CORNWALL & SDG, Ontario – The CPS and OPP are making back to school safety a priority in the region.

CPS stated that throughout the month of September and into the school year, officers will be monitoring school safety zones to deter speeding and be on the look out for motorists failing to stop for school buses or crossing guards.

“Motorists who fail to stop for a school bus with its upper red lights flashing could be subject to a fine of up to $2,000 and six demerit points, while drivers found speeding through school safety zones are subject to a doubled fine ($4,000 and 12 demerit points),” read a CPS press release.

Cst. Patrick Depratto of the CPS Traffic Unit noted that one of the most common violations is drivers failing to stop for school buses or speeding.

CORNWALL, Ontario – In a vote of 8-3 at their meeting on Monday, Sept. 9 Cornwall City Council voted to put an end to wood fueled outdoor fires.

The repeal was based on a recommendation from Cornwall’s Fire Chief Pierre Voisine who explained that a limited number of Open Air burn permits were resulting in a large amount of complaints for his department to deal with.

“The data is telling us that there are issues with the performance of the by-law,” said Voisine. “The majority of complaints against well intended people who follow the by-law, but who create smoke issues in their area and neighbours call in to complain.”

While Voisine admitted that open air

wood fires had not resulted in any damage to buildings he did recommended that the by-law allowing open air burn permits be repealed an replaced with one that only allowed fuel based open air fires.

“Fuel based appliances are now available at reasonable cost,” he said. “I suggest we roll back wood based open air fires in the City, and let residents use fuel based systems without a permit.”

Councillor Claude McIntosh endorsed the repeal and argued that this was a quality of life issue for some residents.

“I’ve received several complaints from the City from people with breathing complaints. Some are having a bonfire using wood the Medical Officer of Health tells us is no good, and they have to close their windows, and I don’t think they should have to do that,” he said.

Knox St. Paul’s celebrates 10 years NICK SEEBRUCH nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – Knox St. Paul’s United Church celebrated their 10 year anniversary at their current location on Twelfth St. in Cornwall on Sunday, Sept. 8 with a congregational lunch.

“To me it speaks of resiliency,” said Rev. Erin McIntyre. “Someone said to me today, ‘what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.’ Moving churches can decimate a congregation, but not only have we survived, but we have thrived.”

Also thriving is the congregation’s Sunday School program, run by Dawn Ostler. Ostler had been a Sunday School teacher for 20 years, and returned to Knox St. Paul’s this past spring after a hiatus.

“There is nothing more innocent than children, and I think there is some selfishness to this, because I love their innocence and there is not a lot of innocence in the world right now,”

she said.

Ostler explained that she feels that Sunday School provides an early opportunity for children to learn and make choices. She said that her curriculum often follows the sermons that the adults hear upstairs.

“Today, I talked about the Creation, and connected that discussion to flora and fauna and sustainability,” said Ostler.

“Drivers who pass a stopped school bus with its upper red lights flashing face fines of $400 to $2,000 and six demerit points.

Subsequent offences carry higher fines and possible jail time,” read an OPP press release.

In 2018, 24 pedestrians were killed in OPP jurisdictions, with inattentive driving being the primary cause in seven deaths.

Health Unit warns of purple heroin in Cornwall

Vibrant communities

nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – The Vibrant Communities initiative being spearheaded by the Social Development Council (SDC) has identified more than 700 action points to make Cornwall a safer and healthier space.

In July, more than 100 people associated with Vibrant Communities met at the Cornwall Civic Complex to discuss priorities to improve the quality of life in the City of Cornwall and to help develop the framework for a Community Safety Plan.

The Community Safety Plan is a provincially mandated requirement for all municipalities to form and implement by 2020. The Cornwall Police Service (CPS) applied for a grant to help fund the formulation of Cornwall’s Community Safety Plan and are partnering with Vibrant Communities in the plan’s creation.

There are four pillars that the focus group identified, which are mental health, health services, poverty and community safety.

To accomplish its goal, the SDC has partnered with the City of Cornwall, the United Counties of SD&G, Akwesasne and organizations throughout these communities.

“Because of Vibrant Communities I think our plan will be excellent because of these cooperations,” said SDC Executive Director Carilyne Hébert.

