Prior to the event, there was an opening ceremony. To start, Tae ys Benedict, a youth from Akwesasne lead the assembled crowd in a prayer.

Two women, Stephanie Nadeau and Suzanna Neville got up to tell their stories of dealing with physical and sexual violence.

“We’ve always thought to keep things quiet,” said Neville. “But by keeping these things quiet, we don’t give ourselves a chance to heal.”

Nadeau explained that nights like these are important in affirming a commitment to making the streets feel safe.

“I come here year after year and sometimes this is the only night that I feel safe walking the streets,” she said.

Wasps Turned Loose Against Emerald Ash Borer

SOUTH NATION, Ontario - South Nation Conservation (SNC) is helping do battle against the destructive Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) by basically fighting fire with fire by unleashing one insect against another.

ONTARIO - Want to see more wildlife on your land? Since 2007, Forests Ontario has been helping landowners to attract more “nature” to their land with the 50 Million Tree Program. Over the life of this program, more than 22 million trees have been planted on private land, and most landowners have cited the attraction of wildlife as their prime reason for signing up with the program. Landowners with a minimum of 2.5 acres (one hectare) of plantable land may be eligible for this generous tree planting incentive program.

Ontario to crack down on distracted drivers with tough new penalties

ONTARIO, Canada- For the past 16 years, Ontario’s roads have been ranked either first or second safest in North America, but there is still room for improvement. Minister of Transportation Steven Del Duca and Minister of Tourism, Culture and Sport Eleanor McMahon, announced Sept. 20 tough new road-safety measures set to take place this fall if passed.

Ontario plans to introduce the new legislation to help protect pedestrians and cyclists as well as reduce the number of people killed or injured due to impaired, distracted or dangerous drivers. The penalties for breaking the laws range from fines to license suspension and possible imprisonment.

Why? United Way Centraide SD&G Announced at the kick-off breakfast on September 15th, United Way has changed direction from a monetary goal to changing lives in our community. The funding is necessary and the means to get us to our goal, but we want to explain the why… why does United Way do what we do. Our mission is To Improve lives and build our community by working together and we cannot achieve that goal without the support of you and everyone living in our local community.

The support provided to United Way is invested into vital programs which improves lives for thousands of our residents from children to the elderly right here at home. It’s important to mention that all funds raised in Cornwall & SDG stay in Cornwall & SDG. United Way supported programs ensure that children have a safe place to go after school, that a teenager receives guidance through a mentor, and that a senior receives a warm meal and crucial daily check-in.

This is our WHY… making their lives better – making our community better.

United Way is Changing Lives. A young lady (we’ll call her Jane) attending an area high school participated in the Talk About Mental Illness Program– this program is supported by United Way and offered by Canadian Mental Health Association. The TAMI Program increases awareness about mental illness and the stigma that surrounds it. After completing the TAMI program, Jane noticed that something was going on with her father. She recognized the signs that he was in distress, that the situation was very serious and he could possibly harm himself.

Because of this program, she recognized the signs and she knew who to speak to and where to go for help. Thanks to the TAMI program, this story has a positive ending. Jane is our WHY… at least two lives were changed: Jane’s life and

Nolan Quinn with Gerry, one of the inspirational speakers from our Kickoff Breakfast her father’s life. This is our WHY. With your continued support through monetary donations, payroll deductions, supporting signature & third party events, we can grow stronger together as a community changing lives.

Become a United Way Centraide HERO today!

A lifetime of art and memories Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

SOUTH STORMONT, Ontario - South Stormont residents Alan and Audrey Bain have an art show on display at the Marianne van Silfhout Gallery at the St. Lawrence College Brockville campus.

The husband and wife team have been making art together since 1961 and will be displaying their work from then until now at this show titled “Together Over the Years: A Retrospective.

The show started running on Sept. 22 and will continue until Oct. 27 with an open house from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the gallery on Sept. 30.

Alan, studied geology at McGill University and worked as an exploration geologist and eventually a public school educator. Alan was a principal at Nationview, Morrisburg, Newington and Martintown.

Audrey, was an artist all of her life with her

early work being in oil painting before moving to acrylic. She attended the Nova Scotia Academy of Art and graduated from St. Lawrence College with a Diploma in Fine Arts.

She also served as Gallery Director at the Cornwall Regional Art Gallery for 10 years.

“We would go and take photographs together of landscapes and then critique them,” said Alan. “Then I decided I’d start painting them too.

I wanted to do something different than Audrey, so I worked in watercolour.”

In his life as a geologist, Alan worked a lot in Boreal forests and painted them extensively as an artist. This also was a part of his decision to paint with watercolours.

“The explorers who mapped out those areas Alan and Audrey Bain have been making art together for more than forty years (Nick used watercolours and that was a part of my Seebruch/ TC Media). interest in them,” he said.

It was not until 1975 that Alan and Audrey retrospective.

“We had no idea how much work it would be.” started painting together and while they have “It is pretty exciting, this is the first time Both Alan and Audrey are elected members done other art shows, this is their first big we’ve tried anything on this scale,” said Alan. of the Society of Canadian Artists.

Juicy weekend at Apples & Art Alycia Douglass alycia.douglass@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - This weekend, 26 locations from Morrisburg to Alexandria played host to the celebrated Apples & Art Studio Tour.

Now in its 26th year, the tour has since grown to include a multitude of different art forms, from oil on canvas to costume and textile.

