LONG SAULT, Ontario – Signs throughout Long Sault’s streets pointed passers-by to one location on Saturday, July 27: the McGillivary family’s pig roast in support of Hospice and the Winchester District Memorial Hospital Foundation.

“This is the 15th annual pig roast and we wanted to support some local places, so we chose Hospice and the Winchester Hospital,” said Kenny McGillivary. The pig roast entertained an expected 300 guests with food and live music from a variety of local bands.

The events’ success stems from the Long Sault Community being “so closely knit”, according to McGillivary.

“We really are fortunate that people do want to get out and donate what ever they can. We’re just really happy to support these causes,” he said.

While the event was free to attend, donations were invited by the McGillivary family for the two causes.

“Having an event like this that gets the whole community out and have some food and a bit of fun, plus also benefitting some good foundations, it doesn’t get a whole lot better than that,” said McGillvary.

Residents return to Chateau Cornwall

Shawna O’Neill shawna.oneill@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – After 111 days of living in relocation sites, residents of Chartwell Chateau Cornwall were welcomed home with open arms by staff and family members at the Amelia St. location on Monday, July 29. Chateau Cornwall underwent extensive renovations following a flooding that occurred on April 9 this year. Chartwell representatives were not able to comment on the total cost of renovations at the time of publication.

“Unfortunately, while we were having a sweet renovated, a sprinkler pipe was hit which caused water damage to the building (on April 9),” said Amy Steele, Chartwell Director of Regional Operations. “Residents were all evacuated safely.”

Steele commended the quick action of Cornwall Emergency Services and Cornwall Transit personnelle who were on scene and assisting during the swift evacuation. Steele thanked all staff of Nav Centre and McConnell Manor as both facilities took in residents based on care needs. She also thanked families who invited their relatives home during the renovation period. With the help of Chartwell regional staff and managers, residents were all greeted and given a flower upon arrival before being escorted to their rooms where they were given assistance with unpacking their belongings.

CORNWALL, Ontario – About 20 athletes happily tried their hand at soccer strategies at the Benson Centre on Wednesday, July 24, all a part of the Ontario Special Olympic’s summer program.

For mother and main volunteer Karen Labelle, this program is very important to her and her son. Her son Matthew McIntosh, who lives with Autism, routinely enjoys himself during Wednesday evenings now.

“They may not have a lot of friendships and now they are all looking forward to coming out here and seeing their new friends…I’ve spoken to many of the other parents and they say the same thing,” said Labelle.

Jason Hussak, Special Olympics Ontario Community and Marketing Developer, said that Cornwall has not hosted community programs supported by their organization in a number of years, apart from active high school programs.

He is hoping that strong school support networks will translate into program partnerships for evening and weekend events.

“For eight weeks this summer we are doing Special Olympic programs, so sport programs for people with intellectual disabilities,” explained Hussak. “We are kind of doing it as a way to show people the support they may want to bring to the Cornwall area and give people the opportunity to try a few different things, learn about organization.”

With four weeks left in the summer initiative,

Volunteer Isaac Derouchie and Joseph Goncalves enoying their soccer game (Shawna O’Neill/ Seaway News).

community members are encouraged to participate and volunteer. Each Wednesday night around 7 p.m., attendees will gear up to play different soccer and bocce games.

“We are looking for volunteers to recruit partners together,” said Hussak.

Labelle said that the program is great to teach attendees different social skills and different methods of learning.

“Cornwall doesn’t have a lot in terms of meeting the needs of people with special needs…a lot of times they don’t have a place to go…there seems to be a lack of (services) for those aged 15 to 21. This fills the gap and includes the ones who are already receiving other services,” said Labelle.

Ontario Special Olympics is open to atheletes of all ages. The organization has conducted research with their athletes, claiming they experience the following health and lifestyle benefits: Improved lifespan and overall health for Special Olympics athletes 10 per cent fewer athletes who are obese or overweight 20 per cent fewer athletes with anxiety disorders due to access to sport six per cent higher employment rate for Special Olympics athletes To learn more about the program and how to get involved, visit Special Olympics Ottawa on Facebook or contact Hussak at (416) 447-8326 ext. 279 or JasonH@specialolympicsontario.com.

There are many great hockey players native to Glengarry, but those whose talents have earned them a spot on a NHL, AHL, OHL, Canadian Junior and European Elite team rosters are deserving of special recognition. Such is the hockey journey of Williamstown’s Kent McDonell who will be inducted into the Glengarry Sports Hall of Fame next month.

Kent, born in 1979, is one of six children of Bruce and Linda McDonell. Notably, he is the great grandson of Dr. Alexander Tupper McDonell, an inductee into the Hall of Fame in 1983 who was recognized for his football and lacrosse achievements.

