Princess Street’s bike lane debate will cycle back to City Hall By Bill Hutchins Reporter

EMC News – Cars and cyclists may collide at the horseshoe this week. There is a push to get Kingston city council to undo a controversial decision to install bike lanes on a 1.2 kilometre stretch of Princess Street, between Bath Road and Division Street. It’s being fueled by store owners who don’t want to lose 66 on-street parking spaces. Business owners and a handful of councillors describe the bike lanes as “orphaned” because they will go from nowhere to nowhere, not connecting with any other cycling infrastructure on the roads. “The issue with locating 1.2 kilometres of orphaned bike lanes in Williamsville is that there is limited space from store front to store front to accommodate many needs and users,” wrote Coun. Sandy Berg in a recent council blog to explain why she

voted against the plan. The initial Williamsville Main Street study did not recommend bike lanes because the roadway is only 17 to 20 metres wide – not enough to fit dedicated cycling lanes, two lanes of traffic, parked vehicles and the newly-launched express transit service. However, a second review of the study found bike lanes could fit if parking spaces were removed from certain blocks. Council voted 10-3 to proceed with buffered cycling lanes after a hotly-debated amendment to follow the original study’s recommendation was defeated 8-5. Since the mid-August approval, there has been a groundswell of opposition from certain business owners who fear a sharp drop in business if street parking is lost. “The city never told us about losing the parking, not one stitch of information,” complained Ida-Mae Lows, who co-owns Start Diner at 849 Princess Street and stands to lose as many as nine municipal

parking spots in front of her restaurant. Lows doesn’t take issue with the bike lanes as much as the impact it will have on parking. She started a petition that calls on the city to keep the parking, so street front businesses like hers don’t become a “ghost town.” To counter the controversy, dozens of cyclists staged a ride down midtown’s Princess Street on September 13 to urge council to stand by its decision. They said bike lanes are an important part of the revitalization of the Williamsville district to make it more cycle and pedestrian friendly. District councillor Jim Neill also supports the need for bike lanes down both sides of the street, telling an earlier council meeting that to reject the idea represents a seriously blow to Kingston’s much-publicized drive to become Canada’s most sustainable city. “The reality is we are lagging desperately behind other

communities.” Whether council is willing to reconsider bike lanes will depend on whether enough bike lane supporters have a change of mind. It will take a two-thirds vote just to reopen the debate. The attempt could be made Sept. 24. It may be tough to persuade any of the eight councillors who supported bike lanes to revisit the idea, but opponents of the ‘sustainable’ transportation plan are hoping a 700-plus name petition will carry some weight. Another factor weighing heavily in the potentially renewed political debate is the planned reconstruction of the midtown street. City officials have already warned that any delays in finalizing the bike lane policy could jeopardize next year’s planned facelift of Princess Street between Bath Road and MacDonnell Street because the engineering designs need to be finalized.

City of Kingston canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford Living Wage policy: Staff report concludes By Bill Hutchins Reporter

Heritage News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s support of a living wage policy for all municipal services and contracts would be a serious drain on municipal taxes and the idea should not be pursued, according to a staff report. City council decided to investigate the financial impact of adopting a living wage policy - which would pay about $6 an hour above the provincially set minimum wage - to help lift more people out of homelessness and poverty. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we want to break the cycle of poverty â&#x20AC;Ś we need to start down this road,â&#x20AC;? said Coun. Bill Glover when he brought in a motion last December that aimed to boost the minimum wage to $16.29 an hour for all civic employees and external contractors that do business with the city. The $16.29 hourly target represents food prices, transportation expenses, affordable housing costs and child care for a single working person to earn $30,543 a year, compared with established poverty income level of $19,218 a year.

However, after a detailed review, municipal staff concluded the city canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford it. While the majority of full-time city employees already earn over $16.29 an hour, there are numerous temporary, part-time and seasonal municipal workers who would have to get a big raise. It would cost the city treasury an extra $2 million a year in additional salaries and other fees. The figure could go even higher if outside contractors that do business with City Hall - from snow plow operators to office supply firms - were required to pay the same rate to their employees, said a staff report. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These cost increases would have to be covered through property taxes and/or program fee increases, therefore making programs less affordable,â&#x20AC;? said community services commissioner Lanie Hurdle in her Sept. 12 report to the administrative policies committee. Council will have the final say on whether the policy is pursued or abandoned. Hurdles makes it clear the multi-million dollar cost to implement a living wage in the municipal sector â&#x20AC;&#x153;would make it im-

A vintage fundraiser for John A. Bicentennial Committee By Jim Barber Staff Writer

Heritage News - Sir John A. Macdonald was a figure of towering importance and significance to the early history of Canada. The prime mover behind the notion of Canada becoming an independent nation, unifying the various provinces of British North America through Confederation, he is intrinsically linked with Kingston and the surrounding area – including Napanee, where Macdonald lived for a brief period of time as a young man, and where he gave his final campaign speech in 1891. A Napanee winery has partnered with

the Sir John A. Macdonald Bicentennial Commission to produce a special wine to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Canada’s first prime minister, and also act as a fundraiser for the organization. David Bergeron, of Bergeron Estate Winery & Cider Co. in the southern end of the Napanee, was approached by the commission to partner on the venture, something that appealed to his sincere appreciation for local heritage. “We are very big into the history of this region. We are located right on the Loyalist Parkway, which was where the Loyalists first landed in the 1780s after the American Revolution. Adolphus Reach, [off the shore from the village of Adolphustown] is where a lot of the first

trade and economy got set up, and was an important part of the history of Canada. And the fact that for a few years, Sir John A. Macdonald lived less than 10 kilometres away from our winery [on Hay Bay], makes this a great partnership,” said winery owner David Bergeron. Bergeron bought his property on the south side of Highway 33 in 2002, and began planting different varieties of wine grapes. The boutique winery opened its doors in 2007, and was a success right out of the gate. At the moment, 10 acres are being used for five varieties of grapes. The winery produces and sells Pinot Noir, Riesling, Gerwurztraminer, Vidal (Vidal Blanc) and Gamay (Gamay Noir), and between 80 and 90 per cent of the 1,000 to 1,200 cases are sold through the winery itself. The remainder is sold to about 10 restaurants in the area. In2011,Bergeron began producing and selling a hard cider called Cole Point Cider, named for the promontory that juts into Lake Ontario and forms part of the Bergeron family property; it was named for one of the first Loyalist Settlers, Daniel Cole. Last summer, a small pizzeria opened at the winery, allowing the venue to host groups, tourists and business meetings. The blend used for the Sir John.

A Macdonald Bicentennial Wine was a 2012 Riesling/Vidal, which Bergeron said was of exceptional quality. “We already had the blend, but the vintage for 2012 was one of the best years for Ontario wines that is going to come out. So we dedicated that whole year to the Sir John A. Macdonald committee and raising funds for their activities,” he said. “2012 was very hot and dry and there were near-drought conditions, but we got enough rain to keep the plants going and those were just exceptional growing conditions for wine grapes. Therefore the 2012 wine harvest has some very nice flavours and the wines are turning out very nice. We think Sir John A., would have appreciated it.” Two dollars from every bottle sold will go to the commission, and folks working to promote Sir John. A bicentennial activities couldn’t be more thrilled with the partnership with Bergeron Estate. “This is a great example of an area business seizing the opportunity presented by the 200thy birthday of Sir John A. MacDonald,” said Jim Garrad, executive director of the Sir John A. Macdonald Bicentennial Commission, in a press release. “We hope this will encourage other groups and businesses in the area and across Canada to become involved in this crucial national commemoration.” Thanks to commissioner Arthur Milnes and his connections on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Bergeron was able to present the very first bottle of Sir John A. Macdonald Bicentennial Wine to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, in his private office, a couple of weeks ago. “That was pretty exciting. Because of his schedule, we were told to expect only a minimal amount of time with him, but we were actually able

to spend eight to 10 minutes, which is considerable. And Mr. Harper himself was quite excited about the history of where Sir John A. lived and the history of Adolphustown and surrounding area. So for a small businessperson from Napanee, it was very exciting and it was nice that he found it very interesting as well,” Bergeron said. “He was very genuine and appreciative of the notion that we got him the first bottle and actually had it recorded as a registered gift with the Government of Canada.” Gavin Cosgrove, a Kingston lawyer and member of the commission’s volunteer steering committee, was part of the presentation in the Prime Minister’s Office. “The prime minister was very interested in our commission’s work and mandate, and we thanked him for the support his government has already given the Macdonald Bicentennial celebrations,” he said.

