Integrity report fallout: Mayor to seek re-vote of Capitol condo hi-rise BY BILL HUTCHINS

Flags of Remembrance A young family reads some of the plaques on the Flags of Remembrance that currently line Bayridge Drive. The 128 flags represent the 128,000 Canadian war dead and missing in action, from the Boer War to the present. The flags are marked with maple leaf shaped honour plaques, which denote the name of a war hero to act as a ‘guardian’ of the 1000 souls that one flag represents, and are flown each year in November by the Veterans Voices of Canada as a ‘promise to never forget.’ Tori Stafford/Metroland

News – Kingston Mayor Bryan Paterson is acting swiftly to address the outcome of an integrity commissioner’s report that recommends re-opening the vote to approve the downtown’s Capitol condominium. This follows a finding that Coun. Adam Candon “inadvertently” broke the city’s Code of Conduct by participating in the debate and vote over the 15 storey downtown hi-rise development, based on his prior business dealings as a real estate agent. The mayor has served notice that he will ask council Nov. 15 to reconsider IN8 Development’s application. “A reconsideration will allow a re-vote without the participation of Councillor Candon,” he stated. Candon voted in the majority to approve the controversial condo on Sept. 20. Without his involvement in a reconsideration, the building project is expected to be defeated on a 6-6 tie vote. “Unless somebody changes their vote it’ll change from a 7-6 vote in favour, to a 6-6 tie and a vote against. In which case it would have

to be the developer who challenged it at the OMB rather than the citizens,” said Coun. Jim Neill. A handful of citizens have already launched appeals with the Ontario Municipal Board to overturn council’s original decision, noting the building far exceeds the height that’s allowed at 223 Princess Street. However, the city’s planning department supports it. While the condo remains in limbo, Paterson says he wants to address the issue of public confidence in the integrity of council. In a separate motion, also to be debated Nov. 15, the mayor is seeking a full review of the policies and procedures related to conflict of interest and how it applies to the city’s Code of Conduct, a separate municipal policy that governs the conduct of elected officials. “I’m not saying the Code is too vague, but the policies and procedures to deal with conflict of interest are inadequate. Clearly, it’s not enough to just get a legal opinion from an outside lawyer,” he told reporters. Continued on page 3

Mayor to seek re-vote of Capitol condo hi-rise Continued from page 1

TICO#50007364

The mayor and other councillors are also pushing to retain an integrity commissioner on the city payroll, a position they eliminated before it could be filled early in their term. An earlier staff report indicated that hiring a commissioner would cost taxpayers about $50,000 a year, plus other fees as required. “Clearly in hindsight having seen

from the Cunningham Swan law firm on the question of whether he had a financial interest in the Capitol project, and was told that he didn’t. However, an integrity commissioner, who was hired by council after the condo vote, determined that he did have a conflict based on the broader definition under the city’s conduct code. Putting a commissioner on City Hall’s speed dial will provide councillors with access to “valuable independent and arms’ length assessments” when a conflict of interest question 613-384-0012 arises, the mayor 566 Cataraqui Woods Dr, Kingston ON K7P 2Y5 added.

Several councillors have indicated they’ll support the move to have an independent advisor on-call. “With an integrity commissioner those decisions can be made up-front by a third party, as opposed to me having solicitor-client privilege and having to justify it without being able to say why,” said Coun. Candon. He sought independent legal advice

because otherwise we’re all in jeopardy of accidentally, inadvertently being in the conflict situation.” Coun. Rob Hutchison says this is the second time in a year that council has sought outside expertise to address citizen complaints, and having

someone to advise council on integrity issues could be helpful to restore public trust in local government. He added: “At the rate we’re going we’re probably going to need it full time.”

Coun. Adam Candon breached city’s Code of Conduct in hi-rise vote: Integrity report BY BILL HUTCHINS

News – Embattled councillor Adam Candon says he isn’t sure how relevant his council role is anymore. The first-term councillor says he may have to sidestep more propertyrelated votes in order to avoid a potential conflict of interest. “I’m not sure

what I should be voting on because I really don’t know where I stand.” The frustrated councillor says he was shocked and surprised after an integrity commissioner concluded that he “inadvertently” breached the city’s Code of Conduct by taking part in the debate and vote on the Capitol condominium project, even though he had sought previous legal advice that cleared him to

vote on the project Sept. 20. Commissioner Janet Leiper found that while Coun. Candon’s own legal advice indicated he did not have a pecuniary interest in the development, the same legal opinion did not consider or discuss his broader

Neighbourhood can’t squeeze more school park space from council BY BILL HUTCHINS

News – Despite a 1,000-name petition, councillors won’t be reopening the debate over how to redevelop a former school property. Coun. Lisa Osanic introduced a motion of reconsideration on Nov. 1 to try and revise plans to carve up the former St. Joseph/ St. Mary Catholic School at 671 Brock Street into three parcels park space, affordable housing and private housing – with a goal of adding more park space to the configuration. “There’s a clear message that residents want no less park space than what’s currently there,” she said. Her motion resulted in a 7-6 vote, but it still failed to secure a two-thirds majority. Mayor Bryan Paterson and councillors Richard Allen, Ryan Boehme, Adam Candon, Liz Schell and Laura Turner voted against reopening the debate. Based on last September’s council decision, it means the city will set aside 55-per cent of the 1.5 acre property for park space on the northern portion of the site,

an affordable housing block in the southeast corner of the property occupying 24 per cent of the site, and a market housing block located in the southwest corner of the property occupying 21 percent of the site. Residents wanted 75-percent of the land for park use. They point out Williamsville is the most under-served district in the city for park land. However, Williamsville councillor Jim Neill isn’t giving up on efforts to get residents of his district more park space around the decommissioned school. His latest strategy, to be debated Nov. 15, seeks to permanently close one block of Napier Street to vehicle traffic, between Mack and Brock Streets, in order to increase the amount of parkland next to the school property and to add more parking spaces for the potential new housing nearby. “This would allow the new park to be connected with Churchill Park and you could still have a cycle and pedestrian path through it.” His motion, if approved, would ask staff to report back in early 2017 on the feasibility of closing

