City projects to be shelved thanks to winter clean-up costs

CORNWALL, Ontario - It would seem the pain of the murders of two Canadian soldiers weeks ago has not been lost on local residents.

Royal Canadian Legion Branch 297 members were swamped with demand for poppies - mirroring the same kind of response across the country in the run up to Remembrance Day. Hugh Primeau, chair of the Cornwall poppy campaign, said just days before Remembrance Day more than 34,000 of the 51,000 poppies he ordered this year had been snatched up by patriotic Cornwallites looking to show their respect for soldiers - including Cpl. Nathan Cirillo and W.O. Patrice Vincent who were killed by terrorists.

Primeau said the number would undoubtedly climb.

“The people we have out (selling) poppies are commenting on how people are really looking for them,” said Primeau. “Things are going very well.”

Karson St. Pierre awaits some instructions from his mother before placing a wreath at Across the country more than 19 million the Cornwall Cenotaph. poppies had been sold, a record.

“We won’t know by how much until we get city, including big box stores, selling poppies.

CORNWALL, Ontario - The harsh 2014 winter continues to wreak havoc with city finances, and bean counters have been forced to shelve a handful of capital projects because there's no money left in the budget to clean city streets and sidewalks of snow.

Finance manager Maureen Adams told city council Monday night the winter control budget has been completely spent for 2014, but there is still the potential for snow clean-up to take place as winter approaches prior to year end.

As a result, a handful of projects, including the addition of cameras to city buses as well as some road work, has been set aside.

"Those projects will be resubmitted in 2015," Adams told councillors.

The city is forecasting it will cost about $650,000 to remove snow and ice from streets and sidewalks prior to year end.

Local vet relives battle through today’s images bloody engagement between Canadian and Axis soldiers in 1943.

Marion said Ring’s eyes filled when she showed him some of the images from what was once a war-torn piece of real estate that claimed 1,375 Canadian lives.

“There were tears,” she said. “It was nice.”

Ring remembers with clarity his time as a soldier in Italy.

“We got down there in about November of 1943,” he said, adding Canadian troops had just crossed into the country after fighting in North Africa.

The Burns snapped picture after picture that mask some of the destruction inflicted upon the

landscape during the Second World War. But not everything has been lost.

“He saw a bridge in one of the photographs,” said Marion, adding Ring also recognized a house next to the structure that was well known among troops for the women who worked there.

“The ladies of the night,” Ring said, with a wry grin.

Ring, a native of Dartmouth, N.S., made his mark after the war as a meteorologist for Environment Canada at what was initially known as the Transport Canada Training Institute, but now goes by the moniker Nav Canada.

Al Ring, left, looks at some of the photos shot by Vic and Marion Burns on a recent trip to Italy, the site of a bloody battle during the Second World War.

But his handshake is still as strong as a bear, and his mind, including memories of a battlefield from 70 years ago, remains as sharp as a tack.

Ring, through a pair of mutual friends her shares with long-time pal Larry Sharron of Long Sault, was able to relive some of the memories her experienced as a trooper for the Princess Louise Fusiliers who fought in North Africa and Italy during the Second World War. Sharron’s neighbours, Vic and Marion Burns, travelled to Italy this year, and snapped more than a few photos of Ortona - the site of a

FROM THE STREETS TO CITY HALL: Thibault has seen it all

CORNWALL, Ontario - The only city councillor who didn’t run in the 2014 municipal election often spends time thinking back to what life was like as a teenager. Denis Thibault, an eight-year veteran of Cornwall politics, spent time in Ottawa as a street kid. Like most stories that start out that way, Thibault - known in some circles for his fiery temper - had been kicked out of high school at the age of 17. The reception he got when he returned home that fateful day was simple.

“My dad said get yourself back in school or find yourself another place to live,” Thibault recalls.

“Being the oldest of eight kids, there wasn’t a lot of room for another mouth that wasn’t bringing in anything else.”

So Thibault hit the road, but not before making what some could argue was his first political statement. On the way out of Bonfield, Ont., which is close by to North Bay and had a population at the time of 408, Thibault brought with him a can of spray paint.

“I put a line through the eight and put a seven on it,” he said with a laugh.

What followed were some trying times, living on the streets of Ottawa (where he eventually landed) wondering where his next meal would come from, and where he would sleep.

“When you’re on the streets you understand the idea of where does your next meal come from.

Back in the early 60s they didn’t have soup kitchens to the extent that they have now.

“So you do what you have to do.”

Things took a turn when he returned home not long after his experience on the streets of the nation’s capital. Thibault was hitchhiking out west, but stopped at home to visit his parents.

He found work on the Royal Canadian Air Force Base in North Bay as a labourer, but was intrigued by the fellows parading around in their uniforms.

“I was down in a hole with a shovel,” he said. “I found out you only needed Grade 10 to join the air force. So I did.”

It turned into 10 years as a supply tech, and also helped him parlay his experience into more education and a job with the federal government after he left the service.

Thibault moved to Cornwall in the 1980s and for a time helmed the local employment insurance office. His political life began eight years ago when he made the decision to run for council - and a promise to himself that if he was fortunate enough, he’d stay two terms only.

“Eight years makes you grow older by 16 years,” he laughed. “They don’t let presidents go more than eight years, why would they let councillors go more than eight years? They should have term limits.”

Thibault’s time around the council table has been measured in dollars. During budget deliberations often questioned department heads on anything and everything - saving many of his

more pointed questionw for outside agencies petitioning for public money.

“One of the things being a street kid does, if you’re on the street in a cardboard box, your back is always to the wall,” he said. “So you learn quickly that you can’t back up. As a result, it’s natural for me to take on issues and not back up.

“Every once in a while my temper has surfaced and I don’t apologize for that. It’s probably one of the things that allows me to move forward on certain issues where otherwise I would back off.”

But what about the suggestion by critics that he’s nickeled and dimed the budget process at times? “Nickel and diming may be a perception by people,” he concedes. “But nickels and dimes make dollars and when you are looking at a budget of $150 million what you need to be doing is making sure those dollars are spent properly.”

Thibault made fiscal responsibility his mantra, but also took on other issues during his time as a councillor. The city’s economic development strategic plan has his fingerprints all over it. So does a renewed commitment by the city to address arts and culture issues.

And, as a fellow who measures his age in multiple decades, Thibault has worked hard with members of local seniors groups to address issues. Most recently, the Cornwall Senior Citizens Club on Pitt Street had a drainage issue concerning the parking lot at their building. Water would

Denis Thibault is the only city council member who decided against running in the 2014 election. often pool and freeze in the winter, leading to concerns about falling. Thibault helped gain the group access to programming that not only fixed the drains, but got a new elevator installed.