Heritage News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The City of Kingston has adopted a 14-point plan to try and reduce the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unwanted pet population. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a new way of doing business,â&#x20AC;? said Janice Saunders, president of the Kingston Humane Society, who endorsed the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most ambitious ever attempt to stop unwanted litters. The so-called Responsible Pet Ownership Program (RPOP) includes a tax contribution of $50,000 a year to establish a lowcost spay/neuter program that will benefit low income pet owners. The program will provide a $100 voucher to pet owners who qualify. Some councillors tried to remove the spay/neuter proposal due to the cost of running it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do not support municipal funds paying for a spay-neuter program,â&#x20AC;? said Coun. Sandy Berg. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a concern with the price tag associated with this,â&#x20AC;? agreed Coun. Bryan Paterson. Coun. Paterson noted the cost of operating a municipal pound â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a 5-year service contract was recently awarded to the Kingston Humane Society â&#x20AC;&#x201C; has already tripled in the past year to more than $375,000 a year. He added: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the right time to spend an additional $50,000.â&#x20AC;? However, Coun. Bergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amendment to remove a subsidized clinic from the RPOP list was defeated 8-4 at the September 10 council meeting. Most agree the clinic is a cornerstone strategy to reduce the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pet over-population problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to make sure we control our animal population and this is an important component of it,â&#x20AC;? said Coun. Rick Downes. Council was told that a subsidized service will eventually lead to tax savings as fewer unwanted cats and dogs end up at the cityfunded pound, where daily boarding fees can be very expensive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is an opportunity to prevent some of those (animal pound costs),â&#x20AC;? said Mayor Mark Gerretsen. Saunders says the reclamation rate for impounded cats is just four per cent. The vast majority, she says, are left in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s care. It costs $25 a day to board a cat. After three days, the cat is moved from the pound to the Humane Society where it becomes available for adoption. Euthanizing animals is a last resort. Coun. Brian Reitzel says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d prefer the spay-neuter program be self-funded and not the responsibility of taxpayers. He says the $50,000 annual fee is tough to afford when the city is looking for savings to limit next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s property tax increase. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make me responsible, as a taxpayer, because somebody isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t responsible for their ani-

mals,â&#x20AC;? he argued. But Coun. Kevin George says the $50,000 investment in low cost spay-neuter services will eventually reduce the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peranimal pound costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good thing to do.â&#x20AC;? Councillors had no qualms supporting the rest of the RPOP policy, approved by a 10-2 vote, which includes incentives to get more pets licensed, and stiffer financial penalties for pet owners whose untagged animals go stray and end up at the pound.

Last weeks of summer offered much activity in Frontenac Islands By Margaret Knott Correspondent

EMC news- A trip away, through a part of Canada I had never seen, opened my eyes to the size of our country. . Travelling from Edmonton to Whitehorse and onto Dawson City, where populations are not measured according to persons per square mile but by how many square miles of land there are per person. That’s the Yukon. Where tourism is as important to the economy as it is to us here on Wolfe Island, and where there is much concerted effort and activity to create welcoming communities that tell the stories, the why and how they came to be. Much to our surprise many of even the smallest of communities had a facility of some sort or another for seniors, had water and even in some areas, sewage, encourage cycling as well as recycling, and are conscious of protecting the environment. I was overwhelmed by the bigness and the beauty on our travel. In our absence however events of interest were missed. Here’s a bit of a catch up. 1. There was: The Sacred Heart Parish Social held following Sunday Mass the week before Labour Day, when many of Wolfe Island’s cottagers leave the island for another year. The annual social, again organized by Leslie, provided the opportunity for the parish family to get together one more time.

2. The Wolfe Island Historical Society held their annual AGM with more than 50 people attending, according to Treasurer Brian MacDonald. “The same four people, Denis Cherquitte, Judy Greenwood–Speers, Brian Johnson and John O’Shea were returned in the same four spots. Hank (Hendry)Connell is President, VP Mike Bromley, Secretary Judy Speers,” he said. A highlight of the evening was the continuation of “Ferry Tales” with Captain Brian Johnson, who with his wealth of information and easy style, always draws a crowd eager to hear the stories of days gone by on the waters of Lake Ontario and the mighty St Lawrence River. (Captain Johnson was a recent guest speaker at the Ontario Genealogical Society Kingston Branch). “Ferry Tales” is the title of his book. 3. And then there was the WI Ploughing Match held at the Henry Posthumus-Janine Handforth Farm, where 33 persons participated along with 6 celebrity ploughmen including Frontenac Islands Mayor Denis Doyle, Abby Anghelescu, Councillor Barbara Springgay, Mayor Gary Davison (South Frontenac) , MPP John Gerretsen and ELVIS. The island’s Queen of the Furrow – Morgan Roy attended. There were 5 horse ploughmen this year according to association secretary Wilma Sjonger, “the match was a great success and a number of our own will attend the International

Match.” 4. In conversation with Mayor Doyle, I heard that the Frontenac County Official Plan meeting on Howe was well attended providing great feed back for County Planner Joe Gallivan. He added that the September Council meeting on WI included an Open House on the proposed Community Improvement Plan (CIP) brought out about 50 persons, moving it to the Community Hall where he noted acoustics are a problem. Frontenac County’s Peter Young and Anne Marie Young presented the program and received the feedback. According to Mayor Doyle, $70,000 has been allocated out of the Federal Gas Tax funds received by the County to assist in Village of Marysville improvements. “Several village business owners and residents were present for the discussion, which was all positive,” he said adding that two By-laws were presented. “ The first, which passed, defines the area covered by the CIP from the water front on the north, to the Community Centre grounds on the south, 7th line on the east, to the end of Hillcrest Street on the west. The second, that the council enact the CIP for the redevelopment, and beautification, etc. of Marysville, and received first and second reading allowing time for further public review and comment before the final reading at the Octo-

ber 15th Council meeting,” he said. The CIP can be viewed in detail at the WI Town Hall. 5. Many in attendance had come to support Island Grill owner Casey Fisher’s request for on going exemptions to the recently passed ‘Noise Bylaw’ to allow for music as part of the business and its sustainability (out door live and indoor live (closed doors) at specific hours (days and evenings) dependant upon availability of musicians. At the same time, according to Mayor Doyle, Marysville resident Key Keyes was there as spokesperson for village residents who had collected over 50 signatures to express concerns about changes to the by-law without some restrictions. “Both parties had people out to support their position a good open debate took place,” Doyle said. “It was generally agreed that our approach should be to specify the level of decibels (db) that could be allowed at various times of the day in our by-law. Staff will meet with our By-law Enforcement Officer to investigate what db levels are typically used in other jurisdictions, and in other by-laws he is familiar with. It was also agreed that when the proposed changes were received that a meeting would be held with Casey Fisher and Mr. Keyes to discuss the acceptability.” 6. Doyle added that a back of the

village east side (Plan 65)lot owner Christi Hayhoe attended the meeting to discuss how a road could be put in to allow access to her lot, get a building permit and build. “We agreed t get a cost estimate for a road and to organize a meeting with all parties including the Plan 65 major property owner.” 7. According to the Mayor, Wednesday October 30, 2013 has been declared “Child Care Worker and Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day”. “The discussion leading up to the resolution recognized that Child Care Workers are very important to the islands. Without this service a lot of people would have to take their children to the city, using up spaces on the ferry during busy commuter ferry trips.” Finally Mayor Doyle noted that the rink project is moving along but the awarding of major contracts is still pending. Council meets next Oct. 15th Howe Island, 6:30 pm Around Town: * Thurs. Sept. 26th the St. Lawrence Women’s Institute will present the 1995-2012 Tweedsmuir Books at a reception from 6-8 pm at WI Public Library honouring late Institute member Mrs. Connie Woodman. * Apple Fest Bruce &Peggy Horne’s Orchard Sat.

In Our Opinion

Party in-fighting a recipe for political irrelevance

Planning for our Great American Road Trip Hollie Pratt-Campbell Ast. Editor

@hollieprattcamp

Heritage Editorial - I’ve never been one for making lists. In the past, I’ve thought about list making often in an abstract way, and genuinely believing it to be an admirable and useful task. I’ve just never had the time or the motivation to pick up a pen and categorize things. Until now. I am frantically searching for ways to bring some order to my life, because god knows I’m going to need it. In a couple of weeks, my wee family will embark on our biggest adventure yet: We are driving down to Washington, DC, to visit my Aunt Michelle and Uncle Johannes. I am very excited about this trip. There are few things in life I enjoy more than travelling. I’ve also worked very hard over the last few months and need a break. The trouble is, I’ve never travelled this distance or for this long - a week - with a toddler before, and I

want to do everything in my power to make sure this vacation is enjoyable and relaxing. Realizing that the odds are against me, I’ve turned to lists. I deem the “things for Summer” list, for example, integral to my not having a mental breakdown sate side. Summer will need at least 14 outfits and five sleepers. We need to bring the playpen for her to sleep in. (Yes, it is necessary to add this to the list. It’s so big and obvious it seems a certainty we would drive off without it otherwise.) We need to bring at least 20 smallish toys to make sure she is entertained in the car. I need to load up the iPod with Wiggles songs for the same reason. I could go on, but there isn’t enough room on our editorial page for the entire list. “Questions to ask Michelle” is another list that’s getting longer by the day. Things that in the past I never would have given a second thought to until the day of the trip now seem like big deals. Where do we park when we get there? What’s the weather like in Washington in October? Is there a grocery store nearby? How far is it from the guest room to where we’ll be hanging out after Summer’s bedtime?

Do I need to bring a baby monitor? Again, I could go on. It’s hard to believe that I am the same person who spent a grand total of three hours packing for a month long trip to Europe back in 2006. “Just throw it all in a suitcase” was my motto then. If I forgot something, meh, they had stores in Paris. Having a child changes you in ways that are unfathomable before you become a parent. Life is turned upside down, and for me even the little differences were hard to get used to. Making someone else’s breakfast at an ungodly hour of the morning before I can even think of putting the coffee on. Not being able to sit and enjoy dinner in peace. Spending the evening chasing a toddler around instead of reading or watching TV. Not to mention the whole five hours of sleep on a good night bit. Summer brings a great deal of joy to our world. Still, life can be exhausting and hard, qualities that can be lessened by one thing only: organization. Admittedly, this does take some fun out of a vacation, as I’ve always been more of the spontaneous type. But I’m doing my best. I’ll let you know how it goes.

