Kingston welcomes 71 new Canadian citizens By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Heritage News – Last week, as many people celebrated a very old Canadian, others gathered at Memorial Hall to celebrate new Canadians. On Friday, Jan. 9, Kingston welcomed 71 new Canadian citizens during a very special citizenship ceremony. “It is so exciting to be here in this building, on this occasion and as we kick off a weekend of celebrations in this city,” said Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Chris Alexander. “This was from 18411844 the capital of the united provinces of Canada and when I look out on all of you, I think of people who might have been sitting where you are many years ago who were essential in the formation of this country.” While citizenship ceremonies are typically held in Ottawa, this special ceremony was organized by the KEYS Job Centre, Kingston Community Health Centres and the Kingston Immigration Partnership as part of Sir John A. week. Many family members, friends, dignitaries and eager new Canadians packed into Memorial Hall for the ceremony. Later, they were treated to a special Sir John A. performance and reception. MP for Kingston and the Islands Ted Hsu proudly attended the festivities; he reflected on the uniqueness of Canada and emphasized the importance of making the country your own. “Today we want to celebrate the great diversity that we have in Canada. At each of these ceremonies we are reminded of this diversity,” said Hsu. “Now it is your
country and I want you to help it and make it better. Participate in government and community organizations. We need you. Canada needs you. Take the good things that you have brought over and add them to Canada and help make Canada even better.” After taking the oath of citizenship in both French and English, each new citizen was called up to receive their paperwork and a new Canadian flag. They greeted and mingled with officials as they took in the fact that they were now Canadian. After everyone returned to their seats, Senior Judge Renata Brum Bozzi emphasized the importance of the day. “Being Canadian is more than having a piece of paper that says you are Canadian or having a passport,” she said. “It is a covenant between you and your country. As Canadians, you are becoming part of an open, tolerant, trusting country, a country grounded in the rule of law and upon democratic principles. In becoming Canadian citizens, you have acquired immeasurable
wealth.” This wealth is still felt by other Canadians, including Mayor Bryan Paterson, who commented that being Canadian is what he is most proud of. He encouraged all of the new citizens to work hard and get involved in their new communities. “I believe that the best place to start in making your country better is within your own community,” he added. “I look forward to working with you and I look forward to seeing your talents and your passion and skills working towards making our community here in Kingston a better place.

News – From books to bedrooms, the former Indigo store downtown could have a new use. Joseph Abramsky and Sons Limited, owner of the vacant commercial building at 259-265 Princess Street, wants to convert the second floor into residential units. “A conversion of the second floor of the existing four-storey building is proposed to add eight residential units, seven 1-bedroom units and one 2-bedroom unit,” according to a planning department report. While the owners want to rezone the second floor for residential tenants, they intend to keep the main level zoned for commercial uses. The first and second floors of the building operated as Indigo book store for several years until it closed two years ago. The lower floors have remained largely vacant ever since. Eight parking spaces for the new tenants would be located on an adjacent site off Queen Street, which the landlord also owns. The residential conversion application was the focus of a public meeting held Jan. 15. City planners took public comments into account before making a recommendation to the planning committee on whether the conversion should proceed. However, planners note that more housing in the downtown is encouraged in the Official Plan. The upper two floors of the Abramsky building are already used as 16 loft apartments. The building is over a century old and was the longtime home of the Abramsky furniture store. The store closed in 1996, and a subsequent renovation earned
it a Heritage Award when the lower floors were converted into retail uses for Indigo, a downtown fixture for nearly a decade. “In 2013, Indigo Books closed, leaving a large two storey retail space vacant on Princess Street,” according to a report by Colbourne & Kembel Architects. The owners tried unsuccessfully to find new retail tenants but there is a “limited market for large two storey retail spaces,” said the architect. On the other hand, there is strong market demand for downtown residential units, which is why the owner wants to convert another floor into apartments. “The conversion has no impact on the neighbourhood in that it is contained within the existing building envelope,” the architect noted in supporting the rezoning application. The Abramskys intend to continue seeking a retail tenant for the building’s ground-level floor. The apartment proposal is the latest in a series of residential developments underway in the downtown core as more properties are repurposed. BPE Development is in the process of converting the former Queen Street United Church at 221 Queen Street into 35 luxury condominiums and offices, called The Tower, at a cost of $16 million. The not-for-profit Options for Homes is also nearing completion of its Anna Lane 115-unit condominium building at Bagot and Queen Streets at an estimated cost of $25 million. Meanwhile, Homestead Land Holdings, one of Kingston’s largest apartment landlords, recently purchased two surface parking lots on lower Queen Street and is expected to unveil residential/commercial development plans soon.

City taking another kick at the can to reduce garbage output Reporter
News – Kingston homeowners could be looking at stricter rules to dispose of their garbage in order to help the city divert more trash away from the dump. Previous councils had set an ambitious residential waste diversion goal of 65 per cent by the year 2012. But the reality remains far short of the target. The landfill diversion rate cur-
rently stands at around 55 per cent – about half of what we toss out heads for the dump, and the other half is recycled - a figure that’s remained relatively unchanged since 2010. This is despite increased public education and a greater focus on collecting organics and recyclables. “The goal was not achieved and council needs to create a new waste diversion goal and target date with strategies to achieve them,� said John Giles, the city’s R0012769012
There’s
manager of solid waste. In his information report presented to the environment, infrastructure and transportation committee Jan. 13, Giles outlines several reasons why Kingston has failed to reach the waste diversion target. He says Kingstonians have not fully embraced compost and recycling pick-up as much as officials had hoped. According to a 2014 audit of the disposal habits of 100 random households in various neighbourhoods, 50 per cent of trash found in garbage bags could have been diverted – 13 per cent through blue and grey box recycling and 37 percent to green bin organics collection. In fact, only about 40 per cent of Kingston homeowners use green bins on a regular basis since it was launched five years

