Avery Mulvihill, 8, escapes through a field in a scene from the David Ridgen film Cicada. This is the first acting job for the young Arnpriorite, whose family says is taking the whole experience in stride. Ridgen, who calls Arnprior his hometown, has several Ottawa Valley locations in mind for the movie. There are opportunities to contribute to the award-winning filmmaker’s project.

Nick Smith Centre will be affected by lack of agreement: Mayor Reid Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News – Programs, hours and services at the Nick Smith Centre could be cut if a joint recreation and library agreement cannot be reached between Arnprior and McNab-Braeside, confirmed Mayor David Reid. “The Nick Smith Centre with two ice pads and a pool is really designed to facilitate more than just the Arnprior residents,� said Reid. “It’s a fairly substantial complex, the costs of running

that, it warrants participation by our neighbours.� The cost of running the facility takes the McNab-Braeside property taxes into account. “If we don’t have that obviously the finances are going to be impacted and as a result programs will be impacted,� he added. “So I don’t want to speculate at what that might be, but that is the reality. There are going to be some fairly significant impacts to the town of Arnprior and people that use that facility.� It could translate into the closure of

No MB support for JRC objectives News - While the joint recreation committee - formed to come up with funding proposals for shared services - hoped for formal support for its mission statement and goals and objectives from McNab-Braeside council, they’re not getting it. Council rejected a motion to support the items following a discussion at the July 2 meeting. Committee members were upset after discovering council had already decided funding will not be coming from the 2014 tax base. And that a survey was released asking who uses town facilities and is prepared to support them financially.

The McNab-Braeside Township has declared it would no longer help pay for the operation of the Nick Smith Centre through property taxes. Mayor Reid doesn’t know why there is even a roadblock to a long-term agreement between the municipalities. See SHOULD, Page 2

Mayor Reid would like to see the joint recreation and library agreement become an election issue. “Certainly I’m not hopeful that we can get a long term agreement in place given the current circumstances,” he said. “So I think the best alternative would be to try to continue to work on the framework of the library and recreation agreement over the next few months.” “Get them in place and it will be clear to McNabBraeside residents and people that are potential running for McNab-Braeside council what the framework agreement will be and what the inherent costs will be,” he added.

“I guess they are concerned on the impact on the taxes, but I think it’s pretty clear from whom I talked to that when they look at the actual costs and when they are actually told the true cost of providing those services,” he said. “They think it is a fair deal.” In 2012, the average household contributed about $55 from taxes to recreation. This could increase every year, but Arnprior council has decided to freeze this amount for the next year as a short-term solution. This amount allows McNab-Braeside residents to use all of Arnprior and Renfrew library and recreation services. Without an agreement in place, township residents will have to pay surcharges and extra fees to participate in activities. This cost will be somewhere in the neighborhood of $150 to $200 per user depending on the number of users, said Mayor Reid. “People that have financial issues will not be able to afford that on top of the regular user fees,” he said. As usage decreases, these fees will increase causing more people to stop using the centre. This will create a vicious circle which would result in cut programs and hours. “This is why we are strongly opposed to a user funded agreement surcharge,” said the Mayor. The lack of a long-term agreement has caused frustration for many members of council.

“I’m just getting a little frustrated with the ratepayer in Arnprior subsidizing that community,” said Coun. Walter Stack. There needs to be a Plan B put in place as Coun. Stack is not optimist that there will ever be a longterm agreement in place unless there is a leadership change. “It’s the seniors and the kids that get the biggest whap,” he added. “Most adults if they really want to be involved in something can direct their personal resources towards it, but seniors are constricted from income and opportunities in terms of travel with transportation and everything else. The kids are going to get beat up in this process. It’s time to draw a line in the sand.”

Disagreements over project priorities Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - Streetscaping and revitalizing of Arnprior’s downtown core has been put off until 2018. It is one of several projects in the 10-year long range capital forecast whose date of completion has been a point of contention during the June 24 council meeting. Priority should be given to the downtown core, Coun. Lynn Grinstead said “I don’t know how the rest of council feels, but waiting until 2018 for that was just not in my forecast,” said Grinstead. “I am seeing that as a project to be looked at a lot sooner then that.” It is a more difficult project to accomplish, needing a large amount of money, but will receive government funding, said Mayor David Reid. He would like to see the project brought forward, “but how that can be accomplished I don’t know. “We made a commitment to the revitalization the streetscape,” he said. Other projects, such as paving the Nick Smith Centre’s parking lot forecasted for 2014, should be pushed back instead, said Coun. Grinstead. “I know that the parking at the Nick Smith Centre is a hassle as it is, but I don’t think spending $200,000 on paving it supersedes the downtown core,” she said. “There are dollars that we are putting in other areas that I think are not as heavy in the importance as continuing on the downtown core.” Director of Recreation Glenn Arthur believes this project is necessary as a major convention is coming next year.

“If it happens to rain a couple days before or during, that parking lot will be a quagmire for those on site,” said Arthur. “People wouldn’t be very happy with that and it certainly wouldn’t show good on the town. That’s why the paving is being put there at that time.” The area is also used by heavy equipment which tears up the gravel parking lot. For Mayor Reid the maintenance of local roads is an important priority “if you look at some of the roads in Arnprior.” “Some rehabilitation, some maintenance on these roads would give them, extend their life cycle,’ said Mayor Reid. “I think it is important that we be proactive on that.” He does acknowledge that adding money into road projects would bulk up the budget, but hopes to find another solution. Coun. Ted Strike agreed that maintaining roads is integral to prevent them from having to be rebuilt completely, which is much more costly and time consuming. “I think we have about 40 per cent of our roads that are now beyond preserving and have moved into the rebuild category,” he said. “They are maybe rebuilding one a year.” “If in fact we don’t do something to increase that funding, the other 60 per cent of roads that we have out there will fall into the rebuild category,” he added. As part of the 10-year long range capital forecast, capital projects have been slated over the next decade. It prevents any spikes or sharp raises in taxes while helping the town budget. It is a changing tool and is altered to reflect town needs and council desires. “There could be things dropped, there could be things added, there could be changes,” said Mayor Reid. “It will change as we deliberate depending on the ability of funds,” he added.

Nailing it at the museum Arnprior and District Museum curator Janet Carlile shows off a recent discovery made on the museum grounds. The item is a wrought iron nail that is about 20 inches long and likely dates back to the 1830s. She found it as she was tidying up outside at the side of the museum. The back parking lot of the building is currently blocked off and under construction as a wheelchair-accessible ramp is installed. The second floor of the museum is also under construction.

County reverses position, agrees to spend on railway bed acquisition Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Renfrew’s County pledge to not spend municipal dollars for any purchase of the abandoned Canadian Pacific railway bed won’t be realized. Following discussion in county council chambers June 26, 13 of 17 county councillors were present to vote on whether to spend up to $50,000 for a property value appraisal to be conducted for Renfrew County, Lanark County and the Township of Papineau-Cameron. Those are the three regions through which the nearly 190-mile railway bed runs. Most of the railbed’s equipment was salvaged last year, except for signal equipment that will be collected at a later date. Ten of 13 voting county councillors supported the resolution, for a weighted vote of

110 to 23. Opposing the motion were Harold Weckworth of North Algona Wilberforce, Mary Campbell of McNab-Braeside, and TammyLea Stewart of Head, Clara and Maria, who said her municipality had already voted to not provide municipal money for rail bed acquisition. The 10 supportive county councillors included Bob Sweet of Petawawa who sits on the committee that is negotiating with Canadian Pacific. RESOLUTION

The resolution called for county council to approve a maximum of $50,000 for appraisal and seed money in support of an anticipated government grant. Sweet indicated the county’s portion of any appraisal would be about

$10,000 if the county receives anticipated government grant assistance. A similar resolution will have to be passed by Lanark County and the Township of Papineau-Cameron if the appraisal is to be conducted. Based on mileage through their respective municipalities, Renfrew County would be responsible for about 70 per cent of the appraisal’s entire cost. That cost is expected to be about $50,000. With a government grant, the county’s portion would be closer to $10,000, said Sweet. The eventual purchase price of the railway bed would not cost real tax dollars. “It’s no secret that we hope to be able to provide a tax receipt for purchase,” said Sweet, knowing the county did that to purchase the former Canadian Tire building in Renfrew to create Renfrew County Place. That property was appraised at about $2 million.

OLA leads opposition to Renfrew County Official Plan Speaking on behalf of the Renfrew County chapter of the Ontario Landowners Association, and accompanied by OLA researcher Liz Marshall, Burns said: “This Official Plan is a News - The Renfrew County Landowners huge bylaw created by Renfrew County that are leading resistance to Renfrew County’s Ofwill bring about more regulation and policies ficial Plan. that ultimately will tighten the noose around the necks of our municipalities who must Public Vehicle/Equipment Auction conform to the Official Plan with still even more regulation and policies upon their ratepayers.” 9:00 am council chambers Civic #2250, County Road 31, Winchester, ON wasThepacked and overflowing.

