Campground proposal not well received by council, neighbours By Craig Bakay

Reta Azulay, owner and operator of Northway Home Hardware, stands next to the sign she posted on September 30 indicating the currently closed LCBO location will reopen shortly. The LCBO outlet closed in March of this year when the then-owner retired, and Azulay has worked diligently since to have the outlet reopened – something she is aiming to make happen for November 1. See page 4 for more details. Tori Stafford/Metroland

News — A rezoning proposal that would add 170 campsites to a piece of land just north of Skycroft Campground on Opinicon Lake was received for information only at last week’s regular South Frontenac Council meeting in Sydenham, but not before neighbours expressed their opposition to the project in an open meeting that lasted more than an hour. “The subject property abuts a waterfront lot which accommodates an existing fully developed waterfront resort (Skycroft Campground) which is also owned by the applicant,” said Planner Lindsay Mills. “The applicant advises that this is a grandfathered use on the land that has accommodated overflow from Skycroft. “The proposal would be for 170 sites for seasonal camping and trailers, among these would be a number of ‘cave units.’” Mills said that while the Official Plan is very specific about the minimum size of campsites on lakefront developments, it is far less specific about non-waterfront resorts. But therein lies the rub. The proposed development would be owned by the same people as the waterfront development and just about all of the councilors expressed concern that this was a way around the waterfront restrictions. “To me, it defies credibility that this won’t be used as one lot,” said Dep. Mayor Ross Sutherland. “I think we need a legal opinion because the danger for the Township is that anybody could buy back lots (and use them for

campgrounds near the water). “Also, the owner will have to know whether we think he can proceed before he pays for expensive studies.” Mills said there would have to be an engineer’s report that would deal with sewage treatment that would have to be approved by the Ministry (KFL&A Public Health is usually the approval body for such reports but this would require more than 10,000 litres per day of water usage) and probably a traffic study as well. “I think it would be naive to believe it will be used as two distinct lots,” said Coun. Mark Schjerning. “The new lot has boat trailer parking.” “It’s like back lot development on waterfront,” said Coun. John McDougall. “The issue with backlots is trespassing to access the water,” said Mills. “I’m not saying something can’t happen with this property,” said Mayor Ron Vandewal. “Just that 170 is a crazy number. “What’s going to happen when you start planning music events there? “I know there’s no appetite for this kind of development.” Neighbours seemed to agree. Most of the comments in the open meeting were like Marc Faguy who said: “This is a major expansion and we are greatly concerned. “Single people don’t go to campgrounds, families do so 170 additional campsites will mean an additional 480 or so people at any one given time.”

Inverary LCBO to reopen thanks to community member’s diligence Outlet closed suddenly back in March after previous owner retired BY TORI STAFFORD tstafford@metroland.com

News – After a lot of hard work, determination and patience, Reta Azulay is beyond excited to announce she’s received approval to reopen the LCBO outlet in the heart of Inverary. “I’m really excited about it,” said Azulay, who has owned and operated Northway Home Hardware with her husband, Roger, since 1988. “What I am most excited about, though, is being able to give the community what it wants, and what all the people have been asking for.” The LCBO outlet on Perth Road that had served the area was closed in March of this year when the previous owner retired. The closure was sudden for many of the area residents, and even more sudden for the tourists and cottagers that frequent the area in the summer season, Azulay explained, and all of those people weren’t shy in voicing their disapproval. “The response from people that would stop in here was just ‘Where did it go?’ and ‘What happened?’” Azulay said.

a On for Limited Time

“We spent all summer explaining to people what had happened and where they’d have to go now… It was a long summer!” Azulay laughed about just how many people came into Northway Home Hardware to ask questions, but she pointed out why so many people were displeased with the lack of liquor store in the area. “This area is definitely different than Kingston, and people want to come out of Kingston, and they don’t want to go back to Kingston,” she said, adding that, with people leading such busy lives, having to go into Kingston to pick up a bottle of wine for a dinner party or a case of beer for a golf tournament was a real hassle for those in the area. “People just want to come home, do their thing, make their stops along the way here. Suddenly, they couldn’t get everything they wanted as they once had been able to.” When the LCBO outlet, which stood directly beside Northway Home Hardware, closed, Azulay immediately expressed a desire to take it over and keep it running. However, when she approached the LCBO about doing so, she found it wouldn’t

be that simple. A new LCBO location had opened on Division Street right near Highway 401 while the Inverary location was in service, and the company decided it needed to review whether or not it was even worthwhile to have an outlet in Inverary after all.

“People just want to come home, do their thing, make their stops along the way here. Suddenly, they couldn’t get everything they wanted as they once had been able to.” Reta Azulay Thus began the lengthy process Azulay decided to spearhead, knowing the community truly wanted the outlet to reopen. She started a peti-

tion at the checkout of her Home Hardware, which eventually garnered approximately 2,500 signatures. And she had to undergo the finicky application process to open an LCBO outlet, all while continuing to run her store. At the same time, the Azulays decided to lease the adjoining property, knowing they could use the additional space to display their stock and expand their busy store. The couple elected to move all of their hunting and fishing stock to the new space, which they renovated, leaving all of the original shelves from the old LCBO in place “in the hope that we would be approved,” Azulay said. Then, on Friday, Sept. 30, she received the letter she and the entire community had been waiting for. “I got the approval letter from the LCBO, and I couldn’t have been happier,” she said. “I knew I wanted to do something to let the community know, but we’re not allowed to put any LCBO signage up until the store actually opens. So I came up with a little riddle to spread the word.” The sign plays on words and ref-

erences both the dry summer and the lack of liquor sales in the area: ‘Long dryspell has come to an end! Stay tuned.’ But with so many people coming in to ask about it, Azulay said she finally went back out to the sign and added the words ‘Yes really!’ because she found herself saying those exact words over and over. “The community is very excited, and they drop in just to say ‘Way to go!’ and ‘Good work!’” she said. “Now I am looking to add some giftware, greeting cards and some gift bags to the store, so it can appeal to a wide range of people.” So when will the outlet finally be open again? “That’s what everyone wants to know,” Azulay said with a laugh. “I’m gearing for November 1.” She didn’t put in all of those months lobbying the LCBO and pleading the case for Inverary to rest on her laurels now, Azulay explained, and the reason for that is simple. “I like to help people and I like to help the community,” she said. “I was born and raised here, so Inverary is in my heart.”

Communications system in Frontenac County obsolete, new options expensive says report By Craig Bakay

Communications systems in Frontenac County are “in serious difficulty but they make it work,” Nelson Rogers told a joint meeting of all township and county councils at Oso Hall in Sharbot Lake last week. Rogers, along with Robert Leitch and David du Feu, all with Sonoptic Media & Communications Corp, were presenting their findings in the Frontenac In-Field Communications Gap Study and Option Analysis, which looked at the status of communications systems for fire, paramedic, public works and related operations in Frontenac County. “What we found was that some equipment is to the point of being obsolete,” said du Feu. “(And) when Kingston Dispatch is busy with others, sometimes the services have to wait.” Nelson said that the only way the various services get by with the current technology is a “can-do attitude” and the propensity of rural residents for making what they have work. The Sonoptic team conducted more than 40 interviews with fire, public works and administration in the member municipalities as well as interviews and surveys with OPP, paramedics and mutual aid partners along with the Eastern Ontario Regional Network (EORN) on communications initiatives to produce

its findings. Among the problems and issues end users experience were: • gaps in coverage, dead zones • poor signal strength • unreliable communications equipment • congestion at Kingston Dispatch • interoperability between allied agencies • backup or redundant communications systems • protocols, policies and training They said many first responders improvised to compensate for