He’s hoping that as time unfolds, more people, especially those not quite as old as he and others around the table, will look at civic duty and consider taking up the torch.

“One of the things that I’m pleased to see is we have a lot of younger candidates…from my perspective that’s a good sign,” he said of the looming election. “One of the things we need to focus on is getting more young people involved.

“You don’t want to have a full council of older individuals. You need to have that mix. It allows for the transfer of experience.”

Confidential agreement broken, city must pay union members TODD LIHOU todd.lihou@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - A city councillor has breached a confidentiality agreement concerning municipal works employees who were disciplined last year.

A highly-placed source told Seaway News an arbitrator has ruled the city must pay $1,500 each to four employees by way of compensation, after Coun. Andre Rivette made public comments last summer concerning the incident.

City CAO Norm Levac later confirmed the arbitrator’s decision and the award amount.

The source, who did not wish to be identified because they are not authorized to speak on the subject, could not get into specifics concerning the timing of the infraction, though Seaway News has confirmed it is related to media reports from last summer.

In late August last year the StandardFreeholder ran a story quoting Rivette who at

the time confirmed five employees in the city’s municipal works department had been fired, but that two were returning.

In the same article Rivette railed against the city for having confusing rules when it comes to the use of municipally-owned vehicles for personal use.

RIVETTE In an interview Thursday with this newspaper Rivette was forthright.

“If there was a clause like that in there, either I didn’t know, or I didn’t care,” he said. “The secrecy has to stop.”

Rivette, who recently won re-election by 427 votes to reach the 10th and final council spot, campaigned on a promise of more openness at city hall.

“I am not going to abide by something that administration signed, tying my hands,” he suggested.

But it appears in this case his comments will cost the city some money, a total of $6,000.

The incident began in 2013 when the city dismissed a collection of municipal works employees in a case of time theft. The punishment was grieved by the Canadian Union of Public Employees, and a settlement was reached. The settlement included a confidentiality agreement.

Two of the employees returned to work, while the balance chose to retire.

But, the public comments in August, 2013 made by Rivette sparked the interest of the union, which filed a complaint and led to the arbitrator’s decision, a source confirmed.

City council is expected to be briefed on the file Monday night during its in-camera session.

City councillors who did not wish to be

named confirmed the Standard-Freeholder story sparked the ire of the arbitrator.

It is unclear how long the city has to pay the award.

The five individuals disciplined last year were sub-foremen, who oversee work completed by rank and file members of the municipal works department.

The city has not commented publicly on the dismissals, though last year CAO Norm Levac indicated, in response to general questions, that the corporation takes complaints surrounding time theft seriously.

In 2013 the City of Hamilton turfed nearly 30 employees in its public works department for time theft, neglect of duty and breach of trust.

Managers in that city used GPS installed in municipal vehicles to track the whereabouts of employees and launch an investigation.

Many Cornwall municipal vehicles, up to and including police cruisers, are outfitted with GPS units.

JAMMING FOR HOSPICE: Popular annual event continues to grow Roxanne Delage CORNWALL, Ontario - It began as a way to honour the memory of couple of friends, now the little jam that could has turned into a popular and growing annual event.

It all started in the summer of 2012, said Patti Edwards, the founder of Jamming for Hospice, whose friend, musician, Paul Herrington, had announced to her that he was ill, and expressed a desire to get back together with some former bandmates and have a jam, for old time sake.

As fate would have it, that jam would never happen.

Around that time Edwards was visiting another friend, who was in his last few days of life, at Cornwall Hospice.

From the loss of those two friends and in honour of their memory she founded the fundraiser, now in its third year and growing fast.

Last year’s event raised $2,500 Hospice, as

well as an additional $1,500 in support of another area musician, Dean Lapensée, who had been in the news, after having his legs and fingers amputated, when an illness left him in a coma, last year.

This year’s jam promises to be even bigger and better, with a variety of music styles to suit everyone’s taste, from classic rock 70s, 80s, country, folk, gospel, blues.

It all begins at 2pm, with an acoustic set, featuring a fabulous local line up, Jason Graveley and Patti Edwards, Carey B. Grant, Chuck Leclair, Randy Topin, Peter Fortin and others.

The volume gets bumped up later on with bands Rock Bottom, Front Row, Alison Wonderland and The Trevor Walsh Group.

The Canadian Online Radio Network will be broadcasting live from the even, and on the soundboard, will be Larry Sylvain. Kingstreet Percussion will provide the back line, as usual.

Fundraisers for Hospice are essential,

Pictured (L-R) Rene Martin, Kingstreet Percussion, event sponsor; Patti Edwards, event founder; Alison Hudson, Alison Wonderland, event emcee. In back (L-R) are Matt Mitschke, Rock Bottom; and Bob Lauzon, Front row. explained Edwards, who said that the facility receives limited funding from the government and must come up with an additional $750, 000 annually, to keep it running.

It’s a great time, said Edwards. “So many sponsors, musicians and volunteers, it’s wonderful.”

The 3rd annual Jamming for Hospice will take place on Sunday, Nov. 16, starting at 2pm, at The Agora Centre (formerly Nativity Hall), 301 McConnell Ave. Cornwall, ON. Tickets are $20 in advance (until Nov. 8) or $25, at the door. For further information call Patti Edwards at 613-551-0110.

before completing its journey at the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 297.

Terry Muir, one of the organizers of the event, said the parade is a great way to build community spirit in advance of the holidays, following the solemnness of Remembrance Day. “Last year we had such a great turnout,” he said. “It’s so encouraging to see so many smiling faces from people.” The parade caps off an all-day celebration in Cornwall’s downtown. Children aged six to 14 will fill Pitt Street for a huge outdoor hockey tournament.

The Kinsmen Club of Cornwall is once again organizing a three-on-three hockey tournament to take place on what is normally a busy city street.

Pitt, from First to Third streets, will be shuttered and dozens of local young people are invited to submit a team to take part in the tournament.

Following last year’s success, organizers are creating divisions this year to allow for children to compete against teams in their own age group. Much like minor hockey, children will face off against each other in sixeight, nine-10, 11-12 and 13-14 divisions.

To participate, volunteer or sponsor, visit www. sshc.weebly.com. TC Media and Seaway News are proud sponsors of the event. Also, the Downtown Business Improvement Area is offering a chance to win

$1,000 worth of merchandise from local businesses.

While downtown, stop by Drake International at 226 Pitt Street between noon and 4 p.m. to pick up your ballot for a chance to win prizes from Alpine Interiors, Bicycle World, Caveman Strong, Drake International, Fantasy Realm, Footmed, Jasmar, Pommier Jewellers, Spinners, Studio 101, Schnitzels and more.

Each of the participating businesses will have a sign posted during Parade Day with their station number.

Correctly match five businesses and their station number to qualify for the draw.

