City steers new rules for commuters who park around Queen’s & KGH By Bill Hutchins Reporter

Holy fire hose Batman! Many local families attended the open house at Kingston Fire Rescue’s Woodbine Road Fire Hall on Oct. 5 to meet local firefighters, see the fire fighting equipment and try the interactive displays as a start to Fire Prevention Week.

Kingston Heritage – Kingston is believed to be the only city in Ontario that sells monthly permits for commuters to park on residential streets. And now, the program is officially expanding into the neighbourhoods around Queen’s University and Kingston General Hospital. At their Oct. 7 meeting, the final one before the civic election, councillors endorsed a program to regulate hundreds of parking spaces on side streets around the campus area through a combination of time-of-use signage and permit parking. “We are breaking new ground here,” said Sheila Kidd, the city’s director of transportation. This is actually the second of five downtown-area zones that have been regulated by Kingston so far. The program was first rolled out in the neighbourhood around Hotel Dieu Hospital. City officials say the goal is to balance the on-street parking supply between commuters and those who live on the streets. They acknowledge commuters are jamming the streets to park for free all day long, rather than paying to park somewhere else. “What we want to do is control the spillover effect in neighbourhoods. We have let this occur over a period of time and probably shouldn’t have,” Kidd added. However, the strategy around Queen’s and KGH was modified after residents questioned the need to sell monthly on-street permits at all. “We don’t believe selling commuter parking permits is a good practice. No other municipality does it,” said Neil Donnelly. The city responded to the neighbourhood backlash by allocating just 107 permits instead of the original plan to sell more than 500 permits. There are over 1,000 on-street spaces in the area. Permit holders will be exempt from the twice daily ‘no parkContinued on page 6

Anti-student perception adds fuel to Kingston’s mayoral debate News – City council’s controversial decision last year to exclude post-secondary students from the revised district boundaries became a hot button issue at the latest meeting of Kingston’s mayoral candidates. Veteran councillor Rick Downes lashed out at two of his fellow opponents – Dorothy Hector and Bryan Paterson – for voting to keep students out of the district population count. Council’s original 7-6 decision was later overturned by the Ontario Municipal Board. “Why didn’t you support the students’ right to representation?� said Downes, immediately after Paterson had responded to a question about encouraging students to vote in the election. Downes also attacked Paterson and Hector for supporting the hiring of an Integrity Commissioner to investigate the conduct of Coun. Bill Glover, whom he described as the “real hero,� in the student district population battle. He went on: “My voting record, my reputation is much better than the other two councillors running for mayor.� Downes’ comment drew applause in the packed gymnasium at Artillery Park Oct. 8, which attracted

over 200 residents to hear the six candidates for mayor. Another resident asked Paterson and Hector to apologize for their handling of the student representation issue at council. Paterson, who first came to Kingston as a student at Queen’s, told the crowd that he supported a staff recommendation to exclude students from the district populations, just as “every other cityâ€? does. However, he says the notion that council is anti-student has become a matter of perception over reality. “Yes I apologize without reservations ‌ for that perception. I did what I thought was right,â€? he told the audience to hisses and heckling from the floor. Hector also appeared contrite for her handling of the student district issue, noting she had based her vote on the practice of the national Census, which usually does not count college and university students. “I apologize, too, because you’re left with the perception that I’m anti-student. And I’m far from that.â€? The six candidates running for mayor fielded over 20 questions on topics such as the need for a casino, third bridge crossing, prison farm fate, downtown revitalization and the Wellington Street extension another big issue for the McBurney

Park-area audience. Candidate Brenda Slomka opposes the need to build the road extension, noting she favours getting people out of cars and onto active transportation. “Listening to the public is a key piece of leadership.� Scott Foster says he favours more bicycle paths to bring people downtown, not another roadway. Downes likened the street extension issue to Toronto’s Spadina Expressway debate in the 1970s, and the government’s decision to stop it. “I am against the Wellington Street extension. Period.� Paterson says the road extension may be needed to spur development of Brownfields along the Inner Harbour lands, but added “I’m not in favour of a busy expressway.� Most candidates supported the need for a $120 million third bridge crossing over the Cataraqui River, but agreed it likely won’t be built unless senior governments each agree to provide one-third funding. The mostly anti-casino crowd also gauged the candidates on whether they are for or against gambling in the city – the focus of a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ referendum in the Oct. 27 election. “It’s probably the number one issue next to the third crossing,� said Paterson of what he’s heard at

Community Foundation checks KFL&A’s ‘vital signs’ at all in their community, meaning no participation in any activities over the past year. “Those individuals in the community who are highly engaged are participating in unions, service clubs or volunteering,” explained keynote speaker Dr. Bryan Smale, director of the Canadian Index of Wellbeing at the University of Waterloo. “We also looked at this participation in relation to democratic engagement and the relationship was very apparent.” Almost 65 per cent of eligible voters did not vote in the last municipal election. The survey showed that the level of satisfaction in the democratic engagement domain was lower than any other domain of wellbeing in the survey. “The level of interest in KFL&A municipal politics ranges from 13 per cent among the not engaged to 43.5 per cent among the highly engaged respondents,” added Smale. “We are suggesting that the best way to become more involved and engaged in the community is to get out and vote on Oct. 27.”

Voter turnout has decreased across the country over the years, but the CIW and the Community Foundation for Kingston and Area (CFKA) see voting and in engaging in ‘Acts of Community’ as the simplest way to start improving community wellbeing and engagement overall. “The report provides a list of 50 suggested things that people can do to become more engaged in their community,” pointed out CFKA’s executive director, Tina Bailey. “These range from simple day-to-day things like talking to your neighbour or calling a family member, to activities that require a bit more commitment such as volunteering or getting involved in a political activity. We hope people will check off those items that they are already doing, add their own items and challenge themselves to doing a few more.” The survey also focused on areas like youth engagement, physical activity, immigrant employment, child poverty, violent crimes and a variety of other topics. The full report is available at www.cfka.org.

From left, Dr. Bryan Smale, Dr. Kieran Moore and Mr. George Thomson led a group discussion following the Vital Signs report presentation on Oct. 7. Photo/Mandy Marciniak.

News – Less than 20 per cent of Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington (KFL&A) residents are highly engaged in our community. This shocking statistic, among many others, was presented at part of the sixth annual Vital Signs report on Oct. 7 at the Residence Inn. Community members, local municipal candidates and interested groups gathered to hear the results of the report and learn where we as a community can make improvements to our overall wellbeing. “Last year the Canadian Index of Wellbeing (CIW) conducted a subjective survey of residents and we used the results to report on Vital Signs,” explained Michael Bell, vice president of the Community Foundation

for Kingston & Area (CFKA) and Vital Signs project leader. “Our conclusion – as a community we are satisfied but there is work to do.” The CIW invited 11,000 individuals in the KFL&A community to fill out a questionnaire about their wellbeing and about 15 per cent of those invited responded to the survey. The survey showed that community members with a higher level of civic engagement have a higher quality of life and feel more connected to their community. The term “highly engaged” refers to an individual who participated in three or more surveyed activities in the past 12 months. An individual who is “somewhat engaged” has participated in one or two surveyed activities over the past 12 months and the survey found that almost 40 per cent of KFL&A residents were not engaged

New website aims to ‘Open Kingston’ up to the community and inform voters By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage News – With Election Day fast approaching, many Kingstonians are looking for information on their local mayoral, council and school board trustee candidates. They want to know where they stand on key issues and who aligns best with their own view points, but it can be difficult to find all of this information – that is where Open Kingston comes in. “It was a concept that I had been thinking about for a long time in different ways and the idea just kind of came to me earlier in the

year,” explains Andrew McCann, creator of Open Kingston, a website that is designed to give residents all of the information they need to know going into the Oct. 27 municipal election. The site, which is volunteer run, focuses on key issues in the community and asks candidates their thoughts on those issues. The site then displays their answers in an interactive and interesting way. “The idea of the info graphics came to me at 5:30 in the morning one day in August when I was trying to think of a way to ask questions and present that information in a way that is really going to engage voters,’ explained McCann. “I came up with the idea of the wheel and all the faces and districts and really thought it was an effective way to organize it.” The whole idea of the site is to engage in an open democracy platform and hopefully engage and encourage more voters to actually cast a vote. In Kingston in 2010, only 36 per cent of eligible voters voted. McCann sees Open Kingston as a way to improve voter turnout and hopefully fill in the gap of information about candidates that exists currently. “Reporters are trying their best to fill that void and print media and traditional media are certainly under a

lot of pressure to fill it too, but there needs to be another way to get that information out there,” said McCann. “What we are trying to do is address the growing trend towards digital democracy and more importantly the idea of open democracy, which is really trying to make information accessible but also make it meaningful to voters.” The site also includes links to news articles about each candidate and their answers to surveys presented by other groups in the community. McCann and his team want to give people as much information as possible. “We’ve simplified the info graphic wheels with yes, no and maybe icons to make it really easy for people to find out where their candidates stand on key issues. If people want to see the full answer to the question they can, but for most busy people a yes or no is really all they care about.” The site focuses on questions about the budget, community crossings and the all important casino question and it is already seeing a lot of traffic. McCann modeled the site Only after a similar one in Winnipeg and he was also able to see their statistics from the last municipal election. “They saw huge numbers in terms of unique visitors to their site and they saw a huge increase in those numbers on the day of the election One of the info graphics that have and the day before,” said McCann. “We’ve already seen great numbers been created for the Open Kings- and over a thousand unique visitors ton Website. these past few weeks alone.”

