Raising awareness of epilepsy NICK SEEBRUCH

nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – The City of Cornwall recognized Epilepsy Awareness Day with a flag raising at City Hall on Thursday, March 25, 2021.

Epilepsy Awareness Day itself, which is on Friday, March 26, is also called Purple Day, and is a day where those who support epilepsy awareness are asked to wear purple.

Among those at the flag raising at City Hall was Louise Blanchet, who shared her experience living with epilepsy with Seaway News.

“I have lived with epilepsy since birth. I had petit mals, now called absence seizures, as a child but I was too young to understand or express what I was feeling,” she said. At nineteen I suffered my first grand mal seizure, now called tonic clonic. Only then did I receive a diagnosis of; Congenital Aqueductal Stenosis of large posterior lateral ventricles.

In other words I have narrow tubes at the back of my brain that don’t drain properly

which causes my seizures and auditory sounds; i.e. buzzing in my ears.”

Blanchet explained that there can be a rang of causes of epilepsy includling: head injuries, lack of oxygen at birth, brain tumours, problems in development of the brain, stroke, brain tumours, genetic conditions, meningitis or encephalitis.

Purple Day itself began in 2008 when it was started by a young Canadian girl Cassidy Megan who lives with epilepsy. Megan chose purple for the colour of Epilepsy Awareness because lavender is the international flower of epilepsy.

Blanchet explained how she has learned to cope with living with epilepsy.

“Epilepsy has affected my life in many ways. I have built a shield around myself, also called humour, to try and make people comfortable around me,” she said. “Some people are visibly awkward when they learn of my condition, “you don’t look sick”. I have been treated like an incapable person. I have had

to educate people on how inappropriate it is to make seizure jokes. I did not tell potential employers for fear of being discriminated, this was the 1980’s. To this day I have never had a driver’s license because I’ve never been seizure free for a full year.”

She hopes that initiatives like Purple Day will help promote more understanding around epilepsy.

“I feel some people don’t understand that

epilepsy is more than seizures,” Blanchet explained. “Many people living with epilepsy also live with anxiety and depression. Some of us suffer from memory loss, and lack of balance due to our condition. Some people have asked me if I can control it or “snap out of it”. The answer is; “no, but I wish I could”.

Then there’s the exhaustion, dizziness, anxiety, headaches, confusion, shame, and memory loss after a seizure.”

New photo booth pops up in Lamoureux Park PROVIDED BY CORNWALL TOURISM CORNWALL, Ontario – A new photo booth has popped up in Lamoureux Park to help spread some Cornwall pride and usher in the warmer weather.

The new I Love Cornwall hot air balloon photo booth has become an immediate hit, with people of all ages stopping to show their community pride and grab a pic in the colourful 12-foot high prop set against beautiful Lamoureux Park.

Cornwall Tourism spearheaded the initiative with assistance from the City of Cornwall’s Parks, Recreation and Facilities departments.

Local businesses Long Graphics and Balloon Babes were key in pulling it all together and providing the finishing touches to really give it a realistic hot air balloon look and feel.

“We wanted to create something that would be fun for residents and if it can help promote Cornwall at the same time, that’s even better,” said Amy Malyon, Tourism Coordinator for the City of Cornwall. “The hot air balloon image brings back fond memories for most people from the Lift-Off days, and the idea just sort of took off from there.”

The photo prop will be set up in Lamoureux Park on select days during the spring and summer when the weather is agreeable.

Placemaking is a priority for the City of Cornwall and the new pop-up photo booth builds on previous efforts to create safe and fun experiences in public spaces. Last year, the City of Cornwall added colourful picnic tables to Lamoureux Park and Downtown Cornwall as well as the artistic pop-up sea containers for use by artisans.

“These projects all relate to placemaking and they help make Cornwall a little brighter,” Malyon said.

The hot air balloon booth will be used in conjunction with an upcoming ‘I Love Cornwall’ testimonial campaign by Cornwall Tourism.

“We are asking people to share their photos in the hot air balloon along with a brief testimonial on why they love Cornwall.

Submitted testimonials may be used in a number of publicity and advertising projects for the city and participants will have a chance to win some great I ‘heart’ Cornwall swag,” added Malyon.

