Reid wins sixth term in Parliament with LanarkFrontenac-Kingston victory

By Craig Bakay Reporter

News — Lanark-FrontenacKingston wasn’t the last riding to post final results in the federal election, it just felt like it.

And it seemed like Conservative Scott Reid and Liberal Phil Archambault were both willing to wait for the last vote to be counted before acknowledging victory (or defeat).

But in the end, it was Reid returning to Ottawa, handily defeating Archambault by 8,000 votes.

The final numbers were Reid: 27,399 (47.9 per cent); Archambault: 19,325 (33.8 per cent); NDP John Fenik: 8,073 (14.1 per cent); Green Anita Payne: 2,025 (3.5 per cent) and Libertarian Mark Budd: 418 (0.7 per cent).

There were 57,240 valid votes cast for a 72.62 per cent turnout compared with the national turnout of 17,559,353 votes for a 68.49 per cent turnout.

And while he was pleased to be returning to Ottawa for a sixth term, it was a bittersweet victory in many ways. “I don’t think anybody saw this

coming (a Liberal majority),� Reid said. “I don’t know what it signifies other than conventional polling methods are not representative of the electorate’s views.�

When a reporter asked how Justin Trudeau managed the victory, Reid said: “I’m the last person you should ask that. It didn’t happen in this riding.�

While most ridings were done and counted, L-F-K results were painfully slow. And, in a fashion strangely reminiscent of the last provincial election, the Liberal candidate was ahead in the early going.

After 15 polls, Archambault was ahead by 100 votes.

But as the number hit 20, Reid was up by 100.

After 30 polls, Reid was up by 350, by 400 after 40 and after 75 of 233 polls had reported, Reid held only a 500 vote edge. That was at 11:30 p.m.

However, after 90 polls, Reid held a comfortable 1,500 vote margin.

Still, he was unwilling to declare victory.

Here’s a sampling of what the candidates were saying on election night

By Craig Bakay

Continued from page 1

It wasn’t until Fenik showed up at Fiddleheads (all three major party candidates watched results in downtown Perth) to admit defeat and congratulate Reid just before midnight that the returning MP finally acquiesced to the group of reporters wanting a victory statement. At that point, 148 polls had reported and Reid’s lead was more than 4,000 votes.

“I’m glad to be back but sad to be in opposition,” Reid said. “There will be different challenges but different opportunities also.

“I plan to continue my campaign to get wider access to defibrillators in the riding and to get them into RCMP cruisers,” he said. “I remain committed to preferential representation as opposed to proportional representation and I assume I’ll be back on the human rights commission.

“We get to keep our same offices on Parliament Hill but I’ll have a different seat in the legislature.”

With the announcement that Stephen Harper will step down as leader of the party, Reid categorically ruled out any run for the leadership.

“It’s a big commitment that would involve a lot of sacrifices,” he said.

Over at The Golden Arrow Pub, Archambault was even less willing to accept that it was over.

Finally, around 12:30, he threw in the towel and headed over to congratulate Reid. When he got there, all the Conservatives had gone home and the place was dark.

Archambault, like Reid, was of two minds when the night was over — happy for his party but sad for the local results.

Still, he didn’t rule out another run for a seat.

“I’m still young,” he said. “In four years, I’ll be 50 but for now, at least I can still take my kid to hockey.”

Reporter

News — Election night in Perth was somewhat unique. It’s not often the three major party candidates watch the returns within easy walking distance from each other. Conservative victor Scott Reid was at Fiddleheads, Liberal Phil Archambault was at The Golden Arrow Pub and NDPer John Fenik was at O’Reilly’s Pub. As such, the half-dozen or so reporters in attendance spent much of the night ‘pubcrawling’ between the three, picking up quotes at each stop.

Here’s a sampling of what the candidates had to say as the returns came in, and after the results were finalized.

Reid: “There are always opportunities across party lines — if you’re willing to share credit (clearly Reid heard Blue Jay R. A. Dickey’s quote ‘it’s amazing what you can accomplish if you don’t care who gets the credit.’”

Archambault: “I gave it all I had (but) I would have liked to have knocked on more doors (he estimated he made it to about 2,500 of the 42,000 homes in the riding).”

