News – A long-time Kingston shelter for women will get special funding from council, contrary to staff’s advice. Councillors narrowly voted to spend $155,000 to keep Dawn House open for 2015, even though it did not formally apply to receive a new fee-for-service subsidy from the City of Kingston. The shelter was slated to lose its entire municipal subsidy in June as the city shifts to a new Housing First model. But Coun. Jeff McLaren argued Dawn House is worthy of special consideration. He managed to persuade council in a 7-6 vote to save the subsidized 10-bed facility from almost certain closure once its municipal subsidies cease. “The time to close a shelter is only when it’s not needed anymore,” he told council, explaining that Dawn House is constantly running at capacity. He introduced a budget amendment Jan. 22 to provide Dawn House with the extra funding, while instructing staff look for ways to keep it open beyond 2015. Coun Rob Hutchison also backed calls to provide Dawn House with interim funding to continue to help victims of domestic violence or mental health issues. “Dawn House is turning away 55 potential clients a month.” Coun. McLaren claims the agency did not seek to become a service provider under the Housing First contract terms due to a communication mix-up over whether it was eligible to apply. Dawn House operates a female-only facility and was under the assumption that only co-ed facilities could get future contracts.

However, community services commissioner Lanie Hurdle later confirmed Dawn House was given the same application material as other agencies. “Elizabeth Fry Society, who is an agency that serves women-only, did apply. So obviously the concept of co-eds only being eligible (for funding) did not seem to be an issue for other agencies.” The application process did seek specific bidders that could provide women-only segregated service in times of crisis. Any agency, including Dawn House, could have applied last year to become a shelter service provider in 2015. The Elizabeth Fry Society ended up getting the contract, Hurdle explained. Hurdle also tried to clear up misconceptions, some repeated by councillors, that Kingston is reducing the number of shelter beds under the Housing First model. She says the city currently funds 74 beds in different shelters, including Dawn House. As of July, a total 84 beds will be funded. “We’re actually increasing our beds without Dawn House.” Council’s unexpected decision to include Dawn House in the mix will now increase the city’s shelter capacity to 94 beds, which is far beyond what city officials had recommended. Hurdle also says Dawn House will actually get about $300,000 in tax funding in 2015 - $155,000 in special funding, plus January-to-June funding that was earlier approved - more than in any previous year because of council’s surprise decision. “So they are receiving a higher level of funding for no formal application like other agencies had to go through.” Continued on page 5

KEDCO’s budget increase faces rocky ride at City Hall Coun. Rob Hutchison says KEDCO’s budget presentation offered “scant” details about why it needs extra money, but agrees the organization should be given a chance to prove itself to the new council. Coun. Lisa Osanic agrees patience is the best solution at this time. “I think we should give them every chance to meet their targets.” KEDCO’s board recently unveiled an ambitious strategic plan which, among other things, aims

News - Kingston’s economic development agency nearly became the first and only casualty of the city’s 2015 budget talks. Councillors came within a few votes of denying KEDCO the twopercent spending increase it had requested this year. On the final night of budget deliberations January 22, Coun. Peter Stroud led the call to scale back KEDCO’s spending, but did not want his amendment characterized as an “indictment” of the job creation and tourism promotion organization. Instead, he offered: “KEDCO did not make a convincing case for a budget increase.” Coun. Stroud says the budget presentation, done by KEDCO chief executive Jeff Garrah, left him with too many questions to justify the increase. “It’s not going to kill KEDCO but it sends a message of accountability and they better do a better job.” The city-funded economic office requested an extra $53,000 in its $2.7 million annual budget. The two percent inflationary increase was similar to what other external
agencies, including Kingston Police and public health, sought from council this year. Mayor Bryan Paterson spoke against calls to deny KEDCO’s extra funding, arguing the organization shouldn’t be punished because councillors felt snubbed with a lack of budget details. “I certainly didn’t get the sense they were trying to hide anything.” As a KEDCO board member for four years, Paterson assured councillors he has seen the “guts” of its budget, and noted the organization has to display a “degree of discretion” due to the competitive nature of its role in attracting new businesses to Kingston. The mayor also argued it was unfair to cut KEDCO’s budget increase without knowing the impact it could have on its many programs. “I don’t know what it is we’re saying no to.” Coun. Richard Allen says councillors must show some trust in the external agencies until they can get a better handle on how they operate. “We all want to hold external agencies accountable … the difficulty is this council hasn’t had a chance to set the guidelines with them.” Allen added: “I don’t want to be threatening at this point.”

Shake off the February blahs at KCHC winter carnival By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Events â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Who says you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a carnival in the winter? Certainly not the Kingston Community Health Centre (KCHC); this year they are celebrating their seventh annual Winter Carnival with a mixture of indoor and outdoor events for the whole family. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year most of the activities are inside, but we will have outdoor wagon rides too,â&#x20AC;? explained event organizer Stephanie MacBeth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have different types of drum-
ming seminars happening, crafts, a balloon clown, and of course a BBQ.â&#x20AC;? The event has been a success throughout the years and started after MacBeth and a co-worker were reminiscing about Winter Carnivals they used to frequent as kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were sitting around and I was lamenting about my childhood in Richmond Hill and the winter carnival that we used to have with ice sculptures, sledding, outdoor activities and indoor activities and I wanted that here.â&#x20AC;? KCHC puts on a number of com-
munity gatherings each year including the fall Scarecrow Festival, the Get Active fair in the spring and the annual Summer Celebration. Each event aims to engage community members and attracts anywhere from 400-1,000 people annually. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We partner with multiple groups in the community like the Credit Union and Kingston Literacy, and lots of other organizations for each event,â&#x20AC;? said MacBeth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the carnival we have about 20 community partners coming together and each puts on an activity and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really a way to get people engaged.â&#x20AC;?
The carnival is completely free of charge and MacBeth loves seeing all of the families and community members that come out and enjoy the day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love seeing everyone come together. People are happy and smiling and having a great time and they are interacting in a way that they may not have the opportunity to throughout the cold winter months.â&#x20AC;? The event is being held at the Salvation Army Rideau Heights Community Church on Weller Avenue. While it has also been held at skating rinks and different venues through-

out the years, MacBeth finds that the church offers the best space for the variety of events. She hopes people will come out and enjoy the day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think people should come out to engage with other people from their community. You also get to know people who provide resources in the community and help others. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great afternoon and a great way to get out of the house.â&#x20AC;? The KCHC Winter Carnival will being held on Saturday, Feb. 7 at the Salvation Army Rideau Heights Community Church, 183 Weller Ave from noon to 3 p.m.

