Editor, While your recent editorial about locating the Amazon logistics centre at Cornwall has merit, Ottawa’s economic development department is also competing for Amazon to locate at Kanata.

The sheer size of qualified staff that Amazon would need could require that buses carry employees from the Ottawa area to Cornwall.

Several years ago, a regular daily return bus service carried employees from east of the Quebec border to a Cornwall-based call centre.

If Amazon establishes at Ottawa, there may be opportunity to organize a commuter bus to carry employees from Cornwall via Hwy’s 401 and 416 to and from Kanata.

One possible option for Cornwall may involve a multi-level hydroponic greenhouse with an adjacent industrial size refrigeration plant. The greenhouse could grow vegetables intended to be frozen and sold in supermarkets. To reduce energy consumption and the cost of produce, both facilities may need to connect to geothermal heating and cooling.

Cornwall has a deep level swamp right in the middle of the industrial park and the deep level groundwater could be used for geothermal energy purposes.

During summer, an industrial refrigerator that is cooled by cold groundwater consumes a fraction of the energy of an equivalent refrigerator cooled by hot summer air. During winter, a greenhouse heated geothermally by heat pump connected to warm groundwater consumes a fraction of the energy of an equal size of greenhouse heated by oil, natural gas or by direct electric heat. During summer, there may be scope to use solar thermal reflector technology to heat some deep level groundwater to sustain winter temperature inside a nearby greenhouse.

The deep level groundwater below the Cornwall swamp is under the jurisdiction of the Ontario Ministry of the Environment and their decision could determine the possible future establishment of a multi-level greenhouse at Cornwall.

Glitz and glamour for Great Gatsby Gala Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - The Cornwall Community Hospital Foundation (CCHF) is launching a new annual fundraiser party that will transform the Nav Centre.

The Great Gatsby Gala will be a throwback to the 1920s with costumes, dancing and jazz music.

The event will be held on Saturday, Oct. 21 and all proceeds raised by the event will go to support the hospital’s new Centre for Addiction and Mental Health.

Tickets are $90 each, or $85 each if they are bought as a group of four. Tickets are available at the Scotiabank on Brookdale Ave., at the CCHF office at the hospital, or online at cornwallhospitalfoundation.ca .

The event will be a dip back in time, says CCHF Executive Director Amy Gillespie.

“People are getting really excited,” she said.

“They’re saying they’ve been going online and looking for costumes.”

Guests are not required to come in costume, but for those who want to look their retro best, Andre Pommier of Pommier Jewellers has a few tips. “Pearls and diamonds are in,” he said. “In the twenties, pearls and diamonds were huge. They all had long pearls. People love the roaring twenties, there was so much excitement.”

Thanks to Pommier, one lucky person will leave the party with some extra glamour. Pommier Jewellers has donated a ring valued at $6, 700 as a prize to be given away at the gala.

The ring is made of white and rose gold, it is covered in diamonds with a special diamond set in the middle that has 150 facets in honour of Canada’s 150th anniversary.

The ring is a part of a his-and-hers prize package that also includes a state-of-the-art Traeger Grill. The ring and grill will be given away through

a raffle. Raffle tickets will be available for purchase soon and will be $10 each or $20 for four.

It promises to be a fun filled evening at the Nav Centre and Chef Luc McCabe is preparing a huge and delicious tableaux inspired by popular dishes from the 1920s.

For those guests who do not want to worry about having a ride home, Uptown Kia is offering a shuttle service to and from Cornwall. Also, the Nav Centre will be offering reduced room rates for guests who want to spend the night. For more information call 613-936-5800 or email reservations@navcentre.ca.

Last bank in the East End moving out Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - In an announcement made this week, the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) branch at the Eastcourt Mall on Second St. will be moving out at the beginning of 2018.

The bank made the announcement on Sept.

11 and started mailing notices to branch customers that the branch would be moving as of Jan. 19, 2018 to Cornwall’s main RBC branch site on Pitt St.

The consolidation of the two branches will not result in any lost jobs according to Sylvie Perreault, the Branch Manager at the Second St. site. RBC did address concerns regarding the move in an email to Seaway News.

“We recognize that this may cause some inconvenience to our clients and employees and appreciate your questions in regards to this,” wrote Mike Belliveau, Regional Vice President, Eastern Ontario. “To answer, what will happen to the patrons; all accounts will be automatically transferred to the Cornwall Main branch and

account numbers and cheques will not change.”

