Brighton receives three provincial grants
By Ray Yurkowski
News – Brighton – It’s been a lucrative few weeks for the municipality with more than $153,000 coming in from provincial coffers. First up was the news that Applefest received a $35,530 Celebrate Ontario grant in support of enhancements being planned for the 40th anniversary of the local festival. The primary goal is to build on the success experienced in previous years and increase attendance to create economic spin-off. The Celebrate Ontario cash will go toward paying tribute to the harvest season, highlight traditional harvest activities and local foods of the region. The anniversary event will include fireworks, outdoor entertainment, enhanced programming at the Children’s Village and a twoday car show featuring ‘Counting Cars’ personalities Rockin’ Roli Please see “Civic” on page 3 and Horny Mike.
“We now look forward to rolling up our sleeves and getting to work on plans to make the 40th anniversary a truly memorable one for residents and visitors,” said Applefest chairperson Laurie Caouette. Applefest begins this year on September 25, with a full weekend of family activities. Next, the Ontario Trillium Foundation announced it will invest $92,600 to build a picnic shelter adjacent to the Codrington Community Centre, which will facilitate the expansion of programming and events. The Codrington Community Association (CCA) plans to erect an open-sided 40 by 60-foot picnic and activity shelter that includes an additional 20 feet for enclosed storage. “It is envisioned this space will be utilized for concerts, outdoor meals, and more activities for all ages,” says CCA program coordina-
tor Liana Palmer, in a press release. “The possibility of a Farmer’s Market is a new opportunity we intend to explore. This is a gap recognized in Brighton’s Community Development Plan and this facility could easily lend itself to a seasonal market if a demand exists.” “The Codrington Community Association is extremely appreciative of the support being received by the Ontario Trillium Foundation,” added CCA executive director Cathy McCann. “I had a positive feeling about this project after meeting with Trillium representatives who toured our Codrington facility. Our enthusiasm, positive track record, and supportive relationship with the municipality have helped turn this idea into a success story for Codrington.” The project will get underway this spring with completion slated for late summer.

News – Brighton – The municipal mayoral race heated up on Monday as Deputy Mayor Mike Vandertoorn filed nomination papers to run against Mayor Mark Walas. Vandertoorn, who has served on council since 1997, said, if elected, he is offering a four-year guarantee to the residents of Brighton. “The foundation of my commitment is based on trust, transparency, a positive attitude, respect, experience and communication,” he said. “Communication, like transparency, spells openness and I have a desire to listen carefully, a desire to let our citizens know where I stand and a desire and willingness to take their message back to council.” “I believe I have the experience needed after working on council for the past 16-and-a-half years,” he added. “I’ve had the opportunity to work with many great community leaders and politicians who have helped me build a solid foundation in public service. There have been countless positive experiences and I’ve learned a lot.” With a host of programs currently on the council table, including a branding strategy, library expansion, the Community Development Plan, service delivery review and the expansion

Terry Fox Drive on track to be completed this summer
By Ray Yurkowski
News – Brighton – The reconstruction of Terry Fox Drive is on track for completion this summer but it’s up to Mother Nature when work can resume. The underground installation of the storm sewer on
Terry Fox Drive was completed on March 6 and the next stage of the project is reconstruction at the intersections of Elizabeth Street, at the south, and Dundas Street, at the north. In order to proceed with the work, contractors are waiting until
the road base and underlying ground are free from frost, expected by late April or early May. “Currently, as a result of an unusually harsh winter, the existing underground utilities under the intersections are embedded in frozen material and would suffer damage if the excavation for storm sewers progressed,” said public
works director Andrzej Drzewiecki, in a report to municipal council last week. “This part of the project is expected to be completed in May.” “Then, the work will be interrupted again,” he explained. “The southbound lane of Terry Fox Drive will remain closed to traffic.” At the beginning of July, to coincide
with the end of the school year, workers will excavate the northbound lane, replace the granular base and install the base asphalt. “Before the end of the school vacation, the top asphalt will be placed and, in the meantime, the concrete work
– sidewalk and curbs (on one side of the street) – will be done,” said Drzewiecki. “Initially, we planned on the top asphalt being placed next year but it appears the whole project will be completed before the beginning of the school year in September.”
Stormwater master plan approved Civic Awards presented to residents
for further development of stormwater collection systems,” public works director Andrzej Drzewiecki told council. “We would have a good database we would be able to use when planning the expansion and upgrades to the existing network. The plan would be developed considering future areas of development. Of five proposals, the Aquafor bid ($29,950) wasn’t the lowest. One, from Greer Galloway, was more than $4,000 cheaper but another came in at almost $40,000 more. “Was there something specific missing from the Greer Galloway proposal?” asked Mayor Mark Walas. “The important criteria to evaluate the submittals were experience in similar projects, completeness of proposal and experience of staff,” said Drzewiecki. “We found that Aquafor really excelled. They also demonstrated a full understanding of our requirements.” Funding for the project will come from the 2013 operating budget.
Councillor John Martinello wondered how this study would be any different “than one done by Genivar, five or six years ago.” “How does this differ from that?” he asked. “The scope of the work is wider,” said Drzewiecki. “It includes proposed developments and allows for better planning. Also we’ll have a complete set of data on the existing infrastructure.”

News – Brighton – A 15-year-old Quinte West youth has been charged with assault as a result of a video that was posted on Instagram. Northumberland OPP said the video was of an incident involving a Brighton-area youth who suffered minor injuries. “The OPP is very concerned about the impact of cyber bullying and other online criminal acts and supports a new Canadian Centre for Child Protection (CCCP) initiative to enhance youth safety,” police said in a news release. The centre in conjunction with the federal government has launched an online resource called Need Help Now (www.NeedHelpNow.ca) designed to help Canadian youth – “especially in this niche age demographic to manage the negative consequences that can occur when sexual images are created and distributed online and reduce further harm.” Teens are given practical steps to regain control over the situation, as well as helpful information on how to get support from a safe adult, and develop strategies for managing harassment, such as bullying, whether online or offline.

Dear Editor, Wonder why young people can’t find work? Auto workers make $32 an hour in Ontario, $14.50 in Mississippi, $7 in Mexico and 70 cents in China. Each country employs the same technology, the same machinery and has roughly the same cost of capital. Guess where new auto investment is going? Next year, Mexico is set to sell more autos to the U.S. than Ontario. Are we headed for Australia’s fate here? Consider that almost every job, whether it be doctor, teacher, police or tar sands worker, can be replaced by foreign contract workers for one tenth what Canadians make and do the job just as well. We’ve already sacrificed the manufacturing sector. Why stop there? Thanks to automation and an abundance of willing skilled cheap foreign labour, the Canadian labour force is neither competitive nor needed. I worked for Canadian Tire in the 1960s where virtually item in the store was made in Canada. Jobs were there for the having. So what happened? With the rise of the Internet, the free movement of capital, and free trade agreements, stateless international corporations have found a way to produce goods in very poor low wage countries with little or no labour or environmental regulations. They then sell their goods to the wealthy countries and pocket the spread. Predictably, jobs
have left Canada, the U.S., Japan and Europe and headed to the coal burning Chinas of the world. Contrary to what you read in the media, none of this is good or efficient or rational. This is the twisted logic of globalism. If we want a job, we must lower our living standards. Our policy makers response… ”Yes we are losing our manufacturing jobs. But don’t worry, our plan is to replace these jobs with new hi-tech ones.” The trouble with this line of thinking is, so does the rest of the modern world. And they are just as skilled and determined as we are, will often work for less and may be bilingual to boot. We will be doing well to keep the few hi-tech jobs we now have e.g. Blackberry. This is not a plan, this is wishful thinking! But there is more to the shrinking Canadian economy story. In the past decade, crude oil prices have tripled due to the increasing difficulty of finding new , affordable oil reserves. More money spent on energy is less available for everything else. Moreover credit is no longer the free lunch it was in the past. Credit became freely available in the 1960s such that today we are maxed out. On average every Canadian household has already spent nearly two years of future income. High debt levels can be relatively painless but only in a fast growing economy which we no longer have. Add all this up and I see a perfect
storm coming. In my view, an $80 a ton carbon tax, a return to the win/ win trade agreements of the 1960s like the Auto Pact (which frees us from blackmailing by the multinationals), French style runoff elections, a 35 hour work week and a ban on money creation by private banks; these measures would go a long way towards slowing our Greek-like descent to joblessness, anger and chaos. But that would be dreaming. Right now Canadians are in the dazed and confused stage. We know something is wrong but aren’t exactly sure what, but aren’t hurting enough to do something about it…a case of the boiling frog? The mainstream media is not helping matters. After all, big oil and the multi-nationals pay for most of the ads. And government can’t see beyond the next election. All it can do is apply more patches. We don’t do five-year plans. We are handing our kids a country that is set to fail. High youth joblessness is the canary in the coalmine. It is not an act of God. We did this to ourselves. There is no enemy here. Do we take the Alberta path and leave the pantry bare? Or do we take the Norway path and leave something for the grandchildren? Canada is ours to save but also ours to lose. Sincerely, Norm Braden, Madoc