McCann has also received requests to keep the site going after the election and focus on council meetings and key issues in the city. He sees potential in the idea, but for now he just wants to create an interactive, informative site for voters to engage with. “We are just doing what we can to open it up more and to make the election process more accessible to voters in Kingston. We hope that voter turnout will increase this year and if we can be a small part of that then great.” Visit Open Kingston at www.openkingston.ca

Belle Park golf course still a long Queen’s & KGH way from getting in the green parking rules By Bill Hutchins Reporter

News – A group working to improve the fortunes of “neglected” Belle Park Fairways says it’s still a long way from achieving its goals. “The problems at Belle Park are substantial but solvable,” said Frank Dixon, who serves on the Belle Park working group. The citizens’ group began its daunting task last April of finding ways to attract more golfers and revenues to the city-owned 9-hole course on Montreal Street. It has identified five key areas to address: maintenance & operations, programming, events and potential sponsorships, advertising and marketing opportunities, and capital renovations and upgrades. In a status report to council Oct. 7, municipal staff and public supporters of the municipal course laid out some of the immediate challenges that must be addressed before the 2015 season opens, including the development of golf industry standards for Belle Park’s employees, the club house and the course itself. They also provided some golfing statistics

from the 2014 season, which was hampered by a wet spring. Among the findings: -6,727 rounds were played from May to September by both walk-ons and members, -Of those, 1,953 rounds involved pay-asyou-play green fees up to the end of September, compared with 2,784 green fee rounds played in 2013, and 3,045 in 2012 -golf revenues total about $117,000 this season, compared with $152,000 in 2013, and $180,000 in 2012. While final numbers have yet to be compiled, it appears the course continues to struggle with declining revenues and will need more municipal funding to remain in operation. In recent years, Belle Park has received annual tax subsidies ranging from $134,000 to $228,000. The report also included results of a survey from players. Of the 31 golfers who took part, three-quarters said club is either exceeding or meeting their expectations, while the remaining 25 percent said the club is barely or not meeting their expectations. The future of the only municipally operated golf course has been the focus of much debate in

recent years. Staff had once recommended it be closed and repurposed, but councillors decided to keep the operation going while the working group and staff look for long-term sustainable solutions. Aside from its work to improve the experience for golfers, the group is also looking at what it will take to bring the course up to par. “The facility is losing money with neglected maintenance for a number of years,” Dixon told council. It’s estimated the course would need at least one million dollars in upgrades to improve the tees, fairways and greens – money that a future council must decide whether to spend. Improving the golf course is tricky because it sits atop a former municipal landfill where watering and digging are strictly regulated to minimize garbage leachate. Group supporters remain optimistic they can develop a plan to keep Belle Park going as part of the city’s active community agenda. As member Andrea Blackwell noted: “Golf is one of the few leisure activities that can be played for life.” Next year marks the 40th anniversary of Belle Park Fairways.

ing’ times that will come into force next spring. The city is urging hundreds of other commuters – especially those who work at the university or the hospital - to seek alternate transportation options rather than buy municipal permits, which will cost between $78 and $117 a month. “Our suggestion is don’t line up at City Hall. Go to Queen’s, fill up the Queen’s parking that’s available. Look for alternatives,” said Kidd, adding the university has about 250 spaces available for rent at its main and west campus parking lots. She says another alternative is for one-quarter of Queen’s and KGH commuters to make the switch to public transit, adding the new on-street rules will coincide with the launch of two more Kingston Transit express routes in May of 2015. “It’s an aggressive strategy to target 25 per cent of those parkers taking another form of transportation. Is it doable? We think so.” Resident Erica Campbell supports the limited parking permit program. “I think the streets do need to be regulated because they are packed with parkers all day long and become very narrow, especially in the winter.” However, she says the two institutions should be doing more to address the problem. “I’m concerned that as KGH and Queen’s grow they need to supply parking for their own employees and students rather than have our neighbourhood streets becoming parking lots.” Mayor Mark Gerretsen says the city is not about to point fingers at two of the city’s biggest public sector employers. “Yes there’s a role for Queen’s and KGH to play, but there’s also a role for the municipality to play.” He says building new underground parking through the limestone is very expensive, and he says older sections of Kingston have unique challenges. “Our city has been around for 300 years in one form or another and it was never designed to handle the kind of vehicle capacity that we have now.” Kidd has no doubts that daily parkers will be creative to find their own solutions; monthly permits, transit, carpooling or parking even further away from the campus on streets that will remain unregulated. But Kingston isn’t stopping there. Kidd says the same program of regulating streets with strict signage and commuter permits is planned for the neighbourhoods around St. Lawrence College, McBurney Park and St. Mary’s of the Lake Hospital in the next few years.

The city has already enacted shortterm measures to address the problem of garbage on the streets. This involves hiring extra staff to patrol the downtown during the afternoon and overnight hours to empty overflowing trash containers and clean-up sidewalks around many of the bars and restaurants. “We started some initiatives this summer with positive effects but there’s definitely more to be done,” Wells added. The city also plants to spend $200,000 to purchase an additional street sweeper/vacuum machine that will be dedicated to cleaning debris off downtown streets and sidewalks. Councillors agree further steps are needed to address the ongoing problem, especially in light of recent ‘big dig’ infrastructure and beautification work along lower Princess Street. “This has been something that keeps cropping up over the last three or four years,” said Coun. Rob Hutchison. Doug Ritchie, managing director of the downtown Business Improvement Area (BIA), applauds the objectives and pledges to work with the city to clean up the downtown’s image. “We are ready to do more and we are ready to encourage our member businesses to do more.” Wells expects the refocused maintenance schedule will be ready for the summer of 2015, but he cautions there’s more work to do. “There’s some big things on the table and a lot of attention to detail.”

By Bill Hutchins Reporter

News - Next to parking, the issue of cleanliness may be the second most common complaint about Kingston’s downtown. City officials say they are working on solutions to ensure downtown streets and sidewalks remain attractive to visitors, shoppers and business owners. “There isn’t a quick fix to this and it needs to be a collaborative approach with the city, BIA, business and property owners,” said public works director Damon Wells. Wells provided an update to council October 7 on, what he calls, the complex approach to cleaner streets. He says part of the challenge is that municipal crews share garbage and recycling collection duties with private contractors. “It’s not all collected by the city. Some of it’s done on contract. We want to try and harmonize those operations so recycling and garbage isn’t left out overnight.” Downtown trash is currently put out every Monday night for a Tuesday morning pick-up, and that leaves it exposed to weather, vandalism, rodents and birds for 8 to 10 hours. During that time garbage bags are often ripped open and blue boxes tipped over, creating litter strewn along downtown streets. Along with a proposed harmonized collection system, Wells says a longer term solution may be to implement faster and more frequent collection of commercial and residential garbage bags such as twice weekly. But the enhanced maintenance comes with a price, adding an estimated $150,000 to $200,000 to the anIntra Oral Dental Assisting nual public works Education Assistant/Child budget. Wells says he is finalizing the and Youth Worker (EA/CYW) extra cost and will Web Design and Development present strategies to council in time for the 2015 budget talks.

Editorial

In Our Opinion

Very appreciative of Canadian and local healthcare

I must admit that I never really think about health care very much. When I was younger and got sick my parents took me to the doctor, we got a prescription and filled it and that was that. The same is true today, but now I have a much deeper appreciation of what we have, especially when it comes to health care services and specifically hospital care. Two and a half years ago my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer. She went into the hospital because she was having dizzy spells and feeling short of breath. Doctors quickly did a number of tests and found a nodule on her lung. I remember being really scared at the time, but the one thing that kept me sane was the speed at which the doctors were moving to diagnose the growth. In a matter of weeks my mother had over a dozen tests and a biopsy and they were able to determine that the growth was cancerous. Just a few weeks after that she was in surgery to have it removed and then in recovery. I was so grateful for the

care she received and the urgency that came with all of the procedures. Now, almost three years later, my mom is in remission and receives check ups every six months to ensure that everything is still good. The appointments still make me a bit nervous but I have full confidence in the healthcare professionals that take care of her each time. A few weeks ago, I experienced another situation that made me very respectful and grateful for the quality of healthcare we have. My husband started experiencing abdominal cramps over the weekend and by Sunday evening he had a fever. He thought that maybe he just pulled a muscle and asked me to drop him at the Queen’s medical centre on Monday morning before work. I assumed it would just be something random, but after receiving a call from him an hour later I learned it was much more serious. The Queen’s doctor had felt around a bit in his abdomen and then immediately sent him to KGH by cab. She was pretty sure he had appendicitis and hours later in the ER her theory was confirmed. While we did wait for an extended period of time in the ER that day, doctors moved quite quickly to diagnose Korey and get him into

surgery. In fact, he went into emergency surgery at two in the morning and all of the doctors proceeded like that was perfectly normal. When he awoke and moved to recovery, the care he received was extremely attentive and professional and every person we encountered was extremely friendly and helpful. Korey and I remarked on the service throughout the whole process and even pondered what it would be like if we weren’t in Canada. Would we still be waiting in the ER until the hospital had confirmed our insurance coverage? Would they be performing as many tests to figure out what was wrong? Would we want them to skip some tests to save insurance coverage for the actual surgery? Thankfully, these questions didn’t need to be asked. We were in and out of the hospital in just over 24 hours and Korey was well on the road to recovery. The whole process made both of us grateful for Canadian healthcare and the facilities we have access to and it also made us very appreciative of KGH and the services they provide. We hope to not need the hospital again for a long time, but at least we know that when we do, there will be amazing services, facilities and staff waiting for us.

It’s in us to give, so why don’t we? Editorial – We’ve all heard the Canadian blood services slogan on the radio or on television and even though we all know that blood donation is something that is needed and is relatively easy, so many of us ignore the call for donations year after year. Canadian Blood Services recently put out a call for blood donors stating that their current supply is ‘critically low’. Because of fewer donors over the past few months, the supply is at its lowest supply since 2008. While all types are required, types A and O are being specifically called for. Typically, the blood agency likes to have a five to eight-day supply on hold, but they are currently down to just three days. So why don’t people donate? There are many excuses from the typical ‘I don’t like needles’ to ‘they don’t need me, other people will do it’. Many people also worry about how it will make them feel or think that they are simply too busy to take the time. These responses may have been okay in the past, but now medical procedures are at risk of being delayed if more Canadians don’t step up and donate. Approximately every minute of every day, someone in Canada needs blood. According to a recent poll, 52 per cent of Canadians say they or a family member have needed blood or blood products for surgery or for medical treatment at some point, making donations even more important. Cancer patients usually require at least five units of blood during surgery and so do those undergoing cardiovascular surgery. People with internal bleeding may require up to eight units of blood and those who have been in a car accident could require more than 50 units. These numbers seem big when you think about donating just one unit, but if we all do it we can make a big impact. On average it takes about an hour to donate one unit of blood and that unit could help save a life. The process is simple and could be done on a lunch hour. Now there is even an app to make it easier. To book an appointment, download the GiveBlood app, visit blood.ca or call 1-888-2-DONATE (1888-236-6283).

