Lou Rinaldi talks about cuts at TMH By Kate Everson

MPP Lou Rinaldi talks to Quinte West council about healthcare. Photo: Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - MPP Lou Rinaldi was not the most popular person in the room at council Monday night when he talked about cuts at Trenton Memorial Hospital (TMH). The councillors were ďŹ ghting mad and wanted answers. Lou had none to give. “Trenton is my family hospital too,â€? Rinaldi said. “We have been through this a number of times. The hospital has been cut to the bone. We can’t do it any more.â€? Rinaldi said he was meeting with Quinte Health Care (QHC) CEO Mary Clare Egberts on Thursday morning and hoped to get some answers. “Things are very vague and murky,â€? he said. Rinaldi noted that the number of QHC employees on the Sunshine List (making over $100,000 a year) has jumped from six in 2008 to 58 in 2013. “The CEO makes 40 per cent more than the premier of Ontario,â€? he said. He said the province has increased its funding to QHC by 44 per cent over the last ten years. Since 2003 QHC has received $43 million more. He also noted that no one from Quinte West is on the healthcare board. “Our goal is to make sure the communities are represented,â€? he said. “We want it

to be fair and balanced. But I have no magic wand.� He said the LHIN is waiting for the same answers. Queen’s Park is watching the situation carefully. He did not want to speculate or fear monger but was willing to take on the challenge. Karen Sharpe asked about the time frame of when they would get some facts. Rinaldi said he did not know. Keith Reid asked if the Sunshine list compared with other hospitals. Rinaldi said he did not know. Al DeWitt said the board is made up of local businessmen but there are no mayors of local communities on the board. He said we have proven business people here who should be on the board. “We are not being represented,� he said. “We just have to sit and wait while they shovel dirt on us.� He said the city built its hospital and should have a say. Rotary and Kiwanis with citizens built it, yet Mary Clare Egberts dictates to us. Rinaldi said the government should appoint a facilitator. He noted the Scott Rowan report in 2008 decided how the boards were composed across the province. DeWitt said, “If they actually balanced the books, we wouldn’t be asking these questions.� Please see “Rinaldi� on page 5

Residents get Commissioner’s Citation for lifesaving

YOU R INDEPENDENT GROCER

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Andrew McLaren and Brian Lewis have been presented the OPP Commissioner’s Citation for helping save the life of a resident. “The individual was hanging off the bridge,� explained Inspector Mike Reynolds at the Police Services Board meeting on January 19. “These men saved the life of that person by hanging onto him until officers arrived.� The men were driving their ABC taxis in downtown Trenton when Andrew spotted a police officer hanging onto a man’s hands on the bridge. He immediately stopped and helped, also calling the taxi company for more assistance. Brian was next on the scene to help hold the man. “The man was not coherent, almost unconscious,� Andrew said. He said he did not know why the man was on the bridge or how he is today. “This is a message to everyone,� adds

Reynolds. “When something like this happens, don’t turn away.� The Police Services Board chair Jim Alyea also congratulated the men. Alyea was re-elected chair for another year, and Ted Reid was also re-elected as vice-chair. Chuck O’Malley is still on the board. New members are Councillor Sally Freeman and public member Don O’Neill. Reports were heard from Inspector Mike Reynolds, Staff Sergeant Dave Tovell, Detective Brad Robson, Community Police Officer Constable Dave Ludington and Quinte West Community Policing president Bill Trumley. Mayor Jim Harrison was also in attendance. “We would like to get an update in council,� Mayor Harrison noted. Police board meetings are held in the multi-purpose room at city hall and the next meetings are confirmed on April 20, July 20, and October 19.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our valued customers.

Belleville is the Taj Mahal, as [former CEO] Bruce Laughton said. “He said it was the centre of healthcare for the area,” he said. “We have to stay vigilant. We will fight the fight.” Alyea noted that the formula for QHC does not consider it as four sites, which is not fair. Fred Kuypers said there are too many people running too often to the hospital. Doug Whitney agreed but said he has been treated good there. Mayor Jim Harrison said it is important to recognize QHC as four sites. “We are here to keep what we have,” he said. “We have a fantastic medical system here.”

hospital saved more than me,” he said. “I was the 13th baby born in that hospital. It’s part of the community, a godsend. We have to have it.” Deputy-mayor Jim Alyea said the details are pretty murky. They talked to Mary Clare Egberts and they still don’t know. There will be $12 million cut next year, but don’t know if it be spread out among all four hospitals or just one or two. “The hospital has been cannibalized as it is,” he said. “Part of it is not even being used.” He said they can’t touch Bancroft hospital because it is so far out. They are building another hospital in Picton. And

to make sure Quinte West is not treated differently. “How to do it, I don’t know,” he admitted. “We need to make sure we get the services we deserve.” Doug Whitney asked how much healthcare has been cut. Rinaldi said there has been a cost of living increase of two or three per cent. He added that we have created a society dependent on the hospital as a catch-all. If you get a sore finger you run to the hospital. We need to try to treat people at home. Doug Whitney said he heard there will be $30 million in cuts over the next ten years for QHC, but there has been no clarification. “Nobody wants Trenton TICO#50007364

