Hacking to the future Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - The Ontario Power Generation (OPG) Visitor Centre hosted Cornwall’s latest hackathon on Saturday, Nov. 25 Hack to the Future was organized by Code Heroes, the Social Development Council, and the City of Cornwall.

The event saw six different teams face off to solve civic problems in the City of Cornwall.

Judges included Cornwall City Councillor Bernadette Clement, Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Maureen Adams, Mayor Leslie O’Shaughnessy and the Trendy Techie, Sage Franch.

Franch was the keynote speaker at the hackathon.

“I see a lot of people who have big questions about the future of tech here in Cornwall,” said Franch. “I think Cornwall has a unique perspec-

tive. With technology always available innovation is now possible anywhere.”

At the event, she spoke to the gathered audience about the Five Key Pillars of Emerging Tech, namely, the cloud, artificial intelligence, block chains, quantum and mixed reality.

Some of the entrants in the hackathon on Saturday included ideas to solve problems around local transportation, shopping carts and tourism.

The first place winners Shivam Bhatt, Gabriel Valin and Ethan Kennedy created an app with the express purpose of tackling all of the challenges facing Cornwall. They called their idea Exousia which would be an app that invited youth to crowd source ideas to solve problems and rewarding good behaviour through a positive karma system as a way to combat trolls.

Bhatt, one of the spokesmen for the three man group defined youth as anyone with a young way of thinking.

The City of Cornwall is undertaking an Environmental Screening to amend the City of Cornwall’s Waste Disposal Site Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) to accept solid non-hazardous waste from a new jurisdiction located outside the current service area (see map). This screening is being completed under the Environmental Screening Process for Waste Management Projects under the Environmental Assessment Act O.Reg 101/07. The Environmental Screening process is used for routine projects (eg. to amend the service area). These types of screened projects have predictable and manageable environmental affects The City of Cornwall Waste Disposal Site is currently approved by the Ministry of Environmental and Climate Change (MOECC) to accept solid non-hazardous waste generated from the City of Cornwall, Municipal Hazardous and Special Waste (MHSW) generated from Cornwall and the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas, and Glengarry at the MHSW depot located at the landfill for transfer to recycling/processing sites.

The City is proposing to accept waste from the jurisdiction, of the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne (from within their Three Territories).

The proposed changes will not change the landfill’s approved rate of fill (amount of waste the landfill can receive per year), the types of waste that can be accepted, the size or capacity of the landfill or engineering controls to protect the environment and mitigate nuisance impacts. Physical changes to the landfill are not required. The proposed changes are administrative in nature and reflect a request from the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne as part of MCA’s Environmental Commitment including greenhouse gas and carbon footprint reduction.

Consultation Members of the public, agencies, Aboriginal communities, and other interested persons are encouraged to actively participate in the environmental screening study by visiting www.cornwall.ca where information on the process, a background document, project notices, and opportunities to comment on the project can be found. The Screening report, once prepared, will be made available for review and comment as well.

A light downtown CORNWALL, Ontario - Crowds gathered outside the Justice Building once again this year, to celebrate the start of the holiday season with the second annual community Christmas tree lighting.

“It’s really just a community event. The tree goes up, and we thought, why not have a little event, with YourTV here? Tonight, we’ve got music, hot chocolate and we have the Agape Centre and Salvation Army here to invite people to get into the giving spirit of the season.”

“This is the second year we are doing this. This year we’re back, and we’re hoping for bigger and better things,” said Kevin Lajoie, spokesperson for the City of Cornwall and organizer for the night’s event. “We’ve got a little bit of music, then we light

The only star of the night that wasn’t on top of the Christmas tree was Serenity Filella, age 9, who won the lucky opportunity to light this year’s 38 feet tall tree. Filella was joined by Mayor Leslie O’Shaughnessy for the special moment.

Families were treated to live musical performances from a number of acts including Kevin Rivette, Sparky, and the Cornwall Professional Firefighters Association, along with hot chocolate and treats, and most importantly, hang out with Santa himself.