Fenik: “I used to think Perth was the centre of the universe — it’s not” (reflecting on feedback he received in his door-to-door campaign.

Reid: on Stephen Harper stepping down as party leader — “I really don’t have anything on that.”

Archambault: on the same subject — Scott’s

a nice guy, it’s probably why he won. Harper’s not.”

Fenik: on the same subject — “I’m glad Harper’s gone if nothing else.”

Reid: on not considering a bid for the Conservative Party leadership — “I can think of a lot of people who’d be better at it than I would.”

Archambault: on his defeat — “it’s like a job interview — some of the jobs you get and some you don’t.”

Fenik: “I’ll continue my term as Mayor of Perth (but) I’ll be considering another bid for the NDP in the next federal election.”

Reid: “More people voted for Stephen Harper tonight in this riding than voted for me.”

Archambault: “I still have work to do at Providence Care. Then, who knows? I would have liked to work on indigenous peoples’ issues.”

Fenik: “Tomorrow, I’ll be looking at charts to Cuba. I have a sailboat.”

Reid: “We’re less multi-cultured in this riding than many others — obviously.”

Archambault: “I’ll still be involved with the party, I have a whole list of people who asked for lawn signs.”

Fenik: “I have no regrets. I’m not the slightest bit envious.”

Reid: “This riding has changed configuration many times in 42 elections but in all that time it’s been Conservative except for the four times it went Liberal and the one time it went for another party — that was when I won as a member of the

Canadian Alliance.”

Archambault: “It would have been nice to be in Parliament. I think I could have brought a lot of investment to this area in terms of government and social programs.”

Fenik: “I think this is going to be a very different Parliament.”

Pine Meadows asks for Frontenac County’s help with $125,000 redevelopment budget shortfall

By Craig Bakay Reporter

News — Pine Meadows Nursing Home representatives came to Frontenac County Council’s regular meeting last week in Glenburnie asking the question: ‘do you do windows?’ Technically, Pine Meadows is

in Cloyne, in Lennox & Addington County, but as the boundary with Frontenac County is at the edge of Cloyne’s municipal limit, many of the residents there are from North and Central Frontenac Townships.

Ernest Lapchinski told Frontenac County Council that Pine Meadows has just completed a redevelopment plan of two new wings in order to be

classified as a “New Beds Facility,� an upgrade over its old designation of “Class A Home.�

However, there are still renovations needed to the original facility, namely replacing the original windows at a cost of $13,500 per times 11 windows or about $165,000. “They’re all bay windows that have foundations in the ground,�

There’s

he said. “And they weren’t properly done in the first place which is why they have to be replaced now.�

Frontenac County has a retirement facility (Fairmount Home), which it shares (including costs) with the City of Kingston. Fairmount Home is technically within the Kingston city limits and many of its residents are from Kingston as well as the County. “Our seniors want to remain as close to home and friends as possible,� said Lapchinski. “Understand that it is a very emotional and traumatic time when you learn you have to move away from the home you’ve lived in for decades and that many of their friends and family cannot drive one and a half hours (to Fairmount) to visit. “That is why Pine Meadows was created in the first place.� “Pine Meadows is not municipally owned . . . it’s not privately owned . . . it’s community owned and so our sources of funding are severely limited,� said Betty Hunter.

She said they have received persona donations from the community, Addington Highlands Township waved the building fees for rede-

THE WIND AND RECYCLING The two don’t mix very well so please take precautions that what you put in your recycling box STAYS in your recycling box.

Loose newspapers will end up kilometers away and empty water bottles tend to gravitate into the ditches and treeline. Not overfilling your box and crushing your bottles will make them more compact and less likely to fly around and the simple act of putting a rock on top of your newspapers will hold them down. An alternative would be to put your newspapers flat in a grocery bag, it holds a lot and they are contained. Please keep our environment in mind when recycling.

velopment and Lennox & Addington donated $250,000 towards the redevelopment. They also receive $10,000 to $15,000 from a yearly golf tournament but those fees are dedicated to courtyard development.

Warden Denis Doyle suggested that perhaps County staff could assist in accessing grants but CAO Kelly Pender said any grants his staff could access would be for municipal facilities only.

