No suitable site found for Sharbot Lake East Basin boat launch, Council told By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News — There won’t be a new boat launch on the East Basin of Sharbot Lake any time in the near future, following a report from Kyle Labbett, waste management supervisor presented at Central Frontenac’s regular Council meeting last week in Arden. “There are seven road allowances owned by the municipality that run into the East Basin plus a communal piece of land owned by the subdivision on Mountvale Point Road,” Labbett said in his report. “These residents own communal land on the edge of the lake and there is already an existing boat launch.” However, the residents aren’t interested in making their boat launch public, Gazette Events – Sadie Baillargeon, Sarah and dad Gerald Guigue check out the merry-go-round on the midway as the Verona Lions he said. The study was launched Club held its annual jamboree last weekend. Photo/Craig Bakay

On a carousel

after residents on the East Basin, through the Sharbot Lake Property Owners Association, expressed their concerns about water access only properties being inaccessible to some water vehicles during high-water times. The only public accesses to Sharbot Lake are in the West Basin meaning that East Basin residents and service vehicles (ie septic servicing barges and emergency vehicles) must pass under the bridge on Road 38. During periods of high water, particularly in the spring, many boats cannot successfully navigate the passage. In his report, Labbett said that the seven road allowances are unacceptable as they are all 66 feet wide with no possibility of expansion making maneuvering difficult at best to say nothing of parking.

Gazette News — For many years since amalgamation, Central Frontenac Township has been holding its summer Council meetings in its member districts — Kennebec, Olden and Hinchinbrooke. And while there is generally decent public attendance at Piccadilly Hall and Mountain Grove, nowhere are these meetings better attended than at Kennebec Hall in Arden. And last week’s meeting was no exception. Granted, theArden firefighters barbecue up some hamburgs and hotdogs, and there’s an impressive pot-luck collection of salads and deserts that no doubt bring out some attendees. For others, maybe it’s a kind of once-a-year entertainment thing. But unquestionably, it’s also an opportunity for several groups to get the ear of Council and this year eight delegations were on the agenda. Granted, one was federal Liberal hopeful Philippe Archambault doing a little campaigning and the Big Clear Lake Association representative Theresa Smith sent regrets, but the remaining six delegations had plenty to say, even if much of it has been heard before. An exception to this was representatives of the relatively new Kennebec Youth Committee. Originally scheduled delegates Cody Matson and Devon Scott were unable to attend because of job commitments but replacements Eddie Brown and John-Paul Kehoe managed to show their elders how to present to Council.

“We’re a new group under the rec committee get used to Legion hours. with our own agenda,” Brown said. “We’d like to “You can’t get something early in the morning see the rink in Arden revamped and we’re prepared but you can get things late at night.” to do the work ourselves.

Committee going after $50K grant for work on trail in Sharbot Lake By Craig Bakay Reporter

Gazette News — The multi-use cultural committee (MUCC) looking into the possibility of building a centre in Sharbot Lake as well as enhancements to the K & P Trail from Railway Park to the beach got approval to go after a federal grant of up to $50,000 at last week’s Central Frontenac Council meeting in Arden.

“Contributions equal to or greater than 35 per cent of the total eligible costs must be from sources other than the federal government,” said committee chair, Dep. Mayor Frances Smith. “They can be from the applicant organization and cash or in-kind contributions. “We plan to do a lot of the work ourselves.” She said they plan to do brushing and add

gravel to the trail as well as adding some lighting and bollards. “In 2011, the MUCC initiated a planning study (previous funding assistance was received from Frontenac County and FCFDC) to investigate the feasibility of constructing a multi-use centre to be located in the existing trailhead area across the street from the municipal administration office,” Smith said. “Although this study concluded that the development of a centre was not feasible at this time, it is the municipality’s intention to retain this development as a future option as the community and trail use grows. “The study however also highlighted the short-term importance of reinforcing the linkage between the beach, downtown and this main parking area which is currently used by both visitors who leave their cars and walk the trails and by those that trailer motorized vehicles for access to the trails. “This location is therefore a key component of the trail and the work identified in this application strongly supports the vision established in the previous study.”

REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL - #PW-F03-2014 ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES: CONCEPTUAL DESIGN FOR A REPLACEMENT FIRE HALL

••• Central Frontenac Public Works Manager Mike Richardson gave his final report to Council at last week’s regular meeting in Arden. Richardson headed into a welldeserved retirement at the end of last week. As of this writing, Council had yet to hire a replacement of Richardson but did enter into a closed session to discuss the topic. For the record, Richardson’s last report: “Brushing is slow and so is grass cutting because manpower is being chewed up with other projects.” ••• Public Works Manager Mike Richardson reported to Council that the Johnston Road Bridge contracts have been signed and work is expected to start soon. This will require a road closure of up to a week, he said. As to the road closure, Richardson said: “if there’s an emergency, they’ll have to fill in the hole and re-dig it after the emergency.” Work on Wagerville Road started July 5, he said.

Like the best things about Summer this deal won’t last long.

“I talked to (Fire Chief) Bill Young and he said they can usually get the fire boat into the East Basin but if they need to, they go to private property owners and say ‘we need to launch,’” said Dep. Mayor Frances Smith.

how much the Township planned to invest and where those funds would come from. “Are we talking about the $130,000 a year from Gas Tax?” she said. “Right now, any investment would be from our cash flow statement,” said McGovern. “It would be in the $200,000 to $500,000 range.” Mayor Janet Gutowski urged caution and said “you’ll come to Council before making any investment.” But she was also optimistic. “I think we should be taking every opportunity to better,” she said. “Twenty thousand dollars more would make a big difference in this municipality.” The bylaw authorizing investment passed, with Coun. Purdon, Phillip Smith and Heather Fox voting against.

