Trenton Figure Skating Club gets $500 from city By Kate Everson

Officials concerned about conditions.

News – Quinte West – Council has changed its mind about donating ice time for the Trenton Figure Skating Club's carnival. “We need to take $500 off their ice bill,” Councillor Doug Whitney said. Councillor Leslie Roseblade said she had received an email from the club after the city had refused its request. “They clariﬁed the ice time,” she said. “They only

use two hours for the carnival but get charged for six hours of ice time.” She felt the club should only get charged for the hours they skate. Councillor Paul Kyte agreed. “This is an investment in youth,” he said. Councillor Terry Cassidy was concerned with the process. “We didn't deal with it very well,” he said. “Cor-

News – Quinte West – The second stage of the Brookshire Meadows subdivision on 2nd Dug Hill Road has won the approval of the Planning Advisory Committee. Phase 2 entails 34 lots of single detached residential lots and three residential blocks for freehold town homes. “The development is ready to move forward,” said Brian Jardine, director of planning and development. Councillor Jim Alyea said three callers have expressed concerns to him about the proposed subdivision. “There was some concern with noise,” Alyea said. “They wanted to know about the berm and the fence. That was part of the conditions with CN Rail to absorb the noise, not bounce off it.” One caller wondered if the subdivision was proceeding too fast. “I can't deny that,” Alyea said. “It is moving fast.” Another person griped about the stormwater pond, but Alyea said he checked it out himself and found everything is going well. “It is an impressive subdivision,” commented John Gooding, project and development coordinator with public works. “Each house has its own stormwater lateral. We've never had that before in Quinte West.” He said there will also be a park. “It's a great subdivision,” Gooding said. “I'm glad it is proceeding.” Jardine said this is the second phase in the land's development, with one more to go, at the back of the property. The Brookshire Meadows subdivision received draft plan approval from the city in August, 2013. The amended draft plan encompasses 143 single detached residential lots, seven blocks for freehold town homes, and stormwater management and parkland blocks. Phase 2 involves the extension of Aspen Drive and Birchmount Streets and the creation of two new streets, Springfield Crescent and Woodburn Drive. The advisory committee also approved a zoning amendment for 342 Christiani Road, owned by Kenneth Lee, from A2-General Rural to A3 Rural Residential. The property has about six acres of land with 570 feet of frontage on Christiani Road. Also approved was a zoning amendment at 216 Carter Road, owned by Michael and Michelle Wood, from A2-General Residential to A3-Rural Residential. The property is about 15 acres with 2,011 feet of frontage on the west side of Carter Road in Murray.

429 ‘Bison’ Transport Squadron has been an integral contributor to the mission in Afghanistan since January 2002 when it participated as part of Operation Apollo, the first Canadian deployment in the campaign against terrorism. Between January and August 2002, the CC-130 Hercules Tactical Airlift Detachment (TAL Det) logged more than 1,800 operational flying hours on more than 320 missions in the Arabian Gulf Region. During the same period, the squadron helped to deliver two million kilograms of cargo and 3,700 passengers to destinations in the theatre of operations in support of coalition forces. The first Canadian tactical flight into Kandahar occurred in 2003. 429 Squadron successfully delivered 30,000 pounds of material to a bombed-out 3,900 foot long runway under direct small arms and rocket fire. With the introduction of the CC-117 Globemaster III in 2007, 429 Squadron’s role expanded to providing the critical air bridge between Canada and Afghanistan with regular sustainment flights in support of operations. Critical to the success of the war effort, 429 Squadron flew 746 missions totalling close to 17,000 hours of flight. These missions saw the successful delivery of 32,000 troops and 65 million pounds of freight to Kabul, Kandahar and Bagram airfields in direct support of coalition forces. From 2007 to March 18, 2014, 429 Squadron has deployed hundreds of individuals totalling 18,937 person days and 541 missions. In addition to the 541 missions, the squadron has also conducted 285 sustainment flights. Each flight involved a crew of six and took an average seven to 10 days to complete.

say the CC-177 Globemaster was the lifeline for our troops that operated in Afghanistan,” he remarked as members of 429 Squadron gathered to welcome the last CC-117 crew home on March 18. Prince Edward-Hastings MP Daryl Kramp, representing the minister of defence, said he was delighted to express in person the gratitude felt by the people of the Quinte region, the province and the entire country for the great job done by members of the Canadian Armed Forces in general and those at 8 Wing in particular. “I’ve experienced the highs and lows of what you’ve done,” he said. “I’ve been here for some of the repatriations – the horrible price that has been paid – but also the accomplishments – over 32,000 troops and 65 million pounds of freight to Kabul, Kandahar and Bagram airfields in direct support of coalition forces. That’s absolutely incredible and something you should be so proud of.” Nearly three weeks after the delivery of the first CC-177 Globemaster, Lt.-Col. Jean Maisonneuve flew the first CC-177 combat mission into Afghanistan on Aug. 29, 2007. Lowthian, who was also at 8 Wing at the time, recalled how quickly the first CC-117 was introduced to the mission. “From that point onward, we worked our way up to oneweek sustainment flights or more if required,” he added. “We repatriated our troops, we conducted relief-in-place missions, deployed-in-place missions, and very important missions which highlighted the teamwork, team building and hard work and partnerships of all involved. I want to highlight the importance of that teamwork behind this operation and the one and only important part of this mission – to support our troops on the ground in Afghanistan. Congratulations! Mission accomplished.” 429 Transport Squadron has not stopped since that first mission. “Over 700 missions we’ve flown in support of our troops in theatre and close to 17,000 hours of flight,” Lothian said. “It’s the first time we’ve resupplied troops in combat since Korea. Congratulations! You make me very proud!”

porate ﬁnance needs to get a sensible policy. There is inconsistency.” The Trenton Figure Skating Club will hold its spring carnival this Sunday, March 30 from 1 to 4 p.m. The theme is Around the World and features 70 of the club skaters as well as two celebrity skaters, Alaine Chartrand from Canada Skate and silver medalist Trennt Michaud. Festival chair Crystal Weese said the club can really use the $500 donation which will help cover costs of $739. “Our club is down slightly this year,” Weese said. “The cost of renting the ice is the largest expense. We need six hours for the carnival to set up and do a warm-up as well as the festival itself.” She says the carnival is a chance for the skaters to showcase their skills to family, friends and the community. President Cathy Pye notes the club is always fundraising to pay for ongoing expenses. The Trenton Figure Skating Club has been going since 1957 and the carnival is the last event of the year. Tickets can be purchased at the door for $10 each, $5 for children up to 12; there's no charge for children under four. Frankford Figure Skating Club is also having a carnival this weekend, on Saturday, March 29 from 1 to 3 p.m. featuring all their local skater, including a father-and-daughter skate.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Is our society We must do more to catch corporate tax cheats going to perish due to the wireless industry?

Dear Editor When I was in undergraduate school my friend Mel P needed to borrow my student loan money, because he needed a new Plymouth. He had to buy it right away because he was moving back to Canada after graduation. In those days one could import a new car into Canada duty free, if one had owned it for so many months while living in the USA. So, he got my money because he needed it: his student loan hadn’t come in yet. Six months later I asked him if he could pay me back, because I had to pay my tuition. Apparently his student loan had come in, “...but,” he, “had to ask Henry L if his student loan has come in”. You see, when Mel no longer needed my money he lent it Henry L because he also needed a new car. Ah, those wonderful days when we were all kind of hippy, love was all and money didn’t matter much. We borrowed from Peter to pay Paul. Student loans were no longer available once we graduated. We soon realized that if Peter kept borrowing from Paul, both Peter and Paul would run out of money. My alma mater just disclosed a 160

million dollar boondoggle. They borrowed from Reserve Funds to make certain investments, did some internal borrowing, etc. Our Municipal Budget indicates 1.4 million dollars of “Internal Borrowing” from our Reserve Funds. The first budget draft indicated Reserves of about 5.5 million. A supplementary March 8 document indicated $3,964,190 -- minus $1,378,188 Internal Borrowing, leaving Net Reserves of $2,543,976.84. An interesting way to put that: “Net Reserves”. I take it that real reserves are now 2.5 million. There probably is an additional million in a contingency fund that is not included in Reserve Fund Balances. Maybe I don’t understand municipal arithmetic. I understand business management and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). I understand that our Urban Infrastructure Reserve Fund for example, which once had nearly 2 million now has $84,000 left. We have similar problems with the Reserve Funds for Recreation, for Sewer and for Water. Maybe Internal Borrowings has some source of funds we don’t know about – something like the Student Loans of our Hippy days. The problem with borrowing from Reserve Funds is that such borrowing inevitably stresses taxes in following years. Internal

