Roadwork delayed until 2015

By Ray Yurkowski

News - Brighton - At their regular meeting last week, municipal council approved delaying two road reconstruction projects until next year. Work under the 2014 road work program has been carried out by the combined forces of the municipality, Northumberland County and Behan Construction. Originally scheduled for late September, work at Scriver Road and Bay Street in Gosport was delayed until early October when public works director Andrew Drzewiecki was advised by county ofﬁcials of their earliest opportunity.

Mayoral candidates square off By Ray Yurkowski

News - Brighton - Almost 200 people attended a head-to-head mayoral candidates’ forum on October 8 at East Northumberland Secondary School. A smaller turnout than any of the previous preelection events was attributed to the mail-in voting system used in Brighton. Ballots were mailed out the week of September 29. But, explained municipal CAO Gayle Frost, there was a problem getting those ballots into the hands of every voter on the list. Canada Post refused to deliver to those addresses with just a rural route designation. “They need a street address,” Frost explained to the crowd. Those ballots were returned and municipal staff combed the tax rolls, found the street addresses, corrected the envelopes, and re-mailed them out. “If you don’t get a ballot by October 15, we would ask you to drop in [to the municipal ofﬁce at 35 Alice Street] and we’ll make sure you get one,” she said. The evening itself started out with a ﬁve-minute opportunity for Mike Vandertoorn and Mark Walas to present an opening address. Then, it was up to the voters to ask questions of the candidates. Topics ranged from municipal budgets to the wastewater treatment plant, the Mac’s Convenience Stores proposal to build a gas station in downtown Brighton, heritage conservation, municipal wages, police costs, roads, quality of life for seniors in Brighton, the new addition to the industrial park and alleviating residential tax rates. A question from one resident wondered about the disparity of successful federal and provincial government funding applications between Brighton and its neighbouring communities. “Over the last four years, Brighton has managed to get $6.7 million from both of these sources,” he said. “However, Cramahe Township has got $9.6 million, Quinte West has got $37 million and Prince Edward County has got $94 million. Why is

there such a gap?” “It comes back to a municipal services review,” said Walas. “I think we need to look at that area and understand why, if we don’t have the right people doing that job, continually searching out funds we can utilize for our projects, we need to look at that and address it.” “Yes, it’s always been believed that Brighton has been shortchanged when it comes to provincial or federal grant applications and it’s certainly not for the lack of trying,” said Vandertoorn. “But one thing we have to remember, our financial indicators are showing time and time again that Brighton is a low-risk municipality. Our finances are top notch according to the province and the envy of a lot of communities. One has to wonder, when these other levels of government are handing out money that they don’t look and say, ‘Brighton can do it on their own.’” Another resident wondered about the council Code of Conduct. “Do you believe the new council can find a less divisive and less expensive way of solving internal disputes?” he asked. “Open, respectful communication with council and staff is essential to building a community and working together,” said Vandertoorn. “You can differ in opinions and ideas, but, eventually, you need to come to a consensus, which is a decision of council and that is the will of council. I will respect the will of council.” “I’m a firm believer, over this past term, that both the Code of Conduct and the Procedural Bylaw have been used as nothing more than a weapon,” said Walas. “It’s been very unfortunate and I think a complete review of both documents and the necessity to have them is certainly in order. It’s been a real point of frustration over this past term.” “Which is most important, infrastructure issues or the provision of a new library?” from a local resident drew a groan from the audience.

“I think a library should be considered critical infrastructure,” said Walas. “A library is deﬁnitely critical infrastructure but by expanding our industrial tax base, we will create the revenue we need to get projects like the library and many more completed,” said Vandertoorn. Walas provided a puzzling answer when asked if he intended to pay back the more than $5,500 he spent on municipal lawyers in 2011 in an effort to

ﬁre CAO Frost. After an integrity commissioner’s report in March 2014, Walas was “encouraged” to reimburse the residents of Brighton for the legal costs as well as provide an appropriate apology to staff, council and the residents. To date, neither has occurred. “I will always stress the fact that that money was utilized for education and training,” he said.

News - Colborne - If willingness to donate a kidney were a test of true friendship, Melissa Barrett would pass with ﬂying colours. Next week Barrett will undergo surgery to have her left kidney removed to help her best friend, Kristina Lowery, who has polycystic kidney disease and requires dialysis four days a week. Barrett’s kidney, in fact, will go to someone she doesn’t know and the kidney Lowery receives will be from a donor who’s anonymous as well. It’s all being done through the Paired Exchange Living

Donor program which brings together one pair of living donor and kidney recipient, whose blood types don’t match, with another pair whose blood types are a match to theirs. Continued on page 4

The task of turning around downtown Donating a kidney is true friendship

By Ray Yurkowski

News - Brighton - Last week, the Downtown Revitalization Advisory Committee held their inaugural meeting in the hope of charting a plan to make downtown Brighton better. The community driven project is based on the downtown revitalization program developed by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs. According to the Ministry web

site, “there is more to the picture than the appearance of the downtown.” As well as community buildings and structures, a successful project focuses on the demography of the area, overall attractiveness to investors, and the impression a community gives visitors. “It’s a four-stage process,” revitalization co-ordinator Laurie Caouette explained to those attending the evening event. They

include organizing and scoping; collecting and assessing; planning and prioritizing; and implementing and monitoring. Part of the job will be collecting facts and ﬁgures. Business owners, residents and shoppers will be surveyed to assess the current situation. “It’s understanding what you have down there and who comes to Brighton to shop,” said Ministry advisor Karen Fischer, who attended the meeting. “It’s an ongoing process,” she added. “It’s a fairly involved process but easy to follow through stage by stage. “When a community takes on a project like this, it’s inclusive, it shows pride, it shows commitment, and it shows dedication to a cause.” Fourteen people sat around the table, including municipal Economic Development Manager Elisha Purchase, planning manager Ken Hurford, Councillor Craig Kerr along with delegates from the Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown Business Improvement Association. As well, at least seven downtown businesses were represented. “We really want what we’re

doing with downtown revitalization to compliment with the launch of the branding project,” said Purchase. Branding Brighton is a focus on a big idea to attract the creative trades sector to set up shop in town. A public launch for that project is scheduled on October 30. A visioning exercise, a “postcard from the future,” was led by Fischer. She asked everyone to imagine they had moved away from Brighton for about ten years and what changes struck them most upon their return. All agreed, Brighton’s downtown should appeal to everyone and become a social hub and heart of the community. “You have given us direction as to what is important and some clear areas to talk about,” she said afterward. The committee will meet again on October 20 and take part in a walk about of the downtown area on November 4. The public will have their chance to have a look at a project launch event, tentatively scheduled for November 12. “I’m really happy with the team and with how it went,” said Caouette, after the meeting. “I thought there were a lot of good ideas.”

