Keep counties together in electoral boundaries, says MP Reid By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News — Just how the final federal and provincial election boundaries will play out remains to be seen, but however they do “they will be highly relevant as to how we structure services,” Lanark, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington MP Scott Reid told Frontenac County Council at its regular meeting last week in Glenburnie. “For example, how much of Kingston is included will have an impact,” he said. “Will it be Kingston north of the 401? No rural Kingston?” Reid said he’s met with the Mayor of Frontenac Islands (Denis Doyle) who told him when asked if he wanted to be part of the riding ‘no, I think we feel a stronger link to Kingston and the

Islands.” Reid said the Boundaries Commission seems to follow two distinct and incompatible philosophies for the riding boundaries in the part of rural Eastern Ontario lying between Peterborough and Cornwall. “The first philosophy is to treat the boundaries of counties as the primary indicator of community of interest,” he said. “This philosophy is followed with respect to the counties of GlengarryPrescott-Russell, Stormont-Dundas, Leeds-Grenville, Lanark and Renfrew.” The second approach, which is adopted in the area between Kingston and Peterborough, is to largely ignore county boundaries. “Quoting the Commission’s own words, Reid said “this Commission de-

Some good, mostly bad reviews of County Official Plan in South Frontenac By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A report to South Frontenac Council by planner Lindsay Mills on Frontenac Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s province-mandated Official Plan (first draft) offers one page of praise and three pages of concerns. The report was presented at South Frontenacâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regular Council meeting last week in Sydenham. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The draft plan is well laid out with eight sections that are categorized according to their subject area,â&#x20AC;? Millsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; report said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each section and subsection includes an introduction that explains the intent of each policy that follows from it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These introductions/preambles seem to be well thought out and are understandable and supportable (and) the introduction section is especially helpful and informative by offering a history and population breakdown of the subject area.â&#x20AC;? Mills also went on to praise the six sustainability themes of the document and said â&#x20AC;&#x153;the author of the document, Joe Gallivan, should be commended for his work on the plan.â&#x20AC;? But that was it for the good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An introductory note contained at the beginning of the document explains that it is intended to be a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;high-levelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; regional plan to deal

with planning issues that cross political jurisdictions, unlike Township Official Plans which are detailed and which focus on growth,â&#x20AC;? Mills said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It later states that is is not intended to interfere with those planning matters considered to be the responsibility of the local municipalities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However in reality, under its present wording, the document is exactly the opposite.â&#x20AC;? Mills said the document is far too detailed for an upper tier plan, has potentially limiting provisions for agricultural operations, contains the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;shall,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;will,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;permittedâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;suggests that the County will be involved in every aspect of any planning approval.â&#x20AC;? He was also concerned that the section dealing with heritage and culture, which includes provisions for archaeological studies in water bodies â&#x20AC;&#x153;has huge negative implications for the future development in the Townships.â&#x20AC;? And, Section 8.7 of the plan specifies that the County may pass development charges bylaws and â&#x20AC;&#x153;this implies that the County intends to establish an additional level of charges to any development proposed in the Townships.â&#x20AC;? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also like to see some â&#x20AC;&#x153;clarificationâ&#x20AC;? of how the text relates to included maps.

He said much of what was in- a word in there,â&#x20AC;? said Mayor Gary County not move forward until a cluded, particularly farm uses, â&#x20AC;&#x153;is Davison. second draft is prepared. zoning bylaw stuff (and) I think Council passed a motion to send South Frontenac will also be is a very inappropriate intrusion a letter to the County outlining its sending the motion to the other three into our authority and what we do concerns and with a request the townships asking for their support. here.â&#x20AC;? Council seemed to agree with everything Mills said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think OP BQQPJOUNFOU SFRVJSFE QSJOUFE XIJMF ZPV XBJU County Council is too far removed from the people and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thinking â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;what is wrong with your heads,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said Coun.

Meet your market vendor: GWIL Seafood By Kelly Reid Reporter

Marketing plans Events – Peigi Wilson shows the drums and leathers of Valerie Hermer and the spirit dolls of Rose Moses at the Sharbot Lake Farmers Market last week. Wilson wants to hear from other Algonquin artisans and craftspeople who might be interested in setting up some sort of co-operative. “It’s very much just in the developmental stage right now but I’d love for people who might be interested to drop by the market so we can talk about it,” she said. The market runs Saturday mornings at the beach in Sharbot Lake until Thanksgiving. Photo/Craig Bakay

Gazette Business - Tucked away in the 50s row of the Kingston Public Market, you’ll find John Paulette and his seafood stand on all three market days. Paulette runs GWIL Seafood, which sells a variety of fresh and sustainable seafood. “We’ve been here just for this season,” Paulette says of how long he’s been selling in the market. “Their first day was May 1 of this year. The company has been in business 35 years, though.” GWIL Seafood is under the umbrella of Club Claw, which is a wholesale seafood vendor. “I wanted to introduce fresh fish and fresh seafood to the market,” says Paulette of what got him started. “They’re getting top quality product.” Paulette sells salmon, shrimp, lobster, cod, Dover sole, and scallops, along with a host of other sea creatures. His most popular sellers are his large sea scallops, but he also says, “Our salmon can’t be matched!” Paulette sources from across Canada as well as around the world. He says that they buy Canadian products whenever they can. “Our lobster is from Nova Scotia, our salmon is from New Brunswick and Iceland. We also have wild pacific salmon from B.C.,” he says. “Everything that we sell comes in fresh.”

GWIL Seafood is committed to sustainability as well as to freshness and quality. “We only deal with sustainable farmers,” Paulette goes on. “We adhere to everything allnatural. We’re trying to promote a lifestyle of health and wellbeing.” Paulette believes that fish and seafood are an integral part of any diet, especially for the aging baby boomer population. “You won’t find omegas in anything like you do in seafood,” he says. He goes on to say that many studies have found links between increased Omega-3 and improved memory and cognitive abilities. “They’re going to get those oils that they’re lacking,” Paulette says of seafood consumers. As a new vendor in the market, Paulette is happy to see repeat business beginning among his customers. He has also started supplying some of the local restaurants. “We do a lot of restaurants in Ottawa and Montreal,” he says. “We’re starting to pick up in this area.” In addition to selling their product in the market, GWIL seafood also has an online service that allows fresh seafood to be delivered to someone’s doorstep. “A lot of the customers that we’ve established we’ve also established a delivery service with,” Paulette is proud to say. You can visit GWIL Seafood in the Kingston Public Market on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. To sign up for doorstep delivery, visit www.clubclaw.com.

