Jamming out for Sunny Days By Sarah Hyatt

Brighton – Local musicians are preparing to rock the downtown this coming weekend. On Saturday, Aug. 13, the second annual Brighton Jam Fest is slated to return and light up Memorial Park. “It’s a lot like an open mic event,” says Frank Blanchet, the founder and organizer behind the event. Blanchet has loved music all his life. He has played the guitar for more than 20 years. He also plays the ukulele and the keyboard. Over the years, he’s even found a way to incorporate his passion for music and performing into his work. As a teacher in both the public school system and the prison system, he’s used music as a tool to reach students. “I’d often play my guitar in the classroom, at schools and in the institution,” said Blanchet. “I find it’s just a good way to reach people. (Left-to-right) Frank Blanchet and Bert Bowers perform in downtown Brighton, on Thursday, Aug. 4. The pair encourages local musicians to share their talents publicly at Jam Fest It’s a tool to break those barriers. In prison, it gave the on Aug. 13. Photo by Sarah Hyatt.

inmates and me something in common, when they saw me playing the guitar.” The end result – students were always more receptive to learning, given that common ground and the fact that music truly is universal. Blanchet taught in the prison system for the last 15 years of his career. “You know, say we were trying to learn about English – we’d pick a theme, and usually, you could find some song that touched on that. This would begin to facilitate some discussion and it made it feel less like school I think.” One of the musician’s first gigs was on a cruise boat in Kingston. To date, he’s more widely known to local residents as oneof-two street performers, who are regularly seen on Thursdays and Saturdays downtown on Main Street. He also hosts the open mic nights at the legion twice a month. Please see “Jamming” on page 4

Jamming out for Sunny Days Continued from page 3

“I just love to perform,” he said. “I like to give back to the community and I enjoy encouraging people to stop and shop locally too.” For artists and musicians like Blanchet, the opportunity to perform, despite the stage means a lot. That’s what Brighton’s Jam Fest is all about – it’s a venue to showcase and share music and local talent, says Blanchet. What’s more, in addition to shining a light on local talent, the event also serves as a fundraiser. This year, Jam Fest will support Sunny Days Day Program – a not-for-profit organization dedicated to supporting people with developmental and intellectual

disabilities. Earlier in 2016, the organization launched full-time with the hopes of filling a community void. Ultimately, Sunny Days stands to ensure young adults with disabilities feel as though they have purpose and appropriate access to support services, decreasing isolation. Blanchet’s wife volunteers at the new animal shelter in town, where some Sunny Days workplace students also lend a hand. He says the impact for both the students and the animals is clear. “You can see there’s a bond between them,” he said. Sunny Days is reliant on donations to sustain operations and also, fundraising has been underway for a chair lift in recent months, to improve accessibility at

the Meade Street building, where the notfor-profit is based and offers programming. “This event, it’s just something we tried as an experiment last year,” said Blanchet. “It’s a loose, fun thing, where anyone can play – whether you’re a singer, a guitar player, both or even a writer. Someone wants to get up on stage and share a poem even, that’s okay too.” People looking to collaborate and just join in, they’re welcome also. Musicians can learn a lot from one another just by being around each other, Blanchet noted. Jam Fest is held in partnership with and sponsored by the Brighton Downtown Business Improvement Association (DBIA). The fun kicks off at 10 a.m. and runs until 4 p.m.

“We have a lot of child performers in town – I think this will be a good venue for them,” said Blanchet. “Last year, it was quite successful. We had a fair crowd – sometimes people would dance in the park.” Musicians looking to hit the stage are invited to swing by on Saturday, get their name on the list and perform. It’s that simple, says Blanchet. The lineup will be compiled on a firstcome, first-served basis. Blanchet anticipates featured music will span across all genres, with a lot of folk, rock and some blues. “The primary focus really is on community spirit and we’re going to make good use of the gazebo.” Sunny Days staff will also be on hand selling refreshments and popcorn.

Trenton Town Hall throws it back to the 50s By Erin Stewart Trenton – The Trenton Town Hall – 1861 turned the heritage café and cultural centre into a soda shop of the 1950s from Aug. 8-12, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. for an August fundraiser. Complete with Trenton’s history from the 1950s, artefacts, trivia, displays, and blue-plate specials with root beer floats, sundaes and milkshakes, the café has been totally transformed and will stay in the 1950s theme for the month of August. Carma Boyce and husband Al Boyce went to the soda shop for lunch on Monday Aug. 8, the first day of the event. “I think it’s great, it’s very nice,” said Carma. “We were quite interested in

what they were doing, we do come quite often anyway, but when we heard of this we thought it was something different.” Boyce said she bought the blue plate special of the day called the Shurie sandwich made with bacon, tomato and peanut butter, a sandwich that was popular back in the ‘50s at the popular downtown Trenton Shurie Drugstore at the time.

OPINION

Malaria and chickens

I had malaria once, and it was extremely unpleasant. I had been working in Yemen, but I actually contracted it when I was flying home on a Dutch airline that must remain nameless. The flight made a stop in Jeddah in Saudi Arabia, and the was parked out Gwynne Dyer plane on the runway while waiting to pick up passengers – right on the edge of a mangrove swamp on the Red Sea coast. The pilot turned the engines off to save fuel, and then opened the door to give us fresh air. It was night-time, and so a million mosquitoes swarmed into the plane. In five minutes everybody had been bitten multiple times. The passengers then revolted and the pilot shut the door and turned the air con back on, but it was too late. I fell ill and collapsed a couple of weeks later, when I was at my wife’s family’s house in a small village in southern France, but I was lucky. My wife, who grew up in Africa, thought it was malaria, and the village doctor (who had served with the French army in Africa) confirmed it, so there and then he gave me a massive dose of antimalarial drugs. By the time they got me to the hospital in Bayonne, they couldn’t even find any of the Plasmodium parasites in my bloodstream. They kept me in hospital for a couple of days anyway, but it wasn’t that bad, because in French hospitals they give you wine with your meals. Small crisis, not many hurt. But the point of the story is that none of this would have happened to me (and presumably to some of the other passengers too) if only there had been chickens on the plane. Statistics can sometimes lead to significant medical breakthroughs. In this case a team of Ethopian and Swedish scientists did a statistical study in three villages in western Ethiopia about the feeding habits of nocturnal, malaria-carrying Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes. The results were instructive. Outdoors, the mosquitoes preferred to feed on cattle (63 percent of bites), with human beings coming next (20 percent), and goats and sheep bringing up the rear (5 percent and 2.6 percent). Indoors, people provided 69 percent of the mosquitoes’ meals, compared to cattle at 18 percent and sheep and goats coming last again. (In this part of Ethiopia, people some-

times bring their animals indoors at night.) There were also plenty of chickens around, both indoors and out. But in one outdoor sample, only one female mosquito out of 1,200 had chicken blood in her. In the indoor sample, none did. MOSQUITOES DON’T BITE CHICKENS. Why not? Maybe evolution has taught mosquitoes to avoid chickens because chickens eat mosquitoes. But how do mosquitoes actually spot a chicken? Certainly not by sight: tiny compound eyes are good for spotting movement, but they do not give you much detail or any distance vision at all. So maybe by smell? That would be handy. We can’t disguise ourselves as chickens, but we could try smelling like them. Or at least have something that smells chickeny nearby. In one experiment, the scientists even hung cages with live chickens in them over people’s beds at night, and lo! They had very few mosquito bites – fewer even than people sleeping under insecticide-treated bed nets. Admittedly, this approach is a bit impractical for general use. Something more compact and less noisy would be preferable. So the scientists tried putting chicken feathers near people’s beds, and it still worked. Then they tried distilled essence of chicken odour (isobutyl butyrate, naphthalene, hexadecane and trans-limonene, if you must know), and that worked too. Almost half the world’s population (3.2 billion people) lives in areas where malariabearing mosquitoes are present. About one in fifteen of those people actually comes down with malaria each year, and almost half a million of them die of it. Many tens of millions more spend a long, agonizing time being very sick indeed. Anything that cuts into those numbers would be most welcome, and prevention is much better than cure. CHEAP prevention is even better, and compared to insecticide-treated bed nets and various experimental vaccines, just sprinkling some “essence de poulet” (chicken fragrance) around before going to bed has got to be cheaper. Essence de poulet probably won’t be on the market for a while yet, but hats off to Professor Habte Tekie of the University of Addis Ababa and Professor Rickard Ignell of the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, who led the Ethiopian-Swedish team that did the study. (Their full report is available online in the 21 July issue of Malaria Journal). Meanwhile, if you want to bring a chicken along on our next camping trip, it’s fine with me. But don’t get the supermarket kind. They don’t work as well.