ago, Giles noted. The result is that the city collected 40,795 of residential garbage in 2013; 18,108 tonnes ended up in a landfill and 22,687 tonnes were diverted through recycling. “In order to achieve a 65 percent diversion rate ‌ (an additional) 4,000 tonnes of landfilled waste would need to be diverted,â€? he explained. The question is how to do it? City officials are now seeking guidance from councillors on establishing a new diversion target with a deadline year, and strategies to achieve the goal. Giles laid out several scenarios for discussion with the potential to increase diversion. Among them: -full user pay with garbage bag tags required for all garbage, -reduced collection frequencies where one untagged bag is collected every other week to encourage more recycling, -clear garbage bags with bans on recycling or organics placed in them, -reinstate large item pick-up for discarded household appliances to be sold as scrap. Councillors are expected to examine the options and come up with recommendations as early as
February. Council last dealt with the contentious garbage debate in 2011 when they decided, by a close 7-6 vote, to limit the number of untagged garbage bags or containers to one per household per week starting in the spring of 2012, with $2 tags required on each additional bag. There are exceptions for those with medical notes, and two bag weeks are still allowed following New Year’s Day, Victoria Day and Labour Day. During the 2011 debate, concerns were voiced that reducing curbside trash would lead to more illegal dumping in the rural areas, while others said the policy would be viewed as punishing large families. “This is a tax on larger households. This is a tax on families,� said then-councillor Bryan Paterson, who is now the mayor. He predicted the plan would not only create financial hardship for many families but cast councillors as money hungry service slashers without a corresponding decrease in taxes. Kingston has continued to reduce garbage bag limits from the three that were allowed in 1999, down to two untagged bags in 2006, and now at one.

Kingston’s food truck vendors get new ‘healthy’ menu rules Reporter
News – The City of Kingston is telling certain food truck operators to go healthy or go home. Councillors approved a new policy starting in 2016 to hand out permits to sell food in municipal parks based, in part, on the operator’s ability to offer healthier menu choices. “I think it’s a good thing. It’s basically giving encouragement to the industry to provide good quality and healthier choices and more choices to Kingston residents,� explained mayor Bryan Paterson. He added: “I think it’s really a trend that’s taking off across cities and across communities.� The new Park Refreshment Vehicle Policy sets out several criteria by which food vendors will be judged before they can get an annual permit to sell their food in prime public places. The policy will cover vending in Belle Park, Breakwater Park, City Park, Confederation Park, Grass Creek Park, Lake Ontario Park, Memorial Centre Park, Macdonald Park and Victoria Park.
The meat of the policy is to give favourable consideration to those vendors that can provide healthy, local, organic food options, sustainable business practices and offer more accessibility. Applicants that offer any or all of those options may get the nod to sell food in the parks. “It’s an important next step to offering a greater variety of choices,� agreed Coun. Peter Stroud. Even though it was approved unanimously, some councillors worry how the rules could affect long established food trucks that may not live up to the new standards and leave them open to “ambush� by out of town businesses. The extra one year timeframe before the policy comes into force will give the city’s licensing department ample time to educate vendors to “change their menus as far as healthy foods, local organic foods, accessibility� are concerned, explained community services commissioner Lanie Hurdle. But she says the limited number of permits that are offered each year are on a first come, first served basis, and offer no guarantees to exist-
ing food providers. “We can’t prioritize one business over another.� Mayor Paterson agrees that the policy will be applied fairly, and existing vendors will have time to make changes. “The word from our staff is that they’re happy to work with existing vendors to offer suggestions about what might make them more competitive. At the end of the day any business should be striving for any improvements. This policy is certainly in line with that.� The city’s new policy, which was launched at the urging of the previous council and included public input, does not apply to food truck or food cart vendors that operate through separate permits on the streets. However, the street policy for food vendors is currently under review. While the latest changes are fueled by a growing public appetite for healthy food choices, the mayor says vendors don’t have to go completely low-cal. He added: “You’ll still be able to get a greasy burger and fries. We just also want the option to go for the salad.�

at Council last week as a delegation to plead his case, but he said despite showing pictures of Red Oak and Bebris under water, he wasn’t looking for immediate action. “Everybody realizes 2014 was an unusual year,” Kendall said. “The runoff was even with the lake. “But I’m here following up on a December visit because there are so many new members of Council, evidence of an upset electorate.” Kendall said another reason for his delegation was to push for a “overall roads plan.” Central Frontenac did have an overall roads plan several years ago which was drafted by then Public Works Manager John Simcock. However, said plan hasn’t been mentioned much in recent years. Kendall did note that there has been work done on the roads in question, beginning in November of 2013 when six inches of gravel compound was added to Bebris east of Red Oak, which, he said, “assisted in the removal of the annual rutting process and succeeded in causing the road not to completely flood during the spring runoff.”

