Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cross-country tour brought him to downtown Napanee on Thursday, where he was met by hundreds of people who crammed Ellena’s Café to overflowing. The PM gave no formal speech or media availability, but instead just shook hands and posed for photos, offering brief one-on-one chats as he worked his way through the room. Trudeau’s visit in Napanee was part of the Liberal leader’s whistlestop tour that is aimed at meeting average Canadians. The tour, which follows a bit of a campaigning style format, has a mix of meet-and-greets and townhall style meetings at some of the larger centres. The tour comes as the PM faces ethics questions over a holiday-period vacation, and on the eve of Donald Trump being inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States. Also in attendance at Ellena’s was HastingsLennox and Addington Liberal MP Mike Bossio, who also held a meet-and-greet with his constitutes. “I was amazed that (Trudeau) stopped to talk to as many people as he did,” said Bossio. “He was supposed to be here for 15 minutes, he ended up being here for 45 minutes.”

or criticism. “A number of things were provincially-oriented,” Bossio said of the issues raised during Trudeau’s walk through the room. “School closures in rural communities, education for those that are challenged with dyslexia or other facets, veteran issues were raised.” “That was one key area I wanted to emphasize, I knew it was something that would come up because there are a lot of veterans in our riding,” Bossio continued. “We’re still working hard to get a veteran’s hospital in Trenton because we think that would be a valuable resource for our region. A lot of (the comments) were just accolades like ‘I knew your father, I had this picture taken, can I give you a hug?’ A lot of it was just sharing stories.” That’s not to say everyone was fawning over his visit. “There were some people who said ‘I don’t like that you’re legalizing marijuana’, he talked it out,” said Bossio. “Another discussed veterans and (Trudeau explained) this is what we’re trying to do, this is where we’re going.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and local MP Mike Bossio met with gathers of all ages, stopping for a brief chats as they worked their way through the crowd. Bossio says Trudeau’s willingness to make a detour between Kingston and Belleville to stop in Napanee was a sign of the government’s commitment to the rural community. “For the past year, one of the biggest challenges for this job has been educating my urban counterparts on rural,” said Bossio. “Because they don’t get it. After a year we’re finally starting to see, with the Prime Minister getting that $500 million in digital infrastructure funding. That wasn’t in the platform, it wasn’t in the budget, it wasn’t on anybody’s radar. Same thing

with the $2 billion investment into small and remote rural communities.” When the stop in Napanee was first announced it was Bossio that was tasked with finding an ideal setting. He submitted Ellena’s as the building also houses Janet’s Wedding Flowers, Kathleen Williams’ Accounting Services and Peggy Collins Illustration. He considered it an accurate reflection of rural business owners. “We have multiple businesses within our bubble,” said Ellena Harris-Fleury. “So I think that it made a great spot because we are women who have families,

we all volunteer in the community and this place has become a hub, we have many meetings here.” After successfully hosting the Prime Minister the cafe will now forever have that footnote attached to it, though Harris-Fleury hopes to be known for more than that. “I would rather people say this place has the best coconut cream pie ever,” she said, laughing, “and there are charming people that work there.” After wrapping up his Ontario leg of the tour the PM was scheduled to visit Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Quebec this week.

Former heritage board member taking case to provincial body BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Despite resigning from the Greater Napanee Municipal Heritage Committee last month over the town council’s decision to repeal a heritage designation for the property of 232 Dundas Street W, Dennis Mills is still pushing to sway council’s opinion on the matter. In a letter submitted at the Jan. 10 council meeting, Mills stated he wished to have the issue brought to the province’s Conservation Review Board to “conduct a hearing in order to gather sworn testimony in an open public process and to publish a report including its recommendations for council.” Under provincial by-law, council must go forward with the hearing before repealing a historical designation. The

results of the review are non-binding and ultimately council will have the final decision on the matter. Council voted to receive Mills’ letter and go forward with the review, as they had no choice in the matter. Back in November, council voted to begin the process of repealing the historical designation on the home, which is owned by Kenn and Kim Morrison. Council took those steps after hearing of the significant spike in insurance costs the homeowners would be forced to pay if their home were labeled as a heritage home, as determined by the town’s heritage committee. “The matter of the insurance was the primary need for redesignation,” said councillor Shaune Lucas. “I don’t know what people aren’t understanding when they see what this council did but

