Art springs up in mid-summer splash on Main Street By Sarah Hyatt Brighton – The visual, performing and culinary arts breathed new life into downtown Brighton this weekend. As the third annual Art on Main event took over for the day, Main Street and Memorial Park Saturday sparkled with colour and creativity, with dozens of local artists showcasing some of their best signature pieces. This year’s exhibit featured artists who specialized in everything from abstract acrylics, home décor, pottery, silk art, wood-turning, mixed media, willow weaving, jewelry art of all kinds, photographic paintings, doll art, container gardening and designs, children’s book illustrations and more. With countless tents set up in Memorial Park and with downtown businesses featuring an array of additional artists, attendees of this year’s event could get lost for hours in the creativity. Others, like wildlife artist, Sherrie Greig, who specializes mostly in acrylics, set up outside on Main Street to show what she does up close and personal, in live time. Entertainers, including singers, musicians, dancers, and street performers of all ages showcased all sorts of tricks, stunts and talents. “I think you’re going to hear this was Ayla Wilson, Chloe Peters and Blythe Burchart put on a show at Memorial Park on Saturday, as part of the third annual Art on Main event and entertain- the best year yet, a lot,” said Sheryl Dement lineup for the day. Photo by Sarah Hyatt. lorme, founder of the event and also,

chairwoman for the Art on Main committee. She is also vice-president for the Brighton Downtown Business Improvement Association (DBIA), which serves as the main sponsor of the event. While it takes time for events such as this one to get off the ground, Delorme admits, the Art on Main event’s reputation for quality production and artists has been growing. This much was apparent this year, as several newcomers set up in Memorial Park. Some came as far as from Toronto to showcase their work and others from past Tweed. In its third year, the focus was on expansion of the event – more artists, new artists, as well as returning artists and also, kicking off this year’s festivities the night prior, was the first-ever Opening Night Fine Art Expose. The expose, hosted at the Masonic Hall, remained open on Saturday, and featured six fine artists. “It was a great turnout for a first-time event and I’ve heard people really enjoyed it, the intimate setting and the chance to actually talk with the artists about their work,” said Delorme. “Several of the artists sold pieces and have expressed an interest in returning next year.” Please see “Art” on page 4

versity in Ancaster.

OPINION

Iraq: Endless War

“Suppose that... the Iraqis feel ambivalent about being invaded and real Iraqis, not (just) Saddam’s special guard, decide to offer resistance,” wrote British prime minister Tony Blair to US president George W. Bush in 2001, Gwynne Dyer December two years before the US and the UK invaded Iraq. At least Blair had some doubts, but neither man could really imagine that the Iraqis would see them as conquerors, not liberators. Another 13 years have now passed, and at last we have the Chilcot Report, an impartial official investigation into why Britain joined the United States in that invasion. (There is no equivalent American document.) It’s a 12-volume study that illustrates just how illinformed and reckless the planners of that illegal war were, but it doesn’t tell us much we didn’t already know. There are some juicy documents about the pre-war connivance between Bush and Blair, like Blair’s promise in 2001 that “We are with you, whatever.” But there is comparatively little on the scale of the disaster that the invasion inflicted on innocent Iraqis: 13 years of war, up to 600,000 Iraqis killed and a country effectively destroyed. So this is a good time to recall the fate of Fallujah. Fallujah was a city of a third of a million people, less than an hour’s drive west of Baghdad, that was occupied by US troops in April 2003. It was the first place where American troops fired on Iraqi civilians (they were protesting against the takeover of a local high school by the US 82nd Airborne Division). It had fallen under the control of Iraqi resistance forces by the end of the year. That was the “First Battle of Fallujah”. Fallujah was recaptured in November 2004 by US forces, at a cost of 95 American dead and 560 wounded. An estimated 1,350 insurgents were killed in this “Second Battle of Fallujah”. A large but uncounted number of civilians also died, as the American offensive involved massive artillery bombardments including white phosphorus shells. 9,000 of the city’s 39,000 homes were destroyed in that battle, and more than half were damaged. Sunni insurgents took back control of Fallujah in January 2014, six months before the rest of western Iraq fell to the forces of Is-

lamic State virtually without a fight. The pattern was the same: the new Iraqi army built up by the United States at a cost of $26 billion simply collapsed and ran away. The “Third Battle of Fallujah” began in May of this year. Iraqi government forces (mosty Shia, of course), supported by Iranian troops and American air strikes, took almost six weeks to recapture the city, which by the end of the fighting contained only a few tens of thousands of civilians. More will return in due course, mainly because they have nowhere else to go, but most of the city is just ruins. Other cities in Iraq are less comprehensively wrecked, but none of them are safe places to live in. The most recent bomb attack in Baghdad, on Saturday evening, killed at least 250 people. When the current Iraqi prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, visited the scene of the bombing on Sunday, he was chased away by a crowd hurling stones, shoes and insults. And there is no end in sight. Thirteen years, half a million excess deaths or more, millions of refugees, general impoverishment and insecurity, and an astoundingly corrupt government that is strongly and successfully resisting Abadi’s attempt to reform it. It is no wonder that even most of those in Iraq who suffered under Saddam Hussein’s tyrannical rule now wish he had never been overthrown. “Saddam has gone, and we have one thousand Saddams now,” said Kadhim al-Jabbouri in a recent interview with the BBC. Jabbouri, who became famous for taking a sledgehammer to a statue of the dictator as American forces entered Baghdad in 2003, added: “It wasn’t like this under Saddam... We didn’t like him, but he was better than those people...There was no corruption or looting. You could be safe.” The cautious ruminations of the Chilcot Report underplay the most important fact about the invasion of Iraq, which is that all these appalling consequences were entirely predictable. People who had any real knowledge of the political, ethnic and sectarian politics in the region and especially in Iraq DID predict them, including the relevant experts in the US State Department and the British Foreign Ministry. Never mind whether or not the decision to invade Iraq was a war crime (though it was, under international law). Never mind whether the invaders’ motives were good or bad (they were the usual mixture of both, actually). What shines through is the sheer arrogance and ignorance of those who brought this calamity down on the Iraqis.

Brighton Independent - Thursday, July 14, 2016

Serious questions about a new hockey franchise Editorial - Stephen Petrick Undeniably, a major junior or minor league professional hockey team can bring economic benefits and a real sense of community to a city, or, as in the case of the now-departed Belleville Bulls, to an entire region. Although no one from the city will say it officially, multiple media reports suggest Belleville is now in serious negotiations with the Ottawa Senators to land the team’s American Hockey League affiliate. Minor league players under contract by the Sens currently play for the Binghamton (N.Y.) Senators, and that will reportedly continue in 2016-17. But the NHL club is, by most all accounts, sure of bringing the AHL to Belleville’s Yardmen Arena in 2017-18, a move that would bring players into closer proximity and on the same side of the border as the big club and make quick call-ups more convenient for the parent club. But, there are many issues that need to be resolved and are likely being discussed already behind closed doors. Here are a few key issues that need to be hammered out. 1. Who would own the club? The Yardmen Arena is owned by the city. The Senators are owned by business tycoon Eugene Melnyk. It’s possible that either Belleville or Melnyk could be a majority owner of the team, but in most cases AHL clubs are owned by separate business people, who work closely with the NHL affiliate club and their arena’s owner. The last hockey owner in the city was Uxbridge-based businessman Gord Simmonds, who sold the Belleville Bulls Ontario Hockey League franchise to a Hamilton businessman in March of 2015. He was upset that the city had little or no plans to improve the Yardmen Arena. Simmonds always insisted there was no local business group prepared to make a serious offer to purchase and run the Bulls. If there are local investors, the city will likely need a new person or group to step up soon to ensure high-level hockey can return here, if they’re not already in board behind closed doors. 2. What renovations need to be made to the Yardmen? In April, Belleville city council voted to spend $450,000 to have an architect study the Yardmen Arena and make recommendations on how it can be upgraded. This decision sets the stage for another decision, possibly later this summer. Once council gets drawings back from the architect, it

can then decided on what to do with the Yardmen. The arena is believed to be in need of $5 to $7 million in upgrades at least. Eventually, $20 million more could be needed for luxury corporate boxes, additional seating and other upgrades. It won’t be an easy decision, given that Belleville is already stacking up debt to tackle a portfolio of infrastructure projects known as Build Belleville. Plus the Bulls rarely sold out the Yardmen anyway, which begs the question of whether new seats are a wise investment. 3. Can a long-term agreement be reached? Simmonds and the city had a poor relationship – and that made it easier for him to sell the team to Hamilton on short notice, with no time for the city to respond. Council would be wise, before entering into any agreement with an AHL team, to ensure this team can’t be yanked away in a similar fashion, especially given that it’s going to have to invest a lot of money on the Yardmen for a deal to happen. It’s worth noting that AHL teams move about faster than a puck on a powerplay. Over the last 30 years the league has been in and out of Newmarket, Cornwall, St. John’s, Saint-John, Fredericton, Moncton, Charlottetown and Hamilton – just to cite a few examples. The city must work out an agreement that would keep the Belleville Senators in town for several years. 4. How can good attendance be assured? The Bulls’ demise was aided by the fact they had one of the poorest attendance records in the OHL over their last few seasons. Yardmen crowds usually ranged between 1,800 and 2,500; not enough to please a growing league which was seeing teams in bigger cities and bigger arenas. The AHL however is in even bigger cities and bigger arenas than the OHL, and good attendance is essential given what players are paid and teams have high travelling expenses. According to the website www.hockeyattendance. com, the league’s average attendance was more than 5,000 each year through 2005-06 to 201213, so the Senators would probably be looking for the Yardmen to be expanded and filled each night. Having gone from the heartbreak of losing the Bulls, Belleville may support a new team much more than in the last flagging years of the Bulls. But nothing is guaranteed and the new team would have to have a great marketing plan and a desire to integrate the Senators brand into the culture of the city.