The two kidney donors simply switch recipients. Lowery said “it’s an amazing gift” her friend is giving, “the gift of life.” There are “no words to express how thankful I am.” She’s “my hero, my angel because she’s giving me a second chance at life.” Barrett, 27, downplayed the sacrifice of a healthy kidney she is making for a friend she first met when they both attended East Northumberland Secondary School. “It wasn’t a difficult decision for me at all,” she said. “It’s actually one of the easiest things I’ve ever done in my life.” Lowery, 28, was diagnosed five years ago with polycystic kidney disease, a genetic disorder that causes multiple cysts to develop in the kidneys. She began dialysis two years ago after her kidney function had dropped to just 12 per cent in a year. “I call it life support,” Lowery said. Barrett, who said she’s in “perfect health,” began undergoing a battery of tests in January that included CT scans, X-rays, urine and blood samples, to ensure she wouldn’t be passing on a virus, such as measles, to a frail recipient. The Colborne resident admitted to being “a little bit nervous” as the day for the transplant approaches, October 22 at St. Joseph’s Healthcare in Hamilton. Lowery’s operation will take place the same day at Toronto General Hospital. The two women were told in June to expect to be on the waiting list for three to seven years but to their considerable surprise a match with another pair was found within a month. “I was very happy and tearful,” said Lowery, whose kidney co-ordinator “said it was very shocking” that a match had been made so quickly. “It was like a miracle,” Barrett said. The mother of two who works as an outcomes support facilitator in Campbellford for Community Living Campbellford/Brighton said she will be off work for anywhere from four to eight weeks. “It really all depends on how I recover and if there are any complications,” she said. Life with one kidney “won’t affect me in any way” because over time it will “grow to compensate for the loss of the left kidney.” Lowery and her family has organized a benefit dance for this Saturday at the Colborne Legion to raise money to help offset Barrett’s expenses while she’s not working. There will be food, door prizes and raffles as well as music by BCR, a band whose members include Lowery’s uncle. Admission is $10 or two for $15. The fund raiser begins at 7 p.m. Lowery said she’s looking forward to not having to depend on dialysis, being able to travel outside Cobourg where she lives, returning to work, and no longer having to follow a special diet. Donating organs can save lives, she said, and what her friend is doing is a shining example of the good that can be done. “We need more people like her in this world.”

Helping food bank a weighty matter for students By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - Students at Kent Public School weighed in on the issue of hunger in this country last Friday. They did it by handing in bags and boxes of food they had collected during the week for the 11th annual FCC Drive Away Hunger tour held across Canada. Staff from the Farm Credit Corporation’s Frankford office weighed the food and then delivered the donations to the Campbellford, Warkworth and District Fare Share Food Bank.

A total of 617 pounds of food was collected, with Mark Carlen’s Grade 8 and Sarah Budgell’s Grade 6/7 classes tying for the largest amount donated, 83 pounds, earning themselves a pizza party as a prize. Jennifer Dryburgh, a relationship management associate with FCC, thanked the school for its support of the program, which goes back five years. “You guys do a fantastic job year after year, so thank you very much.” Dryburgh said before the assembly that Kent is “such a

community-minded school” that it “jumped on board” when given the opportunity to get involved in Drive Away Hunger. “It’s quite an effort that Farm Credit does every year” to help feed the hungry, she said. It’s the largest employeedriven food drive in Canada and the corporation’s goal this year is to collect three million pounds of food. “FCC Drive Away Hunger is one of the ways we give back to the rural communities where our customers and employees live and work,” FCC president

News - Brighton - The operator of an ATV narrowly missed being struck by a train Wednesday morning as he was trying to remove the stuck vehicle from the tracks. A westbound CN train collided with the all-terrain vehicle near Boes Road just after 4:20 a.m. October, 8 forcing the closure of Prince Edward Street crossing for about two hours. “Trains do not have the same capacity for stopping as cars, trucks or even transport trailers,” Northumberland OPP Detachment Commander - Acting Inspector Rob Kobayashi said in a statement. “The bigger the vehicle, the longer a distance it takes to stop. Fortunately the train’s engineer was observant enough to slow the train from its initial speed and thankfully no one was killed.” Police said the man, who was located some distance away in the ditch, suffered minor injuries and was taken to hospital by Northumberland Paramedics. Nicholas McGrath, 22, Brighton, was charged with impaired care and control of a motor vehicle, refusal to supply a breath sample, and trespassing. The OPP reminded the public that railroad tracks are private property owned by rail companies. People found trespassing or committing other offences will be charged.

and CEO Greg Stewart said earlier this year. He noted hunger touches nearly 850,000 Canadians each month, many of them children. Beginning in May and continuing until the end of this week, Farm Credit has also been collecting food and cash donations at its field offices across Canada.

Annual Be My Guest Thanksgiving charity dinner raises money for breakfast program and wanted the proceeds to go to a program at the high school so we decided it would go to our breakfast program,” said Julie Brahaney, a teacher at CDHS who along with some other staff and students volunteered to serve and help out on Thanksgiving Monday.

“Always wanted to do something for kids so it worked out perfectly,” he said, while doing last-minute preparations in the kitchen.

