News - Quinte West - General Manager Ron Riddell welcomed everyone to the sixth annual YMCA Strong Kids Campaign launch on April 16. “It’s been six years since we began work on our first campaign,” he said. “Our chair was Paul Ferguson. Joining him were Leslie Roseblade, Cassandra Bonn, Angie McConkey, Suzanne Andrews and Marty Halloran “the Dean of Strong Kids.” Riddell said Halloran is back with them for his sixth year, sharing his time as well as with his family and fishing. “I believe fishing is why Marty is so effective in fundraising,” Riddell said with a smile. “He uses solid preparation, endless patience and wily persuasion, and usually they take the bait!” Riddell acknowledged YMCA President Bob Gallagher, board members and other dignitaries. “I always get excited for the launch of our Strong Kids campaign,” he added. “It is exciting because I have witnessed first hand what it means to parents when they are told their child can participate– in gymnastics or swim lessons or maybe summer day camp–despite the fact their family is struggling to pay for the necessities of daily living.” Riddell said the YMCA believes that learning to swim or play sports, being active and being with positive young role models is also a necessity for the development of children and youth.

Multi-tasking is a myth, don’t text and drive say police The statistics mentioned above come from a presentation put together by the Quinte Regional Traffic Coalition that Deubel delivers frequently to high school students. But Deubel’s speech at Electrolab, a well-known safety business in Belleville’s northeast industrial park, represented her first opportunity to speak to a workplace full of adults. It represents a new step in the coalition’s effort to raise awareness of the dangers of distracted driving. The Quinte Regional Traffic Coalition is

made up of representatives from Belleville Police, StirlingRawdon Police and several Quinte-area OPP detachments. Deubel opened the presentation by asking a volunteer to perform a simple exercise that involved placing several objects on a mat in spaces that fit their shape in as quick a time as possible. She then asked the volunteer to do the task again, but this time she had to text a sentence in her phone at the same time. The lesson was clear. It’s not easy to text and do any other activity at the same time. “I couldn’t do it,” said the volunteer, Michelle Mackey. “So why does everybody think they can do it in their car?” Deubel responded. She pointed out that drivers may face a fine of $280 if they’re caught by police using a handheld device while at the wheel. However, if the device causes a collision, the driver could face a fine of up to $2,000 and/or a six-month jail term. Among the messages of the presentation was that distracted driving is as serious a problem today as impaired driving. Deubel mentioned that police today are concerned with the number of people on the road who attempt to multi-task. She said even someone speaking OPP Constable Alana Deubel runs Michelle Mackey through an exercise to demonstrate how difficult on the phone it is to multi-task. The exercise was part of a Quinte Region Traffic Coalition demonstration to staff at through Bluetooth Electrolab on Friday, April 17. Photo: Stephen Petrick technology or a By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - Those who speak on a cell phone while driving are four to six times more likely to be in a car crash. And those who text while driving are 23 times more likely to be in a collision. So why then do people still risk their lives by using mobile devices while behind the wheel? “If we really must why don’t we pull over,” said Central Hastings OPP Constable Alana Deubel, during a presentation to staff at Electrolab on Friday, April 17.

Design for wastewater treatment Wyley asks: Does “hard-working” plant upgrade on schedule

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

equal surviving?

Dear Federal Member of Parliament, I am tired of getting your inane letterbrochures. (I wanted to call them stupid but my wife counselled me that that would be immature). Stop using my beleaguered postperson to deliver unpaid solicitations of my opinion. If you send me one more letter calling me a “hard-working taxpayer” I will consider coming to your house in the middle of the night and letting all of the air out of your truck’s tires! Your letter-brochure is essentially asking me to verify if you are lying about stuff that appeals to me. No! You are not! What would appeal to me is you not lying, not currying favour with people who don’t need more tax help, not sucking up to every little group of advocates you feel is likely to vote for you if you kick them a bone. Everybody on the “Canadian Sunshine List,” actually everyone whose family income exceeds $100,000, will adore your election budget. Unfortunately, bribing (rich) seniors and the well off is exactly the wrong course. It ensures there will be no money for the huge infrastructure projects this country really needs right now. It mortgages the future of our grandchildren–for politically sustaining and exceptionally selfish motives. I am ashamed to admit that I have voted for your sorry lot several times recently. Fool me once

- call me dumb. Fool me twice - call me dumber! But you will never fool me again until you get a leader without a mental disorder. There is probably a chapter in a psychology book somewhere which describes the descent into majority re-election madness. It’s worse than fiddling while Canada burns; it’s worse than lying to your own mother. It’s akin to behaving like Dr. Frankenstein as people abandon ship, while the wheels fall off the gurney and a monster clumps off into the night. Barring your leader and his unholy advisors being institutionalized before the fall election, I look forward to some or all of the following factoids, (made-up facts), being foisted on us hardworking taxpayers: • Former Senator Mike Duffy is an illegitimate son of Pierre Elliot Trudeau. • Tamils fought valiantly with the British at Queenston Heights. • Senators appointed in the last decade suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder. • War creates veterans we promise to cherish and honour. • The Book of Hockey is required reading. • Hard-working taxpayers have better sex. Yours truly, Wyley Canuck, aka Ken Leavens, Stirling

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - The engineering design for the Trenton Wastewater Treatment Plant Phase 1B upgrade is 70 per cent complete. “The project is on schedule for tender in July, 2015,” reported Matt Tracey, manager of Water and Wastewater Services, at the Public Works committee. “How much is the project worth?” asked Mayor Jim Harrison. Tracey said it is a $23million project. Tracey noted a UV system failure occurred in February as a result of an equipment failure. Repairs were made quickly and the UV system restored within one hour. On March 8, a spill of effluent water occurred at the facility caused by the water line freezing and leaking. The water migrated off the property and flooded the walking trail. City staff removed some of the snow banks for drainage and cleaned up the area. Tracey said over the winter watermain breaks occurred on Dundas Street East and John Street resulting from frozen mains. They have been isolated and residents are on temporary services.

“There were 117 reported frozen services in the city,” he said. There were still 34 frozen as of April 14. He said staff will be following up with customers when services have thawed in order to remove temporary lines and return them to normal supply. “They used a potable water hose to hook up to the neighbour’s line,” he explained. “We let the water flow continuously to keep it from freezing.” Tim Colasante reported that the Mill Street, Frankford road reconstruction project has started, worth $1.7 million. “Cogeco, Bell and Hydro are all on track,” he added. He noted the foreman and coordinator of the project have left but the job is still on track and on schedule. Another large project is Highway 2 resurfacing worth $5.5 million, across from the base. It also involves a watermain. Angelo said the tender will close in mid-May on the consolidated Public Works building, with a completion date of September, 2016. Deputy-mayor Jim Alyea asked how they can stop trucks from going down Telephone

Road. “They pound the hell out of the roads,” he said. “That bridge has a nine-ton limit, and there are three or four tractor trailers going on it.” He said whenever there is a bypass of the 401 in Brighton they come down Telephone Road. He suggested they work out something with Brighton. Chris Angelo said they could place a gate at Highway 30 and Telephone Road, but the MTO won’t fund it. They also need someone to close the gate. The trucks are already using it by the time the city gets the call. It would have to be the OPP who would be close by. The cost of a gate is $257,000. “We will talk to Brighton to pay half,” he suggested. David McCue wondered how the local people could get by the gate. Jim Turner, manager of outdoor operations, said the annual ice blasting has been carried out at Cold Creek and the sweeping program has started on the roads. “We have had no major flooding concerns to date and only about a dozen frozen culverts,” he said.

bags are also thrown all over the park, because there are no cans out. “It’s nice in the park,” she said. “I’d like to see something done.” Mayor Jim Harrison commented, “It upsets me too. Regular garbage is there too. People should be responsible. There is no need for it.” Jim Turner, manager of outdoor operations, said parks staff will be starting back on April 20. Garbage cans were pulled out in the fall because people were putting their household garbage in them. They will be back out next week. They want everything ready for the Kiwanis fishing tournament on May 2. Doug Whitney said he lives across from the park too. He saw a Cadillac pull up and dump its garbage there. “It’s got to stop,” he said. Audrey Marsh said there used to be signs in the ground telling people to pick up after their dogs. Whitney said, “You can put in all the signs you want. It won’t stop the dog shittin’ there.” Marsh added, “They should put up a sign that says: all dogs welcome to do droppin.” She said she wants to yell at people but is afraid they will see where she lives and come after her.

