JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Warkworth - Being told they will have to give inmates who use drugs clean needles beginning next year isn't the only thing that's bothering correctional officers these days. Legislation tabled by the Liberal government to end the use of solitary confinement also has them upset. Rob Essex, president of the Union of Canadian Correctional Officers (UCCO) at Warkworth Institution, said his members are getting "very frustrated" by what's happening, especially the lack of consultation with "frontline people who actually have to enforce and deal with" the policy changes that are taking place. The union represents about 220 correctional officers at the medium security prison but "a significant number" are currentSee YOU’RE, page 4

MEET SOME OF THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE POPPIES JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Every year in the days leading up to Nov. 11, you see them in their navy blue blazers standing at select locations around the community where pedestrian traffic is high, holding a tray of poppies in their arms. They are the men and women of the Royal Canadian Legion, collecting donations that support local veterans and their families. Who are these volunteers who, year after year, serve on a campaign that honours veterans and remembers those who sacrificed their lives so Canadians could continue to enjoy their freedoms? They're men like retired brigadier general Ian Douglas, who served 36 years in the military, with three regiments, including the Canadian Airborne Regiment which he commanded for a time. "I had a lot of young soldiers under my command," he said. "We were the lucky soldiers ... the Cold War soldiers, the biggest peacekeeping force in the world (NATO)." "There never was a World War Three because the free world collectively got together and put (up) that barrier." Each Remembrance Day Douglas, who's 80, thinks of "the young soldiers who put it on the line," particularly those who went to Afghanistan. More than 150 Canadians died in the war. "One is one too many but it's how you pay your dues in this world of alliances," Douglas said. He did four tours of duty
at Petawawa but also served in Central America, Germany and the United States. Two of his three children are in the military and the other married a soldier. His grandfather, Daniel McLaughlin, an infantryman, was killed in the First World War in his late 20s, and his father, Charlie, served in the navy in the Second World War. "We are so lucky here (in Canada)," he said. "As I get older I appreciate it more and more." A member of the legion for about 20 years, 11 with Branch 100 in Brighton, Douglas points out how much the organization supports the community with contributions from its other fundraising initiatives. He takes special pride in the support the branch has given the local cadet corps he helped establish 10 years ago. The cadet program is "the best citizenship movement in the country, bar none," and the one in Brighton is doing "fantastically well." Bob McKay, 70, started out in the navy and ended up in the army, serving 37 years in total, about half in electronic warfare communications. His work took him
John Campbell/Metroland Sandi Ramsay thanked Brighton Legion member Bob McKay for the $500 donation that the branch gave to the conservation authority for a youth environmental initiative. around the world, to Vietnam, Egypt and Italy. He retired as chief petty officer in 2003. McKay said he enjoys being a member of the legion for all the good work it does, especially on behalf of veterans. Sandi Ramsay, communications specialist with Lower Trent Conservation, happened along while McKay was distributing poppies and she made a point of stopping to thank

the Brighton Legion for donating $500 to the Connecting Kids with Nature Youth Environmental Initiative, "and the way they take care of the community at large. Where would be without the legion?" Paul Langevin, 76, served as a military policeman for three years, left to go to university and returned with a master's degree in social work. He worked the next 25 years as a social worker in the military, eventually be-
coming a major. His last three years were spent as an assistant professor at Royal Military College. He retired in 1996. Being a social worker "was very important because there's a lot of stress in the military," Langevin said. "We were very busy serving families as well as the military members ... providing a very valuable service. Since I got out they've expanded quite a bit, the mental health
programming." A member of the legion for 18 years, 10 in Brighton, Langevin said he's "surprised at the amount of support we get in this community for the legion and our veterans. It's been really eyeopening." And what the legion does for the community is "amazing," he added. "It's a real social support network ... It's probably the most important part of the legion."

