Public Works faces political heat over costs to bolster winter clearing service By Bill Hutchins Reporter

Kingston Heritage – City councillors are bracing for the annual flurry of phone calls and emails from constituents about the speed and quality of snow plowing service this winter, and they want assurances that public works crews can keep up. “We, as a city, have grown and we are not expanding the budget to accommodate that,� warned Coun. Rob Hutchison. He is concerned that a new staff report on the city’s ability to maintain its own snow clearing standards does not provide enough information to help councillors decide whether service needs to improve. “I am disappointed in this report,� he said. Public works director Damon Wells tried to reassure councillors the service review is ongoing and that operational needs will be evaluated in the current winter season. “We need to look at our capabilities through this winter and make a determination from that.� The review of snow clearing standards, triggered by a council motion last March, came on the heels of Kingston’s worst winter season in over 20 years. The previous council asked for a top-tobottom review of the city’s snow clearing capabilities, plus detailed information about costs that could be added to the 2015 budget to improve service. A staff report presented to the Dec. 9 meeting of the environment, infrastructure and transportation committee revealed that public works is struggling to maintain the city’s pre-established standards of clearing sidewalks, while street clearing operations are also under pressure due to the addition of 23 kilometres of road lanes and 60 ki-

KINGSTON

Kingston author spins ripping good yarn of historical fiction By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

News - Local author Ken Cuthbertson prefers to refer to his latest book, Memoirs of the Hon. Henry E. MacFutter, as an “entertainment” rather than a novel but that doesn’t mean you won’t learn a thing or two when reading it. The story chronicles the adventures of the title character, a fictional 19th century misfit who is shipped off to Kingston from Montreal by his wealthy father to train as a lawyer under none other than Sir John A Macdonald. “He’s not fit to be a doctor, he’s not fit to be a minister, he’s not even fit to be a politician,” Cuthbertson laughs. “The only thing left is for him to be a lawyer, so his father sends him to Kingston and that’s the premise of the book.” Macdonald serves as MacFutter’s nemesis - a quasi-villain, if you will. “Macdonald, who is a drinker, a womanizer, a wanna-be politician on the make, and a bit of a scoundrel, spends considerable time trying to figure out how to get MacFutter out of his life . . . by means fair or foul,” Cuthbertson says. He explains that the inspiration for a MacFutter-type character was born in his brain decades ago, thanks to the influence of his old colleague, Scottish author George MacDonald Fraser, who wrote famous historical novels featuring a character called Flashman, as well as

the screenplay for the James Bond movie Octopussy. Fraser was the stuff of legend when Cuthbertson worked at the Regina Weekly Post in the early ‘80s; he (Fraser) worked at the paper in the 1950s and was fondly remembered as being quite eccentric and amusing. Eventually, however, he moved back to Scotland. “I was going to Europe and someone said, ‘you should look up Fraser and write a piece about him, see how he’s doing,” Cuthbertson says. “So I went and met him. He was a real character. His Flashman character gave me the idea for this book.” He hopes that Memoirs of the Hon. Henry E. MacFutter will allow readers to see just how interesting history can be. “I’m trying to show people that Canadian history doesn’t have to be dull. From the time I was a little kid, I always liked history. Not the way they teach it in school where you memorize a bunch of dull dates, but the human aspect of it the drama, the mystery and all that.” The other reason he wrote the novel was simply to tell a good story. “A lot of Canadian books are about people discovering themselves or what it means to be Canadian and such. Dry, dull stuff that makes you think a lot. I didn’t want that, I wanted a good story. A book where…you want to read to the next page to see what happens. So that’s what I’m hoping for. I hope to educate people, but I also hope to tell them a re-

ally good story.” Memoirs of the Hon. Henry E MacFutter was launched Nov. 30 at the

Kingston Yacht Club and is available at local bookstores. “It was a fun project,” he notes. “I’m

hoping people buy a copy for Christmas to give to somebody who likes history or who just likes an entertaining read.”

issue under control.” The committee asked staff to provide more detailed numbers in time for the 2015 budget talks, which begin in mid-January. A representative from the student government at Queen’s University also appeared at the committee to propose enhanced winter sidewalk plowing to help thousands of students get safely around in the campus area. Wells says he recognizes the campus is a high pedestrian area, and the purchase of two additional sidewalk plows will improve service. However, he questioned how much of a priority the city should give the university campus over other neighbourhoods, including bus shelters and school zones. “Which ones do we make a priority?” He added: “Demand for sidewalk clearing has only gone one way – that’s up.” Coun. Hutchison agrees student concerns are valid, and he wants staff to look for ways to bolster service around the campus without scaling back other operations. While his frustration wasn’t directed at staff, he says councillors do need more information to determine if extra budget dollars are needed. He added: “We are not in a position to even consider being better.” Kingston’s self-imposed winter control standards were first adopted in 2002-2003 – guidelines that set out priority routes and timelines to clear snow from streets, sidewalks and pathways. In addition to severe winters, population growth continues to put a strain on public works to meet the service standards that haven’t been updated in over a decade.

Hoops for Africa The KCVI Blues and the Bayridge Secondary School Blazers met at the Queen’s University ARC on Thursday, Dec. 11 for the Hoops for Africa charity boys’ basketball games. The second annual event was part of KCVI’s 222nd anniversary celebrations and was held in support of the KCVI Youth in Action Club. Formerly known as the South African Partnership Committee, the KCVI Youth in Action Club is a group of approximately 30 students dedicated to helping people in need around the world. They are continuing the efforts started over 10 years ago by former students Julia Kellam and Kate Edgar. Hoops for Africa started in 2013 and the money raised will be used purchase school uniforms, which are required for student attending Uthoqotho High School and Mbanjwa Primary School in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The money is also used to support Mobil Moms, who visit children in the area who are orphaned due to HIV and AIDS. KCVI teacher Helena Huskilson said that she hoped this year’s games would raise close to $1,000, but it is noted that the Youth Action Club also hold other fundraisers throughout the year such as garage sales, book sales, bake sales and more .

SPECIALTY FOODS

By Bill Hutchins

Reporter

Kingston Heritage – Kingston’s bustling food truck industry could soon be sprouting up in more locations around the city and offering more menu options. Fueled by a growing public appetite for healthy food choices, city council is looking to update its licensing rules for street vending by granting more permits to serve food in prime public places while giving customers a wider selection of meals. The proposed Park Refreshment Vehicle Policy, now working its way through the committee level, would grant annual or monthly food vending licenses to food trucks or carts in nine locations around Kingston; Belle Park, Breakwater Park, City Park, Confederation Park, Grass Creek Park, Lake Ontario Park, Memorial Centre Park, Macdonald Park and Victoria Park. “Additional parks or recreation facilities could be added to the list of available locations for vending, as deemed necessary, and posted for application to the general public,” said a report by community services commissioner Lanie Hurdle. The revised policy, which included public consultation, represents a large increase in the number of locations currently licensed by the city to operate food carts and trucks. Tamara Bolger, who operates the Farm Girl gourmet food truck, applauds the push for more locations. “I believe that’s a movement that’s come, and it’s not going away,” she told councillors during an earlier presentation. Farm Girl had a 2014 municipal permit to operate its truck in City Park catering to families and downtown employees. Bolger says there’s a growing public appetite for a new kind of food truck experience that provides meals beyond burgers and fries. Some local food

trucks now sell everything from potato and cheese perogies to gourmet poutine and Mexican tacos. Bolger also supports increased curbside competition in order to satisfy varying public tastes in all corners of the city. “There’s room for everybody.” It seems city councillors are hungering for change as well. The previous council set the wheels in motion in June 2013 to update the street vending policy, noting there are many parks and sports fields 2ND NOW UNTIL JAN

Food to Go: City ponders new locations, menu choices for food trucks around Kingston that are considered a “food desert” with no nearby access to traditional restaurants. The policy review is now complete and is expected to go to council in December or January for approval. While city staff are recommending more locations, they also have new rules for food vendors to get the permits. Favourable consideration will be given to those vendors that can provide healthy, local, organic food options, sustainable business practices and offer more accessibility. Applicants that offer any or all of those options may get the nod to sell food in the parks, staff recommends. The city is aiming to educate the public and vendors about the new application process next year, and then start issuing licences for 2016. City officials are still examining additional street locations for food carts and will provide another report at a future date.