This was followed in 2013 by gravel added to the western portion of the road as well as Red Oak and Baker Valley Roads. In 2014, the intersection of Baker Valley Road and Lakeshore Road “received major attention,” he said, with ditching along Lakeshore and the widening of both roads, and the removal of the yield signs on Baker Valley and the addition of a stop sign on Lakeshore at the intersection. He said the residents of the roads recognize both that work has been done and that 2014 was an unusual year but there is still work required including ditching, brushing, and grading. He also said that “during the upgrade process to Bebris Road, Township staff determined that a 6 inch rise in the road would be sufficient to avoid the Spring flooding. “History has now proven this increase in depth has not been sufficient and that during regular runoff periods the water level encroaches the road in several places.” Finally, Kendall said that the new yield sign at the top of Red Oak where it meets Baker Road has been causing residents problems in that slowing down on the upward incline to comply with the yield sign is difficult in the winter months. Mayor Frances Smith was sympathetic. “There’s no rock in the road and there’s swamp and swamp on either side,” she said. “That can be in the file for the new public works manager.” Coun. Cindy Kelsey said she’d visited the site just that day and agreed that the yield sign was in the wrong place.
A juicy take on a classic For aspiring writers demoralized by rejection letters, you aren’t alone. Jane Austen, who has written some of the greatest works in the English language, suffered her own rejections. She completed Pride and Prejudice in 1797. London publishers showed no interest. In fact, the manuscript was sent back in the mail. The book was not published until 16 years later in1813. It has since been recognized as one of the greatest books of all time and has sold millions of copies. There have been stage and movie adaptations. Thanks to Theatre Kingston, what is perhaps the most unique adaptation, Elizabeth-Darcy, is coming to the city. The playwrights’ (Hallie Burt and Kate Werneburg) website calls Elizabeth-Darcy “the Jane Austen you love with a squeeze of lemon.” Perhaps they should add that, in addition to a squeeze of lemon, you may be forewarned that there could be a shot of whiskey, a touch of cinnamon and a jolt of laughing gas in there as well. Burt and Werneburg’s take on Jane Austen’s famous love story runs in site-specific locations. In Kingston, the curtain will rise in the historic Frontenac Club Inn. Elizaberth-Darcy got its launch at the 2013 Toronto Fringe Festival. What’s so different and special about this production? You’ll find only two names on the cast list: Hallie Burt and Kate Werneburg. The actors/playwrights play all the roles. Monty Python’s phrase, “and now for something completely different” keeps popping into my mind. After the 2013 fringe launch, Burt and Werneburg had a hit on their hands that transited to such locations as Campbell House Museum in Toronto and Matheson House in Perth. Reviewing the Toronto production, Christina Kostoff wrote: “I’d hesitate to call such young performers virtuosos but that is the word that came to mind when I watched both Burt and Werneburg transition so elegantly from one character to another, in some cases literally at the drop of a hat.” If you’re not familiar with Pride and Prejudice and the inspiration for Burt and Werneburg’s title, Elizabeth Bennett is the 20-year-old protagonist of the novel; Fitzwilliam Darcy is the male protagonist. The two of them spend a lot of time in the company of one another, and it’s not always pleasant. At first. Things change. We’ll leave it at that. Despite a setting from a couple of centuries ago, this is immersive the-
atre of the future. It’s a do-not-miss production. Be forewarned: tickets are going to be scarce. “[Pride and Prejudice] is a story of repressed sensibility,” said Brett Christopher, Artistic Producer of Theatre Kingston. “It’s one of the great novels of all time, but it’s told by two women playing all the parts. This is really exciting theatre. It’s taking theatre out of seats in a darkened room. People will be moving around following the actors in Frontenac Club Inn. There’s food and wine and it’s a more immersive experience when you bump, jostle and laugh together.” Christopher explained that a big challenge when dealing with sitespecific immersive theatre is how to get tickets. To solve the problem, Theatre Kingston is selling tickets to this production through the Grand Theatre box office. Don’t be tempted to think that because the production is unique and funny that the playwrights haven’t taken the work seriously. Not only is the play unusual, the fates played their highly capable tricks influencing my interview with the playwrights. My phone lost its charge, along with my Kingston Internet connection being intermittent (so no Skype) precisely when I was supposed to interview Hallie Burt and Kate Werneburg at their Toronto locations. I managed to get email questions off to each of them. When their responses arrived, there were single responses. It seemed that even the interview reflected the unusual nature of this play. For attribution purposes, I asked who had responded to which question. The response: “Hi Mark, this is probably unusual, but we wrote the answers together, so technically both of us!” The pair met in the autumn of 2004 while attending Ryerson University’s Acting program. “We sat next to each other on a bus that was on its way to the Shaw Festival, we hit it off, and we’ve been fast friends ever since.” Elizabeth - Darcy is their first collaborative project. “We had always wanted to work together, preferably on a classical project. In the fall of 2012, we decided to embark on the journey of adapting and performing a twowoman version of Pride and Prejudice. We both loved the novel, wanted to perform a classical piece with meaty roles for women, and we both love performing comedy. It seemed like a natural fit.” As a writer, taking on such a beloved novel seems like a daunting task. How did Elizabeth-Darcy develop? “Our process was in three parts. First, we analyzed the novel very closely and slowly, over the course of many months. We crawled through the text, examining it from every angle, taking notes, perform-

The production will be presented by Theatre Kingston at the Frontenac Club Inn from January 29 to February 15. Tickets are limited and some shows are already sold out. Photos/ Dahlia Katz ing research, and doing exploratory exercises. Then, we began to piece the text together, pulling as much dialogue from the novel as we could. We were very keen to honour Austen as a writer and create a truthful re-telling of the text. Then we started rehearsing, and working with a director, stage manager and costume designer to bring the text to life.” They explained that theatre, or any art, is important because it has the potential to bring people together. It can move us and potentially change how we feel and think as individuals and collectively. “It can start conversations or compel us to be more compassionate, or it can give us relief from our day-to-day lives. It is a community act. The audience relies on the actors and the actors on the audience. It is something we create together.” They added that when theatre is good, it is art, which, at its core, is an attempt at telling the truth, and it is someone’s sincere expression of beauty. In their own words: “Care about theatre because at any given moment, someone could sneeze, and you would feel the droplets fall on you, someone could shout, and your ears would ache, someone could
fall in love, and your heart would break. Care about theatre because there are no do-overs, because there is no pause button. Because when we gather to tell a story, and to hear a story told, in this format, all our hearts beat together, we can all get bored together and smile, because there is sometimes an intermission where you can buy a drink. Because you had to leave your house to attend it. Because it’s traditional. Because it’s not traditional.” The work of these two playwrights is feeding theatre. It’s allowing theatre to grow beyond seats in a darkened venue. It’s not quite the theatre most people are used to. Neither is it quite street art or performance art. There’s structure, but it’s a new kind of structure. It’s the future. It’s juicy. It’s lemon. It’s also lime. And a tang of ginger. It’s theatre you don’t typically get to experience unless you travel to New York City and take part in immersive performances like this.
These young actors have some sage advice for those following them along the theatre path. “Expect opportunities to look different from how you imagined. Think of yourself as your own business, as well as an artist. Don’t compare your career or artistic journey to others’; there are endless ways to be an artist, and your contribution matters to the ecology of the community. Be prepared to work very hard, and find people who challenge, inspire, and complement you to be your collaborators. Listen to your heart and take care of it. Do some yoga.” Listen to them. There’s wisdom in their words. There’s magic in their theatrical madness. For tickets to Elizabeth-Darcy, visit kingstongrand.ca.

The challenges of winter driving
Editorial - We are almost halfway through this terrible season we call winter and for the most part it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been so bad. Sure weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a few ridiculously cold days and a few snowstorms, but compared to last year it feels like a nice, normal Canadian winter â&#x20AC;&#x201C; unless you do a lot of driving. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always thought of myself as a pretty competent driver. I got my licence as soon as I could and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been driving on my own since I was 16. When I was earning my undergrad at the University of Toronto I spent my final two years commuting from my parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; home to school and after dealing with Toronto drivers and rush hour on an almost daily basis, I felt like I could handle anything. I even dealt with a fair number of snowstorms and while I did get stuck a few times I always managed to get from point A to point B safely. When I moved to Sydenham I knew that winter would be challenging in
terms of driving. Not only is there more snow out here, the road we live on is gravel and is considered a private lane, so we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get plowed by the municipality when there is a storm. Because of this, Korey and I have a larger vehicle with 4-wheel drive and of course snow tires, but we quickly learned that sometimes that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really matter. The first winter Korey lived back at the lake was really challenging. The winter wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really a winter so much as a continuous season of rain, freezing, thawing and freezing again. This cycle did terrible things for the road and many mornings it felt like driving on a skating rink. Korey even had a bit of a scary mishap on the hill of our driveway; the car lost traction halfway up and rolled back down the hill into a temporary garage structure. Luckily Korey wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt, but the scenario certainly made us think more carefully about winter driving and the power of our vehicle. I think many drivers feel that if they have snow tires and a vehicle with 4-wheel or all-wheel drive they are invincible in the winter. While both of those things make you safer, there is still a lot of risk associated with winter driving. It seems like every snowstorm we have there are reports of massive
Kanata Kourier-Standard
car pileups on the 401 or crashes with transport trucks and cars. Even in the city there are a huge number of winter collisions and for the most part these could be easily prevented. I know that I am not a leading authority on safe driving, but I do have common sense, which tells me that if the roads are bad maybe plans need to change. My mother is a good example of this thinking. On a recent trip back from Ottawa, she actually stopped in Kingston and stayed with Korey and me while the roads were bad. She felt unsafe and needed to get off the highway, so she modified her plans, stayed the night and drove the next day when the highway was clear and sunny. She also commented that numerous trucks and cars were still in the ditch the next day and she was thankful she stopped. I wish more people thought like this; maybe we would have fewer winter driving casualties. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see any situation that is important enough to make me get on the 401 during a snowstorm. I know we all have busy lives and places to be, but if the weather is bad maybe you should evaluate whether driving on the roads is essential; in some cases, if it is worth your safety and your well-being.