OPINION

Half a Titanic

Editorial - The first thing to do, if you want to cut the number of refugees from Africa and the Middle East dying while trying to cross the Mediterranean, is to drop leaflets all along the Libyan coast teaching them about ship stability. Don’t all rush to one side when you spot a ship that save you, the pamGwynne Dyer might phlets will say, because your boat will capsize and you will drown. That’s what happened last weekend off the Libyan coast, where a boat filled with at least 700 refugees overturned when the people aboard spotted a Portuguese freighter and tried to attract its attention. (One survivor says there were 950 people aboard, including those locked below decks.) At least 650 people died–half a Titanic’s worth of casualties–although the boat in question was only 20 metres (70 feet) long. Only 28 people were saved. Exactly the same thing happened with another boat crammed with refugees the previous week, and another 400 people drowned. Counting another 300+ people who drowned in another disaster in February, the death toll right now, before the peak summer season for refugee crossings, is around 1,500. That’s a full Titanic. It’s not getting quite as many headlines, though. So the second thing to do is to lock the European Union’s foreign ministers into a room and refuse to let them have caviar and champagne until they agree to do something about the silent massacre in the Mediterranean. Something quite effective was being done until late last year, but they deliberately stopped it. Until late last year the Italian navy (praise be upon it) was running an operation called Mare Nostrum that went all the way to the edge of Libya’s territorial waters to pluck refugees from the sea. The operation cost 9.5 million euros a month ($10.3 million), but it rescued 100,000 people from leaking boats or the open sea. More than half of the 170,000 refugees who landed in Italy had cause to thank the Italian navy, and only one in a hundred died. The number of refugees arriving in Italy each month is around the same this year, maybe a little higher, but ten times as many people are dying on the way. That is because the European Union’s governments, rather than sharing the cost of the Mare Nostrum project, asked Italy to shut it down and substituted their own “Triton” operation. Except that “Triton” is in no way an adequate substitute. It only gets a third of the funding Mare

Nostrum had, and it is supposed to operate only in Italy’s coastal waters, not farther out where most of the refugee boats capsize or founder. Even this year, with the Italian navy theoretically excused from duty, it has saved twice as many people as the pathetic “Triton” operation. Which, by the way, was intended to be pathetic. The argument the European governments made was that if you didn’t give the refugees the hope that they would be saved by the Italian navy, fewer of them would come. Right, so if you’re fleeing the civil war in Syria or the ghastly dictatorship in Eritrea, and you learn that the danger of dying on a Mediterranean crossing has gone up from one per cent to ten per cent, you’re going to decide to stay in war-torn Libya instead? Were the European governments lying to themselves, or just to everybody else? The latter, almost certainly. They were under pressure at home to stop the flow of migrants, they didn’t want to share the burden of saving them with the admirable Italians, but they couldn’t just say, “Let them drown.” So they came up with that preposterous argument about deterring the migrants by making the crossing more dangerous, and shut Mare Nostrum down. “In many countries in Europe at the moment,” said Laurens Jolles, the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) representative in Italy, “the (political) dialogue and the rhetoric is quite extreme and very irresponsible. It’s a fear of foreigners …, but it is being exploited for populist or political reasons, especially in election periods.” Too true. Take, for example, Katie Hopkins, columnist for The Sun, a down-market right-wing British red-top (tabloid newspaper) owned by the estimable Rupert Murdoch. Last Friday, in an article headlined “Rescue boats? I’d use gunships to stop migrants,” she wrote: “NO, I don’t care. Show me pictures of coffins, show me bodies floating in water, play violins and show me skinny people looking sad. I still don’t care.” “Make no mistake, these migrants are like cockroaches. They might look a bit ‘Bob Geldof’s Ethiopia circa 1984,’ but they are built to survive a nuclear bomb. They are survivors … It’s time to get Australian. Bring on the gunships, force migrants back to their shores and burn the boats.” Saying that sort of thing is how she earns her living, but it also expresses the true sentiments of a politically significant minority not only in Britain but in most countries throughout the European Union. When the UNHCR appealed to the EU to resettle 130,000 Syrian refugees, Germany said it would take 30,000, Sweden (with a tenth of Germany’s population) took 2,700–and the other 26 EU states took only 5,438 between them. So the drownings will continue.

What’s Harper’s problem with First Nations? Or women? By Stephen Petrick

Editorial - It’s an issue that’s sparked rallies, marches and candlelight vigils. It’s garnered incredible attention in the media and has caught the eye of human rights groups from around the world. Now, even the Royal Canadian Mounted Police seem to be making a sincere effort to address it, even though it’s a sad and complicated story that will surely raise racial tension and highlight gender inequality in our beloved but imperfect country. So why then does Prime Minister Stephen Harper seem so unenthusiastic about addressing the disproportionate number of murdered and missing Aboriginal women in Canada? According to a 2013 RCMP report, there have been more than 1,000 unresolved cases of missing or murdered Aboriginal women in Canada over the last 30 or so years. Aboriginal women make up about four per cent of Canada’s female population, but represent about 16 per of Canada’s female homicides. These are real women, who felt real pain and who have real families still reeling from their loss. And to deny this issue has something to do with racism is just silly, given Canada’s long history of tension with First Nations communities. If the mayor of Winnipeg can stand up and admit his city has to fix a race problem–as he did following the release of a controversial Macleans article in January–why can’t Harper do essentially the same? But if Harper and his fellow Conservatives care about murdered or missing Aboriginal women, they’re doing a horrible job of expressing it. There have been repeated calls from First Nations, women’s and human rights groups for Canada to launch a national public inquiry on the issue, but Harper has never seemed keen to the idea.
When questioned on the topic during his tour of the north last August, Harper said no such an inquiry is necessary, because he feels it’s not a “sociological phenomenon” but rather a collection of crimes.
 “The RCMP has said itself in its study, the vast majority of these cases are addressed, and they’re solved through police investigations. We’ll leave it in their hands,” he was quoted as saying to several media outlets.
In a Christmas-season interview with the CBC’s Peter Mansbridge he gave another less-than-glaring endorsement of the idea. “It isn’t really high on our radar, to be honest,” he said. “Our ministers will continue to dialogue those who are concerned about this. They’re studying it.”

Harper went on to say that the government’s addressing the issue by trying to pass laws that are tougher on crime; a point he reiterated when asked about the issue during Question Period in the House of Commons recently.
It’s not wrong of the Prime Minister to suggest these are criminal acts, and, personally, I see some merit in one of the arguments he made in the Mansbridge interview, which is that sometimes these types of inquiries cost millions of dollars, only to provide answers we already know. But what Harper doesn’t understand is that people concerned about this issue are really just looking for him to say, “Yes.” As Canada’s leader they want him to say, “Yes, this is a problem. Yes, I care and the government will do everything possible to stop it.” The “ah, it isn’t really high on our radar” answer is as good as a punch in the stomach to someone already in pain. If Harper has a PR team, it’s either horrible or being completely ignored.
 Unfortunately, First Nations people have never been at the top of the Conservatives’ list; that’s something that became obvious to me when I moved to this area in 2008 and was given the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory beat for the local daily paper. That year, I witnessed the federal government stop funding First Nations Technical Institute to the point it almost died. (The province came up with funding at the last moment to save the college). And I watched negotiations stall on the return of the Culbertson Tract to Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte. Although the federal government acknowledges the section of land, which now covers part of Deseronto, was taken illegally decades ago, it’s in no rush to return it.
Unfortunately, with the population numbers as they are, it’s always been difficult for First Nations groups to get the federal government to listen to them. Data from the National Household Survey in 2011, shows that just 4.3 per cent of Canadians identified themselves as Aboriginal. The most heartless Conservative strategist knows that the party can still win an election by ignoring 4.3 per cent of the population.
But for the sake of human dignity, hopefully the Conservatives will realize that the case of murdered and missing Aboriginal women isn’t just an Aboriginal issue; it’s also a women’s issue. And women make up about half of the voting population.
Then again, women haven’t always been high on Harper’s list either. Just ask Belinda Stronach or Eve Adams.