City faces parking pressures on three fronts in the New Year Reporter

“400 new parking spaces will need to be created to offset the surface parking spaces that will be lost when the blocks are fully developed,� wrote Kidd in a Dec. 9 Parking Work Plan update to councillors on the city’s environment, infrastructure and transportation committee. In an interview, Kidd says finding strategies to replace the loss of so much downtown parking depends on when the lots get developed. “The timing is tricky. We can’t get too far ahead of it because we’re going to end up over-supplying.� In the short term, the city may use the ‘Rubik’s Cube’ approach which involves shuffling parkers into other municipal lots where space is available. Kidd says her department is also working on a plan to accommodate parking around the new Providence Care Hospital on King Street West. Construction is well underway, and

the 270-bed psychiatric and rehabilitative care hospital is expected to open in late 2016. City officials have already held preliminary meetings with Providence Care to discuss parking requirements. “We do have some concerns,� Kidd told the committee. She says the hospital intends to charge parking fees to visitors and staff – a move the city supports in order to encourage active transportation modes - but the concern focuses on spillover parking pressures that will occur neighbourhoods around the site, including Lake Ontario Park and St. Lawrence College where spaces are either low cost or free. The college is being encouraged to increase rates charged at its sprawling campus lot to match the hospital parking fees. Parking enforcement at Lake Ontario Park is expected to be strictly regulated

Kingston Heritage - Construction of a new downtown parking garage will likely be placed in the fast lane for Kingston councillors to approve in the New Year. City transportation officials confirm that the need for a new parking structure, estimated to cost about $10 million, is more pressing than ever because of the pending development of three well-used surface lots along lower Queen Street. “We’ll probably have to build a structure of some sort,� confirmed Sheila Kidd, the city’s director of transportation services. Details surrounding the exact cost, size and location of a new garage have yet to be worked out for councillors to consider. “We’ll get something in front of council in the next three or four months to talk about some of the options,� Kidd

added. The city will also look at on-street parking programs while trying to steer more commuters into carpooling or public transit. But officials say a parking structure may be the single biggest solution to replace so many lost parking spaces at once. The privately-owned Drury and King/Queen surface lots, which are leased by the city to provide hundreds of parking spaces, were recently purchased by Homestead Land Holdings. Homestead has indicated it will be coming forward with development plans. In addition, the city is actively trying to sell a municipally-owned block across from the Rogers K-Rock Centre in the North Block district for residential and commercial development. The mostly vacant lot, used for hourly and monthly parking, is bordered by Queen Street, King Street, Ontario Street and The Tragically Hip Way.

to ensure available spaces aren’t “poached� by hospital staff and visitors. And the city’s on-street parking permit program will likely be extended to the Portsmouth neighbourhoods, Kidd explained. She says the transportation department will be busy in the New Year trying to work out solutions in three key areas where parking supply problems are just around the corner. “We’ve got pressures that are going to come around the area of the hospital. We’ve got pressures that are going to come in Williamsville. We’ve got pressures coming in the downtown. Those are our big three.� In addition, the city is still searching for a new downtown site to be its bus transfer hub because the current location on Brock Street is not considered large enough to accommodate two more Kingston Transit express routes when they are launched next May.

Editorial

In Our Opinion

Elf on the Shelf: beloved holiday tradition or the stuff of nightmares?

The other night, I was putting Summer to bed when she suddenly burst into tears. “I don’t want to go to sleep, mommy,� she sobbed. “I’m scared of the elf that walks around the house at night.� I stopped short of laughing because she seemed so genuinely terrified. For the uninitiated, Summer was referring to our Elf on the Shelf doll, Seamus, who is visiting our house for the holidays as an emissary of Santa. During the day, he’s a motionless toy, but at night, when everyone is asleep, he comes alive and gets into all kinds of mischief. When Summer wakes up in the morning, she can run and find Seamus and see what he’s been up to. He’s done things like swing from Christmas tree ornaments and drink an entire bottle of wine. A few days before Christmas,

Seamus will return to the north pole and report on whether Summer has been naughty or nice. I invited Seamus into our house last year, inspired by photos some of my coworkers were sharing of their elves. I enjoyed chronicling his adventures, but Summer was only a year and a half old and largely uninterested. This year, she eyed Seamus suspiciously when he showed up at our doorstep. “She’ll warm up to him eventually,� I said to Steve and he agreed this was likely. Obviously, this has yet to happen. Over the last few weeks, I’ve had conversations with various people about Elf on the Shelf and learned that many agree with Summer and believe these things are just plain creepy. Each time someone says this, I put forth my own argument, which I honestly believe to be true: how is the Elf on the Shelf any different from an all-knowing, omnipresent Santa Claus who breaks into your house while you’re sleeping and eats all your cookies? Generations of parents have sung to their children that Santa “sees you when you’re sleeping� and “knows when you’re awake�. That

to me is a whole lot creepier than a toy elf who magically comes alive at night. Granted, many very small children are also scared of Santa. Perhaps it’s part of the genuine, uncorrupted innocence young toddlers (two and three year olds) naturally seem to possess. By the age of five or six, children’s beliefs in things like Santa Claus and the Elf on the Shelf seem to become more nuanced. Whether they are conscious of the reasons or not, they know better than to fear these magical stories, focusing instead on their warm and fuzzy aspects. The trouble Summer has with Seamus is she takes his magical powers at face value. We tell her something and she believes it, full out, on all levels. She doesn’t yet understand enough of the world to have an idea of what is physically possible and what isn’t, nor can she conceive of the fact that people - let alone her own parents - would say something that isn’t true. There is a beauty in this innocence. I will miss it when it’s gone. As for poor old Seamus - he’s taking a bit of a rest for now, but he’ll be back next year, getting into all new sorts of mischief, I’m sure.

