Ballot Battle: Divided council scraps referendum idea on governance system
By Bill Hutchins Reporter
A touching experience Pg. 17
Kingston Heritage – There won’t be a question on the ballot in this fall’s civic elections in Kingston. By a narrow 7-6 vote, city councillors rejected a non-binding referendum that would have asked voters whether they favour elections at-large instead of the current system of elections by district. “This is an issue that just doesn’t seem to go away,” observed Coun. Bryan Paterson, who spoke in favour of the referendum question in order to settle the debate once and for all. But most councillors say voters are already used to a political culture sup-
ported by district elections, and previous councils have endorsed this style of governance. No need to seek voter input, they said. Referendum critics also say attempts to frame this debate as an important prodemocracy initiative are wrong. “This isn’t about democratics. It’s about politics. It’s been decided,” said Coun. Rick Downes, a referendum opponent. Coun. Downes pointed to past attempts to hold referendum questions - on topics ranging from the downtown sports and entertainment centre to a casino - that were also rejected. He says the ugly and precedent-setting tone of those debates made it clear to him that the city should avoid a referendum this time as well.
The at-large vs. district election debate resurfaced last month after a 550-name petition supported putting a question on the ballot. Coun. Kevin George brought forward a motion at the March 18 council meeting that called for a plebiscite, along with the proposed wording of the question drafted by the clerk and solicitor. It read: “Are you in favour of electing all Kingston Municipal Councillors by general city-wide vote instead of the existing district vote? Yes or No.” Coun. George later suggested some of his colleagues were simply afraid to allow voters to answer the question. “Some councillors get so entrenched in their own district they don’t give a crap about the rest of the city.”
But referendum opponents believe the current system of electing councillors in 12 districts, plus a mayor at large, is a much better form of democratic representation than the proposed method of choosing the top 12 candidates with the highest votes in the city-wide election. “We are not California,” declared Coun. Jim Neill, referring to the American state’s frequent propositions that govern tax dollars and other policies. Coun. Jeff Scott voiced concern that rural constituents could lose their guaranteed representative if the city moves to elections at-large and didn’t want a referendum to open the door to that possibilContinued on page 11

Red light cameras coming to a Kingston intersection near you Kingston Heritage – It’s full speed ahead for red light cameras in Kingston. After years of indecision, city council has launched a two-year set-up process to begin installing automated cameras at selected intersections. But it will be up to the next council to pay for them. “I think it’s long overdue,” said Coun. Kevin George. Many councillors agree the combination of poor driving behaviour and serious accidents is sufficient justification to install cameras to catch motorists who breeze through intersections after the traffic lights have turned red. “I just think this is something to try,” agreed Coun. Dorothy Hector. Councillors voted 10-3 at their March 18 meeting to endorse a business case study which indicated that red light cameras could reduce T-Bone accidents at local intersections by 25 per cent. The same study also says it could lead to a 15 per cent rise in rear-end collisions as more drivers brake at amber lights to avoid a potential ticket. Red light cameras, which are used in a handful of Ontario municipalities, record the licence plate of an offender and send a $325 ticket in the mail to the vehicle’s registered owner. There is no loss in demerit points under this police-free system.

intersection with no guarantee the program can pay for itself. The consultant says installing the cameras in Kingston could actually generate fine revenues up to $4.8 million per year, but conservative estimates suggest the city would only collect 20 per cent of those revenues due to various factors such as improved driving behaviour, out-of-province licence plates, dirty licence plates or poor weather conditions that obscure the camera’s picture.

officials officially frown upon but many motorists rely on. Now that red light cameras are approved, the next step will be for council to hire a company to provide the camera and data collection equipment, and to finalize the list of 10 accident-prone intersections for 24-7 monitoring. There are 10 preferred locations that have already been identified: Division & Johnson Streets, Queen & Montreal Streets, Division & John Counter Blvd., Perth

Individual drivers, company or commercial vehicles and even some city-owned vehicles, like transit buses, will all be subject to fines. Fire trucks, police cruisers, ambulances and other emergency vehicles responding to calls would be exempt. The business case estimates the cost to install and operate cameras at 10 intersections is $520,000 a year. But with estimated fine revenues at $970,000 the program is expected to generate a profit of about $450,000 annually. The start-up costs will be included in the 2015 and 2016 municipal budgets, and the red light cameras are set to be activated in 2017. Some councillors noted that while the program could be viewed as a “cash grab” by “Big Brother,” they say improving road safety is the driving factor. Some also worried that fine revenues could eventually drop as motorists become more careful at intersections leaving taxpayers stuck with a costly program. But council was told the program can be reviewed, or scrapped, after five years. “I don’t think people will like it,” said Coun. Lisa Osanic, one of the few to vote against the program. Council did attach one condition to the camera cops program. Intersections identified for cameras must also be equipped with pedestrian crossing countdown devices to help motorists better gauge when a green light may be about to change – a practice city

Kingston Heritage – Turning on the camera’s ‘record’ button inside Kingston City Hall won’t be as easy as it used to be. The city is bringing in a new Film Policy to govern the use of its stately buildings as the backdrop for movies, commercials and other for-profit ventures. “The proposed Film Policy not only sets a protocol for filming in the interior of city-owned buildings, but all city properties,” according to a report by solicitor Hal Linscott. The administrative policies committee discussed the policy March 19 before sending a final recommendation to council. The need for a policy outlining what type of filming is acceptable, and what isn’t, stems from a March 2012 council motion. It was in response to a local television commercial that was made inside Memorial Hall. Some councillors were annoyed a commercial was filmed within the room’s stained glass windows and other markers honouring fallen soldiers from the First World War. “It is a war memorial,” said Coun. Bill Glover during the original debate. The 30-second commercial, done for a Kingston insurance broker, depicted a mock courtroom scene with company representatives portraying lawyers dressed in hockey jerseys and a judge with gavel. CKWS Television officials later said the mayor’s office was aware of the commercial shoot. “I feel very, very strongly on the matter of Memorial Hall,” complained Coun. Glover after the commercial began airing. “I have difficulty with people who don’t understand the significance of the room.” Coun. Jeff Scott says ‘Memorial’ municipal spaces are routinely used for commercial events. “Our own Memorial Centre is used for hockey and roller derby.” Memorial Hall is not a “mausoleum,” he added. The controversy brought into focus the city’s lack of a clear policy governing the commercial use of its buildings for television, film and advertising productions. If approved by council, the new policy will require companies to apply for a per-
ITALY
mit outlining a description of the activity and any impact/alterations to civic property, allow city officials to review their film and advertising scripts, if requested, plus have up to $5 million in liability insurance. It will then be up to senior staff to decide if a film permit will be granted. In addition, any commercial shoots inside City Hall or the Frontenac County Court House will require the express approval of the chief administrator. Mayor Mark Gerretsen had not yet seen the new rules, but suggested they are needed. “If you’re using city property to make money you should go through the necessary steps. It’s no different than if anyone wants to sell hot dogs on a city street.” But there are some notable exceptions where non-commercial filming will still be allowed without restrictions or permits: -any activity inside the Grand Theatre and Rogers K-Rock Centre, -current affairs, newscasts and nonprofit ads, -videography related to weddings, sports teams, tourism, family photos and academic projects. City officials say the policy is also tailored to accommodate Hollywood-style productions. Kingston landmarks have already been used as a backdrop for a handful of feature films and television shows. Parts of historic Market Square were transformed into ‘Georgia, Russia’ for the filming of a TV episode of Nikita in December 2012. In early April, a film production crew plans to transform Market Square into early 1900s England for a horror movie shoot. Officials stress the policy is not just focused on creating new restrictions. Their aim is also to encourage more film productions around Kingston’s scenic locations, while ensuring better coordination and communication with producers. “There is an opportunity to further develop a welcoming environment to attract new filming projects,” said Linscott’s report. The policy would assign a Corporate Affairs staff person to act as a Film Liaison between municipal departments and producers during complex movie shoots on city property.

