Fire destroys Codrington-area barn; loss estimated at $300,000 By John Campbell

Brighton – A barn north of Codrington was destroyed by fire Sunday night. Firefighters arrived at the farm at 544 Goodfellow Road shortly after 6:30 p.m. April 17 and found flames shooting through the roof, Brighton Fire Chief Lloyd Hutchinson said at the scene Monday afternoon. “We had tankers from Trent Hills and Cramahe [Township] hauling water as well,” he said, estimating 35 to 38 firefighters fought the blaze. They managed to save the west end of the building as well as a quantity of seed and grain, he said. However, there were more than 300 bales of hay and straw in the barn, and firefighters were present throughout the night “hitting the hot spots,” after the fire had been subdued. Members of the local fire department were still at the scene for most of the next day. An excavator was called in Monday morning to remove the tin roof and siding, and to shift the bales around to ensure the fire was extinguished, Hutchinson said. He estimated the loss for destruction Fire destroyed a barn on Goodfellow Road April 17. Firefighters from Brighton, Trent Hills and Cramahe Township responded to the blaze. The total loss of the barn at $250,000 and another was estimated at $300,000. The cause was still under investigation Monday afternoon but Brighton Fire Chief Lloyd Hutchinson said “it’s not suspicious $50,000 for equipment inside. in any manner.” Photo by John Campbell The cause of the fire has not been

determined but “it’s not suspicious in any manner,” said Hutchinson, who’s conducting the investigation. The fire was reported by neighbours of the farm’s owners, James and Leslie Woof, who were away at the time. Their daughter, Heather Clarke, called them with the news. She was on her way to visit her mother-in-law near Warkworth Penitentiary when she saw black smoke to the south. Her “heart sank” as she knew it was probably her parents’ place, she said in an email. She immediately headed over and got there as firefighters were arriving. She called her dad, who had experienced two barn fires at his father’s farm. Her mother “was in shock” upon returning home and seeing the barn in flames. Her father drove an ATV and one of his tractors out of the barn but “he knew better than to try to go back in for either of his restored JD tractors,” Clarke said. “Thank goodness no one was hurt and that my parents no longer had livestock. We can never replace all of my dad’s personal belongings, such as his stock car trophies.” The loss of equipment, seed and fertilizer needed for this year’s crop was also a big blow.

“No one ever thinks it will happen to them, but when it does it is devastating.” James Woof, who left the dairy business in 2002 to concentrate on growing cash crops, said the barn had “minimum” insurance. He and his wife will “move on,” he said. “We’re farmers.” The couple were so impressed by how well the firefighters and others responded to the emergency, working throughout the night to contain the blaze that had spread to a nearby corn

Brighton – Residents here made their concerns clear Monday evening – they expect more from council concerning physician recruitment. Brighton’s Donald Adams was first to step to the table during the citizen comments portion of the meeting. “Brighton is in the middle of a medical desert,” he told council. And he wants something done about it, sooner rather than later. The idea that residents and seniors may soon have to travel to either Port Hope or Belleville to receive medical care or to a walk-in clinic doesn’t sit well with Adams. At last week’s planning committee meeting, a last-minute item added to the agenda was to set aside $100,000, for a physician recruitment committee, with council acting as Committee of the Whole. Mayor Mark Walas reiterated this message – that council has formed this committee and attempted to reassure residents, council is taking the “next steps” necessary and that concerns and suggestions will be further discussed. A meeting has been tentatively slated for April 27. The issue surrounding doctor recruitment has been heightened recently after Dr. Ronald Richard Twiddy officially announced his retirement. Emily Rowley called council’s response to form a physician recruitment committee, “a knee-jerk reaction,” following Adams during the citizen comments portion of council. Rowley also expressed concerns over the absence of staff and a CAO and how that may currently be impacting recruitment. Rowley recalled previous negotiations that were made with a prospective doctor, who, she says, specifically was recruited in the knowledge of the pending retirement of Dr. Twiddy. Rowley asked that Mayor Walas bring an update to the next council meeting in this regard. Adams would like to see the idea of a nurse practitioners clinic discussed further.

Stay with the Brighton Independent for a special feature on physician recruitment and a closer look at the issue in next week’s edition. In other council news: Two projects concerning renovations to the tennis courts at King Edward Park and the expansion of the existing skateboard park are now without funding. Earlier this month, staff received notification from the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF); they had been unsuccessful in their efforts to secure funding for both projects. “Without these significant funds, there’s really not a lot that can be done,” said Jim Millar, director of parks and recreation. When asked by council if essentially both projects are now “dead,” his reply Monday evening was “pretty much.” Both projects were largely to be supported by funds from the OTF. While some of the cheaper elements concerning renovations may still be possible in terms of the tennis courts, the project will not be completed as initially planned, Millar explained. The municipality was hoping for about $130,000 in funding for the tennis courts project and $125,000 in funding for the expansion of Brighton skateboard park. * A motion from Councillors John Martinello and Steven Baker on accountability and transparency was removed from the agenda. The motion recommended that all CAO and director of public works hiring activities be immediately and temporarily suspended. Coun. Martinello said the issue was resolved at last week’s meeting. * The municipality of Brighton has received the education tax rates from the Ministry of Finance and the education tax rate has decreased. The blended tax increase in Brighton in 2016 is 1.88 per cent. For an average homeowner with a home assessed at $250,000, in 2015, the impact is estimated at about $57.57 annually.

mestic dispute in Brighton resulted in an ex-partner being charged with breaching his bail conditions. Police responded to a call about a disturbance at a Trent Hills home which led to a young person being charged with committing an assault, committing an assault with a weapon, uttering threats and breaching conditions of a court order. Names were withheld. A customer at a Brighton business contacted police April 9 to report he was unhappy with the service he received. Officers told him to contact the company’s head office as it was not a police matter. Police were notified of a suspicious male spotted in a blue pickup truck on an old railway bed in Percy Ward in Trent Hills. Officers determined the man checks traps in that area on a daily basis. Police dealt with calls April 8 about a disturbance that began on a social media, one in Brighton and the other in Campbellford. In both incidents youths were involved and no charges were laid. A Campbellford mother asked police to remove her adult daughter from her home because she had cooked bacon and “stunk up the house.” Her daughter left willingly and spent the night elsewhere. Police said alcohol was a contributing factor to the call being made.

