Entertainment - Brighton Music night, held last week at East Northumberland Secondary School, struck a high note with a full-house audience. The evening featured a smorgasbord of song, everything from the Jackson Five to light jazz. One highlight for the local high school music program was noted by the event MC. It came in February, when the ENSS Concert Band performed at the 12th annual Ontario Band Association Festival at Toronto. The Brighton group were presented with a “Rising Star Award,” described by festival adjudicators, which included university music educators from across North America, as one that “recognizes a fine ensemble with great potential.” Only 25 of the more than 250 bands attending the festival received the accolade. The ENSS Concert Band is

Ombudsman a hot topic at Brighton Council By Ray Yurkowski
News - Brighton - The Ontario Ombudsman and Local Authority Services (LAS) were on the agenda last week at the municipal council meeting, as the topic of five separate motions. For those keeping score: two were approved, one withdrawn and two deferred. It started with a proposal from Councillor Tom Rittwage and Deputy-mayor Mike Vandertoorn, inviting Ontario Ombudsman Andre Marin to speak to council about the services his office provides and the implications of Bill 179. “Folks should understand that the only authority the Ombudsman currently has over any municipality is investigations when it comes to closed meetings,” said Rittwage. “There has

been lots of discussion about why we are with LAS and why we wasted $300 when we could get a service for free. We went with something we’ve used in the past and there wasn’t a whole lot of discussion around the table about moving in another direction.” In fact, the LAS annual retainer is $330 but underscoring that is another statistic—there have been no closed-meeting investigations throughout the current term of council. The provincial government tabled Bill 179, the Public Sector and MPP Accountability and Transparency Act, 2014, in March, proposing several measures aimed at more open government. If passed, the bill and accompanying amendments to the Ombudsman Act would

Events - The Lions Club of Brighton will host its first annual Lions Purina Walk for Dog Guides on Saturday, May 24. The walk will start and end at Memory Junction Museum, at the south end of Maplewood Ave. Registration of walkers starts at 8:15 a.m. and the walk starts at 9 a.m. The route will be once (2.2 km) or twice around (4.4 km) the course. Walkers will start from Memory Junction Museum and walk north on Maplewood Ave., east on Main St., south on Prince Edward St. & west on Richardson St. to Maplewood. All proceeds raised by walkers will go to the Lions Foundation of Canada (L.F.C.) and will be used to breed, raise, train and pair Dog Guides with clients in need of one of their Dog Guides. L.F.C. receives no government assistance from any level. All funds come from members of the Lions family, friends of Lionism and corporations who share our vision. The foundation provides dog guides to clients in one of six programs, at no cost to the clients. The programs are Canine Vision, Hearing Ear, Service, Seizure Response, Autism Assistance and Diabetic Alert. Canine Vision Dog Guides work with blind and visually impaired people. Hearing Ear Dog Guides work with deaf and hard of hearing people. Service Dog Guides fetch dropped items, open and close doors, take items from the fridge or dryer, help clients into and out of bed and more. Seizure Response Dog Guides help people with epilepsy by recognizing and responding to the onset of seizures by barking and activating an alert system. Autism Assistance Dog Guides are trained to help children with autism by providing calming relief and increasing independence, safety and social interaction. Diabetic Alert Dog Guides help people with type 1 diabetes with hypoglycemic unawareness by alerting them to dangerous drops in their blood sugar levels. People wanting to join us in the walk may find sponsor forms in several businesses around the municipality. Please come out and help the Lions to raise money to help to shorten waiting lists for these incredible dog guides. For further information call 613-475-1413 and ask for Lion Harvey Moore. For electronic donations, please go to www.purinawalkfordogguides.com and find Brighton.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
A bridge too far out Dear Editor, “There’s a sucker born every minute.” P.T. Barnum I went to the meeting on replacing the bridge over the Murray Canal the other night. The meeting was called by our local Member of Parliament backed up by two senior silly servants. All sounded like graduates of the P.T. Barnum School of Economics. It sounded like these three people had escaped from the Ottawa bubble and came here to mouth
speaking notes written by the boys in short pants in the party’s back rooms. First let me explain the Ottawa bubble. The city of Ottawa is surrounded by a green belt. It’s my opinion that this green belt sucks a lot of the oxygen out of the atmosphere causing people who live and work in Ottawa not to think rationally. (I know. I have in-laws living there.) The lack of oxygen causes a lot of dead brain cells and these dead brain cells
rise up and form an invisible film over the city. Anyway, these three people were given a day pass to come to our fair city and to tell me and about 200 other people at City Hall what they were going to allow us to have for a bridge over the Murray Canal. Much money has already been spent on the processing of their plan, and they want to start letting contracts in the next eight weeks, so we better do as they say. We

were constantly cautioned that any delay may lead to unsafe conditions on the present bridge and, horror of horrors, if we don’t use the money soon we may lose it. When we protested that we were not aware of the project until just now, our local MP said, “of course you did . . . I signed off on the press release.” Anyway, he tried to convince us that although they were replacing our two-lane bridge with a one lane bridge and traffic lights,
they were replacing the bridge in kind. “It’s exactly the same size as you already have,” he said. “Unfortunately the code has changed over the years and now the bridge is not wide enough for two lanes.” That of course brought out a lot of not so nice comments from the audience, and the MP, used to being nothing more than a bobble-head doll sitting and smiling behind the members of the front bench in the House of Commons became haughty and
Provincial court to stay in Brighton By Ray Yurkowski

five years and has requested two further options to extend the term for five years each, based on market rates and six months prior notice,” said municipal finance director Linda Widdifield, in her report. “Additionally, municipal staff has requested a relocation clause to be inserted into each agreement in the event the landlord elects to renovate the building.” Why the delay in the new agreement? “It’s been a year and a half of negotiating with Infrastructure Ontario,” explained Widdifield. “They wanted an extension of two five-year terms but they didn’t have a clause in the agreement that would allow us to do any renovations in the building. Now, we finally have that.” The terms of payment were established by adding the Consumer Price Index for the prior five years and to the current agreement. From 2007 to 2011, the CPI increased by 9.5 per cent. The courtroom and offices are used are used 85 days per year and execution of the leases will increase the annual municipal revenue by $2,500.

the meeting deteriorated from that point on. After deigning to listen to a number of questions and promising to give them some thought, the meeting came to an end and they headed back to bubble city. And we were left wondering what is really going to happen with our bridge. One last thought. I didn’t know that P.T. Barnum was a politician. Bob Larocque, Brighton

OPINION
Connected to your community
Donetsk is not Sarajevo
Gwynne Dyer
Editorial - With due apologies to God, Voltaire and the Ukrainians, I must point out that if Ukraine did not exist, it would not be necessary to invent it. It is not a great power, it has no resources the world cannot do without, and it is not a “vital strategic interest” to anybody except the Ukrainians themselves. Not even to the Russians, although they are acting at the moment as though it were.
Bosnia was nobody’s vital strategic interest either. It isn’t now, and it wasn’t a hundred years ago. But Bismarck warned in 1898 that if there was ever another major war in Europe, it would come out of “some damned silly thing in the Balkans,” and an assassination in Sarajevo in 1914 fulfilled his prophecy to the letter. Some things have changed since then, however. The next world war will not come out of Ukraine (which is only slightly north-east of the Balkans) no matter what happens in the next few weeks and months. Russia might invade Ukraine, there might even be a new Cold War for a while, but there will be no fighting in Europe beyond Ukraine’s borders. Indeed, apart from the Balkans there has been no full-scale war in Europe for the past 69 years, and there was never the slightest risk that the fighting in the 1990s would spread beyond the borders of former Yugoslavia. Indeed, there was probably never a single day during the 45 years of the Cold War when either side seriously considered attacking the other. The reason was simple: they knew what would happen next, even if neither side used the thousands of nuclear weapons at its disposal. Twice in thirty years, in 1914-18 and 1939-45, a major war using modern weapons had been fought over almost all of Europe’s territory. On the first occasion, they lost a generation of young men. The second time, most countries from Germany eastwards lost around ten percent of their populations and most of the casualties that time were civilians. Half of the continent’s
By Terry Bush
great historic cities were reduced to ruins even without the help of nuclear weapons. It was a very expensive education, but the Europeans did finally learn their lesson: don’t do this any more. That is why, even as Russian tanks drive right up to Ukraine’s eastern borders and the Ukrainian army prepares to die in a fight it knows it would lose, nobody else in Europe is getting ready for war. If the Russians want part or all of Ukraine, they can have it and pay the long-term price for taking it, which would be very high. But nothing in Europe is worth blowing all of Europe up for. Do not be alarmed by the fact that troops and planes from as far away as the United States and Canada are currently being sent to NATO countries that have borders with Russia. The numbers are militarily insignificant. Their purpose is simply to remind the Russians that the alliance will protect its own members should Moscow ever decide that it has also a right to “protect” Russian-speakers in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. Moscow does not actually need to be reminded of that. It has seized Crimea, and is toying with the idea of seizing more of Ukraine, precisely because that country does not fall under the NATO umbrella. And it does not belong to NATO because NATO didn’t want to take military responsibility for its defence. The collapse of the status quo is partly the European Union’s fault, for demanding that Ukraine choose between closer trade and travel ties with the EU and full membership in Russia’s proposed “Eurasian Union”. It is even more the fault of Moscow: President Vladimir Putin has been both emotional and opportunistic. He’s scaring people, which is never a good idea. But if he does take more or even all of Ukraine, the West will not fight him. It will just take in all the Ukrainian refugees, strengthen its eastern defences, and begin the slow process of bringing down Putin by crippling the Russian economy. That would take years, but nobody would forget about Ukraine. It is a UN member, and even China has stopped supporting the Russian position. Remember East Timor.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Hands off my right to vote Mr. Harper Dear Editor Nothing is more fundamental to democracy than the right to vote. It is cherished in democracies and envied in dictatorships. Today’s newspapers are filled with stories about pro-democracy protests in Ukraine, Egypt, Venezuela and Afghanistan. Similarly, the history books are brimming with stories of disenfranchised people being imprisoned, persecuted, and killed because of their desire to cast a ballot. Throughout history, dictators feared nothing more than the right to vote. It was for this reason, Abraham Lincoln famously remarked, “the ballot is stronger than the bullet.” Internationally, Canada has been a tireless champion of the right to vote. Thousands of Canadians died on the cliffs of Dieppe; in the deserts of Kandahar; on the beaches of Normandy; and in the valleys of Kapyong in defense of it. They died so millions could vote and be freed from fascism, communism and totalitarianism. Domestically, the right to vote expanded throughout the 20th century. Suffrage was extended to women in 1921; to Asian Canadians in 1947 and 1948; to First Nations/Aboriginal Canadians in 1960; to the mentally ill in 1988; and to the incarcerated in 2002.The right to vote is so fundamental; governments of all political strips have sought to insulate it from political interference. Prime Minister Mackenzie introduced the secret ballot in 1874. Prime Minister Borden created Elec-

tions Canada in 1920. Prime Minister Trudeau enshrined the right to vote in the Charter (1982). Prime Minister Chretien passed campaign finance reform in 2000. Stephen Harper’s contribution to history? Unlike his predecessors, Prime Minister Harper is trying to turn the clocks back. His government is trying to pass legislation (Bill C-23), which could prevent 520,000 Canadians from voting in the next election. First Nations/Aboriginal Canadians, university students, senior citizens and low-income individuals will all be affected. Bill C-23 will eliminate the process of “vouching”, eliminate voter identification cards, and eliminate the Chief Electoral Officer’s ability to promote voting. The government is trying to rush this anti-democratic bill through Parliament as fast as possible. They have ignored petitions, refused to consult voters, rejected expert testimony, and limited debate. Stephen Harper will go down in the history books as the prime minister who tried to roll back the right to vote. I hope our generation (like Nellie McClung, Rosa Parks, and Nelson Mandela) will go down as the generation that stopped him. Prime Minister Harper: keep your hands off my right to vote.

