Kingston’s third crossing project ramps up to ‘shovel ready’ status

By Bill Hutchins

Kingston school comes second in Ontario Schools Battery Recycling Challenge

News – Kingston’s engineering department wants to clear up any public confusion surrounding the status of the muchtouted third bridge crossing over the Cataraqui River.

Several studies are currently underway to get the bridge to a ‘shovel ready’ status by next spring, when councillors are expected to debate whether to approve the actual construction.

At a recent technical briefing for the media, Mark Van Buren, the city’s director of engineering, and Dan Franco, supervising engineer, laid out the complex work that’s to be done over the next year.

“We’re on track as far as council’s mandate,” said Van Buren.

The proposed bridge itself, spanning 1.2 kilometres between John Counter Boulevard and Gore Road, will only be constructed as two lanes, not four lanes, due to a projected slowdown in population growth in about 20 years and evolving transportation technologies such as driverless cars, he explained.

However, the structure will be wide enough to accommodate a multi-use pathway that will be separated from traffic lanes to accommodate pedestrians and cyclists on the south side of the bridge. There will also be mid-bridge observation areas for pedestrians, said Van Buren.

The height of the bridge from the water to the deck will be

Kingston’s third crossing project ramps up to ‘shovel ready’ status quisition on the western shore of the bridge landing, near John Counter Blvd. and Montreal Street, and may expropriate property if land sale deals can’t be reached with private owners.

Other key studies currently underway; exploring possible methods to finance the bridge such as a city-funded or P3 construction/operation model, and drafting a cost-benefit analysis.

The analysis will attempt to put a dollar value on the bridge benefits, examining factors such as lower gas emissions, reduced travel time for commuters, and serving as an emergency highway 401 detour route.

“This is a standardized approach for transportation projects of this scale,” said Van Buren.

He says previous transportation studies confirmed the need for third crossing, including a traffic count on the busy LaSalle Causeway that found a new river crossing is needed even with recent turning lane and traffic signal improvements along the Highway 15 and Highway 2 corridors.

“All of the improvements are still not enough to reduce demand (on the causeway),” he added.

Public input will also be sought before the shovel-ready studies are compiled and presented to council. Van Buren says they are working to a spring 2017 target to lay the groundwork for a final decision from council on whether to formally proceed with construction, and to apply for government grants.

12 to 14 metres.

The final cost of the bridge is a big factor that’s still being nailed down.

The original estimate for a two-lane bridge was $120 million, based on 2011 dollars. Officials concede that figure is sure to rise once inflation is factored in to the revised estimates. “We don’t have any indication that the cost has moved beyond inflationary influences,” said Van Buren.

The city says it would need two-thirds funding from senior levels of government to help pay for the crossing.

J.L. Richards, the project’s lead consultant, is

currently working on the preliminary bridge design. Officials say it will be similar to the design that was first identified in the original environmental assessment in 2013.

Residents will also see the first visible evidence of preliminary bridge work this summer.

A barge with a drill rig will begin testing bedrock beneath the riverbed to support about a dozen bridge piers, starting in mid-July.

“They will test the bedrock depth, quality and bearing capacity,” explained Franco.

The bedrock is estimated to be 30 to 40 metres below the river and the geo-technical work is crucial to design the precise bridge support structure.

Officials are also preparing to finalize land ac-

Kingston school second in Ontario Schools Battery Recycling Challenge Rob Mooy

Quintilian School students know all about batteries.

Since October, students and their teachers have been collecting used batteries for the Ontario Schools Battery Recycling Challenge, a competition which was open to all elementary and secondary schools in the province.

Teachers, staff and most importantly students brought in their batteries from home to recycle them responsibly as part of the initiative, organized by Raw Materials Company & International Metal Salvage, with the hopes of winning some great cash prizes for their school.

It seemed like a daunting task at first, to recycle an average of 1.36 kilograms for every student and staff enrolled at each school - 1.36 kilograms is what the average Canadian household accumulates in one year.

Thousands and thousands of batteries were collected – four 45gallon drums when all was said and done - during the competition which ran from October through April 22.

The results are in and Quintilian finished in second place, competing against 125 elementary and secondary schools in the year long challenge to see who could recycle

the most batteries. In total, 35,666 kilograms (78,631 pounds) were recycled by all schools.

For their efforts Quintilian will receive a cheque for $3,223.

Laura DeSousa, the school’s director, is proud of the effort put in by her little school. With only 35 students, they filled an amazing four 45gallon drums.

Wanting to help the environment and make a difference, students eagerly accepted the challenge.

“This was really neat because we won a lot of money for doing something good for the world,” says Grade 7 student Jim Goobie. “It is like a double win.”

“I am so happy, I did not think we would do that well,” explains Ben Sill, also in Grade 7. “Our school is a small school that is not always recognized. I think it is amazing.”

Grade 6 classmate Peter Barber agrees, “Our school is small, and out of a lot of bigger schools we did really well. That makes me feel that our school is great and even though we might not always get along we worked well together and accomplished second place.”

“We know a lot more about batteries,” adds DeSousa. “We also learned that when a goal is set and everyone works together you can The Kingston school finished in second place, out of 125 Ontario schools, collecting over 135 gallons of batachieve anything.” teries. Photo/Rob Mooy

Beloved local columnist publishes book

By Hollie Pratt-Campbell

hpratt-campbell@metroland.com

News - “Are you the one who writes that column?”

That phrase followed Lynn Rees Lambert around Kingston for over 30 years as people recognized her as the writer of the popular column Conversations; now, it’s also the title of her new book, a collection of columns that appeared in the Kingston This Week between 1978 and 2012.

“I hope people feel like they’re visiting a friend that they haven’t heard from in a while,” Lambert says.

“After that many years of doing a column people got to know me, got to know the family, and then it kind of abruptly ended. Where did everybody go?”

What was it like to choose which columns went into the book?

“Torture,” she laughs. “I had 33 years’ worth to go through and I could only re-print 100, so it was a matter of just reading everything, which took quite a while.”

Lambert describes the process as almost like watching a movie of her life unfold. Conversations focused

largely on life with her family, including her husband “Coach”, son “Spike” and daughter “Twig”, with regular appearances from her sister and nephews.

“Some days Coach would come in and I’d have this long face and he’d say, ‘what’s wrong’? I’d say, ‘our dog just died’. He’d be like, ‘our dog died 10 years ago’ and I’d say ‘yes, but I’m just reading about it now’.

“Other days he’d come in and I’d have a big smile on my face and he’d ask what happened that day.

I’d say ‘today we had a baby girl’. So it was kind of fun – like riding a roller coaster of family events.”

Lambert says the feedback she received from readers over the years also informed which columns she chose for the book.

“Occasionally I’ll bump into people and they’ll say oh I really liked the one about your husband trying to start the chainsaw, or your daughter coming back from the ship, or putting the whole house in code red because someone had the flu.

I hope that people will find some of their favourites.”

lancer at Kingston This Week (called The Shopper’s News at the time), visited her husband’s grandmother at a nursing home and was struck by how lonely many of the residents seemed. She wrote what she describes as a “rant” on the topic and turned it in.

“I didn’t even know if they would want to run it, but as it turned out the publisher, Cam Inglis, really liked it and he ran it on the front page, which surprised the hell out of me. He asked if I wanted to keep doing this.”

The rest, as they say, is history. From there, the column evolved to become largely familyfocused and light-hearted. Are You the One Who Writes That Column? is similarly mostly about family life, broken up into chapters by ‘character’ – Coach, Twig, Spike, The Sister, The Nephs, etc.

There’s also a chapter of new columns to update readers on everything that’s happened since 2012.

Stalled west-end bridge project fuels frustration among motorists, politicians

By Bill Hutchins

News – City politicians are voicing concerns about ongoing delays to complete the Front Road bridge project.

The contractor hired to do the work, Lischer Construction of Carp, was suspended from the site in early May due to a dispute with the city. Officials say the unprecedented step was necessary based on concerns over missed project timelines and potential cost overruns.

“Obviously we understand that that’s a key traffic corridor for the city. The very fact the work wasn’t progressing the way that it should was a red flag,” said Mayor Bryan Paterson.

Mark Van Buren, the city’s director of engineering, says the $3.6 million rehabilitation of the crumbling bridge was supposed to be completed by December 2016. So far, he says the city hasn’t received satisfactory answers from the contractor. “We are looking for a full schedule to show how they intend to complete the work.”