As stated, the focus group held in July identified more than 700 initiatives that could be included in the Community Safety and WellBeing Plan, but they seek to narrow their focus.

To do that, the SDC and Vibrant Communities are going out into Cornwall, Akwesasne and the

CORNWALL, Ontario – The Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) is warning of the presence of purple heroin in Cornwall. Purple heroin is a mix of deadly drugs including heroin, methamphetamine and more.

“There have also been reports that a blue substance is circulating. These substances could come in the form of a powder, or a putty-like or denser more rock-like substance. The EOHU has not received a laboratory confirmed report of the contents of the substance. However, similar substances have tested positive for Fentanyl and its analogues, such as carfentanil, throughout the province,” reads a statement from the EOHU. The EOHU characterizes Fentanyl and Carfentanil as toxic opioids responsible for a significant increase in overdoses across North America. Carfentanil is a more powerful variation of Fentanyl designed for use on large animals and is in no way safe for humans to use.

Carfentanil is around 10,000 times more powerful than morphine.

“People who are using street drugs or counterfeit medications in our region may not realize that their drugs might have been cut with substances that can be deadly in tiny doses,” warns Dr. Paul Roumeliotis, Medical Officer of Health with the EOHU. “As always, the safest option is not to use street drugs or counterfeit medications at all. You should only use medications that have been prescribed by your healthcare provider and dispensed by a pharmacy.”

Cornwall Police Service (CPS) can confirm that drugs including heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine and crystal methamphetamine have been seized by police through investigations, as recently as Aug. 28. Drug seizure analysis is conducted off-site at a Health Canada facility, so CPS can not confirm specifics surrounding purple heroin.

“The CPS is working diligently to combat drug trafficking and distribution in the City of Cornwall. Our Street Crime Unit has conducted a number of evidence-based drug investigations targeting traffickers of opiates and other illicit drugs. So far in 2019, the CPS has executed 12 search warrants and has laid a total of 207 relevant drug charges from the Criminal Code, Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, as well as the Cannabis Act. In addition, a total of $232,174 worth of drugs and currency has been seized as a result of these investigations. We are continuing to work closely with community stakeholders and law enforcement partners to prevent these drugs from entering our community. We recognize the complex social challenges of drug use and the dangers it poses to public safety. The CPS has taken the proactive measure of equipping all frontline patrol officers with naloxone kits,” said CPS Inspector Chad Maxwell of the Field Operations Division.

Anyone with information on illegal drug activity in the City of Cornwall is encouraged to contact CPS’s anonymous tip line at 613-9335000 ext. 2404.

ADVERTORIAL

Juno Award winner Keith Glass to play Live@thePortTheatre CORNWALL, Ontario – Keith Glass has a long pedigree in music, having won six Juno Awards with Prairie Oyster along with numerous CCMA’s , Glass is amongst the best when it comes to Canadian rock and country music.

Now, he is coming to Cornwall with the Keith Glass Band, who will be performing at The Port Theatre on Saturday, Sept. 28.

Glass explained that growing up in Toronto, he found early influences in Rock & Roll and R&B, citing musicians like Ray Charles and The Beatles as early influences.

“I grew up in a generation when there was so much great stuff on the radio,” Glass said.

Many of the songs that The Keith Glass Band will be performing on the 28th, will have been written by Glass himself, and even a few from his past.

“I always sprinkle in a couple of the songs I wrote during Prairie Oyster’s life,” he said.

Glass said that there is a little something for everyone.

“There are shades of bluegrass, and country in there and a strong element of Rock & Roll,” he said. “If you’re a fan of music and great sax and guitar playing it will be a great show.”

Larry Sylvain, Owner of The Port Theatre said that this is just one example of some of the great acts coming to his venue.

“I’m trying to showcase Canadian talent with bands of this stature, I think it is great for the community to be able to come out and listen to these guys,” he said.

For Glass, this won’t be his first time performing in Cornwall. Glass remembers coming to Cornwall in the 1980s .

Tickets to see the Keith Glass Band are available at the Port Theatre box office and online at https://theporttheatre.com/live-events.

Councillor Claude McIntosh shot down the enforcement argument, pointing out that many of these complaints would be made when the office is closed.

“We talk about By-Law Enforcement, they close at 5 p.m. how are they going to respond to this,” he said.

