BADGaS fuels up for OMB hearing By Joyce Cassin

News - Brighton - The Brighton Against Downtown Gas Station (BADGaS) committee is fueling up to face off against municipal council in a battle to keep a Mac’s Convenience gas station in the heart of downtown, and they’re looking to members of the public for help. “Seventy-seven people came out to join us, to understand and listen to the facts as to what we’re trying to accomplish,â€? said David Green, cochair of the (BADGaS) committee after a meeting Thursday night. Green said there are three appellants who are planning to ďŹ le with the Ontario Municipal Board by the deadline of February 24, after council voted February 2 to change the zoning to allow a station in the downtown core. The ofďŹ cial plan, approved just last year, speciďŹ cally does not allow for this type of business, he said, adding that once gas station lands become vacant for more than a year and a day, the zoning no longer applies, and it can’t become a gas station again.

OMHA quarter-final action

“There is no grandfathering,â€? Green said. “We believe this gas station, built to handle twelve vehicles at a time, would bring trafďŹ c chaos to an already busy intersection, create dangerous conditions for pedestrians and destroy Brighton’s downtown ambience,â€? Green said. The trio is planning to use the fact that council went against its own professional staff recommendations as part of their defense. “A gas bar is not appropriate in the core area of the municipality; it is a ‘vehicle oriented use,’ more appropriately a highway commercial use,â€? Green said. “In rejecting this advice, the four assenting council members offered no contradictory evidence to counter the planner’s professional advice. In fact, Mayor Mark Walas stated that ‘it is probably not the best solution for our downtown,’ and Councillor Martinello agreed saying, ‘it may not be the best solution but we’ve got it on the table.’â€?

Local health unit seeks input on future work

YOU R INDEPENDENT GROCER

News - Trent Hills - The local health unit is asking for the public’s input to strengthen ways the organization can accomplish the work proposed under its three new strategic priorities. The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge (HKPR) District Health Unit drafted three strategic priorities designed to help guide its work through to 2016. It is now asking for the public’s feedback to assess the relevance of these priorities and awareness of its programs and services. The strategic priorities are: Social Determinants of Health, Mental Health, and Communications. For each priority, the Health Unit has developed a series of actions and indicators of success. “Through our many programs and services, the Health Unit works with a variety of individuals and organizations,â€? said Medical OfďŹ cer of Health Dr. Lynn Noseworthy. “As an organization, we have determined what we think are the priorities that will strengthen the Health Unit’s programs and services to support our communities. We are now asking the people who receive our programs and services what they think about the actions and indicators of success for each priority.â€? Area residents are being asked to

Belleville

visit the Health Unit’s website <http:// www.hkpr.on.ca/About/StrategicPlan. aspx> where they will ďŹ nd the Strategic Priorities Chart 2014-2016 and a link to a short online survey where they can comment on the priorities, actions and indicators of success and also indicate use and awareness of our programs and services. The deadline for completing the survey is Friday, February 20. “We value the feedback of our residents and community partners and hope that their input can strengthen the work we do under these priorities,â€? said Dr. Noseworthy. Once the survey results have been tabulated, the Health Unit will review comments and make any necessary changes to the priorities, actions and indicators of success. The ďŹ nal plan will be presented at a future Board of Health meeting and posted on the Health Unit’s website. The HKPR District Health Unit provides public health programs and services to approximately 172,000 residents of the counties of Northumberland Haliburton and the City of Kawartha Lakes. The Health Unit employs approximately 140 employees in ofďŹ ces based in Port Hope, Brighton, Lindsay and Haliburton.

Walk the walk and learn from the talk in “Hike with Us” series News - Brighton - You think you’ve had it rough trying to survive the cold, what about the birds and animals; how do they ever manage? You can learn how wildlife adapts and thrives in challenging conditions by going on a two-hour hike at the Seymour Conservation Area March 7, starting at 10 a.m. It’s the first of five outings Lower Trent Conservation has planned for its “Hike with Us” series in 2015. The conservation authority introduced the series last year as part of Conservation Ontario’s Healthy Hikes Challenge, and the walks were “very well received,” said ecology and stewardship specialist Ewa Bednarczuk. “We generally had pretty good attendance when the weather was good. People really enjoyed the hikes [and] felt they learned a lot

about their own neighbourhood, so I’m expecting a good turnout [again this year]. “They’re meant to highlight some of the beautiful areas in our watershed and tell people a little bit more about their natural history and maybe cultural history.” A fifth event has been added to the series this year, “Paddle the Trent,” which will take place August 8 at the Keating-Hoards Natural Habitat Area. Rather than go on foot around one of Lower Trent’s properties, participants will be asked to bring kayaks or canoes to travel the back channel behind Wilson Island. “That’s going to be really neat,” Bednarczuk said. “There’s a beautiful wetland marsh that lines the back channel there” and the water is “pretty calm … This is the first time we’re doing an excursion on the water.

It “should be a lot of fun.” Each outing has a theme. “Ground Awakening” April 25 at Goodrich-Loomis Conservation Area will focus on the “very first spring wildflowers that come out, their ecology, how they pair up with different pollinators.” “Heart of the Watershed” will take place May 8 at the Murray Marsh and the final outing, “In Fall Swing,” September 25 at Proctor Park Conservation Area, will be held during Brighton Applefest. “They’re not really strenuous hikes,” Bednarczuk said, but some do involve going up slopes on occasion. “I tend to walk and stop and talk quite a bit and point at things so you don’t need to be an athlete by any means.” She recommended taking along a snack, as the hikes generally last two hours. Bednarczuk said “there’s such an interest in the natural world and

it’s nice to stop and have a closer look at it.” You might come across “a plant or a critter that lives next door to you [that] you don’t know about it” or find out “that there are flying squirrels that glide around at night in your backyard.” Or it could be “a hairy plant that’s kind of wearing a fur coat” that’s the first to bloom in the spring “even when there is still snow on the ground.” People find the “little stories” she tells about the plants and animals in these natural areas “really neat” as “they learn more about what’s going on around them. “Get out, move around a little bit, and enjoy all the health benefits of being outside,” Bednarczuk said. The hikes are held rain or shine. For more information call the Lower Trent at 613-394-4829, or email <information@ltc.on.ca>.

Changes to management of Murray Marsh begin this year

By John Campbell

News - Brighton - Having approved a Murray Marsh Natural Habitat Management Plan last September, Lower Trent Conservation will begin implementing some of its more than 40 recommendations this year. The main one that’s going to come into play has to do with “permissions … and what the rules are in terms of hunting in the natural

habitat area,” said ecology and stewardship specialist Ewa Bednarczuk. “That would be the biggest change” of all the ones proposed. The conservation authority is “starting to move on a few” of the recommendations but it’s “more of a long-term plan” that lays out “a framework for moving forward,” she said. “Nothing has really happened on a big scale.” The recommendations include

continuing to allow hunting but to divide the marsh into two hunting zones, A (190 hectares) and B (275 hectares), and to require each registered hunter to complete an annual survey regarding hunting experience and game harvested. Currently, there is no wildlife game population data specifically for the Murray Marsh. The number of permits issued will be limited to 15 in zone A and Dwayne Inch, Chair of the Board Mandy Savery-Whiteway Director of Education

30 in zone B; 30 in total has been the limit. The plan notes that hunting “garnered the most attention” during the document’s development by LTC staff, who consulted the public and external agencies. Comments for and against hunting were received during the process, which included an open house held at Codrington last April that drew about 25 people. It was defended as “a traditional cultural heritage activity” that “provides recreational, social, and economic value” and is a contributor to “sustainable wildlife management.” On the other hand it was said hunting “can result in ecological impacts” and increase the potential for accidents for hunters, staff and other marsh users, additional liability for the LTC, damage to crops and conflict with neighbouring landowners. Hunting “is seen by some individuals to be an inappropriate use” of conservation lands, and hunters often use off-leash dogs and ATVs, neither of which is a permitted activity on LTC properties. Encompassing 3,760 hectares, Murray Marsh is one of the largest remaining wetlands in southeastern Ontario, stretching ten kilometres along Percy Reach on the Trent River south of Campbellford and extending south for eight kilometres to almost Wooler.