Trenton – Quinte West city council approved a request to extend the hours of Front Street Farmers’ Market on Saturday, July 16, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. in co-ordination with the events during Festival on the Bay. Deputy Mayor Jim Alyea said extending the hours while downtown is busy during the festival is a positive for both the Front Street Farmers; Market consumers and providers. “I think it’s a good idea, it gives people time to shop and peruse the area and see what’s there and it gives the providers extended hours to sell,” said Alyea.

Alyea said he’s been down to the market a few times this year and it’s looking good. “There is a great variety of things that are there for everybody from all aspects,” he said. “Whether it’s food, clothing and other stuff, there’s a good variety.”

Health unit issues extended heat warning, advises residents to take precautions Northumberland County – The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit has issued an extended heat warning for the area in response to forecasts that temperatures could reach the low to mid-30s Celsius this week. “While there may be occasional relief due to showers or thunderstorms during the period, humidex values are expected to peak near 40 degrees C Tuesday through Thursday,” the health unit said in a news release issued July 11.

“Hot summer weather can take a toll on people, resulting in heat-related illness, so we encourage local residents not to overdo things,” said Carol Chan, HKPR emergency preparedness coordinator. “An extended heat warning is a reminder for people to drink plenty of water, and seek out cool places.” Heat can be a health risk that affects everyone, but especially infants, elderly people, and people with chronic diseases. However, heat-related illnesses such as dehydration, heat

cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke are preventable. Symptoms of heat exhaustion include heavy sweating, muscle cramps, headache, fainting, paleness, weakness, tiredness, dizziness, and nausea. The health unit issues an extended heat warning when the maximum day time temperature is expected to be greater or equal to 31 C and the night time temperature is greater or equal to 20 C or the humidex is greater or equal to 40 C for two consecutive days.

During extreme hot weather, the health unit advises local residents to take the following precautions • Avoid outdoor sports activities or moderately intense physical activity • Check-in with vulnerable family, friends, acquaintances, clients • Drink lots of water and natural fruit juices even if you don’t feel very thirsty • Avoid alcoholic beverages, coffee and cola • Avoid going out in the sun or heat

Fire advisory still in effect in Brighton

Brighton – A fire advisory remained in effect in the municipality to start the week. Fire Chief Lloyd Hutchinson cited very dry conditions for the advisory, which went into effect June 28, but noted it is not a total fire ban. Approved campfires, natural gas or propane fire pits and barbecues are still allowed but must be supervised at all times. Residents are to notify the fire department (613-475-2233) before lighting a campfire, and after the fire has been extinguished. Some means of extinguishing the fire, such as shovels, rakes, fire buckets, and garden hose, must be close by at all times. Open air brush fires and burn barrels are not permitted, until further notification. Anyone who sets a fire while the advisory is in effect will be held responsible for the costs of extinguishing the fire. For more information, visit www.brighton.ca. Smokers are reminded not to throw cigarette butts on the ground or out of their car, as they can start a grass fire. Persons 18 or older may set off family fireworks on their property, as long as the display does not create a nuisance to anyone or cause a problem, such as fireworks falling into buildings, doorways, automobiles or other places. “We appreciate your cooperation at this time when the weather conditions are so dry, and hazardous conditions can escalate quickly,” Hutchinson said in a statement.

Quinte West Council has eyes on FireFit Championships By Erin Stewart Trenton – Quinte West city council passed a motion to invite the FireFit Championships to Quinte West for next year’s Canada Day celebrations at Centennial Park during the council meeting at city hall on Monday July 11. “I’m extremely excited, they’re a great organization, they’ve been here twice before and put on a real great show,” said David McCue, Quinte West councillor and volunteer firefighter. McCue, 67, has competed in the challenge for a number of years now and will compete in the challenge again this year in Belleville at the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre July 23-24. The competition is very demanding and based on fire fighting tasks commonly performed in emergency situations with differ-

ent levels of competitors from the seasoned veteran to the first time rookie. “Expect to see firefighters from across Canada and the States coming here to compete,” said McCue. “Individual races, team races, two man races, relay races, it’ll be a great display, men and woman and it’s the same course for both.” Councillor Duncan Armstrong, vice-chair of the Canada Day committee, said the FireFit Championships would be an excellent addition to Canada Day at Centennial Park. “Especially because we have champions from Quinte West competing in it, so they would be here in their own home town,” said Armstrong. Armstrong said they have a number of ideas in mind for Canada’s 150th Birthday celebration next year and he believes it will definitely be a special Canada Day.

Rotary Club of Brighton June, 2016 Newsletter Her Rotary year is over for now, Past President Patty Parmentier and as she expressed to our membership recently, she was very appreciative of the support of our Rotarians but more importantly, for the generosity shown by the community at large to support the work that Rotary does locally and abroad.

Patty is pleased to announce that the Board of Directors for the coming Rotary year 2016-17 (starts July 1st) include: President – Victoria Parker; President Elect (& Secretary) – Tricia Boehme; Treasurer – Chris Reed; Past President – Patty Parmentier (& Director of Club Service); Director of Vocational Service - Denis Goulet; Director of Community Service (& International Service) – Dave Sharp; Director of New Generations – Ricardo Melendro; Foundation Chair – Ted Harp and Sargeant At Arms – Bob Burke. A first for our Rotary Club were Past President Patty hands over the gavel to incoming President Victoria who just happens to be her daughter. Thanks to our Rotarians’ efforts this past year, our Club received the Silver Presidential Citation Award and the Foundation Citation to our club for our efforts in goal achievements. Congratulations also go out to Brighton Rotarians who received the Rotary Leadership Awards (Ted Harp; Victoria Parker; and Chris Reed) and a very difficult decision for Patty P. to make as there are so many that qualify, she announced her choice for “Rotarian of The Year” as Bob Burke. Past President’s Patty’s last official task was the unmasking of the new Rotary Clock in Memorial Park. It was installed there in memory of the deceased Henry Hayes and in doing so we completed Phase 2 of the Cenotaph Project. Mr. Hayes (aka - his family) was the local citizen that saw it fit to donate his home to Rotary who in turned, sold it and has spent the proceeds on various community projects such as the library, preservation of the lighthouse, and a project through the Friends of Presqu’ile Park. What a successful month is has been for our club in terms of fundraising. Thanks

to the sponsorship of Barcovan Golf Club and numerous other businesses; we held our annual golf tournament and are pleased, no excited, to announce we did our best ever with a final profit of over $23,000. Again, Thank you Brighton and area. It was great to have our two outgoing Rotary Exchange students come to the Club in June and formally introduce themselves – Stephanie Shakura, from Warkworth, is heading off to north-east Germany for her year and Jacie Steeves is heading off to a small town in France. It was nice to hear that both of these youths are social change makers program helping spread positivity. They will proudly represent our Rotary Club and Canada in the months ahead. Good luck girls. Another speaker this month included our own, long time member, Rotarian Jeff Brace. Jeff went through Cubs, Scouts and Air Cadets. After many years in the service, he was promoted to General in Ottawa and then Chief of Staff later in his career. They moved 14 times in 35 years and have some great memories

to share that included meeting the Pope, various Prime Ministers, the Queen Mother and many others Jeff is also a big time contributor to the Canadian Cancer Society. June’s other speaker was ENSS Teacher, Martha Warren who runs a student program called “THREADS”. She created this for kids who were interested in talking, perhaps get some advice, make friends, get nourishment, and even receive supplies if necessary. The teens’ discussions help build their confidence, and social skills. The program works hard to ensure the student’s dignity is intact. Martha spoke with great passion and excitement for her school family. We were also pleased to give her project a small donation to offset her costs. Remember to set aside Saturday, Aug. 6th from 7:00pm-11:00pm for our Annual Street Dance. Again this year, we are excited to have “The Bentwood Rockers”. Come hungry as the Lion’s Club will have their food booth and Rotary will have licensed drinks available.

Who says furniture that looks this great can’t feel great too?