Cook for the cure Dear editor,

I was quite disappointed in the piece you wrote regarding the Cook for the Cure held at Rosewood Retirement Home on October 1st. There was less then half a story reported here. You mentioned that attendees were invited to vote for their favorite dishes but neglected to mention the winner. The winner was Chef Jeff Fardella from Fardella’s Classic Bakery and CafĂŠ. The dishes he created for this event were a chicken penne pasta and mini apple and blueberry fritters. Shelly Doyle, the event planner for this fundraiser, stated that Jeff’s dishes “won by a landslideâ€?. Not only that, but this was his second win as he had won the competition the previous year. The delicious dishes that Jeff created for this event can be found on the menu at the CafĂŠ. In the famous words of Paul Harvey, “Now you know the rest of the story.â€?

Whether you are looking for casual dining with a group of friends or a more intimate experience, Tango Nuevo is bound to exceed your expectations. Nestled in downtown Kingston, the fusion tapas restaurant prides itself on its unique atmosphere and menu selection. “Our guests can try a great selection of tapas from all over the world. We serve Spanish tapas as well as Turkish tapas, Italian tapas, Middle Eastern tapas and Asian tapas. There are so many dishes to try. We research and find the best dishes to add to our menu,” notes Gokhan Cifci, Owner and General Manager of Tango Nuevo. “Our dishes are prepared with locally grown seasonal fruits and vegetables, and locally produced meats and artisan cheeses. Each dish is a blend of local flavours that mix together to make a delicious international recipe.” Cifci says he handpicked the restaurant’s chefs Dan Cholewa and Andrew Smyth for their talent and vision. Before becoming Tango Nuevo in May 2013, the restaurant was known to Kingstonians as Tango and Cifci was the bar manager. After 10 years in business the restaurant decided to close its doors, and that’s when Cifci saw his golden opportunity. “I had always wanted to open up my own restaurant. I have travelled the world and tasted different foods from all over and wanted to bring that experience to Kingston.” With a clear vision in mind, Cifci took over Tango and started making necessary renovations. “We kept the name Tango as an homage to the popularity of the former establishment and added Nuevo because we’re a different restaurant, with a different feel, different style of food and different ambiance.” Cifci notes that it is very seldom to find people on their cell phones when dining at the restaurant. “At Tango Nuevo we embrace the Spanish

10 Kingston Heritage - Thursday, October 16, 2014

tradition that sharing small plates, or tapas, brings people together and is an automatic conversation starter. People start to talk with each other when they come to Tango Nuevo, they enjoy each other’s company.” The restaurant does boast two big television screens, but it’s not what you’d expect. “We don’t play any sports. We only play silent, black and white movies from the 1920s, ‘30s and ‘40s. The kids love it, the seniors love it-- everyone is a big fan because it is something they have not seen in a long time, if ever,” says Cifci. Although the restaurant opened its doors just over a year ago, Cifci says they are always supporting local suppliers – from restaurants to farms, butcher shops and even specialty stores. “One of our big suppliers is Wendy’s Mobile Market, out of Lyndhurst. They provide us with fresh produce from local farmers for the entire growing season. But we incorporate local wherever we can in our business. For example, in the women’s washroom, we are using wonderful handmade soaps from the 1000 Islands Soap Company, two doors down on King Street. We are presenting their name and saying they are our neighbours,” he explains. Cifci says the success the restaurant has witnessed has surpassed his expectations. But what pleases him most is the reaction he is receiving from customers. “I am happy when I see people enjoying themselves in my restaurant. I am delighted when they leave happy. I have a great staff, and they know that the people that come in to the restaurant may be here to celebrate a special event, or maybe not, whatever it is, they do their best to make the customers happy. They know they are part of the customer’s experience and they always try to make a customer’s visit one to remember.” For more information visit: www.tangonuevo.ca, call (613) 548-3778, or visit the restaurant’s King Street location at 331 Advertorial King St. East.

Dark horse candidate hopes to bring new blood to Loyalist political scene News - Loyalist Township has changed a lot over the last decade, with an increasing number of young families choosing to settle down in the picturesque and relatively affordable lakeside municipality. Rob Purvis, a 38-year-old marketing and public relations professional, believes he’s the one to lead the township into the future; that’s why he’s challenging incumbent and 14-year council veteran Bill Lowry for the position of mayor. “We need a change, some new blood” Purvis says. “It’s been a long time with the same people and they’ve done a great job, but our community has grown so much with younger families. I feel I can relate to them better, and I know what they’re looking to have in the township as far as amenities, recreation and tourism.” Growing the township’s business sector is a top priority for Purvis. “I want that Loyalist Township business park filled up. It’s been sitting there empty. We need more businesses to come to pay for taxes and help shoulder the load instead of all the residents paying.” Another major issue: rejuvenating Amherstview’s Fairfield Park and making it a better, more exciting spot for young families to play. “I would love to see a beach, a boat launch, and we could use Fairfield House as a canteen or a restaurant.” Enhancing public transit in Bath and

Odessa is also key, says Purvis. He would like to see twice a day bus service that expands the Amherstview Kingston Transit route to include Bath and Odessa. “That would give people out there the opportunity to go into Kingston for appointments, work, that kind of thing. As it stands now, people are stuck out there if they don’t have a vehicle, or they have to pay for a cab. I think a bus that ran out there even just a couple of times a day would allow a lot of people more accessibility.” Another issue he’s been hearing a lot about on the campaign trail is the desire for a green bin program, especially for the more urban areas of Amherstview, Bath and Odessa. “That’s something we’ll have to look into. It’s time to start being forward thinking [on sustainability issues].” Other requests he’s had from residents include an off leash dog park and a membership funded gym at the Henderson. Purvis is confident that the community would support all of these new businesses and amenities if given the opportunity. “Right now we’re shopping in Kingston because we don’t have a choice,” he says. “It’s a habit. But if we had more local businesses and local restaurants, then we could take our kids out for dinner or go with our friends to watch the game at a local sports pub without having to drive 15 minutes to get to Kingston.” This would ultimately have a positive effect on a number of levels. “People can spend their time at home,

and spend their dollars here and help local business people, who are their neighbours, to grow and prosper. Purvis says his background in marketing and management has given him the knowledge and skills that will allow him to take on these new challenges and be successful. “At work I’ve been in a management position for nine years now and I have the ability to talk to people, listen and communicate well. My marketing background I think is key to helping us market the township and show the world why business should come to us.” Purvis admits he wasn’t sure at first how the community would respond to a political newcomer running for mayor. “I totally expected them to be all ‘who is this guy and why is he running?’ And people are asking that, but after I talk to them they’re really excited about my ideas. I’m actually really surprised at how supportive and helpful people have been and how much they really are looking for a change.” Loyalist Township Mayoral candidate Rob Purvis with his kids.

Paterson touts economic knowledge in bid for city’s top job hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

News - You could say Bryan Paterson knows a thing or two about finances. The mayoral candidate holds a PhD in economics from Queen’s, and is currently a professor of the subject at Royal Military College. Over the last four years, he has also served as councillor for Kingston’s Trillium District, and learned about budgeting and finances on a whole new level. “You learn the way that the city budgeting process works,” Paterson says. “You understand City issues at a far deeper level and it positions you to be able to develop solutions and strategies to those problems. You need to understand the problem really well before you can advance a solution.” Now, Paterson is hoping to put his knowledge and experience to use by being elected mayor of Kingston. “I believe I have the right vision, background, experience and personality for the job,” he says. “That’s why I’m running.” Seizing our economic opportunities, revitalizing neighbourhoods and the waterfront,

and living within our means are key aspects of Paterson’s platform. “Growing our local economy is a fantastic thing to do. It creates jobs, it creates economic opportunities and it expands the tax base, which brings more revenues into the city that we can use to beautify our parks and to fund our social programs for those that are less fortunate. Having that training as an economist gives me that skill set to know what the best ways are to grow our local economy.” One specific strategy Paterson would like to implement in order to accomplish this goal is focusing on growing sectors where Kingston has a competitive advantage over other municipalities. For example, he says Kingston could be a very attractive place for the food processing industry. “Food processing manufacturing requires a lot of good quality sewer infrastructure because of the byproducts that are created when you process food,” he explains. “Here in Kingston we’ve spent a lot of money investing into new sewer infrastructure, so it’s actually become a competitive advantage for us.” Strategic investments in infrastructure,

How CAA and Ontario Tire Stewardship helped transform a schoolyard. For the past couple of years, the parents, staff, and students of JG Simcoe Public School had been exploring ways in which we could improve our school yard. One of our plans was to create an outdoor learning environment. With the support of CAA and Ontario Tire Stewardship, JG Simcoe was the lucky recipient of $20,000 worth of schoolyard improvements. In 2012, local Kingston business, Car Medics, collected the most tires during the CAA RecycleDrive campaign and won the opportunity to regreen a local school ground. They chose JG Simcoe PS as the recipient. Truly, it was our good fortune! To say that the improved schoolyard transformed our school community would be an understatement. Visually, the old space had the appeal of a fenced in vacant lot, unused for more than ten years. Over the course of a few weeks, the lot was cleared, greenery was planted, recycled tire mulch was spread, and limestone blocks were placed in the ground.

The results were better than we ever could have imagined. An outdoor classroom; an alternate learning environment for students to discuss, learn, and explore. The space also became a gathering spot for our community as they dropped off or picked up their children. The energy became positive and vibrant—one that connects our families to each other and to the school in a deeper fashion. While we didn’t anticipate this impact, we embraced it. Thank you to all of those who have contributed to this project—from CAA and Ontario Tire Stewardship, to our friends at Car Medics and Nature’s Way Landscaping, and all of the individuals who came together to create the JG Simcoe green space.