ning in the business world: “When you’re up to your behind in alligators it’s hard to remind yourself that the objective was to drain the swamp.� Your report clearly shows that some members of Brighton council are confused and frustrated with the budget process and divided when it comes to what action to take. Those alligators can do that to you, but it doesn’t have to be that way. If they would just hit the pause button and spend some time reaching a consensus on the way forward for our community, build a vision and strategic plan (and perhaps get community buy-in) they would find it easier to do their job of “setting direction and policy� and trusting administration under the CAO to “manage resources and staff to achieve council’s vision.� The current ad hoc approach is clearly not working, without a cohesive vi-

sion for the future not only council but the community will be divided. This is illustrated by a letter to the editor in the same issue in which Brighton resident Frank Amstutz (“Voicing my opinion�) makes the point “that this council was elected only four months ago by a majority of the citizens of Brighton who gave it a clear mandate for change.� On the face of it that is absolutely true but what changes were those voters in favour of–we were offered a potpourri of various changes by the seven winning candidates so who can say which of those proposals are supported by a majority of voters. I thoroughly agree with Mr. Amstutz when he says, “Newly elected municipal governments, like their provincial and federal counterparts, are not bound to the policy of the previous government� but the big difference is that the upper levels of

97.5 hectares, which are primarily farmed for soy and corn. “We are looking into other ways of combining agriculture and conservation on those properties,â€? Bednarczuk said. There’s also a small parcel of open ďŹ eld for apiculture (beekeeping). The management plan recommends adopting a “‘leave it alone’ philosophyâ€? and maintaining Murray Marsh in its natural state, minimizing its promotion as a public use area, “recognizing that some promotion is beneďŹ cial as a means of increasing education and awareness about the value of wetlands and other natural heritage features.â€?

Noting ora and fauna inventories of the entire wetland are more than 30 years old, the plan advocates setting up a database for plant and wildlife species and monitoring them for changes in diversity and abundance. Species at risk should be protected by implementing habitat improvements, “where appropriate and feasibleâ€? and invasive species managed and removed, again, where feasible. The plan says the Lower Trent should consider the cost and beneďŹ ts of acquiring lands surrounding the Murray Marsh “when opportunities arise in order to promote connectivity of wetlands, forests, and other natural habitats.â€?

Good luck to have potluck

Egypt under Sisi

Editorial - The “Islamic State” franchise in Libya, which is emerging as the main winner in that country’s chaotic civil war, published a video on Sunday showing 21 Egyptian men in orange overalls being forced to the ground and beheaded. The video made it clear that they were being killed for beGwynne Dyer ing Christian, “people of the cross, followers of the hostile Egyptian church.” Within hours the Egyptian air force responded with raids on IS camps and training sites in Derna, the group’s headquarters in eastern Libya. Announcing the safe return of all the aircraft, the Egyptian military authorities declared: “Let those far and near know that Egyptians have a shield that protects them.” But it didn’t really protect them, did it? Okay, that’s not fair. Everybody knows that you can’t protect people once they fall into the hands of the jihadi head-choppers. An air force is a particularly unsuitable tool for that job, nor can anyone stop unemployed Egyptian labourers from seeking work even in war-torn Libya. Most of the victims came from a dirt-poor Christian village in Upper Egypt, and they had to feed their families somehow. So the Islamic State fanatics murdered them because that is effective propaganda for a certain demographic where they are seeking recruits. Then the Egyptian air force flailed out aimlessly, and the public relations boys wrote the usual guff about the air force being a shield for the people. So far, so tediously normal–but the whole event also serves the narrative of the Egyptian military regime. We’re not supposed to call it a military regime. The military coup (with substantial popular support) that overthrew the elected president, Mohamed Morsi, in July 2013, was allegedly just a brief detour from democracy. But the commander of the armed forces, General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, ended up as president, and the promised parliamentary elections have still not happened. Why not? The main excuse Egyptians are offered is that the government is too busy fighting the huge terrorist threat Egypt faces. And don’t mention that the terrorism is largely the regime’s own fault, or that the threat is not so big that normal political life must be suspended. People who say that have featured prominently among the 40,000 who have been arrested since July 2013. (16,000 are still in prison.) What happened in Egypt twenty months ago was a betrayal of the democratic revolution of February 2011, when peaceful demonstrators forced former

general Hosni Mubarak out of the presidency after 30 years in power. Few of the urban, relatively well educated revolutionaries on Tahrir Square supported the Muslim Brotherhood, but they should not have been surprised when it won the first free election. Ninety per cent of Egyptians are Muslims, and most of them are deeply conservative rural people. They remembered that the Muslim Brotherhood had been Egypt’s main opposition party during the decades of dictatorship. They shared many of its values, and many of them had benefited from its social programs for the poor. They reckoned the Brothers deserved the first go in power, and gave it their votes. More secular people were appalled when a Muslim Brotherhooddominated constituent assembly amended the constitution to give it a more religious slant, although the changes were not actually all that extreme. And they forgot that in a democracy, you can change the government by voting it out. You just have to wait for the next election. Victory in the first post-revolution election was a poisoned apple for the Muslim Brotherhood. Every day its behaviour in power was alienating more people. The economy was a wreck (and still is). But it was not making irreversible changes in Egypt, so the right strategy was to wait it out, and then vote it out. Instead, the naive and impatient revolutionaries made an alliance with the army to drive the elected government from power. Did they think that the army, despite 60 years of military dictators in Egypt, was a secret ally of democracy? So General Sisi accepted their support, took over the government in 2013, and put President Morsi in jail. Shortly afterwards, he began putting the revolutionaries in jail too. But Sisi needs some excuse for destroying Egypt’s democratic revolution, and the excuse is terrorism, the bigger the better. He declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organisation, and when tens of thousands of non-violent supporters of the Brotherhood established a protest camp in Rabaa Square in Cairo he cleared it by force, killing at least 627 people by the government’s own count. Human Rights Watch has documented at least 817 deaths, and suspects there were more than a thousand. It was, said an HRW report last August, a premeditated assault equal to or worse than the massacre of Chinese protesters on Tienanmen Square in Beijing in 1989. The purpose, as in 1989, was to cow the population into submission, and it is working in Egypt as well as it did in China. But a bit of terrorism also helps to distract attention at home and abroad from what actually happened in Egypt. Even before the ghastly slaughter of innocent Egyptians in Libya on Sunday, the U.S. Congress had put military aid to Egypt back into this year’s budget proposal.

By Terry Bush Editorial - Some people cringe at the word while others smile from ear to ear. I’m happy to say that I’m in the latter category because when my wife asked me if I wanted to go to a Valentine’s Day “potluck” in our neighbourhood, I tried my best not to smile too much lest a little drool escape my mouth. Drooling is never a good look for a man. Considering we start our lives with wet faces and some of us will also end up that way, it’s best that any drooling done in middle age be left to the privacy of one’s own bedroom and pillow. My fondness for potluck suppers is both a result of my small town upbringing and a regular date I had early in life. Anyone raised in a rural community knows well enough the fun of a neighbourhood get together. Because my great grandparents had a flock of kids, we also enjoyed a regular potluck Bush picnic held usually at the home of Jack and Joan Bush on the Trent River. It was there I first experienced the joy of unlimited food, unlimited cousins and best of all, unlimited desserts lovingly prepared by the women folk. Back then it was rare to see the men do more than peel the odd potato to help out in the meal department. The only exception was barbecuing, though I’ve never really figured out how men thought they were the sex most qualified to cook meat over an open flame when women did such a fine job the other eight months of the year. And fudge of course. While the male members of my family were usually too busy doing chores around the farm to help out with the meals, my father and uncles managed to find time to make fudge for every special occasion. And they were good at it. It almost seemed like a competition of sorts and if a batch didn’t turn out exactly as expected, the passing of the plate often came with a disclaimer giving the exact reason it wasn’t perfect. To small kids, it all tasted great. My regular date for a potluck came once a year, when our neighbour Harry Waite would ask if he could borrow me for the annual father and son potluck supper at the United Church. The Waites had no sons, and my parents had a few spares lying around so they volunteered me for the first year and they didn’t have to twist my arm after that. The potluck was always great and with no limit on pie, one little Bush boy always came home stuffed and happy. Potluck suppers seem to me to be more of a rural experience though I’m sure everyone pitches in at group suppers in the “Big Smoke” as well. I’m