Crews have refurbished the southern two lanes of the well-travelled bridge, a key route for westend commuters near the Invista plant, but the two north-side lanes remain blocked off at the abandoned work site.

Coun. Laura Turner says she’s been getting complaints from motorists about traffic slowdowns and lack of construction activity.

“They’re concerned about accidents possibly happening with fog and inclement conditions, it slows down the traffic and 30 kph (through the construction zone) is very slow and inconvenient.”

Coun. Turner says she’s not privy to behind-the-scenes negotiations but hopes it will be resolved very soon. “It needs to come to a conclusion. We need to get somewhere with this project.”

Van Buren says that city lawyers are involved in the discussions, but won’t confirm whether legal action against the contractor is a possibility. He added: “Our focus is to get this project finished.”

The contractor completed some de-watering work around the bridge footings, which could escalate the project’s price, but no formal claims have been submitted, Van Buren explained.

Mayor Paterson says city officials are exploring various sce-

narios to re-start the bridge repair work – with or without the original contractor. “All options are on the table - everything from temporary measures to more permanent solutions. But we’re going to have to wait until the investigation from staff is complete.”

One scenario being discussed involves temporarily repaving and reopening the two travel lanes on the bridge’s north-side to ease traffic congestion until the work can resume.

“We’re looking at all options moving forward to ensure that we can get the traffic flow back to the way it needs to be as soon as possible,” the mayor added.

Van Buren says the ongoing delay is having a ripple effect as motorists seek alternative routes to avoid the Front Road bridge logjam.

Frustrated city officials say that while most road and bridge projects get done on time and on budget, this is not one of them. “This is one

of those not done on the timeline we wanted,” said Van Buren.

Construction crews were just a few weeks into their third season of bridge work when the city temporarily suspended the project. The delay is now into its second month.

To put the delay into perspective, officials concede it’s taking longer to complete the Front Road bridge rehabilitation project than it would to construct the proposed 1.2 kilometre wide third bridge crossing of the Cataraqui River.

EDITORIAL

In Our Opinion

Kingston Pen: To tour or not to tour Column - Ten years ago, my wedding was held at Portsmouth Olympic Harbour. I can say in all honesty that as we were planning the wedding, I never gave a single thought to the fact that Kingston Pen was right next door.

It wasn’t until that day itself arrived and all our guests from out of town carried on about how exciting/ironic/ horrifying it was to be so close to the infamous institution - for a wedding, of all things - that I realized how strange the location might appear to those who aren’t accustomed to driving by and largely ignoring the penitentiary every day.

Certainly, Kingston is famous for being a prison town, but this is something I’ve always tried to put out of my mind, at least as far as the maximum security pens are concerned. While it’s lovely to think of inmates who’ve perhaps just run into a bit of tough luck in life being rehabilitated at the other institutions through programs like the (hopefully soon to be restored) prison farms, I’ve always viewed Kingston Pen and Millhaven in a category more unto themselves.

Like most who live here, I know quite a few people who work for Corrections. I’ve heard horror stories about things that happen behind the walls of

these places, from guards being raped to feces being thrown around during riots. I remember clearly when Paul Bernardo first came to Kingston Pen, then Russell Williams, then Mohammad Shafia. For me, these men and the crimes they committed have never stirred up a hint of excitement or even intrigue. The fact that they came to my city made me a little sick, to be honest.

So when KP closed a few years ago and everyone else was all excited about the first round of tours, I chickened out.

Initially, I assumed I would take a tour one way or another. But I ended up opting out of the media day for no better reason than an aversion to entering the building. A few weeks later, I purchased a ticket, which I gave away to a friend at the last minute for the same reason.

That said, I quite enjoyed the tour I took through Alcatraz in San Francisco. I’m sure there were people incarcerated there who were just as scary as Bernardo, Williams and Shafia, and I’m sure a good number of terrifying riots also took place on the foggy old island.

But that prison also closed in the ‘60s. Those inmates and their crimes don’t still haunt the collective memory of the immediate or neighbouring communities. Instead, Alcatraz tells visitors of the real-life Godfather type figure Al Capone, the famous ornithologist prisoner the Bird Man of Alcatraz, and all the other inmates whose real or fictional stories have been immortalized and romanticized by Hollywood.

The only place I’ve been to that strikes me as a particularly difficult tourist attraction is the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC. I knew visiting it would be emotionally trying, but I still felt it was important to go and bear witness, so to speak, to humanity at its worst; to acknowledge the horror of what happened and remember how important it is to make sure this kind of thing is never repeated. My visiting the filthy old institution that housed the three Canadian monsters mentioned above doesn’t carry anywhere near the same importance, so why would I put myself through that discomfort?

That said, I am glad there are a lot of people out there who do find KP fascinating and want to tour it, mostly because it’s good for the city. It will bring in a lot of tourists from out of town and the best part is 50 per cent of profits will go to the local United Way to support youth programs and initiatives.

Who knows? Maybe a sort of ‘Alcatraz North’ is the right choice for the future of the property, especially given the amount of interest there seems to be in these tours.

Maybe my kids’ generation and beyond will easily be able to see it this way, having not lived through the crimes of its most infamous inmates or heard the first-hand horror stories.

Maybe someday I’ll even find the courage to take a tour personally. In the meantime, I’ll continue to drive by – and not think too hard about - that dreary old building.

Don’t forget about Dad Editorial –This year, Father’s Day in Canada is on June 19, and while the day doesn’t have the same history and longevity that Mother’s Day has (dating back to 1908), it is still an important day.

Father’s Day has been celebrated in different countries around the world since around the time Mother’s Day was established, but it wasn’t until the 1970s that it became an official day, in June. But in North America, even now, it struggles to find the same status as Mother’s Day. Dads are often viewed as low maintenance and easy going and while this may be true in many cases, they still deserve some attention on Father’s Day. They want to feel appreciated just like mom and although you may not feel that buying them flowers, chocolates and a mushy card, are appropriate, there are many other ways to show that you care.

In a recent survey, researchers asked dads what they wanted most for Father’s Day and while many of us think it may be the latest power tool, golfing gear or electronics, 44 per cent of dads said they want to spend time with their immediate family. Only three per cent expressed a want for gifts or treats and many stated that they would be happy with recognition for their hard work as a dad or simply a day off to do nothing.

We think this sounds pretty easy. Dads, in true low maintenance fashion, just want some time off to be with their family, maybe tell some dad jokes or reminisce about the past and who are we to object to that? Perhaps you could also make them their favourite meal or take them out for one, or maybe just bring them a drink as they lounge around the house.

Prison farm progress a glimmer of hope Out Standing in Our Field

Column - It’s been nearly six years since the massive blockades of Collins Bay penitentiary. Since hundreds of people put their bodies in the way of the removal of dairy cattle and the closures of the prison farm. Since two dozen people—and one donkey—were arrested trying to stop what they saw as not only a bad policy decision, but a threat to democratic process.

To people outside of Kingston, hearing about the prison farm struggle for the first time in a burst of national news coverage, the breaking of the blockade probably looked like a defeat.

Instead, those events forged a movement with real staying power. In the days after the blockade, prison farm supporters pooled their money to buy cows from that prize-winning dairy herd, forming the Pen Farm Herd Co-op, and they’ve maintained those genetic lines to reconstitute the herd.

A prison farm vigil has taken place every Monday night across from Collins Bay. Die-hard supporters have been there—whether freezing or sweltering, snow or rain or sunshine—for over 300 weekly vigils.

Now, finally, there is real progress on the restoration of the prison farms. In keeping with a pre-election promise, the federal Liberals have ordered a feasibility study on restoring the two prison farms in Kingston. (Restoration of the other four across Canada doesn’t seem to be on the table.)

As part of that process,

the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) is conducting an electronic survey about the prison farms, online at: www.csc-scc.gc.ca/consult/ index-en.shtml The anonymous survey on “institutional agribusiness,” as they call the prison farms, can be filled out until Aug. 2.

I would encourage you to fill out the survey. It’s a bit on the long side—choosing an answer often generates a new box asking you to expand or clarify—but you can skip questions and still submit the survey. If you are concise, it may only take you five minutes to fill out.

If you want to be more detailed, that’s great, but there are a few key priorities that the community expressed clearly six years ago, and that we need to reiterate now.

