Prince Edward County's mayor-elect Robert Quaiff was overwhelmed by the support he received in Monday's election and said he will make the size of council a priority early in the next term. Quaiff, who has represented the ward of North Marysburgh for the past four years, won the bid to replace current Mayor Peter Mertens, taking 4,837 and about 51 per cent of the vote. Jeff Goddard came in second garnering 2,817 votes for about 30 per cent, followed by Paul Boyd who took 1,811 votes and 19 per cent. While there was some nervous energy in the room as polls closed, Quaiff took an early lead and didn't relinquish it. “It's overwhelming to say the least,” Quaiff said shortly after his victory was declared. “I thought we had a pretty good chance going in, but politics is politics and you never know until the numbers start coming in. The nervousness is starting to dissipate now.” Quaiff said he's looking forward to working with the new council, which will have nine new members

come December. “We're going to meet oneon-one just to get an idea of what they would like to accomplish and see if I can start forming that cohesiveness that makes this council work together stronger for the residents,” said Quaiff. While he said he has just one vote like the rest of council, Quaiff said it will be

up to him to make sure councillors are having constructive discussions and making informed decisions. “The strongest thing I bring to the position is being a people person and bringing an understanding of how council works,” he said. The size of council has been a divisive issue on council for the last four

years, but it's one Quaiff said he would like to tackle within the first year of the next term. “The first thing we're going to be doing is tackling the budget in December and right after that the burning thing is council size,” he said.

Voters cast their ballots with change in mind in Prince Edward County as on election night Monday, there were nine councillors elected who weren’t at the Shire Hall table the past four years. In the period between Oct. 18 when advance polls opened and Monday, some 9,637 of the county’s eligible 22,006 voters made their voices heard through online and paper ballots. That 43.79-per-cent voter turnout was down from the 47.38 per cent of eligible voters turning out in the 2010 municipal election.

the end, Lenny Epstein lead ward one vote getters with 713. Treat Hull secured the second Picton seat with 663 votes. For Epstein, the leg work of campaigning was over as of Monday but four years of intellectual heavy lifting was soon to get underway. I'm thrilled and grateful for everyone that supported me and I'm grateful for everyone that ran. We had a lot of strong candidates in Picton. Phil (St. Jean), Ray (Hobson), Stephanie (Bell) and Laverne (Bailey) and Treat ran a really great campaign as well. Epstein said his focus will now be to represent the County as a whole when the municipality is dealing with arising issues.

The past week is one Prince Edward-Hastings MP Daryl Kramp will never forget — and it's also one he's working hard to ensure will never happen again. Last Wednesday, as lone gunman Michael ZehafBibeau shot and killed an unarmed Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, who was a ceremonial guard at the National War Memorial, then stormed the Centre Block of Parliament Hill, Kramp was in the Conservative caucus meeting. "I was about 10-15 steps away from the gunman going down the hall," he said. "There was no doubt I heard chaos. I just closed the door when the rifle shot went off. I knew right away we had a challenge — we had a problem." That day, Kramp said his training as a police officer instinctively kicked in, allowing him to barricade the doors and try to keep whatever might have been in the hallway at bay. "Obviously a number of us who had some kind of background experience got involved, we knew immediately and barricaded the doors immediately. We didn't have any idea what was there, if there was one or more and what the armament was," he said. "Once the whole myriad of shots started to ring out, believe me the activity of barricading the door stepped up quickly almost instantaneously." Kramp credited the security personnel on Parliament Hill for handling the intrusion in a timely and effective manner, noting that ZehafBibeau had little time or freedom to reach politicians.

MPP says he already has strong rapport with County’s mayor-elect

MAYOR, from page 1

“That's going to have to be dealt with. It was understandably one of the key things you heard when you knocked on doors. It wasn't about the debt we have, it wasn't about the infrastructure, they were number two — it was council size.” Quaiff has remained steadfastly against changing ward boundaries and said he'll seek a solution that will allow for a smaller council without taking away the county's historic lines. Throughout the last term Quaiff was also a staunch opponent to the Green Energy Act and has called for stronger municipal powers to ensure the construction of green projects doesn't impact taxpayers. He said that focus will continue.

He said the Wainfleet Working Group — the multimunicipal group leading the charge against the Green Energy Act — had suspended until the results of the election were known. “One of the very first things we want to do is get back to the table and try to develop a little more strategy going forward so that we can lobby with the provincial government and explain what our concerns are,” he said. He said a lot of council powers to deal with green projects have been stripped away. He said one such item is road use agreements. “The road use agreement is heavily weighted against municipalities,” he said. “When we have $500 million worth of infrastructure problems, it's time we got protect-

ed so the taxpayer doesn't have to foot the bill for any damage done to our roads because of the large equipment.” Prince Edward-Hastings MPP Todd Smith arrived at the Wellington and District Community Centre on Monday evening to congratulate Quaiff on the result. He said he and Quaiff have a solid working relationship and he looks forward to the next four years of working with the county's new mayor. “I know he's going to be a great mayor,” said Smith. “I've had the pleasure of working quite closely with Robert over the last three years in his council role and he's really taken a leadership role on a lot of issues here in Prince Edward County.” Smith said both Goddard and Boyd were great candidates, but Quaiff's experience gave him the advantage. All three mayoral candidates expressed some disappointment with the voter turnout this year, which was

ultimately calculated at 43.79 per cent. Goddard was succinct in his comments following Monday's results. “I'm very upset with the loss and I was disappointed only about 42 per cent of county people voted,” he said. Boyd echoed the sentiment. “I was very surprised. When I campaigned I said 'Would I like you to vote for me? You bet. But I just want you to vote,'” he said. “I guess there just weren't issues that warranted everybody getting out and trying to make a real change.” Overall, Boyd said he was disappointed with the result, but happy he was involved. He said he had no regrets from the campaign. “People made their decisions and we've got some good new people coming to council. Hopefully they can remember all the promises they made and do the right thing,” he said.

Hallowell’s selection of Nieman, Fox ends MacDonald’s lengthy run of council service

COUNCIL, from page 1

This is a new adventure that comes before me and I'm going to do all my due diligence on each issue,” I'd like to see us do a few things right away including live streaming of council meetings, looking at procedures to make our government as transparent as possible and from there, I think we need to find common ground and build a culture of consensus on council. Hull wasn't at the results event but thanked his supporters via social media and mentioned he was looking forward to working with Epstein and the incoming council. St. Jean captured 480 votes, Bailey, 413, Bell, 283, and Hobson, 277.

WARD 2 — BLOOMFIELD

Incumbent Barry Turpin ran unopposed and was acclaimed. In an interview with the Gazette following the Sept. 12 nomination deadline, Turpin said he looked forward to getting back to work. He said he'd like to get the budget done early each year so the municipality can get the best price on projects and save taxpayers money. He said he'd like to see a more collaborative council in this term. “We've got to solve the problems and we've got some problems we need to solve that the only way you can do it is if you work together,” he said.

WARD 3 — WELLINGTON

Incumbent Jim Dunlop returns to the Wellington seat having garnered a convincing 69.5 per cent of the vote with 684 of 984 ballots cast in his name. Frequent volunteer and entrepreneur Tina Konecny followed with 226 votes, while Marilyn Szoldra garnered 74.

Dunlop said he was looking forward to a return to council. “We've got some new faces and hopefully we can start off doing a little bit of bonding with council and move things forward,” said Dunlop. He said budget will be the first and foremost as the new council takes office on Dec. 2. “There will be no vacation for anybody,” he said. He encouraged Szoldra and Konecny attend council meetings and continue to engage in municipal politics.

WARD 5 — ATHOL

Jamie Forrester will be one of six returning councillors when he takes his seat for Athol in the next term. The incumbent received 355 votes, good for about 57 per cent of the vote. Newcomers Stan Grizzle and Tim Vanhecke garnered 149 and 123 votes respectively. Forrester said it was good to get a vote of confidence from the voters after serving his first term on council. “It's nice to know you

have the support of your community,” he said. Forrester estimated he knocked on 375 doors and attributed his success in this election to honesty. “Being honest with people and telling them the reality of what's going on in the county, over the years holding my voice strong and consistent looks like a big plus for me,” he said. He said he didn't change his campaign style much since he first ran in 2010. While he said dealing with the issue of council size isn't one of his priorities, it looks like it will be discussed early in the next term. Forrester said he will seek an in-house solution in that case. “It's pretty clear people would like to see a reduction in council,” he said. “… I would like to see council do this and do an in-house decision.” Forrester said the budget and winter maintenance will be issues he'd like to deal with in the short term, and over the term will seek to protect the ward's watershed and prime agricultural land.

