Medical calls creating concerns for rural fire departments By Craig Bakay
ENCHANTé
Reporter
Gazette News – It was a relatively quiet August and September for the Central Frontenac Fire Department, at least in terms of fires. But in terms of ‘medical assist’ calls, the numbers just seem to keep increasing and that’s causing problems for the department, Fire Chief Bill Young told Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. In August, there were six fire calls, compared to 12 medical assist calls. In September, there were two fire calls, compared to four medical assist calls, he said. “The fire calls are down quite a bit from last year,” Young said. “It’s been a good year for us.
Guardian angels for animals Pg. 12
“But we’ve been getting a lot of medical calls, particularly in the Arden area.” One of the reasons for this, he said, is that if there isn’t an ambulance in Parham at the time the call comes in, estimated ambulance response time will likely be more than 15 minutes and so the fire department is dispatched. In addition to fire department staff time and fuel cost, Central Frontenac Fire Department equipment is used, and sometimes that can take time to get returned. For instance, when firefighters are the first responders, patients are often put on stretchers. When paramedics arrive, patients remain on those stretchers so as not to disturb them further, and sometimes it can take awhile to get

those stretchers back. “They use our equipment,” said Coun. Jeff Matson, himself a volunteer firefighter in Arden. “In Arden, we’re often dealing with ambulances out of Lennox & Addington and they’re pretty good about returning equipment. “But when it’s Frontenac County, we have to call down to Chief (Paul) Charbonneau and that often takes time.” “It’s a big draw on our fire halls but we’re not getting any compensation from the County or the Province,” said Coun. Frances Smith. “What would happen if we sent them a bill?” said Coun. Wayne Millar. “I think it’s bigger than that,”
FROM $29.99 5.99% FINANCING 60 MONTH S 1 YEAR WARRANTY INCLUDED
said Smith. “I don’t think we know the actual cost and whether it should go to the Province or the County. “The cost could be astounding.” “We have a lot of money tied up in this equipment and we’re not getting it back,” said Dep. Mayor Tom Dewey. “We’re doing the paramedics’ work.” “Then the paramedics union will step in and say ‘we do those calls,’” said Matson. But Young wasn’t about to get into a turf war on the issue. “When you’re the first responder, you do what you have to do,” Young said. Council passed a motion moved by Smith and seconded by Millar to have staff look into the issue and come back with recommendations.

Lunch4Teens launches in Sydenham mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Gazette events – The old saying goes ‘breakfast is the most important meal of the day’, but what about lunch? Janet Knights thinks that lunch is just as important and is offering high school students in Sydenham the opportunity to have a free lunch once a week. “About two years ago, I thought to myself that the high school needed a free lunch program,” explained Knights. “I found out that they had one at one point and it had been once a month, but it got really complicated and the volunteers were just getting burnt out. They had line ups of 100 students and they couldn’t handle it.” Knights decided that if she was going to restart the program, she would keep it simple. She would also reach out to the community for support. “I decided to do it weekly and keep it very simple. There are two kinds of sandwiches, two soups, cookies and a juice box and that’s it. Students can come, sit and enjoy lunch and then go about their day. I started this and then Joanne Silver had the same idea and we worked to put it all together.” Silver and Knights are members of St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Sydenham, and they approached the church about hosting the lunches. Rev. Giuseppe Gagliano is the newest minister at the church and was immediately on board with the program. “When I first came here and saw the high school next to the church, I thought to myself that it was an excellent opportunity to serve the community,” said Gagliano. “Then I met Janet and she came up to me and immediately mentioned the lunch program. I recently described Janet as heroic in her quest to restart this program. It is difficult to restart something, but I think she has the right spirit, enthusiasm and heart to do it.” While each lunch requires a fair amount of supplies and is therefore relatively costy, Knights
has excellent ideas on how to make these tasks easier. “My idea is to go to businesses and organizations in the area and ask for donations, and if they would like to, they can sponsor a lunch. It costs approximately $150 to put on a single lunch.

Places to explore and things to experience
A winter night’s dream Gazette Lifestyle - It’s been almost two centuries since the birth of a simple fairy tale, which would morph into many families’ favorite Christmas tradition: an outing to The Nutcracker Ballet. In 1816, German romantic author E. T. A. Hoffman published The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. It was later adapted for ballet with music by Tchaikovsky. In the ballet, Klara’s (originally called Marie) favorite toy, the nutcracker, comes alive. After a great battle against the Mouse King and his troops, the nutcracker, who becomes a human prince, transports Klara to a magical world. The production debuted at the Mariinsky Theatre in Russia on Dec. 18, 1892. During the First World War and the Bolshevik Revolution (1917), many dancers left Russia, heading to western Europe and North America. The Nutcracker ballet migrated with them. Walt Disney picked up on the story and used some of the music in Fantasia in 1940. As a result, people became interested in The Nutcracker ballet. In New York City, members of the Russian Imperial Ballet founded the Russian Tea Room in 1927. In an elegant tea room in Manhattan, which still operates as a luxury restaurant, Russian dancers and choreographers first talked to Americans about the beloved Nutcracker
ballet from their homeland. The Russian Tea Room became a second home to dancers, actors, writers and the intellectual elite. An abridged version of The Nutcracker ballet was first performed by the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo in New York City in 1940. The company also introduced neophyte audiences, unfamiliar with classical dance, to ballet in cities and towns across the country. Russian choreographer George Balanchine founded the School of American Ballet and New York City Ballet. The New York company gave its first annual performance of The Nutcracker in 1954. The New York City Ballet still presents the production annually at Lincoln Center, only a few blocks from the tea room where Russian dancers first got together in their new homeland in 1927. In 1957, The Nutcracker Ballet was shown on television. The floodgates opened. Productions were launched by many smaller ballet companies and by the 1960s it was entrenched in the traditions of Christmas around the world. This year, triple threat actor Kiana Gouveia, 16, returns to a Kingston hometown stage to perform with the Ballet Jorgen touring company at the Grand Theatre in December. Triple threat (actor, dancer, singer) performer Kiana Gouveia returns to a Kingston stage to Continued on page 7