Dear Editor It was a golden opportunity for Brighton Council to shine in the eyes of Gosport and South Brighton residents by reconsidering their decision of August 2012 to forego water quality testing on the inner shores of Brighton Bay (notably Gosport Beach). Regretfully, the motion was defeated once again at the March 17, 2014 council meeting with Councillors Rowley, Vandertoorn and Kerr voting against and Councillors Martinello, Tadman and Mayor Walas voting for the testing of Gosport swimming area beaches. While testing continues on a regular basis at Presqu’ile Park beaches during the summer, the residents of the inner bay shores have been given no such consideration even for areas marked with municipal signage as being swimming areas. It should be noted that the signage has been in place for an

unknown period of time and was probably in place before the construction of the sewage lagoon and polishing pond. If the Council is dragging its feet over testing, one has to ask the reason why? Councillor Tadman has lived on the Bay Shore for all of her life and knows what it looked like before and after the construction of the lagoon/polishing pond. I suppose that those voting against testing are concerned that the municipality might be blamed for any degradation. If the water proves to be unfit for swimming, it appears that some members of council do not want to know and are hiding their heads in the sand. Some argued about the cost of testing which would be minimal. Others had concerns about liability which is a red herring as the waters of Presqu’ile Park beaches are tested regularly, and if a problem is found, the beaches are posted to protect beach users. I have not heard or read about any testing staff being sued. If the beach is posted, it is your choice to take a risk (assume liability) or refrain from swimming. Surely the same consideration could be afforded the residents of Gosport and South Brighton. Roger McMurray Brighton

Borrowing is spending the revenue of following years. (Hazel Mc Callion, show us how you managed Brampton so well and without debt!) I asked one of our councillors where Internal Borrowing gets the money to repay the Reserve Funds. His response was, “From money that comes from taxes. We borrow from ourselves and pay interest to ourselves rather than to a bank.” That seems like a responsible way of doing things, if there are no other options. What about a third option; asking each department to live within its means, no loans? Better yet; how about adding an incentive for staff and employees to see what they can do to fix our problem, with a bonus program -- fifteen cents for every dollar saved? Sound like a bit much for Brighton? Utilization of employee suggestions within the objectives of our corporate agenda could save us money. If we keep managing our corporate agenda as we have we will keep getting the same results. A river never rises above its source. Confrontation breeds contempt and contempt is very expensive. Cooperation and encouragement breed success. And success will add to the bottom line. Henk Getkate Brighton

cannon fodder. In the meantime we could raise Canada’s tax rate to that of the USA, plug a bunch of the loopholes built into the system and reinstate those Canada Revenue employees recently tossed out of work, putting them all to work on ferreting out Canadian links to tax havens around the globe. Audit Analytics found that US money moved offshore in 2013 had reached nearly two trillion. With more and more of Canadian business being sucked into transnational companies, some of that would have been taxed here a few years ago. In 2012 the Cayman Islands received more direct foreign “investment” than Japan. In one building the only tenant was a law firm, but it was the mailing address for 18,800 foreign companies. Many of these tax havens are under British rule, which should make it easier to deal with if there were a will to do so. Paul Whittaker Gilmour

factor in this dwindling source for our social programs as well as the ongoing attack on the environment is the corporation’s act. The main focus of the act is the “maximization of profit”. A couple of Chicago school lawyers go so far as to claim that if a company can increase profit by breaking the law, it should do so: is mandated to do so under the act. Pollution, human rights and yes even tax fairness do not warrant an appearance in the act. How could our corporate/political leaders have missed this omission? Was it tucked inside a huge Omnibus bill perhaps? In any case surly it is high time the corporation’s act was re-visited and not by a committee of corporate lawyers, but by some one committed to guarding the public good. This used to be the mandate of “Government” acting as a buffer between the powerful and Canadian citizens. Our government now considers big business as its “clients”, the rest of us as

Dear Editor Health Canada is in a bind. It relaxed the rules for the wireless industry to set up towers because it is much cheaper than putting cables in the ground. Now it cannot admit to the horrendous health effects these electromagnetic radiations produce, nor can it tell us how to protect ourselves. It is possible to enjoy much of this wonderful technology with little cost to ourselves? If we only knew. Satellite Internet is only 15 per cent slower than wireless and some companies make the changeover for free. Discard all portable phones, as theses on average emit force 200 times the health limit. Go to the old fashioned corded phones. Metal protects. All connections to the house must go through a sheathed metal cable as in satellite internet and a laptop should be plugged to theses outlets. Why bother, you may say. An average home with a router and a WiFi emits a force 200 times the health limit of 10 microwatts/meter square. Studies throughout the world point to the deleterious effects of the wireless industry on health. All life is electro-magnetic. Our bodies produce a delicate electrical field. Imagine a power 200 times stronger hitting us. No wonder it speeds up aging, increases heart trouble, diabetes, cancer, childhood leukemia and miscarriages. The downfall of the ancient Roman empire is attributed partially to lead poisoning coming from lead pipes in their elaborate water-works systems. Is our society going to perish due to the wireless industry? Health Canada, by its own admission supports industry. Who is a better citizen: One who informs the public of the truth or one who allows himself the luxury of a pleasant lie that we are safe? There is much we can be grateful for in Canada, but Health Canada’s support of the wireless industry is not one of them. My Microwatt meter does not lie. An average wireless tower at 600 feet emits a force 50 to 60 times the health limit. Is that a good reason to put one down in the middle of town? A residence several miles away from a tower may easily be receiving 11 times the health limit 24/7. Yet nobody tells us. Mary Richter Wellington

Dear Editor There has been a growing movement of authors disgusted with the level of tax avoidance by large corporations, all of which has to be made up by the rest of us. A recent post by Pete Evens in January this year exposed the “double Irish with a Dutch sandwich” scam, which saved Google a cool six billion dollars in taxes during the last three years. All the while we are told by conservative financial gurus that cutting taxes for corporations and the rich will magically create jobs and lure investment. The USA is now complaining that Canada, if not already, is on the road to being a tax haven. Our finance minister talks about cracking down on tax cheats but after pointing a finger at “environmental criminal charities” and targeting eight million for auditing these groups, has actually cut 3,000 workers at CRA. Treating a bruised head is of little use unless you stop banging it against the wall. One major

OPINION

Nigeria: Is 100 years enough?

Editorial - The reason they convened a National Conference to discuss Nigeria’s future last week is that it’s the hundredth anniversary of the unification of the northern and southern protectorates into one nation. Well, one colony, actually, since the whole place would remain under British rule for another half-century. And the one subject the delegates are banned from discussing is whether unification was really such a Gwynne Dyer good idea. It was an excellent idea from the viewpoint of the British colonial administrators, of course. Not only was it tidier, but it crippled resistance to British rule. When you force five hundred different ethnic groups with as many languages into a single political entity, they will spend more time fighting one another than the foreigners. (Even Nigeria’s name was invented by the British.) A century later, the country is still riven by ethnic and religious divisions that distort both its politics and its economy. Nigeria is one of the world’s biggest oil producers, but twothirds of its 170 million people live on less than $2 a day and even the big cities only get electricity four hours a day. It ranks 144th on Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index, which means in practice that most public funds are stolen. In the mainly Muslim north, an extremist Islamic insurgency by a group called Boko Haram (“Western Education is Forbidden”) killed more than 1,300 people in the first two months of this year. Or rather, they and the brutal and incompetent army units who respond to their attacks with indiscriminate violence together accounted for 1,300 lives. And when Lamido Sanusi, the internationally respected head of Nigeria’s central bank, accused the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) of failing to repatriate $20 billion of the $67 billion received for oil sales between January 2012 and July 2013, President Goodluck Jonathan suspended him for “financial recklessness and misconduct.” “Failing to repatriate” actually means that the money stayed abroad and disappeared into the foreign bank accounts of powerful Nigerians. This is normal: it has been estimated that two-thirds of the $600 billion that Nigeria has earned in the past fifty years from selling its oil was lost to corruption by the political and business elite. What was unusual was for a member of the elite to challenge the practice openly. Sanusi, who was named Central Bank Governor of the Year in 2010 by Banker magazine, was promptly accused of links to Boko Haram in a document circulated to Nigerian websites that was traced back to President Jonathan’s social