Just Teeth

Dr. Brian Ho

Our ability to eat and chew different types of food is dependent on a whole system of events that breaks down food into pieces that we can swallow. It involves much more than just our teeth. One of the most important aspects of our chewing system is our jaw joint, more specifically the temporomandibular joint. For simplicity sake, let’s refer to this joint as the TM joint. When people experience problems with their TM joint, the condition is known as temporomandibular dysfunction or TMD. Here are some of the signs and symptoms of TMD: 1. Clicking sounds from joint during opening and closing 2. Pain during opening or closing or while eating 3. Locking of jaw joint 4. Grinding or clenching habits

5. Limited opening of the mouth 6. Headaches 7. Pain in the shoulder and back To determine whether you have TMD and what types of treatment would be appropriate for you, it is important that you see your dentist for a thorough examination of your jaw joint. Your dentist can also take various radiographs (x-rays) and examine your occlusion or bite, in order to help determine the cause of your TMD. Once a diagnosis of TMD has been established, treatment can begin. Here are some treatment options for patients with TMD: 1. Oral appliance therapy (oral orthotics) 2. Bite adjustment or alteration 3. Medications 4. Surgery Because TMD can be such a debilitating condition that affects so many aspects of daily life especially eating and sleeping, it is important that you visit your dentist to determine if you have TMD and to find out what treatment options are appropriate for you.

Glenn Kozak suggested they try the Small Business Centre. “The majority of small businesses are female led,” noted Kozak. John McMahon, senior vice president from Loyalist College, said they have suspended three programs but are bringing in three new ones: international trade, entrepreneur studies and an arts and science workplace to explore several skills. An open house at the college was set for April 25. Brighton Mayor Mark Walas said Brighton is in the process of developing four subdivisions and has had inquiries about the industrial park. Linda Lisle from Quinte West reported that a training fair with 47 vendors from Belleville and Quinte West has a unique opportunity for job seekers, matching their skills with the markets on a computer program. She added that the Trent Port Marina has 119 registered boaters. Mayor Jim Harrison said the building will not be ready for the opening but they will have to use rented trailers. “It takes too long to get MOE approval,” Harrison commented. “The government sits on it. It burns me up.” Chuck O’Malley reported on Elevate, saying the food manufacturing training program has already started placing new workers with three weeks of onsite learning. “The demand exceeds the input,” he said. “These companies need people now.”

There’s one tale about how she watched her son make a last-second save on a breakaway to preserve a shutout, then looked over to see the man sitting next to her was beet red. She was so nervous during the breakaway she didn’t realize she had grabbed the man’s knee. Her takeaway from writing the book is that being involved in minor hockey is a great experience; one that can bring a family close together. “If you can help [your kids] with the experience and let their coaches deal with the game, I think it’s a worthwhile experience,” she said.

ness Centre on Sunday. Tufts said the book has plenty of lessons for other hockey parents and the most notable one is that parents have to cool their emotions sometimes and let the kids play the game. For instance, when she began writ-

ing journal entries after her son’s games, she would sometimes express frustration over the way she felt her son was being treated by coaches and fans. But she found that if she read her piece the next day, after she had calmed down, she would realize she was acting as intense as everyone else at the rink. “I would re-read what I had written and sometimes it was really offside; sometimes it was really funny,” she said. Although much of the book focuses on Brock’s career, Tufts also writes about developing a love for hockey through watching her brothers, and later her husband, play the game. But after she became a hockey mother, her perception of Canada’s most beloved sport changed. As any mother would, she became sensitive to anything negative being said about her son. “For goaltenders, people will say pretty unkind things,” she said. The book, she said, addresses some serious issues and will make hockey parents think about how they

News - Belleville - Allyson Tufts has had days at the hockey rink where she was so nervous she had to leave and wait outside in her car. The hockey rink is also a place where she’s experienced incredible excitement, joy, frustration and bewilderment over what some parents will yell out to hockey players who are just kids. She’s capturing it all in a book called Lessons Behind the Glass. The self-published book is described as a look at minor hockey through the lens of a hockey-mad mom. Tufts said she began writing the book because writing became a therapeutic exercise for her after emotional days at the rink watching her son Brock Tufts, a goalie who came up through the Belleville Bulls minor hockey system and later the Quinte Red Devils. Brock was later drafted by the Ontario Hockey League’s Belleville Bulls and last year he spent the season with the Empire B Junior C Hockey League’s Picton Pirates. Tufts said that being the mother of a goalie is an emotional ride. It’s undoubtedly the position in hockey that brings the most pressure. After one bad game–or one bad shot–a goalie can find himself on the bench quickly and be ridiculed by coaches or fans. But over the years, Tufts learned

“I want to compliment council on the FIT program,� Cassidy said. The Feed-In-Tariff (FIT) resolution supports rooftop solar projects throughout the city. Council voted to approve the resolution to encourage the construction and operation of rooftop solar generation. Projects with support from local municipalities will be awarded Priority Points which may result in applicants being offered FIT contracts prior to others applying. Cassidy also complimented the city for its recent negotiations and Collective Agreement with Quinte West unions. Firefighters recently were granted a 2.5 per cent increase each year.

“Hats off to the staff,� Cassidy said. He said it was rare to get negotiations settled so quickly without arbitration. Cassidy then started to talk about the recent debate in council about tourism. “I felt bad for Rob,� he said, referring to tourism advisory committee chair Rob MacIntosh.

Mayor Jim Harrison asked if bypasses have been reduced. Russell said the Trenton ďŹ lters are at the end of their life but will be upgraded this month. In Batawa there were no signiďŹ cant bypasses and in Frankford they are rebuilding tertiary ďŹ lters this year. Bob Lockwood asked how old the ďŹ lters are in Trenton. Matt Tracey, manager of Water and Wastewater Services, said they are 15 years old. The original ďŹ lters were overhauled in 1995 and reinstated in 2000. Since November, 2014, they have identiďŹ ed problems with the ďŹ lters and are

installing a new system which is larger and more adequate. Harrison asked about bypasses in Batawa and Frankford. Amy Russell said there were none in Batawa. Harrison said

they are moving toward that in Frankford. Russell said they will see a signiďŹ cant difference in the upgrade. Harrison asked, “Why bother?â€? Russell said MOE requires it and there is a city commitment to protect the environment. Harrison said it involves the safety of all the people in the municipality to make this “a better place to live.â€? Director Chris Angelo noted the Frankford plant is averaging 73 per cent capacity and there is a fair bit of room for growth. Chuck Naphan commented

that during peak periods there is inďŹ ltration leading to run-off and the city still needs to be diligent with ongoing repairs. They need to isolate it from the groundwater. Tracey said there have been signiďŹ cant improvements, including camera work to detect breaks in the pipes. The system is aging and needs to be continually monitored. Harrison said he was very impressed with the professionalism of the reporting, which exceeds requirements. He was glad to see there are no major issues.

The committee was not given a warning ahead of time that the delegation was appearing at council to request its full funding. MacIntosh later said he was blindsided and the committee was upset they were not given an equal chance to plead their case before full council. “I would appreciate giving the committee its due course,� Cassidy said. Harrison abruptly cut Cassidy off from making any further comments. Cassidy later said that Public Input was put on the agenda for the people to have a voice. “They’ve got to listen,� he said.

Stirling Public School hosts district chess tournament By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - More than 150 students from schools throughout Hastings and Prince Edward counties met in Stirling last week for the final district chess tournament of the school year with one of the host students proving to be at the top of his class. Stirling Public School student Shane Turner placed first among the 24 Grade 7 entries, finishing as district champion. Tournament convenor and Stirling Public School teacher Warren Miller explains that the participants, ranging from Grade 3 through 8, earned the right to compete here last week as a result of their performances in past tournaments. As well as having at least 20 chess players in each grade category representing schools from Addison Leaver, a Grade 4 student at Trenton Christian School, faces off with Sophie Profit of Albert College during last week’s chess tournament at Bancroft to Picton, the tournament Stirling Public School.

also featured an open class for Grade 6 to 8 students. The field included 11 students from Stirling Public School, including representatives at all grade levels, Miller said. Competitors filled the gymnasium, seated at several long tables lined with chessboards, as officials roamed the aisles to track progress and record results. Games were scheduled through much of the day last Wednesday, beginning at 10 a.m. with final matches wrapping up at about 2 p.m. Along with hosting the event, Stirling students also made their mark on the tournament with one of their own claiming top honours. “It’s quite an achievement,� Miller said of Turner’s finish.

