Kemptville Mall 613.258.2700

by David Shanahan The announced closure of a tree seed plant in Angus, Ontario, threatens the future of the Ferguson Forest Centre [FFC], and the CEO of the FFC, Ed Patchell, has called on local MPP, Steve Clark, to work in the legislature to have the closure cancelled.

The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forest’s Angus Tree Seed Plant south-west of Barrie is scheduled for termination in September of next year, having been operated by the Province since 1923, as part of the reforestation program designed to repair serious damage caused to forest cover in Ontario by 19th century logging and forest destruction. The work which the seed plant has been doing for those decades, providing and processing

seeds from known and tested sources for facilities across the province, will be handed over to private commercial companies. The Ontario Government announced its plans in August of this year, without consulting interested parties in the industry.

Ed Patchell believes that the closure of the Angus plant could threaten the future operations of the FFC. “If the closure of the Angus Seed Plants goes forward as planned, it will be hard, if not impossible for the Ferguson Forest Centre to continue to provide appropriately seed sourced forest seedlings for eastern Ontario”, he wrote in his letetr to Steve Clark.

“The Angus Tree Seed Plant has been the primary supplier of locally sourced seeds for the Ferguson Forest Centre since it was initially opened

in 1946. The seed plant is the only forest tree seed processing facility in all of southern Ontario”.

The Ferguson Forest Centre, over the last 20 years, has produced and shipped over 50 million seedlings. Since 1946 over 350 million seedlings have been produced. The Centre employs the equivalent of 13 full time staff and spend over $1 million dollars in the local economy annually. This would obviously be a major economic blow to the community, but it would also threaten a vital natural asset for the people fo North Grenville. The FFC is the location of numerous public trails, Veteran’s Way and memorial Parl, the Dog Park, and a wonderful green space in the heart of our community.

Without the FFC, it is hard to imagine the green space

surviving untouched.

Steve Clark expressed frustration over the government’s failure to acknowledge the serious concerns being raised, and the alternatives proposed, by the Ontario Tree Seed Coalition to keep the Seed Plant operational.

“Industry experts weren’t consulted on this and are warning the minister her plan is ‘unreasonable’ and ‘irresponsible.’ It’s time for her to put the closure on hold and work with the industry, including the Ferguson Forest Centre, on alternatives” he said. “The cost of closing the seed plant won’t only be measured in lost jobs and economic activity, but the potential loss of important environmental initiatives that keep our forests healthy and sustainable.”

Over 2,000 pounds of food for House of Lazarus food bank

Pictured, House of Lazarus staff members Janet Carkner, Ralph Pulfer and Kim Merkley with a portion of the items from St. Mark. Submitted photo.

Adopt-A-Family in holiday season through the House of Lazarus

The House of Lazarus [HOL] is running two programs over the holiday season to ensure that no family living in rural poverty goes without. The Adopt-A-Family program has been around for a number of years and helps pair donors with a family, couple, or individual who needs help celebrating the festive season. The donor can choose to provide a holiday meal, gifts, or both, to whoever they are paired up with.

“There is no dollar value set for the adoption program, so it’s whatever your budget allows,” says HOL Client Services Coordinator, Kim Merkley.

There are still approximately 30 families and 20

The students and staff at St. Mark High School in Manotick pulled off a Christmas miracle recently by collecting over 2,000 pounds of food for the House of Lazarus [HOL] Food Bank in Mountain. The food items - two full trailer loads worth - were collected by HOL staff on November 13. Thanks go out to St. Mark for their incredible generosity! The HOL Food Bank serves over 100 local families each month.

Approximately 40% of food bank clients are children and 10% are seniors.

Santa defies the elements for the children

by Deron Johnston This year’s Kemptville Kinsmen Santa Claus Parade appeared to be in jeopardy because of a miserable forecast which called for freezing rain. The decision was made that the show would go on, so everyone involved crossed their fingers that somehow the nasty weather would pass us by. Though it looked bleak right up until the final minutes before the parade, the rain stopped and the parade came out to shine. The Town Crier was out early walking the parade route, warding off the rain and passing out chocolates.

This year’s parade theme was inspired by Christmas movies. Onlookers were

treated to some very creative floats, including an entry by Juice FM that recreated the movie Christmas Vacation with the Griswald Family, complete with their iconic RV. Some other floats included The Nightmare Before Christmas, A Charlie Brown Christmas, and The Polar Express, which all appeared to have taken a lot of time and effort to construct.

