Cornwall a leader on accessibility front Todd Lihou todd.lihou@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - From the hallways of the flagship Benson Centre to new play structures in community parks, the City of Cornwall is showing a commitment to making things accessible to all residents. It’s been 10 years since the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) came into effect, and in that time, the city has made tremendous gains on accessibility. “We have become known as one of the leaders in the province on accessibility issues,” said Manon Levesque, deputy city clerk and

accessibility advisor. “We took a pro-active approach many years ago and it is starting to pay dividends. The results are becoming more apparent and we continue to make strides every year.” The city has an accessibility plan which sets out a goal of achieving an accessible and barrierfree community by 2025. To help achieve that goal, the city relies in part on the Municipal Accessibility Advisory Committee (MAAC). This volunteer group of residents advises council on accessibility matters and provides annual updates on Cornwall’s progress in becoming barrier-free. On Thursday MAAC took things a step further by organizing a tour to showcase the accessibility features in place at a number of public facilities and parks in Cornwall. City officials, MAAC members and other community leaders got to see and hear about the accessibility features in place at the Aquatic Centre, Benson Centre, Cornwall Public Library, Cornwall Transit and numerous parks. Tour participants got to see a whole slate of features that add to Cornwall’s reputation as an accessible community. This includes ramped

offerings at the Library, to name just a few. Tour participants were transported by Cornwall Transit, which proudly offers a Handi-Transit service. Some other highlights of the city’s accessibility efforts include: - 13 city parks now have splashpads and/or accessible playground equipment, with plans to add more in future years. - Eight city intersections are now equipped with audible pedestrian signals - Accessible signage has been installed in municipal buildings - Free parking is provided to motorists displaying an accessible parking pass (this includes on-street parking and in city-owned parking lots) - Making information more accessible through improvements to the city website, including the development of a mobile version for mobile devices such as phones and tablets “Thanks to work of MAAC and the support of city council, we really have come a long way in removing barriers in our community,” said Levesque.

CORNWALL, Ontario – City hall is looking at putting together a task force to help with the resettlement of Syrian refugees. Councillors issued orders to administration Monday night to look at the specifics of how the city can help when it comes to an influx of what could be hundreds of refugees who will presumably stay at the Nav Centre in Cornwall. While nothing has been announced by the federal government concerning a plan to resettle refugees in Cornwall, council voted to get ready anyway. “I know the question of Syrian refugees has been on our minds a lot. Although we have not been officially notified of what exactly the government’s intention will be, it is clear our community will be called upon,”said Coun. Bernadette Clement. “I believe that it’s time for the city to set up a committee. I know our managers have been listening to issues. We have to show we have a group together…to assist in any way.” But there were some questions about why this move would be done now, before the federal government makes its Tuesday announcement on its plan to relocate 25,000 refugees to Canada. “I’m just worried about putting the cart before the horse. We’re getting ready to do what?” said Coun. David Murphy. “We don’t

know what needs will have to be filled.” Mayor Leslie O’Shaughnessy weighed in further. “The City of Cornwall has been asked to do nothing,” he said. “The logistics are going to be nightmare…but I wish them the best of luck in doing this flawlessly.” EMS chief Myles Cassidy said any refugees relocated to Cornwall would likely be on an interim basis. “There are a number of phases to this operation,” he said. “And, a place like the Nav Centre could be termed an interim lodging centre. The key there is interim. While those people are in the community, there may be an impact on health and regular health services as any other bump in population might provide.” Coun. Andre Rivette suggested the former general hospital should be used to help with any health care issues the refugees might present. “If we start backlogging our hospitals, we have a problem,” he said, suggesting the emergency room in Cornwall is busy enough as it is. “Whoever they give it to, they should be getting an area of the general hospital. “It’s not saying we don’t want to treat them… let’s just make sure the community doesn’t suffer.” Council will learn what kind of shape the task force will take at its Dec. 14 meeting.

Council approves move to study new development charges CORNWALL, Ontario – City taxpayers will be on the hook for more than $50,000 to pay for a consultant to study whether Cornwall starts to include development charges for future building within city limits. Council voted Monday night to greenlight a $60,000 study from Watson and Associates to determine whether city hall

Denis Carr, who suggested city administrators should create the report – and save about $54,000 in consultant fees. “On four occasions we have discussed this…and had reports from administration,”

said Carr. “Surely by now administration knows more ab out development charges than Watson and associates. “I have great confidence they will come up with a great report.” But council agreed with Coun. Elaine MacDonald’s suggestion that over time the face of administration has changed via retirements and the like. The report is expected to be completed in the weeks and months ahead.

junior farm team of the Ottawa Rough Riders, that existed for three seasons leading up to 1968, playing in the Canadian Inter-Provincial Junior Football League. Former Cornwall mayor Ed Lumley was coach of the club (known as the Chargers in 1966, and the Mustangs in subsequent seasons). “Mike was the salt of the earth,” recalled Lumley. “Mike was always very appreciative of that footbal team.” His musical exploits included decades as a drummer and singer. Heenan’s son Kelly recalls a Christmas when he was struggling to find a gift for his father. “There was a 45 that one of my dad’s bands had released,” recalled Kelly. The song was ‘Slipper Lily.’ “How many kids can say their dad released a record?” said Kelly, who hit upon re-recording the song and presenting it to Michael as a gift. “I was in a band, and we decided to record the

Michael Heenan. song. We kind of modernized it.” Heenan is also survived by his wife Linda, and children Robin Heenan-Mikkelsen, Casey and Lindsay. Plans were being completed to hold a navy club event to celebrate Heenan’s life.