WARD 6 — HALLOWELL

In Hallowell, perhaps the biggest news wasn't who was elected but who wasn't. Venerable political warhorse Keith MacDonald has sat on one form of County government or another since the 1970s, save a short foray into municipal politics in the late 1980s as MPP of Prince Edward-Lennox. Fox, who sat with MacDonald on County council during the 2006-2010 term, said the now former senior councillor for Ward 6 was a stalwart for the community for many years. “(MacDonald) has nothing to be upset about or ashamed about, he's served his community well for so long,” Fox told the Gazette. “I'm very pleased and grateful to the voters in Hallowell and I think having previous experience, people knew what they are getting.” Nieman, who led polling in the ward, is new to the Horseshoe but not new to the municipality having been formerly employed as a staff member.

See ELECTION, page 4

WARD 4 — AMELIASBURGH

Two familiar faces will return to their seats in Ameliasburgh. Incumbents Dianne O'Brien and Janice Maynard were the top vote-getters in Ward 4 with 1,188 and 989 respectively. Joining them at Shire Hall will be Roy Pennell, who garnered 862 votes. Newcomer Rachael Tracey received 477 votes, ahead of incumbent Nick Nowitski who received 387. Tim Fellows rounded out the candidates, receiving 323. O'Brien said she was

Dependable Service...

“absolutely thrilled, and honoured” to return to council horseshoe. “I look forward to working with the new council and new mayor to build a strong, united council,” she said. O'Brien said she will continue to fight to improve county infrastructure in the next term. “The roads are an issue that needs to be tackled early on in the next term,” she said. “The first thing is we're going

into budget, so keep the taxes as low as possible.” Pennell said he was ready to go to work for Prince Edward County. “I certainly look forward to working with Janice and Dianne,” he said. Throughout his campaign Pennell said he would seek a unified council who can work together. “I look forward to working in harmony with all councillors,” he said. “We realized there are areas we're going to agree on and areas we're not, but as long as we can keep talking, that's the way communication is going to carry this county forward.”

Hillier race goes down to the wire as Graham beats Lunn by 15 votes; Roberts tops Sophiasburgh polls

Now employed by Loyalist Township, Nieman said he appreciated the support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knocked on all the doors and had some great conversations with the voters,â&#x20AC;? Nieman said, adding his past employment history could provide some councillors old and new a view into the ground workings of the municipality. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe that experience will be a big asset. It's no fault of council but sometimes they don't understand the inner workings so hopefully we can shed some light on that,â&#x20AC;? he said. Kathryn Noxon rounded out the candidates with 459 votes.

WARD 7 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; HILLIER

In terms of tight races, there were none tighter than that in Hiller where, with 13 of 15 polls reporting, incumbent Alec Lunn held a nine vote lead over challenger Steven Graham. However, after the 14th polling station checked in, Graham swung into the lead with a 17-vote margin and held on after the final polling station reported, besting Lunn's 332 with 347. When asked how â&#x20AC;&#x153;councillor-elect Steven Grahamâ&#x20AC;? hits the ear, Graham admitted it â&#x20AC;&#x153;sounds pretty good.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;It's pretty hard to put words to it, this was a tight race and we have been on pins and needles,â&#x20AC;? Graham

said as the final results flashed on the video board at the Highline Hall at around 9:35 Monday evening. Graham was admittedly raw at Hillier's all-candidates meeting but he attended a number of debates and meetings in other wards to help get a better grasp on County issues and concerns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There's still a number of issues and I'm not going to rush right into them. I'm going to do my homework and talk to all the constituents,â&#x20AC;? Graham said.

Harrison said Tuesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I'm excited and looking forward to the term and dealing with some of the lingering issues right away.â&#x20AC;?

WARD 9 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; S. MARYSBURGH

With incumbent Barb Proctor not seeking re-election, two new faces stepped forward to represent the ward. Ultimately, it was Steve Ferguson who received the most votes with 410 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; about 81 per cent. Opponent Kyle Mayne received 95 votes. Ferguson said it felt great to see the support of voters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I'll try to do the job they voted for me to do,â&#x20AC;? he said. Ferguson said industrial

wind turbines are a pressing issue in South Marysburgh, and one that has to be dealt with early in the next term. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to deal with the turbine issue, with the pending decision that's coming from the courts in December and the wpd issue that's pending,â&#x20AC;? he said. Along with that, Ferguson said he wants to make sure the county's roads and the hospital are priorities. He said with so many new councillors, he hopes council will gel into a more cohesive voice that can get things done. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we can coalesce and work together without being as divisive as previous council, then we will be able to get work done,â&#x20AC;? he said.

return to his Sophiasburgh seat at Shire Hall, one will not. Newcomer Bill Roberts was the top vote-getter in Ward 10 with 798. Roberts was followed by incumbent Kevin Gale who received 634 votes, while fellow incumbent Terry Shortt trailed with 362 votes. Roberts said it was a honoured to head to Shire Hall, though he noted it was a shame more people didn't head to the polls this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I'm privileged and honoured to be so supported and elected by the people of Sophiasburgh and I look forward to heading on to the job,â&#x20AC;? he said. However, he noted it was too bad it was at the expense of Shortt. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Terry has served the ward and the county well in the last four years and I have a great deal of respect for anyone who puts himself forward for public office.â&#x20AC;? Roberts said he's been active in the community, serving on the board of directors of the Prince Edward Family Health Team and was an early supporter of the County FM radio station. Roberts said he will seek a smaller, more effective council early in the next term. Gale said it feels good to be back and he looks forward to working with Roberts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will reward the voters with some good representation in the ward of Sophiasburgh and work hard with Bill,â&#x20AC;? he said. Gale too pointed to the size of council as an issue that must be dealt with sooner rather than later. Shortt said he was disappointed and indicated his stance on some issues such as council size didn't sit well with voters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My stand on the size of council may have come back to bite me a little bit, but I still feel the way I felt through the whole thing,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I never sat on the fence, I picked my spot and fought for my spot.â&#x20AC;? Shortt, too, said the voter turnout was disappointing.

PRINCE EDWARD COUNTY

Looking back in the

Picton Gazette 90 years ago — 1924

n Some 5,104 people in Prince Edward County voted in support of continuing the Ontario Temperance Act here, while 1,236 voted for government-controlled liquor sales. The margin of victory (83 per cent) was similar to how the county voted in a 1921 provincewide vote against importation. n Dr. Doolittle, the president of the Ontario Motor League, visited the Picton Auto Club. He discussed the increase in the amount of people driving automobiles and ways the occurrence of accidents could be reduced and also noted that in travelling from coast-to-coast in Canada and across the United States, Prince Edward County was one of the finest examples of comfortable prosperity that he had seen anywhere on the continent. n Hiram Kotchapaw, of Fish Lake, was one of many local farmers to benefit from fine October weather as he posted a record second-growth crop of peas. The crop flowered and offered many pods and was in the canning stage. The family enjoyed several green pea harvests.