News - Campbellford - The true meaning of Thanksgiving hit home on Monday for many as the owners of Be My Guest Restaurant held its seventh annual charity dinner. Each year they donate the proceeds of the event to a different cause and this year it will be going to the breakfast program at Campbellford District High School. “Andrew [Papaioannou] approached us

tant the students have something nutritious to eat. Andrew approached us and that was fantastic,” she added. Jakob, who is in Grade 10, talked about why he was helping: “I think this is important because everybody deserves a chance to have a Thanksgiving dinner and not everybody has the opportunity.” Grade 11 student Denise Bennett who was there to help said, “I thought it would be a good idea to help out and get used to things … like in a restaurant, serving and washing tables down and this is for a good cause.” Travis Brown, Grade 9, was there “because my mom is helping out and I think it’s a good idea.” The CDHS breakfast program is available to all the students and is looked after by the Life Skills students. Terra Airheart, a life skills teacher for three years and now the head of the special education department, was among the staff helping at the Thanksgiving charity dinner. She talked about the school’s breakfast program. “It gives our Life Skills kids opportunities to learn some skills they can use in everyday life and a feeling they have importance because we are able to provide breakfast for the whole school,” she said. “Pat Davis [teacher] has taken over the breakfast part. It takes place Tuesdays Thursdays and Fridays,” she added. Principal Doug Birch and his kids as well as teacher Andrea Vanden Tillaart were also at the restaurant to help. The Papaioannou family does not charge for the Thanksgiving dinner but donations are accepted. The restaurant has served about 500 meals at this charity dinner in the past and 600 pounds of turkey has been consumed. As of press time there was no word on how much money was raised.

OPINION

Bolivia and Brazil

Editorial - To nobody’s great surprise, Bolivia’s President Evo Morales has won a third five-year term by a landslide majority. It’s no surprise because Bolivia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has tripled since he took office in 2006. The number of people living in poverty has fallen by a quarter, even the poorest now have the right to a pension, and illiteracy has fallen to zero. Of course he won. What has happened in Bolivia seems as miraculous as what happened in Brazil, where another left-wing president, Luiz Inacio “Lula” da Silva, took office in 2003. The economy started growing at five per cent a year, unemployment fell steeply, and some 40 million Brazilians, almost a quarter of the population, were lifted out of poverty. Lula’s former chief of staff and successor as president, Dilma Rousseff, is also likely to win another term in office. Is there some secret they share? Many other South American economies have been growing fast too, but without the dramatic change in the distribution of income that has happened in Brazil and Bolivia. Even the late Hugo Chavez’s “Bolivarian revolution” in Venezuela, for all its anti-imperialist rhetoric and despite the country’s great oil wealth, has not delivered a comparable transformation in the lives of the poor. Evo Morales has another claim to fame, too. He comes from the poorest of the poor: “Until I was 14, I had no idea there was such a thing as underwear. I slept in my clothes … (which) my mother only removed for two reasons: to look for lice or to patch an elbow or a knee,” he wrote in his recent autobiography. He spent only a short time in school, and he did not become fluent in Spanish until he was a young adult. Morales grew up speaking Aymara, one of the languages spoken by Bolivia’s indigenous peoples. They are a two-thirds majority of the country’s population, but in almost 200 years of independence Morales is the first indigenous Bolivian to become president (all previous presidents were drawn from the 15 per cent white minority). And his government passed a new constitution in 2009 that entrenches indigenous rights in politics and in law. So should we hail the arrival of a new and better model for economic growth and social justice? Unfortunately, no. The only economic

secret that Lula, Dilma and Evo all share is that if you want the economy to grow, you must not frighten the horses. The international markets got ready for a meltdown when Lula, a self-taught former trade union leader with a penchant for radical rhetoric, became president of Brazil, but he turned out to be the very soul of fiscal responsibility. And although Morales nationalised a large part of the Bolivian economy—oil, gas, tin and zinc mining and key utilities—he negotiated deals that compensated foreign investors and kept the markets happy. All the rest of it—things like Morales calling Barack Obama “an imperialist” at the UN General Assembly meeting in New York last month, and Rousseff cancelling a scheduled state visit to the United States last year after Edward Snowden revealed that the U.S. National Security Agency had been spying on her emails—simply doesn’t worry serious investors so long as the numbers come out right and the financial and fiscal environment is predictable. So Morales has not been punished by the markets for being a “socialist,” and neither has Rousseff. Both still have strong support at home, too. Unlike Morales, Rousseff didn’t get enough votes in the first round of the presidential election earlier this month to avoid a run-off on October 26, but she will probably win again even though the Brazilian economy is now teetering on the brink of a recession. Despite all the similarities, however, comparing Brazil and Bolivia is rather like comparing apples and oranges here. Brazil has a very large and diversified internal market (fourth largest carmaker in the world, for example), and has 20 times as many people as Bolivia. The latter has an economy that is almost totally dependent on the export of commodities, mainly oil, gas and minerals. Bolivia’s soaring GDP of the past decade, and the modest prosperity it has brought to what was South America’s poorest country, is mostly fairy gold. What goes up usually comes down again eventually, and what drove Bolivia’s GDP up was almost entirely rising commodity prices. When they come down again, so will the GDP, the government’s income, and its ability to support even the sketchiest outline of a welfare state. In the meantime, Morales has spent the extra money wisely, and it will be very hard for any successor to abandon this kind of “social spending.” He has also made it normal for Bolivia’s indigenous majority to have a big say in policy decisions at the national level, and that too will be almost impossible to roll back. He has even built up big financial reserves to cope with falling commodity prices. But he has not really transformed the economy.