Now this water scenario is getting dire Editorial - Chris Malette Some weeks back, this space implored readers to be sensible about their water use. Now, it’s down and dirty, life and livelihoodthreatening and imperative that all take heed of the warnings issued by municipalities and conservation authorities. As we reported today, the city of Belleville is beginning this week to cut back all watering of city sports playing fields by as much as 50 per cent, confirmed Larry Glover, manager of parks and open spaces. “We are moving into compliance with the Level 3 Water Statement (issued by Quinte Conservation last week) that demands we reduce our water usage by 50 per cent wherever possible,” said Glover of a staff edict that was issued Friday Aug. 5. “Sure, we have a water source that is the Bay of Quinte, but there are no exceptions in the water statement and that means we may lose some aesthetics in some areas where we now water.” In most all other places in our readership area, fire bans are in effect and in Havelock, lawn watering is now outright banned. A Level 3 Low Water Condition indicates ‘a failure of the water supply to meet demand.’ Restrictions on water use may be imposed by municipalities or under the provincial Water Resources Act. While the city is going to cut back, it will not jeopardize player safety on fields that become rock solid from a complete lack of watering. “Obviously,” said Glover, “someone’s front lawn is not the same as a playing surface where athletes of all ages are running, playing on and in the case of a game like rugby, being tackled on the playing surface. You have to balance the compliance of the Level 3 water statement and the safety of the people using the facility.” In the Havelock area, people are lining up to take water from a municipally run tap that is fed by the village’s municipal system. But even that appears to have come under strain of overuse and under-supply. Havelock council has asked for a meeting as soon as possible with officials from the Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA) to discuss water system usage and an explanation for recent “discolouration” in water that occurred for a brief period of time south of the village. Councillor Barry Pomeroy raised the issue of “brown water” and also pushed to have the public tap at Lions Park on the south side of High-

way 7 shut off, fearing that overuse is putting a “strain on the whole [water] system. “You see people lined up over there...There is a strain on the water system [and] why should people paying for it get second class water?” Pomeroy said. “The line-up across the street is phenomenal,” he said of the tap located across from the municipal office. Mayor Ron Gerow said it’s the worst drought conditions he has seen in his life. “There are waterfalls in the north that are empty; I’ve never seen this and I’m 60,” he said. “This is really serious.” The bottom line – since we last hectored readers to heed their water usage – is simple. It has become dire not only for the economic viability of many agricultural and tourism enterprises, but for the health and wellbeing of many of us who live, work and play in the region. Playing fields, while not a seemingly important matter to many, indeed need watering if kids and adults are going to continue to play on them. Sure, reduce the water to an extent, but these are places where people are doing what they should be doing in summer – getting some recreation, playing sports as they ought to be to remain fit and healthy and they need safe playing surfaces upon which to do so. You wouldn’t stop flooding and shaving the ice at a hockey rink with a Zamboni if there was some water restriction in place? Wouldn’t be safe for the skaters, would it? Same applies to a properly maintained playing surface for soccer and rugby players this long, hot, dry summer. Ask players who have had to endure the bonejarring impact of playing on a parched pitch how their joints feel after simply running and stopping and twisting on those surfaces that have been left to dry and harden. If the municipality has a water source that is reasonably abundant, as in the case of those along the shores of the Bay of Quinte or Lake Ontario where municipal water is drawn from those sources, it’s not a crime against nature to draw some of that water to keep recreational surfaces in decent shape for the athletes who use them. But, for the pure aesthetic value of things like lawns, some golf fairways (hey, we hackers like the extra 10 to 20 yards or roll a dry track will give us) and some ornamental gardens, let’s be practical and sensible.

Hold your fire in Brighton says fire chief By Sarah Hyatt Brighton – A lack of rain and the hot, dry weather continues to cause concern for the municipality – so much so that on Monday, Aug. 8, the municipality issued a complete fire ban. With the hot, dry weather forecasted to continue and due to the extended period of dry weather, fire chief Lloyd Hutchinson says in order to mitigate fire risk to the community, a fire ban has been issued on all open-air fires – campfires, chimney fireplaces, fireworks and any other type of outdoor

burning. The full fire ban applies to all Brightonians and visitors – campers included. The forecasted hot, dry weather further elevates the threat for wildfire hazards, said Hutchinson in a press release. The wildfire hazard has reached “very high or extreme.” Anyone found burning during the ban will be charged – as per the municipality’s bylaw on open-air burning and the Ontario Fire Code, Hutchinson reports. The ban will remain in effect until further notice. Portable propane fire pits, gas or pro-

pane stoves and barbecues designed for cooking or heating are still permitted. Brightonians are also being asked to continue to watch their water usage, says Mayor Mark Walas. “We’re continuing to ask residents to voluntarily reduce their water consumption by 20 per cent,” he said. The municipal website offers residents suggestions and tips on water conservation at www.brighton.ca. Chief administrative officer, Bill Watson, is urging local residents to do their part. “Please, do your part to help us conserve water during this time of GATES OPEN AT 5:30PM drought to avoid having to impose RACING BEGINS AT 7:00PM mandatory restrictions,” said WatUNLESS OTHERWISE son in a press reINDICATED ON SCHEDULE lease.

Team have declared a level 3 low water condition, due to lack of rainfall and low flows in local rivers and streams. This classification is considered the most severe low water level. More water conservation tips for Brightonians are also available via Lower Trent’s website at www.ltc. on.ca. Also on Monday, the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit issued its fourth extended heat warning for the region and for the summer. The warning is to remain in effect until late Friday, Aug. 12. “The message is the same as we’ve been saying during previous heat warnings this summer,” says Carol Chan, emergency preparedness co-ordinator, with the HKPR District Health Unit. “Don’t overdo things, drink plenty of water and seek out cool places to reduce your risk of heat-related illness.”

On July 8, the Lower Trent Conservation Authority declared a low water condition, level 2 for the municipality. Residents and local businesses have since been encouraged to reduce water consumption and to exercise minimal outdoor water use and to eliminate “unnecessary vehicle washing, lawn and garden watering.” On Aug. 3, the municipality met with the Lower Trent Conservation Authority again, and with other municipal partners, determined despite continued hot, dry weather, that the low water condition, level 2, will remain in effect. “The science still supports a level 2,” said Walas. The municipality with Lower Trent will continue to monitor water levels closely in coming weeks and reassess, says the mayor. To the east, on Aug. 4, Quinte Conservation and the Low Water Response

It gives us much more power than having a property owner moving equipment around and fiddling around on his own property. Now we have an agreement – we have a set of drawings that are signed, we have them contractually obligated to things. So we’re

en place. Watson said he had talked over the situation with both the municipal solicitor and the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change – one can bury all the pipes they want in the ground on their own property, he said. “There’s nothing we can do to stop or prevent that,” he said. “What we have to do now, is move forward obviously and my job is to protect the municipality, as we will end up owning that road and will have taxpayers in those houses and they have expectations.

