OVER 60 YEARS EXPERIENCE

BY SARAH HYATT

Brighton — Brighton’s biggest event of the year is almost here. And to celebrate Canada 150, the colourful country festival has added a number of new events in honour of the nation’s big year, says Christine Waterhouse, chair for the Applefest committee. An apple cider tasting at the Proctor House Museum, free public skating at the King Edward Park Arena and a Yuk Yuk’s comedy show are among a few of the new additions. (There will be no charge for the apple cider tasting, though donations to the museum are appreciated). “We are also celebrating Canada 150 with a float contest during this year’s parade,” said Waterhouse. The top prize winner will take home $400. The theme is of course, Canada 150, though participants have also been encouraged to honour Canada’s history, with floats that commemorate the 100th anniversary of Vimy Ridge. The top award for the parade will go to the "most innovative and attractive float." There will also be awards for the "most humorous" truck, flatbed or wagon float, as well as a craftsmen award. Those with top-notch decorated vehicles and costumed walkers and cyclists will also receive prizes. The Brighton Applefest parade starts at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 23. In addition to some of the new events and the Canada 150-themed fun, some longtime favourite traditions and events are also set to return this Sept. 21-24. Weather permitting, Essential Helicopters will return for the weekend, offering residents a view over Presqu’ile and Brighton. The Applefest Kings of Strength are back again this year too, hosted by local pro strongman Ben Ruckstuhl. The event will showcase Canadian and international strongman athletes in what’s said will be a “series of spectacular strength events.” The Brighton Kin Club time-honoured pancake breakfast is also set to return, as well as the car and antique tractor show and Applefest YMCA Fun Run. While there is no minor hockey arena dance this year, Water- Landon Oenema, 7, devours a candy apple with a big smile during last house encourages residents to check out the number of other fes- year’s Applefest.

Help is close for moms who breastfeed BY SARAH HYATT

Colborne — Women who breastfeed now have more one-on-one support in Northumberland with the opening of a new clinic. The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit announced the opening of the new — and free — breastfeeding support clinic on Thursday, Sept. 7. “Breastfeeding is important for both mother and baby, from the first hour of life up to two years and beyond,” said Tammy Thomson, a family health nurse with the health unit, as staffers announced the Colborne clinic. “We are very pleased to be able to expand our clinic and support services into Colborne, to help more women in the area feel confident and comfortable in breastfeeding their babies.” Support services and the clinic will be hosted on

The health unit also offers breastfeeding support services and clinics in Brighton on the first and third Tuesday of each month from 10 a.m. to noon at 170 Main St. In Campbellford, moms can visit the Ontario Early Years Centre (179 Saskatoon Ave.) on the second and fourth Tuesday of the month from noon to 2 p.m. Drop-ins are welcome, but appointments are preferred.

Rotary Notes for August, 2017 We are pleased to announce that we have two new members this month, Keith Joyce with the classification of “Clergy”, and Alan McIntosh (a former Rotarian who has now moved back to Brighton) with the classification of “Retired Army”. We welcome them and all others interested in supporting the community. And, of course, we are also very pleased to welcome Emmy Riktor as our Incoming Rotary Exchange Student from Norway. We are still in need of one more host family for Emmy this coming winter… if you are interested or want more info, just let us know… it will be a positive life-changing few

Our guest speakers this past month included Kristina Nairn, is a nurse with the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit who works with our local ENSS students and is presently concentrating on STOP - Students Oppose Poverty . She works with them to help our youth understand the relationship between economics and its impact on the health of individuals and families. This year on Thursday, October 16, ENSS is hosting STOP. This one day seminar will have about 80 attendees with a goal was to raise awareness about why there is a need for fundraising and why and how it can be overcome. A lot of “Why” questions are asked. It is all about engaging the youth. If you are interested in helping

Jacie developed great friends, especially with other exchange students. She visited Canadian War Memorials including Vimy and Juno beach. Great bus trip to Spain and then Euro trip and memorable Easter. It sounds like once again, the Rotary Student Exchange program was another great hit with life lasting impacts on our Youth.

Our own, Rotarian Daphne Simms has left us for Napal for her (almost) annual trip working with the townspeople of a small village upgrading the education system. She has been self-fundraising (and has the support of our local club also) for many years for this worthy cause.

Continued from page 1 And there will be no shortage of entertainment throughout the weekend, as a number of local musicians are set to light up the town. The Brighton Brass Quintet, the Brighton All Star Concert Band, RandR, Terry Denyes and the Bay City Band and Vinyl Groove are all set to perform. About 150 vendors are once again set to line the Main Street on Saturday, offering residents lots of apple-inspired goodies and treats.

Also in honour of Canada’s 150th, the Lion’s Club Children’s Village will host free events, with extreme rock climbing, a petting zoo, Dan the Music Man, a new all-day photo booth and bike art events. Blades of Glory, Premiere Dance and Jungle Cat World are also set to make appearances.

There will be no beef barbecue at the curling club this year, but Brighton has many great restaurants, noted Waterhouse. In addition to great restaurants, Brighton also has some great scenery and or-

ganizer of the Mayor’s Lighthouse Bike Ride Tom Kirkwood is calling on Brightonians to enjoy some of that this Applefest. The organizer is asking residents to join him and Mayor Mark Walas on either a two-and-a-half-kilometre or fiveand-a-half-kilometre ride through town for the event. (The shorter route is designed to appeal to kids and families who may also want to participate). The event stands to promote physical fitness, healthy living and community inclusion. “Basically, if you’ve got a bike and a helmet, just come on out,” said the organizer. The first 40 who register get T-shirts. There will be water and granola bars provided at two locations throughout the ride, free pancake breakfast tickets will also be up for grabs and some gift certificates and prizes before the ride. The ride is slated for Saturday, Sept. 23 and in the event of rain, the ride will be postponed until the following day. Registration is Saturday at 8 a.m. at 35 Alice St. Anyone looking for more information or to register can contact Kirkwood at 613-475-1953 or visit brightonapplefest. ca. The website also provides details and times for all events of the festival.

We hope to see you at our Applefest Food Booth… this year, we are doing something different offering four different gourmet Grilled Cheese Sandwiches.. come check us out and enjoy a fresh approach.

It seems we were very welcoming in August as we hosted the local Rotary District 7070 InterClub BBQ & Corn Roast on Monday, August 21 with over 120 Rotarians and guests coming together to celebrate Rotary in a social environment. And, on Monday, Sept. 18 at 1:00pm, you can expect to see Rotary welcoming about 60 volunteers associated with the “Kids Cancer Ride” as they make their way across Canada … we will be hosting lunch for them at the Community Centre…stop by, any time after 12:30 noon and show your support.

She is looking forward to experience new things and broaden her horizons and perspectives. She looks forward to a new language, people and to challenging herself to adapt.

New events to be featured at festival

Dr. Gordon Hall has joined forces with Chagger Dental in a collaborative effort to ensure our office is offering the latest and most comprehensive care possible. Dr. Hall is not retiring and will continue to see present and future patients along with Dr. Bobby Chagger, Dr. Martin Guibord and Dr. Kanwar Singh.

out that day, let us know and we will connect you with Kristina. We were also pleased to have Jacie Steeves who was our 2016-17 Exchange Student in France come and tell us about her year abroad. She had 3 host families who she is still in contact with, including many new friends she made this past twelve months. School was very “tiring” with hours from 8:00am-6:00pm, four days per week. Not being used to have to translate the languages and the long hours, for the first few weeks, she would return home from school and quickly fall asleep. There were no sports or extracurricular activities at school. Cell phones were not allowed at school and would be taken away.

