Making maps IT’S A FACT! EMMA MELDRUM CITY OF CORNWALL
Denis Lalonde is the City’s GIS (Geographic Information Systems) Specialist – he takes layers of data and transforms them into maps. You’ve likely seen our detour maps on
social media, and you may have used his Trash to Treasure map to find community yard sales and giveaways last month. A lot of Denis’s work takes place behind the scenes, where he is an integral part of the Infrastructure team, which manages design and construction of transportation, sewer, water, and recreation projects. Here’s how Denis describes his job: “A lot of what we do is asset management of water, sewer, and transportation networks. What’s important is the condition of these networks. In years past, we would have paved a City street on a ‘worst, first’ basis. Now, we look at what’s underneath. We might
want to rehabilitate the water main and fix the sewer before paving that road. “A fun part of GIS is bringing all that data together and better managing everything.” I hope to bring you more stories about City employees you may not meet, but whose work keeps our City running. We’re using a modern new show, Street Level, to tell these stories. You may have seen the first two episodes on Facebook, where they racked up over 20,000 views each! You can also catch them on YourTV Cogeco (channel 11), where episodes air several times a week. Street Level features City of Cornwall employees and councillors highlighting the
programs, services, and projects Cornwall residents need to know about. You can find most of this information on our website, but this format is even more engaging, and hopefully interesting, too! Keep an eye out for the next episodes on September 28 and October 26. Find the full Street Level episodes at www. facebook.com/thecityofcornwall. You can also reach out with show ideas at emeldrum@cornwall.ca or 613-930-2787 ext. 2157.
Embarking on a new chapter
Behind the scenes with EOTB, CFDC and CREATE LESLIE THOMPSON
& SIMON McLINDEN
Hundreds of new Canadians are about to embark on an exciting new chapter of their lives – and we couldn’t be happier to help them on their way. The Eastern Ontario Training Board (EOTB), and its partners, are set to deliver bilingual employment and settlement services to
more than 1,000 newcomers in SDG and Prescott-Russell, over a five-year period. A key necessitation to growth in this region is the attraction of newcomers. In order for companies to grow, they need people. This region does not have enough people with the right skills; part of the solution is to provide the right training, and the other part of the solution is to attract people to live here. To help newcomers access the services and programs they require to ensure a successful integration, a centrally-located Newcomer Service Centre has been established by EOTB and its partners at 55 Water Street West. The Newcomer Employment Welcome Services program (NEWS), operates six days a week on a day and evening schedule. The centre houses the LIP, NEWS
MAXIMIZE THE CURB APPEAL OF YOUR HOME!
& Réseau programs for newcomers. The Newcomer Employment Service Centre is armed with all the necessary tools to ensure newcomers are supported. This summer EOTB began the process of creating a solid foundation for success for these new Canadians, thanks to a $1.1-million grant from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). EOTB is focusing its efforts to attract, employ and retain immigrants in our region. Conseil scolaire de district catholique de l’Est ontarien, Job Zone d’emploi, Social Development Council, Local Immigration Partnership (LIP) and Réseau de soutien à l’immigration francophone, provide services and insights to make it easier for newcomers to adapt to their new surroundings. Activities like employment-services,
EAT
language services as well as employment and support services and a host of others are available to help ease the transition. Workplace language and cultural sensitivity training is also provided. A vital part of growing our population in Cornwall and area is by attracting new Canadians to our region to start businesses and contribute to our economy. This work will not only help promote our good quality of life and affordability compared to larger cities, but it will ensure that newcomers will be successful in settling into our community, obtaining employment and contributing to our success.

