It appears likely that New Brunswick will see a carbon tax in the not too distant future. While, a cap and trade system is still possible, the current government is hinting carbon tax. They are also hinting that the carbon tax would not be rebated back to the people who paid the tax, but rather be put into economic development activities. If this is in fact, what actually comes about, my comment would be BONEHEADS. I know that I have said it before, but let me say it once again. Governments are political animals and know nothing about economic development. I am not against a carbon tax whatsoever, but I am definitely against the government spending that tax money. Distributed back to the families of the province, they will individually make the best decision how that money will be spent. And yes, for some, the money will not be well spent, but collectively, the families of the province will make much smarter decisions than any government. The capitalist system works so well, because each person votes with every dollar they spend which business and which products survive. Some buy soft drinks and some buy chainsaws, but ultimately, the best solutions for reducing carbon emissions will be decided by the voters (families) of the province. Now, here is what happens. The government subsidizes a solar panel plant. Great idea... right!!! But, I buy a windmill to generate my electrical savings, and you buy a
smaller more fuel efficient auto, and Joe installs a small stream electric unit on his property, while Jack opts to buy booze, turn down the thermostat and wear a sweater. No solar panels are sold (an obvious exaggeration) and our subsidized panel plant is done for and so is our money!! If New Brunswick had the distinct ability to be the best solar panel maker in the world, chances are many of the really smart businesses out there would have already figured it out and have manufacturing plants established here. Subsidies are a bonus for smart businesses because you are paying them to do what they already know is a good solid business idea, but are willing to take your money if offered. Subsidies are also an incentive for not so smart people to try ideas that smart people are unwilling to fund, because the idea is just not that great. Let the families of New Brunswick have their say in how carbon tax revenues are spent. Then we will be subsidizing smart decisions!!!! 0002

WELL RESTED QUIET YOUR MIND FOR A PEACEFUL SLEEP Relaxation techniques - If you are like most people, you occasionally (or perhaps frequently) have nights where your mind just won’t shut down. Your thoughts cycle through what you did that day, what you have to do tomorrow, what you said at a party two years ago, a fight you had with your sister, your finances, your grocery list and on and on. One of the most common sleep complaints is sleep onset insomnia; this problem is often caused by intrusive thoughts that prevent your mind and body from relaxing enough to let you fall asleep. Progressive Muscle Relaxation Concentration on your breathing and the feeling of your body helps to distract your mind from intrusive thoughts. Start by taking a couple of deep breaths in and out. First, tense the muscles in your toes and feet, hold for 3-4 then relax. Next tense the muscles in your lower legs, hold for 3-4 seconds then relax. Move up

to your upper legs, then your abdomen, your arms, your chest, your shoulders your neck, then your jaw and face. End by take two more deep breaths in and out. 4-7-8 Relaxation breathing - I have personally found this the most useful technique for falling asleep. Described by Dr. Andrew Weil, this simple breathing exercise can calm your body and mind to the point where you fall asleep before you know it. Start by closing your eyes and take a deep breath in through your norse or mouth for a count of four seconds. Hold your breath for a count of seven seconds. Breathe out through your nose or mouth for a count of eight seconds. Repeat five times. The action of holding a deep breath acts to lower your blood pressure and heart rate, tricking your body into thinking that you are relaxed. The act of counting, gives your mind something to distract it from those thoughts that have been keeping you from sleeping. You will be asleep before you know it. Guided meditation - Lastly, a voice

interaction without judgment. Families who come to the Café each month enjoy refreshments, entertainment, education and friendship. The Memory Café reduces social isolation and provides information and education for families.

