TMH rally attracts good crowd By Joyce Cassin

News - Quinte West - After listening respectfully to local politicians, and representatives from the Local Health Integration Network, Our TMH, Ontario Health Coalition, etc., the residents in attendance at the rally interested in saving Trenton Memorial Hospital got down to their concerns. A recent announcement by MPP Lou Rinaldi, that the province was going to kick in $3.5 million to Quinte Health Care to help tide them over was well-received, but hot on the heels of that announcement, came another that had residents and some hospital staff up in arms. TMH is losing 20 registered nurses, to be replaced by 25 registered practical nurses and personal support workers. One speaker provided clar-

ity, saying there are “vacant” positions currently, but that vacant doesn’t mean no one is doing these jobs. “These vacant positions that they are cancelling have been filled with part-time [staff],” said Angie Stott, from the QHC Local of the Ontario Nurses Association. “They have been filled by what we call the transitional pool, from our last round of layoffs. Rinaldi said the new hires would be comprised of 15 full-time and 10 part-time staff. People in attendance at the rally spoke out against losing RNs, but Stuart Wright, a QHC board member said Saturday afternoon, that the ratio in Ontario is supposed to be 60:40, while QHC is sitting at 70:30. “We’re on our way toward that,” he said.

Measles not a big deal here By Jack Evans

News - Belleville - When it comes to current news about measles, especially in the Quinte area, the reaction by Hastings and Prince Edward Counties Health Unit officials is the equivalent of Scrooge’s famous “Bah! Humbug!� Dr. Richard Schabas, Medical Office of Health noted there has not been one single case reported in this jurisdiction. He also suggested some media coverage, especially by major media, is blown away out of proportion. Fifty years ago during normal measles season it was not unusual for the Quinte area alone to generate some “1,000 cases a day,� representing the tremendous infection power of the disease. By those standards, even Ontario’s total of around 20 is a minimal amount. He attributed the region’s anti-measles success to active vaccination programs plus rigid monitoring of exemptions for school students. But he cautioned that measles remains a serious concern, especially for anyone traveling to foreign countries. They should make sure their vaccinations and booster shots are in place.

Proper storage of vaccines such as measles was also reviewed for board members by staffer Bill Sherlock who said all refrigerator units used for storing the materials are monitored and inspected regularly to ensure safe and effective temperatures. In another report, Roberto Almeida, tobacco control manager, reported on significant changes to Ontario’s Smoke Free legislation now in effect which includes no smoking on patios or within prescribed distances of play or sports areas. The bans also include electronic cigarettes which fall under the same sales regulations as regular cigarettes–no one under 19 legally able to purchase. Board members were also assured that the target date to commence moving into the new office complex remains at March 20. Dr. Schabas added that local OPP have been granted permission to use the old building for demolition training purposes so the board will save some money in having it removed to allow for parking areas. The move will also salvage as much equipment from the old building as possible.

Fire in Queen Street building causes damage News - Belleville - A fire at a Queen Street residence on Tuesday, March 4, caused an estimated $50,000 in damages, but fortunately, no one was injured in the blaze. At 1:24 p.m. the Belleville Fire Department received a 911 call reporting smoke in a building on Queen Street. Upon arrival, firefighters from Stations 1 and 2 discovered heavy smoke on the second level of the east end residence. Under the command of Acting

Captain Jeff Keays, an aggressive interior attack and search of the building was conducted. The fire was found to be in an upstairs bedroom and was quickly brought under control with minimal water damage. The fire was contained to the one room and the second floor has suffered some heat and smoke damage. Victim services were called to assist the occupants of the residence and an investigation into the cause of the fire was launched.

News - Belleville - What’s that saying: if you can’t take the heat get out of the kitchen? It was probably on the minds of students who competed in the Junior Iron Chef competition by Loyalist College last week. The event is similar to cookingthemed reality TV shows, such as Iron Chef. Teams of students are asked to make a gourmet meal out of specific ingredients, on a strict deadline, not something that’s easy to do in a hot, busy kitchen, especially when there’s the added pressure of a film crew present. A qualifying round was held by the college a couple of weeks ago. The two teams that advanced to the finals, Kingston’s LaSalle Secondary School and Picton’s Prince Edward Collegiate Institute, competed in a championship round on Saturday, March 8. (PECI won.) The competition is run by Loyalist College second-year Culinary Management students, as part of an event management course. The high school students who compete learn what college culinary students are starting to experience first-hand: that a busy kitchen can sometimes become a

pressure cooker. “Lots of people can cook,” said Mike Labossiere, one of the students running the competition. “But not everyone can handle that pressure on you.” On the bright side, Labossiere said, the Iron Chef competition allows high school students to get a taste of the culinary program and it allows the college students an opportunity to learn more about event management.
They have to raise funds to stage the event, as money is needed to purchase ingredients. They also need to solicit donations. During the final round, the two high school teams were asked to make a pork meal, as the Ontario Pork Producers were a sponsor. The students were also asked to make appetizers or sides out of corn, squash and beans, in keeping with a traditional First Nations theme. The students worked from 10 a.m. until noon to make the meals. They were then served to a panel of three judges, which included Loyalist Culinary graduate Andrew Frederick, the chef at Occasions by the Bay.

As the students cooked, family and friends watched the work on a television in the Loyalist College cafeteria. The event was being live streamed by Loyalist Television and New Media production students. It all made for a dramatic atmosphere and students worked at a frantic pace from a small kitchen, with LaSalle students on one side and PECI students on the other. Labossiere said it had the feeling of a busy restaurant kitchen, similar to the ones many culinary graduates could end up working in. “If you get into a busy kitchen, it can be challenging,” he said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The real reason they want to close TMH they were playing fast and loose with the province’s finances long before the recession. The more money that is wasted, the less money for needed programs and healthcare. Here are a few to think about. Relocation of two gas plants to save two Liberal seats, $1 billion and counting. Wind and solar energy can’t pay for itself so we subsidize it to the tune of $1.2 billion a year. The sweetheart deal at Samsung, a sole source contract worth $7 billion and nobody even tried to get a better deal or have it done in Canada (perish the thought that we should actually create jobs here; ehealth another $1 billion wasted; smart meters … $2 billion and they don’t work properly; overspending at the Pan Am games didn’t include $800 million for the athletes village in a budget of $1.4 billion, and lets not forget Ornge where public money was misappropriated and approximately 20 senior people were terminated (apparently the rot ran deep at Ornge), and

finally the auditor general for Ontario says that the financing of infrastructure projects through private/public partnerships will cost us $8 billion dollars more than if we had just publicly funded them. These are big numbers, and they are only a select few, but let’s move onto the Sunshine List, people earning in excess of $100,000 per year. In 2003, when the Liberals took over, there were 12,000 on this list. In 2014, there were 88,000 and still growing. The leader of the pack is the CEO at Ontario Power Generation at $1.71 million per year. The CEO at University Healthcare is paid around $800,000. The LHINs cost us between $75 and $100 million and serve no purpose. My understanding is they “coordinate.” Ontario is broke. We are deeply in debt and we are rapidly becoming like Greece. When the recession hit, instead of doing what you or I did, cut back our spending etc., these guys increased taxes and spent

even more. This government is currently under several criminal investigations for wrongdoing. I find this intolerable and unacceptable. Our TMH needs to be funded properly and as a taxpayer, I am righteously offended at the aforementioned waste and apparent disregard for public funds. The $3

million that was given to QHC was akin to throwing a puppy a bone. We don’t want table scraps thank you, we want our hospital funded properly. I would encourage Lou Rinaldi to rise in the house at Queens Park and tell his colleagues that what they are doing is wrong and is not working. He knows it, they

know it, so do something about it. Sadly if he did that, he would be banished so far into the back benches, that we would never hear from him again. So much for the Liberal definition of democracy. Andy Axhorn, Trenton