basing that statement on a few conversations with some city in-laws who don’t quite get the concept. When we used to have an annual corn roast at our old place, we’d supply the corn, some salads and a few other things to eat and leave the rest to the people attending. What should we bring, some city dwellers would say. It’s potluck, we’d say. But what should we bring they’d respond. Lost on them were both the concept and the meaning of the word. They didn’t quite get the fact that people would just bring whatever dish they wanted to bring and if it was taking place in a country setting, chances are people would bring a main dish and a dessert. The fun is in seeing what arrives. If you tell everyone what to bring, then what does luck have to do with it? At our corn roasts we were always lucky enough to have some entertainment. When contacted, one of our regular pickers would ask, “Did you invite the local farm ladies?” When I said yes, he’d always say, “Count us in then; farm ladies mean homemade pie.” The trick to a really great potluck supper is when people think outside the box and bring something they know nobody else will bring. My wife Mare likes to live on the edge, so for this supper she brought out the Junior Women’s Institute cookbook she has stashed away for just such an occasion. The living on the edge part comes in when you realize that the event was put on by the local Women’s Institute, so there was that distinct possibility that someone else might bring the same thing. She was safe with her fancy sounding peas and onions au gratin and after we were done filling ourselves, she was happy she didn’t go with the macaroni and cheese she’d first considered making. That’s one menu item you can always count on at one of these suppers along with scalloped potatoes. And I must admit that I did go up for seconds because I love scalloped potatoes and mac and cheese. So while we munched away at our neighbourhood potluck, some of us got joking about going to the Queensborough potluck the next day. I’m not sure if the other couples made it but we decided to go to Belleville to go shopping instead. The thought of another great home-cooked meal weighed heavy on my mind though and I seem to recall dabbing at the corner of my mouth once or twice. We ended up at North China Buffet. Not potluck but in a pinch, it was the next best thing.

Local health unit seeks input on future work News - Trent Hills - The local health unit is asking for the public’s input to strengthen ways the organization can accomplish the work proposed under its three new strategic priorities. The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge (HKPR) District Health Unit drafted three strategic priorities designed to help guide its work through to 2016. It is now asking for the public’s feedback to assess the relevance of these priorities and awareness of its programs and services. The strategic priorities are: Social Determinants of Health, Mental Health, and Communications. For each priority, the Health Unit has developed a series of actions and indicators of success. “Through our many programs and services, the Health Unit works with a variety of individuals and organizations,” said Medical Officer of Health Dr. Lynn Noseworthy. “As an organization, we have determined what we think are the priorities that will strengthen the Health Unit’s programs and services to support our communities. We are now asking the people who receive our programs and services what they think about the actions and indicators of success for each priority.” Area residents are being asked to visit the Health Unit’s website <http:// www.hkpr.on.ca/About/StrategicPlan. aspx> where they will find the Strategic Priorities Chart 2014-2016 and a link to a short online survey where they can comment on the priorities, actions and indicators of success and also indicate use and awareness of our programs and services. The deadline for completing the survey is Friday, February 20. “We value the feedback of our residents and community partners and hope that their input can strengthen the work we do under these priorities,” said Dr. Noseworthy. Once the survey results have been tabulated, the Health Unit will review comments and make any necessary changes to the priorities, actions and indicators of success. The final plan will be presented at a future Board of Health meeting and posted on the Health Unit’s website. The HKPR District Health Unit provides public health programs and services to approximately 172,000 residents of the counties of Northumberland Haliburton and the City of Kawartha Lakes. The Health Unit employs approximately 140 employees in offices based in Port Hope, Brighton, Lindsay and Haliburton.


Swifts may not return if chimney is demolished Brad Paul, who used to work for Imperial Oil reclaiming sites, said that Devon Estates only cleaned up the property to support another gas station, and he couldn’t understand why it’s been an eyesore for the past ten years. “Devon Estates cleaned it up to a level to support another gas station,” he said quoting the Mac’s representative at an earlier council meeting. “Why was Devon Estates allowed, because I presume they had to get a permit … to only

clean it up enough to support a gas station when the land was rezoned to be anything but.” “I personally think something else is going on,” he added, but didn’t specify. Many of the people present were in support of the appeal, donating funds, and making offers to fundraise. Green said they need about $8,000 to fund the appeal. Those wishing to support Green and his co-appellants, Kamran Sheikh, along with co-appellants Steve White and

Tracey Acker, can drop money or a cheque made payable to BADGaS at the End of the Thread or The Pump gas station, via mail to Wayne Jefferson, P.O. Box 854, Brighton, K0K 1H0, through a direct deposit to account #08442-9620915, or donate online through PayPal. Green also encourages people to contact Mac’s Convenience representative Bruce Watson, director customer relations and government compliance at <bruce.watson@macs.ca> or 1-800-268-5574.

technical analysis of the proposed development indicated several potential issues that suggest this land use/access scheme is not a “good fit” for this location from a traffic operations and safety perspective,” wrote Garry Pappin, senior associate with Stantec Consulting in his summary of the report. The matter of a pair of chimney swifts nesting in the PayDay building chimney was said not to have been resolved. Green said that Mac’s had not

signed off on a solution to keeping the chimney intact for this endangered bird. Maureen Campeau, cocoordinator for Swift Watch Ontario, Northumberland, has been watching the birds for the past several years and expressed her concern that should the chimney be moved to the new building as was mentioned in the Mac’s proposal, the birds likely would not return. “They’re just little birds and nobody gives a s**t,” she said.

Police track down driver of stolen car that rolled off highway News - Brighton - A Trenton woman was charged with several offences after Northumberland OPP tracked down the driver of a stolen vehicle that had rolled over on Highway 401 and landed in the ditch. Police received a report of a Honda Civic being in a ditch west of County Road 30 around 6:30 p.m. February 11. The car had been stolen from the Trenton

area. No one was around when emergency services arrived but police noted a set of tracks leading away from the scene to a wooded area. The OPP’s Emergency Response Team and K9 unit were summoned to assist in the search. Officers followed the footprints through thick brush and located the uninjured driver an hour later, two kilometres east of where the

car had left the road. Police charged the woman with theft of a motor vehicle, possession of stolen property over $5,000, failure to remain at the scene of an accident, failure to report an accident, and driving when the driver’s licence is under suspension. She is to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brighton April 7

Green agreed that the empty lot is an eyesore and he wants to see it cleaned up, “but the price of this project in terms of traffic problems, safety, and its devastating effect on the ambience of the town centre is too high.” The fact is that the company hired to do a peer review of a traffic impact study presented by Mac’s feel it is not a good fit. “Our review of MMM’s (Mac’s consultant) original

New WBA president talks about a sense of community By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - “A sense of community” is one of the driving forces that make this village and organizations such as the Warkworth Business Association (WBA) so successful, according to Kim MacNeil, the newly elected president who will be steering this group as it examines what’s next. With the recent completion of Phase 3 of the village’s revitalization plan, the WBA is now looking at what the needs are to keep this “vibrant” village moving forward. And there’s another part to the equation that contributes to the successes. “The way we have always worked in Warkworth is we do our part and we go to the municipality and say what we’ve done, will you participate … this is what we’re doing can you put us higher on the list when funding comes through … we’ve always worked on this basis, we don’t go in with our hands out,” said MacNeil. Case in point, Phase 2b and 3, bridge painting and bridge lighting, were included in the municipal budget, and it was the blood, sweat and tears of volunteers that brought the project to completion. “Most of the projects we’ve done

with money from government grants, the Warkworth Community Foundation and as well individuals in Warkworth have put a lot of money towards our projects, raised money for benches and trees, and the Warkworth Community Service Club has helped us out,” she explained. “With the end of the revitalization project we are looking at what do we need to do now to bring people to town,” she said, with her usual enthusiasm. “We want to make sure we continue to have events [such as the Long Lunch] which are directed towards enhancing the community.” Listing events that do this, making Warkworth a destination of choice, she talked about the Lilac Festival, Art in the Park, the pop art and music series, the efforts of the new arts and heritage organization and Dream Worth, a relatively new project headed by Bev Roy to bring events to the town hall. The WBA is also working on a plan to raise money to make the town hall (Warkworth Town Hall Centre for the Arts) accessible. “If you’ve got a vibrant town hall then you’ve got people coming to town and we know when the government funding comes forward