hikers still to come before the snow accumulates. Even then, the snowshoe fraternity will continue to walk these trails. We capture these moments in memory and by camera. We look at both yellow and white birch growing side by side, enormous white pines and American beech that somehow got missed during the early days of logging. As we return to the Tetsmine Lake Loop and continue our long trek back to the Kingsford Dam and the parking lot, we pause to gaze down the steep slope to the mine below. From a vantage point high above, remains of the mine are still visible, now silent except for the sound of a distant nuthatch. We can see the boiler nearby where it has remained, undisturbed, since it was last used in 1924 to provide the steam that ran the drill and the water pumps. We think about their lack of goggles, hard hats or electric lights, and little thought to safety. But, they earned a dollar a day – good wages back in those days. The descent into the Moulton Gorge to continue our hike seems to get steeper with each visit. This is my fourth time on the Tetsmine Lake Loop and the beauty of this spot never fails to move me. As we descend, the moment is captured by a rippling stream as it trickles down the slope to the bog below and to the left of us. Even during dry spells, this creek is always moving, and from a distance, appears almost black as it descends and finds its way over moss covered rocks and fallen trees that have succumbed to the steep conditions. In summer, its sudden appearance takes us away from the heat of the day; today, though, it seems to add to the chill in the air and the occasion-

al flurry of snow. We forge bravely ahead as even at this point, we still have another four kilometres to go. Frontenac Provincial Park is a special place for us. It takes us away. We have hiked trails on this side of the park when we have hiked for six hours and never met a soul. Whether it is the Tetsmine, Hemlock or Gibson Lake Trails here, or the grueling 21-km Slide Lake Loop that takes the hiker over the most rugged terrain in the park, the experience is always the same. The feeling of remoteness, and the connection with early pioneers who eked out a living in this unforgiving landscape by mining or logging, or agriculture in more charitable terrain, is special. It is a feeling that can only be felt when one takes to the trail of their choice – there are numerous loops ranging from the entry level Arab Lake Gorge Trail and Doe Lake Trail close to the security of the Trail Head office, to the challenging and more remote loops that take almost a day to complete. The trappers’ shanties, the mines, the logging encampments, the homestead crumbing remains and, of course, “Old Thor” the Norse God of Thunder of Frontenac Park where it has sat along another trail elsewhere in the park since the early 1950s after being abandoned when porcupines chewed the truck to pieces during the winter. And the wildflowers and wildlife. All special. We will be back again.

70 years ago — 1944 Where the hemlock touches the tetsmine n With candy scarce due to the war, children were being given Halloween Shell-Out stamps while trick-or-treating. For collecting and selling the stamps, children were eligible to win prizes or to redeem stamps for movie tickets. The proceeds from the campaign would support the Picton Kinsmen’s Milk-ForBritain fund to help children in England. n Major W.A. Dunn, the husband of Picton native Martha Mouck, was a much-celebrated pilot in the American military. Dunn used rocket bombs to sink a Nazi ship and earned a Presidential Citation, a Distinguished Flying Cross, and eight other service medals. n An Ontario Department of Agriculture survey showed an increase of 763 cattle in the county over the previous year’s total.

n MLA Norris Whitney suggested that Prince Edward County form a planning board to take advantage of industrial opportunities provided by the creation of the St. Lawrence Seaway and the fourlane Hwy 2. The board would also ensure planning occurs in the proper areas to preserve the county’s rural appeal.He arranged for a provincial representative to talk to council about the arrangements. n A large crowd was expected to attend a bingo at the Polamar Hall in support of the fundraising drive to build a new arena in Picton. The Picton Kinsmen Club offered a $100 prize to the winner.

n The Prince Edward County Board of Education approved a request from the Hastings and Prince Edward Counties Health Unit to establish a teen health clinic at PECI. The clinic would operate on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month and students would be able to talk to health unit personnel and gain referrals fo counselling or medical support. The clinic would not distribute contraceptive products, however. n PECI educators said new provincial testing of Grade 9 students’ reading and writing would be beneficial to help them identify students requiring extra help.

CANADA’S OLDEST COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER

The Hemlock Trail had become a distraction. It just sits there in the interior of Frontenac Park and as a relative newcomer to the 160 kilometres of trails in the park, I wanted to hike it. It is only a mere five kilometres in length, but the only way to access it is to paddle in from a campsite at Little Clear Lake, or choose a nearby trail loop and access it that way. No matter what the choice, it involves distance. The Hemlock Trail Loop actually touches and becomes part of two other loops – the 11 km Gibson Lake Loop, and the 12 km Tetsmine Lake Loop. We choose the Tetsmine Trail, and two hours of walking later, we finally begin our hike at Hemlock! When we return later in the day to where the Hemlock Lake Trail reconnects with the Tetsmine Lake Loop, we continue the Tetsmine Trail in a clockwise direction until we complete it too, for a total of 19 kilometres. The day is cool – in fact, much cooler than is predicted due to a heavy cloud cover, with temperatures barely touching seven degrees. There are even a few flakes of snow. The incredible beauty of Frontenac Park though with vestiges of fall colour still present here and there, along with the numerous bogs and lakes, soon make us forget the weather of the day. Overall, a gorgeous day for hiking, and we meet a dozen or more hikers, most of them scurrying to complete the Frontenac Challenge, an annual ceremony when hiking aficionados celebrate the presence of these trails by hiking all 160 km of them between September and October. Clearly, some of those we meet are on a mission. We exchange pleasantries quickly, and step aside as they speed by. Our preference is to take our

time. What is advertised as a four hour hike, becomes a six hour hike for us, as we like to gaze over bogs and swamps that have never seen human disturbance, where we are astounded to witness how beavers have scaled an almost vertical Moulton Gorge to reach tender saplings at its summit for a dam they are building a hundred or more feet below. Where we find remnants of this past fall’s zig-zag goldenrod, and delicate asters still putting on a show. There is the sudden appearance of a stinkhorn mushroom – fragile and pure in its early life, but transforming to a smell akin to a rotting roadside carcass as it turns black and dies. We come across a hermit thrush, either a resident bird from the summer, or one passing through on migration. It gently raises and lowers its tail upon seeing us, a trait that quickly separates this from other similar thrushes. Other than a passing band of kinglets, the only sounds we hear at times is the rustle of leaves from the thick mat that carpets the trail, soon to be mulched into usable nutrients with the trampling of many

Books & Company, Zest Kitchen Shop among Quinte Business Achievement Award winners

A pair of Main Street businesses in Picton were honoured as part of the Quinte Business Achievement Awards last Friday night. Mainstay Books & Company received the nod as the retail business of the year,

while the Zest Kitchen Shop took the award for the new business of the year in the region. Awards committee chair Sherry Hamilton said more than 90 businesses in the region completed the nomina-

tion process to be eligible for the awards. Event co-ordinator Jillian McCormack said there was a great turnout for the event, with even non-nominated businesses turning up to support those in the running for

accolades in the 17th year of the celebration of outstanding businesses in the region. For more on those businesses and their success stories, please see next week’s Gazette. -Staff

year’s Prince Edward County election has several such numbers that provide the basis for such fodder. There’s the notable feat Robert Quaiff accomplished, gaining more votes than both of his competitors. Then, there’s the sobering thought that 72 electors who managed to cast ballots didn’t bother to select a mayoral hopeful. There’s the notion the incoming council only has two female members, both from the same ward. And there’s also the strong turnout for two men who were new on the ballot this year, Brad Nieman and Bill Roberts, who made council accountability among the major tenets of the platforms they took to the electorate. Those are all good starting points, but the number that keeps screaming out following Monday’s vote is 43.79. That, of course, is the percentage of qualified voters who managed to cast ballots this year. Almost defying logic in a year when it has never been easier to cast a ballot, given the advances in voting technology and the long period voters had to cast their ballots, that is down 3.59 per cent from four years ago. The number should be raising alarm bells and it should be something Shire Hall takes very seriously over the next term. Some would say the fact that voter cards didn’t make it to their homes, or the notion that it took too much effort to follow bad web links was reason enough that some didn’t vote and that turnout took a hit. Though those are concerning issues, the fact that people don’t want to make an effort to shape their community’s future is a larger concern and perhaps it is an indicator of the state of government here at this time. It became clear over the course of the campaign that many who were engaged with their most directlyaccountable level of governance because put off and ostracized by their representatives when they couldn’t find a way to address the council size issue, despite two indicators — the referendum in 2010 and the public input process last year — suggested it needed to be smaller to be effective. Some of that trust will be difficult for councillors to restore, even those who paved their way to victory by suggesting they’d deal with the issue and listen to the will of the public. Beyond that issue, however, there appears to be a growing disconnect in many parts of the problem and a cynicism that municipal officials have much say in the issues that fall under their jurisdiction. They can’t help make laws about green energy, they have very little room to wiggle on services like policing and ambulance services, and they simply don’t have the resources at their disposal to do much about crumbling infrastructure. Some are probably resigned to the idea that taxes are going to continue to soar and services aren’t going to keep pace. While council can have a very valuable, necessary debate about the degree of taxation — and that’s something that will have to be discussed early and often in this next term — they’re fighting a losing battle and many people know it. Concerns about County staff controlling items councillors could control have only made matters worse in this municipality. Quaiff and his councillors are going to have to show the ratepayers that they are accountable and that they can influence policy, despite the constraints they’ve been given. It’s a tough task, one hopes they’ve got the ideas to restore interest and confidence by 2018.

