Kinsmen Music Festival celebrates 65 years Shawna O’Neill shawna.oneill@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – The longest running Cornwall Kinsmen Club initiative, the Kinsmen Music Festival, celebrated 65 years in the community as students performedfrom Tuesday, April 2 to Thursday, April 4, and again on Sunday, April 7.

Jane McLaren, long-time Festival Coordinator, said that between 10 and 20 schools typically attend each year at Aultsville Theatre. Students can perform in a range of classifications, in voice, instrumental, dance, piano, choir and oral speaking.

McLaren said that on April 7, the Concert of the Stars would award many students with trophies and bursaries for their achievements.

Some students were selected to compete in provincial competitions, and others had the chance to win a Kinsmen Pizza Party, special for their school.

McLaren admires that the festival is

non-competitive and that adjudicators give live feedback, taking away the pressure of judgment but allowing students to receive constructive criticism and learn how to handle nerves associated with the stage and presentations.

“I will often say I credit the Kin Music Festival and (a teacher) for teaching me how to be a public speaker,” said McLaren, who remembers participating in various categories in the festival, as early as Grade 2. “A lot of what I do now in my professional career is a lot of public speaking, and I credit a lot of that to growing up and having these opportunities through things like this festival…it carries over to so many different things in life and is an amazing life skill.”

McLaren said that the Kinsmen Club donates to offset the cost of busses and adjudicators to invest in students’ futures.

“We have two new trophies this year,” added McLaren. “A trophy called the Performance Trophy, donated in memory of Greg Trizisky…

Students of North Dundas Choir at Kinsmen Music Festival on Thursday, April 4 (Shawna O’Neill/TC Media).

he was a real supporter of young people in the arts, and that trophy is for a young person who performs across two different specialties…we also have a new trophy that is recognizing

senior or advanced Conservatory Piano (Kinsmen Trophy for Intermediate / Advanced Conservatory Piano donated by the McMartins).”

Station 4 (St. Andrews West Fire Hall)

CORNWALL, Ontario – Hundreds of Holy Trinity Catholic Secondary School and St. Joseph’s Catholic Secondary School students walked out of their classrooms at 1:15 p.m. on Thursday, April 4, protesting proposed changes to education by the Ford government.

The two local schools are among 600 across the province that said they would participate in the peaceful, walk-out protest. The protest, bearing the hashtag #StudentsSayNo, spread after a post by Natalie Moore, a Grade 12 student at Listowel District Secondary School in Listowel, ON went viral on social media. Moore explained that she wanted to make a statement after receiving no reply from her local MPP concerning questions about education changes.

The Ford government announced significant changes to the provincial education system in March. Changes include class size requirements

for Grades 9 to 12 will be adjusted up to 28 from the current average of 22. Cellphones will be banned from classrooms and a new sex education curricula will be implemented. Although Education Minister Lisa Thompson said there will not be any job loses as a result of the change, Harvey Bischof, President of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation, believes 20 per cent or 5,500 teachers may lose their jobs in publicly funded systems.

“The previous government left us an outdated system that did not prepare our students for the realities of today,” said MPP Jim McDonell in a press release. “We are going to be investing in education and students in a way that is focused on student achievement and wellbeing.I have heard from employers in my riding that they are forced to go outside of our province for entry-level jobs. This is not right, and we are taking steps to address the lack of basic skills.”

“We are in Grade 12, so some people might think this won’t affect us, but it does. It’s going to (influence) future generations and what we stand for,” said Chloe Caitlin McNaughton, Holy Trinity student. “What I have always been told is, the smaller class size, the better the learning

because you get more one-on-one attention.

With a larger group, you might not have as much time with a teacher and that may impact certain students who need the extra help.”

Local mother, Meghan Carter, agreed with students and attended the protest to offer moral support. Carter emphasized that everyone learns differently, so forcing students to take online classes may not help them succeed or showcase their capabilities.

