News - Brighton - It seems Brighton is becoming a hotspot for scientiďŹ c research. First, it was a team from Penn State studying terns at Presqu’ile Park. Then, Laurentian University researchers began a four-year look at road kill and how better road construction can minimize large mam-

mals’ mortality. Now, as municipal council heard at their regular meeting on Monday night, the climate and atmospheric sciences section at Illinois State University is asking for permission to use the Ontario Street dock as part of their Ontario Winter Lake-effect Systems experiment in December 2013 and

News - Brighton – The Brighton Army Cadets will again be invading the streets of the municipality as they carry out ‘Operation Food Drive,’ in support of the local Fare Share Food Bank. This year marks the fourth annual First Canadian Parachute Battalion food drive, which will deploy 65 Cadets along with 22 Girl Guides going door-to-door collecting non-perishable donations for the cause. “We feel there is a need in Brighton and we want to help out where we can,” said organizer Robin Brooks. “And if we don’t see anything on the front step, we’ll be ringing doorbells.” According to food bank volunteers, the shelves are almost bare in a few areas. Some of the most pressing needs include crackers, canned meats, dry and hot cereals and juice. “They’ve got a lot of peanut butter,” says Brooks. “But they don’t have any type positioning samples jam to go with it.” Last year, the food drive effort filled three pickup trucks and organizers are hoping to help the food bank serve about 120 families who use the service. Operation Food Drive runs from 9 a.m. until noon on November 30.

News - Brighton – At their regular meeting on Monday night, Councillor Mike Vandertoorn was appointed as deputy mayor for the remainder of the current term of municipal council. In a recorded vote to maintain the position, only Councillor John Martinello was opposed. “I don’t think a deputy mayor is necessary at all,” he said. When Martinello asked if a raise in pay came with the job, nobody knew exactly how much but CAO Gayle Frost offered, “Yes, there is an increase in remuneration, but it’s minimal. It’s to recognize the additional work that may come with the position.”

Illinois school picks Brighton for project

January 2014. The latest scientiďŹ c study would require launching weather balloons to take observations during lake-effect snow storms to gain a better understanding of how they develop and ultimately improve forecasting of the storms. The project is funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation and is in collaboration with Environment Canada. In his letter to council, researcher David Kristovich says “the exact days and times will vary because they depend on the weather,â€? but typically launches will be every one-and-a-half to three hours, starting at 3 a.m. and ending around noon. “They are basically the same bal-

loons used by Environment Canada on a daily basis,â€? said Parks and Recreation Director Jim Millar during his report. “The fact that they have liability insurance and permission from both the air base at Trenton and air trafďŹ c control at Pearson Airport in Toronto, makes their request more sound.â€? But the decision wasn’t without some controversy. Before council had their say, two residents voiced their concerns during the ‘citizen comment’ portion of the meeting. “I don’t see any net beneďŹ t

to our municipality by doing this,â€? added Councillor Tom Rittwage. “I think there is a net beneďŹ t for Brighton,â€? countered Councillor John Martinello. “If this study leads to a better understanding of the environment and things that effect our environment, I think it’s worth it.â€? “I think we’re all very aware that storm systems are getting much more serious,â€? said Councillor Mary Tadman. “I think this may be a real beneďŹ t to us.â€? Council approved the request.

Hilton Hall has no room for Army Cadets location as a heritage centre, which was accepted by council. The cadets’ request included free use of the hall from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays from November 30 to April 30 for basic marksmanship training as well as biathlon and marksmanship team training using pellet ries. “I’m absolutely satisďŹ ed (the cadet program) would be an excellent use for the hall,â€? said Deputy Mayor Craig Kerr. “Unfortunately, it’s a situation where we have two good things but there has to be a choice.â€? “Instead of saying absolutely no, could we refer this to staff to see if there is somewhere else to accommodate the cadets?â€? wondered Councillor Mary Tadman. “Coming out with a at ‘no’ is not the message we want to give,â€? agreed Mayor Mark Walas. Council referred the request to municipal staff to investigate alternate locations. At their meeting last week, the Heritage Advisory Committee (HAC) ratiďŹ ed a proposal to municipal council in regard to the hall. The group is asking for changes to its mandate to include authorizing the use of the former township ofďŹ ce as a municipal heritage centre and setting up a subcommittee to oversee the project. Uses for the hall would include, but not necessarily be restricted to, workshops, discussion groups, presentations and displays focussed on heritage research, identiďŹ cation, conservation, education and celebration. Utility and building maintenance costs

would continue to be the responsibility of the municipality under the proposal but the cost of programming, equipment and material improvement would be covered by the committee budget. “I hope the selling point of this is what this committee does is an inherent part of carrying out the municipal strategy on heritage,� HAC chairperson Dave Cutler told the group last week. “What we do is municipal business. It’s not as if we are a separate organization that has other goals.� “They’ve been looking for a use for that building for some time,� added committee mem-

ber Joe Banbury. “Nobody is suggesting we should tear it down, but they don’t know what to do with it and we’re taking on that job.� “The key is, within the scope of our mandate, leaving it up to the subcommittee to go in whatever direction they choose,� said Cutler. “Everything would come back to the committee for approval and that in turn would go to council for approval through our minutes.� A delegation from the committee, to include Cutler and local historian Dan Buchanan, will pitch the proposal to council at their December 2 meeting.

Cyclists need education in rules of the road

Dear Editor, I was reading one of my regular trucking magazine reads this week when a subject being covered refreshed my memory regarding a recent event I had experienced. The topic was under safety and was entitled, “2 wheels vs.18. Who wins?” Clearly the subject dealt with the operation of bicycles, primarily in cities, and the unfortunate events that occur when large trucks and cyclists collide. It discusses an initiative/ campaign being undertaken by the Share The Road Cycling Coalition. While I won’t go into detail on the topic, it primarily involves educating cyclists about the inherent dangers of riding around trucks. Especially alongside/up into the blind spot on the right side of a truck while they are making right turns (cars, you are guilty of this too). Anyone who is interested in reading about the topic, it can be found in the November issue of Today’s Trucking. Now here’s my issue. A few weeks ago, while proceeding to make a right turn from Highway 62 South in Madoc, onto St. Lawrence Street West, I came very close to striking/ having a cyclist strike my vehicle. Anyone who comes to this intersection knows how limited visibility is in both directions, but much worse to the west where the building (old bakery) on the northwest corner comes out to the sidewalk. After sticking my vehicle’s nose out far enough to see as well as possible and after confirming that it was safe to turn right, I checked to my right again to make sure there weren’t any pedestrians entering/about to enter the sidewalk. I had just started moving when a cyclist entered the intersection immediately in front of my vehicle from my right side. Clearly the cyclist had been riding on the wrong side of the road and owing to vehicles legally parked on the north shoulder of St. Lawrence Street, I was unable to see them. I must admit that a vehicle which had slowed considerably before making their left turn from St. Lawrence Street East

Lockets for a Loved One

We have many different styles of lockets to choose from in silver, gold and gold filled.

R0012428252

I previously wrote the following; Here’s what happened; upon renewing my Home Insurance recently, I found myself being asked politely if I can change my oil furnace to gas. I know I am not alone. So, doing a little research, I found out that there are many reasons to do so. Let me name a few; 1. Natural gas or propane is reason enough to save on energy, I understand it can be as much as 70%/year as well as provide my family with a very efficient heating and cooling system. 2. Furthermore, the Ont. Power Auth.(opa) allow up to $650 in an incentive program (with eligibility). Then a co-worker told me about Access HVAC in Belleville, ON. They offered him a financing plan under $100/mth with no payments for the first 12 mths (oac). 3. They also provided him with an additional rebate incentive which once combined with the OPA was up to $2000. 4. Apparently they converted everything for him the same day. Plus my co-worker had no gas in the area, No Problem, Access HVAC set everything with propane. My wife told me, “what are you waiting for, call them now!” She said she wants those incentives to help us with X-Mas. They guaranteed us the install before Santa even shows up this year. Their Guarantee Before Santa Install Program is still available till including December, 2013. Call them as I did at 613-689-7058. Have a Wonderful Warm Winter as my family will. (OPA: Ontario Power Authority, OAC: On Approved Credit)

to Highway 62 North caught my attention, since there didn’t appear to be any logical reason for their behaviour. Clearly there was, since they didn’t want to run over this same cyclist while making their left turn. As a former professional Class “A” driver for close to 15 years and the former director of safety with a local transportation company for 15 years, I believe I have a fair grasp of what is considered safe vehicle operation. I’ll admit though that I am not perfect and have made a few mistakes over my driving career. From my limited observations though, it is quite clear that many cyclists do not treat a bicycle as a vehicle. They believe that the rules of the road do not apply to them. They can ride on sidewalks (and Lord knows, I can understand why they want to ride there) and sometimes ride facing traffic (like pedestrians). The problem is vehicle operators expect pedestrians to use the sidewalk and cyclists to use the roadway, while adhering to regulations like every other vehicle that is bound by the Highway Traffic Act. Clearly many cyclists either need to take a formal test to ensure that they know their responsibilities, or parents and enforcement personnel need to do a much better job of educating cyclists. Cyclists, you have a responsibility! And just to be clear, the cyclist that crossed my path was not a child, has a driver’s licence (I’ve seen them driving) and probably is as old as I am. They likely don’t need to be educated about how to drive a vehicle, but clearly they need to realize they ARE operating one. When cycling, they need to follow the same rules they do when driving an automobile. I may not have been driving an 18(+) wheeler that day, but I do know who would have won the contest. They weren’t wearing a helmet to protect their head! So cyclists, polish up on the rules of the road! It may save your life and/or those of your children!