In Our Opinion
Beer cabal offer just more corporate PR The Ontario beer landscape is in constant evolution. New local breweries seem to pop up every day, with each catering to wide variety of eclectic tastes for connoisseurs of lager, ale and stout. Nevertheless, the system for public procurement for large quantities of the sudsy stuff has remained virtually unchanged since the end of prohibition (1927). With a Stalinist style name and business model that delights both die-hard socialists and meta-loving hipsters in equal measure, The Beer Store remains the only place where you can purchase 12, 24, or 28 packs of your favorite cans or bottles; the deal between the LBCO and Ontario government was concluded in 2000, but not actually revealed until 2014 by intrepid investigative reporters at the Toronto Star. The chain has also been granted a retail monopoly on the ability to sell beer directly to consumers without actually brewing it on premises. So it looks like behind the smiling, familiar Soviet-cum-hipster façade, lies the murky truth that the Beer Store is privately owned and controlled by foreign corporate giants: 49 per cent Molson (jointly, Canada U.S. owned), 49 per cent Labbatt (Amheiser- Busch & InBev â&#x20AC;&#x201C; headquartered Belgium ) and 2 per cent Sleeman (owned by Sapporo of Japan), who together have were granted a license to squeeze as much money as possible out of Ontario consumers without their knowledge or consent. The revelations have led to multiple lawsuits and full-blown public relations crisis for the consortium. To appease lawmakers and consumers, the Beer Store has offered up a minority stake in its ownership to any Ontario craft brewers who want to pool their resources and make a bid. But is this really the best and most just way to proceed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to offer a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;buy-inâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to what has already been exposed to be a profiteering cartel? We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think so â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re willing to bet that lawmakers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see it that way either (they are, after all, looking to save their own skin too). The Ontario Liberals are already moving to either impose a franchise fee on the chain that the company would not be allowed to pass on to consumers. Only in the unlikely event that the multi-national brewers refuse the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;offer you cannot refuseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, would the monopoly will be broken up. Consumer tastes have evolved dramatically over even just the past decade, and finally it seems the foreign owners of the Beer Store have realized that if they want to win the heart of the province, they needs to open up their shelves up to local competition. However, it would appear that the vital issues of degree and speed of change are still very much up to the big wigs, both private and public. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem fair to us.

John Counter Blvd. poised to get two more business parks By Bill Hutchins Reporter

News – The recent widening of John Counter Boulevard may turn into a boon for local businesses. At least two business park proposals are currently making their way through the planning stages. The latest office cluster development, by Driveway Realties Limited, would see a vacant section of the former Novelis property redeveloped with about eight stand-alone buildings on the southeast corner of Sir John A. Macdonald and John Counter Boulevards. The developer is seeking permission to allow business-related activities on the seven hectare property at 1370 John Counter Blvd. The site is currently zoned for a mix of industrial and residential uses, plus a smaller area that’s designated for environmental protection. The planned development of one to four storey buildings would occur behind the existing Ultramar gas station on the corner, and cover a large swath of shrub lands flanking both John Counter Blvd. and Sir John A. Macdonald Blvd., with a possible
future road link to Hyperion Court, according to a city staff report. An independent justification report, prepared for the developer, says the site is served by two major arterial roads and the area is primed for business growth. “The proposed development is in an area anticipating exactly this type of development,” according to FOTENN consultants. The business park will generate between 450 and 500 additional vehicles a day. “These additional trips are expected to have minimal impact on the adjacent road network,” the report noted. City council will have the final say on the rezoning application, which first requires a public meeting and then a recommendation from the planning department. It’s the second major business park plan to surface along John Counter Boulevard in the past few months. Late last year, Fort Henry Investments Inc., a development company owned by Doug Springer, unveiled plans to construct nine small-scale office buildings with about 11,000 square metres of total floor space
- along with a gas station, convenience store and car wash – on vacant land across the street from the city’s bus terminal. The proposed business park would be built on a rectangularshaped lot covering nine hectares on the southeast corner of John Counter Blvd. and Leroy Grant Drive. The site at 1122 John Counter Boulevard is currently zoned for industrial uses, but the developer wants to rezone the land to allow commercial/ retail uses as well. Vehicle access to the business park will be along 410 metres of right in, right out frontage along John Counter Blvd. plus along 220 metres of frontage on Leroy Grant Drive. Rigney Street will also be extended southward into the site, which will have about 400 surface parking spaces. Politicians and planners haven’t yet weighed in on this development, either. The two proposed business park developments are to be located on opposite sides of the long-established Alcan Business Park, which is home to offices such as Intercall and Revenue Canada.

