Feeding swans, geese is just ducky for these bird people
Mary Anderson throws some corn down along Barcovan Beach Road, on Sunday, Jan. 8. Sarah Hyatt/Metroland.
SARAH HYATT
Brighton – When Brighton residents Scott and Mary Anderson heard swans, ducks and geese were starving to death in 2014 just down the road from their home, they knew they had to do something. Regardless of whether they must truck through snow, ice or freezing rain every morning throughout the winter months, the husband and wife make their way along Barcovan Beach Road to the channel there, just south of the golf course.
Feeding the birds has become part of their winter morning ritual. The Andersons enjoy a cup of tea first, catch up on the news and then they’re on their way. “We missed just one day last year,” said Scott. And that was only due to a heavy snowfall, with the pair spending the day trying to clear the driveway. Feeding the swans, ducks and geese is something the Andersons have grown to “love.” “Mary talks to them all the time, tells them to behave,” Scott laughed.
Scott and Mary started feeding the birds after word spread about the dying shorebirds down at Barcovan back in 2014. They first heard about the birds through their daughter, Audra. “As soon as we heard, Mary and I, we jumped in the car right away,” said Scott. When Mary saw “the pile of dead swans, she started crying.” The husband and wife returned home and later spoke with their daughter about what they saw.
Audra encouraged her parents to head up the road and buy some corn from a local farmer. Scott recalled how his daughter handed the pair $75 and said, “go.” “We didn’t know how much corn cost then,” Scott laughed. The Andersons aren’t alone in their efforts. They often feed the birds with Opal Cooper, a resident of Barcovan Beach Road. They work closely with Cooper to co-ordinate feedings. Sometimes there are a few more people helping on
the weekends and Cooper lets the Andersons know if more people are coming, said Scott. Cooper’s been feeding the birds for years. Last year was the first year with no shorebird fatalities, despite the freezing cold, said Scott. In 2015, the swans, geese and ducks were fed at least 200 pounds of corn per day through the winter months and only one duck died, the group reported. In 2016, the group recorded more than 3,000 pounds of whole corn fed to the birds. Others feed the birds too. And while feeding wildlife can stir controversy at times, for the Andersons, there’s no harm in winter-feeding in this instance, they say. There have been worries expressed and people say the birds will become dependent, said Scott. But the birds don’t stay after the snow and ice are gone –they go back to their natural way and habitats, said Scott. The Andersons are encouraging others who may be interested in lending a hand during the winter, either through feeding or financial donations for corn. “We could use the help,” said Scott. “They’re just hungry and can’t get a lot of food now.”

Mayor predicts another boom year BY JACK EVANS
Belleville – “Fasten your seatbelts,” was Belleville Mayor Taso Christopher’s slogan to the Kiwanis Club of Belleville as he reviewed prospects for 2017. He was attending the club’s longstanding traditional “civic” meeting to discuss city council accomplishments. The meeting, the first of 2017 for the Kiwanis Club, was held Jan. 3 at The Banquet Centre. Infrastructure remains council’s key goal, he stressed, noting that this year it will “focus on the waterfront.” He said Hamilton is Ontario’s poster child when it comes to accessible, open public space per capita. Belleville is already a near rival and council has set its sights on overtaking and surpassing that status starting this year. First, Christopher reviewed 2016 as “monumental” in terms of activity, infrastructure and major project advances and major achievements, including the city’s hosting of the Women’s Mayor Taso Christopher reviewed 2016 and U-19 World Floorball Championships, gave projections for an equally busy and sucwhich drew several hundred players from cessful 2017 at the annual Kiwanis Club of Bel16 countries and set records for attendance leville Civic meeting on Jan. 3. Jack Evans/Metroland thanks to local fans. Then there was the deal to land the Belleville Senators, the Ottawa Senators American Hockey League farm team. The deal makes Belleville one of only three cities in Ontario to have a professional hockey team. Additional expenditures on the Yule lighting display at Jane Forrester Park also drew much favourable attention this past season he said, to a burst of applause from his audience. When he cited the new police station expected to move ahead this year, there was a wave of doubtful chuckles. Other projections for 2017 include the opening of the new Shorelines Casino Belleville, which already has hired more than 200 employees, a major expansion with more jobs at the Procter and Gamble plant, improvements to the northeast industrial park, finishing the new Dundas Street/ Bay Bridge project and more. Christopher stated that Belleville’s unemployment rate is now down to 4.9 per cent and that is much better than neighbouring cities. Finally, he proclaimed this year as the 200th anniversary of the founding of Belleville as a small village. Special activities are planned for later this year to recognize this fact, not counting special events for Canada’s sesquicentennial celebrations. One club member, retired city employee Marj Buck, chided the mayor and council for refusing the club’s application for a $395 grant to help promote its annual Fishing Derby, which provides many dollars into community causes. She said the club made sure its application was in early as it was refused the previous year for being late, then lost out to a for-profit fishing event whose application was itself proposed late. The mayor expressed his regret and stressed that his own interpretation of such grants is that they should be only for not-for-profit events by not-forprofit organizations. He agreed that perhaps the committee’s role should be reviewed. He also gave a nod to volunteers and organizations like Kiwanis. “Without volunteers and organizations like yours, we’d be dead,” he Municipality of Centre said.