Dear Editor, Has anyone figured out how we got duped into paying HST on the debt retirement charge on our Hydro bill? Is that even legal? Since when do loan repayments attract HST? Butch Cailes Belleville

Chinese demographics

Editorial - The big news of the week is that China’s one-child policy is being relaxed. After 34 years when most Chinese families were officially limited to only one child, most couples will now be allowed to have two children. The reality, however, is that it will make very little difference. It will make little difference because only about one-third of Chinese couples were still living under those restrictions Gwynne Dyer anyway. The one-child limit never applied to ethnic minorities, and in the past fifteen years it has rarely applied to people living in rural areas either: couples whose first child was a girl are almost always allowed to have a second child (in the hope that it will be a boy). Controls were stricter in the cities, but if both prospective parents were only children themselves they were exempt from the limit. And people with enough money can just ignore the rules: the penalty for having a second child is just a stiff fine up front and the extra cost of raising a child who is not entitled to free education. (The fines are reported to have raised $2.12 billion for the state coffers last year alone.) The net result of all this is that the China’s current fertility rate (the average number of children a woman will bear in a lifetime) is not 1.0, as it would be if there were a really strict one-child policy. According to United Nations statistics, it is 1.55, about the same as Canada. Which suggests that most Chinese who really wanted a second child got one. The new rules that have just been announced by the Third Plenum of the Communist Party say that urban people can now have a legal second child if just one of the would-be parents was an only child. This is not going to unleash a wave of extra babies; it will raise the fertility rate, at most, to 1.6. (“Replacement” level is 2.1.) Indeed, it’s questionable whether the one-child policy really held down China’s birth rate at all. There are demographers who argue that the one-child policy hasn’t really made much difference. China was already urbanising fast when the policy was imposed in 1979, and the more urban a country is, the lower the birth rate. From about 1970 there was also a very aggressive birth control policy. The fertility rate in China had already dropped from 5.8 children per woman in 1970 to only 2.7 in 1978, the year before the one-child rule was introduced. It has since fallen to 1.55, but that might well have happened anyway. For com-

parison, Brazil’s fertility rate has dropped from 6.0 fifty years ago to 1.7 now WITHOUT a one-child policy. China’s National Population and Family Planning Commission claims that the one-child policy has spared the country an extra 400 million mouths to feed, but it would say that, wouldn’t it? The real number of births avoided by that policy is probably no more than 100 million in three decades. And if we accept these numbers, then three major conclusions follow. The first is that the one-child policy is not the major culprit in China’s disastrous gender imbalance, with at least 120 boys born for every 100 girls. The social effects of this are very dangerous: by the end of this decade there will be 24 million “leftover” men who will never find a wife. Any sane government would be terrified by the prospect of a huge army of unattached and dissatisfied young men hanging around the streets after work with nothing much to do. A regime with as little legitimacy as the Communists will be even more frightened by it. Unfortunately for them, ending the one-child policy will have little effect on this pattern. Only state intervention as arbitrary and intrusive as the one-child policy could reverse the gender imbalance, and it is doubtful that the Communist regime is still confident enough to risk that degree of unpopularity. The second conclusion we can draw from these statistics is that China’s population is going to drop whether the regime wants it or not. It will peak at or below 1.4 billion, possibly as soon as 2017, and then begin a long decline that will see it fall to 1.2 billion by 2050. There’s nothing wrong with that in principle, but it exacerbates what is already the greatest threat to economic growth in China: the population’s rapidly rising average age. The big, old generations will be around for a long time, but the younger generations are getting smaller very fast. Indeed, the number of people in the 20-24 age group in China will halve in the next ten years. This means the dependency rate is going to skyrocket. In 1975, there were 7.7 people in the workforce for every person over sixty: by 2050, the ratio will be only 1.6 employed persons for every retiree. No country has ever had to bear such a burden before, but ending the one-child policy won’t get the birth rate back up. The only way China could increase its workforce to lessen the burden is to open up the country to mass immigration. And what are the odds on that?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Say no to Internet censorship Dear Editor, Canadian government officials are working with those from 11 other nations to finalize the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). I am very concerned about the TPP, which is currently being negotiated without public input. We know from documents revealed by Wikileaks that the TPP includes an Internet censorship plan that would make the Internet more policed, expensive and censored. Experts have pointed out that under the TPP, “kids could be sent to jail for downloading” and whole families could be kicked off the Internet. It would force Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to become Internet police and monitor my Internet use, censor website content, and remove entire websites from my view. It would also hinder our ability to access information and criminalize our every day use of the Internet. As a concerned citizen, I am speaking out for a free and open Internet. The TPP would also limit accessibility for disabled people. Visually impaired or deaf people would be criminal-

ized for circumventing digital locks on any digital materials they have purchased. This means they would be unable to convert them to braille, audio, or other accessible formats. I believe that the Internet should be open and accessible to everyone. In addition, the TPP’s proposal to force ISPs to install costly and invasive surveillance equipment into their networks gravely worries me. These added costs would drive up everyone’s Internet bills and could force smaller independent Internet providers out of business. I believe that Internet access is a right and should be kept open and affordable for everyone. Already over 120,000 have signed the Say No to Internet Censorship petition. I encourage everyone to learn more about TPP Internet censorship before it’s too late at this website: https://OpenMedia.org/Censorship I encourage each and every Canadian to learn more about the TPP at OpenMedia.org/Censorship.

 Campbellford

And now back to our regular programming By Terry Bush

Editorial - One might almost get the impression that Toronto Mayor Rob Ford is one of the most important people in the world given all the coverage he’s received over the past couple of weeks. Rob Ford still wants to be Prime Minister of Canada according to a headline on Monday. Chances are pretty slim that Ford will ever sit in Parliament unless he moves to Alberta. We would hope Canadians are a little smarter than that. It’s really too bad for the Fords that they weren’t born in the United States. Washington Mayor Marion Barry smoked crack and was re-elected mayor after a vacation in custody and is still on Washington city council. If someone ever deserved to be quickly relegated to the dustbin of history after one term in office, it was George W Bush, but Americans inexplicably re-elected him despite the lies and deception that cost trillions and close to a million lives by some accounts. So despite the fact that Mayor Rob Ford has appeared on pretty well every top ten list on late night television in the past week, there really are more important things going on in the world. The ongoing negotiations between the permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany and Iran has to rank somewhere near the top of current world events. After all, a little goodwill shown towards Iran would go a long way towards restoring some semblance of peace in the Middle East especially in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon where Iran has influence. That would be beneficial to the whole world. But what’s going on behind the scenes is a little disturbing. Both the United States’ intelligence community and Israel’s intelligence community have stated that to the best of their knowledge, Iran isn’t pursuing nuclear weapons. International inspectors on the ground say all nuclear material in Iran has been accounted for and nothing has been diverted to a nuclear weapons program. Construction of nuclear facilities in Iran has almost completely shut down. Yet, despite the assurances of their intelligence agencies, politicians in both countries continue to say that Iran is building a bomb. Israel has been saying Iran is six months away from a bomb for almost 20 years so obviously that record will never stop skipping. What has happened since Iranians elected a new president has been a complete about face when it comes to dealing with the west. So if Iranian President Rouhani is pushing for engagement and willing to put his neck on the line to get an agreement with the security council concerning Iran’s nuclear energy program, does anyone think for a moment that the Grand Ayatollah who actually runs the country isn’t on board. Wouldn’t a deal that opens up the country’s nuclear plants to even more intense scrutiny than is required as a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty be a good thing? Not according to Saudi Arabia and Israel who have pulled out all the stops to quash any deal with Iran. In fact a deal was almost done last week until the French pulled a fast one changing the language in the agreement and adding conditions at the last minute. It should surprise no one that huge deal involving France selling more arms to the Saudis put the kibosh on that one. That and a phone call from the Israeli Prime Minister. The Saudis, a regime not shy about backing terrorists as long as they’re of the Sunni variety, will never support any deal involving Shiite Iran, its regional rival. A poor, disabled Iran is just what the doctor ordered. Israel for its part has been relentless in trying to block any deal that may come out of these meetings. They say they won’t abide by it. They’ve done their best to control US lawmakers through calls and lobbying, utilizing their powerful lobby group AIPAC to once again strike fear in the hearts of incumbents seeking re-election. Members of the US congress are drawing up even more sanctions despite Iran’s overtures and many vow to block any deal Obama’s team might make. Israel has also been lobbying countries on the Security Council to make sure no deal gets done. The problem is, if a deal, even an interim deal is completed with Iran, then Israel’s settlement of the West Bank and East Jerusalem will come to the forefront of world news and there’s no way a right wing government in Israel which depends on settlers’ support could let that happen. Israel, despite its many advantages including having a big brother with a big stick in the USA, doesn’t want any competition in the region either. The fact that Israel has nuclear weapons, chemical weapons and biological weapons in its arsenal never seems to come up unless you’re talking to its neighbours. So once again we have politicians looking out for basically themselves and the arms industry despite the objections of their constituents. French President Francois Allende has the lowest approval rating of any French president since 1958 yet sees no reason to listen to the public. The US Congress has an approval rating of around ten percent these days, a rating that might suggest their constituents don’t have any use for them or how they’re representing American interests. The American people are starting to wake up to the abuses of their government, congress and the senate. People power stopped the US bombing of Syria in its tracks. Sixty-six percent of Americans think a deal with Iran is in their best interests. It might just be time politicians around the world started listening to the people who elected them. That would be a pleasant change.

