CCAC strike comes to an end, but arbitration looms

YOU R INDEPENDENT GROCER

By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - Southeast Community Care Access Centre workers are back on the job, after a two-week strike ended on the weekend. A media release issued by the Ontario Association of Community Care Access Centres on Sunday night said a deal was reached that will see striking employees return to work on Tuesday, February 17. More than 200 Southeast CCAC employees had been walking picket lines since January 31. The work stoppage had the potential to impact some 13,500 patients in the Southeast CCAC area, which covers Brighton to Brockville. The striking employees were represented by the Ontario Nurses Association. They represented a range of professions and many of the employees are responsible for visiting patients’ homes, schools or other community settings. The work stoppage ended after the two sides resumed talking on Saturday, with the help of a Ministry of Labour mediator. The press release stated that the CCAC and the ONA reached an agreement to participate in interest arbitration to settle the outstanding issue regarding wages. “We are very pleased that we will be able to resume our full range of care to patients,� said Megan Allen-Lamb, a provincial CCAC spokesperson. “We thank our patients, and health care partners in the home, community,

long-term care and hospital sectors for their patience and support through this time. We look forward to having our employees return to CCACs to resume their important work in providing care to patients.� A press release posted on the ONA’s website on Monday, February 16, confirmed that the striking workers plan on going back to work. But it also suggested that the labour dispute is far from over. The headline of the release made it clear there’s still some bitter feelings: “CCAC employers remain unwilling to negotiate a fair deal,� it said.
“During this strike, there has been a colossal waste of health care dollars as the employer spent taxpayers’ money foolishly on catered meals for management, overtime, strikebreaking security firms and high-priced lawyers, and who knows what else– with complete disregard for the public purse,� Ontario Nurses’ Association (ONA) President Linda Haslam-Stoud, said in the release.
“We always believed that our offer of several months ago to go to interest arbitration was fair and reasonable and best for our patients that we serve. Unfortunately, it took our members’ resolve when forced out on to the picket lines to bring the government and employers to their senses.� The Southeast CCAC was one of nine CCACs across the province involved in the strike. All together, more than 3,000 employees were on strike.

There is still some painting to be done on the tower which will be completed in the spring. In Frankford and Batawa system there was a boil water advisory issued on Christmas day owing to a loss of pressure. The water tower was out of service and a power interruption caused the pressure pump not to restart. “Staff restarted the pump within an hour,” he said. Samples were taken and the boil water advisory lifted the following day, December 26.

Quinte Economic Development Commission launches into 2015 By Kate Everson

News - Belleville/Quinte West The 2015 chair of the Quinte Economic Development Commission (QEDC) is Ross Rae. Former chair Ted Reid handed over the lead role at the board of directors meeting at the Quinte Business Development Centre at Loyalist College Pioneer Building on February 10. “We are stronger as a group,” Reid told the directors in his

parting speech. “We have sent a signal we are serious about this business. We are one of the top ten in Canada.” He said QEDC is in the ballpark with the big players now and is able to partner with multiple jurisdictions and governments. The organization has set out a framework to move into the future. The executive committee for 2015 is vice chair Mark

Walas, secretary treasurer Fred Little and executive committee member Ted Reid.

Parliamentary history 101

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor, I wish to commend Mr. Ray Kent for his excellent letter in the February 5 issue. In my opinion, he was bang on the money. Like Ray, I believe our parliamentary system is in dire need of reform, commencing with the voting system in both the provincial and federal houses. From some reading of parliamentary history, I believe they got into this weird system, commencing in 1841, after the

Correction The recent article about the Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club stated that Jeff Lay rowed for an Olympic Silver medal the same year as Wendy Pullan, 1976. It was actually 1996 in Atlanta for Jeff Lay, and 1976 in Montreal for Wendy Pullan. We regret the error

legislatures of Upper and Lower Canada had been united by a recommendation in the Durham report after the two 1837 rebellions. As I understand it each new government was formed by two members, one from each house such as MacDonaldCartier. They presented their government to the house and if they received a vote of confidence, they continued. They governed from issue to issue. If they lost a vote of confidence, they were

duty bound to resign and allow two other members to form a government or call on the lieutenant governor to call an election. This did happen frequently. It was only in 1867, that Sir John won a majority so could govern without support of the other parties. However, they still continued the stupid process of voting the party line, for every vote so all votes became votes of confidence. Thus a premier or prime minister with a majority became a virtual dictator.

What is required is all party agreement to define what constitutes a vote of confidence and then all other votes would be free votes. Now I believe the party leaders are leery of this concept because they seem to think if a free vote is allowed, then they will have difficulty whipping members to vote the party line on votes of confidence. Another reform needed is to open up the committee process. All parties should be equally represented and any

member should be able to bring forward amendments to legislation. The chairman of the committee would cast a deciding vote. We also need to change the electoral system. The first past the post system is totally out of date and results in parties winning election despite having received a minority of votes cast. But that is a debate for another day. John A.D.

Front Street parking lot will help downtown By Kate Everson

News - Trenton - A new parking lot on Front Street north of the Chamber of Commerce will be welcome to downtown Trenton. “The city successfully purchased lands along Front Street just north of the Chamber building,” said Chris Angelo, director of Public Works and Environmental Services.

The purchase on August 11, 2014, was in the amount of $325,000 plus tax and transaction fees. “In the 2015 Capital Works budget, staff has proposed the revitalization of this parking lot which would integrate well into the downtown revitalization plan,” Angelo added. Work has already been done on Front Street from the fire hall south to Elgin Street. “This work would also provide for the continuation of the riverfront trail,” Angelo said. This would consist of the exten-

sion of interlocking brick which currently exists by the Farmers’ Market and extend north along the water’s edge in a meandering pathway toward the greenbelt area just south of the fire hall. “This revitalization would also provide for an extended parking area to the front lot [Farmers’ Market] with a potential of 60 or more parking stalls,” he said. “This parking lot extension will be an added benefit to an already overwhelmed parking lot easing the stress and frustration of the existing and future consumers.” This proposed construction will also help promote future development and business opportunities adjacent to its proposed location, he added. The proposed parking lot is about 80

metres of riverfront at a depth of about 38 metres, with only 28 metres useable as the remaining ten-metre portion of the property extends into the Trent River. The construction of the parking lot consists of removing and excavating the existing asphalt and granular in order to reinstate it with suitable material. There will be two new Pay and Display machines, curbs, storm works, interlocking pathway to continue the riverfront trail, new landscape features such as decorative lights, benches, trees and sod. This project would also include a stone wall in front of the dilapidated riverbank retaining wall. Estimated cost of the project is about $500,000.