Kent was another Williamstown resident who grew up on the banks of the Raisin River and learned to skate on it in the winter and fish on it in the summer. Kent played as many sports as possible within the Char-Lan sports community but hockey quickly emerged as his passion. With three older brothers in Char-Lan minor hockey, there were always a pair of handme-down skates available. Kent was an enthusiastic member of the Char-Lan Minor Hockey Association from novice through to bantam minor. During these minor hockey years, his father was a volunteer coach with the association and enjoyed the unique opportunity to coach his son. Bruce is quick to share that hockey matters remained at the rink and were not brought home for further discussion. Kent’s father recalls that his son was very much a respectful competitor who would hold back his game if the Char-Lan team was ahead by a number of goals but if the team was losing, “then look out because Kent turned on the jets!”

Not unlike many youngsters in the Char-Lan community, Kent set his goal to one day play for the Jr. B Rebels. As a young fan during the winter months he never missed a Rebels’ game. His father recalls that Kent would participate in the different hockey skill competitions that the Rebels’ offered during game intermissions. The winner of these competitions would receive a free hockey stick and Kent never missed an opportunity to go on the ice and try his luck. As luck or more likely skill had it, Kent reputedly won enough sticks to keep him playing the game for a few years. Such a fan was Kent that he made a point to high-five the players as they came off the ice. How ironic that a few years later, hockey fans would be lining up to give

Kent a high-five when he exited the ice after one of his games as a professional player.

Playing through the levels of Char-Lan minor hockey, Kent remembers the away tournaments and always felt a great sense of pride and satisfaction when his hockey team made up of small town ad farm kids entered the big city and state-side tournaments and came home victors. Kent credits much of his early success because he played alongside many good hockey players from the Williamstown area.

Kent joined the Junior B Rebels at just 15 years of age playing the 1993-94 season. The following year, instead of following up on the opportunity to report to the Hawkesbury Hawks training camp, Al Wagar coach of the Cornwall Colts, picked him up to play in their 1995-96 season. That season Kent playing the right-wing position collected 33 points in 35 games. The Cornwall Colts advanced to the Fred Page Cup final, losing in the final game to Dartmouth.

Kent is a local example of a young man who left home at an early age to pursue his chances of a pro hockey career. There were university hockey scholarships offered to Kent, however he chose to enter the Junior A draft and went in the 2nd round to Guelph Storm in 1996. Kent was just 17 years old when he left home to be billeted in Guelph and complete his high school there while playing with the Storm.

For certain, Kent will be returning to Williamstown on August 21 to be deservedly inducted into the Glengarry Sports Hall of Fame.

MARTINTOWN, Ontario – Do you believe in ghosts? The Martintown Mill Preservation Society is hoping you will test that theory during one of their Paranormal Communication Sessions with the ghost hunting group, Phantoms of Yore.

Phantoms of Yore first attended the Mill on Monday, July 15 to try and spot inexplicable activity and events, possibly in the presence of Jacob. Jacob, who is believed to be a playful ghost who resides in the Mill, is a spirit of folklore derived from the story of a young boy who drowned outside of the Grist Mill many years ago.

“I couldn’t explain some of the things I saw,” said Brian Arberry, President of the Martintown Mill Preservation Society.

Arberry said that on one occasion he was talking to his son-in-law on the second floor of the Mill and when the two looked over at a set of weights on a scale, the weights were swinging back and forth, despite the lack of any movement or wind to encourage the swinging. On another occasion, Arberry was speaking with someone about Jacob and they heard a distinctive knocking noise coming from the corner of the Mill.

“The mill is all stone…so I’m not sure where the knocking came from. It’s different…I don’t know if there’s an explanation for that or not,” said Arberry, who isn’t quite sure if spirits reside within the old, local building, as well as any other historic site in Cornwall and SDG. Arberry said that the ghost hunters did detect some activity and frequencies according to their equipment. The group will be back for more investigation on August 23 and 24.

“I think it’s good for the entire area…its not to sensationalize it, it’s just interesting…the heritage building and the intrigue of the story,” said Arberry.

Arberry said that recently local authors have been publishing and conducting readings of books they were challenged to write, based on the story of Jacob. These stories are quite a hit amongst the community and many supporters from around the region have stopped by the Mill on Sundays to visit the site and the writers.

To learn more about the authors or the Phantoms of Yore ghost hunt, visit Martintown Mill and Phantoms of Yore on Facebook.

De puissantes présentations à la Journée de l’électricité OPG par John MacGillis, traduire par Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - Ontario Power Generation (OPG) a ouvert ses portes au centre de visiteurs pour permettre aux visiteurs de voir comment plus de 40 pour cent de l’électricité de l’Ontario est produite lors de la Journée de l’électricité du dimanche 28 juillet.