It’s all in a day’s work

News - Brighton - Calls for assistance received by Northumberland OPP last week included a dispute between an 82-year-old man and his 44-year-old daughter February 10. “Police ended up advising the daughter that she was no longer welcome at her dad’s home,” Constable Steve Bates, the detachment’s media relations officer, said in his weekly roundup of incidents across the county

the municipality will appreciate what we can bring to the table,” said MacNeil. The WBA also wants to work on bringing its local restaurants “to the forefront.” As part of its own organizational changes the WBA has also developed a membership program. “We decided we had to implement membership fees because we need to be doing work on our website,” she explained. The WBA has also added lower levels to the fee structure where interested people in the community can become part of the WBA and receive minutes. For MacNeil the WBA is also about partnerships, with individuals, organizations and the municipality and others. “We so appreciate our partnership with the municipality over the years,” she commented. Two more valuable partners, she added, are the Trent Hills and District Chamber of Commerce and the Sandy Flat Maple Syrup Festival. “So it’s not just me, it’s all of us,” Kim MacNeil, who owns Eclectic Mix in Warkworth, is the newly elected president of the Warkworth she concluded.

Chimney swifts could fly the coop By Joyce Cassin

News - Brighton - Little chimney swifts come up from Peru, flapping their little arms up and down for thousands of miles, says Maureen Campeau, co-coordinator for Swift Watch Ontario for Northumberland County. She is concerned that the little birds will be homeless if the Mac’s Convenience and gas bar at the corner of Prince Edward and Elizabeth Streets moves forward and the two buildings to the north of it are torn down. “Eleven thousand Chimney Swifts make Canada their home during the breeding season,” she said during a recent interview. “And Canada is 9,984,670 square kilometres.” Asked for a comparison, she said there are approximately 50 million robins in Canada compared to only 11,000 swifts. “The migrating birds do not nest during the winter in the southern wintering areas and only breed once a year, when they come to Canada. The current nesting site

in Brighton is far more important than a 12-pump gas bar,” she said. According to a report by Chris Ellingwood in the Mac’s proposal, there is only the one nesting site in Brighton, and a roosting site in a chimney at East Northumberland Secondary School. He recommended removing the existing chimney and save the pieces so it could be reconstructed and incorporated into the plans for the proposed convenience store … but if the chimney could not be saved, a new one should be built to house the endangered birds. Moving the existing chimney to a new building at or within 30 metres of the existing location, is not a viable option in Campeau’s opinion. The existing site is the chimney attached to the PayDay building beside the small alleyway. “The site offers relative quiet and no chance of the nesting site being disturbed by anything,” she said. “Imagine placing the chimney on the building of a business

that will operate 24 hours a day. Semitrucks will be exiting the site with the noise of the exhaust being level with the nest inside the chimney. Can you imagine the vibration a truck that size would make on the chimney? These two issues alone could very well prevent this Species at Risk - chimney swift from nesting or perhaps even lead them to abandon a nest,” she said. Having been an observer for several years, Campeau said she has yet to find another nesting site in the area, and she’s very concerned. “The loss of the current nesting site is not a ‘near’ tragedy but a complete tragedy,” she said. She said there is only one nest in the chimney, so it’s vital it remain. Options provided in the report from the Ministry of Natural Resources are not acceptable, she said. “They all suggest some form of moving or destroying an existing site. If the MNR has documented proof that its suggestions

do not work, why would Chris Ellingwood even think of suggesting any of them to RFA Planning Consultant Inc.,” she said. She added that any change/removal of the nest, could strongly prevent the chimney swift from nesting where they have for more years than anyone will ever know. “Chances of them returning to a moved site is pretty darned slim,” she said. “It’s a death sentence.” She said she was assured by Ellingwood that the chimney would not be removed during the active season (April to end of August), and that all work would be completed after the August migration south to Peru begins and be completely finished before the migration north. Mr. Ellingwood states: “The proposed mitigation ‘will’ maintain one active nest in Brighton.” “Good for him to appease the conscience of Mac’s [who have not signed off on his report],” she said. “I am most certain that Mr. Ellingwood knows that

any change in a nesting site or habitat could be detrimental to the chimney swift. You would think he would but I am not totally sure he is.” She added, “Basically, no one cares, or is even slightly interested in this species at risk. Herein lies one of the most important [as far as I am concerned] factors in this plan for the corner of Elizabeth and Prince Edward Streets–species at risk.” “Shame on the current council for making a decision without having all the facts or ignoring what facts they did have. Shame on them for not making sure that Mac’s would adhere to the recommendation made by NEA,” she said. There have been three appeals prepared for filing to an Ontario Municipal Board opposing the Mac’s proposal as of Tuesday, February 17. Council approved the proposal last month, and passed the bylaw to change the zoning to allow for a gas bar and convenience store on February 2.

Residents urged to ensure measles vaccinations up to date vaccines. If people are uncertain about the vaccines they have received, they can contact their health care provider or call the Health Unit at 1-866-888-4577. Adults born before 1970 are generally presumed to have acquired natural immunity to measles, says Holt. However, some of these individuals may still be susceptible to measles, so they should watch for symptoms. Signs and symptoms of measles include high fever, runny nose, cough, drowsiness, irritability, soreness and redness of the

News - Trent Hills - With measles circulating in parts of southern Ontario, local health officials are asking people to ensure they are up to date on their own immunizations. As February 11, no lab-confirmed cases of measles had been reported by the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge (HKPR) District Health Unit in its area. The health unit covers Haliburton County, Northumberland County and the City of Kawartha Lakes. However, measles cases have been confirmed in Toronto, Niagara Region and York Region. While the risk posed by measles to most people is low, the Health Unit is encouraging area residents to take precautions by checking their vaccination records. In a press release the Health Unit noted that measles is a highly infectious disease that can particularly affect infants under one year of age, pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems. “Because measles can easily be spread from person to person, local residents are asked to check their records to ensure they and their family members are up to date on their vaccinations for measles,” said Anne Marie Holt, director of communicable disease control, epidemiology and evaluation with the HKPR District Health Unit. “Vaccination against measles is the most effective way to protect yourself and your loved ones.” Currently in Ontario, protection against measles is provided in two doses of vaccine, both of which are publicly funded. The first dose is given soon after a child’s first birthday as part of the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine. The second dose of the vaccine is given to children just prior to entering school (between four and six years of age) as the MMRV vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella and varicella). People should check their records to ensure they have received both of these

Natural fertilizers loaded with nutrients and minerals Lawn and garden enthusiasts know a handful of items are essential to maintain a healthy landscape. Water, sunshine and the proper nutrients all work in concert to promote a healthy lawn. Although nutritional material is inherent in the soil, many gardeners feel soil must be amended with some sort of fertilizer to give plants a healthy boost. All-natural fertilizers are growing in popularity, and home gardeners have a variety of such products at their disposal. Ambitious homeowners can even create their own all-natural fertilizers from items around the house. Organic fertilizers, or those that are derived from living organisms and not manufacturered through chemicals, can provide sufficient nutrients and minerals to grow healthy plants.

The waste from herbivores (animals that feed on grass), including rabbits, horses and cows, can make super fertilizers. Some gardeners shy away from manure because they believe it to be an odoriferous, dirty product. The best produced manures are allowed to compost for at least nine months and are mixed with hay or straw. They should not produce an offensive odor and will provide plants with a host of nutrients. Never use manures from meat-eating animals, like dogs, cats or humans. Feces can harbor a lot of bacteria, which can be transfered to the garden soil.