And while the municipality will not be able to inspect work completed prior to the agreement in place in the “conventional means,” Watson says with records and camera work, staff will be able to obtain quite a bit of information and perform internal inspections on work completed and prior to further de-

velopment. An extended warranty period of three-to-four years will also protect the municipality. “By extending or tripling it essentially, it offers us a bit of confidence,” said Watson. Any issues with development tend to appear earlier on it was explained. The CAO says this is also a “fairly significant financial penalty to the developer, because we’re holding onto a significant amount of cash for quite a bit longer than we typically would.” The engineer on site during work, would also carry liability insurance, it was noted. Ostrander doesn’t doubt Cobourg Development Services has done the job it was asked to do. “My concern is with the developer… the people who’ve shown nothing but distain for this municipality in terms of contracting this work to happen in advance of these agreements being signed,” he said. “I certainly wouldn’t want the municipality telling me you can’t bury pipes on my own land. But on the other hand, I wouldn’t be turning those pipes over to the municipality and asking the taxpayer to take on the liability for what I’ve done.” Attempts were made to contact both Brighton by the Bay and Cobourg Development Services for comments. No phone calls were returned. Previously, representatives from the Brighton by the Bay development appeared before council in June. During that time, concerns were expressed over the municipal approval process. Representatives, including Marco Winter said they were losing valuable time during the building season and that they couldn’t afford to wait months to reach and enact a subdivision agreement, nor was it fair. At that meeting, it was suggested, with appropriate documentation brought forth, a special council meeting could be called to reduce the wait. “It appears like they came here, didn’t hear what they wanted to hear, so they went ahead and did it anyway,” said Baker. The point of a pre-servicing agree-

ment, Watson explained, was to expedite construction, whereas a subdividers agreement has more provisions and requirements – it’s a more complicated document to prepare, which takes a longer time to prepare. “In their defence, it took us a long time to move on with this,” said Watson. With a great deal of back-and-forth between staff and several consultants, the municipality does bear some responsibility at the speed in which this advanced – this is a fair statement, not an excuse, he said. Walas believes the tools now in place will protect the municipality. The mayor said he wasn’t defending anyone at the July meeting, however, noted both Brighton by the Bay and Cobourg Development Services are well known for their work throughout the community. “Again, what happened, how, I don’t know or understand completely why, we went from moving earth to laying pipe, however, again, we’ve heard of the insurance coverage, we have securities, we’re looking at an extended warranty period. I believe the municipality is covered,” he said. TICO#50007364

Brighton – Infrastructure work that commenced during phase eight of the Brighton by the Bay subdivision development without a pre-servicing agreement in place with the municipality has recently stirred some debate amongst council. At a July meeting, Coun. Steven Baker suggested the work be dug up, given the municipal inspector never had the opportunity to look at what’s in the ground. “I believe we’re sending the wrong message here,” said Baker. Deputy Mayor Brian Ostrander echoed similar concerns. “I appreciate councillor Baker’s concerns,” said Ostrander. “This developer has put us between a rock and a hard place. One of them being, if we don’t move forward, we’ll have a partially developed piece of land which will continue to poorly drain onto neighbouring properties and offer no relief to the neighbours who’ve been asking for relief for years now – for that reason alone, I’m considering going along with this.” Several motions were tossed back and forth and ultimately defeated, which suggested staff further investigate options in the way of fines or penalties and that consideration of the development be deferred until a subdividers agreement was completed and brought before council. But council eventually voted 4-2 to sign the preservicing agreement. A recorded vote was taken with councillors Baker and Roger McMurray in opposition. Ostrander, despite his concerns and previous efforts to have the original motion to sign the agreement deferred, ended up voting in favour of staff’s recommendation to sign the pre-servicing agreement. Ostrander’s motion to defer consideration was defeated after a tie vote, with Baker, McMurray and himself in favour of deferral and Mayor Mark Walas, and councillors Laura Vink and Mary Tadman opposed. Councillor John Martinello was absent. In a telephone interview later, Ostrander said a decision had to be made at that point to accept staff’s recom-

mendation. Furthermore, the deputy mayor added, despite difficulties, he prefers to work with people. David Green, a local resident, expressed worries over future work being completed in a similar manner. “Councillors Baker and Ostrander have stated the obvious – this developer has made this council the laughing stock and I’m concerned that because he has got his way, could he not proceed blindly in other aspects and flaunt this council?” Chief administrative officer, Bill Watson, noted nothing illegal has tak-

“We get great kids that come in here,” said Finkle. The depot just awarded its first internal award ever to Teanna Phillips, a youth who’s been a dedicated volunteer since the re-opening. The $1,000 bursary is to help Phillips with her future schooling. She’s pursuing a career as a hairdresser. “She’s gone above and beyond during her time here. We’re very proud of our youth,” said Finkle. The TSAUC depot is hosting its second open house in November, where it will disburse donations to more local charities for 2016 year.

Brighton – Staff at the Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church (TSAUC) Brighton Clothing Depot are looking to set the record straight, ‘good things are happening’ at the depot. “We’re often confused with the local thrift shop, the Brighton Clothing Depot, in the industrial park,” said Jean Finkle, co-ordinator and chairwoman of the TSAUC Brighton Clothing Depot Committee. Finkle says the depot has been flooded with calls of concern recently, confusing the 58 Prince Edward St. depot, with the industrial park depot. “People keep asking what’s going on here and is everything OK?” she said. Three volunteers at the other depot were recently told their services are no longer required. Two of those volunteers, have since demanded they be reinstated and have asked the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario to intervene. “There’s some confusion and always kind of has been, as to who’s who,” said Finkle. “Even at the beginning, we use to get their deliveries.” The TSAUC Brighton Clothing Depot, established in 1965, closed for renovations in January 2013 and re-opened February 2013. In late 2012, a group that formerly worked at the Prince Edward Street depot decided they Jean Finkle, co-ordinator and chairwoman of the Trinity-St. wanted to open their own store, said Finkle. Andrew’s United Church (TSAUC) Brighton Clothing Depot “It’s no one’s fault – it’s just the names, it’s Committee, with youth volunteer, Teanna Phillips. Photo by confusing,” said Finkle. Sarah Hyatt. Finkle added she feels for those at the industrial park depot. “It’s very unfortunate what has happened. I believe there’s more than enough business for everyone. We wish them – everyone well. It’s just “Fireplace “Fi l Sh Showroom” ” the names tie us together, even though we are two separate operations in in your Home Comfort Brighton.” Since 1995 Finkle says since re-opening in 2013, REDUCE YOUR ENERGY COSTS the committee has been working very WITH A HI-EFF NATURAL NATURAL GAS OR hard to improve the store – to make it WITH AN AMANA HI-EFF OR PROPANE FUR PROPANE FURNACE more accessible with a new floor plan WITHNATURAL A HI-EFF NATURAL GAS OR GAS and layout, for people with walkers OR PROPANE FURNACE PROPANE FURNACE Built better than it and strollers and to de-clutter. toBuilt be with a lifetime better than it has This initiative was actually spearand receive a unit replacement to be with awarranty lifetime receive alabour FREE replacement warranty plus headed by a volunteer youth, Lily 10and years parts &Cleane Electonic Air 10 years parts labour.

