an estimated cost of $226,000.

It will pocket most of the savings, about 89 per cent annually, for the next 10 years, to recover the cost of its investment.

The Montreal-based company estimated the township will save close to $38,000 the first year but that amount might prove to be even larger, once an investments grade audit of the existing lighting system is completed that could point to “greater efficiencies,� staff said.

That estimate was “very conservative,�

RealTerm Energy’s associate director of business development, Michelle Hjort, told council January 14.

She said “LED savings are significant over the existing technology ... typically about 67 per cent.�

The agreement was brokered by LAS (Local Authority Services), a wholly owned, not-for-profit subsidiary of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario, which developed the service for its members to “protect existing assets, remove risk and maximize savings while upgrading to top quality LED lighting.�

The township will be guaranteed the money promised to it in the agreement, still to be drawn up, even if projected energy savings are not realized. “You will have a guaranteed shared savings for 10 years, regardless of what happens,� Hjort said. “If

there is a hurricane that takes out all your streetlights, we’ll still give you that money. We take on the risk.�

Mayor Marc Coombs said there have been “all kinds of horror stories� about LED lighting when it has been installed in communities, with “everybody screaming because it lights too much (or is) too dark.�

Hjort said those issues have been resolved and today’s LED luminaries do as good a job or better than the units they replace. “LED is obviously the way to go for street lighting,� Coombs said, with the cost of electricity “expected to go through the roof the next five years. Whatever we can do to cut our costs on hydro is a real benefit for the community.�

Councillor Ed Van Egmond asked if private individuals, such as farmers whose barnyard lights are “terrible,� could arrange to have their lighting replaced as well when the township’s network is being upgraded.

Hjort said she would investigate and “sort out the details� of setting up “some kind of group buy discount. It sounds like a great idea.�

She said the new lights, which will replace the cobra-style fixtures, should be installed by the start of summer.

Hjort said she will also price what it would cost to replace the decorative lights in downtown Colborne.

News – Brighton – Another large theft of copper from its compound has prompted Brighton Recycling to ante up more money for information that will point to who’s responsible.

Owner Scott Blackburn announced last week he’s prepared to pay anywhere from $500 to $10,000 to find out and put behind bars whoever stole almost 2,000 pounds of copper cable from his business overnight January 8-9.

Video cameras he has installed “everywhere� on his property showed three people arriving around 11 p.m. and staying on site until about 2:30 a.m., he said.

They had to cut locks in order to get inside.

They took about $6,000 worth of copper.

Blackburn offered a reward of $5,000

Graham has arranged for a fund raiser to be held this Sunday as part of the 20thannual Brighton Winterfest. The beneďŹ t concert for God’s Little Angels, featuring local performers The Lenses and R & R Folk, will take place at Trinity St. Andrew’s United Church, beginning at 2 p.m. Tickets are $10 at the door and all proceeds will be delivered directly to the orphanage by the Brighton residents.

Graham said “there is still a lot of poverty� in the rural areas of Haiti, and “there are parents who have no choice but to bring their children� to the orphanage to be looked after. “They just don’t have enough.�

Some of the children are left to be adopted while others, sick from malnutrition, are nursed to better health before being returned to their families, she said.

Haiti was ravaged by an earthquake in 2010 that ofďŹ cials there said cost more than 300,000 people their lives. It also left 1.5 million living in tent camps.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Citizen upset at Brighton It’s not Winterfest Re: Statistically councillors without the 8 Wing speaking: letter to editor ‘Anti-mayor’ voting band

By Ray Yurkowski

News – Brighton – At least one councillor took it on the chin, twice, at the regular municipal council meeting on Monday night.

“The new word of the week appears to be ‘rogue,’” said David Green during the ‘Citizen Comments’ portion at the beginning of the proceedings. He was referring to a letter to the editor in the January 16 issue of the Independent, penned by Councillors John Martinello and Mary Tadman.

“Some reactionists say they were deceitful in their comments,” said Green.

“When one councillor makes the same erroneous comment twice, it makes you wonder when he might learn.”

“It was agreed around this very table, that both the economic development department and the fire department be managed by their respective plans,” he reminded council. “Plans that we paid money for.

“The staffing in the economic development department was recommended by the Community Development Plan and we’ve applied for funding for that. Staffing for the fire department was decided by the Fire Master Plan and how can we say otherwise, unless the intent was to

deceive the readers.”

Green says he checked the online source, Wikipedia, for a definition of the term, “hundreds of thousands of dollars” in regard to what Martinello and Tadman call, “unsubstantiated vehicle and equipment requests” during the 2014 budget deliberations.

“Hundreds of thousands means more than two hundred thousand dollars,” explained Green. “I question why these councillors are using Rob Ford math here in Brighton.”

“Hundreds of thousands of dollars,” he concluded. “Misleading, incorrect, outrageous and certainly deceitful. Maybe they were looking for the shock and awe factor. It was very disappointing to read.”

At the end of the meeting, during ‘Question Period,’ Green took Martinello to task for engaging “in ambush politics” during a monthly report from Fire Chief Lloyd Hutchinson.

Martinello asked Hutchinson about a complaint from a citizen in regard to a fire department call in November.

Green contended the question was unfair, and “one that no one had a chance to prepare for.”

Hutchinson himself was surprised by the query saying he was “not aware of any complaints about fire calls.”

Dear Editor, This is in regards to the cancellation of the Trenton 8 Wing band for Winterfest, Sunday, January 26th at Trinity St. Andrews United Church.

I have received many phone calls from seniors disappointed like myself that another group has taken over the church that Sunday. The church has always been booked for 20 years the last Sunday of January. Why are they doing this?

There are 52 Sundays in the year.

Why did we have to cancel the band?

Why is this group advertising in the Winterfest program?

When I questioned Emily Rowley, she said she had to cancel this band as no other church would take them. Why should we have to give up previous plans?

There was no charge to the band concert, but food for the food bank was

appreciated. We always got tons of food.

What about that loss?

When Claude started Winterfest, he asked different people for donations.

Mark Walas, when funeral director, paid for the band each year from his own money. As this is the last Winterfest, I know the band would have made it special.

I have lived in Brighton since 1952 and never expressed my feelings in the paper but I know how hard Claude worked for this and the past three years Derek Madden and Doug Platt did an excellent job. I’m sorry it ended it this way.

I realize the group going to Haiti is a good Christian project and many of my friends and I would have helped financially but they chose the wrong Sunday to use our church.

Doreen Thompson, Brighton

Brighton council is operating as it should

Dear Editor, Re: Dysfunctional council.

Dysfunctional? Wake up world. If council never disagreed on anything, I would figure they made all of their decisions in a back room somewhere and only used council as a rubber stamp. Since each person on council represents us, don’t you think there might be some disagreements? If we had every resident of Brighton at a meeting, my guess is there would be more disagreements, a lot more and maybe a fistfight or two.

It is council’s job to discuss, get facts and come to a majority rules situation. Might be right, might be wrong but that was the way they saw it then.

Some of us don’t like it when people don’t agree with us. We, as one of our councillors was quoted in the Toronto Star article about yard sales, and I quote, “Buck up.”

I for one do not agree with everything council says and does but let them argue as much as they need to. So far, Brighton has one of the lowest municipal tax rates in the province. Keep up the good work and keep democracy working as loud and clear as necessary. I find it great that the silent majority is not on our council.

Alan Russell, Brighton

block overstated

Dear Editor, We have to take issue with reporter Ray Yurkowski’s conclusion in the Jan. 9 Independent that the “muchballyhooed” anti-Mayor Mark Walas voting block has been “somewhat overstated.” He makes his case by tabulating the recorded council votes over the past three years, breaking them down into 4-3, 5-2, and unanimous results, and concluding that the 4-3 “block” carried the day only 23.5 per cent of the time.

What the story fails to tell us is what those votes were about. As any observer of municipal politics knows, many issues before council are routine and pretty much rubber-stamped. What really count are decisions about services, staffing, capital expenditures, things usually that cost us money, and which speak to an underlying philosophy of governance and vision.

Numbers, without context, are convenient but suspect. It’s like counting the cars in the municipal lot beside Sobey’s every Sunday at midnight and concluding that it is grossly underused.

One of us, a newcomer to Brighton, attended two recent council meetings marked by the characteristic 4-3 votes, one of them expelling the mayor. The other has attended many meetings since the last election.

We have both talked to other Brightonians who have attended meetings regularly over the past three years.

The consensus is that this voting pattern is, indeed, the overriding characteristic of this council.

Maybe Ray Yurkowski could dig a little deeper and examine the voting on issues that really count to Brighton taxpayers. Statistically speaking, it would be more credible.

So the peace talks get underway in Switzerland this week after all, and the omens for peace are not that bad. Unless, of course, you were also hoping for the overthrow of the brutal regime of Bashar al-Assad and the emergence of a democratic Syria, in which case the omens are positively awful.

The breakthrough may not happen at Geneva this week, but the Russians and the Americans are now on the same side (although the US cannot yet bring itself to say publicly that it is backing Assad). Moreover, some of the rebels are getting ready to change sides. It won’t be fast and it won’t be pretty, but there’s a decent chance that peace, in the shape of an Assad victory, will come to Syria within a year or two.

What has made this possible is the jihadis, the fanatical extremists of the al-Nusra Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, who have frightened both the United States and a great many ordinary Syrians into seeing Assad’s regime as the lesser evil.

Two years ago, it still seemed possible that Assad could lose. The rebels had the support of the United States, Turkey and powerful Sunni Arab states like Egypt and Saudi Arabia, and they still talked about a democratic, inclusive Syria. Assad’s only friends were Iran, Russia and Lebanon’s Hezbollah.

But then the jihadis showed up, alienating local people with their extreme version of sharia law and scaring the pants off the United States with their allegiance to al-Qaeda. It took

the United States quite a while to admit to itself that it does not actually want Assad to fall if that means putting the jihadis in power, but it has finally grasped the concept.

