OPA seeks public’s input on proposed Dorland IWTs

Proudly Independent

Dashing Through The Snow At Canal Bash

Meeting to be held Feb. 4 at SPC BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Ontario Power Authority is hosting a community meeting in Napanee next week to gain information regarding Large Renewable Procurement projects and to seek recommendations regarding future development of energy facilities. Many locals, including MPP Randy Hillier, are taking this opportunity to voice concerns regarding Industrial Wind Turbines, including Gilead Power’s Dorland Wind Energy Facility, proposed for the South Fredericksburgh area. If this project moves forward, it will spread over approximately 10,000 hectares of privately owned land. Jim Barrie, a homeowner in the proposed Dorland IWT area, said he plans to attend the Feb. 4 meeting at 6 p.m. at the Strathcona Paper Centre. He plans to speak to the OPA regarding why locals are opposed to IWT in the area, as well as why the Town of Greater Napanee has declared the municipality an “unwilling host.” Barrie is encouraging people from across the region, even those in Picton, Wolfe Island and Amherst Island, to attend the meeting and ask questions. He also expects more IWT projects will be proposed after this meeting. “I think what’s going to happen, is as soon as this meeting is over, within a month or two they’re going to release 200 wind turbine

contracts for proposals. Gilead is going to apply in this new proposal for this Dorland wind project in this area and they’re going to try to do everything they can to try to push through. There will also be some new solar projects being applied for too,” said Barrie. “Unfortunately, this is going to be an uphill fight because Gilead is still going to try to put these in. It’s unfortunate.” Barrie said what bothers him the most is that IWTs in Ontario only require a 550-metre setback, which in his opinion, is far too short. Ontario has one of the shortest setback requirements for IWTs worldwide. “The biggest problem is they’re so close to people’s homes. That’s what’s really got everybody stirred up,” said Barrie. Property values and health concerns are some of the negative impacts Barrie said the 500-metre setback has had on those in IWT areas. This meeting will be the first time the OPA has held a public meeting in Napanee since the Dorland Wind Energy project was proposed in Greater Napanee. Hillier, who has shown his concerns regarding IWTs in the region, has confirmed that he plans to attend the OPA meeting next Tuesday. More information on the meeting can be found on the OPA website, at: www.powerauthority.on.ca/ large-renewable-procurement.

It was a white Canal Bash in Newburgh on Saturday, as steady snow fell throughout the day. There was still plenty of activity during the 21st annual event as a large crowd braved the elements. The fresh powder was perfect for youngsters like Griffen Searle (left) and Mak Searle and their toboggan as they took on Snow Mountain. For more on the event see page 12.

Deseronto council

Unexpected costs throw wrench in Deseronto’s plans Council in the midsts of hammering out town’s 2014 operating budget

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

he Town of Deseronto has started compiling its 2014 budget and plans to have all departments’ budgets in by Jan. 31. However, the municipality may be up against a few unexpected costs in the parks and recreation department, as well as the fire department, which may hinder this year’s

overall budget. During last week’s council meeting, Town of Deseronto clerk Bryan Brooks explained most departments had provided a draft budget and the rest would be in by the end of this week. Councillor Dennis Tompkins, who sits on the parks and recreation department, said council could be faced with up to $70,000 in capital funding in 2014 and 2015. That budget had not yet been

provided to council and town staff. One of the items Tompkins informed council would need replacing is a compressor panel located in the Deseronto Community Recreation Centre, which was installed in 1974. He said the service life for this item is usually about 20-25 years. The cost of replacing the panel is approximately $28,000$30,000. “We could see a savings in hydro by replacing this

panel,” Tompkins said. Another item was the arena’s secondary dehumidifier, which was installed in 1995. The item is not due to be replaced until 2015 but Tompkins said if the other dehumidifier stops working, the secondary one will not be able to handle dehumidifying the arena all on its own. Tompkins said the price of another dehumidifier is about $30,000 to purchase, however, he noted there are also leas-

ing options the municipality could consider to avoid a large, outright cost.

“We could see a savings in hydro by replacing this panel.” Dennis Thompkins, Councillor The third item Tompkins brought to council’s attention was a compressor motor, which is needed by 2015. He said this item should last six to eight years and on average costs $8,000 to $10,000 to replace. “If it goes, we have no backup,” he told council. Tompkins said the rest

of the parks and recreation department’s budget is on track but it has not yet been determined how much (or any) revenue the department should be able to produce in 2014. Councillor Dan Johnston said he expects the fire department’s budget to also be higher than in 2013 due to equipment needing to be replaced to be at par with today’s standards. That budget had not yet been completed by last Tuesday’s council meeting. Johnston said he estimates the department could be handed a bill for $130,000 to get up to today’s standards; however, a four-year leasing program is also available. Council has not yet set a date for the 2014 budget to be discussed in a public meeting.

Opinion send letters to beaver@bellnet.ca

EDITORIAL air or not, Jamaica isn't typically regarded in high esteem with the rest of the world. Its tropical climate is often overshadowed by overwhelming crime and poverty statistics. That’s part of what’s so heart warming about the Jamaican bobsleigh team’s story. After qualifying for next month’s Olympic Games in Sochi they were faced with perhaps their most difficult opponent yet: a lack of money. Short the estimated $80,000 they’d need to make the trip, the two man team of Winston Watts and Marvin Dixon appeared destined to forfeit their spot in the games. In a plot straight out of the cult classic film Cool Runnings, people all around the world stepped up and pledged money to cover their travel and training costs. In less than a week they were able to raise over $120,000 and have officially accepted a spot in next month’s competition. Granted, there’s more serious and pressing causes that could use that kind of money. Sending two athletes to the Olympics won’t cure any diseases or solve world hunger, but if it helps unite mankind even just a tiny bit, it’s worthwhile. The national pride felt here in Canada during the Vancouver games were unlike anything this country had ever seen. Coast to coast the country beamed with pride as our athletes captured 14 gold medals, four more than any other country. Hopefully even just a small sample size of that same pride will be felt in Jamaica next month. Watts and Dixon may not be medal favourites, but they will no doubt have a huge following in Sochi. Even if they defy the odds and capture gold, it won’t magically solve all of the country’s problems. There’s no hiding the fact that it’s an impoverished nation with one of the highest homicide rates in the world. Perhaps at least the country’s younger generation will be inspired by this story and see what can happen if they work hard towards their dreams. Maybe instead of turning to crime they’ll take up sports instead. Maybe they’ll be inspired to take pride in their country and take steps to make it a safer place. The late Nelson Mandela was steadfast in his belief that sports can have the power to change the world. It may not have happened overnight, but his words rang true for South Africa. This much is clear: a couple of positive role models certainly won't hurt.

