NEWS

Your community hospital Amy Gillespie Your Monthly Hospital Checkup Christmas came early this year when Seaway News offered our Foundation a monthly column to share stories about our work for CCH. I’m lucky to have a bird’s eye view of the good work done at our Hospital. Over the coming months, I’ll share positive stories of individuals who work to make our community healthier and write about projects that need help to benefit local patients.

Though our office is located on the first floor of CCH (right beside Tim Horton’s!), we’re an independent registered charity. Our purpose is to raise funds for equipment, spaces and projects enabling exceptional care for local patients. Your donations benefit the frontlines, helping doctors, nurses, technicians and therapists serve those in need.

You might wonder why the hospital needs donations in the first place. Doesn’t Canada have universal healthcare? Shouldn’t the government be paying for everything at CCH? When I first started working here, I was surprised to find out government funding doesn’t go as far

Medical Arts expands to new location

as you’d expect.

Our Foundation helps fill the gaps where government funding stops. We’re proud to support the good health of our community through fundraising and we’re incredibly grateful to all of you across SDG and Akwesasne who give to help others.

Over the last year, community members like you have helped purchase essential equipment including a phototherapy system for newborns, stretchers for our emergency department, pump upgrades for chemotherapy, life-saving defibrillators, heart monitors for CCH’s most vulnerable patients and so much more.

You’ve helped us raise $260,000 towards our $400,000 goal to bring a new mammography machine to CCH. And, thanks to you, we’re bringing new doctors to our Emergency Department. None of this could happen without the amazing generosity of our wonderful community.

This Christmas, Your Credit Union will double donations to our Hospital Foundation during the month of December. To find out more, please visit www.cornwallhospitalfoundation.ca. Working together, we’re making a positive difference right here at home. Seasons greetings from our CCHF family to you!

It’s the most Lumberful time of the year

CORNWALL, Ontario – Medical Arts began 64 years ago on the corner of Montreal Rd. and Arthur St. It has since expanded to a second location in Cornwall, but its home was always on that same Montreal Rd. corner, until now.

This month, Medical Arts Pharmacy moved out of that building it had been in since its founding, but it did not go far. Now located at 165 Montreal Rd., just two doors down, Medical Arts now boasts an expanded space for its expanding family of customers in the southern end of the city. Growing by 800 sq. ft. to 22,000 sq. ft. in total, the new building has allowed the Medical Arts team to

re-organize their work flow at the site to allow for more efficiencies.

“We’ve been planning on this move for five years and it is a big change for us,” said Harry Haramis of Medical Arts Pharmacy.

The new site has a doctors clinic located in the back, along with more parking behind the building.

One of the services Medical Arts offers includes travel consultation with Suzie Pilon, a pharmacist certified in travel medicine.

For their old building, Medical Arts continues to use the space, and will be deciding in the near future what to do with the property on a long term basis.

Home for the Holidays supports Maison Baldwin House MARC BENOIT, SPECIAL TO SEAWAY NEWS CORNWALL, Ontario – It’s not yet time for Santa Clause to make his rounds to every house, but on Saturday, Nov. 30, the public had the opportunity to visit a few key locations around SDG and for a good cause.

Royal LePage partnered with a few homeowners, such as the Cline House Gallery, for the Home for the Holidays fundraiser to raise money for Maison Baldwin House for the second year in a row.

Homeowners opened their homes to the public for a walking tour, featuring Christmas decor, door prizes and good food. Last year, the event raised $7, 000 for the charity, which supports children and women who have become victims of abuse.

“We started the tour at 10 a.m. and we’ve had a steady stream of visitors coming through the home, everyone’s all excited about it and getting into the Christmas spirit,” said Marry Ann Marleau with Royal LePage. “A lot of people have mentioned this is their second year and they really enjoy it.”

“A lot of positive feedback…it’s been very successful in my opinion,” added Marleau.

Each location had a representative from Royal LePage and the team has been planning the event since Jan. 2019.