Before the county council vote, Sweet said, “If we cannot go forward with this, I would think the CP rail negotiations would be finished.” Arnprior Reeve Walter Stack said support of the resolution was absolutely necessary if Renfrew County is to be considered a serious buyer of the discontinued railway bed. McNab-Braeside Mayor Campbell questioned the logic in pledging up to $50,000, to which Sweet said this was a contingency, in the event a government grant did not materialize. Weckworth expressed concern about the cost of underlying infrastructure, such as bridges and culverts. Sweet said the appraisal would cover the cost of land and that infrastructure. “The window of opportunity is here now,” said Whitewater Region Reeve Don Rathwell. The possible appraiser, whose name was not mentioned, specializes in railway appraisals. council, she said the landowners object to the Official Plan “because you have not identified within your plans how this municipal corporation intends to obtain the consent of private property owners, nor have to you identified how the municipal corporation intends to enter into any agreements with private property owners so that the municipal corporation may acquire the property (as required by legislation) for the purpose of allowing it to exercise its authority.” She also pointed the finger at the Ministry of Natural Resources while noting that MNR claims the land owned by the province makes up 87 per cent of land mass. “Our concern,” she said, “is that the true desire of the province is to obtain control of the remaining 13 per cent of the land mass belonging to private property owner.” That control, she explained, would happen “through the Algonquin land claim rights and through enforcement of the Official Plans from our municipalities.” In conclusion, she said the OLA believes municipal corporate officials have been inadequately informed about current legislation and are, therefore, “being manipulated to enforce regulation that places them in jeopardy and places the municipality at risk of financial instability. We are here to protect our property rights and to protect our municipalities.”

County backs farmland tax revenue change Steve Newman Steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Renfrew County has called for the revamping of the Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund, so all municipalities receive full reimbursement of lost property-tax revenue on farmland and managed forest properties. County council has unanimously supported the resolution. The county says this should be supported because the Farm Tax Rebate Program and Managed Forest Tax Incentive were previously fully-funded

Men &

by the Ontario government, but are now mainly funded through municipalities’ own property taxes. As the resolution indicates, rural municipalities now absorb the loss of 75 per cent of the property tax revenue from their farmland and managed forest properties.

Cleanliness meets dogliness Major bicycle event Sunday pleboeuf@metroland.com

If your dog needs a good scrub, some pampering or extra polishing, look no further than the upcoming Wiggle Wiggle Wash and Spa. The fundraiser will allow dog owners to treat their pooches to a basic dog wash, a ea bath, a basic groom or something a bit more glamorous. Nail painting, fur feather and body paint is a unique option that will allow dogs to let out their colourful diva. “Everything is completely animal friendly,â€? assured event coordinator Valerie Hemphill. The event is held on July 14, between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. All the money collected during the event goes directly to help the Arnprior and District Humane Society and is held on its grounds. The event is new to the society’s roster of fundraisers “because we had a tough year last.â€? It has seen a surge of new animals as well as health issues. It is a no-kill shelter and these animals must be fed, sheltered and healed. “It’s so important that we have these animals until we have a great home for them,â€? said Hemphill. “It cost a lot of money and there was nothing in the summer. So I thought I would create something that would get the families out there.â€? Humans will also enjoy the day’s activity. There is a barbecue, music and several vendors and exhibitors on site selling things like collars, beds, clothing, Pupcakes and more. A pet photographer, dog trainer, Royal Canin representatives and the Ottawa Valley Dog Whisper are just a few of experts coming to share tricks to dealing with uffy. “These are people that are really into animals,â€?

said Hemphill. “The people are so excited,â€? she added. “Because it is so new, it’s really exciting.â€? There will be several hundred dollars in prizes to be won. While planning the event, she was worried that she would run into several roadblocks. Instead the support from local businesses as well as area dog lovers has been overwhelming. “I chose downtown Arnprior to do my shopping for my gifts and gift certiďŹ cates because I wanted to promote shopping in our downtown area because they have supported us so well,â€? said Hemphill. The fundraiser’s location was chosen for speciďŹ c reasons. Hemphill was the Arnprior-based OSPCA Agent for six years and has seen exactly what these homeless animals go through. The fundraiser allows people to look into the shelter’s inner workings. “There is an amazing amount of people who have no idea we have a human society in town,â€? she said. “Let alone that it is a no-kill shelter.â€? “We’ve had a little bit of bad press about cats and why we won’t adopt them out like that,â€? she added. “And I want people to understand that even though it looks crowded these animals have amazing home with the most loving and caring women I have ever met. Their needs are met to 150 per cent.â€? She hopes that it will become an annual event and create growth within the organization. The basic dog wash costs $10, the ea bath is $15, the basic grooming is $30 and the toe nail painting, body stenciling and fur feathers costs $12 - all of which goes to help the organization. Many vendors have also offered part of the proďŹ ts to the shelter.

AORS organizers spread the word about 2014 event News - It’s almost a year away, but already the County of Renfrew is spreading the word about the next Municipal Trade Show of the Association of Ontario Road Supervisors (AORS). The event is coming to Arnprior on June 4 and 5 with the help of an organizational committee chaired by Steve Boland, the county’s manager of operations. Its vice-chair is Chris Kunopaski, roads superintendent for AdmastonBromley Township. Boland spoke at the June 26 meeting of county council to provide details on the preparation and importance of the annual trade show, which is expected to attract more than 2,000 visitors and about 200 vendors. The 2013 show took place in Brantford. “The two-day show pro-

vides an opportunity for both the suppliers and public works employees to share what they know, about materials and services and products that are available to the roads industry and to the public works industry, and how best to construct and maintain what we’re tasked with on a day-to-day basis,” said Boland. The show also provides the suppliers with a forum to showcase their products. One of the largest trade shows of its kind in Canada, the 2014 show will take place at the Nick Smith Centre. Its executive committee includes Mark Behm, director of public works in Laurentian Valley, who will look after entertainment for the show. Renfrew County business development officer Craig Kelley will look after promotions and advertising, while Boland

is overseeing logistics. The trade show’s volunteer ambassador is former county councillor Ted Strike of Arnprior, while the trade show committee also includes AORS representative Gerry Haley of Laurentian Valley, treasurer Rick O’Brien of Golden Lake and Fred Blackstein of Pembroke. “I think we’ve put together a good executive team, and we’re in the process of building the rest of the team,” said Boland. With the trade show representing a good opportunity to promote tourism and economic development locally, Boland added, “Let’s maximize the benefits of having the show close by.” It’s the first time the show has come to Renfrew County since the 1992 edition in Petawawa.

EDITORIAL

Save agreements for election The polarizing issue of library and recreation agreements between the town and township is among the biggest issues to hit the community in recent memory. Hence the status quo should remain until after the next election. The town is looking for new ways to generate revenue. Mayor David Reid researched similar agreements by neighbouring municipalities and determined Arnprior can expect more of a contribution from McNab-Braeside. However, for him, the issue runs deeper than mere dollars and cents. He maintains that the township needs to “pay its fair share.� That brings the issue into the moral realm, something of a big picture vision for where he sees future relations and governance expectations. Should the whole contribute to services used only by a few? If not, where does the slippery slope end: with residents paying to snowplow their road but not others? The township is looking for ways to save revenue. Mayor Mary Campbell maintains that folks are taxed enough. They can’t afford a newly renovated library and ever-increasing costs for activities such as minor hockey and swimming. For her, too, it is a big picture issue. Camp-

bell insists that many of her residents expect to live within their means; to participate only in activities they can afford. Some politicians hold that tax revenue exists to invest (spend) on projects and services that will generate more tax revenue. Campbell, at least on this issue, is the type of politician who wants to keep taxes low in order to protect the most vulnerable. There is no shortage of examples in the media showing where governments invest poorly and have grown too large. Some would argue even more tax dollars could be saved by doing away with small municipalities all together. Campbell is playing with fire when she follows that view of politics to its logical conclusion. Surely she would maintain taxpayers are getting their money’s worth with her council? Reid should also tread carefully. As a businessman he was used to getting his way. The rookie politician probably didn’t anticipate the backlash he would get when he first proposed upping the township’s contribution. Will his legacy be that of the mayor who cost the community important services? Clearly, two distinct visions are at play. Yet neither mayor ran openly on them during the last election. Let the voters decide in 2014.

Does council not value reading and physical activity? To the editor: I am perturbed that the McNab-Braeside council has decided to no longer provide funding after 2013 for the recreation and library services located in our neighbouring towns of Renfrew and Arnprior. We pay through various taxes for all of the services we receive from governments whether municipal, provincial or federal. Our municipality does a decent job of providing services such as fire protection, road maintenance, garbage and recycling collection and the provision of local recreation facilities such as ball diamonds, soccer fields and beach/ boat launch sites. I wonder why council has decided that the library and recreation services located in Renfrew and Arnprior are no longer worthy of funding through the taxes we pay. Does council believe reading and physical activity are not valuable and vital to foster a vibrant, healthy and informed community? I would hope not but it would seem that is the case. What council is proposing, that only users or supporters of library and recreation services would pay for them, is just another form of taxation – a tax on reading and physical activity.

It is a form of taxation that would especially hurt those who have a limited income. For shame. If we need to increase taxes to pay for the right to enjoy these services, then be bold enough and truthful enough to say so. Some services should be paid for by all and library and recreation services belong in that group. Spreading the cost out to everyone who pays property taxes makes them more accessible to all. It seems to me that the survey question that council should be asking the residents of McNab-Braeside is, “Do you want the township to continue to fund participation in the library and recreation services available in Renfrew and Arnprior from the taxes you pay to McNab-Braeside?� And at the same time give us a clear indication of how much taxes might have to increase to continue to pay the towns of Arnprior and Renfrew for the privilege of using their facilities. That is a survey I’ll answer. This survey doesn’t ask the right question. Sincerely, Barbara White Renfrew

Setback provision makes quarry motion illegal To the Editor: Well, I have been proved wrong. Our municipal governing body did lack what it takes to do the right thing. Some of our councillors may have been too busy to read material provided to them and I do hope they never decide to run for office again. First and foremost, they had no right to bring a motion to the floor to vote on whether or not the aggregate extraction at the Braeside quarry could be closer than 300 meters to residents’ dwelling. Provincial law states very clearly that the measurement is from the property line. You cannot use someone’s personal property for

All the excitement and attention was on the asphalt plant and little attention was paid to the remainder of what Miller Co. was requesting.