We need to help ourselves when it comes to our hospital Dear Editor, I attended the TMH rally March 7 and was surprised at how many vacant seats there were in the auditorium. Apathy is certainly not going to help us. No matter what meetings I attend, re: the preservation of TMH, all I hear and see are the big-wigs scratching their heads and moaning there is no more money and the only solution is to cut and slash. Any moron can do this and they certainly don’t deserve a six-figure salary. I am not entirely convinced that this is so, but assuming it is, why don’t we pull our heads out

S

of the sand and get on with reality. If all the province is prepared to fund is less than the amount needed to operate, local hospitals are never going to be able to sustain a viable operation. You are not going to fill a five-litre jug with only four litres. We are trapped into believing there is no other means to keep our hospitals running but a pitiful provincial dole out. We are behaving like beggars with cups in our hands. Time to take control of our destiny and raise additional funds

Dear Editor, Ontario has the lowest funding per capita in the country $1372 versus $2510 for Newfoundland. Clearly this is the result of a desperate government trying to balance its budget on the back of the healthcare system. As they continue to cut, as they surely will, at some point it will become unsustainable and will lead to eventual collapse. Shortly after coming to power on a promise not to raise taxes, this Liberal government whacked everyone with the single largest tax grab in Ontario history, the health tax, and de-listed optometry, chiropractic and physiotherapy the very same day. In 2003 they inherited a $132 billion debt, which in 11 years, they managed to run up to $300 billion. This debt is now almost 40 per cent of our gross domestic product and is increasing at the rate of one billion per month. Why is this happening? Apparently no one is watching the ball and contrary to the “political spin,” it has nothing to do with the recession,

that will go directly back into those institutions most threatened, our local community hospitals. Many, many other medical institutions in our province have active, thriving fundraising initiatives, which more than adequately augment provincial handouts and allow them the independence to run themselves without the interference of multi-tiered administrative levels which have no understanding of local community concerns and place most of their fiscal resources in the larger, distant centres. Some of these alternative funding schemes are practised by the Heart Institute in Ottawa, CHEO in Ottawa, the Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto. While we do not have the resources to raise funds on such a grand scale, we certainly could raise initiatives to supplement the meagre provincial funding provided us. These initiatives would have to be well planned, structured and organized in a timely manner. They could be in the form of telethons, walkathons, golf tournaments, and lotteries. The prizes which could be in the form that would be most welcomed by the populace like free groceries for a year, free heating oil for a year, free hydro for a year; the possibilities are endless. Only takes a little brainstorming and out-ofthe-box thinking. It would be a winwin solution for all. Local hospitals would be preserved and full operations sustained, we would not be at constant loggerheads with our elected officials, and the general populace might get a little financial relief they so desperately need in these economically hard times.

Arena LED retrofit gets incentive cheques for energy savings

Bob Forder reported on capital project updates for the city. Photo: Kate Everson By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - The LED light conversion of the arenas is complete and the city has received an incentive cheque from SaveOnEnergy for almost $10,000. “We have also received our incentive from Scotiabank who are supporting arenas across Canada,” reported Bob Forder, manager of building and facilities to the Corporate and Financial Services committee. “The incentive amounted to $13,200

which consisted of $4,000 for Dr. McMullen arena, $5,000 for Duncan McDonald and $4,200 for Lawrence Cuculuzzi arena.” The total contract was worth $153,000, so the total after incentives was $129,810. The total budgeted amount was $225,000, and the city saved $95,189. “It was a successful project,” Forder said. “We are under budget.” Forder also reported that the Frankford arena solar project has resulted in $6,520 in total money generated from January 1 to February 24, 2015. Snow coverage has stopped all generation since the last report. A plan for installation of a jump harness for the Trenton Figure Skating Club in the Duncan McDonald arena is now under way with Greer Galloway working on the engineering. “The Trenton Figure Skating Club has confirmed that Skate Canada will cover the club for the use of the skate harness and will provide the city with a copy of the coverage,” he added. Mayor Jim Harrison commented, “The harness is up tonight for the hockey game and Freddy will use it after the first period.” Forder reported that the Bayside water treatment plant solar roof is advancing and studies have been completed. He added that the Trent Port Marina work is slower than expected because of the cold weather

Natalie Mehra, executive director with the Ontario Health Coalition, said she was thrilled to see the 400 or more people there. “You are the heroes of your community,” she said. She applauded them for fighting for their right to have access to the same health care as in larger centres. “I have never seen cuts of this sort before,” she said, “It amounts to dismantling public hospitals as we know it.” She said cuts originally went to reduce administration, but that has changed, and funding has not even kept pace with even basic inflation.

in February but they are still predicting completion by the end of May with an opening by the long weekend. Several projects have had purchase orders issued to complete the work through CIMCO as the source supplier. This includes a four-cylinder compressor for Frankford arena, and a six-cylinder compressor for Trenton Pad 2. In addition, the city has made an application to SaveOnEnergy for the installation of a Seasonal Controller that will have the potential to receive an incentive of $5,591.

“We also expect to save an additional $5,326 on energy each year with the controller in place,” he said. “It’s a good rebate and a good quality of ice.” Mayor Jim Harrison noted that the addition of a hand dryer in the men’s washroom has reduced the number of paper towels all over the floor. “It’s fast and it’s good,” he said. Forder added that all trades, such as CIMCO, have commented that their arenas are the cleanest and most well organized of any they have seen.

Heartfit Respite to apply for funding By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - An organization called Heartfit Respite is hoping the city will endorse it for an application to the Kay Stafford Fund. “They own property on Frankford Road in Wallbridge,” noted Mayor Jim Harrison. “They do therapy for Down Syndrome children.” He said they needed the city to support their application for the Kay Stafford Fund as an interim process until they get their charitable status. David Clazie, director of finance, noted that the money would go directly to the organization, not through the city. The deadline for the application is March 31 and they were not sure their status would be received in time. A letter was sent to the city by director Cristina Milner from Heartfit Respite. The

Corporate and Financial Services Committee supported the recommendation to approve it. By acting as an intermediary organization the city would be ensuring they are legitimate. “In brief, Heartfit Respite is an 80-acre property offering camp experiences to persons with intellectual disabilities,” city clerk Kevin Heath noted. “It is a farm type environment with animals, arts and crafts promoting independence under professional staff. They are seeking to make application under the Kay Stafford Fund in the amount of $8,000 to utilize as part of their bursary fund.” More information is on their website at <www. heartfitrespite.com> or on Facebook at Heartfit Farm Holiday Respite. The location is 1398 Frankford Road, Quinte West, phone 613-968-2428.