Brighton’s Own

Internationally known Jukebox Cal Earle By Vic Schukov I believe that it was the sage-for-theages Confucius who coined the adage, “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life” After meeting Brighton’s (Jukebox) Cal Earle, my takeaway was that he epitomises that nugget of wisdom. But I would also say, “You will never have to work a day in your life but- boy -you are going to be busy!” Originally from the outskirts of St. John’s, Newfoundland, Jukebox Earle says, “From knee-high, I was always into electronics. I was fascinated with wiring, vacuum tubes, switches and lights.” One day, the local snack bar’s jukebox broke down. A teenage Earle, self-taught in the wizardry of circuits, jumped right in to save the youth hangout’s music box. He says, “I wanted to fix it. I was willing to use my fingers and take the risk of shocks.” He laughs. “I wiggled the tubes and fiddled with the wires until I got them working.” From then on, he was hooked on the internal intricacies of these magnificent

Cal owns over 90 jukeboxes, and it time journalist and writer of biography was a treat for me to see some of his vintage models – a 1938 Rock Ola and some Wurlitzers from the early 1940’s. Their “wow” factor is off the charts: unbelievably beautiful, all in dark solid wood and contoured with brilliantly coloured trim and shining chrome. I cannot describe my joy when he turned one on for me, and I watched bubbles rise up its sides while a 78 record dropped and boomed Singing the Blues by Marty Robbins. The nuanced echo took me back to another time and place: “True sound,” Cal calls it. Earle loves his work with a passion, and at 75 years old age, he’s not slowing down. As I always do, I asked him to share his personal philosophy, and this is the nugget I got: “I can take the ugly with the good. And my father always told me, ‘Honesty is the best policy and don’t screw up.’” (He Cal and two of his classic beauties. Photo by Cheryl Lafferty laughs.)

machines. That was 1959. In 1960, Earle came to Toronto and opened an electronics store. From then on, he gradually built up an international celebrity status in his chosen field of repairing and restoring juke boxes. He became known simply as Jukebox Cal. Fourteen years ago, seeking “a more pleasant change to a smaller town,” he moved to Brighton. Today, Cal’s customers come from all parts of Canada and the United States, and as far as Australia. Earle says that jukeboxes are a relatively uncommon thing, with few people specialized in fixing them, especially the classic models that pre-date silicone circuit boards. Jukeboxes like the old Wurlitzers and Rock Olas of yore stir up nostalgia in people who love them as much as Cal does: “It’s about being able to stand up to the machine and see all the records there, push a button and watch the carriage spin until your selection drops onto the turntable.” Meanwhile, all of the dazzling and flashing lights stoke one’s anticipation of the fullbodied sound about to rise. Earle says that the old style vacuum

Woman fears return to home in Venezuela By Dave Noble

Mayerling Goodrich. Submitted photo

Colborne - Rapidly deteriorating conditions in Venezuela bring tears to Mayerling Goodrich every day. The 45-year-old Venezuelan lives in Colborne, Ontario, where she awaits news from the Canadian government regarding her application for permanent resident status after she moved here with her Canadian husband, Carman Goodrich, in late 2014. Her visitor’s visa expired in December 2015. She has been told by MP Kim Rudd that she will have to wait up to 26 months to hear if her permanent resident status application is successful. Goodrich is scared at the prospect that she might have to return to Venezuela. She is even more terrified for her adult children and her grandchildren who are struggling to contend with circumstances that seem to worsen daily. Goodrich knows first-hand the escalating violence, corruption, and economic hardships faced by the Venezuelan people. She endured a gun-point robbery four years ago in her Venezuelan home in Quaimare, a small village half-an-hour outside Barcelona. “We were sitting down to eat supper with our two daughters when three guys carrying guns came in our back door and bound and gagged us all in the bedroom,” says Goodrich. “They stole everything -money, electronics, shoes.” The robbers held a gun to Go-

odrich’s head and demanded the passcode to unlock the ignition to their truck. Goodrich kept giving the wrong numbers and, after four hours, the robbers finally left. Goodrich and her husband Carman both were beaten in the attack. When Goodrich and her husband went to the police, they were told to pay $200 American and the police would kill the men who robbed them. Goodrich didn’t pay and she says nobody was ever arrested. Goodrich says at various times her house was stoned, and they had to deal with very little food and water. But nothing like the conditions there now, she says. Her mother, Gladys, 62, stands in food lines for hours every day to buy a package of rice or corn meal for the equivalent of a week’s wages or more. Goodrich says people are so desperate that there is violence in the lines and people are gun-whipped. “When the stores do open, it is a mad rush,” says Goodrich. “It is overwhelming. People are starving for food and they will do anything to get it. There is gunfire. The military will shoot guns to try to get order but everything is chaos.” Venezuela is a country in crisis, with food and medical shortages, the highest number of malaria cases in its history (over 100,000 and counting), power outages, and rampant crime (the capital city of Caracas now has the highest homicide rate in the world).

is predicted to reach 1,642% next year according to the International Monetary Fund. The black market is exploding. The country with the world’s largest oil reserves is being crippled by low oil prices, historic government mismanagement of decades of oil revenues, and now, political paralysis. In December 2015, Venezuelans elected the opposition Democratic Unity Roundtable to the National Assembly to counteract increasingly authoritarian and unpopular President Nicolas Maduro, successor to Hugo Chavez. However, Maduro’s allies in the Supreme Court created a stalemate, with the court ruling that Maduro can bypass the National Assembly when dealing with an economic emergency. Now, the opposition is gathering support for a referendum to try to wrest power from Maduro over the economic crisis. Maduro’s party is trying to delay any referendum into 2017 so that Maduro would then be replaced by his vice president until presidential elections are scheduled at the end of 2018. In the meantime, Venezuela suffers. Goodrich fears for her family. “We are worried about the envy of the people living in the village,” says Goodrich. “They know I am living in Canada. I am worried they will kidnap my grandchildren for dollars.” Even in Canada, Goodrich says she must be careful. “I don’t put anything on Facebook,” she says. “I don’t show the people in Venezuela anything. I worry all the time.” Ultimately, Goodrich hopes she can get her Canadian permanent resident card so that she can be allowed to work and send assistance to her family. However, when money is sent to Venezuela, Goodrich only gets a 1 to 10 exchange from US dollars to Bolivars, which means she can’t help much because she says a bag of rice in Venezuela is 5,000 Bolivar. The best and most hopeful scenario, says Goodrich, is if she can somehow bring her family here to Canada. Then and only then would she stop worrying. “I ask my mother what she has to eat and she says nothing. Children don’t go to school. People are dying.” Goodrich is inconsolable. She hopes Canada will open their hearts and help. “Please somebody help,” she says. “I worry so much about my grandkids not eating and not developing physically and everything. Please help us.”

puzzles are a part of the fun along the way. There are four escape routes for those who are worrisome or in the event they wish to exit early, Siwicky noted. Information about Big Brothers, Big Sisters is shared throughout the maze as well. Scarecrows representative of the charity of the year welcome maze runners prior to entrance. “So this year we have kid scarecrows, a case worker, the director of Big Brothers, Big Sisters and mentors,” explained Siwicky. “There’s a little description in front too, which sort of explains the different roles – but they’re designed with a hint of humour.” The scarecrows don’t really depict or look exactly like the director, joked Siwicky. In years past, the scarecrows have taken on the identities of zoologists or scuba divers. The idea to construct the maze evolved in the early 2000s. “We had a lot of people coming from Toronto back then, who would come to pick apples, but it only took them 20 minutes. They wanted something else to do in our area,” said Siwicky. Siwicky and her husband not long after came across a maze in Belleville. “He thought it was doable and we could manage it here on our property, so we decided to give it a try,” said Siwicky. The idea to adapt the maze to support and shine a light on a different charity each year, evolved later in the 2000s after World Vision approached Cricklewood Farm with the idea. And the rest is history. “We thought it was a great idea,” said Siwicky. The Siwicky’s are passionate about giving back to the community, so decided to continue with the idea.

To date, Cricklewood Farm has helped to raise thousands for an array of organizations, both international and local – like the Northumberland Humane Society and the Presqu’ile Point Lighthouse Preservation Society in more recent years. Siwicky welcomes input from local community groups for next year’s maze design and charity choice of the year. The maze opened on July 30 and remains open until Nov. 6. The maze is closed on Tuesdays in August. Hours are Sunday-Monday 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (last walk through) and on Saturdays, from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Beginning in September, Twilight walks are also an option, with hours extended until 8:30 p.m., on select dates. Visitors of the maze are reminded to bring their flashlights. “We find this is often a nice fall activity,” said Siwicky. “Our busiest month is usually October.”

During this time, the farm also hosts its monster hunt on Oct. 22, where kids and families are challenged to find monsters throughout the orchard, to receive a small Halloween prize. While details are still being finalized, Siwicky says there will be pumpkin bowling, obstacle courses and more. The event will also support Big Brothers Big Sisters. “This just seemed like a good fit for this year,” said Siwicky. “I connected with the cause and I think a lot of people do. We just try and make this something that will appeal to the kids, because we know, they’re the ones who are ultimately deciding where mom and dad are going on the weekend.” Cricklewood Farm is located three kilometres west of Brighton, on Highway 2.