Gazette News - Local farmer Dave Perry has been showing cattle at the Kingston Fall Fair since he was 12 years old. Now his own children, including Justin, 23, Kaitlyn, 11, Grant, 10 and Mason, 7, join him in the ring each year, proudly showing the cattle and pigs they have raised themselves. The 2013 fair was the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best ever, with the Perrys bringing in a total of eight banners for their black Maine-Anjou cattle. Among the prize animals: a 2,400 pound bull named Glacier, shown by Dave, which took Grand Champion Bull, and an eightmonth-old calf, shown by Kaitlyn, which took a number of awards including Grand Champion â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a prize that recognizes the best out of all animals in the 4H association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was pretty special to see her win,â&#x20AC;? Perry says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if she realizes yet that you might go through all your years of 4H and never do that again. It just depends on your animal and the other animals youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re competing against.â&#x20AC;? It feels great, he notes, to have been so successful. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It makes it feel worthwhile. You put a lot of effort into it and a lot of expense too, feeding the animals and getting them up to show condition.â&#x20AC;? The first step is to halter-break cattle at a young age, which means getting them used to having a halter on by tying them up to something secure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you just put a halter on it and take it in your hands, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to drag you around and probably get away,â&#x20AC;? Perry explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So you try to let it get used to that a few times, and then maybe two or three days later you untie it and just move it a little bit - six or eight feet - and if it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to get away go a little further [etc.].â&#x20AC;? What an animal is given to eat is another important factor. Perry rec

ommends feeding cattle a mixture of corn, barley, good quality oats and grass or hay, depending on the Oct: 10-14 , 11-14, 17-20 time of year. Nov: 14-17, 15-17, 21-24, â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have to have proper feed Nov 28 - Dec 1 to be filled out 1HZ (QJODQG )R[ZRRGV %RVWRQ 2FW properly,â&#x20AC;?

have to be washed and cleaned up.â&#x20AC;? While he coaches his children regarding how to raise their animals, they do most of the work when it comes to caring for the cattle and swine and preparing them for the fair. Such tasks, Perry notes, are great for kids to get involved with: â&#x20AC;&#x153;They learn how to care for an animal. They learn work skills and scheduling. And it keeps them busy, which keeps them from getting into trouble.â&#x20AC;? Indeed, he remarks that participating in 4H activities did wonders for his niece, Shelby, who came to stay at the Perrysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; farm in Harrowsmith for the summer after getting into some Internet-related trouble at home in Fredericton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told them if sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming up sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leaving her phone at home,â&#x20AC;? Perry says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think she could live without it, but she did great. She showed cattle at three fairs while she was here. She unloaded straw, square bails, put them on the elevator, and she worked in our store [Local Family Farms in Verona] two days a week. Oh, she was just a great help.â&#x20AC;? And the feeling was mutual. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She just sent us a letter last week saying it changed her life,â&#x20AC;? Perry says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a good experience for her.â&#x20AC;? From a farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perspective, he remarks that the livestock shows are also an excellent way to exchange ideas and demonstrate to others what has worked in the past. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any beef animal can be used for beef, but they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all have the same genetics or confirmation,â&#x20AC;? Perry says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just taking pride in your animals and showing people what you have and what they could have.â&#x20AC;? To inquire about or purchase their beef, pork or turkey, contact Perry Maine-Anjou farms at 613-374-3663.

Last weeks of Summer Offered Much Activity in Frontenac Islands By Margaret Knott Correspondent

EMC News- A trip away, through a part of Canada I had never seen, opened my eyes to the size of our country. . Travelling from Edmonton to Whitehorse and onto Dawson City, where populations are not measured according to persons per square mile but by how many square miles of land there are per person. That’s the Yukon. Where tourism is as important to the economy as it is to us here on Wolfe Island, and where there is much concerted effort and activity to create welcoming communities that tell the stories, the why and how they came to be. Much to our surprise many of even the smallest of communities had a facility of some sort or another for seniors, had water and even in some areas, sewage, encourage cycling as well as recycling, and are conscious of protecting the environment. I was overwhelmed by the bigness and the beauty on our travel. In our absence however events of interest were missed. Here’s a bit of a catch up.

Day, when many of Wolfe Island’s cottagers leave the island for another year. The annual social, again organized by Leslie, provided the opportunity for the parish family to get together one more time. 2. The Wolfe Island Historical Society held their annual AGM with more than 50 people attending, according to Treasurer Brian MacDonald. “The same four people, Denis Cherquitte, Judy Greenwood–Speers, Brian Johnson and John O’Shea were returned in the same four spots. Hank (Hendry)Connell is President, VP Mike Bromley, Secretary Judy Speers,” he said. A highlight of the evening was the continuation of “Ferry Tales” with Captain Brian Johnson, who with his wealth of information and easy style, always draws a crowd eager to hear the stories of days gone by on the waters of Lake Ontario and the mighty St Lawrence River. (Captain Johnson was a recent guest speaker at the Ontario Genealogical Society Kingston Branch). “Ferry Tales” is the title of his book.

3. And then there was the WI Ploughing Match held at the Henry Posthumus-Janine Handforth Farm, where 33 persons participated along with 6 celebrity ploughmen including Frontenac Islands Mayor Denis Doyle, Suzuki 750 KingQuad Auto Abby Angheles- Fuel Injected cu, Councillor - Power Steering Barbara Spring- 4x4 Diff.

4. In conversation with Mayor Doyle, I heard that the Frontenac County Official Plan meeting on Howe was well attended providing great feed back for County Planner Joe Gallivan. He added that the September Council meeting on WI included an Open House on the proposed Community Improvement Plan (CIP) brought out about 50 persons, moving it to the Community Hall where he noted acoustics are a problem. Frontenac County’s Peter Young and Anne Marie Young presented the program and received the feedback. According to Mayor Doyle, $70,000 has been allocated out of the Federal Gas Tax funds received by the County to assist in Village of Marysville improvements. “Several village business owners and residents were present for the discussion, which was all positive,” he said adding that two Bylaws were presented. “ The first, which passed, defines the area covered by the CIP from the water front on the north, to the Community Centre grounds on the south, 7th line on the east, to the end of Hillcrest Street on the west. The second, that the council enact the CIP for the redevelopment, and beautification, etc. of Marysville, and received first and second reading allowing time for further public review and comment before the final reading at the October 15th

