fluffy meadow through a new hole in the fence – one that Donkey couldn’t fit through —and now that it was dark, they couldn’t find their way back out. They were just sitting there bawling away, no doubt attracting coyotes. I opened the gate and shooed them through. They high-tailed it up the tractor lane toward the barn, commenting loudly all the way. I gave Donkey a carrot and an apple that night, and told him he was a very good shepherd. The other day I came home from work to find the horse and donkey leaning on the fence to the yard, craning their necks to reach the longish grass that still grew there. They straightened up and stared at me. “What?� I asked. Then I noticed the hay feeders were empty. I looked out at the pasture. The sheep were out there, nibbling on the November grass, but there wasn’t much left to satisfy a horse and donkey. I’m not the kind of farmwife who knows how to operate a tractor and lift a round bale of hay. Many times I wish I could. A note on the kitchen table

told me the Farmer was up in his deer stand. It would be another hour or so until dark. “He will be back soon, and he will feed you,� I told the horse, who tossed her mane, and walked away. Donkey continued to stare. I went into the house, and within about five minutes the sound of thundering hooves got my attention. Misty was running around the barnyard, spooked by the fence that had snapped and coiled up around her legs. She was lucky not to be tangled in it. I swore and stomped off to the shed for tools to repair the fence. Donkey and his horse took that moment to let themselves into the yard for a feed. I let them eat for an hour. Then I ushered them back into the barnyard and bungee-corded some wood pallets across the gap in the fence. This morning I heard Donkey winding up for a good bray. I looked out and there he was, standing at the broken fence, staring at me. The horse was at the hay feeder, eating the last tufts of hay she could find under it. I hope they can wait until the mighty Hunter comes back from his duck blind. I’m all out of bungee cords.

You know winter is not far off when certain events occur in Nature. The arrival of the most demanding season is foreshadowed by tamaracks shedding their golden coats and ice refusing to retreat from the surface of ponds. Its impending arrival is also heralded by the appearance of certain birds. The Bohemian Waxwing is one of these. Two species of waxwings frequent our area. Cedar Waxwings nest here while Bohemian Waxwings, which nest farther to the north and west, only make appearances in late fall and winter. Both species are sleek, crested birds slightly smaller than robins. Both sport black masks and have yellow tips to their tail, the latter one of their most distinctive marks. Although they are similar, both waxwings are relatively easy to tell apart. Cedars have yellow breasts and white under the tail where it meets the body. Bohemian Waxwings, which are slightly larger, have gray breasts and rusty red under-tail feathers. But the mark that readily separates the two is on their plain gray-brown wings, Cedar Waxwings bear a couple of red, waxy, namegiving adornments. In addition to red, Bohemians sport conspicuous white and yellow markings on their wings. In summer, waxwings eat insects, which are often caught in the air. However, once the fruit of trees and shrubs ripens, that food becomes their mainstay. In fact, waxwings are among the most fruit-dependent of all North American birds. They even nest late in summer so that their young can take advantage of fruit. Flocks form at summer’s end and continue through the winter. Cedar Waxwings usually head south before Bohemians make an appearance. However, sometimes Cedars stay for the winter while Bohemians occasionally fail to show up. In rare winters, both species can be found here, travelling in flocks and feeding on crab apples, ash keys, and mountain-ash and juniper berries. Although waxwings usually form flocks comprised of their own species, both types sometimes mingle. Flocking allows birds to spend more time processing food while remaining vigilant for danger. Singlespecies flocks form when food is found in large and localized quantities, such as berries on a tree, allowing competition between flock members to remain low. Waxwings must process a lot of food because berries, although high in sugar content, tend to be low in protein and

mouth opening, the gape, is extremely large to allow waxwings to swallow berries whole. Internally, the handling of food is also efficient, with short intestines provide for rapid processing. Seeds and pits are removed from the pulp and these are ejected only about 20 minutes after being ingested! You often hear waxwings before you see them. Their calls are soft trills, with those of Cedars being higher pitched and less raspy than those of Bohemians. Look for these graceful birds on trees covered in berries or apples. Hopefully they will remain here for the Boxing Day PakenhamArnprior Christmas Bird Count, details of which are soon to come. The Nature Number is 613-387-2503; email is mruntz@start.ca.

Knapp, Wheeler among Arnprior Unity Run winners EMC sports - It was a good day for the Arnprior Unity Run Oct. 27 and Phil Knapp especially. The Arnprior runner was the top finisher in the five-kilometer run with a time of 17:43.5. The Unity Run’s combined five events drew 185 runners and walkers. The day featured 10five- and three- kilometre runs, plus leisurely walks of five and three kilometres. 10-K RUN

The 10-kilometre run drew 54 runners, 29 women and 25 men, with Gatineau’s Mark Schindel, winning the event in about 35.43.2, well above the average time of 56.39.9.

Economic development site linked to County website Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

EMC news - The updated County of Renfrew economic development website is now linked directly to the County of Renfrew website. The link on www.countyofrenfrew.on.ca is via the economic development tab. A key component of the economic development website is the data and demographics information for each individual municipality and for the county as a whole. This data was assembled by

McSweeney and Associates (Ottawa) and Manifold Data Mining (Toronto) from Statistics Canada and Canadian Revenue Agency sources. The county pays an annual fee for data updates throughout the year. This data is intended to help municipalities obtain the most current statistical information for its community, for planning and promotional purposes. Brief descriptions of each Renfrew County municipality appear alongside its coat of arms or logo.

For Arnprior, the description reads: “Less than 30 minutes from Canada’s capital city, Ottawa, the Town of Arnprior is located where the Madawaska River meets the Ottawa River. The Town of Arnprior is ideal for vacationers and for people interested in small-town life. It is a great place to raise a family or to live a leisurely life of retirement. We have the best of both worlds, small town neighbors and close proximity to the city life offered in the region of Ottawa-Carleton.” As another municipal ex-

There is also a higher number of people with trade certificates than the national average.” The economic development website begins with the heading of Ottawa Valley Living and the subtext: “With nature at your doorstep and urban amenities close at hand, Ottawa Valley offers the perfect balance between work and play.” The website’s sections, to name a few, include maps, and information on services and business opportunities, the labour force, housing and health care, forestry and wood processing, transportation, media, and the commercial and industrial sector. Alastair Baird, manager of Renfrew County economic development, was scheduled to provide an overview on the new economic development website Oct. 31 before county council. However, a lengthy agenda forced postponement of that presentation until county council meets Nov. 28.

ample, McNab-Braeside’s reads: “The township fronts on the Ottawa River, has access to White Lake and is crossed by the Madawaska River. Residents enjoy waterfront cottages and homes. The eastern area of the township is about 30 minutes form the Corel Centre. There is a mixture of agricultural, residential, recreational development and some industrial, commercial and home based industries.” A sample from the website is the education section, which provides phone numbers and links to the websites of Algonquin College in the Ottawa Valley and the four publicly-funded school boards - Renfrew County District School Board, Renfrew County Catholic District School Board, Conseil des écoles catholiques de langue française du Centre-Est, and Conseil des écoles publiques de l’Est de l’Ontario. The site also provides a website and references the Our Lady Seat of Wisdom

