Shovels in the ground for new school KRISTY WALLACE
SEASON IN FULL SWING

The new North Grenville District High School is becoming a reality. The shovels are officially in the ground for the new school that is expected to be finished by September 2012. “The community has been looking for a new school for well over a decade,” said Jeremy Hobbs, chief information and facilities officer for the Upper Canada District School Board. “It’ll be a full service high school that’s designed to serve every student - with every interest and from every walk of life - within the community.” At a groundbreaking ceremony held on Sept. 24, Friday afternoon in Kemptville at the new site, teachers, board members and politicians came together to celebrate the occasion. “I want to say how fortunate I am to have played a part in the process of ensuring that the young people of our community
have the finest learning facilities to prepare them for their future,” said North Grenville Mayor Bill Gooch. The current North Grenville District High School sits on Prescott Street in Kemptville. With a series of additions on it and a number of stairwells, Hobbs said the building is in rough shape and that the cost to bring it up to standard would cost more than to build the new school. The total cost to build the new school is $17.36 million – which is a result from recent funding from the Ministry of Education. “We’ve had to go through the process to make a case for this high school,” Hobbs said. “The community would have wanted it sooner but the money became available K.

Incumbent North Grenville Mayor Bill Gooch was recently offended when he received an automated call from Senator Bob Runciman who was voicing his support for mayoral candidate David Gordon. Gooch said there shouldn’t be political involvement from someone at such a high level, as a senator involved in municipal politics. Gordon sees the situation as having a job reference. While the candidates have their own opinion on what’s right or wrong, the situation raises questions of ethics, how often it happens and whether or not it can sway a voter. François-Pierre Gingras, a political science professor from the University of Ottawa, said high-level gov-
ernment endorsement on municipal matters doesn’t really raise any ethical questions. “I don’t see any major problems except people should remain civil and careful because the public good is ultimately what the public figures should be thinking about first,” said Gingras. He added that it’s not surprising that someone who’s involved in federal or provincial politics is involved at the municipal level since most of the time, politicians get their start in municipal politics. “You wouldn’t blame someone to remain interested in municipal politics if he or she is a member of the legislative assembly or parliament,” said Gingras. “And the same would apply to a senator.” However, he said it’s im-

tered to vote in Brockville, said voice messages endorsing candidates could sway some voters – but could be a problem for others. “An automated message is the most annoying way to sway someone, and there are people who can’t be swayed,” said Heath. “Or, some might be curious. People like to know the inside story, and what’s the juice.” Gingras said he’s not sure how often high-level politicians get involved in municipal affairs. But he pointed out that in 1960, a Montreal mayor was also appointed to the senate seat while serving as mayor. “Usually senators have good connections in communities,” said Gingras. “So it’s not surprising that - overtly or not - they would still remain active in the local level.”

portant for politicians at all levels to be careful in the way they get involved in politics. They have to work together often, he said, sharing the common goal of working for the public good. Some members of the community have their own opinions on a high-level official picking sides in a municipal election. Mervyn Berridge Sills who owns a small bookstore on Prescott Street in Kemptville -said as a voter, he sees the whole situation as pure politics that wouldn’t impact who he votes for in the end. “David Gordon, [who’s involved in the Conservative Party], can look to support from his political affiliates. That’s the nature of politics,” he said. “But to decry it is also politics.” Alex Heath, who’s regis-

Don Tuttle describes himself as a professional country singer, but there a definite rock tilt in his original songs. roller - together the depth of their experience is combined,” says Heroux, who hosts the band for rehearsals at his recording studio. Relaxing in his study at his home in Merrickville, Tuttle leans back, one foot tucked under him, cradling a cup of tea in both hands. He talks about his music and the career he wants to build with that odd mixture of passionate focus, confidence and humility that make him something of an enigma.
Get ready for the Wall of Fame On Thursday, Oct. 28, the municipality will be hosting the inaugural induction ceremony for North Grenville’s Sport’s Wall of Fame. This year’s 18 inductees will be Olympic athletes, a record-holding team and many sports community builders. Family and friends will gather for the ceremony that begins at

