Council can’t block new methadone clinic BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

A closer look at the fine print has halted the interim control bylaw process regarding a proposed new methadone clinic in town, meaning the clinic is able to move forward. Once Greater Napanee town staff approved and passed the

building permit for the site, it meant council would not be able to pass an interim control bylaw. The building permit was submitted to the municipality on April 25 and passed final inspection on Jan. 16, which was then followed up with a letter stating the clinic’s intended use as a methadone clinic. “This is the first correspondence that development services

has received informing staff that the medical clinic was specializing in methadone,” explained Greater Napanee Mayor Gord Schermerhorn during Tuesday’s special council meeting to consider the interim control bylaw. Schermerhorn said council was not initially aware that staff had approved the building permit or that it would mean that doing so

would void the interim control bylaw. “If we found out about every building permit coming to this council, we’d have to have 20 meetings a month,” said Schermerhorn. “I think we have to define our zonings, not just medical, maybe all zonings have to be done differently,” he said, hoping redefining zoning bylaws would

Greater Napanee

Brisk weather provides Winter ‘Chill’

GNFS changes mean front-line improvements

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

More firefighters on duty, more office hours

Frigid temperatures didn’t keep people away from Greater Napanee’s Winter Chill Festival on the weekend — in fact, organizers say attendance has continued to increase. “We’re very happy with how the event went. It was definitely a cold day but we had a great turnout from the public, there was a lot of people and families out and about so it was a wonderful turnout,” said Lyndsay Tee, Greater Napanee economic development co-ordinator. “I think that we are slowly building from year to year, creating more of a buzz and creating more interest for the event, which is wonderful because that’s what we’re hoping to do,” she continued. Participation in the chili contest also increased. The Waterfront River Pub and Terrace won first place for the competition, followed by Spuds Restaurant and Catering in second place and The Loaf N’ Ale in third. “It was a good contest, lots of participation and we’re very pleased with it,” said Tee. This year there were 11 competitors, compared to eight to 10, which has been the norm in past

Ball-hockey players gathered on a section of Dundas Street to face off against each other during the Winter Chill festival. years. “Lots of local restaurants and local businesses took part and then there were a few council representatives and some members of the public that wanted to participate. It was a good, well-rounded group,” explained Tee. Throughout the afternoon, a ball hockey tournament took place on Dundas Street; the Loaf N’ Alers won the tourney. The Fleming College Logger Sports demonstration returned to the Festival again this year and despite some setbacks due to cold weather, was able to put on a great show. “Everything is frozen,” explained Clark Smith, one of the Fleming participants.

Even with breaking saws in frozen blocks of wood and slower competition times than usual, Smith said they had a great time. Smith participated alongside Al Cavers, Jackie Ramsay and Kyle Chalmers, all of whom are either Fleming students, alumni, or staff. The Business Improvement Area sponsored the Fleming Logger Sports Show for the second time this year. On top of a great afternoon out, the event raised over three bins of food and $204.30 for the Salvation Army Food Bank. The Rotary Club of Napanee collected food donations in exchange for coffee and hot chocolate.

A second phase in the Greater Napanee Emergency and Fire Services changes will provide increased office hours and firefighters on duty — which means improved service at no additional cost to taxpayers. Fire and emergency dispatch services were officially turned over to the City of Kingston on Jan. 15. On Feb. 16, full-time Greater Napanee firefighters begin new schedules, which would allow for better services offered during peak times, increase public education and awareness, as well as offer more time for inspections. “The new schedule will allow us to start allowing them to do more of the public education, inspections, and fire prevention programs, as well as helping us meet our legislative requirements on things like truck and equipment maintenance, testing, and reviewing stations. They (the firefighters) will also be able to be better utilized for emergency response,” said Greater Napanee Fire

There are legislative requirements we have to meet. In our Master Fire Plan, we looked at how best to utilize the staff, and what it kept coming back to was being tied to handling the communications and administrative duties,” he explained. The new schedule will allow staff to be available longer each day, and every day of the week. Gervais said this will mean equipment will be checked more regularly, community visibility will increase, and so will public education. “We don’t go see our businesses enough. Now we can start going to the businesses more and talk with them and do public education with them on things like, how to use the fire extinguisher and showing them how to test their smoke alarms,” he said. Gervais said the department also plans to visit schools and seniors residences more often. “The way to make our community safer is to prevent the fire. Once the fire happens, something has failed. It costs the municipality, the taxpayers, a lot of money when there is a fire,” he said, adding that he hopes to see a reduction in fires once public education and awareness is increased. “If we can prevent more fires by putting our people at the start and try to prevent fires and loss of life, that’s a better way to manage it,” said Gervais.

Chief Terry Gervais. The new schedule will mean that regular office hours will be Monday to Thursday, 8 a.m. until 10 p.m., and 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. “Before we had one person here at nighttime and one person here on weekends but we’ve changed that. We’ve moved the crews around so we have more people on duty,” Gervais explained. In the old system, that one person was only able to answer calls in the office and was not able to respond to emergencies or attend public events. Now, with dispatching being done in Kingston, Greater Napanee firefighters are able to better utilize their time. “It’s a better way of doing things,” said Gervais. “The bottom line is we’re increasing the level of service at no cost to the taxpayers. We’re going to have more people on duty during peak times and we’re going to be able to manage all the requirements we have to do.” Gervais said that if Greater Napanee continued with dispatch services out of its own office, more staff would have been required. “Back in 2011, we did a staff utilization study that kind of said to council, ‘We need to review how we manage our staff and better utilize them to meet the requirements we have.’

Liberals prep for next election Veteran Liberal MP Dr. Carolyn Bennett rallies Grits at Napanee fundraiser

BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

Election readiness was the order of the day for federal Hastings-Lennox and Addington Liberals at a fundraising dinner in Napanee on Thursday night, headlined by longtime St. Paul Liberal MP Dr. Carolyn Bennett. With plenty of speculation over whether Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper will call an early election this spring or wait for the fixed election date on Oct. 19, and with the announcement that day that the federal budget would be delayed until April due to falling oil prices, both Bennett and local Liberal candidate Mike Bossio admitted they had no idea when the writ might be dropped. “People in the Conservative Party that I’ve talked to say that people who know don’t talk, and the people who talk, don’t know,” said Dr, Bennett. “You could apply that to lots of things.” “It’s a crap shoot,” said Bossio. “So, the only thing we can really do is just be ready.” And on that score, the MP and the would-be MP said Liberals would be prepared for any eventuality. “We’re ready. When it falls, let us out of the gate and let’s do it. That’s really the only position you can really take. You just don’t know, this government, what they’re going to do

Dr. Carolyn Bennett, Liberal MP for the Toronto riding of St. Paul, speaks to local Liberal supporters at a fundraising dinner at the Strathcona Paper Centre on Thursday. next,” Bossio said. “What we’re hearing across the country is, for the sake of Canada, a lot of Canadians would rather have it earlier,” said Dr. Bennett. “It’s time to change the government. (The Conservatives) don’t seem to want to govern. (Harper) has been in ‘administration and campaign mode’ from the beginning, unable to tackle the tough stuff like poverty, climate change, veterans, First Nations and Inuit and Metis. They refuse to do anything. Seniors housing, mental health… they refuse to govern.” One of the biggest criticisms of the Liberals and

their leader, Justin Trudeau, has been the lack of policy leading up to the election. Dr. Bennett said that the party will be releasing its platform when the election is called. In the meantime, she said, Liberal MPs and candidates will be trying to reach out to as many Canadians as possible. “You can’t make good public policy unless you talk to the people who really know about it, the experts and the people with the lived experiences,” said Dr. Bennett. “Our job is to be out listening and harvesting those solutions from the trenches and handing in our ‘homework.’ Hope and hard work,

for Justin, is to be out there listening, and expecting that people like (Bossio) will be fighters for their communities, not (being) just passive messengers from the PMO to tell everybody everything is great, when they know it’s not.” Later, she said, “I hope that when our platform is released in due time, people will see that we seriously have been listening to people, and that they know that they can see themselves in that platform…