Response – Just a bad place for a landfill This letter is in reply to the Letter to the Editor entitled “Just a Bad place for a landfill”. The author would have readers believe that we have withheld information from the Public. He also suggests that groundwater investigations would not have occurred if not for the efforts of those opposed to our projects. Neither of these statements is true. We communicate on an ongoing basis with our neighbours, our Community Liaison Committee, the Towns of Greater Napanee and Deseronto, the Township of Tyendinaga, and the Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte regarding our ongoing groundwater investigations and the potential for any impacts in the local area. Many years ago, we

brought the issue of potential offsite impacts to the attention of these parties. We have repeatedly offered places on our Community liaison Committee to the Concerned Citizens of Tyendinaga and Environs and the Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte. They have continuously refused. Fortunately, the Environmental Review Tribunal mediation process has brought all the parties to the table. Meaningful dialogue and progress has occurred in identifying off-site groundwater impacts and approaches for monitoring and managing these impacts. Waste Management has gone beyond regulatory requirements for monitoring and testing

Residents should attend OPA meeting next week Residents should be aware that Ontario Power Authority is holding a regional meeting Feb. 4, 6-8 p.m. at the Strathcona Paper Centre, Lafarge Hall. OPA is asking for public comment and municipal involvement

prior to releasing new Green Energy Contracts this year. We think OPA will release contracts for 200 Industrial Wind Turbines for proposal this year. Companies like Gilead Power

will put forward their proposal for the Dorland Industrial Wind Turbine project and other projects. OPA will consider the projects based on new selection criteria for approval in 2015.

This is a good opportunity for residents of Napanee, Amherst Island, Picton, Wolfe Island and Loyalist Township to air their concerns on theses contracts, past and present. We have contacted the

Town of Greater Napanee council and have asked for a representative to read a statement concerning Napanee belonging to the Unwilling Host Movement and to present a letter of record to the OPA

committee. Most people are unaware of this meeting and its implications. Come and voice your concerns. -Concerned residents of Napanee: Jim and Debby Barrie

LSDB board elections nearing As Chair of the Limestone District School Board, I know how important our schools and the education of our children and youth are to each and every one of us. School Board Trustees are committed to promoting and enhancing public education and ensuring the best possible learning environment for every student. As municipal elections draw near, which include the election of School Board Trustees, we encourage all candidates running to represent constituents at all levels of government across our school district to learn more about the significant issues facing public education today. Some of these issues include closing student achievement gaps, declining enrolment and school accommodation. Declining enrolment, aging and surplus school facilities, and rising renewal and operation costs are certainties in our future. Providing our students with meaningful and relevant program choices and opportunities within this environment is indeed a challenging task. Maintaining the status quo is no longer feasible, or responsible, if we are to preserve the quality of public education that the community has rightfully come to expect. Working with our communities, we must address all accommodation and program needs

throughout our school district. The Board has recently conducted five reviews that have resulted in adjusted boundaries, school consolidations and the construction of three new schools – the most recent of which is the recently opened Granite Ridge Education Centre in Sharbot Lake – to ensure we are providing the best educational environments possible in the face of ongoing program demands, student enrolment and aging infrastructure, while considering the reality of viable funding

opportunities. We are currently seeking a site for a new $9-million elementary school to consolidate First Avenue Public School and Frontenac Public School and provide students in Kingston North with an optimum environment in which to learn and grow. We are also awaiting word from the Ministry of Education on funding for a new secondary school to consolidate Kingston Collegiate & Vocational Institute and Queen Elizabeth Collegiate & Vocational Institute. The decision to consolidate the two schools

and create a new, composite school that would be of sufficient enrolment to enable the provision of substantive course offerings in all learning pathways to meet the diverse learning needs of all students in the area was approved unanimously by the Board of Trustees in June 2013. At that time, the Board also approved a review of French programming across the district, which is now underway. The Board will be reaching out to the community shortly to gather your input and feedback. In partnership with our

students, staff, parents and various community partners, School Board Trustees have accomplished much to support public education. While we still have much to do, we are committed to embracing our challenges and leading change responsibly to best serve our students, now and in

the future. Election Candidates may reach me by calling the LDSB Education Centre at 613.544.6920 ext. 348 and leaving a message or by emailing frenchl@limestone.on.ca . Sincerely, Laurie French Chair, Limestone District School Board

Letter to the Editor

McGuinty should pay back severance Whig Jan 6, 2014. W. Kinsella refers to Rob Ford as a serial liar. "He is lazy, he is dishonest and he is an embarrassment", says Kinsella. This is true but what about his Liberal buddies who have in Ontario now, and federally previously, flushed billions upon billions of dollars down the sewer to buy Liberal seats? The Ont government intentionally tried to cover up the billion dollar gas plant boondoggle - they lied. They first claimed that it would cost $32 million as if wasting this much to buy Liberal seats was just fine and dandy.

Senior staff in McGuinty's office deleted emails and ran for cover. This attempted coverup was the modus operandi of McGuinty's reign. He further proved that he was a serial liar during the gas plant scandal. When he realized the jig was up he ran away from his responsibilities like a terrified rat leaving a sinking ship. And to make matters worse he had the chutzpah to take a $300,000.00 severance as he slinked out the door - a reward for bankrupting Ontario and doing his job so well and ethically. Only a greasy politician

with the moral fibre of a gutter snake would stoop to this septic level. Meanwhile W. Kinsella and the mainstream media concentrate on Rob Ford and Mike Duffy while the more egregious actions of Liberals are given a pass. Why aren't the media and the people of Ontario screaming bloody murder and insisting that the Liberals pay for the gas plant scandal in which all this money was wasted solely to benefit the Liberal Party. And why isn't anyone insisting McGuinty pay back the severance - who

gets a severance when they screw up the province, refuse to face up to their responsibilities, and quit their job? Remember McGuinty promised to provide funding to help children with autism and then did nothing? How could he afford this when blowing billions on the myriad of failed projects the Liberals dreamed up and screwed up. The hypocrisy is compounded in the gas plant fiasco considering natural gas is one of the cleanest fuels and the Toronto area is where the energy is

needed. The GTA voters who demanded no gas plants be built in their back yards are also hypocrites - the plethora traffic and tanker trucks carrying dangerous goods and belching out pollution 24/7 make the problem of gas plants pale in comparison. And now the Liberal are paying wind turbine operators to not produce electricity. Alice really is looking through the looking glass and George Orwell got his dates wrong. Dwight Hogg, Napanee

OH, DEAR – I HAVE DEER n March 27th I have the pleasure of joining native plant grower Bea Heissler of Frankford in doing a presentation on backyard naturalization for the Hastings Stewardship Council in Thurlow. My portion will touch on backyard wildlife, and how to plant selectively in attracting those species that we want to see. One may have lofty reasons for naturalizing their backyard, but the efforts are for nothing without some wildlife to complete the scene. In particular, we will be looking at the danger of ending up with too much of a good thing, when our well-meaning efforts result in higher numbers of a particular species than what we want, and how to work within the four basic components of wildlife habitat to “manage” the numbers of those species of wildlife we have attracted. And we will definitely talk about live trapping which is probably the most inhumane and callous way of dealing with unwanted wildlife, and we’ll explain why.