Editorial - The older I get, the more I start to sound like that old guy who lived a couple of doors down when we were kids. That would be the guy who used to yell at us when we walked on the side of the road past his house because he’d planted grass on the shoulder right up to the pavement. He was the guy who used to wash his driveway every other day on the days he didn’t wash his car. He was the guy who never smiled at the neighbourhood kids when we said hello. He was also the guy who constantly filled up his birdbath because the water mysteriously turned yellow. And he was the guy who often heard explosions in his basement stairwell on Hallowe’en. I don’t want to be that grumpy guy. But I’m afraid I’m heading that way. When I hear the name John Baird, I grimace wondering what he’s done now. He’s been doing a bit of travelling lately holding “a warm and productive meeting” in Cairo with Egypt’s Minister of Foreign Affairs. At least that’s what the Canadian Foreign Affairs website says. Why he’s providing legitimacy to the current government of Egypt is anybody’s guess considering it overthrew the elected government in a bloody coup. According to a quote from Baird in the Toronto Star, Canada wants to “effectively assist Egypt at this critical juncture.” I’m not quite sure what Canada wants to assist Egypt with. It can’t be democracy. Maybe it’s the upcoming election, which is already a foregone conclusion. The coup leader el-Sisi will definitely be the next president. Maybe it’s the release of prisoners held without charge including Canadian citizens. Then again it could be something entirely different. Earlier this week another 683 protesters of the coup were sentenced to death including the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood. Last month 529 protesters were sentenced to death. Another 920 protesters are about to be tried in another mass trial. It certainly doesn’t pay to protest the overthrow of a government in Egypt. As a Canadian, I don’t think we should even be talking to a country like this let alone assisting them in any way. If you want to sanction a country, this would be the one. But John Baird isn’t the only one in government to get my goat lately. When I read today that Parks Canada is planning to install Wi-Fi Internet hotspots in up to 50 park locations this year, I could only manage a “What the hell?” Mind you, I’d just driven home from work and saw five people talking away on their cell phones while driving so maybe that set me off. To my way of thinking, heading off to the wilderness is the best way
to get away from the many devices that clutter everyone’s lives today. Recently we went to an anniversary celebration and when the lights were dimmed for dancing, it got quite spooky in the hall. As my wife and I looked around the room, we saw an eerie glow emanating from the faces of almost every person under 25. They were having conversations with each other we’re sure, but for some unknown reason, talking to one another seemed to take a backseat to texting one another. I’ve seen it before in the middle of a seminar at our head office. While the rest of us were listening to the speaker, two people from the same newspaper office were busy texting and laughing at the texts they were sending one another. Once upon a time that may have been considered rude. So now, Parks Canada wants to bring Internet access to 150 locations over the next three years. This all sounds quite dangerous to me. People have enough trouble trying to avoid walking into stop signs on city streets while texting without giving them the ability to watch television while paddling or hiking in some remote area. Heaven forbid you have to respond to an email. “Sorry, I’ll get back to you in a minute or two. There seems to be a grizzly bear in front of me and a cub behind me. I’ll email you back in a jiffy.” Some will say it makes going to the wilderness safer. To that I say, if you want to be safe, stay home. The unpredictability of rough camping is what makes heading to the backcountry exciting. Luckily, I’m not alone in my displeasure. A quick perusal of the comments section for this Toronto Star story yielded these gems. “I am embarrassed to be a human today. This is an unconsciously stupid idea. Spend money on improving campsites and protecting wildlife not attracting morons to parks who can’t go a weekend without the Internet.” “Please don’t! The whole reason I spend time interior camping is to get away from all this crap! If you suffer from potentially life threatening medical conditions and insist on camping. Get the SPOT! Leave the wilderness free of electronic pollution!” “What a waste, doesn’t Parks Canada have better things to worry about? Like protecting nature?” “Does a bear tweet in the woods? As long as the towers blend into the landscape, this is a great idea. It is one thing to live the wilderness experience (everyone should try it) but it is quite another to die due to lack of experience or ability to call for help.” “As long as the towers blend into the landscape?” To this guy I say, “Get off my lawn, you rotten kid.”

Brighton now has not one, but two clothing depots Business - Brighton - If you’re looking for real bargains, Brighton is the place to shop: it now has two clothing depots. How that came about in the last few months has become a matter of conjecture for those not familiar with the story. It all started when a large number of volunteers who formerly staffed the clothing depot beside Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church decided to part ways with the church and establish another non-profit operation elsewhere. They eventually found a home in Brighton’s industrial park, at 5 Craig Boulevard and opened to the public March 21. Gayle Leney, the group’s spokesperson, said the main point of contention was a disagreement over how the money raised through the sale of donated articles was to be disbursed. And central to that dispute was whether the volunteers had been working for the church all along and thus were subject to its control, or had belonged to a group created to operate entirely on its own. “We were set up as a separate entity in 1965 and we governed ourselves,” Leney said. That responsibility included deciding where to direct money to worthy causes in the community. But that autonomy became an issue last year when the church introduced “procedural changes” governing how funds were to be given out, “to ensure that the church was in compliance” with rules and regulations enforced by the Canada Revenue Agency. That explanation, offered by Brian Ostrander, chair of the church council in a recent open letter to the community, pointed out registered charitable organizations, such as TrinitySt. Andrew’s United Church, “may only distribute funds to other charitable organizations.” Which the clothing depot hadn’t been doing in every instance, at times supporting initiatives that didn’t have charitable status but still provided a service that hadn’t a profit motive. The group didn’t issue receipts, file
tax returns or pay any of its members, Leney said. “All of our money goes back to the community.” In 2012, “the last year we were totally independent, we put $62,000 into the community.” The money supported such things the Christmas hamper program, as well as churches, schools, local organizations, students, and kids too poor to buy hockey equipment, she said. “They said we were still going to be able to allocate all this money wherever we wanted it to go, and we would be able to operate ourselves as we wished but things started changing quite drastically,” Leney said. When the differences became too great to resolve, she and “95 per cent of the original volunteers,” who had become “disgruntled” by what was taking place, decided to go out on their own, under the banner of The Brighton Clothing Depot. What happened was “heartbreaking,” but the committee in charge of the depot wants to put the controversy behind it. “We don’t want to cause a rift,” Leney said. Jean Finkle, the new co-ordinator of the Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church Clothing Depot on Prince Edward Street, said the division that arose “was a very sad situation,” brought about in part because the ladies who volunteered at the depot “thought themselves to be totally separate” from Trinity-St. Andrew’s, which they weren’t. “It was always the church’s building, the church’s possessions,” she said, adding the church might not have been as “attentive” to the depot’s affairs as it should have been. “We had to bring it back under new governance and in doing so, there was some very, very bitter feelings. They’re really upset and it’s too bad. “[They] were doing a wonderful job … on behalf of the church,” she said. The situation is “really awkward” and “I’m sure the public [is] confused [by]

what’s going on here.” Finkle said Trinity-St. Andrew’s “tried to make amends” and failed but she hopes the two sides can patch up their differences and establish cordial relations. “It would be nice if it would become amicable,” she said. Finkle believes Brighton can support two clothing depots because “there’s a huge need” in the area for what both have to sell at low cost. Leney isn’t as confident. “I don’t really know,” she said, although she’s encouraged by the “very, very favourable” response the depot has been getting “from everybody. We have all our regular customers back again.” Still, she’s uncertain “whether we’ll be able to give out as much as we have in the past, because we aren’t getting as much as were … which is very unfortunate.”

Northumberland OPP said the car, a 1998 Toyota Camry, was pulled over just west of County Road 30 in Brighton a little before 10:30 p.m. April 26. Officers found evidence of drugs and paraphernalia in the car, and when they searched the driver, they discovered a 9 mm semi-automatic AMRI Fratellie handgun in his pocket with a magazine containing 11 rounds of ammunition. The officers also found crystal methamphetamine and small quantities of pills believed to be heroin, as well as Canadian and American currency in excess of $3,000, the OPP said. A search of the vehicle turned up more pills, believed to be cocaine, and a 5500K Volt stun gun. Kit Sen Chou, 51, of Brossard, Quebec, was held in custody for a bail hearing scheduled for April 28 in the Ontario Court of Justice in Cobourg.

Youth looking for a bigger, Northumberland St. John Ambulance branch accepts provincial award better skateboard park
By Ray Yurkowski
News - Brighton - At their regular meeting last week, municipal council heard the latest report about the possibility of expanding the skateboard facility at King Edward Park. The initiative started in 2012, when a group of local youths presented a petition requesting a new or expanded skateboard area at the park. Since then, municipal staff has met with the group. Conceptual drawings were developed, which include ideas generated from those meetings as well as input from designers at a major manufacturer of skateboard equipment. The present configuration was built in 2005 for about $70,000 and has nowhere near the appeal of the concrete configurations constructed in neighbouring communities. Notably, the skateboard park expansion was included in the King Edward Park Master Plan. “Our vision includes an extension of the southwest corner to allow for a large ramp,” community skateboard group organizer Trevor Lepine told council. “We contacted the Canadian Ramp Company, who gave us an image of the design we provided. We’re very satisfied and hope to use it for a future plan.” The preferred option comes in at an estimated
cost of $225,000. A scaled-down version, without the large ramp, would cost about $135,000. “But bigger is better,” said Lepine. A $25,000 reserve allocation for the project was included in the 2014 budget and, says municipal recreation director Jim Millar, the hope is to ask for another $25,000 in the 2015 budget. “Meetings with the youth group of skateboarders has been a very positive experience,” he said in his report. “I feel the ideas put forth by the group, along with the price tag, is a great investment.” As for the rest of the cost, Millar sees “fund-raising opportunities for the youth” along with the potential for an application to the Ontario Trillium Foundation and other sources. “This could be brought along as a two or threeyear project or perhaps be placed as a shovel-ready project should infrastructure funding be announced for recreation-type items,” said the report. “What I like about you guys is you’re not giving up,” said Councillor Tom Rittwage, who presented the original petition to council. “I’m in favour of Plan A. Bigger is better when it comes to skateboarding.” “I have to concur,” added Mayor Mark Walas. “Plan A is the way to go.” Council approved accepting the report.