OPINION

More death, injuries from ATV mishaps

Burma: Rohingya genocide of 1.1 million

Gwynne Dyer

During the past 65 years of military rule in Burma, the army has killed thousands of people from almost every one of the country’s numerous minorities: Shans, Karens, Kachins, Karennis, Mon, Chin and many smaller groups. But the only ones who have faced a genocide are the Rohingya, and it is

happening right now. Only two-thirds of Burma’s 52 million people are ethnic Burmese, and almost all the other groups have rebelled from time to time because they have no autonomy. Indeed, the original military take-over in 1962 occurred to stop an elected civilian leader from creating a federal state where the minorities would have some control over their own affairs. But, the 1.1 million Rohingya are special, because they are almost all Muslim. The other minorities are all Buddhist, at least in theory, and the army only kills enough of them to quell their revolts. The Rohingya never revolted, but Muslims are feared and reviled by the Burmese majority. Now the army claims that the Rohingya are all recent immigrants from Bangladesh, and is trying to drive them out of the country. The ancestors of the Rohingya migrated from what is now Bangladesh between the 14th and 18th centuries and settled in the Rakhine (Arakan) region of Burma. They were mostly poor farmers, just like their Buddhist neighbours, and their right to Burmese citizenship was unquestioned until the Burmese military seized power in 1962. Since then, they have been treated as aliens and enemies. The ultra-nationalist military regime launched its first open attacks on the Rohingya in 1978 and drove some 200,000 of them across the border into Bangladesh, in a campaign marked by widespread killings, mass rape and the destruction of mosques. Even then, their civilian Buddhist neighbours in Rakhine helped in the attacks. The Rohingyas’ citizenship was revoked in 1982, and other new laws forbade them to travel without official permission, banned them from owning land, and required newly married couples to sign a commitment to have no more than two children. Another military campaign drove a further quarter-million Rohingyas into Bangladesh in 1990-91. Then things went relatively quiet until 2013. The trouble this time started with anti-Muslim riots in Burma’s cities, where there are around a million other Muslims, mostly descended from

people who immigrated from British-ruled India after Burma was conquered and incorporated into the empire in the mid-19th century. What lies behind all this hostility is a deep-seated fear that Islam is going to displace Buddhism in Burma as it has done in other once-Buddhist countries from Afghanistan to Indonesia. It is a completely unfounded fear – Muslims are just four percent of Burma’s population – but many Buddhist Burmese are obsessed by it. When the Taliban blew up the giant 6thcentury statues of Buddha at Bamiyan in Afghanistan in 2001, the Burmese army ‘retaliated’ by bulldozing the ancient Han Tha Mosque in the city of Taungoo. In the same year Burmese monks began distributing an anti-Muslim pamphlet called “The Fear of Losing One’s Race”, and since then Buddhist monks have been in the forefront of the attacks on Muslims – including in Rakhine. The poor Rohingya farmers of Rakhine have little in common with the Muslim merchants of Burma’s big cities, but they are now the main target of the army’s wrath. This is probably because Rakhine is the only province of Burma where Muslims are – or more precisely were until recently – almost half the population. The attacks on the Rohingya, initially explained as part of intercommunal rioting between them and the local Buddhist population, have escalated until this year they have become straightforward ethnic cleansing. The army does not aim to kill them all, just enough of them to force the rest to flee across the border into Bangladesh – but that is still genocide. It’s now well on the way to accomplishing its goal, thanks to a small group of misguided young Rohingya men who formed a ramshackle resistance group called the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army and attacked several police posts on August 25, killing 12 people. They were armed with home-made black powder muskets and swords, but the Burmese government has proclaimed that it is under “terrorist” attack and launched a “counter-offensive” that is the local version of a final solution. About 300,000 Rohingya have fled across the border into Bangladesh in the past couple of weeks, leaving behind an unknown number of dead in their burned-out villages. The remaining Rohingyas in Burma, probably still more than half a million, are almost all in refugee camps that the regime carefully does not call “concentration camps”. And what about Burma’s secular saint, Aung San Suu Kyi, now in practice the head of a democratically elected government (although one still subject to a military veto on security matters)? She denies that there is anything wrong going on.

Editorial by Chris Malette The toll of all terrain vehicle deaths and injuries continues to mount and very few are heeding calls to be more careful on the rigs. News Item: Quinte West — A nine-year-old boy has died in hospital after an ATV accident involving himself and a 10-year-old boy in the area of Carmen Road on Saturday, Sept. 9. Police and emergency services were notified of a side-by-side ATV collision with injuries at around 3:50 p.m. on Saturday, stated a media release by Quinte West OPP. The nine-year-old boy was transported to hospital with life-threatening injuries and died in hospital … News Item: Details were not readily available at this writing, but two people were taken to Campbellford Hospital with injuries after an ATV crash in north Stirling-Rawdon. Police and paramedics were called to Harold Road Sunday afternoon where they found two riders who’d sustained injuries in a collision. Ask any news reporter in the area, or ask any OPP detachment or municipal police spokesman and there’s not a weekend that seemingly goes past without one major ATVrelated incident. So, what’s the problem? Is it rider inexperience, alcohol, young people being allowed to pilot the four-wheelers when it’s clearly too much for them to handle? Improper training? Reckless driving? Could be one, two or all of the above. The cops sure know it’s an issue, to the extent that one local OPP detachment commander has taken to speaking out about it and establishing a special ATV detail to keep an eye on improper or impaired ATV drivers in his patch. In July, after a number of ATVrelated incidents in Central Hastings and the surrounding area, Staff Sgt. Scott Semple, commander of the OPP Central Hastings detachment, said the circumstances of theaccidents are mostly preventable. “Even prior to these accidents, we were concerned about ATV operation on our roads,” said Semple in an interview with our reporter, Melyssa Gloude. “I don’t have to state the obvious. We’ve had two very serious accidents over the last two weeks that could have easily been fatalities, and it’s because people are treating these vehicles as if it’s not that serious to drive them impaired or unsafely.” Since 2015, Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation has given ATV and ORV riders the go-ahead to ride through towns, and in some cases, on municipal throughways where it’s permitted. Semple says that since municipalities have begun allowing ATV and ORV (off-

road vehciles) to drive on municipal roads, there have been some serious safety concerns from authorities. “Up until recently, side-by-sides weren’t allowed on roads and now they are. Though they are a recreational vehicle, people are using them more and for transportation; they aren’t necessarily abiding by the rules as they apply.” Semple says that many riders may not know the rules of the road as they apply to them. “Though the municipality allows them on their roads, you’re still bound by the Highway Traffic Act. You have to have a helmet; you have to have your lights on; you can’t go on a road until you have a G2 or an M licence; you need insurance, plates and all the safety equipment.” There are specific speed limits for those that choose to operate an ATV or ORV, according to the Highway Traffic Act. “We’re finding a lot of people drive them like a car and you’re not supposed to. You need to be on the shoulder. If it’s a 50 (kilometres per hour) speed limit, you can do 20,” says Semple. “We really are concerned with the attitude that people have with driving ATVs. They’re dangerous, and if you’re riding, you need to have all your faculties.” The manufacturers are making bigger, more powerful and faster machines. There remains no specific competency test for the operation of one of them, however, and simply relying on common sense and public warnings doesn’t seem to be working. Much as we hate to promote more government regulation over what we do in the wilderness and great outdoors, there may be a time to look at some more stringent enforcement in the cases of ATV and ORV usage. ••• In closing, I’d like to offer a short word of condolence to the family of John Sherry, Lt. Col. (Ret. CD,) Honourary Col. Ret. Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment and retired high school teacher who taught at Centennial. John died peacefully surrounded by his family and friends at Belleville General Hospital on Thursday, Aug. 24. I knew John for more than 30 years through his association with and dedication to The Hasty Ps and he was a good man, whose sometimes gruff manner belied a terrific sense of humour. To John’s wife, Margaret Sherry, our sincere condolences. To the men and women of the Hasty Ps, our sympathies to a good regimental man lost to the White Battalion. Paratus.

Northumberland County – More than 140 people rode their bikes for better care last Saturday in support of hospitals in Campbellford and Cobourg. “We’re on target to raise $40,000,” which the two hospitals will share evenly to put toward the purchase of priority medical equipment, Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) Foundation executive director John Russell said. CMH will use its half of the proceeds from the third annual Bike Up Northumberland to help buy a portable ultrasound machine for the emergency department. “We had more participants than last year ... (and) more sponsors than last year,” Russell said. “It was a terrific day ... I was really pleased with the turnout.” Nine corporate sponsors signed on for the Sept. 9 event, with Home Hardware taking the lead role. “It was a great event for partnerships,” Russell added.

Riders were given four routes to choose from, measuring five, 10, 25 and 100 kilometres. Calvin Newman, chair of Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation, was among those who took part in the charity ride along Northumberland’s waterfront trail. His group of cyclists chose the longest route, from Cobourg’s Donegan Park to the lighthouse at Presqu’ile Point and back. Northumberland County Warden Mark Walas, the mayor of Brighton, was another rider. “He’s taken part every year,” Russell said. The province provided an Ontario 150 grant for a new program, Get Back on Your Bike, which encouraged people who hadn’t been on a bike in a while to borrow bicycles and helmets that were made available and to go pedalling once again.

Provincial funding for Applefest part of Ontario 150 celebrations BY SARAH HYATT

Brighton — Longtime Brighton resident and Northumberland-Quinte West MPP Lou Rinaldi remembers attending his first Applefest event back in 1981. “We moved here in December of 1980, so my first Applefest was in 1981, and my wife and I were so impressed for a small town like Brighton,” said Rinaldi. The MPP also announced the longfavoured fall festival received an $8,175 boost through the Celebrate Ontario 2017 program on Wednesday, Sept. 6. Rinaldi led the funding announcement at King Edward Park, alongside Mayor Mark Walas, Applefest committee members and Brighton staff. Even back in 1981, Brighton’s streets were packed for the fall festival, said Rinaldi. The biggest issue when the event was starting out was that it was “too big” and “blocking the whole downtown,” and at first, the committee didn’t know how to

manage that, recalled the MPP. He was a bit taken aback by the immensity of it all himself initially, considering the size of Brighton, he admitted. Rinaldi has continued to watch the event grow and has attended the festival now for the last 30-plus years, missing just one Applefest since the 1980s, as one of his kids got married one year during Applefest weekend. “Festivals like Brighton Applefest promote the best of local products and those who create them,” he said. “As a longtime resident of Brighton, I can attest to how much this festival has grown and what it has come to mean, not only to Brighton, but as an important tourist destination event in eastern Ontario.” And as of last Wednesday, Brighton is continuing on as the little town that could, gearing up for the 43rd annual Applefest this month — and with a few added features, thanks to the Celebrate Ontario 2017 program.

