News - Quinte West - Parks Canada has agreed to attend the April 23 Economic Development and Revitalization Committee meeting to provide information on the waterways. “This will specifically relate to the seven locks in Quinte West,” noted Lisa Grills, supervisor of tourism and special events. She said representatives will also attend the grand opening on June 20 of the Trent Port Marina with presentations on boating through the lock system. Grills added that the docks are on schedule and will be fully functional by the long weekend, May 16. There have been 105 pre-registered boaters for the marina, including many from the GTA, drawn through marketing. Duncan Armstrong asked

if they were collecting data about where the boaters were coming from, specifically from other marinas. “There is a bit of everything,” Grills said. “The majority is from here: Hastings, Whitby, Cobourg, Brighton and several from Belleville.” Mayor Jim Harrison said they need to move as quickly as they can, with over 200 slips in place this year plus amenities. He noted the ice is still very thick. Doug Whitney said he hoped the ice is out by the time the Kiwanis fishing derby is here on May 1. Charlie Murphy said last year the ice was out by April 3. “I’m confident,” Murphy said. “The docks are already built. We have to wait until the ice is out then get them installed.” Whitney suggested they put out an old car on the ice Please see “Marina” on page 3

lion pulled the QHC complex through to a balanced budget as the year end nears. The board was also told that efforts are starting to develop a complete new “team approach� to health care for patients but it will probably take at least a year to get it all in place. The report also stressed that it will not significantly affect care by qualified nursing staff except for a few registered nurses. To the same end as the hospital complex struggles with adequate funding, board and staff members reported on a major “community engagement� project spread through all levels of the entire QHC community from Prince Edward to North Hastings and west to Brighton area. The hospital is hoping for active participation by a wide cross section of citizens and residents. Dates for such gatherings and locations will be announced in the near future.

Youth Get Fit for Business through YMCA program

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West Youth of all ages were invited to drop by the Quinte West YMCA on Tuesday, March 24, after 4:30 p.m. to participate in a fast-paced race about starting their own business. Participants pitched their business idea on camera and a winner was selected for a $200 grand prize. “We invited families to come in and have fun,� says Martha Palm-Leis, Youth Outreach Worker with the YMCA of Central East Ontario. “All ages participated

and we had a range of activities for youth of all ages.� Get Fit for Business is a partnership event between YMCA of Central East Ontario and the Small Business Centre (SBC). “The partnership is a natural fit for our organizations. We both want to see youth engaged with business and entrepreneurship,� said Kristina Lane, Youth Entrepreneurship Program Co-ordinator with the SBC. “Youth participated in a fast-paced competition that will have them developing

Each challenge helped the participant develop a section on their business idea such as target marketing, advertising, and expenses. Local entrepreneurs were at each station to help along the way. “This is a fun way for youth to get involved in entrepreneurship while competing for a grand prize,� said Palm-Leis. “It will also connect them to an amazing summer job opportunity.� Get Fit for Business will promote the Ontario Summer Company program locally delivered by SBC in Belleville. The program is designed for 15- to 29-yearold students, who are returning to school in the fall, to start their very own summer business. “Summer Company provides students with a grant up to a $3,000 to start their

own summer business, training, mentoring, a ton of fun, and an experience to last a lifetime,� said Lane. Applications for Summer Company are made at <www. ontario.ca/summercompany> and are now open. Deadline to apply is May 8, 2015.

and take bets on when it sinks, like they used to do. “We made a lot of money on that,� he said. Harrison noted there are anchors in place in the bedrock for the docks. Grills added there are about 70 boaters registered for the Robert Patrick Marina. Jamie Fellows asked about the Fraser Park Marina. Grills said there will still be a gas pump at Fraser Park. Bob Forder is configuring the slip configuration there for transient boaters. Doug Whitney asked if

there was a charge for using those docks. Grills said they will be directed to the new marina for overnight stays. Shuttle services will be provided from the marina for special events, through Quinte Access. A dedicated bus is available for $30 an hour and will be included in the operating budgets of those events. The fully functional marina is projected by the long weekend in May. The grand opening date is set for Saturday, June 20, from 1 to 4 p.m. Details to be announced.

Meal or No Meal activity teaches leaders about poverty By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - How do you survive if you’re a middle-aged man who’s been laid off from a factory and is now on social assistance? Or if you’re a retired senior woman living on a fixed government pension? Or if you’re a member of a family of four, with two parents making minimum wage? The answer, as those who participated in a recent Community Development Council of Quinte (CDC) event found out, is not easily. Basic living expenses such as housing and hydro are so high now that people often choose to go without healthy food. And those who live with limited incomes are at the most risk of running out of money, and incurring debt, especially when unexpected life events happen. That’s the basic message out of an exercise called Meal or No Meal that CDC Quinte staff have been inviting civic and business leaders to during March. The exercise was played out at Maranatha Church in Belleville recently, where among the guests were city councillors, such as Egerton Boyce, and JoAnne Lewis, an employee of the Hastings & Prince Edward Poverty Roundtable. Guests to the event were given a character and asked to plan out a living budget for them, based on their limited income. They were then asked to rework the budget, following an unexpected scenario. For instance, the middle-aged man lost his driver’s licence. The woman had a sick dog at the same time she was expecting to travel to a wedding. “The common theme is that the easi-

Laundry room fire damages Pine Street home News - Belleville - At 3:34 a.m. on Friday, March 27, the Belleville Fire Department received a call for a structure fire on Pine Street, in the city’s east end. Upon arrival there were two occupants from the home, waiting outside the residence, who advised that there was a fire in the basement. Under the incident command of Captain Steve Lucas, firefighters entered the home and discovered a fire in the basement laundry room. The fire was quickly extinguished and the damage was minimal. The cause of this fire is not suspicious in nature, but the Fire Department launched an investigation. Damage was estimated at approximately $5,000.

est budget to take money from is your Bancroft and Bloomfield, too. “People food budget,” said Lewis, who partici- who are struggling to pay their bills are pated in the game when it was offered in often forced to sacrifice their budget for

healthy food.” Lewis found the activity is beneficial to anyone who wants a true understanding of what it’s like to be poor. And she believes it reinforces the need to raise awareness of social services to the public. “It makes you stop and think about how you would make those decisions if you were in that situation,” she said. “Fortunately, I know the resources to go to for help, but many people don’t know where to go. And the services vary across the counties.” At the end of the activity, participants had an opportunity to share their thought and discuss ways community groups can work together to solve poverty issues. Lewis said she believes poverty has to be solved through a collaborative effort; one that involves government, social services and business leaders working together, along with people living in poverty themselves. “From my perspective, it’s about breaking down the silos and looking at broad issues; about what individuals need in their lives to be happy. It can’t be about looking at one specific thing.” CDC Quinte Executive Director Ruth Ingersoll said she was pleased with how the event went and the discussions they led to. Like Lewis, she believes that solv-

ing poverty requires a collaborative approach. She also believes leaders must work toward “sustainable” solutions. “I’d love to say we don’t need food banks anymore,” she said. “They were supposed to be temporary measure and they’ve become an institution.” She said the city of Belleville is on the right track, through measures such as its Community Garden program and its support of CDC Quinte and its Good Food Box program, which offers fruits and vegetables to residents at prices cheaper than grocery stores. But she believes more work can be done to make housing cheaper, such as encouraging builders to earmark some units in large buildings as “affordable units.” “I think all of those solutions require all of the sectors to be at the table; the municipal government, business people, social services,” she said. The CDC Quinte plays a leading role in working on poverty issues; an important task locally given that the Hastings-Prince Edward region has the second highest rate of food insecurity in the province, according to a report from the local health unit. “People always ask me ‘Why is food insecurity so high here?’” Ingersoll said. “Well, people are paying too much on housing, they’re not making enough and then there’s all this other stuff.”