In addition to the art portion of the event, the

tour also revels in the history of the McIntosh Apple, which originated in Eastern Ontario.

This year, the ladies at OBO Studios had more to celebrate than their love of art. Having recently announced that they will be moving to their new location at 204 Second Street East in the coming months, owners Tracy-Lynn Chisholm and Emily MacLeod took the opportunity to share their excitement with visitors.

“These are people we see once a year at this event,” said MacLeod. “So, it’s nice to catch up when they come in for Apples & Art. The event mostly attracts art lovers from around the area.”

With a moving sale chock-full of lovely artwork, MacLeod says that while they have enjoyed the years of art and friendship at 44 Pitt, it was time for a change.

“I think people are kind of surprised because

this is such a great space,” said MacLeod. “It was a big decision, and there were a lot of different considerations we took into account.”

Hoping to be fully moved in by the new year, the new space will allow for better visibility, and above all, more space.

“It’s going to be great to have a dedicated space for showing,” said MacLeod. “It’s a great big chunk the chew, but we’re very excited.”

Major investment in Glengarry Cairn

Handout from Parks Canada

SOUTH GLENGARRY, Ontario - The Parks Canada Agency is responsible for protecting and presenting nationally significant examples of Canada’s natural and cultural heritage.

Parks Canada protects and presents these treasures because they tell stories of who we are, including the history, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples.

Parks Canada is pleased to announce that we are investing $693,000, through the federal infrastructure investment program, in Glengarry Cairn National Historic Site to stabilize the cairn in its current condition to preserve the cultural heritage of the island. Work on the cairn is expected to begin later this year. This work is part of the $3 billion dollars being invested over 5 years to support infrastructure work in Parks Canada places across the country.

Parks Canada is pleased to be collaborating with the Mohawks of Akwesasne on this federal infrastructure project and looks forward to working the Township of South Glengarry on the future interpretation elements for the Cairn. Working together with more than 300 Indigenous communities across Canada, Parks Canada and Indigenous Peoples are partners in conserving, restoring, and presenting Canada’s natural and cultural heritage.

Handout from SD&G County Library

UNITED COUNTIES OF SD&G, Ontario Those three words are the updated mission statement for the SD&G County Library and will help to guide the organization over the coming years.

Over the summer months, Library staff asked the public to vote on statements that would better reflect the Library’s purpose. A shortlist of six statements was provided, along with the option to provide your own, and the results from this poll were provided to the Library Board at their September 7th meeting.

Almost 500 responses were gathered from the public, and it was a close contest between

four of the six statements. After a discussion by the Board, it was decided that this statement best reflected the purpose and objectives of the Library today, as well as moving forward.

“This updated mission statement hits the key objectives of the Library, is more modern, and more memorable.” stated Karen Franklin, Director of Library Services. “It also provides

possibilities for growth in the future, leaving room for patrons and staff to decide exactly how the Library fosters connections, creativity and exploration.”

Library publications and promotions will start to incorporate the updated mission statement as they are produced. As well, the task of updating the mission statement has led the Library Board to make plans to update the Library’s Strategic Plan in 2018.

For more information about the SD&G County Library or the mission statement update specifically, please contact Susan Wallwork, Communications & Marketing Librarian at 613-936-8777 ext. 226 or swallwork@sdglibrary.ca.

Battle of Britain remembered Alycia Douglass alycia.douglass@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - The Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) payed respect to those lost in the Battle of Britain this Sunday, Sept. 24.

Often described as the first major military campaign fought entirely by air forces, the 1940 battle amassed over 40,000 fatalities in a sixmonth period. Members and dignitaries were present at the RCAF Association’s Wing 424 to honour the Royal Air Force (RAF) for their service in British airspace.

“If it was not for the RAF, and the commonwealth forces that fought on behalf of good, the war would have been lost to the Germans,” said Lt.-Col. Christopher Horner, guest speaker and Aerospace Control Operations at the Nav

Centre.

Discussing the impact of aerospace control on military strategy, Horner said that the average interceptive mission percentage went from 25 percent to 70 and over once RAF observers were introduced.

Honouring the feat of fellowship and bravery, Horner noted that it was ‘their finest hour.’

Addressing member of the RCAF, Horner stated that it was their duty to carry the torch “Those individuals are the guardians of your sovereignty. It will continue to be their finest hour for the rest of their careers as they continue to defend and protect this great nation,” said Horner. “That is what won the Battle of Britain, and they are what will keep Canada safe in the future.”

25 years for Fountaingate Handout from Fountaingate Christian Assembly Church AKWESASNE - Fountaingate Christian Assembly Church was founded on Sept. 6, 1992.

The first service was held at the Best Western Parkway Inn where the church held services for 19 years following that date, moving into larger rooms as the congregation progressed. Today services are held at the Church Building and location at 949 Mohawk Drive in Cornwall. This celebration night was a success, with a chance to reflect on the many memories made at

Fountaingate, and speak of how the church follows its Mission Statement to “Gently Offer Healing, Health and Hope to a Hurting World.”