"YOU'RE PUTTING CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS' LIVES IN JEOPARDY" Continued from page 1
ly off work because of "posttraumatic stress" brought on the nature of their work, he said. There are even more suffering from the same disorder but many of them "generally deal with it in silence," Essex said, because of what is known as "warrior's syndrome," the idea that correctional officers are "supposed to be tough" and able to manage the "constant conflict." With more than 500 inmates, Warkworth's prison population "has changed significantly" in recent years which has led to "a lot of turmoil," he said. Replacing solitary confinement, or administrative segregation, with structured intervention units, as the government proposes to do with Bill C-83, has raised concerns at UCCO.
Jason Godin, the union's national president, has stated the new legislation, tabled last month, "must not sacrifice disciplinary segregation as a tool to deter violent behaviour." Inmates "displaying dangerous and violent behaviour (must) have some consequences for their actions," Godin said. There have been "increased reports of assaults on inmates and staff" since Correctional Service of Canada "has limited its use of segregation with new policies." Essex said he agrees that inmates isolated for long periods "is not a good thing," but anyone who "continually breaks the rules" needs to be disciplined. "You're putting correctional officers' lives in jeopardy by not dealing with these inmates" appropriately, he said.
John Campbell/Metroland Rob Essex, president of correctional officers' union at Warkworth Institution, says their occupation, already challenging, is "becoming even more dangerous" with changes in policy being introduced by the federal government. UCCO members at Warkworth set up an information picket Nov. 2 to communicate to management and the
public their concerns with the Prison Needle Exchange Program. Northumberland-Peterborough South MP Kim Rudd didn't attend that picket, but she encountered one outside her hotel while in Saskatoon. "I took the opportunity to speak with those picketing to hear their concerns directly, and I encourage the union leadership to continue engaging Corrections Canada to ensure that best policy practices take place," she said in an email. "I can say without hesitation that the safety and security of staff, the public, and inmates are of the utmost importance." Rudd defended the needle exchange program, saying, "Advocates have called on this program to be created for the last 14 years to help prevent the spread of dangerous infectious dis-

eases. Infectious disease rates remain higher within the prison system over those in the general public." More than 100 correctional officers demonstrated Nov. 2 in Moncton and Regina, demanding that implementation of the program be suspended, and Conservative MP Harold Albrecht has launched a petition to put an end to it. Ending solitary confinement is another necessary step but not without some hurdles, Rudd acknowledged. "Certainly changing long-standing disciplinary strategies within prisons comes with challenges," she said, but "there will continue to be repercussions for inmates who break rules within prison institutions." Responding to fears the two policy changes in tandem will lead to more stress among staff, Rudd said the
"physical and mental wellbeing of corrections staff is always critical. These individuals provide essential services every day on behalf of all Canadians." Essex said being a correctional officer "is one of the most challenging professions in existence" and while officers "know there is an inherent risk in what we do ... our occupation is becoming even more dangerous." Details "are very vague at the moment" and they're concerned they'll be "left out of discussions" that will have a "great impact on our working conditions," he said. Correctional officers put their physical, mental and emotional well-being "on the line" every day, Essex said. All they are asking is "for a little more consideration" from their employer.

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - A local businessman has filed a complaint with the integrity commissioner accusing mayor-elect Brian Ostrander of distributing confidential information about him that was discussed at a closed meeting of council. Conolly told council Monday night a councillorelect had informed him that details from the closed session had been "disseminated" among members of the new council who have yet to be sworn in. They won't take office until December. Four of them do not sit on the current council. The breach in confidentiality "is troubling, especially when it comes from the mayor-elect," he said. Conolly said it was at that same meeting in October that council decided to decline his offer to install at no cost to the municipality a
living wall of solid plant life in the newly renovated municipal building. "The reason given is that (he has) financial claims against this municipality as a result of a zoning issue" involving his six acre property on Ontario Street, he said. Coun. Ostrander said after the meeting his correspondence with the new members of council "was intended to be in confidence ... so I will be keeping it in confidence." Asked if he had breached anyone's confidentiality, he replied: "Not to the best of my knowledge. In discussions with staff prior to sending the email, they thought it would be a good idea the newly elected council be brought up to speed on certain issues in the community." Ostrander said he had been notified the previous week that a request for an investigation had been
Christmas
made. "I have no need to defend myself," he said. "I'll be working with the investigator to find out ... if there were any violations of ethics or integrity of the municipality. And I fully intend to work with the investigator to discover that." Conolly told reporters after the meeting it was at a closed session on Oct. 1 that council discussed his financial claims against the municipality "as well as a few other things that I can't discuss right now." He filed his complaint with the integrity commissioner on Oct. 24 and was informed an investigation would not begin until December. He has also filed a Freedom of Information request to get a copy of Ostrander's email. Conolly said this dispute with the municipality over the zoning on his land cost him $150,000 because he had