“Ballet Jorgen runs a Nutcracker youth education program,” said Melissa Mahaday Wilton, the City of Kingston Dance Engagement Coordinator. “The goal is for young dancers in local communities to have the opportunity to take part in professional auditions and rehearsals and then perform with a professional ballet company when it comes to town. It’s inspiring for kids.” She explained that the auditions were open to any dancers between the ages of 8 and 17. “They look for children with some dance experience and who have strong theatrical and performance skills. Most of the children’s roles involve lots of acting and pantomime.” The actors/dancers auditions are strictly conducted by members of Ballet Jorgen without any local input. “They sent in a rehearsal director,” said Mahady Wilton. “Once auditions were done and the cast was chosen, children went right into rehearsals all day Saturday and again on Sunday.: Since early October, the local cast has been rehearsing for two and a half hours every Saturday. “It’s a lot of responsibility for children,” said Mahady Wilton. “They have to know very specific things about entrances, how to get props to the prop table and where to go for costume changes. Some of the older girls play several roles. Many of them didn’t know each other prior to auditions and they’ve bonded and done a lovely job of looking out for each other. The level of maturity we’re asking of these young children is extraordinary. They have to understand things like blocking that are tricky to teach younger children. They’ve done a fabulous job.”
In addition to being the city’s Dance Engagement Coordinator, Mahady Wilton teaches at the Kingston School of Dance. She said she is pleased that almost every dance school in Kingston is represented in the cast. “That speaks very highly to an enthusiasm for dance and dance training in a small metropolitan centre like Kingston.” She said she’s also thrilled that Kiana Gouveia, a Kingston dancer, is part of the Ballet Jorgen touring company itself. Kiana is now in her fourth year with the professional group, but this will be her first appearance in Kingston since joining the cast. The Ballet Jorgen production features uniquely Canadian motifs. No rats. No costumes from other countries. Instead, the stage is filled with loons, bears, foxes, squirrels, raccoons and other iconic Canadian beasts. As for the Sugar Plum Fairy, in this production she’s Lady Birch. Uncle Drosselmeyer makes no appearance, but a painter–one of the Group of Seven–brings gifts of homemade toys for children at the party. Kiana has been enamored by the Nutcracker since she was a young child. When she was in Grade 7, she played the part of the squirrel in the local cast for the Ballet Jorgen production. “After I played the squirrel, I heard the ballet wouldn’t be back in Kingston the next year,” said Kiana. “I wondered if I could still be involved and found out I could go to Toronto and audition to be part of the touring cast.” She got the role and this is her fourth year as Klara. It’s a grinding schedule. In preparation,
Kiana travels to Toronto twice a week. Rehearsals started in the first week of September. The weekend rehearsals can last up to eight hours. This is in addition to Kiana’s regular dance and theatre involvement in Kingston. “It’s something I always wanted to do, as long as I can remember,” she said. “I always went to see The Nutcracker with my grandma. I hoped that one day I wouldn’t be watching, but would be on the stage. Now that I’m there, being onstage is as magical as watching.” Kiana already has extensive stage credits, ranging from the role of Annie in the local Meistersingers eponymous production to Mirvish’s Railway Children in Toronto. She’s travelled to New York City for intensive training in dance and musical theatre. She has signed with daCosta Talent Management Triple threat (actor, dancer, singer) performer Kiana and has her own agent. She explained that acting and dance Gouveia returns to a Kingston stage to perform as Klara in The Nutcracker Ballet at the Grand Theatre. involve an ongoing learning process.

In Our Opinion
Rob Ford, the more things change . . . Craig Bakay Reporter
editorial@theheritageemc.ca
Gazette Column — It just keeps getting better and better with Toronto Mayor Rob Ford, doesn’t it? Now they’re adding “prostitute in City Hall” to an already lengthy list of no-no’s the Mayor has indulged in during his term in downtown TO. This is not to condone His Worship’s behaviour in any way, shape or form, nor is it to suggest that he should be issued a pass on any of it, only to say that he’s hardly the first. Now if anybody’s expecting names to follow in the next few paragraphs, you’re going to be disappointed — there won’t be any. Similarly, times and places won’t be specific. In order to be privy to some of these goings-on, you kinda have to either a) promise not to tell or b) become an active participant in said behaviour. It’s a fact of life that very few
people live exemplary lives in terms or morality. Just because someone gets elected to political office doesn’t somehow exempt them from all the frailties that flesh is heir to. What it does mean though is that they will have many more opportunities to fail. Such is the nature of the position. People who get into decision-making positions are, by definition, people that someone who wants something will need to influence. Influence can take many forms. Perhaps influence can take the form of a basket of mini-muffins, but very few lobbyists try to find out whether a politician is a whole bran or chocolate chip person before they find out what kind of liquor said politician drinks. Be it a small subdivision in northern Manitoba, or a major waterfront development in Toronto or Halifax, if there are dollars to be made, there is always the potential for palms to be greased, and always there are those who will try. Anyone who’s ever tried to sever a lot to build a place for the kids knows the hoops that have to be jumped through are real things. And the bigger the project, the bigger
Taking on family travel Hollie Pratt-Campbell Assistant Editor

Gazette Editorial - Certain things in life - writing, yoga and being in a relationship, for example - have always come rather easily to me. When I think about any of these things, a sense of calm and comfort falls over me. “I can handle this,” I think with confidence, even when faced with a major challenge. I learned early on that parenting does not fall into the “things that come easily to Hollie category”. I love Summer more than words can describe, but being a mother is something I have to work at. I often feel awkward, unsure of what the best decision is for my little girl. I fumble, and it shows. On top of it all, I am extremely conscious of the judgmental gaze of society, and all those who are oh so ready to tell me Summer is not dressed warmly enough or that I’m not feeding her the right kind of foods. As a result, I make a concerted effort to build my confidence as a parent by doing things that are outside of my comfort zone. The ultimate example of this is our trip to Washington, D.C., which we were able to take, at long last, during the first week of November. When my aunt Michelle first raised the idea of our family visiting her and her
husband, Johannes, in D.C. almost a year ago, my first response was, “No way.” Caring for a child so small just requires too much stuff. We would need to bring a crib, a stroller, a booster seat, toys, diapers and more. Driving there also takes a good eight hours. How would Summer handle that? Would we be subjected to constant wailing? And a whole new set of complications loomed for when we finally arrived. What if she hated being away from home and refused to sleep? Would it even be worth trying to visit all the great museums the city has to offer with a toddler in tow? What if she had a meltdown, or worse, broke something? But I forced myself to try it. Armed with low expectations and an uncharacteristic level of organization, our family gave Washington a shot. As I write this, two days after our return, I can safely say the trip was an excellent experience for all of us. For an 18-month-old, Summer was extremely well-behaved for the vast majority of the time. Despite the fact that the dreaded “fall back” time change happened on the second night of our trip, she slept like a proverbial baby the entire week - much better than she has ever slept at home, as a matter of fact. She loved running around the National Mall and Memorial Parks, and was more than happy to rest in her stroller when it was time to move along. She was reasonably good in the museums, allowing us to take in good portions of the various Smithsonians. In fact, she was downright

and more numerous the hoops. If those hoops can go away with a few bottles of expensive whiskey and a couple of prostitutes, . . . Now, none of this directly pertains to the current Mayor of Toronto, at least that we know of yet, only to say that politics can be a minefield for certain types of personalities. And, it certainly would seem that Rob Ford has the type of personality that will step on every mine. A lot of people though are calling for the Mayor’s head and want him out of office. Under the Municipal Act, removing a mayor from office is a very difficult thing to do, and rightly so. If it were easy to get rid of a mayor, that mayor’s political opponents (not to mention members of the public who think their vote is the most important one out there) would undoubtedly do it at the first opportunity. We’d be having byelections every other month. Ford has said that he’s not going to step down and will be running in the next municipal election in a year’s time. Perhaps the strangest part of all of this is that polls right now suggest he’ll probably win.
awestruck by certain areas of the Natural History Museum and the National Zoo, both of which contained life-sized or real versions of the many animals she’s used to seeing in books. That said, we did have a number of things on our side that many people don’t have access to on trips. We had a condo to stay at that was a short walk from most of the sights. We ate most of our meals there and were able to do laundry onsite. My aunt and uncle were there to help us chase after and entertain Summer - a big deal when you’re caring for an 18-month-old. They also looked after Summer one night while Steve and I went for a grownup dinner, and my aunt took another whole day off to watch her, allowing us to go to some of the more non-baby-friendly museums (the Newseum and the Holocaust Museum – both excellent, by the way). All these things added to our experience, and it probably would have been more stressful had we been staying in a hotel sans family. I realize that many people travel with small children every day and think nothing of it. For me, it was a big deal. Spending a week away with Summer was a gamble that paid off, not only because we were able to have a great vacation, but also because it increased my confidence as a mother. The trip also allowed the three of us the opportunity to bond in new ways. From rolling down the highway together in our car to posing in front of iconic American art and historical sites, our trip to Washington is an event that will go down in our family’s history as a massive success.