Dear Editor, I’m not sure how many people here in the Quinte area are aware of the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) which is currently being negotiated without any input from Canadian citizens. I am concerned especially since I have not heard our local MP Daryl Kramp speak out against this matter to protect his constituents from Internet censorship. This issue was brought to my attention by OpenMedia.org/ Censorship where they have a petition called “Say No to Internet Censorship” which has over 125,000 signatures to date. I encourage all citizens to learn more about TPP Internet Censorship before it’s too late. Experts point out that the TPP, would force Internet Service
Providers (ISPs) to become Internet police and monitor our Internet use, censor website content and remove entire websites from our view. It would criminalize our everyday use of the Internet and hinder our ability to access information. As a concerned citizen, I am speaking out for a free and open Internet. The TPP also would limit accessibility for visually and hearing impaired citizens as it would criminalize them for circumventing digital locks on any digital materials they have purchased. This means they would be unable to convert them to braille, audio or other accessible formats used by people with other disabilities. I believe that the Internet should be open and accessible to all Canadian citizens.
The TPP is another US-backed deal that will undermine Canada’s national rules. When our rules were finalized in 2011, they were considered a victory for both creators and citizens - but the TPP could reverse the progress made by our elected decision-makers. The TPP includes many US-backed provisions that would benefit outdated media conglomerates at the expense of our own wellbalanced copyright laws. Canada needs to stand up for a free and open Internet. I encourage each and every Canadian to learn more about the TPP at OpenMedia.org/ Censorship. Sherry-Anne Ackles, Belleville
OPINION
Seymour Hersh strikes again
Editorial - Why would anyone believe Seymour Hersh? True, he’s the Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter who broke the story of the massacre committed by US Army troops at My Lai in 1968 during the Vietnam War, and revealed the torture and sexual humiliation of Iraqi prisoners by US military police at Abu Ghraib prison in 2004. But he’s Gwynne Dyer getting old (77), and he’s a freelancer, and he won’t even disclose the name of his key informant. Whereas the US government has hundreds of thousands of people working for it just gathering and analysing intelligence, and the American media are famed worldwide for their brave defence of the truth no matter what the cost. Besides, has the US government ever lied to you in the past? So we obviously should not give much credence to Hersh’s most recent story. It alleges that the poison gas attack in Damascus last August that killed more than a thousand people, and almost triggered a massive US air attack on Syria, was not really carried out by Bashar al-Assad’s tyrannical regime (which the US wants to overthrow) It was, Hersh says, a false-flag operation carried out by the rebel Al-Nusra Front with the purpose of triggering an American attack on Assad. If you can believe that, you would probably also believe his allegation that it was the Turkish government, a US ally and NATO member, that gave the jihadi extremists of al-Nusra the chemicals to make sarin (nerve gas) and the training to carry out the mass attack in Damascus. Hersh even says that it was General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, who told President Barack Obama just days before the American strikes on Syria were due to start that the evidence was not strong enough to justify an American attack on the Syrian regime. The rest of the story we already know. Obama post-
By Terry Bush
poned the attack by deciding, quite suddenly, that he had to get Congressional support for it. Then he cancelled it entirely once the Russians gave him the facesaving alternative of getting Assad to hand over all of his chemical weapons for destruction. There is no chance of an American attack on Syria now. But could Hersh’s back-story be true? By last August it was clear that Assad’s regime would eventually win the civil war unless there was some radical change in the situation (like an American bombing campaign against it). So Assad’s survival depended on not giving the United States any reason to attack him. Barack Obama had already said that any use of poison gas by the Syrian regime would cross a “red line” and trigger an American attack. In mid-August there were United Nations inspectors in Damascus to look into two much smaller attacks earlier in 2013 that seemed to involve poison gas. And we are asked to believe that at that precise moment Assad thought it would be a neat idea to kill one or two thousand innocent civilians in the city with poison gas. So who did it? The obvious question to ask was: Who stands to benefit from this attack? The answer was certainly not Assad. He would not have done this unless he was stupid, and being wicked does not make you stupid. Whereas the rebels had every reason to do it, in order to suck American firepower in on their side. Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey’s prime minister for the past 11 years, has backed the Islamist rebels in the Syrian civil war from the start, and he will be in deep trouble if they lose. They will lose, unless either Turkey or the United States comes to their aid militarily. Erdogan would obviously rather have the US Air force do it rather than his own armed forces. So he had a good motive for giving the rebels the poison gas. Hersh says that he has been told by a former senior official in the US Defense Intelligence Agency that that is what happened. You can read the details on the website of the London Review of Books. And yes, he’s old, but that just means he has been getting it right about a lot of different things for a long time.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Trade agreement is not in our interests
Dear Editor Despite strong opposition in Canada, Australia and New Zealand, this secretive agreement is forging ahead, behind closed doors, a trademark of this Conservative government. Canada was allowed to join these negotiations in October 2012. Behind its deceptive ‘Trade Agreement’ title it seems that only two of TPPA’s 20 chapters actually have anything to do with trade. From the limited facts that have emerged about this secretive pact, it appears that it will grant new privileges to already powerful US and multinational corporations. Protecting US intellectual property rights and enforcing more control of the Internet are top agenda items. The pact apparently focuses on ensuring enforceable corporate rights, while increasing constraints on governments. It will even limit the way governments can spend their own tax dollars! From the scant information presently available, it would seem that adoption of the TPPA would mean a future of extensions to high priced drug patent monopolies and increased corporate rights to attack government drug pricing plans. Guess what that will do to our health care system? Proposed safeguards for sending jobs off-shore or bringing in foreign labour and added corporate con-

trol over our natural resources, already in jeopardy because of Bill C-38’s destruction of government and environmental influence over resource extraction, are other TPPA articles that are not in Canada’s interests. If fully implemented, the TPPA will apparently reduce the ability of governments to warn their citizens of the dangers of cigarette smoking. These TPPA negotiations are yet another disturbing example of the still growing pattern of secretive, unaccountable and undemocratic practices utilized by the Harper Conservatives. Their actions are completely opposite to the transparent government they promised prior to election. This pattern clearly evidences their arrogance and contempt for Canadians and endangers our democracy. Not only can they not be trusted, remember this at election time folks, but they are downright dangerous and put our future existence at risk. This is another issue that we should bring strongly to the attention of our sitting member, Rick Norlock and ask him to allay our fears. But, perhaps he has no information either, which could be why he fills his taxpayer-financed circulars with apple pie issues, photo ops and thinly disguised party propaganda. Iain Henderson, Brighton

Editorial – On Saturday, Harper’s main attack dog John Baird was at it again, threatening more sanctions against Russia. It’s not surprising in the least that the Harper government is once again echoing the US party line. Most would be surprised if they didn’t. At one point in time, our policies weren’t always in lockstep. We sided with the Americans when it made sense to do so and when it didn’t, Canadians had their own point of view. Those days are apparently long gone. Israel, Syria, the Palestinians, Libya, Iran, Afghanistan, Egypt, you couldn’t slip a piece of paper between their foreign policy and what passes for ours. If one harkens back to the days of Ronald Reagan, Mikhail Gorbachev and the breakup of the Soviet Union, one of the deals supposedly in place was, if Gorbachev allowed the reunification of Germany, he was promised that NATO wouldn’t expand into the former states of the Soviet Union. Gorbachev genuinely seemed like a pretty good guy compared to other Soviet/Russian leaders past and present but he was perhaps a little too trusting. That particular agreement wasn’t worth the paper it wasn’t written on and the US began quickly chipping away at the former Soviet satellites, expanding NATO closer and closer to the borders of Russia. They were, in effect, building a wall around the country. Russia was not pleased. As its power waned and NATO continued to encroach on its territory, Russia was even more displeased with the shenanigans backed by the US and European Union. So when neocon Victoria Nuland recently admitted to some of the US’s destabilizing efforts in an intercepted phone call and also admitted that the US had spent $5 billion trying to get the right kind of government in Ukraine, right being one that would kowtow to Washington, Russia was incensed. When the west’s extreme right wing Nazi collaborators overthrew the Ukrainian government, Russia had enough. It had been propping up Ukraine for years with loans and cheap natural gas and it wasn’t about to lose a major naval port in the Crimea it had already leased. Considering the Crimea was part of Russia until Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev gave it away in the 1950s, Russia wasn’t about to sit idly by when 60 per cent of Crimea’s population considered themselves Russian. So after what may or may not have been an actual referendum, Crimea was annexed and Putin became the devil incarnate in the western world, a title more than a few Russians had already bestowed upon him. Western nations were incensed that he would do such a thing, the same western nations who knew darn well what the US was up to trying to unseat a Russia-leaning, corrupt, but democratically elected government in Ukraine. One might wonder where the same fury was during the mass protests in the country of Bahrain just a couple of years ago. That country is ruled by a monarchy, read dictatorship, and is fully backed by