Ontario is investing more than $19 million this year — the highest number in the history of the program, according to the province. Ontario’s goal through the investments in festivals and events like Applefest is to boost tourism, create jobs and grow the local economy, as well as ensure Ontario is showcased “as a vibrant place to live and visit during Ontario’s 150th anniversary.” Here in Brighton, the $8,000 grant has helped to enhance this year’s festival, said Christine Waterhouse, Applefest committee chair. Funds have been dedicated to renovating the portable stage area; purchasing new portable aluminum bleachers and a sound system for the entertainment stage; and displaying new signage around the town, which will help direct people to the different areas and events taking place during Applefest. “With the ever-growing strongman

Construction on Brighton Road Swing Bridge starting this fall BY SARAH HYATT

Quinte West/Brighton — The Brighton Road Swing Bridge will be closed to vehicle traffic starting Monday, Oct. 2 and remain closed until May 2018. Parks Canada released its construction schedule for the new bridge on Friday, Sept. 8. The closure will be in place as construction for the replacement of the existing swing bridge is underway. The new, twolane swing bridge will meet current standards, have full highway loading capacity and a pedestrian sidewalk. Plans are for construction to begin in phases, though the construction schedule is weather-dependent and subject to change. Parks Canada is advising the public of the following: • Sept. 8 (on or before) — Road closure notification signs will be in place. • Sept. 25 — Contractor will mobilize on site and trails adjacent to the canal will be closed. • Oct. 2 — County Road 64 will be closed to both vehicle and pedestrian

traffic at the Brighton Road Swing Bridge. • Oct. 10 — The Trent-Severn Waterway will be closed to all navigation at the location. During construction, the following closures will be in place: • Park and washroom facilities at the bridge station site will be closed. • There will be no access through the construction zone on trails on both sides of the canal. • Following the regular boating season along the Trent-Severn Waterway, which closes on Oct. 9, the canal will be closed to all vessels at the construction site, from Oct. 10 through to mid-May 2018. • There will be no access through the Murray Canal at this location and no mooring facilities available during construction. The replacement of the swing bridge is part of Parks Canada’s $3-billion investment over five years to support infrastructure work to heritage, visitor, waterway and highway assets located within national historic sites, national parks and national marine conservation areas across Canada.

competition in King Edward Park … some new bleachers will help accommodate more people, which is excellent,” said Waterhouse, who also gave thanks to the province on behalf of the committee on Wednesday. It’s estimated some 350 people attended the Applefest Kings of Strength event alone last year. Through the 2017 program, the province will support about 304 festivals and events that celebrate Ontario’s diversity, heritage and culture. Financial support is meant to help event organizers enhance programming, activities and services, so they can draw more tourists and create jobs in communities. “Having our annual Brighton Applefest fall festival recognized and supported by the Celebrate Ontario program is greatly appreciated,” said Walas on Wednesday. “During the Ontario 150 celebration, the importance of these festivals and the sense of the community

they provide is immeasurable.” Rinaldi echoed a similar sentiment during the funding announcement, noting how the event has evolved over the years to bring both Brightonians and even former Brightonians together during September. Applefest has sort of become this “get-together weekend,” where kids and family will also often return home to visit and celebrate with loved ones, he said. Rinaldi will often see kids he used to coach in hockey years ago at Applefest. And sometimes, it’s the first time he’ll have seen those kids since he was a coach. Both Walas and Rinaldi also took a moment on Wednesday to acknowledge the many volunteers, committee members and municipal staff for “the great work that they do” with the festival. These events don’t just happen; it takes a lot of hard work, said Rinaldi

Man wanted in assault Quinte West – The Quinte West OPP is seeking the public’s help in finding a man suspected of assaulting a woman on Wallbridge-Loyalist Road on Tuesday Aug. 29. At about 11:30 p.m., two young females stopped to help a stranded motorist along Wallbridge-Loyalist Road, between Tuckers Corners and Highway 401.

The man then drove away, heading northbound on Wallbridge Loyalist Road. The suspect is described as white, 5’7”, skinny build, pale skin and blonde hair with a buzz cut. The man was wearing blue jeans, a dark short-sleeved shirt and a dark coloured ball cap with a curved peak and an emblem on the front. He was driving a grey Pontiac with four doors, possibly a Pontiac G6 type model. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Quinte West OPP at 613-392-3561 or, should you wish to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, where you may be eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $2,000.

Brighton’s Own: A shining example of Brighton youth BY VIC SCHUKOV

Brighton – One of Brighton’s proudest and most distinguished organizations, the cadets, has just returned this week from summer break. And a shining example of its fine stewardship is Jessika Hardy - born in Brighton. Since joining the original group six years ago at only 12 years old, Hardy has risen to the highest achievable rank of Chief Warrant Officer in charge of all cadets as Regimental Sergeant Major. Now 18 years old, Hardy is in grade 13 at ENSS completing her biology studies, a requirement for

her aspiration to become a medical technician, a paramedic in the military. Aged out of cadets on her 19th birthday in February, she will also complete her secondary schooling in January. Hardy is on a fast track: “I am also considering Search and Rescue,” said Hardy, “but that requires a medical or infantry background. I will get the medical first. My final plan is to join the military as a specialist. I like the amount of opportunities that I have been given in cadets.” At 12 years old, Hardy attended two week general training (GT) at Blackdown Cadet Summer

Dr. Suresh Appan & Associates

Training Centre located in CFB Borden, Ontario: “You overnight camp, do some fitness, a little bit of everything and some shooting. (One of her cadets, Jonathan Powers is the first Brighton cadet to make the National Rifle Team, and is going to England to compete for Canada.) It is a step from home with no time for stress (laughing.) And an amazing opportunity to make lifelong friends across Canada, a group of tight knit people.” Hardy’s first cadet-sponsored trip to Europe was on the 75th anniversary of D-Day. She got to walk a veteran across Juno beach and upon returning home she discovered that he was from Belleville. (Small world.) Also, on an international (cadet) expedition in Chile, a few years ago, she trekked for six days through the Andes Mountains, then a day of horseback riding and three days of kayaking. “Cadets is a really good way to cultivate kids’ courage and leadership. I was once one of the younger cadets, and it’s cool to move up and learn. My motto is, Go camping!” Hardy was the first Brighton cadet to go staff at Rocky Mountain Training Centre in Alberta, this past summer. She tells of a medical crisis which earned her a commanding officer’s commendation: “It was my first night shift and I was doing bed check. That night we had a possible gas leak in the training building, and after the fire department came and left, a 12 year old cadet had an asthma attack. I was the first person on the scene. His staff came down and I quickly asked for his file, and had someone call Operations. The cadet was

showing signs of a possible seizure. I had cadets get pillows and blankets, and we tracked down the medical staff. Meanwhile, I held his head still. Then he passed out, and the medical staff brought in the stretcher and oxygen tank. I stayed with him all night, knowing what to do. I’ve done first aid three times, including wilderness first aid.” Her commendation describes this young and up and coming citizen’s attributes perfectly: “Professionalism, dedication and positive attitude.” (Brighton resident Vic Schukov is a long-time journalist and writer of biography books for everyday people; victorschukov@gmail.com )

'You'll be amazed at what can be done' with homes built naturally BY JOHN CAMPBELL

Northumberland County — What's “the housing equivalent to the increasingly popular 100-mile diet”? Natural building, says Tim Krahn, a Codrington resident who's the president of a provincial

organization that promotes using materials that require less energy to produce than the conventional kind, to construct houses that require less energy to heat or cool. People are choosing to live in homes “crafted from minimally processed, renewable and local materials,” such as straw bales, for more than their energy efficiency, he said in a news release announcing the Ontario Natural Building Coalition's annual self-guided tour of natural homes Sept. 24. They also prefer “the healthiness of the materials” and are drawn to the homes' “architecturally interesting and unique” designs, he stated. The tour “is the perfect opportunity to step right inside some natural buildings, see what they are like, and get honest feedback from the owners about all aspects of their homes,” Krahn said.

