Bear-A-Thon supports loving Christmas

NICK SEEBRUCH

nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – Rachel’s Kids House of Hope is holding a Bear-A-Thon today, Wednesday, Nov. 13. They are asking the public to sponsor 150 bears for 150 children this Christmas.

The bears are four ft. tall and come with a gift card for Kids Korner in Cornwall.

Rachel’s Kids asked the public to donate $200 to cover the cost of the gift card and the bear, with some of the proceeds going to support Rachel’s Kids House of Hope.

Kim Lauzon, Executive Director of Rachel’s Kids hoped to get all of the bears sponsored on Wednesday. The sponsor of the bear can

nominate a child in need who could use a boost of love and joy this Christmas to receive the bear and gift card.

The bears were going fast. By 11 a.m. on Wednesday, 40 bears had already been sponsored.

Rachel’s Kids will turn to the community to find a home for any bears not nominated to go towards a deserving child in need.

Nomination forms can be found at Rachel’s Kids House of Hope office.

“The House of Hope is all about children and this is another way to give back to the children at Christmas time,” Lauzon said.

The major sponsor for the bears is Maxx Offroad & Performance.

continued Bischof. “We gave our notice to bargain almost seven months ago, but we are still waiting for even one meaningful, serious response to our key proposals that address the quality of publicly funded education.”

While the strike mandate has been approved, OSSTF say that the will not be starting job action just yet.

“We are at the bargaining table today and not on the picket line as we could have been.

This is a choice we made for this week because we remain committed to looking for solutions through negotiations. I sincerely hope the Ford government seeks the same and isn’t intent on creating additional unnecessary conflict,” Bischof concluded.

Members voted 95 per cent in favour of a strike mandate.

“This is a powerful mandate from our members, and it sends a compelling message,” said OSSTF/FEESO President Harvey Bischof. “Our members are committed to defending the quality of education in Ontario against a government that is determined to undermine it, and they are absolutely prepared to defend their ability to provide the best possible learning environment for the students they work with.”

“They are also telling us, quite emphatically, that they are losing patience with a government that refuses to engage in meaningful discussion about major issues that affect the quality of learning in their schools,”

Santa Claus Parade 2019 NICK SEEBRUCH

@C:nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – The Santa Claus parade is a 48-year-old tradition in Cornwall, and that tradition continued on Saturday, Nov. 16, 2019.

Starting as it usually does, from St. Lawrence Secondary School on Second St., the parade and its 45 entrants travelled west, all the way to Augustus St. The parade wrapped things up at the Cornwall Civic Complex with a dinner and awards ceremony that evening.

The parade would not be possible every year without the support of a strong team of volunteers, such as Terry Muir.

MARC BENOIT SPECIAL TO SEAWAY NEWS

CORNWALL, Ontario - Saturday was Hockey day in Cornwall as the Cornwall Police Services (CPS) hosted the seventh annual street hockey challenge took over a stretch of Montreal Rd., during the afternoon on Nov. 16.

“This is an event that’s been going on for seven years. It’s a three on three hockey challenge,” said Robin McIntosh, who spearheads the event alongside his colleagues at the

230910

CCPS. “We have kids from the Boys and Girls Club and different schools in the community.”

Kids sign up through their schools or the Boys and Girls Club prior to the event. This year welcomed 22 teams to the asphalt and brought out countless spectators lining the

sidewalks.

“It’s all about community relations, getting in touch with the kids and we see parents out here too,” said McIntosh. “It’s always good to have the police interacting with the community.”

This year, prizes were awarded for the top teams. The first prize

team earned $1500 for their school, and the second prize team won $1000. McIntosh said that the schools can freely decide how best to spend their winnings.

“This is all meant to just be an experience for these kids and give them the chance to play

organized sports. At the end of the day, everyone gets a medal.

Kids come out and have a good time and that’s what it’s all about,” said McIntosh.

The Cornwall Chamber of Commerce is currently in the hunt for a new Executive Director. Whoever is chosen will have some big shoes to fill. Lezlie Strasser, who left the job at the Chamber earlier this year, and over her 32-year career, she did much to shape the modern organization.