County plans modest budget increase By Jack Evans

News - Belleville - Despite major new capital commitments, Hastings County Council Thursday passed its 2015 budget showing only a minor one per cent increase in its levy. Part of new capital costs includes a special levy of $130,000 toward a fiveyear capital plan. There are also major expenditures on long-term-care facilities and affordable housing with many new units scheduled to start this year.

Another new expenditure is seen as planning for the future in terms of staffing with a large majority of staff at or nearing retirement age. The budget includes $20,000 for a part-time training position in the administration office. The county also benefitted from a healthy surplus of almost $380,000 from last year, some of which went into general capital and a portion into contingency reserve.

VEHICLE TENDER Quinte Conservation is currently seeking to purchase a new or late model, two-wheel or all-wheel drive Minivan with low mileage. It should be equipped with air conditioning and power locks and doors. White is the preferred colour. Tenders may be faxed (613-968-8240), emailed (nmarshall@quinteconservation.ca) or delivered (2061 Old Highway 2, Belleville) in sealed envelopes clearly marked “Vehicle Tender” up until noon on Friday, April 17, 2015. Tenders for more than 1 vehicle may be submitted in the same envelope. Quinte Conservation reserves the right to refuse any or all tenders. For more information, please contact Terry Murphy at 613-968-3434 ext 103.

The county’s total budget of $128,695,560 for this year is up almost $4 million from last year or 3.17 per cent. Revenue is up 3.38 per cent for a total of $115,720,413, leaving a levy for 2015 of $170,337, up 1.33 per cent. The county’s budget is complicated with inter-commitments with Belleville and Quinte West and even Prince Edward County for services

such as health unit, emergency services and especially social assistance. A substantial part of the levy increase is offset by new assessment growth totalling more than $88,000. The county has also tweaked its rates for rent for various premises, but must still cover union and non-union staff increases, some of which are pre-set. The budget passed unanimously with little or no comment.

OPINION

Intergalactic pirates again Editorial - I really liked the furious debate that broke out recently among astronomers about whether we should send out signals to the universe saying “we’re here.” It implicitly assumes that somehow, if your science is really advanced, then interstellar travel is possible. I like it because I Gwynne Dyer hate the idea that the human race will never be able to go beyond this little planetary system “far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy,” as Douglas Adams put it in his Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. We need somebody to do to Einstein’s physics what Einstein did to Newton’s. But while we’re waiting for that, it’s good to know that some quite grown-up scientists (astronomers, not physicists, admittedly, but I’ll take whatever I can get) think it’s worth having a debate about whether we should take the risk of letting all the aliens know we are here. I missed the debate when it took place at the American Association for the Advancement of Science’s annual conference in San Jose last month because I was on Mars at the time. (Well, somewhere that felt quite like Mars, anyway.) But here are a couple of quotes to give the flavour of it. “Any society that could come here and ruin our whole day by incinerating the planet already knows we are here,” said Dr. Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer and Director at the Center for SETI (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) Institute in California. Not so fast, said space scientist and sciencefiction writer David Brin. “The arrogance of shouting into the cosmos without any proper risk assessment defies belief. It is a course that would put our grandchildren at risk,” he said. If we send them messages, they may come here and enslave us. Or just eat us. Now, the traditional way to shut this debate down is to point out that we’ve already been sending out radio and television signals for a hundred years. Therefore, any intergalactic pirates within a hundred light-years of here already know where we are. But it turns out that this isn’t actually true: our radio and television signals begin to fade into the background radio static beyond about one light-year away. Since the nearest star is more than four light-

years away, there’s not much chance that the Klingons or Vogons or whoever you’re worried about knows we’re here yet. (And there goes the plot of Galaxy Quest.) On the other hand, powerful radar signals of the kind that we have been using to map the surface of other planets and moons in our own system travel a very long way, and we’ve already been sending them out for over 20 years. They don’t carry much information–they just say “somebody here can generate microwave radiation”–but just that might be enough to attract unwelcome attention. This new debate is actually about “active SETI.” We have been doing “passive SETI”–listening for messages from civilisations around other stars– for more than 40 years already, using large radio telescopes that can pick up very faint signals. But there are quite strict rules about who should reply if they do get a message. The First Protocol, drafted by the International Academy of Astronautics SETI Panel in 1989, says that “no transmission in response to a signal or other evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence should be sent until appropriate international consultations have taken place.” But the advocates of “active SETI” want to scrap that and send out an “all call” to the universe. One of the reasons the debate has got more heated is that we now know planets are as common as dirt. It’s only 20 years since the first confirmed discovery of an “exoplanet,” but now we know of 1,906 of them, mostly orbiting relatively nearby stars and a very small proportion showing Earthlike characteristics. (But the actual number of Earth-like planets may be much higher, since it’s a lot easier to find gas-giants like Jupiter or Saturn.) There are probably hundreds of thousands of planets in our vicinity (there are 260,000 stars within 250 light-years). If even a mere few thousand of them are Earth-like, then it is imaginable that somebody might come calling in response to the messages we send–if, and only if, it is possible to travel at near- or trans-light speeds. Nobody knows how light-speed travel could be done, and our current understanding of physics says that it can’t be done. But this would be a very silly debate if scientists were really all convinced that there is no possibility of getting around the current speed limit. They will never say that it might be possible, because they cannot suggest how it might be done and the risk to their reputations would therefore be extreme. But they are quite happy to engage in a debate that would be totally irrelevant if they didn’t think there is a chance that we or some other civilisation in our galactic vicinity will eventually figure out how to do it. And that cheers me up considerably.

My MLB prediction: Jays end season in morgue By Stephen Petrick Editorial - A few weeks ago I wrote in this space about the dysfunction of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Now I thought I’d pen my thoughts on the team that keeps Ontario sports fans miserable for the other six months of the year. Normally this time of year I’m looking forward to the start of the Major League Baseball season, with hopes that the Toronto Blue Jays can finally end their playoff drought. Not this year. Thanks to a Greek comedy-like sequence of blunders the Jays season is over before it has started. It started in late February when newly acquired Canadian outfielder Michael Saunders tripped over a lawn sprinkler while fielding fly balls at the team’s spring training facility in Dunedin, Florida. It continued days later when their best pitcher, Marcus Stroman, suffered a season-ending injury during a bunt drill. Days later outfielder Kevin Pillar was shut down from baseball activities for a week when he injured himself from–wait for it– sneezing. Can’t make this stuff up. Slugger Edwin Encarnacion, closer Brent Cecil and infielder Maicer Isturiz have also spent time on the disabled list during spring training. If the rest of the team can make it to September standing on two legs, the season should be considered a success. So here’s my prediction on what else we can expect from the Jays in 2015. The team’s best player, Jose Bautista, will miss time after poking himself in the eye with a straw during a Booster Juice commercial. Newly acquired star catcher Russell Martin will miss the season after Quebec sovereignist rebels kidnap him during the team’s upcoming trip to his native Montreal. (They want to claim him as their own.) Jose Reyes catches an infection when a robin builds a nest in his long beard. New prized third baseman Josh Donaldson will injure himself when a stray R.A. Dickey knuckleball hits him in just

the wrong way. The entire bullpen ends of needing Tommy John surgery. By August, the whole team will say screw it and just head to Cancun. That’s okay. Other teams will have problems this year too. New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez, fresh off his year-long suspension for performance-enhancing drug use, will injure his legs while running away from a Manhattan media thong. And Boston Red Sox newly acquired slugger Pablo Sandoval will be put on the disabled list after the team realizes he’s 95 pounds overweight. (That’s a pound for every $1 million of his contract.) In the National League, all teams other than the Los Angeles Dodgers will cease to exist after the LA ownership buys every single player, just to ensure they win a league title. Then they’ll lose in the World Series to the American League winning Kansas City Royals, who are in the final for a second straight year, despite having one of baseball’s lowest payrolls. On a serious note, more than a few people have asked me why I love baseball so much since, to many, it’s more boring than watching paint dry. There’s numerous answers to that question, and I won’t get to them all here. But one thing I’ll say is that to be a baseball fan, you don’t have to watch every game, every inning, or every pitch. The six-month-long MLB season plays out like a romantic-comedy sitcom. It involves countless storylines, dramatic moments that interrupt dullness and unpredictable ups and downs. The Jays are more likely to end the season in the morgue than as World Series champs but that doesn’t mean we can’t have fun watching, laughing or crying all season long. The summer will still bring plenty of towering home runs and collisions at home plate. Hopefully, Canada’s lone team will be competitive or, at least, entertaining. Let’s just hope no one else sneezes.