L’événement a présenté des démonstrations sur les différentes occupations et une partie de la science derrière le barrage hydroélectrique, notamment des présentations sur les circuits, et la maintenance du barrage hydroélectrique.

«Nous cherchons à faire connaître aujourd’hui ce que nous faisons chez OPG et comment nous le faisons», a déclaré Katelynn Delormier, une employée. «Nos travailleurs et nos visiteurs, ainsi que nos visiteurs, attachent une importance toute particulière à la sécurité

autour des barrages. Nous souhaitons que les gens repartent avec une meilleure connaissance de la situation.»

Les équipements utilisés par les employés dans leur travail quotidien ont également été exposés pour que les visiteurs puissent dialoguer, afin de fournir une expérience plus pratique, selon Delormier.

«Nous avons un impact énorme sur l’énergie de l’Ontario et beaucoup de gens n’ont jamais vraiment vu ce qui se passe ici. C’est donc bien de pouvoir partager notre travail», at-elle déclaré.

Le Centre affirme également que les individus ont également emporté une poubelle remplie d’objets donnés. « Ils ont passé beaucoup de temps à fouiller dans nos articles donnés. Puis ils ont décidé qu’ils volaient trop pour se transporter, alors ils ont volé notre poubelle pour tout emporter », lit-on le message du Centre Agapè sur Facebook. « En raison des nouveaux règlements de la ville sur les déchets, nous avons dû acheter ces poubelles de la ville et elles coûtent cher! Aidez-nous à identifier les voleurs d’Agapè pour que ces voleurs s’arrêtent et récupèrent notre poubelle!! » Prendre des articles qui sont donnés ou

laissés sur la propriété du centre est considéré comme un vol.

L’événement visait à soutenir l’hospice et la fondation de l’hôpital Winchester Memorial

Memorial.

Le rôti de porc avait 300 invités avec de la nourriture et de la musique live de divers groupes locaux.

Le succès de l’événement tient au fait que la communauté de Long Sault est «si étroitement liée», selon Kenny McGillivray.

Cornwall Arts Centre entering design phase Nick Seebruch

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – On Wednesday, July 24, at the unveiling of new donor panels honouring the financial supporters of the Arts Centre, the City of Cornwall announced that they are approaching the design phase for the new building.

Located at the old Bank of Montreal building at 159 Pitt St., the City of Cornwall purchased the Arts Centre in 2018.

Jamie Fawthrop, General Manager for the city’s Parks and Recreation department told the gathered crowd that administration was ready to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) to find a company to redesign the building.

The total bid price for the design contract is

$300,000, but Fawthrop explained that cost would not be the sole determinant in their search for an appropriate design firm.

A committee from members of the Cornwall art committee which has been hard at work raising money for the centre.

The new donor boards on display at the Benson Centre show dozens of names, and dozens more have contributed anonymously.

At the unveiling event, more cheques were presented to the committee including $500 from Liam and Jessica Lynch and $750 from l’Amalgame, a French theatre company who donated some of their proceeds from their recent production Papillons de Nuit.

A further $2,000 was donated by Your Arts Council (YAC) which was raised through their

Conquer the Canvas event in the Spring. A cheque for $5,000 from an anonymous donor was presented and earlier in the week, the Jean-Louis and Collette Bellemare Family Foundation donated $100,000 to the cause. The Bellemare family founded the Farm Boy chain of grocery stores in Cornwall.

In total, so far, $357,595 has been raised for the Arts Centre in the Cornwall community.

“Today is a great day, not just because the sun is shining, but because the vision of our arts centre is shining as well,” said Mayor Bernadette Clement.

The projected completion date of the art centre is sometime in 2021.

One year since Montreal Rd. fire Shawna O’Neill shawna.oneill@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – When Cornwall Fire Service Platoon Chief Luc Richer walked outside of the fire department after getting the initial call on Thursday, July 26 in 2018, he could see excessive amounts of smoke billowing into the air above our city.

He knew the fire was large from outside of the station so made a call for a second alarm.

What has been recognized as the biggest fire in Cornwall in over 40 years occurred one year ago from today. Chief Richer, now retired, will always remember the dramatic day as it coincidentally falls on his birthday.

By the time Chief Richer and his team arrived

close to the scene of the fire on Montreal Rd. and Alice St. at around 6:30 p.m., all he could see was a large orange ball and he could feel the extreme heat, the fire fully involved. He promptly called dispatch to signal a general alarm, alerting all staff to come join in the efforts to contain the blaze.

Once crew members were as close to the blaze as possible, they were quickly preoccupied with placing trucks at strategic locations in attempt to shield the heat and flames from reaching other buildings. A total of seven buildings were damaged by the heat and three buildings were completely destroyed, including two apartment buildings and Poirier Furniutre, which has since relocated.