Ballot sheets must be handed in to the Drake International office located at 226 Pitt Street by 5 p.m.

A random draw will take place shortly thereafter from the qualifying ballots.

The winning ballot will be called in directly to Santa himself and the winner’s name will be posted on Santa’s Float for all to see.

Santa will be at Pommier Court from 10am to 1pm where kids can get a free photo with Santa. Also, a laser show will be featured from 5pm to 7pm with free fluorescent gifts for the kids handed out by the Pommier staff. Also, there will be free hot chocolate at Love Love Foods.

The funds go towards client services such as assistance with air conditioning and mobility equipment, monthly alarm care fees, and homemaking costs.

Cornwall resident Marc Villeneuve was diagnosed with MS a decade ago. The disease has confined him to a wheelchair - a cost that was partially funded by Cornwall’s MS Society.

“It’s expensive to be disabled - the items aren’t cheap,” said Villeneuve. “The government helps, but they don’t cover everything. So we need help from the MS Society.”

He isn’t just a client either. Villeneuve’s on the board of directors and is a facilitator for the support group as well.

“This event is a great chance for me to get out and socialize,” he said. “Plus I get to thank everyone for supporting the cause.”

Co-organizers Hickman and Burns were ecstatic with the turnout; before the doors opened at 10 a.m. a massive line-up coiled into the orchard’s parking lot.

Originally, the idea was to change the charity of choice on an annual basis. The first recipient was the

CORNWALL, Ontario - Thousands flocked to the Trunk Sale & Pamper Me Party amongst the apple trees at Marlin Orchards on Nov. 2, to shop for a cause.

Weaving in and out of rows of vendors with a variety of wares so diverse it would put most shopping plazas to shame, while aromas of specialty desserts, all natural honey, and massage oils wafted throughout the merchant booths, it was easy to see why this event is one of the area’s most anticipated.

We 3 Girls and Co. - Julie Hickman, Debbie Burns, Nancy Sylvester, and Tony Lacroix - were pleased to see their one-of-a-kind vendor fair expand into a local tradition. In its fifth edition, already $40,000 has been raised for the MS Society Cornwall & District chapter. A number that’s about to grow once this year’s amount is announced.

Each shopper paid a $5 entry fee which goes directly to the charity and every vendor donated 10 per cent of their sales.

Karen Torrie-Racine, local MS office manager, said the Trunk Sale collected over $15,000 last year.

“Fortunately we’ve been their charity of choice.

School needs your help to renovate its yard Todd Lihou todd.lihou@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - The students at St. Columban’s School in Cornwall want some grass in their yard - and they need your help to get it.

The school has been chosen by Aviva Insurance to take part in a community fund to help beautify the property at its Augustus Street locale.

The school is in the running for thousands of dollars to help offset the cost of turning the barren concrete and asphalt that dominates the yard into a lush, green landscape.

But the school is not alone in petitioning Aviva for funding.

As part of the community fund project, the school is up against other worthy submissions

that want to take advantage of the same funding pot.

People can vote online for the St. Columban’s project at www.avivacommunityfund.org/ ideas/acf19864.

Meghan Henry, a Grade 1 teacher at the school, said the children are desperate for some grass in the school yard.

“It’s what they really want,” she said, adding some have approached her to suggest tripping and scraping one’s knee on a grassy field is more desirable than the hard asphalt that currently exists.

There are just a few days for votes to be collected. If St. Columban’s is successful in this round of voting, it will be on to the semifinals and more voting, before spots are determined for the final round and cash is doled out.

St. Columban’s teacher Meghan Henry and student Eric Brisebois show off the barren landscape that is the school yard.

OPINION

Rivette’s comments were great - just make sure I don’t have to keep paying for them Todd Lihou

(part of a larger municipal layoff ), has made no bones about the fact that he wants more openness at city hall.

Taking a page out of Mayor-elect Leslie O’Shaughnessy’s playbook, Rivette has suggested the city needs to employ more transparency when dealing with the public.

To that end, he shelved the confidentiality agreement signed last year and went public with his opinions.

And the best part of it, he isn’t turtling a year later – Rivette is sticking to his guns.

The good: it’s a refreshing change to see a city councillor openly discuss his opinions, regardless of the hot water it could create.

All too often in this business we go after public officials, almost begging them to offer up something more than the standard clichés that get attached to stories emanating from city hall.

Or worse, the dreaded no comment.

Rivette should be applauded for his critique (though some city officials have privately suggested to me it was a rant) that cast a spotlight on what he feels are some deficient municipal policies, and the unfair treatment of some employees.

Word around the campfire is many administrators, whom Rivette called out in general terms in comments made to me last week, are wondering what this new city council will be like to work with in the future.

Will councillors, hell bent on openness and transparency, toss aside confidentiality agreements and in-camera memos even more now that Rivette has opened the door?

Admin-types close to retirement might just

todd.lihou@tc.tc

Say what you will about Andre Rivette, he’s kept his word.

The veteran city councillor who was returned to office by the skin of his teeth (he finished in 10th place, 427 votes ahead of fan favourite Guy St-Jean) got the city in some hot water when he opened his mouth in a story published by our friends at the StandardFreeholder last year.

Rivette railed against the city for having confusing rules when it comes to the use of municipal vehicles for personal use (like taking them home for lunch).

It was part of a larger report, which we followed here at Seaway News, on a collection of municipal works employees who got turfed last year in a case of so-called time theft.

Time theft, in case you missed the memo, basically boils down to not doing any actual work while you’re supposed to be on the job.

The union in this case filed a grievance and both sides entered into an agreement. Two of the individuals caught up in the case served a suspension and returned to work, while the balance retired.

Oh yah – all parties also signed a confidentiality agreement to never talk publicly about this again.

Unless, of course, you’re a city councillor with an axe to grind.

Rivette, whom many have suggested to me is still smarting after being asked to part ways with the city several years ago when he was a staffer in the parks and recreation department

be counting the days until they can escape such incidents, if they come to pass.

Which brings me to the bad: Rivette’s comments cost the city some money.

To be fair, it’s not very much. An arbitrator ruled recently that Rivette’s actions are punishable to the tune of $6,000 - $1,500 each to four union members caught up in the discipline of last year.

With a city budget measured in the tens of millions, 6,000 bucks measures somewhere between zip and zilch in the grand scheme of things.

But, it’s taxpayer money that could have

easily been spent somewhere else, instead of padding the bank accounts of union people who were miffed.

This is the area that could quickly get Rivette and others around the council table in trouble with tight-fisted taxpayers who are tired of the wild spending at city hall.

In other words, city council, be careful with how you tread in the future. I’m all for writing more stories like the one we broke last week on the Rivette comments.