Now that the Chamber is in between Executives, I feel it is the perfect time to weigh-in on where I think the Chamber should go in the future to better serve the Cornwall community and who would be the right person to lead that initiative.

I’m not basing these opinions in a vacuum. I’ve looked at what the Canadian Chamber of Commerce does and there are some key points that I think our local organization can adopt to improve the local economy.

I believe that the future of the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce will depend on the services it provides and not entirely on events that it holds.

Events such as seminars and guest speakers are important, but it is access to services that entrepreneurs and small business owners need on a daily basis that will make the real difference.

The Canadian Chamber of Commerce on its website offers access to skills training, industry experts, productivity tools and funding sources. The Cornwall Chamber on its website does offer links to funding resources, but I feel that not having and

Ever ridden a bucking bronco or an angry bull? Me neither. Ever been in a helicopter after one of its rotor blades broke off? We’d probably not be here if that had happened to one of us.

However, I now know I’d need a death grip to resist a bull’s violent up and down pounding as it tries to throw me to the ground. I also know enough about helicopters to know that if one blade fails, almost every component of the aircraft, and its occupants, would be tossed about in the same way as an angry wolf deals with a rabbit it has gripped in its fangs.

I can read what’s on your mind: “So what near-death experience did you have to get this insight into how it feels to be shaken,

promoting access to skills training especially is a missed opportunity.

The future of the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce lies in being a hub for business growth, as it should be, which means providing access to skills training for a variety of industries and promoting employment.

Building a strong workforce is just one challenge that businesses of all sizes face in Cornwall. The Cornwall Chamber of Commerce should be the source of business solutions in the city. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce offers a Business Concierge service where business owners can submit questions or problems and the Chamber will research solutions. This would be a great initiative for the Cornwall Chamber to adopt as well.

Earlier this year, the Chamber announced that it would be selling their property on the corner of Second and Sydney streets. I believe that this is a smart move. The Chamber requires an office, not ownership of a whole building and the headaches that come with that.

As for the person who I believe should be the next Executive Director, I think we need a person who is ambitious and dynamic.

Someone who is eager to try new things, and won’t be discouraged or deterred when they are told “no”. We need bold thinking, we need new thinking; which is why I believe that the new Executive Director of the Chamber should be innovative and open minded. The executive board, while reviewing the local applicants, should also

look at someone from outside the community from another small city, or someone who left and live in other places and has now returned with fresh eyes and knowledge.

In terms of professional background, the new Executive Director should have experience in all forms of marketing including print. They should understand how to create websites and conduct e-commerce.

Finally, the new Cornwall Chamber of Commerce Executive Director should have experience and a proven track record in securing funding, not just from governmental organizations, but also from angel investors.

In their job posting for the Executive Director job, the Chamber emphasizes that

Cornwall is a great place to live and work, which tells me that they are looking outside of the community for this hire. This is something that I’m not opposed to. The Executive Director job at the Chamber of Commerce is also a political position, and perhaps it would be good to get someone with an outside perspective, who isn’t beholden to any allegiances that they may have that comes with living for a long while in a small community.

jostled, tossed about, battered and be almost ripped apart?”

Here’s my true story: years ago, we built two raised gardens. They covered enough space to park two Cadillacs side-by-side.

The perimeter of 6” X 6” timbers that enclosed the bed of soil reached almost hip high. A plastic weed barrier was supposed to prevent the roots of adjacent cedars and maples from invading the bed of soil.

That weed barrier didn’t work. We ended up with little more than a mass of roots, an impenetrable mat of root hairs and remnants of the weed barrier.

To transform the monolith back to an easily managed grassy mound I rented a rototiller.

Not familiar with rototillers? It’s a dozenor-so scimitar-like blades spun about by a snorting gas engine. In an ideal world, the soil is free of roots, and a vertical spike controls the rate of advance of the tiller.