OPINION

Good luck to have potluck

Egypt under Sisi

Editorial - The “Islamic State” franchise in Libya, which is emerging as the main winner in that country’s chaotic civil war, published a video on Sunday showing 21 Egyptian men in orange overalls being forced to the ground and beheaded. The video made it clear that they were being killed for beGwynne Dyer ing Christian, “people of the cross, followers of the hostile Egyptian church.” Within hours the Egyptian air force responded with raids on IS camps and training sites in Derna, the group’s headquarters in eastern Libya. Announcing the safe return of all the aircraft, the Egyptian military authorities declared: “Let those far and near know that Egyptians have a shield that protects them.” But it didn’t really protect them, did it? Okay, that’s not fair. Everybody knows that you can’t protect people once they fall into the hands of the jihadi head-choppers. An air force is a particularly unsuitable tool for that job, nor can anyone stop unemployed Egyptian labourers from seeking work even in war-torn Libya. Most of the victims came from a dirt-poor Christian village in Upper Egypt, and they had to feed their families somehow. So the Islamic State fanatics murdered them because that is effective propaganda for a certain demographic where they are seeking recruits. Then the Egyptian air force flailed out aimlessly, and the public relations boys wrote the usual guff about the air force being a shield for the people. So far, so tediously normal–but the whole event also serves the narrative of the Egyptian military regime. We’re not supposed to call it a military regime. The military coup (with substantial popular support) that overthrew the elected president, Mohamed Morsi, in July 2013, was allegedly just a brief detour from democracy. But the commander of the armed forces, General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, ended up as president, and the promised parliamentary elections have still not happened. Why not? The main excuse Egyptians are offered is that the government is too busy fighting the huge terrorist threat Egypt faces. And don’t mention that the terrorism is largely the regime’s own fault, or that the threat is not so big that normal political life must be suspended. People who say that have featured prominently among the 40,000 who have been arrested since July 2013. (16,000 are still in prison.) What happened in Egypt twenty months ago was a betrayal of the democratic revolution of February 2011, when peaceful demonstrators forced former

general Hosni Mubarak out of the presidency after 30 years in power. Few of the urban, relatively well educated revolutionaries on Tahrir Square supported the Muslim Brotherhood, but they should not have been surprised when it won the first free election. Ninety per cent of Egyptians are Muslims, and most of them are deeply conservative rural people. They remembered that the Muslim Brotherhood had been Egypt’s main opposition party during the decades of dictatorship. They shared many of its values, and many of them had benefited from its social programs for the poor. They reckoned the Brothers deserved the first go in power, and gave it their votes. More secular people were appalled when a Muslim Brotherhooddominated constituent assembly amended the constitution to give it a more religious slant, although the changes were not actually all that extreme. And they forgot that in a democracy, you can change the government by voting it out. You just have to wait for the next election. Victory in the first post-revolution election was a poisoned apple for the Muslim Brotherhood. Every day its behaviour in power was alienating more people. The economy was a wreck (and still is). But it was not making irreversible changes in Egypt, so the right strategy was to wait it out, and then vote it out. Instead, the naive and impatient revolutionaries made an alliance with the army to drive the elected government from power. Did they think that the army, despite 60 years of military dictators in Egypt, was a secret ally of democracy? So General Sisi accepted their support, took over the government in 2013, and put President Morsi in jail. Shortly afterwards, he began putting the revolutionaries in jail too. But Sisi needs some excuse for destroying Egypt’s democratic revolution, and the excuse is terrorism, the bigger the better. He declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organisation, and when tens of thousands of non-violent supporters of the Brotherhood established a protest camp in Rabaa Square in Cairo he cleared it by force, killing at least 627 people by the government’s own count. Human Rights Watch has documented at least 817 deaths, and suspects there were more than a thousand. It was, said an HRW report last August, a premeditated assault equal to or worse than the massacre of Chinese protesters on Tienanmen Square in Beijing in 1989. The purpose, as in 1989, was to cow the population into submission, and it is working in Egypt as well as it did in China. But a bit of terrorism also helps to distract attention at home and abroad from what actually happened in Egypt. Even before the ghastly slaughter of innocent Egyptians in Libya on Sunday, the U.S. Congress had put military aid to Egypt back into this year’s budget proposal.

By Terry Bush Editorial - Some people cringe at the word while others smile from ear to ear. I’m happy to say that I’m in the latter category because when my wife asked me if I wanted to go to a Valentine’s Day “potluck” in our neighbourhood, I tried my best not to smile too much lest a little drool escape my mouth. Drooling is never a good look for a man. Considering we start our lives with wet faces and some of us will also end up that way, it’s best that any drooling done in middle age be left to the privacy of one’s own bedroom and pillow. My fondness for potluck suppers is both a result of my small town upbringing and a regular date I had early in life. Anyone raised in a rural community knows well enough the fun of a neighbourhood get together. Because my great grandparents had a flock of kids, we also enjoyed a regular potluck Bush picnic held usually at the home of Jack and Joan Bush on the Trent River. It was there I first experienced the joy of unlimited food, unlimited cousins and best of all, unlimited desserts lovingly prepared by the women folk. Back then it was rare to see the men do more than peel the odd potato to help out in the meal department. The only exception was barbecuing, though I’ve never really figured out how men thought they were the sex most qualified to cook meat over an open flame when women did such a fine job the other eight months of the year. And fudge of course. While the male members of my family were usually too busy doing chores around the farm to help out with the meals, my father and uncles managed to find time to make fudge for every special occasion. And they were good at it. It almost seemed like a competition of sorts and if a batch didn’t turn out exactly as expected, the passing of the plate often came with a disclaimer giving the exact reason it wasn’t perfect. To small kids, it all tasted great. My regular date for a potluck came once a year, when our neighbour Harry Waite would ask if he could borrow me for the annual father and son potluck supper at the United Church. The Waites had no sons, and my parents had a few spares lying around so they volunteered me for the first year and they didn’t have to twist my arm after that. The potluck was always great and with no limit on pie, one little Bush boy always came home stuffed and happy. Potluck suppers seem to me to be more of a rural experience though I’m sure everyone pitches in at group suppers in the “Big Smoke” as well. I’m

basing that statement on a few conversations with some city in-laws who don’t quite get the concept. When we used to have an annual corn roast at our old place, we’d supply the corn, some salads and a few other things to eat and leave the rest to the people attending. What should we bring, some city dwellers would say. It’s potluck, we’d say. But what should we bring they’d respond. Lost on them were both the concept and the meaning of the word. They didn’t quite get the fact that people would just bring whatever dish they wanted to bring and if it was taking place in a country setting, chances are people would bring a main dish and a dessert. The fun is in seeing what arrives. If you tell everyone what to bring, then what does luck have to do with it? At our corn roasts we were always lucky enough to have some entertainment. When contacted, one of our regular pickers would ask, “Did you invite the local farm ladies?” When I said yes, he’d always say, “Count us in then; farm ladies mean homemade pie.” The trick to a really great potluck supper is when people think outside the box and bring something they know nobody else will bring. My wife Mare likes to live on the edge, so for this supper she brought out the Junior Women’s Institute cookbook she has stashed away for just such an occasion. The living on the edge part comes in when you realize that the event was put on by the local Women’s Institute, so there was that distinct possibility that someone else might bring the same thing. She was safe with her fancy sounding peas and onions au gratin and after we were done filling ourselves, she was happy she didn’t go with the macaroni and cheese she’d first considered making. That’s one menu item you can always count on at one of these suppers along with scalloped potatoes. And I must admit that I did go up for seconds because I love scalloped potatoes and mac and cheese. So while we munched away at our neighbourhood potluck, some of us got joking about going to the Queensborough potluck the next day. I’m not sure if the other couples made it but we decided to go to Belleville to go shopping instead. The thought of another great home-cooked meal weighed heavy on my mind though and I seem to recall dabbing at the corner of my mouth once or twice. We ended up at North China Buffet. Not potluck but in a pinch, it was the next best thing.