35 YEARS Leading the way
For 209 years, the Williamstown Fair tradition continues nseebruch@seawaynews.media
WILLIAMSTOWN, Ontario – It was a fair like no other. The 209th edition of the Williamstown Fair and the committee behind its organization, faced the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic head-on. What was produced was something very different than what fair goers were used to, but it was the Williamstown Fair none the less and kept the tradition of Canada’s oldest agricultural fair alive. Rather than taking place in the second weekend of August as is tradition, this year’s fair was pushed back a month to allow time to create something that would work with the

realities that the pandemic posed. The COVID-19 pandemic saw every other agricultural fair in Stormont, Dundas, and Glengarry cancelled, and the same is true for many other events that would usually see large gatherings. On Saturday Sept. 5 at 4 p.m. fair goers were invited onto the fair grounds for the first ever Williamstown Fair drive thru edition. Entering from the Johnston Rd. entrance, patrons in their vehicles drove along the road through the middle of the fairgrounds. Lining the road were all the usual staples of the Williamstown Fair, the livestock, the farm equipment, the classic tractors, scarecrows, art projects and even familiar faces. Members of the public were encouraged to create floats that lined the road featuring various depictions of the best of the Pictured is the official ribbon cutting for the 209th Williamstown Fair.

Erin O’Toole. Duncan backed O’Toole in the leadership race which O’Toole won two weeks ago. “I have a lot of confidence that Erin is the best candidate to unify our Party and to form government in the next election,” said Duncan when he endorsed O’Toole on June 8. “I’ve got to see first hand that Erin has the right leadership skills, and that he has the ability to connect with the voters we need to win over to be successful and to govern Canada.” Duncan will be the Question Period Coordinator for the Conservative Caucus in the House of Commons. The job is fairly self-descriptive, Duncan will be coordinating who in his party asks what and when during Question Period in the Commons. “It is an honour and something that came as quite a surprise. As a new Member of
Parliament, I’m humbled that Erin has selected me for this important job in our Caucus,” said Duncan. “Erin has hit the ground running and done a fantastic job in his tone and messaging as our new leader. I am re-energized and looking forward to this experience on the Leadership Team.” O’Toole’s House Leadership team consists of nine positions including Duncan’s as well as Deputy Leader, House Leader, Deputy House Leader, Quebec Lieutenant, National Caucus Chair, Opposition Whip, Deputy Whip, and Caucus Liaison. Duncan’s predecessor as MP, and mentor Guy Lauzon himself was on the House Leadership team for the Conservative Party for many years as National Caucus Chair and Deputy Whip.

Opportunités de chasse sur les terres de la CNS à l’approche de l’automne COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE DE LA CNS FINCH, Ontario - L’automne approche et c’est un moment privilégié pour de nombreux habitants de la région. L’air frais et vif entraîne un changement de saison et l’été fait place à l’automne et à la saison de chasse. La Conservation de la Nation Sud (CNS) possède et gère plus de 13 000 acres de forêts gérées en communauté, de zones humides et de prairies, dans son bassin versant de 4 441 km² dans l’Est de l’Ontario, dont plus de 8 500 acres sont accessibles à la chasse avec l’autorisation de la CNS. Le coût d’un permis de chasse sur certaines propriétés de la CNS est de 100 dollars pour les résidents du bassin versant, versés à l’Office de protection de la nature. Les chasseurs doivent également avoir un permis provincial du ministère des Richesses naturelles et des Forêts (MRNF) et doivent fournir une preuve d’assurance-responsabilité à la CNS. Les terres de la CNS sont gérées, restaurées et entretenues de manière durable pour les loisirs et la protection du patrimoine naturel local. Certaines de ces aires naturelles
protégées offrent un éventail de possibilités de chasse pour des espèces telles que cerf, orignal, sauvagine, petit gibier et lapin. Les frais de permis contribuent à soutenir les activités de gestion des terres et le programme annuel d’apprentissage de la chasse pour jeunes de la CNS. Les chasseurs doivent toujours faire preuve de prudence et porter des vêtements de haute visibilité lorsqu’ils accèdent aux terres de la CNS, car certaines aires peuvent être fréquentées par plusieurs personnes en même temps. Il est également conseillé aux résidents de se protéger et de protéger leurs animaux domestiques lorsqu’ils explorent la nature pendant la saison de la chasse en portant des vêtements de haute visibilité. La chasse est interdite dans les aires de conservation publiques de la CNS où il existe un réseau de sentiers aménagés. Les résidents peuvent accéder à l’outil de cartographie en ligne de la CNS sur www.nation. on.ca pour savoir quelles propriétés de l’Office de protection de la nature sont autorisées pour la chasse. Toutes les règles de l’Office de protection de la nature et les lois du MRNF s’appliquent aux
aires de chasse de la CNS. Il est illégal de chasser sur les terres de la CNS sans un permis de l’Office de protection de la nature. Veuillez prendre connaissance des conditions de chasse spécifiques à chaque endroit et veillez à toujours garder votre permis de chasse de la CNS sur vous. Pour signaler le braconnage et d’autres
infractions liées à la chasse ou aux ressources naturelles, veuillez appeler la ligne d’information du MRNF au 1-877-847-7667. Pour plus de renseignements et pour accéder au formulaire de demande de permis de la CNS, veuillez consulter le site www.nation.on.ca/recreation/ hunting-and-trapping ou composer le 1-877-984-2948.