Fountaingate loves to love on people and it was evident by the attendance to the event. Guest speaker and Elder of Fellowship of Christian Assemblies, our church affiliate, Pastor Glenn Forsberg gave a beautiful message and presented Pastor Brad and Sharon Montsion with a plaque commemorating the 25 years. A beautiful slide show was shown to the congregation of the past 25 years. A great time of fellowship followed the service with some delicious food and a

beautiful cake. Pastor Roy Stevenson of Harvest Christian Fellowship was also in attendance to thank Pastor Brad and family for all their hard work in the community and give a special word

of encouragement, and show his support from the Cornwall and Area Evangelical Ministers. The night was a success and we look forward to another 25 years.

OPINION

Hype on Hyperloop Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

Canada was recently announced as one of 10 finalists for a potential hyperloop project.

A hyperloop is a new high speed rail system that would see cargo and passenger cylinders move quickly across great distances thanks to magnetic levitation, at least that’s the broad strokes of the concept.

American company Hyperloop One opened a global competition in 2016 inviting organizations from around the world to submit their proposals for a hyperloop in their country. Canada’s hyperloop submission was submitted by the Canadian branch of AECOM, an American engineering company.

Their proposal would see the train trip from

Montreal to Toronto reduced from five hours to under 40 minutes.

The problem I have with the proposed project is that it completely by-passes Belleville, Kingston and Cornwall in favour of a detour to Ottawa. Now while it is entirely understandable that Ottawa is on the route, the stretch of the Hwy 401 corridor between Montreal and Belleville should be as well.

The municipalities along that stretch of real estate should organize together and make sure that they get in on this project. The Mayors of Cornwall, Kingston and Belleville should work to get an assurance from Hyperloop One that their cities would eventually be added to the hyperloop system and to that end these cities should be added to the projects feasibility study which is the next step.

There’s more than one way to keep warm Nick Wolochatiuk ~ Dances With Words nutthilltoo@gmail.com

In my previous column, I was lamenting about the trials of packing up, moving on and culling down. As I gather my thoughts for this week’s column, the sun is beating down, there’s not a breeze to be found, the temperature is 31 Celsius, humidex 41. The perspiration dripping onto my laptop’s keyboard confirms those readings.

Am I longing for a job in an ice cream factory?

No. Am I reminiscing about my brief stay on a Canadian Coast Guard icebreaker? No. How about the blast of arctic air that hit me as I stepped out of

the plane at Tuktoyaktuk one February? No. Right now, I’m looking back on the last four decades I heated my homes using a wood stove with a glass door. There’s a primitive satisfaction that comes with being able to by-pass Ontario Hydro’s outrageous billings.

The Ice Storm of ’98 was the high point of my heating with wood experiences. In the woodshed adjacent to our‘Nut Hill’home was a 24’X 36’woodshed, stocked with enough cut, split, stacked and dried maple, oak, ash and elm to last until some winter far into the next century. Our 21-days without electricity were a memorable adventure.

All that wood came from the many acres of mature woodlot that sheltered our home. Only the

dead, dying or diseased trees were felled. The serpentine maze of trails in the forest allowed my tractor to haul the wood to the woodshed. Those trails were also used for X-country skiing. The labours involved in felling, dragging, splitting and stacking the wood meant I didn’t need to visit any gym.

All that came to an end when my 31-year marriage came to an end in 2001. I reluctantly bid adieu to the forest, the wood stove, but not to the Williamstown community. What instantly sold me on ‘TLC’, my new home , was the wood stove with a glass door sitting in the corner of the living room.

I once again had a wood stove, but there was no firewood on my one acre lot. Then the community aspect of Williamstown kicked in. The

Werts, a local family that was blessed with a fine woodlot, approached me. “So you’ve got a new home with a woodstove, but no firewood. We have a woodlot that needs culling. Help yourself.”

I was all set for the next 15 years. I still had enough exercise to keep me fit, and my wood stove that was fuelled with sweat equity heat kept me warm during cold winter nights. The pleasures of gazing at dancing flames and glowing embers are difficult to match. Then, as you know from my previous column, I’ve remarried and moved into my new wife’s urban home. No wood stove – but I’ve got my love to keep me warm.

I suggest he, at least, travels to Kemptville, a small, progressive community, where he can experience the benefits of roundabouts. No doubt it took the residents there a while to adjust but isn’t this the very essence of strategic development - growing requires learning. Had the City of Cornwall’s council thought wisely they might possibly have chosen to construct a roundabout at the McConnell/Ninth junction, that now seems doomed to remain a clogged junction throughout the coming years. In the proposed reconstruction phase of Highway

138 I am sure we will see more roundabouts engaged as traffic flow monitors.

The biggest element of adjusting to change is the fear of the unknown. With regard to roundabout usage there is one simple lesson to be learned - traffic on the roundabout has right of passage.

If really apprehensive why not take a run out to Kemptville - not very far and an enjoyable drive and give it a try? You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

LETTERS

Dear Sir: It is a pity Claude McIntosh, rather than simply quoting a couple of facts from a Wilfred Laurier University study, did not, in his Good News, Bad News, September 20 comments, elaborate on the tangible benefits of roundabouts It’s a recognized fact that many prefer to stay with the status quo rather than adjusting to change. I know, I’ve already heard the argument many times,“What’s wrong with staying with traffic lights?” First and foremost traffic lights cause an

interruption in the flow of traffic. This causes endless lines of vehicles to sit with their engines running - neither good for the engines nor the environment. A roundabout, on the other hand, allows for a continuous flow of traffic. Many Canadians, travelling to Britain and other parts of Europe, have been introduced to this phenomenon and, after the first adjustment to something unfamiliar, have realized the benefits of such an uninterrupted traffic flow.

