Nine year-old Josh McKenney, of Oxford Mills, will be on Terry’s Team in this year’s Terry Fox run held at Riverside Park. Participants on Terry’s Team are reserved for those who have survived cancer and symbolize hope. However his mother remembers the relief of finding out her son’s type of cancer was treatable. “When the doctors said it was Hodgkin’s, I had no idea what that was. That was the hardest,” she said. “I was thinking caskets and pallbearers.” Although the experience wasn’t as bad as Fiona thought, it reminded her how lucky she was that it wasn’t a worse form of cancer. “His hair fell out, but he was the healthiest looking cancer kid ever in the grand scheme of things,” she said. However, she added, it was difficult for her
and Josh when people would stare at him after he lost his hair. So to take the attention away from her son, Fiona shaved her head complete with a green Mohawk. “When people see the bald-headed grown woman, they stop staring at the little bald kid,” she said. While Josh was in recovery, Fiona created a patch with Josh’s face on it and sewed it on the back of her jacket. Along with the picture of Josh, Fiona also sewed in the words, “chemo took my son’s hair but didn’t take his smile. I shaved off my hair to keep the smile there.”

NEW MAYORAL CANDIDATE
Josh McKenney was only five years-old when he was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. While his form of cancer was one of the most curable types, it wasn’t always that easily treatable. “He told me that 20 years ago, if no one raised money for cancer, he would be dead,” said his mother, Fiona McKenney. “His cancer was incurable 20 years ago.” Today, Josh is a typical nine year-old from Oxford Mills who enjoys video games, swimming and bouncing on his trampoline. But he’s also taking his love for running and giving back to others who are suffering with cancer. Josh will be on Terry’s Team at this year’s Terry Fox Run held at Riverside Park on Sept. 19. “I read a book about when Terry Fox was trying to run across Canada,” he said. “I was pretty amazed.” The spot on Terry’s Team is reserved for those who have survived cancer. According to the Terry Fox Run website, participants on Terry’s Team are symbols of hope and a reminder of the legacy Terry left behind. Josh doesn’t remember a lot of things from his treatment, except for the hospital food at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. “I ate bacon, ham and sausage – but definitely not eggs,” he said. “They were basically a scoop of margarine. That’s what it tasted like.” He also remembers a couple of other children he met in the hospital – particularly a roommate who had the same type of bone cancer as Terry Fox and had his leg removed. “I had my neck sewed up, but I don’t remember anything else really,” Josh said.

Some have said that 70 percent of family businesses, as a rule, will not make it through to the next generation. Changing times, challenging circumstance and the never ending search for a better bottom line has forced many small businesses and family businesses to find a different way to survive. In Kemptville, loyal Sears catalogue customers have been able to enjoy the services of the local Sears outlet for the past 45 years. Beginning with Pauline and Gord Windsor, in 1965, three generations of that family have maintained the Sears outlet in Kemptville. The outlet is located on Water Street right across from the Kemptville Courthouse. Sears has decided to move their outlet up to the Kemptville Mall ending nearly half a century of service in downtown Kemptville. Vickie followed in her mother’s footsteps in taking over the successful franchise operation. Her mother, Pauline ran the shop providing the kind of customer service that could

Vicki has continued the family tradition of offering her customers great customer services, quality products and efficient service. Her husband, Kevin Telford would help with deliveries along with their children Brandon and Shaylin. The
children became the third generation in the family to work at the outlet. Kevin can remember keeping the outlet as current as possible. “Over the years extensive repairs and improvements to the building have continued to be made, respecting the heritage that makes the Kemptville downtown core such a pride to the community,� he said.

Marilyn Holmes has been a customer at the outlet for the past 33 years. “I have known them for so long,� said Marilyn who has stopped by to chat. Marilyn agrees that good customer service is what has set this particular Sears outlet apart from all others. “In the beginning,� remembers Vicki, “it was strictly catalogues at that time.� These days are very different from the distant past. The outlet is home to new appliances and a never ending stream of customers dropping by to pick up their ordered items. Kevin gets to deliver the bigger ones while packages that can be carried are simply picked up at the front counter. Greeting people by their names as they come through the door to pick up their order, Vicki busies herself with chatting with them while she processes their order. She can remember coming into the store when she was a little girl and helping out her mother by taking orders over the phone. She can also remember being able to match all of those phone numbers with the names of the people who would come in the store. The reason for the move was simple. Sears wanted their outlet to have more room. “No matter what, we were moving,� she said. Despite feeling disappointed that Sears could not give them more time to find a new location and chose instead to relocate the outlet at the Kemptville Mall at the Box Office Entertainment store, Vicki says the business will continue. Sears has asked her to move with the outlet and bring all of that family business and customer service experience with her. While the aspect of half century of family business may be coming to an end, the business of helping people have a good shopping experience has not. Kevin said that while the outlet is moving and the family is no longer looking after it as before, he is confident that the relationships between customers and the family will continue, just in a different location. “I want to thank the people of Kemptville,� he said, “for their patronage and continued support over our last 45 years of service.� The ending of an era is admittedly a sad moment for Kevin, Vicki, Shaylin and Brandon but the legacy their family leaves behind is one they are proud of.