Cobourg – News – What the St. John Ambulance branch in Northumberland lacks in size, it makes up through the dedication of its volunteers. This year that demonstrated cooperation for the betterment of the community didn’t go unnoticed, as the branch was presented with the Frederick N. Lewis Memorial provincial award recently. For Karen Walker, a unit coordinator for one of two therapy dog units that St. John’s Ambulance runs from Port Hope to Brighton, the award is special since it recognizes the dedication of local volunteers. “We’re a small branch so this is a great thing,” she said, adding that it recognizes the contributions of each of its unique human and canine volunteers. “It’s absolutely wonderful be-
cause it generally goes to larger branches and there are close to 30 in Ontario, so we are really excited to have it.” One of the world’s oldest charitable institutions, St. John Ambulance serves the health, safety, and wellness of Canadians through the efforts of thousands of volunteers throughout Canada. In Northumberland it has served the community for 40 years, with 60 volunteers contributing nearly 5,300 volunteer hours in 2013 to their community through two programs. The first program is Medical First Responders, the well trained and well equipped men and women who provide first aid coverage at community events big and small. Its Therapy Dog program has more than 60 therapy dog teams -- a gentle well-man-
nered dog and its owner -- who visit 30 seniors’ residences, nursing homes, hospitals and schools throughout Northumberland County. “This is all possible because of our volunteers and it was quite a surprise,” said Yvonne Seymour, board chairwoman. “You don’t apply for this; it just happened because our branch was recommended due to all the things we do in the community.”

give Marin and his staff the authority to investigate public complaints about municipalities, universities and school boards. The invitation was unanimously approved by council. A second motion from Councillors Mary Tadman and John Martinello, extending the same invitation, was withdrawn. Council approved a third motion, from Councillors Emily Rowley and Rittwage, proposing an invitation to a LAS representative to hear about their closed-meeting services. Next was a request from Martinello and Mayor Mark Walas to “immediately” terminate the LAS contract. “For me this comes down to a plain old money issue,” said Martinello. “It’s my understanding the Ombudsman of Ontario will charge nothing for closedmeeting investigations where
the LAS provided service will charge us $225 per hour. In these hard times, we should be ensuring that we save every bit of money we can.” That’s when Rittwage and Councillor Craig Kerr moved to delay any action until after the Ombudsman appears before council. In a recorded vote, Kerr, Rittwage, Rowley and Vandertoorn approved the deferral with Martinello, Tadman and Walas opposed. That led to another deferral from Martinello to suspend action on his and Tadman’s motion to send letters to all provincial government party leaders in support of Bill 179 as well as requesting Northumberland County Council do the same. “I’d like to hear what [Marin] has to say first,” said Tadman. Later in the meeting, a local resident had his say when, during question period, he revealed his plan to launch a petition. “I have before me a petition
that relates to the discussion about LAS and the Ombudsman,” he said. “I plan to circulate this among the voters of Brighton and I want to invite the councillors to sign this as well.” The document calls for council to revoke LAS services “in the interest of transparency and fiscal responsibility.” But the kicker came in the final line, “Furthermore, we the undersigned will not be casting a vote for any municipal candidate in the October 27 election that does not support the revocation of LAS.” “I won’t sign that until the Ombudsman comes to talk to me about the program he offers,” said Rittwage. “We’ve never had the need to use LAS and I will make my decision in
the best interest of the taxpayer after I have gathered all the information.” “I would be very cautious about signing a petition along with any other three members of council outside of this room,” added Vandertoorn. “It would clearly be a violation and seen as making a decision for the municipality outside of a duly called meeting. There’s a good chance you won’t be seeing my name on that petition along with three other council members because it’s not right.” “Councillors are elected to exercise their best judgment in the interest of the municipality,” said Kerr. “And when there is any proposition put forward to me that says ‘if you
don’t vote in a particular way, you’re not going to get my vote,’ what the person is really saying is, ‘forget your obligation to the municipality and act in your own self interest, do what is going to benefit you as a councillor to get re-elected and not what is in the best interest of the municipality.’ And that, frankly, I find immoral.”

The first of these keys is cavity-causing bacteria and the second key is sugar.

Follow that advice, and “you can spend your money on anything you want.â€? Vaz-Oxlade told the students to use a credit card sparingly, for necessities, and to pay the bill in full each month, in order to build a credit history that will make it possible for them to obtain a loan in future for major expenditures, such as the purchase of a car. She also recommended the students set up an emergency fund to give themselves options at university when something bad happens, such as a car or a computer needing to be ďŹ xed.

the municipality received a reconciliation payment from the OPP for the 2008 contract. The $98,698 rebate eliminated the need to borrow $50,000 from another reserve fund to offset a large increase in the 2009 contract; allowed the purchase of a hand-held radar gun as recommended by the Police Services Board; and set up the policing reserve with the balance—almost $48,000.

WiddiďŹ eld told council. “It’s become a tool that council can count on.â€? Throughout the 2013 budget process, council reviewed the balance in the reserve and changed the name to broaden its use. Last year, the fund was used to purchase electronic radar speed signs ($11,488) and help buy a new ďŹ re truck ($30,000). At the end of 2013, the fund had a balance of more than $371,000 and this year will be used to reduce
the tax impact of the new OPP contract ($80,000); offset the cost of ďŹ re department capital expenditures ($7,000); and cover the installation of backup cameras on municipal vehicles ($20,000). Earlier in the meeting, council approved transferring the ďŹ nal 2013 year-end OPP reconciliation ($36,116) to the reserve for future public safety or policing costs. “I see a potential danger in having too much access to those dollars that, I believe, should be used solely for policing,â€? said Mayor Mark Walas. “The OPP have overcharged us,â€? countered Councillor Tom Rittwage. “I appreciated the inspector’s concern but we do our due diligence and we’ll ensure the money that’s left over is used in the best interest of the taxpayer.â€? “Prior to the report from the director of ďŹ nance in 2009, the OPP reconciliation went, just like any other department surplus, back into general funds,â€? pointed out municipal CAO Gayle Frost. “The lion’s share of what that fund is being used for is, in fact, toward the policing contract,â€? said Deputy-mayor Mike Vandertoorn. “I am comfortable with leaving it as we named it in 2013.â€? Council received the report for information.

A trimmer Tom Trent Hills Jimmie Vaughan declares and the Tilt-A-Whirl Band state of emergency Full size Blues Band with horns featuring Lou Ann Barton on vocals “He is a virtual deity – a living legend.”
“At first I thought I was shaking this morning because I was nervous,” said municipal Councillor Tom Rittwage, as he stepped on the scale last weekend at the final official weigh-in for the “Trim down with Tom” campaign at the Brighton YMCA. “But I think it was because I haven’t eaten since last Tuesday.” The campaign was launched in November in an effort to raise funds toward the purchase of a new Arc Trainer for the facility. It turned out Rittwage had shed 55 pounds. There was no word at press time how much money was raised for the new equipment. Photo: Ray Yurkowski
News – Trent Hills – A state of emergency remains in effect in Trent Hills, although water levels along the Trent River had stabilized by Monday. Mayor Hector Macmillan declared a state of emergency shortly before noon April 24, saying the municipality’s public works crews and firefighters, as well as material resources, had become exhausted. They spent days filling and stacking sandbags around dozens of vulnerable residences where the swollen Trent River had overflowed onto their properties. Approximately 12,000 sand bags were distributed, including 6,000 donated by Belleville and 5,000 left over from last year’s preparations. Belleville’s donation “staved off” declaring a state of emergency sooner, Macmillan said last week. “It got us over the hump, but we’ve pretty much used all those now, and we’re still seeing increases of an inch-and-a-half to two inches of water between Hastings and the village of Trent River.” The south end of Cedar Drive in Hastings was flooded as well as sections of Green Acres and Percy Boom but parts of the municipality were hit that hadn’t been affected by the last major flood in Trent Hills, in 2008, he said.

Breast cancer will be featured topic at health forum
By Sue Dickens
News - Campbellford - Breast cancer is the focus of this year’s community health forum being hosted by The Lioness Club of Campbellford. Dr. Nancy Down, the deputy chief of surgery at North York General Hospital, will be the featured guest speaker. Originally from Trenton, her 12page CV (curriculum vitae) includes an impressive account of her training, background and expertise as well as her many medical memberships, honours and awards, presentations and research accomplishments. There is also another local connection: Dr. Down is the sister of Kathy Redden, well known for her involvement in the Trent Hills community. “It’s going to be an exciting forum here in Campbellford,” said Maureen Dikun, committee chairperson of the event and a member of the Campbellford Lioness Club. “And it’s happening on the same day as the open house at the Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) being held to celebrate the new digital mammography unit with tours of the diagnostic imaging area including the CT Scan suite and new digital mammography suite. “Breast cancer is a problem affecting not only women but men also,” noted Dikun, who said the topic for this year’s forum is “very important.” “North York General Hospital is a major centre for cancer care and Dr. Down is described as one of the reasons why this hospital is a major centre for cancer care in Toronto,” she added. Dr. Down graduated from the University of Toronto Medical School in 1980. According to the University of Toronto web site she completed her surgical training in the Gallie program at the university and subsequently did a clinical fellowship in general surgery at St. Michael’s Hospital. In 1985 she set up her general surgical practice at Etobicoke General Hospital where she practised for ten years before moving to North York General Hospital where she practises today. Her clinical practice covers a broad range of general sur-
gery including a high volume of breast, thyroid, endoscopy and laparoscopic surgery. She is currently the deputy chief of surgery at North York General Hospital and is consultant general surgeon to the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Marlies Hockey Teams. “As keynote speaker Dr. Down will discuss cancer detection, incidence,

McKesson Canada looking for a few good men and women
News - Quinte West - McKesson Canada is looking to hire 60 people to start work soon at its pharmaceutical products plant on Hamilton Road. Manager Bryan Asher said the 500,000-square-foot building is the biggest site of its operation in Canada and McKesson will have at least 100 people working three shifts 24/7. “Thirty of those people have already been transferred over from the former Sidney Street McKesson centre,� he said. The company distributes 35,000 products to hospitals and pharmacies. “We have a very advanced distribution system,� Asher noted, in a talk with Mayor John Williams. He took Williams on a tour of the plant and Williams was very impressed with the
sheer size of it. “I was blown away,� he said with a laugh. “The state-of-the-art system is unbelievable.� Williams said the company will be here for years and years, a great addition to the city. Asher commented, “We have a great team of employees. We want to hire 60 more for a total of 100 new jobs. They should be ambitious, willing to work hard and be part of the team.� He said workers will be involved in material handling, power equipment, forklifts and cross-training. He said the wages are competitive. Williams said that McKesson was able to work well with staff and get started in Quinte West. “These are great jobs,� Williams said.