If Claude McIntosh hasn’t visited Europe might

OPINION

many seasons, died Sept. 10 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. The gathering was a true celebration of Gary Pearson’s life. The tears were wiped away by some great stories and toasts to Gary, just the way he wanted it.

HERE AND THERE Seems that when a milliondollar lawsuit is launched against an Ottawa institution - be it hospital, police, city, etc. - it involves the same ambulance chaser (litigation lawyer), usually working on “commission”. Note to reader: Public institutions and corporations are easier targets because of deep pockets and insurance, which means client and more importantly lawyer have a better chance of getting the money in a settlement. ... The soggy summer, at least for many Ontario municipalities, has created a shortfall in water billing revenues derived from water usage recorded by meters. Residents used less water this summer. Less water equals less revenue when meters are involved. It is the downside of water conservation. ... South Glengarry deputy mayor Frank Prevost expected to run for the top position in the 2018 municipal election if incumbent mayor Ian MacLeod retires.

THIS AND THAT What’s hard to figure out is why so many U.S. veterans worship at the Donald Trump altar. This is a guy who managed to weasel his way of the draft not once but four times with a questionable physical ailment. He’s the same guy who insulted former prisoners of war (PoWs) by mocking John McCain for being captured.

TRIVIA This bank branch was at McConnell Avenue and Montreal Road.

TRIVIA ANSWER Cornwall’s first Kentucky Fried Chicken franchise opened on April 1, 1965 at 131 Augustus St. The opening day special offered

a dinner pack for five cents with the purchase of every .99 cent dinner. During the promotion that ran from 4 p.m. to midnight, 4,000 dinners were served.

THIS WEEK IN 1965 Resident living north of Tollgate Road were demanding that the city undertake a project - estimated to cost $850,000 - to supply them with water. There were 300 homes in the region and 650 building lots ready for development if water was made available. ...

The strike by members of Local 91 of the Teamsters Union were into their fourth week of a strike at the St. Lawrence Rendering plant. ... The largest papermaking machine in North America - No. 7 - was expected to go into production by the end of October at Domtar Fine Papers in the city. The machine was part of an $11 million expansion. ...

City council approved the creation of two new positions: a planning director and administrative assistant to clerk-administrator Maurice Boyer.

Salary range for the planning director was $6,500 to $10,000. For the administrative assistant position, it was $6,000 to $8,000. ... Ron Ward was signed by the Toronto Maple Leafs and assigned to Tulsa Oilers. ... Cornwall Royals opened training camp with 40 players. Returning players included Jean Payette, Dave Woodward, Jake Lefebvre, Gerry Lemire and Larry Gabri. Goalie Harold Murphy was considering a contract offer from the Toronto Marlboros. Defenceman Pete Prevost, who had played the previous two seasons in the Montreal Metro League, was returning to play for his home town.

The Chevrier family, which has deep roots in Cornwall, was front and centre at city hall last week for the unveiling of “The Premiers of Ontario”, a book edited by Jean Chevrier, son of one of Cornwall’s most successful and influential politicians, the late Lionel Chevrier.

The well-written collection of biographies leads off with John Sandfield Macdonald, Ontario’s first premier who represented Cornwall in the legislature. Macdonald was born in St. Raphael West but lived in Cornwall at Ivy Hall on York Street after moving to Cornwall to establish a law practice. He is buried in old St. Andrew’s Cemetery.

Cornwall native Lionel Chevrier, whose father Joseph served as mayor, was just a couple of years into his law practice when he joined the Mackenzie King Liberal government in 1935 as a freshly-minted Member of Parliament for Stormont. King made him transport minister in 1945. He fought nine election campaigns and won all of them. He represented Stormont from 1935-1953 when he resigned to become the first president of the St. Lawrence Seaway Authority. At the urging of the federal Liberals, who needed a high profile Quebec pointman for the unilingual Lester Pearson, he returned to serve as MP for Laurier (Montreal) in 1957. Imagine, an Ontario-born politician serving as the federal government’s Quebec lieutenant. Chevrier was re-elected three times as Laurier MP before retiring to become High Commissioner to the United Kingdom. His legacy was recognized by Canada Post. In 1997 a postage stamp was issued in his honour.

Chevrier was the consummate politician who knew the art of grassroots politics. He spent as much time as he could in Stormont riding. On most Saturday mornings, in the pre-shopping centre era when Pitt Street was the hub of retail activity, he would walk Pitt Street from Fifth to Water and back, tipping his hat to the ladies, shaking hands and engaging in conversation with his constituents.

Grant Campbell, who served StormontDundas in the Diefenbaker government, told a great story about Chevrier. Campbell had prepared a speech to be delivered in the House calling out Chevrier for selling the St. Lawrence Seaway project as a godsend for Cornwall and area. He compared Chevrier’s seaway sales job a snake oil salesman’s pitch to desperate folks. When he got up in the House he caught a glimpse of Chevrier sitting in the front row of the gallery.

Chevrier, nodded with a smile. Campbell charged ahead with his rebuke of Chevrier.

Later, while walking to his office he spotted Chevrier headed his way. He braced for an unsavoury backlash from the old pro.

But Chevrier wearing a sly smiled, tapped the young MP on the shoulder and said, “Nice speech, Grant. Nice speech.”

