FRONT PAGE STORY
New Acute Stroke Unit opens at Cornwall Community Hospital City of Cornwall Councillor Syd Gardiner and members from the Champlain Regional Stroke Network were at Cornwall Community Hospital (CCH) on June 20 to cut a ribbon alongside CCH Board Chair Josée Payette and President & Chief Executive Officer Jeanette Despatie to celebrate the opening of a new Acute Stroke Unit. Located on the second floor of the hospital, the new Acute Stroke Unit houses 10 designated beds for patients with a stroke diagnosis requiring hospital admission. The unit is staffed by a specially-trained multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, therapists, and others, who will work with stroke patients and their families to determine the next steps for recovery. As a District Stroke Centre within the
Champlain Regional Stroke Network, CCH is the hub for patients in Eastern Champlain who need stroke care. This includes being the only local hospital capable of: administering clot-busting medication; conducting emergency tele-stroke consults with a neurologist; operating an outpatient stroke prevention clinic; and now, caring for stroke patients and helping them recover in a dedicated Acute Stroke Unit. Every year, there are an estimated 25,500 new stroke events in Ontario with 15,500 hospital admissions, and more than 5,500 will die within one year of their stroke. “A person who experiences a stroke is more likely to survive, recover and return home when early stroke care is provided by a specialized team in an Acute Stroke Unit,”
CAO Tim Simpson announces retirement In 1990 the Edmonton Oilers were the Stanley Cup champions, gasoline cost less than 60 cents a litre and Tim Simpson was beginning a career in municipal government that would wind its way through 33 years of successes. After 11 years in the position, today Simpson announced his retirement from the County effective the end
of 2022. Simpson’s career has included stops as a Planner with the former Township of Charlottenburgh, planning and administrative roles with the Town of Renfrew as well as CAO in Lanark Highlands and Town of Perth. “Deciding to retire from a position you enjoy and worked hard to achieve is very difficult,” Simpson said. “With an election in several months and a new term of Council to be sworn-in in December, I’ve decided that now is the right time to step aside and move on from full-time work. Having more time will allow me to pursue the many activities I enjoy outside of full-time work.”

Simpson leaves behind a legacy of professionalism, efficiency, and modernization, said Warden Carma Williams. “On behalf of Counties Council we salute Tim for his dedication to the United Counties of SDG and the residents who call our beautiful region home,” said Williams. “Tim has a reputation for hard work, loyalty, and for this in-depth understanding of municipal operations. This is evidenced by his hard work on recent projects like the Counties’ focus on rural education. We wish Tim and his wife Shona all the best as they enter this new chapter.”
Simpson said his 11 years as CAO of the United Counties of SDG marks the highlight of his career in municipal government. “One of the things that continues to inspire me is having an important role in the development and implementation of policies and programs that directly impact the daily lives of our residents,” he said. “County staff, both current and former, have worked hand-in-hand with me over the years and I wish to extend to them my heartfelt thanks and respect.” County Council is currently considering its options with respect to filling the role.

illuminated red this month in support of stroke awareness. “Local residents can take comfort in knowing they are receiving these high-quality healthcare services at Cornwall Community Hospital, who continue to work hard to enhance the care offerings and services in our community,” said Councillor Gardiner. Time is critically important when treating stroke, as the longer someone goes without intervention, the more brain cells are damaged or die. That’s why if you suspect that you or someone is having a stroke, remember to act F.A.S.T., which stands for Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, and Time to call 911. These simple steps take less than a minute and can help you diagnose a stroke.
ADVERTORIAL
How to avoid heat stress As you age, it’s more difficult for your body to regulate heat, which can result in health complications. Here are some tips to help you survive the hot summer days ahead. KEEP YOUR SPACE COOL If you don’t have an air conditioner, use fans to circulate the air in your home. Close curtains and windows during the day to block out the hot sun and open them on cooler nights to lower the temperature inside. HYDRATE REGULARLY Seniors are less likely to feel thirsty than younger people. Therefore, it’s important to prevent dehydration by drinking frequently, even before you feel thirsty. Drink cool water, eat juicy fruits and vegetables and avoid drinks that can dehydrate you, like alcohol and coffee. REFRESH YOURSELF Try to keep your body at a healthy temperature. You can do this by taking refreshing showers or baths, swimming or covering your skin with wet towels. LIMIT YOUR ACTIVITIES Avoid strenuous activities that raise your
says Lisa McDonnell, Director of the Champlain Regional Stroke Network. “With the opening of this new unit, Cornwall Community Hospital continues to prove that it is committed to the exceptional leadership, development, implementation, and coordination of local stroke care in the East Champlain region,” adds McDonnell. “The dedicated, specialized care offered through the new Acute Stroke Unit will continue to build on Cornwall Community Hospital’s ability to provide the highest level of services to our patients and the region and save lives,” says Jeanette Despatie, CCH President and Chief Executive Officer.