In Our Opinion
Ready for spring showers?
Long live the modern day self portrait Hollie Pratt-Campbell Ast. Editor
@hollieprattcamp
Heritage Editorial - Lately I’ve seen a lot of people on Facebook posting “no make-up selfies� and tagging their friends to do the same. A quick Google search of the term suggests that the no make-up selfie craze originated in the U.K. as a way of raising awareness of and funds for cancer research. Once a woman dares to post a photo of herself sans makeup, she is supposed to donate money to a designated charity and so forth. It seems some people are upset about the fact that the whole cancer side of the matter is being lost as women have simply become caught up in the excitement of sharing what they “really� look like to the world. My first thought when I heard about this trend was: “I’m normally supposed to be wearing makeup in my selfies?� I don’t think I take a lot of selfies per se (though my Instagram and Twitter friends are free to correct me), but when I do they are probably without makeup at about 50 per cent of the time anyway. I’ve never
really thought too hard about it and I’m certainly not trying to make any kind of statement - I’ve just been documenting my life as it plays out in the way that most people from my generation do. It’s not that I don’t like makeup. I’m a big fan of anything that has the ability to improve my appearance and, like everyone, I definitely look better when I’m wearing it. There was a time in my life when I applied makeup every day, after drying and straightening my hair, which I also don’t do religiously anymore. Steve leaves for work a little after 7 a.m. There’s no way I’m sacrificing a potential extra hour of sleep to go through a full beauty routine before he leaves me in sole custody of our two year old for the rest of the morning. Needless to say, it’s hard to make sure every hair is in place and every eyelash adequately elongated when there’s a toddler crying at your feet because she can’t find her Elmo doll. If I’m clean and presentable-ish, I consider myself good to go. Most workdays, I try to throw on eyeliner, lip gloss and tinted moisturizer. Maybe even mascara if Summer is having a particularly good morning. On weekends? Forget it. I don’t need to impress anyone at Costco, gymnastics or play dates.
As for selfies, I still maintain that there is the potential to look better without makeup in phone selfies than with it in photos other people take. I like how I’m able to see what I’m shooting. I can angle my face in a way I consider flattering and try out different smiles until I catch one that looks genuine. Also, if it wasn’t for selfies, I would hardly have any photos of myself and Summer together. (I’m the designated photog of the family. Steve never thinks to pick up a camera unless I ask him to.) Of course, there will always be haters who claim selfies are vain and self-indulgent and a sign of everything that’s wrong with the world. In some ways, they’re right. But you could say the same thing about makeup. We wear makeup to boost our confidence and improve how we present ourselves to the world. So too do we take photos of ourselves and post them on social media. We’re saying, “This is how I look in my eyes�. It’s really quite a lovely concept that has the ability to empower women and make us feel good about ourselves despite the many forces working against things like body confidence and self-acceptance. Through selfies, we can let our best selves shine – with or without makeup.

Easily distracted while driving? Prepare to pay Heritage Editorial – On March 18, the Ontario government modified and increased the fines for distracted driving. Previously, those caught for distracted driving faced a fine of $155 and now that fine has been upped to a minimum of $280. But this fine is just the tip of the iceberg. Judges can now fine offenders between $300 and $1,000 for distracted driving and penalize them with three demerit points, but the question remains, is that enough? For years police officers dealt with street racing and the deadly ramifications that came along with it. For those that enjoyed street racing, no amount of fine seemed to deter them until it became ridiculously expensive. When legislation changed in 2007 and fines for street racing increased to a maximum of $10,000 with added consequences of impound and license suspension, street racing finally saw a decline. Is that what needs to happen with distracted driving? We all know that it is wrong to text or talk on the phone while driving and yet it is hard to drive down a street without seeing someone doing it. But the distracted driving doesn’t stop at cell phone use. According to the Ministry of Transportation distracted driving includes the use of cell phones, laptops and organizers, but it also includes reading maps, grooming activities, eating or drinking and tending to children and pets. While some of these categories may seem to be taking it a bit too far, we need to be reminded that driving is a serious act. Hundreds of accidents happen every day and the majority of them are caused by distracted driving. It is just as easy to lose control of your vehicle when reaching for your coffee as it is while you are trying to text. Both require a momentary eye shift away from the road and while the text may take longer, the distraction still exists in both acts. The major concern now is how will all of this be enforced? It is easy to catch speeders with a radar gun or drunk drivers during a ride check, but how can police catch those who are texting? Devices are small enough now that they fit in the palm of your hand and are therefore easy to conceal and, while they are far more visible in a car at night, offenders are still difficult to spot. Will this lead to more distracted driving amongst police officers trying to catch offenders? Or perhaps a new device will be invented to detect signals and electronic activity in cars? Whatever happens next, one thing is for sure, as long as people continue to allow these distractions to take place fines will continue to increase and accidents will continue to happen.

