Hillier back in the saddle as MPP By Desmond Devoy
desmond.devoy@metroland.com
Gazette News – Randy Hillier will be returning to Queen’s Park for the third time as MPP of Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington, though he admitted that his party’s 100,000 job cuts pledge hurt his re-election fight. “I am getting used to being in opposition,” said Hillier, during his election-night victory party speech at Fiddlehead’s Pub in Perth. “I thought I would be on the government side. (But) the people are always right in a democracy.” Raising his glass of beer, he added, “We toast to democracy tonight.” Afterwards, Hillier blamed outgoing party leader Tim Hudak’s 100,000 job cuts pledge for giving him an “uphill battle,” and “causing reluctance,” for some of his previous voters to back him again. He admitted that his majority in the riding was “not as large a majority as last time.” He said that the policy had not been “communicated effectively… (and) it hit close to home.” Speaking just before Hudak announced his resignation, Hillier, who ran against Hudak for the Progressive Conservative leadership in 2009, said, “I only talk about one election per day,” but added, “I don’t see any leadership runs on the horizon.” Premier Kathleen Wynne was elected as the province’s leader in her own right with a small majority government, bucking the predicted result of a minority government, with the winning party too close to call. Hillier said he was “disappointed (with) the results around the province.” Speaking to supporters, he said, “We held on and we did a marvelous job here…I will represent this riding for another four years. We are going to punch ahead and stand tall. We will hold the Liberals to account.” He thanked his wife Jane for being “the real muscle and brains behind the operation.”

Green candidate Cam Mather received 6.5 per cent. (Top) Hillier with grandson Harlan after being declared the winner.

Gazette News — Most of the public works activities budgeted for in 2014 have begun, Public Works Manager Mike Richardson told Central Frontenac Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. “Brushing has started and roadside mowing will begin shortly after that,” he said. “The delivery of calcium (to keep dust down) is expected soon and it will go on the new gravel first. “The calcium will be applied in stages so we can get the grading done first.” Richardson said this spring has been unique in many aspects. “After that winter we had, we’ve seen things we’ve never seen before, such as the entire centre line of a road being lifted,” he said. “Then again, we haven’t seen things we were expecting to see, so it sort of balances out.” Richardson said they are planning to put down gravel on the old railway bed trail that runs from the caboose to the beach in Sharbot Lake, in an effort to control dust. “We’ll put down gravel and put calcium on at the same time,” he said. “That will start the trail project and help with the dust.” Coun. Tom Dewey wondered about progress on road signs damaged during the winter. “I notice there are signs missing on Arden Road and Horsehoe Lake Road that our snowplows knocked off,” Dewey said. didn’t off, residents did,” replied Richur. Aknock tosmiling. ny“We Aardson, n“And y tthem ithis meisn’t ire! but we .

“We have 34 bridges in the Township that are inspected bridges,” he said. “We’ll lose one after it’s replaced by culverts and there is another that is so far in the bush that it never gets inspected.” ••• After a slow start, the 2014 building year has picked up considerably, Chief Building Official Jeremy Neven reports. Neven said permits were issued for $935,000 in May, which is considerably higher than the $587,000 in May of 2013 and $373,00 in May of 2012. The value of permits issued for January through April was just $345,000, considerably less than the $1 million in 2012 and the $1.75 million last year. This puts construction this year about on a par with 2012 but still almost $1 million behind 2013, which was a particularly strong year. “This gives us some hope for a strong summer building season,” he said.

MacDonald closes gap but Hillier comes out on top in LFL&A By Craig Bakay Reporter
Gazette News — Although they watched the election results across the street from each other in Perth last Thursday night, the atmospheres surrounding PC Randy Hillier and Liberal Bill MacDonald were worlds apart. Hillier, the incumbent, won by a margin of just over 7,000 votes (21,966 to 14,957) and held his returns party at Fiddleheads. MacDonald, who managed to close the gap in this second contest between the two (he lost their first match by almost 10,000 votes (22,457 to 12,490) was at the Best Western. For MacDonald, the venue was a classy wine & cheese, with tomato-prosciutto canapés served by a stylish waitress in a black cocktail dress. For Hillier, it was nachos, pizza and beer, more or less serve yourself. Understandably, the moods of the rooms were polar opposites with MacDonald’s reflecting a subdued aura while Hillier’s was a raucous celebration. “This is a bittersweet night,”
MacDonald said. “It’s a Liberal majority government that I desperately wanted to be a part of. “But the best part of it is, the GD pundits were wrong, we do have a Liberal majority.” Across the province, the Liberals took 59 seats (54 needed for majority), the PCs won 27 and the New Democrats 21. At dissolution, the Liberals held 48 seats, the PCs 37 and New Democrats 21 with one seat vacant. In LFL&A, New Democrat Dave Parkhill garnered more than 2,000 more votes (10,207) to finish third. Green Party candidate Cam Mather finished fourth with 3,266 votes, up from the 1,754 Nancy Matte received last time. “I don’t know what we could have done differently,” MacDonald said. “We campaigned every day throughout the election and I’m going to need a few days off to rest. “Not everybody scored but the team wins. “I will sleep soundly tonight.” MacDonald thanked his campaign workers, whose numbers surprised him a bit, calling them “the people who put faith in me
2 GREAT COURSES
and worked very hard for me.” He said he was pleased that the campaign ended up in the black financially and credited campaign manager Roger Martin for that. “I’m not proud of the numbers but I am proud of the effort,” he said. “I’m disappointed with my personal showing but this is a tough riding to paint red.” He also predicted better times for the province under Premier
Kathleen Wynne. “I believe the people of Ontario were listening to a more positive message from Wynne,” he said. “She was operating under a minority but now can move forward.” As to PC leader Tim Hudak announcing he’d step down as leader, MacDonald said: “I don’t care who leads (the Conservative party).” For his part, Hillier was philosophical about the results, while
announcing he wouldn’t be running for the leadership this time around. “We do as good a job as we can,” Hillier said. “It’s unfortunate the way things turned out but I think people voted for me because I think they respect that I do what I say I’m going to. “We’re back to where we were in ’07 and I guess it will be grin and bear it for a few years.”

Central Frontenac building bylaw update ! coincides with newest
Ontario Building Code ! This ad space was generously donated by:
By Craig Bakay Reporter
Gazette News — Spurred by the new Ontario Building Code, Central Frontenac’s Chief Building Official Jeremy Neven presented Council with a new draft Building Bylaw at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. “Our last Building Bylaw was in 2008, which followed the last building code update in 2006,� Neven said. “We now have a 2012 Building Code and so needed an updated bylaw.� Neven said this bylaw is “fairly in-depth compared to the last one.� He said there are several aspects of the new building code that needed to be addressed in a bylaw. “Building departments now have increased inspections to do, requiring more education,� he said. “And, we can receive documents electronically now. “And there are now previsions for closing building permits, for situations like when somebody starts a project and moves away before it’s finished. “Being able to close those permits shows due diligence on our part.� One aspect of the new bylaw Neven seemed particularly pleased with is the ability to issue partial permits. “Believe it or not, this is a situation we come across fairly often in Central Frontenac,� he said. “For example, there are a number of modular homes being built and this allows us to issue permits as each module arrives. “Another example is in the case of fire damage where we can now
issue a permit to have a foundation built while waiting for insurance settlements and such.� He said the Central Frontenac bylaw is very similar to South Frontenac’s and this was by design. “Many residents and contractors live and work in both townships and it makes sense to have similar building rules,� he said. Coun. Norm Guntensperger wondered at the costs of the building department. “I know building departments are supposed to be self-sustaining but I notice costs are estimated at about $140,000 while revenues are estimated at $78,000,� Guntensperger said. “Most rural municipalities have this revenue problem,� Neven said. “In big municipalities, the commercial/industrial/institutional fees cover costs but we don’t have enough of that to cover it. “In the budget, you’ll see a figure in the $90,000 range but that doesn’t show hidden costs like office space, etc.� The bylaw also includes a new fee schedule with increases in most categories to be effective upon passage of the bylaw that caused Coun. John Purdon to wonder about timing. “Could the adoption date be changed til after the new year, after the construction season, rather than changing the fee structure in August?� Purdon said. “In my experience, I don’t think there is a ‘good’ time to raise fees,� Neven said. The proposed bylaw will be posted on the Township website and is scheduled for debate and passage at the Aug. 12 meeting.