Kingston Heritage – Kingston’s hotlydebated quest to hire an Integrity Commissioner to respond to citizen complaints about council conduct may be scrapped by the new council. It was narrowly decided in January 2014 to hire a permanent part-time watchdog, but the position still hasn’t been filled. And, Coun. Jim Neill wants to keep it that way. He introduced a motion February 3 for the city to abandon any further efforts to add an Integrity Commissioner to the municipal payroll at an annual budget of $50,000. “There was a 7-6 vote that I didn’t agree with,” he said of the original motion of the last council. The contentious issue has resurfaced after the chief administrator revealed that attempts to fill the position last fall were unsuccessful. In an information report, CAO Gerard Hunt noted the only two unidentified candidates who applied in a Request for Proposals (RFP) did not meet the city’s criteria. “While those making a submission were each clearly professionally qualified for the position, the nature of the responses indicated that the desired focus for the position of Integrity Commissioner may not have been appreciated,” Hunt informed council. Coun. Neill was quick to jump on the city’s inability to hire a political watchdog as an opportunity to overturn the last council’s decision. “Knocking on doors during the election I heard people saying there was too much spending on lawyers,” he explained. Coun. Neill pointed to the frustrating experience the last time the city brought in an Integrity Commissioner to probe concerns that were raised by the city’s legal department. It concerned former councillor Bill Glover’s conduct during the city’s ward boundary appeal. Commissioner George Rust-D’Eye looked into the complaints but recommended no sanctions against Glover in relation to
his email correspondence with a city-hired expert, who later testified at an Ontario Municipal Board appeal on the boundary dispute. Coun. Neill says the $53,000 legal tab from the probe amounted to an “injustice” for Glover. The independent investigation coincided with council’s decision to hire a permanent part-time Integrity Commissioner to respond to future complaints from councillors or citizens about the conduct of elected officials. Hunt notified council the recent RFP process did not find any suitable candidates, and he wants to restart the hiring process to clarify that the Integrity Commissioner’s focus should be on providing educational and ethical advice through a periodic retainer fee. Mayor Bryan Paterson supports the need to fill the position and to conduct a new RFP process. He defended the hiring as a pro-active legal tool, and not just policing the conduct of elected officials. “The context of an Integrity Commissioner was always about educating council and educating the public. There’s a whole other raft of duties that the Commissioner was supposed to fulfill.” He added: “You know why they haven’t been hired? People who responded were only focused on that investigative component and not on the broader context of what we really wanted an Integrity Commissioner to do.” Other municipalities are hiring Integrity Commissioner’s to provide guidance to councillors and to draft Codes of Conduct as to how they should govern themselves, Paterson added. However, Coun. Neill’s motion urges Kingston to abandon the hiring process. “This enables future councils to decide on an ad hoc basis when they feel they need one.” Unlike the last time the issue was voted on, Neill expects to have enough support among new councillors to quash the Integrity Commissioner’s hiring this time. He added: “I don’t think it’ll be a close vote.”

Question of Integrity: Council renews debate over need for watchdog

$6 MILLION NEEDED FOR SECOND MRI AT KGH
O
ur region is fortunate to have the best stroke care possible, but our care providers need access to the best tools to provide that care. It is very import to have access to diagnostic information, in a timely fashion. Earlier diagnoses, better treatments and improved outcomes will result from the installation of a second tertiary care MRI. As KGH’s role in providing the highest level of specialty care (such as cancer care and stroke care) has grown, access to critical equipment such as MRI, has not. The province will provide ongoing operational funding for a second machine, but the community needs to raise the $6 million needed for the purchase and installation of the equipment. The need is clear. At any given time, there are 850 people waiting for an MRI at KGH. It is where the most complex scans are completed in the region. Anyone who is well enough and can be served at a communitybased clinic is referred there. Scans that must be
done at KGH are those that require special skill sets, equipment and services such as general anesthetic for children. Those waiting for MRI scans are prioritized by need. But because of the growing demand in our region, far too often, appointments are cancelled because a more urgent patient needs to be scanned. Imagine having a child who requires MRI scans every three months to monitor brain cancer and learning that the earliest they can get in is HYHU\ ÀYH PRQWKV More specialized care and better treatments are also resulting in more demand for diagnostic services such as MRI. This is particularly true with the delivery of cancer
care. Best practices for treatment (known as clinical standards of care) call for MRI in more instances for screening, diagnosis, disease staging, treatment planning and post-treatment assessment. “This is about providing people with access to the imaging care they need, when they need it,” says Karen Pearson, Director of Imaging Services for KGH and Hotel Dieu Hospital. “Not only will it help us meet wait time expectations, but most importantly, it will provide patients and their care teams with access to the information they need to get on with their treatment.”
Every person waiting for an MRI at KGH is prioritized by need relative to others waiting for a scan. The problem is, there are too many people who urgently require an MRI. A second machine will help address wait times. Photo courtesy of Matthew Manor, KGH.
Dawn House women’s shelter to get special funding from city Continued from page 1
The issue of one agency getting preferential treatment sparked fears the city could be flooded with extra funding requests from other agencies. “In my view it’s not fair to all the other shelters who went through the process,” argued Mayor Bryan Paterson. “I find this extremely odd,” agreed Coun. Kevin George. However, Coun. McLaren insisted Dawn House is a special case. “Temper
your rationality with a little bit of mercy.” Hurdle, who expects the added funding for Dawn House will come from municipal reserve funds, quickly met with other agencies to explain council’s decision. “We wanted to make sure they knew this was not a staff recommendation.” She also expressed long-term doubts over whether Dawn House will fit within the mandate of Kingston’s 10 year housing and homelessness plan unless it can revamp its operations.