the west considering it’s home to the US Navy’s 5th fleet. When the majority Shia protesters complained about their lack of representation in the minority Sunni kingdom, the Saudis came in to help put down the demonstrations. Hundreds were killed and thousands tortured but while western nations tsk, tsked, the word sanctions was never uttered. After all, this country possessed a port vital to US interests ... the same as Crimea does for the Russians. The US blamed the unrest on the usual scapegoat, Iran. While, Canada, the US and Britain loudly boo Putin, many in Europe are much more pragmatic. While they don’t care for Putin, a dictator in his own right, they also realize that poking the bear isn’t in their best interests. While trade with Russia may be somewhat insignificant in North America, except for the Russian vodka some would like pulled off the shelves, the same can’t be said for much of Eastern Europe that depends on Russian natural gas. Russia also controls many of the supply routes the US depends on to get goods to its troops in Afghanistan. If push comes to shove, Russia will not be swayed from what it thinks is right, no more than the US would be. While Russia and the west do share some values, one should not be tempted to think they’re the same people. A quick look at Russian history might lead a person to believe that Russians are a very nationalistic people who would not be averse to enduring some hardship in the face of western pressure. The more the west pushes, the more the Russians will consider their other alliances, in particular the BRICS countries, which include Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa with states such as Iran sitting on the sidelines hoping for membership. Those countries have already expressed concern over Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop’s comment that Putin should be barred from attending the G20 Summit in November. Recent revelations that China and Russia are considering dumping the US dollar as the world reserve currency should be cause for concern throughout the western world especially if other BRICS nations follow suit. That would affect us all. Rumours that China will re-open the old Silk Road as a trading route between China and Germany, the EU’s economic engine, should also give one pause. Considering that China with its major US debt holdings could pull the rug out from under the US at any given time, maybe the US should take a minute and think before constantly threatening the rest of the world. Empires don’t last forever and the US’s power is definitely waning. The public may not like Putin but they don’t want another war especially when both countries have nukes. As for Canada, one would hope our country would continue to speak out for human rights around the world. And if our allies need a good tongue lashing from time to time, they should be called to task as well. Otherwise we look like hypocrites on the world stage.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Harper’s message is “Say goodbye to your CBC” Dear Editor, Canada’s evangelical/Reform Conservative Party led by Stephen Harper spends millions of our tax dollars on Action Canada ads telling us how great they are at creating jobs. Almost $15 million of our tax dollars went to this thinly disguised propaganda last year alone. Last week, in sharp contrast to their claims of job creation, Conservatives killed another 657 jobs at CBC. What we are witnessing is the clas-
sic “Death by 1,000 cuts” and Harper is about half way through his program to silence the CBC because he cannot control the message CBC delivers per their mandate as our independent National Broadcaster. CBC President Hubert Lacroix delivered the latest bad news in a well-scripted message which lamented the loss of 657 creative, highly skilled reporters, program directors, producers and writers. In Harper’s world it appears only
jobs in the oil sands and related extraction industries are worth supporting. Forget music, art and culture. Just help the Chinese and other hungry world powers suck all of the oil out of Canada’s tar sands as fast as they can. Who gave Hubert Lacroix his job as President of CBC? None other than Stephen Harper. So, whose message is Lacroix delivering? Canadians know all scripts for public consumption come from the Prime Minister’s Of-

fice. Lacroix’s talking points attempted to make it look like economic forces beyond CBC’s control are necessitating these latest cuts. Nothing could be further from the truth. Reality is that in 2009 Harper’s cuts to CBC funding saw 800 jobs lost. Again in the 2012 budget CBC’s funding was decreased by another $115 million, leading to the loss of 650 jobs. In the 2011 federal election Harper promised Canadians the CBC would be fully funded and suggested Conservatives would increase support for our National Broadcaster. He has done exactly the opposite of what he promised Canadians. Conservatives have forced CBC’s Radio 2 to start running ads. Money for new
programs has been severely restricted. The only option left is to repeat programs over and over again to fill airtime. Such moves naturally decrease listenership. It is a death spiral which the Conservatives plan to complete over the next few years. All good dictators know they need to control the message the people are allowed to hear. Harper cannot accomplish this while CBC is still broadcasting so these methodical, incremental steps to cripple CBC will continue as long as Harper has a majority government handed to him by only 39 per cent of the population of Canada. We are witnessing the destruction of a national institution, which ties this country together like the railway used to unite

Do Tasers contribute to increased use of force? Dear Editor,
Police services across the country suggest that a Taser is the next level of protection for their officers while providing a safer solution for the individuals/perpetrators that have attracted their attention. The use of this type of force is suggested to be the only option in preventing harm however this type of force points to a great problem, the increased militarization of our Canadian police forces as a whole. In a further examination of the usefulness and necessity of Tasers it is clear that Tasers may contribute to the increased use of force. Illustrating this point is as simple as inserting common sense, a gun would not be drawn during a dispute that seemed to be taking an expected progression to conclusion, where in if a “less lethal option was available” the situation could be concluded more rapidly the Taser may be employed. Many have heard of or even seen (YouTube) the shooting of the young man on the bus in Toronto, Please see “Do Tasers” on page 10

Weather permitting, the work will commence on Monday, April 21, 2014 and continue for approximately three (3) days. The Contractor will maintain two (2) lanes open for traffic on Elizabeth Street and temporary traffic lights will be installed at the intersection.

The police tase the man and as a result he goes into cardiac arrest and dies. The dynamics of this situation have just taken a drastic turn. What could have be been solved through discussion and calm minds has now turned lethal. The level of safety a person expects from their police department has been comprised. In the same scenario without a taser, police would work with the farmer and talk him through his frustration while maintaining the safety of his wife. The lack of force contributes to the safe and successful de-escalation of a simple situation. A certain level of autonomy has been restored as the community would see this situation as a success. The police are seen as professional, the farmer is given due punishment, his wife is safe, and the communities respect and confidence in their police force remains. The fact that the police force has two tasers was a surprise to me. I am of the opinion that the police should have at their disposal the tools they need to protect themselves and the taxpayer based on data for the area. I would like to know how many times an officer had to unholster a weapon? How much does a Taser cost, including maintenance? Could this money not be spent on deescalation training.

Frankford fire at Public Works yard leads to loss of equipment By Kate Everson
News – Quinte West – Director of Public Works Chris Angelo said the equipment has taken a beating this year, first from the extreme winter and next from a fire at Frankford Public Works yard. Jim Harrison commented, “The sidewalk plow has had to work with intense storms. I’d have fallen apart.” Jim Alyea noted that the highway is falling apart at Highway 2 and 40. Angelo said they are looking at patching it, since it is slated for future development turning lanes. “We have to extend services first, then fix it,” Angelo said. “It’s all about timing.” He said the Official Plan is not designating that area for services. Harrison said, “That’s where the growth is going to go.” He added that he is glad Public Works is working in Frankford as there is a push for development. “Did we burn things out of there so there is more space?” he asked. Angelo said the recent fire cost them six snow plows, two single axles, four tandem trucks and a back hoe. They are replacing one tandem with a tri-axle. They lost a 1984 sidewalk machine Bombardier and a Bobcat sweeper. They have a sweeper on rental now for spring use. There was $150-$200,000 worth of miscellaneous equipment such as chain saws, harnesses and hard hats. Angelo said the insurance will replace everything at full value with a deductible of $10,000. “The fire even melted the front headlights in the parking lot,“ he said. “The vehicles have all been sent for appraisal.” Angelo said the building itself will cost $1 million to replace or they can upgrade it. It was built in 1995 and will need to meet updated codes to replace. They can also accept a cash value plus depreciation. “If we decide to build on the site within two years we will get 100 per cent of the value,” he said. Another option is using the money for a storage shed. Jim Alyea commented that after the fire at his farm one tractor had a battery insulator shut-off so there is no feedback. He asked if that could be done for Public Works. Angelo said they will take recom-
mendations from the fire marshall to put it on all the trucks. He added that no cause has been determined for the fire. “They may never know,” he said. Wayne Scaletta said they could have a master shut-off on all the vehicle batteries.
Chuck Naphan asked how the fire would impede operational capability. Angelo said he hopes winter is done. The city has had offers from other municipalities and they are making do. Staff is being transferred to other yards. They still need to find an alternate location for parks staff.
To lease or rent a facility is an option but there is not a lot of buildings with vacant space for 20 staff. “Spring is on its way,” he said. “We need to get the grass cut and clean the roadsides.” Jim Harrison commented that the amount of road salt use has
been increased this year and the Ministry of the Environment is concerned with contaminants in spring run-off. Angelo said they are targeting the protection of the Bay of Quinte and the Trent River as well as following Source Water Protection guidelines.

Local student innovators making a difference By Ray Yurkowski
News - Brighton – Students from St. Mary’s Catholic Elementary School (Campbellford) drew top marks last week during the final round of the Caring for Our Watersheds contest, sponsored by Agrium Advanced Technologies. Lucy Clitherow and Cassidy Tizzard took first prize for “Operation Watershed Awareness,� a plan to educate youth with a self-written and illustrated storybook about the local watershed. Kyle Carson, Kamyrn Pollock and Kirsten Doyle placed second with “A New Way to Save Water� a community awareness campaign about the benefits of using rain barrels to conserve water. Grades Seven, Eight and Nine students were asked, “What can you do to improve your watershed?� In all 76 proposals were submitted by a total of 155 students in the Lower Trent watershed region. After identifying an environmental concern, researching, and
coming up with a realistic solution, the six finalists gave their presentations to a panel of judges and all received cash awards. As well as $4,500 in prizes awarded to the presenters, their schools will receive a matching amount. An additional $10,000 in funding is also available to help the students implement their ideas. As well as St. Mary’s this year’s finalists were from East Northumberland Secondary School (ENSS) along with Brighton and Murray Centennial Public Schools In third place was Cachell Cox of Brighton Public School for her idea to launch an intensive non-biased campaign about the difference between disposable and cloth diapers and the impact on our health, economy and environment. In fourth was Chantal Ouellet of Murray Centennial Public School with a plan to organize a red maple seedling fundraiser to buy a water bottle refilling station for her school. Ouellet also
summed up the spirit of the entire competition as she ended her presentation. “It’s not I want to make a difference,� she said. “I am going to make a difference.� Fifth place went to Murray Centennial student Hannah McCrory, who proposes getting the City of Quinte West on board for the installation of storm drain filters to decrease the
amount harmful substances entering the Trent-Severn Waterway. Rounding out the roster of finalists were Taylor Cridland and Hallye Ward of ENSS and their plan to install biodegradable bag dispensers at area beaches to reduce litter. “This contest is a good fit for the Lower Trent Conservation Authority,� said chief administrative officer Glen-
da Rodgers, who acted as MC for the event. “And it’s my favourite because it’s not just ideas, it’s about implementation and there are lots of things we can all do to help our environment.� “From what I’ve seen here this evening, the future looks very bright,� said Brighton Mayor Mark Walas, who attended the event to award some of the prizes.