Dear Editor, I wish to respond to Chris Faiers’ letter to the editor in the October 31 edition of Central Hastings News. Mr. Faiers makes a number of statements that are factually incorrect and I would like to see accurate information presented. Canadians have been required to apply for OAS for many, many years, long before the “Harperite” regime. Service Canada, under the Harper government, is currently revising the process so that his circumstances, with an annual income of $4,800 from CPP, Mr. Faiers qualifies for combined OAS and GIS annually of $12,557.76, plus $996 annually in GAINS. These supplements would take Mr. Faiers’ income from $11,400 to $18,353.76. This exceeds the $16,800 on which Mr. Faiers says he could almost survive. The minimum guaranteed annual income of a Canadian senior in Ontario is $16,573.20, not a lot, but significantly more than the $12,000 the writer reports

Brighton Council agrees to pay for services they can get for free

Dear Editor, I am writing regarding an item discussed at the Brighton Municipal Council meeting on November 4th. At that meeting, council passed a motion to renew an agreement with a company called LAS to perform Closed Meeting Investigations. From the discussion it seems that they charge $330 per year and $225 per hour for legal fees, whereas the same service can be provided by the office of the Ontario Ombudsman without any cost to the municipality. This makes no sense to me or to the other taxpayers that I have spoken with. It is a disgraceful waste to pay for something that is provided for free and if council is going to be throwing our money away, I hope that they won’t be looking to increase our taxes again this year. Is this the same perspective they have on all our expenditures? Drew MacDonald, Brighton

News - Brighton – Dozens of supporters and curiosity seekers were on hand last weekend as the Brighton YMCA said “thanks.â€? InApril, when YMCANorthumberland ofďŹ cials announced they would be closing the doors at the local branch, a grassroots campaign team gathered petitions and made its case known to municipal politicians. At a public meeting in May, testimonials from members and endorsements from Family Health Team doctors led to the creation of a working committee charged with keeping the ‘Y’ in town. The group included representatives from the municipality, YMCA, Brighton Health Services Centre (BHSC), the Family Health Team and YMCA membership. In July, Brighton Council voted unanimously to renew their support, in the amount of $30,000 annually for the next ďŹ ve years. On the weekend, BHSC board member Bev Anderson expressed her gratitude for the YMCA decision to stay in Brighton. “The YMCA is our longest-term tenant,â€? she said. “They’ve been here for 10 years.â€? Dr. Richard Wiginton announced a partnership with the ‘Y’ and Family Health Team nurses on a wellness program, which would include programs to help clients reach and maintain a healthy lifestyle as well as access to exercise facilities. “It’s based on the Stanford model, which is a well recognized way of people taking responsibility for their own health care and becoming preachers themselves to carry that message to others,â€? he said. “It’s an exciting time, with the integration of what we’re doing next door and what’s happening here.â€? The thank-you celebration also marked the ofďŹ cial launch of the ‘Trim Down With Tom’ campaign as municipal Councillor Tom Rittwage vies to shed 100 pounds. “You can support Tom by pledging a dollar amount or you can join Tom in your own weight loss program and get pledges yourself,â€? explained Brighton YMCA membership services coordinator Anne Gear. “All funds received during the campaign are being put towards the purchase of a new Arc Trainer.â€? “The ďŹ rst to sign up is MP Rick Norlock, for one dollar per pound,â€? Rittwage announced to the crowd. At the ofďŹ cial weigh-in, Rittwage tipped the scales at 387 pounds. The ďŹ nal tally will take place in April 2014.

newer and could more quickly track infections that have spread through the body. “If a woman is pregnant we could immediately tell if she has miscarried or not,â€? he added. “We could also ďŹ nd fractures resulting in back pain. It would be useful ďŹ nding out how well hydrated an old person is. We use it

quite a bit.� He said the portable version of the ultrasound is very convenient in the emergency department. They can bring it to the patient and not have to wheel patients to another room. “It’s for critical use,� he adds. “These are serious traumas, cardiac arrest and serious illnesses.�

The TMH emergency department sees 35,000 patients a year. The new equipment would also save on wait times. Donations can be made online at tmhfoundation.com or mailed into TMH Foundation at 242 King St. Trenton K8V 5S6 or by calling 613392-2540 ext 5401.

Students encouraged to celebrate everyday heroes and not be bullies News - Brighton – Sticks and stones can break bones but name-calling can do just as much damage, crushing the spirits of its victims. This week Brighton Public School launched a four-week program “to head off any potential issues” with bullying, principal Mary-Beth Zeggil said, by having the founder of a character building educational company, Celebrate the Hero, address students in a pair of assemblies Monday morning. The first one was for students in Kindergarten to Grade 3. Nick Foley kept their attention the entire half-hour with an interactive presentation that showed the youngsters

the harm that can come from hurtful remarks. He encouraged them to make good choices and to treat each other positively. For the older students, the message was to accept individuality and, with the help of real-life stories, recognize the detriment that bullying can wreak. “It’s all based around self-esteem and doing good in their community,” Foley said in an interview prior to the assemblies. “We don’t talk about the bully ... we just say let’s celebrate the goodness that we’re all capable of and build on that.” The program includes follow-up visits and various activities that include, for students above Kindergarten, filling out slips that

celebrate what makes classmates individual heroes. After four weeks, the slips are put together in a booklet the students receive containing “all kinds of great things their friends have said about them,” Foley said. “At the end of it the kids are usually feeling pretty good about themselves.” Brighton Public School has also introduced a peer helper program to organize games that promote cooperative play. It gives the students “something to do constructively” during the twice-a-day recesses, special education teacher Lisa Facciol said. “Some kids just don’t know what to do on the yard,” Zeggil said. The peer helpers are “also modelling prop-

er behaviour,” to set an example for the other students. To encourage communication between students and the school administration, boxes have been placed throughout the school to allow students to report incidents of bullying anonymously, which teaching staff can act upon if necessary. This was seen as a better option than the box placed in the main office for the same purpose, which was viewed as a negative because of its location, Facciol said. Zeggil said “any kind of negative has an impact on students, and bullying is one of those negatives. If students aren’t feeling safe and they’re not feeling accepted, then they’re not going to perform to the best of their ability. We want to make sure students are feeling safe, that their voice is heard. It’s really important that students have a chance to speak out.” They will become better community members and want to do things “if they’re feeling accepted,” Facciol said. But if negative things are said to or about them, “they’re going to withdraw socially and academically.

Natural Natural Gas Gas

Twice as much hot water.That’s fast. Plus a natural gas water heater costs more than $300 less per year to operate than electric.That’s more than $4,300 in savings over the 13-year lifespan of your water heater. And you don’t have to worry about what time of day you use it. Natural gas is the same low price all day long. And, since natural gas costs less now than five years ago, you save even more.

“The best way to prevent the flu is to be immunized every year,� says the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit. “Studies have shown that the flu shot can prevent up to 80 per cent of influenza cases in healthy adults and children�; in older adults, it can prevent or reduce complications and hospitalizations. The health unit organized eight free flu vaccination clinics in Northumberland County, including one at Evangel Pentecostal Church in Brighton November 16, where Hilary Groves was immunized by vaccinator Edit Danilko. The last clinic will take place this Saturday, November 23, at Campbellford Baptist Church, between 10 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Photo: John Campbell

Water services include raw water for ski hill By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West – Water and Wastewater Services include a raw water line from Frankford to feed Batawa Ski Hill. Quinte West Coun. Keith Reid asked at a recent Public Works committee meeting if that line was designated just for the ski hill. Chris Angelo, director of Public Works and Environmental Services, said it was. “The line was extended from Frankford to Batawa,” Angelo said. “The line is maintained for Batawa fire protection. We may consider different options. The pumps need to be upgraded. We are having discussions with Mrs. Bata. We don’t want a detriment to the ski hill so we will continue to absorb those costs.” Matt Tracey, manager of water and wastewater services, reported to the committee that several water leaks have been detected within the city. A water

leak was repaired on the raw water main in Batawa. “This was a fairly significant leak,” he said. “The city had to replace approximately 25 of the raw water mains. The system has been put back online and no additional leaks have been detected.” He added that the Permit to Take Water allowance has been exceeded since March 29, 2013 and notification to the Ministry has been made. New chlorination equipment was commissioned on the Frankford/Batawa Water Treatment Plant on November 14 by Genivar Engineering. The old process equipment will be removed. Tracey reported that the Trenton Water Treatment Plant had some problems when a booster pump at Mount Pelion failed and had to be replaced. “During the wind storm on November 1 the membrane roof on the Mount Pe-

lion Booster Station sustained some damages,” he added. “Temporary repairs are being made with the roof scheduled for replacement in 2014. There are continual problems with vandalism, people on the roof.” Trenton Wastewater Treatment plant had a raw sludge spill on October 11, as a result of a valve failure. “This was a mess,” Tracey said. “It blew a hole in the bottom of the valve.” Due to the hazardous nature and volume of the spill, First On Site remediation company was contracted to clean up the site. A portion of the cost will be recovered through insurance. The city has hired Mirtren Contractors to perform the necessary repairs at the facility. Coun. Don Kuntze asked about the insurance claims and Tracey said it will cost $25,000 to restore the facility. Jim Harrison asked if there were enough

alarms on the buildings. Tracey said there are alarms during the week but not on weekends. Harrison suggested they get more sensors. “If it happens on Friday you won’t catch it until Monday,” Harrison noted. Tracey said he will look

into it. The Dundas Street Pump Station upgrades have been tendered out and may start as early as December. Tracey said they need to replace three pumps and there is a problem with asbestos removal.

Proceeds from wellness fair, dance to benefit local family By John Campbell

News - Warkworth – The fourth Warkworth Health and Wellness Fair wasn’t just about selling things that make people in general feel better. It also had to do with helping one family in particular, Chris and Krista Gutteridge and their three children. “(Chris) has some serious health issues that has put him into the hospital for quite an amount of time ... so things are really tight with them financially,” said fair organizer Cherie Whalen. All proceeds from the Nov. 16 event at the Warkworth Town Hall Centre for the Arts were to go to family, as were the proceeds raised at a Legion dance that night organized by Whalen’s husband, Jake. “It’s great to be able to come out here and support not only health and wellness but mostly (the Gutteridges),” said Cait Lynch, a personal trainer, yoga and Pilates instructor participating in her first fair. “Coming into the holidays (they) will need some extra help.” Whalen, an independent consultant associated with Arbonne, a maker of personal care and wellness products, started the fair to make people aware

of the options that exist within the health and wellness industry. But she has always made a point of directing proceeds to a worthwhile cause each time it’s held. Sixteen vendors set up at the centre, offering an array of goods and services that include Reiki, reflexology, massage therapy and skin care products. It was a new experience for Lynch, who has operated her Warkworth-area CustomFit business for 10 years, offering 15 classes a week in yoga, Pilates and high intensity, interval training in a renovated century-old barn. Her clients range from 10 years old to 70-plus. “We have something for everyone,” she said. “We are big into technique and safety (and) focused on educating our clients holistically.” Nutrition coaching is a major part of her business, as is making clients understand “why they’re doing what they’re doing,” so they’re not attending classes “like robots.” The hour-long classes begin at 6:30 a.m. and continue until 6:45 p.m. Reiki practitioners Donna Shannon, standing, and Barbara Kelleher demonstrate how to “balance the energies” in fellow Reiki “It’s a long day but I love it, it’s my passion,” practitioner Dawn Burns’ body, to promote relaxation and healing.