Mayoral candidate Bryan Paterson. such as expanding the airport, will also be key, says Paterson. “If we invest in the airport, that’s going to help our tourism industry. It’s also going to help attract more business because we hear one of the disadvantages for Kingston is it’s difficult to get in and out of Kingston.” He also supports a third crossing as another pillar of infrastructure development. “I think that the third crossing is a strategic investment in our economy because by creating a transportation corridor across the north end of the city, we’re actually going to spur redevelopment in areas where currently development is lacking.” While serving on council, Paterson had the opportunity to chair council meetings, gaining experience and knowledge of what the mayor’s job entails. “I’ve had experience chairing very difficult, contentious meetings.

to run those meetings, how to be fair to everyone and navigate through difficult debates.” He notes that political differences can be healthy, so long as there is an atmosphere of mutual respect. “We may disagree on a particular issue, but if we respect each other we can disagree and we can debate. We challenge each others’ viewpoints and that ensures that we make the right decision.” If elected, Paterson says he would do his best to infuse council with this kind of respect. “I think that as the mayor when you set the tone and you set that example, everyone else follows suit. Yes, we can very well have some differing opinions on issues, but if we respect one another we can work together as a team.” To learn more about Bryan Paterson and his platform, visit www.bryan4mayor.ca

Denis Doyle seeks second terms as mayor of Frontenac Islands and hopes to keep moving forward with multiple projects By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage News –Denis Doyle certainly wears a lot of hats. In addition to being mayor of Frontenac Islands, Doyle is warden of Frontenac County, a member of county council and part of multiple development groups in the region - and he’d like to continue doing it all. “The decision to run again was an easy one for me,” said Doyle. “There are so many projects that I want to see through and many more that I want to get going.” Doyle started his work with the Frontenac Islands community eight years ago when he ran for council. He quickly learned that he wanted to become more involved, prompting him to run for the position of mayor four years later. During that four-year term, Doyle has learned about the needs of the community and he is passionate about making Frontenac Islands better in many areas. “The main project that I want to see through is the transportation system and ferry system for all of the islands,” explained Doyle. “We have ferries going to Howe, Wolfe and Simcoe and all of them have their challenges. It is the kind of thing we need to keep working on and as our population grows so does the need for better services on the ferry.” Last year the ferries struggled with ice and the long winter and this year Doyle hopes some of those kinks have been worked out. He also hopes to continue expanding facilities on the islands themselves so that fewer people have to leave for medical appointments, child care and recreational activities.

“We have put in trails on Howe Island and an arena on Wolfe Island and some of those projects get support and some don’t, but unless we do these things we don’t have much of a community over here. We need things on the island that people can do locally rather than using the ferry to get off the island.” Doyle is also interested in keeping seniors in the area and is part of a development committee that is working on providing seniors’ housing units throughout the County of Frontenac. “We really want to keep the seniors in the community for as long as we can and we want to provide housing to enable that,” explained Doyle. “We are working on a development on Wolfe Island and once we get ours done we hope to have more or less a cookie cutter approach to roll it out in the other three townships.” Doyle also wants to focus on waste management in his second term, and although he knows that the project will take a number of years to complete, he wants to get the ball rolling and get people thinking about other options for the future. “We are all faced with waste sites being closed and as time goes on we need to find alternatives. We need to be thinking about the future and not just looking for other dumping sites.” While all of these projects certainly keep Doyle busy, he loves working for the community and finding solutions to important problems. “It ends up being very challenging, but I really enjoy it,” said Doyle. “I am very passionate about a number of areas and I have worked very hard to move a number of balls forward. I think that I can put at least another four years into this community and taxpayers will benefit from it.”

New program takes kids out of the classroom and into the Kingston arts community mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage News – Field trips are a highlight for most elementary school students. They present a chance to get out of school and explore new things. Now, a new program in Kingston is expanding that idea and taking kids ‘beyond the classroom’ for an entire week. The program is called Beyond Classrooms and the basic idea is to move teachers and their classrooms into community museums, art galleries and other community sites for a full school week. The program recently launched in Kingston and the Agnes Etherington Art Centre was happy to be one of the first community participants. “I had heard about the program from fellow museum educators in other cities and I thought it was a great program and a great way for students to have an in depth experience with current collections and exhibitions in a museum,” said Patricia Sulllivan, public programs manager for the Agnes. “I let the organizers know that I would be interested in being a site and I was very happy when three teachers purposed to bring

their classes to the Agnes this year.” The first group made the Agnes their home from Oct. 6-10. Grade 5,6 and 7 students from Holy Name Catholic School had the unique opportunity to explore photo galleries, learn about the history of Agnes Etherington and apply what they learned to different projects. “We can bring kind of a special experience and curriculum to what the teacher already has going,” explained Sullivan. “We make use of the experts on staff to speak to the kids and we very much have a partnership with the teacher. They have certain goals that they want to achieve during the week and we work to enhance that.” During their week at the Agnes, students toured the Etherington House and learned about the famous founder, explored an African mask exhibit and toured a photographic exhibit of Kingston Penitentiary. Tours occurred in the morning and then teachers led interactive activities with the students in the afternoon. “The good thing about a week like this is that the teacher is there while the Agnes expert is doing the talk. The kids journal about what they have learned

I think it is very enriching,” said Sullivan. Students also seemed to enjoy the process, with many of them remarking that it didn’t feel like school and they

loved learning about the pieces of art and interacting with them. The program will continue in a few weeks with another school and a third in the spring and Sullivan looks forward to seeing how those go as well. She also hopes that more schools take interest and apply for the program in the future. “I think that a program like this shows

the adaptability of an art gallery. You don’t have to come here and just learn about art. Of course art is what we are showing and we are certainly teaching children about art, but it can also be a vehicle for learning about other subjects too. They can learn about social studies and local history and art can be used to teach so many different subjects.”

Wolfe Islanders turn out to hear candidates Correspondent

Kingston Heritage-An All-Candidates meeting attended by more than 150 people was held on Wolfe Island, the Township of Frontenac Island’s Ward 1. Frontenac Islands made up Wolfe and Howe Island (Ward 2) separated by water, a stretch of highway and 2 ferry rides holds the record as being one of Ontario’s smallest townships. And what better than such a meeting for communities to meet the candidates and to hear what they have to say where ferry transportation is the single most pressing issue. The meeting, moderated by Wolfe Island resident Denis Chercuitte, brought together seasoned politician Frontenac Islands Mayor Denis Doyle seeking re-election and mayoral candidate entrepreneur-business man Mike Bromley, a 20 year island resident, the two incumbent WI councillors Barbara Springgay and Wayne Grant and the three candidates vying to fill those two positions, Jarda Zborovsky, Chad Hulton and Doug Franks. Every candidate had an opportunity to speak about themselves, their candidacy and their primary objective in running and to answer every question posed from the floor.

Chad Hulton 28. was born, raised, works and owns a home on the island, His concerns relate to transportation and tourism. Using the word ‘think’: improve transportation-tourism; Healthhome care including seniors; improvementsideas; needs-networking and keeping the community together. To encourage tourism sees a WI Info Centre in Kingston to promote the island, park and ride. Throughout the Q&A that followed, candidates responses were consistent with their opening concerns: The 1st question came from Tom Wroe: How to protect the village from a slow death if the proposed new ferry can only operate from the winter dock due to depth of hull. A common thread included a bus service running to the village, perhaps private enterprise and township supported (Bromley); two ferry’s during summer (Doyle); tourist info centre in Kingston promoting tourism (Hulton). Keep pressure on MTO about village in their deliberations. (Grant); May-Sept walk on ferry in the village (Franks-Zborovsky); Summer ferry in the village (Springgay).

A question re lack of information & home care by Nurses drew positive response from all candidates. Use of information technology a must. Improvements are /will happen at township, and through public participation, but no specifics offered. Support by all for Seniors facility, need for Nurses on site at clinic, home visiting.

A question re why no school board reps were present, Identified that both schools have low enrolment. Many island children attend specialized programs in Kingston. The general consensus of the majority of the candidates suggested merging schools and local specialized program development. There was some unsureness R0012945695_1016 about rights jn this situation. Further questions revolved around the ferry.. the “what if’s” Enjoy the Ride. when it is taken out of service for refit, its move to winter BLACK FRIDAY dock, village surSHOPPING vival, community services.

Animal Matters hopes to educate and promote discussions about holistic and complementary animal care By Mandy Marciniak mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News - Most of us interact with animals on a daily basis and in some cases we even consider them members of our family. This is certainly the case for Hélène Lawler and Christine Noble Seller, passionate animal lovers who have turned their love for animals into careers, and now into an animal focused community group called Animal Matters. “Hélène is part of a group in Kingston called Health Pursuits and they do holistic medicine for humans. One day I randomly suggested that we should start a similar group for animals,” explained Noble Seller. “I was laughing and joking

but she was totally on board and we talked about it more and we came up with this concept.” The concept is a monthly peer-to-peer group that meets and discusses animals and different natural, holistic and complementary treatments for them. They invite speakers from different businesses or animal educators in Kingston to come speak about animal treatments and therapies and then lead a discussion. “We are not giving medical advice or telling people what to do, we are just sharing information,” added Lawlor, a freelance writer and independent academic who lives on a farmstead north of Kingston. “People don’t necessarily know where to start with all of the options so we really want to educate them and help them learn more. I believe in a lot of preventative health care for my animals and I have learned a lot over the years and I’d love to share that knowledge.” Noble Seller is an animal communicator who

believes that animals are healers, messengers and teachers; she has translated this philosophy into an independent business. She also teaches others about animal communication and performs reiki treatments for animals. “There is a lot of information out there for humans about chiropractic, nutritional and herbal treatments and people don’t necessarily realize that the same options exist for animals,” added Noble Seller. “People who are doing it for themselves are often thinking about doing it for their animals, but they don’t necessarily know where to start.” Animal Matters held its first meeting in September and local horse enthusiasts Dawn Sadler from Heart to Horse Connection and Jocelyn Grey from Horse Centered Reflection were the first speakers. They gave a presentation and led discussion and the group saw an excellent Hélène Lawler (left) and Christine Noble Seller with a number of Lawlturnout, with people travelling from as far er’s animals on her farmstead north of Kingston.