Taxpayers on the hook for average increase of 4.5 per cent News - Quinte West Taxpayers have been told to “bite the bullet” and pay an average 4.5 per cent increase in taxes this year. Trenton Ward will pay 3.8 per cent more, Sidney and Murray both with 5.1 per cent and Frankford with 4.6 per cent. David Clazie, director of finance, told council that last year they paid 1.9 per cent average increase, but this year there was little choice but to pay for all

the services that are needed to keep the city running smoothly. Several delegations appeared to convince council to give them the donations they needed to keep going. This included Jared Phillips of the CITY Youth Group asking for $20,000, Jason Wryghte of the Frankford Youth Centre asking for $10,000, Barb Flieler of Trenton Curling Club, asking for $20,000, Ike MacDonald of the Trenton Seniors Club 105 ask-

CAO provides weekly updates on marina News - Quinte West - CAO Charlie Murphy is providing weekly updates on the status of the Trent Port Marina. “As the May long weekend and the start of the boating season approaches, the city will be preparing weekly status updates on any matters relating to construction progress of the Trent Port Marina,” Murphy says. “While the dredging and shoreline reconstruction components of the project were completed in November, the building and site works, as well as the docks and breakwater fabrication are currently in progress.” Following a meeting on Friday, March 20, 2015, with Kehoe Marine, the primary contractor for the construction of the floating docks and breakwaters, the City was presented with a revised schedule for the completion and installation of these works. The schedule for the installation of the docks is still on track for full installation of the south basin docks (212 slips) and all dock services before the May

long weekend. The south breakwater will also be completely installed by the May holiday weekend to provide protection to boats. Recent design alterations on the north and east breakwaters has delayed casting of the concrete modules, and both of these breakwaters will now be installed by the end of June. While this is a delay of approximately six weeks for the installation of these breakwaters, the design changes were required in order to satisfy the city that the structural integrity of the breakwater units was sufficient for the location. Both the contractor, Kehoe Marine, and the city’s engineer have confirmed that the marina can be operational with only the south breakwater installed. Twentytwo of the seasonal boaters who have preregistered for the outermost slips of the marina basin will be temporarily assigned alternative interior slips with identical services, until such time as the east breakwater is installed in June.

Council approved funding for the delegations except for the curling club which was reduced to $10,000 and the Pipes and Drums to $10,000. A request from the Stirling Agricultural Fair for $1,000 was denied, and a $300 request from the Chamber of Commerce for their AGM was also denied. A request for $3,000 for National Service Dogs was reduced to $1,500. The new total of all community assistance fund applications was $82,200, reduced by $2,800. Rob MacIntosh requested that the Public Works enhancement budget for ditching and tree removal be kept in the budget as a safety issue for rural residents, as well as any winter control needed. Terry Cassidy urged council to

bring the tax rate down. “People are struggling to survive,” he said. “The city needs to be compassionate. There are seniors and the disabled trying to stay in their homes.” David McCue said they need to pay more this year to get things in line. “We have to bite the bullet,” he said. Mike Kotsovos warned that service men and women will look at the high tax rate in Quinte West and choose to locate in Belleville. Fred Kuypers pointed out that 1.9 and 4.6 per cent is too big a difference all at once. Karen Sharpe also wanted to “shave a little off” but realized that enhancements were necessary. Mayor Jim Harrison commented, “I hope people can understand. There are a number of things next year that have to be completed. They are not Councillor Rob MacIntosh wants to ensure that rural services are maintained. Photo: Kate Everson all in the budget.”

Jonathan Maracle presents inspiring concert to Youth Centre By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Jonathan Maracle presented a Committed to Life concert at the Quinte West Youth Centre on March 25. “I get young people to tap into their own gifts and abilities,â€? he said. “I show them how.â€? Maracle brought his guitar and handmade drums, utes and rattles to demonstrate his Mohawk ancestry and communicate to the youth. This is his second time at the youth centre. He also showed a presentation of places he has travelled all around the world, talking to people of all nations communicating a message

of restoration, dignity, selfrespect and the Creator’s love of all cultures. His website at <www.brokenwalls.com> describes the band he works with including Kris Delorenzi from Thunder Bay and Bill Pagaran from Alaska. “The message is restoring self-respect wherever people are suffering from shame,� he said. “Broken Walls has a desire to see people of all nations walk in their gifts and destinies that they were created with.� The band also performs with native dancers for full musical cultural experiences. Jonathan Maracle is from the Tyendinaga Mohawk Ter-

ritory and had a Mohawk father and Scottish mother. “I realized I hated the Scottish,â€? he admitted. “But then I came round. I’m going to visit Scotland this year for the ďŹ rst time.â€? He brought with him a Scottish Claymore broadsword replica, almost as tall as he is. Jonathan has been playing music since he was 17 years old. Now at 60 with a wife, four children and three grandchildren, he has produced nine albums, won music awards, and runs a recording studio in Tyendinaga when he’s not on tour. “I get calls every day to go somewhere,â€? he said. “I bring a message of hope.â€? Jonathan says suicide is very common in most of the native communities he visits. He tries to restore self-respect, dignity and a sense of values to these young people. “Some are so put down and ashamed of their heritage,â€? he said. “We try to stir up positive thoughts of their culture.â€? He noted that the Ojibway people have the highest rate of suicide in the world. “It’s heart-breaking,â€? he says. “They are mostly young, under 16 or 18 years old.â€?

Jonathan for what he does with young people. “It’s a great honour to have you here,� she said. Several of the young people were invited to join Jonathan at the drums.