First of all, it’s essential that the prison farm land be kept intact. The CSC survey asks: “To what extent do you agree that the land previously used for CSC’s institutional agribusiness must continue to be used for these purposes?”

We need to keep that farmland to feed our community.

Covering it with houses or factories would be unacceptable. Much of the best farmland in Canada has already been paved over—it’s underneath Toronto and other cities—and continues to be lost at a dizzying rate. We can’t afford to lose any more if we want to sustain ourselves in a future of global warming and unpredictable energy and water supplies.

And second, we have to emphasize the value of farming, in particular, for rehabilitation. The CSC survey focuses quite a bit on whether prisoners will get jobs as

farmers, which has never been the primary concern of prison farm advocates.

Farming can help people to cultivate a wide variety of skills—from mechanical ability to personal qualities like diligence and persistence. But farming is different from most trades, in that caring for other creatures encourages empathy.

We know this in part because prisoners themselves told us that working with the dairy cows, in particular, developed their empathy.

That it helped to keep them from becoming hardened by prison.

And while some people want to make prison into a universally terrible and debasing experience, the simple reality is that the vast majority of prisoners are eventually released into the community. Eventually we will pass them walking down the street.

We should make it clear to CSC—on this survey and in other ways—that this matters to us, and that “public safety” should mean something other than just building bigger prisons.

The restoration of the prison farms is still in the earliest stages. It’s happening slowly. And I don’t know how committed CSC is to maintaining the entirety of the farmland.

But here’s what I do know: The strength of the prison farm movement came from the fact that it didn’t just go with the flow. That people were willing to take a stand, and to obstruct business as usual, in order to protect their community and that farmland.

We did it then. And if we have to, we’ll do it again.

Land use study recommends new development at airport

By Bill Hutchins

News – Kingston’s airport has plenty of room to accommodate more than just flights, according to a new land use study.

A city-hired consultant studied six land parcels on the periphery of Norman Rogers Airport, covering nearly half of the airport’s 275 hectares, which could be marketed for future development.

However, officials say residents who live near the airport’s northern boundary shouldn’t be concerned about future development near their backyards. That’s because the two largest plots of land under review – identified as parcels #3 and #5 - are recommended to remain “as is” for the next 20 years. These include the 33-hectare Landings Golf Course, which just signed a 20 year lease extension with the city, and most of a 48-hectare wooded area on the airport’s northern boundary.

“It’s a great complementary use.

So, we see (the golf course) staying there for many years. As well, there’s a large treed area that’s south of residential homes that provides a great buffer, and we see that staying as is in the current timeline of the study,” according to Peter Huigenbos, the city’s manager of real estate and land development.

A corner lot, known as parcel #4, bordering Front Road and Bayridge Drive is also recommended to be left alone.

“Developing all of the airport right away is not a feasible solution and we’re going to target a few of the areas that can be marketed for development,” Huigenbos explained.

Lakeside councillor Laura Turner, whose district includes the airport, supports more commercial uses for the airport, but is pleased that it won’t occur too close to existing homes. “I think it’s nice the trees

will be left and it will give residents a buffer from the planes.”

That leaves three other parcels, mainly located on the airport’s southern entrance, which could be earmarked for future development.

Explorer Solutions, the consultant hired to evaluate land uses, has identified a series of potential aviation-related industries that could be developed on parcels #1, #2 and #6.

These so-called ‘cluster concepts’ include airline research and development, 3D printing of lightweight aircraft components, aircraft maintenance and flight schools.

Parcels #1 and #2 are located closest to the current airport terminal and hangars and could support light industrial aviation-related developments. If parcel #2 is developed the golf course may lose its driving range. Parcel #6, on the western border with Lemoine Point, could be used for solar panels, according to the study’s draft report.

2016’s ar e here!

“The potential for renewable energy such as solar to provide the airport with energy may or may not be feasible but it’s interesting for sure,” said Huigenbos.

The city owns all of the airport lands and any future development would have to get necessary planning and zoning approvals. Officials also say the land would be leased, not sold.

Once the draft ideas from the airport land use study are presented to a public open house June 13, the final recommendations will be sent to council for approval this fall.

“I think it could use more development that’s aviation related.

We need to encourage development there,” added Coun. Turner.

While some Auden Park residents were concerned the entire wooded area buffering their neighbourhood from the airport would be cut down for development, city officials stressed that won’t be happening.

However, studies found the size of parcel #5 can be increased to 48 hectares, instead of 33 hectares, which brings potential development closer to the runway than previously thought. This would allow for some aircraft maintenance development in the future while still leaving plenty of buffer room from nearby homes.

The land use study is not tied to the planned $16 million airport expansion, which is expected to begin later this year. The passenger terminal expansion and a 1,000-foot runway extension have already been approved by council.

It’s not the first time Kingston’s airport has tried to attract complimentary uses. In the early 2000s, Millenium Biologix, a then-fast growing biotech firm, unveiled plans to build its headquarters in the shape of an aircraft wing on the airport’s sprawling front lawn. However, the bold office-style development was later abandoned.

Environmental Review Tribunal wraps up on Amherst Island; results expected by end of June

By Mandy Marciniak mandymarciniak@metroland.com

News – On June 7, members of the Association to Protect Amherst Island (APAI), along with many Island residents, gathered at St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church to hear the final submissions in their appeal against Windlectric Inc. The submissions were the final part of the more than six month long Environmental Review Tribunal (ERT) that took place regarding the project, and members of APAI were feeling optimistic.

“It has been a long process and we are very proud of what we have accomplished and we are very con-

fident,” said Michele Le Lay, a member of APAI before the final hearing. “We feel we had a fair hearing.”

The final instalment of the tribunal started with a statement from island resident and concerned parent Amy Caughey, who originally spoke to the tribunal in December. Caughey’s main concern is the proposed placement of a concrete batching plant and high-voltage substation directly next to the school on the island.

“It seems like all the industrial activity will be occurring next to the school and I think it is too close,” she said. “Also, the cumulative impacts of this project, espe-

cially on the school, have not been assessed. It seems that each component is looked at individually, but it is not looked at as a whole and I think that is a major problem.”

Caughey explained that after six months of hearings she still has numerous unanswered questions about the safety of the project, especially in relation to the school, and she worries that her children and others will be at risk.

“The project is putting children’s safety at risk and that is something that I don’t think we, as Ontarians, want to tolerate,” she said. “We don’t have enough information and if we just go ahead and do this, it is actually our children who become the test to see if the directive is right or wrong and I think that is entirely inappropriate in Canada in 2016.”

Prior to her statement, Caughey was also feeling very optimistic about the fate of the appeal and

Environmental Review Tribunal wraps up on Amherst Island; results expected by end of June For their side, Windlectric’s lawyer, Arlen Sternberg, also focused much of his closing statements on the Blanding’s turtle. He claimed that Stantec Consulting, a company hired by Windlectric to conduct environmental surveys, had not found evidence of the turtle in the construction areas. He stood by the claim that they stick to coastal areas and stated that the appellant has not provided sufficient evidence to cancel the project.

Results of the tribunal are expected by the end of June and Le Lay is looking forward to having some closure – hopefully.

“It has been an even longer process than just this with Windlectric appeal,” she said. “We have been fighting wind turbines on the island for nearly 10 years and there were two other projects before that were dropped. We feel the timing of this tribunal has been good and we are hoping for the best.”

said. “It was a big step forward.”

The results Caughey spoke to came from another ERT, just kilometers away in Prince Edward County, where the Gilead Power Corporation Ostrander Point industrial wind turbine project appeal was upheld. The nine-turbine project, which was fought by the Prince Edward County Field Naturalists (PECFN), was denied because the tribunal felt aspects of the project would cause ‘serious and irreversible harm to animal life, a species at risk and its habitat’. That species at risk is the Blanding’s turtle, a species APAI is also fighting to protect.

“We have experts that demonstrated that there are Blanding’s turtles on the island and they are endangered by this project,” said Le Lay. “Even the developers’ expert talked about the presence of these turtles and we are hopeful that the tribunal will find that they are endangered here too.”

In the closing discussions, APAI’s lawyer, Eric Gillespie, relied heavily on the evidence

surrounding the Blanding’s turtle to make his case. He pointed out that while the studies done

by Windlectric show turtle habitats are limited to the coastal marshes, approximately 30 per cent of the turtles were spotted elsewhere on the island.