Improvements to collection make library use easier

Keeping a public library collection fresh and relevant for a community requires constant attention, and when dealing with the close to 100,000 items in the County of Prince Edward Public Library’s collection, this is an ongoing challenge. Recently, a number of new systems have been introduced to help meet these goals with regards to all materials, including books, e-books, audiobooks, DVDs and other resources. One of the changes made recently includes the integration of Overdrive ebooks and audio books directly into the library’s collection. This makes it simple to find all materials available from the library in one database. The improved one-stop option, however, does require added attention when ordering materials online to ensure that the item being borrowed is, in fact, delivered in the format the user wishes. There have been a few incidents lately with library users mistakenly ordering the e-book versions when they wanted the physical title. A quick look at the format description when ordering will help eliminate any errors. Another improvement is the library’s new ability to send out e-mail reminders a few days before materials are due so that items can be renewed in advance easily right online, or by calling the library. When books are reserved, or put “on hold”, as we refer to them at the library, members can now also be contacted by e-mail rather than by phone when the items are ready to be picked up. This expanded e-mail service also means that when checking out books, rather than having a paper printout, the printout can be e-mailed directly to the member’s e-mail account. “None of these improved services can happen unless the library has a patron’s e-mail address, of course,” points out library CEO Barbara Sweet, “so we encourage everyone to make certain that the library has e-mail addresses attached to user accounts.” Library members can contact the library by phone, in person or by email to give their e-mail address so that they may take advantage of these new services. New Collection H.Q. software is also being used by the library’s collection supervisor, Liz Zylstra, to collect quantitative statistics about materials the library holds in its collection. This includes assessing trends, what’s most popular in which branch, what is not being checked out, and so forth. “We have recently completed a check of our adult nonfiction, evaluating every adult nonfiction item which hasn’t circulated in four years,” Zylstra says. “I am looking at the statistics for items borrowed and

monitoring trends in circulation.” With the new software, the library can see lists of the most popular authors at each of the library’s six branches. “Much like a bestseller list, we see names that you might expect, such as James Patterson and Nora Roberts, but also some that we found interesting – authors that are particularly popular at one branch of the library or another,” explains Zylstra. “Children’s author Geronimo Stilton and teen author John Green made the list in Ameliasburgh while local author Vicki Delany made the list in Consecon along with comic creator Jeff Smith. In Milford, we see children’s author Mo Willems top the list followed by Jeffrey Archer. Picton has Nora Roberts and James Patterson and last month, Brian Michael Bendis, creator of popular comics for adults was also highly circulated. Wellington sees James Patterson and Mo Willems joined by Ontario writer Louise Penny.” The critical evaluation of the collection allows better purchasing decisions to fill demand and anticipate popularity. Though accurate tracking systems and evaluation of trend is becoming increasingly important in the quest to always operate as efficiently as possible, the library still relies on user demands and communication. “If you have ever thought ‘I wish the library had more…whatever’,” says Zylstra, “we encourage you to voice your opinion. Last year the library responded to a request for a graphic novel collection, and the titles in this category have been checked out regularly ever since.” If you are interested in a particular topic or format, you may not be the only one and it is helpful for the library in developing its purchasing plan for the next year to hear any feedback on the current library collection and to request preferences. If you have a suggestion for the collection, contact Liz Zylstra at: liz@peclibrary.org, or to make a purchase request, contact Barbara Sweet at: bsweet@peclibrary.org or call 613-476-5962.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Bypass discussion was pure politicking at its worst

As reported in last week’s Gazette, a number of candidates for mayor and council at a BIA meeting opposed any bypass for Picton. This was pure politicking at its worst, as a bypass is not being actively considered. In fact, we already have an alternative traffic route to the ever increasing congestion on Main Street especially during July and August. Traffic driving

south on County Rd. 49 and heading beyond Picton but not intending to stop in town itself could be directed along County Rds. 6, 5, 34 and 4 to the traffic lights at the LCBO. This would reduce the traffic on Main St. and make it more attractive to pedestrians who are the people who patronize the shops there. Businesses fail because Main Street is becoming more and more unattrac-

tive to pedestrians who have the money to spend. The street is often choked with cars, trucks and tractor trailers all spewing noise, dirt and exhaust fumes, why would anyone want to walk along it? Why are tractor-trailers loaded with hay or straw allowed in town? I don’t think many shops on Main St. sell bales of hay. Similarly, why do tractor-trailers servicing Home Hardware, Canadian

Tire and No Frills use Main Street? All of these should be directed around the town centre. Does Paul Boyd’s comment about locals knowing the back streets really mean “take the tourist’s money but don’t do anything to make them welcome?’ The last council didn’t have much vision about the road system and it looks like the new one will be no

Changing of the guard sign mission was accomplished

I would like to congratulate the winners in the municipal election in Prince Edward County. What an exciting journey it has been for all of us candidates and what anticipation there must be for the councillors-elect.

There has been a changing of the guard and this was the primary motivator for many of the candidates ….so, mission accomplished. The fresh faces around the council table reflect a fresh start politics in the

county. We, as constituents, should feel very optimistic that we now will have ear time with councillors instead of face time, that optimism will ring through the halls of Shire Hall and in the hearts of the county folk.

I would also like to thank the wonderful people who expressed their confidence in myself by supporting my candidacy. I view this as the beginning of many new and exciting friendships and I look forward to continuing this

What were voters that backed Ford in Toronto thinking?

Well done Toronto for electing John Tory as mayor, but who were the 330,000 bummed out souls who voted for Doug

Ford? It helps one to understand why humankind are very susceptible to bald faced-lies and propagan-

da presented by tyrants, thugs and demagogues. And the worse of it is that those fooled this time will most likely have the

opportunity to be fooled again in four years.

Dear Sadie chronicles life during First World War

The provincial government has opened a new exhibit they are calling Dear Sadie. The exhibit chronicles the First World War experiences of Ontarians and commemorates the 100th anniversary of the First World War. The exhibit is curated by the Archives of Ontario. On Oct. 3, 1914, the first contingent of Canadian troops was deployed to England. More than 650,000 Canadians served during the First World War, including nearly 243,000 Ontarians. More than 66,000 Canadians gave their lives and over 172,000 were wounded over the course of the conflict. Since 1903, the Archives of Ontario has been the source of information about the history of the province and its people, with vast collections of documents, photographs, films, maps, drawings and art. The Ontario government is marking the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War with a new exhibit curated by the Archives of Ontario. According to the website of Archives of Ontario the exhibit will be on display from October 2014 to January 2016. Below is an excerpt from the website: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The First World War was a pivotal moment in the life of Canada. The conflict profoundly altered the political, economic and social landscape of Canada. And, just as the life of Canada as a whole was forever changed, so were the lives of countless Canadians â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both on the battlefront and at home. Dear Sadie â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Loves, Lives, and Remembrance from Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s First World War, currently on display in the Helen McClung Gallery, tells the stories of four ordinary Ontarians faced with an extraordinary event.