(that) it actually reflects their lived experience, which is struggling now. People are struggling.” Bossio said that, before Thursday night’s dinner, he and Dr. Bennett — who is also the Liberal Party’s aboriginal affairs critic — met with Chief R. Donald Maracle and the band council of the Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte. He said it was a “phenomenal discussion”, and emblematic of the Liberals’ co-operative approach. “Unless you get the stakeholders to the table about what the issues are, to work on finding common ground and building a long-term vision, then the problems are never going to be solved. That long-term vision needs to go beyond the four-year electoral cycle. Unless you get everybody to the table to build that vision, you’re not going to have buy-in to it.” “Our approach is about vision and values,” said Dr. Bennett. “It really is also about how we go about things. I think that’s the way Justin sees the world. This is about partnerships, and about partnering with the provinces and territories, partnering with municipalities, partnering with First Nations. You can’t do this without listening to them.”

Stunt drivers nabbed by OPP Beaver Staff

Between Saturday and Monday, Napanee OPP charged four men with stunt driving in four separate incidents. On Saturday, at 7:53 p.m., a Napanee OPP officer, conducting radar enforcement, stopped a vehicle being driven at 158 kilometres per hour eastbound on Highway 401 near Napanee. A 25-year-old from Mississauga was issued a summons for stunt driving. Three hours later, the OPP, while performing radar enforcement just west of Napanee on the 401, caught another driver travelling 171 km/h. A 21-year-old from Kanata was issued a summons for stunt driving and had his vehicle impounded for seven days.

Stone Mills Township

Council pushes forward with dam repairs Funds set aside for first phase of project BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

Stone Mills council is moving ahead with plans to repair the crumbling Colebrook dam on the Napanee River. Council approved the expenditure of $25,000 to begin Phase 1 of a two-phase project. Council is also counting on funding from the Ministry of Natural Resources to cover half the cost of the first phase. Council made the decision at its regular meeting Monday night after hearing a presentation from Quinte Conservation’s Christine McClure, a water resources technologist, and Bryon Keene, water resources manager. Their presentation was based on the findings of a study undertaken by Quinte Conservation looking at the state of the dam and what it would need to be brought up to safety standards. The first phase — which could begin as early as July 1 this summer — would involve repairing cracks in the dam itself; that project is expected to take two to four weeks to complete. The second phase, which would bring the dam up to safety standards, is estimated to cost between $350,000-$400,000, McClure told council. “That’s just based on the consultants’ estimates. That is subject to change once a contractor is in place,” she said. Both McClure and Keene said that the second phase would be eligible for provincial funding for half of the project as well, although they said that funding would need to be applied for, and it’s not guaran-

teed the township would get the money. However, given that the MNR had already provided funding for the preliminary study into the dam, they said they were reasonably confident provincial funding could be secured. They said that the township and Quinte Conservation would also have to apply to the MNR for a permit under the Lakes and River Improvement Act. In order to be eligible for funding, the township and conservation authority would need to have their application in to the MNR in less than a month. Keene said that he would apply to the MNR for a “five-year window” to complete the second phase of the project, and that he’d begin three-party negotiations with the township, conservation authority and the MNR on the precise timing of the project. He said that, depending on how council would like to move forward, the Phase 2 work could be done as early as this year, spread out over five years or something inbetween. Keene also said that the Phase 1 work would likely involve the temporary lowering of the head pond, which could result in nearby wells being impacted. At the request of Reeve Clarence Kennedy, Keene said that Quinte Conservation would be able to hold a community meeting to discuss the project. McClure said the second phase of the project would involve the installation of “buttresses or piers on the downstream side of the dam, which links the existing structure to the concrete apron on the bed of the river, and then anchors it with rock anchors three metres into the bedrock below.”

EDITORIAL

Tobogganing: Scourge of Winter There’s a movement afoot in Canada and the U.S. to ban tobogganing. It might not be such a bad idea, I say. In fact, I’m shocked that people are so aggressively defending their right to recklessly ride ice, snow and gravity down hills and valleys when we all know they’d be better off skipping the sledding and just going straight to the harmless, delicious, hopefully sugar-free hot chocolate. Maybe it’s high time that this snowy scourge is relegated to history. I’ll explain why. I recall, about five or six years ago, taking my son and his friend tobogganing at a local hill. A sledding veteran myself, I looked forward to the thrill of gliding down the snow — or at least have fun watching the kids do it. However, after they had two or three runs, I noticed, with great aggravation, that they were doing it completely wrong. They were failing, utterly, to fully harness their speed potential. I felt it my duty to show them the error of their ways with a demonstration. I took the sled — one of those inflatable, inner tube-style sleds, built for comfort, speed and ‘bouncibility’ — and stepped away from the top of the hill. Then, I turned and faced the hill. I ran as fast as I could, put the nice, bouncy sled in front of me, and hit the slope with a head of steam, head-first on my belly. Out of the gate, it worked better than I hoped. I knew that I was in the process of giving those boys a tobogganing lesson they wouldn’t soon forget. I’m not sure how fast I was going, but there was a bump up ahead that I figured might give me some decent ‘air time’ if I hit it just right. I made no attempt to slow my speed, steer out of the way or bail out. I didn’t get much ‘air’, but enough to get me just off the ground by about a foot. The inflatable sled cushioned the impact, but not enough to prevent my left shoulder from being jarred out of its socket when I came down to earth from my short flight. Needless to say, tobogganing was over for the day. With two disappointed boys in tow, I walked home, my arm limply hanging down. I tried as hard as I could not to cry like a baby and/or swear like a pirate. There’s an oft-used phrase that states ‘you can’t legislate against stupidity.’ Well, my shoulder and I would beg to differ. If tobogganing had been banned, I could have been protected from myself. If the temptation to fly head-first down a hill would have been short-circuited by regulation — since my ‘good sense’ clearly wasn’t up to the task — I would have been A-OK. As long as there are reckless fearless tobogganers like myself, there will be people asking for toboggan bans. And you can hardly blame them. And, no, I will not be providing any further toboganning lessons. Seth DuChene

OFA zeroes in on provincial budget Every spring the provincial government tables its budget, a roadmap for how and where money will be allocated in the coming year. And each year the Ontario Federation of Agriculture prepares a submission and meets with government and policymakers in advance of the budget to ensure Ontario’s agriculture and food industry is adequately represented in budget decisions. The OFA’s submissions are all geared towards sustaining the health and prosperity of Ontario’s agriculture and food industry and our rural communities. Working with the provincial government is our first order of business.