8 The Kingston EMC - Thursday, September 26, 2013

Heritage Editorial - If an organization is trying to create an impression of stability, integrity and competence in the hearts and minds of the general public, overt displays of petulance, disunity and discord tend not to go over too well. If this scenario is happening within the construct of a political party attempting to win popular support and votes from an increasingly fickle and disenchanted electorate – it’s political self-immolation. Such is the lot for the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party and its duly-elected leader Tim Hudak. For a few months now, internal rumblings of discontent have bubbled over into overt words and action, with party officials, party members and even elected PC MPPs battling over Hudak’s leadership in a rather shameless and certainly unhelpful manner. A party activist from Ottawa named Debbie Jodoin launched a social media campaign to try and undermine the folks she believes are undermining Hudak, and was hoping to raise enough support to cause some real problems for anti-Hudak forces at the party’s policy convention held last week in London. A couple of weeks back, maverick Progressive Conservative MPP for LanarkFrontenac-Lennox & Addington Randy Hillier – the MPP that represents part of our coverage area – was ‘demoted’ by being stripped of his duties as the Official Opposition Critic for Labour. Ostensibly, it was because he broke caucus confidentiality after circulating an email critical of a labour-related PC private-members bill that was supported by Hudak. But it really was a case of Hudak reaching his breaking point with an MPP who seemed to be actively working to unseat him from the big chair. Hillier ran against Hudak for the party leadership in 2009, but finished a distant fourth. So perhaps his grapes are still sour. But regardless of the motivations and machinations of the folks involved, and whether these activities are going on in private or in public, under the watchful eye of the media, the result is the same – bad press, bad optics and a bad brand. No matter how solid, cogent and appropriate the Progressive Conservative Party’s policies may be, if they can’t have all the oars rowing in the same direction, their political ship is going to crash upon the rocky shoals of the next provincial election. And that election could come at any time, depending on how well Liberal premier Kathleen Wynne and NDP leader Andrea Horwath are getting along. If a major political party cannot run its own operations, why should voters in Ontario trust that they can run something as complex as the biggest, wealthiest, most demanding province in Confederation? The answer is they shouldn’t, and most likely won’t. Ask federal Liberals how their public leadership spats and soap operas have worked for them over the past decade? If the Tories want to unseat an incredibly vulnerable provincial Liberal administration, they need to quickly, decisively and authentically get their leadership house in order, and get everyone on the same page – at least for public consumption. The alternative is many more years in the political wilderness.

Kingston to host first Cruise for the Camps event Staff Writer

Heritage Events - A group of truck drivers from the Tim Hortons Kingston Distribution Centre decided they wanted to go the extra mile to help raise money to send underprivileged kids to camp. Well, more accurately, they decided they wanted to go the extra couple hundred kilometres. The drivers are also motorcycle enthusiasts and love nothing better than mounting their powerful motorized iron steeds and roaring through the autumnal countryside around southeastern Ontario for one more great ride before stowing the gear for the winter. So they brought both notions together – charity and a last ride for 2013 – and have organized the Cruise for Camps motorcycle poker run, with proceeds going to the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation. It will take place on Saturday, Sept. 28, starting at the distribution centre, located at 1119 Innovation Dr. in Kingston’s west end. Registration takes place onsite from 8 to 10 a.m., and all riders are welcome. “The camp is an important thing to us all. And at the warehouse, everybody is involved in raising money for it. We have ongoing events as well as a payroll deduction. We’re all involved. But a bunch of us got together and said, ‘let’s put on a poker run and see if we can raise some money,’” said organizer Rick Sweetman. “I know that everyone in the warehouse and all the drivers that have motorcycles will be participating, but

the response we are getting from the members of the public who want to participate has been amazing. I guess when you put the ideas of helping kids and motorcycles and coffee together, it gets people excited.” The cost to participate is $20 per helmet, which includes a barbecue after the ride from 2 to 4 p.m. back at the distribution centre. Up to three additional cards for the poker run can also be purchased for $5 per card. The person with the best poker hand at the end of the ride wins a prize and there will also be many random draw prizes. Many of the prizes have been donated by Tim Hortons corporate head office, and others by Kingston-area businesses. Riders get a card when they start and then one each at checkpoints in Gananoque, Brockville and Smith Falls and upon returning. It’s expected that the trip will take around three hours, although riders can go at their own pace. Maps will be given to each bike upon registration. Members of the public who can’t participate in the poker run but still want to support the cause can come out to the barbecue portion and get a burger or hot dog and drink for a donation. Posters have been put up in Tim Hortons outlets from throughout eastern Ontario in hopes of bringing in a large crowd of participants, and thus a substantial donation to the foundation. Sweetman said if the event is a success there is a good chance that Tim Hortons may take the idea nationally, like their existing Camp Days promotion, creating a sort of cruise day similar to other motorcycle-related chari-

Local author Wayne Grady nominated twice for 2013 Giller Prize By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@theemc.ca

Heritage News - At the age of 65, Wayne Grady says he feels like a kid again. In the midst of a very successful writing career, having already penned 14 works of non-fiction and translated 15 novels, Grady made the Giller Prize long list for not only his own debut novel, Emancipation Day, but also his translation of Quebec author Louis Hamelin’s book October 1970. The former was a true labour of love, which took Grady 15 years to complete. “I feel just like one of those first time novelists out there who are in their 20s,” notes Grady, who lives in Athens, Ontario with his wife, author Merilyn Simonds. “After working on something for so long and that was so hard to get right, to have so many people tell me yes, they really enjoyed it, that the novel works and is good is absolutely amazing. And then to get on the long list, of course, confirmed all of that.” Emancipation Day was inspired by Grady’s real-life experience of discovering his family’s African Canadian heritage for the first time in his late 40s. “My first reaction was fasci-

So when I found out about his history, suddenly I had this whole family I could look up, people I could go talk to and find out more things from. I was really excited.” When he asked his father about his family, however, Grady got a surprising answer: “He said he didn’t know that his family was African Canadian… I didn’t [believe him]. When I did the research and went to Windsor to talk to his family, the ones who were still around, they all knew. They’re all happily members of the black community. My father was 18 when he left Windsor and joined the Navy. He must have known, but I didn’t force him to tell me.” About 15 years ago, Author Wayne Grady Grady began writing a non-fiction book about the story of his parents and his fa- certain times and what their motither’s family. Slowly, it morphed vation was for certain things. So I into a work of fiction that eventu- found I had to make it up, and that

means I’m writing fiction.” Grady will share some of what he learned about writing fiction based on one’s family history during a sold-out Kingston WritersFest workshop Sept. 28. His advice to writers looking to explore such a personal subject: forget they’re family. “You have to write what happens to the character in a way that arises out of the story you’re writing, not out of real life,” he says. “Sometimes the two coincide and that’s great, but if you don’t know what’s going to happen next in the story, that’s a problem for the story. Don’t go to the real life events. That was a mistake I made for the first 10 years of writing this book. Every time I needed a new plot element I would look at my parents’ history…That’s what didn’t work.” As for his other Giller nomination, Grady says that in many ways being able to translate well simply means being able to write well. Knowing the original language is helpful, he remarks, but

not essential. “You can always look things up, or you can ask somebody or call up the writer if he’s still alive. You have to know the language pretty well but you don’t have to be totally, completely, flawlessly bilingual…The two things I think are to be able to hear and reproduce the original writer’s voice and to be able to write well in English.” Now, Grady must wait to hear which of the 13 long list titles will make the Giller short list, to be announced Oct. 8. He remarks that it’s a challenge to hunker down and focus on his new project, a second novel, while surrounded by all this excitement. “I am hopeful, but life has to go on,” he says. “There are a lot of really good books on the long list.” The Giller Prize winner will be announced live on CBC Nov. 5.

Limestone Kabob House: Healthy, fast, fresh food with a pinch of tradition Syed Zaidi, owner of Limestone Kabob House, may not have a culinary background, but he certainly knows what makes a good kabob and its more than just the ingredients. Tradition is the dominant feature throughout the Limestone Kabob House, from the handmade carpets lining the walls to the Boulanee, fried tortilla stuffed with potatoes, green onion and spices. “We want to meld tradition with our food,” says Zaidi, “We emphasize the work that went into producing these carpets and the people that made them. They are producing masterpieces and we

hope to accomplish that with the food as well.” The restaurant offers authentic Afghani and Middle Eastern cuisine and all dishes are made to order with fresh ingredients. Spices and meat, which is all halal, are ground in house and artisan flat bread is baked fresh daily. Soup, salads and even desserts are made from scratch, making the dishes both tasty and healthy. While all of this sounds like the work of a full service fine dining restaurant, the Limestone Kabob House is a fast food restaurant in terms of set up and cost. “We prepare our food with the

same love and care of a fine dining restaurant, but we serve in a quick and easy laid back manner,” adds Zaidi, “Every kabob takes between 10-12 minutes to cook, once ordered. In the meantime, guests can enjoy our complementary Suleimani Chai, black tea with green cardamom.” Once people come to Limestone Kabob House they see the difference that quality and freshness makes. Food is served in a style that brings history and tradition forward in each dish, making the experience authentic and memorable, something to come back for again and again.

