Family math night at LPS T

his sounds like…fun?? It was not only fun, but an up-roaring success, last Wednesday night (November 27) at Loughborough Public School in Sydenham, when the library filled with parents and children from kindergarten to grade 3 enthusiastically playing a variety of card and board games. It all began with the idea of primary teacher Sharon Isbell, to help teach math Joanne Ankers and her Granddaughter Allie playing a numbers game at Family Math Night and number skills through the use of games.

Sydenham resident concerned after finding a bullet hole in his basement wall by Jeff Green yan Vowles lives on Morgan Drive, in a newer subdivision in Sydenham, not far from Sydenham High School, with his wife Maegan Leavitt and their young children. The family moved into their new home 5 years ago and say they love living in Sydenham. But they don’t love what happened a couple of weeks ago. Sometime between Saturday, November 16th and Thursday, November 30, someone shot at their house. “I went into my basement on Thursday and noticed a small hole in the wall. When I went to look at it, I saw that there was something on the floor next to the hole. I thought it was a bug but when I picked it up, I realised that it was a bullet. I went outside and saw that the bullet hit the house and made it through the siding and all the other house material all the way to the basement,” said Ryan Vowles. Vowles said that he had been in the basement on Saturday afternoon, and if the hole had been there at that time he would have seen it. Vowles added that the yard behind the house ends at some swampy and wooded land, which is likely where the bullet came from. “It is pretty alarming to realise that someone fired a rifle towards our house,” he said. “My wife is home a lot now, as she is on ma-
R
ternity leave, and she spends a lot of time playing with the kids in the yard near where the shot must have come from. The kids’ bedrooms are upstairs from the bullet hole as well, so that makes us even more concerned.”
He said that he has contacted both the Frontenac detachment of the OPP and the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry about what happened. Investigators from both have come out to his house and they have launched investigations.

Fees for community use of schools prescribed by province, LDSB says by Jeff Green delegation from the North Frontenac Little Theatre came to Central Frontenac Council last month to complain about the new fees they, and other community groups, must pay to use Granite Ridge Education Centre (GREC). They received a sympathetic response from council. When contacted this week about the matter, the Limestone District School Board (LDSB) has once again pointed out that the fees are based on a cost recovery model that is prescribed by the Ministry of Education. Jane Douglas, Communications Officer with the LDSB, said that the fees charged on school day afternoons and evenings before 10pm, when custodian crews are working whether or not the school is being used by community, are based on the extra cleaning that is required. “There are still extra costs even if the custodian would be there anyway. Rooms need extra cleaning, and there are material costs.

Battersea based career counsellor nominated for award by Jeff Green hristine Fader spent 20 years at Queen’s University as a career counsellor, with a focus on helping students with disabilities. She now runs Career Cupid, which helps people define and achieve their goals, and is the writer of career related books. Her most recent book is ‘Just What The Doctor Ordered’, a detailed primer for students who are seeking to get into medical school. Before she embarked on her career, Christine took disability studies at Loyalist College, graduating in 1994. The Premier’s awards honour Ontario college graduates who have made significant contributions in Ontario and around the world. There are seven categories in the award competition and Christine is nominated in the community services category. “I think I was nominated by Loyalist because my career has demonstrated how the disability studies program can lead to a lot of career opportunities, even if I don’t work directly in developmental services,” she said on Sunday as she was preparing to travel to Toronto for the awards dinner. She said that these awards are important because they bring to light the accomplishments of people who opt for a college education instead of seeking a university education. “I worked in a university setting for 20 years, and while Queen’s is a good place to learn, I came across many students, over the years, who would have been better served by a college education,” she said. “A lot of my colleagues thought I came through university because they had bachelor’s and master’s degrees, but the training I had in disability studies at Loyalist served me well.” Among her accomplishments, she is proud of the work

