City gives broom building another chance By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage News – After many delegations, debates and questions, Kingston City Council voted to approve the motion to reconsider their April decision regarding the Bailey Broom factory at a special council meeting on June 30. The vote to reconsider passed 8-2 with councillors Berg and Paterson in opposition and councillors Reitzel, George and Scott absent. The room was near capacity, with many concerned citizens awaiting the final decision and council heard from a number of delegates including Kingston Friends of the Inner Harbour member Mary Farrar, who outlined numerous reasons to preserve the industrial factory. “This area is the new industrial heritage district in the north of Kingston,” said Farrar, who listed a number of heritage sites in Kingston that have not been preserved and are now lost. “People want to see heritage, they don’t want to see a picture of it. Heritage differentiates cities from other locations. We don’t take tourists to the Invista Centre, we take tourists to see our heritage structures.” Several other community memThousands of Kingstonians came downtown on Tuesday, July 1 to celebrate Canada Day with the annual bers joined Farrar during her delRed and White parade down Princess Street.

from council about the area. Living Rooms owner John Sinclair spoke of the unique nature of the area and why it was attractive to him, adding that similar areas in other cities, like the distillery district in Toronto, have been successfully converted into businesses. The area is also home to numerous office buildings including many in the former National Grocers Building owned by Ric Barr. During his own delegation, Barr outlined why the broom building is vital to the area, prompting Mayor Gerretsen to ask him if he would be willing to take on the broom building if given the opportunity. “I would definitely be interested in looking at ownership of that building,” said Barr. “From two weeks ago until now, that is a very fast question, but I would be very interested.” The answer was an important one for Gerretsen, who voiced his concern for the taxpayers if the city chose to take on the building themselves and not demolish it. These concerns were also echoed by councilors Berg, Paterson and Hector. “That’s where the challenge is,” said Coun. Hector. “I hear the voice of the people and I also understand what we put on the taxpayer every year and that is my dilemma.” Continued on page 5

Kingston Heritage – Despite strong objections from the neighbours, the city is moving ahead with plans to allow Homestead Land Holdings to construct two hirise apartments along Highway 15. But not both at once. A June 19 staff report to the planning committee recommended only one of the 178-unit buildings at 725-745 Highway 15 should be allowed to proceed at this time. The fate of the second 178-unit building will hinge on future widening improvements to Highway 15, between Highway 2 and Gore Road. Pittsburgh district councillor Brian Reitzel agrees the twin, 14-storey buildings would generate too much traffic. “That’s pretty intense,� he said. “I don’t know how we’re going to handle the extra traffic when we’ve done nothing to expand Highway 15.� City officials recognize that increased residential development in the area of Highway 15 and Barrett Court will require the former provincial highway to be widened sooner rather than later. They say an environmental assessment to study widening the route from two to four lanes could begin as early as next year, although a date and budget for the actual road construction work have not been finalized. Homestead has already constructed one 14-storey apartment building on

the rear of the former Highland Motel property, just south of LaSalle Secondary School, and is proposing to add two more buildings that are much closer to the highway. The application involves changing the site zoning from commercial to residential uses. In recommending the project, city planners say area roads can handle increased traffic from one of the proposed buildings, but construction of the second building will have to wait. The project has attracted numerous letters of objection, mostly from residents of the nearby Deerfield and Barriefield condominiums on Barrett Court. Many of their concerns relate to the increase in traffic congestion, loss of window views and privacy, scale and massing of the two new buildings, and the urgent need for the city to build a third bridge crossing over the Cataraqui River. “The height and massing of the proposed development is out of proportion to the immediately adjacent Deerfield and Barriefield condominiums on Highway 15,� said Hugh Carmichael, president of the Deerfield condo owners group. He also noted the 14 storey apartments will tower over the long-established 9-storey condos next door. “In fact there is no other building this massive on Highway 15. The project is clearly incompatible with the Highway 15 streetscape.� Carmichael also says views of the two buildings would be “conspicuous

Another commercial plaza proposed for Midland Avenue By Bill Hutchins Reporter

R0012789514

Kingston Heritage – The City of Kingston has tried to control commercial creep along Gardiners Road, but the hard-line policy appears to be now pushing more development and traffic onto nearby Midland Avenue. The busy two-lane road, which has seen several stores pop up in recent years, is now poised to get a large retail/office-style development on the northwest corner of Midland Avenue and Cataraqui Woods Drive. A developer has unveiled plans to construct a commercial plaza with six standalone one-storey buildings, medical offices, a financial institution with drive-thru, a gas station and convenience store, two retail-commercial stores and a drive-thru restaurant. The site would have 212 parking spaces with two access points off Midland Avenue and one off Cataraqui Woods Drive. “It’s definitely going to add to the traffic on Midland, but what we have to do is identify the uses so that we know what kind of traffic will be generated,” said Loyalist-Cataraqui district councillor Kevin George. The developer, Kingston Midland and Cataraqui Corporation, has not revealed the names of the businesses that are planned for the vacant 1.9 hectare (4.8 acre) property at 1233 Midland Avenue. The company is seeking rezoning approvals to permit the commercial development. Coun. George says area residents don’t

have a problem with the office-style uses, but they are concerned about traffic that will be generated by some of the other proposed buildings. “I think the biggest concern most residents locally have at this time is the potential for a service station,” he explained, adding the area already has ample gas stations. An urban design and planning justification study prepared by Weston Consulting for the developer acknowledges the growth of large commercial retailers along Midland Avenue such as Loblaws and WalMart, plus a range of smaller retail outlets including the LCBO and The Beer Store. However, the study points out that Midland Avenue is within a designated commercial district that already permits uses such as hotels, gas bars, restaurants, garden centres and car dealerships. The proposed commercial buildings have been arranged to accommodate drivethru traffic and provide sufficient buffering for the nearby houses, the developer said. The commercial plaza will cause “relatively high delays” for traffic exiting from the plaza, but nearby lights should create sufficient gaps, the study noted. “Ultimately the surrounding road network can accommodate the traffic resulting from the proposed development.” Coun. George says the development, if it gets the green light from politicians, could spur the need for widening the two lane road. “Midland has the ability for road width if we wanted to do some widening, and obviously that consideration will have

to be taken by the planning committee when it comes to the design of this commercial outlet.” The northerly extension of Bayridge Drive to Creekford Road later this year and the installation of speed humps on Cataraqui Woods Drive should help remove traffic flows in the fast-growing west end area, he added. Following a public meeting June 19, city planners will now work on a recommendation to take to a future planning committee meeting. Councillors say they will be pushing for more details about the businesses. “It is recognized that specific tenants for certain buildings are unknown and this has been considered,” the development study added.

in opposition. There are still many unanswered questions when it comes to the fate of the Bailey Broom building and it is possible that it may still be demolished, but for now it has been given a second chance. Deputy Mayor Neill commented near the end of the meeting that the decision in April really was a failing on his part and on council’s part. “I am disappointed in myself and in council for not having all of the information that we should have when we made our decision,” said Neill. “Heritage is throughout the city and we have very little industrial heritage left within the city and quite frankly I think this is our opportunity to get it right.”