8 The Frontenac EMC - Thursday, November 21, 2013
Nothing left to hide? Gazette Editorial - It is hard to look at a newspaper, turn on a television or listen to the radio without hearing something about the now infamous Mayor Rob Ford. Coverage of the Toronto Mayor has even extended to the U.S., with Ford becoming a regular subject on late night talk shows and a favorite among comedians across North America. It is entertaining to watch, but seriously when is enough, enough? I’m sure we don’t need to recap the events that have led up to this point, but maybe just the highlights: Ford has now admitted to smoking crack cocaine and purchasing drugs in the past two years. Videos show him using threatening language and making death threats and multiple people have come forward with other claims of the mayor being inappropriate and using drugs. Ford has said on multiple occasions that he has nothing left to hide, yet new videos and claims keep coming out. What is perhaps most shocking are the multiple unscripted, off the cuff statements that the mayor keeps making to the press. He repeatedly ends up in more hot water every time he addresses the press. Does he even have a PR team anymore? If he does, they must be on their way out the door, because they clearly have no influence on the mayor anymore. It is obvious that the man has a problem, but what is not so obvious is when he will realize that he can’t just apologize and move on. No matter how much he apologizes, it doesn’t erase his past actions, and it also doesn’t stop the police investigation that is ongoing in regards to his behaviour. He can confess all he wants, but until he seeks help and steps away from his role as mayor, none of this circus is going to go away. So the question becomes, where is rock bottom for Rob Ford? Does he need the Province to step in? Does he need council to reject him even more harshly? He has become an embarrassment for the City of Toronto with councilors, sports teams, and even the annual Santa Claus Parade distancing themselves from him, but he still won’t step down. It will be interesting to see what comes next and when it will end. We will certainly be watching, with the rest of the world, to find out.

Future of universe in jeopardy in latest Thor sequel kith are awakened. Malekith will stop at nothing to possess the weapon. To save the Nine Realms and Jane, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) will have to disobey his father and commit treason. Then he’ll have to ask Loki (Tom Hiddleston), the one person he can’t trust, for help. I loved everything about Thor: The Dark World. The scope of the story, the heroes, the villains, the action, the visuals, the cast, everything about it is fantastic. Above everything else though I found it to be an amazing blend of fantasy and science fiction. This is an incredible world of magic and technology, and it’s brought to life so vividly and dramatically you lose yourself in it. It creates amazing story possibilities and breathtaking visuals. Frankly the comic book movie has never looked so good. It seems there are some roles actors are just born to play. I think the fates may have aligned so Chris
Hemsworth could play Thor. He doesn’t just look the part he lives it and breathes it. Jane Foster is nobody’s damsel in distress. Natalie Portman brings a vibrancy and energy to this role that’s dazzling. Her fire and determination easily equal her godly counterpart’s. I love Thor but there’s always been a soft spot in my heart for Loki. He’s a complicated and often misunderstood character. Tom Hiddleston is so good I wouldn’t be surprised if he really was the Norse god of mischief. Where Hemsworth seems born to play the hero Christopher Eccleston seems born to play the villain. His rage and hate are palatable. He is exactly the kind of villain you want to see battling the god of thunder. When your hero is a god you don’t want to see him stopping bank robbers. You want him battling the forces of evil with the fate of the universe at stake. That’s what Thor The Dark World is, and it’s awesome. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of the EMC.

Crow Lake residents still concerned about traffic issues in hamlet Reporter
Gazette News — “We come as members of the Crow Lake community and would like to know what’s been done on behalf of Central Frontenac Township to slow traffic on the narrow road through the hamlet,” Karen Lahey asked Central Frontenac Township at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. Lahey, who recently purchased the Oaks Cottages with her husband, Dan, and a group from the hamlet were at a Council meeting in June voicing similar concerns, but as yet traffic hasn’t noticeably been slowed, she said. “Although there had been an increase in police presence earlier in the summer, there continues to be little or no regard to the
posted speed limit of 40 kph, which includes Central Frontenac Township vehicles, postal workers, school buses and private vehicles,” she said. “There are other very large trucks using that road, taking up not only their lane, but encroaching on the lane going in the opposite direction. “I feel it is only a matter of time before a fatality occurs as a result.” She said there are only two signs indicating the 40 kph limit. “We were told by Mr. (Public Works Manager Mike) Richardson that a lower limit of 25 kph wouldn’t be happening,” she said. “But we also requested a newer, brighter, more visible sign indicating a playground where children are at play as the old one is faded.” She said there are a number
of ‘hidden’ driveways, including her own, that she’d like to see indicated by signage. “We have a driveway that is hidden from view because of a turn in the road east of the Oaks Cottages,” she said. “We feel that there is a danger for us and our visitors/clients every time one has to back out of our driveway or even enter the driveway in reverse. “Can there be a ‘Caution: Hidden Driveway Ahead’ sign placed before the rock cut so that at least there is some warning about vehicles backing or driving out ahead?” She was also concerned about erosion on the banks because of “cascading of water during
heavy rains” and asked if guardrails could be replaced. “Between our place at 2020 Crow Lake Road and 1981 Crow Lake Road, there is a very narrow shoulder and steep drop,” she said. “We realize you have a lot to do but we’d also like to ask for guardrails.” “If you put guardrails in there, are you not making the road even narrower?” said Coun. Frances Smith. “I’m also wondering what effect that might have on snow

Enchanting and fascinating people….and their world
Guardian angels for animals Gazette Lifestyle - Melissa and Scott Green gave their daughter an early Christmas gift of life on Thanksgiving weekend. His name is Orion and he’s a six year old horse. Destined for slaughter, Orion caught the Greens’ attention when they saw an advertisement from a horse rescue group. “I thought there can’t be that many horses going to slaughter,” said Melissa. “I did some research and found out that last year more than 82,000 horses from Ontario
R0012246822
went to slaughter. They’re sent overseas as food.” This year, there’ll be one less horse heading that way. Brianna Green, 11, has been riding since she was six years old. On Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend, her parents took her to Dreamcatcher Farm for her usual riding lesson. They truthfully told her she wouldn’t be riding her regular pony. What they didn’t tell her was that she’d be getting her own horse. Upon arrival, the bond between horse and mistress looked 649 Justus Dr instant.

bond going. He follows her around and comes to her at the side of the field when he sees her.” Orion now has a lot of years ahead of him. His purchase from a meat dealer was facilitated through Partners for Essential Equine Rescue (PEER), a horse rescue group. There are similar stories for dogs. Christine Mandy has fostered about 30 dogs since 2006. She’s also adopted a few along the way. “Some fosters have been for a night or two, and the longest was for a year,” she said. It’s an area where “failure” is a good word, she explained. She laughed when explaining what “foster failure” means. “That’s when the foster situation turns into an adoption.” She has seven dogs of her own, four of them rescues, including three from a Chesapeake Bay retriever rescue group. Her most recent rescue was a Jack Russell terrier. The wee thing was found abandoned on Perth Road, left to die on a cold winter’s day in February.