Choosing a winner would have been very difficult with so many thoughtful entries.

For the animal lovers in the crowd, there were a number of horses, ponies, and miniature horses, whose presence made some of the young ones squeal with delight. There were also a large

The Voice of North Grenville

There was lots of entertainment provided during the parade, as Precision Cheer and Dance performed a number of routines along the parade route. There was even a marching band that played some great Christmas tunes to get people in the mood for the guest of honour.

Speaking of the guest of honour, Santa Claus eventually arrived on the scene once all of the other floats had gone by. Santa’s reindeer accompanied him and appeared poised to take off at any second, but Santa wanted to make sure that he was able to see as many children (of all ages) as possible. He even stopped at the North Grenville Public Library after the parade to see all of the children again, in case he missed any.

Judging by the size of the bags of candy that children were dragging away from the parade area, it looked like they were just finishing up a second Hallowe’en. However, there was no denying that the smiles and laughter of the children weren't fuelled by a rush of sugar, but by the sweet knowledge that Christmas was coming and that Santa would be returning very soon.

number of dogs of all shapes and sizes, from Great Danes down to Chihuhuas, that were riding on the floats and riding in vehicles, but most were walking along beside their humans. There were even some reindeer sightings, but more on that later.

A wide selection of vehicles was on display in the parade as well, with everything from golf carts, bicycles, ATVs and tractor trailers, to mail trucks, vintage fire engines, pickup trucks and kids electric cars. It was interesting to watch several politicians, standing up in the backs of pickup trucks, try to maintain their balance with all of the stopping and starting of the parade.

couples/individuals in need of adoption this year. Without this program, many would go without a proper holiday meal and the kids would have nothing under the tree on Christmas morning. “Being adopted during the holidays means a lot to our clients,” Kim says. “[They] are always overwhelmed by how generous people are.”

To adopt a family email Kim at kmerkley@houseoflazarus.com and let her know whether you’d like to adopt a family, individual, or couple.

“I will send you back a wish list from them, including genders and sizes,” she says.

“The gifts don’t have to be wrapped, and the meal can be a gift card, so you don’t

have to go out and buy all the food yourself.” The deadline for returning baskets for the Adopt-A -Family program is December 18, so their clients have time to pick up their baskets before the holidays.

If you would rather give a gift to a single child, HOL is also running their Angel Tree program. “We have about 40 children left for the program,” Kim says. The deadline to donate gifts for the Angel Tree program is the first week of December.

Each month over 100 local families access the HOL Food Bank. “Every year, the need for our services continues to grow, and programs like Adopt-A-Family make a huge difference in our client’s lives,” Kim says.

“Whether your needs are simple or complex, I will address your investment and retirement related needs.”

The North Grenville Times

The Voice of North Grenville

Happy Birthday to the North Grenville Times

by Hilary Thomson Last week, The North Grenville Times celebrated its fifth year as a weekly newspaper in North Grenville. At a party surrounded by friends, advertisers, and local dignitaries, they thanked the community for their support over the past five years. “From the beginning, we wanted to be the voice of North Grenville,” David says. “This is your newspaper.”

It is clear that Marguerite Boyer and David Shanahan are humbled by the support they have received from the community, without whom there would arguably be no North Grenville Times. They are quick to pass the credit on to those who work behind the scenes of the paper (sales, accounting, writers and editorial staff) for making it a success.

“Each person who works for the paper brings something different,” David says.

“That’s what makes it work.”

I believe, however, a huge thank you needs to go out to the two of them. From the moment they stepped foot in North Grenville, they have been a part of the community.

Even before the paper started, Maggie was involved with her art and David was playing his music in coffee houses in North Grenville and the surrounding area. Maggie was on the committee of the original Dandelion Festival and has always been quick to help a neighbour in need.

When the Kemptville Advance was sold to a corporation, and they were noticing less and less coverage of local events and issues, Maggie and David rose to the challenge.

With the backing of their friends and family, they began a newsletter, which ran for eight years before becoming the weekly paper it is today.

“We got to the point where the monthly wasn’t doing what we wanted it to do,” David said. “It was either stop or expand.”