Writer-in-residence plants seeds of the story in Sharbot Lake By Craig Bakay Reporter
Gazette News — “All writing, and I suspect all art, starts with something very small and fragmentary — it’s never a full-blown novel,� author Patricia Robertson told a writers workshop at the North Frontenac Telephone Company’s meeting room last week in Sharbot Lake. Robertson, a creative writing instructor at Yukon College in Whitehorse, is just finishing up her stint as the Kingston-Frontenac Public Library’s writer-in-residence, is also the author of The Goldfish Dancer and Graves of Heroes (available at Novel Idea in Kingston). Her workshop, “The Seed of the Story,� focused on where ideas come from. “(Writing) is a matter of teasing out, like following a trail of breadcrumbs through the forest,�
she said. “What we need to do is trust the fragment that begins the process.� She then drew on the philosophy of 1 per cent inspiration and 99 per cent perspiration as to what to do with the seed once you’ve found it. “If I only wrote when I was inspired, I wouldn’t get much writing done,� she said. “Often, writing is like sitting in a dark cave lighting matches that keep going out.� She acknowledged that some writers like to start with the ending, but that’s not her recommendation. “I never do,� she said. “It’s a journey of discovery for me (and) the seed image suggests it’s a subjective process.� And once the seed has been sown, the process begins. “On the first draft, you have to close down the voices in your head,� she said. “This is not the part where you want to listen to the voice of your third-grade teacher

telling you there’s a comma missing somewhere.� But, she said, “writing calls on all of you, your experiences, your motives, your values, etc. “You get pictures all the time of something that intrigues you, inspires you, and that’s what gets you through the novel. The real subject is inside of you.� She then wrote down a list of words: yellow, thunder, clock, tomato, knife, horse, bed, pine tree. Workshop participants were asked to write for five minutes using any one of the words as inspiration. “What these words have in common is that they’re all concrete images,� she said. “Our minds work best with concrete images. “It’s much more difficult to deal with abstracts like love, anger and emotion.� She continued with two more exercises — writing about a gift and a description of a woman, dressed in a fur coat and missing one shoe, running through a flower bed on a lovely spring day. Each exercise brought with it advice inspired by the writings the participants provided. For example: “The first draft is where the characters get together to tell the author what the story is about,� she said. She finished up with what is probably the most important advice for any aspiring writer: “read, read, read.�

New summer camp hopes to fill a gap in local youth theatre programming By Hollie Pratt-Campbell Hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
Gazette News - Katie McDonald has been an active member of the Kingston theatre scene since the age of five, and she has many fond memories of participating in the youth theatre programs that were offered. But the UTM Sheridan student in theatre and drama studies was disheartened to see so many of these programs die off over the years. “We had programs like SlackWood and Just for the Love of It,”
she recalls. “None of those programs exist anymore. It makes me mad because these kids don’t have the same opportunities we had.” That’s why McDonald has teamed up with her partner in business and in life, Jackson Watt-Bowers, to make theatre come alive again for local children through a new summer camp called The Youth Playhouse. The two met when they both attended the Theatre Complete focus program at QECVI, and quickly found that they share a love of theatre.
“I’ve always been passionate about theatre,” McDonald says. “It’s such an evolutionary force and it’s very human. For kids especially, I think it’s something that encourages them to socially interact with their friends, and drama and being involved in the arts boosts your math skills, your reading skills and your confidence.” The Youth Playhouse will run from July 14 - Aug. 29, and is aimed at children aged 7 - 12. Each session will run for two weeks; the first will focus on skills such as
clowning, mime, acting singing and dancing, and the second will be spent preparing a cabaret-style show where each child will have the opportunity to take a lead role in one scene and participate in several other ensembles. Parents, siblings and friends will be invited to attend the final production. “It’s a great opportunity for kids, and it’s important to get into it at an early age,” says Watt-Bowers, who will also be attending Sheridan for theatre and drama studies in September.
Help keep your community clean.

He notes that he wishes he had discovered his calling at an earlier age. “I found out at the last moment that this is something you can really pursue and really do with your life. I feel like if a child knows that at an earlier age they’ll be more prepared.” The two are excited to get the program started, and hope to add a stronger youth voice to the local theatre community in Kingston. “It’s called The Youth Playhouse and the ages are 7 - 12, but we’re also only 19 and our friends are going into theatre now too,” McDonald says. “We’re hoping to [connect young people who are interested in theatre] so that our voices can be heard within the community.” For the moment, however, they are focusing on having a strong first year for the camp, as they hope it will continue for many years to come. “We’re hoping for as many people as we can get but we came into this knowing that the first year we do it won’t be as successful as years to come,” Watt-Bowers says. “We’re just trying to get the word out there and get people to know the name. Then when next summer rolls around people will say, ‘oh that camp, I heard good things about it. We can do that this year.’” For more information on The Youth Playhouse and how to register your child, visit www.theyouthplayhouse.wix.com.

In Our Opinion
Oh the pitfalls of ‘science’ when Celebrate the Solstice it’s done on a TV drama series Craig Bakay Reporter
editorial@theheritageemc.ca
Gazette Column — There was an interesting piece in the National Post the other day suggesting that ‘forensic’ science isn’t real science and the evidentiary rules governing North American court rooms have sent many innocent people to prison and/or death sentences. The story made the case that many forensic ‘labs’ are staffed by under-trained people, often suffer from cognitive bias and worse yet, subject juries to the “CSI Effect� in which laypeople often just accept the findings of ‘experts’ if presented with ‘facts’ in the context of science. For those not familiar with the CSI Effect, the suggestion is that given the flood of forensics-driven crime drama on TV (the CSI series, Bones, or a personal fav NCIS), the public has come to believe that every crime has a high-tech solution. This is nonsense of course but then nonsense makes the world go
’round now doesn’t it? I’ve been addicted to NCIS ever since it spun off from JAG but rarely because of the pseudoscience that passes for actual detective work. As much as I enjoy the quirky characters like Abby the goth-girl science-whiz and Ducky the anecdote-obsessed pathologist, they do tend to come up with a few things that are, quite simply, absolute hogwash. For example, there have been instances where voices have been miraculously ‘isolated’ from bits of digital audio recordings through the use of filters and such. As some who’s been obsessed with this sort of thing ever since GarageBand came out, I can tell you — it don’t work like that. There are marvelous applications out there like Logic Pro and Audacity that can take out the odd “braaap� or hiccup, but zooming in on a single human voice to the exclusion of all background noise and chatter is a fool’s errand at best. And the longer the sentence you’re trying to isolate, the more your success rate goes down and it goes down exponentially. Trust me, there are websites devoted to audio recording/editing that have hundreds
of crazy people on them who waste ridiculous amounts of time trying to do this very thing (often in pursuit of removing vocals to produce karaoke tracks) and despite what some of the pop-up ads promise, the results are always less than spectacular. What is it about modern society that seems to think that science can do anything? And contrary to popular belief, there is absolutely no evidence to support the concept that “scientists agree� on anything. First of all, scientists generally tend to disagree on principle. Also, they tend to be a fairly egotistical lot so that if one scientist comes up with something, most are going to disagree initially at least simply because they didn’t think of it. While science has given us marvelous things — radio, computers, Teflon — it has also given us PCBs, thalidomide and nuclear fallout. Just because something is scientific doesn’t mean it’s absolutely correct, or desirable. Perhaps science itself isn’t so much to blame as popular media. Sadly, we tend to think something isn’t important unless there’s been a Hollywood movie or TV show made about it.
Gazette Editorial –Time flies when the weather is good and it’s hard to believe it is already the middle of June. This time of year is filled with warmer temperatures, lots of activities and longer days. The summer solstice marks the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and this year that occurs on June 21 at 6:51 a.m. On this day, the sun seems to last forever; in fact, the word “solstice� is from the Latin word solstitium, which literally translates to “sun stands still.� The downside to all of this is that every day that follows the solstice is shorter and we slowly lose daylight until the winter solstice occurs, but let’s not think about that. Let’s focus on how summer solstice is celebrated around the world. In northern European countries such as Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Norway, the summer solstice (or midsummer, as it’s often called) is referred to as the day that never ends. It’s celebrated with bonfires, outdoor festivals, singing, dancing and food. For thousands of years, the summer solstice has been worshipped and celebrated at Stonehenge near Salisbury, England. Today, thousands gather at the sacred site to greet the rising sun on the longest day of the year. Throughout the night, people play music, perform rituals and party until dawn. The summer solstice was especially important for the ancient Egyptians since it signaled the annual flooding of the Nile River. To keep track of the day, the pyramids were built so that the solstice sunset fell exactly between two of them when viewed from the Great Sphinx. While Canadians don’t have any specific traditions to go along with summer solstice, we still celebrate and acknowledge the day. Why not create your own tradition? Maybe designate the summer solstice as a day when you pick flowers or get up to watch the sunrise or take a family hike. Whatever you do, just remember to celebrate those extra few hours of sunlight. You may need the memory of them later to get through the winter!