Gazette News — Central Frontenac plans to get into the investment game but don’t expect taxes to take an immediate drop from huge profits pouring in. Treasurer Michael McGovern was joined at Council last week in Arden by Jason Hagan, who administers municipal investments as an employee of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO). Hagan explained The One Investment Program, the system AMO uses for municipalities to invest. “I’m no investment guru, just the program manager,” he said. “(But) I know how the program works and how to help municipalities do more. “We don’t intend for there to be any significant amount of risk in any of the portfolios (and) we guarantee any investment is compliant with the Municipal Act.” He said the program administers about $460 million in investments on behalf of member Ontario municipalities. He said The One is a “comingled” investment program designed for the public sector in 1993 and jointly operated by AMO and CHUMS Financing Corporation. He said it was designed by municipalities and about 95 Ontario municipalities invest. Its portfolios include Money Market funds, Bond funds, Universe Corporate

Bonds, and Canadian Equities. Under the 2014 Federal Gas Tax Agreement, municipalities are allowed to ‘direct’ payments to The One, via AMO as a ‘delegate,’ he said. Coun. John Purdon expressed concern at this. “We have a tendency of using all our (Gas Tax) allotment in the year we receive it,” he said. “I’m wondering would this be worthwhile. “And what about fees?” “Rates of return are net of fees,” Hagan said. “We do use our Gas Tax funds each year but if we wanted to designate it for a project in three years, this would be the way to do it,” McGovern said. Currently, the only ‘investment’ the Township has is a bank account. “We’re relatively young in investing,” Purdon said. “We have an Asset Management Plan but we’ve yet to establish a long-term financial plan and before we get into investing, I think we should restrict ourselves. “I’m happy to move forward and we can do better than a bank account but we don’t want to do worse.” Coun. Phillip Smith agreed. “I’d like to see equity removed from the portfolio,” he said. Dep. Mayor Frances Smith wanted to know

But the Gananoque area resident didn’t know at the time the impact his purchase would have on the staff at Hotel Dieu Hospital where the new table was installed in April. He learned that when he recently met surgical area manager Mary McKay and registered nurse Willie Leadbeater who took him to OR Room 8 to see the table. Choking back tears of joy, excitement and gratitude, Mary thanked Jack for his generous

gift. Prior to the arrival of the table that can be adjusted in many different ways with the push of a button, surgical room staff would often have to move heavy operating room tables from other ORs in order to provide certain types of surgeries. The new table means less stress and strain on staff and a much more efficient process overall. It replaces an operating room table that was 30 years old. It was a model which had been discontinued years ago, which made finding replacement parts impossible. It should have been replaced years ago, but the hospital did not have the resources available to do so. Willie explained the table is already being used for many different types of surgeries such as hip and knee replacements, shoulders and colon cancer. “It’s just what we needed.” In the past year, 7,200 day surgeries were performed at Hotel Dieu. Jack says that supporting our hospitals is “just common sense. As I get older, I’m using the hospitals. They help me, so I help them,” he says. “I give because it makes me happy to give. You get a lot of satisfaction if you help people.” He supports Kingston’s hospitals through gifts of stock, which means he also benefits by avoiding capital gains taxes. “I can’t give you $300 million to build a hospital, but I can give you something that /UHKFdn you need.” /UHKF

Heritage News –Vision is a sense that many of us take for granted, but imagine what it would be like to lose your vision. Each day 120 Canadians begin to lose their sight and struggle with the challenges that come along with that loss. That is where the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) and their amazing volunteers come in and now you could be one of them. The CNIB in Kingston is looking for volunteers for their Vision Mates program and their Peer Support group progam, two programs that long time volunteer Adrienne Bradley is very familiar with. “I have been volunteering with CNIB since 1999,” explained Bradley who initially volunteered because of an ad she saw in the paper. “The CNIB was looking for volunteers who enjoy reading and walking and those are two of my absolute favorite things to do, so I investigated and thought it was a great opportunity.” Bradley was matched with an elderly woman named Muriel and the two immediately hit it off and both looked forward to their Tuesday afternoons together each week. They took walks together, they occasionally went shopping, but most of the time Bradley read or chatted with Muriel. “I saw her through many stages over the four years

and it was very rewarding,” added Bradley. “Sadly, Muriel died in 2003 and after that I was not sure I wanted to take on another client because I started to travel each winter. I looked for other opportunities with CNIB and luckily there was an opening in the New Horizons, New Dreams Peer Support program and I have been working with that program ever since.” Bradley is the ‘sightedsidekick’ to a Rick, a volunteer with low vision. Together the two of them run a six to eight week program each spring and fall for people who have low to no vision. The program focuses on the challenges that come along with this adjustment and they work through common issues with the group. “We help people learn about what is out there for them now. It is a huge adjustment for people and it’s amazing how much we can help them in terms of mobility and organization for their life going forward,” said Bradley. “People sometimes think that their life is over, but that really isn’t the case.” The program constantly receives positive feedback and also helps people with low vision form a support group outside of their friends and family. Bradley adds that it is important for clients to interact with people who are having similar issues and work through them in that way. In order to educate the

community more about these programs, the CNIB in Kingston is running information and orientation sessions for people that may be interested in volunteering. This is the first time the CNIB has done something like this and Volunteer Coordinator, Tracy Holland hopes that it will bring positive results. “The idea behind it is to bring awareness about the CNIB to the public,” explained Holland. “There is no obligation when they come to the session, but we hope that people will proceed to the next step and fill out an application to volunteer. We really just want people to learn more about what we do and what they can do to help.” Bradley encourages people to come out to the sessions and open themselves up to the amazing opportunities CNIB offers. “I found it very rewarding and I would really recommend it to people who have two to three hours a week to spare on a consistent basis. I would do it again in a heartbeat if I wasn’t travelling in the winter months. It is very fulfilling and rewarding.” Volunteer information sessions are being held on Monday, July 7 from 1 to 3 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. and Thursday July 17 from 1 to 3 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. at Conservatory Pond Retirement Residence, 1499 Stoneridge Drive in Kingston.

ack Keyes may never take a seat at the head of a special table that he recently purchased – but he understands the important role it will have in providing care for hundreds of people from across Southeastern Ontario. In December, Jack received a “wish list” of equipment needed in Kingston’s university hospitals and he decided to make a difference through the purchase of a $32,000 operating room table. Together with the Town of Gananoque and the local Legion, Jack had purchased a similar table

In Our Opinion

In the grand scheme of things, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;busyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is not all its cracked up to be Craig Bakay Reporter

editorial@theheritageemc.ca

Gazette Column â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Oh the things people send you on Facebook. I got a kick out of â&#x20AC;&#x153;how many goals is Germany going to score â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a Brazillion?â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would like to apologize to anyone I have not offended yet â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get to you shortly.â&#x20AC;? I also enjoy things like photos of cats driving tractors and anything that justifies my unhealthy addiction to playing music (such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a musician is somebody who packs $2,000 worth of gear into a $1,000 automobile to travel 100 miles for a $50 gig.â&#x20AC;?) But recently, something appeared on my timeline that made me think. It was simply white words on a black background: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stop the glorification of busy.â&#x20AC;? Strangely enough, this appeared shortly after I read a piece in the journal Science wherein a study put people alone with their thoughts in a room for 15 minutes. The study participants were given a signaling device, which would let them out of the room before the 15 minutes was up but by using