LEST WE FORGET WHAT THOSE WHO FOUGHT AND DIED FOR OUR FREEDOM WERE FIGHTING FOR Nov. 11, 2018 will be the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War, or what contemporaries optimistically referred to as "la der des ders," meaning the last of last. So horrific were the gas bomb atrocities and trench warfare casualty lists, that the people who lived through it could scarcely imagine that two decades later their sons and daughters would see an even more destructive and painful war waged across virtually every continent.Critical civil and democratic rights were gained in Canada during the period between these wars. In 1918, women became eligible to vote in most provinces. The general strikes of 1919, borne out of the frustrations of rising inequality, resulted in increased union participation rates across the country, lifting wages and culminating in many of the benefits we now enjoy, such as employment insurance (1940). Many attribute these gains to the fact that the people who had lived through the hell of war wanted their sacrifices to mean something. So when despots rose in the 1930s, threatening world peace, they knew what they were fighting for, and they did what was necessary to preserve our freedom. Yet in 2018, many voters worldwide have chosen a different path. For a variety of reasons, voters in the U.S., Brazil and other western nations are choosing an eerily familiar path that resembles the sort of fascism that rose in the mid-20th century. As a result, the rights of groups such as people of colour and immigrants are at risk. We need look no further than the neo-Nazis who marched in Charlottesville in the summer of 2017, and the American president who defended them for a very literal example of how hate and intolerance are being condoned by leadership. It's not hard to the link this climate to terrorist violence, such as the recent Pittsburg synagogue shooting.We urge readers to consider what the heroes we remember on Remembrance Day were fighting for. Regardless of one's political beliefs, hopefully we can all agree that all people, regardless of gender, religion, ethnic background or sexual orientation, deserve to be treated equally and with respect. Our ancestors who served in wars aimed at preserving freedom would certainly want Canadians to be vigilant, and make sure what we are seeing in the U.S. never comes to our country. Lest we forget those who died for our rights and freedom. Lest we forget what they were fighting for.

LIBERTY COMES AT A GREAT COST RESPONSIBILITY OURS TO ENSURE FREEDOMS REMAIN PROTECTED, COLUMNIST WRITES JOHN CAMPBELL Column
People across Canada will soon gather at cenotaphs and monuments to honour this country's fallen soldiers as well as its veterans. It's also an opportunity to recognize those currently serving in the military who are prepared to face the same dangers when called upon as did the men and women in uniform who came before them. It's an observance that began not long after the horrors of the First World War claimed the lives of nearly 61,000 Canadians and left another 172,000 wounded. Another 45,000 Canadi-
ans would die in combat in the Second World War and a further 54,000 left wounded. Those are staggering figures for generations of Canadians born in the 1940s and later who have known relative peace for much of their lives. Compare those numbers to the combat mission in Afghanistan, in which 158 members of the Canadian Forces were killed between 2001 and 2012. Their deaths led to the Highway of Heroes being established, that stretch of highway between CFB Trenton and a coroner's office in Toronto, where the bodies of military personnel killed are taken by convoy. The tradition was begun of citizens congregating along roads and on overpasses to pay their respects and to show their support for families who were grieving, as the convoy passed by them. Although strangers, the sense of loss was immediate and intensely felt. The Remembrance Day experience is of a different order, a well-established rit-
ual that reminds us, in sermon, march and song, the heavy price to be paid to keep our country free and in control of its own destiny. Liberty comes at a great cost when others in the world would seek to destroy it. Sadly, enemies of democracies who would do them harm never shrink in number, and their persistence seldom flags. Alarmingly, the rise of extreme-right movements around the world gaining power through the ballot box and influence through the media is a distressing development and contributes to a growing sense of unease. Where will this all end? It's something to reflect upon Nov. 11 when, in paying tribute to the fallen, we remember anew what it is they died for - rights and freedoms we enjoy and often take for granted - and the responsibilities we ourselves bear to see that they're protected. John Campbell is a reporter with the Brighton Independent.