The Picton Gazette THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2014

MP says Thursday was difficult, but one of ‘finest days’ INTRUSION, from page 1

"If the gunman had an ample amount of time, he could have tried to get into our rooms, but when he is being chased by people firing weapons at him, obviously he didn't have that luxury. Generally, when people hear gunshots they run the other way, but our security people ran toward them. That says all you need to know about their dedication." Despite being in lockdown for several hours that day, Kramp said ultimately it was much more difficult for him to return to the House of Commons on Thursday. On Wednesday, of course, he said adrenaline sort of took over and several Parliamentarians were familiar with emergency action. "With sober second thought when it's all over with, all the what-if, what-if, what-ifs take over your mind and your imagination starts to run. You realize you're awfully thankful you are where you are." Once inside, however, Kramp said he couldn't help but be moved by the speeches from all three parties' leaders, the ovation for SergeantAt-Arms Kevin Vickers, who is credited with taking the fatal shot to end ZehafBibeau's rampage, and the overall tone set by all involved. "That was probably one of the finest days in that it started off with the prime minister and all the leaders had an opportunity to comment. They say actions speak louder than words and when the prime minister reached out and gave a legitimate hug to the other leaders, it literally almost brought people to tears," he said. "Though we might be brothers and we might quarrel, we are still family. That's the message that went out. It was powerful and very encouraging quite frankly." Kramp said he was moved to see so many Canadians turn out on the over-

passes and along the road sides as Cirillo's body was transported back to his hometown of Hamilton, and suggested that in a weeks that saw two soldiers slain — Patrice Vincent was killed in a deliberate hit-and-run near St.-Jean-sur-Richelieu near Montreal Monday — Canadians saw "some of the worst of humanity, and saw some of the best of humanity come out too." That said, he realizes there is work to be done, particularly as he is the chair of House of Commons public safety and national security committee. Kramp said no doubt the committee will be working on impending legislation, adding it was already working on some prior to the tragedy. He said the legislation would be designed to provide better protection to the Canadian people, but some checks and balances were needed. "We have to find that balance. The pendulum can't swing too far in the direction of civil liberties or public safety. We have to find a balance. That is our job." That said, Kramp indicated he believes fully that measures must be taken to protect Canadians from the threat of terror on their own soil and the impact of last week's events can't be forgotten. "Quite frankly, we have to be decisive. We can't just sit back and say that was a oneoff," he said. "The ongoing threat of terrorism has many heads. To suggest we might never see another occasion again and we don't have to plan and prepare for it (is foolish.) By all means, we need to be proactive, we need to be timely, and we need to be decisive to ensure the safety of the every-day citizen — not parliamentarians, but every citizen — we will take every measure we can within the bounds of sensibility." On Saturday, Kramp and fellow Parliamentarian Jeff Watson, who represents

Essex County, attended the Conservative nomination meeting for the Bay of Quinte as hundreds came to Centennial Secondary School to vote for the person they'd like to carry the party's banner forward in a future federal election. Two armed Belleville police officers guarded the entrance, while those in attendance listened to speeches from Jodie Jenkins, John Bonn, and Don Bonter. Bonn said the high attendance at the meeting sent a clear message that Canadian democracy is strong and not shaken by the past week's events. "What we have proof of this week is the resilience of our democracy. Days after one of this country's worst tragedies, we are gathered here in a high school gym on a Saturday morning to exercise the strongest symbol of defiance to terror. We're casting votes," he said.

Jenkins is Bay of Quinte’s first Conservative candidate Belleville councillor beats John Bonn, Don Bonter to carry party’s standard in new riding Staff writer

pArty’s pick Jodie Jenkins emerged victorious as the Conservative candidate for the new federal Bay o Quinte riding Saturday as he out-polled John Bonn and Don Bonter in a preferential ballot vote. (Adam Bramburger/Gazette staff)

Jodie Jenkins was able to sell federal Conservatives in the new Bay of Quinte riding on a particular type of experience he possesses. During his time on Belleville council over the past four years, Jenkins has raised his voice in contrast to the city’s mayor Neil Ellis, who has been chosen to represent the Liberal Party in the riding in an expected upcoming federal election. Leading up to Saturday’s vote at Centennial Secondary School, Jenkins touted that experience when outlining what he saw as differences

between himself and fellow nomination candidates John Bonn and Don Bonter. Jenkins pointed to his record at the council table, where he was often at odds with Ellis about spending. He said he fought to protect taxpayers against “massive borrow and spend” in the city and indicated he felt he was justified when tenders came in over budget. He also argued against industrial redevelopment without more certainty from other levels of government. “I always suspected Neil Ellis was a Liberal, just look at his borrow-and-spend ways,” he said. “I have coun-

tered his Liberal tactics and I know how to challenge his record. I can, and with your help, I will defeat Trudeau’s hand-picked candidate.” The message resonated as Jenkins defeated Bonn on the second round of a preferential balloting system that dropped third-place Bonter after the first round. The riding association released that 799 of a possible 1,500 electors cast ballots with some reports indicating it was a very close count between Jenkins and Bonn. “For me, experience did play a role,” Jenkins told the Gazette. “I also had support coming in from all areas.

helped that I grew up in Prince Edward County, work in Quinte West, and live in Belleville.” Jenkins was the first to declare his candidacy for the nomination, which he says he did to send a clear message that he was all-in for the job and not holding the potential for re-election in Belleville in his back pocket as an insurance policy. “I never wavered, I never hesitated,” saying he made that decision to be fair to those who supported him municipally and also to be fair to party members that he wasn’t going to split his focus on two goals. While Bonn waited to just before the deadline to announce his candidacy — he attributes that move to John Smylie dropping out the running — Jenkins said the change didn’t affect the job his team was doing. “I don’t think our strategy changed when John Bonn entered the race, we were still resolved to selling memberships.” Jenkins also attempted to address accusations by some in the campaign that he may not have been a true Conservative, having run twice unsuccessfully for the NDP for provincial seats in 2004 and 2003. He called those years his “increasingly distant past” and said he’d been building the Conservative movement from the trenches serving on the local board and on province-wide policy committees. Later, Jenkins told the Gazette that his views changed as he aged from 25 to 38, got married, started a family and bought a home. He said he even in 2007 on the campaign trail, he found himself agreeing with his Progressive Conservative rivals on fiscal issues and says he still holds a passion for helping those less fortunate that he brought to the forefront in previous positions. “My bedrock conservative values are rooted in the principles of faith, family, and freedom, not just in low taxes and balanced budgets,” he said. “You all know I’m a conservative through and through because I spent my time as a councillor fighting for lower taxes, spending restraint, and sensible strategic investments you can afford as taxpayers.” Jenkins said his media background and his understanding of campaigning through social media should help his efforts. “Social media, Facebook, and Twitter have altered the traditional landscape of campaigning. I plan to knock on every door I can and phone every voter I can’t reach by door — those methods are tried and true — but many today live on their smartphones, not land lines.”

High interest encouraging for local riding association NOMINEE, from page 12

“Knowing how to engage the voter and the media will be critical in moving our message, inspiring potential voters with our platform, targeting them with messages where they're at and moving them to polling stations. As a Gen Xer with my career in broadcasting, I can harness new media to win as the Conservative in Bay of Quinte and win we must.” Jenkins indicated his work starts immediately as he said politicians are always in a state of campaigning, regardless of when the election occurs. Though all three men had dedicated supporters and the votes would suggest a split between those calling for Jenkins and those for Bonn, the winning nominee said his counterparts were quick to come on board, noting Bonter’s team came to him immediately offering congratulations and he and Bonn had a “good chat” following the announcement. “He indicated he’s going to be helping in any way that he can,” Jenkins said. Like Jenkins, Bonn had been touting himself as the one electable candidate who could bring the party together to defeat Ellis. He came into the nomination meeting with a well-produced video segment — as did Jenkins — and garnered strong applause from supporters.

‘As a Gen Xer with my career in broadcasting, I can harness new media to win... and win we must.’

JODIE JENKINS NOMINEE

The litigation lawyer at O’Flynn Weese said he’s been a Tory since he was five yaers old and he’s been with the party through many situations. He said to win, the Conservatives must attract a broad base of people including labourers,families struggling to make life better for their children, and small business owners. “The people we need voting for us next year are not just the people in this room,” he said. “This party wins elections when it brings everyone under its big blue tent.” An Albury fruit grower, Bonter spoke of his time serving as the president of the Ontario Fruit and Vegetable Growers and his experience lobbying provincial and federal government to get results. He also indicated he’s been involved with the party in every campaign since the mid-1980s and is a supporter of the fiscal policy the current federal government has in place.