Brighton – Despite some blustery gusts of wind and a dreary forecast, Brightonians rallied this past weekend to lend their support to the Presqu’ile Point Lighthouse Preservation Society. The society hosted its second annual Presqu’ile Park Fun Run on Saturday. More than two dozen participants made their way to the picnic area down by the lighthouse early Saturday morning to trek anywhere from five-to-seven kilometres throughout the park as part of the fundraiser. A one-kilometre option for kids, offered toddlers and youth the chance to embrace some healthy competition and fun with one another, as well as the chance to join mom or dad in the community run. “For those who love Presqu’ile, this is an excellent venue,” said organizer for the run, Spencer Dennis. The Fun Run caters to runners who are looking to compete with their best times, with the sevenkilometre loop throughout the park, but also to those looking to enjoy the scenic view with the five-kilometre walk. The event also serves to promote more awareness surrounding the restoration of the light-

house. “This isn’t something that happens overnight,” explained Dennis, who also serves as chairman for the volunteer board of directors for the society, which is dedicated to restoring the lighthouse and ultimately, preserving its legacy in Brighton. Built in the 1840s and more than 175 years old, the lighthouse has served as an iconic historical symbol specific to Brighton. It’s said to be one of the earliest of Ontario’s surviving lighthouses. It’s the society’s belief that the lighthouse holds a special place in Brightonians’ hearts, but to secure its future as a historical icon for the town is an immense undertaking. The society receives no government funding, so every penny raised through fundraising initiatives goes a long way, the organizer noted. Dennis confirmed Saturday more than $1,500 was raised with the Fun Run. The society is now plunging ahead with a $140,000 pilot project, which will include work on the lighthouse and also a full inspection. While a portion of those funds the society has in the bank, fundraising will be key, says Dennis. Last year, the Fun Run raised about $1,600. The goal this year was $2,000.

Buy Local Northumberland contest organizers hand out $1,500 in gift cards to three winners Cobourg – Ron Palmer has 1,000 new reasons to organize a local shopping trip. Last month the Grafton resident was announced as the grand prize winner of the Buy Local Northumberland pledge contest, receiving $1,000 in gift cards from establishments throughout the county. Two prizes of $250 in gift cards were also awarded to Gail Neilson of Castleton and Sharon Kilburn of Cobourg. “I am ecstatic,” Palmer said on June 15 when accepting his prize

at the Rainbow Cinemas Theatre inside the Northumberland Mall. “I feel very strongly about the need to support local businesses, and I was pleased to sign the pledge as a conscious commitment to increase my spending here at home.” Organized by the Prosper-in-Northumberland committee, the pledge contest sought commitment from Northumberland residents to spend $25 more a month on goods and services here at home. The contest, which ran for 10 months, was kicked off with pledges from the seven mayors of Northumberland during a County Council meeting last July.

“Our residents got the message that this kind of deliberate spending behaviour in support of local businesses has a direct impact on jobs and families,” he said. “Choosing local even slightly more often generates big returns for the whole community, and we look forward to continuing to grow this momentum in support of local prosperity.” According to the warden, hundreds of people signed a pledge committing to the challenge. The committee estimates that this commitment has so far translated into a minimum of $200,000 in additional consumer spending flowing into local economies.

Lighthouse society making Help Centre plans for pilot project at offers free tablet limestone tower training

By John Campbell

Brighton – Presqu’ile Point Lighthouse Preservation Society plans to spend $140,000 on a “pilot project” to remove the shingles and wood girdle that cover the 176-year-old limestone tower in order to get a better idea of how much work needs to be done to restore it. “We think it makes good business sense,” chairperson Spencer Dennis said of the expenditure, which was recommended by one of the organization’s heritage consultants, Paul Jeffs. The work represents a small portion of the restoration project that is expected to cost more than $1 million to complete. The shingles and wood girdle need to be taken off to allow contractors “to do proper inspections” of the structure and come up with bids that are close to the real cost, rather than have them “build in big contingencies” not

knowing what lies beneath, Dennis said. The $140,000 cost includes putting up scaffolding which will remain in place for the work that is to follow, he said, and removal of the wood cladding “has to be done anyway.” There will be some grouting done as well. The society is still in talks with Ontario Parks but steady progress is being made. Park superintendent Rob Cunningham and Matthew Harvey, architectural design team leader, operations and development section, of Ontario Parks, “have fully supported our plans,” Dennis said, and he expects final approval from “further up the chain” will be forthcoming shortly. The target date for the launch of the pilot project is April 2017. With $60,000 in its account, the society will need to raise the balance but he

and other board members “are very optimistic” it can be done by then. The society held its annual Fun Run July 9, and will hold a raffle and a gala in the fall. There are “some other pokers in the fires,” Dennis added, but those details will come out later. The society is taking steps to have the lighthouse declared a heritage site by Parks Canada, which would make its restoration eligible for funding, but it’s “quite an onerous process ... up to a year,” Dennis said. “We’re just at the very early stages.” Another source of revenue is membership in the group, which has grown from 40 to close to 200. “I’m overwhelmed by the support that we’ve had from the people in Brighton and even a lot of people outside Brighton,” Dennis said. “I’m really happy the way we’ve moved along.”

Warkworth – The Help Centre is currently holding a free tablet course for older adults at the Trent Hills Public Library, Warkworth branch.

Refugee family welcomed to Quinte West By Erin Stewart

going to take an additional year so they decided to go through the joint program. With the government support and the committee exceeding the fundraising goal and reaching almost $50,000, Vanderkamp said they will now be able to sponsor two families. “We haven’t been taken off of our original waiting list, we just have this additional family that we are doing first,” he said. Vanderkamp said the committee is going to see how well the Bahta family settles within the next six months and then they will decide when they want to proceed with the process for the second refugee family. The Bahtas have only been in town for a couple of weeks now but Vanderkamp said they seem happy and are settling well with the help of the committee volunteers and their interpreter. Vanderkamp said it’s been important for them to enrol Saimon in summer programs and camps to help immerse him in English. Saimon will also be taking swimming lessons after swimming in a pool for the very first time. “Here he is, jumps into the water and he’s giggling… grinning from Quinte West for Refugees sponsorship committee members and guests ready to greet the Bahta refugee family at the airport on June 23.

They are thinking of planning a welcome party but will determine when the time is right with the family.

Trenton – After nearly 10 months of planning and preparation, the Quinte West for Refugees sponsorship committee welcomed the Bahta family, refugees from Eritrea Africa, to Quinte West on Canada Day, July 1. “It worked out really well,” said committee member Pastor Luke Vanderkamp, of St. Andrews Presbytherian Church in Trenton. “It’s perfect timing, of course from our perspective it’s all God’s timing and it worked out great.” The family of three – mother, father and 9-year-old-son Saimon – enjoyed Canada Day festivities and fireworks in Centennial Park on their first day in Quinte West. The Quinte West for Refugees sponsorship committee has sponsored the Bahta family, Christians original from Eritrea Africa but displaced to Sudan, through a joint assistance government program. Vanderkamp said the family became eligible for the program when the father suffered a stroke at work and was paralyzed on the right side of his body, putting the family in an even more difficult position. His health has continued to improve since the stroke and he can now talk and walk with some difficulty. “Everybody is absolutely ecstatic that we could welcome the family here,” said Vanderkamp. “Now all of the work begins as well, it’s a different kind of work now it’s much more of an emotional kind of work whereas before it was logistics.” The Bahtas spent the first few days in Canada going through orientation in Peterborough and now the sponsorship committee will be responsible for the Bahtas for two years.

Seniors Today

Cooking for one or two

Seniors face many changes as they move into their golden years. Downsizing living spaces and vehicles is common, as is implementing certain changes to improve quality of life. Many seniors also scale back in the kitchen, where some must make changes because of medical conditions. While it seems like reducing food portions would be easy, those used to prepping meals for a large family may find it difficult. The following tips can make meal preparation efficient and cost-effective. • Divide and store. Supermarkets are increasingly offering larger packages of food products as well as

“family size” offerings to compete with warehouse clubs. Buying in bulk can help individuals save money, but it may not always be practical for people living alone or with just a spouse. If you must buy in bulk, invest in a food vacuum sealer or freezer storage bags. Immediately separate meats and poultry into smaller portions before storing them in the freezer. Otherwise, look for bulk items that are individually wrapped to maintain freshness. Many canned and jarred items can be covered and stored in the refrigerator after containers are opened. • Plan meals with similar ingredients. To reduce

Okanagan Cherry Mint Smoothie Smoothies are great for a quick breakfast and this one, made with almond beverage, is also terrific for a bedtime snack. Cherries are high in antioxidants to protect your health and have the bonus of containing melatonin to aid sleep. Using any cherry will do, if you can’t find them fresh using frozen works just as well. Ingredients

food waste, use leftovers to create casseroles or mix them in with new meals. Broiled or grilled chicken can be used to make soups, stir-fry dishes, fajitas, and sandwiches. The fewer ingredients you have to buy, the smaller the risk of spoilage. • Cut recipes in half. Recipes can be cut down depending on how many mouths need to be fed. When baking, cutting back on proportions of ingredients can be challenging. Search online for recipe-scaling programs that can make the work easier. • Cook on the weekend. Use a weekend day to prepare food and package it into small containers in the refrigerator or freezer. Then the containers can be taken out as needed and heated quickly in the