CORNWALL, Ontario - Not unlike the keel of a ship, Michael Heenan was the backbone of the Cornwall and District Navy Veterans Association, helping to rescue that agency from financial ruin decades ago. The former football lineman that played for the Cornwall Charges/Mustangs junior team in the 1960s, was also a force on the local music scene as a drummer for rock bands of many stripes. He passed away Thursday following a short battle with cancer at the age of 69. Heenan worked for years at Domtar in Cornwall, but music, football and his beloved navy club were areas where he will be remembered. “The navy club wouldn’t exist today if it wasn’t for Mike and all his hard work,” said a grief-stricken Diane Riley, president of the club,

who tearfully recounted her time with Heenan. “I’m kind of emotional. He’s been the driving force behind the navy club.” Heenan’s leadership as a longtime president of the club and manager of its Sixth Street building helped to bring it back from the edge of financial peril decades ago. He stayed on as president of the club until 2014, and only retired this spring from his duties as manager. “He was still very active with the club,” said Riley. “He still did our newsletter. And he was a shoulder for me to lean on.” Heenan also dabbled in social media, regularly updating a popular Facebook page with snippets of Cornwall history, including photographs. Just this year Heenan was a big part of a Cornwall Chargers/Mustangs football reunion held, of course, at the navy club. The Cornwall Chargers/Mustangs were a

CORNWALL, Ontario - Cornwall and area paramedics are banding together to help raise money for local children. The paramedics have created the ‘Wish Upon a Medic’ foundation to raise money for local sick and injured children. The foundation’s first project is to sell Christmas trees in advance of the holidays. The sale of the trees - white spruces - will be done Dec. 5 and with only a limited number in supply, orders are being taken right now. Last year paramedics raised funds for some

young cancer patients and decided to take it up a notch this year. “We decided to expand it and created an incorporated foundation for charity,” said paramedic Tim Hartle. All the proceeds from the sale of the $40 trees will go towards helping area youth. The locally-grown trees will be between five and eight feet tall. Paramedic Sophie Tasse said the foundation plans to do fundraising events throughout the year. To order a tree send an email to wishuponamedic@gmail.com.

Frustrated tenants forced to deal with Alice Street fire CORNWALL, Ontario – Smoke billowed from an apartment complex fire Monday afternoon on Alice Street in Cornwall. Witnesses said it did not appear as though anyone was injured in the fire, though tenants in the apartment were clearly frustrated with what they felt was a lack of information flowing from firefighters and police at the scene. One man, who did not provide his name but said he lived in one of the apartments, said fire and police “were very rude” with him when he was seeking answers from them. It should be noted that firefighters were still

working at the time to clear the building of thick, acrid smoke – the smell of which permeated the neighbourhood. “I build roofs and I was working on one at the corner of Louisa and First and someone yelled to me that my place was on fire,” continued the man. “I have three cats and some fish. I don’t know what is going on with them. “A lot of us in this building have animals.” The man was cut short by firefighters who advised him and another man to move away from the building. The men were standing at the front door to one of the apartments. “If you guys would move across the street it would make our jobs a lot easier,” one of the fire-

Many neighbours could be found on the street, or their front porches (wrapped in blankets) to take in the spectacle that occurred in the 200-block of Alice Street. “At first we heard the fire trucks, and when we came out there was smoke coming from the eavestrough on the top,” said neighbour Justin

Rainey, who added it appeared as though the fire actually started on a lower level. It’s unclear what caused the fire, or how many people lived in the apartment building. While the flames were extinguished, firefighters were still working at sundown to clear the building of smoke, with large fans set up at the front doorway.

Coat drive in full gear Adam Brazeau adam.brazeau@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - As cold weather draws closer and temperatures start to drop, the third annual ‘One Warm Coat’ drive is ready to heat things up. Doctors Joel Leger and Kylie Draper of Cornwall Spine Care Plus+ are continuing a heartwarming initiative to help the city’s underprivileged stay protected from the wintery weather. Residents are being asked to donate new or gently used winter coats and accessories. Aside from winter gear, monetary donations are also accepted. All funds and jackets raised during the campaign will go directly to the Salvation Army in Cornwall. “Pastor Oren Cole is already in touch with area families in need, so they have places to go before

we even get them,” said Leger. The local business was able to collect over 60 in 2013, and 110 in 2014, not including mittens and toques. Draper’s hoping this year’s haul will be their biggest yet. It all started to help local families who are forced to make financial decisions between purchasing clothing for the upcoming months and food for the holiday season. “At Spine Care+, our primary goal is to guide and educate this community on all facets related to health and optimal physical function,” said Leger. If you’re interested in donating, visit Cornwall Spine Care+ at 117 Eleventh Street West, between 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Call 613-938-1000 or visit online at www.spinecareplus.ca or www.facebook.com/CornwallSpineCarePlus.

NOTICE REGARDING WINTER MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES

Please be advised that the parking of a vehicle on the roadway interfering with winter maintenance activities is an infraction of Section 170. (1) of the Highway Traffic Act, “no person shall park, stand, or stop a vehicle on a roadway”, and (12) “despite the other provisions of this section, no person shall park or stand a vehicle on a highway in such a manner as to interfere with the movement of traffic or the clearing of snow from the highway”, R.S.O. 1990, c.H.8., s.170 (12) and prevents the Township Road Department from performing the plowing and de-icing operations in an efficient and safe manner. Please be advised that the practice of depositing snow or ice on a roadway is hazardous and is an infraction noted in Section 181, “no person shall deposit snow or ice on a roadway without permission in writing so to do from the Ministry or the road authority responsible for the maintenance of the road”, R.S.O. 1990, c.H.8, s.181 of the Highway Traffic Act. Thank you for your cooperation in these matters.