the street to through-traffic. Meanwhile, city staff are preparing to give one-quarter of the old school land to Kingston and Frontenac Housing Corporation for affordable mixed use housing. A notice already circulating in the neighbourhood indicates the city is seeking a zoning bylaw amendment to permit a four-storey, 32 unit building on the southeast portion of the site. A public meeting will take place Nov. 17 at 6:30 p.m. at city hall. Municipal officials are eager to move swiftly on the affordable housing component in order to obtain a $1.5 million government grant to help with the construction costs. Area residents say they do not object to placing affordable housing on some of the school property, but they don’t want

any of it sold to a private housing developer. However, the city still plans to do that in order to help finance the public housing and park space components, and to replenish the parkland reserve fund. No timeline or price has been revealed to flip the land to the private sector. “This is an innovative policy to be able to replenish our parkland fund so we can acquire more park land in the downtown core,” ex-

plained Mayor Paterson. The mayor says he voted against the reconsideration motion to expand the park space allocation in order to balance the city’s broader strategy to be able to pay for future park acquisitions. The city paid $2.2 million for 671 Brock Street earlier this year, and officials say it pretty much drained their park reserve fund in the process.

Candon breached Code of Conduct Continued from page 4

“I conclude that Councillor Candon failed to avoid a conflict of interest as between his personal business interests as a real estate agent and his public role as a City Councillor,” said the Toronto lawyer and adjudicator. Council hired Leiper to conduct a third party investigation following public complaints about the councillor’s involvement, but not until after the condo vote was taken. While Coun. Candon insisted he did not sell any condos for IN8 Developments or even know the developer personally, the commissioner says his now-defunct ‘Kingston Condo Kings’ website breached the Code’s conflict provisions which require the ‘highest degree of ethical behaviour and integrity.’ “An objective viewer of such a website would say that the Councillor was in favour of the condominium project and wanted to profit from it, before he voted on the mater,” said

Leiper in her report, which council voted to receive Nov. 1. The homemade website, developed by Coun. Candon’s business partner, was active for a year while IN8’s Capitol condo was being debated publicly and at the planning committee. Coun. Candon said he had no knowledge the business promotion website was still active and, when pointed out that it was, had it shut down just before the council vote. “Removing the website one week prior to the vote did not extinguish the conflict, it merely removed the evidence of the conflict,” said the integrity commissioner. Unlike the Ontario Municipal Act, council’s Code goes beyond having a financial interest in local matters and is much broader when it comes to governing a councillor’s behaviour. It’s also more forgiving. While Coun. Candon could’ve faced a reprimand or up to 90 days of docked pay, Leiper recommended that he face no sanctions due to his cooperation with the investigation and his pro-active attempt to seek legal advice in advance of the condo vote that resulted in a 7-6 approval of the project. He voted with the majority to approve the 15-storey building. Coun. Candon says he accepts the findings, but calls the report “unnerving” because he followed steps to get legal advice and that still wasn’t good enough. He says it makes him doubt his role

as a councillor. “I don’t think it is fair for myself or the city if it’s determined that I just happen to be in conflicts all the time. I don’t want to be in a position to be redundant.” Mayor Bryan Paterson says the city’s policies and procedures need an overhaul to restore public trust in council and to clarify the do’s and don’ts of elected officials. “What surprised me the most is that Coun. Candon followed the procedures and policies that we have in place and yet there was still a problem. We need to make changes … to make sure this sort of inadvertent breaching of the Code doesn’t happen again.” Coun. Kevin George, who was the focus of an integrity investigation earlier this year due to his involvement with a housing developer, says councillors need more help to govern themselves. “The Code has been there for a long time. I suspect a number of us have violated it over the years but we’ve never been called on it until now.” He also suggested some community members are “targeting” certain councillors when it comes to contentious issues. “For some reason, there are individuals out there looking at specific councillors and watching them closely. We’re all walking around with targets on our back.” Nearly two years after council abandoned the idea of hiring a fulltime integrity commissioner to provide on-call advice, many say they now want to reconsider that decision and get someone on retainer. “The idea was we wouldn’t be using them that often. Apparently that’s not the way it’s working out so far,” observed Coun. Rob Hutchison. In the meantime, Leiper has called on council to reopen the condo vote, but without Coun. Candon’s participation this time. Mayor Bryan Paterson says he’ll do that Nov. 15, and acknowledges the hi-rise rezoning application on the former Capitol movie theatre site at 223 Princess Street could end up being defeated on a 6-6 tie vote.


Midterm Report Card: Is council living up to community (and its own) expectations?

Comment – City councillors are approaching the halfway mark of their four-year term with a mix of accomplishments and acrimony. The term thus far for Kingston’s 96th mayor and the 12 councillors – one of the youngest groups to ever lead the city - has generally avoided the open divisiveness and infighting that plagued previous councils. They have largely followed the pledge delivered in first term mayor Bryan Paterson’s inaugural speech to incorporate a new level of respect and teamwork during the council meetings to create “independent thinking, conviction and decision making.” In the new brand of politics, the mayor emphasized “an atmosphere that encourages intelligent and reasoned debate.” The first year of the term gave the mostly rookie group a chance to establish a long to-do list of common priorities that they want to accomplish, such as creating a smart economy that’s open for business with a youth employment strategy and increased assessment growth, plus other strategies wrapped around creating a green and liveable city, infrastructure investment and fostering open government.