Councillors Claude McIntosh, Elaine MacDonald, Syd Gardiner, Carilyne Hébert, Maurice Dupelle, Glen Grant, Todd Bennet and Mayor Bernadette Clement voted in favour, with councillors Dean Hollingsworth, Justin Towndale and Eric Bergeron voting against.

Shorty Jenkins Classic offers Olympic qualifying points

CORNWALL, Ontario – In its fifth fantastic year, organizers have already registered over 90 teams for the Shorty Jenkins Classic, held from Wednesday, Sept. 11 to Sunday, Sept. 15 at the Cornwall Curling Centre.

Champion curlers from around the world will be in attendance this year, especially as this is the first time locally that teams can accumulate points towards qualifying for the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing.

Spectators are recommended to purchase tickets in advance and attend early as the seating capacity of the venue caps out at 250 guests, and many are expected to be in attendance watching all of the action.

“Teams are going to be starting to arrive Sunday (Sept. 8) night. Things are ready to go… the ice is ready to go, people will practice on Monday (Sept. 9). Anyone is welcome to watch teams practicing, free of charge,” said organizer Kevin Baker, who believes the event is shaping up to be one of the best ever. “The organizing committee is looking forward to the event.”

“This year…attracted (Women’s) teams such as Jennifer Jones, Rachel Homan, Tracy Fleury, Eve Muirhead (Scotland), Anna Hasselborg

(Sweden), Jamie Sinclair (US), while the Men’s division will also have the usual stars such as Brad Gushue, Kevin Koe, Glenn Howard, Mike McEwen, John Epping, Brad Jacobs, Thomas Ulsrud (Norway), Bruce Mouat (Scotland) and others,” reads a press release from the Shorty Jenkins Classic organizers.

The team organizing the classic said that it is a boon for Cornwall to host such a prestigious event.

“With a list of participants such as this, the Cornwall event has been dubbed a mini-slam by the World Curling Tour committee. It would be akin to having the Rogers Cup tennis events that just finished in Montreal and Toronto, taking place here in Cornwall, except that it’s curling,” the press release reads.

“Residents of Cornwall can look forward to seeing the best of the best coming to Cornwall,” said Baker in an interview with Seaway News. “It is pretty exciting for Cornwall to be hosting such an event. There will be 18 of the top male teams in the world coming here.”

Tickets can be purchased at the door or online at shortyjenkinsclassic.com through Eventbrite.

Reeling in a win at Renegade Bass

CORNWALL, Ontario – The 24th Renegade Bass Tour crowned new champions on Sunday, Sept. 8.

“This is the best fishing in the world here in Cornwall as far as I’m concerned,” said tournament MC Stefan Wenek.

The two day tournament launched from Cornwall’s Marina 200 the day before, with 40 teams participating.

On the second day, two Cornwallites brought home big catches with Scott Lecky bagging around 22 lbs worth of bass, and Ryan Flaro bringing in 20.15 lbs.

Johnny Fidaoui and Aaron Powell were awarded as the Renegade Bass Tours 2019 Rookies of the Year, with Ashley Pilgrim and Josh

Luloff winning Team of the Year.

The team that came in first and won the $85,000 boat and the trophy were the team of Scott Lefevbre and Mario Formica of Stittsville and Richmond respectively.

Lefevbre and Formica fished exclusively in the deep water and it clearly paid off. On Saturday they brought in 23.84 lbs of bass and 25.06 lbs the second day.

Lefevbre and Formica said that until their bag was weighed, they thought for sure they were going to come up short.

“We are really bad judges of our weight and didn’t think we were that close,” said Lefevbre.

All caught fish were well taken care of and returned to the St. Lawrence River.

Teachers continue to bargain

CORNWALL, Ontario – After a PA Day on Tuesday, all students in Cornwall and the surrounding area are back at school as of Wednesday, Sept. 4. Their teachers however, are on the job without a working contract. The contract between the Ontario government and the teachers unions expired on Saturday, Aug. 31.

The Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association (OECTA) says that it remains optimistic that a strike or any disruption to the school year can be avoided.

“We are still at the bargaining table,” said Michael Hamilton, President of OECTA’s Eastern Region. “We will continue with negotiations as long as they are productive.”