Over 40 workers were eventually on scene, where they remained all night, working on containing the blaze for several hours and then staying to ensure no hot spots reignited. It has been reported that 30 minutes after the blaze started, one residential building collapsed.

“I was there (at Cornwall Fire Services) for over 30 years and I had never seen anything like that…it was the worst I had ever seen…just a big ball of flame, it was crazy,” said Chief Richer, still in awe. Richer said that due to safety concerns, crews had to tear down the three destroyed buildings promptly.

The Canadian Red Cross reported that it relocated 31 residents for up to 72 hours after the blaze. Seaway News reached out to the Red

Cross for an update on any of the displaced locals on Monday, July 22 but has not received a comment.

One day after the blaze, CPS deemed it as suspicious.

“The Cornwall Fire Department has deemed the fire to be suspicious in nature and as such, the Cornwall Community Police Service will now be taking the lead,” CPS wrote in a statement to media. “Members of the Criminal Investigations Division and Forensic Identification Unit are on scene conducting an investigation…”

One year later, CPS Communication Officer Stephanie MacRae could confirm that the investigation is still ongoing.

Slocan Ramblers bring bluegrass vibes to Aultsville Theatre Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – The sweet acoustic sound of bluegrass will ring out in Cornwall’s Aultsville Theatre on Friday, Sept. 13.

The Slocan Ramblers have travelled the country sharing their bold and sometimes experimental take on bluegrass music.

The Slocan Ramblers are a four-piece band that began in Toronto, playing at a spot called

the Cloak and Dagger. They quickly started to gain notoriety.

Since forming, the Slocan Ramblers have opened for Steve Martin at Bluesfest in Ottawa, they have been recognized or nominated for prestigious awards, including being nominated for Best Roots Album of the Year at the 2019 Juno Awards.

The band’s banjo player Frank Evans said that he grew up loving the old sound and community feel of bluegrass and cites the Foggy

Hogtown Boys as an influence.

“It isn’t necessarily about playing fast solos all the time, it is more about a communal type of music,” he said.

Evans want to see people come out to their show to experience bluegrass in all its glory.

“To fully understand that style of music, you have to see it live,” he said. “People tell me all the time ‘I thought I hated bluegrass all my life until I saw it live.’”

On the writing said, Evans explained that it

was sometimes easier to create when coming from a darker place.

“People have different places they draw from, it might be cliché, but it is easier when we come from a dark place and we all have had hard times like that,” Evans said.

Tickets are $40 and are on-sale now at the Cornwall Civic Complex box office from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday, or ticket buyers can call 613-938-9400 or by searching for Aultsville Theatre at www.tickepro.ca

Protesters against meat at Cornwall Ribfest

CORNWALL, Ontario – As smoke from ribs and other meats filled the air at Lamoureux Park, around six protesters handed out pamphlets at the clock tower to discourage eating meat at Cornwall Ribfest on Saturday, July 27.

“We’re just here to remind people that there is no humane way to kill an animal and events like this are based around killing animals,” said

Michele Thorn, one of the protesters.

The goal of the protest was to show Ribfest attendees alternatives to meat produce, such as Tim Hortons and A&W’s Beyond Meat options, according to Thorn. Cornwall has also become more open to the idea of meat-free alternatives, said Thorn.

Max Bourcier Cornwall Seaway News This is the internet. If someone isn’t mature enough to take criticism then get off the web Krystal Taillon Max Bourcier, it’s not about the inability to take criticism. It’s about people presenting their differing opinions in a respectful manner. Those who aren’t mature enough to engage in discussions using appropriate language should stick to expressing themselves on their personal facebook page, not a newspaper’s public page.Again, Cornwall Seaway News can’t have comments that are filled with vulgarity or insults on here.

It’s really not that difficult to understand...

Mark Lauterbach This strikes me as such a #FirstWorldProblem - we waste tonnes of food, pay ludicrous premiums for “organic”, and evangelize to each other on the ethics of our choices. Perhaps we should also take a moment to celebrate that we are privileged enough to live in a part of the world where we have so much food that we can entertain these notions instead of worrying about getting enough nourishment every day. #justsayin Lynn Quenneville My brother is vegetarian. I am not. I don’t sit at his table with a poster. He doesn’t sit at mine with one. We respect each other’s choices.

Mary Jane Proulx City function so what! Time to think about the animals and our health. And the bloody planet!!

Gerry Leclair Mary Jane Proulx plants are alive as well Jessie Donnelly Gerry Leclair if plants were sentient, like the animals in the plate, and plants could too feel: happiness, sadness, love, disappointment, anger, compassion, then maybe your veggie argument would have some standing, but there’s been thousands of studies concluding that animals have and feel the same emotions as humans, unlike plants.