Correction - In the Central Frontenac Council report on page 3 of last week's paper (vol.19, no.47) the North Frontenac Food Bank is cited as the organizing body for the Christmas Day Dinner in Sharbot Lake, which is not the case. The dinner is put on by an independent committee and the Food Bank provides administrative support but no financial backing
Continued from page 1 It is all based on calculations that were provided to the board by the ministry, it was not a local decision,” she said. Groups that have been using the school for free for years, were informed that the change was coming a year ago, and received notification in June about the actual costs for the current school year. Doug Steele is one of the organisers of Thursday night badminton at GREC. The fee was initially set at $50 a night in June, but the group was able to have the fee lowered to $24 for the use of the gym, because students under 18 play along with the adults. “For now, we are all still paying the same amount each of us paid in the past, $5 per semester,” Steele said. “We have some money in the bank and can use that until it runs out. We will then need to raise fees or fundraise.” There are about 20 badminton enthusiasts paying the fee. The costs to North Frontenac Little Theatre are higher because they rehearse twice a week and more often in the immediate run-up to the productions. The fees are much higher during the weekend

she did over two years, as a community member on the employment standards development committee with the Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services. The committee developed accessibility legislation that was enacted last year and will roll out over the next few years. In her current career path, running a home-based business in South Frontenac, she helps people to enter into their chosen career, as a writer as well as a consultant. While she was flattered by the nomination, Christine did her research and concluded that she was not going to win the award. “I don’t expect to win but it will be a fun evening. Winners of these awards have some very high-profile achievements. They have started not-for-profit corporations and overcome great obstacles.” Her prediction did indeed come true. The winner in the community category this year was Kevin Collins. Collins was a poster child for Easter Seals as a young person with Cerebral Palsy, and is now the President and CEO of the Easter Seals Foundation, a post he was appointed to in 2017 after a career in the hospitality industry. Christine Fader is back in Battersea, living out her dream by helping others accomplish theirs.
OPP REPORT
Stunt driver in Verona
O
n Friday November 29, 2019 short after 11:30 p.m. a Frontenac Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officer was conducting speed enforcement on Road 38 near Verona. The officer stopped a vehicle travelling at 79 kilometers over the speed limit. The driver, a 17 year old from Verona Ontario, was charged with stunt driving which resulted in the licence and vehicle being seized for seven days and the driver was given a summons to appear in Provincial Offences Court in Kingston at a future date to answer to the charge.
of the run, and the entire package had put the future of the company at GREC in doubt. The board had intended to keep community use of GREC free, for community groups, when the school was originally built, according to Jane Douglass. “It was clear from the Program and Accommodation and Review process, that led to the Granite Ridge Education Centre build, that community use was a priority because there are not a lot of other similar facilities in the Sharbot Lake area,” said Douglas, but she added that “there was never any formal written agreement between the board and the township. The board kept to the agreement, and received ministry funding to cover the costs, until the Ministry of Education changed its policy.” Douglas also said that as far as the board is aware, there was no formal commitment made to the township of Central Frontenac in exchange for the township’s decision to waive a portion of the building permit fees when the school was being built. Central Frontenac Mayor Frances Smith said that the township forfeited about $50,000 in fees at the time. Smith was not the mayor at that time, but she was a member of council representing Oso ward, which includes Sharbot Lake.