EMC news - At the Nov. 28 session of Renfrew County council, three individuals or groups will be honoured with the first-ever Warden’s Community Service Awards. Approval of the annual awards came at a brief meeting of the property and development committee, just before county council’s monthly meeting Oct. 31. The initial cost will be about $2,500. This will cover the cost of individual plaques and a larger plaque, to be hung at the entrance to the county council chambers with the recipients’ names. The money will come from the economic development marketing budget. Development and property director Paul Moreau said the awards are a way to recognize businesses, not-for-profit groups and individuals for the contributions they make to Renfrew County, in improving the county’s quality of life. “It’s important to notice them and highlight what they’re doing within our community,” said Moreau. “It’s about time we started to recognize the good work that volunteer organizations, businesses and individuals do year in and year out in Renfrew County,” said Warden Bob Sweet.

“It’s a great opportunity to showcase that.” Sweet said the extent of contributions was highlighted during 2011’s Expo 150, which was the county’s 150th-anniversary celebrations. Also, Sweet said Renfrew County is sometimes a bit slow to recognize its own successes, and this is a chance to change that. THREE CATEGORIES

The three award categories will be for individuals, not-for-profit organizations and forprofit businesses. The selection review committee is comprised of the warden, one other member of county council and the chief administrative officer. Nominees must live in Renfrew County. The development and property committee report says the valuable contributions made to the community “are not limited to providing employment and creating wealth. Individuals, businesses and organizations also make important decisions and take real action regarding their social responsibility.” Due to limited time before this year’s presentations, the 2012 nominations will be made by Renfrew County elected officials and staff. However, in 2013, both the general public and elected officials will be able to make nominations in all three categories.

This year there is no music from the public address system because of other users in the school, but walkers are welcome to bring their only musical players.

End of CN Beachburg line expected Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

EMC news - One railway down, and one to go. Canadian Pacific’s railway line through Renfrew County is being closed down, with parts being sold or used elsewhere in the railway business. And the same could be happening to the Canadian National’s Beachburg subdivision through or near such local towns as Pembroke, Beachburg and Portage-du-Fort. For the last few years, a working group known as Transport Pontiac Renfrew, hoped to generate a business plan that would help Upper Ottawa Valley businesses (such as Trebio, the successor for the former Smurfit-Stone sawmill in Portage-du-Fort) and provide commuter traffic between the Upper Ottawa Valley and Ottawa. The federal Ministry of Transportation announced $136,000 of funding toward a feasibility study in December 2009. At that announcement in Portage-duFort, Pontiac MP Lawrence Cannon said the study would allow the government to “better plan transport solutions so that families benefit from quality infrastructure and the regional economy develops, particularly in tourism.” SLIM TO NONE

Chances of the line remaining in place for business of any sort are slim to none, suggests Louise Donaldson, a director with Transport Pontiac Renfrew. She’s convinced the federal government could have turned the situation around. The Ministry of Defence, she says, “should be playing a major role because of rail access and the importance of the rail to the military (at Canadian Forces Base Petawawa).” CN’s proposed discontinuance of the Beachburg line that runs 29.3 miles from Portage-du-Fort to a point near Pembroke, was initiated later this year, following CN’s indications in February 2010 that it planned to discontinue the line if it wasn’t sold. The asking price for the rail section between Portage-du-Fort and Pembroke is $12.1 million, an amount CN notes does

not exceed the net salvage value of the railway line. The cost of the lower end of line, which is 44.9 miles from Nepean to Portage-du-Fort, is $21.7 million. A good portion of that section runs through Ottawa councillor Eli El-Chantiry’s ward. The CN line’s future doesn’t look good, says El-Chantiry. “The problem we’re facing is shortsighted government, whether provincial or federal,” he said. Any government who doesn’t see the future of the track is obviously short-sighted.” However, if the section of the Beachburg line running through his ward doesn’t survive, he says the City of Ottawa needs to at least preserve the right-a-way of the rail line’s first 14 kilometres that start at the Walkley rail yard. For the higher end of the Beachburg

“I am expecting total government inaction again. I am particularly disgusted by the federal government’s inaction.” LOUISE DONALDSON TRANSPORT PONTIAC RENFREW.

subdivision, deadlines for the federal government to make an offer expired Oct. 22, 2012. The Quebec and Ontario ministry of transportation deadlines expire Nov. 21, 2012. Deadlines for Renfrew County, the Renfrew County municipalities of Whitewater Region, Laurentian Valley and the City of Pembroke, the Pontiac Region, Litchfield and Portage-du-Fort are Dec. 21, 2012. “Then CN will likely lift the railway for salvage,” says Donaldson. “Nobody has wanted to step up to the plate,” said Donaldson. “I am expecting total government inaction again. I am particularly disgusted by the federal government’s inaction.” UPPER SECTION OF BEACHBURG LINE

The final deadline for the lower portion of the Beachburg line, between Portagedu-Fort and Nepean, is Jan. 21, 2013.

One thing’s for sure. The County of Renfrew won’t be making a purchase offer on the line in its own backyard, and never suggested it would. Paul Moreau, Renfrew County’s director of development and property, said the county wants to see the railway stay, but that the county is not in the railway business, and not in position to buy such assets. “I can tell you,” said Renfrew County Warden Bob Sweet, “we don’t intend to buy it to run it as a railway. It’s not in our mandate, it’s not in our interest to do so, and we won’t be negotiating any options to operate it as a railway.” At least efforts have been made to keep the rail line alive, says Donaldson. We tried to get the charitable donation to work,” she said, alluding to participating municipalities’ who agreed to issue tax receipts to Canadian National if the land and rail assets were donated. “CN suggested we look at a charitable donation, which we investigated at great lengths. We knew the municipalities couldn’t afford it, but if they were supported by the federal government and both provincial governments, it could have worked.” But Revenue Canada turned down that proposal. “Apparently it didn’t meet the acid test of Revenue Canada,” said Sweet. Meanwhile, the clock is ticking. When it is suggested there aren’t any potential buyers for the Beachburg subdivision, Donaldson replies: “Private money, no. Several organizations have interesting ideas, but they involve somebody else’s money.” Donaldson emphasizes, however, that TPR isn’t done yet, as far as the Beachburg line is concerned. “We’re engaged in strategy on three fronts. I can’t talk about them, but the vision is now longer-term. We may have to shift the strategy and go back to baby steps. But the line isn’t done yet.” If the railway does leave Renfrew County and the Pontiac, Warden Sweet says that will absolutely add pressure for the need to expand the four-lane Highway 417 across the county. At this point, 417 has only extended a few kilometres past the Arnprior exit. And the next phase isn’t even part of Ontario’s next five-year capital plan.