News - Brighton – At their annual general meeting last week, the Brighton Health Services Centre (BHSC) board of directors celebrated the 11 years since the facility opened its doors to the community. As well as providing access to comprehensive family health care services the centre has created more than 40 full and part-time jobs. “Thanks to four family doctors supported by a team of allied health professionals and visiting specialists, Brighton Health Services Centre is now serving more than 6,000 patients,â€? BHSC treasurer Bruce Davis told the crowd. “We have a growing YMCA facility providing ďŹ tness programs to more than 500 members; we have a Community Care access centre satellite ofďŹ ce that is working hand-in-hand with medical specialists to ensure a coordinated approach to home care for our residents; and we have an Early Years Centre providing training and support for new mothers and their infants and toddlers.â€? As well, notes Davis, BHSC has paid almost $300,000 in property taxes since 2002. “I’m not complaining,â€? he said. “We’re very proud that we can support the economy in the way we are.â€? “We have been ďŹ nancially sustainable for the past eight years,â€? he added. “By that, I mean our operating revenues exceed our operating expenses and we’re creating an operating surplus every year. It’s not a big surplus, but we don’t have to go back to the community for donations. That, to me, is success. “It means we have the funds available to meet the ongoing cost of keeping the lights on in this building and it means we have the funds available to donate to community organizations that are in the same business as we are – to promote health and wellness.â€? As a registered charity, BHSC must use surplus funds outside of keeping a reasonably-
sized reserve back into their own work or to other organizations. “We do not disburse these grants because we have to,� said Davis. “We disburse these grants because we want to.� Since the Community Health Grant Program was launched in 2008, more than $124,000 has been given in support of 22 local organizations. “This is our way of thanking the hundreds, indeed thousands, of supporters who donated to our project in the early years and it’s also, in a very real way, extended the delivery of health and wellness programs for Brighton residents beyond these walls,� said Davis. This year, BHSC awarded $45,200 in health
grants to the Brighton Soccer Club, to purchase soccer balls and ďŹ rst aid kits ($1,000); Codrington Community Association, to introduce a recreational dancing program ($1,000); Brighton and District Figure Skating Club, to introduce adult skating lessons ($1,000); Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation, for the purchase of medical equipment ($2,500); Victorian Order of Nurses, to purchase video equipment for the Brighton day program ($800); Community Care Northumberland, in support of the Mealson-Wheels program ($2,000); Skate Canada Brighton, to provide accessible registration and ice time for local skaters ($1,500); St. Paul’s Anglican Church, in support of accessibility projects at the parish hall ($1,900); Sunny
Days group, to support summer camp activities for youth ($2,000); Friends of Presqu’ile Provincial Park, in support of the Kids ‘n Nature Program ($1,500); and the Brighton YMCA, to assist in its ďŹ ve-year local sustainability program ($30,000).

Glen Ross was also high. “Hastings has opened all the top gates,” she said. “The Trent River is not being held back.” She said they are having daily calls with Trent Severn Waterway officials. “The province even offered to pay for the conference calls,” she said. “This is a coordinated effort.” Larry Mitz commented there is still snow in the bush and three to five inches of ice with snow over it. “A lot of water is backed up,” he said. Quinte West Mayor John Williams and senior city officials met April 10 on the heels

artists an opportunity as possible. “It’s to give them access to audiences... and it’s also giving Belleville audiences a chance to see some of the talent that’s in the area,” Callahan said. “There’s just more talent out there than you can imagine and it’s really neat to give them a place to play.” Headlining the April 26 show is Paul King, a blues, folk and swing musician originally from the Kingston area. Other acts scheduled to take part alongside King and Callahan (who also performs) include Belleville guitarist Eugene Deline, musician and singer Eric Baragar, county folk artist Peter VanNuis, Loyalist student and musician Bobby Finkle, and a host of others. Admission for the event is $10 for adults and $5 for students, and proceeds are split between the musicians. Callahan said that amounted to about $20 per artist the first time out, or enough to cover travel expenses to the venue.
“We want to keep it fun - nobody is going to get rich at this thing I don’t think, but it is a good night of fun entertainment,” he said. New for the April 26 show is an earlier start time to avoid conflicts with other city events on the same night. The next Night Kitchen Too show starts at 5 p.m. at the Pinnacle Playhouse in downtown Belleville, and runs until about 7:30 p.m. Callahan said participating musicians usually stick around for a jam session after the performances are finished. Tickets can be purchased in advance at Harmony Music Plus, Pinnacle John, Penny and Roanna Kitchen (left to right) perform at Night Kitchen Music and Ardens Music. Too’s opening night in March. 16-year-old Roanna was the featured performer. The next show takes place on April 26 at 5 p.m.

News - Quinte West – Traffic signal updates along the Dundas and Dixon Drive corridors will cost the city $6,500. “That’s a great investment,” said Chris Angelo, director of Public Works and Environmental Services at the public works committee. He said the MMM Group will prepare updated signal timing plans and provide an outline of any required capital costs such as controller upgrades and interconnection costs. “It will improve the flow of traffic in Trenton ward,” Angelo said. Wayne Scaletta asked if the lights on Highway 2 across from Dairy Queen were going to get adjusted. Angelo said some lights are on a fixed time signal and others on a fixed loop. “This is all part of the analysis,” he said. “Some systems are fairly old. We will get updates, interconnections and wireless or hard-wired information in the study.” Jim Harrison thought the price was high just for a study. Angelo said it covers all of Dundas from Walmart to RCAF Road including 13 to 15 intersections, as well as Dixon Drive. Chuck Naphan commented that costs are high for this kind of work.

My hair was thinning! For a long time Christie had wanted to do something extra for her hair. She felt it appeared dull and was thinning. Hair VolumeTM became her resource.
C
hristie encountered hair loss, which was very frustrating. “I have tried many things before, but to no avail.”
Read about Hair Volume™ Christie has worked in a pharmacy all her life. “Maybe that is why I was skeptical, when I first read about Hair Volume. I am always studying the declarations very carefully and there was something about this product,
which made me realize that it was special.”
Very positive experience “Today I have taken the Hair Volume tablets for 38 days and I can truly feel an improvement and less hair loss. My nails are also stronger and less grooved. All in all a very positive experience. I will definitely continue taking this product”, relates a happy Christie.
DID YOU KNOW? Grey hairs can begin to appear due to a lack of copper in your diet. Hair Volume™ tablets contain copper, which affects melanin production to help avoid grey hairs.
YOUR HAIR TABLET Hair Volume™ nourishes the hair roots with nutrients like biotin, zinc, b-vitamins and horsetail, all important for healthy hair. Hair Volume also contains procynidin B2 found in apples, which has shown to benefit hair follicle activity. Available at participating pharmacies and health food stores.

Sleep apnea is nothing to snore at
Sleep Apnea is a serious, potentially lifethreatening condition that is diagnosed when a person stops breathing for more than 10-seconds, multiple times during a period of sleep. If you or your partner is suffering from sleep apnea, a visit to your dentist, as well as your doctor may provide lifesaving treatment options. For those who have or live with someone with sleep apnea and live in or around the Trenton/Quinte West and Belleville area, Dr. Brett's Family Dentistry can provide a treatment option that has been shown to be a very effective in the treatment of snoring and sleep apnea. Dr Brett and his staff are committed to your care. They will discuss your condition, answer any questions you may have, and provide a treatment option known as oral appliance therapy. Obstructive sleep apnea is a result of the relaxation of the throat muscles during sleep, leading to collapse of the airway and prevention of normal air flow (oxygen) to the brain. This results in increased efforts to breathe and therefore poor, interrupted sleep. Loud snoring, punctuated by silences, followed by a snort or choking sound are signs a partner should listen for.

News - Quinte West – A pond hockey tournament at Batawa in January has scored big for the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation. “We have $15,000 for the Foundation,” said executive director Wendy Warner. “This will be spent in the urology department.” She expressed gratitude that the 8 Wing hockey players were all volunteers, taking their spare time to contribute to the fundraiser for the third year. Captain Jeff Moorhouse of 436 Squadron said the fundraising was shared with the Military Families Fund which also received $15,000. “We had 26 teams participate,” Moorhouse said. “Next year we hope to have four rinks and 32 teams on the ice.” He acknowledged that the trophy was donated by Mrs. Bata for the Team Spirit Award. He noted that the team captain was Elissa Lee and there were three women on the team. Moorhouse thanked Scotiabank and ScotiaMcLeod for their sponsorship. The pond hockey classic was held at Batawa on January 17 and 18 with 208 players participating. A dinner was held at the National Air Force Museum of Canada with special guest Walter Gretzky. “Your squadron inspired the community,” said John Smylie, chair of the TMH Foundation at the cheque presentations on April 8 at the hospital. “You did this on your own time and it is greatly appreciated. This will help sustain health care in the hospital. Thank you. We hope you will consider us again next year. Well done.” Mayor John Williams said the dinner guest speakers have been phenomenal including Ron Ellis last year and Walter Gretzky this year. He said it was a great event, with Mrs. Bata there. He noted that city staff had helped prepare and clear the ice. He said they need to get a Zamboni for next year’s event. “We appreciate the fact that we work together,” he said.

A dentist can help by fabricating an oral appliance to help reposition the lower jaw and assist the airway for proper flow during sleep to allow for a restful night. Other things Dr. Brett can suggest are avoiding sleeping on your back, maintaining a healthy weight through a healthy diet and regular exercise and if you smoke, it is time to stop. Sleep apnea is a very serious condition that has been shown to be associated with conditions such as high blood
pressure and increased risk of stroke, and dental professionals such as Dr. Brett are at your service to help.