Heritage Events - Being clever, quick-witted and incredibly funny has truly paid off for Ryan Stiles. For more than 20 years, the native of Seattle, who spent his formative years in Vancouver, has been entertaining television and live audiences as one of the world’s most prolific and well known improvisational comedians, primarily through his longtime affiliation with the television show Whose Line is it Anyway? His talents as an improv comedian got him noticed by the producer of the original British version of the television show, and after a few seasons of working in London, and having the show become a hit on comedy cable channels back in North America, Stiles landed a role on The Drew Carey Show as Lewis Kinski, one of Drew’s best pals. An America version of Whose Line soon followed with Stiles as a co-producer and Carey as host, propelling Stiles and fellow regulars like Wayne Brady, Greg Proops and Canadian Colin Mochrie to heights of fame and acclaim. A new version of the show runs Tuesday nights on the CW Network. Since 2004 Stiles has also been a semi-recurring regular on the massively popular sitcom Two and a Half Men, as Dr. Herb Melnick. He is also one of the stars and the producer of Whose Live is it Anyway, a stage version of the television show, which is coming to The Grand Theatre in Kingston on Wednesday, Oct. 2, at 7:30 p.m. Not bad for a class clown who grew up idolizing the likes of Tim Conway, Jonathan Winters and Robin Williams. “High school gave me too much freedom. I’d skip classes and goof around in others, and eventually my teachers would have to kick me out. But they were really sorry that had to kick me out because I was so much fun in class. I also grew up with three older brothers, and I think that had a lot to do with becoming a comedian, because you had to be able to give it and take it. And my dad was a funny guy and my brothers are funny guys too,” said Stiles from his home near Bellingham, Washington, where he owns and regularly performs at a 100-seat cabaret-style live improv comedy club called The Upfront. “I spent my formative years in Vancouver, and when I was in high school, I got some fake I.D. made up so I could get into the clubs, and that was back at a time when fake I.D. worked. I just turned 17 when I started in stand up. Comedy wasn’t really as popular as it is today. Not every city had a comedy club like they do now. So you would go into a bar and they would have to shut down the pool tables and things like that. I did a lot of work as an MC in strip clubs, and other places where you don’t really want to be doing comedy, but I think that’s where you learned to be good, to be tough and to think fast on your feet.” Stiles soon gravitated to Second City in Toronto, and then moved out west when Second City set up a venue in Los Angeles. It was while honing his craft as an improviser that he was recruited by Dan Patterson, the producer of Whose Line. The rest is show biz history, as Stiles became a wildly popular regular on the show. The format of the live show is similar to the TV program, but with some significant differences. The television

performers were limited by a relatively small set, so being on a stage such as the one at the Grand allows for more games that involve physicality and movement. The games last longer and are not as regimented as they are for the 23 or so minutes allowed on network prime time television for a half-hour show. And there is more audience interaction, the lifeblood of both the live and television versions. For those unfamiliar with Whose Line and Whose Live, Ryan Stiles (Far Right) with the Whose Live cast. essentially there are a number of games designed to test shoot six shows over two weekends, the various improvisational and laugh-inducing and they can usually get about three Where you always save a bundle! skills of the four performers.

Provincial land use policy under fire over dual dorms at Queen’s editorial@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage Editorial – Veteran MPP and Ontario cabinet minister John Gerretsen appearing before the Ontario Municipal Board to speak out against urban intensification? It’s a somewhat bizarre scenario that may well play out in Kingston in the not too distant future. Long before Gerretsen became Ontario’s current Attorney General, he was once the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing under thenPremier Dalton McGuinty. It was Gerretsen who brought in a policy that continues to help – though, some would say haunt – hundreds of municipal planning decisions across the province, including those in his home riding of Kingston and The Islands. In bureaucratese, it’s known as the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS). The PPS provides local planners with direction on matters of provincial interest relating to land use planning and development. In other words, municipalities would be wise to follow the provincial policy. It generally supports urban intensification though mixed development uses (residential, commercial, institutional), while ensuring longterm recreation space, promoting affordable housing, supporting costeffective development standards and optimizing the use of existing infrastructure (water, sewer) - all in the name of discouraging urban sprawl.

But what would you think if Gerretsen, who brought in the policy statement in 2005, said it was never intended to be used in this manner? As a provincial Liberal cabinet minister and former Kingston mayor, he may be forced to fight the same policy that he introduced. That’s because Gerretsen has openly opposed the $70 million Queen’s dorms in the southwest quadrant of the main campus. He criticized the project at a public meeting on the matter because it’s out of scale with nearby singlefamily homes on the edge of campus, one of which he happens to

live in. There is talk that if city council endorses the dual dorms, which could happen this month, some neighbours may appeal it to the quasi-judicial Ontario Municipal Board. And, it’s not a stretch to suggest that Gerretsen, the home owner and policy maker, may be one of those neighbours seeking to make his case before the board. The MPP may have a point about wanting to clarify the Provincial Policy Statement and the impact it’s having on certain highly-developed neighbourhoods like those around Queen’s and Kingston Gen-

eral Hospital. Was the intent of the PPS to guide long-term planning decisions or to foster sustainable and healthy intensification in the urban core? Perhaps, the answer is ‘yes’ to both. But it sounds like the PPS needs to be revisited and updated to give residents more confidence and protection from the noise, traffic, shadowing and scale of future developments, especially when the former minister who drafted the policy statement voices alarm over the way it’s being applied in his own backyard.

These are weighty issues that require the expertise of planning staff to sift through and apply to current zoning applications. The PPS is a blueprint, though certainly not the only measuring stick, to guide municipal leaders, planners and the development community. However, critics of the policy statement say it’s giving developers and planners too much leeway to allow big developments in small spaces. Such may be the case with Queen’s University and its plan to erect two large student residences on campus: a nine-storey, 272-bed dorm at 28 Albert St., and a five storey, 274bed dorm at 222 Stuart St. As with many planning applications that ultimately cross the desks of city councillors, the PPS is often quoted as a key justification for bending the height, zoning and massing rules to accommodate developments in the central part of Kingston. City planning staff are now on record as supporting the Queen’s dorms based, in part, on what the good PPS book has to say.

Perry family has best showing yet at Kingston Fall Fair By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@theemc.ca

Heritage News - Local farmer Dave Perry has been showing cattle at the Kingston Fall Fair since he was 12 years old. Now his own children, including Justin, 23, Kaitlyn, 11, Grant, 10 and Mason, 7, join him in the ring each year, proudly showing the cattle and pigs they have raised themselves. The 2013 fair was the family’s best ever, with the Perrys bringing in a total of eight banners for their black Maine-Anjou cattle. Among the prize animals: a 2,400 pound bull named Glacier, shown by Dave, which took Grand Champion Bull, and an eightmonth-old calf, shown by Kaitlyn, which took a number of awards including Grand Champion – a prize that recognizes the best out of all animals in the 4H association. “It was pretty special to see her win,” Perry says. “I don’t know if she realizes yet that you might go through all your years of 4H and never do that again. It just depends on your animal and the other animals you’re competing against.” It feels great, he notes, to have been so successful. “It makes it feel worthwhile. You put a lot of effort into it and a lot of expense too, feeding the animals and getting them up to show condition.” The first step is to halter-break cattle at a young age, which means getting them used to having a halter on by tying them up to something secure. “If you just put a halter on it and take it in your hands, it’s going to drag

you around and probably get away,” Perry explains. “So you try to let it get used to that a few times, and then maybe two or three days later you untie it and just move it a little bit - six or eight feet - and if it doesn’t try to get away go a little further [etc.].” What an animal is given to eat is another important factor. Perry recommends feeding cattle a mixture of corn, barley, good quality oats and grass or hay, depending on the time of year. “They have to have proper feed to be filled out properly,” Perry says. “If you have a thin animal, it doesn’t look very good to the public and you’re not really showing off your animal properly. And then they have to be washed and cleaned up.” While he coaches his children regarding how to raise their animals, they do most of the work when it comes to caring for the cattle and swine and preparing them for the fair. Such tasks, Perry notes, are great for kids to get involved with: “They learn how to care for an animal. They learn work skills and scheduling. And it keeps them busy, which keeps them from getting into trouble.” Indeed, he remarks that participating in 4H activities did wonders for his niece, Shelby, who came to stay at the Perrys’ farm in Harrowsmith for the summer after getting into some Internet-related trouble at home in Fredericton. “I told them if she’s coming up she’s leaving her phone at home,” Perry says. “She didn’t think she could live without it, but she did

She unloaded straw, square bails, put them on the elevator, and she worked in our store [Local Family Farms in Verona] two days a week. Oh, she was just a great help.” And the feeling was mutual. “She just sent us a letter last week saying it changed her life,” Perry

says. “It was a good experience for her.” From a farmer’s perspective, he remarks that the livestock shows are also an excellent way to exchange ideas and demonstrate to others what has worked in the past. “Any beef animal can be used for beef, but they don’t all have the same genetics or confirmation,” Perry says.

“It’s just taking pride in your animals and showing people what you have and what they could have.” To inquire about or purchase their beef, pork or turkey, contact Perry Maine-Anjou farms at 613-374-3663.

A DIVISION OF

Curling Day in Kingston By: Mandy Marciniak Reporter

EMC Events –Curling - it may not be a sport that many think of as a first choice when it comes to winter sports, but it’s definitely gaining popularity. From the Olympics to major tournaments that appear on television, curling is becoming more and more visible – and the Greater Kingston and Area Curling Association(GKACA) is hoping to take advantage of that popularity and grow the sport in Kingston, too. There are five sport clubs in the Kingston area that support curling: the Royal Kingston Curling Club, which is the biggest, Cataraqui Golf and Country Club, Garrison Golf and Curling Club, Napanee and District Curling Club and Gananoque Curling Club. In 2011, in response to the Scottties Tournament of Hearts coming to Kingston, these five clubs formed to create the GKACA. “We had to form the association to run the various events that surrounded the tournament,” explained Doug Wark, a member of the GKACA and President of the Gananoque Curling Club. “We also had to have a host association that would benefit from the tournament. There is a lot of money that is raised through goodwill for the Scotties championship.” With these funds, the GKACA developed some initiatives for moving forward and one of the main initiatives was expanding the

curling programming. “We really want to make people aware of the sport and offer trials and hopefully get them joining and involved,” explained Wark, “We created a new intramural league for junior curling athletes to get them out in the sport and hopefully successful in the sport too. We want Kingston to be able to produce some top quality curlers going forward.” Along with these new initiatives comes the return of Curling Day in Kingston. On September 28, members of the community are invited to the Royal Kingston Curling Club for a day of fun and an opportunity to try curling for free. “The purpose is obviously to get people out to try curling and we wanted it to be free and fun. If people have ever wanted to try it before, now is their chance. Each of the five clubs will have a booth and representatives there with information about membership rates and program information” added Wark, “If people want to join they can find out which club will suit their needs best. Also, every club will host their own open houses in addition to this event. So individually they will host events where people can come out and try curling at the specific places for free, with no equipment rentals and really get a taste of the sport.” The event is designed to generate some new interest in the sport in Kingston. Curling is a sport that many people would never try ordi-

The Greater Kingston and Area Curling Association hopes to bring in new members through a free curling day on September 28. narily, but also one that they may enjoy if given the chance, added Wark. “Curling is really a sport that people need to try before they know if they like it. Many people don’t know that much about the sport and they don’t know if they could do it. They may also be fearful of

it because it is so different. So we try to break it down for people and keep it fun and light and really showcase how great the sport can be.” Curling Day in Kingston is taking place Sept. 28 at the Royal Kingston Curling Club, 130 Days Road, from 1 - 5 p.m.