My brief foray back into the food service industry move. I was a university student living in Ottawa and the summer was when I was supposed to be out making money. My French was not great, which made it difficult for me to find any job in the National Capital Region. Thankfully, a kind woman who managed Mastermark Pewter at the St. Laurent Mall took a chance on me and I was gainfully employed within weeks. I quite liked working at the pewter store. Customers were usually in a cheerful mood and I became an expert gift wrapper, a skill that still comes in handy today. I held a string of other jobs over my student years – from day camp counselor to City of Kingston parking coupon distributor to military base housing admin assistant. Most were boring but reasonably bearable and I think it’s safe to say that nothing, not even my two awful weeks at Wendy’s, prepared me for what I experienced when I finished my master’s and ventured out into the “real� world of work.

@hollieprattcamp Kanata Kourier-Standard Gazette Editorial - Last week, my Arnprior colleagues Mandy,Chronicle-Guide Sherri and I spent
a couple of hours volunteering at Tim Horton’s for Camp Day and it got me thinking about my various full and part-time jobs of yore. “I’m counting on you to make us look good,� I said to Mandy before we headed over. Mandy spent almost a decade as a Starbucks barista, whereas I lasted about two weeks at Wendy’s before quitting because it was too hard. I’d get flustered taking orders, angering customers. My lower back constantly ached from all the standing. Plus, for a non-meat eater, returning home every day smelling like greasy beef was nothing short of revolting. At the time, quitting was a bold

my hometown so Steve could attend teacher’s college at Queen’s, and even happier when my experience in military housing landed me a job with a local housing company. Unfortunately, this was also where I encountered my first (and thus far only) real conflict with a boss. The experience was a shock, as I was rather used to people – especially authority-type figures – liking me. I was sweet and good-natured and admittedly a bit of a daydreamer. Looking back, I can see that this woman had a difficult life and thus probably resented all of those things about me, especially the third, which caused me to come off as absent-minded and occasionally incompetent. After about six months of hell I decided it wasn’t going to get any better and started applying for every job I saw advertised.

there are literally millions of files in that warehouse. Still, the job wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t awful. I liked my co-workers, I got to listen to my iPod all day long and there was something rather pleasing about the order and monotony of it all. When my year-long contract was up, they offered me a full-time job, which I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take. I knew this wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t what I wanted, and for the first time in my life, I decided to take some me-time to do some soul searching and figure out what exactly I was going to do with my life. A month later, I got a call from Lynn Lambert. She wanted to know if I was interested in freelancing for my current paperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competitor. My answer: YES!!! Suddenly, I found myself in the editorial business. All I had to do was ask people thoughtful questions and write up their answers in interesting ways. It all came a whole lot more easily to me than taking peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s orders, operating cash registers and keeping lists of things up-to-date and ADVERTISING organized.

Though I was exhausted by the time the two hours were over, it was all for a great cause and it filled me with a renewed appreciation not only for my own job, but also for the hard work the people there do every day. Some were obviously seasoned veterans â&#x20AC;&#x201C; efficient, precise. Others reminded me more of myself â&#x20AC;&#x201C; messing up orders, not really cut out for that style of work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gets better,â&#x20AC;? I wanted to say to them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Someday, you will arrive at where you need to be.â&#x20AC;?

Engaging the community in art By Hiba Kesebi Reporter
Gazette News - With more than 150 artists and artisans travelling to Kingston from across Ontario and Quebec for Artfest Kingston, this year’s four day festival is sure to bring out everyone’s inner artist, said Lory Macdonald, show producer. According to Macdonald the event will feature many opportunities for people to roll up their sleeves and make art – from helping paint an 80
foot mural to making costumes for a unique Canada Day performance. “To me when you are in a festival and you are walking around, you think that is great. But if you actually participate and do things and have experiences - that’s what creates a really unique memory and that lasts a lifetime,” explained Macdonald, who also noted there will be an Artfest Kids activity tent, which features activities specially designed to engage kids. In addition to making art, partici-
pants of all ages can enjoy listening to live music. “One of the most exciting Artfest Kingston programming features for this year is the music,” said Macdonald. “Last year was our first music stage, and our guests all said “more please!” With the support of Celebrate Ontario, which provides provincial grants for new and existing festivals, Artfest Kingston will feature performers on two stages and an additional spot situated amongst the arts
and crafts section. “There’s something for everyone. It’s really a festival that caters to everyone’s interests,” said Macdonald. For Barb Simard, a fabric artist and Kingston resident, the festival is a time to showcase her work and connect with the community. “It’s a great opportunity for myself and other artists to interact with the public and talk about our art and engage in conversation,” explained Simard, who is also a festival volunteer. As a fabric artist, Simard creates wall art and sculptures from fabric. Simard said doing fabric wall art is a lot like doing a puzzle – only the art scene is from pieces of fabric.
“It’s very low tech. All you need are scissors, tweezers, toothpicks and glue,” she noted. Simard has also taken a new interest in fabric sculpture and she is looking forward to showcasing some of her sculptures during the festival. “Artfest Kingston is a great avenue for artists to display their art and for people to learn more about the work that goes into making a piece,” she explained. Artfest Kingston will take place at City Park on the Canada Day weekend, June 28 – July 1, from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. Admission to the festival is free. For more information about the event visit: www.artfestkingston.com.

County sustainability committee looking to hold community speaker series Reporter
Gazette News â&#x20AC;&#x201D; While the term â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sustainabilityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; may have come under fire at Frontenac County of late, the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sustainability Advisory Committee (SAC) remains its longest standing committee and its members have begun a feedback gathering tour of township councils. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to get feedback on the work of the Sustainability Committee,â&#x20AC;? said Dep. Warden Denis Doyle, who along with committee member Barrie Gilbert was at Central Frontenacâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to make the committee more relevant to communities.â&#x20AC;? One of the ideas Doyle and Gilbert were advocating is a series of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;community speaker seriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coordinated by SAC in collaboration with the township wherein experts in a particular subject matter give talks and answer questions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hosting an event in each township means subject matter will vary by event and be relevant to local residents,â&#x20AC;? Doyle said. As examples of potential topics, he suggested car-share programs, encouraging volunteerism, local recreational opportunities and community revitalization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There could also be other themed topics such as A Homeownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Helper which could include subjects like healthy homes, solar hot water heaters, energy retrofits and septic system alternatives,â&#x20AC;? he said. Other suggested topics include living naturally, living locally (seed banks and heritage foods, eating locally in winter, local medicinal plants), climate consciousness (greening for local businesses,

environmentally conscious movie nights, lake management plans). The lake management plans idea drew some immediate feedback from Mayor Janet Gutowski. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many of our lake associations already have lake management plans and work closely with Council and the conservation authorities,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We try to look to the grass roots associations where we can. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done very well at education and for example, years ago people would mow their lawns right to the waterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edge but now the majority are observing the ribbon of life.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;So, are the lake associations far ahead of the us (SAC)?â&#x20AC;? said Doyle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They do a lot of education but they could use some financial resources,â&#x20AC;? Gutowski said. Coun. Tom Dewey concurred with the mayor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the bigger lakes in Kennebec have associations,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And there are varying programs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year, our association hopes to have trees available for residents to plant but there is an initial outlay to obtain seedlings.â&#x20AC;? Doyle said SAC is looking for townships to select topics, suggest speakers, suggest the format of the event as well as the location and timing. He said theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d coordinate the information their feedback tour collects at their next meeting Aug. 11. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first event is to be planned for the fall,â&#x20AC;? he said. Members of the public can leave suggestions at the Frontenac County website or contact committee members. Besides Doyle and Gilbert, the committee includes chair Tracy John, Geoff Sandiford, John McDougall and Don Ross.