Aron Theatre made more accessible thanks to Ontarion Trillium Foundation grant
By Sue Dickens
Entertainment – Campbellford – When the curtain goes up at the Aron Theatre, another milestone, one of many, will be centre stage at the Aron Theatre Co-operative. Workers spent a day replacing the existing wooden entrance doors with new aluminum ones, and installing a power door-operator. “Thanks to a Trillium grant primarily for barrier-free accessible washrooms, a portion was put to the doors as well,” said Mark White, Aron’s vice president. Funding in the amount of $23,200 came from the Ontario Trillium Foundation but as well the theatre has received

$5,000 from the Campbellford/Seymour Community Foundation and $5,000 from the Municipality of Trent Hills. ‘”It’s just incredible we get that support. It’s really important,” said White. Using local contractors, skilled trades and volunteers, the new enhancement to
the Aron was completed in one day. The job of putting in the new accessible doors was done by Cody Humphries and Fred Bolton of Peterborough Glass & Window. “We are putting in brand new aluminum commercial doors with push
buttons making the theatre wheelchair accessible,” said Bolton, the day of the renovation. “We will get it all done today.” Accessibility improvements to the Aron began in January 2013 with the complete reconfiguration and restoration of the theatre seating area to accommodate wheelchair access including the addition of spaces for patrons in wheelchairs and their companions, White explained. That project was funded by members of the co-op through seat sponsorships. “The work was completed with thousands of volunteer hours from members of our community,” he said. The success of the Aron Theatre has led to the coining of a phrase, “We call it Arondipity,” White added. From the time the community rallied to buy the theatre back in November, 2009, until now, the improvements and community support has been there. At that time Russ Christianson, (who was president of the Campbellford-Seymour Community Development CorpoCody Humphries and Fred Bolton of Peterborough Glass & Window make the necessary renovations ration), spearheaded the effort to transto the Aron Theatre in Campbellford, making it more accessible with a push button and wider en- form the theatre into a co-op in order to keep it alive after long-time owner Paul tranceway for easier access.

“On May 4, in conjunction the Aron’s Annual General Meeting, we will be celebrating with a number of events that day to showcase our improvements to accessibility and promote accessibility in Trent Hills,” said White. A press release will be issued closer to the date to let everyone know what will be happening. “The Aron is very grateful for the continued support of our funders, members, volunteers, and neighbours who have enabled us to take a leadership in improving our community,” said White.

“Bark for Life” cancer fund-raiser coming to Campbellford By Sue Dickens
News – Trent Hills – Who let the dogs out? The organizers of a new event coming here are letting not only their dogs out but the word out about a new event coming soon. “Tell cancer it barked up the wrong tree” is the phrase being used to promote “Bark for Life,” a new event coming to Trent Hills. In the past Relay for Life organizers have held a kick-off breakfast in April to launch the annual campaign but this year a change is providing a new way to inspire participation. “Bark for Life,” is coming to Campbellford and it’s an event that is held across the province, but it’s never been held here,” said Darlene Brown, past co-chair of Trent Hills Relay for Life. “It is a sister event to the Relay for Life,” she explained.

“We’re doing it In place of the kick-off breakfast. It’s a chance for Relay participants to come out and get their kits,” she added. Brown noted the organization is “trying to get a whole new group of people involved and “Bark for Life” just seemed like a great idea.” Both she and her sister Bev McComb participated in the “Bark for Life” held in Marmora last year. “I have been in the Relay for LIfe for over six years now and I guess this fund-raiser just sounded really good. When we went to Marmora and participated, it was fantastic,” said McComb, who has been active as a team captain. “There were at least 25 dogs in it there. It was wonderful,” she added. The Canadian Cancer Society hopes by inviting dog owners to join in the fight against cancer, there will be even more support. “It’s a fun event, not a serious walk, it’s a fund-raiser and we’re having the rally at the same time. People who are interested in putting in a team in Relay for Life or joining or finding out about Relay for Life can come,” said Brown. Emily Vassiliadis Relay for Life fund-raising co-ordinator with Canadian Cancer Society Peterborough and District office told the Trent Hills Independent, “Bark for Life is a volunteer run event with staff support. “This is for individuals as opposed to teams,” she added. “We have a modest goal of $1,500,” she commented. Dogs have to be on a leash and it will be held rain or shine. Vassiliadis also wanted readers to know that the format for

Brighton Minor Hockey Annual General Meeting Brighton & District Minor Hockey is holding their annual general meeting
News – Campbellford – This year’s fundraising Dream Lottery is striking a chord with all of the students at the Campbellford District High School (CDHS). For the first time the fundraiser will give every student the opportunity to sell tickets. An all-school assembly was held on March 31 with a fun component featuring videos of students called “what would you do for $10,” which was done to promote the new campaign. “Every ticket a student sells will also effectively give them $10 (not cash) to put towards a school based extracurricular activity,” said music teacher Dave Noble. “I’ve been thinking of making this change for the last couple of years .... The school does budget for extracurricular stuff but it’s not enough to cover all the costs,” he explained. “I’ve always wanted to help the kids in music to be able to participate. That’s always been my mantra and I’ve always wanted all the kids to participate ... So when I presented the idea that all the students sell tickets to the Dream Lottery, the principal said, ‘so what’s the downside’,
. . . and there is no downside,” Noble said. Staff jumped on the bandwagon too. “The teachers are very supportive, buying tickets to help the kids,” he added. “The school doesn’t benefit in any way from this fundraiser, this is benefiting the students. We want kids to be part of the school teams. We want them to have a great experience in the school.” The idea that all the students at CDHS will be selling tickets seems to be hitting all the right notes. Rachael Doyle, student council’s prime minister, in Grade 12, is in the senior jazz band and plays volleyball at CDHS. She said, “I will probably split the profit on the tickets I sell because in volleyball we have fees to cover and bus costs, tournament fees and stuff like that and whatever I have left will go towards my Vancouver trip.” The junior and senior jazz bands will be heading to Vancouver to compete in MusicFest Canada, May 12 to 17. The cost per student is approximately $1,900. Waylon Morningstar, a Grade 10 student in the senior band, plays the trumpet and is also a defensive lineman on
the CDHS football team. “I’m going to pay for my football fees and we have to pay for busing to get to games and some of the equipment and referees . . . and then I‘m going to put leftover money into my Vancouver trip,” he said. Grade 12 music student Eva Osterlee said, “The fact you get to pick and choose where to use the money is kind of cool.” Alex Fedora, a Grade 11 student who plays bass in the junior jazz band, agreed. “I think this plan will help the school more as a whole for all of the teams
rather than for just one group.” Trombone player and Grade 11 student Brianna Parcels said, “I will be using the majority of my money for the Vancouver trip but I am also on the Boston trip so this will help pay for it.” The Dream Lottery featuring the school’s jazz bands takes place April 26 and tickets are $20 per family. There is a $5,000 grand prize to be won (don’t have be there to win) as well as many big door prizes. “It really is terrific to have people come and see what we do. They hear about us but it’s nice to actually experience what we do,” said Doyle.
The music students at Campbellford’s high school are being joined by the entire student body to sell tickets this year for the Dream Lottery and some of the money can be put towards any school activity of the student’s. Seated front from left are drummer Ben Maxell and Eva Osterlee; standing back from left, Brianna Parcels, Rachael Doyle, Beatrice Muldoon, Waylon Morningstar, Alex Fedora, Peter Wowk and Meaghan Steinmann.

Brighton boy to compete at tenpin national championships Sports – Brighton – Nicholas Blagojevic is one step away from achieving national stardom. The 11-year-old from Brighton won the bantam boys division at the Four Steps to Stardom Tenpin provincial championships held in Burlington earlier this year, and he’ll head to Winnipeg next month to complete his journey at Youth Bowling Canada’s national championships. “He’s pretty happy,” says his mother Lisa. Nicholas, who has been bowling since he was four, isn’t one to talk about himself, saying shyly he was drawn to bowling because “it’s just really fun,” and that qualifying for the national championships is “exciting.” His mother is happy to fill in the blanks. “He loves it. He eats, sleeps, breathes bowling.” Nicholas plays in a league every Saturday morning at the Quinte Bowling Centre in Belleville and practices twice a week to improve his game. “He likes to be on the lanes as much as possible,” Lisa said. His dedication to the sport has paid off; he’s won three tournaments in the last few months, garnering close to $400 in scholarships that’s been put in a trust for his future education. “This is the first year we’ve put him in a lot of tournaments, just building up his strength, seeing how he can do, and he’s definitely been able to compete,” his mother said. Nicholas’s passion for bowling is a family trait. His parents and older sister are also avid bowlers. Lisa said
Nicholas Blagojevic is excited to be going to Winnipeg next month to represent Ontario in the Youth Bowling Canada National Championships’ bantam division. The Brighton resident who attends St. Peter Catholic School in Trenton, will be competing against boys from B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Northern Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick.

her daughter, Mackenzie, is “quite good,” and her husband, Andrew, whose average score is 210, has registered 10 perfect games of 300.
All three will accompany Nicholas when he flies to Winnipeg for the championships May 2-5, where he will play 21 games representing Ontario in team
and match play. Bowling is his favourite sport but he also enjoys playing hockey and baseball for this hometown teams, and street hockey with his friends. “He’s very athletic,” Lisa said, and his coaches always comment “he puts his all” into whatever he plays. One of his bowling coaches, Garry Finch, said Nicholas is “a real joy to coach. He’s just like a sponge, he wants to learn. You’d love to see more kids like that. He’s going to do well ... He’s very good at it. “He’s got great hand, (and) he throws a pretty good hook,” he said. “It takes a lot of practice and he’s very dedicated.” Finch said Nicholas is so good he could some day go to university in the United States on a bowling scholarship, the same as his son Brock has done. He’s in the third year of a four-year program at Urbana University in Ohio. “It’s saving my son, when he’s all done, close to a hundred thousand dollars,” Finch said. Tenpin bowling in the United States is “twice as big as what our hockey is to Canada,” he said, and universities there are scouting here for quality bowlers. Nicholas’s parents have realized what the possibilities are and are helping their son realize his full potential, he said. “I’m sure he’ll end up (with) a scholarship.” Finch will find it difficult to top the field at Winnipeg “but he is going to end up with a national title before he even gets old enough to be even considered for a scholarship down in the States,” Finch said. Nicholas’ father said it will be “a good experience for him.”
Andrew came close to making it to the nationals once but came in second at the provincials, losing by four pins – the same margin of victory that Nicholas registered when he played in February. “I’m kind of living his dream a little bit,” he said. He and his wife have
helped their children improve their bowling by taking them to clinics and camps south of the border. Andrew said his son can get “a little overwhelmed and frustrated” during a tournament but “if he calms himself down early, he’ll do fine.”