media adviser. It was a typical establishment response, and it was total nonsense. But a depressing number of southern Nigerians will believe almost anything about Sanusi simply because he is a northern Muslim. He is actually a member of the northern aristocracy – his grandfather was the emir of Kano – and an Islamic scholar who condemns Wahhabist fundamentalism. He is one of Nigeria’s foremost advocates of a tolerant, inclusive Islam: “Even a cursory student of Islamic history knows that all the trappings of gender inequality present in the Muslim society have socio-economic and cultural, as opposed to religious roots,” he said recently. Yet the mistrust between Muslims and Christans, northerners and southerners, is so great that Sanusi’s whistle-blowing is seen by many southerners as a political operation aimed at the Christian president. They believe this even though they also know that the money really was stolen by people at the NNPC, and that Goodluck Jonathan is protecting them because some of it was going to be used to finance his re-election campaign next year. And why does Jonathan need so much money? To buy the support of the northern power-brokers, who will then deliver the votes to keep him in the presidency. Then he will be able to go on protecting his friends. It’s a closed system, and it’s making Sanusi more radical by the moment. Recently he told the Guardian: “If the population as a whole starts protesting what is going on in our country, how many of them can they kill?” He added that the ousted leaders of Ukraine and the Arab spring nations “never did half as much damage to their countries as our rulers have.” But Sanusi is unlikely to bring the system down. That is why, at the National Conference on Nigeria’s future that meets in Abuja over the next three months, some people will certainly defy the ban and start talking about re-dividing Nigeria between north and south. They will mostly be southerners, who resent the large amounts of oil income that the federal government transfers to the northern states that desperately need the money. Northerners will fiercely resist the idea of partition because they would be left running a country only slightly better off than Mali. (Despite the transfers of oil revenue, 72 percent of the population in the North lives in poverty; in the South, only 27 percent does.) And in the end, nothing will happen, because cutting off the North would spoil the game. Nigeria is unquestionably the most dysfunctional large country in the world, but it will hang together because all the elites benefit from the dysfunction, which allows them to steal massive amounts with complete impunity. Indeed, you might say that Nigeria survives because it is dysfunctional.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Spying breaches our privacy rights Dear Editor I am writing to express my disgust at the government and its “spy” agency CSEC (Communications Security Establishment Canada). I am very concerned about how government spying has grown secretive, expensive, and out-of-control. It’s just been revealed that an independent inquiry has found guilty of misusing public funds and “serious breaches” of values and ethics. I’ve been upset and shocked to learn how they are using taxpayer dollars to spy on innocent Canadians. We know they spied on thousands of law-abiding airport travelers, and even tracked their movements for weeks after. The type of data CSEC is collecting on us can reveal everything from our financial status, to our medical history, our sexual orientation, and even our religious and political beliefs. Does this scare you? If it doesn’t it should. With the ease and proliferation of

hacking these days, any cyber-criminal, any despot or fascist politician in any country, can use this information against you in the future. I understand data mining information can be kept for 15 years. We have no idea who will be in power then, or what their agenda will be. CSEC is working in partnership with the USA’s NSA. All of their spying activities are making our sensitive information more susceptible to identity theft and vulnerable to attack. Privacy is a fundamental right in any healthy democracy. By spying on us and collecting our private information in giant databases, the government is doing damage to our already frail Canadian democracy. Our democracy is under attack and I would encourage everyone to learn more about these threats. You can find more information at OurPrivacy.ca. Roberta Jamieson Codrington

Cardiac recovery improves but more needs to be done By Bill Freeman Editorial - It’s been almost 11 months to the day that I had my very close and totally unexpected brush with death on a day like any other but one that ended with me stripped out of my running gear and unconscious, intubated, and in an ORNGE ambulance on my way to Toronto General Hospital after an earlier ambulance trip to Peterborough Regional Hospital and its lifesaving cardiology facility. That ten-minute ambulance ride to PRHC and the emergency Percutaneous Cardiac Intervention (PCI) procedure performed by Dr. Eric Horlock was absolutely critical, so was his assessment of a dysfunctional mitral valve and the decision to send me on to Toronto for more attention. The fact that I had also gone into cardiogenic shock added to the cascade of woe. Yet here I am alive and well and power-walking up a storm, able to do around ten Ks in a one-hour stretch. I’m one of the lucky ones, a member of an increasingly larger group of survivors who got the prompt care they needed. But I’m also one of a much smaller group of people who embarked on a supervised cardio rehabilitation program then stuck with the plan under nothing more than my own guidance and determination to move myself further away from the Grim Reaper. There is a portion of my heart’s functioning that’s not going to come back; I know that and have the cath chart to prove it so I’ve accepted that reality. But there are ways to make what exists as strong and healthy as possible and that’s what I am doing with my own personal rehabilitation regime which also includes healthy eating, making sure medications are taken and managing stress, the hardest part of all. Apart from family history (a looming risk factor in its own right) I really don’t fit the typical profile of a cardiac emergency waiting to happen so when I read about hockey players like Rich Peverley, Kris Letang or Jiri Fischer I take notice. They were as surprised as I was. I’m pretty confident right now that my heart health level, even with the damage done, is better than that of many people who have never experienced a cardiac crisis and have never had their heart pumping strength measured by a battery of tests, examinations and fibre optic probing. What is remarkable today is that 90 per cent of heart attack victims and 80 per cent of stroke victims who make it to the hospital will survive. I’m one of 165,000 survivors in 2013. According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation’s 2014 Report on Health, the death rate from cardiovascular disease has declined by 75 per cent over the past 60 years – 40 per cent in the last decade alone. Still, there are 350,000 hospitalizations a year in Canada due to heart and stroke – I was one of them – and each year there are 50,000 new cases of heart disease diagnosed, 70,000 heart attacks and 50,000 strokes. Heart and stroke remain two of the three leading causes of death in Canada and yet 80 per cent of premature heart and stroke is preventable. Cardiac rehabilitation plays a huge role in elevating the positives in the lives of people who have experienced a heart attack or stroke. Studies show that it reduces mortality by at least 25 per cent but the critical disconnect here is that there aren’t enough programs available to those who need them and those that do exist are not funded by public healthcare. The Report on Health indicates that only one-third of cardiac survivors eligible for rehab are referred to a program; the statistics are even lower for stroke survivors, 19 per cent. “Rehabilitation cannot reverse all the effects of cardiovascular disease but it supports survivors in innumerable ways,” the Heart and Stroke Foundation report says. I enjoyed my eight weeks of rehab under the care of a specially-trained emergency room nurse, side-by-side with five other survivors of various ages and experience with exercise and illness. The sessions included talks on a number of related topics like nutrition, stress, medications and cardiac emergencies. There were plenty of kilometres logged watching The Property Brothers on TV. It was a valuable re-entry into the world of activity after such a staggering life-changing event, but the programs are rare and not easily accessible. I was the one asking about rehab while lying in ICU. “There are simply not enough programs and they should be a funded part of the healthcare system. They are not and they should be, after all you do not have to pay for cardiac procedures,” says Dr. Neville Suskin, medical director of the cardiac rehabilitation and secondary prevention program at St. Joseph’s Health Care in London, Ontario. Brilliant and timely intervention saved my life; cardiac rehab awakened the possibility of a healthy and active future.