Peter Lambrick OFA Comment The good news is the Ontario government already appears to have agriculture and rural Ontario on its radar. The recent release about the Ontario Jobs and Prosperity Fund announced by Brad Duguid, Minister of Economic Development, Employment and Infrastructure will provide $2.5 billion over 10 years to enhance productivity, drive innovation and grow Ontario exports. The OFA is especially encouraged by the government’s commitment to a new Food and Beverage Growth Fund as part of the over-

all Jobs and Prosperity Fund. With a pledge to support food, beverage and bioproducts, the government’s focus with this fund aligns with OFA’s emphasis on developing Ontario’s bioeconomy and securing more food processing and value-added facilities. The OFA’s top three pre-budget submission items we are discussing with politicians focus on the bioeconomy, energy and rural municipalities. The OFA has been working to build a bioeconomy here in Ontario, with a goal to attract and build bioprocessing plants and develop additional energy generation through biodigestion.

fident negotiators are familiar with the qualities and price ranges of particular items. Determine quality. Look underneath furniture and inside drawers for clues to quality and state of repair. Are the joints dovetailed? Can you see finishing nails or glue? Has the dark stain been applied over the drawer interior or underneath the item, likely indicating a repair? Ask the

dealer if anything has been done to the piece. This simple question implies you have some knowledge and encourages the dealer to be forthcoming with information. It’s amazing to see what people cast away. A single flea market might offer goods from every decade of the 20th century. You may be wary to buy old upholstered furniture, especially if the fabric looks dirty or

damaged, but it is one of my favourite things to hunt for. Upholstery is one of the best deals to purchase at a flea market; you just have to make sure not to pay attention to the existing fabrics. Be on the lookout for pieces you can use together. You don’t need multiples of the same chair or sofa to make a room work. Just stick with pieces that have the same scale and proportion, than recover them in the same fabric. Successful marketers rely on instinct. If you’re considering a particular item for purchase, keep your hand on the goods. This signals the dealer and other potential buyers that you spotted it first. The best way to get an amazing deal is to buy a bunch of different items from the same vendor. This way, they can actually lower their prices since you’re guaranteeing them more sales, which in turn also makes their packing up and leaving much easier. Show your enthusiasm for the dealer’s goods before venturing to make an offer. Avoid negative comments to encourage positive negotiating. Keep in mind the dealer has probably spent weeks acquiring the item in question, and he or she believes it to be of value. Don’t pay the price on the tag/sticker, bargain for it. But don’t go so low that you’ll insult the seller. A great way to negotiate a price is to offer 25 percent to 35 percent discount on the price. Remember to bring cash; most

dealers don’t have the luxury of taking credit cards due to the charges acquired. Bring enough cash with you; you’re more likely to be able to negotiate successfully. Bring some small change as well for coffee, lunch and little impulsive buys. Once you get home, use flea market finds sparingly, mixing them in with the pieces you already own. A few big pieces mixed in with some smaller ones added to your existing stuff can instantly take an unfinished space and make it feel way more finished and remarkable personal. A little goes a long way. Use vintage in moderation with contemporary spaces. It will highlight the uniqueness of the vintage item. You don’t necessarily want to live in a time capsule. Whether you’re on the search for that one final addition to a treasured collection, a perfect memento, acclaimed piece of found art, or a specific item of furniture, you’ll find it at a flea market. Enjoy the thrill of the hunt, and be open to serendipity.

Lots of new thrillers to choose from So far, 2015 has been especially kind to readers who love the twists, turns and character study of a good psychological thriller. Here are five brand new novels that have been receiving a huge amount of buzz and will definitely be keeping me busy for the rest of the month. The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins is being described as “a compulsively readable, emotionally immersive, Hitchcockian thriller that draws comparisons to Gone Girl, The Silent Wife, or Before I Go to Sleep” – sign me up! Our protagonist Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning past a stretch of cozy suburban homes. The train always briefly stops in front of the home of a seemingly perfect couple, usually found breakfasting on their deck. “Jess and Jason,” Rachel calls them.

OFA FROM PAGE 6 Assistance in drawing processing companies to Ontario, for purpose-grown crops to help fuel our rural economy will be in OFA’s pre-budget submission. Rising energy costs are making Ontario farms less competitive and OFA members are seriously concerned about the increasing costs of energy required to operate their farm businesses. The OFA is asking the government for program details on investment in natural gas expansion in rural

One day, while looking for Jess and Jason, she sees something shocking. Unable to keep it to herself, Rachel offers what she knows to the police, and becomes inextricably entwined in what happens next. Another new novel supposedly written in the vein of Gillian Flynn and ASA Harrison is The Devil You Know by Canadian author Elizabeth de Mariaffi. Rookie crime reporter Evie Jones is haunted by the unsolved murder of her best friend Lianne who was killed in 1982, back when both girls were eleven. The suspected killer was never arrested, leaving Lianne’s case cold. Now 21 and living alone for the first time, Evie is obsessively drawn to finding out what really happened. As she gets closer to the truth, she becomes convinced that the killer is still at large — Ontario with $200 million in loans and $30 million in grants over two years. We are also advocating for the Ontario government to reintroduce a farm and industrial electricity rate, for the 2015 provincial budget. The OFA recommends the government increase provincial transfers to municipalities to ensure municipalities don’t need to resort to excessive property taxes to raise the revenues needed for municipal services and rural infrastructure investments. We want to ensure that the

Catherine Coles Coles’ Notes and that he’s coming back for her. The Descent by Tim Johnston follows the Courtland family as they travel to the Rocky Mountains for a summer vacation before Caitlin leaves for college. The destination is Caitlin’s choice — a championship runner, she hopes to use the rugged terrain for training. For Grant and Angela, the vacation represents an opportunity to rebuild their fragile marriage. One early morning, Caitlin and her brother Sean go for a run/bike ride in the mountains. A few hours later, Grant gets a phone call from the police that Sean has been found injured on the side of a road,

range of services available in rural communities, including roads and bridges and public services like health care and schools, are similar to those offered in urban areas. The OFA’s pre-budget submission gives us an audience with the Ontario government and is an integral part of building stronger relationships with policymakers to advocate for decisions that will impact the sustainability of Ontario farms and the rural community.

probably hit by a car. Caitlin, on the other hand, is missing and nowhere to be found. Her by Harriet Lane is a literary thriller of friendship gone wrong. At face value, Emma and Nina have very little in common. Isolated and exhausted by early motherhood, Emma finds her confidence is fading fast. The sophisticated and generous Nina seems to have all the answers. It’s easy to see why Emma is drawn to Nina but what exactly does Nina get out of the relationship? A seemingly innocent friendship slowly develops into a dangerous game as Nina eases her way into Emma’s life. Soon, it becomes clear that Nina wants something from the unwitting Emma — how far will she go in pursuit of it? If I Fall, If I Die by Canadian Michael Christie is set in Thun-

der Bay. It follows a boy named Will who has never been to “the outside” (yes, this sounds a lot like Emma Donoghue’s Room), and he has certainly never gotten to know anyone other than his agoraphobic mother. Despite her protestations, Will one day ventures outside clad in a protective helmet. While he initially braces himself for danger, he quickly begins to welcome his new world with enthusiasm, his fears fading — but life quickly becomes complicated when a local boy goes missing.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 50 Years Ago January 27, 1965 n Employees at a local manufacturer miraculously escaped death or serious injury after a fire and explosion ripped through their place of work. About 100 gallons of highly-inflammable paint burst suddenly into flame at Napanee Industries Ltd. on Ann Street. Napanee Fire Chief F.W. Patton said the fire caused an estimated $10,000 in damage. He said the fire started with a spark from a welder’s torch. Luckily, most of the 25 people who worked at the site were outside at the time of the explosion. n County public health officials scrambled to initiate immunization programs after a Denbigh school bus driver died from an “unidentified paralytic infection,” possibly polio. The 190 students at North Addington High School in Cloyne, along with 10 teachers, were immediately immunized. Testing of the patient for polio was inconclusive, health officials said. He was first taken to Pembroke Hospital before being transferred to Ottawa, where he succumbed to his illness.

35 Years Ago January 23, 1980 n A Quinte regional co-op depot for fruit and vegetable producers stalled before it could get off the ground due to a lack of support. The proposed depot was hoped to make Bay of Quinte counties a part of the Toronto-area market, boosting jobs and agricultural activity in this region. A feasibility study for the proposed fresh produce terminal was conducted by Price Waterhouse associates and paid for by the federal government. The Prince Edward County Federation of Agriculture was the local sponsor of the project. Organizers said they might try to revive the idea in the future. n After a man was killed at the railway crossing near Roblin on Highway 41, the county’s chief coroner Douglas Alkenbrack recommended that a barrier gate be installed at the crossing. A few months earlier, a 25-year-old Napanee man was killed when the car he was driving slammed into the side of an eastbound CN freight train, destroying the car and derailing eight freight cars. Alkenbrack said that given that both the railway and the highway see a high amount of traffic, a barrier was necessary.