Kingston Heritage - Thursday, February 5, 2015 5
Purchase deadline looms for Marine Museum: City offers different support News - If the city won’t buy a chunk of heritage waterfront land, then maybe it can be turned into a national park. Council got behind a proposal by Coun. Peter Stroud, who wants Parks Canada to look at turning the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes and surrounding waterfront land into an ‘Urban National Park.’ “This is an angle that hasn’t been explored yet,” he said. The debate over how to help the floundering museum surfaced again at council Jan. 27, just days before Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) intends to put the 1.5 hectare property - which includes the 1890s dry dock and deep water wharf - on the open market for sale as part of its divestiture policy. Coun. Stroud pointed to Ottawa’s creation of an urban park at the old Downsview military base in Toronto as an example of what it could do for
Kingston. “Lucky for us there’s more than one federal department in Ottawa,” he observed. Coun. Jim Neill urged PWGCS to “act more responsibly” in preserving the 40 year old museum at its current location. “There’s nothing wrong with requesting a Hail Mary pass,” said Chris West, chair of the museum’s board of trustees. West, who was critical of council’s earlier decision not to purchase the heritage land, sounded more optimistic over the city’s latest efforts to find a made-in-Kingston solution. “It’s a step in the right direction. Council has actually moved a fair distance,” he told reporters. In addition to the park land proposal, council approved a raft of other measures designed to stall the land sale, give the museum more time to vacate the site, or give future owners municipal incentives to let the museum stay. Most of the measures, however, hinge on Ottawa’s willingness to go
along with them. “We are doing everything we can do as a city,” said Mayor Bryan Paterson. “Everything we’re asking for is reasonable.” However, the mayor and council remain adamant that the City of Kingston not get involved in purchasing the property itself based on the potential environmental and structural liability to taxpayers, which is estimated at $19 million. The city’s purchase deadline was Jan. 31, before the site can be sold to the highest bidder, according to Public Works. “The city is signalling that we’re willing to go some of the way, but not all of the way,” Paterson explained. Among the options a unanimous council is requesting of the federal owners to support the museum: -postpone the pending land sale beyond the Jan. 31 deadline, -give the museum longer notice to vacate the site should it be sold, -provide costs to relocate the Alexander Henry retired coast guard ice-

breaker, -include conditions in the sale for the new owners to remediate the property and assist the museum to continue its operations, -create an emergency fund of $50,000 to assist the museum is relocating to a new site. The city also endorsed a series of possible incentives designed to encourage a future owner to keep the museum from moving such as Brownfield clean-up grants, tax deferrals and rebates. Councillors tried to clear up some of the public confusion over why they’ve refused their first right to purchase the federal property. Coun. Neill says there is confidential information prepared by PWGSC about the site’s condition that the city has seen, but is forbidden to disclose publicly. “That was made available with a gag order.” Coun. Rob Hutchison also voiced frustration over the government’s apparent unwillingness to offer the city any fix up money or environmental li-

ability protection should it want to buy the site. “The federal government is simply not playing ball.” Despite the ongoing friction between the city and federal governments, the privately managed but tax subsidized marine museum says it is “encouraged” by the city’s latest efforts. West makes no apologies, though, for his earlier criticism of council’s refusal to buy the land outright. In a presentation to council, he described the past few weeks as “feverish” and he used the mayor’s own inauguration speech as reasons why the city needs to safeguard the downtown attraction. “Do we want to be a smart city? Do we want to be a sustainable city? Do we want to be a 21st century city?” West says the museum still faces an uncertain future and “any number of scenarios” will remain in play depending on what the federal government wants to do. The museum has leased the waterfront heritage building since 1975. R0013099899

Job seekers take note: opportunity abounds down on the farm News - It’s been a pretty dismal couple of weeks for the job scene here in the Kingston area with businesses like Target and Future Shop closing, but for those wanting to work on a farm things are only looking up. “A lot of us are finding with the increased interest in local food there are more and more opportunities out there,” says farmer Emily Dowling, who owns Root Radical farm on Howe Island. “As our farms grow we’re all hiring more and more incrementally over the years, and also more farms are starting up.” Along with Megan Joslin, coowner of Patchwork Gardens in Battersea, Dowling is organizing a special local farms job fair in hopes of matching up farmers and workers; it will take place Tuesday, Feb. 10 from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. in the Wilson Room of the Kingston Frontenac Public Library (130 Johnson St.). “The opportunities on farms are out there and we’re finding there is not a large enough pool of people that know about them,” Dowling explains. So what does it take to work on a farm? “We’re looking for people who are physically able to carry things and are fine working outside in all weather,” says Joslin, noting that “it can be really, really hot and really cold and rainy. Also, people who are happy to work in a group, and if they have any sort of farm or manual labour experience that’s definitely a bonus but not necessary.” Having passion for the work is also key. “I like to work with people who have a passion for local food and ecological issues because it makes it more fun,” Dowling says. “I feel like they’re more engaged and happier working on a farm when it gets tough.” While most of the jobs offered are seasonal, usually running from
around May until the end of the fall, experience on a farm can lead to a wide variety of career paths. Last year, for instance, Patchwork Gardens hired a young woman who had just graduated from university with a degree in sustainable development. “She wants to get into food advocacy, but wanted to have real experience first working on a farm,” Joslin explains. “It worked perfectly for us. She worked with us for a full season and now she’s gone on to look for other work and she has that background.” Others are interested in eventually starting their own farms, and some are in it simply for the love of good food. “I think people who really love food get a lot out of working on farms because there’s kind of that natural reward,” Dowling says.” There’s something really amazing about planting a seed and nurturing these plants along all through the process and then getting to enjoy a big salad.” She adds that there’s also a lot of intrinsic satisfaction in caring for vegetables. “It’s so nice to finish weeding a bed or something and then you look back on it and see that what was before a total disorganized mess… is now organized and tidy and you know that those plants are going to produce great food for people.” The job fair will also include a panel discussion, at which former and current farm workers will share their experiences and offer advice; this will take place at 7 p.m. So far, seven farms have signed up to take part in the job fair, and there are dozens of full- and parttime positions, as well as internships, work shares and volunteer roles to be filled. There will also be some positions available for college and university students looking for summer work, running from May until the end of August. Currently, most farms involved are vegetable farms, but the event is open to all types. Farmers interested in taking part can contact Megan at meganjoslin@gmail.com.