EASTER WEEK

How to level up your Easter egg hunt

Easter presents an ideal opportunity to spend quality time with your family. Here are a few fun ways to enjoy the holiday weekend together.

1. COOK BUNNY PANCAKES Start the day with a plate of pancakes shaped like bunnies or Easter eggs, and decorate them with your choice of fresh fruit, chocolate chips and sprinkles. Other holiday brunch menu options include scrambled eggs and hot cross buns.

2. DECORATE AN EASTER TREE Whether you choose to adorn a budding tree in your yard or arrange foraged branches in a vase, this is a great excuse to get crafting.

Salt dough ornaments, tissue paper flowers and painted plastic eggs can be made by your kids and then hung from your tree.

3. PLAY EASTER GAMES After you wrap up the egg hunt, keep the fun going by playing pin the tail on the bunny or having an egg-and-spoon relay race. If it’s a nice day, head outside for an “Easter egg” fight (with colourful water balloons) and a bunny hop sack race.

4. PLANT A FLOWER GARDEN To celebrate the start of spring, add some colour to your yard with flowers from a lo-

Do you want to surprise your kids for Easter this year? Here are a few ways to put a creative spin on the traditional chocolate egg hunt.

• Draw a treasure map of your home with Xs to mark the spot of hidden Easter treats.

• Hide plastic eggs filled with stickers, mini animal figurines, bouncy balls and other small toys.

• Fill plastic eggs with silly instructions (hop like a bunny, chirp like a chick, etc.) that your kids must do to earn a candy.

• Put tiny glow sticks inside plastic eggs and have your Easter egg hunt in the evening.

• Send your kids on a scavenger hunt to find one of each type of hidden egg (a green one, a striped one, a blue one, etc.).

• Leave written clues around the house that eventually lead to a stash of chocolates.

• Divide up pieces of a puzzle or Lego creation among the plastic eggs so it can be assembled once the hunt is over.

• Fill plastic eggs with slips of paper that list a reward the finder gets (skip chores, stay up late, have a pizza night, etc.).

If it’s a nice day, consider having your Easter egg hunt in the backyard.

cal farmers market or garden centre. Alternatively, plant a few arrangements in flower boxes that you can transfer outside when the weather gets warmer.

5. MAKE A HOLIDAY GIFT BASKET Decorate a wicker basket and fill it with an assortment of homemade baked goods or spring-themed gifts from local shops (soaps, jams, candles, etc.). Leave the basket on an elderly neighbour or relative’s front porch with a note wishing them a happy Easter.

Easter traditions from around the world In Canada, decorating eggs and searching for chocolates on Easter are time-honoured traditions. Here’s a look at how this holiday is celebrated in other countries around the world.

AUSTRALIA: Rather than a bunny, Australians have embraced the bilby as their Easter mascot in an effort to raise awareness about this endangered species. Chocolates of the long-eared marsupial are sold around the holiday, with proceeds given to conservation projects.

ITALY: On Easter Sunday, an ornate cart filled with fireworks is paraded through the streets of Florence to the Duomo Cathedral, where the archbishop lights the fuse during mass. This tradition, known as Scoppio del Carro, dates back more than 350 years.

FINLAND: Dressed up as witches in colour-

ful clothes and headscar ves, children go door to door on Easter weekend wishing their neighbours a healthy year. In exchange for a willow twig decorated with feathers, the little witches are given a chocolate or other treat.

FRANCE: On Easter Monday, spectators gather to watch do­zens of cooks make a giant 15,000-egg omelette in the main square of Bessières, a small village in southwest France. This tradition can be traced back to the time of Napoleon Bonaparte.

GREECE: On the island of Corfu, Holy Saturday is marked by an old custom that involves throw­ing large clay pots off balconies in the centre of town. Visitors come from all over Greece to watch the event — it’s a smash!

A year after opening, the youth wellness hub is here to stay PROVIDED BY THE EASTERN CHAMPLAIN YOUTH WELLNESS HUB CORNWALL, Ontario – Eastern Champlain Youth Wellness Hub opened its doors to youth aged 12-25 in Cornwall and Rockland one year ago. Despite being handicapped by pandemic restrictions, the hub in Cornwall has been firmly established, representing a whole new way of providing urban and rural youth across Cornwall, Stormont, Dundas, Glengarry and Akwesasne with the help they need.