The 2018 Budget and Taxes

by Stephen Hammond News Headline: “Federal, Provincial, and Municipal governments continue to reduce tax burden. All public debts to be paid off in two years. Canadian Dollar now worth $11US. The Economy is not growing, but it doesn’t matter because there’s no inflation. Poverty non-existent as median family income exceeds $200,000 for the first time in history (year 2000 constant dollars).

Experts studying the matter have determined that, given the accelerated debt payoff of all government debts, the total average federal and provincial tax rates will fall to an annualized average of 15% of personal disposable income. All municipal property taxes would also be eliminated, due to larger than expected Federal and Provincial transfers to municipalities, and the dramatic increase in the efficiency of municipal government.”

The above is from the year 2018. Ok, Ok, don’t get too excited. It’s the year 2018, but sorry, the above news story is from another parallel universe (in my

dreams). Or maybe it’s not 2018, but 2038 and robots do all the work and everything is owned by Amazon.

Back to reality.

So, I’m a disgruntled but hopeful taxpayer. To try to alleviate some of my disgruntlement, I went to the North Grenville Municipal 2018 budget meetings. All three meetings. And I mean the whole meeting, except I was a little late for the last two (made up for by the fact I was extra early for the first meeting). The following are some of the highlights: 1) Roll call(including myself); - 7 members of the public were at the first meeting.

- 1 member of the public was at the second meeting (it was a little bit lonely).

- 3 members of the public were at the third meeting.

- there was no hide nor hair of the press present at any of the meetings.

Note: North Grenville has about 17,000 residents. I thought maybe I was attending a meeting in the Township of Cockburn Island which has two permanent residents.

Conclusion: There’s ob-

Through their hard work and dedication to the community, the paper has grown into an engaging newspaper with its own unique style that reaches over 9,500 people in two municipalities. It is not just a paper that reports bland news, but one that isn’t afraid to shake things up with controversial editorials and different viewpoints. “By taking the approach that we do, it encourages a response,” David says. “It engages people to think,” Maggie adds.

David says the most rewarding part about the past five years has been watching the way the community has embraced it. “I love it when people say they read it cover to cover”.

Covering issues that affect the community is also very important to Maggie and David, which is clear from their fulsome coverage of Featherstone Park in 2015, when residents were served an eviction notice because of a failing septic system. “It’s

the causes we take on,” David says. “Featherstone Park was almost worth it in itself.”

It is impossible for me to write an article about The Times without adding something on a more personal note. For me, the paper is much more than a job. When I moved here after journalism school, I had no job, and knew no one except my husband’s family in Kemptville. On a whim, I contacted David, who was happy to meet with me and offered me a job on the spot. From the very beginning, he encouraged me to find my voice as a writer and explore issues and stories that I was interested in. Now, just under three years later, I feel connected to the community and know more about North Grenville and MerrickvilleWolford than my husband does, who has live here for 32 years.

The North Grenville Times has become a staple in the community, and there is no doubt that North Grenville

viously nothing wrong with how the municipality is being run, council doesn’t need any help or consultation with the public, and everybody’s happy with their property tax rates.

2) At the first meeting, a few members of the public were interested in trying to get municipal taxpayers to fund a splashpad, bathroom, and small pavilion at Riverside park. Total cost about $375,000. ($100,000 from the municipality, and the rest from private funding/ grants). There was general agreement that this might be a worthwhile project. However, for budgetary reasons, it was not approved. Also, there is already a splashpad at Equinelle. It was also not clear how much it would cost to maintain the facilities. It was mentioned that there were approximately 7,600 taxpayers in the Municipality, and this would add about 1% to the municipal portion of property taxes (not including ongoing maintenance and staffing).

Another member of the public requested increases in funding of $20,000 per year to improve the downtown through the C.I.P. It was not approved for budgetary

reasons, but it was noted that the program had already been substantially expanded to the current funding level in prior years.

I could go on, but those were the big ticket requests from the public.

There were also a couple of other members of the public who had done some serious work scrutinizing the 195 page budget. Staff were complimented on the help provided in obtaining and analysing the budget.

Conclusion: The council recognizes the need to control costs.

Next week: Meetings 2 and 3.

would be a different place without it. With Maggie’s keen eye for design and David’s knack for writing (and stirring up trouble), they have created a paper which many people have told me they look forward to every week. I know that many people’s lives have been touched by the Times, and I am not the only one who feels connected to the community because of it.