Level 2 low water condition continues across Quinte West and north east By Erin Stewart Quinte West – The dry conditions continue along the Trent River valley and as a result, the level 2 low water condition declared on July 4, is still in place for the watershed region, an area stretching from Grafton to Quinte West and from Lake Ontario to Rice Lake. The three-month average monthly precipitation for May through July in the watershed region was 35 millimeters, only 47 per cent of normal precipitation. A three-month average precipitation below 60 per cent of normal precipitation is a trigger for a level 2 condition, said the Lower Trent Conservation in a press release, which is why level 2 continues and has not been moved to level 3 like Quinte Conservation’s watershed areas. “The 18 millimeters of rain recorded at the Trenton weather station last week (July 25) was enough to keep us from moving to Level 3,” said Janet Noyes, Manager – Watershed Science & Services. “But with August being one of the drier months of the year, everyone should make a conscious effort to reduce their water use. We are starting to receive a number of reports of dry wells and agricultural hardships from across the watershed.” Under a Level 2 Low Water Condition, residents, businesses, indus-

tries, and municipalities are asked to voluntarily reduce their water use by 20 per cent. Lower Trent Conservation encourages everyone to use water wisely and apply water conservation measures. Non-essential water uses such as lawn watering and car washing should be suspended until natural water supplies recover. Those who hold a permit to take water from the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change are asked to reduce their water taking by 20 per cent as well. Water flows in local streams have declined significantly over the past month due to the lack of precipitation. In order to trigger a Level 3 Low Water Condition based on stream flows, the monthly average must reach 30 per cent or lower. A significant amount of rain is needed to reverse the current downward trend of water levels in the watershed. “Fortunately, most streams west of the Trent River within Northumberland County have a source connection to the Oak Ridges Moraine. The moraine’s deep groundwater aquifers are helping to augment the base flows for watercourses such as Shelter Valley, Salt, Cold and Mill Creeks,” said Noyes. To assist with tracking the impacts of the Low Water Condition, Lower

Trent Conservation is encouraging individuals or businesses who are experiencing problems or hardships as a result of the dry conditions to contact them at 613394-4829 or information@ltc.on.ca. The local Water Response Team, comprised of local municipalities with support from provincial government agencies and other stakeholders, will continue to monitor conditions and report new information as it becomes available. Updates on the Low Water status will be provided as conditions warrant. To

8 ACCS presents Memorial Cross at Change of Command ceremony

Major Ryan Lizotte accepts the reins of command from Major Allan Ferris By Ross Lees It was a Change of Command parade, but the 8 Air Communication and Control Squadron (8 ACCS) “Gypsies”, as they call themselves, used the opportunity to honour one of their own – Master Corporal (MCpl.) Melvyn Hearns. MCpl. Hearns passed away in February 2015 after a fierce battle with cancer. His widow Mary Ellen Hearns, and her two sons Chuck and David Clark, accepted the Memorial Cross and the Memorial Cross ribbons on behalf of MCpl. Hearns early in the ceremony. MCpl. Hearns was an integral part of a squadron, whose dedication, and mission-focused approach to achieving operational excellence was as awe-inspiring, as are the other 75 members of the squadron, according to departing Commanding

Ryan Lizotte to unpack quickly and fasten his seat belt. “It will be a quick, bumpy ride with lots of ups and downs, but don’t fret,” he told Maj. Lizotte. “You have a superior team behind you, and terrific people to work with you both in 2 Wing and at CFB Trenton.” 2 Wing Commanding Officer Colonel (Col.) Luc Boucher described Maj. Ferris as a “…results-oriented, ops-driven mastermind of the procurement system” who helped 8 ACCS become the centre for excellence in the RCAF. Col. Boucher told Maj. Lizotte his leadership would be constantly challenged to balance work and family commitments.

“The very high operational tempo imposed on this unit is not unlike many other units, yet the nature of your work, and the dependence resulting from our own addiction to computer, telecommunication, and air traffic management systems is such that the RCAF as a whole, cannot operate without you. You can look at it as a job guarantee down the road, not a bad thing,” he stated. Col.

Quinte West seniors’ projects receive more than $58,000 in funding By Erin Stewart Trenton – Local projects directly related to improving the quality of living for seniors in Quinte West received more than $58,000 in funding through the federal government’s New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP). Bay of Quinte Member of Parliament Neil Ellis announced the funding on behalf of Jean-Yves Duclose, Minister of Families, Children and Social Development at the Trent Port Marina on Wednesday, Aug. 3. “Investing in Canadian communities is not only about creating jobs and encouraging clean economic growth, Canadian seniors have played an important part in building this country, they’ve earned our respect and they deserve safe and prosperous places to live and experience the best quality of life possible,” said Ellis. As the former mayor of Belleville, Ellis said he knows the impact many organizations have on making communities a better place to live. “We have an aging population so we have to look after not only ourselves but it’s our organizations that help our

community and help our seniors,” he said. The recipients of the 2015-2016 NHSP funding are The Garden Place, The Royal Canadian Legion Frankford Branch 387 and The Trent Community Correctional Committee’s Horse EM Powered – Communicating What Words Can’t program. The Trent Community Correctional Committee’s Horse EM Powered – Communicating What Words Can’t program received $11,332 in funding. The program offers yoga and art therapy for seniors as well as interaction with horses for seniors living with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. The Royal Canadian Legion Frankford Branch 387 received $22,000 in funding to renovate the rest rooms in order to be accessible and allow seniors to continue with activities at the legion. The Garden Place received $25,000 for their senior’s garden and well being program. The Garden Place will build a teahouse gazebo, a well-being area and raised garden areas for seniors to get involved at its new botanical gardens almost complete in Quinte West.

Deanna Groves, co-owner of The Garden Place and creator of the botanical gardens, said the funding has helped tremendously. “It’s one of the main programs that we are holding at the gardens and it’s for the seniors, so there’s tons of people who are excited about this,” she said. “The programs are all informative but also in a garden environment, so it’s pleasant and inviting. We’re trying to get seniors out as much as possible.” Groves said they will have new programs for seniors every week including the health benefits of being outside, how to grow a small vegetable garden and prepare them, eating healthier and being outside and getting a little gentle exercise. They’ve also taken their programs a step further to include scams and senior abuse, includ-

ing computer scams and phone scams to help bring awareness to seniors. “We’re having raised gardens built so that they can get their hands dirty as well,” said Groves. “We’ve met up with seniors who regret that they can’t do this anymore, well we’ve got a massive surprise for them, yes they can.” The gardens are going in within the next couple of weeks, said Groves, and then the programs will begin in about two weeks. The Government of Canada provided around $35 million through the NHSP program in the 2015-2016 year, funding close to 1,850 community-based projects. Since 2004, the NHSP has funded close to 17,800 projects in communities across Canada with a total Government of Canada investment of more than $360 million.

Campbellford fair all about making memories By Sue Dickens Campbellford – The 162nd Campbellford Fair had something for everyone, making memories while highlighting this year’s theme, “Rural Beginnings”. Leaning up against the chain link fence watching the light horse and heavy horse classes this fair weekend evoked plenty of memories for 74-year-old Eldon Stephens.

“I have been coming here since I was a kid. We always had horses on the farm,” he said while munching on his fries. Now living at Campbellford Memorial Multicare Lodge, he was enjoying the food, fun and festive atmosphere of the fair which attracted crowds of families and friends on what was a warm, sunny weekend. “I always liked going on the Merry Go Round,” he said with a grin. “I haven’t been up on one of those things

though. I don’t like heights,” he added as he looked up at the ferris wheel. “We had dairy cattle. My grandfather had ‘em, my dad had ‘em, I had ‘em, now my sister’s got ‘em. Four generations on that farm,” he commented. It’s the rural lifestyle that brought the community together in the first place to celebrate every year with a fair. This one was no different in that respect, although over the years, as Stephens pointed out, “The fair has

changed a bit. Every year you see different things in different spots.” From the traditional events such as the 4-H, beef and dairy competitions to the children’s activity centre, Homecraft show and baby show, to the newer additions such as the Ontario Planetarium and lawnmower races, the fair was deemed a success by organizers. As cleanup begins, plans are already underway for next year.

