Perceived speeding in Crow Lake Village not borne out by police report By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News — The average speed through the hamlet of Crow Lake Village is 23 kph, according to an OPP report, Public Works Manager Mike Richardson told Central Frontenac Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. Concerns about traffic in the hamlet have been brought to Council twice this year, most recently at the Nov. 12 meeting, and Richardson was tasked with investigating those concerns. “I just got the police report and will be writing to Mrs. (Karen, owner of Oaks Cottages) Lahey,” Richardson said. He called the police report “surprising” because of the low average speed and

because “the 87 percentile was 47 kph.” The posted speed limit is 40 kph through most of the hamlet. Richardson did, however, acknowledge that there is a “perception” that people were driving faster. “Part of the reason I’m stating that is that it’s a very narrow road, with no shoulders,” he said. “It’s pretty tight and if you’re walking on it when a vehicle passes, there is nowhere to go and it seems like people are going faster.” Addressing Lahey’s other concerns, Richardson said he drives the road “every day and 40 kph seems very appropriate for a speed limit. “If people aren’t going 40, they certainly won’t go 20. I certainly wouldn’t support a limit of 20 kph.” He said there were guardrails installed

Bar / Chain ComBo SaVE $50

at one time but over time, they have deteriorated through contact with snow removal equipment and other factors related to the narrowness of the road. “The guardrails were too tight to the road and have been knocked down over time,” he said. “We could install new ones but that would have to go with a road reconstruction project and could involve the removal of some rock.” As to the question of driveway erosion, Richardson said that he met with Lahey to have a look at the three areas that were mentioned. “All three driveways were the result of owner-constructed access and as such are really not the Township’s responsibility,” he said. What is the Township’s responsibility is signage, and Richardson said the

faded Children at Play sign would be replaced. “(And) there are more speed limit signs than she said,” he said. “We can put in a ‘Hidden Driveway’ sign but I’m not sure it will do any good. “As far as an electronic speed indicator sign goes, they are about $2,500 to buy and with installation, about $5,000 total. “We can construct it in a way so that it’s portable, the way the one in Verona is, but it would have to be put in the budget for next year.” Coun. Wayne Millar asked if there were any records of vehicle accidents where “someone has gone over the hill.” “You’d end up in somebody’s living room if you did that,” said Richardson. “Or on the roofs because the roofs are lower than the pavement.”

Shabot Obaadjiwan gathering more than just a craft sale By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News — “We all live in this community and we all need to be aware of the environment for all our sakes,” Shabot Obaadjiwan events and programs manager Penny Tryon began. “We all use the same land, water . . . breathe the same air. “If you grow up and lived with that philosophy, you soak up all of that. “It’s your history.” That was her answer (in part) as to what the Shabot Obaadjiwan and Information Day, held last weekend at

St. James Major Hall in Sharbot Lake, was all about. “If we could begin to have storytelling on the beach, what a wonderful calming effect that would have, especially involving young people,” she said. “How much easier life could be at a slower pace.” To Tryon, a sense of community and belonging is a big part of what the day was about. There were about a dozen vendors selling crafts and such, and the canteen was selling moose burgers and bannock (proceeds went to the Food Bank) but this was less a sales event than the

culmination of a process, she said. “We’ve been fortunate to have FCFDC funding and a partnership with the Adult Learning Centre,” she said. “We’ve had craft workshops all season long and we wanted to give a salute and thank you at the end of the season to the people who taught us. “And we wanted to make it a venue for the teachers and the people who learned the crafts to make a little money selling the things they learned to make.” But that wasn’t the only motivation.

“We have been trying to bring the aboriginal community and the general community together with things like the 1812 reenactment last year,” she said. “This is another something to say ‘we’re still here’ and I think it’s important the entire community gets to know what the aboriginal community has to offer — and vice versa.” For example, she said, it’s much like the teachings of wolf medicine. “We are each one, but we live in communities together,” she said.

“There’s a loyalty and trust to that. “Maybe let’s survey the reasons people are enjoying this area and what they would like to see. “Let’s incorporate more communitytype activities.” And again, she said, it’s about belonging. “There are a lot of people out there that fall between the cracks and don’t have a sense of belonging,” she said. “Let’s change that.”

Committee to apply for funding to have architect look at Hinchinbrooke school By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News — The committee looking into the use of the former Hinchinbrooke Public School in Parham as a community centre got the go-ahead from Central Frontenac Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake to apply for funding from Frontenac County. In her presentation to Council, chair Sue Lesley said she had met with Economic Stability Manager Anne Marie Young to explore possibilities. “Anne Marie said she had some money she needs to spend by year end so I was thinking we might get an architect to look at it with community (user) groups in mind and perhaps come up with some answers and what it might cost,” Lesley said.

Lesley said the committee had been given four tasks: determine the condition of the building to see if it’s worth saving; work with potential partner groups to determine their needs and ability to share costs; have an architect review the building plans and suggest best use of space; and survey township residents to gauge interest in using the suggested future facility. “Since Jeremy (building inspector Neven) now has information on the building and site and has visited the school with the school board’s facilities manager, we are suggesting applying to the County for funding to work on parts two and three,” Lesley said. “The committee would arrange to have potential groups and agencies confirm their commitment and to meet with the architect to discuss their needs.

“We would expect Township staff to oversee the RFP process for the architect as part of their service-in-kind contribution.” Coun. Frances Smith was still concerned that any funding might be tied to a commitment from the Township to buy the Gazette Events – Marc Giroux was the special guest as the Café House Band rocked the Legion in Sharbot Lake last week. This was the final Café of 2013 but the semi-monthly building. “They’ll just jam is scheduled to pick up again in February. ask the question Photo/Craig Bakay again — ‘will Council confirm they want to buy in with their plan to re-purpose somewhat predicated on the new and re-use existing buildings.” school (Granite Ridge in Sharbot the building?’” Smith said.

Places to explore and things to experience

New York has it all Gazette Lifestyle - Although I divide my time between New York City and Canada, it’s been two and a half years since I’ve featured the most amazing urban location on the planet in this column. Anytime is a great time to visit NYC. From now until early January is ideal if you want to see spectacular decorations. The window displays along Fifth Avenue and in Macy’s on W34th Street are works of art. There’s a reason that many songs have been written about Christmas in New York. The city deserves its well-earned reputation as the cultural capital of the world. Live theatre, music, dance and sports are second to none in the world. From the gothic St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Fifth Avenue to mellow Buddhist temples in Chinatown, New York has it all.

I spend much of my time in New York at jazz clubs and other musical venues, plays, and in Central Park. The rest of the time I’m exploring. I love to hop on the first bus or subway I come to and see where it takes me. New York isn’t a huge impersonal metropolis. It’s a collection of hundreds of communities, each with its own characteristics and treasures. From the trendy Upper West Side to Little Italy, and the theater district to quirky Greenwich Village, you’ll never completely explore New York in a lifetime. It’s one of the most walkable and safest cities in North America. Certainly, tourists need to exercise caution, but that is true anywhere. If you’re taking your first trip to New York, spend time getting oriented. It will help you to get your bearings when you realize that Av-

enues run north/south; Streets run east/west. That’s if you’re north of 14th Street. In Greenwich Village, Chinatown and all points south, streets seems to go every which way. If you’re exploring south of 14th, keep a map with you. There are some must-see sites for newcomers. Maybe visit one museum like the Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) or Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), or, if you have kids, the Museum of Natural History. Visit Top of the Rock (Rockefeller Center). Wandering Times Square is exciting for newcomers, and adrenalin runs high there, but it can become tedious. Go there to experience its hugeness. You’ll see everything in the extreme. Central Park has breathtaking scenery. Many visitors have fun recognizing locations from their favorite movies or TV shows. You may even catch a live shoot in