The Christmas tree was donated by Strathmore Tree Orchard from South Stormont, and towed to its location in front of the Justice building by Metro towing, with decorations by Black & Mcdonald, the Cornwall Community Police Services, and the City of Cornwall.“It’s a nice focal point when you’re coming downtown.” said Lajoie.

It’s Going to be a Brilliant Affair

7423010

CORNWALL, Ontario - Cornwall’s Ghost Walk for Charity raises $15,000 for three local charities in its inaugural year. The event took place in the Cotton Mill District October 23rd to the 28th with a Gala on the Saturday night.

The Ghost Walk Committee chose three charities to benefit this year. They are Bereaved Families of Cornwall and Area, Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Cornwall & District and Hospice Cornwall. Each charity will receive $5,000.

Included in the fundraising total is $5,000 matching funds from Scotiabank Cornwall.

Throughout that week in October close to 2,000 people came through and braved the

spooky walk organizers put together in the spirit of Halloween. “We were overwhelmed with the community response,” said Ghost Walk For Charity Founder and Chairman Mike Turcotte. “To raise that kind of money in our first year is beyond what we expected. We’re already looking forward to scaring even more people next year.”

The Ghost Walk for Charity Committee also includes Dan Allaire, Steve Bernier, Nicole Easton, Jean Leger, Jeff Madden, Jenn Martin, David Murphy, Lee Theodore and Mike Turcotte Jr. For more information about the ghost walk and to keep tabs and what’s coming up in 2018 people can visit www.theghostwalk.ca and visit our Ghost Walk For Charity Facebook page.

Three decades of service Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

LANCASTER, Ontario - After three decades as a municipal clerk, Marilyn Lebrun is retiring at the end of this year.

A native of Lancaster, Marilyn began as an administrative assistant and eventually Clerk for the Village of Lancaster. She remained Clerk after the amalgamation of the Township of South Glengarry in 1998.

That same year offered the first real challenge to the new municipality, the Ice Storm of ‘98.

“The Ice Storm worked out really well,” said Marilyn. “We had to come together as a new community. I was responsible for the five fire departments to make sure they had everything they needed during the emergency.”

Over the course of her career, Marilyn said that she was always passionate about taking an

active role in municipal democracy.

“I like municipal elections,” she said. “I ran the elections from 1999 and I don’t know how many elections I ran. I always have to be neutral and I like speaking with the candidates and explaining the election. Some are intimidated because they don’t know what’s involved.”

Marilyn says that she is very proud that the municipality now has a Nurse Practitioner Clinic and remembers helping setup an office for the nurse at the Township Hall.

Marilyn’s last official day as clerk is Dec. 31 and she will be replaced by Kelli Campeau.

“I feel great,” she said. “I’m ready to retire and do some things I always wanted to like gardening, curling and the historic walking tour of the village.”

She had some advice for her successor, who she says has the full support of the Township CAO Bryan Brown.

“Communication is the toughest part of the job,” she said. “I think that Kelli will excel in that part of it. Some people you never hear from and some people you hear from all the time. It is important to listen to people and to listen to what they’re trying to say. I think people don’t realize the bureaucracy involved and you have to be patient with people.”

She said that she sees higher levels of government downloading more and more responsibilities to municipal employees, who will have to be prepared for those challenges in the future.”

Marilyn said she will miss the people she works with, and looks forward to taking up more projects, like the historic walking tour of South Lancaster, which she is passionate about.

“I’ve been fortunate for all of the people I’ve worked with over the years,” she said. “I’ve learned a lot.”

Tobacco bust in Bainsville Handout from the CRTF

For additional information: www.southglengarry.com • 613-347-1166 7178875

BAINSVILLE, Ontario - Two individuals charged for being in possession of a large quantity of unstamped tobacco.

On the evening of Nov. 20, officers with the Cornwall Regional Task Force (CRTF) were patrolling the South Glengarry area when they observed suspicious activities taking place along the shore line.

Police observed what appeared to be an exchange of bags from a boat to individuals ashore. As the boat departed the area, the bags

were observed being loaded into a Ford Econoline van. As the CRTF converged on the area, the two individuals attempted to flee on foot, however, were quickly apprehended.