Gazette news- Frontenac Island’s Noise By Law was among the first of many items dealt with (not necessarily resolved) at the November meeting of council. WI resident Ken Keyes reminded council that a proposed change to the bylaw ( suggested in October) would limit the sound level to 85(db) decibels emitted 20 metres from source for a continuous period of 5 minutes and is of concern to Annette and Garry Trahan who live next door to the WI Grill where music is an important part of the business. As it turns out 85 db’s is in the danger zone and requires hearing protection (Ministry of Labour stats) according to Keyes. The Trahan’s are looking for no change to the original by law, or the addition of a section from an Ottawa by law that specifies “times and reasonable decibel levels (45 to 55 db a ). “ On hand was Dr. Paul Carr, (Cornell U) an island land owner, who spoke to the issue on behalf of the Trahan’s, and using decibel metres and a stereo demonstrated the very sensitive sound levels “If you go from 40 decibels to 50, that’s 10 times louder. From 50 to 60 that too is 10 times louder but 100 times louder than 40. Its not arrythmic.” He recommended the Ottawa by law as a model for the township. Casey Fisher owner of the WI Grill said he had begun to make a number of changes within the premises but based on the discussions wonders how it will all work out. At the end of it all there was no firm agreement on what was a reasonable db, or to amend the by law. Council will “take their time to get the right number up or down” and Casey will determine how to get there… 2. WI resident Danielle Hogan came forward to present a request for for a dedication of a potion of Road #95 or the Community Centre or some other means of Honouring the late Timothy O’Shea. O’Shea, the long time Reeve of Wolfe Island (33 years) and Warden of the County was her husband Dan Hogan’s grandfather. During his tenure his accomplishments as a member of Council (1953), and as Reeve included the ferry take over by province, a ferry to Simcoe, a fire hall , a municipal garage, dump, medical clinic, library, and more …Danielle asked Council to consider honouring “Tim O’Shea a wonderful man” for his many accomplishments and for the benefit of future generations and island history. … Many questions arose.. Is there a policy and procedure for this? How about a plaque with some
history at the library ?… at the Community Garden ? Medical Clinic? Staff will look at Library and other possible options… 3. Historical Society ‘s Dennis Chercuitte received permission to install the rock and plaque identifying the location of SS School #4. 4. Brian MacDonald , a member of Simcoe Island’s 9 Mile Point Light House Preservation Society came forward with their request that Frontenac Islands Township partner with them to save the historic lighthouse. built in 1833 (fog alarm bldg. etc). They have submitted a business Plan under the provisions of the Heritasge Lighthouse protection Act as required but to have it accepted they need the Township to acknowledge that it willpartner with them as registered owner and insurer of the property and buildings. The Society will assume fund raising and grant searches for operational costs , (maintenance of building and grounds, etc.) and other requirements. They will ask that all environmental issues that may surround the building and property are dealt with and that it meet standards before it is taken over. During discussion it was pointed out that the township will have to have cost estimates pertaining to everything that relates to the Light House (building, ground maintenance) so that they can begin budgeting for what is required of them now and in the future, in the event of further involvement or complete takeover. Council also requested a copy of the Business Plan submitted as a requirement of the Federal Act. Council wondered aloud whether the Light House should come under the the WI Historical Society’s umbrella? All this to be determined. FYI- For Your Information: MTO is looking at ways to make things better for the Dangerous Goods ferry situation , that happens on Tuesdays and Friday’s, according to Mayor Doyle . The days may become Tuesday’s and THURSDAY’S instead. Also, the Tuesday return trip to Kingston may become 11 am instead of 2:30 pm. At this time, these are possible options only. As well , it may become possible to allow an established number of vehicles and/or people on the trips back to the city from Wolfe Island.. MTO is working on a procedure with DOT, as to how or if this can be done.. There was more under other business but No room this time.

Enchanting and fascinating people….and their world
Mark Bergin
Guardian angels for animals owners divorced. They sold their home and on moving day the new owners found the divorced owners’ nine-yearold Chesapeake Bay retriever in the yard. They’d just left their dog behind. “The people who bought the house contacted the previous owners and told them their dog was in the yard,” said Mandy. “The dog’s owners said, ‘If you don’t want her, euthanize her.’” The new owners thankfully took steps to save the dog, and she ended up in the Quinte animal shelter. Christine Mandy took Sadie in. That was her first rescue dog. “She was an awesome dog,” said Mandy. “I lost her just after her 14th birthday so she was with us for almost five years.” If you’re interested in adopting a dog, Mandy said a good place to start is petfinder.com. She said that “Dogs in Canada” magazine has a rescue section in the back of their publication. She cautions people about getting a dog through Kijiji, especially now that Kingston has passed a law against dogs and cats being sold in pet stores. “There are still puppy mills around,” she said. “A lot of them sell through Kijiji.” To be safe, she explained, go and see where the dog is living. What are the conditions and how is it cared for? You’ll weed out puppy mills quickly that way.
Continued from page 12
The puppy had been abandoned with a broken leg. “Because he’d been in a car accident, the girls at the clinic named him Fender Bender. He was with us about eight or nine months.” They tried an adoptive home but it didn’t work out. Christine Mandy took him back into her home. But this smart little beagle did what beagles do: he followed his nose. He loved to get out of the yard and wander the neighborhood. Sniffing. That gave his foster mom an idea. She contacted Canada Border Services. They sent someone to test the dog. He did so well that he was accepted into the agency’s detector dog program. Fender now works at Vancouver International Airport as a “sniffer” dog, detecting things illegal. To serve, protect and wag his tail. Mandy said many dogs are looking for homes. “Without fostering, the majority of them would be euthanized. Fostering gives dogs a second chance at life. Thankfully, now that there’s a bylaw to stop the sale of dogs and cats in pet stores, that will cut down on this kind of purchase. The majority of pet
store sales are whim purchases. And the majority of dogs in pet stores come from puppy mills. Quite often with small breeds, you can end up with a lot of medical expenses.” Besides getting tired of their whim purchases, she said there are other reasons people abandon their pets. “People have dogs and then have children and don’t have time for the dog. Another reason for dogs losing their home is quite sad. An elderly person dies and the family is not willing or able to take in the dog. If the owner has not made arrangements for their dog, it ends up in a shelter.” Rescuing, explained Mandy, is a rewarding experience. “You take these dogs and give them a chance. And the rewards, every dog gives you unconditional love. You know in your heart you’ve done something good. Every time you rescue a dog, you save a life.” For more information about fostering or adopting: check out Partners for Essential Equine Rescue on Facebook and Blogspot; for animal rescue, check out animals at petfinder. com; the Humane Society International site is www.hsi.org.
R0012424218
contacted, the elderly dog was scheduled to be euthanized the following day. Who wants a sick old dog? Thankfully, Christine did. “The day she would have been euthanized was two years to the day since I’d lost my first rescue, a Chesapeake. I thought, let’s bring her home and make her last days comfortable. We called her Tyme because she was living on borrowed time. I guess we did a good job. She’s quite a healthy little dog now.” Tyme put on weight and goes for long walks with Mandy’s other dogs. Sadly, explained Mandy, it’s not unusual for people to drive their dog out to the middle of nowhere and let it go. This gets my Irish up. Want to see me angry or far beyond angry? Hurt an animal. Such stories are far too common. She said Humane Society International does a lot of good work in dealing with puppy mills in Quebec, including a recent seizure of 80 huskies and shepherd/huskies from a Quebec site. Included in the seizure were 30 puppies. “We now have to find homes for these dogs,” she said. She told me another story about a Chesapeake Bay retriever whose
“It floors me the number of people who don’t know what a puppy mill is,” she said. “Even really smart people purchase dogs off Kijiji without checking out the source. A lot of small dogs from puppy mills have luxating patella. The surgery for that can be a couple of thousand dollars per knee. People adopting a dog have to make a financial commitment too.” She said sometimes people try to get a rescue animal because they want a free dog. “There’s no such thing as a free dog,” she said. “People have to make a financial commitment to care for their dog. They also have to make an emotional commitment. A dog is a lifelong commitment. You can’t just keep it until you’re tired of it. It’s not a fad. When you take in a dog, it’s got to be part of your family. You have to care for the dog’s mental and physical wellbeing. They need stimulation. Without exercise, a dog will act up. You have to train them and exercise them. It’s not rocket science.” Despite the horror stories that Christine Mandy can recount, there are also many successes. She fostered a beagle a few years back. “He was the cutest, most obnoxious little dog,” she said.