ATVs on Trent Hills roads having no impact on public safety By John Campbell Trent Hills - Allowing all-terrain vehicles on municipal roads “appears to have had little effect” on policing in Trent Hills last year, according to an analysis done by Northumberland OPP at council‘s request. And opening up public roads to ATVs “does not appear to have had any impact on public safety,” added Constable Jody Albert in a report he prepared for the period following the implementation of the bylaw June 15

to the end of November. Of the 13 occurrences involving ATVs that turned up in his search of the records, only one was related to the new bylaw, which resulted in charges for operating an ATV between dusk and dawn, a $200 fine, and having a modified exhaust system, a $150 fine. One individual was charged with several offences related to the operation of an ATV but “those charges would have been laid regardless” of the new bylaw, Albert said.

In that incident, the OPP received complaints of an ATV being driven erratically in and around Campbellford. “The driver refused to stop and fled” when approached by police but he was arrested later and charged with a halfdozen Highway Traffic Act offences. Three more charges were laid under the Off-road Vehicle Act.

ment proposed for Nappan Island took another step forward April 5 with council‘s approval of an Official Plan amendment that allows it to go ahead. The subdivision had been the subject of two public meetings, and “it was apparent” after the last one in December “that most questions and issues” raised by residents in the area “had been resolved,” director of planning Nappan Island subdivision moving Jim Peters said in a report to counforward cil recommending approval of the amendment. The 65-unit residential develop- The units will be built in two phases

on a 127-hectare (315-acre) property with shoreline frontage on Lake Seymour. The recreation-based development includes 35 hectares (87 acres) of protected lands, three access points to water and 2.1 kilometres of new roads. Thirty-four of the units will be for permanent residents. The development will be the first in North America by the owner of the property, a numbered company with international roots.

Brighton man killed after motorcycle strikes telephone pole Cramahe Township – A Brighton man was killed when he lost control of his motorcycle on County Road 2 near Townline Road April 16. Northumberland OPP said the victim Roy Windover, 71, was travelling eastbound when his motorcycle left the roadway and struck a telephone pole sometime before 7:15 p.m. Emergency Medical Services transported the man to an area hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries. Police closed the road for approximately five hours while OPP Technical Traffic Collision Investigators assisted detachment officers at the scene. The cause of the collision remains under investigation, Northumberland OPP media relations officer Constable Steve Bates said in a release.

MOTORCOACH TOURS

ATV rolls on top of operator, who’s charged with being impaired Brighton – An ATV operator suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries when the vehicle rolled over on top of him April 9 just before 6 p.m. The incident took place on private property near Evergreen Lane. The man was taken by paramedics to hospital for treatment and it was there that Northumberland OPP arrested him after conducting an investigation. Robert Harold Scott, 52 Brighton, was charged with impaired care and control of a motor vehicle and care and control of a vehicle with a blood alcohol content exceeding the legal limit. Police said in a news release that investigations into collisions involving off-road vehicles “continue to show that alcohol consumption, lack of experience, high speed, lack of hel-

met use and overall carelessness are major contributing factors in severe injuries or deaths associated with this outdoor activity.” Driving an off-road vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is an offence the same as it is with a motor vehicle or vessel, and can result in a stiff fine, a licence suspension and, possibly, even a jail term. “As we near the summer season, I would like to remind the public that the mixture of alcohol and operating ORV’s or boats can lead to devastating outcomes as we witness every season,” said Sgt. Dave Davidson of the Northumberland OPP Traffic Management Unit. “Let’s have a safe and enjoyable summer by following this common sense rule; drugs, alcohol and machinery of any kind don’t mix.”

Dark clouds come in all shapes and sizes and leave us asking where do we turn? Some of us struggle with mental health: anxiety, depression etc. Some of our struggles come from coping with tough situations in life by Self Injuring: eating disorders, suicide, self harm and drug and alcohol use. When we are surrounded by these heightened emotions and feelings life becomes one that is isolated from others and we begin to be full of questions instead of answers and we do not know what will work, or where to turn. How do we begin our journey towards hope, healing, redemption, rescue, and a restoration to wholeness? Where and when does our journey back to life begin again? As a Follower of the Way (A Christian) What about our faith? How does our faith fit into our healing journey? This talk has no cliches, no Christianese and does not put forward promises of false hope. Brett Ullman in The Walking Wounded begins to address how to walk back towards healing and away from our emotions, feelings and thoughts that are keeping us paralyzed in life. No shame, fear, or hiding is required as we are safe to journey towards healing together. There is Hope for the Walking Wounded.

OPINION

Parents are the true experts in autism funding fight

Non-linear climate emergency If you spend a lot of time talking to scientists about climate change, there’s one word you’ll hear time and time again, and yet it’s hardly ever mentioned in the public discussion of climate change. The word is “non-linear.” Most people think of global warming as Gwynne Dyer an incremental thing. It may be inexorable, but it’s also predictable. Alas, most people are wrong. The climate is a very complex system, and complex systems can change in non-linear ways. In other words, you cannot count on the average global temperature rising steadily but slowly as we pump more and more greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere. It may do that, but there may also be a sudden jump in the average global temperature that lands you in a world of hurt. That may be happening now. “We are moving into uncharted territory with frightening speed,” said Michel Jarraud, secretary-general of the World Meteorological Organisation, last November. He was referring to the fact that the warming is now accelerating in an unprecedented way. The year 2014 was the hottest ever, until 2015 beat it by a wide margin. This year may beat that record by an even wider margin. It was the hottest January ever, and then the average global temperature in February was a full fifth of a degree Celsius higher than January. That was a huge jump, since the “average global temperature” is an average of all the temperatures over the seas and the land in both the summer hemisphere and the winter hemisphere. It is normally a very stable figure, changing no more than a few hundredths of a degree from year to year. But March was not only hotter than February. It was hotter by an even wider margin than February was over January. Indeed, each of the past 11 months has beaten the highest previously recorded average temperature for that month. Some people try to explain this all away by blaming it on El Niño, a periodical rise in the ocean surface temperature in the eastern Pacific that moves the rainfall patterns around worldwide, causing droughts here and floods there. But El Niño is a LOCAL rise in temperature, it does not normally affect the average global temperature much. El Niño had not even begun when 2014 beat