The College – A Done Deal?

by Deron Johnston It has come to our attention that the private sector has also expressed interest in the outright acquisition of the Kemptville College. In information exclusive to the North Grenville Times, we have learned that a local firm, representing investors who manage a “humanitarian” fund have made representations to Premier Kathleen Wynne and Minister Jeff Leal to purchase the entire site. They even included lands located in Winchester, even though these are not part of the college purchase.

In their latest letter to Minister Leal, the principals of the firm congratulated him on the negotiation of an agreement in principle with the Municipality of North Grenville on the acquisition of the former College of Agricultural Technology (KCAT). They also let him know that, if the conditions of the agreement were not met, for whatever reason, they would still be interested in moving forward with a purchase of the site.

The letter also states that: “while we remain open to other options that may be available, we believe that an outright purchase of the entire site by the private sector would benefit all parties, i.e. the Province, our consortium of companies and particularly, the Municipality. With the financial capital to develop, maintain, and operate the site, we feel that our prevailing interest in the fusion of agricultural practices with those of environmental humanitarian stewardship would bring new business, employment and credibility to the North Grenville community and to the government of Premier Wynne”. This company has stated its desire to install an agri-environmental research facility on the site of the old college, aimed at testing new technologies in farming with an emphasis on sustainable agricultural practices.

We have learned that the monies available for the purchase of the site come from an international humanitarian fund dedicated to the development of such projects as that of the Kemptville College all over the world. As such, one of the uses of the college proposed for the college would be to provide training and development to foreign students in sustainable agricultural practices.

The firm interested in purchasing the college states that the funds needed are still available. They further state that they would appreciate knowing as soon as possible if they should sustain their current interest or look elsewhere. Their “initial desire” is to assume management of the site by April 1, 2018, in order to get their projects underway.

Municipality Matters

Do You own your property ?

by Jim Bertram Last week’s Times included a very thoughtful set of reflections on the notion of ‘Heritage’. The article provided a variety of ideas for residents to consider in terms of that concept. Before going further with this article, I would draw attention to the use of the term ‘heritage’ as it appears in the article.

The article refers to the general idea of heritage as commonly used in discussion. Its application in reference, for example, to ‘the College’ is revealed in a reference to “control over what happens to the land and the buildings”. In other words, it refers to the control of and ultimate treatment of property.

Now, as we all know, there are different types of property used for different things: homes, farms, facto-

ries, churches, schools, and so on. There are public owners, as well as private. There are responsibilities attached to ownership which owners must recognise and pay for (insurance, taxes, etc). And there are rights attached to ownership. Or are there?

More on that in a moment.

But first, let’s look again at heritage. Is it just buildings which we may believe must be maintained out of historical interest? Does our heritage only boil down to that? Or is our heritage not, more generally, a set of cultural appreciations which refer to our philosophical and behavioural inheritance, as well as bricks and mortar? Our social practices? Our values?

Given that numerous books have been written on the subject which I am bringing forward in a mere newspaper article, only the briefest of comments may be made. I would suggest for the reader’s assessment the idea that a large part of our heritage is the right to own property.

I would further suggest that the right to own property in Canada, though not as strongly protected as in the

OPP WARN PUBLIC OF RENTAL SCAM

Grenville County Ontario Provincial Police have received complaints about a rental scam involving a Kemptville home being advertised for rent on www.freerentads.com.

Scammers create fraudulent classified ads, often online, for rentals available in a preferred location. Ads are usually posted with a below average asking price to ensure a "quick sale." Scammers give interested consumers a rental questionnaire, which asks for personal information including: banking details, contact information, occupation, income and more.

Scammers portray themselves as landlords currently working overseas. They say that the rent is at a discounted rate to get good tenants who will "take care" of the property while they are away on business. Scammers also explain how showings/ tours of the property are unavailable but a full refund can be given if the rental does not meet the consumer's satisfaction.

Once an offer is "accepted", consumers must send first and last months' rent (either by a money service business, email money transfer or bank wire) in exchange for the keys. The keys are promised to be express mailed to the tenant's current address. No keys are ever sent, nor is a rental available by the scammer. Victims are given many reasons to send extra funds (security deposit, pay for more months at a discounted rate). Victims are eventually made aware of the fraud and ads are quickly deleted and communication with the suspect is terminated.