Belliveau went on to address concerns about what clients who do not have online bank accounts should do now that their branch is further away.

“To answer, If they don’t have online banking where should they go,” he said. “We plan on hosting Advice Events that will support clients with options that they have, beyond this we encourage all clients to come in to see an advisor so that we can address their unique needs and concerns on a one to one basis.”

Belliveau stated that the bank made the decision in response to the evolving market.

“Decisions like these are made after careful consideration of how we can best serve our clients in the market,” he said. “Over the years, as consumer banking habits have evolved, we’ve evolved how we show up in the community.”

He went on to say that RBC will continue to maintain a presence in Cornwall and will continue to support local events such as the Olympic Torch Run and the RBC Cup.

AKWESASNE, Ontario - The Upper Canada District School Board is pleased to announce that an accredited teacher and community leader from the Akwesasne Territory will serve as Indigenous Trustee with the Upper Canada District School Board.

Ryan Jacobs, a sitting member of the Mohawk Council, will be sworn in on September 13 at the first School Board meeting of the new school year. He will replace former Indigenous Trustee Peter Garrow, who retired on August 31st after more than a decade of dedicated service on the Board of Trustees.

The 36-year-old community leader serves in the education portfolio with the Council, acting as a liaison with the Director of the Ahkwesahsne Mohawk Board of Education (AMBE) to ensure the education system best serves the needs of students in the Territory. Trustee Jacobs is one of 13 chiefs on the Mohawk Council.

Jacobs says he looks forward to his new role.

“I think it’s a great opportunity to work with the outside communities,” he said on Thursday.

“The more I can learn about how everything works in the outside territories, in addition to the knowledge I already have from serving the AMBE, it will benefit the community where I come from. I hope to ensure we get more services and equivalent services. I think that in building those bridges we can all work together.”

Trustee Jacobs is a graduate of the School of Education and Professional Studies at the State University of New York Potsdam. He served as a teacher in academic support for students in AMBE, and also worked for the Massena Central School District. Despite a busy schedule, Jacobs also finds time to organize a softball league in the Territory and coaches minor lacrosse.

“We are very much looking forward to working with Trustee Jacobs in the important role our Board has in educating Indigenous students within our District,” said Chair Jeff McMillan. “As an educator and member of the Mohawk Council, Trustee Jacobs will bring a unique and qualified perspective to the role.”

Lost Villages unveil Civil War monument Alycia Douglass alycia.douglass@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - The Lost Villages Historical Society memorialized the 40,000 Canadians who participated in the American Civil War, unveiling their highly anticipated monument this Saturday, Sept. 16.

A project which began three years ago with the Grays and Blues of Montreal and the Township of South Stormont finally came to fruition this weekend. Numerous patrons came out in celebration of an often-overlooked part of Canadian history which will be preserved in the heart of the Lost Villages.

“Over the past three years, we’ve had numerous reenactments, which wouldn’t have been possible without our wonderful group of Civil

War reenactors,” said Jim Brownell, President of the Lost Villages Historical Society.

Between 1861 and 1865 approximately 40,000 Canadians fought in the American Civil War. Roughly 8, 000 men were killed or wounded and 29 Canadians received the Medal of Honor; all of whom were named and honoured on the monument.

“A lot of us forget about our heritage,” said South Stormont’s Mayor Jim Bancroft. “But in preserving it, we learn more about who we are, and where we were.”

With a wine and cheese gathering following the unveiling, people had a chance to get a good look at the monument, socialize, as well as explore the museum facilities, which were open to public for the occasion.

South Stormont fire station grand opening Handout from Township of South Stormont SOUTH STORMONT, Ontario - Council, Fire Chief Gilles Crepeau, South Stormont’s Fire and Rescue personnel, township staff and members of the public celebrated the grand opening of the newly constructed Station 4 in St. Andrews West. The new fire station provides the residents of South Stormont with a brand new modern facility for the purposes of fire and emergency response.

The Township of South Stormont ratepayers funded the entire facility and it is within the

2017 budget approval at a cost of $1.7 million.

The new St. Andrews West Fire Station includes features such as the three-door apparatus bay with a drive through feature, a large paved parking area, a provincially mandated storm water management pond, and facilities to accommodate an occupancy rating of 50 persons for events such as public meetings and other community and social functions.

South Stormont completed a Fire Master Plan in January, 2016. The approved Plan provided a strategic framework to assist Council in making decisions for the provision of fire protection and emergency services; the location

and functionality of each of the South Stormont fire stations was included in the Master Plan.