The Ontario Secondary School Teachers

Federation (OSSTF) which represents highs school teachers has petitioned the Ontario Labour Board to intervene.

“We were not able to come to an agreement at the table,” said Adrienne McEwen, Teacher Bargaining Unit President with OSSTF. “The Labour Board will review the positions of the government and of the union and rule whether they are valid.”

Back in May, teachers were outside of Stormont, Dundas and South Glengarry MPP Jim McDonell’s office protesting education reforms made by his Progressive Conservative government.

These changes included increasing class sizes and cutting some programs.

I’m taking the Hunger Awareness Challenge NICK SEEBRUCH

8 - Wednesday, September 11, 2019

- Seaway News - www.cornwallseawaynews.com

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

This week I’m taking part in a challenge to raise awareness around hunger. As of Monday, I’m eating as a client of the Agapè Centre would eat.

I’ve been given a limited number of groceries from the Agapè Centre’s food bank and had a budget of $10 that I could spend throughout the week.

The goal of this exercise is for me to share my experience of what everyday life is like for someone supported by the food bank, while at the same time, I’ll also be raising money for the Agapè Centre.

I’m also allowed to eat at the Agapè Centre soup kitchen, but I haven’t taken advantage of that service yet.

The first take away I have from this experience is that living with food insecurity, on a restricted budget, is a life of choices. I can use butter or oil for cooking, not both, I was allowed to take either peanut butter or jam from the Agapè Centre food bank, not both, and I can drink either milk, tea, or water, but I guess tea is a combination of milk and water anyway.

As for my $10 budget, I found even more difficult choices there.

I could get a lot of junk food for $10, but instead, I wanted to stretch that as far as I could and get as many food groups and flavours as I could.

For $10, I got four ¼ chicken legs, an onion, half a pound of green beans and a lemon. Right there, I think I have two or three dinners.

I consider myself a competent chef, and I love cooking flavourful meals with all-natural ingredients, and I’m going to give it my best shot this week, but I could see how living with food insecurity from day-to-day would wear a person down eventually.

I don’t have to make choices about buying simple medication like Advil, but I’m sure that there are those who do. I’m someone who likes to have a beer or go out for dinner and this week I will abstain from that, but I could see that being untenable for me to keep up in the long term. I also can’t go to Tim Hortons, which is a place I would frequent on a daily basis. Tim’s is something I’ll miss this week, but there are those out there who cannot afford to go to Tim Horton’s at all, and buy groceries, or pay rent. There are so many difficult decisions that those living with food insecurity face every day, what I’m experiencing is only a small glimpse into that world.

The Agapè Centre’s food bank and soup kitchen provide an important service for our community and I’m sure that there are many who depend on this service. The Agapè Centre’s soup kitchen serves roughly 150 individuals daily. Their food bank serves around 1,700 individuals every month.

Along with my experience in the Hunger Awareness Challenge, I am also raising funds for the Agapè Centre. If anyone would like to contribute to my fundraising campaign, please email me at nseebruch@seawaynews.media or mail a cheque to the Agapè Centre with a note stating it is to support Nick Seebruch in the Hunger Awareness Challenge. Cheques to the Agapè Centre can be mailed to 40 Fifth St. West, Cornwall, ON, K6J 2T4.

Everything counts Dear Editor, As people, in a country where intelligent thoughts and actions are almost reflexive, there is one single environmental action all drivers might take. To accept, and follow, the rules of the road. We should stop speeding for it is questionable if speeding gets us to our destinations more rapidly. Without question, the way in which we drive our automobiles has an incredible environmental impact, at the same time elevating the potential for unpleasant consequences.

To extract maximum environmental value from our daily driving habits we simply have to follow the rules of the road. For example, when we exceed given speed limits we not only break the law but we increase the carbon dioxide levels directly impacting on the World’s climate problems. At the same time as we increase the potential for a collision.

It is quite irrelevant to quote ‘Canada only contributes two per cent to global warming’ - everything counts. Imagine multiplying two per cent by ten countries, we would now have twenty per cent. Every percentage point counts.

Many of our politicians, particularly those of a certain political stripe, deny there is a global warming problem, created by man.