progress. The bridges of Central Park are stunning. My favorite is Gapstow Bridge, near the southeast corner at Fifth Avenue. Central Park is like the soul of New York, where you can get away from the wonderful chaos of the streets and enjoy peace and nature. The Upper West Side is fun, with its own share of funk and hip. Lincoln Center comprises several buildings (New York City Ballet, Metropolitan Opera, New York Philharmonic, Film Society, theatres and the adjacent Juilliard School). The Juilliard presents daily concerts/theatre productions featuring its faculty and students. Most shows are free, but it’s wise to obtain tickets earlier in the day or week from the Juilliard box office. I’ve never been disappointed with a Juilliard show. You’re getting the cream of the world crop of “student” musicians and actors. It’s not unusual to run into your

favorite actor on the streets, especially on the Upper West Side, away from the tourist epicentre in midtown. Don’t be surprised if you see an actor or musician with a child in tow, eating ice cream or walking the dog. Liam Neeson, Vanessa Redgrave, Yoko Ono, Matt Damon, Forest Whitaker and many others have condos on the Upper West Side. Scarlett Johansson. Woody Allen, Michael J. Fox and Anne Hathaway have abodes on the opposite side of the park, the Upper East Side. New York etiquette: this is their home; don’t go screaming for an autograph. For example, Hugh Jackman is often out and about. Don’t freak out. Yes, it really is him. Patrick Stewart rides the subway to work. He’s currently performing in Waiting for Godot. David Bowie is more reclusive. If you must go nuts

New York has it all vorite spot is The Garage, mostly because they have live jazz bands performing nightly and all day on Saturday and Sunday. The music is as good as you’ll hear and the food is above average. But there are deeper and darker places for the adventurous. For a sense of history, make sure to visit Bleecker Street, Christopher Street and the White Horse Tavern on Hudson Street. Stroll through Washington Square, a huge park bordering New York University. There’s always some kind of busker or entertain-

ment. Larry the birdman is one of my favorite characters. In New York you’ll be in the center of the world’s finest acting community. Don’t get hung up on whether a show is a Broadway or Off-Broadway production. The distinction isn’t based on quality. Broadway shows, most of which aren’t housed on the street called Broadway, are held in theatres seating more than 500. Off-Broadway theatres (which may be on the street named Broadway) seat between 99 and 499. Some of the finest productions I’ve

seen anywhere in the world have been in Off-Broadway theaters. and touristy, do it at the stage door Musicals appropriate for children after a Broadway show. That’s range from Lion King to Cinderella. where actors expect to sign autoEvery adult with whom I’ve spoken graphs and talk with fans.

plays can be easier to obtain than those for musicals. Many tourists don’t speak a lot of English so they’ll head to a musical where it’s not as important to understand the words. If your heart isn’t set on one particular show, you can buy halfprice same-day Broadway and Off-Broadway tickets at the TKTS outlet at the corner of W 47th and Broadway/7th Avenue. There are usually tickets available for many great productions. For a list of all current and upcoming Broadway and Off-Broadway shows, visit www.broadway. com. However, don’t buy your tickets there; the service fees are outrageous. If you must buy tickets in advance get them at broadwaybox. com or telecharge.com. During your trip, if you want a good view of the New York skyline, skip the cruises. Ride the (free) Staten Island Ferry from the southern tip of Manhattan. You’ll get a great view of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island on the way. You’ll also get one of the best views of the famous southern skyline of New York. Next week we’ll look at New York from a local’s (non-tourist) perspective. On Twitter @markaidanbergin

Kennebec Hall wasn’t really closed but church group opted out of portable heater offer Reporter

Gazette News — The presumed closure of Kennebec Hall for repairs to the heating system during the week of Nov. 3 led to a “comedy of errors”, but while Council was prepared to reimburse a church group for the hall rental fee and send a letter of apology, it stopped short of offering a “freebie” for the group’s next hall rental. Responding to a letter from resident Roy Beechey that outlined the cancellation of the Arden United Church-sponsored Hunter’s Ball, Dep. Mayor Tom Dewey told Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake that the hall actually wasn’t “closed” but acknowledged that the regular heating system wasn’t available during repairs. “I apologized to Roy but there was no closure,” Dewey said. “Heaters were offered but the group declined. “I don’t know what else we can do other than maybe offer a no

rental fee to this group.” “I agree,” said Coun. Frances Smith. “When I first read this letter I thought ‘oh geez.’ “But when I heard from the building inspector that it was the group’s decision to cancel . . . “I’m not sure we have any policy that covers this and I realize that this is a small church with limited fundraising opportunities and I wouldn’t have a problem reimbursing them the ($60) rental fee but it’s probably a comedy of errors that happens when things like this start to go wrong.” “Everybody wants the hall updated,” said Coun. Wayne Millar. “We were willing to bend over backwards and give them heat but they didn’t want it.” “Line dancing, tai chi, fit & fun, and euchre were also cancelled,” said Coun. Jeff Matson. “Tonight was the first I heard that heat was available though.” “For those groups that use the hall every week, we probably should give a refund or a credit,”

said Coun. John Purdon. “But a fundraiser for a church is a little bit different than euchre. “I know the euchre was held at the Legion that evening but for the next event for the church, perhaps an adjustment should be made.” “I agree, go for the goodwill,” said Coun. Norm Guntensperger. In his letter, Beechey said that the estimated loss of revenue for the church was about $1,000. Add to that food that was ordered and couldn’t be used and that could have implications for future deliveries.

And, he said, because there was little opportunity to advertise the cancellation, people may have shown up at the hall and been

disappointed. In the end, Council opted for a letter of apology and reimbursement of the hall rental fee.

In Our Opinion

Theory that cats know their owners, but just ignore them scientifically proven Craig Bakay Reporter

editorial@theheritageemc.ca

Gazette Column — One of the best things about the Internet is access to information one might not otherwise even be aware of. A case in point, researchers at the University of Japan have definitively determined that cats definitely recognize their owner’s voice. They don’t give a damn, apparently, but they recognize it. Atsuko Saito and Kazutaka Shinozuka tested 20 housecats in their own homes (the cats’ homes, not Saito and Shinozuka’s). When the owner was out of sight, the cat would hear its name called by three strangers. Then the owner would call the cat’s name. In each case, the cats ignored the strangers’ calls, but turned their heads and/ or twitched their ears when their owner called them. Of course, none of the cats moved any more than that, despite owners’ requests for them to come. The study was published in the July

edition of Animal Cognition. All of this, of course, begs three questions: 1. Who the hell pays for this crap? 2. Does the University of Tokyo have any real scientists? And 3. What the hell did they think was going to happen. While Mona the Mountainous Mouser is still technically my daughter’s cat, we have established a working relationship as cat-and-said-cat’s-human. Indeed, when I call out her name, she does invariably raise her head (assuming that she isn’t eating, sleeping or in the litter box at the time - come to think of it, that’s pretty much what she does all the time). But, as the cats in the study, after acknowledgement, Mona invariably ignores any further attempts at conversation. In other words: she knows who I am, she just doesn’t care. Contrast this with dogs, who take the mere mention of their name as an invitation to beg, have their head scratched or hump your leg. Hence the prophetic phrase: let sleeping dogs lie. Nobody ever suggested it made good sense to let sleeping cats lie. The Discovery News site postulates that this stoic attitude in order to mask

injury in the wild. Predators, they reason, can sense when a potential meal is in distress and therefore less able to escape or fight back. More likely, however, is that you can rationalize anything if you think about it long enough. Still, it does make sense to assume that there must be some evolutionary reasoning behind the behaviour of cats. And indeed there is. Cats realized early on that they could get away with totally ignoring humans. Thus, they expended less energy and were more able to withstand the lean times. Or, it could be that, early on in the human-feline relationship, they learned that coming to a human’s call was a good way to end up in the stew pot. Natural selection chose the ignorers. But, lest you think there is no valuable research about cats going on out there, Dr. Fiorella Gambale, of the Institute for Feline Research in Milano, Italy, recently dropped a cat upside down 100 times from heights of six, five, four, three and two feet. The cat landed on its feet every time. Conversely, when dropped from a height of one foot, the cat never landed on its feet. Hey Mona, wanna try an experiment?