But the second year has repeatedly tested their resolve through a host of controversial decisions, namely; reforming KEDCO without reviewing its past spending of tax dollars, rejecting a high school study at the Memorial Centre, approving the downtown’s 15 storey Capitol condo, expanding the airport with no guarantee of increased business, and building more housing on the old school property at 671 Brock Street. Some of the policy decisions rubbed neighbourhoods the wrong way, even though we’re told it’s for the greater good of the city. This has also spawned levels of mistrust or open challenges from the community. Of course, no council can ever please everyone all the time. But OMB appeals, integrity investigations, and thick petitions all speak to a sense of discontent that councillors and staff may not be listening to community feedback as much as they like to claim. Some say the city is more focused on public relations than public consultation. And, in some cases, seeking public input after decisions have been made. Public acrimony this could set the stage for a rough ride in the final two years of the term, especially as councillors face more tough decisions be-

tween now and the October 2018 election. Decisions on the way include; whether to push ahead with the third bridge crossing construc-

divided city/separation debate. Kingston has now grown up and not fretting over east vs. west or downtown vs. everyone else. It’s one city, and councillors no longer seem pre-occupied feuding over whose turf is more important. To grade the mayor and his council’s overall performance, I’d give them an A for teamwork, B-minus for listening to the community with meaningful results, B for efforts to find tax savings, new revenue sources and more assessment growth, C for integrity after an unprecedented two reports that questioned a councillor’s conduct, and a C-minus for following the development guidelines of their own Official Plan. Of course, with two years to go this council still has plenty of time for improvement on the lower marks while maintaining a spirit of political cooperation.

In Our Opinion

Stop complaining, have your say

Tori Stafford tstafford@metroland.com

Column – Continuing with the topic I raised in a previous column, I would like to draw attention to a project seeking public input, and away from the ‘should they or shouldn’t they have hired an integrity commissioner’ council issue everyone feels the need to weigh in on. As I pointed out before, Kingstonians have a habit of voicing opposition to council decisions after they’ve taken place, and the City, as a whole, it seems, has a way of drawing out the consulting, studying and weighing of options that leads to projects stalling, and more and more people weighing in – a vicious cycle, to say the least, and one that finds people spewing angry and sometimes hateful comments online about local politics and politicians. A majority of large projects in Kingston offer the opportunity for the public to have their say, and one such project is at that phase now – and it’s one we’ve all been humming and hawing over for a while already. What to do with the former Kingston Penitentiary and Ports-

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

It is critical that council continue to push forward with the third crossing Why build a third crossing? To address the inability of the City’s downtown system of roads to accommodate the flow of traffic currently using the LaSalle Causeway. Originally the traffic jams on Highways 2 and 15 were regarded as a rush hour issue. However, the traffic using these single two lane roads into and out of the City is now more or less steady all day. Widening Highway 15 and/or constructing a roundabout at the intersection of Highways 15 and 2 won’t do much to address this problem. And, we are still left with a road that is closed when the bridge is up. So, what about Highway 401? There are several convenient intersections leading into and out of the City off the 401. However, there is still a significant population living northeast of the city who use 15 as their way into the city, especially anyone working at CFB Kingston. So for these motorists, Highway 401 is not an attractive downtown link despite improved access ramps, And certainly for traffic originating in the Rideau Center neighbourhood (Gore Road); when you consider having to drive north on Highway 15 to the 401 west to Montreal street and south to a destination in the city center then having to retrace your steps to get back home, the 401 can hardly be regarded as a preferred substitute for the Third crossing. Unfortunately, the 401 is prone to accidents that shut it down for hours. The Third Crossing represents the ideal detour. What are the fiscal and environmental consequences of the Third Crossing? In terms of fiscal considerations, it wasn’t that many years ago, prior to amalgamation when the residents of the former Pittsburgh Township, (now Kingston East) enjoyed one of the lowest Municipal Tax Rates in the Province. This was because the cost of administering the Township was largely covered by GILT (Grant in Lieu Taxes) the township received from the Federal Government. After amalgamation that money found its way into the City’s coffers and Kingston East taxes went up a corresponding amount. All of that to say that becoming a Kingston suburb has been an expensive experience for the Kingston East residents who have stood by and contributed their taxes while the City has undertaken ‘the Big Dig’, widening John Counter Blvd. the Williamsville project, Ravensview, etc. Surely, it can be argued that Kingston East has paid its dues and should be entitled to an even handed evaluation of the Third Crossing, not as a local neighbourhood initiative, but rather as an in-

tegral component of the Cities infrastructure. In terms of financial help with the new bridge it’s worth remembering that not that long ago both Highways 2 and 15 were Provincial Highways. In terms of the environmental impact, ideally the third crossing will help reduce the exhaust generated by the idling motors of the vehicles that form the traffic jams that occur at rush hour when motor-

ists attempt to cross the causeway from both directions. In the longer term, hopefully electric technology will mitigate this problem. However, electric cars will still need to travel on improved roads. A third crossing will also provide a safe dedicated lane for cyclists who now use the dangerous causeway, and certainly it will provide an alternative direct route for emergency vehicles that otherwise must attempt to

clearly on track to become “shovel ready” It is critical that Council continue to support this initiative through to completion and overcome a highway situation that if not remedied now, after all these years of false starts and studies, could only be viewed as a colossal embarrassment. Thank You Hugh Carmichael.

navigate a road that is often blocked. It will also provide the City with a third east west corridor across its breadth by connecting the now being improved John Counter Blvd. with Gore Road on the Kingston East side of the river. Rather than a standalone project the Third Crossing is an integral component of Kingston’s transportation infrastructure. The Third Crossing has been on the City’s agenda for years. It is now

munity members gathered for the launch of the 2016 Tree of Hope Campaign. One of the longest running Christmas appeal campaigns, the Tree of Hope collects donations of funds and gifts to distribute to families and children in need throughout Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington. Last year, the campaign helped 900 children and families with gifts of toys, food, clothing, household items, and other needs, explained Steve Woodman, executive director of the local Family and Children’s Services. “We’re really here to help families and a lot of our families have a lot of trouble at special events like Christmas,” he said. “This is a time for the community to rally our support around families that are in need of help.” Heather Morrison, chair of the Board of Directors for Family and Children’s Services of Frontenac, Lennox and Addington, echoed Woodman’s sentiments and highlighted the way the Tree of Hope campaign embraces the Christmas spirit.