Shooting beavers with a camera in Norway than challenging. After several frustrating, rain-filled days my luck changed. One evening I found beavers in a meandering creek near an old bridge. Crouching behind the stony structure I acquired good photos. I returned at 4 a.m. the next morning and was delighted to find two beavers active there. After a few more successful days I explored upstream and found two places on the shore with fresh beaver sign. One was ideal for early morning viewing so I returned the next day at four a.m., quietly sneaking through Gray Alders to a good vantage point where I began “the Wait.” An hour passed without beavers. As I stood silently, chickadee-like birds called tits flitted through the alders, and Fieldfares - the

delight the animal veered toward the opposite shore and climbed out of the water. Using its front feet it pulled earth under its body before hunching over and depositing castoreum – beaver scent - on the material. Its chemical “no trespassing sign” posted, the beaver returned to the water. It swam across the creek and approached within two metres. I didn’t move, and for several long minutes the beaver floated beside me, constantly sniffing the air, obviously detecting my scent. Eventually it swam out of sight. A few minutes passed and then I heard something behind me. I slowly turned and was astounded to see a beaver sitting a mere metre from me It waddled out of sight and then I heard it noisily chewing wood. I dared not move for fear of scaring it. After several excruciatingly long minutes the sounds stopped. Then I heard a splash and through the corner of my eye caught motion. The beaver was swimming underwater, its flat tail slowing swinging from side to side as huge webbed hind feet propelled it to the far shore. Once there it climbed out of the water and again deposited its scent. My final morning in Norway I returned to the creek one last time. This time three-and-a-half hours passed before the beaver made an appearance. The wait was well worth it, however. After scent marking, it cut down a small shrub and devoured its leaves next to the shore. And for a brief period it groomed its fur, behaviour I had been hoping to observe during my visit. The challenges were great but in only two weeks I managed to attain my desired photos of Eurasian Beavers. However, for my success I must thank another party: our local beavers. After all, they trained me well in the ways of their kind! The Nature Number is 613-3872503; email is mruntz@start.ca R0012188792

Recreation stance will hurt low income families To the Editor: I am writing this letter in complaint of the Recreation and Library Non Resident Service Agreement Survey and the stated intent of the council to not fund the library and recreation services for McNabBraeside. If the council has already decided that they will not fund these agreements, why have they sent this survey at all to the residents? I can see no reason whatsoever to fill this survey out if a decision on this matter has already been made as stated in the letter I received. I resent the time, effort and money that has been spent producing and mailing this survey out to residents when I can see no benefit except perhaps to justify a regressive decision made by our town council. I find the table of actual payments made to the towns detailed in the survey as a method of influencing the survey respondents into declining their support by not stating the obvious. In order to make an informed decision, everyone needs to know how many households contribute to these payments so that a per household contribution to library and recreation services can be

calculated. If I estimate that there are 5,000 households in McNabBraeside (which is a wild stab in the dark on my part), I calculate that my household contribution to all services will be approximately $60. This calculation is based on what the 2014 contributions will be to Arnprior plus the 2013 numbers for Renfrew divided by 5,000. Currently there are four members of my family living in my house, which means we would personally contributing $15 each in 2014 towards library and recreation services in both Arnprior and Renfrew in 2014. I consider that a deal, and a great community service to everyone living in this community. Finally, I really take great exception to the fact that cancelling these agreements will inevitably hurt the lowest income people in our community the very most. As has always been the case, some of the people who are struggling the most to make ends meet will be the young families. Cancelling these deals will mean that their children will be denied the ability to join many recreation activities that in no way can be made up through the services that can be provided

by McNab-Braeside. It does not matter how much you try, you cannot provide a swimming pool, indoor rinks and the wealth of programs and library services provided through Arnprior and Renfrew for $300,000/year. I also feel that the retired people in our community that are trying to make ends meet will be hurt by this decision. I will not be filling in your survey, and I will not be voting for this council in the future. I agree that controlling costs is the job of our town council, but this witch hunt is not something that sits well with me. Cutting services to what will amount to be the lowest income people in our community, the militant and aggressive stance I have seen publicly detailed in the Arnprior Chronicle, and the actual clouding of this issue by publishing half the information needed to make a decision for our residents have permanently turned me off of this council. I look forward to our next election. (This letter was also sent to McNab-Braeside Mayor Mary Campbell and council members.) Debbie Currie White Lake

Connected to your community

Let’s get the record straight To the editor: It seems necessary to set the record straight after all the confusion of the last few weeks. After six years the council of McNab-Braeside has made a decision on the expansion and industrialization of the Braeside Quarry. At the recent Planning Advisory Committee meeting, Council voted not to subject the quarry neighbours to a permanent asphalt plant in their back yards. That was good! But council members Christine Blimkie and Aldene Styles did vote in favour of just precisely that. The second part of the Miller request was for the expanded size of the quarry. The motion that Mayor Campbell had originally made and Council passed was to have a separation distance of 450 m to the property lines of the neighbours to the industry, because that was the distance Gary McLaren of MNR said complaints from residents generally stopped and there was less chance of adverse effects. But when the decision was to be ratified at the next council meeting, Brad McIlquahm moved that the quarry be allowed to expand to within 300 m of the neighbours’ houses, not even their property lines. This means, in effect, that Miller is using neighbours’ property for the 300 m buffer required by law. The law states clearly that this 300 m separation distance must be from the property line of the sensitive receptor, (the neighbour) to the Class III Industry, not the neighbour’s house! Needless to say, neighbours are upset to suddenly hear that the property they own, that they have been paying taxes on for years, property that had always belonged to them had suddenly, with a simple vote of a majority of Council become land they

could no longer use, land that was a buffer zone for Miller Paving Ltd. Think about it. You certainly wouldn’t allow your children to play there as they could be hit by flyrock from an errant blast. Remember that flyrock covered Usborne St. in August 2007 and did a great deal of damage to a neighbour’s property all within 300 m of the blast? How do you ever sell your property when you have to tell the buyer that actually all this property really belongs to Miller even though you have to pay for it and pay taxes on it? One neighbour will lose close to 50 acres of her property as a Miller buffer. A Class III Industry is loud, dusty and polluting. That’s why the law sets minimum separation distances so the business can operate and the homes surrounding it can enjoy the use of their property – all of it! A reasonable compromise would have been to allow the quarry to expand to 300 m from neighbours’ property lines, in other words to follow the law. This would allow Miller over 100 years’ worth of aggregate, and would allow neighbours to keep their property. Brad McIlquahm’s motion also allowed all of the Miller property that is not to be currently extracted, to be zoned for aggregate reserve. In doing so he ignored the Provincial Policy Statement, again the law, requiring the municipality to zone to protect the Significant Wildlife Habitat, which includes wetlands, deeryard, wildlife corridor and the globally rare alvar. So, we are left with some clear implications for the whole community. Miller, a multinational company with no ties to this community, now has over 200 years’ worth of aggregate to mine, at the expense of the neighbours’ property. Because Council did not insist that Miller put up a bond to cover any

Metro City Realty Ltd. (Renfrew) Brokerage A locally owned Independent Member Broker

disaster such as, water contamination, major water loss, blasting accidents, asphalt plant fire from a temporary asphalt plant etc., Miller could declare Smiths bankrupt and the township would have to pick up the tab. Miller may still put in a temporary asphalt plant and permanent concrete plant without even a 300 m buffer between the industry and the neighbours; Miller can destroy the rare wildlife habitat with impunity; there will be higher taxes for the whole township to pay for road reconstruction from truck damage; there will be higher taxes to make up for the loss in property value of all the homes affected. Council members responsible for this mess are Christine Blimkie, Aldene Styles and Brad McIlquahm. And again to set the record straight: MNR has refused to give Miller an aggregate permit for the expansion, with 25 pages of solid reasons for their refusal; MOE has said that they may not give Miller a Permit To Take Water for the expansion, again clearly not a ‘go ahead’ as Miller cannot quarry without it; hundreds of people have expressed their disapproval of the expansion; two independent experts have raised alarm bells with Miller studies; we also have a legal opinion plus a professional planner who have warned that this is not legal. Council knew all of this! Despite what you have read in this paper previously, FACTMB Inc. does not agree with or condone the above council decision. Norma Moore FACT-MB Inc.

To the Editor: In typical Pakenham fashion, the residents of Mississippi Mills and visitors were welcomed, fed and entertained for the Canada Eve celebrations. From the main street which was overowing with young and elderly in awe as the parade worked its way twice around the route to the local entertainment in the Stewart Community Centre and the ďŹ reworks which lit up the entire sky, one could feel ‘I love you Canada’ in the air. When the parade is required to slow down and get closer because it has taken up the full two streets in the village, one knows it has been a success. This is demonstrated by all who attend, individuals who decorate and drive oats, bring in horses, large and small tractors, antique cars, decorated bicycles, walk a calf, play music, pipe band, a very pregnant Princess Kate with her full contingent of attendants and the presence of the ‘Shriners’, who with their various units always add so very much enjoyment and pleasure to this special Canada Eve in Pakenham. Thank you to everyone for

Corrections

Fishing for duckies

In last week’s coverage of the St. Joseph’s Catholic School Grade 8 graduation the name of an award was incorrect. The Lisa Francis-Parent Memorial Award was given to Stephen Hass. Last week’s coverage of the Walter Zadow Public School Grade 8 graduation contained a couple of errors. Graduate Taylor Rivett’s first name was spelled incorrectly. And it was John Young who won the proficiency award in math and science. We apologize for any inconveniences caused by the errors.