ENCHANTĂ&#x2030;
Enchanting and fascinating peopleâ&#x20AC;Ś.and their world
Mark Bergin
Lovable creature makes life bearableâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the comfort of innocence By Mark Bergin Columnist
Gazette Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; He spent much of his early life in a forest before travelling hundreds of thousands of miles. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only got a few good friends, but has millions of fans who span several generations. The little fellow has significant connections to Canada and the United States, where he now lives in New York City with his lifelong close friends. Some consider that home, a climate-controlled case, a shrine. Winnie-the-Pooh (Disney dropped the hyphens), a Brit, born early in the
20th century, was spawned from the minds of author Alan Alexander (A. A.) Milne and artist Ernest H. Shepard. The early drawings, oddly, were called decorations. Such a Pooh-like description. On days when this crazy world seems unthinkably harsh, this little bear takes us to a place filled with innocence. He dwells in an existential Nirvana called the Hundred Acre Wood, inspired by Ashdown Forest, at the edge of which the Milne family had a country home and farm. His worldview comprises innocence and the thought â&#x20AC;&#x153;I eat honey (hunny), there-
fore I am.â&#x20AC;? At the toughest moments of life or just generally sad times, I turn to Pooh for comfort. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll dissolve the hurt within pages of innocent wonder. Recently, I embarked on a pilgrimage of sorts to meet the real Pooh. When the moment came and I stood in the presence of the inspirationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a ragged stuffed bearâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; for all those stories, I felt tears in my eyes, and my hands shook. I said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank you.â&#x20AC;? During those darkest times when hope is hidden, Poohâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endless innocence is there, a flicker of playful light in the darkness. With his existential innocence, he is present.
Help keep your community clean.

When I finally stood next to the real Pooh, I felt like Buddy in the movie Elf, when he learns that Santa is coming to the department store where heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pooh, here? I KNOW him. I KNOW HIM.â&#x20AC;? A. A. Milne, Winnie-the-Poohâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creator, entered the world on January 18, 1882. Milne became a journalist, novelist and playwright. In 1902, during a hunting expedition, Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th president of the United States, spared the life of a young bear. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long for toy stuffed bears to become Teddy bears, named in honor of Roosevelt. In 1914, a trapper found an orphaned bear near White River, Ontario, where Canadian Pacific trains made lengthy stopovers. There, they took on coal and water, and horses were watered and allowed to stretch and exercise. During one of those stops, Lieutenant Harry Coleburn, on his way to England, bought the orphaned bear. In those days, it was not uncommon to own a wild animal like a bear. Coleburn, a British citizen, had lived in Toronto and Winnipeg during his teens. He named the bear Winnipeg and took her to England with him. When Coleburn and his unit were deployed to France, he left Winnipeg at the London Zoo for caretaking. After the war, the bear was officially donated to the zoo. She had become a popular attraction and Londoners nicknamed
her Winnie. Young visitors were even given rides on the tame bear. On August 12, 1920, Daphne Milne gave birth to Christopher Robin. One year later, Winnie-the-Pooh, or at least the toy bear who would be given that name, arrived, a gift to Christopher Robin for his first birthday. That Teddy bear was first called Edward the Bear. The young Christopher Robin later renamed him Winnie-the-Pooh. Christopher Finch, who has written many books on popular culture, including a history of Winnie-the-Pooh, notes that Christopher Robin loved visiting the zoo in London and was even allowed to visit the tame bear in its cage. Christopher Robin named his own Teddy bear after the zoo bear, Winnie. As for the Pooh part, there are two stories. One maintains that it came from a Swan called Pooh. The other story comes from A. A. Milne. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But his arms were so stiff...they stayed up straight in the air for more than a week, and whenever a fly came and settled on his nose he had to blow it off. And I thinkâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;but I am not sureâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;that that is why he is always called Pooh.â&#x20AC;? Finch also says that Christopher Robinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Teddy bear was not the only source of inspiration for Shepardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drawings. Shepardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son, Graham, had a Teddy bear of his own, of German Steiff company origin, that helped inspire the drawings. Continued on page 16

ENCHANTÉ
Enchanting and fascinating people….and their world
Mark Bergin
Lovable creature makes life bearable—the comfort of innocence Continued from page 15
Other characters in the Pooh stories were also based on stuffed animals owned by Christopher Robin. Eeyore took on his rather gloomy moods from his appearance. Over time, the toy’s neck became less stiff and Eeyore took on a morose appearance with his droopy head. Piglet was a pincushion that became part of Christopher Robin’s play world. Rabbit, Owl, Kanga, Roo and Tigger were purchased by Alan and Daphne
Milne for their son at Harrods toy department in London. Winnie-the-Pooh made his debut by name on Christmas Eve 1925, in a story published in the London Evening News. That story later became the first chapter of the Winnie-thePooh book. A popular game—Pooh Sticks— like most other aspects of the stories, had its origins in Christopher Robin’s life. Christopher Robin Milne played Pooh Sticks on a footbridge over a tributary near their country
home. The game involves dropping twigs on one side of a bridge and seeing which one comes out first on the other side. Winnie-the-Pooh’s popularity is easy to understand. Devoid of pretense and, some dare say, being of little brain, the wee bear is accepting of everyone and kind toward all. He has clever ideas that at times dwarf the brilliant thoughts of great philosophers. In essence, he is an unacknowledged muse and a poet. His one fault, and who can blame him, is honey.

As for Pooh’s red shirt, he doesn’t wear it in his New York home, but Sheperd did draw Pooh with a shirt in his early sketches. When those drawings first appeared in colour, the shirt was red. The earliest plush doll, created by Agnes Bush long before Disney’s influence, wore a red shirt. It was 1947 when Pooh, along with friends Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga and Tigger left their British homeland. Sadly, Christopher Robin had already lost Roo somewhere in Ashdown Forest. After visiting New York City, the group spent 10 years touring libraries and department stores in the United States. Fans travelled hundreds of miles to be in the presence of these precious reminders of childhood. After several years, A. A. Milne agreed that the animals should stay at the offices of E. P. Dutton, Milnes’ publisher, in New York. Pooh made one trip back to England for an Ernest H. Shepard exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum. He flew V.I.P. class on a British Airways Concorde. In September 1987, Dutton donated Milne’s collection of stuffed toys to the New York Public Library, where they found a permanent home. The New

York Times ran a headline noting that Pooh had become a New Yorker. A. A. Milne died in 1956. Winniethe-Pooh lives on. By 1960, sales of Pooh books had reached millions. In 1961, Walt Disney acquired the exclusive film rights to the Pooh stories. Some purists aren’t pleased with the Disney films. But some people like to gripe at anything. Ann Thwaite, Milne’s biographer, doesn’t agree with naysayers. She thinks Milne would have been pleased with Disney’s work. A new character, Gopher, an animal foreign to England but native to the United States, was added by Walt Disney. Since Pooh’s birth, he has shown up in the strangest of places, including pop songs, books to explain Taoism (the Tao of Pooh, the Te of Pooh) and treatises examining philosophical works by the likes of Plato. I have an embarrassingly large collection of Pooh memorabilia. From music boxes and fine china to Pooh dressed as a pilot, explorer, leprechaun and one of Santa’s elves, Pooh can do anything. He’s my hero. Mark Bergin on Twitter @markaidanbergin.