“I’m going to go all the way, I think it’s my time right now,” he says in his soft melodic speaking voice. He already has a single under his belt, released in 2005, “If You Don’t Feel Like Talking” debuted on radio stations across Canada. He admits he works hard on his music, and says that now he is very focused on
building a solid career. He performs extensively in the area and is no stranger to Broadways in Kemptville. “It’s a big part of my life and I work on it as much as I can. It’s different now than when I was in my 20’s. Back then, I thought I was better than I was, now I keep asking myself, am I good enough to get out there?” Just hitting his midthirties, he’s confident in his ability as a singer/songwriter and of being in the right place at the right time. He moved to Merrickville more by accident than design – it was the house that drew him and his girlfriend into the village, otherwise they might have settled in any other community in South Eastern Ontario. “My goal this year is to seal a record deal with the band. I’ve never focused on that before – I’ve always wanted to but I’ve never planned it like I am now,” he says. To get a taste of Tuttle in performance, check him out at D’Arcy McGee’s in Orleans on Sept. 28, or at Players, Smiths Falls on Oct. 8, and on Oct. 23 with his band at the Marlborough in North Gower.

Not a huge man, his presence is nonetheless impressively large, but it’s his voice that is impossible to ignore. A mellow version of Elvis Presley is possibly the most direct way to describe Don Tuttle’s singing voice. Originally from Picton, Ontario, Tuttle is a newcomer to Merrickville but already delights audiences in Kemptville, North Gower, Winchester, Smiths Falls, Erinsville and Orleans. Though he’d like nothing better than to perform his own original material – and he is prolific – he often has to do covers. “I’d prefer to do my own songs but the public wants to hear what they know, so I end up doing a lot of covers and adding in an original here and there,” he says. Over time he hopes his original songs will start to become familiar and catch on. His earliest forays into the world of performance were with songs like “The Dance” by Garth Brooks, “That’s All Right Mama” by Elvis and Mickey Gilley’s, “The Girls All Get Prettier At Closing Time”. In the meantime he has written about 50
original songs. “His songs are heartfelt and thoughtful, he wears his heart on his sleeve,” says Marc Ouelette a 20 year veteran blues musician and currently Tuttle’s bass player. Tuttle describes himself as a professional country singer, but admits his influences are decidedly rock. Growing up with Metallica, Def Leppard, Garth Brooks and Elvis, it’s not surprising that his music has a subtle rock sound to it. His band members also contribute something of an eclectic mix to his country styling. “I bring the experience that comes from progressive rock,” says drummer Gary Roberts, while Ouellette, an award winning saxophone player and guitarist brings a vast repertoire of jazz and blues to the bass. Together, the three musicians create a very original sound. “When they play together they’re very well tuned, very in touch with each other. There’s never a moment when they are critical of one another but they are critical on the music,” says Ken Heroux, a local amateur recording engineer. “Marc has a heavy blues background and Gary’s a rock ‘n’

Job reference or dirty politics?
Listen to the Whispers
Recently a story came out about Senator Bob Runciman openly supporting mayoral candidate David Gordon in this year’s municipal elections. Feeling shocked and angry, incumbent mayoral candidate Bill Gooch spoke out against this – saying it was improper, offensive and dirty politics that someone from a high level of government would get involved in municipal politics. Mayoral candidate David Gordon referred to it as a job reference that he’s quite proud of. Thank God for small-town politics. It’s a journalist’s – and voter’s – dream when those who are running can be so candid. While most people will automatically jump to either the side of Gooch or Gordon, voters need to take a step back and analyze the situation. First, it’s important to find out if there was any ethical wrong-doing when Runciman endorsed Gordon. An expert at the University of Ottawa – who has dedicated his life to analyzing the world of politics – says no, Runciman was not unethical when showing his support. Nor was it illegal. Politicians at any level of government will always be interested in local politics because that’s where most of them got their start. But he also stresses a good point. Ultimately what politicians want – or at least, should want – is what is best for the greater good of the community. It’s likely that people wouldn’t be affected at all and our politicians would work together no matter who ends up winning. But it’s nice to be reassured that any fallouts wouldn’t result in the public paying for it. Sure, politics is dirty. But politics is also about diplomacy and - should be – serving the public in the best way possible. Whether the voter looks down on Gordon’s campaign approach, or finds Gooch’s reaction equally unsettling, think of yourself in this year’s municipal election when you go to the polls. How does this one example of the way our candidates conduct themselves affect you - if at all? In the end, this whole semi-debacle is a blessing in disguise. With less than half of the voters coming out on municipal election day, this certainly gets people involved and out to the polls. And isn’t that the whole point of a democracy?