Santa Claus is coming to town!

News – Quinte West – Santa is a busy boy! If you caught him in Brighton and Belleville and maybe even in Consecon on the weekend, you know he is driving his sleigh quickly throughout the area. The Trenton parade is on Sunday, November 24, leaving from Centennial Park at 4:30 p.m. towards the downtown where the Christmas Fantasy will be lit in Fraser Park. The Trenton DBIA is also holding its Festival Sights and Winter Lights annual window decorating contest display throughout the downtown. The theme this year is “Believe in the Magic of Christmas.” The deadline for downtown businesses to sign up is November 22. Contact the DBIA at 613-394-4318 or email dbia@downtowntrenton.ca. The judging will take place on November 28. The first place winner will take home $500 cash, second place is $300 in advertising on Rock 107 and third place is $100, sponsored by the city, DBIA and Rock 107. The lighting of the menorah in Fraser Park will take place on Wednesday, November 27 at 6 p.m. All are invited to take part in the traditional Jewish celebration of the beginning of Hanukkah, the Celebration of Lights, which runs eight days until December 5. Hanukkah is the commemoration of the rededication of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem at the time of the Maccabean Revolt against the Seleucid Empire in second century BCE. One candle is lit each night. On Thursday, November 28, join in the Jingle Bell Walk around downtown Trenton and enjoy the decorations. The walk will meet at City Hall at 6:15 p.m.

and be back at Fraser Park for the opening of the Nativity Celebration at 6:45 p.m. joining the Murray Centennial School Choir in Christmas songs. Follow the piper back to City Hall for refreshments served by the DIBA and more music by Murray Centennial and the Trenton Christian School Band. The Frankford Santa Claus parade is lining up to be a

big one, as popular as ever. It leaves the arena at 2 p.m. on Saturday, November 30 and winds its way past the Legion where Santa is ready to hand out candy canes to the kids. Then the lights are on in the Frankford Tourist Park with the gorgeous festive decorations of Christmas Fantasy of Lights, thanks to the hard work of many dedicated volunteers.

Quinte Red Devils report Atom The Quinte Carpet One Atom Red Devils had an excellent week in spite of injury and illness, picking up ďŹ ve out of six points in three ETA league games. In game one, the Devils travelled to Woodville on Wednesday night, ďŹ ring 29 shots at the Central Ontario Wolves and allowing only six, but needed a big last minute penalty kill to pick up a 2 - 1 win. Ethan Fraser picked up the win in goal. Lucas Culhane scored both goals for the Red Devils unassisted in his only appearance in the lineup of the week. In game two, the Devils overcame a short bench and a 3 - 1 deďŹ cit, picking up a 3 - 3 tie with the Clarington Toros. Nate Burelle led the attack with a goal and an assist, while Ross Maycock and Tanner Jones added single markers. Once again, a last minute penalty kill was crucial in the tie. Dixon Grimes was rock solid between the pipes for the Devils, making 17 saves in the tie. Returning home to the Devil Dome in Frankford, the Devils welcomed powerforward Ty Gauvin back in to the lineup after a two game absence with a 4 - 1 win over the North Central Predators. Maguire Shortt led the offence with a goal and an assist while Tanner Smith, Ross Maycock and Isaac Macleod also found the back of the net for the Devils. Nate Huffman, Tanner Jones, Gauvin and Matthew Lombardi picked up assists in the win. Ethan Fraser was very strong in the Devils goal, stopping 17 shots in the win.

Hoops championships decided

By Steve Jessel

Sports - Belleville - Central Ontario Secondary Schools Athletics AAA girl’s basketball took centre stage at Nicholson Catholic College on November 14, capped off by a pair of championship matches featuring three local high school teams. On the junior side, the host Nicholson Crusaders took on the St. Theresa Titans in an all-Bay of Quinte final, and in a close game

the Titans claimed the title with a 40 - 35 victory. The Titans led 23 - 17 at the half and never trailed during the final two quarters, led by Alex Sagriff’s 21 points. The Crusaders trailed by just four points with a 1:30 left in the game, but six consecutive missed free throws by Nicholson in the closing minutes were the deciding factor in the Titans’ win. Nicholson was led by Ciana Bailey with 12 points and Josie Clarey with eight.

“They played amazingly today,� said Titans coach Tina Roach. “They’ve improved so much over the season and we can’t ask for anything more.� In the first semifinal from the senior bracket, the host Crusaders lost to Thomas A. Stewart from Peterborough 28 - 17, while the hometown Quinte Saints advanced after a 45 - 40 semifinal win over Adam Scott. This set up a defensive struggle where the TAS Griffins narrowly escaped Belleville with a 37 - 33 win over the Saints to claim the COSSA AAA championship. “I think we played awesome, we really worked hard on defense and got our offense going in the third quarter,� said Saints coach Liane Woodley. “We had a great year, we finished third in our league and while we didn’t win Bay of Quinte we did come back and won a silver medal at COSSA [today]. Last year we won three games, so I think that’s quite an improvement.� After a low -scoring first quarter ended with the Griffins leading the Saints 8 - 5, TAS began to apply the pressure in the second quarter. The Griffins’ Keirsten Mangold was an

absolute force under the net, collecting rebounds and consistently getting good shots at the rim. With some cold shooting the Saints trailed 21 - 9 at the half. However, when the second half got underway, the Saints’ shooting started to pick up. The Saints’ Brooke Fleming, Roberta Drummond and

Elizabeth Drummond combined to outscore the Griffins 19 - 10 in the third quarter, led by Fleming’s 12, and the Saints trailed by just three points heading into the fourth. A spirited effort in the game’s final minutes had the Saints as close as four points with 1:30 remaining, but Quinte couldn’t

D A E R SP E

overcome Mangold’s gamehigh 18 points and lost by a final score of 37 - 33. Fleming led the Saints scorers with 14 points. “I’m really proud of our team, they worked really hard all season and put a lot of dedication into the game,� Woodley said.

Empire Cheese reserve grand champion at Royal Winter Fair

By John Campbell

News - Trent Hills – Empire Cheese rules! The Campbellford-area farmers cooperative collected a pair of firsts at the Royal Winter Fair for its mild and extra mature cheddar cheese. It also collected two seconds (medium and extra mild), two thirds (marble and Stilton shaped cheddar), and was named reserve grand champion (mild cheddar). “I’m happy, it looks good (for) a small cheese manufacturer to do well against the big guys,” said Empire’s head cheese maker, Mark Erwin. Winning is nothing new for Erwin, who’s garnered numerous ribbons in 30 years of making cheese, including Mark Erwin, head cheese maker at Empire Cheese, displays the mild and extra mature cheddar entries that collected red ribbons at the Royal Winter Fair during the last six years that he’s been Nov. 1-10 in Toronto. The farmers’ cooperative was also named reserve grand champion. The cheeses were judged according to flavour, texture, close- employed at Empire.

2011. This year’s performance is the best the company has done at the annual competition held in Toronto since 2008 when it was proclaimed grand champion (Canadian variety cheese) and reserve champion, and earned seven toptwo finishes, including three firsts. Erwin said its “consistency in everything we do” that accounts for the cooperative’s stellar showings each year. That includes using good quality fresh milk and “cultures that work,” monitoring closely the acidic, salt and moisture content during the manufacturing process, and then aging the cheese properly afterward. Its products are made the traditional way, in open-style vats. That involves “a lot of manual labour,” turning the Please see “Area” on page B3

Local airman to receive award for bravery Quinte West – News - Canadian Armed Forces Master Corporal (M. Cpl.) Brent Nolasco, currently based at 8 Wing Trenton, is one of four recipients to be honoured at the 12th annual Justice Institute of British Columbia (JIBC) Foundation Awards for Justice and Public Safety Gala, presented by Scotiabank, being held at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver on November 28. Each year, the Awards Gala recognizes and acknowledges individuals and organizations that have made outstanding contributions in the areas of justice, public safety and community leadership.

This year, M. Cpl. Nolasco will receive The JIBC Foundation Heroes and Rescue Award for demonstrating courage in carrying out a difficult or heroic rescue to save another person’s life. M. Cpl. Nolasco was in training to become a Search and Rescue Technician at the Canadian Forces School of Search and Rescue in Comox, B.C., when he found himself responding to a reallife rescue situation in December 2012. It was during the practical portion of the medical phase of his training that a call came in about a car accident in Victoria where a vehicle had flipped over and

“Master Corporal Brent Nolasco is a true hero in every sense of the word.” Upon arrival at the scene, police and firefighters were attempting to turn the vehicle over but to no avail. Seeing that the passenger was still restrained in her seat belt, M. Cpl. Nolasco gave his knife to a police officer so he could cut the strap. Even after the shoulder strap was cut, the female passenger remained trapped. M. Cpl. Nolasco quickly recognized that the young woman was still being restrained by the lap belt. Without hesitation, he retrieved his knife,

entered the frigid water, cut the lap belt and freed the passenger. He then pulled her out of the wreckage, and with the help of the other emergency responders, carried her up the embankment to the ambulance where he performed chest compressions. While en route to hospital, the young woman regained a normal heart rhythm. “Master Corporal Brent Nolasco is a true hero in every sense of the word,” said John Chesman, JIBC Foundation Chair. “His bravery and selfless actions, while under such extreme stress, helped to save the life of another human being. Master Corporal Nolasco is a testament to the outstanding calibre of the Search and Rescue Technicians serving the Canadian Armed Forces. We are proud to present him with this award. ” M. Cpl. Nolasco will be attending the Awards Gala in Vancouver to accept his Master Corporal Brent Nolasco, shown here, has been nominated for the JIBC Foundation Heroes and Rescue Award. award.