Codrington resident Tim Krahn is president of the Ontario Natural Building Coalition, which has approximately 200 members. Photo submitted

Most of the structures feature other green technologies as well, “including solar and wind electricity, composting toilets, earthen plasters, green roofs, natural finishes and other innovations.” Krahn, a professional engineer and partner in Building Alternatives Inc., said “more than 500 natural homes, offices, additions and even institutional buildings have been constructed in Ontario over the last several years.” Natural building has experienced “a very slow, steady growth” in Ontario, he said in an interview. “I don't think c o nve n t i o n a l building is in any danger of being run over. We have a very small part of the market.” The tour “is the biggest sell that we have” to promote interest in natural building which

In addition, Anne is one of our Bilingual agents enabling her to communicate with clients only speaking French. Anne and her husband Don are also proud parents of their kids Molly and Colton.

“tends to be less mechanized” and encourages people to work with their hands. “We're starting to have gender equity (where) both men and women feel empowered to build their own houses, their own buildings.” The cost of the tour is a $10 passport, available online at www.naturalbuildingcoalition.ca, which will provide access to as many places across the province as can be seen in a day, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Directions and other tour details are available at the website. Passports can also

be purchased by calling 613-6333557 before the day of the tour. There are 25 natural homes on the tour, including four in Northumberland — two in Cobourg, one at Castleton and another near Warkworth. Most are straw bale homes, with several being off the grid as well. “It's always good to see what's close by that you may not have known was there and to meet people who have built their own building,” Krahn said. You will “be amazed at what can be done.”

Campbellford — Two local businesses have figured out how to turn scrap metal into new hospital equipment — and there's no alchemy involved. Exhaust Plus in Campbellford and Brighton Recycling do it by donating $100 to Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation for every full bin of scrap metal they sell. The container, located at Exhaust Plus on Grand Road, gets filled by area residents ridding themselves of products made of metal they no longer want. People drop off “everything from appliances to old bikes (and) barbecues,” as well as bath tubs and sinks, said Steve Redden, co-owner of the exhaust system repair business. The value of scrap metal is “pretty good right now,” averaging about $140 a tonne, Redden said, with the prices paid for copper, lead, brass, stainless steel and aluminum being at the higher end. Redden has to have a bin for his business anyway so accepting scrap metal from residents “was a good complement, for the community, and the hospital sure needs the money,” said Scott Blackburn, owner of Brighton Recycling. Most of the scrap metal collected is taken to a steel mill in Whitby where it's “turned into reusable steel billets or rebar for construction,” he said. “We're really thrilled that both Brighton Recycling and Exhaust Plus (have) done this for the foundation,” executive director John Russell said. “We encourage everybody to clean out their garages and drop your metal off here, because (some of the money earned) is ... going back to the community.” The funds will be put toward the purchase of high priority equipment such as a $40,000 portable ultrasound machine to replace one being used in the emergency department. Redden said the bin gets filled twice a month on average, with each load weighing four to five tonnes. BMR donated the sign that lets people know their dropping off scrap metal at Exhaust Plus helps the hospital. “There's a fair a bit of work” to keep the site clean, and to compact the material tossed in the bin, Redden said. “You try to keep people from dropping off (household) garbage and we're pretty fortunate ... it doesn't happen that often here,” he said. “It would be nice if people weren't using (the bin) for their own personal shopping centre,” he added. Barbecue propane tanks are not accepted because they pose a danger, and if they ever get “mixed in with our scrap stream, it would cost me thousands of dollars,” Blackburn said, because “we're penalized (for causing) problems at the other end.” Redden was surprised recently to discover someone had tossed a Henri Selmer brass alto saxophone into the bin. He did some research online and found out it was worth $10,000. It's now being restored in Toronto.


Warkworth Fall Fair’s new attractions – and sun – boost attendance BY JOHN CAMPBELL

Warkworth – Sunny days and new attractions helped boost attendance at the Warkworth Fall Fair to its highest level in three years, said the president of the Percy Agricultural Society. “We had at least 7,500,” said Greg Torrance. The 30-minute fireworks display on opening night overseen by Brad Milligan was a huge draw, “one of the biggest hits there’s been around here in a long time,” he said, and “everybody seemed to love” the firefighters’ demonstration of an extrication earlier in the evening. “The kids really got a kick out of seeing the car torn apart, that made their day,” he said. “One of the real highlights of the weekend was the axe throwing event that (board director) Ian Leblanc put on,” Torrance continued. “It was really quite a sight.”

Brighton Paint & Blinds • Elite • Graber • Hunter Douglas

Kitchen Magic, also new, in which beef and pork dishes were prepared in public for fair-goers to sample, was “a real big hit” as well, he added. Northumberland Cattlemen’s Association donated beef and Foodland Ontario provided a grant for the event. The elimination draw for a 2017 Nissan Sentra had a happy outcome for Torrance.

Pickleball lines will not be added to Brighton tennis courts BY SARAH HYATT

Brighton — Players who had their hearts set on having pickleball lines added to the municipal tennis courts have heard that it will not happen. Following a report from staff and months of discussion surrounding both pickleball and tennis players potentially sharing space at the tennis courts, council is now suggesting pickleball players form together and return to council once they’re able to offer some type of assistance and a plan. “At this point, I don’t see them as an organized team,” said Coun. Mary Tadman, who made the motion that council take no action for now, until such a time when pickleball players can return to council and work as a partner with the municipality. In other words, council will not OK pickleball lines on the tennis courts. Tadman said she wanted to see “a little more commitment” from pickleball players before council moved forward with “monies from the taxpayers of Brighton.” Council was unanimous in its decision to leave things more or less status quo, after hearing about three options

from staff to accommodate both pickleball and tennis players. “I concur with Coun. Tadman,” said Coun. Brian Ostrander, who seconded the motion. “I would simply add that other sports organizations in the community, when they want to maintain (or) add operational facilities, often come forward with assistance (and) financial assistance to apply for grants and work closely with municipal staff to end up getting what they want done.” In his report, director of parks and recreation Jim Millar echoed a similar sentiment, following meetings with groups and a review of information. Most organized groups that come before council prepare a financial plan and ask council to partner with the group to get an item accomplished for the community’s benefit, he said. This has not been the approach with pickleball players to this point, he added. Back in July, an estimated 35 supporters and pickleball players filled the community centre as Judith Noack and Laura Quirke asked council for its support for dual-use courts at King Edward Park.

During this presentation, players said the shared court in Gosport for pickleball and basketball made it challenging to get time on the courts initially, and that uneven and roughly-patched asphalt caused concerns for safety. Several pickleball players now say they travel to Trenton to play. The pickleball court was just recently constructed in Gosport, following a request from an individual representing the pickleball community back in 2015, according to staff. “Staff felt the group was happy that this was completed and the pickleball courts were used in 2016,” said Millar. In July, pickleball players made it clear they weren’t a club and didn't really want to be one, but instead are “Brighton taxpayers who want fairminded, local access to the fastestgrowing sport in North America.” Millar reports a survey went out to the public and staff has reviewed those results. From the survey, 29 people responded they already play pickleball, another 96 said they would like to try the sport and 73 said they want to be supportive. He estimates it would cost about $1,500 to add

lines to the tennis courts, but the groups would have to share and adhere to scheduled times. “Staff feels choosing this option would only be a temporary solution to one problem and potentially cause other issues down the line, as growth of the sport would cause acrimony and conflict over space,” said Millar. As both sports and the population continue to grow, a separate space for each sport would be best long-term, added Millar. And while pickleball players said they were willing to work around tennis times, Millar’s research suggests where there is a strong tennis presence, there’s normally separate facilities for each sport. Leading up to council’s decision, the Brighton Tennis Club also expressed concerns in the wake of the pickleball players’ request, saying usage of both club and public time has already been approaching capacity. Further allocation to the courts and changes would be the detriment of tennis, said club president Karl Dyer. Based on survey results, Millar reports the pickleball group has the potential to be organized like other local sports and to follow the same financial formula. Alike to the tennis

club, the director says the group could work to have the sport of pickleball played on its own designated courts in Gosport or at another location. The basketball nets could also potentially be relocated and Brighton could provide seed funding toward renovating the Gosport site; with other funding streams, courts could also be renovated and increased in size. To renovate and increase the Gosport courts, Millar estimated costs at between $36,000 and $40,000 without lighting options. Council isn’t demanding pickleball players form a club, Ostrander clarified. However, he did stress that tennis, soccer and skating clubs, as well as minor hockey, all come to council as a “funding and work partner.” Those groups pay fees to use the municipally owned fields and arenas — and when the soccer club needs lights and irrigation systems, for example, the club comes to council as a partner, so the taxpayer isn’t burdened with those costs, he said. While staff has identified no “huge safety issues” on Gosport courts to date, council has asked staff to take another look at safety concerns for pickleball players.