Seasons residents get a Harvest Hastings helps four-legged visitor introduce more local products By Kate Everson

News – Quinte West – Harvest Hastings is helping ensure local products get into the community’s cupboards. “In 2013 we formed new partnerships to introduce more local artisans and producers to the area,” Klaasje Bergveld told the agricultural advisory committee. Speaking on behalf of the board of directors of Harvest Hastings, Bergveld said the group has got involved in the Local Woods Initiative and assisted in upgrading farmers’ markets in places such as Bancroft and Marmora. “Identifying where Harvest Hastings fits with other local organizations of similar interests and mandates has been a challenge,” she admitted. Harvest Hastings is working on a strategic plan for the upcoming growing season. Bergveld said food hubs are being developed at Grills Orchards and Rancho Tranquillo to ensure that local products are being used in the Good Food Box program. “Food security means that all people have access to an adequate supply of safe, affordable and nutritious food, without social and economic

barriers,” she said. “The Food Security Network has listed Hastings County as the second worst in the province.” Bergveld said consumers have been asking to become members of Harvest Hastings and many are coming to its workshops. Jack Ketcheson, vice-chair of Ontario Institute of Agrologists, commended the Harvest Hastings directors for their work to promote local foods and products in Hastings County and area.

Residents get a taste of local treats at Seasons Dufferin Centre By Kate Everson

News – Quinte West – Residents at the Seasons Dufferin Centre had the chance to sip a little local wine and taste local bread, cheese and chocolate on a sunny afternoon March 21. “Our event featured mostly local vendors,” said lifestyles services manager Kate Chisholm. She organized the event with head chef Trevor McMillan and general manager Dawn Petit. Staff dished Kate Chisholm samples some chocolate at Mrs. B's booth with Lorie Boy- out the hors d'oevres, a selection of Prince Edward County wines, Mrs. B's chuk. Photo: Kate Everson

chocolates from Brighton, bread from Belleville Bakery, and cheese from local producers. “Tonight we are having a 500-mile dinner,” McMillan said. “This is a ﬁrst-time event. It helps introduce our residents to what is available close to home.” McMillan said he was involved in a similar event last year at Maranatha Church in Belleville featuring only produce grown within 500 miles. “Tonight we are having apple mushroom-stuffed pork tenderloin, Barley Days beer and cheddar soup from Maple Dale Cheese, homemade apple pie from local orchards and scalloped potatoes with grated cheese,” he said.

The residents seemed to enjoy the fare, coming back for seconds and thirds. “I'm back for some Sandbanks white wine,” Ed Latham said, smiling. Maintenance man Barry Reid was the cheese man, offering up all kinds of cheese with a smile. He said he used to be a cheese producer and was happy to slice the cheese for residents. Kate Chisholm found a minute to sneak over to Mrs. B's chocolate table and sample a favourite or two. Everyone seemed happy to share the local bounty and discover there really is more than enough to eat at home.

News – Batawa -This downhill was for dummies – literally! Batawa Ski Hill held its annual Dummy Downhill March 22 and the dummies did not disappoint. The track was steep, the jump was big and the equipment went flying everywhere. Steve Smith, from the Frontenac Zone Canadian Ski Patrol, created the winning dummy. A protest accusing him of using all the bandages at the hill was dismissed after the patrol shack was searched and extra bandages found. Racer 3, who looks a lot like Sully, got some great airtime and finished in second. Steezy Neet was a very creative entry that had a little trouble keeping it on course and finished in third.

The entries were judged on creativity, realism, speed, airtime and crashes. A morning snow added to already amazing conditions at the Batawa Ski Hill and the sun was peeking out in the afternoon. The winter that will not go away is making it tons of fun to come out skiing and snowboarding. The ski hill will be open until March 30; people are advised to check with the website or call 613-398-6568 to confirm the hours of operation. There are two more fun activities planned to finish off the season, the Season Finally Rail Jam on March 29 and the Puddle Jump March 30. Lots of fun to try or to watch. For more information call 613-3986568 or email gm@batawaskihill.com

Venture interests local farmers

News – Quinte West – Northumberland County’s agricultural coordinator made a presentation on the Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre being built in Colborne to the Agricultural Advisory Committee last week. “The food processing facility will provide opportunities for local area producers in niche food products,” Trissia Mellor said.

The idea is to work with the agricultural communities in the Business Retention and Expansion (BRE) project area to create partnerships and opportunities to make local products available in different formats on a year-round basis. Joe Mullin, operation manager of the Ontario Agri-Food Innovation Centre, reviewed the plant plans and equipment setup for the committee.

The event runs from April 28 to May 9 in 31 schools across the Quinte area, nine of them in MLS# MLS# 2132271 2132271 Quinte West. Quinte West OPP Constable Maggie McGaughen will be involved in the local spring cycling TASTEFUL HOME! HOME! tour with teams cycling more than 500 kilometres raising awareness and TASTEFUL support. McGaughen is the school resource officer and has been involved in the local schools. She is also on the board of directors of Quinte West Youth Centre. In January, more than 150 students graduated from the OPP KIDS (Knowledge, Issues, Decisions, Supports) program at Murray Centennial, Queen Elizabeth and V.P. Carswell elementary schools. The graduation included treats from Tim Hortons and a fun jeopardy-style game that reviewed $234,900 $234,900 all the important lessons taught to the youth over the six-week Charming program.

This helps to reduce the stigma of mental illness and educates the youth about supports available in the community. McGaughen has also been busy educating local high school students about the dangers of sexting. This form of peer exploitation can have serious and life-changing consequences to both victims and violators. McGaughen and community service officer Constable Dave Ludington have hosted assemblies at Quinte West high schools highlighting the realities of social media.

Vice-chair Jack Ketcheson asked if there would be any connection with the University of Guelph’s food sciences division. Mullin said he had recently discussed partnership opportunities with the University of Guelph and Guelph Food Technology. A 22,000-square-foot building is currently under construction in Colborne’s Industrial Park. The agri-food venture centre will occupy 15,000 square feet and the rest will be leased out. Ketcheson said he hopes the facility will fill the gap left by the closing of canning facilities throughout the area. Hamilton asked about the financial backing for the facility. Mellor said each of the BRE participant municipalities are being asked to contribute $5,000. The committee passed a motion asking the city of Quinte West to support the Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre with a $5,000 contribution.

“Many partnerships will be formed by the centre,” he said. “They can be accessed by the local producers that utilize the facility to assist in determining best practices for processing, labelling and marketing of their product.” Chair Ron Hamilton asked if the centre will have a pool of employees that can be utilized by the producers. Mullin said he has met with temporary agencies to set up a pool of seasonal workers who can be utilized when required. Henny Bergveld asked what area would be serviced by the centre. Mullin said local producers will be given preference but requests from outlying producers will be accommodated when scheduling and space permits. Agricultural producers in the BRE participation area will be eligible for membership and use of the facility.

Glen Miller Church celebrates 170th anniversary

By Ron Gibson

News – Quinte West – A community church, Christ Anglican in Glen Miller, is observing its 170th anniversary on Sunday, March 30 with a special service at 1:30 p.m. Everyone is welcome. One of the earliest rural churches in Quinte West, Christ Anglican was consecrated in 1843. The present church, along the west bank of the Trent River, replaced the original structure, which was consumed by fire back about 1943. Services have been carried out regularly every week at the small parish with a morning service held at 9 a.m. each Sunday. Today, Christ Anglican Church is under a joint

charge consisting of St. George’s Trenton and Holy Trinity Frankford, as well as Glen Miller. Services are regularly conducted with clergy, Rev. Steve Timpson and assistant curate, Rev. Ada Rochford. They are also assisted by their honorary assistants Rev. Thora Rowe, Rev. Sid Horne and Rev. Dr. Norman Martin. Several former clergy will be taking part in the anniversary service. The small church boasts of local families and supporters of the parish. The original church was situated immediately north of the present site. It was initially a family home until the parish acquired it following the fire that destroyed the

It was soon converted to a sanctuary and church structure with stained glass windows provided with diligent support of Peter Miller and his wife. Subsequently, other members of the Miller family provided ongoing support to the small church. The supportive congregation continued to make changes and in recent years have added a distinguished hall and improved kitchen facilities. The mission statement for the joint congregation is “to know Christ and to make Christ known.” The friendly congregation at Christ Church welcomes everyone to their morning services and invites all newcomers to become familiar with the many programs and services provided by Christ Church.