On Friday, September 30 the IWK Foundation was presented with a donation of $101,640 by Salisbury Big Stop/Silver Fox Restaurant. These funds were raised by community volunteers through the sale of raffle tickets on a 2016 Ford Mustang. The sales for the draw started in May, and tickets were sold for $5 each, 3 for $10, or 7 for $20. A group of approximately 15 dedicated volunteers staffed the sales table and sold tickets outside the Big Stop seven days a week. The winners of the draw were: 1st place prize of 2016 Ford Mustang – Angel Comeau of Burton NB; 2nd place prize of two tickets anywhere WestJet flies – Barb Pearson of Riverview NB; and the third place prize of an Apple iPad – Frank Baker of Halifax NS. This fundraiser for the IWK Foundation is the most recent of several fundraisers conducted by Salisbury Big Stop/ Silver Fox Restaurant. Most notably, over 10 years, the Salisbury Big Stop/ Silver Fox Restaurant raised over $1.2 million for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. The Silver Fox Restaurant currently has a “charity table,” and 10 per cent of the total revenue from the table is donated to a different local charity every month. 4265

Small Business Week CELEBRATING SMALL BUSINESS BDC Small Business Week™ October 16-22, 2016 BDC Small Business Week is an annual celebration of entrepreneurship that the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) has organized for almost 40 years. TM
As of December 2015, the Canadian economy totalled 1.17 million
employer businesses. Of these, 97.9 percent were small businesses (i.e. 1-99 employees), 1.8 percent were medium-sized businesses (i.e. 100499 employees) and only 2,933 (0.3 percent) were large businesses (500+ employees). Micro-enterprises (firms with 1 to 4 employees) constitute 54.1 percent of all private employers, which is the largest SME group. If we include employer businesses with 5 to 9 and 10 to 19 employees, together they account for 86% of employer businesses, leaving just 14% in the 20-99 employees group. More than 90% of private sector workers work in small and medium
sized businesses. The week-long event began in 1979 when a few BDC business centres in British Columbia came together to organize a week of activities for entrepreneurs. This first event, and the one that followed in 1980, were so successful that BDC officially launched BDC Small Business Week™ across Canada in 1981. The initiative

Small Business Week was quickly adopted by Canada’s business community. In 2015, close to 300 activities across Canada attracted around 10,000 business people to BDC Small Business Week™. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce and local chambers and boards of trade across Canada collaborate with BDC on organizing Small Business Week events. The Sussex and District Chamber of Commerce, the Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce and The Chamber in Saint John all host awards nights during the fall, often to co-incide with Small Business Week.

SMALL BUSINESS MYTHS If you are considering starting your own small business, make sure you are going into it with the facts. It is not for the timid, but more than anything it takes tenacity and self-motivation, the ability to get up each day and get at it. Many wish to go into business for themselves thinking they will have more free time to do what they want
to do. In one sense that may be true, as you do have more control of your hours. BUT, the reality is that although you may be able to take a couple of hours off to take your child to that orthodontist appointment, you will then find yourself working late at night or all weekend instead. Being an entrepreneur is a lifestyle. Prepare for immense demands on your time. Many look forward to the day they can start their own business, the day they will “have no boss” telling them what to do. It’s true you have no direct boss looking over your shoulder, but

what you have instead is a multitude of bosses. Every customer is in a very real sense a boss, and if you have investors or employees you have a responsibility and accountability to them as well. On the up side, if there are things you want to change or customers you want to fire you can. If you expect to be profitable in a short period of time, take a closer look at your business plan. You may be expert at what you do, but have you planned for how to reach out to your potential customers? A free Facebook page won’t do it, nor will a website. Most new
OW
business owners don’t see a profit for two to three years. It takes that time to develop your unique brand, your marketing materials, and the right plan to generate sales. Do you have sufficient financial resources to reach that point? One often overlooked area of small business start-ups is the bookkeeping. Even a very small business requires precise and lawful bookkeeping. As soon as you hire your first employee it becomes even more complicated. Unless you have accounting training or have a family member who is does and is willing to take this on, get professional
th
help from the beginning to ensure your books are set up correctly. Starting a small business can be an incredibly rewarding experience. The independence and the satisfaction of turning an idea into a successful business are probably what most small business owners find the most rewarding, but there are all kinds of other satisfactions, too, from creating a new process through hearing from a satisfied customer.