They are wrong, The environmental activists, including the present leader of the

political Green Party in the federal government, caused this gross misunderstanding in the first place. Global warming is a natural phenomenon but we humans are exacerbating the problem.

It is not surprising that those who reject the current concept of global warming cannot bring forth an alternative explanation for the terrible forest fires and flooding endangering so many people around the world. Further, if those who reject the global warming perspective do have an alternative rationale, they surely do not share it with the public at large.

If anyone does have an alternative causal reason for global warming please share it with us and, at the same time, tell us how you would deal with it. The Premier of Ontario has, at great cost to the taxpayers, challenged an environmental program in Ontario and Canada - one that was created by our national government. Significantly, he and all those close to him do not provide an alternative rationale or remedy. Even more significantly, the Premier has failed in his challenge; the courts of law do not agree with him. The courts of law agree with the majority of Canadians.

create understanding across cultures in the community.

For six years he served on the RCMP’s national committee on diversity.

In the early 1990s he took a bold plunge into politics and ran for mayor. In a six-person field he finished third in a tight three-way race in which incumbent Ron Martelle was re-elected.

His long list of honours and awards included Cornwall Citizen of the Year, the Order of Canada and the Queen’s Silver and Golden Jubilee medals.

An immigration magazine in 2010 named him one of Canada’s top 25 immigrants.

He was a gentleman with a big heart.

He retired from the StandardFreeholder as one of its most respected journalists, and the standing-room crowd at his retirement party at the RCAFA Wing was a cross-section of the community.

Shortly after he moved to Kirkland (the company his wife worked for re-located to Montreal) but return to journalism as a columnist with the Seaway News. At some point, he planned to move back to Cornwall.

A celebration of his extra-ordinary life

THIS WEEK IN 1971: Cornwall was one of the stops on Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau’s five-day whirl-wind tour of Eastern Ontario ridings. He spent two hours speaking and taking questions in front of crowded General Vanier Secondary School auditorium.

• Ald. Roy Brunet announced that he would run for mayor in the December municipal elections. Mayor Nick Kaneb was expected to seek re-election (He would be upset by city businessman Ed Lumley).

• The province announced that it would spend $110,000 on renovation to the ancient Cornwall Jail.

• The 538 members of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation employed by the United Counties public board agreed to a new contract the put the annual salary of a Level 4 (13 years experience) teacher at $15,400. Range for vice-principals was $18,750 to $19,750, while salaries for principals ranged from $19,000 to $22,500.

• A fire service report to council recommended that the city look at re-structuring the fire department to include parttime firefighters.

• The city was negotiating with the province to rent court space in the new Justice Building. The province had been renting court space in St. Columban’s Hall.

• A third gymnasium was approved for Glengarry District High School.

• A parks and recreation report showed that a total of 111,326 visits were made to large city pools during July and August. Busiest were Kiwanis (17,645, St. Joseph’s (16,860) and Riverdale (16,253).

Perhaps it was fate that brought Sultan Jessa to Cornwall in 1972.

Whatever it was, he made Cornwall his adopted home and the community was better for it.

An accomplished journalist working for East Africa’s Daily Nation newspaper in his native Tanzania , he fled the country with his family with little more than what they could carry with them when the East African country introduced forced relocation and nationalization that took direct aim at families of Indian descent who had helped build the country’s flourishing economy. The Jessa family owned (and lost) a tea plantation.

Soon after arriving in Canada, a country he knew little about, and he knew ever less about Cornwall, he was hired by the Standard-Freeholder to fill a vacant senior reporter position.

The timing was perfect. If he had arrived a day later the position would have been filled and he would never have made Cornwall his home.

“I left everything behind and had to start all over again,” he told an immigration magazine a 2010 interview. “it wasn’t easy.”

But against all odds, he endured, even after his first winter experience, a brutal one even by Canadian standards.

Outside the newsroom, he quickly became part of the community. His involvement started with the Rotary Club, which he belonged to in East Africa, and quickly spread to other organizations. He was even in charge of the Santa Claus parade for two years. Someone in the newsroom suggested he should took on the role of Santa in the parade.

He was instrumental in organizing various multicultural organizations to

they described as a “sea of mud.” Some councillors said the street should be moved up from its 23rd place on the paving priority list because a new high school had been opened in the area. Mayor Nick Kaneb warned against making promises “we can’t deliver on.”