Site in North Murray Industrial Park is investment ready By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - A 51-acre site in the North Murray Industrial Park has been awarded an Investment Ready: CertiďŹ ed Site by the Ministry of Economic Development, Employment and Infrastructure. “The beneďŹ ts of this designation include specialized marketing, a proďŹ le of the site on the ministry website and at global investment trade shows,â€? noted Linda Lisle, manager of Economic Development and Tourism Services. “This will provide a signiďŹ cant amount of exposure internationally.â€? Now that the site is certiďŹ ed, the city is entitled to receive reimbursements of up to 50 per cent of eligible costs, capped at $25,000. This includes surveys, environmental studies, archaeological studies and a title search. “These sites can be an im-

portant incentive for companies, especially for those looking to move quickly on getting a new facility up and running,â€? she adds. “Working with a certiďŹ ed site that is shovel-ready can signiďŹ cantly reduce the development schedule, and that time-savings is a huge commodity for developers.â€? Lisle told the Economic Development and Revitalization Committee that the city, along with Belleville, is participating again in the Quinte Region Career and Training Fair. This will be held April 16 at the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. City staff are working with Bob Forder, manager of Buildings and Facilities, on a second capital project which includes the installation of new lighting under the Front Street Farmers’ Market structure, to be complete by open-

ing season on May 2. The city is also working with the IT department on a new website redesign. It will include updated features such as a new navigational system, a new business directory and a new communication platform. John Harris asked why the city had put out two booklets to promote the city, one with a Belleville ad on the inside cover. He also pointed out some photographs that he could not identify as being in Quinte West. He said the booklets were too big to ďŹ t in a purse or put on the side pocket of a car. Lisle said there are actually three promotion documents, a Discovery Guide, Residents Guide and ProďŹ les for Business. She said they serve different purposes for the city, including a community proďŹ le.

cal clinic on the base but no hospital. However, he works for DND and can’t get too involved. Harrison noted that John McDonald said he will donate $1 from every fan at the Trenton Golden Hawks playoff games at the arena to the Our TMH fund. Matt Richardson said $30 million in five years is a sobering amount. He felt it would take a lot of work to find these savings. Helen Urquhart asked if all four hospitals in QHC are in the same funding formula. Wendy Warner said QHC is lobbying to get this changed. Right now we are being treated like a single hospital in the GTA. “We need to continue to lobby as well,” she said. She added that Step One is to approach the Ministry of Health and Step Two to approach QHC who decides where the money is spent.

This area is not growing as fast as others, although we have more seniors who need more care. Frank Barry asked Wendy Warner why people should donate to TMH when equipment is going to Belleville. Warner explained that the Foundation is a separate organization from QHC with its own board. Its responsibility is to raise money for equipment for Trenton hospital not funded by the government. She said that is how the CTscan got into Trenton, bought by the community. Warner added that if The council chamber was almost full at the Our TMH second public meeting.

News - Quinte West - “Things are moving rapidly,” said Our TMH committee chair Mike Cowan in a public update at city hall on March 25. He said the committee is working hard to save services at the hospital and any volunteers are welcome to help out. He noted that MPP Lou Rinaldi is also “pulling his weight” at Queen’s Park. “Our major concerns are the doctor shortage,” he noted. “We have three doctors leaving. We need help to get doctors back.” Mayor Jim Harrison said there are two young doctors very interested in coming here. Kim Scott said they need more incentives to attract doctors. “Nobody wants to work at TMH,” he said. “They’re treated like dirt and run off their feet. We need doctors to come in and feel comfortable here, then get involved in TMH.” Harrison said the municipality is limited legally to what it can do to attract doctors. They already offer $100,000 plus $15,000 for expenses. “We’re at the max,” he said. Helen Urquhart said she listened to Quinte Health Care talk about replacing RNs with RPNs. “They said it didn’t matter since they all do the same thing,” she noted. “They all went to the same school, some for two years, some for four. I think we should replace some of the administration.” Sharon Morris said her mother would have died at the hospital if an experienced nurse had not been there. Wendy Warner, executive director of TMH Foundation, said there are 25 doctors in the community but only a handful have hospital privileges. “We need you to tell ten friends, we need your voice,” she said. “We need doctors with hospital privileges. Ask them why not.” She said everyone here is an ambassador for TMH. It is difficult to recruit new doctors in small communities, competing with larger centres and even other rural centres. “We need another carrot,” she said. “How about quality of life?” She said it’s time for people to step up, offer ideas. Let the QHC and LHIN know what we want. “It’s not a done deal,” she said. Warner noted that in five years QHC has to find $30 million in savings. We have until September to get moving with input on what we can do to secure our hospital. Brenda Ingram said there were 35,000 emergency visits to TMH last year. What would happen if there was nowhere to go? Someone asked if anyone had contacted the air base to get on board and influence the government. Tom Kupecz, president of the National Association of Federal Retirees, Quintrent Branch, said he approached the Wing Commander who was very supportive. There is a medi-

CCS launches Daffodil Month with help from famous firefighter By Stephen Petrick

10 Quinte West News - Thursday, April 2, 2015

News - Belleville - Ray Ellis has long been one of the local faces behind the fight against cancer. Now he’s becoming a nationally recognized person, too. Ellis, a member of the Belleville Fire Department, is the subject of a photo being used on Canadian Cancer Society banners and websites across Canada as the charity celebrates Daffodil Month. During April, CCS volunteers will be selling the yellow flower and handing out daffodil pins, as they solicit donations. The money they collect will fund life-saving research and support local services for Canadians touched by cancer. At a kickoff event at Nicholson Catholic College on Monday, Ellis said he didn’t realize when he posed for a picture in his firefighters’ gear that the image would go coast to coast. But he said he’s fine with it, so long as it helps raise money for those battling the disease. “I’m always up for whatever they need me to do,” he said. Ellis rode a bike across Canada in 2005 to raise money for cancer research and also participated in a 24-hour bike-a-thon

the next year to raise funds. At that time, he was doing it for several colleagues and family members who had been affected by cancer. But a few years later, cancer began to impact him in a more personal way. He was diagnosed with Barrett Syndrome, a lung condition that can potentially lead to cancer. He now gets tested regularly and has a renewed desire to take part in cancer fundraisers. “We all deal with it,” he said. “There’s no point in time that I don’t think about it. Cancer affects everybody.” Fortunately for Ellis and others touched by cancer, the local CCS office is getting ready for a big month of fundraising, with help from more youth than ever before. The kickoff was held at Nicholson Catholic College because a number of students from the Belleville school have signed up to help with the Daffodil Month. They represent some of the roughly 500 youth involved in this year’s campaign, a large group that’s the result of the work of CCS volunteer engagement co-ordinator Tracey Reid. Amy Doyle, the manager of the CCS’s Hastings-Prince Edward County Community Office, said CCS canvassers will be in

local neighbourhoods throughout the month, but they won’t be asking for money at the door. They’ll be dropping off door hangers that give people information on how to donate and tell stories about people battling cancer. It’s the first time the local CCS office has tried such a campaign, and it’s based on the fact that fewer people today have cash ready at the door. This campaign encourages them to mail in a cheque or donate online. And Doyle said she’s thrilled to have the youth turnout. “It’s unprecedented to have this many youth in our community come forward,” she said. Doyle is also pleased to have a national spokesperson like Ellis in her own community. In other communities, kickoff events are taking place with photos of Ellis displayed on banners. But in the Quinte area, “we have the real Ray,” Doyle said. “We’re pretty excited about that.” More information on locations where daffodils can be purchased is expected to be released in the coming days. In the meantime, for more information on Daffodil Month visit <www.cancer.ca>.

Firefighters help deliver Meals on Wheels This delivery celebrated “March for Meals,” an initiative in its 13th year, which sees Meals on Wheels programs throughout Ontario reaching out to their communities to raise public awareness and build support for this important service. This program offers a nutritious meal, a friendly smile and a safety check which help to keep seniors healthy and living in their own homes for as long as possible. Making our communities stronger and healthier is a vital partnership between organizations such as VON, Meals on Wheels were delivered on March 24 by (front) Duncan Armstrong, Tony Hannam, Bea Lelocal businesses, and caring Clair, Gilda Dorph, Paul LeClair, Julia Gosson (VON), Kim Hinks and Mayor Jim Harrison; (back) Quinte West firefighters Greg King, Bill Barber, Tim Hennessey and Ryan McNaught.