Doubtless, we will get into whether or not to initiate winter feeding programs and the ethics of doing so – are we helping or just interfering? Most of us feed birds, a few may even offer feed to squirrels and chipmunks, but how about the deer that drop in? Do we feed the occasional deer that ventures into our yard? What do we offer, and how much? This won’t be about full scale feeding programs that may disrupt deer migration to natural wintering grounds (deer yards), or attracting such a high number that they may become a smorgasbord and a feeding ground for predators. There are examples of large amounts of hay being fed at deer yards that actually resulted in starvation when stomachs became packed with indigestible hay. We’re just referring to the few that may wander into your backyard, if you live near where deer are known to frequent, and choosing to feed them. Right or wrong? Let’s start by saying that deer

Terry Sprague

Outdoor Rambles seldom need our help. The late December ice storm might be an exception, but deer are pretty much designed for whatever winter throws at them. Deer shed their hair coat in the fall. The summer hair has solid shafts and lacks an undercoat, but the greybrown winter coat has hollow hair shafts and a dense, wool-like under fur, providing effective insulation. They also have special

muscles that can adjust the angle of their hair shafts to obtain maximum insulation. In the fall, deer gorge increasing fat accumulation by as much as 30%. They seek out proteinrich food sources in the spring and summer for growth, and they start looking for more starches and sugars in the fall and winter to help them build fat stores. Protein-rich foods include alfalfa and clover. Starchy or sugary foods include corn, grapes and acorns. During the winter, they reduce food intake (regardless of availability), relying on their fat reserves for as much as 40% of daily nutritional needs. Deer conserve energy during winter months by becoming sedentary and restricting their movements to the deer yard where they have access to browse and cover, and survive on woody browse – twigs, buds and stems. So, by offering food at this time of year, their digestion process can be upset, unless you know what you’re doing, and

understand the digestive requirements of deer in winter. For example, while deer may consume corn in the fall, offering large amounts in the winter can be fatal as a deer’s winter digestive system is not equipped to handle a high carbohydrate diet such as corn. Deer have issues with unconventional diets. Their systems depend on a variety of bacteria and microorganisms in their rumen – their stomachs – to break down the food into usable components. Acidosis – a condition when there is too much acid in the body fluids, as well as diarrhea, may occur if they are fed the wrong foods, like excessive amounts of cereal grains. If artificial food is offered, then it must be introduced very gradually to supplement what the deer are already obtaining through natural browse. Most farm feed stores sell deer pellets that are specially formulated with vitamins and minerals and which can be offered safely to deer in winter.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 50 Years Ago January 22, 1964 n Former Prime Minister John Diefenbaker stopped by Napanee, speaking to a crowd of over 1,000 in the auditorium of Napanee District Secondary School. On the issue of strained English and French relations he said “Today Canada is divided. Is this nation to become prey to separatism?” During his visit the Conservative leader went ‘mainstreeting’, chatting with members of the public. Accompanying him was A. Douglas Alkenbrack, an MP for Price EdwardLennox. Diefenbaker served as Canada’s Prime Minister from 1957 to ‘63. n The yet to be constructed Lennox and Addington County General Hospital selected its board. Construction for the hospital was expected to get underway later that summer. n William T.G. Tice was appointed principal for the soon-to-be-opened North Bathurst Secondary School. The new school was scheduled to open the following September. n Fires left two local families in Morven and Deseronto homeless. No one was injured in either blaze, but both houses were gutted. n A pair of Bath men were rushed to hospital when the car they were travelling in slid off the road and into the frozen waters of Lake Ontario. They were taken to KGH.

35 Years Ago January 24, 1979 n Recreation director Harry MacDonald responded to allegations that the construction of King St. Park cost more than the $19,000 he listed in his September budget. He said the cost was offset by grants. n Preparations were underway for the upcoming Napanee Winter Carnival. The four finalists for the Carnival Queen contest were announced as Sue Valentine, Cynthia Way, Sheryl Gurnsey and Susan Brodie. n A minor hockey tournament at the Napanee Arena drew 1,000 spectators. The twoday hockey tournament featured its best turnout to date. n Tamworth’s Sheffield Camden Community Centre learned it would host the Dubendorf Midget Hockey Club from Zurich, Switzerland. The Swiss team was scheduled to take on the Tamworth Midgets the following February, as well as attend a welcoming banquet at the Tamworth Legion Hall.

I spend a lot of time thinking about our youth. Perhaps having 4 kids in their twenties stimulates much of this thought. And right now I am a little confused. At a time when Canadians tend to eat few meals together there has never been a greater interest in food. We are shopping at the local farmers market more than ever. There is a growing interest in food preparation (check out the many popular celebrity chef shows on TV) and I know from professional experience that the interest in growing fruits and veggies at home is at an all time high. On the other hand, instant noodles, frozen pizza and most any meal that you can heat up in the microwave are growth categories in the grocery business, I am told by a reliable source. So if we take the time to reflect on the value that we put on food I ask the question “are we becoming a nation of snackers and instant food junkies or are we making wiser decisions about our food, its origins and quality than generations before us?” Feeding Ourselves I have really enjoyed reading the book “City Farmer” Adventures in Urban Food Growing, by my friend Lorraine Johnson. Lorraine is a passionate gardener and writer. As with all of her writing she has researched and written on this topic thoughtfully and thoroughly. Here are some highlights: - The city of Vancouver has enough land available that its inhabitants can grow all of their own vegetables within city limits. - In future we will not

ping/preparing our food we are taking time away from what, exactly? TV time? Computer time? Spectator sports? It is mid winter, a perfect time for gardeners and non gardeners alike to take the time to think about our food culture. The simple acts of shopping local, swapping recipes, sharing the harvest with friends and neighbours, exchanging growing tips over the back fence or visiting the local farmers’ market have merits that extend beyond the immediate experience. All of this, when taken in sum is a giant part of the social binding that glues us together as a community. Plan Now to Plant Later. I am planning my veggie garden now and ordering my seeds. This is the beginning of a year long process of sowing, growing, nurturing and harvest that over 30% of Canadians will engage in this year. It is a process that brings families and communities together. Much like sharing a meal around the same table brings us together. Final word to Lorraine Johnson, “Each carrot grown, each backyard egg collected, each community plot tended and each rooftop tomato plucked is fertile nourishment for the growing revolution that’s changing our relationship with food. And connection with food doesn’t get much closer than hands in the dirt.” Mark Cullen appears on Canada AM every Wednesday morning at 8:40. He is spokesperson for Home Hardware Lawn and Garden.

Upcoming Regional Community Meeting on the Large Renewable Energy Procurement Process The Ontario Power Authority (OPA) is developing a new competitive procurement process for large renewable energy projects and is holding four regional community meetings to continue the dialogue with Ontarians. On June 12, 2013, the Minister of Energy directed the OPA to remove projects larger than 500 kilowatts from the Feed-in Tariff program and to develop a new Large Renewable Procurement (LRP) process that considers input from people, municipalities, stakeholders and First Nation and Métis communities. Following an initial dialogue with stakeholders and communities, the OPA provided the Minister with an interim recommendations report on August 30, 2013.

The OPA invites you to attend the eastern Ontario community meeting to provide input into the development of the LRP process in advance of its anticipated launch in 2014.