the device, they would receive an unpleasant electric shock. Participants were administered the shock before entering the room so they would know it was unpleasant. This supposedly eliminated the possibility of them using the device purely out of curiosity. Rather than subject themselves to 15 minutes devoid of external stimulation, 12 of 18 males gave themselves the shock. Six of 24 females took the shock. The study was done at the University of Virginia. Now, this study, like the vast majority of studies ever conducted, probably means nothing. But it does somewhat speak to the glorification of busy. U.S. President John Kennedy once mused that â&#x20AC;&#x153;too often we hold fast to the clichĂŠs of our forebears, subjecting all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.â&#x20AC;? The idea that busy is always a good thing strikes me as one of those things that simply hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been thought out enough. As children, we are often punished for being idle. I remember in public school a teacher giving the girl behind me a pin to poke

me with whenever she would see me â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;daydreaming,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; something I often did (and still do). But you know what, a good daydream is often the best medicine for dealing with our modern world and its emphasis on squeezing every last nickel out of a business idea (note that pennies werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t good enough and so we eliminated them). Many people excel at being busy and are often rewarded for it. But at the end of the day, do they really accomplish more or does it just take them more work to accomplish the same amount we daydreamers do with less effort? People in positions of authority tend to value busy. But one thing they never mention in those fancy management courses is that forcing people to be busy, busy, busy can very often lead to stress, which causes illness, which causes downtime and therefore less gets done in the long run. Or maybe not. Maybe I should just sit down and think about this for 15 minutes or so. â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘ In the Gazette story on the Sharbot Lake Food Bank two weeks ago, the phone number listed was incorrect.

Frontenac Gazette - Thursday, July 17, 2014

A womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right to birth control On June 27, a Calgary doctor made headlines when she put a sign up in the walk-in clinic where she works. The sign informed patients that she would not prescribe birth control while she was on duty. Not surprisingly, this sign generated a lot of backlash and now many are questioning whether or not doctors have the right to say no to prescribing the pill. The doctor in question claims that prescribing the pill goes against her religious beliefs, but according to The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario and their Human Rights Code, this may not be acceptable. The code states that, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If physicians have moral or religious beliefs which affect or may affect the provision of medical services, the College advises physicians to proceed cautiously with an understanding of the implications related to human rights.â&#x20AC;? So what does all of this mean for the doctor in Calgary and for all of the other doctors that feel the same way? It may not mean much but the CPSO is now looking for public input on the issue. As part of their regular review of policy guidelines CPSO wants to know what the public thinks and after a fair bit of input in 2008, the last time the Code was revised, there is sure to be some heated discussions this time too. The CPSO skirted around the issues in 2008. They tried to take a more definitive stance, but faced a lot of resistance from the Ontario Medical Association. This time around, many feel that a solid statement is necessary, but again, CPSO is dancing around the issue with President Marc Gable commenting that, â&#x20AC;&#x153;While the world has changed, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily mean that the policy will change.â&#x20AC;? The college has opened its website for comments about the policy until Aug. 5, after which a working group will produce a revised draft policy. Debate on the website is already heated and we urge more people to speak up. Birth control has been legal in Canada since 1969 and is something that should be available to everyone who wants to use it. Women should be able to walk into a clinic and receive a legal prescription for birth control if they so desire. We are extremely lucky in Canada to have the rights and freedoms we have and our access to medical treatments is som

Kingston Penguins embark on a great lake adventure mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Gazette News - Last summer a group of women attempted to swim across Lake Ontario in relay fashion to set a world record. Sadly, they weren’t successful, but as members of the Kingston Penguins swim team watched their effort, they were inspired to take on the challenge themselves. “Last September we started working towards setting our own world record,” said coach and member of the Kingston YMCA Penguins Vicki Keith. “This is the first time we have attempted something like this and a relay on this scale and we’re calling it our Great Lake Adventure.” The Kingston Y Penguins swim team was created 13 years ago as a team for kids with physical disabilities and their able-bodied brothers and sisters. The current team consists of eight swimmers, four able-bodied and four with physical disabilities. Team members range in age from 13-53. The swimmers will swim in three-

hour shifts during their five-day, 305-kilometer adventure and Keith has done a lot of planning to ensure that the swim will go as smoothly as possible. “Everyone will have an assigned time of day to swim. I wanted to make sure that Abi, who is 13, will be swimming in daylight and in the morning when everyone is fresh and the water is calmer,” explained Ketih. “Natalie and Jenna Lambert and myself will swim at night because we have night experience. We really tried to make sure that the swimmers were also swimming when they felt most comfortable and were at their best.” For many of the swimmers the challenge will be swimming in colder waters and dealing with seaweed and fish, something they certainly aren’t use to in chlorinated pools. “I don’t really like fish or seaweed and I’m not really a lake person but today was the first time I got in and didn’t cry so that was exciting,” said team member Natasha Dobson. “I’m getting over my fear and it’s getting easier.” As a team, their main goal and

strategy is to remain positive and support each other. “Each of us have our strengths and weaknesses and when someone may be having a rough time there are people who are there to offer encouragement and guidance,” said team member Natalie Lambert. “Supporting each other is really important and I think as long as we can do that we will make it through and have a great time.” The team will be on a boat when they aren’t swimming and a kayak will be moving along with them while they are in the water. The original goal was to complete the swim in five days, but Keith is more focused on completing the swim than doing it quickly. “We start on Monday, July 14 at 10 a.m. and we’ll swim until we get here,” added Keith. “We’re going from Burlington to Kingston because that means we are swimming with the prevailing winds and we are swimming from colder waters to warmer waters. It also means we finish in Kingston and as Kingstonians that was really important.”

The team is also swimming in support of the Kingston YMCA Strong Kids Campaign with a focus on the Penguins swim team. The funds will help young people with disabilities continue to learn about their abilities and develop their skills.

Grape arbour represented a place of solace in the 30’s Columnist

editorial@theheritageemc.ca

mat of straw in its place. Mother would move a wash stand into the very back of the cavity, and Audrey and she would take enough dishes out of the kitchen cupboard to stock the wash stand for the season. A bake table from the summer kitchen was moved out; two benches from the drive shed, and the big wood swing with the double seats helped fill the cavity, and the grape arbour was ready for business. We still ate our breakfasts in the house, but unless it was pouring rain, our noon meal was eaten outside. Father tried to tell Mother using the grape arbour as a dining room added to her work load 10 fold, but Mother always said it was worth the effort. We carried the food out on trays covered with sparkling white tea towels which remained on the steaming bowls and platters all the time we were eating. Heaven forbid that a fly would come within a 2012 country mile of something that was going into our mouths. It didn’t matter how hot the day, the grape arbour was always cool inside. The big