That was it. A well-delivered backhanded compliment. ********* The tightly knit Cornwall Hubs Oldtimers family said goodbye to one of their own, Gary Pearson, at the Blue Anchor back earlier this month. The standing room only crowd was a who’s who of local bygone hockey rosters. Pearson, who skated with Moe Lemieux’s oldtimers Hubs for

Get your home fall- and winter-ready with 5 simple projects

I

f boots, a warm hat and a tuned-up snow blower are the only items on your winter preparation list, your home maintenance plan may need a makeover. These simple home maintenance projects can help lower your energy bills, prevent more costly repairs and/or increase the lifespan of your home.

1. Heating & Ventilation — Examine your fireplace and chimney system to ensure that no soot or creosote has collected. Any cracks or voids could potentially cause a fire. Before you turn the furnace or boiler on, replace the air filter and hire a professional to inspect the unit more thoroughly. These steps will improve the efficiency and life of your furnace and will ensure stable indoor air quality.

2. Seal Windows and Doors — If not properly sealed, windows and doors can be a major culprit for heat loss. To keep the warm air inside, inspect the weather-stripping around your home’s windows and doors for leaks, rot or decay. Repair or replace structural framing, and caulk inside and out, if necessary.

3. Insulate well — One of the easiest and most effective defenses against heat loss is proper insulation. Prevent cold drafts from entering

and the loss of heated air through basement headers, which, when left exposed, can make your furnace work harder. Look for a moistureresistant product offering high thermal performance, such as Roxul Comfortbatt insulation. This type of mineral wool insulation makes installation simple. All that’s needed is a serrated blade or bread knife. Cut the batt to fit the cavity and press into place. The insulation will help improve energy efficiency as soon as it’s in place and provide savings over the lifetime of your home. Comfortbatt can also be used to top or replace old attic insulation. Aim for an R-50 or a depth of 16 inches.

4. Backyard Care — Save your property from potential damage by trimming overgrown trees and shrubs to prevent ice-laden branches from thrashing against electrical wires and your home’s exterior. Drain/shut off any exterior faucets and sprinkler systems to prevent freezing. Ensure rain or snow drains away from the house to avoid foundation problems.

5. Roof and Gutters — Inspect your roof for shingles that are warped, damaged or even missing to prevent a future leak. Use roofing cement and a caulking gun to seal joints where

water could penetrate, such as around the chimney, skylights or vent pipes. Make sure that your gutters and downspouts are securely fastened. Downspouts should extend at least five feet away from the home to prevent flooding.

When it comes to preventative maintenance, a little time and effort can save thousands in energy costs and repair bills over the lifetime of your home.

C

losing a pool at the end of the swimming season can be bittersweet.

Homeowners may be sad to bid adieu to the lazy days of splashing and swimming, but ready to embrace the cooler weather and the beauty of autumn. Before the leaves begin to fall from the trees, pool owners must prepare to close, or winterize, their pools.

Gather your supplies.

Make a list of the supplies you need to close the pool. Having everything on hand will make the process far more efficient than trying to wing it. Closing a pool can be a large job, so it pays to have some extra hands available. Enlist some helpers who will be available to hand you materials or to assist with placing the cover on the pool — which can be challenging to do on your own.

Don’t wait until the last minute to purchase necessary chemicals.

The chemicals used throughout the season will also be needed in the winterization process.

3rd Annual

maintain a sanitation level of at least 4 ppm.

Once the pool cover is on, the amount of chlorine that escapes due to sunlight and evaporation will decrease. An algaecide may be used, if desired, as well. In very cold climates, a pool-water antifreeze may be necessary. Check with your pool supply retailer for more information.

Run the filter.

Run the filter at least 24 hours before disassembling the filter for the season. This will help circulate any chemicals added through the water.

Drain the pool’s water to the appropriate level.

Water should fall just below the skimmer opening. Many pools do not need to be completely drained for the winter.

Shut off the filter pump, heater and any other equipment.

Let all water drain out and allow equipment to dry before storing them away. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for lubrication and covering. Install freeze plugs if you choose to

use them.

Adjust electricity settings.

Turn off the circuit to outdoor outlets that feed the pool equipment, testing to make sure the power is off.

Put accessories away.

Remove any ladders, diving boards, slides, external drain lines, and other recreational materials from the pool, storing them in a garage or shed so they are not subjected to potentially harsh winter weather.

Inflate air pillows to roughly 80 percent full if you will be using them.

Gather your helpers to attach the pool cover or leaf catcher net. Secure it thoroughly with anchors, water bags, wire fasteners, or whatever method is applicable for the cover and pool type. Remember, a quality pool cover will last for several years and keep leaves, dust and other unwanted items out of the water.

Come early autumn, homeowners can begin closing their pools to keep them secure and clean until the next swimming season begins.

Therefore, be sure you have enough before pool supplies become difficult to find in area stores. These include sanitizer, algaecide and pH-balancing chemicals.

Clean the entire pool area.

Ensuring the pool water and the surface of the pool is clean can make reopening the pool easy. Vacuum the pool thoroughly, removing any debris and organic matter that can contribute to algae growth. Don’t forget to brush down the walls of the pool and clean the jets and area where the filter skimmer meets the pool. Pool walls have plenty of crevices where algae can hide and multiply.

Test the water.