Brighton’s Own

Florence Chatten: From farmer’s daughter to farmer’s wife to women’s icon By Vic Schukov Driving through the rolling green beauty of Hilton, I turn in on Chatten Road to interview Florence Chatten. I say to myself: “Wait a minute. This road is named after her family.” Then, I turn left onto Florence Road, and realize that her street is also named after her. And to boot, hers is the only house on the block. I have been told that if I am fortunate, she will play piano for me. As I approach the front door, I hear her playing a lovely piece. I wait, enjoy-

ing the melody transcending a pastoral setting until the song is done, then I ring her doorbell. I am greeted with a bright, welcoming smile. I was told that her volunteer work is legion, yet it turns out that her affable personality is what really bubbles over in our chat: Me: Your street is named after your first name. How the heck did that happen? She: I’m hurt. (She laughs.) There were many unnamed lanes in the township. They asked me if I minded that they name it after me. I said okay, but whoever moves in here when I die

has to change their name to Florence. Me: That should narrow down the market considerably. (We laugh.) Florence, 93 years young, was born a farmer’s daughter in Hoard Station (once a train stop) in Seymour Township. She moved to Hilton in 1947. After completing what “they used to call normal school, teachers college” she taught in Havelock and Trenton before marrying Roy Chatten and moved here to raise a family. Roy was a local farmer who gradually expanded the fields he cultivated

from 100 to 320 acres. Florence loves writing history and saves stories about local people. She has written several books like Brighton Apple Country, pieces for the Northumberland County book and Brighton Township (in 2009). She is a vital chronicler of Brighton’s history. “There was lots to do back then,” she says. “Up to 14 people stayed for dinner when filling silos and threshing. There were days when I was so tired I could hardly wake up in the morning. It was interesting.” (She deserves her own street.) I asked her for a personal philosophy, and she responded without hesitation: “You take what life hands you and work with it.” Then she added with a mischievous smile: “I haven’t stopped long enough to come up with a personal philosophy.” (Funny) Having been told that she is an inspiration to the many that know her, I asked about her volunteer work. Her answer was almost as rich as her achievements: “At my age I don’t have to do anything. But I made the mistake of making a new recipe of brownies and now every time some

organization asks for something it’s a tray of brownies.” Florence is an active leader in the United Church’s Women’s League; also, a member since 1949 of Brighton’s Community Branch of the Women’s Institute– affiliated with the Associated Country Women of the World - originally designed to give rural women access to education and to help them look after their families’ nutrition and health. She says, “It was a very necessary thing years ago.” Here’s my most cherished takeaway after chatting with Florence: She takes a genuine interest in you. Asking questions, she makes you feel interesting. And what a sense of humour: “I had a running battle with raccoons holed up in the old barn, but finally got rid of them. I put out sliced jalapeño peppers. You could see the teeth marks. That made me laugh.” What a blessing she is to the county. Brighton resident Vic Schukov is a long-time journalist and writer of biography books for everyday people. Please visit his website at www. foreverwithyoumemoirs.com; victorschukov@gmail.com

Cops taser man at Belleville Waterfront festival A bizarre incident unfolded at Belleville’s Waterfront Festival Friday night, said Belleville police, involving a man with a spear, a knife and a hammer. It took a blast from a Taser to subdue him, police said in a statement.

Belleville police on foot patrol at West Zwicks Park for the Waterfront Festival, at about 9 p.m. Friday, were approached by several different people reporting a “disorderly individual.” Ofﬁcers quickly located the man

whom they say was carrying a large “homemade spear with a sharp end.” Police said the man was intoxicated and was verbally aggressive with police and refused ofﬁcers’ commands. In attempting to arrest him, police engaged in a struggle when the man

produced “a large knife during the struggle, but was subdued with a Taser. One of the tfﬁcers received a minor hand injury.” Police said the man was not injured, but on searching him, a hammer was also found tucked into the man’s belt.

A 30-year-old Belleville man, who was not named, was held for a bail hearing on Monday. He faces charges of assault with a weapon, assaulting police, resisting arrest, possession of a dangerous weapon and breach of probation.

Dry weather putting corn crops at risk By John Campbell Brighton – A parched summer has farmers worried. “It’s getting very serious for the corn crop right now,” said Peter Archer, a district delegate with the Grain Farmers of Ontario, who grows corn on 1,000 acres on his farm on County Road 30. “Everybody’s starting to get a little bit downbeat about it.” In an interview July 8, Archer said farmers “were still optimistic” a week earlier that the damage would be “small” but subsequent high temperatures and a lack of rain “really caused a lot of stress on lands, it’s not good.” Archer also grows soybeans on 600 acres and he said they “really are hold-

ing their own so far. We need August rain to make soybeans, their demand for water right now isn’t huge.” Corn, on the other hand, is in its “rapid growth stage” with “a very high demand for water,” he said. “It’s bad right now but it’s still salvageable.” It rained later the same night he was interviewed and again the following night, Saturday. Farmers along the Highway 401 corridor got an inch of rain while Archer said he got half that at his farm near Warkworth. “It is a help no doubt,” he said, but “it’s certainly not going to seal the deal on a crop here.” It did provide “a bit of relief” but with high temperatures forecast for this week

– Environment and Climate Change Canada was predicting high temperatures in the low to mid-30s Celsius and lows of 20 to 23 Tuesday through Thursday – “that’s going to put stress back on,” Archer said Sunday. “We’re certainly going to be hoping” for the thunderstorms that were also predicted, even though they carry a risk of damaging winds and some hail, he said. “Those are usually fairly isolated events in this area anyways ... [and] we’re at the point we’ll take moisture just about any way we can get it here.” A big thunderstorm passing through that “drops a couple of inches of rain ... would save our bacon right now. That’s what we need,” Archer said in the earlier interview.

“We’re seeing a lot more stress [on there is a “potential for major supply corn crops] than we’ve seen the last problems.” three years,” he said. “We’re way be- There are three levels, with level 1 behind on our rainfall,” with April, May ing the least severe and level 3 the most and June having been so dry. severe.

Codrington-area couple to be added to Quinte Agricultural Wall of Fame By John Campbell Codrington – It’s a shame there isn’t more space on the Quinte Agricultural Wall of Fame to list in full what inductees have done on behalf of agriculture and the food industry over the years. Take Howard and Cathy McCann, for instance, one of four couples whose names will be added to the wall in September, and the only inductees from Northumberland County. They’ve been full-time farmers for 56 years, during which they have won many awards and been involved in numerous organizations, serving key roles at the local level with several of them. The Codrington-area couple was nominated for the Wall of Fame by the Northumberland Soil & Crop Association, where Mr. McCann served for a time as a president and Mrs. McCann was its secretary-treasurer. Mr. McCann is a past-president of the Northumberland Federation of Agriculture and Mrs. McCann was its secretary-treasurer for 14 years. Mr. McCann organized the Salt Creek Landowners Association, which initiated two major projects along with smaller ones to halt deterioration of water quality and fish habitat in the creek. A former Brighton Township councillor,

Mrs. McCann has been a member of Codrington Women’s Institute since 1960 and is once again its president. She received a Centennial Award from the Federated Women’s Institute of Ontario for her contributions. As well as being Junior Farmers and 4-H leaders, the McCanns were founding members of the Codrington Community Association formed in 1974 and were instrumental in raising funds for a community centre and library. “Almost every day something’s going on (there),” Mrs. McCann said. “It’s really been good for the community.” They were also involved in putting together the popular Rural Ramble self-guided farm tours that gave non-farmers the opportunity to learn more about where food comes from. Mr. McCann was the first chairperson and Mrs. McCann served as its coordinator for the two-day event which featured 30 farms and rural business across Northumberland. It received a national award for tourism innovation and the promotion of agriculture in 2005 at the Royal Winter Fair. “Volunteering for Howard and I has been mostly a joy,” Mrs. McCann said. “We benefit more than we give and it is said that people who volunteer have more fun and live longer, so that is a great incentive.” The McCanns ran a large dairy operation

Howard and Cathy McCann will be added to the Quinte Agricultural Wall of Fame in September. Mrs. McCann said the couple “worked hard to promote a higher profile of the farming industry and explain to consumers the benefits of having access to an abundance of top quality, safe food produced close to home.” Photo by John Campbell

until selling their herd in the mid1990s to go into partnership with their son Jeff in a beef cattle and team penning operation. When he died three years ago, they switched again, to growing corn, soybeans, hay and alfalfa on 500 acres. “We’re winding down,” said Mrs. McCann, 75. “We’re at the stage where we’d like to travel a bit and do things.” Mr. McCann said he feels “humbled” by the couple’s selection for recognition. What they were trying to do “came natural to us,” he said. “We were interested in agriculture and we wanted to do our bit to promote it and make it better.” “Farming isn’t an easy occupation but it’s been a good life for us and it’s a good place to raise a family and instill responsibility,” Mrs. McCann said. The induction ceremony will take place Sunday, Sept. 18 at 2 p.m. at Farmtown Park in Stirling.