We are seeking Community Feedback to help establish the Future Direction of ADMH, the Grove Nursing Home, Assisted Living Services, and our additional Programs and Services. Arnprior Regional Health is developing a new strategic plan to set the course of local health services for the next 5 years. The last plan served to guide the organization in making choices where investments needed to be made to ensure our community receives appropriate care as close to home as possible. As the board stated in its annual report to the public – “Arnprior Regional Health is now more than just a hospital!” Today’s healthcare environment is rapidly changing; our community is aging and growing. Responding to the needs of our community will require choices in the amount and types of services we offer. With today’s fiscal realities, we know we cannot be all things to all people. We are interested in hearing from you about the current and potentially new services Arnprior Regional Health should consider. We are interested in your feedback with respect to how we should provide these services, and how we can improve your experience when you receive care at Arnprior Regional Health. There are three ways for you to participate in this very exciting planning process. First, you may choose to complete an online survey on our web site (www.ArnpriorRegionalHealth.ca). This same survey may also be accessed via Survey Monkey http://www. surveymonkey.com/s/ARHCommunitySurvey2012 . The survey will take you about 10 minutes to complete; all responses are anonymous. Second, you may attend one of five community consultations across our service area, dates will be posted on our website and you may attend any session that suits your schedule. Third, you may be asked to participate in a focus group in the New Year which will be exploring specific topics. Your participation in helping to set the future direction of Arnprior Regional Health is most important for our community. The Board of Directors welcomes your input, and thanks you in advance for your participation.

,W¡V 1RW &RQWDJLRXV ,W¡V 1RW &RQWDJLRXV October 29 marked World Psoriasis Day. This is an annual day specifically dedicated to people suffering from psoriasis. Over 125 million people are affected world wide, with 1 million of them residing in Canada.

Psoriasis facts - Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. - Psoriasis has no known cause. - The tendency toward developing psoriasis is inherited in genes. - Psoriasis is not contagious.

Dr. Jason Sack (on the left ) with a family medicine resident, both are advocating that Psoriasis in not Contagious.

Dr. Jason Sack, a dermatologist at Arnprior Regional Health, advertised to his patients, many of them suffering from psoriasis, by wearing the bright orange shirt to help further raise awareness.

- Psoriasis gets better and worse spontaneously and can have periodic remissions (clear skin). -Psoriasis is controllable with medication.

- Psoriasis is currently not curable. “Psoriasis is not contagious. Although there is not cure, there are multiple effective treatments and a derma- - There are many promising therapies, tologist can help� Dr. Sack explains. While Dr. Sack is known as the “skin can- including newer biologic drugs. cer doctor� he treats many people in our area with psoriasis. - Future research for psoriasis is promising. Psoriasis is a noncontagious skin condition that produces red, dry plaques of thickened skin. The dry flakes and skin scales are thought to result from the rapid proliferation of skin cells that is triggered by abnormal lymphocytes from the blood. Psoriasis commonly affects the skin of the elbows, knees and scalp.

Psoriasis is considered a non-curable, long term (chronic) skin condition. It has a variable course, periodically improving and worsening. It in not unusual for psoriasis to spontaneously clear for years and stay in remission. Psoriasis is seen worldwide, in all race and both sexes. Although psoriasis can be seen in people of any age, from babies to seniors, most commonly patients are first diagnosed in their early adult years.

A referral from your family doctor is required to see Dr. Sack. 20 Arnprior Chronicle-Guide EMC - Thursday, November 15, 2012

TIMBER TENDERS

Eganville-area lumber mills fared well in six recent timber tenders to Renfrew County. The county awarded three tenders to Lavern Heideman & Sons, and another to M.W. Miller Logging, also of Eganville. Hokum & Son, of Killaloe, won two bids. All tracts were for red pine, except for an Opeongo Line mixed wood dominated

by poplar. The winning bids are listed in order of the successful bidder, amount, next closest bid, and the name of the tract: • Lavern Heideman, $23,875 ($21,400), Beachburg; • Lavern Heideman, $54,560 ($36,000), Byer’s Creek; • Lavern Heideman, $11,700 ($11,466), Sernoskie/Simpson’s Pit; • Hokum & Son, $39,600 ($24,880), Budd Mills; • Hokum & Son, $37,400 ($31,900), Indian River; • M.W. Miller, $34,149 ($33,600), Opeongo Line. “We got O.K. prices,â€? said Renfrew County forestry services manager Jeff Muzzi. “They’re reflective of the realities of the forest industry. Times are tough.â€? Seven companies offered one or more bids, including firms out of Wilno, Barry’s Bay, Palmer Rapids and Pembroke. Each year, 400 to 500 acres of the county forests are harvested. The county has 51 tracts spread over 16,000 acres. Typically, well-thinned red pine can be planted and forested within seven to 10 years, says Muzzi. Over the last seven years, Muzzi says the county’s price for red pine has wavered, with lower prices in 2007 and 2008, higher prices in 2009 and 2010 and somewhat more modest prices in 2011-12.

EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION

The County of Renfrew held its annual employee recognition and retirement banquet Oct. 25. A total of 77 employees received service awards for working 10 or more years. The employees come from human resources, development and property, social services, finance, public works, Miramichi Lodge (Pembroke) or Bonnechere Manor (Renfrew) Of the 77, two were recognized for 35 years of service and nine others for 30 years.

Following record-low rainfall this summer in Eastern Canada, HayEast 2012, an industry-led initiative, was created by farm organizations across Canada to help send hay to farmers in Ontario and Quebec. HayEast is modeled on the HayWest program that saw thousands of Eastern Canadian farmers send hay to Western Canada in 2002. Donations of hay or financial support may be made online at www.hayeast2012.com/ have-hay. Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant raised the issue in the House of Commons Monday. The funding builds on an earlier

told the House. “Hay East 2012, a farmer and farm organization-led initiative, was created by western farm organizations that remember when eastern farmers sent hay west in 2002. We applaud the efforts of farmers, like Hay West organizer Wyatt McWilliams, for helping farmers today. “I am proud to say that the

federal government, in partnership with Hay East and other levels of government, is providing $3 million to help transport hay to those farmers in need. The rural Ontario Conservative caucus continues to stand up for farmers everywhere, assessing the needs of these provinces and considering every option under existing programs.

EMC news – As the rain poured down on Oct. 31, the hay being off loaded was like a ray of sunshine for Lori McRae and Warren Leach. They have owned their 104-acre farm since 2006 and currently have 40 head of beef cattle. This year due to the level two droughts they are short to feed their herd over the winter. The hay shipment that arrived at their farm, just outside of Almonte, included 29 bales of hay, one short of the 30 bales that was expected to arrive. Livestock producers in Lanark lack sufficient feed for their animals in the wake of this summer’s prolonged drought. Hay normally used to feed them during the winter has already been used up. Plans are in place to bring hay for the winter from western Canada through a project initiated by the Saskatchewan Unit of the Mennonite Disaster Service. A shipment of hay from the west was delivered to a farm near Cobden on Oct. 17 and is being transported to individual farms. As the hay arrived McRae became quite emotional. “It makes me want to cry, we are so grateful,” she said. Leach was quite happy to receive the hay as it will help them. By how much, is yet to be determined. “It will be close,” said McRae. “If we have to, we will reduce (liquidate) part of our herd.” The hay bales received from the Saskatoon area were donated. They are twice the size of a normal bale of hay they have in Ontario. “I guess that’s what kind of bales they use out west,” said McRae.