that might arise from a growing community, but said the kind of public consultation and open government he wants would help solve some problems. “You have to keep people in the loop,” Gordon said. His volunteerism stretches from his work with the Kemptville Kinsmen Club to being the founding member of The Kin Winter and Family Fun Day. In between, Gordon has helped maintain the Kemptville Creek skating rink for almost 20 years, helped with the annual Kemptville Christmas/Santa Claus parade and also volunteered with health organizations including the MS Society and Cancer Society.

For 27 years, David Gordon’s name has been well-known around North Grenville’s volunteer world, policing and politics. Now, his name will also be known in this year’s municipal election as one of North Grenville’s mayoral candidates. “I felt that we needed someone with leadership,” said Gordon, who said one of his major concerns was the debt load in the township. Gordon said he has had experience with debt management through his volunteer work in health and education boards. Gordon is also currently the president of the Leeds and Grenville Federal Conservative Association and vice-president of the Leeds and Grenville Provincial Progressive Conservative Association. He has served as director of the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark Health Board. As vice-chair of the Leeds and Grenville Board of Education, Gordon helped in the construction of South Branch Elementary School, purchasing land for the new North Grenville high school and has helped bring French Immersion to the school board. With the municipality in a changing and growing climate, Gordon said one of the things a mayor should not forget is the people. “I believe in an open government. I believe in openness and truthfulness,” he said. He said he’s aware of conflicts

kind of volunteerism reflects what his overall vision is for North Grenville, he said. “I don’t want [North Grenville] to be a Barrhaven,” Gordon said. “The growth has to compliment our existing community, and a lot of people moved here to get away from the big city.” Gordon has been married to his wife Pamela for 38 years – who was also a past Kemptville municipal councillor. In addition to being co-founder of the Kemptville and Area Youth Centre, he is currently a member of the Committee for Affordable Housing in North Grenville. “I believe people should be proud of their community,” he said.

OPINION EDITORIAL
COMMUNITY
The solution to sign pollution The issue of “sign pollution” has been in the news recently in North Grenville – and for good reason. People are unaware that when they post signs for their garage sale or business on a hydro pole, they need permission from the hydro company that owns the pole. It makes sense. Residents wouldn’t want a stranger posting an advertisement on their property. And then there’s the issue of Old Town Kemptville. The classic-style poles that line the old town are brand spanking new, but are already getting worn and paint-chipped with people posting their signs on them. These signs are creating eyesores, especially where millions of dollars was recently pumped into the old downtown to make it look visually pleasing. But the people who are posting these signs will argue they need to get their message out. Business windows, grocery store bulletin boards and paying to take out ads aren’t good enough. And it won’t be good enough for thousands of new residents who will be moving to North Grenville. They, too, will be hosting garage sales, losing pets, and leading fundraisers in the community. What the municipality needs to do is come up a solid plan on how to move all this “sign pollution” without slapping people with fines. In Ottawa, signs are prohibited from being posted on poles across the main downtown area. However, the city came up with a solution of erecting “sign-designated” poles around the community. By doing this, residents don’t have to contact the hydro company before posting a sign nor do they have to worry about damaging expensive street light poles and chipping paint. It doesn’t necessarily solve the “visually-pleasing” aspect of the issue – these wide, steel poles are on street corners and dispersed throughout the area. However, it shows a compromise that worked to benefit everyone. People get their message out, and municipal staff and council don’t need to worry about pole damage. In order to prepare for this expected increase in population, North Grenville needs to start worrying about the finer details like sign pollution.

OPP tip of the week Drinking and driving is a deadly combination. One drink can reduce your ability to concentrate and react to things that happen suddenly while you are driving. The more alcohol in your blood, the more difficulty you have judging distances and reacting to sudden hazards on the road. To make matters even worse, your vision may become blurred. Also, any drug that changes your mood, or the way you see and feel, will affect the way you drive. This is not only true for illegal drugs. There are prescription drugs and some over-thecounter drugs that can also impair your driving ability. Remember, fatigue and stress will also affect your ability to drive.