“The Station 4 build provides us with a solid and forward approach for future South Stormont fire station replacements or renovations. We are very pleased with this new facility”, said Mayor Bancroft. Fire Chief Crepeau stated, “I am thrilled to have been a part of the process for the construction of the new station, the Township’s flagship station. This project has been several years in the making and is the result of a team of companies and individuals who have contributed to its success. To have a project of this size, on time and on budget, is a testament to all those

involved including A-49, WSP, Grant Marion Construction, Director of Public Works Ross Gellately, Administration, Council, as well as all South Stormont Firefighters. The residents of South Stormont have a fabulous new facility and a state of the art fire station of which we can all be extremely proud.”

Photos of the new fire station, including construction phases, can be found on the Township’s website. It is anticipated that an Open House will be scheduled during Fire Prevention Week in October to further display the new fire station located at Civic #5205 Provincial Highway 138, South Stormont.

Serving the financial needs of the East End 42837_PUB_STBURGER_JULY2017_SEAWAY_CORNWALL.indd 1

Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – Last week saw the announcement from the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) that they were closing their branch in the East End of Cornwall at the Eastcourt Mall. While this does mark the departure of the last bank in that area of town, there is still a financial

institution serving the needs of residents and it is growing.

Your Credit Union, formerly Howard Smith Credit Union has been in the city for 65 years. In recent years, it has opened a branch on Glengarry Plaza, there is a branch on Second St. West and it has a kiosk in the Cornwall Community Hospital.

A credit union offers many of the same services as a bank, but with an important difference,

all of its customers are also shareholders in the credit union. A one-time payment of $5 entitles customers to use the services at Your Credit Union and attend their Annual General Meeting.

Your Credit Union is the only financial institution in Cornwall East of Pitt St., and it has seven ATMs across the city, so their customers’ money is always accessible.

While banks like RBC are consolidating, Your

2017-07-27 2:08 PM

Credit Union is growing. In addition to their newly opened branch in Glengarry Plaza, they have also added six full-time jobs. Like a bank, a credit union is accountable to their shareholders, except in their case, their shareholders are all of their customers and members. Anyone can be a member at Your Credit Union as long as they have $5 and in exchange members have access to banking services right in their community.

We’ve had your back for over 60 years WE WELCOME NEW MEMBERS

Because we are owned by our members, we exist to make them money rather than make money from them. We would welcome the opportunity to show you the strength of ownership: • Lowest fees and rates possible • #1 mobile banking app in North America • Best Banking Award for customer service 13 years running • An abiding commitment to the Cornwall community

• Higher returns on investments • Over 3,500 fee-free ATMs across Canada • Profit sharing, not profit taking

Your Credit Union is extremely proud of our history of service to the people of Cornwall. Only YCU has three branches in the city and, with the departure of RBC from Eastcourt Mall, we are now the only financial institution east of Pitt street. .

OPINION

Composition of Council should remain the same Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

Council recently talked about if and how it should be reshaped. First there must be a public consultation, but given the thorough report presented by administration, I don’t see any need in reducing the number of faces around the table.

The report outlined that are similar in size and provide similar services to the City of Cornwall have similarly numbers of councillors.

Brockville, with a population of over 21, 000 people has nine councillors. North Bay at over 51, 000 people has 11 councillors and Quinte West at around 43, 000 people has 13 councillors. So Cornwall, with around 47, 000 and 11 councillors is par-for-the-course.

Additionally, the reported outlined that there are 53 committees, boards, and commissions that Council has committed to be represented on for a total of 110 seats to fill by 11 councillors. This adds up to around 275 hours per year for each councillor, or for at

least each councillor who regularly attends all of their committee commitments.

If Council were reduced by just one member, the work for the remaining 10 would increase by 27 hours per year.

What does 11 councillors cost us for 275 hours per year of work? Around $22, 930 a year, each. That’s less than minimum wage, which could be prohibitive for someone who wants to run for council, but also needs to hold down a full-time job. If the size of Council is reduced, then Councillors would have to spend more time away from their regular jobs and families. I’m not intentionally trying to paint a sympathetic picture of our council, but it has to be stated that the cost of $22,930 a year for a councillor will actually increase if council is reduced and their workload increased. How much money would actually be saved by cutting councillors?

Carilyne Hébert brought up a good point during discussion on this issue. She pointed out that reducing the number of council members could also hurt the diversity of

council. I believe that diversity of backgrounds is important, especially for a governing body like a City Council. Diverse opinions and perspectives can bring a wider range of possibilities to the table.