Leading pool products manufacturer Hayward recommends adjusting the pH to between 7.2 and 7.8 to prevent stains, scaling and algae growth. Alkalinity should be 80 to 125 ppm for plaster/gunite pools and 125 to 150 ppm for other pool types. Test the level of available chlorine, and super-chlorinate the pool to

Such detectors are inexpensive safeguards that should be installed on every floor of the house.

Batteries should be replaced every six months, and the alarms themselves should be changed every five to 10 years.

• Inspect the chimney from outdoors as well.

Inspect the mortar around any bricks in the chimney and surrounding areas for cracks. If left unaddressed, these can cause dangerous fires. If there are serious cracks, a professional may need to make repairs or the chimney may need to be replaced. You also can have the chimney capped with a screen to keep animals

and debris from entering.

• Inspect the damper. A damper is a valve or plate that stops or regulates the flow of air inside a chimney. It should be checked prior to the first use of a stove or fireplace so homeowners can be certain it opens and closes smoothly.

• Clear out flammable items. Move flammable items away from the front of a fireplace or stove. Be sure curtains or other home furnishings are far enough away that they will not catch fire from any errant sparks or flames.

• Order wood now. Be sure there is plenty of wood for the season. Ask a wood supplier to estimate just how much will be needed, and double-check that the wood will arrive in time for the start of the season.

By preparing for fireplace and wood stove use now, homeowners can ensure their winters are comfortable and safe.

early everyone has experienced a sticking door that just will not close properly. This problem may become more noticeable when temperatures rise and humidity contributes to the swelling of wood doors and frames.

According to The Family Handyman, a home improvement resource, the standard remedy for alleviating a sticking door is to remove the door and pare down the edges that are rubbing so that the door will once again swing freely.

While this can solve the problem, it can be a hassle, as it requires refinishing the pareddown edge and rehanging the door. Try these shortcuts first before creating more work than might be necessary.

If you think that the only way to exercise and burn calories involves gym equipment, think again.

Yard work can be just as challenging as a thorough aerobics workout at a nearby fitness club. To reap the greatest benefits, gardeners should use as little motorized machinery as possible. Manual tools will get you moving and can burn a substantial amount of calories. Try to vary positions and alternate which

hands you use to reduce strain and get an even workout. Fitness experts say that gardening can improve strength, increase endurance and assist with flexibility. According to a report in the UK publication The Telegraph, clearing a pond or weeding can burn some 300 calories in an hour.

Forty-five minutes worth of gardening can burn as many calories as 30 minutes of aerobics.

ireplaces and wood-burning stoves not only can be beautiful focal points within a home, but they also provide an additional source of heat and can be used to keep rooms or entire homes comfortable without the need for additional and potentially costly heating sources.

Just like more modern home heating systems, stoves and fireplaces need to be maintained, and that maintenance includes readying them before winter when they are used more heavily. Ensuring a fireplace or stove is in good working order helps to guarantee efficiency of use and safety during the winter months.

Open-flame heating sources carry with them certain risks. The National Fire Protection Association states that, between 2009-2013, American fire departments responded to 56,000 home structure fires that involved heating equipment. The NFPA notes that the leading factor contributing to home-heating fires is a failure to keep things clean, principally from solid-fueled heating equipment. The following are a handful of ways to stay safe as you get ready for another cozy season around the fire.

• Start with the chimney. Begin by having your chimney thoroughly cleaned and inspected. Creosote can build up inside of the chimney. Creosote is highly flammable and becomes more difficult and expensive to clean the longer it builds up inside your flue lining. In addition, animals may have created nest inside of the chimney since the last time the fireplace was used. A professional chimney sweep should be hired in this situation. He or she will be able to effectively clean the chimney in a manner that is the least messy and disruptive to residents.

Buying A New Roof?

Consider this…

Falls on construction projects continue to be the main cause of workplace injuries in Ontario.

Roofing is dangerous work; even a small slip can have serious consequences. So it’s very important to ask about health and safety precautions and certifications before you hire a roofing contractor.

DiD you know?

• By law, workers must be trained in fall protection and must be protected at all times when working above 3 metres (10 feet).

• Employers must train workers in workplace safety hazards.

1. Plug leaks Leaky windows and doorways can cost homeowners money year-round, allowing cold air to escape on hot summer afternoons and letting cold air in on brisk winter nights. When such leaks aren’t fixed, homeowners are more liable to turn up their air conditioners or heaters, unnecessarily padding their energy bills along the way. Before winter arrives, check areas around windows and door frames for leaks, as well as any additional openings, such as chimneys, that may allow cold air in. Use caulk or weather strips to plug these leaks, and enjoy your warmer home and lower energy bills as winter weather gets colder and colder.

for use and you are not greeted by some unwanted guests upon lighting your first fire.

3. Clear the yard Autumn days, particularly late autumn days, can be gusty, and strong winds can cause branches to fall off trees. Branches big and small can cause damage to cars, siding and roofs, and smaller branches can get clogged in gutters, potentially causing gutters to back up and leading to leaky roofs that damage a home’s interior. Take a walk around your property at least once per week during the fall, clearing any fallen limbs and trimming branches that appear one strong gust away from falling off of trees.

Remove any branches that are hanging over your home and driveway so they don’t pose a threat to your house or vehicles.

4. Turn off outdoor water supplies When temperatures get especially low, pipes with water still in them can freeze and burst, potentially leading to significant water damage.