Repair work totalling $50,000 completed at Brighton tennis courts BY SARAH HYATT

Brighton — With repairs finally complete, tennis players officially have a new space at the courts at King Edward Park. On Wednesday, Sept. 6, the Brighton Tennis Club — alongside Northumberland-Quinte West MPP Lou Rinaldi, Mayor Mark Walas, municipal staff and Ontario Trillium Foundation representative Jamie Simmons — celebrated the completion of about $50,000 worth of repairs done at the tennis courts. “When community infrastructure is improved, everyone benefits,” said Rinaldi on Wednesday. “Our government has made a strong commitment to upgrading public infrastructure and we continue to realize its importance, particularly in small communities across Ontario.” The province kicked in $25,000 through the Ontario150 Community Capital Program to help repair and revamp the Brighton tennis courts and to help with the purchase of new LED sport lights. Ontario is investing about $25

million through the program and supporting about 203 capital projects in honour of its 150th anniversary, looking to help “better community spaces.” It’s said the $25 million provincial investment will result in almost 1.4 million sq. ft of renovated community space, along with more than 36,000 hours of additional availability for physical activity and arts programming. The Ontario Trillium Foundation administers the capital program. Rinaldi was “delighted” on Wednesday to see the tennis courts receive a much-needed “facelift,” as he visited and mingled with tennis players and discussed the details surrounding the province’s investment. This was a very competitive process, he said, as he congratulated the club and town on securing the funding. He also commended club members and municipal staff for their efforts and work to see the courts revitalized. The courts were built in the early 1970s and major work was

completed about 15 years ago. Work just completed included crack repairs, resurfacing, lining and painting of the courts, lighting upgrades and new windscreens, along with new posts and netting. In addition to the $25,000 from the province, the tennis club put up $5,000 and the municipality $20,000 to complete the project. And while the weather this summer put the project behind a bit, with work originally slated to start in July rather than August, no one was complaining last Wednesday while looking around at the brightened courts. Director of parks and recreation Jim Millar said work is currently about 99 per cent complete. All that remains is to do a walk-around with the contractors, as a few areas which require some tweaking have been identified, he said. None of that is stopping tennis players from using the court at this time. A strong partnership is what made improvements possible at the Brighton courts, said Walas.

New committee hopes to upgrade Brighton skate park BY SARAH HYATT

Brighton — A new group of Brightonians is pushing to create change in their community for youth and for upgrades to the King Edward skate park. “This is going to be a long haul,” admits Kathy McCormick. Kathy and George McCormick — with their Harry’s Hots hotdog cart — have been fundraising for Brighton youth in recent months, looking to help with much-needed repairs and equipment for the skate park. In addition, within the last month or so, a Brighton skate park committee has now also formed, council recently heard. Kathy says Brighton youth are often travelling to places like Trenton or Frankford, to use the skate parks there “and it’s pretty sad, because we do have a skate park here.” Tania Light, who will serve as a head of the new committee, recently wrote to council about the group’s hopes for the community and how the group would like to see change. With fundraising already underway, with help from the McCormicks,

the committee is also already working closely with director of parks and recreation Jim Millar, said Light. “We feel it is not only necessary, it’s crucial for our youth to have a functional space to call their own,” Light told council. “Our King Edward Park is home to a new state-of-the-art splash pad, tennis courts, soccer fields, baseball diamonds and a concession stand.” Light and the committee want to see the skate park upgraded and improved to reflect the same message and so the park supports good health, physical fitness, sportsmanship and fun for all. “By failing to do so, we send a message to our youth that such activities are not worthy of an upgrade, perpetuating the negative attitude toward these young people,” said Light. The Brighton skate park was constructed in the 2000s and at that time, it was the first one in the area. But since then, Trenton, Campbellford, Frankford and Warkworth have built skate parks which are far superior and challenging enough to keep the attraction of even older youth, across all modes of

sports, whether it be BMX bikes, scooters, in-line skating or skateboarding, said Light. Back sometime in 2011-2012, Light recalled there was a push to add additional ramps and to expand space, to create a more challenging skate park. The proposed additions were also to accommodate youth who ride BMX bikes, scooters and in-line skaters. Brighton students even provided council with a petition and a design for a renovated space. While monies were set-aside in a reserve following that, nothing happened, as no one in the community stepped up to organize a committee and a subsequent application to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for funding and for the expansion was denied, said Light.

equipment could go a long way at the skate park. With more than 500 students at Brighton Public School last year and some 950 at East Northumberland Secondary School, that’s a lot of kids and youth who could be potentially using the skate park and benefiting from an improved space, Light told council. While just starting out and setting up plans, the committee is hopeful to get the town’s support going forward. Anyone looking to donate to the cause or wanting to help out is encouraged to do just that. The McCormicks will be at Cheer Farms with their hotdog cart until the end of the month and also at Applefest. For every hotdog sold, they’re donating $1 toward an improved skate park for Brighton.

8 Wing swinging into action to raise funds for United Way BY MAKALA CHAPMAN

8 Wing Trenton is once again swinging into action to help the United Way at this year’s Wing Commander’s Invitational Golf Tournament. The charity event, which also kicked off the annual Government of Canada Workplace Charity Campaign (GCWCC), saw more than 140 golfers hit the green at Roundel Glen Golf Course on Sept. 7. The GCWCC is an annual initiative that was created exclusively for federal public servants and federal retirees looking to make charitable contributions in their communities. Last year, Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Trenton raised more than $125,000 through various events they held in support of the campaign, with $29.8 million raised overall across the country. “We’re very humbled by the generosity of 8 Wing and it’s an incredible show of support,” said United Way of Quinte’s executive director Kathy Murphy. “It’s a big help to the community.” Murphy noted that between the communities of Hastings and Prince Edward County, there are roughly 40,000 people who are living with food insecurity, poverty and other economic issues. With one in three people touched by the services of the United Way’s programming, she added that events aimed at rallying funding were especially crucial. “We have a lot of work to do,” said Murphy, “but lots of support to give to families and kids in need. We want to make sure people are equipped for success.” Just in time for the tee off, a CH-146 Griffon Helicopter emerged from the sky as a search and rescue technician rappelled to the ground to deliver the wing commander his ball. Not to be outdone by his predecessor Col. Colin Keiver at last year’s tournament, Col. Mark Goulden swung his club and lobbed the ball off into the distance. Before his shot, Goulden had jokingly noted that the former wing commander had previously admitted to last year’s shot being a “complete fluke.” As for the event itself, Goulden said he was honoured to be supporting the United Way. Having grown up in Quinte West, Goulden added that it was especially nice to be helping out the community he has called home for so long.

“This is one of the best communities in the world and I’m very, very excited to give something back,” he said. “A stronger community is a good thing for us as a base.” Also in attendance at the golf course was the base’s GCWCC chair Maj. Christopher Hepburn. Echoing Goulden’s sentiments, Hepburn said supporting the community was essential. “We are all here and have kids that go to school or family members in the area,” he said. “It’s really important for us to have a strong community.” He added that during the canvasing period, the base’s personal goal is always to get 100 per cent participation from its members. “Our focus this year is to try and get to as many people as possible,” he said. “It doesn’t how much they give, we just want them to give something because every little bit counts.” While about half of the base’s financial contributions come from canvassing, he explained that the other half is made up from the various events the base holds throughout the campaign period. These events, which are open to the public, include the GCWCC slo-pitch tournament on Sept. 21 -22 at the 8 Wing Trenton baseball diamonds and the GCWCC four-on-four hockey tournament from Nov. 16-17 at the Flyers

Rainbow Caregivers Network creating allies for LGBTQIA community BY STEPHEN PETRICK

Belleville – The story about Jackie Dales’ son must be told carefully, with the right words. He was assigned as a female at birth. Today, he asks people refer to him as a he. When you’re close with a member of the LGBTQIA community – especially if it’s someone who identifies as transgendered – it’s important to understand the right terms and a language to use, so not to offend. And something as simple as using preferred pronouns can make a huge difference in helping a person overcome the discrimination they’ve experienced. That’s something Dales, knows through her own experience of raising 15-year-old Ian. And it’s something she continues to learn more about, through her role with the Rainbow Caregivers Network, a new support group for caregivers of people in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, questioning, intersex and asexual (LGBTQIA) community. “We offer an environment where you can talk about your concerns, your fears, your lack of understanding,” said Dales, who founded the group. “You can share those intimate things that you may not want to share with the person you’re providing care to. Our goal at the end of

Jackie Dales, is wrapped in the “trans” flag and pictured by a mural near the CMHA office in the 41 Octavia St. building. Dales is a founder of the Rainbow Caregivers Network, which meets in the building regularly. Stephen Petrick/Metroland

the day is to create strong allies for people in the LGBT community.” The group meets every Mondays, from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Canadian Mental Health

Association office at 41 Octavia St. in Belleville. Plans are in the works to make upcoming sessions more expanded educational experiences. Organizers hope, by October,

to have speakers visit regularly to speak about issues such as sexual health and psychology. Dales said, right now, there are a small number of regular attendees who meet to talk and

share stories in a safe setting. But, more are welcome. “We’re interested in letting people know that we’re here; and we’re hear to help,” she said. Dales felt the need to start such a group about a year ago when her son Ian “came out” to her and revealed that he never felt comfortable as a female. She’s since learned about what support systems are available for her son, from both an emotional and medical standpoint. But the experience was also the start for a journey for her on how to respect her child’s wishes and make him feel good about himself. At age 14, the boy stopped using the name he was given at birth and started publicly referring to himself as Ian. Dales learned that, respecting that decision, is a way she can acknowledge his identity. She also carefully explained that it wouldn’t be correct to say “Ian was born a girl” or “now chooses to live as a boy.” “This is not a decision – this is their identity,” she said. “Nobody chooses to be transgendered. “Even though we’ve assigned them a gender, by looking at their genitalia, they don’t identify with that gender.