“It’s absolutely ridiculous. We have kids that are struggling, especially emotionally with a lot of anxiety in today’s society, and as a parent I have been fighting for more support in schools.

So, to hear that they are going to take something away is ridiculous…I just wanted to support them. I think that more parents should be here too. They’re our children,” said Carter.

“Our Government has been clear from the beginning that we are listening to parents and consulting with our education partners to modernize and improve Ontario’s education system from kindergarten to Grade 12,” said McDonell.

“We welcome conversation with any stakeholder who wants to work with us in good faith to ensure our plan always puts students first and remains fair to our educators.”

Volunteers make it possible at Agapè Centre CORNWALL, Ontario – Across Canada, April 7 to 13 marks National Volunteer Week. Many community members agree that our region is unique for its active volunteerism, like Pauline Brown, Agapè Centre Volunteer Coordinator.

“It’s surprising and wonderful how everyone comes together in Cornwall,”said Brown, who has worked with the Centre since 2017 and has overseen volunteers for a year. “Without volunteers, we wouldn’t be able to serve our community the way we do; we would never keep up…it opens my eyes. Our community is very lucky.”

Brown explained that the Agapè Centre runs on volunteerism, and there is currently 70 to 80 individuals actively donating their time. She sees

individuals of several career backgrounds, from business owners, to police officers and paramedics.

“I think it’s something in their heart,” said Brown. “There’s a few…that come to volunteer, and you’d never think (they’d be here). No one even knows they’re here. It’s something inside of them, they want to do to give back.”

Volunteers at the Centre typically spend their time assisting in the soup kitchen, food bank, thrift store or sorting donations. The soup kitchen can see up to 140 individuals daily, all served by volunteers. Brown believes that more young people would feel fulfilled with volunteering and hopes that more donate their time.

Eileen Charbonneau, an Agapè Centre volunteer of over two years, decided to donate her time after retiring and now prepares food in the soup

kitchen every Monday and Friday.

“If it’s a holiday, or we’re not open, or it’s the weekend, I miss it (here). I really do miss it. I miss the team I am working with, the people who come in to eat. They always have a smile on their face, they are always happy and they appreciate it,” said Charbonneau.

“There’s a big need (for volunteering) in the community,” she added. “For a lot of people, this might be their only meal for the day…sometimes, when it’s a Monday, they haven’t eaten all weekend.”

Charbonneau reflected on how volunteering can lead to different opportunities, whether they be personal or professional.

“They do it right from the heart. They’re amazing and very sincere with it all,” said Brown appreciatively.

I think that it is worth noting that the Cornwall Community Hospital (CCH) has made great strides over the past year that I believe are worth recognition.

Often on Facebook, I see complaints that the hospital’s wait times are too long, or other complaints about service, but I feel like this is missing the bigger picture. For one, in late 2018, I wrote a story comparing Emergency Room wait times at the three hospitals in Cornwall and SD&G, and the CCH was not noticeably better or worse than either the Winchester or Alexandria hospitals.

The CCH, and their fundraising arm, the Cornwall Community Hospital Foundation (CCHF), have done a lot to bring new services and better-quality healthcare to the citizens of Cornwall.

In 2018, the CCHF reached their goal of raising $1.2 million for the hospital’s new Centre for Addiction and Mental Health 10 months ahead of schedule.

Just last month in March, the CCHF successfully lobbied the City of Cornwall for $50,000 in funding to help start a program to bring new doctors to Cornwall and this was after months of coordinating and negotiating between the CCH, CCHF and Queen’s University.

Last week, the CCHF saw their annual Corus Radiothon bring in one of the largest returns in the fundraisers history of over $150,000. This significant sum will go towards purchasing a new mammography machine. The new machine will cost around $400,000. The CCH does currently have a mammography machine, but it is 10-years-old and is reaching the end of its service life.