Jethro Tull’s Martin Barre arrives in Cornwall, July 7 to perform at Aultsville Theatre. He will celebrate the Aqualung 50th Anniversary Tour with original Tull band member, Clive Bunker! In 1969, a band of four English musicians arrived in New York and took America by storm. Over the next 50 years, this legendary band accumulated over 65 million record sales and generated a loyal fanbase that are the envy of rock bands worldwide! This band was Jethro Tull. Aqualung, probably the most famous of all Jethro Tull’s albums, now celebrates 50 years since its 1971 release. At the centre of Tull’s unique sound is guitarist Martin Barre, renowned for his formidable riffs, power chords and soaring melodic
solos. Martin Barre was Jethro Tull’s guitarist for over 43 years. His sound and playing was a major factor in the band’s worldwide success, with his Aqualung playing voted the 25th best solo ever in the USA and 20th best in the UK. Barre’s playing on the album ‘Crest of a Knave’ earned him a Grammy Award in 1989. Martin says: “Aqualung was the album that defined Tull. Sumptuous melodies, big dynamics and power riffs galore. Acoustic met electric…and it all worked.” Martin is thrilled to present the 50th anniversary of the release of the iconic and legendary Aqualung album with a worldwide tour including tour dates in Canada this summer. This spectacular show will feature The Martin Barre Band – featuring lead vocalist Dan Crisp, keyboard player Alan Thomson, and drummer Darby Todd, together with original Jethro Tull drummer and percussionist Clive Bunker. The anniversary tour is a once in a lifetime opportunity to sit back and relive this legendary album, played in full and in sequence for the first time. 368531

The cultures and identities of Indigenous peoples are rooted in the land, and honouring connections to place is an important part of reconciliation. Working together towards a renewed relationship, today, the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne, the Township of South Glengarry, and Parks Canada announced they are collaborating on a common vision for conserving the natural and cultural heritage and sharing the stories of Tsikatsinakwahere, or Cairn Island. Tsikatsinakwahere, or Cairn Island, is a small, acre-sized island in the St. Lawrence River, and is part of the traditional territory of Akwesasne. Its traditional name refers to the shape of the ground that resembles a bird’s nest. In the 1920s, Cairn Island was designated a national historic site for the large monument built on the island in 1842 commemorating service in the Upper Canada Rebellion. The island was frequented over the years by generations of visitors and local residents. In the 1990s, out of respect for the territory and recognition of the cultural
significance of the island to the Mohawks of Akwesasne, the island was closed to visitors. Recognizing that Cairn Island holds meaning to all of its past users, the partners are committed to ensuring Indigenous connections and cultural significance of the island are honoured and Indigenous rights are respected. Through shared understanding and mutual respect, presenting the story of the island and the different perspectives on its history is part of the path toward reconciliation. The Mohawk Council of Akwesasne, the Township of South Glengarry and Parks Canada are committed to preserving the island in its current natural state and sharing its historical significance. They will develop publicly accessible interpretive materials supported by Parks Canada. By ensuring that the history of Cairn Island is told, Canadians will have an opportunity to learn more about important periods of our past and enrich the understanding of ourselves, each other, and our country.

You love the new Nick Kaneb Road extension. It was constructed last year and runs from Marleau to Tenth Street. It cuts several minutes off your commute. It also allows you to avoid the congestion at McConnell and Ninth, particularly those of you commuting to Industrial Avenue. You love this road extension. However, within the city, we live with wildlife. And we need wildlife for a healthy ecosystem, even in urban areas. A healthy ecosystem supplies us with oxygen, clean air, and clean water. They feed on fish and small invertebrates such as crayfish, leeches, and beetles. This helps keep those invertebrate populations in check. And some turtle species help spread plant seeds within wetlands. This road extension runs through an area that is home to many turtles, and since we have altered their environment, they need our assistance. All native turtle species need to lay their eggs on dry land, and they often need to cross roads to get to their nesting sites.
When traveling the Nick Kaneb Road extension, keep your eyes open for turtles, they are an important species. Pay attention farther ahead on the road. Start slowing down early if you see a small, dark spot up ahead. It may be a turtle. It would be helpful to the turtle if you helped it cross the road. Always move the turtle in the direction it is headed. Walk up behind the turtle and grip the back end of its shell. Make sure to keep your fingers away from the turtle’s head to avoid injury. Carry the turtle across the road and leave it at least 10m from the road. If you see an injured turtle, contact the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre at 705-741-5000. Did you know that all of Ontario’s eight turtle species are at risk of disappearing? As Cornwall becomes a more sustainable and wildlife friendly city, engineers are looking into how our new roads can be adapted to help reduce wildlife road mortality. We live on a human-modified planet and cities are rapidly expanding around the world. But we cannot forget about the species who we share this planet with. So, when driving on this road, keep your eyes peeled, and slow down. If you spot a turtle on this new road extension, send me an email at aparker@cornwall. ca.