He also pointed out that according to experts, the turtles usually don’t go more than 250 metres away from their habitat to nest, so it is safe to assume that there are turtle habitats elsewhere on the island.

“Unless we have special Kenyan Olympic turtles that travel all over the place, I think it is safe to say they are on other parts of the island too,” said Gillespie.

Gillespie argued that these turtles could be harmed by the construction of the turbines and so could their habitats. He also pointed out the damage that the turbines could cause to the habitats of birds and the little brown bat.

Further, Gillespie’s closing arguments stated that the turbines would be harmful to human health as well, the other main argument APAI has made throughout the process and one that has been backed up by numerous experts along the way.

Heather Ford and Daniel Barrett launched Kingston Food Tours with the help of Mayor Bryan Paterson and some special guests on June 8 in front of City Hall. Photo/Mandy Marciniak scene is in a city,” she said. “I immediately thought about doing one in Kingston and I knew Daniel would be a natural because of the way he is with our guests.”

After thinking about the idea more, Barrett and Ford started contacting restaurant owners in the city to see if they would be interested and they were overwhelmed by the response they received.

“Because we have been in the hospitality business for so long and we don’t have food service on site, we are very familiar with local restaurateurs,” said Ford. “So when we approached the businesses it was incredibly heart-warming; everyone we approached said yes immediately.”

With ‘yesses’ from some of their favourites, Barrett and Ford put the wheels in motion and officially launched Kingston Food Tours on June 8. The initial tour will focus on ‘Classic Kingston’ spots and will include Dianne’s Fish Shack and Smokehouse, Pan Chancho, Olivea, Tango Nuevo, Atomica and the

Common Market.

“These are all locally owned restaurants that really show off Kingston,” said Ford. “The tour will also take participants to some popular Kingston landmarks, talk about Kingston’s history and make stops at specialty shops Kingston Olive Oil Company and General Brock’s Commissary.”

Tours take place at 11 a.m. and last almost three hours. Ford hopes that by the end participants have learned more about Kingston and its food scene; she also hopes they are full.

“We hope people learn something and above all, that they enjoy the food,” she said. “It is interesting for tourists, but also Kingstonians. It was even interesting for us to hear the stories and learn more about our favourite places.”

Kingston Food Tours run Wednesday to Sunday at 11 a.m. from now until October. For more information and tickets visit www.kingstonfoodtours.ca or look for them on Twitter or Facebook

Cycling Week events work to highlight cycling safety, skills and education

By Mandy Marciniak mandymarciniak@metroland.com

News – Drivers and cyclists are always quick to pick on each other when it comes to sharing the road, but according to Paul Rappell, a member of Cycle Kingston, education and communication can solve a lot of these issues.

“It is a matter of communicating your intentions and if you do that you can cycle or drive a car on the road without getting angry or upset,” he said. “By simply knowing the rules of the road and abiding by them, a lot of issues can be prevented.”

Education is a main focus for Cycle Kingston and each year they hold Cycling Week, with the help of community partners, to promote responsible cycling in the city.

This year, Cycling Week took place the week of June 5 to 12 and included multiple events including roll-up breakfasts throughout the city, community rides, public talks, movies and more.

“Events have been going really well, we have seen some rain, but people have been coming out,” said Rappell at the roll-up breakfast on June 8. “We have increased the scope of these events every year and we have more people involved each year too and that is great to see.”

The events, like the roll-up breakfasts, work to thank cyclists for choosing to cycle in the city, but they also hope to educate community members too.

“A bicycle is a vehicle and cyclists should be behaving as vehicles,” said Rappell. “In Kingston, relations between cyclists and drivers aren’t so bad, but it is the breaking of the law that people see and remember and that is where the problems come in.”

In Rappell’s experience, the reputation of one cyclist rests on what all the others are doing and the same goes for drivers.

“We all get lumped together,” he said. “But if there is mutual respect, education and a good level of communication then everyone can be happy.”

To further the knowledge of both drivers and cyclists on safe practices, Cycle Kingston also held their fourth annual Kingston Cycling and Youth Safety Festival on June 12 at the Rogers K-Rock Center. The event was free and not just for kids.

“One main attraction was the ‘cycling skills circuit’ on the ice pad, ice-free, of course, where community members learned and practiced basic necessary skills such as straight-line riding, signaling, and glancing back to check for traffic,” explained Rappell. “It is interesting to see because kids are pretty fearless when they get on the circuit, but adults sometimes feel uncomfortable taking their hand off the bar to signal. It is something they have never done before.”

The event also included emergency vehicles and buses that were on site on The Tragically Hip Way. They allowed cyclists to see just how big the blind spots can be on these vehicles.

“It can be a big issue,” said Rappell. “We want to keep out of the blind spot of any vehicle, but especially larger vehicles because their blind spots are so big; this allows cyclists to see where they should be positioning themselves to be safe.”

In addition to the circuit and larger vehicles, participants at the event, which is run in conjunction with Optimistes Kingston, also took part in face painting, child ID registration, bike inspections done by Yellow Bike Action and more “It was a great event for people to come out to and join with various members of the cycling community to see what skills can help you out on the road,” said Rappell. “Our goal is really to inform the community and promote safe cycling and these events do just that.”

Three Kingston schools receive Healthy School certification

By Mandy Marciniak mandymarciniak@metroland.com

TICO#50007364

News – Students in Kingston are showing that healthy, active living is a priority for them and they are being rewarded for their successes.

Earlier this month, Regiopolios Notre Dame Catholic High School, Archbishop O’Sullivan Catholic Elementary School and Bayridge Secondary School in Kingston received certification as Healthy Schools after completing a yearlong certification process. Ophea, a non-profit group that promotes healthy activity in Ontario schools, conducted the program and although this year marked the first year for the program, Ophea executive director and CEO, Chris Markham, explained that the ideas behind the certification aren’t new.

“It is about how schools engage with the community and how they make a difference in the lives of students,” he said. “As the saying goes ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ and this emphasizes that idea. It is a more formal way of recognizing schools and communities working together to plan and take action on priority health projects in their communities.”

Even though the program just started out, they received numerous submissions from across the province and in the end they certified over 100 schools.

Certifications were based on points and schools could earn gold, silver or bronze levels. Points were awarded based on six steps: establishing a school team; assessing the needs of the school and community; identifying a priority health topic, developing an action plan, taking action and celebrating accomplishments.

In Kingston, Bayridge Secondary School received Bronze certification for their Fitness Unlimited Ef-

fort and Literacy (FUEL) program created by English teacher Vicki McConnell and Phys. Ed teacher Kate Barrow. The school chose to focus on physical activity as their health topic and they saw some very encouraging results.

“It was a pilot program that com-

bined Phys. Ed class and English class and it really allowed us an opportunity to get kids up and moving in between lessons,” explained McConnell. “We would get the kids up and moving halfway through class, doing jumping jacks or stretches or we would go chairless and use sta-

bility balls and the kids really loved it.”

The goal of FUEL was to help kids focus more by providing them an outlet for their energy and McConnell saw results immediately.

“We saw an increase in focus, an increase in their ability to be pro-

ductive and it was a really amazing experience.”

The program included 15 Grade 10 students and ran for just one semester, but participants are still seeing the impacts of the program Continued on page 22

Three Kingston schools receive Healthy School certification Continued from page 21

in their second school semester.

“It is hard to not do those things now and not to have those breaks,” said student Haley Long. “With FUEL I was sleeping better, I was more active and I was eating better too. Now, I find myself encouraging other teachers to incorporate body breaks into their classes because I know they work.”

McConnell is planning to run the program again next year and she hopes that other schools will take an interest too.

“It is so easy to incorporate this level of physical activity into the classes and the impacts are worth it,” she said.

Across the city, students at Regiopolis Notre Dame Catholic High School chose to take on mental health as their health topic and they earned Silver certification for their work throughout the school year.

“We were already doing quite a few things here to support overall health and wellness for our students and it was easy for us to continue to do more and really focus on mental health,” explained Colleen Glancey Cox, guidance counsellor at the school.

The school chose to focus on

mental health because within that topic they could also focus on physical health too.

“We could focus on a wide variety of things seeing as mental health and physical health tie together,” explained student Mara Medeiros. “We ran things like fit Fridays and every week we had a different activity like dance parties, and different types of workouts like yoga or Zumba.”