• The Fireside Lounge at the Torch Room on Highway 2 (Vincent Massey Drive) held its official opening.

• St. Regis Braves captured the Interprovincial Junior Lacrosse League championship with a 17-15 win over Cornwall Celtics. Travis Cook won the regular season scoring title, while team-mates Ernie Mitchell was regular season MVP and Norm Piche was playoff MVP. Frank Benedict was named coach of the year.

TRIVIA ANSWER: In 1979 the paper mill’s name was changed to Cornwall Fine Paper Mill from Domtar Pulp and Paper Ltd. but remained in the Domtar Inc. family.

TRIVIA: In 1915 George and William Hollister opened this business. In 1930 it was purchased by R. J. Brown and operated until the mid-1960s. It was 1) Hollister’s Grocery Store, 2) East Side Dairy, 3) Cornwall Commercial College, 4) Smith Hardware, 5) Collins Confectionery.

FACTS’N’FIGURES: Garage owner E. D. Warner launched Cornwall’s first motorized taxi service in 1911 from his garage - Warner’s garage at 32 Second St. W. - which sold Shell gas and Chrysler and Plymouth vehicles It was between the Cornwallis Hotel and Shirley’s Restaurant.

The garage was destroyed by fire on Nov. 29, 1951. The first “cab” service was started in 1873 when Thomas Murphy transported people in a horse-drawn carriage. After the Second World War, a group of veterans founded a taxi company and called it Veteran’s Taxi.

Intact, Warner Insurance support mental health in Cornwall NICK SEEBRUCH nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – On Tuesday, Aug. 20, Intact Insurance and local Intact broker Warner Insurance contributed $4,500 to support mental health services in Cornwall.

They presented a cheque for that amount to Cornwall’s Sunrise Rotary Club and the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) who will use the funds to support their programs.

“We are very pleased to support the Rotary Club and the Sunrise Foundation Inc so they may continue the great support for youth in Cornwall and the surrounding area,” said Deborah Moore, Branch Director for Intact.

Peter Labelle, President of the Sunrise Rotary Club and IT Manager at the Cornwall branch of the CMHA said that this funding will go along

way towards supporting mental health promotion in the region and breaking the stigma around mental illness.

“Mental health promotion is something that is not funded by the Ministry of Health,” said Labelle.

Rotary member and Manager at Warner Insurance Sebastian Warner said that he was happy to help support that cause.

“We see a need and applied for the funding,” said Warner.

Funding was provided through the Intact Foundation, which since 2004 has donated over $31 million to charitable causes across the nation.

Si les installations existent, les gens viendront au sein d’une formidable équipe, le logement est abordable dans la collectivité et de là, on a rapidement accès aux grands centres. Ce sont là des caractéristiques qui ont aidé l’HCC dans ses récents efforts pour recruter des médecins.

Par suite du recrutement des médecins suivants, il y en a maintenant suffisamment pour tous les quarts au Service d’urgence : Keir Maharaj, Mahood Hasan, Olivier Saleh et Nathalie Codsi (tous de Montréal). Quant au

cinquième, Andrew Jacques, il est d’Ottawa.

Chacune et chacun d’entre eux possède une formation spécialisée additionnelle en médecine d’urgence.

Le programme « Parrainez un médecin résident » de la Fondation de l’Hôpital communautaire de Cornwall (FHCC) a accueilli ses deux premiers étudiants, le D r Michael Heseltine et la Dre Brittany Aziz. Ils acquièrent l’expérience nécessaire à la spécialisation en médecine d’urgence et ils s’engagent pour

COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE DE LA CCH CORNWALL, Ontario - Voilà maintenant cinq ans que le projet de réaménagement de l’Hôpital communautaire de Cornwall (HCC) s’est terminé. Grâce à des caractéristiques telles qu’un service d’urgence agrandie, des salles d’opération et d’imagerie diagnostique modernisées et universelles comprenant un tomodensitomètre et un appareil d’imagerie par résonance magnétique, l’établissement suscite un grand intérêt. On peut y travailler

deux années additionnelles auprès de l’HCC et de la communauté.