Ultimately, a few councillors made it clear that they were in favour of a possible

referendum on the issue. Despite my view that Council should remain the same I think a referendum on this issue is a good idea. It will make a statement as to how the City feels about the work its Council is doing and get other issues, like whether or not to move to a ward system, settled.

people are suffering.

Myanmar’s military says it is fighting militants.

But, thousands who are fleeing talk about extreme violence, rape, burnings and dodging landmines.

Bangladesh is already home to hundreds of thousands of Rohingyas who have fled previous outbreaks of violence.

The fleeing refugees desperately need food, water, shelter and medical help.

However, hardly any world leaders are talking about this.

There have, however, been protests in several Muslim-majority nations.

A spokesman for the United Nations said what is happening in Myanmar is a “textbook example of ethnic cleansing.”

The UN also described earlier security operations as possible “crimes against humanity.”

A statement from the White House urged Myanmar’s to “respect the rule of law” and stop the violence.

But, Myanmar insists it is only targeting armed insurgents.

The Dalai Lama spoke about the crisis, saying people who are harassing some Muslims should remember Buddha.

The Dalai Lama is a Nobel peace prize laureate just like Myanmar’s de facto leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who shared the global concern about what is happening in her country.

World leaders need to wake up and pay more attention to Rohingya refugees.

After all we are talking about innocent human lives here.

The Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar, formerly Burma, have always been regarded as second class or stateless citizens.

As a result the vast majority of the group’s members have no legal documentation.

Myanmar’s 1948 citizenship law was already exclusionary, and the military junta which seized power in 1962, introduced a law 20 years later stripping the Rohingya of access to full citizenship.

These oppressed people trace their origin to the 15th century when thousands of Muslims came to the country.

The Rohingya are widely considered illegal immigrants from Bangladesh, even though

many trace their roots in Myanmar back centuries.

Myanmar’s discriminatory policies have compelled hundreds and thousands of Muslim Rohingya to flee their homes in the predominantly Buddhist country.

Many have crossed the land into Bangladesh.

Others have taken to the sea to reach Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand.

Renewed violence, including allegations of rape and murder has greatly escalated into a gigantic crisis.

Some 370,000 Rohingyas have fled the country and crossed into Bangladesh since violence erupted again.

Sheikh Hasina, the Prime Minister of Bangladesh has urged Myanmar to view the situation with humanity, saying innocent

OPINION

What is known is that the AHL club doesn’t pay rent for the first three years of the eight-year agreement but the city could receive up to $150,000 a year in revenue in each of the last five years of the contract. The key words are “could” and “up to ...”.

The city is putting the finishing touches on a $20 million renovation of the Yardmen Arena needed to accommodate the AHL club. Most of the money was borrowed.

Proponents of the deal are spinning the economic benefits of the club’s $3 million payroll.

THIS AND THAT Ex-Cornwall Royals forward Rob Ray was inducted into the Belleville Sports Hall of Fame on the weekend. In 1985 Ray was selected in the fifth round by the Buffalo Sabres and spent 14 seasons with the NHL team as its main enforcer. He piled up 3,207 career penalty minutes. He is still involved with the Sabres, working as a colour commentator.

Note to South Stormont residents: There is good news and bad news when it comes to those controversial roundabouts.

Good news is that of the scores of roundabouts that have replaced traffic signals in Ontario, just one fatality has been recorded in the last five years, and that involved a pedestrian.

The bad news is that according to a Wilfred Laurier University study - Safety Effects of Roundabouts - during the first five years of a roundabout being installed the number of accidents actually increases at an intersection, but then gradually decreases over the long term as drivers adjust to the change and learn how to use them.

The university examination of roundabouts in the Waterloo Region between 2007 and 2010 found an 85 per cent increase in accidents, many of the fender-bender variety. ********** Steve Dryden, The Sports Network (TSN) senior managing editor, was surprised to find out during a chat with Scotty Bowman last month how much the legendary coach knows about Cornwall.

When Dryden mentioned (to Bowman) that he started out in Cornwall (The StandardFreeholder in 1981), Bowman noted that he was familiar with the city.

Early in his NHL career Bowman spent offseasons at the family summer home at Westley’s Point, near Lancaster. He still owns the property.

Bowman was a member of the Cornwall Golf

and Country Club and said he played a lot of golf with city residents Frank Mario and Jerry Brown. He asked about retired Cornwall businessman Neil Burke, who was in the Canadiens’ organization back in the 1950s.