Celebrate and drive responsibly this holiday season Editorial - With the holidays fast approaching, it is important to remember to be safe this holiday season, especially when alcohol is involved. As many of us attend Christmas parties and other festive functions it is important to plan ahead and make sure that getting home safely is a top priority. According to MADD, there are approximately 1,100 impairment related crash deaths a year in Canada, which equates to just over three deaths a day. Sadly, these numbers increase each year and so do the number of violations seen by the police. Police services across Canada report over 90,000 impaired driving incidents each year according to Statistics Canada. Luckily, not all of these incidents involve fatalities, but this number is shocking, especially when you consider the amount of education that now exists regarding impaired driving. Kingston Police have taken on drinking and driving as their December Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) and they will be out almost every night for the duration of December, especially as we get closer to Christmas. They will be moving throughout the city for stationary ride programs and also setting up outside of known drinking establishments hoping to combat and deter those who choose to dink and drive. It really is simple – if you plan on drinking plan not to drive. Arrange for a designated driver, call a friend to pick you up, stay over somewhere until you can drive safely, call a taxi or take public transportation. With so many safe options it is hard to believe that there are still so many incidents and issues each year. This holiday season, think about those around you before you get into the car and drive home after a few drinks. Think of the families you may be affecting if you cause an accident. Their Christmas is just as important as yours and they’d like to be able to get on the roads and not worry about the actions of others. Happy holidays everyone and enjoy the festivities - safely!

A list of extra priorities for councillors to ponder in the New Year

1) Parking

The downtown core is poised to lose hundreds of prime surface parking spaces in the new few years - spaces that shoppers, commuters

2) Bridge Crossing

The last two councils laid the foundation for a $120 million third bridge crossing over the Cataraqui River. It’s up to this council to continue the momentum to get the bridge concept ‘shovel ready’ and to lobby senior governments for future grants. More land acquisitions need

to be done along the bridge landing route – John Counter Boulevard and Gore Road - and the bridge design and engineering work needs to be finalized. This vital pre-construction work will cost a lot of money, but there’s no reason why this project can’t advance to the construction phase by the end of this term in 2018.

ing and homelessness. 4) Youth Opportunities

Mayor Paterson made this one of the highlights of his inauguration speech, but the rest of council needs to get behind new initiatives that can provide the city’s youth with more jobs and opportunities. Statistics Canada listed the November youth unemployment rate at 13 percent in Canada – nearly double the average of the adult jobless rate. At the local level, the last council alienated many students over the ward boundary debacle, and now it’s time to engage them in ways that make them feel welcome to stay and work in Kingston.

The city is moving ahead with a Housing First policy by redirecting public dollars away from temporary shelters in favour of creating more permanent housing solutions. But, perhaps ironically, some local groups and shelters that currently provide stop-gap emergency services may be left out in the cold themselves. Coun. Jim Neill recently declared that day shelters, like The Gathering Place, may not provide permanent housing but they still play a vital role in the social support network and deserve sustainable funding while the city pursues the big picture of addressing issues around affordable hous-

6) Communications

This was a sore point of the former mayor, who often complained the city’s communications department was too narrowly focused on using traditional forms of advertising to promote and explain municipal services. While the city’s recently-revamped website is a good start, more must be done to enhance the flow of information to the people who pay City Hall’s bills.

Kingston Heritage Editorial – Kingston’s new mayor and councillors will gather in two months to work out a list of strategic priorities that will guide them for the next four years. Mayor Bryan Paterson has already unveiled his ‘smart’ city vision, largely based on creating more jobs and economic growth, while councillors will have their own ideas about how to make this city a better place to live, work and play. Here are some other priorities that councillors should attempt to tackle in their term.

and visitors rely on. That includes the recent sale of two privatelyowned but city-leased surface lots on lower Queen Street to Homestead Land Holdings for future development. The city is also planning to develop a large section of the North Block, across from the arena, that will result in even more lost hourly parking. Council needs to be proactive and begin making plans to replace most of these 400 or so spaces with a new parking structure. While promoting ‘active’ transportation modes is laudable and necessary, the downtown still relies heavily on automobiles for commuting, shopping, tourism and the Rogers K-Rock Centre. Make parking convenient, and they will come.

Sustainable Kingston receives $149,800 Trillium Grant for new Green Economy Collective program By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage News – By now everyone knows what greenhouse gases are and that they are bad for our planet. While we as individuals may be doing our part to reduce those gases, what about businesses? According to the Kingston Climate Action Plan, 51 per cent of our community greenhouse gas emissions are produced by the workplace sector. This percentage is a concern for Sustainable Kingston and luckily, a new provincial grant is helping them do something about it. “We are super excited about this grant,” said Katie Wall, project and outreach coordinator for Sustainable Kingston. “The grant is to help and support us in implementing this new program that we are calling Green Economy Collective, a business focused sustainability program to help businesses set targets for sustainability.” The $149,800 grant was announced on Dec. 2. Funds will be used to hire two new full-time positions at Sustainable Kingston. The first is an events and operation manager that will provide member support, networking opportunities and run events for participating business. The second, a program manager, will work closely with businesses in the new program and help them track their greenhouse gas emissions. “We compare cutting greenhouse gas emissions to losing weight,” explained Wall.

“Businesses need to step on the scale and find out where they are at before we can help them reach goals. We want businesses to be educated on the impact that they are having on the community and environment and we also want to help them track their greenhouse gas emissions and their improvements.” Sustainable Kingston also hopes that businesses will work together on this issue. They hope to create events and networks where the organizations can help each other and compare strategies and improvements. They also hope that organizations will come on board with the new project because of cost savings. “The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is obviously important to help the environment, but it also has a huge impact on their wallets too. It will create cost savings immediately and long term,” said Wall. While there is no time frame in place for the project as of yet, Sustainable Kingston hopes to hire the new positions in spring of 2015 and get the Green Economy Collective program up and running by early summer of 2015. They also hope to have at least three businesses signed on at the time of the launch. “Organizations can get involved in a couple of different ways,” explained Wall. “They can come on board as an organiza-

tion that wants to assess their emissions, set goals and move towards them or they can simply come on board and learn about the process while they think about realistic goals without immediate pressure.” Sustainable Kingston is also working in partnership with Hearthmakers Energy Co-

Not So Amateur Amateurs celebrate the holidays with ‘Fire and Ice’ By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage Events – Fire and ice aren’t usually two things that go together, but for the latest Not So Amateur Amateurs (NSAA) production, they compliment each other perfectly. The latest production from the young people’s theatre group is actually two shows in one; the first is a spin-off of the popular Disney movie Frozen and the second is an original musical written and scored by local teacher Janice AarssenBruyns. “It is called A Dragon’s Tale and I wrote it originally in 1995 as a reward for my Grade 3 students,” explained Aarssen-Bruyns, who now teaches Grade 3 at Loughborough Public School. “I re-wrote the play in 2008 and that is the version that will be staged for this show.” The partnership between Aarssen-Bruyns and the NSAA came about when Christine Kennedy, director of the theatre group, came to Loughborough PS for drama workshops this past year. “I told her about the musical. She asked for the script and she loved it and wanted to do it and here we are. We’ve been working on it since September and I’m really excited to see it all come together for this show.” The play focuses on a dragon named Horatio, who is the protector of a fictional kingdom. Horatio is a fire-breathing dragon but he loses his fire one day and the children of the village take it upon themselves to get it back and protect the kingdom from the evil giants that threaten it. “The kids put together a concoction called a

fiery brew. It is a combination of all sorts of hot things and it works and Horatio saves the day,” explained Aarssen-Bruyns. But the play also has an underlying message. “The play focuses a bit on bullying. The kingdom really stands together and says no to the bullies, the giants, and that is what we should all do in those situations.” The play also features a number of songs written and composed by Aarssen-Bruyns and her husband. The songs will be performed by a group of 24 students from Loughborough PS, who will also dance throughout the show. “They are all really excited to be part of it,” she said. “The show is in a real theatre and on a real theatre stage instead of a school stage and it is quite the experience for them. I hope it inspires a lot of them.” Inspiration is what it is all about for AarssenBruyns; her favorite part of seeing it all come together is seeing the kids enjoy her work and get excited about the material and the songs. “They are singing and acting out things that came from my own creativity. That is always a great moment for me and makes me feel pretty great. It makes it so worthwhile for me.” She also hopes that audience members will be inspired by the play too, and that it makes parents and community members curious about the arts and their importance in schools. “There is a lot of amazing raw talent and enthusiasm in this group and I hope people come and see that and it makes them think about how the arts work and how they really inspire young kids.” The NSAA production of ‘Fire and Ice’ runs from Dec. 18-20 at 7 p.m. at the Domino Theatre. Tickets are $10 and are available at Renaissance Music.