As many of you may have foreseen, we have made the exciting leap to merge careers going forward. As many of you know, prior to the pandemic, both of us had thriving careers with our respective bands, recording and touring internationally for many years and racking up many accolades along the way. We were extremely grateful and blessed for our successes, and thankful to all who helped us along the way. The last two years being what they were, brought many significant changes to all our lives. It was also a time where we both realized the intense chemistry and connection we have not only offstage, but onstage as well. Subsequently, we began writing, recording and performing together and we both feel that the combination of our spirits and personalities make for an extremely exciting and powerful combo! We’re very excited about our future in love, life and music, and look forward to sharing some more very exciting news in the coming weeks!!! Here’s to love and music ya’ll, and here’s to more Sass, Blues, Soul and Rock and Roll!!!
North Valley Public School (S.S.#18) hosts reunion Plans are well underway, for a Reunion Celebration for all former students of the North Valley Public School, known as S.S.#18. According to some research done by Joan (Brownell) Poapst; on June 9, 1873, a half-acre lot measuring 9 rod square and located on the south-east corner of the east-half of lot #23 on the 6th. Concession of Osnabruck Township, was deeded over from the farm of John and Mary Dunbar, to the Trustees of the Common School section number 18, for the price of $60.00. A fire destroyed the original log structure and was replaced by a larger, framed oneroom-school house of which all of those attending the reunion will well remember. The school closed its doors in June 1959 and all area children were bussed to Newington Public or Rothwell Public School in Ingleside. The event will be held on Thursday, July 28, from 1 to 5 PM at Trinity United Church in Ingleside. Chief organizers, Shirley (Bilmer) Heagle and Ian MacLean, state that the Bell for “Morning Exercises” will ring at 1:15 PM kicking off a lively program that includes Door Prizes. There will be a charge of $10 or $15 at the door to cover costs of the day as well as some afternoon Recess treats and drinks. Any money left over after expenses will be given to our local Foodbank.

Tourism App adds five new locations
After a wildly successful first year, the South Dundas Tourism Pursuit app is relaunching for the 2022 summer tourism season with five new locations for users to enjoy. These include: • Grand Truck Locomotive 1008 • Carman House Museum • Russell Manor B&B • Winchester Springs Sanitorium Mural • Rijke’s Produce Farm The app, a partner project between the Municipality of South Dundas and St. Lawrence College, encourages users to scan a QR code at various locations to college badges, play mobile games and win digital prizes. Developed by the College’s Game Programming students in 2020/21, the latest release required work by two final year students, Johan Carette and Serhii Marchenko, who have now graduated from the program and worked under the leadership of Gaming Professor, James Dupuis. In addition to the new locations, the re-launch event on June 15, 2022, included the presentation of a copy of the Economic
Developers Association of Canada 2022 Social Media/App Marketing award to Dupuis and his students for their efforts. Glenn Vollebregt, SLC President and CEO, says that providing students with real-world work experience is what an SLC education is all about. “The hallmark of our programs is experiential learning, and this opportunity to work on the Tourism Pursuit app to add new locations is a perfect example of how our graduates become career ready. We are also very proud to share in the Marketing Award from the Economic Development Association of Canada that the Municipality of South Dundas won this year.” “We were thrilled to win the EDAC award earlier this year and even more so to share the award with James and his students. This continued partnership with St. Lawrence College reiterates the opportunities that are available in South Dundas. We’re looking forward to more people exploring the area with the app and the current users having some new locations to enjoy,” said Rob Hunter, Economic Development Officer.

• Water wisely. Water your lawn and garden only every second day and do it early in the morning. Avoid wasting water on sidewalks and other paved areas. • Wash your car only if necessary. • Wash only full loads of laundry. By washing full instead of partial loads, you could save up to 13,600 litres of water a year. • Fix leaks. A leaking faucet can waste up to 11,000 litres of year and a leaking toilet can waste up to 275,000 litres a year. To check your toilet for leaks, add a few drops of food coloring or a dye tablet to the water in the tank, but do not flush the toilet. Watch to see if the coloring appears in the bowl within a few minutes. If it does, the toilet has a silent leak that needs to be repaired. PLEASE HELP US BY RESTRICTING UNNECESSARY WATER USE IN YOUR HOME. EVERY DROP COUNTS!