Bullying is a community problem: speaker

creating Jobs

By Ross Lees

News – Quinte West – Bullying is much more than just a problem faced by students. It’s a societal problem, a community problem, says Jasmin Roy, philanthropist, actor, host, author, director, reporter, columnist, speaker and one of the leaders of the Opération Enfant Soleil Telethon and the creator of the Jasmin Roy Foundation in 2010. After speaking to students at École secondaire MarcGarneau he told reporters he wanted the students “to understand the impact of bullying on the human brain and their self-esteem. “I said to them, it’s not because you have been bullied in your life – like Céline Dion – that you’re not going to be able to have a successful career or be able to accomplish things in life,” he said. “The specialists say that when the bullies understand the consequences of bullying, that’s when they change. So I don’t talk about the violence, but what that violence caused to me inside. I had to deal with anxiety

problems, depression, even when I was a teenager and as an adult.” Those problems remain with him and still must be negotiated with as a condition of his life, Roy said. Roy, who was bullied from a very young age, holds the seminars to try to prevent teenagers from experiencing the same kind of life problems. His program has been taught so far mostly in Quebec, but he wants to expand it across Canada. Students’ reaction to his seminars has often surprised their teachers and principals of the schools, Roy said. He is often advised by them “it will be tough” at their school and then are amazed by the result. Roy said they often have to stop the seminar before the students are finished asking questions. “I don’t lie!” he said. “It’s my story and when I talk about all the problems with girls right now, the girls who say ‘slut,’ ‘bitch,’ and ‘whore,’ I think we have a society problem,” he stated. “It’s more than just bullying. It’s how the young girls deal with their own identity.” Roy also holds seminars at elementary schools to students in Grade 4 and above. He told of being at one recently and getting questions from students about anxiety and sleeping problems. He couldn’t believe these issues were being affecting children so young. His seminar for adults is different from the one he gives to students. “I still talk about my story, but with the parents, we need to talk about the perceptions because they are used to saying to their children or teenagers, ‘You need to fight back.’ We need to change that mentality. Parents have to work with the school.”

Second annual Jane’s Walks coming to Belleville May 3 and 4

News – Belleville will join hundreds of cities around the world celebrating community pride and livable cities with the second annual Jane’s Walk on Saturday and Sunday, May 3 and 4. The Walk is named for Toronto urban thinker and community activist Jane Jacobs whose 1961 book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities, influenced the way people looked at cities and the approach to urban planning. This now international event was created a year after Jacobs died at 89. Jane’s Walk started in Toronto, and the May date honors her birthday. For more information see janeswalk.org. A group of like-minded people have come together to share Jacobs’ vision and invite the community to participate in four themed walks. Led by volunteers, these walk are free, fun and informative. Some of the discussions and themes will be based on current events such as downtown’s

National floorball teams battle it out in Belleville

basic premise of the sport is of two teams of five players and a goalie attempt to score on each other’s nets over the course of three 20-minute periods. There are some key differences however, which start with the absence of hitting in order to encourage safety. The game is played with light-weight plastic composite sticks, a whiffle ball and rules that promote safety and skill. Relatively new to Canada, the sport is massively popular in Europe, where in Sweden alone there are more than 150,000 registered players under the age of 19. Davis said that while it’s going to take a long time for the sport to reach that level of popularity in North America, he has seen a steady rise of interest in the game, to the point where the Belleville Floorball League can boast more than 100 players this season. “We’re getting there,” Davis said. “We’re getting less questions about why, and how you play it for sure.” For U19 coach Todd Crawford, it’s all about setting a foundation. A former assistant coach with the Canadian U19 men’s squad, Crawford is preparing his team for a trip to Poland in early May for the 2014 World Floorball Championships, where he says they have a great shot of taking home first place in their group. Davis said if his team wins the tournament it will boost its ranking to eighth in the world, the best mark of any Canadian national team. “We’re way behind the 8-ball [internationally] but we have lots of hockey players, and that’s all you need,” Crawford said. One of the best things about the sport for Crawford is how inexpensive it is for players. Compared to hockey where parents can easily spend thousands of dollars on equipment for a single season, all a player needs to play floorball is a stick and a pair of running shoes. “It’s a very affordable sport ... and this will bring more kids to the game,” Crawford said. For U19 team member Hannah Wilson of Belleville, joining a floorball team at her school was enough to get her hooked. A student at Moira Secondary School, Wilson starting playing about a year ago, and said she’s excited to U19 player Hannah Wilson (#81) is a student at Moira Secondary School, and is joined on the team by travel to Poland for the upcoming championships.

Sports – Belleville sports fans had a taste of 2016 at the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre on Saturday night, where the Canadian Women’s Floorball Team took on the U19 Canadian Women’s Floorball team in an exhibition matchup organized by executives at the Belleville Floorball League (BFL). “We wanted to test the venue because

this is where we’ll host the 2016 world games,” U19 team general manager and BFL president Brett Davis said. “We’d also like to drum up interest, we wanted to give the public something to see. They want to see the game and they want to see how it’s played.” For those unfamiliar with the sport, floorball closely follows the format of Canada’s national pastime, hockey. The

Belleville teammates Ashley Boulter, CJ Tipping and Raven Tabobandung. “There was a team at my school and we ended up going to the Canada Cup in May, and I just had a lot of fun and decided to pursue it,” she said. “There’s definitely a big comparison with hockey, obviously you’re not on skates but the positioning and the key ideas behind the game are very similar.” Belleville was announced as the host of the Women’s U19 World Floorball Championships in May of last year, beating out Switzlerland for the honour. More than 400 athletes, coaches and fans from 16 countries are expected to visit Belleville for the 10-day event.

Loyalist recognizes varsity athletes

Sports – Belleville – Recipients of the Loyalist College 46th Annual Athletic Awards were announced at the college’s March 19 athletic banquet, a celebration of the Loyalist Lancers’ achievements this year. Loyalist President Maureen Piercy congratulated all athletes, coaches and staff for a great season. “You are wonderful ambassadors for Loyalist College - on the sports field, on the courts and in the classroom congratulations on all of your achievements,” she said. “We’re proud as well of the high number of provincial OCAA (Ontario Colleges Athletic Association) Academic Award recipients this year with 48 student athletes recognized by the OCAA for academic achievement, and one individual named as a CCAA (Canadian Colleges Athletic Association) Academic All Canadian. For those of you who are graduating, I know you will continue to represent the college, taking Loyalist female athlete of the year Mikayla Brennan and Please see “Loyalist” on page 20

Bullying is a community problem Continued from page 16

Roy said bullying is sometimes misidentified. “Some parents say their child was bullied, but it may only be once or twice a year and if it’s between friends, it’s not bullying but conflict. Usually bullying is not between friends,” he said. “Bullying is not only a problem between the victim and the bully,” he continued. “It’s a community problem. You need to work on the community and the school is a micro-community. You need to work on the ensemble because 99 per cent of the time, the aggression is in front of others. There are more people who are observers than victims or bullies.” Questions are often asked about suicide. Roy warned it’s an issue that must be dealt with

carefully. “Usually when they commit suicide, they are dealing with more than just bullying. We have to be careful with that. It’s a part of a bigger problem,” he said. Roy wrote a book about his experiences with bullying as a gay student; at first it was more like homophobia, he said. The second part of his book is about young people today dealing with similar problems. “After that, I opened my fight to all forms of bullying because I realized it was the same pattern,” he said. “Young people have a problem – anxiety, depression and they’re quitting school, so that’s why I decided to fight, to change this mentality.” Quinte West EMC - Thursday, March 27, 2014 19

Roller derby team rollin’ on By Steve Jessel

Sports – Belleville’s roller derby team is still gearing up for its first official bout, but until then interested women are always welcome with the newest team on the regional roller derby circuit. “There’s a lot of passion here, and for some of the women this is their first team sport,” said coach Keith Hotte. “A lot of them love it because it has given them good talks with other women, and it’s gotten them in shape – that’s the biggest comment I’ve had, is some people telling me roller derby saved their life, whether it’s from weight loss or passion for the game or just team play.” The team officially formed in June of 2013 after about a year of planning and after a surge of interest that saw some 40 women attend the first few practices the team today numbers nearly 30 women of varying ages and skill levels. Some of the skaters have already starting participating in bouts and scrimmages with other local teams, but as a whole Hotte said the team still needs some seasoning before he’s comfortable fielding them for an

official bout. “We are still very junior,” Hotte said. “We’re probably one of the newest teams in Ontario.” Skater Violette Sheehan joined the team after reading a newspaper article about it in 2013. She said that while nearly everyone on the team had the necessary skills and knowledge to participate in a bout, the mental aspect is something they’re still working on. She said watching a bout and seeing some of the more gruesome injuries can have a big impact in a skater’s confidence. “Everyone is at different levels, and we don’t want to push them into a level that they The Belleville Roller Derby team made a $500 donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation during their regular practice on March 21.