Duncan Armstrong said Quinte West has the largest military base in Canada and is one of the top retirement centres. Losing services at a hospital will affect schools and everyone. He also asked Rinaldi why he no longer has an office in town, not just Brighton and Cobourg, so people could talk to him. “Our hospital is on life support,” he said, noting he has set up a twitter account at #savetmh. Rinaldi said he has a strong objection to talking politics in this room, and this might be his last time here. He said his office has been strategically placed and he pays for two offices. Sally Freeman said, “We need you, Lou, for this battle. It will take more than cutting a few managers to save this hospital. We are in for the battle of a lifetime.” Rinaldi said, “I have never walked away from anything.” He said healthcare has not been cut, but along with education, has actually seen modest increases in funding across the province. Michael Kotsovos said, “Doom and gloom doesn’t do any good. Belleville cannot absorb about 30,000 patients from TMH. Trenton and Brighton need the hospital here.” Rinaldi said they need to find a way

OPINION

Three months a year

Editorial - Everybody knows where the population explosion came from. Two centuries ago, birth rates and death rates were high everywhere, and population growth was very slow. Then clean water, good food and antibiotics radically cut the death rate—and the huGwynne Dyer man population of this planet increased 300 per cent in the past 90 years. Eventually, as people moved into the cities and big families were no longer an advantage, the birth rate dropped too. The world’s population is still growing, but it will only increase by 50 per cent in the next 90 years. So far, so obvious. But what’s happening to the human lifespan is equally dramatic. Here’s the key statistic: the average human lifespan in a developed country has been increasing at three months per year ever since the year 1840. Everybody assumes that lifespan grew much faster in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and is growing much slower now. But no. It has plodded along at the same rate, adding about three months to people’s life spans every year, for the past 175 years. And yes, that does mean that a baby born four years from now can expect to live, on average, a whole year longer than a baby born this year. There have always been some people who lived to seventy or eighty, but the average age at death in 1840 was only forty years. By the year 2000 it was eighty years. That’s forty more years of life per person in 160 years. And lifespan is still rising at the same rate. In Britain, for example, the average lifespan has increased by eleven more years in the past fortyfour years. Three months per year, just like in the 19th century. This is why actuaries predict that babies born in the year 2000 will have an average lifespan of one hundred years. Give those babies the eighty years of life that people who died in 2000 enjoyed, then give them an extra three months for every one of those eighty years—and they will have twenty years more years to live. That is, an average of a hundred years. This sounds so outlandish that you instinctively feel there must be something wrong with it, and maybe there is. The fact it has gone on like this for 175 years doesn’t necessarily mean that it will go on

forever. But it’s not stopping or even slowing, so the smart money says that it will continue for quite a while yet What about the developing world? Most of it has been playing catch-up, and by now the gap isn’t very big any more. In China the average lifespan was only forty-two years as recently as 1950, but then it began increasing by six months per year, so that the average Chinese citizen can now expect to live to seventy-five. Once you hit an average lifespan of seventy-five years, however, the pace slows down to three months per year, the same as in the developed countries. India is a little behind China: average lifespan was still forty-two years in 1960, and is now sixty-eight, so it’s still going up at six months per year. But we may expect to see it fall to the normal three months per year in about 2030, after the average Indian lifespan reaches seventy-five. All the developing countries of Asia, Latin America and the Middle East are in the same zone. The sole exception is Africa: where 35 countries have average life spans of 63 years or lower. But even most African countries are seeing a slow growth in average lifespan. So do we end up with a huge population of people so old they can barely hold their heads up, let alone eat solid food? Probably not. Three hundred years ago Jonathan Swift wrote about people like that in his satire Gulliver’s Travels. Struldbrugs, he called them: people who could not die, but went on ageing until they were so decrepit and disabled that death would have been a mercy. They were declared legally dead when they reached eighty, as otherwise their longevity would mean they ended up owning everything. But they weren’t really dead; now it was the public that had to support them for the rest of their interminable lives. In real life, crippling diseases and disabilities are still mainly a phenomenon of the last decade of life, and as the lifespan lengthens that final decade also moves. Demographers now talk about the “young old,” who are in their 70s and 80s and still in reasonably good shape—and the “old old,” in their 90s and 100s, who are mostly frail and in need of care. So the time is probably coming when people must work until into their 80s, because the over-65s will amount to a third of the population. No society can afford to support so many. But by then people won’t be decrepit in their 80s. And the only alternative is dying younger.