Recalling the Eaton catalogue Editor’s Note: This is the first of an ongoing bi-weekly series from new local resident Glen R. Goodhand, who recently moved to the area. Goodhand has written for several community newspapers since 1989, including the Arnprior ChronicleGuide, the Brock Citizen, the Oshawa Express and, most recently, the Lindsay Post. A specialist in hockey history, Goodhand has also shared material for both volumes of the Total Hockey Encyclopedia, and the Scribner Encyclopedia of American Lives (hockey biographies), and has published a book, Hockey’s Historic Highlights. His Beaver column will take a generalized look back at history. hile Timothy Eaton of the famous T. Eaton Co. was not the first to utilize mail order catalogues, his was the first to be distributed in Canada. His company, which became an institution in this country, was founded in 1869. His first catalogue was a small, pink, 32-page publication distributed to visitors at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto in 1884. It contained a slogan for which he became famous: “Goods satisfactory, or money refunded!” Within 20 years the number of pages had increased to almost 400. By 1896 the mail order department was sending out a total of 135,000 parcels by post, and another 74,000 by express. While city dwellers were on the store’s mailing list, the company mainly targeted rural customers, encouraging those who lived close

Snapshots From The Past enough to visit the store on Yonge Street instead. Settlers, miners and prospectors, and others living in more remote areas, were favourites. In order to speed up delivery to western Canada, a store with its own catalogue operation opened in Winnipeg in 1905, and in Moncton in 1918. The first Christmas edition was published in 1896. The first copies featured mainly women’s and children’s clothing, with just a small section for men. But as time went on, the number of products advertised grew by leaps and bounds. Lamps, mattresses, books, stationary, silverware, furniture and patented medicines appeared on its pages before the turn of the century. By 1920 it was possible to order railroad carloads of material to build houses and barns. In the Spring and Summer issue of 1946, an amazing plethora of products were pictured. Besides every

possible kind of seasonal clothing for all ages, there were products for every room in the house — even furnaces were available. When it came to automotive items and parts, Mr. Eaton easily competed with Canadian Tire. Batteries, tires for cars, trucks and tractors, spark plugs and tarpaulins, were all featured. Office items, from typewriters to stationery were listed. Entertainment was not forgotten: radios of every size, record players and records; books to meet every taste in reading were there. Sporting equipment for winter and summer filled many pages. The farmer was a prime customer. He could

purchase everything from a milking machine to a hay wagon from the comfort of his kitchen table — plus seeds for his garden. The arrival of this volume brought excitement to all ages. It became a ‘wish book’ long before the Christmas edition bore that title. And when the new one arrived, the well-used older copy went to the “little shack out back,” where it doubled for that for which consumers now pay dearly — only it comes in soft white rolls. In 1974, Eaton’s catalogue department lost $17 million. As a result, the last edition was the Spring and Summer issue published in 1976.

International duo booked for Tamworth Stephen Fearing and Andy White will bring their award-winning folk sound to February show

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

nother act is coming to Tamworth next month and, with two successful entertainers sharing the stage, it’s sure to be a show you won’t want to miss. Canadian singer-songwriter Stephen Fearing, will be performing with Andy White, an Irish folk singer now living in Australia. The two have been creating music together for more than 10 years and have put out two albums together under the name Fearing & White. The two met in Canada at the Winnipeg Folk Fest in 1998. It wasn’t long after that that they started writing together. “We quickly realized that we had a lot in common and became friends quickly,” said Fearing. “Gradually, we started writing together. We did that for a while, kind of ‘see you next year,’ when he’d be around for five days on his way through town and we’d write a couple of songs and that continued for about 10 years. Then we decided finally that even though we had this geographical hurdle between us that we should put a record out,” he explained.

Stephen Fearing (left) and Andy White don’t see each other very often, since Fearing lives in Canada and White lives in Australia. Despite the geographical challenge, however, the two still find time to write songs together and to perform together. The two have over 20 albums between them and have put out two together. Fearing is a multiple JUNO Award-winner who has also worked with

Blackie and the Rodeo Kings. White has been honoured with many of Ireland’s most prestigious songwriting awards. Fearing says his rela-

tionship with White is “unique” because the two only see one another a couple times a year and that’s either to create music or perform it.

“We don’t see each other that often and when we do, it’s very intense,” he said. “We’re in each other’s faces for short, intense periods of time and then

we don’t see each other again for another six months or so. It’s interesting.” But when the two do come together, he said they create stronger music each time. “We work really hard on making room for each other in the material. We’re both vocalists, we’re both guitar players, so it’s an interesting process because we tend to write songs that are meant for two voices,” explained Fearing. “We’re so similar in some ways: we’re the same age, we both grew up in Ireland, we have the same reference points musically – I think it gave us both a chance to step a little bit outside of what we normally do,” Fearing added. He said when he and White perform in Tamworth next month, they will play music from their Fearing & White albums as well as a few covers. Drummer Gary Craig will join Fearing & White, who was also a member of Blackie and the Rodeo Kings. Fearing & White will perform at the Tamworth Legion on Feb. 14, as part of the Tamworth and Erinsville Community Development Committee’s 2014-15 Concert Series. The show is at 8 p.m. and tickets are $25.

The Concerned Citizens of Tyendinaga and Environs now have a greater capacity to continue their activities. Last week, the group Theatre Kingston announced the winners of 8 Creativity Studios its recent ‘Putting Art to Work — Iris Raffle’. The prizes for the raffle were provided by local worldrenowned potter Harlan House. The CCCTE could be considered winners as well — the raffle raised more than $29,300 for their ongoing activities related to the Richmond landfill and the proposed new Beechwood Road Environmental Centre landfill.

Mike Whalen of Marysville won the ‘Me and my Iris’ wall bowl; Mary Surman of Centreville won the ‘Crown Sterling’ framed watercolour; Gerry Diemart of Corbyville won the ‘Iris Vase’ and P.J. Davis Beach of Deseronto won the ‘Iris Wall Lamp and Mirror.’ An early bird draw was held in September. Justin Whalen of Marysville won the ‘White Night’ wall bowl. “We have been fighting for 15 years to keep our land and water safe,” said Mike Bossio, chair of the CCCTE. “As we work through the current Environmental Review Tribunal process, much new information is being revealed about the

extent of current groundwater pollution. However much additional work will be required before the potential for future risks is fully understood. I would like to thank Harlan for his generous donation of worldclass artwork and the entire committee for its work in selling the raffle tickets.” “It is my pleasure to help out this good cause,” said House. “I live in a very beautiful part of Ontario, and I want to keep it that way for our grandchildren. I admire the work that this group has been doing and continues to do. Thanks to all those who share this concern and bought tickets. You are all winners.”