OPINION
Musings on Trump, WikiLeaks and Russia When a Fox News reporter asked Donald Trump about WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange back in 2010, just after Assange had released a huge cache of secret US diplomatic cables, the reality TV star had no Gwynne Dyer doubts: “I think it’s disgraceful, I think there should be like the death penalty or something.” Circumstances change, however, and smart people with big brains know when it’s time to switch sides. It was WikilLeaks, once again, that revealed the hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee that did such damage to Hillary Clinton’s campaign last summer. But Trump now readily accepts Assange’s word that he didn’t get those emails from the Russians. Trump has been having a problem with the main US intelligence agencies, which unanimously insist that the Russians did indeed hack the DNC’s emails, and that they passed them to WikiLeaks (through an intermediary) in order to damage Clinton’s presidential election campaign. “Putin and the Russian government developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump,” as the joint intelligence report put it. So Trump was very happy to be able to reply (in a tweet, of course) that “Assange... said Russians did not give him the info!” After all, what motive could Assange have for lying about it? Well, there is the fact that Assange has been living in one room in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London for the past four years, in order to avoid being extradited to the United States on espionage charges that could get him up to 45 years in prison. Donald Trump is the one person who could make all that trouble go away, once he becomes the president, so doing him a favour now might be a wise move on Assange’s part. Assange would not even have to lie outright, because the Russians would obviously never give him the emails directly. There would have to be one or more persons in between, because WikiLeaks is not in the business of taking leaks from governments. Moreover, as Trump points out, the Central Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are the same organisations that cooked up the evidence for Saddam Hussein’s “weapons of mass destruction” so that President George W. Bush could invade Iraq. Nevertheless, the US intelligence agencies are probably right to blame their Russian coun-

terparts for the hacks that caused the Clinton campaign such problems. President Vladimir Putin has been quite open about preferring Trump to Clinton, and the leaks definitely gave a boost to Trump’s election campaign in late July and August. On the other hand, that happened so long before the actual vote in November that it’s impossible to say if it had any effect on the outcome. The event that probably did give Trump his very narrow margin of victory (100,000 votes spread between three key swing states) was FBI director James Comey’s bizarre decision to declare that Hillary Clinton was facing another investigation only eleven days before the vote. It’s all might-have-beens, and the only reason it has become controversial is Trump’s extremely thin skin. He is questioning the intelligence services’ conclusions about Russian interference because he believes (wrongly) that they undermine the validity of his election victory. But his strong sympathy for the Russian position, though driven by perceived personal interests, is a refreshing break from the usual Washington paranoia. He said it himself (in another tweet): “Having a good relationship with Russia is a good thing, not a bad thing. Only stupid people or fools would think that it is bad. We have enough problems around the world without yet another one.” This is a perfectly reasonable statement. Trump’s views on China give cause for alarm, but his desire for a reconciliation with Russia makes more sense than the reflex hostility that both Hillary Clinton and the US intelligence services bring to the relationship. Vladimir Putin is a player, and sometimes he plays rough, but his recent meddling in the American election is far less than the massive US interference in Russian elections in the 1990s. In seeking a rapprochement with Moscow, Trump should not make the mistake of accepting Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea. Changing borders by force (even if most of the local population approves of it) has been banned by international law for more than half a century, and we should not start making exceptions to that rule now. But while the United States never accepted the old Soviet Union’s illegal annexation of the Baltic states in 1940, it did not let that stand in the way of improving the US-Soviet relationship as the Cold War drew to an end. There is much that the United States and Russia could usefully co-operate on now, starting with putting an end to the war in Syria. On this issue, at least, Trump is right and Obama, Clinton and the spooks are wrong.