More recently, a “war-within-the-war” has broken out among the rebels, with the secular groups fighting the jihadis and the jihadi groups fighting among themselves. So far in January more people have been killed in this internecine rebel war (over a thousand) than in the war against the regime. And the US and Russia are working on a deal that would swing most of the non-jihadi rebels over to the regime’s side.

General Salim Idris, the commander of the Free Syrian Army (the main non-jihadi force on the battlefield), said last month that he and his allies were dropping the demand that Assad must leave power before the Geneva meeting convened. Instead, they would be content for Assad to go at the end of the negotiation process, at which time the FSA’s forces would join with those of the regime in an offensive against the Islamists.

He was actually signalling that the Free Syrian Army is getting ready to change sides. There will have to be amnesties and financial rewards for those who change sides, of course, but these things are easily arranged. And Assad will not leave power “at the end of the negotiation process.”

The jihadis are not at Geneva this week, of course; just the Russians and the Americans, and the Assad regime and the Syrian National coalition (the Free Syrian Army’s political front), and a few odds and sods to make up the numbers. It is an ideal environment for the regime and the secular rebels to discuss quietly how they might make a deal, with their Russian and American big brothers in attendance to smooth the path.

The fighting in Syria will continue for many months, even if a joint front of the regime and the FSA is formed to drive out the foreign extremists and eliminate the native-born ones.

In practice the end game will probably be even more ragged than that, with all sorts of local rebel groups trying to cut their own deals or holding out until the bitter end. But the final outcome has become clear, and it is no longer years away.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

What the dickens is going on Dear Editor, I don’t want to offend anyone, but what the Dickens is going on? A little bird told me, actually it was a very happy and excited pigeon, that there is a plan afoot to have a beautiful bronze statue of Roy Bonisteel as the centrepiece of a tribute garden to be set up behind City Hall. The statue would only cost $139,000 if the land was donated, and the money would be raised by donations from the community, i.e. you and me.

All of this was presented and passed at the last council meeting with very little advance notice to the community.

Listen folks, after the Pamela Wallin and Mike Duffy episodes, do you really think that this is the time to be building statues to former CBC journalists? What criteria should one use when deciding who should be honoured with a statue?

As good a person Roy Bonisteel was, he wasn’t a war hero, a leading politician, or an honoured jurist: the type of people that generally are honoured with statues when they die. He was a recipient of the Order of Canada but after Conrad Black, Alan Eagleson, and Steve Fonyo is that still a big deal? He was a citizen court judge (a patronage appointment), and has many honourary degrees. His main claim to fame was his years of broadcasting on radio and television, as well as authoring several books ... and, I submit, his beautiful head

of thick wavy white hair.

I can’t think of any other recipient of the Order of Canada, jurist, or broadcaster that has been put on a pedestal in the recent past. That goes for politicians too, with the unfortunate exception of Jack Layton, who got there, it seems, in the rush of his supporters to raise him to sainthood before he could perform his first miracle. Wait, maybe getting the statue was the first miracle.

Now, if it’s really necessary to have a statue in the tribute garden to honour a local personality, I suggest that we take a closer look at the qualifications of some of our other citizens.

Being a military town, I’m sure that we probably have some serious contenders; people that have spent many years serving the country, the community, or humanity.

I don’t want to boast, but I have some qualifications. I’d offer my name, but the last time I did, everybody laughed out loud. But I digress.

What the Dickens is going on? Surely, for that kind of money, there’s some cancer detecting or fighting equipment that our hospital really needs and we can attach a memorial bronze plaque to it in Roy’s name.

Justice prevails after NYC arrest

By Stephen Petrick

Editorial - . A group of civil rights lawyers stood on the steps of New York’s City Hall on Wednesday, January 15 to celebrate victory in what they believe is the biggest class action lawsuit related to a political protest in the history of the United States.

I read the coverage of this in American media last week with interest because I was one of the participants in this lawsuit.

On the afternoon of August 30, 2004, I, along with about 1,200 other innocent people was arrested in Manhattan in one of a number of illegal sweeping arrests made by the New York Police Department. In these arrests, groups of protesters, journalists and passersby were indiscriminately lured into areas that were eventually surrounded by police, who handcuffed each person and dragged them off to a makeshift jail with decrepit conditions. The jail was an abandoned bus station.

I ended up spending the night, sleeping on an oil-stained floor.

The event happened amid one of the most politically intense weeks in modern U.S. history. Thousands of protesters had travelled to New York in response to the Republican National Convention that week. George W. Bush was seeking a second term as president and his cronies were gathered at New York’s famous Madison Square Garden for several days of self-congratulatory media-ops.

But the event raised the ire of many Americans who had opposed the Iraq war and argued the self-described “war president” was capitalizing on the fear still gripping New Yorkers following the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

At the time, I was in between semesters of my photojournalism studies at Loyalist College. I travelled to New York to visit a friend, thinking I could photograph protests while there to boost my portfolio. I took the subway to the site of the former World Trade Center that day with no idea I was about to get arrested.

I found a group of several hundred protesters who were about to walk to the Garden. As the group began to march, I attempted to rush to the front of the line, so I could photograph the group moving forward. Upon following a police officer’s orders to move onto a sidewalk I was arrested. Years later I participated in the deposition in a New York City law office and saw a video of myself crossing the street legally at a green light. From then on, I knew I had a pretty good chance of winning a settlement based on an unjustified arrest.

After 30 hours in the slammer divided between this bus station and a police station jail downtown, I exited to the applause of human rights watchdogs who were waiting outside. I gave my name and email address to a legal team and stayed in touch with the group. The charges I was given of “obstructing traffic” and “refusal to move” were dropped when I attended a New York court a month later and accepted an “Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal.” That’s essentially an agreement that your case will close once you’ve gone six months without another arrest.

After nearly a decade of legal warbling, mostly by NYPD lawyers who knew they would lose and therefore resorted to desperate attempts to delay the case, a settlement was reached. I’m not privy to all the details, but I’m reading in New York media that it’s costing New York City about $18 million; a number that represents the total sum of one large class action lawsuit, and several individual lawsuits plus legal fees.

Journalists don’t normally participate in these types of lawsuits; our job is to report the news, not be part of it. However, I joined this lawsuit because I was not working for any media organization at the time and had nothing to lose by participating. If anything, it would teach me about the inner-workings of the American legal system and a give me a great story to tell.

But, honestly, the biggest reason I joined was I thought it was important for the sake of democracy. I’m not normally one for conspiracy theories but I believe these arrests were made for the convenience of the Republican Party (the city was then being led by Republican Mayor Michael Bloomberg). That’s a problem because police are supposed to protect the entire public; not just those from one political denomination. This lawsuit sends a message to the NYPD that’s it’s wrong to trample freedom of speech rights. And it’s a message other police forces in free democracies should take note of. It’s too late for Toronto Police, who have since drawn criticism for similar massive arrests at the G20 summit in 2010, but maybe not too late for others.

Upon returning home in 2004 I wrote a column about my experience to warn people about the dangers of attending a political protest. It ended with the line, “In the United States you can go to jail for exercising the freedom of speech the country goes to war to defend.” I’m writing this column because I feel obliged to update that statement. Perhaps in the United States you can still go to jail for exercising freedom of speech, but at least you can sue the pants off the police.

THE DEADLINE FOR DISPLAY ADVERTISING IS MONDAY AT 11:00AM Brighton Independent - Thursday, January 23, 2014 7

Cramahe’s poor report card on condition of assets doesn’t tell full story News – Cramahe Township – The municipality has received a grade of D+ for the overall state of its infrastructure and the $1.1 million gap that exists between what the township spends annually and what it should to keep its paved roads, bridges, water mains, storm and sanitary sewers in good repair.

To make up the difference, says a newly drafted asset management plan, Cramahe Township should increase property taxes 2.2 per cent annually for the next 10 years to achieve the full funding required to sustain the infrastructure over the long term.

But the situation isn’t as bad as portrayed in a plan prepared by Public Sector Digest and presented to council January 14. That’s because some of the plan’s field condition data needs to be updated.

Bridges and culverts, for example, received the worst grade, F, because 86 per cent were found to be in poor to critical condition, based on their age alone. Not factored in, however, were results of a 2013 bridge study received in December, which Public Sector Digest’s director of business development, Matt Dawe, told council will probably raise the grade to at least a C. The more complete your data is “the better decisions you’re going to make at the end of the day,� he said.  The total replacement cost of all the assets Cramahe owns was estimated at $86.8 million, with roads, valued at $47 million, representing 54 per

cent of the total. The worth of the services they provide works out to $43,846 per household.

Mayor Marc Coombs pointed out the municipality has spent $6 million on its roads over the past seven years, which the plan fails to reflect in giving them a grade of D, in large part because the township should be spending $757,000 more a year than it does to sustain its road network.

Dawe explained the plan doesn’t take into account one-time grants the municipality obtained to help pay for work done on the roads, because that’s not money you can count on in making plans for the future.

Deputy Mayor Jim Williams pointed out the municipality’s pollution control plant was rated as being in fair condition, based on its age, as part of the sanitary sewer network that was given a D+ grade overall, even though the township has spent $6 million on improvements to the Colborne facility.

Treasurer Mora Chatterson said that data hasn’t been entered yet, explaining the plan is “a work in progress.�

The provincial government told municipalities they must have asset management plans in place in order to support applications for funding, and they were given until the end of last month to submit them.

In its 215-page report, Public Sector Digest also advised the township to look at relining sanitary and storm sewer pipes where possible to extend their operational life, rather than replace them,

which can cost three times as much.

Williams said he favoured making up the infrastructure deficit over 15 years rather than 10 because the recommended 2.2 per cent hike in taxes would be in addition to tax increases that will be necessary to cover higher operational costs. “There will an outcry from all the taxpayers� if the increases become too much, he said, and the municipality can’t count on the federal and provincial governments for help. “That is our dilemma,� he said. �I know we’re not alone. Every municipality in the province has a large infrastructure deficit, some a lot larger than ours.�

Dawe said Cramahe’s situation is “actually pretty good compared to some� of the 85 other municipalities his company has worked with in preparing asset management plans.