Fall season tops political intrigue Although the average Ontario citizen is currently being bombarded with all-candidates meetings, debates, policy contradictions, political tug of war and silly posturing, he is still fortunate enough to enjoy the prospect of a plentiful fall. A drive from Winchester all the way west to Perth shows off a countryside already beginning to change colour. It is also a reminder of how fortunate we are. On the weekend I did just that. Driving along the back roads from Inkerman, south to Dundela for some apples fresh from the orchard, west to Spencerville and then north-west through Merrickville, Smiths Falls and finally Perth I found that trying to invoke passion for what is currently front page news such as the now closed gun registry debate, and all issues surrounding the upcoming municipal elections was next to impossible. The ripe cornfields on either side of the road were testimony to a good
JOSEPH MORIN A Short Note season. Cows populated the landscape, blissfully unaware of the all the fuss going on around them. There were many of those little campaign signs everywhere, each suggesting that the name on the sign had the ultimate solution. Kilometre after kilometre the landscape rolled by apparently touched only by nature and the hard work of generations of farmers. Passing over each country culvert was a reminder of the work people had done to keep their infrastructure up to standard. Hats off to all those who had a hand in building all those straight roads. Thanks to those who continue to maintain them through our often trying weather conditions. Even though they are not like the vast and complicated infrastructure we travel on in the city, it is ours to enjoy.

is what all of the politics are about. People with varying opinions are offering alternatives on how to deliver what we value most. It costs something to view all that greenery, cows in the field and breath the fresh air. The bottom line is learning how to enjoy all that sunshine and scenery and despite all the different agendas out there, sticking to yours. Along that drive I crossed paths with all kinds of people who, like me, were out and about enjoying the weather and themselves. In Kempville the folks at this year’s Forest Fair were treated to an afternoon of great music, fun and food. A few steps away in the North Grenville Municipal Centre, the North Grenville Chamber’s Home show was in full swing. Passing through Merrickville was, as usual an interesting experience. We are extremely fortunate in this part of the world. It is the obligation of all of us, politician and citizen to leave this world a better place.

but we have to remember growth is also cause for planning and development, and they do pay those costs.” Brown added that senior government grants and subsidies encourage the municipality to proceed with projects even though they might not have all the money at that point in time. For example, he said it was better to pay 1/3 of the cost of the new library and have long-term debt than to by-pass it and
pay the full cost in a few years. Brown said Coun. Tim Sutton also brought to his attention the fact that the North Grenville Municipal Centre debt of $10 million needs to be clarified. Brown said that amount is an obligation – meaning it’s a lease they pay for the next 30 years. That, in addition to interest, isn’t part of the municipal debt. See DEBT page 17

Debt is more than confusing numbers and puzzling policies – it’s a hot button issue of this year’s municipal election. The North Grenville council recently met to clarify some debt related issues. “Over the past several months, there have been comments . . . about the municipality’s debt,” said Chief Adminiatrative Officer Andy Brown in a debt analysis he presented to Committee of the Whole on Sept. 20. “Unfortunately, some of the comments were incorrect and/or misleading.” According to the Municipality of North Grenville, the total municipal debt is $10,393,014.10 – less than what has been reported previously. Mayor Bill Gooch said part of the confusion lies in a policy made by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing which dictates the way municipalities operate including debt. “We report municipal debt different than with our households,” said Gooch. “The municipal way of accounting for debt doesn’t include the interest.” He added that those who are questioning the debt are “quite correct” but it’s not the way municipalities account for debt. “If you add the interest we’re paying
over the years, then our total obligation to pay is higher than the $10 million we’re talking about,” said Gooch. “But when we’re answering questions about our debt, we answer in line with policies given by Municipal Affairs and Housing. That’s why there’s a difference.” Andrea Kelly of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing said that under a Municipal Act Regulation, a municipality should not commit more than 25 per cent of total own purpose revenue to service debt and other long term obligations without obtaining prior Ontario Municipal Board approval. “This is called the Annual Repayment Limit,” said Kelly. “Annually, through Financial Information Returns, municipalities submit data on their long-term liabilities and debt charges – [which are] interest and principal - to the province.” She added that this information is the basis for the Annual Repayment Limit. Municipal Financial Information Returns are available to the public at: http:// oraweb.mah.gov.on.ca/fir/welcome.htm Brown also said it’s easier for municipalities that are growing to pay off their debt. “The question is, are we growing? Yes, we are,” said Brown. “Ultimately, it’s not the municipality paying, it’s the developer paying charges. Often we’ll have to incur long-term costs