Stirling - News - In the middle of one of many long rehearsals at the Stirling Festival Theatre, local firefighters arrived to rescue Rapunzel from her tower and provide a brief distraction and a perfect reason to break for lunch. It was a moment of levity for cast and crew last week as an intense work schedule continues in the lead-up to the Christmas Panto opening later this month. Managing Director David Vanderlip admits it is a busy time at the theatre, preparing for both a naughty and family version of Rapunzel: A Hairy Tale before its month-long run begins on November 22, but adds the building is alive with creative energy and the feeling is infective. Working with playwright Ken MacDougall and a team of actors, music directors, set and lighting designers and technical support, Vanderlip notes there are many elements involved in building a show from the ground up and polishing it for performance. And the resulting days can be long, he says.

From her tower at the Stirling Festival Theatre, Rapunzel, played by Kristi Frank, greets local firefighter Andrew Jeffs as he comes to her rescue. Cast and crew were interrupted during a recent rehearsal for the Christmas panto.

And sometimes a little distraction is required. “This is what we’re Midway through a rehearsal last week, Fire Chief Rick Cadsupposed to dick arrived with firefighters Andrew Jeffs, Megan Fargey be doing.” and Derrick Morgan, intent on rescuing the Panto star from “But I actually really like it,” he her fairy tale prison.

above the theatre stage. But after reassurances they were indeed professionals, Rapunzel, played by Kristi Frank, was safely brought back to earth and into the arms of awaiting firefighters. Cast and crew were quick to point cameras and cell phones to record the strange diversion from the script. Immediately after the rescue, Vanderlip consented to a break

for lunch. Rapunzel opens November 22 with shows, both naughty and family oriented, running until the already sold out New Year’s Eve show. Special guest Santa Claus will be attending the opening weekend. Ticket information is available by contacting the box office (613-3952100) or visiting their website at stirlingfestivaltheatre.com

Fiddlers will help Red Cross typhoon relief

Asphodel-Norwood – News - As in they’ve done in the past, the Donegal Fiddlers Orchestra is reaching out to the victims of the devastating Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines which killed over 3,600 people and left, at last estimation, another 1.9 million people homeless. The Donegal Fiddlers will use their December 7 Christmas dance to help raise funds for the Canadian Red Cross. Funds raised by the Red Cross and other charitable organizations working to assist typhoon victims are being matched by the federal government. In the past, the Orchestra has

raised money for Haitian earthquake victims and Habitat for Humanity. They’re inviting anyone who wants to make a donation to the Red Cross Typhoon Haiyan relief fund to come to the town hall December 7. The decision to “lead the local appeal for help in that faraway country” was a natural response, said orchestra member Ron Scott said. “When the need arises we must act quickly.” All proceeds from the dance will go to the Red Cross including cash and cheques especially dedicated to the cause as well as the admission at the door for the dance. “We invite not only our reg-

ular dancers but anyone else who would like to drop by for the evening to stay and have a dance, listen to the music and bring along a little pot luck for lunch at intermission,” said Scott. The concert, he said, will not only be an evening of socializing but a local opportunity to “have a positive effect in this devastated part of the world.” The federal government’s fund-matching program will run until December 9. “Since before the typhoon made landfall, Red Cross teams have been working around the clock to support thousands of people in the storm’s path,”

says Conrad Sauvé, secretary general and CEO of the Canadian Red Cross. Nine banks in Canada are also accepting donations in support of Red Cross relief efforts. The Red Cross has sent its state-of-the-art field hospital to the Philippines. The hospital can cover the health needs of over 100,000 people and treat patients by admitting them in the clinic or through out-patient services. The hospital can treat up to

300 patients a day as out-patients and provide immunization for 1,000 children if needed. It will be deployed by a core team of 12 Canadian medical and support staff and will have additional surgical capacity of up to 70 in-patient beds and will be supported by both material and personnel from the Norwegian and Hong King Red Cross.

Starlite Tour kicks off Christmas festival

Stirling - News - Officials and volunteers at the local agricultural museum have been busily preparing for the Christmas season and the return of the Starlite House Tour and Christmas at Farmtown Park this weekend. The House Tour, which features half a dozen local homes spectacularly decorated for the holidays, runs today (Thursday) from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. with many participants expected to arrive at the village’s agricultural museum immediately afterwards for the opening of the Home For the Holidays display in Heritage Village. Organizer Harry Danford, who was one of many involved in the planning and preparation at the museum, says the successful return of the fund raising raffle last year, after being hosted some years before, prompted the decision to make it an annual event. And with more than 60 items available for raffle throughout the weekend, he adds, crowds are anticipated through Friday, Saturday and

Sunday as well. “It’ll be quite something to see all the trees lit up,” he says. With the help of the Christmas festival’s Artistic Director Debbie Cooney, the historical street scene has all the charms of an old time Christmas, Danford says. With three heaters strategically located along the sidewalks, there will be plenty of added warmth as well. “It shouldn’t be too bad in here,” Danford says of the temperature in the usually unheated building, “and there will be places to go and get warm.” Farmtown Park Manager Margaret Grotek says although the museum has been closed for the winter, there has been lots of activity there in the past few weeks. Dozens of artificial trees have been strung with lights and thematically decorated, boxes of toys and baskets of holiday items have been prepared along with other unique items and various displays in the facility’s popular streetscape building. And volunteers have also

refurbished and painted the Farmtown Park Express, a miniature train that will be used at future functions as well, that has been loaded with toys for the weekend. Each item available for raffle will have an accompanying box where tickets can be deposited. Throughout the fourday event that begins tonight, visitors can chose which draws to enter, with the final random selections scheduled

to begin Sunday at 2 p.m. The Starlite House Tour runs tonight from 4 p.m. 9 p.m. with Christmas at Farmtown Park continuing through Friday (noon - 9 p.m.), Saturday (10 a.m. - 6 p.m.) and Sunday from 10 a.m. Proceeds from the fundraiser will go towards the continued operation of Farmtown Park.

Young Pinnacle Players debut with The Velveteen Rabbit November 28 Events – Belleville - This year’s Christmas show at the Pinnacle Group shot: l to r...Chloe Adams, Madison Davis, (rear) Keziah Heinricks and Playhouse is breaking new ground with a cast and crew of 36 young Ellie Lindenberg. people between the ages of 11 and 18 in the magical production of The Velveteen Rabbit. The play is based on the classic children’s book by Margery Williams that follows the experiences of a stuffed rabbit that becomes real through the love of a child. Some very experienced Belleville Theatre Guild veterans are providing leadership for these young actors as they learn the ropes of all aspects of putting on a theatrical production including stage management, set painting, makeup, dancing and acting. Director Lise Lindenberg says, “This is one of the best groups I’ve has ever directed. With over a month still left of rehearsal time, The Velveteen Rabbit promises to deliver a very polished production. It’s going to be an excellent holiday season outing for the whole family.” These last few weeks will be extremely busy as choreographer AmyLynn Van Londersele helps the actors master their dance routines and costume director Angela MacPherson and her assistant Helen Lindenberg create the imaginative costumes required for the

cast of toys, tree spirits, live rabbits, and human characters. Siobhan Enright, the set designer, assisted by Perry Poupore will be leading the young back stage crew in the fine art of set painting and scene changes. Even the lighting designers, Art MacKay and Jim Alexander, have enlisted the help of some keen teenagers to help with lighting. The Velveteen Rabbit opens on Thursday, November 28th and runs Wednesday to Sunday until Saturday, December 14th. Evening performances will start at 7:30 p.m. and the two Sunday matinees are at 2 p.m. Ticket prices are $10 for students, $20 for adults and $18 for seniors. According to producer, Heather Muir , there will be one preview performance on Tuesday, November 26th at 7:30 pm for the bargain price of $5.

For the birds: recollections and rambles

Lifestyles - Fred Helleiner is hard to miss at Presqu’ile Provincial Park. His trademark rusty bicycle often can be found leaning against a tree somewhere, its owner nearby scanning the beaches for shorebirds, his spotting scope slung over his shoulder. If there is no snow on the ground, he will be wearing sandals. Fred is something of an icon at Presqu’ile since moving there 14 years ago, following his retirement from Trent University, as professor in the Department of Geography, a department which he founded. His weekly bird report is circulated to 2,000 or more subscribers to the Ontario Birds Bird Alert listserv and is also carried on the NatureStuff website. Needless to say, if it is a bird, and is in the park, Fred soon knows about it. With so many years of birding under his belt from the age of 12, it is appropriate that Fred should write a book on his hobby, from its “fledgling” beginnings when birdwatching was considered a namby pamby pursuit, favoured by elderly spinsters, retired teachers and school boys on a hike. His book, “For the Birds: Recollections and

Rambles”, is just that – a memoir on his life as a birder, looking back to some of those earlier days and the friendships he made with fellow birders, some of them renowned like Fred Bodsworth, Jim Baillie, Ron Scovell, and Jim Woodford, all of whom I had also met when I was a young birder. That he was able to extract his most memorable experiences and get them in a book of only 71 pages must have been a challenge. However, he tackled the job admirably, the result being a chronicle of his life as a birder. Fred admits that, despite his many years of birding, he does not keep a life list, preferring to concentrate his efforts closer to home, namely Presqu’ile Park. This did not prevent him however, from driving to Milford to see a black-bellied whistling duck from Texas, or a northern wheatear on Wolfe Island. His earlier trips as a teen birder in Toronto and Peterborough involved more effort, and he often depended on the generosity of others to take him birding somewhere. Long ago, he saw the advantage that a bicycle would have in furthering his efforts in finding new birds and he used it to access birding areas that

previously had been beyond reach. On one exhausting trip, he relates, he biked from Hamilton to Burlington with a cohort to see a western grebe that had been reported there. Of course, the bird failed to appear, but he had better luck on another trip to see an American Avocet. The entire book is sprinkled with similar anecdotes. A Frazier TV episode came to mind when he related a rite known as the snipe hunt. His perpetrators sadistically told him to sit quietly in the dusk surrounded by mosquitoes and wait patiently for the snipe to appear, which, of course, they never did. As a young gullible birder, his early life was riddled with similar experiences, all at his expense. Birdwatching was the target of ridicule when binoculars were stuffed under jackets to escape public view, and not the respected, popular pastime that it is today. I was also reminded of my own experiences as a field trip leader when birders will obediently follow me like sheep, even as I head for an outhouse. In his book, Fred commented that birding in earlier years in his birding circle was a male dominated hobby.

