More Kingston roads to get stop signs or speed reductions By Bill Hutchins
News – Motorists will be braking more often around the city. Council has approved the installation of all-way stop signs at six new locations based on factors such as higher traffic, pedestrian volumes and accident history. The intersections getting stop signs are Barrie Street & Stuart Street, Earl Street & Clergy Street, Lancaster Drive & Milford Drive, Henderson Boulevard & Glen Castle Road, Biscayne Street & Schooner Street and Bur Brook Road & Cordukes Road. The city is also moving to curb the posted speed limit on about 20 rural and urban streets. The speed limit will be lowered to 40 km/h on Dundon Drive (Brewers Mills Road to the end), Baraby Court (Dundon Drive to the end), Virginia Street (Sutherland Drive to Guthrie Drive) and all of Downsview Drive. As well, the speed will be reduced to 50 km/h on Kingston Mills Road (west of Kingston Mills Locks for 500 metres), Woods Side Road (Highway 15 to Woodburn Road), and Days Road (extend existing 50 km/h zone north of Front Road by 325 metres.) But the bulk of speed reductions Rory Patton breaks into a bboiz routine during the City of Kingston’s 6:30 a.m. dance party at the Tett Centre on Friday.

70 km/h or higher. The following roads will get a new speed limit of 60 km/h; -Accommodation Road (1.6 km west of White Church Road to 6th Concession Road), -Sea Brook Road (Highway 15 to City limits), -Smith Road (Westbrook Road to Howes Road), -Howes Road (Smith Road to Unity Road), -Joyceville Road (500 metres on either side of Middle Road), -Middle Road (500 metres on either side of Joyceville Road), -Perth Road (extend existing 60 km/h zone north of Unity Road by 600 metres), -Unity Road (around Battersea Road), -Kingston Road 2 (extend existing 60 km/h zone to 30 metres east of Ravensview), -Battersea Road (Highway 401 northerly to just north of Kingston Mills Road). Countryside councillor Richard Allen pushed for all of Unity Road near Glenburnie to be posted at 60 km/h to create a consistent and predictable speed limit. “This would fill in the 1.2 kilometres remaining on Unity Road that isn’t 60,” he observed.

Downtown transit hub needs upgrades, not relocation, study concludes By Bill Hutchins
News – Kingston Transit went looking for a new downtown transit hub and decided the current site near Hotel Dieu Hospital is still the best place to be. “This is the best solution, no question,” said John Hubbell, associate vice president of HDR, which conducted a transit location environmental study. But consultants are also recommending the bus zones along Brock and Bagot Streets undergo major improvements to address operational deficiencies and to improve the physical environment for the 600,000 passengers who use the transfer point every year. Kingston Transit officials support the findings and plan to present them to council in early December for approval, along with a cost estimate to improve the downtown transit hub. The city has already budgeted about $4 million for street and sidewalk improvements. “From a transit operation standpoint it’s a very efficient site to be at. It lets buses come into the downtown in a very efficient way. So it’s not surpris-
ing we are at this location. But we’re pleased to see the number of modifications we can make to the existing site that’ll really enhance it,” said Ian Semple, a city transportation manager overseeing the project. Experts agree the current layout of the busy transit hub is too cluttered, chaotic for bus drivers coming and going, and confusing and unattractive for passengers. The preferred solution, unveiled at a public open house Sept. 22, is to increase the number of designated onstreet bus parking spaces – a total of six spaces on Brock Street and six on Bagot Street with room to add three more bus stop zones – up from the current number of eight spaces. “This places the buses in a more predictable area. It will feel more like the transfer point that we have at the Kingston Centre,” Semple explained. There are also big changes to make the sidewalk space more attractive for passengers and other pedestrians. Among the proposed improvements; -install better lighting, street furniture and longer bus shelters, -reconfigure the 5-metre wide sidewalk to create three designated spaces
to accommodate pedestrians, street furniture and transit access, -more signage to make it easier to find express and regular bus connections. Transit officials say the city has invested millions of dollars to launch 15-minute rush hour express routes, and the cramped on-street transfer terminal needs to be more spacious for the additional buses that converge downtown. “We’ve had some major expansion across the city but all the express routes come through this hub. This is a very important part of the system that we want to make it the best it can be,” Semple explained. The improvements will not remove any of the existing traffic lanes on either Brock or Bagot Streets. But the timeline for the new transit hub street/sidewalk construction and cosmetic improvements will depend on other road projects planned for the area, including the ‘big dig 3’ on Princess Street. Transit officials say Brock Street, between Bagot and Montreal Streets, will undergo the bulk of improvements. The work will be coordinated with the roads department to
complete other infrastructure needs in the area at the same time. Consultants explored six other locations for a new downtown bus terminal, including three on Queen Street, but all were deemed unsuitable because of the impact on traffic, residents and businesses, or the lack of physical space to accommodate up to 15 buses at once. “Of all the six sites evaluated the best one was to move to Clarence Street between Bagot and Wellington Streets in front of the post office building,” said Hubbell. However, that option would also
mean the elimination of dozens of onstreet parking spaces. He added: “Every move you make somebody gains and somebody loses.” That left the current transfer point, with extensive upgrades, as the best option. “We’re pretty confident this will serve the community for a long time. The best place is to stay where it is,” said Hubbell. Public surveys also revealed that most bus passengers liked the current central location and didn’t want it moved onto Princess Street.

Local MP candidates discuss wide range of issues at first all-candidates meeting By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – Candidates for MP in Kingston and the Islands were greeted by a full house at their first all-candidates meeting at St. Lawrence College’s Davies Hall on Sept. 22. The meeting was hosted by Imagine Kingston, a group that focuses on the advancement of the city’s social, cultural, educational and business endeavours Kingstonians of all ages came out to hear what the candidates had to say. The evening began with a series of questions asked by panellists Timo Hytonen, chair of Imagine Kingston, Beth Insley, president of the Student Association at St. Lawrence College (SLC) and Dr. Kathy Brock, professor at the school of policy studies at Queen’s University. Following those questions, audience members were invited to ask questions through written submission. Questions covered a broad range of topics including the future of military spending and growth in Canada, the economy, funding for the Kingston airport and a third crossing, healthcare, and employment. Given the setting, panellist Beth Insley asked candidates what they would do to create jobs for youth in the city. Insley referenced the fact that 80 per cent of St. Lawrence graduates do move on to gain employment, but she

wanted to know what would be done to maintain that. For his part, Conservative Candidate Andy Brooke proposed the idea of a ‘Green Business Park’ for Kingston to create current and future jobs, “The park would be the first of its kind in Canada and I’d love to see it here in Kingston,” said Brooke. Liberal candidate, Mark Gerretsen referenced his party’s plan to create jobs and improve infrastructure, noting that, “5,000 jobs would be created through Parks Canada and restoring programs cut by the Harper government.” Gerretsen also referenced the LPC’s plan to eliminate Employment Insurance (EI) contributions for small business owners hiring youth aged 18-24. NDP candidate, Daniel Beals, a recent graduate from SLC himself, acknowledged the hurdles facing students, “we need to invest in youth,” he said. He spoke of the NDP’s plan to create 40,000 jobs over next four years through private partnerships with NGOs and in the public sector. (Left to right) Moderator Bill Leggett and MP for Kingston and the Islands candidates Green Party candidate, Nathan Townend Daniel Beals, Andy Brooke, Mark Gerretsen and Nathan Townend. took a different approach to the question and Photo/Mandy Marciniak spoke of his party’s commitment to creating a basic liveable income in Canada.