all the records for average global temperature. It was a powerful influence on weather patterns for all of 2015, but climate scientists estimate that it was responsible for only 10 per cent of the record warming in that year and 2015 would still have been hotter than 2014 even if you subtracted the El Niño effect. And it was far hotter than the last big El Niño year, 1997. As for the frightening acceleration in the warming in the past three months, that has no precedent in any El Niño year, or indeed in any previous year. It could be some random shortterm fluctuation in average global temperature, but coming on top of the record warming of 2014 and 2015, it feels a lot more like part of a trend. Could this be non-linear change, an abrupt and irreversible change in the climate? Yes, and if it is, how far will it go before it stabilises again at some higher average global temperature? Nobody knows. Last year, the average global temperature reached one full degree Celsius higher than the pre-industrial average. That is halfway to the plus-two degree level which all the world’s governments have agreed we must never exceed, but at least we got to plus-one slowly, over a period of two centuries. The plus-two threshold matters because at that point the warming we have already caused will trigger natural feedbacks that we cannot control: the loss of the Arctic sea ice, the melting of the permafrost, and immense releases of carbon dioxide from the warming oceans. After plus-two, we will no longer be able to stop the warming by ending our own greenhouse gas emissions. Even at the global climate summit in Paris last December, there was still hope that we might avoid triggering the feedbacks, because the historic rate of warming would still give us about 25 years to work on cutting our emissions before we reach plus-two. But if the current nonlinear surge in warming persists, we could have covered half the remaining distance and reached plus 1.5 degrees by the end of this year. Obviously most scientists will not go this far in public, but they are very worried. As Prof. Stefan Rahmstorf of the Potsdam Institute of Climate Impact Research told The Guardian recently: “We are in a kind of climate emergency now.” I’m not a scientist, but 10 years ago I spent almost a year interviewing almost all the world’s leading climate scientists for a book I was writing. I learned that all our calculations for dealing with climate change could suddenly be swept aside by a non-linear event, and this could be it.

Brighton Independent - Thursday, April 21, 2016

Editorial - Chris Malette

There’s a time for so-called expertise and a time to listen to those affected directly by government decisions. The latest issue involving a redirection of funding for families with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder is a clear example of an opportunity for a government – in this case the Ontario government – to admit it is wrong and to do the right thing. Earlier this month, the Liberal government announced a new Ontario Autism Program with $333 million in funding, but changes include limiting Intensive Behavioural Intervention to children between two and four. Children and Youth Services Miwnister Tracy MacCharles said advice from experts was to focus on children in that developmental window. “I know it’s a transition, I know it’s challenging,” said MacCharles, whose son has special needs. “The research has said before and most recently with our clinical expert committee that the best window for IBI is those younger years, the two to four...” But, dozens of parents of autistic kids believe they know their children best and took to the streets in Belleville last Friday to protest the move by the government. Protester Mary Ellen Monk said other provinces, such as Alberta, have direct funding for families with autistic children. Her nine year old benefitted greatly from IBI treatments when it was more available, she said. “My heart goes out to the families who will miss out,” she said. As well, Lisa Anne Chatten, known to many in this community for her many and varied volunteer efforts, penned the following observation on National Autism Day, April 2. As the parent of an autistic child, Chatten knows well the challenges but also displays here the strength of character and conviction of parents who know they must provide “intense parenting” for many, many years. “When most people have children, they bank on about 18 years of intense parenting, setting them up and setting them out to the world for college, university, or the work world. Looking forward to them finding their

path and their dreams, and coming back to visit until the parents are in their 70s, then the child taking care of their parent in their golden years. Parents of children with Autism don’t share your fantasy. Intense parenting to me, means something totally different than to the rest of the world. I have to stand up for my children every single year of their school life, often having to watch them suffer over the same hurdles year after year. I have to gain the trust of the school officials, the teachers, and the support staff so that they will listen to my suggestions and not block me at the doors as I encountered with a different school. I have to gently undo emotional damage by “friends” in my son’s classroom, who beat him up for doing a job a teacher gave him. I have to predict what it was that set Aiden into a horrific screaming melt down based on information provided to me by someone who was there, so we can try to stop it from occurring tomorrow. I have to do this, every day, for the rest of their school lives... Then, when they turn 18, they will embark on a new kind of adventure, where I will be even more involved in their academics, advocating for them to be accepted into jobs that don’t generally like the idea of having to employ special needs. My parenting doesn’t get to relax at 18 years - I don’t get to pass the baton. I will be parenting Aiden until I am dead, and I will have provided alternative means of safety for him 20 years after that. Just think on that for a moment - I will be parenting 20 years after I am dead. Please, today take a moment and support Autism. It isn’t all rain, but it certainly isn’t something to take lightly. Most of us with Autistic children are stronger than we look, but we are that way because of those who so beautifully support us, and our children. Blue is my heart.” For the children of Lisa Anne Chatten and all the parents who are wringing their hands and being subjected to fear of the future for their children, the Wynne government needs to listen – truly listen – to their pleas.

LETTER TO THE EDITO May 1 BrightonLETTER walk TO THE EDITOR for palliative care Thanks

Brighton -- Community Care Northumberland is going to great lengths – up to five kilometres – to raise money for its visiting Hospice Palliative Care program. But it needs participants and pledges for its “Move for What Matters” walk that will take place May 1, starting at Memorial Park. The money collected will go toward the visiting program

that helps terminally ill clients throughout the county to live well until they die. Trained volunteers focus on dignity and individual needs while providing compassionate care and support to clients and their families, even if a client moves from place to place. The support program is offered at no cost to registered clients or their families. “Move for What Matters is

much more than just a fundraiser,” said CCN executive director Trish Baird in a news release. “This event also raises awareness that visiting Hospice Palliative Care programs are available to all residents of Northumberland County and together we can all make a difference in the lives of those who are living with a lifethreatening illness and those affected by it.”