legal. But generally opioid drugs act on the nervous system to relieve pain. Continued use and abuse can lead to withdrawal symptoms and physical dependence. Health care workers in Ontario have observed a rising number of cases where opioids have been abused, in some cases leading to death, since about 2002, Oglaza said. And the statistics for Hastings Country show that it’s among the regions most heavily impacted by this rise of opioid dependency. “We are definitely in the top third (in Ontario), which is not where we want to be,� he said. Another concern, Oglaza said, is that the opioid drug use is highest in the 24 to 44 age bracket. “These are people who would normally be in the prime of their lives, the peak of their careers,� he said. “The impact is on everything; their families, economic development. It’s huge.� Board members pondered how revealing some of the statistics are. The fact that more than 10,000 people in the county were on opioids in one year
may or may not be alarming, given that in some cases it could be prescribed by a doctor and taken properly for a short period of time. However board member Egerton Boyce raised a point, confirmed by Oglaza, which was that the data doesn’t reflect those who accessed the drugs through a benefits package from an employer. In that case, the number of users (and abusers) could be much higher. But no one argued that the number of E.R. visits and deaths is concerning. The deputation marked the second time in a year that the board had heard about opioid abuse. Dr. Kieran Moore, an associate medical officer of health from Kingston, visited the local health board last May to talk about what he called an “epidemic� of people dying from non-intentional overdoes of doctorprescribed opioid drugs. In Ontario, there were 5,383 non-intentional opioid-related deaths from 2002 to 2014, Moore said. These shocking statistics are prompting health care officials to
think of new ways to treat the problem. The health unit recently launched a community-based Naloxone-distribution program called The Lifesaver program. Anyone can pick up a kit from the health unit for someone experiencing an opioid drug program. The kit teaches them how to inject Naloxone, a drug considered an antidote to opioids. But Oglaza admitted that the program has been underutilized so far. Since its launch in September, only about 50 kits have been given out, which equates to a small drop in a bucket considering there are more than 10,000 opioid drug users in the county. However, he added that the health unit is now working with staff at the Local Health Integration Network to make more kits available.

Move and Groove keeps kids active in Hastings BY BILL FREEMAN
Hastings - The weather outside is frightful, but that doesn’t mean preschoolers can’t get physically active, stretch out their muscles and groove to some music. The YMCA’s Move and Groove program at the Hastings Ontario Early Years Centre is a perfect blend of music and movement with songs, rhymes and even a little yoga thrown into the weekly mix. “The weather isn’t conducive to being outside so moving and gross motor activities (are critical),” says the Sam Kelly of YMCA Northumberland, who delivers the Thursday morning program. Kelly “incorporates balance, coordination and movement” into a program that also uses songs, rhymes, games and a little bit of basic yoga to keep children moving and engaged. “It’s important to keep kids moving at this time of year,” she says. “The kids can get some of their energy out when they’re not able to get outside.”
FOR EVERY REASON AND EVERY SEASON
TM
“One of the caregivers who uses the Hastings Early Years Centre asked if I could do something that incorporated physical activity during winter. I try to keep things fresh and new and keep them moving and engaged and involved in the rhymes.” Kelly has yoga cards that will help children replicate animal moves through various poses. The children’s yoga program at the YMCA in Cobourg is very successful, she says. “It gets a lot of feedback. Maybe it’s something that can come here someday.” Kelly says many of the things she does in Move and Groove can be used by Hastings OEYC supervisor Angie Nestoruk during the popular Friday morning “Let’s Get Physical” gatherings at the Hastings Filed House. The free six-week program is tailored to the number of children who drop into the centre Thursdays at 10 a.m., Kelly says. “It’s based on the group that’s here. I come prepared but sometimes we just wing it.” There’s no preregistration. For more information, call 705-696-1353.