Winter is hot at Quinte Ballet School of Canada Entertainment - Belleville - With the advent of spring just weeks away, Quinte Ballet School of Canada (QBSC) is dancing with preparations for the annual popular spring shows and the Summer Dance Intensive program. While the school had challenges over the past few years owing to declining enrollment from cuts to the arts and the economic climate, the current staff and board of directors has worked tirelessly to promote awareness of the school’s importance to the community. As a result, student enrollment numbers are on the rise, and with the renewed popularity of dance, in part thanks to media programming, this trend is likely to stick around for a while, the school believes. The current audition tour for the school’s Summer Dance Intensive has

led to an increase in student enrollments and there are several more audition dates on the calendar, including two at QBSC on March 8 and May 21. “These local auditions are usually well attended with people from across Ontario and Quebec as it gives families the opportunity to visit the community, the school and to meet some of the Artistic staff,” explains Ann-Marie Brady, Audition Tour Co-ordinator. Most of the Professional Program student population originates from the Summer Dance program, which requires an audition process and evaluation by the Artistic Director and her professional instructors. June 6, 2015, rounds out the school year with the much-anticipated performance of Spring Showcase, where the community and parents can witness the hard work, focus R0013140000_0219 and talent of these students in a variety of choreographed Hair Restoration CLAUDE AMELOTTE 35 Years Experience works and excerpts Hair Transplants (MUHG™ Procedure) from one of the Medical Wigs and Hair Systems classic ballets.

of Assemblé, a matinee on May 30. Students of the program will be presenting their class’ work to hundreds of audience members in Centennial Secondary School’s well-equipped theatre auditorium, and for some this will be their very first public dance performance. With the exception of the adult classes (QBSC hasn’t convinced the adults to join in the show … yet) students begin this important learning process in the beginning of March as part of their Term 2 curriculum. “It is heartwarming to see students gain so much confidence and enjoyment from this performance experience. They are so animated and dedicated to putting on a great show and the big smiles during and after the applause says it all,” remarks Helen Wells, administrator of the Recreation Division program. Term 2 began on January 31 and so far QBSC is pleased to announce that enrollment is very healthy. “We have welcomed a number of new students into the program, especially the RAD program, and will still accept youth class registrations for Term 2 until midMarch, the cut-off date due to the start of choreography,” says Wells, “and it has become easier to register due to our newly revamped website.”

Instructors create new works every year for both the Spring Showcase and Assemblé events, and have remarked that the process of teaching the choreography to students is not only challenging but fun. “All the things that the students have learned in dance, expression and working as a team comes together in one great, shining moment,” says QBSC Instructor & Professional Division Registrar Jocelyn Perry. The Quinte Ballet School of Canada,

a registered non-profit charitable organization, is proud of its position within the Quinte community as a place of learning and the arts.

Council approves $20.5-million capital budget By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Council has approved a $20.5-million capital budget for the city. “There will be no direct increase on the tax rate,� promised David Clazie, director of Corporate and Financial Services. He said the money will be paid out of reserves and debt financing. The council authorized secure debt financing of $11,475,000. “Our plan in the future may be with other options,� Clazie added. “We are well within what we can afford.� The only cut to the proposed budget was postponing the building of soccer pitches next to city

hall, taking out $300,000 and leaving in $40,000 for landscaping after the marina is built. “We have to do large projects in phases,� noted Mayor Jim Harrison. “There is a chance we will get a grant.� The majority of the capital budget was $7 million set aside for Public Works which is building a new consolidated building. Other costs were $1.2 million in corporate facilities and arenas, $1.26 million in corporate finance and parking, $665,000 for Protective Services, $2.9 million for water, $410,000 for wastewater and $7.4 million carried forward for new projects.

The capital plan is financed from $4.5 million in capital reserves, $2.5 million in federal gas tax, $1.2 million in provincial funding, $3.75 in city debt, $603,000 in water reserves, $440,000 in sewer reserves and $4.2 million in sewer debt. “The reserves all fall within the city’s ten year capital plan for use of the capital reserve,� Clazie noted, “as do the water and sewer reserves which fall within the current rate structure in place for water and sewer.� In addition, the debt financing for the city, water and sewer all fall within the city’s borrowing capacity and the financing of this debt falls within the city’s capital plan.

Savour the Chill award winner getting ready to warm downtown visitors

By Stephen Petrick

Events - Belleville - Greg Sheridan isn’t saying what he’s going to prepare for Downtown Belleville’s Savour the Chill festival this Saturday. But, if history is any indication, it’s going to be good. Sheridan, the owner and chef for Sans Souci, has won awards in each of the three years he’s entered Savour the Chill competitions, an annual February event put on by the BDIA. Last year, he won a judges choice award for a seafood chowder. The year before he won a second-place award for a coq au vin red wine chicken and rice soup. And in 2013 he won first for a French Canadian split-pea soup with a tourtière. This year, “I have an idea, but it’s a secret,â€? he says, with a smile. “I’m not giving it away.â€? While winning awards is nice,

Sheridan is really participating in the event because he sees it as an important opportunity to promote downtown businesses and get potential customers out and about at an otherwise slow time of year. Savour the Chill takes place during business hours on Saturday, February 21. Visitors are encouraged to cruise through the downtown and stop at a number of participating restaurants. Each will be selling small $2 soup samples, and customers can vote for their favourite. While Sans Souci is largely known for its catering, Sheridan also operates a cafe at 240 Front Street, and says he feels part of the community of downtown business owners who are all trying to promote themselves. He believes the best thing about downtown Belleville is it’s almost entirely made up of small, independent

businesses, not franchises. That means customers have more opportunity to purchase fresh food, made by local farmers. “I think the soup contest is a great way to get people to come downtown and get them to realize that the good food is downtown,� he said. “We have independent flavour here.� The Savour the Chill festival has also proven to be successful, he said. Last year, he remembers making two massive pots of soup and the product sold out. He guesses more than 400 people tried his soup last year. As for secrets to making a great soup, he says it all starts with the making of good stock. He plans on making lots of soup stock early in the week–and adding the key ingredients later on, when it’s almost ready. “It’s about building your flavour,� he says.