Back to school, but for how long? NICK SEEBRUCH

- Seaway News - www.cornwallseawaynews.com
nseebruch@seawaynews.media
It is back to school season, and like everything else, the COVID-19 looms large in the minds of administrators, teachers, parents and students alike. As an outside observer, I have seen different approaches from each of the local school boards and I have seen concerns from parents and from students. I think that these concerns are justified, because despite the best efforts of administrators, I don’t see how the 2020-2021 school year will be any less affected by COVID-19 than last year was. The main issue I see, stems from the guidelines for outbreak management given to school boards by the provincial government. The government states, that if a student is exhibiting COVID like symptoms they should be isolated and sent home, and so should their siblings if they have any. Additionally, if the risk warrants it, their whole cohort could be sent home too, and if enough cohorts are sent home, the school could be closed. As a first step for protecting students from COVID-19, I think parents should get themselves tested before their child is back in school. That way at least, they know that their household is not an exporter of the virus on the first day of school. Also, all parents are being told by their school boards that they must screen their child for temperatures and other COVID like symptoms before sending their child to school every day. For context, the Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) list the following as COVID like symptoms: Fever (temperature of 37.8ºC or higher), chills, new or worsening cough, barking cough, making a whistling noise when breathing
LETTERS
(croup), shortness of breath (out of breath, unable to breathe deeply), sore throat, difficulty swallowing, runny, stuffy or congested nose (not related to seasonal allergies or other known causes or conditions), loss of taste/smell, pink eye (conjunctivitis), headache that is unusual or long-lasting, digestive issues (nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain), muscle aches, extreme tiredness that is unusual (fatigue, lack of energy), falling down often, for young children and infants: sluggishness or lack of appetite. Now, when I was in grade school, I had a case of the common cold every second week, which has many of the symptoms listed above, and when I wasn’t sick, my sibling often was. If I was in Grade 6 in the 20202021 school year I would never be in class at school and I think that there will be many students today who could fall into this boat. I asked Dr. Paul of the EOHU how this system could possibly work, and he explained that the Health Unit would work with school boards to assess each case as they occur and determine of cohorts should be sent home. Again, I feel there will be a lot of cases to assess, and also, with a virus that can be transmitted asymptomatically, the spread can be a challenge to track. There is also the issue of testing. I have been tested for COVID four times and each time it took two to three days to receive the results, during which I had to self-isolate. Without same day returns on COVID tests, I feel it is a real gamble to not send the whole cohort home. What if one classmate is sent home with a runny nose and then three days later it turns out they have COVID-19? In the meantime, the rest of the class have been in school possibly spreading the virus amongst

Re: Compromise Dear Editor, I would like to respond to Glen Grant on his opinion to the editor (compromise). I would like to know how many people approached you complaining about wood smoke. I am certain that there a very few compared to the people that enjoy burning. so, you do not represent the majority of taxpayers. It is not that we do not care for people with health issues but what do we do. are we going to stop living because a few people cannot smell smoke? What if we get complaints from car emissions, are we going to stop people from driving? Where does it stop. seems to me every time someone complains about something the majority of good law-abiding citizens suffer the