Board chair says library suffering By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - Recent comments by Stirling-Rawdon Mayor Rodney Cooney have enraged Library Board Chair Denyse Mouck, who insists that the library is still being hit with cuts despite any suggestion to the contrary. Mouck, reacting to remarks that the library budget has remained unchanged from last year, says library services have suffered drastically as a result of the 2015 budget, as well as significant cuts made in 2014, and recent statements made by Mayor Rodney Cooney have also hampered fundraising efforts, she adds. What the library board presented to council, “was a bare bones budget,� Mouck says, that at about $138,000 was still lower than the budget

Community members encouraged to join in the donor campaign News - Belleville - This week, employees from Quinte Health Care (QHC) through the Trillium Gift of Life Network’s organ and tissue donor campaign, are saving more lives in Ontario and inviting community members to participate. The contribution is simple: register to be an organ and tissue donor. The registration drive at QHC kicked off on Monday and will run until April 24. Employees, physicians, volunteers as well as friends, family and community members are encouraged to visit the campaign page at <www.beadonor.ca/quintehealthcare> to register their consent to organ and tissue donation or check their registration status. Their goal is for 200 people to register their consent or conďŹ rm their registration. All that is required is the individual’s health card. Dr. Maria E. Theodorou, chair of QHC’s Organ and Tissue Donation Committee and physician who works in the Intensive Care Unit, said more than 140 people have registered or

conďŹ rmed their registration through the QHC registration page. “We are very proud of the level of participation that we are already seeing from employees, physicians and volunteers,â€? she said. “Trillium Gift of Life Network is making it easy for us to play a vital part in saving lives in Ontario and our participation in this initiative is a great way to engage everyone in a cause that’s meaningful, and requires no ďŹ nancial or time commitment.â€? The Trillium Gift of Life Network co-ordinates organ and tissue donation for transplantation across Ontario and Quinte Health Care became an ofďŹ cial partner in June 2014. Prior to the partnership, there was often a delay in the time of death and determining whether or not the individual wanted to be an organ and/or tissue donor. Christine Wilkinson, QHC Program Director said since the ofďŹ cial partnership, staff members have really become engaged and the results are phenomenal. “This last quarter, we realized a 97 per cent notiďŹ cation

rate [notiďŹ cation of deaths] to Trillium Gift of Life Network, and thus nearly all potential donors are being considered at the time of death,â€? she said. “When you have people who are waiting, sometimes for months for a donor transplant, every second counts. This partnership is making a tremendous difference in the lives of so many people and their families.â€? Dr. Theodorou points out that, “Since becoming an ofďŹ cial Trillium Gift of Life partner, we have already had one multi-organ donor whose organs [kidneys, liver and pancreatic islet cells] saved four lives, one multitissue donor [heart valves, bones, connective tissue] and 18 eye donors whose donations have changed the lives of countless recipients. We are so thankful to our donor families for working with us and Trillium to make the gift of life possible. Although we are making great strides, the demand for organs and tissues far outstrips the supply, and that’s why we encourage everyone in the Quinte Region to step

forward and register.� Organ donation in Ontario has tremendous support, but there is a lack of follow-through on intent. While 80 per cent of Ontarians say that giving consent for organ and tissue donation in advance is very important to them, only 26 per cent have actually registered. The registration drive initiative was designed to address the disconnect between intention and action. Engaging with Ontarians where they work, gives them the opportunity and inspiration to follow through on their intent. “Encouraging more Ontarians to register as organ and tissue donors is critically important because too many Ontarians die before receiving the organ transplant they need,� said Ronnie Gavsie, president and CEO of Trillium Gift of Life Network. “Beadonor. ca has made it easier for Ontarians to register their consent. Now, by bringing this awareness into the workplace, we are making it even easier for organizations like Quinte Health Care to

engage their employees to make a difference in the lives of Ontarians.â€? Quinte Health Care has 1,800 staff members and 320 medical staff who provide a wide range of high-quality health care services to a region of 160,000 residents. Care is provided through four hospitals: QHC Belleville General Hospital, QHC North Hastings Hospital, QHC Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital and QHC Trenton Memorial Hospitals. It includes inpatient services, four emergency departments, operating rooms at three sites, a rehabilitation day hospital, children’s treatment centre, ambulatory care clinics, community mental health programs and a range of diagnostic services. Trillium Gift of Life Network is a not-for-proďŹ t agency for the Government of Ontario and is responsible for planning, promoting, co-ordinating and supporting organ and tissue donation for transplantation across Ontario and improving the system so that more lives can be saved.

Council, acting as committee of the whole, came up with a 1.55 per cent increase ‌ or $47.23 based an assessment of $253,633 ‌ for a total of $3,104.35 in taxes for 2015.

Leaks force temporary closure of Brighton’s water distribution system By John Campbell

News - Brighton - A state of emergency as well as a burn ban and a boil water advisory remained in effect Monday night while efforts continued to repair a leak discovered along the main distribution line between the town of Brighton and its water treatment plant on County Road 26.

There were, in fact, two leaks that led to the three measures being adopted. The first one was detected around noon Friday, April 17, in a lateral off the main line on County Road 30 near Butler Creek. The leak was repaired by Saturday but a second one, discovered in the water main near Spring Valley Public School, proved to

be more problematic and had yet to be fixed as of Monday. The municipality said in an emergency update posted on its website at 4:30 p.m.–one of more than a dozen media releases in four days–that “specialized parts” were needed to repair the 24-inch concrete line and it warned that the municipal water supply, reopened Saturday night, could be shut off again to facilitate the

repair. Mayor Mark Walas said the Municipal Emergency Control Group was called together around 3 p.m. Friday when it became evident the first leak represented a “potential health and safety issue” for the 6,900 residents, along with businesses, schools and industries, served by the water distribution system. By 6 p.m. a state of emergency had been declared, a burn ban put into effect for the entire municipality, and a boil water advisory issued, by the Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit as a result of the water being shut off, forcing the closure of local restaurants for more than a day. “We felt it was in the best interests of the municipality [and] the people,” Walas said Sunday morning. Water was restored Saturday night after the first leak was fixed but the boil water advisory remained in effect and wasn’t going to be lifted “until we have proper authorization from the health unit to remove that order,” Walas said.

The municipality arranged for bottled water to be made available for free in limited quantities at the King Edward Park Community Centre. Portable toilets were also set up there for public use. Walas said the second leak was “very, very marginal in relation to the one that was on County Road 30,” which made it possible “to fully fill the system again to allow folks to use it.” Specialists with sonar equipment were called in from Mississauga to detect the second leak’s location. A Cobourg construction company was also hired to help municipal staff fix the leaks at both sites. Walas said the two happening together was “purely coincidental.” The loss of water marked the first time the Municipal Emergency Control Group had been called into action for a real event since he became mayor more than four years ago. “There’s always lessons learned but I think all in all we’ve done really a great job,” he said of the control group and its part-

ners, including the many volunteers who helped out. “They did pretty well for their first kick at the can,” said one resident, Patrick Downes, who picked up some bottled water at the community centre Sunday. “I’m glad to see they actually have an action plan in place … They jumped into action pretty quick.” Walas acknowledged the “inconvenience” residents were experiencing and that “it’s been tough on” local businesses, especially restaurants. But “from what I hear everyone has been very understanding, given the circumstance,” he said. The mayor said environmental services staff became aware of the first leak after noticing “spikes” in water usage at treatment facility. “They knew something was wrong,” he said, and went out to drive the gravity-fed water main from the plant to see where the problem was. “They could see the water blowing in every direction” from a lateral off the main on County Road 30.