Science relentless in pointing out mankind’s march toward self-destruction By John Campbell

Editorial - Humanity is slowly but surely signing its own death warrant. Oh no, not another piece on climate change! Not entirely. Yes, it has to do with what’s happening on the planet but it’s not just about the damage being done to the environment. How can it be just about that in the wake of what took place in Paris. People shot down in cold blood because their killers were outraged by how their religion had been disrespected. Freedom of expression has its limits but it is not for the offended, however much aggrieved, to punish those who cross the line with racist cartoons and screeds. That there is a long history of virulent hatred giving rise to savagery is reason enough to be pessimistic about what kind of fate awaits future generations. The brutal acts of terrorists are all but certain to grow in number and in consequence, and the “clash of civilizations” they are determined to set in motion seems destined to become a reality. But, as devastating as these conflicts are bound to be, with attendant great loss of life, they cannot match in magnitude the harm humankind is doing to Earth. Just as we are depriving other species of a home by destroying their habitat, we’re doing the very same thing to ourselves. Still not convinced after all these years that human activity is responsible for climatic changes that are to our detriment? Think again. More data was brought forward by scientists last week that point to that conclusion. According to NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 2014 was the hottest on Earth since 1880, when records started being kept of global temperatures. “It is exceptionally unlikely that we would be witnessing a record year of warmth, during a record-warm decade, during a several decadeslong period of warmth that appears to be unrivalled for more than a thousand years, were it not for the rising levels of planet-warming gases produced by the burning of fossil fuels,” Michael E. Mann, a climate scientist at the Pennsylvania State University, told the New York Times. This is not good news, as you can imagine, if you haven’t already read the reams of articles that have been written forecasting dire consequences

for billions of people occupying a planet that’s steadily heating up. The other bad news to come out last week was a report published in the journal Science warning mankind is pushing to the brink of extinction fish and animals living in the oceans. The article identified a number of factors: over harvesting, destruction of habitat, undersea mining, and, oh yes, climate change. Again, the hope was held out that the changes could be reversed–if humanity were to commit to begin addressing them now, a tall order for a species notoriously stubborn in its ways. “If by the end of the century we’re not off the business-as-usual curve we are now, I honestly feel there’s not much hope for normal ecosystems in the ocean,” Stanford University’s Stephen Palumbi, who co-authored the study, told the Times. “But in the meantime, we do have a chance to do what we can. We have a couple [of] decades more than we thought we had, so let’s please not waste it.” Then there’s this: five trillion small bits of plastic are said to be floating around in various garbage patches, weighing an estimated 250,400 tonnes in total, according to a third study, released last month. Yet another example, in a continuing stream, of the sorry impact man is having on the world, whether it’s polluting oceans, contaminating drinking water, clear cutting forests, or gouging the earth. This country shares in the blame for the continuing desolation of the planet. It still has a long way to go if it hopes to cut greenhouse gases 17 per cent below 2005 levels by 2020, Environment Canada reported in December. Talks to finalize the next international climate accord are to take place the end of this year. How many more studies will it take to stiffen Canada’s resolve to live up to its commitments and, so doing, help humanity go down a different path? It would be wonderful if the same old predictions of disaster found in endless studies and editorials were to be replaced with accounts of bold, courageous actions being taken by governments around the world determined to be good stewards of the Earth. Then and only then will humanity be able to crumple up its death warrant.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Pension increase doesn’t even The real cost of being tough on crime buy an apple these days Dear Editor, Our federal government is launching a “tough on crime’”program while not revealing its cost or lack of benefits. It costs $140,000 per year to keep an inmate in jail. It costs a staggering $250,000 per cell to build a minimum security jail. In the United States, this approach to crime bankrupted the state of California. Texas was planning to build three more correctional facilities but after they did the math, they closed three jails. States such as Kentucky, which has the highest incarceration rate, find that by releasing prisoners early, the saved money

could be spent on programs to reintroduce these people to society. Of course, there are some criminals that should never be allowed back on the streets. Law enforcement people know who the hardcore criminals are. The crime the government is focusing on mainly stems from poor people and ignores the corporations who blatantly skirt the law and risk people’s lives. The biggest issue I have with the tough on crime approach is that it does not work. When Canada was soft on crime and the United States pursued a vigorous policy of locking people up, the crime rates of both countries fell

at the same rate. The real approach to crime must be changing the conditions that foster crime. Poverty elimination, lack of housing, social programs proven to work, often take years to show results but do result in dramatic reductions in crime. For every dollar spent on early childhood education, seven dollars are saved as a result. Only by spending on our future, can we hope to truly reduce crime. Our politicians must look beyond the next four years. The money is there; it must be allocated more intelligently. Janice Gannon, Stirling

Dear Editor, I was reading your article regarding the increase in the number of people using the food bank and I was wondering if there have been any studies, or even just observations, of the number of seniors who use the food bank? I would think that number must be climbing more quickly

than a lot of other age groups. I was astounded to see the OAS pension go up only 50 cents per month from 2013 to 2014. I can’t wait to see what amazing monthly raise I get the end of this month for 2015. There are many seniors who get very little or no CPP because they worked on the farm or “just” stayed home and raised

their kids. And now they can’t even feed themselves properly. Your article mentioned the higher cost of heating a home but did not mention the higher cost of food. That 50 cents a month doesn’t even buy me an apple these days. Pat Vatta, Norwood

A fairy tale ending Everything turned out wonderfully, emotionally uplifting and enriching. Only on the way back, her suitcase carrying all the gifts, important documents and digital family archive, was delayed … she was even thinking lost for ten days. What a stressful time she experienced! The happy ending lies in the fact that the delayed luggage has been delivered to the lady’s home right on the first day of the new year making this time exceptionally special.