is the “disposable” wipes, which, says wastewater consultant Jeff Graham, aren’t all that disposable. Graham says that there appears to be some confusion between flushable and biodegradable, “so there is a misleading assumption that the material will behave like toilet paper and eventually dissolve.” “The wipes may be biodegradable, but how many years it takes, we don’t know,” Graham says. Lee says the wipes collect in huge masses of between 30 and 40 lbs. around the mechanical equipment in the wastewater pollution control plant and the system has to be shut down once every couple of months, with a worker going into the lagoon in a boat to physically

remove the balls of disposable wipes. “It’s not pretty,” Graham says, and it can cause thousands of dollars in damage to the wastewater system. Surface aerators cost about $30,000 to replace. People don’t realize they’re responsible for the sewer system from inside their houses to the property line where the municipality takes over, and flushing these wipes, or household grease, feminine hygiene products, diapers and all other sorts of items that people flush down toilets, can cause the homeowners’ pipes to back up. “And it’s becoming more common all the time,” Lee says. “It’s out of sight, out of mind ... until your sewer backs up.” “And don’t get me started on garburators,” he says. “They’re the worst thing ever invented.” Garburators, in fact, are banned in some Canadian cities because they contribute so greatly to clogged sewers, especially where older infrastruc-

ture is in place. Graham says the wipe issue is a major and expensive issue affecting sewage plants across North America. The City of Toronto met with Ministry of the Environment representatives, but were told the MoE doesn’t control what goes down sewers. “In my humble opinion, this is an issue for the Ministry of Consumer Affairs – or what ever ministry governs labelling on consumer goods in Ontario – and they should be pressured to have all manufactures clearly label their packaging that their products are not to be flushed into the sewer system,” Graham says. But until the wipes are banned, Lee says people should use common sense. “What should go down the toilet and what people are putting down the toilet are two different things,” Lee says. “The normal waste from your body and toilet paper is all that should be going down.”

Campbellford – A tent, a kayak and a gun cabinet are among some of the highly sought-after items at the 31st annual Wetlands Conservation Dinner and Charity Auction for Ducks Unlimited (DU).

mained in Brighton. For 40 years, Waddling commuted frequently from Toronto to his cottage on Presqu’ile beach. Ten years ago, in semiretirement, Waddling moved back permanently to Brighton where he became vice-president of Warkworth’s Spirit of The Hills which was in the middle of producing a musical dance company, and later President of Brighton’s Arts Council. During his tenure at the Arts Council, membership increased from 17 to 200 members, and he incorporated the association. “Brighton has always been home,” says Waddling. “It has so much to offer as a port town and a steward of the environment. It is a beautiful sanctuary, and an eternal anchor for me.” For his service to the community he was made a lifetime member of Friends of Presqu’ile, having served on their board, as well as being an honorary member of The Rotary Club of Toronto since1973. And as an aside, Waddling explains why friends call his home The Rabbit’s Den: “As a kid, whenever I went on a merry-go-round, I picked the only rabbit ride. I thought I was getting the best ‘steed,’ while everyone else picked the horses. No one wanted the rabbit except me. Eventually, I started collecting rabbit souvenirs during my world travels. I have over 500 pieces, and now I even sign with a rabbit logo.” Truly, one of Brighton’s most multifaceted citizens.

A look behind the scenes of high school’s latest production By John Campbell Brighton – When Mary Poppins opens April 28 for a two-week run, it will be the culmination of several months of preparation, hard work

and rehearsals. And as with any East Northumberland Secondary School musical, there are always new challenges to surmount for those working behind the scenes who have earned a reputation for staging productions that delight local audiences. For head carpenter Jim Moore, it’s “the largest set we’ve ever built” – three levels with a revolving middle that provides the appropriate backdrop for a variety of scenes. Working from a model fabricated by artistic director Angie Young, Moore and his crew began work on the set last September. “I’m in here at least four days a week, including evenings,” said

Brighton Relay for Life will again be held overnight By John Campbell Brighton – Brighton Relay for Life is going back to being an overnight event. Last year it switched to a noontime start and a midnight ending but Karen White, chair of the organizing committee, said team captains and committee members said they wanted the Relay to return to its 7 p.m. start. So it will when it takes place June 3/4 outdoors at the King Edward Community Centre. “I was surprised how many people wanted to go back to a nighttime event,” White said, but it is “much more indicative of what a

cancer patient goes through ... It’s not easy for them so we don’t want to make it easy for us either. We want to struggle right along with them.” And, she added, experience the arrival of daylight in the same way that cancer patients welcome the dawn of a new day in their lives after treatments have ended. This year’s goal is $45,000, the same amount that was raised in 2015 by the 18 teams and approximately 160 members. About 65 cancer survivors took part but White said they hope to see more out this year, “because that’s what it’s all about. The more funds we raise, the better our re-

search, the better our treatment, and the more survivors we have.” At the Relay Rally held April 12, those who turned out were given sunflower seeds and a pot with soil as a reminder of the theme chosen for this year’s local fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society. It’s “Help Us Grow Our Event,” White said, such as creating a new team, bringing in another cancer survivor or buying an additional luminary, she said. The Canadian Cancer Society is again advocating the Ontario government to follow the lead of other provinces and fund chemotherapy treatments in the form of pills that can be taken at home. It spares a patient having to sit for hours in a hospital having the drug administered intravenously. Without government funding, the cost to the patient is $70,000 for a five-week period, but if the province were to assume the expense, “the cost-saving for the health

ministry will be huge,” White said. Until then, cancer patients will “have to bankrupt themselves to get the chemo treatment if they choose to take it soho’s in pill form.” The Rotary Club of Brighton is again the sponsor for the Presents the comedy luminaries and for the second

year in a row Henderson Developments is the event sponsor, with a donation of $2,000. “Brighton has been so, so supportive,” White said. Teams can register online for the Brighton Relay for Life by going to www.convio.cancer.ca and following the links, or by attending the Information Night that will be held May 17 at the community centre. The registration fee is $15 person although the “suggested goal” for each team member is $150.