Former mayor all set to enter federal fray By Hollie Pratt-Campbell Editor
News - Mark Gerretsen, former mayor of Kingston and current federal Liberal candidate for Kingston and the Islands, never dreamed of going into politics growing up.
“I had no interest in it whatsoever,” he says. “It wasn’t until later on that I started to think about it.” Yet on Jan. 10, Gerretsen won his third consecutive election, defeating four other candidates for the federal Liberal nomination. Perhaps this success is no surprise
when one considers Mark Gerretsen grew up watching and learning from his father, John Gerretsen, who also served as mayor of Kingston before going on to represent the riding at the provincial level for many years. “He was passionate,” Gerretsen says. “He was in politics because he loved it…I think I do it for the same reason, too. You see an opportunity to fix something and then you go out there and you try to fix it.” That said, Mark has carved his own path in municipal politics over the past eight years, demonstrating some ideas and traits that are very different from his father’s. “I think I get my raw emotional side from the Italian side, not the Dutch side,” he laughs. “My dad doesn’t get heated as quickly as I do. I get more emotional very quickly.” He notes that he feels extremely humbled by the fact that he was chosen to carry the banner for the Liberal party in the upcoming election. “I’m looking forward to using the skills that I’ve developed running in other elec-
tions - I’ve run in three now - to define my campaign a little bit differently than some of the other ones.” Knocking on doors throughout the city and chatting with as many people as possible is key, he says. “I actually love campaigns. There’s so much adrenaline in them, so I love getting out there and walking around neighbourhoods. Sometimes you get people who yell at you but usually it’s people who are accommodating of the fact that you’re there. I’m looking forward to that.” Gerretsen says that his experience in municipal politics has given him insight into what the federal government can do for the city. “Having been mayor, I know how badly the City of Kingston needs to rebuild its infrastructure, and I think the federal government should be playing a role in that.” Affordable housing is another key issue: “I think we need a new national housing strategy in terms of how we’re going to build affordable housing throughout the country,” Gerretsen says, adding that the environment is another huge concern for
him as a candidate. “We have a 10-year-old and you kind of think, ‘wow, what’s this world going to look like 50 years from now when he’s older.’ That’s something that definitely keeps me up at night.” The date of the 2015 federal election is currently unknown, but one must be called by mid-October. “There’s a lot of speculation out there that there might be one in the spring so I’ll be ready regardless of when that happens,” Gerretsen says. “I’m hoping that it’s going to be sooner rather than later because I’m really anxious to get going knocking on doors.” So far, it has been determined that Gerretsen will face Nathan Townend of the Green Party in the upcoming federal election. The local NDP will determine their candidate at a Jan. 30 meeting; so far, Daniel Beals is the only candidate. The Conservative candidate is also yet to be decided, and the local party’s election meeting date has yet to be announced; so far, Andy Brooke is the only person to enter the race.

Bestselling author tackles origin of Canada’s No septic systems tested in Sharbot indigenous health disaster Lake need replacing — report By Aric McBay
R0012872706_0911
Canada is one of the healthiest countries in the world. But if the indigenous population here were treated as a single country, it would rank sixty-third. Why is there such a dramatic gap in such an affluent country? Dr. James Daschuk, an assistant professor at the University of Regina, spent 20 years working on his book Clearing the Plains: Disease, Politics of Starvation, and the Loss of Aboriginal Life. Since its release in 2013, that book has become an award-winning bestseller. Daschuk gave an interview while he was in Kingston for multiple speaking events presented by SALON Theatre around Sir John A. Macdonald’s birthday. “What’s the origin of the gap in health between indigenous people and mainstream people?” asked Daschuk. “That gap was created by government policy, even before there were settlers to speak of in the prairies. First Nations people didn’t lose their health, they almost had it taken away from them by these—really, I think they were cruel—policies.” A hundred and fifty years ago, indigenous people on the plains relied on excellent food provided by the buffalo herds. As Daschuk wrote, skeletal studies show that in the mid 1800s “peoples on the plains were perhaps the tallest and best-nourished population in the world.” But by the end of that century, most of those people had been confined to reserves by force, and their exemplary health had been replaced by starvation and diseases like tuberculosis. The eradication of the buffalo was a terrible blow for the people of the plains. The buffalo suffered both from cattle diseases imported from Europe as well as extreme over-hunting by settlers. And most of the mass-killing of buffalo wasn’t even for food. Tough buffalo leather was used to make machine-belts during the industrial revolution, so their hides were often used while the meat was left to rot. (American General Philip Sheridan also advocated exterminating the buffalo to starve indigenous people.) Before the buffalo herds had been fully destroyed, some First Nations had signed treaties with the Canadian government which gave up land but which required
Canada to give aid in case of a famine. Once that hunger occurred, Daschuk explained, John A. Macdonald and his subordinates were “heartless in a humanitarian crisis.” He added: “And they broke the law. They broke the spirit of the treaty, but I think they broke the word of the treaty as well.” Daschuk noted that Prime Minister Macdonald “was in charge of Indian Affairs for ten years after his return to power. So not only was he overseeing the construction of the railway, he personally oversaw the treatment of indigenous people.” Macdonald and the Canadian government used the crisis to force freely-moving people onto reserves where they were deliberately kept on starvation rations, in violation of the agreements Canada had signed. “The way he dealt with them was, essentially, to treat them cruelly, to break the treaties, and to starve them out of the way.” Daschuk describes the policy toward indigenous people under Macdonald’s government as one of “outright malevolence.” Once people were forced onto reserves, diseases like tuberculosis (which existed in the Americas before Columbus) became chronic health disasters. “It wasn’t just our ancestors coming, like in the earlier days, and introducing these unknown diseases,” Daschuk explained. “There were political reasons for these things.” Reasons for disease outbreaks on reserves include the policy of deliberate starvation that left people malnourished and weakened, along with overcrowding, and the use of the pass system, which restricted people from leaving the reserves to find outside food or employment. The health gap created in the late 1800s has continued through to the present day even though there are ample resources available to fix it. “I think a lot of us can just have the attitude of ‘out of sight, out of mind.’” Daschuk sees some signs of hope in a growing national discussion about Canada’s mistreatment of indigenous people. “I think young people are a lot more receptive, but I think that conversation is happening more and more.” “Once you know something, you can’t unknow it.”
By Craig Bakay Reporter
Gazette News — Of the 355 property owners in Sharbot Lake to whom information packages were mailed, 24 accepted the offer to have their septic systems inspected, Eric Kohlsmith from the Mississippi Rideau Septic System Office told Central Frontenac Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. “The goal for this season was 38 properties,” he said. The inspections were carried out between June 27 and Oct. 31. The good news was that of the 24 systems inspected, 10 systems were identified as having no concern and 14 needed some remedial work. “The MRSSO did not identify any systems that required replacement or additional information at the time of the inspections,” he said. He said that for the upcoming 2015 season, the MRSSO recommends that a Discretionary Septic System Maintenance Inspection Program be implemented as provided by the Ontario Building Code and Building Code Act amendments. No area was designated for a 2015 program. The hamlet of Sharbot Lake was chosen for 2014 because of the high number of lakefront properties and the fact that the west basin is a designated lake trout sensitive lake. There was some discussion as to mandatory inspections but the debate was left for another time. “I’m concerned about the affordability of mandatory inspections for many people but I guess this is not the time to address it,” said Coun. Brent Cameron. •••
Council gave its support to a project proposal by the Central Frontenac Railway Society to acquire and install railroad-themed playground equipment at Railway Park in Sharbot Lake. Council’s support was necessary to obtain funding. Representing the Society, Gary Giller said they expect more children’s attractions, such as the cutout photo stand, will lead to increased attendance. “Often, it’s not just the railway buffs who come, but it’s kids dragging parents and grandparents,” he said. “I think it’s an excellent idea,” said Coun. Tom Dewey. “It will get lots of use.” However, even though Giller said they’ve looked at safety concerns, such as not using pressure-treated wood for the wooden structures and researching to make sure any attractions would be “splinter-free,” CAO/Clerk Steven Silver said they may still have some concerns to address. “Play structures have to be certified every year by the Child Safety Council,” Silver said. Giller agreed to meet with Township staff to review safety requirements. “It would be a shame to get the funding for something we couldn’t build in the first place,” Giller said. ••• At press time, Canada Post had already announced the closure of the Godfrey Post Office. However, Mayor Frances Smith did ask members of Council and the public to call Canada Post to express opposition to the closure by calling 1-800=267-1177. “You still might be able to get some response if you ask for a supervisor or manager,” Smith said. “If they close it, we probably won’t get it back.”