Arnprior Rotarians have the nets out for ducks after thousands of them were poured off the bridge into the Madawaska River Canada Day. JOHN CARTER/ METROLAND

Campanale barbecue a boost for Prior Chestnuts The Prior Chestnuts Dragonboat team was one of the main beneficiaries from the proceeds of the annual Campanale barbecue in Riverwood Estates in Arnprior. The barbecue, in its seventh year, was held June 23 and attracted about 150 friends and neighbours. Company owner and barbecue host Vince Campagnale checks out the dragonboat with team members Debbie Reid, Donna Chateauvert, Cathy LeBlanc, Leslie Faraday, Julie Stashick, Debbie Sentence and Ola Armstrong. He said that the spirited team of cancer survivors has been one of his favourite charities, particularly as so many members live in the subdivision.

County to check feasibility of potential OPP site steve.newman@metroland.com.

News - Renfrew County is proceeding with a request for proposal for site engineering services at Renfrew County Place. The RFP will be done by Jp2g Consultants for $22,372 after four companies bid on the contract. The next-closest bid was $47,752. County council had budgeted $100,000 for special projects, such as this one, in 2013. The study will examine the adjoining 26-acre property to determine its suitability as the future site for the Renfrew detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police. The Renfrew and Arnprior detachments recently amalgamated into one force. “Whether the OPP building goes in there or not, it would be important to see what could and could not go in there,” said Petawawa

Mayor Bob Sweet, who chairs the county’s development and property committee. The RFP’s criteria will include a recommendation on whether this is the optimal location for the proposed OPP facility. Other criteria will also include a legal survey showing service locations and topographical information; site services information for water, storm, sewer, hydro, gas and telephone; recommendations on drainage issues; and a separate price for geotechnical requirements. Ideally, the RFP will determine the most suitable and cost-effective way to build an OPP facility on the site. The acreage is located next to Renfrew County Place on Renfrew’s O’Brien Road. The building is home to several county services, including a paramedic base station and the district health unit and a daycare facility.

Vaillancourt in elite company Steve Newman Steve.newman@metroland.com

Sports - Some of their exploits are enough to make a film director flinch. The weights lifted, pushed and pulled in strongman competitions by the likes of two-time Canada’s strongman Jean-Francois Caron of Quebec City and three-time Ontario strong man Paul Vaillancourt of Arnprior’s Ultimate Fitness are mind-boggling, and worthy of recording on film. And that’s exactly what Jean-Claude Caprara of Ottawa will be doing the next little while, as he works with a crew to develop a six-part series on Canadian strongmen for Canal D, the Quebec version of Discovery Channel. The French-language specialty channel focuses on documentary programming that covers such topics as crime, biographies, nature and science. “I just want to have fun and have a look into what it’s like to be in a strongman’s competition,� said director Caprara during a recent visit to Our Lady of Fatima Catholic School in Renfrew to capture a related aspect of Renfrew strongman Vaillancourt’s life. On Fridays, Vaillancourt leads OLF students in Grades 4 or higher through circuit training and strength-related activities. Caprara’s film crew was recently along for the ride, to capture the excitement of student teams competing in tug of war, arm wrestling and tire flips. Vaillancourt also displayed some of his

www.cherylgallant.com Pembroke, Ontario ‌ The deadline is fast approaching to give your input on Budget 2014! The Standing Committee on Finance is still accepting prebudget submissions from Canadians. I would like to thank all the individuals, businesses and organizations from Renfrew—Nipissing— Pembroke who shared their ideas with me in preparation for Budget 2013 and encourage local citizens to share your ideas with me. Since forming Government in 2006, our Conservative Government has strongly encouraged Canadians to participate in this consultation process. It is just another one of the ways that we are listening to Canadians and remaining squarely focused on your number one priority - jobs and the economy. That’s why we are working hard to create and implement a plan that will provide long term growth and prosperity to Canada’s economy, create jobs, and get back to balanced budgets. The ongoing reestablishment of 450 Tactical Helicopter Squadron at CFB Petawawa is a boost for growth Renfrew County. The 15 Chinook helicopters in 450 Tactical Helicopter Squadron will result in over 400 new military jobs at CFB Petawawa. The private sector is already opening new positions, with companies such as Raytheon, C.A.F. and Boeing locating related operations in the riding.

Sports - More than 600 golf courses across Canada will host the Take A Kid To The Course program, which offers free golf to juniors under 16 years of age when they are accompanied by a paying adult. Now in its 11th season Take A Kid To The Course is one of the largest cross-Canada free junior development programs. Local courses involved in the program are Madawaska, Mountain Creek and Arnprior. Since 2003 this program has introduced over 270,000 kids to the game. Developed by the National Golf Course Owners Association Canada and supported by the PGA of Canada, this program encourages families and more specifically juniors to take up the game of their life. “Golf provides kids with valuable life skills, such as perseverance, patience, and respect that will serve them well in whatever they choose to pursue going forward in life” states Jeff Calderwood, CEO of the National Golf Course Owners Association Canada. “They will enjoy quality time with family and friends and experience an activity that takes them away from the computer and into the great outdoors.” The National Golf Course Owners Association Canada is a not-forprofit trade association representing over thirteen hundred members across Canada.

Shoveller one of two recruits added to Queen’s University basketball program Sports - Arnprior District High School graduate Mike Shoveller has been recruited to the Queen’s University men’s basketball program. Queen’s announced it will bring in two talented newcomers for the 2013-14 season, Shoveller and Mike Mullins of Burlington, Ont.). These players will look to help the program continue its progress in the OUA and CIS ranks. “While last year we needed to overhaul the roster, this year our approach was much different. We wanted to make sure we identified some areas we need to improve in and narrow our recruiting focus. Two of our needs were without question to find a quality player with more height than we currently have and to become better defensively. Both Mikes are the kind of guys we want to build with – no egos or attitude, just good team guys. They will take time to adjust to the CIS level but have a chance to become very good players in our league.” commented Gaels head coach Stephan Barrie on the newest Gaels. “It is also critical for us to develop our returning players. We have so many young guys who are nowhere near their potential, so we have to invest a tremendous amount of time

into them.” Shoveller, who is 6’11”, will study in the arts and science program. He is a four-time MVP for the Arnprior Redmen and last season led the school to its first OFSAA appearance in 40 years. Shoveller was a member of U15 gold medal provincial team. and is an honour student and valedictorian of his graduating class. His father Bruce is a Queen’s graduate and played for the Gaels from 1982-83 to 1983-84 and was the team MVP in his final season. “I chose Queen’s because it was the best fit for me in every aspect: school, basketball, location and environment. The team culture is very positive and they are heading in the right direction. I’m looking forward to getting to work on the court, contributing in any way I can,” said Shoveller. The Gaels begin their regular season on Friday November 1 when they play host to the Lakehead Thunderwolves at 8 p.m. at the ARC. Queen’s will also be hosting their annual Tindall Tournament in the pre-seaons which will feature teams from Canada West, RSEQ, and the OUA conference coming to Kingston. The Gaels will host Ryerson, Manitoba and Bishop’s in the tournament Oct. 4 to 6.

Bridget’s Army is on the march Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - When six-year-old Bridget Rose Zavitske smiles, she lights up the room. It’s a contagious grin, belying her sweetness and loving nature to those around her. She loves to dance, to draw, to play hockey and soccer. She loves animals of all types, her friends and the colour red. She just graduated Senior Kindergarten at Stonecrest Elementary where her favorite subject is gym. She also has a Stage IV Wilm’s tumor. This cancer typically occurs in young children and affects the kidneys and has cost Bridget her left kidney. It has also spread to her lungs and lymph nodes. The diagnosis was quick. On June 17, the family rushed down to CHEO’s ER and three days and a whirlwind of tests later, Bridget was on the operating table. Two weeks after that, she started chemotherapy and radiation. “She has been pretty sick from that,� said her mother Christy McNeely Zavitske. “We are hoping the sickness doesn’t last. We hear the first few weeks of chemo are the worst.� Bridget doesn’t let her illness define her.

PHOTO COURTESY OF CHRISTY MCNEELY ZAVITSKE

Six-year-old Bridget Rose Zavitske receives her cancer treatment at CHEO in Ottawa. Despite losing a kidney, she remains in high spirits and enjoys the hospitals playroom, toys and crayons. “A week from her surgery date she was at her soccer game cheering on her team,� said McNeely Zavitske. “I was stressing out making sure she sat still.� Her strength and tenacity has allowed her to return to her home in Dunrobin much sooner than doctors anticipated. This is to everybody’s relief.

Her siblings, Maddy, 16, Stella, 7 and Miller 2.5, were extremely concerned and were acutely anxious to see the youngest daughter home. They were overjoyed to have her home. The family is a close one. “We come from very close families,� said McNeely Zavitske. “My family is from Carleton Place and

Dave’s (Bridget’s father) is from Renfrew.� This closeness has been demonstrated by their community’s unwavering support. Nicknamed Bridget’s Army, friends, family, random strangers and local businesses have come out of the woodwork to give their support. “I honestly can’t believe the support we have received from family, friends and total strangers,� said Bridget’s mother. They’ve organized a food drive, school and community groups have sent the family monetary gifts as well as presents for Bridget. Family friend Jennifer Facchin has created a team of runners, named Bridget’s Brigades, who will be running 100KM from Ottawa to Montebello for the Relay to End Kids Cancer on Oct. 5. Her goal is to raise $500 for national pediatric oncology research initiatives at CHEO. More initiatives are coming. “I have a group of friends who have started a group called Bridget’s Worker Bees,� said McNeely Zavitske. “They have some great ideas, an evening gala, a change and bottle drive, etc.� “I’m hoping they can also donate money to local cancer organizations as I feel we have been so blessed with the amount of support we have been receiving,� she added. “Everyone is really working hard out there.�

While Bridget was in the hospital she received hundreds and hundreds of emails and photos. Seeing all these kind words and pictures of friends kept her spirits up during the worst of it. “The gifts, and cards and flowers, from her school friends, dance school friends, family, old friends of ours, and complete strangers, really made her so happy,� said her mother. Bridget is still very much a little girl and it can be difficult to manage Bridget’s youthful exuberance and medical caution. “I give her space. I am also strong for her and don’t let her take advantage of being sick,� said McNeely Zavitske. “As long as she is happy, I stay happy.� There is a tough journey ahead for Bridget and her family, but knowing she has her own army helps tremendously. “We have already received so much, much more than I would have ever imagined,� said McNeely Zavitske. “I would just like everyone to keep thinking positive thoughts for Bridget. They have definitely worked for her so far.� To follow Bridget’s progress or to help out, please visit www.gofundme.com/bridgetrose.