inadequate equipment or signal loss by using personal cell phones, going to higher ground to get a connection, sending someone to relay a message and/or carrying fire service radios in ambulances. They presented three options for a new system: • a simulcast (simultaneous broadcast) system like Lanark County’s which would cost $1 million to $2 million and take two to three years to implement • a Project 25 (P25) system like Vancouver Island’s which would cost $6 million to $8 million and take about five years • a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system which would likely cost more than a P25 system and not available until 2018 or 2019 However, they recommended establishing a county-wide communications committee, the

appointment of a first responder liaison for communications issues and the implementation of a countywide incident reporting protocol/ procedure before actually getting down to discussing systems. They said such a committee would need to prepare a long-term financial plan, research potential sources of funding and actively promote Frontenac County as a pilot for EORN’s future plans. South Frontenac Mayor Ron Vandewal essentially summed up the situation after the presentation. “Our system is obsolete,” Vandewal said. “But we can’t pay the millions so unless EORN is in, we can’t be.” EORN is expected to make a presentation at the Oct. 19 Frontenac County Council meeting Oct. 19 in Sharbot Lake.

TOWNSHIP OF SOUTH FRONTENAC WESTPORT ROAD CLOSURE Westport Road at the West end of Wolfe Lake will be closed to through traffic from October 28-30, inclusive, for a culvert replacement. A detour will be in effect along Canoe Lake and Devil Lake Roads. Your cooperation and patience are appreciated.

CIP proposal for Harrowsmith generally well received By Craig Bakay

News — As the public meeting portion of last week’s South Frontenac regular Council meeting began, Mayor Ron Vandewal joked “I was hoping half the room was here for the CIP.” It wasn’t. But there were some members there interested in the Community Improvement Plan for Harrowsmith. One member asked what the program was based on and Clerk/CAO Wayne Orr responded that it was based on the similar program in Verona. Harrowsmith will be the fifth community chosen for the County-funded After a season-opening loss to Regi, the Sydenham Golden Eagles were pretty intense in program, the others being Verona, Sharbot practice last week. Slotback Daniel Van Heyst makes a smooth catch in scrimmage, but is Lake, Marysville and Plevna, later expanded to include all of North Frontenac Township. immediately swarmed by defenders. Another audience member asked about Craig Bakay/Metroland restoring a century-old home, for which renovations had already begun. “It can’t be retroactive,” Orr said. “The money is there only for projects begun after Oct. 18 and agreements are signed.” “So if you’re planning more work, hold off,” inc. joked Mayor Ron Vandewal. A CIP is a community planning tool found in the Planning Act. In a report, Frontenac County Planner Reid Shepherd outlined a summary of areas in the community the CIP could seek to improve: • the main street area is occupied by some Tune Ups • Suspension residential buildings that are unappealing as a Aftermarket Accessories result of their unkempt appearance and lack of

general maintenance. The appearance of these buildings should be improved to enhance the appearance of the main street area as a gateway to the community • the commercial character of the main street area should be expanded and promoted • improvements to the streetscape should address aesthetics and safety concerns. Improvements could include the provision of street furnishings, traffic calming measures, streetlights, landscaping, garbage receptacles and signage • beautification of the hamlet should present a consistent theme which would highlight the community and contribute to the development of a unique character • municipal investment in safe pathways, connections to trails, schools and the park and incorporate benches, bike racks and garbage receptacles • youth oriented facilities should be developed which could include a day care and recreational facilities. Funding under the CIP is available to individuals and businesses in four programs: Facade Improvement; Commercial Building Improvement Grant; Accessibility Enhancement and Residential Conversion Grant in an amount not to exceed $3,000 for residences and $4,000 for businesses. Also, there is a Community Improvement Loan Program to a maximum of $7,500 and for a one-time grant of $2,000 as part of the relief provided for in the Municipal Fees Grant Program.

Lapidary club polishes up for gem and mineral show By Rob Mooy

News - There are treasures right beneath our feet; next time you go for a walk, stop, glance down, what you find might just be the foundation of an incredible piece of jewelry. Anyone who has ever picked up a rounded pebble, a curiously shaped rock or sparkling gem and handled it with wonder, knows the urge to collect - to examine and enjoy later. What is it? How was it made? Is it valuable? Can I create something from it? Kingstonians can unearth these nuggets of information and more at Gem Storm, the 47th annual gem and mineral show, hosted by the Kingston Lapidary and Mineral Club (KLMC), at the Portsmouth Olympic Harbour, Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 15 to 16. Organizers say this year’s show and sale should prove to be one of the best gem and mineral shows ever. In addition to thousands of colourful rocks, minerals and fossils, many club members and exhibitors will be showing and selling unique jewelry pieces. “We will have dealers from all over Ontario and Quebec, many of them KLMC members, selling an excellent selection of crystals, minerals, one-of-akind jewellery pieces, facetted stones, fossils, or unique carvings,” explains Eileen Moss, club vice-president. “Gem Storm is one of my

favourite shows. It is like a huge family gathering that happens once a year. We get to meet and greet dealers and returning and new customers.” According to Moss, the show provides an excellent opportunity to meet KLMC instructors and members who create wonderful jewelry items, or collect and sell mineral specimens. The show also hosts a children’s mine, stocked with lots of great specimens ready for collecting by young rock hounds. It is a perennial favourite and young geologists can experience the thrill of the hunt, digging around in a mine, excited to find their own special rock;

one they will treasure for years to come. “We have over 2,400 adults and children attend Gem Storm every year,” says Moss. “It’s a yearly event that lets them add specimens or crystals to their collection, buy those one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces direct from the artist, or buy those special items that are only available at this show. It’s a chance to touch and feel real treasures from the Earth” These days, the club numbers some 275 adult and family memberships, aging from one year to 85 years.

youngsters to learn about rocks, minerals and crystals in a hands-on approach. Family oriented field trips are held from May through October to collect minerals and crystals from a variety of locales. Whether you’re a geologist or not, the rocks and minerals that come out of the ground are absolutely beautiful, they have fascinating patterns and every one of them is unique – it’s like nature’s works of art. Long time member and the club’s field trip coordinator, Corey Lablans, who has been a member since he was six years old, knows all to well the excitement of the hunt. “My mom actually got me into the club when I was younger. It was amazing being outdoors and being able to dig into the mud, using shovels and sledgehammers, breaking up rock looking for hidden gems,” he said. “It’s fascinating when you are digging into the soil, or breaking into the rock, and you suddenly unearth this crystal - or if you are a fossil collector you suddenly come

across this animal which used to exist. Just think, you are the first person to see this crystal which formed about a billion years ago and it’s amazing.” Lablans has followed his passion and today, some twenty years later, has recently graduated from Queen’s University with a Bachelor of Science Honours in Geological Science. The young geologist loves to come back to his geological roots and share what he’s learned with members of the club, especially leading group excursions. This year he’ll be at the children’s mine. Show organizers say this year’s show will be a very family oriented show and have attempted to represent every aspect of the hobby in the dealer selection featuring many lapidary related items, great minerals, gemstones, beads, carvings, paintings, jewelry, fossils and crystals. Junior member Ailsa Kerr, 9, who has been collecting as long as she’s been able to walk, is looking forward to checking out the show. “I just love rocks,” she

says. “They are so interesting, I learned all about them listening to my dad (who is a geologist). We have always had a whole bunch of rocks in the garage and I loved looking at all the crystals. All the shapes and all the colours are amazing.” The young enthusiast can’t wait to add some new geodes to her collection. “I love breaking them open to see what’s hidden inside.” “Everyone who finds out about and goes to Gem Storm loves Gem Storm,” adds Moss. “To see it, is to fall in love with it. It’s nature at its best. It has something for everyone.” Gem Storm runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 15 and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday Oct. 16. Admission is $3 per person, children under 12 free when accompanied by a paying adult. To learn more about the Kingston Lapidary and Mineral Club visit www. mineralclub.ca.