The school also worked to establish a committee that included parents, teachers, students and local organizations to talk about what they could do to help students who may be having mental health issues.

“We have a mental health ambassador group in the school and our youth workers have established a safe space for students during lunch hours,” explained Glancey Cox. “It is a place where people can go and relax and work on puzzles and play games with other individuals. We have really worked to break down the barriers surrounding mental health in the school.”

Medeiros has seen the effects of these initiatives firsthand and she is pleased to see more students engaging with mental health issues.

“Talking about mental health in the school has become more normal,” she said. “We are ending the stigma and that is what we set out

to do. It doesn’t seem like a huge thing, but it really is and this certifi-

cation helps with that too.”

Inmate on statutory release arrested after attempting to rob pharmacy across from penitentiary It appears a 52-year-old federal inmate on statutory release at the Henry Trail Centre, located beside Collins Bay Penitentiary, did not travel far and was not in a rush to conduct a robbery at the pharmacy

across the road.

Police say that at approximately 2 p.m. on June 6 the accused walked into the Food Basics pharmacy, located at 1300 Bath Road, and handed the pharmacist a note advising he was

conducting a robbery. The pharmacist consulted with a co-worker who advised the accused to wait by the cash register. Kingston Police were then called via 9-1-1, uniform patrol officers quickly attended and found

the male seated and still patiently waiting. He was arrested without incident.

The accused was transported to police headquarters to attend a bail hearing the following day for the

offence of robbery. The parole office was contacted and a parole revocation warrant was also executed. The accused was on statutory release in relation to a six year sentence for a 2009 robbery out of Toronto.

Wide range of drugs seized from University Avenue residence, Kingston man arrested Police report that a 23-year-old local man is facing multiple drug charges after the Kingston Police Street Crime Unit executed a search warrant on a University Avenue residence.

In May of 2016 the Street Crime Unit received information about a man selling various drugs out of his home on University Avenue, located near Brock Street. On June 6 a Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA) search warrant was authorized by the Ontario Court of Justice, and with the assistance of the Emergency Response Unit it was executed at approximately 4 p.m.

The accused was the only person found inside and he was placed under arrest. A search of the residence

revealed quantities of marijuana, cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, amphetamine, hydromorphone, Alprazolam and MDMA (Ecstasy).

There were over 250 grams in powdered or crystalized substances, and over 200 pills, seized.

There was $1,900 in Canadian currency seized as proceeds of crime.

Also discovered and seized were multiple scales, packaging materials, a cell phone, a pellet handgun and a knife. The accused was transported to police headquarters to attend a bail hearing the following day. He is facing six counts of Possession of a Controlled Substance for the Purpose of Trafficking and one count of Possession of Proceeds of Crime.

Speak wisely

COLUMNIST

@markaidanbergin There are times when I think that English grammar and style have been completely abandoned in our culture.

Why bother using good grammar?

For a start, not doing so makes you appear (or proves you are) less intelligent.

The use of proper grammar is an important part of being able to communicate effectively. A person’s education level can often be determined by their communication and writing skills.

Sadly, even some university grads these days don’t know how to put together a simple sentence in the English language.

As a faculty member of St. Lawrence College, the administration wisely reminds me regularly of the importance of clear communication skills. Over the past year, there has been a big push at the college for a literacy initiative, to make sure all of our students are able to communicate clearly by the time they graduate. This initiative not only includes skills in the general realm of academics, but also in common skills in areas like email etiquette. It doesn’t matter if someone is teaching math, a police foundations course or a video editing course; faculty members are encouraged to include some method in every course to help students improve their basic communications and English language skills.

For example, in a course I teach in music and digital media there are written components on which students are graded. It’s all part of an overall goal to improve literacy levels. This is a good thing. It’s something that has been ignored or downplayed for too long in the education system.

I’m a stickler about grammar, especially in the realm of education. Several years ago, one of my children brought a note home from school. It had been written by a teacher candidate doing his placement in my child’s class. The note was of such poor quality in terms of English language skills that I took the red pen I use for editing and made a large number of copy editing corrections and returned it to the teacher candidate. I’m sure my input was not appreciated, but someone had to let this potential teacher know that he appeared uneducated. Clearly whoever was supervising him had not bothered to help him improve his

communication skills.

We know that following the introduction of television, as the population turned toward the screen and away from the book, literacy levels fell. Likewise, with the texting world, slang, acronyms, jargon and numerous shortcuts dominate.

Are grammar and style still important or even relevant? I maintain that they are more important than ever. When I place a post on Facebook or some other social media, it reaches far more people than could have been imagined even two decades ago. There are no take-backs once you’ve posted online. You can delete it later, but you can’t do anything about the thousands of people who could have forwarded or reposted it elsewhere.

What are some of my pet peeves (there are many)?

My biggest complaint about the English language is its lack of standardization.

The English language exists in a highly compartmentalized world. Canadian spelling (and some grammar and style issues) is different from U.K. spelling, which is different from Australian, which is different from that in the United States. For heaven’s sake, we have to get our act together in this language and use a consistent set of rules.

The Canadian system is an incomprehensible mongrel in the world of English grammar and style.

It’s a hodge podge of UK, American and French, along with some unique attributes with an etymology in Irish or Italian.

For example, Canadians tend to use the British system regarding the use of “u” in words like honor and These are a few of the recommended reference books for those wanting to improve their color. On the other hand, we use the American system communication skills in the English language. Photo/Mark Bergin for words like organize (rather than organise), and we use the abbreviations Dr., Mr. and Ms. instead of the British Dr, Mr and Ms, where there is no period.

I argue that from a green perspective, the American system is the best. They don’t toss the “u” into words.

Buying your first house?

With the abandonment of the “u” where it’s really not Decided to move into a larger home? Have the right mortgage protection in needed, we save trees. Over the years of ignoring the place with a personally owned insurance policy. “u” billions of times, we save space on the written page and could save entire forests. Also, less polluting With mortgage insurance through a financial institution, the policy and rates ink is required. Finally, in the name of efficiency, it are subject to change and if you refinance your mortgage, you may have takes me less time to write color than it does to create to requalify. With personally owned policies, the rates are guaranteed the word colour. and the policy cannot be cancelled unless you request it.

On a given day, if I’m in edit mode, I could have several reference books in front of me. Within reach could be The Canadian Press Stylebook, The Associated Press Stylebook and The Chicago Manual of Style. These are a few of many possibilities.

Enchanté Continued from page 7

To anyone who wants to write well, there are a few essential and concise books I recommend: The Elements of Style by Strunk and White, as well as Lynne Truss’s Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation. The newest book on my must-own list is June Casagrande’s The Best Punctuation Book, Period.

Casagrande explains clearly that there isn’t one correct way to write, but there are many wrong ways.

She looks at the major forms of punctuation in the English language. She describes rules of each style: book editing style for authors of fiction, non-fiction and popular magazines; news media and business writing, which is based

on The Associated Press Stylebook (in Canada, The Canadian Press Stylebook) and Webster’s New World College Dictionary; science style, based on The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association and MerriamWebster’s Collegiate Dictionary; and academic style, which is based on The MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers. Each of these styles has differing rules.

There are many examples of how poor grammar can make you look foolish. The title of Eats, Shoots & Leaves (with an image of a panda eating bamboo shoots on the cover) indicates what a difference a single comma can make.

There are some key foibles in the English language, regardless of which style you use.

Speak wisely For example, people often get confused about the use of then and than.

Sometimes they misuse loose or lose.

Learn to use them properly: I may lose my pants if I wear a pair that is too loose.

If you want to improve your writing, read constantly.

I’ve saved the most controversial issue for last: The Oxford comma.

I prefer the less is more concept. In other words, I don’t tend to use that Oxford comma. I like the Canadian Press guideline on the use of the final comma: “Put commas between the elements of a series but not before the final and, or or nor unless that avoids confusion.”

For example, use: men, women, children and pets; but include the comma in a situation like: Breakfast consisted of oatmeal, fried eggs, and bread and butter.

Funding to our health care system will increase by over $1 billion this year.

My recommendation would be to pick a style that fits your type of writing, and adhere to the style.