Councillor Ed Van Egmond complained it’s an “incomplete...flawed report� because “it just looks so bad on the municipality,� and if people don’t understand there will be changes made to it, “it’s going to cause some crossfire.�

Coombs said the plan is “a living document that is meant to be updated all the time.

Resident requests apology for councillor’s comment

By Ray Yurkowski

News – Brighton – A local resident didn’t get the apology he was looking for at the regular municipal council meeting on Monday night.

At issue was a comment made by Councillor Craig Kerr during ‘Question Period’ at a council meeting on November 18.

After a council decision to retain Local Authority Services for the provision of an investigator for closed door meetings, he asked all councillors if in the performance of their duty, they felt it necessary to meet with other councillors outside of regular meetings. “I will say that this question is really posed in the same vein as, ‘have you stopped beating your wife,’� said Kerr. “It is not his prerogative to insult citizens with such an offensive remark,� wrote the resident in a letter requesting a public apology. “Mayor, you were here that evening and, clearly, as the chair, you didn’t see anything wrong with the comment that was made,� said Councillor Tom Rittwage. “So I will stick by your inaction and just vote to receive (the letter).� “I don’t think I’m in control of what people say,� said Mayor Mark Walas. “I’m kind of shocked by the comment.� “You do control what people say in these meetings because you’re the chair,� countered Rittwage. “I’m not prepared to ask someone to apologize two months after the fact,� said Deputy Mayor Mike Vandertoorn.

new dog to an established pet and the staggering cost of operations.

As she quotes Charles Schulz, the creator of the famous Peanuts cartoon, “Happiness is a warm puppy,� she also warns readers to be careful of taking a small dog to bed as a person can easily roll over and crush a tiny pet.

With tales of such breeds as Basset Hounds, Dachshunds, Norwich Terriers, Fox Terriers, Boston Bulls, Brussels Griffs and, of course, Chichuchus, Danielle Steel employs humour and compassion to share tales of love between humans and their pets.

A good example of her humour is found in chapter one where she tells of getting an adorable three-monthold Basset Hound puppy named Elmer.  With sad, droopy eyes, large paws and the typical long ears, Elmer would trot along until his one paw would come down on an ear, causing him to trip and bonk his nose on the floor.  “...and he would sit down and bark at me with an accusing look, as though I had tripped him, which I swear I didn’t.�

For dog lovers of any type, Danielle Steel’s Pure Joy is a book well worth reading.

The Green Porch opens this weekend

By Ray Yurkowski

Brighton – Melissa Warburton admits she is terrified.

This weekend her new venture, The Green Porch, will be open for business. There’ll be no fanfare and no official ribbon cutting, she’ll just open the doors at 10 a.m. on Saturday (January 25) and in the spirit of Winterfest, hot apple cider will be offered throughout the grand opening.

“I think it’s the way the world has to go and I wanted to take the opportunity to do something I believe in.� “I’m kind of nervous,� says Warburton. “There have been a few sleepless nights but it’s an exciting venture at the same time. I’ve never done anything like this but it’s all coming together.�

The new business came about as a result of losing her job. Last summer, after 13 years in the financial services field, her position was considered redundant. She has never really had to apply for employment and the prospect of job hunting was daunting. A job at a grocery store led to a job at a bank. That led to a job at a financial services centre.

“It was emotional,� said Warburton. “I was 32 and didn’t even have a resume. I honestly lost track of how many jobs I applied for and I didn’t hear back from one.�

And when you’re a mother, a wife and a homeowner, minimum wage just doesn’t keep up with the bills.

That’s when the decision was made to try something new. In November, with the help of municipal economic development manager Elisha Purchase, she circulated a survey. “I was trying to see what kind of products people would like and to see if it was feasible to open the store,� explained Warburton and the results were positive.

Her store will offer primitive and artisan designs, dĂŠcor and collectibles; most are handcrafted by area craftspeople. And a lot of research has gone into trying to find the right environmentally-friendly items to stock the shelves.

Why eco-friendly? “I’ve always liked salvaging and repurposing, but until I was laid off and actually got to spend time researching and learning about certain products, I was finding things I would never have thought of before,� she said. “I think it’s the way the world has to go and I wanted to take the opportunity to do something I believe in.�

It even comes down to the candles. “I did not know how paraffin wax was made and that’s what most ev-

eryday candles are made out of,� she said. “It’s a petroleum byproduct and they were all through my house.�

Researchers have found that paraffin-based candles emit toxic chemicals like toluene and benzene. While lighting a candle once in awhile is unlikely to pose a health threat, frequently lighting many candles in an unventilated space could lead to prob-

lems.

The Green Porch will be selling soy wax candles, which do not. And soy candles burn up to 30 to 50 per cent longer.

Warburton does have an appreciation for the arts. “I’d sooner spend money on something an artist has created and put their craft, effort and love into than buy a

cookie-cutter item from a department store,� she said. “And I think there are a lot of people who feel the same way.�

Located at 40 Prince Edward St., The Green Porch is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Thursday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Resident requests apology for comment Continued from page 8

That’s when Walas interrupted and cautioned Martinello, saying, “That’s not necessary.� “Anybody sitting around this table can raise a point of order if anyone in this room is alleged to have been done wrong,� offered Rittwage.

Before calling the vote, Walas had the final say. “Given the world we live in today, I think a better choice of words could

have been found,� he said.

In a recorded vote, Vandertoorn, Rittwage and Councillor Emily Rowley approved receiving the correspondence with Mayor Mark Walas and Councillor John Martinello opposed. Councillor Craig Kerr did not take part in the discussion, declaring a conflict of interest, and Councillor Mary Tadman was not present at the meeting.

First Walk for Memories held in Trenton for Alzheimer’s

By Kate Everson

News – Quinte West – The ďŹ rst Walk for Memories was held in Trenton at the YMCA on Sunday, January 19. “There is no set distance,â€? explained coordinator Hannah Brown. “People just walk around the gym and get involved in activities. Or they can just sit and have breakfast. It’s all about coming together.â€?

Participants came from Quinte West and Brighton with pledges to raise funds for the Alzheimer’s Society of Belleville-Hastings-Quinte. Mayor John Williams, MP Rick Norlock and MPP Rob Milligan followed the piper Alex Robertson to lead the participants around the gymnasium.

Seasons Dufferin supplied a continental breakfast of coffee and treats for the walkers. “We’re very pleased to be part of this great event,� Louise Sandercock, from Team Dufferin, said with a smile.

Norlock said he knows the effect Alzheimers has on the caregiver. His wife is a registered nurse and she managed

nursing homes with these challenges. He said events like this will make people more aware and teach caregivers how to cope, as well as raise money for research.

Milligan said his grandmother had Alzheimer’s and he knows that many people here have been touched in some way. He hopes more will participate next year.

Williams thanked Brown for coming to council and talking about this new event in Quinte West. He noted that representatives Councillor Leslie Roseblade and Brighton councillors Mary Tadman and Craig Kerr were here. He said he is proud of the YMCA for hosting this event.

Executive director Laura Hare noted that Memory Lane has been included in the displays around the gymnasium where people are posting picture of their loved ones. She added that Sharon Brewster is the Trenton connection with support groups available for caregivers.

Brewster said she formerly worked for the Victorian Order of Nurses and was involved with people with dementia for 12 years. There are support groups at Seasons Dufferin Centre, Crown Ridge and Trent Valley Lodge in Trenton as well as a Circle of Friends at Brighton Legion for education and support for caregivers and people with dementia. There is also a monthly caregiver support group at Applefest Lodge and a founders group at the Brighton Legion for couples whose loved one is in the last stages of dementia. There is also a Plate Mate group for monthly meetings at various restaurants in Trenton, Brighton, Belleville and Tweed which allows participants to meet with other families. For more information call Sharon at 613-394-5410 or call the Belleville ofďŹ ce at 613-962-0892.

Artist Marie Timbers had a display showing the connection of art to Alzheimer’s. “Art helps bypass language barriers,� she explained. “The visual memory will last after the verbal is gone.�

Her goal is to bring people together in art galleries to enjoy art and stimulate conversation. Her ďŹ rst event will be at Gallery 121 in Belleville on Monday, March 10 and 24 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. She said there are lots of opportunities in the area to expand this program and create discussions based on art. Creative art programs could also be started.

The Belleville Walk for Memories will be held at the Bayview Mall on Sunday, January 25. The event is now in its 19 year. Visit www.alzheimer.ca/bhq for information.

Applications close February 18, 2014.

Second year, bigger and better for Moira Lake ice drags Sports - Madoc - Members of the Centre Hastings Snowmobile Club have everything in order for the running of the second annual ice drags on Moira Lake February 8, with the first race taking off at 9 a.m.

“We learned some valuable lessons last year, and have made improvements.” says race coordinator Steve Thrower.

“We have to be prepared for a snow fall the night before and we purchased a professional drag racing software system to keep everything organized.”

Thrower said even though the races generated quite a bit of business for everyone nearby last year, “We weren’t as prepared as we had hoped, things could have gone smoother.”

Last year 72 sleds registered,

$20 per race, and 570 people paid the $10 entrance fee. The weather conditions were “bad” last year Thrower said.

“This year we believe they will be ideal and are expecting at least double that or even triple the number.”

The club purchased professional software from Port-ATree racing systems and sent members out for training. “This will be the first system of its kind in a non-fixed track environment in this area.”

Thrower said it will eliminate any confusion in recording racers, times and entries, “We just feed it in and it will organize it all.”

President Andy Vanecko will be running in the celebrity race at noon along with local politicians, followed by a sponsor-

ship race by corporate donors IA Clarington Investments, Invesco Canada and TD/Canada Trust. Local bank manager Carolyn Birney and Quinte Broadcasting’s Amy Fox are scheduled to race with one more rider yet unannounced.

Young riders have a chance to show their stuff just after the noon run, as do the ladies and high speed runners throughout the day-long event.

“It should be a fun day for all levels of riders,” said Vanecko, “with decent challenges for the more experienced.”

Though the event is for amateurs, serious ice racers will have a chance to run full tilt in the King of the Ice category, where speeds of up to 120 miles per hour are expected on a 660foot track with plenty of length

for slow down. Thrower says there is good prize money for that sector, with first place paying $500.