UNFILTERED THE MARITIMES AT THEIR BEST In thinking of what to write about I wanted to choose something special, and as a proud Maritimer I thought ‘why not choose the best of the best from right here in our own backyard?’ Two of my absolute favorite wines are made in Nova Scotia and their best pairings come right from our very own Bay of Fundy. I had the honor last fall of visiting the Benjamin Bridge winery, located in a sheltered region within the Gaspereau Valley in Nova Scotia. They are producing some incredible wines that are 100% Nova Scotia grown and hand-crafted. They have been recognized not only nationally but internationally as well. After touring their vineyard and tasting their wines along with head winemaker Jean-Benoit Deslauriers I was very impressed. Their Nova 7 wine is a sell out every year. It is the #1 best selling wine in Nova Scotia, and is now available in every province in Canada (and other countries as well). At $20.49 per bottle it is worth
every penny. In the glass it has a beautiful salmon color, at 7% abv, it is slightly effervescent and off-dry. It is highly aromatic and very flavorful. Another great wine from them is their Benjamin Bridge NV (non-vintage). It is a sparkling wine, and while most people associate sparkling wines with special occasions, I like to drink them ‘just because’. They are refreshing and fun to drink, and pair easily with anything and everything. The Benjamin Bridge NV is the perfect go-to when you are in the mood for a true Champagne, but don’t want to pay the 60+ price tag. At $29.99 a bottle you are getting great quality at a very reasonable price. (The microclimate in Gaspereau Valley is strikingly similar to the Champagne region in France). It is made from a blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, L’Acadie, Vidal and Seyval and is blended using 13 different vintages. I decided to pair it with fresh Atlantic oysters. When consumed together the
fresh acidity of the wine is a perfect match for the salty minerality of the oysters. When purchasing seafood it is best to purchase from a local fish market, to ensure that you are getting the best quality, freshest oysters available. Shucking oysters is easier than you think and most local fish markets will be happy to show you how to do it. It is always fun to enjoy world class treasures from here in our own backyard. 0042

EXERCISE FOR hEALTh EXERCISE AND CANCER The dreaded “C” word, we all have a connection to someone with cancer it has touched our lives at some point in time. Many people are surviving quite well after diagnosis and treatment putting it all behind them but with a new outlook, living better, being more active and eating to live instead of living to eat. Our body is like a non-stop machine always running it’s systems, circulating, pumping, absorbing fuel, expelling waste, computing information and several other functions our bodies do 24 hours a day seven days a week. When it is damaged it repairs itself and does its best to fight off disease and keep strong. Bodies are meant to move, movement keeps us strong, balanced, lubricated and oxygenated. Sometimes an intruder like cancer or other illness make their way in and try to take over whatever tissue or system it has invaded. Keeping ourselves in shape and healthy can ward off inflammation and strengthen our overall health, giving us a strong immune system. Building muscle can give us a great foundation, keeping our bones strong and straight, lots of muscle helps to burn calories helping to keep our fat in control. Balance is better with good muscle tone. Our heart is a muscle, blood flow is improved and oxygen intake is more efficient with a strong heart. People who exercise in the company of others are also giving themselves the support of others, boosting their immunity and making them feel better
about themselves. People tend to have a better workout in the company of others, it makes a person work harder which means more benefit from your workout. A little healthy competition? Or maybe it is the distraction of having people around that just makes the experience more pleasant. People who are recovering from cancer tend to tire easily, have with little or no endurance for the rigors of exercise but if you have a good healthy foundation of strength to begin with your body will have more to fall back on when it is in the middle of fighting, healing and building itself back from the damage of disease. If you are someone who has won, or are in the middle of, a battle with cancer take care of yourself eat foods which are full of nutrients to fuel your body and make you stronger. If you want to regain the strength you used to have start slow, a little at a time, do not use your healing energy trying to be where you used to be. 0046

INVESTING IN YOUR FUTURE INVEST LIKE A BUSINESS-OWNER Here’s what an emotional investor does: Checks the market constantly, worries about every uptick and downtick, rapidly realigns his or her portfolio at the first sign of a stock or market downturn, tends to jump into and out of the market chasing hot stocks and dumping down stocks. And here’s one other thing an emotional investor does: Severely limits his or her chances for long-term financial success. Rational investors know that the best approach is to take the emotion out of investing. Many of them are businessowners and replace emotional investing with a business-owner approach. They have found success incorporating these business-owner principles into their investment plans. Clear investment goals: Rational investors set goals and have the discipline to stick to them. Yes, they want to make money but they set their return objectives against clear short- and long-term goals.