OPINION

Islamic State: The worst case contingency

Editorial - It’s often a good idea, when faced with a really frightening situation, to model the worst-case outcome and see how bad it could get. That can be quite bad, but it’s rarely as bad as the half-formed Gwynne Dyer fears that build up if you don’t actually analyse the problem. Like Islamic State, for example. It began with the conquest by an Islamist group called ISIS (Islamic State in Iraq and Syria) of various bits of territory in eastern Syria in 2011-13. Its founders were almost all Iraqis who had got their start fighting the American occupation of their country. They were allegedly in Syria as volunteers in the struggle to overthrow Bashar al-Assad’s dictatorship, but they actually spent their time conquering territory held by other rebel groups. Once ISIS had created a territorial base in eastern Syria, its fighters surged back across the border into Iraq in June 2014 and captured Mosul, Iraq’s third-largest city. First the Iraqi army and then the much better respected Kurdish army crumbled in front of them. In July, ISIS declared the border abolished and proclaimed the foundation of the Islamic State in the conquered parts of both Syria and Iraq. A few days later the leader of ISIS, Abu Baqr al-Baghdadi, declared in a sermon in Mosul’s great mosque of al-Nuri that he is the caliph to whom all Muslims owe obedience. It was a bold step as there has been no caliph since 1924 but it had great resonance among those many Muslims who linked the collapse of the Islamic world’s power and prosperity to the neglect of its traditional religious institutions and values. Moreover, it is collecting pledges of allegiance from like-minded Islamist fighting groups in other Muslim countries, each of which lends a little more credibility to its claim to be the new caliphate. The first wave of pledges came in November, when Islamist groups in Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Yemen and Saudi Arabia declared that they acknowledged al-Baghdadi, now calling himself Caliph Ibrahim, as their leader and guide. Little more has been heard from the Ye-

meni, Saudi and Algerian groups, but the Egyptian group, Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis, controls parts of the Sinai peninsula, regularly attacks the Egyptian army, and was officially designated a province (wilayat) of the Islamic State in November. Libya, where Islamist groups have been gaining ground in the civil war, was carved into three further provinces at the same time. In late January a former commander of the Pakistani Taliban and ten other jihadi leaders from Pakistan and Afghanistan also acknowledged al-Baghdadi’s authority, and declared that they constituted the new IS province of Khorasan, taking in those two countries and other nearby lands. Then last Saturday Abubakar Shekau, the leader of the militant group Boko Haram, which controls much of northeastern Nigeria, also pledged allegiance to Islamic State: We announce our allegiance to the caliph... and will hear and obey in times of difficulty and prosperity. We call on Muslims everywhere to pledge allegiance to the caliph. It’s definitely catching on, but how far can it go? Well, not much further, probably. It is striking that all the new provinces of Islamic State, like most of the original ones, are in mainly rural areas, often sparsely populated, and with few natural resources (except some oil, in Libya’s case). They are areas that corrupt and autocratic governments, many of them distracted by civil war, will simply abandon for the short term as not worth bothering about. For Islamic State to seize big metropolitan areas and their resources would require a level of popular support in those areas that is unlikely to emerge. Big cities are full of relatively sophisticated people with something to lose, and are unlikely to see Islamic State as an attractive solution for their problems. Without the big cities and their communications facilities, airports, harbours, major highways (which usually go through the cities) and the like there can be little effective cooperation between the widely dispersed provinces of Islamic State. They will have to go on fighting their own wars with little outside help, and some they will lose. The broader struggle against Islamist extremism will probably continue for at least a decade, and impose heavy costs on the people of the Middle East. But ultra-radical organisations like ISIS and Boko Haram are likely to break up in bitter theological disputes a lot quicker than that.

Renewed recycling initiative could start with the coffee pod By Lewis Zandbergen Editorial - We drink quite a bit of coffee at home and we enjoy the convenience of the single cup brewing system; we still have the one we purchased about five years ago. It wasn’t long after we began using it that we discovered the cute little pre-made cups weren’t in any way recyclable. Even though we removed the coffee grounds to enhance our compost pile, the rest of the pre-packaged convenience (fused foil and/or plastic) couldn’t be separated and ended up in the garbage. We decided instead to employ the reusable coffee filters available for these machines (at least someone was thinking). We have the convenience of single cup brewing without having to deal with just one more item headed for landfill. Although many would chime in here and say go buy a percolator, coffee three hours old doesn’t taste quite as good. Programmed recycling in this area has been around for almost the past three decades and worldwide since time immemorial; evidence suggests the Romans recycled the metals used to mint coins. Considering the amount of time and materials used in crafting anything new throughout history, it made perfect sense to reuse once-processed goods again and again. During wars all sorts of items were collected for recycling, from scrap metal to rags and even bones. Throughout history we have always recycled in some fashion: I can remember collecting pop and milk bottles to take back to the store for “spending money”: that was recycling. Getting back to the coffee …. Single cup brewers have been around since the early 1990s (recycling programs were already in place) and you’d think one of the first responsibilities of the manufacturer would be to ensure their product was totally recyclable. According to news sources, the man who invented the single use coffee brewing system now regrets his invention. Even at the time of its debut on the consumer scene, environmentalists were already complaining; now, worldwide, billions of these seemingly innocuous little pods make their way into landfill sites. Go ahead; collect a few dozen of these things and you’ll see why it’s so troubling. Its invention was just over two decades ago but there is a tiny, itty bitty, teensy speck of good news: the premier manufacturer of the system is promising to make the single use pods completely biodegradable; but, get this, it will take five more years. Yep, they say by 2020 the pods will be recyclable. That is totally unacceptable and the manufacturer Distribution Inquiries 613-966-2034 ext 512 Sales Manager Melissa Hudgin 613-966-2034, ext 504 ADVERTISING SALES Norah Nelson, 613-966-2034, ext 501 Mark Norris, 613-966-2034, ext 506 Susan St.Hilaire, 613-966-2034, ext 518 CLASSIFIEDS Heather Naish, 613-966-2034, ext 560 hnaish@theemc.ca 1-888-Words Ads

should be compelled to accept all the used pods at their cost; boxes of them should be sent to the manufacturer postage free. They’ve enjoyed immense success and have no doubt made the company millions, but it’s still going to take five more years before they can recycle the pods? C’mon. So what does this have to do with recycling on the large scale? It’s a symptom of the ease with which we embrace an easier lifestyle often because big companies decide how to package their goods. We’ve gone from collecting the pop bottles to simply ridding ourselves of anything (roadside litter) we don’t want or need anymore and that’s just plain wrong. I’m a huge fan of recycling. I abhor the sight of paper coffee cups and boxboard clamshells littering our roadsides. Yes, there are still people who just can’t grasp the idea of bringing the fast food detritus home and separating the garbage from reusable stuff for the blue boxes. It’s so much easier to just toss it out the car window; someone else will pick it up seems to be the litterer’s governing thought. But recycling still has a long way to go even though a large part of the population faithfully carries blue boxes to the curb. Although the rules vary wildly in southern Ontario, to the best of my knowledge, there are no programs in place to deal with styrofoam because apparently there’s no market for the stuff. Stockpile it and wait for a market to develop seems to be the rationale. And why aren’t our medication bottles recyclable (one source says they are, another says they’re not) but the recycling triangles on the bottoms of those medication bottles carry the numbers they use in the local program. Either way, it seems the onus is always on the consumer to make sure the stuff that finds its way into our homes is properly directed when its useful life has come to an end. And in a world striving to be conscious of recycling, manufacturers are still bombarding us with copious amounts of all sorts of un-recyclable material. There’s the overpackaging of everything from chewing gum to kids’ toys. After Christmas mountains of plastic were set by the curb everywhere. So, as I reiterate, the onus is on us to make sure we recycle. But it should be on the manufacturers to make sure we are able to recycle their over-the-top packaging. That’s why the single use coffee “pods,” should serve as the symbol of a renewed effort to persuade manufacturers to go green.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Billions wasted that could have gone to TMH hospitals in the province have benefitted from any of the wasted billions of taxpayers’ dollars spent cancelling gas plants, or the wasted millions in the Air Orng Scandal? Or how about the grossly underestimated security costs for the Pan Am Games? Trenton Memorial Hospital deserves better. But is it any surprise that its future is uncertain? This government has FLOORS shown disrespect