Council meeting,” he said. The CIP can be viewed in detail at the WI Town Hall. 5. Many in attendance had come to support Island Grill owner Casey Fisher’s request for on going exemptions to the recently passed ‘Noise Bylaw’ to allow for music as part of the business and its sustainability (out door live and indoor live (closed doors) at specific hours (days and evenings) dependant upon availability of musicians. At the same time, according to Mayor Doyle, Marysville resident Key Keyes was there as spokesperson for village residents who had collected over 50 signatures to express concerns about changes to the by-law without some restrictions. “Both parties had people out to support their position a good open debate took place,” Doyle said. “It was generally agreed that our approach should be to specify the level of decibels (db) that could be allowed at various times of the day in our by-law. Staff will meet with our By-law Enforcement Officer to investigate what db levels are typically used in other jurisdictions, and in other by-laws he is familiar with. It was also agreed that when the proposed changes were received that a meeting would be held with Casey Fisher and Mr. Keyes to discuss the acceptability.” 6. Doyle added that a back of the

village east side (Plan 65)lot owner Christi Hayhoe attended the meeting to discuss how a road could be put in to allow access to her lot, get a building permit and build. “We agreed t get a cost estimate for a road and to organize a meeting with all parties including the Plan 65 major property owner.” 7. According to the Mayor, Wednesday October 30, 2013 has been declared “Child Care Worker and Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day”. “The discussion leading up to the resolution recognized that Child Care Workers are very important to the islands. Without this service a lot of people would have to take their children to the city, using up spaces on the ferry during busy commuter ferry trips.” Finally Mayor Doyle noted that the rink project is moving along but the awarding of major contracts is still pending. Council meets next Oct. 15th Howe Island, 6:30 pm Around Town: * Thurs. Sept. 26th the St. Lawrence Women’s Institute will present the 1995-2012 Tweedsmuir Books at a reception from 6-8 pm at WI Public Library honouring late Institute member Mrs. Connie Woodman. * Apple Fest Bruce &Peggy Horne’s Orchard Sat.

Gazette News — Frontenac County warden Janet Gutowski announced that she’ll be stepping down as warden in December after two years in the chair. The warden broke with tradition last December by announcing she would be remaining in the position. In all previous incarnations of Frontenac County Council and its predecessor, the Frontenac Management Board, the warden has held a one-year term, stepping down each December to allow another member to fill the role. However, two years ago, after Coun. Gary Davison relinquished the chair in favour of Gutowski, Coun. Bud Clayton called for an election for Warden, which Gutowski won. That seemed to create friction in Council and when it became time for Gutowski to step down in favour of Coun. Denis Doyle, she didn’t. There was nothing in the procedural

bylaw or any other legal document requiring her to do so. This led to several conflicts within Council, one of which has resulted in Gutowski launching a lawsuit against Coun. Doyle, Clayton, David Jones and John McDougall for comments and a motion that Gutowski claims damaged her reputation enough to hamper her chances at reelection as Mayor of Central Frontenac Township and/or find other suitable employment. However, during discussion on a motion by Doyle calling for Council’s permission for any councilor or County employee to meet with a federal or provincial minister, Gutowsk made her announcement. “When I see motions like this, it makes me think ‘and people wonder why I haven’t stepped down,’” Gutowski said. Davison tried to interrupt on a point of order, contending that Gutowski was simply making a speech, but she ruled him out of order and continued on. “I am intending on resigning as War-

den at the end of December — which I intended to do at the outset,” she said. “I’m finding all the travel involved and being the head of two councils . . .” Davison again interrupted saying “what does this have to do with the motion on the floor? “You’re talking about a personal political career.” But Gutowski seemed to ignore it, calling for a vote on Doyle’s motion, which was defeated 5-4. After the meeting, when asked if she was considering requesting County funds in pursuit of her lawsuit, Gutowski said: “I’ve given that much thought and concluded it wouldn’t be appropriate.” CAO/Clerk Liz Savill confirmed that, like most municipalities, Frontenac County does have insurance that is intended to cover Council members’ legal fees should that be required. None of the four councilors Gutowski is suing, Doyle, Clayton, Jones or McDougall, has said if they intend to apply to access those funds.

In Our Opinion

Party in-fighting a recipe for political irrelevance

Whoever backs down first probably wins this political dustup Craig Bakay Reporter

editorial@theheritageemc.ca

EMC Editorial - Just when we thought it might be safe to go to a County Council meeting . . . Coun. David Jones was served with the papers informing him that he was being sued by Warden Janet Gutowski at last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Frontenac County Council meeting in Glenburnie and he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a happy camper. In fact, he and Coun. Denis Doyle, who is also named as a defendant (along with Coun. John McDougall and Bud Clayton), packed up as the closing bylaw was being read and quickly left the august chambers. For those who are interested (and who isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t interested when politicians sue each other?), Gutowskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suit is claiming $1,000,000 in damages, court costs and taxes, lawyers fees, a full retraction and an apology as a result of a motion and statements by Jones at the May 15, 2013 Frontenac County Council meeting

claiming that Gutowski violated her oath of office, peddled political favours and conspired with staff to move County councilors to vote in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;biased, corrupt or in any other improper manner.â&#x20AC;? The suit also mentions Jones saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;what other tricks has she been up to?â&#x20AC;? and that the defendants conducted media interviews following the meeting wherein they reiterated the defamatory words set out in the motion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Defendants knew, at the time the defamatory words were spoken, that the words were untrue,â&#x20AC;? the statement of claim says â&#x20AC;&#x153;The defendants spoke the defamatory words (or acknowledged and repeated them) to further their own political agenda, specifically to force the plaintiff to resign her position as Warden of the County of Frontenac, so that one of them could assume that role. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The defendants acted in bad faith, with malice aforethought. The defendants are not entitled to claim qualified privilege in all of the circumstances. The defendants were not acting in furtherance of their duties as public officials. Rather, they acted in furtherance of their own self interests.â&#x20AC;?

Whew, eh? Well, it will be up to a judge to decide if all that actually falls within the laws of Canada and Ontario. But if this actually gets in front of a judge, there will be many losers. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re called the residents of Frontenac County. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely it will cost the residents some real money, because the defendants probably have access to insurance funds that would pay for their legal counsel. And if car insurance claims are any indication, whenever you make a claim on your insurance policy, your policy gets more expensive when you go to remove it. However, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite likely this could all go away if Jones, Doyle, Clayton and McDougall (who really didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say much more than â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ayeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; when the vote was called) were to recant their statements and apologize.