Porch Jazz returns to the streets of Kingston By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
Gazette News - Some of local musician Val Hamiltonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fondest childhood memories are of listening to old jazz standards on her parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; record player. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My parents are both long gone now but I remember a lot of these old tunes from their stereo,â&#x20AC;? she says, explaining that the music has stuck with her over the years and had an influence on her own work. Today, Hamilton and her bandmates in the Blue Swing Jazz Band help keep this style of music alive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do some newer tunes and we do [Latin tunes in Brazilian Portuguese], but the chestnuts I think are the old vocal tunes,â&#x20AC;? she explains. In 2012, the Blue Swing Jazz Band performed in Porch Jazz, an annual New Orleans-style music parade through Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s downtown. This year they are returning to the festival, joining other acts like The Pram Trio, The Skeleton Bones and Lightbox. The parade kicks off at noon on June 21 at The Mansion and continues down Chatham Street to York Street, ending at Skeleton Park,
where the Skeleton Park Arts Festival will be going strong. At 9 p.m., the parade will continue downtown for free programming at the Sleepless Goat and The Toucan. A street closure will be in place between King and Wellington Streets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would like to see as many people get out and participate in that parade as possible,â&#x20AC;? Hamilton says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where else are you going to go and find a porch jazz parade? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much fun. It narrows the gap between performer and audience. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a lot physically closer and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a lot emotionally closer.â&#x20AC;? She notes that the connection to the heart and soul of jazz and to the roots of this style of music is profound in such a setting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love it,â&#x20AC;? Hamilton says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a deep connection to music that was written a long time ago. A lot of it was written in the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;20s and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;30s, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also got roots in blues. I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very catchy. I think people especially are drawn to vocal jazzâ&#x20AC;Śyou hear an old familiar tune like Blue Skies or Fly Me to the Moon and you remember back to the days of Guy Lombardo, people like that.â&#x20AC;?

Preserving Portuguese music is something that is particularly important to Hamilton, and she says people can also expect to hear some of that at Porch Jazz. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will be doing one piece called So Danso Samba. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an upbeat samba. Makes you want to shake your hips and move your feet.â&#x20AC;? She adds that the whole community feel of it all â&#x20AC;&#x201C; something that is very important to the Skeleton Park Arts Festival â&#x20AC;&#x201C; adds to the very unique aesthetic of Porch Jazz. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a community event and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the middle of Kingston and a lot of people walk to get there. People know each other and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re friends and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re neighbours and there are a lot of people with children. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wholesome. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soul-making. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wonderful event.â&#x20AC;?

Howe Island meeting interesting, informative and hopeful Correspondant
Gazette News – An important resolution related to transportation, specifically the Howe Island ferry service was passed at the Regular Frontenac Islands June Council meeting. But then the most important issue facing Frontenac Islands is always about transportation. Couldn’t help but think that after years of writing about Ferry Services to Howe and Wolfe islands and in spite of many improvements that have come about, ever decreasing ferry capacity due to ever increasing demand is leading to ever increasing wait times with no real solution determined, except on paper. But this resolution pertaining to Howe Island is different in that it authorizes township staff to investigate the process necessary to consider how to refurbish or to replace the Howe Island Township Ferry. And further that all this leads eventually to a proposal for a work plan based on information from the 2013 AECOM Howe Island Trasportation Study report “to accommodate the financial and operational commitments necessary to manage Howe
Island ferry service demands.” Deputy Mayor Jones reminded council that very soon based on figures presented it was clear that long lineups were inevitable sooner than later.”This resolution is really to ask staff to put the process in place, not necessarily to do the work but to find the solution for us.” He noted transportation management within the process is also important in this process in particular in the way commutes are managed, types of vehicle on the ferry etc. . “I am sure the CAO (Darlene Plumley) and her staff will bring a report to council that will engage not only the bureaucracy but the community as well.” HIRA member Brian Humphrys thanked council but suggested that council also look at short and long term improvements to our existing structure and look at what to do without getting into big dollars. HIRA will outline certain initiatives that could be taken in a letter. He also asked for news about the Frontenac Howe Island County ferry bubble system problems Mayor Doyle said that there is information about the bubble system pipes that will be made available at a Howe Island community meet-
ing with council tentatively set for June 26th. **Howe Island is looking to improve their waste diversion program at their recycling transfer station.. and (eventually) eliminate disposal of recyclable material during curb side pickup. AECOM provided a Waste Recycling Strategy report which indicated Howe is poor at recycling. They are looking to improve their system in ways similar to those on Wolfe Island . Township staff will investigate options. * CAO Darlene Plumley has been delegated by Council to submit and confirm the accuracy of costs claimed for submissions related to the Ontario Ice Storm Assistance Program. ($99K) Hopefully all contractors are urged to get their bills in early. Pictures of damage done by storm would be welcomed by the CAO. *In April the Township adopted a by-law authorizing the use of alternative voting - the Telephone/ Internet Voting method in conjunction with the paper ballot, and also entered into an agreement Intelivote Systems Inc. for the Telephone/Internet Voting service for the 2014 Municipal Elections. The Townshp
Was your wedding one that should be featured in a magazine?
received information and procedures for the method from CAO Plumley (Returning Officer) * Staff can issue Lottery Licences properly documented prior to their presentation at a council meetings. *The WI MacDonald Park proposal, a community park with water access, is alive as envisioned by Mary Lynn MacDonald. She is looking for the establishment of a MacDonald Park Committee of Council and a letter of understanding (including legal) with the township to proceed. The park includes a fragment of land owned by Mary Lynn in conjunction with the township road allowance at the canal entry on Road 7051 (winter dock road). Both Councillor Grant and Councillor Springgay volunteered to serve on the Park Committee. A notice for further committee members will be posted by the township. * The disruption of traffic on Main Street in Marysville during the Kiddie Kilometre, a component of the 5k-10k WI Classic Road Race sponsored by the WI Community Medical Clinic , was a point of concern/discussion. The Main Street (Road #96) is closed
from the General Wolfe Hotel to the Town Hall while the Kiddie race goes on, this year between 9-9:10 am, requiring cars to detour around the area during that time to access Road 96. The Classic attracts participants from Kingston, Cape Vincent,NY and beyond. Frontenac County Planner Peter Young presented the applications during the Committee of Adjustment, lot additions;, new lot/ right of way.. All approved. * WI Boat launch small craft facility/day parking for trailers at 18th Line now open. Councillor Springgay noted she had received requests for a launch site at the west of the island. Next meeting July on Wolfe Island Around Town: *Now until Sept. 9th the Dangerous Goods schedule has been reduced to one run on Tuesdays at 11 am from Wolfe Island. * The WI landfill site is open Sundays: 9 am-5 pm June-15 -Sept.14th. *WI Library dedication honouring the late Tim O’Shea is Aug. 9th. *Fine article about Chris Brown. We proudly claim him. *Coming Events: *Ambush Concert “Under the Roof” July 18th. Many more listed at wolfeisland. com

Second runner up in the LFL&A provincial election Gazette Events – NDP candidate Dave Parkhill was the second runner up in the LFL&A provincial election. Parkhill garnered a total of 10,207 votes, up by about 2,000 from the 2011 election. “It’s the nature of the riding,” Parkhill said of the rather predictable win by Conservative Randy Hillier. “Bill ran a great campaign, and I think so did I. But the fact is, there is a big blue machine in this riding that has been there for a long time, and it’s going to be hard to knock them down.” All the same, he was relatively happy with how things turned out. “We brought our percentage up a fair bit, and I think I had a really good campaign,” Parkhill said. “I communicated with a lot of people, and with hearts and minds we had some growth. We’re moving forward to the next campaign, and we’ll bring it up even more.” He noted he was surprised to see the Liberals win a majority, as that does not reflect what he was hearing from people on the campaign trail. “I think probably, at the end of the day, I think people voted out of fear. I think they were afraid of a Hudak majority, and I think province-wide that’s what happened. And, locally, I think people voted for the comfort that they have in Randy.” Photo/John Harman

Queen’s women’s hockey adds four Reporter
Gazette Sports - Last season’s heartbreaking loss to the Wilfred Laurier Golden Hawks in the OUA Women’s Hockey Championship should give the Gaels’ returning women all the motivation they need for next season. After all, losing a championship at any level leaves an unfinished taste in any athlete’s mouth. For the Gaels, though, they also want to be back in the OUA final for the third season in a row. “Our goal is to be one of the top four teams in the OUA,” said Head Coach Matt Holmberg. “At that point, as long as we can stay healthy, anything can happen.” The Gaels have to do it though, losing three of their top players. Morgan McHaffie was not only the captain, but also the Gaels’ leading scorer. Add her departure to those of starting goaltender Mel Dodd-Moher and defenseman Marlee Fisher and there are some big shoes to fill. Yet Holmberg isn’t worried. This season’s recruiting class is only four players, but these are four players Holmberg thinks can step in and help the team towards their goal. “When we recruit players in, it’s the expectation that they’re going to be on the bench, jersey on the back, participating,” said Holmberg. “If we want to stay near the top we’ve got to try and recruit in
some of the best players in Ontario and across the country and I think we’ve done that.” Last week, the Gaels announced the signing of Addi Halladay of North Augusta, Stephanie Pascal of Sudbury, Amber Sealey of Elora and all around player Fiona Lester of Peterborough.
all met those qualities.” Halladay has been playing in the Provincial Women’s Hockey League for three seasons, most recently with Nepean. She helped them to a bronze medal this season with 23 goals and 29 assists in 37 games. She knows she can bring another element to the Gaels’ ros-