EDITORIAL

In Our Opinion

Communications problems equal expensive solutions, and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the money Column â&#x20AC;&#x201D; It was an interesting night in Sharbot Lake last week as councilors and staff members from all four townships as well as Frontenac County were in Oso Hall to listen to a report on in-field communications. Couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t swing a dead cat in there without hitting a politician. Anyways, it came as a surprise to nobody that the report concluded our communications system is kind of a mess. It also came as no surprise that any proposed â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;solutionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; would be expensive. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the rub to it all. If it were cheap, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have fixed the problem long before this. Unfortunately, these sorts of report gatherings tend to be like trying to hold back the tide with a broom â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and everybody arguing about who should be holding said broom. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face it, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of territory

to be covered in a municipality the size of Frontenac County and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not like the area is flat and treeless. Across the prairies, people designing communications systems donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry about things like line-ofsight. Where we live, the Canadian Shield pretty much guarantees that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be dealing with a different lineof-sight every 50 feet or so. Remember all the ballyhoo a few years back when we were going to get everybody hooked up to the internet? Well, that worked out for a lot of people but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still about 15 per cent of residents with a service just slightly advanced from dial-up. And not only is any new communications system going to be expensive, chances are itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be obsolete before we even get using it, given the way electronics tend to advance every six months these days. But amidst all the gloom and doom, there may be a little ray of sunshine struggling to get through. There was actually one suggestion at the meeting that has potential â&#x20AC;&#x201D; lobby the Eastern Ontario Regional Network (EORN) to make Frontenac County its pilot project for new communications. We have good arguments. For

example, nobody is in greater need than we are. Nobody has more challenging terrain than we do. And, think of it this way EORN, if you can make a communications network work in Frontenac County, you can probably make one work anywhere. Just think of the potential business that could lead to. Nobody knows what kind of communications equipment will exist in five years or five months for that matter. Could be weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll all be hologramming each other. Then again, it could be weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be back to smoke signals and drums. One thingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for sure though, our twotin-cans-and-a-string system ainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t gonna cut it much longer. If nothing else, sooner or later some lawyer type is going to contend that our (lack of) communications contributed to someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injury and then what do we do? Perhaps we could offer the plaintiff an old school building or two. We have a few of those on the books. At any rate, the idea of being a pilot project for better communications has merit. Of course we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell our neighbouring municipalities because then theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to be a pilot project too.

Cross your heart, not your fingers: Buckle Up As part of the Ministry of Transportationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (MTO) annualÂ SeatbeltÂ Campaign, held from Sept. 28 to Oct. 7 this year, Kingston: Partners for a Safe Community (KPSC) held two checkpoints in Kingston on Thursday, Oct. 6Â to check to see ifÂ Kingston drivers and passengers were wearing theirÂ seatbeltsÂ and were wearing them properly.Â During the two-hour period, a total of 3,530 drivers and passengers were observed, passing through the busy city intersections. Of that group, 96 people (2.7 per cent) were observed to not be wearing theirÂ seatbelts. According to data from the OPP, there have been 347 deaths in the past five years caused by drivers and passengers not doing up their seatbelts. Over the same period, males ages 25-34 accounted for the highest number of seatbelt-related deaths. Women in the same age group accounted for the highest number of deaths among female victims. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every year, our officers tend to crash victims of all ages who are not buckled in at the time of the collision. More often than not, they die as a result of being ejected, partially ejected or from the physical trauma they sustained inside the vehicle,â&#x20AC;? said OPP Deputy Commissioner Brad Blair, Provincial Commander, Traffic Safety and Operational Support at the beginning of the Seatbelt Campaign in September. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fortunately, our officers have also witnessed numerous victims survive their ordeal as a result of being restrained in their seat. Every life is worth the five seconds it takes to buckle up.â&#x20AC;? The penalty for non-seatbelt compliance under the Highway Traffic Act is a fine up to $1,000 and two licence demerit points. The driver is also responsible for the securing of all passengers under the age of 16. There is no excuse not to buckle up. As pointed out it takes five seconds, or less, to fasten a seatbelt and those five seconds can potentially safe your own life or the lives of others. So to those 96 people in Kingston, we know you can do better. Hopefully next year you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be included in these stats.

Living with and adapting to Emerald Ash Borer Jeff Scott THE COUNTRYSIDE VIEW The Emerald Ash Borer is a pretty little bright green beetle native to China where it has lived on ash trees forever without being a problem. It has since hitch hiked to North America on wooden pallets to become a terrible, destructive pest. With no natural enemies, the Emerald Ash Borer quickly spread out from Michigan to threaten all of the continent’s native ash trees. We assisted its rapid spread by transporting it around on firewood and on our vehicles. To put the danger into perspective, about ten percent of our trees are ash. The United States estimates that they have about eight billion ash trees with an economic value of $280 billion. We can see the dead trees throughout Ontario along the 401, which shows just how far this pest has gone. The Emerald Ash Beetle causes its destruction by boring under the bark of the ash tree and laying its eggs. The young beetles munch away on the living tissue, which makes it im-

possible for the tree to transport nutrients from the roots to the leaves and the branches die. The adult beetle emerges from the tree and flies off to breed and cause more destruction. This beetle has definitely been destructive, but there is hope that we can have it adapt to being part of the natural landscape. The biggest problem is that we have spread this beetle around so far and quickly that the natural world has not been able to deal with it. Finally, the battle has been engaged by the United States Forestry Service, which has been doing a lot of research on the beetle ever since it showed up in Michigan fifteen years ago. The researchers have gone to China and they have found three natural predators of the beetle. These are parasitic wasps, which lay their eggs on the beetle with the young emerging and eating their host. They have done extensive research on these wasps and they have determined that they will not affect native beetles and that they will survive our winters. They have now built a mass rearing facility in Michigan to produce huge numbers of these wasps and they have released them at infested sites. We are still waiting to find out how successful they are. There have been some surprising predators emerging in the natural environment here though. There have been several local parasitic

An example of a second ash tree growing from the stump. Submitted

wasps that have taken a liking to the beetle. They are taking their time about it but it seems that the word is spreading that there is new food around, but so far the beetle has spread far beyond them. They will catch up though.

One of the better adaptations is that woodpeckers and nuthatches have also taken a shining to the pretty beetle. In areas with the worst outbreaks they have found a significant increase in the numbers of these birds. These were not migrant birds that flew in for a feast, but local birds who started to feed their young this new found food with a small population explosion of woodpeckers and nuthatches. The birds aren’t eating all of the beetle’s larvae, but they are getting about 15 per cent of them. Finally, there is the ash tree’s natural resilience. These are a “live fast, die young” tree. They grow quickly and they produce huge numbers of seeds that spread far and wide on the wind with many seedlings to fill spaces left by dying trees. As such, Ash trees quickly replace the dead trees with many new saplings. The borer attacks the tree by getting under the trees bark and choking off the upper branches. This does not necessarily kill the tree. There are now many examples where the tree sends out new shoots from its base or from the recently cut stumps. As such, the tree often survives on the existing roots and quickly sends up suckers. The results are not pretty but there is a new tree growing. What we need to do is to help the natural world adapt to the Emerald Ash Borer. We need to introduce parasites, nurture native parasites, and assist the woodpeckers and finally, we need to help along recovering ash trees. If we do all of this we will soon have our ash forests back and a new pretty beetle that many locals will find to be a delicacy.