Colborne taekwondo referee receives Meritorious Service Medal

By John Campbell

blows herself, once getting a kick to the stomach that left her badly bruised. “Everyone knows I’m fair, I don’t have a bias as to which country you [represent], who the coach is, what your name is, I don’t care.” The athletes are “fighting for government funding” or in some instances, a livelihood that’s quite lucrative, so winning is everything. A referee who “can’t handle that kind of pressure [had] better not be in the middle,” Marian said. “I’m incredibly thankful to the Newman family” -- her employer for more than 22 years -- “for allowing me to pursue my passion,” she said. It does take her away from the office sometimes four or more days a month, but her laptop allows her to stay connected to work. Being a referee has its “ups and downs,” including 12-hour days, the cost of travelling, and being away from family and work, Marian said, but she’ll continue to officiate “as long as they keep inviting me .. I’m still passionate about it.”

Colborne – Players and teams earn medals all the time, but referees? Barbara Marian can now say she has. The veteran taekwondo official received a Meritorious Service Medal from Governor General David Johnston in a ceremony that took place June 23 at Rideau Hall. She was one of 52 recipients acknowledged for having performed “an exceptional deed or activity that brought honour to their community or to Canada.” In her case it was for having “broken barriers for women and girls in a male-dominated sport” since she began refereeing taekwondo at competitions around the world 14 years ago. “Highly respected in the worldwide taekwondo community for her knowledge and fairness, she has served as a role model to athletes and as a mentor to Canadian and international referees.” Marian, who lives in Colborne and works in Campbellford as a finance manager for an insurance broker, said

receiving the medal ranks only below getting married and having two sons. “It was so humbling [and] surreal,” she said. Marian, who has achieved a sixth degree ranking in taekwondo – ninth is the highest – turned to refereeing when she became “too old to be a competitive fighter.” Now “54 and darn proud” of it, she has travelled to cities in North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Her resume includes nine world championships, four World Cups, The Youth Olympic Singapore Games, world military championships, three world para-championships, two Pan Am games and five Grand Prix. She takes pride in officiating “a fair and honourable match [where] the outcome is decided by the athletes.” As a ref she’s there to make sure the combatants follow the rules and their safety is maintained. Injuries can happen, but “it’s rare that you have knockouts and broken bones,” she said. Marian has suffered inadvertent

Westbrook, Sandercock, Hennessy, Mutton all find victory lane at Brighton Speedway

Brighton – Brighton Speedway evaded any serious threat of rain to complete a full program on Vanzuylen Tire & Alignment and Electro Cables Southern Ontario Sprints race night. A total 85 cars were signed in to the pit area as Brighton’s 49th season of competition continued on a hot and humid evening. Westbrook Claims First Brighton Win With SOS Dylan Westbrook of Oakland, Ont. took the lead from Caistor Centre, Ont. native Cory Turner in traffic on lap 20 and powered to his second straight win with the Southern Ontario Sprints presented by Sanderson Tire & Automotive over the final six laps on Saturday night at Brighton Speedway. Ryan Turner (No.91 Insta-Panels) and Cory Turner (No.97 KT Tobacco) started on the front row for the 25-lap main event following an eight-car redraw. Cory Turner took the point on the top side of the speedway to lead the opening lap as Ryan Turner fell to second. Third starting Charlie Sandercock (No.57 Bellevue Fabricating) bicycled his car in turn one, but got it back on all fours before tipping over. It shook the field, however, as Westbrook (No.47 Bradshaw Fuels) drove to the third position while Sandercock got his car under control. While Cory Turner build a commanding lead of a full straightaway over his brother, Westbrook challenged Ryan Turner for the second position. Westbrook took the runner-up spot on lap eight, shuffling Turner’s No.91 backwards. Westbrook worked the top lane, while Cory Turner attempted to find traction on the bottom. Traffic played a factor and Westbrook took the lead on lap 20, but Cory Turner wouldn’t go away. The two raced side-by-side off turn two with three laps to go, but Westbrook’s momentum on the top propelled him to the victory. Sandercock Scores Second Win Charlie Sandercock (No.57 Bellevue Fabricating) took the lead from Phil Potts (No.29 Vanderlaan) on lap nine and led the final 26 laps for his second win of the season in Vanderlaan Building Products Pro Late Model competition. Robbie Wilson (No.09 Bay Mazda) started on the front row with Potts, who jumped out to an early lead ahead of Caley Weese (No.77 Dibbits Excavating) and Steve Baldwin (No.5 Pro Advantage Sports). The first of three cautions in the race came on lap eight when Chris Heard (No.9 Bernheisel Racecars) spun in turn four. Baldwin slowed to a stop in turn two under yellow, despite not being in-

volved in the initial caution, and could not continue. The race was slowed again one lap later for a rain delay that lasted a little over five minutes. Cars remained on the track to work the moisture in to the surface while the mini shower passed. Sandercock used the restart to power to the lead on the outside of Potts. The final yellow flag waved on lap 11 when Tyler Rand (No.84 Terry’s Taxi) and Andy Mayhew (No.1 A&A Haulage) tangled in turn three with both drivers suffering minor body damage. Sandercock grew his lead on the restart to a half-second, but could never pull away from Potts despite his best efforts. Those two drivers blew the rest of the field away, leading third-place driver Adam Turner (No.92 Village Variety) by a half lap in the closing laps. Potts drove to the inside of Sandercock with two laps to go in turn two, but couldn’t reduce the lead to less than 0.2 seconds and ultimately settled for second at the line. Brandon Mowat (No.46 Target Fabrication) drove to third in the closing laps ahead of Adam Nayler (No.42 Quinte Tire Disposal) and Turner.

Josh Hennessy Earns First Career Modified Win

Josh Hennessy (No.88 A&A Haulage) was near flawless in the Bainer’s OilGARD Canadian Modified 25-lap AMain and led 23 laps for his first career victory in the division. Polesitter Derek Bowers (No.03 Competition Motors) started on the pole and led the opening two laps until he spun in turn four for the first yellow of the race. Doug O’Blenis (No.32 John’s Car Care) powered to the second spot on the restart using the top lane. A caution on lap nine reeled in the leader, but even that couldn’t prevent Hennessy from checking out in front of the field. The Picton, Ont. driver had an advantage of a full straightaway over O’Blenis and Derrick Greig (No.48 Greig Truck & Trailer) with five laps to go and Hennessy drove the final five circuits perfectly and claimed the victory. Jonah Mutton Wins First Pro Stock Feature Brighton native Jonah Mutton (No.39 NOCO Fuels) survived a three-wide battle for the lead with Justin Ram-

Brighton in three-way tie for first in Bay of Quinte Division 1 soccer By John Campbell Brighton – This Orange stays fresh. Since joining the Bay of Quinte Men’s Outdoor Soccer League 15 years ago, Brighton Keystone Orange has proved itself a formidable foe, winning five Division 1 championships from 2008 to 2013. It hasn’t done as well the last couple of seasons but the team is showing signs it’s back in the hunt for another title, tied for first with Hellenics and Azzurri after eight games. “We’re in pretty good shape,” said coach and team founder Merv Heffernan. “I like our chances this year. We’ve got a very, very nice team. We always have a good team but this year’s just got a little bit of added chemistry, and having the youngsters come up helps.” The roster is “pretty much the same guys” as last season but “a little bit stronger” with the addition of Chancellor White, a midfielder, and the return of two former players, Bryan Couperus, a forward, and Jake McGowan, also a midfielder. It can also count on Ian Molenhuis when needed for league play or Cup games (which are in addition to the regular schedule, involving pools of four

teams taking part in a round robin played over several weeks) The players range in age from 18-year-old Molenhuis to 38-year-old Shane Chapman. There are three sets of brothers – Bryan, Keith and Kyle Couperus, Bryce and Kevin Kakkesteegt, and Matthew and Ryan Christian. The team has had many siblings on its roster over the years, Heffernan said. “They are truly a band of brothers.” The Orange defeated the Fury 4-2 July 7, with Keith Couperus, White, Ryan Christian and Kyle McNeely handling the scoring. Brighton began its Cup play July 10, tying Azzurri 3-3 on a goal in the last five minutes, after falling behind when Azzurri scored on a free kick. Matt Wiggins scored twice and Brennan Thompson once. “It was an ugly draw but we’ll take it,” Heffernan said. Keystone Orange has “really dominated” the Bay of Quinte Men’s Indoor Soccer League, having finished atop the league six times in seven years, and winning the playoffs five times, Heffernan said. “We’re just very, very good.”