Kingston Heritage – Kingston Transit will be attracting more riders this fall, but won’t make any extra money from it. The city is expanding a two-year pilot program to provide complimentary bus passes to high school students between Grades 9 and 11. “I recognize this will cost the city some money,” said Mayor Mark Gerretsen. Staff had initially proposed continuing free transit passes for Grades 9 and 10 students for the 2014-2015 school year with no limitation on the time of day or days of the week. But council decided to take it further by including all Grade 11 students from both the public and Catholic schools in the program as well. “I think it’s the right thing to do,” said the mayor, whose June 17 motion to provide free unlimited bus passes for most high school students was approved unanimously. Ideally, councillors say they’d like to provide free bus rides to all high school students but many indicated the program must be reviewed every year. Coun. Jim Neill, a retired teacher, says he knows first-hand that current options for student transportation mean some students cannot participate in extra-curricular activities such as sports, drama and music programs. “Their opportunities are limited.” However, councillors say the use of free public transit will make it much easier for many of them to get to and from school without relying on a school bus or a ride from their parents. Mayor Gerretsen says there is a method behind the city’s generosity: to encourage a new generation of “permanent paying customers” to ride Kingston Transit once their school years are over. He added: “This is about changing the culture of our transit system.” Find Us On However, the potential for longterm gain will come with short-term pain for Kingston Transit’s cash box.

R0012791133

Transit officials aren’t sure how much revenue will be lost as more teens get complimentary transit instead of buying a youth pass. But they do know the program, launched in 2012 for Grade 9s and expanded to Grade 10s in 2013, is successfully attracting more young riders. More than 1,500 passes were issued to eligible students during the first two years of the program, and they took more than 63,000 trips, according to Sheila Kidd, the city’s transportation director. “There is a strong indication that the program is successful in encouraging Grade 9 and 10 students to use the public transit system.” It’s become so cool to take the bus to school that Kingston Transit is struggling to meet the demand. Most students take the bus between 7 and 9 a.m. and 2 and 4 p.m., which is putting an added strain on rush hour routes that are already at or near capacity, she added. The city received $30,000 a year from both the Limestone District School Board and the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board to help Kingston Transit offset some its bus fare revenue losses. The city is asking both boards to contribute an additional $15,000 subsidy in order to provide free bus rides to Grade 11 students. Mayor Gerretsen says school boards also have an opportunity to save money, noting more students riding public transit should put less strain on school bus operations. “There’s an $80,000 saving to take one yellow bus off the road,” he claimed.

By Bill Hutchins

The other concern was that of liability in terms of the actual sale of the building and property, but City solicitor Hal Linscott explained that while the deal with Rosen Energy Group had been signed by the clerk and mayor, the sale would not be completed until Aug. 15 and the current owners were open to changes. After the motion to reconsider was approved, several amendments were made including conditions that after the sale is completed a heritage assessment will be done and that the building will be ‘severed for the intent of sale’ by the end of 2016. The amendments passed by a vote of 9-1 with only Berg

Kingston Heritage – Canada Post is moving ahead with plans to stop door-to-door urban residential mail delivery in Kingston, opting instead for community mailboxes. “It is expected the community mailbox conversion will begin in Kingston in the next 12 months,” according to a Canada Post information report. Mayor Mark Gerretsen was recently briefed on the conversion plans by a delegation from the post office, noting the vast majority of direct residential mailing will be eliminated. “They weren’t coming here to ask me what I thought of it. They were coming here to tell me what they’re doing.” He added: “They want to start within a year, and I believe it takes eight to 12 months to complete the conversion.” One out of three Canadian households still receives direct mail delivery. That means an estimated five million addresses will lose their door-to-door service as part of Canada Post’s five year conversion plan to find cost savings and efficiencies. However, there will be no change to mail that’s delivered in the lobbies of apartments, condos or seniors’ residences, or service to rural mailboxes. Business mail in ‘commercial corridors’ and companies that receive large volumes of mail will also continue to get doorstep delivery. But Kingston’s established neighbourhoods will likely start seeing community mailboxes sprout up in 2015 and 2016.

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.

Lakeside district councillor Dorothy Hector is worried about the impact of the community mailbox conversion on seniors and those with mobility issues. “While some seniors can walk long distances, an awful lot of seniors live alone and are struggling to stay in their homes and have no mobility. Who’s going to get the mail for them?” She added: “It’s a problem for the neighbourhoods. It’s a problem for the community.” But Kingston isn’t alone. “Municipalities across the country are quite upset. However, all new subdivisions already have these new boxes,” said Coun. Hector, the city’s representative on the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM). She also says the placement of community mailboxes on municipal property in older subdivisions could be “problematic” because the roads and public easements were not designed to handle residents who will drive and park at the mailbox locations. She says Canada Post has not yet approached the city to outline exact locations for the group mailboxes. “I’m hoping we’ll have some public input as to where these things go.” Canada Post officials says local councils will be briefed on the conversion plans as more information is available, and promises community consultation “will be forthcoming.” The mayor says the changing service is “unfortunate” but he acknowledges Canada Post is struggling to revamp its business model in the face of declining mail delivery volumes and COACH & TOURS revenues. “It’s not a profitable business anymore and I think we all know why.” In documents provided to the city, the EXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO post office says it has EXCELLENCE lost $1.2 billion in revenues due to the Orillia Island Princess Cruise & Vegas Knights - Wed, Aug 6/14 Wegman’s LPGA Tournament - August 14-15/14 shift from paper to Nascar Pure Michigan 400 - August 15-18/14 digital mail between Toronto Blue Jays vs NY Yankees - Sunday, Aug 31/14 2006 and 2013.

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.

Partners in Innovation is an “Astroturf” group – a fake grassroots group - claiming to represent farmers but acting as a mouthpiece for the corporate seed industry -- part of an orchestrated PR campaign to counter anticipated opposition to the federal government’s agenda to implement UPOV ’91 (1991 act proposed by the International Convention for the Protection of New Plant Varieties). Partners in Innovation first appeared on the public stage on December 9, 2013 – the same day that Bill C-18 was introduced in the House of Commons. The Partners’ twelve member organizations endorsed the legislation even before its text became public. Although they claimed to represent tens of thousands of

farmers, leaders of member organizations proclaimed their support for the Bill before their members had time to read, much less debate and make an informed decision about it. Membership in many of the groups that make up Partners in Innovation is not voluntary. Some of the farm groups are funded through legislated check-offs. Farmers have to provide funding regardless of their views about farm policy. How these organizations develop their policies is a mystery to many. A review of where members of Partners in Innovation obtain funding suggests that the federal government and seed industry corporations have considerable influence over the organizations. Two Partners in Innovation groups – the Canadian Seed Trade Association (CTSA) and Cereals Canada – are dominated by global seed corporations and grain traders. The board of CSTA includes representation from BASF Canada Inc., Bayer CropScience, Hyland Seeds (DowAgro Sciences), Monsanto Canada, Pioneer Hi-Bred Ltd. (DuPont), Richardson International, and Syngenta Canada. The board of Cereals Canada includes representation from Dow AgroSciences, Cargill Canada, Bayer CropScience Inc., Syngenta Canada, Richardson International and Viterra, as well as representatives from the Alberta Wheat Commission and Grain Farmers of Ontario, which are both members of Partners in Innovation. There is also considerable overlap between Grain Growers of Canada (GGC) and Partners in Innovation. Six of 16 Partners have board representation on GGC: the Alberta Barley Commission, Alberta Wheat Commission,