Warning Signs - How to Protect Yourself

When searching for rentals, go to the address. Schedule a showing and confirm its availability. Request a lease/contract. Review it thoroughly. Complete open source searches on rental addresses to ensure it's not a duplicate post. Do not send funds to strangers.

Contact Equifax and Transunion if you've provided sensitive information on applications. Go with your gut. If it seems fishy it probably is.

If you have been a victim of a scam, please contact the Canadian Anti-Fraud Center at 1-888-495-8501 or Grenville County O.P.P. Communication Centre at 1-888-310-1122.

Please do your part in recognizing fraud, reporting it and stopping it.

The North Grenville Times

United States, is one which most Canadians believe to be fundamental. A basic right.

One which is part of their – dare I say it – heritage. It is a right which Canadians pay for every day in taxes, insurance costs, mortgages, property maintenance costs. Given the proximity of Remembrance Day, let’s remember that this right, and others, have been bought dearly in the past.

This right is not an ethereal concept. It is at the root of Canadians’ beliefs about what they may do in the development of their daily lives. As well, it contributes mightily to the economic well-being of our country.

Just watch economists’ faces go grey when the number of housing starts drops significantly. In short, property ownership is not only an individual good. It is a part of our Canadian heritage, which contributes to the common good in general economic terms and in terms of psychological benefit to owners. Just have a look at the faces of the first time home buyer and the attention they pay to the care of their new property-cumasset in the service of them-

selves AND the general good.

Given the foregoing, it is of the utmost importance, out of respect for our neighbours and their property, that we consider carefully any measure which affects said property. The owner’s right to his property must be considered to be supreme and may not lightly be tampered with by agents of government. The general notion of the common good is not well served when this is not the case. For the common good is sullied in the extreme when attempts are made to arrive at it through a process of ignoring the basic rights of even one of our neighbours.

Canada’s heritage is not one of the tyranny of the majority.

We, as Canadians, may justly take pride in our defense of individuals whose particularities, needs and rights should be respected by fellow citizens. We may not set such considerations aside lightly .

Consideration for our fellow citizens suggests this. Our ultimate self consideration for our own rights requires it.

Let us recognise our heritage in all its breadth, not merely in one small part.

It's that time of year again

by Brian Lonergan It's that time of year again. Yesterday, I spent time in the yard preparing the grounds for winter. It was a nice day that reached 10 Celsius. As luck would have it, I was witness to the peak day of what I call “the passage”. It started small in late morning and increased as the day progressed. Over the afternoon, I witnessed tens of thousands of geese flying in formations overhead of my home that seems to be situated on their flight path.

Their honking and flights continued all day, as if calling out to others to join them in their trek south.

Then, around 3p.m., there came the formation to end all formations. Their presence filled the sky for about 8-10 minutes, as geese flew over in successive droves of arrows in flight. Imagine about a hundred geese in a row, all in a straight line, on one side and a hundred on the other, joining at the centre apex to form a "V". There were successive similar "V" formation arrow shapes of groups following the initial lead in a continuing endless stream.

The sky was black with geese as far as one could see across the horizon, as they passed noisily overhead. The sound of their honking was deafen-

ing, but wonderful to hear.

There was no doubt that this passage seemed to minimize our own presence, as one realized that other creatures also share our planet.

Several neighbours, attracted by the honking, came out of their homes to watch the spectacle, until the geese had finally passed and the silence returned. It was almost like, for a short while, our time stopped, as these creatures became the centre of attention in this world we share.

It reminded me of the aboriginals being attracted to the thunderous sound of the buffalo passing two and a half centuries ago, before that species was destroyed by greedy squatters. Fortunately, the geese remain to summon our awe. The whole spectacle of the geese passage was heartening, but also sad to some degree, as one realized that our lives will be a little less fuller with these beautiful creatures temporarily gone from our midst during the winter months.

Pedestrian Crossovers

As part of the development of the County Road 44 multiuse pathway, two pedestrian crossovers have been installed.

The crossovers are located in front of the Municipal Centre (285 County Road 44) and the Fire Station (259 County Road 44).

This type of crossover is new the Municipality and, in an effort to educate both pedestrians and drivers on their safe and proper use, the Municipality has created infographics that can be viewed on the Municipal website at www.northgrenville. ca, or on the Municipality’s social media channels (Twitter & Facebook). Copies can also be picked from the Municipal office. The information also outlines the fines and penalties for misuse of the crossovers.