Macmillan said nobody had requested an evacuation but “we’re prepared to jump on that immediately.� Fire Chief Tim Blake “has crews set aside for that purpose should that happen.� The mayor said the municipality had asked residents “to consider leaving their properties because aquifers� have been contaminated by septic systems that had been flooded and were no longer functioning. They’ve also been advised to drink only bottled water. Macmillan said “it was comforting to hear� from Premier Kathleen Wynne April 23. “She said her thoughts were with us and she offered the services of Emergency Management Ontario should

They were a great assistance in 2008.� The municipality issued a news release Monday afternoon stating its Emergency Operations Committee had met earlier in the day with representatives from Emergency Management Ontario, the OPP, the district health unit and Northumberland County’s social services department “to monitor the flood situation and begin discussions.� It said 1,400 properties in Trent Hills have been affected by the flood to date. “Declaring a state of emergency now doesn’t change ... (what) we’ve been doing all along,� Macmillan told the Independent. It wasn’t declared sooner “because we had not exhausted all our resources and now we have.�
“It’s a huge win.� McKesson also took part in the Quinte Region Career and Training Fair held at the Sports and Wellness Centre in Belleville recently.

cancer.” Controllers Against Cancer features air traffic controllers from military bases across North America squaring off in a one-weekend slate of games. Hosted at CFB Trenton this year from April 11-13, the event featured two local teams from the CFB Trenton ATC divison (Hulme’s Has-Beens and The Furball Failures) and also teams from as far as Quebec, North
Bay, Ottawa and New York. The Hulme’s Has-Beens team managed to claim top prize in the ribbon division, but The Furball Failures unfortunately lived up to their name when it came to hockey. “In true host fashion, we lost every game,” laughed Frobel. The tournament has been running for the past 13 years, raising more than $59,000 for cancer research.
Chris Scott and Ron Frobel from CFB Trenton presented a cheque for $6,400 to Canadian Cancer Society Ontario CEO Martin Kabat Tuesday as part of the Controllers Against Cancer tournament hosted at CFB Trenton earlier this month. Photo: Steve Jessel

the band took part in an ensemble clinic on stage with a reputable adjudicator. St. Paul’s Music Director, Mr. Phil Carney, is extremely pleased with the entire experience. “All of the students’ hard work throughout the year is the reason for their success. They have learned first hand, the results of dedication, and hard work.” Aside from the festival itself, students had a great opportunity to tour Boston, and see some great shows including an exceptional perfor-
mance from the Boston Symphony Orchestra, at the world renowned, Symphony Hall. They also saw the Blue Man Group, and took in many of the sights including a tour of Harvard University. The band looks forward to more excitement and travel in the years to come; they are already talking about the possibility of New Orleans in two years.

Magical History Tour 2014 Car Rally & Poker Run takes place May 10
Events – Consecon – On Saturday, May 10, the Museums of Prince Edward County invite all to come out to the second annual Magical History Tour - Car Rally & Poker Run fundraiser. What is a Car Rally? Simply put it’s great fun. Participants don’t have to have any particular skill, it’s something that everyone with a sense of humour and adventure can do. The Magical History Tour is a great way to see parts of the county one may not have had occasion to visit, or to see less travelled roads in a new way. It’s a lovely way to spend time with mom on Mother’s Day weekend and have fun with family and
friends. Participants will receive a package at the start. In this package will be a number of cryptic clues that will guide them along one of two separate routes to their final destination, with points of interest, quizzes and, designated poker card stops. During the rally, participants will have to answer questions that can be found along the route (some will require getting out of the car). Organizers will have things to watch for along the way and encourage participants to share what they saw with others at the end of the journey. The Car Rally is not about speed, there are no points given for finishing
first, participants may navigate the route as fast or slow as they want to. Morning snacks will be served at the Ameliasburgh Town Hall, where participants can register, and there will be a barbecue at the final destination. The advance registration is $50 for a driver and navigator and $10 for each additional person. Children under 12 are free. Registration takes place at the door at 9 a.m. on Saturday, May 10 and will be $60 for a driver and navigator. All proceeds support the work of historic sites.

News - Brighton - Slowly but surely polio is being eradicated around the world, with the help of Rotary International and its partners, including the World Health Organization and UNICEF. When the service club launched its PolioPlus program in 1985, the disease killed or crippled more than 1,000 people a day, most of them children. Since then it has helped immunize more than 2.5 billion children and reduce the number of polio cases by 99 per cent from 350,000 in 1988 to fewer than 700 a year today. Polio continues to be epidemic in just three countries—Pakistan, Afghanistan
and Nigeria—compared to 125 countries three decades ago. So while tremendous progress has been made to rid the world of polio, much work remains to be done. The challenge, Rotary explains, is that the last one per cent of polio cases “are the most difficult to prevent because the virus lingers in some of the hardest-to-reach areas on earth. Increased support from governments of the world, and donor and polio-affected countries, is essential to the success of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative.” Helping to do their part in a noble endeavour last Saturday were members of the East Northumberland Secondary
School’s Interact Club, a Rotary-sponsored youth service club. They staffed a table at Sobeys in Brighton from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to raise awareness of Rotary’s End Polio Campaign and to receive donations. Donors were also invited to dip a pinkie in some purple food colouring. Interact member Brittany Hesmer explained that when Rotarians vaccinate children overseas, they have them dip a finger in ink to identify those who have received a shot “so they’re not giving double doses.” The club raised almost $200 last fall at the high school when it undertook a similar awareness campaign for students.

Members of the East Northumberland Secondary School Interact Club were on hand last weekend at the Brighton Sobeys location raising awareness and funds in support of the Rotary International “End Polio Now” campaign. Money raised at the purple pinkie event will be matched by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and go directly toward eradicating the disease. The local Interact Club is co-sponsored by the Rotary Clubs of Brighton and Colborne. Seen here, from the left, are Jenn MacDonald, Brittany Hesmer and Breighana Brown. Photo: Ray Yurkowski

Theatre to showcase accessibility at open house and AGM
Independent Brighton
The published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!
By Sue Dickens
Entertainment - Campbellford - Vicky Hillyer, a member of the Predators sledge hockey team based in Bewdley, and Paul Macklin, chair of the Ontario Parasport Games will take the stage at the Aron Theatre to share their excitement about the opening of the “Games” in Cobourg on May 30. It’s just one more way the Aron Theatre is celebrating accessibility, the theme of their fourth annual general meeting (AGM) which is taking place on Sunday, May 4. “As a community owned co-operative and a cultural hub in Trent Hills, it is important for us to be accessible to people of all abilities in our community,” said Russ Christianson, president of the Aron Theatre Co-operative. The Trent Hills Independent published an article recently about the newly installed accessible automatic front doors and barrier-free washroom. These improvements were made possible by a trio of grants from Ontario Trillium Foundation, Campbellford/Seymour Community Foundation and the Municipality of Trent Hills. The celebrations at the Aron will start at 11 a.m. with an open house, membership renewal and registration for the AGM. At 1 p.m., featured guests Hillyer and Macklin will take the stage. They will be talking about the Ontario Parasport Games where hundreds of gifted Ontario para-athletes will be competing for gold, silver and bronze medals in eight sports at fully accessible venues in Cobourg, Port Hope, Hamilton Township, Brighton

and Colborne. Along with sledge hockey there will be wheelchair rugby, boccia, blind golf and amputee golf, para-equestrian and handcycling events. Following Hillyer and Macklin the Aron Theatre Co-op’s AGM will be called to order at 2 p.m. Immediately following the AGM, at 3 p.m., a special presentation will be made by the Ontario Trillium Foundation, the Municipality of Trent Hills and the Campbellford/Seymour Community Foundation. And to wrap up the celebration there will be a special screening of Hollywood’s most recent blockbuster, Captain America: The Winter Soldier with the “star-studded cast” of Chris Evans, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson and Robert Redford. The Co-operative is entering its fifth year of successful operation and has seen its membership grow tenfold, from 130 in November 2009 to 1,290 today, noted Christianson.

One-lane bridge on Murray Canal not an option
By Kate Everson
News - Quinte West - Residents near the Murray Canal bridge off County Road 64 have made it very clear; they do not want their two-lane bridge replaced by a one-lane. The $4.6-million bridge is scheduled to be built by 2015 by Parks Canada. “We don’t want to see it reduced,” said Councillor Jim Harrison at a public meeting at city hall with Parks Canada representatives, MP Rick Norlock and a room packed with angry people on April 23. “We want an acceptable solution.” A presentation by Jewel Cunningham, Parks Canada director of Ontario Waterways from Peterborough, project manager Dean Hamilton and project engineer Brett McLellan, attempted to explain why the bridge design is for one lane. It only seemed to raise more concerns. “It’s not the same as it was thirty years ago,” explained Norlock. “We have to meet current standards.” He said the bridge is too narrow to support two lanes now, following the Canadian Highway Design Code. The minimum lane width is 3.5 metres. For two lanes it should be 9.5 metres wide. “It’s 3.05 metres or ten feet too narrow to be used for a two-lane bridge,” he said. “Vehicles are bigger now. It’s not sufficient to let two large vehicles cross.” He said the proposed one-lane bridge will have a pedestrian walkway for safety. “If construction is delayed,” he added, “this may result in a lower tonnage restriction on the bridge or it may have to be closed completely.” He said there is no guarantee it will be safe for nine tons after next winter. He noted the bridge at Carrying Place was repaired, not replaced, and was still able to keep its original two lanes. Norlock said that even if the three municipalities, Quinte West, Brighton and Prince Edward County, contributed enough for a two-lane $8.3-million bridge there would be a two-year delay, terminating the current contract and over $300,000 already spent would be lost. He said they could submit a request to Build Canada for more funding. Traffic studies showed that a one-lane bridge would be acceptable for that area which links Brighton to Prince Edward

done. Project manager Dean Hamilton said it was based on a 2008 study with escalations of two per cent a year. “How can you do a traffic study without actually counting cars?” Rinaldi asked. Norlock said it is the width of the bridge not the number of cars that matters. Hamilton said the level of service is based on industry standards. Rinaldi asked who estimated it was a two per cent growth rate. Hamilton said it was based on consultants’ information. Rinaldi asked if they were from the area. Hamilton said he did not believe so. Rinaldi asked the cost of the bridge on Highway 2. Jim Harrison said it was $10 million. Rinaldi commented, “You built a mountain and you can’t build a puny bridge for $8 million?” Norlock said that was with three partners and a fixed structure. Moving bridges require more. “Talk to their engineer,” Rinaldi said. “You might come to a better solution.” Hamilton said it would cost $20 million for a fixed two-lane bridge on the Murray Canal. Martha Weaver from Barcovan area was very concerned with one lane. She said a lot of people will bypass the bridge if it takes too long. There are 15- to 20-minute delays now. Dave Ware had a 72-page, 650-name petition from people not wanting a singlelane bridge. He asked Norlock if this area would still be in the new electoral riding. Norlock said Brighton will be part of his new riding and he is as committed to this riding as always. Dave Dingle said they should suspend the process and have public consultation and find out how to fund a double lane bridge. “All the analysis should be public,” he said. He felt a Bailey bridge should be on standby in case it is needed. Michael Keith from Brighton asked if this issue is still open for discussion. Norlock said plans are under way but he is prepared to see if alternative arrangements can be made, keeping the money available. The money has to be spent by 2015 or they will have to wait another year.