L’HCC utilise de multiples stratégies de recrutement : la participation aux salons d’emploi, les avis de postes vacants dans le Journal de l’Association médicale canadienne, la communication avec les écoles de médecine et l’utilisation de ProfessionsSantéOntario (un organisme provincial de promotion et de recrutement qui participe à la planification, au recrutement, au maintien en poste, à la transition et la répartition des praticiens de la santé en Ontario). Ces efforts ont récemment permis d’attirer dix médecins à l’HCC. • La Dre Leslie Stephens (chirurgienne générale) arrive de London. Elle a déménagé dans notre région et fait maintenant partie de la Cumberland Clinic.

• La Dre Reina Yao (chirurgienne orthopédiste) était auparavant à Vancouver et à London.

• La Dre Katie Lepage a fait sa résidence à l’HCC. Elle y est maintenant de retour en tant qu’hospitaliste.

• Le Dr Dale Peffer (hospitaliste) arrive de Saskatoon.

• Le D Antonio DiCintio, (hospitaliste) est un nouveau diplômé l’Université d’Ottawa • Le Dr Hooman Ghomeshi (anesthésiste) arrive de Strathroy, en Ontario. Il travaille aussi au Service d’urgence.

• La Dre Maryam Yazdan (psychiatre) est une nouvelle diplômée de l’Université de Sherbrooke.

• Le Dr Sanjai Dayal est un psychiatre provenant de l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard.

• Le Dr MacArinze Ojiaku (radiologue) est un nouveau diplômé de l’Université d’Ottawa.

Il a également suivi une formation complémentaire en imagerie et en intervention abdominales à l’Université Harvard de Boston.

• Le D r Nima Mohammad-Shahi (ophtalmologiste) est actuellement à Boston. Il se joindra à nous en novembre.

atelier « On jases-tu ? » ayant pour thème : « Être à l’écoute des participants », aura lieu le mercredi 18 septembre à 13 h 30 et le deuxième atelier « On jases-tu ? » ayant pour thème : « Être à l’écoute des bénévoles », aura lieu le mercredi 25 septembre à 13 h 30.

Parkinson Superwalk expecting 200 participants CORNWALL, Ontario – In its eighth year in Cornwall, the Parkinson Canada Superwalk is expecting to draw double the participation as last year’s event with organizers projecting around 200 philanthropic walkers on Saturday, Sept. 14.

“We’re expecting a very good turnout,”

D.R. fencing

noted Earle DePass, this year’s event organizer.

DePass, who was asked to take over coordination efforts, said that his late uncle lived with Parkinson’s disease, so he has a personal understanding and experience with the disease.

Walkers can register from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the RCAF Wing 424. After speeches commencing around 11 a.m., walkers can embark on a 1 km or 2 km course.

DePass said that a majority of the 17

individuals helping to organize the walk also live with the disease.

“I think they’re very keen on seeing the walk run smoothly and that funds are given to the intended recipients,” said DePass, who explained that a support group that meets once every month in Cornwall to discuss new material and exercises, will benefit from the walk.

This year’s fundraising goal for the walk is to reach $30,000. Walkers can download pledge

Petition circulates for Sunday busing NICK SEEBRUCH nseebruch@seawaynews.media

busing could result in an increase of taxes or of fares.

“We try to keep the budget in line as it is,” he said. “I’m not saying that Sunday service is not necessary. Don’t get me wrong, I would do this but it would have to be at a reasonable cost.”

Councillor Claude McIntosh said that he would be against the issue based on the cost.

“The cost would be prohibitive,” he said. “You see the buses running half full now and that’s during the day time. I would definitely be against it. When your manager lays out the cost . . . it would be cheaper to send them by cab and pick up the tab.”

Councillor Justin Towndale, who sits on the Transit Committee said that he understands people’s desires for a Sunday service.

“I’m not surprised. I’ve said the need is there,” he said. “There is a lot of shift work in the city, and many businesses and industries are open on Sundays. I’ve had business owners tell me they it can be difficult to schedule employees on Sunday because they might not have the ability to get to work.”

Towndale did say however that he was open to exploring the issue further.

“I don’t believe we’ve taken a serious look at it in a number of years,” he said. “We certainly haven’t debated the question directly and I think we need to. Its a quality of life issue and accessibility issue. If someone has to work on a Sunday and makes minimum wage, they will very likely spend at least an hour’s pay on a taxi.