Hotte said he’s aiming for the team to play its first bout this summer, likely against one of the regional teams from either Peterborough or Kingston. Until then the team practices twice a week, and Hotte said there will likely be a welcome session for interested new players also this summer.

with you that Lancer “heart and hustle,” as well as “spirit and skill.” Mikayla Brennan, a first-year Child and Youth Worker student, was named Female Athlete of the Year for her role on the Lancers basketball team. “I could never have received this award without the support of my teammates and coaches. Some of my teammates were also classmates and we encouraged each other on the court and with our assignments. I believe that actions speak louder than words and I always strive to remember that I represent the college and myself. I am very proud – this is the perfect ending to a very good year.” “When a Loyalist student makes a varsity team, they are committing to much more than a sport,” said Jim Buck, Manager of Athletics and Campus Recreation. “They are signing on to support their teammates, respect their coaches, maintain good grades and act as Loyalist ambassadors within our community and beyond. It’s their ability to maintain this balance that makes us so proud of our athletes. This year, 48 Lancers were named OCAA Academic Award recipients and Kam Fung Tai was an Academic All Canadian winner. It is no small feat to juggle game and practice schedules and to find time to participate in community outreach events, while ensuring that program requirements are met. At the Athletic Awards, we celebrate these leaders.” For the second consecutive year, Patrick Kalala, Community and Justice Services student, was awarded Male Athlete of the Year for his role on the Lancer’s men’s basketball team. “When I started playing with the team, they were a sea of faces. Now, they’re family. The skills I learned on the court will go with me when I graduate. I know the value of teamwork and have learned to respect and appreciate how different personalities and strengths pull together and work toward a common goal. I understand the importance of being coached and of surrounding myself with good people. I’ve grown to be a leader. When people believe in you, people like your coaches and Athletics Manager Jim Buck, it pushes you to 20 Quinte West EMC - Thursday, March 27, 2014

Relay for Life kick-off event runs Saturday

out and enjoy an afternoon of fun and snacks. There is even a free gift when you register in person!” “Relay is not like any other fund raiser I’ve ever participated in,” says Canadian Cancer Society Volunteer President Karen White. “It’s truly for those whose lives have been touched by cancer.” White continues that participants gather to remember those who’ve lost their battle with the disease, celebrate the fighters and survivors and to encourage people to fight back against cancer through healthy living, healthy environments and by raising money for research and local service for people living with cancer. “I lost both my husband and recently my brother to cancer. Relay For Life has deep meaning for me, but it’s also just a fabulous excuse to have a great night with friends,” says White. Belleville’s Relay For Life event will be held June 20 this year, and the organizing committee is inviting teams to register now in person on Saturday, March 29, at The Sports and Wellness centre in Belleville, or to go online at <www.relayforlife.ca/Belleville> to sign up. They are also looking for volunteers to shoot photos and take video for this year’s Relay for Life in June. For more details contact the local Canadian Cancer Society office at 613-962-0686.

News –Belleville - Storybooks and comic books will come alive this year at The Canadian Cancer Society’s Relay For Life in Belleville. Volunteer organizers will give teams a sneak preview of the event on Saturday, March 29, when they host their annual team registration kick-off event in the gym at the Quinte Sport and Wellness Centre. “We’re doing the kickoff a little differently this year,” says Belleville Relay For Life Chair Christine MacArthur. “We plan to divide the gym into two areas: a place to register your team, and have a free snack and coffee, and a second area which will be set up like Relay For Life so teams get to experience a taste of the event.” The theme this year, Storybook Land, was chosen because everyone has a story to tell, and every story is important. “We wanted to create a fun theme where people can use their imaginations and get involved by decorating their tent sites or even dressing up for the theme,” says MacArthur. “Our vision is a storybook land, where good and evil come together to re-write cancer’s story.” The kick-off event runs from 2 to 4 p.m. and teams are invited to pop in during these hours. “The Kickoff is always a lot of fun,” says MacArthur. “We encourage people to come

Dancing with the Stars of Quinte returns

By Steve Jessel

Entertainment – Belleville – Sixteen participants from across the Quinte region will spend the next eight weeks shaking, shimmying and strutting their stuff in preparation of the seventh annual Dancing with the Stars of Quinte event coming this May. And at Y’Wanna Have a Cafe in downtown Belleville Saturday, the dancers found out who their partners and dance instructors would be for the popular upcoming competition. “There seemed to be such an energy in the room,” Diane Coyle said of the kick-off event. Coyle is the manager of information services and special events planner for Volunteer and Information Quinte, who organizes the event. “There was a buzz and enthusiasm that’s already getting me excited about the event.” The annual event is Volunteer and Information Quinte’s largest fundraiser of the year, and in 2013 it held its most successful event ever, where hundreds of spectators crowded into the Yardmen Arena in Belleville to watch Cassandra Bonn and Andy Caletti claim the title of Quinte’s top dancers with their highlands-inspired performance. That event raised over $25,000 for VIQ, and in 2014 Coyle said she would love to eclipse the $30,000 mark. Funds raised help support VIQ programs and services, including the volunteer recruitment and referral program that helps match prospective volunteers with appropriate agencies. “We try and find out what their interests are and try to match them up with agencies that need somebody,” Coyle said. “We find that’s the best satisfaction all around, it helps with volunteer retention for the agency because they invest time and training in the volunteer, and the volunteer is happy to be there.” Dancers either ask to take part or are recruited from the community, and Coyle said they always try and have a cross-section of different people and professions take part each year. The competition in 2014 will feature members of both the Belleville Fire Department and the Belleville Police Service, a high school teacher, a local media personality, small business owners and more. Participants are paired up with someone of a similar age and then matched to a volunteer dance instructor from one of a number of local dance studios. Dance instructors donate their time and experience to help craft and perfect a routine, and Coyle said some couples spend as much as 25 hours preparing for their routine. Participants and coaches in 2014 include Dani Guppy, radio co-host & music director for Rock 107 and Todd Crawford, head coach for Canadian U19 Women’s Floorball team with instructor Liz Lougheed-Brown of Dance With Miss Liz; Sharon Huckle, owner of the Cat’s Meow Salon and Spa and Nick Foley of Celebrate the Hero with instructor Lisa Sinclair; Taryl Kramp, manager at SunLife Financial and Ryan Turcotte, Belleville Firefighter with instructor Ryan Wong, advisor at SunLife Financial; Nancy Lowthian, Scotiabank and John Bonn, partner at O’Flynn Weese LLP with instructor Erin Warriner of Inside Out Dance Academy; Jennifer MacMillan, advertising sales rep at The Intelligencer and Darrell Hatfield, Constable, Bel-

MTO taking steps to address concerns about 401

By John Campbell

News – Northumberland County – The Ministry of Transportation is taking “very seriously” complaints about conditions on Highway 401 in the county this winter, which have resulted in numerous multiple-vehicle collisions and road closures. Kathy Moore, MTO’s regional director for Eastern Ontario, said the ministry has responded in several ways to concerns county ofﬁcials raised in a special meeting in February about maintenance of the 401 following snowfalls. The steps include undertaking “comprehensive audits” of the contractor’s operations within the county and installing cameras at the boundary of Northumberland and Durham Re-

gion to determine why there is a marked difference in the level of service being provided along the 401 between the two areas. The cameras will provide “better eyes on the road continuously” and help the ministry “understand what’s happening out there,” Moore told council March 19. MTO has also dedicated more personnel to Northumberland for ongoing monitoring. “We have up to six staff in addition to our normal complement working on these matters right now.” Ministry staff have also met with local police, fire and public works representatives, and travelled the road to see firsthand “specific issues.” Moore said the contractor, Carillion