But it is something. I felt like I didn’t have as much freedom as a front woman because I was so concerned about what pedals I pressing, all the guitar riffs, and trying to sing at the same time, trying to engage the audience as much as possible. I felt I was spreading myself a little too thin for our live shows. And once we went into the studio we felt it was a natural transition for Liam to go back to guitar. So we had two guitars for every song.” A session drummer was used in the recording studio when The Balconies recorded 10 songs for a new album, Fast Motions, which will be released the first week of January. “I am focusing more on rhythm guitar, but I still have some fun riffs that I like to play. I find this way I am even more of a front woman and I am able to focus more on just engaging the audience and maintaining that intensity. But I will always play guitar.

Heritage Entertainment - There are very few bands in Canada creating the kind of buzz that The Balconies have been generating over the past couple of years. Originally from Ottawa, now based out of Toronto, the alternative-rock band has been a whirling dervish of activity, crisscrossing the country numerous times, touring Europe, creating legions of new fans, garnering gushing reviews and developing an unstoppably positive momentum. Regular visitors to Kingston, The Balconies return to The Mansion for a show on Thursday, Oct. 3, and will be introducing a new band member and some new songs into the show. Recently, the band moved from being a trio to a four-piece outfit, with the addition of drummer Theo McGibbon. Original drummer and band co-founder Liam Jaeger has moved to playing lead guitar, allowing vocalist Jacquie Neville to concentrate on being one of the most charismatic front women on the scene. Her brother Steven is the band’s bassist. “People thought, ‘oh my God, did Liam get kicked out of the band?’ He was our drummer, but is primarily a guitarist. We when we started the band, I thought it would be a great way to challenge myself to be the only guitarist, as well as the front woman. And he would challenge himself by getting behind the drum kit,” said Jacquie Neville from her home in Toronto, as the band

emanating from so-called ‘active rock’ radio. “We didn’t consciously try to avoid that formula; it’s just the way the songs came out. I grew up listening to so much music. I started playing classical violin at a very young age, and I found I developed my ear for melody and harmony when I was young as well. And something happened when I picked up the guitar and I taught myself to play; melodies just started pouring out of me,” said Neville. “I am not saying it’s because of classical music, and I am not saying I am a better musician than the next person, but I am saying for me personally I learned a lot from it. I also listened to punk music growing up, and classic rock and pop. I loved Michael Jackson, Tina Turner and Whitney Houston. Because I listened to such a vast variety of music as a kid, it just comes naturally for me to take little bits and pieces of everything I like, that I listen to.” But Neville was adamant that the other band members contribute equally to the process. She may come up with the initial riff or melody or vocal line, but Jaeger, her brother and now McGibbon work on the song structure, harmonies and arrangements together. “It’s a collaborative effort, that’s why we are The Balconies and no the Jacquie Neville Band. I really like working as part of a team, and allowing everyone to have an equal voice,” she said. The lead-off single, Slo, has al-

ready been released and is generating rave reviews and tons of interest from press and social media. One voice that was added to the mix was that of Arnold Lanni, who produced Fast Motions. The former frontman and primary songwriter for the popular 1980s Canadian pop band Frozen Ghost, Lanni has carved out a career as a prolific and successful producer, engineer and songwriter. Having the chance to work with someone as profoundly talented and prolific as Lanni was something The Balconies relished. “I was always hesitant about working with an outside producer because I have heard nightmarish stories from musician friends about how they will try to change you into something you are not, or they just don’t understand you and you don’t work well together,” she said. “But right off the bat Arnold understood where we stood, where we were at. He said, ‘I am not going to trying to make you sound like anything that you are not. I am just trying to take what you sound like and make it even better.’ And I feel that he did a great job of making our ideas come through that much more clearly: just having that extra set of ears, especially experienced ones, helps. And his is an amazing songwriter and has a really impressive pedigree, so we were really excited to be able to work with him on a full album.” For more information on the band, visit http://thebalconies.ca.

King’s Town Players present Glengarry Glen Ross By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@theemc.ca

Heritage Entertainment - A cutthroat real estate sales office might seem as far removed as one can get from a local community theatre group, but the King’s Town Players are bridging that gap with their first play of the 2013-2014 season. “One question for me is always: ‘Why theatre in general?,’” says Will Britton, director of the Players’ latest production, David Mamet’s Glengarry Glen Ross. “Why see something live as opposed to in your comfortable living room with your quality surround sound and special effects and stuff? This is a play to me that is just so visceral and raw. Such a glimpse into what’s going on in this chunk of life.” Being able to explore unpleasant aspects of life you’d rather avoid in reality is another benefit. Britton remarks that it’s interesting – enjoyable even - to be able to address some of humanity’s more unsavoury traits through theatre. And Glengarry Glen Ross provides ample opportunities to do so. “No edits, no apologies,” Britton says, explaining the attitude he is taking toward this production. “[The play] is very, very disturbing in a great many ways, but to me that’s the point. Completely reprehensible behaviour takes place on stage, but I would rather it be on stage and discuss it that way than actually come across these people in real life.”

As it turned out, a lot of the city’s finest actors wanted to explore these realms, too. “The audition process for this show was phenomenal,” Britton says. “I’ve never had a turnout quite like this, between the calibre of talent and the type of people that came out. It was nice not just to cast on these are seven people that can do it. I had a great number of people that could do it.” There were so many strong choices, Britton got to the point where he could take into consideration more intricate details, such as physical appearance and quality of voice. “Quality of voice was hugely important because this is so dialogue heavy,” he explains. “There’s not a lot of action. It’s a lot of listening to people talk, watching people talk, so having different voice qualities and stuff was quite important.” Mike Bullett plays Ricky Roma, a cocky, confident real estate agent who is currently the number one salesman in the office. “It’s all about trying to get into the mindset of someone who sells things,” says Bullett, who in real life teaches drama at Bayridge Secondary School. “As we’ve been going through the rehearsal process, I’m realizing that Ricky is always on the make. He’s always playing people. Although he can sometimes come across like a good guy, he’s doing it for himself. He’s always selling people out.” Bullett notes that it’s important to him as a drama teacher to practice his

craft in the community. “I don’t know how someone can teach about theatre and teach about acting if they aren’t a working artist. You take those experiences you have and you can use them in the classroom because you just recently did a play. You know the problems kids have when they go to memorize and can give them techniques.” All the same, Bullett’s not sure he’ll be encouraging his younger students to come see this particular The Kings Town Players present Glengarry Glen Ross October 1-12 production. “I think it’s a here,” he says of his character. “It’s write for the stage. It’s meant to be wonderful play and an amazing script, like he just got booted out of 1949 and performed. There’s such a difference but it’s for mature audiences,” he says, into 1983, and the rules of the game between reading it and seeing it.” noting the language and the dark na- are truly changed.

Gourmet coffee is available through Keurig K-Cups If you’re like most Canadian adults, then the first cup of coffee you have in the morning is important. Having a great cup of coffee helps to get most people started on the right foot and sets the tone for the day ahead. It also helps to wake people up, get them thinking clearly, and help them get organized and out the door on time. While there are many different types of coffee to choose from, many store brands offer generic coffee that can be bland and lack excitement. Fortunately, gourmet coffee is available through single serve Keurig and Tassimo brands. Coffee Trends based in Kingston, Ontario is a locally run retail store that specializes in gourmet coffees made through Keurig K-Cup and Tassimo coffee machines.

“It felt great. Not being drafted but still earning an invitation to camp and just seeing the jersey with your name on the back you think, ‘hey, the dream is possible.’” The Jets coaching staff told Dupuy they liked his skating ability and tasked him to come back to the OHL and the Frontenacs and be an impact player both on and off the ice. “They said to work on all the little things as well as working on getting bigger and stronger – get better at everything to bring my game to the next level.