But not if it’s going to cost us money week after week. A couple of times a year, though, is just fine. :)

All’s well in South Stormont Dear editor: To say the election campaign in South Stormont caught the attention of constituents and outsiders alike would be an understatement.

It was lively and sometimes acrimonious as each of the candidates did their best to convince voters they should be the elected member of choice.

Not lost, as the campaign unfolded, was the apparent interest in South Stormont’s electoral future by an online site and the editor of a local publication. As I reviewed both the web-messaging and print editorializing, and if I were a cynic, I might have been led to conclude there was a move afoot to fuel the acrimony and perhaps, shift the outcome. But — far be it for me to be a cynic.

What these media seem to have underestimated as they followed the campaign was that the citizens of South Stormont are far wiser and more perceptive than they were given credit for.

Happily, the election results unquestionably made that wisdom and perception abundantly clear.

So now, we move on with a blend of seasoned veterans and enthusiastic rookies who will direct the affairs of one of the leading municipalities in the United Counties. South Stormont is flourishing and will no doubt continue to do so, and all of us wish the new Mayor and Council good governance and progressive thinking.

OPINION

Duffy would do it all over again Claude McIntosh

BEST TO WORKOUT

However, some 11th hour intervention by Mayor Bob Kilger and Coun.-elect Mark McDonald rectified the problem and D’Alessio got to vote at city hall. The streak is intact.

SEEN AND HEARD Good for the Trenton legion folks for reporting to police a stolen poppy donation box. Hard to believe but there are some narrow-minded branches that won’t report stolen donation boxes because they think it will harm poppy sales. Not so. The news coverage boosts sales. ... Cornwall native Jack Miller, sports director with Quinte Broadcasting in Belleville, was re-elected to his third term on Belleville city council. There was a Miller for Mayor push earlier in the year but the popular radio personality decided to seek a third term as a councillor.

Miller, who has called the Belleville Bulls games since 1981, has been at the station for 40 years. ...

The cloak of secrecy thrown over the sudden “retirement” of Upper Canada District School Board Director of Education Dave Thomas is nothing short of amazing. Three months after the fact and nothing has leaked out. ... Veteran councillor Glen Grant, defeated in the Oct. 27 election, hopes to continue serving the community on a lay committee, preferably the waterfront committee.

ROUND AND ‘BOUT Johanne Baril, daughter of Cornwall Coun. Denis Thibault, is the new mayor of Val Rita-Harty (near Kapuskasing). She unseated incumbent Laurier Bourgeois who had held the job for 25 years. ... When it comes to tenure, Andre Rivette will become the dean of city council. It’s a good bet he will continue as a council rep on the police services board. ... Angelo

... and lUxURiaTE! TREADCLIMBER

Lebano once described himself the “dean” of council. Francis Guindon quickly proclaimed himself the “senior dean.” Each had 25 years service but Guindon’s tenure was consecutive.

IN THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR When the Cornwall Minor Hockey Association had 1,400 kids registered in the house league program and games were played on three outdoor rinks at the Athletic Grounds. The registration fee was $5 a kid and a hockey stick cost 75 cents, and you wore hand-me-down skates. Only the “rich” kids wore hockey pants. Referees and timekeepers volunteered their time. Championship games were played at the Water Street Arena and a big end-of-season banquet was put on at the Cornwall Armoury. Head table guests included star pro athletes who didn’t charge appearance fees. ... When NHL superstars made $7,500 a season and held down summer jobs, and $2.50 got you a standing room ticket at the old Montreal Forum.

SPORTS STUFF China is lobbying to have a National Hockey League preseason game played in that not-exactly hockey mad country. Back in the 1990s, the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds made history when the squad travelled to China to play an exhibition game against a Chinese team. After the game the U of B. C. captain was asked what it was like to play the Chinese. He paused for a moment then announced, “Not sure, but we’ll probably want to play them again in a couple of hours.” ... The first batch of “Moe the Toe/Never My Dream” biography sold out but author Thom Racine, Moe’s son, says a new order is on its way.

www.cornwallseawaynews.com - Seaway News - Thursday, November 13, 2014 - 15

For 13 months Elburn Duffy had a front-row seat to the horrors and mass destruction of war, but when asked the question some 61 years later, he is quick with the answer. “Yes ... do it all over again.”

Duffy was one of 150 Cornwall and area young men, all volunteers, who fought in the Korean War. Six never came home.

The retired Domtar employee was just 21 when he landed in Korea with the 2nd Battalion, Royal Canadian Regiment (RCR). He soon found himself involved in fierce front-line fighting. A few months earlier, he didn’t even know where Korea was. During his time in country his view of the country was from fox holes and bunkers; always hungry, cold and tired. He recalls just two warm showers in 13 months.

Any lingering misgivings Duffy, 86, may have had about the carnage of the brutal war that ended with the signing of a tenuous truce were put to rest when he along with several other vets visited South Korea in 1987.

What he saw was a vibrant, prosperous, free country filled with people who haven’t forgotten the tremendous sacrifices made by Canadian and other United Nations soldiers. The difference between the South Korea he left in 1952 and post-war South Korea is night and day.

That is when he knew the sacrifices had not been squandered.

“The only building still standing (one South Korean city) when I left was the Imperial Palace,” said Duffy. “We (returning vets) saw a modern

country.”

He was touched by the decades old daily ceremony which sees South Korean school children place a flower on each grave in a Canadian war cemetery where one of his boyhood chums Don Steer, killed by a North Korean sniper New Year’s Eve 1951, is buried.

Time has not dulled the poignant images of starving, homeless people begging battle-hardened Canadian troops for food.

He can’t forget the faces of scrawny, filthy kids digging through garbage cans for scraps of food.

Despite orders not to do so, Duffy said the Canadians would give away clothes, candy and food to the starving kids.

The sight of homeless starving people, especially children, still haunts Duffy.

“That really bothered me,” he said. “Still does.”

And while his mother taught him to eat all his veggies, Duffy said he came home with a strong dislike of lima beans.

Seemed that every U.S. supplied can of C-rations doled out to the Canadians contained lima beans.

“Haven’t eaten one (lima bean) since Korea,” he laughed. “Can’t stand the thought of them.”

THIS AND THAT Gerry D’Alessio takes his civic duty to vote seriously. At 84, he has never missed voting in an election - municipal, provincial or federal. But that milestone almost came to an end on Oct. 27 when he showed up to vote in the Cornwall municipal election. The poll clerk claimed his apartment number didn’t exist and denied him his right to vote, despite the fact “I had all the documentation needed,” he said.

AverAge income tAx rAte 10%, perfect yeAr-round weAther Ecuador: Hottest new retirement destination for Canadians The trend is not new: each year, thousands of Canadians flee the cold and the snow, heading south to sun destinations for weeks or months at a time. But for the most part, only the most adventurous dare to take the next big step and acquire their own property outside of Canada.