“We can’t thank them enough, they’ve been with us through thick and thin,” said Debbie Fortier, Executive Director for Maison Baldwin House. “They’re fantastic to work with and we really appreciate what they do for the shelter.

ONTARIO – Over 60,000 high school teachers could be on strike for one day on Wednesday, Dec. 4 if their union, the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation (OSSTF) and their employer and the province of Ontario are unable to reach a deal.

The teachers are striking over mandatory electronic lessons, pay, and class sizes.

“We do recognize that our one-day walkout will cause short-term disruption in the lives of students and parents, and we are disappointed that we’ve been driven to take this job action. We cannot, however, stand aside and do nothing while the long-term interests of students are being compromised by the Ford government,” said OSSTF President Harvey Bischof.

Ontario Education Minister Stephen Lecce urged the union to remain at the bargaining table.

“Strikes hurt kids. Our Government has been clear, we want deals that keep students in class. For teacher unions to leave the table, to turn their back on our children, and to escalate to the point of compromising their education, is deeply troubling for parents and our Government,” Lecce said. “Our Government has demonstrated consistently it is reasonable and student-centric by making major moves that have not been matched or reciprocated by the teachers’ unions. In fact, on the days we made reasonable offers – reducing class room sizes from 28 to 25

and reducing online learning courses from four to two – the unions decided to escalate.

This is wrong, and our students deserve better.”

Bischof said however that he did not believe that the government and management were negotiating in good faith.

“Through months of bargaining, the management team has avoided any meaningful discussion of class size, staffing, mandatory e-learning, or any other issue that impacts the quality of student learning,” Bischof said. “Even in light of our current job action, far too little has changed at the table.

We are left with no choice but to intensify our efforts to defend our education system against a government that has already begun to sabotage it.”

CORNWALL, Ontario – The family owned and operated Endless Roads RV & Marine Centre is excited to celebrate their 10-year anniversary in 2020.

Family are the wheels that keep the Endless Roads RV & Marine Centre rolling.

Lawrence Cayer and his wife Joanne built Endless Roads RV from the ground up, and have been happy to welcome Joanne’s sister Diana Pilon and her husband Marc, who have joined as partners in the past year.

“It is awesome coming to work with your sister every day,” said Diana. “There are no worries when the right hand is always looking after the left.”

“We work really well together and play off each other’s strengths and weaknesses,” Joanne said.

Their parents are also an integral part of the business, with their father Rheal being hands on in licensing, running and so much more. Their mother Judy helps stages RV’s and pontoon boats beautifully so they are ready for presentation to the customers.

Endless Roads RV & Marine Centre are excited to announce that their product lineup will be growing to keep up with the growing demands on their business.

In 2020 Endless Roads RV will be more than doubling its inventory by adding over 120 trailers and 15 to 20 pontoon boats to the Marine Centre.

Their expanding inventory will also include new product lines which the family are excited to unveil.

“There will be a wide array of choice with something for everybody,” Diana said.

Endless Roads RV is open year-round because they find, there is always an interest from their clients, no matter the season, which is why Endless Roads RV has an indoor showroom for the winter months.

“A lot of people like to order units in advance so that they are ready for spring,” said Joanne. “We are finding that trailer and boat customers are looking at products all year round.”

Joanne explained that their growing stock and growing interest is a testament to the popularity of the outdoor lifestyle.

“It speaks to people’s desires for staycations and family-oriented recreation,” she said.

As a family-oriented business, Endless Roads RV & Marine Centre prides itself on providing quality customer service to patrons of family recreation activities.

One of my acquaintances proudly unrolled his pedigree for my delight: the genealogical statement reads: “…there is documented evidence that the ancestry of the holder of this document is in the direct lineage of Sir Eloyo Dershitz III, of County Tidewash, Kent…” His coat of arms resembled a frying pan flanked by two heraldic Griffins (or maybe chickens?).

His DNA report stated he’s 43% Scandinavian, 22% Berber, with traces of Mongol and Lithuanian.