HOLIDAY FIRE SAFETY

Did you know? Fire deaths traditionally rise over the holiday season. Stay safe throughout the holidays with these tips: • When buying a fresh tree, keep the base of the trunk in water at all times. • Check lights before putting them on the tree – discard any old or damaged sets • Stay in the kitchen when cooking – unattended cooking is the leading cause of kitchen fires • Keep candles in a sturdy holder away from children, pets, combustible materials and your tree • Alcohol and fire are a dangerous mix – keep a close eye on anyone attempting to cook or smoke while under the influence of alcohol • Encourage smokers to smoke outside. Check for cigarette butts between sofa and chair cushions before bed • Install smoke alarms on every storey and outside sleeping areas. Test them monthly and change the batteries at least once per year.

SD and G Highlanders deserve better of us Todd Lihou todd.lihou@tc.tc

This weekend there will be a celebration in Cornwall, but there’s a good chance it’s flying under the radar in many circles, as everyone gears up for Christmas. The SD and G Highlanders will hold their annual celebration at the Cornwall Armoury – the regimental dinner - complete with kilts, tradition and more than a few nods to the past. The Highlanders, or Glengarrians as they are more colloquially known (Glens, in some circles), have been an institution in Cornwall for generations. The famed unit can trace its origins all the way back to the militias of the War of 1812. Today the regiment belongs to 33 Canadian Brigade Group, part of the Canadian Forces Primary Reserve. Its job is a simple one: to close with and destroy the enemy. In other words, when heavy lifting is involved it is units like the Glens that get the call. We’re lucky to have them. Not because Canada (or SD and G for that matter) is in danger of invasion, but because the traditions and leadership the unit has instilled within itself have been poured into the young men and women who wear Canadian Forces uniforms with pride. Those same individuals have “real” jobs during the week, and despite the fact that they trade in

camouflaged army fatigues for suits, ties or coveralls they still carry with them the discipline of the military…even when they’re not at the armoury. I have met, on and off, with several of the commanding officers of the regiment. My boot camp began during Ice Storm‘98 when Sandy Robertson was the boss – a no-nonsense man who enjoyed the respect of troopers who were tasked with cleaning up the community as trees and branches were falling. Later I met regularly with Rob Duda, a lanky individual whose ability to shout orders (while maintaining an air of respect) beguiled his softspoken nature. For now it is Steve Young, who I last heard was deployed to Haiti to help maintain the security of that country whilst it completes democratic elections. He is due to retire soon, which means another soldier will one day soon command the local unit. There are also hundreds of other nameless, faceless rank-and-file soldiers who make up the Glens that are quick to offer a smile, and a “sir”, when I visit the armoury for one story or another. In spite of its monolithic appearance, the armoury is actually a pretty fun place, often filled with people who are more “family” than “military.” Maybe that’s part of why the Highlanders are making a concerted effort to rebrand themselves. “Citizen soldiers” is a term you should expect to

hear more of, as the unit approaches its 150th anniversary in 2018. While just below the surface the Glens have always been a pillar of the community, publicly the regiment has suffered through a bit of an identity crisis. Gone are the days when teenaged boys (and later girls) joined cadets corps in droves. Consequently the number of young people enlisting in the army has also dropped. This, coupled with the bureaucracy that permeates the Canadian Forces nationally has translated into some would-be recruits waiting months (sometimes more than a year) to learn if they have been

LETTERS Last week’s editorial was a complete miss: reader

Editor: “We have the room......We have the jobs.... We have the heart....” Please notice the situation in Europe before pontificating about “fear mongering”. The Paris massacre was masterminded by a Jihadi passing as a ‘refugee.’ There are experts who claim

that up to 20% of ‘refugees’ in Europe are linked to ISIS. There are states in the US, many states, that are NOT taking in any of these invaders. Surely we can learn a lesson from these quarters so as not to repeat their mistakes. Your suggestion of accepting thousands of unscreened people into Canada is nothing

accepted into the army, which hasn’t helped either. As a consequence, the Highlanders have slipped – just a bit – below the radar. This shouldn’t be. Too many young men from wars decades ago, and others from battles fought most recently, have given too much for the Glens to be an afterthought in this community. We should all welcome the SD and G Highlanders back to the forefront in this region. There has always been a place at the table for men and women of honour…even if the chair has gotten just a bit cold.

short of lunacy! Even if we do screen them what do we need polygamy and 5.6 children per child bearing female for? Our welfare system will suffer damage or breakdown break down under this system just as it has in Denmark, UK, Germany, Greece etc. etc. Your short article in OPINION (Seaway News Nov 19

2015) is irresponsible and naive. Yes, “We have the room......We have the jobs....We have the heart....” But you at least don’t have the brains to look at the refugee problem dispassionately and logically with Canada’s better interests at heart. A.S. Fox , Glen Roy

whatever the household could afford to give. Our religions were different, our backgrounds and language were different, and our caring hearts were the same. I so welcome the influx of new people into the Cornwall and the SD&G area. We will all be the better for it.