“At least in Ottawa we have a balanced budget presented this year, I’m very pleased with the type of budget presented in that area from the late Jim Flaherty onward. It’s well looked after,” he said, contrasting that with a provincial government he criticized for “spend and tax” policies. He indicated he doesn’t want to see that approach federally. “Do we want that kind of government in Ottawa? I don’t think so. We can’t afford it. Canadians can’t afford it.” Jenkins said he believes people will have two very clear choices for the style of government they want and added he’d do everything in his power to be part of another Stephen Harperled majority, while focusing on local priorities like the two current MPs Daryl Kramp (Prince EdwardHastings), and Rick Norlock (NorthumberlandQuinte West) serving parts of the new riding. Kramp, who has decided to run in HastingsLennox and Addington, where his strong base north of Belleville will vote next election, decided that he would not back a candidate publicly going into the vote because he felt it was his responsibility to work with anyone chosen. He indicated that he felt all three candidates were worthy and added he believes Bonter and Bonn can still be big pieces of

Jenkins’ team. “I’m very confident that regardless of who wins the nomination, they’ll all be participating as part of a team and that’s absolutely critical,” he said. “We need them all and I’m really encouraged by the cohesiveness I see.” Kramp said he was pleased with the full auditorium of voters that came out to hear the candidates make their speeches and also those who turned up later in the day to vote. “People are very strong in their principles about where we need to go as a country,” he said. “It’s a wonderful turnout.” While Kramp said in his experience a nomination campaign can be a gruelling, nerve-wracking affair, he was pleased to see it so hotly contested and added that’s a positive in terms of generating interest.

This year marks a decade of fine crafts at The Maker's Hand and organizers will celebrate by giving back. The annual show presented by the Prince Edward County Arts Council at the Prince Edward Community Centre, runs Friday and Saturday 10–6 p.m. and Sunday 10–4 p.m.

Organizers will be marking the milestone by recognizing those who support it every year. “We decided that rather than having a big party for everybody involved in making the show happen, we would give back to the people who are the key reasons The Maker's Hand is a success — the artisans, the shoppers, and the volunteers,” said organizing committee co-chair Veronica Cluett. Cluett said each day the organizers will give one person $100 to spend at any of the show's booths. The prize

refresh the show,” said Cluett. “We're quite thrilled about that.” Cluett said the quality of the crafts and the skill of the artisans sets The Maker's Hand apart from many craft shows. “It's such a high standard. You can liken it to One of a Kind in Toronto, but it's a smaller one,” she said. “While we don't jury the entrants, we select them … we get real, real excellence in handicrafts.” She said the organizers strive to have a professional level of artisans, and the show has been lucky to attract just that. Additionally, she said the show has been blessed with a solid committee of organizers, many of whom have been with the show for its entire 10-year run. “It says a lot about a committee when you have people stay on for a long, long time,” she said.

At the end the show the name of one artisan will be drawn who will receive a $100 refund off their booth fee. “This way we've shared in 10 years of success with the three key components that make the show successful,” she said. For their part, 18 of the artisans have come together to donate crafts which will also be given away as prizes to lucky visitors over the three-day show. Cluett said about 40 per cent of the vendors will be new this year, which adds a new flavour to this season's showcase. “It's nice to have a core of people who come back year after year.

Dedicated Langridge earns 4-Hâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top senior member nod, closes in on 100 projects County association salutes stars who exemplify learning by doing ADAM BRAMBURGER STAFF WRITER

It takes a lot for Shannon Langridge to miss 4-H events. Despite attending school at the University of Guelph's Kemptville campus and serving as its students' council president, the young leader still managed to participate in eight of the 21 clubs offered by the Prince Edward County 4-H Association this past year. Often, her weekends consisted of three days of meetings with other 4-H members

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Friday night dance club, Saturday scrapbooking, and Sunday quilting â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and she'd brave almost any conditions in a terrible winter to get home and do her part to share in the events. "There were a couple of risky times," she said. "The dance club held its Scottish dance night and I was one of only three members to make it. I was lucky to have a fourwheel drive and a Ford." With that type of dedication, it's no wonder that Langridge earned the CIBC gold watch Friday as the most outstanding senior member

with the organization. Her record over the past nine years, featuring a total of 96 completed club projects might also have something to do with it. "She's a pleasure to work with as a 4-H member," said local 4-H association president Sherrie Brown. "Any role she has taken on over her 4-H career she has accomplished and completed with efficiency and grace. She does a fabulous job helping, guiding, and building our other youth and he takes advantage of every opportunity within 4-H she can while still maintaining a tight schedule." Brown indicated that Langridge has impressed her leaders by treating everyone with kindness and respect and showing the meaning of the head, health, heart, and hands motto, while learning to do while doing. Ironically, however, there was a time Langridge didn't want to join any clubs. "I was really shy when I started. I didn't want to join 4H and I got the boot in the arse to join from a 4-H leader. It's something I respect her for and I'm so thankful for that today. Without that push, I wouldn't be where I am," she said. "Wherever I go, I defi-

nitely try to promote 4-H and grab new kids and leaders. It's such a great program that I strongly believe in." Langridge said those who hesitate to join miss out on meeting lifelong friends and they also miss some useful skills. Through woodworking clubs, members can learn to build their own furniture. Through quilting, they learn to dew their own clothes.

Through the agricultural and cooking events, members can produce food and they can learn to feed themselves for life. "It's leaders building leaders for tomorrow," she said. Though Friday's 4-H awards night at Pinecrest, hosted by the no-longer-shy Langridge and Brock Jones on behalf of the woodworking clubs was to honour the achievements of members, Langridge said it is an important celebration of the many volunteer leaders who give

She always comes forward with a smile and it is great to see what she has achieved as she has overcome many challenges," said Burley. The Keitha Gilbert Award, presented by the Gilbert family to the outstanding first-year 4-H member went to Connor Foster. The Bay of Quinte Mutual Insurance Award for the outstanding second-year 4-H member was presented to Evelyn Young. Bay of Quinte representative Art Wiersma spoke glowingly of Young when making his presentation. "What she has accomplished in a short time is very impressive," he said, adding that she's completed seven projects, served as a secretary/treasurer for two clubs and vice-president of another and has developed strong showmanship skills. Shae-Lynn Bell received the Ontario Ploughman's Association award for the outstanding agricultural member, having been to a number of fairs as an exhibitor. Brad Rabbie earned the F.J. Webster Award as the top dairy or beef show person from among those clubs. During the event, Ontario 4-H Region 3 representative Megan Burnside and ambassador Sarina Goodfellow handed out 17 certificates for new members and 27 certificates for members completing increments of six projects. Bell, Emily Algar, Becka Houghton, and Maggie Lindsay received Gay Lea Awards for finishing 24 projects in five years. Lindsay, Sara Evans, Emily Norton and Jaret Parliament hit the 30 project plateau. Jones and Codie Goodman were at the 36-project mark, while Langridge earned 90- and 96project marks. Burnside was impressed by her totals. "I can't tell you right now what the record is for the top number of clubs a member has completed is, but Shannon is going to give them a run for their money… and she's not finished yet," Burnside said. "Being a 4-H member is not about how many plaques you can put on a bar, or how many project completions you can find. It is absolutely about the quality of program you enjoy and the quality you put in to the program. This young woman not only completes 96 programs, but she does it absolutely amazingly. That is an unreal accomplishment." Burnside also noted that Prince Edward County had much to celebrate for the

year it's been. Though individual membership was down 20 per cent, the association still offered 21 clubs, including some new offerings and a Cloverbuds group for children aged 6-8. Many of those clubs selected members for special awards. For the beef club, Rabbie won the spirit award, Foster, the rising star award, and Christopher Bell had the champion animal. Rabbie was also the top show person. An offshoot of that club, the steer club examined raising a steer for the Picton Fair show and worked together. Dalton Jeffery was that club's most outstanding member. Emily Norton received the honours for the sheep club, while the dairy club recognized Becca Gorsline as its top first-year member. Kiandra Gibbons was selected as the outstanding junior quilting member, while Sara Evans was the outstanding senior quilting member. Wesley Tuttle, Thomas Davies, and Joseph Burley won honours for most outstanding members in the three respective levels of woodworking, while Jones was the overall top woodworking member. The dance club selected Emily Brisley as its leading member, the drama club selected Kiandra Gibbons, and the scrapbooking club selected Bell. The flower club gave its distinction to Lindsay, while the chocolate club selected Emily Algar. Norton was the outstanding member in the giant pumpkin and vegetable club and Abby Margetson was the outstanding horse club member. The outdoors, poultry, Milford Explore 4-H, and breakfast bonanza groups recognized all members. Beyond the scope of clubs, local 4-H contingents also participated in special events. A team of Foster, Codie and Cori Goodman, and Lindsay took part in Judge It Day in Campbellford. Cori Goodman was named the top novice participant and Codie, the top junior. Anthony Cumpsty, Codie Goodman, Houghton, Lindsay, and Norton were part of the Go For The Gold team, which travelled to Lennox and Addington to compete. Emily Arnold took part two provincial leadership development programs offered through the organization. The next big date for 4-H families is an open house Nov. 22. The association is also preparing for a provincial 100th anniversary to be celebrated in the spring.