Still, Council didn’t say no. “Bud Clayton (former North Frontenac Mayor) tried for years to get funding,� said Coun. John Inglis. “It seems to me the challenge is to find a niche. “We need to find an envelope to pull the money out of (so that) we can provide funding on an ongoing basis.� “I know a lot of Central Frontenac residents have gone there,� said Dep. Warden Frances Smith. “I will be supporting this come budget time.�

If the numbers add up, South Frontenac could sell bulk water from Sydenham plant Reporter

News — After crunching a few numbers, Coun. Ross Sutherland came

to the conclusion that Sydenham isn’t using its water treatment facility up to anywhere near capacity. So, he presented his plan to sell bulk water to a variety of bulk haulers at the regular

From left: Mayor Ron Vandewal, Portland and Area Heritage Committee chair Barb Stewart, and public works manager Mark Segsworth. The committee received an award from the Frontenac Heritage Foundation for its work on the former stone schoolhouse in Hartington, restoring it to a museum with the help of Council and public works employees.

Stewart herself was also singled out for an award, as was David White, Photo/Craig Bakay for his work on restoring the windows.

South Frontenac Council meeting last week in Sydenham. “If my numbers are correct, we have a fair number of bulk haulers that could use our excess until such time as we need it all ourselves due to development in Sydenham,� Sutherland said.

Part of Sutherland’s proposal was to ask Utilities Kingston to confirm his numbers. “I support this,� said Dep. Mayor John McDougall. “We should also ask Utilities Kingston if they sell bulk water and also about staffing costs.�

Mayor Ron Vandewal suggested a report from Utilities Kingston could be part of upcoming budget negotiations. “I wonder about legal questions,â€? said Coun. Pat Barr. “Legal will be part of the report,â€? said CAO/Clerk Wayne Orr. Council passed a motion asking for a report. ••• The idea of creating a township park from a small beach on Canoe Lake has met with mixed reactions, Planner Lindsay Mills told Council.

The beach is currently used by a number of area residents but is partly on private land with the remainder on a Township road allowance. The owner

of the land has applied for a severance, which could allow the Township to acquire said land as part of the parkland provision for said severances. “There have been several letters against the proposal, mostly for reasons of safety, loon habitat, bears, parking liabilities and the alleged behaviour of those already using it as a beach,�

Mills said. “But there have been some letters in favour, mostly from people whose children use it. “(But) if we’re creating a park, we’re asking people to come and we should provide parking and if we’re going to provide parking, we need a bigger chunk of land.� “Where are people going to park?� asked Coun. Pat Barr. “Seems to me like an accident waiting to happen.�

“It sounds like people have been using it historically,� said Coun. Mark Schjerning. “If we make a park, the only thing that changes is ownership and we do away with the aspect of trespass.�

Council agreed to invite those concerned to a committee of the whole meeting to discuss the matter before deciding.

Local artist thanks Kingston Police with commemorative oil painting mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Saying ‘thank you’ is something that is very important to local artist Pat Shea; recently, the Kingston native has been thanking those who don’t often seek or receive thanks in the form of oil paintings and his next message of thanks is directed at the Kingston Police Force.

“I approached them and told them about my ‘Thank you’ series and why I was doing it,” explained Shea. “They loved the idea and I’ve been working on the painting for about a year now.”

Shea has been painting for most of his life and started working with oils when he was just 13. He learned early on that he liked impressionist painters and preferred the style in his own work too. In high school he was heavily influenced by the Group of Seven and landscapes, including the many iconic landscapes of Kingston, and those have continued to be very interesting and inspirational for him.

Shea’s ‘Thank you’ series originated in 2010 when he learned that a close friend was returning to Afghanistan for his third tour of duty. Shea was urged by others to go along, but thought the idea was crazy and that made him realize just

this and make sure it works visually,” he said. “A painting that is well composed should take the viewer’s eye on a little journey through the painting and they won’t even know it. I hope I achieved that.”

Shea still has some finishing touches to make on the giant fourby-six foot painting, but when it is completed it will be unveiled and displayed in the community room at Kingston Police Headquarters.

“I was honoured to have the painting accepted for the community room. It will be great to have it there for everyone to see and that was really important to me and to them,” he said.