Mr. Mills is entitled to his due process. But what’s been said and what’s being interpreted are apparently two different things in the community and it’s really too bad.” Several other members of the Municipal Heritage Committee also tendered their resignation following council’s decision to repeal the by-law. “It seems that people took the whole thing very personally and that’s really disappointing and unfortunate,” said Kaiser. “What it really boils down to is a misunderstanding and misinterpretation if you will by insurance companies of what the designation is and what its intent is and it’s causing undue burden on property owners.” Kaiser added that he hoped the province would

look into that and work out some kind of agreement with insurance companies regarding heritage homes. According to the Morrisons, few insurance companies would even provide insurance for their home while others quoted much higher rates compared to similar, nonheritage homes. “I think council is on the right plane,” said mayor Gord Schermerhorn. “A couple (of heritage home owners) were saddled with no insurance or too high insurance, whatever the case may be. Council did the right thing. I feel too bad that our heritage committee have all resigned but we’ll deal with that at a later date.” Council will now await the next step as they prepare their notes for the meeting with the Conservation Review Board.

Kitten rescue group to hold pet microchipping clinic Saturday BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

Reuniting a lost pet with its owner can be a challenge — but a little bit of technology can go a long way towards helping a pet find its way home again. This in mind, the Napanee Community Kitten Rescue and the Lennox and Addington Animal Shelter are teaming up with the L&A Veterinary Hospital to offer a microchip clinic for cats and dogs this Saturday. “If (a lost pet has) a chip and they’re taken to a vet clinic or a shelter, it works really well at getting them home,” said Nancy Clark, president of NCKR. She says that a small chip, the size of a grain of rice, is embedded on the animal between its shoulder blade. Although it doesn’t operate like a tracking

Picturing Our Community

Tough job? No wonder HIS week during his ongoing cross-Canada tour, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that, as his children grow older, he might not try very hard to get them to enter the ‘family business’ of politics, saying he wasn’t sure if he’d “wish it on a third generation” of Trudeaus. You could understand why he’d be less than enthusiastic in this regard. Politics is a tough gig. While politicians get their fair share of adulation — for instance, there was no shortage of selfie seekers at Ellena’s Café for Trudeau’s visit last Thursday — they get their fair share of criticism, too. And that steady, relentless criticism will come no matter how hard you’re working, and no matter how good a job you think you’re doing. But, sometimes politicians don’t help their own cause. And, when Trudeau thought it’d be a good idea to spend part of the holidays on an island in the Bahamas owned by the Aga Khan, a longtime family friend and spiritual leader of Ismaili Muslims, he didn’t help his own cause. At all. Where things get particularly sticky is that the Aga Khan Foundation, an international aid organization, receives millions of dollars of support from the Canadian government. The foundation also lobbies the federal government. Indeed, one wonders what exactly Trudeau was thinking when he decided to pack his bags and head south with family in tow to the Aga Khan’s island retreat, where he also took a private helicopter ride on the Aga Khan’s chopper — something which is prohibited for federal politicians under law. So, the details of the trip have been forwarded to the federal ethics commissioner for investigation. If he’s found to have breached ethics guidelines, the prescribed penalty is actually pretty light: a $500 fine. The real penalty, however, is the black mark such a finding would have on Trudeau’s prime ministership — especially since no previous prime minister has been found to be in contravention of ethics rules before. If there’s a political cost, that’s certainly as it should be. After all, Trudeau ran and won on a campaign promising to do things differently. This would hardly qualify as an improvement. Further, when you’re going to great pains to show that you’re not out of touch with everyday Canadians, details of the ethics investigation aren’t helpful. Most importantly, however, when things like this happen, it erodes public trust in politicians and in government in general. Stories like these are corrosive, and not it’s not just the politician or his/her party’s short-term political fortunes that are affected. Taken in isolation, it might not be a big deal — an unfortunate error in judgement. In the big picture — and as the government faces other ethical questions — it all adds up. And when people get to the point where they’ve lost faith in ‘the system’, well, we don’t have too look too far to find out what happens then. That’s why we have ethics rules in place. Even if he’s exonerated, the prime minister would be wise to take a more, uh, conservative interpretation of the rules. It’ll certainly make the tough job he’s got a little less difficult.