Fish and seaweed Improving soil nutrients may be as simple as looking to the ocean or other bodies of water. Fish emulsion, a mixture of ground fish and water, is a good nitrogen source. Nitrogen gives plants the energy to grow. Seaweed, which is actually a type of algae, contains the primary nutrients that plants need in order to thrive, including phosphorous, nitrogen and potassium. It also serves as a food for natural bacteria that break down nutrients into the soil, making them easier for plants to absorb.

Worms

In order to store energy and reach maturity, plants need phosphate. This mineral is released over a long period of time from finely ground rock. However, a faster way to supply it to the landscape is through bone meal. Bone meal is a mixture of finely and coarsely ground animal bones that are a waste product from meat-processing plants. Adding bone meal to soil is one of the most effective ways to increase phosphorous levels.

Manure

RICK NORLOCK, MP

Earthworms are vital to soil health. They burrow and wiggle around in the dirt, helping to aerate the soil. But the castings, or waste, of the worms also provide valuable nutrients to the soil. The castings contain beneficial microorganisms from the worms' digestive system that help break down organic matter into a form that plant roots can use. Many gardeners participate in vermicomposting, or farming worms in order to use their castings as fertilizer.

Compost Compost can also be used as fertilizer. Gardeners can make their own compost from discarded materials. Compost is one of the most widely used soil amendments in vegetable gardens. Yard refuse, fruit and vegetable peelings, eggshells, coffee grounds, and other items can be added to a compost pile.

Feed for every need.

But subtle shifts in dietary habits and trends can decrease mortality rates and reduce global greenhouse gas emissions resulting from food production. Adopting alternative diets that feature a higher ratio of fish, whole grains and locally grown produce can greatly reduce an individual's carbon footprint. The "New Nordic Diet" is one example of a growing dietary trend that has the potential to improve the health of humans and the environment. So says Henrik Saxe, an associate professor who specializes in sustainability at Copenhagen University. Researchers found a reduction in greenhouse gases of at least 6 percent with the New Nordic Diet, as compared to typical diets in Denmark. The following are a few ways average men and women can eat to promote their own health while simultaneously protecting the environment. · Adopt climate-friendly eating habits that rely on more domestic, in-season foods. · Cut down on meat consumption. · Avoid seafood harvested from fish farms which can negatively impact your own health and marine life. · Grow your own fruits and vegetables. · Shop at local markets that support nearby farms and farmer's markets. · Purchase products with the least amount of packaging.

The growing reliance on processed foods may be hurting humans and the planet they call home. Processed foods tend to be loaded with starches and preservatives, increasing consumers' risk of diabetes and being obese. In addition, many prepackaged foods are shipped from faraway processing plants, and vast amounts of fuel must be consumed for products to get from those plants to local grocery stores.

The right dietary choices can not only improve your health but the environment as well. But urbanization and increasingly busy schedules force many people to seek the most convenient, and not necessarily the healthiest, foods.

Probus members given overview of what’s happening at CMH By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - A look at the past, present and future, spanning what Campbellford Memorial Hospital has done, is doing, and will do “to make things better” for its patients, was presented to members of Trent Hills Probus last week. CEO/president Brad Hilker said CMH is working on a master plan to prepare for a future 20 to 40 years from now, taking into account projections of growth in the community and the infrastructure that will be needed for the services that will be offered. “Do we renovate our current facility, do we build a build a new facility?” He pointed out current patient rooms are half the size they should be according to current standards, and 80 per cent of them should be private, to deal with infection control issues. The hospital continues to look at opportunities within the operating room. One of the things it’s been working on is trying to recruit an ear and throat specialist who can perform some surgical procedures

for children. Opened in 1953, and enlarged with additions in 1970 and 1987, “our building is pretty old but we take good care of it,” Hilker said. Two issues will need to be addressed over the next couple of years, the roof over the wing built in 1987, and the retaining wall. CMH serves approximately 30,000 residents in three counties– Northumberland, Peterborough and Hastings–and half of them live outside Northumberland. The emergency department handles approximately 20,000 visits a year. Numerous specialists in areas ranging from urology to orthopedics to gerontology travel to the hospital to see local patients, and new services are being added regularly, with recent additions including dermatology and a sleep lab. In 2013-2014, nearly 1,050 inpatients were provided services, more than 1,800 surgical procedures were performed, and about 1,515 CT exams completed. Hilker said several of the hospital’s accomplishments were made

possible with the support of the community and the efforts of its foundation, which raised $888,300 in 2014. The money was used to purchase priority medical equipment, including a digital mammography machine ($550,000), orthoscopic equipment ($190,000), an echocardiography machine ($140,000) and an anesthetic machine ($140,000). Staff looked at the hospital’s processes and procedures for surgery and made improvements that enabled services to be provided in three days that once were done in five. “That’s an amazing accomplishment, a forty per cent improvement in productivity,” Hilker said. “It means we can offer more services,” so patients can be seen and diagnosed “in a timely manner.” Bringing together the finance departments at the hospital and Community Care Northumberland realized savings of $40,000, which will be reinvested in patient care, Hilker said. “We’ve seen some significant improvements in wait times in our

emergency department,” which can be attributed to a nurse practitioner being on duty six days a week during peak times, he said. Judith Pearce, a CMH board member for nine years, said, “the hospital has always been great but they have made so many positive changes and brought in so many new programs and work so hard there is not a better hospital anywhere. “We are so fortunate to have this hospital in our community,” she said. “It’s marvellous what they do and how committed the staff are … [to doing] the very best they can.” Hilker was thanked for his presentation by Maureen Dikun who worked at the hospital for 40 years as a registered nurse and “loved every day.” With the commitment that has been shown by staff, doctors, volunteers and the community to the hospital, along with “great leadership” that’s been exhibited, “I’d like to think the original builders would be very proud” of what has been done with Brad Hilker, president and CEO of Campbellford Memorial Hospital, prothe hospital, she said. vided members of Trent Hills Probus an in-depth look at what the hospital is doing to provide better care for its patients.

Difficult task ahead for hospital News - Campbellford - After realizing a surplus of $200,440 in 2013-2014, and now facing a small deficit in its current fiscal year, Campbellford Memorial Hospital might have to resort to layoffs to balance its budget for 2015-2016. President and CEO Brad Hilker raised that possibility in his report to the board of directors last week, warning balancing the budget will be “a difficult task with ongoing inflationary pressures” and the need to invest in services “that meet the needs of our communities.” As a result, the hospital will need to “continually review” its staffing levels. Board treasurer Pat Sheridan told directors the hospital will “probably end up” with a deficit of about $20,000 on an $18.6-million operating budget by the time the 2014-2015 fiscal year comes to an end March 31. Hospital GAINs approval Campbellford has been given the goahead to create a Geriatric Assessment and Intervention Network (GAIN) program in Trent Hills. The Peterborough Regional Health Centre has been providing the service locally once a month. It involves a multi-disciplinary team that includes a nurse practitioner, a physiotherapist, an occupational therapist, and a pharmacist, among others, who provide comprehensive assessments and plans of care for frail seniors. “It’s been very beneficial to our patients,” in addressing their complex needs, president/CEO Brad Hilker told the hospital’s board of directors last week. The new program is being made pos-

sible “through the generous support of the Central East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN). Changes to make CMH more senior friendly, and secure Hilker also reported a number of renovations will be carried out in the next two months to make the hospital environment “more senior friendly.” The work, to be

done with one-time funding provided by the LHIN, includes making an accessible washroom and installing better handrails. Security cameras have been installed along with signage “to let everyone know” of their presence. “Policies and procedures are being developed based on protocols at other hospitals,” Hilker stated.