GUIDANCE AND SUPPORT : KEY FACTORS

«Since 2010 we have helped hundreds of Canadians acquire a property on the Pacific coast of Ecuador», says M. Cormier, VP Sales and Marketing. «We are literally creating an entire seaside village. Of the 1,700 properties that

Mr. and Mrs. Oulianov from Gatineau, QC, recently purchased their property in HolaEcuador’s urban development.

«The ability to sign a Canadian contract was reassuring for us», indicates Mrs. Oulianov. «Furthermore, the HolaEcuador representatives here in Gatineau answered all our questions and helped us throughout the entire purchase process. The whole experience was very positive!»

GOOD TIME TO INVEST For now, Ecuador remains a relatively well-kept secret, but prices are rising quickly with the current real estate boom in the region. The Oulianovs wanted to act quickly and take advantage of the favourable market. «The development itself is spectacular - an endless beautiful beach, lots of parks and gardens, services available right on the site, and a ton of activities available in the region. We’re convinced that this will be a fantastic community in a secure and comfortable environment.»

The Canadian company HolaEcuador understood the challenges faced

by Canadian snowbirds and now facilitates the sun property acquisition process. After having visited Mexico, Costa Rica and Panama, company co-owners Yves Cormier and Gordon Poole chose Ecuador as the ideal location. The quality of the country’s infrastructure, incredible biodiversity, low cost of living, beautiful landscapes, accessible and modern healthcare system and year-round mild climate were the decisive factors.

we had available at the start of the project, only 700 remain unsold.

And now with the majority of the site infrastructure completed, home construction is ramping up quickly.»

quickly enough. Alternatively, you may find yourself making an appointment and rushing home, only to find that no one shows up.

Many people don’t like the idea of doing a real estate deal through an agent and feel that direct negotiation between buyers and sellers is more transparent and allows the parties to better look after their own best interest. This is probably true – assuming that both the buyer and seller in a given transaction are reasonable people who are able to get along. Unfortunately, this isn’t always an easy relationship.

What if you, as a buyer, like a home but despise its wood-paneled walls, shag carpet and lurid orange kitchen? If you are working with an agent, you can express your contempt for the current owner’s decorating skills and rant about how much it’ll cost you to upgrade the home without insulting the owner. For as you know, the owner’s late mother may have lovingly chosen the décor. Your real estate agent can convey your concerns to the sellers’agent. Acting as a messenger, the agent may be in a better position to negotiate a discount without ruffling the homeowner’s feathers.

A real estate agent can also play the“bad guy”in a transaction, preventing the bad blood between a buyer and seller that can kill a deal. Keep in mind that a seller can reject a potential buyer’s offer for any reason – including just because they hate his or her guts. An agent can help by speaking for you in tough transactions and smoothing things over to keep them from getting too personal.

5894992

The increase of services that help home buyers or sellers complete their own real estate transactions is relatively recent, and it may have you wondering whether using a real estate agent is becoming a relic a bygone era. While doing the work yourself can save you the significant commission rates many real estate agents command, for many, flying solo may not be the way to go – and could end up being more costly than a REALTOR’S® commission in the long run. Buying or selling a home is a major financial (and emotional) undertaking. Find out why you shouldn’t discard the notion of hiring an agent just yet.

A real estate agent’s full-time job is to act as a liaison between buyers and sellers. This means that he or she will have easy access to all other properties listed by other agents. Both the buyers’ and seller’s agent work full time as real estate agents and they know what needs to be done to get a deal together. For example, if you are looking to buy a home, a real estate agent will track down homes that meet your criteria, get in touch with sellers’ agents and make appointments for you to view the homes. If you are buying on your own, you will have to play this telephone tag yourself. This may be especially difficult if you’re shopping for homes that are for sale by owner.

Similarly, if you are looking to sell your home yourself, you will have to solicit calls from interested parties, answer questions and make appointments.

Keep in mind that potential buyers are likely to move on if you tend to be busy or don’t respond

HOME IMPROVEMENT

What’s old is new again in home decor ours and textures.

Frank recommends the new Easy GripStrip Installation to make this an easy DIY project.

All you need to do is lay this new flooring over old floors. No prep or messy glue required.

Carpeting While the brightly coloured shag carpeting of the 1970s has yet to make a comeback, the cost and comfort of wall–to–wall carpeting has kept this trend alive.

Frank says Canadians are no longer sticking to neutrals when it comes to carpeting – we’re getting more adventurous with colour again.

The new line of Martha Stewart Living carpets offers homeowners rich colours, patterns and textures. Bold browns, avocado greens and rich reds are a few examples of colours being introduced to the decorating world.

(NC)Vintage trends have been appearing everywhere in recent years; from the return of 60s fashion to cocktails, even slow cooking.

The cliche ‘what’s old is new again’ rings true more than ever when it comes to home decor.

Frank Turco, senior manager, trend and design, The Home Depot Canada, shares some of the biggest decor comebacks for the season and how to make them work in you r home: Mirrored Tile In the 80s, everything and anything that could be covered in mirror was – closet doors, ceilings, even entire walls.

While the trend has returned, Frank suggests combining the look of mirrored tiles with a standard tile to give the bathroom a sleek and sophisticated look.

Loving Linoleum – The vinyl and linoleum flooring that became popular in the 50s are both back and better then ever. Allure’s line of vinyl floors is available in a wide selection of col-

NEWS

Forty three years of Fighting Hunger and Feeding Hope Spotlight on the Agape Centre From a garage in Cornwall to a small center on McConnell Avenue to a 27,000 sq. ft. building on Fifth Street West. From a few families a week served to over 1,000 people each month.

From a small team of volunteers to a staff of 19. This organization has changed over the years, but hunger is still a reality in our community.

When Canada’s first food bank was formed in 1981, it was seen as a temporary solution to the problem of hunger – no one thought that 30 years food banks would still be required in our nation. The problem of hunger in Cornwall is no different. The working poor, children, families

with children, persons with disabilities, seniors and recipients of social assistance are all especially vulnerable. Many organizations celebrate existing for over 40 years, but for us, this milestone marks the sad reality that our services are still needed more than ever in the community.

I would like to take this opportunity to share a few of the most recent moments that we experience on a daily basis at the Agapè Centre: * helping a young mother with food, her husband had recently died of cancer and he was the sole financial provider for the family; * the smile on a gentleman’s face when we helped him with clothing for an upcoming job

interview, he came back to tell us he got the job at Company X (company name has been removed) and thanked us for our help; * the family who lost everything in a fire needing food and clothing; * the lady with 4 children desperately needing food, she had just left an abusive relationship, was staying with a friend but had no money for food; * the middle aged gentleman waiting to be accepted for Ontario Works benefits needing a hot meal, he looks for work every day and stops here for lunch using his meal card; * watching a mother’s face go from tears to a

smile when our client service manager tells her we have the formula and diapers she needs to take care of her baby.