My right to burn has been taken away from enjoying my property. The rules of this new by law are ridiculous and has taken away the right to burn from the majority of burners.

themselves and the rest of the student body unknowingly. My intention here is not to be alarmist, but it is very important we get this right. Dr. Paul himself has said that pandemics such as COVID-19 have historically had a second wave in the fall that is usually worse and longer lasting than the first wave. The first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic saw schools closed, the economy closed, the border closed, and all events cancelled. Just in the past two or three months we have seen a gradual return to something that looks like normal, can our non-profits, our small businesses and each of us really take another wave worse than the first. This is why it is so important that this be managed and controlled as closely as possible. At the beginning of August, schools in Georgia the United States re-opened. Within hours of one elementary school re-opening on Aug. 6 one Grade 2 student tested positive for COVID-19 causing the whole school to be sent home for quarantine and the school to be
closed. In all nearly 1,200 students and teachers in that school district had to quarantine and the school itself was closed until Aug. 31. I know that this took place in the U.S. and their pandemic management has been, let’s just say less than stellar, but we are seeing similar patterns closer to home. In Quebec, which went back to school in the last week of August, saw 46 schools, out of 3,100 reporting at least one case of COVID19. If this occurred in Ontario, under our provincial guidelines, would this not see many students and their siblings, and their classmates sent home? Health officials in Montreal stated that these numbers were in line with their expectations, but it does not exactly inspire confidence. What do you think readers?

OPINION
The best education minister we never had Claude McIntosh Mac’s Musings
EDITORIAL@CORNWALLSEAWAYNEWS.COM
numbers showed that Cornwall’s unemployment rate had climbed to 14%. Meanwhile, after a provincial arbitrator awarded city police a 15% pay increase, the mayor called on the provincial government to change the process. (Does this have a familiar ring?). Parisien said the increase would create a budgetary nightmare for council. Jim Burke, president of the police association, said the local force still was paid about $1,000 less than OPP officers. But there was a sliver of good news. The Greater York Group, owner of the Brookdale Shopping Plaza, said it would spend $2 million to expand the plaza. A movie theatre would be included in the expansion. ALSO THIS WEEK IN 1975 – Maurice Engels, the city’s first chief administrative officer (CAO) was leaving after 14 months on the job for a senior position with the City of London. (He would become that city’s award-winning CAO). On his way out, he offered some wise advice for city council: Resist being stampeded into making rash decisions on major projects when a delegation appears before you. He also said the city image-changing process has to start within. During his brief tenure Engels found himself dealing with a handful of hostile councillors who had trouble adjusting to the CAO system. ... East Cornwall Business Association proposed that the Montreal Road business district be transformed into a French-Canadian village within the city with special lighting, improved landscaping and benches. Le Village, the proponents said, would be a unique place special to the district’s French-Canadian roots. ... The new city garbage contractor, Biwest, unveiled five new trucks. ... A 102-foot suspension bridge at the 100-acre Grey’s Creek Conservation Area was opened. It was donated by Charlottenburgh Reeve Adrian Gadbois. .... NDP incumbent George Samis was returned to the Ontario legislature by Cornwall Riding voters one year after winning a by-election. He polled 2,682 more votes than Conser vative runner-up Rev. Rudy
Villeneuve. To say Alexandria-Cornwall Bishop Eugene Larocque was not impressed with Villeneuve’s decision to run for office would be an understatement. However, Villeneuve was far more popular among Catholics than the bishop. Unfortunately, they weren’t all Conservatives. ... Truckers delivering 30-tons of steel to the civic complex construction site refused to cross picket lines set up by local unions who were protesting the decision to give a contract to non-union Gordon Construction. The truckers were members of the Teamsters union. It was the first shipment of steel for the project. ...Meanwhile, Samis eased his way into the same pew as the Stormont Christian Council vis-a-vis city council’s decision to allow tourist oriented businesses to open on Sundays. Samis said Sunday was a “special day” and the existing shopping hours were more than sufficient. Cornwall residents, he said, were “exposed” to enough commercialism and needed a day for rest and reflection. TRIVIA In 1982 the Odonto tooth brush factory in Morrisburg was the only plant in Canada manufacturing this product: 1) Dental implants, 2) Electric tooth brushes, 3) Dental floss, 4) Tungsten carbide dental drills, 5) Alcohol-free mouth wash. TRIVIA ANSWER Inverarden was built by Nor’ Wester fur trader John McDonald of Garth in 1816. The last descendants moved out in 1965 when the property was sold to Chemcell. The house was turned over to Parks Canada in 1968 when Chemcell’s plans for a large plant fell through. It was leased to the city as a museum but returned to Parks Canada in 1999. It has been “mothballed” ever since. QUOTED “Who celebrates being 70, for God’s sake. But I guess it beats the alternative.” - Dr. Phil on turning 70.