Because my wife was very curious about certain of my behaviours, she eventually convinced me to have my DNA tested. It took over three months for the results to arrive. Here’s what it said: “This individual’s DNA sample can verify the following: 62 % American Eskimo miniature, 23% Australian shepherd, traces of Beagle.

Absolutely no chihuahua, corgi or dachshund.”

Talk about stating the obvious! The first explains why I’m so intelligent, play well with others and have white hair that sheds. The 29% accounts for my high energy levels, penchant for challenging authority and having a tendency to be strong-willed. The last positive is the reason why I’m always wandering off, sniffing around, and checking out all sorts of places before I eventually head home for supper.

They all explain why I lick my plate clean, drink a lot of water, really like going for car rides, quite often stick my head out the side window and am quite often told to go fetch things. Besides, I speak fluent Dog.

Fresh faces at Cornwall’s Volunteer Fair SHAWNA O’NEILL

soneill@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – With over 300 volunteer positions up for grabs across Cornwall, SDG and Akwesasne, fresh faces, as well as long-time volunteers, were welcome at the Cornwall & Area Volunteer Fair at the Civic Complex on Wednesday, Nov. 27.

With 36 organizations registered on display, there was sure to be something to pique everyone’s interest. Carilyne Hébert, Executive Director of the Social Development Council of Cornwall and Area (SDC), expected hundreds to come out by the end of the day, between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Volunteering is uncharted territory for many local residents like Chris Quenville who recently retired and was in attendance to see where he could donate his time and efforts.

“I’m newly retired so I’m thinking of volunteering in the winter months (I’m pretty busy during the summer). There’s some that are

very informative…there’s a lot of good organizations here that need help from people… (especially) if you fit their needs and they fit your time schedule,” said Quenville, who was keenly intrigued with the Agapé Centre.

Hébert explained that in the past, the City would host a similar volunteer exhibition specifically for seniors. This is the first year the Volunteer Fair is open to residents of all ages and is especially targeting youth in the community who may need to fulfill 40 hour requirements or try a new venture. High schools in the region were contacted about the event.

“So many great services wouldn’t be able to operate if it wasn’t for the people coming into the room today,” said Hébert, emphasizLynda Ward and Mary-Jane Proulx of CATTRAP, one organization looking ing the importance of volunteers.

Hébert added that the SDC is currently for volunteers at the event. (Shawna O’Neill/ Seaway News). volunteerhub.ca. working to unveil a volunteer administration such a program.

Wastewater tax increases floated to South Stormont Council SHAWNA O’NEILL

soneill@seawaynews.media

SOUTH STORMONT, Ontario – South Stormont Council met with Watson & Associates Economists LTD. on Tuesday, Nov. 26 to discuss future water and wastewater rate adjustments, considering the proposed implementation of a $30 million Ingleside wastewater treatment plant, projected for 2023.

“We want to ensure that this will be sustainable for future years,” said Mayor Bryan McGillis. “It’s all about strategic planning… trying to do it knowing in advance what costs could be.”

The extensive study conducted by Watson & Associates projects funding needs, water consumption, annual water bills and more within the township over the next 10 years.

The study can be viewed here.

Although Council has yet to approve any recommendations outlined in the study, Mayor McGillis feels that proposed increases in wastewater bills are “still very fair and comparable to the City of Cornwall.” A recommendation will be presented to Council during the December 11 Regular Council Meeting, which will include a communication plan to better help residents understand any proposed changes to property tax and utility bills.

Proposed tax changes include a six per cent increase in the hamlets of Ingleside and Long Sault annually over the next 10 years.

The area of Eamers Corners (including Rosedale Terrace) and St. Andrews would be set to see a delayed increase, beginning at 1.9 per cent in 2026 and 6.8 per cent annually between 2027 and 2029. The community of Newington would not see any proposed

tax change over the next decade.

“Currently, homeowners in Ingleside and Long Sault are charged a ‘Special Area Tax’ included in their property taxes, which is associated with the wastewater systems within the two hamlets. Under the proposal presented to Council, residents in Ingleside and Long Sault will see the Special Area Tax removed from their property taxes and allocated to their utilities bill,” read a Township of South Stormont statement, clarifying the six per cent increase in both areas.