It is through efforts like these that the CCHF is ensuring that Cornwall’s hospital has services that not only meet the needs of local residents, but that are also turning the CCH into a medical hub in the region. Often, residents may see the ORNGE helicopters flying into the hospital, but they are not always there to take patients to Ottawa, Amy Gillespie the Executive Director of the CCHF told Cornwall City Council in March that in fact, the helicopters are also often bringing patients to Cornwall because of the services and treatments they can receive here.

All of this is possible because of the strong support this community gives to the CCHF, like during their Radiothon, but it can’t stop there. Yes, the Radiothon was a big success, but the CCHF requires support all year round.

Supporting the CCHF should be an easy sell. At some point, we’re all going to need the services they offer there, and if not us, then a loved one. Let’s give a little bit out of pocket to make sure that we, our neighbours and the region have the best care possible.

Bag limit Dear Editor, My name is David Brisson and I have been a garbage man for the better part of the last twelve years. I’ve worked for different companies, as well as in different cities. I currently work as the garbage man in South Dundas, where I might add, has a two bag limit. The countryside does not look like a landfill due to this limit, as well I also see a considerable amount of recycling.

I have worked in Cornwall on the garbage trucks with the previous company and noticed that garbage amounts were astronomical in certain areas and recycling was difficult to find. Surprisingly the garbage was heavier in the lower income areas, which baffles me as I tend to wonder how people on ODSP or welfare can produce so much garbage. One area in particular, is commonly named “cat piss alley” due to the over population of stray cats in the area primarily between st. Felix and McConnell, and First st. To the river. It was probably the heaviest and dirtiest area I had to collect in. Yet you can go in areas like Riverdale or Sunrise Acres and for the most part, people have reasonable amounts of garbage well below this proposed limit.

I grew up near Finch and it has been a two bag limit since I was 5 years old, so well over three decades, and it seems to work. It works in South Dundas with a two bag limit. In Kemptville, where it is set up on the bag tag program at $1.75 a bag(2009 pricing when I worked there) it works as well and you don’t see garbage all over the rural roads and ditches. In Carleton Place you’re allowed two

bags. In Kingston you are allowed one can per household, Brockville as well if I’m not mistaken. Limits work and do promote recycling.

Aside from working in South Dundas I also work for the same company in Ottawa, where unfortunately, it is the only area within a 200 km radius that still allows a free for all at the curb. You could empty your entire house to the curb and it gets collected. Yet there is still a vast amount of recycling collected as well as green bin(compost material) collected. From my experiences and everything I have come across and seen. I believe Cornwall would serve well with the year round green bin collection including yard waste(branches, grass, leaves), which would drastically reduce the weight of garbage. I also believe the city would of benefited much more from instilling the bag tag program. I have seen on many occasions where an elderly person religiously puts out one grocery bag worth of garbage a week while the neighbour puts out thirty black garbage bags. Having a bag tag program in place is the best, most productive and most cost efficient way to promote and in a sense “ force” using other means for your garbage, including recycling and composting. Cornwall, like Ottawa, has been spoiled long enough when it comes to waste. Their has been no ownership or responsibility taken for the amount of trash that gets put out regularly. Well it’s time for a change, and despite this still being a limit that is too high, it is at least a start in the right direction.

OPINION

The cost to play Claude McIntosh Mac’s Musings

EDITORIAL@cornwallseawaynews.com

I’m not sure how financially challenged families afford to have one child playing minor hockey let alone two or three.

Perhaps they can’t and that is why the number of kids enrolled in minor hockey has plunged over the years.

When baby boomers were growing up, it cost about $10 to register for the Cornwall Minor Hockey Association house league program which had about 1,000 players. And all you needed were a $1.25 hockey stick that was expected to last the season, a 10 cent roll of black tape, a pair of hand-me-down skates, a pair of hockey stockings and shin pads. Some kids even had real hockey gloves, pants and shoulder pads.

Today it costs around $650 to register a child for house league. And that is just the tip of the financial iceberg.