Operating as a collaborative service between Cornwall Community Hospital, Hawkesbury General Hospital, Valoris for Children and Adults of Prescott-Russell and 27 more youth-friendly partners, the hub provides young people with direct access to medical care, counselling, peer support, and help with all kinds of life situations.

“What could be better than having all these services under one roof?” asks one of the hub’s young clients [name withheld for privacy reasons]. Whether youth need a prescription, want help finding a job, or want to talk about mental health, drug use or anything else, Cornwall Youth Hub can help.

The support is free to all youth aged 12 to 25, and there are no wait lists for support.

“I see benefits to the health system,” adds Hub Supervisor Michel Laviolette.

“The hub can often provide same-day or next-day support, preventing youth from sitting on waiting lists while their needs grow

Unions and advocacy groups call for inquiry into long-term care nseebruch@seawaynews.media

ONTARIO – A coalition of unions and advocacy groups are calling for an inquiry into Ontario’s long-term care sector, and the treatment of long-term care residents during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“COVID-19 has shone a harsh light on Ontario health care’s systemic ageism in the treatment of the elderly. Four bed ward rooms, understaffing, lack of PPE, failure to hospitalize residents. But the policy choices that got us here are decades-old and must stop,” says Jane Meadus with ACE. The Ontario Health Coalition (OHC), the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions (OCHU) the hospital division of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) and the Advocacy Centre for the Elderly (ACE) state that the 4,000 deaths of residents in long-term care facilities in Ontario is just one reason why they are calling for a public inquiry.

Locally, of the 69 reported COVID-19 deaths in the Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) region as of Thursday, March 25, 60 were residents of long-term care facilities.

There have been 88 facility outbreaks of

COVID-19 through the course of the pandemic, with the majority of those occurring in long-term care facilities as well. As of March 25, there are eight active COVID-19 outbreaks in the EOHU region.

Another issue that the coalition wants addressed in the public inquiry is the matter of capacity in long-term care facilities and the local hospital.

According to data provided by the coalition, while an average of 191 long-term care beds become available each month in the region, the wait time for a bed can be as long as 1,836 days, which is five years.

“The culture of hospital diversion for longterm care residents carried through the first wave and second wave. The older the resident, the lower the rate of hospitalization,” says the OHC’s Natalie Mehra.

The group also cites capacity issues at the Cornwall Community Hospital (CCH), which they state was over capacity by 112 per cent in October of 2020.

The coalition has submitted their request for a public inquiry to the Ontario Human Rights Commission which will determine whether or not they will take up the case.

Stay home to stop the spread of COVID-19.

Cornwall is going down to a two-bag garbage limit in April, and it is a good thing for taxpayers and a good thing for the environment.

It was April 2019 when the City of Cornwall first introduced a six-bag garbage limit, dropping it down to four this past October.

The reason why the City of Cornwall chose to enact a garbage bag limit in the first place came down saving taxpayer dollars.

The City of Cornwall landfill is running out of space. In 2018 it was estimated that there was about 12 years of space left in the Cornwall landfill.

Closing a landfill, let along opening a new one, costs money, a lot of money. It is estimated that the cost of closing the Cornwall landfill and maintaining the site afterward will cost the City of Cornwall $36 million.

It is that $36 million price tag that makes sustainability an even more pressing issue in Cornwall than it may be in our neighbouring municipalities.

Sustainability and waste management has probably been the file that has seen the most attention from City Council and administration over the past few years.

Not just through bag limits, but the City seems to be trying everything they think will work to divert garbage away from the landfill.

In fact, the desire to divert as much

garbage from the landfill was one of the reasons Cornwall City Council chose to award the waste management contract to e360 solutions in 2019, changing Cornwall’s garbage collection contractor for the first time in 28 years.

This year, the City also opened their FreeStore at the landfill, which has garnered regional attention. The FreeStore allows members of the public to collect items that have been sent to the dump, but are still useful, like old chairs and desks.

Keeping as much waste out of the landfill as possible will save money, but saving money always requires some sacrifice. That being said, the City has done quite a lot to make the sacrifice that Cornwall residents are being asked to make in the form of the garbage bag limit, as painless as possible.

The City sells bag tags for those who find themselves over the garbage bag limit. Bag tags are sold in sheets of 10 for $15 apiece.