Myer’s Volkswagen Shows West is Best

501-2500 Palladium Dr. Kanata As Volkswagen’s global popularity continues to grow, it’s causing increased traffic and sales at all Canadian dealerships. Myer’s Volkswagen in Ottawa’s West has chosen to take a decidedly customer-centered approach in resolving the growth issues caused by this increased attention when they open their doors to a new expanded facility at 501-2500 Palladium Drive in the Palladium Auto Park this Saturday, June 22nd. Since taking over the busy Bells Corners retail outlet (formerly known as Citiwest VW) in 2010, the Myers Automotive Group has applied their unique philosophy of ‘customer-first’ thinking in every aspect of the VW store. The results are amazing. Sales volumes rose by 70% and the customer satisfaction rates experienced similar dramatic increases.

VW owners have always been a loyal group, sticking with their brand when others around them may have thought their choices were quirky and eccentric. But now it seems the whole automotive consumer world is in love with VW’s brand of quirkiness. Car buyers have found that underneath the skin, VW is all about bringing the latest available technology to serve in terms of performance, efficiency, safety, and comfort. And while auto critics may have, in the past, been excused for their humorous views on VW’s styling (think Beetle and Microbus), not even the harshest critic has an unkind word on the styling of today’s Volkswagens. Ottawa’s Myers Group of retail facilities believes that loyal customers deserve top treatment and that’s what’s in store for them at the new Myers Volkswagen. Located in the heart of Ottawa’s auto retail sector; the Palladium Autopark with its own 417 interchange, Myers VW will welcome shoppers into a bright ten-car showroom allowing them to learn all about Volkswagen’s advantages in a hands-on manner surrounded by the vehicles they’re interested in. Service customers will be treated to a climate

controlled drive-in reception centre leading to a 16 bay technology department designed to take care of every maintenance and repair need. While parking on the old location was definitely a challenge, the new facility will have plenty of accessible spaces making a quick stop or an extended visit a breeze. Being located right off Highway 417, means easy connections to any area in the Ottawa/Gatineau region, perfect for service and sales customers alike. What won’t change at Myers Volkswagen is the friendly open style of service that their customers have come to enjoy and benefit from. The entire staff is making the move west along with vehicles, parts, equipment and furniture. General Manager Trevor King credits a very dedicated team with keeping customers satisfied and everything running smoothly even in the midst of this major move. He witnesses on a daily basis their efforts in making sure every client gets the most out of their experience, whether it’s a new or pre-owned vehicle purchase, or a quick oil change, or a major repair. And of course Myers VW customers love having access to the longest service hours in the city, and that definitely won’t change. The service and parts departments are open from 6 am to 8 pm Monday through Thursday, 6 am to 6 pm on Fridays and 6 am to 5 pm on Saturdays. The sales showroom is open from9 am to 9 pm Monday through Thursday, 9 am to 6 pm on Fridays and 9 am to 5 pm on Saturdays. Volkswagen’s grand vision is to become the world’s largest automaker by 2018 and they are well on their way. They just have to look at their successful retailers for inspiration and experience. Myers Volkswagen has been number one in the greater Ottawa region since they opened in 2010. Call them at 613 592 8484 for sales or 613 596 8689 for service or log onto www.myersvw.com to find out how you can be number one on your roads in a Myers Volkswagen. R0012200905

Hospital researcher to volunteer at Ride the Rideau By Tracey Tong He may be one of Canada’s top neuromuscular researchers, as well as a Senior Scientist and Deputy Scientific Director at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, but Dr. Rashmi Kothary is still not too busy to help a good cause.

“We like to do volunteer work in the community,” said Kothary. “We support a number of causes, but Ride the Rideau, which contributes funds to research at The Ottawa Hospital, is close to our hearts. We’ll be at the finish line, where we will show support to the riders, and to recognize them for their hard work.”

Kothary, who is also a Professor in the Departments of Medicine and Cellular and Molecular Medicine at the University of Ottawa, said cancer impacts many people, including his own family and friends.

The 2013 grads prepare themselves for their big moment in the small gym at the school, hooting, hollering and adjusting itchy collars. The excitement is palpable as principal Neil Farmer and teacher Nicole White pose with Valedictorian Michael Shoveller up on stage.

News - The Arnprior and District High School’s gym was full to the brim as parents, grandparents and friends waited anxiously for the graduating class of 2013 to cross the stage. The ceremony held on June 27, began at 4 p.m., but students were ready long before names were called. After four years, the Grade 12 students nearly vibrated as they waited to receive their diploma. “For the past four years we have shared experiences and memories that will last us a lifetime,” said Valedictorian Michael Shoveller at the podium. “High school is about more than the lessons learned in the classroom. It is about the lessons and knowledge gained through life’s challenges. By sitting here today prepared to graduate, we all have passed another one of life’s challenges.” It has been an exciting time for students, parents and teachers. Together they’ve watched and participated in sports, plays and musical displays. They’ve shared friendship and conflict. They’ve shared the highest peaks and the lowest lows. Some moments were lower than others. “No senior class ever thinks of losing a classmate at such a young age,” said Shoveller. “Lisa Roesler was not just a classmate, she was a friend, and her laugh and smile live on through many of us. She has been with us all year in spirit, she is here tonight and she will continue to be with us as we move forward. Her passing has brought each member of the class of 2013 closer than we could ever imagine. And she taught us all to value each and every day of our lives.” Ultimately the Arnprior graduating class will take the first steps into real life. Whether it is going into the job market, taking a year off to travel, returning for extra classes or going to university or college, they are taking with them everything they learned and experienced.

“Arnprior District High School has been so much more than a school to us,” said Shoveller. “It has prepared us to face our future endeavors as well as how to deal with success and failures. It has given us the opportunity to build friendships that will last us a lifetime.” AWARDS

Most of the students did not spend the year with apathy, but rather applied themselves. They’ve demonstrated their talent, their perseverance, their smarts, their art, their sport, and their music skills and brought home awards. Amy Furgoch won the Governor General’s Academic Medal and Hannah Martin won the Lieutenant Governor’s Community Volunteer Award. Emma Baird, Jessica Baron, Andrea Bentz, Rachel Borshevsky, Mackenzie Bourgoin, Melissa Branje, Sarah Brooks, Jennifer Buffam, Kate Burman, Samantha Coreau, Laura Craig, Marissa Dean, Amy Furgoch, Mikki Jo Gardiner, Nicholas Giamblanco, Kendra Graham, Drewanne Gravelle, Tessa Hartwick, Ashley Holliday, Allison Hudson, Rebecca Labrecque, Cassidy Marshall, Hannah Martin, Alexander McLachlan, Brett Miller, Caroline Popiel, Eric Post, Shannon Power, Natalie Quathamer, Bethany Rampton, Tanner Robitaille, Connor Schrive and Michael Shoveller took home the Renfrew County District School Board Medallions. The Business Medallion went to Cameron Martin and the PATRICIA LEBOEUF/METROLAND Technical Medallion was award to Stephanie Hicks. The graduation ceremony was held on June 27 inside the Arnprior and District High School. After the procession, a few

RCDSB Booster Program enters 32nd year SUBMITTED SUE BRUEMMER

The Arnprior adult education graduating class included in back from left Cassandra Lanthier, Nicholas Faubert, Kimberley Craig, Cassandra Dick, Justin Eitzen, Kimberly Tennant, Alexis Ross-Bouchard and Albert Nicholls; and in front Richard Horscroft, Ashley Veal, Percy Tripp, Joseph Taillefer and Josee Labelle.

Adult education graduates praised for their resilience News - The Arnprior Continuing and Community Education Centre held its graduation ceremonies the evening of June 25. Close to 30 students graduated this year from the different programs the centre offers. Students complete their diplomas through the Adult High School program, P.A.L (Program for Alternative Learning) or through correspondence. The evening started with the graduates entering the gymnasium accompanied by Melissa Friske playing the bagpipes. Loran Young, the principal of Continuing Education, talked to the graduates about what it took for them to succeed. He said it was all about attitude, and that they had the right attitude to succeed. He thanked the program employees for all

of their hard work and dedication to the students. Dennis Jenkins, superintendent for the Renfrew County District School Board, brought greetings from the board. He was pleased that he had the opportunity to share in the celebration of this important milestone in the graduates’ life. A number of individual awards were handed out during the ceremony. The recipients were Joseph Taillefer – Principal’s Award; Ravyn Hahn – Social Science Award; Kimberly Craig - English Award; Alexis RossBouchard - Math Award; Cassandra Lanthier - Attendance Award; Ashley Veal - Correspondence Award; Cassandra Dick - Co-op Award; and Kimberly Tennant - Valedic-

torian Award. The valedictorian address was given by Tennant. She congratulated her fellow graduates saying: “It is difficult for me to reminisce about each classmate because we were all very independent learners and workers. We were all different ages, we lived different lives, but I can honestly say we are all resilient, brave, hard working individuals. It takes a lot of grit to return to high school.” For those in attendance, it was very proud moment for them, as they walked up on stage to receive individual awards and their high school diplomas. Afterwards, family members and friends took time to congratulate the students and enjoy some refreshments.