New e-Learning Hubs to enhance and advance student experience at Loyola BY TORI STAFFORD tstafford@metroland.com

News – Students at Loyola School of Adult and Continuing Education are now being offered even more ways to further their learning, and access to the technology education in today’s world demands. On Wednesday, Oct. 5, students, staff and dignitaries from the City of Kingston and the Algonquin Lakeshore Catholic District School Board (ALCDSB) gathered at the Loyola location here in the city as the school opened their brand new e-Learning Hub. Designed to enhance the students’ experience by providing access to technology

and the internet, the four eLearning Hubs allow adult students to work on online courses while having access to teacher support at the same time. Additionally, these e-Learning Hubs benefit all students at Loyola, as they are open for use on a daily basis. Students learn how to use programs such as Google Docs, Google Drive and Dropbox, as well as providing hands-on learning of necessary basics like emailing, creating attachments, changing file types, and Microsoft Office programs. It’s all about expanding and advancing adult education, explained Loyola Principal Rob Gilmour. “It provides us with more

opportunities,” Gilmour expressed, noting that with family and work responsibilities, flexibility is incredibly valuable for adult learners. “Not everyone has the internet, not everyone has a computer, and even if they have them, they don’t necessarily know how to use everything – many people don’t,” he continued, “So we always have a teacher here that’s in a space dedicated to online students. Those students who have taken the e-learning course, if they have a question about content, how to use a program, or they have an issue with their computer – whatever it might be – they’ve got a space here, they can come in

Mayor Bryan Patterson addresses students at the grand opening of four new e-Learning Hubs at Loyola School of Adult and Continuing education. Mayor Patterson was joined by Jodi DiRocco, Director of Education for the Algonquin Lakeshore Catholic District School Board (ALCDSB), and a number of ALCDSB trustees, who all cut the ribbon officially opening the Hubs. The school board invested in the e-Learning Hubs to further the flexibility and support in the courses offered at Loyola, as well as expand the students’ use of technology in learning.

in my studies,” said Zach Bishop, a 34-year-old student who began his studies at Loyola last January. “Not only can we work on projects and send them to our teachers, but they can see us working on them at the same time and help us with them, through the Google Drive and Loyola’s online programs. It’s all very interconnected, from the student to the teacher to the actual work that we’re doing.” Bishop, who is aiming to complete eight credits this year and complete his high school equivalency, would like to work in scientific research or psychology eventually, he said, which means honing his skills with technology now is of utmost importance. “When Loyola was suggested to me, I wasn’t aware of the possibilities here to use technology to further your studies,” Bishop expressed. “It has helped me out so much.”

Long Road Eco Farm offers something unique and delicious going to become a farmer, they thought he was joking. “They never thought I wanted to go back to farming.” Jonathan’s family pictured a sprawling Alberta-style crop farm with giant combines. Instead, the farm they purchased on Highway 38 just north of Kingston, is comparatively cozy, with a large garden, a greenhouse, and roaming poultry. They converted an existing swimming pool into a cistern, and use it to water their garden. In their first spring on the farm they started going to a farmers’ market, but their garden wasn’t in full production yet. So Xiaobing decided to prepare some Chinese peasant food and bring that to the market. Their “farm sum” became quite popular. Xiaobing makes four flavours of steamed bun, a dumpling stuffed with pork, vegetables, tofu, or a sweet bean filling. “There’s something special

By Aric McBay

Xiaobing Shen and Jonathan Davies took an unusual path to become ecological farmers north of Kingston. Xiaobing spent his early years in a village in rural China. His mother was a peasant. His partner Jonathan grew up in southern Alberta. The two of them met in Calgary, where Xiaobing had gone to do his Master’s degree and together they spent time in Munich, Germany, before moving to Toronto. But they weren’t happy with Toronto or the daily grind of city life; part of it was the food. “Where I grew up, the pork was so delicious,” explains Xiaobing. He assumed that pig breeds in Canada were just different until he tried some organic pork and realized it had the same flavour as back home. “It’s how the pig was raised,” he realized. In Toronto, they started gardening, and watched documentaries about the industrial food system. But their garden in Toronto was so far away they had to commute to it, which made moving to a farm seem appealing. “Other young people were doing it, too,” says Jonathan. “And they seemed like sensible people, doing it for good reasons. It seemed like more people should be trying this.” Both were attracted to the

about steamed buns,” says Xiaobing. I can attest to that: the steamed buns are delicious either freshly steamed or reheated. (I like to reheat them by gently frying them with a bit of butter.) They also offer fermented vegetables and a chili sesame oil, as well as a delicious fermented tofu or “soy cheese.” Their tofu is probably the best I’ve ever tasted, in part because it really does resemble cheese. The consistency is a bit like Brie, and the strongly fermented flavour reminds me of a blue cheese. It also has a spicy chili coating. I can’t think of anything similar in European traditions, and just describing it makes me want to go get more. For a small operation, Long Road Eco Farm produces a remarkable diversity of products. They sell seasonal vegetables, including strawberries in early summer, and they have a Community Shared Agriculture (CSA) program.

Though they have settled in since moving to the area in 2013, farming in here is still very different from China. “It’s much easier here,” explains Xiaobing. “You have a lot of land and a lot of resources.” But farming in Canada is also more expensive. “Back home in the village, you can’t make much income, but in the meantime there’s not much cost.” “It’s still a really tough business,” says Jonathan. “Overall it’s been really positive. It’s a good way to live.” You can find Xiaobing and Jonathan along with their farm sum every Sunday, year round, at the Memorial Centre Farmers Market. Look for more information at http://www.longroadecofarm.ca/ as well as on their Facebook page. Aric McBay is a farmer and author.

Joe Roberts chats easily with supporters during his arrival in Kingston, Oct. 6. Roberts is on a 9,000 km, 17-month journey pushing a shopping cart across Canada to raise awareness and put an end to youth homelessness. He started the trek on May 1, 2016 in St. John’s Newfoundland and will end in Vancouver on Sept. 30, 2017. During his two days in the limestone city, Roberts met with youth at Regiopolis-Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School, spoke during a community luncheon at the Ambassador Hotel & Conference Centre and toured local agencies that work to serve youth homelessness in KFL&A. Kingston events were sponsored by Cushman & Wakefield Kingston, coordinated by United Way of KFL&A “I am thrilled to be arriving in Kingston and am humbly grateful for the support of Cushman & Wakefield Kingston and the United Way KFLA,” said Roberts upon his arrival. “I look forward to our combined efforts over two days and engaging the community to raise awareness and heighten The Push for Change message that ending youth homelessness is possible.” For more information, or to make a donation to The Push for Change campaign visit www.thepushforchange.com

Ron James returns to Kingston for two nights of taping for upcoming television special BY TORI STAFFORD tstafford@metroland.com