Why I love the library
I was raised by a single mother in a low income neighbourhood. We did not own a car until I was seven years old and there were no libraries within walking distance of my home. I looked forward to grocery shopping every week. I would leave my mother at the main entrance and run over to the cereal aisle. There, I would go straight to a basket filled with books. I would sit on the floor and read as many books as I could. My mother bought me some books which included 45 rpm records. I would follow along and let my imagination run free. During the summer months I would spend some time at my grand parents’ home. They lived in the country. Their home had a screened-in porch at the back. There was a small bookshelf there with decades of Farmer’s Almanac and a few cookbooks. There were four children’s books; one for each season. I would spend hours reading the same four books over and over again. When I was in grade one, we would spend some time at the library every

week. The bottom shelf held books for first graders. It contained a series of books titled; Martine. I loved those books. They described a wealthy young girl who travelled with her family. I lived vicariously through her and really loved the title because I idolized my cousin whose name was Martine. When my mother was able to purchase a car, we drove to the closest library located in Vanier on White Fathers Street. I could pick any topic of interest to me and find a book that would teach me about it and answer my questions. To this day, I always need a book to read and I often read a few books at a time. Having my two beautiful daughters has raised my appreciation of books to a new level. Knowledge is power. Each time they recognize a letter or count along with me I know they are learning. When we read about feelings and they are able to say; “That hurt my feelings” instead of hitting or having a tantrum I am grateful to books. Books are powerful. I get ideas for my art therapy workshops

from books, I use books in my child yoga classes and I have published two stories because I recognize the potential for books to heal, empower and inspire. On May 30th 2010, my husband and I took our two daughters; Molly (age 4) and Stella (age 22 months) to the Dandelion Festival. Molly had her face painted, Stella got a balloon animal and they both spent a good deal of time at the petting zoo. We made our way over to the Mad Hatter workshop. It was coming to an end but the volunteers found a hat and a seat for Molly. They brought ribbon and decorations so she could get to work designing her own top hat. I walked around the Room-to-Read fundraising office (125 Prescott Street) and noticed an architectural drawing of the proposed North Grenville Public Library. There was such a buzz in the room. I would not be where I am today without access to free books through the library. Anne Walsh Kemptville

A ribbon cutting ceremony was held to celebrate the completion of McCordick Road’s upgrades. The project was finished on time, on budget, and will provide a route between Kemptville and Kanata. This was part of the Economic Action Plan and involved removal and replacement of some culverts, granular upgrade, the application of a double surface treatment, and slurry seal. There were also some earthworks to improve the line-of-sight at one location. The cost was $620,000 which is under budget, and the total time to repair the road was about three months. Cutting the ribbon from left to right are Trevor Griese, City of Ottawa roads department, Glenn Brooks, City of Ottawa councillor, Pierre Poilievre, Member of Parliament for Nepean-Carleton and Glenn Hayes, City of Ottawa roads department.

Osgoode resident hopes final verdict isn’t in yet November, allowing for pedestrians to use the pathway by the spring. Crushed limestone will be the surface of choice on the trail – which stretches from Buckles Street in Osgoode to Leitrim Road in Riverside South near the airport. The crushed limestone is tough on walkers, but allows for optimum conditions for motorized vehicles, who continue to use the trail. Thompson’s mid-year report last July stated the pathway would be paved, but the 2009 final report stated otherwise. He later said that the $1.4 million covered the costs of gates and consultants that had to be included in the project. Therefore the pathway simply could not be paved due to costs. Public consultation meetings at Osgoode Community Centre on Feb. 25 and at Greely Community Centre on March 4 resulted in a steering committee being formed to determine the best course of action for the pathway. While Thompson maintains the steering committee members were all volunteers who came forward after the two public meetings, Wallace-Graner – who sat on the committee – didn’t think the membership was a fair reflection of the all the concerned parties. “His bias towards snowmobiles was evident and the findings from the committee were predictable,” Wallace-Graner

In total there will be 21 gates. The Osgoode councillor admits things cannot continue as they are now.