The birth of a child brings joy and new hope By John Campbell Editorial - If the world held true to form, its population grew by more than 200,000 people September 8, as it does most every day. But this day was a special one for the Campbell clan: Stella Mae Vera arrived, to begin life as Jesse’s little sister. It’s a role, among others, she will grow into while carving out one that’s distinctly her own. Right now, life is pretty simple for Stella: Eat. Sleep. Repeat. Which she’s good at—as well as soiling her diapers and squalling. Jesse blazed a trail his baby sister seems wail-bent on following. To be honest, there haven’t been many heart-to-hearts between grandfather and granddaughter thus far, and any that have taken place have been one-sided and in a language that would be embarrassing if spoken in the company of adults. Stella, I’m sure, will keep up her end of the conversation in time, and even come to monopolize it, as little girls who turn into teenagers and then become wives often do. (Stella, there’s one thing you should know about grandfathers. They do like to tease. Oh, yes, and don’t ever pull a finger when they point one at you. Wait a minute. Never mind, that’s something only grandsons have to worry about with their grandfathers. Other grandsons. I would never stoop so low as that to get a cheap laugh. I much prefer sticking out the tongue and blowing, to mimic the funny lower body noise that never fails to crack people up. Especially at council meetings and funerals. When done in good taste.) I know Stella’s way too young to read this—I’m about a year too early, I reckon— but I thought I’d put my thoughts down in writing while I still have thoughts and mind enough to record them. (And in going back over what I’ve written so far, readers, I’m with you in wondering why bother). Anyway, my advice to Stella, in preparing for a long life ahead, is that she eat well, keep active, and get plenty of sleep. It’s advice I have followed only fitfully over the years but she need only look at my person and know my story to accept the truth of what I say. “Gramps, you’re a wreck; I never want to be like you!”

Kids say the darndest things, never realizing until too late it could get them written out of the will. I do have a will around someplace— willpower’s another story—which I will have to update, with the family tree having grown a new limb. Can’t remember its contents but one thing worth considering is to append an apology for a generation, for the Baby Boomers such as myself. (But we were enabled and so are not alone in our guilt.) We’re to blame, members of my generation, for the state of the world today and as much as it has changed for the better in the last 50 years, there remains, to our shame, much too much cause for grief in the millions of lives lost to racial hatred, territorial disputes, religious zealotry, political calculation and wanton neglect. To this number are added the lives that have been spared but woefully diminished by the very same forces that show no sign of abating. Can it be said we have given our best effort to ridding the world of their presence? And what shape will planet Earth be physically before the end of the century? The various environmental realities being posited are too dreadful to contemplate. Which is why Stella’s arrival, an occasion of great joy—as was her brother’s birth, and that of their mother and uncle—is accompanied by a great deal of hope, that she and her generation will be successful where we were not. That countries will find peace, Earth will be protected, and people everywhere will have the opportunity to realize their full potential. It’s a tall order that proved more than we Baby Boomers could handle. And it will take more than one generation to achieve. But all that seems possible when gazing into an elfin face unmarked by want, fear, hate and prejudice, and whose heart is pure and innocent. Welcome to life, Stella. Every second is precious. Just like you. So treat each one with care. (Oh, and one more thing. When your grandfather grabs your nose, he really doesn’t have it between his fingers. He put it behind your ear where he keeps his quarters.)

park’s creation, along with fellow committee member Lois Donovan. “I’m just so excited, I can’t believe we’re finally … opening a park,” Donovan said before the opening. The two started the ball rolling for a dog park in 2007 and were well on their way to securing use of a parcel of land on the west side of Proctor Park from Lower Trent Conservation, McClintock told the gathering. But when several of the park’s neighbours raised concerns about “excessive noise and an overflow of cars,” the conservation authority “backed away … so the deal fell through,” he said. “Needless to say Lois and I were deflated and we decided to pull back and

News - Brighton - Brighton’s newest park ofﬁcially opened its gates last week—and its users were so excited they wagged their tails and chased each other. Just as enthusiastic but showing a tad more restraint were their owners and spectators attending the ceremonial opening of the Pepper and Hunter Dog Park on County Road 64 October 9. “This was a long time coming but it is so gratifying to see the number of dogs here today, and the support that we have had is just overwhelming,” said Ken McClintock, a member of the Brighton Off Leash Dog Recreation Area (BOLDRA) committee who played a key role in the

regroup.” Two years later they were approached by Councillors Tom Rittwage and Mike Vandertoorn with a proposal from local businessman Doug Leblanc, who offered to donate 6.5 acres for a dog park near his company, DL Services. His only condition: the park be named after his two dogs. Council lent its support by loaning BOLDRA $20,000 to pay for about two acres of the land to be fenced off and a parking lot built. The group will pay off the loan by fund raising and assisting in the sale of dog licences, for which it will receive 40 per cent of the fees. “So this park basically belongs to BOLDRA and [its] members will be responsible for looking after the park,” McClintock said. Leblanc said he and his wife Becky “were pleased to donate the land” because they’re both dog lovers and “Brighton’s been a good town to us.” He thanked council members and municipal staff for their support, saying anything he and his wife can do for the town “and help out dogs who don’t have a place to run, it makes us very happy.” Mayor Mark Walas thanked the Leblancs, BOLDRA and the two councillors for their initiative, and staff for helping it along. It’s “certainly a very exciting day for the municipality,” he said. Donovan said BOLDRA volunteers will begin updating the municipality’s list Doug and Becky Leblanc, shown with their son David, donated the land that made creation of a dog of dog owners by going door-to-door this park possible on County 64.