Events – There are few Canadians that can inspire crowds to roar with laughter the way Ron James can, and few cities in the country the comedian would rather perform in. “It’s a perfect demographic. I mean, you’ve got the university, you’ve got working class, you’ve got professionals, and, you know, it’s not Toronto!” James said of the Limestone City. “That’s the beauty of Kingston, right?” In his classic style, James couldn’t help but slip a joke in there, but he expressed his love for performing in Kingston and the city itself repeatedly as he discussed his upcoming two nights of shows happening at The Grand Theatre, which will be filmed and used for James’ New Year’s Eve comedy special that will air on CBC. “It was one of the first theatres that I sold out when I started touring 20 years ago, and the renovations that they’ve done to the theatre are phenomenal, so it’s going to look so good on television,” James said of why The Grand Theatre is such an ideal place for this filming. “And the other reason it worked out well for us, too, is because Kingston is Canada’s first capital, and the home of Sir John A., the first prime minister, and so, you know, given the fact that it’s Canada’s 150th birthday [year] the day after it airs, that plays very well into our theme.” As always, James will take on a wide range of topics in this special, entitled ‘What Just Happened,’ a nod to James’ knack for taking in the year’s current events and issues and tackling them all in an informative-yethysterical manner. Among the topics he plans to touch on during ‘What Just Happened,’ Brexit, Pokemon Go, Black Lives Matter, bathroom laws and, of course, Donald Trump are certainly sure

to entertain. At the same time, James plans to take his audiences in for a closer look at some of the issues happening here at home in Canada, he expressed. “My specials are always an assessment of the year that’s been and the place that we find ourselves on this rapidly spinning planet: It’s history, it’s current events, it’s life changes, it’s personal, it’s national… it covers a vast canvas of different topics,” James said. “I’ve been touring the country enough to know, I think, how Canadians like their comedy, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t push the envelope, either. There are some very controversial issues that needed addressing this year – The fact that 428 out of 600 reserves stretched across Canada’s boreal gulag have to still boil their water – it’s issues like that I’ll hit head on.” And even though the Liberal government has only been in power a year, that doesn’t mean he won’t be poking fun at the party or the Canadian government in general, James said. “We went from a prime minister who couldn’t smile to a new one that can’t stop!” he said in his signature, exasperated exclamation. “Every time you see him, he’s running out of a cave into Gatineau, shirtless, or walking out of the surf like some Greek god, shirtless!” From selling armed weapons to Saudi Arabia to how the Jays are stacking up on their journey towards becoming World Series champions again; from ‘legal’ marijuana to the world’s obsession with taking selfies; and from what the past 150 years have resulted in for Canada as a nation, to, of course, the good ol’ hockey game – James will talk about it all. “I’ve had this wonderful journey across Canada since I started… 20 years ago – and it’s 26 this year since I’ve been in stand up

comedy – and, you know, I made it work here, and I wanted to make it work here because I felt there were manifest mysteries and epiphanies to be had in my journeys,” James expressed. “I land on an awful lot of different topics, but ultimately, if there is any theme that runs through this show, it’s where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re going, as a people and a nation.” And for James, taping that show here in Kingston for the rest of the nation to view on New Year’s Eve is pretty much perfect. “There’s a good vibe in Kingston, I love it, you know?” he said. “It’s a vibe that I can relate to: it’s real people, living real lives.” Ron James and What Just Happened will take the stage of The Grand Theatre on Saturday, Nov. 12 and Sunday, Nov. 13 at 8 p.m.

Legendary Canadian comedian, Ron James, will be filming ‘What Just Happened’ over two nights here in Kingston at The Grand Theatre. The comedy special will span a huge variety of topics, and will air on CBC on New Year’s Eve. Submitted photo

Burton film takes peculiar turn from suspense to slap stick My Take MARK HASKINS

MOVIE: Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children STARRING: Asa Butterfield, Eva Green, Ella Purnell, Terrance Stamp, Chris O’Dowd and Samuel L. Jackson DIRECTOR: Tim Burton RATING: PG I’m not a fan of Tim Burton, but I have to admit he has a way with

these macabre fairy tales. It’s kind of his thing or at least it was. Maybe it’s time for a new thing. When Jake’s (Asa Butterfield) grandfather Abe (Terrance Stamp) is killed, Jake struggles to come to terms with it. He loved his grandfather, and the stories he told him about the home where he grew up and the peculiar friends he had. To help come to terms with his grandfather’s death Jake, and his father (Chris O’Dowd), go to a small island in the U.K. to see the home where Abe grew up. Jake finds the orphanage or what’s left of it. It was bombed in 1939 and was abandoned. Or so it seems. Jake is startled to find his grandfather’s childhood friends,

and they haven’t aged a day. Emma (Ella Purell) and the others take Jake through the time loop to 1939 to see Miss Peregrine (Eva Green). Miss Peregrine and her charges are hiding in a bubble of time where the same day repeats itself again and again thanks to Miss Peregrine’s peculiar ability. In fact all the children in the home have powers that make them peculiar and only a peculiar can come through a time loop. A peculiar like Jake. Jake isn’t aware of his peculiarity, and he doesn’t have time to come to grips with it. Monsters are coming. Monsters only Jake can see. Monsters led by Mr. Barron (Samuel L. Jackson), and Jake is the only one who can protect the children.

Strong visuals If there’s one thing Burton is good at it’s the visuals. From the costumes, to the sets, to the special effects, to the way each shot is framed, everything is meticulously crafted to achieve the look Burton wants. It’s sometimes a startling mix of the horrific and the fey, but it does have a kind of fascinating beauty. Of course Burton still can’t tell a story to save his life. Burton hasn’t quite mastered the element of time travel in the film, but worse than that is how Burton loses the mood. The story has all the makings of a dramatic and thrilling epic the kind of story that gives you shivers. Yet when we gets to the climactic

battle with the monsters we get a slap stick routine. While the farce is funny it takes all the seriousness out of the film. Instead of Harry Potter we’re left with The Three Stooges. Strong cast He may not be able to tell a story, but Burton does know how to pick a cast. Asa Butterfield is fantastic. Eva Green is marvelous as Miss Peregrine. I find Jackson to be too overthe-top to be taken seriously, but Ells Purnell is a delight. On the whole Miss Peregrine’s is largely disappointing. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature.

Dine out to help others eat well BY TORI STAFFORD tstafford@metroland.com

Events – It’s perhaps one of the nicest and easiest win-win fundraising campaigns you can imagine: all you have to do is go out for dinner. Restaurants for Change, an initiative launched by Community Food Centres Canada (CFCC), currently in its third year, is a fundraising campaign, taking place on one evening, in 15 cities across the province. With over 65 restaurants participating, the goal is to raise funds to provide healthy food and food programs in those communities that need them most. The participating restaurants donate all of the proceeds from food sales from one night: Wednesday, Oct. 19. Here in Kingston, Le Chien Noir is inviting local diners to round up their friends or book themselves a dinner date in order to raise funds and awareness for food security. “The big thing is that this is a national issue in terms of access to quality food and fresh, nutritious food,” said Tim Pater, owner of Le Chien Noir, which is now participating for its second year. “It’s a local and national issue. There are huge food deserts in Kingston where people do not have access to good, nutritious, quality food, and a big part of it is education.” Pater explained that many people, regardless of socio-economic background, remain uneducated on how to choose, prepare and cook with whole, raw foods. Sadly, the money spent on these types of products tends to stretch further, but knowing how to make that happen is a big part of the issue, he expressed. “It’s about knowing what to buy, and a lot of people don’t understand that,” he said, noting just how lucky he and many others are to be located close to a farmers’ market and see fresh produce and meats being prepared and served daily within the local restaurant culture. “People head straight for the processed food aisles when they should be heading more towards the legumes and grains and whole

foods and beans and things like that, which can stretch a lot further and are much better for you.” Le Chien Noir raised several thousand dollars during the event last year, and hopes to do the same again this year. Although the money raised won’t go directly to local food access programs, CFCC has supported Kingston’s The Loving Spoonful with resources for food education, as well as through the work the organization does to bring national attention to food access issues. “Community Food Centres Canada is more than just the skills that they teach in their kitchens and the healthy food they provide access to, it’s also about elevating that whole conversation so that we start changing our minds about what it is that people need in their lives to thrive,” said Mara Shaw, executive director of The Loving Spoonful, who voiced support of the Restaurants for Change initiative. “For all of the organizations like ours, we’re working locally, and that’s exactly where we should be, but they’re taking all of that work and giving it a national push so that we get to the point where we stop saying things like ‘Beggars can’t be choosers.’ Until we get to a point where everybody has got access to the healthy food they need, our society is not what it could be.” Just outside of Kingston, The Drake Devonshire in Wellington is also participating in this year’s Restaurants for Change event. And with one in 12 households in the Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington area unsure if they’ll have enough food for the next week or month (according to Public Health KFL&A), there’s no better reason to go out for a delicious, quality meal in the hopes all Canadians will one day be able to do the same in their own home. “I don’t think this issue is going to go away as soon as we would all like it to,” said Pater. “We’re happy to participate in Restaurants for Change, and happy to raise awareness that there is a huge inequality in terms of access to good foods.”