Snow can’t stop Canal Bash Ottawa man drives 68 over through blizzard

Attendance record for Newburgh event

Weather keeps Napanee OPP busy Police Beat

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Saturday marked the 21st annual Newburgh Canal Bash and despite a heavy blizzard throughout most of the day, over 1,000 participated in the winter festival. Rick Doyle, one of the Newburgh Canal Bash organizers, said attendance was so high this year that breakfast volunteers made more pancakes than ever before. “I was really surprised at the turnout for the pancake breakfast because the roads were really quite nasty first thing in the morning but we had an excellent turnout for the pancake breakfast and I think we set a record,” said Doyle. Newburgh Fire fighters estimated about 1,200 people participated. “We had a pretty steady turnout,” said Doyle. The snow came down hard in Newburgh until late afternoon, when it cleared in time for a bonfire and fireworks. “A good crowd for the fireworks and they were

s though blowing snow and ice weren’t enough of an obstacle to safe driving this weekend, Napanee OPP have charged one driver with travelling 68 km/h over the posted speed limit on Hwy 401, just east of Napanee. At 1:15 p.m., just as officers were clearing up the highway from a closure due to collisions west of Napanee, one officer clocked a westbound BMW at 168 km/h. The driver, a 20 yearold Ottawa area man, had his car seized for seven days and has been issued a summons to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in Napanee on Feb. 27. On Friday at 10:30 p.m. officers with the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory Police and Napanee OPP were dispatched to a motor vehicle collision at the intersection of Old Hwy 2 and Hwy 49 in Tyendinaga Township. A female had been driving a Dodge Journey northbound on Hwy 49 when she failed to stop at the stop

Horse-drawn wagon rides was just one of many attractions at Newburgh’s Canal Bash, held this past Saturday. great, the fireworks in the snow. GT Machining (and Fabricating Ltd.) donated the fireworks for us and it’s just amazing to see the show we were able to put on,” said Doyle. Horse-drawn wagon rides on the snow was a huge hit, as well as the kids’ snow hill. “The snow pile in the park was a huge hit. It seemed that there were

always kids climbing on the snow and coming down on flying saucers. They had a good time,” said Doyle. The biggest challenge for the day was keeping the pond clean, explained Doyle. People were constantly shovelling snow to the sides of the pond, where the snow was blown off the pond. Weather conditions prevented the pond from being flooded all day,

but Doyle said the ice held up and provided great entertainment all day. Canal Bash is put on by the Newburgh Volunteer Firefighters’ Association & the Newburgh Minor Softball Association to bring the community together for a day of fun and mingling with local firefighters. Doyle said this weekend’s event proved to do just that.

The NGS will provide reliable on-demand power to Ontario homes, schools, institutions and businesses by replacing retired coal and nuclear capacity, supporting nuclear refurbishment and backstopping wind and solar resources. The NGS is subject to the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act and requires an Environmental Assessment be undertaken in accordance with Regulation 116/01, including the Ministry of the Environment’s “Guide to Environmental Assessment Requirements for Electricity Projects.” The Environmental Screening/Review Process under the Guide has two possible stages – the Screening stage and the Environmental Review stage. TransCanada has chosen to undertake the comprehensive Environmental Review rather than a Screening Report.

This notice is to advise the public and all other stakeholders that the ERR and Supporting Documents for the NGS will be available for a 30-day review and comment period from January 21 to February 20, 2014.

TransCanada is continuing its work to build, own and operate the NGS, a 900-megawatt (MW) combined cycle, natural gas-fuelled electricity generating station in the Town of Greater Napanee, County of Lennox and Addington.

The results of the studies undertaken for the project indicate that the NGS will not have significant net environmental effects, both during construction and operation. TransCanada intends to proceed with the NGS subject to mitigation, impact management measures and obtaining the necessary approvals.

The driver of the Dodge Journey was arrested for impaired driving and transported to the Belleville police station for breath tests. As a result of investigation the driver was charged with one count of Impaired Operation of a motor vehicle contrary to Section 253(1)(a) of the Criminal Code, Operate Motor Vehicle with over 80 milligrams of alcohol in a 100 millilitres of blood and one count of Dangerous Driving contrary to Section 249(1)(a) of Criminal Code. She was released on a Promise to Appear to attend Napanee court on Feb. 25. Officers dealt with dozens of motor vehicle collisions this weekend. Many of these collisions can be contributed, at least in part, to speeds that are too fast for the conditions of the roadway. Drivers are reminded to adjust their driving habits and anticipate sometimes rapid changes in road conditions.

Heart and Stroke launches Person-to-Person Campaign Door-to-door canvassers collecting for life saving heart disease and stroke research

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

olunteers for the local chapter of the Heart and Stroke Foundation will be pounding the pavement next month, going door to door seeking donations for life saving research. Known as the Person to Person Campaign, the fundraiser is held every February as part of the Heart and Stroke’s Heart Month. “We try to cover as many routes as we can,” said Landan BurnsKeaney, area manager for the Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox and Addington branch of the Heart and Stroke Foundation. “(The canvassers) are collecting donations for research. That’s happening in our entire area, including Napanee. We have a lot of

great volunteers in Napanee that donate their time and energy to help us out with that.” The campaign, which dates back to 1958, is one of the biggest of the year for the foundation. They’ve set an aggressive goal of $171,000 raised by month’s end. Along with door to door, there is also an online aspect to the campaign as well. By logging on to www.HeartandStroke.ca/h

elp, people can pledge money and receive an instant tax credit via email. They can also do online canvassing as well. “People can donate through family and friends and send personal e-mails out to people if they want to fundraise that way,” said Burns-Keaney. “It’s effective and there’s no boundaries. You could be across the world and it doesn’t matter where you are, you could still use it.” Counting the online portion, the campaign is aiming to bring in $184,000 altogether. Proceeds raised during the month will go towards

research facilities such as the one at Kingston’s Queen’s University. Their area of study includes not only preventing heart and stroke diseases, but helping victims cope with it. As part of their February long campaign, they’re encouraging members of the community to get involved in any way possible. Along with donating, Burns-Keaney suggests hosting local fundraisers as well. Just as important as the money is the awareness they raise of deadly diseases. Given that one in seven Canadian lives are taken through heart dis-

ease or stroke, it’s not hard to find motivation to fight back. It’s estimated that every seven minutes a Canadian succumbs to heart disease or stroke. About 90 per cent of Canadians have at least one risk factor. Although February figures to be a busy time for the foundation, they have their eyes towards the summer as well. June 14 will mark the return of the

Big Bike to Napanee. Teams are already registering for the event, which sees groups of volunteers pedal a large bike through communities across Canada to raise awareness for the foundation. They’re hoping to raise $9.5 million across Canada. Anyone interested in forming a local team or assisting can call the KFL&A branch at 613-3842871.

What is a Mortgage Agent?