the vines to form the arbour, or if they grew that way naturally... although I strongly suspect Mother had asked Father to coax the long vines into shape. At any rate, natural or otherwise, the grape arbour was a high arch of green leaves, completely closed in on the north, east and west sides, with only the south portion facing the old log house open for easy access. I thought the hollow was enormous. As big as our kitchen it was. And Father and Mother could easily stand up inside the arbour, so it would have had to be at least six feet from ground to the top vines. As soon as the leaves formed, the hollow was immediately turned into an outdoor room. At the start of the summer season the grass inside was thick and green, but after a couple weeks of constant use, the grass shrivelled up and died and left a soft

goodness knows what all...subjects which I knew for a fact peppered their talks in the grape arbour. But they kept their voices low and the big green haven sheltered them from young prying ears and the world outside. When I did have the privilege of having the grape arbour to myself, I would take my dolls out there, and the cavity would become my house. I would rearrange the benches to form rooms, and the table would be the bed, and I would slip into a world of fantasy where I alone would have admission. There were many quiet times spent in the grape arbour. With Mother. These were private and special times. She with her sewing basket on the ground beside her chair. Me sitting beside her listening to tales of her life in New York City before she moved to the farm in Renfrew County, and I would think there was no better place to be in the whole wide world, than in that most secluded of spots, the grape arbour.

flat leaves kept the hot rays from penetrating, and if there was a breeze, they still allowed the air to circulate, so it was a most pleasant place to spend an hour at noon time. Father, instead of going into the kitchen to the creton couch, as he did every day after his noon hour dinner, would tilt back an old weather-beaten chair against the table and have his mid-day nap, which he seemed to be able to slip into with the greatest of ease inside or outside the house. When the meal was over, Audrey would bring out the big white granite dish pan filled with hot soapy water, and even the clean-up from the meal was done outside. Sport, our old collie stood at the ready, waiting for whatever morsel was left on a plate. Plopped right on the ground. No need for a dog dish outside. On Saturday morning, as a rule, the grape arbour was off limits to everyone but my sister Audrey. Her best friend Iva Thom would come to visit, after each had done her chores, and with their embroidery work, or knitting they would head for the old wood two seater swing. I was never allowed to go near them. Mother said they had earned a time of privacy. How I longed to listen in on their grown-up talk about boys and spooning, and kissing and

Upper Canada Village is real, not virtual By Mark Bergin Columnist

Treat yourself to the calming breeze that often blows off the nearby St. Lawrence River as you wander the dirt roads of the past at Upper Canada Village. The historic setting is operated by the St. Lawrence Parks Commission. The site, one of Ontario’s tourist gems, brings the past to life in a working setting. As you explore the large park, you’ll experience life as it was in the 1860s, the decade of Canada’s Confederation. It was a time when men and women worked long hours, toiling in the fields or tending to the family’s basic needs. Children worked to help keep the family productive. Their ongoing chores prepared them with skills they would need as adults. All ages can enjoy the Village. Young children love the animals, along with the

sights, scents and sounds, all of which are enticing, but not overwhelming. They may get a nose butt from a playful pig, but there’s no threat of being hit by a car. There’s nothing virtual about Upper Canada Village. This place is real. Adults will appreciate the slow pace. This is life as it was 150 years ago. There are more than 40 historical buildings in this beautiful riverside village. They include a tin shop, cheese factory, tenant farm, cabinetmaker, church, dressmaker, a printing office, a steam-powered flour mill, sawmill, woolen factory and an engine house, where you’ll find a hand-pumped fire engine. You’ll be able to see a shoemaker plying his trade, a blacksmith shoeing horses, and visit a one-room school house. Cookies bake in open

fireplaces. Hundreds of loaves of bread bake in the oven. Farmers tend to their fields and livestock. Horses and oxen provide the power to pull any manner of things. There are no exhaust fumes to inhale. You can take a ride in a tow scow, a barge that transports people along the canal. It’s hooked up to a horse on the bank of the canal. There are some special celebrations coming up at the Village. This weekend, on July 19 and 20, it’s Carriage Riding Weekend. You’ll learn the difference between a brougham and a barouche and about the vis-à-vis (passengers face each other) and democrat, which has nothing to do with the political party. How about checking out a phaeton, one of the horse drawn sports vehicles of its day. Continued on page 13

Protesters visit an inn the inn at Upper Canada Village Inn. They express their 1860s attitudes, encouraging patrons and the owner to abstain from alcohol. The unique park with 40 buildings from Canada’s Confederation Era is a family-friendly destination, suitable for all ages.

Upper Canada Village is real, not virtual Continued from page 12

On August 16 and 17, enjoy the flavors of Ontario at Food Lovers Field Days. Visitors will be able to shop, dine and sample all sorts of treats at an outdoor farmers’ market. The special celebrations will take place in the fairground at the centre of Upper Canada Village. On the same weekend, Upper Canada Village characters will showcase the original 100-mile diet. The Village will offer heritage garden tours and cooking demonstrations and tastings. You’ll find these offered in the kitchens of the three historic 19th century homesteads. You can watch flour being ground in the mill, bread baking in the bakery and cheddar cheese made at the cheese factory. These food items will be available for sale in the farmers’ market. The focus at this year’s Food Lovers Field Days will be on cast iron cookware. You’ll see period kettles, woodstoves and other utensils crafted from iron used throughout the village. You can even watch a skillet throwing competition. Those who have equine-loving

genes won’t want to miss Horse Lovers’ Weekend on August 30, 31 and September 1. Special guest Farrah Green, horse whisperer, trained in Parelli Natural Horsemanship, will be on hand all three days. She’ll help riders and other horse enthusiasts learn to communicate with and become closer to their horses. There will be horse performances and demonstrations every day, hosted by Drogheda Manor Horesmanship. You can also have a free horseback ride. You’ll see light driving horses as well as massive heavy horses, including a six-horse hitch. Throughout the weekend, staff will highlight the many ways horses were used in the 19th century. The Village is home to Canadian horses, a breed recognized in 2002 by the Federal Government as the National Horse of Canada. The Canadian horse first arrived in New France in 1665 from the stables of King Louis XIV. The hardy horse handled harsh Canadian winters well. The horse developed such a strong reputation for its hardiness that many were shipped south for use as cavalry

horses during the American Civil War. They never returned and by the end of the 19th century there were few true Canadian horses left. By 1978, when Canadian horses were first acquired by Upper Canada Village, the breed had been given endangered status. At noon each day there will be a parade of horses in front of Cook’s Tavern. At 12:30, watch and participate in a mock horse auction. If you’re lucky, you may even witness hot political action if an 1860’s-style demonstration from the defenders of temperance decide to protest in front of Cook’s Tavern. Will abstinence from liquor (and who knows what else) prevail? You’ll have to visit the Village to find out. On September 20 and 21, the Village hosts the 1860s Fall Fair. Everything in the fair must meet 1860s standards. The main purpose of the earliest fall agricultural fairs was the improvement of livestock and crops. At 19th century fairs, judges could, at their own discretion, award prizes for items for which there were no categories on the published prize list. For example, if someone grew a