So with this work almost completed, who is Shea planning on thanking next?

“The next one may be for the heart clinic because right in the middle of doing this painting I had a triple bypass that I wasn’t expecting, so I may have to thank them,” he said. “They helped me finish, so they deserve some thanks.”

Raising flags of Remembrance

By Rob Mooy Reporter

News - “Flags of Remembrance” were raised in Kingston Oct. 17 along Bayridge Drive from Front Road to Henderson Boulevard. The flags, part of Veterans Voices of Canada / Flags of Remembrance, provide a powerful, visual state-

ment to honour our Canadian military men and women.

A total of 128 Canadian flags representing 128,000 Canadian war dead and missing in action from the Boer War to present, will remain in place until Nov. 14. The flags are accompanied by a plaque recognizing

and honouring individual veterans. The heroes named on each honour plaque act as ‘guardians’ of the 1,000 souls each flag represents.

The timing of the Kingston installation coincides with Flags of Remem-

brance tributes in four other locations: the original location of Sylvan Lake, Alta.; Kelowna, B.C.; Ponoka, Alta.; Amherst, N.S.; and Charlottetown, P.E.I. Flags of Remembrance is also a fundraising initiative, supporting Veterans Voices of Cana-

da – a volunteer organization dedicated to preserving the stories and experiences of Canada’s military veterans. Locally, Flags of Remembrance - Kingston benefits Dominium Assistance Dogs, which provides psychiatric and mobility service dogs.

In Our Opinion

Good luck in the next four years, Mr. Prime Minister, chances are you’re going to need it

Column — Now that the federal election is over, can we expect life to return to some semblance of normalcy?

One good thing is that it’s probably safe to go back to Facebook. Well, it will be as soon as my Liberal Facebook ‘friends’ get tired of gloating. Liberals love to gloat.

But you have to wonder, whom will these people vilify now that they don’t have Stephen Harper to kick around any more? Liberals love to vilify Conservative leaders.

Chances are it will be Prime Minister Justin Trudeau himself if things don’t go their way. Just ask Paul Martin, Stephane Dion and Michael Ignatieff how that can work.

That’ll probably take awhile though.

Presumably, most Liberal supporters are in favour of what Trudeau promised to do during the election campaign. In case anybody forgot, he said he would: 1. Increase taxes on high-income

earners (within his first 100 days) 2. Reverse the doubling of Tax Free Savings Account limits and income splitting 3. Conduct an inquiry into missing and murdered First Nations women 4. Revamp child benefits 5. “Amend� Bill C-51 (which gave new investigative powers to federal institutions 6. Legalize and regulate marijuana (although I can’t confirm it I think this was a first-100-days promise too) 7. Return the ‘long-form’ census 8. Create electoral reform But any one of these issues is a potential mine field and could end the new PM’s honeymoon with the Canadian electorate in a hurry, and if the electorate turns against him, the party faithful won’t be far behind.

But many of Trudeau’s plans may not get to see the light of day. As John Lennon so succinctly put it “life’s what happens while you’re making other plans.� And in this case, there is plenty of ‘life’ going on that any prime minister will have to deal with in one way or another.

For example, Trudeau will have to deal with things like:

Kanata Kourier-Standard

1.

Climate change, especially as it relates to oil industry revenues and taxes 2. Pipeline projects 3. Right to die issues 4. ISIS and terrorism, including Canada’s worldwide ‘peacekeeper’ role 5. Whatever other ‘trendy’ issues pop up (they always do) The Conservatives didn’t think Trudeau will be up to these challenges.

The electorate obviously did. But unless he wears blue tights with a big red S on his chest under his PM clothes, Trudeau’s going to have his hands full of things he’d probably rather not have to deal with.

And let’s not forget that his election promises are going to be costly. He pledged to go into a deficit and those things have a habit of snowballing. If the country gets too far in debt, he’ll hand the Conservatives a ready-made issue for the next election.

To his credit though, Trudeau did prove himself to be a worthy campaigner, taking body blow after body blow from Conservative attack ads.

But an election campaign is different from a term of office and chances are the only thing he’ll be able to say for himself in four years is “thank God nothing happened to my hair.�

Trudeau Act 1: going to pot?