Inspired by nature and So where do we go from here is really community the question Continued from page 20
into nature, and, today, off our video screens. Art can remind people that there’s a real world. There’s the impulse to create something unique. It’s good for people who do it, and those who see it. We’re bombarded with images and advertising. We’re fed so much on how we should think. It’s essential. When you’re doing art, whether it’s painting, music or dance, it’s healing. It’s like meditating. It helps you be in touch. It’s a way to feel you can control a bit of your world, create your world, create a positive world and get your message out there.” There’s a beautiful sense of natural flow to Lori’s art. Colors mingle, sometimes clash; shapes weave a web of intrigue. “A lot of my themes have to do with place, sacred places to me,” she says. “I’m realizing more and more how much I get inspired by my surroundings, by the seasons. Then I overlay that with almost dream imagery and playfulness in terms of color and
shape. That’s what interests me, as opposed to faithful representation of the place. I want there to be a conversation with the viewer, so the viewer has to think about what’s there rather than getting it right away. I love unusual color combinations. That engages emotion and hopefully there’s engagement between the art and viewer.” She says she walks almost every day in the woods or conservation areas for inspiration. “It’s like a walking meditation for me,” she says. “I often take my camera with me. I see interesting things and they become starting points for paintings.” You can find Lori Richards in Studio 214C at the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning. Her work is represented at Wall Space Gallery in Ottawa and Gallery Raymond in Kingston. Lori’s work will be exhibited in Toronto’s Artist Project contemporary art fair from February 19–22. Her website is loririchards.ca. Mark Bergin markaidanbergin.

Heritage news-Priority setting was the “agenda” for a recent special meeting of Frontenac Islands council. It was setup by CAO Darlene Plumley who in just a few months, during a difficult year including an election, has brought much order and efficiency to the operation of the township. CAO Plumley circulated a chart to council members requesting perceived township priorities and those heard from electors while by those campaigning. “So what you have before you is what you relayed to me as priorities, and I’m hoping we can prioritize them and determine what is manageable and how to accomplish them within a timeframe. This is an opportunity for council as well staff input,” she said. One section indicated common Howe and Wolfe Island priorities. Councillor Springgay called for a high, medium low ranking priority plus a code for payback (defined as essential for township, financial, other). “ To be determined as we go,” she said. Marketing Wolfe Island is important but she recognizes its difficult because of the ferry. “We have a lot of homes for sale on both islands and unless we do something we could have a lower tax base. If we want to grow, we have to think about how to communicate (market) what we have here. Deputy Mayor Natalie Nossal agreed that the good news sto@ ries about the islands must be told…. reminding all that Howe Island has a “24/7, 365 days” ferry service and Wolfe Island has done well with recreation and parks. While there was agreement that transportation and the ferries are the township’s highest priority, Nossal noted different transportation requirements for each is4:19 PM land that can’t be put under one umbrella. “There is It’s grandpa’s firstHowe’s time Foot Ferry and the some similarity between Simcoe Ferry , “but not really. Different solutions are in this partshe of town. needed in each case,” said. While CAO Plumley meets He doesn’t have any with MTO regularly, it was concluded that MTO and council members must meet more idea often. yet to decide whether to howMTO he gothas here, allow at least some cars and passengers on the WI how togoods’ get homedays as requested by the ferry ‘Dangerous township. A WI Committee for local transportation isor who he is. sues, parking, ticketing, etc. is a consideration.

The township presently calls upon Jewell Engineering Inc. regarding roads, evaluation, budgeting. Mayor Doyle said the township must plan for surface treating some roads when economically feasible. Jewell Engineering will be invited to advise council on next steps (in preparation for budget meetings). Other concerns included need for radar type www.medicalert.ca speed signs, village parking , snow fencing and so on.
1-800-668-1507
* It was also determined that the township requires a “go to” supervisor staff person to manage township operations (roads, waste management etc.) and will proceed to do so.. *No gas station on Wolfe Island is a major concern. Efforts are underway by CAO Plumley to move a considered to be ‘doable’ project forward, which would result in fewer vehicles on the ferry. *Waste Management is a high priority even if the closure of WI facility is delayed, as is recycling on Howe Island. Community committees / education /future initiatives were discussed. Mayor Doyle spoke of possible regional solutions. *OPP cost increases and Asset Management are two major, critical, costly and mandatory items facing the township requiring public explanation. OPP costs must be understood and services clarified. *Asset Management requires both a roads supervisor and engineering services to determine a long term plan. Is it an annual 1% special levy? A Tax increase? Is it borrow and buy? or save and buy? Communication with the public must be a priority at all times, about all issues but particularly on these latter two. All members of council and staff contributed to the discussion For instance a tax preamble was suggested as critical to bring realities of needs to taxpayers was suggested. Also suggested was a clarification and defining of WI Community Centre use, the Community Centre Board and the need for a hired manager for it and Big Sandy Bay, and for island promotion and development. *Howe Island is interested in more community health resources (wellness,blood clinics) and a permanent meeting centre. A market survey was suggested. *The Frontenac Islands Township website will be upgraded using county and local help so that it becomes the ‘where to go ‘ site for matters of importance to taxpayers and the public. A discussion regarding taxes took place. Members were reminded that no provincial grants for anything were forthcoming last year because from the province’s perspective Frontenac Islands taxes are low compared to other jurisdictions. Deputy Mayor Nossal said there is need for a dramatic change in how the township budgets in the future. “We should have increased taxes in the past,” she said. Around Town: An early morning completely destroyed the WI home of the Bob & Lynn Brown family. A neighbour seeing an unfamiliar light in the Brown’s home as she was passing at 5:15 am going to the ferry, stopped, banged at the doors and windows until she got some response, probably saving Mom and children. (Dad at work) The community has begun to collect funds for the family, who have lost everything. For more information contact: Lesley Mosier at (613) 385-1671. * FYI: MTO has posted a request for expression of interest (EOI) for acquisition of a design consultant to do a Preliminary Design and EA Study for the Wolfe Island Ferry and Docking Improvements.