new vegetable in the region, he might take it to the fair to publicize the achievement. If the judges felt that the vegetable was of a high quality, they would award a discretionary prize. By the 1860s fairs included entertainment, games and displays of handiwork, crafts and cooking. There will also be musical, magical and other entertainers on hand. Family members can try their hand at games like ring toss, three-legged races, sack races and wheel barrow races. Upper Canada Village is home to many heritage breeds, those animals that are true to the 1860 breed standards. In addition to the Canadian horse, you’ll also have an opportunity to see the village’s other heritage livestock like the Berkshire pig—a favorite of children, Leicester sheep and several breeds of heritage cattle. When you visit, make a day of it. You can bring your own lunch and eat at the large picnic area outside the main entrance to Upper Canada Village. But, the Village is a setting where I’d highly recommend having lunch on site at Willard’s Hotel. The hotel was built not far from its current

location, circa 1795, and purchased by John Willard in 1830. The food is excellent and you’ll get to eat in mid-19th century style from a menu that would have been typical for the 1860s. The only way to really experience this building is to have a meal there. There are other on-site eating options like The Village Cafe and the Harvest Barn Restaurant, which features a modern selection of deli and sandwich bar items as well as food from the grill. It’s licensed for beer and wine. You can check the menus for all three settings at the Upper Canada Village website. Directions: Follow highway 401 east out of Kingston. It’s 137 km from the Highway 15 exit to the Upper Canada Road exit. From there it’s about 4 km to Upper Canada Village. Simply follow the Upper Canada Village signs along Upper Canada Road and then east along Highway 2. For more information, go to w w w. u p p e r c a n a d a v i l l a g e . c o m .

Cows in limbo: prison farm herd and caregivers patiently await homecoming By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

Gazette News - After seeing Lenny Epstein’s film Til the Cows Come Home, which tells of the strong local movement to fight the closure of Canada’s prison farms, I was interested to learn more about the Pen Farm Herd Co-op that has been established in the Kingston/Frontenac area in hopes of eventually restoring the dairy herd at the Frontenac Institution. To do so, I headed out to Inverary to chat with farmer and co-op chairperson Jeff Peters; his is one of nine area farms looking after about 32 cows (the number changes frequently due to births and deaths). A total of 23 cows were purchased by the co-op when the pen herd was sold in 2010 and the numbers keep growing; it is supported by concerned citizens from all over the region who have invested in the cows until the farm is restored. “I remember this herd from when I was young,” recalls Peters, explaining that he grew up on the same farm he now operates. “The pen farm herd was a prize herd that we often got to see because they brought them to the fair. There was a special meaning to this herd. It’s been bred for 50-100 years – that’s a long, long time of keeping these animals in the same spot. They didn’t bring

[new] animals in, they just tried to improve their own herd by selective breeding.” The inmates would show their steers alongside all of the other farmers. “You’d come to the fair and they’d have a sign – ‘Pen Farm Holsteins.’ They’d be right in the barns next to us. We were always nervous - we’d say ‘there’s a real convict don’t go too close,’” Peters laughs. “So there is a special attachment to this herd.” The herd’s storied past in Kingston was a big source motivation for starting the coop; the other major factor was a promise from both opposition parties, the Liberals and the NDP, to restore the farm at the Frontenac Institution when elected. Peters admits that it was a huge blow when the Conservatives won a majority government in 2011, as it meant the co-op would need to be maintained for at least five more years. “We thought this was a short term thing. We thought Harper would lose or at least not get a majority in the next government and they could work out a compromise somehow. Boy, we were devastated.” But the enthusiasm the community has for the co-op keeps him going. “People don’t want us to quit,” Peters says. “They seem so appreciative of it and you’d disappoint them if you quit.” He notes that many of the shareholders live in Kingston, and that it’s exciting to see

urban and rural people coming together to support this cause. “Most of the time rural people do rural things, city people do city things. We need more opportunity for both groups of people to get together, to understand each other, because we really believe that farm issues and food issues are issues for everybody to be concerned about.” Indeed, a major factor in terms of making sure the farm is restored will be cooperation from the City of Kingston. “There are a lot of pieces to this puzzle,” Peters says. “It’s not an easy one to put together. You have to keep the land available, so we have to keep going back to the City now and saying ‘we don’t want you building houses on this.’ We want that to be a big issue in the [municipal election] coming up this fall.” He explains that the Save Our Prison Farms group has been working to create a plan for what the new farm will look like, including possibly building renewable energy and cheese making programs. “We’re going to try and figure out what the farm would look like, what it would cost to start it up and give that information to the people that we hope will take power. We’ve been to Ottawa so many times and they know us now. The leaders know us. They know how committed we are to keeping this

goal alive.” Peters also has a vision for how things will go the day the cows return to the farm: “We’re going to put them all in trucks. We’re going to take them to the front lawn at Collins Bay where it’s nice and green and people can see them and we’re going to let them all go. They’re going to eat on the grass out there for an hour while everyone hoots and hollers. Then we’re going to walk

them all to the barns,” he says, joking that “we might get arrested for trespassing.” Peters adds that “a lot of people think we’re absolutely crazy. They say ‘give up, give it a break.’ But when you know you’re fighting for the right things it makes it easier. It’s still possible.” For more information about the co-op, call Jeff Peters at 613-353-2403 or Meela Melnik-Proud at 613-376-6378.

Farmers train farmers for a vital food system Reporter

This week our farm hosted a special training day for farmers. It was part of a monthly event organized by the Eastern Ontario CRAFT—the Collaborative Regional Alliance for Farmer Training—which is one of several similar programs in North America. Farmers, interns, and workers from eight different area farms joined us for a day of tours and workshops. Emily (my partner) showed off the gardens and fields along with some of our techniques. Her brother Tim gave a workshop on rotational grazing methods, which we use to sustainably raise cows, sheep, and chickens. I followed up with a session on construction for the small farm. It was a fun opportunity to get together for a potluck. It was also an important example of farmers training other farmers (and aspiring farmers). Farmer training doesn’t happen by itself, and it’s not so easy to get these days. This spring it was announced that two campuses of the Ontario Agricultural College are being closed. Once Kempville campus and the French campus at Alfred (east of Ottawa) are shuttered, eastern Ontario will be left without an agricultural school. And the problem is about more than just diplomas. Colleges give advice and workshops, do research and answer questions. Without them, some farmers will fall back on advice from agrichemical companies. That is, from the very people who are trying to sell them equipment, or pesticides and fertilizers, or genetically modified seeds. This is rather like going to your doctor with an ailment, only to find that they have been replaced by