The City also accepts petitions for exemptions from those who claim that medical issues cause them to produce more waste than the bag limit can accommodate. Those who seek a medical exemption can receive an application form by emailing wm@cornwall.ca or by calling 613-937-1777.

“The privacy and dignity of our residents is most important,” said Dave Kuhn, Waste Management Supervisor.

“We will provide bag tags to those who

have medical conditions that lead to extra waste.”

Just this week, the City of Cornwall added another exemption. The City now exempts diapers and other incontinence products from the garbage bag limit. Residents do not even have to apply for this exemption, they just need to put all of these exempt products in a clear plastic bag and they will not count towards the bag limit.

All of these exemptions, all of this effort on the part of the City to save us taxpayers some money, the least that we can do in response is to do our part and be diligent in our efforts to do what we can and divert waste from the landfill.

I don’t have kids of my own, so I don’t know how easy or sanitary cloth diapers are, but if you do have little ones that are in diapers at home, and are comfortable with using cloth diapers, maybe give them a shot and see if you can help us all get a few more years out of our landfill.

There is no limit on recycling bags. Put everything you can into a blue bag,

instead of a black one.

Earlier this year the City also updated the types of items that can be recycled.

Items such as grocery bags (except black), bread bags, milk bags, freezer bags, produce bags, cereal box liners, dry cleaner bags, cling wrap, newspaper bags (with newspaper removed), and apple or carrot bags can all be recycled.

We have one planet, regardless if the local landfill has 12 years of life left, five years, or 50, we should do all that we can to leave as small of an ecological footprint as possible.

Even if climate change, or environmental conservation isn’t your game, then as someone who cares about their tax dollars, live sustainably. It really matters and every little bit really does make a difference.

In Stormont Riding it was hard to find somebody who hadn’t voted in the hotly-contested March 31, 1958 federal election that saw John Diefenbaker’s Progressive Conservatives run roughshod over Lester Pearson’s Liberals.

A record – it still stands – 79.4% of eligible Canadians voted in the election.

The turnout in Stormont was even better with 82% casting ballots. In a couple of rural polls, the turnout was 100%. It is said records are made to be broken but it is hard to fathom the 1958 turnout being eclipsed, not in today’s apathetic climate.

Grant Campbell, a 35-year-old lawyer, upset Liberal incumbent Albert Lavigne who had replaced Lionel Chevrier.

Campbell was the first Progressive Conservative candidate to win the riding since Aultsville merchant Frank Shaver in 1930. Campbell won with a healthy 2,130 majority.

His political career would be short-lived.

In 1962 he lost a nail-biter to Liberal challenger Lucien Lamoureux who would become Speaker of the House in 1966. In 1968 Lamoureux turned in his Liberal membership card and was re-elected as an Independent.

Campbell died in 2008 at age 85.

Lamoureux passed away in 1998. He was 77.

The Moose Creek Recreation Association had a great idea to provide an indoor rink for the community on the cheap.

It almost turned into a tragedy.

The planned demolition of the old Mille Roches Arena by Ontario Hydro was scrapped when the folks in Moose Creek offered to take it down at their expense, if they could keep the material and use it to rebuild the rink in the village.

Everything was moving along on April 2, 1958 when a crew of 15 men working on the roof felt the structure start to shake.

Then it collapsed. The workers plunged 43 feet to a concrete floor covered with debris.

Miraculously, no lives were lost. Five of the men were taken to hospital with nonlife threatening injuries. The others were treated at the scene.

ALSO THIS MONTH IN 1958 – Longservice Howard Smith Paper Mill employees were honoured at a dinner. Receiving 35-year pins were Lindsay Day, David Prieur, William Greffe, Albert True, Fred McGillivray, Hubert Crowder, Everette Tilton, Lloyd Hill, Fred Legault and Leo Durocher. Donald McTavish was presented with a 45-year pin. • A sod-turning ceremony launched construction of St. John’s Presbyterian church hall. • Grand Ole Opry stars performing at the Water Street Arena included Decca Records recording star Roy Acuff. • Cornwall Kinsmen Club announced a plan to build 10 wading pools in city parks. • CKSF Radio purchased property on the Stuart Clark farm northeast of Eamer’s Corners for construction of two 200-foot transmitter towers. The station was increasing its power to 1,000 watts. •The John T. Walsh launched ferry service between Cornwall Island and New York State mainland. The service would continue during construction of the northern span of the new international bridge. • The grass fire season – a sure sign of spring - started with Cornwall Fire Department called to put out