Bowman wanted to know if the “old arena” was still around.

Said he often watched the Akwesasne lacrosse team play at the old barn. Even recalled that they were named the Warriors.

Bowman, who turns 84 on Monday, holds the record for most wins in league history: 1,244 regular wins and 223 playoff victories. He has 14 Stanley Cup rings. He is currently senior adviser of hockey operations for the Blackhawks. His son, Stan, is general manager of the Hawks.

Hard to believe, but in 1978 the Canadiens passed him over as the team’s new general manager (replacement for Sam Pollock). Instead, they hired Irving Grundman who was a disaster.

Bowman once said, “There is nothing so uncertain as a sure thing.” ********** Does any of this sound familiar (Aces)?

A Belleville resident is demanding that the city release financial details of the contract with the Ottawa Senators for its American Hockey League.

Taxpayers are in the dark when it comes to loans provided by the city to the NHL club to fund the re-location of its AHL farm team to Belleville. The city hall spin is that its hands are tied when it comes to releasing the full contract because of third-party (Sens owner Eugene Melnyk) confidentiality.

Au bas de ces textes je lis le thème de cette murale « Ensemble, toujours plus haut, toujours plus loin, toujours plus fort ». Cette devise, inspirée de Pierre de Coubertin, imbibée de discipline personnelle, de travail d’équipe et d’engagement, invite la jeunesse et tous les francophones et francophiles indépendamment de leur âge à donner le meilleur d’eux-mêmes et à viser le dépassement pour atteindre la réussite.

Je remarque dans le pavé uni, devant ce beau monument, des plaques sur lesquelles sont gravés des noms : Jeannine Séguin, Gérald A. Samson, Hughette Burroughs, Révérend Père Charles-Émile Claude, Tina Charlebois et Gaëtan Simard. Ces noms viennent donner des visages aux écrits. Leaders communautaires, leaders culturels, francophones de coeur, immortalisés, tracent la voie aux générations futures.

De l’autre côté je fais une pause pour lire la liste des nombreux bâtisseurs et bâtisseuses. Ce qui me fait le plus chaud au coeur, c’est de voir le nom de mes petits-fils Émile et Antoine gravés sur cette plaque de granit.

Je quitte ce lieu dont la valeur est

Gilles Davidson inaliénable... site historique où se rencontrent le passé, le présent et l’avenir.

Toutes ces pensées rétrospectives se basculent en moi alors que je continue ma promenade, silencieux, absorbé par mes pensées d’hier et d’aujourd’hui avec la ferme conviction d’un avenir meilleur.

Prolongation des ordonnaces Rédigée par Suzie Pilon, Pharmacienne Les actions et les décisions que prennent les pharmaciens se doivent toujours d’être dans l’intérêt fondamental du patient tout en respectant les multiples réglementations qui gèrent la profession de la pharmacie.

Entre autres, la prolongation de votre ordonnance pour une durée limitée afin d’éviter l’interruption de votre traitement est une décision prise par le pharmacien dans le cadre de ses fonctions. Votre pharmacien peut prolonger votre ordonnance au maximum pour la durée de validité de l’ordonnance que votre médecin ou infirmière praticienne vous avait prescrite, sans dépasser six mois. Par exemple, si un médecin vous a prescrit un médicament pour 3 mois, la période maximale de prolongation autorisée est de 3 mois, alors que si la prescription est de 12 mois, la période de prolongation maximale est de 6 mois.

Le pharmacien ne peut pas prolonger votre ordonnance dans toutes les situations. Il se peut qu’il ne soit pas recommandé de prolonger votre ordonnance pour une longue période. Le médicament doit être prescrit pour une condition chronique et stable. C’est votre pharmacien, après avoir bien analysé votre dossier, et selon votre état de santé, qui déterminera s’il peut prolonger ou non votre ordonnance, et si c’est le cas, la durée pendant laquelle il est souhaitable de la prolonger. En effet, s’il considère qu’il est nécessaire que vous voyiez votre médecin dans un court délai, il pourrait ne prolonger votre traitement que pour quelques jours ou quelques semaines ou même refuser de le prolonger et vous diriger immédiatement vers une ressource appropriée. Votre médecin peut également avoir donné des instructions précises au pharmacien, décourageant cette pratique parce qu’il considère que vous devez avoir un suivi étroit.