Community grant deadline fast approaching KRISTY WALLACE kristy.wallace@metroland.com
Kemptville’s youth have a passion for sports and recreation. That’s why in 2008, Stacey Tenbult and the Kemptville Youth Centre applied for a community grant offered by the municipality of North Grenville. They received $650 for new exercise equipment. “Keeping our youth healthy and enjoying active activities is one of our program goals and we feel this is an opportunity some may not have had without funding,” said Tenbult, executive director of the centre. Every year since 2008, the municipality has given a total of $8,000 a year to organizations in need. They give these grants in both the fall and winter, and it’s the time of year again where organizations in North Grenville can apply for a community grant for fall 2010. The deadline is Oct. 8 at noon. Andy Brown, chief administrative officer for North Grenville, said community grants are reserved for non-profit organizations in the areas that need help funding special projects or events. “We can assist the funding to help them achieve their goals and achieve our own as outlined in the program requirements,” said Brown. Some of the requirements for an organization that would like to receive a community grant are: it must be non-profit based in North Grenville and have cultural, social, humanitarian, environmental, educational or recreational significance. “They cannot be used for day-to-day operations,” said Brown. “And there’s an expectation that the organization provides matching funds.” The organization usually has to show the municipality that it has some active fundraising efforts. While the grant program has a maximum of $1,000 to be given to a group, Tenbult said the $650 the youth centre received helped immensely. “The North Grenville Community

Grants Program allows us to fill in gaps that we cannot provide in our own budget, but feel it would be beneficial to our programming,” said Tenbult. “Thanks to this program we were able to increase what we offer in terms of sports programming and offer opportunities for yoga.” Tenbult added some advice for any organization looking to apply for a community grant. “If you have a great idea that needs funding that fits into the community grants requirements, apply,” said Tenbuilt. “It is worthwhile and it is a great way to receive funding to assist a project to
thrive.” Brown also said that anyone who has questions can contact the municipality.
“We encourage organizations to get the applications in, get them in on time,” said Brown.

he still had a big meal to cook for the traditional opening day lunch. I decided to go to the barn first. Halfway to the barn I realized I had forgotten my gloves back at the house. Oh, well. The mud at the entrance to the barn was more like quicksand after the rain. I stepped in a soft spot and the sludge promptly sucked my rubber boot right off of my foot. I stood on one leg and put my hand out to the side to stop from falling into the muck. I grabbed the gate right where a healthy crop of stinging nettle was growing. The shock made me drop my foot into the mud. I picked myself up and hopped on one foot over to the water trough, where I scrubbed the nettles out of my now-throbbing hand. I picked up a nearby rag and wiped the mud off my foot before stuffing it back in my boot. The sheepdog whined at me. My strange behaviour was probably making her nervous. I continued on to feed the cats and the turkeys. On my way to feed the rams (who are now in isolation awaiting winter mat-
ing season), the bull started to approach. I waved my pitchfork at him. He gave me a sidelong look and then backed away. I hurried into the lambing room before he could set me up for a charge. After feeding and watering all the animals, I returned to the house to clean myself up. Next, I headed to the kitchen to put a dent in the mess. Just then, the hunters returned. They put two measly geese on the porch and headed into the house. As they had already been awake for more than six hours, they were just about ready for beer, wine and cigars. It was about 11 a.m. The Farmer started up the bbq and prepared to cook their feast. I was beginning to feel a little out of place. Testosterone hung thick in the air like a cloud of cigar smoke. I decided to leave the boys to their manly chatter, and grabbed my car keys. Kissing the Farmer on the cheek on my way out the door, I announced I was going to do some hunting of my own. At the shopping mall.