Living - Brighton - October is Community Support Services Month and the VON serving Hastings, Northumberland and Prince Edward counties would like to extend an invitation to residents of Brighton to attend an open house at our Adult Day Program on Friday, October 17, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Caregivers and their loved ones will have the opportunity to visit the site to learn about the services and receive a half-day of respite at no charge. The program is located in unit 9 at 46 Prince Edward Street, Brighton. Staff will be on-site to respond to inquiries and to engage individuals, living with cognitive or physical health conditions, in social and recreational activities. Our Brighton Adult Day Services currently operates Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays with vacancy for new participants. Additional days of service may be available in the future pending community interest. The Adult Day Program provides supervised programming in a group setting. The service assists clients to

achieve and maintain their maximum level of functioning to prevent premature or inappropriate placement in long-term-care facilities. “The program provides social stimulation in a safe environment where clients can interact with their peers, and caregivers receive a period of respite,” says Sheri Williams-Miller, Community Support Services Manager at VON. Funding is provided in part by the South East Local Health Integration Network, community donations and a small daily client fee. However, subsidies are available if required. The regular fee for services is $14 per day which includes refreshments, a nourishing meal and program supplies. We are asking for your assistance to extend this invitation to the community so caregivers and family members can attend and learn about respite services available through Brighton Adult Day Program. For registration and information, please contact Shannon Demille at 613-392-4181 extension 5305.

It was located September 26 in a maple bush west of Hurley Road north of Highway 401. On October 2, a canteen trailer valued at $8,000 was reported stolen from the Roseneath Fairgrounds. The trailer has distinctive red-and-white lettering on the side advertising the sale of candy apples and snow cones, the vehicle’s primary use. The theft is believed to have taken place between September 29 and October 2. A 1990 flatbed trailer containing construction material and two-by-six lumber was reported stolen October 2. It had been parked at a construction site on Purdy Road in AlnwickHaldimand Township. Its value was estimated at $8,000. Northumberland OPP were notified October 7 that a UHaul four-by-eight enclosed utility trailer with a Texas licence plate was stolen sometime between mid-August and early October. U-Haul staff thought it had been taken to an alternative location but when it didn’t turn up, they contacted police. Northumberland OPP Scenes of Crime officers and Street Response Team members are conducting the investigations. Anyone with information related to these thefts is asked to call the OPP at 1-888-310-1122, or the detachments at Brighton, 1-613-475-1313, or Cobourg, 1-905-372-5421. To remain anonymous, call Peterborough/Northumberland Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS), where you might be eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000 and not have to appear in court.

LTC presents draft plan News - Quinte West - The draft business plan and budget for 2015 has been submitted to the board and awaits approval from participating municipalities. CAO Glenda Rodgers said the plan includes watershed science and services, conservation lands, corporate services and administering and managing the Bay of Quinte Remedial Action Plan and the regional Trent Conservation Coalition Source Protection Program. “The plan sets out the priority areas of work over the next year that will implement the authority’s conservation strategy and contribute to the health of the watershed and its residents,” Rodgers said. Some of the work to be completed over the next year includes improvements at conservation areas including bridge improvements at Bleasdell Boulder, trail surface improvements at Proctor Park, and improvements to the Goodrich-Loomis Beaver Trail. “We will also investigate options for Trenton Greenbelt Conservation Area enhancement,” she said. The budget proposes a general levy increase of $24,700, from $774,271 to $798,971. The levy is based on current value assessment in each municipality relative to the total current value assessment for the watershed. These are

provided by the province. The proposed increase in general levy for the watershed is 3.19 per cent. This represents a taxpayer cost of $9.59 per $100,000 of current value assessment. In 2014 the taxpayer cost was $9.41 (an increase of .18). The increases from 2014 to 2015 can be attributed to $9,500 increases in taxes, $1,000 increase in insurance, $9,000 for enforcement, and cost of living expenses and merit increases for some staff. Lower Trent Region Conservation Authority (Lower Trent Conservation) was formed in 1968 and has an area of 2,121 square kilometres (819 square miles) and includes all or portions of seven municipalities. The Township of Alnwick/Haldimand’s levy will go up from $77,582 to $79,338, the Municipality of Brighton levy will go up from $123,961 to $128,874, the Municipality of Trent Hills will go up from $124,735 to $127,676, the Municipality of Centre Hastings levy will go up from $17,963 to $18,536, the Township of Cramahe will go up from $62,716 to $64,637, the City of Quinte West levy will go up from $337,737 to $349,869, the Township of Stirling-Rawdon will go up from $29,577 to $30,041.

News - Belleville - A patient who arrived at Belleville General Hospital on Thanksgiving Monday was tested for Ebola as a precautionary measure. Quinte Health Care issued a press release on Monday, saying the patient had recently returned from West Africa and had some symptoms common with the Ebola virus. However, officials believed at the time that it was unlikely the patient would test positive for Ebola. Even a slight chance of the Ebola becoming present in the region is concerning though. The highly contagious and deadly disease has caused a crisis in West Africa and fears of it going worldwide were intensified last week when a man in Dallas, Texas, was identified of having the virus and eventually died of it. Still, officials with Quinte Health Care, the umbrella organization that overseas the Belleville hospital, said the chances of the patient’s symptoms actually being from Ebola were low. “Given his symptoms and that he was not exposed to any ill people during a very short stopover in West Africa, it is extremely unlikely that he would test positive for Ebola,” said Dr. Dick Zoutman, QHC Chief of Staff and a nationally recognized inflection control expert. “We expect he has any number of diseases common when people travel. “However, since we cannot immediately rule out Ebola, we are taking the conservative approach and sending a sample out for testing at the National Microbiology lab in Winnipeg.” QHC was expecting to get the test results back on Tuesday or Wednesday (after press time). Officials said the patient would remain at Belleville General Hospital in isolation in the meantime. Dr. Zoutman added that this incident has proven to be a test of hospital infection control precautions and shows that the system is working. “Our staff and physicians have handled this case exactly as they have been trained to do. It was about four minutes from the time the patient arrived at our hospital until he was placed in the proper isolation room. From an infection control perspective, the risk to anyone else was virtually non-existent.”