Ear guards on, engine racing, I was ready to set the blades a-spinning. I expected to just stand in place while the blades did their job.

As soon as I disengaged the clutch by squeezing the lever that was on the bottom of the tiller handlebar, the beast lurched ahead. My first reaction was to restrain the beast by tightening my grip on its handlebars.

I was like a midget trying to stop a speeding freight train by grabbing onto the caboose. I felt as if I was water skiing on ten-foot waves that were covered with pulpwood logs. I was flat on my stomach, holding onto the handlebars and being dragged forward.

Fortunately, I came to my senses and released the clutch. Unfortunately, the handle was being dragged along the ground, not disengaging. Realizing my attempt to stop the escapee was futile, I let go completely. At full throttle, the fully engaged

tiller blades continued to propel the juggernaut forward.

Its advance was only stopped by our yard’s perimeter of cedar trees. The machine toppled onto its side, engine racing. Before I was able to catch up to it to shut it off, crankcase oil had spilled onto the hot engine. All I could see was a blue cloud. A roaring tiller was somewhere inside it.

It wasn’t only the smoke that turned the air blue.

Hero that I am, I dived into the cloud, fumbling for the off-switch. I found the hot crank case first. Fortunately, the blades didn’t find me before I found the switch.

Silence! Smoke! Heavy breathing, groaning. As soon as my wife who had witnessed this spectacle realized only my pride was hurt, she rolled on the ground in helpless laughter.

The day after the editorial, police released the names. However, Justice of the Peace Fred Lepage was “too busy” to talk the media.

The newspaper, citing a legal expert, pointed out that a justice of the peace did not have the jurisdiction to try a case involving the Ontario Liquor Control Act, in a court room let alone in the privacy of his office.

ALSO THIS WEEK IN 1967 Police closed the investigation into the death of a 32-yearold Montreal nurse whose body was found in an abandoned cheese factory near Alexandria. An autopsy showed that she had committed suicide. Police believed the body had been in the old factory for about three weeks. Her passport showed she was from China. ... Stormont MPP Fern Guindon was named by Premier John Robarts to his cabinet as minister without portfolio. ...

TRIVIA This company operated a warehouse on Water Street at the foot of Pitt Street from 1914 to 1958.

TRIVIA ANSWER At the stroke of midnight Jan. 1, 1945 Cornwall took on city status.

THIS AND THAT As they say in Texas, who would have thunk it? In this case, a Conservative candidate breaking down a diversity barrier as the local riding’s first openly gay MP. And sweeping the riding in landslide style with a 54% slice of the vote, and winning very conservative Dundas by an even bigger margin.

I’m tired of people like Jane Fonda telling me that I have to change my modest lifestyle to save Mother Earth.

The 81-year-old actress/activists is leading a series of Friday climate change protests in Washington, D.C. and, of course, gets arrested, just as the script calls for.

She is preaching from the Green Deal bible that is so far to the left even former President Barrack Obama warns is tilted too far to the left.

How does Fonda, who rails against America’s thirst for fossil fuels, get to Washington from Los Angeles for the rallies? Not by bicycle. She takes a huge carbon emission spewing jet liner. Back and forth. At least Greta came to North America by boat.

Unlike so many of the unwashed she preaches to, Fonda, whose net worth is listed at $220 million, lives a lavish lifestyle, out of public view, of course. She lives in a Hollywood 7,200-square-foot mansion. You don’t heat a 7,200-square-foot mansion in California, but you sure need air conditioning for about 10 months of the year.

And I doubt if she is using candles to light the place. Doubt if the four-car garage is for her bicycles.

Look, I’m trying to do my part to save the planet. I drive a nine-year-old four-cylinder car that runs on the eco option. (Disclosure: My wife has a new small cross-over). I live in a 1,300-square-foot bungalow. I turn down the heat to 66 at night. Pump it up to 69 in the day time, if we are at home.

Seldom run the central air in summer. I’ve switched to energy saving bulbs. Use the

clothes line in the summer and a clothes rack in the furnace room in the winter.