River watershed of about a hundred Lakes before emptying around Kingston and the Islands into Lake Ontario.

What a beautiful area this truly is. This watershed has been unchanged since 1783 and is protected by the Federal government. We are so lucky to be living in such a beautiful natural terrain, with the knowledge that it will continue to remain so, undisturbed. www.rideau-info.com/ canal/history/rideau-route/ watersheds.html.

Now we must wait for winter to pass before the geese return again with the coming of spring. Meanwhile, living temporarily in small ponds and inlets along the

South Branch, are hundreds of geese feeding and nesting in large groups, as they are not ready to leave just yet. One can also see many geese feeding in the harvested fields, returning to the water when dark approaches. They huddle together during the night for protection from coyotes and other predators.

These hangers-on will remain with us until the ponds freeze over for good and they can no longer feed. Then, one morning, they too will be suddenly gone and we will not hear or see the geese again until spring. I can't wait to wave my arms and cheer out loud at them when they return. I will be waiting !

Seafood Gala Buffet at Castle View

Grenville Mutual aspires to help BBBS

For 125 years Grenville Mutual has enhanced people’s lives by contributing to causes where we live and do business.

This is a meaningful opportunity to give back and to do something special. Grenville is proud to support what we believe in: being a strong community minded company and having respect and empathy for others. We encourage pitching in when it’s needed, not caring who gets the credit and promoting the spirit of

neighbour helping neighbour.

This was demonstrated when Big Brothers Big Sisters received a gift of $525 from Grenville Mutual Insurance. In celebration of the company’s 125th anniversary, each staff member was provided the opportunity to donate $1,025.00 to a single charity or divide between two charities of their choice within the Eastern Ontario Region.

“I couldn’t be more pleased or proud to be able to

choose to support Big Brothers Big Sisters, a group who does amazing work for kids in our communities in Leeds and Grenville.”, said Jennifer Moulton, a staff member with Grenville Mutual. “To see the excitement and appreciation from Leanne and Jane at Big Brothers and Big Sisters, it really struck home how this will help kids right where we live and I am grateful to have been given this opportunity.

Sharing his view, Ross Lincoln, President/CEO says that a large part of the community work that the company undertakes is planned and coordinated at the grassroots level. “What better way to appreciate our people, and provide a rare and exciting opportunity for them to give back to a cause that means the most to them.”

L-R: Robert Noseworthy, KDH Foundation Board Chair; Liz van Gerwen, Chef Pietro and Hemke van Gerwen, co-owners of Castle View Fine Dining.

The first annual Seafood Gala Buffet, hosted by Chef Pietro and his partners Liz and Hemke van Gerwen at Castle View Catering and Fine Dining, formerly the New Rideau Restaurant, was held on October 21, 2017. The evening was held in memory of Chef Pietro’s daughter, Jose Anselmo, and Chef Dan Halliday. The event brought overwhelming success, raising an amazing $12,275 for the Kemptville District Hospital Foundation.

One hundred guests not only enjoyed a superb seafood buffet, lobster, prime rib and dessert, but a social evening with friends and community members, all in support of a great cause.

Plans are already underway for another event in the spring 2018. The KDH Foundation is very grateful for the relationship they have established with Castle View’s owners and look forward to collaborating for many years to come.

Established in 1979, the Kemptville District Hospital Foundation raises funds in support of the Kemptville District Hospital. In 2017, the Foundation provided over $300,000 in funding to the Hospital to purchase vital medical, surgical and diagnostic equipment not covered by any other source of funding.

Big Brothers Big Sisters campaigns

by Leanne Trimble Cadieux, Director of Strategic Initiatives Big Brothers Big Sisters of Leeds and Grenville realize that there will be a need for warm toes in our schools over the winter months. In September, Leanne Trimble, Director of Strategic Initiatives with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Leeds and Grenville sent out a request for locations to collect socks for this campaign over the month of October. I am sure most of us will agree there is nothing worse than having cold, wet feet. Our goal was to collect 500 pairs of socks to be distributed to our community schools before the cold winter months. Well.... Did our community ever step up.