Giving locally just good business, says soccer entrepreneur Sports - John Toufankjian has been using the game of soccer to help those in need since 2012, when he founded his business KICKIT2WINIT in Toronto. The company hosts an annual soccer tournament, then donates a portion of the proceeds to a local charity. “I am not a charity organization, Toufankjian explains. “We’re a regular, for-profit company. We run a business, predominantly [dealing in] marketing, advertising and event planning. Our mandate as a company is to ensure that at the end of our events, KICKIT2WINIT makes a donation to a local charity.” This year, KICKIT2WINIT is expanding to a number of other North American cities, including Hamilton, Ottawa, Miami, Ottawa and Kingston. The scheduled date for the 2015 tournament in Kingston is Saturday, June 27, and Toufankjian is looking for teams who want to get involved. “It’s open to anybody,” he says. “We are going to put up some posters at the actual soccer venues so local clubs [in Kingston], can look at what’s going on. But we also want to reach local businesses that want to support the event by putting in a corporate team.” He adds that he’s also looking for volunteers who might be interested in helping out at the event. The Kingston KICKIT2WINIT event will support Girls Inc. Limestone, a charity that provides life skills, education and mentoring
for girls. “This year we’re focusing our efforts on human trafficking,”says Toufankjian. “Everything to do with human trafficking, whether that’s child pornography, rape, violence against women, abuse, bullying, harassment, anything that embodies what we try to stand up for, which is women’s rights. That’s how we settled on Girls Inc. Limestone. It was close enough to what we’re trying to push as a message this year.” KICKIT2WINIT also helps raise awareness of the charities it supports through social media. “Between now and [the tournament], we’ll tweet them, we’ll Facebook stuff, we’ll promote their programs, whatever they want us to implement we’ll shout that out as well for them.” Local businesses who get involved are also promoted. “We want to promote this to businesses to get them to enter teams,” Toufankjian says. “It’s a good way of marketing for them. We’ll brand their logo, we’ll get them on our website, we’ll get them in our print [materials]. It’s a good way to support the community event and considering it’s going to be an annual tournament, it’s only going to get bigger in Kingston.” To learn more about KICKIT2WINIT or to register your team, visit www.kickit2winit. com or contact john@kickit2winit.com.

Events – For some, as soon as the word ‘feminism’ is brought up ideas of lectures and dull conversation immediately emerge, but a new play from the King’s Town Players (KTP) hopes to change that response. The play is called ‘Rapture, Blister, Burn’ and looks at the different life paths of two women who were once very connected. “They were college roommates and one chose a career in academia while the other chose a family and staying home to raise her children,” explained director and one of KTP’s founding members, Krista Garrett. “The play brings them together a number Kingston/Frontenac of years later and looks at the differences in their lives in a very comedic way.” The play also digs into the ideas of feminism and the choices or lack of choices women have when they are making life decisions. Garrett really connected to the main themes of the play and she hopes audience members will too. “The play focuses on how everything

is grey and not black and white, especially when it comes to feminism. There are so many viewpoints and the play looks at those viewpoints and at how things change as we age. The decisions we make as women in our 20s are quite often very different than decisions we make in our 40s or our 60s, and none of those decisions are any more or less right than the others.” Garrett was excited to take on the play, written by Gina Gionfriddo, especially since she hasn’t directed a play in almost five years. “I directed the inaugural show for KTP but haven’t since then. Part of our mandate at KTP is to make sure that we are inclusive rather than exclusive and in that vain I would more often than not put forward outside directors for our shows, but this one I really wanted to do.” The show also marks an annual return to the Kingston Yacht Club, an intimate and less conventional venue, but one that Garrett hopes will work well with the play. “The yacht club is great because the audience is very close and it also has sort of

KFPL celebrates literacy week By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Heritage Events – All of this cold weather is perfect for a variety of activities and reading is definitely one of them, especially reading as a family; the Kingston Frontenac Public Library hopes to see community members doing just that during literacy week, and they have a variety of activities planned to get families started. “Family literacy day is Jan. 27, but we’ve extended the celebrations to last a week here and throughout our branches,” explained Brianne Peters, children’s Librarian at KFPL. “We’ve held many of these events for a number of years now and I think it is a lot of fun.” Events include everything from special reading buddy programs to book inspired picnics and even evening classes about the best apps to use for reading development. “We have a program called ‘Raising Appy readers’. It is designed to show parents and

caregivers the latest research about reading and technology and also show them the latest apps for their children,” said Peters. “Families can bring their own devices to the program or we will have some on hand for them to try out.” KFPL is working to keep up with digital trends and while they have increased their number of eBooks over the past few years, they have also started focusing on different technologies to help kids develop their skills. “That is the direction we are moving in,” said Peters. “We want to be media mentors for families and the community, and we want the parents to know which apps are appropriate and helpful. Technology is an excellent resource and one that kids are definitely more drawn to now.” The literacy Brianne Peters, Children’s Librarian at KFPL, invites kids to ask staff to read to them during literacy week at week events also the library.