City delays turtle fencing request to seek private, government donations By Bill Hutchins Reporter
Kingston Heritage – Conservationists are facing a slow uphill battle to convince Kingston politicians to invest tax dollars to save some endangered turtles along a busy road. Councillors are not yet ready to support a recommendation to spend $61,200 to install protective fencing along Princess Street, between the Ambassador Hotel and the CN rail tracks. The marshland is a well-known turtle breeding area, but it’s also a high road kill risk. A recent study found 40 turtles were killed at this location in 2013. “I believe $61,000 is a small price to pay to protect the remaining six turtle species we have,” local resident Linda Wood told council March 18, the second time the issue has appeared on the political agenda in the past few months. Leslie Wood, of the Dog Lake Cottagers Association, also pleaded with politicians to install special low chain link fencing to prevent turtles from crossing the road in search of nesting grounds. “They outlasted the dinosaurs
but they may not outlast one more generation of man.” Several speakers reminded council that environmental responsibility is one of Kingston’s four pillars of sustainability. While many councillors don’t dispute the road kill risk that turtles face, they are concerned about the optics of spending money on the creatures when there are other competing priorities, like keeping taxes low. “Let’s remember the sustainability of keeping seniors in their homes because of rising property taxes,” said Coun. Brian Reitzel. Coun. Lisa Osanic, who has championed turtle protection at City Hall, calls it the “right thing to do” and says it will have a minimal impact on the budget. “It’s just one site. One time only expense. A very minor expense in our capital budget.” Skeptical councillors didn’t say no to the funding request, but didn’t approve it either. Instead, they want more time to seek out potential private donors and government grants. City officials admit they did not explore other funding sources in the turtle fencing
report. “There could be grant programs that may support this type of initiative,” said Mark Van Buren, director of engineering. Councillors voted 9-4 to defer the $61,200 spending request in a bid to seek local partners or donations to help offset the costs. A compromise amendment also calls on staff to develop a program where the city will match dollar-for-dollar any donation or grant that’s received. The funding issue is expected to return to council June 17. Supporters of the conservation idea say the turtle population is in peril, and safeguarding one nesting area is better than none at all. “Our turtles are in crisis. Please understand this reality,” said Susan Irving of the Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre in Napanee. The original recommendation, supported by a detailed conservation study into Kingston’s turtle mortality rate, called on the city to invest $215,000 to install fencing at two locations: Princess Street train crossing, and Highway 2 near Westbrook. But the idea was scaled back to just
the Princess Street crossing after a frosty response from council last November. The study noted Kingston already has 11 turtle warning signs, but determined they are not effective in safeguarding turtles. Chain link fencing along marsh land, with a lip on top to prevent turtles from climbing over, was identified as the best solu-
There’s
tion. The barriers would be installed three feet above ground and three feet below ground to prevent turtles from climbing or tunneling, but small enough to allow deer, raccoons and other wildlife to cross. The most common species in this area include Blanding’s Turtle, Eastern Musk Turtle and the Spotted Turtle.

Sowing seeds of success: Local farmer honoured with community award By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
Heritage News - Ian Stutt didn’t come from a farming family. He grew up in Montreal and originally moved to Kingston to study global development at Queen’s University. Yet over the past eight years he has made quite the impact on the local farming community, and on March 7 was named Outstanding Young Farmer of the Year by the Frontenac Soil and Crop Improvement Association. The award recognized his leadership in assisting fellow farmers and promoting the local food system, while at the same time balancing a successful business at his own organic vegetable farm, Patchwork Gardens, which he operates yearround with his wife, Megan Joslin, and business partner, Eric Williams. “The main thing [that drew me to farming] was that I could tie a lot of my different interests together in the context of a farm,” Stutt explains. “I was interested in working hard outside with soil and plants and that kind of stuff, but also in community building.” From 2008-2012, Stutt coordinated the NFU’s New Farm Project, which ran programs helping new and established farmers become more sustainable. He has also spoken at a number of events over the years, such as the Eastern Ontario Local Food Conference, which was held in Kingston several months ago. On April 3, he will again be part of a panel at an event hosted by Salt of the Earth Farm entitled “What do you want your local food system to look like?”. “I feel like it’s a two-way thing,” Stutt says of his community work. “I go and I get a lot out of it and hopefully contribute something too. I’m excited to see

what’s happening with local food. By going to these things and I hear people’s success stories and their challenges and can really stay current on where things are at and where things are headed.” He adds, however, that it’s certainly not all good news all the time. “I’m hopeful, but with a big dose of concern that the odds are stacked against us. Everything points against small farms succeeding. Through the New Farm Project I witnessed a number of new farmers start and quickly fold because of the financial pressure. Being able to observe some of that made it increasingly clear how important it is to have the knowledge and skill base but also the access to various supports.” So what does it take to be successful as a farmer? Stutt says that being passionate about the work is a great place to start. You also need the right skill set and personality, as well as the drive to follow through and build something for yourself that’s going to succeed. “When you wake up, you need to be excited to do the work that’s needed that day. And you need to be able to see that it’s not only about producing well, but it’s also being able to market and record keep and adjust. You kind of need all those angles if you’re going to pull it together and succeed, otherwise you’re just going to end up with bins and bins of squash and no market for them and you can’t do that for very long.” Of course, the actual science behind it all matters quite a bit as well. “There are some really wonderful soils in the area, and there’s a really good climate that’s influenced by the lakes,” Stutt explains. “[Through our organic practices at Patchwork Gardens] we’ve done a lot on building soil

Divided council scraps referendum idea Continued from page 1
ity. “I really don’t see this as an issue they’re interested in.” Coun. Dorothy Hector supported a ballot question to give voters a direct say in the how their city is governed, and she dismissed concerns that they may not understand the issue or the question. “They know what they want and they’ll tell us. And I’m not afraid of the answer.” Mayor Mark Gerretsen also voted for a referendum, noting at-large supporters would face an uphill battle convincing voters to move away from the status quo election system. “It’s always harder to convince people of change.” Most agreed the referendum results would only mean something if the voter turnout was high and the ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ outcome was overwhelming. Otherwise, the next council would likely ignore the results.
Those voting against the referendum motion were Councillors Rick Downes, Bill Glover, Rob Hutchison, Jim Neill, Lisa Osanic, Liz Schell and Jeff Scott. Those voting in favour were Mayor Mark Gerretsen and Councillors Sandy Berg, Kevin George, Dorothy Hector, Bryan Paterson, Brian Reitzel. A small group of citizens who have championed the at-large system for a decade left the council meeting dejected, but determined to fight on. “It was a temporary setback. We’ll go to the next level,” said former Kingston council member Joe Hawkins, who declined to say what his group’s next move will be. “Our group won’t let it die.” Even though the referendum issue was quashed, the at-large debate will “definitely” become an election issue, Hawkins predicted.