EASTER: THE GREAT LOVE STORY God created us out of love to have a personal relationship with Him, now and forever. Our relationship has been broken by sin. We have turned away from God in what we have done and what we

have failed to do. It has separated us from Him. Still, God loved us so much, that He sent His only Son, Jesus, to mend that relationship. Jesus lived among us, suffered and died on the cross for our

10 - Wednesday, March 31, 2021

In the midst of this ongoing pandemic, what is the good news that Easter morning brings us? What sign of hope can we look to in order to rise above the suffering and misery we experience? The powerful victory of Christ over death and evil is that Good News. His resurrection from the dead opens the door to the eternal life for all who believe in him. In Jesus Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we are bound to one another in a love that heals and forgives and in a life that has no end.

It is no wonder that Christians throughout history have been able to be pillars of hope despite the hardships of life. As lifegiving communities, they supported one another. They laid down their lives for the sake of their brothers and sisters in Christ even if they were strangers.

Despite our own difficulties, let us acknowledge and celebrate the source of our joy and our hope. Let us proclaim with zeal and courage, that a life in communion with God - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - truly makes a difference and is worth living no matter what trials come our way. Remain faithful to God, follow Christ your Lord and walk empowered by the Holy Spirit.

May we sing the refrain of Psalm 104 from the Easter Vigil as we pray for a new world, free of evil and Covid: “Lord, send forth your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.”

Happy Easter and blessings upon you and your loved ones. +Marcel Damphousse Archbishop of Ottawa-Cornwall

Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord or Palm Sunday is the commemoration of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem that takes place about a week before his Resurrection (Easter).

Jesus entered Jerusalem on a DONKEY, which according to the Eastern tradition is an animal of peace. This reminds us that Jesus is the Prince of Peace, not a war-waging king.

Christ’s actions at his Last Supper introduce: the Eucharist, the priesthood, and the commandment to love one another.

During a solemn procession, The Blessed Sacrament is carried to a place of repose where the faithful may continue to pray in adoration.

Why do we wave palms?

According to the Gospels, when Jesus rode into Jerusalem, crowds greeted him by waving palms and covering his path with small branches of trees.

What is Palm Sunday?

Holy Week begins with Palm Sunday (also called Passion Sunday) and is the Sunday before Easter. Palms are distributed as a reminder of Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem.

What is the Easter Triduum Triduum is the Latin word for three days. The Easter Triduum is the highlight of the Christian calendar. It begins the evening of Holy Thursday and goes to the evening of Easter Sunday. Though chronologically three days, they are liturgically one day unfolding for us the unity of Jesus’ Paschal Mystery. The liturgical services that take place during the Triduum are: Mass of the Lord’s Supper (Holy Thursday) The Lord’s Passion (Good Friday) Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord (Easter Vigil/Easter Sunday) What is Holy Thursday?

Holy Thursday marks the beginning of the Easter Triduum. It is at this special celebration that we remember and celebrate Jesus’ gift of the Eucharist and the priesthood. Through the washing of the feet, we are also reminded of our responsibility to serve one another.

Easter

On this, the last day of the Paschal Triduum, the Church and, indeed, the whole world is filled with the radiance of the resurrection.

PALM SUNDAY What is Holy Week?

The final week of preparation before Easter Sunday is called Holy Week. These days recount Jesus’ final days.

BACK IN

All things are made new because of Christ’s death and resurrection. At Mass, we remind ourselves of the great gift given to us by professing our faith and being sprinkled with holy water as a symbol of our baptism.

EASTER SEASON

G O O D F R I D A Y

H O L Y S A T U R D A Y

The Paschal mystery has two aspects: by his death, Christ liberates us from sin; by his Resurrection, he opens for us the way to a new life.

“In the mystery of Christ’s death on the cross, we contemplate that undying divine love which embraces all mankind and summons us in turn to love one another in the power of the Spirit.”

We observe the PASCHAL FAST on Good Friday to prepare us to celebrate the Lord’s Resurrection. The paschal fast continues until the Easter Vigil, if possible. We may do so by prayer, fasting and by abstinence from meat.