Frontenac Islands inaugural meeting held on Howe Island News-At the well attended inaugural meeting of the new Frontenac Islands Council held on Howe Island, the four members councillors Natalie Nossal, Barbara Springgay, Wayne Grant and Mayor Denis Doyle in a spirit of togetherness, read their swear-in oath. Individually they thanked family, friends and voters for supporting them, expressed commitment to their role and outlined certain issues that are priorities for them. Mayor Doyle in his remarks also offered “heartfelt thanks” to township staff for conducting “a historical first electronic voting.” He acknowledged a number of critical priorities to be defined during a strategic planning process in early January. “Transportation continues to be the top priority by far from residents and includes planning for the replacement and/ or enhancement of the Howe Foot and Simcoe ferries, and the Howe County ferry bubbler system,” he said. “The biggest concern is any delay in enhancing/ increasing capacity of the Wolfe service, primarily the second 75 car ferry. We must lobby for a summer ferry like they do at Glenora,” he said , adding that the “Howe Island ferry service has more capacity than Wolfe Island’s.” Mayor Doyle also referred to need for other short term/ safety/dangerous goods /and transportation and demand management improvements. While he hopes to keep tax increases to the rate of inflation he noted that OPP costs have tripled, and township asset “mostly roads” replacement costs are high. The mayor spoke positively about seniors housing, public communications (website,IT ) improvements, waste management in both wards, support for volunteer groups and respect for staff and the public. Councillor Natalie Nossal’s position as Frontenac Islands Deputy Mayor was formalized at the meeting. She expressed thanks for strong community support and is looking forward to working with the community in the ongoing business of the township, but is also looking to moving forward Please consider on some new initiatives for Howe Ismaking a difference for land. She sees strategic planning as important. “ I hope to work with the council and the public to establish strategic goals that can be brought to fruition within the next 4 years with at your local between council committees and constituents st in areas of recreation, transportation, communications, waste management.. as part of the Feel free to contact me.” she said. Councillor Springgay thanked staff for their assistance with special thanks to Councillor Grant for helping her in those early days following her first election. She sees transportation and a close liaison with MTO Look

Community Centre board before council approval.. “There should have been a special council meeting for that expenditure, “Doyle said. * Thanks extended for the donation of a Community Christmas Tree in Marysville. Before closing Mayor Doyle always asks if there are questions from the public. In this instance, Walter Knott asked: “How many accounts does the township have ?” and was informed that there were at least 10 accounts. “We are in the process of consolidation,” Mayor Doyle added. Council meets next Wolfe Island : Mon. Jan. 12, 2015 at 6:30 pm.

as essential to gains improvements. The budgeting processes, careful staffing and communications are important areas for here. “We have to be out there.” Councillor Wayne Grant thanked WI voters for their support and staff for their efforts. He spoke of the many issues that he heard about on the campaign trail. “And there is no money coming from the province. But I believe that council working with staff can keep taxes down and WI a great place to live.” South Frontenac Deputy Mayor John MacDougal, and Frontenac County delegate, was there to congratulate the new council. “If this many people attended our meetings, we would know we had done something wrong,” he said. Frontenac County CAO Kelly Pender, who was also was in attendance added to his congratulations, “Your priorities are our priorities,” he said. Mayor Doyle is the current Warden of Frontenac County. He and Deputy Mayor Nossal will serve on County Council for the 4 year period.

The birds and the bees and the creatures we need Out Standing in our Field

This is the time of year when the last few flocks of migrating geese gorge themselves on fallen field corn before flying south. The other seasonal birds are mostly gone, but for a brief time migratory routes that span whole continents intersect with our with Kingstonarea farms. It’s not known where the phrase “the birds and the bees” was first used, but its metaphorical relationship to fertility is clear. If I go out and sit in our hedgerow in the middle of the summer, I can judge something about the health and fertility of our land by watching which birds and insects are around. And if I watch especially for migratory creatures— song-birds like the robin, insects like the Monarch butterfly—I can judge something about the health of our continent. This summer, as the conventional grain fields were being sprayed with pesticide, two important new studies came out. The first, research from the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) found that global invertebrate populations had dropped by 45 per cent in 35 years. Invertebrates are a huge category. It’s not just insects like bees and butterflies, whose

pollination activity we rely on for most of our food crops. The category includes 80 per cent of all species, everything without a spine, from the snails and shellfish who clean our water, to the earthworms who break down fallen leaves and build our soil. Invertebrates feed populations of songbirds and small mammals, without which larger predators— from wolves to hawks to humans—could not survive. In my lifetime, the global population of invertebrates has dropped by nearly half. That’s absolutely astounding, and frankly it’s terrifying. Invertebrates are the animal foundation of our planet’s ecology. Imagine living on the top floor of an apartment tower, and then going downstairs one day to find out that without you noticing, nearly half of the building’s structure had been torn away. That’s what this is like. And there on the horizon, looming like a hurricane, is global warming. Leaving us to wonder: can this building survive that hurricane if its structure continues to be ripped apart? A second study points to one cause of this population crash. Research at Radboud University in the Netherlands found a strong connection between the heavy use of pesticides and falling populations of insect-eating birds

like swallows, starlings and sparrows. While it’s possible that some birds were being poisoned directly by the pesticides, researchers suggest an ecological cause: the pesticides were killing so many insects, in and out of farm fields, that the birds were starving. In other words, pesticides are doing what they’re intended to do—killing insects—and they’re doing it without any limits. Pesticides don’t stop at the edge of a field; their effects spread through whole ecosystems. Our farm is an organic farm. That’s a deliberate choice. I don’t pretend to be impartial on the issue of pesticides. A lot of people get food from us for health reasons, because they don’t want the food they eat to be sprayed with pesticides or herbicides. But it’s clear the effects of our food system are wide-ranging, and go far beyond any particular person’s plate. The phrase “everything is connected” is basically true, but it’s thrown around in such a generic, abstract way that people rarely think about the specifics. What we grow, how we grow it, what we spray on it, all these things have global impact on particular creatures. This stuff about crashing bird or invertebrates populations can feel overwhelming. But I’m not telling you this because I want to overwhelm you; I’m telling you this because it’s happening, it’s important, and we need to do something about it. Our choices and our local food system matter, and they matter on a really big scale. Kingston has been a hot spot for local food and ecological agriculture; people here care about this stuff. If that movement continues to grow, if people everywhere are to change in how our food system works, then maybe in another 35 years we’ll be able to open the