100 Kids Kingston aims to ‘create lifelong givers in our community’ mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – A new group in Kingston is hoping to teach kids the value of giving back; 100 Kids Kingston officially launched on Sept. 21 and the group is already making quite the impression on community members. “The response has been mind blowing,” said Kimberly Betts, mother of two young Kingstonians and one of the founders of the group. “In two days we had already reached our goal of 100 kids signed up, but we are happy to surpass that number. The more children there are the better and the more kids we have the more money we have to donate.” The idea for 100 Kids came from long time 100+ Women Who Care Kingston member Jessica Duggan who brought the idea to friends Julie Fossitt and Betts this past summer. “She asked if we would be interested in helping to coordinate it in the Kingston area and we both jumped on board immediately,” explained Betts. “I thought it was the best and most unique idea I had heard in a long time and I was excited to be a part of it.” The group aims to get kids actively involved in their community through giving their ‘time, talents and treasures’ in the form of participating in group meetings and donating their time and money to the group. Kids from Kindergarten to Grade 6 are invited to become members of the group and participate in three annual meetings at the Boys and Girls Club.
In terms of giving, the group will work in a similar way that 100+ Women works, but instead of each person donating $100 kids will be asked to donate $10. “Parents are encouraged to help their child raise that money or earn that money. We don’t want the parents just handing over the money,” said Betts. “This also gives parents an opportunity to teach their kids about financial literacy.” Collectively, 100 Kids will be able to donate at least $1,000 to a community group at each meeting and members are encouraged to nominate organizations they hope to contribute too. “We will then select three charities from the list of nominees and contact a representative from each to come to our meeting and explain what their group does,” explained Betts. “We want the kids to know where their money is going and what they are supporting.” Betts and her co-founders hope that the exercise will teach kids about the importance of giving back to the community, but the exercise isn’t just about monetary donations. “In addition to the money component we came up with the 100 minute challenge,” said Betts. “We encourage kids to come up with ways to give their time in 100 minutes through volunteering or helping others. These can be done in between 100 Kids organizer Kimberly Betts’s daughters Sophie Lockhart (3) and Mia Lockhart (5) meetings to keep the giving going throughout the earning money at their lemonade stand this past summer. year.” To help parents and members with these chal- 100, but Betts encourages anyone who is interest- it feels to give back to others and really work to lenges, 100 Kids has a list of suggestions and tips ed to join and the group is already thinking about create lifelong givers in our community.” on their website. ways to expand.

More Kingston roads to get stop signs or speed reductions Continued from page 1
Council agreed to reduce the speed limit on the remaining section of Unity Road. “This is a reasonable request to make it all 60 along Unity,” agreed traffic manager Deanna Green. She says the installation of speed limit signage is expected to occur in late 2015 or early 2016. “Speed limits on both urban and rural roads are assessed on an ongoing basis based on staff’s review and well as in response to
requests from Kingston City Police, councillors and residents,” according to Green’s report. Meanwhile, the province’s default speed limit on urban streets won’t be changed anytime soon. The Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) recently solicited feedback from municipalities to determine if there was adequate support to change the de facto speed limit in residential areas from 50 to 40 km/h. Kingston supports a 40 km/h speed limit in all resi-

Bal-der-dash! of a lifetime. appease the critics, for now “I’m looking forward to that,” remarked group spokesperson Peter Kingston. KEDCO has come under increasing pressure since the beginning of the year to do a better job of explaining how it works, where tax dollars are spent and justifying its deliverables. Critics say if the agency says it helped to bring ‘X’ number of new jobs to the city every year, then prove it. For a body that operates as a private corporation with public money, it’s easy to see why there’s been so much confusion and criticism. When agency reps appeared before council, they were noticeably hesitant to follow Coun. Jim Neill’s advice to disclose how much their top executives earn each year. The Sunshine List that outlines the $100,000-plus a year salaries of public sector earners does not apply to KEDCO. Perhaps, it should. But, then again, we expect that will be part of the lengthy organizational and governance review that’s about to get underway. Another aspect of the study is deciding whether KEDCO’s workload should be scaled back and refocused. After all, as KEDCO-hired consultant Jay Amer told council, most economic development agencies in Ontario do not include tourism promotion or doctor recruitment as part of their mandates. (Bringing in the outsider Amer to field many of council’s tough questions was a strategic coup for KEDCO in disarming its critics).
Perhaps the agency has bitten off more than it can chew. Or, more likely, previous councils have bundled too many responsibilities onto KEDCO’s plate. Now may be the time to delist some of its services so it can focus on the core responWell, some may put it that way but to many sibilities of attracting jobs and of us, it’s Summer is Officially Over. investment.

You’d have to be half-brain dead not to times have changed in the business world, and the agency may enjoy the annual Fall colours show that nature puts on every year.

Interim CEO Donna Gillespie continues to insist the agency is not broken, but admits closer scrutiny of its mandate is overdue to ensure it can deliver jobs and other services the community has come to expect. “We believe it’s a good time to undertake a formal review … this has not been done since 2007.” The review, expected to get underway later this fall, will be conducted by a panel that’s almost as big as the KEDCO board itself; 11 members drawn from the agency’s own ranks along with two councillors, four appointed citizens, plus support staff and consultants who will, among other things, study the ‘best practices’ experience of comparable cities. Kingston First, the citizens group that has openly criticized KEDCO’s transparency, ambiguous job report cards and communications, plans to get a seat at the table.

Editorial These are a few of my favourite things… about fall
For as long as I can remember, fall has been my favourite season. Sure, summer is great and it’s the season everyone looks forward to after winter, but I’ve always been partial to fall and look forward to it each year. There are so many things I love about this season, but here are my favourites, in no particular order. My Birthday – I read somewhere that people tend to favour the season they were born in and this is definitely the case for me. My birthday is Oct. 8. On the year I was born, it was actually Thanksgiving Monday, and my birthday continues to fall around the holiday each year. I love that about my birthday. I love that it can be celebrated at a time of year when I see family and friends anyways and that always makes it feel special Thanksgiving – Since my birthday and thanksgiving usually come together,
this holiday has always been one of my favourites. It is also a pretty stress free holiday; it isn’t crazy like Christmas and it isn’t as commercial as Easter. Thanksgiving is all about family gatherings and sharing a great meal and who doesn’t like that? Pumpkin everything – I’ll admit this has become a bit overwhelming in recent years (nobody needs pumpkin spice gum), but I have always loved the classic pumpkin flavoured things like pie, soup and lattes. There are few things better than enjoying a pumpkin spice latter or a spicy chai latte on a crisp fall day. Sweaters, scarves and the occasional dress – My favourite time of year in terms of fashion has always been summer because I can live in dresses, but I can also do this for most of the fall and in fall I get the added bonus of adding scarves. I love scarves. They are my favourite accessory and I have accumulated quite the collection over the years. I also love pairing these scarves with cozy sweaters as fall progresses. Cooler temperatures, but not too cold – If we could have fall temperatures all year round I would never