Business - Trenton - Vivacious ﬁrst opened in downtown Trenton two and a half years ago. Originally it was owned by Hope Stone and was in a much smaller location with women’s clothing catering to plus sizes only. Since then the store has doubled in size and has the largest assortment of plus size clothing for women ranging from size 14 to 24 in the Quinte area. “I have extensive experience in retail sales and marketing and love this location. I look forward to welcoming new customers to the store,” says Angela Wildish, the new owner of Vivacious. Angela has recently moved back to Trenton with her husband and two daughters after spending many years in Toronto. Along with a full range of plus size clothing Vivacious now carries regular sizes from 6 to 16. The apparel at the store caters from casual to career and includes lots of dressy items for those special occasions. There is a large selection of dresses for casual, events and weddings. New shipments arrive weekly so there is always something new to see in the store, check out their Facebook page or <www.iamvivacious.com>, as they show all the new styles and looks carried each season. “When the store expanded regular sized clothing was also introduced and it has been very popular. I look forward to listening to my customers

Homeowners are increasingly extending their living spaces outside the walls of their homes. Expansive and intricate stonework patios and decked-out outdoor kitchens are the kind of additions many homeowners dream of. Those with unlimited budgets can enjoy just about any look they desire, but many homeowners may not have the money to go all the way with their outdoor living spaces. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to create budget-friendly spaces that are functional, fun and eye catching. Decks and patios are popular gathering spots outside a home, and homeowners have numerous inexpensive options at their disposal when choosing patio materials. And those who can do their own labor when installing a patio can save a substantial amount of money. Instead of higher-priced composite or resin

decks, homeowners can go with standard wood, which will need to be stained periodically. Scaling back the size of the deck means less materials to buy and less labor involved. The cost of patio blocks depends on the material and style. Poured concrete patios will cost less than placed blocks or stones because concrete is less labor-intensive. For those who desire the look of patio blocks without the cost, stamped concrete can mimic the look for less. Homeowners may not need to replace patio furniture, even if chairs and tables have seen better days. A can of spray paint can cover up any rusted areas or spots where paint has peeled off due to exposure to the elements. Updating cushions and purchasing a coordinating umbrella can revitalize the patio’s entire look. Also, very often stores run sales to clear out

Sometimes saving means repurposing antiques or items found at garage sales. Thanks to the Internet, people can easily advertise items they no longer need or desire. A person can search for backyard items they need at a deep discount if they are fine with previously used materials. From patio furniture to masonry blocks to above-ground pools, patient homeowners can find just about any item they may need to upgrade their backyards. Though not all homeowners can afford to create the backyard of their dreams, with a little ingenuity and some sweat hard work, homeowners can still create an outdoor oasis.

merchandise for new displays. Defining edges of planting borders and refreshing the landscape may be all that is needed to improve the yard. This is easily achieved with inexpensive mulch and some vinyl edging. While cleaning up the yard, use a pressure washer to clean stains off of siding and patios and create a like-new appearance. End-of-season sales can also be the ideal opportunity to purchase big-ticket items like a pool, a hot tub or an outdoor fireplace/fire pit. Shoppers can learn when stores discount their merchandise to make room for new inventory and then use these sales as opportunities to save.

He stated the Napanee plant is 60,000 square feet and the employees there will produce the new VOLT solar module system that will serve the European market. SEG also acquired Eclipsall

Manufacturing Corporation of Toronto, which will allow the company to continue to employee 38 people at the Toronto facility. SEG has also announced the establishment of an innovative North American Business Centre/Incubator that will assist European and Asian renewable energy companies interested in the Canadian and U.S. markets.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Strathcona Solar is extremely grateful for the remarkable government and civic support we have received on every level of growth,â&#x20AC;?

News - Greater Napanee - An economic announcement made in the Bay of Quinteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most eastern community Friday, October 10, should mean great news for job seekers across the region. A ribbon was cut to mark the opening of Strathcona Solar Initiativesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; new manufacturing plant. According to a press release by the Lennox & Addington Community Futures Development Corporation, the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opening will lead to 50 new jobs in Napanee. But along with the opening of the new plant, the business has also acquired Mage Solar of Atlanta and a second company from Newark, New Jersey. These acquisitions trigger the growth of a broader Strathcona Energy Group (SEG). That group has purchased the former Nortel building in Belleville, where a new manufacturing facility is expected to employ 130 people. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exciting news for economic development groups, who have worked for years to promote eastern Ontario as a place where innovative businesses can thrive. Strathcona Solar Initiatives started in Napanee in 2009 and has grown significantly since. With the new acquisitions, the business will make renewable energy products for customers around the world. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a regional growth project and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a company thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s local,â&#x20AC;? said Stephen Paul, Lennox & Addington Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Director of Development and Community Services, who was part of Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s announcement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They [the owners] are entrepreneurs that were based in this area, and now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an international player in the solar business.â&#x20AC;? One of the most exciting aspects of the announcement, he said, is that the job growth is expected to happen almost immediately. The company is hoping for a 60-day startup period and expects to be producing products by the end of the year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not a year away or two years away,â&#x20AC;?

Fox Foundation ambassador presents 30-year pennant By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Much like Terry Fox, generations of students at Kent Public School have a dream, to raise as much money as they can for his Foundation. And to celebrate the efforts of students, both current and past, Krista Mather, an ambassador with the Terry Fox Foundation, arrived at the school last

week and presented a 30-year pennant. “We like to see this enthusiasm and excitement,” said Mather. The students raised $1,073.50 at the annual Terry Fox Run bringing the total raised since the school started participating to $10,977.97 “It is such a small school to raise so much,” she added.