When need be, I hang clothes and sheets on the treadmill and stationary bicycle. The clothes dryer is 25 years old. I turn it on for a minute every now and then to see if it still works. Most of the time I wash the dishes in the sink rather than run the dish washer.

I compost. I recycle. Use cloth bags for my groceries, when I remember to take them out of the trunk. I’ve taken up kayaking rather than burning through a 20-gallon tank of gas on a summer weekend.

Like I said, I’m trying to do my best.

I just don’t like going to protests.

FROM THE VAULT - 1967 City police and the local court system were accused by the Standard-Freeholder of operating a double standard.

In a rare City Page editorial on Nov. 15, 1967 the newspaper took issue with the way police and the court system dealt with the arrest of 17 local teens charged with drinking under age (legal age was 21) after a raid on an east Cornwall house a week earlier.

It was part of a crackdown on under-age drinking.

Police refused to release the names of the 15 who were not juveniles. It also was learned that a public court appearance was circumvented by swiftly parading the accused before the justice of peace in his office. no doubt with parents in tow, where they pleaded guilty and received fines, which might have been the lesser punishment after the call to parents from the police department.

The newspaper pointed to similar cases where city police didn’t hesitate to make names public. The editorial suggested that perhaps it was because they didn’t have the kind of influence needed for “special” treatment by police and the court system.

Pictured are Tareq Hadhad of Peace by Chocolate, Cornwall Mayor Bernadette Clement and Ren Navarro of Beer Diversity at the kitchen table talk organized by Mayor Clement on Thursday, November 14, 2019 (Nick Seebruch/ Seaway News).

Hadhad told the story of how he community of Antigonish donated many items to his new home in the community.

“They helped us make our first factory in 2016, and through that we have become an international phenomenon,” Hadhad said.

Peace by Chocolate is distributed nationally by Sobey’s and they will be expanding into the United States in 2020.

Mayor Clement explained that her goal for the kitchen

table talk on Thursday night was that people listen to the personal narratives of Navarro and Hadhad and learn about growth through inclusion and diversity.

“I want people to think about Cornwall and the surrounding area and how we can attract more development through diversity,” she said.

Earlier in the day, Hadhad had been the keynote speaker at the Eastern Ontario Local Food Conference.

CORNWALL, Ontario – Mayor Bernadette Clement held a kitchen table talk at the Nav Centre on Thursday, Nov. 14, 2019 focusing on the themes of inclusion, diversity, and growth to a packed lecture hall.

Invited to facilitate the discussion on these themes was new Canadian and former Syrian refugee Tareq Hadhad, who’s family started the Peace

by Chocolate company and Ren Navarro of Beer Diversity, a company modeled on promoting how beer and diversity can go hand-in-hand.

Navarro consults with restaurants and shows them different ways in promoting diversity.

“You always want to make something welcoming to people,” she said.

“When you acknowledge diversity in people through the diversity of beer it is welcoming.”

She said that she often encouraged clients to connect with local charities and would encourage diversity by bringing in diverse members of her industry, female craft brewers for example.

Hadhad, who’s father started a chocolate factory in Syria, came to Canada as a refugee after his family business was destroyed during the Syrian Civil War. He settled in Antigonish, NS, and explained how his new small town community helped support his family’s new business, Peace by Chocolate.

Hadhad said that his goal for the evening was to demonstrate ways that small towns can support growth through embracing diversity.

“It’s all about reflecting about our experience in the small town of Antigonish, NS,” Hadhad explained. “I want to talk about what can be copied in Cornwall so that newcomers can be embraced and supported everywhere.”

Council approves two per cent raise for Mayor nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – At their meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 12, Cornwall City Council approved a two per cent increase to the Mayor’s salary.

Mayor Bernadette Clement stepped down from her chair for this part of the meeting, which was instead chaired by Acting Mayor Councillor Eric Bergeron.

In August, Council approved a modest raise for itself, but at the time, the Mayor’s salary was not addressed.