Snow on limestone: A love letter to my hometown Hollie Pratt-Campbell Assistant Editor

@hollieprattcamp

Gazette Editorial - When I was in Washington, D.C. last month, I got chatting with a friendly young man from Los Angeles. Inevitably, the conversation turned to how cold and dark it is in my home country at this time of year, and he asked me a question that has haunted me every day since. “Why do you stay there?”, he said. He wasn’t trying to be mean or judgmental. I honestly believe he was simply curious. And it makes perfect sense, really, that someone from the land of year-round sun and warm weather would question the sanity of anyone who chooses to live in a place where you need to wear a jacket (at the very least) just to go outside six months of the year. Yet other non-Canadians seem to get it. Last month, the BBC rated Kingston among the top five university towns in the world, along with Cambridge, England; Valparaiso, Chile; Madison, Wisconsin; and Upp-

sala, Sweden. I asked my friend and Williamsville councillor Jim Neill if he was surprised to see Kingston on the list. “I’m not surprised that we are one of the world’s greatest university towns,” he said. “As an alumni of Queens, twice over, and a long-time resident, I’ve always known it. I’m just surprised that an internationally renowned agency like BBC was able to recognize it!” I know exactly what he means. Unlike so many of my friends and colleagues who live in the Limestone City, I didn’t go to Queen’s, St. Lawrence College or RMC. I did, however, grow up very close to Queen’s. My high school was located pretty much on right on campus and my elementary school only a few blocks down. As a result, I spent a lot of time in the university’s libraries and cafeterias, and was taught by a disproportionately large number of student teachers. Queen’s presence in my hometown profoundly influenced the person I became as an adult, so the recognition we received from the BBC seemed particularly sweet to me, too. To be honest, I’m not sure how keen I would be to stick around the Great White North if I didn’t have

such a strong love for the Kingston area and everything I associate with it - family and friends, beautiful architecture and scenery, countless fond memories, etc. I can’t stand the cold, dark weather we are subjected to for a good portion of the year (so much so that I named my daughter Summer Dawn). I’m not a hockey fan and I don’t ski. The thought of moving our family to California or the south of France can be pretty tempting at this time of year. The thing is, though, it was a whole lot more tempting during the years when I was living in Ottawa and Toronto. Winter just seems more bearable here. Maybe it’s the classic charm and beauty of snow on limestone, but I think there’s more to it than that. “I love Kingston’s diversity and the people,” said Jim. “Despite our size, thanks to our universities and our people, we have so much to offer, both in heritage and culture.” Here are just a few things I personally love about my hometown: Its size – Kingston is large enough to have all the amenities of a big city, but small enough that my commute to work is an easy five minutes; the water, which you’re never more than 10 minutes away from; its proximity to the 1,000 DISTRIBUTION INQUIRIES DISTRIBUTION INQUIRIES

Stop the Violence Gazette Editorial - Dec. 6 marks the 24th anniversary of the 1989 L’Ecole Polytechnique Massacre in Montreal, and the day is now recognized throughout Canada as The National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. It is hard to believe that 24 years after this tragedy, violence against women is still an issue of concern. It is said that one in three women will experience gender based violence in their lifetime. According to Statistics Canada, on any given night in Canada, 3,300 women are sleeping in shelters to escape abuse and 420 women are turned away daily because shelters across the country are full. These issues are even more prevalent in aboriginal communities, with an estimated two to three women reported missing or murdered each month and even more unreported. While it is sometimes hard to relate to these statistics, issues regarding violence against women are happening here in the Kingston area, too. Recently, additional security was hired to patrol the blue light phone booths on Queen’s campus. These booths were installed to add security to the campus and help prevent physical and sexual assaults, most of which are directed at women. Over the years, prank calls on these campus phones have increased with an estimated 362 false calls made in 2012, up from 327 in 2011. According to the Queen’s Journal, there have even been reports of groups misusing these phones to obtain badge bars for their jackets. These activities are called ‘Blue Light’ or ‘True Blue’ and the idea is to go to each phone, drink a beer and in some cases tape the beer to the booth and press the call button to show completion. Once an individual has visited each booth, they get a badge. These booths are designed to increase security and provide help to those that actually need it, but how can campus security do that with so many false and malicious calls? Sadly, these actions speak to the lack of compassion that many feel for these issues, and that is perhaps the most important issue that needs to be addressed at this time of year. It is easy to say that you support the white ribbon campaign or that you believe ending violence against women is an important issue, but is that enough? We need to start living by our words and doing more to prevent these actions. Only then will violence Islands particular); Theof the appreciate against(Howe womeninbecome a thing past. our colleges and our stuGoat; Coffeeco, the incredible farmers’ markets; The Screening Room; my neighbourhood in old Bayridge; the downtown neighbourhood next to Queen’s where I, my mom and her mom before her grew up; most important, I love the people. I love my family, friends and colleagues. I love the juxtaposition of Kingston’s large senior population with the youthful energy of the tens of thousands of students who come here to study. So what can we as a city do to make sure we continue to be so highly regarded, both on the world stage and in our own hearts? “I think we need to more fully

dents,” said Jim. “They’re all so much more than ‘itinerants’, as some colleagues have referred to them. They are residents that count and add so much to Kingston. I think we need to engage our post-secondary students and institutions more fully in the City.” Kudos to the OMB for ruling that students should, in fact, be included in our city’s the vote count. Kingston’s post-secondary institutions and the people who study and work at them contribute in a very significant way to the culture of our city, and to why I personally would never want to live anywhere else.

The spirit of giving is alive and well in the Limestone City By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

Gazette News — It’s nice to be reminded that there are still people out there who truly think of others before themselves. For Johnny Langevin and Julie Fossitt, the holiday season is all about bringing smiles to the faces of children and families in need. In 2005, Langevin, a Canadian Forces member, started a toy and food drive called Operation Covert Santa alongside his friend Craig Gillam. “His daughter had come forward and said there was a family in need at her school,” Langevin explains. “Both the parents were disabled and the kids had about 20 paper routes each to help contribute to the family income. He asked if I could help out, so I did up a letter and went out to local businesses and asked for donations of clothing and food and toys and whatnot. We had a really successful go with that family that year.” The next year, both men were deployed to Afghanistan and in October of 2006, Gillam was killed in battle.