EDITORIAL
In Our Opinion
Haters gonna hate (hate, hate, hate, hate)
Editorial - One of the best parts of my job is receiving response from readers. Usually, this comes in the form of positive notes about my columns, which are typically stories from my personal life, or negative reaction to our paperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s editorials, which Mandy and I collaborate on; editorials are often more political in nature and as such sometimes spark controversy. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also had people write in to disagree with me on the few occasions when my personal columns have taken a more political tone. Since moving from the role of reporter to editor about a year and a half ago, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also been the recipient of some more generalized complaints (and occasionally praise) regarding how the paper reports on specific ongoing issues or people. Then there are the regrettable times we misspell someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name or get a fact wrong. I find people who bring these errors to our attention are typically a lot more polite about it than those who write in
disagreeing about some political or philosophical opinion weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve put forth; this is something that has always perplexed me, as you would think a person who has been genuinely wronged by the paper would harbour more resentment than one who simply disagrees with us on a particular topic. Whatever the reason, I welcome all of these emails, tweets, messages and phone calls - the good and the bad - for what is the point of writing something and publishing it for all to see if people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t to react to it? I also enjoy being challenged in my beliefs. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t consider myself to be a particularly partisan or political person, and I try to keep an open mind when it comes to different opinions and perspectives. Of course, I prefer to be challenged sans angry, condescending tone, but most of the time thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not how it works. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been thinking a lot about reader reaction lately because I seem to have been getting more than usual over the last couple of months. A lot of people either really loved or really hated my editorial about Sir John A. Macdonald, and many in the community care deeply about the Marine Museum and have been responding to Bill Hutchinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (in my opinion excellent) reporting on that topic. One recent email contained some nasty
comments about my columns and writing style; admittedly, this hit a little hard. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a lot of this type of thing, probably because most people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enjoy these columns simply choose not to read them. I guess there are people out there who dislike my work so much they derive pleasure from hate-reading my columns and sending emails letting me know how much my family and I suck. I admit I put myself out there by writing so much about my personal life. I talk about my daughter and my husband and my feelings and in case anyone is wondering, yes, I have thought long and hard about whether or not this is a good idea, weighing the risks and the benefits. I have friends who refuse to even post photos of their children on Facebook and am well aware that people probably judge me for what I write and think I had it coming. I guess what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to say is that I feel privileged my job allows me to have this platform, even if some days I do feel like a little like Taylor Swift (without all the money and fame and musical talent). So keep your emails and messages coming, even the not-so-nice ones. I am honoured to have you all as readers.

their excited children to this museum to embed a better understanding of how Canada grew and Kingston developed to grow into the smart city that it is to purported to become, it is incredible that the City Council has been directed to â&#x20AC;&#x153;let it goâ&#x20AC;?, in essence . It is curious that this position is being taken at a time when education is being touted as an international trade commodity by John Manley (CEO, Canadian Council of Chief Executives) who gave a paper at the Canadian Club of Toronto in 2014 about the importance of primary and secondary education in relation to post secondary institutions. His thoughts on the subject were based on the work of Bernard Simon (Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s International Education Strategy) opined by R. Michael Warren in an article published by the Whig on January 19 (World-class education, low-class marketing).

From a certain point of view, the Marine Museum is sequential in the telling of the story of Ontario and the development of population and industries along the St. Lawrence/Great Lakes Waterway and beyond. The Canoe Museum at Peterborough begins the story, the Marine Museum at Kingston continues it. As such, one wonders why it has not been designated a Heritage site. Going beyond the aspect of being accessible to those in education and to the public, if the Marine Museum is â&#x20AC;&#x153;let goâ&#x20AC;?, what will the impact of the loss have on the tourist industry: the surfers, sailors and boaters who wander in to learn a little more about their waterways and the vessels that preceded the ones they now DISTRIBUTION INQUIRIES Jacquie use?

8 Kingston Heritage - Thursday, February 5, 2015
The American-Canadian retail dilemma Editorial â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In case you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know, Target is leaving Canada. The big box retailer announced that it is closing all Canadian stores after less than two years in the country. While the announcement wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t surprising to most people, it does leave many wondering why so many American companies canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to make the transition to Canada effectively. With Target it may have been a case of too big, too soon and over expansion, or maybe it was the disappointment many of us felt when we compared the Canadian stores to those just south of the border. This comparison is where many American retailers seem to fall down and this certainly isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a new trend. Last year, the same scenario happened with clothing retailer J. Crew. The company opened their first location in Canada and many fans of the store were disappointed when they saw a drastic increase in prices and a lack of comparable merchandise. The same woes fell upon other companies like Aeropostale and Big Lots, which have both had unsuccessful transitions to Canada in recent years, with Big Lots taking the Target route and leaving completely and Aeropostale cutting back from 77 Canadian stores to just 10. Target faced a similar demise; their merchandise was never fully stocked, their American brands didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t travel across the border and their prices didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reflect the deals that were promised. Their company tagline reads â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Expect More. Pay Lessâ&#x20AC;?, but that simply was never reflected in Canada. So the question remains, can an American retailer successfully transition to Canada? Companies like Nordstrom and Saks Fifth Avenue are wondering the same thing and both major retailers will find out in the coming years. While many of us may enjoy these retailers in the US, perhaps that is where they should stay. Canadians seem to be creatures of habit and for many of us that means shopping at Wal-Mart, Canadian Tire, The Bay and Costco. It takes a lot to change our behaviours and while some of the American alternatives may be better, it takes a while for us to catch on. Also, with an increase in availability online is there really a need to have your favorite American brand around the corner? With the click of a few buttons many of those brands will come to your door and in the future that may just be how we shop in general. For now, though, best of luck to our future new-comers; hopefully they learn from othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mistakes.

Letter to the editor... Re: City taking another kick at the can to reduce garbage output can proudly say that we now only generate one garbage bag, two recycling bins and one full green bin every week. I still wonder to this day how the City could reduce a service that we clearly pay for and yet never compensate us with a decrease in our property taxes. In fact our taxes have since risen and they are on the rise yet again. Now the City is pondering the ideas of possibly having all households purchase bag tags, reducing the frequency of pick-ups or to have households put all waste in clear bags. The last idea, being blunt is an invasion of privacy and not to mention simply disgusting. No one wants to see the waste generated from each other’s personal hygiene. All of this, again,
I am assuming with no decrease in our property taxes. These ideas are clearly not the answer. If anything this will most definitely lead to more problems with individuals disposing of their waste illegally in private dumpsters, or in rural and wooded areas within the City limits. If the 65% diversion rate is in fact an achievable goal and the City truly wants to attain it, then it is clear what needs to be done. In order to help further persuade the household to recycle, the City should reward the household. The City should be offering a tax break to every household should the desired rate be attained. They should also pay attention to
their own recycling procedures, and the recycling procedures practiced by private industries in the city. For example, many privately-owned restaurants do not recycle. Plastic bottles, aluminum cans, and food scraps are thrown into the trash. And the last time I visited the Invista Centre and Artillery Park, I noticed a lot of recyclables in the garbage cans.