Small arms firing range will not call Codrington home SARAH HYATT
Codrington – The proposed small arms firing range on Cameron Road that had some residents banding together in opposition will not be moving forward. As of Wednesday, Jan. 4, Brighton’s CAO Bill Watson reported the project is now essentially considered “dead.” As requested, the proponent’s fees for the project to date have been returned, said Watson. It was William Benn’s “dream” after the military to construct the firing range located at 780 Cameron Rd. Benn confirmed with the Independent on Wednesday, Jan. 4, he had just officially withdrawn his application with the municipality.
“The community support is just not there anymore,” said Benn. Benn first approached the municipality about the range project back in 2015, hopeful for council and the community’s endorsement and support. “I will say, I’m very disappointed with some of the actions of people who were in opposition of the range,” said Benn. “But overall, I met some very great people and it was my pleasure to have met those people.” For Codrington residents like Dorothy Fletcher who were opposed to the project, hearing the proponent had withdrawn his application was “good news.” “All of the neighbours that were together on this are very relieved,” said Fletcher. Fletcher was just one of the residents
A BRIGHTON CHRISTMAS HAMPER VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE THANK YOU FOR 2016 The “Brighton CHRISTMAS HAMPER VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE” would like to say a really big thank you to the Town of Brighton, and the Town of Smithfield for all their support, donations and hard work. We would also like to say a very special “THANK YOU” to the Businesses, Service Clubs, Organizations, Churches, Individuals and volunteers etc., who donated food, vouchers, mittens, socks, games, toys, money, their efforts and volunteered time are really appreciated. There were about 55 or more volunteers who worked hard putting the Hampers together for pick up day. We had about one third of the volunteers we usually have had the last couple of years this year, so those that were able to help, worked very long hours, and did a fantastic job. It was really great having people donate items to our teenagers. Teenagers are an important part of their families, and they too need to feel special at Christmas. We did 38 teenagers in the Town of Brighton and Town of Smithfield this year, and you made them feel very special. You made Christmas very special for 112 children. There were 130 families who received Christmas Hampers. The donations and help we receive for this wonderful adventure were incredible. I am always in awe of how wonderful, generous and giving people are to others in need. We always have Angels who do that little something special every year to show that miracles really do exist. Had we not received so much help it would not have been possible for us to assist all those who need help at this very special time of year. It was wonderful of Mayor Mark Walas and two of our Police Officers to take time out of their busy schedules to come and help the people carry the food and gifts they were given in their Christmas Hampers to their cars on the pick up day. There were a lot of other volunteers who also worked hard, helping the people carry their Christmas Hampers to their cars. I know the people receiving assistance really appreciated all the efforts of these peoples help on the pick up day. It is hard to find the right words to express how grateful we are for all the help we received. The “BRIGHTON CHRISTMAS HAMPERS” have been done for more than forty-nine years. Your assistance with the “BRIGHTON CHRISTMAS HAMPERS” and the “CHRISTMAS HAMPERS” being done by “SMITHIELD” over the past years, and present is greatly appreciated. We do hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Thank you all again for making Christmas special for so many families. Brighton Christmas Hamper Volunteer Committee.
12 Brighton Independent - Thursday, January 12, 2017
who in recent months spoke publicly about how the range didn’t “belong in a rural agricultural-based community.” Previously Fletcher and other Codrington residents were rallying together and working on a presentation for council, outlining their reasons for opposition which would have been presented at the public meeting for the development, had the proposal made it to that stage. Public consultation was previously anticipated by Benn to occur early in 2017, with outstanding documentation just filed at the end of 2016. “We’re very happy our neighbourhood will not change and will be staying the same wonderful place it’s always been,” said Fletcher. Fletcher and others such as Mike and Betty Ann Clitherow had expressed an ar-
ray of concerns in relation to the proposed range in recent months. Worries ranged from sound and noise, to increased traffic and the caliber of weapons that would be used at the range, as well as environmental concerns. Ultimately the group was worried their way of life and the “tranquility and peacefulness” often enjoyed in the countryside would be at risk with such a proposal. Mike is “glad it [the range] isn’t moving forward.” Benn will be searching for an alternative location for his small arms firing range and the property on Cameron Road will be put up for sale “immediately.” “I’m taking this as a strongly learned lesson and I’m going to move forward – I can’t let this be the end of me,” said Benn.
Rotary Club of Brighton Newsletter for December 2016 Something new we are starting in January is a monthly Social Hour at a local establishment. Feel free to come out and introduce yourself to our members or other guests. Ask us about Rotary and what we do… perhaps we might convince you to help us as we strive towards improving our community’s well-being. We have scheduled these events from 5:15-6:30pm: • Tuesday, Jan. 17@ “Dougall’s By The Bay” • Wednesday, February 15@ “The Smoke House” • Thursday, March 16@ “Vito’s Restaurant” This means that we are also changing our meeting routine…. For the next few months, we will only be having our regular 7:00am meetings at the Community Centre on the 1st, 2nd and 4th (and 5th) Friday of each month. This month was shorter than normal due to the Christmas holidays. We only had one speaker and it was Hugh McDonald of BRING (Brighton’s Refugee Immigrant Needs Group) who gave us a quick history of this volunteer group in terms of organizing the needs and then a very successful
fundraising result of $91,000. But that was just the beginning – they had to find living accommodations; get health cards; visit a Doctor and Dentist (Dr. Loung from Colborne, a Vietnamese refugee himself provided all dental work to the family).

Stirling-Rawdon clerk honoured for years of service BY TERRY MCNAMEE
Stirling – A quarter-century of service as an employee of the Township of Stirling-Rawdon was recognized on Monday, Jan. 9, when Township Clerk Tawnya Donald was honoured by council. Mayor Rodney Cooney said Donald began working for the Town of Rawdon in 1991, and stayed on after Rawdon and Stirling were amalgamated as a township in 1998. During that time, he said, she has held many different positions, working her way up to her present position as township clerk. Cooney said Donald is quiet and seldom states an opinion, but when she does, “It’s usually because we’re headed down the rocky path,” and that she has been a huge help to him, to council and to the entire municipality. The Mayor presented Donald with an inscribed gold watch and a bouquet of flowers. Members of her family, including four granddaughters, were in the audience to see the presentation.