CLINIC | Human rights issue

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

“They met the zoning. They applied for a building permit under medical offices. The building department issued the building permit, which (is) normal. And now, we find that the interim bylaw, because the building permit was issued, doesn’t control that building,” Schermerhorn said. Further discussion took place regarding council reviewing its zoning bylaws to redefine the term ‘medical clinic’; however, this was also met with mixed reviews. “The concept of separating ‘methadone clinic’ from ‘health care clinics’ in general, I would encourage town council to go to the Ontario Human Rights Commission,” cautioned Stafford Murphy, Director of Operations for Kingston Community Health Centres, speaking from the public. “There is community

after community after community in which the Human Rights Commission basically is saying, ‘You can’t do this.’ Other communities have tried to separate methadone clinics and pharmacies from other medical clinics and other pharmacies and basically they’re trying to distinguish it simply because of the methadone piece, and really, that’s a Human Rights violation. “Everybody is created equal, whether you’re an addict or not. We should have the same rights; we should have the same services,” said Murphy. “What we’re talking about here tonight isn’t about bylaw, it’s about the stigma of service for people with substance abuse problems.” However, Schermerhorn clarified that council should review all zoning bylaws, not just those regarding medical clinics. “I don’t want anyone to think that we’re singling

out methadone clinics – but we might be able to look at redefining our zoning bylaw so we have more control over it. I’m not going to sit here and say too much about methadone clinics. I have come before the Human Rights Commission over a simple little thing I said before, and I’m not going through it again,” said Schermerhorn before closing the meeting. John Uliana, Greater Napanee town planner, said it might be possible for council to redefine the term under the zoning bylaw; however, it would be difficult process that in the end may not be successful. “There would have to be some kind of analysis and evidence brought forward that is defensible that says, ‘Yes, these have significant impacts that warrant additional regulation beyond what we have,’” Uliana explained.

Firefighters donate AED to Community Living BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Community Living Lennox and Addington was given an invaluable gift on Friday that could very well one day save a life. A handful of firefighters dropped by the 99 Richmond Blvd. building to hand deliver an Automated External Defibrillator, as well as provide a short crash course on how to use the machine. The AED was funded entirely by the firefighters of Greater Napanee Emergency Services, both the full-time and volunteer associations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Essentially once you hook (up the AED) it walks you through everything through an automated response,â&#x20AC;? explained Dan Chalk, a firefighter with GNES. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You should be trained to use this but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re set up so that if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not trained it makes them very easy to use them.â&#x20AC;? Once activated the machines provide step-by-step instructions on where to affix the pads and what to press to administer a shock that will attempt to restart a heart. Once the pads are attached to the patient the machine begins to monitor vital signs and will only deliver a shock if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deemed necessary. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re meant to provide quick care to a heart attack victim who may not have time to wait for an ambulance to arrive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heart stops thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no blood or oxygen going to their brain,â&#x20AC;? said Chalk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The sooner you can get that heart restarted and blood flowing it can have a drastic effect on whether or not they survive and the type of life theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have if they do survive.â&#x20AC;? The firefighters funded the AEDs through the sale of their calendars and several other fundraising events throughout last year. They then held a vote amongst the stationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s members to determine which charity theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to support. After Community Living was declared the most popular choice, they then contacted the group to ask how they could help.

NEW DENTURES ... NEW CONFIDENCE!

Every year we make new yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resolutions and say we want to live happier and healthier. The truth is life is too good to go without a smile. So whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stopping you? Most denture wearers have not changed their dentures in over 10 years. Dentures have an average life span of 5-8 years. To many wearers this comes as a surprise. As we age, our mouths change due to gum and bone loss resulting in sagging facial features and loose, painful dentures. The dentures move due to excessive bone loss creating a floating appearance. This is seen particularly in lower dentures. As the teeth get older they naturally start to stain and it makes it more difficult to clean. The teeth will also start to wear down making the chewing surface less effective. Denture wearers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize all these changes because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had them so long. If your current dentures are over 15 years your bite force will be reduced to 6 pounds of force compared to 200 pounds of force with natural teeth. This leads to swallowing large pieces of food which can create digestive problems resulting in acid reflux, choking hazards and constipation. Many claim to be able to eat what they want but are they able to chew properly? Like the old Chinese proverb says "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is now!â&#x20AC;?

Art and jewellery sale to benefit SPWC BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

With a new wildlife hospital comes more day-to-day expenses – and Sue Meech, owner/operator of the Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre hopes next month’s fundraiser will help support the increased costs. This year marks the

10th annual ‘Previously Loved’ Art & Jewelry Sale at the Frontenac Mall. Meech said this event increases each year and she is hopeful it will grow more this year. “It promotes our cause and it promotes the wildlife centre itself. Every year people come and they say, ‘We didn’t even know you existed until we saw the

This is one of our biggest spring fundraisers; it gives us a boost and really gets us going for the year,” said Meech. Last year about $8,000 was raised but Meech said the SPWC is helping even more animals than before and is in dire need of funds and volunteers. “Of course, now with this new building, everything is going to be bigger and better and we’re going to need more money because we’ve got quite a bit of publicity with this new building and we are getting busier and busier than we ever were. Usually in the winters, just two people could handle it but now we’re really pushed to keep things going, even with extra volunteers,” said Meech. The SPWC is also taking on animals from neighbouring centres. “We’re actually getting referrals from other wildlife centres. We’ve got a couple of turkey vultures from the Ottawa Wild Bird Care Centre. We have two beavers here and usually

This artwork, along with several pieces of jewellery, will be on sale Feb. 68 as part of a fundraiser for the Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre. The sale takes place at the Frontenac Mall in Kingston. we send them to Aspen Valley Wildlife (Sanctuary), up north, but they’re full this year so they couldn’t take them so we have two rooms now with beavers in them,” explained Meech. She estimates each animal that comes to the SPWC costs about $100, on average. Last year the SPWC helped 2,500, which

is an estimated cost of $250,000. “As we get more animals, the cost is going to go up,” Meech added. As well as the need for more funds to pay for animal needs, volunteers are desperately needed. Meech said ideally, she would love to hire more staff, but she cannot afford to spend money on a paying a salary over paying for animal requirements. “We’re going to have to rely on volunteers for as long as we can, and then our interns will come. We are getting more volunteers

now. We’re between a rock and a hard place, staff is lovely but it costs money and we need the money for many other things like food and medication for the animals,” she said. “We’ve got some really great volunteers and they’re doing extra time for us, a well. We always need volunteers,” said Meech, asking for anyone interested in volunteering at the SPWC to contact her. She hopes next month’s fundraiser will not only help raise funds, but also awareness so more volunteers will come forward.

Pirates plunder two vital wins from Raiders Napanee’s second-place lead shrinks to just two points with Rebels, Pirates fast approaching

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

acking that final knock out punch with their opponents on the ropes, the Napanee Raiders let four critical points slip away at the hands of the Picton Pirates. Napanee couldn't put away the pesky Patcheyes, watching their opponents gut out a pair of wild wins for a home-and-home sweep. Picton bested the Raiders 6-4 at home on Thursday and then held on for a 6-5 win Tuesday night in Napanee. “They don’t quit, that’s for sure,” Raiders head coach Mike Hartwick said of the Pirates. “They generally scored when we made mistakes in their zone or we make mistakes in our own end. I think our compete level was good, I'm happy with that, but there was times when we didn’t execute when we needed to and the other team scored.” On home ice Napanee

held an early 2-0 lead courtesy of goals from Mitch Pearce and Brandon Nadeau. They couldn’t build on the lead, though it wasn’t for lack of trying, as Pirate goalie Nick Kazmierczak turned away a flurry of shots. Meanwhile the Pirates’ forwards methodically began to chip away in Napanee’s zone, climbing back for a 3-2 lead. A Josh St. Peter slap shot from the blue line that somehow trickled through Kazmierczak stood as Napanee's lone goal on 19 shots in the second period. It also tied the game at 3-3 and seemed to revive the Raiders, if only briefly. The momentum was quickly squashed in the third as Taylor Brown put the Pirates up for good with a goal just 1:17 into the third. Down 6-4 with just two minutes left, the Raiders made things interesting when, with Cam Parr pulled for an extra attacker, Troy Wylie scored a power-play goal. The cele-

bration was short lived however as Pearce was assessed a roughing after the whistle penalty during the celebration. The call didn’t sit well with the Raiders' bench, which tried to protest that a Picton player had high sticked their player during the celebration. Their complaints fell on deaf ears. “We had good looks on the power-play,” said Hartwick, noting his team’s 2-7 mark on the man advantage and overall shot total of 54 to Picton's 37. “We had chances to bury, we just didn’t bury it.” Tuesday’s loss came on the heels of a deflating defeat in Picton. After falling behind 4-0 through the first half of the game, the Raiders rallied with four straight of their own thanks to Jordan Cannons, Keenan Murray and a pair from Brodie Butt. The magic ended there however as Picton’s Curtis Colbary scored twice in less than two minutes, both on the

points (39-37). Napanee’s schedule doesn’t get any easier this week as they play the first place Port Hope Panthers three times, starting

tonight in Port Hope. That game is a make up of the Jan. 3 match that was postponed due to weather.