“Having that competitive edge, it pushes other players around you to be better. I’m just excited to try to fight for that starting position.” The Gaels also added two players who were unable to attend the signing. Sealey, the younger sister of Gaels third-year defenseman Alisha, was the captain of her PWHL team in Kitchener-Waterloo. She was one of the top scoring defenseman in that league as well with six goals and 18 assists. “Amber is offensively talented as you can tell by those numbers,” said Holmberg. “But her play in the Dzone is just as impressive. She’s consistent, dependable, she’s extremely calm under pressure, and I could easily be describing her or her sister when I talk about those traits.” The final recruit is one the Gaels know very well. Lester returns to OUA hockey after taking a season off. Her first four seasons were for the Wilfred Laurier Golden Hawks. At WLU she was the captain, leading the team to championships in 2010 and 2012. She is also a twotime OUA all-star and four-time Academic All-Canadian. “We know Fiona very well,” said Holmberg. “We are extremely excited to see her bring her experience, leadership, and her skill to the Gaels for her last year of eligibility.” Halladay in enrolled in the Arts program, Pascal and Sealey in engineering, and Lester will be starting her Masters in biostatistics.

Ah, those blonde moments… By Sherri Paterson Columnist
But, the reality is not as bad as all that. In fact, I have learned to love these little detours from the everyday façade – and exhaustion – of keeping up appearances. We can spend so much time and energy worrying about how we appear to others, and these little gaffes exist to show our more human sides, and take our egos down a notch. We may not be the little smarties we claim to be and, thank goodness for that! I had a blonde moment just last week, at work. I was staring at an email to a client, whose name was Bob, while simultaneously phoning another client, Doug. I think you can see where this led. Sorry, Doug (eyeroll). The previous week, while stroll-
ing along Princess Street with my friend Anthony, we spotted a “For Lease” sign, in a storefront window. “I wonder who’s moving in there,” I mused, and was surprised when Anthony burst out laughing. Hmm. Yep, they would’ve taken down the sign. Right. Zing! But, though I used to dread blonde moments, I now find them endearing. While some people may believe they’re nothing more than a source of embarrassment, I prefer to think that they hearken back to an age of innocence and strengthen our character. I like being someone who can admit to her faux pas. No one is perfect, and even though we realize this, why do we still strive for that ideal? Blonde moments assure us that
we are flawed, fallible beings. That’s a good thing in my books. Some people are offended by the saying “blonde moment”. In fact, there have been times when I’ve confessed, following a slip-up, “Oops, blonde moment,” and worried how that branding would be received by those around me. But there’s no disrespect intended. It’s not about being blonde and being blonde is not associated with a lack of intelligence, either. Sorry, urbandictionary.com, but I believe we can all have blonde moments, regardless of hair colour, age or sex and I don’t worry anymore about calling them as I see them. So stay tuned for more bungles, bloopers and blunders...because, after all, they’re guaranteed.
R0012758033
Dictionary.com explains a blonde moment as: “Noun (Often Facetious): A brief mental lapse, as of judgment or memory: ‘I must be having a blonde moment’. Urbandictionary.com has a different take on the phrase and I quote: “When a pretty blonde girl does something stereotypically ‘blonde’ i.e.: walking into a pole, not getting a joke, or getting it slower than other people, and/or saying lots of ‘likes’ in the same sentence.” Well, I’m not in agreement with that last definition, but one thing’s for sure, I am very familiar with this modern predicament known as
the “blonde moment,” especially of the verbal variety. Blonde moments happen unwittingly, exposing your vulnerability and knocking you for a loop. They’re furtive, these little thieves of propriety, sneaking up on you, when you least expect it. Being a blonde, I used to dread blonde moments. The idea of uttering something with total innocence and then finding out (tout de suite) that it garnered a reception quite lacking in awe and adoration horrified me. Say something “blonde” and suddenly my arsenal of a lifetime’s worth of intelligent quips and anecdotes would be obliterated in one fell swoop, along with my dignity. Ah, drama, drama, drama!

Locksmith shop serving Kingston and area for three generations W.R. Brightman & Sons Limited
EMC Business – W.R. Brightman & Son Limited started in January of 1946, after Wilford Brightman was discharged from the Canadian Armed Forces. Sargent Brightman served overseas and other postings as an armour gun-smith. Our (family) business started as a gunsmith shop on Charles Street, in Kingston, where it remained for 56 years. We moved to 349 Bath Road, Kingston in 2002 when we found and purchased the current property. The lockshop started by Wilford was purchased by his son Bob. Chad, Bob’s son, is the third generation working in the family owned and operated business. And, we continue today serving the Kingston and surrounding areas with locksmith services and safe work. Our showroom is stocked with door hardware, office and home safes, with always 40 to 50 safes in stock for you to choose from, or we can order in what you need. We can also custom build a safe to fit your needs and size requirements. We have 3 qualified locksmiths to serve you with your every lock need from exit devises & master key systems to key cutting & high security locks. As the world changes we keep
up to date with mechanical push button and electronic push button locks to make your life a little easier. As well, with safes, we can have your safe open with a push button lock, some with audit trail, multiple user codes and time delay features. In the near future, Brightman’s will be able to supply and install your handicap accessible systems for office and plant. Tip: When considering buying a safe, first decide what kind of safe you are going to need. There are three basic kinds of safes. Fire safes protect papers from burning. Burglary safes protect valuables such as diamonds, gold, money, watches or other irreplaceable items, from being stolen. The third kind of safe is a composite safe which will give you both fire and burglary protection in one unit.

Opening Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Doors Other participating sites include:
By Braden Dragomir Reporter
Gazette News - Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history is rich; the city boasts the title of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first capital, was the home of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Prime Minister, and contains many scenic features like the locks along the Rideau Canal; the list goes on. On Saturday, June 21, you get the chance to experience all of that history and more as Doors Open Kingston happens around the city. Dozens of locations, including several that are not usually open to the public, will welcome you in for free. For this city, 2014 marks a very special year, as Doors Open centres around the 100th anniversary of the First World War. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of historical significance with the theme of World War I this year,â&#x20AC;? said Community Events Coordinator Sue Hitchcock. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We even have a gentleman who has put together a World War I driving tour.â&#x20AC;? With the anniversary, Fort Frontenac will be opening its doors to the public for the first time. The Fort was built in 1673. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never open to the public, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve decided to open this year so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very excited about that, and so are they.â&#x20AC;? Also part of the First World War anniversary theme are the Royal Military College of Canada; CFB Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Camp Barriefield (now McNaughton Barracks); Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who had more than 1,500 students, faculty and staff (189 of whom gave their lives) serving on various fighting fronts; Princess of Waleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Own Regiment â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the unit earned 18 Battle Honours in three years of frontline service; many of Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s museums; and the Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University Archives. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University Archives are new this year, and they have a wealth of artifacts from World War I. They have letters from students that went to war and wrote home, and so much more,â&#x20AC;? said Hitchcock. While the theme focuses on the First World War, there are also many locations that centre around art, culture and other historical events. Murney Tower, which normally has a charge, is free for the day so people can walk through and visit the museum.

The path to vitality
I panicked...
My hair was thinning! For a long time Christie had wanted to do something extra for her hair. She felt it appeared dull and was thinning. Hair VolumeTM became her resource.
C
hristie encountered hair loss, which was very frustrating. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have tried many things before, but to no avail.â&#x20AC;?
Read about Hair Volumeâ&#x201E;˘ Christie has worked in a pharmacy all her life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe that is why I was skeptical, when I first read about Hair Volume. I am always studying the declarations very carefully and there was something about this product,
which made me realize that it was special.â&#x20AC;?
Very positive experience â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today I have taken the Hair Volume tablets for 38 days and I can truly feel an improvement and less hair loss. My nails are also stronger and less grooved. All in all a very positive experience. I will definitely continue taking this productâ&#x20AC;?, relates a happy Christie.
DID YOU KNOW? Grey hairs can begin to appear due to a lack of copper in your diet. Hair Volumeâ&#x201E;˘ tablets contain copper, which affects melanin production to help avoid grey hairs.
YOUR HAIR TABLET Hair Volumeâ&#x201E;˘ nourishes the hair roots with nutrients like biotin, zinc, b-vitamins and horsetail, all important for healthy hair. Hair Volume also contains procynidin B2 found in apples, which has shown to benefit hair follicle activity. Available at participating pharmacies and health food stores.