The club is pleased with continuing support by many of the 2012 sponsors.

Major sponsors this year are Bay Marine Ski-doo, Bonter Marine Polaris, Deer Haven Farm and Garden Polaris and Hastings Resort of Gilmour.

Get Quick Trailers of Belleville is providing a trailer for the race coordinator, announcers and administration.

Chris Egan of the Barley Pub and Eatery will be setting up a licensed lounge area equipped with spectator bleachers while the Madoc Lions Club will be cooking on the ice near by, with the local McDonald’s franchise supplying the coffee.

The Kiwanis Club of Madoc is taking on the job of fencing and security while members of the O’Hara Mill Homestead volunteer association work race assistance and refuge areas.

Members of the Madoc Agricultural Society are taking the entrance gates, which will be at the junction of Wat-

son Lane and Highway 62 south of the Kiwanis beach/ boat launch, at Kramp’s cottages on the narrows, west of the bridge.

These four local agencies will benefit from proceeds of the event.

R0012492673

Drs Sue and John Marinovich and staff have been serving the dental community of Quinte since 1994.

Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. on site, or can be found at chscmadoc.yolasite.com or at the Facebook address “chscmadoc.”

For more information phone Laurie or Steve Thrower at 613-473-5537.

Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Stirling â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The ice cleaning crews have already started work on the mill pond and organizers are busily preparing for the Fourth Annual Stirling-Rawdon Mill Pond Hockey Tournament next month.

Organizer Dave Brandt says plans are well underway for the February 8 four-onfour showdown with plenty of interest from players and spectators alike. With nearly all of the 16 available slots already filled by teams who have competed in previous years, Brandt says it is shaping up to be another wellattended event with plenty of familiar faces. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looking really good right now,â&#x20AC;? he says, adding he has little doubt a full complement of teams will be registered long before tournament day.

Teams made up of about six players will face off on five different rinks on the mill pond in the same fouron-four format that has been used in the past. Teams play without goalies, using a shortened net and a strategy to keep the puck low. Helmets are mandatory and equipment is encouraged. Games begin at 8 a.m. with the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition expected to wrap up by about 4 p.m. with all teams guaranteed four games.

Teams will play in competitive and non-competitive divisions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a lot of interest,â&#x20AC;? Brandt adds, noting it is not only the players who are looking forward to the return of the annual tournament. Spectators too have been eagerly anticipating the return of what Brandt says is becoming an annual ritual.

Stirling-Rawdon Council also endorsed the annual event, agreeing at their most recent regular meeting to close a section of Mill Street along the pond for the duration of the tournament as in previous years.

Last year, and with two

successful years behind them, local organizers were again treated to near ideal conditions and perfect temperatures that helped create what many agreed were the best conditions possible for outdoor hockey.

Skies were overcast and the temperature settled comfortably below freezing and despite nearby heavy snowfalls, there were only light flurries that were cleared by volunteers throughout the day.

A highlight last year was when members of the organizing committee, responsible for many of the activities leading up to the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s successful

Hockeyville bid, were on hand for the tournament as well as the presentation of a cheque for $159,000 to arena board members.

And while there are no big cheque presentations planned this time around, competitive teams will be vying for a $200 championship prize with the runnerup awarded a $150 payday.

Winnings last year were donated back to the Stirling and District Minor Hockey Association.

Registration forms and further information is available at www.stirling-rawdon.com.

Pond Hockey Classic raises funds for hospital Sports – Quinte West – Dozens of hardy hockey players took to the outdoor rinks at Batawa on January 17 and 18 to raise funds for Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation and the Military Families Fund.

“This is the first year we have been a recipient,” Foundation executive director Wendy Warner said with a smile.

While the tally is not yet in on how much was raised by the tournament and the dinner, organizers are extremely hopeful. Warner is already planning the next hospital fundraisers, including a Healthy Half Marathon at the end of April and a Grapes of Wrath Stomp and Romp at Hiller Creek Estates winery on September 13.

“We are very fortunate to have the military help us,” she said, noting that volunteers will help set up the Grapes of Wrath challenge which will include a zipline over the grape bushes, a five-kilometre race through a creek and a “down and dirty” crawl in the mud. That event will be shared with the Canadian Cancer Society and the Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Foundation.

“We will all take off our running shoes afterwards, wash them off and donate them,” she laughed.

The weekend of hockey in Batawa included Walter Gretzky, father of the famous Wayne Gretzky, who dropped the puck for the finalists and was the

guest speaker at the dinner held at the National Air Force Museum on Saturday night. That event was catered

by Blue Butterfly and featured pork, chicken and beef entrees served by Mayor John Williams and Member of Parliament Rick Norlock among others. It included a silent and live auction with Jim Nelson.

Gretzky went around to each table and offered autographs made out to their children or grandchildren. At 75, he is doing well after suffering a nearfatal brain aneurysm in 1991. He has written two books on hockey and spent many hours speaking at charitable functions. He still likes to golf, coach hockey and spend time with his grandchildren.

Comedian Dave Hemstad was MC for the event, which also featured the 8 Wing Band performing under the restored Halifax aircraft.

The CFB Trenton Pond Hockey Classic was created in 2012 by members of 436 Squadron as a fun sports day that would also raise funds for the Military Families Fund. In its first year the tournament saw 14 teams participate, raising over $6,700, with 429 Squadron winning the games in a snowstorm.

In the second year 18 teams participated, raising $28,000. The event included Toronto Maple Leaf legend Ron Ellis. This year 26 teams participated and over 200 attended the dinner.

SnoFest to host regional chili competition Events – Marmora – To further engage the surrounding community, Marmora SnoFest has expanded its annual chili contest to include a town-versus-town chili competition. The event will crown a “SnoFest Chili Champion” that will represent a business in their hometown.

Marmora SnoFest is looking for chili aficionados from surrounding area businesses or home-based cooks to come out and compete for a chance to win a perpetual trophy that will stay in the winner’s home or office for a year.

The SnoFest Chili Championship will run on the afternoon of Sunday, Feb. 2 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. inside the Community Centre. To participate in the

competition please email Pam Meiklejohn at pamstorms@ hotmail.com.

A panel of “area famous” individuals, including the Queen of the Furrow, will judge this tasty event. Spectators can chow down on the various chili creations by purchasing the SnoFest Chili Bowl for $15. Participants can also vote for the winner in the People’s Choice category.

Participants will need a button to get into the event. The presale button price is $7 and the charge is $10 at the gate. To find out where to purchase buttons or for more information about SnoFest visit www.snofest. ca, search for the event on Facebook, or follow the event on Twitter at @MSnoFest .

“We are very excited about this new programming opportunity. It’s a great way to engage the Hastings County community, celebrate local culinary talent and venture outside the traditional chili box through the comfort of food and competition,” says Meiklejohn, a SnoFest board member.

As one of Canada’s longest running sled dog races, Marmora SnoFest honours the region’s

legacy while embracing new and exciting winter activates for the whole family.

Rediscover the joys of winter this year at SnoFest 2014 by participating in events such as Marmora’s Got Talent, Artistic Expressions artisan craft show, Who’s Growing Locally farmers’ market, the Kidz Zone, Weight Pulls, the SnoFest Dance, the SnoFest Banquet and a silent auction.

New model proposed

By John Campbell

News – Campbellford – A new model for the delivery of health care services in Northumberland County proposes that regionwide systems for hospice/palliative care and the prevention and management of diabetes be developed.

The organizations that currently provide these services across the county “could still operate independently, it’s just how can we make sure that everybody is working for the same goals for those patients,” said Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) president and Chief Executive Officer Brad Hilker.

The new model suggests CMH be made the lead agency for the hospice/palliative care initiative.

The six recommendations contained in the 15-page report include support for the continued development of a “rural Health Hub” in Trent Hills, such as consolidating back office functions, including information technology, human resources, finance, and procurement, between CMH and Community Care Northumberland.

It also recommends the hospital and the Victorian Order of Nurses develop a service level agreement “to optimize the provision of assisted living in the Trent Hills area.”

The agency has been assigned responsibility for creating new assisted living units for high-risk seniors in Norwood, Havelock,

Campbellford and Cobourg.

VON has received funding to provide more support to more clients in their own homes.

Another recommendation is that systems and strategies be put in place so that patient/client information can be shared more among health care providers.

The model also includes setting up a Northumberland Health System Transformation Council to continue efforts by health service providers to find more efficiencies, and to improve the coordination of care, so that “what we do deliver we’re going to provide the best we can,” Hilker said.

The impetus for change was a desire to improve client access to high quality care and to make the best use of money spent on programs and services, at a time when the population is aging and the prevalence of chronic disease and mental illness is increasing.

Representatives from Campbellford Memorial Hospital, Campbellford Memorial Multicare Lodge, Community Care Northumberland, Branch 133 Legion Village Inc. in Cobourg, Northumberland Hills Hospital, Port Hope Community Health Centre, and VON Canada – Ontario branch have been working together for almost a year on identifying opportunities for integration.

Members of the Integration Planning Team (IPT), which included Hilker, looked at wait lists and the lack of access to

some services, the difficulty for patients and caregivers in navigating through the system and the need for them to repeat their stories with every new service provider, and increasing financial pressures.

The model the IPT developed will be presented to the boards of the seven partners in February.

Hilker stressed everything is still in draft form.

“That’s the thing we can’t lose sight of, this whole plan can change, our boards could say no in the next couple of weeks as we’re reviewing the plan,” he said. “By the end of February it could be the same or something totally different.”

The original intent was to hold public meetings to receive feedback. But based on the recommendations ultimately arrived at by the IPT, with the help of a facilitator, “it wasn’t the big change that we initially planned, so it was easier” to solicit comment from residents with a survey, Hilker said.

“It’s more an evolution than a radical change.”

The deadline for public input was January 10 but Hilker said people can still express their views by calling or emailing him.

The integrated service delivery model will be submitted to the Central East Local Health Integration Network for approval.

Implementation is to begin in the 2014 -15 fiscal year.