Tree of Hope campaign launches Continued from page 10

“There are many ways we share our passion for helping families and kids in this community, and perhaps the Tree of Hope is the best expression of it,” Morrison expressed. “The reason why this campaign is so important is it shows that Christmas is about giving, rather than just getting, and that the families in this community who really need help will not be alone at Christmas.” Each year, the Tree of Hope campaign recognizes community leaders for their outstanding Christmas spirit and their exemplary contributions to the community. This year, an individual and a community group were recognized, naming both Dr. Phil Carney and the staff of the Macdonald-Cartier Provincial Building as honorary co-chairs of the campaign. Dr. Phil Carney, a psychologist, was honoured for his work with children in foster care and his

years of dedication to working with Family and Children’s Services. Carney also serves as the deacon of St. Paul the Apostle Roman Catholic Church. The staff at the Macdonald-Cartier Building were recognized for their tireless yearround efforts to raise funds and toy donations for the Tree of Hope Campaign. Staff at the provincial building hold a variety of fundraisers throughout the year, and are a major contributor to the Tree of Hope Campaign, Woodman explained. Senior Chairman of the Tree of Hope Campaign, Santa Claus, made a special trip to Kingston for the launch of the campaign, and recognized the efforts of Family and Children’s Services in delivering Christmas to so many in the area – a cause close to his heart. “This campaign by the Family and Children’s Services really helps so many, many kids, and these kids really do need help – a lot of help from the community,” Mr. Claus said. “I want to thank everyone who is part of this beautiful campaign for doing a wonderful, wonderful job.” The campaign is running two storefronts this year at both the Kingston and Napanee Family and Children’s Services locations. The public is invited to contact the Tree of Hope Campaign at 613-545-3227 ext. 3324 for details on providing a gift for a child in need, or to make a donation by cheque or credit card. A detailed overview of how and what to give is also available online at www.HelpTreeofHope.ca. “We’ve been helping families at Christmas in Lennox and Addington since we opened in 1894,” Woodman expressed. “Today we’re asking for the help of the public: We’re asking for your help in helping bring Christmas home for the folks in our community that really need it.”

Twelve new study rooms at Stauffer heighten indigenous presence at Queen’s BY TORI STAFFORD tstafford@metroland.com

News – Situated on traditional Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee territory, Queen’s University hasn’t historically presented much visible representation of this heritage or the indigenous presence on campus… but that’s all changing. On Friday, Oct. 28, the University officially opened 12 new study rooms within Stauffer Library, each of which has been given an indigenous name. Inside each room is a painting, commissioned the University’s by Four Directions Aboriginal Student Centre in partnership with Corrections Canada. These paintings were created by indigenous artists at Joyceville Institution, and reflect the names each room has been given. While the need for more study space within the library had previously been identified, the names and paintings came about thanks to an idea from Janice Hill, director of Four Directions, as part of the largest objective she takes on in her role. “My mandate has largely been developing a visibility on campus,” said Hill, noting that the opportunities for this kind of project only come along every so often. Hill had noted the way another university named their rooms, sometimes in honour of individuals, and some of which had indigenous names. She brought that idea to Queen’s and began looking for a way to do so on campus last spring. “It just so happened that the library was going through a planning process and looking at changing the use of some of the rooms,” Hill explained.

“They thought it was a marvellous idea, and they were on board immediately.” Increasing the visibility of indigenous presence on campus is an important aspect of the work Hill does at Queen’s for a variety of reasons, she said, but perhaps the most important reason is to encourage a larger presence of selfidentifying indigenous students, she expressed. “Aboriginal and indigenous students go where they see themselves represented, and right now if you walk through Queen’s campus, you’re not going to see representation of anything indigenous, really,” said Hill, noting that the dozen study rooms at Stauffer are a pleasant change to that trend.

The 12 study rooms at Stauffer Library were given indigenous names. Seven were named after the Seven Grandfather Teachings in Anishinaabe: -

“Part of it is increasing visible things within the environment, but it’s also increasing curriculum so it includes indigenous knowledge and encouraging any aboriginal faculty or staff to self identify because what we have heard through research is that aboriginal students will go where there are aboriginal faculty, regardless of what discipline they’re in.� This increased presence is crutial to recruitment, retainment and the success of aboriginal students, something which has been a key priority for the University for the last several years, Hill said. When she began her work as director of Four Directions in 2010, only five students came into the student body under the aboriginal admissions policy that year. Six years later, that number is up to 65 students, she said. These new rooms and the plans Hill and her colleagues at Four Directions have for further projects to increase indigenous visibility will hopefully further the increase of the indigenous student population at Queen’s, Hill expressed. The commissioned artwork is a “beautiful way to increase that visibility,� Hill said, noting that the artists come from very diverse indigenous backgrounds. Working on the project proved to be a positive experience for those artists, as well.