If you want to improve your in-depth understanding of English grammar and style, I’d recommend John Warriner’s English Composition and Grammar, Benchmark Edition. It’s a massive text and at one time was used in many North American schools. Warriner died in 1987, so the newest edition available is from 1988. It’s a superb reference that’s worth owning. At one time it formed the basis for English courses from grades 6 through 12 in the United States. It remains one of the best texts ever written on English grammar, regardless of spelling issues in your country of origin.

I’d check local used book stores like Wayfarer (85 Princess St.) and Berry &

Peterson (348 King St. E.) to see if they have a copy. Otherwise, you can usually find copies on amazon.ca or ebay.ca (no copies were available through indigo.ca or Chapters when I checked last week).

One last highly recommended reference for general grammar issues as well as proper use of words like lie/ lay, which/that, ironically/coincidentally, much/many, and between/among is The Grouchy Grammarian by Thomas Parrish.

Whichever grammar system you use, be consistent. If you fail to do so, don’t be surprised if the world around you doesn’t perceive you as the intelligent person you are.

I ain’t kidding.

Renovated KGH spaces give kids something to smile about

By Mandy Marciniak

mandymarciniak@metroland.com

News – Several spaces at Kingston General Hospital have become more kid friendly thanks to a renovation from the Smilezone Foundation.

The foundation, with the help of the Kingston Frontenacs, BMO and some local donors, unveiled seven kid-friendly spaces at the hospital on June 7, including waiting rooms and patient rooms.

Local mom Tara McCallan was particularly grateful for the changes, especially given how much time she and her daughter, Pip, spend at the

hospital.

At just three and a half, Pip has Down syndrome, congenital cataracts, congenital heart defects, hypertonia, hypothyroidism, celiac disease and more and with all of that comes a lot of medical appointments.

“Most moms get to coordinate their days around play dates and parks and while we get to do some of those things, we usually have a daily appointment that we need to attend,” explained McCallan. “Waiting rooms help hold us together, but waiting rooms have also angered me and frustrated me when there is nothing for Pip to do in them.”

Smilezone spaces give Pip

something to do, and they also give McCallan a space she can enjoy and feel safe in.

“Waiting rooms have, in a sense, become my little girl’s playground and Pip knows no different,” she said. “We go to these appointments and see doctors and specialists and everyone is poking and prodding at her. She gets upset, and the waiting rooms give us a space where she can calm down and play and smile.”

This isn’t the first time Smilezone has renovated hospital spaces in Kingston; in November, they unveiled a number of

renovated spaces at Hotel Dieu Hospital with the help of the Tragically Hip. Dr. Robert Connelly, director of pediatrics, was present at that unveiling and he was pleased when he heard that Smilezone wanted to do the same to KGH. “I don’t even think the paint was dry there and they were over here at KGH wondering what they could do,” he said. “It was incredible.”

In addition to the pediatric rooms that Smilezone renovated, they also took on oncology waiting rooms,

something Connelly was pleasantly surprised to see.

“They had a vision here and they saw that kids aren’t just in pediatric spaces, they are also where their parents are being looked after and they need a space where they can be safe and happy while they are with them,” he said. “I thought that was really incredible and it really embodies the family centric care we strive for here at KGH.” Continued on page 11

Renovated KGH spaces give kids something to smile about Continued from page 10

These additional spaces are also very comforting for Bridget Leger, who at six months pregnant, had to deal with being away from her two young kids and husband while she received treatments for Hodgkins Lymphoma.

“Battling cancer when you are raising a young family was beyond challenging,” she said. “My kids often asked me why they couldn’t come to appointments with me and I truly believe that if they could have seen this place and met the people responsible for my care then my cancer wouldn’t

have been such a scary mystery to them. Until today it just wasn’t possible.”

Leger was concerned that the hospital would scare her kids and that there just wasn’t a space for them to be in while she received her chemo treatments.

“A room like this, that Smilezone created, would have made it possible for them to come and play in the space and come visit me occasionally too,” she said. “Having this special room here now will make it possible for me and other parents to include their children in visits to the oncology department.

I know it will be a really comforting space on a very troubling journey and for that I am so appreciative.”

New Ontario Safety Standards for vehicles coming Brian Turner

CAR COUNSELLOR bjoeturner@hotmail.com

On July 1 of this year a totally revised set of regulations will come into effect covering the inspections of light trucks and passenger vehicles applying for an Ontario Safety Standard Certificate. These examinations (commonly referred to as a DOT), are required when used vehicles change ownership but as with existing

rules, the new standards that are coming into effect can also be applied to currently licensed vehicles on the road if an MTO enforcement or police services officer finds something amiss during a routine roadside check.

The current regulations haven’t received a major update in decades while vehicle technology has advanced faster and faster at almost light-speed every year. It would surprise most motorists that current rules don’t recognize air-bags, anti-lock brakes, or hybrid drive systems for example that have been around for years.

First and foremost the most important thing for consumers to know about these inspections and the Safety Standards Certificates is that they are not a statement of warranty or attestation to the reliability of any vehicle. They are simply a recording of the condition of a set and specific number of components and systems on the vehicle at the moment of its inspection by a qualified and licensed technician. While the new rules encompass a very large number of areas not previously reported on, they don’t cover nearly everything that can go wrong with a vehicle.

For shoppers purchasing a pre-owned vehicle from a reputable, licensed and OMVIC (Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council) registered retailer, these new regulations won’t mean much of a change.

Good and customer-friendly stores have always gone above and beyond the bare minimum standards when it comes to reconditioning and preparing used vehicles.

Some in the industry were concerned that the new requirements for inspection and recording a variety of measurements would add considerable time (and therefore cost) to these processes, but the Ontario Ministry of Transportation has stated that in preliminary trials they completed with average repair shops, it only took about 10 minutes longer.

The new inspections will fail vehicles for a lot more than they used to for things such as weak shocks or struts, or an engine turbocharger with an oil leak. One item

that’s sure to be a favourite with drivers who have been blinded by vehicles with modified headlamps is the outlawing of the use of High Intensity Discharge (HID) bulbs in lamps that were never designed to take them. New rules on window tinting will also limit the darkness of the tint to a spec that states it must allow 70 per cent of the light to transmit in or out. Inspection shops will need to obtain a tint meter for this and this particular rule won’t apply to any vehicle built before Jan. 1, 2017.

The regulations now carry very clear and easy to understand wording and definitions and if you are considering having an inspection done to an older vehicle, you might find them a worthwhile read. You can find the technician’s guide at mto. gov.on.ca/english/trucks/pdfs/passenger-lightduty-vehicle-inspection-standard.pdf.

Start day with strawberry breakfast parfaits with wheat berries This is an easy summer entertaining brunch idea.

The parfaits can be made ahead to allow for relaxed and easy entertaining. Wheat berries are a true whole grain. They are loaded with nutrients; add a slight crunch and subtle nutty flavour to the parfait.

Layers of luscious, creamy whipped ricotta, chewy wheat berries, slices of Ontario strawberries and maple syrup for sweetness, will have everyone endlessly dipping their spoons and clanking the bottom for more.

until wheat berries are tender, about 1-1/2 hours.

Drain any liquid and discard cinnamon sticks.

(Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to three days; tuck in cinnamon sticks to extend flavour.)

Meanwhile, in food processor purée ricotta until completely smooth. Add 1/2 cup (125 mL) maple syrup. Scrape vanilla seeds from pod, add

into cheese. Process until smooth. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to three days.)

In eight dessert or wine glasses, put two tbsp (25 mL) wheat berries, heaping 1/4 cup (50 mL) strawberries and heaping two tbsp (25 mL) whipped ricotta mixture. Repeat layering; sprinkle with almonds. Drizzle with remaining maple syrup.

Kingston/Frontenac Section B - Thursday, June 16, 2016 15

Fighting was a bit of a sport for the boys of the family “I’m not interested!” Mother almost yelled in Earl’s direction, as he framed the kitchen door crying his eyes out. His nose was spouting blood like a fountain, and covered his shirt, and I could see he also had scraped his knees.

He yelled louder, this time adding that Emerson had almost killed him. Again, Mother said:

“I’m not interested. And go out and sit on the back stoop. You’re getting blood all over the floor that Audrey just scrubbed.”

Mary Cook That’s how Mother dealt with fighting amongst the boys.