Scratch proved her worth as a house cat Mary Cook Columnist editorial@theheritageemc.ca

Lifestyle - As far as Mother was concerned, there were no “ifs, ands, or buts” about it when it came to having pets in the house. They belonged in the barn, and that’s all there was to it. The barn cats had litters; it seemed to me back then, every time the weather changed. And every time a new

batch of kittens came on the scene, I begged Mother to let me keep at least one in the house for a pet. I promised I would look after it. It would never wander through the rooms, and I would feed it myself, so there would be no spots on the kitchen floor, which Mother kept as clean as a whistle. “No cats in the house,” she would say again! So I would have to play with them in the barns, where they were allowed to wander freely, some in the cow byre, some in the stable, and often one or two in where Father kept the sheep. I would make sure they all had fresh milk every day, and of course, I gave them all names. My brother Emerson said giving barn cats names was just about the craziest idea he ever heard of...especially

would have to take it outside to “do its business”, and it would only be in the house until it was able to fend for itself out in the barn. I was so happy, and that night I printed in my diary that for the first time ever, I was allowed to have a baby kitten in the house! I called it Scratch...because it loved to scratch on the side of the cardboard box which was its home through the night. It grew and flourished. How Scratch grew! Every day Mother would warn me that soon it would have to join the other cats in the barn. The litter was born early in the fall, and as the nights got colder, I was eternally grateful that Scratch was in a warm spot to sleep. Just before I went to bed every night I took Scratch outside and then put her into the cardboard box. She was growing so fast with my tender love and care that soon she would outgrow her night bed. Then one morning, even before I was out of bed, I heard Mother let a scream out of her that I was sure

when there were so many. I paid him no heed! They came in all colours, but mostly they were grey or black with white spots. And then one batch produced one that was golden brown with white around its neck, and a pure white tail. Emerson said it looked like its mother had been scared by a fox, whatever that meant. To me it was the most beautiful kitten I had ever seen, but it didn’t look like its mother had much love for it. To me it always seemed to be pushed aside, and away from the other kittens. And it got thinner and thinner. Emerson said it wasn’t long for this world and the best thing that could happen to it was to put it in a grain sack and take to the Bonnechere! Needless to say that sent me into fits of crying and I begged Mother to let me keep it in the house until it had grown a bit. I even promised to knit an extra dishcloth without being asked, a task I likened to cleaning the outhouse! Finally, Mother relented. It would have to be kept in a box at night. I

could be heard across the twentyacre field. I tore downstairs, not knowing what to expect. And there was Scratch sound asleep outside the box, and beside her, half mutilated, were two very dead mice! Now, if there was anything Mother hated more than the common housefly or pet animals in the house, it was a mouse! She was sure they carried germs. It wasn’t so much that she was afraid of them; it was just that she thought they were just about the dirtiest critters on earth! And there was little hope of keeping them out of the house, in spite of the countless traps spaced around the floor. Well, it was obvious how the mice had come to meet their maker. Scratch had done them in, that was obvious. And that’s what changed Mother’s mind about having a pet in the house! Scratch, as long as she was ‘earning her keep’, was allowed to spend the nights in the cardboard box in the kitchen. She spent most of the winter there, that year. But the day came when Scratch herself wanted to be out in the barns. She had grown full size. She remained the only cat with the odd colouring, and she sneaked around unheard and ignored the other cats completely. And when I saw that she much preferred the hen house over the cow byre, I wondered if there was more truth than poetry to what Emerson claimed...maybe there was a bit of fox-blood running through her veins.

KFPL expands trial French programming to adult groups By: Mandy Marciniak Reporter

EMC News – This fall, the Kingston and Frontenac Public Library (KFPL) expanded their adult programs to include a Books and Beers club, a Books and Beans club and now a new club as part of the Biblio Francaise program. The Book Club with a Difference series will start a French addition to the program starting on Saturday, Sept. 21 at 1:30 pm, with subsequent get-togethers on Oct. 19, Nov. 16 and Dec. 14. “We’ve been gradually expanding our adult programming,” said Kimberly Sutherland Mills,

Manager of Programming and Outreach at the library, “We’ve always offered adult programs, but we’ve been slowly expanding them over the years. The programs are currently all in English, so this is an opportunity to take the French program and expand it to adults as well and really get it our there. We want to make sure we are covering all bases.” The French programs come as a result of a grant from the province as part of the Cultural Strategic Investment Fund (CSIF), which KFPL received in order to start these pilot projects. The programs began for children only, but they have now expanded to adults.

Matthew Good

with Gentlemen Husbands

fall, Books and Beers and Books and Beans, generated a huge amount of response in their first week and Mills hopes to see that carry over. “We saw 48 people come out to those groups within a week of their startup, so we are hoping that there will be the same kind of interest with A Book Club with a Difference and the French aspect of it. There is no registration and no obligation to attend the sessions. People can drop in when it suits their schedule. New people are welcome every week. There also isn’t a set title to discuss. Everyone can bring what they are reading and talk about it, whether it is poetry, fiction or a cookbook, just come and talk about it.” In addition to the book club, there will also be a monthly French film club that will launch at the libraries. Film aficionados, both teens and adults, can enjoy free Saturday afternoon screen-

ings of French films each month at the Calvin Park branch. The first Cinema Francais screening will be held on Saturday, Oct. 5 at 1 p.m., followed by screenings on Nov. 2 and 30. The French pilot program itself wraps up in April and at that point KFPL will assess whether or not French programming is a viable option for them going forward. Mills hopes that the interest is there and urges people to come out. “The groups are a lot of fun. The feedback we have received from the English programs is that people are loving the chance to talk to other people about books and socialize with people who love books and meet new people, that they may not meet otherwise.” For more information on these programs and many others offered by KFPL, visit their events calendar at www.events.kfpl.ca.

“We used the grant money to hire a part-time staff member that is fully bilingual who could offer French programming. We also used the funding to purchase French materials for the collection, more than we would normally be able to purchase in an individual year,” added Mills. “We started the program in March of 2013 with a big March Break event for children. Since then we’ve run spring and fall events for young children and a variety of different programs throughout the summer as well. We had requests from the community for adult programs as well.” Adult programs were always part of the plan and hopefully the result will be positive.

Enchanting and fascinating people….and their world

Nurturing the art of dance Days and has been involved since its inception. The concept started in Quebec in 1997 with Journées de la culture weekend. In 2007, The Canadian Arts Summit launched a feasibility study to assess the possibility of supporting an annual cross-country celebration of arts and culture. By 2008, a collaboration with Culture pour tous, producer of Journées de la culture, developed to facilitate a similar strategy for events across Canada. The Canadian Council for the Arts and The Banff Centre in Alberta came on board as key participants. Culture Days is now held annually in cities throughout Canada. There’s lots going on in Kingston and Ebon Gage is thrilled that it’s become a popular event. He opens the doors of the Kingston School of Dance for the full three dates of Culture Days, held this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. On Friday night from 8:30 to 9:30 anyone can drop into the Kingston

School of Dance for a free class in Salsa. “Last year we even had families bring their little ones,” said Ebon. “We had a whole culture mix and lots of support from the Latino community. People can just walk in the door and I start teaching them.” On Saturday, it’s a multimedia day. People can view dance classes in progress. Artists are invited to bring in their sketch books from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. They can bring watercolors, pastels, pens, whatever they need. The dance school will provide chairs, artists bring their own easels and tools. “The dancers will be in motion, so the artists will be watching the subjects move through space,” said Gage. “Last year, a lot of people were watching from outside on Princess Street. They saw the dancers and they got to see what the artists’ visions of bodies in movement looked like.” From 2 until 5 p.m., the Kingston School of Dance is involved in the Kingston-wide Amazing Race. “Participants have to sign up for the race, and one of the stops will be the Kingston School of Dance,” said Gage. “I will teach them a line dance. Before they go to the next event, they have to do a series of line dances before I give them their next clue.” On Sunday, Sept. 30, KSD will host live animation in the dance studio from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. OPEN 11AM-5PM SEVEN DAYS A WEEK 613-373-1133

Heritage Lifestyle - Ebon Gage, the Artistic Director of the Kingston School of Dance (KSD), is always looking for innovative ways to teach and find expression through dance. Since starting this column in 2011, I’ve never focused on the same person twice. This week, I’ll break that trend. My first column on February 17, 2011 featured Ebon Gage. It’s time to take another look at this passionate dance teacher and artistic director. You’ll have an opportunity to experience his work during Culture Days this weekend. He’s always in sync with his students, yet at the same time one dance-step ahead. “I want to actually get the dancers to go in different areas and think about how can I create theatre without being on a stage,” he said. “We don’t need many props. We need to use our own imaginations and creativity. Imagine juxtaposing something like tai chi with dance art?” Gage strongly supports Culture

Indigenous Studies minor launches at Queen’s a three-year stand-alone degree. Courses will be from a variety of areas under the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures, including politics, history, English literature, development studies and others. The university’s website indicates a six per cent increase in applications from self-identified Aboriginal students for the 2013-2014 year. There was also a 28 per cent increase in offers and a 48 per cent increase in acceptances. Janice Hill, director of the Four

By Kelly Reid Reporter

Heritage News - On Sept. 17, students and faculty members of Queen’s University, as well as community partners, joined together at the Four Directions Aboriginal Student Centre to celebrate the launch of the new Indigenous Studies minor under the Faculty of Arts and Science. The minor can be paired with any major concentration, or can be

Directions Centre and member of the Mohawk Nation, opened the ceremony by welcoming visiting elder Wanda Whitebird. Whitebird opened the proceedings with a prayer and a smudge. “As we begin something, we always acknowledge our elders,” she said to the group. “Today we fulfill a dream of someone that is back there,” she added, gesturing toward the past. The centre then welcomed Marlene Brant-Castellano, a council

elder and co-chair of the Aboriginal Council. Castellano herself is a Queen’s alumnus, with a Masters degree in Social Science. Her brother, Dr. Clare Brant, became the first psychiatrist of Indigenous descent after he graduated from Queen’s School of Medicine in 1965. Both are from the nearby Tyendinaga region and Mohawk Nation. “I am part of a wave that was building and has now crested,” said Brant-Castellano. “It truly is remarkable to see. For many years,