Editorial – In the final wild and crazy days of the federal election, Prime Minister Stephen Harper stared into a TV camera and declared that marijuana was, from a health perspective, “infinitely worse� than tobacco. It was a baseless claim strongly refuted by seemingly every public health official consulted.

The statement recalled how from the earliest days of Trudeau’s candidacy, Harper worked tirelessly to promote the image of Trudeau ‘the pusher’, endangering your children by making the drug more widely available in corner stores.  That is why we feel is worthwhile here in these pages to dispel these myths, so that readers get the facts before the now inevitable roll-out of a government regulated marijuana industry takes effect. The first thing to understand is that marijuana is far less addictive than cigarettes. Approximately 10 per cent marijuana users risk becoming addicted, compared to about 68 per cent of tobacco users. Furthermore, studies show that while there are some negative health consequences to prolonged exposure to marijuana smoke, they are nowhere near the same level as those present with tobacco carcinogens. Steven Laviolette with Western University’s Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry has said “The cancers and other sources of pulmonary diseases associated with smoking [tobacco]‌ are infinitely more serious than what we would ever encounter with smoking marijuana, and that’s well established.â€?

Second, the fact that marijuana is not currently legal to purchase does not mean it’s difficult for youth to obtain. Indeed, chances are pretty good that one of your neighbours has a plant or two growing in their home for their own personal use. The continued criminalization of marijuana possession has done nothing to prevent Canada from becoming one of the highest per capita consumers of cannabis in the world. Legalizing and regulating the sale of marijuana could go a long ways toward preventing underage marijuana smoking, much in the same way that strong regulation and continued public health campaigns were crucial in curtailing youth tobacco smoking. This is not to say that there are no dangers that accompany the process of legalization. Indeed, the biggest public health threat that legalization poses may well be the threat of impaired drivers. The Liberal platform states they will strengthen the penalties and more severely punish those found guilty of this crime. We therefore believe that any rollout should be accompanied by a public safety campaign that underscores the dangers of driving while high and highlights the new, harsher penalties for driving under the influence.

Have something to say?

THANK YOU!

I want to thank the voters in the new electoral district of Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston for giving me a sixth mandate to serve as their representative in the House of Commons.

The election campaign is over and, for the 338 MPs elected to the 42nd Parliament, the business of governing the nation now begins. With each new election, all MPs---both new and old---have to be prepared to adjust to changes in government, changes in riding boundaries, and changes in the political issues that dominate the news. Representing all residents of this riding, regardless of how they voted in the election, will be my top priority in the coming months.

From Kingston in the south end of this riding to Pakenham in the north, I hope you will always feel my door is open, and that you will always be aware that my staff is eager to help you with any government issue.

Sincerely, Scott Reid

Lost Keys Has a Story

of last year and has committed to enter the U.S. and European markets soon.

In their ads and videos Toyota enlisted both Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd (co-stars of all three Back to the Future films) to ponder what technologies from their movies actually made it into reality. Check out the various versions on YouTube.

Broken or defective; who decides?

One of the most common sources of service-counter friction between customers and dealership service personnel is the broken/defective warranty debate. This mostly involves trim items but even these can get expensive to repair or replace.

Consumers can basically be sorted into two camps on this issue. The first will readily admit it was their fault and

of the doubt from time to time, they will lose business.

Best advice; be honest and upfront at the counter and if your dog chewed through a $400 seatbelt, or one of the tribe broke a seat handle with a hockey stick, get out the credit card and be prepared to pay.

If you have any questions, opinions, or stories on anything automotive please drop me a line, [By email to emc@perfprint.ca or directly to bjoeturner@hotmail.com listing ‘Question for the Car Counselor’ on the subject line or by post to Record News Communications, 5 Lorne St., P.O.

ask for a repair estimate and the latter will insist that the car manufacturer should be responsible for anything that breaks or fails within the warranty period. However it’s the dealership’s job to determine whether a part failed from a manufacturing defect or from an excessive or improper use of the component. This can be a fine line to toe.