a pharmaceutical sales rep; now the person who writes your prescription is the person who profits off the drugs. Far from an ideal situation, to say the least. Furthermore, in Canada the average age of farmers— now over 55—continues to rise as the number of farmers diminishes. A dwindling number of (mostly aging) farmers means that crucial skills are at risk of being lost. And there are a lot of skills involved in farming. It’s hard to overstate the diversity of knowledge required to be a good farmer. When I was much younger there was a commercial on TV in which I recall a narrator asking: “In what career do you have to be biologist? A chemist? A mechanic?” Each discipline was shown in series on the screen in simple white on black. The answer, of course, was the career of farmer. A typical day around here might involve feeding animals and milking cows in the morning, welding a broken hinge and designing a building in the afternoon, and then weeding the garden and helping to deliver a calf before sunset. And then accounting, reading, research, or correspondence before bed. Those are all traditional examples; a farmer today, selling directly to eaters, can add another list of skills. Shooting and editing a video to put online, or keeping in touch with eaters on social media, or tweaking the HTML on their website. The great variety of work and skills involved can make farming an engaging, stimulating, and creative career. There are constant challenges and opportunities for learning. I’ve spent much of the last ten years farming, and I still feel like a novice at some parts of it. My partner Emily, who runs the CSA and works far more than fulltime as a farmer, is definitely more skilled. But she too

Wilf and Ada’s Classic Canadian By Kate Kristiansen Reporter

A cooked breakfast is reason enough to enjoy Wilf and Ada’s on Bank Street in Ottawa, but on this particular day, we dropped in to celebrate hubby officially becoming a Canadian! It’s an enormous undertaking to become a citizen of Canada, involving months of document preparation, declarations of sponsorship by loved ones, committing first as a resident and the painful entry test. It involved a huge book full of facts about Canada that would have many life-long Canadians unofficially marched

out of the country were they required to take it. My husband is New Zealand born and bred and English is his first language; I can’t imagine how hard it is for individuals whose second language is English. The test is divided into 20 multiple-choice questions. You must score above 75 per cent to be considered for the next phase. Hubby passed with flying colours, yet the process was not over. You are officially called back weeks later for a ceremony with a swearing of the oath of allegiance as a true Canadian. We drove to Ottawa for the official citizenship ceremony presided by a judge. There were approximately 75 other soon-to-be Canadians all

filing into one room. As a guest, I was in awe of the excitement and anticipation in the faces of the people; each had worked hard to call Canada home, some emigrating from countries less free and fortunate. My heart swelled with pride. They all wanted to live here, in my country. I lived abroad for 15 years and more often than not I yearn for other shores, but this day was a welcome reminder of how blessed we are to live in a country where people celebrate one another’s differences. the ceremony, I saw the faces of the children with their parents, dressed in their best clothes, some as young as two, not realizing the significance of this moment to their future. I thought of how difficult it was for their parents to leave behind family and friends and move to a new country in an effort to

give them a better life. The judge reminded them of those freedoms, their rights and their commitment to their new country. Together, we recited the oath of allegiance to Canada. The new Canadians carried their flags and certificates of honour, waving them high and with a welcoming grip. Some shed a tears of joy. This significant occasion called for celebration. What better way than to visit Ada’s, an Ottawa institution on Bank and Arlington Street? Many have enjoyed breakfast within these walls. Although it has a fresh new look, it’s the same friendly service. Wilf and Ada Laham hung up their aprons in 2013, but the new place, owned by Ion Aimer, re-opened as Wilf and Ada’s earlier this year. After more than 20 years in business, it seemed fitting that it be called Wilf and Ada’s as a nod to the previous longtime owners. Always the best breakfast spot in central Ottawa, we wanted the new Canadian to start things off right. Wilf and Ada’s exposed brick walls and open space is appropriately loud to give off a celebratory atmosphere anytime. It was a Monday morning, yet we discovered the same buzz as a weekend brunch, without the line up. Our waitress happened to be an Australian who was happy to greet a kiwi from down under and serve breakfast on his first day as a proud Canadian. The menu at Wilf and Ada’s offers local ingredients. As the cozy name suggests, everything is made from scratch, whether it’s peanut butter or hot sauce. The chalkboard menu features hungry man breakfast, eggs in purgatory, homemade French toast, portabello mushroom melt with roast garlic, camembert, herb piston and crispy onion, frittata with grilled sourdough and home fries, chicken sandwiches—all with the music piped in this small space. My favorite was the grilled Caesar salad - a whole head of lettuce with dressing, and organic bacon. It’s open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m., and from 8 a.m. on Saturdays. This was our second visit, and, once again, we were not disappointed. Although, how could you be when a sparkling mimosa is served alongside your eggs?

Jazz, that uniquely American musical genre, has grown far beyond the US border. Today, you’ll find major jazz centres in such diverse locales as Scandinavia, Europe and Japan. Italians helped bring jazz sounds into the mainstream. Italian women are numerous: Simona de Rosa, Grazia DiGiorgio, Roberta Gambarini, Simona Premazzi, Ada Rovatti, Patrizia Scascitelli and Daniela Schächter. Italian jazz is like a perfect Manhattan, made with bourbon:

smooth, but so intense. From the early days of jazz, women have played an important role. Dating back to ragtime at the dawn of the 20th century, women jazz musicians have been present. Mixed with names like Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington are artists like singer Ella Fitzgerald, pianist Lil Hardin Armstrong (married to Louis Armstrong), and, perhaps the most iconic performer, Billie Holiday. Women in the jazz scene, especially pre-1950s, were expected to have more than just instrumental skills. Their chances improved if they provided multiple services like singing and dancing for the price of one.

Chantal explains that part of her struggle as a musician and woman is having her voice accepted as an instrument. “Often, when people ask me what I do, I say I’m a musician.

Then there was Valaida Snow. In addition to her reputation as Queen of the Trumpet, she played cello, guitar, banjo, harp, accordion, bass, violin, guitar, clarinet and saxophone. That’s a lot of skills for the price of one musician. But to break into the scene, she was also expected to dance and sing. By the 1920s, she’d hit the international scene and toured Asia and Europe. On one of her tours, she received a gold plated trumpet from the queen of Netherlands. After successful headline performances at the legendary Apollo Theatre in Harlem, she traveled to Europe to tour as bandleader. Sadly, when Denmark fell to Nazis, Valaida Snow was captured and became a prisoner of war. In addition to being female and black, as well as a “degenerate” musician, she maintained “friendships” with German women musicians, the implication: lesbian. She spent almost two years in a German internment camp. When released in a prisoner exchange, she weighed only 65 pounds. She eventually returned to the stage in New York, but the joie de vivre was gone. Her brutal treatment under the Nazis deeply wounded her soul. On May 30, 1956, she suffered a cerebral hemorrhage while performing at the Palace Theatre in New York. She died a few days later. This is a musician who deserves to be more than a footnote in jazz history. On the local scene, we have some great female talent. Chantal Thompson tops the list. Her recently released album, Sirens and Stars, is a masterful blend of vintage, sexy and cool. Chantal, who grew up in Kingston and attended Queen’s University, now calls Gananoque home, after spending several years with jazz masters in New York City, where she recorded Sirens and Stars.