Made by nature, assisted by man By Rob Mooy Reporter

Events - There are treasures right beneath our feet. Next time you go for a walk, stop, glance down, what you find might just be the foundation of an incredible piece of jewelry. A show and sale featuring these riches from the earth should attract hundreds of rock and mineral enthusiasts to Gem Storm, a gem and mineral show, hosted by the Kingston Lapidary and Mineral Club, Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 18-19 at the Portsmouth Olympic Harbour. Organizers say this yearís offering should prove to be one of the best gem and mineral shows ever. In addition to thousands of colourful rocks, minerals and fossils, many club members and exhibitors will be showing and selling unique jewelry pieces. “We will have over 34 dealers from Ontario and Quebec, some of whom are local talented club members,” explains Eileen Moss, club vice-president. “This year Gem Storm has all of your favourite vendors back. The show features

unique and beautiful creations made by nature and assisted by man. It’s a great once-a-year opportunity to buy those Christmas or special occasion gifts. Look to buy crystals, minerals, hand crafted jewelry, faceted stones, beads, carvings, stone creations and much more.” “The popular children’s mine stocked with lots of great specimens ready for collecting by young rock hounds will also be back,” adds Moss, whose love of the craft, she eagerly shares with anyone interested, began decades ago. It all started for Moss and her husband Les in 1984 during a vacation to western Canada. “We stopped at the amethyst mine near Thunder Bay and found this beautiful purple mineral and that started it,” explains Moss. “We discovered there was a club near the mine and visited with them for a bit, and that was it. We were hooked on these wonderful treasures coming from the Earth.” The couple have been enjoying the hobby for over 29 years. “We went to our first show when it was at the Tett building,” says Moss. “The shop was open and Cliff Walker was demonstrating the art and skill of lapidary. We were instantly hooked

and the rest is history.” It’s obvious they have a love for the hobby. “It’s all about the joy of creation,” says Moss. “I get satisfaction from taking a rough rock and turning it into a fabulous piece of jewelry, all the while learning about the wonders of the earth. Lapidary work is very soothing and relaxing.” Continued on page 23

R0012935315-1009


Volunteer instructor Grace Tran, helps her son Nhat, 13, with his silver smithing at the Kingston Lapidary and Mineral Club workshop. The club is holding their annual gem and Photo/Rob Mooy mineral show this weekend at the Portsmouth Olympic Harbour.

Made by nature, assisted by man The club promotes and encourages the growth of all phases of lapidary work, mineral and fossil collecting. It had its modest beginning more than half a decade ago in a home basement in 1962. It was in February of that year that two dozen rock and mineral enthusiasts gathered for the fist time with the hopes of starting up a club. The group bounced around to several locations over the years before settling on the Tett Centre in 1976 Since those early days, membership has grown and they have called the J.K. Tett Centre home for close to 30 years. But that all changed in 2009. With the rejuvenation of the Tett Centre, the club moved into their temporary location in the former town hall and St. Johns building in Portsmouth. This winter they will be moving home to the renovated Tett Centre. “We are really looking forward to this move, as our shop was designed by us, for us,” says Moss. “Everything we need will be in one spot which is a huge plus. We will be working closely with the other groups at the centre to provide increased opportunities for public awareness and increased avenues for our members to become more involved in a variety of new activities which will be created. We have really enjoyed our time at the former St John Ambulance building, but it was only a temporary home.” The club numbers some 200 adult and family memberships, aging from one year to 85 years. It is very family oriented with lots to do for all age groups. Their junior program, for ages 8-12, encourages youngsters to learn about rocks, minerals and crystals in a hands-on approach. Family oriented field trips are held from May through October to collect minerals and crystals from a variety of locales. “At our shop we offer a number of courses including lapidary (the art of cutting and shaping

stones) and silver smithing. All tools and equipment are provided and is open to all ages 11 years and older. As we are a non profit club we offer a wide variety of courses at a very modest price. Our instructors are club members and valued volunteers.” Grace Tran is one such member. She is fairly new to the world of lapidary, but in just a few short years has become proficient enough to teach a class in silver smithing. “I’ve always wanted to be a blacksmith, and thought silver smithing would be cool,” says Tran. “I was at one of the city showcases, and started chatting with Eileen. She signed me up right there and then, and that was three years ago.” She’s created lots and lots of jewelry. “What’s even better, my son gets to hang out with his mom,” Tran laughs, as her son rolls his eyes. Tran’s son Nhat, 13, is one of her students. “I got involved, because my mom kept bringing these cool pieces of rock and jewelry home. They were interesting and I wanted to make something as a Christmas gift. I thought it would be a fun hobby to get into.” One of his first creations was a ring for his sister. This was followed by his first pendant, a turtle cabochon, the first of many for this young lapidarist.

Home improvement projects perfect for fall Home improvement projects can add value to a home and do-ityourselfers know the sweat-equity that goes into such projects can give homeowners a greater sense of pride in their homes. But no two home improvement projects are the same, and homeowners should know that certain projects are best tackled during certain times of the year. Fall is a great season to work on your house, as the weather is often at its most agreeable once the summer heat has gone and before winter weather arrives. The following are a handful of fall-friendly home improvement projects for homeowners looking to improve their homes. Roof repair

Whether you’re repairing or replacing the roof, fall is a great time of year to dust off the ladder and get some work done on your roof for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, fall is ideal for roof work because you won’t have to be up on the roof with the summer heat bearing down on you. This can make the project move along more quickly, which is especially beneficial if you are paying laborers to work on the roof. The fewer hours workers are fixing your roof, the less you will be paying in labor costs. In addition, fixing up the roof in the fall ensures those winter storms,

be it rain or snow, won’t find their way into your home via leaks. A leaky roof in winter is hard to fix, as the roof surface could be treacherous in the winter and winter winds can make it dangerous to be up on the roof at all. Addressing leaks in the fall can prevent damage to your home’s interior, which can mount up if a leaky roof is not addressed until the following spring. Window work

When the weather outside gets frightful, poorly insulated windows can allow cold air into the home. That often has a trickle-down effect on finances, forcing you to turn up the thermostat in an attempt to offset the cold air pouring into the home. Whether you need your windows replaced or simply need to patch up any leaks, a proactive approach to leaky or older windows in the fall can save you from unnecessarily high heating bills come the winter. Addressing leaky windows also makes a home more comfortable for its inhabitants. Fall is the ideal time to address a home’s windows because the temperature outside tends to be pleasant. This means you likely won’t have to make much of an effort to offset the elements, and open windows in the fall won’t make your home’s interior very hot or cold like they might if you were to tackle the project during

the summer or winter. Fixing the floors

Wood flooring is a hot commodity for many homeowners. But not all flooring can be added to a home at any time of year. That’s because certain types of flooring employ adhesives that need temperatures inside the home to be within a certain range, and that range is often within 70o to 80o F, which makes fall a great time to install such floors. Colder temperatures can make it difficult for the flooring to dry and bond, which will prove problematic down the road. What’s more, many people entertain friends and family come late fall and into the holiday season, and it can be difficult to do so if you are busy installing new flooring.

Painting projects

Painting is another home improvement project that seems tailormade for fall. A fresh coat of paint or a new color scheme around the house can give a home an entirely new look and feel. But paint can be pungent and the aromas may last if it’s applied at a time of year when it can’t dry while the windows are wide open. Paint fumes inside a home can make the home uninhabitable, but painting at a time of year like the fall, when you can keep the

windows open during and after the project, can help air the home out. But interior painting isn’t the only painting project homeowners can tackle in the fall. Many exterior paints are temperature-sensitive and need the temperature outside to be above 40o F. Paint that freezes

won’t dry properly, and homeowners might be left with a costly and unsightly mistake on their hands. Fall temperatures tend to be amenable to both interior and exterior painting projects, just be sure to check the weather forecast before making your first brush stroke.

How to stay within your home improvement budget Home improvement projects range from small scale undertakings that can be tackled in a single weekend to large remodels that can take several months to complete. While no two projects are the same, every home improvement project demands that homeowners dip into their pockets and spend some money. Much like the scale of projects varies greatly, so, too, do the financial commitments required of homeowners to make those projects a reality. But no matter the size of the project, homeowners can find ways to stretch their budgets without sacrificing the quality of their improvements. * Do your homework. Before you decide to make changes to your home, it’s best to first do some research into any potential projects you’re considering. Many homeowners have decided to dive into a project before they fully realize its scope and cost, and going in blind can bust a budget, turning what might have seemed like a relatively simple project into a money pit. Understanding just what a project entails and how much it’s likely to cost can give homeowners an idea of what they can afford and where they might be able to stretch their budgets. For example, if you want to replace your kitchen countertops but can’t afford engineered quartz countertops, you might be able to find a less expensive alternative, such as tile, that you like just as

much. But it’s best to research such alternatives before you decide to replace your existing countertops. If you can’t find a less expensive alternative, you might want to postpone the project until you can grow your budget. But starting the project without first grasping its true cost is a recipe for disaster, so do your homework before you find your toolbox and start working. * Build unforeseen expenses into your budget. Another way to stay within your budget is to include budget-busting unforeseen expenses into the budget from the get-go. Whether you’re doing the project yourself or paying a contractor, nearly every home improvement project will present some unforeseen, and costly, hurdles. For example, you might find mold inside the walls when you’re converting a basement, and it can cost a pretty penny to make that mold go away. If you go into the project expecting such hurdles, then the financial sting of addressing them won’t prove too great a burden. But if the mold catches you and your budget completely off guard, you might be forced to overextend that budget or make sacrifices elsewhere in order to complete the project. Build some contingency money, including permit and permit fees, into your home improvement project to safeguard against such unforeseen issues. * Get to work. If you’re hiring a contractor, speak to him or her before

signing a contract to see if there is anywhere you can pitch in to keep the labor costs low. You might be able to pitch in during the demolition phase, saving the cost of paying your contractor’s workers to tear down walls or remove debris you can just as easily remove yourself. Another way to pitch in is to do the end-of-day cleanup yourself. Any role you play with regard to labor will likely need to be negotiated upfront, but you can save yourself a substantial amount of money on labor if you’re willing to get your hands dirty. * Determine if piecemeal is the most affordable option. Sometimes it makes sense to tackle one project at a time, while other times you might want to combine projects to save on the cost of materials. For instance, if your ultimate goal is to install wood flooring throughout your home, determine if it makes more financial sense to install the flooring all at once rather than doing one or two rooms at a time. You might save by buying all of your materials at once rather than buying a small amount of materials several times over the next several years. Home improvement projects often go a long way toward making a home more enjoyable for its owners and inhabitants. And while such projects can be costly, homeowners who stay disciplined can still get their dream homes without busting their budgets.