A report from Administration recommended that the Mayor’s salary be increased by two per cent, roughly the rate of inflation, from $53,941 to $55,020.

Council typically votes on their own salary at the end of their term, but the past two councils chose to vote against increases.

“The raise, I have no problem with, but I just don’t think we should be giving it to ourselves. So I’m being consistent here,” explained Councillor Todd Bennett who

argued in August, and again on Tuesday that the increase be made for the next council in three years.

Councillor Dean Hollingsworth however pointed out that waiting to the end of the term made an already hot button issue even more contentious.

“If we talk about it right before an election, it is never going to happen,” he said. “I don’t think it is wrong to get a raise from time to time on an annual basis and rate of inflation makes sense.”

When compared to similar sized cities, Cornwall’s mayor’s salary is slightly higher than the province-wide average. For cities between 25,000 and 49,999 in population, an average mayor’s salary is $52,592, as stated above, the Cornwall Mayor’s current salary is $53,941.

Mayor Clement voted in favour of the increase and before the vote, she explained to her council colleagues as to why.

“This is really about a cost of living increase, and I will be transparent and

New Executive Director at Agapè Centre 2019 Mazda3 Sport GS NICK SEEBRUCH

CORNWALL, Ontario – The Agapè Centre Board of Directors has announced that they have selected a new Executive Director.

The Board has hired Lisa Duprau. Duprau is taking over from Joh Ann Couture who moved on from the position earlier this year.

“The board is excited about Lisa’s vision,” said Maurice Dupelle, board chair. “We hope the community will join us in welcoming Lisa to her new role.”

In a news release, the Agapè Centre Board of Directors cite Duprau’s experience in managing a thrift store, managing fundraisers, managing residential support staff and as a

counsellor as some of her key qualifications for the job of Executive Director.

In a statement to Seaway News Duprau outlined her vision for the Agapè Centre.

“My vision for the Agape Centre is to secure sustainable funding, expand on the current success of the New For You thrift store and create more programs that support people in our community who struggle with food insecurity,” she wrote. “We have an exceptional team at the Centre who are all dedicated to providing people with the best services possible. I am looking forward to working with all the staff, volunteers and the Board of Directors as we move forward into 2020.”

“I just got word they were approved for that (licence) and are just trying to finalize some parking arrangements,” said Young. “I’m sure it takes a little while to get the ridership…but they saw a need and there are a lot of commuters (from the area) going to Ottawa.”

A bus schedule, posted here, outlines morning pick-up time in Ingleside at 5:45 a.m. and arrival in the south end of Ottawa at 7:08 a.m. with commuters set to reach the furthest stop, Tunney’s Pasture, at 7:43 a.m.

The departure from our nation’s capital begins at 4 p.m. at Tunney’s Pasture, with arrival back in Ingleside set for 6:15 p.m.

COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE DE LA CNS MOOSE CREEK, Ontario - La Conservation de la Nation Sud (CNS) possède et entretient plus de 30 kilomètres de sentiers récréatifs adaptés aux chiens dans son réseau de quatorze aires de conservation de l’Est de l’Ontario; plus de 70 000 visiteurs ont été enregistrés jusqu’ici en 2019.

Les sentiers de la CNS offrent aux résidents un moment de solitude, loin de la routine de leur vie trépidante, en reliant les gens et leurs animaux de compagnie à la nature. Les sentiers permettent également la pratique d’une gamme d’activités récréatives de plein air rentables, notamment la marche, la course à pied, le ski de fond, la raquette et la géocachette.