Atlantic Grains Council, British Columbia Grain Producers Association, Manitoba Pulse Growers Association, and Prairie Oat Growers Association. In 2012, Syngenta sponsored a two-day course on advocacy and political lobbying for the GGC Board. Syngenta is also named as a “corporate leader” of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, and provides significant funding to the Horticulture Council of Canada, Grain Farmers of Ontario and the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association. Syngenta has much to gain from Bill C-18. Its global strategic plan is to expand its business in cereals breeding. The company will benefit from the recent decision by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) to stop funding most of Canada’s public cereals breeding programs and to sell off our germplasm. C-18 would give Syngenta access to the Canadian wheat and barley breeding sector and allow it to charge royalties on varieties bred using the very germplasm developed by the public sector and paid for by Canadians. C-18 would also allow Syngenta to bypass breeding in Canada for Canadian growing conditions, enabling the company to import varieties developed in other countries and charge royalties to Canadian farmers for their use. Other seed industry giants – BASF, Bayer, Dow AgroSciences, DuPont and Monsanto – also provide funding and sponsorship dollars to these members of the Partners: the Canadian Federation of Agri-

ing funds are generated through membership fees. The NFU is the only voluntary membership national farm organization. The diversity of NFU membership includes a wide range of producers from commodity grain farmers to dairy farmers to small market gardeners, organic and conventional, from across the country. Only farmers are eligible to be full members with a vote. The organization’s policy positions are developed through a democratic grassroots process whereby resolutions are debated at annual conventions and adopted by majority vote of delegates. All officers are elected from among the membership. The NFU’s decision-making process is transparent, our members’ interests are always foremost and our collective voice is unfettered. The NFU carefully analyzed the proposed Bill C-18 and alerted farmers and the wider public to its serious negative implications. People have responded appropriately – by spreading the word and building resistance. Clearly, the corporate seed lobby is alarmed. I plan to write again shortly with more information on UPOV and the seed issues now that your readers have a broader perspective on some of the players in this debate.

culture, the Canadian Horticultural Council, the Federation des Producteurs de Cultures Commerciales du Québec, Grain Farmers of Ontario and the Manitoba Pulse Growers Association. Some Partners receive funding from AAFC. Several have obtained grants through the federal Growing Forward and Growing Forward 2 programs. As Manitoba Co-operator editor John Morriss noted in his editorial, Keeping the farm organizations in line, groups increasingly appear to be obligated to provide public relations support for the government in return for funding. “If [a given organization] wants to get AAFC to kick in some matching money (though less than it spent before), it has to play ball, including saying nice things in the government press release.” Sadly, member groups of Partners in Innovation that should be looking out for the broader interests of Canadian farmers have apparently accepted the government’s directive that “there is no alternative”. Instead of pushing back and demanding that public funding of plant breeding be restored, they have acquiesced. In contrast, the National Farmers Union does not seeking corporate or government funding for operations. The NFU’s operat-

EDITORIAL Summer storms are not my friends Mandy Marciniak

Reporter

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage Editorial - I enjoy summer‌ maybe not as much as some people, but I do like summer. My favorite season is fall, but summer definitely follows as a close second. The one thing I don’t like about summer is thunderstorms. For as long as I can remember thunderstorms have not been my cup of tea. When I was really young, I hated them with a passion. I remember crying during storms and my parents trying to calm me whenever they occurred. My mom even told me once that thunderstorms were just the Care Bears (yes, the cartoon bears that live in the clouds) bowling up in the sky. She said that the thunder was them rolling the balls down the lane and when they got a strike the lightning hit to celebrate (both of my parents bowled in recreational leagues when I was younger so maybe that is where the idea came from). When I was seven or eight I experienced a really bad storm. My grandmother used to winter in Florida, like so many Canadian seniors, and we’d go visit her for two weeks every April. During one particular visit we

were shopping in a mall, a typical past time when I was with my grandmother, and we started to hear heavy thumping on the roof. My mother guessed that it was just construction or repairs and we continued to shop. When the time came to leave the mall we looked outside in horror. It was the middle of the afternoon and it looked like it was midnight outside. A storm had moved in while we were shopping and we rushed to the car to get home as fast as we could. While my mother drove I remember screaming into my grandmother’s lap as the rain pounded against the windows and the lightning and thunder continued. At one point, my grandmother pointed to what she thought was a funnel cloud and I don’t really remember what my reaction was. Luckily, we got home okay and nothing happened but I will always remember that storm as being one of the worst I have ever experienced. My fear of thunderstorms continued until I became an adult. For a period of time in my adult life I actually enjoyed watching storms and seeing the different lightning bolts and hearing the thunder – until last summer. In late July last year we experienced a terrible thunderstorm at the cottage. All of Kingston and the surrounding areas experienced the storm and thousands of people were without power, but in our area there was actually a waterspout (a tornado that touches down on water instead of land) that

Kanata Kourier-Standard Letter to the editor Kanata Kourier-Standard

touched down on our lake. The day was pretty typical in terms of summer weather. In fact, I was down on the dock tanning for most of the afternoon because there was a really nice breeze. I went inside when the sky started to darken the storm arrived rather abruptly. Korey and I barely got the patio umbrella and chairs secured before trees started falling. The wind was taking water from the lake and throwing it against the windows and everywhere we looked tops of trees were falling. The wind was so powerful that it uprooted one of the trees on the shoreline near the cottage and in the process uprooted part of the dock. I’ve never experienced a storm like that before and it was incredibly frightening to watch it happen. In the days that followed the uprooted tree had to be removed and Korey’s family came out to the cottage to help us deal with the rest of the debris. I know the situation wasn’t deadly but it sure was scary. Now, whenever there are severe thunderstorm warnings in our area I get a bit nervous. There seems to be quite a few tornado warnings this year and sometimes the weather conditions out at the lake remind me of that day last year. I know that it is unlikely that I will experience something like that storm again, but that certainly doesn’t make me like storms. I guess all I can do is be cautious and hope that they simply pass us by.

Tenth Annual Event Achieves Outstanding Results Arnprior Chronicle-Guide Dear editor,

year the Boatilla had raised over $108.000 and sent 54 kids to camp. About 150 residents and 26 boats were involved in the two hour event which started with a boat tour of the south branch of Buck Lake and ended with a community BBQ and celebration at Hidden Valley Camp Grounds. The check presentation was the highlight of the afternoon. As usual, the Treasurer of the Boatilla Liz Graham-Trudel kept everyone in suspense as to how much was raised to send physically challenged kids and youth to Easer Seals camp Merrywood. “It’s amazing how the local and extended communities of Buck Lake come together for a common goal� she noted. “We have people, groups and businesses from Verona, Sydenham, Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount Glenburnie, Belleville, Lancaster, Toronmmount@perfprint.ca

On Saturday 28 June Buck Lakers gathered for the tenth time in as many years on the south branch of Buck Lake to realize the culmination of a 2 month fund raising program to send physically challenge kids and youth to Easter Seals Camp Merrywood on the Big Rideau. “It’s an annual event that has grown continually over the years and each year the community involvement and commitment has become broader and deeper� noted long time Buck Lake resident Saundra Rider. “Ten years ago we started off small with a desire to raise enough money to send one kid to Easter Seals camp-which we did.