News - Grade 1 and 2 students in Renfrew County can get a boost in their literacy and numeracy skills thanks to the July Booster Program hosted at several Renfrew County District School Board (RCDSB) schools each year. For the past 32 years, hundreds of children have improved their reading, writing and math skills. This summer, 213 , 197 Grade 1 and 2 students from Renfrew County graduated from the free weekday morning program. A dynamic team of inno-

vative and creative RCDSB teachers deliver the literacy and numeracy program in a camp-like atmosphere. They are all committed to the growth and development of children and implement the latest, research-based, best practices in teaching and learning. They all bring experience and knowledge of strategies that promote skill development in language and mathematics in the early years. Students enjoy engaging,

motivational and purposeful activities. Booster camps are being hosted at the following RCDSB schools in 2013 to give access to students across the county including A.J. Charbonneau Public School in Arnprior. “Students are very excited to come back each day. Their smiles and enthusiasm say it all. We are delighted with the success of the students and the program,” says Booster Program Principal Tracey Stevens.

Arnprior student earns chaplaincy award Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Eighty-eight high school diplomas were handed out during the St. Joseph’s Catholic High School graduation ceremony that focused on faith, perseverance, accomplishment and balance in one’s life. One of the major award winners was Arnprior’s Rosemary Waclawik, receiving the Chaplaincy Award for

showing servant-leadership in the pastoral works of the school and her parish community. Waclawik, who will start an arts degree at Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Academy in Barry’s Bay this fall, paid tribute to chaplain Jason Dedo and other staff members for helping to make the year so meaningful. “I’m just glad to be part of such a great school that has such a Catholic spirit,” she said.

An audience of about 650 people packed the gymnasium for the nearly two-hour ceremony that saluted the high school’s 17 Ontario scholars, for obtaining an average of at least 80 per cent in their top six Grade 12 courses, in addition to handing out more than 70 awards, including numerous scholarships and bursaries. Jennifer Hall received the Governor General’s Medal for achieving the highest overall average in all of

her Grade 11 and 12 courses. “It’s one of the highest averages I’ve ever seen,” said principal Brennan Trainor of her 96.3 average. Another prestigious award was the Diocese of Pembroke Bursary, which went to Kaitlyn Kargus, “This is a great honour because this is given by the students to a student,” said principal Trainor of the student deemed to be the finest in the current graduating class.

Arts – Art is the main focus of the Renfrew Art in the Park July 13 and 14 at Haramis Park, but it’s also so much more. There is also theatre, music, a children’s kids’ zone, food vendors and more. Sunday, July 14 will feature two performances of the Stone Fence Theatre production Bonnechere River: Future Tense, sponsored by the Bonnechere River Watershed Project (BRWP). The play is described by the organizers as “a light-hearted reminder of our past to better understand our present, as a means to reflect on how our choices could affect the future of the Bonnechere Valley for generations to come.” The production includes three acts of about 15 minutes each, followed by a 15-minute question-and-answer period led by BRWP spokesfrog puppet Bonnie Chere, with Trish Leeper of DoubleTake Productions. The performances will be at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. outdoors under a canopy. The shows are sponsored by Renfrew Power Generation, Renfrew Hydro and Lockwood Building Centre. Prizes will be drawn for one plein aire painting excursion at

an AY Jackson trail site in the Bonnechere River watershed; two Bonnechere Caves admissions ($32 value); two tickets for the historic O’Brien Theatre in Renfrew ($18 value); lunch for two at the Wilno tavern ($25 value) and lunch for two at the Ash Grove in Barry’s Bay ($25 value). A kids’ zone will offer children’s activities and storytelling sessions Saturday at noon, 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. with Tracey Cobus; and noon and 2 p.m. with Natalie Karavadas. General Store Publishing has donated 13 books for storytelling as door prizes. CREPES FOR SALE

Food and drink will also be available at the festival, including The Belgian Creperie. The booth was inspired by artist Kevin Dodds’ mother who has been making this recipe for years. “It’s been a dream of mine to do this,” says Dodds. “We will have various flavours of crepes made from my mother’s recipe from Belgium. They will have various toppings, and various fruits – strawberry, raspberry, blueberry and bananas,” Dodds explains.

“You can choose an all-mixed berry crepe, a peanut butterbanana crepe, etc.,” he said of the various combinations. “Some will have a sour cream sugar filling, or homemade whipping cream centre, depending on the crepe,” he says. ENTERTAINMENT

Gun registry concerns raised with minister News - Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird visited the riding recently, but he only talked to the party faithful. Baird was the guest speaker at a fundraiser organized by the RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke Conservative riding association at the Whitetail Golf Club near Eganville. The session was strictly a meet-and-greet reception with supporters with no media allowed. “Minister Baird has a good reputation as a hard working minister in our government,� said Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant in a news release after the event. “In addition to his responsibilities as Canada’s Foreign Minister, he is also the regional Minister for Eastern Ontario, which

means he is looking out for the interests of the Upper Ottawa Valley,â€? she added. “A hot topic of discussion among Valley hunters and sport shooting enthusiasts was the UN Arms Trade Treaty. Law-abiding gun owners are concerned the OfďŹ cial Opposition will use the UN treaty as a back-door way to bring back the hated, billion dollar wasted, long-gun registry,â€? said Gallant. “The Quebec-based opposition parties have already promised to bring back the registry should they ever get the chance. Unlike their hidden agenda to bring in a carbon tax on Canadians, they have clearly stated the registry is a big priority for them. “We believe that any treaty regarding the sale of munitions, which helps move the international

community closer to world-leading standards, is a good thing,� Gallant said. In defending the decision not to sign immediately, Baird suggested the government sees a potential link between signing on to the treaty and the now-abolished long gun registry, said Gallant. “We participated actively in these discussions. Unlike the old government that refused to listen to Canadians before imposing Bill C-68, Conservatives believe we have an obligation to listen before we act, and that is why we will be consulting with Canadians before the government takes any decision,� Gallant quoted Baird as saying. “As a veteran Member of the Conservative Caucus in Ottawa, Cheryl Gal-

lant has a solid reputation of standing up for her constituents,â€? Baird told the Valley Tories. “I value her regular contributions at caucus and her committee work at National Defence and Industry. As Chair of the Canadian NATO Parliamentary Association and a member of the International NATO Parliamentary Executive, she represents Canada’s international military commitments effectively. Her concern is always ďŹ rst and foremost our soldiers and their families before any decision is made to place soldiers in harm’s way. “It is always a pleasure to work with Cheryl.

olds,â€? Hubley said. “Ever since he’s been elected there’s been talk of him resigning. As far as I know, Gordon has every intention of running again in 2015.â€? Hubley is well-connected in Conservative party circles. As a longtime, high-proďŹ le resident of the riding, he would be the logical successor as party candidate in the next election. While Hubley wouldn’t outright deny the possibility of running federally, he said the timing isn’t great and he intends to run again municipally. The municipal election is in 2014; the federal in 2015. “I’m not sure that day is close,â€? Hubley said, adding. “I’ll listen to what the residents tell me. I’m there to serve them.â€?

A second reason O’Connor may ďŹ nd himself out cabinet has to do with party control. Known as the most secretive and rigorously-controlled government in recent history, backbencher discipline is doled out by the party whip. O’Connor is believed to have overstepped his bounds on more than one occasion. For Harper to quell a party revolt, he may have to cut O’Connor loose. Karen McCrimmon is the Liberal candidate in the next local election. The recent Liberal leadership candidate has heard nothing of O’Connor’s situation and was surprised to hear Hubley’s name associated with the party. She often says she won’t speak negatively about opponents, but doesn’t profess to be the sitting MP’s fan. “He’s done the job to the best of his abilities, and done what he’s thought is right,â€? she said. “I don’t agree with him. But he has always worked hard. It’s a tough job being the whip.â€? She wouldn’t say the Conservative party has curtailed free speech among members. But as for openness and transparency when it comes

to spending, she said the party could come much closer to the promise it made while in opposition. As far as meeting Hubley in an election, McCrimmon indicated that her skills at the national and international level would make up for his advantages at the constituency. And that her party’s consensus-building approach is better than the Conservatives’ divide and conquer. O’Connor is on record defending Harper’s position on the WrightDuffy scandal. He believed a few weeks ago that the prime minister didn’t know anything about the $90,000 cheque to Senator Mike Duffy. Many observers say when chief of staff Nigel Wright and a few others in the prime minister’s ofďŹ ce discussed handing the money over as was revealed days ago by RCMP - it is unlikely Harper wouldn’t have known. If O’Connor does resign, a third reason may have to do with avoiding the mounting scandals the party ďŹ nds itself embroiled in. O’Connor was given an opportunity to respond without a deadline, but declined.