Upon reading the article in the January 22nd edition of the Heritage, “City taking another kick at the can to reduce garbage output” by Mr. Bill Hutchins, I felt, as a tax paying citizen that something must be said. I am tired of reading articles stating how the City feels that Kingstonians are not doing their part in achieving the desired diversion rate that the City is trying to achieve. In order for anyone to achieve a certain goal, the goal must be measurable and attainable. I don’t know where this 65% diversion rate comes from but one must wonder if it can even be achieved. Recycling is not only
the responsibility of the tax paying household, but it is also the responsibility of City of Kingston owned and operated facilities and the private business sector. However, it appears that the City only holds the tax paying household accountable for all recycling, and we, the homeowners, are the ones suffering for it. A few years ago we were subjected to a new by-law which restricted us all to only one garbage bag per household. Initially my wife and I were upset. Our household consists of two adults, a toddler and an infant child. I’m certain that I don’t have to tell you how many “poopie” diapers an infant can generate. Despite this, we made adjustments and R0013119122_0205

In partnership with
Local federal NDP candidate ready for round two hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
News - Looks like Liberal candidate Mark Gerretsen will officially be going up against another familiar name in the upcoming federal election: Daniel Beals of the NDP. In 2011, Beals ran for the MP seat for Kingston and the Islands for the first time, capturing nearly 22 per cent of the vote – a record high in the riding for a federal NDP candidate. On Jan. 30, he was once again named candidate at the party’s local nomination meeting, having run for the position uncontested. “I like to think it’s 90 per cent because I have a lot of support and I believe that I do have that kind of support,” he says. “Also, I think people realize that it’s a real challenge that involves a lot of work if you do it the right way.” For Beals, the decision to run again was an easy one. “Being a candidate changed my life. I felt like belonging to the community made me a better person, and I want to do even better as a representative this time…I may not have won the election [the first time], but so many people put their trust in me and I want to deliver it back even better.” Beals says he’s deeply troubled by the fact that Canada has been moving in the wrong direction for the last 10 years under the Conservative government. “There’s not a person in this city that I’ve talked to who agrees with where it’s going…A lot of what I’m going to be talking about is if we’re ready to go in a different direction and this is like a watershed moment, what kind of policies do we want to put forward to change
how the country looks right now.” Federal NDP leader Thomas Mulcair has already laid out a number of policies he would like to implement, such as $15 a day childcare for all pre-school children and moving the age at which seniors receive old age security back to 65 from 67. Beals agrees with all of these policies, but adds that there are also several local issues he’d like to focus on. “I think the issue of services for veterans affects a lot of people in this community. Their services have been ripped apart for the last 10 years since this government has come in. That would be something I would actively push to restore.” He says housing is another problem locally: “Housing in Kingston is ridiculous. It’s still just about the lowest vacancy rate in Canada. It’s really difficult to get housing and nothing has happened with it.” He also suspects the prison farm issue may come up again. “It won’t be as big of an issue this time…but it’s not over until the community says it’s over. That land is still there. I don’t want to see it turned into condos There’s if people want it for something else.” Beals says he’s not discouraged by the fact that Kingston has typically been considered a strong Liberal riding for the last 25 years. “Thirty years ago Kingston was seen as a perpetually Conservative riding, so it’s actually moving in our direction. In the To Be last two provincial elections, the Conservatives finished third, so I think pretty Made init’sthe obvious that it’s between the NDP and the Liberals right now inClassifieds Kingston.” He believes this shift will help him overcome what has in the past been a 613-546-8885

a choice based on fear, they can make a choice based on [their values and beliefs].” Beals encourages everyone who wants to see change in the upcoming election to become engaged and get involved. “I want to be part of [the change]. I

All you need is love, or not Lifestyle – February 14 is fast approaching, and it brings out both the romantic and the cynic in me. The romantic says what’s not to appreciate about love? The cynic understands that it’s just another way for the corporate world to make a buck by tapping our tender feelings. Kaching. Love is about tenderness, kind words, appreciation, support, making an effort and going out of our way to do something special for someone, and wanting what’s best for the other person, even if it means doing without for yourself. None of these things, per se, has anything to do with making a purchase. How about cooking a special meal for your partner or your best friend, or maybe for someone you know who is going through a rough time? Where did all the cupid and hearts
thing start? It’s origins are lost in time. Some credit the third century Romans. Others point to Italian festivals of the Middle Ages. Yet others claim it dates to the Norse St. Galantin (pronounced Valantin), a lover of women. The Catholic Church for years celebrated the Feast Day of St. Valentine on February 14, but this tradition has been dropped. It wasn’t clear who was being honored. The options included at least three people, each with differing histories. The confusion over which person (and his origin) was being celebrated led the Catholic Church to drop St. Valentine’s Day from the calendar of feasts in 1969. The first reference that can be found to a connection between Valentine’s Day and romance is credited to Geoffrey Chaucer’s Parlement of Foules (1382). By the 15th century, lovers were exchanging poems and handmade cards, often sealed with red wax. During the late 19th century, commercial cards had become popular. The color red became associated with love because it’s associated with warmth, emotion and passion.
It’s the color of the heart, which, in the early days of medicine, was considered the source and centre of love and affection. We still associate love with the heart as we use terms like “sweetheart” and phrases like, “I love you with all my heart.” It would hardly be romantic to say, “I love you with all my lungs/brain/ eyes/whatever.” For millennia, the rose has been considered the flower of romance. There is certainly no another flower that combines its beauty with such a lovely scent. Remember, though, love should not be easily won. The thorns make it difficult. The rose is the first choice for lovers. A single rose hand-delivered to someone’s doorstep or mailbox is a nice touch. If you’re going to blow some serious coin, how about a romantic dinner? This city has a great proportion of fine restaurants to population. Days on Front instantly springs to the forefront as one of my first choices. But there truly are so many to choose from: Chez Piggy, Curry Original, Le Chien Noir, Olivea....the list goes on. If you don’t like crowds, celebrate before or after February 14.
Add in a evening of theatre and the night is made for romance, especially if it’s theatre of the professional quality and quirky approach of Theatre Kingston’s current production: Elizabeth and Darcy, playing at The Frontenac Club Inn until. Tickets are available through the Grand Theatre box office.