WARD 20 OSGOODE Osgoode Ward is comprised of residents solely from the former Osgoode Townships and has been served by Coun. Doug Thompson since amalgamation in 2000. The ward is made up of the villages of Greely, Osgoode, Metcalfe, Edwards, Kenmore, Vernon and parts of Manotick. After the 2006 election, the ward expanded to add the communities of Ficko, Limebank, and Johnston Corners. Since amalgamation, Thompson has received 56 per cent of the vote in 2000, ran unopposed in 2003, and earned over 85 per cent of the vote in 2006.

WARD 21 RIDEAU-GOULBOURN The Rideau-Goulbourn Ward was created at the time of the 2006 municipal election, joining the former Rideau Ward with most of the former Goulbourn Ward while also adding a section of rural Nepean to the mix. The ward, covers territory all outside the urban boundary of the city of Ottawa, is geographically large, covering a dozen or so established villages and communities. These range in size from the villages of Richmond and Manotick to communities like North Gower, Kars and Munster to smaller hamlets such as Ashton, Burritt’s Rapids, Carleton Golf and Yacht Club, Fairmile, Heron Lake Estates, Country Club Village and Fallowfield. The village of Richmond is near the geographic centre of the ward. It takes in several country estate lot and residential subdivisions that are just outside the limits of urban-serviced Stittsville. The ward contains a mix of village, hamlet and rural living. Agriculture activity is prominent in much of Rideau-Goulbourn while the the

main villages of Richmond and Manotick are both experiencing growth pressures, particularly with major developments proposed by Mattamy Homes for Richmond and Minto Developments for Manotick. Both have been contentious issues as village residents worry that major growth will see them lose the small town feel and friendly, rural atmosphere which currently prevails in the communities. Issues such as rural drainage and road maintenance continue to be major concerns for many ward residents. Glenn Brooks is being challenged by four others. One is Scott Moffatt of North Gower who as a rookie candidate in the 2006 municipal election made an unexpectedly strong showing against the veteran Brooks. The other candidates are Bruce Webster, a former president of the Richmond Village Association and the Rural Council of Ottawa; Bruce Chrustie, a rural resident in the Heron Lake Estates area; and Iain McCallum, a Richmond resident who also ran in the 2006 election.

Sports Kemptville 73’s come off road trip to take a win at home BRIAN WILSON Special to the advance
Solid goaltending softened the blow as the 73’s lost to the Raiders. On Wednesday, Sept. 22, the 73’s traveled to the Nepean Sportsplex to tackle the Raiders once again. Hoping to come out with a better result this week, Kemptville scored the only goal of the first period. Alex Brenton notched his fourth goal of the season on the power play. The Raiders came out on fire in the second and scored three unanswered goals to take a 3-1 lead after two. The third period was played evenly with Nepean adding an empty net goal with less than 30 seconds left. 73’s goaltender, Ben Curley was named the game’s second star, facing a total of 46 shots during the game. On Friday, Sept. 24, Kemptville was on the road again. This time, they traveled to the Brockville Memorial Centre to
tackle the Braves for the second time in two weeks. Brockville jumped out to a 1 – 0 lead just three and a half minutes into the game. That turned out to be the only goal of the period. In the second, Brockville tallied twice and Kemptville was only able to score once. For the second time in two days the 73’s found themselves down 3-1 at the end of two periods. This time the third period was a little different. The 73’s scored twice but the Braves added one more of their own to take the game by a score of 4 – 3. Scoring for Kemptville were Pat Cameron and Ethan Allard both with their first goals of the season and Alex Brenton scored his fifth of the year as well as adding two assists. Brenton was also named the game’s second star with the three point contribution. Again Ben Curley was solid in the net as he was peppered with 47
shots. Head Coach Pat Malloy said “The last games against teams that the league views as upper crust (Brockville and Nepean) have proved that playing within the constraints of the system will create a more competitive style of play.” Malloy also stated that this team has a group of highly skilled younger players and a very good core of veterans. This will bode well for this season and seasons to come. On Sunday, Sept. 26, the 73’s
returned home to the North Grenville Municipal Centre to take on the Gloucester Rangers for the first time this year. Kemptville took a 1 – 0 lead to the dressing room at the first intermission on a goal by Josh Pitt, his second of the year. The second period was dominated by the 73’s as they scored three times with goals by Nick Duhn, Brandon Lesway and Michael Rowbotham. In the third, Gloucester made a game of it by scoring three
straight goals to turn it into a one goal game. Kemptville hung on for the victory by a score of 4 – 3. 73’s goaltender Morgan Hudson faced 39 shots during the game. Brandon Lesway and Mark Hough were named first and third stars respectively. The 73’s next home game is Friday, Oct. 1 against the Ottawa Junior Senators. Game time is 7:30 p.m.. Come out and catch the excitement and some great hockey.