Because not enough kids sign up, it is not possible to have an in-house schedule. So, the one or two division clubs play in a league that includes outlying communities whose programs are also strapped for players. That means travelling. And that takes a car, time and money, which puts some kids on the sidelines.

The end-of-season bill - registration, equipment, travel and tournaments - for one house league skater easily surpasses $2,000.

But that is chump change for what it costs parents with a kid on one of the elite teams where a second mortgage might be an option.

We’ve come a long way from the days of the frozen pond and kids using the Eaton’s catalogue for shin pads.

THIS WEEK IN 1966 - Cornwall Royals suffered a heart-breaking loss in a sold-out Halifax Forum when the Maritime champion

Canadiens scored with 48 seconds left in the third period to beat the Ontario squad 6-5 and take the Memorial Cup playdown series in seven games. Jean Payette had three goals for the Royals with Bob Deschamps and Pete Prevost adding one apiece. Cornwall goalie Harold Murphy made 41 saves. ... Domtar long-service club added 29 members. Lucide Lamesse received a 45-year pin while A. C. Pitts and B. R. Tilton were given 40-year pins. ... Cornwall Township asked the OMB to approve financing to provide the Long Sault Arena with an artificial ice plant. The township had taken over the arena as a Centennial project. ...

The parks and recreation committee recommended that a consulting engineer be hired to study the possibility of expanding seating capacity at the Water Street Arena to 4,800 from 1,800. ... Billy Carter of Cornwall had 16 goals and 45 assists while playing for AHL Buffalo Bisons.

AROUND AND ABOUT Few weeks back we wondered how Bonville got its name.

South Stormont historian Don McIntosh came up with the answer. The name has its roots in Ireland. Don says the Irishman who “conned” the Scottish residents into re-naming the hamlet (Glenco) after an Irish village was a fast-talking entrepreneur named Pete Gibbons. Legend has it Gibbons owed a lot of money to local farmers/investors. He was last seen making a dash via horse and buggy to catch a train in Apple Hill, never to be seen again. (Hey, does this have a familiar ring?)

At one time, the hamlet had two hotels and a post office. ... For the first ever, the field of Democratic presidential candidates will outnumber of horses in the Kentucky Derby starting gate. ... Cornwall Fire Department marked a milestone last week when its first female firefighter reported for duty.

HERE AND THERE Tell me it isn’t true, that some police service boards in Ontario reward a police chief with a six-figure retirement bonus just for fulfilling a multi-year contract. ... Why do sneakers come with laces

that are 18 inches too long? ... Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apologized to a woman protester for his smart-ass “thanks for your donation” remark at a Liberal fundraiser as she was being escorted out of the hall. But let’s not forget that the quip drew a loud ovation from his Liberal audience who seemed to see nothing wrong with the rebuke. ... In the provincial NDP ranks, a member apologized to Ottawa police after claiming in the Legislature that Ottawa cops are racists. His remarks drew a thunderous applause from the NDP caucus which includes the brother of the NDP federal leader who once was photographed with a protest sign that read “F.... the police”. Cop hating must run in the family. ... Well, how did you enjoy our two days of spring? NEW FLASH: Wiar ton Willie has joined Punxsutawney Phil in the witness protection program. ... And what about the country’s most respect weather guru David Phillips who on March 2 said winter would hang on until mid-March then we would be basking in the warmth of spring with above seasonal temps.

SPORTS STUFF Jim Robinson closed the season on a winning note claiming the senior men’s Bray Construction closing bonspiel. Robinson’s rink went through the round-robin draw with a near-perfect record (no losses, one tie) before taking the 12-rink final round. Backing him up were third Brian Clinton, second Yvon Lemire and lead Ken Waller. Gerry Goulet (Roger Comtois third, Bob Cameron second, Bob Humble lead) took second. Lionel Beauregard (Joe Lemire third, Ron Campeau second, Guy Lalonde lead) finished third. Rene Desrosiers was awarded the Spirit of Curling Award. Guy Lalonde was named best first-year player.