Golden Hawks swept off the volleyball court by Falcons NDSS winter teams will resume action in February as they make final push for KASSAA playoffs

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

hen the visiting Frontenac Falcons junior girls’ volleyball team got on a roll during Thursday’s match, there was little the NDSS Golden Hawks could do to stop them. While the Hawks had a few sustained rallies of their own in the latter stages of the game, the Falcons were able to score in bunches throughout the game as they powered through to a three set sweep. “I think later on in the first set and the second and third set we played a lot better than in the beginning,” said Hawks co-captain Emma Collard. “We got together more as a team.” “We were kind of panicky (in the first set) but then we pulled it together,” added co-captain Emily Harvey. The Falcons, now 8-1 on the year with the victory, showed a killer instinct by jumping all over the Hawks as they struggled to find their footing. The visitors came out blazing in the first set, building an early 16-5 lead. Napanee’s

Jordyn Sutherland was able to slow the Falcons’ efforts with a couple of aces, but the momentum didn’t last long. She was able to cut the lead in half at 20-10, but the Hawks could only watch as the Falcons secured the 25-11 set win. Once the second rolled around Napanee got back to their game plan, playing a much tighter defense. They were able to split the first 12 points with their opponents but began to struggle as they reached double digits. Napanee climbed to within striking distance at 18-13 but the Falcons went on another roll, pulling away to make it 24-16. The Hawks staged a bit of a rally but ultimately fell 25-18. In the third it was Napanee who got off to the strong start, building a 4-0 advantage on a couple of aces from Hayley Lambert. It was a similar story as they moved towards the middle of the set however as Napanee watched an 8-7 lead disappear into a 14-10 deficit. Maddy Uens helped the team stage a bit of a rally with some strong serves but it was too little too late as the Falcons wrapped up the sweep with a 25-15 set win.

Jackie Campbell (left) of the NDSS Golden Hawks attempts to make a block during Thursday’s game against Frontenac. Though it was a tough loss, there were some positives to take out of challenging a tough team in the middle set. “We had our cheers that help us stay positive and thinking about what’s next, instead of the mis-

takes we made,” said Collard. “It builds our confidence as well.” With the loss Napanee is now 4-5 on the year as they head into a two week exam break. They are currently tied with Granite Ridge with eight points

(two points a win) for the seventh playoff seed. Regi leads the way with a perfect 9-0 record. “I think a lot of the first year players are a lot more confident than they were before,” noted Harvey, saying the team seems to be improving as they enter the home stretch. The Hawks have four games left in the regular season, three of which with opponents below them in the standings. They'll hope to take advantage of the lighter schedule and try and secure a better playoff seeding heading into the playoffs, which begin Feb. 17. They need just two wins to clinch at least a playoff berth. Napanee’s senior team was also hosting a Frontenac squad on Thursday, suffering a similar three set sweep fate. Napanee is now 2-6 on the year and tied with LCVI for ninth and two points back of both MarieRivier and La Salle for a playoff spot. Napanee has three regular season games left in February to attempt to qualify for the playoffs. On the ice the NDSS boys' hockey team entered the exam break on a winning note, blanking the

Regi Panthers 2-0 on home ice last Thursday. They are now 4-3-1 on the year, sitting one point back of Frontenac and Holy Cross for the top spot in the league. The two teams in front of them however have two games in hand. Napanee has two games left in February before the playoffs get underway Feb. 19. The girls meanwhile found their scoring touch against Bayridge, heading into the break with a 9-3 win. They've won all six of their regular season games so far and will meet Holy Cross, who is also undefeated at 5-0, in their first game back after the break on Feb. 2 with the top seed on the line. NDSS also locked horns with the Falcons on the basketball court last Thursday. The Golden Hawk juniors dropped a 47-23 decision while the seniors fell 60-28. At 2-6, the seniors are clinging to a playoff spot, sharing the seventh seed with La Salle, trying to hold off QECVI who are two points back with two games in hand. The juniors are 1-7 on the year, in a three way tie for eighth with QECVI and Ernestown.

Atom Stars attempt to lock up playoff spot tomorrow in Cobourg With one weekend left in the regular season, the Napanee Major Atoms travelled to Frankford to face Quinte West. The contest began with the Stars dominating in the offensive zone, but were unable to capitalize. The flow of the game slowed due to the constant parade to the sin bin by both teams and with five minutes remaining in the second the Hawks were able to capitalize on a man advantage opportunity. The third period was again dominated by the locals, but they were unable to beat the Hawks best player that evening

and went on to lose 1-0. The Stars play this Friday at 8 p.m. at the SPC when they face Cobourg, and try to lock up the final OMHA playoff spot. n The Gray’s IDA Minor Atom A Stars hosted Oshawa, and played a strong contest, proving they are one of the best teams in the league. Aiden Haller-Brady led the Stars with a hat trick, and a slew of other players racked up points including Ethan Sutcliffe with a pair of goals, and Owen Maracle with one. The game saw three strong periods of play leading to 6-1 final in a solid team effort, although the Stars didn’t make it easy,

taking a number of penalties. They fended off a two man advantage in the second, with great goaltending by Sam Rickard helping to keep it scoreless. Oshawa’s lone goal came on a power-play in the third. n The Country Traditions Novice As earned a 4-0 win over Ajax in an away game on Saturday. Goal scorers were Caleb South, Lucas Jarmin, Jayden Holden and Zered Haller. Assists went to Ethan Boutilier, Duncan Clarke (two), South and Coulson South (two). On Sunday the squad played in Uxbridge. The boys played a good game even though they lost 6-2. Benjamin Buxton had the Stars first goal assisted by Coulson South and Haller had the second one assisted by Karter Vermilyea. n The Napanee Chiropractic.com Minor Peewees hosted Oshawa Sunday and matched them 2-2. Connor Brooks scored first early on, and Dylan Bailey gave them their second lead of the game, before the Generals scored with 1:51 left. Ryan Cunningham and Zack Slaven tallied assists. They have two games remaining, one a home game hosting Kingston at

5:30 pm on Sunday. n The Napanee Minor Bantam Stars had a rough weekend on home ice, but still managed to escape with one point. The Stars played the Kingston Canadians to a 3-3 tie on Friday before being blown out by the Whitby White Wildcats 8-0. Against Kingston the Stars spread the scoring around. Corbin Gibson, Cal DuChene and Liam Wilkinson all scored for Napanee. Adam Burger and Alex Ketcheson earned a couple of assists, while Justin Jones and Ethan Armstrong both collected single helpers. Cole East earned the tie in net against the Canadians. The following night, the Wildcats imposed their will on the Stars, and the Stars had little to offer in response. Despite the score, netminder Murray Craig made plenty of saves to keep the score from getting even more out-of-hand. n Brendan Hagerman scored a power play goal with 11.9 seconds remaining to gave the Napanee Firelight Major Bantams a 5-4 win over Clarington, their 13th win in a row in the Lakeshore League.