In other council news, January was proclaimed as National Alzheimer Awareness Month in Stirling- Rawdon as requested by the Alzheimer Society of Hastings-Prince Edward. In a letter to council, the society noted that more than 564,000 Canadians are living with some form of dementia, with about 25,000 new cases being diagnosed each year. The proclamation is intended to raise awareness of the disease and to help people create more dementia-friendly communities to reduce the burden on families who are affected. Council also approved the minutes of the December Parks and Recreation Committee meeting, during which the committee agreed to purchase new benches and garbage cans for municipal parks as need. The Business Improvement Association has agreed to cover half the cost for up to $5,000, for these purchases. Additional maintenance also will be needed for the coming season, including but not limited to signage, asphalt sealing on tennis and basketball courts and sand for all play structures.

Two draft budget options on the table for Crowe Valley authority SUE DICKENS
Marmora - "I do believe that we are essentially at some kind of crossroad here," said General Manager Tim Pidduck of the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority (CVCA). He was addressing the board at their recent meeting after presenting two preliminary draft budgets for 2017 for consideration. Option one has a projected increase of 7.96 per cent and option two an increase of six per cent. Pidduck began by stating, "What we've noticed is one of our primary programs, the regulation program . . . .I think it's a good news story in a way if I can put this spin on it, we're doing a really good job with it." The board is currently conducting a service delivery review which impacts the budget too. He said that the "regulation business" of the authority has grown by 20 per cent from 185 permits issued in 2015 to 220 in 2016. Option one (to $742,567) resolves an operational challenge and option two ($724,462) tackles ongoing capital concerns. A cost of living increase of 1.5 per Two preliminary draft budgets for 2017, each with different options, were discussed at a cent is included for staff in both budget options. recent meeting of The Crowe Valley Conservation Authority and the decision was made Pidduck recommended option one. "In to defer until the Jan. 19 meeting. my mind because of the work we've put Sue Dickens/Metroland into the regulations program in particular, the amount of work, time and effort to try to change the program and turn it around and be what it needs to be for a number of www.northumberlandcounty.ca

municipalities, I think if we don't chose the operational option we will be taking a step backward." Board member Jim O'Shea of the Township of North Kawartha commented, "I know that right now our (township) budget for this year has already allocated six per cent. Personally I don't want to have to go and argue for more than that because I don't think it will be listened to." The idea of a road trip by Pidduck (accompanied by Partridge) to each of the 10 municipalities in the watershed that are represented on the board was put on the table for discussion. Board member Emma Kearns of the Township of Paraday said her municipality would want to hear why the 7.96 per cent would be a better option. Vice-Chair Ron Gerow, mayor of the Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen, said his council would also want an explanation "line by line of the 24 per cent increase over the last four years," and of the fee schedule. He stated he is adamant his municipality will not go into debt. He is not sure the road trip will matter, "Because my bank book is empty. I can't balance something that is not there . . . The day of reckoning is here." As the public meeting came to an end the wheels were in motion for the road trip and the two draft budgets were deferred until the next board meeting on Jan. 19 at 10 a.m.

Todd Smith wins PC Party nomination to run for MPP in Bay of Quinte STEPHEN PETRICK
Todd Smith speaks from his seat at Queen’s Park.
Belleville – Progressive Conservatives in the newly formed provincial Bay of Quinte riding have nominated current Prince Edward-Hastings MPP Todd Smith as their candidate for the next provincial election. The news is no surprise, as Smith is in his second term as an MPP and had previously announced his desire to run for reelection in the new riding. The nomination means he’ll represent the PCs on the ballot for the next provincial election, which the ruling Liberals must call by the fall of 2018 at the latest. “It’s an unbelievable honour to be nominated to represent local Progressive Conservatives in the next election,” Smith said, during a recent gathering in Downtown Belleville, where he earned the nomination by acclamation. “The next election is about the future of this province. It’s an honour to represent the people of this region, but it’s my goal to be representing them from the government benches after 2018.” Stephen Petrick/Metroland Bay of Quinte Progressive
Conservative Association President Janet Harnden presided over the meeting that nominated Smith, who was uncontested. Harnden said Smith’s work in his community makes him an asset to both the riding, but especially a future PC government. “We have seen Todd’s work ethic first hand and, as the riding association president, I couldn’t have a better candidate running for us in 2018. We’re going to need Todd helping the party defeat the (Premiere Kathleen) Wynne Liberals ...” After accepting the nomination, Smith took aim at the Liberal Cap-and-Trade program which came into effect on New Year’s Day. Ontario PC Leader Patrick Brown also lauded Smith’s nomination.