When you no longer need to water the lawn and when temperatures get too cold to wash your car in the driveway, be sure to shut off the water supply to outdoor spigots and sprinkler systems.

Once you do that, drain them so no water is sitting in the pipes when temperatures dip.

There are many ways to winterize a home, and homeowners should take every precaution necessary to ensure their homes are safe and warm as the cold weather season approaches.

• A bounce sheet in your back pocket will repel mosquitoes. Place them around your house to repel mice as well.

• Dust first, then vacuum. That way you can vacuum up all the fallen dust. On a sidenote, did you know that dust is made up of 80% human skin?

• Place pillows in the dryer with a couple of tennis balls to help get them back to their “fluff stage” and kill germs with the high heat.

You have consumer rights protected by law. Visit Ontario.ca/homerenos to find out more. Call Consumer Protection Ontario at 1-800-889-9768 if you have a complaint about a contractor not fulfilling a written contract.

For additional information from the Ministry of Labour visit Ontario.ca/ beforeyoubuyaroof. If you have general inquiries about workplace health and safety or want to report a workplace health and safety incident call 1-877-202-0008.

• When painting, wrap a rubber band around the can over the opening. Then you can dip in the brush and wipe the excess paint off onto the rubber band, rather than the edge of the can.

2. Inspect your chimney If your home has a chimney, chances are you have not used it since last winter.

home renovation proBlems are consistently among the top consumer complaints in ontario Take the following precautions before you sign a contract: • Get written estimates for the work. Generally, three estimates will provide enough information, but get as many as you need to feel comfortable making a final decision.

• Ensure the estimates contain everything you ask for. Assume anything not listed is not included in the price.

• Before signing the contract, ensure you fully understand what you are signing for and what is included.

• Ensure the contract covers all discussed terms. This should include a breakdown of all costs and applicable taxes. A “hand shake” promise may not be enforceable if it’s not included in a written contract.

• Avoid contractors who offer tax-free deals. This can be a sign that a business is avoiding important consumer and worker protection responsibilities. A taxfree deal without a receipt provides no legal recourse over the goods and services purchased and can result in you having to pay twice if the job is left unfinished or done poorly.

s winter approaches, homeowners know they must do certain things to ready their homes for the coming months. Wrapping up the grill and closing the pool are no-brainers, but homeowners also must prioritize winterizing their homes to ensure homes withstand the winter.

Winterizing tasks range from small to big, but each can protect a home and its inhabitants and some can even save homeowners a substantial amount of money. The following are four simple ways to winterize your home.

Before signing a contract ask the contractor aBout worker safety • Is the contractor registered with the Workplace Safety & Insurance Board?

(WSIB administers compensation and no-fault insurance.)

• Have the workers been trained to work safely?

• Will workers be wearing fall protection equipment?

If the answer to any of these questions is no, look for another contractor.

As quickly as autumn weather arrives it seems to move aside for the blustery, cold days of winter. Winter can catch a person off guard and the seasons are now less predictable than ever before.

It’s never too early to begin preparing your yard and outdoor living spaces for winter.

Homeowners may be sad to bid farewell to the furniture and accessories of the fair-weather season, but time is of the essence when prepping for impending ice and snow. * Clean patio furniture. Give cushions and structures a thorough cleaning and allow to dry completely. Cleaning items before storing them for the winter saves time and energy next year when it’s time once again to set up the yard for recreation. If anything is damaged beyond repair, discard it and look for replacements during end-of-season sales when savings can be had. * Move things indoors. The more items you can store in a safe and secure location the better. Load the garage, basement or storage shed with outdoor gear. Leaving items exposes them to the elements, and such exposure can cause rust, wear and damage. Flower pots and lawn ornaments also can blow around in winter wind or collapse under the weight of the snow, so collect these items and store them for the winter. Take out patio umbrellas and put them in the shed. If something is too large to move indoors, such as a barbecue or a pool filter, cover it with a durable tarp and secure it with rope. * Cover delicate trees. Depending on where you live, certain fruit trees, including fig trees, may need to be covered for the winter. Covering protects them from subfreezing temperatures and helps ensure they will rebound in the spring.

Tropical plants should be moved indoors where they can thrive in a heated home. Do not rip out chrysanthemum plants. Contrary to popular belief, these are not annuals. They will rebloom year after year if allowed to do so. * Remove water collectors. Bring in or cover anything that may accumulate water, such as bird baths or kids’ toys. Water expands when frozen, and that means water trapped in any ceramic, glass or even plastic vessel can expand and cause the container to crack.

Squeaky floor

For a temporary fix, sprinkle talcum powder over the noisy area and sweep it into the cracks. Be sure to remove any traces of powder if you’re ever going to refinish the floor.

How to soften brown sugar Once you open the brown sugar, toss a few marshmallows in to keep it soft.

Stained tub * Clean up leaves and debris. Piles of leaves not only can suffocate a lawn and cause discoloration, but also can be attractive homes for rodents and insects looking for a warm place to spend their winters. Keep your yard neat and clean to discourage wildlife from taking up residence near your home. * Cover vegetable and flower beds. Invest in some burlap to lay down over planting beds.