Napanee Crunch n The Atom Crunch played against Peterborough Ice Kats at home Sunday. After a scoreless first period the Ice Kats squeezed one past netminder Makenna Marlow who played a strong game. The Crunch struck back offensively but found it difficult to get one past the Ice Kats netminder. Finally late in the third period Saige Pearson edged her way around the Ice Kats defense and tucked one inside the far post, tying the game up. With two regular season games left the Crunch have secured a first place finish in league Team

play. n The CanWealth Veryea Sutton Peewee C Crunch finished fifth overall at the 2015 Winter Classic Tournament in Cobourg. Napanee’s run ended in a hard fought shootout battle against the Brockville Angels B team. Maddy Burgess was amazing between the pipes, helping Napanee force overtime against a strong Angels team. Despite a solid effort, they lost in a shootout. Hannah Phillips scored the Crunch’s lone regulation goal on a feed from Rachel Johnston. Starting off strong, the Peewee C team opened the tournament against the host team, West Northumberland Wild. Thanks to Phillips’s hat trick, Rebecca Hannah and Leah Carscallen’s goals, assisted by Brunner, Jayna Adrain, and Rachel Johnston, the Napanee team started the tournament off with a plus four lead. Their second game was against the North Durham Blades. In the final minute of play, coach Kevin MacDonald pulled Burgess, who had played great all game, but even with the extra attacker on the ice the team could not find the back of the net. Final score was 1-0 Durham. Day two of the tournament saw the Peewee girls face an intimating Outaouais B team. Despite killing off several powerplays, the Crunch were bested 2-0. All in all a great weekend. Thanks to the Crunch staff, Tania Granger, Janet Pringle and coaches Mackenzie Vermilyea and MacDonald for all their efforts.

COOK, ROBERT CHARLES

September 10, 1931-January 23, 2013

In loving memory of a dear husband, father, grandpa and great-grandpa ‘Cookie”. May the winds of love blow gently And whisper so you can hear, How much we love and miss you And wish that you were here. Sadly missed by wife Marie, children, Bonnie Kimmett (Steve), Rob (Donna) and Randy (Michele), grandchildren, Kristie Jackson (Ken), Courtney Piper (Kevin), Colleen Kimmett and Ben Cook, great-grandchildren, Reid and Claire Jackson and Jane and Josie Piper.

LONEY (Archibald) - In loving memory of a dear mother and grandmother, Vivian, who passed away January 22, 2011. Softly within the shadows, God gave a gentle call, With farewells left unspoken Mom, You silently left us all, Our hearts still ache with sadness And silent tears still flow, For what it means to love and miss you Mom No one will ever know. Loved and missed each day by Daryl, Lana, Neil, Tammy, Amber, Clark and grandchildren. OLIVER - In loving memory of our mother, grandmother and greatgrandmother, Mildred, who passed away January 22, 2012. She was a mother so very rare, Content in her home and always there, On earth she toiled, in Heaven she rests, God bless you mother, you were the best, Though absent, you are always near, Still loved, still missed, still very dear. We love you mom. Elvin, Carol, Garry and family.

MEMORIAMS

JOYCE/FRENCH - In loving memory of our parents/grandparents; Mom (Lena 2002); Dad (John 2014) and Mom (Sylvia 2007). Little did we know that day that God would call your name, In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same, It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone, For part of us went with you the day God called you Home, You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide And though we cannot see you, you are ALWAYS by our side, Our family chain is broken and nothing is the same, But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again. Forever in our hearts. Love Tracey, Ronnie, Tabatha, Tanya, Tamara, David and Erika. STIMPSON - In loving memory of our parents, Betty, who passed away January 28, 2003 and Tom on January 8, 1989. Time takes away the edge of grief, But memory turns back every leaf, We who loved them sadly miss them, But trust in God to meet again. Forever in our hearts.

Gone but Always in Our Hearts In loving memory of

CECIL STACEY

Who left us January 21, 2010 We look upon the frozen lake with sorrow, For the future years we cannot borrow, So many memories will not be shared By the many loved ones who cared. We cherish all those years we had with you, Even though they were far too few. That laughter and joy you brought to our lives, We see in every picture when we look at your eyes. Remember how much we miss you and know you took our love with you. Our wonderful son, husband, father, brother, papa and friend.

ARIES (Mar 21/Apr 20) Take a leadership role on a work assignment, Aries. If your interest in work has been waning of late, a more active role may help you change your perspective. TAURUS (Apr 21/May 21) Taurus, there is nothing you cannot accomplish this week. The sky is the limit in terms of your potential. All you need to do is focus your energy on a particular task. GEMINI (May 22/Jun 21) Let something that's been bugging you cool off for the time being, Gemini. There's plenty of time to revisit the situation later, and you will be glad you took some time away. CANCER (Jun 22/Jul 22) You're willing to give a loved one the benefit of the doubt when that person makes a proposal that seems to come out of nowhere. Your patience will be appreciated. LEO (Jul 23/Aug 23) Expect to be surprised by good news, Leo. Share your good fortune with others this week, and you will realize the good news will prove even more enjoyable. VIRGO (Aug 24/Sept 22) You may benefit from a change of scenery, Virgo. If you have the time, book a getaway to an exotic locale and make the most of this time to rest, relax and recharge.

LIBRA (Sept 23/Oct 23) Libra, rest assured that a broken heart or bruised ego will not last too long. There are big changes ahead in your personal or professional life, so keep your eyes open. SCORPIO (Oct 24/Nov 22) Taking charge comes naturally to you, Scorpio. In fact, you thrive in this role. But this week you may have to play second fiddle for the good of the team. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23/Dec 21) You seem to be operating on auto-pilot this week, Sagittarius. Your routine has become so ingrained that things are automatic. Make a few minor changes to liven things up. CAPRICORN (Dec 22/Jan 20) Spend the week in as much quiet contemplation as you can manage, Capricorn. You have a few big questions to work out and can only think when you have private time. AQUARIUS (Jan 21/Feb 18) Aquarius, dissatisfaction at work has you wondering if things would be different elsewhere. Sometimes a change of attitude can give you an entirely new perspective. PISCES (Feb 19/Mar 20) Pisces, a loved one comes to you seeking guidance this week, but don't be bummed if they ultimately do not heed your advice.

BELIEVE IT? How do Canadians know if it’s true (or not)? They turn to the trusted source: Newspapers in print, online, tablet and phone. And, research finds that they trust the ads there too – more than those in any other medium. Be where Canadians look.

RAIDERS | Next three vs. Port Hope CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17 On Saturday the two clubs meet again in Port Hope before closing out the three game set Tuesday in Napanee at 7:30 p.m. Port Hope, who has all but sewn up the league’s top seed, has lost just six times (25-5-1) this year. They boast 51 points with nine games left to play. “They’re obviously a good team,” Hartwick said of the Panthers. “They’re a good measuring stick for

us. We’ve got to turn this around and get back to where we were before when we were sacrificing everything and executing well in hopes of getting two points.” The Deseronto Storm meanwhile also hosted the Pirates this week, facing them on Friday. While the Storm found the back of the net for the first time in four games, they still fell 83. Daniel Ulrick, Jordon Guindon and Jeff Hoey each scored for the Storm,

who actually hung tough with Picton for two periods. Deseronto trailed by just one heading into the final frame before the Pirates erupted for four unanswered goals. Now 1-31 on the year, the Storm will host the Campbellford Rebels tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m. and then visit them on Saturday. They could do the Raiders a huge favour should they pull off an upset win in either game.