A BRIGHTON CHRISTMAS HAMPER VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE THANK YOU FOR 2013 The “Brighton CHRISTMAS HAMPER VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE” would like to thank 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 140 or more volunteers who worked hard putting the Hampers together for pick up day.

Rotarians at work in our food booth at one of the many Community events that Brighton Rotary supports

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 60 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 147 children. There were 122 families who received Christmas Hampers.

R0012514958 R0012514958

It was wonderful of five 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.

Brighton Rotary channelled a gift from the Dorothy Gingrich Estate into the construction of the splash pad at King Edward Park

The donations and help we receive for this wonderful adventure were incredible. We are always in awe of how wonderful, generous and giving people are to others in need. Had we not received so much help in would not have been possible for us to assist all those who need help at this very special time of year.

More dental options needed

K YOU N A

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Northumberland County - While progress is being made to improve access to dental treatment for children and youth, there is still one key ingredient missing from the mix, say local oral health advocates.

Improved treatment options for adults with serious dental problems are still lacking despite recent improvements in dental care coverage in Ontario, according to the Northumberland Oral Health Coalition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are on the right road to making dental care more accessible for everyone, but we still have further to go to reach our destination,â&#x20AC;? notes coalition chairperson Sue Hochu.

A 2012 Public Health Ontario study found that among Ontarians who had not recently visited a dentist, one of five people cited cost as a barrier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While government-run financial-support programs exist to pay for dental care for children and youth, there is nothing for adults and they fall through the cracks,â&#x20AC;? says Hochu.

address concerns raised by the Coalition in a letter sent to Ontario Health and Long-Term Care Minister Deb Matthews in October 2013.

However, the coalition notes, the changes still fall short in filling the gap for low-income adults who have serious dental problems but cannot afford to see a dentist.

The Coalition was formed in 2005 to address the gap in dental care in Northumberland County.

The coalition includes people who work in private dental care, Health Unit staff, representatives from other community agencies and concerned citizens.

Hochu commented that Coalition members see the effects first hand of people who suffer from poor oral health. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wise investment if we can prevent dental problems like severe toothaches and infection before they become more serious health care issues,â&#x20AC;? Hochu notes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People who cannot afford dental treatment deserve the same quality of life, just like those who can afford to visit the dentist.â&#x20AC;?

In 2012, there were 599 visits to hospital emergency rooms (ERs) in Cobourg and Campbellford for oral health issues, based on data obtained from the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nearly three-quarter of these visits were considered less urgent and could have been managed elsewhere in the community, rather than taking up valuable hospital ER resources,â&#x20AC;? Hochu notes.

In mid-December 2013, the Ontario government announced it was improving access to free dental care services for children and youth.

Starting in April 2014, an additional 70,000 Ontario children will be eligible to receive free dental care through the Healthy Smiles Ontario program.

As well by mid-2015, the provincial government will merge the six dental programs that now serve low-income and disabled children into one single service to improve administration and access.

In a press release Hochu applauds these changes, noting they

Stompin’ Jon show a tribute to legendary musician who loved Canada

Entertainment – Warkworth – Stompin’ Tom is no longer with us but his stomp carries on.

Stompin’ Jon has been performing tributes to the great Canadian singer for two years at festivals, jamborees, fairs and other venues and he’ll be bringing his talents to the Warkworth Town Hall Centre for the Arts February 1.

Jon Finlan, originally from Trenton and now a resident of Wooler, has also played at Casino Niagara and at the Purple Hill Country Music Hall in London, with Al Widemeyer, Stompin’ Tom Connors buddy and band mate.

Connors, who died in 2013, was famous for his fierce commitment to Canada as expressed through his songs that told stories and showed humour, and Finlan’s performances keep fresh the fond memories people have of the country music icon who

Aron Theatre begins a winter of exciting viewing for movie goers Entertainment - Campbellford The 2014 Academy Award nominees have been announced, and the Aron Theatre is getting involved in the Oscar buzz.

The community-owned theatre has already shown four best picture nominees: Captain Phillips, Gravity, Philomena, and 12 Years a Slave.

And, over the coming weeks, the Aron will show these best picture nominees: American Hustle (January 24 to 28), Dallas Buyers Club (February 19), and Nebraska (April 2).

The Aron is offering six premium movies and a gala opening for people who purchase the $60 series pass.

There are two opening gala events to choose from: a 1 p.m. wine and hors d’oeuvre lunch or a 6:30 p.m. chocolate and wine pairing (cash bar for the wine).

Two local businesses, On the Side Gourmet Food and Joey’s Chocolate Bar are providing the gourmet food and chocolate for the opening film: Haute Cuisine.

Series passes are available at Kerr’s Corner Books and the Aron Theatre in Campbellford. Single screening tickets are available at the door for $12.

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Warkworth â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Local celebrities became chefs for a day at the third-annual Definitely Not a Black Tie Lunch fundraiser for the 7 Hills Community Pantry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is our only fundraiser of the year, so it is very important,â&#x20AC;? said Gail Covert, chair of the Pantry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The volunteers are incredible. They made it a success. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop talking about them.â&#x20AC;?

Four teams participated, one less team than last year, and attendance was down but there must have been something in the cooking that heated up the auction for the meals at the end of the event because a total of $1,000 was raised. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We brought in $83 less than last year so the generosity was still there for this event,â&#x20AC;? said Covert.

The goal was to prepare a healthy meal that cost no more than $10 and would feed a family of five. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year we did draws that we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do in the past and that helped bump up the amount,â&#x20AC;? she added.

$1,500 fine for snagging trout during closed season

News - A Cobourg man has been fined $1,500 for fishing offences in Northumberland County.

Michael B. Ainsworth pleaded guilty to snagging fish and angling during closed season. He was fined $750 for each offence and his fishing equipment was forfeited to the Crown.

Court heard that on April 26, 2013, conservation officers observed Ainsworth snagging rainbow trout in Shelter Valley Creek before the season opened.

He was apprehended by officers after a brief foot chase.

Justice of the Peace Jack LeBlanc heard the case in the Ontario Court of Justice, Cobourg, on January 8, 2014.

To report a natural resources violation, call 1-877-TIPS-MNR (847-7667) toll-free any time or contact your local ministry office during regular business hours. You can also call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

And last but not least were The Gamblers; Rhiannon Gavin of Warkworth and her friend Virginia Marshall who stole the show with a deck of cards pinned to their clothes.

“We’re taking a gamble here,” said Gavin, noting their meal was sugar free and salt free.

Their main course was gluten free tuna pasta and they also created a salad with red wine vinaigrette on the side and apple sauce and fruits for dessert.

“I think it’s an important cause for our community,” said Marshall.

“It’s important to participate because the food bank is a critical service to the community,” said Lyons while kneading some dough in the kitchen.

“I am on a personal mission to promote good food, healthy food and this is an opportunity to demonstrate that.”

ENTERTAINMENT

My Theatre offers great entertainment, living and dead, from old Trenton Town Hall available for rent to any group.

However, not every creature is happy with the disturbance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a feeling,â&#x20AC;? says Julie. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes you see things out of the corner of your eye, and then theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re gone. These are things that make you go hmmmmm...â&#x20AC;?

She said there used to be a mannequin standing in the corner that guests saw as they entered the room but that has been removed. Too creepy. There are portraits of all the dead Trenton mayors dating from Dr. H. W. Day in 1881 in gold frames all around the room. At the back is the first wooden mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chair under a portrait of Queen Victoria. The gold and maroon curtains match the original gold tin ceiling and the luxurious seats. But there is still that feeling... â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a jail in the basement,â&#x20AC;? adds Shawn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anything could have happened here.â&#x20AC;?

My Theatre is popular because of the hard work and talent of its volunteer actors and stage crews making performances worthy of a much larger centre.

Quinte West â&#x20AC;&#x201C; My Theatre is offering up some great entertainment with live shows every few months. On February 27, the new season starts with the hilarious â&#x20AC;&#x153;Love, Sex and the IRSâ&#x20AC;? with tickets available online at www. mytheatrequinte.ca or at the Chamber of Commerce at 613-392-7635.

But seriously, there is something else going on at the Trenton Town Hall 1861 at 55 King St. that most people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to talk about. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This place is haunted,â&#x20AC;? admits Trent Port Historical Society president Shawn Ellis.

He says that chandeliers sway back and forth, things fall over and some go flying across the floor when they are working on renovations. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

even scarier at night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just stand here in the dark some time,â&#x20AC;? says treasurer Julie Van Dijk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creepy.â&#x20AC;?

While â&#x20AC;&#x153;nothing badâ&#x20AC;? has ever happened upstairs at the old town hall, which was once a council chambers, police station and courthouse, there is definitely something stirring in the still dark night that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t involve actors on the stage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had ghost hunters come in to check it out,â&#x20AC;? adds Shawn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their batteries kept going dead. Their ghost counter was going crazy.â&#x20AC;?

He suspects spirits from the past may be getting stirred up with all the changes and renovations. New seating, lighting, sound systems and historic decor have made the room a gorgeous setting for live theatre, and the space is

BGH Foundation hosts Hall of Fame-type fund-raiser

By Stephen Petrick

Sports - Belleville - Picture the image of Doug Gilmour gliding on ice, his blue and white No. 93 Toronto Maple Leafs jersey tucked in on one side into his pants. Or picture Ray Bourque calmly patrolling the blue line in Boston yellow and black, waiting for a chance to pinch in and take a shot on net.

Those images came back to life for fans who packed the Yardmen Arena on Friday, Jan. 17.

About 3,000 spectators watched Toronto Maple Leafs alumni take on Boston Bruins alumni in a charity game in support of the Belleville General Hospital Foundation.

Never mind that the players were older, had greyer hair and had lost some spring in their step; the spectacle provided fans with a chance to cheer on NHL stars of the past, get a few autographs and learn about the importance of the BGH Foundation.

Jenn Barrett, the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Director of Development, said the she was thrilled with the turnout. Between ticket sales and other fund-raisers, such as a silent auction of hockey memorabilia, the event raised about $75,000.