In my previous column of August 12, I mentioned my research and preparations into the threat of COVID-19 posed by taking any airline flights today. I wanted to fly the Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal triangle to see for myself what the fallout from the pandemic has been. By the way, I did that triangle of flights for another story in 1996. That was during ‘normal times’. 2020: definitely not normal times. Today, any first-hand investigations would show that the airline terminals at Ottawa (MacDonald-Cartier YOW), Toronto (Pearson YYZ) and Montreal (Trudeau YUL) have bold
warning signs, staff in hazmat suits checking temperatures; masks and hand sanitizer are everywhere, distancing rules, and cash as payment is discouraged in favour of plastic. These days, if you are sharing any enclosed area with others you must wear a face mask. It’s as necessary as washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, maintaining social separation in a crowd, or strapping on a parachute if you intend to go skydiving. Airbus, Boeing and Embraer enthusiastically tout the efficiency of their in-flight air purifying and circulation systems. The airlines that fly in and out of these three airports are glad to explain how their terminal staff and cabin attendants meticulously carry out contagion avoidance procedures. Gone are the days of any in-flight drinks, meals or snacks being served in a
civilized manner, for such services come with contagion risks. In these COVID-19 times, flight attendants make a single trip down the aisle, gloved hands perfunctorily passing out bottled water and sad cellophane packages containing nothing but a minimalist sandwich and a chocolate bar. (That MRE-standard of meal service was supposed to satisfy us on our eight-hour long March 18 return flight from Portugal.) Here’s my final decision about taking an airline flight these days: if it’s a matter of ‘life-and-death’ urgency relating to you or a member of your immediate family, go. If taking a flight would determine whether or not you inherit a tidy sum, I’d ask you, “Is it worth possibly robbing you of thirty years of your future?” In my case, my possible longevity might be at risk. A post-trip fourteen-day quarantine would be necessary and difficult to
arrange. If I had contracted something serious, how would the necessary care, perhaps even palliative, be obtained? Since my wife and I and some of our friends are in a vulnerable group, I was definitely unwilling to risk bringing home any contagious virus. Final decision regarding the topic of doing any first-hand report on airline travel these days wasn’t a difficult decision to make. My investigation of airline travel of questionable urgency will definitely not be done by me, at least, not at present. My well-being and that of my wife is too precious to endanger by taking the flights necessary for that first-hand reporting about current airline flying.