Afghanistan veteran holds fundraising ride in Campbellford By Sue Dickens Campbellford – Afghanistan veteran Paul Flowers is coming to Campbellford riding the custommade Victory motorcycle he built to raise funds and awareness about the struggles he encountered after returning home. He is leading a bike ride for the Soldier On program which starts at the Canadian Tire parking lot, goes to Brighton, goes past the air base at Trenton, past the National Air Force Museum, heads to Stirling and returns to the Trent Hills fire hall in town. Soldier On is a Canadian Armed Forces program that supports currently serving members and veterans to overcome their physical or mental health illness or injury through physical activity and sport. “The Trent Hills Fire Department is hosting the event, and we will be conducting registration at the start and holding a barbecue at the end,” noted Fire Chief Tim Blake. For Flowers, the journey of finding himself after spending 3,000 hours building his motorcycle has

helped him and he wants to help others. “At least 90 per cent of the bike’s hand-made parts represent something I personally experienced in Afghanistan. I doubt I would have been able to build the bike the way it turned out if not for my tour in Afghanistan because the concept for everything on it is war-driven,” said Flowers. “Blended into the custom work are 11 photos I took while in Afghanistan, which have been painted on the bike by a great young artist, Geoffrey Coombs,” he added. One of the images “close to my heart,” he noted, is the one of a weapon upside down with a helmet on it next to a pair of combat boots. “This image symbolizes a fallen soldier, and I put it on the bike in memory of a close friend of mine who could not conquer his own demons and ended up paying the ultimate sacrifice.” The ride will be held Sat., Aug. 13, with registration at 8:30 a.m. and the ride begins at 9:30 a.m. For information about the program go to: www.soldieron.ca

Denard Holds Off Hard Chargers For Second Win Holly Denard may have started on the pole for the Junior Sportsman 2 feature, but her second victory of the season didn’t come easy. A hungry pack of drivers in the form of Cole McKeown, and Chandler LeClair were all over the back bumper of her No.02 for the entire 15lap distance. Denard was perfectly smooth over all 15 laps and held a tough group of challengers at bay. She was able to pull away by a couple of kart lengths at race end with McKeown and LeClair battling for second.

All the action took place behind the young leader, who led every lap. Carson Down and Cooper McKeown battled non-stop for the second spot, exchanging the position a handful of times. However, at the finish it was Trevyn McCrillis who followed Tyson across the line ahead of Max McDonald.

Markland lined up in the pole position and ran a perfect race to hold off Carson Down, Cameron Bristown and Keira Turner who all raced nose-to-tail for the entire 15 laps. The four drivers in the division have been impressive all season long, racing clean with little or no contact each week to provide some of the best racing in any division.

Terpstra Tops Rookie 2 Emma Terpstra made a bold move in her heat race that helped line her up on the pole position for the feature. From there, she was flawless in her No.22 kart. Despite the best efforts from second-place finisher Ashton LeClair and a creative Nathan Shorts, Terpstra locked down the bottom lane and drove to the victory. Rookie 2 Results (10 Laps): 1. 22 Emma Terpstra, 2. 76 Ashton LeClair, 3. 20 Nathan Shorts, 4. 83 Koen O’Hara. Greig Claims Rookie 1 Feature Ryan Greig was the man on the move in the Rookie 1 feature. The Belleville youngster took the lead from Jonathan Davidson on lap two and never looked back. He overcame a couple of restarts and challenges from both Jace James and Carson McKee to secure the victory. Diego Martin was welcomed to the Kart Klub for his first race and did well as he learned the ropes quickly over the course of his first night. Rookie 1 Results (10 Laps): 1. 48 Ryan Greig, 2. 99J Jace James, 3. 66 Carson McKee, 4. 60 Jonathan Davidson, 5. 03 Brooklyn Bowers, 6. 74 Lexi Lucas, 7. 44 Diego Martin.

Quinte Conservation declares “most severe” Level 3 Low Water Condition By Stephen Petrick Quinte Conservation and the Low Water Response Team have declared a Level 3 Low Water Condition due to lack of rainfall and low flows in local rivers and streams. This is the most severe low water level. Quinte Conservation Water Resources Manager Christine McClure says, “We have received approximately 35% of average rainfall across the watershed in July. This means that some lake and river levels are visibly lower than they would normally be for this time of year. Flows in the Moira, Napanee and Salmon Rivers continue to be extremely low and we need a significant amount of rain to change that. The Water Response Team met (August 4) and declared that we are now in a Level 3 Low Water Condition.” A Level 3 Low Water Condition indicates a failure of the water supply to meet demand. Restrictions on water use may be imposed by municipalities or under the provincial Water Resources Act. Low water conditions are ranked as Level 1, 2 or 3 based on a prolonged period of low flows or precipitation. A Level 1 is the least severe and Level 3 is the most severe. McClure explains, “We confirm low water conditions using two criteria – precipitation and stream flow. Both criteria are very low for this time of year and lower than we usually see at the end of summer or early fall. Some of our rivers are experiencing the lowest flows we have ever recorded for July.” As part of the Level 3 Low Water Condition declaration Quinte Conservation will be communicating with its 18 municipalities and requesting that they ask their residents and businesses to reduce water usage by 50 per cent. Long range forecasts indicate that the

hot, dry weather will continue into the fall. Quinte Conservation says it’s now essential for residents, businesses and municipalities to conserve water. The environmental organization is asking residents and businesses in the region to reduce all water usage by 50 per cent until the supply is replenished. People on private wells should be especially careful of their water usage. Well owners should take steps to protect their well pump. A licensed contractor can be hired to check water levels and make sure the pump is working and protected against running dry. Water levels are becoming dangerously low on the Skootamatta, Black, Salmon, and Napanee Rivers. This has prompted Quinte Conservation to operate dams in order to increase flows downstream. McClure explains, “We are attempting to maintain a minimal flow in the rivers to support local ecosystems. These dams have been identified as low flow augmentation structures and are being operated according to their individual operation plans. Residents above the dams we are operating will notice a decline in their water levels.” The following dams were recently operated: Lingham Lake Dam Deerock Lake Dam Upper Arden Dam Laraby Rapids Dam Second Depot Lake Dam Third Depot Lake Dam Thirteen Island Lake Dam Operations may be conducted at Skootamatta Lake Dam if conditions warrant. Quinte Conservation has stopped generating hydroelectric power at the McLeod Dam due to low flows in the Moira River. Extremely dry conditions in the Salmon River means that the seasonal weir at Kingsford

Conservation Area was not installed. The environmental organization is encouraging any individuals or businesses in the Quinte watersheds who experience problems or hardships, such as wells going dry, to contact Quinte Conservation by calling 613968-3434 or 613-354-3312 and dialing extension 129. Reports can also be emailed to info@quinteconservation. ca. These reports will help the organization track the impacts of the Low Water Condition. McClure says, “Reducing water use by half means that residents will have to take a hard look at how they are using their water. Many local people have already stopped watering their lawns in an effort to conserve water.

Other large uses of water in the average home are toilets, showers, and laundry. Drinking water and food preparation only make up about five per cent of the water used in an average home.” Quinte Conservation issued the first low water warning this year on June 2. The local environmental agency will continue to monitor precipitation and stream flows and provide updates. Tips on water conservation can be found on the Quinte Conservation website at www.quinteconservation.ca. The City of Belleville issued a statement to say it supports Quinte Conservation’s call for residents to reduce their water usage “All Quinte Conservation area

municipalities are being asked to encourage their residents and businesses to voluntarily reduce water usage by 50% and to consider enacting bylaws imposing restrictions on water usage,” the statement said. “In appreciation of the seriousness of the current conditions, the City is continuously examining reduction options available within the corporate operations. Operational staff has been advised to reduce water usage to essential needs maintaining only those services which protect significant investments and assets. The City is following Quinte Conservation guidelines and restricting these limited watering periods to early morning and late evening.”