The Sussex Herald
Know when to delegate: Successful business-owners know they can’t do everything themselves so they hire capable people with the talent and ability to enhance their business. Similarly, rational investors delegate their investment decisions to professionals who have the talent and ability to help them achieve and sustain their financial goals. Be risk averse: Both rational businessowners and rational investors definitely want to create wealth but they also understand the need for wealth protection. That’s why their portfolios are carefully crafted and well-diversified to reduce risk and provide more stable returns over the long-term. Just the facts: Rational investors make investment decisions based on facts not on feelings. They do not get caught up in “the investment flavour of the moment” and are careful to keep their emotions out of investment choices. In the know: Rational business-owners keep a daily watch on investment news and consider its implications but like
rational investors, they also keep their focus on long-term trends not day-to-day fluctuations. Seize opportunity: Rational individuals, business-owners and investors alike, trust their intelligence. They actively seek money-making opportunities – especially in a volatile market - by hedging, shorting and using other investment strategies to pick up assets at bargain prices. If an unemotional business-owner approach to investing appeals to you – and it should because it’s often a better path to financial success – then talk to your professional advisor about the investment strategies that work best for you. 0036

ASK MARY I’M A LOST SOUL. HOW DO I START LIVING AGAIN? We may cling to the past because it is known to us. We all struggle with separation, their memory is still vivid to us and we miss them terribly. We notice every couple and they seem to intensify our sense of isolation. We no longer have the identity of, “husband” or “wife” and so we must have courage to redefine ourselves. We would do well to recognize the courage we have within us. History tells us that humans can find the courage to not only survive but to transform something horrible into something of value. I don’t know how someone remains strong after the death of a child but I do know that it’s possible to learn from our pain in such a way that we can become of value to others and to ourselves. Don’t focus on the pain by asking questions like, “Why did this happen to me?” Instead ask the question “Now that this has happened, how can I be of value?” Move the questions away from
the “me” focus. It’s hard to understand that this is all a normal part of grieving and it is important for those around you to understand that. When we have a significant loss the grieving process may well continue into the second or third year. Grief is a turning point in your life. You, and only you, can decide to grieve and heal or be a victim. This doesn’t mean that you aren’t entitled to mourn. All of us have the right to grieve because if grief is ignored it can block us from healing. Grief may feel like a mental illness; no sleep, anxiety, fear, loss of interest and thoughts of worthlessness can all add up to feeling like “a lost soul”. Facing our loss is part of travelling on this journey of grief and that’s how healing begins. Look into your past and see when you had other losses; job changes, illness, children moving out, divorce, financial difficulties or tragic accidents. You survived them and acquired wisdom
and maturity that often comes through hardship. This is true for you today, even though it is hard to imagine now, but moving through the grief process takes time and healing comes from within. Reaching out to others, family and friends is a sign of wanting to heal. Being kind to yourself is a great start but you also need to acknowledge that you are not alone. Allow others to help you as you adjust to this period of redefining who you are and what you want your future to look like. Take care of yourself. 0016

TALES FROM THE CAMERA BAG FALL FOLIAGE Ah, the season of sweaters and walks with your sweetie, kicking up leaves and enjoying a mulled cider. The air is cool and the woods fragrant with fallen leaves. It is a time when mother nature dons her most colourful of clothes, as she brings us into winter. Making images seems so much easier this time of the year. Heck you could just throw your camera in the air and get a great shot, what, with all the colour. But, the best images are planned. Plan to go a location where there are lots of deciduous trees, as they are the most colourful. Of course if you are fortunate enough you can travel to see these colours; places like Cape Breton, New England and the aspens of Colorado are famous for their fall foliage. If staying local, get up early and look for the fields shrouded in mist or river banks of fog. Not only does this add drama to your images but it also makes the colours more vibrant. After you have enjoyed
getting those great landscapes, it’s now time to get some detail shots. Park yourself under or in front of some red leaves with the sky behind; these back-lit images of the blue sky and the coloured leaves will be wonderful. Nature spreads her bounty everywhere and my favourite place to look is in the bottom of small creeks. The running water over the colourful leaves creates gorgeous impressionistic photos. Experiment with your shutter speed to achieve the effect you are looking for. Speaking of shutter speed, consider slowing your shutter speed a bit to capture motion as the trees or sunflowers sway in the gentle breezes. Now, go a step further and zoom in or out while you are taking that shot, more impressionistic art for your wall. Waterfalls are one of my favourite things to shoot. A tripod is a must here, as are both, my polarizing filter (to reduce the glare on the leaves and to enhance my
colours) and a neutral density filter, which allows me slower shutter speeds so I can create those creamy, milky soft waterfalls. Now, that you invested time to get these shots, don’t just take one image, take several! Vary your depth of field, change your white balance, shoot from all kinds of different angles. It is only when I give some time and effort that Mother Nature finally shows me what I was drawn to in the first place. Shoot-Print-Share. Edited for space, see full article at: ossekeag.ca. 0032