That money is highly appreciated because the

foundation is about to set out on a $5 million fundraising campaign for cancer care components of the hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cancer care throughout the entire hospital; not just oncology,â&#x20AC;? said Barrett. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our cancer patients really touch the entire hospital. (The campaign) is for our diagnostic imaging, our surgical ďŹ&#x201A;oor. Really, every department, except for pediatrics, deals with cancer patients.â&#x20AC;?

Before the game fans saw a video by Vantage Point Media which was broadcast on the scoreboard and spoke to the importance of the campaign and the movement to beat cancer.

It was just one highlight in a memorable night.

Barrett explained that the game marked the ďŹ rst time Toronto Maple Leafs and Boston Bruins alumni had met.

Last year, the foundation hosted a fund raising game between Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens alumni and it was such a hit that the parties involved agreed a similar event should take place this year.

Barrett credited the Toronto Maple Leafs alumni organization for gathering players again and ďŹ nding a different opponent that would also generate a big draw. The Bruins are one of the National

Hockey Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original six teams and fans were there to see Gilmour and Bourque, both members has a history as rich as the Maple Leafs. of the Hockey Hall of Fame.

The Bruins team featured fan favourite Al Iafrate and other notables including Ken Linseman and Rick Middleton.

The Leafs team featured many stars of the 1980s and early 90s including Rick Vaive and Gary Leeman.

But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a safe assumption that many

Bill Dunk Bonspiel set to rock this weekend

By Ray Yurkowski

Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Brighton â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Curlers at the 11th annual Brighton Curling Club senior menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tournament this weekend will be competing under a new banner: the Bill Dunk Senior Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bonspiel.

The event was started by Dunk in 2004, but this year he turned over the reins of the event to a six-person committee. It took them one meeting to decide to name the bonspiel after its founder. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a nice feeling,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was only appropriate, in terms of the contribution that he has made to the club,â&#x20AC;? said committee chairperson Barry Kant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been president, ice man and was one of the few guys who took teams out to bonspiels.

just love to curl.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I gave it try,â&#x20AC;? said Dunk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And every year, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had teams on a standby list.â&#x20AC;?

And this year is no different. With some teams attending the annual event since the beginning, others are still calling the club trying to get in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From a camaraderie point of view, it sort of like an old-home weekend here when they come in,â&#x20AC;? says Kant.

It turns out, throughout a decade of organizing the senior menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event, Bill has relied on a secret weapon that has been a boon to attracting competing teams: wife Sandraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cooking.

And as chief chef providing the lunch for the one-day bonspiel, she is getting some rave reviews of her own. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Her lunch is probably as big

a draw as the curling,â&#x20AC;? said Kant, who added she has signed up for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty hard to get into this bonspiel,â&#x20AC;? added Sandra. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Two different teams have told me they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come to win, they come for the food.â&#x20AC;?

This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the first honour for Bill Dunk. In 2010, he received a provincial Community Sports Hero Award for countless hours of volunteering as a coach in both hockey and fastball.

And in 2008, along with Sandra, he earned a Brighton Civic Award.

The Bill Dunk Senior Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bonspiel gets underway at 9 a.m. Friday, Jan. 24 at the Brighton Curling Club.

Sixteen teams are registered from Napanee, the Quinte region, Whitby, Peterborough and Brighton.

On The Rocks: Trenton Curling Club news

At the age of 77, Bill Dunk decided to hang up his broom and turn over the reins of a senior menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s curling bonspiel, which is now named after him.

And Kant admits the committee has some big shoes to fill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to try,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taking six of us to replace Bill, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve still got him on the committee providing direction and encouragement and coaching us.

Sports - Google suggests Trentonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hollywood North era fizzled out circa 1937ish. Wrong! On Friday January tenth, 96 glamour queens sashayed their stuff both on the ice and the red carpet, as the annual ladies spiel got under way. The theme was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hollywoodâ&#x20AC;? and 24 teams were ushered to an authentic sound stage for team photos, followed by snacks, a meet and greet, and three Friday evening draws.

Play continued early Saturday morning and spectators were treated to some excellent play making. The last game ended at 7:30 p.m., with eight teams eliminated from the Sunday playoffs. But first it was party time. The ladies proceeded to the red carpet for their glamour shots. Joan Rivers would have been proud of the outfits: everything from Charlie Chaplain, Men in Black (or curlers in drag) to Nicole Kidman look-a-likes.

The stars dined on a lip-smacking dinner prepared by Deb Baldassaro, while DJ Steve Buskard provided the theme music. And then they rocked and partied into the wee hours as if at an Oscar soiree. The floor pulsations stopped just long enough for the draw for a Via Rail trip for two to Quebec City, which was won by Ruth Epping.

Competition resumed early Sunday morning with division semi-finals, where some teams

succumbed to the late night revelry with the following results. A event: Caroline Deans (Quinte) defeated Kerry McCue (Trenton) while Sherry Bulmer (Peterborough) defeated Julie Jarvis (Quinte).

B event: Debbie Loshaw (Brighton) beat Margaret Williams (Kingston) and Barb Sopaz (Trenton) sent Sandy Gougeon (Peterborough) to the dressing room. C Event: Pearl Dixon (Peterborough) put away Maureen Garrett (Trenton) and Julie Whyte (Trenton) overcame Deanna Ware (Kingston). D event: Linda Stykel (Trenton) beat

Dianne Cage (Quinte) and Lynne Van Dalen (Gananoque) routed Sheila Sharon Leitch (Quinte).

Van Dalen continued her winning streak in the D Final, handing Stykel a 10 - 2 loss after six ends. In spite of the final score, the C final was a crowd pleaser as Whyte fought back from an early 6 - 2 deficit with a chance to tie it in eight.

She needed a run-back double take out, but only took out one for a 10 - 5 Dixon win. In a nail-biter B final, and tied at five each after seven, Loshaw was laying two in the four foot.

Sopaz made a perfect freeze for

shot, but left Loshaw a tap on her second stone for a possible win. She came up six inches light, giving Sopaz a 6 - 5 win.

The A final was a game of surgical curling as the game was tied at one each after four ends. In a match where only six points were scored, this was truly a game of inches and one that could have gone either way. However, Deans prevailed with a 5 - 1 victory over Bulmer.

A bonspiel such as this is not possible without a lot of volunteers and sponsors.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be thanking them next week.

Stephen Harper leads Belleville Bulls to win, Trudeau responds the next night

By Stephen Petrick

Sports - Belleville - Stephen Harper had a big game in Ottawa on Friday night but on Saturday some guy named Trudeau stole the show.

Not talking politics here; Belleville Bulls forward Stephen Harper (yes, same name as the prime minister) scored one goal and an assist to lead his team to a 5 - 2 win over the Ottawa 67’s in an Ontario Hockey League game in the nation’s capital on January 17.

On the 18th, the 67’s evened the home-and-home series with a 2 - 1 win over the Bulls at the Yardmen Arena. Ottawa goalie Phillippe Trudeau made 46 saves and was named the game’s first star in the win.

The games offered more entertainment than either of the two players’ namesakes could put on, but in the end they didn’t change much in the standings.

Had the Bulls swept the series, they would have been tied for ninth-place in the Eastern Conference. Instead they ended the weekend in dead last in the conference with a 13-27-2-2 re-

cord. Heading into Wednesday’s game against Oshawa (which occurred after press time) they were six points behind Niagara, which holds eighth place and the final playoff spot.

Asked how he was doing after Saturday’s game, Bulls head coach George Burnett said “wonderful,” somewhat tongue in cheek. The fact that his team significantly outshot Ottawa, 47 - 27 offered little comfort to him.

“There were lots of shots but I don’t know if the quality was strong enough; our top guys – the guys that are expected to provide offence for us – didn’t provide enough in five of the last six periods.”

The one exception he was referring to was the third period of Friday’s game in Ottawa.

The teams exchanged goals in the first period, with Harper providing the Belleville goal, and a lone Ottawa goal in the second period made it 2 - 1 for the host team heading into the third.

That’s when the Bulls’ offence exploded with four goals in the opening four minutes of the frame. Niki Petti scored at

1:19, Jake Worrad scored at 1:36, Cameron Brace scored at 2:54 and Jordan Subban scored at 3:58, with Harper drawing the assist. Subban also finished with a two-point night, as he assisted on Brace’s goal.

Charile Graham made 28 saves as the winning goaltender.

On Saturday, the Bulls came out with a lot of energy, backed by a crowd of 3,025 fans, the team’s largest of the season.

However, the 67’s scored once in the first and once in the second to record all the offence they would need.

David Tomasek scored for Belleville midway through the third period to make it 2 - 1, but that’s as close as the Bulls would come, as Trudeau made several good saves in the third period.

Burnett said his team is doing a lot of good things right now, but just has to find a way to score more. “Ultimately we need to find a way,” he said, noting that the team missed several opportunities on the power play.

The Bulls have 24 games re-

maining in the regular season and everyone is aware that the team must improve to have a shot at the playoffs, Burnett said.

“We’re well aware of where we are in the standings; it was

an important match up. The disappointing thing is we weren’t able to get the job done with a great crowd and a lot of energy in the building,” he said.

The Bulls’ next game is Saturday, January 25 at 7:05 p.m.

at the Yardmen Arena and it will be a good one to watch. It’s against the league leading Erie Otters, led by Connor McDavid, a member of Canada’s national junior team and projected future top NHL draft pick.

Global phenomenon of Death Café coming to Northumberland

Lifestyle – Warkworth – A dialogue about death, in what is now a global phenomenon, is coming here with the launch of Death Café Northumberland.

“The object of a Death Café is to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives.”

Those are the words of Barb Phillips, founder of a group called “Last Breath” whose mandate is “to educate and support the opening of conversation about death and dying.”

For Phillips, “It’s about bringing consciousness to a topic that has been taboo in North America.”

A Thanadoula (or Death Midwife) who serves the dying and their families, Phillips and like-minded friends will be hosting a Death Café next month near Warkworth, followed by one in Brighton and one in Cobourg.