“I want to preserve my culture, almost like I am a warrior saving my people. It’s a good feeling; that’s what these paintings are giving me,� artist Austin Elijah, 25, said of the project in his artist statement. Elijah is from Southwold, Ontario, Oneida Nation. “I am proud and honoured to be asked to use my talents from the Creator in this way. To Queen’s University, I am so thankful.�

Meistersingers bring energy, hilarity to stage with 9 to 5: The Musical BY TORI STAFFORD tstafford@metroland.com

Events – “I’ve always used my femininity and sexuality as a weapon and a tool… But that’s just natural.” – Dolly Parton It’s no secret that Dolly Parton was one of the first soldiers in the ‘Girl Power’ army, and Parton’s own debut into the world of musicals embodies that spirit with both comedy and charm. Much like the movie that came before it, 9 to 5: The Musical takes on a topic so many can relate to – discontent with the boss in the workplace – and how women working together can bring about change, no matter how difficult or ridiculous the situation might be. Set in the 1970s, 9 to 5: The Musical challenges gender stereotypes in the way only Dolly would, and has bowled over audiences from Broadway to Manchester with its sitcom-esque humour. And that’s precisely why Kingston Meistersingers choose the musical for their 2016 production, explained Liane Penny, president of the board for the community theatre group and producer of 9 to 5: The Musical. “We had just kind of come off doing a pretty heavy, serious show, Jesus Christ Superstar, last year… so we wanted to see if we could find something to counterbalance that,”

Liane Penny (left) as Violet Newstead, Kyli Ball as Judy Bernly, and Wendy Bouwma as Doralee Rhodes make up the leading ladies in the upcoming Kingston Meistersingers production of Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5: The Musical. The Tony Award-winning musical mirrors the 1980 comedy movie, and will run from November 17 to 27 at the Octave Theatre. Tori Stafford/Metroland

Penny said of selecting which show Meistersingers would stage this year. That’s when the theatre company noticed that the rights to 9 to 5: The Musical were available for licensing. “We just thought ‘This is really great.’ It covers a whole wide rage of ages in the cast, which is something we always aim to do, and it’s upbeat and funny,” said Penny. “And then, of course, a bunch of us are of a certain generation where we all remember the movie and how hilarious it was.” With the crew members selected

over the summer and the casting calls filled in late August, Kingston Meistersingers have been rehearsing non-stop since the first week of September. While the show is very dialogue-heavy, includes a number of different songs and involves some complex choreography, the production is shaping up well for its Nov. 17 debut at the Octave Theatre, Penny said, noting that a lot of that success is down to the incredible cast. “The cast is fantastic! It’s a mix of some seasoned Kingston performers who have been in a number of

shows with us, and then some new people who have never been on stage before and are totally excited to be in a show,” she said, noting that for this particular production, Meistersingers chose to cast only those in their teens or older, due to the slightly PG-13 content. “I feel like it’s really rolling now, which makes me feel great… It’s all coming together!” The show focuses around ‘Consolidated Incorporated,’ where Judy Bernly (played by Kyli Call) enters the workforce after her husband runs away with his secretary. Penny herself fills the roll of Violet Newstead, a widow with four children whose 12-year tenure at Consolidated shows in her disdain for the meaningless tasks handed down to her by misogynistic egocentric boss, Franklin Hart Jr. (played by Dave Wilkins). Hart insists on fostering the rumour he is sleeping with his secretary, Doralee Rhodes (Parton’s role in the movie, and played by Wendy Bouwma, AKA Wendy Boomer of Country 93.5 FM), despite her consistent dismissal of his advances. As the females in the Consolidated office grow weary of their boss’ chauvinism and needless firings, the ladies join forces to remove Hart from the office, and make their own mark on the workplace. “I am sure there are a lot of

people who can relate to either having had a boss they didn’t quite love, or being disgruntled in a work place. Probably, when you were in that scenario, you often wondered why you sat there just gritting your teeth, thinking, ‘If I could just be the boss myself…’” Penny said of the all-toofamiliar storyline. “And that’s what this show is: it’s like you actually finally get a chance to live out that fantasy. These ladies actually do it! They take control and the turn the tables and they actually make a difference.” With a strong cast that promises to entertain and have audiences roar with laughter, Kingston Meistersingers production of 9 to 5: The Musical is “a hilarious romp,” with “a wide variety of different music styles,” Penny said. “It’s such a fun show, so I think audiences are really, really going to enjoy it.” 9 to 5: The Musical runs from Thursday, Nov. 17 to Sunday, Nov. 27, with six evening shows and two Sunday matinees. Tickets are $22 for students and youth, and $28 for adults, with all Thursday night tickets available for $20. The production will be staged at the Octave Theatre, and all evening shows will have a cash bar. To find out more or for tickets, go to www.meistersingers.ca.


Meow open: Southpaw Cat Café welcomes Kingstonians BY MANDY MARCINIAK mandymarciniak@metroland.com

News – When Scott Fardella came up with the idea of opening a cat café in Kingston he expected people would be excited, but he never expected the level of excitement he has seen over the past six months. “I started in May and I had a couple hundred likes on Facebook and now I just hit 2,500 and we aren’t even open yet,” he explained. “It has been amazing. It is super validating. People are super excited and really enthusiastic and I get messages everyday.” Southpaw Cat Café opened Saturday, Nov. 5, and Fardella was looking forward to finally welcoming the community into the space. The café, located at 749 Bayridge Drive, has been a work in progress for Fardella since the middle of September and he is happy with the progress he has made. “It is crazy how quickly everything has come together,” he said, noting that he is particularly happy with the location of the café. “I was looking downtown for a while and I looked at a number of spaces but either the size of the space didn’t work or the landlord didn’t want a restaurant in the space. Then this space became available and it was just the perfect size and a good location with the subdivisions in the area and the high school across the street and I thought it was a perfect fit.” The space is in the back corner of the plaza and while it appears small from the outside it is actually quite large. The café has a separate area for ordering food and drinks and the cats occupy

a special room located through a set of double doors. “The vestibule is regulated by public health,” explained Fardella. “It also prevents the cats from escaping though.” Food and beverages are self serve in the café area as staff are unable to serve food in the same space as the cats. “You can order at the counter and then when it is ready you can come out and get it and bring it into the space,” said Fardella. “People can decide for themselves whether or not they want to eat with the cats, but I imagine that is why most people are coming is to enjoy the space with the cats.” The café also has a few rules that Fardella had to put in place for liability and insurance reasons and he was a bit hesitant to reveal them to his growing fan base on Facebook. “I was a bit nervous to post it,” he said. “The biggest rule is that children under 10 won’t