Wreath of waxed leaves brought a bit of joy for Mother Lifestyle - Where Mother got the idea, no one knew. It certainly wasn’t from Aunt Bertha on the next farm. She was far too practical to do something
that took a lot of time and really didn’t amount to a hill of beans when it came to keeping food on the table. No, my sister Audrey said it was probably something she picked up when she lived in New York. Father of course, said
he never “heard” of anything so crazy in his whole life! Fall had settled in, and with the blasts of cold winter already closing in around us, but snow yet to come, Mother decided she would do something to keep the
season alive as long as she could. The lawn at the side of the house still had plenty of fallen maple Mary Cook leaves on the ground, and Mother thought it would give a nice Columnist touch to the table at meal times if editorial@theheritageemc.ca she could just bring a bit of those rich fall colours indoors. She was going to wax the leaves, and place them on a lace doily all around the spoon holder and the sugar bowl. A small honey pail held all the pieces of wax that came off the top of the preserve and pickle jars once they were opened, and Mother would use it instead of buying a whole box of wax at Briscoe’s General Store. That alone should have impressed Father, but it did nothing of the sort. He still thought waxing leaves was right up there with trying to nurse Paderno Great geraniums through the Factory winter once they had lost Stocking their bloom, which Mother Sale Stuffers was prone to do. But Mother paid him no heed. It was on a Saturday that cold fall day when she sent Audrey and me out to the yard. We were to bring in Free only those leaves which Gourmet were perfectly formed, didn’t have a break in Food them, or a mark on them, Sampling and were to be the largest and reddest we could find. We shoved the fallen leaves around the ground Many with the toes of our boots In-Store and ever so carefully gathls ia c Spe ered those we thought were exactly what Mother had Lots of s y a asked for. w a e Giv Musical Mother had given us a breadbasket to bring them performances in, and she told us over and over again to handle them by very carefully, laying one on top of the other so they wouldn’t break. While Audrey and I were out in the yard pick• Beautiful jewellery and accessories • Huge selection of Ariat western boots and ing through the leaves, which by that time in the clothing for Guys and Gals! • Anuschka handbags fall were wet and soggy, • Breyer Horses and toys for the little ones Mother was in the kitchen • Ladies clothing by Michael Kors, melting the wax from the • Delicious gourmet jams, dips and cheese Joseph Ribkoff, Parhurst, Tribal, tops of the opened pickle Point Zero and more! and preserves jars on the • Handmade candy canes Findlay Oval. • Mens clothing by Woolrich, Ariat, • Kitchenwares, Linens, and Furniture She had spread out pages of the Renfrew MerTilley and Point Zero • Lots of holiday home decor cury on the bake table, and Audrey and I were told to very, very carefully, lay out the leaves, making sure featuring cozy sheepskin Uggs, Hunter Boots, Bogs, Clark’s, Blundstones and many more… they were placed gently on the tea towel.

bottom, dabbed the leaves with a tea towel. She brought the pot over to the bake table and, picking up a leaf at a time by its stem, dipped it carefully into the melted wax. The leaf was then put onto yet another tea towel where Mother said anyone who touched it would do so at their own peril! Father came in for his supper, glanced at the waxed leaves, shook his head, and headed for the wash basin. Not a word was mentioned about the waxed leaves over supper. But Mother rushed us through ‘redding’ up the kitchen that night and had Audrey wipe the red-checkered oilcloth twice to make sure it was good and dry. She then carefully, making a circle around the sugar bowl and spoon holder, laid out the waxed leaves. She overlapped them and Audrey and I thought we had the cleverest mother in all of Renfrew County! With the simple placing of waxed leaves, Mother had turned our plain old table into something grand. Father complained there was no place to put the coal oil lamp. Mother settled that by pulling down the Coleman lamp that hung over the table and was used only when we had company, as the fragile wicks cost a whole dime at Briscoe’s General Store. Of course, any wax that was left over was put aside to set, and then cut into blocks and again stored in the little honey pail to use when Mother again put down preserves and pickles. Nothing was wasted. Audrey and I thought the leaf display was lovely. And it stayed on the table for the whole week. Audrey said it was the steady throbbing heat of the Findlay Oval, Father said they had just died a natural death, but by the next Saturday, the leaves had started to curl and after Emerson dropped several spoons from the spoon holder, he said accidently, the leaves started to look the worst for wear. It was with great reluctance the next Saturday morning, what was left of the leaves was gathered up and tossed into the cook stove. Father said it was time. After all, that night it was our turn to host the Saturday night house party, and the old pine table was needed for euchre. A red geranium, which had seen better days, took the place of the wreath of wax leaves. It, and the waxed leaves, was Mother’s way of trying desperately to bring a bit of cheer to an old log house that for generations had known nothing more than a life lived in the simplest of ways.