Every fairy tale has a moral, so I would like to add that this story illustrates how every moment of our human life, someone somewhere is doing things changing our lives, including the correction of mistakes. So never give up the hope and be thankful to all invisible Santa’s helpers or angels, who are in fact, people like yourself doing regular jobs in the vast but interconnected human world. Antonina Vassilieva-Durham, Belleville

Dear Editor, I would like to share with you my own story which is very close to a fairy tale. Once upon a time, there was a lady living in a North American town with a beautiful name. Every summer, she visited her relatives in her country of origin, travelling thousands of kilometres away from her current home. This year, however, two family reunions in Latvia and Russia changed her plans so the time of her journey landed right on the first winter month.

Riddell said Three-on-Three is a popular basketball game and can be held in half the space of a regular ďŹ ve-on-ďŹ ve game. There are separate categories in youth for male and female teams, but the open category over 18 is for both genders. “We will have the gym divided into two sections,â€? he said. “There will be basketball playing on both sides.

Big Brothers and Big Sisters host 17th annual Trivia Challenge

News - Quinte West - Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Hastings and Prince Edward Counties is having a trivia challenge. Executive director Arlene Coculuzzi says the event will be held January 29 at 413 Wing starting at 6 p.m. and attracts a steady following. “This is our first fundraiser of the year,” she said. “Teams of eight to ten people register to battle it out to win bragging rights of being Big Brothers Big Sisters Trivia Challenge Champions.” In the past the agency has compiled questions from all over and was fortunate to have local celebrity Rick Kevan. This year they have changed it up a bit and have a new Trivia Master, DJ Rockin’ Rob Eady, to keep returning teams on their toes. It’s a licensed event and there will be pizza for sale, a 50/50 draw, and prizes for the top three teams. “This is to raise awareness of our mentoring programs and bring together some amazing folks who believe in our organization,” she says. “It’s for anyone that enjoys a fun, laid back, night out with friends or colleagues while exercising their brain muscles.” There are ten fun rounds, ten questions each. Should there be a tie, it proceeds to the tie-breaking rounds to determine a winner. Registration is $20 per person and funds raised at the event go toward providing mentors to children in need of a positive role model to help them reach their full potential through various programs. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Hastings and Prince Edward Counties has been creating friendships since 1974. It started out matching Big Brothers with Little Brothers and has grown to include a

variety of different programs that serve both boys and girls. “We are proud of our achievements,” she says. “We continue to strive to be on the leading edge of the Big Brothers Big Sisters movement in Canada.” Coculuzzi adds that even though their office is physically located in Belleville, it continues to grow its involvement in Quinte West by hosting two fundraisers, Trivia in January

She says her son Jacob struggles in school and can get aggressive when he hears a loud sound or feels something touching him. “It is better when he has a child and youth worker beside him but such assistance is not always available,” she added. She chooses to fund herself by collecting scrap metal left on curbs, brake rotors and donations of vehicles. So far, she has collected about $2,200 selling scrap metal. She hopes to arrive in Ottawa on January 29, where she will meet other families with autism at a hotel. From there, they will walk the last

After watching her son Jacob struggle for 13 years and not have enough support, Gordon has decided to walk from her home in Etobicoke to Ottawa from January 15 to 29 to ask the federal government for help for her family. “I talked to my son and he liked the idea,” she adds.

This was the sixth year for the fundraising initiative. Through the support of the mayors, councils and DBIAs of Belleville, Quinte West and Prince Edward County, parking was free at the meters downtown throughout the month of December. During that time, visitors and shoppers in the downtown areas were invited to continue to put money in the meters as a donation to the Food for Learning programs. All funds raised in a particular community will be shared among the schools in that community. Despite falling short of their set

goal to raise $30,000, each participating community was successful in raising funds for student nutrition programs. The following are the total funds generated as a result of meter donations: Belleville: $7,386.92, Trenton: $5,922, and Picton: $1,718.92. This year, the funds collected through the meters were down from last year. Falling short of their goal this year Food For Learning will extend the invitation to those who still wish to donate to the campaign. Donations can be mailed or delivered to Food for Learning,

million. “The contract is being managed by the city’s facilities manager with the assistance of a privately hired construction manager hired by the city,” Jardine added. The dates the Environmental Assessment approval was given and the necessity for the dredging components to be off site before building construction began have meant that the building and site works have been pushed to a winter build period, in order to meet the marina opening deadline of May 2015. As soon as the concrete floor pad is finished, wood construction can begin and the structure closed in for internal construction.