KFL&A Public Health continues bi-annual fall prevention classes mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Heritage News – For many people, slipping, tripping or falling down isn’t a major issue, but for older adults, falling can be extremely detrimental to their overall health and well-being. In an effort to raise awareness about the risks associated with falls, the Kingston, KFL&A Public Health Group holds a biannual workshop series called ‘Stay on Your Feet’. “The program runs for eight weeks and it is designed to prevent falls and promote overall health in older adults,” explained organizer Debbie O’Grady. “It is based on three program components: we have awareness and education, so-
cialization and physical activity.” The series is free to those that are interested and the program runs in both Kingston and Napanee every spring and fall. The program started in 2005 and has seen great success since its inception. The two-hour sessions focus on education in the first hour, with guest speakers who discuss a variety of topics including physical activity, nutrition and healthy eating, medication use and alcohol awareness, foot care, osteoporosis and environmental awareness. Participants then take a break to socialize and enjoy a snack and then it is time for tai chi. “We do a tai chi class, which seems to be the main draw for the program. We have the Taoist Tai Chi Society come in and teach these classes and we’ve been
working with them for a number of years. Research shows that tai chi improves balance and strength so we have been working with tai chi since the inception of our program.” It is estimated that one in three adults over the age of 65 is likely to fall at least once a year, explained O’Grady. Falls account for 85 per cent of all injuries resulting in hospitalization for older adults too, and in many cases falls can result in bone fractures or injuries, chronic pain, loss of independence, and a decreased quality of life. “This is a pretty substantial issue and it is important to raise awareness,” added O’Grady. “Some of these elderly people will fall and break a bone and then it is downhill from there. They be-
come immobile and they can’t maintain the level of health that they once had and it becomes really detrimental to their health.” Anything that can be done to prevent falls is extremely important to KFL&A Public Health and these workshops are a big part of the process. The main prevention technique is physical activity and for many elderly people this can be extremely difficult. “There is also the socialization aspect that is important to a lot of older adults who may not have that opportunity,” added O’Grady. “They meet new people and we’ve seen multiple friendships form over the years. We see people that will go out for coffee after the session and that is really great to see. R0012612956

The published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!
The program is also great because the participants are getting the tai chi every week and they are really improving their balance and overall health because of that. The program is completely free and it really does help us reduce these risks that older adults face on a daily basis.” While the upcoming program in Kingston is already full, O’Grady encourages those that are interested to look into joining the Napanee program or to think about joining the fall program that will run in mid to late September. Seminars run on Mondays from 10 a.m. to noon and are free to those interested. For more information and to register, call KFL&A Public Health at 613-5491232 or 1-800-267-7875, ext. 1209.

Heritage News – It’s that time of year again, time for budgeting. On March 10, Loyalist Township called for any public feedback on their 2014 operating budget before officially voting to approve it. While there were no public comments, Deputy Mayor Ric Bresee (sitting in for vacationing Mayor Bill Lowry) commented on the efforts made by staff and councilors this year in working towards a final budget. “The staff prepared an excellent budget and there was a lot of work that went into it at all levels of the township and for that I want to thank all of the staff,” said Bresee. “I would also like to give my thanks to Council. Some of the decisions were really difficult and some of the decisions not everyone agreed with, but we got through it and we’ve ended with a good and reasonable budget to move
forward with this year.” With that, Loyalist Township Council approved the 2014 Operating Budget in the amount of $22,355,400 (2013 $20,965,800). The budget was originally presented to council with a proposed tax levy of $11,022,400, but Council felt this was a bit steep. Increases stemmed from a 21 per cent increase in garbage and recycling contracts, an increased cost of contracted police services and a cut, once again, from the Ontario government in terms of annual provincial grants. “Those increased costs and the revenue reduction all contributed to an increased levy requirement,” explained Alida Moffatt, Interim Chief Administrative Office for Loyalist Township. “Council had also agreed to undertake some strategic initiatives and those were considered over and above the basic tax levy requirement and Continued on page 26

Enchanté
Enchanting and fascinating people….and their world
Mark Bergin
Dickens and other classics beckon filmmaker Enchanté - His interest in classics sprouted in early childhood. Born in Manchester, England, Anthony D.P. Mann moved to Canada with his family at the age of two. Still, he was raised on British television in Montreal. Recently, my editor and colleague, Hollie Pratt-Campbell, wrote about Mann and the upcoming release of his Phantom of the Opera. Last year, I’d interviewed Mann for a column, From Liesl to Phantom’s Obsession, about Savannah Kimmerer and her role as Christine Daaé in the classic film. After reading Hollie’s article, I was again intrigued by Mann’s work and decided to dig into his past. And future. Anthony D.P. Mann grew up watching Victorian dramas and shows like Benny Hill. As a kid, he was reading Sherlock Holmes stories. He staged his first plays in elementary school, including, in Grade 5, his first rendition of Phantom of the Opera. His epiphany came with his introduction to the old Universal Studios horror films. Universal produced these celluloid hits from the early 1920s to 1960. They included such cinematic treasures
theatre is the perfect medium.” He liked doing live adaptations of mystery plays. “I was always doing one,” he says. “We were doing Frankenstein live one Sunday afternoon. When the show was over, I was told that Al Waxman had been watching from the studio. He had just finished Death of a Salesman at Stratford. We had a wonderful conversation about his own upbringing and radio. He said that in this business you need to have three things: voice, voice and voice.” Mann says that in theatre and film, it’s about finding your creative voice, what he calls “your storytelling voice.” “I’ve only discovered my voice in the past few years,” he says. “You have to find a way to make the most of what you have. Don’t accept, ‘no.’ Take the initiative. Making a movie is the most wonderful punishment. We have to accept many rejections before we get accepted. We have to be addicted to creative anguish. Finding one’s voice is the only way to succeed.” Everyone has their own style, explains Mann, and you have to devote your life to developing it. “You can have the greatest camera in the world, but if you

don’t know how to create something, you aren’t going to succeed.” Mann left Montreal and moved to Kingston on a whim in 2001. He became involved with Kingston’s Cogeco studios. “Cogeco has always been my second home,” he says. “Scott (Meyers, of Cogeco) has been so supportive. I got to see what it was like to work behind the scenes and work hands-on with equipment. That’s where I really started to learn the art. The folks at Cogeco are real supporters of community. They’re truly community TV.” Besides Phantom, Mann’s taken on productions like Sherlock Holmes, Dracula and Ghostkeepers. He’s got distribution through Hollywood’s Reality Entertainment. He’s become popular on the convention circuit. In other words, he’s already developed a cult following. He sees hope for independent film producers and says the entire film industry is changing with the Hollywood system taking a blow as a grass roots filmmaking revival takes hold. “You’re going to see an a resurgence in an interest in quality,”

as The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923), The Phantom of the Opera (1925), Frankenstein and several sequels, The Wolf Man, Dracula and Creature from the Black Lagoon. The movies featured actors like Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney and Bela Legosi. “Peter Cushing was an early idol,” says Mann. “I was listening to Andrew Lloyd Weber and Roger Whitaker. I few to Germany to see him on one of his final tours.” Why Roger Whitaker? “He’s a performer who is not just singing a song, he’s telling a story. I admire people who are storytellers.” The key to good theatre or film is the ability to tell a story. That’s why Mann has always admired the work of Woody Allen. “He’s a master of the dark thriller,” says Mann. “He works with the most limited means and on a small budget and creates quirky films that are characterdriven.” Mann got involved in the theatre scene and radio in Montreal, especially producing plays. “Radio is theatre of the imagination,” says Mann. “You compensate for lack of budget by learning to tell the best story using the most minimal of tools.