With amazing support from St. James Anglican Church, North Grenville Community Church, South Gate Church, Body and Sole Foot Care Clinic, and Oxford Mills Sisterhood of Guiding we were able to collect 1,231 pairs of socks. HOW AMAZING IS THAT!!!!!! We cannot thank the community enough and on

Council not open to mediation

by Hilary Thomson Council decided last Monday evening not to go the route of hiring a mediator to help facilitate the conversation between the Municipality and the Merrickville and District Chamber of Commerce.

The decision was made after a lengthy discussion, during which a few members of council made it clear that they were not happy with how the situation was handled by Mayor David Nash.

Councillor Chuck MacInnis was very vocal in expressing his distaste with the fact that the Mayor held a “press conference” with the media and Chamber representative Karl Feige without notifying council when it would be held and what would be discussed. “I find this activity very insulting to council as a whole and insulting to me as a councillor,” he told Mayor Nash at the meeting.

Deputy Mayor Ann Barr was also on side with Councillor MacInnis, saying that the resolution the Mayor prepared to recommend hiring a mediator for the Chamber

discussions was written in a way that seemed to shame council. “I am appalled at the wording of the resolution,” she said. Both asked for an apology from the Mayor, which he gave after both parties further explained their position.

Councillor Victor Suthren explained in the most detail why he believed a private meeting with a mediator was not the way to go. “I’m in favour of a conversation with concerned citizens,” he said.

“We have mechanisms in place to allow the free flow of information.”

The mechanism he is referring to is the ability of any member of the public to present as a delegation to council at the beginning of a council meeting. Councillor Suthren said that granting a private meeting for one group of citizens would set a precedent when it came to other groups that may want the attention of council. “I urge that we reframe whatever we are doing, to use current mechanisms,” he said.

Deputy Mayor Barr was in agreement with Councillor

Merrickville Choirs prepare for final concert of the year

Suthren, and said she would like to invite the Chamber to make a delegation to council and proceed from there. She also expressed concern with granting a more open form of discussion, as she felt it would be much more difficult to manage. “The proposed agenda they gave us in their request for a meeting was very loose,” she said.

In the end, Mayor Nash’s original resolution to organize a meeting with a mediator was defeated and a new resolution was passed to request the Chamber of Commerce make a presentation to council about their vision for a future relationship with the municipality. Council agreed that, if the ten minute allotment for delegations was deemed to be insufficient, council would grant an extension to the time limit. “There are good intentions on all sides,” Councillor Suthren noted at the end of the discussion. “Council does, however, have certain responsibilities and liabilities as a governing body. We help the Chamber of Commerce and ourselves to stay within legislation.”

by Hilary Thomson The Merrickville Children and Adult Choirs are gearing up for their end of year concert set for the beginning of December. The choirs have been practicing every Sunday evening since September to present a concert dedicated to the love of music.

Choir director, Susan Lines, started the Merrickville Children’s Choir with her friend, Sharon Stull, back in 2011 with the goal of creating an activity in Merrickville that was affordable and which brought music into children’s lives. Parents soon expressed interest in getting involved as well, and the adult choir was formed.

Susan is a firm believer that anyone can sing. There are no try outs for the choir, and everyone has the opportunity to try singing on their own. “There are quite a few solos,” she says. “It’s not just about celebrating advanced

Korean Embassy visits Merrickville-Wolford

by Hilary Thomson Contrary to what we reported in last week’s paper (oops), last Thursday marked Korea Day in Merrickville Wolford. Representatives from the Embassy of the Republic of Korea spent the whole day in Merrickville, visiting schools, liaising with local dignitaries and business November 22, 2017

people, and sharing their culture with the community.

Korean Flags where placed outside many of the businesses, and a lot of effort was put into making the Korean guests feel welcome.

“It’s a beautiful town,” said Korean Consul General Kim Janghoi. “Everybody is so kind.”

It is safe to say that the travel bug has been planted in Merrickville-Wolford, particularly for the young students of Merrickville Public School and Ecole Saint MargueriteBourgeoys. The presentation that was made by Korean representatives (in traditional Korean dress) captivated the students and many were eager to express their interest in travelling there one day.

The Korean Ambassador to Canada, Shin Maeng-ho made an appearance in the municipality at a lunch organized by the Merrickville and District Chamber of Commerce. Afterwards, he went over to the Cenotaph to lay a wreath for soldiers who died during the Korean War. “As a Korean, I really appreciate the Canadian soldiers,” says Kim Janghoi.