Ralph McKenny

Mortgage Agent Martel Mortgages FSCO #11963 (W) 1-855-320-2464 Ext #112 (C) 613-449-0680 www.martelmortgages.ca/ralphmckenny

It is -32 Celsius as I sit and write this article. Despite chilling temperatures and the sight of snow and thick ice, spring is just around the corner. For many, this may mean shopping for a new house, cottage or maybe renovating the home they have. Nothing like tearing the kitchen or bathroom apart to make a home feel new again. We’ll soon see advertisements for the Home Shows. Thicker Real Estate sections in the newspaper. It’s an exciting time for those purchasing for the first time, moving to a new part of town or a new city or for those looking for that recreational or income property. And unless you won last week’s Lotto 6/49, it also means you need a mortgage. A mortgage is a loan that most of us require to buy a home and it is repaid or “amortized” over a number of years. A mortgage is one of the most important financial decisions an individual or family will make. Yet for many, the process is bewildering, uncertain and stressful. So many decisions, unfamiliar terms, unknown or hidden costs, various people and deadlines to meet. Documents, documents and more documents. “What term and amortization do I need?”

“Do I need open or closed and fixed or variable? Aren’t they the same thing?” “Am I the mortgagee or the mortgagor?” “CMHC. Who?” “Interest rate differential what?” While the mortgage process can be confusing, first time home buyer or not, it doesn’t need to be. With a little preparation and the proper support it is possible to get through the mortgage process and into your new property, stress free. “How?” you ask. Put a team together that should include a Real Estate Agent, a Lawyer and a Mortgage Broker/Agent. It truly is a team effort & since you are the team owner and coach you want the best players. Get referrals from family, friends, colleagues, realtors or lawyers. Most understand the role of a Real Estate Agent & Lawyer. But what about the Mortgage Broker/Agent. What do they do? Approximately a third of Canadians use a Mortgage Broker/Agent. In the USA more than 80% use Brokers/Agents. So what do Americans know that we don’t? Mortgage Broker? Mortgage Agent? What’s the difference? A Mortgage Broker is a business or an individual who is licensed to have Mortgage Agents work for them. The brokerage is licensed by Financial Services

Commission of Ontario (FSCO). A Mortgage Agent is an individual who specializes in mortgages on behalf of the brokerage and must also be licensed by FSCO. They will assist you whether buying a property or renewing your current mortgage. Historically we just went to our local Bank. But as more and more are learning, we limit ourselves by doing so because we only have access to the Banks products and rates and Bank employees do not have the same educational or licensing requirements. The Mortgage Agent should be the first person on your team. They will help you determine how much of a loan you qualify for before you begin house hunting. They will outline the associated costs and help you prepare a budget if necessary. Mortgage Agents represent all mortgage shoppers regardless of credit history or financial status. Everyone’s financial situation and needs are unique to them and since the Agent & their brokerage have such a large network of Lenders, they are able and accustomed to assisting clients from all walks of life and in various circumstances. Mortgage Agents are industry educated and licensed. They are the true “mortgage specialists” who have access to multiple mortgage products and interest rates.

Their job is to represent the best interests of their clients by understanding their needs then shop for a mortgage and negotiate on the client’s behalf. In most cases that would mean finding the best mortgage product at the lowest interest rate. The best news? For the average property transaction, there is no cost to you because Mortgage Agents are paid by the Lender. Choose your team carefully and find the players who will work hard for you. Resources you may find helpful are www.fsco.gov.on.ca and www.caamp.org. Buying property, including the mortgage process can be exciting and fun: even when it’s -32 Celsius. Compliments of Ralph McKenny, a local Mortgage Agent with Martel Mortgages FSCO License 11963. Questions can be addressed to rmckenny@martelmortgages.ca.

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

n desperate need of two points to keep pace in the playoff hunt, the Napanee Raiders paid no heed to the Deseronto Storm’s dismal record in advance of their Sunday meeting, throttling their guests 10-1. It was a much needed win for Napanee after losing a hard fought 5-3 game in Picton the previous Thursday night. The split leaves Napanee two points out of a playoff spot with five regular season games left to play. Mitch Pearce kicked off Sunday’s onslaught with a power-play goal at the 6:44 mark of the first followed by goals from Bud Norris, Keenan Murray and Tyler Romain. All four finished the game with two goals each. Zach Knapp-Hermer and Ryan Casselman had singles. Johnny Maracle was the only member of the Storm to find the back of the net, rifling a shot that was in and out of Josh Lasher’s glove. The puck sprung loose and over the shoulder of the Napanee goalie at the 5:55 mark of the second, cutting the lead to 5-1 at the time. “We weren’t taking them for granted,” Raiders head coach Mike Hartwick said of the now 3-29 Storm. “There was a message sent prior to the game to continue what we were doing and working hard and playing as a team. I thought we did that for the most part. There were minutes in the second that I didn’t think were very good but for the most part we did what we set out to do.” It was a nice bounce back win for Napanee, who saw a season best three game win streak halted in their previous game against Picton. The Pirates held a 3-0 lead before Casselman broke the shutout with a power-play goal midway through the second. Norris made it interesting with an early third period strike to cut the hole to 3-2. Picton’s Chris Jones and Napanee’s Austin Boulard traded goals to make it 4-3 with three and a half minutes left to play. Try as they might, the Raiders just couldn’t overpower the top ranked Pirates and wrestle away at least a point. Ryan Sizer added a huge insurance marker with just over a minute left to seal the regulation win. Kyle Copeland

Napanee’s Bud Norris (centre) battles Deseronto’s Jack Garrow for control of the bouncing puck in front of Storm goalie Brock Tufts, Sunday afternoon at the Strathcona Paper Centre. Norris had two goals in a lopsided 10-1 Raiders’ victory, pushing Deseronto’s losing streak to 15. took the loss, stopping 35 Pirate shots. Andrew Pearson was just a little better at the other end of the ice, stopping 29. “We got off to a terrible start for the first 10 minutes,” Hartwick said of Thursday’s game. “For the rest of the game we played pretty hard. We did have some chances and got real close but we just made some mistakes and they capitalized. That’s what they do. If you make mistakes and turn the puck over where you can’t turn it over, they generally score.” Hartwick was pleased with the team’s grit to comeback and make it a game, but says the team will have to play better if they want to compete with the first-place club. They’re now 0-7 against the Pirates this year. With Sunday’s win the Raiders moved to within two points (33 to 35) of the fourth place Campbellford Rebels. The Rebels were idle this weekend after their home-and-home games with Deseronto were cancelled due to

weather. Napanee has just five games left to make up ground while the Rebels have seven. Just ahead of the

“There was a message sent prior to the game to continue what we were doing and working hard and playing as a team.” Mike Hartwick, Raiders coach Rebels is Port Hope, who has 36 points and nine games left to play. The Amherstview Jets sit second with 37 points and seven left to play. Amherstview and Port Hope were scheduled to meet Sunday evening but snow squalls forced the game to be postponed. The Pirates continue their historic pace with 65 points and six games left to play. They are on pace to eclipse the 2008 Raiders’ Empire B League mark of

74 points. They’d need at least four wins and one overtime loss to match that mark. The Pirates haven’t lost since a 2-1 overtime defeat at the hands of the Rebels back on Nov. 15. As much as they’d like to preserve their franchise record, the Raiders have much bigger fish to fry. Once on a path to be certain ‘also-rans’, the Raiders turned up the heat of late, winning six of their last nine to improve to 15-17-12 overall. Hartwick credits defensive work of Joel Ferland and Jake Falcao as one of the big reasons for the turn around. “It’s nice to see the back end continue to play hard,” said Hartwick. “They’ve been our unsung heroes during this stretch.” Napanee will continue their push for the post season tomorrow night when they travel to Deseronto for a 7:30 p.m. puck drop at the Deseronto Community Centre. On Saturday they head to Amherstview for a 7:30 p.m. tilt at the W.J. Henderson Arena.