“The city’s project manager and construction managers meet weekly and discuss issues daily, in order to manage progress around the winter weather events,” Jardine added. Completion of the internal roadway and parking as well as site landscaping will commence in the spring as temperatures and conditions allow. “The most sensitive portion of the marina development, from an environmental approvals standpoint was the dredging operation and shoreline construction,” Jardine said. “This work was limited to a tight construction period running July to September to avoid fish spawn-

ing periods.“ Following a competitive tender process the contract was awarded to Catalina Excavating at a total price of $2.6 million. Dredging and shoreline design was undertaken by Shoreplan Engineering. Dredging began as soon as required agency permits were in place and over 25,000 cubic metres of material was removed by the end of September. “As part of the contract, the entire shoreline underwent reconstruction and realignment including the placement of graded rock, turtle nesting area, underwater fish habitat and steel sheet wall in front of city hall,” Jardine said. This work was completed in October and the equipment removed for the site infrastructure building. In the spring of 2015 Catalina will return to complete the concrete capping work along the top of the steel sheet wall and place concrete pads to accommodate the landward end of the docks. The overall project budget was set by council at $12 million. The province of Ontario announced partial funding of $4 million in May, 2011, to be implemented over a three-year period. The third construction element of the project is the docks and breakwater which will be constructed off site and installed in 2015. This would provide a total of 384 slips of varying lengths divided between two marina basins, north and south. The construction focus for the target opening in May is to have the breakwater structures and the docks in the south basin constructed and installed for the 2015 boating season. This will provide 212 boating slips, all served by water and electrical services. In order to keep the project within the $12-million-budget ceiling as approved by council, the contract also covers the construction of a portion of the north basin, including the primary dock and boating dock (A3) with 62 slips in 2016. This will provide a total of 274 boat slips for use by 2016. “The current overall budget of $12 million does not permit the installation of docks A1 [56 slips] and A2 [54 slips] at this time,” Jardine added. “This will be subject to further discussion from council based on the successful slip purchases in 2015.”

Montreal Canadiens Alumni beat Quinte West Oldtimers By Kate Everson

Sports - Quinte West - The Montreal Canadiens alumni beat Quinte West Hawks (Old Timers) in a hilarious 12 - 5 game on Sunday, January 18. “The Canadiens liked the crowd,” said Bevett Horner, manager of the Quinte West Minor Hockey Association which raised

funds from the game. “They said Wayne was the best coach they ever had!” Wayne Baril had been selected to be honorary coach of the game, as a diehard Canadiens fan. He had originally been scheduled to coach alongside Guy Lafleur but this was changed in the last week to Yvon Lambert.

“Lafleur was having some difficulties,” said Horner. “We were glad to get Yvon Lambert to step in.” Yvon Pierre Lambert, born May 20, 1950, is a retired Canadiens forward. Although Yvon was drafted in 1970 by the Detroit Red Wings he started his career with the Montreal

Canadiens in 1973. He spent nine Kotsovos as #7.

SCC hosts another provincial championship

The Land O’ Lakes Curling Club rink, including skip Laura Reavie, third Laurie Healy, second Amy McConnell and lead Rosemary Enright, lost their bid for a championship in the Best Western Challenge last weekend, losing in the semi-finals in Stirling. By Richard Turtle

Sports - Stirling - A full slate of rinks from across the province arrived at several area curling clubs last weekend where the Stirling Curling Club hosted much of the women’s action in the Best

Western Challenge that wrapped up in Picton on Sunday. Club representative Rick Barnard was at the rink for much of the weekend and says the event was a big success, attracting hundreds of curlers to the

area for the annual competition. And it has been a busy stretch for the local club, to which Barnard and many other local curlers can attest, having only the weekend before hosted the Stirling Curling Club’s first Provincial Masters

Curling Championships. A total of 32 women’s rinks began their weekend of curling in the Best Western Challenge on Friday evening with the 16 teams making up the second draw taking to the ice in Stirling while

the first draw rinks faced off at the Prince Edward Curling Club in Picton. Meanwhile, the men’s events were under way in Brighton and Trenton. Please see “Stirling” page B2

Jefferson Starship plays insane psychedelic rock show The show started with a 30-minute set from a Picton-based acoustic guitar duo called Instant Rivalry. The group is a brother-sister combo, featuring Megan and Caleb Hutton. Megan also had a smooth and powerful voice, which could carry up to the rafters. The duo sang folksy-pop songs from

an album they hope to release through “crowdfunding.� That’s a term used to describe the act of soliciting donations for a creative project. It’s something more artists are doing in an age of social media, where there are fewer record companies and fewer

people willing to buy albums. To hear Instant Rivalry’s music and learn more about their crowdfunding campaign, visit <www.instantrivalry. com>.

her own songs. But the band now has some young energy, with a lightning quick lead guitarist, Jude Gold, and Richardson, who while only in her 40s, sings as if she experienced the music scene of the 1960s and 1970s. She, in a sense, is there to replace the band’s Woodstock-era lead singer Grace Slick. Her voice carried up to the Empire’s back row. Richardson later explained to the audience that she grew up listing to Jefferson Airplane albums for hours in her room and was thrilled to get an opportunity to play in the band.