Make the most of your home appraisal When homeowners think about renovating their properties, many first need to secure some funding to finance such projects. Some may tap into the equity of their homes by refinancing an existing mortgage, while others may apply for home equity loans. Taking the latter approach may require certain steps, including an assessment of how much the home and property is worth. Home appraisals compare your home to neighboring properties to determine your home’s current market value. Homeowners can facilitate the process by having certain information readily available for the appraiser. When preparing for appraisers, homeowners should consider and collect the following information: • If your home was built on the largest lot in the community. • If you have made significant upgrades since it was last appraised, such as installing a new roof or siding. Don’t overlook smaller renovations, like extra insulation added or sealing drafty windows, which can increase a home’s value. • Proof that you have used sustainable resources or if you participated in any energy-savings programs. Naturally, any expansion projects, such as adding another bedroom or extending the footprint of the home, should be mentioned. A real estate appraiser is a certified, licensed professional who will do his or her best to determine the value of your home. The appraisal
provides banks with information that can tell loan officers if the house is worth the loan amount. Expect to pay a fee for the appraisal, which is generally included in your closing costs. The appraiser gathers information for the appraisal report from a number of sources, but the process often begins with a physical inspection of the property, both inside and out. He or she also will compare your home against a few others in the neighborhood, which are known as comparables, or comps. Appraisals will be based on recent prices of comparable properties as well as other factors. Apart from the improvements done to the home, there are other ways to get a higher appraisal amount. The appraiser may consider the overall maintenance of the home and property. It is wise to consider curb appeal and ensure the home is clean and maintained when the appraiser arrives. Minor repairs or common maintenance can impress the appraiser. Removing clutter and cleaning up the home’s interior can make the home appear larger, possibly increasing its value as a result. It may be worth it to invest some more money into the property before having an appraisal done. A study sponsored by the National Association of Realtors says wood floors, landscaping and an enclosed garage can lead to a more favorable appraisal. An appraiser will spend roughly
30 minutes in a home. Try to give that person space to do his or her job. Following the appraiser around during an inspection can raise a red flag that something is wrong with the house that you don’t want to be seen. Turn lights on throughout
the house, make sure the heating or cooling system is functioning at full capacity and keep pets locked away. Move items that can impede access to basements or attics. An accurate assessment of the value of your home will give banks
the information they need to determine loan amounts for future renovation projects. Providing background information on the home and having a well-maintained property can improve the chances of a favorable appraisal.

Factors to consider before selling your home Selling a home is no small undertaking. It often pays to be patient when putting a property up for sale, but waiting for an acceptable offer can be stressful, especially for those homeowners who have already found their next homes. Because so much tends to be riding on the decision of whether or not to sell a home, homeowners would be wise to consider the following factors before putting that “For Sale” sign in their front yards. • Motivation: Many homeowners sell their homes because their families are growing and they have outgrown their current residences. Others may recognize a seller’s real estate market and want to strike while the iron is hot, while still others might be moving for a new job. The factors that motivate homeowners to sell their homes vary with each individual case, but prospective sellers should keep in mind that moving can be expensive, and finding a new home may not be so easy, nor is the grass necessarily greener on the other side. When deciding if now is the best time to sell your home, make sure you will be selling for the right reason. That can make the often trying process of selling a home a lot easier to handle. • Market: The local real estate market is another factor to consider when deciding whether or not to sell your home. A home is a significant investment, and you want to earn as substantial a return on that investment as possible. Selling when the market is struggling will make your investment less valuable. Research recently sold homes in your neighbor-
hood to get an idea of how much you can expect to get if you sold your home in the current market. It might be worth it to sell now, or it might pay off to be patient and wait until the market rebounds. • Kids: Selling your home will impact your family just like it will impact your bottom line. Unless you plan to move down the street or to another home in your community, selling may mean you and your family no longer see your friends and neighbors. That can be a difficult adjustment, especially for school-aged kids who will have to adjust to a new school. The potentially negative impact that selling can have on your children may not be worth the financial benefits of selling, so the decision of whether or not to sell should not be taken lightly by homeowners who also happen to be parents. • Quality of life: It can be difficult to turn down an opportunity to make a lot of money on your real estate investment. But if you plan to sell and move further away from your office and your friends and family, the financial windfall you earn when selling your home may not be worth the sacrifices you have to make in order to earn that money. Studies have shown that longer commutes can elevate stress levels, and even the most affordable property may not be worth moving to if you won’t be able to enjoy the home with your friends and family. When deciding whether or not to sell their homes, many homeowners make the decision a strictly financial one. But there is more than money to consider when deciding if now is the right time to sell your home.

Taylor & Ruys, http://www.kingstonagents.com/ the award-winning real estate professionals at Century 21, the world’s real estate leader, has helped many clients to weather tough decisions such as what type of home to buy. Nowadays, there are a wide selection of homes on the market such as condominiums, luxury townhomes, semi-detached and detached, but neither reflect a better choice. Rather, when deciding to purchase or rent, a prospective homebuyer needs to conduct some thorough research on the market and types of homes available and what best suits their lifestyle needs. Homebuyers should ask themselves these questions: • Do you want to rent or buy a home? • What are your short term and long term goals? Is investing important to you? • Consider your lifestyle and the type of home that would meet your needs. What type of layout appeals to you - traditional or modern open concept? • Are you looking for a brand new home or an older home? What price range? • Are you planning to sell your present home and upgrade or downsize? • What type of community do you want to live in?

Sometimes the constant work and mess of construction is too much to bear. Afford yourself time away by visiting relatives or staying at a hotel. Even a single night away can provide the relief you need. A home that is undergoing a remodel can be a less than comfortable environment. But homeowners who have never before lived through a renovation project can take several steps to make the process go as smoothly as possible.

A home in disarray can be stressful, but continue to visualize the end result and the mess wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother you so much. â&#x20AC;˘ Establish a contingency plan. Bathrooms and kitchen renovations are typically the most disruptive home improvement projects. Going without a kitchen can make it difficult to enjoy meals at home, while a bathroom remodel may require you to navigate water shutoffs.

Check in with workers to get daily progress reports. â&#x20AC;˘ Have reasonable expectations. A renovation project may exceed its budget and take longer than initially expected. Understanding that these potential setbacks might be part of the process will make it easier to handle them when the foreman speaks to you about any issues that arise. â&#x20AC;˘ Accept the mess.

When working with contractors, get all agreements in writing and spell out exactly what you desire in a home renovation. Photo references can help guide contractors and architects. Ask for the full picture of what can be expected with the work, from demolition to the punch list. Knowing what lies ahead can keep you grounded throughout the project. â&#x20AC;˘ Discuss work each day and set payment schedules. Make payments contingent on work completed.

Home renovations are typically exciting, as homeowners get to see the visions of their dream homes come to light right before their very eyes. Turning an outdated bathroom into a modern oasis or an empty basement into the ultimate man cave strengthens the sense of attachment homeowners have with their homes. But few home renovation projects go from start to finish without experiencing a few bumps in the road along the way. Such bumps can be difficult to handle for homeowners working on their first renovation projects, but there are many ways for novices to navigate the sometimes murky waters of home improvement projects and