Kemptville Fire Department gets ready for Fire Prevention Week joe.morin@metroland.com
Fire Prevention Week runs from Oct. 3 to 9 this year. The Kemptville Fire Department is promoting
the week with a message about smoke alarms. Kemptville Fire Chief Tim Bond wanted to remind residents to have a quick look at their smoke alarms and check that their batteries are still
good. And, that the alarms themselves are in good working condition and placed in the correct location. “Too many people are complacent about fire safety,” said Bond, who
If you have a story to share, contact Kristy Wallace kristy.wallace@metroland.com (613) 258-3451 ext. 204
has seen more than his share of tragedies in the community because of a lack of smoke alarms. “People need to remember there is a one in 10 chance of having a fire in their home. With all of the plastic and synthetic materials we put in our homes today, fire burns hotter and faster than ever before. You may have just seconds to get everyone out of your home safely,” he said. Those extra seconds are all you may have
in the case of a fire and they come from having a smoke alarm. Having a working smoke alarm on every floor of a home is no longer an option. The province passed a law stating that there had to be a smoke alarm on each floor of a home and a smoke alarm located outside of each sleeping area. Throughout Ontario and even in North Grenville it is not unusual for firefighters to respond to a fire where smoke alarms were not installed or were not working properly. The theme of this year’s Fire Prevention Week is “Smoke Alarms: A Sound You Can Live With.” The Kemptville Fire Department will be holding a number of special events throughout that week to raise public awareness about the impor-
tance of working smoking fire alarms. On Oct. 6 from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. the Kemptville Fire Department will be inviting the public to drop by for a visit during their day long open house. At 10 a.m. they will be presenting a seminar called “Older Wiser.” The presentation features a brief video as well as information on smoke alarms, carbon dioxide detectors and fire extinguishers. The presentation is designed for adults ages 55 and older. On the same day but later in the evening at 6:30 p.m. and running to 8:30 p.m. the fire department will be featuring a live fire demonstration highlighting the need for smoke alarms in the home. As always, everyone’s favourite fire dog Sparky will be on hand for pictures.

The school board also has a goal to have a 90 per cent graduation rate at the new high school – which means focusing not just on university or college-bound students. “It will be there to challenge kids and serve them at all levels of interest to get them across the line,� said Hobbs. “If we focus on one group of kids, we’ll never hit that goal. But if you provide pathways for all, you can hit that 90 per cent graduation rate.� The new school, which can
serve more than 700 students, will be equipped with a courtyard, brand new automotive and woodworking shops, high-speed wireless and wired networks, a library and a double gym. Residents can expect a few things in the upcoming months, said Hobbs. Neighbours of the new school will be on Concession Road close to South Branch Elementary. They have been in discussions with the school board and the construction company. “I haven’t met a person who’s unenthusiastic about the new school,� said Hobbs.
“Some neighbours expressed some concerns about privacy once the school goes in, but we’re committed to being good neighbours.� He added that throughout the next month or so, people will start to see the foundation be put in place and construction. It will start back up again in March to save costs. “There will be very rapid development after that,� said Hobbs. Upper Canada District School Board Trustee Joan Hodge was also on site Sept. 24. She said she was pleased that
work on the school has finally begun after board and municipal officials lobbied for years to make the school a reality. “It’s been a long road but we’re finally here,� said Hodge. “We’ve worked hard to ensure that our students will have a quality building in which to learn.� She went on to say how the school will impact the community. “It makes me proud to know that the school which will be erected on this site will be the pride of the community for years to come,� she said.