Dealerships are required under their franchise agreements to operate in a manner that is responsible to both the car company they represent and their customers. If their warranty expenses rise too high as a result of claiming anything and everything, they can be subjected to a very harsh audit and chargeback of questionable claims.

Some interesting news in the automotive industry has cropped up in the last few weeks.

Consumers Report released their 2015 Auto Reliability Survey and while it found the usual contenders at the top and suspects at the bottom, there were some surprising results. Their survey is based not only on their own testing (Consumers buys and owns all the vehicles they test) but from feedback from almost 750,000 subscribers on problems encountered during the first three years of ownership.

The top five makes were Lexus, Toyota, Audi, Mazda, and Subaru and the bottom five were Infiniti, Cadillac, Ram, Jeep and Fiat. The Tesla S luxury sports electric sedan lost its Consumers Report recommended status due to what CR deemed to be an excessive amount of owner reported problems. Interestingly enough, a survey of current Tesla S owners found that 97 per cent would buy another one.

Chevrolet seems to be bucking the trend of consumer interest trailing away from electric vehicles that have plagued other automakers due to relatively low gasoline prices in 2015.

They recently announced the addition of a second shift to the product plant that produces the extended-range Volt as well as the Cadillac ETR due to increased demand.

Chevrolet and the Roush family of companies have teamed up to fill a verified market need. Roush, better known for armoured vehicle design and creation, has taken stock Chevrolet Spark subcompacts and modified them for Dominos Pizza for delivery vehicles. They come equipped with a large warming oven and an interior capacity to hold up to 80 pizzas. U.S. Dominos franchise owners can purchase the Spark DXP (Delivery Expert) for $20K-$25K. Just in time for football

season.

If any one car company could be labeled as a die-hard fan of the Back to the Future movie franchise, it would have to be Toyota. First, earlier this year, the design and engineering team at Toyota’s luxury make Lexus, came out with a fully functioning hoverboard (it needs a steel or iron plated surface to hover on). It looks remarkably identical to the toy that Michael J. Fox’s character in the movies uses to escape a number of perilous situations and took more than a little effort and resources to bring to life.

Now they have created a series of TV spots and short online videos to promote their hydrogen fuel-cell powered Mirai. Toyota launched production models of the Mirai in Japan at the end

1975 Pontiac Ventura with a Cadillac 500 V8!

Peter Phillips of Mississauga, Ont., purchased a 1975 Pontiac Ventura in 1991 from its original owner to be his wife’s daily driver. Two years later, he had to fix some things. Once he started, he couldn’t

stop and the car is now completely rebuilt into its present state.

“Not only is it a ‘dare to be different’ car, it’s a ‘low-buck’ car too. Sheet metal was repaired or replaced including full rear quarters but many other pieces were made from ordinary sheet metal stock. To economize, I painted it in my garage. When it was done, I still have the air compressor and spray equipment I had to buy.

“Then I drove it for a year or two but it’s hard to drive a screaming red car and not be challenged on the street – and with a 231 V6, it was embarrassing. So I started looking for a big cube V8. Big block Chevies were too expensive and 455 Buick Olds and Pontiacs were almost as bad. Then I read about the big 500 cubic inch Caddy motors.

“The interior was completely redone and appears stock with original bench seat. It rides on BF Goodrich radial T/As and US Steel 5 spoke rims.

“Many times while doing this car, I wondered why. It’s not an SS or GTO, just a Ventura. But with Caddy power it gets attention at car shows. Plus I’m no longer embarrassed by lack of horsepower. The car is an absolute blast to drive!”

of torque. A donor car was found and the swap began.

“It’s not an easy swap. Motor mounts have to be fabricated, exhaust headers are made from modified BBC headers, suspension needs to be altered in a couple of places, steering shaft pushed to the outside and all the other bits and pieces that need to be fabbed for any engine swap. An aluminum rad and electric fan do the cooling.

“The engine has been completely rebuilt with Comp Cams cam, springs and lifters, Edelbrock intake and a few subtle distributor and carb changes. A ram air/cold air intake system was purchased from Spectre.

Kingston artists team up with Greenhawk for food sharing fundraiser

By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Julia Redfearn opened Greenhawk Harness and Equestrian

Supplies in Kingston this past May and while the store is filled with bridles, brushes and different horse accessories, she felt that something was missing.