Come to her for sympathy or to have her interCOLUMNIST vene, and they were sent packing! editorial@theheritageemc.ca I was more interested in the fights than was Mother. The three brothers were all different sizes, and it had nothing to do with their ages. Emerson, the middle brother, was a whopper. At 12 years of age, stood just under six feet tall. Everett was somewhere in the middle, even MOSQUITOE S, though he was the oldest of the three. Earl was NOT WELCO the youngest, but growing fast, and it looked ME like he would soon be taller than Everett. So ON BOARD! they were a mixed lot.

But when it came to fighting, Emerson usually came out on top. I found out that a fight could start over the most simple disagreement. It often had to do with barn chores. Whose turn it was to milk Ethel, the Serving the Marine Industry since 1974... cow who wouldn’t stand still, and who you could count on kicking over the milk pail at Two Generations Later least once in every milking. Or whose turn it was to shovel the manure out the back door of the barn. A simple argument would spill over Boat Tops, Camper Backs, Tonneau Covers into a dragged out fight at the drop of a hat.

Then too, the boys fought over slingMooring Covers, Dodgers, Biminis and Enclosures shots. Slingshots were everywhere. They sat on the rail at the back door, and hung from the post at the gate. Always at the ready. There was always a squirrel or mouse to get rid 613 384 6316 | 800 268 4186 | Email: topshop@kos.net of, or empty tin cans to knock off the back 2053 Hwy 38, at Bur Brook Road. Kingston fence. Who owned what sling shot was the 2 km north of 401 (next to DM Boat Sales) cause of many a scrap. Finally, Everett started

QUINTE CANVAS MANUFACTURING

www.topshop.on.ca

scratching his initials on the ones he had made. But that didn’t work, because the three brothers had the same initials…and so the fight was on when it came to ownership.

The boys never went to Father to settle a fight. His response was completely different from Mother’s. While Mother sent the injured packing, Father would simply find jobs for the three boys to do, and they were never jobs they particularly enjoyed. Raking up the smoke house ashes was a hateful job, and the three brothers knew perfectly well if Father was asked to settle a fight, he almost always sent the complainer to the smoke house. It would take days to get the smell of smoldering hickory off the offender’s body! Even several dips in the Bonnechere failed to do the job. So going to Father to settle a fight was a last resort.

Although I often argued with Emerson, he knew better than to make body contact. Back then boys simply did not hit girls!!!

My sister Audrey and I never fought. I was too in awe of my much older sister, who I thought was just about the smartest girl in all of Renfrew County. But I was always amazed at Mother, who could be most sympathetic to our woes and concerns, but could simply turn her back on my brothers fighting. Audrey said it was because she never liked to take sides. Audrey said she could be defending the very person who started the fight in the first place. And Audrey said, that in itself, could start another donny-brook.

Advertorial

Local Widow Finds Help to Downsize Home

When Mr. W passed away suddenly, his widow continued downsizing the large family home they had shared for 25 years. By herself, enthusiasm faded.

Mrs. W called Rearrangements Relocation & Transition Services to help prepare her home for photography and marketing.

At the complimentary initial meeting, Mrs. W learned that Rearrangements will also book and supervise movers, unpack, and set up their senior clients’ new homes.

Mrs. W would have help from friends and family on moving day so she opted to use their additional services only for sorting and pre-packing excess belongings.

Packing is physically demanding. But, making the hundreds of decisions needed for downsizing is exhausting too.

16 Kingston/Frontenac Section B - Thursday, June 16, 2016

Mrs. W says Rearrangements’ “industrious attitude was the stimulus I needed at the time. It helped me to move on and prepare for my move.”

Their sorting system breaks the process into short manageable sessions, while still maintaining steady progress.

The move managers from Rearrangements set aside items for Mrs. W’s family garage sale and packed up items for donation according to her decisions. They boxed and labelled items for the eventual move. She recycled electronics and shredded papers as her ‘homework’.

Rearrangements managed extra cleaning, minor updates and painting projects to make Mrs. W’s house sparkle for showings. Finally, their stylists optimized use of the furniture, art and accessories already on hand to showcase the best selling features of her property.

The home sold quickly. Mrs. W was “completely satisfied” with services from Rearrangements. Her family was grateful too. Although they supported their Mother tremendously, they felt they could not have handled it all.

If you need help with downsizing, moving or preparing a home for sale, call Rearrangements Relocation and Transition Services at 613-817-2732.

New director breathes new life into Ninja Turtles franchise April O’Neil. Fox only has two looks, sultry and sultry yet questioning. It’s not a huge range but it works. Will Arnet also returns and provides some expert comic relief. Newcomers Tyler Perry, Sheamus, Gary Anthony Williams and Brad Garrett are great. Stephen Amell is a big standout. You have to love a guy who can take out ninjas with a hockey stick and a puck.

The best part is the Turtles. They’re a combination of guys wearing motion capture suits and CGI, but this time they are actual characters.

They nail who these heroes are supposed to be, and give them room to do more than just beat up ninjas.

I liked Out of the Shadows. I was struck though by how much cooler the real fight scenes were than the CGI fight scenes. I guess watching Stephen Amell actually fight ninjas is cooler than watching the animators animate. Still better than first one though.

Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature.

I know last week I said I’d try to see a romcom, but Hollywood had other ideas. Imagine my disappointment when I was faced with another comic book movie. Seriously it was almost too much to bear.

Surprisingly Teenage Mutant Turtles: Out of the Shadows is better than the first one.

I know that’s not saying much, but this one isn’t geographically challenged, and the plot makes sense.

Of course if you’re not into mutated turtles trained in the martial arts I’m not sure why you’re even in the theatre. On the other hand if you’re a fan then you’re going to love it.

Shredder (Brian Tee), with the help of scientific genius Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry), manages to escape police custody.

Shredder has made an alliance with an extra dimensional being called Commander Krang (Brad Garrett). Together they plan to open a doorway that will allow Krang’s warship, The Technodrone, into our dimension and take over the world.

It’s up to Michelangelo (Noel Fischer), Donatello (Jeremy Howard), Leonardo (Pete Ploszek), and COACH & TOURS Raphael (Alan Ritchson) to stop them. Foot Clan soldiers aren’t the only threat, Shredder has his own mutants – the giant rhinoceros and wart hog Rocksteady (Sheamus) and Bebop (Gary Anthony WilEXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO liams).

Digging up the past: How Confederates helped the cause of Confederation COLUMNIST

@markaidanbergin

Upper Canada Village is one of Canada’s national treasures. Always bringing new information on our history to light, they’re doing it again this year.

One of many highlights over the summer season will be a Civil War event. On August 6 and 7, Civil War re-enactors representing both Union and Confederate forces will bring the 19th century battles to Upper Canada Village. Military surgery and camp exhibits, a school of the soldier drill for children, and exciting re-enactments will bring the conflict to life in 21st century eastern Ontario.

Unintended consequences are always fascinating, if not necessarily beneficial in terms of original goals and strategies.

Such is the case with the forces played out in the U.S. Civil War. Many people north of the border look at the American Civil War—which was fought over, among other issues, slavery—as something completely disconnected from Canada. Slavery is an issue we consider ourselves able to view from a morally superior position.

Truth is, at an earlier time, Canada was fully supportive of slavery. Long before the arrival of Europeans, a number of aboriginal tribes kept slaves.

In the 17th century, Europeans brought their own slaves. After 1783, slavery increased significantly with the arrived of United Empire Loyalists from the US. Admittedly, slavery was never the huge industry in Canada that it was south of the border, but the reason isn’t one we can view from a moral high ground.

Our type of agriculture simply did not necessitate the large number of slaves as needed in the plantation system of the American South.

We did see the light sooner than our southern neighbors. In 1793, John Graves Simcoe effectively ended the possibility of the growth of slavery in Canada when, on a legal basis, he challenged the very existence of slavery.

Laws ending slavery in Canada were enacted in 1833.

Prior to the 1865 Amendment XIII to the Constitution of the United Sates, which abolished slavery, the underground railroad assisted tens of thousands of American slaves to achieve freedom by reaching Canada via a wellorganized and secretive network of safe houses.

As for the Civil War, one of its unintended consequences was to serve

This summer, in recognition of the involvement of 50,000 Canadians in the U.S. Civil War, Upper Canada Village will host a Civil War re-enactment weekend. the Civil War, it was a grand adventure, a way to leave behind a simple farm life.

None imagined how long the conflict would rage. Nor did they anticipate that the conflict would leave 750,000 soldiers dead and another 650,000 wounded. To put that in perspective, that is more American deaths than the wars in Iraq/Afghanistan, the War of 1812, the Revolutionary War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the First World War, and the Second World War combined.