Letter to the Editor

Trustees invited to school meeting Trustees for the Limestone District School Board, I would like to invite you to the next working meeting of the Pupil Accommodation Review Committee for Yarker and Odessa schools. I am inviting you because I’m afraid that no one else will and I believe that there is valuable information for you at these meetings, particularly this one. Not only will this give you a chance to visit the community that has been recommended for closure by your staff, but you will also get to hear a presentation that will provide a different perspective on the information you received in the Initial Staff Report. The Rural Schools Matter group has been allowed time for a short presentation at this meeting that we hope will enlighten both the PAR Committee and yourselves. This was a hard-won time slot, and a hard-won location, so I urge you to take the time to attend this meeting and more

broadly educate yourselves on the current school closure that you are considering. This isn’t like Frontenac and First Avenue that can easily join up a few kilometres away in a brand new facility. This is busing small children for an hour each way, with high school students, from the top scoring school for Grade 3 testing in the board to one of the lowest scoring schools in a town several times the size of their own. Closing Yarker would be a change that would barely register for your purposes but would be devastating for these children and their community. I know that you are busy, and I know that you already attend many meetings, but I know that coming to this meeting will be a valuable use of your time. The meeting will take place on Jan. 24 at 6:30 p.m. at Yarker Family School. I look forward to seeing you there. Robin Hutcheon Chair, Rural Schools Matter

Letter to the Editor

Act of kindness at Christmas I was standing in line at our dollar store in Napanee in ‘la la land’, wondering what I was forgetting, and where to go next. As I waited I noticed a distinguishedlooking gentleman in the other line waiting to pay for his purchase.

I was in my truck getting ready to leave when this same man tapped on my window. He said, “Did you lose your wallet?” I said, “Does it say Canada on it?” He said “yes” and all your credit cards are all over the ground too.

I got out of my truck and walked around where this man had already picked up everything. I wish I had gotten his name so I could tell everyone who this man is. To me saying ‘thank you’ over and over is not enough.

I wish this man and his family a wonderful holiday season, as I am, instead of cancelling credit cards and having to replace my drivers license etc.. So let me say ‘thank you’ once again Mary McNeil, Greater Napanee

Letter to the Editor

Government should get out of booze business I find it hard to understand the LCBO propaganda for it makes no more sense to promote booze than to promote heroin. It seems the glossy LCBO pamphlets come in the mail every month except when their advertising arrives two weeks apart. They push booze on television with scenes of fun and parties where people are drinking. Though say they promote drinking in moderation, yet their appeal is drink, drink, drink. As I throw the LCBO propaganda into the blue box, I pick up the newspapers and read about drunk drivers apprehended by police and the huge penalties

that follow. One evening as I stood in front on my home I heard a crash up the road. I ran to the site and saw a drunk who had been driving, wandering around in a daze. In the vehicle a woman who was both a mother and wife was dead. Then I read of home invasions, the abuse of a woman companion, fights in bars and even murders in which alcohol is either a contributor or a major cause. How is it possible that the Ontario government through the LCBO pushes a product that causes such suffering and damage? Alcohol contributes nothing to a person’s health; it only does damage. It causes

the addiction we know as alcoholism with some TV ads showing it as a problem similar to drugs. A friend told me that of the five fellows in his high school class that drank, two became alcoholics. Another chap told of two fathers with whom he has passing contact, who were dead on feet because of alcohol even though they were only in their 50s. It makes no sense that the Ontario government with its LCBO pushes alcohol when they know the evil it causes. The cost to our government is incredibly high with the victims of alcohol seeking help from our health care system. Add on the loss of

taxes through falling productivity and paying the police that are busy with lawbreaking related to alcohol. Oh, I know alcohol is here to stay in Ontario, but why does the Queen’s Park push this poison? I am sure it is because of the money they pile up in taxes. They advertise not because they are in competition with another company selling booze; no they advertise only to increase consumption to add to their coffers. Shame on our government that cares so little about the welfare of its citizens. Roy C. Kenny, Greater Napanee