In Our Opinion

Remembering the First World War Heritage Editorial - One hundred years ago, the sequence of events that brought about what modern commentators would dub ‘the war to end all wars’ began to lurch toward its bloody conclusion. Hindsight proves the commentators overly optimistic; however, it’s worth remembering this was the war that would see the introduction of chemical warfare to the battlefield, in addition to the bombing and shelling of civilian targets. The war would go on to claim the lives of approximately 17 million people, and wound almost twice as many. To the survivors of a broken Europe, it must have felt like Armageddon. The hundredth anniversary of the First World War provides governments around the world with the unique opportunity to remember the war and its fallen. But the question remains: How? The First World War began with the suicide-assassination of a member of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy at the hands of a Serbian terrorist organization. European heads of state then fell into a series of ill-advised treaties and alliances that assured each other’s mutual destruction. Why? In general, historians agree that the colonial powers, having stretched their tentacles all the way around the globe in their quest for power, riches and resources, simply ran out of room, and had to turn the battle on each other if further advantage was to be gained. None were immune from these expansionist ambitions. Trying to apportion blame to each individual actor is a fool’s errand when you realize that only naked colonialism and nationalism lay at the end of a tangled web of causality.           Therefore, we feel that there are two essential lessons to draw here. The first is that we should not be so fast in our calls to arms when provoked. This was Austria-Hungary’s first reaction. An interconnected world, however, ensured that any military response would be met by force. As we have painfully learned over the years, military solutions generally only lead to more violence. The second lesson is that nationalism is a cancer that infects the minds or normally right thinking people with poisonous attitudes of hatred, narcissism and xenophobia. Both sides of the battle were equally guilty of trumpeting the worthiness of their respective empires to the detriment of their neighbours’. What we actually require is the reverse – a recognition that we are stronger when we are united in the cause of mutual peace and prosperity. Remembering our countrymen and women’s sacrifices in this way doesn’t do them any disservice. In fact, it does the opposite. It humanizes them; it makes them more relatable; it turns them into ordinary people who got caught up in history’s grand forces and played an important part of an epic story. Almost a century ago, a weary and frustrated war surgeon by the name of John McCrae, recently bereaved by the death of a close friend on the battlefield, bade us to “take up our quarrel with the foe.â€? But maybe, just maybe, the time has finally come to look inward for real answers. which would permit us to sponsor 10 kids at Camp Merrywood. ‘10 in10’ was our motto for this year and we did it by the skin of our pants raising $25,014â€? noted Duncan Sinclair Buck Lake resident and organizer. “It was a substantial challenge and everyone came through substantiallyâ€?.

In with bike lanes, out with parking on Brock and Johnson Streets Reporter

Kingston Heritage – For cyclists, it’s a major step in the right direction, but it’s unseen how some drivers will respond. Starting July 10,

Brock and Johnson Streets will have 144 fewer parking spaces. “We’re looking forward to adding dedicated bike lanes to Brock and Johnson Streets,” said the City of Kingston’s director of engineering, Mark Van Buren.

The decision to move forward on the project was made last year. The parking spaces from Sir John A. Macdonald Blvd. to Division Street on both roads will be replaced with no parking signs. After a small amount of road work, the City will

On-street parking will be removed from this section of Brock Street July 10.

Through projects like this and the Kingston Transit expansion, Van Buren is hopeful residents will start to change commuting habits and that these initiatives will get more people out of their cars and either onto the bus or their bikes. “We’re hopeful that people are going to find other modes of travel, or make other accommodations for their parking needs,” says Van Buren. The city has installed illuminated signage of the upcoming work. On July 10, the on street parking will no longer be available, and parking signage will be removed. Van Buren says there is some minor road work to be done, but nothing major will be done at this time. Once the parking is gone, the paint truck will start the work of adding all new lines to the road, as well as the new signage indicating the bikes lanes. That work should wrap up the last week of July, giving the city its newest bike lanes open and ready for use Aug. 1.

repaint the road to include a half metre paint strip to separate drivers from cyclists. The added width should give some added protection to riders. “The half metre paint should give a more defined line to the bike lanes, and it offers a little more separation between cars and bikes on the road,” Van Buren explains. Van Buren compares this project to that of the added bikes lanes on the previous section of Johnson Street as well as Queen Mary Road. While there was some resistance to losing on-street parking, he says if you tried to remove them now there would be a much greater resistance. For this change, it’s a matter of communication. “The city has made some efforts there to try to get the word out to get as much information out to the residents along Brock and Johnson Streets, also to people that commute and use those streets for parking, trying to encourage other modes in travel.”

DAYTRIPPER

Thousands Islands Playhouse goes Wilde By Mark Bergin Columnist

“I am so clever that sometimes I don’t understand a single word of what I am saying.� —Oscar Wilde. Heritage Lifestyle – While The Importance of Being Earnest enjoyed a successful run on stage in London, Irish playwright Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) wasted away in

prison, punished with hard labor, convicted for gross indecency with men. There’s nothing witty about suffering in prison. After prison, the literary genius’ writing took a drastic turn away from his pleasure principle philosophy. Jail will do that to a person. Wilde never recovered from his penal experience. After serving his time, Wilde moved to Paris, never to return to Ireland or England. Sadly, he died destitute at the age of 46.

&##* ! %" % ' !% " % $

Having begun this column with a Wilde quote, I think it fitting to mention the writer’s own opinion of spewing the words of others: “Quotation is a serviceable substitute for wit.� I refrain from calling Wilde a playwright, although his theatrical works are brilliant. According to British essayist and playwright St. John Hankin (1869 - 1909) writing in his The Collected Works of Oscar Wilde essay: “The fact is, Wilde despised the theatre. He was a born dramatist in the sense that he was naturally

--, + # ( # ) ' %"#

equipped with certain very valuable gifts for writing for the stage. But he was not a dramatist from conviction in the sense that Ibsen was or that Mr. Shaw is....He wrote plays frankly for the market and because playwrighting was lucrative.� Wilde would have preferred to indulge himself in poetry and witty banter, while living a life of luxury. One of Wilde’s most remembered works, The Importance of being Earnest, is his most brilliant. In typical literary voice, Wilde called the play “a trivial comedy for serious people.�

“The Importance of Being Earnest is written with conviction, in a sense,� wrote Hankin. “That is to say, it is the expression of the author’s own temperament and his attitude towards life, not an insincere re-statement of conventional theatrical ideas. But the Importance of Being Earnest is only a joke, though an amazingly brilliant one, and Wilde seems to have looked upon it with the same amused contempt with which he looked on its predecessors. Perhaps he did not realise [sic] how good it was.� Or, perhaps, in a Groucho Marx-style self mockery, Wilde simply held the view: “I don’t want to belong to any club that will accept people like me as a member.� Wilde and Marx held remarkably similar world views. Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest opened at the St. James Theatre in London, England on Valentine’s Day, 1895, a significant choice of opening day, considering the subject matter. The hit production satires such institutions as marriage, and just about every other Victorian Era convention. It kicks Victorian social customs in the shins. One of the heavier criticisms of the play was that it did not deal with deep social issues. Critics must have worn blinders to fact that the play itself mocked the triviality of social customs. Sadly, following Wilde’s being outed, he was considered a person of disgrace. I’m sure Wilde would love the fact that musicals like Kinky Boots and plays like Mothers and Sons, each exploring gay worlds, are now successful hits in London and New York. You can enjoy a production of The Importance of Being Earnest at the Thousand Islands Playhouse from July 25 to August 23. On the surface, the play looks like a bunch of fluff, but only in the way that Christopher Durang’s works look fluffy. Underlying the superficial humdrum of polite society that forms the backdrop of The Importance of Being Earnest lies a wit unequalled in theatre. In an era that produced such greatness as Henrik Ibsen, along came Wilde, placing importance in nothing that his society considered sacred, except perhaps the use of words in sport-like verbal jousting. Continued on page 11