complain. I love that fall is usually warmer in the day and cooler at night, making it comfortable for sleeping and still enjoyable to sit outside during the afternoon. Fall is the perfect mix of warm and cool and the temperature never gets to the point where you dread going outside. Fall foliage – When I was a teenager there was a road around my house that went by part of the Niagara escarpment. During the fall, I would take that road as often as I could. I love seeing the trees changing colours; the colours are so bright and vibrant and I love seeing the transition. Now, on the lake, we get to see hundreds of trees change around us and as an added bonus there is no need to clean up those leaves when they fall because our area is so rural. I’m sure there are many other things I could mention that I like about fall, but these are my favourites. The only thing that I dislike about fall is the season that comes next, but, I’ll just savour these amazing days for as long as I can and hope that is enough to get me through the winter.

8 Kingston Heritage - Thursday, October 1, 2015
In Our Opinion
Raising awareness of anaphylaxis Editorial - We were heartbroken to hear that a Queen’s student died last week due to complications arising from anaphylaxis. It has been reported that Andrea Mariano was allergic to milk, and severely allergic to peanuts. Her family said she was admitted to KGH after consuming a smoothie that was purchased on campus. Family members have indicated that she was meticulous when it came to ordering food and drink, and would never have allowed anyone to order for her. We would like to respond to this tragedy by raising public awareness of anaphylaxis, and what can be done to prevent these kinds of reactions. It is estimated that 0.05-2 per cent of the world’s population will experience anaphylaxis at some point during their life, and rates appear to be increasing. The allergic response is marked by swelling, hives, lowered blood pressure and dilated blood vessels. In severe cases, a person will go into shock. If anaphylactic shock isn’t treated immediately, it can be fatal. Universities across the province and the country are currently reviewing policies when it comes to food preparation and handling. When asked for comment, premier Kathleen Wynne replied that “’we need to make sure that every institution is looking at evolving concerns around food allergies.” Many institutions are now looking at making food providers make signage more visible on their menus and around displays. Experts say that teens and young adults are especially vulnerable to anaphylactic reactions, as they are no longer under the watchful eyes of parents and caregivers. They may also lack experience negotiating food transactions outside of the home and school environment, seeking to blend in with friends and hence becoming prone to making riskier decisions. Allergy experts say that young people with anaphylaxis can to be their own best advocates, and be ever vigilante about what they might be consuming. Parents and caregivers can guide conversations about food safety, but it is paramount that young people learn to communicate their needs by themselves with university staff, friends, and food service providers. They should also always be mindful to carry their epinephrine EpiPen with them at all times. If you are with someone having an allergic reaction with signs of anaphylaxis (abdominal pain, vomiting, hives) call 9-1-1 immediately. Most people who have anaphylaxis carry an EpiPen autoinjector, which temporarily treats the reaction by allowing epinephrine to be absorbed by the body’s muscles and diffused into the bloodstream. If the person says he or she needs to use an autoinjector, ask whether you should help inject the medication. This is usually done by pressing the autoinjector against the person’s thigh. Have the person lie still on his or her back. Loosen tight clothing and cover the person with a blanket. Don’t give the person anything to drink. More information about anaphylaxis can be found on the Health Canada website at http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hl-vs/iyh-vsv/med/allerg-eng.php.

Low income earners seek break in transit fares By Bill Hutchins
News – High school students currently enjoy free passes to use Kingston Transit, and many low income residents could soon get similar treatment. City council has set the wheels in motion to study the possibility of providing free or reduced off-peak transit passes to thousands of residents living below the poverty line. Coun. Mary Rita Holland, who introduced the motion to unanimous approval Sept. 15, says most of the city’s low income earners can’t access the current transportation subsidy that offers $46.50 for a monthly transit pass. “Seventy-seven per cent of low income residents do not qualify for affordable transit passes,” noted Coun. Holland. Willa Thayer is one of the people who would benefit from Coun. Holland’s motion. The childless woman says she struggles to make ends meet while receiving $656 a month on welfare, $400 of which goes to rent. “I have no money to pay for the bus.” Thayer, who lives on a very tight budget, says she usually doesn’t mind walking or riding her bicycle to the grocery store and other places during the warmer months. But she says that’s not an option during the depths of winter. “I really struggle in the winter,” she said in
an eye opening presentation to council. She says it leaves her with a difficult choice – buy a bus ticket or buy groceries. A one-way adult pass costs as much as a cabbage or onions. “I badly need that money for other things.” Kingston has 12,000 residents like Thayer who live under the Low Income Cut Off (LICO), which is $15,600 a year. Thayer says she would appreciate a free or discounted pass during Kingston Transit’s off-peak hours between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. when transit usage is typically lower. Coun. Holland says access to free or affordable public transit for those who can least afford it will help many Kingston residents lead healthy and productive lives. “This initiative came from community members who service low income earners,” she added. Staff will spend the next several months gathering information on how much it could cost, who qualifies, and during what times of day to possibly provide subsidized transit for LICO earners. A report is expected to be made to the city committee that deals with transportation issues by next summer. The study will coincide with a current review of Kingston Transit’s bus fares. Kingston Transit last increased its fares in January 2014. The adult cash fare is now $2.75, while youth and senior fares are $2.50. It was the first transit fare hikes since 2011.

Fighting Alzheimer’s with “Coffee Break” By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheitageemc.ca
News – It’s coffee for a cause – for the past 20 years the Alzheimer Society of Canada has encouraged businesses and community members to host ‘coffee breaks’ to raise money for research and programming. For the past 11 years, Bulk Barn has done just that. In Kingston, the two local Bulk Barn locations hosted a coffee break this year from Sept. 4 to 21 and in just over two weeks they raised nearly $5,000. “All the money goes to the local chapter of the Alzheimer Society,” explained Bipin Vyas, franchise owner of both Bulk Barn locations in Kingston. “Bulk Barn is the official sponsor of coffee break and we are always happy and excited to participate.” The $5,000 raised in Kingston came from individual customers donating at the register. Some of the funds were then matched by Vyas as the franchise owner and Bulk Barn Canada. In exchange for their donations, customers were able to enjoy a coffee in the front entrance of the Bulk
Barn stores. “Our customers are always so generous and we really appreciate their contributions each year,” said Vyas. Each year, the campaign helps over 747,000 Canadians across the country living with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia; last year Bulk Barn proudly contributed $342,491 nationally to this cause. “The funds go towards our client services and help support those who are living with the disease as well as their caregivers,” explained Stephanie Haughian, fundraising coordinator for the Kingston Alzheimer Society. “We run education programs too and all the programming we run is free to the public and our clients.” Coffee Break is the largest annual fundraising campaign for the Alzheimer Society and in Kingston 40 to 50 businesses and individuals host coffee breaks annually. “The funds generated through coffee breaks allow us to continue the works we do,” said Haughian. “We are grateful for the support from Bulk Barn both locally and nationally.”