In memory of his friend, Langevin decided to continue Operation Covert Santa when he returned to Canada. He has run the initiative here in Kingston for the past three years. While Langevin normally focuses on providing food and toys for one or two families, this year he was able to expand his reach significantly thanks to the generosity of Julie Fossitt, a local woman with a big heart. At the beginning of 2013, Fossitt set a goal of raising 169 toys for underprivileged children by Christmas. By the end of November, she reached her goal, and delivered an entire vanfull of toys to Operation Covert Santa. “Julie’s donation was outstanding – it kind of took me aback,” Langevin says. He explains that Julie’s toys, combined with those he had already collected, will reach about 200 local children this Christmas; most will be distributed with the assistance of his connections at organizations such as the Children’s Aid Society, the Salvation Army and the KGH pediatrics ward. Fossitt says that the spirit of giving is something she grew up with – and

which she in turn wants to pass on to her own kids, six-year-old Rory and 20-month-old McKenna. “Right now it’s really important to me to try to lead by example to show the kids what giving is like,” she says. “Once I had my second child, we were looking at how much stuff they had and it was just getting a little bit ridiculous.” Then last Christmas, Fossitt had an Julie Fossitt and Johnny Langevin load into a van the 169-plus toys idea. Julie collected for Operation Covert Santa throughout 2013. “I thought, we’re going to have some Photo/Hollie Pratt-Campbell goals for our family that would include party, he had lots of fun, he had a cake. things like that. It’s so much work in a whole bunch of different things…but He didn’t really care about the toys.” a way, but then you see the impact that [collecting 169 toys for charity] was Gradually, word got out about you make. I think it would be great to the big one. So my husband and kids got on board. For my birthday I got Fossitt’s initiative, and more family, continue doing something [like this].” For his part, Langevin credits toys, and for Rory’s birthday people friends and colleagues got on board to help her raise all 169 – and then some. the local community, including area donated toys instead of bringing him “I was kind of surprised that it businesses and his regiment, the 21st presents.” While asking a six-year-old to forgo happened, to be honest,” she says.

Fossitt notes that it was also fun and aiming to provide more families in “I said to him, ‘what do you think need with food, and that he is looking about this’? I didn’t want to pressure very rewarding. “It’s nice to have something for individuals and businesses to help him.

Enchanté

A proud new Canadian

Gazette Lifestyle - I’m always impressed with immigrants and their experience of coming to a new land. The sheer courage involved in leaving everything behind and trying to start a better life is staggering. Two years ago, Miguel Amaro left Murtosa, Aveiro in Portugal for a new life in Canada. “It was hard to leave Portugal and to leave a job,” he said. “I came to Canada and I couldn’t work. I had to wait for my papers before I could work. I started to think of going back to Portugal, but that would be hard too.” He stayed. While waiting for his landed immigrant status he returned to school to learn English. “I left Portugal, my country. It was a crazy idea, but I intended to go to Australia. But things happened quickly and I ended up in Canada.” He said he left Portugal because Europe is going through such difficult financial times. “I wanted to better my life.” Things weren’t always easy in Canada, but Miguel is glad he came. “I miss my country,” he said. “I am never going to say I’m not Portuguese. But I respect my new country. It’s a good country for work. I like the people. It’s a little bit hard when you can’t speak

well.” Miguel signed up for English language classes at Limestone Community Education on Van Order Drive. The centre provides a number of services, including immigrant services, which offers English as a Second Language (ESL) programs for adults and children, as well as ESL Workplace training. It also offers specialized health care training for immigrants, academic upgrading, workforce training and employment services. “I met (teacher) Tiffany Myers,” he said. “I consider her like my sister. She helped me a lot. All the teachers helped me a lot. When there were bad times, they were wonderful to me. Tiffany was my main teacher and the person I talked to about my problems.” Miguel wasn’t alone in Canada. His wife, Maria, was born in Canada and they’ve known each other since they were children. “Her uncle was my neighbor in Portugal,” he said. “And her father and my father are distant relatives. I’ve known Maria since we were kids. We’re the same age. The stars were right in the sky. We were meant to build a family together.” They’ve started that family. Baby Beatriz was born at

you should try to know the country where you live. I know it is expensive and hard sometimes. But you need to follow your dreams.â&#x20AC;? Miguel is now part of the Kingston community, but he isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leaving his Portuguese roots behind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I try to be involved with Portuguese people and to also speak English,â&#x20AC;? he says. He is an altar server at Our Lady of Fatima Church. When he was younger, he studied in the seminary for two years before realizing the priesthood was not his calling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am from a Catholic family,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have two uncles who are priests. But with the priest and teachers, I decided it was not my vocation. When you give to God you are not wasting your time. Now I spend an hour a week helping at Mass.â&#x20AC;? He explained that the hardest time for him came when he started to learn English. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I came to the school I was lost. I knew nobody. My English was just greetings. I went home and told my wife, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to go to this school. Nobody speaks my language.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; But the teachers, my teacher, Tiffany, these are the kind of people who understand you even though you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the language. I dedicated my time when I studied to learn English. I started to gain confidence. Tiffany was my guide. I learned a lot. She told me I would get a job and would be okay. And I am now. For months, Miguel attended school, learning English from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. He said the government was good to him, but he wishes newcomers did not have to pay to learn the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s languages. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come to Canada to take advantage,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you intend to stay in

Until Miguel received his official immigration papers, he had to pay to attend classes for about seven months. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I came to Canada to work, but was not desperate,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had good work in Portugal and had saved money. I was a professional driver and had all my licenses in Portugal.â&#x20AC;? Now, Miguel is working in drywall with a Kingston company. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also building his own company and will be offering to take on small jobs like grass cutting and home repairs. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even got a logo ready. He officially launched his company on Nov. 13. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just waiting for his registrations for things like HST to be complete. I asked Miguel how he adjusted to Canadian weather, especially winters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I drove trucks, we would often go to Northern Germany and Switzerland and northern England, so the cold was not a surprise,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love clean snow. I like to play with my dog. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be fun when our baby is a bit older, especially at Christmas time. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m told we are going to have a lot of snow this year.â&#x20AC;? It was wonderful to listen to Miguelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience of coming to a new country. I wish all Canadians valued this spectacular country as much as newcomer Miguel does. Canadians can be proud of new immigrants like Miguel Amaro.

Backyard rink sparks hockey passion in Fronts’ star By Mark Kerr Reporter

Gazette Sports - As the temperature drops, backyard rinks slowly take shape across this country. Like many Canadian kids, Kingston Frontenacs’ scoring sensation Spencer Watson spent the winter months of his youth skating on his family’s makeshift shinny sheet. “Some of the best memories of playing hockey growing up involve the backyard rink,” said the London, Ont., native. “I would be out there every night. Sometimes we would have teammates over and it was just fun to play.”

Watson moved from the floodlights of his backyard to the bright lights of the Ontario Hockey League last year. He scored 23 goals and added 20 assists in 63 games and earned a spot on the OHL First All-Rookie Team. He has picked up where he left off last year, recording 10 goals and 11 assists through 21 games. In its November report, the NHL’s Central Scouting Services identified the slick winger as a potential first-round selection in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. Scouts often refer to Watson as a ‘pure goal scorer,’ a description he embraces. “I wake up to score. That’s my

role,” he said. “For sure there are going to be times when I am not going to get the bounces. I just try to keep level-headed and know the goals will eventually come.” Natural goal scorers -- at any level of hockey -- can anticipate where the puck and other players are going to be on the ice. From an early age, Watson discovered he could stay two or three steps ahead of the play and find open areas that ultimately gave him a high percentage scoring opportunities. Finishing those chances often requires shooting the puck quickly with a high degree of accuracy. Once again, the backyard rink came in handy for Watson. “I was always working on something on the backyard rink, like stickhandling with a tennis ball or oneon-one (play)

against my brother,” he said. “I got used to playing on ice that wasn’t the greatest and worked on my hand-eye coordination.” That self-improvement continues in Watson’s second year with the Frontenacs. He is working on his defensive zone play and concentrating on becoming a two-way player. Watson realizes the personal stakes are much higher this season with the NHL draft less than a year away. Even though he feels a bit more pressure to impress the scouts, Watson wants to keep things in perspective. “I try not to worry about it because once you do you start gripping your stick too tightly. I just put (the NHL draft) in the back of my mind and really focus on the games,” he said. “I just want to have fun and play the games and hopefully all of that other stuff takes care of itself.” Spencer Watson always has his twin brother Matthew, a defenceman with the Frontenacs,

to lean on for support. Inseparable off the ice, Spencer and Matthew played on the same team growing up until last year when Spencer suited up for the Frontenacs while Matthew joined the Strathroy Rockets of the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League. They were reunited for a brief stint when Kingston called up Matthew for eight games midway through last season. “It feels great having someone you are that close with be with you. We just build off each other’s momentum,” Spencer Watson said. “When we are on the ice together, we know where each other is and we just click.” Watson and the Frontenacs host two tough opponents this weekend. The Barrie Colts arrive at the Rogers K-Rock Centre on Friday night for an Eastern Conference showdown. The highflying Erie Otters come to town for a Sunday afternoon tilt.