I am now a retired senior on a pension, so I cannot help financially to settle a Syrian family, but can I help in other ways? I, too, know what it is like to be a stranger in a strange land. Lorna Klassen Martintown, Ontario

Editor: I almost wept when I read last week’s editorial. I am somewhat new to the area, and I find many folks here have had little contact with those from more foreign lands. I have travelled

a lot over the years: mostly Europe, the Caribbean and Mexico, and to North Africa. I have been welcomed everywhere. But the most heart-warming welcomes I ever had were in the homes of families during my travels in North Africa. I was treated like gold, and given

Just before opening night the band’s drummer took ill. The call for a replacement was put through to the guild in Cornwall. Big Mike answered the call and played a two-weekend stint with one of the hottest rock bands in the U.S. ***** Anybody who has gone to the crowded Cornwall Community Hospital emergency room with a non-life threatening ailment knows that the wait time can be anywhere from three to seven hours. But there is a city hospital, actually two, where the wait time to see a doctor is measured in minutes. And elective surgery can be carried out in a day or two. Problem for humans is that you have to be a cat or a dog. ****** Ryan Gosling, the 35-year-old Hollywood superstar who lists Cornwall as his hometown, plays alongside veteran Harrison Ford in “Blade Runner 2” which will flash across the big screens on Dec. 23. Oscar watchers think there might be an nomination in it for Gosling. He has two other movies in the Hollywood hopper: “The Big Short” in which he plays a sleazy investor looking to cash in on the housing bubble downturn. And, he will play alongside Russell Crowe, Matt Bower and Kim Basinger in “The Nice Guys”. ...

looking for new revenue sources and Brockville found one (actually an old source). In July 2014 the city brought back development fees that had been mothballed in 2009. In the final five months of 2014, the fees brought in $30,000. Developers are charged $3,450 for a new single or semi-detached home. Multiple dwellings are charged up to $2,600 per unit. Of course, in most cases the extra cost is passed on to the buyer, just as the HST. Cornwall doesn’t have development fees, yet. ****** Freshly minted Massena councillor Steve O’Shaughnessy (no relation to our mayor) had to chew on a plate of crow soon after being elected. He launched a one-man campaign to have Alcoa Field renamed because the company had cut 500 jobs at its Massena works. Mayor Timmy Currier thought it was a dumb idea and so did other members of council who pointed that the company was still the village’s major employer and a big player in charitable causes. Admitting that “90% of the people he talked to” after his news release was issued were against the idea, the councillor scrapped the idea. TRIVIA ANSWER On Feb. 1, 1975 a sodturning ceremony launched construction of Cornwall Civic Complex. The complex was officially opened on Oct. 31, 1976. A few weeks later the Harlem Globetrotters played in front of the city’s largest indoor sports crowd. Paid attendance was 5,500.

The annual gathering of old sweats (aka Jockfest) at the Navy Club on Sixth Street won’t be the same without Big Mike Heenan, who along with Andy Petepiece founded the event that at one point swelled to a couple of hundred “oldtimers”. A lot of the old sweats were back at the Navy Club Wednesday night. However, it had a more solemn tone. They were remembering Big Mike who died last week at age 69 after a brief illness. Heenan, a bear of a man, was a football lineman at Cornwall Collegiate and later with Ed Lumley’s Cornwall junior football squad. He also had a stint with the Hawkesbury senior club. Big Mike grew up on Whitehead Avenue where most of his neighbourhood chums were into music. At one time, there were 13 young musicians living in the neighbourhood. Big Mike was a drummer, and a pretty good one. Among the groups he played with during the Sixties and Seventies - when local bands flourished - were The Shermans, The Galaxies and The Lancers. He was a driving force in the local musicians guild and served a couple of terms as president. Back in the Sixties a lot of big names played gigs at Massena’s Willow Grove nightclub, a popular weekend hangout for the young, and at times rambunctious, Cornwall crowd, which was the Willow’s bread and butter. One of the bands booked for a gig at the Willow was Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels.

After many years of competing in major talent competitions over the past four years, Cornwall’s Kevin Rivette will hit the stage as a Franco-Ontarian artist yet again. Rivette will compete in the Canadian-wide talent search “Fais Moi Ta Toune” staged as provincial finalist in the 7-77 vocal interpretation age category. He’s no stranger to that classification. Rivette has been named the male vocalist champion in other major talent competitions in the past few years including the “Trois Pistoles en Chanson” in Trois Pistoles Québec and a semi-final spot at “Propulse Ta Voix”in St-Alexandre de Kamouraska, Que. “I love performing,” said Rivette. “Over the past few years, in fact most of my life, I have been searching within myself for happiness in my soul. I’m blessed with a great wife, friends and family, however performing has allowed me a channel where I find energy and profound rewards by the people who allow me to entertain them.” Rivette’s “Fais Moi Ta Toune” performance will take place on Dec. 5 in Asbestos, Qué. Rivette says that the producers of “Fais Moi Ta Toune” invite all candidates to extend a personal invitation to others to join their page and tune into their updated links via Facebook Page at facebook.com/concoursfaismoitatoune.

Parking lot rage leads to arrest CORNWALL, Ontario - A Cornwall woman was unexpectedly confronted by her ex common-law husband in a parking lot, where he threatened to burn down her house. Cornwall Community Police Service said the incident happened on Tuesday (Nov. 10). Police say the man also prevented the 43-year-old woman’s vehicle from exiting the parking lot. The 38-year-old suspect was located at his residence and held for a bail hearing. He was charged with threats, criminal harassment, and forcible confinement. No names were released to protect the victim’s identity. Clear-cut theft? Cornwall police caught up with a 28-year-old city man accused of shoplifting razors from a Ninth Street store on Oct. 18, nearly a month later, on Tuesday (Nov. 10), walking around Eleventh and Sydney streets. James Labelle was charged with theft under $5,000 and breach of probation for failing to keep the peace. He was released to appear in court on December 17.

A toast to the United Way of SDG CORNWALL, Ontario - The annual Holiday Wine & Gourmet Tastings event continues to grow in its appeal to oenophiles, foodies, and anyone interested in supporting charity. Close to 500 guests attended the swanky affair at the Nav Centre in Cornwall on Saturday, Nov. 21. “We’re inches away from $50,000,” said Angie Baker, chair of the Holiday Wine & Gourmet Tastings volunteer event committee.