En raison des lois fédérales, le pharmacien ne peut pas prolonger les ordonnances pour certains médicaments, par exemple les narcotiques (tel que la morphine), médicaments contrôlés (tel que le méthylphénidate), les benzodiazépines ( tel que le lorazepam), le zolpidem et le tramadol. À notre pharmacie, nous prolongerons votre ordonnance, avec votre consentement, s’il est approprié de le faire, en fonction de la date de votre prochain rendez-vous avec votre médecin.

Il est important de savoir que la prolongation de votre ordonnance ne remplace aucunement le suivi fait par votre médecin. D’ailleurs, le pharmacien se doit d’informer votre médecin de la prolongation de votre ordonnance.

Choisissez votre pharmacien avec soin. Le pharmacien joue un rôle primordial dans la continuité des soins et pourrait vous éviter l’arrêt d’un médicament et l’admission à l’hôpital.

L’interruption d’un traitement chronique peut avoir des conséquences néfastes pour votre santé.

Il est simple de transférer votre dossier médicament chez la Pharmacie Medical Arts. Contactez un de nos pharmaciens dès aujourd’hui pour plus d’informations ou visiter notre site en ligne www.medicalartspharmacy.ca SPEC3300097

CORNWALL, Ontario - Vous allez bien penser qu’est-ce qu’un Davidson fait à écrire en français.

Davidson, un nom d’origine écossaise ayant un attachement fidèle et profond à la culture francophone, n’est-ce pas la fusion de deux extrêmes?

Oui, deux extrêmes et c’est grâce à mes parents et mes ancêtres. C’est en effet une assimilation renversée.

Mon père épousa une petite Bélanger de la Lennox Lane, à l’Est de Cornwall, mon grand-père Davidson une Vachon dans le coin de Lochiel, mon arrière grand-père une Lécuyer, ensuite je retrouve les noms de Lanthier, Pepin, Richer et j’en laisse. Vous comprenez?

Vous constatez sans doute que les petites Canadiennes-françaises et les Écossais ça allait bien ensemble! Donc, dans la vie de tous les jours, de génération en génération, c’était le français qui l’emportait.

Me voici.

J’ai une histoire à vous raconter. C’est une histoire semblable à bien d’autres qui ont vu leur origine dans l’est de Cornwall. Je n’ai aucune prétention que le texte que j’écris est à la hauteur de la page sur laquelle il est imprimé, toutefois, je veux vous la raconter. C’est une histoire qui vient du coeur.

La semaine dernière, j’ai pris un après-midi pour retourner dans le temps. J’ai stationné mon véhicule à l’ouest du Monument de la francophonie de Cornwall.

Mon objectif, retracer les pas de mes parents en direction de la Coton.

Avant d’entreprendre ma marche, je me suis assis sur un banc devant le Monument de la francophonie et pour la première fois depuis son inauguration au mois de septembre 2010, j’ai lu dans son entier les textes gravés sur ses plaques de granit.

La première plaque me parle des « vagues de francophones en provenance des fermes et des villages de l’Est ontarien et de la province de Québec ». Ces hommes et ces femmes, ces familles canadiennes-françaises se déracinent, partent à l’aventure et viennent s’établir à Cornwall pour des raisons économiques, pour le travail. « Dans les années 1870, l’avènement des usines de coton et de laine (Dundas, Stormont et Canada Cotton Mills) un peu plus tard l’industrie de pâte et papier (Toronto paper Co. / Howard Smith / Domtar Fine Papers ) ». Je visualise mes grands- parents Bélanger partir de la région de Rimouski pour venir s’établir à Cornwall. Mon grand-père William, ma mère Thérèse, mon père Oscar et plusieurs oncles et tantes des deux côtés de la famille ont travaillé à la sueur de leur front à la Coton et y ont laissé un peu d’eux-mêmes. C’est en effet dans la « weave room » que mon père eut l’audace d’attirer l’attention de ma mère en déposant des boîtes de chocolats dans son panier à ordures. Vous voyez, ma mère, ayant à peine 19 ans, était responsable d’attacher et de couper les extrémités des fils libres sur les tisseuses et elle les jetait dans son panier. À sa grande surprise, une boîte de chocolats! Je ne puis vous dire combien de boîtes de chocolats mon père a dû acheter et déposer dans le panier de ma mère pour qu’enfin elle s’en aperçoive.