Mario Arial-Marleau (aged 31) and Leo Cloutier (aged 38) both from Valleyfield, Quebec were arrested in the Bainsville area, for being in possession of 65 bags weighing approximately 1,153kgs of fine cut tobacco. In addition to the contraband, the van was seized. Arial-Marleau and Cloutier were subsequently charged with possession of unstamped tobacco under the

Excise Act. Both males are also facing charges under the Tobacco Tax Act. They were released to appear in court at the Alexandria Provincial Courthouse on Jan. 10, 2018.

If you have any information regarding criminal activity in your area, you can contact the CRTF at 1-613-937-2800 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

The CRTF is a joint forces partnership that includes the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Ontario Provincial Police and the Ontario Ministry of Finance.

Starting in 2008, Crush Lane was a part-time passion of Zaczyk. When the time came for her to dive into the business full-time, she found a great home at Echo Trends. The business is now growing, and she has hired on two employees.

“What is really important to Crush Lane is that our stuff is quality, it will last and is made to be passed down,” Zaczyk said.

Nats remain perfect on home ice CORNWALL, Ontario - The Nationals powered their way to a 7-5 victory over the North Shore Knights on Sunday night in Federal Hockey League action at the Civic Complex.

Captain Ahmed Mahfouz had a hat trick and added four assists as the first-place Nationals improved to 5-1-0-1. Cornwall is now a perfect 3-0 on home ice this season.

With the Nationals on a powerplay, Maxime Guyon found a wide-open Eric Witzel at side of the net for a tap-in goal 7:16 into the contest to open the scoring.

But, some sloppy play and a turnover at the blueline resulted in a North Shore marker with

2:08 to play in the first. Vito Scaringi eventually tipped a shot from the point past a helpless Brandon Billie, who was making his first start of the season for Cornwall.

Mahfouz then out-weighted North Shore goaltender Christian Pavlas and found a wide open Guyon, who made it 2-1 Cornwall only 59 seconds into the second period. The Knights levelled the score 68 seconds later however, as Josh Newberg tucked a backhander past Billie.

Justin Portillo gave the Nationals a 3-2 lead at 6:24 of the middle frame. With Cornwall on the powerplay, Mahfouz did all the work, found a wide open Portillo, who buried a wrist shot into

On Saturday, Witzel scored twice to lead Cornwall to a 3-2 victory. Guyon added his 5th of the season, while Sebastien Dube-Rochon stopped 29-of-31 shots to earn the win in goal.

With 5:33 to go in the second, and the Nationals on another powerplay, Mahfouz gave Cornwall a two-goal lead with a nifty backhand from a tough angle.

But, Radoslav Konecny beat a sprawling Billie with 34.9 seconds to play in the second.

Sylvester Bzdyl was the next recipient of a slick Mahfouz pass as he gave the Nationals a 5-3 lead three minutes into the third. North Shore fought right back however, with a perfectly placed wrist shot by Marvin Powell.

Mahfouz then threw the puck toward the net and got a lucky bounce off a North Shore defenceman’s leg to give the Nationals a 6-4 lead with 9:02 to play in the third. It was Cornwall’s fourth powerplay of the game.

Newberg brought North Shore back to within a goal with 6:59 to play.

But the captain completed the hat trick by finishing off a perfect tick-tac-toe play with

North Glengarry CAO stepping down Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

NORTH GLENGARRY, Ontario - After more than six years as Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) of the Township of North Glengarry, Daniel Gagnon has announced that he will be stepping down.

Gagnon has been offered and has accepted the job as CAO of Elliot Lake, ON. Gagnon had worked for the municipality of Elliot Lake prior to coming to North Glengarry in 2011. There he had held positions in Economic

Development, recreation and CAO. “I’ve had a great opportunity to work with a wonderful staff and council,” said Gagnon in an interview with Seaway News. “Its a lifestyle choice. I’m going back to my roots in Northern Ontario.”