It’s a staggering number.

as a catalysts for the creation of Canada.

Estimates of the number of Canadians who fought in the American Civil War range from 35,000 to 55,000, with 50,000 being agreed on most often.

There could be monetary reasons for fighting. For example, those who had the money and did not want to serve in the military could hire someone as a substitute. A Canadian could earn $400 (that’s about $12,000 in 2016 value) or more for serving.

But for many Canadians, the dominant reason was a willingness to fight to uphold their belief that slavery in any form was wrong. This explains why most Canadians involved in the American Civil War fought for the Union rather than the Confederacy.

However, French Canadians who had moved to New Orleans, tended to fight for the South to help defend their new home.

Confederates had bases in Canada, from which they waged war against the Union side. This certainly did not help cross-border relations of the era.

In addition, the American philosophy of Manifest Destiny put great stresses on international relations. Manifest destiny was the belief that it was part of God’s providence that the United States would expand across North America, first to the west and then to the north.

Digging up the past: How Confederates helped the cause of Confederation Continued from page 21

Some Canadians involved in the American Civil War played significant roles. Canadian-born Edward Doherty not only fought on the Union side, in 1865 he led the military unit that captured John Wilkes Booth after he had assassinated President Abraham Lincoln. Doherty remained in the U.S. Military following the Civil War and is buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia not far the American capital city.

A Canadian physician, Dr. Anderson Ruffin Abbott, Canada’s first black surgeon, served as a surgeon in the Union Army between 1863 and 1865.

Abbott’s parents had fled the racist world of Alabama and settled in Toronto, where Dr. Abbott was born in 1837.

According to Andre Mayer of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, following the assassination of President

Abraham Lincoln, Mary Todd Lincoln, the president’s widow, presented Dr. Abbott with the shawl that Lincoln wore to his 1861 inauguration.

If you think the fictitious Corporal Max Klinger of M.A.S.H. fame was the first cross-dresser in the American Army, think again. A Canadian holds that honor from more than a century earlier.

Sixteen-year-old Sarah Emma Edmonds left her abusive home in New Brunswick in 1857 to avoid enduring yet another insult, an arranged marriage. She fled to the United States.

Terrified of being found out, she disguised herself as a man and took the name Franklin Thompson.

In 1861, upon the outbreak of the Civil War, she—as Franklin Thompson—enlisted in the 2nd Michigan Infantry. In addition to firing a rifle, she served as a courier as well as working in medical sites nursing wounded sol-

diers.

When she became ill with malaria she feared being discovered as female and abandoned her unit. She was charged with desertion but years later, in 1884, was cleared of the charges and granted a government pension.

In Blood and Daring: How Canada Fought the American Civil War and Forged a Nation, Canadian author John Boyko examined the important roles Canada played during the war.

For a start, we learn it wasn›t long after Lincoln›s assassination that it was revealed that John Wilkes Booth had planned the assassination from outside the United States, in Montreal, which had served as a hotbed for Confederate Army activities. After this disclosure, the border between the US and British North America was sealed. Questions about Canada’s involvement permeated the proceedings during trials of conspirators. Most of the conspira-

tors, aside from Booth, were captured and tried. When he was found, Booth refused to surrender and was shot and killed.

More than 100 years before the Vietnam conflict escalated into the Vietnam War, and Americans by the thousands headed to Canada to avoid participating in American military action, it is estimated that about 12,000 American citizens left the United States as draft dodgers during the U.S. Civil War. Boyko argues that the American Civil War helped catalyze Canada’s Confederation of 1867. A most distasteful aspect of Canadian history is the fact that Confederate forces had bases in Canada, primarily in Montreal, but also in Toronto. From those settings, they launched cross-border raids against Union forces. These attacks led to ongoing calls for Union troops to retaliate against Canada.

In fact, following the Civil War, further international hostilities occurred with Fenian raids into Canada. Combined, the Civil War and Fenian raids, helped Sir John A. Macdonald and his allies to rally the political will to form the Confederation that became known as Canada.

This summer, the folks at Upper Canada Village will be providing an opportunity to experience life in the Civil War era. They’ll bring the living history of this conflict to the grounds of UCV. Next week will feature a look at everything that’s coming up at Upper Canada Village during this season.

Help plants survive sizzling summer heat

8 Kingston Homefinder.ca - Thursday, June 16, 2016

Many people consider summer the most enjoyable time of year, as the summer sun and warm breezes make the season perfect for rest and relaxation. But the months of June, July and August, which are often characterized by rising temperatures and stifling humidity, can be tough to endure as well.

When summer heat becomes especially uncomfortable, humans can simply head indoors and beat the heat in air conditioned buildings and homes. Plant life is not so lucky, and homeowners may need to take steps to help the plant life on their properties survive the summer heat.

• Monitor soil moisture. Soil moisture, or a lack thereof, can help homeowners determine if their plants are struggling to survive the heat. To check soil moisture levels, use a ruler or even your finger, sticking either two inches into the ground where you suspect the soil is drying out. If the soil is damp two inches below the surface, then your plants are likely retaining enough moisture to withstand the heat. If the soil is dry two inches below, then you may want to give the soil a deep soak.

• Keep an eye on container gardens.

Containers may have an especially difficult time staying moist in the summer heat. That’s particularly true for containers that sit in direct sunlight. Water container gardens daily during summer heat waves, being sure to adhere to any

local water restrictions.

• Lay down mulch. Mulch helps insulate and protect soil during summer, when soil can quickly dry out. When applied correctly (ideally before summer temperatures get too hot), mulch helps the soil conserve moisture and prevents weed growth. Weeds can rob soil of the water it needs to promote strong root systems, which can help plants get the nutrients they need to withstand summer heat. Mulched soils also do not experience the fluctuations in temperature that non-mulched soils can experience during summer heat waves, helping plants to grow evenly.

• Move plants when possible. Plant location can affect their chances of surviving summer heat. Driveways lined with flowers or other plants may look nice, but driveways exposed to the sun can radiate heat at temperatures that exceed the temperatures noted on the thermometer. If possible, move plants to locations on your property that are less exposed to the heat and/or less likely to be affected by the heat. Move container plants beneath trees on hot days, and consider summer heat waves before planting new flower beds.

Summer heat can be especially harmful to plant life. But homeowners can employ various strategies to protect the plant life on their properties when temperatures rise during the dog days of summer.

Tips for safe home grilling Millions of grilling enthusiasts take to their backyards each year to cook delicious foods over an open flame. Grilling is embedded in the history of many cultures, and to this day many people feel nothing beats the savory flavor characteristic of grilled meats, poultry, seafood, and vegetables.

Although many people safely enjoy outdoor barbecues every day, accidents can happen. According to the U.S. Fire Administration, roughly 6,000 grill fires take place on residential property every year in the United States alone. Many grilling accidents can be prevented with some safety precautions and a little common sense.

When grilling, place the grill in a safe location. Grills should be at least 10 feet away from the house when they are in use. Also, keep the grill away from wooden overhangs or other structures attached to the house, such as garages and porches.

Before using a gas grill, inspect it to make sure there are no gas leaks. Ensure hoses are properly connected and that the grill looks in good repair.

Use propane and charcoal grills outdoors only.

Never bring such grills into your house, even if it seems like there is ample ventilation. Potentially

fatal carbon monoxide can build up quickly.

Keep children and pets away from the grill area. Grills can be knocked over easily, and kids and pets may burn themselves if they bump into a hot grill.

Clean the grill regularly. Grease and fat buildup forms in the tray below the grill and can be quite flammable. By brushing off the grates after each use and periodically removing food and grease buildup, you can prevent flare-ups that may ignite the grill.

Always tend the grill while cooking. Walking away for even a minute may lead to accidents.

Store unused propane tanks upright at all times to prevent leakage. Keep them outdoors and beyond the reach of children. Never smoke near propane cylinders and never move a lit grill.

Keep a fire extinguisher handy in the event of a flare-up. A hose may not prove effective on a grease fire.

It’s also important to emphasize food safety when grilling. Invest in a food thermometer so you can test the internal temperature of foods and prevent foodborne illnesses.

Grilling is a great and flavorful way to cook.

But safety must remain a priority when grilling.

Your next home could be just a click away...