and You’ve Got Mail (1998). I’ve written about him in the past, and I’ll repeat my view here. Many people don’t like Adam Sandler because of the many, admittedly, silly roles he has played. But Adam Sandler is a brilliant actor. You only have to watch a movie like Reign Over Me (2007) to see that. This film is a deeply painful love story. Sandler plays a former dentist whose emotional life was devastated when his wife and daughters
Continued from page 13
Suppose you don’t want to go out on the town for that elegant dinner. How about a movie at home? There are lots of wonderful romantic flicks. Some lovely dark ones include Chocolat (2000), Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994), Casablanca (1942), Annie Hall (1977), About Time (2013) with Bill Nighy at his finest, and I’d even add Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993) to this list. I did say dark. I even have great fondness for what are usually included in every chick-flick list of fluff: Kate and Leopold (2001)
were killed on 9/11. You know what emotional pain is after watching that movie. You also see hope, for despite the ultimate in loss, the protagonist is able to start over—deeply scarred and scared—but life does begin anew for Sandler’s character by the end of the movie. Although I classify this as a romance, you won’t likely find it in anyone’s list of romantic favor-
ites. It’s about real love, real pain, real healing, not some fairy tale image. It’s one of my all-time favorite movies. Similarly, another movie with a 9/11 loss as the underlying source of pain is Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. Thomas Horn plays a young boy whose father (Tom Hanks) dies in the Twin Towers on

9/11. The boy’s grief takes him on a quest around New York City, looking for the lock that matches a key he finds in his father’s belongings. In addition to Horn and Hanks, the stellar cast includes Sandra Bullock, John Goodman and Max von Sydow. The many moments of love in this movie put it into the romance realm as far as I’m concerned. But for both Reign Over Me and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close have tissues ready; your eyes won’t be dry by the end of either of these flicks, which makes them perfect for cuddling with someone. I have just as much appreciation for anti-Valentine’s Day, which, as far as I can determine, is for those who don’t buy into corporate greed feeding on neurotic love. Still, isn’t hugging or cuddling with someone (or thing, e.g., your dog) so much more pleasant than being anti anything? So, on February 14 will I be cuddled up with someone (or my dog) watching Titanic or Gone With the Wind? Cuddling, with or without dog: highly probable. Watching one of those movies: I think not? I do have my limits.

A fun evening of masquerading for the United Way By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
“We have a lot of people who put a lot of effort into finding a unique mask and many people are even buying them months in advance too,” said Nolan. “We are also seeing a lot of people making masks themselves, which is pretty cool. It gives people an outlet to express their individuality and some of the masks are so elaborate and beautiful. It really adds to the event.” Above all the event is a fundraiser for the United Way and Nolan thinks that is what attracts so many of the participants year after year. “We are seeing so many individuals participate who really do want to R0013118649
News – Costume parties aren’t just for kids; adults can dress up, wear masks and have a good time too. That’s exactly what the Next Gen Masquerade is all about. The United Way fundraiser is now in its third year and the excitement for the event seems to grow with each year. “The response has been really positive,” said Erin Nolan, co-chair for the annual event and Next Gen-er. “The fact that we live in Canada and February is not so great in terms of weather and everyone hibernates. I think really works for this event in terms of timing. People are looking for something fun to do that gets them out of the house.” The event is put on by Next Gen, a group of volunteers in their twenties and thirties that want to bring meaningful change to the community through involvement in the United Way. Planned events are geared towards young professionals ages 25 to 40 and the annual Masquerade was planned with that de-
mographic in mind. “The event really gives people an excuse to dress up and spend some time looking nice with their friends and significant others,” said Nolan. “Usually those types of events are weddings or corporate parties and this is something totally different. I think people really enjoy that aspect of it.” The masquerade is an elaborate cocktail party that includes appetizers, a cash bar, a DJ, dressy attire and of course masks. Nolan was worried that the masquerade aspect would be too much at first, but participants loved it right from the start. “The first year we held the event we were really worried that people wouldn’t dress up and they would think it was dumb, but people were amazing and so enthusiastic. Everyone played along and had a great time and we were so happy to see that.” The masquerade has even helped generate mask sales throughout the city and inspired some participants to get creative.

Activism through art Lifestyle – “Art,” says Barb Danielewski, “gives us a window into the internal world and allows us to express what may be more essential to the human experience than work and the day-to-day realities of feeding ourselves.”It’s been said that people who repeatedly claim to be bored are probably boring people. Barb
Danielewski got bored in high school but did something to deal with it. “I was really bored in class, and I created an improv poetry zine (zeen) with friends,” she says. “We each contributed two random words to a piece of paper and challenged a person to write a poem using the random words.”
From there, they used the poems and collage art to create their first zine. These are typically inexpensively produced, underground publications with small circulations, often created on photocopiers. Zines are part of the DIY (doit-yourself) philosophy that circumvents the politically manipulated and corporatecontrolled media. “I’m not sure where I first heard about zine culture,” she says. “It’s such an interesting way of expressing a voice that we don’t often see in the mainstream media.” The creative impulse that first manifested itself in zine culture eventually brought Barb Danielewski to one of the artist studios at the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning. In this new arts hub setting, she works on artistic expression in many forms, from creating stickers to silkscreen. After exploring indie culture in high school, she felt the need to move further from normative culture. “Indie was still not quite rebellious enough for me,” she says. “I had to break out into the zine world. After three issues, we were getting more and more creative with our offerings. I was at Frontenac High School and there wasn’t much of an artis-

tic culture there, so I went to KCVI, where there were a lot more freaks. We would make our own clothes and people would show up in the most bizarre outfits.” She found herself interviewing and profiling bands. By engaging artists culturally, Barb realized she was accessing worlds, like back stage, where people don’t normally go. “I sewed a lot of my own clothing as well. We couldn’t find what we were looking for at the mall.” Then she discovered activism as a way of engaging with the world. “After that, my art became very political. I made stickers, which were something that could be accessible. I had a lot of pen pals at the time and we’d send correspondence art to each other. The correspondence art was a way for me to connect with a creative community that didn’t seem to exist in Kingston at that time. I hadn’t been exposed to diverse interests.” She started backpacking right after high school and spent four years from 1996 to 2000 on the road.