Community Policing gets serious about crime By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Constable Dave Ludington wants Community Policing to get serious about partnering with the police. “We are mobilizing our volunteers to help,� he said. Ludington said the Quinte West detachment is following the province’s Mobilization and Engagement Model of community policing. “One of the ways we can help is to try and reduce the number of 911 calls,� he said. Unnecessary 911 calls are a time waster in terms of police response. Many of the calls come from cellphones being dialled by mistake (pocket dial) and others Constable Dave Ludington is the liaison for Quinte West Community from children playing with the phone. Some calls were directed Policing. Photo: Kate Everson

to 911 when they should have been directed somewhere else. “A more effective call would have been to dial 211,� Ludington said. “Many people do not even know about his service.� He said 911calls are to be used only for emergencies, such as police, fire or ambulance, in need of immediate assistance. “This could be a crime in progress, a car crash or a medical emergency,� he said. On the other hand 211 (as listed on 211ontario.ca) is used for information on less urgent subjects and is available 24/7 and in 100 different languages across the province. “Our focus is to teach the volunteers about mobilization,� Ludington said. “It is problem-

based policing, using the community to solve the problem.� A recent meeting with volunteers showed that enthusiasm was not a problem. They were coming up with creative solutions to some of the issues in the community. They suggested that pamphlets could be distributed about the 911 calls, and students in high school could make videos for YouTube about it. There could be public service announcements on the radio. “We will launch the new program on April 1,� Ludington added. Community Police will involve social media such as Facebook and Twitter to let people know about their announcements

and get the community involved. “Everything will be done through the Community Policing office,� he said. “We have a couple of young guys who are good at social media and can input the information. It will all be approved first.� He said while this will be different from the previous Facebook page which had a lot of community input about local events, it will not be all serious. “We will have a nice balance,� he said. He said the volunteers are aware that community policing is a great tool to be used in crime prevention. “They know that what they are doing counts,� he said.

Public Works committee hears about safe drinking water tection of 2006 was approved on January 1, 2015. They have to identify threats to the water and take action. He noted this applies only to the lands near the municipal water intakes at Bayside, Trenton and Frankford. “There are forty properties affected,� he said.

“Most are agriculture related. There are not a lot of risks. We are in pretty good shape.� Wayne Scaletta asked if the MOE did any surprise visits to the plants. Tracey said they show up for inspections all the time. Chuck Naphan asked

if the Source Water Protection legislation translates into local bylaws. Tracey said the policies are incorporated into the bylaws. He is the Risk Management official and Amy Russell is his backup. Mayor Jim Harrison commented, Matt Tracey and Amy Russell present information on water quality to the “There is a level of quality here.� Public Works committee. Photo: Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - The Public Works and Environmental Services committee met on February 10, including Doug Whitney, Keith Reid, Dave McCue, Al DeWitt, Jim Alyea, Wayne Scaletta, Chuck Naphan and Bob Lockwood as well as Mayor Jim Harrison. Chair Fred Kuypers was absent. Al DeWitt took his place. First on the agenda was a presentation on Taking Care of Your Water by Amy Russell, compliance co-ordinator. She outlined the obligations of the city to ensure safe drinking water, according to the Safe Drinking Water Act of 2002. “You can be held legally responsible,� she said. Doug Whitney asked, “What if somebody gets sick? Are we as councillors responsible?� Russell said if the water is a health hazard, yes. Matt Tracey, manager of Water and Wastewater Services, said the city has to ensure a Standard of Care is in place. “Our job is to keep you informed,� he said. “I’ll be in a lot deeper than you.� Tracey said this is why they have monthly reports to council on everything that is going on with the water systems. Because of what happened in Walkerton, the decision makers are all accountable. “At one time the infrastructure was not being updated,� he said. “Now it is all upgraded. I heard things had been overlooked.� Dave McCue said they are all competent staff and rely on each other. Chuck Naphan commented, “This is the biggest single responsibility council has. Funding water is the number one issue above all else.� Russell said the information is available to the public on the city website to keep everyone informed. Tracey said the Source Water Pro-

Capital Works projects include roads and more roads

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Tim Colasante, manager of engineering for the city, has presented an engineering update on capital projects for the Public Works and Environmental Services committee. This includes $2.9 million in asphalt on roads, $2.4 million on new projects and $10.9 million on carryover projects from last year. The new projects are Carrying Place Road (Dufferin to Midtown Meats) including a new watermain at $1.8 million. Also the Front Street parking lot north of the Chamber of Commerce will include lighting and a walking path for $500,000. The Tripp Boulevard

sidewalk phase two for $100,000 will complete the circuit from St. Paul Secondary to the new subdivision. Two new bus shelters will be located in the city, adding to the existing ones on Front Street and at the YMCA. Carryover projects include a $6-million Highway 2 resurfacing and watermain at CFB Trenton along with another walkway crossing. “We are discovering things in the ground as we proceed,” commented Colasante. “Some plans were done in pencil.” Colasante was asked if there have been any problems getting the subcontractors to work with them. He said

the only problem has been with the gas company. “It takes them too long to get out to repair something” he said. “Bell looks a season ahead and has been no problem. But the gas company has five different variations and they are not working together.” Chuck Naphan asked if there were any cross-bores drilling through the sewer. Matt Tracey said there have been some issues. Tim Colasante said there were three companies doing fibre optics in town at the base, the city and in schools. Doug Whitney said they had problems with Dundas Street when three months

after putting in sewers the natural gas company dug it up again. “It cost us,” he said. Colasante said they have explained it to them but it does no good. He has asked them three times if they can go ahead and do Mill Street to make sure there is nothing else that has to go in. Don Kuntze asked the committee if there will be a crosswalk put in on Hamilton Road as people have complained it is too busy to cross safely and too far to walk to the lights. He also noted that at Kenron Estates there is low visibility on Highway 2 at the entrance. He was told to refer the questions to Chris Angelo, director of Tim Colasante presents a report to the Public Works committee. Photo: Kate Everson Public Works.