Thousands Islands Playhouse goes Wilde While literary elite held court, Wilde held his nose. He poked fun at everyone and everything. In The Importance of Being Earnest, wealthy playboys Jack and Algernon (Algy) grow fatigued by the boredom and mediocrity of civil society, which is all too often hypocritical and delirium inducing. “They lead double lives in order to escape

Irish writer Oscar Wilde's play, The Importance of Being Earnest, will be performed at the Thousand Islands Playhouse from July 25 to August 23.

the humdrum of polite society,” said Ashlie Corcoran, Artistic Director of The Thousand Islands Playhouse. “But when they both start using the same alias to woo two different women, hilarious chaos ensues.” Needless to say, we witness a breeding ground for chaos. Between mistaken identities, the finest of witty banter, along with a great deal of Wilde-like charm, the play fills a theatre with laughter. “This play is often termed the wittiest in the English language,” said Corcoran. “Every time I read the play, I fall in love with the satirical and silly characters, the delicious word play and the exquisitely enjoyable plot.” The Playhouse production features what must be a director’s dream cast. “We’re having a reunion of sorts,” said Corcoran. “For those who saw Boeing Boeing last year, the same director, Daryl Cloran, and four of the same actors, Tess Degenstein, Alison Deon, Brett Christopher and Kirk Smith, are returning to help us create The Importance of Being Earnest.” The cast of Boeing Boeing was one of the funniest I’ve seen. Anywhere. To put that collection of actors together in The Importance of Being Earnest is, well, wild. Tess Degenstein (who played Gretchen, the German flight attendant, in Boeing Boeing) is superb at subtlety as well as outrageous physical humour. She’ll play Cecily in this production. I can’t wait to witness her deliver lines like, “But I don’t like German. It isn’t at all

a becoming language. I know perfectly well that I look quite plain after my German lesson,” or “Oh, yes, Dr. Chasuble. is a most learned man. He has never written a single book, so you can imagine how much he knows.” Brett Christopher, who plays Algernon, is well known on the professional theatre scene. He is the Artistic Producer of Theatre Kingston and has recently returned from the Stratford Festival, where he served as assistant director for A Midsummer Knight’s Dream. Over the past year, in addition to his role in Boeing Boeing, he appeared in Theatre Kingston’s Vigil and the Thousand Islands Playhouse production of The Clockmaker. Director Daryl Cloran is considered one of Canada’s hottest young directors. He has received the Canada Council’s John Hirsch Prize for Outstanding Emerging Theatre Director and the Toronto Theatre Emerging Artist Award. He is a past Artistic Director and one of the founders of the Toronto-based independent theatre company, Theatrefront. Cloran graduated from and taught at the Drama Department at Queen’s University.

Heritage Lifestyle - As America became the melting pot of cultures, jazz became a melting pot of music. Jazz and blues are different but related genres. Both grew out the American South and were largely created by African-Americans but became distinct musical art forms. The blues arose in the delta region of the South, especially Mississippi. Early blues recordings featured a solo singer and guitar. There were no large ensembles. Jazz developed in New Orleans. The music is heavily brass and piano-based. African American music mixed with European influences. Scott Joplin was one of the first to combine the two forms into ragtime, recognized as early jazz. Ragtime is best described as having an emPHAsis on the wrong sylLAble. That syncopation is typical of early jazz. Jazz also has deep roots in the brass band culture of New Orleans of the late 19th century. While blues remained a largely black genre for many years; jazz became a blend of black and white from its early days. Writing for the Ken Burns PBS

unknown,� the word can be traced to New Orleans. The early spelling of jazz was jass. In its early usage, it meant passion, heat, or something hot or exciting. The first band known to use the word was the Original Dixieland Jass Band, which comprised Irish and other working-class lads from New Orleans. The word “jass,� to describe a certain style of music, traveled from New Orleans to the red-light districts of San Francisco, Chicago and New York. This hot, passionate new music took on the label of jass music, and it wasn’t long before it was relabeled as jazz (“z� seeming more exotic). But its first use was back in New Orleans by the Jass Band with the Irish musicians saying the Irish word teas, which is pronounced “jass/jazz�. This early band in New Orleans was simply using an Irish word of the streets, jass, to describe their music: passionate, hot, exciting. Little did they know that they could be labeling a new genre of music. Jazz bands became popular in New York City and Chicago. Radio stations picked up jazz and helped its spread. Blues had more of a word-of-mouth

growth on the streets as it spread town by town to places in Tennessee, Texas and California, before moving north to Chicago. Musicians like Robert Johnson, Son House and Howlin’ Wolf wailed as their guitars carried the rhythm. Blues relies heavily on vocals, a guitar and the 12-bar form. In jazz, you’ll hear lots of keyboard and horns and a more instrumental style. As jazz grew, new styles like Dix-

Big Band music rose to prominence in the 1920s–1940s with artists like Duke Ellington and Benny Goodman. Dizzy Gillespie gave us Bebop, with its smaller ensembles and complex melodies and chord progressions. Continued on page 14

documentary, Jazz, famed jazz musician Wynton Marsalis, Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, said: “Whites found black musical performances on the plantation fascinating and often went to the slave quarters to watch slaves sing and dance. There are many such accounts in books by whites who visited or lived on plantations, from Fanny Kemble to Frederick Law Olmsted, architect of New York City’s Central Park....These forms of music had similar features, although they did not appear in every single instance: use of call and response; improvisation as an essential part of the creative process; extensive use of slurs, moans, cries, and bends in both the vocal and instrumental performance; and, in the secular music, poly-rhythms.� These characteristics describe what we now know as jazz. “New Orleans had a great tradition of celebration,� wrote Marsalia. “Opera, military marching bands, folk music, the blues, different types of church music, ragtime, echoes of traditional African drumming, and all of the dance styles that went with this music could be heard and seen throughout the city. When all of these kinds of music blended into one, jazz was born.� The etymology of the word jazz is often debated. Typically listed as “source

Wynton Marsalis describes Louis Armstrong as one of the greats who transcends every era. “Through his clear, warm sound, unbelievable sense of swing, perfect grasp of harmony, and supremely intelligent and melodic improvisations, he taught us all to play jazz.” The Swing Era of the mid-1930s to mid-1940s brought an optimistic sound. From a sociological perspective, the Swing Era countered the negative mood of The Great Depression. Benny Goodman, Duke Ellingston and Count Basie are good examples. Although I’ve never heard of a genre called sexy/sensual jazz, Stan Getz and John Coltrane could certainly fit there. The sub-genre is typically referred to as cool jazz and had a lot of its mellow influence from California. Coltrane also gained fame for bebop and the less-listener friendly avant-garde jazz. Jazz is really still a music of the clubs, of the night. The same person, like famed bassist Ron Carter, may play a small New York club like The Blue Note, which only holds about 200 people, one night and be on stage in front of ten thousand at a jazz festival the next week. Jazz is a genre based on skill and dedication, not marketing and facades. Although I like jazz in most settings, nothing matches sitting in a small club, close to the stage, nursing a Manhattan

and rubbing shoulders with Grammywinning musicians after their set. You’ll be able to hear some fine jazz locally at the Prince Edward County Jazz Festival, which runs from August 12–17. Musical events will be held at the Regent Theatre in Picton and other locations around the county. If you want to hear some of the finest music in a small, informal setting, and you’re willing to travel a bit, head for The Garage Restaurant and Cafe in New York. And if you want to travel farther afield, The Jim Cullum Jazz Band (Jim Sr. passed the torch to his son, also Jim, along the way) has performed on Tuesday through Saturday since 1963 at the Landing Jazz Club, now located in the Hyatt Regency on the Riverwalk in San Antonio. That might sound like a long way to travel to hear music, but you won’t be disappointed. The music there is teas, jass in its original meaning: hot, passionate and exciting. If you can’t get to Texas, you can hear the Jim Cullum Jazz Band on the weekly NPR show called Riverwalk Jazz. They’ve been featured weekly since the 1980s. But it’s so much more exciting in person at the small San Antonio jazz club. Women have had a huge influence on jazz, and are often glossed over by historians of the genre. Women have held their own since the birth of the sound. Billie Holiday, despite the movie called The Lady Sings the Blues, was a great jazz musician.