By Kate Everson
News – Quinte West – Even shooting a pellet rie has gone electronic. “This is not your old BB gun and paper target any more,â€? said Captain Corey Lohnes at the CFB Trenton gymnasium with 105 cadets on Saturday. “It is all electronic scoring. The ries are able to shoot half a millimetre target.â€? He said this is the ďŹ rst time the cadets have used this technology. The cadets were familiar with the ries but not the scoring which is recorded automatically on the screen. “We have some of the best marksmen from all over Ontario here today,â€? Lohnes said. “The regionals really narrow it down, with 105 out of 17,000 cadets in Ontario competing.â€? In the nationals the following day, 15 cadets competed with air, sea and army cadets from across the country to win medals and trophies. “This is all ages, from 12 to 18 years old, male and female,â€? he added. “One of our best marksmen is a 15-year-old girl from Alberta.â€? He said the new technology makes it easier to compete across Canada without everyone having to come together. They can post their results electronically. Each cadet gets 10 shots to record their score. Teams consist of ďŹ ve cadets including two juniors under 15. “It’s so cool to embrace the technology,â€? Lohnes said. “This is our ďŹ rst go. We just started three weeks ago.â€? He noted that this training in marksmanship involves focus, concentration and self discipline. “It gives cadets the opportunity to attain lifelong skills,â€? he said. The cadets train to slow their heart rate down while aiming to focus only on the target, despite other distractions like noise all around them. “It gives them a sense of accomplishment,â€? he added.

Local cannabis advocate happy with court injunction
By Sue Dickens
News – Campbellford – “We won! We can keep growing! – for now,� said Al Graham, a cannabis advocate who has been dealing with Crohn’s Disease for over ten years and uses medical marijuana to get through each day. He was responding to a decision by a Federal Court judge in Vancouver who granted an injunction allowing those who have a personal production licence to continue to grow medical marijuana for now. This follows a period of angst by those having licenses to grow and to use medi-
cal marijuana as the new Health Canada rules that went into effect on April 1 allows a few companies to begin production of marijuana for licensed patients. “The government wants to remove our grow license and force us to buy from commercial growers. Some patients grow outside for $500 or less per year but now they will be forced to pay commercial prices that will cost them tens of thousands of dollars. When a person is making $12,000 or less on disability this becomes impossible,� said Graham. “Presently there are 11 licensed com-
mercial business approved but only three are fully running. These three cannot ďŹ ll the orders for everyone, thus a supply issue becomes a problem,â€? he added. “Our goal was to have the judge render an injunction on the present Marijuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAAR) program until the new program can be segued in the courts on its constitutionality,â€? he explained. Graham is a patient and a spokesperson for the grassroots advocacy group People Advocating Cannabis Education (P.A.C.E.) as well as a host, one of ďŹ ve,
on the The P.A.C.E. radio show. “The medical marijuana program in Canada has been before the courts with numerous cases since it began in 2001. Every time they lose and this latest injunction further shows that, after all these years, the government can’t get the program right,â€? said Graham. “This leads me to believe the only solution is to legalize it like wine and beer for everyone. Buy it at a licensed store or grow it yourself. In the end we collect some taxes and remove the ďŹ nancial support to gangs and criminal organizations.
Never mind the savings to our healthcare system,� he added. Taking his beliefs to the streets, he attended a patient rally on Parliament Hill in Ottawa the day before the Health Canada regulations came into effect. “It was a windy cold day but about 125 people showed up ... The small crowd could be expected, never mind they’re sick ... and sick people don’t have extra money to travel,� he noted. “Rally event organizers and speakers met with the press in the press gallery to

Annual wood carving show takes over QSWC By Steve Jessel
Birds and waterfowl are popular subjects for woodcarvers, dating back to when the practice was used as a hunting aid. Photo: Steve Jessel
News – Belleville – Competitors and spectators crowded into the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre Saturday for the largest woodcarving competition in Eastern Ontario, where nearly 300 competitors submitted their best and brightest pieces in hopes of taking home top prize in their respective categories. Organized by the Quinte Wood Carvers’ Association, the 27th annual Quinte Wood Carving Championship is a oneday, annual event that regularly attracts more than 1,000 spectators each year. Competitors submit pieces in four classes, four divisions and more than 20 categories during the show, where judges carefully inspect each entry for things like symmetry, detail and proper use of colour. Longtime carver and Quinte Wood Carver’s Association member Serge Moisan said contestants come from all over Ontario for the event, from as far as Niagara and London, and that it seems to have a good reputation NATIONAL AIR FORCE MUSEUM OF CANADA among visitors as same carvers Tickets $100 each the seem to return year at the Trenton MFRC after year.

“Wood is very forgiving – it’s a relaxing thing for me,” Moisan said, when asked what he loves most about carving. Fellow Quinte Wood Carvers’ Association member Bob Trottier is one of the founding members of the group, and said that today they number around 60, meeting twice weekly to share tips and tricks and to hold and attend classes. A woodcarver since 1987, Trottier said he started with ducks as most carvers do, but for the past few years has been focusing on carving seabirds, as he finds them more “graceful.” Ducks are a common subject for woodcarvers as the practice seemingly originated with historical duck hunters, who would carve “duck decoys” in order to attract their prey. “It’s a chance to show creativity,” Trottier said. “It’s a good hobby because it challenges you, it makes you think.” Trottier typically starts by finding an appropriate subject for a carving, then takes to the internet to find as much information as he can, including dimensional drawings and natural photographs of his subject. From there Trottier creates his own drawing of the subject before selecting a piece of wood – he said basswood and tupelo are the two most common woods used. “From there, I carve away everything that isn’t bird,” he laughed. Once a carving is complete, Trottier takes to painting the piece, which is
commonly required if the piece is going to be entered in a competition. Trottier said painting is something that gives a lot of carvers significant difficulty as it requires a completely different skillset. Trottier tends towards more muted colour schemes, as he said they look more natural. “We have an expression – you either carve to paint or paint to carve,” he said. “You want your carving to support the painting as much as you can.” Trottier entered just one piece in the competition Saturday, as he said he had been too busy teaching with the club, which always welcomes more members. To find out more information about the Quinte Wood Carvers’ Association, visit their website at www.quintewoodcarvers.ca or call Ken at 613-966-4457.

Veteran marijuana lawyer John Conroy, enlisted by the Marijuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAAR) Coalition Against Repeal, was present and spoke to the media and the gathering. The federal government has said it would challenge any injunction that bars new rules requiring marijuana users to receive their supply from commercial growers. Graham is happy with the injunction and glad to have an opportunity to talk about the matter, which remains before the courts. “We are the victims not only because of our medical condition but also in the way our government portrays us and by telling our stories it helps to eliminate this stigmatization.” His P.A.C.E. radio show is broadcast online at http://time4hemp.com/pace-radio/ every Monday and Wednesday night at 9 p.m.

Book launch brings together veterans and families
By Kate Everson
Events - Quinte West “This is a very special event,” said Robert Amesse of the Quinte West library as friends and family of the HMCS Trentonian gathered at city hall on April 12. It was the launch of Roger Litwiller’s book “White Ensign Flying” and the donation of the original cover painting to the library by Bayside artist Marc Magee. At the event were veterans Bill Shields from Oakville, Gord Gibbons from Lindsay and Jim Erwin from Bancroft with their families. There were also families of deceased
crew members, Marion Lewis from Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan for the family of Lewis Murphy, the Glassco family of Colin Glassco, Commanding Officer of the HMCS Trentonian, the Dodd family of Donald Dodds, gunnery officer, and the Chadbolt family of George Chadbolt. “Welome to the veterans,” Mayor John Williams said. He congratulated Roger Litwiller for a fantastic story. “It captures the people, what the guys went through,” he said. “Telling the story is really important.” Williams said Mayor

Cory of Trenton submitted the name Trentonia which was later changed to Trentonian by mistake, but the king had already signed it. He noted that citizens of Trenton were involved supporting the corvette and contributing everything from an accordion to a washing machine. Mrs. Cory christened the ship in Kingston before it went to sea. MPP Rob Milligan commented, “It is truly an honour to be here.” He thanked Roger for encapsulating the memory and the stories. He said it is important to generations of Canadians to know what these people had to endure so that we enjoy the freedoms we have today. Tom Riefesel, Chief Petty Officer of the Royal Canadian Navy, said the Battle of the Atlantic brought Canada to power during World War II with the efforts, tenacity and comradeship of the sailors. “We stand upon your shoulders today,” he said. “Service to Mayor John Williams and MPP Rob Milligan joined in the presentation with veterans Bill Shields, Jim Erwin and Gord Gibbons with author Roger Litwiller and Chief Petty Officer Tom Riefesel. Photo: Kate Everson one’s country is noble work.” Robert Amesse introduced author Roger Litwiller, and noted that he got a lot of research right here in Trenton library with notes from Hazel Farley who was the town’s liaison with the ship and kept track of the local servicemen. “I am proud to have been able to assist Roger,” he said. Roger Litwiller smiled, “What a day! This is an absolutely glorious celebration! I am absolutely shocked by the turnout today.” He thanked the veterans whose action in 15 months has given our nation what it has today. “You have our gratitude,” he said. He noted that Marc Magee’s painting of the HMCS Trentonian hung on his own wall for two years, but he is now donating it to the library so it can be shared with many. Litwiller said the book started as a project to teach cadets. He became so involved it turned into 13 years of research for the book. He noted the

His one son joined the air force “but I still love him,” he smiled. Litwiller also noted that the Battle of the Atlantic will be commemorated in Halifax with the construction of a massive four acre building to be built in the harbour by 2017. “This has to be done,” he said. “If we don’t do this, we let go of our history and sacrifice by Canadians.”