As well, if someone requires a mobility device, they’re very limited for options on a Sunday because Handi-Trans isn’t running and we do not currently have any accessible taxis in the city.”

CORNWALL, Ontario – A new petition is demanding that the City of Cornwall re-introduce Sunday service for busing.

The writer of the petition states that by not having a Sunday bus service, the City of Cornwall is discriminating against those who do not have cars.

“The impact of not having any public transit on Sundays is two-fold; it limits the mobility of the individuals and impacts the local economy,” the petition reads. “Non-drivers of all physical ability, age, and socio-economic levels cannot carry out the same level of activities on a Sunday as drivers can and this through no fault of their own. This has a direct impact on the local economy as this segment of non-drivers cannot shop, dine out, go to the movies, attend events, and other entertainment on Sundays. Workers with no transportation must depend on family and friends to get a ride to work!”

Len Tapp, Division Manager for Cornwall Transit, explained some of the hurdles that implementing Sunday busing would face.

“Sunday ridership would be half of Saturdays,” he said. “I’m a transit guy and I would love to have Sunday service, but the cost would be huge.”

Tapp explained that ridership on Saturday, Aug. 31 was 1,500 riders. On top of the low ridership, Tapp said that the review of the provincial gas tax for transit services could mean an increase in the already steep cost for Sunday service. Sunday service would require paying for mechanics, drivers and additional wear and tear on the buses.

In 2017, Council received a report from Stantec that did not list Sunday service as a priority for Cornwall Transit.

Tapp explained that implementing Sunday

CORNWALL, Ontario – For almost 50 years, Meals on Wheels has been helping Cornwall residents with a hot meal and a smile.

The goal of Meals on Wheels has been to provide nutrition, connection and support to Cornwall’s seniors to help ensure that they can live comfortably in their homes for as long as possible.

Meals on Wheels goes to around 100 customers a day from Monday to Friday.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Meals on Wheels Cornwall, is lowering their price by $5 to $32.50 a week until the end of 2020.

“The main goal is to help people stay in their homes longer,” said Andree-Anne Morin, Program Coordinator.

Morin explained that the program provides hot, nutritious meals to seniors, a segment of the population vulnerable to food insecurity.

The meals come with an entrée, soup, salad, and dessert, and in a variety of diets including diabetic, gluten free, puree or minced.

This fall, Meals on Wheels will also be introducing a new weekly frozen meal service, which will provide their clients with more variety and flexibility.

Heather Megill receives SDSG Liberal nomination SHAWNA O’NEILL

soneill@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL & SDSG, Ontario – The StormontDundas-South Glengarry (SDSG) Federal Liberal Association has announced that Heather Megill will be the Liberal candidate in the next general election on Oct. 21.

“I believe in the need to represent the core values of the residents of SDSG in Ottawa and those values are best exemplified within the Liberal Party of Canada,” said Megill in a press release.

Megill was also the Liberal candidate in the 2018 provincial election and has run in past municipal elections. She also ran for a City Councillor seat in 2018. Megill is a retired Upper

Canada District teacher and has been involved in a number of community activities throughout the years. She is also a retired officer with the Canadian Armed Forces, having served with the SD&G Highlanders. She successfully completed the Team Trudeau Nomination Process in SDSG. “I’m humbled and proud to represent this party and the concerns of my fellow residents as we continue to build on the progress we made over the last four years. In this election, Choose Forward,” she said on social media.

Chairperson of SDSG Federal Liberal Association Claude Poirier said in a press release that the campaign has rented a headquarters, ordered signs and believes that Megill will be the next MP for SDSG, especially as there is no

incumbent in the running.

“I’ve heard from a number of residents in the riding who see a need for improved services for senior citizens, while working with all levels of government including the First Nation community of Akwesasne in addressing these needs and other concerns such as infrastructure improvement, and environmentally sustainable economic development,” said Megill.

Megill is the fifth candidate nominated in SDSG. Eric Duncan has been nominated by the CPCs, Sabile Trimm has been selected by the PPCs, the local Green Party candidate is Raheem Aman and Kelsey Schmitz is the NDP candidate.