Our building is more than just bricks and mortar. To the people and families who come here every day, it represents a safe place where they are treated with dignity, respect, and can depend upon us to receive the help they need. Please support our building campaign by making a donation to support the WITHIN THESE WALLS Building Campaign by contacting the Agapè Centre at 613.938.9297, donating online www. agapecentre.ca or mailing a cheque to Agapè Centre, 40 Fifth St. West, Cornwall, ON K6J 2T4.

“I don’t just want to build a pipeline, I want to build a life.”

My name is Erin and I’m a pipefitter. I really love my job, but often people in my industry have to leave their province to get steady work.

I’m excited about the prospect of the Energy East Pipeline project because it could mean a great job, closer to home. So not only would the opportunity help me build a career, but also give me the opportunity to put down roots closer to friends and family.

The more you know, the more the pipeline makes sense.

EnergyEastPipeline.com TransCanada is a Canadian company with over 60 years of experience building pipelines and power infrastructure safely and reliably. >5889036

SPELLING IS IMPORTANT! – Just because it sounds like a duck doesn’t mean it is a duck. It has to look like a duck too! The same applies to any language’s homonyms. (Photo by Nick Wolochatiuk)

Dancing with words can lead to stumbles Dancing With Words

Nick Wolochatiuk

nuthilltoo@gmail.com

It takes a lot of time, effort, practice and help to achieve command of a language. In my case, Ukrainian, not English, was my mother tongue. It wasn’t until I moved to Toronto at the age of almost five that I first heard English. That’s why it took me two years to get my grade one graduation ‘diploma’.

That’s also why I can identify with the following imaginary scenario.

Picture this. A recent immigrant asks a Canadian friend, “What does mean that word?”

“Sheer? That’s an easy word. It means so thin the light shines through it. You can almost see through it.”

“That make no sense. It not used that way by the other man.”

“Oh! He must have meant the other meaning, very steep, like what’s below the top of a cliff, like at Scarborough Bluffs that we visited last week.”

“No, no! Not like that either.”

That’s when I realized yet another of sheer’s various meanings were intended. “Sheer means complete, absolute, utter, as ‘arguing with a fool is a sheer waste of time.’”

“Still make no sense to me.”

Here! I’ll spell it for you, S-H-E-E-R, so I can show you how to find it in the dictionary.”

“No! No! I know how it be spelled. My friend he give me it spelled so I could ask you later.”

He thrust a wrinkled scrap of paper into my hand, saying “Man say he give me a job to work on the sheep at his farm. He ask me if I can do that work. I not know if I can, but I will ask you to explain to me.”

I glanced at the word. My work as a wordsmith for my friend had still not met his need, not yet made it possible to get that job at the Amherst Island sheep farm.

Learning the intricacies of a new language can be challenging. I found that out when I was trying to impress Helke, my new German girlfriend as we made our good-byes at her front door.

“Good nakt!” I said.

“No, no Nick!” she replied, eyes wide. “You must say ‘Gute Nacht!’ N-A-C-H-T, not N-A-K-T!”

Why Buy Winter Tires?

Carleton PlaCe Canadians Thursday, Nov.13, 7:30pm Ed LumLEy arENa

Four Colts headed to Toronto area all-star game

Tim Houle Auto Talk

Winter tires are one of the best ways to stay safe while driving in freezing weather. In fact in 2008, Quebec became the first province to legally require the use of winter tires during the winter months.

Not just for snowy roads, winter tires use special compounds to improve your traction, stopping and handling whenever the thermometer dips below 7°C/45°F. Regular all season tires lose elasticity when the temperature dips below 7°C/45°F. Winter tires are constructed with a special compound that allows them to retain more elasticity in cold temperatures.

Technologically engineered tread designs prevent snow build-up and improve ice and snow

traction—so you get a better grip on the road and better control of your vehicle.

Winter tires provide better control for all vehicles — cars, SUVs, pick-ups and light trucks — on snow and ice-covered roads.

Without winter tires you are more likely to fishtail on corners and spin out on that icy hill.

Deciding to switch it up a little this Remembrance Day, I researched games played in the NHL through the years on this special day.

I found that November 11th was a day reserved for an NHL first in 1943, while eventually becoming a day for snipers of a different variety by mid-century.

In 1943 as the Second World War raged in Europe, NHL goaltenders were being pulled for an extra attacker for the first time.

Clint Smith scored the first empty net goal in NHL history at 19:12 of the third period, after Bruins’ coach Art Ross pulled goalie Bert Gardiner giving Chicago a 6-4 win at Boston Garden. Does anyone every remember the Montreal Canadiens losing in Oakland. Seals goalie Gary Smith must, after his 8th career shut-out helped the Seals to a 2-0 win in 1970.

These were two pretty interesting finds, however searching for more Remembrance Day memories, I found that the day was one for goal scoring exploits. In 1958, Bruins Johnny Bucyk scored his second career hat trick and added two assists in an 8-4 win, at Chicago.

In 1973, Guy Charon, (you remember him, he was traded by Montreal to Detroit for Frank Mahovlich) recorded his 2nd career trick in a

5-4 win over Toronto.

In 1975, John Gould scored his second career hat trick and led the Canucks to a 3-2 win over Toronto and in 1978, Marcel Dionne picked up 3 goals in an 8-1 drubbing of the North Stars at the Fabulous Forum. It was Dionne’s 13 career three goal night.

Flyer’s Rick MacLeish notched hat trick number 11 and 550th point as the Flyers beat the Canucks 5-4 at the Spectrum. How about the Atlanta Flames Guy Chouinard scoring his second career hat trick in the Flames’ 7-3 win over the visiting New York Rangers in 1980 and on that same night, Mike Bossy actually scored four times for his 11th career hat trick in a 6-6 tie with the North Stars. One year later, Doug Jarvis scored a natural hat trick, the only hat trick of his career as the Habs beat the Rockies 9-0, at Colorado and the North Stars Bobby Smith scored four goals help Minnesota ground the Jets 15-2.

Lest we forget, the heroes who paved the way for nights like these. Lest we forget.

CORNWALL, Ontario - There was a bit of a scene, pun intended, on Monday morning, in Morrisburg, as tickets for the Upper Canada Playhouse’s 2015 season went on sale.

“The crowd started lining up at 7 am, to get their tickets for the new season,” said Donnie Bowes, artistic director of the Upper Canada Playhouse. “Box office packed, phone lines filled up and online bookings pouring in. Crazy but fun times for sure!”