South Frontenac Council report - December 3 Deputy Mayor for 2020 Councillor Ross Sutherland took the declaration of office as Deputy Mayor for the coming year, and was welcomed by Mayor Vandewal. Johnston Point Delegation Meela Melnik-Proud spoke on behalf of a delegation of residents concerned about the Johnston Point condominium project. Specifically, she addressed the construction of a walking bridge on lot 6, built to connect the main property to an island in order to provide access to the lake. Apparently the structure in question was partially constructed before the CRCA issued a permit for it, and to date, the only available copy of the accompanying benefit permit has been blacked out (redacted) so thoroughly that what remains are mostly a few pronouns and the words “Grey rat snake” and “Blandings turtle”. A benefit permit is the document that details particular actions the applicant must undertake within a specified time, in order to provide an overall benefit to the species that is threatened by their proposed activities. The Endangered Species Act (ESA) states that: “No person shall damage or destroy the habitat of a species that is listed on the Species at Risk in Ontario list as an endangered or threatened species…(However) the Minister may issue a permit to a person under subsection 17(1) of the Act that authorizes the person to engage in an activity that would otherwise be prohibited by the Act.”) Many questions remain: what are the requirements of this particular benefit permit, and who has the authority (the Ministry? The Conservation Authority? The County? The Township?) to ensure that they are met in a timely manner? Where does the OMB decision fit into this puzzle? How does this affect further development on Johnston Point? Deputy Mayor Sutherland brought a notice of motion that council direct staff to contact the township solicitor for clarification on the township’s obligation to approve and enforce the site plan control and condominium agreements. However, CAO Carbone and Director of Development Claire Dodds both advised
SINCE 1970 patience, saying “there are processes underway addressing some of these issues”, and “every day we are getting more information and action on this file.” They are looking at updating the condo agreement, and both recommended it would be premature to seek further legal advice. Carbone said a reasonable timeline would be for Council to revisit the issue “in the first Q” ie, in late February or early March, by which time the issue might be sorted out. Council agreed to defer Sutherland’s motion until they receive their staff’s report. Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve (FABR) Julie Savant director of the FABR presented a summary of the reserve’s activities, reporting that its UNESCO designation had been renewed for the next 10 years. As of 2017, South Frontenac Township and Frontenac Provincial Park are included within its boundaries. The designation does not come with any federal or provincial funding, although the reserve, through grants and donations, contributes substantially to education, tourism, trails and networking in the area. In order to ensure their financial stability, they are seeking to secure support from the municipalities within their boundaries. Mayor Vandewal advised Savant that although the township was positive to the reserve’s work, and had provided a degree of support in the past, the 2020 budget process was in its final stages. Council would consider her request, but he could make no promises, and said it would be much better if next year’s request came in October. 2020 Revised Budget Later in the meeting, when Treasurer Fragnito presented a summary of revisions to the November 7 draft budget, which by taking into account the finalized MPAC assessment and a reduction to the Quinte Conservation levy estimate, has maintained Council’s direction of a 2.0% impact on the average phased-in property. Through Council discussions, the following have been added: $30,000 for a Lake Study Grant program, $7,040 to reinstate

maintenance of non-township facilities as a council grant and the addition of a Winter Festival in the amount of $5,000. Davidson Beach access road was changed from $200,000 to $50,000 and the following projects have been put on hold, pending council approval: branding strategy and implementation, electronic sign, charging station for electric vehicles, ice stock dedicated lanes - pending consideration of multi-use pad and confirmation of fund-raising contribution. Fragnito confirmed there is a modest discretionary amount council could draw on, if they choose to contribute to the biosphere reserve. Garbage and Recycle Collection RFP This RFP will be issued in early 2020, for closure in the fall of 2020. Public works Director Segsworth recommended the following points be included: the RFP will allow contractors to bid on the entire township and/or separate collection areas; collection areas will be revised to 4 day/week pickup; garbage and recycling on the same day for all residents; the basis of payment shall be an amount of dollars per household; the length of contract shall be 5 years plus 2 optional years, to allow for the rollout of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) within
the blue box program on or around 2025; appropriate termination clauses shall be included; the RFP will specify the age of trucks be no more than 10 years; grandfathered lanes will continue service. Mayor Vandewal suggested trucks be assessed by a combination of age and quality/condition. Segsworth said he will be working together with the Public Service Committee to pull together the final RFP document. In another report, Segsworth recommended and received approval of Waste Management’s bid to continue to receive domestic waste and bulky goods from the township (Storrington has no waste site). Currently, the township exports about one third of its waste annually. Private Lane Assistance Council approved $129,264.27 for the private lane upgrading Assistance Program, which has proven increasingly popular every year since its introduction. The 2019 budget for the program was $100,000: the remainder was made up by accessing unused PLA funds from 2018 and leftover money from the 2019 budget for Council grants. Meeting Cancellation The Dec 10 Committee of the Whole meeting has been cancelled.

• Deepest sympathy to Rev. Harry Seeley on the loss of his wife Marion. Many will remember Rev. Seeley and Rev. Gervis Black preaching and conducting revival services in our area a few years back now. Rev. Seeley has preached at Henderson United Church in the past and also helped to put some new shingles on the church in the 1960’s, before the current steel roof was installed. • Also sympathy to Wayne Hare and family in the loss of spouse Jeanette (Parks) Hare of Arden, who died this past week. I used to visit with Jeanette from time to time in Kaladar over coffee, and will miss our visits for sure. Jeanette’s parents the late Lee and Reenie Parks were well known and much loved folks indeed. • Henderson United’s Christmas Eve service starts at 7pm on Dec. 24 and will feature singing, nativity story, and beautifully decorated sanctuary. All welcome.