No enthusiasm for our flag from the Prime Minister

Dear Editor, Stephen Harper is not about to recognize the 50th anniversary of the birth of our Canadian flag with any enthusiasm. It was referred to as the Pearson flag by the Conservatives of the day. He enthusiastically recognized the War of 1812 and spent more than $28 million promoting a war that happened more than 200 years ago. Harper also apparently doesn’t approve of our Canadian parliamentary system of government based on a speech he gave in 1997 to the Council of National

Policy (CNP) in the US. The CNP is described by the New York Times as a little known group of a few hundred of the most influential conservative leaders in business, politics, academia and religion in the US. The CNP meets secretively three times a year behind closed doors at various locations. In other words, our Canadian Prime Minister dislikes the governance model in Canada, preferring the US Congress over our parliament. A Canadian nationalist he is not. William J. Yeotes, Belleville

Arrest warrants issued in home invasion

News - Belleville - On Thursday, March 5, 2015, members of the Belleville Police Service Criminal Investigation Branch issued warrants of arrest for the two males responsible for the home invasion which took place on March 1, 2015. Jeffery MacDonald, 18, and Allan Joseph Kelleher, 29, both of Belleville, are charged with break and enter to commit robbery, break and enter to commit assault with a weapon, break and enter to commit assault, break and enter to commit mischief under $5,000, two counts of break and enter to commit theft under $5,000, robbery with a weapon, assault with a weapon, assault, mischief under $5,000, forcible

confinement and wearing a disguise in the commission of an offence. Jeffery MacDonald was arrested by police without incident; he was held for a show cause hearing on March 5 at Provincial Court Belleville. Police are actively attempting to locate and arrest Allan Joseph Kelleher. Police are also looking for a smaller vehicle, perhaps a greyish/cream-coloured older style mini-van which may have been used in the commission of the offences. Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Sergeant Brad Lentini of the Criminal Investigations Branch 613-966-0882 Ext 2224 or Quinte Crime Stoppers.

Dear Editor, Quinte residents have recently been filled once again with concern for the future of Trenton Memorial Hospital. Fears abound that 24-hour emergency care may be eliminated as well as other services. It is easy to speculate the “what ifs” when all facts aren’t on the table. It is clear however that after 12 years of majority rule in Ontario, the Liberal party appears to have no real plan for our community hospital. Perhaps the answer lies in a history of fiscal mismanagement. Would TMH and many other

visit.” She said the Trenton centre is one of several MFRCs across the province serving over 19,000 military families of which 56 per cent are children. More than 80 per cent live off the base, in the neighbouring communities. Families share common ground such as relocation, second languages, challenges of frequent absence, high risk jobs, and dealing with injuries and loss.

“We are a local non-profit organization,” she added. “We are not part of DND. We are an independent organization to serve local families. We fundraise and seek grants to support our programs.” These programs include licensed child care, deployment support and transition support. There are seven full-time counsellors for mental health programs. “One of the challenges is

that we are under-funded,” she added. Kleinschmidt said the Quinte region is under-serviced for licensed child-care facilities, and in particular for Special Needs children. She said 27 per cent of their Special Needs children come from Quinte West, 31 per cent from Brighton, 22 per cent from Belleville and 17 per cent from Prince Edward County, compared to a provincial average of 14 per cent. “One of our goals is to strengthen our external partnerships,” she said, adding they would like to open a satellite location in Belleville. Veterans Affairs is sponsoring this pilot program to start in June. She noted that a major fundraiser for the organization is the Invisible Ribbon Gala held every year at the National Air Force Museum of Canada in May. For more information see <www.trentonmfrc.ca> or call 613-965-3575 at 50 Rivers Drive. David McCue asked if the child care is just for families on the base. Kleinschmidt said it is available to all citizens of Quinte West. There are over 230 licensed day care spaces, open five days a week. Duncan Armstrong acknowledged he is “a base brat” and identifies with the needs of the organization. He asked how often families are transferred these days. Kleinschmidt said it varies depending on the occupation, ranging from every two or three years to 20 years. She said she has been posted 25 times.

Dog tags to be transitioned into calendar year By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Dog tags will now reflect the calendar year, starting in January 2017, according to city clerk Kevin Heath. “The intent is to move it into the calendar year,” he told the Corporate and

Financial Services committee. “Now it runs from July 1 to June 30 the following year. This would make it more consistent with city operations, and easier for residents to know it is for that year.” Don Kuntze asked if tags will not be required from June 30 to January 1. Da-

vid Clazie, director of finance, said the tags now are good to the end of 2016. New tags will be issued for January, 2017. Kuntze commented, “There are a lot of dogs out there. What percentage purchase tags? How do you market or

promote this?” Clazie said they have gone door to door in the past and there is enforcement. “We still go door to door, but not every year,” he noted. “We want to ensure every dog has a tag.” Kuntze asked, “Do they know why they have tags? Nobody is buying them.” Mayor Jim Harrison said animal control officer Price Morris is out there and if the dogs are caught without a tag the owner will be fined. Kuntze said they need to send a message to let them know why they have to buy tags and support the program. Doug Whitney commented, “If I had a dog I sure wouldn’t come in here and say I have a dog.” Allison Trumbley, manager of revenue, said they try to promote the program. Harrison added, “A lot more buy tags than used to. We have a lot of activities that involve dogs and cats. Do they have to buy one for a cat now?” Kevin Heath said no. Mike Kotsovos said he went out and bought a dog tag as soon as he moved here. He said the previous tags matched

the fiscal year. Kuntze asked if there are any outlets selling tags so a person does not have to come to city hall. Allison Trumbley said Pet Valu in Trenton does carry them. The city also sends out notices twice a year as a reminder. Chair Karen Sharpe said they have to get the word out. The city takes in about $45,000 a year in dog tag sales. It is anticipated the city would lose about half this amount during the transition period.

Spring clean your batteries News - Quinte Waste Solutions is once again asking residents to recycle spent single-use batteries on their regular blue box collection day between March 16 and 27 only. Specific orange battery recycling bags with instructions printed on them will be hitting mailboxes on March 5. Extra bags will be available at every municipal office in the service area after March 5 for any resident who does not receive a bag. Since starting the curbside battery recycling program in 2013, the entire area has kept over 30,000 pounds of batteries out of landfill by putting them in their provided battery bags for the blue box. “It’s kind of amazing,� says Tanya Delaney, Hazardous and Electronic Waste Operations Supervisor for Quinte Waste Solu-

tions. “We thought we would have started to see a decline in batteries coming in as we have done this about four times in two years, but we’re consistently seeing the same amount every collection. I’m happy residents are disposing of them properly.â€? Batteries that are collected are sent to Raw Materials Company (RMC) in Port Colborne, Ontario. RMC uses a sustainable process that is capable of recovering 100 per cent of each alkaline battery recycled with no materials going to landfill. Up to 92 per cent of each battery is upcycled, which means that the materials are used to displace the use of equivalent virgin materials in the manufacture of new products. The zinc, manganese and potassium are reused as a micronutrient additive in commercial fertil-

izers and the steel is reused in the manufacture of automobiles and appliances. All of the recovered materials are sold back into the marketplace within 300 miles of RMC’s Port Colborne facility. Residents are strongly encouraged to place a small piece of masking tape over the terminals of 6 Volt, 9 Volt, or button-type batteries (often found in watches) to avoid any hazards. Apartment complexes, condominiums and businesses that use 95-gallon carts are not included in this program, however, many buildings are now equipped with battery collection drop-off containers. All residents are encouraged to visit <www.quinterecycling. org> or call 613-394-6266 to find nearby battery-recycling drop-off locations.