Welcome to the silly season... and we don’t mean family barbecues No, we’re talking about the municipal election cycle, and the last three or four months before ballots are cast usually results in more than a few dramatic episodes. We’re told that the integrity commissioner is sniffing around city hall once again. And once again Justin Towndale is at the centre of things - only this time the city councillor who wants to be mayor is the aggrieved. A code of conduct complaint has been filed with the city over Mayor Glen Grant’s gaffe a couple of weeks ago. You’ll recall that Grant issued a campaign media release from his city hall email account recently which contravenes the Municipal Elections Act - he should have sent it from his personal account and laptop. Towndale, whose well-known father Angelo is making calls in Cornwall to solicit support for his son, and Grant are the current front runners to be elected. It is ultimately city administration that makes the decision on whether to forward code of conduct complaints to the integrity commissioner. Given the time of year, and with Towndale’s track record for calling out administration publicly, it’s hardly a surprise that city managers have booted the ball over to the integrity commissioner to investigate. A few things to consider... The integrity commissioner knows exactly who Towndale is, and the city councillor likewise knows exactly how these processes evolve.
Towndale was publicly reprimanded for breaching council’s own code of conduct just last year when he used a Tweet to lambaste the city and a former fire chief. Towndale was upset because the chief had resigned, and no one thought to inform council before the news went public. The fire chief had submitted his resignation on May 20, 2020 at 8:26 p.m. and council was advised of the decision at 7:36 a.m. the following day - a pretty quick turnaround, we’d suggest. And get this...there is no policy in Cornwall requiring staff members to advise council of their resignation, nor is there any policy that requires administration to advise council of a staff member’s resignation. Now with the ink barely dry on last year’s reprimand, Towndale finds himself in the spotlight again. The complaint that will create another integrity commissioner investigation. Some people may suggest that this reek of small-city politics, amplified by a looming municipal election. Will this help Towndale, or hurt him? We’re quite confident that while Towndale’s 2020 indiscretion would have been addressed at some point during this election, it was unlikely to create a major stir. It’s old news. But now, with ink barely dry on Towndale’s reprimand from a year ago, the playing field has been reset. Now voters, the media and Towndale’s own critics can begin pointing at 2020 once again and saying: “What about what YOU did?”
Some might even go as far as suggesting the mayor’s error is relatively minor, compared to a city councillor who used their platform to call out innocent municipal staff for breaking rules that don’t even exist. We weren’t even going to bring it up again...but now... When the file plummets onto the integrity commissioner’s desk, this
time, we feel safe in making the following prediction...it’ll land with a thud. As mentioned last week, we agree the mayor should not have sent the campaign media release from his city computer and municipal email account. Full stop. He was wrong. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. But the integrity commissioner?! C’mon...

Because my foreign travels have been curtailed by COVID precautions and lack of insurance coverage, I see no return visits to Malta, Cuba or Santorini on the horizon. However, during the past week, ferries took Juliet and me on cruises to three delightful islands: Howe, Wolfe, and Amherst. Amherst is about 10 km west of Kingston, is about 20 km long and can be accessed by a public ferry that plies the 3 km from Millhaven to the island. We hadn’t been on Amherst for several years. During that interval, in September 2015, the Irish-Canadian International Dry Stone Festival took place on the island. Dry Stone Canada is an organization that
promotes, teaches, builds and restores stone walls. What we discovered during our June 2022 visit to Amherst is shown from a selection of my dozens of photos of the products of the 2015 gathering. The permanent display is across the road from the island’s elementary school and just a bit more than a stone’s throw from Stella, the island’s ferry terminal and its only store. By the way, I don’t throw stones; one of my passions is building stone walls. People who build these impressive walls define a rock as “an unemployed stone”. Why build stone walls? In countries like Ireland, Scotland and England, they were a by-product of clearing the land of glacial debris (rocks) for planting crops and grazing livestock. What to do with the rocks? Use them to create walls to keep your animals, and those of others, in - or out. When a surplus of time and rocks presented itself, the craft, science and art of building dry
DRY STONE ASSEMBLY – This is an impressive sampling of what Amherst Island’s 2015 Dry Stone Festival created. (Photo by Nick Wolochatiuk) stone walls evolved. No mortar cements the Island, rumour has it there’s a dry stone wall currently under construction at 55 St. walls’ rocks. Gravity and the skill do the job. If you don’t have time to visit Amherst Lawrence Drive, Ingleside.

Dear Editor, The Resurrection of “Martin Luther King” Tourism, in the good old USA. Why would anyone these days ever consider, a vacation to the USA? Financially their currency “In God we Trust” is their only advantage. The last decade plus, have left their lives,
in their own country in jeopardy, anywhere outside their home. Public place are the most dangerous. The “Right to Bear Arms” American mentality should not mean to have ‘a bible in one pocket’ and ‘a gun in the other’. Amen! E.F. Laprade
Better rules for seniors needed Dear Editor: I write with respect to my recent experience concerning my elderly father at the Cornwall Community Hospital on McConnell Avenue. My father is 92 years old and has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. He was recently (June 13, 2022) at the Emergency department not feeling well and confused. I was not allowed to accompany him nor was I allowed to check in on him while he was being examined. This is deplorable and unacceptable when one considers his confused state. My goal was to provide assurance to my father and answer questions concerning my fathers health and well being. I was denied access to my father throughout the day. This draconian, and inhumane policy is
unacceptable on many levels. In the Cornwall Community Hospital (CCH) Children can be accompanied by parents and disabled persons can be accompanied by their caregivers however elderly patients cannot be accompanied by a family member. I was polite and respectful with the staff during my attempt to accompany my father but was treated like a common criminal while 2 security guards stood by ready to remove me from the CCH entrance. The aforementioned CCH policy is discriminatory and needs to me changed concerning accompaniment and access to our elderly citizens. Yours Sincerely, Susan Lowe