Rescue. Fardella welcomed three of the cats into the space late last week and he was happy to see how well they adjusted. “They are loving the space,” he said. “Although they make it harder for me to work. I just want to play with them all day.” Soon there will be plenty of community members to occupy their time and Fardella is looking forward to seeing the space filled with people and cats. “My favourite part of all of this is now and seeing it all come together,” he said. “I’m really looking forward to seeing others enjoy it too.” For more information about the café visit their Facebook page or look for them on Instagram.

Cecil ends up with a few minutes of fame Miss Crosby, our teacher at the Northcote school, Mother thought should be made a saint when she passed. But that couldn't happen, my sister Audrey said, because she

meant a short trip to the outhouse. "Please Miss," Beatrice said to get Miss Crosby's attention. She raised her head from her folded arms, and she wasn't crying, she was overcome with fits of laughter. It wasn't the first time Cecil had cracked his toes at the Northcote School, but it was the first time Miss Crosby had sent him to the stool. Never one to miss an opportunity to give the school a chance to learn something, she ordered Cecil to take off his gum-rubbers and show everyone how he was able to crack his toes. Well, there he sat, folded on the stool, with his bare feet stretched out before him, and try as he might, he couldn't muster up one crack! We all sat in utter silence waiting. Nothing happened. The morning was wearing on, and Miss Crosby wisely decided to bring things back to order. At recess outside, everyone gathered around Cecil like he was the Mayor of Renfrew. He loved being on centre stage and went on to explain this amazing feat. The reason he couldn't perform for Miss Crosby, he said, was because he could only crack his toes inside his gum-rubbers. And there he sat on the school steps, cracking his toes inside his gum-rubbers, enjoying his few minutes of fame at the Northcote School, before Miss Crosby appeared at the door with the big brass bell.

heard all over the school. Cecil had done it again! He had this talent of cracking his toes when he was wearing his gumrubbers, and when he wasn't wearing stockings, which was usually the case. The noise echoed in his gumrubbers like a slap with an open hand on a 2X4. Miss Crosby rolled her eyes skyward, but not a sound came out of her mouth. The whole room was silent. "Cecil," she said. And she sounded like she had just run all the way from the Barr Line. "Cecil, I heard that. In fact, they probably heard it at Briscoes General Store. Stand up and apologize to the class." Tall and rail thin, Cecil unfolded himself from his seat. He said nothing. Miss Crosby ordered him to the low stool that sat in the corner at the front of the room. This is where anyone was sent who misbehaved, hadn't done their homework, or generally tried Miss Crosby's patience. Cecil folded himself onto the stool, and when he had settled down, his knees were under his chin, and his hands were resting on the floor. He looked exactly like the big chimpanzee we saw when the circus came to the fairgrounds one time in Renfrew. Well, it wasn't long until everyone in the Northcote School was in hysterics. Miss Crosby folded the Bible, flopped down on her chair behind her desk, and put her head down on her folded arms. I thought she was crying, because her shoulders were shaking. The Briscoe twins, who dressed alike, finished each other's sentences and did everything together, put up their hands with one finger in the air, which

Voyageurs and Golden Hawks battle to a 1-1 draw The Kingston Voyageurs battled to a 1-1 draw with the Trenton Golden Hawks at the Invista Centre on Thursday Nov. 3. It was a strong defensive effort by both sides with excellent goaltending by Kingston’s Ryan Glander and Trenton’s Chris Janzen. Ben Scheel scored for Trenton in the first period assisted by Rex Moe. In the second period Cole Beckstead replied for the Vees assisted by Colin Van Den Hurk and Andrew Suriyuth. Neither team was able to score in the third period or the two subsequent overtimes although both sides had some excellent chances. The Golden Hawks out shot the Voyageurs 35-25 on the night.

An early winter whine Although there are varied opinions on when it’s appropriate to start playing Christmas music and put up decorations, it’s never too early for a meditation on a dislike of winter. To be more accurate, it’s the cold that deserves the rant.

Our beloved editor, Hollie Pratt, now on maternity leave, and I alternate who gets to write the whiny column about winter. Since she’s away, I’ve got dibs on the cask of whine. This column isn’t usually delivered until sometime in the new year. This year is special. Having just returned from a morning’s long walk with the dog, in the rain, and the cold, I thought I’d get a jump on the season of frigid temperatures and write my slanderous attack on the winter early.

We remember the courage, service, and sacrifice of Canada’s veterans. We also remember the still-serving men and women of Canada’s Armed Forces – many far from home but always close to our hearts. They bring honour to themselves, their loved ones, and our nation.