Les sentiers publics inculquent un engagement envers des loisirs de plein air responsables qui favorisent le respect de la nature et des espaces verts dont nous jouissons collectivement. Afin d’assurer la protection de nos terres publiques d’importance écologique, nous rappelons aux gens et à leurs animaux de compagnie de rester sur des sentiers balisés et entretenus. « Tous nos parcs sont adaptés aux chiens et nous encourageons les résidents à sortir avec leurs animaux de compagnie », explique John Mesman, responsable des communications à la CNS. « Mais nous rappelons poliment aux résidents de tenir leurs chiens en laisse, de céder le chemin aux autres, de ne pas déranger les plantes et la faune, et de nettoyer les déchets de leurs chiens. » Les résidents locaux Josh Gibeau et son épouse Laura Ellam ont récemment déménagé à Moose Creek où ils se retrouvent en train de promener leur chien Meeka à l’aire de conservation de la forêt Warwick de la CNS à Berwick. « C’est un beau réseau de sentiers bien entretenu, » dit Josh. « Le fait d’être attentif aux autres sur le sentier et de ramasser après Meeka contribue grandement à la protection

Burton et J. Henry Tweed dans Russell, la forêt Two Creeks à Morrisburg, Robert Graham dans Glen Stewart et la forêt Warwick à Berwick.

La CNS a également conclu des ententes avec des partenaires municipaux pour entretenir d’autres sentiers et parcs, notamment le parc Nokomis à Limoges et le sentier récréatif Russell.

Défilé du Père Noël à Cornwall

NICK SEEBRUCH

nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL (Ontario) - La parade du Père Noël est une tradition vieille de 48 ans à Cornwall, un tradition qui s’est maintenue le samedi 16 novembre 2019. À partir de l’école secondaire St. Lawrence sur la rue Second, le défilé et ses 45

participants se sont dirigés vers l’ouest, jusqu’à la rue Augustus.

Le défilé s’est terminé au Cornwall Civic Complex avec un dîner et une cérémonie de remise des prix ce soir-là.

Le défilé ne serait pas possible chaque année sans le soutien d’une solide équipe de bénévoles, telle que Terry Muir.

Tracks are a natural settling place for things and the moisture that always condenses on glass or mirrors.

Vacuum first and use an old tooth brush to help remove most of the dirt.

Then use a spray bottle with an all purpose cleaner, spray the tracks then drape a cleaning cloth over a screwdriver and run it through the tracks until clean. After dried, spray a little WD-40 on them.

Liberal leadership candidate pitches “new” Ontario Liberal Party NICK SEEBRUCH

nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – Ontario Liberal Leadership candidates Michael Coteau stopped in Cornwall on Sunday night, Nov. 17, at King George Restaurant to meet with local supporters and to pitch his vision for the future of the party.

“They say that our party collapsed last election, it actually died,” Coteau told the audience at King George.

Optimistically though, Coteau pointed to how one million voters still cast their ballots for the Liberal party last provincial election.

“We have the ability to build a brand new party,” he said.

Coteau explained that he was touring Ontario to get feedback from local Liberal Party Associations (LPAs) and to hear about the priorities that mattered to them.

One issue that Coteau spent time on discussing with the audience while he was taking questions was climate change.

“I think that climate change is one of the biggest issues we face as Ontarians,” he said.

To help reduce the province’s carbon footprint and to fight climate change Coteau has proposed introducing free public transit within a decade.

Additionally, Coteau said that he would look at re-introducing subsidies to purchase

electric vehicles and have more charging stations for those vehicles installed throughout the province.

Coteau also took shots at the record of Progressive Conservative Premier Doug Ford.

“Who cuts services to children with special needs, who cuts funding to libraries and nutritional programs,” Coteau asked referring to cuts either introduced or proposed by the Ford government.

Coteau also promised that he would improve his French and said that the province of Ontario should be providing encouragement and support to its French language population.

“French is the fastest growing language on the planet,” Coteau claimed.

Coteau is a three term MPP from the Toronto area. He served in the Wynne government in multiple cabinet positions including Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, Minister of Tourism, Minister of Youth Services and Minister for Social Services.

Coteau is currently facing four rivals for his party’s leadership including former Education Minister Mitzie Hunter, former Transportation Minister Steven Del Duca, Kate Graham, who ran unsuccessfully for the London North riding in the 2018 election and is an instructor at Western University, and Alvin Tedjo, who ran unsuccessfully in the Oakville NorthBurlington Riding in 2018 and is a former Liberal Party staffer.