Prominent Canadian author hopes new novel will “promote empathy and understanding” for refugees hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
The plight of the world’s refugees is a topof-mind subject for many these days after those seeking refuge from Syria have been highlighted by both national and international media in past weeks. For Canadian author Lawrence Hill, it’s been an important cause for many decades; his latest novel, The Illegal, addresses this theme by telling the story of a boy named Keita, a refugee from the fictional country of Zantoroland. The Heritage caught up with Hill in advance of his appearance at the Kingston WritersFest International Marquis event on Sept. 24. “I’ve been interested in the plight of stateless people since the 1980s, when I went to Berlin a few times to visit my late sister who was living there for a decade,” he explains. “I watched Sudanese refugees trying to get themselves organized without really being able to do so openly or with citizenship… I was interested in how people cope with the pressures of life when they have no legal status in a country.” Hill describes the fictional setting of The Illegal as a dystopia, which borrows some of the worst refugee policies from a number of different western countries. “I’m projecting forward a little bit to a kind of nightmarish situation,” he says. “It was eas-
ier for me to write the story in two imaginary places - the country that the character flees and the one that he goes to hide in. Readers can identify more fully without being distracted by how much the story conforms to the specific reality of a specific country in the world.” Appropriately, Keita is a marathon runner; while he longs to someday compete in the Olympics, his skills end up helping him to stay alive as he runs from his enemies. It so happens that the author is also no stranger to the world of running, and even harboured Olympic dreams himself as a youth. “I hoped to become a great runner but I didn’t have the lungs or the legs. I’ve spent my life in the world of running and so it allowed me to draw from my own experiences. “But also,” he adds, “running seemed the best pursuit to give my protagonist because he’s running in every sense of the word. He’s running to avoid capture, to avoid detection, to avoid deportation and certain death. He’s really using his legs to stay alive.” Hill hopes The Illegal will contribute to the conversation on refugees in the uniquely profound way that fiction can: “If you want to learn about the facts relating to refugees, I suppose you’ll read a newspaper or magazine piece or study a report the United Nations has put out or look to what some refu- Author Lawrence Hill gee or immigration lawyer is advocating. But what I’m hoping to do is stimulate the imagination to promote empathy and understanding.” Indeed, Hill notes that he has been discouraged by Canada’s and other countries’ lack of response to refugees in recent years. “European nations haven’t found a way to work together yet in a coordinated way, but in North America we are also being quite stingy and quite uncaring. I think we can do much OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK! more than we’ve done so far….We can’t solve crises all around the world but we can certainly show more humanitarianism than we have to date.”

He hopes that the novel will inspire Canadians to extend the same level of assistance our country has demonstrated at different times in the past. “Occasionally we really have stepped up in the past, so I suppose I’m hoping that the novel will encourage readers to see the humanity of individuals who are fleeing and trekking by the millions to some place they can live in peace.” The Illegal is available now in all bookstores.

Hastings, Lennox and Addington Green Party candidate urges voters to make climate change a priority mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – If you meet Cam Mather on the campaign trail in the Hastings-Lennox and Addington riding, don’t be surprised if he asks you how you feel about the weather; Mather, the Green Party candidate for MP in the riding, is passionate about climate change and he is determined to make others passionate about it too. “I always ask voters what they think of the weather and everyone agrees that there is a problem. It is unpredictable and more extreme and everyone agrees that something needs to be done,” said Mather, “But none of the other three parties want to actually do something and the media doesn’t want to talk about it and that is why I am running in this election.” Mather lives in Tamworth with his wife, Michelle, in a home that is off of the electricity grid. They own a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm and in recent years they have published books about sustainable living. He is also passionate about politics, and ran

as MPP in the last provincial election in the LFL&A riding; while he was unsuccessful, he hopes to make an impact at the federal level this time around. “The Green Party has an amazing platform that deals with all levels of governing,” said Mather. “There are so many things that we can do to help our country right now and we have the technology to make our economy carbon free, but we lack the leadership to do it and Elizabeth May has that leadership.” Mather also points out that in a riding like his, conservation and protection of the environment should be a top priority. “We’d like to preserve this beautiful place we live in and with infestations like the mountain pine beetle and the emerald ash borer some of the forests are suffering,” he said. “It is also becoming increasingly harder to grow food. This year we had drought, a hard frost and then weeks of heavy downpours and all that prevented farming. We are very concerned about this and none of the other parties want to talk about the causes of this.” For Mather, these issues stem
from the ‘muzzling’ of scientists with the current government and he is deeply concerned about the state

reduce the Prime Minister’s budget form $10 million to $1 million so that there is no longer such an opportunity to control the government and there will no longer be whipped votes,” said Mather. “I think the Green Party really wants to return democracy to Ottawa and so do I.” The Green Party is also promising to reduce tuition fees for students, introduce a pharmacare system, provide more assistance for seniors and start a carbon tax system, something Mather is very pleased with. “It sounds kind of crazy, but what happens is that everyone will realize that things like home heating are getting more expensive and then they may look at things that can reduce that cost like spray foam or new windows,” he explained. “This process helps to create local jobs and it helps with carbon emissions too. It will reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and that is very positive for the future.” While campaigning has been a bit difficult in the riding because of its size and lack of funding within the party, Mather is committed to getting the Green Party’s message

Food Bank’s ‘Steer it Up’ crowd funding campaign hopes to engage younger Kingstonians By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – The Kingston Partners in Mission Food Bank ‘care van’ definitely gets around; in a typical week the van can be seen picking up donations, dropping off hampers and doing whatever the food bank needs, but all of this activity takes its toll, especially after 10 years. “We’ve needed a new van for quite some time,” said Sandy Singers, executive director of the Kingston Partners in Mission Food Bank. “We’ve been putting a lot of money into it and it really is time to upgrade, but in order to do that we need to fundraise.” Fundraising isn’t new for the food bank, but this time around they thought they’d try something different – crowd funding. “We did a donor survey in January and through that we gained a lot of different results, but the one that stood out the most for us was that most of the donors who responded were fairly senior,” said Singers. “We decided that we needed to do something to reach out to younger donors and crowd funding was suggested.” The food bank worked with the Spark program at St. Lawrence College to get the campaign organized and members of the team gave suggestions on how to reach out to millennials and Gen Xers. The food bank already uses Facebook and Twitter to reach the community, but Singers learned that this simply isn’t enough. “We aren’t engaging with the users that follow us as much as we could,” he said. “We need to focus on building relationships and connecting and we are really hoping

that crowd funding can do that.” The campaign, entitled ‘Steer it Up’, officially launches on Oct. 5 and hopes to raise $50,000 for a new van and a logo wrap to go with it. “We want to list all of our sponsors and

donors on the van so people can get recognition for their contributions,” said Singers. “We’ll include logos and then we will also watermark the names of donors behind that and really show that we appreciate each and every donation.” To get the ball R0013483775_1001 rolling, Kingston Dodge has already signed on as a platinum sponsor for the campaign, giving the

“We hope this campaign will help us engage with the community in a new way and in a more consistent way,” said Singers. “The food bank is a critical service and we aren’t seeing a slowdown.