• What a week that was in Ompah. It started with the Land ‘O Lakes Country Cloggers opening the Birthday Bash on Wednesday. The Cloggers showed off their footwork and some fancy new formations. The tables were groaning with the pot luck dishes and everyone enjoyed the feast. Leane, Paige, Raymond and Reg celebrated their November birthdays by blowing out the candles on the cake. The next Bash will be held on Wed, Dec. 18. • Saturday started with the Cookie Exchange. The hall was a-buzz with conversation and sampling of cookies. The tables were piled with favourites and everyone went home with cookie tins filled to the brim. • The Craft Fair at the school was equally well attended and the gym was filled with lovely Christmas decorations and a great variety of gifts. Needless to say that the Clar-Mill Hall was full of many excited children awaiting Santa. Each child received a special gift and time on Santa’s knee. • The day ended with the annual Christmas Parade. There must have been at least 12 floats - more floats than I can ever remember – all lit up with excited folks aboard. Lots of Christmas music and candies flung to the the viewers along the road. What an amazing day!

he purpose of a will is to allow your assets to be handled the way you wish, lawyer Michelle Foxton told the Seniors And Law Enforcement Together (SALT) gathering last week at Golden Links Hall in Harrowsmith. “If you die intestate (ie no will), it’s not the end of the road, but . . .” she said. Foxton was the featured speaker at the last SALT presentation for this year. The popular series will resume in January with sessions on frauds and scams. “The reason I’m here today is to tell you the benefits of having a will and the downsides of not having a will,” she said. “Lawyers, because they’ve seen so many scenarios can properly advise you but they need your input so that they know where your assets are.” While you can write your own will from a kit or website, it probably won’t do everything you might want it to. “Sometimes, you want to keep assets out of a will to avoid probate,” she said. “Probate is contesting a will in court. “Financial institutions want to know that the executor is the executor and that there isn’t another will floating around somewhere.” And, she said, if one aspect of a will triggers probate, probate tax will be applied to the entire will. She said the executor(s) of your will is entitled to compensation but some

In the case of joint ownership of property or bank accounts, the right of survivorship takes effect, she said. “(But) I really caution people from adding people (such as children) as joint owners because as survivors, it goes to them, shutting out other kids for example. “And if you want to do anything with the property, you need permission of the joint owner.” And, there are special provisions for passing on farm properties so you have to talk to a tax preparer before you go to a lawyer for a will, she said. And, just because you have a small estate,
doesn’t mean you don’t need a will. “Small estates are often the hardest to deal with because there usually isn’t enough money to hire professionals to deal with certain aspects,” she said. Wills deal with your assets after you die. Powers of Attorney govern your affairs while you’re still alive. “Powers of Attorney can allow you to deal with bank accounts without adding joint ownership,” she said. There are actually two types of Power of Attorney — for assets and for care. Foxton encourages clients to discuss these with your lawyer and your doctor. “These are tough decisions but you’d be surprised at how many matters can be resolved,” she said.

embers of Kingston City Council were disappointed last week when Frontenac County Chief Administrative Officer Kelly Pender did not show up to brief them on how much the city will be charged for the delivery of land ambulance service and Fairmount Home in 2020. Both services are operated by Frontenac County, with funding support from the Province of Ontario, City of Kingston ratepayers and Frontenac County ratepayers. At a budget meeting on November 26, city council member Wayne Hill is quoted in the Whig Standard article as saying “I don’t understand why they are not here tonight. It seems to me they don’t want to answer these questions in front of Council. It leaves us really blind.” When contacted this week from his office at Frontenac County headquarters in Glenburnie, Pender said the real question in the matter is not whether he attended or not, but why his name was on the agenda in the first place. “When we met with the mayor and other city officials at RULAC [Rural Urban Liaison Committee] on October 30th, I told them that I could give them a number for each of the services in 2020, but it would almost certainly be wrong. We won’t know until we find out how much the province is paying into those budgets next year, and we don’t know when they are going to tell us.” Pender said that, even after informing the city that the budget numbers are not available, in early November he received an invitation to the November 26 city budget meeting. “I informed them that I would not be attending the November 26 meeting, for reasons that I made clear to them once again. Apparently my name was not removed from the agenda and Council still expected someone to be there from Frontenac County.” When Frontenac County Council met in October to work on their own 2020 budget, the amount paid by the province in 2019 to sup-