Activism through art Continued from page 17
“That was my university,” she says. “I also play flute, so I busked along the way.” During her travels, she learned silkscreen techniques and found that t-shirts were an ideal way to make messages visible. “It was really inspiring to me,” she says. “I could create a message about poverty or indigenous people’s rights and it didn’t have to be professionally made in the corporate world.” She came back home to Kingston for a visit and discovered that things had changed. “I discovered that all these things were happening here,” she says. “I got offered space in a really cool apartment that had been passed from friend to friend for 20 years.” In every corner of the apartment there was art left behind from previous inhabitants. “There were vinyl records stapled in cool patterns, posters, art filling the space. It really felt like a part of the history of Kingston in there. It felt like I was part of something important to Kingston.” She started to work as a bike mechanic at Yellow Bike Action, a community bike shop. But she still had the restless travel bug nagging at her, so she headed to Europe a
couple of times, stayed in a lot of squats and immersed herself in DIY artistic culture. “I decided that when I came back [to Kingston] I would shift gears. I changed from bike mechanic to screen printing. I started screen printing to promote bike culture in Kingston.” She created patches from scraps of fabric. “It’s a big part of youth culture,” she says. “You sew them on to show where you’ve been and who you are. You can’t just buy them in a store. They’re a secret portal to these other worlds. So I started screen printing patches and sharing them with all my friends in Kingston.” She moved from patches to printing on t-shirts she found in second hand thrift stores. “It’s really important to me to print on second hand material rather than contribute to the sweat shop culture.” But she felt that t-shirt work became confining. “Every single one looked the same,” she says. “So I started printing on different materials, shirts, sweaters, jackets. I wanted to see how far I could push the limits of screen printing.” Then came an item of clothing that was about as incongruous with creative culture as can be imagined: the necktie. “I’d found something that was not only interesting to print on, but screen
printing on neckties subverts the very purpose of the necktie, to conform.” Yale Law School professor (in sev-
Barb Danielewski, left, a resident artist at the Tett Centre of Creativity and Learning, with a participant at last year’s City of Kingston CulPhoto by Rob Mooy ture Days. eral stints/time frames) and social critic Charles Reich has noted that the necktie
is symbolic of the human male cutting off mind from body in an attempt to deny the emotional aspect of the self, in essence, strangling feelings. Barb has taken screen printing into schools as an artist in residence. “I like to teach kids how to tie a necktie, starting out with a standard knot,” she says. “I actively encourage them to make mistakes and to try tying them in a creative way. We come out with ties used as belts, headbands, ties and scarves. Some are tied with three different knots. The kids get totally outside the box and become really creative.” Barb had lived in her apartment downtown for 12 years. She felt connected to a vibrant artistic community. But the building was recently purchased by a developer (probably wearing a necktie) who is turning the space into high end lofts. “I had to move out,” says Barb. “I found myself really missing that connection to the arts community in my home studio. I feel like it’s really become a big part of my identity to inspire people and show them that everyone can be creative and anyone can screen print and bring creativity into their lives. I feel like the Tett Centre has the power to do that. “Here, the City is saying, ‘We believe in the arts enough that we’re going to explore.’ All the artists here say, ‘We believe in the community and want to engage with people.’ It’s part of the
mandate of what we’re supposed to do. We’ve been asked to engage with the community. That really is life blood for me. It feeds me.” She sees opportunities throughout the Tett that haven’t existed elsewhere, such as big workshop spaces and wheelchair accessibility throughout the building. “It’s inspiring being in this beautiful building with exposed limestone walls and a stunning view of the lake,” she says. “I can’t believe how lucky I am to work in this atmosphere.” She believes we all have stories to tell and a desire to be heard. “Here at the Tett we see a whole spectrum of ways we can tell our stories with sound, photography and other visual arts, writing and dance. We can witness our stories and engage audiences in ways that aren’t traditional. A lot of the ways we are exploring through artistic collaboration is really cutting edge in the arts community. It feels like what’s being curated into this space are a lot of community connections and a willingness to hear each other’s stories in ways we’ve never heard them before.” You can find Barb Danielewski in Studio 214D at the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning.

Poverty and a food price crisis By Aric McBay Columnist
Now that we’ve rung in 2015, we can expect a higher total when our groceries are rung up at the store. According to the Food Institute at the University of Guelph, food prices in 2014 increased by 2.8%. Meat prices increased the most, with a jump of 12.4%. The Food Institute predicts that in 2015 food prices will continue to rise faster than inflation. Low-income people are most by affected these increases. That’s a very large group including people on employment insurance, Ontario Works, or disability support, as well as underemployed and minimum wage workers, and students and retired people living on fixed incomes. To learn more I sat down with Tara Kainer, who works on food security issues in the social justice office of the Sisters of Providence of St. Vincent de Paul. She explained that food prices are not the biggest factor in food insecurity: “As long as housing
costs are so astronomically high, people just don’t have any room in their budget. You have to pay your rent or you’re out on the street. You have to pay your mortgage or you’re going to lose your house. Those things are not very negotiable.” Whereas people can and do try to save money by spending less on food, which usually means buying less healthy and lower quality food, or simply buying less and skipping meals. And a lot of people are in that boat; a 2012 multi-university study on food insecurity found that 4 million Canadians including 1.15 million children “lived in households that struggled to afford the food they needed in 2012.” I asked Kainer if she expected to see changes in demand for food banks and meal programs because of rising food prices, and she told me that an increase in numbers was already apparent at food providers in Kingston. Senior citizens—who often have fixed incomes—have already increased their use. But students
are the fastest growing group of users, along with children. A 2014 report from the Ontario Association of Food Banks (OAFB) found the number of households using food banks had jumped by 20% since 2013. That’s a sign of a widening food insecurity crisis. Some pundits argue—regardless of perpetually increasing costs for housing and food—that low income people simply need to budget better. Kainer dismisses this idea. “They do not need to learn how to budget. They budget better than any of us do because they have so little money. They make their dollars stretch.” Ultimately one of the biggest impacts of food insecurity is poor health. People who can’t afford healthy food and a diverse diet are prone to chronic health problems. To cut back on social assistance, Kainer explains, “is not helping anyone. To have poor, vulnerable, ill-fed people in our society, who will end up with all kinds of difficulties, especially health ones, makes us all weaker as a society and all worse off.”
A report from the Ontario Association of Food Banks found that in 2007 Canada spent $7.6 billion additional health care dollars because of poverty, and the price of food has increased dramatically since then. So society does end up paying for food insecurity, but it does so especially through the health care system. People develop chronic illnesses which are expensive to treat, instead of having preventative access to healthy food. It’s a tragic irony; in a supposed attempt to save money, Canadian society spends far more money on health care and other services, while causing needless deprivation and suffering for millions of people. And that deprivation, the research is clear, falls disproportionately on people of colour and indigenous people, single-parent families, and children. As for solutions, Kainer points to that 2012 multi-university study which suggests an increase in the minimum wage, good jobs, higher rates of social assistance, affordable housing, a national
Outstanding Delivery
day care plan, and a basic income guarantee. Kainer is optimistic about the growing movement for a guaranteed minimum income. “As usual, politicians have to be pushed to implement these kinds of programs. And poverty is the result of social policy.” Aric McBay is a farmer and author. He lives and works at a mixed family farm with a dairy herd and a vegetable operation.