Unfortunately, as they were loading the first bales off, the sphere of Leach’s tractor broke. They had to bring in the neighbours to help. Both Jimmy Timms and Al Lowry came to help with the unloading. They applied for the aid Sept. 29. They were the first farmers in Lanark County to receive a load of hay in a lottery system administrated by the Ontario Federation of Agriculture. McRae explained they are short 40 tonnes of hay or 100 5-by-4 round bales. “Our fields were down this year,” said McRae. “We usually get 110 bales and this year we only got 73.” She thinks it is awesome that the West-

ern farmers are sending hay to their eastern counterparts and is extremely grateful. “I would like to know where it is coming from so I can personally thank them,” said McRae. Debra Pretty-Straathof from Arnprior, the vice-president of Ontario Federation

of Agriculture, thinks the hay arriving in Almonte is fantastic. “It is one of the best examples of Canadian farmers helping each other out,” said Pretty-Straathof. “It is a much appreciated gesture of goodwill.” Brian Hamilton, Ontario Federation of Agricultural member’s services representative for the Renfrew-Lanark area, has been helping co-ordinate the hay to farmers in need for the Hay East 2012 effort. He knows it is local and national volunteers who are making a difference to help those in need. “I am really happy that they were winners of the first draw for hay in Lanark County and more hay will help the cause,” said Hamilton. As Hamilton stood under cover of the rain pouring down, he reflected on McRae and Leach’s farm. “I see nice beef cattle and we want to help feed as much livestock as we can,” he said Hamilton. “This area (Lanark County) and Renfrew County is the worst hit in the province. There were 19 droughts across the province this summer,” explained PrettyStraathof. Hay prices have sky rocketed and Pretty-Straathof notes it is supply and demand. Usually it costs $30 for a bale of hay and this year it costs almost $100 for the same. “It doesn’t make economic sense to feed anything, particularly beef cattle $100 bales of hay,” said Hamilton. The farmers who are receiving the hay are being asked to pay three cents per pound to help off set the transportation cost for the next load of hay. “That’s a huge savings for us,” said McRae.

Redmen win again, to host bowl game this Friday EMC sports – The Arnprior Redmen senior boys football team dodged a bullet as they moved along the road toward another provincial championship Nov. 9. The Redmen scored a touchdown in the final minute of the game to win 24-21 and break the hearts of the La Salle Black Knights in a senior high school AA National Capital football quarterfinal at the Kingston area school. Arnprior’s hopes for a comeback appeared to be dashed when LaSalle intercepted a Redmen pass with about three minutes left leaving them behind 21-16. However, the ADHS defense held strong and forced LaSalle to punt. The Redmen then drove from midfield to score the winning touchdown. They added a two-point convert to make the final cushion three points. The win means the Redmen will host the Gananoque Trojans in a semi-final bout set for this Friday, Nov. 16 at ADHS’ Oattes Field at 1 p.m. ADHS, which was playing its third game in a week, took a 14-13 lead at the half against LaSalle. After the Black Knights went up 21-14, the Redman earned a safety with about five minutes left to make the score 21-16. That set up the last minute heroics. After going ahead, the Arnprior again stymied the LaSalle attack and the Redmen were able to run out the clock. The Redmen won the Lanark-Renfrew Senior. football championship for the third year in a row by trampling St. John’s 42-17 in Perth Nov. 6.

Andrews stars in Queen’s football playoff run John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC sports – Former Arnprior District High School football star running back Jesse Andrews finally got some significant playing time with Queen’s University during the playoffs, and he made the best of it. Andrews rushed for 135 yards in his first university ca-

reer start, as the number-sixranked Queen’s Gaels blanked Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks 34-0 in a quarter-final playoff game Oct. 27. The next weekend (Nov. 3), Andrews, in a semi-final game against the Guelph Gryphons, rushed for 117 yards and scored two touchdowns on 27 carriers. However, a stunning Guelph comeback overcame a Queen’s 36-14 lead and gave

the Gryphons a 42-39 overtime win and a berth in Yates Cup against McMaster. While it was a disappointing finish for Queen’s fans, including the Andrews family who travelled from McNabBraeside to Guelph for the game, the performance of the ADHS graduate was an eyeopener. Andrews, a graduate of the West Carleton Wolverines

football program, played a key role in ADHS’ provincial championship two years ago, churning up yardage as the team went undefeated. His brother, Nathan, quarterbacked ADHS to the LanarkRenfrew high school football championship Nov. 6. Jesse Andrews, who is in second-year civil engineering at the university, got a chance to start in the playoffs because

Habs scout visits St. Joseph’s hockey academy Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

EMC sports - Montreal Canadiens head scout Trevor Timmins was a guest of the St. Joseph’s Catholic High School hockey academy Oct. 30. The Pakenham native formerly worked with the Ottawa Senators, and has been a part of the National Hockey League scene since 1992. He played hockey in the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League with the Arnprior Packers and attended Queen’s University. Timmins gave a brief description of what scouts look for in a player; specifically identifying potential assets in young players. Talent is one of the assets that scouts look for. “Talent involves a combina-

tion of hockey sense, skating, and hands,” Timmins said. “It’s not necessarily a given, as intangibles work alongside with talent. Intangibles are what scouts say make a player stand out: things such as character, competitiveness, size and strength,” he said. “To show good character, a player must show good leadership skills, maintain a team first attitude, and remain a person of good character,” Timmins explained. Drive, determination and aggressiveness are also important, he said. Size and strength is something that Timmins says is not controllable, but whether a player uses these attributes to his advantage is. “All of these factors are important when scouting players,” Timmins added. He gave the students a

glimpse of the busy schedule of a scout. He showed his calendar for the month of October. Scouts are sent all over the globe to watch players that hold potential. Not only is it necessary to view all these players once, but usually numerous times to see the player’s consistency, he said. Keeping reports of these athletes is another critical part of the job, Timmins said at the academy. He said perseverance, selfdiscipline, motivation and a clear vision are important, whether you be an elite athlete, or in any other walk of life. He advised players to work hard and further their education as much as possible, and not forget to do the extras. “These skills will ensure success wherever one applies

However Lahoux, Steege and Patrick connected almost before fans had settled back into their seats to start the final stanza. Despite Arnprior having several more chances, it remained 5-4 right up until the final seconds when a Jeremie Gauthier power-play goal iced the 6-4 win for Clarence Creek. Gauthier and Nicolas Brazeau paced the Beavers triumph with two goals apiece. The same two goaltenders were back at it with Newport’s 27-save effort earning him the win. A busy Lamothe faced 53 Clarence shots. Steege passed the 20-goal mark and has 21 goals and 17 assists, good for third place in

the scoring race behind Gatineau’s Dominik Robinson and Perth’s Brett Madigan. The Packers are in Shawville to take on the Pontiac Juniors this Friday at 8 p.m. They return home to the Nick Smith Centre for a 7:30 p.m. encounter Sunday, Nov. 18 versus the Perth Blue Wings. That is a key mid-season game as the Packers (9-80-and-1) trail the first-place Blue Wings by two points in the Valley Division standings. Arnprior and the Renfrew Timberwolves share second spot in the tight race. Last year, the Packers were also in second place behind Perth at this point in the season. They then went on a tear and won the Valley Division title.