Hundreds of Kingstonians came down to the waterfront last year to celebrate the potential of the space. Now, images from the art that was on display can be seen in a new exhibit at the Steam House Museum. Photo/Hollie Pratt-Campbell. Pump House and Steam Museum on April 3 and will run until May 18. “I am so happy the exhibit is at the Steam House,” added Sheedy. “This venue is so spectacular for a show like this in terms of lighting and sound and atmosphere. We will have full projection screens set up, videos shown, art on the walls and it is so great because it is all local artists coming together to support this shoreline project.” During the six-week exhibit, the Steam House will host two forums that coincide with the idea of promoting the waterfront. The first is on April 16 from 7 to 9 p.m. and is entitled ‘Animating Public Space Through Art’ and the second takes place on May 14 from 7 to 9 p.m. and is entitled ‘Reimagining Kingston’s Waterfront: Join in the Conversation’. Both are free and are a great opportunity to come check out the exhibit and participate in the dialogue, added Sheedy. In addition to all of the this, Sheedy has created a book showcasing all of the pieces and a postcard that she will be distrib-

Heritage Events – Words as art – that is what Kingstonians saw last summer during the Shoreline Shuffle, an event designed to showcase the Kingston waterfront. Local artist Su Sheedy was one of 16 artists who displayed their work along the shores of the city and now Sheedy has organized an art exhibit to revisit those pieces. “Last year we decided to do something a bit different. We decided to do a sort of movement that spanned the entire 7.7 kilometre stretch of the Kingston waterfront,” explained Sheedy. “We wanted people to see the good, the bad and the possible in the area. Some spots are very disconnected and some are really beautiful, but the whole idea was just to get the city to think about a long-term plan for the entire area as a whole. We want the public involved in creating that plan so we wanted to raise awareness and engagement.” In previous years, mass swim events were held along different areas of the shoreline. They were organized as public protests with the idea of taking back the waterfront and making it a usable space. All events, including the Shoreline Shuffle, were very successful in terms of raising awareness, and even captured the attention of the City of Kingston. “As a result of the Shoreline Shuffle, the City decided to put together a working group that will advise the designers who have been hired to make the spaces more functional,” explained Sheedy. “This will really start the process of making the shoreline more cohesive and functional and creating a long term plan.” The art displayed during the Shuffle was part of a series called ‘Dear Kingston’ and along with the displays, Sheedy asked 16 professional photographers and videographers to come out and shoot the pieces. In exchange for their time, Sheedy promised them a show and now she is delivering. The exhibit opens at the
uting around town. The postcards showcase a photo from the exhibit and on the back they ask ‘What is your vision for the Kingston waterfront?’ and invite people to write a response. Sheedy hopes that these cards will make their way back to the Steam House (the address is already on them) and they will act as a sort of survey in the community. “People can voice their thoughts and really have an input in what will be done to improve the shoreline. We will hand those over to the working group and it will give them an idea of what they should be working towards.” So what is Sheedy’s vision for the waterfront? “My vision for the Kingston waterfront is really all about connection. All the wonderful intention that is going into the different areas is great, but the areas don’t really meet up nicely. We need to make it all connect better. I am hoping that someday you can walk or ride your bike continuously and easily along the almost 8 kilometre stretch that is down there.” For more information on the exhibit at the Steam House visit www.steammuseum.ca

Building education in Africa one school at a time By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Heritage News – For a lot of kids, getting up in the morning and getting ready for school feels like a chore, but in fact it is a privilege that many of them take for granted, according to Marnie McCormac, a Grade 12 student at Ernestown Secondary School and student trustee with the Limestone District School Board. “The amount of children in developing countries who don’t have the luxury we do to attend school daily still overwhelms me everyday,” explained McCormac. McCormac travelled to Kenya in August of 2013 with a group called Me to We. During her three week stay, she helped build a school in Maasai Mara, where very few children have the privilege to attend school. Upon returning from her trip, McCormac wanted to continue helping. “It was such a life changing experience and
when I came back I wanted to do more. I presented the idea of helping out more to Interschool Council, which represents all of the high schools in LDSB. They were really supportive and loved the idea and it became a team project that has really developed.” The school that McCormac helped build was part of the Free the Children campaign; in an effort to promote education, the campaign has pledged to build 200 schools in developing countries over the next year. McCormac hopes that LDSB can build one of those schools. “It is $10,000 to build the school and that includes the desks, chairs, and supplies. To raise that money we have a number of fundraising activities that we are working on.” One of these fundraisers was a dodgeball tournament at LCVI on March 21. High school students from across the district were invited to form teams to compete in the tournament, but the event extended beyond just students. Mc-
Cormac was delighted with the response she received from her classmates and community members. “The dodgeball started out as a fun night for all of the schools to gather and enjoy themselves because we don’t usually have an opportunity to come together as a group. The event really developed into more of a community event with a silent auction, a cake walk, carnival games and multiple donations from the community and everyone really just came together to support our cause and that is fantastic.” Moving forward, students will continue to raise funds for the cause and now they will also have a website to help them out. Local design company Fresh Designza volunteered to build a website for the fundraiser and the page even has a built in donation button.
“If people want to donate outside of the events they can go to www.limestonestudentaction.ca There is also more information on there about the cause, the events, my experiences in Kenya and of course information about our goal,” explained McCormac. McCormac hopes to take future trips to Kenya to build schools and she is encouraging all of her classmates to do so as well, but for now she simply wants to raise awareness about these issues and wants more people to think about the poverty that exists in other countries. Hopefully that will lead them to a donation. “I would encourage people to donate because education, in my opinion, is one of the best causes to support. Education is what breaks the cycle of poverty and I think that building a school is a really great way to contribute to that.”