From there they host Picton on Feb. 7 and Port Hope on Feb. 11, both at 7:30 p.m. Napanee also has a yetto-be-rescheduled game with the Storm left to play. Their Dec. 20 meeting, scheduled to be played in Deseronto, was cancelled due to weather. Though they will be enemies on Friday, the Raiders will become huge Storm fans the next night. That’s because Deseronto will head to Port Hope for a 7 p.m. puck drop. The Storm also have the two remaining Rebel matchups that were cancelled. Deseronto has been a thorn in Port Hope’s side this year, earning two of their three season wins at their expense. A 4-3 win over the Panthers on Nov. 16 still stands as Deseronto’s most recent victory. On the year they are a respectable 2-4 against the cats. The orange and black have undergone several roster moves since thier last win however, trading several veterans to contending teams.

Aside from Saturday’s match the Storm will also face Port Hope one more time this year. Their last scheduled game of the year is a Feb. 14 meeting in Port Hope. Trailing fifth place Napanee by 27 points, the Storm have nothing but pride left on the line. They are still one win shy of besting last year’s total, their first in the Empire B League. Raider notes….Prior to the Napanee and Storm game the Junior Raiders took on the Stirling Blues, losing 5-1. After the game the young club had the chance to meet their older counterparts and tour the dressing room….Nolan Gunter, a member of the Napanee Minor Peewee Stars who is battling leukemia, was on hand to drop the ceremonial face off. He received plenty of cheers from the Strathcona Paper Centre crowd gather on hand. Pearce’s two goal effort of Sunday makes him the Ontario Milk Marketing Board Raider of the Week.

Napanee Minor Hockey Report

Snow postpones 14 Star playoff games Beaver Sports

Weather played havoc with hockey schedules with families traveling to distant arenas. Fourteen games were not played as a result. n Like several other teams, the Boyd Electric Peewees faced weather cancellations over the weekend, but finished the series in Whitby on Sunday in a 7-2 crushing of the White squad. After scores of 3-1, 4-3, and 1-5, they played their most offensive game of the playoffs to advance in OMHA play taking the series, 3-1. n The Spuds Griddle Atom As waited until overtime in Trenton to take out Quinte West in a three game sweep by a 4-3 score. In round two of OMHA playoffs, they hoped to turn back Port Perry on Sunday night, but their opponents turned back on the road instead, because of weather conditions.

n The Exit Realty Minor Bantams hosted Port Perry, albeit a half hour late, also as a result of weather, in Game 4. The game was another tight defensive battle, with the locals scoring once, a fine two-on-one rush with Kiel Benton setting up Steven Shea who scored on the play. Kiel Fredenburg sent the pair away, from the back. The 2-1 loss sent them into the Lakeshore Playoffs dropping the series 3-1. n The L&A Mutual Insurance Minor Atom Stars played their long awaited Game 3 of the first round of the OMHA playoffs in Whitby on Sunday and were on the losing end of a 7-1 decision. Scoring the lone marker for the Stars was Reid Lambert with assists going to Zach Slaven and Braden Bannon. With the loss the Minor Atoms were eliminated from the OMHA playoffs 3 - 0, and will now prepare for their second

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK BUD NORRIS

Bud Norris came up big when his Napanee Raiders needed him, scoring twice in a 10-1 win over the Deseronto Storm. With just five games remaining in their playoff push, the Raiders will count on Norris to continue to power the offense. Napanee heads to Deseronto tomorrow for another big game.

As part of the development of the Napanee Generating Station, TransCanada has set up a Power Engineering Scholarship Program in collaboration with the Cambrian College! The TransCanada Power Engineering Scholarship Program will fund the costs of tuition, books and residence for 3 eligible high school graduate students from the Town of Greater Napanee and the surrounding First Nations Communities. The total value of the scholarship over two years is approximately $22,000.00 per student. In addition to the funding support, TransCanada will provide opportunities for students enrolled in the TransCanada Power Engineering Scholarship Program to get their required practical experience for the 4th and 3rd Class Operating Engineering Certificates of Qualification at one of TransCanada’s existing power generation facilities in Ontario. The deadline for applying for admission to Cambrian College’s Power Engineering Program is February 1, 2014. However, the deadline for applying to the TransCanada Power Engineering Scholarships through the Cambrian College Foundation has been extended to February 14, 2014.

season in the Lakeshore Playoffs starting with Kingston. n The Atom AE2 Stars took three tries to play the game, and finally were able to travel to Ajax on Sunday where they were eliminated from their OMHA series in game three. n The Bantam AE2 squad finally started their OMHA series with Oshawa on Sunday after two false starts. The Oshawa Junior Generals shut out the locals in Game 1. n The Giant Tiger Minor Peewees continued their Lakeshore playoffs with Pickering, and this time they were determined not to let the win slip away in the late going, as two days earlier. They took a dominant 5-1 lead, and prevailed 6-3 to lead their round robin series at this point. Ryan Snider was a Star in many ways between the posts.

assists, while Aiden Joe chipped in an assist. The home-and-home series with Port Perry was a victim of the inclement weather. n The Country Traditions Novice ‘A’ Stars completed a perfect regular season with two more weekend wins. With a 5-1 win against the Cobourg Cougars early Sunday afternoon and a 7-0 win over the Whitby Wildcats (White) late Sunday afternoon, the Napanee Novice ‘A’ Stars accomplished a truly remarkable and memorable feat by finishing the 2013/14 OMHA Lakeshore League regular season undefeated with a record of 26-0-0. “The team has worked extremely hard all season but most importantly they are having a lot of fun, both on and off the ice.” said Stars coach Kevin Brown. “The entire team has really become a close-knit group. We can’t wait for the playoffs.” During the regular season the Napanee Stars had an incredible 204 goals for and allowed a mere 38. In their first game on Sunday afternoon, the Stars faced Cobourg, hungry to finish the season strong. The game was tied 1-1 through two periods with Napanee owning the majority of scoring chances, but failing to thread the needle against the hard working Cobourg team. After the slow start, the Stars found their legs scoring four in the third for a decisive 5-1 victory. Scoring for Napanee were, Spencer Cranley (two), Carter McKee, Will Myers and Captain Cal Uens. Assists went to Ty Kemp (two), Taylor Gilmour, Cranley, McKee, Nolan Fox and Jack Madden. In their second game late Sunday afternoon, the Stars faced off against a strong skating Whitby (White) team. From the initial drop of the puck Napanee dictated the pace of play and controlled all phases of the game. The Stars scored two goals in the first period, three in the second period, and two goals in the third for the 70 win. Scoring for Napanee were Uens (four), McKee (two) and Cranley. Assists went to Kemp (two), Gilmour (two), Uens (two), Madden and McKee. Stars goalie Jacob Brown stood tall - earning his eighth shutout of the season.