On this day, we meditate on the mystery of Christ’s death and we venerate the cross. Behold the wood of the cross, on which hung the salvation of the world.

Come let us adore.

On Holy Saturday, the Church waits at the Lord’s tomb in prayer and fasting, meditating on his Passion and death and on his descent into Hell, and awaiting his Resurrection.

Easter Proclamation (The Service of Light) A great fire is blessed.

The Paschal Candle is lit from this sacred fire with the words: “May the light of Christ, rising in glory, dispel the darkness of our hearts and minds.

We celebrate Christ’s death and Resurrection. After water in the font is belssed, catechumens are initiated into the Church through baptism. The faithful also renew their baptismal promises at this time.

LOOKING FOR A CHURCH THIS EASTER?

What is Good Friday?

Good Friday is the day we commemorate the day that Jesus was put to death on the cross. At 3 pm, in Catholic churches everywhere, there is a special service that includes reading the Passion story and praying for the world in a special way.

In the evening, most parishes will pray the Stations of the Cross, which visually reminds us of Jesus’ condemnation, suffering and death.

Jesus’ mother Mary is believed to have often retraced the sorrowful way her Son made on Good Friday.

What is Holy Saturday?

On Holy Saturday we observe the period where Jesus’ body lay in the tomb.

At sundown we celebrate the Easter Vigil, which begins the season of Easter. Although this tends to be a very long Mass, it is a beautiful one that includes candlelight, readings from both the Old and New Testaments, the official welcoming of RCIA candidates to the Church family through baptism and confirmation as well as beautiful music.

May our hearts be grateful in remembrance of the Paschal Mystery, be filled with Jesus’ gracious presence, and renewed in the promise of eternal life!

Whether you’re a visitor, a newcomer or someone returning to church at this holy time of year you are always welcome. Our churches are only allowed a maximum capacity of 30%.

HOLY WEEK MEANS HOPE AND RENEWAL

The Archdiocese of Ottawa-Cornwall is preparing to observe Holy Week, which again this year is being done as the world grapples with a global pandemic.

Archbishop Marcel Damphousse acknowledged that this Easter and Lenten season would again be different, but that there were still ways to celebrate and observe these experiences.

“This year, Lent will be different than our usual experience. I encourage each and everyone of us to rely on our traditional practices of prayer, fasting and almsgiving with renewed vigour this Lent,” reads the Archbishop’s 2021 Lenten message. “You may consider offering the fruits of these practices in ways that support those struggling in the pandemic, especially those who are most vulnerable due to age, health, lack or resources or other reasons. No matter our particular circumstance, we can pray with and for those in need and in our fasting and charity, perhaps we can find ways to use the fruits of those practices to lend a material hand to those who need it.”

Msgr. Kevin Maloney of the St. Francis de Sales Parish explained that as the world emerges from the pandemic, Holy Week’s Easter message of hope and renewal is more relevant than ever.

“People need hope that light is here, and Jesus is that Light of the World,” he said. “The Easter message is all about hope and looking forward to the future.”

Holy Week will begin on Thursday evening as churches in the diocese observe the Last Supper. Churches Y E N O L A M will be open for several hours in the IN V MONSIGNOR KE evening for quiet prayer.

St. Francis de Sales, as well as the other parishes in our area, will be holding an afternoon mass on Good Friday at 3 p.m. On Saturday, we observe the Time of Waiting. At sundown we celebrate the Easter Vigil. On Sunday we celebrate the great feast of Easter.

Due to pandemic restrictions, churches will be limited to 30 per cent of their total capacity as well as requiring social distancing and mask wearing where needed.

The ceremonies for St. Frances de Sales Parish can also be viewed on Facebook via Facebook Live for those who cannot attend in person.

Msgr. Kevin reminds readers that everyone should check with their own parish prior to attending any events this Easter season, as each parish may have a slightly different schedule. Also some parishes are requiring reservations, while others are on a first come basis.

sins. Then…Jesus ROSE from the dead so that we might enter eternal life with Him. If we want this relationship, we need to make the choice to turn away from our sins, surrender and follow Him.

T H U R S D A Y

At the evening Mass of the Lord’s Supper, we enter into the saving action of God through Word and sacrament.