Daytripper
Places to explore and things to experience
A touching experience By Mark Bergin
Daytripper - Topsy Farms on Amherst Island is an amazing place. Beyond their wool products, no one needs an extra reason to visit. But you’ve got one anyway. A very touching reason. One with serious “Awwwh” factor. It’s almost shearing time, and that will soon be followed by lambing. “We’re really trying to increase the family ambience,” said Sally Bowen. “We’re gearing up to welcome people for shearing sometime around Easter weekend.” “Our shearers are going to do about 900 sheep over two days,” said Ian Murray. Then, around mid-May the lambs will start arriving. “Last year between mid-May and early June about 1,400 lambs were born,” said Murray. You can visit the farm and for a $10 fee have a priceless photo opportunity with the lambs. You can hold a lamb and even hand feed it. Numerous research studies have been conducted on touch. Without it, we shrivel and die, metaphorically; sometimes even literally, as seen in the experience of some eastern European orphanages where babies were deprived of touch. Research into premature babies’ weight gain shows it’s highly co-related with tactile contact. When preemies are placed on lamb’s
wool, they gain weight faster. When we fondly pet a dog, both the dog’s and our own blood pressures drop. So go get some touch therapy with the lambs at Topsy Farms. “It’s a really interactive experience,” said Sally. “And it’s not just children who love it. I’ve seen a 70-year-old woman experience the same ecstasy that a child does. We’re planning on keeping two or three of the foster lambs around during the summer, so people can still come and see them and hand feed them.” It’s easy to get a sense of this farm as a family-friendly place. Three generations currently work the farm. “Our sons learned wool bagging when they were four and six,” said Sally. “Now our grandsons are helping.” For many years, coyotes created havoc on the farm. But a little over three years ago, the folks at Topsy Farms installed coyote resistant fencing. It’s five feet high, with two more feet of electrical wire. There’s a lot of it: six kilometres. When they first installed the fencing, they weren’t sure how well it would work, but coyotes are a huge problem to sheep farmers, and it was worth trying. Murray explained that coyotes were working more in packs and had become more aggressive. The fencing now surrounds the home and farm lambing area. That’s about 250 acres. “There’s tremendous pressure on
sheep farmers,” said Murray. “The coyote is a big problem. The fence has worked well. We’ve had no lambs lost to coyotes inside the fenced areas. So thanks to the expenditure of time and energy, coyotes have become less of an issue.” To help with the sheep outside the fenced areas, there are dogs. It’s unnerving, because the dogs can be hard to pick out from the sheep. They’re the same color and about the same size. Topsy has used several breeds over the years, but they’ve found that the Turkish Akbash is the best breed for the work guarding the sheep from coyotes. They’ve also found the Hungarian Komondor and Italian Maremmas breeds useful. They need dogs that can attach to the sheep more than to people, yet still be able to be handled by people. If you’re interested in watching the sheep shearing, call to find out when it will take place and to book a time to watch. If you’ve never seen shearing, it’s hard to believe your eyes when you see how fast a professional shearer can work. As Topsy Farms becomes more acContinued on page 25

Dickens and other classics beckon filmmaker Continued from page 13
he says. “It’s going to be exciting.” “I’m a big fan of Britain’s Hammer Films,” he said. “They’re a small studio working out of a Victorian Era mansion. They’ve shot the majority of films in that mansion and redecorate every room, yet they’ve kept their offices there. They use the same catalogue of actors. There are strong roles for women and supporting characters. It’s a good feeling to know that other people work like this, in the way that I do.” Mann is writing a book called Terror on a Shoe String, about film making. He says that those interested in studying the
filmmaking art need to look at early horror works like The Uninvited (1944) and later films like The Changeling (1980). “Some great films have been made on limited budgets,” says Mann. “It’s so easy to fake something with CGI (computer-generated imagery). But it lacks the honesty of these classic films. The Uninvited is one of the greatest haunted house films ever made. It’s a wonderful essay on atmosphere and presentation.” And there are new challenges ahead for Mann. In the short term, he’d like to do an adaptation of M.R. James’ 1911 Horror Classic story Casting the Runes. “I’m 90 per cent confident that will be
the next film,” he says. “I enjoy fantasy and dark films.” But he wants to take on another wellknown classic. “A Christmas Carol will be the next big one I really want to do,” he says. “I write a lot of music and I’ve written a musical adaptation of A Christmas Carol.” He’s now working on raising the $15,000 required to take on this project. “We can shoot an incredible film right here in Kingston,” he says. “I’m hoping this time we can get local investors. We’d use about 30 local actors in a community project. With distribution this is the kind of film that

How can I finance my education? With so many different avenues and opportunities to pursue, a lack of funds shouldn’t be a deterrent for anyone who wants to enroll in college. The Academy of Learning College in Kingston is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to advising students on ways to invest in their education. The college admissions office is a great place to start. Its many services include putting students in touch with various funding agencies, such as financial institutions and the Ontario Student Assistance Program, and helping students create a budget. No stone should be left unturned when it comes to finding the funds to reach your goals. The Academy of Learning suggests asking your employer if sponsorship funding is available. It may also be possible to receive sponsorship from outside agencies and admission office representatives can provide direction for applications.
would build every year. It’s a beautiful project, a fresh take on the story, but all the heart of the Dickens novel is in there. I’m hoping we can make this an entirely Canadian produced project.” After A Christmas Carol, Mann isn’t sure what’s next. “I have no idea where all of this is going,” he said. “It’s already gone further than I ever thought it would.” Any investors out there looking for a great project, don’t be a Scrooge. Get in touch with Mann. I’d hate to see Tiny Tim die for lack of funding. Mark Bergin on Twitter @ markaidanbergin.