This helps to keep the ground from freezing over and minimize weeds for next season. * Care for outdoor ponds. If you have a pond on your property, remove any weeds around it and fish out any leaves from the water. Leaves will decay in the water and build up ammonia levels that can harm fish. If the pond is small, cover it for the winter. Also, start cutting back on feeding outdoor fish. These aquatic animals’ bodies begin to prepare for winter by slowing down metabolism. Continuing to feed them can harm the fish when the temperature drops. * Wrap up pool season. It’s wise to close the pool and cover it before leaves start to drop.

Otherwise you will have a hard time of keeping the water clean. * Plant spring bulbs now. Now is a good time to plan where you want to put spring bulbs.

Once you have mapped things out, get the bulbs in the ground. Bulbs are relatively inexpensive and will provide that first punch of color when winter finally skips town.

Combine equal amounts of cream of tartar and baking soda with enough lemon juice to make a paste. Rub the mixture into the stain with your fingers or a soft cloth. Let sit for a half hour, then rinse well with water.

How to clean your shower head

To get the built up residue off of your shower head, tie a baggy of vinegar around a shower head. Leave it there over night, and it will clean everything off with no work!

Peeling wallpaper

With a knife, smear wallpaper paste onto a piece of writing paper. Rub the paper against the underside of the peeling section. Press the wallpaper against the wall.

Slide the writing paper out and smooth away bubbles with a clean cloth.

• To kill the germs and viruses that have gathered on your nasty sponges, microwave on high for 2 minutes and let cool. This only works for non-metal sponges!

• Tossing a few pennies in your garden to make your hydrangeas blue.

• Use a few drops of water, cream of tartar, and a sponge to get your stainless steel appliances looking brand new again.

• Iron a little baby powder into the under arms of your white shirts. It will keep oil from seeping into the threads, thus keeping them white.

Prep the yard for winter weather

h me renovation Home improvement projects for your fall to-do list

Roof inspection Less precipitation tends to fall during the warmer months than during the late fall and winter. As a result, homeowners may not be aware of leaky roofs until autumn has come and gone. But waiting until winter to inspect the roof can prove disastrous, as weather conditions will not be conducive to inspection and increased precipitation may result in potentially costly damage. Leaky roofs can be easily identified by looking for water stains on interior ceilings. Once you see a stain, you can climb onto the roof to identify the location of the leak and fix it before winter rains and snowfall turn the problem into something much larger.

Inspect your ceilings for signs of leaking after a strong rainfall, and then address any leaks immediately.

Gutter cleaning While some homeowners prefer to delay

their gutter cleaning projects until late fall, those whose homes are surrounded by trees may need to schedule two such projects.

Gutters clogged with leaves and other debris can cause serious roof damage, and that damage can extend all the way inside a home.

In addition, clogged gutters make great nesting areas for insects or critters. Always stand on a ladder when cleaning gutters, wearing gloves to remove items by hand and dropping leaves and debris into a trash can below. Standing on the roof and leaning over gutters greatly increases your risk of injury. If the gutters are clear when you first examine them in early fall, you can wait until later in the season to give them a complete and thorough cleaning. Once you have finished clearing the gutters, you can use a hose to run water through them and the downspouts to confirm everything is functioning properly.

Window and doorway inspection Before temperatures start dropping once again, homeowners will want to inspect their windows and doorways for leaks. Over time, cracks can develop around windows and doorways, and while such cracks are rarely noticeable when the weather outside is warm, they can be quite obvious and very costly if they remain unsealed come the start of winter. Cold air can enter a home through cracks around windows and doorways, and many homeowners who don’t suspect leaks may respond by turning up the thermostats in their homes. That can prove quite expensive over a full winter. Choose a windy autumn day to place

and tear. Once you store patio furniture for the winter, inspect your entire patio to determine if it needs any refurbishing. While certain patio projects may be best left for spring, you can still clean any stained areas around the grill and look for cracks in the sidewalk that need to be addressed.

Cornwall native wins gold at Invictus Games Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

TORONTO, Ontario - Krista Seguin, 28, was born and raised in Cornwall and is competing in the Invictus Games in Toronto.

On Monday, Sept. 25, 2017 Krista won gold in powerlifting for Team Canada at the Invictus Games in the Women’s Heavyweight division.

The Invictus Games was started in 2014 by Prince Harry of the British Royal Family. Himself a military veteran, Prince Harry started the Invictus Games to give wounded or sick military veterans a chance to compete in sport on a world stage.

Krista is a Lieutenant in the Canadian Navy

and is currently posted to Esquimalt, BC. She attended La Citadelle high school in Cornwall, and the Royal Military College in Kingston.

Krista is also competing in Sitting Volleyball on Tuesday, Sept. 26.

Krista’s mother Carol is grateful that the Invictus Games gives athletes like her daughter the opportunity to compete.

“When her injury happened it wouldn’t have been possible for her to compete on this level,” she said. “Without these games she wouldn’t have that opportunity.”

The 2017 Invictus Games are taking place from Sept. 23 to Sept. 30 with athletes from 15 countries competing in 12 different events.

Krista Seguin, 28, was born and raised in Cornwall and is competing in the Invictus Games this year in Toronto (Submitted photo).

Voyagez, comporte une préparation méticuleuse incluant, prévoir suffisamment de médicaments pour votre séjour.

Soyez vigilant. Certains médicaments d’ordonnance, ou en vente libre, sont autorisés par Santé Canada, mais ne le sont pas nécessairement dans votre pays de destination.