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - When Mark Bateman, president of the Brighton Minor Hockey Association, appealed to council last winter not to raise ice rental rates this season by $3 an hour, he made a commitment: to lower registration fees for youngsters three to six years of age from $375 to $100 per child. Council agreed to his request and Bateman made good on his promise. The result: registration for preschool and Initiation Program (IP) players has soared, jumping from just 12 last season to nearly 50. Having that many youngsters on the ice at one time "is just fabulous to see," Bateman said. Surrounding centres charge $450 for the same age group.
"It wasn't to steal their kids, it was to get our kids off the couch" by making hockey affordable for more families, Bateman said. "I'm not trying to develop hockey players, I'm trying to develop citizens," he continued. The children learn social skills, such as how to interact with others their age as well as adults. "When you see the smiles on their faces ... it really brings into perspective" what the program means to them, he said. George and Mitch Hamilton, of Cole's Timber Mart, have contributed to the program's success by covering the cost of purchasing 50 sweaters. Mayor Mark Walas praised the work of Bateman and the support of Cole's at council's last meeting. Bateman's suggestion
was approved by council because it "made sense," Walas said in an interview. "It turned out to be a tremendous success," he said. "It speaks to the spirit of community." He was "really pleased" to see a fourfold increase in registration at the youngest ages, which proved it was "a great move." Darren Lawn, the head coach for Brighton Minor Hockey, and Cindie Evans, its treasurer/registrar, are serving as the instructors until they can find parents to serve in their stead. Most of the youngsters started out the first week not being able to skate, Lawn said. "The program is to get kids moving, first of all," and then introduce them to hockey, he said. By the end of the first session, Oct. 9, "everyone
was moving across the ice," said Evans, a former figure skating coach and power skating instructor. The sessions are an hour long on Tuesday afternoons and 90 minutes on Saturday mornings. The program's goal is to have the children not just learn how to skate and to play hockey, but also to have "a good time," Lawn said. "Hockey can be prohibitive because of the expense," Evans said. Fortunately, there are "lots of great programs like (Canadian Tire's) Jumpstart ... to help with the fi-
nances, if that's what's needed." Another one is Kidsport Northumberland, Bateman said. Play It Again Sports in Cobourg outfitted two children last year and again this year, he added.
STORY BEHIND THE STORY:
An appeal to Brighton council not to raise ice rental fees and a commitment from minor hockey president Mark Bateman has resulted in a jump in registrations. Reporter John Campbell took to the rink recently to get feedback from parents and kids.

Kiel Taylor, whose son Max, 5, is learning how to play hockey, said he was "surprised" at how low the fee is for the IP program. "I was expecting it to be a lot higher," he said. It being so low "is definitely a bonus ... There's probably a lot of kids out here because of that."

fighting the municipality over the past 18 months, and a further $15,000 to build a fence. "The municipality of Brighton is wrong and they cost me a lot of money," he said. "I asked repeatedly for resolution before it ever got to this point and I was denied at every turn." Conolly said he had "renewed hope" that with a new council in place he would "finally get some traction" to move forward with his plans, only to have the mayor-elect warn the new members of council in an email sent the day after the election "to be
wary" of him because he's "a trouble-maker." "That puts a bias already on council," he charged. "It's not Brian Ostrander's job to inform councillors what they should or shouldn't think. He overstepped his bounds. He's not the mayor of this municipality, nor is he entitled to share municipal business from closed sessions with newly elected officials (who) aren't even sworn in." "You can't take closed session and move (it) into public at your whim," he said. "That's a serious breach." He declined to reveal who the councillor-elect was who had called him and said "this isn't right."

Tips to Stay Cold & Flu Free www.newscanada.com (NC)
Heading into cold and flu season, it’s an important reminder that the best way to stay healthy is through prevention. While nothing will guarantee you will be able to completely prevent illness related to cold and flu viruses, take a look below for some tips from Bowen Chen, Target pharmacist, to help fend off illness before it hits. Stay rested Factors that may increase the risk of catching a cold or flu are fatigue and emotional stress. Be sure to take the time to rest if you feel something coming on, and don’t go into work if you wake up with a fever, aches and pains, or are coughing, sniffling, and sneezing. Wash your hands Yes, we have all heard this over and over, but hand washing is one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of illness. The cold and flu viruses can spread through indirect contact such as touching objects like door handles, and can live for 2 to 8 hours on surfaces. Everyone should wash their hands frequently with soap and water, or if unavailable, use an
alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Avoid sharing food and beverages Cold and flu viruses can spread through direct contact, such as sharing drinks or food. Avoid sharing straws, bottles, snacks and utensils with others, especially if you are sick. Cover your sneezes and coughs When you sneeze or cough, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue if possible. Cough or sneeze into your sleeve if you do not have a tissue handy. Lead by example and teach your family to follow suit. Get a flu shot The most effective way to decrease complications and reduce the impact of the flu is to get a preventative vaccine shot. The North American vaccine is developed each year to work against three strains of influenza virus, based on trends seen in the Southern Hemisphere. The best time for vaccination is early October to mid-November.