It was later announced that some $48,296 had been raised, with a little bit more money expected to trickle in. Organizers pledged at least $20,000 to the local charitable organization, with an additional $5,000 being matched by Scotiabank Cornwall. In 2014, the event raised $39,000. It looks like Santa heard Pat Clarke, honourary chair of the event committee, who at the outset said: “This time, we’re really hoping to raise $50,000.” Nav Centre’s Luc McCabe (a main judge at Upper Canada Village’s annual Food Lovers’

Field Days - Iron Pan competition and season two contestant of Chopped Canada) catered the event. The classy affair also sported a new look compared to its two previous editions, and featured live jazz music, fine cuisine, gourmet dessert stations, martini bar, live and silent auction. “The real key to the success of the evening is we had over 100 sponsors,” said Baker. “Seaway News was our primary media partner. Without TC Media - Cornwall we would not have gotten

the word out the way we did.” Lori Greer, executive director of the United Way of SDG, said the 2015 campaign, which aims to raise $710,000 by Dec. 19 to support the 17 non-profit agencies (offering 18 programs) under its umbrella, is past the 25 per cent mark. For more information on how to support the charitable organization, call 613-932-2051 or visit unitedwaysdg.com and www.facebook. com/ United-WayCentraide-of-Stormont-DundasGlengarry.

–––––– GAME DAY ––––––

CORNWALL, Ontario - The Cornwall edition of the Run to end MS will have a new component next year - a qualifier for the Boston Marathon. Well, that’s the plan. Karen Torrie-Racine, volunteer office manager for the Cornwall chapter of the MS Society, said officials from Ottawa will be in the area in the next week or so to map out the route planned for the new marathon edition to the run. A marathon must be 42.195 km, and TorrieRacine said the plan is to have racers run from Crysler Park Marina west of the city into Cornwall. She said local race officials will submit the plan to Boston Marathon officials for approval. “It will be a really big draw for this area,” said Torrie-Racine. “We’re one of the first races of the year, so people in eastern Ontario will be really interested.” The 2016 edition of the Run to End MS will be the first one to ever incorporate a marathon component. Previous iterations have included a fiveand 10-km race, as well as a half marathon. The race is scheduled for April 30. Racers who will be competing in the components aside from the full marathon will still leave from St. Lawrence College and run west of the city. Marathon racers, who will be preregistered, will be bused to Crysler Park Marina to begin their run. Last year the event raised $26,000 for the MS Society of Canada.

from now on, thanks to a helpful referral from a neighbour. As the owners of an older home, Donald and his wife realized they could benefit from the Union Gas Home Weatherization WE PAY. YOU SAVE. Now’s the time to make your home more energy efficient.

Program, just as one of their neighbours had. “This house is over 100 years old, so it has never been fully insulated,” Donald says. “You could feel the cold from down in the basement, and the furnace would just never shut off.” So when a neighbour told him about the program that pays for energy-saving upgrades to homes like his, he took action right away. Following simple instructions on the Union Gas website, Donald contacted the authorized contractor, who guided him through the application and assessment process.

Last winter broke cold weather records – a fact you felt in your bones if your home doesn’t have enough insulation. Find out if you’re eligible for the program that provides and pays for upgrades that will insulate your home and save you up to 30 per cent every year in energy costs.

“You apply fi rst, then a person comes to do an energy assessment. He did quite a few tests and saw that the place really needed insulation.” Soon after the energy assessment was completed, Donald was called by the contractor to schedule

National Child Day: Kidding around with elected officials

home bundles just got better

CORNWALL, Ontario - The Boys and Girls Club of Cornwall/SDG celebrated National Child Day with an after (school) party of epic proportions. This year’s guest list included: MPP Jim McDonell, Cornwall Mayor Leslie O’Shaughnessy, and Councillors Justin Towndale and Carilyne Hebert, in addition to 40 students from two local French school boards, and youth enrolled in the club’s after-school programs. “National Child Day celebrates children’s rights,” said Jacquie Richards, executive director of BGC Cornwall/SDG.

The uniform thickness of a butterflied boneless leg of lamb makes it extremely simple to cook and serve. This cut of meat shouldn’t be hard to find, but if you get one that is boned and tied, ask your butcher to butterfly it. ingredients: 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 4 garlic cloves, minced 1 tablespoon dried oregano (preferably Greek), crumbled 2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 (4 1/2- to 5-lb) butterflied boneless leg of lamb, trimmed of fat Special equipment: a large (2-gallon) heavy-duty sealable plastic bag; 3 or 4 (10- to 12-inch) metal skewers preparation. Combine oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in sealable plastic bag. Add lamb and seal bag, pressing out air. Turn bag to coat lamb, then put bag in a shallow baking pan and marinate, chilled, turning bag over occasionally, at least 8 hours. Bring lamb to room temperature, about 1 hour, before grilling. Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure. Remove lamb from marinade (discard marinade) and run 3 or 4

skewers lengthwise through lamb about 2 inches apart. Grill on a lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using gas grill, turning over occasionally and, if necessary, moving around on grill to avoid flareups, until thermometer registers 125 to 128°F, 8 to

Des Queues de Castor et du chocolat chaud seront aussi offerts gratuitement aux participants, afin de se réchauffer le cœur. La projection en question est fait une animation, mettant en vedette trois personnages (un renard, un grizzly et un bonhomme de neige), qu’on estime qu’elle plaira à plusieurs. «Du plaisir pour toute la famille», assure Mme Cyr, en esquissant un large sourire. Sensiblement les mêmes coûts que l’an dernier Au total, sans compter la cérémonie d’illumination, on estime que les lumières auront coûté quelque 250 000$.