NDCC opens its doors to first time curlers Members of the public can try out the sport at various times from Feb. 2 through 14 BY SANDY EASTLAKE On the Button

he Winter Olympics are just around the corner and the Napanee and District Curling Club are doing something special to celebrate. The week starting Sunday through to Feb. 14 the club is hosting a free open house with many various times and dates for members of the public to try the sport of curling. There is no equipment required, just clean running shoes and warm clothing. Call Sandy Eastlake 354-7138 for further info and to book a time. Anyone not available that week can take part in the annual Hospice Bonspiel held at the club each and on Feb. 8, so check the bulletin board and/or call Kim Ayling at Hospice now to ensure your teams’ inclusion. Hospice is always looking for individuals who are not already on a team. There is always the option of curling in the Hospice fundraiser and participating in the free open house too. Double pleasure, double fun. Congratulations to the team of Andy Palmer, Cathy Palmer, Robert Hough and Jane Hough on winning the Mixed Invitational Bonspiel at Cataraqui. Also, the teams

of Ed File, Walter Genereux and Hugh Sharpe entered the Brighton Senior Men’s Bonspiel with Hugh Sharpe, Frank Dunham, Robert Hough and Cor Vandenberg winning the event and having the honour of being first on the newly sponsored Bill Dunk trophy. It's almost into February so the kitchen and bar directors are again busy setting up volunteers for remaining events and club rentals. There are sign up sheets for the bar on the easel or call Blaine Williams 354-6438 or Doug Pennell 354-5365 and offer some time for one of these events; the sign up sheets for the kitchen are on the kitchen bulletin board or call Gail Maracle 354-5685 or Lana Jaeger 483-4140. Heather Ramshaw could use some committee assistance with our Highland Lassie Bonspiel slated for Saturday Feb. 22. There is never a shortage of spots requiring volunteers so check your calendar and call one of the directors soon. As all members should know, NDCC is a volunteer club and each member is asked to do a couple of duties during weekend events. If each member does at least two duties then other members are not doing three, four

and five different events. To those of you who have already volunteered a time or two the board of directors appreciate it. Bill Ryan and the bar directors heartily thank Ron Reynolds who rebuilt the shelving for our Little

Rocks, built a shelf for empties, added a new glass shelf and on top of that, engineered new steps to make restocking easier for all volunteers. Our Ladies Club Bonspiel is being held this coming Sunday, but there could

still be space available for late entries. Call Benita Murphy to see if she has room; spares are always needed due to health issues the day of the event. Tickets for our annual Sweetheart Dinner on Feb. 13 are now on sale so call

Lia 354-1174 or the club and have tickets put aside. I was remiss in my last article as I neglected to include Kees VanGent and Shelley Alkenbrack who are on the committee with Jim and Sandy Kennelly and Lia.

In loving memory of our dearest Mother and Nan, Carole, who was suddenly taken from us on January 30, 2013. A year has gone by and our hearts continue to ache With sadness and many tears still flow, What it meant to lose you No one will know, Your memories linger, Your stories we tell, To have our little ones remember you Is something we will do. It’s hard to see how time gos by, But we hold you close within our hearts And there you will remain And when we close our eyes, We will see your smile so clear, You’re loved and missed each passing day, But we know in our hearts That you are looking down, Waiting for us with open arms And to walk with us throughout our lives Until we meet again. We miss you every day Mom! Love always, Rick, Kristy, Reid, Aiden, Joel, Crystal, Jacob, Emma, Maci, Josh, Jada and Leslie.

Forever missed, loved by wife Aileen, nieces and nephews.

NDSS students get real world experience at co-op BY ADAM PRUDHOMME

Grade 12s spend semester exploring careers with local businesses

Staff Reporter

eciding upon which career path to follow can be a daunting task for a high school student who has no work experience in their field of interest. To help narrow down those choices Napanee District Secondary School offers a Co-operative education program, which allows students to spend one period assisting professionals in a variety of fields. From hair styling to detailing cars, each co-op placement is a unique experience that allows students to try out a career before pursuing it at a post-secondary level. “When they start co-op they have to do a pre-placement with me,” said Linda Bongard, NDSS’ co-op teacher. “I have to take them over certain assignments that they have to do prior to starting co-op. One of those things is to put a resume together. At the end of their co-op they have to do an exit resume.” Each student is responsible for researching their chosen career and creating a list of the skills they hope to learn while at placement. Their co-op ‘employer’ will then sign off on what they learned. At the

end of the semester they present their experiences at a co-op fair, the latest of which was held Jan. 17 in the school’s cafeteria.

“You get to experience it full on, not just talk about it.” Parker Powell, NDSS co-op student The presentation, which is open to all students who might be curious about the program, is the course’s final project. Each student constructed an eye catching display and submitted a written report about their experiences. There’s no formal exam as with most high school programs. There’s also no tests or teachers chasing students to get their work done. The responsibility to show up and do their work is placed solely on the student. This semester’s group included 60 students, a bit lower than usual. Typically the program has about 85 kids enrolled in a given semester. In more than one instance Bongard says the

program has helped guide students who at one point had no idea what they wanted to pursue as a career. Other times it has served as an eye-opener for ones they were considering. “It gives our students a chance to try a career that they’re thinking they might like,” said Bongard. “Sometimes it works out and re-affirms what they’ve been thinking. Sometimes they learn it was fun for a semester but they don’t want to do this (for a career).” For students used to the traditional classroom experience, their first taste of the working world can be unique to say the least. “You can learn it in class, but it’s more effective hands on, you’re actually doing it,” said Parker Powell, who did his co-op working with a wood shop teacher. While at his placement he had the chance to design creative trophies, which paired nicely with a fellow student who hosted a baking competition as part of an events planner placement. “I find there’s a lot more responsibilities, which is nice,” added Jeremy Kerr, who worked with a music class to help produce song demos. “You’re actually being depended on

NDSS students Sarah Abrams (left) and Carolyn Derue spent their co-op at the John M. Parrott Centre, devising games to keep the residents’ minds sharp. They were one of several students to present their experiences at the high school’s co-op fair earlier this month. to accomplish things.” During his placement he had the chance to assist a teacher help teach a class he had just graduated from the previous year. Along with getting to learns the ins and outs of the job, the students also get a unique opportunity to

pad their resumes which could give them an edge when applying to post-secondary schools or summer jobs. “You get to experience it full on, not just talk about it,” Powell said of taking a co-op placement. “You get to feel the ups and

downs on either side.” That’s a valuable lesson that can’t be taught in a classroom. Bongard will do it all again next week as classes resume for the next semester. They will hold another co-op fair at the end of the second semester in June.