Author Terry Fallis leaves audience laughing

By Richard Turtle

Entertainment - Stirling – Those in attendance at a recent author’s visit, featuring Canadian Bestseller Terry Fallis, say the humourist and writer simply has to come back. The well-known author of multiple national bestsellers held an attentive crowd spellbound last Wednesday evening, “with

plotlines and true life experiences while writing his novel, No Relation,� says organizer and Stirling-Rawdon Chief Librarian Sue Winfield. It is a book the writer describes as “a novel about fame, family, identity, corporate espionage and, oh yes, men’s underwear . . .� The well-attended special event was sponsored by the

Stirling-Rawdon Public Library and was held in the Eugene Burrell Hall, located on the second floor of the Stirling Festival Theatre. Fallis, whose ease of delivery throughout his presentation left an impression on Winfield, provided the audience with plenty to think about as he discussed Please see “Author� on page 13

Lehtinens honoured as Guardian Angels at Quinte Children’s Foundation gala By Stephen Petrick

tributes. That list includes the United Way, the Belleville General Hospital Foundation, St. Andrew’s Church, plus several youth sports groups. The list goes on and on. “Well, we really like this community. Belleville has been a great place to raise a family, so it’s been good to us,” said Ed Lehtinen, explaining why he and his wife decide to give back. “The donations are neither here nor there. We’re donating because we’re able to,” he added. Quinte Children’s Foundation Executive Director Connie Reid said the Lehtinens are humble people who may not realize how incredible their work to the community is. “There’s lots of people in our community that do amazing things, but the angels are selected for those individuals that go above and beyond,” she said. She shared a story about how,

a couple of years ago, following the announcement of a previous Guardian Angel, Ed called her office out of the blue and asked to be a sponsor of the gala event. Reid said she was stunned by that generosity because usually such donors have to be solicited; they rarely call the office on their own. “The thing about Ed and Fran is you don’t hear about them; they’re behind the scenes,” Reid said. Ed is a well-known business leader in Belleville. He and Fran moved to the city in 1970 and Ed launched Impacto, a business that produces safety products such shoes, harnesses and gloves. The company has more than 50 trademarks and patents and distributes its product line to businesses around the world. Ed’s still involved in the business today, but he has handed more duties over to his son. But that transition is allowing him to

do more volunteer work. He says he’s looking forward to becoming even more involved in the Quinte Children’s Foundation. “I’ve got a ticket to go to the galas every year now,” he said, with a bit of a laugh. Reid said that while the Lehtinens have not served on the Quinte Children’s Foundation’s board in the past, and have done mostly behind the scenes work for the foundation, they are a perfect selection to be Guardian Angels. Many of the other charities they support, such as the Belleville General Hospital Foundation, have programs for children, so that work benefits the region’s children in an indirect way. Fran and Ed Lehtinen were honoured as Guardian Angels at a gala by the Quinte Children’s Foundation on Saturday, March 7. Photo: Submitted

News - Belleville - If everyone in Quinte had the charitable spirit of Ed and Fran Lehtinen there’s no telling how strong this community would be. The Belleville couple were formally introduced as the Quinte Children’s Foundation’s Guardian Angels at a gala event at the Sears Atrium on Saturday, March 7. The event sold out, as 300 guests attended the event, which had a “Grand” ballroom dancing theme. It helped the Children’s Foundation raise just over $100,000, which will help its mandate of providing programs and services for at-risk children. But a highlight of the night was the crowd’s opportunity to salute the Lehtinens when they were introduced as the 2015 Guardian Angels. The Quinte Children’s Foundation is one charity on a long list to which the couple con-

Cavity Free or Life? F

As you can see, all three keys must be present at the same time in order to get cavities. If you can control any one of these keys, you could be cavity free for life. Bacteria Control

Dr. Brian Ho In previous issues, the topic of discussion has been tooth decay and its causes. We also described three key components to the process of tooth decay. The first of these keys is cavity-causing bacteria and the second key is sugar. We have learned that if you feed the cavity-causing bacteria with sugar, they will eat the sugar and release lactic acid, which will create holes. These holes are what we call cavities.

s $O NOT SHARE SPOONS WITH infants or avoid mouth-tomouth contact for at least two years after the appearance of their first tooth (This is usually around 6 months old). This will allow other non-cavity causing bacteria to grow first so that there won’t be enough room for the bad bacteria to sneak in.

Think of the plaque as a housing complex for the cavitycausing bacteria. In order for these cavity-causing bacteria to create holes in our teeth, they must stay close enough to the tooth surface to cause damage. To accomplish this, bacteria work together to form housings that allows them to remain in close proximity to teeth. We call these complexes plaque.

RN’s reduced, RPNs and PSWs hired to replace staff By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - The numbers are out. The total change at all Quinte Health Care hospitals would be a decrease of 53 Registered Nurse (RN) positions, increase of 12 Registered Practical Nurse (RPNs) and increase of 41 Personal Support Worker (PSWs). This breaks down to Belleville (BGH) a decrease by 31 RN positions, increase by 23 PSW positions and stay the same in the number of RPNs. At Trenton (TMH) would be a decrease by 20 RN positions, increase by 10 RPNs and increase by 15 PSWs. At Picton (PECMH) would be a decrease by one RN position and increase by two RPN and three PSW. In Bancroft (NHH) would be a decrease by two part-time RN positions that are currently vacant. “Meetings between QHC and union leaders from ONA, OPSEU, SEIU and Unifor have

been held,” said Susan Rowe, senior director of communications for Quinte Health Care. “During these meetings, QHC provided detailed information on the proposed changes and how they impact staff at the four hospitals. Union leaders are then given a few weeks to provide suggestions on how the plans could be altered to help minimize the impact to individuals.” If the proposed changes for 2015/2016 are fully implemented, the unions would be given layoff notices for a total of 39 positions. The first step to mitigate the impact on individuals is to extend offers of early exit and retirement packages in the affected areas. These numbers are assuming that all changes move forward as proposed to the unions. They also count both part-time and fulltime positions and some of these positions are already vacant. These proposed changes are

in response to reduced provincial funding for Quinte Health Care. Four years ago, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care implemented a new funding formula to help create a more sustainable health care system and address the provincial deficit situation. Every year, Quinte Health Care must become more efficient and reduce costs in order to operate within the funding they receive and to cover any inflationary increases. QHC has removed $20 million in costs over the past three years to remain financially healthy, while continuing to meet its quality and patient safety goals. “While we support the new funding formula as the right longterm solution for our health care system, we also appreciate that these changes can be extremely difficult for everyone at QHC,” said president and CEO Mary Clare Egberts. “As always, our goal is to manage this as much

as possible through avenues like attrition, retirements and reassignment opportunities where applicable so that we can minimize the number of our valued staff members who need to leave QHC involuntarily.” Key proposed changes include a shift toward a more team-based model of patient care across all QHC hospitals. This means that

Registered Nurses will have a larger role in care planning, discharge planning, patient and family teaching and counselling. Registered Practical Nurses will care for appropriate patients within their level of training and expertise, which includes patients with more complex needs. More Personal Support Workers will be available to help patients

with their activities of daily living and mobility. “This change will mean reduced numbers of RNs in the organization, but patients will receive more direct care hours through the added RPN and PSW support,” Egberts points out. Reduced positions in management and clerical were announced in December.