New group offering support for caregivers Continued from page 1 Dales said learning these things was an eye-opener for her, as she had no previous experience in her personal life of caring for a family member, who’s part of the LGBTQIA community. . It’s a challenge for many, she acknowledges, but it’s one that can be overcome. “There really is a whole language associated with the trans community – understanding language and what words mean. There’s a huge bridge between understanding their experience. “As people who aren’t transgendered, we don’t have any sort of context for what our kids are going through.” Today, Dales has faith that Ian will grow up around supportive people in a supportive community. Canada’s recent passing of Bill C-16, which updates

the Charter of Human Rights to include the terms “gender identity” and “gender expressions” sets the stage for more respectful treatment of transgendered people. It’s a stark contract to some recent policies in the United States, which have alarmed human rights advocates, such as North Carolina’s controversial “bathroom bill” (which was recently repealed).

Dales also believes there’s a strong network of LGBTQIA people and allies in the Quinte region. She gleefully shared the story of how a teacher at Ian’s school, Bayside Secondary School, helped him feel respected. Ian was struggling in a gym class, so he was offered a chance to move to a drama class. “The teacher greeted him, asked him his name and asked him what pronouns he uses. That was a profound moment for him … It was the first time a person in a

position of authority not only accepted, but respected, his identity.” The Rainbow Caregivers Network hopes to foster this type of positive interaction. And Dales believes that any person who makes an effort to learn and understand, should be commended, even if it’s not easy and even if it takes some time. “People are really accepting of the notion that there are people in the world who’ve never met people who are transgendered. “They understand that getting their head around it, when they have no context personally (is challenging). It’s a journey, it’s a learning experience,” she said. For more information on the group, contact Dales at 613-849-4641 or follow the Facebook page, www.facebook.com/RainbowCaregivers/.

Afghanistan veteran, children meet Cobourg veterans BY KAREN LONGWELL, NORTHUMBERLAND NEWS

Cobourg — The group of volunteers who helped install new signs along the Highway Heroes came to a Cobourg retirement residence for a special ceremony honouring veterans. The 158 signs — one for each fallen soldier — read “we remember” and have been installed along Hwy. 401 between Trenton and Toronto. Hwy. 401 between Glen Miller Road in Trenton and Keele Street in Toronto is recognized as the Highway of Heroes, representing the final journey of Canadian men and women who died in service to their country. The event, held at Palisade Gardens Retirement Residence on Sept. 6, was organized by Master Corporal (retired) Collin Fitzgerald, a veteran of the war in Afghanistan, Kerri Tadeu, a friend of Grafton’s Major Michelle (Knight) Mendes who died in 2009 during the war in Afghanistan, and Lou Rinaldi, MPP for Northumberland-Quinte West. Tadeu, Fitzgerald and Warrant Officer Renay Groves created SerViCe (Sacrifice Soldier, Veteran, Civilian) an organization, which partnered with Ontario to install the signs. SerViCe also adopted the entire 172 kilometre stretch of Highway 401 that comprises the Highway of Heroes and have committed to cleaning the highway. “The Highway of Heroes honours the men and women who have given their lives in service of our country. These signs commemorating the fallen soldiers from Afghanistan will remind everyone who travels this route

of the bravery and sacrifice of Canada’s soldiers,” said Rinaldi, MPP for Northumberland-Quinte West. Tadeu, Fitzgerald and Rinaldi presented each of the veterans at Palisade Gardens

with a pin, certificate, a framed picture of the highway, along with personal cards from students across Canada thanking the veterans for their service. Tadeu’s three boys, Tristan, 8, Nick, 6, and Tyler, 4, also thanked each of

the veterans. The event was meant to bring together young people and veterans so Canadians do not forget the sacrifices veterans have made. “Because of you guys, we have the freedoms we have,” Fitzgerald told the large group gathered at the residence. “ Our purpose is to educate the young so your sacrifices are never forgotten.” Tadeu said she was 30 years old when her friend Major Michelle (Knight) Mendes died and until that time she didn’t recognize the sacrifices of veterans. Since that time she has worked to change that — working with Fitzgerald to honour veterans. “When you know better, you start to do better,” she said. “I can’t say thank you enough for your service of our country.” Tadeu and Fitzgerald have been travelling across Canada bringing together youth and Canadian veterans at retirement homes. They had a goal to honour 150 veterans for Canada’s 150 but Tadeu said they have reached well over 600 veterans. In Cobourg they met veterans who served in the Second World War such as Geoffrey Coleman who served in the army, John Hepburn who served in the navy, and Sonia Thompson who was an air raid warden in London, England. Joining the ceremony on Sept. 6 were Major Michelle (Knight) Mendes’ parents Ron and Dianne Knight who thanked the pair for their efforts. “It is so wonderful what they are doing,” said Dianne. “We consider Kerri our third daughter.”

Lesser charge of 2nd degree murder in Aug. 12 Tweed death BY CHRIS MALETTE

Belleville - Prosecutors have reduced the severity of a murder charge against a Tweed man in connection with the Aug. 12 death of a Kinlin Road man. Making a video appearance from Quinte Detention Centre, Sam Koch, 36, of Tweed, was told Crown attorney Lee Burges has reconsidered the original first-degree murder charge in connection with the Aug. 12 death of Dartt McPherson, 53, whose body was found at his Kinlin Road home.

Napanee - Mike Bossio, Member of Parliament for Hastings—Lennox and Addington, presented twenty awards on Monday night to individuals who have demonstrated extraordinary service to country or community. Every Member of Parliament in the country received twenty special Canada 150 pins made from the copper of the roof of the Parliament of Canada. The pins could be awarded by each Member of Parliament in whatever way she or he decides. Bossio decided to set up a non-partisan, independent panel of five judges to decide on the recipients, based on a public call for nominations. Within the overarching criterion of “service to country or community,” nominees could have individual criteria including but not limited to any one or more of the following: entrepreneurialism, environmental stewardship, heroism, leadership, service, work toward combatting poverty, work toward ending discrimination, work toward gender equality, work toward Indigenous reconciliation, work toward rural community sustainability “I am so proud of all the nominees, and I would like to thank all of them for their service to our community,” said Bossio. “Service comes in many forms, so it is so impor-

tant that tonight we have recognized people from many different walks of life and across our huge riding—all those people who have volunteered, acted heroically, been environmental stewards, tackled poverty, worked for Indigenous reconciliation, pursued rural sustainability, tackled discrimination in all its forms, and much more. Our community is all the richer for what they have done, and for what so many do in our community every day. Thank you!” By the nomination deadline there were 68 nominees gathered from 77 nomination forms across the riding. In alphabetical order by last name, the awardees are: Kevin Alkenbrack (Napanee), Jessica Boomhower (Bath), Cortwright Christian (Napanee, Don Degenova (Tweed), Don Fenwick (Enterprise), Nicole Flynn (Madoc), Dr. Mellissa Holowaty (Marmora), Cathie Jones (Marmora), Amy Mack (Napanee), Chief Donald Maracle (Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory), Tracy McGibbon (L’Amable), Winifred Perryman (Corbyville), Rick Phillips (Plainfield), Janet Scott (Stella), Katherine Sedgwick (Madoc), Joey Shulman (Maynooth), Maria Stebelsky (Napanee), Keith Stephenson (Plainfield), Ada Tinney (Bancroft), Margaret Walsh (Tyendinaga/Napanee).