Don Orton was made an honourary member. ... No question Bob Cole was one of the best but I put him behind Foster Hewitt, Danny Gallivan and Dan Kelly. ... The end of the regular season is when general managers cover their mistakes by firing the

coach.

TRIVIA This United Counties’ school took its name from the Algonquin word for meeting place.

TRIVIA ANSWER Pernell-Karl Subban was born and raised in Toronto. His father, a retired school principal, and mother immigrated to Canada from Jamaica in the 1970s.

HERE AND THERE To accommodate aging baby boomers, it might be time to rename some of the Sixties’ hits. How about Splish, Splash, I Was Havin’ a Flash”, On the Commode Again, It’s My Procedure and I’ll Cry If I Want To, Denture Queen, How Can You Mend a Broken Hip?, You Make Me Feel Like Napping, A Whiter Shade of Hair, Mrs. Brown You’ve Got a Lovely Walker, and Once, Twice, Three Times to the Bathroom. ... Remember when you had to crank a car window up and down and driver’s ed included learning hand signals. P FACTS’N’FIGURES In the 10-year period 1951-1960 St. Columban’s, the city’s oldest parish, had 1,916 baptisms, 618 marriages and 914 funerals. The number of funerals was down from the previous decade which had 1,011.

AND THE BEAT GOES ON Kirk Douglas 102 (he was born Issur Danielovitch), Doris Day 97, Gina Lollobrigida 91, Clint Eastwood 88, Raquel Welch 78, rockers Keith Richards and Mick Jagger 75 (they just look 95).

ONE FINAL THING “The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.”

- Legendary baseball manager Casey Stengel. His musings became know as “Stengelese”.

Le BSEO en état d’alerte : un cas de rougeole est signalé à Ottawa

SPEC3427832

Durant la semaine du 28 mars, les élèves de 1ère année de la classe de Mme Michèle Racicot et les élèves de la classe de 4e-5e année de la classe de Mme Chantal Groulx Fontaine ont eu la chance de vivre le projet: Les Haut-Parleurs du théâtre de la Vieille 17. Ce projet vise à encourager la lecture à voix haute chez les élèves des écoles rurales ou en régions éloignées.

Les ateliers sont tous animés par des comédiens professionnels franco-ontariens, et les textes lus sont composés spécifiquement pour ce projet, par des auteurs franco-ontariens. Les élèves sont rapidement captivés par l’apprentissage d’onomatopés et les marionnettes utilisées sont dans leurs lectures! très captivantes.

Les élèves se sont amusés tout en apprenant, quoi Les élèves de la classe de Mme Michèle et de Mme demander de plus!

Chantal ont bougé, développé leur vocabulaire, appris de nouveaux mots; tout ça en utilisant tous leurs sens.

Les apprentissages effectués grâce à ce projet sont rapidement réinvestis dans les écrits des élèves et

Du théâtre pour mieux lire et écrire!

Ces jeunes humoristes représenteront donc la région Est et participeront à la finale provinciale du Concours LOL-Mort de rire!, le jeudi 2 mai prochain à 19 h au Collège catholique SamuelGenest dans le cadre de l’activité provinciale d’improvisation l’AFOLIE. Chaque jeune participant au concours avait reçu du coaching des humoristes formateurs de l’École nationale de l’humour et tous ont profité des conseils ainsi que des encouragements d’humoristes de renom. Vingt-quatre d’entre eux ont pris part à la demifinale régionale le 7 février dernier et quatre jeunes « coups de coeur » sont montés sur scène lors du spectacle de la Tournée des Rendez-vous de la Francophonie qui s’est déroulée le 22 mars dernier au théâtre Aultsville de Cornwall, en présence de de plusieurs humoristes de renom.