Entertainment - Belleville - “Welcome to our insanity,� said Paul Kantner, the legendary member of Jefferson Starship, as he and his bandmates took the Empire Theatre stage last Friday night. And with that the band started more than an hour’s worth of psychedelic rock, driven by wild electric guitar solos and powerful vocals, led by the band’s new singer, Cathy Richardson. Jefferson Starship is a band that evolved following the rise of Jefferson Airplane in the 1960s. Friday’s show in Belleville, to a close to capacity crowd, included some well-known songs including Let’s Get Together, a smooth and catchy gem from Jefferson’s Airplane’s 1966 debut album. The band also opened the show with a wild version of Ride the Tiger, from their 1974 album Dragon Fly, which got the crowd grooving. It perhaps wasn’t the same as seeing the band in the 1960s and 1970s. Kantner, now in his 70s, played much of the show slumped over or leaning against a large case. He also took a breather part way through to let Richardson play some of

An “all time high” for local beef farmers By Brett Mann

News - Tweed - The Beef Farmers of Hastings County held their annual general meeting in Tweed again this year. Sixty-five members and guests of the club, a branch of Beef Farmers of Ontario, gathered to enjoy a roast beef dinner followed by a “routine” business meeting. Secretary/Treasurer Glynda Moore reported that the board of directors gained a new second vice-president in Mark Grant but “the directors didn’t change.” Darrell Russett remains president with Darren Farrell as vice-president. Beef farmer Dale Grant continues as advisory councillor. President Russett discussed the history and goals of the organization. “We have thirty-five paid members across Hastings County, but there’s a lot more farmers in Hastings County than that,” said Russett who operates the farm he was born on north of Stirling with the help of his wife Sandra and son Rodney. Monthly meetings deal with topics such as proper

vaccinations for cattle, how to treat animals, various medical problems and related issues. “It’s a place for cattlemen to get caught up on different problems we’re having. We do a lot of work to help 4-H members. We always have a booth at the Hastings County Plowing Match, and there’s always lots of recipes and different things available to help both the barn end of the farm and the kitchen end.” Other activities include an annual Twilight Supper and Auction, a “steer bursary” for agriculture students, and the OCA Cow/Calf Road Show where farmers visit different farms to share tips and knowledge. While the club does not directly address marketing strategies, Beef Farmers of Ontario provides consumer education on different cuts of beef, preparation tips and how beef is produced on increasingly high-tech farms. “Everything is documented,” says Russett, “whether it be a sore foot or pink-eye … all that stuff is documented and there’s a traceability

The Beef Farmers of Hastings County held their annual meeting and dinner in Tweed this month. Re-elected to the Board of Directors were President Darrell Russett, (l) Secretary/Treasurer Glynda Moore and Vice-President Darren Farrell. The industry is experiencing “an all time high” says President Russett.

end of it. It’s done with a scanner and radio tags that track where the animal was born and raised.” He adds that some farmers don’t use the technology, which is not particularly expensive, because they don’t

get any extra money for their efforts. “To me that’s a false way to look at it. It’s like buying a car; you’ve got to get a licence and insurance and all that stuff. The sooner they make it compul-

sory, there won’t be arguments about it. It should be part of the protocol to be able to raise animals.” Russett estimates the majority of “the cow/calf guys” have herds ranging in size from 35 to

150 animals, with Charolais, Angus, Hereford and Simmental accounting for most of the breeds. Availability of grazing land is a concern for Ontario beef farmers. “The people from the city have bought a lot of that land for recreation,” says Mr. Russett. “That’s taken a lot of land beyond what a farmer can afford to pay for it.” He would like to see provisions to encourage land owners (often absent) to allow grazing on their properties, and reports support from MP Daryl Kramp and MPP Todd Smith on the issue. “There’s lots going on at the government end.” One proposal is the Northern Cow Herd Extension plan to develop the sixteen million acres of grazing land north of Cochrane, but lack of infrastructure and roads present a huge problem. “Today we farm thirteen million acres,” says Russett. “We have enough [grazing land] here if we could get the land back in farmers’ hands.” Overall, times are very good in beef farming Russett reports. “I think we’ve got a great future coming. We’re at an all time high, but nothing ever stays at a high. Beef consumption is up and production is down. We’ve never seen the price of beef where it is right now. I don’t see it staying there forever, it’s going to go up and down, but we’ve got a good run right now and hopefully things will keep going.”