Mille feux, ce n’est pas peu dire puisque ce sont quelque 400 000 bulbes qui illumineront Ottawa pour la période des Fêtes. C’est 100 000 de plus que l’an dernier, mais en cette 31e illumination de la ville, on a cherché à se «renouveler» et à «bonifier» le tout explique Katherine Cyr, conseillère en communication au ministère du Patrimoine canadien. L’avenue MacKenzie est en fait l’une des rues qui sera nouvellement éclairées cette année. Ces centaines de milliers d’ampoules s’illumineront de 16h30 à 2h00, tous les jours à compter du 2 décembre. Et puisque cela fait beaucoup d’ampoules, Patrimoine canadien n’installe que des diodes électroluminescentes (DEL). «Elles consomment moins d’énergie et ont une durée de vie plus longue», spécifie la conseillère en communication. L’événement en soi, qui s’intitule «Lumières de Noël au Canada», ne sera officiellement lancé que le 2 décembre prochain, sur la colline du Parlement. Lors de cette soirée, il sera possible d’assister à la toute nouvelle projection multimédia qui

elle a, entre autres, joué au volleyball et fait partie de l’équipe nationale mixte de baseball. En 2009, elle a été nommée Athlète féminine de l’année au Gala de la Femme d’Alexandria. En 2010, elle a été reconnue pour sa contribution à la promotion du bien-être dans sa communauté par le regroupement des professionnels de l’exercice et du conditionnement physique au Canada. Plus récemment, elle a été intronisée au Temple de la renommée des sports de Glengarry. Elle offre plusieurs classes de conditionnement physique, des entraînements privés et a aussi démarré un club de marche, en association avec le restaurant Quirky Carrot à Alexandria. Le mode de vie sain de madame Lauzon a été inspiré par sa mère qui l’a toujours motivée à être forte et à prendre soin de sa santé. À 14 ans, elle a perdu sa mère, qui est partie trop tôt des suites d’un cancer. Cet exemple illustrait bien la technique qu’elle enseigne pour faire face aux épreuves. Nommée «SARA», cette technique est composée de quatre étapes : Shock/choc, Afraid/ peur, Resistance/résistance, Acceptance/acceptation. Cela décrit bien les différents états d’âme par lesquels chaque individu passe lorsqu’une difficulté se dresse sur son chemin. De plus, elle ajoute que nous devons nous sentir choyés chaque jour de se lever et de pouvoir goûter à la vie. Qu’il faut être positif et aborder chaque pépin comme un défi et non un stress. Le témoignage de madame Lauzon a été une réelle source d’inspiration pour la centaine de personnes présentes et son récit sur son voyage en Afrique une véritable motivation pour les défis auxquels nous aurons inévitablement à faire face à l’avenir.

CORNWALL, 20 novembre 2015 – 110 personnes se sont réunies, mardi soir, à la salle J.R. Brisson de Casselman pour le souper-conférence «Persévérance… La clé du succès». Cet événement, organisé par l’équipe du Programme d’éducation sur le diabète du Centre de santé communautaire de l’Estrie (CSCE), s’est déroulé dans le cadre du mois du diabète. La soirée avait pour but de sensibiliser la population sur les avantages d’adopter une attitude positive à l’égard d’une épreuve de la vie, telle la gestion d’une maladie comme le diabète. À cet effet, le CSCE était fier de recevoir madame Roxanne Lauzon, une athlète de Glengarry, propriétaire d’une entreprise de conditionnement physique, qui a récemment fait l’ascension du mont Kilimanjaro, en Afrique, un des plus hauts sommets du monde. L’important pour y arriver, selon elle, c’est de croire en soi et en ses capacités. Sa devise : «Dans la vie, peu importe si c’est sur le plan personnel, professionnel ou physique, on va frapper un mur. Il faut donc continuer de se rappeler que la réussite est à nos portes et qu’il faut donner tout ce qu’on a pour l’atteindre!». Et ce sont ces paroles qu’elle a dû se répéter à quatre heures de l’arrivée au sommet. Épuisée et affaiblie par les impacts de l’altitude, Madame Lauzon est passée près d’abandonner. Mais comme elle s’apitoie peu sur son sort (elle ne s’alloue que 10 secondes de pitié avant de se relever et foncer), elle s’est rappelé tous les gens de sa communauté, tous ceux qui croyaient en elle, et elle ne voulait surtout pas les décevoir. «J’aimais mieux me tuer à essayer que de revenir en ayant échoué!». Et elle a réussi! Madame Lauzon a été une athlète toute sa vie;

arrive à gagner la dernière partie au calendrier. Depuis l’été 2013 Construisant le club à partir de rien à son arrivée en poste en juillet 2013, le pilote aux origines portugaises a guidé le Fury d’une main de chef en refusant de dévier de l’identité de l’équipe. Après une première année qui s’est soldée par un résultat dans le bas du classement, le onze ottavien n’a pas connu un début de saison 2015 du tonnerre, lui qui pointait au 9e rang sur 11 équipes après la campagne printanière. Dos Santos n’a pas effectué de grands changements. Il a renforcé le centre du terrain avec l’acquisition de Julian de Guzman alors que certains milieux tels que Patryk Misik et Philippe Davies (retraite) ont préféré quitter l’organisation. Il a ajouté les attaquants Aly Hassan et Ugur Albayrak, seulement pour la profondeur. Il a fait de même en ayant en prêt le milieu de l’Impact de Montréal Jérémy Gagnon-Laparé. L’entraîneur ottavien a désormais assez de munitions pour entamer les séries éliminatoires du bon pied. Avec encore une partie à jouer, il pourra continuer à reposer son capitaine Richie Ryan, de même que certains éléments face aux Silverbacks d’Atlanta dans une dizaine de jours. On pourrait voir en action Marcel DeBellis défendre la cage du Fury. Gagnon-Laparé, qui a obtenu ses premières minutes hier contre l’Armada, pourrait être de la formation partante. Qui sait? Albayrak et Hassan pour commencer la partie? Ou encore un jeune de l’Académie qui a été gradué comme le produit local Jonathan Vallée ou Emad Houache.