Support Share a Gift at Sunday’s game Arnprior Jr. B Packers fans have a chance to support a great cause and see some great hockey this Sunday at 7:30 p.m. when Arnprior takes on the Perth Blue Wings at the Nick Smith Centre. All proceeds from the game will go to Share A Gift, an orga-

The champions include, in front from left, Melissa Logan, Shannon Power, Alexis Lough and Bryanna Desarmia; and in back coach Phil Moore, Melissa Kargus, Sam Caesar, Stephanie Hicks, Tasha Zoryk, Shawna Burnette and assistant coach Gord Sadler. The team is off to the EOSSA championship Thursday and Friday of this week at LaSalle near Kingston. ADHS finished the regular season at 9-0 and defeated St. Joseph’s 43-25 in the semi-final game Nov. 6 in Arnprior. Winning the Renfrew County title means ADHS hosts the league’s senior girls basket-

EMC sports – Victorious again. The Arnprior District High School senior girls basketball team successfully defended their Upper Ottawa Valley title Nov. 8, with a 49-34 win over Opeongo. The Redmen try to extend their season by trying for an Ontario championship tournament berth when they go up against the best AA senior basketball teams in Eastern Ontario at EOSSAA today (Thursday) and Friday at LaSalle near Kingston. The team, which finished the regular season 9-0, wasn’t as sharp as it normally was in the first half for the UOV title game at ADHS. However, a 32-27 lead early in the second half quickly grew to 39-29. Ahead 42-32 after three quarters, ADHS shut down Opeongo in the final quarter to win by 15 points. While the coaches said the team would have to tighten up substantially to win at EOSSAA, they were happy that the team didn’t crumble under strong Opeongo pressure. Shannon Power scored 27 of the team’s 49 points and had an “unbelievable game,” said head coach Phil Moore. Captain Alexis Lough added 10 points for Arnprior.

ADHS junior hoopsters capture UOV title John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC sports – The Arnprior District High School junior girls basketball team joined their senior girl counterparts in winning an Upper Ottawa Valley high school title last week. The Redmen trounced St. Joseph’s High School 49-14 in Arnprior to cap an undefeated season. The Redmen led 29-14 near the end of the third quarter and poured it on in the final quarter to run away with the contest. Emma Shoveller, as she has done all year, and Hillary Scott led Arnprior in scoring wit 14 and eight points respectively. Seven players hit the scoresheet as the Redmen threw a balanced attack at their opponents. The win took away, for some of the players, the sting of losing by three points to Opeongo in last year’s final. ADHS finished the regular season at 9-0 and defeated Madawaska Valley 56-27 in the semi-final Nov. 6, as Shoveller scored 10 points and Keisha Clark added eight. The victory puts the team into the Eastern Ontario junior AA high school basketball championship tournament. EOSSAA was scheduled to be held in Sydenham, near Kingston, Wednesday (after press deadline). Winning the Renfrew County title also means ADHS hosts the league’s annual all-star game, set for Nov. 28 at 5:30 p.m. JOHN CARTER/METROLAND

Clockwise, from top: Emma Pettigrew takes a pass and Paula Meek blocks out an opponent as the ADHS players get in position for a shot at the St. Joe’s basketball game; champions include, in front from left, Dan Lavallee (coach), Paula Meek, Hannah Scott, Grace Barr, Lauren Hass, Andrew McAulay (assistant coach) and in back, Mikaela Appleby-Lanoue, Keisha Clark, Emma Pettigrew, Logan Kenny, Abby Rampton, Shauna McNulty, Megan McGrath, Emma Shoveller and Mike Shoveller (assistant) and lastly, ADHS’s Abby Rampton is surrounded by St. Joe’s players as she tries to find a teammate open.

Mary’s list of chores part of routine household duties EMC lifestyle - There was a price to pay for being the youngest in the family. I was given, I thought, more than my share of chores, all because Mother thought they were easy jobs and ones I could handle. All because I was the smallest of the five children, but also the youngest. It was my chore to keep the wood box in the kitchen filled. It was a job I hated, because never once did I carry in the wood from the summer kitchen that I didn’t end up with splinters in my hands and often in my arms. But Mother thought it was an easy chore and one of which I was quite capable of handling. Another job that fell on my shoulders was making sure the water under the ice box, accumulated in a white granite basin, was emptied. Only once I remember forgetting about it, and having it overflow all over the kitchen floor. That meant I had to get down on my hands and knees and mop the entire kitchen floor. I never forgot to check the basin for melted ice after that. Making the toast for breakfast was another job Mother thought I was quite capable of handling. Of course, there was no electricity on the farm

Mary Cook’s Memories BY MARY COOK

back then, so a wire rack was placed over the fire in the Findlay Oval. It held four slices of bread and I couldn’t take my eyes off it for a second or the toast would burn. The penalty for this error in judgment was my having to eat the burnt toast. The fact that my hateful brother Emerson did everything in his power to have me burn the bread, had me so nervous, I was a complete wreck by the time everyone had their toast. As soon as I got home from school, and had changed into my play clothes, I was also expected to go out to the hen house and gather the eggs. I used a wicker basket and had to be very careful to handle the eggs carefully, because many of them would be sold in Renfrew on the Saturday. Large eggs sold for 15 cents a dozen, but if they were cracked, you were lucky to get a nickel.

My sister Audrey, older than I by about 11 years, often didn’t use the basket. Like Mother, Audrey would bunch up the bottom of her apron and carry the eggs that way. And never once do I ever remember her cracking an egg. I tried it one day with my apron, but with disastrous results. I had to go out behind the hen house and get rid of the ones I managed to break before Mother saw what I had done. It was back to the basket for me! There was a job, however, I felt very privileged to be given. After the milking was done at night, the milk was moved by stone boat, in big milk cans, into the summer kitchen. It was my job to place a square of clean cheese cloth over each can and then sink on the lids tightly. I could never figure out why we used the cheese cloth, but it was a necessary part of the job.