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 65 Years Ago January 16, 1952 ■ A Napanee cab made a long trip, all the way to Montreal. Problem was, its operator wasn’t the person behind the wheel. The Napanee cab was found undamaged in Montreal three days after it had been taken from town. Three men were arrested by Quebec provincial police in connection with the theft. It was the second Napanee taxi that had been stolen in the past week. In the other instance, the cab had only been driven a short distance before it ran out of gas and was abandoned. It was ultimately recovered by the rightful owner. ■ Napanee OPP believed they had solved a number of recent break-and-enters after the arrest of a trio of men from Bath. The police had been investigating a series of petty thefts from schools, garages and parked cars in the area. A number of items that had been stolen were recovered by the OPP and returned to their respective owners. All totalled, the three men faced some 15 different charges in connection with the investigation.

Letter to the Editor

Plenty to see during bird count A late announcement saw what I believe to be the first Salmon River bird/wildlife count held over Dec 26/27. The aim is to have multiple ‘feederwatch’ locations in the Salmon River watershed, with origins simply being nothing available for our area, as it seemed it was just outside of any existing count areas. This resulted in an ernest Google search with a feeder watch program being identified, as a late alternative, that seemed like a sensible fit for our largely rural population. This will be continued next December with a far

earlier announcement and hopefully a few participants to record and enjoy a few appys afterwards as a light and short hosted event. Residents of the area will of course be welcome to participate. They can choose to share their information with Cornell University and its famed program that records similar data or to simply keep it to themselves and their friends, neighbors. Just for the record, here is a listing of the birds, observations noted, as based out of the Forest Mills area along the Salmon River watershed. It uses a

simple one page form, that records weather and the length of the observation period. This is available online or a copy can be faxed, emailed or borrowed to copy in the future. Dec 26: Blue Jays (4), Junkos (12), Blackcapped chickadees (6), Nuthatches (2), Crows (2). Dec 27: Robin (1) Blue jays (6), Junkos (12), Blackcapped chickadees (6), Nuthatches (2). Surprisingly, the first recorded watch was far less colorful than expected. Hundreds of robins were observed on the way in, with

a chipmunk, red squirrel, grey squirrel and six black squirrels being the only other ‘guests’. While other days have seen various woodpeckers, or the odd wild turkey, this first one was a humbling experience. At a glance, the one item that stands out is a surprise with robins remaining in the are and a few less blue jays than expected, compared to past unofficial observation sessions. Have fun and enjoy our Canadian winter. Thanks for taking a peek. Donald Stokes, Greater Napanee

35 Years Ago January 20, 1982 ■ A fire ripped through a home just east of Yarker, destroying it and all its contents. None of the family of five were at home when the fire started. A passing motorist spotted the blaze and notified the Camden Township fire department. Yarker and Centreville stations responded, as did a crew from neighbouring Portland Township Although the 10-year-old home was heated by wood, it was not believed that the woodstove was the source of the fire, officials said. Luckily, the home was insured, and the homeowner planned to rebuild on the same spot. ■ Deseronto town council was mulling a donation to the nearby Lennox and Addington County General Hospital. Council told a delegation of representatives from the hospital that they’d consider the request for a contribution at an upcoming municipal budget meeting. It was apparent that the facility was being wellused by Deseronto-area residents. According to hospital board member Dr. Brant Bergstrome, there were a total of 3,200 visits to the Napanee hospital that originated in Deseronto in 1981. The hospital was hoping to raise $1.5 million for a planned expansion.