Le 11 novembre 2015, à l’école Rose des Vents, nous avons souligné le jour du souvenir. Voici comment l’école entière a préparé cette cérémonie. Les classes de la 4e à la 6e année ont colorié des coquelicots en papier. Les médiums artistiques étaient variés: crayon de couleurs, papier mâché, peinture etc. Les classes de la maternelle à la 2e année ont fabriqué une couronne de coquelicots. En classe nous avons écouté une vidéo intitulée “C’est si peu de temps” interprétée par Terry Kelly. Cette vidéo nous prépare à bien faire la minute de silence, mais nous fait réfléchir. Aussi, nous avons reçu un journal appelé: Les animaux de guerre. En lisant ce journal, on apprend les utilités des animaux pendant la guerre sous forme de lecture et de jeux. Le mercredi 11 novembre, suite à la récréation, toutes les classes se sont rendues au gymnase pour vivre la cérémonie. En se rentrant au gymnase, les élèves de Mme Gagnon tenaient des coquelicots et une petite chandelle artificielle dans leurs mains. Ils étaient bien placés en rang d’un bout à l’autre de notre gymnase, jusqu’à notre représentation de la tombe du soldat perdu. Tous les élèves ont eu la chance de pouvoir regarder un montage fait par Mme Joanne Gagnon et son mari Marc Gagnon. Saviez-vous que Mme Gagnon organise cette cérémonie depuis 15 ans! Cette représentation de la tombe est faite en styromousse. Après, nous avons chanté le O’CANADA. M. Beaulieu, un enseignant de la cinquième année, nous a lu un poème intitulé: Au champ d’honneur. Ce poème a été écrit par John McCrae et fêtait son 100e anniversaire de création. Ce poème est triste! Vers la fin de la cérémonie, on a déposé nos coquelicots et les couronnes sur la fausse tombe. Notre directrice adjointe, Mme Anick Roy a remis un prix à Mme Joanne Gagnon car

Samara Elizabeth Boulianne, 5e année et Chloe Bazinet, 5e année celle-ci a organisé et animé la cérémonie du jour du souvenir depuis 15 ans. Mme Gagnon était très émue, elle a versé des larmes de reconnaissance envers l’attention qui lui était accordée, mais aussi envers la signification de cette journée pour elle. Merci madame Gagnon pour ton dévouement!

SPEC2824847

C’est fait! Grâce à une victoire de 3 à 1 sur l’Armada de Jacksonville, le Fury d’Ottawa est devenu l’équipe championne de la saison automnale dans la Ligue nord-américaine de soccer. En moins de deux ans, la formation dirigée par Marc Dos Santos a réalisé une mission qui relevait de l’imaginaire avant le début de la saison, elle qui a du même coup enregistré une 11e victoire de suite sur la route, soit un sommet dans le circuit Peterson. Remporter un titre collectif en si peu de temps est chose rare dans la NASL. Mais le Fury, qui n’avait besoin que d’un seul point pour s’assurer du sacre de champion, semble déjà avoir atteint la maturité et l’a prouvé une nouvelle fois au parc Community First, dans l’état de la Floride. Tirant de l’arrière 1 à 0 à la suite d’une puissante frappe de Mechack Jérôme du 35m, l’écurie aux couleurs rouge et blanche a fait preuve de caractère, refusant de céder. En moins de trois minutes, elle est passée d’un retard à une avance d’un but. Le défenseur Rafael Alves a fait dévier un coup franc botté au ras du sol (59e) pour niveler la marque. Puis, le milieu Sinisa Ubiparipovic a surpris le gardien Miguel Gallardo d’un tir croisé en lob bien placé dans le coin du filet adverse. L’attaquant Andrew Wiedeman a assuré la victoire à son équipe dans les arrêts de jeu lorsqu’il a accepté une superbe passe au centre de Carl Haworth avant de battre le cerbère de l’Armada. Ces trois points s’ajoutent à la banque de la troupe de la capitale qui disputera la demi-finale du Soccer Bowl à la Place TD le dimanche 8 novembre. Et qui sait? Peut-être même la finale si elle

Dueling artists brush up for battle Adam Brazeau

CORNWALL, Ontario - Mix blank canvases, splashes of paint, colourful palettes, and a 20-minute time limit - you’ve got the second annual Art Battle in Cornwall. Jason Sauve made it to the final round of the head-to-head painting challenge and live art auction at the Social, Conference & Event Centre, on Friday (Nov. 20). “You’re just going off instinct,” said Sauve, one of a dozen Art Battle Canada participants. “At first the crowd was messing me up. Then, I shut it all down, until it was just me and the painting. I had a rough idea of what I was doing since it’s fall. The challenge was not fussing on the smaller aspects. I had to learn not to obsess as much over the details, and let the work dictate the direction.” Cornwall’s second Art Battle Canada event participants included: Sylvie Labrecque, Jennifer Shearer, Jade Thompson, Morgan Tremblay, Emma Cardona, Laura Leah Traverse, Kimberly Cameron, Jacqueline Milner, and Lorna Foreman. The winner of this year’s competition is Kristine Picken. She will be painting again in the regional finals in June 2016.