From island farm to big city retailer: Amherst Island’s Topsy Farms partners with Holt Renfrew News - If you’ve taken a trip out to Amherst Island recently, you may have noticed Topsy Farms. The passionately run lamb and sheep farm has been on the island since 1972, but in past years more and more people have started taking notice of both the farm and their products. “I came out here in 1978 with my husband and we’ve been building the farm ever since.” explained Sally Bowen, one of five owners of Topsy Farms. “Now, we sell to about 380 private buyers each season in terms of our meat . We have expanded our product base to wool products too, but that process took some work.” With about 1,000 breeding ewes and about 1,200-1,300 lambs on the farm, sheep shearing is no easy task; instead of selling the wool off for a very small return, Bowen and her partners started looking for companies that would turn the wool into products they could sell. They quickly found a company in Prince Edward Island that produces wool blankets and yarn in an ethical way. “They don’t strip the lanolin from the wool using sulphuric acid and the other chemicals that are often used in wool production, they simply wash the wool. It is an old fashioned mill and it is actually in the neighbourhood my husband grew up in,” said Bowen. “We decided to try sending some of our wool out there. We started with some blankets for ourselves and friends and then we had some yarn produced and it grew from there.” Now, Bowen and her partners send a tractor trailer and about 6,000 pounds of wool out to PEI’s MacAusland’s Woolen Mills each year. When it comes back, it has been transformed into wool blankets, throws and tons of yarn for the Topsy Farms shop. These products are unique and have earned Topsy Farms the top spot in Canada when it comes to producers of Canadian made wool blankets, making their products appealing to many different customers, including national retailer Holt Renfrew. “This past July I got a phone call out of the blue from someone talking about Prince Charles and Holt Renfrew and it sort of blew my mind,” said Bowen. “It was hard to take seriously at first, but now here we are with our products in their stores.” The partnership comes as part of the Campaign for Wool, a program that runs in 12 countries and was launched by Prince Charles and The Duchess of Cornwall last year during an event in Nova Scotia. The program works to promote wool as a natural and sustainable product that can be produced locally. This year, Holt Renfrew joined the campaign in the hopes of promot-
ing wool producers. “This delightful young man contacted me and I told him he would have to convince my husband. So he came out here to the farm and had a wander of the wool shed and bought products for Holt Renfrew to choose from,” said Bowen. “They were interested in five of the products and those are now being featured in their stores.” The products include wool blankets, sheepskin mittens for adults in three sizes and baby sheepskin mittens. The sheepskin products are made with the help of Atlas Tanning in Blythe, Ontario and are crafted by Hides in Hands in Rockwood in accordance with Topsy’s specifications. All of the products are Canadian produced and are being sold in three Holt Renfrew locations including Toronto at Bloor and Yonge, Calgary and Ogilvy’s in Montreal from Sept. 18 to 27. “We are one of the very few Canadian companies that are being included in the campaign and it’s deeply satisfying for us,” said Bowen of the partnership. “I don’t think just because we are in the country we are not of value until someone in the city notices us, but on the other hand we are delighted that someone with their very sophisticated taste and very selective, careful buyers chose us.”

Bowen is also happy to have the publicity and she hopes that the attention attracts more people to Topsy Farms and Amherst Island. “Inviting people out here provides an opportunity to link urban and rural,” said Bowen. “We work hard to produce our products and promote the island and that is what we are all about. Anyone is welcome and our slogan is that if we are

New hockey league wants to give everyone the chance to play By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Sports – For many kids in Kingston, playing hockey is a hug part of life, but for kids with special needs, it simply was not an option – until now. A new special needs hockey program is starting in Kingston this fall and it hopes to give anyone who can skate a chance to play. “I have a son who has special needs and our family has been involved in the special needs hockey program for about 10 years now,” explained Robert Chapman, organizer of the new Kingston program. “We started a team in our community north of Barrie and we had about 40 members. Then I got transferred to Kingston and I’ve been working on something similar here.” Chapman got in contact with the Kingston Minor Hockey Association (KMHA) and they were happy to help him start up a team. They even supplied an hour of ice time to get the Special Needs Division going. “They really saw the need in the community and I do too,” said Chapman. “We held an open house a few weeks ago and we already have about 17 members interested. That is the best start I’ve seen for a team. I think after word gets out we could easily have a couple of teams.” The team invites anyone over the age of five that is unable to play in mainstream hockey because of special needs to participate. “It can be someone with autism,
Asperger’s or Down syndrome and it can also include players who have trouble dealing with competitive environments or have anger issues that aren’t acceptable in regular leagues,” said Chapman. “We are very accommodating.” Players simply need to have the ability to skate and a passion for playing hockey. Players receive equal ice time on the teams and play with modified rules that include no body contact and no off-sides or icing. Chapman has seen the benefits of the special needs program with his own son and he has also received lots of positive feedback from other parents and even teachers. “We’ve had testimonials from parents and teachers saying that once these players have been part of this program you can see the difference in them,” he said. “These individuals are more confident, they perform better in school and they become more social.” The impact of the program can also be seen on the parents and Chapman is always happy to see a proud parent watching their kid play. “We have parents in the stands crying because they never thought that their kid would be able to play hockey. I have been one of those parents so I know what it means.” Registration for the Kingston Minor Hockey Special Needs Division begins on Oct. 3 at Centre 70 from 11 a.m. to noon. Chapman hopes to see a great turnout and an increase in interested

Calling all wannabe lumberjacks By Many Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Events – This fall, the MacLachlan Woodworking Museum is encouraging Kingstonians to break out their flannel shirts, long johns, man beards and axes for the first ever Lumberjack Survival Summit. “We wanted to show people that woodworking is still very much a living craft and it is not something that was done in the olden days and then forgotten about,” explained Martha Kroeker, program coordinator of cultural services at the City of Kingston. “We also wanted to have a bit of fun with the idea of lumber jacking and that is what this event is all about.” The Lumberjack Survival Summit takes place Oct. 24 and 25 at the MacLachlan Woodworking Museum and Grass Creek Park. Interested attendees will participate in a variety of workshops, enjoy food cooked over the campfire and even camp on site. “I think it is a unique opportunity and I think people will really enjoy it,” said Kroeker. “It will be a great story to tell at the office after the weekend and most people probably won’t believe that you learned these things.” Workshops for the summit are divided into four categories: food and drink, wilderness survival, wood skills and camp life and include things like how to make nature teas, how to practice wilderness safety and
how to make a mug using a hatchet and fire-starting. “We have doctors form Queen’s, instructors from the Ontario Recreational Canoe and Kayak Association, members of the Gananoque Brewery and other local experts too,” said Kroeker. “Attendees will get to build their own schedule of what interests them most.” There will also be some friendly competition at meal times with activities like crosscut saw races, axe throwing, bug eating, and nail driving. “The competitions are really about team building and just having fun,” said Kroeker. The summit is also a lead up to the travelling production of Timber! that is coming to the Grand Theatre on Oct. 27. The show features a young circus troupe performing aerial acrobatics using tools directly inspired by the natural raw materials of the forest and the equipment used on the farm. “The show ties in really well with this experience and it is a great opportunity to promote both the museum and this amazing show,” said Kroeker. Kroeker and museum curator, Tom Riddolls both hope that the summit will expose woodworking and different outdoor skills to a new audience and maybe create new hobbies for community members. “I think some of the workshops will really teach skills that will be useful beyond the weekend,” said Kroeker.
Martha Kroeker and Tom Riddolls are the organizers behind the Lumberjack Survival Summit at the MacLachlan Woodworking Museum on Oct. 24 and 25. Photo/Mandy Marciniak “It is an opportunity to learn skills that are being lost in our urban lives and reconnect with an old trade. We hope it will interest people and maybe
become an annual event.” For more information about the Lumberjack Survival Summit or to register visit http://woodworkingmu-