Tim Pater, owner of Le Chien Noir, is the only restaurateur in Kingston participating in Restaurants for Change 2016 on Wednesday, Oct. 19. The event will see over 65 restaurants across Ontario donate all of their food sales from one night to Community Food Centres Canada, which oversees and supports a huge number of food access centres nation-wide.

“It will be an opportunity for those gathered to remember the role of faith communities in the building of this nation,” said Rev. Dr. Johnston. The Scottish Presbyterians emigrating from their homeland knew the importance of public education to their new country. The Presybyterians saw that there was only one post secondary institution, Kings College, in Canada. They objected to York’s (which became Toronto) Kings College only being open to those who subscribed to the tenets of the Anglican Church. The Presbyterians saw the importance of a university established that would support all denominations and classes. According to Rev. Dr. Johnston, on December 18, 1939, a meeting was held in St. Andrew’s Church in Kingston. At that meeting a motion was passed to establish a university in Kingston. Seconding the motion was non other than John A. Macdonald, at the time in his St. Andrew’s Cross, above St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on Princess Street, also forms the centre piece of the Queen’s University Coat of mid-20s.

Celebrating Queen’s University’s 175th Anniversary classes were held at 67 Colborne Street, and then houses on Wil“Fifty years later, Sir John A. liam Street, followed by the move recalled, ‘I was a young man just into Summerhill in 1853. The university struggled ficommencing my practice and, being a Kingstonian and a Presby- nancially. Salaries were difficult terian, I was exceedingly anxious to fund. From 1846 to 1853, the that my native city should have Rev.

Without the support of the should be located no further than three miles from St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, Queen’s University would have collapsed Church.

Shortly after the founding of enrolled students in undergraduQueen’s University, there were sig- ate, graduate, post-graduate and nificant changes challenging the professional programs. “The congregation makes a real city and the university. In 1843, the designation of capital city was point of offering open doors to all removed from Kingston, hamper- students,” said Rev. Dr. Johnston. “But back at the turn of the 20th ing future growth.

Sanford Fleming noted that every year there are offerings in Presbyterian congregations across the nation to support Queen’s, and that the national General Assembly had given $500,000 to the endowment of Queen’s.” Depending on how you calculate the value, in today’s dollars that amount would range from $30,000,000 to $250,000,000. Even at the lower end of the calculation that is a huge sum of money coming from one church group. “The Presbyterians kept it going for the first 50 years,” said Rev. Dr. Johnston. “And then there was a real sense of ownership developing from the local community.” There was also support from other religious leaders, including the Roman Catholic Archbishop and the Anglican Bishop. By 1875, the Presbyterian Church had started to relinquish control of the university and actually took no part in the election of the Board of Governors. In 1906, the City of Kingston gave $50,000 for a new arts building. This donation of public funds was proof of the community’s appreciation that Queen’s was an institution open, not to one spe-

cific religious group, but to all. “Queen’s was set up by the Presbyterians at the beginning to strictly keep it out of the control of any one religious group,” said Rev. Dr. Johnston. “By 1912, there was a formal severance of the Church from the University, so the University could thrive. As soon as the freedom of the university was secure and it was clear that it would not be taken over by other churches, the Presbyterians started to withdraw. They understood that an institution of higher learning has to be for the common good.” And, thus, Queen’s became what it is today: a secular institution of the highest standards, an institution of learning recognized around the world, open to any person, regardless of belief, philosophy, race, creed or culture. In other words, it’s exactly what it’s founders hoped it would become. And now they pray for its future. The founding Church wishes to give thanks for the success of Queen’s University. “So much of life is a gift,” said Rev. Dr. Johnston. “And a

gift is not a gift until the giver is thanked.” The giver of whom the Rev. Dr. refers is the Divine Creator. “It is only right and good to remember the faith foundations of our country,” said Rev. Dr. Johnston. “Robertson Davies in Saturday night, January 1987, wrote: ‘I am convinced that Canada has a soul, and should get on better terms with it, because at the moment it is a sadly neglected aspect of our inheritance.’” As the members of the congregation of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church want us all to know, faith is an important part of the human landscape of Canada. Members of the community are welcome to join the members of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church for the 10:30 a.m. service on October 16, during the Queen’s University Homecoming Weekend, at which time thanksgiving will be offered for the gift that is Queen’s University.

A play that pulls no punches will tickle your funny bone happening. McDonagh just keeps blindsiding the audience. You think you know where things are going and suddenly no, no.” To call it a dark comedy doesn’t do The Cripple of Inishmaan justice. It’s in the deepest corner of darkness and the funniest realm of comedy. “The framing device is the filming of Man of Erin in 1934, Robert Flaherty’s documentary, where he actually staged everything. Billy Claven is If you’re looking for a family-friendly show that desperate to leave his island home and sees this as offends no one and constantly takes into consid- an opportunity,” says Roberts. eration the subtleties of race, religion and culture Throughout the play, the audience is brought of origin, best not to sit in the audience for The into the heart of Inishmaan.

Off the coast of County Galway sit the Aran Islands. One of them, Inishmaan, forms the setting for this script. Roberts explains that he was drawn to the play because of the characters. “First and foremost, because they are so distinct, and they are filled with so many idiosyncrasies,” he says. “I found them fascinating. And when reading the script, there are overtones here of Samuel Beckett. It’s close to theatre of the absurd at times. I found it hysterically funny.” He’s not exaggerating. What McDonagh is best at is humor in the extreme, the absurd extreme. On the other hand, he captures small town Ireland, or small town just about any place where people are close to the earth, down to the finest detail. “Not to scare people off, but it’s provocative,” says Roberts. “It throws political correctness to the wind with gleeful abandon.