The Gospel (John 13;1-5) focuses on Jesus washing the feet of his disciples – a sign of loving humility and discipleship and a model of Christian service, which culminates in Jesus laying down his life for us through his death on the cross.

said Lisa MacLeod, Minister of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries. “It is important that we take time to celebrate their efforts. This has been a challenging year for our communities and our province – but I am so proud of our volunteers who continue to strengthen our local communities and demonstrate the very best of the Ontario spirit.”

Ontario Volunteer Service Awards have taken on a special meaning over the past year, with volunteers becoming crucial to supporting agencies and services during the course of the pandemic.

The awards recognize individuals for their continuous years of service with a particular non-profit organization.

“The incredible efforts of these individuals and organizations improve the lives of everyone in Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry,” said Jim McDonell, MPP for Stormont, Dundas, and South Glengarry. “On behalf of the residents of Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry, thank you.”

With the release of the 2021 Ontario Budget, Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy reaffirmed our commitment to fight COVID-19, stating it will “finish the job we started one year ago” of protecting people, because “you can’t have a healthy economy without healthy people.” Ontario’s Action Plan: Protecting People’s Health and Our Economy will grow the economy, while improving services and keeping taxes low. I have no doubt we will achieve these goals, while nearly cutting in half our deficit by 2023-24.

We will continue to work on the top priorities of Ontarians, including more long-term care. A number of local

projects are under way, at Woodland Villa, Maxville Manor, Dundas Manor, Heartwood, and South Bridge Cornwall.

We are also supporting families and businesses. An average family with three children, including one with special needs, will start to receive $2,600 more per year to address pandemic-related costs. We have started a second round of the Ontario Small Business Support Grant. This will provide $10,000 to $20,000 for about 120,000 small businesses, fueling the backbone of Ontario’s recovery.

Individuals will get more support starting a new career by using the new $260 million Ontario Jobs Training Tax Credit, allowing them to claim 50 percent of eligible expenses, up to a maximum of $2,000.

As always, I want to remind people to follow our health care guidelines, and to stay safe and save lives.

JOKE OF THE WEEK

There is a new trend in our office; everyone is putting names on their food. I saw it today, while I was eating a sandwich named Kevin.

From the Optimist Club of Cornwall: Due to the recent increase of cases in the Region, and the ease of spreadability of the new variants, the board of directors has decided to take a “better safe than sorry” approach and put a pause on programs involving contact between people. As such, the Ball Hockey is confirmed canceled. Whether the softball league will go on or not will be decided at a later time. Those how had already registered will see a refund over the next few days.

South Stormont Council passes 1.85 per cent budget increase NICK SEEBRUCH

nseebruch@seawaynews.media

SOUTH STORMONT, Ontario – The Township of South Stormont Council approved their 2021 municipal budget at their meeting on Wednesday, March 24.

Included in the budget is a residential tax increase of 1.85 per cent. For a home assessed at $100,000 this will mean a increase of $3.65.

The Township states that in order to achieve a rate increase of 1.85 per cent they had to access funds kept in reserve, increase the municipal debt by 25 per cent, and rely on grants from higher levels of government.

The 2021 budget funds a range of capital projects including the following: Myers Road Reconstruction Savings Street Drainage Improvements St. Andrews West Sidewalk and Pedestrian Crossover at St. Andrew’s Catholic School Valade Road Bridge Rehabilitation Ice Resurfacer Play Structure Replacements Basketball Court at Ingleside Community Park Pumper Tanker for Station 2 (Ingleside) Items removed from the capital budget include $50,000 for a new vehicle for the Fire Chief, and reducing the amount of money being

set aside for the demolition of Raisin Region Heritage Center from $350,000 to $325,000 Of the money taken from the Raisin Region Heritage Centre’s demolition budget, $15,000 will be used for a new furnace in Newington, and $10,000 was used to lower the 2021 tax rate increase.

There was some debate on using the $10,000 to lower the tax rate. By adding the $10,000 to the tax rate, which would lower the tax rate by just 0.015 per cent.

“I think we’re being very responsible and frugal. I haven’t seen this kind of discussion yet.

I’ve been a Councillor for six years. I think we are doing a good job, even though we don’t agree on every little bit,” said Deputy Mayor David Smith.

Councillor Jennifer MacIsaac disagreed about putting the $10,000 towards the tax base, but said that she would support the will of Council.