8 The Frontenac EMC - Thursday, September 26, 2013

Heritage Editorial - If an organization is trying to create an impression of stability, integrity and competence in the hearts and minds of the general public â&#x20AC;&#x201C; overt displays of petulance, disunity and discord tend not to go over too well. If this scenario is happening within the construct of a political party attempting to win popular support and votes from an increasingly fickle and disenchanted electorate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s political self-immolation. Such is the lot for the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party and its duly-elected leader Tim Hudak. For a few months now, internal rumblings of discontent have bubbled over into overt words and action, with party officials, party members and even elected PC MPPs battling over Hudakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leadership in a rather shameless and certainly unhelpful manner. A party activist from Ottawa named Debbie Jodoin launched a social media campaign to try and undermine the folks she believes are undermining Hudak, and was hoping to raise enough support to cause some real problems for anti-Hudak forces at the partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy convention held last week in London. A couple of weeks back, maverick Progressive Conservative MPP for LanarkFrontenac-Lennox & Addington Randy Hillier â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the MPP that represents part of our coverage area â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;demotedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by being stripped of his duties as the Official Opposition Critic for Labour. Ostensibly, it was because he broke caucus confidentiality after circulating an email critical of a labour-related PC private-members bill that was supported by Hudak. But it really was a case of Hudak reaching his breaking point with an MPP who seemed to be actively working to unseat him from the big chair. Hillier ran against Hudak for the party leadership in 2009, but finished a distant fourth. So perhaps his grapes are still sour. But regardless of the motivations and machinations of the folks involved, and whether these activities are going on in private or in public, under the watchful eye of the media, the result is the same â&#x20AC;&#x201C; bad press, bad optics and a bad brand. No matter how solid, cogent and appropriate the Progressive Conservative Partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policies may be, if they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have all the oars rowing in the same direction, their political ship is going to crash upon the rocky shoals of the next provincial election. And that election could come at any time, depending on how well Liberal premier Kathleen Wynne and NDP leader Andrea Horwath are getting along. If a major political party cannot run its own operations, why should voters in Ontario trust that they can run something as complex as the biggest, wealthiest, most demanding province in Confederation? The answer is they shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, and most likely wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. Ask federal Liberals how their public leadership spats and soap operas have worked for them over the past decade? If the Tories want to unseat an incredibly vulnerable provincial Liberal administration, they need to quickly, decisively and authentically get their leadership house in order, and get everyone on the same page â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at least for public consumption. The alternative is many more years in the political wilderness.

ENCHANTÉ

Enchanting and fascinating people….and their world

Mark Bergin

Nurturing the art of dance Heritage Lifestyle - Ebon Gage, the Artistic Director of the Kingston School of Dance (KSD), is always looking for innovative ways to teach and find expression through dance. Since starting this column in 2011, I’ve never focused on the same person twice. This week, I’ll break that trend. My first column on February 17, 2011 featured Ebon Gage.

It’s time to take another look at this passionate dance teacher and artistic director. You’ll have an opportunity to experience his work during Culture Days this weekend. He’s always in sync with his students, yet at the same time one dancestep ahead. “I want to actually get the dancers to go in different areas and think about how can I create theatre without being on a stage,” he said. “We don’t need many props. We need to use our own imaginations and creativity. Imagine juxtaposing something like tai chi with dance art?” Gage strongly supports Culture Days and has been involved since its inception. The concept started in Quebec in 1997 with Journées de la culture weekend. In 2007, The Canadian Arts Summit launched a feasibility study

to assess the possibility of supporting an annual cross-country celebration of arts and culture. By 2008, a collaboration with Culture pour tous, producer of Journées de la culture, developed to facilitate a similar strategy for events across Canada. The Canadian Council for the Arts and The Banff Centre in Alberta came on board as key participants. Culture Days is now held annually in cities throughout Canada. There’s lots going on in Kingston and Ebon Gage is thrilled that it’s become a popular event. He opens the doors of the Kingston School of Dance for the full three dates of Culture Days, held this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. On Friday night from 8:30 to 9:30 anyone can drop into the Kingston School of Dance for a free class in Salsa. “Last year we even had families bring their little ones,” said Ebon. “We had a whole culture mix and lots of support from the Latino community. People can just walk in the door and I start teaching them.” On Saturday, it’s a multimedia day. People can view dance classes in progress. Artists are invited to bring in their sketch books from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. They can bring watercolors, pastels, pens, whatever they need. The dance school will provide chairs, artists bring their own easels

been teaching for ten years has graduated from the school,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m seeing a whole new set of senior students moving through the ranks. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really nice to see these dancers come up and contribute to what takes place in the school. We really have some very talented dancers right now. Some of them can be triple threats (dance, sing, act). Some are going to be brilliant choreographers because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really focused. I see a much more focused group of teenagers than Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen in the past.â&#x20AC;? He explained that his current senior

dancers are willing to expose themselves to more art forms, especially to skills like vocals and theatre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not afraid to take chances in other dance forms or arts,â&#x20AC;? said Gage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are still a ballet school first, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m seeing our contemporary becoming very strong because of the classical background. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really nice to have major dance companies coming through Kingston and the Grand Theatre and have workshops for our dancers to participate with these professionals.â&#x20AC;? He said the move back to the Tett Centre

will increase professional opportunities for dancers at the Kingston School of Dance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be an opportunity for younger dancers and people coming in and giving a voice to whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening in the rest of the world, the evolution thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taking place in dance. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to lead the school and its next generation of dancers and dance caregivers. I want to constantly bring in new ideas to the school so it can grow.â&#x20AC;? Keep your eyes on this artistic director and the Kingston School of Dance. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the future weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking at.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Participants have to sign up for the race, and one of the stops will be the Kingston School of Dance,â&#x20AC;? said Gage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will teach them a line dance. Before they go to the next event, they have to do a series of line dances before I give them their next clue.â&#x20AC;? On Sunday, Sept. 30, KSD will host live animation in the dance studio from 10 a.m.â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll bring people in with my dancers to animate them and create dance from different subjects and ideas,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be more of an improv event. At the same time, dancers who have been rehearsing then filming a piece created by Belgiumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rosas Danst Rosasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker and choreographed by Helena Marx, will perform. People can see this on Sunday. The dancers have really gone through a lot of hard work to get it together. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s based on phrases of choreography that can be used anywhere in the world.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an important transitional time for the Kingston School of Dance and Ebon Gage realizes the opportunities arising. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re preparing for a move back to the Tett Centre in September 2014,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great year for us to reach out to other arts community members to find ways of collaborating and inspiring others to get more involved.â&#x20AC;? Gage said after years of work he feels like heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got the base of a solid dance company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really on the right track,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve now got students who go to New York for dance classes and they come back and say they were well prepared for the New York scene.â&#x20AC;? He said his next goal is to get his students involved with the National Ballet of Canada so their training can rival the national level. For several years, KSD has had at least one National Ballet of Canada ballerina teaching classes at the school. No trophies line the walls of The Kingston School of Dance. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the rare schools that focus on art and passion instead of worrying about competition judgesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; scores. When dance becomes a sport, the art suffers. Sometimes badly, grotesquely. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my observation, not Ebonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s words. Dancers at KSD are training for a career in dance or theatre, or simply for the thrill of the experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping that down the road, as we develop opportunities for dancers, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to make a livelihood here,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to leave Kingston. As Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotten older, I think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve become more nurturing with students. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about being the teacher, the guide, the person who gives encouragement in class. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really about creating opportunities. If I can give them guidance and direct them to use their best attributes, whether it be in modern, contemporary or ballet, then Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done my job as an artistic director.â&#x20AC;?