First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people have not felt at home in institutions of higher learning,” she went on. “We are there. We are no longer ‘Reservation Indians.’ We are reclaiming the territory of the mind.” Brant-Castellano then thanked the students involved for their support in getting the Indigenous Studies program off the ground. “I want to really acknowledge the leadership of the studies,” she said. “They are demanding the kind of education that is appropriate for the 21st Century.” Dr. Gordon Smith, the Associate Dean of Arts and Science, was also present at the ceremony. “On behalf of Arts and Sciences,” he said, “this is not a small step for Queen’s. It’s hugely important.” Dr. Smith explained that the program had been a year in the process of coming to fruition. “And it’s just the first step,” he said. Director Janice Hill then closed with final words: “Queen’s is a university that graduates leaders in policy that have tremendous influence in this country and beyond. We do them a disservice if they leave here without knowledge of the Aboriginal experience in Canada.” In the final words of another attendee, “It was about time.”

dancers, they’ll be able to make a livelihood here,” he said. “So they won’t have to leave Kingston. As I’ve gotten older, I think I’ve become more nurturing with students. It’s about being the teacher, the guide, the person who gives encouragement in class. It’s really about creating opportunities. If I can give them guidance and direct them to use their best attributes, whether it be in modern, contemporary or ballet, then I’ve done my job as an artistic director.” Dance, explained Ebon, is about freedom of expression. “I see the joy on kids’ faces,” he said. “They move without inhibition. It’s not about coloring within the lines. There’s a freedom in a childlike mentality. They’re going with their own innate abilities. And they’re going beyond where they thought their boundaries and skills reached.” He’s in his tenth year with the school, which means he’s seeing a whole new generation of dancers. “This is the year that every child I’ve been teaching for ten years has graduated from the school,” he said. “Now I’m seeing a whole new set of senior students moving through the ranks. It’s really nice to see these dancers come up and contribute to what takes place in the school. We really have some very talented dancers right now. Some of them can be triple threats (dance, sing, act). Some are going to be brilliant choreographers because they’re really focused. I see a much more focused group of teenagers than I’ve seen in the past.” He explained that his current senior dancers are willing to expose themselves to more art forms, especially to skills like vocals and theatre. “They’re not afraid to take chances in other dance forms or arts,” said Gage. “We are still a ballet school first, but I’m seeing our contemporary becoming very strong because of the classical background.

It’s really nice to have major dance companies coming through Kingston and the Grand Theatre and have workshops for our dancers to participate with these professionals.” He said the move back to the Tett Centre will increase professional opportunities for dancers at the Kingston School of Dance. “There’s going to be an opportunity for younger dancers and people coming in and giving a voice to what’s happening in the rest of the world, the evolution that’s taking place in dance. I’m trying to lead the school and its next generation of dancers and dance caregivers. I want to constantly bring in new ideas to the school so it can grow.” Keep your eyes on this artistic director and the Kingston School of Dance. That’s the future we’re looking at.

When thinking about preparing a Will most individuals divide their estate among their immediate family. They want to be sure that they can provide for the needs of their loved ones. What people may not consider are the possible tax consequences to this decision. Individuals often worry that the tax burden placed on their estate will prevent their children from inheriting all that they should. Some feel it’s not their problem—“the children will work it out.” Consider this question, “If you had a choice to give a portion of your estate to the government in tax or leave a gift to charity”, which one would you prefer? The answer is probably obvious, but it might still be difficult to know how to make the gift a reality. One creative way to give to charity is to include a ‘Charity Child’ in your Will planning. Including a ‘Charity Child’ could be of real benefit to those who are interested in providing for their loved ones, leaving a legacy to their community and limiting their estate to the exposure of estate taxes*.

By placing a charitable bequest in one’s Will, the estate will benefit and receive a charitable tax receipt for the gift. This will help to offset any taxes payable to the government. The children will still receive the portion of the estate generously left for them as well. What is also very important is the children can celebrate their parents’ legacy of making a difference in the community through their philanthropic dreams. As a society we are wealthy beyond measure and one of the greatest gifts we can give to our children is the gift of philanthropy and a legacy of helping others. How do you want to be remembered? Please consider making a difference in the lives that follow. * This is a general source of information only.

Do you have a Charity Child?

Here’s an example: Through careful estate planning a family with three children divides their estate into quarters, leaving the last quarter to go to not-for-profits or charities that have touched their lives. Upon the passing of both parents, the Will outlines that each child will receive one quarter of their parent’s estate. The fourth quarter is dedicated to the Charity Child and directed to the causes that are dearest to their hearts.

Kingston WritersFest: A flamin’ good time Kitchen Kreations ladydinesalot@gmail.com

Heritage Lifestyle - Kingston WritersFest kicks off its fifth season on Sept. 25 at the Holiday Inn Waterfront located downtown. My plans include several workshops and lectures. In fact, I started a week early with Jeanette Walls at Queen’s University. She is author of the bestselling memoir The Glass Castle. The book chronicles her nomadic childhood, which at times included homelessness. It was a great way to begin my literary feast prior to the festival launch. The year’s festival welcomes

sessions across a variety of genres and topics, including workshops on writing for the teen scene, tools for promoting your writing, storytelling, travel writing, true crime, screen writing and more. Not to mention food events, such as the Book Lovers Lunch and Tea and Literary Treats. According to the WritersFest website, over 300 published authors live in our region and several writers of international stature make their home here. The festival began in 2006, and has grown substantially over the years. Now, is now recognized alongside some of the best literary celebrations in Canada. Internationally celebrated Canadian author, environmental activist and inventor Margaret Atwood returns this year. In 2009,

she opened the Kingston WritersFest and this year helps to mark the fifth anniversary. She is author of more than 40 books of fiction, poetry and critical essays. The festival’s objective is to celebrate literacy in every genre and stimulate the creative impulse that contributes so much to the cultural vibrancy of our city. Kingston loves to read and write. In fact, first Canadian cookbook, The Cook Not Mad, was published here in Kingston in 1831. It outlined the art of curing meats and vegetables, and offered miscellaneous important information for housekeepers and general directions for cooking. I’ve enjoyed many events at WritersFest over the years, but the 2010 event named after this

earlier publication, the Cook Not Mad Sunday Brunch was the most memorable, not just for the engaging speaker, but also the activity surrounding it. I love cookbooks. The art and design that go into a well thought out cookbook are magic. I equally love the experience of eating. WritersFest offered an event about food, a cookbook author combined with a delicious brunch, and I was a moth to the flame. The event was held on the last day of the festival. Volunteers were beaming and relishing the success of another year, yet exhausted over the intense daily sessions. Sunday brunch was a flaming good time in more ways than one. We had settled into our tables and been served our first course. The cookbook author was being interviewed on the main stage. We enjoyed her tales of kitchen creations and her love of cooking. Later in the session, we lined up for our meal. The crowd was full of giggles and chatter, the coffee and breakfast aromas tweaking our noses. The chef had once again outdone himself. The food looked delectably scrumptious. Hungry guests lined up for the exciting omelet bar. I was midsentence, explaining my long-time dream of writing my own cookbook, when suddenly an alarm

sounded. The room full of foodies looked stunned when firefighters burst through the door. They stood lined up for their omelets, mouths gapping. All of a sudden, the room exploded into laughter. Writers are known for their sense of humor. Such a scene could only appear funny to a group of quickwitted storytellers. All were in good spirits, except maybe the firefighters, who were not hailed for their heroic arrival. They looked a little wounded. No flames or fire existed, but every precaution was taken to ensure all guests were okay and the area was safe. The event never missed a beat. Thanks to the staff at the Holiday Inn and the Kingston Writersfest volunteers, a scrumptious breakfast was provided. The experience still lives on as one of the many flamin’ good times at the annual festival. Join in the fun. It’s a good opportunity to connect with published authors, budding writers or those who simply love to read.

Here’s to a great Harvest!

Daytripper Say “Cheese!”

Heritage Lifestyle - When I first heard people talking about Black River Cheese, I thought they were a bit curdled in the head. “You can taste the difference.” “It’s because of the cows,” or “It’s because of the Quinte water the cows drink.” Yeah, right. I’m a skeptic at my core, but several years ago I was converted to the view that the superior taste of Black River Cheese is observable. Not sure about the cow stories. Whatever the reason, Black River Cheese is a delectable delight. There are many locations where you can get it locally, or the factory is a short drive away in Prince Edward County. It’s a lovely outing at any time of the year. The Black River Cheese Company started in 1901. The factory store was added in the 1970s. The company was formed as a cooperative by local farmers after the U.S. instituted a free trade barrier, the McKinley Tariff of 1900, which devastated the barley and malt exports from the Quinte region. The Prince Edward County dairy industry expanded rapidly as farmers looked for new income sources. Local shipping ports near Milford allowed the company to meet a high demand for quality cheese in Great Britain.

Places to explore and things to experience

In its early days, the factory operated from early spring, when pasture for local cows became available, until the end of pasture season, usually the end of October. Black River Cheese, named after the river where the factory is located, has over 25 kinds of cheese including jalapeno, Brad Reid is the chief cheesemaker at Black River hot pepper and sal- Cheese in Milford, Prince Edward County.

I prefer my cheese basic and Cheese is now the exception. On the unflavored by anything but it’s own other hand, it is typical of what’s great natural taste. about Prince Edward County.