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Warkworth - The W8 was held last Saturday bearing a new name, the Dave Down Bridge Hospice Run. The fundraiser was renamed in honour of Down, a hospice sponsor who also ran in the event every year until his tragic death in a collision on County Road 41 in 2017. He was a "towering friendly presence (who) did much for many of all ages," Bridge Hospice said in a news release explaining the name change was made to honour Down's "enduring spirit." Down's sister, Trent Hills Coun. Cathy Redden, said many family members were on hand for the run, which began and ended at the Warkworth arena. Her brother "was really committed to the community," she said. "I think he'd be very pleased (to be recognized in such a manner)." Down's son, Jamie, agreed. "It was a big passion of Dad's to get healthy. He'd run two, three times a week," he said. "He really enjoyed it. This would have meant a lot to him." Jennifer Dorland hadn't participated in the fundraiser before but decided to this time because of the name change. Dorland "was an awesome neighbour" who taught her children how to make maple syrup, she said. Her children ran the 1K and she and four others in her group tackled the 5K.
More than 130 signed up for the event, now in its 14th year. Each runner was given a sucker courtesy of the Down family. "Dave was well-known to keep a stash of suckers behind the counter at the Warkworth Farm Supply; handing them out to any young person/child who would tell him a joke, what they learned in school that day, sing a song, etc.," hospice communications and events co-ordinator, Alison Lane, said in an email. "The fundraising total is still being tallied, but I can definitely say we'll raise over $10,000, which is fantastic," she said on Monday. "This event runs on volunteer power, so we are able to maximize the amount of funds that will go to a special community service for people at end of life and their loved ones." The top male and female runners in the longer distances were: Eight miler - Gary Wilson, of Trenton, with a time of 55:25, and Paule Bertholet, of Kingston, 56:54; 5K - Josh Eccles, of Peterborough, 21:30, and Melissa Lowery, 26:52. The run is one of three major fundraisers the non-profit organization stages each year, the other two being a spring walk and duckie race, and a golf tournament. "They go a long way but we also rely on donations (to meet expenses)," hospice board chair Burnham said. "It's always a challenge to raise the money needed to keep the hospice in operation."

CANADIAN-MADE GOODS AT CHRISTMAS AT PRESQU'ILE ALICIA VANDINE aliciavandine@gmail.com Canadian-made crafts and art buyers flocked to Presqu'ile Park this weekend for the annual Christmas at Presqu'ile juried arts and crafts show. "We have over 140 localish juried artisans and crafters," said Beverlie Cook, chair of the Friends of Presqu'ile. "Vendors are from the local area and within about an hour's drive from Brighton." "This year, handcrafted pottery, jewelry and of course food products are popular," added Cook. This annual event takes place in the park, in two locations. The crafted items are displayed in the Nature Centre, which has been transformed to display all the items for sale, and the in the Lighthouse Interpretive Centre, which has been transformed into an art gallery featuring the work of wellknown professional artists. At the lighthouse, they
are featuring artists Linda Barber and Doug Comeau. Barber is a plein air artist specializing in acrylics. "I am inspired by painting outdoors," said Barber. "The light here at Presqu'ile and in Prince Edward County is so lovely and is featured in many of my paintings." Artist Doug Comeau's work features realistic portraiture style. "I love capturing the character of my subject in my work," he said. "That includes all the lines of their face and the life and light in their eyes." Based out of Trenton, Comeau has drawn a lot of inspiration from the park over the years for his work, which often features wildlife. Next door to the Nature Centre, in Stonehedge, visitors can sit down and enjoy the tearoom, featuring rum cake and hot drinks. Presented by the Friends of Presqu'ile, this annual event is in its 27th year and continues to grow in popularity.
OUTGOING MAYOR WILL MAKE PLANS FOR FUTURE IN NEW YEAR
northumberlandnews.com
JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Mayor Mark Walas hasn't made any plans for life after council after losing the Oct. 22 municipal election by 133 votes to Coun. Brian Ostrander, 2,690-2,557. "I'll be quite honest, I did firmly believe that I had more support than was indicated by the results but ... at the end of the day the numbers don't lie," he said. "It's been a great time and we respect the decision of
the electorate." "We're still looking at a number of different things," Walas said of his plans for the future. He has "some business interests" in Brighton to look after, in residential development, and he and his wife "might do a little bit of travelling." He'll wait until the new year "and then see what happens." When asked if his future endeavours could include volunteer work, Walas replied he "would never say no

"What shape that will take (is uncertain at this point)," he added. "The only thing I can say it will not be municipally, that's for certain." Walas said he "really garnered a great appreciation" of the work done by staff at the municipality and at Northumberland County during his eight years in office. None of the "great things" that happened over the last years could have been achieved without their contributions, he said, and the expertise they provided in public works, protective services, administration, parks and recreation, and water and wastewater. Without that "network of people, none of the work would be done," Walas said.