Mather addressed the schoolchildren during a general assembly at which time she talked about the Foundation and did a bit of catching up by presenting six pennants altogether, one for every ﬁve years the students have participated. Six students accepted on behalf of the others. “The pennants are normally given every ﬁve years,” Mather explained. She has joined a group of others representing the Foundation. “The Foundation has a group of us—ambassadors. Because this next generation doesn’t know the story of Terry, they weren’t there, they didn’t see him run, they don’t have a good sense of who he was and we don’t want anyone to forget him,” she said. “We don’t want his story to go untold so we are also going into the schools in September for their kick off if invited and we tell them about Terry,” she added. Mather was headed to Brighton Public School and to Havelock later the same day to present 15-

year and 20-year pennants respectively. “We try not to focus on the fund raising … more the excitement, but if they’ve done something big to celebrate and they’ve done an awesome job then we try to get them to celebrate that,” said Mather. Sarah Budgell, a Grade 6/7 teacher at Kent said, “Before the walk we did a whole media campaign in our school, announcements and presentations off the Terry Fox web site … they have lesson plans. We did that in September to advertise the walk in our school.” And challenges were part of that campaign. “Teachers dressed up like super heroes when we reached $600 and Jason Kellogg [teacher] dyed his hair our school colours, blue and yellow. He hammed it up … it was fun,” she said. During the actual walk “the little ones walked around the school but the rest of the students joined the high school [Campbellford]. We had six great big cakes back at the school after.” The icing on the cake, she agreed, was receiving the pennants last week.

purple socks are also being sold for $20, with proceeds going to programs that prevent child abuse. Plus, on Sunday, October 19, Batawa Ski Hill will host Kanter for Kids, an event in which kids have the opportunity to ride horses,

Chefs from The Bridge and Capers of Campbellford, Sugar Caine Catering in Havelock, Our Lucky Stars Café in Warkworth, Banjo’s Grill in Hastings, as well as Island Park’s Chef, Adam Low, all volunteered to compete in this year’s event. “We saw this as a great opportunity to bring the community and local business partners together to raise awareness and support for this important cause,” said Chad Rowe, general manager of Island Park Retirement Community. “Our goal this year is to help raise $2,000,” Rowe added. According to the Breast Cancer Foundation’s latest statistics, it is estimated that 24,400 women and 210 men in Canada will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and that 5,000 women and 60 men will die from the disease in 2014. Island Park’s chef wouldn’t give up any of his secrets when interviewed about the fund-raising event. “It’s going to knock your socks off; I won’t say anything else. It would be unfair to give away my secrets about what I will be serving,” he said with a big grin. Low is eager to take on other local chefs for a good cause. “It’s all about raising mon-

Monument added to waterfront

By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - She is one of Belleville’s most famous early residents; a writer from the mid-1800s, whose books help us understand what life was like in an era when Canada was coming into its own. Now locals will have a chance to learn a little bit more about Susanna Moodie, as the stone which once marked her Belleville gravesite has been placed along the city’s waterfront. The move was started by a visitor, supported by the mayor, and handed over to a local monument business and representatives from the Hastings County Historical Society. The project was completed on Wednesday, October 8, when the tombstone was unveiled at Freestone Park, a peninsula-area of Belleville’s waterfront trail, not far from the Meyers Pier yacht dock. Gary Foster, the president of Campbell Monument, the business behind the project, said the tombstone will hopefully be seen by aspiring writers, who might feel motivated to follow in Susanna Moodie’s footsteps and produce work that honours the Belleville area. “Behind this monument, there is so much history, so many stories,” he said, during the ceremony, which was attended by a couple of dozen people who braved a vicious fall wind. The monument in fact pays tribute to Susanna Moodie and her husband, John Wedderburn Dunbar Moodie, the first sheriff of Hastings County. The tombstone refers to his wife by her maiden name, Susanna Strickland. The marble marker once sat in the Belleville Cemetery, but it was replaced with a new replica in 2001, with financing from the Campbell-Craft Restoration Fund, a program to restore important landmarks. The original tombstone was placed in Campbell Monument’s warehouse where it sat for years. Then, in July 2013, a visitor from Calgary, Kathleen Moors, noticed it in the back of the warehouse and wrote to Mayor Neil Ellis to encourage a campaign to get the original tombstone repaired and placed somewhere public. Ellis forwarded that request to Campbell Monuments and Hastings Historical Society officials. The ceremony was the conclusion of a year-long process to restore the marble tombstone and find a suitable place to put it. Historical Society President Richard Hughes said the process speaks to “the power of one citizen to light a fire.” Historical Society member Gerry Boyce spoke at the ceremony and read excerpts from some of Moodie’s books. Among Moodie’s most famous novels are Roughing it in the Bush, published in 1852 and Life in the Clearing, published in 1853. These books became popular in England and Europe. Susanna Moodie died in 1885, but her legacy lives on, particularly in Belleville, where a school is named after her and her original cottage, on Bridge Street East, is marked with a heritage plaque.

Local dragon boaters world-class athletes

By Ray Yurkowski

Sports - Brighton - Brighton was well represented at the recent ninth club crew world championships at Ravenna, Italy. In all, 14 residents paddled with the Quinte Heat of Belleville and mined four gold, two silver and three bronze medals at the world-class event. Not bad, considering the ﬁeld of more than 5,400 athletes from around the globe. The local athletes include Anna-Lisa Barnes, Tricia Boehme, Carolyn Campbell, Manny

Directo, Doug Harrison, Annette Haverson, Mary Linnett, Bob Marshall, Nancy McGowan, Nancy McNairn, Barb Michno, Mary Robertson, Julia Teng and Michael Warwick. After training and a barrage of tests throughout the past two years, the team had to qualify at the Canadian competition last year at Victoria, British Columbia. “First and most important is that none of this would ever have happened if it weren’t for the Brighton Dragon Boat Club,” said Boehme, who made

her third trip to the world championships this year. “This club has opened the doors for me and others to better ﬁtness, health, the outdoors and friendships.” McGowan agreed. “From the minute I climbed into the boat I was hooked,” she said. “Personal physical goals have been exceeded and I’ve pushed myself mentally to places I never thought I could get to.” Boehme recalls a silver medal win in the 200-metre event. Steersperson Carol Callingham

told the team to think about being one paddle, not the 20 seated in the boat. “We all zoned in on that,” she said. “I could hear one slice at paddle entry, one swoosh at exit and as the paddles were in air returning to the catch, I could hear the drips of water falling from the blades. It was at that moment I knew this would be a great race. I could feel the crew was one and that we would per-

Brighton club and the town.” The next focus for the local paddlers is the national competition at Welland in June 2015, where they need a top-ﬁve ﬁnish to qualify for the next club crew world championships at Australia in 2016. Training continues throughout the winter months until they can get back on the water in the spring. “It never ends,” said Boehme.