Going hungry was always a fear for young Mary Lifestyle - The sauerkraut barrel was just about empty in the summer kitchen. It has served us well since the early fall when the whole family spent many evenings shredding cabbage to fill it to the brim. The salt pork barrel was empty too, and had been thoroughly washed and set out on the back stoop to sun-dry. The smallest of the three barrels had long since given up the last pickled herring. Even the vegetables in the root cellar were getting scarce. Now, what were we to do, I wondered? Would we starve, just like the starving Armenians Mother talked about all the time? It would be many weeks before we would have carrots and potatoes from the garden. Now I had something else to worry about. Back then, it seemed, I could find many issues to send me into a state of anxiousness. Mother said I was born with furrows in my brow, whatever that meant. And worrying if

we had enough food to keep us alive was constantly on my mind this time of year. I took my concerns to my sister Audrey. She always seemed to have an answer for everything. At first she laughed out loud when I asked her if we were about to starve since all the barrels that once held our daily sustenance were empty. Then she saw that I was sincerely worried and she took me to the old swing in the grape arbour to give me a long talk on how I was worried for nothing. At that very moment, she pointed out, wasn’t our bake table full of freshly baked bread? Weren’t there enough loaves there to last us most of the week when Mother would again bake up another batch? So there would always be sandwiches and always there would be bread pudding for dessert. And in the smoke house, wasn’t there slabs of backbacon and roasts of pork, and sausage links, enough to feed

Mary Cook’s Memories BY MARY COOK

half of Renfrew County? “Stop worrying, Mary,” she said. “We won’t starve.” And of course, my wiser sister Audrey was quite right. Soon there were sprigs of new lettuce showing in the garden. Enough to take to the dinner table and for lettuce sandwiches which I loved with a passion. Fresh lettuce, with a spattering of sugar and vinegar between two slices of buttered freshly baked bread. Now, that was a treat! One which I dearly loved. And then Audrey took me down into the dugout under the house. I had told her the last time I had gone down with the dish pan to bring up vegetables for supper, I had to

dig away in the sand before I found a carrot. Audrey pointed to the shelves down there that for generations held preserves and pickles. And there on those shelves were enough glass jars, still full of beans in brine, onions hanging in mesh bags, and sealer after sealer of preserved raspberries, crab apples and wild blueberries. “Now do you think we are starving?” Audrey asked. And or course, my much older, and much wiser sister was right. Just because the barrels in the kitchen were empty, there was still food aplenty to last us until the garden was ready. I could put my worries aside. And I recalled what my father always said

when he was discussing the issues of the day: “It’s a poor farmer indeed, who can’t keep food on the table to feed his family.” Although not my favourite, we had as much milk to drink as we wanted. There was always a big jug of fresh milk in the ice box, and newly churned butter in glass bowls. Our hen house full of hens provided us with enough eggs for our own use, and with lots left over for Mother to peddle in Renfrew every Saturday morning. We could expect a chicken dinner every Sunday. Mother, long before we would set out for church, would have stuffed at least two fat birds and put them in the Findlay Oval oven. If there weren’t enough vegetables in the sand bin to tuck around the chickens, we made do with bowls of pickled beans or canned tomatoes from the cellar. Although Father never considered it a meal, Mother had what we all called her “everything goes into it” pot

of soup simmering just about constantly on the back of the stove. Hulls of vegetables, anything left over from the dinner table, scraps of meat, leftover gravy… whatever she could find, went into the soup-pot. Father, most nights, when he wasn’t too tired from dawn to dusk working in the fields, would sit down just before he fell into bed, and with a couple pieces of home made bread sponging up the soup, ate heartily of what he called “a wee bite before turning in.” No, on thinking about it, I worried for nothing. We wouldn’t starve on the farm just because the barrels were empty. Food was all around us, and there was always Briscoe’s General Store, where we could stop for maple cookies, a couple slices of bologna, and the basics like flour, tea and sugar. All we had to do was ask for it, and tell Mr. Briscoe, “just put it on our bill, please.”

Message from Queen’s Park

July 2013

Monthly Column by

John YAKABUSKI MPP

www.johnyakabuski.com Last Wednesday, July 3rd Kathleen Wynne called for by-elections in five Ontario ridings to be held on August 1st: Ottawa South, Windsor-Tecumseh, London West, Etobicoke-Lakeshore and Scarborough-Guildwood.

PATRICIA LEBOEUF/METROLAND

Various youth organizations volunteer their time during the Concert in the Park series. The Arnprior Wrestling Club come down to the first concert in the park concert to sell barbecue meats and other treats. Laura Stellato and Kyle Findlay use one grill while wrestling Coach Keven Mayhew mans the other. Above: Wendy Mayhew and her 13-year-old son Liam serve up popcorn.

Concert fun in the park in Fitzroy

By calling these by-elections in the summer, Wynne has revealed her true colours and demonstrated her strategy. She is manipulating the dates to give the Liberals whatever advantage she can in these elections. I must point out that the Liberals currently hold every one of these ridings and have in place a successful electionready machine from the 2011 general election. Wynne’s hope is that the volunteer base for us the PCs, and the NDP is limited because of the summer. What is more disturbing is the fact that her call is an affront to the democratic process. The very basis of our system is that the greatest number of voters possible elects their representatives. Ontario is coming off a general election in 2011 in which the voter turnout was the lowest in history. I think it’s fair to ask, what will the voter turnout be in electing five new MPPs? It’s clear she wants as few people as possible voting. She doesn’t want those who are angered by the multiple Liberal scandals to be casting their ballots. The most recent being the relocation of the gas plants and the email destruction scandal.

In July, concerts invades the Fitzroy Provincial Park with the Fabulous Flashbax playing on July 4, followed by the Local Traffic on July 11, the Stephen Thomas Band on July 18 and Ambush and Jordan McIntosh, playing on July 25. The Fabulous Flashbax attract more than 100 people.

Speaking of the gas plant and email destruction scandal, as a member of the committee delving into this mess I had the opportunity to question former Premier Dalton McGuinty on Tuesday June 25th. I questioned him on his role, and what he knew about the destruction of emails in his office and in the offices of other senior Liberals. I was never as disappointed in his performance as I was that day. McGuinty displayed an arrogance and an “I am above the law” attitude that was not befitting a former Premier.

R0012204444

THIS WEEK’S FEATURE

The Fabulous Flashbax take the stage on July 4, singing a medley of favourites oldies. Grace Wilson, 5, and her new found friend Gwen Smith, 7, are entranced.

That’s right, on the eve of the long weekend. I cannot recall at any time when an Ontario by-election has been held in the height of summer. Wynne had until August 16th to call the by-elections which would mean that they could not have been held before September 12th. This would have taken them out of the summer vacation period.

FRIDAY, JULY 12TH TO THURSDAY, JULY 18TH 2013

245 DANIEL ST., ARNPRIOR

Incidentally, there is a by-election in McGuinty’s riding because he broke one last promise, which was to fulfill his role as MPP, even after he stepped down as Premier. He couldn’t even keep that one. You should know that the Liberals nominated successor in the riding of Ottawa South is none other than his long-time executive assistant John Fraser. When the Liberal email scandal became public it was obvious that the Justice committee looking into the gas plant cancellations had more work to do. As a result, PC members of the committee put forward a motion for the committee to keep sitting through the month of July. The Liberals voted against that motion, and the NDP abstained. Consequently the motion failed. On our witness list for the month of July would have been the aforementioned John Fraser, who was McGuinty’s main man and Mr. Fixit in Ottawa. The committee will be sitting again in August, but by that time the by elections will be over. The by-election in Ottawa South will of course be of greatest interest to folks living here in Renfrew County because of its close proximity. I have been called upon by PC Leader Tim Hudak to assist in any way I can in that by-election. Let’s hope that when the votes are counted that Kathleen Wynne is delivered a very strong message that the people of Ontario are tired of her scandal-plagued party. 0711.R0032067653

Heat prostration and vehicles a real pet concern in summer Lifestyle - Heat prostration can often occur on moderately warm days, but the problem is always worst during late July and August. Cooler morning temperatures may prompt pet owners to take their animals with them on that morning trip to the grocery store and while they are inside, the thermometer is rapidly rising. Dogs and cats respond to heat differently than humans do. The time it takes to run just a few errands can mean the difference between life and death for the trapped animal. The most frustrating sight that one animal lover can witness is a dog or cat literally boiling to death while the owner is off in some store. Although the windows are opened slightly and the vehicle is parked in the shade the interior of a vehicle on a summer’s day can reach well over 100 degrees

IAN STUPP Pet Talk Fahrenheit. For those of you who must travel with a pet in the spring and summer please use some common sense. On a warm, sunny day windows collect light, trapping heat inside the vehicle, and pushing the temperature inside to dangerous levels. On an 85-degree day, for example, the temperature inside a car with the windows opened slightly can reach 102 degrees within 10 minutes. After 30 minutes, the temperature will reach

120 degrees. For most pets, temperatures above 100 degrees can quickly be fatal. The early signs of trouble are panting, and a warm, dry skin. Within minutes, the animal may have a blue tongue and gums, a staring expression and a high temperature. Vomiting sometimes occurs, followed by collapse and, soon after, death. All of this may happen within 10 minutes. Pets, more so than humans, are susceptible to overheating. While people can roll down windows, turn on the air conditioner or exit the vehicle when they become too hot, pets cannot. Pets are much less efficient at cooling themselves than people are. Dogs are designed to conserve heat, their sweat glands, which exist on their nose and the pads of their feet, are inadequate for cooling during

hot days. Panting and drinking water helps cool them, but if they only have overheated air to breathe, dogs can suffer brain and organ damage after just 15 minutes. Short-nosed breeds, like pugs and bulldogs, young pets, seniors or pets with weight, respiratory, cardiovascular or other health problems are especially susceptible to heat-related stress. TRAVELING WITH YOUR PET

Always have two bowls handy one for water and one for food and don’t forget to bring along paper towels and plastic bags for scooping. If your pet takes medication take extra, you never know when your pet might spit one up or you drop one. Depending on the urgency of the medication or on length of your trip you may con-

sider having your Veterinarian fill a prescription for you to take with just as a precaution. Make sure that all their vaccinations are up to date before you leave and don’t forget their vaccination certificates, you don’t want to be turned away at the border because you forgot the required vaccinations and there documentation. Make sure that a correct nametag including your pet’s name and home address is attached to his or hers collar and make sure that they have a microchip.