North Glengarry Deputy Mayor Jamie MacDonald wished Gagnon the best going forward. ““Dan is returning home to his roots after a very successful tenure here,” he said in a statement. “He was a valued team member and instrumental in driving positive changes to

the community that will be in place for decades to come like the Maxville water project and the Community Improvement Plan. We are sad to see him go but understand his motivation and wish him well in his future endeavours.”

Gagnon’s tenure as CAO of North Glengarry will end on Dec. 31 and he will begin his new position in Elliot Lake on Jan. 2.

The Township of North Glengarry has yet to name a successor or interim replacement, stating that such details will be forthcoming in the near future.

OPINION

Black Friday Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

The Black Friday tradition is something that we Canadians have mimicked from our Southern neighbours. In the United States it signals the end of Thanksgiving and the beginning of the Christmas season.

Of course, Christmas is the most profitable time of the year for most retailers and Black Friday is a way to kick that off with a bang. In border towns like Cornwall, Black Friday makes a little bit of sense too. We are very close to the U.S. market and why not welcome some shoppers from south of the border with some competitive prices.

I went to Mark’s Work Warehouse this passed weekend to buy new pants and the cashier told me that on Black Friday, they had a line-up almost to the back of the store.

Black Friday clearly is a real boost to retailers and even those who still operate brickand-mortar stores get a benefit. In an age where anything can be bought from the comfort of your own home at a click of a button, it says something when people can be lured into a store. I don’t begrudge retailers anything for making a nice stack of cash on Black Friday, but I do think that we as consumers

need to show some measure of restraint and reflection.

Like I said, in the States, Black Friday is seen as the kickoff to the Christmas Season.

Whether you be American or Canadian, A frenzy of shopping should not be what sets the tone of Christmas. On the one hand, we are told in the media that Christmas is a time for giving and thinking of others, but then on the other hand we are enticed to go out and buy as much as we can.

Again, retailers trying to increase their bottom-line during the Christmas season is fine and shoppers wanting to save money on Black Friday deals is also fine, but as people, we should also do things to remember and support the less fortunate during Christmas.

Those of us who can afford to part-take in Black Friday are lucky and there are those in our community who aren’t so lucky.

Every day the Agapè Centre serves between 80 and 150 people in their soup kitchen and over 100 families in Cornwall use their food bank. Even in a small town like Cornwall there is still homelessness, but we don’t necessarily see it.

During a presentation on poverty to City Council by the Social Development Council this past Spring, Councillor Carilyne Hébert

said: “We have a poverty problem and we don’t like talking about it . . . We have a lot of invisible poverty in our city.” She went on to say that poverty can be a relative thing and isn’t always absolute. Someone might have a

home, but they can’t afford electricity or food.

So, in your rush this Christmas to hunt for the best deals on presents think about also finding some time for charity, it could help make sure that we all have a Merry Christmas.

Next museum curator

What’s the Rush?

Dear Editor: Here’s a comment from an irate tax payer. On November 23rd at approximately 4:00pm while having a coffee the fire alarm bells went off at the Cornwall Square. The whole mall was evacuated in a timely and orderly fashion while all the shops closed up. I deliberately timed the response time from the fire department. It was

The Cornwall Community Museum is a valued public institution and is funded mostly by the City of Cornwall taxpayers.

Our Cornwall Community Museum is our confidence of the community and will be the past and our future. best qualified person.

There are several qualified persons in this Yours truly, area who would be very interested in guaranBrian Lynch teeing that the past history of Cornwall & SD&G

at least seventeen to twenty minutes before a fire truck showed up. I was always taught that the first few minutes in responding to a fire were crucial.

Either the powers that be at the mall did not send in the 911 call immediately or more likely the fire crews were busy preparing supper or watching ‘The Young and the rest of us’ or some

other critical Soap Opera.

At any rate, if this had been an explosion with a real fire, the only thing that would have been saved would be the cement foundation and certainly not any people at the mall.

Perhaps what is needed is a first response team to assess a fire or whether it’s a false alarm.