Le jury de la finale régionale se composait des membres suivants : Julie Dignard, Formatrice pour l’École nationale de l’humour (ENH)

ONTARIO EST - Depuis la confirmation d’un cas de rougeole à Ottawa, le Bureau de santé de l’est de l’Ontario (BSEO) a communiqué avec Santé publique Ottawa (SPO) et prendra contact avec les résidents qui sont identifiés comme ayant pu y être exposés. Aucun cas de rougeole n’a été signalé dans la région, mais le BSEO surveille la situation.

Le BSEO rappelle au grand public de s’assurer que les immunisations contre la rougeole, la leur et celle de leurs enfants, sont à jour. Dr Paul Roumeliotis, Médecin hygiéniste du BSEO, incite les résidents à se faire vacciner le cas échéant, non seulement pour se protéger eux-mêmes, mais pour protéger les gens qui ne peuvent pas se faire vacciner – incluant les nourrissons. « La rougeole est extrêmement contagieuse et peut être très grave pour les gens qui ne sont pas vaccinés », dit-il. « Elle est particulièrement dangereuse pour les bébés qui sont trop jeunes pour être immunisés et

pour les adultes dont le système immunitaire est compromis. » Le vaccin est sûr et efficace pour empêcher d’attraper et de propager la rougeole.

L’immunisation contre la rougeole est généralement administrée aux enfants âgés de 12 mois qui reçoivent ensuite une dose de rappel entre 4 et 6 ans. Les nourrissons de 6 à 12 mois peuvent être vaccinés s’ils voyagent dans des zones de flambée ou s’ils ont été exposés à un cas de rougeole. Pour le moment, aucun changement n’a été apporté à la recommandation actuelle d’immunisation des nourrissons puisqu’une flambée n’a pas été déclarée dans la région ni à Ottawa.

Le vaccin contre la rougeole est disponible sans frais chez votre fournisseur de soins de santé, et aussi sur rendez-vous au BSEO en appelant au 613-933-1375 ou au 1 800 2677120. Pour de plus amples renseignements sur la rougeole et sur l’immunisation contre la rougeole, visitez https://www.ontario.ca/fr/ page/propos-de-la-rougeole.

In loving memory of a dear husband and father who left us five years ago on April 10, 2014.

Sadly missed along life’s way, Quietly remembered every day, No longer in our life to share, But in our hearts, you’re always there.

In my heart your memory lingers, Sweetly tender, fond and true, There is not a day my beautiful wife, that I do not think of you.

May the winds of heaven blow softly, and whisper in your ear, How much I love and miss you, and wish that you were here.

All my love, Ken

OPINION

Cornwall area photographer loves to capture nature and wild life Sultan Jessa

While she is out enjoying nature armed with a camera, Cindy Rowe, a long-time Martintown resident, always looks at things from a different prospective. “Now with digital cameras, it takes no time at all to shoot a few hundred photos,” she said. “The great thing is you can immediately delete you don’t like.” Rowe studied photography for three years at St. Lawrence College.

“With the advent of digital cameras and

phones, it is so easy to get into photography.”

Rowe simply loves, admires and cares for nature. “I love nature, any and all kinds of nature.

You never know what you are going to find and see.” She loves taking photographs of loons, owls, dragon flies and mushrooms.

One time, while in the open field photographing dragonflies, she had this creepy feeling that she was being watched. “When I looked up, there was a coyote watching her from about 200 feet away,” she recalled. “I was a bit nervous, but ended up with a great shot.”There is nothing Rowe likes paddling along and finding a loon sitting on a nest right in front of her.“I always take my camera with me when I am kayaking,” Rowe said, adding

she has some great shots of eagles during such trips.

Rowe who has always worked in Cornwall, said local residents don’t have to go far to admire nature. She said there are lots of spots in the area to capture nature at its best like the Rotary Echo Garden, the Coopers Marsh, the Guindon Park and the Long Sault Parkway. Rowe has photographed migrating snow geese, snowy eagles and a variety of other birds. Whenever she travels to Florida, the first thing she wants to know about closest wetland or wildlife refuge areas.