County. Project manager Dean Hamilton said even with five bridge swings an hour the average delay would only be 119 seconds. He also noted that with a wider bridge they may have to change the alignment which would cost $10 million and if they decided on a fixed bridge it could cost $20 million. “We are already 75 per cent complete on the design,” he said. “We are set to replace the bridge in 2015.” Dave Dingle from the Murray Canal District Association said they were unaware of the information about the bridge. “It was not in the public domain,” he said. “We fear the impact a single lane bridge would have on the three municipalities.” Norlock said there was no secret about replacing the bridge. One resident, Mr. McMurray, said one lane was just not suitable for tourists, residents or businesses which would suffer. “You’ve no idea how many cars come across that bridge from June to September,” he said. Brenda DeMille from English Settlement Road, said she is a community health care worker and depends on getting across that bridge two or three times a day. “If you take it down to one lane, there will be some clients I can’t get to,” she said. “I will have to bypass somebody. It may be two hours before somebody gets the help they need.” Larry Alexander from Stoney Point said it is simply unacceptable. “It started out as a two lane bridge in 1880,” he pointed out. Doug Hall said the presentation was extremely slanted. He said Parks Canada needs to build a two-lane bridge and “do it right.” Greg Ashton asked about population growth studies, saying they should be part of the presentation. “Over the next twenty years a single-lane bridge won’t cut it,” he said. “They’ll have to do it all over again.” Mark Rinaldi from Brighton said information on the web site left out the fact that this will be a single-lane bridge. Jewel Cunningham said that was not intentional. Rinaldi asked how they could spend $300,000 and not tell anyone it was to be a single lane. Cunningham said it was their intent to work with them. Rinaldi asked when the traffic study was

be nice and get kids on his side . . . to confuse the audience,” said Olivia Garret, Grade 6, who plays the part of the Shepherd. Jesslyn Thomas, Grade 8, is the Big Bad Wolf. “I’ve done plays before but find this one very challenging. I like the storyline of it and how the fairytale creatures are pursuing the wolf for eating the sheep,” she told the Trent Hills Independent, at one of the rehearsals. As the Big Bad Wolf she performs two solos during the play, “a pleading one,” and “a rap.” “She’s trying to convince the whole court that she is innocent,” commented Allanson-Kelly. And don’t forget Little Red Riding Hood. “In this play I’m a spoiled brat . . . it’s fun,” said Emily Anderson, Grade 5, who plays that role. Then there’s Hillary Cudmore, Grade 7, who plays the part of the grandmother. When asked how she is preparing for her role, she replied, “I study my grandparents and see what they do and just try to repeat that.” Charlie Brackenbury, Grade 4, plays the part of a peasant in the play. He admits this is his first time in a musical as an actor on stage but is taking it all in stride. “I’m not really nervous,” he said. “It’s fun because I’ve never really been in something this big where I get to do something so important,” he added shyly. He also performs in the chorus. More than 40 children from Grades 4 to 8 are involved with the play. There’s plenty of hilarity during the performance when some of the favourite fairy tale characters file a class action lawsuit against the infamous Big Bad Wolf. What will the verdict be? Only the jury – the audience can decide. Performances will take place on Wednesday, May 7 at 7 p.m., Thursday, May 8 at 12:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. and Friday, May 9 at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the school or Eclectic Mix in Warkworth. The cost is $5 per seat.
Donation will be used to help fund microscope
rofessional, Friendly Service
News - Campbellford - The 20-yearold microscope used in the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Laboratory for diagnosing illnesses of patients from three counties will soon be replaced thanks to a $12,909 donation from Economical Insurance. The company demonstrated its continued support of Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) with a recent donation of $12,909 in partnership with Newman, Oliver & McCarten Insurance Brokers Ltd. “The microscope is one of the key elements used in testing for the diagnosis of illnesses found in blood, urine or tissue, and for determining the subsequent medications and treatment
needed for proper and effective patient care,” said John Russell, executive director of the CMH Foundation. “We are grateful for Economical’s generosity that will allow the laboratory team to continue offering excellence in testing.” The new microscope will feature upgraded optics and can incorporate a digital camera for the instantaneous sharing of diagnostic images with other medical professionals, which will be a great benefit in acute critical situations. “The CMH Laboratory is vital to the region as there is no private laboratory in our area that patients can access,” noted Russell. “CMH must provide outpatient

Home and Leisure Show does more than entertain By Kate Everson
News - Trenton - The Home and Leisure Show held at the Trenton arenas on April 25, 26 and 27 was a great way to welcome spring, at last. “Winner of the Best Booth in the show was Signature Landscape Concepts,” said Chamber of Commerce manager Suzanne Andrews. The booth was decorated with evergreens and flowers with a stone walkway. The partnership of Daniel Button and Brent Tripp won the coveted trophy. The Garden Place, which won the prize last year, also featured bright spring flowers, good for ending the coldest months of the year. Joan Gray, president of the Trenton Horticultural Society and Garden Club, also showed off some greenery to advertise the club. “These are house plants,” she said holding up a plant called sansevieria. The annual plant sale will be he held Saturday, May 17, from 8 a.m. to 12 noon, or until sold out, at the Chiropractic Centre parking lot at 455 Dundas Street West in Trenton. Annuals and perennials from local gardens will be available. Proceeds from the sale will be used for gardens at Trenton Memorial Hospital patio and atrium on 2 C. For more information on the club contact trentonhorticultural@gmail.com or call Joan at 613-392-2572.
This is a great time to swing into spring, according to Maria Lennon of the Trenton Lawn Bowling Club. “We’re having an open house on May 13,” she said. “Everyone is welcome.” She noted that the novice tournament will be held on June 8, with the “roll-off” by Mayor John Williams and his wife Heather. Carol Brooks was on hand promoting the Quinte West Relay for Life on Saturday May 24 at the Trenton High School Track, from 12 noon to 12 midnight. “It’s 12 hours for the relay,” she said.

The Trenton Seniors Club is promoting a Spring Fashion Show on May 14 from 7 to 9 p.m. Raffle tickets for a brand new Ford Fiesta were being sold at the show by Angela Smylie for the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation. The draw will be held on December 6 at Lange and Fetter Motors in Trenton. Only 1,500 tickets will be sold. “We will have tickets for sale at every event,” she said. Upstairs at the Women’s Show, Alyssa and Ashley Cormier from Belle Salon in Frankford were adding
colourful hair strands. Later they spray painted a tan on a woman in their booth!

The Good Earth:
Re-learning how to garden, part one Dan Clost Lifestyles - Gentle Reader, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a few years now to come to terms with the cosmetic pesticides ban here in Ontario. It has been a steep re-learning curve for many of us: â&#x20AC;&#x153;re-learningâ&#x20AC;? because we needed to go back to gardening the way we did when our parents taught us. However, as the season opens up, the questions that come our way at the garden centre show there is much to left learn...or unlearn. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s take a look at some of those areas. If you are not familiar with the basic gardening mantra of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Feed the Soilâ&#x20AC;? then you are doomed to obey television advertising exhortations to feed the plant with whatever super-duper fertiliser they are selling you. Applying fertiliser is a good thing, contrary to what you think the previous sentence said. The point, however, is that by feeding and sustaining the soil, you will need much less of the expensive fertiliser. Soil is not dirt; that is under the refrigerator or Deeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s carpet. Soil is a complicated environment that includes rock in various stages of decomposition, dead plants and animals (really small ones) in various stages of decomposition and many, many vital plants and animals living off the avails of the former. Add water and
air to give you the total mix. This is a dynamic ecosystem with lots happening; nematodes lie in wait for passing grubs or go on a hunt for the same, small fungus like organisms set up symbiotic relationships with plants, gigantic earthworms (relatively speaking) bore tunnels that provide pathways for water and air as well as effectively â&#x20AC;&#x153;ploughingâ&#x20AC;?, and literally, thousands of other inter-active events that ultimately determine the ability of the soil to support plant life. Which, incidentally but very importantly, is necessary to sustain us. How do you feed the soil? Unless a plant bit is diseased, e.g. black knot on a plum tree, it should never leave your estate. Return it to the soil in the form of compost. Learn everything you can about composting and you will learn almost everything you need to know about feeding the soil. Learn about mycorrhiza (check this paperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archives for previous columns). I am a big supporter of a product called Myke; check out the website. Do a soil test, which is really easy if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not afraid to read the instructions on the package. The results will tell you what you need to add and, better yet, what
you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need. The Perfect Lawn is not a fallacy, but its deďŹ nition is open to interpretation. For me, the perfect lawn is one that invites you to walk or play on it. The idea of cultivating and manicuring a mono-culture masterpiece that is only looked at is both a waste of time and a denial of the relationship between humans and the good earth which sustains them. But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my opinion. Top-dress annually (adding organic matter, overseed annually (sowing grass seed), fertilise when needed and as needed (remember the soil test), water when needed and as needed, and mow when needed using properly set up equipment. If we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like grass it would be labelled the most pernicious weed on the planet. So, if you cultivate favourable conditions, it will outperform any other â&#x20AC;&#x153;weedâ&#x20AC;? you can think of. The last bit, for today, is the notion of â&#x20AC;&#x153;dirty trees.â&#x20AC;? These are ones that produce annoying things called fruits that land on the lawn or sidewalks or laundry or the car roof and need to be cleaned up. In the olden days a dirty tree was one that had a lot of winter dieback- think Russian ol-
ive. Today, it seems to mean any shrub or tree, that mussies up the estate in a manner unwelcomed by its master. (I deliberately used â&#x20AC;&#x153;masterâ&#x20AC;? and not â&#x20AC;&#x153;steward.â&#x20AC;?) There are three problems with that perspective: 1.) you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to see the beauty of the fruit; 2.) you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to see the many animals feeding on the fruit; and 3.) you end up with mostly male plants that produce a lot of pollen. Just for fun, when you walk past the next yew give a branch a shake and look at the â&#x20AC;&#x153;dust.â&#x20AC;? There is a proven, direct correlation between our children and young adults experiencing breathing difficulties and male plants. Look for a future column(s) on this. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s get back to gardening, GR in a cultivated manner and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll all reap the beneďŹ ts.