Frontenac Gazette - Thursday, July 17, 2014

Feminine hip: a statement of strength Continued from page 18

you don’t have any knowledge or training as a musician. As a band leader I’m selecting the material, the arrangements, the players and very much shaping the whole sound. I reinterpret the standards from my set list and write my own pieces, I trade bars with the other players and harmonize with them creating chords and treat my voice not just as a centrepiece but as one of the instruments.” Chantal says that what draws her to jazz is the spontaneity. “Jazz is less about sex appeal and more about, ‘what are you going to say in this moment?’”, she says. “How are you going to blow our minds with the myriad of possible patterning and years spent in exploration? And exactly what is the meaning of words that can make the music even more evocative? Another reason I was drawn to jazz was that it seemed to be the music of choice of artists in general when I think of the beats, the poets, the cubist painters.” This weekend (July 20), Chantal will perform at a Jazz Fest in North Carolina. The festival honours her friend, Joshua

Wolff, who died suddenly of cancer. Wolff, a great pianist, performed on Sirens and Stars, but died before he heard the CD. “I imagine it will be incredibly cathartic for me to be part of this festival at a wonderful venue that houses the NC Philharmonic.” She’ll also be performing a duet with NY jazz vocalist Jay Clayton. When she lived in NY, Chantal attended Clayton’s scatlabs. Chantal’s jazz goal: “I will be searching for the opportunities that will allow me to be who I am in a respectful environment with no unnecessary apologies.” Another modern musician to keep your ears open to is Italian-born saxophonist Ada Rovatti. When she steps on stage with her sax, she’s all out there, abandoned. I first saw her perform at New York’s Blue Note in a mid-March gig. With toenails painted green, she played what she termed Celtic jazz. Seriously. The evening opened with the Irish uilleann pipes morphing into jazz fusion. Just when you think you’ve heard everything, along comes the brilliant Ada Rovatti. Her Green Factor album features a pleasantly strange combination of Irish,

Celtic, jazz and fusion influences. Drive magazine has heaped praise on Ada, calling her a “graceful Italian jazzista.” She began playing jazz in high school, where she was the only female in a jazz program. “I always felt out of place, especially by the fact that I grew up in Italy where still today it’s quite a misogynistic environment,” she says. “When I came to the USA, I finally found other women jazz instrumentalists and I was very inspired by their high level of musicianship....Women need to work harder than men in order to be accepted—by both genders! There are still too many misconceptions about what a woman should and could do.” Despite the trailblazing by many jazz greats over the past century, female jazz musicians continue to battle stereotypes. “I heard too many times that ‘clearly saxophone is too heavy for a woman,’” says Ada

Rovatti. “I’ve also heard that saxophone is too masculine of an instrument for a woman. There is still the novelty aspect, so the spots are limited, since festivals would only hire a woman or two as band leaders in relation to maybe 20 and more male leader-acts.” She says that record labels are likewise hesitant, saying, “’We already have a female jazz musician on our roster,’ like we are some kind of circus weirdo act.” Her attitude helps her survive and thrive. “It’s still a tough world out there, and as with every woman, I deal daily with ignorance, bad attitudes and stereotypes. The only thing I can do is keep working hard and try my best in doing what I love

to do and bring my ‘femininity’ to the band stand, not as an adjective wrongly associated with weakness or inferiority, but as a statement of strength, determination, fierceness and passion towards life and music.” It’s safe to say that Ada Rovatti brings that strength and creative fierceness to every performance. Women have been trailblazing in the jazz scene for more than a century, despite history repeatedly placing them on the back burner. Next week, a look at jazz star Madeleine Peyroux (coming to the Grand Theatre on December 11) and rising star Simona de Rosa.

The Producers makes its Kingston debut mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Gazette News – The plot is simple - a down on his luck Broadway producer and his side-kick accountant come up with a scheme to make more money producing a Broadway flop. They set off on an adventure to find the worst play ever written in hopes of closing after opening night and running off with the money. This is The Producers and this summer Kingstonians will have the opportunity to see it come to life on stage at the Grand Theatre. “It is the first time the show has been done

in Kingston,” said director Devon Dafoe. “It is a really fun show that doesn’t take itself too seriously and it’s written by Mel Brooks, what’s not to love?” The show is being presented by Blue Canoe and opens on July 23. This is the fourth production that Dafoe has directed for Blue Canoe and while he was excited to take YEARS on one of his favorite musicals, the task has been a bit challenging. “I’ve never directed a musical before,” admitted Dafoe. “Taking all three elements – the acting, the dancing and the singing and putting them together is aYEARS lot of work and it is a huge cast. One of the productions I

directed before had three people in it and this I are friends and now we have to do these show has a cast of 26.

weeks now and Dafoe has been enjoying every minute of it, especially seeing the way that the cast has embraced the play. “My favorite part of directing is seeing what this amazingly talented group of people can do with the script,” added Dafoe. “I could have read it a million times and not come up with some of the stuff that they do. They thrive off of each other and they bring a great energy to the production and that inspires me too. I really hope people come out and see it.” The Producers opens on July 23 at 7:30 p.m. and runs until July 26.

Latest McCarthy film not quite as advertised Mark Haskins

My Take

MOVIE: Tammy STARRING: Melissa McCarthy, Susan Sarandon, Kathy Bates, Gary Cole and Mark Duplass DIRECTOR: Ben Falcone RATING: 14A