Osgoode resident Karen Wallace-Graner kneels by the stretch of the soon-to-be reconstructed multi-use pathway. ley ATV club president Theo Janssen agrees that four-wheelers should not be allowed on the contentious stretch of the trail right now. The Winchester-based club leader believes snowmobilers in the area are better organized and have a better relationship with the city. “We’re hoping to maybe gain access to some different areas,” Janssen said. “We’re hoping with that and the trails that we’re developing in this area (Winchester), it’ll be good enough proof that we’re there to help.” The ATVers debate will reopen in 2013, when the limestone surface has time to settle properly. A transportation plan review will begin in November once pathway construction is complete. Even though he can’t say unequivocally that snowmobilers will be allowed to use the path because the review has yet to occur, Thompson believes he is making a safe assumption in saying they’ll be on the trails going forward. In fact, their agreement is in place for the 2010-11 season. Thompson expects a plan to be put in place by January that will be determine what should be allowed on rural pathways going forward. “No one would envision riding a snowmobile down along the canal or a bike path in urban Nepean or Barrhaven,” Thompson said, “but in the rural areas, it’s a little different.” Wallace-Graner doesn’t think there should be a difference based on how the city’s official plan defines as a pathway right now.

Turkeys on the loose Chickens From Page 7 I much prefer the turkeys to the chickens, because they don’t peck, they are curiously entertaining with their synchronized gobbles and they are always happy to see me. They run over warbling to my side of the room when I hang my leg over the half wall and drop into their pen. We are getting to know our neighbours very well and vice versa, whether they like it or not. One day Julie showed up at the door and announced that one of her little dogs had the turkeys “hostage”. I thought that odd, because our turkeys were in a pen. “No, they’re not,” she said. Sure enough, the turkeys were running around the barnyard in one big feathered wave, from corner to corner – but they couldn’t
cross over to the open field because a fluffy little dog that looked like he would fit in a latte cup was doing a fine job of herding them. The dog knew the gig was up when he saw the two of us approaching, however, and allowed himself to be picked up and scolded. “Oh, don’t be too hard on him,” I said. “If it wasn’t for him, I would have turkeys all over the field.” I didn’t know how I was going to get them back in their pen, but decided to start by unrolling the wire fence and stretching it across the opening to the pasture. Then I held my arms out and shooed them toward their pen. And they ran in. One by one, directed by my arms. That was easy. I pulled the door shut and examined the damage. Obviously one of our cows had busted in. I wedged a
piece of wood across the door and told the turkeys to stay put. A chorus of garbles replied. Never a dull moment on the farm. I guess the neighbours are quickly learning that the bucolic existence they imagined can sometimes be a little more exciting than living in the suburbs. I’m sure they were quite thrilled to look out their kitchen window Saturday morning to see Bonnie and Clyde (aka Horse and Donkey) munching on their front lawn. So her show dog pooped on my lawn and teased the heck out of my farm dog. As Julie said, I think we’re more than even. To the reader who sent me his old collection of farm magazines, thank you very much! They are literary antiques.

KIM SHELDRICK Special to the Advance
On Saturday June 12, in Ottawa, 55 youth members of the Voyageur Council of Scouts Canada were honoured for earning the highest awards in Scouting; the Chief Scout Award, and the Queen’s Venturer Award. These awards were founded by the former Governor General of Canada, Roland Michener in 1973. Thirteen of those youth are from Rideau Area Scouting Groups, represented by 1st Gree-
ly, 1st Manotick, 1st North Gower, 1st Osgoode, and 28th Ottawa. These youth were all honoured for their work in the community, their skills in leadership, environmental stewardship, and personal and outdoor skills development, all of which form a component of the award. As Parents/Scouters/Friends, we are extremely proud of these youth and their commitment to making this world a better place.

Household Survey (NHS) and the audience it targets. “The concern now is that the response rate may be much lower because the public has been made very aware of the voluntary nature of the survey,” said Craig Alexander, President of Canadian Association for Business Economics. The biggest concern for data users is that there may be a bias built into the responses depending on which groups don’t fill out the survey. “The demographic most likely to respond to the NHS will be those who are comfortable with the Internet because that will be one of the options and who are comfortable in one of Canada’s official languages and most importantly who have time. That is a problem because persons with challenges of income, time (children, multiple jobs etc), age, health, rural areas will be least likely to respond,” said Paul M. Jacobson, vice president Canadian Association for Business Economics. It will also affect the ability of anyone using the data to compare it with previous data – as is often necessary when examining trends over time. “If you make a change to a data series such as this one, you create a break in the series,” said Alexander. Statscan, whose chief statistician resigned over the changes and the governments puzzling attempt to pin the changes on his agency, admits that the NHS data may not be comparable to previous mandatory censuses. “While the data will be useful for many data users, the quality of the information will not be equivalent to a mandatory long-form census, “ said Frayne In the meantime, the new NHS will still attempt to collect much of the same data collected with the mandatory census in the past - to what effect has yet to be determined.