TRAVEL

Curacao’s Colourful Capital City, Willemstad

By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - The relatively small Caribbean island of Curacao is located just off the coast of Venezuela and very near the island of Aruba. It’s a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, with a population of only about 150,000, and its colourful capital city is Willemstad. My wife and I explored this intriguing destination of Willemstad, and we were particularly attracted to the beautiful, colourful Dutch colonial architecture so prevalent along its waterfront. After all, these colourful buildings seem to be featured in almost every tourist brochure, and they certainly do catch one’s attention. I learned that these colourful buildings weren’t always here, for most of these structures were originally built of sea sand and sea coral and were white. They often suffered from decay and what our guide called “sea cancer,” so it was necessary to apply a coat of paint annually. I was then told that a former governor of the island suffered

from severe headaches, and he thought that this malady was aggravated by the sun’s reflection off this plethora of white buildings, so he apparently mandated that the exterior be painted in any colour other than white, and thus the colourful buildings emerged, and this tradition continues on even now. To make this anecdote even more entertaining, I also learned that the particular governor who had made the decree actually had shares in the island’s only paint store. Go figure. The vivid colours found along Willemstad’s waterfront are one of the most stunning displays found in the Caribbean, and its city centre has now been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. However, we discovered that Willemstad had much more to offer, including the oldest continuously operating synagogue in the Western Hemisphere (the Mikvé IsraelEmanuel Synagogue), the Jewish Cultural Historical Museum (attached to the synagogue), the Pietermaai Cathedral (the island’s largest Roman Catholic

Willemstad’s Wedding Cake House.

Correction

An article about Quinte Health Care in the January 15 Connected section contained some incorrect information. QHC is not projected to have a $12-million deficit by April. Rather, Quinte Health Care is preparing to have a balanced budget by the start of the 2015-2016 fiscal year. If it does not make changes, it would end that fiscal year with a $12-million deficit. We apologize for the error and any confusion it caused.

church), the Curacao Museum (located in a renovated 1853 hospital), the Curacao Maritime Museum (with its maps, charts, and nautical equipment), the Kura Hurlanda Museum (which traces the history of the slave trade in this area), Rif Fort (originally used as a defence for the harbour entry, and now housing shops, restaurants, and a gallery), and Fort Amsterdam (now used as the governor’s home). We were also impressed by the city’s towering Queen Juliana Bridge, the tallest in the Caribbean, and its immense oil refinery; after all, since Willemstad is located so close to Venezuela’s oilfields, its harbour has become the largest oil handling port in the Caribbean. We also discovered that two city districts, Punda and Otrabanda, are divided by St. Anna Bay, which can be crossed via a floating pontoon bridge, the Queen Emma Bridge. This pedestrian bridge opens to allow large freighters through, so a warning siren will tell pedestrians when the bridge is about to swing open, so that they can rush across, or simply stay on the bridge and enjoy the ride. We, of course, explored both sides of the bridge, and discovered lots of shopping. However, we particularly liked the float-

ing market, in the Punda district, where Venezuelan merchants tied up their wooden boats and offered goods for sale, including clothes, crafts, and fresh fruits and vegetables. We observed that some of the locals didn’t even bother to park their cars while shopping here, for they simply slowed down and placed their orders, and then a merchant would run ahead and give them the desired products. Drive by shopping in Curacao. Punda, once fortified and walled, is the oldest district of historic Willemstad. The somewhat more modern Otrabanda district (appropriately translated as simply “The Other Side”) was founded in 1707, and here we found a maze of twisting streets and alleyways. We also discovered some old cemeteries in Willemstad, including a rather decrepit Jewish cemetery, Beit Hayim Cemetery, where many of the gravestones have sadly deteriorated because of acid from the nearby oil refinery. Ironically, this island refines oil for nearby Venezuela, but has none of its own. We also learned that people are buried above ground on this island, in family plots, and more family members keep being added to the same plot. Our guide told us it was like “an

afterlife family time share.” Our guide also recounted a story of an old house in Willemstad that some had deemed to be haunted, for the piano would suddenly begin playing. How-

ever, after further investigation, it was determined that the piano keys were actually being walked upon by tiny lizards that had come into that particular abode for a visit.

OPEN YEAR ROUND Marmora SnoFest - Thursday, January 22, 2015 B11

SnoFest welcomed the seasonable weather in 2014

By Judy Backus

2014 Event Review – SnoFest celebrated 36 years on the weekend of January 31 to February 2, 2014 when crowds of mushers and observers arrived at the fairgrounds and other venues around town for a wintry weekend filled with fun. It truly was a snow event with the trails boasting a hefty covering of the white stuff and plenty of it in evidence at the fairgrounds as well. It all began at the Community Centre on Friday evening with the opening ceremonies during which MP Daryl Kramp expressed thanks to those who make the annual event possible, pointing to the younger generation stepping in to carry on with Jen Bennett as the new Chair. Kramp, in speaking to the mushers, commented, “You have come to a warm, warm, friendly place. The weather may be a little fresh and chilly in some cases, but the hearts of the people here are absolutely magnificent. Have yourself a wonderful time. Take advantage of every activity - there is something for everyone.” The evening went ahead with the well-attended Marmora’s Got Talent, which attracted two entries in the 13 and under category and nine in the over 13 classification. Judges Paul Speight, Luke Mercer and Hynze Bryans had their jobs cut out for them in de-