An early winter whine Continued from page 26

It has been recommended by friends that if I simply put on some weight, I wouldn’t feel the cold so much. I just know that wouldn’t work. Instead of being skinny and cold I’d end up fat and cold. Whether I’m in Kingston or New York City, I know there will be regular massages to tide me through winter’s chill. Here in Kingston places like Elements Natural Therapies and spa and massage therapists like Alyssa Green at More to Life Kingston (moretolifekingston.com) offer comfort and healing year round. Much to my pleasant surprise, I understand that the fine folks at Elements have added a lovely new touch in their spa: heated massage tables. Seriously. Bless their warm little hearts. In New York City, the Tui Na specialists at a place called Foot Heaven, deep in the heart of Chinatown, always turn up the heat. I can easily spend 90 to 120 minutes under their pounding hands. The best part? The treatment begins with me sitting in a lazy boy chair as they warm my feet in herb infused steaming water. Another great warming activity is to use the oven a lot (there’s that fire element again). Bake treats. That’s good for bonus points. Tasty goodies and oven heat. In fact, before starting to write, I’d just finished baking an early morning batch of granola. Double benefit. Yummy food and, because I leave the over door open when I’m finished, more heat filling the

home. Spend time in local shops. You’ll find pampering treats at places like the Body Shop and Bath & Body Works (Cataraqui Centre). Visit Wayfarer Books (85 Princess Street) or other local book shops to pick up something to read in your favorite warm spot. Check out Minotaur at 78 Princess Street. They sell the most unique board games imaginable, which, heaven on earth, you play indoors in the winter. You’ve also got all the classics like chess, Scrabble, backgammon. And never forget the joy of charades. It involves movement, and that creates warmth. This is good. You can visit the websites of the Grand Theatre (kingstongrand. ca) and the City of Kingston (cityofkingston.ca), The Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning the Isabel Centre (tettcentre.org) for the Performing Arts (theisabel. ca), to see what’s going on during the winter months. If you’ve ever wanted to learn a new skill, you could take classes in weaving, pottery, jewelrymaking or dance at the Tett. You can borrow a musical instrument from Joe’s M.I.L.L. and see if it’s something you’d like to go delve into. If you like outdoor activities, the region has scores of winter activities, from Kingston and Picton to Brockville and Perth.

Lego Inventioneers Day Community members came out for Lego Inventioneers Day, at the Pump House Steam Museum, Oct. 29. Several stations were set up for the family fun day which promoted STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, mathematics) in a fun and interactive way through numerous activities including; building the tallest tower, making a kaleidoscope to explore geometry, symmetry and reflections, Lego robotics, Lego construction and a display of Meccano and Lego models.

Through adversity, our most honourable flourish.

Loyalist Flowers staff ‘petal it forward’ across Kingston Nov. 3 may have started as a gloomy day, but Loyalist Flowers did their best to brighten it for many Kingstonians. Staff from the flower shop, located in Amherstview, set up in various parts of the city handing out flowers to passers by. Each recipient was given two flowers with a note that asked them to keep one for themselves and give another to someone special or even just a stranger who could use a smile. “Half the joy is receiving flowers, but the other half is giving flowers,” said Loyalist Flowers owner Shelly Murphy while handing out the individually wrapped roses in Market Square. “The response has been so overwhelming. It is incredible. People think we are selling flowers so when we give them to them for free, they are so excited.” Over the course of the day, Murphy and her staff moved from Market Square to University Avenue and Union Street to continue ‘petalling it forward’ and then finished the day at the Rio Can Centre in the west end at 2:30 p.m. “It has been so rewarding and it is so nice giving to members of the community and seeing the smiles on their faces,” said Murphy.

Encourage participation in community activities and events to mark Canada’s 150th anniversary of Confederation; Inspire a deeper understanding about the people, places and events that shape our country and our communities; Build vibrant and health communities with the broadest possible engagement of all Canadians, including indigenous peoples, groups that reflect our cultural diversity, youth, and official language minorities. “Within those broad themes, we would love to see applications for projects that are particularly relevant to Kingston, and address identified needs, such as our three ‘smart and caring community’ priorities: Getting Started, Food Security, and

Community Engagement,” Bailey expressed, referring to the areas identified as priorities based on data from CFKA’s Vital Signs community reports over the past few years. “In particular, I think this funding offers a great opportunity to get some really interesting and creative community engagement projects going – things that will encourage people to connect with each other and their community.” Bailey also noted a particular subject matter she would like to see addressed through the projects. “I hope we receive some strong applications for projects focused on reconciliation,” she said. “With a significant First Nations population, this is particularly relevant in our community and I think it would be very meaningful to have Canada 150 funding support activities to acknowledge

How to save enough for a down payment on a house A home is the most costly thing many people will ever buy. The process of buying a home can be both exciting and nervewracking. One way to make the process of buying a home go more smoothly is to save enough money to put down a substantial down payment. Saving for a down payment on a home is similar to saving for other items, only on a far grander scale. Many financial planners and real estate professionals recommend prospective home buyers put down no less than 20 percent of the total cost of the home they’re buying. Down payments short of 20 percent will require private mortgage insurance, or PMI. The cost of PMI depends on a host of variables, but is generally between 0.3 and 1.5 percent of the original loan amount. While plenty of homeowners pay PMI, buyers who can afford to put down 20 percent can save themselves a considerable amount of money by doing so. Down payments on a home tend to be substantial, but the following are a few strategies prospective home buyers can employ to grow their savings with an eye toward making a down payment on their next home. • Decide when you want to

buy. The first step to buying a home begins when buyers save their first dollar for a down payment. Deciding when to buy can help buyers develop a saving strategy. If buyers decide they want to buy in five years away, they will have more time to build their savings. If buyers want to buy within a year, they will need to save more each month, and those whose existing savings fall far short of the 20 percent threshold may have to accept paying PMI. • Prequalify for a mortgage. Before buyers even look for their new homes, they should first sit down with a mortgage lender to determine how much a mortgage they will qualify for. Prequalifying for a mortgage can make the home buying process a lot easier, and it also can give first-time buyers an idea of how much they can spend. Once lenders prequalify prospective buyers, the buyers can then do the simple math to determine how much they will need to put down. For example, preapproval for a $300,000 loan means buyers will have to put down $60,000 to meet the 20 percent down payment threshold. In that example, buyers can put down less than $60,000, but they will then have to pay PMI. It’s important for buyers to

understand that a down payment is not the only costs they will have to come up with when buying a home. Closing costs and other fees will also need to be paid by the buyers. • Examine monthly expenses. Once buyers learn how much mortgage they will qualify for, they will then see how close they are to buying a home. But prospective buyers of all means can save more each month by examining their monthly expenses and looking for ways to save. Buyers can begin by looking over their recent spending habits and then seeing where they can spend less. Cutting back on luxuries and other unnecessary spending can help buyers get closer to buying their next home. • Avoid risky investments. Some times it’s great to take risks when investing, but risk should be avoided when saving for a down payment on a home. Traditional vehicles like certificates of deposit, or CDs, and savings accounts can ensure the money buyers are saving for their homes is protected and not subject to market fluctuations. Saving enough to make a down payment on a home can be accomplished if buyers stay disciplined with regard to saving and make sound financial decisions.