How to inspect your furnace before winter arrives It is almost time to bid adieu to the warm days of summer. Chilly afternoons followed by continually dropping temperatures are on the horizon, and fall is the perfect time to service the home furnace to ensure it is ready to withstand the demands of winter. Furnace maintenance should be done on a regular basis. The best time to do so is in late summer or early fall, when you still have enough time to address any problems before it gets too cold outside. HVAC systems malfunctions are typically caused by one of a handful of common problems. Inspecting certain components can help to guarantee a furnace is in working order when the first cold days arrive.

Fuel

Furnaces are powered by various energy sources. Electricity, gas or oil may be involved in the process. If fuel is not being delivered to the furnace, the pilot will not light and warm the air to be blown through the house. Some systems have an emergency shut-off switch that will halt fuel delivery to the unit. It’s easy for these switches to be flipped accidentally if a furnace is located in a high-traffic area. Make sure the switch is in the “on” position before reporting a problem.

In addition to these steps, you may want to vacuum the vent screens around the house. This will reduce the amount of dust blown around. Also, if the furnace exhausts into a flue, be sure that the exhaust route is clear so that carbon monoxide does not back up into the home. Many homeowners are fully capable of inspecting their furnaces to ensure they are ready for winter. If anything seems out of place or malfunctions, consult with an HVAC professional to make repairs.

Filter and air intakes

After several months of running the air conditioning, the filter on the heating and cooling system may need to be changed. Check the condition of the filter to see if it is heavily soiled. Furnace filters are relatively inexpensive. Since this thin barrier will be responsible for cleaning the air you breathe, it is important to keep a fresh filter in the unit. A clogged, dirty filter will reduce the efficiency of the HVAC system and may contribute to poor indoor air and allergies. Check the air intakes around the house for obstructions. Do not place furniture directly in front of intakes or venting that delivers air to the home, as this can compromise air flow and force the unit to work harder. Without adequate air flow through the system, the furnace may not turn on. Many systems also have some sort of external vent or exhaust pipe. Check that the area is free of leaves, debris and animal nests. Again, any blockages can impede the efficiency of the unit or cause it to fail.

Thermostat

R0012908725

Very often a furnace may not turn over because the thermostat is faulty. Many a homeowner has spent money to have a service person come out to examine the furnace, only to learn they only need a new thermostat or battery in the thermostat. Check the thermostat against a separate thermometer to ensure that it is reading the right temperature in the house. Raise the setting a few degrees to test if the heat kicks on.

Budget-friendly bathroom transformation tips The allure of a spa-style bathroom is something few homeowners can resist. Such bathrooms can make for a welcome retreat after a long day at the office or an afternoon spent chasing kids around the yard. But as appealing as such a sanctuary may seem, the cost of creating a luxury washroom is more than many homeowners’ budgets can withstand. Fortunately, a dream bathroom does not have to break the bank. In fact, there are several ways to make a bathroom worthy of the most comforting spa without stretching your budget. * Install a wall-hung mirror. If your idea of a luxury bathroom harkens back to a time before the advent of recessed medicine cabinets, then a wall-hung mirror can give the bathroom an entirely new feel without much of a financial commitment. Flush-mount mirrors need not require the services of a contractor, but they can provide a sense of elegance that recessed cabinets cannot. * Replace bathroom countertops. A countertop replacement job may sound expensive, but such an undertaking is not very costly in the washroom, where counter space is typically limited. Since the cost of countertop materials is by the square foot, you can replace bathroom surfaces for a relatively small amount of money. Granite countertops can

be beautiful, but such surfaces do not create the warm feel that many prefer in a luxury bathroom. A material such as soapstone is warm and inexpensive and can quickly give the bathroom a new look. * Embrace calm colors. Painting the bathroom is another inexpensive way to give the room an entirely new look. If the walls of your washroom are currently a vibrant color, consider a more calming tone to give the room the luxurious and relaxing feel you’re aiming for. If your bathroom includes a clawfoot tub, you also can make it a two-tone tub to add a touch of relaxing elegance. Paint the tub’s exterior in a calming tone such as soft gray, and you will have transformed the washroom at little cost and even less effort. * Transform your double vanity. Many homeowners prefer a double vanity in their bathrooms, as such a setup allows both men and women the space to get ready for bed or work without getting in one another’s way. But instead of a traditional vanity with a counter between the sinks, consider installing matching pedestal sinks to surround an antique washstand. This can give the washroom a feel of antique luxury, and such washstands can found for a few hundred dollars. * Replace old fixtures. Though

they are often overlooked, cabinet and door fixtures as well as towel racks can greatly influence the feel of a washroom. If the cabinet and drawer handles are old or outdated, replace them with more modern options. Such a job might be even

more effective if you repaint or reface existing cabinetry. Neither task is terribly expensive, but both can give the washroom a more luxurious feel. The same goes for replacing old towel racks, which can be an eyesore if they’re especially

dated. Transforming a bathroom may seem like a significant and costly undertaking, but savvy homeowners can give their washrooms a new and luxurious look without spending much money.

Prep the yard for winter weather snow, so collect these items and store them for the winter. Take out patio umbrellas and put them in the shed. If something is too large to move indoors, such as a barbecue or a pool filter, cover it with a durable tarp and secure it with rope. * Cover delicate trees. Depending on where you live, certain fruit trees, including fig trees, may need to be covered for the winter. Covering protects them from subfreezing temperatures and helps ensure they will rebound in the spring. Tropical plants should be moved indoors where they can thrive in a heated home. Do not rip out chrysanthemum plants. Contrary to popular belief, these are not annuals. They will rebloom year after year if allowed to do so. * Remove water collectors. Bring in or cover anything that may accumulate water, such as bird baths or kids’ toys. Water expands when frozen, and that means water trapped in any ceramic, glass or even plastic vessel can expand and cause the container to crack. * Clean up leaves and debris. Piles of leaves not only can suffocate a lawn and cause discoloration, but also can be attractive homes for rodents and insects looking for a warm place to spend their winters. Keep your yard neat and clean to discour-

age wildlife from taking up residence near your home. * Cover vegetable and flower beds. Invest in some burlap to lay down over planting beds. This helps to keep the ground from freezing over and minimize weeds for next season. * Care for outdoor ponds. If you have a pond on your property, remove any weeds around it and fish out any leaves from the water. Leaves will decay in the water and build up ammonia levels that can harm fish. If the pond is small, cover it for the winter. Also, start cutting back on feeding outdoor fish. These aquatic animals’ bodies begin to prepare for winter by slowing down metabolism. Continuing to feed them can harm the fish when the temperature drops. * Wrap up pool season. It’s wise to close the pool and cover it before leaves start to drop. Otherwise you will have a hard time of keeping the water clean. * Plant spring bulbs now. Now is a good time to plan where you want to put spring bulbs. Once you have mapped things out, get the bulbs in the ground. Bulbs are relatively inexpensive and will provide that first punch of color when winter finally skips town.

As quickly as autumn weather arrives it seems to move aside for the blustery, cold days of winter. Winter can catch a person off guard and the seasons are now less predictable than ever before. It’s never too early to begin preparing your yard and outdoor living spaces for winter. Homeowners may be sad to bid farewell to the furniture and accessories of the fair-weather season, but time is of the essence when prepping for impending ice and snow. * Clean patio furniture. Give cushions and structures a thorough cleaning and allow to dry completely. Cleaning items before storing them for the winter saves time and energy next year when it’s time once again to set up the yard for recreation. If anything is damaged beyond repair, discard it and look for replacements during end-of-season sales when savings can be had. * Move things indoors. The more items you can store in a safe and secure location the better. Load the garage, basement or storage shed with outdoor gear. Leaving items exposes them to the elements, and such exposure can cause rust, wear and damage. Flower pots and lawn ornaments also can blow around in winter wind or collapse under the weight of the

10 ways to conserve energy this winter Conserving energy in the winter is a concern for many men and women. Whether your goal is to save energy and do your part for the environment or to trim a few dollars from your winter utility bills, here are 10 ways to reduce energy consumption without sacrificing comfort this winter. 1. Have the furnace serviced. You can reduce furnace fuel consumption by as much as 10 percent by having the system serviced yearly. Late spring or early autumn is a good time to schedule an inspection and have filters replaced in forced-air systems. All radiators and other elements should be kept free of dust. 2. Remedy drafty windows. Drafty windows not only let cold air in, but also let warm air out. This is a one-two punch in terms of energy waste, forcing heating units to work harder to regulate a consistent temperature. Caulking and weatherstripping applications are easy do-it-yourself projects. If windows are old and especially drafty, consider replacement. If such an undertaking will stretch your budget, use tightly sealed plastic sheeting to insulate drafty windows until you can afford to replace them. 3. Address additional leaks. Windows and doors are not the only places where cold air can get in or warm air can escape. Leaks occur around pipes and plumbing penetrations to the home, and cold air also can enter through utility cut-throughs, light plates and outlets. Use insulation or weath-

erstripping to seal leaks in these areas. 4. Decorate with light-colored furnishings. Light-hued walls and furniture will reflect the sunlight that makes it into a home while also reflecting artificial light more effectively than darker shades. This can help you reduce your reliance on lamps and other lighting. 5. Make use of the sun. In the winter, the sun’s rays are not as powerful as during other seasons. That’s due to the tilt of the planet’s axis. However, you can still maximize daylight time for warmth. Open curtains and drapes on southern-facing windows and let warm sunlight shine through. Then close the curtains again when evening falls. You may be able to turn down the heat during the day when the sun is warming your home. 6. Use fireplaces properly. Fireplaces can be unnecessary sources of drafts and leaks. Keep your fireplace damper closed unless a fire is burning. Keeping the damper open is like keeping a window wide open during the winter, allowing warm air to go right up the chimney. When the fireplace is in use, reduce heat loss by opening dampers in the bottom of the firebox or open the nearest window slightly and close doors leading into the room. If your fireplace is more decorative than functional, keep the damper closed at all times and consider sealing the chimney. 7. Conduct an energy audit. A home energy audit, also known as a home en-

ergy assessment, is the first step to assess how much energy your home consumes and to evaluate which measures you can take to make your home more energy-efficient. Many times these government-sponsored programs are free, and an auditor will go through your home with a fine-toothed comb looking for potential energy losses. After the audit is conducted, you can choose which repairs or modifications make the most

sense for your budget and needs. 8. Adjust the direction of your ceiling fan blades. Blades that spin clockwise will trap heat inside to keep your rooms warmer during the cooler months. Adjust your ceiling fan to a low setting to gently push hot air back down. 9. Wear warmer clothes. Layer clothing when you’re in the house to reduce the need to adjust the heat. A sweater, pair of thick socks and a throw blanket

can keep you cozy. 10. Only heat the rooms you use. Close off venting or turn off radiators in spaces that are not in use. There is no point in heating unoccupied rooms. Any modifications you make to insulation, window drafts, thermostats, and HVAC systems are not just beneficial for the winter, but they also should help you save money and energy in the summer, too.