Mayors meet the minister By Margaret Knott
then quarry, the pay in 1939 was 25 cents an hour, the same price as a gallon of gasoline. When the quarry closed (1951) it was sold to Ernie Whitmarsh who in turn sold it to the Township of Wolfe Island in 1952 for use as a municipal dump. 4. And speaking of the Historical Society , their recent journal also pays special attention to the Dutch Connection and the arrival of families from the Netherlands following WW II (29 during 1948-49) with names ever familiar throughout Kingston and the Islands, De Ruiter, Vandenhoek, Hasselaar, Posthumus, Sjongers and many, many more all listed in “Windword”. The Historical Society offers history of the island to newcomers, refreshes stories and memories for life long islanders and safeguards the island’s past at WI’s Old House Museum with its increasing number of artifacts, through their annual speakers series, and of course, through “Windword”. For info Brian: macdobb@kos.net. 5. Federal Election- An All Candidate Debate will be held at the Gen. Wolfe Hotel (pub side) Friday Oct. 2nd , 7-9 pm. Organizers will accept questions from Islanders only, written in a civil manner (on paper provided). Coming from Kingston you are encouraged to use the free Shuttle Bus Service. For Info: Judith - 613-876-9015. 6. Extra ferry run: An additional WI ferry run at 4:45 am to begin Mon. Sept. 28 th until further notice specifically to take fall crops (2 trucks per ferry) off the island. Passengers and other vehicles can also board. This extra run is welcomed by farmers and by those who regularly take the 5:45 am ferry and struggle to make it to work by 6:30.
News - Frontenac Islands Mayor Denis Doyle, Prince Edward County Mayor Robert Quaiff, and Loyalist Township Mayor Bill Lowry, with Councillor Duncan Ashley (Amherst Island), met with the Minister of Transportation, the Honourable Steven Del Duca, to discuss serious ferry service issues at Wolfe, Amherst, and Glenora. Kingston and the Islands MPP Sophie Kiwala attended the meeting. “ It was a good open meeting”, according to Mayor Doyle who noted that the discussion included a request that the minister support the purchase of a used backup ferry to ensure continuous ferry service and safety in the three communities. And further with regard to a new 75 car ferry for Wolfe Island that the minister allow the design for it to start during the EA process (rather than at the end) ensuring an earlier completion date. “Minister Del Duca was not only sympathetic to our situation but also apologetic about the present situation.” Doyle said “It was obvious that MPP Kiwala has been lobbying hard on behalf of the Islands and the existing ferry problems and has kept the minister well informed. The ministry will look into the EA process and consider use of a previous boat design . In industry it is not uncommon to use a previous design and alter it as required. They will also continue the search for a used ferry,” he said. “But we have to keep at it . One meeting can’t solve the problems. Hopefully we will get over the present situation with the Wolfe Islander III very soon and bring some relief to Amherst Island and continue to move forward.” Doyle concluded. The challenges of the ferry services have existed for more than 20 years. 2. WI Gas/Fuel Outlet.

There’s truth in this fiction
Apocalypto about the Aztec Empire. It uses the Aztec and Mayan languages and subtitles. I came out of the theatre with my wife and son and said, ‘I know what I want to write about and how I want to do it.’” He wanted to go the traditional publishing route. “Self-publishing is kind of like selling insurance,” he said. “You can be limited in what you sell, and you hope your friends and family buy it.” Fortunately, Dundurn Press got word of Revelle’s work and picked him up as an author. Good decision on the part of this respected Canadian publishing company. I Am Algonquin takes the reader into the life of Mahingan, a warrior, and his family who live in Ontario in the mid-1300s. The book ends following Algonquin battles with the Iroquois. “Mahingan’s wife has been captured, and Mahingan thought she was dead,” said Revelle. “But in the end, you see her in a canoe.” Revelle has done a number of book signings around Ontario,

Revelle explained that although these books are historical fiction, they are accurate in terms of Algonquin teachings and legends. In the first book, there was inspiration from a friend of Revelle’s. A real life incident helped Revelle craft one of his characters. “In the first book there was a shape shifter with a club foot,” said Revelle. “He becomes a very

My friend was so upset. We wondered what this boy would have been like had he lived. I made him a very strong character who almost takes over the book. I want to show kids that just because you have a disability, it doesn’t mean you have to go through life disabled. In the book, he becomes a tribal guardian, an expert in all weapons, a great

R00128824738
Rick Revelle heeds the advice given to many writers: Write what you know. He’s also dedicated great chunks of time to the research for his books, set in the 1300s. A First Nations author who currently lives in Glenburnie, he’s written stories about North American life in the pre-contact era, before the continent’s first immigrants, Europeans, arrived. His next book, Algonquin Spring, the second in a trilogy, is set for release on October 10. His first, I Am Algonquin, debuted in 2013 to strong reviews. “They’re part of a trilogy that takes place in the early 1300s in what is now the Ottawa Valley, Northern New York State, Vermont, Quebec and the Maritime provinces. All are pre-contact.” I Am Algonquin is currently in
the curriculum of the largest school board in Manitoba. The book was selected by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation as one of the top 100 Young Adult Books that “Make you Proud to be a Canadian.” The books are unique. Revelle uses the books as a way of introducing Algonquin languages to readers. The books are written in English, but, in addition to being set in the pre-contact era, the books use an abundance of Native language words and phrases in the stories. I Am Algonquin uses Omàmiwinini. Algonquin Spring uses Omàmiwinini, Mi’kmaq and Mohawk languages, each of which is in danger of dying off as the speakers of the dialects now number in the hundreds or low thousands. Revelle, a member of the Ardoch Algonquin First Nation, said he’s a “history nut” who discovered that little is written on the Algonquin Nation. “There’s lots on Iroquois, Cherokee and other First Nations, but when you Google Algonquin, you come up with canoe making,” he said. “I went to see the movie
LIS NEW TIN G!
There’s truth in this fiction
how this country was built.” Revelle didn’t start writing his books until he was 56. He says that writing is the sugar topping on his life. Retired from Nortel after 30 years of work, he said he likes to golf in the summer and read, write and do his research in the winter. His research has brought him into contact with Native speakers from as far away as Labrador in the east and South Dakota in the west. He wanted to find out how the Lakota saw the world and travelled to South Dakota to do that. It’s his devotion to detail and a commitment to reflecting true Native life and history that keeps Rick Revelle’s work real. You’ll have a chance to meet Rick Revelle next month following his October 10 book release. His first few stops will be in southern Ontario. On October 18 from 3 to 5 p.m. he’ll be doing a signing at Novel Idea
in Kingston. “Kingston’s been good to me,” he said. Mark Bergin on Twitter @markaidanbergin.