“I would like to see personally, if any increase, do it on an average base…things are expensive today, we need to make sure we do it right in terms of costs,” said Mayor McGillis.

Where to put your money this holiday season NICK SEEBRUCH

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

It is the first week of December and the Christmas shopping season has kicked into high gear.

On Black Friday, the Seaway News team was out in the community talking to local businesses. It was great to see how many people where filling into local stores like Kids Korner, Baxtrom’s YIG, and Cristill Rock.

Christmas is about giving, and when you are out buying gifts to give to your loved ones, take the time to think about where you are giving your business, because that has important impacts on your community.

According to LOCO, a B.C. based organization that conducts research into shopping local claims that independent businesses recirculate 4.6 times more revenue back into the economy. In dollars, independent businesses recirculate $63 of every $100 back into the local economy compared to just $14 from multinational corporations.

The trend continues in the non-profit and charity sector, where independent businesses give back 24 times more to local charities than multinational corporations according to LOCO. Heart of the City and the City of Cornwall

have recently taken steps in the past few weeks to help support local business in Cornwall’s downtown area.

Most recently, Cornwall City Council accepted the annual request from Heart of the City and the Downtown and Le Village Business Improvement Associations to allow free on-street parking for the month of December after 4 p.m.

This might seem like a small gesture, but that is two extra hours’ worth of incentive to shop locally every day between now and Christmas.

Heart of the City has been going even further to support local businesses in Cornwall however. Often, an excuse for not shopping locally is that large multinational stores like Amazon and Walmart have convenient online stores so you never have to leave your house when shopping.

Well last week, Heart of the City announced an initiative to help Cornwall’s main street businesses get an edge in the online market place.

Heart of the City applied for and received a $10,000 grant from Digital Main Street to set up a Digital Service Squad in Cornwall.

The Squad will be supporting small businesses at no cost to them, and will be helping them setup Google Business accounts

and perform a digital-readiness assessment.

“A healthy bottom line includes a solid dose of technological know-how, and we aim to arm our small business owners with the tools necessary to create, augment and succeed with their digital footprint,” said Todd Lihou, Centretown Coordinator with Heart of the City in a press release sent to the media.

If you need anymore reasons to support local businesses, I have two more for you.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

8 - Wednesday, December 4, 2019

- Seaway News - www.cornwallseawaynews.com

Construction

Dear Editor For over one year now I have been asking the City to consistently enforce clearly posted heavy vehicle restrictions on Grant Ave. and Riverdale Ave. Numerous phone calls from myself and other residents of this area complaining about the constant truck traffic over the spring and summer and the attendant noise, dirt and shaking of foundations have been ignored. I was advised by the Ontario Ombudsman to seek legal advice, which I did, and was told that I would have to either launch a class action suit or get a legal injunction to compel the City to address what started out as a fairly small issue.

In a last attempt to make sense of the City’s unwillingness to deal with what appeared to be a fairly straight forward case of a local contractor ignoring a posted bylaw, I submitted a freedom of information request to the City a few months ago. I asked for some basic information pertaining to site inspection reports, completion schedules and road permits using language taken directly from the City’s Subdivision Manual, Section 1, General

Subdivision Design (available on the City’s website) which, I assume, are basic protocols put in place to oversee property development within Cornwall ie. the City’s own rules governing contractor activity.

(Here’s another little nugget I found when reading the Subdivision Manual dealing with Cornwall’s environmental policy.

“Watercourses, Tree Preservation and Environmental Issues: Any design shall have regard for the existing topography, tree coverage and environmental conditions of the property. The Official Plan provides for the preservation of certain natural features including significant wetlands, tree stands, and natural watercourses.

Natural watercourses are to be preserved wherever feasible.

If the watercourse is required to be engineered, the facility should be designed to have natural restoration including tree planting.The existing tree coverage should be retained as much as possible.” Whoever is developing the land east of Power Dam Dr. and contiguous with Tollgate Rd. apparently didn’t get the memo as this area now looks like the landscapes featured in

60 per cent of local businesses say that the usually or occasionally use recycled materials in their business, with seven per cent saying that they always do.