A director with the first residential Hospice in Northumberland County, The Bridge Hospice in Warkworth, she views the Death Café as an opportunity to “talk about death, to share thought provoking, engaging and life affirming conversation in a relaxed comfortable atmosphere enjoying tea, coffee and treats.”

The Death Café in Campbellford will be the first of a series of six to be held this year.

And they are free.

Phillips noted that a Death Café is a discussion group about death rather than a grief support or counselling session.

Phillips’ personal experience, being part of the end-of-life time for “a dear friend” led to asking some difficult questions such as what is it you want for your funeral, where do you want it, who do you want there to preside and more.

“When we were in the palliative care unit in the hospital in his last week of life I can remember thinking here is the cathartic moment,” she said.

“I was sitting looking at him on a December afternoon and thinking this is an incredible event that I am sitting here and experiencing and being privileged to be a part of and I need to know more about this because I am feeling the humanness of this experience and I was asking myself am I equipped to be present here,” she said.

“Let’s start planning now, let’s start having the conversations now.”

Phillips talked about “taking Death Café Northumberland is an opportunity for people to talk about death and dying in a safe, relaxed atmosphere. Barb Phillips, founder of a group ownership of grief.” called “Last Breath” whose mandate is “to educate and support the opening of conversation about death and dying,” talked with the Trent Hills Indepen-

Long-time maple syrup producers honoured

By Jack Evans

Lifestyles - Good things are on the horizon for maple syrup producers, including those in the Quinte district, experts told the annual information day for the Quinte Local of the Ontario Maple Syrup Producers Association.

The meeting held Friday in Tyendinaga Township Hall in Melrose, drew about 100

producers from across the sprawling area which runs from Campbellford to Kingston.

Also attending were representatives and their displays from several major maple production equipment dealers.

The good news, referred to by several speakers, is the onset of selling pasteurized sap as a canned or bottled beverage, following

recent official approvals for such a product.

Other good news is the fact that there are millions of more tapable maple trees, mostly on crown lands, that Ontario producers may be able to negotiate for. Talks are already underway.

George and Alice Potter (left) received recognition awards for their long service to the maple syrup industry from Ray Bonenberg, on behalf of the Ontario Maple Syrup Producers Association and Chris Koopmans (not in the photo), on behalf of the Quinte Local of the association. The long-time operators of Sandy Flats sugar bush near Warkworth announced their retirement after having sold the farm. Bonenberg, of the Renfrew area, is president of the Ontario association and Koopmans, of Waupoos in Prince Edward County, was re-elected president of the Quinte Local at the annual meeting Friday.

In her role as a Thanadoula, she is hoping to affect a shift in the way society views end of life, death and dying, from something to be avoided, to something which is to be welcomed as a lifeenhancing experience.

“I have tried many things before, but to no avail.”

which made me realize that it was special.”

information days, Ray Bonenberg, president of the provincial association, praised the work of the Quinte local and gave a report on new developments in the industry across Canada and the United States.

Counting maples on crown lands, Bonenberg commented: “We have more maples than Quebec has. There’s a lot of potential to grow our industry.”

He reminded that the longhorn beetle pest, while cut back, remains a serious threat as a new outbreak has been discovered.

Dr. Brenda Murphy of Sir Wilfred Laurier University, an agricultural expert, commented on the “huge contribution” by maple syrup producers to general rural “sustainability” by preserving and enhancing forest cover and habitat.

Both Bonenberg and newly re-elected president of the Quinte Local Chris Koopmans presented achievement awards to prominent long-time producers George and Alice Potter. The Potters have now formally retired, having sold their famous

Sandy Flats sugar bush to Derek and Angela van Stam, they announced.

Many years ago, the Potters pioneered a maple syrup festival based at their Warkworth area farm – an event which grew rapidly with widespread community and Northumberland County participation into one of the major maple festivals in Ontario.

Expressing thanks for the awards, Alice Potter told about how much they had enjoyed their many years as maple syrup producers, several major provincial awards and fellowship with other producers. “We’re going to remain as associate members,” she said.

Marc Curle of Campbellford, one of the local’s representatives to OMSPA, described projects underway to enhance benefits to association members.

Despite some recognized ice damage, particularly in Prince Edward County, field experts said last year was a good growing year for the trees. Those trees that show ice damaged can still be tapped, but not as intensively as normal, said Todd Leuty.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Why refurbish Darlington when there’s cheap power available alone. After a long spell of opposition whining about the high salary Strong earned of $400,000 per year, he made the extraordinary offer of working the last year for the sum of one dollar.

Shortly after when Conservative Mike the Knife rose to power, he appointed his campaign manager to the job for $1 million per year, and once again started stuffing hacks and bagmen into the management. Forward to present day where six per cent of those employed at OPG make over $100,000 and ten per cent are related to one another or live

together, some never bothering with job applications.

OPG under the Liberal government is now asking for a 30 per cent rate increase for its nuclear power generators.

Forty-three per cent of the rate increase in 2012 was due to nuclear subsidies.

A large part of my Hydro bill over the years has gone for nuclear cost overruns, expensive refits, and the stranded debt. Pickering was amortized over 45 years only to find the calandrias needed re-tubing after only 15-20 years at a cost of $1 billion each. And so it goes.

Wyley longs for the original June Cleaver

Dear Editor, That was a great article last week by our geezer-in-training, editor Terry Bush. That lad has real potential, capturing the angst of anyone over fifty and from a small community.

Where did we go wrong? Which generation dropped the ball leading to helicopter parents and thumb-enhanced, overweight, entitled little amoeboids?

My wife says it was the metaphorical moment when June Cleaver decided she wanted to go to work and the kids could go to daycare and fend for themselves. A guy can’t criticize the ladies’ decision to take early leave of the house and kitchen without looking like a sexist, dominant, mouth-breathing male pig. So by and large guys didn’t, and don’t.

But, I say, maybe, just maybe, if Ms. Cleaver

had decided to stay home until the kids were older, families wouldn’t need two cars, cable and internet, three giant TVs, and every kid over four wouldn’t need a cell phone and an iPad. They might like to play games in unstructured circumstances, (what? a pick-up game of ball or hockey or soccer or tag?) And kids might want to walk and run, swim without crouching endlessly behind a motorized bouncing tube, and ride a bike for miles and miles with their friends. Peanut allergies and diabetes might be less prevalent, and eleven-year-old girls might not be quite so “developed”.

Just saying. “Wait, ooch, ouch, get back June; stop hitting me with that $250 purse!”

Wyley Canuck aka Ken Leavens, Stirling

Not quite book burnings, but close Dear Editor, My mother-in-law claims Prime Minister Stephen Harper wears a wig. To no avail I have tried to persuade her that despite the fact his coif always looks perfect, never a cowlick to be seen, it is simply the high-priced image consultant he keeps by his side at all times that insures his uniformity. Steve understands the importance of image. Every time he appears in public it is a well-orchestrated bit of acting for the cameras. Chances are we will never know what it costs us to keep Steve’s hair under control but there were some insights last week as to what it costs us to keep him alive.

Three reports in a row on CBC’s national news got me thinking beyond the cost of Steve’s travelling beauty parlor.

First came his predictably hollow claim for protection of his beloved taxpayers’ dollar.

To realize their claimed savings Conservatives decided to throw seven libraries full of historical research done by the Department of Oceans and Fisheries into the dumpster. Scientists were once again appalled at this blatant destruction of the baseline data they need to understand how our lakes and rivers are faring today compared to several decades ago. Studies from the 1960s and 1970s pertaining to the proposed Mackenzie Valley pipeline, which have never been digitized to make them available online, were shown the door.

Over breakfast this morning when I asked a friend, who holds

a Masters Degree in Marine Biology, why the Conservatives would destroy all of this research paid for by Canadians since the 1880s, the answer was, “When Conservatives are trying to get an oil pipeline through the Rockies approved they don’t want that kind of historical empirical evidence coming up when they are fast tracking the environmental assessment phase of their plans. They are willing to destroy anything that might stand in their way of selling all of the tar sands oil as fast as they can.” Conservatives claim they will save $430,000 annually by destroying these archives.

Dr. Peter Wells, an adjunct professor and research fellow at the International Ocean Institute at Dalhousie University in Halifax nailed it on the head when he told the Globe & Mail, “I see this situation as a national tragedy, done under the pretext of cost savings, which, when examined closely, will prove to be a false motive. A modern democratic society should value its information resources, not reduce, or worse, trash them.”

Harper’s security was next on the news after a pair of climate change activists, craftily disguised as waiters for Steve’s closed-door session with the Vancouver Board of Trade, popped up behind him on stage holding hand-written signs protesting the Conservatives’ attitude towards the environment.

Considering it costs taxpayers over $20 million per year to protect him, this appeared to

be a rather big hole in a very expensive security apparatus.

Reports indicated security costs for the Prime Minister have risen from about $10 million annually in 2006 to $20 million today. Of course this included the 2013 bill for $1,061,448 to ship his armoured limo to India in the C-17 Globemaster and the $45,000 tab we taxpayers picked up for him to watch the Yankees play baseball in Manhattan on Labour Day 2012.

Now comes Justice Minister Peter McKay’s announcement he is going to spend four million of our tax dollars on advertising to convince the schoolyard bully that moving his bullying onto the Internet is not a smart move. But bullies are not smart. Our four million tax dollars are actually just another Conservative “Tough on Crime” advertising campaign using our dollars as they manoeuvre to hold onto power in the 2015 election. When you consider the very negative ads Conservatives dropped on Justin Trudeau as soon as he was elected leader of the Liberals one might think the schoolyard bully might be taking lessons from the masters on Parliament Hill.

My only regret last week was that our brave young female protestor did not lean over and run her fingers through Steve’s hair. But in Harper’s world that might be a serious enough crime for her to do some mandatory time in one of his many new prison cells.

Alan Coxwell, Stirling

Darlington should be scrapped rather than carry on the same old game. Water generated power in Quebec can be bought for half the cost of that generated at a refurbished Darlington, assuming that the project’s cost estimates are anywhere near the final cost. This would likely be a first. The lines to carry power from Quebec exist; the offer is on the table; all that is needed is for the politicians to say no to their nuclear friends, if they can.