Heat warning called last week for Hastings Prince Edward region average person. It combines the temperature and humidity readings into one number to reflect the perceived temperature. The higher the humidex, the harder it is for perspiration to evaporate to cool the body. The heat warning was issued Thursday, Aug. 4, but more heat warnings could occur later this summer, as the region is seeing unusually hot and unusually dry weather, due to an El Nino phenomenon. Heat events put everyone at risk from heat illnesses, but health risks are greatest for older adults, infants and young children, people with chronic illnesses such as breathing difficulties or heart conditions, people who work or exercise in the heat, homeless

By Stephen Petrick Hastings Prince Edward Public Health last week issued a heat warning to advise residents of the prolonged hot and humid weather, which can lead to adverse health effects. Heat illnesses include heat stroke, heat exhaustion, heat fainting, heat edema (swelling of hands, feet and ankles), heat rash and heat cramps (muscle cramps). A heat warning is issued in Southern Ontario when there will be two consecutive days of 31 C weather or more in the day and 20 C weather at night or if the humidex reaches 40 C or more. Humidex values describe how the hot and humid weather feels to the

people and people without access to air conditioning.  Watch for symptoms of heat illness, which include: - dizziness, headache or fainting; - nausea or vomiting; - rapid breathing and heartbeat; - extreme thirst; and decreased urination with unusually dark yellow urine. If you experience any of these symptoms during a heat event, immediately move to a cool place and drink liquids. Water is best. Heat illnesses are preventable. During extreme heat, the most important thing is to keep cool and hydrated. Hastings Prince Edward Public

Health also recommends taking the following actions to stay cool: - stay well hydrated, drink before feeling thirsty (plain water is best); - stay in an air-conditioned place (home, shopping mall, recreational facilities); - avoid sun exposure (stay in the shade, wear SPF15+ sunscreen, a wide brimmed hat, UVA & UVB protective sunglasses, and loose-fitting long shirts and pants); - take cool showers or baths; - block the sun out by closing awnings, curtains or blinds during the

day; - reschedule strenuous outdoor activities or plan them for cooler times of the day; And never leave people or pets in a parked vehicle or direct sunlight. Hastings Prince Edward Public Health encourages people to visit neighbours, friends, and older family members frequently, especially those at higher risk, to make sure that they are cool and hydrated.

Program planned to help Syrian refugees work in agriculture By Stephen Petrick Quinte United Immigration Services is getting ready to be part of a pilot program intended to help Syrian refugees find work in agriculture. The program is being hailed as a great way to help new Canadians find employment and contribute to an industry where there’s a demand for workers. QUIS executive director Orlando Ferro said he’s thrilled to see the project come into fruition, given that there’s a large number of Syrian refugee families moving into this region, which has numerous proud agriculture-driven communities. “It’s going to help the local economy,” he said. Ferro said by September QUIS’s region is expected to have about 70 Syrian refugee families. That region spans from Northumberland County to Greater Napanee, and goes as far north as Bancroft and as south as Prince Edward County. That works out to about 170 people, he said, though he stressed the exact number is not known. He also said the program makes sense because Syria is a country with a large agriculture sector. “It is estimated that 45 per cent of government assisted refugees in Ontario have an agricultural background from the time they lived in Syria,” said a QUIS media release to announce the program. The program will be called Farmers Feed the World. It’s will be run with support and information from the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture Food and Rural Affairs. It will also be run with support from a $49,000 pledge from the Red Cross, Ferro said. An official announcement on the program is expected to take place on Friday, Aug. 26 at the Ontario Agri-

Food Venture Centre in Colborne. Ferro said the training program will have three avenues that participants can choose from. One avenue involves training refugees who have the ability to purchase land and run their own businesses; something, Ferro said, is possible as some refugee families have the money to do so. Another avenue is intended for families who are interested in leasing land and using it to produce products, which they can profit from. A third avenue is for refugees who wish to train to work as an employee at a private agriculture business. QUIS plans on participating in the program by holding a webinar in the September. The details are still being worked out, as the curriculum for the program is still being developed, Ferro said. He’s excited about the plan, saying that immigration agencies from across Ontario are working to put it together. “We’re expecting 700 refugees (in Ontario) to benefit,” he said. He also believes agencies in other provinces will also soon have similar programs, as Canada’s commitment to welcome Syrian refugee families, provides an opportunity to add new life into the farming sector. Late last year Canada committed to open its borders for 25,000 Syrian refugees. That target has been met and by early August, the latest federal government data said the actual number of Syrian refugees in Canada is now close to 30,000. Ferro is encouraging Syrian refugees and those who are sponsoring and supporting refugee families to watch for details. More information can be found by visiting www. quinteimmigration.ca

The Good Earth: Moral dilemma – Should I water in Drought Level 3?

Dan Clost

It’s quite the conundrum, Gentle Reader. With the recent declaration that our area is now considered to be in a Level 3 Drought category we have an increased responsibility to exercise prudence. However, many property owners have a significant investment in the plants on those properties and the lack of rainfall is jeopardizing that investment. Is there a balance or compromise? Social pressure is also on the rise and, if you take a look at some of the online comments, becoming much more antagonistic. Would that everything was so black and white. In some cases, a lush garden is a result of proper plant selection and correct culture, e.g. soil preparation, mulch-

ing, windbreaks, method of watering, if at all. Simply condemning a gardener because their plants are green is counter-productive. However, I would agree that there are many instances where we can reduce water consumption; and that starts with taking time to learn more about horticulture. Devil’s advocate statement: as long as there is a dollar figure attached to water usage then there will be people willing to pay that price. In this perspective the rationale is simple – the monetary value of the plants far exceeds the monetary value of the water (and increased sewage fees.) I make a simple black and white demarcation between gardeners and property decorators. Gardeners are all about the plants. They are fully aware that it is this good earth which sustains us and they take care not to jeopardise that relationship. A proper garden bed will be full of plants that share the same

cultural requirements, e.g. moisture, soil acidity, sun exposure, etc. Within those parameters, the individuality of the gardener will come forth in terms of colour, textures, succession of bloom; or perhaps to be more accurate since not all gardens have flowers, succession of interest. If you examine such gardens you will see a sound knowledge base in evidence. However, it is not always that simple. For example, we have 4 small “bog” gardens incorporated into “regular” beds and the only evidence are the plants themselves. What you don’t see are the containers buried below the ground which hold back the water. In one spot, the “bog” is surrounded by hostas (dry shade) and annual geraniums (dry sun). We don’t water the “bog” anymore than we water those two moisture misers. At the moment, we’re on our way to making a peat patch but we’re confident that rain will come before that happens. Here are some water reduction tips: 1. Decide which plants don’t really need “saving”. Annuals would be on top of the list. Established lawns would be second. 2. Cover any exposed soil with mulch. This will cool the soil and prevent evaporation as well as doing

all the other good things that mulch does. 3. Calibrate your sprinklers and soaker hoses. Sprinklers can be easily done using any cylindrical container e.g. a coffee can, a cat food can. Let your sprinkler run until 1” of water is in the container. Now you know how long it takes to get 1” of water; make sure you set the tap to the same flow. For a soaker hose, let it run for about a half hour and then dig into the soil. Normal soil- a slightly sandy loamshould be wet down to the 8” level. That equates to 1” of water. 4. Spot water. In other words, you don’t always need to use a sprinkler, simply use a wand and take care of the plants that need it. 5. Evaluate the plants you have and considered re-arranging them according to their watering requirements: follow the principles of xeriscaping. In the veggie garden we have used a thick layer of straw and seldom water with the exception of watermelon, acorn squash, cucumber and zucchinis. They are in large pots above the ground which means all the water goes directly to the roots of the plants. 6. Be prepared to follow all municipal restrictions or bans as they are implemented.