Task groups replace subcommittees in economic development

By Kate Everson

years with the downtown revitalization committee. He asked if there would be continued revitalization on streetscape projects and who is doing it. CAO Charlie Murphy said future streetscape projects are in the capital works budget. Doug Whitney noted that streetscape projects are already under way. Mayor Jim Harrison added that the Frankford project will begin this year. Chair Mike Kotsovos asked the committee to choose eight colours from the heritage colour palette to be in the city design. Duncan Armstrong asked if that would conflict with a business’ national brand colours. Lisle said it is not part of the approved colour scheme, they would have to bring in a sample for approval. Doug Whitney commented that if people are paying for improvements with their own money, how can the city tell them what colour to paint their busi-

ness. “I know what I’d tell them to do,” he said. Rob MacIntosh asked how the city would tell them. “If they say no, do we tell them to go somewhere else?” he asked. Glenn Kozak said many new subdivisions impose integrity designs so that the homes are not mismatched. He added that some companies have a specific design they can use as long as it does not dominate or be overbearing but in keeping with the urban landscape. Kotsovos said it should not be a deterrent. Jim Harrison asked how they would control this. Who is responsible? CAO Charlie Murphy said there are legislative limitations with architectural control, according to policies in the Official Plan. In 2005 they discussed this and decided not to go to that level. The Planning Act allows broader control in urban design. He suggested they take this back to the Planning Department.

News - Quinte West - Three task groups will replace the subcommittees formerly part of the Economic Development and Revitalization Committee. “The committee chair has recommended establishing task groups to address specific issues relating to local initiatives or business development,” reported Linda Lisle, manager of Economic Development and Tourism Services. A task group will be more implementation oriented, have a defined expiry date and can include members of the committee as well as other interested members of the public or specific organizations if needed. The three groups are: Marketing and Promoting, Business Retention and Expansion, and the Quinte West Farmers’ Market. Glenn Kozak commented that there have been very significant capital improvements in the eight

Trenton hangs on, beats Kingston 1 - 0 vantage when Kingston’s Cole Bolton was sent off for hooking. Chrisitian Lloyd provided the assist. Justin Kapelmaster spearheaded the defensive effort for the Golden Hawks, as he did not allow a puck past him and made 28 saves for the shutout. The solid play of Kapelmaster will be reflected in his goals against average, which pre-game was 2.46. The Golden Hawks excelled on the penalty kill, not giving up a single goal in four chances.

The Voyageurs were unable to stop Trenton from sending pucks toward the net, and the Golden Hawks eventually piled up 31 shots on goal. Other players who recorded assists for Trenton were Zach de Concilys, who had one. Trenton incurred eight minutes in penalty time with four minors. Daniel Urbani rejected 30 shots on goal for Kingston. The Voyageurs incurred four minutes in penalty time with two minors.

On The Rocks: Trenton Curling Club News

Sports - On the last weekend of the winter, 18 teams converged on the club for the annual Mixed Skins Bonspiel. A Skins-Spiel is the curling equivalent to bowling for dollars, in this case with a prize purse of $3,975. A “skin” represents an end and each skin is worth money. Win the end and collect the cash. When a team has the hammer, it must score two points and, conversely, without the hammer, a team must steal a point to win the skin. If no one makes his or her score, the skin carries over until it is won. Up until the mid-1980s, before the free guard zone was introduced, watching curling on TV was about as exciting as watching paint dry. TSN, in partnership with McCain’s, introduced the skins format, which led to more rocks in play and made curling eminently more viewable (and no, the skin does not refer to a McCain’s potato peel). There are three historical explanations for the term and

each of them has their origin in golf. Since both sports originated in Scotland, I’ll relate that one. It seems that the Scottish fur traders, returning from the New World with their bundles of pelts, would debark and head straight for the links (even before taking a bath or saying hi to the missus). Not much has changed for golfers in 400 years. The winner of each hole would select a pelt from the other bundles, and in the case of a tie score, the “skin” would carry over to the next hole. Now back to the future to our bonspiel where as long as a team kept winning, it kept advancing until the field was reduced to six teams in three division finals. Each skin in the A, B and C finals were worth $50, $40, and $30 each with the last end worth an extra $10 to prevent ties. The C event had Tom Allore playing Vince Brennan (both from Trenton CC). Allore took an early 3 - 1 lead after four ends,

but Brennan fought back, ending with a measure and a tie score in the eighth. The higher skin value in the eighth gave Brennan the win. The B event matched Bill Tripp (Quinte CC) with Jerry Whyte (Trenton CC). Tripp took an early 4 - 0 lead on carry-overs, but Whyte fought back, tying the game in the eighth. Once again, the higher point value of the eighth skin gave Whyte the game. In the A event, Randy Hutchinson (Quinte CC) took a 4 - 0 lead over Jeff Clark (Northumberland CC) after four ends. The fifth was carried forward and was taken by Clark in the sixth. The seventh was also a carry over, with Hutchinson taking the skin in the final end for a 6 - 2 win. This was the first time in the bonspiel’s history that the same team won two years in Mixed Skin Spiel winners (l-r) lead Lisa Grills, second Peter Aker, vice Kerri Lott, and skip Randy Hutchinson.

Vet clinic receives training to care for injured turtles

By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - For turtles, nesting season is around the corner and that often comes with deadly consequences. The sight of injured or dead turtles on the sides of roads is common in May and June, as female turtles often cross roads in the spring to find dry sand to lay eggs in, only to be hit by cars. Fortunately, for friends of the hard-shelled species, a Belleville veterinary clinic has formed a partnership with the Kawartha Turtle Trauma Centre that will hopefully save some turtle lives. It’s an important step because seven of eight turtle species found in Ontario are considered at risk and one of the biggest threats to their existence is road deaths, said Sue Carstairs, the executive director of the Trauma Centre. Carstairs visited Bay Regional Veterinary Hospital in eastend Belleville on Thursday, March 25, to train two vets, Dr. Linda Hack and Dr. Naomi Scromeda, on how to treat injured turtles. Now, the vet clinic can take in injured turtles (at no cost) and give them basic treatments before delivering them to the Trauma Centre, located just outside Peterborough. Scromeda and Hack said they found the training interesting and hope they can contribute to preserving turtle species this summer. They feel it will benefit turtle lovers in Belleville, who may not be able to take an injured turtle up to the Trauma Centre directly. One of the messages all three women want to get out is that turtles are worth saving, even if they seem close to death. “They can recover from things that no other species can,” said Carstairs. They pointed out that as long as there’s a head to turtle, there’s a chance it can be saved. And even if the turtle is dead, it’s still worth bringing in, as eggs from a dead female can sometimes still be harvested. The role of Bay Regional Veterinary Hospital in this partnership will be to Bay Regional Veterinary Hospital Doctors Naomi Scromeda (left) and Linda Hack (right) flank Sue Carstairs of the Kawartha Turtle Trauma Centre. The two vets received training to help injured turtles. Please see “Hundreds” on page B3 Photo: Stephen Petrick

Castleton couple lands another award for kale chip business By John Campbell

News - Colborne - It’s been one award after another the past three months for Adrian and Draupadi Quinn. It all began last December when the couple won the Premier Award for AgriFood Innovations for growing kale and turning the leaves into air-dried chips high in fibre at their Kaley Acres farm near Castleton. Since then Brandneu Foods Canada Inc., the grassroots company they created in 2014 with Ecoideas Innovations Inc., in Markham, to produce and distribute the chips across Canada and into the United States, has collected three more awards. Northumberland County was the first to honour them locally. The Town of Cobourg and Northumberland Central Chamber of Commerce followed suit early in March, and, last Friday, Cramahe Township made it three in a row by naming Brandneu Foods the municipality’s best new business at its Business Achievement Awards. “Out of all the awards they’ve won this has to be the most recent,” Mayor Marc Coombs quipped in making the announcement at the Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre in Colborne. “These folks have come a long way,” winning awards at the regional and provincial level, Northumberland-Quinte West MPP Lou Rinaldi said. “That’s something to be proud of.” Adrian Quinn, president of Brandneu