A fire crew from Lancaster or Williamstown

could have been there quicker. I’ll be watching for a “response” or excuse for what took so long to arrive.

P.S. The same thing happened last summer with the same slow response time.

corner of Gloucester and Second streets, now an apartment complex. ... The magnificent Abraham house and well-groomed property on the southeast corner of Second and Augustus streets that was torn down for Panoramic Towers. ... Quintessential community street cops: The irascible Sgt. Davie MacCracken, a fixture at Pitt and Second streets, while the Montreal Road shopping district was patrolled

by Sgt. Donat Tessier, on foot. There was a story that one bitterly cold evening Tessier stopped in at a speakeasy (an east-end kitchen) to warm up. He dozed off in a comfortable chair, woke up and hour or two later but in a hurry to get back to the station before his shift finished forgot his gun belt on the coat rack.

THIS AND THAT: On the night of Feb. 9, 1934 the much segregated State of Alabama marched five black men, one after another, from death row to the electric chair. It was, and remains, as the Associated Press (AP) reported, “A mass execution unparalleled in modern times (in the U.S.).” All had been charged with the murder of a white man. Each denied any involvement in the crime. The jurors were white males. Some were believed to be members of the Klan. A state justice official said the men got what they deserved: A life for a life. Note to black activist and celebrated film-maker Spike Lee, this might be a movie in the making. ... When five black teens, one was 15, were (wrongfully) convicted of the 1989 brutal rape of a white woman in Central Park, Donald Trump took out fullpage ads in four New York City newspapers calling for their execution. Seven years later a serial rapist confessed to the crime and the men were released from prison. Today, he is President Trump and still believes they were guilty and should have been executed. And we call the

OPINION North Korean dictator a loon.

HERE AND THERE: Taxpayers spent about $750,000 installing rink-side seats at the Ed Lumley Arena. It might not rank as the greatest waste of tax dollars but considering how little they have been used over the years it deserves an honourable mention. .... In a Toronto Sun online poll 77.39% of the 4,500 clicks believe Conservative leader Patrick Brown will be the next premier of Ontario. Considering how unpopular Preem Kathy is just months from the June election and that Sun readers lean to the right, this isn’t exactly an overwhelming vote of confidence.

THIS AND THAT: A dollar doesn’t buy much these days but in 1954 it got you a one pound T-bone steak. And in 1962 you could buy five burgers for $1 at MacDonald’s, but at Cornwall’s most popular greasy spoon (aka Ma Lalonde’s) $1 got you 10 burgers cooked up by Ma herself or her daughter, Gert. ... No wonder gas guzzlers were so popular in the Sixties, gas sold for about 35 cents a gallon. And that was at full service stations.

SPORTS STUFF: It is called a summer sport but soccer has outlived the football season in Toronto, home of the 2017 Grey Cup champion Argos. Toronto FC is still playing and could have the season extended into December in an outdoor stadium. ... What is more Canadian than at least one post-season Canadian Football League game played in a snow storm. ... If the Matt Duchesne trade flops for Ottawa Senators, Colorado Avs general manager Joe Sakic is in the running for GM of the year. Shades of Sam Pollock picking pockets.

ONE LAST THING: In Texas they say to teach your daughter how to shoot, because a court restraining order is just a piece of paper.

Talk about a gag backfiring ... literally Claude McIntosh ~ Mac’s Musings It was November 1957 and a 22-year-old Cornwall man was in a downtown Detroit bar when he decided to pull a prank after a few too many, or put another way: being overserved.

He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a toy gun. While waving the cap gun, which resembled the real deal, in the air he announced that he was going to shoot up the joint.

As dozens of customers dived for the floor, the bartender, Thomas Vinettia, an army veteran, reached for the real McCoy, a loaded revolver that he kept under the bar. He took quick aim and pulled the trigger. The shot struck the jokester in the leg. As the wounded patron limped toward the front door, the barkeep fired two more shots that sailed over his head.

(Note to reader: good thing for the Cornwall guy the bartender was not an army marksman.)