Dance, explained Ebon, is about freedom of expression. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I see the joy on kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; faces,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They move without inhibition. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not about coloring within the lines. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a freedom in a childlike mentality. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going with their own innate abilities. And theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going beyond where they thought their boundaries and skills reached.â&#x20AC;? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in his tenth year with the school, which means heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seeing a whole new generation of dancers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the year that every child Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve

Scratch proved her worth as a house cat Mary Cook

Columnist

editorial@theheritageemc.ca

Lifestyle - As far as Mother was concerned, there were no “ifs, ands, or buts” about it when it came to having pets in the house. They belonged in the barn, and that’s all there was to it. The barn cats had litters; it seemed to me back then, every time the weather changed. And every time a new batch of kittens came on the

scene, I begged Mother to let me keep at least one in the house for a pet. I promised I would look after it. It would never wander through the rooms, and I would feed it myself, so there would be no spots on the kitchen floor, which Mother kept as clean as a whistle. “No cats in the house,” she would say again! So I would have to play with them in the barns, where they were allowed to wander freely, some in the cow byre, some in the stable, and often one or two in where Father kept the sheep. I would make sure they all had fresh milk every day, and of

course, I gave them all names. My brother Emerson said giving barn cats names was just about the craziest idea he ever heard of... especially when there were so many. I paid him no heed! They came in all colours, but mostly they were grey or black with white spots. And then one batch produced one that was golden brown with white around its neck, and a pure white tail. Emerson said it looked like its mother had been scared by a fox, whatever that meant. To me it was the most beautiful kitten I had ever seen, but it didn’t look like its mother had much love for it. To me it always seemed to be pushed aside,

and away from the other kittens. And it got thinner and thinner. Emerson said it wasn’t long for this world and the best thing that could happen to it was to put it in a grain sack and take to the Bonnechere! Needless to say that sent me into fits of crying and I begged Mother to let me keep it in the house until it had grown a bit. I even promised to knit an extra dishcloth without being asked, a task I likened to cleaning the outhouse! Finally, Mother relented. It would have to be kept in a box at night. I would have to take it outside to “do its business”, and it would only be in the house until it was able to fend for itself out in the barn. I was so happy, and that night I printed in my diary that for the first time ever, I was allowed to have a baby kitten in the house! I called it Scratch...because it loved to scratch on the side of the cardboard box which was its home through the night. It grew and flourished. How Scratch grew! Every day Mother would warn me that soon it would have to join the other cats in the barn. The litter was born early in the fall, and as the nights got colder, I was eternally grateful that Scratch was in a warm spot to sleep. Just before I went to bed every night I took Scratch outside and then put her into the cardboard box. She was growing so fast with my tender love and care that soon she would outgrow her night bed. Then one morning, even before I was out of bed, I heard Mother let

a scream out of her that I was sure could be heard across the twentyacre field. I tore downstairs, not knowing what to expect. And there was Scratch sound asleep outside the box, and beside her, half mutilated, were two very dead mice! Now, if there was anything Mother hated more than the common housefly or pet animals in the house, it was a mouse! She was sure they carried germs. It wasn’t so much that she was afraid of them; it was just that she thought they were just about the dirtiest critters on earth! And there was little hope of keeping them out of the house, in spite of the countless traps spaced around the floor. Well, it was obvious how the mice had come to meet their maker. Scratch had done them in, that was obvious. And that’s what changed Mother’s mind about having a pet in the house! Scratch, as long as she was ‘earning her keep’, was allowed to spend the nights in the cardboard box in the kitchen. She spent most of the winter there, that year. But the day came when Scratch herself wanted to be out in the barns. She had grown full size. She remained the only cat with the odd colouring, and she sneaked around unheard and ignored the other cats completely. And when I saw that she much preferred the hen house over the cow byre, I wondered if there was more truth than poetry to what Emerson claimed...maybe there was a bit of fox-blood running through her veins.

DAYTRIPPER Say “Cheese!” hand, it is typical of what’s great about Prince Edward County. The company had a major celebration and a disastrous setback in 2001. They celebrated their 100th anniversary in June 2001 with the unveiling of a centennial plaque on a large granite rock beside the main building. A few months later, on October 9, a devastating fire destroyed everything. The factory and storage area, including all the cheese that had spent five to nine years in a maturing process, were gone. Over the next year, the factory was rebuilt and reopened in 2002. “A lot of cheese companies use enhancers to speed the aging process.,” said Brad Reid, Black River’s chief cheesemaker. “We do everything the natural way. Our three year old cheese is aged three years. We started e v e r y thing back up from scratch in 2002.” R e i d c o m e s from a cheesemaking family. “My dad and brother are both cheesemakers,” he said.

with the location and the old-fashioned way of making cheese. He explained the taste of Black River Cheese products. “Our cheese is unique and so good because of the county milk,” he said. “We use local dairy products. There’s lots of history to this place. A whole gamut of things comes together for the taste. We’re still making cheese here the way my father did. We mix and stir by hand. There is lots of hands-on work, which gives us better quality control than when everything is flowing through pipes and tubes. Continued on page 14

Heritage Lifestyle - When I first heard people talking about Black River Cheese, I thought they were a bit curdled in the head. “You can taste the difference.” “It’s because of the cows,” or “It’s because of the Quinte water the cows drink.” Yeah, right. I’m a skeptic at my core, but several years ago I was converted to the view that the superior taste of Black River Cheese is observable. Not sure about the cow stories. Whatever the reason, Black River Cheese is a delectable delight. There are many locations where you can get it locally, or the factory is a short drive away in Prince Edward County. It’s a lovely outing at any time of the year. The Black River Cheese Company started in 1901. The factory store was added in the 1970s. The company was formed as a cooperative by local farmers after the U.S. instituted a free trade barrier, the McKinley Tariff of 1900, which devastated the barley and malt exports from the Quinte region. The Prince Edward County dairy industry expanded rapidly as farmers looked for new income sources. Local shipping ports near Milford allowed the company to meet a high demand for quality cheese in Great Britain. In its early days, the factory operated from early spring, when pasture for local cows became available, until the end of pasture season, usually the end of October. Black River Cheese, named after the river where the factory is located, has over 25 kinds of cheese including jalapeno, hot pepper and salsa, and mozzarella with horse radish. My family loves the maple flavoured cheddar. Me, not so much. I prefer my cheese basic and unflavored by anything but it’s own natural taste. They also offer “squeaky cheese,” fresh curds, twice weekly. Visitors come from around the world to the historic company in Milford, Ontario. Recently, visitors from Australia and New York City were in the shop when I visited. “This is what makes your country great,” said Australian Malcolm Taylor, an ice cream cone in one hand and a bag of curds in the other. “Little companies can make a go of it and produce something that tastes this good.” I didn’t have the heart to tell him that a small rural company like Black River Cheese is now the exception.