Big crowd, big win for Bulls on Family Day

Sports - Belleville - A big crowd saw a big win for the Belleville Bulls on Family Day at the Yardmen Arena. And now a long losing streak has been erased in favour of a modest winning streak. It’s a good sign as the Bulls head into the final 12 games of the Ontario Hockey League regular season. The Bulls’ offence exploded with a 7 - 5 win over the Peterborough Petes on Saturday night at the Yardmen. And on Family Day, Monday, a near capacity crowd of about 3,200

saw the Bulls pummel the Kitchener Rangers 6 - 2, an impressive feat considering the Rangers are the fifth best team in the Western Conference. Heading into the weekend, the Bulls had lost eight games in a row at home. Now they have a two-game winning streak. They’re still holding onto sixth place in the Eastern Conference playoff standings, with a record of 22-25-3-4. They’ll look to keep the momentum going this week. The Bulls head to Peterborough to take on the Petes (21-27-1-4) Thursday night and then host

the Saginaw Spirit (23-28-2-1) at home at 7:05 p.m. Saturday night. The game is billed as Pink in the Rink night, and players’ jerseys and other items will be auctioned off to support breast cancer initiatives at Belleville General Hospital. The Bulls will also hope to keep the offence coming, as last weekend’s wins marked a refreshing change for a team that struggled with scoring during a depressing stint in January and early February. On Monday, Jordan Subban got the Bulls off to a good start, scoring in the dying sec-

onds of the first period to give the home team a 1 - 0 lead. Then goals by Matt Luff, Stephen Harper, Brett Welychka and David Tomasek made it 5 - 1 for Belleville after two periods. Welychka added a late shorthanded goal in the third period to seal the victory.

On Saturday, Subban scored two goals in the second period to help the Bulls erase a 4 - 1 deficit, en route to a 7 - 5 win. Michael Cramarossa also scored two goals and Luff, Brett Gustavsen and Maurizio Colella added a goal each The wins erased the sting of back-to-back losses to the Ot-

tawa 67’s earlier in the week. On Friday, the Bulls travelled to Ottawa, only to lose 3 - 2. Niki Peti and Tomasek provided Belleville’s goals. On the previous Wednesday, the Bulls lost 5 - 3 to Ottawa at home, despite two goals by Gustavsen and one by Welychka.

Quinte Red Devils Weekly Report cas Hannah scored on a strong play, taking the puck into the Toros zone and putting it past the Toros tender. The battle continued with the Toros scoring two more in under a minute to take the lead for the first time in the game. The Devils would not give up and kept the pressure up until late in the game when they got a five-onthree power play. The Devils took advantage tying the game up when Chris Brydges scored on a slap shot from the point assisted by Uens. The Devils

still had the man advantage for the remainder of the game and were determined to get the win. Uens scored his second of the game on a strong effort for the wrap around to give the Devils the win. The Devils ended their regular season with a 6 - 5 win. Also chipping in with assists on the goals were Oke (2), Brydges, Spencer Cranley, Will Potts, Belleville Bulls forward David Tomasek rushes toward the net during the Bulls game against the Kitchener Rangers on Monday. Tyson Carr and Ben Danford. He scored on the play, to give Belleville a 4 - 1 lead at the time. The Bulls went on to win 6 - 2.

Sports - Major Midget The McInroy Maines Major Midget Red Devils entered OMHA playoffs this week splitting the first two games with the Whitby Wildcats. Thursday, February 12, in Whitby was game one and was clearly not the boys’ best effort losing 8 - 1, with the lone goal from Tye Eaton, assisted by Justynn Steven. Game two, however, was a completely different outcome as the team showed tremendous resolve winning 3 - 2 in overtime. After going down 1 - 0 heading into the third period, the boys knew this game was not over. Robbie Ellis scored at 15:18 of the third to tie the game; assists went to Shaw Boomhower and Christian Antoski. The Red Devils pulled ahead on a breakaway goal from Will Harrison unassisted at 7:24. Whitby tied the game at the 3:21 mark on a goal from Riley Sims which forced overtime. In overtime Christian Antoski broke free in the neutral zone and was able to put the puck past the Whitby goaltender to end the game. The goal was unassisted at 8:30 of overtime. Sean Storr was called upon to make some huge saves and boy did he ever deliver with several highlight reel saves throughout the win. With the series knotted at one game apiece, game three will go February 16 in Whitby with game four February 20 at the RCAF Arena for an 8:30 start. Minor Atom The Bonn Law Quinte Red Devils Minor Atom Team ended the regular season with a win in Clarington this weekend. After two weeks without a game, the Devils were anxious to get back at it in Bowmanville on Sunday. After a fastpaced, entertaining first period, the game remained scoreless after one. The Devils were quick to find the back of the net in the first minute of the second period, when Ben Smith went bar down on a bullet shot. Nick Oke scored to start off the second period on a beauty pass from Cal Uens. Uens scored one of his own less than a minute later to put the Devils up by three goals with ten minutes left in the second. In the third period the Toros came out strong scoring two early goals to tie the game up at three. The Devils responded taking the lead again when Lu-

With one game left in the schedule, against the Tweed Hawks at noon February 22 at Brighton arena, the Braves could place third in the eight-team division. Atom Braves 1 Schomberg Red Wings 1 OT. The Braves battle the Red Wings to a 1 - 1 overtime tie. The series continues at Schomberg on February 20 with the return matchup at 12:20 p.m. February 21 at Brighton arena.

Bantam Braves 8 Campbellford Colts 6. The Braves notch their second win of the series in a game of oddities. If it wasn’t enough watching Brighton forward Benny Scarr-Crosmas tally a double hat trick; the Colts coach pulled his goaltender for the extra skater three times in the final four minutes of regulation time and three times was rewarded with a goal. A fourth attempt resulted in an empty netter to seal the Brighton victory. Then, it was the case of the otherworldly puck. While spectators swear they witnessed the first home-team goal pass right through the net, referees were just as adamant there were no holes discovered in a pre-game check.

Family day picture perfect at O’Hara Mill

By Diane Sherman

Lifestyles - Madoc Township - It was like a scene from an old movie at O’Hara Mill Homestead on Family Day, February 16, as volunteers, wordsmiths, musicians, horses and dogs created a winter festival both outdoors and in to raise funds for the Building Positive Horizons Foundation for children with mental health issues. Chair of the Foundation (BPHF) Chris Budd is also a member of the O’Hara Mill Volunteer Association. Budd, along with numerous volunteers from The Mill and members of BPHF organized the winter outing to share both the beauty of the conservation area and to raise funds for the foundation. James Reid, who started up the Amazing Sunday jam sessions at Amazing Coffee in Madoc a few years ago, returned with a few friends to entertain in the visitor’s centre. He was joined by local talents like Patty Timms from Hastings, music producer and bassist Howard Baer, guitarists Bill Milligan and Rob Crosby. John Foreman, who is best known as the guy who demonstrates hewing logs with a double sided axe, sat in with his banjo. In the replica log cabin, local sled dog veteran, Don McEwen told of his adventures on the Iditarod trail crossing Alaska, in his younger days. Madoc Township poet Deidre Reitav read her award-winning poem The Rooster and other work. Resident musician, wordsmith John Copeland told his stories while visitors sat around the hearth in the cabin listening, and watching out the window as a team of Budd’s horses came and went to and fro into the The Feeney family from Bancroft spent Family Day at O’Hara Mill Homestead in Madoc Township and contributed to funds for the Children’s Mental Health Foundation. Scott, Ellis, Niki and Taryn were just bush with visitors aboard a cutter. Please see “Chatting” on page B2

Chatting by an open fire a highlight at O’Hara Mill Continued from page B1

It was an enchanting scene. At the other end of the homestead, excited children took rides on a dog sled pulled by dogs from Chillipawz kennels of Tweed. Steve Shilleto and his nine dogs were a hit with both young and old, giving rides for the full four hour event. Shilleto said he had been going non-stop since opening at 11 a.m., stopping only long enough to change dogs while the others rested. Visitors took advantage of the sunny day to chat around an open fire and dine on treats from the food booth hosted by O’Hara volunteers. Mason jars were set up at various points on site to receive donations for the foundation. Budd was not yet aware of how much money was raised for BPHF, but it was obvious those who attended enjoyed both the sunshine and winter wonderland at O’Hara Mill. When not pulling children in the sled at O’Hara Mill Homestead on Family Day, Chillipawz dogs of Tweed made great friends with visitors like Holly Blount from Maynooth.