A Hawai’ian legacy To hear Israel Kamakawiwo’ole’s voice is like receiving a spiritual massage. For those who prefer the aesthetic of simplicity, he’s known as Iz, or Bruddah Iz. A Native Hawai’ian, Israel Kamakawiwo’ole was a giant of a man—in body, mind and

spirit. A gentle soul with kind eyes and a mesmerizing voice, he died far too young. If you don’t recall his name, you would certainly recognize his music. Iz stood out as a master of Hawai’ian, jazz and reggae music. Iz’s last name may be long, and the Hawai’ian language appears complex, but the pronunciation is very simple. Every letter and syllable is pronounced, and “w” is pronounced as “v”. It’s Iz’s landmark Over the Rainbow that you’ve probably heard most often. It originally appeared as a medley with A

Wonderful World on his 1990 album, Ka ʻAnoʻi. It was released as a full song on the 1993 album Facing Future. Since its initial release in Hawai’i, it’s been used in a multitude of movie and TV soundtracks. A few of the many include Meet Joe Black, Finding Forrester, 50 First Dates, Fred Claus, ER, Scrubs, Glee, and Storm Chasers. The song is also becoming part of a New Year’s tradition. During New Year’s Eve celebrations in 2011/12, and again in 2012/13 and 2013/14, Iz’s Over the Rainbow was played in Times Square. Not only did Iz make such a classic as Over the Rainbow into a masterpiece of his own, he could take the simplest of songs and turn them into complex beauties. For example, his weaving of the traditional Hawai’ian Ali Wela with Twinkle Twinkle Little Star turns the childhood ditty into a deep and soothing song that is infused with the ocean waves and deep turquoise hues of the Pacific waters of his island homeland. I used to spend a lot of time working in Hawai’i. Even in the most blatant of the tourist areas of Waikiki and Honolulu, a spiritual intensity permeates the sand, the sea, the people, the flora and fauna. It’s truly another world. Time moves slower. It’s easier to take deep breaths from the moment you step off the plane into the open air terminal. It’s a land where corporate ex-

ecutives are more likely to wear the colorful Hawai’ian Aloha short-sleeve shirt than a jacket and tie. As you get away from Honolulu and into isolated areas of the North Shore or onto other islands, what we consider normal time and space no longer appear relevant. The first time I heard Brudda Iz in Hawai’i, the scent of the ocean and leis surrounded me. I was relaxed. Still, his voice stopped me in my tracks. I can describe it as nothing less than a spiritual awakening. I didn’t know that any human voice could sound so beautiful. The man behind the sound was a gentle giant, singing and playing a tiny ukulele. The small four-stringed instrument sounded like a multi-stringed harp in Iz’s hands. I’ve been told by Hawai’ian friends that when Iz was a teenager and sang in public, he could

bring an entire room to silence and a standstill. Hearing him for the first time was a profound life moment. I felt electric chills throughout my body. I bowed my head and gave thanks for the creation of such a beautiful man. Continued on page 32

A Hawai’ian legacy Continued from page 31

But Bruddah Iz was not a one-sided softy. Offering biting commentaries on

the exploitation of Hawai’i, he was a participant of the Second Hawai’an Renaissance, also known as the Hawai’ian Cultural Renaissance.

His song E Ala Ē became an anthem for Hawai’ian culture and independence. In the song, he explains how the Hawai’ian people should stand as one nation and fight

for justice. “We, the voices behind the face, of the Hawai’ian nation, the Hawai’ian race Rise for justice the day has come For all our people to stand as one, E ala ē.... Gone are the days of the alamihi ways E kiko i ka piko o ka mana o ka po’e The power of the people is the piko We the warriors born to live On what the land and sea can give Defend or birthright to be free Give our children liberty, E ala ē” The Hawai’ian phrase e ala means wake up or rise up, with the second ē is added for emphasis, encouraging Hawai’ians to rise up for justice. On some inner level, Iz knew his time on Earth was limited. “I am not afraid of death because in Hawai’i we live in both worlds,” he said in one of his concerts. “We live on both sides.” He was ready. He lived every moment to its musical and spiritual fullest. Iz only released four albums during his life: Ka ʻAnoʻi (1990), Facing Future (1993), E Ala Ē (1995) and N Dis Life (1996). Compilation albums released after his death include Iz in Concert: The Man and His Music (1998), Alone in IZ World (2001), Wonderful World (2007) and Over the Rainbow (2011). With sales of more than a million copies, the Facing Future album is the top selling Hawaiian music album in history. It remained on the Billboard chart for 493 weeks. Listen to his Over the Rainbow. Then sit back and listen to it again and reflect in shock. The only sounds on the track are Iz’s voice and a ukulele. Yet it carries us

to other lands like a full orchestra could. I have seen people listening to Iz as tears ran down their faces. He has a special effect on Native Hawai’ians; but he has a strong impact on anyone who hears his music. Iz was haunted by morbid obesity throughout his life. Health problems like respiratory and cardiac issues plagued the six-foot two-inch gentle man. He died of respiratory failure at the age of 38 in Hawai’i in 1997, leaving behind his wife Marlene and a daughter, Ceslie-Ann (Wehi). Recognized as Suppaman in Hawai’i, after his death his Hawai’ian wooden koa coffin lay in state at the State Capitol in Honolulu a. It was only the third time in Hawai’i’s history that anyone was granted this honor. The State of Hawai’i flag was lowered to half-staff as thousands attended his funeral (July 10, 1997). Two days later his ashes were scattered into the ocean at Mākua Beach. In addition to the thousands of mourners on the shore, just as many were in the water, accompanying Iz’s remains as they were released back to the earth and sea. You can see the event on Youtube or via Iz’s record label, Mountain Apple. I think the kind and gentle man would have approved. Beyond the sadness, there was much smiling, laughter and splashing of water as the dust floated into the air and sea. Aloha....which, in Hawai’i, means both goodbye and hello. Sails on boats were emblazoned with “Iz Lives.” Hawai’i mourned its great loss.

Fall always created special smells for young Mary My older and much wiser sister Audrey said it was all in my head. I had discussed it with her at length one Saturday while we were doing our weekly chores. That morning we were upstairs changing beds, dusting the floor with the rag mop, and wiping the windowsills with a damp cloth. It was a time I cherished because it meant I had my sister all to myself, even if she was in a hurry to get finished so that she could visit with her best friend Iva on the next farm. And so I asked her again. “Audrey, why does fall smell different than other times of the year?” Thatís when she told me it was all in my head. I certainly didnít want to argue with my sister. After all, she was much older than I

was, and as far as I was concerned was just about the smartest girl in all of Renfrew County! So I decided I would not mention it again. I would just go on believing in my heart that fall smelled differently from any other time of the year. All I had to do was stand at the back door, put my head outside and breathe deeply. The big maple tree had shed all its leaves, and I could smell them. No one could convince me that there was no smell from them it was a mixture of damp ground and dried leaves. I would fill my nostrils with the scent, and marvel, and I would wonder if I was the only one who noticed there was a difference between the smells of summer and fall. The frost would come and I knew the smell outside would change again. I knew without a doubt that the smoke from the cook stove was different once the colder weather came. At no other time of the year did I notice the wonderful smell of burning logs as I watched the smoke curl above the roof of the house. And I would wonder why. When I went into the barns at night, they certainly didnít smell like they did in the heat of the summer. The cows gave off a warmth

and it filled the barn, and the aroma of the hay from the loft wafted down. Even the straw in each stall had what I called a cold weather smell. When I mentioned this to my sister Audrey, she said it was just my imagination playing tricks on meÖall in my head, she said. The inside of our house smelled different too. The windows were shut tight, and trapped inside were the smells of gum rubbers, propped against the woodbox beside the Findlay Oval, and the musty smell of winter coats hanging at the back door. And I could smell wool. Everywhere there was wool in the hats and mitts at the ready for the winter in a basket under the bake table, there was wool. Certainly, these things were nowhere to be seen in the summer! So how could my sister Audrey say it was all in my head? I would wonder why she too didnít notice the smell of fall. By the time we were well into October, Mother would have put out the braided rugs that had spent the summer rolled up in layers of the Renfrew Mercury and kept under our beds. They too had the smell of fall on them. There would be the faint aroma of wool and

from the papers, and they would add to that special tinge to my nose that told me the season had changed the smells of summer were gone, and the smells of fall were around me. By that time of year, our summer clothes would be changed to warmer skirts and sweaters. They had been packed away in a trunk over the hot weather, with hands full of mothballs scattered between the layers. It mattered not how long Mother hung each piece out on the clothesline, she was never able to completely get rid of the smell of the mothballs. They too had the smell of fall. So, it mattered not how much my older and wiser sister Audrey said it was all in my head. I knew without a doubt, this time of year there was a special smell all around me. It came in gusts outside, and hung inside our old log house, and stayed in my nostrils, bringing me a special feeling of warmth and contentment. At that young age, I decided it was my favourite time of the year. There was no doubt about it. Fall had come at last hadnít my nose told me so?

be part of theatre, but they have a chance to participate in a different artistic form.” The inaugural Viva Voce event took place on July 3 at the Central Branch of the Kingston Frontenac Public Library. Viva Voce uses coffeehouse-style storytelling. In creating an open and safe environment, Prince and Oliver approached as many youth communities as they could. “In seeking storytellers, we tried to branch out to local high schools, universities, colleges, the LGTBQ and Aboriginal communities,” says Prince. “We want to bring representatives of youth communities together.” When the first Viva Voce installation was held it was designed as a one-off evening. But it was such a success and brought so many young people in that it became obvious that there is a need in the community. “We really want youth to hear their own stories,” says Oliver. “Stories often come from the older