Two bands, a singer, a great cause Entertainment - The evening of Friday, May 9 will see the culmination of the above- mentioned combination! These three elements will come together at the annual concert of the Trenton Citizens’ Band which is organized by the Lunch Bunch of King Street United Church in support of instrumental music programs in six local schools. The format of the evening at King Street Church (100 King Street, Trenton) starts with dessert and beverage in the auditorium (6:30 p.m. - 7:15 p.m.) and is followed by the concert beginning at 7:30 p.m. in the beautiful sanctuary. Together, our Citizens’ Band, the Jazz Rock Band from Trenton High School as well as soloist Holly Carroll will provide an awesome variety of music that evening. The Trenton Citizens’ Band has been directed by Mr. Don Embree for eight years and is now in its 52nd year. The THS Jazz Rock Band is under the direction of Mr. Vince Thornton who has taught music at Trenton High for six years. This will be the debut Trenton performance
of Holly Carroll, a well-known singer who is now semi-retired in Trenton. Numbers that will be performed by the Trenton Citizens’ Band include tunes from Broadway’s “Lion King”, “Cats” and “La Cage aux Folles”! As well, the band will play Don’s own arrangement of “Jerusalem”. To recognize the significance of Honour Day, the band will play an original composition by Chris Embree titled “The Memory of His Smile”. Its poignant theme will be explained that evening. Trenton High School’s band will feature jazz band arrangements of “The James Bond Theme” and “Another One Bites the Dust” by Queen. Another highlight of the evening will be provided by guest singer Holly Carroll who brings with her many years of performing, starting with the Elmer Eisler Chorus in Toronto at the early age of 15 years. For many years, she performed on radio and television broadcasts including CBC’s “Juliet Show”. Holly was a nightclub singer for several years and has travelled around the world to perform. Before coming to Tren-
ton, she formed a music preparation company in New York City. During the concert, her powerful soprano voice will be heard on numbers that include “Memory” from “Cats” and the “Shadow of Your Smile” which are most appropriate for mothers on this Mothers’ Day weekend. Thus, the audience, after enjoying delicious desserts, will be entertained by two fantastic local bands as well as an amazing singer! Our Trenton Citizens’ Band is going to have a very busy Friday, May 9th as they will perform at two Honour Day celebrations. One will be in the morning at the Afghan War Memorial in Bain Park and they will play again at Quinte West City Hall in the early afternoon. Trenton High School is performing an original ‘50’s themed musical titled “One for the Money” set to the music of Elvis from May 29 – 31. Tickets for the May 9th event at King Street Church are only $8 (all students are free). They may be obtained by contacting a member of the Lunch Bunch, through the church office (613-392-5270) or at the door that evening.
News - Hastings – It’s a good news story that very nearly became one of the nature’s greatest man-made tragedies. “The Peregrine Falcon is still the most highly studied species and bird on the planet even after 40 years of recovery programs in North America,” says Mark Nash, of the notfor-profit Canadian Peregrine Foundation he helped found in 1997 after a national breeding program closed and government funding was curtailed. Nash visited Hastings Public School recently to talk about the remarkable bird’s “special story and plight.” Not only is the Peregrine the fastest animal on the planet, clocked at over 400 miles per hour in swoops and dives, something the United States Air Force took notice of when it incorporated some of the bird’s features into its F-16 jet fighter, Nash says the bird has “given us a lot to history and more recently the DDT.” Because of “negative human intervention” in the form of the very effective, yet toxic, chemical insecticide DDT, the Peregrine was officially listed as “extirpated” in Ontario by 1980. There was not one “producing pair” in the entire province,” Nash said in an interview. But there’s been a blos-
soming of sorts in the species thanks to the banning of DDT in North America and the introduction of recovery programs. “The good news for the Peregrine is that is has come off the endangered species list,” says Nash, “but it’s still a species at risk.” The species’ recovery isn’t advanced enough to leave it to fend for itself. There are between 84 and 86 “occupied territories” in Ontario today, says Nash. “Whether there are one or two peregrines per territory or whether they’re breeding remains to be seen.” The news is “very positive” but Nash still characterizes the numbers as “pathetically low” after a very expensive national recovery program in Canada. “So it’s gone from zero to 80 plus pairs. We’re starting to see a great rebound attributed to a national recovery program in Canada, captive breeding and release, banning DDT, endangered species laws, a lot of education and a lot of other programs carried on with non-governmental organizations (NGOs). It’s been an accumulation of a lot of different things over 40 years.” But cautious optimism is the watchword, says Nash. “The species has a 90 per cent mortality rate to breeding age; (that’s) Mother Nature’s checks and balances control-
ling overpopulation of a species but Mother Nature never anticipated DDT which practically decimated the Peregrine in North America. “The Peregrine, Bald Eagle and Osprey were our canary in a coal mine. They told us that story. Had it not been for the near demise of the species there’s a good chance we’d still be using (DDT) today,” said Nash. The chemical is still being used in some South American countries to fight malaria. “It really is a reliable monitor for the health of our environment, particularly our land mass because Peregrines eat exclusively other birds. Whatever is affecting the Peregrine is probably affecting humans.” The Peregrine, says Nash, is “one of the top environmental monitoring superstars” which governments should be monitoring more closely because of what the species tells us about the world around us.

Wetland/Wildlife bus tours offered
Lifestyles - Everything you would like to know about wetlands and their wildlife is available on Wetland/Wildlife Bus Tours! On May 3, in the Belleville area, the Eastern Ontario Stewardship Collaborative is offering a free bus tour led by experienced guides to view fascinating wetland projects. Note the registration details below. Wetlands are a tremendous resource, providing valuable services such as flood prevention, drought resilience, and wildlife habitat. In fact, our wetlands abound with exceptional biodiversity and they are teeming with life. Wetlands provide essential habitat for as many as 600 species of wildlife in Canada. Think of the classic image of our great blue heron gracefully soaring overhead. Numerous duck species as well as the elegant loon live and play in our ponds and wetlands. This is an opportunity to learn
much more about birds, ducks and other wildlife residing in our wetlands. As part of the tours, our birding expert (with experience of 30 plus years) will conduct short birding forays on site. The bus tour will visit several distinctive wetland projects and the tour guides will highlight the value of the projects and answer your questions. This is a chance for citizens to find out how to help protect this valuable resource. The tour guides are wetland professionals with backgrounds in ecology and conservation programming. Many organizations including Ducks Unlimited, Conservation Authorities and Stewardship Councils are working to protect and enhance wetlands in our area. The tour guides can direct landowners to appropriate expertise and funding help for those interested in their own wetland projects. Belleville Tour: On Saturday,
May 3, the bus tour by luxury coach departs from Belleville at 9 am. Participants will visit two excellent wetland project sites in Hastings and Prince Edward Counties. Other sites will be pointed out en route. The tour will take approximately three hours, and the bus will return to Belleville at about 12:30 p.m. Note there is also a bus tour in the Kingston/L&A area on May 4. Contact EOSC (Lesley) for details. Bring your rubber boots and be prepared for some walking and mucking about. Included in the tours are a wetland information package, snacks and drinks. There is no charge for the tours; they are compliments of the Eastern Ontario Stewardship Collaborative. Registration is required by April 25.