Finally permitting a female to join their group once in Toronto, she sought to become a “groupie” of one well known birder who was looking for a reported great gray owl and refused to give this birder the much needed opportunity to relieve himself behind a tree. Only one reliable field guide available then – Peterson’s (and Fred admits to having memorized it from cover to cover), sub-standard binoculars, and a general lack of acceptance to birding as a legitimate hobby, things have sure changed in recent years. Fred, in his closing chapter, The Next Generation, mentions a number of younger birders who have given him reason to look forward to the future of birding with optimism. He is understandably moved by the enthusiasm of many of the younger birders he sees entering the park, reminding him of the days when he, too, was starting out as teen birder. If I were to mention two of the birders who stand out that Fred remembers as very young birders who have gone on to do great things, they would be Ian Shanahan and Doug McRae, two of the most respected birders in Presqu’ile Park today.

Fred laments that some of these new birders will no longer be able to see bobwhites, nor access the shrinking number of public birding areas, as he did as a youth. However, species uncommon to him in his youth can now readily be found as they expand their range. “If anything I have said or done while interacting with young people will inspire them to develop the all consuming passion for birding that has so enriched my own life, then I will feel greatly satisfied.” “For the Birds: Recollections and Rambles”, by Fred Helleiner, is available at $20 at Out on a Limb in Brighton, and can be ordered directly from the author at 186 Bayshore Rd., Brighton, Ontario K0K 1H0 (add $2.50 for postage) All profits are being donated to the Friends of Presqu’ile’s 25th Anniversary Environmental Fund, which sponsors long-term projects like the eradication of invasive species.

They also arranged for safe shelter on behalf of the girl who had been held captive for 10 days before escaping. The Canadians bought “a winter’s worth of potatoes and carrots” for families who survive on what they can salvage at a landfill, and they took a group of university students to dinner and gave them supplies to help with their education. They also treated children in one orphanage to a fun night and took another group to a water park and restaurant. The sad lives Rutter regularly witnessed made for an “emotional” stay that still causes him to well up when discussing what he saw. But he also saw glimpses of hope that “they’re turning the corner,” although “it’s a daunting task.” The university students, for example, “are going to change the world,” he said, and there’s evidence of an “entrepreneurial spirit” taking hold. “They’re just wonderful people.” Rutter said if he had been asked a day after he got back home if he would ever return to Kyrygzstan, he would have answered never again and opt to send money instead.

News - Trent Hills – Helping the people of Kyrygzstan, who have so little, “was an incredible experience,” says Trent Hills Chief Administrative Officer Mike Rutter. “It really does change you in how you see the world.” For one, it gave him a renewed appreciation of how “lucky” he is to live where he does and “have the best job in the world,” but it also led him to ask: “Why are we so blessed?” He discovered during his 10 days in the central Asian country how few blessings are enjoyed by many of that impoverished country’s citizens. After the Soviet Union collapsed, people’s jobs disappeared as factories closed “and there was no social safety net,” Rutter said. “They work so hard trying to make ends meet.” But corruption is rampant and alcoholism is a big problem (“vodka is cheaper than water”), and there’s “just a hopeless feeling. “It’s a country that forgot God,” he said. “I hope our society never does that ... because I think it has devastating results.” Rutter encountered Third World-like conditions in Tokmok, the city where he stayed as a member of a team providing humanitarian aid to local residents. He came across “some disturbing stuff” while there in October, such as men with “emotional challenges” institutionalized, living in a stark, cold

DART team continues deployment to typhoon-ravaged Phillipines By Ross Lees

News - Disaster Assistance Response team (DART) members continued to deploy from 8 Wing Trenton last Wednesday night to help the typhoon-ravaged Phillipines. Destined to finally touch down in the city of Iloilo in the Phillipines, the CC-177 Globemaster III aircraft was loaded with Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) personnel and an assortment of equipment to help out with the

humanitarian operation, according to Major General Jim Ferron, Commanding Officer of the 1st Canadian Division based in Kingston, Ontario. “We need to get some engineering capability in there to start clearing away some of the rubble so that we can bring in some of our medical assets, so we’re bringing a group of engineers with a command and control capability to set those conditions we need to really get this job done,” he noted as the flight

was preparing for takeoff around 9 p.m. Wednesday night. Sixty CAF personnel from all across Canada were loaded on the aircraft with equipment and Maj. Gen. Ferron said Canadians can be proud of the response of their men and women in uniform who came forward to get this effort underway. He said the Canadian Armed Forces would continue to move personnel and equipment into the storm-damaged country to solidify the plan currently in place. “I recognize that you can never be fast enough for an operation like this, but we’re putting in place the mechanism so that we get in. We’re prepared and we’ll truly make a difference to the Phillipine people,” he told The Contact. The DART is a multidisciplinary military organization designed to deploy on short notice anywhere in the world in response to situations ranging from natural disasters to complex humanitarian emergencies. It is one component in Canada’s toolkit to respond to natural disasters abroad. The DART is equipped to conduct emergency relief operations for up to approximately 40 days to bridge the gap until national and international aid agencies can arrive to provide long-

Mobility of the DART is supported by the CC-177 Globemaster III, which helps provide everything from the rapid delivery of troops and cargo transport to oversized equipment anywhere in the world. Maj. Gen. Ferron, 8 Wing Commander Col. David Lothian, and 8 Wing Operations Officer, Lt.-Col. Christian Roy, were all at the tarmac and in the deploying aircraft to meet with the men and women in uniform responding to the crisis success. “They’re very motivated to get

going and I was just so proud of them as we put them on board,” Maj. Gen. Ferron stated. “There’s a medical crisis there and one of the areas we hope to make a difference is in the provision of fresh water, so we’re bringing in our reverse osmosis water purification units (ROWPU) to do some of that work with the engineers clearing the way and then (we will be) bringing a very focussed medical team in to start helping out in some of the areas that really need the help.” While onboard the aircraft to speak to the departing personnel, Maj. Gen. Ferron pointed to a large front-end loader and said, “That baby will make a big difference.”

Utrecht’s unique canals and wharf cellars

Taking a canal cruise in Utrecht.

Lifestyles - My fondest memory of my visit to Utrecht in the Netherlands is of its plethora of wharf cellars that are still found along its inner city canals. These intriguing structures were built back in the Middle Ages, when Utrecht was an important trade centre, and they provided great storage facilities right at water level. I discovered that these wharf cellars, with their pedestrian walkways, are unique to this Dutch city, and a series of staircases lead from these pedestrian quays up to the street level, providing the visitor with a two-level street system along the canals. I explored this unique area of Utrecht on foot and by boat and I was struck by both its practicality and its beauty. I saw many reminders of its bygone Middle Age era and even of earlier times (after all, a Roman fortress was built here as early as about 47 AD). I also saw many low bridges along these canals (including some swing bridges), parked boats (there’s a waiting list for ‘parking space’ along the canals), boat rentals (including pedal boats and canoes), bicycles (there are more bicycles than motor vehicles found in the inner core of the city), hidden gardens, and a great variety of architecture, both old and new. I even witnessed people carrying very heavy refrigerators, furniture, and supply items from the street level to the canal level, via the stairs! Most of the old wharf storage facilities have now been converted into boutiques, craft shops, bars and restaurants, so I just had to check out some of these for myself. It’s interesting to explore these ancient cellars and see how so many of them

have been redesigned and reused today. For example, I found that the Ouden City Castle, an ancient fortresslike house located right in the heart of the city, now has a brewery in its old wharf cellar. I even dined in one of these mediaeval cellars, now converted into a “Restaurant Humphreys”. I discovered just how enormous and dark some of these storage facilities actually were. I also found out first hand, just how much food was served here, for I could hardly believe the amount I was given and I couldn’t eat more than half of my portion! As I did my touring of Utrecht’s canals and wharf cellars, I also discovered many of its other incredible tourist attractions. For example, it would be almost impossible to miss the city’s Domtower, the highest church tower in the Netherlands, which soars above Cathedral Square. It’s possible to ascend its 465 steps for a fantastic view of the city. In addition to this landmark, I also visited the interior of St. Martin’s Church, which was hit by a freak tornado back in 1674, collapsing its nave which was never rebuilt. I also checked out Hoog Catharijne (one of Europe’s largest indoor shopping centres), Catharijne Convent The highest church tower in the Netherlands. (now a museum located in a beautiful mediaeval convent), Museum Speelklok (with its collection of Carlson Wagonlit/G. Stewart Travel Services musical instruments that is pleased to welcome play automatically), Centraal Museum (containing the world’s largest Rietveld TO OUR TEAM! collection, including the Sue has 35+ years in the industry and a wealth of travel Rietveld chair),the Rietveld knowledge to help you plan your dream vacation!

The “Trajectum Lumen”, a night light trail through the city centre, is another notto-be-missed highlight. This year marked the 300th anniversary of the “Treaty of Utrecht”, a global peace treaty that brought stability to Europe. It was signed here on Apr. 11, 1713, so a number of special events took place in Utrecht this year to celebrate this tercentenary, including the unveiling of a commemorative coin and special concerts, exhibitions and conferences.