Lifestyle – Russell Boles of Niagara Falls, Ontario, writes: “Hi Bill,

“Back in 1968, I purchased my first and only hot rod from a friend in rural Niagara. Charley Crowther built it – a 1933 Ford two-door coach with a flathead V8, lovely canary yellow paint job and a silver naugahyde interior stitched up by his mother! I drove it as my only car for about a year, with a constant smile on my face. However, I was getting married in the spring of 1970 and reluctantly sold the car in the fall of ’69 as I could not afford to keep it. I’ve kicked myself for over 40 years for letting it go. I sold it in Stoney Creek and it changed hands several times and I lost track of it. “A few years ago, I learned that my old ’33 had returned to Niagara, next door to where it was built so many years

Here’s the same ’33 Ford today, now red and still a hot rod. Note the black “bra” at the front to protect from stone chips. Also note the dual windshield wipers mounted on the roof, twin cowl lights, custom license plate, and cool owner with thumbs in pockets (we all stood that way 40 years ago!).

Local author Wayne Grady nominated twice for 2013 Giller Prize By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@theemc.ca

Heritage News - At the age of 65, Wayne Grady says he feels like a kid again. In the midst of a very successful writing career, having already penned 14 works of non-fiction and translated 15 novels, Grady made the Giller Prize long list for not only his own debut novel, Emancipation Day, but also his translation of Quebec author Louis Hamelinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book October 1970. The former was a true la-

bour of love, which took Grady 15 years to complete. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel just like one of those first time novelists out there who are in their 20s,â&#x20AC;? notes Grady, who lives in Athens, Ontario with his wife, author Merilyn Simonds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After working on something for so long and that was so hard to get right, to have so many people tell me yes, they really enjoyed it, that the novel works and is good is absolutely amazing. And then to get on the long list, of course, confirmed all of that.â&#x20AC;? Emancipation Day was inspired by Gradyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s real-life experience of discovering his familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s African Canadian heritage for the first time in his late 40s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My first reaction was fascination,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d grown up not knowing anything about the family history â&#x20AC;&#x201C; where we came from, how we got to Windsor. My father never told us anything about that. So when I found out about his history, suddenly I had this whole family I could look up, people I could go talk to and find out more things from. I was really excited.â&#x20AC;? When he asked his father about his family, however, Grady got a surprising answer: â&#x20AC;&#x153;He said he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know that his family was African Canadianâ&#x20AC;Ś I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t [believe him]. When I did the research

and went to Windsor to talk to his family, the ones who were still around, they all knew.Â Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all happily members of the black community. My father was 18 when he left Windsor and joined the Navy. He must have known, but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t force him to tell me.â&#x20AC;? About 15 years ago, Grady began writing a non-fiction book about the story of his parents and his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family. Slowly, it morphed into a work of fiction that eventually became Emancipation Day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When [my parents] died there were things I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find out, like what they were thinking at certain times and what their motivation was for certain things. So I found I had to make it up, and that means Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m writing fiction.â&#x20AC;? Grady will share some of what he learned about writing fiction based on oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family history during a sold-out Kingston WritersFest workshop Sept. 28. His advice to writers looking to explore such a personal subject: forget theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re family. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to

write what happens to the character in a way that arises out of the story youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re writing, not out of real life,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes the two coincide and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great, but if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to happen next in the story, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a problem for the story. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to the real life events. That was a mistake I made for the first 10 years of writing this book. Every time I needed a new plot element I would look at my parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; historyâ&#x20AC;ŚThatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work.â&#x20AC;? As for his other Giller nomination, Grady says that in many ways being able to translate well simply means being able to write well. Knowing the original language is helpful, he remarks, but not essential. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can always look things up, or you

By: Jeff Maguire Columnist

However the business spokesperson for the opposition Labour Party has criticized the plan saying RM is being sold â&#x20AC;&#x153;on the cheapâ&#x20AC;? to raise needed cash in the wake of the failure of the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic plan for the corporation. Not surprisingly the union which represents British postal workers says it will fight the plan. They have already threatened strike action unless â&#x20AC;&#x153;legally binding assurances on terms and conditionsâ&#x20AC;? are in place before the move to sell stock. RM has answered saying it will consider such an arrangement â&#x20AC;&#x153;for a set period.â&#x20AC;? The UK postal corporation has some impressive statistics to fall back on however. After a dramatic and alarming slide in revenue in recent years, Greene and her staff have not only halted the plunge they appear to have reversed it. RMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operating profit more than doubled (to ÂŁ403 million) in the year to March 31, 2013. Greene says the increase has been spurred by growth in Internet sales and parcel delivery revenue. Overall sales have advanced five per cent to reach ÂŁ9.8 billion. So, what about Canada Post? This countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s postal monopoly is losing money at the same time as public complaints about poor service are on the increase. Clearly the same technological advances which cut a path of destruction through Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s postal systems are also impacting negatively in Canada and North America. One year ago I read a story saying the United States Postal Service, which traces its history back to 1775 and is one of the

few government agencies authorized by the U.S. Constitution, was losing over $42 million a day (yes, every 24 hours) in fiscal 2012. There has been no dramatic reversal of fortune south of the border that I am aware of. As a newspaper writer I recall when door-to-door mail delivery service arrived in my Eastern Ontario community. It was the 1970s and Canada Post had the mail market to itself. In recent times the corporation has been reducing door-to-door delivery here and across the country. Group boxes are erected in every new subdivision and Canada Post, faced with ever declining revenue, is looking for ways to cut its losses. Rural delivery routes are also being abandoned in favour of the so-called â&#x20AC;&#x153;superboxes.â&#x20AC;? Still, a full one-third of Canadians still get their mail at home. Group boxes have created a two-tiered system which is patently unfair in my opinion. Hand-in-hand with service reductions are increases in postage costs which are, frankly, ludicrous. For example, have you mailed a card or letter to the UK recently? We do quite often and have done for years. But my wife is now balking saying the rising cost of stamps makes sending items through the post impractical. At the same time the cost of sending larger parcels overseas has reached a ridiculous level. I read a recent column critical of Canada Post in which the writer noted that â&#x20AC;&#x153;a monopoly that loses money is a remarkable feat.â&#x20AC;? I disagree to some extent. With email and texting rendering letters to

the point of impractical, along with the proliferation of courier services who will take packages virtually anywhere very quickly (for a price of course) the linchpin of Canada Postâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success has been pulled. Better service I believe Canada Post should be following the models which are showing remarkable success in Europe. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true that technology is hurting postal services. But for some people, particularly the ever expanding numbers of seniors who are comfortable using the mail, letters remain a viable option. If Canada Post improves its flagging efficiency that is! In this day and age no one is going to put up with lengthy delivery delays. Most people will pay more to obtain faster service. So, why doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Canada Post examine other potential revenue sources? There is a theory in business that says when revenues decline businesses should increase service, not reduce it. To be truthful the current Canada Post model, unlike its counterparts in Europe (including Royal Mail) isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worth much to private investors. How do you sell a failing business? It is a big issue but I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high time our postal corporation closely examines its questionable practices and moves into the 21st century. Good examples of how to succeed in the current marketplace are out there. But for whatever reasons Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s postal system seems lost in a sea of mediocrity!