Kenron residents want more lighting around Park access News - Quinte West - A delegation from Kenron Estates has asked council to consider putting more lighting at the entrance off Highway 2. “Traffic flows have increased significantly,� said spokesman Rick May at the Public Works committee meeting. He added that with the ongoing expansion of CFB Trenton and the use of the road as an Emergency Detour Route for Highway 401, there have also been several major accidents at this location resulting in numerous fatalities. “The residents of Kenron Estates would like this committee to once again consider the installation of traffic lights at this location,� May said. “We would also like to know if the city plans on installing additional street lighting or improving existing lighting along Highway 2 as the road itself is poorly lit.� Chris Angelo, director of Public Works, said there was an update on the traffic study in 2005 following ministry guidelines, which said traffic signals were not warranted. They looked at Aikens Road, Kenron, Montrose and Whites Road. However, it has not been updated since then. “The traffic is very heavy,� he acknowledged. “It is difficult to get out to travel eastbound from Kenron. You have to cross two or three lanes.� Angelo said they will revisit the traffic study for an update.

“We should get summer and fall counts as well as spring,� he said. Bob Lockwood added that at night the lights don’t work because they are not near the intersection at Ghent Drive or Kenron. He suggested putting in LED lighting which has great illumination, and have it facing out to the highway to light up both areas. He said the new lighting on Telephone Road near Walmart has worked out great. “It’s a real benefit,� he said.

Angelo said they will use their reserve and put some money aside for street lighting on Highway 2. The current LED contractor has been given authorization to install lighting at Kenron and throughout Sidney Ward. Lockwood said they need to take a good look at where the lights are now. “They need to be closer to the intersection,� he said. Angelo agreed, “It needs a longer arm or new pole.�

Doug Whitney said traffic lights on Highway 2 would slow down traffic too much and were not necessary. He questioned whether this was the responsibility of the ministry or the municipality. Angelo said it is all the city’s responsibility now.

David McCue said there have been a lot of accidents near Kenron Estates. “It’s hard to get out of the left lane,� he said. Mayor Jim Harrison said they will get a traffic study done, new signage and more lighting at that location.

Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club on the water

News - Quinte West - Spring has sprung, the river is flowing and this group of indoor rowers are eager to get on the water. For the second year in a row, the Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club (TRPC) and the YMCA have partnered to provide dry-land training for rowers. The training sessions have been successfully running at the Quinte West YMCA since January and this enthusiastic group is now ready to put their hard work to the test on the water. “We have another keen and dedicated group again this year,” says Kit McCandie, YMCA Instructor and avid rower with TRPC. “Rowing is one of the best allround fitness workouts you can find. It is a low-impact exercise that burns calories, provides car-

diovascular benefits and helps to improve strength and endurance. And doing it with the TRPC is a lot of fun.” Jeff Lay, TRPC Head Coach and Olympic Silver Medallist, is also looking forward to getting the rowers on the water this season. “Whether you are a returning member or new to the sport of rowing, young or old, our team of coaches invites you to get on the water with us.” He extends the invitation to the public to join them at the TRPC spring open house scheduled for Sunday, May 31, at the TRPC Boathouse, Kiwanis Park, Trenton. Registration for the Learn to Row lessons and TRPC memberships are now under way at the Quinte West Chamber of Commerce during regular business

hours. The fee for the Learn to Row program is $120 for five group lessons, once per week, and $100 of that is credited toward your rowing membership if you decide to continue. Rowing memberships are Youth/Student Recreational (13 years+) - $250, Adult Recreational (18 years+) - $350, Masters Competitive $525. Paddling memberships are also available at the following rates: single $125, couple $200, family $300. For more information, call the Quinte West Chamber of Commerce at 613-392-7635 or email <info@trentonrowingandpaddling.ca>. The TRPC invites you to like their Facebook page at Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club for regular updates, event postings and photos.

With perfect conditions on the Trent River, Harold Tripp, Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club paddling director, couldn’t wait for the TRPC docks to go in before getting onto one of the club’s stand up paddleboards. He invites everyone to give it a try at TRPC’s spring open house on Sunday, May 31, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Kiwanis Park, Trenton. Photo: Robin Pilon

Festival of Sacred Praise under way for 65th year By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - Dozens of area vocalists and musicians are currently in the spotlight as competition continues in the 65th Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise. The annual celebration of music and faith began Sunday afternoon at St. Paul’s United Church and continues until April 28, with additional performances at the Stirling Festival Theatre. “We’re off to a really good start,” Committee President Donna Russett said following youth vocal classes held Sunday afternoon. Participants in the opening classes, some younger than six, left adjudicator Bethany Horst with plenty of positive comments as well as valuable advice on how to improve their performances and further enjoy their talents. The day’s evening session, featuring choirs from Madoc and Stirling as well as participants from as far away as Harrowsmith, was followed by further vocal competition on Monday. String classes resume today (Thursday) with numerous solo and group performances scheduled from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. Friday band classes will be held at the Stirling Festival Theatre from 9 a.m. until noon. Competition resumes again Sunday afternoon at St. Paul’s, running through Monday and wrapping up Tuesday, April 28. Performers in all classes are provided with professional adjudications and, based on the quality of the performance, may be eligible to compete at the provincial level upon recommendation. The festival, held under the auspices of the Official Board of St. Paul’s United Church and the Stirling Festival Committee, has a long history of encouraging youth as well as adults to express their faith through music and the spoken word. Andrew Powell of Belleville, accompanied by Michael Faulkner on piano, bows following his performance in the Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise last weekend.

Events - Belleville - The first weekend in May is fast approaching so mark your calendar. On Saturday, May 2, and Sunday, May 3, hundreds of cities all over the world will be celebrating Jane’s Walk 2015. Once again, Belleville will be part of this worldwide initiative. Now in its third year, Jane’s Walk Belleville will make it possible for people of all ages to explore the city’s rich history, to appreciate everything that makes this city great and to look for ways to make it better for everyone. You don’t have to sign up–just show up. It’s fun and it’s free. There are two exciting new walks: the first tours innovative urban gardens and the second gets you inside five magnificent churches. Also, for the first time ever, there’s a bike tour, which will be headed up by Belleville On Bikes (BoB). Both walks are wheelchair accessible and Mary Tiessen, an ASL interpreter, will be on hand for all three tours. Each tour lasts approximately one and a-half to two hours. Jane’s Walk is named after urban activist Jane Jacobs (1916–2006). This Canadian-American journalist was known for organizing grassroots efforts to protect existing neighbourhoods. Her 1961 book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities, changed the way people look at their communities and how to make them stronger and healthier. This year, Jane’s Walk Belleville coincides with the unveiling of Belleville’s Transportation Master Plan. Among other things, the plan calls for a system of cycling paths for Belleville that will be constructed in

three phases over the next 20 years at a cost of approximately $48 million. In addition, Jane’s Walk 2015 once again underscores the importance of re-populating our city centre. It also provides a way to understand how we can maintain a vital community that offers walking, cycling and public transportation for everyone ages eight to eighty. Here are some specific details about the walks being offered as part of the event: “Jane Rides on the Wild Side,� Saturday, May 2, at 10 a.m. Meeting Place: Myer’s Pier on south Front Street Rob Jakes, Justin Jones and Tanya Hill of Belleville on Bikes will lead cyclists on an exploration of safe routes around the city and paths including the Bayshore Trail. The tour will begin with a refresher on bike safety and etiquette, and for those who have yet to give their bike a spring tune-up, a bike mechanic will be on hand. Leaders will discuss the positive impact that better access to safe cycling routes would have on our neighbourhoods and what we can do to improve the cycling experience throughout Belleville. “Jane Sows Some Seeds,� Sunday, May 3, at 10 a.m. Meeting Place: Corby Rose Garden on William Street. Local SPIN (Small Plot Intensive) farmers such as Max Valyear of Green Wheel Farms and Stephanie Bell will be introducing the concept of urban farming and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) with a tour. SPIN farmers carry out high-density farming in unused urban spaces to provide food Please see “Church� on page B3

The index ranks countries on their “commitment to protect animals in their legislation, improve animal welfare and recognize animal sentience.” “To create a truly sustainable world, we must take care of animals, people and the planet,” the international organization says. “Positive, lasting change for animals can only be achieved if animal welfare is at the heart of the policies, legislation and behaviours of the people responsible for the lives of animals.” Comments on the petition are supportive and pointed. “We need better animal

cruelty laws. Abuse is epidemic,” wrote Colleen Woods of Dundas. “Abusers are criminals. They are threatening and taking lives. It needs a courageous judge to set precedent for the future protection of animals.” “To people that don’t have pets and don’t understand the bond that develops, they are not pets they are family members,” added Daniela Schulze of Mississauga. “For the non-human that committed this crime the stiffest of penalties is not stiff enough.” “I am sick to death of hearing about people getting away with atrocious crimes against defenseless animals,” said Shelley Murray of New Lowell. “Our justice system does not deal with these criminals severely enough. Time to make an example of the one that committed this crime.” “People who commit acts of abuse and terror upon animals will commit acts of abuse and terror on fellow human beings,” said Jenn Steeves of Hamilton. The petition is addressed to Peterborough MPP Jeff Leal, the Ontario Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and federal Justice Minister Peter MacKay.