Knitters unite! Early start to assist hamper program BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

You can’t accuse Brenda Mayhew of leaving things to the last minute. The Tamworth-area resident is in the process of marshalling local knitters to help craft mittens that will be included in gift baskets to be distributed to families in need by the Tamworth and District Lions Club next Christmas. Mayhew said she decided to start early while the weather’s still cold and to

ensure there are plenty of warm items to distribute next winter, “giving everyone lots of time to knit.” Mayhew’s husband is a member of the Tamworth and District Lions Club, so she knows all about the club’s gift basket program. “I just got this inkling that I thought (knitting mittens and including them in the baskets) would be a nice gesture to do,” she said. Mayhew said that she and her husband moved to the area about eight years ago; at that time she started a

said. “Whatever anybody wants to knit, and however creative they want to be… Anything that would be a nice gift to go in the baskets, I’m kind of leaving it up to the knitters themselves,” Mayhew said. Another benefit of starting early is the ability to

assess just how successful the program is. If it proves to be exceedingly successful, Mayhew says she’ll sell surplus items at a craft sale with proceeds going to the Lions’ gift baskets to purchase additional items. “I’ve asked for wool donations as well — if people are

donating their time, I don’t think they should have to go out and buy wool. I’ve also had seven or eight women already contact me that they’re anxiously going to start knitting,” said Mayhew. Any knitter interested in helping out can give Mayhew a call at 613-379-9906.

TOWN OF GREATER NAPANEE

LOCATION OF PROPERTY OFFICIAL PLAN AND ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENTS

The subject lands are legally described as Part of Lot 21, Concession 3, geographic Township of Richmond in the Town of Greater Napanee. The property is municipally recognized as 628 County Road 41 (see key map).

NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING

The Council of the Corporation of the Town of Greater Napanee intends to consider an Official Plan Amendment to the Official Plan of the Town of Greater Napanee and a Zoning By-law Amendment to Zoning By-law 02-22. Pursuant to Section 17(5) and Section 34(12) of the Planning Act (R.S.O. 1990), Council will hold a public meeting on February 14, 2017, to outline the content and effect of the Official Plan and Zoning Bylaw amendments, as well as showing the lands affected. All those interested are hereby invited to attend the public meeting and express their view on the Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendments.

OTHER APPLICATIONS The lands are also subject to Consent Application PLCON 2016 027 and Site Plan Control Application PLSPMA 2016 012. NOTICE OF APPEAL If a person or public body does not make oral submission at a public meeting or make written submission to the Town of Greater Napanee before the Official Plan Amendment is passed or the Zoning By-law Amendment is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision of the Council for the Town of Greater Napanee to the Ontario Municipal Board.

PURPOSE Applications were received from KLM Planning Partners on behalf of SFJ Inc. to amend the designation and zoning of the property at 628 County Road 41 to permit the creation of a new lot and associated rights-of-way. The new lot is intended to accommodate “Quick Truck Lube”, a motor vehicle service station. The lot is proposed to be created adjacent to the existing travel plaza. The proposed lot does not have frontage on a public road and will result in the creation of a landlocked parcel. Access will be provided via a right-of-way.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submission to the Town of Greater Napanee before the Official Plan Amendment is passed or the Zoning By-law Amendment is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Municipal Board unless, in the opinion of the Board, there are reasonable grounds to do so.

The site is designated ‘Arterial Commercial’ in the Town of Greater Napanee Official Plan. This designation is intended for uses which place a heavy reliance upon vehicular traffic and benefit from exposure along major arterial roads. Motor vehicle service establishments are permitted in the existing designation. Section 5.4.5.2.j of the Official Plan requires new lots to have frontage on a public road and Section 5.4.5.2.m. prohibits the creation of land locked parcels. The site is zoned Arterial Commercial ‘C2’ in Zoning By-law 02-22, in which uses permitted include a motor vehicle service station among other uses. Section 4.12 of the by-law requires access and frontage be provided onto an improved public road or street. Additionally, the C2 Zone has a required minimum lot frontage of 30 metres.

PUBLIC MEETING PLACE The public meeting will be held at the Council Chamber of the Town Hall, Greater Napanee, February 14, 2017 at 7:00 p.m. For further information contact: Gib Garrett, Planning Clerk Town of Greater Napanee 45 Commercial Court Napanee, ON K7R 4A2

An Official Plan Amendment and Zoning by-law Amendment are required to permit the creation of the new lot as proposed. EFFECT OF THE OFFICIAL PLAN AND ZONING BY-LAW REQUEST

Or phone (613) 354-5931 (Extension 2114) during regular business hours. The Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment would permit the creation of a new lot without frontage, with access provided via a right-of-way, that is intended to accommodate a vehicle service station.