The wise guy, who collapsed on the sidewalk just outside the bar, ended up in hospital with a broken leg and an interview with a representative of the Detroit police department. No charges were laid. Perhaps police figured being shot in the leg was sufficient punishment. Or, as one police officer, said, “He’s lucky the bartender was a bad shot.”

Also this week in 1957, the children’s department of Cornwall Public Library set a record for the number of books taken out in a single day.

The new mark, set on a Saturday, was 1,000. The previous record was 960. This was a time when kids spent more time reading than watching television or on electronic devices. ...

A professional can steal your vehicle in just 30 seconds and an unlocked door is an easy target. Protect your vehicle from theft by rolling up windows, locking the doors, put valuables and purchases in the trunk, park in a well-lit area and keep your keys with you.

CORNWALL, Ontario - Returning for its 5th year in a row, the United Way’s Holiday Wine and Gourmet tasting event kicked off another successful start to the holiday season.

Organized by the United Way as the flagship event for the holiday season of giving, this year’s event brought on new sponsors and sold out to a crowd of 450 guests.

“A lot of organizing goes into tonight,” said Lori Greer, executive director for the United Way SDG. “We have a group of tremendous volunteers, who help with this event, along with some of our staff. We rely on our volunteers heavily.

They work for months to get this event off the

ground.”

This year’s organizing effort was spearheaded by Karen and Ray Brunet, local business owners and long time volunteers who are committed to the role the United Way plays in our community.

“We’re very excited to be a big part of this amazing event and support the United Way,” said Karen Brunet. “We’re raising much needed funds for the community, that will stay in the community.”

“We’re sold out, we have a crowd of 450 here.

We’re thrilled with the attendance. We also have great sponsors, and a few new ones on board this year,” said Greer. “We really strive to make this the kick off to the holiday season. We work

hard to make it enjoyable for everyone As much as the fundraising is an important part of it, we really make sure everyone has a great evening.”

The holiday season tends to mark the beginning of a broader United Way campaign to raise needed funds which help support direct programming for social services in Cornwall. Unlike previous years, this year’s campaign moves away from setting fiscal targets, and looks to approach fundraising from a new perspective.

“The campaign is going well, we can accept donations at any time, but most people know this is a United Way time of year,” said Greer.

“There is a lot going on this year, and as always, we are extremely thankful.”

Talking innovation Nick Seebruch

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - The Cornwall Innovation Centre (CIC) held its second InnoTalk at the Nav Centre on Tuesday, Nov. 21.

The guest speaker at the event was Ryan Androsoff, co-founder of the Canadian Digital Service (CDS) and former public servant specializing in the integration of digital technology in the public sector.

Androsoff was invited to the event to talk to local entrepreneurs about how they can use digital technology to influence the public sector. Androsoff gave the example of his own company, the CDS. “The CDS is focused on improving digital service for citizens,” he said. “The CDS partners

with other federal departments to help them bring in and launch new services. We serve as in house experts and policy hackers. We go in and work with a prototype and build a new and easy to use service.”

Androsoff explained how municipal governments, like the City of Cornwall, could encourage innovation in their own communities.

“Open data,” he said. “By governments moving more of their data online and making it machine readable creates opportunities to build industry and entrepreneurs can take advantage.”

He gave an example of how he created an app based on the City of Ottawa’s public data on their bus routes. The app informed the user the exact time when the next bus would arrive at their stop.

The CIC had more than 50 people show up to hear Androsoff speak on Tuesday night.

In addition to the talk by Androsoff, the CIC also introduced their Premier and Founding Sponsors including the Royal Bank of Canada, The Benson Group, McDonald Duncan LLP, The Community Futures Development Corporation and the Nav Centre.

The CIC’s Lead to Win entrepreneurs were also at the InnoTalk, which not only gave them the opportunity to be exposed to Ryan Androsoff, but also allowed them to network with the greater community in attendance.

Lead to Win members present included Fan Saves, EVO WEIGH, Daydream Development, Brazen Bytes Inc. and Orange Neurosceinces.

Orange Neurosciences are the creators of ReadON, an app to help those with learning

differences.