Wellington completes much-needed weekend sweep Dukes take care of own end well in two victories JAson PArks

Staff writer

To stay within shouting distance of the middle of the pack of the Ontario Junior Hockey League's Northeastern Conference, the Wellington Dukes needed to have four out of a possible four points this past weekend. That's exactly what Wellington accomplished as they shaded the Lindsay Muskies 3-2 on the road Friday before coming home to dump the Pickering Panthers 7-3 at the Essroc Centre on Sunday. The wins left Wellington with a 7-9-0 record, still worst in the conference but only four points behind sixth place Kingston. Wellington’s head coach and general manager Marty Abrams was pleased with the results of the weekend and particularly how the club played in its own end for most of the weekend's set of games. “We spent a lot of time in practice last week playing without puck and it's good to see us tighten up and look after own end,” Abrams said Monday. “The strength of this team is from the back end so we need to work on that, getting pucks to the net, our cycle game and our forwards play in their own end.” Wellington roared out to a 4-1 lead Sunday night before the Panthers clawed

back with pair of quick goals to close the gap to one with seven minutes to go in the second frame. “We knew they were down 4-0 going into the third period of Friday night's game against Newmarket and scored four straight to force a tie so they are a slow starting team

that has the capabilities of having a strong finish,” Abrams said. “You could really feel the momentum shift when we didn't capitalize on a five-on-three and they came right back and scored two.” But nothing quite counters a momentum shift like a shorthanded goal and

Abbott Girduckis' 10th of the campaign at 15:59 of the second doused any comeback Pickering might have been dreaming of. Girduckis set up both Josh Supryka's goals (one at the end of the frame and the only tally in the third period) as Wellington rode on to a victory.

Blueliner Justin Bean also factored in as he had a pair of power-play point blasts in first half of the game. “I think the guys came together and we got good production from everyone in the lineup,” Abrams added. “Bean had his best game in a Dukes uniform

and Girduckis and Joe McKeown (one goal, two assists) stepped up and rose to the occasion.” Veteran forward Marco Azzano had a goal and an assist against Pickering and continued his solid play from Friday night's game in Lindsay where he scored the game's first goal and set up the eventual game winner in the third period. “We played a good road game,” Abrams said. “We got into penalty trouble and it's never easy in Lindsay but we played a solid road game and I'm proud of the way they battled through and preserved the win.” Andrew Coupland and McKeown set up Azzano for a power-play marker late in the first only to see Lindsay tie it early in the second. Later in the frame, Nick Devito and Griffin McCarty set up Ben Sokay to restore Wellington's one goal lead at 2-1. Early in the third, Luc Brown potted a key insurance goal with help from Azzano to make it 3-1. Lindsay would score partway through the frame and and Wellington was tasked with killing off a penalty in the final minute of the contest with the Lindsay netminder pulled for the extra attacker. The third period also led to a match penalty to Dukes forward Brandon Kosik who was tossed for kicking a Muskie at the Lindsay bench.

Consecon runner qualifies for Boston Marathon Kathryn Mattis’ time at Toronto Waterfront gives her a chance to apply to run in 2016 AdAm BrAmBurger

on the move Kathryn Mattis improved her time at the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon by about eight minutes over 2013. In doing so, she qualified for consideration for the 2016 Boston Marathon. (Adam Bramburger/Gazette staff)

When the Boston Marathon celebrates its 120th anniversary in 2016, Consecon's Kathryn Mattis is hoping that she'll be among the thousands crossing the finish line near the Boston Public Library. On Oct. 19 she came one step closer to that dream by turning in a time of 3:39:12 at the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon, just her third full 42.2 km race. By coming in below the 3:40 mark, she officially qualified for consideration to be included in the famed race. Mattis was excited to call home and tell family and friends that she'd done it, particularly since in may at the Goodlife Fitness

Marathon in Toronto, she'd missed her mark by a minute-and-a-half. Though she described the weather conditions as "perfect" for her recent run — cool and crisp, but not cold nor miserable — a bad break almost steered Mattis off her course. The pace bunny (a usually runner participants can match themselves with to meet an objective) she was following was not up to his usual standard and was not meeting the times she felt she needed to match to qualify. Eventually, he dropped out, but not before Mattis decided she'd have to set her own pace. "I just made the decision to go for it," she said. It paid off as she came into the finish line for a

moment she's sure to remember. "The finish line in Toronto is incredible," she said. "There are thousands of people there and you can see yourself on a huge megatron TV. It's a great atmosphere." Mattis said many worldclass runners take part in the event every year, so there is always a bit of a buzz around the finish. That she placed 33 of 223 women aged 35-39 and 1040 of 4038 people taking part in the competition was a further credit. The race was Mattis' 10th of the past year and her most recent since the County Marathon, where she ran the half-marathon and finished third of six competitors in her category.

The progression is also evident when looking back at last year's Waterfront Marathon as she's trimmed about eight minutes off her overall time. Mattis said getting into the Boston Marathon is a bit of an involved process as there are many runners applying in her age category. She said she'd like to run another event in the spring with a goal to improve her qualify time even more. Until then, she says she is training five days a week with a running club out of Trenton to improve. In two weeks, Mattis is planning on running a six-hour ultramarathon event designed to really test her endurance.

scored at 10:40 to get the Panthers on the board. Dylan Baxter's power-play marker at 13:26 cut the gap to two and Matthew Hunt made things interesting with a goal at 17:39. With Port Hope coming on strong the Pirates couldn't clear the puck and with one second left Baxter tied the game. There was some debate about whether the puck crossed the line before the final horn, but in the end it was ruled a goal. For their part, the Pirates didn't shrink from the adversity. Just 49 seconds into the overtime it was Boomhower scoring to secure the two points. Picton will clash with fifth-place Amherstview in a home-and-home series this week. The Pirates will take on the Jets tonight in Picton before heading to Amherstview on Sunday. Puck drop for both games is 7:30 p.m.

The Picton Pirates have brought their season record back over .500 with a pair of victories against the league's best and worst this week. The club kicked off the week's games with a 10–0 romp over the last-place Deseronto Storm on Thursday, before defeating the first-place Port Hope Panthers 5–4 in overtime on Saturday evening. The wins improved Picton's record to 6–5–1 for 13 points in 12 games. The Pirates didn't waste any time getting on the board on Thursday. Deseronto started the game down a man with bench minor served by Brett Bateman, and Austin Labelle drove to the net. The puck trickled behind Storm goalie Matt Loveys at the 1:25 mark to put Picton ahead. They never looked back. At 3:19 Devin McCann doubled the lead and Phil Smith added a buzzer beater on the power play to make it 3–0 after one. Mitchell Burke tallied a pair in the first five minutes of the second and Labelle added his second of the

The Pirates looked to repeat the performance on Saturday and were rewarded for some hard work against a tough Port Hope team. Smith tallied a shorthanded marker at 12:55 of the first with McCann and Brian Bunnett picking up assists. With less than two minutes on the clock Farrell scored to make it 2–0 with Bunnett and Burke getting the helpers. The Pirates continued to force the issue in the second. At 6:30 Burke finished off a play from Labelle and Smith to make it 3–0. Less than two minutes later Farrell scored to give Picton a commanding 4–0 lead with 20 minutes to play. Boomhower and Liam Hunter had the assists. However, the pendulum of momentum swung hard the other way midway through the third. Port Hope's Shawn Mackie

Abrams earns 600th win

DUKES, from page 18

OUT OF REACH

The Picton Gazette

Abrams didn't have a good view of the play was Kosik was hit through the door of the Lindsay bench. “The linesman called it after the whistle and I'm not sure exactly what happened, there's nothing conclusive on video,” Abrams said. “The puck was laying there, so it was an in play situation and I don't know if it happened

when Brandon was trying to get up or he was trying to kick the pick ahead.” Kosik was originally given an automatic four game suspension although that could be increased or reduced by the league upon review. Dukes netminder Taylor Welsh picked up both wins in the Wellington net this weekend. Wellington hosts North York on Friday before playing in Orangeville on Saturday.