Children’s Imagination Ball a fundraiser for Quinte West Youth Centre By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - All it takes is a little imagination and a fantastic outfit. You could be a princess, a pirate, a mermaid, a magician, Prince Charming, a fairy, Peter Pan or even a Frozen character! “The Children’s Imagination Ball is a fundraiser for Quinte West Youth Centre,� explains executive director Connie NyeKaley. The event will be held at the Knights of Columbus Hall on

May 8 from 5 to 10 p.m. and is open to families with their children to come and have an amazing time together. “Kids love dress-up events,� Connie adds. “There are not a lot of opportunities to do it. This will help create a magical feeling.� There will be a dinner and dance, a silent auction, face painting, a magician and photographers. The cost is $20 adult and $15 a child. “This is a unique event and the first time we have ever hosted

something like this,� she said. “Hopefully this will become an annual event and will expand each year.� Right now there are five Loyalist College students taking Friday afternoons at the Quinte West Youth Centre as a volunteer placement to plan the event. Jessica Brown, Rebecca Brant, Jessica Brewer, Joshua Partridge and D’Onna Duford are first-year students in the Social Service Worker program. “We are looking for more

know if they have to pay for them all up front. Clazie said that is the policy. “They pay a lot up front,� Reid said. He added that one store in Frankford on the east side of the river does not want to sell bag tags anymore because he does not make any money on it and has to put up the whole cost up front. Don Kuntze said the store owner can buy as many as he wants. He asked if they have to come to city hall to pick them up. Caleb DenOuden, manager of financial services, said the bag tags are delivered to the stores by Frontier Services.

News - Trenton - Parking meters in the downtown take in a lot of money, according to Councillor Keith Reid. But are they worth it? He asked council to look at the cost of hiring bylaw officers as well. “We are trying to encourage people to shop downtown,� he said. “You can go to different places and not have to pay for parking.� David Clazie, director of finance, said the city brings in $140,000 in parking revenues every year. This covers the cost of maintenance and enforcement, plus $25,000 in reserve and $30,000 to offset the tax levy. Doug Whitney commented that if there was free parking downtown the business owners would use up all the spaces in front of their stores. “It’s a known fact,� he said. “There could be 15, 20 or 30 employees using the free spaces.� Keith Reid said, “If I saw that and I 4ABLES #HAIRS s "EDROOMS (OME !CCENTS was the owner, I would fire them.� He said the spaces are there for the RUTTLE BROTHERS FURNITURE convenience of shoppers not employSINCE 1974 ees.

Parking derelict vehicles on trailers is now prohibited

News - Quinte West - The Corporate and Financial Services committee has approved an amendment to the city’s parking bylaw to prohibit the parking of derelict vehicles placed on trailers on municipal road allowances. “Derelict trailers were not in the bylaw,” said chair Karen Sharpe. City clerk Kevin Heath said they are not allowed on municipal roadways. Doug Whitney wanted to know if it

doesn’t have a licence if it is classed as derelict. Heath said if the trailer is plated, it is legitimate. Whitney said “If it has a licence it can stay as long as they like.” Heath said there are other property standards bylaws that would apply. “There have been instances where derelict vehicles have been placed on trailers and parked on municipal roadways resulting in complaints by neighbouring property owners to the city,”

News - Trenton - The 11th annual Invisible Ribbon Gala, hosted by the Trenton Military Family Resource Centre (MFRC), will take place on Saturday, May 9, 2015, and tickets are now available. The Invisible Ribbon Gala is an evening that brings together members of Quinte and the surrounding communities with military leaders to raise funds and awareness for the Trenton MFRC. This year’s theme is “Families First.” The military is more than a job–it is a

lifestyle for the whole family. This lifestyle can consist of frequent relocation, deployments and isolation from extended family and friends. Because of this, we say that military families wear an “Invisible Uniform” for the role they play in supporting Canadian Forces members. The Invisible Ribbon campaign raises awareness about the role of the military family, their unique challenges and resiliencies required in supporting our troops by “wearing the Invisible Uniform.”

By Kate Everson

Heath added. From an enforcement perspective, the city’s bylaw department and the Quinte West OPP are unable to commence any action of enforcement based on the verbiage of the current bylaw. The city received a legal opinion and recommended the change to the bylaw. “Through approving the proposed amendment, bylaw enforcement would be in a better position to enforce such instances as they arise,” Heath said.

The committee also approved a bylaw to regulate and govern salvage shops, salvage yards and automobile wrecking yards. “This bylaw has become dated and certain aspects are difficult to enforce,” Heath explained. One issue with the current bylaw is that it requires a fence to be located at least 60 metres from the nearest limit of the travelled road on every side. Currently there are three salvage yards in

the municipality. If this condition was enforced it would negatively affect these operations. The bylaw would remove the 60 metre limit fencing requirement. A second issue was the timeline the business could lawfully operate. This proved difficult from an enforcement perspective. This section has been removed. Of other note, a definition of impervious surface was added to ensure that all fluids are drained from vehicles on an impervious surface.

Tickets on sale for 11th annual Invisible Ribbon Gala Guests of the Invisible Ribbon Gala will enjoy cocktails and appetizers while mingling with community and business leaders, as well as senior military personnel. There will be a silent and live auction, a delicious dinner and entertainment provided by the live auctioneer and the 8 Wing Band. This year’s Gala is special as there will be two special guests: Captain Jane Foster (retired), one of the first two female fighter pilots in the world since World War II, and T.W. Crossen, a Canadian musician

who has written a powerful song about the military lifestyle that he will debut and perform live at the Gala. All proceeds from this event are dedicated to the support programs and services offered by the Trenton MFRC. The Trenton MFRC is a critical partner in providing a vast array of readily available professional resources toward assisting and enhancing military members and their families’ wellbeing. Tickets for the Invisible Ribbon Gala

can be purchased at the Trenton MFRC, 50 Rivers Drive East, Trenton, reserved online at <www.invisibleribbon.ca>, or by calling 613-965-3575.