Gerry Leclair Jessie Donnelly and do animals eat animals in the wild to survive we too are from kingdom animalia sure we maybe more sophisticated but our teeth were made to tear apart meat not eat plants alone. Millions of natives have been hunting for meat for millions of years. And aboriginal people also it is the circle of life.

When we die we too are eaten by bugs.

Tyler Orr I don’t show up to a vegan festival or an organic farm protesting your choices stop protesting mine Steffy Bough I’ve seen the “beyond meat” ingredients. I’ll stick to the real thing Thank you!

Pat Szabadka I love all animals, especially in a good gravy Kayanna Jackson Fun fact! For those who are more concerned with the environment, going vegetarian actually helps helps lower the greenhouse emissions!

Shoutout to the people who brought they’re own plates!

Gail Ferguson Cummings Annual Pig Roast for Charity in Long Sault today, was a huge success for Hospice and Winchester District Memorial Hospital ... I don’t believe there were any protesters there Bruce Blue Check out the nutritional numbers on that beyond crap. Very high in sodium and calories.

Koroleva Voyny Bruce Blue And meat doesn’t? Lol Krystal Taillon Ribfest generates not only revenue for our local businesses, it also raises funds for the Optimist Club which then puts that money right back into our community. To end Ribfest because of the personal beliefs/life choices of a few would negatively impact our city as a whole, in my opinion.

However, I DO think an event that’s vegetarian/vegan based is a great idea! Perhaps the group who protested could start looking into options for that and bring something new and successful to our community, as well as inform and educate the public :) Louise Bellmore Krystal Taillon very well said Mary Lewis Krystal Taillon you don’t have to eat meat if you don’t

want to but don’t try to dictate to any one else. Every one can decide for themselves.

Tracy Jodoin Ok, I’m a vegetarian and in NO way is it my business to tell someone else what they should and shouldn’t eat.

Gail Ferguson Cummings Everyone has their opinion but please don’t try to shove it down my throat ... you eat what you want, and let me eat my meat! BBQ ribs, here I come!

Kim Massie I love the beyond meat patties you buy at the grocery store... not the fast food stuff... but I also still eat meat Leanne Seguin Everyone has the right to protest & these are always peaceful protest.We all agree they have the right to protest, be vegan, be vegetarian, eat meat, whatever no one can take that right away Gerry Leclair Leanne Seguin ok so why is it that meat eaters don’t protest vegans cause we don’t have to Leanne Seguin Protest if you like or want that is your & everyone else’s right. You also have the right To not protest not sure what the problem is Shirley Brunet-White I went to r ibfest last night.but I didn’t try any ribs don’t really care for them.I went for the music.I didn’t protest t anything about it.I did what I wanted to do.and I enjoyed myself.

Nancy Dennison Actually the A&W beyond meat burger is delicious!

Graham Hanes I imagine they drove there too... Using fossil fuel...

Which came from animals... But that’s none of my business...

Mary Jane Proulx Graham Hanes At least we are trying - what are you doing?

Matt Bombardier I didnt know cornwall had protesters against meat... i dont seem them at the meat cutting school or any grocery stores or reasturant that serve meat..

I guess theyre only against meat once a year Naomi Laframboise Its a right to opinion you have yur opinion to not support ribfest but you do not have right to put others to shame for their decision to support it if you dont like the idea of an event you dont have to attend Jordan Patrick Naomi Laframboise or they can leave everyone alone to enjoy their day.... As you just stated it’s people choice to eat meat and not to so the people who choice to not eat meat shouldn’t bother the people who do Naomi Laframboise Jordan Patrick true i think ppl are just throwing a fit to throw a fit in this town everything is an argument sadly Jordan Patrick Naomi Laframboise or they can leave everyone alone to enjoy their day.... As you just stated it’s people choice to eat meat and not to so the people who choice to not eat meat shouldn’t bother the people who do Naomi Laframboise Jordan Patrick true i think ppl are just throwing a fit to throw a fit in this town everything is an argument sadly Jordan Patrick Naomi Laframboise agree I do my own thing leave everyone alone if it dont interfere with my life I dont want anything to do with it Kristine Picken Vegans existed long before fake meat products, what is with all the beyond meat hate? I have a feeling it is an easier insult than to actually think about why a person chooses not to consume flesh *not a vegan Sarah MacMillan Kristine Picken exactly, it’s a lazy persons argument.

Jackie Kennedy Kristine Picken it’s a sad argument since the buns they eat their meat on contain the same ingredients as the beyond burger. They are just defensive and scared. I’ll agree with the scientists over the facebook nutritionists about flesh consumption.