Sauve’s painting received the highest bid after the battle during the live auction. Each artist received 50 per cent of the sale. Sauve has already made his mark on the local music scene, as the songwriter-guitarist of local country rock outfit, SwitchGear. But over the last year, he’s added burgeoning painter to his repertoire. “I made the website, then it was on the back burner with the band and everything. I picked up the brush this spring for therapeutic reasons and put some online for fun - it got so many likes and comments. It felt fulfilling...then I did a few more and people wanted to buy them. It’s a blessing.” Jesse McMahon, Art Battle Canada event organizer and artist, described the Seaway City as a hidden gem for artistic talent and community support. “Cornwall is fantastic,” said McMahon. “I wasn’t sure what to expect when we came last year, but there’s talent and energy...everyone is so helpful.” She added: “This event helps to build awareness about local art - and for artists to realize that the people are interested in what they’re doing don’t be afraid to put yourself out there.” For more information, visit www.facebook. com/artbattlecanada.

CORNWALL, Ontario - A ride on the information super highway for a couple of local motorcycle enthusiasts was a lot shorter than they thought. Randy Lalonde and Trevor Jeaurond were sharing stories about their respective love for Kawasaki motorcycles in an online forum where like-minded riders swap information about their bikes. While people from all over Canada, and indeed the world, are members of Kawasaki Triples Canada the Cornwall pair had no idea until a little sleuthing was completed - that they lived in the same community. Jeaurond is in the homestretch of a project to rebuild a 1978 Kawasaki KH400 that was relegated to the basement for 27 years. He recently met up with Lalonde, who has pretty much completed work on his 1975 Kawasakie 500 - and she’s a beauty. The bike was purchased five years ago for just $400, but is now priceless in the mind of Lalonde, who confesses he loves the idea of being on the open road atop two wheels. “It’s the power, and the feeling of acceleration,”

Randy Lalonde shows off his fullyrestored 1975 Kawasaki 500 triple at his Cornwall home. he said. “And the smell. Nothing smells the same as a two-stroke motor.” The motor was blown when Lalonde picked up the bike, but since then has been rebuilt with new racing pistons, a rebuilt crank and new carburetors...among other pieces. Lalonde holds a special place in his heart for Long Sault’s Jim Reid who welded and fitted some exhaust pipes for the bike. “It runs ok,” confessed Lalonde, who suggested some tuning work will have to be completed before the bike is in top shape.“Next spring I will be fully insured and on the road. “Good to go, for sure.”

This event would not have been possible without the sponsors, auction donors and GUESTS! THANK YOU for believing in YOUR COMMUNITY!

There’s more to the Adirondacks than Lake Placid Nick Wolochatiuk Dances With Words nuthilltoo@gmail.com

En route to Lake Placid, you may have noticed signage for Deer River Flow, Santa Clara Flow or Higley Flow. No dictionary has provided me with that usage of the term Most of you have taken the drive to Lake ‘flow’. However, our paddling experience Placid, the tourist mecca of ‘The North has taught us that a ‘flow’ originated as a Country’ of New York State. Its hinterland is the Adirondacks, an extension of the Canadian Shield. The Adirondacks are dotted with the ruins of abandoned mining sites (such as Tahawus); a spider web of disused railway beds (including New York Central’s) and mysterious ghost villages (Adirondac, whose houses were trailered down the road to Newcomb, much like the relocation of the Lost Villages). When the US or Canada customs grill us WOODSTOVES • INSERTS FIREPLACES about our intended destination or most recent Adirondack travels, obscure places WOOD HEAT. such as Porcaville, White Fathers, FOR LIFE. Thatcherville, Whippleville and Onchiota make the list. Just imagine the look on your dog’s face if you were to explain the Pythagorean Theorem to it. Any agent who has actually listened to our response to his query gets that look on his face. Most ignore what we’ve said and just mumble, “Have a Locally owned & operated since 1977 nice day.” With the few who are locals, welltravelled and knowledgeable, we have 127 Augustus St., Cornwall 613-938-9442 friendly exchanges of experiences. They www.cameronspfk.com start with something like, “Yeah, interesting place. If you go to the far end, near the cliff, you’ll find an old school bus. Behind it is a spring with good drinking water. By the way, how’s the canoeing there?” More puzzling place naming: try naming the bodies of water that Lake Placid and Saranac Lake are on. Asking locally will probably give you incorrect answers. Only after some perusing of detailed maps and Google searching will you get the correct answers: Mirror (not Placid) and Flower (not Saranac). Mirror Lake is barely more than a pond, but it has been bestowed with the name ‘lake’. This autumn we paddled Osgood Pond for the first time. It’s almost six kilometers from end to end, many times larger than 2016 Mirror ‘Lake’, but it’s saddled with the E DECEMBER DÉCEMBR demeaning suffix ‘Pond’.

river, but became more like a lake by having its outlet dammed, sometimes just for recreational purposes, or harnessing the backed-up reservoir for milling or generating hydro power. My favourite playground is the

Adirondacks. I know a lot about it, thanks to scrutinizing detailed maps, venturing beyond signs that warn “DEAD END UNIMPROVED ROAD –USE AT YOUR RISK” and querying locals. However, what I know is overshadowed by what I’ve yet to learn.

They are doing much-needed renovations to the parking garage, why not add new stores inside? It would also be nice to have a few more high quality ladies’ stores.

The Wildcats Football Club float in Cornwall’s Santa Claus Parade was awesome. The annual event was a spectacular sight to behold and on a beautiful evening. Congratulations to all involved.

We are so blessed in our community to have such incredible health care service whether ambulance, emergency care and mental health care. Thank you to all for your great caring ways. It was greatly appreciated in my time of need.

Confessions of a store santa

While I was working as a store Santa, a boy asked me for an electric train set. “If you get your train,” I told him, “your dad is going to want to play with it too. Is that all right?” The boy became very quiet. So, moving the conversation along, I asked, “What else would you like Santa to bring you?” He promptly replied, “Another train.”