News - Douro - Several thousand people have signed a petition demanding changes to Canada’s animal cruelty laws as a small legacy for Jake, a three-yearold chocolate brown Labrador retriever who was shamelessly and brutally shot execution-style two weekends ago. The online “Justice for Jake” petition at <www.change.org> follows in the wake of a short online effort by the Waldon family to find their dog after he went missing April 12 while they were doing some yard work on their property north of Norwood in Douro-Dummer Township. That night friends found Jake’s lifeless body in a ditch on the 11th Road of Douro-Dummer and near a gravel pit several kilometres from the Waldons’ home; Jake’s distinctive red collar had been removed and he’d been shot from close range in the back of the head. Police are continuing their investigation into a senseless killing that has cruelly affected the Waldon family and their young daughters who considered Jake as close to them as another sibling. Police urge anyone with information that could help them to call Crime Stoppers. The petition was started by Nicole Burley of Port Hope and calls for a reform of Canada’s antique animal cruelty laws; as of Monday, April 20, it had collected over 2,300 online signatures. According to the petition, Canada

News - Orillia - Citizens now have another way to report a minor crime. The OPP’s “Citizen Self Reporting” (CSR) is an easy to use Internet reporting tool that can be accessed from a computer or mobile device and sent directly to the OPP anywhere, anytime. The public is being reminded about the OPP’s online reporting system as an alternative to having an officer attend a scene for a minor incident. In a press release the OPP stated that “Citizen Self Reporting” has rolled out across the province and the OPP is proud to offer this simple and efficient new system as a means of reporting certain minor

incidents and crimes. In an effort to enhance our service delivery, this online reporting system will allow the public to report specific crimes such as lost property, stolen licence plates, theft from vehicles, driving complaints, and property damage without an officer having to be dispatched to the scene, provided there are no suspects, injuries or the incident is not an emergency. The use of this new system is completely optional. Police will still attend a call for service if desired. To learn more, and to access “Citizen Self Reporting” online, go to <opp.ca> or call the OPP toll-free number 1-888-3101122.

Wheelchair of Hope Foundation to hold inaugural gala By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - A delegation to council from Wheelchair of Hope Foundation was made by CEO and founder John Cairns and board member Mike Wilcox on April 20. “We are a new non-profit organization to raise awareness of physical challenges,” Cairns told council. The foundation delivers mobility devices at no cost to those who need it. This includes manual wheelchairs, power chairs, scooters and four-wheel walkers. “We transform lives by providing the dignity of mobility, hope and opportunity through freedom of independence,” he said. The organization collects donations

of gently used mobility devices and fixes them up to industry standards. “It helps sustain quality of life,” he added. An inaugural gala launch on Saturday, April 25, will be held at Occasions by the Bay. This will include a fashion show incorporating kids with various diversities paired with able-bodied models. The event also includes a dinner. Duncan Armstrong asked where people could contact the foundation. Cairns directed inquiries to their website at <www.wheelchairofhope.ca> and there is also a phone number at 613-9205347. There is a link on Facebook and information at the Quinte West Chamber of Commerce.

Karen Sharpe said a lot of people don’t need their equipment any more and could repurpose it. Doug Whitney congratulated the group, noting that he is one of the people needing assistance. He added that many people can’t afford a wheelchair and encouraged them to get this help. “Don’t give up,” he said. “Keep on going.” Cairns said mobility is not just getting from A to B but provides a quality of life, a sense of self and dignity and independence. It also relieves pressure on social assistance. Dave McCue asked where they store the equipment. Cairns said right now, that’s a problem and half of his garage is full. McCue said he could help them Mike Wilcox (l) and John Cairns introduced the Wheelchair of Hope Foundation to Quinte West council. with storage space. Photo: Kate Everson

Opening night gala at new Warkworth gallery goes Hollywood

Judy Kaufman, president of the Arts and Heritage Centre of Warkworth, and Clive Russell, creative director and co-founder of the group of dedicated volunteers that have worked hard for the past year to open the gallery, are spreading the word about their gala opening which is happening Saturday, May 16, at 6:30 p.m. Photo: Sue Dickens By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - Rolling out the red carpet for the gala opening of the new Arts and Heritage (Ah!) Centre will mark the culmination of a year of hard work by a group of dedicated volunteers whose vision is now a reality. “The gala will be a Hollywood-style red carpet event,” said Clive Russell, creative director and cofounder of the group. Ah! is located in Warkworth’s historic Memorial Community Hall leased to this non-profit group by the Municipality of Trent Hills. Led by local developer David Pollack, costume designer Delphine White,

textile artist Sheree Rasmussen and Russell they proposed that the building, which was going to be designated by the municipality as a storage facility after the historical society closed down, become a centre for art and history. Trent Hills’ council unanimously voted to allocate funds for renovations to make the hall more suitable as a gallery including a restored hardwood floor, track lighting and refinished walls. Over time a board of directors was assembled that includes local business and community leaders as well as artists. With charitable status pending they are moving forward with their program of

exhibitions and events for the inaugural season which begins with the gala. The Independent met recently with Russell and Judy Kaufman, president of the group, to talk about the evening and some of the shows. “We’re invited the community as well as dignitaries including the mayor [Hector Macmillan] and his wife [Sandy] to the gala,” noted Kaufman. “We will have two people interviewing with lights etc. for the red carpet night. They will interview a cross-section from the community including artists,” said Russell. Music, dance and a few surprises will be part of the gala celebration which “will open with a bang!” according to Russell. “The Campbellford high school jazz band will be playing and as well there will be a performance by Olivia Rapos and San Murata, on opening night,” he added. Rapos is a young jazz singer from Warkworth described as “a star in the making.” Murata is an artist from Grafton who is also an accomplished musician. The gallery season will officially begin the night of the gala as Ah! kicks off its first show with indigenous art and 1,000year history of art in this area from the early Iroquois village near Richardson Road to J.D. Kelly, The Conqueror Worm, local artist Paul Portelli and a popular event begun last year called Sunday Drive which features art installations. “We will promote excellence in the arts and in heritage awareness through a variety of shows and events that look at history through the eyes of artists and art through the eyes of the present,” Russell explained. Summer shows will focus on the work of three artists, Murata (mentioned previously), Lisa Johnson (teacher and artist), and Simon Schneiderman, a playwright, author, lawyer and artist. In early June the gallery will be part of Doors Open.

Concerts, community events and talks are planned in conjunction with the gallery shows. Delphine White will be putting on a show about film arts, hopefully in October as the season winds down.

Exhibitions include the art of farming, the art of youth, to name a few. The gallery will be open weekends from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The gala takes place Saturday, May 16, at 6:30 p.m. “We want it to be a celebration

and fun. That’s my mission,” said Kaufman. More information is available on the website at <www.ahcentre. ca> or email <info@ahcentre.ca> or check them out on Facebook at <https://www.facebook.com/ artsandheritagewarkworth>.