Brian Major I really don’t believe people should feel shame for enjoying meat just like those who choose not to eat meat, that is the choice they made, Much like religion politics, etc just because we do not all share the same views does not mean others should push there views on people

Protests in a small town Nick Seebruch

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

Evendis everaec uptatecus sunt est Over the past month, our paper has covered two protests that have taken place in the City of Cornwall. Both protests drew intense criticism and debate online and I wanted to take a minute with this summer column to address some of those passionate comments.

A few weeks ago, we covered a protest that took place in front of the Port Theatre.

The protest was Pro-Choice and the protesters were demonstrating against the Pro-Life film Unplanned that the Port was screening.

The second protest took place just this past weekend in front of Ribfest and was against animal cruelty.

I’m not a vegan and I would classify myself as pro-choice, so I feel like I fall on different sides of each of these protests.

That being said, I think that protests were done the way a protest should be. They drew awareness to the issue at hand, while also not disrupting the event from others who wanted to enjoy them.

The Unplanned protest did not prevent people from going to see the movie, the Ribfest protest did not prevent people from going to eat ribs at Ribfest.

Whether you agree with a particular protest or not, does not determine if that protest should take place or not. These protests were small, around a dozen or so people for each, but they were not disruptive and provided information that people could do with what they pleased.

What frustrates me is when I see comments saying that these protests shouldn’t happen. Protests are an important part of

democracy and they are a way people can freely express themselves. If society finds that the opinions expressed by a particular protest group are odious, then they can simply ignore them, or even better, organize a counter protest.

Protesters seek a platform to get a message out to the public, if anyone in the public disagrees, then they can be ignored, but as long as protesters are not disruptive or destructive, then they have every right to their freedom of expression.

In that same vein, Seaway News was accused of being against freedom of expression when we deleted some comments from our Facebook page on both of these stories that contained vulgarities and personal attacks.

Disagreeing with a point of view is fine, but we believe that we have a responsibility of upholding a level of civility in comments left on our social media and to keep our social media sites free of libelous remarks.

This is because we think that our readers can have a debate and defend nearly any opinion they like, as long as they do it with civility and intelligence. This is not, as one reader messaged us to say, part of a conspiracy by Justin Trudeau to abolish free speech; it is, as I just stated, designed to promote open and intelligent debate.

What do you think readers?

How do you feel about protesters?

from 10 cents for a 10.2 ounce glass while the price of bottled beer in beverage rooms was increased by two cents. Drinkers were getting a break on draught with the 10.2 ounce glass replacing eight ounce glasses. ... The $12.5-million expansion at Howard Smith Paper Mill was at the halfway point. The project included installation of the “newest, fastest, largest” fine paper machine in the country. A new woodyard and extension to the finishing department rounded out the expansion. Several houses on Hazel Street were torn down to make room for the paper machine. Many of the displaced residents were employed at the mill and some built homes in what became known as Lakeview Heights. (At the time residents had a view of the lake).

TRIVIA This Pitt Street grocery store

operated next door to the Bank of Montreal (now the arts centre) from 1937 to the 1960s when it moved to a modern super market on Sydney Street.

TRIVIA ANSWER The experiment with the Pitt Street pedestrian mall - First to Third streets - came to an end when it was re-opened to vehicular traffic on Nov. 9, 1991.

OOPS! Magician Doug Henning once made an elephant disappear. We did one better. We moved a three-storey hotel two city blocks.

We called it the King George which was at Second and Pitt streets, now the city’s most prominent vacant lot.

In the heat and sweltering humidity of midJuly 1959 the United Counties Health Unit wrote the final chapter for Cornwall’s most popular swimming hole.

After the Standard-Freeholder reported on complaints from numerous parents that their children had come down with sore throats and developed rashes and body sores after swimming at Silver Bridge, the health unit banned swimming not just at Silver Bridge but the entire canal. This included several other less popular canal swimming spots - Augustus Street Bridge, Roosevelt Bridge behind Howard Smith Paper Mill and Lock 19 near Maple Grove just off old Highway 2. The lock now has a foot bridge.

With the canal no longer used for shipping after the Seaway opened, most of the waterway became stagnant. The canal water was covered with slimy, smelly islands of moss and peppered with debris and garbage.

Health officials warned that the ban would be strictly enforced by city police, which some noted would be easier said than done.

Silver Bridge at the foot of Marlborough Street was part of the old canal system and a

summer oasis for hundreds of young and old swimmers. In the Silver Bridge heyday, Cornwall had one public swimming pool, Central Park Pool, later renamed Horovitz Park. It had rules and regulations with set hours. A rope separated the shallow end (about two feet) from the deep end (six feet). Silver Bridge offered a lot more freedom.

In an editorial, the Standard-Freeholder urged civic officials to come up with a way to transport the displaced swimmers to the new beaches on the Long Sault Parkway. A stone’s throw away from Silver Bridge were the Bingley Steel dry docks where ships were repaired, boardy bottom, the bywash and lover’s lane. (If Pointe Maligne is ever developed it would be great to name a pathway “Lover’s Lane”.)