The new season, featuring eight productions, is a passport to hilarious comedies, uplifting concerts, fascinating characters and unforgettable stories,” explained Bowes. “All of the shows have never before appeared on the Playhouse stage and are brand new to Playhouse audiences, with three of them being World Premieres.”

Kicking off, April 21 to 26, will be Oh, Canada, We Sing For Thee!, a blockbuster, live concert of the smash hits of Canada’s legendary artists, starring Leisa Way with her sensational singers and band.

The theatre’s flagship summer theatre series follows with Stag and Doe, by Mark Crawford, a hilarious look at small town weddings gone wrong, running June 11 to July 5, Next up, July 9 to August 2 is Hilda’s Yard, a

La compétition était très relevée et les coatchs devaient se choisir 9 candidats pour former leur équipe. À plusieurs reprises, les gyrophares s’allumaient après quelques secondes seulement car un ou plusieurs de ces coatchs voulaient ce candidat à tout prix dans son équipe.

Après chaque prestation, les 4 coatchs donnaient des commentaires très pertinents à chacun d’eux. Plusieurs ont été qualifiés de professionnels et leur coatch leur demandait même pourquoi il ou elle n’est pas en tournée présentement.

De l’avis de la majorité des participants, leur audition à l’aveugle de Propulse ta voix est un des plus beaux moments qu’ils ont vécu

Monica Brown et Ève Tremblay Élèves de la 6e année de l’école Rose des Vents

www.cornwallseawaynews.com - Seaway News - Thursday, November 13, 2014 - 39

Le vendredi 31 octobre, les élèves des deux classes de sixième année de l’école Rose des Vents ont organisé avec leurs enseignants , Mme France Sabourin et M. Robert Davidson, une journée tout à fait spéciale! Pour commencer cette journée hors de l’ordinaire, il y avait une énorme parade! Cette dernière nous permettait d’observer les costumes tous plus créatifs les uns que les autres. Dans les corridors, on a vu défiler des super-héros, des anges, des démons et des personnages épeurants. Il y avait aussi une splendide maison hantée faite par nos élèves de sixième année. Mais attention, pour y entrer ce n’était pas gratuit! Pour obtenir un laisserpasser, toutes les classes devaient avoir décoré leur porte. Nos portes avaient beaucoup de caractère! Il y avait des monstres, des « Minions » et même une porte en vampire … Bref, il y en avait de toutes les sortes!

Revenons à notre maison hantée! À l’intérieur de la maison, il y avait des décorations de fantômes, des personnages fous et même des zombies. De plus, les élèves de 6e eux-mêmes pouvaient y jouer un rôle.

Par exemple, Ève Tremblay a été une figurante. Elle était déguisée en Robin des bois. Il y avait aussi des guides pour amener les élèves à travers la maison.

Les élèves se sont beaucoup amusés! Pour les plus

Growing skills gap on the job front Ed Allard There is a growing gap between the job skills that employers need in their workplace and the skills that their existing employees possess. It can add challenges, particularly for small businesses that can face considerable training or education costs to keep up with changes in technology, new processes and new products. It can also be more challenging to find new hires with all the requisite skills, so some up-front training is needed for them as well.

To help address this, a new government program is currently being rolled out to help employers invest in their workforce. It’s called the CanadaOntario Job Grant. It provides direct financial support for businesses that need to purchase training for their employees or prospective new hires.

The level of support is up to $10,000 per employee for training costs. The federal and provincial governments plan to invest a total $192 million per year in this program over the next six years.

An eligible third-party trainer must deliver the education or training, so in-house training generally doesn’t apply. The training can be delivered through public-like colleges, recognized private trainers, union-based trainers or training offered by product vendors. It doesn’t have to occur here although there are a number of local training outlets that are eligible.

How it works is that the employer foots the bill for the training up front and the Job Grant program will rebate 'of that back to the employer, up to the $10,000 cap per employee. The employer must assume the remaining' of the cost. The employee or prospective new hire should not have to bear any training costs. In the case of new hires, the employer is committed to hiring them if they receive training under this program.

This is a valuable incentive for employers. But, employees and those seeking jobs get to share the benefit as well because they end up with the added skills that enable them to function better in their

jobs or to meet job requirements at no cost to them.

While employees can certainly discuss their training needs with their employer, individual employees cannot apply directly to this program.

It’s employer-driven, so it’s up to the employer to choose those employees for which he will apply.

Many local employers are already aware of the program and the Job Zone employment office here in Cornwall has already received a handful of applications. It is handling inputs for all of Stormont and Dundas counties and approves them here.

Glengarry County applications should be filed with the Glengarry Inter-Agency Group. Employers who wish to train more than 25 employees must file applications directly with the provincial government. These selections are made when preparing the application.

Municipal offices, school boards and hospitals are not eligible. The program is Ontario-based so applications from Cornwall Island can be accepted,

Food bank use in Canada climbing

40 -

le jeudi 13 novembre 2014 - Cornwall Expess - www.cornwallseawaynews.com

Opinion Column – Sultan Jessa Economists unanimously agree the recession in Canada ended several years ago. They also say we are still seeing delayed effects of the recession.

It is shocking and hard to believe that nearly a million Canadians are using food banks each month. A detailed report, made public by Food Banks Canada, emphasized that reliance on food banks across the country is steadily rising. This report should be a major concern to the federal, provincial and municipal governments as well as to all Canadians.

According to the report the upward trend

began in 2008 and shows no signs of reversing.

During the past seven years, there has been an average 25 per cent in reliance on food-based assistance in the 10 provinces and three territories.

We are talking about this trend not only in Cornwall but also in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.

Canada’s territories have seen the largest increase - a staggering 247 per cent - laying bare the lack of adequate food security in the North.

Authors of the report describe the latest finds as disturbing and disheartening.

Something has to change and change soon.

With no sign of the trend reversing, Ottawa and provinces have to find a solution to this.

I, for one, did not realize the extent of hunger’s reach in Canada.

The majority of people being helped include those on welfare, unemployed, retirees on fixed pensions and others living in rental housing. Many of those being helped are children and youth. The problem of hunger is a global phenomenon. Many employed people find the wages they earn are not sufficient to cover basic living essentials.

According to the Food Banks Canada report, one possible explanation for continuing rise in reliance among singles is that these people do not benefit from as many government programs as Canadians with children.

but those parts of Akwesasne outside of Ontario are also not eligible.

The government is also introducing two, new, employer-driven skills training pilots as an additional part of the Canada-Ontario Job Grant: Customized Training and UpSkill. These two Job Grant-funded skills training pilots will test different ways of working with employers to provide shortterm, flexible training targeted at workplace needs.

The objectives are to meet an employer’s unique needs, beyond his capacity to develop the training.