SFT Young Company heading to knight school friends, about the competitive spirit,” MacDougall says, with themes familiar to the players themselves. It follows a young farmhand with knightly ambitions and serious knight vision, who ventures off to seek his fortune. Featuring about a dozen musical numbers, including several involving the whole cast, the production isn’t shy on humour either. Patrons will be introduced to both familiar and new Young Company faces taking on characters including Sir Plus, Sir Real and Sir Cumference in a land of castles and chivalry. Longtime company performer turned choreographer Katie Nicholas has also returned for her, “I lost count,” show to design another round of song and dance numbers. In recent rehearsals, and under the watchful eye of Stage Manager Nancy Garrod, Nicholas has been putting the young talent through

their paces in preparation for opening night. The company encourages both experienced and new actors, Vanderlip says, with many participants returning to auditions for subsequent productions. And, Vanderlip says, the group continues to attract young actors from Stirling and surrounding communities with cast members of this show hailing from as far away as Deseronto and Bowmanville. So participation in shows can involve a significant commitment on the part of parents as well, he says, but it hasn’t proved a discouragement to date. In fact, opportunities for youth through the Young Company have grown substantially in the past five years with annual productions increasing from one to five in that time. A Tale of Knights opens on Saturday, March 14, with shows at 2 and 7 p.m. at the Stirling Festival Theatre, running

Quinte Red Devils Weekly Report Sports - Major Midget The McInroy Maines Major Midget Red Devils entered OMHA playoffs this week splitting the first two games with the Whitby Wildcats. Thursday, February 12, in Whitby was game one and was clearly not the boys’ best effort losing 8 - 1, with the lone goal from Tye Eaton, assisted by Justynn Steven. Game two, however, was a completely different outcome as the team showed tremendous resolve winning 3 - 2 in overtime. After going down 1 - 0 heading into the third period, the boys knew this game was not over. Robbie Ellis scored at 15:18 of the third to tie the game; assists went

to Shaw Boomhower and Christian Antoski. The Red Devils pulled ahead on a breakaway goal from Will Harrison unassisted at 7:24. Whitby tied the game at the 3:21 mark on a goal from Riley Sims which forced overtime. In overtime Christian Antoski broke free in the neutral zone and was able to put the puck past the Whitby goaltender to end the game. The goal was unassisted at 8:30 of overtime. Sean Storr was called upon to make some huge saves and boy did he ever deliver with several highlight reel saves throughout the win. With the series knotted at one game apiece, game three will go February 16 in Whitby with game four February 20 at the RCAF Arena for an 8:30 start.

Cast members of the upcoming Stirling Festival Theatre Young Company production of A Tale of Knights, by Ken MacDougall, are currently rehearsing for their run of shows during March Break.

Theatre Managing Director David Vanderlip describes it as an epic tale of heroes, princesses and knightly competition told by a cast of 14 dedicated young actors who will be spending several more weekends at the theatre as opening night approaches. Written by playwright Ken MacDougall, known to local audiences for penning several recent SFT Christmas Panto scripts, it is a story of the students of a Knight School where, against the rules, the competition crosses gender lines when The Good Knight Irene arrives as a student. “It’s a story about best

Big crowd, big win for Bulls on Family Day

By Stephen Petrick

Sports - Belleville - A big crowd saw a big win for the Belleville Bulls on Family Day at the Yardmen Arena. And now a long losing streak has been erased in favour of a modest winning streak. It’s a good sign as the Bulls head into the final 12 games of the Ontario Hockey League regular season. The Bulls’ offence exploded with a 7 - 5 win over the Peterborough Petes on Saturday night at the Yardmen. And on Family Day, Monday, a near capacity crowd of about 3,200 saw the Bulls pummel the Kitchener Rangers 6 - 2, an impressive feat considering the Rangers are the fifth best team in the Western Conference. Heading into the weekend, the Bulls had lost eight games in a row at home. Now they have a two-game winning streak. They’re still holding onto sixth place in the Eastern Conference playoff standings, with a record of 22-25-3-4. They’ll look to keep the momentum going this week. The Bulls head to Peterborough to take on the Petes (21-27-1-4) Thursday night and then host the Saginaw Spirit (23-28-2-1) at home at 7:05 p.m. Saturday night. The game is billed as Pink in the Rink night, and players’ jerseys and other items will be auctioned off to support breast cancer initiatives at Belleville General Hospital.

The Bulls will also hope to keep the offence coming, as last weekend’s wins marked a refreshing change for a team that struggled with scoring during a depressing stint in January and early February. On Monday, Jordan Subban got the Bulls off to a good start, scoring in the dying seconds of the first period to give the home team a 1 - 0 lead. Then goals by Matt Luff, Stephen Harper, Brett Welychka and David Tomasek made it

5 - 1 for Belleville after two periods. Welychka added a late shorthanded goal in the third period to seal the victory. On Saturday, Subban scored two goals in the second period to help the Bulls erase a 4 - 1 deficit, en route to a 7 - 5 win. Michael Cramarossa also scored two goals and Luff, Brett Gustavsen and Maurizio Colella added a goal each The wins erased the sting of

On The Rocks: Trenton Curling Club News

Sports - Trenton - This past Sunday, while nationally the Scotties was getting underway, we saw the next generation of potential future national competitors get under way at the Trenton Curling Club. The occasion was the Ottawa Valley Curling Association Zone 4 Little Rock championship, in which the top two teams would go on to compete in Ottawa in April. The field was a little smaller than last year, with teams from Brighton, Campbellford, Trenton, and Belleville, but you’d never know it from the enthusiasm and focus of the young curlers, or by the nervousness of a very large crowd of

spectators. The bonspiel consisted of three fourend games. Points were awarded at 20 for a win, ten for a tie, zero for a loss, and one per end won and each point scored. In the second draw the first-place team played the last team and so on. This did level out the field, and after the second draw the same format was repeated. At the end of the first draw, Campbellford led with 36 points followed closely by Trenton 1 at 27 points. Two Belleville teams were tied at 17 each, while Brighton at six and Trenton 2 at zero rounded out the field. Draw two saw how quickly the scoring format could change the standings, as Trenton 1 now led Campbellford 59 - 53, Brighton pulled up to 37, followed by Quinte 2 and 1 and Trenton 2. This now paired Trenton 1 with Quinte 2 and Campbellford with Brighton. When the last rock was thrown, Trenton 1 had edged out Campbellford with a score of 90 - 86. The crowd breathed a sigh of relief. The Trenton and Campbellford teams will now advance to the provincial final, but all of the curlers were winners. Every curling club needs new blood to keep the sport alive and these young people are paving the way for the next decade. A member of last year’s team, Melissa Whyte, aged out this year, but wanted to make sure I recognized her as the most awesome scorekeeper ever.

Sports - Quinte West - It was Pink in the Rink night at the Duncan McDonald Memorial arena on Friday, February 13, scoring big for Trenton Golden Hawks and the Canadian Cancer Society. “On behalf of ownership, management and the team we would like to thank our great fans and sponsors for making our second annual Pink in the Rink such a success,� said Hawks manager John McDonald. Scotiabank Trenton sponsors helped drop the puck and all the Trenton players wore pink jerseys that were signed and auctioned off after the game. Amy Doyle, Dianne Gaffney and Tina Furmidge were on centre ice for the puck drop. A special presentation was made to Player of the Month for January and CJHL star Brady Wiffen by team manager John McDonald and OJHL representative Brent Garbutt.