A very proud Father’s Day On this Father’s Day I want to take a minute to recognize my father. It was 26 years ago that he first came up with the idea of the Children’s Treatment Centre as a place to help those who had suffered abuse. This was after he took early retirement from Children’s Aid in order to save that organization money. At the time, they were having funding issues. My father recruited a team of qualified individuals and volunteers. From very humble beginnings, and a small office on Edward Street, he saw his vision become a reality. My dad’s work went beyond his hours in the office. Growing up, I saw the long hours he’d spend at home. Hours on the phone, hours planning events, etc. His job was simple, yet complicated: Secure funding for the CTC. One of the unique features of the CTC is that it receives absolutely no government funding whatsoever. It is entirely funded based on donations, the majority of which are from our community. It is due primarily to his efforts, over 26 years, that the CTC has been able to ensure its ongoing operation. That the lights can stay on, and that
those who need help will have unfettered access to it. Public recognition is not something that my dad looks for, or wants. This is why he’s always in the back office, or the back of the room, or even in the next room in the case of at least one event. However, this time, something different has happened. To mark the 25th anniversary of the CTC, the Board of Directors unanimously voted to rename the CTC in honour of my father. This is a great honour, and while its very well deserved and befitting, it has been hard for my father to accept it. Its not something he wanted. For this, I’m proud to call him my dad. Happy Father’s Day Angelo. Justin M. Towndale

The good folks who serve on the Children’s Treatment Centre board came up with a wonderful way to honour Angelo Towndale who planted the seeds for the centre back in 1996, one year after he retired from the children’s aid society, and ever since has worked tirelessly behind the scenes as choreographer-in-chief. In some ways, he is the treatment centre. It is hard to imagine the centre without Angelo Towndale quietly working the phones in his tiny office on the centre’s second floor. He is the master of gentle persuasion. The board decided to name the centre the Angelo Towndale Children’s Treatment Centre. Who could argue? Well, there was one person. His name was Angelo Towndale. So on Friday night, at the 25th anniversary dinner (postponed last year by the pandemic), with much fanfare the surprise announcement was made. It received a rousing standing ovation. But it won’t be. The man who lives and breathes humility, has declined the honour. The centre is not about me, he told board members later that evening. Besides, he would find it awkward beating the bushes for financial support for an organization named after him. “I couldn’t do that,” he said.” It’s just not me. Besides, I get enough (unwanted) recognition.” Towndale wasn’t at the anniversary dinner. He has been hunkered down in his west Cornwall home since March 2020, when the pandemic hit and everything went into pandemic lockdown. As someone in his mid-80s, he is being super cautious, even after all his shots and the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions. “I left the office on March 13 (2020) and haven’t been back,” he noted. But, that hasn’t stopped him from working the phones, eight to 10 hours a day taking care of business. Up in heaven, Father Rudy Villeneuve, the man who opened the door in 1965 for a young Loyola University (Chicago) student to come to Cornwall to work for the children’s aid society, is smiling and saying, “That’s Angelo.” NOTE TO READER If you don’t believe in Divine intervention and/or predestination you might change your mind upon hearing how Angelo Towndale came to Cornwall and how he walked away unscathed after his car crashed into a fast-moving freight train at the Lancaster rail crossing. That’s a story for another time. THIS AND THAT: Ah, the topsy turveyness of June. Turned on the air conditioning on Wednesday, turned on the fire place on Saturday. ... Reader Ron “Bear” Kyer recalled the car with loud speakers on the roof that drove around town with the driver blaring out public announcements in the 1950s. And, leaflets dropped from a low flying air plane. ... One of the first things a new United Counties council will have on its “To Do” list will be the search for a new chief administrator. Current CAO Tim Simpson will retire at end of the year. ... Insp. Dave Michaud of Cornwall Police Service is
new president of the Children’s Treatment Centre board. ... Separate school board trustee Todd Lalonde considering a run for South Glengarry council. He has an impressive resume that includes almost two decades as a trustee, representing Cornwall and South Glengarry with a stint as chair, a former Conservative candidate and a member of the St. Lawrence Parks Commission. ... Rolland “Rolly” Fobert who died last week coached one of Cornwall Collegiate’s most successful senior boys’ basketball teams in the 1960s. He also wrote an excellent history of St. Columban’s parish. THIS MONTH IN 1961: Cornwall had the dubious distinction of leading the province in the number of residents collecting a welfare cheque every month, on a per capita basis. According to the department of public welfare (as it was called in the day), 8.9% of Cornwall’s 43,989 residents were in need of welfare support cheques. Cornwall also had the highest increase in welfare recipients in April, when the city’s welfare rolls increased by nine percent, almost double the provincial average. ... A handsome Cornwall Classical College student named Bob Kilger was chosen to serve as escort for Diane Bellefeuille, newly crowned queen of La Semaine Francaise. She was a St. Lawrence High School student. Kilger would go on to become a long-time MP for StormontDundas-South Glengarry, assistant to the deputy Speaker of the house and two-term mayor of Cornwall. ... It was dial-up time for the 600 Bell Telephone Avonmore exchange customers. On June 18, the operator “number please” was replaced by the dial service. Customers also got a new seven-digit number. TRIVIA Pat Brady was the comical sidekick in the Roy Rogers television series. What did he nickname the jeep used in the show? TRIVIA ANSWER Imperial Oil (ESSO) used the “Put a Tiger in Your Tank” slogan in its advertising during the 1960s. Retired St Lawrence College prof Dick Aubry worked for the oil giant when the company came out with the slogan. Did it work? Aubry said gasoline sales spiked during the months long campaign. PART TWO: Ernest Bushnell of Bushnell Communications made a pitch to leave the CBC TV network. He wanted to move CJOH (Ottawa), CFCF (Montreal) and CJSS (Cornwall) to the new start-up CTV Network. The Board of Broadcast Governors was considering the proposal. ... Philip S. Robertson was named publisher and general manager of The StandardFreeholder. Robertson, a Cornwall native, started with the Cornwall Standard weekly in 1928. In 1959 he moved to Toronto to become assistance to St. Clair McCabe, executive vice-president and general manager of the rapidly expanding Thomson Newspaper chain. ... Cornwall’s four coin-operated laundromats closed on Sundays after a Supreme Court of Canada ruling that said the province’s laundromats that remained open on the sabbath were in violation of the Lord’s Day Act. ... Appleton’s Fish and Chips at Ninth and Pitt streets re-opened. ... Seaway Cruise Lines was operating boat tours from the St. Lawrence Park docks. ... Stormont MP (Conservative) Grant Campbell called on the government to reduce the retirement age for Canadian workers to 60 from 65.