port Frontenac Paramedic Services (land ambulance) and Fairmount Home was plugged into the budget. Pender told his council the same thing he told City of Kingston officials, that the number was certainly wrong for 2020. Pender said this week that he does not expect to have final numbers in time for the Frontenac County Council meeting on December 18, and Frontenac County will likely go into 2020 without an approved budget. “The provincial numbers may not be available until provincial budget time in March,” Pender said over the phone on Tuesday (December 3). “At some point we will need to approve our budget in order to set a tax rate for our member municipalities to plug in to their tax bills. But it won’t be on December 18.” He added that once the province tells Frontenac County how much they will be contributing for 2020, he will bring that information to Frontenac County Council. Once Frontenac County Council finalises the budgets for Frontenac Paramedic Services and Fairmount Home, that information will be provided to the City of Kingston. The City of Kingston has requested that all third-party agencies that they fund, keep any increases to 2.5%, the same request that they made in 2019. In 2019, the bill to Kingston for Frontenac Paramedic Services was up by 7.7% over 2018 and the bill for Fairmount Home was up by 5.2%. City staff managed to find money in reserves to cover most of the increase, which was not accounted for in the 2019 Kingston budget, but at a Kingston City Council meeting in September, the decision was taken to withhold the last $200,000 from amount levied to the city by Frontenac County for the services. Frontenac County has not backed down, and the matter of the $200,000 payment is now the subject of mediation

previous weekend. As the two friends put their heads together, a plan evolved for a bake/book sale for charity. The charity, Operation Christmas Child, Samaritan’s Purse, packs items such as pens, paper, markers, pencils, erasers, toothbrushes, soap, clothes, a ball, a little stuffed animal etc. nnd puts them is shoeboxes to send to underpriviledged children in other countries. The boxes are normally filled in early November, to be shipped in time for Christmas. Shipping costs $10 per shoebox. Filling one shoebox can easily exceed $15, even if shopping at the dollar store. By starting in July for christmes the girls would be able to send more than one shoebox! The girls’ grtandmothers and mothers jumped opn board to support the girls, and soon posters wre hung to announce the upcoming fundraiser. Before they could reach their car in the parking lot of the Foodland, someone had responded with a $20 bill. What an encouraging beginning for the girls. The next day they baked, and it was 30 degrees outside! The following afternoon the girls set up. One of the girls donated her own books!. They waved people over and when the stopped, no one left without a plate of goodies. People always overpaid when they found out the girls were fundraising.
by Anja Cameron
A third friend joined them for a while and it became a victory dance when anyone responded to their beckoning to stop. Cheers could be heard, Thank Yous shouted with excited smiles, When the total was counted... it came to $251.45! A beautiful effort from two selfless girls, such a marvelous response from the Flinton, Northbrook & Cloyne communities. A repeat fundraiser was held on Aug. 29 at the Curiousity Shop in Northbrook, graciously agreed to by owner Karen Anderson, so we could be in the heart of Northbrook. The team grew with another girl and boy. They waved in an additional $372, bringing the total to $623.45. Can you imagine the shopping spree in the Dollar store? No, you can’t. Even the cashier wore a nuge smile upon hearing the fundraiser story. Packing the boxes was another event!in total they packed 23 shoeboxes. The question arose if there would be enough shipping money for all... an astounding $235.50 was available! $5.50 left over! Since all this happened, a dentiset, upon hearing of this ‘teams’ outreach, donated 100 toothbrushes, while money continues to come in to fill more shoeboxes.

It allows us to have things kids can buy for their parents for Christmas. “Yeah, we’re a community store and the cheapest ever.” She said that as a nonprofit, everything they make goes back to the community — Christmas for Kids, South Frontenac Community Services, the Food Bank. “We’ve filled up every little spot the Township’s allowed us to use,” she said. “Just think about how much we recycle and how much we’ve kept out of the landfill.”
One thing was for sure, there were all sorts of clothes, games, toys, household items and youname-its packed all over the Princess Anne Centre Sunday keeping Wood, Kasserra, Cindy Gordon Judy Martin, Karen White, Kerri Valiquette, Cheryl Kellar and Marilyn Clow hopping to look after everybody.