Foods, said he and his wife were “honoured and a little shocked and in disbelief to be getting so much acknowledgment for kale.” They never imagined that was in their future when, “a little bit crazy,” they bought a “semi-derelict” former tobacco farm in 2010, during “tough economic times.” Their venture grew into Brandneu Foods, which now operates out of a

70,000-square-foot building in Cobourg and manufactures 12 flavours of nutrientrich kale chips. “It’s very exciting times,” Quinn said of the rapid expansion his company has enjoyed to meet demand. Last year it planted kale on 48 acres with the help of local farmers, and “we’re increasing that by 50 per cent this year,” he said, and the plan is to have “at least a

thousand acres” in production by 2019. “Northumberland will begin feeding the world kale.” Its success has been largely thanks to the employees, said Quinn, who pointed out they have been working six days a week to fill a big order from Bulk Barn. The couple started out with Kokimo Candles, which is currently “in the middle of a facelift” in advance of its 20th

anniversary next year. Quinn welcomed the advent of the Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre, saying it will help his company diversify into other commodities and products. “We don’t have space to develop those formulations in our own facilities,” he said. “We’re going to be doing a lot of work here with some of the new products [being planned].”

Agri-food Venture Centre given more funding as opening day approaches By John Campbell

News - Colborne - The Ontario AgriFood Venture Centre, just weeks away from opening its doors for business, has received an additional $225,000 in funding from the federal government. Northumberland-Quinte West MP Rick Norlock, who made the announcement at the centre March 27, said the money is being provided by a network of Community Futures Development Corporations in eastern Ontario who “see the value” of a niche food small batch processing facility for vegetable and fruit growers in the region. The grant, made available through the Eastern Ontario Development Program Collaborative Projects stream, raises

the total amount the corporations have provided for the project to almost a halfmillion dollars, Norlock said. Northumberland County director of economic development and tourism Dan Borowec said the “pay-to-play” facility in Colborne’s industrial park ”will help in many ways create second-source income” for farmers” by acting as “a launchpad” for new ventures. “We’ve been at this for almost five years,” beginning with the research and the development that went into preparing a proposal that all levels of government and the community supported, he said. The 15,000-square-foot facility, the only one of its kind in the province, has been designed to process, freeze,

refrigerate, store, package and test foods as well as provide business support and educational and meeting space. “We’ve been entertaining about a half-dozen requests on a daily basis,” from prospective clients, Borowec said, and conducting tours twice a day for individuals interested in using the facility. Most of them when they leave “are very much in awe of what they can do,” he added. Borowec said the centre has drawn attention from numerous entrepreneurs looking to “launch a product without losing their homes or investing everything they have in an idea.” Partners include post-secondary

institutions such as Loyalist College and the Business Advisory Centre of Northumberland that can give them the support they need to get their plans off the ground. The total cost of the centre “is about $2.2 million, of which 50 per cent has come from federal and provincial sources,” Borowec said in an interview. The hope is to be operational by midApril and to start production in early May. Those wishing to use the facility can register online at <www.oafvc.ca>. “The more we know the better we can schedule use of the facility,” he said. “It looks like we could be amazingly busy … We’re pleased.”

Defence minister speaks to local Tories News - Norwood - Federal Defence Minister Jason Kenney met with Peterborough federal Conservative hopeful Michael Skinner during a party function at the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre hosted by Northumberland-Peterborough South Tory candidate Adam Moulton. Moulton received strong backing from Kenney during his bid to win the newly minted riding’s Conservative federal candidacy. Moulton, 24, defeated former prime minister Brian Mulroney aide Paul Smith for the nomination and will face Kim Rudd (Liberal) and Russ Christianson (NDP) in the next

federal election. The riding was created in 2012 during the federal electoral boundaries redistribution and now includes Asphodel-Norwood and Otonabee South Monaghan. Michael Skinner is seeking the Conservative nomination in Peterborough riding. The party has been without a candidate since the resignation of Dean Del Mastro. During the Norwood meeting Kenney offered partisan support to party members extolling the virtues of the federal government.

Then, once they Trauma Centre at 705-741-5000. Staff get to the Trauma Centre, Carstairs and her team will take care of them. Carstairs explained that the shell of a turtle is really a bone. Just like a human’s bones, if the shell is set back in place it will heal in time. She said that last year, the Trauma Centre took in 400 turtles, and the majority recovered and were released back into the wild. The centre also released about 800 baby turtles, as a result of eggs that were saved. Carstairs, Hack and Scromeda said they all want to save turtles because they love the species and feel it’s the morally right thing to do. But Carstairs added that turtles also play an important role in preserving our environment. They represent one of the most significant species in the ecosystem of natural wetlands, which “act as a kidney, or a filter, to our water sources,” Carstairs said. However, those very wetlands are on the decline because of urban development, which further contributes to the decline of turtle populations, she said. “We’re part of the cause, so we want to be part of the solution,” said Scromeda. The three women offered a few tips to the public, when caring for turtles. They urge people not to put an injured turtle in water. If there are cracks in the turtle’s shell, the water could get into their lungs and make it difficult for them to breathe. They also suggest that if a person wants to remove a turtle found on the road, they should put it on the side of the road it was going to. Otherwise, the turtle will cross the road again in search of food or Continued from page B1

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Truth is, this war is going to cost us all very dearly

Dear Editor, One hundred and twenty two million loonies. $122 million. I have a hard time wrapping my mind around such a big number. I have an even harder time imagining what my world

would be like if that amount suddenly landed in my bank account. Since I never buy lottery tickets odds of it happening are zero. However, I do wonder what 122 million loonies in a pile would actually look like.

Here is some multiplication and division to help develop that mental picture. Ten loonies stacked up are two centimetres high. In 122 million there would be 12,200,000 stacks of ten loonies. Times two centimetres

gives you 24,400,000 centimetres. Divide that by 100 centimetres and you get 244,000 metres. The CN Tower in Toronto is 553 meters high. So, if you had 122 million loonies, and stacked them as high as the CN

The numbers game Dear Editor, A couple of weeks ago I pointed out that since the Liberal government came to power, the number of people on the provincial payroll being paid in excess of $100,000 per year had increased from 12,000 in 2003 to 88,000 in 2013. The figures are in for 2014 and the number has increased to over 111,000, an obscene 26 per cent increase in one year. I have read that Premier Kathleen Wynne and her finance minister are on top of this problem. I suspect the province will declare bankruptcy long before they do anything about it. And now on to the local numbers. Every year, we see the same

thing in the papers, budgets, tax increases, public employees want a pay raise; you’ve all seen it before. What I found really interesting this time was the use of buzz words and terminology, such as “bite the bullet” and “pay now or pay later.” I am also a little confused over numbers. If we only have had 1.5 per cent increases, how come my taxes went up by a substantially larger number? There was talk of a 5.46 per cent increase, which seems to have been reduced to 4.88 per cent. Councillor Fred Kuypers is calling for a maximum of 2.5 per cent and Councillor Jim Alyea says, “4.88 per cent is too high.” They are both right.