More than 1000 people attended the festivities at Coffee Trends west end location in Blackburn Mews. There was a full barbecue and bouncy castle, in addition to cakes, loot bags, for both children and adults, face painters and balloon twisting. Owner Spring Tompkins said the event was to celebrate the first year of business and to thank the community for making its success a reality. “I am humbled and overwhelmed from the support we received from Kingstonians when we opened the store a year ago. It has been successful and we could not have dreamt that everybody would be so responsive and so kind and that they would support us in the way they have,” she explained. Privately owned and operated, Coffee Trends is Kingston’s first single serve store. It specializes in Keurig K-Cups and Tassimo single serve beverages. The store has grown to carry over 400 varieties of coffees and teas, hot chocolates, cappuccinos, ice drinks and apple ciders. “The whole idea behind the concept of the store is selection and at one time, you couldn’t get single serve coffee beverages in Kingston very easily. You certainly could not buy them in a mix and match variety. You could only buy them in a box of 24 or a box of 18 and you were kind of stuck if you got home and didn’t like the flavour,” said Tompkins. “Coffee Trends customers can mix and match single serve beverages and that way if you don’t like the flavour of a beverage, it is not much of an investment,” she added, noting that customers can purchase 24 single serve beverages for only $13.95. In addition to expanding beverage varieties, Coffee Trends also opened a second store in Kingston’s east end. The store, which is located on Gore Road, features the same line up of products and pricing as the west-end store. However, it has the addition of a Coffee Trends Café a place where customers can sit and munch on baked goods from Fardella’s Classic Bakery. “It’s not just a retail store anymore, but more a destination for our customers to sit and chat 28

over coffee,” Tompkins explained. She noted that regardless of what location customers go to, they are bound to have a pleasant shopping experience, thanks to Coffee Trends’ dedicated and customer service oriented staff. Throughout the past year, Coffee Trends has also given back to the community at large through several initiatives. The store is the official K-Cup supplier and sponsor for the Kingston Frontenac’s hockey team. It also supports a local soccer team and fundraises for several causes including Gildas Club, Spay Neuter Kingston Initiative and the Council on Aging. “Community involvement is important to us. We love to support Kingston as much as we can,” said Tompkins, who is an active member of the local Chamber of Commerce. She also noted the importance of staying connected with the community and meeting other local business owners. “Another initiative that we have is a partnership with a Canadian organization called The SEED Fund. The SEED Fund is involved in various initiatives that help local Haitians support their children’s schooling or start their own business or even build their own home. They take our recyclable boxboard to Haiti where Haitian artisans make jewelry pieces out of the coffee boxes. We then sell the jewelry at Coffee Trends and 100% of the sales go back to The SEED Fund,” noted Tompkins. When Coffee Trends opened the store a year ago, it partnered with JustGreen Business Advantage, to lower its carbon footprint and take responsibility for its greenhouse gas emissions. Through the purchase of carbon offsets, Coffee Trends hopes to neutralize carbon emissions related to its day to day operations. “We can all strive to do our part for the environment and carbon offsets help us reach our sustainable goals. We hope to encourage our customers to think about their own carbon footprint.” said Tompkins. To learn more about Coffee Trends or for a full product list visit: www.coffeetrends.ca

the heartfelt moments too. The cast is good. In fact they’re far better than I expected. Kathy Bates, Allison Janney, Gary Cole, Ben Falcone, Sandra Oh, and Dan Aykroyd are as good as it gets. Mark Duplass as the quiet and unassuming love interest is the perfect counterbalance to McCarthy’s chaos. Then there is Susan Sarandon who mercilessly steals the show as Pearl. Though the film isn’t called Tammy for no reason. Tammy begins as you might expect. She’s loud, obnoxious, not very smart and over the top in all that she does. She’s a cartoon character of a real person, and yet as the story moves forward you see she isn’t. She’s flawed to be sure, but she’s not her flaws. Tammy may have some lessons to learn, but she is very much a real person, and McCarthy is outstanding in the role. I knew she could be funny, but I didn’t know she could act. In the end Tammy may not be the film that was advertised, but I think that’s why I liked it. It was different, it was ambitious, and once I wrapped my head around what they were really doing, I enjoyed it.

Arts – Tammy is one of those movies where the marketing department didn’t even bother to see the film. They just saw Melissa McCarthy’s name and started pushing it as the outrageous comedy of the summer. It is not. It is in fact something quite different, and I kind of like different. Things don’t start well for Tammy (Melissa McCarthy). On her way to her crappy fast food job she hits a deer. The deer is fine, but her car is wrecked. Bruised and battered she gets to work late, but is fired by her jerk boss. She ends up having

to walk home only to find her husband having an affair with her neighbour. Tammy storms off to her parents place two doors down, and announces she needs a car because she’s leaving. Her mom (Allison Janney), who has heard this before, says no. Her alcoholic grandmother, Pearl (Susan Sarandon), on the other hand gives Tammy the keys and a wad of cash on the condition Tammy takes her with her. Thus the road trip begins. Outrageous things do happen. There are even some funny things that happen. Then there are the things that start out as being funny, but end up being not even remotely funny. This film runs the gambit from amusing to shocking, and from sad to pathetic as Tammy and her grandmother go on their journey of bonding and self discovery. Tammy attempts to walk the line between comedy and tragedy. It navigates between the absurd and the painfully real. It may not be the gut busting comedy you expect, but it does have its funny moments. Just be prepared for the awkward moments, the sad moments and

Frontenac Gazette - Thursday, July 17, 2014

Windsor-built 1934 Plymouth with one owner 53 years! Lifestyle – Bill Ball of Amherstburg, Ontario, purchased a 1934 Plymouth Model PE coupe in 1961, probably never imagining that he would still own the same car more than half a century later! The car was built at the Chrysler plant in Windsor, where Bill’s dad, Harold, had worked in 1934. Coupes with a built-in trunk were $790 and those with a rumble seat had a factory retail price of $845. Three young men from the Leamington area had purchased the car in London in the late ‘50s while attending teachers’ college. They bought it from a man who had found it under a pile of scrap in a junkyard. He got it running and put it back on the road, then later sold it to the three young men. One of them later bought out the other two, then sold the car when he got married. Bill bought the car in running condition in 1961 from Norm’s Bicycle Shop in Walkerville. He stored the car at two or three locations over the years, hoping to restore it some day. Around 2000, the car came out of storage and the restoration began. Bill already had

two NOS (new old stock) running boards he found at a big swap meet in Hershey, Pennsylvania. He also had two NOS rear fenders, also from Hershey. Fortunately, the body itself was very solid and is now painted in Light Gunmetal Metallic. The engine is the original one for this car and was rebuilt by a man at Siefker Automotive in Essex. It has 201 cubic inches and cranks out a very respectable 77 horsepower. Bill installed a new interior kit and also replaced the fabric insert roof. The chrome was redone in London. Bill’s Plymouth has several interesting features. A no-draft window has six different positions up and down, and only offered in 1934. The suicide doors (hinged at the rear) were typical of cars of that era. The hood sides have a combination of louvers and doors for proper engine ventilation. The windshield cranks out from the bottom for an early form of air conditioning. The car was put back on the road about ten years ago, and is driven locally with its “stump-puller” 4:11 rear end. It is always on display at Amherstburg’s Gone Car Crazy Show ‘n’ Shine for all vehicles, taking place this year on Saturday July 27. For more info, call Eleanor at 519-736-4020 or www.amherstburgsgonecarcrazyshow.