“I wanted some art to brighten up some of the spaces in the store,� explained Redfearn. “I started asking customers if they knew anyone and it didn’t take me long to find some great artists.�

Shortly after coming up with the idea, Greenhawk’s walls were filled with works by local watercolour artist Shirley Hulley and equestri-

an photos from her son Patrick. “I got into photography in the past three to four years and I am addicted to it,� explained Hulley, “So when the opportunity came up to showcase some of that work I jumped on it.�

In addition to filling the walls, the artwork is up for sale in the store and instead of keeping the profits for themselves, Refearn and Hulley decided to donate all proceeds to charity. “All of the profits from selling the pictures and paintings will go

to the Food Sharing Project and as a mom that means a lot to me,� said Redfearn. “We usually do fundraising and we get sponsorship for horse related things, so it is great to do something grass roots in the community for kids.�

The Food Sharing Project has been feeding kids in the Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington area since 1982. The program works to ensure that children do not go through their school day hungry.

The group partners with school boards, food banks, community groups, businesses, service clubs and individuals to feed children in schools each day. Students are fed through organized breakfast, lunch and hearty snack programs according to the needs of each school and community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is a great program,â&#x20AC;? said Hulley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are helping kids get meals and I am so happy to be involved with it.â&#x20AC;?

Last year, 13,000 students were fed by the Food Sharing programs, which are located in 95 schools in the Limestone District School Board and the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board.

New theatre group hopes to get people doing the time warp mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Events – For the past 40 plus years, Fansylvanians have been jumping to the left and stepping to the right year after year around Halloween. This year, Crystal Amazement, a new production group in Kingston, is putting on a live production of the cult classic The Rocky Horror Show and they hope fans, both new and old, come out to experience the thrill of it all.

“We were brainstorming last year and came up with the idea to do Rocky Horror and nothing really changed that,” said Dan Niznik, director of the production and founding member of Crystal Amazement.

“We wanted to kind of test the waters with our first production and we wanted to get established with a fun and interactive show.”

Fun and interactive are definitely accurate descriptors of The Rocky Horror Show; the musical theatre production has been performed in countless theatres since 1973 and the film, produced in 1975, is still shown in numerous movie theatres each year at Halloween and attracts many loyal, costumed fans.

The Rocky Horror Show follows a young, newly engaged couple who get caught in a storm and come to the home of a mad transvestite scientist. Over the Erin Hand and Max Davidson as Janet and Brad and course of the show, the scientist unveils his John McRae as Dr. Frank N. Furter in the Crystal new creation, a Frankenstein-style monster Amazement production of The Rocky Horror Show. in the form of an artificially made, fully Photo/Submitted grown, physically perfect muscle man

named Rocky Horror.

“So many people love this show or movie and we really wanted to pay tribute to that with this production,” said Niznik.

“We’ve kept it true to the stage version and I think that the show will be entertaining for long-time fans and newcomers.”

Actor Max Davidson plays Brad in the production and while he was a long-time Rocky Horror fan and had seen the movie countless times, he was still pleasantly surprised by the stage production.

“I was surprised to see how many differences there are between the two including new scenes and songs,” he said. “I think it will actually be really fresh to a lot of fans who have never seen the play.”

The most difficult part of putting the show together, according to Niznik, has been the rehearsals and getting actors who also have full-time jobs together for rehearsals, but he is happy with the end result.

“Eventually everything kind of came together as we started rehearsing more,” he said. “The show is so much fun and I think the entire cast is really enjoying it and that shows in the production.”

The Rocky Horror Show and movie screenings are usually accompanied by a fair amount of audience participation and

this show will be no different, but for those who aren’t interested in taking part that’s ok too.

“We will have a few rows at the front designated as the ‘fun zone’ and those will be there for 8 p.m. shows. We’ll also have a couple of ‘safe’ rows for people who don’t want to participate,” explained Niznik.

“But every row will be the fun zone for the midnight shows. We assume the diehard fans will come to those shows so we want to make them as fun as possible.”

Traditionally, audience participation includes yelling, throwing things at the movie screen and singing along, but with a live production things are a bit different.