Canada, which was awarded a 12-year contract last year, “is taking concerns being expressed by Northumberland County very seriously” as well; it recently added a senior superintendent for this area, a former ministry employee, who has worked on Highway 401 for many years. Moore added both MTO and the province’s auditor-general will be looking at highway maintenance across the province. Ministry staff will looking at contract requirements for contractors in particular, such as when snow-clearing equipment needs to be out on the road. A consultant will review the possibility of establishing a low visibility warning system and staff will look at what other jurisdictions Please see “MTO” on page B3

Caring for topsoil the subject of a workshop at Moira Hall News – Hastings County – Most of us go through life without thinking about soils in general, let alone about the soil beneath our feet. Topsoil is arguably the most precious natural resource we have. All life is dependent on the thin layer of topsoil that covers the earth. Harvest Hastings has invited Peter Neave, a soil scientist who works with Forests Ontario, to run a workshop on caring for the soil. It will be held at the Moira Community Hall on Thursday, April 10, from 1 to 5 p.m. He will lead an indoor, hands-on session and an

outdoor session, providing the weather co-operates. Neave will talk about the basics of soil, soil fertility, the value of soil tests, improving soils, managing weeds and rotating crops. It is a good workshop to attend whether you are a farmer or a gardener. In Hastings County, the soils developed under forests. Then the land was cleared to grow crops, creating a need to replace the nutrients taken out at harvest time. If they aren’t, it’s simply mining the soil. It takes a long time to

form soils, but it takes no time to lose soils through erosion. Soil is a mixture of minerals, organic matter, gases, liquids and a huge number of soil organisms. It is a living entity, not just a medium in which to grow plants. The bacteria and other organisms that live in the soil break down organic material and help release nutrients that enable plants to grow. The more nutrients there are in soils the more there are available for plants and animals. Plants support soil organisms by secreting enzymes and sugar on which they feed.

Soil has an important role to play in locking up carbon and reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Jack Ketcheson, a local asparagus grower, retired professor, and member of the City of Quinte West Agricultural Committee, was asked why he became a soil scientist, and the Harvest Hastings member answered this way: “Growing up on the home farm at Wallbridge in the 1920s, I soon realized how much our family relied on the soil for our existence and well-being. When I

read how many civilizations started up historically and perished because people neglected their soil resource and their food supply, I was further convinced of its importance, that is why I decided to learn all I could about soil science. I am glad I did.” It is important we all learn about the soil we depend on for life. For more information about the workshop or about Harvest Hastings call 613-395-4388 or email info@harvesthastings.ca, or www. harvesthastings.ca.

Daffodil pins ready to spread hope across Trent Hills

By Bill Freeman

��

News – Trent Hills – Every three minutes another Canadian will hear the words “you have cancer” for the first time and be forced to digest a stark and life-altering piece of news. That is something to think about during the month of April when canvassers and other volunteers with the Canadian Cancer Society raise funds to help those who have been stricken by the disease. Throughout the month volunteers across Trent Hills as well as in Norwood and Havelock will be selling daffodil pins to raise funds for the Society. “Money raised during Daffodil Month helps the Cancer Society fund excellent cancer research, provide information and deliver programs and services to prevent cancer,” says Emily Vassilidas, Relay for Life coordinator for the Canadian Cancer Society’s Peterborough and District office. “The funds also help to support people living with cancer and their families and caregivers right here in Trent Hills and to advocate on behalf of Canadians on important health and cancer issues,” Vassilidas says. Locally, Phyllis Donnelly will once again be organizing pin sales in Hastings, Havelock and Norwood with Dave McDougall and Lynn Forgrave heading up the Campbellford campaign

and Earline Armstrong putting together a team of volunteers in Warkworth. “These volunteers are an example of how the Canadian Cancer Society truly is a volunteer-based organization,” says Vassilidas. “It is only with the support of our donors and volunteers that the society will continue to save lives and support people living with cancer right now,” she says. There will be pins available at a number of locations throughout Trent Hills and the surrounding area but supporters can also make donations online by visiting www.cancer.ca or by calling the

in North America require of contractors in areas that are subject to snow squalls. They will also look at weather and collision data over an extended period. Northumberland OPP Detachment Commander Inspector Doug Borton said this winter was “unique in a number of different ways” and there was an increase in collisions throughout the county, not just on the 401. But “driver actions ... (are) something we really have to focus on,” he said. Speed is a problem everywhere, Alnwick-Haldimand Mayor Dalton McDonald said. “The problem we see is when we cross that (boundary) line, the road maintenance is not as good (in Northumberland) as it is on the other side.” “You need to talk to the people out there keeping that road clear so we can be safer,” he told Moore “Some years are worse than others, no doubt about that ... But we have to be prepared for the worst, and this year it certainly showed up that we weren’t on the 401 (in Northumberland).” Cramahe Mayor Marc Coombs expressed anger that the minister of transportation hadn’t responded to a letter from Warden Linda Thompson about service levels being “reduced significantly” on the 401 through the Northumberland corridor. It was “unacceptable” the ministry had lowered service standards “without prior con-

sultation and notification,” he said. “It was a shock to county council (when it) suddenly found out” the terms for a third generation contract had been changed, which would allow a contractor to use fewer pieces of equipment, he added. “Somebody (at the ministry) made a decision that puts me and my loved ones at risk,” he said, and “they have to do something about it.” Moore assured him the minister and staff are “tak-

ing these matters very seriously ... (and) clearly are paying attention.” Brighton Mayor Mark Walas said he hoped service levels will return to what they were and asked the ministry to “even look to enhance” them. Thompson said she and her colleagues appreciated Moore providing an update on what MTO has done since meeting with them in February and she suggested another report be given in person again next September, before the winter season.

Hastings artisan opens venue for like-minded “stitchers” By Bill Freeman

News – Hastings – Lynn Piticco wants to give local fibre artists a place where they can come together, hang out, share ideas and learn from each other. The Peterborough native, now a Hastings resident after growing up and working as a lawyer in British Columbia, has opened A Single Stitch at the corner of Front and Bridge Streets where she plans to give classes. But most of all she wants to welcome likeminded embroiders, quilters, felters, stitchers and other fibre artisans so they don’t have to pursue their crafts in isolation. “Basically, I moved my personal sewing room from my house here,” the enthusiastic Piticco told The Independent. “I am stitching, quilting, embroidering and doing needlepoint all the time by myself and so are all my lady friends. I wanted to have an open door venue so women could come and have a cup of tea, listen to music and enjoy a nice colourful place and all be together and stitch and stitch.”

Piticco calls herself a “late bloomer,” having taken up fibre crafts in 1998 after retiring from her law practice. “I went to a quilt shop and started buying fabric because it was beautiful. I kept going to a shop that had beautiful colours and fabrics and one day a lady said, ‘we have classes, we can teach you.’” Piticco’s reply was: “I failed home ec.” “I was the one outside gardening when I was a kid; I wasn’t doing housework or sewing on a machine,” she recalled. But she took up the challenge and signed up for a beginner’s class “all excited with my bag filled with fabric.” Next she bought a sewing machine. “I went into that shop every day for two weeks until the class started buying fabrics. That was the beginning.” Her passion is as strong today as it was when she first started collecting fabrics. “I’ve learned from some of the world’s best artists; they’re still my friends. I’ve

been very fortunate.” Piticco has quilted and taught at universities, guilds, continuing education programs and night school; she’s also taught youth. “I just want women to sew and quilt and embroider. There are a lot of crocheters, a lot of knitters, why not do something together? Maybe I can teach them something, maybe they can teach me. We need a venue in this little town.” Piticco has a “huge resource library” covering everything from quilting and bead work to needle felting and silk fusion -- “everything you can think of; my library is open for everybody to use.” Piticco also wants to get young people involved in fibre art. “I want to get kids off their cellphones and maybe have them embroider down the side of their jeans. I want to put a massive, colourful (pile) of fibres and threads in the middle of a table and get them using their hands. Kids naturally gravitate towards colour; they’re creative, let’s get them off their cellphones and using their fingers to stitch. It’s a lost art.” For more information on classes and other events call 705-696-1038 or visit Hastings resident Lynn Piticco, standing beside one of her favourite works called Lone Star, has opened up a gathering place www.aSingleStich.ca for local fibre artists called A Single Stitch at 4 Front St. East.