Reality Check:

Sheila Wray Gregoire By Sheila Wray Gregoire

Lifestyles - I love to-do lists and organization planners. I have Excel spreadsheets for household chores and the business tasks I need to complete on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. On good days, when I don’t hit the snooze button, I actually get most of those things done. There’s only one problem. I have no margins in my life. If I’m super organized and super energetic, it is possible to keep my house clean and to get all my work done and, hopefully, to head to the grocery store before we’re stuck discovering that all we have in the cupboards are tins of cranberry sauce and tuna. But if an emergency comes up,

Is being a double income family worth the stress? I’m in trouble. My husband works more than fulltime, and my writing and speaking require my full-time attention and too much travel. Because I write primarily on marriage, it’s also really hard to neglect mine, or that “hypocrite” word might get tossed around. And with my oldest now flown the coop, I’m trying to spend as much time as I can with my youngest before she leaves, too. Life is simply busy. Pretty much everyone feels that way. But I think one of the biggest sources of stress isn’t the amount of work on our plate; it’s that nagging feeling that one more straw is going to cause the whole thing to come crashing down. We used to have some buffer in our

lives. At one time women were home to bring dinners to friends in the hospital, or to take parents to doctors’ appointments, or to care for a sister’s child if said sister caught a disgusting intestinal bug. Today few of us have people we can rely on. And what’s perhaps even worse is that we aren’t able to be there for those that we love, either. When my cousin had a baby recently and needed help, I wasn’t in the position to go. What kind of life are we leading if we don’t have the room to be there for those that we love? Yet my problem doesn’t stop there. What if, in all of our chaos of making more money, we’re actually missing out on a “good life”? A “good life” has to involve little touches of creativity and

The Good Earth: By Dan Clost

Lifestyles - O&S#1 Leaves: I know I tend to run on about this but it does surprise me to see so many bags of leaves sitting on the curb. Fortunately, they’ll go to a municipal compost pile where the black gold (carbon) can be returned to this good earth. Next spring, that carbon needs to be replaced and folks run out to garden centres and

nurseries to buy fertiliser, compost and other stuff (sounds good on the late night infomercials). Time has been spent, money has been spent, and unnecessary resources (e.g. the plastic bags holding the compost) have been used all to replace something they threw out a few short months ago. As it happens, I do toil away at a garden centre and will cer-

beauty: that home-cooked meal instead of the barbecued chicken we picked up on the way home; those refinished dressers instead of the Ikea assemble-yourself plywood; the crocheted baby afghans. One of the things I miss most lately is the joy of friends coming for dinner, an event which is quite difficult if you’re never home to cook dinner, let alone to clear a path to the dining room table. My business started off extremely part time, but it has mushroomed, for which I am grateful. My husband is doing well at his job, for which I am proud. Yet I am not certain that this is the life I want. If I have no room for emergencies, and little room for beauty and hospitality and fun, then what is the point?

Time to get ready for winter tainly not turn away sales. But, I would rather fill my corporate master’s coffers with coins proffered for other reasons. O&S#2 Impatiens and Downy Mildew: It will be very interesting to see what happens next spring; I confess that I haven’t got a clue as to how the markets will respond. There is no doubt that this was likely the last year for us to have complete confidence that our Impatiens walleriana is disease free. There will be some suppliers with clean stock, I’m sure, but all of the gardening gurus and growers magazines are advising that we select alternatives. Fortunately, this is an annual plant so the growers can quickly respond to the expected changes. We gardeners will have many new choices next spring which can give us some pleasant hours “designing” our new flower beds. O&S#3 Emerald Ash Borer: There are lots and lots of material available about this little critter. It will have a devastating impact on our ash trees, which is the most prevalent deciduous tree species in the province. That means we need to select other trees for our landscapes. There are many choices available, including native species such as Celtis occidentalis, Hackberry, but I advise you to gen up on their bio’s. Hackberry is probably the closest in terms of form and function but it will require more attention towards formative pruning. O&S#4 Christmas trees: A pet peeve here, I sell Christmas trees, not Happy Festive Holiday Feel Good Today trees. The trees are arriving in outlets across our area and, judging by the ones at our store, they are looking very good this year.

The dual income family is now the norm, and that won’t change. Certainly we could all lower our expectations and work less. The reduction in stress is likely worth the reduction in income. Yet that is not always easy to do. And in the meantime, there is no one left to “keep the home fires burning”. We women felt undervalued when we were “just housewives”, but gradually, as most women work, more and more of us are realizing just how valuable having someone at home was. That spouse didn’t just care for the kids and do the housework; that spouse gave you that buffer, that margin, that made life liveable. I can’t give up a business I’ve spent years creating, but in the meantime, I could really use a wife.

triggering frost to switch it over to dormant mode, is the first species cut. I got that from our contact with Somerville Nurseries, aka Kris Kringle Christmas Trees; the things you learn, eh? It is far too early to bring a tree indoors and expect it to last the entire season; but, it is not too early to buy one. Pick the one you like and keep it outdoors, out of the wind. Don’t cut the bottom. It will be fine when you are ready to bring it indoors. O&S#5 Winter mulch: this is a task that too few of us do correctly. Winter mulch is used to keep the cold in. So, don’t apply it until there is some cold in the ground: an added benefit of waiting is that all of the critters who might nestle down close to a winter food supply will have moved on looking for warmer digs. . That doesn’t mean you have to wait until there’s an

inch of frost but it does mean that the surface should be crispy. You can have a pile of dry leaves waiting to place on top of semi hardy shrubs such as Zone 6 hydrangeas, butterfly bush and garden mums. If you’ve pruned up junipers or other conifers, place the boughs around the bottoms of rhododendrons, kalmia, pieris etc., the shallow-rooted really expensive specimens in your beds. O&S#6 Remembrance Day column: Thank you for all of your comments on last week’s column. I would like the veterans and serving members to know that responses to that column indicate a deep undercurrent of pride and gratefulness on the part of Canadians. I think it’s sort of like hockey, moose, and maple syrup-imbedded within our national psyche to the extent that it is part of us.

First Walk for Memories in Trenton

By Kate Everson

Quinte West – News - This year, for the first time, the Alzheimer Society is organizing a Walk for Memories in Trenton. “The event will be on Sunday, January 19, 2014,” says Hannah Brown, Fund Development Coordinator. Walk for Memories is a fundraising event and an opportunity for people in the community to come together in support of local individuals and families living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. “Hosting this event in Trenton will give us a unique opportunity to recognize the Alzheimer’s disease support communities that have developed in Quinte West and Brighton,” Brown says. This event will provide an excellent opportunity to increase awareness around the many programs and services available to people in these communities. “The number of people

we serve in Quinte West and Brighton has doubled over the past year,” Brown notes. “As an area where a large portion of the population is seniors we expect that number to continue growing.” With less than 24 per cent of the organization’s annual budget funded by the government, it relies on the money raised at events such as Walk for Memories. These funds provide critical programs and services to individuals and families in the community. “January is Alzheimer Month and we would like to partner with you to help us advocate the need for greater education and support in the community for people living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias,” Browns says. The Alzheimer Society of Belleville-Hastings-Quinte is located in the Bay View Mall at 470 Dundas St. W. in Belleville. Call 613-962-0892 or go to alzheimersocietyofbhq. com for information.

Wealth of history explored that attracts over three million visitors a year as a prime example of what kind of potential historical events can have on a community’s economy. “I think there’s a real appetite for this, otherwise you wouldn’t have the history channel,” Lockyer said. “They exist as businesses because there’s a business in history. “We have the history as a dormant resource, why don’t we tell these stories to the world.” The 2013 series premieres tonight at the Empire Theatre at 7 p.m. and tickets are $10 at the door. For more information on the History Moments Series, visit their website at www.historyliveshere.ca.

Santa Claus is coming to Deseronto Events - Deseronto’s Santa Claus parade takes place this Saturday, November 23rd at 6:30 p.m. View the parade route at www.deseronto.ca. Don’t miss the Town Tree lighting ceremony, Christmas carols, visits with Santa and complimentary refreshments following the parade in Rathbun Park. Deseronto Food Bank donations of non-perishable food items will be collected along the parade route by Deseronto Public School students; the generosity of spectators is greatly appreciated. The assistance of volunteers is needed for the collection of donations. Join in the fun and enter a float! Registration forms are available at www.deseronto.ca or contact the town hall at 613-396-2440, dvalentyne@deseronto.ca for float or volunteer inquiries.