The ReMove Project
– a turn key solution when moving or downsizing I would like to take this opportunity to introduce a new project from Habitat for Humanity Cornwall & The Counties – The ReMove Project – a turn key solution when moving or downsizing. Habitat Cornwall has launched this new project to meet a growing need in our community. We often receive calls from people as they are downsizing or moving as well as from executors of estates. They have household items to be moved to new locations but are unsure what to do with the rest of the ‘stuff’. In 2020, in a 10-day period, we received 3 requests for assistance in clearing out homes due to major downsizing or estate closure. At the time, we did not have the project, funding or other resources in place. However, we have since secured funding from the Ontario Trillium Foundation and the City of Cornwall to pilot the ReMove Project. Shortly after the initial launch, it was identified that the project should be adjusted to allow for more modified and tailorable options. This led to the adapted ReMove Express; for families with shorter timelines, fewer items or in need of assistance in taking unsalvageable items to the landfill – all extremely. This has increased the potential number of families to be served. The ReMove Project is a fee-based service. Habitat Cornwall staff and volunteers will assist in sorting, packing, transporting, and reselling items instead of mass disposal of unwanted estate items. We will work with community

ReMove Contact: If you or someone you know is interested in more information – or wants to schedule an assessment – we invite you to contact our ReMove Project Coordinator, Sondra, via email at remove@habitatcornwall.org or via phone at 613-979-MOVE. About Habitat for Humanity Cornwall & The Counties: Habitat for Humanity Cornwall & The Counties has been operating in our community since 1998. Together with community partners, we build safe, affordable home for local, low-income, working families. To date, we have proudly built 16 homes meaning 43 children have a safe roof over their heads. We are also currently completing our 17th home build in South Dundas on a building lot generously donated by the Municipality of South Dundas. Once homes are completed, they are appraised and sold to local families at fair market value. Habitat Cornwall holds the mortgages and amortizes it over 20 years. Two major barriers to homeownership are the down payment and obvious monthly mortgage payments – and that’s exactly where Habitat’s across Canada help. We offer our partner families an interest-free mortgage which never exceeds 30% of the total household income. Instead of a financial down payment, partner families dedicate 500 of volunteer service. Partner Family mortgage payments are deposited into a specific account which is only used to build more local homes.
Habitat for Humanity ReStores rely on their communities. Supporting your local ReStore helps Habitat build more homes for families in need of a safe, decent and affordable place to live.
We also fundraise within our community and operate our best fundraiser – the Cornwall ReStore. Nationally, the Habitat for Humanity ReStores have been operating for 30 years. Through donations of furniture, appliances, building supplies and more, The ReStore assists with waste diversion from our already taxed landfill system. This also provides an economical shopping option and a great resource for thrift shoppers and treasure hunters. Above editorial submitted by Habitat for Humanity Cornwall

members to divert useable items from landfills and promote proper stewardship. Items will be able to be resold in the Cornwall ReStore, which will assist other community members in purchasing items second hand in place of purchasing new items which will only continue to add to landfill waste. The family no longer has to worry about the burden of the unwanted material. Habitat will even offer a basic clean (consisting of passing a vacuum and wiping counters) to ensure the home is ready for its new owners. We will also be able to issue a tax receipt to the donor or estate for the resalable value of the donated items in the ReStore. The project has helped build stronger relationships and forge new partnerships with other local organizations, thereby helping more families through their programming and user groups. When completing a ReMove Project, items which can not be sold in the ReStore are transported to other non-profit organizations; linens are taken to the OSPCA animal shelter helping families find lost pets or add new pets to their home; food is taken to a local food bank helping families facing food insecurity; clothing is donated to the local women’s shelter helping families fleeing domestic violence or to the Agape Centre or Salvation army helping families when they are most vulnerable. Benefits to families exceed project services. These families have the relief of having trusted assistance during an extremely stressful and sensitive time with support from trained and empathetic Habitat staff and volunteers.