ADVISING ON:

A play that pulls no punches will tickle your funny bone Continued from page 10

Line after line and scene after scene draw us closer to the characters. If you’ve ever sat in an Irish pub (a real one in a place like Dingle in Ireland, not some “plastic Paddy” place in North America) or my ancestral family’s kitchen, you’ll recognize the banter. From scene two: Helen: “Sure, look at as pretty as I am. If I’m pretty enough to get clergymen groping me arse, it won’t be too hard to wrap film fellows round me fingers.” Bartley: “Sure, getting clergymen groping your arse doesn’t take much skill. It isn’t being pretty they go for. It’s more being on your own and small.” Helen: “If it’s being on your own and small, why so has Cripple Billy never had his arse groped by priests?” Bartley: “You don’t know at all Cripple Billy’s never had his arse groped by priests.” Helen: “Have you ever had your arse groped by priests, Cripple Billy?” Billy: “No.” Helen. “Now.” Bartley: “I supposed they have to draw the line somewhere.” There’s no relaxing the banter anywhere through the script. It’s tight. It’s funny. At times, it’s painfully sad (but, again, no spoilers here). “It’s about storytelling,” said Roberts. “It’s close to my heart. I think at the heart of the play is the stories we tell to amuse, protect and delude ourselves.” The characters in The Cripple of Inishmaan say the things we sometimes think, without any fi lter. Of course I’d never expect to hear those things outside of my home surroundings, and places like rural Ireland, where there are few— actually no—filters to urban niceties and political correctness. There, those who form the salt of the earth say the things those in proper circles never dare utter aloud lest they soil themselves. I can still hear by late grandmother’s voice

telling me: “You’re runnin’ around like a bluetail fl y on a horse’s arse.” It’s easy to understand why there are so many great Irish storytellers when you realize we grow up surrounded by metaphors such as that gem. From curtain to curtain in The Cripple of Inishmaan, the audience is taken deep into the Irish psyche, into the day-to-day life of rural Ireland of the 1930s. “It’s darkly and wickedly funny,” said Roberts. “I think it’s rather timely as well, because McDonagh is very critical of storytellers and their motivations and what they hope to achieve with the story they’re telling, even if it’s not true. We are getting a steady diet, a banquet of that, in the media right now.” Roberts says he’s got a dream cast for the play. “We held open auditions,” says Roberts. “A good number came out to auditions. We hit a motherlode of talent. This cast is a director’s gift. I couldn’t ask for more. It’s an ensemble piece and we have a tight, precise and passionate ensemble for this play.” With the same witticism with which McDonagh has written The Cripple of Inishmaan, Sean Roberts tells me: “It’s definitely not a play for the entire family. I also want to point out that no pigs, cats or eggs will be harmed in the mounting of this production.” That will make sense after you’ve seen The Cripple of Inishmaan.

Annual Vital Signs report points to support for children, adolescents and food security as areas for improvement in Kingston community By Tori Stafford tstafford@metroland.com

Additionally, the report indicates increased issues in the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Emotional Maturity and Social Competenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of children six and under when compared to the previous Early Development Index cycle, which occurred in 2011. According to the report, the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Hotel Dieu Hospital provided psychiatric services to 12,605 patient visits for those aged 18 years or younger between April 1, 2015 and March 30, 2016. With regard to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Food Security,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; the report indicates that over eight per cent of households in Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington (KFL&A) are affected by food insecurity. There is a strong link between poverty and food insecurity, according to the report, and both remain a â&#x20AC;&#x153;troubling reality in our communityâ&#x20AC;?: Community charity Loving Spoonful, which facilitates access to fresh and healthy food, amassed over 39 tons of fresh and preserved food for those in KFL&A with an additional 10 tons of food harvested through the Robinson Community Garden; one in 12 homes are unsure of whether theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have enough food for the next week or month; and one in three users of the Partners and Mission Food Bank is a child.

Annual Vital Signs report points to support for children, adolescents and food security as areas for improvement in Kingston community area, Community Risk Watch has two ‘Situation Tables’ – one for Kingston and Frontenac, and another for the Napanee area. These Situation Tables bring together multiple agencies and services, and meet once a week to review cases that have been brought to their attention as families or individuals experiencing acutely elevated levels of risk, which need immediate attention. This format allows for rapid response in a streamlined format, bringing all of the services a family or individual needs together. The Kingston-Frontenac Situation Table alone has reviewed 31 cases in the past half year, said Lisa Holmes, chair of the KFL&A Community Risk Watch. “The age range that we’re seeing predominately is the 12 to 25 age range, so youth and younger adults,” Holmes said, explaining that hard data from the organization is not yet available simply because it has only been in service for about six months. Additionally, many of the cases are being brought forward through the same agencies time and again, which means those cases are often similar in nature, but not entirely representative of all of the issues impacting the community. “A lot of our cases at this point are being brought forward by Kingston Police, Family and Children’s Services and Addiction and Mental Health Services. Because of those being the three agencies predominantly bringing the cases forward, most of our cases involve men-

The report also points out a need for those in Kingston and the area to increase their ‘Community Engagement’: With only 33 per cent of residents volunteering in the 2013 year, Kingston was 11 per cent below the national and provincial average. Both Tina Bailey, executive director of CFKA, and George Wright, project manager for the Vital Signs working group pointed to collaborative efforts between agencies as some of the “good news” included in the report. “One of the best things, in my mind, is that it’s inspiring to see the collaboration that is happening in getting the groups together to address issues,” Bailey said. “We’re seeing the breaking down of the silos and groups coming together to address the needs of the community, and that’s a really positive thing.” “The coordination and the number of agencies working with one another are very positive,” echoed Wright. “There are 18 [agencies] with Community Risk Watch, and there are so many involved in the work that Pathways is doing… It’s amazing. People working together is very important.” The KFL&A Community Risk Watch initiative launched just under six months ago and aims to “build safer and healthier communities.” Within the

tal health, families or young people.” Holmes expressed, noting that a majority of the cases the Situation Table has reviewed have been those of individuals as opposed to families. “We’ve had a lot of really good response from the individuals who have been offered help. People are really appreciative that there are so many people in the community that care about their situation and are willing to do something about it.” In addition to the three major issues presented by The Vital Signs report, the ‘Community Dashboard’ looks at 15 areas of concern in the community, and compares those areas to the same report last year. Of note, the Community Dashboard indicates a decrease in the overall crime 3690 rate for the area, and points to the local policing model’s focus on proac-

tive prevention methods. The Dashboard also shows a decrease in the unemployment rate for youth aged 15 to 24, and a substantial improvement in voter turnout for national elections, up 6.9 per cent since 2011 (a 70.3 per cent turnout for the 2015 election). Conversely, the number of children in

KFL&A who are kindergarten ready has decreased since 2011, and the number of meals served to those in need, is up by 171 meals since 2015, indicating there are more families and individuals facing food insecurity. To find out more or read the 2016 Vital Signs report, go to www.cfka.org.

Providence Village plans move forward with potential community partners on board By Mandy Marciniak mandymarciniak@metroland.com

News – In May of 2015, the Sisters of Providence announced their plans to turn their Motherhouse property, located at 1200 Princess Street, into a concept they call ‘Providence Village’. Now, just over a year later, plans are moving forward for that village and they include a number of community organizations. “We began this project because our numbers are declining and we wanted to be sure that after there were no more sisters that our mission of serving vulnerable people in Kingston would continue,” explained Sister Sandra Shannon, General Superior of the Sisters of Providence at an announcement on Oct. 3 at the Motherhouse. Among the organizations interested in pursuing the possibility of locating services on-site at Providence Village are Hospice Kingston, the YMCA of Kingston, Loving Spoonful, H’Art Centre and the Kingston House of Recovery for Women and Children. “We have been looking for a site where we can locate with other organizations in a supportive community and this is just perfect

for us,” said Maggie Hogan, a member of the board of directors of the Kingston House of Recovery for Women and Children. “We currently don’t have a site, we are currently running a pilot project using community resources, but our long term goal is to have a facility, just like this.” Hogan and her organization work to provide space for mothers dealing with substance abuse issues to receive treatment with their children, something very few treatment centres provide. “There is a need for these services in our community and the only facilities like this in Canada are in Montreal or Vancouver,” she explained. “There are a lot of women who don’t seek help for substance abuse because of their children and they don’t feel safe or comfortable leaving them. It is a real barrier.” Hogan thinks that a community setting like Providence Village would be extremely beneficial for mothers seeking treatment and their families too. “We would be thrilled to have gardens that clients could use and help cultivate and green space to use, she said. “Working with other agencies that care about people