The 2013 History Moments Series explores local history through short video vignettes detailing significant moments and people. This photo from the Community Archives of Belleville and Hastings County shows a parade in Belleville in 1899 for the arrival of the Governor General. Photo: Submitted Belleville - News - History comes alive tonight in Belleville when the 2013 History Moments Series hits the big screen at the Empire Theatre beginning at 7 p.m., and producer Peter Lockyer said he has big ideas about what the future could hold for historybased tourism in the region. “I would like to see us get into the history business,” Lockyer, a former CBC Radio and Television broadcaster said. “There are many communities in the world that make money out of their history... to me, we could do this here.” Tonight, the History Moments Series will explore just a small piece of the vast history surrounding the region, through a series of short, 2-minute video vignettes. After the premiere, the videos will be distributed for play at local theatres, on TV Cogeco, CKWS Television in Kingston and to local schools, archives and libraries, all in the interest of promoting local history. Some of the 2013 series highlights include segments on Belleville’s Mackenzie Bowell, the fifth prime minister of Canada, Belleville doctor James Bertram Collip’s contributions to the discovery of insulin and the history of the venerable Belleville Club. “Not everybody in the series made headlines or won awards,” Lockyer said. “We have stories of ordinary people who lived quiet, decent hardworking lives like most of us, but they did something extraordinary.” While the series is now entering its fifth

year, Lockyer explained that an annual production wasn’t always the plan. After returning to his hometown of Picton around the year 2000, Lockyer said he had taken on an interest of his father’s, which was to restore and maintain a local cemetery. After learning more about the project, Lockyer said he began to think the cemetery had some assets that were not being fully utilized, most notably a glut of history chronicling scores of individuals who made a meaningful impact on the history of the region. After a fundraising campaign to restore the cemetery far exceeded his expectations by raising over $90,000, walking tours and a lecture series were

quick to follow. In 2009, the 225th anniversary of Loyalist settlement in Prince Edward County, Lockyer created the first History Moments Series. “[We said] we’ll just do it once, to celebrate Loyalist settlement,” Lockyer laughed, reflecting on the start of the series. “It really registered with people...I’m not trying to tell you the whole story, because I want you to go to the museums and get the rest of the story yourself, but I am trying to engage you in the local history that is all around us.” Looking ahead to the future, Lockyer said the potential utilization of local history as a resource was huge. Lockyer pointed to Gettysburg, a small town of just over 7,000

Seniors must be vigilant

By Bill Freeman

Hastings – News - Fraudsters and scam artists target seniors because of their trusting nature and that’s why vigilance should be the number one defence against confidence tricksters, police say. “They target seniors because of your trusting nature,” Northumberland OPP Const. Karen German said during a fraud presentation at the Hastings Civic Centre last week. The presentation, which drew a large crowd, was hosted by the Trent Hills Community Policing Committee. The presentation was timely given the wave of “grandparent scam” attempts and the fact that Trent Hills residents have been victims. Const. German and Const. Steve Bates cited some of the more popular scams but reminded guests that they The Trent Hills Community Policing Committee hosted a well-attended anti-fraud presentation in Hastings last week, which were “just touching on a few of them” was presented by the Northumberland OPP.

January Start Open House Join us for these two events on

Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre lists at least 30 different types of frauds and scams. While seniors are a large target group, there is “no typical victim,” Const. German said. Anyone can be deceived. “They will go where the money is. They want your money. If they take from you once they will go after you again.” The officers talked about frequently used scams including computer repairs, home repairs, the big prizelottery scam, advance fee letter fraud and cheque overpayment fraud. The grandparent or emergency scam is the one that is often used, the two officers said. They’ve both seen examples in Trent Hills. “I deal a lot with emergency scams,” Const. German said. “It plays on a person’s sympathies and emotions.” “Grandparent scams are top of the list for frauds on seniors,” Const. Bates agreed. In the “grandparent scam” the scammer attempts to convince the victim that a loved one is hurt or in trouble and needs immediate financial assistance to remedy or improve the situation. The callers usually have no information about the loved one and use a series of leading questions to fill in the blanks while preying on the victim’s sense of concern. “Calm yourself down” when you get a call like that,” Const. Gorman said. “Ask personal questions only a (loved one) would know.” If they can’t answer those questions accurately hang up the phone and call the police,

she said. “The phone is a very frequent way to get information from seniors,” Const. Bates said, noting that an 86-yearold Hastings resident was a recent target with the caller asking increasingly personal questions in an effort to squeeze him for information. Always guard your personal information, they stressed. “He called the OPP which is the right thing to do,” Const. Bates said. “If you don’t know the person or recognize the number that should be a red flag immediately. “If you don’t know the number why would you waste the time talking?” Seniors who use computers should be equally vigilant, they added. Policing Committee chair Lilian Adams said the presentation was very informative. “It was very important because of the seniors around here,” Adams said. “I get those calls all the time; it makes you nervous.” Adams said she was victimized a couple of years ago and sent money in response to a call. “I am guilty. You’re naïve and as you get older it’s so easy to be taken.” Adams said information is power and the more people learn about frauds the safer they will be. “I think these presentations are terrific, especially in a small town.” Seniors should not be embarrassed to call police. “Don’t be afraid to call us,” said Const. Gorman.

Anti-submarine boats travelled Trent-Severn to engage German U-boats in Second World War

By John Campbell

largest navy in the world, with 378 ships. The Fairmile was the second-most common, behind the corvette. Hunter Boats was one of five boatyards in Ontario chosen to build the motor launches using prefabricated kits. At 112 feet in length, they were short enough to fit inside the locks between Orillia and Trenton (they couldn’t head north to Georgian Bay, which was closer, because they were too long for the marine railway at Big Chute). Among the many photos Brunger included in his presentation were a few showing the Fairmiles docked in Campbellford, taken by Frank Linton, who later served as mayor of the town. Brunger said there are no records of a Fairmile ever having destroyed a U-boat with its depth charges, but by 1943 the German submarines were on the defen-

sive and the motor launches “had a role in patrolling, which must have been effective, so it was a good idea to build them.” After the war, “the government was so anxious to get cash and to reduce the navy because it didn’t need 300-odd ships, it sold them for fire sale prices,” Brunger said. Fairmiles were sold for just $3,500, even though they had cost $70,000 to build. On a separate note, Probus Club president Bill Hogle announced that the newly formed group had set a cap on membership at 150 people, which was reached during the meeting held Nov. 13 at St. John’s United Church auditorium. Anyone interested in joining will be put on waiting list Alan Brunger chats with Trent Hills Probus Club vice-president Art Linton before giving a talk on antibut must have a sponsor to become a submarine boats that travelled on the Trent-Severn Waterway during the Second World War en route to the Battle of the St. Lawrence.

Campbellford – Warships made their way along the Trent-Severn Waterway more than 70 years ago to do battle with the dreaded German U-boats during the Second World War, members and guests of the Trent Hills Probus Club learned during a presentation last week. “There was a real problem with submarine activity (which came to be) called the Battle of the St. Lawrence because so many of the sinkings were actually in Canadian territory,” Alan Brunger, a retired Trent University professor, told the club. He’s written about this little-known chapter of Canadian military history in a paper, Warships in the Waterway that was published by the Peterborough Historical Society and released just before Remembrance Day. It tells the story of seven Fairmile anti-submarine motor launches built in Orillia by Hunter Boats Ltd. from 1941 to 1944. The only way they could reach the wartime theatre of activity in the Atlantic Ocean from a shipyard on Lake Couchiching was via the Trent-Severn to Lake Ontario, which took them past Campbellford in their four-day journey southward. Canada “was crucial in supplying Britain with all sorts of food, armaments (and) materials” but the ships were favourite targets of U-boats, which sank many of them in the St. Lawrence estuary and beyond, Brunger said. It got so bad – a ferry was torpedoed in 1942 killing more than 140 civilians – that “there was terrific pressure on the government to issue these contracts to build all sorts of ships” in response to the German threat, Brunger said. At the start of the war, the Royal Canadian Navy only had 13 ships, but by 1945 it had grown to become the fourth

Batawa Ski Hill is making snow earlier than ever before

By Kate Everson

News - The Batawa Ski Hill’s new Operations Manager, Danny MacDuffie, says, “It is plain and simple, cold means snow.” And with the first real cold snap of the season, Batawa Ski Hill is making snow earlier than ever before. At 11:15 p.m. on Monday November 11, 2013 the snow guns fired up and made snow until mid-day on Tuesday. “We will fire the guns up again tonight

and probably Wednesday night as well,” said MacDuffie. There will not be enough snow to open, but making snow at every opportunity will mean that the hill should be open for it planned grand opening on December 14. “The goal is to have most, if not all, of the hill open before Christmas so that families will have a great place to play through the holidays,” said General Manager Andrew Rusynyk. “I

am so happy to have MacDuffie and his Outside Operations crew here this year. The hill is as ready as it has ever been to open for the winter fun season.” MacDuffie came to Batawa Ski Hill in late of August and brings over 25 years of Ski Resort Operations Management in Ontario. He is a Certified Lift Mechanic as well as a millwright, diesel mechanic and a welder who has built high rises and factories, in addition to making snow

and getting people to the top of ski hills. Raised on a farm outside Collingwood, the ski industry was a way of life as his father, Russell MacDuffie, worked for the Welder family developing Blue Mountain back in the 60s, 70s and 80s. “I started working at Blue Mountain at 13 years old in operations, lifts, maintenance and whatever else they would let me do. After high school I left to work as a welder and fitter at the shipyards for four years.” Then after a stretch out west and working in the trades for a few years, he realized that something was missing. It was the ski industry. He got back into the ski biz with a job at Craiglieth Ski Club as the Maintenance Manager. In his 11 years at the Craigleith he was the first non-member to receive the President’s Award. His work within the ski industry has also taken him to other resorts like Talisman, Cedar Highlands, Calabogie Peaks and Pine Ridge Ski Club. “I have enjoyed building small ski hills into larger four season venues,” says MacDuffie. In 1979, he met his wife Susan. They have three children that come to visit Batawa frequently. When he came across the Outside Operations job at Batawa Ski Hill, he thought this would be a great place to finish out his career in the ski business. “So far my wife and I love it. It is a very special

community and living right in Batawa has been awesome,” laughs MacDuffie. “This whole area is so friendly that it sometimes seems unreal in comparison to what we have seen in the past.” The new team at Batawa Ski Hill shares MacDuffie’s belief that it’s important to take the guests’ fun seriously. “I am happy to be part of this great new team that Heather Candler, Batawa General Manager, has assembled. I’m really excited for this season to get started,” notes MacDuffie. Working with a team of great people, combined with the new investments in hill night lighting, chalet renovations and other hill improvements, have made this an exciting year to join the ski hill team. And the dropping temperatures bode well for a great winter. The Ski Hill is now in its last month of season pass discount sales. Beginning December 2 the full season pass rates kick in so community members are encouraged to get their passes before the end of November. Registrations have begun for the ski and snowboard lessons beginning over the Christmas holidays. For more information or to book lessons, contact 613-398-6568 or admin@ batawaskihill.com.

IN MEMORIAM

In Memory

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone. A part of us went with you, the day God took you home. If tears could build a stairway, and heartaches make a lane, we’d walk our way to heaven, and bring you back again. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still, in our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill.