Landscaping needs vary by season Judging a home by its appearance is often par for the home-buying course. In fact, according to the National Association of Realtors®, 49 percent of buying decisions are made from the street. An appealing home exterior suggests the homeowner takes pride in his or her home and wants to make every effort to maintain that home. Curb appeal involves various components a home’s exterior, but beautiful landscaping can make a home stand out. While maintaining a lawn is something many homeowners may think is exclusive to spring and summer, lawn maintenance is really a yearround endeavor. The following steps can help anyone maintain curb appeal no matter the season.

Summer Summer landscaping is all about maintaining what was established in the spring. Regular mowing, weeding and trimming can keep a landscape manicured. Other than drought, weeds are perhaps the biggest lawn and garden nuisance to a landscape in the summertime. Black medic, carpetweed, knotweed, mallow and prostate spurge are some of the weeds that will crop up during the summer. Seeds begin to germinate as soil warms up. According to the University of Maryland Extension, control with a broadleaf postemergent herbicide applied when the weed is actively growing will help prevent weeds from suffocating lawns.

Spring Spring is a season of renewal when plants and trees will begin to look fresh and green once more. Spring maintenance includes applying fertilizer to lawns, replenishing mulch in planting beds, creating more pronounced edges around the lawn and garden beds, and testing soil. Some homeowners like to apply a weedprevention product in the spring as well. Spring is a good time to plant annuals that will add a pop of color to the landscape. For those concerned about permanent planting, container gardening allows homeowners to move around planters in a configuration that works best for them.

Autumn Autumn is often a forgotten season when it comes to maintaining a landscape. However, fall is a key time to keep landscapes in order. According to the landscaping resource LoveYourLandscape. com, fall is the ideal time to tend to a lawn that just endured summer heat. Seeding and fertilizing can ensure a stronger lawn come next spring. Perennials should be pruned and cut back. Raking leaves will help keep the property looking presentable.

4

Winter One of the ways to maintain an attractive landscape throughout winter is to install plants that can

Kingston Homefinder.ca - Thursday, November 10, 2016

survive the colder temperatures. Winterberry is a cousin of holly, but loses its leaves in the fall. The bright red berries can be a stark contrast to the white of winter snowfall. Camellia is an evergreen that blooms from fall to early

spring and looks like pink roses. Heather is a popular plant in the United Kingdom, but is growing in popularity on this side of the Atlantic as well. The Home Depot says this plant blooms all year and offers beautiful flowers in summer

and fall. In winter, the thick foliage makes for an appealing contrast to the more delicate blooms of other winter plants. Maintaining a landscape through the seasons makes a home attractive all year long.

Roofing materials transform the look and functionality of a home When renovating a home, homeowners may not give ample thought to the roof unless there is a leak or another sign of damage. It’s easy to forget about the roof when materials are working properly. Some people put off replacing or repairing a roof simply because of the costs of such undertakings. However, the right roof can improve the appearance of a home and provide protection against the elements, potentially preventing damage to a home’s interior as well. Roofing materials have evolved over the years, but the most common type of roofing material is the asphalt shingle. These shingles are a relatively modern invention, with the first “asphalt prepared roofing” serving as a forerunner to asphalt shingles, appearing in the late 1800s. Roofing materials will need to meet a particular area’s fire codes and must be able to withstand any extreme weather conditions common to the geographic region where the home is located. Certain roofing materials may be heavier than others and may require special

framing. Work with an experienced roofing contractor to learn more about your available options and to shed light on any special installation or maintenance issues to consider before construction begins. The following are just some of the roofing materials homeowners may want to consider. • Asphalt shingles: The most popular roofing material, asphalt shingles are guaranteed for 20 to 30 years, which helps solidify this choice as a smart-value product. For some homeowners, a downside to shingles is that, because they are so popular, they’re seen everywhere. So those homeowners looking to make a unique statement with their roofing materials may want to choose a different option. • Wood shingles and shakes: A wood roof is another possibility, but some homeowners find wood roofs require more money to install and more effort to maintain than roofs made with other materials. Wood shingles are sawn from logs and are thin, while shakes are thick, rough and formed by being split from logs.

• Clay or concrete tiles: These tiles add texture and elegance to a roof, says HGTV. Clay or concrete tiles are very durable and quite heavy, so they must be installed by a professional. These tiles can make Mediterranean-, Spanish- or mission-style houses stand out even more. Their long-lasting nature can help offset the price tag. • Metal: Metal roofs are usually made from fully recyclable steel, aluminum or alloy, making them an eco-friendly choice. Metal roofs also reflect the sun’s rays and can be an energy-efficient option in hot climates. • Slate: One of the longestlasting materials available in roofing products, slate is fireproof and comes in various natural colors and shapes. Once installed, slate requires very little maintenance. However, slate can be cost-prohibitive because its delicacy and weight requires extra roofing support and professional installation. Changing a roof means years of improved performance and an Replacing or renovating a roof can be an impactful home instant uplift to the look of a home. improvement project.