There has been lots of research recently in medical and dental scientific journals about the effects of having a healthy mouth as well as those of having an unhealthy mouth. Your mouth is the gateway Dr. Brian Ho to the rest of your body. If your mouth is full of infections, the latest medical research has been showing that it affects the rest of your body quite significantly. If you suffer from diabetes, heart disease, and many other common ailments, the gum disease that is present in your mouth has the potential to contribute in a negative way to these medical conditions. You might be asking how this may be. Think of it this way: your body is a system that is constantly trying to heal itself. If you have a condition like heart disease, and your body has to use some of its valuable resources to combat your gum disease, it makes it that much harder for your body to take care of the heart. Also, if you suffer from gum infections in your mouth from periodontal disease, every time you eat and chew, bad bacteria are released that can directly affect things like your arteries and your heart valves. If you are pregnant, the constant stream of bad bacteria that may be in your mouth from infections can certainly affect an unborn child. Given that periodontal or gum disease has many negative effects, one would assume that it is easily detectable. Surprisingly enough, many people with periodontal disease are unaware that their mouths are burdened with this condition. Let’s take a moment to highlight some of the tell-tale signs of periodontal (gum) disease: bleeding of the gums when you brush or eat, loose teeth, bad breath, little gum pockets around your teeth that are swollen, and pain upon chewing. These are just some of the signs that you may have significant gum disease. Call your dentist and make an appointment to assess your gums so that you can keep your mouth and yourself healthy. Dr. Brian Ho is a practicing general dentist in Trenton, Ontario. He can be reached at Trenton Family Dental, 613.394.3883.

G-Hawks beat Raiders 2-0 in Game 3 of Buckland series By Erin Stewart Trenton – Daniel Urbani again showed why he is the top goalie in the Ontario Junior Hockey League, shutting out the Georgetown Raiders on home ice to put the G-Hawks up 2-1 in the series. The Trenton Golden Hawks beat the Georgetown Raiders 2-0 at home on Mon. April 18, with both Trenton goals scored by Mitch Emerson. Going into Wednesday night’s match in Georgetown, the Hawks led the bestof-seven Buckland Cup Championship series 2-1 and hit the road for Game 4 in Georgetown. The result came after our press deadline. Emerson scored the team’s first goal on the power play 17 minutes into the second period and again with only two seconds left in the third period on the open net after Georgetown pulled their goalie. Hunter Fargey assisted Emerson’s first goal. Trenton was helped by excellent goaltending from Urbani who turned in a shutout with 28 saves, making a flurry of spectacular saves in the tense final minutes of the game. Georgetown’s goaltender Andrew Masters stopped 21 out of the 22 shots he faced. The G-Hawks incurred 10 minutes in penalty time while the Raiders tallied 12 minutes. “It’s not easy to win these championship games, we’ve got to battle for everything we get, but we did just that tonight,” said G-Hawks coach Jerome

Dupont. “Our overall game was better, we were a little more aggressive and obviously we’ve got good goaltending and Mitch Emerson was a big part of our success.” Emerson said it’s a good bounceback for the Hawks, coming out of a disappointing double overtime loss in Georgetown. “We managed to stay out of the box tonight which was key for us,” Emerson said. “We played a good defensive game and shut down a good offensive team.” Urbani, named the Ontario junior Hockey League’s best goaltender of the year, said the Hawks played a great team effort and the team is getting back to playing their style of hockey again. “I think the first couple of games, we kind of strayed off of that and then tonight we played a strong defensive effort,” said Urbani. “I think that’s Golden Hawks hockey and that’s what we need to keep doing.” The Hawks will be back in Trenton for game 5 on Fri. April 22. Tickets for game 5 in Trenton will go on sale on Thurs. April 21, at the Trenton arena. Season ticket holders can grab their tickets on Thursday from 9 a.m. to noon and then the tickets will go on sale for the general public from noon until 8 p.m. If necessary, game 6 will be played Sat.

Quinte Trash Bash returns April 23 By Stephen Petrick

Belleville – Roll up your sleeves and get ready for a trash bash Belleville. The Quinte Trash Bash returns to town on Saturday, April 23. The annual spring clean up event asks citizens to come out and remove trash from public spaces. It involves a friendly competition with two neighboring communities, Quinte West and Tyendinaga Township, as residents of those communities also participate to see which community can remove the most litter

What’s great about the event, said Becky MacWhirter, Belleville’s green co-ordinator and public education officer, is that it showcases the incredible goodwill of people and the pride they have for their communities. Picking up garbage may be a dirty job, but every year there’s no shortage of people willing to do it. “I think it’s a real reflection of people’s commitment to the community,” she said. “It’s something everyone can do; every one can take part in it. This is a great way for people to connect with their neighbours.”

Belleville residents can visit Market Square, Quinte Secondary School or Cascade Park to pick up supplies, such as garbage bags, as early as 9 a.m. The trash they collect can be placed in garbage and recycling dumpsters provided by the city at the fairgrounds, at Bridge and Sidney streets. The event runs until 2 p.m. People are encouraged to register in advance at www.quintetrashbash.ca, so organizers can get a sense of how many people to expect. When they pick up supplies they can also tell organizers where they intend to work, so organizers get a sense of what areas of the city are being cleaned and where work remains to be done. MacWhirter said in the days leading up to the event organizers will be taking note of areas of the city where there is a lot of trash and taking photos of those areas to post to the event’s Facebook page, so participants can learn about ideal places to visit. If history is any indication, a whole lot of trash will be removed on the day. Last year, 1,864 people registered to participate in the bash between the three communities. Just over 1,000 of those participants were from Belleville.

The communities combined to fill eight dumpsters worth of garbage, MacWhirter said. She added that the success of the event shows that Belleville citizens “have a real sense around the litter issue. This is something people can take responsibility for.” She also noted the event is a nice example of everyday citizens working with municipal staff, who ensure that supplies are provided and garbage is collected and removed. “It’s a nice way for the city to work together with citizens,” she said.