Recently, visitors from Australia a centennial plaque on a large granite and New York City were in the shop rock beside the main building. when I visited. A few months later, on October 9, a “This is what makes your country devastating fire destroyed everything. great,” said Australian Malcolm Taylor, The factory and storage area, includan ice cream cone in one hand and a bag ing all the cheese that had spent five to of curds in the other. “Little companies nine years in a maturing process, were can make a go of it and produce some- gone. thing that tastes this good.” Over the next year, the factory was

rebuilt and reopened in 2002. “A lot of cheese companies use enhancers to speed the aging process.,” said Brad Reid, Black River’s chief cheesemaker. “We do everything the natural way. Our three year old cheese is aged three years. We started everything back up from scratch in 2002.” Reid comes from a cheesemaking family. “My dad and brother are both cheesemakers,” he said. He thinks the quality and appeal of the company’s cheese has a lot to do with the location and the old-fashioned way of making cheese. He explained the taste of Black River Cheese products. “Our cheese is unique and so good because of the county milk,” he said. “We use local dairy products. There’s lots of history to this place. A whole gamut of things comes together for the taste. We’re still making cheese here the way my father did. We mix and stir by hand. There is lots of hands-on work, which gives us better quality control than when everything is flowing through pipes and tubes. In 1977, when Reid was 14 years old, his first summer job was in a cheese factory. “I eventually worked myself out of a job because I like doing it the old traditional way, by hand,” he said. “All the small factories that did it that way closed down.” Black River is the only remaining cheese factory in the region. “The hands-on approach is labor intensive, there’s no doubt about that, but it’s rewarding,” said Reid. “When Black River reopened in 2002 after the fire, I was successful at getting the cheesemaker job.”

The company has another perk. In this era when consumer awareness is increasing and there’s a demand for healthy foods without an endless list of artificial ingredients, Black River Cheese provides a product that’s healthy (and local). In 2011, the company’s 110th anniversary year, they won the award for the best mild cheddar in Canada at the Canadian Cheese Grand Prix Event. Their medium cheddar was a finalist in its own category. In the early days of the region’s agriculture, when there were difficult times, the local farmers pulled together. They did it again after the 2001 fire and the company is thriving and open for visits. Business is booming, for good reason. You can taste the difference in their cheese. Directions: The Black River Cheese Company is located at 913 Country Road 13 in Milford, south of Picton. Take Bath Road west until it becomes Highway 33. It ends at Adolphustown where you can cross on the free Glenora ferry. Pick up Highway 33 on the other side. It becomes Bridge Street at Picton. Turn left at Union Street. It becomes County Road 8. Take the right bend onto County Road 17. Turn left at County Road 16. It will take you directly to County Road 13 and the Black River Cheese Factory.

Crash Karma returns to Kingston with rocking new album Jim Barber Staff Writer

Heritage Entertainment - It’s always great when you can get out on the road with your close pals and travel the country, create and perform cool original music, have fun and entertain enthusiastic rock and roll audiences. If you can do that and also sell a significant number of albums, create some social media buzz, make a good living, and add to your already popular and critical acclaim as artists – all’s the better. Such is the life for Crash Karma as the quartet of Canadian alternative rock royalty embarks on a national tour in support of their second album, Rock Musique Deluxe. With a hit single and a host of well-attended and powerful performances over the summer, the five-year-old band is hitting its stride as it rolls into Kingston for a return date at The Merchant Tap House, on Friday, Sept. 27. Crash Karma is comprised of vocalist Edwin, formerly of I Mother Earth; ex-Our Lady Peace guitarist Mike Turner; Amir Epstein, a well-respected bassist, songwriter and producer on the Toronto scene, previously with the band Zygote, and drummer

Jeff Burrows, who is also the skin basher for the recently reunited 1990s Canadian rock icons, The Tea Party. Rock Musique Deluxe came out in early August and Edwin said he has been pleased with the reception it has received, but in the current age of downloading and rampant piracy of recorded music it’s harder to gauge the success of an album on pure statistics alone. “The Facebook and Twitter response was great for the first single, and people have been telling their friends about it. But, honestly, there are so many factors at play these days. Sure it’s about record sales because the record companies want to make money and that’s always been a standard by which we have measured musical success. But record sales, as we all know, have dropped immensely. So it’s also about how many people you can pull out to your shows, and it’s downloads, and it’s Facebook likes – it’s all of that combined,” he said in an interview conducted by the author in the summer. “If you didn’t sell a lot of records but still packed every show you did with devoted fans, then nobody would consider that not a success. Really, that’s where most bands make money, from their live performances

and merchandise sold at those shows. Nobody makes money off of record sales unless you’ve sold like a million copies which very few bands, especially in Canada, do these days. For me personally, it’s attendance at shows that matters and the response of the fans at those shows.” And Crash Karma has been evoking positive, frenetic and energetic responses from audiences ever since the foursome got together in 2008. The genesis for the project was simply a desire for Edwin and Epstein to want together and work with Turner. When the project seemed like a reality, they all thought Burrows would be the perfect addition to the mix. The self-titled debut album was a rock and alternative rock radio hit, and featured popular songs like Fight, Awake and On My Own. The tour in support of it featured Crash Karma will play at the Merchant Sept. 27. the band playing almost the entire album, as well as familiar songs from the band mem- out there trying to prove anything.

No More Mischief will capture your imagination By JAN MURRAY

Entertainment - The Thousand Islands Playhouse Gananoque proudly presents ‘No Great Mischief’. Beginning on Sept. 13 and running through until Oct. 5 in the Springer Theatre. ‘No Great Mischief’ is the story of two brothers who struggle to understand their past through flashbacks of their childhood in Cape Breton Island, to a rooming house in Toronto, to their time as young adults in the mines of Northern Ontario. As the brothers search for a way to understand and reconcile their past, they reflect upon days gone by and the bond that holds family together through stories of the Scottish Ancestry that shaped their lives. The small cast which spans this country from Vancouver to Newfoundland has come together just a short time ago and instantaneously it all came back. Cast member Stephen Guy-McGrath explained, “We all came into it with a great deal of preparation and knowledge, so it was a much faster process than you would normally have.” These talented actors have created and lived these characters. Despite the long periods of time in between productions, these characters live on inside them. David Fox who plays Calum MacDonald elaborates, “I have just found that the reincarnation of the show, the length of years and the number of incarnations have firmed up a knowledge of the stories and of the characters. At the same time, it has allowed more insight into moments, which is kind of contradictory, but really has, for me, done that.”

Robert Thomson who plays Alexander MacDonald, reaffirms, “It’s a bit like remembering an old favourite song that you learned years ago. The play is written like a ballad. It’s not a linear story, you sort of drift though all these kind of song bits and in remembering a song you learned years ago, the melody comes back and then it kind of reinhabits your body.” Although one might think that once you have completed a production, and as the years go by, the lines, the entrances and exits would eventually fade from your memory. However, not the case assures J.D. Nicholsen, “You see all these familiar faces and hear their voices and it just triggers stuff that already embodies, muscle memory, emotional memory. It’s amazing how fast it comes back.” As with any production, there are challenges, “things that start off that are similar, a couple of songs that have the same key and the same introductory notes. There’s a tendency to get lost in it. So you have to always be listening and be paying attention. You can’t coast,” explains Guy-McGrath. Fox believes the audience will really enjoy and connect with the play as it is a “story of family and the unromantic look at it.” Thomson elaborates, “It’s very rich, what’s been put together. It’s like a meal that’s been cooked and seeped. It comes from the novel. It’s not a linear story. It goes all over the place. So while the play drifts through this rambling story that turns out to have an absolute core through it, the richness along the way is part of what makes it.” He continues, “It’s always got this

J.D. Nicholsen and RH Thomson act out a scene in 1000 Islands Playhouse production of No More Mischief opening on Sept. 13. Photo/Jan Murray deep richness to it.” Of all the cast members, only two have performed there before. Nicola Lipman and Fox fondly remembered the quiet peaceful town and were eager to return. Other cast members commented on how appealing the landscape is, and how wonderful it is to go outside on break and be right on the water. Lipman likes “the quiet and the town itself. “ And of the people she commented, “It’s a great audience.”

LET US HELP,

A remount of a production that was at the Tarragon Theatre in Toronto last fall, the play which was originally written by David S. Young and adapted from the novel by Alistar Macleod will surely captivate its audience. It is directed by the original director, Richard Rose, set and costume designer, Charolette Dean, and lighting designer Graeme Thomson.

HOROSCOPES

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 – Aries, someone whose opinion matters to you may disagree with you on an important point. Use your powers of persuasion, and both of you will be better for it. TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 – Take your upbeat attitude to new heights this week, Taurus. New challenges will emerge in the coming weeks, so find new inspiration and things will go smoothly. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 – Gemini, keep your head on straight over the next week, which figures to be hectic. Cool heads always prevail, and your calm approach will be noticed by others. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 – Cancer, your ingenuity is treasured among the people closest to you, but those who do not know you may be unfamiliar with the tricks you have up your sleeve. Take time to show them. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 – Leo, someone wants to take your relationship to another level, so let this person know you are on the same page. Otherwise, you both may be floundering around for some time. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 – Virgo, good news awaits on the job this week, even if it is totally unexpected. Nonetheless, it can be exciting to know that someone is watching out for you. LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 – Libra, you may be excited about an upcoming event or getaway, but don’t let your anticipation get the best of you. Remember, you do need to plan and pack. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 – Scorpio, embrace a challenge that presents itself this week. No matter the scale of the challenge, you will soon find you’re up to it, and so will those around you. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 – Sagittarius, be open to new experiences, as you do not know when surprises are going to come around the bend. This week may prove to be a real eye-opener. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 – It’s time to ditch any bad habits that have been holding you back, Capricorn. Set a new course, with new goals, and those old habits will soon be an afterthought. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 – A heightened sense of urgency may have you jumping into a situation, Aquarius. But give this situation the careful consideration it deserves. Keep your eyes on the future. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 – Pisces, now is the time to redirect some of your professional ambitions to your personal life. It’s an effort worth making.