United Counties respond to emerald ash borer threat KRISTY WALLACE
kristy.wallace@metroland.com
Residents living anywhere within the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville are warned to watch for a type of beetle that is known to kill a large number of ash trees in Ontario and northeastern United States. The Canadian Food Inspection Agen-
cy recently confirmed the presence of the beetle – known as the emerald ash borer – in the United Counties. “One of the key messages we want to get out to the public is that the main way people can slow the spread of thus destructive beetle is by restricting the movement of wood to non-infested areas,” said Geoff McVey, United Counties of Leeds and Grenville forest man-
ager. “This includes ash logs, branches, nursery stock and wood chips, as well as firewood of all species. The main mode of transportation for this beetle is through the movement of wood.” The emerald ash borer is not threatening to human health, but is a very destructive insect feeding on ash trees, not including the mountain ash. See Emerald page 14
Natural Resources Canada photo
This is the beetle known as the emerald ash borer that has killed a large number of ash tress in Ontario, and has now been found within the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville.

Emerald ash borer threat in Leeds-Grenville
Kemptville Advance - AUGUST 19, 2010
14
From United page 12
The beetle, which is described as “strikingly beautiful”, emerges from the tree in May and creates a small Dshaped hole. It lays eggs in the bark’s crevices, and when they’re hatched it eats away under the bark, cutting off flows of nutrients to the tree. McVey said those who are particularly at risk would be parks and campground operators where visitors bring their own firewood. “It should be inspected and if you think there is ash wood or if it comes from a quarantined area then the wood should be seized and burned,” he said. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency will establish quarantine

boundaries with input from the United Counties this fall to help control the spread. This means the movement of wood will be restricted to within the boundaries of the quarantine. “Once the ministerial order is established, we will be able to get more facts on how it affects firewood dealers and mill operators,” said McVey. To help control the threat of emerald ash borer, the United Counties are also establishing a task force on Aug. 25 which will help in the communication and public education about the beetle. It may address issues like making recommendations to the Canadian
Food Inspection Agency on quarantine boundaries, taking local ash tree inventories – especially in the urban areas and encouraging land owners not to remove live and unaffected ash trees, to name a few. “Overall we want to preach patience to the public,” said McVey. “In the forest industry we’ve known this was coming. It’s unfortunate, but it’s not a surprise. Don’t panic and cut all of your ash trees because some trees may prove to be tolerant or resistant.” For more information on the emerald ash borer, contact the Canadian Food Inspection Agency at 1-866-4636017 or check out: www.inspection. gc.ca/pests

His smiling way and pleasant face Are a pleasure to recall. He had a kindly word for each And died dearly loved by all. Someday we hope to meet him Someday, we know not when. To clasp his hand in a better land Never to part again. Sadly missed by Kathy, Charlie, Charlene and Kyle

hood over two weekends and got 118 people to sign a petition to protest the pathway’s improvements as they currently stand. Their 10 reasons for not allowing any form of motorized vehicles on the pathway and not improving it include invasion of privacy, reduced home values, excess fumes, and heightened noise – sometimes reaching dou-
ble the amount of legal decibels permitted. “We’re here because we want this,” Wallace-Graner said. Thompson agreed that WallaceGraner and the rest of Osgoode’s affected residents should get the privacy they deserve, but wants to continue to give snowmobilers their chance. “We will be instituting bar-

riers to prevent ATVs and dirt bike, which I’m sure are much more annoying and have a much longer time frame to be ripping up and down there than the snowmobiles,” saod Thompson. Thompson believes snowmobiles are actually more of a help than a hindrance. “There’s been very few complaints registered in terms of snowmobilers using that trail during the winter,” he said. The 10 committee members voted in favour of having snowmobiles on the path, with Wallace-Graner being the only one opposed. While she said she’s been called selfish for taking the stance she has, Wallace-Graner believes she’s looking out for other active people like herself. Her husband was not able to run a cross-country ski camp through the Osgoode Youth Association Centre because his insurance wouldn’t cover it. Wallace-Graner hopes she has enough time to make a difference. “We will be delighted to use the pathway, but not if there’s motorized vehicles,” she said. “It’s just too dangerous for us. I don’t begrudge them for doing their sport, but I shouldn’t have to suck it up.”