Albert College field gets new name Belleville - It’s long been a prime location for a sports field, but it was in terrible shape – even canting off to one end of the pitch by several feet. But, all that changed with a refit and a new name for Albert College’s playing field. The sports field on Albert College’s main campus located at the corner of Dundas Street West and Sidney Street was named “McCullough Field” at a special dedication ceremony on Saturday, April 16. The main sports field was a major part of the school’s site redevelopment project in the summer of 2015. The field was named in honour of a past student and loyal Albert College supporter, Donald McCullough. A graduate of Albert College in 1947, McCullough attended the school for six years as a boarding student from Kingston. Affectionately

known as “Mic”, a nickname he received from a classmate while a student at Albert College, McCullough was on hand Saturday. “Mr. McCullough is a proud Albert College alumnus and a loyal supporter of the school,” says Head of School, Keith Stansfield, during the dedication ceremony. “In recognition of his lifetime commitment to the school, Albert College is pleased to dedicate our sports field in his honour.” Mic attended Albert College over 60 years ago but remembers his time at the school like it was yesterday. He took to life at Albert in every way, learning the ropes academically, athletically and socially, eventually earning top honours in the classroom and on the field. Mic was surrounded by many of his former classmates on Saturday, as the school celebrated a reunion for classes of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s last weekend, as Grade 12 student, Aysar Younes, Head of School, Keith Stansfield, MPP, Todd Smith, Belleville Mayor, Taso Christopher, guest of honour, Donald “Mic” McCullough, Director of Athletics, Daryl Radford, Albert College’s Athletic Mascot, Paws, and Past Chair of the Board of Governors, Eric LeBlanc.

well. Also in attendance to celebrate the occasion was Belleville Mayor, Taso Christopher, who spoke at the ceremony thanking the McCullough family and Albert College. “We know academics is under tremendous pressure across the province and across the nation, but Albert College has become one of the most popular and recognized academic schools in the country. It is

an honour to have Albert College as our partner in the community. It gives me nothing but joy to be a part of an event like this on a day like this.” MPP Todd Smith, addressed the crowd by saying, “this is a special school not just in the city of Belleville but in the country of Canada and certainly in our province of Ontario. Coming over the Norris Whitney Bridge from Prince Edward County into Belleville, the city looks so beautiful from the top of that bridge and one of the reasons why it looks so beautiful is because of Albert College.” Students for years to come will benefit from the great work that has been FACTORY OUTLET STORE OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK! done to redevelop the sports field.

It’s ‘Beer Month’ in Leuven, Belgium By John M. Smith I often connect beer festivals with the fall of the year, for that’s when the traditional “Octoberfest” festivities occur. However, Leuven, Belgium, which is often referred to as “the beer capital of the world”, holds its major beer festivals in the spring, and this year’s so-called “beer month” begins on Apr. 22 and ends on May 22. A number of special events take place during this special time, including beer tastings and brewery tours, and a great many beer aficionados will certainly attend. It’s even possible to participate in special workshops where you’ll learn about proper cheese and beer pairings or beer and Belgian chocolate pairings. How delectable! You could also sign up for a brewery bike tour, in which you’d cycle to a nearby micro brewery and then taste the house beers – or choose to participate in a beer golf event in which a beer is served after every hole. The biggest event of all, however, is Leuven’s annual “Zythos Beer Festival”, which takes place this year on the opening weekend, April 22 & 23; after all, it’s said to be “the largest beer tasting festival of its kind in Europe”, and more than 100 Belgian brewers will showcase about

500 types of beer in one place, the Brabanthal (a large hall and exhibition centre). A free shuttle service will conveniently take you there and back, so you don’t have to worry about drinking and driving. The word “Zythos” is an ancient Greek word for “beer”, so it’s an appropriate choice for a festival that strives to educate the public about beer. While at the festival itself, you can rent a tasting glass and purchase a few tokens; then exchange these tokens at the various beer stands to sample the products. Another popular event during “beer month” is the smaller, more intimate “Leuven Innovation Beer Festival”, which will take place this year on May 15 & 16. This particular event takes place in De Hoorn, the unique and historic old beer hall of Stella Artois, and it’s a platform for craft breweries from all over the world. Visitors can taste the innovative beers and learn about the ingredients, the techniques used, the actual production, the packaging, and perhaps even the origin of a recipe. Leuven may have been given its renowned beer reputation simply because it was home to more than 30 active breweries in the early part of the 20th century. It has also been home to Stella Artois since 1926, and is now the headquarters of the larg-

est brewing company in the world, AB InBev. It’s estimated that this one company has about 30% of the world market – and in addition to Stella Artois, its brands include such well known names as Busch, Beck’s, Budweiser, Lowenbrau, Michelob, Alexander Keith’s, Kokanee, Lakeport, and Labatt. When I visited Leuven, I took a tour of its largest brewery, and I was very impressed by both the size and cleanliness of this operation. Johann was my personal guide in the Stella Brewery, and we first visited its ‘kitchen’, where the ‘cooking’ takes place in large vats that hold 65,000 litres of brew each. We then proceeded to the fermentation, filtration, and bottling sections. I was amazed that there were not a lot of assembly line workers, for most of this process was automated, with the workers actually sitting in a control room, monitoring the activities. I was also struck by the sheer quantity being produced, for I was told that the automated assembly line can put out 150,000 cans and 200,000 bottles per hour! Green bottles were used for the export market and brown bottles were for domestic sales. As I watched this assembly line, I noticed that certain cans were automatically being discarded as they moved along, and Johann explained that “everything is weighed at certain intervals, so if there’s a small leak in a can, that beer won’t weigh the proper amount – and will be thrown off the line and discarded”.

Odds & Sods 3

By Dan Clost O&S 1 FROST What a lovely warm week it was, Gentle Reader. This past Saturday, I joined everyone else in the neighbourhood spending a bustling day working in the yard. The sun was warm, the breeze was warm but there was still a hint of cold in the air. In some areas of the yard a few hyacinth were in bloom- ahead of the daffodils!- but in shadier spots all there was to be seen was a few tips just poking through

the leaf litter. The forsythia were budded out but not open, deciduous azaleas and rhododendrons hadn’t cracked open either. In other words, we have a normal spring occurring in a normal fashion. The upcoming forecast is rain on Monday, a bit cool overnight Monday, and then a continuing warm-up culminating in temps in the high teens for Thursday - which should be when you’re reading this. In short, what a perfect lead-in to another gardening weekend. A condition not unnoticed by the garden centres and nurseries are chocka-block with colourful pansies and other spring blooms. So, GR, it is incumbent upon me, a garden writer, to suggest you “Whoa-up there, buckaroo!” Check the various weather stations and almanacs for last frost dates in your area. Last frost refers to a killing frost; one that will turn many a prematurely planted annual into black mush. You folks up in the Coe Hill area don’t need any cautions from a southerner like me; heck, you’re all probably still flooding the back yard rink. However, sometimes we