In her book “The Friendly Town that Grew”, Eileen Merkley recalled that the “maze of trees, growing in well plotted circles, provided both the brilliance of sunshine and the tranquility of shade which attracted lovers and daydreamers.” A few years later these pieces of local history and summer memories were literally buried with the filling in of the canal east from Cumberland Street.

Some argue that it was a mistake.

ALSO THIS WEEK IN 1959 - The Ontario government announced an increase in the price of beer. The new price was $4.50 for a case of 24 and $2.25 for 12. Government regulated hotel draught prices were going up to 15 cents

2019 Glengarry Highland Games

See you there!

~ Friday, August 2nd & Saturday 3rd, 2019 ~

Road to the Games Provided by Glengarry Highland Games

So Many Reasons to Come to the Games It’s hard to believe that we are less than two weeks away from one of the most anticipated events of the summer. Everyone waits all July for the Games to arrive eager to don their tartan and famed Games logo T-shirt, meet friends and family from near and far, eat some haggis, watch some of the top heavyweight athletes from across North America, dance the night away, cheer on the tug of war teams and stand in awe as the massed bands perform.

Heavyweights Always Attract A Crowd One of the biggest attractions of the Glengarry Highland Games is always the heavyweight events. The Games present the entire gamut of competitions including Professional

various sizes, and are tossed similarly to the Olympic style. The difference is mostly in the hammer itself - the Scottish hammer is heavier (weighing either 12, 16, or 22 lbs) with the hammer head made of lead, and the handle made of wicker/rattan, which is strong and can flex on impact. The competitor vigorously rotates the hammer to gain momentum, and releases it into the air. The throw is measured for distance to where the hammer hits the ground.

The sheaf toss derives from the

farming traditions of Scotland, and grew out of a competition to see who could toss a sheaf of wheat the highest. Today the sheaf is a 16 or 20 lb. bag of twine and burlap, (Women competitors throw a 10lb. sheaf ) and a standard pitch fork is used to toss it over a horizontal bar.

The heavyweight events take place in the infield all day Friday and Saturday and keep everyone enthralled with the strength and skill of the athletes who give their all to set a record or become Games champion.

Men’s and Women’s, Masters, Amateurs, Intermediates and even, the Juniors. Each competition will see champions both at the national, provincial and local levels. In the Pro Men’s, athletes are coming from both ends of the country and right here at home with Jason Baines from Dalkeith. The Masters are a real favourite as past champions show that they still have what it takes. Kevin Fast from Cobourg will be one to watch as he goes up against home favourites Lee MacKinnon of Alexandria and Ron Graham from Apple Hill. The Pros are all day Saturday and the Masters are Friday afternoon.

In the Women’s Pros, perennial favourite Josee Morneau from Winnipeg will certainly be ready to take on Canadian Champion Susie Lajoie from Nova Scotia. Lisa MacDonald of Alexandria is ready to give a good showing against these two Games champions when they take o field starting at 10 am Friday morning. The Amateur Heavyweights start the events off first on Friday morning at 8:15 and feature the best in local talent hoping to one day move up to the Pros.

For those watching the Heavyweight events, the events are not like any others. Here is a very brief and simple guide to the most popular events.

The most popular viewing event is the caber toss. The competitor must “pick” (pick up) the caber, run, and toss it so it lands straight out from him/her at a 12 o’clock position. The caber is tossed for accuracy, not distance. The Caber can be any size, and can range between 18’-26’, and weigh from (approximately) 100 lbs.- 150 lbs.

With the stone throw, a field stone weighing between 16 and 26 lb. is used. The stone is measured to where the stone first hits the ground.

In the hammer throw, hammers come in

Glengarry Highland Games

There’s nothing like the Glengarry Highland Games In a few short days, thousands will descend on the village of Maxville for the 72nd edition of the Glengarry Highland Games. All across Glengarry, spare rooms are being prepared for those making the annual trek home for the Games. Further away, hundreds of competitors are packing their equipment and finalizing their travels in hopes of winning that gold medal.

Scottish or not, the Games are definitely the place to be on August 2 and 3.

This year fifty pipe bands will be competing at the Games with 3 Grade One and 6 Grade Two Bands including the Dunedin Pipe Band from Florida. A record 245 (and still counting) highland dancers will take to the stage over the two days in events for all ages and skill levels. Make sure to visit the thirty-four clans with their information displays and find out more about your celtic heritage.

The Tartan Ball on Thursday is another sellout with a night of fine dining and Scottish entertainment planned. Added to the exciting MacCulloch Dancers and the Glengarry Pipe Band, guests will be treated to guest harpist Sharlene Wallace providing relaxing dinner music. The 2 Paddys and Friends will make sure the dance floor is full to get the Games off to a rolling start.