Living her dream stage resume. You may have seen her in shows like Peter Pan (Grand Theatre) where she played Tiger Lily, Les Miserables (Cox-Davies Productions) as Little Cosette, Cabaret (Blue Canoe Productions) as Helga, or in The Wizard of Oz (Grand Theatre). Her recent role as Anne was my first time watching and listening to her on stage. She’s impressive. Ball’s always enjoyed life on the stage, right back to the early talent shows in which she appeared. “I hummed all the time when I was little,” she said. “When I was in Grade 1, my teacher told my parents, ‘Get this girl in singing lessons; all she does all day is hum.’” Her first big-time performance was in Show of Shows at the Grand Theatre in Kingston. “That was it; I was hooked,” she said. This year’s Meistersingers production had a familiarity for Ball. She’d performed in the ensemble when the Thousand Islands Playhouse produced Anne of Green Gables several years ago. “A lot of the set pieces, including the buggy, came from the Playhouse,” said Ball. “I never thought

During the recent Meistersingers production of Anne of Green Gables, Anne-lookalike Kyli Ball wowed the audiences as one of two leads who performed the role. A Queen’s University Bachelor of Music (in Voice) graduate, she has one of those rare voices that enchants and thrills listeners. She grew up taking dance, singing and piano lessons and gradually came to focus on music. When she was working on her Grade 4 voice exams, she begged her parents to let her quit. “They made me continue,” she said. “I was so mad at them. Of course, now I know they were right.” She explained that she had to go to Queen’s University as if it were a foregone conclusion. Very definitive: that was her school of choice. “My mom went to Queen’s, and it’s one of those schools where it is very prestigious to get your degree,” she said. “My singing teacher, Julie Continued on page 18 Mylks, also went there, and she got me prepped to get into Queen’s. It was where I really wanted to get my degree. It was ideal for me.” As a music grad, who also has her Royal Conservatory of Music Grade 8 Voice and Grade 8 Piano, Ball is in an ideal position to teach others, which is what she wants to do. She also loves performing. While attending Queen’s University, Ball Excluding Individual Greeting Cards also trained in piano with Ann McGuirk. After graduating from Queen’s, Ball continued her training in voice and piano with Ann McGuirk, as well as taking on her own students Excluding Kameleon Jewellery. at McGuirk StuMay not be combined with any other offer.

her, but she thought she might become a teacher. While working on her music undergraduate degree, she went so far as applying to the Queen’s teacher’s program for a degree in education. She had a chance to do some teaching with Grade 4 students as part of her degree program. That convinced her that classroom teaching wasn’t for her. A letter arrived from the Faculty of Education. She knew it was the document telling her whether or not she’d been accepted into teacher’s college. “I never opened it,” she said. “I’d made my decision and I didn’t want to know what was in the letter. I knew I didn’t want to teach in that kind of structure. I love teaching music one-to-one or in small numbers. That’s what I want to continue doing. Learning and teaching Royal Conservatory.” “She explained that teaching helps both teacher and student. “Teaching helps you fulfill your own search for knowledge. You learn about yourself when you teach others. It’s a constant circle. As long as the two parts (teaching and performing) are in motion, that’s all I need.” Kyli Ball now has a lengthy

it would be me being the one to be Anne in the buggy.” It’s been a big year for the talented actor. Ball got married, and she and her husband, Mike, bought a house in Kingston. That gave Kyli space for her grand piano. Mike is a carpenter and is currently renovating the house to include a studio for Kyli’s work. “I’ll be able to do my own thing and teach there,” said Ball. After her marriage and the purchase of the house, Ball hoped to have some time off from performing. But along

came Anne of Green Gables, a dream role, although years ago she balked at going to Prince Edward Island when she first had the chance. “My family was always big on vacations,” she said. “We’d go to Disney every year. But one year my parents wanted to go to PEI. We fought it, but we ended up going to PEI. They took us to see Anne of Green Gables. I’ve been in love with it ever since.” These are the parents who wouldn’t let her quit music lessons. Smart folks. There are still some must-perform roles in Ball’s bucket list. Since she’s played young

Cosette in Les Mis, and it’s her favorite musical, she’d like to appear as the older Cosette. She said she’d also like to perform in Mamma Mia. “Broadway would be the best,” she said. “And I’m doing a lot of opera now. I love Beethoven and Vivaldi. Once you’ve learned how to classically sing and know how to control voice, it becomes difficult to like pop music.” Certain shows have influenced Ball’s interest in musical theatre. “I’m obsessed with Lion King,” she said. “The music, the costumes, it’s so much more than the individual people involved. Everyone contributes to making one big amazing scene. That’s what a show is meant to be. The leads are obvious, but from the first scene, everybody is working as one.” During the final Anne of Green Gables performance at L’Octave Theatre, I was fascinated by the reactions of a tiny, young girl named Chloe in the seat beside me. Chloe’s eyes were glued to the scenes on stage. She wiggled, clapped her hands and bounced around in her seat, enjoying the show. What I didn’t know at the time was that I was sitting beside Ball’s husband, Mike, and the couple’s niece. What better way to impress your young relative than donning the role of Anne of Green Gables herself? Turns out it was Chloe’s first trip to the theatre. I can’t imagine a better introduction to the stage than front row centre for Anne’s adventures. When we sat down to chat at Kirkpatrick’s pub a week after Anne of Green Gables closed, Ball said her husband was still singing the Anne songs. “I’ve always had his support,” she said. “He’s floored that I can do this kind of thing. But I’m floored that he can renovate an entire bathroom or a whole house.” Most of Ball’s family is in medicine or

engineering. Her mother is a nurse practitioner and her sister just passed her Registered Nurse exams. If laughter is truly the best medicine, Kyli Ball will also be a healer. But her “office” is the stage, where she makes the audience laugh, cry and feel emotions. She encourages others with an interest in theatre to become involved. “Theatre is for anyone who wants to go on a journey,” she said. “Theatre takes you on that journey. It’s a story, and who doesn’t like a story?” If you’re interested in piano or vocal training with Kyli Ball, stay tuned for her new studio. And keep your eyes open for her name in a Playbill. If she’s in the cast, the show will be worth seeing. Mark Bergin on Twitter @markaidanbergin.