TRANSCANADA | Copies of report available CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3 TransCanada is also prepared to pay upwards of $100,000 toward local agencies and governments for education, policing and fire and ambulance services. Blais said pre- and post-impact condition studies will be made on all roads directly affected by the construction process, which mainly includes

Hwy 33, Hwy 401 as well as County Road 41 and County Road 4. Any damages to roadways due to transporting materials or by other means during the construction process will be fixed and paid for by TransCanada. Fire and Ambulance has been allocated $10,000 for staff to develop an emergency response plan. An additional $10,000 has

been allocated for local OPP to provide a prevention plan for the plant. Another $10,000 has been allocated for education fees to provide additional crossing guards during the construction process. Copies of a detailed economic impact study are available to the public at the TransCanada Napanee project office located at 113 Richmond Blvd.

Deseronto throws support behind Bancroft in policing fight Council pushing for cost-per-household pricing BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

own of Deseronto council has moved to support the Town of Bancroft’s concerns regarding policing costs. On Jan. 8, Deseronto council received a letter from Bancroft mayor Bernice Jenkins, on behalf of council, asking all Ontario municipalities to voice their concerns to the provincial government regarding the proposed new policing billing model. The letter sent by the Town of Bancroft states, “The Town of Bancroft’s current policing costs are well beyond the provincial average, which has contributed to the increase of tax rates to unbearable levels, depleted reserves, and led to the deferral of necessary capital expenditures. The council of the Town of Bancroft believes that the new police billing model is based on a fairer approach to all municipalities.” Deseronto council stated Bancroft’s policing budget is currently about $1.5 million a year for the approximately 600 population municipality. The Town of Deseronto pays about $600,000 in policing costs. It is believed that if the proposed policing cost model moves forward, Deseronto would be charged approximately $369 per household for policing costs, as opposed to over $500 per household. “In this (new) model, every (municipality) is going to pay their share, that’s why I’m kind of in support of it,” said councillor Clarence Zieman. “Council recognizes that under the new billing

model, some municipalities may experience an increase in the cost for police services. The council of the Town of Bancroft respectfully requests that the provincial government not reduce the OMPF funding to municipalities and provide mitigation funding for municipalities that will experience increased policing costs as a result of the new police billing model,” the letter went on. However, Deseronto councillor Dan Johnston had some concerns over supporting the Town of Bancroft in this issue.

“In this (new) model every (municipality) is going to pay their share, that’s why I’m kind of in support of it.”

it?” Johnston asked council. Still, most councillors felt the new system, based on cost per household, would be a more fair way to distribute policing costs. “I think the OPP system is broken,” said councillor Edgar Tumak, before moving his motion to support Bancroft. His motion was: “Based on our support of the Tay Valley Township, and Fort Frances from our last meeting, I would say that we support Bancroft with a resolution in regards to the OPP building, retention of funding, and mitigation of municipalities that will have increased policing costs as a result of the new policing system.” This motion was moved by council.

Snow squalls force closure of Hwy 401 Messy conditions lead to multi-vehicle crash Beaver Staff

multi-vehicle pileup on the 401 yesterday, between Deseronto and Napanee, resulted in a fire, road closures and injuries to motorists. The 401 was closed in both directions between Napanee and Deseronto while the Napanee OPP investigated the multi-car and tractor trailer pileup Wednesday morning. Greater Napanee Fire Services and Ambulance was on scene to put out a fire. OPP East tweeted there were injuries in the accident and encouraged drivers to use an alternate route or avoid driving if possible. “Hwy 401 east and west bound at Napanee closed for multi vehicle crashes. Injuries have been reported. Use EDR (Emergency Detour Route),” the tweet read. A later tweet indicated the 401 was closed between County Road 1 and Marysville Road, in both directions, encouraging drivers to use these exits for EDRs. Loyalist Township Emergency Services’ Odessa station responded to assist the Napanee OPP and GNFS in the 401 acci-

dent. A press release provided by Napanee OPP stated a bus was sent to transport and shelter stranded motorists involved in the accident. “Please slow down and follow Emergency Detour Routes (EDR),” a press release from Jackie Perry, Napanee OPP media relations officer, stated. By press time, the Napanee Beaver was not able to determine how many vehicles were involved in the 401 accident, how many were injured or how extensive

those injuries were. Greater Napanee Fire Services Chief Terry Gervais also tweeted of another accident near Napanee, on County Road 8. “GNFS & OPP on the scene of a fuel truck in the ditch at Cty Rd 8 (and) Big Creek. No leaks but truck will have to have fuel removed to be moved,” the tweet read. Napanee Beaver staff was not able to find out more information on this accident before yesterday’s deadline. Police urge all drivers to exercise caution in snowy conditions.

Clarence Zieman, Councillor “The more and more I hear about this topic, I don’t know if we’re showing great governance by supporting this. … I don’t think this shows support for the greater good for Ontario. Although it’s a benefit to the Town of Deseronto, I don’t know if it’s a benefit to the system in general,” said Johnston. “They are (the provincial government) trying to keep the policing costs as high as possible and distributing it to a mass amount of people so they can still give eight and 10 per cent raises. In supporting it, even though we’re going to save some money, is that the way to go about

fundraiser for Lennox and Addington Interval House should have local ladies pampered and laughing next week, while helping out a great cause. On Feb. 6, the L&A Interval House will host a Ladies Night Out with Deb Kimmett fundraiser at the Strathcona Paper Centre. Wine, cheese and mingling will begin at 6:30 p.m. with the show beginning at 8 p.m. Newburghâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own musicians Sam and Emma McNichols will open for local comedian Deb Kimmett. The L&A Interval House provides support and services for women and children who have been victims of domestic violence. The agency provides emergency shelter, transitional housing and outreach supports to women and children in Lennox and Addington County, Tyendinaga Township and the Town of Deseronto. Sue Weir, executive director of the Lennox and Addington Interval House, said Kimmett should provide a fresh, funny show for everyone to enjoy, while also raising funds for Interval House. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fundraiser is a comedy night, a night for women to go out and enjoy an opportunity to work with each other and hear a great comedian. Deb Kimmett is certainly somebody who is increasingly wellknown in the comedic world and certainly wellknown in this community. Lots of her material is based off of our local folks since she hails from here and has lots of connections here so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a good show,â&#x20AC;? said Weir.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am rehearsing and writing this hilarious, touching and goose bump show as we speak, all geared for this special, special night,â&#x20AC;? Kimmett explained, last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a night that is going to rock it.â&#x20AC;? Weir said even for those who have seem Kimmett perform before, this will be a worthwhile event with new material, and Kimmett promises it will be just as hilarious as the first time anyone has seen her perform. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She actually is launching a new show so she will have new material. So people who have heard her before, they will not have heard this particular material, which is great,â&#x20AC;? said Weir. Material from her new show, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Crone on a Couch,â&#x20AC;? will be previewed in Napanee for this event, which includes new material from the CBCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Debaters and material especially written specifically for this Girlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Night Out fundraising event.