Modern jazz artists include saxophonist Ada Ravotti, pianist Champian Fulton, and singers like Madeleine Peyroux, Simona de Rosa (keep your ears open for this newcomer) and Diana Krall. Peyroux will perform at Kingston’s Grand Theatre on December 11. Listen to Madeleine Peyroux and you’ll think this white American, who used to busk on the streets of Paris, is Billie Holiday. Her sultry, edgy and powerful, yet soothing vocals will take you back to the early roots of jazz and the likes of Lady Day (Billie Holiday) and at the same time show you how far jazz has advanced. The simple sounds of her music mask the complex chord structures and subtle vocal inflections. I first heard her in The Blue Note in New York’s Greenwich Village. I came out of the performance shocked at just how talented she is. Who else could play La Vie en Rose followed by Leonard Cohen’s Dance Me to the End of Love, which Peyroux turned into a jazz classic? Next week: women of the jazz scene, past and present.

Kenyans fly Canadian colours in show of gratitude for Kingston charity’s efforts By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

This school is one of several that have been supported in some way by CanAssist. least 3,000 kids who will benefit from that as well as people at the clinic,” he explains. Several times a year, donors are in-

Heritage News – On July 1, a very special Canada Day celebration was held at a school in Mbita, Kenya, where the Kingston-based national charity CanAssist African Relief Trust has provided classrooms, school supplies and two new latrine buildings. In nearby Osiri Village, Kenya, children also raised the Canadian flag on July 1 at the S.P. Geddes Early Childhood Development Centre, another school that has been supported by CanAssist. “They’re very grateful for the things that we provide,” says John Geddes, a local physician who started CanAssist in 2008; he notes that it’s very moving to see the students who have benefited from the charity express their gratitude in this way. “They’ll often say, ‘we just can’t believe that there are people who don’t know us from so far away that care enough about us to help.’ It’s always very touching to me when I hear that. They’re very conscious of that and grateful because they do recognize that there are strangers in Canada who are concerned enough about their wellbeing that they’ll put themselves out in some way to donate.” Geddes travels to Africa several times a year to oversee the CanAssist projects, which include catchment

wells, latrines, washrooms, school supplies and hospital beds; they are provided for organizations like schools, clinics, community groups and women’s groups. Since 2008, the charity has done half a million dollars of work in east Africa. “That money goes a long way over there,” Geddes says, explaining that “we don’t do programming, we do tangible infrastructure.” Community groups apply to CanAssist for funding for whatever they feel they need the most. “We don’t go out and say ‘we’re only doing these things,’ Geddes says. “We say ‘what infrastructure project do you think would benefit your community’ and we look through the applications and select several that we can do over the next year. Then we try and fundraise for those specific projects throughout the year.” Currently, CanAssist is accepting donations to fund catchment tanks in nine schools and a clinic; the hope is to have them in place for the rainy season later this year. The project has already received a $12,500 donation from the Sasamat Foundation out of Vancouver. The Sasamat Foundation has also agreed to match all other donations CanAssist receives during the month of July, up to $5,000. Geddes hopes to raise at least that amount. “That way we’d have at least $22,000 and we figure there’ll be at

One special hay bale remained in field all season long Mary Cook

Columnist

editorial@theheritageemc.ca

log gate was at one end where Father could take the team in an out when necessary. That day, when I got to the field, the work was still all at the farthest end, and the mounds of hay still to be loaded onto the wagon reminded me of the gumdrops in a big glass jar sitting on the counter at Briscoe’s General Store. I was barely through the gate when I saw the bird. I stopped dead so as not to frighten it. It was on one of the hay stacks, its head deep in the hay, and its tail fluttering. I put the basket down and walked slowly towards the hay, and the bird showed its displeasure by swooping in and out of the hay declaring ownership. I knew it was nesting, and knew too, there were either eggs or baby birds deep inside. Before the day was out, that mound of hay would be on the wagon, and the birds nest and whatever was in it, gone. I dropped the basket and ran through the field to where Father and the boys were forking the hay onto the wagon, and cried to Father that there was one haystack that he couldn’t touch, and told him why. Emerson said he was heading right over to the place with the fork, and that would be the end of the bird’s nest. Father told him to stay where he was ... there was plenty of

work to do at that end of the field. And then Father followed me over to the gate and the haystack where the little bird had nested. He put his finger to his lips, signalling me to be quiet. The bird was frantic, making a lot of noise and going in and out of the hay, hovering, and proclaiming ownership again. Father took my hand and led me towards the opening in the field before he spoke. He said one haystack left in the field would neither make nor break us, and he saw no reason why the bird couldn’t be left alone. I was so overjoyed, I hugged his overall covered leg, and thanked him over and over again. I gave Father the basket, and he headed back to where the boys were working, and I headed over towards

the west hill and home to tell Mother about the little bird frantically trying to protect its nest. I told her how Father said it would be left alone to hatch its eggs, or feed its babies, whatever the case may be. Mother smiled and said, “that’s just like something your father would do.” And so for the rest of the season, standing alone in that big hay field, was one small mound. It would shrink in size. It would turn brown from the sun, but it would have served as a safe haven to a little bird who called it home. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Heritage Lifestyle - The sun was just starting to come up. Father had roused the brothers, and with great effort they dressed, ate their breakfast in silence, and followed him to the barns. They would head to the back fields, Father walking behind the team, King and Queen. They would have to cross the creek and then the Bonnechere, at the lowest ebb, sloshing across in their work boots to get to the farthest reaches of the farm. There was no bridge to go from the front section of the farm to what Father called “the back 40,” although the acreage across the river was much more than 40. The hay had been mowed into windrows, and now sat in little stacks which the brothers and Father had worked at for several days, getting it ready to load onto the wagon and brought over to the hayloft in the barn. They would be there for at least a whole day, working quickly just in case it rained, soaking the mounds of hay, which would have

to be dried out before being put into the hay loft. The flat topped wagon would already be in the field with board sides put on to hold the hay, and pitch-forks leaning against it ready for the job at hand. It would be a long hot day ahead for Father and my three brothers. Mother would have packed sandwiches and pieces of slab cake in an eleven quart basket, and jars of water with shards of ice. By the time the sun was high in the sky and my own chores done in the house, Mother would say, “alright, Mary, you can head out now if you want.” I would carry another basket of sandwiches, and more water to tide Father and the brothers over. Running like the wind, I would cross the water where an old tree had fallen across at a narrow point, using it as a bridge, saving me from walking in the water. I would tear up the west hill like someone possessed, ever aware that I was alone, cut off from Mother at home, and the men working in the fields far away. The field was the biggest on the farm, even bigger than what we called the ’20-acre field’ that separated our farm from the Thoms. A rail fence, put up by Father’s great grandfather, circled the field, and a

Walking across Canada to raise awareness about homelessness mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage News – Jason McComb has been homeless off and on for the past 21 years and during that time he has seen a lot. “At a very young age I learned that there is a story behind every story and judging the book by its cover we are almost always wrong especially when it comes to the homeless,” explained McComb, “I hear the stereotypes and I see the horrible treatment and the further oppression of the already oppressed and I’m sick of it.”