We could, of course, produce much more hydro-generated power

here in Ontario with small hydraulic units installed at existing dams. They would be closer to end-users and make the grid more flexible during power outages. With advise and specialized assistance from Hydro One staff, local municipalities would be less prone to falling into the techno traps experienced

by Bancroft Power. There is, after all, only one taxpayer for all levels of public servants from municipal, provincial to federal levels of government. They are all OUR employees.

Paul Whittaker, Gilmour

Just another misinformed celebrity Dear Editor, The late Scott Young was once a wellinformed sports columnist for the Toronto Globe and when I knew him he always expressed pride in the musical talents of his son Neil.

However, I’m not sure how proud Scott would be of Neil’s deceitful view on environmental politics. First of all, Neil is no longer Canadian and hasn’t been a resident for half a century, living instead in one of the world’s smoggiest cities, so he is hardly in position to be critical of one of major catalysts of the Canadian economy.

Neil Young started his career and honed his rocker skills in two-bit booze joints along Yonge Street in Toronto. Now that he’s a multi-millionaire he’s suddenly opposed to the capitalist system, leading a campaign against big oil even though the oil sands employ thousands of young Canadians and is one of Canada’s most valuable economic resources.

All this even though Young has to plead guilty of being an original capitalist.

If Young is so concerned about the so-called carbon imprint on the world maybe he should stay in his native California and cure some of the bigger environmental problems there. Los Angeles is one of the smoggiest cities in the world. I’ll start taking him seriously when he takes his show on the road in Saudi Arabia, Venezuela or Russia to shout his disdain for oil.

Until then he should keep his hypocrisy to himself. Young insults our intelligence by surrounding himself with the usual suspects, a few First Nations people and environmental fraud David Suzuki, figuring that’s all the facade he needs to fool most of the public.

Stick to rock and roll, Mr. Young, because your progressive politics is a little too obvious.

Dear Editor, In the recent exposure of excessive management with dubious work at Ontario Power Generation or OPG, we are back to the past. In the days of William Davis, Ontario Hydro was always a cushy job position for party hacks and cronies, yet not quite so blatant as now. When the NPD was elected and Maurice Strong was given the job as Chairman of Hydro, he set about getting rid of the overstaffed middle and upper management while leaving the boots on the ground (those who do the work)

us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.”

Next to the museum was a children’s area, where youngsters could play on a pig teeter-totter, travel on a pig train, or ride on a pig toy. Adults would perhaps enjoy the pig-themed beer garden, where they could view pig sculptures and art (including comic sketches of pigs drinking You’ll find a great variety of pigs in this museum. beer) while enjoying a cool brew at the end of their museum visit.

Along with this discovery of the largest pig museum in the world came other ‘insights’ including the ever-moving elevator that I found in City Hall. This old elevator does not stop when it reaches a floor. Rather, it’s constantly on the move, so I had to time my leap on and off and I learned that once one catches on to its speed and movement, it’s easy, so the elevator is often used by the employees.

I also found two statues of Wilhelm I in Stuttgart but they were not of the same man! The one statue was of Emperor Wilhelm I and the other was of King Wilhelm I and they lived in different centuries.

Yet another discovery was how the city of Stuttgart got its name. It’s from “Stuotengarten”, meaning stud horse farm.

It’s said that Duke Luidolf of Swabia founded a horse farm here in 950 and that the Old Palace was built to defend/protect it. Thus, the city’s name and coat of arms (with a black horse on its hind legs) is derived from this stud farm and that also explains the Porsche emblem as well for it also has this Stuttgart horse (since Stuttgart is the home base of Porsche).

By the way, the Porsche symbol’s background shield with the red and gold quarters, apparently is derived from the coat of arms of Wurttemberg, for Stuttgart had been the capital of the state of Wurttemberg prior to the consolidation of West Germany in 1949.

With this reference to Porsche, I’ve moved the conversation to cars, so I can mention yet another rather unique phenomenon I found in another car museum, the MercedesBenz Museum, where there were racing simulators set up.

There were warnings posted that these were not to be used by anyone afraid of dark, enclosed places, were pregnant, had a pacemaker, or had experienced a whiplash incident and there was a long lineup of eager schoolchildren ready to go!

You’ll find over 2,000 piggy banks in this museum.

Lifestyles - When I visited Stuttgart, Germany, I checked out the usual tourist attractions which included an exploration of the city centre with its eye-popping Palace Square (Schlossplatz), its crowded pedestrian-only shopping street (Koenigstrasse) and its spectacular overview from the summit of the Clock Tower (in the Hauptbahnhof/train station).

I also, of course, visited its two very popular car museums: the Porsche and the Mercedes-Benz Museums (which I’ve previously written about). However, I also discovered some other rather strange, unique attractions to add to this list and perhaps the most intriguing of them all was the largest pig museum in the world.

If you’re ‘into’ pigs, then put Stuttgart’s Schweine Museum on your list of places to visit, for it’s the ultimate porcine experience. It contains well over 40,000 pig artifacts and paraphernalia in 25 themed rooms on two floors and it’s quite a sight. I found this unique museum housed in what used to be a slaughterhouse and it now glorifies the pig. What a turnaround! There’s a history of the pig and a great variety of art and objects that feature the pig. However, I also found a restaurant on the premises, offering several pork specialties.

I visited the “golden pig room” where a massive, golden, rotating pig sculpture was displayed. I also checked out the “piggy bank room” with its more than 2,000 piggy banks. I also saw a “divine swine” section, and rooms of stuffed pigs, pig art, pig figurines, pig coffee mugs and antique collectors items. There was even a room dedicated to pigs and sex dubbed the “pig porn room”. Everything you ever wanted to know about the pig but were afraid to ask!

One of the piggy banks dated from the 13th century, and one of the many quotations on display on the museum’s walls was by Sir Winston Churchill: “I like pigs. Dogs look up to

Walter Gretzky a hit at Roots of Hockey dinner

And he had the over 200 people attending the dinner laughing uproariously as he did it.

Unlike the lore surrounding his son, Walter apparently did not build an outdoor rink in their backyard to help Wayne become a better hockey player, he did it for self-preservation.

“Forty-five years ago, the winters used to be a lot colder than they are today and everybody had an outdoor rink – the schools, parks, everybody,” he told the crowd. “I use to go to the outdoor rinks and kids don’t feel the cold until they come home and start to thaw out.”

He said he couldn’t sit in the car and keep it running because gasoline cost 18 cents a gallon then.

“One night, I came home and I said to my wife Phyllis, “Phyllis, this is so stupid! I go to these outdoor rinks and I freeze to death. You know what I’m going to do? I’m going to make a rink in the backyard and Wayne can stay there as long as he wants and I’ll be in the house where it’s nice and warm. Honestly, it was just selfpreservation,” he explained in a plaintive voice, eliciting laughter from the crowd.

Another of his hilarious stories concerned that very rink and his method of flooding it. At first he started out with a hose on spray and would stand there night after night flooding it. But as time passed, he came up with the idea of using a sprinkler so he could set it on the ice and leave it there for an hour and a half and then go out and move it to another area of the rink.

That system worked until one night Walter Gretzky had his audience laughing he fell asleep and woke up just a half uproariously during his talk on Saturday night. hour before he had to go to work at Bell

By Ross Lees

Sports – Quinte West –Walter Gretzky had them rolling in the aisles at the “Roots of Hockey” dinner Saturday night at the National Air Force Museum of Canada in Trenton.

Hockey’s most famous father proved over and over again that he has what it takes to entertain ardent hockey fans despite the aneurism he suffered in 1991, which has robbed him of his short-term memory and all memory from the early 70s until 2000.

The indomitable Mr. Gretzky spent the evening doing two things – signing autographs for all who wanted it and setting the record straight about his famous hockey son and their family life in Brantford, Ontario.

Canada. He rushed out to the rink and found a mound of ice with the hose leading into it. He tried to pull the sprinkler out and broke it.

He rushed into the house and asked Phyllis to go down to the hardware store and replace the sprinkler because he would be home at lunch to set it up again.

When he returned home at lunch, Phyllis was fuming and said to him,” Don’t you ever pull that damned stunt again!”

When Walter asked her what was wrong, she said, “Don’t get smart with me. Did you do that on purpose?”

Walter asked her what she was talking about and she promptly explained in no uncertain terms.

“I walked into that hardware store and it’s 15 below zero and I asked for a sprinkler. That guy thought I was crazy!”

Again, the crowd burst out laughing to Walter’s delight.

The Gretzkys had a strong feeling that Wayne was going to be a great hockey player by the time he was seven years old. Walter walked up to Wayne one Saturday night while Wayne was watching Hockey Night in Canada and saw him drawing lines on a piece of paper diagrammed like a rink. Wayne was following the puck as it moved around the rink. Where the lines crossed over and over again was where Wayne realized the puck went most often.

“He was already playing a thinking

game when he was seven years old,” Walter explained. “As you people know, Wayne’s game wasn’t speed, it was finesse and a game of thought, so that’s when it all started.”

Sometimes you wonder how he developed his skill when you listen to Walter. According to his father, Wayne’s first goalie was his grandmother, who would sit in her Lazy Boy chair and stop shots from a young Wayne in his stocking feet firing a sponge puck or ball with a miniature stick.

One night when another local hockey player much bigger than Wayne was holding Wayne against the boards so he couldn’t move, that same grandmother came down from her seat in the sixth row and started hitting the other hockey player with her purse.

“We never left Grandma Gretzky alone (at) the rink after that,” Walter noted.

While Walter had many stories to tell, we’ll leave you with just one more. Walter had been out on a speaking engagement one night (he was paid $10,000) just prior to Christmas and he arrived home with just about an hour and a half of shopping time left. He told Phyllis he had not had an opportunity to buy her a present, but if she told him what she wanted, he would go down and buy it right away.

Phyllis, ever the opportunist, asked him, “Anything I want?”

Walter of course replied in the affirmative.

Phyllis promptly responded, “I want a divorce.”

Walter came back with, “Hang on, I wasn’t planning on spending that much!”