weekend, the Bulls had won six of seven games, putting them in a tie for top spot in the Eastern Conference. But the Greyhounds, as of Monday, had won all seven games they had played. The Niagara game will complete a home-and-home series which started Saturday, October 11, with an 8 - 5 Bulls win, in front of an announced crowd of 2,216 fans at the Yardmen Arena. The Bulls turned it into a blowout quickly, scoring five goals in the first 16 minutes of the game. Jake Marchment scored twice in the first period and Niki Petti, Brett Gustavsen and Remi Elie also scored in the first, allowing the Bulls to take a 5 - 1 lead into the first intermission. David Tomasek and Matt Luff scored in the second period and Alex Yuill added a goal in the third period to complete the Bulls scoring. Charlie Graham picked up the win in goal, stopping 38 out of 43 shots he faced. On Wednesday, October 8, the Bulls skated to a 4 - 1 win over the Plymouth Whalers. Plymouth led 1 - 0 early in the second period when Brandon Saigeon scored his first OHL goal to tie the game. Gustavsen scored a powerplay goal minutes later and the Bulls never looked back. Luff then scored a first OHL goal early the third period and Gustavsen added another goal, just 11 seconds after Luff’s goal, to put the game out of reach.

(257), Hunter Hoyle (363) and Nicholas Lawrence (401) paced the junior boys’ team to a 53rd place finish. One memorable highlight of the day, noted team coach Anne Falla, was the spontaneous rendition of ‘O Canada,’ sung at the starting line of the senior boys’ race by the 900 race competitors. Their impromptu performance caused race officials to stop the meet and show their respect by removing their hats. After a loud cheer from the crowd, the race began. Next up for ENSS Blue Dragons is the Bay of Quinte championship, at GoodrichLoomis Conservation Area, on October 15. The action

Pumpkin contest another way to celebrate Thanksgiving By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Scarecrows, giant pumpkins, carved pumpkins, painted and decorated pumpkins and pumpkin pies were all on display and being judged for the annual pumpkin contest. Presented by the Campbellford & District Horticultural Society and Sharpe’s Food Market, this annual event draws a crowd every year. This Thanksgiving weekend it was a day ﬁlled with sunshine

and the chatter of children as they waited for the winners to be announced. The judges took their time making sure to examine every entry with care. Lois Bennett, who organized the event his year received a lot of help from her husband Glenn and pie taster Paul Martin along with judges Fran McCrodden and Joan Martin. Siblings Noah and Jamie Sheridan of Campbellford have

been participating in the event for many years. This year they won the ﬁrst-place prize for having the heaviest pumpkin, which weighed in at 208 pounds. “We didn’t mean to grow it that big, we didn’t give it anything. We used seeds from last year’s big one it just happened naturally,” said Noah with a big grin. A loonie was handed to each participant by Laurie LaCavera and Barbara Kelleher from Sharpe’s.

News - Campbellford - Fungi can be cute and alluring or a killer hunter … knowing how to spot the difference is what people learned when they attended the recent “Fungi Walk” hosted by Friends of Ferris (FofF) Provincial Park. “Fungi can have three different types of employment, a decomposer, a farmer, or a third type of fungi which harvest sugar from trees,” said Phil Careless, an ecologist with Ontario

Parks. He conducted a quick orientation walk for the group then together they examined fungi specimens followed by a fun scavenger hunt. “In Ferris Park there are maybe 400 different species of fungi,” Careless told the Trent Hills Independent. “Some are massive big woody structures sticking out of trees where the fruiting body is like a shelf and some are like the regular little Smurf house while other ones look like a bright

Medical officer of health comments on Ebola virus By Sue Dickens

News - Peterborough - Ebola virus continues to be a major concern in parts of west Africa and now is being seen in people here in Canada and the U.S. Dr. Lynn Noseworthy, medical officer of health with the Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health unit provided information to Board of Health members at a recent meeting. With thousands of cases to date, Ebola has killed about half of the people who have contracted it, Dr. Noseworthy said. She detailed to board members the signs and symptoms of Ebola, as well as how the virus is transmitted. In a press release it was noted that the Health Unit has also provided information and resources about Ebola to local health care partners. While health officials in Canada are closely monitoring the situation in Africa, there have been no Ebola cases reported to date in this country. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The risk to Ontarians remains low,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Noseworthy said. As well she addressed the board in response to a question from one of the members about the evolving situation involving Enterovirus D68. This fall, laboratory confirmed cas-

es of the Enterovirus D68 have been found in Ontario and other parts of Canada, as well as approximately a dozen states in the United States. As of September 18, no local cases of Enterovirus D68 have been confirmed. According to Public Health Ontario, Enterovirus D68 is a specific enterovirus that causes respiratory illness.

Symptoms range from a mild coldlike illness with coughing and wheezing to severe infections that require hospitalization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Enterovirus D68 is more likely to affect children, since adults would have likely been exposed to it at some previous point in their lives,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Noseworthy noted. She is urging local residents to take similar precautions against Enterovirus D68, as they would with other re-

broader economic picture, in which the economy is projected to grow slowly for the foreseeable future. “Local businesses, for their part, worry about the cumulative impact that government regulatory and legislative changes will have on their competitiveness,” said Hamilton. He pointed out that the proposed pension plan comes at a challenging time for the province when Ontario’s unemployment rate remains above the national average and has showed little improvement over the past year.

What about the self-employed?” asked Hamilton. “These are questions that must be answered before moving forward with this pension plan.” Allan O’Dette, president and CEO of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce stated, “The retirement income challenge is a real one, but we need to ensure that any changes to the pension system are made with a full understanding of their impact on Ontario’s business climate.” To learn more read the chamber’s letter to the Government of Ontario at: <http://www.occ.ca/ policy/chamber-networkconcerned-about-proposed-ontario-pensionplan/>.