McComb decided it was time to take a stand – or in his case a walk –against homelessness in Canada after he found himself homeless again in July of 2012. His landlord moved him out while he was in the hospital receiving treatment for health issues and McComb decided it was time to do something more than just accept it. “I started an organization in St. Thomas called Homeless Happens, Helping Hands. It allows people to donate to me instead of different organizations and I put those items into the hands of the homeless.” Following his work with Homeless

Happens, McComb decided he would also do an awareness walk across nine cities in Ontario, but that wasn’t enough. He wanted to reach more people so he decided to take his message to as many cities in the country as he could. McComb left St. Thomas on April 1 and visited Queen’s Park before boarding a flight to St. John’s. From there, McComb started his walk on April 16, making stops in major cities and averaging anywhere from 45-55 kilometers a day. He arrived in Kingston on June 30 and visited Martha’s Table while in town after receiving an email from a volunteer that was inspired by his story.

“I have received countless messages from people that I have inspired to volunteer,” said McComb. “I have inspired people to help the homeless in their neighborhood more and that is really what it’s all about. I want this to teach people to give a hand up and not a hand out. I want people to take care of each other.” McComb is also trying to raise awareness about mental health within the homeless population. In many cases that is what leads people to become homeless, added McComb, and he wants to try to correct the misconception that people who are homeless want to be homeless.

“I hear all the time that people want to be homeless and if that is the case then something is wrong. When we were kids I did not stand up in class and say that I wanted to be homeless. That is not what anyone wants.” Although there have been many challenges along the way, McComb is dedicated to making it across the country and while his original goal was a year he feels that 14 months is much more realistic now. “Newfoundland was challenging because of the terrain and Québec was challenging because of the language barrier. Footwear has also been challenging and food has been challenging at times too,” said McComb. “It has all been tough, but the homeless are going through it too so I can’t complain. That is what this is all about and I am suffering just like them.” Through it all McComb has been overwhelmed by the support of people he meets including some famous supporters. “I crossed paths with Clara Hughes in Gander Nfld. and she put her gold medal on me and we had a nice chat. She is awesome and she really inspired me to keep going,” explained McComb. “Even if this walk kills me and someone gets help because of what I am doing then it will be worth it.” For more information on Jason McComb and his walk look for him on Twitter under the name HomelessMcJason.

Re/call tackles Canada’s “colonial amnesia” Reporter

Heritage News - Imagine you are walking downtown on July 1, surrounded by Canadian flags and celebrating people. A woman walks up to you, decked out in full Canada Day gear, with Canadian flags, maple leaf glasses, and a cape. “Would you like a special Canada Day flag?” she asks. Sure, you answer. She shows you a small flag, on which is stamped a beaver with a piece of string tied to its finger. The flag has a piece of yarn on it; the woman asks if she can tie the flag to your hand. Go ahead, you reply. As she ties the string to your index finger, she says: “This is to remember Canada’s colonial history. That Canada is built on stolen indigenous land.” How do you respond? The scenario played out many times during recent Canada Day celebrations in Kingston as part of a project by artists Leah Decter and Erin Sutherland. The artists wanted to challenge “colonial amnesia” about Canada’s relationship with indigenous people. Decter explains: “We were prepared for a lot of hostility, which we surprisingly did not get.” While a couple of people responded negatively, most people the artists engaged were positive, or at least receptive. Decter explained: “Many people said ‘this is something I’ve been thinking about today.’” No surprise. Indigenous issues have been prominent in the news in the last year with the actions of Idle No More, growing attention toward missing and murdered indigenous women, and the recent and historic Supreme Court ruling in favour of aboriginal land title. An old piece of advice says if you want to keep from forgetting something, you should tie a piece of string to your finger. Sutherland and Decter use this in the piece, dubbed “re/call,” aiming to remind Canadians of a fact people find uncomfortable: that we mostly live on land which was not ceded or which is occupied under treaties that have not been properly honoured by Canada. “And that affects us all in the present,” as Decter and Sutherland pointed out to the people they met. It takes guts to go up to strangers—on a day when many people are talking about how proud they are to be Canadian—and remind them of the parts of Canadian history that are a source of collective shame rather than pride. But Decter and Sutherland view the positive response they received as a sign that more and more people are willing to confront the parts of Canada’s legacy—from land theft to residential schools—that contin-

ue to create unequal relationships between settlers and indigenous people. Even more promising are the reactions they received from children. “The kids were great,” recounted Sutherland. “I asked them if they’d

learned about aboriginal peoples in their classes.” One boy proudly told her all about the Mi’kmaq nation and their continuing culture and traditions. On Thursday, a follow-up performance and discussion took place.

The performance happened at City Park (which was part of a Haudenosaunee village even after Fort Frontenac was constructed), and pulled in the audience as participants. Audience members stood in a circle, index fingers raised, as Decter and Sutherland tied a web of string between them, from which they hung inverted Canadian flags. A discussion followed at the Four Directions Aboriginal Student Centre on Queen’s campus; both Sutherland and Decter are PhD students at Queen’s, in the field of Cultural Studies. But they seek to move beyond the boundaries of academia. “We didn’t

want to give a lecture,” Sutherland said of Thursday’s piece, which was performed in silence. “The performance was our lecture.” Both see this week’s work as an extension of their other art and studies. Erin Sutherland, based in Edmonton, is a Métis curator with a focus on indigenous art. Leah Decter is a Winnipeg based artist whose work “interferes with dominant nationalist mythologies and entrenched colonial beliefs.” The events were part of Corridor Culture’s Seminar of Free Ideas series, with support from the City of Kingston and the Kingston Arts Council.

How to inspect for roof damage Many homeowners do not think twice about their roofs. But when leaks develop, roof repairs and the subsequent costs of such work shed light on how important it is for homeowners to pay closer attention to the roofs over their heads. Though certain roof issues, like shingles lost to inclement weather, are unforeseeable, many problems can be avoided with routine roof inspection. Checking roof conditions twice a year can help homeowners avoid potentially costly repair work or even more expensive roof replacement projects. Spring is a good time to inspect roofs, which are often at the mercy of harsh conditions throughout the winter. Heavy snow, ice and biting winds can WORKING TOGETHER do significant damage, making spring the perfect time to assess if any such 613-329-8199 cell JOHN www.youronlineagents.com/JohnMacIntyre damage occurred and address any isR E A L E S TAT E B R O K E R M AC INTYRE sues. 613-384-1200 office SALES REPRESENTATIVE 640 Cataraqui Woods Drive 640 Cataraqui Woods Drive * Start the inspection in the interior of Kingston, ON K7P 2Y5 Kingston, ON K7P 2Y5 “Your Kingston Connection”- With Over 30 years of Combined Experience the home.