Prince. “It was a casual setting but also supportive and safe.” They continued talks with Mike Sheppard of Blue Canoe and Liz Coates of KFPL, both of whom offered support. Blue Canoe Theatrical Productions provides staff, technical support, advertising and refreshments. The library provides the Wilson Room, designing and marketing materials, storytelling resources and advertising. “The library connection to this is crucial,” says Sheppard, who has now left Blue Canoe but remains local in his new position as an Administrator with the Kingston Arts Council. “We’ll make it work Liz says.” “Liz [Coates] is really jazzed about all of this,” says Oliver. “The library is a key part of Viva Voce. It says a lot about the library and community involvement.” Sheppard adds that it’s the kind of creative relationship that Blue Canoe can embrace. “It’s about being part of a larger youth group,” he says. “There are people who might not want to

his own theatre that holds storytelling nights in London.” Prince and Oliver have both been involved with Blue Canoe Theatrical Productions and were working with the company over the summer. “We came back and talked to Mike [Sheppard, the Artistic Director of Blue Canoe at the time].” Blue Canoe had been involved with the Kingston Frontenac Public Library through Theatre Kingston’s Library Chronicles last year. “As we were putting this together, we learned that the library had hired a teen and new adult librarian, Liz Coates,” says Prince. “It was a brand new position. Liz arrived two weeks before the event. It was perfect timing. She’s offering so many youth programs for the library.” Almost 100 young people showed up to the first event, which focused on the theme of Firsts or Starts. Storytelling at Viva Voce installations doesn’t necessarily involve words. Performers used spoken word, drama, dance, comedy and music to tell their stories. “There was a great energy,” says

Tiana Prince and Alexander Oliver are bringing stories to the streets—and the library. The Queen’s University grads started Viva Voce to promote storytelling by young people. Not your average storytelling, but arts installations. The Living Voice of our Youth, Telling our Stories, the tagline on a Viva Voce poster, sums up the project. “Viva Voce translates directly to the living voice,” says Prince. “It relates to the idea of oral tradition. Part of the reason we’re interested in doing this is that storytelling is fundamental to our society. But with modern day technology we’re not always present face-to-face. Storytelling is something we all still do in many ways. We’re trying to encourage youth and young adults to share and listen to live

stories. It’s not all in traditional storytelling form.” Many cultures value storytelling. In Ireland, the seanchaí (storytellers) pass history and wisdom between generations. The storytelling traditions of Hawaii and Polynesia help the community thrive and grow. In North America, we hear phrases like “Let’s shoot the breeze” or “Let’s shoot the s#@t.” In Hawaii, you’ll often hear, “let’s get together and talk story.” That’s what communication is about: sharing the stories of our lives. Young artists curate, create, operate and perform in Viva Voce. Prince and Oliver both graduated from Queen’s University with drama degrees. Prince followed that with her teacher’s college. She teaches drama in the integrated arts program at Leahurst College and dance at 5678 Dance Studio. They started Viva Voce last summer. “Tiana and I attended a theatre conference in Toronto,” says Oliver. “We met a young man who had

generation as lessons and shared experiences. But growing up, we want to hear the living voice from youth.” Prince says that it’s refreshing to hear young people’s stories. “They are amazing storytellers,” she says. “We were blown away at the last event.” The theme for the October 21 Viva Voce installation is Fears. Prince laughs about the upcoming Viva Voce storytelling arts installation as she plays with the concept of fear and the fact that Halloween is coming up. “We’re keeping oral traditions alive,” she says. “Undead.” Doors at the library will open at 6:30 on October 21, and there will be live music and light refreshments. The show starts at 7 p.m. “Each performer has a five minute window,” says Oliver. “It has to be super interesting. There are many forms of storytelling. A lot of it is best described as performance art. We’ll have a dramatic theatrical piece, poetry, dance, a singer.” “You don’t go in and know what people are going to do with their story,”

DK A E R CLIC

says Sheppard. “Performance art could be anything. The last time someone used shadow puppetry.” As for the fearful theme, Prince explains that it doesn’t mean a collection of spooky stories. “We’ll have a few in there with a scary theme,” she says. “With Fears, it is close to Halloween, and it could be silly, too. Last time when we were looking at Firsts or Starts, some people gave a really personal meaning to fresh start and others talked about the first time they tried something new.” “Or it could be things from the past that we fear,” says Oliver. Viva Voce is a free public event, although someone can make a donation if they wish. The October 21 gathering won’t be the last event. Another is in the works for November. Sheppard explains that as long as they find people who are committed Viva Voce will continue. “The curation has to be passionate,” he says. “And Tiana and Alex are passionate.” To contact Viva Voce: vivavoce. ygk@gmail.com.

Comedian Derek Edwards brings Baloney and Wine tour to Kingston By Ryland Coyne rcoyne@perfprint.ca

Entertainment – Talking about everyday happenings and making them even the least bit interesting for an audience is an art. Taking those same events and adding one’s own comedic twist to create roll-in-the-aisle laughs – now that is genius! So it is for Derek Edwards, one of Canada’s best loved and respected stand-up comics. The Timmins, Ont., native will be bringing his Baloney and Wine tour to the Grand Theatre in Kingston Sunday, Oct. 19. Showtime is 7:30 p.m. For tickets, visit the theatre box office or call 613-530-2050. “Often it’s about your travel through life,” he says of the inspiration for his material. “Sometimes it’s just your own footprints in life.” Whether it’s poking good-natured fun at a seller of ‘100 per cent human hair’ eyeing him suspiciously as he enters the store or his adventures in dog ownership, Edwards’ unique view of life brings laughter wherever he goes. So what can the local audience expect during Edwards’ 90-minute show? “It’s silliness just bordering on thoughtprovoking without actually making you think,” Edwards explains with a chuckle. “I don’t have a soapbox,” he adds, noting he’s simply looking for a good belly laugh or two. He also tries to add in a bit of local content, turning to issues of common interest like road construction or bogged down traffic “screw-

ing everybody up.” “Sometimes it works,” he says. The comedian has been perfecting his craft for more than 25 years. As he notes in a release, “Twenty-eight years in, it’s AAALLL starting to click!” There’s no doubt about it. Having earned near universal praise from colleagues and critics – Rick Mercer has even proclaimed Edwards as “the funniest man in Canada” – Edwards continues to share his humorous look at life throughout North America. He’s a regular at the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal, performs at myriad conferences, conventions and festivals, and has made appearances on a variety of TV shows. He’s the only Canadian to have won the Vail International Comedy Competition, is a twotime Gemini Award nominee and has been nominated four times and won for Best Male Standup Comic at the Canadian Comedy Awards. All that recognition could well go to one’s head but Edwards says he knows it could all disappear in an instant. “It’s humbling,” he says. “My ego’s always in check. It just takes one show to say ‘I could have been a great carpenter by now’.” He works hard at his comedy and looks forward to sharing his thoughts – and a few belly laughs – with his Kingston fans.

Derek Edwards will surely have the audience rolling in the aisles with his hilarious look at life. His Baloney and Wine tour stops in Kingston on Sunday, Oct. 19.

Things to consider before downsizing your home

The real estate market can be a seller’s friend or foe. Many sellers have a sale price in mind when they decide to sell their home, but the real estate market can be fickle, so homeowners should do their research before putting their home up for sale. Will the current market make it easier for you to get the most for your home, or will you have to settle for less than you prefer? How fast are similar homes in your area selling? When studying the real estate market, it’s also a good idea to study the market for smaller homes. If you plan on moving into a condominium but the market is not flush with properties, you might end up paying more than you want to for your new home, which might negate the savings you can expect from downsizing.

When downsizing to a smaller home, many couples realize their current furniture is unlikely to fit into a smaller home. That means couples will have to sell or donate their current furniture and then buy all new items for their new home. If it’s been a while since you purchased new furniture, you might be in for some sticker shock on your first visit to the furniture store.

Medical care

Another thing to consider regarding your furniture is which items you simply can’t live without. An antique dinner table might have been the centerpiece for your family holidays over the last several decades, but there’s no guarantee it will fit into your smaller home. You may want to pass this down to your son or daughter, but that’s only possible if he or she has the room for it. Before deciding to downsize, consider your attachment to certain items that you may or may not be able to take with you to your new home and the emotional toll that selling such items might take if you’re left with no other options.

Many older men and women must also consider the effect that moving may have on their medical care. Downsizing to a home in the country may make it harder to maintain contact with your current physician, and rural areas typically have less medical practitioners than more densely populated towns and cities. In addition, if you have been visiting the same physician for years, you may not want to move and have to start all over again with a physician who is unfamiliar with your medical history. Consider how much maintaining your existing relationship with your physician means to you, and if your next home will provide the kind of access to medical care you’re likely to need.

Proximity to family When downsizing to a smaller home, many couples move out of the suburbs and into cities or towns with more ready access to culture and restaurants. While that accessibility is great, grandparents may find that it comes at the cost of less time with

Before downsizing, consider if you’re willing to move further away from your family. If not, you likely can still find a smaller home in close proximity to your current home and any nearby family members.

But in spite of the financial impact of downsizing a home, there’s more than just money at stake for homeowners thinking of downsizing their homes. The following are a handful of factors homeowners should consider before downsizing to a smaller home.

The decision to downsize a home is often bittersweet. Many couples who downsize their homes do so after raising a family. A home might be filled with memories, but downsizing a home helps couples save more money, and that financial flexibility often allows men and women to more fully enjoy their retirement.

A french country home near the shores of Lake Ontario. This Garofalo custom home has no detail spared. Drawn from local artisan talent, the iron work accents gracing this project were a creation of Stefan Duerst. From the main floors that were imported and consisting of reclaimed tile from a cathedral in Italy to the unique lighting, some saved from the grand days at the Westin Hotel. A true luxury kitchen boasting the best equipment for your enjoyment, large principle rooms, sculpted grounds gathering around an inviting pool with outdoor kitchen facilities. State of the art security, sound and energy efficiency.