Finally, supporting local business supports your neighbours. These are our friends and family and together, supporting local will always make our community stronger.

What do you think readers?

Do you make an effort to shop local?

post- apocalyptic movies. Adopting a ‘scorched-earth’ policy may be financially beneficial to the developer(s) but total habitat destruction seems, at the least, shortsighted.)

Four weeks later I received a letter indicating that “the records you are requesting do not exist”. That a large company which does a significant amount of business with the City is apparently exempt from following normal procedures for subdivision development came as a bit of a surprise.

Try erecting a garden shed or building a porch without the proper permits and you will probably receive a prompt visit from the City’s building department. If I am incorrect in my assumptions regarding a contractor’s obligations to submit the proper paperwork before the actual completion of the project, then I stand to be corrected. Unfortunately, the City appears to have ‘circled the wagons’ as I have been unable to provoke any kind of response or explanation from City officials.

In light of this frustrating turn of events, I sent an email to all members of City Council and the CAO outlining the sequence

of events over the last year. I explained in detail the nature of the phone calls and emails exchanged with City officials including my attempts to have the Ontario Ombudsman intervene and essentially embarrass the City into following its own rules. I was certain that my inclusion of the results of the freedom of information request would elicit some kind of response as this seems to indicate a fundamental breakdown in the City’s obligation to perform due diligence at the most basic level.

That was six weeks ago and the only response I have received to date is an acknowledgement by two councillors that my email had been received and that ‘they would look into it’.

If this is any indication of how the City functions then we have much bigger problems than our carbon footprint. An unresponsive City Council with little influence over an indifferent senior administration is probably not a good recipe for growth and progress. The lights are on at City Hall but apparently nobody is home.

www.cornwallseawaynews.com - Seaway News - Wednesday, December 4, 2019 - 9

Here’s a fresh wrinkle in the run up to Christmas and the long-running debate over what the season should be called, or not called.

A small band of way-to-the-right evangelicals is calling for Santa Claus to be banished from the season.

You might have noticed some of the madein-Cornwall anti-Santa protesters at one of the city’s busiest intersections who caused an uproar in social media circles. (Sorry, it is called free speech).

The anti-Santa believers say Jolly St. Nick is really Satan dressed up in a red suit and wearing a bushy white beard. And adults who tell the rug rats that Santa is real are on the fast track to hell.

Guess that means Francis Church is burning in hell.

Francis Church?

He was the New York Sun newspaper columnist who in December 1897 penned the famous “Yes, Virginia ...” response to a letter scribbled by eight-year-old Virginia O’Hanlon. She wanted to know if Santa was the real deal?

Church assured Virginia, and thousands of readers, that Santa was indeed alive (living in the hearts of kids). It became one of the world’s most read newspaper columns.

An anti-Santa website (these are folks with too much time on their hands) based in the United States warns “doomed” parents that they need to repent and come clean with their kids.

This means sitting your four-year-old down for a little person-to-person talk about Santa and where those gifts come from.

Of course, if your kid is older than 14 and still believes in Santa, you’ve got a bigger problem.

HERE AND THERE Don’t know why, but I almost feel guilty for not buying anything on

hyped up Black Friday which has morphed into pre-Black Friday week, post-Black Friday and Cyber Monday, all of which is a warm-up for pe-Boxing Week, Boxing Week, Boxing Day and another go at Cyber Monday. ... In 1969 an estimated 200,000 young people (aka hippies) camped out on a dairy farm’s muddy pasture in upstate New York. It was called the Woodstock Festival. It lasted for three days. Lots of drugs. Lots of sex. Lots of rock’n’roll. Incredibly, nobody was shot.

Nobody was knifed. Nobody was assaulted.

Not one arrest. It truly was a love-in. Try that today. ... Thoughts and prayers go out to senior curlers and two great guys, Denis Patenaude and Bob Branchaud, who have been sitting out the first half of the season dealing with medical issues.