Dupuy relishes chance to be on successful team By Jim Barber Staff Writer

R0012266439_0926

Heritage Sports - Every Canadian kid who straps on a pair of hockey skates hopes to make it to the top level of the sport. Whether it’s a little girl idolizing Hayley Wickenheiser, Jayna Hefford, Gillian Apps and the other members of the Canadian Women’s Olympic Team, or a little boy hoping to make it to the National Hockey League, it’s a rare thing when those dreams are tantalizingly close to coming true. As a youngster growing up in the Ottawa area, veteran Kingston Frontenacs forward Jean Dupuy had those very same ice-bound dreams. And for a few days earlier this month he had the chance to experience a taste of life at the mountain top, as he participated in a rookie training camp for the NHL’s Winnipeg Jets. Dupuy was not drafted by any NHL team, but his play over the past two seasons in the Ontario Hockey League im-

pressed the scouting staff and management of the Jets to earn him an invitation to the camp. And for the almost-19 year old, it was a profoundly memorable opportunity. “It was a life-changing experience, really. It showed me what I really need to do to get to the next level, that you can’t take a shift off, that you can’t relax doing drills or taking and giving passes in practice. You have to be ready all the time. I just want to bring that excitement and everything I learned back to the rink here in Kingston,” Dupuy told Kingston Heritage after a recent Frontenacs exhibition game at the Rogers K-Rock Centre. “I was there for about a week. The first day was in Winnipeg and then the rest of the time was in Penticton, B.C. where there was a young stars tournament. None of the veterans from the NHL roster were there but there were guys from the AHL and guys who made some appearances with the team, like [Barrie Colts star] Mark Sheifele. I spent a lot of time with him, and I learned a lot. He’s just a great leader.” The biggest difference Dupuy noticed between play at the OHL level and the pros was the speed in every aspect of the game.

22 The Frontenac EMC - Thursday, September 26, 2013

“You realize just how little time you have with the puck, how little time you have to make decisions. Everything is so fast. And all of the passes are so crisp, and tape to tape – nobody was missing them,” he said. “Just watching everything the pro guys do, their preparation and their intensity and focus on the ice was eye opening. And you learn that the stuff you do off the ice is often as important or more important than what you do on the ice. We had one day off, but those guys don’t know the meaning of a day off, they were right back in the gym, and encouraging other young guys to come into the gym.” Dupuy said he won’t soon forget the moment he slipped a Jets sweater on for the first time. “It felt great. Not being drafted but still earning an invitation to camp and just seeing the jersey with your name on the back you think, ‘hey, the dream is possible.’” The Jets coaching staff told Dupuy they liked his skating ability and tasked him to come back to the OHL and the Frontenacs and be an impact player both on and off the ice. “They said to work on all the little things as well as working on getting bigger and stronger – get better at everything to bring my game to the next level. There’s always room to improve, so they told me to come back to junior and show

my team and my coaches and the league what kind of game I can play.” Frontenacs General Manager Doug Gilmour said he was pleased to see Dupuy to get the chance to strut his stuff on a higher level, and has high praise for a player who has become an anchor on the roster. “He has been very upbeat, even during the tough times we had over the last couple of seasons. He’s a great kid and works his butt of for us. He sticks up for his teammates and he’s also got some skill. Every year we have a projection for improvement for a player and he’s just been getting better and better for us,” he said. “He was in and out of the lineup in his first year [2011-2012], but has done everything the coaches have asked him to do. He is great off the ice in the community, he is great in the dressing room. He is a big part of our hockey club. And he’s been rewarded with a tryout in Winnipeg.” A big kid, standing 6’ 3” and tilting the scales at nearly 200 pounds, Dupuy is what is termed an ‘energy player,’ for the Frontenacs, meaning he hits a lot of bodies, is disruptive on the other team’s power play, can get under the skin of his

opponents, fire up his teammates, but also make solid contributions in all areas of the game. He appeared in 50 contests in 20112012, but had limited ice time, scoring three goals and five assists and adding 25 penalty minutes. Last year, in a more significant role, he had 79 minutes in penalties, while still chipping in with seven points. Coach Todd Gill said it’s Dupuy’s tenacity and leadership that make him a valuable asset on the team. “There’s really only Dupuy and Warren Steele and Darcy Greenaway that were here from day one when I came here and we started the rebuild. We had some trying times over the last couple of years, but those three have showed real maturity and a maximizing their talents. They’re more confident and they’re a year bigger, with another year of experience. It’s going to pay off for them, and for the team,” he said. The Frontenacs opened the regular season on Sept. 14 with a road trip to Peterborough, followed by the home opener against North Bay on Friday Sept. 15.

Motion to prevent ministerial meetings defeated By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News — A motion by Coun. Denis Doyle to compel County Council members to get the permission of Council before meeting with a provincial or federal minister went down in flames at Frontenac County Council’s regular meeting last week in Glenburnie. Doyle’s motion was primarily in response to Warden Janet Gutowski and CAO/Clerk Liz Savill’s impromptu meeting with the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing at a recent Association of Municipalities of Ontario meeting in Ottawa. Doyle’s motion read, in part “Be it resolved that the Council of the County of Frontenac requires all meeting with Provincial or Federal Ministers including members of Frontenac County Council, or County staff, to be preapproved in the form of a resolution passed by County Council prior to such meetings. The resolution presented to Council requesting approval must include the proposed meeting notes to be discussed with the minister.” The idea didn’t float with much of Council. “This is an angry response to a situation,” said Coun. John Inglis. “This is overly restrictive, not workable and I don’t believe we’re addressing any real issue here.”

“I understand the intent but I’m not sure how it would work,” said Coun. Bud Clayton. But it was Coun. John Purdon who likely sunk the proposal. “I read this more than once,” Purdon said. “I find it is complex and maybe will eliminate any further meetings with ministers. “If I want to meet with a minister, I have to get permission? If a minister wants to meet with me, I still need approval? “This is too heavy a weight to have within our procedural bylaw.” And then Purdon got in what could be a thinly-disguised dig at Doyle. “What if our MP or MPP is a minister?” Purdon said. John Gerretsen, MPP for Kingston and the Islands, Doyle’s riding, is currently the Attorney General. Warden Janet Gutowski wasn’t thrilled by the motion either. “It is most unfortunate that we continue to see motions, particularly from Coun. Doyle, that are at odds with the Municipal Act, our procedural bylaw and designed to beat the individual into submission,” she said. “I’m not surprised Coun. Davison seconded this as he has clearly expressed unhappiness with the direction the County is taking.” Coun. Doyle, Davison and David Jones voted for the motion.