Clinic launches new Low Back Pain Project

Tower, you could build 441 loonie towers. Our Defence Minister Jason Kenney stated $122 million is the number of our tax dollars which Stephen Harper spent bombing Iraq for the last six months. Kenney’s claim was challenged by the Parliamentary Budget Officer Jean-Denis Fréchette, who put the cost of the mission between $129 million and $166 million. The Parliamentary Budget Office is extrapolating costs because the Department of Defence refuses to give them any information. However, some mathematical realists at The Ottawa Citizen made “estimates derived from publicly available information about the number of sorties and departmental operating cost estimates of the different aircraft, including full costs of personnel salaries, general maintenance and equipment depreciation and came up with a full-cost of the six-month mission of between $178 million and $266 million taxpayer dollars.” Whatever the real number is one could build at least 441 piles of loonies as high as the CN Tower … or perhaps 800. Add the new year-long commitment to war Harper just made for us and we are likely up to 2,400. When listening to the Harper Government so transparently telling us what we are paying to bomb foreigners, innocents and religious lunatics alike, remember these are the same guys who lied to us about the cost of buying those F-35 stealth fighter jets Harper wanted so badly back in 2011. Defense Minister Peter McKay told us $14.7 billion would buy them just before the 2011 election. Parliamentary Budget Officer Kevin Page told us $30 billion was the more realistic price tag. Kevin was soon out of a job. Auditor General Michael Ferguson consequently backed Kevin Page up with a $25 billion estimate. Conservatives

had to know what they were telling Canadians was a $10 billion lie. Can’t imagine that pile of loonies. So why will anyone believe Harper’s Finance Minister Joe Oliver when he hands down a balanced budget sometime in April as part of the Conservatives’ delusional propaganda for the 2015 election? Since gaining majority government power Harper has bent every environmental assessment rule and silenced every scientist while castigating anyone who stands in his way to sell all of the oil in Fort McMurray to the Chinese as fast as he can. Then the sheiks in the part of our planet Harper likes to bomb decided it was time to teach him a lesson in economic warfare. Oil is at $46 a barrel today and Conservative Alberta is fast being brought to its knees. Obviously incapable of controlling the Canadian economy and knowing that no wartime President of the United States has ever been voted out of office Harper takes us to war. Six months has just turned into another year. A year will turn into two … or ten like Afghanistan. Billions of our loonies will fall into the black hole called war. For Joe Oliver to balance Harper’s budget for his 2015 election propaganda the provinces must get less cash. Provinces then cut transfers to municipalities after recently dumping all of the old provincial highways and other former provincial responsibilities on them. Toronto infrastructure crumbles. Stirling Council just slashed another $11,000 from our Library budget. The buck stops here. Trickle down economics indeed. War impoverishes us all in many almostinvisible ways. Alan Coxwell Stirling

Ducks Unlimited hosting 30th anniversary dinner and charity auction By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - What do an ornamental fire hydrant, grizzly bear sculpture, Savage shotgun/22Cal rifle, a flying waterfowl bench and a fire pit have in common? These are just some of items among the dozens being featured at the 30th annual Wetlands Conservation Dinner and Charity Auction being hosted by the Campbellford Chapter of Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC). “The night will be filled with a silent auction, the sounds of a live auction and a mystery prize will add to the excitement,” said Jeff Weaver, who along with Wayne Buck, is a founder of the local chapter. And to celebrate the 30th anniversary, he and Cathy Stephen, chair of the event

for the second year in a row, have plenty planned for a fun evening. “We’re earmarking the 30th celebration with something special,” said Weaver. “Our dress code theme this year will be ‘camo’ [camouflage] clothing,” he said with a big grin, all decked out in his camouflage outfit that he will be sporting that night. Referencing the TV reality show Duck Dynasty, he talked about the growing popularity of “camo” clothing. “It is becoming quite trendy. “ “Camo is something different and it allows those that do hunt to dress in the camouflage clothing although we also have a lot of non-hunting people who don’t need to wear camo outfits,” he added. “To add to the night’s fun there

will be a prize for the best dressed camo outfit,” Weaver commented. A duck and goose call set which features Buck Gardner calls, one mallard and one gander, and features the Ducks Unlimited logo, will be included in the auction. In the 30 years the dinner and charity auction has been held the club has raised more than $487,000. “We’re hoping to top the $500,000 mark,” Weaver said. “And we will be having bigger door prizes this year, including a 22 calibre gun,” said Stephen. Guns have always been a big draw for the club’s event, bringing people from miles around. Also on the auction block is a 12gauge Benelli Nova and Savage Bolt All decked out in their “camo” clothing, Jeff Weaver and Cathy Stephen are busy getting the word out Action .17 HMR rifle with scope. about their biggest fundraiser of the year on Saturday, April 18.

There will also be limited edition stamped prints and Ducks Unlimited’s Artist of the Year Mike Smith’s artwork “Quiet Anticipation.” “This year we also have furniture as well as luggage, golf bags and a smoker. A lot of people are into smoking their food now, even though they may not necessarily be hunters,” Weaver noted. Jim Nelson of Brighton will again be auctioneering. “The silent and live auction, raffles and door prizes are all part of the fun.” Doors open at 6 p.m. for an “attitude adjustment” hour when the silent auction takes place. Dinner is a 7 p.m. and is being catered by Betty Wickman who has been cooking up a popular “smorgasbord of roast beef, chicken and turkey,” for the event for the past 15 years. The $40 ticket includes a membership and the publication “Ducks Ontario.” The Campbellford chapter has anywhere from 175 to 300 members any given year and new members are always welcome. “The bottom line for all of us is the environment and conservation,” said Weaver. The club uses its money to protect wetlands for future generations. The dinner and charity auction takes place Saturday, April 18, at the curling club. Tickets can be obtained from any chapter member or online at <www. ducks.ca> or by calling 706-653-2498, 705-653-1179 or 705-778-7458 or at the Weaver Family Funeral Home in Campbellford.

TRAVEL By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - Back in February, when we were facing a steady dose of bitterly cold weather and steady snowfalls, I wondered to myself if we’d ever see spring this year, but it has, indeed, arrived. The snowdrifts have finally subsided, the robins have returned, the maple syrup is running, and the annual tulip festivals are about to flourish. At this special time of year, my thoughts always drift back to my past spring visit to the Netherlands, where I journeyed through one of the most magnificent displays of tulips to be found anywhere in the world,

Tiptoeing through the tulips offer displays of such varieties as azaleas, orchids, and lilies. For example, I happened to be in the Willem-Alexander Pavilion at the time of its presentation of the world’s largest lily show, and I also visited the Juliana Pavilion where I found a fascinating history of the tulip, the Bulb Information Pavilion, the Beatrix Pavilion with its several varieties of orchids, Azalea Lane, Beech Tree Lane, Japanese Garden, Natural Garden, Inspiration Gardens, Zocher Garden with its stepping stones within a pond, Keukenhof Castle with its art exhibition, Children’s Paradise Inside the Keukenhof Gardens in the Netherlands. with its playground, maze, and City,” and it puts on a really big place between May 2 and 9, and show, with a great variety of you can expect to find lots of parades and events. This year’s Dutch dance performances and “Tulip Time Festival” takes a plethora of wooden shoes. I’d

also recommend sampling some traditional Dutch cooking while in this area, including such “delicacies” as Dutch Pea Soup, Pigs in the Blanket, Meatballs with Red Cabbage, Spice Cookies, and Dutch Apple Pie. The above tulip festivals are all worthwhile destinations, but, of course, we don’t have to journey far away at all to enjoy springtime tulips. After all, our very own “Canadian Tulip Festival” takes place in nearby Ottawa, and this year’s festivities occur between May 8 and May 18. Many of us are already familiar with the fascinating historical details that led to the “Gift of Tulips”; in the fall of 1945 Princess Juliana of the Netherlands presented Ottawa with 100,000 tulip bulbs, a gift that was given in appreciation of the safe haven members of the exiled royal family received in Ottawa during World War