Dr. Vinay Signh, one of the co-founders of Orange Neurosciences said that the CIC has offered the best kinds of help to his business. androsoff “We’re loving it, the CIC really gave us a home,” he said.

Before they were a part of the Lead to Win program, Dr. Singh and his partner Ingrid Poupart ran Orange Neurosciences as an online business.

“The CIC has offered us free space, free internet and a great ecosystem and community,” Singh said.

Bringing Christmas Nick Seebruch

nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario - Erika Bourgon and her friends, Carolyn Lafleche, Allyson Ayotte and Torie Bourgon worked together to help bring Christmas to the less fortunate.

Over the summer, they held yard sales to raise some money and then used the move they raised, a total of $520 to buy gifts.

In total, they bough 25 gifts which they will be donating to the Blessed Sacrament Church in Cornwall and the church will be distributing them to less fortunate families so that their chil-

dren can have a Christmas.

“Not all kids can get what other kids have for Christmas,” said Erika. “We wanted to give someone else a chance to feel what we feel at Christmas.”

They explained that most of the gifts were gift cards to places like the theatre or for clothing stores so that kids can choose their own gifts based on what they want.

All four girls are students at La Citadelle high school and say that they school helped them promote their fundraiser. They say that this was a great experience for them and they want to do more in the future.

Deux individus accusés d’être en possession d’une importante quantité de tabac non estampillé Communiqué de presse de le GTRC BAINSVILLE, Ontario - Dans la soirée du 20 novembre, des enquêteurs du Groupe de travail régional de Cornwall (GTRC) qui patrouillaient dans la région de South Glengarry ont remarqué des activités suspectes se déroulant le long du rivage.

Ils ont aperçu ce qui semblait être un échange de sacs entre les occupants d’un bateau et des individus sur le rivage. Pendant que le bateau quittait le secteur, les enquêteurs ont observé les individus déposer les sacs dans une camionnette Ford Econoline. Les enquêteurs sont arrivés sur les lieux. Les deux individus ont alors tenté de prendre la fuite à pied et ont été rapidement arrêtés. Mario ArialMarleau (31 ans) et Léo Cloutier (38 ans), tous deux de Valleyfield, au Québec, ont été arrêtés

dans la région de Bainsville pour être en possession de 65 sacs, d’un poids total d’environ 1 153 kg, de tabac haché fin. Outre le tabac de contrebande, la camionnette a été saisie. Mario Arial-Marleau et Léo Cloutier ont ensuite été accusés de possession de tabac non estampillé en vertu de la Loi sur l’accise. Les deux hommes font également face à des accusions en vertu de la Loi concernant l’impôt sur le tabac. Ils ont été libérés et comparaîtront devant la Cour provinciale d’Alexandria le 10 janvier 2018.

Si vous détenez des informations sur des activités criminelles dans votre région, vous pouvez communiquer avec le GTRC, au 1 613 937-2800, ou avec Échec au crime, au 1 800 222-8477.

SPEC3334304

Le lundi 20 novembre dernier, l’école Rose des Vents a organisé son dîner traditionnel avec les parents en l’honneur de la journée internationale de l’enfant. En effet, depuis quelques années, les parents sont invités à venir dîner avec leurs enfants dans le cadre de cette journée spéciale. En effet, partout dans le monde, cette journée est soulignée. C’est une journée parfaite pour aborder avec les élèves des discussions sur les droits des enfants, mais c’est aussi une journée parfaite pour gâter un peu notre raison d’être; les enfants!

Imaginez toutefois des parents de 485 élèves qui décident de venir dîner à l’école! Tout le monde y met la main à la pâte! Les concierges sortent et entrent des tables pour transformer notre gymnase et les salles de classe en “restaurant”. Des chaises sont ajoutées par ces derniers pour pouvoir accommoder les parents qui arrivent en “visite”. On pouvait observer M. Paradis, Mme Roy et M. Davidson se transformer en préposés au stationnement. Constable Daniel Cloutier, de la police communautaire de Cornwall, était l’agent en service pour assurer la circulation sécuritaire de nos parents et des autres membres de la population! Vous pouviez aussi observer des centaines de sourires lorsque papa ou maman ou les deux dépassaient le seuil de la salle de classe pour venir manger avec leur enfant!