Pet food drive aims to help the Kingston Humane Society feed animals in need By Mandy Marciniak Reporter

Gazette News – The holiday season is a time to give to those who are less fortunate – and that includes animals. Shannon Pester, owner of local business Pet Parade Plus, and the Kingston Humane Society are teaming up for their third annual pet food drive. “Pet Parade Plus has always supported us and Shannon has always made donations and supported our events, but we are thrilled to be the beneficiary for the food drive,” said Connie Ball, Executive Director of the Kingston Humane Society. “We always have a need for food, not only in volume, but also in variety. We have many different types of animals, we have cats and dogs and bunnies and rodents so we need to be able to feed all of them.” The drive is done in association with Pet Sitters International (PSI), an organization that Pester and her business are a part of. PSI encourages members to help out in the pet community when possible and Pester saw this as a great way to give back during the holiday season. Last year the drive collected less food than their initial year, but Pester is hoping

to see the number rise again this year. “Two years ago we collected 850 pounds of food and then we saw a drop to 450 pounds last year, so I am hoping that we can get it back up,” said Pester, “I think this year, from a personal point of view, it seems as though the need is greater than it has been before. There seems to be a large number of cats coming into the shelter and it is important for the community to help them. They are here because of us and if they need food then we should help.” The drive’s main focus is on food, but Pester will also accept donations of litter, toys, beds and blankets. “We prefer food donations, but anything that people want to donate to animals is appreciated,” explained Ball. “This time of year, people like to throw in a few dog or cat toys and that is appreciated too. We are always in need of towels and blankets. We don’t like to have animals sleeping on the floor, especially in the winter months, so towels and blankets are great. People don’t think of us when they are getting rid of old towels and sheets, but they are things that we could really use.” The donations are greatly appreciated, as the facility has

struggled to keep up with demand in recent years. As an affiliate of the OSPCA, the Kingston Humane Society also deals with animals that have been abused. A great amount of time and money goes into rehabilitating these animals, so food donations go a long way in helping keep other costs down. “This time of the year is also the end of our fiscal year, so it is nice to get a little bump in supplies,” added Ball. “We also have animals that we not only care for in the shelter but we also have animals in foster programs throughout the community and we still provide those volunteers with food while they are in their homes, so this helps us with that as well.” Pester hopes that people will give generously this year and she has worked hard to set up drop off locations throughout the city to make it easier for people. “We have 16 drop off locations, which is the most we have ever had. I just hope people realize that there is a need here and they consider giving to this cause during the holiday season.” The pet food drive runs from Nov. 23 to Dec. 7. For more information and for a list of drop off locations, go to www.

Winter Warm up at Harper’s Burger Bar By Kate Kristiansen Columnist

Gazette Lifestyle – “Yum!” was all that was said at our post Santa Claus Parade dinner. Our table of four ate in silence after the food arrived. While we’re generally quite an animated bunch, this is the norm at Harpers. One bite and you want to inhale everything. The downtown Santa Claus Parade marks the beginning of holiday season. This year, the big flakes of white stuff softly coming down added to the holiday feeling as the floats passed by. We try to get to the Parade as an annual treat. Once we even volunteered to help. Though it’s a frosty commitment, we always relish the hot chocolate at the end, followed by the lightning of the Christmas tree in Springer Market Square. This time our daughter was in the parade and needed to be there prior to get organized with her peers, which resulted in a welcome opportunity for us to do some holiday shopping and secure a good viewing place. We found a spot outside Harper’s Burger Bar. Soon the street was lined with children and parents, some snuggled up curbside for the perfect siting of the big guy in the red suit trailing the parade. Harper’s Burger Bar was already filled with early diners, something

they say is a regular weekend occurrence, even outside of the Santa Parade event. The restaurant is a popular spot with locals, and is soon to be famous for its food across Canada. In October, they received a call from the Food Network announcing that they had been chosen by the show “You Gotta Eat Here” to be featured in an upcoming episode in March. Last week, the crew was filming on location in Kingston. The burger bar has long been a favorite of our family. It’s located in a relaxed, urban location that serves up good local food. Harper’s is one of four restaurants that owner Tim Pater has in Kingston, the others being, Le Chien Noir, Atomica and Diane’s Fish Bar. The parade was magical. Chris the Town Crier, in full regalia, bellowed the start of the parade. Canada Post collected the letters to Santa from the little boys and girls. The little boy at my feet belly laughed each time a police car or fire truck’s sirens rang out. He was bursting with enthusiasm, while the adults were reminded of Christmas past. The music and children’s laughter filled the air. Dancers, gymnastics clubs, dogs dressed in festive bow ties and floats with beautiful lights twinkled through the evening. We danced a jig to keep warm. All the while, the door at Harper’s would swing open on

occasion, briefly warming and beckoning us in with the delicious aromas from inside. Nearing the end of the parade, I went inside Harper’s to secure us a seat. Truth be told, it was really to warm up a little. Though the restaurant is a busy spot on weekends, the wait time was acceptable. The best part is that no matter how long you wait for, it’s worth every bite. The menu is full of creative food choices. We started with deep fried pickles and white truffle oil aioli for dipping. It’s fun to build your burger with the loads the loads of variations listed. Choose from AAA beef, turkey, blackened chicken, fish, pork or mushroom. Choose a bun and then add a variety of other unique toppings. You won’t be disappointed. Just writing about it makes my mouth water. Don’t worry the classic hamburger is available too, along with foot-long hot dogs,

pulled pork tacos and salads. Pair with an order fresh cut Yukon gold fries, also a meal in itself. Hubby had the “Bulls Eye”, a flat-top seared AAA beef burger, topped with Monterey jack cheese, fried egg, jalapenos and barbeque sauce. I savored the “La La Land” with chicken, avocado spread, goat’s cheese, roasted red pepper, arugula and pesto mayo. I was definitely in la la land afterwards. Harpers’ is licensed and features local beverages along with home

made milkshakes and even beer floats. The kitchen closes at 9 p.m. No reservations are required. We left filled with good eats and the magic of Christmas. You really gotta eat here. Harpers Burger Bar is located at 93 Princess Street, downtown Kingston.