Mon grand-père Alex a marié Aldéa Vachon à Glen Robertson. Avec elle, il a pataugé dans les parages couvrant Alexandria, Glen Robertson,

Lochiel, Glen Nevis, VanKleek Hill et Hawkesbury, puis s’est retrouvé à Cornwall. Alex réussit à trouver un emploi au moulin Howard Smith Paper Mill.

Un peu plus loin sur ce beau monument de la francophonie je lis « Dans les années cinquante, des associations et plus de 16 clubs sociaux se structurent, affirment leur identité, répondent aux besoins de la population et fondent, en 1961, le Conseil de vie française... Celui-ci organise pendant de nombreuses années la Semaine française ». En lisant ces mots, je peux voir derrière le texte sur le poli de la plaque de granit noir le reflet des nuages blancs. Dans un moment éphémère, je crois voir ma mère aux cheveux blancs, portant avec grande fierté son écharpe satinée sur laquelle est inscrit « Mère canadienne-française de l’année 1977 » . Quel honneur pour elle, pour sa famille et pour tous ceux qui la connaissaient!

Sur la prochaine plaque je lis « En 1887 s’ouvrent les portes de la première église francophone de Cornwall, la paroisse de la Nativité de la Bienheureuse Vierge Marie. » Depuis ce temps, l’est de Cornwall vit à l’ombre du clocher de cette magnifique église. C’est dans cette église que ma mère fut baptisée, fit sa première communion et où, pendant son adolescence, fut Enfant de Marie. Pendant sa jeunesse, sa foi grandit et chez elle mûrit le don de soi. Ce sont ces valeurs canadiennes-françaises catholiques qu’elle a su inculquer chez ses enfants. Les boîtes de chocolats de mon père ont porté fruit! C’est dans cette belle église au style gothique, que ces deux jeunes personnes âgés de 20 ans ont récité leurs voeux matrimoniaux. Un an plus tard, me voici à mon baptême dans la sacristie de cette même église.

Mes parents ne sont plus, toutefois leurs noms sont gravés sur la plaque des bâtisseurs et bâtisseuses en compagnie des noms des familles de leurs enfants.

J’ai eu des frissons de fierté et un coeur ému.

En me levant, je tourne mon regard vers le centre du monument. J’examine avec intensité ces oeuvres artistiques révélatrices créées par des élèves des paliers intermédiaires et secondaires des deux conseils scolaires.

Le soleil de fin d’après-midi jette ses brillants rayons sur les silhouettes d’acier inoxydable reflétant or et argent. Ce métal qui rayonne d’ardeur et me remplit d’espoir... l’espoir qu’un jour la jeunesse francophone puisse prendre la relève et continuer l’oeuvre des générations passées.

Ces silhouettes si bien définies rendent hommage à la ténacité de la francophonie en Ontario et par le symbolisme de l’acier, notre culture ne sombrera pas dans l’oubli.

Juste au bas de ces belles formes humaines stylisées, une plaque de granit gravée vient identifier les artistes et donner une brève explication de l’oeuvre et de son processus de création. De la pensée créative de ces jeunes surgit l’illustration d’un avenir riche et prometteur.

Des phrases comme celle de Mia « Issus d’un héritage culturel bien établi, nous grandissons en suivant un chemin parfois sinueux... ». Celle d’Evan, « Nous sommes enracinés ici comme le trille et notre présence restera toujours...». Raven et Christophe écrivent, « Avec le lys à la souche et le trille au coeur, nous nous envolons vers un avenir prometteur...». De leur côté, Sophie et Roxanne nous témoignent l’avenir par ces mots, « Pour nous propulser de façon à réussir à atteindre notre idéal et avoir en main notre identité franco-ontarienne...».

Changing Lives through the United Way Nick Seebruch

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - The United Way breakfast kicked off their 2017 campaign season on Friday, Sept.

15, 2017.

Typically, near the end of the breakfast, the United Way reveals a goal for the campaign season. Typically, that number is a dollar amount, this year however, this year, the goal revealed was to change lives.

“Our focus this year isn’t on a target,” said Bill Makinson, who is returning as chair for this year’s campaign. “Our focus is on making a change and changing lives.”

United Way of SD&G Executive Director Lori Greer gave some examples of ways that the United Way has been changing lives in the area.

“All funds raised by the United Way in Cornwall and SD&G, stay in Cornwall and SD&G” she said.

She pointed to how the funding raised by the United Way goes to keep local organizations like Meals on Wheels and mental health programs going.

“This is our why, making lives better,” she said.