The next morning, before my chore with the toast began, I would take the big brown baking bowl and the little tin strainer out to the summer kitchen to one of the milk cans. Using the strainer, I would skim off the cream that would settle over the night to the top, and put it into the bowl, so that everyone would have a helping of rich cream for their porridge. I liked this job because Mother and I had a ritual that never varied all the time we lived on the farm in Renfrew County. I would bring the bowl of cream into the kitchen and say to Mother, as I did every morning, “A miracle happened overnight, Mother. Last night that milk was white, and this morning it is the colour of gold. It’s a miracle Mother.” And I would wait for the answer that never varied. “It’s not a miracle Mary … that’s just good old-fashioned Renfrew County magic.” We would both laugh, never tiring of the ritual that went on day after day, every morning of my life as the youngest in the family, on that farm in Northcote.

Rotarians back disabled hiring effort

80 ELGIN ST. W, ARNPRIOR

EMC events - The County of Renfrew and Rotary Club of Renfrew will host a special speech and dinner at Rotary Hall in the Bonnechere Manor Thursday, Nov. 22. Mark Wafer, a Rotarian and successful businessman, will visit the Valley to tell his workplace story of how he employs a number of individuals with disabilities throughout his six stores in the Whitby and Oshawa area. The purpose of the dinner is to share his experience with fellow business owners, and help break down the stereotypes and misconceptions of hiring people with disabilities. All proceeds from the dinner will go to the Bonnechere Manor Foundation. Wafer himself has a hearing disability, but that has never gotten in the way of him building a series of successful businesses over the last 20 years. To date he has hired 82 people with disabilities, including 33 now in his workforce of 210 spread over six locations. As Wafer points out, there is tremendous opportunity for both employers and the disabled. Together with Joe Dale of Rotary International, he created a program called Rotary at Work to convince employers that the disabled can become an important part of the workforce “The

result since 2009 is huge,” he says. “One-hundred and thirty-seven people with a disability hired in meaningful positions. No charity. “That means competitive salaries. This includes every department from managers to front-line staff, production and logistics.” One of the compelling aspects of Wafer’s experience is from his role as a business owner. “Many employers think people with disabilities are going to get hurt on the job or not work diligently. This is simply not true,” he says. “As employers we have never had a WSIB claim on any of our disabled employees, and while the average tenure for most of my employees is 1.3 years, it is seven years for my employees with a disability. Educating employers on those benefits is the most important thing that we can do.” The cost for the dinner and speech is $25. Preregistration is available for the event, and a receipt can be issued. To order a ticket, contact Jacqui Phillips at the Bonnechere Manor Foundation at 613-432-4873, ext. 1253 or jphillips@county ofrenfrew.ca.

Musicians rosin up bows at fall Heritage Radio fiddle party Lucy Hass Lucy.hass@metroland.com

EMC events - Fiddle fans from Douglas and Beachburg to Arnprior and Ottawa enjoyed an evening of some of the region’s finest fiddle music Oct. 20, thanks to the Kinburn

Community Association. The association placed the highest bid when a group of local musicians put their services up for auction on Ottawa Valley Heritage Radio 98.7. The auction was part of the community radio station’s annual

fundraising telethon earlier this year. Renfrew fiddler Dennis Harrington said the idea was borrowed from the musical duo Bahoo and The Brat who tried a similar project. “I give every credit to Bahoo and The Brat,” said Har-

rington. “They had the idea.” Bidding on the fiddlers’ time and talent started at $300 and just kept rising. Harrington thought the auction might raise up to $500 but actually hit $2,000 when the Kinburn Community Associa-

tion placed its bid for a fourhour fall fiddle party. “There are no better people than the musicians in the Ottawa Valley,” Harrington said during a recent interview with Dai Bassett on Valley Heritage radio just days before

the event. “I never dreamed it would bring in $2,000,” he told Bassett. Harrington has a regular show on the popular community radio station – CrossCanada Fiddling every Sunday from 1 to 2 p.m.

Valley woman promotes breastfeeding workshop, support groups EMC lifestyle -Julie Keon, an area childbirth educator and certified breastfeeding counselor says she is continuously amazed at the tremendous amount of misinformation surrounding breastfeeding that new mothers encounter. The misinformation comes from the Internet, from wellmeaning family/ friends and from the professionals who care for the mother in pregnancy and new postpartum, she says. Keon recently created Renfrew County Breastfeeding as a platform to offer two surefire ways to increase the success rate of breastfeeding for all mothers in Renfrew County who choose to do so. Her aim is to improve the rates by providing practical education as well as ongoing support. It is her mission to diminish the “myths and inconsistency of information” that interrupts and complicates breastfeeding for new mothers. The two-part solution involves a workshop called Breastfeeding 101 that expectant mothers can attend in their last trimester to learn the basics/ mechanics of lactation. Each participant will leave with a greater understanding of breastfeeding and how it works, with tips on how to keep it simple as opposed to complicated and when to ask for help.

The workshop will be offered on a by donation basis (to cover costs). All health professionals who regularly see expectant and new mothers and wish to have a refresher or review of lactation basics are welcome. The ultimate goal is that the advice that health care providers share is consistent and made up of the most up-todate, evidence-based information. RESOURCE LIST

The workshop will be offered every two months with the first three scheduled for Dec. 8, Feb. 2 and April 13. Mothers will also receive an extensive resource list of where to find help in their communities. The second part of the plan is to offer weekly Breastfeeding Mothers Groups all over Renfrew County so mothers have a place to receive free advice/ tips by a facilitator and support by other breastfeeding mothers. Social support is critical for successful breastfeeding, Keon notes. There are already groups started in Cobden and Petawawa, with others expected to begin in the new year. For more information, visit Renfrew County Breastfeeding on Facebook or contact Keon at julie@mncs.ca or at 613-646-9912.

Galilee Centre to host young performers Nov. 22 EMC events - In a unique twinning of historic and contemporary themes, Galilee Centre is teaming up with Arnprior’s Main Street School of Music to host talented local musicians in the first of a series of planned concerts. On Thursday, Nov. 22 at 7 p.m., rising young vocalists, Jeanika Benoit and Sarah Lyn Kidney, will perform at the historic retreat centre of Galilee, backed by some of the skilled musicians who instruct and study at Main Street School of Music. All are welcome. The music school and the retreat centre are thrilled to combine this opportunity for local artists to be heard and appreciated with the chance to visit Galilee, and support its continuation as a hospitable haven for retreats, gatherings, recreation and community action. Kidney, a 15-year-old high school student, is already

an accomplished performer and the recipient of the Main Street Scholarship for 2010. She recently sang the national anthem for the opening Ottawa 67’s game, and says that “singing in front of thousands of hockey fans at Scotiabank Place was an amazing experience, but to be able to showcase my talents in front of people I see every day in a smaller, more intimate setting like Galilee means a lot to me. It’s a wonderful opportunity.” Benoit, 12, has been a student of Main Street School of Music since she was 7 and is a remarkably seasoned performer, with many local fairs and three Canada Day shows to her credit. “I’m thrilled to have the chance to work and perform with Sarah because she’s an amazing singer.” says Benoit. “I’m also looking forward to seeing all the people who come to the show. I hope they’ll enjoy the music that