Heir to a kingdom exiled to Madoc focus of new play SUE DICKENS
Warkworth- A staged reading telling the "bizarre and true story" of Esca Brooke, reportedly the rightful heir to a kingdom in Sarawak, is coming to the village town hall this month. This new play, "Canadian Rajah," by wellknown playwright Dave Carley of Toronto, tells the true story of Brooke and how he was exiled to Madoc more than a century ago. He should have inherited a kingdom in faraway Sarawak, now part of Malaysia, but instead was exiled to Canada and arrived to live in that village. "Canadian Rajah," starring Chick Reid of Warkworth and "a rising new actor," Jon De Leon from Toronto, is being brought here by Ontario Street Theatre of Port Hope. Reid, who is soon heading off to star in a number of Shaw Festival productions, has a national career that has featured 10 seasons at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, as well as many roles across Canada and the United States - including on Broadway.
Jon De Leon, who plays Esca Brooke, has performed at Stratford Festival and Toronto's Factory Theatre. He has also appeared on a number of television shows, including "Rookie Blue" and "Flashpoint." Carley describes the play as "one of the more bizarre stories in Canadian history. It shouldn't have had a happy ending, but it did." To learn more about this play go to the playwright's website: http://davecarley.com/ plays-full-length/canadian-rajah/ Canadian Rajah is being presented on Sat., Jan. 28 at 7 p.m., and Sun., Jan. 29 at 2 p.m. Both performances are at the Warkworth Town Hall. Tickets are $25, a portion of which goes to Ah! Arts and Heritage Centre of Warkworth. Tickets can be reserved by calling Ontario Street Theatre at 905-885-8042, or emailing ontariostreettheatre@gmail.com They can also be purchased at Ah!; The General Store on Main Street, Warkworth; or online at canadianrajahwarkworth.eventbrite.ca
OPP solve stolen pickup, multiple thefts Marmora - A joint investigation by the Central Hastings OPP and Peterborough County OPP has solved Warkworth’s own Chick Reid will be one of the stars in the new play “Canadian Rajah”. Photo submitted multiple thefts including a stolen pickup truck. In mid-December of 2016 the Central Hastings OPP received numerous complaints of thefts from unlocked vehicles that occurred overnight on Crowe Valley Court, Crawford Street, William Street, Savage Crescent and Forsyth Street in the Municipality of Marmora and Lake. In addition a 2003 blue GMC Sierra 1500 pickup truck was stolen from a driveway on Cameron Street and a green 2000 Honda TRX450 all-terrain vehicle was stoDementia-Hearing Loss Link Warrants Routine Hearing Checks, len from a residential garage on Norwood Road.

loss is associated with accelerated cognitive decline in older adults. Conducted by Johns Hopkins otologist and epidemiologist Frank Lin, M.D., Ph.D. and other hearing experts, the study found that older adults with hearing loss are more likely to develop problems thinking and remembering than older adults whose hearing is normal. Volunteers with hearing loss, underwent repeated cognition tests over six years and were found to have cognitive abilities that declined some 30 to 40 percent faster than in those whose hearing was normal. The researchers also found that the greater the hearing loss, the greater the levels of declining brain function.

in progress on Peterborough County Road 504. The suspect attempted to escape in a stolen pickup truck and officers had to break a window of the truck in order to take custody of the man. As a result 31 year old Shawn Edward Cromwell of Peterborough was arrested and charged with: break, enter and theft under $5000; possession of property obtained by crime under $5000 (stolen pickup); fail to comply with probation order (two counts); and obstructing police Cromwell was held in custody pending a bail hearing in the Ontario Court of Justice in Peterborough. Members of Central Hastings OPP and Peterborough County OPP further conducted a joint investigation which resulted in the recovery of property involved in the thefts from vehicles and the stolen pickup truck from the Marmora area. As a result Cromwell has also been charged with: break and enter; theft of a vehicle Under $5000 (ATV); theft under $5000 (four counts).
Similarly, a 2011 study found that seniors with hearing loss are significantly more likely to develop dementia over time than those who retain their hearing. The study also found that the more hearing loss they had, the higher their likelihood of developing dementia. As people move through middle age and their later years, it is reasonable for them to get their hearing tested annually. If there is a hearing loss, it is best to take it seriously and treat it.

10 of 22 Build Belleville projects remain, as 2017 begins BY STEPHEN PETRICK
Belleville – It’s been about three years now since construction workers started putting on orange vests and shovels started hitting the ground, as a result of the major city investment known as Build Belleville. Build Belleville is the title for a collection of 22 major infrastructure projects, which are expected to collectively cost the city taxpayers more than $92 million over several years. But it’s necessary work, as it’s allowing the city to replace crumbling bridges and outdated watermains and build new roads to accommodate traffic growth. When the calendar flipped to 2017, 12 of 22 projects on the list had been completed, as outlined at www.buildbelleville.ca The titles of the completed projects are as follows: Tracey/Sideny street intersection; North Park Gardens, the Bell/Sidney Street intersection; Old Highway 2, Old Madoc Road, Boundary Road, Farnham Road, North East Feedermain, Solar Fit, College Street East extension, West Riverside Trail, Environmental Remediation, and West Riverside Trail. Two more projects – both high profile ones – are well on their way to completion. Only cosmetic work remains for the Bay Bridge Road and Dundas Street West project. The $17.4 million project involved the construction of a new Bay Bridge and the widening of Dundas Street. The road work is complete and work to make the area more aesthetically pleasing will con-
tinue in the spring. The City Centre Revitalization Project, meanwhile, is two-third complete. Front Street, from Bridge Street to the northern tip has been completely revamped. Phase 3 work will take place on Front Street, south of Bridge Street, and on Bridge Street, from Front to Pinnacle. That work is expected to be split over the next two summers. Work on the final eight projects is expected to ramp up over the coming months. Here’s a look at four of those projects – Herchimer Avenue, Bronk Road, Mineral Road/ Maitland Drive and Foxboro Bridge. We’ll report on four other projects – Grass Boulevard, the Northeast Industrial Park, the Wastewater Treatment Plant and the new Belleville Police station – in a future edition.