Uncle Lou’s extravagant gift brings tears of joy Mary Cook
Columnist
editorial@theheritageemc.ca
Gazette Lifestyle - We could hear the horn long before we could see the car. It was a horn like no other heard in all of Renfrew County. We knew it was Uncle Lou! He usually let Mother know when he was coming. But sometimes, he just arrived, like it was an everyday occurrence to drive all the way from New York City just to visit us out on the farm. By the time his big black Buick pulled into the yard, driving down our long lane off the Northcote Side Road, Everett had run to open the gate wide, Audrey had replaced the Eaton’s catalogue for the orange wrapping papers in the outhouse, Mother had changed her apron to one spanking clean, and the rest of us circled the yard jumping up and down like jackrabbits. Even Father had stopped whatever he was doing in the barns, and joined us, ready to greet Uncle Lou and his black Buick with the big shiny brass American Eagle on the rad of the car. Mother, as usual, whenever her brother came from New York, was crying. It took me a long time to
learn the difference between crying because you were sad or crying because you were overcome with joy. Mother was overcome with joy! Uncle Lou pulled the car up close to the back door of the house, and when he got out, he swung Mother around like she was a toy doll, and then he pumped Father’s hand, and then grabbed each of us into a bear hug, one that took my breath away. Uncle Lou never came empty handed. And I tried not to make it look too obvious, but I couldn’t help looking into the back of the car, and there were boxes upon boxes, and in the front seat were brown paper bags. And I knew without a doubt, he had stopped in Renfrew and bought bags of oranges, bananas, grapes, and a bag of lemons for Mother...all things we would never dream of adding to our Saturday morning shopping list. It was like Christmas...right in the middle of summer! I couldn’t take my eyes off the back of the car. But Uncle Lou didn’t seem to be in any great hurry to unload his luggage or the boxes. He did reach in and take out the bags of fruit though, which caused Mother to shed another great pile of tears! Emerson, who loved cars, was walking around and around the Buick like it was made of gold. In fact, we all thought the big Eagle
on the rad was pure gold, until Uncle Lou corrected us and said it was brass. Emerson was rubbing his hand over it and making clucking sounds of approval. “Sure like that bird,” he kept saying. With his arm tight around Mother’s waist, Uncle Lou headed into the house, and ordered the boys to unload the car. First to come out were the many boxes, some with Macy’s Department Store printed on them, others just plain boxes tied with ribbons and string. Then came Uncle Lou’s luggage. Just looking at his suitcases, all made of smooth tan cowhide, confirmed in my young mind once again, that Uncle Lou had to be the richest man in all of New York City. Uncle Lou also had a good memory. Without even opening the boxes, he knew exactly which one was to go to each of us. Of course, for Mother, there were yards of beautiful silk material, and a purse made of genuine leather in bright red! I couldn’t imagine such luxury! My box held a beautiful pair of white ankle stockings, with real lace around the tops, just like bad Marguirite wore to the Northcote School, and books...how I loved owning my very own books. Then, all that was left was a box which Uncle Lou kept apart from all the rest. He held it under his arm,
and I wondered if he had brought something by mistake, because he didn’t look like he was in any hurry to hand it to someone. When we were finished with opening all the wonderful gifts, Uncle Lou finally handed Mother the box from under his arm. “It’s for the whole family,” he said, but Mother was to open it. Mother sat down on a kitchen chair with the box in her lap. We five children circled around her, and I could feel excitement right down to my toes. She seemed to take forever to untie the strings, and then she peered in the box, and was into the tears again. What she took out of the box almost caused the rest of us to cry along with her. There nestled in mounds of white tissue paper was a brass American Eagle exactly like the one on Uncle Lou’s big black Buick! Only this one was on a pedestal. Emerson, of course, wanted to hold it. But Mother had a deathgrasp on it, and she kept rubbing it with the tail of her white apron. Where to put it was the next question. Emerson, never short on ideas thought it could be attached to the hood of the old Model T. The old Model T, missing a door, painted two different colours, and with a rad that had to be opened every few miles to pour in more water! And so it was decided. It would
sit on top of the ice box. The new ice box that Grandfather had bought from Barnett’s in Renfrew and now sat kitty-cornered in the kitchen. Audrey was told to take off the geranium plant, give the top a good wipe with a clean dishcloth, and when all that was done, Mother got up and as if she was laying a cornerstone at an historic building, she put the American brass eagle in the very centre of the ice box. Not a word was spoken as we stood there like mutes, admiring this new and wonderful addition to our old log house. There was some discussion about its being put on the twig table in the parlour with the bible, but Audrey pointed out that the parlour was seldom used, and no visitor would ever see it. And so it was decided. The American Eagle, identical to the one on Uncle Lou’s Buick, would have its home on our oak ice box, where it would be the first thing anyone would notice, coming in the kitchen. Yes, we all agreed. That’s where this treasure belonged, and where it stayed all the time we lived on the farm in Renfrew County. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

“The world is not ending. Brick and mortar stores are not going away:” Local entrepreneur defends Kingston’s downtown By Hollie Pratt-Campbell
events are taking place over the summer months that make downtown shopping even more fun, such as the sidewalk sale July 3 – 6, and Princess Promenades on Aug. 6 and Sept. 20, which will see Princess Street closed off to vehicles and all the stores move out to the streets. “I think the big dig [last year] really hurt a lot of people. I think they handled it as best they could but it was still a nightmare. There was hardly anybody downtown. But that’s over and I really feel like this is going to be the summer that’s going to turn it all around.”

Rogue Boutique owner Shannon Sanders grew up in Kingston, and has always loved the city’s downtown. This passion contributed to her decision to open up her business there in October, 2013. She describes Rogue Boutique as having a “unique and eclectic assortment of home items,” good for shoppers looking for a gift for someone that has everything or is a little bit more funky with their tastes. “When the Olden Green closed - the own9%!23 ers retired last year - there wasn’t really a gift store downtown,” Sanders says. “And there aren’t too many alternative-based stores in Rogue Boutique owner Shannon SandPhoto/Hollie Pratt-Campbell Kingston.

Dash and business control failures Gazette Lifestyle - “Hello Brian, I have a 1998 Mazda B-4000 4x4 truck and I have a small issue with it that has stumped many a mechanic and auto-part store representative. The speedometer and odometer stop working after only a few kilometers but all other gauges in the instrument cluster continue to work. During winter they both work for a little longer, I assume because it takes the engine longer to warm up, and sometimes in the summer will not work at any time during the day. I have also noticed if it is extremely cold (-20 and lower) the instruments will work for a few kilometers, stop working, then if the truck is parked for some time and started, the instruments will work again but not as long as first thing in the morning. The speed sensor unit has been changed on the rear axle and this has not corrected or improved the situation and it’s still the same. I have spoken with Mazda and Ford reps and they cannot provide any insights to the exact cause. Finally, except for this issue the truck is in
Cheers, Troy This Mazda’s PCM (Power-train Control Module) receives vehicle speed information from the antilock brake system rear wheel speed sensor. The raw signal from this sensor on the rear axle goes directly to the anti-lock brake module where the signal is corrected for tire diameter. Then the corrected signal is sent to the PCM, speed control, cluster, etc. If the sensor on the diff has been replaced with no change, the problem will be found in one of the following areas; 1) Signal harness from the diff sensor to the module. 2) Internal fault of the ABS or Power-train control module. 3) Signal harness from the PCM to the cluster. 4) Internal fault of the cluster. 5) Poor grounds for any of the above. Based on the observation that more than the speedometer/odome-
ter stops working in the cold, I suspect the problem is in the cluster or the wiring that feeds it. The cheapest way to try to fix this would be to obtain a used cluster from a salvage yard. The alternative is to take the truck to a very experienced Mazda B4000 or Ford Ranger technician and be willing to pay for his or her time to check the wiring and modules. At labour rates of $100/hour or more, trying out a used cluster will very likely be much cheaper. “Hi Brian, I Googled parking lots for new unsold cars and was astonished by the millions of cars that have never been sold and are parked in mega lots to rot. Would these cars not be better off recycled. Maybe today’s new cars wouldn’t be so expensive if the manufacturers didn’t yearly make more cars than demand calls for. If everyone refused to buy a brand new car for one year I think maybe the manufacturers would get the hint. Your thoughts?” Debby Some of the information received on the internet can be a bit of an exaggeration (hard to believe, I know) but as with many things on the web,