Birthdays, ice cream cake and fat lips
Heritage Lifestyle - My daughter was in the store. I locked the car door and managed to finalize details for her birthday. She knocked on the window, puzzled at my behavior, as I whispered to the person on the phone that I needed the cake to be vanilla, but chocolate too and lots of it. It’s a challenge, organizing the perfect birthday celebration. Whether it’s your child’s first birthday or sweet 16, a friend’s 40th or a relative’s 80th, the devil is in the detail. My daughter shares a birthday with my best friend. They like to co-celebrate each year and this would be no exception. Their birthdays are three days and some years apart. (I would get in trouble if I divulged just how many.) Last year, during take your kid to work day, my daughter wanted to go to work with my bestie. That’s the way it rolls. Sometimes, I catch them talking about me. I have to remind my daughter that my friend is my best friend and not hers. But, I couldn’t be happier that two of my most favorite people love each other as much as I love them. The combined parties are fun, even more so now that my daughter is 15. No more loot bags and kids activities to plan. A quiet dinner with friends and family suffices. And a shared cake, of course. They both requested an ice cream cake. I’ve been baking cakes from scratch for years. The ease of picking up an ice cream version was readily in my grasp. Thankfully, Marble Slab Creamery al-
lows you to individualize the cake, making it feel special and unique, which was what was required given one loves chocolate and the other prefers vanilla. Marble Slab has two locations, 2376 Princess Street, next to Chapters, and 27 Princess Street. Both use real Canadian dairy. Everything is made onsite, from the ice cream, to the freshly baked hand rolled cones. The concept is that you choose from one of the 50 flavours of ice cream on offer, then select a mixing of fruit, nuts, candies, chocolates and even cookies to personalize your treat. You can choose as many as you like and it’s blended with your slab of ice cream to make your own signature flavor. Their cakes are no different. You can start with one flavour or two layers of ice cream, and add your choice of candies and fruit and create the perfect cake to your liking. They even have a flavour called birthday cake, which tastes like vanilla cake with sprinkles. The staff was very flexible as I explained all the preferences I needed to please two of my most favorite people. Even as I whispered into the phone and my daughter knocked increasingly loudly on the car window, wanting me to let her in. They laughed along with me. The final version was a vanilla cookie dough cake with a slather of chocolate draped over it, decorated with fresh whipped cream, cookie dough balls and gummy bears. It was delicious! The day of the party arrived. I struggled to pack all the supplies, which in-
cluded the cake and balloons from Send In the Clowns, into the car. Did you know that Send in The Clowns is one of the few places that still blow up balloons and prepare them ahead for you ahead of time? They even have a special application that is used to enhance the life of the helium balloon for up to three days. My friend’s son loves balloons. He is two and soon as he sees them he has to have one. I scattered them about to make the room appear festive. No huge celebration, I was warned, because when you are fifteen and going on…(well, we won’t say how old my friend turned) the cause for celebration is generally a lowkey affair. Personally, I totally disagree, but hey, when it’s your birthday you get what you want. The cake was a hit. The balloons rested high above the table, unless otherwise wrangled to the floor by tiny child. The teens decided a game of manhunt was in order. We adults hunkered down by the fire. In case you aren’t aware, manhunt, as it is commonly called today, is basically hide and seek. I’m not sure why the name changed. Anyhow, the kids dressed up in warm clothes, grabbed flashlights, I shouted rules… “stay with a buddy and don’t go beyond the fence”. We have 12 acres and live on a dead end street. It’s got to be the least dangerous place in town. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Truthfully, manhunt at night frightens me, but I reasoned with myself. The
moon and stars light up the entire sky, not to mention they each had a flashlight. Being the parent of a new 15 year old, with so many advisors telling me you can’t wrap your kids up cotton wool forever, I sent them out the door with the parting words, “last man out is IT.” A half hour later, a kid came through the door. “I think I’m hurt,” he said. He looked like he had wrestled a bear, which I knew was impossible because all we had were cows hanging about. The mothers in the room huddled around, while his parents led him away, iced the wound and cleaned him up. Thankfully, his mother and father were onsite and took him to emergency for confirmation he was okay. The hospital glued him up (they no longer stitch) and he returned with a fat lip, looking cooler than ever. I miss the birthday mishaps of the past that involved someone getting hit by a bat after junior missed the piñata or a pin accidentally being stuck in someone’s head during a tumultuous game of pin the tail on the donkey. Things change. Kids grow up into amazing young people. Friends age gracefully alongside us. I am saddened by the idea that my birthday cakes from scratch days may be behind me. But, I will never grow tired of party games gone wrong.

Watching European grape harvest is fascinating By Jeff Maguire Columnist
Lifestyle – Our travels this fall took us to two of the Top 10 wine producing nations in the world. For the first time in our lives we were in Europe at the height of the grape harvest. What an interesting experience it was! Before offering some details of what we saw in France and Germany in October I will write a little about how much access to wines from around the world has improved in this country. At one time in Canada, or certainly in Ontario at least, it was difficult to be a “wine connoisseur”. That’s because the availability of the world’s best wines was limited. I can remember the days when the
Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) had small outlets and in most communities customers had no direct access to any of the products they sold. Instead you went to the local LCBO and studied a list of the available products which was inscribed on tablets above a counter containing pads and pencils. You then had to write down the number(s) which corresponded with what you wanted to purchase (wine or spirits) and hand that to a clerk. In turn the employee would disappear into the storeroom at the back of the outlet, retrieve the items you selected and then ring them up at the cash register. There was no opportunity to pick up and study the available bottles of wine or liquor and decide what appealed to you. Talk to anyone who grew up in the
1950s, ‘60s or ‘70s and I’m sure they will laugh when you talk to them about the sequence which unfolded when we went to the liquor store. When it came to wine, for example, the majority of people had no idea what to look for and therefore it was a crap shoot, so to speak. You would buy a particular product and hope for the best. No Internet information to fall back on in those days! As a result most people didn’t have a clue about which wines were good and which were bad. Little wonder most folks’ early experience with wine in Ontario included products such as ‘Baby Duck’, ‘Baby Bear’ or some other “cuddly sounding” product. Don’t get me wrong. I am not knocking items that were once the toast of the Canadian wine industry. But at the time a lot of what was available here was fizzy, sweet tipple that I think was made in hopes of imitating Mateus, a rosé from Portugal. Mateus by the way was first manufactured in 1942 and is still available, in red and white versions. I think it’s safe to say that years ago it was difficult to have an appreciation for good wine because most of us simply weren’t exposed to the best. My, how times have changed! The LCBO is now the biggest importer of wine and spirits in the world. Yes, No. 1 on the planet! Canadians in general have unlimited access to wine and interest has never been higher. Now many Canadians are focused on vintage product which simply wasn’t available previously. Rising fortunes Of course the Canadian wine industry is also on the upswing. The Niagara Region and areas of
southern British Columbia, in particular, are becoming more and more prominent, especially in terms of the quality of their wines. Of course we are not among the world’s big players. Canada’s population is too small. In 2011 we were listed 31st and 42nd in the world in terms of the volume of wine produced on two websites I read before writing this week’s column. The world numbers in general are inconsistent by the way. Evidently there is some jockeying between France and Italy in terms of which country tops the annual wine production list globally. Based on what I have discovered it is between those two countries. Sometimes Italy comes out on top and other years it is France. Most recently Italy, which is responsible for making approximately one-fifth of the world’s wine supply, appears to be the leader. The Top 10 wine producing nations is consistent but the order is not. Spain, Argentina and the United States are among the leaders. Germany is ranked as high as fourth on some lists, but never lower than 10th. Also among the leaders are China, South Africa, Australia and Chile. There is a difference between the amount of grapes grown and the volume of wine produced. Obviously other products, including nonalcoholic juice, are manufactured using grapes. When you visit the Alsace region of northeast France and the Baden district of southwest Germany, which includes the picturesque Black Forest, you are left in little doubt as to the value of grape growing. We toured both areas in October and with the grape harvest in full swing it was incredible to witness the impact grapes have on both nation’s economies. Mechanical harvesting has arrived but with many of the vineyards located on steep hillsides, people power is still a big part of the annual harvest. Machines skim off the largest bunches but leave the smaller grapes. Human hands do the rest, carefully clipping the stems and depositing the grapes in baskets which are then added to larger vessels. Overall, the task is huge! In the Alsace grape vines stretch from horizon to horizon, over hill and dale, literally. The vines climb the hillsides. They run right into the towns and villages. Every square centimetre of available space is used. That’s how valuable grapes are! Touring in the Alsace we stopped in the village of Barr, Bas Rhin (Bas Rhin means “Lower Rhine”). We followed the winery signage in Barr and ended up strolling into an ancient, cobblestone courtyard. There seemed to be no one around. After a few minutes a window above