Fifty animals removed from man’s care in Upper Ottawa Valley News – An Upper Ottawa Valley man has pleaded guilty under the Ontario SPCA Act to causing distress to 50 animals. Corey Thomson of the Eganville area has been prohibited

from owning, living with or having care of animals for 20 years. Ontario SPCA agents and inspectors have been permitted to inspect Thomson’s residence at any time. In late 2012, Ontario SPCA inves-

tigators received a complaint regarding several animals in distress on a property near Eganville, On Dec. 1, with the assistance of the Ontario Provincial Police and a local veterinarian, the On-

tario SPCA executed a search warrant at the property and subsequently removed 50 animals from Thomson’s care. Thy included two donkeys, 23 ducks, 12 rabbits, nine dogs and one ferret.

Standards of care were not being met for the animals, and

many were suffering from health concerns, some of which were

severe, reports the SPCA. To report cruelty

call 1-888-668-7722 or email a concern to cruelty@ospca.on.ca.

News – If you believe that Fitzroy Harbour isn’t a happening place, come pay a visit to the annual Harbour Days and be proven sorely wrong. Held this year from July 11 to 13, the decades-long tradition has grown from a simple three-pitch tournament to a veritable fun fair. “It’s an event where we try to offer something to everybody in the community,� said co-organizer Kellie Shrimpton. “Everything for every age group from kids to seniors and everybody in between.� The addition of a new picnic shelter near the Fitzroy Harbour Community Centre will allow for some shade while attendees enjoy the many activities such as the family night bingo on Thursday. “It’s extra special this year because we can do the bingo rain or shine,� said Shrimpton. “It’s really

fun. We have prizes and treats. Kids and seniors come out to play that.� The activity roster grows every year. The festival is setting up its first ever bike rodeo and safety workshop, hosted by Safer Roads Ottawa. Using the rink as an arena, kids will learn safe riding methods, decorate their bicycles, enjoy several skill testing activities and receive a few extra treats. The rodeo beings at 6:15 p.m. on July 12, and concludes with a bike parade. “The Ottawa Safety Council believes that by teaching children early on (through their Cycle Safe Bike Rodeos) the A-B-C’s of safe riding, the 2-V-1 approach to helmet wearing, the importance of being visible and using the proper turn signals,� said Manager of Public Safety Education and Human Resources Kathleen Cameron in an email. “Parents will feel more confident their children are safe when out cycling.� Another fun activity that is new this year is the air conditioned video game trailer. For a small fee, people of all ages will be able to stay cool and give their thumbs a workout in front of the big screen. It’s also an opportunity to just get outside, enjoy the sunshine and make some friends. “Fitzroy is a very dynamic community and it’s nice to give everybody the chance to come out,� said Shrimpton. “It gives them something to do, see each other and socialize outside of organize sports.�

On July 11, a softball skill clinic for kids will be held at 6 p.m., allowing the kiddies to refine their ball throwing. It will be followed by several fastball games. Simultaneously, the family outdoor bingo and the Texas Hold’Em game will be held at 7 p.m. The following day, the threepitch tournament begins at 6 p.m. while the Kids’ Bike Rodeo is held at 6:15 p.m. at the rink. A Black Light Dance, specially tailored for youth, will follow at 7:30 p.m. The new picnic shelter will be official dedicated at 8:30 p.m., accompanied by the lyrical sounds of “3’s a Crowd.� On July 13, the real fun begins with an all day kids’ fair, comprised of a fun run, ball hockey, the Cowguys’ comedy, juggling and circus stunts, kids’ rides, splash machine and much more. The three-pitch tournament also continues starting at 8 a.m. The silent auction, the video game arcade, live music, social tent and a tasty barbecue is just fraction of the overall all day entertainment. Activities times and dates may fluctuate according to weather and other circumstances.

Canadians may not be able to help someone suffering from cardiac arrest: poll

News - According to recent polling by the Canadian Red Cross, the majority of Canadians say they would recognize the signs if someone were experiencing a cardiac emergency, but fewer than half say they would be able to do something to help. November is CPR month, an annual campaign to promote the importance of CPR as a lifesaving skill. The Canadian Red Cross urges Canadians to take a course,

and know what to do in an emergency. “In half a day you can learn the skills necessary to save a life,” says Don Marentette, national manager of first aid programs with the Canadian Red Cross. “Only 15 per cent of Canadians say they are confident they can help someone suffering from a cardiac emergency, and that’s just not enough. Approximately one in 10 deaths in Canada directly results

from a heart attack. In large urban centres, the average ambulance response time is more than eight minutes, but permanent brain damage is likely to occur within four to six minutes after a person stops breathing. “Knowing what to do in those critical minutes can save a life,” adds Marentette. “CPR, when used with an automated external defibrillator, and started immediately after cardiac arrest, can double a person’s chance of

surviving a heart attack.” A Red Cross CPR course teaches important life-saving skills, including how to recognize signs of breathing and circulation emergencies, how to call for help, perform CPR, and how to use an AED. The Red Cross is the only national training agency to include AED training as a mandatory component. For more information, visit www.redcross.ca/firstaid.

Genetic wheat appearance should concern farmers: NFU News - This spring’s discovery of Genetically Engineered (GE) winter wheat on an Oregon Farm is a lesson for all Renfrew County Farmers, says Renfrew County National Farmers Union vice-president Tim Tabbert. Only two months ago local farmers and consumers lobbied the federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food not to approve GM Alfalfa seed for sale in Canada. The Oregon story couldn’t come at a better time, says Tabbert. What happened in Oregon? Genetically engineered winter wheat was found when an Oregon farmer noticed volunteer wheat that survived after he sprayed with glyphosate (Roundup) in preparation for this spring seeding. Recently, it was confirmed that it is Monsanto’s Roundup Ready Wheat, which has not been approved in the U.S. or anywhere else in the world. The GE wheat was tested in experimental field plots in 16 states between 1998 and 2005. The last test in Oregon was in 2001. It is highly unlikely that this particular U.S. contamination problem has spread to Canada because of strict rules around importation of seed. “However, it is both a warning and a lesson for Canada’s regulatory system,” said Tabbart. “Monsanto was allowed to

do field testing of Roundup Ready wheat in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba from 1998 until 2004. It was only after intense pressure from farmers that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency tightened up the GE wheat testing protocol to somewhat reduce the risk of contamination.” American wheat farmers are “very worried” about losing export markets and suffering price discounts as a result of this confirmed contamination incident, says the NFU. “If this happens, their losses could be enormous,” said Tabbert. “Consider the liability issues. Why is a biotech company such as Monsanto allowed to get away with setting loose their unapproved genetic material via experimental field tests and yet pay none of the consequences when it escapes? “The market impacts of contamination are always borne by farmers who had no say in whether, how, or where these field tests took place. This is an injustice and it is not acceptable.” Tabbert said that was the reason the pending introduction of GM Alfalfa in Canada was brought to everyone’s attention this past spring. He maintains Canada’s legal system does not address GE contamination liability

matters, nor does the regulatory system consider the market impacts of genetically engineered crops or the effects of contamination on farmers who choose not to grow them. “Canada should not allow any new GE crops – such as Roundup Ready alfalfa – to be field tested, approved or sold until the regulatory system is revamped to take both market issues and contamination risks seriously,” said Tabbert. “With respect to GM alfalfa, as Renfrew County Farmers, we should seriously take a page out of the Oregon GM Wheat incident. At this time we know that because of the pressures farmers and consumers placed on Forage Genetics International (FGI) the company that Monsanto has licenced to use its patented gene in alfalfa has agreed not to release the GM Alfalfa seed for planting in Canada this year. “Some farm groups and the Canadian Biotechnology Action Network will continue their lobby so that we don’t find the same pressure for approval of GM Alfalfa come next winter,” said Tabbert.

Affordable housing a growing but invisible problem News – A survey released by Habitat for Humanity Canada’s national leadership council shows that while 64 per cent of Canadians believe housing will be less affordable in the future, few feel affordable housing is a problem in their community. According to Brett Marchand, national leadership council chair, these results highlight the fact that although Canadians see the warning signs, few appreciate the extent of housing need across the country. “When housing costs are unmanageable, families are forced to make impossible choices to get by, such as whether they can afford to feed their children breakfast before school or keep the heat on at night,” said Marchand. “A lack of affordable housing also restricts low-income families’ ability to break the cycle of poverty, which increases the likelihood of long-term reliance on social services. Affordable housing is defined as a situation where housing costs – rent or mortgage payments and property taxes plus electricity, water, fuel and other municipal services – amount to less than 30 per cent of a household’s total

Selected Merchandise 70% off

before-tax income. The survey found that households in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario were most at risk of exceeding this limit – provinces where Habitat for Humanity expects to cumulatively build upwards of 180 homes this year.

NOTICE TO CREDITORS

A special thank you to WZPS (Kim Shoveller) for once again, hosting Bill’s Memorial Track Meet on June 6th.

CARD OF THANKS

A BIG thank you to Natalie Spratt, Kelvin Somerville, and Doug Fraser for doing such an amazing job of organizing the days events. You continue to make a huge task look easy! A heartfelt thanks goes out to the many teachers, volunteers and retired teachers for their constant willingness to help make this day a success. Despite the rain, our young athletes had a great day!

I would like to thank everyone for their support and kindness shown to myself and my family during my sudden illness and surgery. This came on very quickly but due to the quick action of the entire medical team at R.V.H. and the Ottawa Civic Hospital my outcome is very positive. As they say patience is a virtue, I do have to learn that. I could not possibly name everyone that helped me but they know who they are. This community is now and always will be close to my heart. Thank you Kirk Anderson CLR451921

Thank you We would like to express our sincere appreciation to everyone for the tremendous support our family received during the tragedy that touched, not only our family, but so many in the great Arnprior community. Thank you for your prayers which so greatly strengthened, flowers, cards, food, phone calls, words of comfort all of which were evidence of your deep concern. We would also like to thank the young adults for their caring and respect. Thank you, each one, most sincerely, The Hughes Family