munication, playfulness, creativity and respect in the workplace. Many communities are already offering similar events for the corporate and business sector. Quinte Corporate Challenge is geared towards team building and improved communication skills by offering a day of challenging activities that

are sure to encourage camaraderie and laughter among employees. Corporations, businesses, organizations and other working groups are invited to enter a team of eight members in the June 20 event. The teams will complete eight tasks that promote team building and communication and the top three corporate teams will be recognized. The challenge will take place at Batawa Ski Hill with lunch being provided onsite for all participants. Sponsors are currently being recruited with Trenton Kiwanis and Market High Advertising being the first to extend their support. The entry fee is $250 per team to be paid by the corporation/business plus pledges collected by team members. All proceeds will go toward supporting youth and teens in Quinte West, specifically, programming at the Quinte West Youth Centre that teaches leadership skills, collaboration, team building, community engagement and skill building. The Quinte West Youth Centre is a charitable program operated by the Committee for Innovative Thinking for Youth and supported in part by the Ontario Trillium Foundation and the United Way of Quinte. Only 32 teams can be entered so enter early to ensure a spot. The events are being kept secret but rest assured there will be activities that tap into everyone’s skillset. Being athletic is not a requirement. The focus is on being open to try new things while working as a team.

of paper found on the grounds to Leo (a plastic lion inside a cage that’s actually a garbage can) – and Leo will roar with gratitude for being ‘fed’. Chapo told me that “children of all ages have enjoyed feeding Leo the Lion for almost 50 years now.” As I watched the children exploring this fascinating place, I was witness to a virtual sea of strollers around me, for there seemed to be a lot of young ones being ushered around by adults. There were also many older youngsters walking hand in hand with a parent or grandparent, and the small size of this zoo made this exploration much easier for all. The facility was handicapped accessible, too. Youngsters exploring this zoo can also participate in pony and train rides – and animal feedings. They seem to particularly enjoy the eye-level view of the world of the naked mole rats, as seen through a window, and those special

Lifestyles – When children visit the small, intimate, interactive zoo in Lincoln, Nebraska, they get an ‘up close and personal’ view of a great variety of animals – and they see many of these right at eye level – with even an opportunity to pet and feed some of them. Young children are the target audience at this particular zoo, accompanied, of course, by parents and/or grandparents – and they’ll find several interactive Zoofari stations located throughout the 10-acre site. These stations are intended to provide everyone with an in-depth learning experience, and they include explanatory videos narrated by Larry the Cable Guy. These videos are also offered, free of charge, to several children’s hospitals across the country. Lincoln Children’s Zoo President and CEO John Chapo said that, in this way, “Whether the children are in hospitals or can actually visit Lincoln Children’s Zoo, the new Zoofari series will entertain and enhance the entire zoo experience for thousands of children.” This award-winning zoo is home to more than 40 endangered species, including the Humboldt penguin, Matschie’s tree kangaroo, and Amur leopard. There are also such varied and interesting animals on site as dwarf crocodiles, pygmy hedgehogs, squirrel monkeys, naked mole rats, meerkats, lizards, armadillos, and golden lion tamarins. The zoo is committed to animal conservation and community education, and it participates in a national zoo breeding program. Recent successful births here have included pygmy marmosets, ring-tailed lemurs, red pandas, and a tammar wallaby. The Lincoln Children’s Zoo has been part of the community since 1965, and Parent Magazine has rated it as “among the nation’s best zoos for children”. I toured this intriguing facility with Chapo, and I was immediately struck by how clean the zoo was – and commented on this. He confided that much of the credit for this goes to Leo the Lion. Children can feed any scraps

Entertainment – Stirling – The Stirling Festival Theatre’s Young Company production of a Fairy Tale Ending had, well, pretty close to a fairy tale ending. Good crowds packed the theatre all week during March Break and the actors left with a memorable experience; one meant to simulate the life of theatre professionals. The Fairy Tale Ending was billed as an over-the-top, who-dun-it story with several popular fairy tale characters, including the Big Bad Wolf and Goldilocks. It was funny, suspenseful and musical, with all kinds of complicated key and tempo changes. After each show, the actors signed autographs for fans. Stirling Festival Theatre Managing Director David Vanderlip said he was pleased with how well the kids handled a challenging play. The Theatre’s Young Company program is for volunteer actors ranging in age 12 to 19. Nine cast members took part in this play after starting rehearsals in January. “They’ve worked really hard and it shows,” he said, adding that he was lucky to have several “veterans” in the cast, who had starred in other Young Company productions. “Some kids have been with me for three years.” Vanderlip said that many past participants in the Young Company program have gone on to study theatre or pursue acting as a career. The program is a great extra-curricular activity for high school students, as it gives them an opportunity to prepare rigorously for a performance in a professional theatre setting. With the Fairy Tale Ending production now over, the Young Company will shift its focus to its annual summer program. This summer it’s planning to stage the fun musical Footloose. Auditions will take place in June and the cast will rehearse through July, leading up to the show dates of Aug. 6 to 16. Another play will be staged in the fall. Vanderlip said he asks kids to audition for a spot in the Young Company, really because the experience of preparing material for an audition is a good exercise for them. But he tries to make room for anyone dedicated enough to attend rehearsals regularly. The students involved come from all over Quinte. One girl, he said, drove from Cloyne every weekend to take part in the show. Vanderlip and the Stirling Festival Theatre takes great pride in offering the program at no cost to the students. “It’s a labour of love,” Vanderlip said. The Fairy Tale Ending was a special performance for the company, because it was a Canadian original, authored and composed by Kieren MacMillan, the Stirling Festival Theatre’s music director for the past three years, with his writing partner Jeremy Hutton.

Best seats auction returns to Jamboree By Bill Freeman

true for Jamboree fans. The Best Seats initiative is also a chance for the CMH to raise public awareness about the hospital and cancer screening. “The Jamboree folks do a lot for the community,” Russell said backstage during last year’s Jamboree, “We’re not the only charity here, the Lions Club, the Rotary Club and the Girl Guides are here as well. So it’s a good opportunity to raise funds for the hospital but also to get the word out about what we’re doing. Right now the digital mammography unit is the highest priority piece of equipment for the hospital.” “Digital mammography and cancer

diagnostic equipment is something very near and dear to Paula and Ed (Jamboree owners Paula Chopik and Ed Leslie).” The digital mammography unit should be on site and receiving patients at Campbellford Memorial Hospital by mid-May, says Russell. In the next few weeks the hospital will also be taking delivery of a new anesthetic machine for its operating theatre. “Both items would not be possible without strong donor support.” To find out more about the Best Seats auction visit www.givetocmh. ca or www.havelockjamboree.com or http://bestseats.afrogs.org

Entertainment – Havelock-Belmont-Methuen – Country musicians are big-hearted performers and they demonstrated that last year by signing off on the very popular Best Seats in the House auction at the Havelock Country Jamboree which helped raise more than $15,000 for the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation’s digital mammography campaign. Well, fans can get up close and personal again with their musical favourites when the Best Seats in the House auction returns as part of the 25th anniversary Jamboree. “We’re honoured to continue the partnership, especially as part of the 25th anniversary,” says CMH Foundation executive director John Russell. This year’s auction will also help raise funds for cancer diagnostic equipment. “We had a good fundraiser last year, we raised a significant amount and we hope to surpass that this year,” says Russell. “We found out about it a little bit late last year; we have more lead time this year.” “You can change a life, save a life and have the best time of your life (at the Jamboree),” says a flyer announcing this year’s auction. The 25th anniversary Jamboree (Aug. 14-17) includes luminaries such as Allan Jackson, Dierks Bentley, Joe Nichols, Josh Turner, Kellie Pickler, Doc Walker, The Mavericks, Suzy Bogguss, Michelle Wright, Ambush, Charlie Major, Lisa Brokop, The Good Brothers and more.

JAMBOREE

Dr. Brian Ho According to recent studies, approximately 20% of North Americans suffer from a sleep problem. Problems with sleep affect both men and women of every race, age, and socioeconomic class. Although lack of sleep appears to be a benign problem, its effects are far reaching. One of the major causes of sleep deprivation is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is a complete cessation of breathing during sleep for at least 10 seconds. It affects men more than women and particularly individuals between the ages of 40 to 60. If OSA is left untreated, it can lead to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, arrhythmias, as well as sleep-deprived motor vehicle accidents.