termining the winners, who provided entertainment ranging from classical and country music to humour and rap. Speight commented on the outstanding talent, saying the judges had a tough job making a decision, as all contestants were “within fractions of one another.” First place in the 13 and under category went to Deanna Collier, with Kayla Carman in second. Matthew Rivera, Anne Marie McGregor and the DeJong family of eight violinists were first, second and third in the older division. The races began the following day with teams from across Ontario and one from each of Quebec and New York State participating in a total of eight dog-related events, which ranged over the course of the snowy weekend from sprints and skijoring to a 20-mile run to Malone and back. As always there were many other activities and events for all to enjoy both at the fairgrounds and around town, among them, an ice water rescue demonstration by members of the local fire department, the Back of Cordova curling bonspiel, the annual Artistic Expressions display and sale, and Who’s Growing Locally with its wide array of goods, both edible and otherwise, all produced nearby. There was entertainment for the children with Sat-

urday’s Kidz Zone, which provided both indoor and outdoor fun ranging from mime, face painting and storytelling, to music, hot chocolate and time spent sliding down a man-made hill. Sunday featured the impressive talents of Circus Jonathan Seglins, of Toronto, who provided two 20-minute interactive and very entertaining outdoor shows on Sunday, which had appeal not only for the children who sat in colourful chairs to enjoy the juggling, balancing and other feats, but also for the parents who stood nearby watching the show. Between performances, Circus John donned a pair of very tall stilts, then walked around the site impressing all with his agility. There was food to be enjoyed at the Legion breakfasts as well as at the Curling Club and on the fairgrounds, with a luncheon held at Saint Andrew’s United Church. Chainsaw carver, Levi Caya of Campbellford, who has been perfecting his craft over the past five years, set up shop on the bandstand where he worked on a bear, while onlookers had the opportunity to purchase other pieces of work or buy tickets on a draw for one of three carvings with the proceeds going to SnoFest. Saturday night featured a silent auction at the Community Centre along with the annual banquet catered by members of the Marmora Crowe Valley Lions Club, followed by entertainment provided by the Toronto based band, Running Red Lights. The group played again the next day following the awards ceremony when many gathered to receive trophies, ribbons and congratulations from Race Mar-

shall Shane Cox, who managed to participate in two races himself, winning the 20-mile event. Bennett commented prior to the presentations, saying, “I want to thank everyone who came out this weekend. We braved this great Canadian weather and saw lots of gorgeous dogs ... I hope we can continue to improve this festival for years to come.”

Have fun at the Marmora Snofest!

Chainsaw carver, Levi Caya, of Campbellford attracted a crowd who watched as he worked to create the head of a bear using skills he has honed over the past 13 years, five of those making use of a chainsaw. Several of his works were for sale, Four-year-old Mason Richter of Wooler had been practising for the Little while three others, an owl, a wolf head, and an Nippers’ race with his dog Bailey almost every day for four weeks before the eagle head, went up for raffle last year, with the 2014 event. His efforts were rewarded with a third-place finish in a field of proceeds going to support SnoFest. Photo: Judy Backus 15. Photo: Judy Backus

Sean grew up in Tweed, attended St. Carthagh’s School, Nicholson Catholic School and Herzing College in Toronto. Sean worked with computers, carpentry and truck driving. He finally found his calling in the barbering business. This allowed him free range to use his social skills, share his laughter, good humour and most of all his knowledge of the world and its people. Great music, the simple things in life and being outdoors made him the happiest. He loved his family and friends, especially his children, like no other could. Sean will always be loved and missed by his daughter Katie, his former wife Jill, mother of his children Jack and Nicole, mother Sheila, siblings Siobhan (Kim) Hughes, Kelly (Bob) Lord, Patrick (Sherry) Toner, Colleen (Siegfried) Kiefer and Maura (Jim) Thrussell, aunts and uncles Larry (Margaret) Byrne, Bob (Flo) Byrne, Fr. Gerald Byrne, Fr. Leo Byrne and his many nieces, nephews and cousins. Predeceased by his father, his brother Kevin Toner and nephew Adam Hughes. Great music, the simple things in life and being outdoors made him the happiest. He had a loving and kind heart for family, especially his children.

Sept. 21 1982 - Jan. 24 2014 We thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. We think of you in silence, we often speak your name. All we have are memories, and your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake, with which we will never part. God has you in His keeping, we have you in our hearts. A million times we’ve wanted you. A million times we’ve cried. If love could only have saved you, you never would have died. It broke our hearts to lose you. But you didn’t go alone. For a part of us went with you... the day God called you Home. - Author Unknown