White Ribbon comes to Kingston, addressing issues of violence against women and gender stereotypes By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

Gazette News – Did you know that every minute of every day, a Canadian woman or girl is sexually assaulted, and that 50 per cent Canadian women have been sexually assaulted during their lifetimes? It is estimated that physical and sexual abuse against women costs Canadians $4.2 billion annually. These statistics show that violence against women is not something that exists only in faraway lands – it is alive and well right here in our community. That’s why Daniel Beals, Rebecca Rappeport and Bailey Gerrits decided to create a local chapter of White Ribbon. The campaign was started by a group of Canadian men in 1991, in response to the 1989 Montreal Massacre, which saw a gunman enter L’Ecole Polytechnique and brutally murder 14 female engineering students simply because they were women and he felt threatened by feminism. Today, White Ribbon has a presence in over 60 countries all over the world. “What we’re trying to do with White Ribbon is address the violence before it happens,” says Rappeport. “We’re working with young men, young boys and girls in terms of addressing why there is a culture of violence. Why are we accepting this violence? Why is this happening? And is there a way that we can work past this? And the way that we can work past it is…in terms of gender equality.” Rappeport recently spent some

time working with White Ribbon in Guatemala, teaching young men in that country about deconstructing gender stereotypes in order to promote equality and safety for women. She notes that while many may assume things are better for women in a developed country like Canada, that is not necessarily the case. “In Guatemala they deal with a hypo-sexism called machismo,” Rappeport explains. “These men think, ‘we’re men and you’re women and you stay in the kitchen’. You’d think it’s very different here where women have equality, but then see that half of women are being assaulted by men. That doesn’t look like equality to me.” In fact, she remarks that there are indeed many similarities between the two cultures. “If you look at the bullying epidemic that’s going on, a lot of it’s around the issues of sexuality - you’re not a real man, masculinity, femininity, not fitting into a particular box. So we’re dealing with issues the White Ribbon really addresses. It’s not just bullying because kids are mean. It’s bullying around issues in terms of gender, in terms of sexual identity and how it’s constructed.” Beals emphasizes that it is just as important for men to become involved in the White Ribbon initiative and the philosophy behind it as it is for women. “Men [need to] address men and talk about how masculinity is constructed,” he says, noting that statistics indicate

What we need is some leadership to challenge men to speak out and to act as role models for other men and young men, boys, all the way up through the chain. We need to own the responsibility and own that it’s happening.” Beals notes that a recent report indicating Kingston has the highest sexual assault rate in Canada should be viewed as a huge problem. “That was kind of put aside,” he says. “The police and other groups said it’s because we’re so good at dealing with [the problem of assault] and getting people to talk to them about it. But it’s not something to be proud of. It’s something to take very seriously. I have no doubt that the police are doing a fine job and doing what they can, but we cannot pat ourselves on the shoulder for having the highest sexual assault rate in Canada. We have to take it very seriously and I think that that means that this is the time to bring [White Ribbon] here to Kingston.” White Ribbon Kingston held its first official information session Nov. 29 at a HARS Kingston open house, and will again set up a table at Friday’s National Day of Action and Remembrance on Violence Against Women vigil, held at Sydenham Street United Church in remembrance of all White Ribbon Kingston’s Dan Beals and Rebecca Rappeport victimized women Photo/Hollie Pratt-Campbell

United Way raises a record $3.6 million By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Save Sale Ends December 24th

Members of the community helped reveal the total amount raised by the United Way in this year’s campaign. “We often bring people through who want to tour agencies, and one day we had a group in to Lunch by George. Whenever we are bringing a group through I let the lunch crowd know, in case they aren’t comfortable with it,” explained Fairley. “I told them it was people from the United Way and I explained that they really help us because they help pay for the food. The group came through and…one of the clients stood up and said to us ‘Thank you for providing the food and allowing us to eat here’ and every client stood up and clapped and gave a standing ovation to those that were on the tour. Those thank yous are representative of the people that you are supporting

in the community.” Lunch by George is one of the many programs that benefit from the United Way campaign and Campaign Chair Lori MacDonald urged all of those at the breakfast to go out and see what their money is doing for the community. “I actually went to the Lunch by George program recently and I encourage everyone to do so if they can, just to see where the money is going and the impact it is making on the lives of individuals in the community,” said MacDonald,

“It was such a great experience and I could have sat there all day listening to the stories of the people that were there. It is so great to be in that environment and see the impact we are making. Everyone in this room has helped 85,000 people by raising these funds and I just want to extend an enormous thank you to everyone that has

helped make our year a successful one.” Although the 2013 campaign has ended, the United Way continues to accept donations as workplaces continue with fundraising events and individuals plan their giving for the holidays. For more information on how to donate, visit www.unitedwaykfla.ca

R0012436612_1128

Gazette News – It was another successful year. KFL&A residents set their 15th straight fundraising record for the United Way, raising a $3.6 million with $3,454,725 coming from the campaign itself and $171,540 coming from public tours of Kingston Penitentiary. Many community organizations and members gathered on the morning of Nov. 29 to celebrate another successful year at the touchdown breakfast. MPP John Gerretsen was happy to address the room and offer his thanks. “I know it is tough to raise money and it is tough to ask co-workers for money so to each and every one of you I say a very, very sincere thank you,” said Gerretsen. “You are doing it for the betterment of mankind and I hope that this will continue for many years to come. Even in the great society we live in, there are always people in need and you are making their life just a little bit better by the services and the funds that you are providing.” The funds raised in the 12week campaign represent a 1 per cent increase over United Way’s $3,418,000 goal. The majority of funds raised came from employees in workplaces and individual donors. With the extra funds raised through Kingston Penitentiary tours, the campaign saw a 6 per cent increase over their goal. The extra funds will go towards programs that address youth homelessness, an area identified by the United Way as a key issue facing KFL&A. Volunteer and long-time contributor to the campaign Tanis Fairley had the honour of thanking volunteers this year, and she also passed on a message from United Way recipients at Lunch by George.

Kingston Glass Studio offers unique holiday gift ideas By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Gazette Events – This holiday season, the Kingston Glass Studio and Gallery says they have a perfect gift for everyone on your list. The gallery is offering hand casting and ornament making sessions this month and these workshop-like events are not only fun, but they also allow Kingstonians to make one-of-akind gifts for their loved ones. “We try to do a couple events a year to get kids into the space and to reach out to different parts of the community,” said Kate Ducharme, Curator and Manager at the studio and gallery. “We have been doing the hand molds for a number of years and it is a really fun event. People of all ages love to come out to it, especially kids.” The process is quite simple; children and adults place their hand in sand to create an imprint and then that imprint is filled with molten hot glass. The process is quick and customers can watch as the glass is poured.

“It is great because the kids can watch the entire process and that is really exciting for them. A few days later they can pick up their glass hand or foot print. It is really popular and it is a really unique thing to do. A lot of parents love it as gifts and they give them as gifts to other members of the family like grandparents,” explained Ducharme. The hand and foot molds can be personalized further with etchings on the outside. While hand molds are the most popular, foot molds can also be done too, and Ducharme sometimes recommends this for younger children that can’t keep their hand still enough for the mold. “We find that with really young kids, around a year old, when they are starting to pick up everything, they have a hard time keeping their hand flat. They automatically want to grip the sand so that is when we usually end up doing a foot mold.” The molds are so popular that the studio held an event for pets in the spring. Owners were invited to bring in their dog or cat and get

a mold done of their paw with a portion of proceeds benefitting the Humane Society. The glass studio is also offering an ornament-decorating day this month. The initiative started last year and the studio saw great success, so much so that they held another pre-Christmas ornament making day in the fall. “People can come in and pick out the colours that they like and the design and they can watch as we make the ornament,” explained Ducharme. “They can choose a small or large ball and then after a few days they can come in and pick it up after it has set. Some people make them for themselves and other people make them as gifts.” Both gift ideas are available in a reasonable amount of time and are offered at a reasonable price, with glass ornaments costing $27 for a small ball and $30 for a large ball. Hand casting is also relatively inexpensive, with each mold costing between $30 to $40 depending on the age of the individual. Ducharme hopes that both events are successful and that this will expose more people to the Kingston Glass Studio. “Glass blowing is so unique and Kingston is so lucky to have a studio. There are only a handful of studios in Ontario. This is a chance for people to come out and see the process and work with the glass blower on a one-of-a kind piece that they did. It makes for a really unique gift that comes from the heart.” Both events are being held at the Kingston Glass Studio and Gallery at 56 Queen St. Hand casting will take place on Dec. 7 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Ornament making will take place on Dec. 14 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Ducharme recommends reserving Kate Ducharme and her son participating in handcasting events. ahead of time, but walk-ins are Photo/submitted welcome.