“Audience members can interact with actual actors,” said Davidson. “We get to play back with the audience and I think that is the biggest benefit to seeing it live. We both get to enjoy it and the atmosphere that is created from the show and I hope people come out for that alone.”

The Crystal Amazement production of The Rocky Horror Show runs from Oct. 28-31 at 8 p.m. with midnight shows on Oct. 30 and 31. The show takes place at Theological Hall at Queen’s University and tickets are $20. For more information visit www.rockyhorrorkingston.ca R0013524067/1029

Frontenac Gazette - Thursday, October 29, 2015 21

Mother knew long winter months ahead would mean being shut in It was happening again. In my mind’s eye I could see back to the year before. It seemed to happen when the weather changed from warm sunny days to a snap in the air, and when flakes of ice formed all around the watering trough in the barnyard.

I just couldn’t put my finger on it, but I was old enough to know there was a change in Mother, and it happened at the same time of the year. What could it be? What had brought it on?

Maybe she was worried that we would have enough food to last us over the coming winter. But that couldn’t be. The cellar was full of preserves and canned vegetables, the smoke house full of meat, and the big barrel of sauerkraut was already out in the summer kitchen beside the smaller barrel of pickled

herring. No, it couldn’t be because Mother was worried about our starving to death. But there was no doubt there was a change in her, and I could feel it in the very depth of my bones.

My older and much wiser sister Audrey, if she sensed it too, wouldn’t talk about it. All she said was ‘it will pass’, as if that would satisfy me, which it didn’t.

Mother stopped playing her harmonica in the evening. She would bring her diaries down out of the back-to-the-wall cupboard, open one, and never raise a pencil to write in it.... just staring at a blank page. She would tap the end of the pencil on the oilcloth covering the table, and it would make a steady ‘plop, plop’, and I would watch her closely, but not a word was put in her diary.

She still made our meals. They were as hearty as ever. There were still rows of pies on the bake table, and the smell of fresh bread met us as we came home from the Northcote School. None of that changed.

It was Mother herself who had changed, and I got an ache in the pit of my stomach and when we said our silent prayers in bed, I prayed that whatever was bothering my mother would go away.

And then one day, it was a Sunday, and we had come home from church, changed into our betterthan-school clothes, when Mother sent Audrey up to the trunk in the hall and asked her to bring down the big white linen tablecloth. The white linen tablecloth? It was only used at Easter and Christmas, and was one of Mother’s most cherished possessions, which she had brought from New York when she moved to Renfrew County.

She took a blue glass pitcher out of the parlour, which sat next to the bible and put it in the centre of the table. It too had come from New York. She told Audrey to set the table and to use the dishes that had come in bags of puffed wheat from Briscoe’s General Store. The table looked like we were expecting the Queen for dinner!

Mother changed into a velvet

dress. It too had come from New York, and was only worn for very special occasions. Father, who wasn’t much for any change to his routine, or for fancying up the house, said nothing. He had been through this before. We sat down at the table with its shiny linen tablecloth, as many matched dishes as Audrey would find, and our usual ample dinner. Supper would be the same as it always was on a Sunday night: a repeat of the noon meal.

After we had redded up the kitchen, the white table cloth put with the pile of laundry awaiting the Monday wash, the lamps lit, shooting shards of light into the corners of the darkening room, Mother went to the back door and opened it wide. The cold night air blew in. She stood there, quietly, for the longest time looking out into the black yard. Then she sighed, as if it was coming from her boot tops, and closed the door and just stood there quietly, saying nothing.

Then she took down her diaries, and her scrapbooks, sharpened her pencils with a kitchen knife, and

began to write. I couldn’t say she had completely lost that melancholy look, but I was relieved to see that her mood had changed. It was almost as if she was saying “so be it”, a phrase she used often.

When we went to bed I begged Audrey to tell me what had happened. She put her face close to my ear so that no one but me could hear and she told me that just before Fall changed to Winter, our mother knew that for months ahead of her, she would be shut inside our old log house. There would be no escape, and that was the time she longed most for her beloved New York.

Audrey said, Mother would be almost sick with loneliness for the life she used to have so far away.

When Audrey told me I fell asleep with tears wetting my pillow.