Kids’ event promotes healthy lifestyles, sense of accomplishment and lots of fun All youngsters come away winners during the Cornwall Multisport Club Kids’ Day. From tiny tykes ages 6 and under, through to 16-year-olds, this year’s popular event will be held Sunday, July 10 at Lamoureux Park and is free to everyone in the community. “We really want to encourage parents to bring their youngsters down to the park for it,” encouraged Monique Branchaud, one of the event leads. “The event is meant to encourage kids’ to become physically active, but it also promotes important qualities like good sportsmanship and fair play. The CMC club has organized the event for several years, and members eagerly look forward to it every summer. The organization is especially delighted to welcome its return this summer after two years of it being sidelined due to the pandemic. The event is truly a kid-friendly morning that is specifically designed to encourage participation in a positive, non-competitive atmosphere geared towards all levels of physical ability. “For instance, not only do we have awards for each age group, but every participant who
crosses the finish line receives a finishers’ medal,” she added. “They take such pride in this, it’s a real sense of accomplishment for them, and they’ll end up wearing it the whole day. “It’s great to see them running across the finish line with big smiles on their faces.” In addition, club members also volunteer as pace bunnies for the events. This ensures that no participant is left behind on the course, and that there’s someone there to see they get over the finish. Kids’ of all levels of physical fitness are encouraged to register and no special equipment is required except a pair of running shoes. “You see the pacer run up with the kids, then step back as the kids would cross the finish on their own. It’s a very positive thing for participants.” Registration takes place from 10 – 10:20 a.m. at the bandshell. It will take place rain or shine. Those interested may also sign-up in advance by visiting http://www.cornwallmultisportclub.com/cmckids.shtml The race routes are all in Lamoureux Park
The Touch a Truck event is back!
5 pm to 7 pm, whereas the second will take place on August 25, from 6 pm to 8 pm. On both days, residents will have the chance to get up close and personal with several of the City’s vehicles. That includes, among many, fire trucks, an ambulance, police cars and more! City staff will also be on hand to give tours of the vehicles. But wait, there’s more! Residents will also have the chance to learn more about the
participants, and their supporters are welcome to pack a picnic to enjoy while cheering them on. The awards ceremony will be held at 11:30 a.m. On average, 80 youth register for the event, but there’s no cap on it. The non-competitive atmosphere still has an official air which makes it especially fun for them. “Each participant has their own race bib, it’s on a marked course, we have race marshals and pacers, plus they receive a finishers’ medal. It’s such a positive event for them, even if they’ve never run before. It’s a great day,” Branchaud enthused.
many services that are being offered to them through several information booths. “These events are the culmination of a number of popular activities that we previously held prior to COVID,” said Mellissa Morgan, Administrator of the City of Cornwall’s Human Services Department. “It is an opportunity for the City to host a free event that will encourage families and individuals to get out and meet city staff and
learn more about city departments, all while having some fun.” “This community event is something we’ve been working on for some time and it’s amazing to see it all come together,” said Cornwall Fire Services Deputy Chief Leighton Woods. “We are looking forward to being in the community more and sharing information. Come out and learn about City services.”
golf/dine enjoy the day For the greatest amount of power (distance) with the least amount of effort be sure to tap into your BIG muscles; shoulders and hips! Big shoulder turn as you take the club away, big hip turn to swing down and through to your target. You’ll hit the ball father with greater ease and less tension if you can take the emphasis off hands and arms and focus on shoulders and hips. Carol Ann Baxter, LPGA/PGA

Mark your calendars! After a short hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Cornwall’s popular Touch a Truck event is coming back this year… twice! Both events — which are free to attend and will of course feature the City’s largest sprinkler — will be hosted in Lamoureux Park, right in front of the Cornwall Civic Complex, on Newsy Lalonde Way. The first event will be taking place on June 28 (rain date June 29), from
and around the bandshell area. Distances vary from 700 metres (6 and under), 1.25 km (7-9), 2.5 km (10-12) to 3.75 km (13 +). It is very important to remember, however, that any child is welcome to run a shorter distance if they prefer: participation and fun are the names of this game. Events for ages 6 and under begin at 10:30 a.m., with all other age groups as listed to follow. The awards ceremony will be held immediately after the final participant crosses the finish line. The event takes place rain or shine. A light snack will be provided for the