TRAVEL

Berlin’s intriguing, informative City Circle Tour

By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - When I first arrived in Germany’s largest city, I was rather overwhelmed, but I felt much better about getting around after I took a hop-on and hop-off bus tour of Berlin. This proved to be the best way for me to get oriented and, at the same time, to see many of the city’s major points of interest. The City Circle Tour, <www.berlincitytours.com>, is about a two-and-a-half-hour trip, if you simply stay on the double-decker bus and listen to the information you’ll be given via the headphone that’s provided to you (in 13 languages). However, I’d recommend taking an entire day for this trip, or even two, for you’ll have the opportunity to hop off at various points of interest and then hop back on another bus and then continue to the next destination. In this way, you’ll get the information on the bus

as you approach a point of interest, then hop off the bus and visit the actual place before hopping back on a bus and going to the next place of interest; a bus departs every ten minutes between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. If some landmark is not important to you, then you can simply decide to stay seated on the bus and continue to the next destination. Since I was staying near Berlin’s Hauptbahnhof (main train station), I decided to begin and end my circle tour at this particular point. I simply boarded the bus here in the morning, and I returned here in the late afternoon. I disembarked at most of the 18 designated stops, for I found this to be a great opportunity for photo ops and further exploration. My first major stop was at Charlottenburg Palace (1695), the only surviving major royal palace in the city. This baroque-

Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate. A view of Berlin’s Charlottenburg Palace.

styled palace, with its meticulously landscaped gardens, was built as a summer residence for Sophie Charlotte, the first Queen of Prussia, and tours are available. The City Circle Tour itself will cost 20 Euros, or 24 Euros for two days, and you can simply combine this with a tour of this palace for another 9 Euros. I next travelled along popular Kurfuerstendamm Boulevard and stopped in to visit at KaDeWe (Kaufhaus des Westins), a legendary shoppers’ paradise where the entire sixth floor is dedicated to gourmet foods. While in this area, I noticed a bombed out church that has been left as a reminder of the horrors of war (the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church), and next to it is a modern, taller, beautiful church. The Cultural Forum (Kulturforum) is a main centre for arts and culture, and this was the next area of interest. Here I found several museums, including the New National Gallery, the Museum of Decorative Arts, the Staatsbibliothek Library, and the Philharmonic Hall. I also discovered a memorial near the Philharmonic Hall, which was dedicated to the many mentally ill and physically disabled who were killed by the Nazis (not contributing well led to death back then). Some were gassed near this spot (a mass murder). I then went to Potsdamer Platz, with its many new highrises and mammoth buildings including the huge Sony complex; this area used to be a

desolate, no-man’s land split by the Berlin Wall, but when the Wall came down, this area became a vibrant centre quickly, rising phoenixlike out of the ashes of the old border wasteland. I later visited Checkpoint Charlie, a border crossing between East and West Germany during the Berlin Wall era, and other reminders of this troubling time (1961-1989), including the Checkpoint Charlie Museum, Berlin Wall Museum, and East Side Gallery, a section of the Berlin Wall that has been painted by artists and turned into the largest open air gallery in the world.

I also hopped off the bus at Gendarmenmarkt, a neoclassical square with a beautiful Concert Hall and two large cathedrals (French and German). Both churches were built in the 18th century, and their domes were added later. My next exploration took place at Alexanderplatz, where I viewed the World Time Clock, the old Rathaus (Town Hall), the oldest church in Berlin (Nikolai Church) and the TV Tower (the city’s tallest structure). Not far from there, I stopped to view “Berlin Dom,” the largest Protestant Church in Germany, and to walk

on Friedrichstrasse with its many upscale shops, including the French store, Lafayette. The City Circle Tour also offers two combination tours in this area; you can add a tour of the popular DDR Museum, one of the most interactive museums in the world (to learn what everyday life was like in the GDR), or you can combine the bus tour with a one-hour boat cruise on Berlin’s Spree River. I hopped off at Berlin’s Jewish Museum and, later, the Holocaust Memorial, a field of 2,711 concrete blocks, resembling tomb-

stones, designed by New York architect Peter Eisenmann. This “Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe” is located very near Brandenburg Gate, which has become a symbol of Germany’s reunification, and the Reichstag Parliament building, seat of the German Bundestag since 1999. I certainly checked out these landmarks, too. I finally returned by bus to Berlin’s Hauptbahnhof, completing my circle tour, and ending an intriguing, informative exploration of this fascinating city. For more information <www.visitberlin.de>.

Lifestyles - Most of us are familiar with moss and lichen although we occasionally have difficulty distinguishing one from the other. For example, Reindeer Moss is actually lichen. In our area, casual observers will have seen the grey/green frilly lichen coating the bark of trees. We just call it lichen and are satisfied with our botanical expertise. Just wait until you hear some of the common names for these wee things: Freckled Pelt, Frog Pelt, Ragged Bear, Wax Paper, Rock Frog, Lungwort, and Rag Bag. Who says the plant boffins don’t have a sense of humour? Mind you, when you’re dealing with two organisms (fungi and algae) all mixed up together, it can leave you looking for comic relief. They have a symbiotic relationship and one cannot live without the other but how do you “name” them. You and I, Gentle Reader, are comfortable with genus and species when it comes to identifying our garden plants. We can certainly get

out our old botany books and follow through domains, kingdoms, phyla, class, order and family until we get to genus but most of us don’t really bother with that anymore. Perhaps we should because things are changing quickly. By the way, for you slackers who graduated pre 1990 and have not updated your classification knowledge, you’re behind the times. I will wager that you have never heard of the term “Archaea” let alone know how to spell it. (Yep, neither did I.) Lichens are named after the fungal portion of the colony with the algae part being identified only as a completion of the exercise rather than being especially important. There is a ferocious battle waging among the naming boffins and it is best that you and I keep clear of the fracas until the situation is resolved. On their own, lichens are incredibly fascinating in just about every aspect: symbiosis, cultural range, (Did you know that some of them can actually live inside solid rock?), appearance,

A closing note: Lisa PurvesSmith is a colleague and good friend. Over the years I have had the pleasure of selecting plants for her landscaping business and, more recently, working together at the same landscape nursery. She has been very active promoting horticulture as a career for young people and has spent a good deal of time as a mentor to them. Lisa is a founding member of the Upper Canada Chapter of Landscape Ontario and served on the Ontario College of Trades as horticulture transitioned through to a Red Seal trade. In recognition of this, Lisa was recently honoured by having a Landscape Ontario academic scholarship named after her. Well done, friend! Another closing note: Serena Stiff, another colleague and good friend has started a new business, Hubbs Farms, which will be growing garden produce for the Wellington Farmers’ Market.

and as a food. Did you know that northern latitude peoples were accustomed to removing the reindeer lichen from the rumen (stomach) of killed reindeer and then eaten? Just before this gets you excited enough to gnosh on the stuff be aware that some of them are poisonous. If you this gets you interested enough to learn more, good; but, fair warning, lichen boffins really, really like to use the biggest, most difficult-to-spell words that I have ever seen. The reason for this short essay is because of the unfair rap lichens receive in terms of killing trees. They do not kill trees. Lichens seem to prefer inert objects upon which to rest themselves, such as rocks. Between their two organisms they exist primarily on thin air and take nothing from their anchor point even if it is a plant. So, toss out the notion that lichens kill plants but introduce you to the plausibility of them being symptomatic of a plant in decline. I could not find substantiation for this but I am of the opinion that a healthy, fast growing tree has an active exterior bark, which is constantly changing, which is why you see lichens on a dying tree or a very old tree with a declining metabolism. If you see lichens colonizing your woody plants, there are a few things you can do and increasing air circulation through pruning is one of them. Another is to examine the plant closely and see if you can diagnose