Join the ‘maker’ movement ‘Maker’ is an umbrella term for independent inventors, designers and tinkerers — the catalyst for the Do-ItYourself movement that has been sweeping the globe. Whether it’s experimenting, crafting, knitting, computer coding, programming robots, fabricating on a 3D printer, prototyping with cardboard, or simply constructing something out of LEGO, if you have an inventive streak and like to create, then you are a maker! Luckily, there are plenty of books and library programs that are aimed specifically at ‘makers’. If you want to get a jump on sharpening those DIY skills, consider the following: The Big Book of Maker Skills by Chris Hackett is a

comprehensive exploration of a great variety of tools, how to use them, and the kinds of projects people can create with them, from the most basic hand tools to computers, lasers, and robotic projects. It Coles also discusses improvisation of tools and systems. Topics include laser-cutting, drones, welding, circuitry, wood working and robotics. Welding aside, ‘making’ isn’t just for adults! Maker Lab by Jack Challoner will help your 8-12 year old build, invent, create, and discover through 28 awesome experiments and activities. Created in association with the Smithsonian Institution and

supporting STEM education initiatives, Maker Lab includes 28 kid-safe projects and crafts that will get young inventors’ wheels turning and make science pure fun. Each step-by-step activity is Notes ranked easy, medium, or hard, with an estimated time frame for completion. Requiring only household materials, young makers can build an exploding volcano, race balloon rocket cars, construct a solar system, make a lemon battery, and more. Photographs and facts carefully detail the “why� and “how� of each experiment using realworld examples to provide context so kids can gain a

If you would like to provide the Committee with your comments on any of these applications, please write to Gib Garrett, Planning Clerk. If we have not heard from you by the date of the meeting, we will assume that you have no comments or concerns regarding this matter. If a person or public body that files an appeal of a decision of the Committee in respect of the proposed consent(s) or minor variance(s) does not make a written submission to the Committee before it gives or refuses to give a provisional consent or approval, the Ontario Municipal Board may dismiss the appeal. If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Committee of Adjustment in respect of the proposed consent(s) or minor variance(s), you must submit a written request to the Committee of Adjustment. This will also entitle you to be advised of a possible Ontario Municipal Board hearing. Even if you are the successful party, you should request a copy of the decision since the Committee of Adjustment decision may be appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board by the applicant or another member of the public. Additional information regarding the application(s) is/are available for public inspection at the Town of Greater Napanee Municipal Office at 45 Commercial Court or by contacting the Development Services Department at (613) 354-5931 Extension 2114 during regular business hours, Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Please refer to the appropriate file number.

Habitat for Humanity to hold Napanee information session Beaver Staff

The Kingston Limestone Region chapter of Habitat for Humanity is holding an information session about upcoming builds in the region early next month. The information session will take place on Feb. 7 at Greater Napanee Town Hall’s council chambers at 7 p.m. The session is aimed at families that are interested in participating in the pro-

gram as a homeowner, and to introduce them to the application process. Habitat for Humanity says it is looking for families that earn between $35,000 and $65,000 a year and who are willing to put in 500 hours worth of ‘sweat equity’ into the construction of their home or into other Habitat for Humanity builds in the area. The organization says it is planning to build three houses between now and

the end of 2017 in the Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox and Addington region. Those who are interested in attending but can’t make it are invited to call 613-548-8763 or e-mail office@habitatkingston.com. Applications can be found at www.habitatkingston.com/h ome-ownership. Habitat for Humanity completed its first-ever Napanee build this past December.