New junior team will hit the ice in Norwood By Bill Freeman

born players, but the rest must be North American. “I hope to have some local players,” says Jeschke. “It’s always nice to have a core of local guys however we’ll be taking the best possible players. We want to field a competitive team right from the start.” The club is currently working with multiple local business owners and have one major sponsor they will reveal soon. Tyler Kelsh is the assistant GM and Ron Jeschke is operations manager. They’re looking for an assistant coach-goalie coach and advertising sales/ticket sales manager. The club will also be looking for billets for out of town players; families will be compensated $500 per month per player. For more information on the camp, the billeting program or team positions contact info@norwoodnemesis.ca

Norwood – A new junior hockey team is coming to Norwood, filling the Sunday night void left by the Norwood Vipers. The Norwood Nemesis of the new Canadian Premier Junior Hockey League are gearing up for a July 30 camp at the Evinrude Centre in Peterborough before shifting training to Norwood. The 11-team CPJHL markets itself as a developmental league to help players improve their opportunities in catching the attention of college, university and junior programs. The league is sanctioned by the United Hockey Union, the junior hockey arm of AAU Ice Hockey. Also in the CPJHL are Akwesasne, Almonte, Glengarry, Ottawa, Coldwater, Burks Falls, Grey Highland, Muskoka and Seaforth Generals. Teams will play a 48-game schedule. Nemesis coach and general manager Mike Jeschke is excited about coming to Norwood. Jeschke was involved with the ColborneCramahe Hawks, but says the Nemesis have no connection with the Hawks of the defunct World United Hockey League and earlier the Canadian International Hockey League. “Our team has no affiliation with the Hawks,” says Jeschke. “Our ownership in Norwood is very involved and eager to make the team work.” He expects the level of hockey will be somewhere between Junior C and Tier II but “level is always hard to determine before the league has played a game...We have had a lot of interest from players not only locally but from across Canada, the U.S. and Europe.” The Norwood Nemesis will be part of the Canadian PreThe Nemesis can sign up to six European mier Junior Hockey League’s first season.

It’s hot out there – and it’s expected to continue

By Stephen Petrick

Cooling centres are open, burns ban are in affect and rivers are drying up as the Quinte region continues to swelter in an unusually hot and dry summer. And the hot and dry conditions are expected to continue for the rest of the summer, according to the three-month outlook report on the desk of CFB Trenton’s Aviation Tactical Weather Briefing team. “For July, August and September we’re expecting precipitation to be below normal for most of Southwestern

and Eastern Ontario,” said Mast. Cpl. Lawrence Austin, with the weather briefing team. He said the trend of above average temperatures and below level precipitation can be attributed to the El Nino phenomenon. El Nino, he explained, is a phenomenon that starts in the Pacific Ocean, where water temperatures are very warm. Every so often, that water blows east and that affects the weather throughout North America, starting from the west coast and moving across the continent.

“What happens is the water is pushed … that causes widespread climate change all over North America,” Austin said. A short El Nino led to high temperatures in the summers of 2009-2010, he said. The current El Nino is longer, as it started in 2014. As a result, temperatures in the Quinte region are expected to be in the high 20s through the rest of July. It’s concerning for firefighters, environmental workers and anyone living without air conditioning. Concerned for the well-being of citi-

zens, the city of Belleville has opened “cooling centres.” It’s encouraging people to visit the Belleville Public Library and the Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre during operating hours if they need to beat the heat for a few hours. It’s also encouraging families to use splash pads, which are free of charge and located at Riverside, Parkdale and Kinsmen Parks. The dry conditions have also led fire departments across the region to issue bans on open-air burning. Belleville, Stirling-Rawdon and Tweed were among the municipalities that issued bans on Thursday, July 7. “Conditions are very dry and a small fire can quickly get out of control,” the Belleville Fire Department said in a statement. “When conditions improve the Belleville Fire Department will advise when the ban has been removed.” A similar statement was issued by Stirling-Rawdon and Tweed Fire Chief Derrick Little on Thursday. “All forms of burning are to be avoided and extreme caution is to be used when disposing of ignited materials (i.e. cigarette butts),” Little said. Meanwhile, Quinte Conservation officials are warning that low water levels in area rivers and watershed are likely to get worse before they get better; a concerning situation considering that many rural residents rely on wells for their water supply. With seasonal rainfall at only about 50 per cent of normal and slackening flow levels on all major rivers in Quinte watersheds, levels are what might normally be expected in late summer, said Christine McClure, water resources manager for the agency.

“We need a significant rainfall to change this,” she added. Quinte Conservation already declared a Low Water Condition Level 1 early in June “We are predicting we will soon be in a Level 2 Low Water Condition and will be meeting with our Low Water Response Team to go over current conditions and weather forecasts,” she said. She explained that the system uses three levels, of which three is the highest. Level 1 is managed through existing programs by the authority, municipalities and other key agencies. The agency is calling for a 20 per cent reduction in water usage by residents and businesses in its region until the supply is replenished. McClure also urges well users to be particularly careful and all residents to avoid outside watering of plants and lawns. In a follow up statement issued last weekend, Terry Murphy, general manager for Quinte Conservation, reported Moira River flow levels so low they could not even power one of the two green energy turbines in the McLeod Dam near Cannifton Road. “This is the first time in some years we have not been able to generate power there,” said Murphy. “Flows in the Moira River are less than half of what we need for even one turbine.” He said the agency is taking advantage of the temporary shutdown to do routine maintenance at the dam. The public, he noted, might notice the low levels between the McLeod and Lazier’s dam, a bit upstream. Authority staff will be standing by to assist any fish floundering in the low water area. In normal operating conditions, the dam generates enough power for about 400 homes.

Group still waiting for refugee family to get final approval to come to Trent Hills non, co-chair of the initiative,. “Now we’re in a waiting game, but we’re hopeful,” he said. The group had been looking forward to the refugee family arriving by June, but now it hopes they will be here “around September, but there’s no guarantee of that,” he said. “We’re disappointed that they’re not here, but we also understand why they’re not here.” The federal government is playing catch-up with all the work it took on

in committing to resettle 25,000 Syrian refugees. As of last week, the number had grown to 28,755, and “more are scheduled to arrive in the weeks and months ahead at a measured pace,” the Canadian government said online. “For all privately sponsored Syrian applications submitted up to March 31, 2016, we plan to ﬁnalize processing by the end of 2016 or early 2017.” Lennon said the his committee is

very grateful to the government for taking in refugees. “They’re doing a reasonably good job at it, quite frankly,” he said. “They’ve been helpful to us when we’ve asked.” The family – a father, mother and two sons under ﬁve years of age – have been in Beirut for more than a year after ﬂeeing their country. Lennon tries to communicate with them at least once a week, with the help of Google’s translation service,

which isn’t easy. He said he expects they are anxious to get to Canada. “I’m sure they have limited funds,” he said. “In Lebanon, there are no camps, so they’re on their own.” Trent Hills Community Refugee Initiative has raised more than $40,000 and arranged for temporary shelter in Hastings when the family ﬁnally arrives. “The community has been extremely generous to us,” Lennon said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Stop ‘robbing’ Trenton Memorial Hospital

Dear Editor, Upon reading about (Trenton Memorial Hospital) it is very noticeable that QHC CEO Mary Clare Egberts, LHIN CEO Paul Huras, Health Minister Eric Hoskins… have not listened one bit to Our TMH Committee and have shut their ears to what is being said. How disgusting. Don’t we have a

say in the matter? There is no ra- given to QHC headquarters is not tionale in the decisions that have being divided properly to the four been made. If you look back to 100 hospitals. years ago there were less people If the LHIN would have any sense, here and yet, there was a hospital. they would set us free and give each Now that Trenton has expanded, hospital what we need, then Belyou want to take away that facility. leville could not rob us of our equipI have said it before and I will say ment. There is no reason for us to it again. We must disband the QHC stay with QHC. They are taking evcompletely. The number of dollars erything away from us. TMH can-

LHIN CEO responds to surgery concerns (In response to the letter from Irene Fritz regarding surgeries at TMH) Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. Although recommendations that, if accepted by the Minister of Health and LongTerm Care, would relocate acute surgical services from Trenton Memorial Hospital (TMH) to the Belleville site, there is no indication from Quinte Health Care (QHC) to close TMH, nor is there any consideration for TMH to operate independently. The proposal to consolidate surgeries in Belleville is a recommendation from QHC as they look for ways to improve their effectiveness and efficiency. The Province’s current funding formula requires hospitals to compete for money from a fixed pot. They need to explore such opportunities in order to remain competitive because if they don’t, they lose money – money that could be invested in other services to help sustain the health care system and its patients.