Trenton Golden Hawks alternate captain Brady Wiffen recorded a league-high 14 goals, along with 21 points, in 11 games played this past month. The OJHL’s second leading scorer, Wiffen continued his torrid scoring pace throughout January, firing home 14 goals to lead the entire league with 44 on the season. At Pink in the Rink night, Zach de Concilys had one goal and two assists to lead the Trenton Golden Hawks to a 5 - 2 victory over the Kingston Voyageurs. De Concilys got on the board by slotting home a goal 10:28 into the first period to make the score 1 - 0 Trenton. Brady Wiffen picked up the assist. De Concilys dished an assist on Wiffen’s 49th goal of the season that made the score 2 - 0 Trenton at 5:38 into the second period. He added another helper on Braden Hellems’ goal that made the score 3 - 0 Trenton at 19:09 into the second period.

Trenton got an offensive boost from its blueliners, who contributed three goals during the game. Trenton got points from Wiffen, who also registered one goal and one assist. Trenton also got a goal from Loren Ulett as well. In addition, Trenton received assists from Danny Liscio, who had two and Bobby Polachek and Chrisitian Lloyd, who contributed one each. Kingston kept the Golden Hawks’ goalie busy throughout the game, and Justin Kapelmaster made 29 saves on 31 shots. The Voyageurs’ defence let in more goals than it usually has this year. Kingston gives up 2.5 goals per game. The Voyageurs were led by Alex Tonge, who had one goal and one assist. Tonge scored on the power play 15:47 into the third period to make the score 4 - 2 Trenton. Kingston had gained a power play chance when Polachek was whistled for slashing.

Family day picture perfect at O’Hara Mill

By Diane Sherman

Lifestyles - Madoc Township - It was like a scene from an old movie at O’Hara Mill Homestead on Family Day, February 16, as volunteers, wordsmiths, musicians, horses and dogs created a winter festival both outdoors and in to raise funds for the Building Positive Horizons Foundation for children with mental health issues. Chair of the Foundation (BPHF) Chris Budd is also a member of the O’Hara Mill Volunteer Association. Budd, along with numerous volunteers from The Mill and members of BPHF organized the winter outing to share both the beauty of the conservation area and to raise funds for the foundation. James Reid, who started up the Amazing Sunday jam sessions at Amazing Coffee in Madoc a few years ago, returned with a few friends to entertain in the visitor’s centre. He was joined by local talents like Patty Timms from Hastings, music producer and bassist Howard Baer, guitarists Bill Milligan and Rob Crosby. John Foreman, who is best known as the guy who demonstrates hewing logs with a double sided axe, sat in with his banjo. In the replica log cabin, local sled dog veteran, Don McEwen told of his adventures on the Iditarod trail crossing Alaska, in his younger days. Madoc Township poet Deidre Reitav read her award-winning poem The Rooster and other work. Resident musician, wordsmith John Copeland told his stories while visitors sat around the hearth in the cabin listening, and watching out the window as a team of Budd’s horses came and went to and fro into the The Feeney family from Bancroft spent Family Day at O’Hara Mill Homestead in Madoc Township and contributed to funds for the Children’s Mental Health Foundation. Scott, Ellis, Niki and Taryn were just bush with visitors aboard a cutter. Please see “Chatting” on page B2

Chatting by an open fire a highlight at O’Hara Mill Continued from page B1

It was an enchanting scene. At the other end of the homestead, excited children took rides on a dog sled pulled by dogs from Chillipawz kennels of Tweed. Steve Shilleto and his nine dogs were a hit with both young and old, giving rides for the full four hour event. Shilleto said he had been going non-stop since opening at 11 a.m., stopping only long enough to change dogs while the others rested. Visitors took advantage of the sunny day to chat around an open fire and dine on treats from the food booth hosted by O’Hara volunteers. Mason jars were set up at various points on site to receive donations for the foundation. Budd was not yet aware of how much money was raised for BPHF, but it was obvious those who attended enjoyed both the sunshine and winter wonderland at O’Hara Mill. When not pulling children in the sled at O’Hara Mill Homestead on Family Day, Chillipawz dogs of Tweed made great friends with visitors like Holly Blount from Maynooth.

Ancient Egypt on display at Glanmore By Stephen Petrick

Entertainment - Belleville - A different type of history is on display for the next several weeks at Glanmore National Historic Site. The museum, in Belleville’s east hill, is known for paying homage to 1880s life in Canada, as it’s set up to show the lifestyle of the affluent Phillips family who lived in the house after its construction in 1883.

But from now until April 12, visitors to Glanmore can also learn about Ancient Egypt. A touring Royal Ontario Museum exhibit called Egypt: Gift of the Nile is on display at the museum. Regular admission prices ($6 for adults, $5 for seniors, $3.50 for children 5 to 12, free for children under four) still apply while the exhibit is there. Glanmore is located at 257 Bridge Street East.

Guests to the exhibit can learn about hieroglyphs, ancient Egyptian architecture, as well as fashion and religion of the era. Glanmore used to bring in a travelling exhibits yearly, but hasn’t done so for the past few years, said Rona Rustige, the museum’s curator. However, this year, staff ended the hiatus, with hopes that a new exhibit will bring in a few more people.

“We want to reach other audiences,” she said. Part of the exhibit is on the main floor of the building and part is in the basement. Downstairs, visitors can see the replica of a mummy and try on different ancient Egyptian jewellery and clothes, in front of a pyramid-drawing backdrop. The exhibit opened to the public last weekend and on Friday, February 13, Glanmore volunteers got an opening tour, after which they seemed quite excited about sharing the information with

visitors. Rustige says she and her colleagues believe the exhibit will be a hit and they’re preparing for a busy March Break. The exhibit comes at an exciting time for Glanmore, as a new 1880s style bed has been added to the upstairs second bedroom, meaning a room that sat fairly empty for a while is now complete. The museum is also in the process of removing the current carpet with a new carpet that will better match the 1880s style of the

house. Rustige said the carpet project is a big one for the house, as it marks one of the final big check offs on a list of renovations that have taken place over the last 25 years, to get the house to look as authentic as possible. “We’ve been doing a lot of interior restoration the last few years,” she said. “And we’re just about finished.” For more information on Glanmore visit, <http://glanmore. ca>.

lost per day. The OFA is addressing two specific areas relating to farmland preservation: general preservation of all farmland and reviewing protection plans. Weather touches every aspect of agriculture. As the entire planet grapples with climate change, this issue impacts agriculture more than any other industry. The OFAis working with the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs on three key areas: risk management for farmers in extreme weather events, climate change programs and policies affecting farmers, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The OFA is helping bring food literacy back into schools by giving young people knowledge and skills to make lifelong decisions about their food. If we teach children how to choose and prepare healthy foods, we are setting them up for healthier, longer lives. The OFA’s food literacy

goal is a key component of the National Food Strategy to ensure that by age 16 Ontario teenagers can plan and prepare six nutritious meals. The OFA is involved in the Invasive Species Act. Currently there is a giant invasive weed spreading across Ontario, threatening the province’s biodiversity. Phragmites australis is Canada’s most invasive plant. At heights of five metres or more, this plant forms large, dense stands in wetlands, choking out animal habitats and native species. It is becoming an alarming problem for Ontario farmers. The OFA wants to update the Trespass to Property Act of 1980. Intended to protect landowners, it restricts access to rural properties and compensates landowners for property damage. The current legislation falls short when it comes to deterring unwanted visitors. The OFA wants to impose a minimum fine of $500 for trespassing and increase the ceiling on damage awards to $25,000 (currently set at $1,000).