'Round the 'Roc: With the win Sunday, Abrams posted his 600th OJHL victory which includes 458 regular season wins and 142 playoff victories...Wellington made a pair of deals this week, shipping forward Dylan Mascarin to the 2015 Dudley Hewitt Cup host Fort Frances Lakers and adding veteran BCHL forward Will Cook from the Langley Rivermen. Last season, Cook had 40 points in 52 games...McKeown and Girduckis lead the club in scoring with 20 points each.

Peewee Kings capture Milk championship

RUNNER, from page 18

Mattis said she got into the marathoning after joining her running group in Trenton, where she simply became inspired by the people she was around on a regular basis. She said the

experience has been one she has really cherished. "I love the environment. It's not intimidating and people are very supportive," she said. "I also love the sense of accomplishment you get from running."

The Kerr Construction Peewee Kings built on their B championship at the Motown Cup in Detroit, Michigan last week by going undefeated and capturing the Recharge with Milk Pee Wee title this weekend. The Kings won the A championship in dramatic fashion Sunday afternoon, besting the rival Port Hope Phantoms in a sudden death shootout after forcing the extra session with a last second goal. The Phantoms up 2-1 with under a minute to play, Hayden Legere sprang Luc Mayfield with a breakaway pass with 30 seconds left and Kings had life heading to a 4 on 4 overtime session. After a scoreless extra period, the Kings fired first and it was Riley St. Pierre staking the squad to a lead halfway through the sudden death round. At the other end, Nic McGrayne was solid for the Kings, denying a deke attempt by the Phantom shooter to secure the win. Jackson Fox had the Kings first goal early in the contest. In going undefeated in the tournament, the Kings downed Port Hope (4-3), Richmond Carleton West Crusaders (2-1), Simcoe Warriors (2-1) and the Ottawa Golden Knights (71) in preliminary play. After the championship game, the club was treated to a 10-minute talk by Hockey Hall of Famer Paul Coffey who was in Wellington with the Ontario Junior Hockey League's Pickering Panthers. An estimated 700 players were in the county for the tournament, providing a windfall for the local economy and lots of action for hockey fans. In addition to the Peewee Kings, the County Farm Centre Novice Kings also won their division. They beat Port Hope 8-2, Simcoe 2-1, West Lincoln 7-1, and Deep River 10-2 before topping Gananoque 5-1 in the final.

Battery recycling bags to return

Quinte Waste Solutions is advising Prince Edward County residents to watch their mailboxes over the next week for orange battery recycling bags. The bags will arrive with instructions about how to recycle spent single-use batteries properly. It is hoped those bags will be used during regular blue-box recycling collections between Nov. 10-21. Those who do not receive a bag in the mail are invited to visit any municipal office within the county, Belleville, Quinte West, Stirling-Rawdon, Marmora and Lake, Centre Hastings, Tweed, and Tyendinaga Township. In the past year, some 23,000 pounds of batteries have been kept out of landfills as a result of the regional program, the company says. -Staff

Blaze discovered at Dave’s Roadhouse Hydrant repairs didn’t impact firefighters’ efforts Jason Parks

Staff writer

Prince Edward County firefighters were on scene Tuesday evening battling a blaze at Dave's Roadhouse, a Bloomfield eatery in the east part of the village. Over 15 firefighters and support vehicles including tanker trucks were dispatched just after 10 p.m. Tuesday evening after fire was discovered in a storage area at the rear of the building. “The owner and three or four patrons were in the building at the time and they exited safely,” Prince Edward County fire chief Scott Manlow told the Gazette Wednesday. The fire department was

still investigating the cause of the fire Wednesday morning but its origin is not believed to be suspicious. Complicating matters Tuesday evening was the fact the fire hydrant system in the village had been undergoing repairs earlier in the day and was not at full capacity when the department answered the call. “We were advised earlier in the day there were some system repairs needed and the work was ongoing,” Manlow said. “We implemented our tanker shuttle procedure and the water department came in and boosted pressure to the nearby hydrants but by that time we had more than enough water.” Manlow said there was ample water supply at the scene via the onboard water the department's

Visual display to honour First World War soldiers Junior Panthers compile 2-1 mark in tournament play Picton United gathers artifacts to exhibit at concert Saturday

TICO#50007364

This Saturday, the Picton United Church will host the North Lakeshore Chorus and its musical tribute to the First Contingent of the Canadian Expeditionary Force, who sailed to Europe 100 years ago to fight in the First World War. While talking to the show’s organizer Michael Korn about venue set-up, the church’s chair of property and finance Dianne Hadley asked if he would consider allowing a display of memorabilia, photos, and articles linked to some soldiers who gave their lives during the war. He agreed and decided to work with Hadley to find the documents. It wasn’t long until news spread. Church member Debra Marshall took her granddaughter Sydney Babutac to the cenotaph and they returned with a list of local men who lost their lives during the war. Marshall’s sister Dianne had been researching the death of their father, Robert Hook, who left them letters, photos, and documents that belonged to his mother pertaining to his father and two uncles, all volunteers to the Canadian Expeditionary Forces. Sister Gloria Jowett added some further insight. Over the past month, Marshall researched and managed to find documents for some 30 soldiers including the other names carved into the cenotaph — familiar names like Dulmage, Farrington, Franklin, Van Vlack, Tuttle, Young, and Greer. She invited members of the church to offer their own memorabilia and photos for the display. Some went on government web sites and services like ancestry.com to find more details. Many of the documents are attestation papers and circumstance of death reports prepared by the government. Marshall said they offered a real connection to the soldiers. “These put a face to the names inscribed in the Picton Memorial. These soldiers became so real. Through reading these papers and researching the areas and battles where they served, these men came back to life,” said Marshall. “Even with no photographs we began to visualize these young men, short, ruddy complexion with sandy hair, scar over eyebrow……bank clerk, trainman, blacksmith, farmer, and student. With photographs available through Archives Canada, other collections and websites we have the opportunity to understand our community and our

In Belleville over the weekend, the PECI Junior Basketball Panthers got a good tune-up for the playoffs in tournament action. Splitting time in the gyms at Nicholson and St. Theresa, the Panthers went 2-1 against some traditionally strong competition. Starting against the second-ranked LaSalle Black Knights from Kingston, the Panthers found themselves struggling to compete with their opponents firepower as they lost 39-20. The second game saw the Panthers play the Weldon Wildcats from Lindsay. Initially, coach Rob Garden said his team pressed the Wildcats, but realized that was a mistake as their opponents could attack the basket. As a result, they lost the first quarter 6-4. The Panthers adjusted their defence, however, and controlled the play for most of the rest of the game, though they struggled to hit free throws.

LYDIA SNIDER

Weldon was forced to foul in the last minute and they sent Vanessa Willis to the line. She was six-for-six in free throws to pad her 12point game and give the Panthers a 28-22 win. Eight Panthers scored in the victory. In their final contest of the

Wh a t ' s On

weekend, the Panthers played the Eastdale Eagles from Port Colborne and won by a 32-12 margin. “Once again scoring was tough, but our defence held us in the game,” said Garden. “Eventually our offence kicked in.” Willis led the attack with 12 points, while Lydia Snider put up six. Again, eight Panthers found the hoop, which is something Garden was pleased to see. “We were happy we had seven or eight girls scoring each game. It will be key for us going forward,” he said. The Panthers are slated to host the St. Paul Falcons tonight. The juniors are set to tip off at 4:30, followed by the seniors at 6. -Staff

The beginning of October not only marks the beginning of fall, but the crisp mornings and cool evenings are a reminder that much of the coming months will be spent indoors. Mild temperatures make this a great time of year to take care of housekeeping tasks that will keep your home safe and efficient for the next several months. According to Hydro One, up to 40 per cent of home heat loss is due to air leakage. Ensuring that your home is properly sealed is key to preventing heat from escaping and keeping the cold air out. Here are some tips to help prepare you and your home for the season ahead.