DRIVE SLOW IN THE SNOW • BE NICE ON THE ICE: Give yourself twice the space between vehicles and pedestrians. Stopping distance on ice is double that of a dry road • GO SLOW IN THE SNOW: Slow down and drive according to weather conditions, not the speed limit • IT’S NOT A RACE, GIVE PLOW SPACE: Snow plows are extra wide and can create clouds of snow – both of which reduce visibility and increase the risk of collision. It’s best to wait for the plow to pull over before you pass.

Hallways full as holiday market returns to Prince Charles PS by Craig Bakay t’s been steady,” Parents Council chair and 14th annual holiday market organizer Ali Williams said Saturday morning as Prince Charles Public School was full of holiday shoppers, vendors and people making merry. “It’ll probably pick up once the (Sydenham) Santa Claus Parade is over.” It did pick up indeed. For the past seven years, the school and the Frontenac Farmers Market have combined to put on the annual sale. For the school, it represents a major fundraiser. “We’ve raised money for sports equipment, bike desks for kids who have high energy so they can bike while doing their school work, school trips, culinary class, wood working and musical gear,” Williams said. “It all comes back to the school.” Williams said she has a lot of help putting this on but Tab Morton said it’s mostly Williams. “Ali is the vast majority of this,” Morton said. “We play a very small support role. “She’s the main driver.”

South Frontenac Bolsters Its Fire Service - Welcomes 24 new Fire Fighters S outh Frontenac Fire & Rescue Station 6 welcomed a full house last Wednesday night at the 2019 Volunteer Fire Fighter Recruit Graduation Ceremony. Dozens of fire personnel, Councillors, staff, and family members gathered to celebrate the achievements of 24 new firefighters that can now respond to fires and emergencies in South Frontenac after having completed 6 months of extensive training. Mayor Ron Vandewal addressed the graduating class with his well wishes for their future careers and thanked their families for their continuous support at home. “I also want to thank Council for their ongoing support of the fire service and the steps that have been taken to position South Frontenac Fire & Rescue to continue providing exemplary service to our growing municipality. I am grateful for each and every member of SFFR for dedicating their lives to protection of life and property in South Frontenac,” said Mayor Vandewal. The recruitment of a significant number of new volunteer fire fighters is part of Fire Chief Darcy Knott’s multi-year plan to bolster and modernize SFFR to ensure it can continue to provide excellent service to a region that is experiencing significant growth pressure. “The men and women sitting before you are the cream of the crop, “noted Director of Fire & Emergency Services
Darcy Knott. “They have received the same level of training as a fulltime fire fighter in any city across North America, and now hold certifications that are internationally recognized.” Chief Knott explained that this year’s recruitment campaign was one of the most involved and most successful in South Frontenac’s history, ensuring that our eight stations spread out across the township remain equipped for any emergency that faces the residents of South Frontenac. “I am continually amazed by the dedication, commitment, and professionalism of the volunteer firefighters of South Frontenac Fire and Rescue,” added Chief Knott. “This graduating group of new firefighters share those same qualities and have already exhibited great comradery throughout this process. I congratulate them on this achievement and welcome them to the SFFR family!” About South Frontenac Fire & Rescue: SFFR is a hybrid force with 110 volunteer fire fighters. With 8 fire stations located throughout the township, and 36 apparatus, SFFR volunteer fire fighters help to protect 18,646 residents and over 941 sq. km. of beautiful landscape. These individuals spend their time responding to calls relating to fires, medical emergencies, and various other situations that require their assistance.

“She’s lying,” said Williams. Well, there were a lot of teachers, parents and such that seemed to be busy. Heck, they even had two Santa Claus’s even though both of them tried to convince the reporter they were actually the same person in two different places at once. The annual event is usually the first full weekend in December, but they decided to try it a weekend earlier this year to avoid conflicts with other events. “But it seems no matter when we have it, there’s something else going on,” Williams said. “But it is nice having the partnership with the Frontenac Farmers Market.” David Bates, the self-admitted “Poobah” of the market at the moment, agreed. “There’s parking way up the streets,” he said. “We’re hearing from some of our cornerstone vendors that we’re setting records.” He said the holiday market bodes well for the future of the Frontenac Farmers Market and they may be looking at moving to McMullen Park for next season.