Do you have a Charity Child?

Make your community part of your family. When thinking about preparing a Will most individuals divide their estate among their immediate family. They want to be sure that they can provide for the needs of their loved ones. What people may not consider are the possible tax consequences to this decision. Individuals often worry that the tax burden placed on their estate will prevent their children from inheriting all that they should. Some feel it’s not their problem—“the children will work it out.” Consider this question, “If you had a choice to give a portion of your estate to the government in tax or leave a gift to charity”, which one would you prefer? The answer is probably obvious, but it might still be difficult to know how to make the gift a reality. One creative way to give to charity is to include a ‘Charity Child’ in your Will planning. Including a ‘Charity Child’ could be of real benefit to those who are interested in providing for their loved ones, leaving a legacy to their community and limiting their estate to the exposure of estate taxes*. Here’s an example: Through careful estate planning a family with three children divides their estate into quarters, leaving the last quarter to go to not-for-profits or charities that have touched their lives. Upon the passing of both parents, the Will outlines that each child will receive one quarter of their parent’s estate. The fourth quarter is dedicated to the Charity Child and directed to the causes that are dearest to their hearts. By placing a charitable bequest in one’s Will, the estate will benefit and receive a charitable tax receipt for the gift. This will help to offset any taxes payable to the government. The children will still receive the portion of the estate generously left for them as well. What is also very important is the children can celebrate their parents’ legacy of making a difference in the community through their philanthropic dreams. As a society we are wealthy beyond measure and one of the greatest gifts we can give to our children is the gift of philanthropy and a legacy of helping others. How do you want to be remembered? Please consider making a difference in the lives that follow. * This is a general source of information only.

Kingston Writersfest: A flamin’ good time ladydinesalot@gmail.com

Gazette Lifestyle - Kingston WritersFest kicks off its fifth season on Sept. 25 at the Holiday Inn Waterfront located downtown. My plans include several workshops and lectures. In fact, I started a week early with Jeanette Walls at Queen’s University. She is author of the bestselling memoir The Glass Castle. The book chronicles her nomadic childhood, which at times included homelessness. It was a great way to begin my literary feast prior to the festival launch. The year’s festival welcomes sessions across a variety of genres and topics, including workshops on writing for the teen scene, tools for promoting your writing, storytelling, travel writing, true crime, screen writing and more. Not to mention food events, such as the Book Lovers Lunch and Tea and Literary Treats. According to the WritersFest website, over 300 published authors live in our region and several writers of international stature make their home here. The festival began in 2006, and has grown substantially over the years. Now, is now recognized alongside some of the best literary celebrations in Canada. Internationally celebrated Canadian author, environmental activist and inventor Margaret Atwood returns this year. In 2009, she opened the Kingston WritersFest and this year helps to mark the fifth anniversary. She is author of more than 40 books of fiction, poetry and critical essays. The festival’s objective is to celebrate literacy in every genre and stimulate the creative impulse that contributes so much to the cultural vibrancy of our city. Kingston loves to read and write. In fact, first Canadian cookbook, The Cook Not Mad, was published here in Kingston in 1831. It outlined the art of curing meats and vegetables, and offered miscellaneous important information for housekeepers and general directions for cooking. I’ve enjoyed many events at

Kitchen Kreations

WritersFest over the years, but the 2010 event named after this earlier publication, the Cook Not Mad Sunday Brunch was the most memorable, not just for the engaging speaker, but also the activity surrounding it. I love cookbooks. The art and design that go into a well thought out cookbook are magic. I equally love the experience of eating. WritersFest offered an event about food, a cookbook author combined with a delicious brunch, and I was a moth to the flame. The event was held on the last day of the festival. Volunteers were beaming and relishing the success of another year, yet exhausted over the intense daily sessions. Sunday brunch was a flaming good time in more ways than one. We had settled into our tables and been served our first course. The cookbook author was being interviewed on the main stage. We enjoyed her tales of kitchen creations and her love of cooking.

Otherwise, you both may be floundering around for some time. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 – Virgo, good news awaits on the job this week, even if it is totally unexpected. Nonetheless, it can be exciting to know that someone is watching out for you.

“I spent my formative years in Vancouver, and when I was in high school, I got some fake I.D. made up so I could get into the clubs, and that was back at a time when fake I.D. worked. I just turned 17 when I started in stand up. Comedy wasn’t really as popular as it is today. Not every city had a comedy club like they do now. So you would go into a bar and they would have to shut down the pool tables and things like that. I did a lot of work as an MC in strip clubs, and other places where you don’t really want to be doing comedy, but I think that’s where you learned to be good, to be tough and to think fast on your feet.” Stiles soon gravitated to Second

City in Toronto, and then moved out west when Second City set up a venue in Los Angeles. It was while honing his craft as an improviser that he was recruited by Dan Patterson, the producer of Whose Line. The rest is show biz history, as Stiles became a wildly popular regular on the show. The format of the live show is similar to the TV program, but with some significant differences. The television performers were limited by a relatively small set, so being on a stage such as the one at the Grand allows for more games that involve physicality and movement. The games last longer and are not as regimented as they are for the 23 or so minutes allowed on network prime time television for a half-hour show. And there is more audience interaction, the lifeblood of both the live and television versions. For those unfamiliar with Whose Line and Whose Live, essentially there are a number of games designed to test the various improvisational and laugh-inducing skills of the four performers. All of the suggestions for the parameters of those games and silly songs come from the audience, meaning the performances are always off-thecuff, unscripted and unpredictable. In other words, it’s a different show every night. A naturally humble person, Stiles is cognizant of how fortunate he has been and doesn’t take his success, or the experiences he has had, for granted. “I’ve never really planned anything, even when I did stand up. I have always kind of thought that if you just do good work, you will get

more work, rather than pursuing it and trying to convince people that you’re good. For example, I was in the movie Hot Shots with Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer, so when Two and a Half Men was looking to fill the role of Herb, they and producer Chuck Lorre kind of knew me and hired me for that. That’s an example of just doing good work and getting along with the people you work with, so that they want to work with you again,” he said. “And I have had a chance to work with my idols, people that I never would have worked with if I had still been doing just stand up. Sid Caesar did Whose Line, so did Robin Williams. I have worked with Jonathan Winters before and Tim Conway, all the people I grew up admiring. And I am lucky. I get to work as much as I want to. I get film offers and I usually turn them down because I don’t want to travel. I don’t want to be away from my family. The best thing about Two and a Half Men is that I do about 11 episodes a year, so I can just hop down there, do a show and be back home. And with Whose Line, we shoot six shows over two weekends, and they can usually get about three episodes of material from each show. And then I work here at my own theatre when I am home.” Besides Stiles, Proops, Jeff Davis and Joel Murray are participating in the Whose Live show in Kingston on Oct. 2.