Cancelled museum event moved to Jan. 24 Beaver Staff

This week’s freezing rain prompted the Lennox and Addington County Museum’s ‘Tuesday Night at the Museum’ event to be pushed back one week. The event, which will feature author/historian Steve Manders discussing

the history of the Deseronto-based Bay of Quinte Railroad, will now be held Jan. 24 at 7 p.m. Going back to 1881, the talk will touch upon the importance the railway had in this region’s early settlement, when it was headquartered in Deseronto as a timber shipping line for

Rathbun enterprises. Using photos and artifacts he’s collected over 50 years, Manders aims to make history come to life with his visual presentation. Tickets for the presentation are $3 each, which will be available at the door. The presentation gets underway at 7 p.m.

Gaels right at home in Napanee Queen’s gearing up to host Nationals at SPC in March BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

ueen’s women’s hockey team should be well accustomed to the Strathcona Paper Centre’s ice pad following a pair of wins over Laurier Golden Hawks and Waterloo Warriors this weekend. During Saturday’s game in particular the Golden Gaels had plenty of exposure to their home away from home, playing a full regulation game followed by overtime which was made up of five minutes each of four-on-four and three-onthree. Still tied 1-1 after all that, the game went to a shootout with Queen’s Addi Halladay the only successful shooter for either team. “In a tight game like that we’re still happy to get two points versus one,” Gaels head coach Matt Holmberg said after the win, noting that teams get three points for wins in regulation, two for overtime wins with the losing team picking up one. “I know Laurier would prefer to be in a better position in the league, but as we saw today they’re a tough team.” Saturday’s game never

Raiders score needed win over Jets Napanee chasing Pirates for second playoff seed BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

unday’s offensive outburst was a sight for sore eyes for the Napanee Raiders, who bested the Amherstview Jets 6-1 to halt a season high three game losing streak. Tyler Ignazzitto had a pair of goals while Devon King, Justynn Steven, Zach

S

Knapp-Hermer and Cullen Hinds each had one to help secure the much needed victory. Matt Loveys had a relatively quiet night, turning away 16 shots for the win. Amherstview’s Quinn Cota faced 39 Raider pucks. Napanee came into the road game needing to turn their fortunes around in a hurry following a 3-2 home loss to the Picton Pirates on Friday night. A late first period goal and early strike in the second gave Picton a 2-0 lead. Riley Steeves broke the shutout midway through

the middle frame but it wasn’t enough. Picton would tack on another midway through the third in what would turn out to be the game winner. Ignazzitto buried a goal in the final minutes of the game but the Raiders couldn’t find the equalizer, despite outshooting the visitors 43-34 on the night. Jeremy Wasson took the loss, bested by Picton’s Aaron Young. Following their recent slide, the Raiders are now 18-12 on the year.

Nadia Larocca scored the game’s first goal on the backhand to put Queen’s up 1-0 in the first. That was all the Gaels would manage in both regulation and overtime as Golden Hawks goalie Amanda Smith finished the game with 42 saves, including a

penalty shot and a 5-on-3 power-play late in the third. Laurier’s Cassandra Calabrese scored in the second to help set up the thrilling finish. Sunday’s game wasn’t quite as tense, with the Golden Gaels taking a 5-2 win over the Waterloo Warriors.

NDSS swim team make waves in Belleville Beaver Sports

NDSS’ swim team competed in the Belleville Winter Invitation swim meet on Friday and did very well as a small team of nine swimmers going up against some big powerhouses. The men’s overall points winner was NDSS' Braeden Redlich-Stowe (Grade 11) with two first place and two second place finishes competing against 73 swimmers who were split up into four divisions. The women’s overall results saw Gracey Vanberkel (Grade 10) come in

second place and Leah Oster (Grade 10) come in ninth out of 86 swimmers. Other highlights were the pair of third place finishes by NDSS' relay team of Elizabeth Peterson (Grade 10), Emily Wright (Grade 12), Oster and Vanberkel. Napanee also racked up points with Nick Cinnamon's (Grade 10) two fourth place finishes along with similar results by Wright and Oster. Fifth place results were posted by Darby Green (Grade 12) in two events along with Cinnamon, Oster

and Wright. Sixth place finishes were posted by Maggie McDonnell (Grade 12) and the team’s newest swimmer Ofilya Silver-Lanuza (Grade 9). The points added up to a fifth place finish for the women's team out of 12 schools and a seventh place for the men’s which was an accomplishment as they had just two males competing. The club is also in tough in that they have no local pool, requiring extra dedication from the swimmers to travel for training.