Health panel recommends amalgamation public boards point and the board should participate in any discussions and look for feedback. "Our responsibility is to read it with serious consideration," he said. He said the proposal, which was released by a panel that was put together by Health Minister Eric Hoskins in January, still asks that municipalities pay 25 per cent of the costs for public health services. That, Gemmill said, may be an issue, if those municipalities have less board representation and less say in how health services are delivered. He also said amalgamation of Public Health boards would take years to implement and with a provincial election coming up next year, there's no way the current administration could get the job accomplished in the time left in its term. Yet, health board officials must be conscious about the current recommendation, in case there's still an appetite for it following the election. "I'm going to reiterate that this is only one proposal put out by an expert panel," Gemmill said. "There are many options out there if one is going to proceed with restructuring of Public Health. "In some areas amalgamation may make sense, but it's definitely not a done

BY STEPHEN PETRICK

Belleville — A provincial panel of health experts have recommended lowering the number of Public Health boards in Ontario from 36 to 14, meaning Hastings Prince Edward Public Health and local municipal officials must be prepared for discussions about amalgamation. Hastings Prince Edward's Acting Medical Officer of Health Ian Gemmill revealed the news at the Sept. 6 public board meeting, prompting an intense discussion. The recommendation — if ever fulfilled — would mean that Public Health institutions would serve much broader regions, similar to how Local Health Integration Networks oversee work in multiple cities. Such amalgamations of big institutions are usually proposed to please wary taxpayers; it's believed these changes reduce the number of publicly-funded administrative positions. But they also cause concerns about reductions in services. Gemmill said, "I would not want to see the public health workforce jeopardized." Yet, he also stressed that the idea is deal. It's up for discussion." nothing more than a "proposal" at this

$50K injection for opioid crisis BY STEPHEN PETRICK

Belleville - Public Health is receiving $150,000 of provincial funding to better address the opioid drug crisis in the region, through “harm-reduction” programs, such as the distribution of naloxone kits. Hastings Prince Edward’s resident medical officer of health Piotr Oglaza spoke about the news at the Wednesday, Sept. 6 board meeting. He said the funding, announced by Health Minister Eric Hoskins, is a game-changer in the way public health distributes the kits, which can save the life of an opioid drug user experiencing an overdose. The funding allows Public Health to distribute kits “community partners” who work directly with clients who should have naloxone kits handy, Oglaza told the board. “It’s placing us, as Public Health, as a leader in the community. Previously, we were doing direct client services. (Now), we can expand our outreach by using the connections that local partners have in the community. That’s a really important element.” Naloxone is an effective antidote for opioid overdoses, and works by temporarily reversing the effects of opioids in the brain and restoring normal breathing in the unconscious person. Anyone with a person who’s experiencing an overdose should call 911, but the kit may be able to save the person’s life, while they wait for paramedics to arrive. Local health officials agree that Hastings Prince Edward, like many regions in Canada, is in the midst of an opioid drug crisis. A recent Ontario Drug Policy Research

Network paper said there were 10,513 opioid drug users in Hastings County in 2015. It also said that opioid-drug use was cited in 45 visits to hospital emergency rooms in 2014. The county also experienced 10 deaths related to opioid drug use in 2013. Hastings Prince Edward Public Health launched its naloxone kits program, called the Lifesaver Program, just over a year ago. In a recent statement, it boasted that, since the program’s launch, 188 Lifesaver kits have been distributed to service users, family members and friends, and 19 kits have been refilled. Over the last year, Public Health has provided over 600 hours of education on overdose prevention to local community partners. A ministry letter that speaks to the $150,000 grant outlines that the money should be used for a number of measures, including conducting a “population health/situational assessment” and supporting “the development, implementation and evaluation of a local overdose response plan.” Oglaza addressed the fact that the funding only speaks to the “harm reduction” aspect of Public Health’s opioid drug strategy. Health officials don’t encourage unprescribed opioid drug use, but recognize that some people choose to take drugs and therefore need safeguards in place. Public Health’s opioid strategy also focuses on prevention, treatment and education programs, he said. The $150,000 has been earmarked for 2017, but Public Health officials say they expect funding for the program to continue in future years.

Two representatives from apartment complexes were honoured by Hastings Prince Edward Public Health for going above and beyond to create a smoke-free environment. Barb Enright-Miller accepted a plaque on behalf of McNabb Towers from Dr. Piotr Oglaza, Maureen Piercy and Dr. Ian Gemmill on Sept. 6. Officials from the downtown buildings created policies that ban smoking around the premise, to provide a healthy atmosphere for residents. These policies go above the requirements of the Smoke Free Ontario Act. Rosalie Spargo (not shown) also accepted a plaque on behalf of Anchorage Condominiums for similar policies.

Funny stuff from an aboriginal perspective Take it Outside Tweed - If you want to have your funny bone tickled by one of Canada’s leading aboriginal playwrights and humourists, plan to be at the Tweed Public Library on Thursday, Sept. 21, at 7:00 p.m. for the next guest in the library’s Writers’ Series. Drew Hayden Taylor, originally from the Curve Lake First Nation, north of Peterborough, has spent the last two decades travelling the world and writing about it from the aboriginal perspective. An award-winning playwright, author, and comedian, he has managed to bridge the gap between cultures with playful humour. The titles of some of his books reflect this unique sense of humour: Take us to Your Chief; Futile Observations of a Blue-Eyed Ojibway; and Funny, You Don’t Look Like One are just a few of his many published books. Drew has worn many hats in his literary career, from performing stand-up comedy at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., to being Artistic Director of Canada’s Native Earth Performing Arts. Over 70 productions of his plays have been

staged. His columns appeared regularly in several Canadian newspapers and magazines, and he has worked on many documentaries exploring the native experience. Most notably, he wrote and directed Redskins, Tricksters and Puppy Stew, a documentary on native humour for the National Film Board of Canada. In his book Motorcycles and Sweetgrass, he brings a modern twist to ancient native folklore. In the play, A World Created by a Drunken God, he “tackles the thorny subjects of culture, morality and history to raise the more basic question of who we really are”, said a reviewer for Surrey No. His website provides much more information about his remarkable accomplishments: http://www.drewhaydentaylor.com/ Copies of the author’s books will be available for purchase and autographing on Sept. 21, and refreshments will be provided by the Friends of the Tweed Library. Funding assistance for this author visit has been provided by the Canada Council for the Arts. Tweed Public Library is at 230 Metcalf St.

“The appetizer course”

The question of the day is how much does landscaping really impact the value of your home? When it comes to the outdoors, spending money on renovations has never been so important or so confusing with sellers getting large dollars for neglected or uninspired homes. To make it simple, think about your property like a three-course meal. The front yard is the appetizer. It sets the stage for the dinner and hopefully leaves your guests anticipating more. The house is definitely the meat and potatoes of your property. It is the substance of the meal. Finally the backyard, which like the dessert course, finishes the space.

Whether you’re having guests over for dinner or trying to impress potential buyers, people naturally start forming an opinion of your home from the moment they see it. That said, you only get one chance to make a first impression. For years we were told that first impressions were made at the front door or at the front hallway. This is definitely not the case. Your front yard is the very first thing people see when they come to your home. Front yards have been getting more attention by realtors and housing experts because of first-impression numbers. Several online sources place the value of curb appeal and a home’s first impression between 5-8% of the home’s worth. Items like shade trees and front walkways contribute to higher returns, as do front porches and sitting areas. While plants and gardens are important to the overall appeal, too many flowers in the front yard intimidate buyers looking for low-maintenance homes. As my general rule, I try to keep the front yard landscaping at 7% of a homeowners renovation budget. That number does not include the driveway even though it may be at the front of your home. You also need to consider the returnon-investment for your outdoor renovation. According to ‘Remodeling Magazine’s 2016 Cost-vs Value Report’ a kitchen renovation has an expected return of 79% if you sell the home within 5 years of the completion of the work. After 5 years, that number steadily drops as styles change. Landscaping, especially in the front yard not only has an immediate ROI according to a 2013 Century21 Canada report, it also increases in value over time as plants, trees and shrubs continue to grow! Many online sources cite landscaping as the only renovation that can double in value every ten years, making it better than even many monetary investment portfolios. Personally, I love to drive through neighbourhoods and look at the landscaping and the houses. Some homeowners put a lot of detail into their front yards with shrubs, flowers, trees and even seating areas. You can tell they care for theirs spaces and its not a big leap to assume the inside of the house looks like the outside. I measure the success of a good front yard by how much I want to see the rest of the property. Other homeowners go with the standard foundation plants, an evergreen and a large lawn. While there’s nothing wrong with this default designs, there’s also nothing inspiring about these yards either. They don’t leave me wanting more. Even in a booming real estate market, making the most of your front yard is the best way to get guests (and potential buyers) smiling before they even walk through the front door. So what is your yard saying? Is it time to make a change? Landscaping the front of your house is not only is a secure investment, it’s the best way to make a fantastic first impression!