A challenging hike on Lake Titicaca’s Taquile Island

Visitors begin the gruelling climb up to the village. By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - As I’ve mentioned in a previous travel feature, I visited the Uros Islands, Peru’s floating reed islands, while boating on Lake Titicaca. I then continued my exploration of the highest navigable lake in the world by travelling to the more remote and much larger island of Taquile. This particular island, with a population of well over 2,000 people, is located about 45 kilometres offshore from Puno, Peru, and it’s a spectacular destination. It’s located high in the Andes, and its main village is situated atop a steep hill, at an elevation of about 4,000 metres (over 13,000 feet). To reach this village, I had to make a rather challenging climb after arriving to the island by boat. The elevation made the ascent that much more strenuous, and many of the hikers would often pause along the stone path, gasping for

breath, and sipping bottled water, before continuing onward and upward. I passed several stone fences and arches on my slow trek up this hill. It was about a 45-minute trip for me, but some visitors took much longer. However, although I was very pleased that I had successfully made this gruelling climb to the village, I couldn’t help but marvel at some of the locals who made that very same climb while carrying a large bundle of food supplies to be used up there. Several local inhabitants, known as “Taquilenos,” were making the climb with a child strapped to their back, or cases of Coke, or other village supplies. What a challenge. Once I reached the village, by passing through yet another arch, I entered the main square, where I found a large destination sign, pointing out the direction and distance to such places as Brussels, Paris, Moscow and

Madrid. I also found several village houses, and to several small communities. Both islands offer nearby outcropping of rocks, was keeping an eye some ceremonial sites, shops, and restaurants. I overnight homestays, if desired by the visitor, but on him. I then walked out onto the pier and back discovered the quality of the goods sold up here, neither destination has a fancy hotel for tourists. to my boat, and then I began the three-hour return including hand-woven textiles and clothing, was Once I went through the final stone arch on my trip to Puno. excellent, and that it was the men who were the descent and returned to the shoreline, I was greeted What a fascinating day trip on Peru’s Lake knitters (being trained from the age of eight) and by a youngster playing atop a stone fence.

I was also surprised by the quality of the village’s restaurant food, for the meal I received was one of my favourites on my entire Peruvian holiday and included quinoa soup followed by fresh trout. Most of the villagers still dressed in traditional clothing, as in bygone days, and HEIGHT: 6.02’ WEIGHT: 190 the majority of the inhabitants still used candles or flashlights for light in their small BIRTHDATE: ‘97-07-16 homes. Therefore, this village provided me HOMETOWN: CHATHAM, ON with a kind of time capsule of wonderfully preserved Peruvian culture. However, a few of these houses now had solar panels and satellite dishes–quite a contrast. Many of the hillside farms had grazing sheep. C E N T R E However, there were no alpacas, llamas, or “My biggest supporters!” horses on this island, and pet cats or dogs were extremely rare, with guinea pigs being more often the “pet of choice.” Residents pay no taxes on this island, and there are no cars or roads, so people walk everywhere.

LIFESTYLES

The Good Earth: Lifestyles - Here’s a story that will illustrate the title, even though it is not a gardening story. For many years in our church there was a group that met on Friday nights and were called–yes GR you are quite a perspicacious lot–The Friday Nighters. They didn’t always talk about church stuff; in fact, I even spoke to them once or twice about gardening. This group carried on for an amazing 60+ years. In the early 1990s another group of church families, those with young children, began meeting on alternate Friday evenings. One of the highlight activities was lip-synching, in which the “singers” would not actually sing the song but make it appear as if they were. Along with some hilarious scenery and skits, the song selections illustrated what our children were listening to. One day, probably in the parking lot after service, some older members were heard wondering where all the young people were. So, the Friday Nighters were invited to the Family Fun Night. They were quite surprised at the large gathering of families. Coincidentally, this occurred at the same time that Avril Lavigne was carving the airwaves with Sk8ter boi (skater boy). The first three sets of lip synchers had all chosen the same song. So, while the older, more established group were now aware of the “other” group, they were not common attendees of the Fri-

Grinding the gardening gears

day Fun Nights. Gardening is experiencing a similar transition, in the sense that there are distinct groups of practitioners and they seldom meet. We, yes you and I, are akin to the first group of Friday folk. We’re the ones who turn to the Home and Garden Television Network (HGTV) in the hope of watching something about gardening. I just checked out their entire TV listing for the upcoming week on their website and guess how many gardening shows were slated to run? In fact, the words plant or garden don’t even appear. Obviously, television gardening shows don’t bring in the viewers in sufficient numbers to generate an acceptable revenue stream from advertisers. That’s not a knock against the network; it’s more a realisation of how times have changed. Do you remember Dylan’s, The Times They Are A-Changing? Well, forget it because that time was 1964. The second group, you can call them Y2kers, Millennials or even Nexters, are engaged in building suburbia, aka Muskeg Meadows Subdivision. Apartments, parents’ basements and couch surfing are giving way to the ideal home (check out Audrey’s dream home from Little Shop of Horrors) and these folk are approaching gardening from the perspective of exterior decor. Have you noticed how the large garden shows, e.g.

Canada Blooms, have changed over the years? Similar to the HGTV folks, the exhibitors at Blooms are business people who provide what their customers are willing to purchase. They do not create gardening trends; they respond to them, and the clever ones do so in a manner that is most attractive to their primary purchaser. GR, we’re not them. Most of us have established gardens and we have garden routines. Over the years we have developed our methodologies and collected the tools to support those systems. We’re not big-time spenders anymore. At most, we might replace a hedge, plant a memorial tree, or buy some packets of vegetable seeds–and buy a bus ticket to Blooms. We go to book stores and are dissatisfied with the selection, we press the buttons on the remote and can’t find anything worthwhile to watch, we go to hort society meetings and talk about the new varieties and old times. (Actually we don’t really have to talk about the old times, because those are our times and we’re comfortable there.) If those last sentences define you, GR, it is time to shift gears. All of the above is nothing more than rationalisation and an excuse to live in yesterday’s time. So what to do? By all means, continue with the traditions

and encourage young folk to join your garden clubs–being mindful that they may have slightly differing perspectives–because gardening is and always will be gardening. That said, switch gears to overdrive and take the ramp to the high-speed Internet highway. For starters, search out these two sites: Doug Green’s Garden and Garden Rant. If you’re sloughing off this idea, it’s time to readjust your information paradigm. If you don’t, you’ll be left sitting in a dusty old room, reading dusty old books and thinking dusty old thoughts.