BRIGHTON'S OWN: TRUE BLUE LEGIONNAIRES VICKI AND STEWART SHARP HAVE BECOME SYNONYMOUS WITH LOCAL LEGION, VIC SCHUKOV WRITES VIC SCHUKOV Column
Vicki and Stewart Sharp were both born and raised in Oshawa, only a few blocks apart, but did not meet until 34 years ago. Since then, they have been inseparable: "The night we met," said Stewart, "we danced and never sat down." Vicki added, "When we (first) spoke, we knew a lot of people in common, as well as having a lot in common. I had been a girl guide and he had been a boy scout (Smiling)." Stewart worked for 33
years at GM before retiring at 50. Vicki held various administrative jobs, first at the hospital, then the Oshawa This Week newspaper and the Oshawa Clinic. (She also, oddly enough, found employment in the unemployment department of Manpower.) A little over 10 years ago, the couple popped into Brighton while Vicki was visiting her cousin. Stewart said, "The day happened to be Applefest, and I told Vicki after we returned home, 'Wow look at the size of what's going on downtown. It would be an awfully nice place to live.' Vicki wanted to be closer to her grandkids and I wanted to be closer to a golf course.' (Laughing)." So, the Sharps moved to Brighton shortly after. "It didn't take long to realize that for our social life we needed to go up and join the Legion," said Stewart. "We met some real nice people there." Stewart was a member
of the Kinmount Legion so he just transferred to the one in Brighton nine years ago. They are true legionnaires: the couple plays darts together on Tuesdays. On Thursdays, she does the exercise program for VON. Fridays is his pool league. This past May, Stewart became president (which made Vicki official assistant in everything!). As newly minted president, Stewart inherits the legion's No. 1 concern: a new roof. "We need $50,000 for a new roof," said Stewart. "Last winter was terrible, and we were closed in the spring for a few days (for repairs). We are very involved raising money for next spring replacement. A few friends of the legion are giving us a nice cheque, and the quicker we get the needed funds the sooner we can plan the new roof. We want to do it right. We are appealing to our membership right
Vic Schukov/Metroland Vicki and Stewart Sharp shown here at home. now." The Terry Denyes Trio has generously offered to perform at a fundraiser on Saturday, Dec. 8 to benefit the roof. Even the showing at the last legion breakfast topped off at 97 people. "We had to scramble (pardon the pun) and go to Sobeys for more eggs," said Stewart laughing. The Sharps even share a common philosophy:
Vicki: "I enjoy life and meeting people. We love Brighton. Everyone is friendly. I like the flexibility of being able to walk anywhere." Stewart: "I am a people person, and I like the people I have met here. I like to be involved. Vicki and I do most things together. In fact, six mornings of the week we go to the Trenton YMCA pool."
Vicki: "One girl there calls us her PPs - pool parents (Laughing)." The inseparable and incomparable Sharps: True blue Brighton legionnaires. Brighton resident Vic Schukov is a longtime journalist and writer of biography books for everyday people; victorschukov@gmail.com.