hunter and paddler.” In the second book, there are two women who are lesbians and strong warriors. “In aboriginal societies, gay people had a certain place,” said Revelle. “They looked after the elders. The gay people would look after an elder who was dying. If there were any orphans in the society, gay Natives would raise them.” Revelle explained that he wanted to show how homosexuals fit into aboriginal society. “In Native society, gays were accepted as much as heterosexuals. They were just a part of
society. There was room for them in society. There always has been.” Rick Revelle said it’s important to learn about Native cultures. His books bring an understanding of First Nations through stories that serve as teaching tools. For example, some of the stories show how all the family groups work together so everyone is cared for. “Algonquin life was based on family units,” said Revelle. “They didn’t live in longhouses. They gathered in the summer in large groups until the harvest. In the winter they broke into small family units so they didn’t delete food supplies in one area.” The books are written in such a manner that the reader learns about Algonquin languages. “If I’m talking about an animal, person or place, the Algonguin language is used,” said Revelle. “The first time you see it in the book, you would see it in Mi’kmaq with the English word behind it.” Revelle has visited many educational settings and book signing locations where he’s heard some odd questions like, “How long have you been an Indian?” or “What percentage Native are you?” “We don’t go by percentages,” he said. “I had a white father. Everyone before that is Native. That percentage thing is a government thing. They think that helps them get rid of the Native problem.” Revelle finds inspiration in many places, but said that there’s nothing like a train ride to get him writing. He has some book signing and speaking engagements in Winnipeg over the next year. He plans on taking a train to get there. “When I’m on a train, I get lots written,” he said. “The train is the greatest way to see the country. The train is

Laundry came with a ‘laundry’ list of procedures Nothing interfered with the Monday wash. Or for that matter, the Tuesday ironing. Monday night, after the clothes hung on the line all day, they were brought into the kitchen stiff as boards. Wrinkles were smoothed out of Father’s overalls and the boys pants, socks matched and rolled into balls, and hand towels folded just right. Some of the laundry, like my sister Audrey’s and my blouses had a bath in a basin of water and starch

before being hung on the line on Monday, and they too could stand up alone when dried out. Before we went to bed on Monday night, Mother would put the flat irons on the reservoir at the back of the stove, just to warm them. Because once breakfast was over, the fry pan washed and put away, the irons would be moved to the front of the Findlay Oval to get burning hot and ready for the ironing. Winter or summer, come Tuesday, the old kitchen stove had to be raging hot, or the irons would never be ready for the work ahead. The ironing board was nothing more than a plank wrapped with a few layers of well-worn flannelette sheets, and then placed between the backs of two kitchen chairs. Once everything was in place, Mother took a used vinegar bottle and filled it with water and tucked in a stopper with holes in it. Everything that had been starched, and the flour bag tea towels, and pillow slips, Father’s Sunday shirt were well

sprinkled with the vinegar bottle water and then rolled into tight sausages and stacked at one end of the kitchen table, close to the ironing board. All the time the flat irons on the stove would be getting hot, absorbing the heat from the raging fire inside. When I wasn’t away to the Northcote school, I loved to sit at one end of the table and watch Mother iron. There was a clamp affair with a smooth wood handle that fitted over the flat irons, and using a thumb press, Mother could change the irons when they cooled down and would no longer do the job. I thought that was very clever indeed. But the cleverest trick of all, I thought, was when Mother tested the iron to see if it was hot enough. She spit on the end of a finger and quickly tapped the bottom of the iron...if it sizzled, it was ready to use. If it didn’t, she moved over to another iron on the stove and tested it the same way. She did it so quickly, she never burned her finger, which I learned one day could happen if you didn’t pay attention. That day I was allowed to iron the tea towels. They, of course, were rolled up in tight little sausage shapes, and I laid one out flat on the

mer kitchen, and the flat irons allowed to cool down on the reservoir before being put on top of the warming closet on top of the stove waiting for the next Tuesday’s day of ironing. Mother read in the Renfrew Mercury about a new type of iron that used gas to heat it. But she was having none of that. It was enough that she worried constantly about us either freezing to death in our beds on a cold winter’s night, or meeting our Maker from a fire in the winter when the Findlay Oval was plugged to the gunnies with blocks of wood to help keep us warm. She didn’t need a gas iron that could explode and blow us all to pieces, all in the name of moving up to a modern convenience. No siree, the old flat irons would do just fine!

ironing board, clamped the holder over an iron on the stove, spit on the end of my finger, and connected with the iron. Of course, I wasn’t quick enough, and I was sure I had fried the end of my finger! I soon learned to barely touch the iron and to make sure there was plenty of spit before contact. Ironing was a serious business back then. It took Mother the better part of Tuesday to complete the job. On a summer’s day, the heat in the kitchen was fierce, just to keep the irons hot on the Findlay Oval, and Mother’s face poured sweat. When it got too hot to bear, she would put the iron back on the stove, and go out to the grape arbour with a glass of water and sit for a spell...just long enough to cool down and rest her tired back. And then it was back to the job that consumed every Tuesday. When the last of the ironing was done, clean, starched blouses hung on wire hangers all around the kitchen. Father’s Sunday shirt would be on the back of a chair. The tea towels would be spread out to make sure they were perfectly dry before being put neatly in the drawer on the back-to-the-wall cupboard. Everything had to be tidied up before supper. The ironing board tucked behind the door in the sum-