Winter tough for Howe Island ferry riders By Margaret Knott Correspondent
EMC news- Howe Islanders turned out to hear from Frontenac Islands Township council, Frontenac County representatives, and members of their own Howe Island Ratepayers Association (HIRA), about the island’s ferry system and its future. This winter has been tough on the system and tough for travellers. It has been a winter of heavy winds, extremely cold temperatures, thick ice and a non functional bubbler system, all of which resulted in the Frontenac Howe Island ferry experiencing shutdowns and delays, causing much frustration and concern for Howe Island residents . HIRA called for the meeting particularly in light of Mayor Denis Doyle’s recent meeting with the Ontario Minister of Transportation, Glen Murray, to talk about island transportation,(Howe and Wolfe) and to present the results of a HIRA transportation survey. There to meet the public from the county: Acting CAO Marian VanBruinessen, Transportation Services Paul Charbonneau; Frontenac Islands Mayor Doyle, Deputy Mayor David Jones, Councillor Natalie Nossal, CAO Darlene Lumley, and HIRA’s Ed Besseau, Brian Humphries, and Jim Mills. Mayor Doyle brought Islanders up to date regarding events that led to the ferry shut down crisis. “ Safety however is always been our main concern and thanks to Chief Quinn and Chief Charbonneau we had contingency plans in place for ambulance service,” he said. “We also have a township emergency plan (recently rehearsed) we were prepared to activate in a moments notice.” The bubbler system that worked originally, failed in the extreme weather conditions that finally led to a shut down of the for a few days. MTO is monitoring the system’s performance, and repairs will be made before next winter and/or alternative technology will be considered.. Early on, Mayor Doyle and Councillor Jones met with MTO officials, and MPP John Gerretsen, about the problems. Later, Doyle, along with Marian VanBruinessen, met with Transportation Minister Glen Murray who wants to see action on the ferry file and a plan to solve immediate and long term issues facing Howe and Wolfe Islands. The Mayor and CAO Darlene Lumley also met MTO’s Kathy Moore and staff officials about the issues including repairs to the bubbler system. “Technicalities prevent the latter happening immediately but an excavator will remain in place to move ice at Howe Island. A long range plan
will follow,” Doyle said. Deputy Mayor Jones said many residents had expressed their appreciation for the great efforts made by the County, the Township and the ferry operators, as well as volunteers “who saw the situation with the ferry as crisis and stepped up to help.” Chief Charbonneau acknowledged and thanked ferry staff for their efforts to keep to keep the Frontenac Howe Island ferry operating. “But lost to Mother Nature.” Explaining the relationship between MTO, the County and the township, he said, ” MTO owns it all., docks, assets, bubble system, and all costs. Local staff monitor the system. We deal with the issues we can; forward those we cannot to MTO They shut down the bubbler system,” he said. “ County responsibilities include staffing the ferry, providing for their health and safety, to collect fees and fares for the township, and look after the safe operation of the vessel “. Charbonneau acknowledged HIRA’s suggestions for more communication with the public regarding the ferry service, alerts, etc., noting twitter and email accounts., ( accessed by 550 residents) where county and township formation about the ferry system is posted. “Our role is to operate to the best of our ability for staff and residents. We will shut it down if we have to,” he said. Wearing his other hat Chief Charbonneau noted Howe Island has the finest First Response team in Ontario, adding that they and Chief Quinn are working with ‘Ornge’ and OPP Search and Rescue preparing now for what might be a difficult spring breakup. CAO Lumley invited the public to present input and ideas for a contingency plan in the event of an emergency. Jim Mills, following up on the Dec. 2013 Howe Island Ferry Service survey, noted general satisfaction with the county and township ferry services and ‘great’ satisfaction with the staff operators of the vessels. Survey returns represent 120 residents. While certain frustrations with the service still exist, since the last survey in 2007, the ferry now makes 4 trips an hour and the foot ferry now operates all year round. A lively Q&A period followed. Nearly every comment was prefaced with great satisfaction for ferry staff, no matter the statement, question or concern expressed . All were noted and will be considered. by the County.

King’s Town Players bring a Canadian classic to life By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Heritage Events – Hagar Shipley is at the end of her life. She has fought death for a long time, but now as she lies in a hospital bed, she reflects on her life and the choices she made. “The play is really about Hagar’s last day of life basically,” explained Sandie Cond who plays the role of Hagar in The Stone Angel, a play adapted by James W. Nichol from Margaret Laurence’s famous novel. “There are really only three parts where we are in real time throughout the play and the rest of it is focused on her memories, dreams and on her working through how she got to where she is.” Cond, who actually taught the novel for many years when she was a high school teacher, loves the character of Hagar and was excited to finally play her on stage. “Hagar is one of the most clearly drawn characters in literature. She is really three dimensional and extremely well developed. I loved her because she is human and she recognizes her foibles eventually and I really love her stubborn nature.” For director Frances Berry, the character of
Hagar took hold of her too. Berry read the novel when she first moved to Canada from England in 1970. Although she was young, she identified with this older, stubborn woman. When King’s Town Players approached her recently about directing the play version of the novel, Berry was delighted to take it on. “I was just grabbed by The Stone Angel. I like [Laurence’s other famous novel] The Diviners too, but it didn’t grab me in the same way that The Stone Angel did. It was a little strange because I was pretty young at the time and the novel deals with an older woman and why I related to her I still don’t know, I just did.” Both Berry and Cond have won Ontario Drama League (ODL) awards for their recent work in both acting and directing and they are hoping to bring some accolades to King’s Town Players too. This production of The Stone Angel will be entered into the ODL awards this year and is actually the first time King’s Town has entered the competition. Berry is sure that the play will be a success regardless, and she attributes most of that to the seasoned actors she has been able to work with. Her directing role has felt less like work
this time around and more like observerving. The play has been a bit challenging in terms of its structure, but she is confident that it will all come together. “The play is very true to the novel and a lot of Hagar’s speeches are taken directly from the novel,” explained Berry. “The play also flips back and forth between the past and present, just like the novel, and that is a little challenging on stage. The play is all about memories and that makes it a harder to convey at times.” John Geddes, who is taking on the role of Hagar’s father, just hopes that people will come out and let themselves be open to a unique live theatre experience. “I think it is great to encourage people to come out and see live theatre. People are used to cinema and big movies, but there is something very unique about live theatre,” explained Geddes. “Every production of a play and every performance of a play is very different. Live theatre lets the audience really connect with the play and they can see it in real time. I
would really encourage people to come out and see it just for that reason.” The Stone Angel runs from March 25-29 and April 2-5 at The Domino Theatre. Tickets are $20 per person and are available at www.kingstontheatretickets.com or tickets@kingstownplayers.com. Limited tickets will be available at the door.

A touching experience tively involved in agritourism and helping to attract visitors to Amherst Island, they’ve come up with some interesting ideas. Sally and Ian’s son, Jacob Murray, has done some magnificent stone wall building. During lilac season, they’re planning on offering a tour of stone walls on the island in cooperation with The Lodge on Amherst Island. For artists and artisans, there isn’t better wool than what is available at Topsy Farms. At the farmgate shop, you’ll find almost every imaginable sheep and wool product. You can feel ultrasoft lambskins and sheepskin mitts, slippers and baby boots. These include both medical and shaggy types of skins. Topsy Farms also sells its own wool and over 30 colors of yarn, along with many yarn products, such as blankets and throws. For comfy warmth, the Wool Shed offers pillows, bedding, mattress pads, and comforters that are made from Topsy Farms’ natural wool encased in unbleached cotton. “Very few sheep farmers want to put the effort into marketing wool,” said Murray. “I can appreciate why. We knew it would be uphill work. We’ve been very patient over the years and now we have a lot of wool and sheep products to offer.” Murray has been actively involved on the farm since 1970. His wife, Sally Bowen, came on board
in 1977. They married in 1981. Bowen explained that there are many misconceptions about wool, including that it is itchy. “Almost always, people are allergic to the way wool is processed, not to wool itself.” She said that if wool fibre is not processed gently and naturally, the fibre breaks. Little barbs form on the broken fibre. “That’s what people feel as prickly,” said Bowen. “Wool becomes prickly when it’s commercially processed. The fibres split under harsh treatment. It’s the commercial processing and chemicals that cause the itchiness.” Topsy Farms sends their wool to a water-run mill in Prince Edward Island for processing. “They only use soap, no detergent,” said Bowen. “A lot of natural lanolin is left in.2:41 TheAMfibre is left long and silky.” You would tell them is that Another misconception about your heart condition you can’t wash wool. “Even sheepskin is washable,” and your medication. said Bowen. “The trick is to just soak the wool and use cold water.