suddenly opened. An elderly lady wearing a friendly smile stuck her head out. “Bonjour,” she said, before asking if we were there for a tasting. We said we were. She promptly appeared in the courtyard and led us into a wine cellar which, despite being musty smelling, was just an incredible place to visit. The winery buildings had clearly stood for hundreds of years. The dark wine cellar was filled with huge barrels of the family’s own product. We asked to sample a Riesling, a white wine the region is famous for. She also brought out a bottle she said was a rosé. I thought it tasted more like a Cabernet Franc, light in colouring but tart and dry on the tongue. It was nice. The Riesling was fantastic. When we left we had each (both couples) purchased a bottle of the white wine. It was a 2007 and cost us all of €5 (about $8 CDN). At a Canadian winery we would have shelled out more than twice that much. Our bottle disappeared so fast at the family Thanksgiving celebration that I barely had a taste! Later that day, in the same area, we stopped to watch foreign workers harvest grapes on a hillside. The ruins of what was once a small chapel stood nearby. I took many photographs of the operation. On reflection they look like they could have been shot 50 years ago. The fall grape harvest in the Alsace continues the same way it has for centuries. The situation in Germany is virtually identical. The only difference is the Black Forest is more picturesque. Germany is undoubtedly most famous for its beer. But the wine produced in the Baden region is, as they say in Germany, “wunderbar” (wonderful). The magical village of Gengenbach where we stayed for eight days is surrounded by vineyards. The local “Gengenbacher” wines are superb. I prefer red wine and I particularly enjoyed their “Spätburgunder Rotwein” (red wine made from pinot noir grapes). In fact I enjoyed it every day we were there. I also like their prices. You can buy a 750 millilitre bottle of wine in Germany for as little as €3 ($4.80 CDN). And that’s for a four or five-year-old vintage! Not surprisingly the amount and the variety of wine (including many bottle sizes) available in supermarkets in Germany and France is vast. Without the intrusion of constant government tax hikes the prices are low. Obviously drinking responsibly is very important and, despite more liberal attitudes toward alcohol in Europe, binge drinking remains a serious problem. Wine is meant to be savoured and enjoyed in moderation. We did just that during our latest European adventure. For me, witnessing the grape harvest there was a major highlight.
1952 Morris station wagon seen in Ottawa Gazette Lifestyle – This column recently featured a 1960 Morris Minor convertible owned for 30 years by Elizabeth Spratt of Dundas, Ontario. That story prompted an email from Abe Jacob, also of Dundas: “Hi Bill, I found your story about the Morris Minor very interesting. I just saw one in Ottawa in my daughter’s neighbourhood, a 1952 station wagon with the wooden exterior frame still with 2-part windshield but already 4-speed gear, in amazing shape! This car was of similar
quantity and popularity as the VW Bug, Citroen Deux Chevaux, and Renault Quatre Chevaux of the 1950s to 1970s. “The Morris was popular in many countries previously under British occupation in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia until the German and, later, Japanese cars took over. In my childhood in Haifa, Israel, two neighbour ladies from Rhodesia (Zimbabwe now) who immigrated to Israel, came with a new Morris Minor station wagon (also with wooden covered frame
outside), by driving loaded with baggage from Salisbury (Harare) to Mombasa in Kenya (2,700 km), all on East African roads and no roads and then by ship to Eliat on the Red Sea. They made it safe and sound!” Virtually identical to the 1960 model driven by the two women from East Africa is the 1961 Morris Minor station wagon seen here and owned by Danny Bateman of Leamington, Ontario, in the 1960s. Note the curved one-piece windshield. Whenever Danny tried to pass a big truck on Hwy. 401, he had to keep the gas pedal to the floor and often got only as far as the truck driver’s door before having to fall back for lack of power. Mike Filey, author of many books on the history of To-
ronto, reports that his first car was a 1949 Morris Minor “with one option, a heater, the fan of which was under the passenger’s seat. Turn the device on and the person sitting beside me would rise two or three inches. The car also had mechanical brakes, a set of flipper directional signals, and was constantly infused with a not totally objectionable (at least not to me) aroma of burning oil.” The car was maroon. Mike mixed several cans of paint to achieve a unique turquoise colour which he applied, starting at the front. He ran out of paint before reaching the rear and pushed the
paint the rest of the way by hand. If the owner of the 1952 Morris Minor station wagon seen recently in Ottawa is reading this, please get in touch. We would love to feature your car in this column! I’m always looking for more stories. Email billtsherk@sympatico.ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, ON N8H 3W2. Everyone whose story is published in this column will receive a free autographed copy of my latest book: “OLD CAR DETECTIVE FAVOURITE STORIES, 1925 to 1965.”

Changes to policing costs could end up being an issue for Central Frontenac By Craig Bakay Reporter
Gazette News — The Ontario Provincial Police are looking at changing the way they charge municipalities for policing and the results may not bode well for Central Frontenac, Treasurer Michael McGovern told Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. “They’re looking at standardizing billing,” he said. “Right now, the cost per resident ranges from $100 to $900 per resident, based on the amount of crime and some other factors. “They’re proposing a standardized rate at $260 per resident plus other costs that could take it up to the $400 to $500 per resident range. “In 2012, we were paying $180 per resident.” “They should have to look at ability to pay,” said Coun. Frances Smith. “What they’re proposing would be a big hit on the tax bill and we can’t raise taxes by that much just to pay for policing.” “It may well be a service that will just have to be provided by the Province,” said CAO/Clerk Larry
Donaldson. “We may have to look at some sort of regional force, such as they did in York and Durham,” said Dep. Mayor Tom Dewey. McGovern is scheduled to attend more meetings with the OPP before the new pricing structure is presented in 2015. ••• A new item has been added to the regular business report that CAO/ Clerk Larry Donaldson presents to Central Frontenac Council at its regular meetings. “We’ve added the 2014 election,” Donaldson said. “Candidates can begin to register Jan. 1, 2014 and things will start to ramp up in October.” ••• Central Frontenac Township CAO/ Clerk Larry Donaldson presented the 206-page Service Delivery Review Report from KPMG for “final approval” at last week’s regular Council meeting in Sharbot Lake and it was accepted without issue or discussion. The report, which covers all aspects
of Central Frontenac Township activities such as roads, waste disposal and fire services, is available on the Township website under Council Agendas - Nov. 12, 2013. ••• Central Frontenac Council accepted the Sharbot Lake Farmers Market without issue or discussion at its regular meeting last week. The surprisingly in-depth and lengthy report covers every conceivable aspect of the Market’s operation for 2013 and is available on the Township website under CouncilAgendas - Nov. 12, 2013. “The third season of the summer market was very successful, with growth in customer traffic and vendor proceeds,” the report begins. The report also contains an income and expenses report, as well as a “mini-chamber-of-commerce” section outlining how the information kiosk regularly fields questions like where the dumps are, where local restaurants are, where the grocery and liquor stores are and the location of ATM machines.” “We went over to the school today and picked up all of the sandwiches and soup. It takes a lot of hassle away from us. It was a huge weight lifted from my shoulders,” said

Knights. “Now we just need more volunteers. Monetary donations are good too, but we need some volunteers that are reliable and willing to help every once in a while. I don’t need a weekly commitment, but maybe once a month. The more people we have volunteering the less we need on a weekly basis.” Knights has also reached out to local Sydenham celebrities Dan Akroyd and Doug Gilmour for their support and both have tentatively agreed to help out with fundraising for future lunches. Lunches are held on Tuesdays
from 12:35 to 1:35 p.m. at St. Paul’s Anglican Church on Mill Street, with enough food to serve 50 students. Knights hopes that students will come out and take advantage of the service. “I would encourage students to come out to be part of the community and it gives them a chance to see what the community can do for them and then maybe they can do something in return.” For information on how to sponsor a lunch, donate or volunteer email Janet Knights at jlknights777@hotmail. com or call her at 613.376.6948.