The “The Tett seemed like the perfect fit for organization also acts as an intermediary for us to be in the new arts hub,” said Dolan. “That’s where we should be, in the middle Continued on page 21 of it all. We also wanted a place that would be more accessible and surrounded by all other arts groups and artists.” Sheppard agreed and said that because of the Tett location, the Kingston Arts Council will be close to both the community and Queen’s University Students. “We’re not on campus, but we’re right there beside the Isabel Bader Centre and Queen’s students,” he said. “We want Queen’s students and people from the community to be able to walk in and learn about the Kingston Arts Council and all the different arts groups in the Tett. We couldn’t have picked a better location.” At the Tett, the Arts Council, which actually serves a radius of 100 kilometres, will be in an ideal position to continue their mandate, which is fourfold: advocacy; communications; presentations; and HUNT’S PHARMACY funding. The Kingston Art Council is an umbrella organization serving sev613.389.8800 • Heritage Square • Amherstview eral arts disciplines. R0013056619

The Kingston Arts Council (KAC) is packed and ready to move into its new home at the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning. The Kingston Arts Council has a noble history. Prior to 1962, there was no arts council in the province. The formation of the Kingston Arts Council, the first in Ontario, tied in with saving The Grand Theatre. When the grand old theatre faced demolition in the early 1960s, a group of people interested in the arts banded together to save it from being torn down. The current Grand Theatre owes its very existence to this group of people. After saving the Grand, they formed the Kingston Arts Council, to continue with arts advocacy. KAC adopted its constitution in January 1962 and incorporated in February 1963. “It’s the oldest Arts Council in Ontario,” said Karen Dolan, the organization’s executive director. “In 1962, the organization saved the Grand Theatre from turning into a

parking lot. The organization got its start in advocacy.” It’s still part of the KAC mandate. “We’re a connect-the-dots kind of organization, linking the arts communities and the public, the City of Kingston and the arts community and people can call us and we’ll try to find the answer,” said Dolan. Because the Kingston Arts Council has been around so long, it serves a mentorship role. “We’re involved in the Eastern Region Arts Council,” said Dolan. “Because we’ve been inexistence so long, we try to help new arts councils.” In addition to advocacy, the organization works in three key areas: communication regarding arts organizations; funding; and arts presentations. Mike Sheppard joined the KAC staff as an arts administrator with a communications portfolio in mid-September. You’ll recognize him from his previous work, including being a founder, with Blue Canoe Productions. He also works with Theatre Kingston in an associate producer role. “I’m responsible for the outward communications,” he said. “This involves communication from the Arts Council to membership and non-members. I’m also in charge of the website and keeping it up to date, as well as supplying and finding content for social media and our e-newsletter.”

Kingston artists and arts groups who wish to apply to local foundations to support their arts activities. “We help people find grants,” said Dolan. “Someone can come in to see what all the options are. As an arts hub, we also help get events listed. Our new website that launched in March last year is incredible. When people access it, they don’t get a lot of outside advertising. Instead, any popups all relate to the arts and programs available in the region.” Part of the advocacy role of the Kingston Arts Council was obvious over the past year, especially prior to the time of the municipal election. KAC sponsored ArtsVote, an information and advocacy campaign that looked at each municipal candidates’ arts-friendliness. Candidates were asked a number of questions about their knowledge and support of the arts. This information for voters was posted on the KAC website. In addition, an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign was launched to obtain the funding to create a short documentary film on the importance of arts in the community. Film maker Leigh Anne Bellamy was hired to create this. “Because we’d raised the money independently,

we were able to pay the film maker what she deserved for her work,” said Dolan. From a financial standpoint, Ontario Arts Council research indicates that for every dollar that a community invests in arts, there is a fourfold return on the dollar for the local economy. To fulfill the arts presentation aspect of its mandate, KAC presents the Skeleton Park Arts Festival each year, as well as the Juried Arts Salon, The Kingston Cultural Kaleidoscope and Building Community Through the Arts. KAC also offers workshops, internships and professional development. Part of Mike Sheppard’s role is supporting KAC membership. KAC offers a number of perks to artists. “I communicate with current members and find new members,” said Sheppard. “I care a lot about membership and will help with anything they want to get out into the public. I care a lot about the arts in Kingston. I’d been dealing with this [KAC] office for a long time in other capacities. There is great passion and drive here. It’s where I like to be and it’s a place where I can thrive.” Artist members are listed in the Member Directory, which is available to the public. That directory connects artists with audiences, patrons and support-

ers. Members receive priority listings of their events. Members receive a number of box-office and retail discounts. They also become eligible to apply for the Juried Art Salon. “When an artist pays their fee at the beginning of a year, I want them to somehow get that back tenfold in value,” said Sheppard. An important new venture for KAC is When Art Meets Business. “We’re building a bridge between the arts and business communities,” said Dolan. “We applied for a grant and got the funds to do this. We’ve already started to build relationships. We’re connecting with more and more people in the business community and more businesses are connecting with us. There are a lot of focus Mike Sheppard, the Arts Administrator with the groups and one-on-one meetings that will Kingston Arts Council culminate in a public sector forum in FebPhoto courtesy of the Kingston Arts Council ruary. It will be a crossover event for arts and business. This is really exciting work that’s happening.” “Come in, sit down, and talk with us,” said As for hopes for their new home at the Tett, KAC Dolan. staff said they want to be busy.

neighbours coming to visit, the school concert, secret trips by Mother and Father into Renfrew, and if we were lucky, the hand-me-down box from Aunt Lizzie would arrive in time for Christmas. December would spin by, even though I would pray that it would go on forever. Nothing could take away from me that feeling of sheer joy that month

Lifestyle - For me, the month of December was the best time of the year. The planks on the wood horses in the summer kitchen were loaded with cake tins and pies wrapped in many layers of newspapers, and then covered with a thick quilt. Mother lived in dread that a mouse would invade what she had spent hours making for Christmas, but Father said they would have to have teeth like a chain-saw to get through all the wrappings Mother had put around every morsel. Every time I went into the summer kitchen, to get wood to load up the wood box, I could smell cinnamon and ginger coming from the mounds on the planks, and I would think to myself what a wonderful time of year was December! Of course, that was the month of my birthday too. But the day came and went like most others, although Mother always made a cake for me, and put in a few coins wrapped in wax paper. That was as far as a birthday celebration went. And my brothers always gave me something they had made. For the boys that could mean anything from a sling-shot for which I had absolutely no use, or a crudely whittled animal. But I was expected to heap abundant thanks on them for whatever they gave me. My sister Audrey, without fail, would take a nickle out of the corner of her hankie, and it would be sitting at my supper plate at night. “Too close to Christmas” Mother would say, which meant “don’t ex-

our door by the mailman. The excitement of opening the parcel (always wrapped in heavy brown paper, and tied with thick cord) once the kitchen had been redded up after supper, was right up there with getting new hair ribbons, or having a five cent ice cream cone from Briscoes General Store. And it was in December that we would collect the many new calendars handed out free of charge from so many of the stores in Renfrew. Most had beautiful coloured pictures of mountains, or big black horses, and always my favourite, from Scott’s Hardware, a picture of Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret Rose in their smocked dresses and strings of pearls. The Rexall calendar was Father’s favourite, and it went right to the cow byre. It was always a blue colour, and on the monthly sheets, which were the full size of the calendar, were lists of new medicines to treat everything from the common cold, to dealing with livestock ailments, which was of interest to Father. And as the month went on, I would be filled with the utmost excitement, knowing Christmas was just days away. Although presents were few and far between, I knew for a fact that Santa Claus would come. He never forgot my house on the Northcote Side Road. Always he left me a book, and a toy of the simplest kind, and there would be new hand knit mitts, and always the orange in the toe of my stocking. So all December would be one of sheer joy of the season and what it meant. My life would be filled with anticipation. Special church services,

pect anything more than the cake.” But sitting around the kitchen table the night of my birthday, in the middle of December, I would feel the utmost contentment. We would linger over our piece of cake, and Mother would get out her harmonica, and we’d all sing “Happy Birthday.” When I was very young I used to sing Happy Birthday dear Mary, until my sister Audrey told me I was just to listen and be quiet. And by the middle of December, the snow would be knee deep, the old Model T would be up on blocks in the drive shed, and everywhere we went, we traveled in the cutter or the flat-bottom sleigh. By then Father would have attached the brass bells to the horse’s harness, and I would think there wasn’t a more wonderful sound in the entire world than those bells, especially if we were traveling at night and the moon was out, and the fields looked as if they were covered with millions of diamonds. I would invariably fall asleep under the heavy blankets with the hot bricks at our feet, listening to those sleigh bells. I would think that time of year was the most wonderful of any month before or after, and never once did I think we were poor. I would think we were the richest people in the world. In December, Turkey Fair would have come and gone, and I would know that the blue sugar bowl would be fuller than at any other time of the year. And it was in December that our order from Eaton’s catalogue would arrive, delivered right to