“More than 300 Canadian citizens are buried in a United Nations cemetery in South Korea.”

President of the Chamber of Commerce, Karl Feige, says it was amazing how many Korean connections popped out of the woodwork as they were organizing the visit. “It’s amazing how many people say going to Korea was a life changing experience,” he said.

singers.”

Being part of the choir is not just about the singing.

“It’s also something for the community to celebrate,” Susan says. “We live in a small community, but that shouldn’t stop us from having something like this.”

There is no cost associated with being a part of the choir, and admission to their concerts is by donation only, with money raised going right back into the community to support various groups and charities. In the past, they have raised money for the House of Lazarus, the Merrickville Public School Play structure, the HUB swimming pool, and Merrickville Bridge to Canada. The upcoming concert will be raising money for the Merrickville Food Bank.

The concert will be a compilation of different vocal arrangements, with the children and adults singing both

separately and together. There will also be some solo and smaller group performances and a few numbers from the more seasoned vocal group, called Rideau Voices, that Susan is a part of. They will be accompanied by experienced accompanist and singer Kathleen Howard, who has volunteered her time to play with the choir. “We couldn’t do it without her,” Susan says.

Susan’s favourite part of running the choir is seeing the individual progress and confidence choir members build throughout the season.

“Singing is very good for emotional wellbeing,” she says. “The kids are learning skills that they can take into their life. It’s a great thing to keep us all alert, engaged, and part of the community.”

The concert will start at 7:00pm on Sunday, December 3, 2017 at the Merrickville United Church. Tickets are by donation.

Remembrance Day, 11 November, 2017

by John Baldwin Gathered at the Kemptville Cenotaph, on a beautiful, sunny and windless November 11th day, The representatives of all the various religions encouraged us, to remember our Lord and to pray, The marchers had stopped their marching and the musicians had put their instruments to rest, When a flock of pigeons rose up into the sky, as if on their own peaceful quest.

Their wings flapped in unison, and, above the scene below, hardly made a sound, As the trumpeter blew “The Last Post” loudly and it echoed all around!

Heads were bowed in silence, as we remembered those who, in all the wars, had died, And for many it was a short time to think about what had taken place, - their own thoughts deep inside.

These were soon dispersed, as “The Reveille”, roused them and they awoke, But not, as many of those; who they were remembering did; to guns, noise and smoke!

For us the sun was still shining, for the laying of the wreathes and right until the last, When the bands reformed and the parade, made its final salute and “March-Past”, It was only when the crowd had almost departed and dispersed, That the flock of pigeons re-appeared, as if they had rehearsed!

And, as one, came in to land, with wings outstretched, down on to the ground, To their own little part of Kemptville, where, now, thanks to the sacrifice of others, peace does abound.

We will remember them!

The North Grenville Times

The Voice of North Grenville

Nostalgia and Sentimentality: Recipe for a Holiday Hit Time to take a cue from your favourite crooners and start prepping those “parties for hosting and marshmallows for toasting” because well, you know what time of year it is.

“White Christmas” is just one of the holiday classics you’ll enjoy in the North Grenville Concert Choir’s upcoming presentation of “A Crooner Christmas”!

Bing Crosby’s recording of “White Christmas” was first broadcast on Christmas Day, 1941. The longing and coziness of Irving Berlin’s lyrics resonated especially strongly that day, as families

were thinking about the devastating Pearl Harbor attack just two weeks before.

This best-selling Christmas song of all time stands apart from other songs in a number of ways. It’s not upbeat, there are no fanciful characters, and it isn’t religious. Instead, it’s melancholy and wistful – full of longing for bygone days.

For composer Berlin, “White Christmas” was an unexpected hit. It was a simple song – just 54 words and 67 notes – and it won him an Academy Award.

You can hum along to “White Christmas”, and many

other holiday mainstays, in this nostalgic, yuletide performance.

“A Crooner Christmas”: Sunday, November 26, at 2:00pm at St. Clare’s Anglican in Winchester; Friday, December 1, at 7:30pm at Southgate Church in Kemptville; and Saturday, December 2, at 7:30pm at Holy Trinity Church in Merrickville. Tickets $15 available at Brewed Awakenings in Kemptville, Mirick’s Landing in Merrickville, and online at www. ngcc.eventbrite.ca. For info call 613-322-6484 or visit www.ngcc.net.