It’s primarily a wholesale market, and its stalls are piled high with articles ready to be sold to retailers to be resold to consumers; however, some vendors will sell to individual consumers, too, and the prices tend to be cheaper there.

Crowe Valley Conservation Authority debates service delivery Marmora- A service delivery review was on the table at a recent meeting of the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority, and it led to a great deal of discussion by board members. "Do we really need to continue to be in this business/service?" was the first of 10 questions that were asked of neighbouring authorities to help with the process. The discussion soon made it obvious that some board members are struggling with how to move forward. "I'd like to compliment staff on what is here. It's given a ton of in-
formation I certainly didn't have and has raised some questions," said Cathy Redden, representing the Municipality of Trent Hills. She provided the template of questions for staff to use. "There's a lot to be learned by borrowing work from other conservation authorities." Hiring a consultant for the process was debated. General manager Tim Pidduck of the CVCA told the board, "I think, collectively, we can come up with our own terms of reference without too much trouble." Vice-chair Ron Gerow, Mayor of
the Township of Havelock-BelmontMethuen, spoke at length. "Whatever road the board is going to go down in term of the service review ... I just want to make sure that members all know that my municipal council and my personal view on this is we still have concerns." Budget considerations were also brought forward. "I don't have a money tree and any money I might pick off the tree, the leaves, it has got to go to something really meaningful," noted Gerow. Board member Jim O'Shea, representing the Township of North Kawartha, commented, "To me, an
awful lot of what we're doing here is really about money and having enough funds to survive on. I'm quite a believer that any organization should be, as much as possible, self supporting." He talked about the need to re-examine the fee structure. "If we're not getting the money from the government and we already get it from the municipalities, then our only other option is the fee structure to make up the difference." Gerow responded, "We've already increased our rates structure; we've created new rates that weren't even in existence, and yet we're still fall-
ing behind. That is a major red flag for me." Suzanne Partridge, CVCA board chair representing the Municipality of Highlands East, commented, "This is the final year of the six per cent increase across the board that municipalities agreed to, so we have to know what we're doing next year." As the discussion concluded, the board voted and approved a motion to move forward with terms of reference for the service delivery review process and that staffs bring a report with a timeline to the next meeting, which will be held on Jan. 19 at 10 a.m.

First in speakers series is tonight at Ivanhoe The Hastings Stewardship Council is launching its first event in its 2017 Winter Speaker Series at the Huntington Hall in Ivanhoe. Titled ‘Our Watershed Health and BioGeography’ the first in the speaker series events takes place Jan. 12 with Tim Trustham, Quinte Conservation, and Janet Noyes, Lower Trent Conservation, as speakers. After a dry-as-dust summer, “we could all use some enlightenment about our watershed,” said a release from the Stewardship Council. “On January 12, come to Our Watershed Health and BioGeography, a multi-faceted presentation on the Quinte and Lower Trent Watersheds.” Tim Trustham, ecologist and planner with Quinte Conservation, will present a biogeographical approach to learning about the watershed. Plants and animals often vary along geographical lines, for instance, certain plants grow best at a particular elevation. Geological factors (such as bedrock and soils) relate directly to biological features (such as plant and animal species). All of these things interact and influence watershed condi-
tions and health. His slide show will illustrate how this works. Janet Noyes, manager of water resources with Lower Trent Conservation, will present an update on the low water conditions for the Lower Trent watershed (all seven municipalities including Centre Hastings, Stirling-Rawdon and City of Quinte West). Noyes will also give an overview of the Ontario Low Water Response Program and the roles played by the province, conservation authorities and municipalities. The council invites the public to come out to learn about the region’s watersheds on Thursday, Jan. 12 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Huntington Veterans Community Hall, 11379 Highway 62, in Ivanhoe. An entrance fee of $5 per person (or a donation) will help cover costs. Children are free. The Hastings Stewardship Council “promotes a healthy and sustainable environment that contributes to the viability of agricultural and natural resources in Hastings County.” For more information, contact Matt Caruana at 613-3919034 or info@hastingsstewardship.ca. Or visit hastingsstew- This frog at the Frink Centre, Thurlow, is a sign of a healthy wetland. ardship.ca.