2014 - The year that was
Got Events?
D A E R P S HE

Lifestyle - The beginning of a new year, for most of us, is a time to reflect on the year that has just past. As a writer, I look back at many columns I should have done differently, and there are one or two which would have been better had they never seen the light of day. However, there is little that can be done about either case at this late date. What I can do, with the gracious consent of my long suffering editor, is tell my readers a few of the things that continue to make my work both challenging and gratifying, and certainly interesting. Perhaps in doing so, I can enlighten those who have asked questions, given me advice, and shared with me, their own stories over the year. There were columns, some more than others, which elicited questions from readers on those people I write about. Are they real? Did they ever exist? Where are they now? Sometimes, to protect the innocent, I create a fictitious name, but the people I write about, did indeed exist in my early life, and the episode, did in fact happen. For instance, bad Marguerite (and I’m not stupid enough to call her by her right name) is really a compilation of all the bad little girls I went to school with over the years, and the episodes happened at various times and in various places, but were in fact, actual. Was there really a Velma, Joyce, Cecil, and a Miss Crosby? What about my rich Uncle Lou? Or my three brothers and my beloved sister Audrey? Was

there an Aunt Lizzie who regularly augmented our meager wardrobes with a hand-me-down box from Regina? And what about my mischievous cousin Ronny? Where are these people now? Every one of the aforementioned were very much a part of my growing up on the farm at Northcote, and very, very real indeed. But sadly, all have passed on, the most recent being my dear friend Joyce just a few months ago. Let me highlight just one other. Uncle Lou, my mother’s brother, was indeed her rich brother from New York City. Long before he married and had children of his own, he gave us much joy and bestowed on my mother countless good deeds to make her life easier on that farm in Renfrew County. If you still wonder if he did exist, you can ask his daughter Mary Lou Walker, who lives outside of Perth, and she will attest to the honesty of the stories, and my depiction of an uncle, her father, who brought so much joy to our lives during those Depression years. I am forever grateful to those readers who can add another dimension to a story I have written. One reader recently referred to the story of my Mother’s belief that only someone of fair hair should be the first person over the thresh hold in the new year. He said, his memory was that of only a person with black hair who could be admitted first. That brought about memories for both of us of a piece of coal which was brought into the house by the first visitor, to ensure good luck for the coming year. And so it goes...memories written, and memories shared. And then there are those loyal readers whose mission in life is to keep me on my toes. One such reader sends me letters, which are a joy to read, even though they might be a reprimand for a breach of good grammar, or a word misspelled. He is always
a gentleman and a true scholar, and I want him to know every letter he writes I take very seriously, and try, but don’t always succeed in living up to his very high standards. It is very gratifying to me to know that the column is often recycled and sent off to far away places, which in turn brings me mail from places I have never heard of, and introduces me to people who become friends. Two come to mind: A gentleman from Kitchener writes long, wonderful letters, describing in detail, his life, his home, his activities and his mission in life. His letter is wrapped around packets of imported teas as a token of appreciation for the joy he says the column brings him. One of the most cherished readers the column has elicited, is a young man, still in his early teens, who had his father drive him all the way from his home in the Upper Ottawa Valley to meet me. What an honour that was for me! It is heartwarming indeed to know that my simple stories appeal to people of all ages, and this young man proves to me that memories told, hold no boundaries and appeal to people of all ages. Just a few days ago I was sent a picture of a very young girl, curled up on a couch, reading a Mary Cook story! And so I go into another year with gratitude and with hope. I am truly grateful to this paper for giving me the privilege of telling my stories. I am indebted to those loyal readers who take the time to send their feedback. I appreciate that the families left, of those who have passed on, have given me permission to continue to include their loved ones in my stories. Every letter, every e-mail is cherished, and all are answered. Although I often have to rely on e-mail if an address is lacking, I am an inveterate letter writer, and I am sure one of Canada Post’s best customers! And so it is with heartfelt gratitude to you, devoted readers, who are the real heroes of my stories, that I give my thanks. Without you, there would be no reason to write of my memories of that special time in my life. And of course, for this paper for giving me a venue, I offer my appreciation. May 2015 be a time when you too will want to make note of those times in the year, which were special to you, and may you remember those people who will have touched your days in a meaningful way, so that they too will become cherished memories, and become part of the fabric in your own book of life.

Why bypassing the home inspection may be an unwise decision when purchasing a new home When it comes to home inspections, Taylor and Ruys http://www.kingstonagents.com/ real estate team of professionals will guide you through the comprehensive home-buying process and provide you with the best possible advice. Some people decide to purchase a home only to find out later about defects. These particular defects may cost even more to repair because they have not taken the ample time to consider a thorough and professional home inspection. In some cases, because there may be more than one prospective buyer interested in the home, the inspection may be omitted as a way to expedite the buying process and save time. Failing to seek a professional home inspection http://www.kingstonagents.com/articles/ can prove to be an unwise decision. While you may need to spend extra buying costs http:// www.kingstonagents.com/buyers/buyers_costs/ on to a professional inspector of around $350$450, that inspector has been highly trained to pinpoint critical or even minor discrepancies or wiring defects that could impair your satisfaction, safety, and livability in that home. Should any deficiencies be addressed, you as the prospective homebuyer may be able to negotiate

the purchase price to cover required repairs. Alternatively, in some cases where defects are serious, the current homeowner will need to remedy the problem beforehand. At any rate, a two to three hour home detailed inspection should be conducted prior to finalizing the offer to purchase for peace of mind and security. Keep in mind that some lenders may also require a professional home inspection. With extensive experience and training in dealing with various homebuyers and properties in Kingston, the Taylor & Ruys team http://www.kingstonagents.com/our-team/ will connect you with professional and experienced inspectors. Taylor & Ruys offer a free online home evaluation service, extensive exposure of your home through online and print, but moreover, a full service written guarantee.