THIS AND THAT Another example of why folks lose confidence in the justice system.

Police have warned Ontario residents, especially women, that a dangerous convicted sex offender is on the lam after breaking “strict” conditions of a supervised order tied to his release after a 30-month sentence for sexual assault, assault with a weapon and breaking into a home. He has three previous sexual assault convictions and two convictions for exposing himself (to women). A judge called him a “woman’s worst nightmare.” And this is not the first time he has broken his release conditions.

It once took five years to get him back from California where he fled on the lam. And the guy got 30 months! Next time, how about 30 years. ... Still a few days to go but Chicago is on track for a “good” year when it comes to its murder rate. The city has registered 467 murders this year, most involving shootings. That is 59 fewer than for the same period in 2018.

THIS WEEK IN 1932 - Justice was a lot swifter and harsher in the 1930s. Just weeks after his arrest, an 18-year-old Cornwall lad who admitted stealing a total of $25 from the Nativity Church poor box over several weeks (he was charged with “breaking and entering a House of Worship”), breaking into the James Whitham

The campaign is being spearheaded by the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce, Downtown and Le Village BIAs, and is supported by Cornwall Economic Development.

Every dollar that is spent locally supports the local economy, including wages and commerce. Online shopping may seem attractive, but many shoppers do not realize that shopping locally can be just as convenient yet positively impact their neighbours and their community.

By Bob Peters Cornwall Ontario – Community and business officials are once again touting the benefits of shopping local this holiday season.

With only 6 more weeks to Christmas, the 2019 Shop Local campaign has officially kicked off, highlighting the positive impact of small business – and the patronage of local residents – in all aspects of the community.

“Our small businesses employ hundreds of local people and give back to the community by supporting the arts community and charitable organizations,” says Shannon Lebrun, President of the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce. “Likewise support for local health care and sports programs is crucially important. We hope that area residents will return the favour by continuing to support our local stores and restaurants.”

this Holiday

Wherever you live, chances are there’s a unique holiday tradition that people in your community take part in.

Perhaps it involves a special dish or a particular type of holiday decoration. Regardless, it’s the perfect way to share something unique about your area with friends and relatives over the holidays.

Meet Santa

Find unique presents

Bring the kids along with you and turn your holiday shopping excursion into an outing for the family. The little ones can meet Santa, you can do a bit of browsing and everyone will enjoy indulging in a cup of hot cocoa afterwards.

Support non-profits

Small businesses tend to give more money to non-profit organizations, especially local ones.

By completing your holiday shopping in the area, you’re ensuring they can give generously to organizations that help the less fortunate and other people in your region.

9 Get fresh food

It’s easier to find something truly unique when shopping locally. While you could purchase artisanal creations off the internet, buying something from a local artist ensures it’ll be as special as the person you’re getting it for. Some items can even be personalized.

Enjoy local traditions

If you buy your holiday goods from local shops, you’ll help generate a need to hire more employees. Retail jobs are relatively easy to qualify for, meaning that people who otherwise struggle to find work have a better chance of being hired. This allows them to secure income during the holidays and hopefully year-round.

Visit butchers, breweries, bakeries and gourmet grocers in your area to enjoy an outstanding holiday feast. In fact, buying local is the best way to find exceptionally fresh produce, pastries, meats and dairy products. In some cases, you may even be able to sample them beforehand. Plus, your local retailers can give you advice on how to prepare their products.

Get better customer service

Reduce your carbon footprint

Local business owners are passionate about their products. By buying local, you ensure that you’ll get the very best recommendations possible when making purchases. In fact, personalized customer service is a sure-fire way to guarantee you’ll get the perfect presents for your loved ones. And, even if you don’t, returning items will be a cinch.

6 Stay informed

Shopping locally is the eco-friendly thing to do, especially if you skip the car and do it on foot. Less driving translates to a decrease in fuel consumption and a smaller carbon footprint overall. In addition, local products haven’t travelled long distances to get to you. This holiday season, shop local to help protect the planet.