In praise of botanical gardens greenery in the west greenhouse last month. Why Botanical Gardens? Botanical gardens are expensive, labour intensive and, perhaps for some, they are a little intimidating, given that all of the trees with name tags hanging off their trunks are inscribed with long Latin names. The site of the current Toronto Botanical Garden is expected to be the newest botanical garden on this continent. It is an exciting time for all of us aware of what is going on there. Why would we encourage the idea of creating a new botanical garden in the city of Toronto at this time? The answer is not simple, but it is clear. The Toronto Botanical Garden stands in the geographical centre of the city. It

dens provide tremendous social, cultural, environmental and economic benefits to their cities. We’re significant partners in the world-wide effort to conserve nature and teach people about the importance of plants and ecosystems. We’re also powerful generators of economic benefit to our cities. Garden tourism is the largest tourism sector in North America. The botanical gardens of the U.S. generate more revenues than the entire U.S. gaming industry. Ten percent of all tourists visit the local botanical garden when they travel. Two percent of all tourists travel specifically to visit a botanical garden. Multiply two per cent of Toronto’s tourists times the average length of stay and average daily spending and the number comes to over $250 million in tourism dollars per year attributable to Toronto’s future botanical garden. And that means about $57 million in new tax revenue to the three levels of government. It’s no wonder that elsewhere cities support their botanical gardens. Mark: The math is exciting! It is not like a major tourist attraction is opened every day here in Toronto. I think that it is important to note that Ripley’s Aquarium was the first major tourist attraction to be opened in Toronto in over 25 years. What is the biggest hurdle to opening the new TBG? Harry: I see no hurdle to creating a new botanical garden. The city has our business plan and they have seen the data that compares botanical garden operations across North America. It is so obvious what Toronto is lacking and it is going to be easy to facilitate the creation of a new, great cultural institution. The fact that this will not add to the city’s annual operating

budget makes realizing our vision a certainty. We (the people of Toronto) are too cultured, intelligent, and well-governed to sit on these plans and do nothing. During my interview with Harry he waxes about his commitment to the new vision for the Toronto Botanical Garden. For those of us who believe in conserving nature and making the world a better place, there is no better place to start. People come to visit botanical gardens mainly for the beauty, but they leave having learned something about plants and healthy ecosystems. New York City has five botanical gardens; Montreal spends over $20 million a year on its botanical garden; Toronto spends $25,000. Remember: botanical gardens are amongst the great achievements of civilization. This is Toronto’s time!” As I reflect on Harry’s enthusiasm I am reminded of the recent trip that I took to see the botanical gardens of Melbourne and Sydney, Australia. These are botanical gardens of the highest order with no admission charge. In Sydney there are over three million visitors a year. At Kew Gardens in London they employ over 200 full-time staff who research plants, in part, as potential sources for treatments of all kinds of human maladies from ebola to cancer. Perhaps, to some extent, the future of human health is linked to the future of the botanical garden as we know it.

I spotted the young boy first; he was, perhaps, about four years old. Separated by a swath of greenery, I could see his wide eyes popping, looking in the direction of a toy train as it emerged from a dark forest of green growth along a winding track. He was standing hand in hand with his mother while she tried to steer a toddler in a stroller with her other hand. I yelled to the mom, “Enjoying the gardens?” “Yes, the kids love it here.” “Have you been here before?” I asked “Yes, we are members and come every week. The playground is fantastic.

Your home is your castle. Your sanctuary. Probably your largest investment. It can also be your solution to consolidating, and reducing or eliminating your other debt such as credit cards and car loans. The value of your home minus your mortgage balance equals your equity. For example, if you paid $200,000 for your home and your mortgage balance is $120,000, your equity is $80,000 and you can potentially use some of that equity to pay off some or all of your other debts and often at much lower interest rates. Consolidating your debt into one payment will also free up cash flow for other things such as saving for retirement, a future purchase etc. Canadians continue to pile on debt and now collectively owe more than $1.5 trillion, according to the latest figures from Equifax Canada. Setting mortgage debt aside for a moment, the average debt held by Canadians stands at

Only two single family bungalows remaining

$20,891. Equifax said the increase in consumer demand for new credit has been driven mainly by credit card and auto credit inquiries. According to a recent bank poll, paying down debt continues to be a high priority for Canadians. 22 per cent of those polled said debt repayment is their top financial priority for 2015, up from 16 per cent a year ago. The poll also found that debt repayment is becoming increasingly important to Canadians who are nearing retirement age, with 31 per cent of those aged 45-54 saying debt repayment is their top priority. They are not mutually exclusive and you can pay down debt and save for the future at the same time.

How do I consolidate my debt? 1. Begin by understanding where you stand with your home and mortgage. Approximately, what is the current value of your home? What is the current balance of your mortgage? What are your monthly payments? When is your mortgage up for renewal and what is the balance at renewal time? And what is the interest rate? If you are in the 3rd or 4th year of a 5 year term, chances are your interest rate is higher than interest rates for the same term today. 2. Calculate your current home equity by using the approximate value of your home and deducting your current mortgage balance. A general guideline is to allow you to access up to 80% of your home’s value. There are options if more is required. 3. Next, look at your other debt such as credit cards, lines of credit, car loans, student loans,

loans for motorcycle, snowmobile etc. Know the current balance, monthly payment and interest rate for each. 4. Get advice from a Mortgage professional. They have access to multiple lenders, lower interest rates and a network of professionals such as Financial planners, Estate planners they can refer to. They can also meet with you in the comfort of your own home/castle. Banks often have stricter guidelines and are limited to their own financial products. 5. After talking to A Mortgage professional they will help you choose the right option for your circumstances. You could consolidate some or all of your debt into your current mortgage and have just one payment. You may also decide on a Home Equity Line of Credit or a Home Equity loan. Everyone is dealing with a different set of circumstances and must determine which is best for them. Do not hesitate to ask for help with this. It’s a big decision and potentially a life changing one. You will not be judged. You will be supported. 6. Pay off your debt with the money you received and plan what you will do with the extra cash flow from having, ideally, just one or maybe two payments overall. 7. Relax and enjoy the peace of mind.

and filled with concrete until the entire building envelope is complete. Additional building benefits: Disaster-resilient: ICF walls withstand winds of up to 402 kilometers per hour and give you a fire protection rating as long as four hours. Energy efficiency: Premium insulation delivers an energy-efficiency rating as high as R50 due to the thermal mass of the concrete (compared to an average R-20 in wood structures), and that equates to reducing household energy bills by as much as 70 percent. And if optional inserts are added to the ICF forms, this efficiency is improved even more. Occupant comfort: Outside cold can easily travel through the typical wood-framed wall, causing uneven temperatures inside your home. However, the monolithic ICF wall eliminates drafts and cold spots and it is an effective sound barrier, filtering out unwanted noise. Green living: Concrete is a sustainable material; trees are not needed; the system uses only recycled polymers and steel; the building process creates less waste than traditional methods; and the occupants use fewer fossil fuels for a much smaller carbon footprint. Short- and long-term value: A concrete home is built to last and retain its value longer. In the short-term, the superior durability of concrete walls require less maintenance, repair and money to maintain than wood structures.

Derek McCauley

(MS) — A home today must be more than just aesthetically pleasing. The costs of fuel consumption and extreme-storm damage, plus costs in the way of carbon footprints, are making all of us insist on far more property benefits, including superior durability and resilience from pending disasters. “In that case, open the door to a home built with concrete reinforced walls, instead of wood, and see how you will receive greater safety, comfort, investment value, and energy efficiency,” says Todd Blyth at Nudura, a leading name in building technology. “Concrete is a major solution for weather extremes, and for more than a decade now, the building system using ICFs (insulated concrete forms) has proven to deliver the most durable building frame.” The ICF principle is simple, Blyth says. The walls are constructed with pre-assembled, interlocking units (similar to Lego), so they’re easily transported to any building site. Each form consists of two panels of thick foam (expanded polystyrene) connected with a patented web system. Guided by the architectural design and beauty aspects you request, the ICFs are stacked, steel reinforced,