Carmaker scandal may result in closer look at emissions technology
By now most of us have heard more than enough about the Volkswagen emission scandal. Just in case you were off the planet for the last few weeks; in 2013 independent researchers at West Virginia University were commissioned by the Independent Council on Clean Transportation to perform a series of emissions tests on diesel powered passenger vehicles. They ran tests on a VW Jetta, a VW Passat, and a BMW X5. The BWM’s emissions on the road matched laboratory test results, but the two VWs were considerably higher on the road than in the lab (up to 35 times their posted rates). After some investigation it was discovered that the VWs were equipped with software that only activated the emission control systems during stationary testing and deactivated them when the vehicles were on the road. This all came to light a few weeks back and VW execs quickly admitted their deception and their global CEO has since resigned. It
turns out this game has been playing out for six model years (2009 to 2015) and now the EPA of the U.S. along with a growing list of regulators around the world are sharpening up their pencils calculating the fines they are about to slap on VW (we’re talking billions here). U.S. and Canadian lawyers are warming up the class action lawsuits, VW dealers have been forbidden from selling any of the affected models, the EPA refuses to certify any 2016 VW diesels, and their stock value has tanked. While we can all shake our heads and fingers at VW for being so dishonest and environmentally unfriendly, a big question begs to be asked. How did VW get away with this for six years? They sold over 11 million vehicles with the ‘defeat’ software with over 500,000 of those being sold in North America. And could any reasonably intelligent person believe that other carmakers don’t have this capability to cheat an emissions test? Here and south of the border federal regulators rely heavily on automakers to supply them with test data confirming that their products meet emissions’ standards and fuel economy ratings. While we can all depend on consumers to keep carmakers honest when it comes to fuel mileage, what about emissions? How
can the average (or even uber-tech) consumer know that their vehicle’s emissions are up to snuff? You can bet your last dollar that regulators will start some type of random testing on other vehicles (both gasoline and diesel powered) and if they find other makers fudging their numbers, then we may be in for a major overhaul of emission and fuel-economy certifications. And of course that won’t be cheap.
The cool fall weather is another reminder that winter driving will soon be upon us and it’s probably a good time for a few tips on snow tires. First, if you haven’t heard already, we live and drive in Canada and all-season tires are only good for all seasons in Florida or California. Yes, if you want to make it through a Canadian winter of driving unscathed, you’ll need snow tires (and four of them not two). Installing only two snow tires on any vehicle is far more dangerous than running on summer treads. It creates a drastically different grip between the front and rear of any vehicle, leading to unpredictable handling. Before you do some comparison shopping for winter tires (and it’s a good way to save money) take a note pad and get some details. Tire
retailers need to know your vehicle’s complete tire size. That info is embossed on the sidewall of the tire as well as on the vehicle info label on the driver’s door or door opening or in your owner’s manual. Passenger car tires’ sizes will start with the letter ‘P’ followed by three numbers, followed by a space and two more numbers, the letter ‘R’ and finally two more numbers as in P225/75R17. The ‘P’ means passenger vehicle tire (as opposed to ‘LT’ standing for Light Truck). The next three numbers indicate the tread or face width in mm, the next two numbers represent the side wall height, ‘R’ means radial tire, and the last two numbers indicate the rim size in inches (completely logical isn’t it?). It’s never a bad idea to compare the sizing printed on the tires with the spec on the door label; they should match. If they don’t, you should almost always go with the carmaker’s spec. Snow tires for passenger vehicles can be sorted into two main categories; traditional snow treads and ice radials. The ice tires have relatively smoother tread but still deliver excellent traction due to the tread’s design and the rubber compounds used. Their big benefit is that they are almost as silent as summer tires and this can be important for drivers used to quiet rides. They also

have a lesser negative effect on fuel economy. Traditional snow tires with their large blocky tread designs are better in deep unpacked snow, so if you’re the first one out on a long driveway or if you travel a lot of last-to-be-plowed back-roads, this might be a better choice. Check out our next issue for some tire pricing tips, alternate sizing, and the benefit of a separate set of winter rims.

Community groups come together to provide better services to immigrants By Mandy Marciniak
Imam Sheharyar Shaikh at the Islamic Society of Kingston on Sept. 25.
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – According to the Kingston Community Health Centre (KCHC) Kingston welcomes about 1,500 immigrants each year; these newcomers require assistance as they transition and settle and now, three organizations in Kingston are banding together to help make this transition a bit easier. On Sept. 25, representatives from the Islamic Society of Kingston (ISK), Kingston Community Health Centres (KCHC) and Family and Children’s Services of Frontenac, Lennox and Addington (FACSFLA) came together to sign a partnership agreement to work together for immigrant families and children in the Kingston community. “Our goal it is to help the families that are new to Kingston cope with the challenges, especially when it deals with young children,” explained Imam Sheharyar Shaikh of ISK. “At ISK we do play a supporting role, but I think it is time now that we look towards professional organizations that can help as well.” The partnership or ‘Shared Journey’ has been in the works for the past two years and all of the organizations are looking forward to seeing it all come together. “We look forward to working more closely with the ISK and the KCHC,” said Steve Woodman, executive director for FACSFLA. “This is a promise for us to grow in our understanding and appreciation of different cultures. It is a recogni-

tion that even with better understanding we can never fully understand the differences and that we need to work alongside the family support systems and community services to get the help these families need.” While all of these services have provided programming for immigrants in the past, there are limitations to what they can do and Shaikh is looking forward to having a place to refer members of his congregation to. “Right now, a lot of our congregation doesn’t know that these other services are available,” he said. “We do counselling, but if there is something beyond what we can do, we can refer to these other services. It makes it easier.” The overall message of the announcement was that it ‘takes a village’ when it comes to helping new immigrants and that ‘village’ is well on its way to being created. “With so many new immigrants coming to Kingston every year in different capacities, we really try to focus on removing the barriers for them,” said Hersh Sehdev, executive director of KCHC. “This is a great opportunity to build a foundation of services to help newcomers to our area and that is something that is so necessary and beneficial.”

Maintain tire balance and alignment for a smooth ride It is easy for motorists to take their tires for granted when everything is working correctly. Wheels and suspension systems bear the weight of cars and trucks and must bear the brunt of rough roads, pot holes and any additional obstacles, so some wear and tear is to be expected. Many drivers know to monitor their tire pressure, but it’s also important to check for worn treads and inspect tires for punctures or damage. Proper tire alignment and balance also is essential for a comfortable and smooth ride. Balance Balancing tires involves equalizing the weight of the combined tire and wheel assembly so that each tire spins smoothly on the road. Tires are mounted on the wheel assembly, and the chances of this assembly having precise weight distribution is nearly impossible without a little help. According to Discount
Tire, the slightest imbalance in the tires, even as little as half an ounce, can be felt by drivers. Unequal mass can make tires wobble, causing noticeable vibrations. Mechanics will test tire balance by putting it on a balancing machine. The machine will spin the tire and determine the tire’s heaviest point. Counteracting weights will be placed on the tire hubs to create a more uniform balance of weight. Lead weights are often used, but some are being phased out for other metals, such as zinc, because of the medical and environmental implications of lead. Tires that are not balanced will not only cause vibration, they also can lead to uneven wear. Alignment Tire alignment is another way to reduce wear on tires and help avoid steering and “pulling” problems. Bridgestone Tires defines
tire alignment as an adjustment of the vehicle’s suspension, or the system that connects a vehicle to its wheels. When tires are not properly aligned, drivers may notice uneven tread wear. Misaligned tires also may cause the vehicle to pull to the left or right. Drivers who notice their steering wheel is off-center or vibrating when they are driving may need to adjust their tires’ alignment. Camber, or the inward or outward angle of the tire when viewed from the front of the vehicle, will be adjusted. In addition, “toe,” or the extent to which the tires turn inward or outward when viewed from above, will be adjusted. Caster angle also helps balance steering, stability and cornering. Caster is the angle of your steering axis when viewed from the side of your vehicle. When tires are balanced correctly and aligned, vehicles will offer a smooth ride with little to no vibrations. Having tires serviced can maximize their performance and lifespan.