urbanites lose the “feel” of the weather and our impatience gets the better of our impatiens. Last frost dates for those of you living west of Brighton and south of Bloomfield- 30 April; for Trenton Belleville and up to Campbellford – 10 May. There is an anomalous pocket just south and west of Peterborough, near Fraserville- positively arctic with a possible last frost date of 30 May. If you must purchase tender annuals, don’t plant them for a while. If you have planted them, have some old blankets for covering them up during the cold nights. The thing to remember here is that you don’t remove the blankets until you feel the warmth of the sun in the morning. Otherwise the cold air sitting on top of the blanket at 0700 hrs will simply settle down on the plant and wreak its havoc. If everything goes awry, take a deep breath, realize that they are just plants and carry on. O&S#2 Pouffing Our lawn was nice and dry so a good raking was in order. I use a run-of-the-mill lawn rake, with the “soft” metal tines: I have

coined a new horticultural term for this method of early spring raking, “pouffing.” I try not to do this until I see that the lawn is greening up, which means the roots are active which, in turn, means they’re anchored in. Pouffing is simply giving the rake a slight bounce instead of a pull so that the action is more vertical than horizontal. Dead bits will come up with the tines and the green bits have minimal stress placed on them. I like to rake a patch moving in one direction and then redoing it at a 90deg angle. When you’re finished you might think that there is a lot of bare ground and you might be right. But here’s the good thing, grass is a cool season plant so it will fill in those spaces more quickly than any weed at this time. However, if you’re not using corn gluten at twice the suggested application rate, now is a good time for overseeding. O&S#3 Lawn Weeds This is the perfect time to winkle out dandelions, thistle, knotweed, etc. because they’re easy to see. And, if you’re busy doing that, you’re not planting annuals before their time.

Cohen tribute a huge success

By Jack Evans

Two sold-out shows greeted a Kingston-based musical ensemble as they performed a “Tribute to Leonard Cohen” in the small but mighty Roy Bonisteel Church Theatre Sunday. The concert was presented as a matinee in the afternoon and an evening show. Veteran Kingston entertained Roger James, in a Cohen style hat, sat in one corner of the stage, narrating by reading selections from Cohen’s extensive poetic works, interspersed with a generous selections of the famous Canadian’s songs. They included the current hit, “Hallelujah,” belted out by lead singer Tracie Morgan, who was assisted on vocals by Christina Tracey. Others included “Tower of Song,” “No Diamonds in the Mine,””Gentle This Soul,””It’s Closing Time” and “Just Passing Through.” A surprise encore at the close started with a slow, thumping beat on the keyboard by Spencer Evans, steadily increasing in pace, quickly picked up by drummer Stu Pike and then Adam Hodge on bass guitar. Evans then grabbed his clarinet and broke out into a wild Jewish klezmer piece, received by the audience with wild applause. A bar well stocked with local wines and craft beers added to the conviviality of the evening.

DEATH NOTICE

ALTHOUSE, Elda Viola Pearl It is with overwhelming sadness that we announce the passing of our mother Elda Viola Pearl Althouse (nee Derrett). Elda passed away peacefully at her home on Friday, April 15th in her 85th year after a very courageous battle with cancer. Elda was the beloved wife of the late Donald Ray Althouse for 65 years. She will be dearly missed by her children Bill Althouse (Sandy), Ann Smith (Ken), Wayne Althouse (Cherlee) and Marilyn Clark (Tom) and lovingly remembered by her grandchildren Mark (Christine), Laurie (Ryan), Dillon (Sam), Devon (Rebecca), Candace, Scott, Crystal, Sabrina, Aaron, Travis, Ryan, Kristopher and Kristen. She was blessed with 18 great grandchildren and 3 great great grandchildren. She will also be lovingly remembered by her sister Blanche Towes and brothers Don Wood, Jim Derrett, Clarence Derrett, George Derrett, Don Derrett and Ken Derrett. Elda was actively involved in Havelock, where she enjoyed the Ladies Orange Lodge, the Dorcas Rebekah Lodge, and the TOPS Club where she achieved ‘Queen’ status. She took great pride and joy in assisting others in their time of need as a Health Care Aide and actively attended many Karaoke events and church luncheons. She thoroughly enjoyed her musical family, camping and travelling extensively throughout her lifetime with her husband Don, to Country Jamborees across Ontario. Family and friends may gather at HAVELOCK UNITED CHURCH (corner of Ontario St. and Union St.) from 1-3pm on Saturday, April 23rd, 2016 for visitation, with a service following at 3pm officiated by the wonderful Reverend David Estabrooks.

A railroad is hiding in the Actinolite bush

By Brett Mann

Actinolite – A lost or adventuring visitor exploring a long windy dirt road in the bush north of Highway 7, might well stare in disbelief if they happened upon the property of Lesley Bernard. On a picturesque bend in the Skootamata River, she and her partner Paul McCluggage have created an outof-the-way monument to Canada’s railway past. Bernard who is originally from Toronto, and whose father is a train enthusiast, has constructed a full-scale replica train station using original plans from the Canadian Northern Railway, complete with three full-size railway cars and a caboose. When Bernard acquired the property in 1994, it was just forest. Explaining her attraction to the railway, she remarks, “Dad’s been a long-time train fan. I kind of grew up with it.” The couple lived in the rail cars from 2004 to 2011. “The rail cars came in first. The first one came in ‘97.” They used the car as a summer camp, “and in the winter too. That was an adventure. We started building the station in 2008. We moved in, in 2011 and it’s still not finished. We’ve still got trim and paint.” “Canadian Northern was one of the last railways to get going, and MacKenzie and Mann [Sir William MacKenzie and Sir Donald Mann] hired an architect and said that we want to have a whole series of stations that are all based on the same theme, so that if you’re out on the train, and you’re stopping at one of their stations, you know you’re on Canadian Northern. A guy named Pratt was the actual architect. I think it’s the most classic of the railway stations. It’s sort of the ‘prairie style’ with the big over-

hangs and the brackets. And lots of roof plane changes. … this is probably vintage 1910 design, I would think.” Plans for the station were found in a book on model railways. “There’s no reason you can’t build it full scale of course,” she observes. Bernard is an electrician by trade and notes that she inherited her father’s model train collection, proudly showing off

some finely detailed railroad cars made by a Toronto friend, Jason Shron, “a stickler for detail.” Beside the station/home sit two full-sized rail cars, a sleeper and a dining car, as well as a caboose resting on 400 feet of track. “The caboose needs rebuilding. We installed the track by rolling, tipping, levering, whatever we had to do.” One of the cars came from Trenton from the “now defunct”

Prince Edward County Railway and the other from VIA in Toronto. The caboose came from “a farmer’s field in Aurora.” Asked about the cost of used railway cars, Bernard replies that they are “cheap to buy but expensive to move.” The steel “trucks” or wheels weighing 15 tons had to be removed and replaced with wheel dollies for highway transit. A

book of photos documents the task of moving the cars into their present location in the woods. Bernard and McCluggage have no plans to construct a tourist attraction, “but we do get the odd person dropping in,” she says. Contemplating the project she’s taken on, Bernard allows, “It seems a bit much at times. Maybe I should have had less grandiose plans.”