More information about the entire program as well as the necessary application forms are available on the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities website at http://www.tcu.gov.on.ca/ eng/eopg/cojg/index.html. Or questions can be fielded by the local employment offices.

Applications must be filed online and can be filed at any time. That is all done through the same website.

Food Banks Canada also report single people on welfare have not seen their monthly social assistance cheques increase with inflation.

Among recommendations made by Food Banks Canada to fight the disturbing trend is to establish new federal tax breaks to encourage construction of more affordable homes.

“For those who can’t work – government support are extremely low and have not evolved with a changing economy. And many Canadians are not able to access the training they need to qualify for well-paying jobs,” said Katharine Schmidt, executive director of Food Banks Canada.

There is some food for thought here.

COLDRIFT: It’s been a ‘Long Time Coming’ CORNWALL, Ontario - If a hard dose of rockand-roll is what you want, the old-school feel and heavy sound of Coldrift won’t disappoint.

The Cornwall foursome is premiering their music video ‘Long Time Coming’ at Vu NightSpot (113 1/2 Pitt Street) on Saturday, Nov. 22, at 8 p.m.

“The final product is beyond what I thought and expected,” said Jean Beaulieu, on lead guitar and vocals. “I’m excited for the launch.”

Directors Derrick Casselman and Matt West shot the video on an antique yacht in late July.

Besides their fans, expect to see cameos from Jordan Sien and crew, from Ride The Wake, as well as the 1000 Islands jet ski team.

Although the track is off their 2012 independent debut album ‘The Smoke After Sex,’ they’re working on a new 12-track offering.

“Right now we’ve got half the album written,” said Beaulieu. “There’s no set theme yet. The first album had a lot of variety on it, but this one will have a little more direction.”

Meet the rest of Coldrift: Marty Boutros (rhythm guitar and vocals), Matt Vachon (bass), and Daniel Gadbois (drums).

Former Fathom Ties members Vachon and Gadbois, who also drums for Cornwall rockfusion band BoozeHound, were able to pick up where they left off.

FT split after their big win at the Paragon Online.ca’s Band Clash 20/20 finals at the Opera

House in Toronto in 2009.

“I played guitar - and now I’m playing bass which is an awesome change,” said Vachon. “It’s a totally different style of music, it’s a little bit more mainstream.”

Alternatively, it’s a new experience for Boutros and Beaulieu despite playing guitar most of their lives.

“Our first show in front of an audience was at our record launch in 2012,” said Boutros.

Whether he’s performing live on stage or jamming in a garage, it’s about the excitement of creating something as a band.

But Gadbois, like Beaulieu, loves the energy of a crowd.

“It’s all about being in a live atmosphere, having the adrenaline from all the people watching you,” said Gadbois.

The band credited fellow rockers Winston Marley, Elly May, and Trench Town Oddities (TTO) for helping to make noise about the local music scene.

“We want to be ambassadors for Cornwall – go out there and play and get people to come back and see us in our hometown,” said Beaulieu.

But before they can start entertaining crowds in the region, as well as in Ottawa and Montreal, the band is building their brand and searching for proper management.

“It’s difficult to get out there and get gigs when there’s really nothing to show them. Once the video is out, that will give us a little bit of momentum,” said Beaulieu.

All four members enjoy crafting a song from

Coldrift: Dan Gadbois, Matt Vachon, Marty Boutros, and Jean Beaulieu. Adam Brazeau scratch as showcased in Long Time Coming, which belongs on a soundtrack for a high-speed chase on a sun-soaked highway.

“We’re not a cover act,” said Gadbois. “We get offers all the time to do these three-hour gigs, but it’s not what we want.”

The band has all their music available for free

on coldrift.com and SoundCloud.

“We sell the CDs for the hardcore fans,” said Beaulieu. “But going out to shows and buying the merchandise is how we get supported.”

The show kicks off with Elly May at 8:15 p.m. and the video will play several times throughout the night.

Did you know … In late fall, wildlife like snakes and female bumblebees head to dens or underground holes to nap away the winter.

Smaller animals, like chipmunks, can’t stuff their mouths enough to produce the amount of fat they’d need to hibernate. Instead, these animals called torpors, pack their dens with food and snooze the winter away, waking only to snack.

Some insects rely on their developmental stages to tide them over. Grasshoppers and crickets, for instance, lie dormant in their egg stage throughout the winter, while butterflies, moths and some wasps snuggle in grey or brown cocoons for the season.

Can’t believe the middle aged lady trick or treating in a Long Sault neighbourhood with not only one bag but two! Everyone expected some explanation as to whom she was collecting for as she held out her bags, but none came. We were so dumbfounded by this woman most of us gave her something but next year this won’t be the case. Many neighbours were so disgusted with her visit they shut their lights off minutes later as the reality what just occurred sunk in. Furthermore, even though she was dressed in her cultures traditional clothing, it shouldn’t have been considered a Halloween costume. Shame on you!

Diehard fans of Gordon Lightfoot who have been holding their breath since promotions rolled out in January can breathe a collective sigh of relief. The music legend will finally take the Aultsville Theatre stage on Nov. 21.

Kudos to Gerry Samson for taking time to pay tribute to his father Monday night. At his final council meeting, Samson asked to switch spots with coun. Syd Gardiner, so that he could sit in the same seat his father occupied for years around the council table. Good on Gardiner for agreeing to the switch, too.

On the first day of school, the children brought gifts for their teacher. The supermarket manager’s daughter brought the teacher a basket of assorted fruit.

The florist’s son brought the teacher a bouquet of flowers.

The candy-store owner’s daughter gave the teacher a pretty box of candy.

Then the liquor-store owner’s son brought up a big, heavy box. The teacher lifted it up and noticed that it was leaking a little bit. She touched a drop of the liquid with her finger and tasted it.

“Is it wine?” she guessed. “No,” the boy replied. She tasted another drop and asked, “Champagne?”

“I know, I’ll bet it’s Scotch, isn’t it”?

“No,” said the little boy … “It’s a puppy!”

I urgently needed a few days off work, but, I knew the Boss would not allow me to take leave. I thought that maybe if I acted ‘Crazy’ then he would tell me to take a few days off. So I hung upside-down on the ceiling and made funny noises.

My co-worker asked me what I was doing.

I told her that I was pretending to be a light bulb so that the Boss might think I was ‘Crazy’ and give me a few days off.

A few minutes later the Boss came into the office and asked, ‘What in the name of goodness are you doing?’

I told him I was a light bulb.

He said, ‘You are clearly stressed out.’ Go home and recuperate for a couple of days.’

I jumped down and walked out of the office...

When my co-worker (the blonde) followed me, the Boss asked her, ‘..And where do you think you’re going?!’

She said, ‘I’m going home, too. I can’t work in the dark.