Avoid the hidden costs of online shopping

Shipping

Shipping costs are a burden to online shoppers. Even when prices are low, shipping costs can offset those savings, especially for last-minute shoppers forced to select overnight or two-day shipping. Before completing checkout, check the estimated shipping costs to determine what the final cost will be. Avoid retailers who charge high fees or limit your shipping options. Watch for specials that advertise free shipping, and stick with retailers that offer free or reduced shipping on particular days or times, then do the bulk of your shopping during those discounted periods. Some retailers offer free shipping to a store location. This affords consumers the convenience of shopping online without the added cost of having merchandise delivered to your home.

Poor return policy

Identity theft

The potential for identity theft is another concern when shopping online. Reputable retailers employ security measures to safeguard shoppers’ personal information. Encrypted data, identifiable by a “locked” icon on the check-out page, protects billing information from hackers. Although no system is entirely impenetrable, encrypted sites are generally safe. Never enter personal information unless a site is encrypted. It will cost you time and maybe even money to refute fraudulent purchases, and such issues may negatively affect your credit rating, even when they’re not your fault.

International fees

Shopping online puts you in touch with global retailers. Purchasing from around the world may be easy, but navigating currency exchanges and other fees can be difficult. International sites may list the prices of items at their currency rate, so what seems like a good deal may be anything but. What’s more, some shoppers may incur duty fees when accepting items from other countries, particularly if the value of the product is high. The Internet may be a good place to buy items at attractive prices from the convenience of home. However, shoppers should be aware of any hidden charges that can offset the benefits of shopping online.

Before buying any items online, familiarize yourself with the return and exchange policies of the retailer. Although many sites post sizing charts and dimensions for furniture and other products, sizing mistakes can be made, and you COACH & TOURS may be responsible for the shipping costs when returning or exchanging items. Shop with retailers who have lenient return policies, including accepting exchanges or returns at area stores. Otherwise, UCV - Alight at Night - Saturday, December 14/13 rely on companies Senators vs Bruins - Saturday, December 28/13 that include return The Legend In Black - Friday, January 31/14 labels and take Niagara Falls & The Calendar Girls - February 6-8/14 care of the cost of Toronto Sportsmen’s Show - Saturday, February 8/14 exchanges.

Online shopping saves shoppers the trouble of waiting in long lines while offering the convenience of aroundthe-clock hours. With a few clicks of the keyboard or scrolls on a tablet, shoppers can typically find just about any product or service they desire. But additional fees and service charges that can quickly accumulate also are a part of online shopping. However, shoppers can mitigate such costs by identifying potential fees and learning how to keep them manageable.

Mustang has been in same family for 44 years Gazette Lifestyle – In 1969, tomato farmer Herm Dick purchased a new Mustang fastback with a 302 V8 and automatic transmission from Slater Motors in Leamington for $3,900. Herm and his wife Elizabeth enjoyed driving the car. Eventually, Herm gave the car to their son Dennis, who courted his wife in the Mustang. Herm later bought

it back from Dennis for $500 and passed it along to son Greg, who still owns it today. About ten years ago, the Mustang was fully restored by Dennis Pilon, who demonstrated the perfect fit between the hood and front fenders by rolling a marble from the windshield all the way to the front of the car. This Mustang has now been in the same family for 44 years.

Son Bob purchased his white 1994 Jaguar V-12 convertible from a dealer in Windsor in 2006. This past summer, he was standing beside his car in Tecumseh accompanied by Herm’s daughter Joan Epp and grand-daughter Jessica, this year’s Leamington Tomato Queen. MPP Percy Hatfield approached Bob and wondered why he was standing beside his car! A quick look at the license plate ended the confusion. Percy has an identical car and for a moment thought Bob’s car was his car. Bob and Percy own cars with a distinguished history. Jaguar Cars Limited was founded in 1945 and produced many sleek-looking convertibles and sedans that raced at Le Mans. In recent years, the emphasis

has been on luxury, and some owners claim a Jaguar built today is quieter than a Rolls-Royce! And that brings us to Herm’s 1967 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, purchased earlier this year from a young man in Richmond Hill, Ontario, who had received it from his father. On a nice sunny day recently, Herm treated Catherine and me to a ride all around Leamington in regal splendour. Herm’s Rolls has serial #SRX2386 and I am now doing some detective work to uncover the earlier ownership history of this left-handdrive car. The history of Rolls-Royce dates back to 1904 when Manchester electrical engineer Henry Royce teamed up with the Hon. C. S. Rolls

to build high quality automobiles. The first few models had two, three, and four cylinder engines, followed by six cylinders. In 1959, Rolls brought out a 6231 cc V8 engine. The 1965 Silver Shadow introduced unit construction and all-around independent suspension. Herm’s ’67 Silver Shadow was built two years later and still looks like new! 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.”

All three cars in this story are parked in Herm’s driveway with Herm’s 1967 Silver Shadow flanked by son Greg’s ’69 Mustang fastback and son Bob’s 1994 Jaguar V-12 convertible.

Books, documentaries shed light on JFK theories By Jeff Maguire Columnist

Gazette Lifestyle – I was confident there would be great interest in the column I wrote last week to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the assassination of United States President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Still, I could not have guessed how many readers would respond to my request for feedback on the murder of JFK. There must be a lot of people from my generation reading this newspaper? Either that or the assassination and its aftermath spans the generations and continues to be of general interest? I suspect there’s a mixture of both elements involved. But the volume of email I have received from readers on this subject is remarkable. I’m sorry I can’t reply to every message. But thank you to those who read last week’s column and took the time to tell me where they were on Nov. 22, 1963 or to share details about how JFK’s assassination affected them and their families. As I said in the previous article, the sudden and unexpected death of the young president was a massive shock. Kennedy inspired a generation and millions of people, including countless Canadians, were personally affected by his death. The majority of my correspondents feel

the assassination was the culmination of a conspiracy. In other words more than one person was involved. Others believe one individual, Lee Harvey Oswald, was the lone shooter in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas on that terrible afternoon half a century ago. The majority opinion expressed to me falls in line with what recent polls south of the border have discovered. In the leadup to the 50th anniversary last Friday, one well-known American polling firm found 61 per cent of those they questioned believe there was an organized plot behind Kennedy’s assassination. What is particularly interesting about conducting a survey about JFK’s slaying now is that so many millions of Americans who were alive in 1963 are now deceased. That supports my feeling that people today are just as intrigued by this remarkable story. It’s a real life murder mystery that knows no boundaries! Last week I said I don’t believe the conclusions contained in the Warren Commission Report. Obviously many readers also disagree with the contents of that lengthy document. The 889-page outline purports to be the final word on Kennedy’s assassination. As a career journalist my main interest is the news. It seems much of what we read

“careless” – approach of the electronic media today. To be fair there were also downsides to news reporting 50 years ago. In Kennedy’s case an “unwritten code” meant journalists turned a blind eye to the president’s many peccadillos. I’m referring to the numerous sexual liaisons we now know JFK engaged in while he was president. A certain Bill Clinton wasn’t quite as fortunate in that regard. So, why should we care about an event that, despite the depth of the tragedy, happened 50 years ago? To answer my own question, I believe one has only to consider that the murder victim in this case was the most powerful man in the so-called “free world.” Kennedy’s death undoubtedly altered the course of history in his country, Canada and the world. Of course it matters. Besides, who wouldn’t want to know the real story behind such a world-shaking tragedy? Many people, including me, don’t believe we have the whole truth in this case. But what evidence is there to support such a contention? I believe the Warren Commission had only two objectives after the new president, Lyndon Baines Johnson, appointed them. First, they set out to prove Oswald was the lone assassin. Secondly they wanted it known that Jack Ruby was the only person involved in Oswald’s subsequent murder. Those were the key findings of the commission. But there is compelling evidence the contents of the final report were altered to enhance their conclusions. Many of those who have closely studied JFK’s assassination believe the shortcomings of the Warren report are best detailed in the pages of author Sylvia Meagher’s book ‘Accessories After the Fact: The Warren Commission, the Authorities and the Report.’ Those in the know consider Ms. Meagher’s 1967 work, which I read many years ago, to be the definitive volume on this extremely important subject. 649 Justus Dr Her extensive 613-384-7447 research led Meagher www.grantstile.com to pen three books about the Kennedy Tile • Hardwood • laminaTe • cork • carpeT •vinyl assassination.