Séan McCann wows fans at Stirling Festival Theatre By Terry McNamee Stirling—It was a magical night for fans of the Newfoundland group Great Big Sea and of Celtic and Newfoundland music as singer/musician Séan McCann performed live at the Stirling Festival Theatre on Wednesday, April 13. Performing with only a couple of guitars and a bodhran for accompaniment, McCann won over everyone with his easy, laid-back renditions of popular songs made famous by the group he help found some 20 years ago. Although he and the band went their separate ways in December of 20

Section B - Thursday, April 21, 2016

2013, the music remains alive, and McCann has continued to write new music. He won the crowd over with his very first song, sung without instrument or microphone, and had the audience enthralled for the rest of the show with such numbers as Ordinary Day and Good People. He also talked about his years of alcoholism while with the band, and his four years of sobriety. Music, he said, is healing, and love and music combined make the world a better place for everyone. The Stirling Festival Theatre has many shows coming up this spring.

This coming Friday, April 22, at 2 and 8 p.m., features The Elvis Show starring Garry Wesley and featuring Elaine Wesley as Patsy Cline. On Friday, April 29, Night Fever — An Evening of the BeeGees, features an all-Canadian cast. Both shows include performances at 2 and 8 p.m. On A First Name Basis starring Norm Foster will be at the Theatre every day from May 4-8 with matinee and evening performances.

Meet Ken Capstick, a bartending hospital volunteer hero By Stephen Petrick

Belleville – Ken Capstick works behind a bar in a well-known Belleville location. His familiar face and smiling presence cheers up some of the regulars who can be found there. “I’ll say ‘the bar is open, what would you like?’ Some say, ‘I’d like a margarita,’” Capstick said with a chuckle. He can’t make those, because it’s not that kind of bar. Capstick works as a volunteer at Belleville General Hospital, often manning a bar at the Aroma Café in the new Sills wing and working with patients who’ve visited the oncology department. He’s one of 243 members of the BGH Auxiliary. These and other volunteers accounted for 32,475 hours of service in the hospital in 2015. In fact, volunteers between Quinte Health Care’s four hospitals accounted for about 110,000 hours in 2015; providing work that makes hospitals a more friendly and comfortable environment. The work of those volunteers was noted last week, as April 10 to 16 was recognized as National Volunteer Week. Capstick realizes the work he does, especially with oncology patients, may be simple, but it makes the hospital have a more friendly environment. He’ll chat with guests in oncology, offer to get them coffee or juice, and answer any questions about how to get around the hospital. It reduces the stress felt by patients, who are likely already going through a challenging health scare. And for Capstick, the work gives

him an uplifting feeling. “I think everyone, when they retire, should do work as a volunteer,” the 80-year-old said. “Otherwise you just lay around the house. It gets you up in the morning and you feel better about yourself.” Capstick retired about 16 years ago from a working career spent in a few different professions. He was a Warrant Officer in the Canadian Forces for several years. He began volunteering for BGH about six years ago, not long after he had to visit the oncology department for blood treatments for himself. He noticed there were many volunteers working in the hospital who did an excellent job, so he decided to join the team himself. He also noted the vast majority of volunteers were women and he thought it would be nice if the auxiliary had more men. In time he’d learn he wasn’t alone in that opinion as the auxiliary, to this day, is encouraging more men to sign up. Capstick doesn’t hesitate to recommend volunteering at the hospital to any interested person. He said, there are so many different areas people can work in that “really, there’s something for everybody.” In fact, hospital volunteers can volunteer in 22 different service areas, said Catherine Walker, a spokesperson for Quinte Health Care. She said the work hospital volunteers provide is incredibly valuable and the contributions they make to the hospital are hard to put into words or track on paper. The 110,000 hours figure, she explained, is really a conservative estimate, because volun-

teers put in a lot of time and effort that’s hard to track. Plus, she said, they help QHC officials make decision on how to provide service, as they’re so aware of what’s going on in the hospital that the information they provide staff is valuable. “They step in with a different perspective,” she said. “It enriches our opportunity to do bet-

ter.” But Capstick does it first and foremost to meet people and contribute to his community. “It gets you out more and you meet a lot of people,” he said. “It’s good for your health.” People interesting in volunteer opportunities with QCH can visit www.qhc.on.ca to find more information.

Sledge hockey clinic coming to Sports Centre Sunday

Belleville – It’s described as hockey from a new angle. Sports lovers are encouraged to come out to free sledge hockey clinic at the Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre on Sunday, April 14. The event runs from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the Family Dental Centre arena. Sledges and sticks will be provided, but participants are encouraged to bring their own helmet and gloves. Sledge hockey is a popular Paralympic sport that looks essentially the same as hockey, only the players move on a sled low to the ice surface. The event will include Brad Bowden, a Canadian sledge hockey and former Canadian wheelchair basketball player. Bowden lives with sacral agenesis. He began playing sledge hockey in 1997 at aged 13, for the Kitchener Sidewinders. At the age of 15, he was selected for Canada’s national team. In 2003, he was named to the men’s national wheelchair basketball team, which eventually won gold in the 2004 summer Paralympic games. In 2006, he helped Canada’s sledge hockey team win Paralympic gold. Brad also collected the winning goal in Sochi, at the 2014 Paralympic Games to earn a bronze medal with the Canadian sledge hockey team. He is one of the few Paralympic athletes to win both a Paralympic gold medal in both the summer and winter games. The event is being put on by Adaptive Sports Opportunities Quinte/Belleville, a new Facebook group that aims to provide resource for individuals with exceptionalities and to find