Visiting local shops during the holiday season is a great way to stay informed about what’s going on in your community. You’ll find out what holiday events are taking place, get insider tips about the best products around and reinforce your sense of belonging.

Support your local economy

Help build your community

Did you know that many small businesses make between 20 and 40 per cent of their annual income during the last two months of the year?

November and December are crucial months and many stores rely on holiday sales to stay afloat. This holiday season, make sure to buy local so you can directly support the area’s economy.

Cafés, craft stores and bookshops are prime venues for events that can enrich your community. Supporting these places allows them to host classes, music shows and more, which helps to both enliven the holiday season and to invigorate the local economy.

Shopping locally is a great way to eliminate stress.

This is because you don’t need to worry about when packages will arrive or the possibility that they might get stolen. Plus, you don’t have to be concerned about returns or exchanges, as these things are super easy to do when you buy your items from the retailers in town.

Les offices de protection de la nature locaux appuient les recommandations de l’Examen indépendant des inondations de 2019 en Ontario

COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE DE LA CNS

FINCH, Ontario - Les offices de protection de la nature locaux sont satisfaits des conclusions de l’Examen indépendant des inondations survenues au printemps 2019.

Douglas NcNeil, le conseiller spécial sur les inondations engagé par le gouvernement de

210193

COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE DE L’ÉCOLE ROSE DES VENTS CORNWALL, Ontario - L’école Rose des Vents aimerait remercier toutes les familles qui ont acheté les cadeaux que nous avons remis à la Société de l’aide à l’enfance de SD&G. Grâce à votre grande générosité, nous avons pu remplir un autobus complet ! Bravo pour votre geste altruiste.

l’Ontario, reconnaît le modèle unique des offices de protection de la nature de l’Ontario fondés sur les bassins versants et son efficacité à réduire les risques et les effets des inondations au minimum.

Les offices de protection de la nature de la région d’Ottawa (Mississippi, Rideau et Nation Sud) ont rencontré M. McNeil et

d’autres organismes en septembre pour faire le point sur les inondations du printemps et discuter des expériences locales. Des idées ont été partagées sur la façon d’améliorer la protection des résidents de l’Ontario et de leurs propriétés en cas d’inondation. Le rapport McNeil contient 66 mesures, et les trois offices de protection de la nature sont heureux de voir les recommandations formulées au cours de ces consultations dans le rapport, y compris la nécessité de : - Mettre à jour les directives provinciales, - Accroître l’attention portée à la cartographie des plaines inondables et aux impacts du changement climatique, - Conserver et restaurer les infrastructures vertes comme les zones humides et les forêts qui stockent l’eau et réduisent les inondations, et - Continuer d’appuyer le rôle des offices de protection de la nature dans la coordination de la planification et de l’action.

Plus précisément, le rapport, disponible sur le site ontario.ca/floodreport, encourage la province à « consulter les offices de protection de la nature sur leur application de l’approche fondée sur les dangers et de l’approche fondée sur les risques dans la gestion

des inondations. » La gestion des inondations est une responsabilité partagée entre les municipalités, les responsables de la gestion des urgences, la province et les offices de protection de la nature. Les offices de protection de la nature travaillent en étroite collaboration avec les municipalités membres pour identifier les zones à risque d’inondation et pour orienter les activités d’aménagement à l’extérieur des plaines d’inondation. L’approche axée sur les bassins versants protège les Ontariens depuis des décennies et a permis d’éviter d’innombrables dégâts majeurs.

Cette approche a également permis de bâtir des collectivités résilientes qui disposent non seulement d’infrastructures de lutte contre les inondations, mais aussi d’importantes « infrastructures vertes » qui réduisent les impacts du changement climatique et des inondations.

Les offices de protection de la nature locaux ont hâte de maintenir et d’améliorer les programmes de gestion des inondations et sont impatients d’aider la province à mettre en œuvre toutes les recommandations énoncées dans le rapport du conseiller en matière d’inondations.