Ancient Egypt on display at Glanmore By Stephen Petrick

Entertainment - Belleville - A different type of history is on display for the next several weeks at Glanmore National Historic Site. The museum, in Belleville’s east hill, is known for paying homage to 1880s life in Canada, as it’s set up to show the lifestyle of the affluent Phillips family who lived in the house after its construction in 1883.

But from now until April 12, visitors to Glanmore can also learn about Ancient Egypt. A touring Royal Ontario Museum exhibit called Egypt: Gift of the Nile is on display at the museum. Regular admission prices ($6 for adults, $5 for seniors, $3.50 for children 5 to 12, free for children under four) still apply while the exhibit is there. Glanmore is located at 257 Bridge Street East.

Guests to the exhibit can learn about hieroglyphs, ancient Egyptian architecture, as well as fashion and religion of the era. Glanmore used to bring in a travelling exhibits yearly, but hasn’t done so for the past few years, said Rona Rustige, the museum’s curator. However, this year, staff ended the hiatus, with hopes that a new exhibit will bring in a few more people.

“We want to reach other audiences,” she said. Part of the exhibit is on the main floor of the building and part is in the basement. Downstairs, visitors can see the replica of a mummy and try on different ancient Egyptian jewellery and clothes, in front of a pyramid-drawing backdrop. The exhibit opened to the public last weekend and on Friday, February 13, Glanmore volunteers got an opening tour, after which they seemed quite excited about sharing the information with

visitors. Rustige says she and her colleagues believe the exhibit will be a hit and they’re preparing for a busy March Break. The exhibit comes at an exciting time for Glanmore, as a new 1880s style bed has been added to the upstairs second bedroom, meaning a room that sat fairly empty for a while is now complete. The museum is also in the process of removing the current carpet with a new carpet that will better match the 1880s style of the

house. Rustige said the carpet project is a big one for the house, as it marks one of the final big check offs on a list of renovations that have taken place over the last 25 years, to get the house to look as authentic as possible. “We’ve been doing a lot of interior restoration the last few years,” she said. “And we’re just about finished.” For more information on Glanmore visit, <http://glanmore. ca>.

lost per day. The OFA is addressing two specific areas relating to farmland preservation: general preservation of all farmland and reviewing protection plans. Weather touches every aspect of agriculture. As the entire planet grapples with climate change, this issue impacts agriculture more than any other industry. The OFAis working with the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs on three key areas: risk management for farmers in extreme weather events, climate change programs and policies affecting farmers, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The OFA is helping bring food literacy back into schools by giving young people knowledge and skills to make lifelong decisions about their food. If we teach children how to choose and prepare healthy foods, we are setting them up for healthier, longer lives. The OFA’s food literacy

goal is a key component of the National Food Strategy to ensure that by age 16 Ontario teenagers can plan and prepare six nutritious meals. The OFA is involved in the Invasive Species Act. Currently there is a giant invasive weed spreading across Ontario, threatening the province’s biodiversity. Phragmites australis is Canada’s most invasive plant. At heights of five metres or more, this plant forms large, dense stands in wetlands, choking out animal habitats and native species. It is becoming an alarming problem for Ontario farmers. The OFA wants to update the Trespass to Property Act of 1980. Intended to protect landowners, it restricts access to rural properties and compensates landowners for property damage. The current legislation falls short when it comes to deterring unwanted visitors. The OFA wants to impose a minimum fine of $500 for trespassing and increase the ceiling on damage awards to $25,000 (currently set at $1,000).

A challenging hike on Lake Titicaca’s Taquile Island

Visitors begin the gruelling climb up to the village. By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - As I’ve mentioned in a previous travel feature, I visited the Uros Islands, Peru’s floating reed islands, while boating on Lake Titicaca. I then continued my exploration of the highest navigable lake in the world by travelling to the more remote and much larger island of Taquile. This particular island, with a population of well over 2,000 people, is located about 45 kilometres offshore from Puno, Peru, and it’s a spectacular destination. It’s located high in the Andes, and its main village is situated atop a steep hill, at an elevation of about 4,000 metres (over 13,000 feet). To reach this village, I had to make a rather challenging climb after arriving to the island by boat. The elevation made the ascent that much more strenuous, and many of the hikers would often pause along the stone path, gasping for

breath, and sipping bottled water, before continuing onward and upward. I passed several stone fences and arches on my slow trek up this hill. It was about a 45-minute trip for me, but some visitors took much longer. However, although I was very pleased that I had successfully made this gruelling climb to the village, I couldn’t help but marvel at some of the locals who made that very same climb while carrying a large bundle of food supplies to be used up there. Several local inhabitants, known as “Taquilenos,” were making the climb with a child strapped to their back, or cases of Coke, or other village supplies. What a challenge. Once I reached the village, by passing through yet another arch, I entered the main square, where I found a large destination sign, pointing out the direction and distance to such places as Brussels, Paris, Moscow and

Madrid. I also found several village houses, and to several small communities. Both islands offer nearby outcropping of rocks, was keeping an eye some ceremonial sites, shops, and restaurants. I overnight homestays, if desired by the visitor, but on him. I then walked out onto the pier and back discovered the quality of the goods sold up here, neither destination has a fancy hotel for tourists. to my boat, and then I began the three-hour return including hand-woven textiles and clothing, was Once I went through the final stone arch on my trip to Puno. excellent, and that it was the men who were the descent and returned to the shoreline, I was greeted What a fascinating day trip on Peru’s Lake knitters (being trained from the age of eight) and by a youngster playing atop a stone fence.

I was also surprised by the quality of the village’s restaurant food, for the meal I received was one of my favourites on my entire Peruvian holiday and included quinoa soup followed by fresh trout.

LIFESTYLES

The Good Earth: Lifestyles - Here’s a story that will illustrate the title, even though it is not a gardening story. For many years in our church there was a group that met on Friday nights and were called–yes GR you are quite a perspicacious lot–The Friday Nighters. They didn’t always talk about church stuff; in fact, I even spoke to them once or twice about gardening. This group carried on for an amazing 60+ years. In the early 1990s another group of church families, those with young children, began meeting on alternate Friday evenings. One of the highlight activities was lip-synching, in which the “singers” would not actually sing the song but make it appear as if they were. Along with some hilarious scenery and skits, the song selections illustrated what our children were listening to. One day, probably in the parking lot after service, some older members were heard wondering where all the young people were. So, the Friday Nighters were invited to the Family Fun Night. They were quite surprised at the large gathering of families. Coincidentally, this occurred at the same time that Avril Lavigne was carving the airwaves with Sk8ter boi (skater boy). The first three sets of lip synchers had all chosen the same song. So, while the older, more established group were now aware of the “other” group, they were not common attendees of the Fri-

Grinding the gardening gears

day Fun Nights. Gardening is experiencing a similar transition, in the sense that there are distinct groups of practitioners and they seldom meet. We, yes you and I, are akin to the first group of Friday folk. We’re the ones who turn to the Home and Garden Television Network (HGTV) in the hope of watching something about gardening. I just checked out their entire TV listing for the upcoming week on their website and guess how many gardening shows were slated to run? In fact, the words plant or garden don’t even appear. Obviously, television gardening shows don’t bring in the viewers in sufficient numbers to generate an acceptable revenue stream from advertisers. That’s not a knock against the network; it’s more a realisation of how times have changed. Do you remember Dylan’s, The Times They Are A-Changing? Well, forget it because that time was 1964. The second group, you can call them Y2kers, Millennials or even Nexters, are engaged in building suburbia, aka Muskeg Meadows Subdivision. Apartments, parents’ basements and couch surfing are giving way to the ideal home (check out Audrey’s dream home from Little Shop of Horrors) and these folk are approaching gardening from the perspective of exterior decor. Have you noticed how the large garden shows, e.g.