Emphasize safety when decorating for the holidays Decking the halls for the holidays is a beloved tradition for many families. A home’s exterior festooned with lights help create a festive holiday mood, while stockings hung by the chimney and a Christmas tree in the living room bring that holiday cheer inside. Though the holiday season is a festive time of year, it can quickly turn tragic if revelers do not emphasize safety when decorating their homes. When decorating this holiday season, be sure to employ the following precautions so your holiday season is festive, decorative and safe. * Exercise extreme caution with holiday lights. According to the Electrical Safety Foundation International, 150 home fires per year begin with holiday lights and
other decorative lighting. Such fires may start because of frayed or bare wires, broken or cracked sockets or even loose connections. It’s important that men and women be especially careful when decorating their homes with holiday lights, inspecting each set of lights for damage and discarding any damaged sets. When choosing lights, use only lights that have been certified for outdoor use on your home’s exterior, and never use outdoor lights inside. * Purchase the right Christmas tree. The Consumer Product Safety Commission notes that Christmas trees are involved in hundreds of fires causing an average of 15 deaths each year. In addition, such fires cause an average of $13 million in property damage annually. Though it can be tempting to purchase the most
eye-catching Christmas tree you find, avoid acting rashly until you have learned a little about the tree. Artificial trees should be labeled as “Fire Resistant.” Such trees can still catch fire, but they are more resistant to fire than trees without such labels. When buying a live tree, make sure the tree is fresh. The tree should be green, and its needles should be difficult to pull off of branches, which should not be easily breakable. Tap the tree on the ground before purchasing it. If the tree loses a lot of needles upon tapping the ground, it isn’t fresh. Trees that aren’t fresh are more susceptible to going up in flames. * Keep the tree away from heat sources. Though it might seem more idyllic to place your Christmas tree next to the fireplace, it’s a lot more dangerous as well. When choosing a spot for your tree, find a place that is away from heat sources like fireplaces, radiators and vents. But homeowners also should know that even trees placed away from heat sources can still dry out, creating a fire hazard even if the tree was fresh and healthy when purchased. That’s because Christmas trees can quickly dry out in heated rooms. Monitor
the tree’s water levels every day, checking those levels in both the morning and at night before going to bed. This prevents the tree from drying out and becoming a fire hazard, and it also helps the tree maintain its aesthetic appeal through the holiday season.
might want to decorate with fake LED-light candles instead of traditional candles. Curious kids or excitable pets may not recognize the potential dangers of lit candles and, as a result, might burn themselves or tips candles over.
* Limit use of candles. Like The holiday season is upon Christmas trees, candles are a us, and that means scores of popular yet potentially hazardous celebrants will be decking their decorative item during the holiday halls. Though festive decorations season. When decorating with are a part of the season, safety candles, be sure that all candles should always come first. are extinguished before leaving a room and never leave them burning when you go to bed. Candles should be kept away from any decorative items, including Christmas trees, that can catch fire.

Pets for those with allergies People with allergies must learn to make certain concessions. This typically includes avoiding those things, including animals, that can trigger an allergic reaction. Individuals who tear up or start to sneeze around animals may wonder if there are any animals that won’t trigger such reactions. Despite information to the contrary, there really are no such things as hypoallergenic dogs and other pets. Certain breeders may advertise hypoallergenic pets, but it is impossible to produce an animal that is safe for all. That’s because many animal allergies result from pet dander, which are the skin flakes from an animal’s fur or hair, and not the fur of the pet. According to
the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, people with pet allergies have supersensitive immune systems that react to harmless proteins in the pet’s dander. Some people are allergic to saliva from dogs and cats, or may have allergies to the sebum, or oils, in their skin. Although there are no guarantees that pets won’t trigger allergic reactions, certain animals could be a bit more friendly to those who are generally intolerant to animals. Dogs * Portuguese water dog: This breed is active and has a coat that requires frequent grooming. The grooming process helps to wash away dander and oils that may
contribute to allergies. * Kerry blue terrier: This fun-loving, active dog is thought to be low-allergy because it sheds less dander than some other breeds. It has a soft, wavy coat that fades from black to a blue-gray color as the dog ages. * Standard poodle: This intelligent breed has a long hair growth cycle, which minimizes shedding. The dog lacks an undercoat, which also can alleviate extra shedding of dander-laden fur. Furthermore, poodles require professional grooming and frequent maintenance, which can keep allergen levels low. * Bichon frise: Much like the poodle, the Bichon Frise is less likely to trigger allergies because its short, curled coat
makes it difficult for dander to escape. * Lhasa apso: This small breed does not shed its coat and requires frequent bathing to remain clean. The combination of these factors can reduce allergen potential. * Poodle mixes: Many breeds are being bred with poodles to create a coat that is more conducive to allergy sufferers. Poodles mixed with cocker spaniels or labradors may shed less fur and dander. Cats * Sphynx cat: This animal is furless and could be better for allergy sufferers because it will not shed allergen-laden throughout the house. Still, it’s important to note that many cat allergies are the result of the Fel D 1 glycoprotein, which
is present in skin secretions and cat saliva. There’s no certainty that the hairless Sphynx still won’t trigger a reaction. * Devon rex cat: This breed of cat has a short, downy fur coat. Because it has less fur than other felines, the Devon rex cat does not need to lick itself as frequently to groom its fur. This cuts down on salivabased allergens being deposited onto the cat’s fur. * Balinese: Although this cat has long fur, it may be good for allergy sufferers because it produces less of the Fel D 1 protein than other cats. * Siberian: Perhaps due to lower enzyme levels in their saliva, Siberian cats may produce minimal reactions among allergy suffers.

The jerseys will be auctioned off after a second game in February honouring the Canadian Armed Forces. The proceeds will be going to the Kingston Military Family Resource Centre. After jumping out to a 4-1 lead over the Rangers in Nov. 8’s game at the K-Rock Centre, the Frontenacs fell behind 5-4 in the third period but earned a 6-5 victory in a shoot out.

Our committee has been providing food and gifts to families in need at Christmas for 25years! It is a testament to the strength of our community! Your support goes a long way, not only funding our Christmas initiative (over 60 baskets were distributed last year) but also our emergency relief fund for those who need timely help with things like hydro, rent and other emergencies. However, we do not act alone. There are many individuals and organizations who step forward to help us. St. Paul’s Anglican Church and St. Pat’s Catholic Church support us throughout the year and as Christmas approaches, the Sydenham Holiness Church arranges a yearly evening of song and fellowship, this year being held at the Grace Centre (formerly Grace Church) on Sunday, December l5th at 7:00pm. The Kingston Capital Men’s Chorus will be providing musical entertainment followed by refreshments and fellowship. All donations go to the Christmas Basket initiative. The families of Leslie Reade and Josie Steele are also hosting Vision Soup again this year on Saturday November 23 at the Grace Centre from 11:30am to 1:30pm. A non perishable food item and $20 gives you a lovely hand-crafted pottery bowl filled with delicious homemade soup provided by local individuals and businesses! Proceeds will be shared between ourselves and South Frontenac Community Services. Tickets are available at Sydenham Veterinary Clinic and South Frontenac Community Services. Get your tickets early, they do sell out! The Royal Bank along with local schools (Loughborough Public and Sydenham High School) will once again be collecting food and toy donations. Because of such generous community support we are able to help those in times of need. We are especially grateful to South Frontenac Community Services for the use of the Grace Centre for the packing and delivery of Christmas Baskets. You may have received our recent mailing which is our only appeal to the community for financial support. Please make cheques payable to LC&ERC; P.O. Box 88; Sydenham, ON; K0H 2T0. Provide your address so that a tax receipt can be mailed to you in the New Year. Beginning mid-November, donations can be deposited in the many festively decorated jars in offices and stores of Sydenham Village Merchants. To be considered for assistance of a Christmas basket, or to recommend someone who might benefit from our services, please leave a message at 613-572-6004 and Bev will return your call.