Sports - The advent of spring usually means that the Leafs are dusting off their golf bags and curling takes the spotlight with the Scotties, Brier, World Ladies, Men’s and Junior championships. Roy MacGregor, distinguished Canadian author and columnist, in a Globe and Mail piece on February 28, said it’s time to give curling its due as the Cult of Curling sweeps across Canada as our other winter sport. The same week, Tim Hudak, in a Facebook post, said that Ontario’s hydro rates are killing us. Nowhere is this truer than in buildings that rely heavily on hydro to maintain ice surfaces, temperature, and humidity. So while television viewership for the sport is increasing, clubs with steady memberships are losing their budgetary fudge factor in this financial squeeze. The Trenton Curling Club executive decided to relieve the pressure by holding a fundraising dinner and live/silent auction on February 21. Special thanks go to Bert Garrett, who launched this idea, and spearheaded the committee that brought it together. Major sponsors included Living Financial, Raymond James, Wilkinson Financial Services, Kaufmann Law, Bonn Law offices, Ellie Kompch, Van R. Tuckey Davis & Tuckey Law Office, Seasons Dufferin Centre, Aleesha J Camp Professional Corporation, Whitley Insurance and Fi-

Producers rally to save Maple in the County

By Stephen Petrick

News - Carrying Place - There’s a sweet story behind this year’s Maple in the County event. The festival, a March tradition in Prince Edward County to celebrate its maple syrup producers, was run with help from Taste the County for the past ten years. Taste the County was an organization that promoted county agriculture businesses and restaurants. However, when Taste the County folded last year, the people behind Maple in the County refused to give up on their festival, which was coming up on its 14th year. The festival is now run with support from the Prince Edward County Community Development Department and is all set to go for the weekend of March 28 and 29, a time of year when maple trees are usually producing plenty of sap to make maple syrup. A press conference to promote the festival was held Friday, March 6, at Strictly Maple, a business near Carrying Place that’s participating in the event. There, organizers celebrated the fact that the event is soldiering on, with ten participating maple syrup producers on this year’s lineup. “Last year when Taste announced it was closing its doors the first call we got was from Ron [Hubbs, the festival’s planning committee chair],” said Neil Carbone, Prince Edward County’s Director of Community Development. Carbone said the festival is important for several reasons; it signifies the start of the busier tourism season and it’s an economic boost to the region, as it encourages travellers to drive through the county and support local businesses. But it’s also a sign that the worst weather of Producers and supporters of the Maple in the County festival used sap buckets for this photo-op at the Strictly Maple farm in Carrying Place on Friday, March 6. The photo was staged at a press conference the year is over. Please see “Maple” page B3 to promote this year’s festival taking place March 28 and 29. Photo: Stephen Petrick

Curle’s Sugarbush sweetens the pot this year with a new museum By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Sweetening the pot with something new at Curle’s Sugarbush, tools of the trade dating to the 1800s are on display in a new museum on site. The Maple Museum, which occupies 1,000 square feet of the upper level of the Curle family’s former horse barn, was started last spring but this is the first maple syrup season that it will be fully open. “When we were doing renovations here [in the Sugar Shack] we started to realize how many things we have about the place that we’ve actually used in the 45 years of marriage that we’ve been making maple syrup … and Marc, of course, has been doing it longer with his

family,” said his wife Diane Curle. Curle’s Maple Products and Museum tapped into seven generations of family history at a special sesquicentennial celebration held in 2012 on the Curle homestead, and that pride in their tradition is evident in the newly created display of artefacts. From a pot flat pan dating to 1862, to syrup tins on a shelf, to “acknowledging the First Nations contribution of introducing pioneers to syrup,” the museum houses memorabilia and items from days gone by, most of which has been used by past generations of the Curle family. “We used to bring our hay and straw in here,” said Diane as she took this writer on a tour of the museum. Being the fifth generation of Curles, there was plenty on tap to see. “ T h e r e ’s grandad’s buckets … everything

standing still he painted red,” she said with a chuckle. “And there’s an 1880s evaporator that was used.” Today the Curles have a pellet-fired evaporator which they installed recently, which is more efficient and takes up less space. “The museum kind of evolved … so you start out with one piece of equipment and you go on and on. It’s all history that we have lived through and family before us and our part of it,” Diane explained. A large bucket with a motor that operated brushes inside and which was used to clean the sap buckets at the end of the season is in the museum. Tapping tools from the past and syrup decanters collected over the years are also among the museum’s treasurers. Putting the museum together was fun for Diane. “I had been to other museums and I enjoy that kind of thing. This museum is kind of something we’ve actually lived so that’s what makes it a little bit unique.

It’s the Curle family progression. It wasn’t even a thought process it just came together,” she said. “I had an idea that when you put these all together it tells a story.” With the maple syrup season just starting, the Curles will now be busy getting their new product ready so the self-guided tours will be a bonus for visitors. “Most years we are done tapping by now but it’s been so much snow and it’s so cold … we’ll go in now.

four or five days to tap,” said Marc. They expect to have new product available soon but there is still syrup from last year available. “Soon any leftover syrup I start converting into sugar but I held off because the syrup crop is so late coming in,” noted Diane. The Curle’s Sugar Shack is open all year from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information go to: <http:// www.curlesmaple.ca/> or you can find them on Facebook.

News - Campbellford - A registered massage therapist by trade and an animal lover by nature, Jessica Mechetuk will be travelling to New Orleans in the latter role to donate $1,500 to the Villalobos

Rescue Center. It’s a non-profit rescue, rehabilitation and placement facility for abused and abandoned pit bulls, whose founder, Tia Torres, and crew are featured in an American reality television series, Pit Bulls & Parolees, shown on Animal Planet. With “everything they do and the expense of it all, I just figured there’s something I can do,” Mechetuk said. The owner of JEDM Therapies will be delivering more than money to the centre in New Orleans in late April; she and her boyfriend, Kevin Roberts, will be driving down in a vehicle loaded with dog crates and several containers of towels, blankets, leashes and other supplies. They plan to volunteer at the centre while down there. Mechetuk is a long-time fan of the television show which has been on the air for six seasons. She once owned a pit bull until she had to put it down about 11 years ago for health reasons. “She was awesome, the smartest dog I ever had,” she said of the pet she acquired when it was a pup and kept for eight years until spinal disease set in.

Today she owns a pair of boxers. supports. The same is true for a special for $30, and an introductory class in “I love animals,” Mechetuk said, but event she has planned for March 27 when therabands, a low-impact strengthening “dogs have always been number one” on 30-minute massages will be offered technique. her list. Animal abuse disgusts her, it’s no different from abuse of the elderly or children. “It’s all important to me that people treat those who haven’t a voice with respect,” she said. Unfortunately, “it happens too often that it’s not done that way.” Mechetuk stands up for dogs who have been mistreated or abandoned through her Help the Helpless program, which generates funds that assist dog rescues and shelters throughout Ontario and support the pet food bank in Brighton. She also donates to the humane societies in Quinte West and Peterborough. Mechetuk does volunteer work as well, with Homeward Bound and Boxer Rescue, transporting animals, inspecting houses, doing temperament tests on dogs, and interviewing possible adoptive and foster care families over the phone. Mechetuk currently has a draw for a $250 gift basket, with all the proceeds from the sale of $5 tickets to be divided among all the rescues and shelters she

Maple in the County set for end of March

Continued from page B1

“It’s a symbol of the end of winter; it’s a sign that spring is around the corner and I think that’s why everyone comes out,” Carbone said. Hubbs said people involved in Maple in the County were only too happy to step up and resume some of the gritty administrative work needed to make the festival run. He said with Taste of the County no longer running the festival, organizers are trying to put a heavier emphasis on promoting the farms

involved. The committee’s been working for several months to get the festival ready, Hubbs said. He explained the festival works similar to an art tour. Participants are encouraged to pick up a map and travel to the various participating farms to see the products they’re offering over the weekend. “We sell a lot of maple syrup and we sell a lot of value-added products,” Hubbs said. “It’s good for the producers. People always seem to come out

and meet at the farms and the sugar bushes.” The ten participating producers are: Sweetwater Cabin/Hubbs Sugarbush, Fosterholm Farms, Vader’s Maple Syrup, Nyman Farms, Honey Wagon Farms, Sugarbush Vineyards, Waupoos Estates Winery & Sugarbush, Walt’s Sugar Shack, Strictly Maple and Three Dog Winery & Sugarbush. More information on these producers and the festival map are available at <www.mapleinthecouunty.ca>. Section B- Thursday, March 12, 2015 B3