NATURE CONSERVANCY, DUCKS UNLIMITED ACQUIRE BRIGHTON WETLAND JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - The Nature Conservancy of Canada and Ducks Unlimited Canada have acquired 93 hectares (231 acres) of pristine wetland along Presqu'ile Bay. It is "very rare to see a wetland of this size" on Lake Ontario that's undeveloped and intact, Mark Stabb, NCC's program director for central Ontario east, said on Wednesday in announcing the joint land purchase at the Presqu'ile Yacht Club. The Brighton Wetland, which includes 2.5 kilometres of shoreline, is an important stopover site for migratory birds on their long journeys, Stabb said, noting thousands of ducks and geese each year stop to rest and feed in the sheltered areas of Presqu'ile Bay. "In the spring and summer, the wetlands are important nesting areas for wetland birds, such as the endangered king rail and threatened least bittern," he said. The wetland acquisition marked the first time the conservancy and Ducks Unlimited Canada have teamed up to purchase property in Ontario, Stabb said. With a price tag of more than $1 million, "we knew we couldn't do it alone." Ducks Unlimited's support - it contributed $350,000 - and that of the federal government and numerous other donors means "Brighton Wetland is now protected forever," Stabb said. Including adjacent Willenroth Woods, which NCC also owns, the conservancy protects more than 121 hectares (300 acres) and close to four kilometres of shoreline locally. The Brighton Wetland is part of the Presqu'ile Bay Provincially Significant Wetland and the Presqu'ile Bay Important Bird and Biodiversity Area. "It's a real hot spot for nature," Stabb said. The federal government, through its Natural Areas Conservation Program, provided half of the funds required to make the pur-

Northumberland-Peterborough South MP Kim Rudd said her government is committed to the conservation of wildlife habitats and the protection and recovery of species at risk in Canada. It has pledged to conserve at least 17 per cent of the country's land and fresh water through various measures by 2020. Conserving shorelines and wetlands like those along Presqu'ile Bay "protects against the extremes of weather caused by climate change," Rudd said. "Today's announcement is really about how we can better restore, conserve and enhance Canada's natural treasures when we work together." The Municipality of Brighton contributed $15,000, matching the donation made by Lower Trent Conservation. Mayor Mark Walas thanked the many organizations that supported the project "to protect this jewel that we have" and he praised the NCC and DUC for the leadership role they assumed in making it happen. Erling Armson, head of securement for Ducks Unlimited, said he believes the land acquisition "is the only one in Canada" the two organizations have done together. Stabb said the project wouldn't have succeeded without the support of groups such as Northumberland Land Trust and
Lone Pine Land Trust (which each gave $10,000) and individuals like local naturalist Doug McRae, who made a donation in honour of his late mother and got the word out in the community what was taking place. "He was our champion," Stabb said. McRae and others made "pace-setting gifts that really set the momentum going that made sure this was going to happen." The donations by more than 90 individuals ranged as high as $100,000 in some cases. "The community really stepped up to chip in for this particular project," Stabb said. The conservancy and Ducks Unlimited are currently putting together a property management plan. The key issues are compiling a biological inventory and identifying the wetland's special features and the risks that invasive species pose. The two partners plan to establish a trail system that will allow people to walk to the shoreline. "The support we received from the local community shows us how interested people are in keeping that vista green, keeping that place intact," Stabb said. They will "test drive routes" before the trails are opened to the public in the fall of 2019, he said. Money will have to be raised to fund the one-time capital costs, he added.

Colborne - Colborne will join communities across Canada by ringing five bells 100 times on Nov. 11 to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War. The bells are located at the former United Church in downtown Colborne, St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church belfry and its front lawn on King Street East, the former bell in front of Royal Canadian Legion Branch 187, and the bell mounted in Victoria Square Park. After all the bells have rung, Amazing Grace will be played by an 8 Wing Trenton piper. The local legion branch has organized the event, which will begin at 4:45 p.m. It's encouraging residents to step outside to hear what will be "a beautiful act" of remembrance that emulates the moment in 1918 when church bells across Europe tolled as four years of war came to an end. Children are being encouraged by schools and youth organizations to join in the initiative by researching, locating and placing flags on the graves of Canadian veterans of the Great War. Legion branches and communities across the country will be hosting commemorative ceremonies and special activities to help Canada remember. The bells will ring at sunset on Nov. 11 at Parliament Hill, city halls, places of worship and military bases, as well as on naval vessels.

CANCER GETS A GLOVE IN THE FACE IN FIGHT AT BRIGHTON RINK
northumberlandnews.com
JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Marilyn Girdwood is one of countless Canadians whose lives have been touched by cancer. Her son, Adam Said, died of an inoperable brain stem tumour in March 1989 at the age of eight, two months after being diagnosed with cancer. Adam played net for the Brighton novice team. "He loved being goalie because everybody jumps on you when ... you win," Girdwood said. The Brighton Kinsmen donated a trophy in Adam's memory and every April she presents it to the most improved novice player. "I'm very proud of it," she said. Girdwood, whose husband Robert died of cancer last year, took part in last Saturday's Hockey Fights Cancer that Brighton Minor Hockey Association president Mark Bateman organized as part of a North American-wide initiative involving the National and American hockey leagues that began in 1998-99. She was there to "put out the word that cancer strikes every family some way" and that the Canadian Cancer Society needs help in its efforts to find a cure and to assist those being treated for the disease. It "desperately" needs drivers to take cancer patients to their doctor appointments, she said. The Nov. 3 event was a first for the association and Girdwood said it was "wonderful" what minor hockey was doing. The Canadian Cancer Society had a display at the King Edward Park Arena to publicize its work, to