Field Naturalists Residents biked up in support of hospitals launch new lecture series Sept. 25 BY JOHN CAMPBELL

Northumberland County – More than 140 people rode their bikes for better care last Saturday in support of hospitals in Campbellford and Cobourg. “We’re on target to raise $40,000,” which the two hospitals will share evenly to put toward the purchase of priority medical equipment, Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) Foundation executive director John Russell said. CMH will use its half of the proceeds from the third annual Bike Up Northumberland to help buy a portable ultrasound machine for the emergency department. “We had more participants than last year ... (and) more sponsors than last year,” Russell said. “It was a terrific day ... I was really pleased with the turnout.” Nine corporate sponsors signed on for the Sept. 9 event, with Home Hardware taking the lead role. “It was a great event for partnerships,” Russell added. Camp-

Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation chair Calvin Newman, third from the right, took part in Bike Up Northumberland in support of the county’s two hospitals. John Campbell/Metroland

bellford Memorial Hospital and Home Hardware stores, and the Northumberland Hills Hospi- Lions clubs in the two communital worked together, as did area ties who looked after the post-ride

barbecue. The combined efforts united all of Northumberland, he said. Riders were given four routes to choose from, measuring five, 10, 25 and 100 kilometres. Calvin Newman, chair of Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation, was among those who took part in the charity ride along Northumberland’s waterfront trail. His group of cyclists chose the longest route, from Cobourg’s Donegan Park to the lighthouse at Presqu’ile Point and back. Northumberland County Warden Mark Walas, the mayor of Brighton, was another rider. “He’s taken part every year,” Russell said. The province provided an Ontario 150 grant for a new program, Get Back on Your Bike, which encouraged people who hadn’t been on a bike in a while to borrow bicycles and helmets that were made available and to go pedalling once again.

Do bobcat and lynx live among us? What toll do roads take on wildlife? Why should you care about vernal pools? These are a few of the interesting questions that will be explored in the Quinte Field Naturalist’s 2017 – 2018 Lecture Series beginning Monday, Sept. 25 with “Around the Orient in 80 Birds.” The leader for this photographic journey will be expert birder, Tom Wheatley who has spent winters in Southeast Asia for years. He will highlight the region’s birds, their conservation status and explain how our actions here, affect bird populations on the other side of the world. Another program in the series will introduce a few of the hundreds of moth species that can be discovered right in your backyard. Some as colourful as butterflies; as fascinating as birds. In January, renowned local naturalist Terry Sprague, will tell of the disappearance and return of the Bald Eagle as a nesting species in Price Edward County. In April, the series will wrap up with a presentation by Peri McQuay, passionate environmentalist and author of The View From Foley Mountain, about the 30 years her and her husband lived and worked at this Conservation Area; A Wing in the Door: Adventures With a Red-tailed Hawk: and most recently of Singing Meadow: The Adventure of Creating a Country Home. The Quinte Field Naturalists is an affiliate of Ontario Nature and works locally for education and conservation of our wild species and wild spaces. Programs are held the fourth Monday of each month from September through April, except December, at 7 p.m. at Sills Auditorium, Bridge Street United Church in Belleville. Programs are free and open to all. Refreshments are served. For more information, please contact Denice Wilkins at 613/478-5070 or visit www.facebook.com/QuinteFieldNaturalists.

Straw bale houses so inviting you want 'to hug the walls' BY JOHN CAMPBELL

$9995.00 No Hidden Fees !

Trent Hills – Natural homes – energy efficient houses built with minimally processed renewable materials that are locally sourced – will be open to the public across the province Sept. 24. One of the sites on the self-guided tour organized by the Ontario Natural Building Coalition is a 1,600-sq. ft straw bale home being built at 163 Gummow Rd. near Warkworth. “We're building it as a rental property,� said one of its owners, Kevin Shortt. He and his partner Jack Bond currently live in a 3,000 sq.-ft straw bale house they built in Dartford with another couple. “It's proven to be just fantastic,� he said. “We love the esthetics of it, (as well as) the energy efficiency and the green quality of the renewable resource ... We really enjoy our house.� Shortt, a massage therapist in Toronto, and Bond, a former CBC writer and producer who now works as a contractor, decided to build a second straw bale house because “it seemed a shame� to let the skills they learned building the first one go to waste, Shortt said. “We're not moving in so we can take our time,� he said. “A year (from) now we'll be ready to rent.� Straw bale home construction “is a pretty minor industry,� Bond said, but “it's a really good direction to be going in,� because the main building material “is a renewable resource within one season.�

The small bales are 14 inches wide; when layers of plaster are added the walls are 16 inches thick. “It gives you a really high R-value (insulation level)� — up to R-50 — “almost triple� what is used in a conventional house, Shortt said, so “the cost of heating it will be much lower.� And contrary to what many might think, straw houses are “very fire retardant, much more than a conventional house.� Shortt said the walls have “a very organic feel� because “they're not perfectly straight, they have a movement to them.� “What I love about it is the quality of sound (and) air,� Bond said. “You just feel like you're wrapped in the house. It's really lovely.� Visitors to their house in Dartford “always want to hug the walls, it's just really appealing.� “You're just drawn to touch the walls,� Shortt said. Building a straw bale house is “probably about the same� as a conventional house, he said. Straw and plaster are less expensive building materials but “the labour is more.� The two men are building their rental house with the help of many friends. The building technique “is pretty forgiving but you want to know what you're doing,� Short said. They learned how mostly from reading books on the subject. Bond “has been the real leader on this� and does all the plumbing and electrical work. To learn more about the tour and to purchase a $10 passport, visit www.naturalbuildingcoalition.ca.

Feast From Farm celebrates local cuisine BY MELYSSA GLOUDE

Tweed – Delicious scents from gourmet dishes filled the air at Tweed’s waterfront park over the weekend. The municipality’s signature foodie event attracted visitors to partake in ‘food-less-travelled,’ as it was billed. For the fourth year, Tweed’s Feast From Farm was yet another sweet success. Rachelle Hardesty, Manager of Community Development and Parks and Recreation for the municipality said the inception of the event came from a different type of ‘agri-tourism’. “It originally started when the municipality wasn’t so much looking at our farmers when it came to tourism,” says Hardesty. “So that’s what started this foodie type event. Since then we’ve had tons of foodie events in the community. This is pairing our local farms up with food producers and preparing a dish that some can cook at home.” The event featured local chefs, paired

“This is pairing our local farms up with food producers and preparing a dish that some can cook at home.” RACHELLE HARDESTY, TWEED RECREATION MANAGER

up with farmers for their fresh ingredients du jour, says Hardesty. “We have seven farmers and seven chefs, as well as music and vendors. It’s your traditional farmers market type foodie event. “ This year’s featured chefs came from an array of culinary specialities: Nice Ice Baby Ice Cream, Wild Hawg Catering, Western Cut Southern Style BBQ, Palmateer’s Meats, Primitive Catering, Pasta Tavola, and DCW Smokers. Their supporting farms were Langevin Sheep, Enright Cattle, Gunnings, Wilsons Organic, Slack Family Farms, Farrell Farms and Broekland Farms. Hardesty noted the attendance was

great - a great day of sunny weather no doubt adding to the number of hungry guests. “You pay for taste testing tickets seven tastings for $30 or $5 each. You don’t have to pay to come in and wander around either,” says Hardesty. “We were anticipating 500 people. And we have a beautiful day for this, and a perfect waterfront backdrop for the event as well.” There was also a special Basket Challenge during the event -- a Chopped Canada-inspired mini competition for local chefs to show off their skills. “We have four residents with souschefs and we have 12 secret ingredients and they have to use two of them as mandatory and then they have to use up to five. It’s all local product.” The competition was open to any Tweed resident over the age of 16 who submitted an essay or a video for precompetition selection -- and the winner received a plaque, a $100 gift certificate to Enright Cattle Company and of course, bragging rights. Hardesty says that the popular event is one of the biggest culinary tourism events that Tweed offers – and every year it’s a huge success. “It gives an opportunity for the community to showcase their own food and Paula Watts, chef and co-owner of Belleville’s Pasta Tavola, dishes let people know what’s in their own out fried ravioli on artisanal coleslaw with fresh heirloom tomabackyards,” says Hardesty. toes. Melyssa Gloude/Metroland “And I don’t think anyone has left hungry.”

Man located in Peterborough area

B30 Section B - Thursday, September 14, 2017

In a country as affluent as Canada, hunger is unacceptable. Yet, more than 850,000 Canadians will visit a food bank for assistance this month alone. Of those, 36 per cent are children or youth. We are working to change the statistics on hunger with Hunger Awareness Week. Here in Quinte West, the need is represented by those turning to us for support, with more than 285 households on average in our community coming to Care and Share Food Bank for assistance in 2017. But we do our part to change this. During Hunger Awareness Week, September 18-22, we are drawing the line on

hunger and we encourage Canadians to engage. We hope that people will participate by getting ready to contribute to our Annual Fall Food Drive on September 30. We can work to make a difference for individuals in Quinte West who turn to our food bank for support each month. By learning about hunger, we can all change the way we think about hunger and activate the changes needed to reduce it. We encourage everyone to take part. Visit hungerawarenessweek.ca for more information. Sincerely, Care and Share Food Bank Quinte West