A review in demand of services for that area identified that roughly 35 per cent of the 2,200 surgeries are performed at TMH – 770 were actually performed on patients from Trenton and Brighton. Overall, the number is low for a comparable hospital with similar configuration. Hospitals need to operate with high volumes and low cost and they have just the opposite. As it is now, they will continue requiring additional money over and above what the funding formula allows, which hurts them each year. At some point that would lead them into a deficit. Aside from that, establishing a Community Health Hub adjacent to the TMH location offers the promise of financial investment, construction jobs and professional development, and will anchor the longevity of the hospital with 24-hour emergency, as well as in-patient and outpatient services as a vital component of the Hub, providing a more accessible, comprehensive and coordinated system of

care. This hub would offer one-stop services for a substantial population. Once final decisions are made, surgeries may not stay in Trenton but the hospital will. A Community Health Hub would support the evolution of a permanent THM site – a centre for integrated community health services, providing access to a wide array of important and instrumental care dedicated to the health and well-being of patients. Thank you again for expressing your concerns. While I know many are upset right now upon hearing of the various possibilities, I am optimistic that in time, many will see what a great opportunity this could be - not only for the patients and clients of which that hub would serve, but also for the Trenton and Brighton communities. Paul Huras, Chief Executive Officer  South East Local Health Integration Network

not work as a “health hub” because that would mean QHC headquarters would eventually shut us down and take everything else away. We have many elderly people here and it is important that a hospital is close by to serve them. QHC must be disbanded immediately with no hesitation. I, personally, would love to talk with the CEO of QHC and

(the Southeast LHIN) to ask many questions, which would put them on a spot and show them how wrong they are. Money is not the issue here, people are more important. Grow up and start listening and don’t do what you want, but what we need. Irene Fritz Trenton

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Basement suites are allowed, encouraged under legislation Dear Editor, Re: Bylaw that bans basement kitchens has homebuilder boiling This isn’t a communication problem. Because some people are guilty of circumventing bylaws once again professed leaders of the community pass a bylaw without first considering the impact that such a bylaw has on a law abiding citizen or the home building community.

My parent’s home was built in the early 1960s. They had a second kitchen in the basement and a root cellar under the front porch. My mother loved working in her basement kitchen. Actually it was part of the furnace room. In addition it housed the fuse panel plus a refrigerator, stove, huge freezer, the sink plus a kitchen table and chairs. Mother was born in Canada but was

descendant of an Italian immigrant. Years later other family members were located in Toronto and guess what? They all had a second kitchen in the basement. According to the Internet http:// www.mah.gov.on.ca under the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and the Ministry of Housing The Strong Communities through Affordable Housing Act, 2011 amended various

sections of the Planning Act to facilitate the creation of second units. Klemencic indicated the downstairs kitchen is not meant for the purpose of a separate rental unit but even it was I don’t understand why it is a problem and/or how the double kitchen issue presents the city with a “huge liability” when the Ministry has recommended Secondary Suites.

Councillor Jackie Denyes is to be commended for suggesting that she is not opposed to revisiting the bylaw. It is a great idea and even better idea is to scratch the whole thing, start over and get input and ideas from other communities or get guidance from the Ministry.

Loyalist College signs on for Canada Indigenous Education protocol Belleville – Loyalist College President Maureen Piercy attended the meeting of the Aboriginal Council on Education at Loyalist recently and presented the school’s signed copy of the Indigenous Education Protocol. “I’m delighted with the support we have received from Loyalist,” said Aboriginal Circle on Education Chair Patti Brinklow. “The college plays an important role in educating students, faculty and staff on Indigenous history.” In order to reaffirm the importance of Indigenous education, Colleges and Institutes Canada, in consultation with its members and partners in Indigenous communities, has developed an Indigenous Education Protocol. Signatory institutions recognize that Indigenous education emanates from

the intellectual and cultural traditions of Indigenous peoples in Canada. They also believe that Indigenous education will strengthen colleges’ and institutes’ contribution to improving the lives of learners and communities. “Loyalist values the cultures, languages, histories and perspectives of Indigenous peoples,” said Piercy. “Signing the Indigenous Education Protocol confirms our commitment to providing educational structures and approaches that support Indigenous peoples’ learning, self-determination and socio-economic development. Our Aboriginal Resource Centre on campus maximizes opportunities for Indigenous students to express and develop their distinct identities through friendship, services and cultural activities.”

TRAVEL

Exploring Southeastern Ontario’s intriguing Rideau Canal

By John M. Smith The Rideau Canal was opened in 1832, and its initial purpose was military, for it was built to provide a secure, defensible route for British troops and supplies. This series of lakes and rivers connected by canals avoided the section of the St. Lawrence that bordered New York State, for that more exposed route could have left British supply ships very vulnerable to an American attack or blockade. After all, the War of 1812 had recently taken place, and there was still a fear of an American invasion. Therefore, Lieutenant Colonel John By of the Royal Engineers supervised the canal’s construction, and it became known as one of the greatest engineering feats of the 19th century. A series of locks was built along the waterway, with blockhouses that were originally intended to house troops for security purposes, but as fear of invasion passed, these blockhouses became simply lockmaster’s residences, and the locks themselves eventually became popular with recreational pleasure boaters who simply wanted to enjoy travelling along this fascinating 202 km. route between Ottawa and Kingston. The Rideau Canal is now a World Heritage Site that’s maintained and operated by Parks Canada. The best way to explore it is, of course, by boat, but it’s also very accessible by motor vehicle, too. Therefore, I recently decided to drive along this intriguing route and check it out more closely. I began in Kingston, where I stopped at Kingston Mills, the most southerly lockstation. Then I discovered that a series of 14 locks still raise boats a total of 50 metres to Newboro (the highest point in Upper Rideau Lake), where

a series of more than 30 locks lowers boats 83 metres to the Ottawa River. At the Ottawa Locks, a series of 8 locks connect the channel of the Rideau Canal to the Ottawa River. I’ll bet that some of my readers have already enjoyed a Rideau Canal Cruise at Ottawa, for it’s a popular tourist attraction - and quite a unique way to explore our capital city. If you take this particular excursion, you’ll pass such points of interest as the Parliament Buildings, the Canadian Museum of History, the National Arts Centre, and Lansdowne Park. You’ll also see Major’s Hill Park, where there’s a statue of Lieutenant Colonel John By (for Ottawa was formerly Bytown). Colonel By’s stone house was on this very hill, too, but it was lost in a fire in 1849 and not rebuilt. There was also a nearby lockmaster’s house at one time, but it was eventually torn down and replaced by what’s still a stunning landmark hotel, the Chateau Laurier. The Rideau Canal is the oldest continuously operated canal system in North America, and not only is the route still used today, but most of its original structures are still found intact, including four blockhouses. Indeed, the majority of the waterway’s locks are even operated much as they were when they first opened back in 1832, for the present staffs continue the tradition of hand-operating the locks – and it’s certainly an interesting phenomenon to watch! For example, if a boat is locking up, the lower lock gates would be cranked open using hand winches that are called “crabs”. Then the boat would enter the lock and attach drop cables that are located along the lock wall. The lower gates are then cranked shut and the valves are cranked closed. The lock staff would then proceed to the upstream end

There’s even a viewing platform and interpretive display panel at the western end of this towering structure. I also particularly enjoyed stops at Chaffeys Lock and Merrickville. At the former, I checked out the village’s one lane swing bridge, old grist mill, and its fascinating Lockmaster’s House Museum. At the latter, I was especially impressed by its blockhouse; after all, it’s the largest defensible structure located along this waterway, and it was originally intended to house troops to provide protection in the Merrickville area. The walls were designed to withstand cannon fire and were built 4 feet thick at the base. This historic building was later divided into five rooms and used to house the lockmaster and his family. Today, it’s a museum with many interesting artifacts and archives – and I, of course, just had to check At Chaffeys Lock

The Good Earth:

Help your trees now

Dan Clost We’ve had a bit of rain and we’ve had a nice drop in temperature. At least at the time of writing this, the most recent heat wave, has broken and we’re enjoying a very cool, breezy day. However, at the time of you reading this I suspect we will have slogged through another tough week. Unless you have good shade cover over your lawns, your grass will look like nothing more than brown tinder. This is a good time to drive or stroll through several neighbourhoods and pinpoint the green swards that are actually green. There will be three probable reasons for the verdant appearance. The first is irrigation (how deep are your pockets?); the second is paint (I have actually seen a front yard painted green in Newfoundland); and the third, and

best reason, is the lawn is shaded by mature trees. A bit of a caveat: the tree that provides good shade is not always the best for your lawn. The most common example is the shallow-rooted Norway maple of which the most common is the Crimson King. The best thing to grow under such a tree is mulch with, perhaps, a nice bench upon which to sit. At Clost Commons, the grass is still green under a black walnut, a hackberry, some neighbouring Manitoba Maples, an elderberry trained to a standard, and a large honeysuckle shrub. Where the shade doesn’t protect the lawn, the only green is Canada thistle and knotweed: even the Creeping Charlie has given up the ghost. Just so you know, Gentle Reader, in those barren areas we have a red oak, a tree-form smoke bush, a redbud standard and a Japanese maple all growing just as fast as they can. This is a very trying time for young trees as they don’t have the deep roots to pull in moisture or to escape the heated soil. They need our help now if we want them to be strong enough to survive the winter, let alone the next month or so. Watering should be focussed on your trees, not your lawn. You can call up the sod farm and replace a lawn in a day but it will take 20 years to replace a 20 year old tree (how deep are your pockets?) How much water does a tree need? A good guideline is 10 gallons of wa-

ter per inch of trunk diameter. So, a 5” tree needs 50 gallons. With normal water pressure, you can expect 10 gallons of water per 5 minutes. The best way to deliver it is with a soaker hose coiled under the tree so that every area under the canopy is slowly wetted and you let the water run for 25 minutes. A 6” diameter tree would need 30 minutes. Another way is to use a large pail with holes drilled in the bottom so the water trickles gently into the soil. (Thanks to Mike Richardson, The Tree Doctor, for this idea and the suggestion for this week’s topic. And, credit is given to the Colorado State Department of Education from which some of the advice is “lifted.” GR, we’re all saying the same thing it’s just that some folks can say it much more plainly than I.) The recommendation is that trees should receive this much water 3 times per month from April through September: if nature doesn’t provide, then you must. Now is not the time to fertilize. Now is the time to replenish mulch; don’t use rocks or gravel. A healthy tree will get through times of drought but it will gladly accept our help. End notes: every day on my way to work I pass by the young folk tasked with watering/feeding the hanging baskets in downtown Trenton. I’d like to say thank you to them – the flowers are gorgeous and they definitely enhance our city.

Local dogs learn how to sniff out rewards By Terry McNamee Quinte West—When your nose is an estimated 10,000 times more sensitive than that of a human, it make good “scents” to put it to work. Local dogs are having fun learning how to put those superior scenting abilities to good use by training in scent detection, the newest competitive dog sport. If you’ve seen the Beagle Brigade searching for smuggled plants and food at an airport, or watched drug-sniffing dogs on TV, you have already seen professional scent detector dogs at work. Now, ordinary pets can learn a scaled-down version of this and earn ribbons, prizes and titles for their ability to detect specific scents on demand. Classes in scent detection are being taught at Quine Canine, and the sport is increasing in popularity, said owner and professional trainer Yvonne Ferguson. “It’s based on professional canine detection

handling,” explained Ferguson. The target odors used in this training are essential oils, and a dog learns to detect one odor at a time and indicate when the odor is found. “We do it very motivationally,” said Ferguson. “How long it takes depends on the dog, but also the handler and the timing.” She said two 10-week basic sessions are recommended before a dog moves up to the intermediate level. A dog is ready to enter a scent detection trial when the owner can accurately see that the dog has learned to find and indicate the target scent. The indication could be a tail wag, a bark, a bounce and so on, and once that is learned by the handler, it is built on so the indicator sign is consistent. Ferguson said any breed can learn, even toy breeds and flat-faced breeds such as Bulldogs. Training sessions are held in a variety of locations, both indoors and out, which means the dogs never become bored. “This is such a new sport,” said canine scent detection trainer Rose Brown, “(but) we now have one (trial) at least once a month somewhere in Ontario.” The biggest trials in Ontario are hosted by Quinte Canine, which was the first to start scent detection in the province. The group holds two sets of trials a year, in the spring and fall. This year’s spring trials were held in June, with Started and Advanced levels on the first day and Excellent level on the second. The trials, divided into working (professional) and amateur levels,

are growing in popularity, drawing entries from across Canada and south of the border. “We had one person drive eight hours to get here,” Ferguson said. Each dog/handler team is judged on how well the dog is handled, the communication between dog and handler and whether the dog completes the test within the time allowed. There are three components, judged separately. In one, the scent is in a container. The second is an interior search, and the third is outside. A dog that passes all three earns a scent detection dog title from the Sporting Detection Dogs Association. The dogs compete

one at a time. Brown said that this training is a great way to keep a dog mentally stimulated, teaches them to focus and use their brain and makes them feel comfortable in new environments. It also helps the dog and owner to bond more closely. Local training classes fill very quickly, so people interested in signing up should contact Quinte Canine at www.quintecanine.com to have their named added to the list for the next set of classes. “Warn them — this is addictive” Ferguson said. For more information, go to www. sportingdetectiondogs.ca

New titles were earned in Belleville by Reilly, Keeva, and Shelley Sterling’s Lab/Shepherd, Roxie (not pictured), while Wrangler completed his Scent Detection Championship at a trial in Orangeville this past weekend.

Summer Company program helps area students become entrepreneurs By Terry McNamee Belleville— While other young people are out having fun this summer, 30 local students will be running their own businesses with help from the Ontario government. “Summer Company is an Ontario government program that’s designed to give students who are returning to school in the fall the opportunity to be their own boss and experience what it’s like to be an entrepreneur,” explained Rachael Tracey, the office and events coordinator for the Small Business Centre. The Centre, located on Wallbridge-Loyalist Road in Belleville, provides business information and links to provincial resources for business across Belleville, Hastings County, Prince Edward County & Quinte West. Tracey said the Summer Company program is designed for students aged 15 to 29 who are in high school, college or university. The students who wanted to join the program had to submit a business plan early in the year. The plans were all evaluated based on whether they were viable and could make money over the summer. Those chosen for the program must keep track of their work hours and activities, keep track of costs and earnings, attend training workshops and meet with mentor.In exchange, they receive cash to help them get started.

“They get a $1,500 grant to put towards This is a big jump from 2015, when 14 young entrepreneurship in building communities. startup expenses, and have to prove they’ve business people took part. “Building a business for yourself is building spent the money in the first 30 days,” Tracey Kozak stressed the importance of employment for others,” Kozak said. said. At the end of the summer, the students receive an additional $1,500 to use when they return to school. Each student is paired with a mentor from the business community. This year, those include Quinte West Mayor Jim Harrison, Bay of Quinte MP Neil Ellis, local business owners, Chamber of Commerce members and employees from the City of Belleville and from Prince Edward County. The students have come from Belleville, Quinte West, Stirling, Campbellford, Picton, Bath, Madoc, Napanee and Shannonville. The student entrepreneurs have created a large variety of companies. “We have lawn care businesses, we have app developers, we have [photographers and we have personalized sign creation,” Tracey said. There is a beekeeper selling products related to that craft and even a person doing aerial photography using a drone. Glenn Kozak, executive director of Trenval Business Development Corporation, said 30 students were accepted into the program, but had there been more room, that number could Quinte West Mayor Jim Harrison is mentoring Loyalist College student Loriann Lebert in creating and running her own company have been 40. “We were oversubscribed this year,” he said. called Lori’s Landscaping as part of the Summer Company program.

Loyalist Training and Knowledge Centre recognizes Elevate Training Graduates Belleville – Loyalist College and community partners celebrated eight graduating students from the most recent cohort of the “Elevate” pre-employment training program. The program is an innovative workforce development program created by Loyalist’s Training and Knowledge Centre (LTKC), and is delivered with support from a number of key community partners, including Hastings County, the Municipality of Quinte West, Ontario Provincial Police Quinte West Detachment, and the Quinte Economic Development Commission. The sixth cohort of the six-week program, first delivered in the Fall of 2014, began in April at the Quinte West Ontario Provincial Police’s Cox Building. The 10day placements with local manufacturing partners Vantage Foods in Belleville and Canadian Blast Freezers in Quinte West have resulted in employment. “We are very proud of our Elevate graduates,” said Loyalist College President and CEO

Maureen Piercy. “Community collaboration and dedication to this program has made it possible for more than 50 individuals to train for and gain employment in the manufacturing industry.” President Piercy and Executive Director of College Advancement & External Relations Dianne Spencer congratulated graduating students who received their certificates in the presence of special guests, including City of Quinte West Councillors Sally Freeman and Karen Sharpe; Program Coordinator and Lead Facilitator for Elevate Neil Dick; Lori Smith of Hastings County Social Services; and Matt Richardson from the office of MP Neil Ellis. Elevate was originally funded by Essential Skills Ontario as a research project, and was developed by the LTKC team led by LTKC Consultant Chuck O’Malley. It has earned very positive evaluations, and subsequent sessions have had funding partners including Ontario RED (Rural

Economic Development) program, the Quinte Economic Development Commission, Hastings County Social Services and Trenval (Eastern Ontario Development Program). It receives supports from Hastings County Ontario Works, City of Quinte West, Quinte West Ontario Provincial Police and the region’s employment agencies. Designed to support individuals who are unemployed and want to find employment within the local manufacturing sector, the program combines literacy and essential skills with jobspecific training for the food processing industry. It has been facilitated by Dick, who has extensive experience in the field. As a result of partner support, the college is able to offer the program at no cost to students. For further information on the Loyalist Training and Knowledge Centre call 613-969-1913 ext. 2294 or email ltkc@loyalistc.on.ca.