LIVE WELL CHANGE A Buddhist saying says: “When the student is ready, the Teacher will appear!” I have found it to be true, that the right time for the message is as important as the message itself. How is it that an individual can hear a message over and over again for many years and then, one day, it finally resonates within them? A definition of insanity is said to be doing the same things over and over expecting different results. Until one day, the individual sees the solution with great clarity and cannot understand why it took so long, when the answer was there all along. The answers to why the solution was not seen before are varied: stubbornness, determination to prove others wrong, shame and embarrassment, the desire to be right or wanting to do it our way, and so on. Individuals might experience great pain and have significant losses and still not be able or willing to see what others can see so clearly. For example, someone living in an abusive relationship could be encouraged
and counselled to leave the abuser by family, friends, professionals, and so on; yet, that individual might keep clinging to the hope that the partner will change if only they can find the partner right help! All the while the abuse continues. Consider also an individual who wants to become financially solvent. He/she consolidates loans, pays off debts and credit cards, and gets set up on a budget. A year or so later, however, the financial crisis is back, perhaps even leading to bankruptcy. Why? Because the change was only short-lived, superficial, and to avert crisis. In both cases, the “student” was not ready. Sadly, we may see loved ones going through crisis after crisis and feel helpless. The reality is that people change only when they reach “their bottom” and are willing to make different choices. Also, such changes will likely be in a way and time of their choosing and not ours. After waiting a long time, we may ask: “Why bother?” Well, the truth of the
UNEMPLOYED?

matter is that often we are just gardeners who plant the seeds of change, and though we may not see the fruits of our labor come to fruition when we want, the change we hoped and prayed for may come when we least expect it. Continuing to nag, beg, plead, threaten, cajole or threaten abandonment does not work. Rather, we need to be hopeful, encouraging, and supportive for the time when the individual is ready to make different choices and try new and healing behaviors. Willingness and openness will help the “student” become ready for the “teacher.” 0008

DOLLARS & SENSE TALK ABOUT MONEY… WHERE DO WE START? November is Financial Literacy Month and if you are associated with the financial world, you will see promotions and seminars all around you messaging the need for increased financial literacy among Canadians. This is true, no one can deny it, statistically we are not saving, we are carrying too much debt and insolvency is on the rise. But for those that fall statistically in the median, which headline appears for you? From our experience the most effective way to increase your financial literacy is to talk about money. Usually what begins the money conversation is a crisis; that could be a loss of income, unpaid debt, fines or family situation. Trying to talk about your financial situation on top of dealing with a personal stressful situation does not create a warm and fuzzy environment for money talk. Even if it is not a crisis typically the conversation starts with what is owed and how much was spent on the credit card. Money conversations
to be effective and positive for all in involved should start with: “how can we work together?” One way to start the conversation is to work together and write down a couple of your financial goals (short and long term). Do this separately and then look to see where you have goals that are in common, or which ones you can work on together. One person could have the goal of paying down debt, while the other may be more specific with getting rid of the overdraft. Looking at where you have goals in common, as well as the areas that your partner finds important is an important step towards making the money conversation a positive experience. From this exercise together you can pick which goals to focus on first and then plan for the others. Once you have determined your collective financial goal(s), you can look at your budget. This will be important when it comes to saving for a goal or reducing your debt for a goal. Depending
on your budgeting history you may be surprised on how much you are spending on certain expenses. Keeping your goals in mind will help you make the important decisions on these expenses. Keep in mind you don’t always have to agree with each other, but you have to understand that we all handle money in different ways. If the conversation starts to move in a direction of where you are finding fault and barriers, it may be the time to re-group and revisit the financial goals you have set together. 0005