She was photographed seals and turtles being released in the Florida area.

One of her favorite shots is of seals kissing each

Sweet time for Counties LANCASTER, Ontario – The Ontario Maple Syrup Producers Association held their fourth annual Maple Weekend on Saturday, April 6 and Sunday, April 7 and several sugar shacks in the United Counties of SD&G took part.

Participating local sugar producers included La Sucrerie à Frank Sugar Shack, in Moose Creek,

Sand Road Maple Farm, also in Moose Creek, Barkleyvale Farms, Grampie’s Sugar Shack, On The Bend Sugar Shack, all in Chesterville, Peak Forest Farms in Willaimstown, Wightman Sugar Bush in Lancaster and Erablière Souligny in Dunvegan.

Wightman Sugar Bush has been producing maple syrup since the 1930s. In 2011, Jim Wightman built a modern maple syrup producing facility that can produce over 2,000 gallons

of syrup a year.

Wightman himslef has been participating in the syrup business for 42 years.

“My brother and I were tapping when I was 9 to 10-years-old,” he said. “It started with helping my uncle, but the passion grew for me.”

The Wightman Sugar Bush has 4,900 taps. The sap taken from the taps goes through a reverse osmosis process that removes 80 to 85 percent of the water. This process creates a concentrated

sap solution that has a sugar content of 15 percent.

“Maple weekend gives you a first-hand opportunity to see how maple products are produced, from tree to table, along with the chance to taste and purchase quality maple products,” said Cheryl Wightman, sister of Jim in a press release from Cornwall Tourism. “This year the sugar content is a bit higher than last year, and warmer weather encourages the sap to flow.”

standup comics,” said Shawn Fowler, Founder of Cornwall Comedy Festival. “Barry Taylor, Dena Jackson and Nick Reynoldson are coming to Cornwall to show us why they are some of the best in the business!”

Barry Taylor, comedian and Co-Founder, said he is looking forward to having some fun and

making everyone laugh more than anything.

“We’ve gone across the country before, done shows in every province except Newfoundland.

We like going to smaller communities for sure, it’s nice to reach out to new places,” said Taylor.

“We connected with Shawn fowler of Cornwall Comedy Festival…we are big fans of

what he is doing and we are excited to work with him…we are excited to see the people and to be a part of that set of shows,” said Taylor.

Tickets to the show are available at Cornwall Civic Complex Box Office, online at CornwallComedyFestival.ca or by calling 613-938-9400.

Katie McDougald scoring for Glen Nevis in their final game against Dunvegan.

Thank you from The Buchan family

You have truly touched our hearts with your show of love, friendship, offers of assistance and donations in aid of our family. We have been just overwhelmed by the generous support shown by each of you.

Losing our home to a fire has been one of the darkest and devastating experiences our family has endured but the compassion shown to us has been nothing less than amazing and has brought some joy and peace to our hearts.

We so appreciate each and every contribution and we wish especially to thank the South and North Glengarry Fire Departments for their prompt response and valiant effort, the “wine girls” who supplied us with our basic needs within hours and organized the benefit spaghetti supper and silent auction, all those who volunteered and participated in the benefit, those who so generously donated beautiful items to the silent auction, St. Andrews Presbyterian Church for their unending support, Williamstown Public School and Char-Lan DHS for the incredible love and kindness shown to our children.

Although our house is gone, we have been able to secure a temporary home in our wonderful community where we are so deeply rooted. Although there is still much to do, we are able to rest our heads and plan for the future.

This could not have been possible without the assistance of so many.

With our love and heartfelt thanks, Missy & Rory Buchan and Family

Changing the license plate slogan, redesigning the Trillium logo, getting rid of the front license plate, are these really the top issues facing the province of Ontario right now?