A visit to the gardens and canals in China’s Suzhou

Lifestyles - While visiting China’s largest city, Shanghai, my wife and I decided to take a day trip to nearby Suzhou, a city renowned for its gardens and canals; after all, it’s often referred to as the “City of Gardens” and as the “Venice of the East”. It’s located just about 100 km. northwest of Shanghai, and it’s one of a series of water villages along the Yangtze River delta that contain several garden estates, narrow canals, and a plethora of arched bridges. However, we discovered that this water
village also had a population that was much larger than that of Toronto. The highlight of our visit was our boat tour through the narrow canals themselves and under the many arched bridges. We took our excursion on a Monday, and it appeared to be wash day here. We saw several people washing clothes in the river itself and many freshly cleaned clothes were on display, drying in the sun. We also saw many Chinese lanterns on display as we glided along the way and we even saw a bride sitting on a

bridge in her wedding gown (this apparently was actually a model merely posing for photos rather than a bride at a real wedding). Residents who lived next to the waterway were able to literally shop from home, for they could simply lower baskets and purchase fresh produce directly from the passing boats. We saw several skyscrapers including a large Holiday Inn along the Grand Canal before we entered the more intimate, narrow canal system and then these modern buildings suddenly vanished from our sight. We seemed to be quickly transported back in time, for we now encountered ancient buildings along the narrow canals, primarily white houses with black tiled roofs, along with stone bridges including one that was over 800 years old and wooden boats. The ride through the narrow canals was very peaceful, tranquil and, yes, it did remind me somewhat of Venice. If we met another boat on these narrow streets, we had to proceed with great caution, as there was barely room to get by one another. The water itself appeared to be quite murky, too but the locals were using it for washing their clothes. I even saw a dead rat floating in the water. Suzhou is also famous for its silk industry, so we went to a silk factory, too, where we not only saw the beautiful silk scarves, dresses, shirts, bedding, etc., but also learned about the entire process from silk worms, to cocoons, to the grading and boiling of cocoons, to the gathering of the thread and the making of the finished products. We also visited Suzhou’s

well known Tiger Hill, where the Yunyan Temple Pagoda has been a city landmark for over a thousand years; here we climbed the hill for an up close and personal view of what’s known locally as the Leaning Tower of Suzhou for there’s a definite tilt to it. We also checked out the city’s ancient Pan Gate, which was built about 2500 years ago by the state of Wu, and learned that its new Gate of the
Orient is the city’s tallest building completed in 2011. While visiting Suzhou, we also checked out some of its meticulously designed gardens, for there are so many of them in this city, including the Garden of Cultivation, Lion Grove Garden, Master of the Nets Garden, Lingering Garden, Couple’s Retreat Garden, and the Humble Administrator’s Garden. While
at the Master of Nets Garden, for example, we saw a chariot-style vehicle’on display which was used to carry someone important via shoulders, and our local tour guide called this “the BMW of ancient China”. This particular garden was built over 800 years ago by a wealthy son for his father and it’s one of several classical Suzhou gardens recognized as a World Heritage Site.

“I know that the level of this band is absolutely insane,” Wowk told the Trent Hills Independent after hearing the news in an email. “I feel very privileged to be one of two alto saxophones in the band.” Wowk went through a rigorous audition process and will fly out to British Columbia on May 11 to rehearse and perform for a
solid week at the Nationals. The Musicfest Canada Nationals is one of the largest music festivals in the world, bringing together the best school groups from across the country to perform in a different Canadian city each year. School groups must earn the right to perform at the Nationals by winning a gold award and being recommended by adjudicators at regional festivals. Wowk’s group will be recording a CD while in Vancouver. He earned this honour after a lot of hard work and practice. “I’ve been taking violin lessons since I was five. I’ve been playing the saxophone since Grade 9,” he commented. He also plays the viola and piano. Wowk is a member of the senior jazz band at CDHS but admits his first choice is classical music. However, he does enjoy
the improvising that is integral to playing jazz. “I’m just really looking forward to playing with people out there that are at such a high level, essentially professionals, playing at the professional level. Being surrounded by them and being able to play and better myself as a musician at the same time, I think that’s what’s most important to me,” he added. Wowk joins a prestigious group of musicians from CDHS who have earned this honour. “We’ve had several students be in the national all-star group and a few others who have gone off to professional music careers, but I think Peter is the most musically accomplished at this stage of his musical career,” said CDHS music teacher Dave Noble. He would like to see his love of music
take him on a career path that would include playing for an orchestra one day. “I want to go to university for the music performance program . . . and specify the violin,” he said. Wowk is considering applying to the University of Toronto or McGill or Wilfrid Laurier University. Noble commented on Wowk’s success. “This is a huge accomplishment these days. You pretty much have to be pro to win this. This is a tremendous honour, and well deserved,” he said. “Peter is the most outstanding musician we’ve ever had in my time at the school.” Noble has been teaching at CDHS for 20 years, and in that time CDHS groups have won 25 national gold awards, performed with Jeff Healey and the Downchild Blues Band, and were invited guests of Canada’s Governor General in Ottawa.
Condolence book for Jim Flaherty
News - Peterborough – A condolence book to honour the late Jim Flaherty will be at the constituency office of Peterborough MP Dean Del Mastro for the general public to sign. The book will be at the constituency office until the House of Parliament resumes its session on April 28. Mr. Flaherty, the Government of Canada’s thirty-seventh finance minister and the
MP for Whitby-Oshawa since 2006, died suddenly of a heart attack on April 10. A state funeral was held April 16 in Toronto; it was the thirty-fourth state funeral to be held in Canada since 1868, the seventh to pay tribute to a cabinet minister. “Jim was a great friend and colleague, a dedicated family man, and an extraordinary Minister of Finance who sacrificed an enormous amount in his
years of service to Canada and to Canadians,” Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in announcing the state funeral. “He will be remembered with great affection and respect. Jim and his family remain in our thoughts and our prayers at this difficult time.” MP Del Mastro’s constituency office is located at 1600 Lansdowne Street West, Unit 3.

Figurative artist returns to Warkworth
By Sue Dickens
News – Warkworth – Returning to Warkworth, Toronto artist Brian Smith will be hosting a teaching workshop called “Portraiture – Realism to Abstraction”. This will be his fourth visit to Warkworth in less than two years. He juried the Maple Syrup Festival in 2013, and followed up with two Figurative Abstraction workshops in May and October. Both workshops were sold out with 20 artists participating in each event. The workshop is being promoted by the Spirit of the Hills Northumberland Arts Association. “With only two spots left, the workshop fills up quickly and is sure to be another highlight of the art year for
Spirit of the Hills members,” said Diane Arsenault, president of the Spirit of the Hills. She provided an outline for the course. “This exciting and in-depth two-day portraiture course will begin with lessons aimed at developing one’s ability to capture a likeness of any model. Starting from an understanding of facial landmarks and proportions, you will be challenged to look for and isolate the unique features that identify each of us. “On day two we will play visual games that will help you think more abstractly about the face and facilitate deconstruction of the image. I believe that understanding the structure of the face and how to draw it is essential to being able to deconstruct it and abstract it.”
Works by a variety of artists will be discussed throughout the course. Smith has taught classes and workshops on life drawing, portraiture and figurative abstraction for more than 20 years. He has been on the faculty of the Ontario College of Art and Design, The Koffler Centre for the Arts, Haliburton School of The Arts, Curry’s Art School, Visual Arts Mississauga and Neilson Park Creative Centre and conducts Master Classes in his own studio. The Portraiture Workshop takes place on Saturday and Sunday, April 26 and 27 from 9:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. at the Warkworth Town Hall Centre for the Arts.

Bringing back the bees - Native pollinators By Diane Sherman
News - Ivanhoe - Honey bees are a unique species unto themselves, the only bee to swarm and colonize. There are over 400 other species of bees in Ontario, like squash bees, so friendly they don’t sting and males can be found sleeping in wilted squash flowers. “Most bees are solitary,� says pollination biologist Susan Chan, manager of the Native Pollinators Program for Farms at Work, a non-profit stewardship group working with regional farmers and landowners on habitat plantings for pollinators. She says honey bees are the only ones to swarm and the only ones to produce a year’s worth of honey. Other species nest in the ground, in wood, hay piles, old plant stems, and, not all bees like the same plants. “Over the past 30 years a steady decline in bees worldwide has been well documented.� Chan said. “It was not really noticed until endocrinologists looked back in museum records and found a number of species disappearing.� The destruction of natural habitats and pesticides tend to be the primary causes. Chan spoke before a full house in Ivanhoe, April 3, with nearly 150 people from Belleville to Gilmour, Marmora to Tweed and places beyond and between. All those gathered at the Huntington Veteran’s Hall were interested in bringing back the bees. The presentation was co-hosted by the Hastings Stewardship Council and the Highlands of Hastings Women’s Institute. The audience consisted of cattle and crop farmers, woodlot owners, commercial and back yard gardeners. Their questions showed a wide range of interest and concern. Creating habitat for all species of bees is simpler than one may think Chan explained. “Bees don’t travel very far. Honey bees may forage up to three kilometers from their nest, bumble bees about one kilometer, solitary bees have a radius of 100 to 500 meters, so you can have a great impact on their survival with a small concentration of work.� She encourages gardeners and farmers to leave bare ground as ground nesters will return to where they came from. “Their nests are only five to six inches underground, so tilling that area should be shallow or spared.� Leaving fence lines and waste spaces, she says, is important. “These can be improved by adding choke cherries and crabapple to hedgerows, and plant a variety of flowering plants which will bloom at different times throughout the year.� Each species of bee has a different length of tongue, so they need a choice of flower species she explained. Some plants she encourages are borage, ver-
bena, mullein, sweet clover, asters, lambs ear, day lily, elderberry, honey locust and plants with pithy stems, like sumac, which should be left in natural growing areas. “A patch of lavender is good, but,� she stipulates, “plant in clusters and concentrated. As I said, bees don’t go far from home. “Vegetable gardens are wonderful for both us and the bees,� she noted. “Leaving your broccoli and parsley to go to flower when you are finished is good for a particular species, and rather than cutting and tossing out raspberry canes, bundle them and let the bees make their homes there.� Growing squash of any kind provides both nectar and a haven for the squash bee. Chan said gardeners should not be so ready to clean up at the end of the season. “Leave some things for the bees.� Chan said one of the challenges in bringing back the bees is finding “untreated seed.� Chan wrote a report on the controversial use of seeds pretreated with neonicotinoids in Ontario. “Neonicotinoids are a class of synthetic insecticides... which have a powerful neuro-toxin ... which binds to nerve receptors. They are all highly toxic to bees and aquatic invertebrates, and vary in toxicity to fish, birds, small mammals and humans.� Chan told listeners the insecticide does not go There has been a steady decline of bees worldwide over the past 30 years.