Campbellford – Rotary’s highest recognition of a person’s outstanding commitment to their club and community, the Paul Harris Fellowship, has been awarded to local businessman Scott Drummond. Marion Fennell, director with the Rotary Club of Campbellford and a past president, made the presentation at their annual holiday celebration dinner at the Rotary hall. “Scott is a longtime member of this club and has always supported the club in many ways as well as being a big supporter of the community. Scott sponsors soccer teams, baseball and hockey teams, the high school, the hospital foundation, the rotary golf tournaments and more,” she said, adding, “Scott I know these are only a few of the people and organizations that you

Accepting the award, he said, “I don’t have much to say. I never feel like I am a very good Rotarian compared to everybody else seeing all the work that everybody else does to what I do and I am pretty humbled so thank you very much.”

Hitting the blades benefits food bank in Quinte West BY ERIN STEWART
Quinte West – Public skating in Quinte West has become a popular activity this season after the city decided to make public skating free for the community, requesting a donation for the Trenton Care and Share Food Bank instead. “It has been, in our opinion, a huge success,” said Bob Forder, manager of buildings and facilities in Quinte West. “To date we’ve had over 2,100 skaters and they’ve brought in over 1,000 lbs. of food for the food bank, so we’ve seen a marked increase over the past,” he said. Having 2,100 skaters at this point in the season is about three times more than what they saw last year, said Forder, estimating they had about 500-750 skaters at this point last season. It’s great to see more people of all ages out to skate this season, said Forder, and they’ve even needed to have double the personal to man the public skating times this year because of the increase in people. “Let’s get an active community and let’s utilize the ice, the community is out, they’re staying active,” he said. Forder said he is hoping to keep public skating free in the future as well. “I’m hoping that we don’t diminish it in any way, shape or form,” he said. “It’s beyond
my expectation and I’m sure that council will be very pleased with the numbers when I report them.” With ice now being kept in the Duncan McDonald Memorial Gardens year round, Forder said he would also like free public skating to continue into the summer months. Jennifer Mitchell, from Carrying Place, brought her children to the Frankford Arena to skate during the Tim Horton’s sponsored free skate on Thursday Jan. 5, where about 30 people were out to skate. Mitchell said she has brought her kids out to skate a couple times this season and she appreciates that it’s free. “It’s good because people get out and get active,” she said. “We did come last year and I think the year before as well, there’s more people this year, definitely more.” Mitchel said the free public skating times could be better advertised to get the word out there but having free public skating is definitely an incentive for people to get out more often. “It’s free so you’re more likely to come more often as well,” she said. “They should try to continue it if they can and get more people out and active in the community, that would be a good idea.” To find out the free public skating times in Frankford and Trenton, go to quintewest.ca and click on the community events calendar.

Rebels earn first point of season, in their 29th game JOHN CAMPBELL
Campbellford-Colborne – They didn’t win. But they didn’t lose, and that’s cause for celebration, as the Campbellford Rebels earned their first point of the season, tying the Amherstview Jets 2-2 Jan. 8. However, even that small breakthrough in what’s been a dismal season for the Provincial Junior Hockey League team was tinged with disappointment because Campbellford gave up the tying goal with 43 seconds to play after the home team had pulled its goalie. Andrew White-Copegog, with his second goal of the game, had given the Rebels the lead at 11:51 of the third period. Matthew Tarbutt and Drew Underhill assisted on both of his markers. The Jets were no doubt dismayed they needed a last-minute tally to collect a point, having outshot Campbellford 3624 in regulation and 8-3 in overtime but Brandon Soucy delivered a stalwart performance for the Rebels, whose record is now 0-26-1 in the Tod Division. The Port Hope Panthers were respon-
sible for the 26th loss, a 5-0 whitewash a day earlier at Campbellford. The Panthers,29-0-0, outshot their hosts 62-7, with Rebel netminder Adam McCormack bearing the entire brunt of their relentless assault. Campbellford’s next home game is Jan. 14, with the Gananoque Islanders providing the opposition. Game time is 7:30 p.m. Stars lose two straight The Northumberland Stars dropped a pair and failed to advance in the Greater Metro Junior A Hockey League. They were blanked 3-0 by the Attack in Toronto Jan. 7 and edged 6-4 at the Keeler Centre by the London Lakers Jan. 4. Matt Davies had a pair of a goals for the Stars. Robin Garibay and Malik Henry had one apiece. Austin Trotter and Evan Wasylyk each garnered two assists. Ivan Perakov and Curtis Campbell shared goaltending duties and yielded three goals apiece. Colborne hosts Tottenham Jan. 18. Game time is 7:30 p.m.