Tourism key economic driver for area Lauren McIllfaterick Ottawa Valley Travel Association

EMC lifestyle - Tourism is big business in the Ottawa Valley. It is also an important job creator for Renfrew County, directly employing about 4,400 people, and helping another 7,000 find employment in related businesses. The vast majority of these jobs are in small and medium-sized, family-owned enterprises. As tourism grows, so does the number of jobs available. Each dollar spent in Renfrew County circulates five times, making the impact of tourism invaluable to the Ottawa Valley. In 2009, 116 million tourism dollars were spent in Renfrew County. That much circulated five times means that $580 million was

pumped into local economies. Visitors spend their money on accommodations, transportation, retail shops, restaurants, grocery stores, attractions, events and entertainment. In turn, these businesses spend their money on wages and salaries and supplies from other local businesses. As well, they contribute significantly to municipal tax revenues and support local festivals, cultural groups, museums, farmers’ markets and recreation facilities. Tourism is not just big business in Renfrew County. It is big business across the country. In 2010, tourism was responsible for $73.4 billion in revenues and represented about 2 per cent of Canada’s overall gross domestic product (GDP). Tourism contributed more to Canada’s econ-

omy than the agriculture, forestry and fishing industry combined. In Ontario, tourism as an industry contributed more to the provincial GDP than the entire primary sector, including forestry and mining. The County of Renfrew recognized the importance of tourism to the local economy back in 1976 when it formed one of the first public/private partnerships in Ontario with the creation of the Renfrew County Travel Association – now known as the Ottawa Valley Tourist Association (OVTA). The OVTA is a not-for-profit membership based organization and is the official Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) of the Ottawa Valley. The OVTA’s mandate is to promote, stimulate and support Ottawa Valley tourism through the establishment of strategic

and co-operative partnerships with members and key stakeholders. In a nutshell, the OVTA markets the Ottawa Valley as a destination. The OVTA is like a salesperson for all of the Ottawa Valley’s tourism operators and all the businesses that cater to tourists. The OVTA tells the world how special the Ottawa Valley is and why tourists should and come see it for themselves. The OVTA brings together public and private dollars to market the Ottawa Valley brand to a far wider market than any individual business or municipality could do on their own. Pioneers of the OVTA recognized that time, effort and money would be better spent working together towards the common goal of bringing tourists to Renfrew County rather than competing with each other. There is strength in numbers. By themselves, many local businesses would find such marketing too expensive and beyond their means.

Lynne Zander wins Toastmasters contests

Among those taking part in Area 10 humourous speech and evaluation contests, from left, are Carol Byce, chair of humorous contest and member of Arnprior club; Ed Nicholson, humorous contest second-place winner representing Chalk River Labs Toastmasters; Lynne Kobus, humorous contest third-place winner representing Renfrew Toastmasters; Brad Dota, humorous contest contestant representing Arnprior Toastmasters club; Lenore Whelan, evaluation contest second-place winner representing Arnprior Toastmasters club; Genevieve Hamilton, evaluation contest third-place winner representing Chalk River Labs Toastmasters; Lynne Zander, humorous and evaluation contest first-place winner representing Valley Vintage Advanced Toastmasters Club; and Maureen Whittaker, chair of evaluation contest and a member of Valley Vintage Advanced club.

Arnprior resident earns top honours in Area 10 humourous speech and evaluation contests EMC lifestyle – Lynne Zander of Arnprior won both humourous speech and evaluation contests in an Area 10 Toastmasters competition in Douglas Sept. 29.

She represented the area at the next level up, the Division B contest on Oct.13 in the Overbrook Community Centre in Ottawa. The winners of Division B is slated to go to

the Fall Conference in Kingston Nov. 16-18. Area 10 covers the five Toastmasters clubs in the area from Deep River to Arnprior.

Toastmasters is a voluntary self-help organization to help its members become better public speakers and leaders. Along the way members

also become better listeners and have a lot of fun with their Toastmaster friends. The humorous speech contest is a great example of that fun and challenges of creating

and presenting speeches. The evaluation contest challenges the ability to provide effective yet friendly feedback to members when they make speeches.

Develop leadership and communication skills with Toastmasters EMC lifestyle – What is the most important ingredient for success and achievement in today’s workplace? That’s right, the ability to communicate skilfully and confidently with people, says Toastmasters. Club officials maintain excellent interpersonal communication skills are the most potent career and personal skills a person can possess. If you are looking for an

economical way to improve presentation skills and the communication skills of staff, Toastmasters could be for you. Human resources professionals estimate more than 80 per cent of the people who fail at their jobs do so for one reason – they don’t relate well to other people. Recent research shows that, even in highly technical jobs, success or failure is deter-

mined more by human relations skills than by technical proficiency. CAREER SUCCESS

Powerful communication skills can propel people along the path to career success and personal achievement. They can lead to promotions, to working more effectively with the boss and co-workers, to building better

ly. You will be able to improve prospects for career and financial success. You will sharpen leadership skills and will project a more confident, more polished and more professional image. EIGHTY-EIGHT YEARS OLD

Follow your dreams, says five-time Paralympian Lucy Hass lucy.hass@metroland.com

EMC lifestyle - Todd Nicholson knows all about following dreams. Ever since he was young, he dreamed of playing hockey, and that’s exactly what he did, despite being in a wheelchair. The five-time Winter Paralympian was keynote speaker at the 2012 Women’s Health Festival in Renfrew where he challenged the women to follow their dreams and help others along the way. The Dunrobin resident and Arnprior District High School graduate, is the proud owner of three medals from the Paralympics – gold from Torino, Italy; silver from Nagano, Japan; and bronze from Lillehammer. Nicholson, who grew up on a farm in Kinburn, described himself as a kid who had the opportunity to do a lot, thanks to parents who encouraged him to play sports. Now he shares that encouragement with others, spreading the message to “never give up on your dreams, and push the people around you to do more, to want more, to achieve more.” “Believe in yourself and the things you think you are capable of doing,” he says. And if there’s something you want to do but think you can’t, find the people who can help you achieve your goals.” Nicholson was returning from his high school prom when he was involved in a car accident “and that was what changed my life forever.” But in ways the 18-year-old high school student could never imagine. “I can honestly say that I have done more with my life than I ever would have,” he said. Because when he was a kid, he dreamed of playing hockey in the NHL. “Was I good enough? No. Not even close. But I still had that dream in my head that I wanted to play sports and I wanted to achieve those goals and dreams I’d set for myself,” he said. After the accident, his parents advised him to keep chasing his dreams. “Don’t ever give up on your dreams,” Nich-