Sports - Campbellford - The campaign to have Campbellford chosen Kraft Hockeyville for 2015 is going much better than expected, says its organizer. It’s developed “a lot more momentum than I ever imagined, which is great,” said Amy-Jo Doherty. She has “a good feeling” that Campbellford will be one of the top ten communities named March 14 when the competition for $100,000 in arena upgrades and the title of Kraft Hockeyville enters the voting phase. The two entries to receive the most votes will go head to head in a second round of voting beginning March 28 and ending March 30. Nominations closed February with

the Campbellford-Seymour Community Centre receiving 30 of the 1,037 nominations submitted. Only two other communities across Canada received more, Doherty said Support for the local campaign continues to build, with the number of online posts and Twitter messages backing Campbellford’s bid having reached almost 1,000, as of February 13. “It’s unbelievable,” Doherty said. To keep the momentum going, a fun contest will be held this Saturday at the arena during an Atom/Peewee tournament in which the eight teams taking part will be challenged to see what they can build out of boxes of Kraft Dinner and JELL-O in 20 minutes.

Get your seedlings now and be ready when the snow melts

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Lower Trent Conservation still has 3,700 seedlings to sell out of a total 15,000. “We are continuing to accept orders for the 2015 spring tree planting season,” says CAO Glenda Rodgers.

Species still available include white cedar, spruce and pine, butternut and burr oak. Trees can be ordered online, <www.ltc.on.ca>, or by contacting Ewa, the Ecology and Stewardship specialist at 613-3943915 extension 252.

20, 21 at Batawa Ski Hill. “There are only two of 40 spaces left for classes,” she says. The Hastings and Prince Edward Counties Health Unit has joined the organizing committee which includes Lower Trent Conservation,

Hastings Prince Edward District School Board, Algonquin Lakeshore Catholic District School Board, Bay of Quinte Remedial Action Plan, Quinte Conservation and Batawa Ski Hill. This is a two-day environmental educational event.

Their efforts will be posted on Facebook and the donated goods will be turned over to the Fare Share Food Bank the following week. Sharpe’s Market will have a Kraft Hockeyville display in its store where people can take pictures as well to post on Facebook (Campbellford4KraftHockeyville), Twitter and Instagram. There’s also a video on YouTube, featuring local musician Ken Tizzard’s song, This Town of Mine, released three years ago. It contains photos people have submitted to the Campbellford committee’s Facebook page. Doherty is encouraging people to use hashtag, #KHV_ice4cford, to continue to beat the drum for the town’s bid, and to leave “comments about why we should be Hockeyville” on the competition’s nomination page, <www.khv2015.ca/en>. The grand prize includes hosting an

NHL pre-season game in addition to being named Kraft Hockeyville and receiving $100,000 for arena upgrades. The community that finishes second will receive $100,000 for upgrades as well, while the remaining eight prize winners will be given $25,000 apiece. Plans are being made for “a massive community event” at the arena March 14. Doherty said a big screen will show live the announcement of the top ten communities, which will take place during the first intermission of Hockey Night in Canada. The free event will run from 6 to 8 p.m., to be followed by a dance hosted by the Campbellford Rebels at 9 p.m. “This is about bringing our community together,” said Doherty, who’s “amazed” by the support residents and users of the arena have shown to date, along with people living as far away as Texas and Europe sharing the town’s story. “It’s exciting,” she said.

Coyote researcher attracts capacity crowd

News - Ivanhoe - Coyotes can attract a lot of attention and organizers of this year’s Winter Speaker Series can attest to that after a standing-room-only crowd filled the Huntingdon Veterans Hall to hear a presentation by PhD candidate Tyler Wheeldon last week. Wheeldon has spent three years conducting research in Prince Edward County, studying coyote behaviour, morphology, diet, DNA and populations to explain why the animals are so adaptable, persistent and widespread. Using live trapping methods to affix radio collars to nearly 150 animals, as well as using carcass collection, stomach content analysis and scat sampling, hundreds of individual animals were studied as part of his doctoral work. That research, Wheeldon says, has now resulted in some preliminary findings but further studies are needed before any conclusions can be reached. There were several reasons for selecting Prince Edward County as the location for the study, he explains, but convenience and timing, the obvious presence of the animals, concerns of livestock predation and a range of available food sources were

among the considerations. The animals are pervasive, he notes, but data collected in a limited area will reflect general patterns in other locations. Coyotes studied were primarily younger animals, he says, with the vast majority being four years old or less. However, two animals encountered in the course of the work were known to be 12 and 13, although Wheeldon admitted finding animals that old came as a surprise to researchers. Studies revealed that 85 per cent of coyote deaths are caused by humans with shooting accounting for the cause of 55 per cent. About 13 per cent of the dead animals studied were killed by vehicles with a similar number killed in traps. About nine per cent died from natural causes, he says, including illness and starvation. But despite sometimes intensive harvesting by humans, coyote populations tend to remain stable, he says. And part of that comes from their adaptability. Where diet is concerned, Wheeldon explains, coyotes are opportunists and will eat whatever is readily available. Describing them as “not an overly large animal,� those studied in Prince Edward County were generally less than 20 kilograms and after a “very complicated�

genetic analysis were determined to have similar combinations of coyote, eastern wolf and dog genes. One animal carcass recovered did weigh in at over 50 pounds (23 kilograms), Wheeldon says, but it also contained six pounds (2.7 kilograms) of undigested chicken. That particular coyote, he suggests, was probably quite sluggish when it was hit and killed by a vehicle in front of a chicken farm. Depending on the time of year, Wheeldon says diets varied but included elements of fruit and vegetables, natural prey, livestock, dead stock, road kill and household garbage. Natural prey, in summer and fall accounting for about 40 per cent of diet, was made up primarily of small rodents, including beavers, with livestock spiking at that time of year to about 30 per cent. Apples were also a common fall supplement, he says, noting, “we found apple seeds in a lot of the scat.� Wheeldon also discussed the animals’ social behaviour and offered advice on how not to attract these dietary opportunists to a regular food source. Hastings Stewardship Council Co-ordinator Matt Caruana says the series has been very well attended this year and continues with an upcoming visit from Mike

Burrell, Ontario Important Bird Areas Co-ordinator Janet Foster (March 19) and geologist Pam Sangfor Bird Studies Canada, on March 5 at 7 p.m. ster (April 2) who will be the final presenter in the Future speakers include filmmakers John and series. Admission is $5 per person.