Gilles Metivier, the gifted and much respected educator who died last week at age 85 after a long illness, left a huge footprint on the local scholastic landscape. He arrived in Cornwall in 1964 to become principal of a Catholic elementary school. His journey in education next took him to General Vanier Secondary School as vice-principal. When Tagwi Secondary School opened, Metivier was appointed principal. His next assignment was principal of St. Lawrence High School followed by a board superintendent appointment. He joined the Roman Catholic board as director of education and played a key role in establishing St. Joseph’s Secondary School. Known as a visionary and builder, he helped lay the foundation for the alternative school system in the United Counties which gives young adults a second shot at a high school diploma. Bob Kilger, who served two terms as Cornwall’s mayor after a long career as MP for Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry, called Metivier a “class act.” Metivier managed Kilger’s federal and mayoral municipal campaigns. “He was meticulous, highly organized and genuine. There was no pretend in Gilles,” said Kilger. Former mayor and MP Ed Lumley echoed Kilger’s praise. “Gilles was absolutely brilliant,” said Lumley. Metivier worked on Lumley’s federal election campaigns. “A hard worker, a gentleman ... and a good Liberal,” said the former cabinet minister. Lumley said Metivier’s contribution went far beyond politics. “Gilles and his wife were very involved in the community at several levels.”
When this scribbler would see Gilles the standing joke was, “How is the best education minister we never had?” Actually, it was no joke. If the political gods hadn’t interfered, he would have been the education minister in David Peterson’s 1987 government. But he lost the local Liberal nomination to John Cleary in one of the biggest nomination upsets in riding history. Cleary would serve as a good grassroots member sans the clout of a cabinet minister with the premier’s ear. Some will tell you the “Domtar” vote put Big John over the top. A little known story about Metivier’s first few days as the Catholic board’s director of education was a meeting (aka audience) he had with then Bishop Eugene Larocque who started out by telling the new director how to run the school system. Metivier told the bishop, in diplomatic fashion, that they would get along great if the bishop stuck to the religious side of things and he, the director, called the shots on all things education. When I heard that story I realized why I liked the man so much. IN THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR Just months into his first term, Gerald Parisien couldn’t be blamed if he leaned on the idiom, “If it wasn’t for bad luck I wouldn’t have any luck at all”. So it was in his first September (1975) as mayor as one economic brush fire after another popped up on the local landscape. Domtar Fine Papers was shut down when its 1,250 union employees went on strike. Across town TCF suspended production when 375 union members walked off the job. The Sylvania television plant on Vincent Massey Drive closed, putting 200 out of work. Another 50 were without jobs when Versatile Knitting shut down. Domtar Construction Materials announced that 85 employees would lose their jobs when two departments closed. The federal government announced a plan to move the Parks Canada regional office to Peterborough. And, if all that was bad enough, the latest

PHASE 2 NOW OPEN
Time to paint Cornwall gold NICK SEEBRUCH
nseebruch@seawaynews.media
CORNWALL, Ontario – September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month. The gold and white flag commemorating the occasion was raised in front of Cornwall City Hall on Thursday, Sept. 3 by two childhood cancer survivors, Alex Tourangeau and Max Nuttall. Alex’s mom, Cheryl Tourangeau has been involved in raising awareness around childhood cancer since Alex was diagnosed in 2013. “Four to five kids are diagnosed with cancer per day in Canada, and 20 per cent of them won’t make it,” she said. Cheryl Tourangeau went on to explain that less than five per cent of funding for cancer research goes towards researching childhood cancers. This leads to lack of tailored treatments for children who often have to be treated with the same procedures and medications as adults.
For the month of September, the Cornwall Optimist Club will be holding a No-dinner dinner to raise money for organizations that support children with cancer. For $10 contributors can support organizations like Ronald MacDonald House, the Candlelighters and CHEO. Tickets are available on the Optimist Club website. Tourangeau said that a No-dinner dinner is a way to raise money in the age of the COVID-19 pandemic, while keeping everyone, especially cancer survivors with compromised immune systems, safe. To help raise awareness, in addition to the fundraiser, there will be golden rocks hidden around Cornwall that have been painted by the Cornwall Junior Optimist Club. Anyone who finds one of these rocks in encouraged to take a picture of themselves with it, and post that picture to the CHEO Facebook page and then hide the rock again for the next person to find.
Max Nuttall, aged 5, with Alex Tourangeau, are both survivors of childhood cancers and are pictured here holding the Childhood Cancer Awareness flag alongside Cornwall Mayor Bernadette Clement. These two boys helped raised the Childhood Cancer Awareness flag in front of City Hall on Thursday, September 4, 2020 (Nick Seebruch/ Seaway News).