II and in recognition of the role which Canadian troops played in the liberation of the Netherlands. Since that time, the tulips have proliferated in Ottawa, and they now serve as a symbol of peace, freedom, and international friendship. If you do decide to take in our major tulip festival this year, I’d recommend a drive along the designated “Tulip Route,” which connects several national institutions through Ottawa and Gatineau. And one of my favourite ways to see these tulips, in past years, has simply been to cycle along the area’s magnificent paved recreational paths. I’ve had the good fortune to ride on all these interconnected trails, and I’ve found them to be a great addition to our capital city and a great way to view those stunning tulips.

petting farm, and Mill Square a great place from which to take a photo of the surrounding tulip fields. If you want to experience a large tulip festival out of our country but closer to home, I’d recommend two U.S. destinations. Washington State’s “Skagit Valley Tulip Festival” runs through the entire month of April, and it offers over 300 acres of brightly coloured tulips in the northwest corner of the state, near the British Columbia border. It’s said that “more tulip, iris, and daffodil bulbs are produced here than in any other county in the U.S.,” and a visit here will provide you with inspirational views of these spring flowers. You can enjoy a drive by the fields for free, but I’d recommend stopping at both Roozen Gaarde and Tulip Town, the beautiful display gardens. Closer to home, I’d recommend a visit to Holland, Michigan. This rather small Dutch settlement to the west of us is often referred to as “Tulip

in the Keukenhof Gardens. After all, this destination in Lisse, near Amsterdam, is known as “The Garden of Europe,” and it has been said to be “the most beautiful spring garden in the world.” Millions of tulips are planted within this 32-hectare park every year, and I was able to enjoy the incredible floral display by simply walking along some of the destination’s 15 kilometres of footpaths. I was also able to get a better appreciation of the entire area by cycling through the region, past the nearby fields of tulips in full bloom. What an incredible sight. This year’s “Keukenhof Tulip Festival” is already in progress, for it runs from March 20 to May 17, and it features about a thousand varieties of tulips. You’ll also find spectacular displays of other spring flowers here, too, including crocuses, hyacinths, and daffodils. There are also beautiful shrubs, statues, waterfalls, lakes, fountains, artistic works, and pavilions on this property, and the pavilions

The real dirt on farming

Dan Clost Lifestyles - Gentle Reader, I had decided to write a column about our Canadian farmers and in my opinion, the unfair and unfounded negative publicity they were enduring. The latest issue is the bees. The uproar about the specific type of pesticide being used to treat seeds in some crops was the tipping point. There is no argument on anybody’s part that pesticides kill bees and other insects; that’s their purpose. However, it ain’t necessarily the “neocons” that are causing the problems. As you might imagine, the North American gardening press is all over this topic; it is absolutely astonishing the disparity between the learned opinions being put forth both on the Internet listserves and in their various publications. Similar to what you’re

g in at rs! r leb ea Ce 23 Y

reading at the moment. Please check out the Huffington Post entry of March 29, 2015, “Bee Experts Dismantle …” by Jon Entine. Do take a moment to investigate both his credentials and any motivations he might have to write this article. One last comment on bees and this is purely speculative on my part. What is the correlation, in Canada for sure and in many other parts of the world, anecdotally gathered from other garden writers’ comments, that the areas where the bees are enduring the most difficult times in both Colony Collapse Disorder (simply put: the foragers leave the hive and don’t come back) and bee death, are those that are the most heavily populated and industrialised? Currently, there are television ads, which talk about a restaurant chain using 100 per cent Canadian beef that is hormone free. The two implications are 1.) Other restaurants don’t; and 2.) Not all Canadian beef is hormone free. If you go to their website (A&W) you’ll note that this disclaimer “Our 100% Pure Beef Guarantee means that all of our beef is raised without any added hormones or steroids …) Folks, I have nothing against A&W and I think their campaign is true and effective. You can also go to McDonald’s website and read From Beef to Burger. The challenge with this type of advertising is that many Canadians (who

I think are clever, intelligent and wellmeaning folk) just don’t know enough about agriculture and farming. There can be little discernment when there is little knowledge. I think it would be great if the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) got on board with national campaigns to explain just how good and safe our food is. GR, long-time readers of this column know that I worry about the loss of connection between ourselves and this good earth which sustains us. I approach it from the perspective of gardening, which today means horticulture more than agriculture, although I try to slip in as much as I can about vegetables and farmers’ markets. The gap has reached such a distance that our Canadian farmers are resorting to their own national campaigns. This week many newspapers had an insert entitled, The Real Dirt on Farming. I hope everyone reads it and follows up on the links to the websites <www.RealDirtonFarming.ca> and <www.FarmCareFoundation.ca>. We have the safest food on the planet and the cheapest food on the planet and we owe that to our Canadian farmers. The two best things we can do are to continue to support them by purchasing Canadian foods and equally important, informing ourselves about agriculture. On a different note, Landscape Ontario is all about improving the horticultural industry in this province

Machine gun restoration project under way By Richard Turtle

News - Harold - A pair of 100year-old German guns, taken as souvenirs at the end of World War I, will be temporarily removed from the cenotaph on Highway 14 to be refurbished thanks to the efforts of the local branch of the Royal Canadian Legion and the Stirling-Rawdon Historical Society. Silenced in 1918, the guns will never fire again says society member John Lowry, but they will be cleaned up and returned to their original colours, perhaps even solving a few mysteries along the way. Lowry explains that significant research has been done on the weapons, a pair of Maschinengewehr 08 machine guns captured by 2nd Division CEF troops at the end of the war, but there are many unanswered questions as well. It is known that the weapon on the north side of the cenotaph was captured in 1918 during the Battle of Arras, Lowry says, but the story behind the gun on the south side is less certain. As well, the Arras weapon appears to have been disabled by a sniper’s shot and the restoration may lead to a conclusive answer, he adds, “if we find a .303

bullet in there.” Lowry says that the guns, capable of firing 500 rounds per minute, were watercooled using a chamber that surrounded the barrel and marksmen would deliberately aim for it hoping to quickly overheat the weapon rendering it useless. The guns in Harold are among three examples of war trophies that are still on display in Hastings County, Lowry says, and they represent an important part of both local and Canadian history. But the remaining local pieces, which also include a trench mortar in Madoc and a field artillery piece in Trenton, are only a small fraction of the enemy weapons that ultimately arrived in Canada after World War I. Research suggests nearly 15,000 weapons including rifles, machine guns, mortars and field pieces were brought to Canada by the Canadian government during and after the war and many of those were distributed and displayed in communities across the country. A significant number, Lowry says, were scrapped during World War II, including a pair of machine guns received by the village of Stirling. The fate of a similar Please see “Gun” on page B19

Gun restoration started

I will pay $15 for the kettle Make it $20 and its yours.

One of two World War I machine guns at the Harold cenotaph appears to have been hit by a sniper’s bullet. A restoration project now under way may determine the cause of a hole in the weapon’s cooling system. Continued from page B18

pair that arrived in Marmora is unknown, but they too may have been scrapped. Stirling Legion Branch President George Jones says the project came as welcome news to the organization with the membership agreeing to cover the $1,500 cost of restoring the guns. The captured weapons, which were originally collected in order to establish a

war museum, were instead offered to communities, institutions and organizations for display purposes, Lowry says. The cenotaph in Harold, which was formally dedicated in 1922, was constructed for $2,000, he adds, noting that was a considerable amount of money at the time. And the monument is unique in other ways as well. A total of 167 names are listed on the granite monument, including

those who served and returned as well as those lost in battle. In most cases, Lowry says, it is only the fallen who are commemorated. And while the cenotaph itself remains in excellent condition, Lowry says, the flanking guns are showing their age. With all the appropriate permissions now in place, he says, the guns are expected to be removed in mid-April for restoration.