John Campbell/Metroland (Top) Northumberland-Peterborough South MPP David Picinni, on the left, says Hockey Fights Cancer is "a great initiative." Brighton minor hockey president Mark Bateman organized the first such fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society to be held in the community. It took place Nov. 3.

Bateman said it's the first year the two pro leagues have opened up Hockey Fights Cancer to minor hockey associations and to his knowledge Brighton is the only one to have "jumped on board" thus far. "Hopefully, I can turn this into an annual event," he said. Top prize in a draw the association ran was two tickets to a Toronto Maple Leafs hockey game, donated by Cole's Timber Mart. "It's time to end the fight against cancer, it's a disease that's been around far too long ...(and) can strike anybody," Bateman said. He was recently elected to council and was joined
at the rink by other candidates who were successful, including Doug Leblanc, the owner of TriCounty Plastics, who donated $500 that he and his employees had pooled together. "Cancer affects everybody," he said, as it has in his family, but it also can strike down pets that have become invaluable members of the household. It happened with his beloved Pepper, a black lab who died of cancer, he said. Bateman sent word on Monday that the event raised $1,086 at the arena and he was waiting to hear from two local restaurants who took part what they had raised. "It was a good day for the Canadian Cancer Society and for Brighton," he wrote.
Before Jose Bautista's bat flip, even before Joe Carter's "touch-em-all-Joe" walk-off winner, there was Blue Monday. The home run by Rick Monday of the Los Angeles Dodgers on that dreary Monday afternoon, Oct. 19, 1981, ended a heck of a baseball series and season for the Montreal Expos. It was the first Major League Baseball post-season divisional series played outside the United States, and the first post-season appearance for any Canadian team. Uxbridge's Danny Gallagher, a low-level baseball journeyman from the Ottawa Valley, was sitting in a Sudbury bar when Monday hit the ninth-inning home run that would send the Dodgers - and not the Expos - to face the New York Yankees in the World Series. Gallagher a freelance writer, author, and Expos historian, would later become a beat writer for the team, covering them for the Montreal Daily News in the late 1980s. He's written a number of books on the team and on Nov. 10, he will be in Peterborough to sell and sign copies of his latest, aptly titled Blue Monday. Gallagher will be at the One Eighty Sports Pub in Peterborough Nov. 10 at 2:30 p.m. Drop by if you want to meet him, buy a book, or just want to chat baseball.

CAMPBELLFORD'S JUNIOR FLAMES EASTERN ONTARIO FOOTBALL CHAMPS JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Campbellford - The junior Flames football team did last week what no other has done at Campbellford District High School since 1979-80 - win an eastern Ontario championship. It ended the drought with a 44-28 victory over Norwood at home to finish the season with five wins and no losses. "They had the right players and coaching," and the result was "awesome," said Saijo Seito, the high school's extracurricular co-ordinator and general manager for its teams. Running back Malaki Van Gils stood out, scoring four touchdowns, while fellow running back Jordan McDonald added two more. The team's two volunteer coaches - Glen Gratton and Adam Doherty (defensive co-ordinator) - were new to the positions at CDHS. More than 20 students in grades 9 and 10 turned out for six-a-side football when the season started.
Seito said CDHS has never won a senior football championship but that could change this week when the school plays Norwood in the final Nov. 8. Campbellford advanced by defeating Bancroft 16-0 Nov. 1, with Trystyn Hislop and Kieran Hannigan each scoring a TD. Seito, who coached the seniors along with Henry Zelasko, helped restart the football program several years ago, along with John Sharpe and Steve McCarthy. The coaches then were Doug Keene and the late Jack Greben. They were followed by Tom Stephens, Joe Brouwers and his son Alex. "It's a long process, all those guys deserve credit for getting this championship," he said. The high school program was boosted by the emergence of the Trent Hills Titans in the Belleville Minor Football League for students in grades 6, 7 and 8. "It helped give us players who have experience, and keep football continuing on in Campbellford," Seito said.