The heavyweights are always a big draw and

one of the competitors who has been a longtime favourite at the Games is Rev. Dr. Kevin Fast.

Now appearing at the Masters’ level, Rev. Fast has set many records outside the Games. The reverend is known as one of the strongest men in the world and has set more than 20 powerlifting records, many of them still unbroken. His Guinness World Records include pulling a transport plane, a house, a 109 ton vehicle, lifting a group of 22 people on his back and tossing 15 cabers in 3 minutes. The reverend may be closing in on 60 years old but his strongman feats continue and keep getting bigger. He has many Ripley’s Believe It or Not records and has shoes enshrined at both the Ripley Museum in St. Augustine, Florida and the Guinness World Records Museum in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Believe it or not, come out Friday and see for yourself.

Both Friday and Saturday, Tug of War competitions take to the infield. Friday before the Tattoo, four local teams will vie to take home bragging rights about who’s the strongest in the County. The usual North and South Glengarry rivalry will be challenged by two additional teams. What is becoming a main attraction is Saturday’s Highland Regiment Challenge Cup event. Ten military regiments from across Canada will be arriving to see which one can unseat the perennial winners, the Cameron Highlanders from Ottawa.

Prayer to the holy SPirit Holy Spirit, You who make me see everything, and shows me the way to reach my ideals, You who give me the divine gift to forgive and forget all that is done to me; and You who are in all the instances of my life. With me I want to thank You for everything and to confirm once more, I never want to be separated from You, no matter how great material desires may be. I want to be with you and my loved ones. A person may pray this for three days without asking for their wish, after the third day, their wish will be granted, no matter how difficult it may be, and promise to publish this dialogue as soon as this favour is granted.

Thank You to St. Anthony for favours received.

“Just sit down and pedal” NUTHILLTOO@GMAIL.COM

Last week we paddled together, and I must say, we got along together quite well. Today we go for a tandem bicycle ride. It’s going to be a very different experience.

This time, I’m the one up front. You get on the back saddle and keep your feet on the pedals.

Pedal. That’s all you do.

twenty-one gear options to select, depending whether we’re going up-hill or down, slowly or quickly. There’s a lever on each side of my handlebar. Braking: disc brakes, front and rear. Levers are also on each side of the handlebar. I work the brakes, front and rear.

“Can’t I take care of one of those for you?”

“No, you just sit on the saddle, keep your feet on the pedals – and pedal. That’s why you’re called ‘the stoker’”.

Because both sets of pedals are inter-connected by a common drive chain, the rate of pedaling has to be identical. The rear set can’t freewheel.

AD DEADLINE: FRIDAY AT NOON Cash Interac Not Available

Sorry folks, it’s nothing liked the equal sharing that goes on in paddling - and in a good marriage. In tandem biking, it’s a male-dominated, sexist, front-seat dictatorship, albeit a benevolent and necessary one. I’ve never seen it to be otherwise.

If you ride with me, it’s just “Sit on the saddle, keep your feet on the pedals – and pedal. Unless I tell you otherwise, it’s just, ‘Ready? 1-2-3-GO!’” Before our next ride together, if there is to be one, I’ll drop by the bike shop to see if they can add a bell to the rear handlebar. That’ll give you a voice, a means of getting my attention, so you can plead, “Can’t we take a break?”

Hmm, maybe you’d rather go canoeing.

handy device that informs the guy up front of current speed, average speed, time elapsed, distance covered and time of day. Oh yes, the temperature too. You can’t see it from back there, so I’ll tell you what you have to know. I have a bell on my handlebar too. That’s to warn the pedestrians we’re approaching from behind.

“So what do you want me to do?”

“Feet on the pedals – and pedal.”

The guy up front has to clearly announce every action he is about to make: “Coasting!”

“Up-shifting!”“Braking!”“Turning left!”“Stopping!”

By now, both you, the reader, and the stoker must be thinking, “That guy up front is a dictator spelled with a capital D!”

It was great to see Steve take the time to put a smile on my lil guys face. It’s not the first time Cst Whitehorn has taken time out of his day to say hello to everyone. Hats off to him and our Cornwall Police for the excellent work they do!

TAKE YOUR CHILD TO WORK DAY

AN eight-year-old girl went to her father’s office on “Take Your Child To Work Day.” As they were walking around the office, the young girl started crying and getting pretty cranky. Her father asked what was wrong with her.

As the staff gathered around, she sobbed loudly: “daddy where are all the clowns you said you worked with?”

If so, get in touch with Heather MacIntosh, she hopes to form the Glengarry Chamber Choir this fall. Email her at hmacintosh@ rogers.com or call 613-347-2794.