sometimes there’s a bit of truth as well. Prior to the bankruptcy and bail-outs of two large Detroit-based automakers, it was a common practice for these companies to produce far more vehicles than their dealers were ordering. Then, at the end of a model year, deep discounts and incentives were applied to move these mountains of metal, often at very low profit margins. While I’m not entirely conversant with European or Asian production practices, I’m pretty safe in stating that everything produced for the North American market, does end up on the road eventually. After the North American bailouts, carmakers seem to have learned their lessons and are periodically shutting down assembly lines for short periods of time when inventories start to climb and get stagnant. But if you see them return to the end-of-model year deep discounts, you may be excused for believing they’re back to their old tricks. What the last recession proved is that if a major manufacturer doesn’t have some degree of flexibility built into their financial planning and production schedules, (especially when it comes to cutting back in low demand times) they are doomed to failure and I’m not a fan of bailing them out again. As for putting off purchasing a vehicle for a year, many consumers don’t have much choice, but when you consider how many of our tax
dollars went into the bailouts, perhaps we might be owed a new car from certain makers.

Tune-Up Tips
Performance Test Controls and Fan Speeds Radiator and Condensor AC Lines and Fittings
By Christine Henderson
There are various components under the hood and beyond that should be inspected. For starters, make certain to have a general inspection done of the entire vehicle, including the ignition system, tires, and brakes. Also make sure the fluid services are addressed. This is also a good time to replace any worn hoses and drive belts. Few motorists overlook having their engine oil and filter changed. But many neglect to change their other fluids. Brake fluid flushes are important because the fluid can become contaminated and not compress properly over time. Transmission fluid is also important because, much like engine oil, it is designed to keep the inner workings of the transmission lubricated. It breaks down over time, thereby leaving your transmission vulnerable to overheating and failure. If your fluids donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to be changed, then ensure they are topped up before heading out.

49 YEARS OF COMPLETE AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE The good news is that tune-ups are not needed nearly as often on todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s modern car as they were on carbureted vehicles. While adjustments were once required at least twice yearly, most vehicles only require a minor tune-up once a year. A major tune-up is required every couple of years, depending on how many kilometers you drive yearly. Your technician will be checking things like spark plugs, ignition wires, filters, and timing. Spark plugs and ignition wires are responsible or carrying electricity from the ignition coil to the cylinder. When worn, these parts must be replaces. Wires break down over time, causing electricity to escape.

Most manufacturers now claim that you can drive for 160,000 km before requiring new spark plugs. But other ignition components should be replaced prior to that, including ignition wires, the PCV valve, and the fuel filter. Be sure to check your ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manual.

Most vehicles have a fuel filter that needs to be replaced. This is a great time for the fuel injection to be flushed of any carbon particles that may damage or clog the fuel injectors and rail. Fuel injectors work by spraying a fine mist of fuel into the combustion chamber, and can easily become clogged or damaged by carbon. Carbon can gradually build within the engine causing a host of problems. A fuel injection service will flush this carbon from the engine, eliminating potential blockages.

Ah, nature. Besides the mosquitoes, nothing says summer like a getaway to the great outdoors. As you wind down from the stress of packing up and driving to the cottage or campsite, the CSA Group, a leader in testing and certification, wants to remind you to stay safe on land and water this summer with these tips. Boats and Cottages * Always wear a personal flotation device and never consume alcohol while operating any vehicle. * Make sure that certified carbon monoxide (CO) and smoke alarms are properly installed outside all sleeping areas. * When opening your cottage for the season, carefully inspect all appliances and electrical cords for damage from rodents or insects. * Ensure boats and cottages are equipped with proper emergency safety equipment, including first aid kits and fire extinguishers.

Places to explore and things to experience
Mark Bergin
A berry good cause By Mark Bergin Columnist
Gazette Lifestyle – Rev. Dr. Andrew Johnston, the pastor of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, is proud of his flock. “I am so pleased with the dynamic of this congregation,” he said. “They think beyond themselves to the common good. We want to do something for our community and help others do something as well.” To that end, St. Andrew’s is hosting a Strawberry Social on June 28 at 2 p.m. Tickets, which are only $5 each, are available by calling the Church office at 613-546-6316. I wouldn’t sit back and hope to drop in on the day of the event. The hall is limited to 90 people. This one is going to sell out.
The strawberry social will support a local non-profit organization. “Home Based Housing is a locally-based, generated, supported and effective organization,” said Johnston. “They are exactly the kind of organization that will help grow our city and our humanity.” Home Base Housing develops and maintains affordable housing in our community. The group also works with other agencies and organizations in helping to meet client housing needs. Clients of the organization are diverse. Anyone 16 years old and over who is homeless, at-risk of losing their housing or who exists in an unsafe situation is eligible. Home Base Housing develops safe and affordable housing, emergency

shelters and support services for youth, adults and families. The organization’s Supportive Housing program provides furnished, rent-geared-to-income housing for single adults. They can help chronically homeless individuals find suitable accommodations. Home Base Housing’s Supportive Housing program works with those who are facing life challenges: financial; substance abuse; mental health; developmental disabilities; head injuries; or physical disabilities. Some of their facilities are wheelchair accessible. They also assist with social outings, potluck dinners and community kitchens. Services include advocacy, budgeting, life skills, help with emotional and mental health issues, stress management and social skills. The guest speaker at the St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church strawberry social will be Mary Cook. You can expect her speech to be fun and informative. “I don’t write a speech,” she said. “Basically, I’m a storyteller. I’m going to reminisce about the 1930s and do a presentation and tell stories of the 30s. I’ll have some 30s artifacts with me.” For more than half a century, Mary has worked as a journalist. In the 1940s, during high school, she started to write for the old Ottawa Journal newspaper. “I bought a $10 camera, rode my bicycle and worked as their stringer.” After she got married and moved to Sarnia, she went to work at the radio station there. She hosted a show called Tea Time with Mary Cook. When her family moved to Windsor, CBC hired her. She’s written 11 books and is working on another. She hopes to have some of her books with her at the strawberry social. When we spoke last week, she was celebrating her wedding anniversary. “I’ve been married to the same man for 62 years,” she said. “By this point, it’s just another day.” They have three children and five grandchildren.
St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church is hosting a strawberry social in support of Kingston’s Home Base Housing. The event takes place on June 28. Tickets are available at the church office. Photo/Mark Bergin “I’m very active,” she said. “Thank God I have good health, other than the normal aches and pains of aging.” Mary Cook was with CBC for 48 years. Her mandate was to serve as the voice of Eastern Ontario, from the Quebec border to Belleville and North to Algonquin Park. That’s a lot of territory and an equally large number of stories. She’ll no doubt serve up some surprises about our own region. “I absolutely love Kingston,” she said. “I’ve spent many, many days in Kingston learning and telling interesting stories. There is a wealth of human interest stories here. It’s a lovely city and I fell in love with it.” She said her aunt ran The Pickwick Book Shop in Kingston. The $5 price of tickets for the strawberry social is simply to recover costs for the event. Each
ticket will also have an envelope attached for a donation to Home Based Housing. And if you’re worried about your diet, have no fears. Rev. Johnston assured me that “Church strawberry socials are considered a charitable event and, like Girl Guide cookies and church bake sales, have a dispensation from calories.” To reserve a spot at the strawberry social, call the church office at 613-546-6316. For more information about St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, visit http://www.standrewskingston. org/; to find out more about Home Base Housing, go to their website at http://kingstonhomebase.ca/. Look for Mary Cook’s weekly column in the Kingston Heritage and Frontenac Gazette. Mark Bergin on Twitter @markaidanbergin