Qualities to look for in a post-retirement job
Update your résumé for job hunting
The notion of relaxing on a beach all day in one’s golden years is still a retirement dream for millions of adults across the globe. But many individuals also harbor a desire to keep working after retiring. Whether it’s a volunteering gig or a part-time job retirees are looking for, certain qualities can make an opportunity uniquely suited to a post-retirement job. • Flexibility: Flexibility is something to look for in a post-retirement job. This is what makes consultant work so attractive to retirees. In-person hours may not be required of consultants, who can then offer their input while visiting their grandchildren or traveling the world. • Socialization: Though the ability to work from home can make it easier for retirees to earn some extra money, some seniors aren’t concerned about their finances but want to work so they can get out of the house. In that case, look for a job that offers the opportunity to socialize and meet new people. Socializing as an older adult is a great way to fend off loneliness. • Engagement: A job seniors find engaging also is more likely to provide the types of benefits seniors are looking for in post-retirement work. If seniors find themselves simply going through the motions with their post-retirement work, they can look for
Many people may think that résumé writing is a “one and done” process, but that’s not the case. The Balance: Careers says a résumé should be updated and tweaked each time a person applies for a position. In many instances, a functional résumé format, which emphasizes skills over linear job experience, is a good choice because it can gloss over gaps in the résumé or frequent job changes. Remember to fill the résumé with the same verbiage used in the job posting. If scanning software is used to cull résumés for key words, yours will have the right words and phrases. Prepare for remote interviews: Even after businesses have reopened, remote interviews will likely be the norm. Set up an interview spot in your home with good lighting, a neutral background, limited distractions, and a desirable camera angle. Practice being interviewed digitally. Master various meeting applications by downloading necessary software in advance so that technical difficulties will not derail the process. The interviewer sees only your background, so utilize a paper or whiteboard in front of you with notes or talking points. A job search may be complicated by the coronavirus, but there are steps to make it easier to find a job. With
opportunities that they can be more enthusiastic about. • Pressure-free: Regardless of what retirees did for a living prior to calling it a career, chances are they dealt with work-related stress. After a lifetime of confronting work-related stress, individuals who want to work in retirement should look for pressure-free opportunities. The right post-retirement job may differ from what individuals looked for during their careers. Various qualities can combine to make for a post-retirement gig that benefits seniors in myriad ways.

NEWS FROM THE SQUARE Did you know that the mall escalators are not a playground, both the “UP” and “DOWN” escalators are an amenity, a method of vertical transportation that require those whose use them to be careful and remember that whichever direction you are going, you are in motion and need to pay attention and hold on to the rail? Parents need to make sure that their young children are under control at all times and remain alert. Improper use of an escalator can result in falls that can cause bruises, scrapes, cuts and even breaks. Escalators have been known to stop suddenly due to a mechanical issue, hence the need to hold on to the rail. Anyone with balance and or mobility issues are far better to use the passenger elevator located at the west end of the mall as an alternative. Our new Lotto Booth is open, Natasha and her team are happy to serve your lottery needs. Check out the Lotto Booth’s new look. After last Thursday evening, nine cars, 2 trucks and 3 motorcycles from the Cornwall Road Warriors Car Club can now say that “they went for a drive in the mall”. How does one get all these vehicles in place inside the mall? The answer is, gingerly! Two cars even backed in through the open doors and into their final position. The Do What I Want Kiosk found itself in the middle of the action as vehicles drove on both sides of the kiosk before making their turn down the main mall to their car show location. Teams from the
Cornwall Road Warriors Car Club and the Cornwall Square maintenance and administration were able to position all the vehicles in an hour after which they were roped off and ready for their polishing session. By noon on Friday the car show was attracting crowds of visitors enjoying the experience indoors, comfortable in knowing that weather was not going to spoil their visit to the car show and that once done, they could do some shopping or grab something to eat o drink in the Food Court. The Cornwall Road Warriors Car Club’s raffle draw bin in support of Hospice Cornwall was also filling up with ballots which means good news for the Hospice Cornwall. Summer just arrived. Hooray!

L’offre de ces bourses s’inscrit dans la mission de la Caisse à contribuer aux mieux-être économique et social des personnes et des collectivités, en appuyant concrètement les jeunes dans la poursuite et la réussite de leurs études au
niveau postsecondaire. Un des récipiendaires, Jacob Leroux, souligne son appréciation pour la bourse : « Merci beaucoup à Desjardins Ontario pour cette bourse d’étude et de soutenir les étudiants lors de leur parcours postsecondaire. Cette bourse me permettra de réduire mon stress financier et de concentrer mes efforts à finir mon B.Com en finance à l’Université d’Ottawa. Merci encore! ». Une étudiante adulte nous fait part de l’importance que cette bourse aura sur son parcours : « Comme étudiante adulte, je ne peux exprimer à quel point je suis reconnaissante de recevoir cette bourse de 1 000 $. Elle m’aidera énormément et réduira mon stress financier qui accompagne le retour aux études. Merci. ».