He was proud to say that 14 of these were women, some as well known as Roberta Bondar and singer Loreena McKennitt.

News - Trenton - Trenton Christian School at 340 Dug Hill Road is swinging into spring! Children of all ages have shown their artistic side in a Spring Arts Festival held on April 24. “We have art, music, speeches, poetry, creative displays and baked goods for a school trip,” says administrative assistant Heather Rathbun. “It all shows off the talents of our students.” The Robotics Club had a display called Nature’s Fury, about blizzards and ice storms. “We show how heated telephone wires could help prevent ice along the lines,” explained Mitchell Stoffers, Grade 7 student. “If it gets too heavy it would send a signal to warm up the wires.” They also invented a robot called Tim and had a table describing their inventions. The seven students in the project headed by coach Joe Loosemore include Adam Loosemore, Marina Wolters, Abi Le Conte, Mitchell Stoffers, Brad Hoftyzer, Frank Vreugdenhil and Austin Schmoll. In the library was a display of various native groups, put together by Grade 3 students with typical artefacts which would have been used by Brooklyn and Cheyenne Smit enjoy a huge mural of the Lawren Harris painting titled Northern Lake reproduced by Grades 1 the Haida, Mi’Kmaq, Huron, Sioux, and 2.

DUND DAS ST. E., BELLEVILLE BE ELLEVILLE 191 DUNDAS ((613) 613)) 9 966-9964 66-9964
News - Belleville City Council has a major decision to make over the next two or three weeks following unveiling of a massive Mikayla Westerman shows off a Cree display made by her brother Evan, a new development proposal Grade 3 student. Photo: Kate Everson for the downtown core Tuesday morning. At this stage, the proposal is a concept generated by local developers and RFA Planning Consultants Inc. But as company principals Ruth Ferguson-Aulthouse and Stephen Hyndman, senior associate, made clear, the massive investment by the private sector, several millions, requires a partnership and some funding by the city. Sparking the concept is a tentative deal for a local developer to purchase both Century Place and the former Intelligencer building. High end condominiums would be created in the top floors of Century Place with enhanced commercial space on the lower floors. The vacant Intel-
ligencer building would be demolished to allow a four-storey parking garage. That is just a start, the RFA officials said. To make that project necessary, the city would have to clear the property it owns on the east side of Pinnacle Street (offices, bus terminal and parking lot,) and make that the site for a new police station. Mayor Neil Ellis said he encouraged the company to go public with the plan to allow some public input before it could come to the next council meeting on May 12, or a special meeting if necessary, although council and city staff have already seen the plan in an early presentation. The mayor said the police station is already part of the Build Belleville program so the city’s financial commitment would be reasonable providing the Police Commission and the special committee spearheading a new
station, agree, but details of an agreement to share in the parking garage and other aspects remain to be worked out. Hyndman and Ferguson–Aulthouse said the development proposal is only one result from the city’s own Build Belleville concepts and would trigger even more private investment in the core. The Memorial Arena was also cited as a potential part of the complex. “This looks like what city council has been trying to get to,” said the mayor, stressing that it remains a challenging decision for council. Ferguson-Aulthouse, who has been involved in many projects and planning issues over the years, said “This is by far the biggest project I’ve been involved with.” Both she and Hyndman insisted that there is a limited time frame to complete any possible deal and “timing is critical.”

Business “picking up” at trash bash News - Batawa - The community of Batawa kicked off its annual Trash Bash cleanup on Saturday, April 26. “We like to keep Batawa looking beautiful all year long and to work together as a community,” said Heather Candler, general manager of the Batawa Development Corporation (BDC). “Getting together as a community to clean things up even for one day makes a huge difference. You know the old adage: many hands make light work.” Volunteers Sue Kane and Pat Mulligan got involved because “we walk this trail every day with our dog. We want to keep it clean so that everyone can en-
joy it.” Taylor Shultz, a young Batawa resident who helped as part of the big team the Batawa Lions Club fielded for the Trash Bash, said he gets involved because “it’s a positive thing to do for the community.” Perhaps the youngest participant was Brynn Howard with her dog Hartford. Parents Tim and Melanie Howard from Batawa helped out because “we live here. It’s part of what you do for your community.” When asked how many bags young Brynn picked up, Tim joked that “she was just responsible for the recycling.” Volunteers were given a
complimentary barbecue lunch for their efforts, as well as the chance to win in a prize draw. “We want to reward the hard work of our volunteers and thank the community for working together,” said Candler, “so the BDC held a prize draw with $400 in prizes from the Quinte Mall, College Sports, Canadian Tire, and the Garden Network.” This year’s winners were the Rochester family, Karen Williams, Shannon Briscoe, and Bill Grey. In the three-hour event, 196 bags of trash were collected by the corps of volunteers. That rivals the efforts of many of the region’s larger municipalities.

There was no better way for our members to spend most of the weekends in late March and early April than to sale raffle tickets at No Frills as part of our ongoing commitment to raising funds to assist in the community. We congratulate our $1,000 winner, Marilyn Edmonds of Brighton, (ticket #2487) and we thank everyone for purchasing these tickets over the past few weeks. A special thanks also to Mike & Lori of our No Frills store for their contribution towards the success of this draw. What good is raising this money if we don’t get it back into the community where it is needed so we were very pleased to make a $1,000 donation to the Brighton Fare Share Foodbank. In this picture, we have our President Clay Samis making a presentation to their representative, Doug Askin with Mike Van Harleem of No Frills present. Numerous
other donations were made to several worthy causes this past month. Guest speakers this month included Doug Comeau who discussed the success he has had as one of the premier artists designated by the Royal Canadian Mint in the design of his new $20 Silver Canadian coin published earlier this year by the Mint. We also had Michael Mann who represented a group of business owners out there helping other others be successful under a gov’t sponsored program known as Launch lab – The Innovation Centre. Their goal is to be the catalyst for driving economic growth and prosperity through entrepreneurship and the commercialization of innovation as part of the Ontario networks of Entrepreneurs (ONE) in Eastern Ontario. Rotarians Dave, Vic and Michael spend a half day this past month, at the Spring Valley
Public School presenting a program formatted by Junior Achievement program which is designed to encourage our youth to stay active in school and complete their education – “Economics of Staying in School” Stay tune for more in a few weeks as our local Club celebrates its’ 25th Anniversary during the week of June 14th.

There was a half marathon, a ten-kilometre, a five-kilometre and the Mayor’s Walk. “This is our fifth year,” she added. “We raised over $50,000 in our first four years.” R0012665770
News - Quinte West - It was a cold wind along the bay near city hall on Sunday morning but that didn’t stop 150 participants from coming out for the Healthy Half Marathon. “Our numbers are a little down from last year,” said organizer Colleen Vickers, “but it’s still a nice day. It’s not raining.” She said comments from the runners and walkers showed they didn’t

All the money goes to priority medical equipment through the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation. Kris Bonn and Dr. Robbie Iny ran the ten-kilometre together, cheered on by Kris’ family Cassandra, Grace, six, and Fraser, two. “Cassandra and I just ran the Boston Marathon last week,” Bonn said. “We did it in three hours and 37 minutes.” Bonn said the ten-kilometre run at city hall was not nearly as gruelling, and took just over 40 minutes, but he ran it as fast as he could which made it more interesting. He also paid 18 of his staff the fees to participate, all for a good cause. Next week they are on to the Good Life Marathon in Toronto. “Last year we ran around the bay,” Bonn added. “I just turned 40 so it was a celebration. We also raised $9,000 to benefit the Children’s Treatment Centre in Belleville.” He noted that Iny’s son has benefited from the children’s treatment centre because he has cerebral palsy. Bonn said the Healthy Half Marathon is great for the community. “We love the course, the pavement and trail,” he said with a smile. Other participants were just as enthused about the opportunity to enjoy their sport and help the hospital. Emma, three, and Madison, one, watched their father in the Half Marathon. Lisa Lueck said last year she ran with her husband Michael, with the children in the three-wheel stroller, but not this year. “We have one more on the way,” she said. “Maybe

When you come home you will have such fun watching them play together and with you. Kitten season is here and we need loving foster homes so we can rescue some of the helpless ones and find them loving forever homes. Without foster homes we are unable to rescue and the cats and kittens will have to be returned to an undeserved life outside without the love and care they should have.

Lange & Fetter Ford grand re-opening a celebration three generations in the making
From left, Aaron Lange with his baby son Elijay, Mike Herniak, John Fetter, Rick Lange and Stephanie Lange celebrate the dealership’s receiving of the Golden Shovel Award.
Staff, friends and family of Lange & Fetter Motors, including Quinte West Mayor John Williams (with the scissors), cut a ribbon to mark the opening of the dealership’s new headquarters.

Members of the Lange & Fetter Motors Ford dealership cut a blue ribbon to celebrate the opening of their new location on Wednesday, April 23 in front of a packed house of friends, family members and local dignitaries. It was a celebration of cars, customers, and the dealership’s deep-rooted commitment to the Trenton community. Lange & Fetter first opened at 52 Dundas St. E., just east of the downtown bridge, in 1953 as a Ford dealership, and has stayed at its current location ever since. The construction of its new facility, which includes a bright and spacious showroom as well as lowered living-room-like sales offices, allows it to continue doing business at 52 Dundas St. E. and be part of the municipality’s efforts to grow business downtown. The new headquarters is actually the third building for the dealership. Originally, cars were sold from a small building that also served as a gas station. A new showroom was constructed in 1970 to better serve the growing business. Plans for the current building began a couple years ago and construction was completed this winter, not long before Wednesday’s grand re-opening. Interestingly, the family that runs the business is also into a third generation. The dealership was founded by the late Vagn Lange and John Fetter. It’s now owned by Vagn’s son Rick Lange. And Rick’s daughter, Stephanie Lange, is now the sales director. Fetter left the business in the mid 1970s, but the Lange family decided to keep his name on the title as a lasting tribute to his work. The families remain friends and John Fetter, now at age 92, attended the grand re-opening to reminisce with old friends and celebrate the dealership’s success. “It’s beautiful,” Fetter said of the new facility after walking around the showroom and looking at old photographs. “It’s a far cry from what we had.” Rick Lange said he’s proud of the new facility and the fact that the businesses has been able to stay in the same location for more than 60 years. “The location is an excellent location,” he said, noting that it’s easily visible to downtown drivers. “Historically, this is where it started and I was happy to keep it here. I can’t think of a reason to bring it out of downtown. Our customers know where we are.” Lange believes part of the reason why the business has lasted is because customers appreciate buying cars from a family-run operation that can offer consistent staff. The dealership employees about 35 workers, including people in sales and service and many of them have been with the dealership for several years. When asked what the secret to success is, Lange gave a frank and honest answer. “I don’t think there’s any magic; it’s just been a matter of trying to stay current and offering quality service,” he said, noting that the service does not stop once the customer buys a car. The staff and service team work to ensure they get the most out of their vehicle. The fact that the dealership sells quality vehicles, helps, too. Lange said he’s also proud of the fact that the dealership has remained with Ford all this time, noting the auto company’s innovation and ability to always turn out new products. In a speech as part of the grand re-opening celebration, Mike Herniak, Ford’s general manager for Eastern Market, pointed out that Ford has been the top selling automobile brand in Canada for the past four years. One of its signature products, the F150 pick up truck, continues to be a top seller, but the company expects to put out several new models over the next year. This success, Herniak said, is thanks to customers and dealership owners and staff members, such as those at Lange & Fetter Motors, who are committed to the products. “The thing that differentiates us from others is that we’re still a family run company,” Herniak said. When Rick Lange spoke at the podium, he thanked his staff, customers, and municipal officials who worked with them on the redevelopment of, not only the lot, but the stretch of Dundas Street East. It was repaved and widened recently to make room for the new dealership and other businesses. “I hope we’re here for another 60 years,” he said.
“I don’t think there’s any magic; it’s just been a matter of trying to stay current and offering quality service.”