Holiday gift ideas for foodies By Kate Kristiansen

five empty bottles (they recycle used bottles) on my countertop, of these delicious extra virgin olive oils. The store features hundreds of choices, along with balsamic vinegars, salts, and spices. My go to is the Picual infused olive oil and Lavender balsamic vinegar. 5. Salted caper berries from Pan Chancho (123 Princess Street, Kingston) One thing every foodie needs in their kitchen. There are other great tasty finds to purchase at Pan Chancho, like creamy brie cheese, breads and more. 6. Trays of squares, tarts and cookies from Cards Bakery (304 Bagot Street, Kingston) The gift of fresh baking (that someone else baked), icing on the cake! It takes loads of time off the already busy holiday schedule. Face it, most foodies having been baking since Thanksgiving. This gift will always be welcomed, and devoured. 7. A cookbook from Novel Idea (156 Princess Street, Kingston) Foodies never have too many cookbooks, even when they rarely use recipes. They get us cracking, stirring and brewing. Simple beautifully written books with loads of scrumptious pictures are always inspiring. If you get stuck, pick up the Chez Piggy or Curry Original cookbooks. 8. Anything from Cooke’s Fine Foods (2395 Prin-

The warm glow of downtown shop windows dressed for the holidays and the fresh fallen snow helps fuel the spirit of the season. These little windows lure me in as I search for the perfect gift for loved ones. Hubby claims I am one of the hardest people to gift too. He refuses to believe me when I tell him the card means the most; the chosen words scribed inside is the greatest gift. (This doesn’t mean complete it seconds before you stuff the card in an envelope and hand it me—especially when I can see you.) Admittedly, while it’s the thought that counts, he does get the gift giving part wrong more often than not. For example, one of the first gifts he ever bought me was a mini-mag-lite flashlight. My face must have given me away, because when I opened it he quickly blurted out: “It’s pewter?” I don’t wear much jewelry, but a gal gets her hopes up when a carefully wrapped package is in a long thin black box. I was backpacking at the time, so his thought process was in line and in truth, it was what I needed. It’s these little gestures that keep me smiling year after year. I know friends who work really hard at gift giving, scouring the shelves in search of the one thing that will bring a jolly sparkle to their partner’s eyes. I’m that half: I love this time of the year, and relish locating the perfect gift. Neither of us are into big, overly priced items, although in an effort to get it right hubby has on occaCOACH & TOURS sion thrown a lot of money at the gift giving thing. I can always tell when he has had help from a well-meaning colleague or our teenage daughter. Stick to the card, I tell him. But, for when he insists…. EXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO Here are my holiday picks for any culiEXCELLENCE nary adventurous friends: Florida Sunshine Clearwater Beach - February 5 -19/15 1. A gift certificate to any of my favourite Toronto Sportsman Show - Saturday, February 7/15 restaurants. There should be no doubt it will Winterlude - February 14/15 be used for long lunches and lazy dinners. Spring Fling Myrtle Beach - February 26 to March 13/15 If you need helpful suggestions as to which Blithe Spirit - Wednesday, March 11/15 restaurant to pick, read my column. “ONCE” - Wednesday, April 8/15 2. A vintage cake slice from P’Lovers Charleston, Beaufort SC & Savannah GA - April 16-22/15 Arizona Desert in Bloom - April 22 to May 14/15 Store (123 Princess Street, Kingston). Each Toronto Premium Outlets - Saturday, May 2/15 is uniquely designed with different sayings Blue Jays vs Red Sox - Saturday, May 9/15 engraved into the pewter. I bought one for a Ottawa Tulip Festival - Wednesday, May 13/15 friend that reads “Slice of Love”. Amish Indiana - June 1-5/15 3. From the Farm Cooking School gift Ontario Summer Adventure - July 6-11/15 certificate. Learn culinary techniques from Newfoundland Spectacluar - July 16-August 3/15 chef and food writer, Cynthia Peters in an old Call us for your group transportation needs. We offer the most 1830s farmhouse in Prince Edward County. modern and diversified fleet in the area and along the 401 corridor. To purchase a gift certificate and for more inOur goal is to offer SUPERIOR SERVICE at an OPTIMAL PRICE! formation visit www.fromthefarm.ca. 613-548-1790 or Toll Free 1-800-267-2183 4. Anything from Kingston Olive Oil www.franklintours.com Company (62 Brock Street). I currently have TICO Reg1156996

cess Street, Kingston). Simply walking inside lights me up with the fresh smell of coffee. I love visiting for gifts any time of the year. Pretty much anything from their coffee to saffron, smoked paprika spices, gift baskets, and dark chocolate are a win. 9. Limestone Organic Creamery egg nog (Tara Foods, Pan Chancho or visit the Limestone Organic Creamery, 3113 Sydenham Rd, Elginburg). Limited to the season, grab as much as you can of this creamy treat. Fix your foodie a drink of eggnog dusted with nutmeg, cinnamon, and they’ll be yours forever. 10. Wine Glasses – every foodie loves needlessly large wine glasses or funky twisted ones that never fall

over for long conversations over the table. By yearend, one is always in need of a new set. Loads of belly laughs, high fives, and tearful resolutions are in a glass of wine. Grab a set of white and red glasses (yes, there are different kinds) and choose a local Prince Edward Country wine to pair it with. If you purchase anything from four through to 10, give me a call. I’d gladly use my mini-mag-lit flashlight to find my way to your house this holiday season. If you have a restaurant recommendation or foodie biz suggestion email me at ladydinesalot@gmail.com or follow me on Facebook and Twitter or my blog LadydinesAlot.com.