Juice Jam, the popular and long running interactive musical event for children is ready to kick off its 9th year on Friday, Oct. 2. Juice Jam features music and fun activities for children. Kerry Badgley and his wife Sue have been hosting Juice Jam from its begin-
nings in 2001. The event is held on the first Saturday of every month at the South Gower Branch of the North Grenville Public Library. Juice Jam seems to have the kind of structure that keeps it fresh and appealing to the pre-school set. “We just love doing it,” said Badgley. “The kids have a ball.” Part of the secret to keeping the children’s library pro-

The Marvels of Cinnamon DON MERCER For as long as I can remember, cinnamon has been my favourite spice. Cinnamon buns just out of the oven fill the house with what has to be one of the most pleasant aromas imaginable. Even “good old” cinnamon toast is a perennial favourite in many homes, including ours. Each autumn when
our kids were small, we would make a trip to the apple orchard after school on a Friday afternoon, and I would make a big batch of apple sauce Saturday morning. Of course, cinnamon was an essential ingredient. Then we would all sit down and have a big bowl of warm apple sauce. Some of the apple sauce was put in jars and frozen for use through

the winter, and there was always a big bowl in the fridge to eat that weekend. One year is particularly memorable for me. That was the year of the “mutiny”. Forgetting that my wife and kids do not share my appreciation of cinnamon, I apparently added a bit too much. Admittedly, the apple sauce did have a flavour intensity rivalling that of cinnamon heart candies. At the time, I didn’t think it was really all that bad. However, it obviously made an impression on the rest of the family, since I still get teased about it 20 years later whenever the topic of homemade apple sauce comes up. This became “Dad’s Batch” and another
trip was made to the orchard the following week for a second bushel of apples to make a less flavourful batch of apple sauce. Cinnamon comes from the bark of a species of evergreen laurel tree that is native to Sri Lanka. It is not a particularly speciallooking tree. Once peeled from the tree, the bark can either be ground into a powder or rolled into cinnamon sticks. It is one of the oldest spices in the world. There are references to its usage appearing in ancient Chinese herbal texts from almost 5,000 years ago. In addition to its appeal as a popular spice, cinnamon has a number of other benefits. Scientific studies have shown that cinna-
mon can help reduce the growth of microorganisms in various food products and juice products such as apple cider. This being the case, there was certainly not much danger of microbial growth in the infamous batch of apple sauce I made. However, my excuse about using the cinnamon as a preservative didn’t quite cut it with the rest of the family. Cinnamon-flavoured toothpaste is attributed with having antiseptic properties to kill bacteria which can promote tooth decay and gum disease. A routine search of the Internet for the health benefits of cinnamon gave numerous “hits”, with a few surprising results. Some articles

claimed that cinnamon is effective at reducing blood sugar levels, curing toothaches and migraines, and even lowering cholesterol. It has been reported that simply sniffing cinnamon can enhance memory and cognitive functions. One study indicated that cinnamon could aid in the relief of arthritic pain. This was accomplished by taking half a teaspoon of powdered cinnamon mixed with a tablespoon of honey the first thing each morning for a week or so. Cinnamon also has the apparent ability to act as an anti-clotting agent in the bloodstream, and can provide fibre, iron, and calcium in the diet. However, don’t be too quick to jump on the cinnamon band-wagon. There are a few possible negative effects that some people may experience if they are allergic to cinnamon powder. Cinnamon oil especially should be used with great care. It may cause redness to develop if it contacts the skin, or it may even cause burning of the skin. There are also potentially serious health problems that may result if it is taken internally, so caution is advised. From a personal perspective, I enjoy the simpler things about cinnamon - its warm aroma, its appealing flavour, and the associated memories. However, it is comforting to know that something you enjoy so much may actually be good for you. Don Mercer is an associate professor of food science, Kemptville Campus University of Guelph.

gest you should have enough supplies in your emergency kit to last you the first three days of an emergency? In certain types of emergencies (e.g. chemical emergency) you may be ordered to “shelter-in-place.” This means staying where you are making yourself as safe as possible until the emergency is over or you are told to evacuate. If you are told to “shelter-in-place”: close all windows and doors, turn off all fans, heating and air conditioning systems, ensure your emergency kit is fully stocked and bring it with you if you are ordered to evacuate, listen to your crank or battery operated radio for further instructions.

Debt issues addressed at council
From COUNCIL page 5 He said the reason the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing doesn’t count these as part of the municipal debt is because they are “basic accounting
principles.” Brown said the municipality has already paid off $3.8 million of that obligation. Finally, Gooch said there is a capital reserve fund in place in case a catastroph-
ic problem happens with a building. If an event doesn’t happen, Gooch said that reserve funds will pay for the end balloon payment. “As we get older though, a lot of things