As a former POW, Al Wallace, now 93, said it brought back memories. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They made us get out of the camp when they heard the Russians coming,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We slept in barns or outside. It was a tough time. There was a foot of snow. All we had was what we carried on our back or in a sleigh.â&#x20AC;? He said they were evacuated again when they heard the British army getting closer, forced to walk for days in the countryside. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a blanket, my gray coat, some food and cigarettes,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We all smoked.â&#x20AC;? Al says he lives in a condo on the 14th ďŹ&#x201A;oor in Richmond Hill now. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot more comfortable,â&#x20AC;? he says with a smile. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I enjoyed ďŹ&#x201A;ying the Halifax,â&#x20AC;? he adds, looking up at the massive restored Halifax in the museum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I did 15 and a half trips. I only count the last one as half because the plane went down.â&#x20AC;? Al says he was stationed in Yorkshire with 419 Moose Squadron. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The motors on the Halifax were Merlins,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;made by Rolls Royce. They were the early ones. After that they made them better, more dependable.â&#x20AC;? He says all his former crew are gone now. Please see â&#x20AC;&#x153;Great Escapeâ&#x20AC;? page B8

News - Quinte West - When Al Wallace was only 23 years old, he had to endure 18 months in a prison camp in Germany. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We parachuted out of the Halifax,â&#x20AC;? he said, at the opening of the Great Escape display at the National Air Force Museum of Canada on April 24. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had to. It was on ďŹ re.â&#x20AC;? He said ďŹ ve of the crew got out, but the pilot and wireless operator went down with the plane. The ďŹ ve were taken to prison camps. Al, who was the
mid upper gunner, and the bomb aimer, were taken to a separate camp for pilot ofďŹ cers. It was Stalag Luft-3. This is the stalag where the notorious Great Escape took place in 1944, when 76 Allied Prisoners of War (POW) dug through a tunnel and got out. Tragically, only three of them made it home, while 50 were executed and 23 were sent back to camp. The new display at the museum shows a life-like depiction on two levels, from a man tunnelling through the ground, up to a room (Hut 104) on the mezzanine

Paddlers ride the rapids during MACKfest Photos: Stephen Petrick
Justin Bouwman, a paddler from the Kitchener area, moves down an area of the Black River during MACKfest.
News - Marmora - The springtime roar of rapids on local rivers was even more colourful and exciting than normal this weekend. Dozens of paddlers took to Hastings County waterways April 26 and 27 to celebrate the Marmora Area Canoe and Kayak Festival (MACKfest), an annual April event to mark the start of the paddling season. The weather was chilly and the sky was grey, but the paddlers were enthusiastic to be on the fast-flowing rivers, many of which were roaring and filled with white-foam forming waterfalls. They took to the upper and lower Black River, Beaver Creek, Crowe River, the Moira River and Skootamatta River. All were well higher
for profit, but rather to boost the local tourism economy; something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not difficult to do considering the area is known as a paddling hotspot and paddlers from across Canada come to the area and stay at resorts frequently through the season. While calm summer paddling, has its
benefits, most paddlers find spring is the most exciting time to be on the water, Lawson added. And this spring, the season has started late, owing to the cold weather. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a buzz about this year,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People have been waiting to paddle.â&#x20AC;?
than normal after an abominable winter and a significant spring melt. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most people cringe at flooding,â&#x20AC;? said Manny Lawson, a head organizer for the event, commenting on the recent area conditions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get excited.â&#x20AC;? Lawson is a member of the Kawartha Whitewater Paddlers, which launched the festival about eight years ago. It started out small and has grown significantly over the years, Lawson said. She was speaking at Bunkers Hideaway, a resort just outside Marmora, which hosted festival participants for an early morning get-together Saturday, before they headed to any of the several recommended courses. The paddlers also met there at the end of the day for dinner and evening entertainment. A few dozen had gathered at the resort early Saturday morning; some even camped outside in the crisp weather. Many of them, Lawson said, are members of paddling clubs elsewhere in the province. She said many of the participants were from locations such as Ottawa, Barrie and Kitchener. The event, she said, is not intended This kayaker grips his paddle hard to put on the brakes after moving down rapids on Black River.

64th Festival of Praise coming to a close
R0012575552
The choir from host St. Paul’s United Church let their voices be heard during the Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise. The Stars of The senior choir from St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Stirling was among the entries performing last weekend at the 64th the Festival concert, featuring some of the top performers, is scheduled for May 9 at 7 p.m. Annual Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise. The festival, held at St. Paul’s United Church and the Stirling Festival Theatre, wraps up Friday. By Richard Turtle
News - Stirling - Now celebrating its 64th year, the twoweek-long Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise is coming to a close tomorrow after singers, musicians and orators of all ages and experience levels performed for audiences and professional adjudicators in various classes. Held under the auspices of the official board of St. Paul’s United Church and the Stirling Festival Committee, the annual festival continues to promote a love of sacred praise while maintaining a strong focus on encouraging the continued participation of boys, girls and young people, says committee president Donna Russett. Vocal, instrumental and scripture classes are presented at both St. Paul’s and the Stirling Festival Theatre as part of the regional competition with top finishers eligible to proceed to the provincial level. But, notes Russett, the spirit of the event is as much
about encouraging learning and personal growth in each of the individual participants as it is about providing opportunities for further competition. Professional adjudicators offer valuable feedback as well as tips and ideas to improve presentations, she says, adding it’s not only the seasoned performers who benefit. And many participants who begin as youngsters return year after year. As well, Russett says, the festival has been very fortunate to have such well-qualified judges providing both encouragement and advice. And this year, she says, is no different. Adjudicators at the 64th Annual festival include Oshawa-based opera singer Kristine Dandavino overseeing vocal classes, Ottawa-born cellist Samuel Bisson adjudicating string instruments, bands, brass and woodwinds, Toronto/ Hamilton pianist David Story providing insights for participants in piano classes and

scripture adjudicator the Reverend Barbara Willard. The festival regularly draws participants from Peterborough, Belleville and Napanee as well as from the immediate area and over the years Russett has seen thousands of singers and musicians perform. And each year Russett remains impressed by the calibre of talent shown by the many groups and individuals who take to the stage. This year’s edition of the annual competition opened last Tuesday morning (April 22) with piano classes, followed by scripture and vocal classes later in the week. Band and string classes run tomorrow to close out the festival. Russett, who was one of the young participants in the first Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise more than 60 years ago, is currently marking her tenth year as committee president. And while her involvement was lessened during the raising of her own family, she says, she has always been a strong supporter of the annual event. The official festival is expected to close at about 9 p.m. tomorrow with the Stars of the Festival concert scheduled for Friday, May 9, at 7 p.m. at St. Paul’s. The Stars concert is a regular feature of the festival and is also open to the public. Presented after the final adjudications, the celebratory concert offers a restaging of some of the top performances. Admission to the Stars concert is $3 for adults and 50 cents for children. Full details are available on the Internet at stirlingfestival.com.
Beware of emerald ash borer News - Belleville - Quinte Conservation will be warning local municipalities about the dangers of the emerald ash borer. The decision was made at last week’s board meeting. Communications Manager Jennifer May-Anderson says, “The Quinte Conservation watersheds are now in the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s Emerald Ash Borer regulated area. We could see an infestation within the next five to ten years. Developing an emerald ash borer management plan is essential to maintaining tree cover within built-up areas and minimizing associated costs of the infestation.” May-Anderson adds, “Our board wants to inform our municipalities about the risks of an emerald ash borer infestation so they can create a plan to address this serious issue that makes the most sense for each of them.” There are many ash trees along municipal streets, in municipal parks and green spaces within cities, towns and villages in the Quinte Conservation watersheds.