TRAVEL

Cooking in a volcano in Portugal’s Furnas Valley

By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - In last week’s travel piece, I talked about a recent visit to Portugal’s Azores, a group of nine volcanic islands in the Atlantic Ocean. Well, I’ve decided that this week I’ll focus on my favourite day trip I took while on Sao Miguel Island in the Azores. After all, it was to the fascinating Furnas Valley, which positively trembles with thermal activity. Here I walked, on designated boardwalks and footpaths, among the bubbling hot springs, steam, geysers, fumaroles, mud pools, and caldeiras found right in the village of Furnas itself. It’s quite an awesome sight. And there’s the definite smell of sulphur The food is cooked in concrete silos in the hot, sulphurous earth. in the air. A highlight of this trip is the cooking of the visited the nearby Terra Nostra Botanical Park, “cozido” in the hot earth. Potatoes, carrots, with its beautiful hydrangeas, sculptures, and yams, beef, pork, chicken, etc. are all placed water fountains. I even found a nice swimming together in a large pot, and this is lowered into pool in this park, filled with warm mineral wathe ground, where the ingredients of this “Por- ter, and I discovered it was rather refreshing, tuguese stew” are all cooked inside a concrete even though it was a rusty brown colour and silo that is then covered and heaped with dirt. looked rather murky.

area, including the fact that the airport in Ponta Delgada had to be moved because there were too many problems with cows near the flight path. She confided that she certainly enjoyed her life now on Sao Miguel, for she’s an avid cyclist and hiker, and this area offers several “wonderful hiking trails” and some “great offroad mountain biking routes.” She further told me that many Azoreans have migrated, over the years, to the Toronto and Vancouver areas, and many of them regularly return “home” in May for the major religious festival, the “Festival of the Christ of Miracles,” which is always held on the fifth Sunday after Easter. She said, “This is the toughest time of the year to find hotel ac-

commodations, for the islands are particularly busy.” I visited Sao Miguel Island and did this Furnas tour back in February, when the cold and snow were playing havoc back here in Canada. It was also the winter season in Europe, but it was a rather pleasant 15C there (“windbreaker weather”). However, I’d think that May or June would be an even better time to visit the Azores, for it would be warmer then, at the peak of their whale-watching season, and the plentiful hedges of hydrangeas that act as fences and barriers would be in full bloom.

Honourable Mention: Dania MaderaLerman, Havelock, for her watercolour “Blues”; Judy Hopkins, Baltimore, for her acrylic on canvas “Rooster Study”; and Diane Arsenault, Grafton, for her acrylic on canvas “Japonica Aquilegia.”

The Best Photograph award, sponsored by The Holmestead: Print and Business Services, was won by Brian Tyson of Hastings for “Milk Truck.” “The image drew me in from the moment I looked at it: the complexity of the image made up of textures, shiny surfaces, lines, the orthogonal lines drawing us in to the centre where a milk truck awaits us, with the driver’s foot hanging over the open window ledge, the cartoon of a cow … all punctuated by a dramatic and looming sky. I kept on wanting to look at it and explore more and more,” said Browne. Honourable Mention: Mary Weilandt of Warkworth for “Glass.” The fourth and final category Best 3D or Mixed Media, sponsored by Warkworth Remedy’s Rx, was won by Suzanne Towns of Campbellford for her fibre art “Untitled.” “The first thing I noticed was its tactile quality. I wanted to touch it, explore its surfaces, the layers of felting all combining to create a wonderful blob of organic matter. The colours, the material, the holes, the scrunching of the material, the playfulness of the form contribute to a fabulous piece of sculpture,” said Browne. Honourable Mention: Rob Cochrane of Roseneath for his serpentine stone carving “Orca.”

Keeping track of bird migrations By Richard Turtle

News - Ivanhoe - Mike Burrell has spent a lot of time watching birds, and after years of formal study, he says there is a lot to be learned from their behaviour. Burrell spoke to a packed house last week at the Huntingdon Veterans Memorial Hall, explaining how ordinary citizens can participate in a variety of programs that involve bird enthusiasts from around the world. The talk was the third in this season’s well-attended Winter Speaker Series and, explained Hastings Stewardship Council representative Jim Pedersen, the information sessions that touch on a range of topics, are intended “to help us all be better stewards of the land.” Upcoming presentations include John and Janet Foster’s Stories From the Wild on March 19, and Pam Sangster and Daniel Tubb’s geology and mining talk scheduled for April 2. But last week it was all about the birds. Burrell, who works as the Important Bird Areas Co-ordinator for Bird Studies Canada, admits he has the perfect job for someone whose interest in bird watching began in public school. “I don’t see how you couldn’t be interested in birds,” he told the crowd of more than 100, the vast majority of whom didn’t consider them-

selves birders when asked for a show of hands. But when asked how many maintained feeders, or paid particular attention to the presence of birds around their homes, the number of hands increased dramatically. In his talk, Burrell discussed his work with Bird Studies Canada, studying migratory patterns and nesting and feeding behaviours, as well as his vacation time spent doing much the same. A recent trip to Ecuador, where the population of Canadian warblers was at a seasonal high, was particularly memorable, he says. A species at risk, he says the Canadian warbler is represented in the Bird Studies logo and is one of many he considers to be a favourite. But his list of favourites was a long one and Burrell has been busily encouraging others to appreciate the avian life around them. “All of you are potential scientists,” he said, noting there are various Bird Studies Canada sanctioned programs that are open to the general public. And the data being collected as a result of numerous initiatives around the world, he says, has greatly increased our understanding of bird populations and risk factors involved in the various migrations. By studying birds, and maintaining ongoing programs to track their numbers, trends and behaviours, he adds, the

results can often serve as indicators for the rest of the environment. It is through programs such as the Christmas Bird Count and Project FeederWatch that individuals can report their own findings and download them into databases on the Internet. Using maps and graphs during his presentation, Burrell noted that there are several sites nearby that are of international significance because of the role they play in migratory patterns. And many of those share common characteristics that make them particularly appealing as resting places for species in transit. A resident of Kingston, who also works at the Bird Studies offices in Port Rowan, Burrell says many birding enthusiasts are familiar with Napanee, Presqu’ile and other locations in and around Prince Edward County because of the prevalence of a variety of species at different times of year. Through its educational and stewardship programs, Burrell says, Bird Studies is seeing a significant increase in reporting and that is helping volunteers and members make a difference for Canada’s birds. Further information about Bird Studies Canada, membership and the programs offered, is available on the Internet at <www. Mike Burrell provided some insight into the behaviour of various bird species and what can be learned by studying them around the year in the various locations they inhabit. The Bird Studies Canada representative was the third prebirdscanada.org>. senter in the Winter Speaker Series hosted by the Hastings Stewardship Council.

Napanee singer takes second round of talent search By Bill Freeman

The young singer released her ďŹ rst single Try last summer and is establishing herself on the regional musical scene that included an appearance in Havelock during last summer’s Canada Day celebrations. Her performance in Bethany “captivated the whole buildingâ€? and her “energetic stage presence, sweet charm and old soul voiceâ€? pushed her above the four performers who opened the talent show. “It was a challenging night for the judges,â€? said Jane Doidge of the Ranch Resort. “Each of the groups delivered solid and strong performances. The audience even had a hard time choosing an overall handsdown favourite.â€? 2