olson said. “There is someone out there that will help you get to the next level; will help you achieve those goals. You just need to find them.” Nicholson found those people and they led him to sledge hockey and the international stage. Even when a major infection and series of surgeries threatened his very life prior to the 2006 Paralympics in Torino, his doctor in Hawkesbury found a Toronto physician that helped him manage his condition so he could compete. And a big part of his desire to play in Torino came in two garbage bags his parents delivered. They were filled with get well-wishes from students urging him to never give up. “For me, that was the push I needed to go.” That was in November. Then from Jan. 2 to the end of the Paralympic Games, Nicholson never missed a game or practice. He also carried the Canadian flag in the opening ceremonies. After Torino, Nicholson didn’t know if he was prepared to go another four years to prepare for Vancouver, but didn’t take long to realize his was a dream he wanted to finish at home. “I wasn’t there to win a medal. I wasn’t there to do anything other than to go and compete and do the best I possibly could. Unfortunately, Canada wasn’t successful on the ice in Vancouver. But we were very successful off the ice. During his presentation at St. Joseph’s Catholic High School, Nicholson proudly displayed the Team Canada jersey he earned after his first sledge hockey tryouts, as well as all three Paralympic medals and his sledge and racing chair he uses for triathlon. “Anything you do, I can do. I just have to do it a little bit differently,” he said, noting how the Paralympic Games in Nagano, Japan seemed to signal a greater social acceptance of people with disabilities. It’s a change that continues to evolve as society breaks down the barriers associated with disability. World travel and exposure to competition

And even when a medal does not lie at the end of the journey – as was the case in Salt Lake City – Nicholson learned there was still great joy in the effort. “I followed my dreams and surrounded myself with people who pushed me,” he said. “I can guarantee everybody in this room that, at some point in your life, you are going to have obstacles put in your way that you’re not sure how to get over,” he said.

matically and saw how people with disabilities can still contribute. Nicholson, for example, sky dives, scuba dives and plays sports like basketball, baseball and golf. He has lived his life from Games to Games, always planning for the next four years and grateful for the chance to be one of only 700 winter Paralympians worldwide. Now retired, his key mission is to encourage others on the athletes’ council of the Paralympic committee that represents athletes around the world. “The sky’s the limit to what you’re capable of doing,” he says and encourages people to get involved in their community, and to help others to, perhaps, “get from the playground to the podium. “The podium could be on the international stage or the podium could at your carnival, at any event all. “I want you to push yourself. I want you to push the people around you, to do more; to be active. “You never know how good you’re going to be at something until you try,” he says.

In loving memory of a wonderful grandmother and great grandmother

Nov 19, 2010

The moment that you died, My heart split in two, The one side ďŹ lled with memories, The other died with you. I often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep, And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon my cheek, Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, But missing you is a heartache, That never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart, And there you will remain, Life has gone on without you, But it will never be the same. For those who still have their mother, Treat her with tender care, You will never know the emptiness, When you turn and she’s not there.

School, community supports Grade 5 student’s CHEO project Maximilian Moore Co-op student

EMC lifestyle - Darby MacAdam, a Grade 5 student at St. Joseph’s Catholic School in Arnprior, has authored her first ever fundraiser for CHEO, her place of residence in late June 2012 during her appendix removal. The fundraiser will take place the final week of this month, Nov. 26-30, in the form of a Penny War; a struggle between each student to see who can bring in the most pennies from home. From grades one to eight, classes at her school will be competing for the grand prize: individual awards for each student from the Royal Canadian Mint itself. The details of the prize have so far been kept secret, but the winning class of the Penny War will definitely be in for a surprise. “Mom, I just want to raise some money for the kids in there,” is how Darby introduced the idea to her mother, Dawn MacAdam, who’s supported her throughout the entire process. The Canadian penny will soon be taking leave from Canada’s currency, so it’s only appropriate if these copperheads go out with a bang — for a cause important to us all: the health and well-being of our children everywhere. Darby asked the communi-

MPP sporting a ‘stash EMC lifestyle – It’s Movember and once again thousands of men are growing moustaches to raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and male mental health initiatives. Again this year, RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski is taking part in this important fundraiser. For the rest of this month, Yakabuski and other selfless and generous men, known as Mo Bros, will grow, groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of fine moustachery. Donations can be made to

MPP Yakabuski s Movember Canada campaign online, or you can reference John Yakabuski and registration # 2408074 and send it to: Movember Canada, 119 Spadina Avenue, PO Box 65, Toronto, ON M5T 2T2. According to Prostate Cancer Canada, one in seven men will be diagnosed with a form of prostate cancer, making it the most common cancer among Canadian men. One out of five Canadians will experience a mental illness in their lifetime and the remaining four will have a family member or colleague who will.

“Everyday I run in to people who have lost a loved one to prostate cancer or are suffering from this disease themselves and people with mental health issues have too long kept their illness under wraps because of the myths and misconceptions,” said Yakabuski. “Movember sparks conversation and helps spread awareness of men’s health issues and I am proud to be part of this important campaign.” Working together we can increase the chances of early detection, diagnosis and effective treatment, he said.

Musicians with Moustaches this Friday MAXIMILIAN MOORE/CO-OP

Darby MacAdam, a Grade 5 student at St. Joseph’s Catholic School in Arnprior, has incited a Penny War in support of CHEO. ty to participate for the fundraiser, and Reid Bros. stepped up almost immediately. A whopping 10,000 pennies were donated to young MacAdam and her initiative to kick off the event. The Gallery Gift Shop, Essencia Spa and Yoga, and Dawn till Dusk Studio will also be donating their thousands of pennies to the event. CHEO’s response to Darby and her fabulous initiative was to at first acknowledge her am-

bition at the humble age of 10, and thank her profusely. They even gave her a t-shirt! If you’d like to participate in the fundraiser for CHEO – for the kids sicker than Darby was, inflicted with life changing illnesses and fatal conditions – you can give your soon-to-be obsolete pennies to Dawn MacAdam, Darby’s mother at 613-793-4353, or bring them directly to the Gallery Gift Shop and Reid Bros. in Arnprior.

MP introduces private bill to help disabled sumer alert,” she said. “I wanted constituents to know they can access their federal Member of Parliament regarding any federal tax credit without being charged a percentage of the tax credit,” added Gallant. “Changes were put in place in 2005 that made benefits receivable on a retroactive basis. This change created a new incentive for those claiming to be consultants to work with Canadians on their claims. Unfortunately, without regulation in this area, some Canadians have been charged 20, 30, even 40 per cent of eligible payments for the services of these consultants. Often the only work involved is the completion of a two-page form,” said Gallant. R0011721697_1108

EMC news - Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant introduced a Private Member’s Bill in the House of Commons Nov. 5 to restrict fees charged to disabled Canadians by third party consultants to complete the form to receive the disability tax credit. Bill C-462 is an act restricting charges by promoters of the disability tax credit. It also makes amendments to the Tax Court of Canada Act. “My decision to introduce legislation restricting the fees charged by promoters of the federal government’s disability tax credit is the direct result of the aggressive tactics employed by one such promoter from the Toronto area who objected to my decision to issue a con-