Stay cool without air conditioning Hot, steamy weather can derail the best intentions of reducing energy consumption. As temperatures soar, few can resist the temptation to crank the air conditioning unit and relax in some frosty comfort. However, relying too heavily on air conditioning can compromise the efforts of men and women hoping to reduce their carbon footprints. It is estimated that up to 50 percent of electricity used during the warm weather season is for air conditioning. The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy says energy consumption for home air conditioning accounts for more than 8 percent of all the electricity produced in the United States, costing homeowners more than $15 billion annually. This translates to roughly 195 million tons of carbon dioxide, an average of almost two tons per year, for homes with air conditioning. Air conditioning costs and energy usage vary widely depending on the type and age of a unit, the size of a home, how well air conditioners are maintained and many other factors. Air conditioners work similarly to refrigerators. Evaporator and condenser coils either distribute cool air into the home or release hot air outdoors. When an air conditioner is running, a great deal of heat can be expelled outdoors. Air conditioners use pumps known as compressors to transfer heat between these components. Refrigerant fluid is pumped through the tubing and fins surrounding the evaporator and condenser coils. When the fluid reaches the indoor coil, it evaporates, taking

heat with it and cooling the air that will be pumped inside. The pump then moves the gaseous refrigerant over to the outdoor coil where it condenses, transferring that heat to the air that will be expelled from the building. Compressors, fans and additional components of air conditioning systems require a lot of energy and power. Reducing reliance on air conditioning can lower energy bills and benefit the environment. Before turning on your air conditioning unit this summer, consider these cooling tips. * Keep the blinds and shades drawn. Sunlight entering a home can quickly create a hot-house environment. To prevent such a situation from materializing, draw the curtains or blinds, particularly on windows that are south- or west-facing. This will cut down on the amount of heat that enters the home. * Use cool water. Run your hands, head and feet under cold water. This will cool down the blood in key pressure points of the body and keep you feeling cool for an hour or more. * Switch to LEDor CFL bulbs. Incandescent bulbs produce more heat than light, contributing to warmer ambient air. Light-emitting diode or compact fluorescent lights not only use less energy but also run much cooler. * Run fans in a counter-clockwise position. Ceiling fans come equipped with a switch that enables you to change the blades’ spinning direction. Counter-clockwise will draw the cooler air up from the floor and distribute it throughout the room.

* Dress sparingly. While in the comfort of home, wear minimal clothing to remain cooler. Sleep in less clothing and remove covers if you’re finding it difficult to get a good night’s rest. * Change your home’s color scheme. A light-colored roof and siding will help reflect the sun’s rays rather than absorb them. This can make a home considerably cooler. * Plant shade trees. Trees can stop sunlight from baking a home or backyard. Trees also absorb and sequester carbon dioxide emissions, which makes them beneficial to the environment for a variety of reasons. * Open windows and doors at night. Open windows to allow cool nighttime air to enter. Open interior doors (including closets) to allow trapped, hot air to be released. This may help cool the home down a few degrees. * Avoid steam and heat-producing appliances. Dishwashers, ovens and hot showers can add extra heat to an already warm home. Wait until the evening before running appliances. Stick to cool showers and cook outdoors if possible. * Insulate your home. A home that has a well-insulated attic and walls will keep the heat out of the house during the hotter months of the year. Air conditioning systems use a great deal of energy, but eco-conscious homeowners can explore other methods of keeping cool to help lessen their reliance on air conditioners this year.

Add some fresh color to kitchen cabinets Many homeowners dream of giving their kitchens a full-scale remodel. Though such a project can give a kitchen an entirely new look, that look does not come cheap. According to Remodeling magazine’s 2013 “Cost vs. Value Report,� homeowners can expect to spend more than $53,000 on a major kitchen remodel and recoup just below 70 percent of that cost at resale. So while the idea of a full-scale kitchen remodel might be a dream project, the cost of such an undertaking is beyond many homeowners’ budgets. But homeowners who cannot afford a full remodel can still give their kitchens a new look and can do so for relatively little money. Painting kitchen cabinets a new color or simply giving fading cabinets a fresh coat of paint can instantly add life to a kitchen, giving the room an entirely different feel without breaking the bank. The following are a few tips for homeowners planning to paint their kitchen cabinets. * Assess your existing cabinets. Some cabinet materials, including wood and metal, can be repainted without much of a fuss. But other materials, including plastic laminate, are not so amenable to repainting, and will likely require specialty paints. Homeowners with plastic laminate cabinets should first paint a spot or two with a sample paint, being careful to choose a spot that’s concealed. If the paint bonds well to the plastic laminate, then you can go forward and buy enough paint to redo all of the cabinets. If the paint does not take, consult a professional to find a paint that’s likely to be a better fit. Expect this process to be one of trial and error. * Plan for ornate cabinets to take a little longer. Painting projects will go

faster when cabinets have flat fronts, but they can take considerably longer when cabinets are unique and more detailed. If your cabinets are ornate, then factor this extra time into your schedule. * Remove the doors and hardware. When painting cabinets, it’s best to essentially disassemble them, removing the doors, handles, knobs, latches, and any additional hardware. When removing hardware, be sure to set them aside in clearly marked plastic bags so it’s easier to reassemble the cabinets once the fresh coat of paint has dried. As doors are removed, number each door and its corresponding location, much like products that require assembly are numbered at the factory. This makes it easier to reassemble and ensures the cabinets and their hinges will align properly once you have finished painting. * Don’t paint dirty surfaces. Cabinet surfaces have likely collected their share of dirt, grease and grime over the years, so you want to clean these surfaces thoroughly before painting. Once surfaces have been cleaned, rinse them off and give them ample time to dry. * Sand the surfaces. Once the surfaces have been cleaned and are completely dry, it’s time to start sanding them. Lightly sand the doors using a wood sanding block, working to create a firm base to which fresh paint can easily adhere. Areas that are most exposed to wear and tear may require some extra elbow grease, and some areas may be especially flaky. When old paint is flaking off, this means the previous finish did not adhere very well to the surface, which is not necessarily

uncommon in kitchens, where moisture and grease residue can make it harder for paint to adhere to the surface. In such instances, sand the flaky areas to the bare wood before spot-priming with a primer or sealer designed for areas with heavy staining. After all of the sanding is complete, vacuum the surfaces to ensure there is no leftover sanding dust before painting. * Apply primer-sealer. Primersealer ensures the fresh paint will bond well to the surfaces, preventing

HomeFinder.ca

conditions like flaking in the future. * Paint the cabinets. After the primer-sealer has been applied, it’s time to paint the cabinets. Begin with the inside edges and openings of the face frames, followed by the outer cabinet sides and then the front of the frames. Then move on to the cabinet doors and any drawer fronts you might be painting as well. Cabinets with more elaborate designs require closer attention to detail than flat cabinets. When painting, opt for thin coats, which dry more quickly

and also create fewer visible brushstrokes. When applying multiple coats, allow the paint ample time to dry between coats. Four hours between coats is a good rule of thumb, and lightly resand all surfaces before applying the second and final coat of paint. * Reassemble the cabinets. Once the final coat of paint has fully dried, carefully reassemble your cabinets and then enjoy the fresh and inexpensive new look that your freshly painted cabinets have created.