To get to the farm, take Bath Road west from Kingston. At Millhaven, board the Amherst Island Ferry. It leaves the mainland on the half hour (and leaves Stella on the island on the hour). After getting off the ferry on Amherst Island, turn right at Front Road. Continue on past the “Not a through road” sign until you come to the farm at 14775 Front Road. The cost for a two-way ferry ride to the island is $9. Topsy is a busy working farm, so call first to make sure someone will be on staff at the farmgate Wool Shed.

Inner peace and physical health are just a Namaste away at Unio Wellness By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
Heritage News - When Bethany Smith stumbled into her first yoga class during her first year of university, she had no idea the practice would soon turn into a passion that would marry perfectly with her eventual career as a counselor. “I didn’t realize then what a big part of my life yoga would become,” she says. “The benefits extend far beyond increased mobility and strength. As my practice grows stronger, I feel stronger mentally and emotionally, my stress level stays manageable and I have a sense of clarity. Yoga has been such a positive force in my life and I want to share that experience with others.” Smith obtained her yoga teacher certification around the same time she began to pursue a master’s degree in counseling psychology at Queen’s. She later started teaching several yoga classes a week at
Studio 330 in downtown Kingston, and increasingly found that there was a lot in common between her approaches to counseling and yoga instructing. “The way I usually think of my counseling is that it is holistic,” she says. “It doesn’t have to just be emotional and mental problems. It can be if people want to make changes to their physical selves as well. And yoga is very similar in that it’s not just about building strength and flexibility, it’s really about learning mindfulness and it can be very powerful for mental health and spiritual health if people want it to be that way.” This philosophy inspired her to open a new counseling service, Unio Wellness. “Unio” is Latin for union, and references Smith’s holistic approach to health. “I believe that our best selves shine when we focus on the whole person – mind, body and heart,” Smith explains. “I want to engage clients to create feelings of
purpose and joy in their lives by addressing emotions and thoughts that are creating barriers to wellness.” By offering counseling and public speaking services, as well as private and corporate yoga classes, her hope is to make Kingston an all-around happier, healthier community. Indeed, Smith emphasizes that you don’t necessarily need to have a problem to come to counseling – a goal of reinforcing something that’s going well can be equally important. “It can be anyone who is interested in making change. Maybe changing their pattern of thinking or maybe the language that they use to speak to themselves. Or it could be more of a behavioral change - making changes to nutrition or physical activity. It could be learning new regulation skills. It could be getting unstuck with a really challenging decision.” Smith says that helping others thrive and making a difference in her community
are things she’s longed to do since the first time she visited a counselor herself years ago. “Through my experiences with a counselor myself, I discovered that this was the profession for me. I am so grateful for my counselor’s warmth, compassion and confidence in me, and for how they helped me discover the tools within to manage the challenges I was facing.” Through Unio, Smith hopes to pay it forward in her own unique way, and enhance her clients’ awareness of the often unsung power of the mind-body connection. “Things are changing, but there is still a gap between physical and mental health. Things like physical activity and positive eating habits are so important for mental health and likewise, mental and emotional strategies promote physical health. Physical and mental health are so interconnected; I want to offer services that recognize and celebrate a holistic model of well-being.”

that added an additional significant amount so we ended up at just over $11 million in tax levy compared to $10.2 million in 2013, which is an increase of eight per cent.” The eight per cent increase was deemed unacceptable by council and they tasked staff with finding areas that could be reduced in terms of cost and areas that could boost revenue too. In the end, the levy was reduced by $474,000 to $10,548,300. Areas of reduction included components of new strategic initiatives as well as line item reductions and fee increases in a number of operational areas. “The total increase came out to five per cent in terms of township taxes,” added Moffatt, “This
year was particularly challenging, probably in part because it is an election year and we also lost $125,000 of revenue from the provincial government that is meant to cover underlying costs. Those underlying costs increase each year with inflation so with that cut we need to make up the difference somewhere. We have no other source of revenue to make up for that so it needs to come from the tax rate.” The five per cent increase results in an annual charge of $611.23 per $100,000 of residential property assessed value, or $50.94 per month. In terms of visible changes, residents won’t see any change in level of service when it comes to garbage and recycling, or police services, but they will see changes to internal infrastructure for the township, added Moffatt.
“Residents will see changes where most of the strategic initiatives come in and that is in a focus on internal infrastructure for the township. The township is growing and with that comes additional staff that needs to be accommodated and our technological infrastructure needs to be reinforced and made stronger.” It’s not all increase though, the township made some hard cuts to staffing hours and also reduced their contribution to the conservation authority. Overall, added Moffatt, the budget reflects Council’s need to maintain and enhance the level of municipal services and infrastructure in the township while monitoring the effect on taxpayers.

How to find the right real estate lawyer Buying or selling real estate is rarely free of complications. Unforeseen issues often arise during real estate transactions, and in such instances a real estate attorney can prove invaluable. While buyers, sellers or veteran real estate investors might be able to handle minor or routine issues on their own or with the help of their realtor, more complex matters are best left in the hands of a real estate attorney.
considerable experience in your state and city or the state and city where the transaction is taking place. Plan of action
When interviewing prospective attorneys, don't assume each one knows the best way
he plans to represent you, including what needs to be done to get the transaction off the ground, any potential hurdles that might need to be cleared and how to clear those should they arise. Avoid attorneys who give general or ambiguous answers, as such answers may be poor attempts by the lawyer to mask his or her inexperience with transactions such
One of the benefits to hiring a real estate attorney when negotiating a complex or potentially complex real estate transaction is the expertise that lawyers can bring to the table. Realtors may have vast experience buying and selling homes, and many are adept at negotiating as well. But realtors are not licensed to practice law, and even the savviest realtor would admit that offering legal advice is not his or her forte. Men and women involved in complex or potentially complex real estate transactions would be wise to hire a real estate attorney, and the following are a few things to consider before hiring someone to represent you.
Attorneys are expensive, so it's best to discuss the billing process before hiring someone to represent you. Attorneys tend to bill by the hour, but their rates may be negotiable depending on the service they're providing. Those who will be overseeing your real estate transaction and continuously representing you will likely bill by the hour, but if you're hiring a real estate attorney to examine a potential agreement or draft a contract then you can probably negotiate a flat fee for those services. But be sure to discuss billing before hiring an attorney. Real estate transactions are rarely inexpensive, so you don't want to be blindsided down the road when your legal bills come due. Representation
When interviewing an attorney, many people assume the attorney they initially interviewed will be the person who represents them throughout the transaction. However, the day-to-day work on your case may be assigned to a junior associate or even someone who isn't licensed to practice law, such as a paralegal or a current law school student who is interning with the firm. These people might be perfectly capable of handling your transaction, but you should meet them before hiring the firm to represent you. A good rapport with the person who will be working on your case can ease the stress associated with complex real estate transactions.