Sellers

Sellers competing for business in a thriving housing market also have to do their share of work. It is unlikely sellers will be able to list their homes for sale one day and have dozens of offers the next. Today’s buyers are much more

conservative, and homes will have to be presented in the best light and listed at reasonable prices. Sellers can start the process of selling their homes by researching recently sold homes in their neighborhoods, paying particular attention to final sales prices. This information may be available through tax records, and some real estate sites publish the data online. Sellers can then compare this information to what they still owe on their mortgages if their homes are not paid off, and this should give sellers an idea of their potenR0013061588

Having a plan is essential when buying a home, as such a purchase is not something buyers should take lightly. Establishing a budget is the first step. This means taking inventory of savings, expenses and borrowing power. It is adviseable to sit down with a lender and do a run-through of what you can afford. By providing key financial information, including earning statements, existing debt and credit history, buyers can quickly learn how much they’re qualified to borrow and how much they are comfortable borrowing. This helps buyers zero in on homes in their price range. Being preapproved for a mortgage is advantageous when it comes time to make offers on properties. It shows sellers that buyers are serious and that they

have been vetted by the bank. Many buyers conduct a lot of research online prior to stepping into a home. This research lasts an average of six to eight weeks, according to the National Association of Realtors. Homework includes investigating neighborhoods and school systems, comparing the going rates of homes in the area, as well as figuring out which features are desired in a home. It also is important to hire a buyer’s agent. Such professionals send buyers listings that fit their home-search parameters, which saves buyers a lot of time and effort. Some agents preview homes for their buyers, even going so far as to identify overpriced listings that can be avoided or finding sellers who are willing to negotiate. A buyer’s agent works for the buyer, meaning there will be no conflict of interest. Agents assist buyers in the negotiating process, using their knowledge of the real estate market to help buyers make realistic offers that are likely to be accepted while providing a wealth of information about housing trends, area services and home improvement vendors. When sellers accept buyers’ offers, buyers must then arrange home inspections. An inspection is oftentimes included as a contract contingency, and buyers have a right to cancel contracts if inspections find that a home is unsatisfactory structurally.

tial profits. Sellers also can benefit from working with real estate agents, as it can be quite difficult and stressful for homeowners to sell their homes on their own. Agents have access to multiple listing databases and industry contacts, information that is quite valuable when selling a home. Agent will do their own assessments of a home to help sellers price the home accordingly based on market conditions. In addition, real estate agents can inform sellers about which, if any, repairs or changes may need to be made to make a

home more attractive to prospective buyers. Real estate agents also help sellers through the negotiating process, finding a balance between what the buyer wants to pay and how much the seller wants for the home. Housing markets are once again looking up. As the new year arrives, many people may find now is the time find their next homes. Understanding the process and getting guidance from real estate professionals makes the process of buying and selling a home that much easier. BROKER

After flatlining during the economic downturn that began around 2008, housing markets in many regions of the United States and Canada have shown signs of recovery. Those in the market to buy and sell may find this year presents an ideal opportunity to do just that. According to the real estate listing Web site Zillow, home values rose 5.1 percent across the United States between February 2012 and February 2013. The latest forecasts from Canada Mortage and Housing Corporation indicate a strong housing demand into 2014, at which time a strengthened economy will energize both resale and new housing markets. Buyers will need to be prepared to purchase inventory right away, while sellers will need to price their homes right for the best chance of sale. The following are some guidelines.

On this holy day when Christmas is here,we let out a cheer we say, ‘’Jesus was born today ,in a manger with hay. This is a holy day.”

That’s why Jesus is called the great I AM

I am a baby swaddled in cloth. Lying cold in a manger only padded with straw.The animals watch me from afar,as we slowly gaze at the star. My father is out with the shepherds herding the sheep and finding somewhere soft for them to sleep. Three wise men came to give me gifts of riches. I am Jesus, Son of God, sent from Heaven so that you can live an everlasting life. I was born this day. This is Christmas.

(Grade 6)

Christmas Christmas is a holy day Jesus was born on Christmas Everybody praise the Lord and Jesus Hallelujah, hallelujah. Jesus cleans our heart with his words and glory, In Christmas, everybody will praise Jesus happily and cheerfully saying, Jesus, Happy Birthday! Thank you for coming to earth from heaven. On Christmas day Jesus was born in a stable. Christmas is when Jesus came down from heaven and had a plan to save us all “Praise the Lord!” The Lord reigns in his heavenly home, R0012466480

T’was the night before Christmas, And all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, Except for a mouse That mouse wanted hot chocolate for Santa that night, He looked for coffee crisp hot chocolate, he turned on the light. He hurried so he would not be late, But all he found was “After Eight”! He stirred his cocoa, waiting for Saint Nick, As he waited the clock went tick, tick. Then he looked at a picture on the wall, It was baby Jesus in a stable stall.

Then he remembered the real meaning of Christmas, To rejoice he ate a feast of swiss. That next morning as he went to church, He decided to give up his silly search.

Jesus Christ came down from above Filling our hearts with peace, joy, and love. He was born in a manger from the virgin Mary He lived to die, our sins he would carry. The angels were there with their heavenly glory There to sing the Christmas story. Some shepherds were there on that glorious night There to see Jesus in the stable’s dim light. The wise men were there with gifts of great worth There to see Jesus’ marvelous birth Jesus Christ came down from above Filling our hearts with peace, joy and love.

But only a few had the key Mother, father, shepherds and wise men Witnessed this event that would never happen again A choir of angels sang in glee Praising their lord, the world was free So we remember that special birth The Lord our God came down to earth

The Full Moon Christmas

Long ago in the North Pole, just before Christmas, when all the elves were suppose to be hard at work, there was a full moon that changed everything. The full moon made all of the elves act naughty, so they stopped wrapping presents. Because of this, they snuck out of the workshop and tiptoed to the barn and surprised all of the reindeer. Suddenly, the reindeer were kicking and screaming because the naughty elves were pulling their tails. Rudolph snuck out of

Sens game and that is how I knew that he was evil. The Toronto Maple Leafs won the game 3-2 over the Sens. The End

Santa’s Fall

On Christmas Eve, I looked out my window and to my amazement I saw Santa trip and fall flat on his face. I couldn’t believe that was actually real! I ran out of my room and told my parents, but my mom told me she didn’t believe me. When she told me that I decided to go back to bed. When I fell back to sleep, I had a dream that Santa walked into my bedroom and said ho, Taylor D ho, ho, Merry Christmas! I woke up and went downstairs and saw that there were no presents under my tree. I cried I once met Santa’s evil twin on and ran back upstairs, crawled back Christmas Eve. I was in my bed into bed and woke up! I realized it was watching a hockey game when all just a crazy dream. I saw big red eyes staring in my The End window. I yelled “OH MY GOD” and ran out of my room! Santa’s evil twin was watching the Ottawa Evan B

the barn to go and tell Santa, but he could not find him so he kept looking but he was nowhere to be found. Later, he found Mrs. Clause in the kitchen making gingerbread men. Rudolph asked for her help with the naughty elves when Mrs. Clause went to the barn and said “hey all of you, stop!” also telling them to take three deep breaths. She promised them all twenty dollars each if they went and finished wrapping all of the presents. Because of this, Mrs. Clause saved Christmas that year and the full moon didn’t ruin Christmas after all. Mrs. Clause and the reindeer were really happy the full moon was over and they hoped another full moon never happened near Christmas again. The End

Odessa Public School

James R. Henderson Public School up and when she does, there is no going back to sleep. Once all the presents are open, wrapping paper EVERYWHERE, mouth sore from smiling for all the pictures, we get dress and to my grandparents for a big breakfast and then more presents. GEEZ! Big family supper, it feeds 10 people. It’s always a great dinner, lots of laughs and love. And that is why Christmas is my favorite.

Why Christmas is my Fav! Christmas is my favourite, not because I get presents, but because I spend time with my family. Even though I’m older, we still do the same traditions. Santa PNP, Nordic Santa Tracker, Christmas Eve at my Grandparents for dinner, then home to open one present. I try to convince mom to let me open more, but she always says no. Milk & cookies for Santa, then bed. In the morning, mom always has to wake me