Municipal water truck roll over in Tweed Village By Brett Mann Tweed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A municipal water truck rolled on its side and the water tank it was carrying became separated from the truck body, landing on a fortunately empty sidewalk at the corner of River and Victoria Streets on Friday, August 5. The truck failed to negotiate a left-hand turn heading onto River Street as the large water tank rolled out of its cradle on the back of the truck. The driver was taken to Belleville General Hospital with minor injuries, according to Public Works

Manager Al Broek who said he was thankful no one was walking on the sidewalk where the accident occurred. EMS and local OPP responded to the accident which required the closure of River Street, west of Victoria for a period of time in the afternoon. The incident occurred before 4 p.m. A broken drive shaft on the truck, visible as it lay on its side, suggested a possible cause for the rollover. The water tanker was at least partially full of water but did not appear to be leaking and a tow Fortunately no one was on the sidewalk at the intersection of River and Victoria street when this roll over occurred. truck was quickly on-scene.

50 years on, Stirling Golden Hawks share glory stories Members of the 1966 COSSA B football champion Stirling Rawdon District High School Golden Hawks gathered at Stirling Legion for a 50th anniversary reunion. The ‘66 Hawks were the lone COSSA championship gridiron team ever produced in the history of the school, which closed its doors forever in 1968. The Hawks went undefeated 50 years ago, boasting a 9-0 record that included a 16-0 win over Lakefield in the COSSA final. Many of the players went on to college football heroics while others into jobs in and around the community after their school and glory years on the football field.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Splinter in the Heartâ&#x20AC;? excellent summer theatre By Jack Evans Early audiences have been generous in attendance, praise and applause for a new original Canadian play called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Splinter in the Heart,:â&#x20AC;? based on a book of the same title by Prince Edward County poet Al Purdy. The play opened last week to close to sell out crowds for the first few performances, reported Festival Players of Prince Edward County Artistic Director Sarah Philips, who also directed this show. Purdyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book is essentially an autobiography of his early life in Trenton, his break with his strict, religious mother and his tormented relationship with his idol, his grandfather, Portugee. To fla-

vour his novel, Purdy sets it out of time synch with his real life, during the First World War and the heyday of the massive British Chemical munitions plant, which exploded on Thanksgiving Day of 1918, after making major contributions of TNT for the Allied war effort. The daughter of the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manager, Jean, is also the love interest for the young Purdyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming of age.

Red is anti-British, seeing the mother country as a raper of the land and hates the colonial stigma.

Things that wriggle, fly and swim bring smiles By Jack Evans Quinte area residents are wild about wildlife, judging from attendance at recent special events presented by Quinte Conservation. One in Belleville Thursday Aug. 4 at Riverside Park, drew a crowd of children and parents of more than 325, according to organizers. The grounds just north of the park’s popular pirate ship held several tent shelters with presentations by specialized wildlife agencies plus conservation authority staff. They included live raptors like owls and hawks, samples of tiny creatures fresh from the adjacent Moira River, also snakes , turtles and other reptiles and a chance for children to net their own specimens near the riverbank. The reptiles were provided by an agency called “Sciensational Snakes,” with staffers allowing the public to hold various specimens like corn snakes and garter snakes and turtles.

Another agency, Falcon Environmental Services from Alexandria ON, showed various raptors, how to handle them and their role in the natural world. For tiny water creatures, authority staff related how they are monitored regularly and how the type and population densities of the various minute creatures is a signal on how the quality of the water is. Just within a few feet of the bank, samples showed more than two dozen species, some so tiny one needed a microscope or magnifying glass to see them properly. The Belleville session was one of a series of the same presentation held at several locations across the sprawling watershed, including Madoc and Wellington. Authority staff said attendance at all events was large, making it a successful effort to educate the public about the natural world in our own community. Residents might expect this program to be repeated next year.

robert (Bob)

November 7, 1938 July 28, 2016 At the age of 77 with a glass of scotch in hand, Bob died peacefully at his retirement home in Toronto. Predeceased by his loving wife Liz.

A private memorial service for his surviving brothers and sisters will be held in Scotland at a later date.

HIV activist Bob Leahy on his second – and better - life By Vic Schukov Warkworth - Born on the outskirts of London, Bob Leahy crossed the pond in 1971 in search of a career in the concrete canyons of Toronto’s banking sector. He calls that his “first life.” In 1993, things “livened up,” as he calls it, when he was diagnosed as HIV positive. From that moment one, he had an epiphany: “All of a sudden, I went through a period of trying to deal with my mortality. As in, What am I going to do with the rest of my life? Sometimes, it takes a life-threatening condition, to get you to reassess your life.” In 1995, Leahy shed his urban lifestyle, changed from suits to jeans and t-shirts - “the difference between chalk and cheese,” he calls it - and moved to the liberating, open spaces of Warkworth’s countryside. He then plunged into volunteer work. “I began to follow my heart,” says Leahy. “Going full tilt in helping people gives me satisfaction and respect. Now,

I don’t do anything I don’t like. I am busy living and trying to make a positive impact on people’s lives.” Prior to 1993, Bob had no guiding philosophy. Now he focuses on supporting people diagnosed as HIV positive. He publishes and edits an award winning, online magazine called PositiveLite. com, and attends conferences around the world while being associated with both national and provincial HIV advocacy organizations. Leahy says, “Those on treatment are doing better these days. Treatment means that they are virtually non-infectious and in relatively good health, and living longer although the virus will not go away, Modern science has, in effect, suppressed the virus. That has been the case since breakthroughs in 1996.” Leahy’s prognosis back in 1993, was shockingly grim. In fact, he was one of the earliest test subjects for the virus-arresting pill. He says that globally there are 37 million people infected with HIV, with only 17 million on treatment. There has been a lot of initiative to get the number

of new infections down and the number of people on treatment up, in what has essentially been a lingering epidemic for over 30 years “The cause is very challenging and a developing story,” says Leahy. “The history of AIDS is evolving all the time. If it wasn’t complicated we would have it fixed. I feel privileged to have had a front row seat to the story.” Remarkably positive, Leahy says, “It has been a good ride, actually.

TRAVEL

Quebec City’s historic fortifications are stunning

By John M. Smith

Quebec City is a fascinating destination for a number of reasons, and one of these is its awesome fortifications, situated atop steep cliffs, and towering over the St. Lawrence River. The remaining fortified city walls, which still encircle Upper Town, make this Canada’s only fortified city at present, and it tells the tale of over three centuries of Quebec’s military history. Samuel de Champlain chose Upper Town as the site of the Saint-Louis Fort back in 1608, and the area thrived as a French colony for well over a century. Four forts and two chateaux were built here while under French rule. However, in 1759, the British defeated the French in the Battle of the Plains of Abraham, and then the British extended the promontory’s fortifications and even built right on top of the existing ones. The Saint-Louis Chateau, which had been the official residence of the French Governor of New France, then became the official residence of the British Governor of Quebec. The final Saint-Louis Chateau was destroyed by fire in 1834, and its ruins were demolished in 1838, making way for the Durham Terrace and, later, in 1879, the Dufferin Terrace (on which

the Chateau Laurier now resides). museum that’s housed in the former It’s still possible to view some of the powder house and prison.

in 1879) and the Maillou House (formerly the headquarters of the militia and army) are both designated heritage sites that are also considered to be part of Quebec City’s fortifications. It’s possible to take a guided walking tour of the city, including its fortifications – or you can simply pick up a tour map at the Frontenac kiosk on Dufferin Terrace or the Fortifications of Quebec Reception Centre at 2 rue

D’Auteuil and then take your own tour - for free – and at your own pace. I’d recommend walking through the city’s four remaining gates and exploring the 4.6 km. of fortifications. These intriguing fortifications have been designated as a National Historic Site of Canada, and they’re an integral part of Quebec’s military history.