TRAVEL
Touring the fascinating tunnels of Moose Jaw
The entrance to the Tunnels of Moose Jaw tours.
A Moose Jaw motel is linked to Al Capone.
In Moose Jaw, you’ll be greeted by a Snowbird plane and Mac the Moose.
Lifestyles - In the early days of the 20th century, the majority of the large buildings in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, were being heated by steam. Therefore, it was decided to create a network of tunnels linking these buildings together so that equipment and supplies could easily be moved from building to building without having to almost freeze to death outside during the harsh prairie winter. At about that same time, many Chinese immigrants had begun to arrive in Moose Jaw, where they worked for very low wages. In order to survive, many of these immigrants adopted the tunnel system as both their living quarters and workplaces. Sadly, many of these men were simply working on the tunnels themselves or in underground sweatshops (laundries, burlap factories, etc.), trying to survive -and hoping to save enough money to eventually be joined in Canada by their family members. They were often not treated well at all, merely being used as cheap labour. Those days are gone now, but the “Passage to Fortune” tour that I took in these tunnels described the poignant history of Chinese immigrants very vividly. I was saddened to learn about the bigotry present in this era and that was another important factor in many of them staying underground for they weren’t accepted by some of the locals, as there seemed to be a lot of anti-Chinese sentiment. I learned that many of these men had been charged a large fee just to get to Canada and then they had to work long, arduous hours to simply pay off this debt (arranged through what was known as a coolie broker) before even attempting to have a better life here in Canada. Many, of course, never did get beyond this agonizing point! As I toured through this maze of tunnels, the guide said that these immigrants often worked a 12-16 hour shift for about 35 cents and then they were
charged part of this wage to simply crash in crowded, unventilated bunk rooms located within the tunnels. My guide continued by stating that this reality was a moral blemish in Canadian history. As I went from tunnel to tunnel, I passed some of these work areas and businesses and could imagine the horrid working conditions that they encountered. I also saw a former opium den, where some of the more discouraged would try to escape their grim reality. As time went by, this “Chinese era” was replaced by the Prohibition era, and the tunnels then provided a great place to hide forbidden liquor and for brothels and gambling. It’s believed that mobsters made millions out of this location. The illegal liquor was said to have been exported into the U.S., particularly Chicago, by rail. Moose Jaw was nicknamed “Little Chicago”, and rumours spread that perhaps Al Capone himself spent some time in these tunnels; after all, organized crime seemed ram-
pant and Moose Jaw was touted as the “Sin Capital of the Prairies” at this time. A local barber, now deceased, even mentioned that he used to cut Al’s hair and another claimed to have been Al’s paper boy. Perhaps these connections with Al Capone are true or perhaps they’re simply urban legends or tall tales, but some locals began talking about these and even today there’s a motel in downtown Moose Jaw known as Capone’s Hideaway. Well, after the bootlegging industry died down at the end of Prohibition, the tunnels apparently fell into disuse. Eventually, some enterprising people decided to use the tunnels for tours and “Passage to Fortune” and “The Chicago Connection” both began. “The Chicago Connection” is the lighter, more entertaining tour but perhaps less factual. On this journey into the tunnels, I was led by Gus, supposedly security for Big Al and Fanny, Al’s supposed decorator and bookkeeper. These two actors dressed in mobster-style costumes, took
us through a myriad of tunnels and secret passageways, behind shelves, etc., and past exit signs where there was no exit. We entered Miss Fanny’s Club, passed several cases of illegal liquor and a collection of guns, and then entered into Al’s office. We were told about the illegal activities that had allegedly taken place here under the direction of Al himself, and there was even an anecdote about Al playing golf in the Moose Jaw area. Gus said that he always carried a gun with him, so there was a 45 in his golf bag at the time. When Our costumed guide leads us on “The Chicago Connection” tour. he went to put back his putter, the gun accidentally fired and shot Big Al in both legs! It was a hole in two! The tunnel tours are almost an COACH & TOURS hour in length each, and they’re available daily except Dec. 25, and the prices per tour are $15 adult, $12 senior, $11.50 youth, $8.50 child 6-1), and it’s free for 5 and under. To combine both tours, the prices are $25, $21, $20, and $14. Group rates are also available (www.tunnelsofmoosejaw.com). Freddy Vette’s Heart of Rock & Roll Tour - May 3-10/14

Quinte Conservation warns of emerald ash borer

community, it spreads rapidly. Trees attacked by the emerald ash borer typically die within one to three years. Costs associated with an emerald ash borer infestation include the treatment, removal, and replacement of trees. Benefits of urban trees include the provision of oxygen, reduction of pollution, conservation
of water, prevention of soil erosion, provision of food and shelter for wildlife and moderation of climate. Trees also increase property values and contribute to the quality of life in a neighbourhood. Ash has a high tolerance of salt, poor soils and air pollution, which makes it a valuable component of the urban forest. In 2002 the emerald ash borer
was first detected in Ontario near Windsor. As of March 2014 there have been no confirmed cases of emerald ash borer in Hastings, Prince Edward, and Lennox and Addington Counties. It has been confirmed in Northumberland and Frontenac Counties. More information about Quinte Conservation is available at www. quinteconservation.ca.

Mutual aid expands across county borders The city of Belleville provided 6,000 News - Trent Hills - A new partnership was forged between sandbags to the municipality. Mutual Aid systems in Northumberland and Hastings coun“That really bailed us out,” Trent Hills Fire ties last week in response to the flooding that took place in Chief Tim Blake said. “We would have got the Trent Hills. job done but it would have been an extraordinary feat to fill the bags and place them [in a timely manner].” They “saved our guys a lot of work by having them bagged,” he said. “It was a tremendous help.” By going outside the county to help in By John Campbell
unusual circumstances, “we actually did something in uncharted territory,” Blake said. The assistance was arranged by his alternate as Northumberland’s Mutual Aid co-ordinator, Cobourg Deputy Fire Chief Gene Thompson, who got in touch with his counterpart in Belleville, Deputy Fire Chief Bruce Greatrix. There “wasn’t a real need” for the surplus sandbags in Belleville after the Moira River had dropped a foot-and-a-half, Thompson said. “It’s rare that we go across counties but it
does happen,” Greatrix said. Blake said firefighters and public works staff worked eight straight days preparing and putting sandbags in place. They were helped one day last week by five firefighters from each of the county’s municipal fire departments, who were also “on emergency standby right from the start … ready to respond at any given time in case we had to get into an evacuation situation,” he said. “We didn’t know what the water levels were going to do.”
Great Lakes gets a boost with federal cleanup funding By Kate Everson
From the left Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake thanked Belleville Deputy Fire Chief Bruce Greatrix and Cobourg Deputy Fire Chief Gene Thompson for their help in arranging for 6,000 surplus sandbags being delivered from Belleville to Trent Hills. They were used to build dykes around homes where flooding was taking place. Photo: John Campbell

News - Quinte West - With the Bay of Quinte as a backdrop, federal representative Dr. Colin Carrie from the Ministry of the Environment announced the government’s commitment to cleaning up the Great Lakes. “We need to protect and restore Canada’s Great Lakes,” he told a small group at the Bay of Quinte Country Club on Old Highway 2 on April 23. He said there are 31 environmental cleanup projects in the Great Lakes valued at $1.88 million, funded by the Great Lakes Sustainability Fund. “We have a shared goal with our partners, the conservation authorities, the municipalities and the province of Ontario to clean up all remaining areas,” he said. Terry Murphy, general manager from Quinte Conservation and co-chair of the Remedial Action Plan Restoration Council, said they are close to de-listing the Bay of Quinte.
“The fish are edible,” he said. “But we have more work to do.” He said they are monitoring the bay now. “We can’t just walk away,” he said. “The Bay of Quinte is so important to this area, especially to tourism.” Glenda Rodgers, general manager from Lower Trent Conservation and co-chair of the Remedial Action Plan Restoration Council, said they have been working on restoring the bay since 1990. Seven issues have been addressed and five beneficial use impairments have been utilized such as dredging. “By 2017 we hope to de-list the Bay from an Area of Concern,” she said. “The work is not yet done. There are emerging issues and new challenges. We want to keep the Bay of Quinte healthy and vibrant.” MP Rick Norlock said he likes fishing during walleye season. “I tell people if it’s under six pounds I throw it back,” he said with a laugh.

Lifestyles - The Friends of Presqu’ile Park are pleased to announce that, yes after a long, cold winter, that spring is finally here! While birds have been trickling back north for a couple of months, the big wave of tens of thousands of songbirds and shorebirds that migrate through Presqu’ile Provincial Park, will be arriving in May. These are some of the most beautiful and sought after birds for birdwatchers and this weekend is packed with activities designed to introduce visitors to these birds and the fine art of bird watching. On both Saturday, May 17 and Sunday, May 18 we will start out with an ultra early bird walk for the ultra keen at 6:30 a.m. from the Lighthouse Centre. Want to sleep a bit longer? We will also offer a repeat bird walk starting at 10 a.m. from the Lighthouse Centre. “Warblers are often called the “jewels of the forest” for their varied and beautiful colours,” says Park Naturalist David Bree, “but they can be a challenge to see. Our experts can help you find and identify some of the 20+ species likely present in the park this weekend. While bird watching is best in the early morning, there is usually some activity all day during migration and we should see birds on our later walks as well as the early ones.” There will be a guided walk starting from the Owen Point Trail parking lot at 2 p.m. to seek out shorebirds. Bree goes on to say, “With this walk we are going to the other end of the birding spectrum. Warblers are often hidden, shorebirds stand in the open, Warblers are brightly coloured, shorebirds are beautiful but are subtle tones of brown, grey, and red. Shorebirds too can be a challenge to identify, but having a guide with a spotting scope will help visitors get a good look at these fascinating creatures. These are true long-distance migrants; many are travelling from southern South America to the Canadian Arctic and are only stopping a few days at Presqu’ile to refuel.” The highlight for many will be a bird banding demonstration at the Owen Point Trail parking lot from 8 a.m. until noon courtesy of Elizabeth Kellogg and Roger Frost, licensed bird banders. This will allow visitors an unprecedented chance to see birds up close and learn how and why birds are banded. This activity is weather dependent for the safety of the

The joy of cooking being taught to young people Photos: John Campbell
Public health food worker Pat Stuckless helps Brandon Vau make a watermelon basket.
By John Campbell
News - Brighton - A handful of young people are learning to cook from scratch and discover for themselves the joy it can bring. The four classes arranged by the Beacon Youth Centre are being taught by Pat Stuckless, a public health food worker with the Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit. She introduced the teenagers to basic kitchen tools and how to use knives at the first session and then instructed them last week on how to make a bean and lentil salsa, fruit salad, bruschetta and nacho chips. “It’s all about making it easier [for them],” she said, so they will be more inclined to prepare their own meals and snacks, rather than turn to processed foods that are high in fat and sodium, and can be very expensive. “It’s introducing them to different foods and just letting them have some fun,” Stuckless said. The free lessons are “a great opportunity for kids to learn about cooking,” said Beacon Youth Centre director Rene Schmidt. He announced the drop-in at the plaza on Alice Street has expanded its hours of operation with the addition of two new volunteers. It’s now open on Wednesday, as well as Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

That warms the earth to the flowers delight On the scented breeze of a summer night While the silent moon makes its heavenly flight Or the chilly morn of an autumn day As the painted leaves are blown away.

KENNEDY, Beth - Surrounded by love, Luella Elizabeth Margaret (nee Skinner) died peacefully in her Oshawa, Ontario home on April 19, after a brief, albeit intense affair with cancer. Beth was an only child, born in August, 1946 to George & Myra Skinner (nee BARTLETT) at Toronto General Hospital, Ontario. She enjoyed her childhood in Simcoe, Ontario, often spending much of that time with her many cousins in northern Ontario. After attending Alma College, St. Thomas, she went on to pursue nursing, graduating from the College of Nurses of Ontario, class of 1967. Later that year, she married a handsome Irishman, and moved to Madoc, Ontario where together they owned and operated Lingham Lake Lodge for many years, raising a family and settling locally. After suffering a tragic, debilitating work related injury at Whitby Psychiatric Hospital, she pursued life with a new found vigor, often pushing her disabilities to the limits. Beth loved life, her family and the people around her with an intensity we can only admire. She touched the life of everyone she met in her own unique way and will be sorely missed. She is predeceased by her husband Wayne Kennedy (1944-2004) and survived by her children Rob (Dallas), Sara (Dennis), Angy, and grandchildren Mitchell, Alex and Ayden, and six cats. She will also be lovingly remembered by countless others and everyone who knew her as ‘Mom.’ Visitation will be held at the COURTICE FUNERAL CHAPEL, 1587 Highway #2, Courtice, ON (905-432-8484), on Saturday, May 3rd 2014 from 11am - 1pm followed by a memorial service at 1pm.