LISTEN IN LISA FISCHER IS A STAR I have watched the music documentary “20 Feet From Stardom” four times now. I have a healthy appetite for music documentaries, but most of them leave me pretty underwhelmed. It needs to start with a great story with genuinely unique characters who seem to leap out of your screen. Some of the best bring you into their creative world and time warp you to the place it all happened making you understand their remarkable perspective around the subject matter, whatever it may be. I recently had a phone interview with one of the stars, and my favorite singer, Lisa Fischer from “20 feet From Stardom”. She really stood out to me as someone who was not only a mercurial talent and star, but also one of the most real people in an industry where many people seem to lose that essential sense of humanity and authenticity. Lisa exceeded all my expectations when we spoke and I am a fan for life. If you haven’t seen the movie “20 Feet
From Stardom” and you’re a music fan (of course you are if you read my columns) you need to check it out now on Netflix. The 2013 documentary won an Oscar in 2014! It was directed by Morgan Neville who also directed Keith Richards: Under the Influence, another favorite of mine which you can also watch on Netflix. This film’s inspiration came from Music executive Gil Friesen’s curiosity to know more about the lives of some of the industry’s more iconic background singers. My interest in this documentary comes from that same insatiable desire to really dig deep into that world of making records and all the intricate details happening in front and beyond the curtain. Other films that satisfied that musical urge for me recently included; The Wrecking Crew and Muscle Shoals. Some of the obvious stars in this film (20 feet…) are Darlene Love and Merry Clayton, but the blockbuster star to me that really
shines is Lisa Fischer. Lisa’s raw, soulful and joyous voice has graced the stages for The Rolling Stones, Sting, Tina Turner, Luther Vandross and NIN (Nine Inch Nails). Ms. Lisa Fischer and her band Grand Baton will be performing at the Imperial Theatre, Friday, November 11 at 8:00pm. I can guarantee you that this just may be the best show happening in the city all year! Shows like this coming to town are heaven sent so don’t miss it.

MUSINGS SELFIES - GOOD OR BAD? Let’s be clear right up front, I am NOT of the digital generation. I do own a cell phone... which stays turned off in my purse. I have never used it for taking photos, I have a digital camera for that. My plan costs me $10 per month and often months go by without it being used. If I’m not a dinosaur, I am at least a close cousin. It seems everywhere we go these days, people are spending more time interacting with their phones or other electronic devices than they do talking to the people they are with. Add to that, this obsession with taking photos of themselves doing everything from eating lunch to making pouty faces in front of various landmarks. Is this simply the new version of the graffiti artist spray-painting “Kilroy was here”, or is there something else going on? Are we raising a whole generation of narcissists? Certainly we all want to be liked and respected and even admired, but this focus on physical appearance and need for online validation concerns me (but remember I am a dinosaur). On the beautiful Saturday of
Thanksgiving weekend we went to King’s Landing for the first time in several years. Although there were lots of other visitors that day, the venue is large enough that there was no sense of crowding. As I observed others around me, so often instead of taking a photo of a building or a display or an item of historical interest, what was instead happening was someone standing in front of an item and taking a picture of themself. Certainly I understand doing this on occasion to have as a memory of the great day enjoyed with friends and family. But, there were those who seemed to spend little time actually seeing the venue and learning about what was like for our ancestors, preferring to take photo after photo of themselves... perhaps looking for that elusive “perfect” picture that will get them mega likes on the FB page? Social media displays a highly edited version of life, a reality TV version instead of the real thing. People do not post unflattering photos of themselves. They record the positive and happy moments to share with the world, creating a world that is “perfect”. And then they forget that
everyone is doing the same and start to compare themselves to others and find themselves lacking. I am sure that for most selfies are fun and harmless. A new way to communicate. And goodness knows I could use the memory boost of having a collection of selfies to look back at! But I don’t expect I will be jumping on that bandwagon anytime soon. “If the future historians were to digitally unearth our generation, they would decipher the facial expressions on the "Selfie's" as the generation of people suffering from widespread constipation!” ~ Vishwanath S J. 0001