Canada Blooms, have changed over the years? Similar to the HGTV folks, the exhibitors at Blooms are business people who provide what their customers are willing to purchase. They do not create gardening trends; they respond to them, and the clever ones do so in a manner that is most attractive to their primary purchaser. GR, we’re not them. Most of us have established gardens and we have garden routines. Over the years we have developed our methodologies and collected the tools to support those systems. We’re not big-time spenders anymore. At most, we might replace a hedge, plant a memorial tree, or buy some packets of vegetable seeds–and buy a bus ticket to Blooms. We go to book stores and are dissatisfied with the selection, we press the buttons on the remote and can’t find anything worthwhile to watch, we go to hort society meetings and talk about the new varieties and old times. (Actually we don’t really have to talk about the old times, because those are our times and we’re comfortable there.) If those last sentences define you, GR, it is time to shift gears. All of the above is nothing more than rationalisation and an excuse to live in yesterday’s time. So what to do? By all means, continue with the traditions

and encourage young folk to join your garden clubs–being mindful that they may have slightly differing perspectives–because gardening is and always will be gardening. That said, switch gears to overdrive and take the ramp to the high-speed Internet highway. For starters, search out these two sites: Doug Green’s Garden and Garden Rant. If you’re sloughing off this idea, it’s time to readjust your information paradigm. If you don’t, you’ll be left sitting in a dusty old room, reading dusty old books and thinking dusty old thoughts.

Momentum building for Hockeyville bid By John Campbell

Sports - Campbellford - The campaign to have Campbellford chosen Kraft Hockeyville for 2015 is going much better than expected, says its organizer. It’s developed “a lot more momentum than I ever imagined, which is great,” said Amy-Jo Doherty. She has “a good feeling” that Campbellford will be one of the top ten communities named March 14 when the competition for $100,000 in arena upgrades and the title of Kraft Hockeyville enters the voting phase. The two entries to receive the most votes will go head to head in a second round of voting beginning March 28 and ending March 30. Nominations closed February with

the Campbellford-Seymour Community Centre receiving 30 of the 1,037 nominations submitted. Only two other communities across Canada received more, Doherty said Support for the local campaign continues to build, with the number of online posts and Twitter messages backing Campbellford’s bid having reached almost 1,000, as of February 13. “It’s unbelievable,” Doherty said. To keep the momentum going, a fun contest will be held this Saturday at the arena during an Atom/Peewee tournament in which the eight teams taking part will be challenged to see what they can build out of boxes of Kraft Dinner and JELL-O in 20 minutes.

Their efforts will be posted on Facebook and the donated goods will be turned over to the Fare Share Food Bank the following week. Sharpe’s Market will have a Kraft Hockeyville display in its store where people can take pictures as well to post on Facebook (Campbellford4KraftHockeyville), Twitter and Instagram. There’s also a video on YouTube, featuring local musician Ken Tizzard’s song, This Town of Mine, released three years ago. It contains photos people have submitted to the Campbellford committee’s Facebook page. Doherty is encouraging people to use hashtag, #KHV_ice4cford, to continue to beat the drum for the town’s bid, and to leave “comments about why we should be Hockeyville” on the competition’s nomination page, <www.khv2015.ca/en>. The grand prize includes hosting an

NHL pre-season game in addition to being named Kraft Hockeyville and receiving $100,000 for arena upgrades. The community that finishes second will receive $100,000 for upgrades as well, while the remaining eight prize winners will be given $25,000 apiece. Plans are being made for “a massive community event” at the arena March 14. Doherty said a big screen will show live the announcement of the top ten communities, which will take place during the first intermission of Hockey Night in Canada. The free event will run from 6 to 8 p.m., to be followed by a dance hosted by the Campbellford Rebels at 9 p.m. “This is about bringing our community together,” said Doherty, who’s “amazed” by the support residents and users of the arena have shown to date, along with people living as far away as Texas and Europe sharing the town’s story. “It’s exciting,” she said.

Coyote researcher attracts capacity crowd

News - Ivanhoe - Coyotes can attract a lot of attention and organizers of this year’s Winter Speaker Series can attest to that after a standing-room-only crowd filled the Huntingdon Veterans Hall to hear a presentation by PhD candidate Tyler Wheeldon last week. Wheeldon has spent three years conducting research in Prince Edward County, studying coyote behaviour, morphology, diet, DNA and populations to explain why the animals are so adaptable, persistent and widespread. Using live trapping methods to affix radio collars to nearly 150 animals, as well as using carcass collection, stomach content analysis and scat sampling, hundreds of individual animals were studied as part of his doctoral work. That research, Wheeldon says, has now resulted in some preliminary findings but further studies are needed before any conclusions can be reached. There were several reasons for selecting Prince Edward County as the location for the study, he explains, but convenience and timing, the obvious presence of the animals, concerns of livestock predation and a range of available food sources were

among the considerations. The animals are pervasive, he notes, but data collected in a limited area will reflect general patterns in other locations. Coyotes studied were primarily younger animals, he says, with the vast majority being four years old or less. However, two animals encountered in the course of the work were known to be 12 and 13, although Wheeldon admitted finding animals that old came as a surprise to researchers. Studies revealed that 85 per cent of coyote deaths are caused by humans with shooting accounting for the cause of 55 per cent. About 13 per cent of the dead animals studied were killed by vehicles with a similar number killed in traps. About nine per cent died from natural causes, he says, including illness and starvation. But despite sometimes intensive harvesting by humans, coyote populations tend to remain stable, he says. And part of that comes from their adaptability. Where diet is concerned, Wheeldon explains, coyotes are opportunists and will eat whatever is readily available. Describing them as “not an overly large animal,� those studied in Prince Edward County were generally less than 20 kilograms and after a “very complicated�

genetic analysis were determined to have similar combinations of coyote, eastern wolf and dog genes. One animal carcass recovered did weigh in at over 50 pounds (23 kilograms), Wheeldon says, but it also contained six pounds (2.7 kilograms) of undigested chicken. That particular coyote, he suggests, was probably quite sluggish when it was hit and killed by a vehicle in front of a chicken farm. Depending on the time of year, Wheeldon says diets varied but included elements of fruit and vegetables, natural prey, livestock, dead stock, road kill and household garbage. Natural prey, in summer and fall accounting for about 40 per cent of diet, was made up primarily of small rodents, including beavers, with livestock spiking at that time of year to about 30 per cent. Apples were also a common fall supplement, he says, noting, “we found apple seeds in a lot of the scat.� Wheeldon also discussed the animals’ social behaviour and offered advice on how not to attract these dietary opportunists to a regular food source. Hastings Stewardship Council Co-ordinator Matt Caruana says the series has been very well attended this year and continues with an upcoming visit from Mike

Burrell, Ontario Important Bird Areas Co-ordinator Janet Foster (March 19) and geologist Pam Sangfor Bird Studies Canada, on March 5 at 7 p.m. ster (April 2) who will be the final presenter in the Future speakers include filmmakers John and series. Admission is $5 per person.

We wish to send our most sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to Lindsay Findlay’s final tribute, especially to Andre and the staff at Pilon Family Funeral Home for their professionalism and support during our shock and grief. Our gratitude goes out to Derek Crosby of D&J Trucking and Clint & Tiffany Duff at the Antrim Truck Stop for organizing and gathering the most memorable convoy tribute Arnprior has ever seen. And our gratitude goes to John Irish, David Virgin and all the drivers who were a part of that. Evan & Debbi Gray, Ron & Trish Headrick and friends who supplied the special touch with the plaid lumberjack coats, thank you so much. And of course our warmest thanks to our twelve pallbearers. Also, we extend our thanks to John & Fawn Bott, who supplied the catering, at the funeral home and Chris & Trish Sclievert, Gordie Schlievert, Brian & Sharlene Lesway, and everyone else who supplied the facilities and brought food and memories and enjoyed our gathering afterwards at the Parish Hall. And a special thank you to everyone that visited and offered condolences, sent flowers and made donations.Lindsay will be so fondly remembered by all who knew him for his great stories and jokes, quick wit and mischievous grin. He is not gone because he is definitely not forgotten. Thanks to all who made our final days with him so special. The Findlay Family CLR586445