“I think we’ve had a good debate, and I think I will be comfortable with the final decision,” she

said.

Mayor Bryan McGillis praised staff and Council for a smooth budget process this year.

“I want to thank our staff, this was probably the easiest for me of all the years I’ve served on Council,” he said. “We do have to have an increase of some sort and this is being very very fiscally responsible.”

“We’re ahead of a lot of municipalities by far,” Mayor McGillis added.

Memorable encounters with wildlife Nick Wolochatiuk Dances with Words

again. Thanks for asking, just in case you intend to ask.”

My next wildlife encounter was during a bicycle trip to Vermont. After enjoying a meal by the campfire, anticipating some overnight rain, I covered my bike with a large sheet of plastic. I crawled into the tent for a much-needed sleep.

A rustling wakened me. I gazed at the sheet of plastic. It was moving, and squealing!

Obviously not a bear. Armed with a flashlight, I carefully lifted up the sheet. Two eyes peered out at me. It was not a raccoon’s black and brown face, but a black and white one. I slowly lowered the sheet and carefully backed away to my tent to watch. Eventually, the skunk emerged and shuffled off.

I returned to investigate, to see what damage had been done to the contents of the bike’s panniers. I carefully lifted up the sheet.

Again, another pair of eyes peered out at me, another black and white face stared at me. I slowly lowered the sheet and returned to my tent, just to sleep.

Bean explains that his brand offers a variety of supplements to meet a range of different goals including: better body sports nutrition, immune system support, healthy heart, general health, skin care, and natural anti-inflammatory.

AHEALTHYYOU has grown significantly in the past four months according to Bean, and has added a private workout space where clients can receive the support they need in a

non-judgmental environment.

“The completion of the private gym was the largest step,” Bean said. “Moving forward we will be going from 5,000 squ s to 10,000 squ s in the next two months time. Branding Ahealthyyou is a key focus for us, finally we will be making sure that all Covid protocols are put into place to provide a safe atmosphere and experience for the client.”

During my next morning’s examination of what was under the plastic sheet, there were no faces peering at me. Because the panniers only contained a few tools, rain gear, maps and spare clothing, no harm had been done.

Throughout it all, I remained calm and unafraid, for I knew that Vermont had no rattlesnakes, grizzly bears, tigers or sharks.

AHEALTHYYOU for all ages NICK SEEBRUCH

nseebruch@seawaynews.media

CORNWALL, Ontario – Dante Bean is passionate about health and fitness and he believes that his new brand of vitamins offered by his start-up AHEALTHYYOU can help anyone at any age.

After many years participating in a variety of competitive sports, Bean decided to become a personal trainer four years ago. It was Bean’s passion for wellness, an active

lifestyle and healthy living that prompted him to start AHEALTHYYOU. “The natural progression was for me to start a brand AHEALTHYYOU which represents my mantra. Both supplementation and training others to be their best, became my passion and therefore my ultimate goal,” Bean said.

It was Gino making an appeal at the other end of the line: “I have to be out of town for about a week. Could you babysit Celia until I get back?”

Celia was less than a year old, so I thought I could handle that. She was no tiny toddler, as she already weighed in at about 20 pounds and was well beyond her first baby steps. She was agile, busy, busy, busy, and to top it off, nocturnal. Celia was a precocious raccoon, an orphan rescued by Gino.

Daytime was no problem. A large jar of nuts, bolts, washers and string, seeded with a few doggy treats kept her occupied and

satisfied. I was able to take her for bicycle rides because she instinctively learned to stand on my back and grasp my head with her paws. There was no problem until she’d lean forward, covering my eyes.

Celia being nocturnal was the problem.

While we buried our heads under the pillows to discourage her from trying to pry our eyelids open, she’d roamed about our apartment looking for something, anything, to explore or get into.

We were awakened by a flushing sound, then a splash, followed by a scream. A soaking wet raccoon was trying to scramble out of the toilet. This was my post-incident analysis: she had clambered onto the toilet seat, made her way up to the water-cabinet and had almost reached the storage cabinet above it - but lost her grip. On her free-fall descent, she must have tried to use the flush handle as a foot hold. Her weight was sufficient to do a flush.

When Gino eventually returned from his business trip, I said, “No problem – but not