QUEEN’S | Team enjoys playing at SPC CONTINUED FROM PAGE 20 The Ontario University Athletic league games were played in Napanee as a prelude to the 2017 Women’s Hockey National Championship, which Queen’s will be hosting in Napanee March 16-19. Leading up to the tournament they have been playing select league games at the SPC to both get accustomed to the rink and to drum up interest in the event. “They’re very similar,” Holmberg said of the Gaels’ regular home arena and the SPC. “The Memorial Centre has very funny dimensions. No one has ever really mapped it out, but it might be a little bit wider. We certainly enjoy playing (in Napanee). We had the tournament here in September and we’ve picked these games here so at Nationals we can feel it’s a true home rink. I know the players enjoy playing here.” With Sunday’s win the Gaels have now won six straight and are 10-6 on the season. Their next game will be in Oshawa when they travel to take on the UOIT Ridgebacks. They will return to Napanee next month when they close out the regular season with back-to-back games, facing the Brock Badgers and noon on Feb. 17 and then welcome the Western Mustangs on Feb. 18 at 7 p.m. The OUA playoffs will run Feb. 22-March 3, which will be followed by Nationals, which will see the top university teams from across Canada competing. Queen’s

has automatic entry to the tournament by virtue of hosting. The rest of the teams will be determined following their provincial championships. “We enjoy all the publicity around the event but from a competitive stand point we’re just trying to take it game by game and go

as deep into the playoffs as we can go,” said Holmberg. “Our perspective and viewpoint all season long has been let’s win an OUA championship and almost act like we’re not hosting.” Tickets for the championship are on sale now at www.GoGaelsGo.com/tickets.

In our hearts you will always stay Loved and remembered every day.

Mastering the ‘farmhouse’ style Farmhouse style harkens back to simpler times. Farmhouse style encompasses the sentimental side of rustic — a rustic romance. It’s a very natural and comfortably worn look. New clients of mine have envisioned their cottage to be designed in a modern farmhouse style.

Farmhouse design does not have an official definition. It has a great visual appeal and brings back images from the past, recreating the unique atmosphere and harmony of the time. The warmth of natural wood, soft colours, fireplace, beamed ceiling, the spectacular use of interior

architectural feature. Placed on the walls or used as a backsplash, painted white — bead board is indicative of the original farmhouses, where the interior was painted with white milk paint to keep the space light and bright. Sliding barn doors are just for keeping critters inside the barn anymore. They are a popular accent for the interior now too. You can use it in place of traditional interior doors to separate and define spaces. You can even use them to cover up book shelves, storage, media and technology when not in use. Barn-style sliding doors are great for adding architectural interest to a plain-white-box new build. Before you make the swap, measure carefully to be sure you will have enough room to fully open the sliding door. One of the great things about designing a home with a modern farmhouse style is the flexibility to infuse your spaces with a variety of accents and furniture from both styles. Think big, comfortable sofas and dining room tables large enough to comfortably fit family, friends, and then some. It’s an esthetic that rooted in good old-fashioned hospitality — when unexpected company was wel-

comed, families were large and social networking was conducted over a good meal at a sturdy table. Light, cotton slipcovers are also widely used. If you’re not ready to commit to purchasing new furniture, you can slipcover your furniture, and remain perfectly on-trend. Include different textures in the interior to make an united cozy interior. Cotton, burlap, leather, stripes and checkered patterns are perfect for giving an eclectic feel. To create a modern farmhouse yourself, you’ll want just the right balance of farmhouse nostalgia and modern beauty, which can be done by mixing styles within the same home design and architectural details. The essence of a modern farmhouse is if one puts the kitchen at the epicenter of it all, with large work areas and spaces where families gather not just as a chore but as a chance to make something together.

In the 1880s, the Ontario government encouraged farmers to transplant sugar maple seedlings along their laneways and road allowance that were harvested from their own woodlot.