Il n’est pas évident de prendre un temps pour venir manger en famille à l’école! On tient donc aussi à remercier nos centaines de familles qui rendent, à chaque année, notre événement un succès!

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men

By 2030, 1.7 million men will be living with prostate cancer. While this disease is very treatable if caught early, chances for survival drop to 26 percent in the first five years of diagnosis if left undetected until a late stage.

THiNKiNg Of SElliNg YOUr HOmE?

For hand washing, dish mops outlast sponges and they don’t get dingy and smelly as fast as dish rags. There are at least three species of dish mops: (1) sponge or sponge strips on a handle, (2) mini-string-mop types, and (3) scrubbers, the kind that holds detergent in the handle, which saves you money because you don’t have to add any more detergent.

Dish mops can be an essential piece of cleaning equipment and perfect for rinsing and scraping.

Attendees listened to advice and how to cope with grief over the holidays, and were invited to tap into the Bereaved Families wealth of resources designed for people facing these tough challenges. The Centennial Choir was also in attendance, performing for crowds shortly before the tree lighting.

“Some people were here for the first time this year, of course all are welcome,” said Roy. Following the tree lighting attendees were invited to place memories on the Christmas tree, which will later be digitized and kept by the Bereaved Families of Ontario.

“We have our candlelight service coming up at Knox St. Paul’s United Church on December 13th at 7pm,” said Roy, inviting all those unable to attend today’s event.

CORNWALL, Ontario - The holiday season can be an especially challenging time of year for anyone who has ever lost someone close to their heart. To support those people, the Bereaved Families of Ontario held their Memorial Tree lighting service at the Cornwall Square mall, continuing a 21 year old tradition, on Sunday afternoon.

“This is the memory tree lighting ceremony for bereaved families, our tree has been at the Cornwall Square for the last 21 years. It’s a symbolic gesture to memorialize those we’ve lost,” said Gisele Roy, from the Bereaved Families of Ontario’s local office.

“Some people return year after year to put their memory tag in the tree, and it’s a source of

CORNWALL, Ontario - There is always a long to-do list for the holiday season, and getting the flu shot should be close the top.

Barring any history of allergic reaction, getting the flu shot is a beneficial decision Harry Haramis of Medical Arts Pharmacy explained.

Regardless of being young or old, healthy or sick, getting the flu shot will help reduce the risk of flu in the recipient and the larger community.

Haramis explained that even if someone is

Let’s

young and healthy, they should still get the flu shot for the sake of others.

“It is really to protect your loved ones,” he said.

“You could spread the flue to people who are weaker who could die from it.”

The flu shot has been available since late October, and Haramis said that Medical Arts Pharmacy usually stocks the shot until the end of the season, sometimes as late as April.

Haramis recommends getting it as soon as possible because the shot does take two weeks to take full effect. He also reminds the public that

Every year, the flu shot is created to target what is believed to be the prevalent flu strain in circulation. Even if the shot is not the exact match to that strain, it will still offer some protection.

I was walking down the street when I was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabbylooking homeless man who asked me for a couple of dollars for dinner. I took out my wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked,”If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead of dinner?”

“No, I had to stop drinking years ago,” the homeless man replied.

“Will you use it to go fishing instead of buying food?” I asked.

“No, I don’t waste time fishing,” the homeless man said..”I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive.”

“Will you spend this on hunting equipment?”

I asked.

“Are you NUTS!” replied the homeless man.

“I haven’t gone hunting in 20 years!”

“Well,” I said, “I’m not going to give you money. Instead, I’m going to take you home for a shower and a terrific dinner cooked by my wife.”

The homeless man was astounded. “Won’t your wife be furious with you for doing that?

I replied, “Don’t worry about that. It’s important for her to see what a man looks like after he has given up drinking, fishing, and hunting.”