Several guests at the United Way breakfast were representatives of organizations that the United Way supports and some of them were invited up to speak T:10” to the crowd and explain how their lives had been

changed for the better thanks to money raised by the United Way. One person was Savanah Lapensee, who is a grade 11 high school student and a participant at the Boys and Girls Club of Cornwall (BGC).

Lapensee explained that before BGC, she was involved in many extra curricular activities, but not many that she was passionate about.

“Boys and Girls Club has taught me to do things that fuel my drive,” she said.

Gerry, a participant at the Hub for Beyond 21 also got up to speak and explained that his life too had been changed for the better thanks to the United Way. “I wake up looking forward to the day ahead and to meeting a lot of new friends,” said Gerry, who is active with Beyond 21 five days a week.

Some events that will be held in support of the United Way this season include the LCBO water bottle drive. Water bottles can be purchased at the LCBO with the idea of filling the empties with change and donating them to the United Way. Greer explained that one such bottle donated contained $58 worth of nickels and dimes. The goal for the LCBO this year is to raise over $29, 000 and they have already raised $13, 000 so far. The fundraiser continues until December.

NEWS

National Learn to Code Day takes place on September 23rd, 2017 Handout from Code Heroes CORNWALL, Ontario - Ladies Learning Code — a national not-for-profit offering beginner-friendly tech education — is proud to announce the fifth year of the Canada-wide initiative designed to promote technology education: National Ladies Learn to Code Day. On September 23rd, 1,500+ adult learners will attend simultaneous in-person workshops in 29 cities across the country.

The Cornwall National Ladies Learn to Code Day will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 44 Pitt St. The Course will be taught by Professor Majid

Moghadam the Coordinator of the Game Development program at St. Lawrence College.

You can register for the course through eventbrite.

Additionally the City will be lighting up the City Hall water fountain in purple to commemorate National Learn to Code Day! While many of us may think AI and machine learning mean more robots and self-driving cars, at a fundamental level, they are about data - and ways to make meaning of data.

This year, in partnership with Accenture, Ladies

Learning Code has set out to teach learners 21st century digital skills and more specifically how to make meaning of data. In hands-on, beginner friendly Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning workshops. Happening on September 23rd across Canada, participants will learn how to put data to use for us in our everyday lives.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are all around us - from Siri on your iPhone to Google Map suggestions, to recommendations for purchases during your Amazon check-out.

“National Learn to Code Day promotes digital

literacy while helping Canadian women skill-up on important 21st century skills.” Since its inception in 2011, Ladies Learning Code has held over 2,000 workshops and events and reached over 70,000 learners across the country. “In an effort to increase digital literacy across Canada, there’s a way for every Canadian to get involved in National Learn to Code Day. Help us make history! Join us in this national movement to empower and equip women with important technical skills to navigate our increasingly digital world.” said Melissa Sariffodeen, Ladies Learning Code’s CEO.

Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is a less alkaline relative of washing soda. It’s used in some powdered cleaners and pre-soak products to provide a little alkalinity but isn’t a major ingredient in prepared cleaners.

Around the house, it’s a handy deodorizer. It can be used as a mild abrasive, and mild bleach from stains on countertops, fine china and similar surfaces. Although a baking soda and water solutions is often recommended as a general-purpose cleaner, it doesn’t have as much cleaning power as a detergent.

A doctor that had been seeing an 80-yearold woman for most of her life finally retired.

At her next check-up, the new doctor told her to bring a list of all the medicines that had been prescribed for her. As the doctor was looking through these his eyes grew wide as he realized Grandma had a prescription for birth control pills.

“Mrs. Smith, do you realize these are birth control pills?”

“Yes, they help me sleep at night.”

“Mrs. Smith, I assure you there is absolutely nothing in these that could possibly help you sleep!”

She reached out and patted the young doctor’s knee and said, “Yes, dear, I know that. But every morning, I grind one up and mix it in the glass of orange juice that my 16-year-old Granddaughter drinks. And believe me it definitely helps me sleep at night.”

The fundaiser for “I Am Alive Cat Rescue” Book & Bake Sale held last week helped raise $182.00 and 3 cats were also adopted that day.

The money helps for cats transportation, vaccines, medication and spaying or neutering our kitties. A big thanks to everyone who helped with donations! And thanks to Pet Valu at the Eastcourt Mall for letting us use your space!

Congratualtions, Meagan and Dan!

Check out all the church suppers being offered at local and surrounding area parishes on various weekends. Super yummy!