and are trying to improve the lives of people is so important.” Plans for the Providence V i l l a g e , which would also include Providence Manor longterm care home, are still in very early stages, but conversations are moving forward and assessment studies are already taking place. “We spent some time doing a community Sister Sandra Shannon, General Superior of the Sisters of Providence (center) with repreneeds assessment and we looked sentatives of potential community partners in Providence Village. Mandy Marciniak/Metroland at the needs Sisters of Providence, has been parts of the property itself.” of the people There is no specific timeline in this area and the people living looking at similar models throughout in Kingston and we were able to North America where community for Providence Village yet, but use so many great local resources groups have come together in this according to Goodwin, a lot of to really build an understanding way to help in planning. They have the timeline will depend on the of what the needs are,” explained also been looking at how all of community organizations involved Jenn Goodwin, senior director the organizations would fit on the and how they all fit together. For Sister Shannon, the entire of community relations and actual property itself. “We had all these great ideas project is very exciting and she looks strategy for Providence Care at the and we wanted to make sure that it forward to seeing it come together announcement. G o o d w i n would fit on the site,” said Goodwin. in the coming years. “Providence Village will be our also explained “We did some high level planning that the steering looking at the 31 acres of property legacy,” she said. “And it will be c o m m i t t e e , here at the Motherhouse and we made of, we hope, organizations which includes thought about things like how to that want to serve the vulnerable members of the maintain green space and maintain people in Kingston.”

Moving the Findlay Oval was a team effort Friday, so it would be well cooled off by the time it was moved. Being Saturday, the brothers were home from school, and it would take every hand to move the big stove back where it belonged. With any luck, the stove would be up and running in time for supper. Heaven forbid that Father didn’t have a full meal at the end of the day! Always, the stove was rolled in and out on logs, but Father had a better idea that year. He spent hours in the work shed building a

platform on wheels, and it was his intention to hoist the stove onto this trolley, and slide it right into the kitchen. Of course, it would have to be lifted onto the trolley first. And I remembered how the brothers and Father struggled to get it onto the logs and then roll it It was time. There was a bite into the summer kitchen. Father in the air. This was the day the said it weighed more than two work Findlay Oval would be moved from horses put together. Everyone was the summer kitchen back into the in bad humour by the time it was all house. It had been allowed to go over. So the trolley, I hoped would out the night before after supper on work out just fine. The stove pipes had to be taken down first, and it was my sister Audrey’s and my job to shake soot out, If I could show you a way to reduce your the and make sure they were clean mortgage/debt quicker and save on enough to attach interest costs, would you be interested in back to the stove it was back hearing more? Give me a call to discuss when in the kitchen. I stayed well the Manulife One account away from Helping You get from Where You are Now, to Where You Want to Be Financially. the summer

kitchen when the lifting started. I couldn’t bear to see the red faces, and the veins standing out in their necks, as they struggled with the load. Well! That move was different from all others! Father could be heard swearing at Everett, who was yelling at Emerson, who was blaming young Earl. Someone, Father roared, had forgotten to empty the reservoir, and as soon as the stove was tilted in the move, the water sloshed out, and covered Father from his waist to the top of his work boots. To say he wasn’t happy was an understatement! So there sat the stove. Two legs on the trolley, and the other two on the summer kitchen floor. With the water pouring out like a rushing river. I stood in the doorway, and it was like watching a Hopa-long Cassidy Movie. For a few minutes Father stood and looked at the water running down his front, and the reservoir door hanging open. Emerson, Everett and Earl stood looking at Father for further instructions. I was amazed at how much water the reservoir could hold. With the toe of his work boot, Father maneuvered the braided rug that was close by, over to the pool of water on the floor. Of course, that only spread the water further, and did nothing to sop up what can come out of the reservoir. He sent Earl in the for the rag bag. “And don’t bring one rag. Bring the whole bag,” he hollered. In the meantime, he was asking who had the job of emptying the water. Emerson pointed to Everett, and Everett pointed in the general direction of Earl going out

the door for the rag bag, shaking his head and saying “not me”. Earl brought in what used to be an old flour bag pillow slip, now filled with pieces of old underwear, sweaters, and anything else that could no longer be considered usable. Father grabbed it, and without taking one thing out of it, used the entire full bag as a mop. Mother would not be pleased, and I knew the rags would have to be washed, dried and restored in the bag for further use. Finally, as much water as possible was wiped up, the stove heaved onto the trolley, and moved back into the house. The pipes were put on. It took several hours to put everything back in order, a new fire lit, and supper put on the stove to cook. Father was as cross as a bear with a sore paw, the brothers were still accusing each other of failing to empty the reservoir, and I was sitting in a corner of the kitchen pretending to read my newest book from the Renfrew Library. But I couldn’t help thinking of the night before when the whole house was getting ready for the big move, and Mother, right in the middle of the chaos said. “I think Mary is old enough to help this year. She can empty the reservoir.” I was grateful Mother didn’t remember giving me the job, and I reasoned owning up to it, would just add more chaos to an already out-of-hand situation.

Wolfe Island Ferry moved to Dawson Point Terminal by Margaret Knott

It’s that time of year on Wolfe Island, dreaded by many, appreciated by others, when the Wolfe Islander ferry moves to the Dawson Point dock, same schedule but away from the village of Marysville. MTO determined it was time to do so because of lower water levels. As stated in MTO’s public communique, “This move is necessary due to the sudden seasonal decline in the water levels of Lake Ontario. Reports show an ongoing downward trend. The safety of the Wolfe Islander III passengers and ferry vessel is always a priority for this Ministry. Moving to the winter dock at Dawson Point on Wolfe Island will ensure the continuation of the ferry’s operation during the seasonal low levels of Lake Ontario.” MTO leaves the ferry operating from Maryville to at least Thanksgiving, or Christmas, water levels permitting. Some years it never moved at all. 2. Community Events You may have missed: The history of the Wolfe Island Boat Club (WIBC) is like the story of ‘The Little Engine That Could’, beginning with a few enthusiastic boaters saying, we can do this . And they have. Most recently MPP Sophie Kiwala visited the WIBC along with Jim Roustel, Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) Volunteer, to join with WIBC’s Commodore Tom Wroe, Nicole Clark, Treasurer, Frontenac Islands Mayor Denis Doyle , Councillor Wayne Grant, members and friends for a ribbon-cutting ceremony marking the results of a $19,800 OTF Capital grant used to install a new dock, buy rowing equipment and Laser sailboats. MPP Kiwala expressed delight with what the OTF grant has allowed to club to accomplish not only with regard

There’s

to infrastructure and equipment but to provide opportunities for people of all ages to engage in water recreation and sport. Tom Wroe noted its impact, first the new dock allowing rowers to launch skulls and with new oars, then the club adding sculling to their list of coached rowing programs. “With the addition of the Lasers participation in family race nights exceeded our expectations and all the boats were sailed all summer. With the added safety equipment the club was able to reach out to younger members of the community,” he said. As an incorporated not-forprofit, the WIBC is a volunteerrun, community organization that aims to provide a variety of sailing and rowing camps and programs, as well as drop-in Dragon Boating, canoeing and kayaking, from pre-school age onward. WIBC programs include After School Sailing, Summer Kid’s Camp, and ‘Little Kid’s Camp’ for preschoolers, Learn to Row Clinics, Coached Rowing, Family Race Nights, drop-in Dragon Boating, canoeing and kayaking.