and hear today is bad news although I don’t believe it was much different in the past. Human beings continue to be fascinated by negative occurrences. I will admit I’ve had my fill of the Rob Ford story. By contrast I can never get enough information about the Kennedy assassination! During the 50th anniversary week there was a veritable media smorgasbord of material about the assassination. Some stories and television documentaries went straight up the middle, focusing on the history and outlining familiar details about a news story that will probably never completely fade. Different ethics To me the best of the many TV documentaries was a PBS show which focused on how CBS Television handled coverage of the Kennedy assassination. I found the news ethics of the day particularly intriguing. Especially considering that the words “news” and “ethics” are rarely used together at present. Currently details about major events are instantly disseminated via the Internet, with little thought as to whether the facts have been checked and no concern about how incorrect information might affect those involved, their families and friends. That approach is not ethical in my opinion! Fifty years ago CBS-TV and famed news anchor Walter Cronkite (the term “anchorman” was coined for him) demonstrated a refreshingly different style. In fact Cronkite refused to go to air with word of Kennedy’s death until it had been officially announced. That despite the fact CBS could have been scooped by other networks! He hesitated despite the fact his reporters had solid information from reliable sources that the president had succumbed to his wounds. Cronkite was worried how such terrible news would affect his audience. A far cry from the carefree – some would say

are highly questionable. For example, a book that claims the Masonic Order was behind Kennedy’s killing. Those kinds of “theories” are a dime a dozen! What sets Meagher’s second book apart is that she lets readers draw their own conclusions. Obviously there is a big clue to her personal feelings in the title. Beyond that she simply presents documented information. During the time the Warren Commission was in session Meagher was a professional indexer. She undertook the mammoth task of cataloguing every page and exhibit of the Warren report. Eventually she decided to compare the contents of the final document to the recorded testimony of the many witnesses who appeared before the commission. She found literally scores of discrepancies. Witness testimony is either missing from the report or it had clearly been altered. Surely that must have been done to reinforce the report’s conclusions? Meagher meticulously catalogued the apparent differences and outlined the obvious conflicts in print. The result is a book which is quite remarkable. Meagher doesn’t point fingers. Instead she leaves it to the reader to make up their own mind based on the information she presents. Peter Dale Scott, a noted Canadianborn JFK assassination researcher, is one of those who weighs in with an opinion about Meagher’s book. A website I visited quotes Scott as saying, “In her book she (Meagher) shows unequivocally the methods of distortion, suppression and apparent intimidation which were used to arrive at untenable conclusions.” Those who have analyzed Meagher’s extensive work feel that based on her considerable research the findings of the Warren Commission can’t possibly be taken seriously. Unfortunately at this point the book is out of print and difficult to obtain. Meagher died in 1989 at age 67. But if you are interested, why not check your local library or used book store? You might just come up with a copy. It is definitely worth the read. To me a comment made (numerous times) by the late Jesse Curry, chief of the Dallas Police Department at the time of the Kennedy assassination, is extremely telling. “We have no proof that Oswald fired that weapon (rifle) at President Kennedy that day,” Curry said. To me that statement alone calls into question the very tidy conclusions contained in the Warren Commission report.

Lawrence catches fire again in Hunger Games sequel Gazette Arts – The world of The Hunger Games is dark, but there’s also something very gripping about it. Catching Fire takes us further into this story as the Games, the Capitol’s tool of oppression, becomes the spark of rebellion. Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) have returned to District 12 after winning the Hunger Games, but they soon learn what Haymitch (Woody Harrelson) always knew. For victors the Games are never over. The victors are expected to tour the other districts, but there’s been trouble in the districts. Some have seen Katniss’ actions as an act of defiance. President

Catching Fire is an incredible film. This world with its stark contrast between poverty and depravity is oddly fascinating. You’re drawn to the story and horrified by it at the same time. The difference I think is Katniss. She begins as a survivor doing what she has to. Then in the face of certain death she chooses to fight, and not just those in the arena, but those who put her there. In such a dark world hers is a story of the brightest hope. Visually this world is brought to life in remarkable detail. Still, without the right cast this world would be dead no matter how good the effects are. And this is the right cast. Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Lenny Kravitz, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth and Donald Sutherland are perfect. There just isn’t another word for it. There’s no mistaking the star of this film. Jennifer Lawrence shines brightly as Katniss. Her depth of emotion and sensitivity as an actor are such that it’s impossible to say where Lawrence ends and Katniss begins. I’m still not sure what it says about our society that a story about kids killing kids for entertainment is as popular as it is. I am sure that Catching Fire is an incredible film. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of the EMC.

My Take

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Snow (Donald Sutherland) tells Katniss that if she and Peeta don’t convince the public of their undying love than the consequences for her and everyone she knows will be grave. With the help of Haymitch and Effie (Elizabeth Banks) Katniss and Peeta do all they can, but it isn’t enough. Katniss is still a symbol of hope that Snow must destroy. To that end, for the 75th Hunger Games, Snow declares that the tributes will be chosen from among past victors. Once again Katniss and Peeta will have to face the horror of the Games, but there’s a different feeling among the tributes and the people for these Games. Snow hopes to use these Games to squash that feeling. Others hope to use these Games for something else. As Katniss leaves for the arena Haymitch reminds her to remember who the real enemy is. Katniss knows who her enemies are. She also knows in the Games there are no friends. There were some discrepa n c i e s between the book and the film. Regardless,

HOROSCOPES

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 – Aries, delay your plans for the time being. A number of unexpected tasks that will require your undivided attention in the coming day, so clear your schedule. TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 – Assume the role of the strong and silent type this week, Taurus. You do not have to share your opinions with everyone, as an air of mystery may boost your popularity. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 – It can be easy to allow excitement to overtake your logic, Gemini. But you need to be patient and not allow exuberance to interfere with the tasks at hand. That is a recipe for trouble. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 – Cancer, a hefty workload at the office may zap your desire to do much else. However, don’t pass up the opportunity when a social engagement beckons this week. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 – Leo, you will have to continue your rather hectic pace this week, even when you start to feel tired. Fortunately, you are excited about some of the things on your to-do list. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 – Virgo, getting involved with the right people now opens doors that previously may have been closed to you. Do not squander the opportunity to use these new contacts. LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 – Libra, conflicting emotions arise in the week ahead. You have the desire to fulfill people’s expectations of you, but you also just want some time to yourself. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 – Scorpio, maintaining your focus on chores is nearly impossible this week, when you are easily distracted by anything else that sounds interesting. Try to get your work done. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 – Reestablish your priorities, Sagittarius. Doing so will help you live up to your end of the bargain on various commitments. If necessary, ask others for help. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 – Expect to be busy for the rest of the month, Capricorn. With potential birthday celebrations and holiday tasks to complete, spare moments are few and far between. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 – Aquarius, learning a new skill this week will only add to your already vast repertoire of abilities. This is one more reason to have a positive attitude. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 – Emphasize feeling good about yourself this week, Pisces. Doing so will enable you to help others in the near future.