Garbage Bag Ball recycles wardrobe

News - Belleville - On Saturday, April 25, the Dumpster Diva Collective presents the third annual Garbage Bag Ball - Thinking Beyond the Dumpster: Celebrating Local Creativity and Using the 3R’s in your wardrobe! The Dumpster Divas promote the art of dressing in an eco-conscious way rather than following fashion trends. This includes buying previously enjoyed and locally made clothing and accessories that help express each person’s uniqueness. “The Garbage Bag Ball is held Saturday night on the same day that many local communities hold their annual Trash Bash, honouring Earth Day,” says Diva Chantal Fraser, founder and president of Empowered Path Inc. “It’s a great way to celebrate the commitment to living in an environmentally conscious way.” This year, local artisans and businesses are participating in a Stationary Fashion show. Mannequins and dress forms displaying ensembles put together from consignment store and thrift shop finds, repurposed clothing and accessories will grace the lobby and entranceway of the Belleville Club. Each ensemble will include a list of where the pieces were sourced and how much they cost to purchase. “The Stationary Fashion show offers inspiration for those looking to use the three R’s–Reduce, Re-use and Recycle– in their wardrobe,” says eco-fashion designer Ingrid Tiffe, one of the founding members of the Diva Dumpster Collective. The Ball takes place at the Belleville Club at 210 Pinnacle Street, Belleville, starting at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 25, 2015. Enjoy live music from Toni Vani and friends starting at 8:30 p.m. Admission is $10 in advance. Tickets may be purchased at The Boretski Gallery, 300 Front Street, Belleville, at Green Gables Gifts & Greetings, 286 Main Street, Bloomfield, or from any of the Dumpster Divas. Admission at the door is $12 or $10 plus a donation to the Gleaners food bank. For more information visit the <dumpsterdivacollective. com> website.

cade locally. When Alberta passed away in 2009 the family decided a memorial jamboree would be a fitting remembrance, with funds donated to community projects. The jamboree takes place twice a year at the Marble Arts Centre in Actinolite and is sponsored by the Tweed and Area Arts Council. Funds raised from the $8 admittance charge are donated to the Marble Arts Centre in the fall, while proceeds from the spring show on May 1 are donated to the Gateway Community Health Centre Youth Jazz Ensemble. Some song titles from Smile For Me, a 2010 live CD recording of the Alberta Young Jamboree, reflect the authentic traditional side of their music: tunes like Tennessee Mountain Home and The Little Shirt My Mother Made for Me are mixed with newer country numbers such as Where Corn Don’t

Grow and some spiritual/gospel songs. The material has deep roots in the Young family history. “Alberta loved traditional country music and basically mom and dad taught us all how to play and sing. There’s five kids and we all play. We played music around the house forever and ever, and then we started the Tweed Jams at the Legion,” says Jeff Young. Jeff, brother Brad, Alberta and dad Gary, along with Ralph Dafoe and Cathy Whalen formed the Legion “house band.” The Tweed Legion jamborees raised about $15,000 Jeff reports. Proceeds have gone to “minor hockey, soccer, whatever we felt was right.” (The fundraising jamborees are now run by the Tweed Lions Club.) Gary notes that a higher total amount has been raised by the family over the years, playing in nursing homes, churches and com-

munity events. A major recent beneficiary has been the Gateway CHC Youth Jazz Ensemble. At the memorial ceremony held for Alberta at the Land O’ Lakes Curling Club in lieu of a funeral about $5,000 was raised. “Jeff wanted to donate the money to the Gateway Community Health Centre so we had a meeting with Lyn Linton [Gateway CHC Executive Director] and she came up with this idea of starting a jazz ensemble … she asked me if she could allocate that $5,000 to get it started and it just took off from there.” The Gateway CHC Youth Jazz Ensemble will be performing at the upcoming Jamboree, joined by Cathy Whalen, Mary Cassidy, Ken McDonald, Dave Crockett and The Harmony Road Girls, with the Young Family Band, Jeff and Brad, hosting the evening.

Gary Young (l) and son Jeff display a banner for this spring’s Alberta Young Memorial Jamboree. Held twice a year, the jamborees commemorate the memory of Alberta Young and raise funds for the Marble Arts Centre and the Gateway CHC Youth Jazz Ensemble.

MACKfest Whitewater Kayakers bring colour, excitement and a “symbiotic” relationship to Centre Hastings By Margriet Kitchen

News - Marmora - April and the swirling rapids and gentle runs of Beaver Creek and other waterways around Marmora not only welcome returning Canada geese, but also the eager participants of MACKfest, (Marmora Area Canoe and Kayak Festival) who come to the area every year to enjoy the great action on the river. Such locale names as Double Drop, Diamond, Bridge Drop and Ugly inspire a vision of hardy souls careening through their whitewater challenges. Described by the organizers as “a mix of Class 3 canyon runs, some more difficult drops with flat water and easier rapids separating them,” the Beaver Creek run is a spring time classic. Paddlers put into the water in the morning, at a spot off Shannick Road north of Marmora, and continue their three- to four-hour course down to the Beaver Creek Road bridge with some going on to Fidlar’s Glen. It is an eightkilometre distance, with difficulty being intermediate to advanced. A freestyle or “play spot event” was held at Crowe Bridge, just south of Healey Falls, with a large crowd enjoying the sight of the colourful kayaks swirling about and navigating through various eddies and currents. Other runs were held at the Skootamatta, and Black River, with Queensbor-

and Black rivers. Many thanks to the ladies at Queensborough who were wonderful with pies and coffee and cold drinks waiting for the paddlers as they put out at the dam in the town. We really appreciate the interest shown by the people of the area as we enjoy one of the first whitewater runs in southern Ontario, in Marmora and area. We can’t do this without Bunker’s at Mar-

mora, they let us camp here, it is a symbiotic relationship.” The sponsors are so generous with prizes for the silent auction and raffle draws. The whitewater paddlers are like a family, we will be gathering shortly for our buffet, and prizes, then a lovely evening campfire here at Bunker’s.” Stephanie Julia of the Iron Grille restaurant said, “This is

Bunker’s third year in hosting the home base for the event, with the new management of the Iron Grille Restaurant on site catering the buffet banquet. We look forward to this every year, fabulous people, the whitewater paddlers!” For more information on MACKfest and whitewater kayaking, refer to <http://mackfest.ca/>.

Home show launch proves huge success

Joshua Maracle of Glengarry Landscape Innovations says the township’s newly launched home show provided plenty of opportunities for exhibitors and visitors alike. By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - An overwhelming response to the newly launched Stirling-Rawdon Home Renovation and Lifestyle Show last weekend has almost certainly cemented its future in the township. Organizers, exhibitors and visitors were extremely impressed with the final result, though many admit to having some reservations at the outset. The event was hosted at the Stirling arena, attracting more than 700 paying visitors from the immediate area as well as from surrounding communities. But with the new and extensive show running for a single day, there would be little time to leave a lasting impression. Glengarry Landscape Innovations Project Manager Joshua Maracle was among the many exhibitors who weren’t sure what to expect when the doors opened. “We do some big, big home shows,” he says, noting with any first-time event there is always an element of risk. “But this has been great. We’ll definitely be back next year.” Maracle’s sentiments were

echoed by dozens of the more than 60 exhibitors, whose products and services are readily available in the community. Even the event organizers admitted the response went beyond their own expectations. “There was a steady stream [of visitors] from the time we opened the door,” says arena manager and show organizer Richard Dean, who worked together with municipal staff and Economic Development Officer Cassandra Boniface to pull off the day-long show that featured area businesses offering everything from financial and insurance services to cabinets and countertops. There were contractors and construction suppliers, florists, health and wellness service providers, car dealers and interior designers, all sharing their knowledge and expertise with show visitors from throughout the area. With a paid attendance of more than 720, township Treasurer Roxanne Hearns noted after final figures were calculated, “everybody’s happy.” “We couldn’t have asked for

B14 Section B - Thursday, April 23, 2015

more,” said Boniface as the afternoon progressed. Pre-show registrations, requests for sponsorship information and general inquiries were promising from the start, she adds, but organizers knew that was no guarantee of success. All smiles as the crowds filed past late in the day, Boniface noted, “everything we’ve heard has been positive. People are really happy. I can’t say for sure, because it’s a council decision, but it looks good for next year.” Dean agreed, noting all members of council had attended the event along with numerous other familiar and unfamiliar faces. “These things usually need two or three years [to get established] but then you look at this,” he says. Dean and Boniface were also behind the launch of the township’s annual Active Community Expo (A.C.E.) that features vendors and exhibitors from local service clubs, sports associations and other special interest groups. And the one-day format, Boniface says, seemed to suit visitors and exhibitors alike. “It’s been a very good day,” she says.

Three-year-old Jessie McCuaig found plenty of distractions at the Stirling-Rawdon Home Renovation and Lifestyle Show last Saturday allowing his father, Matthew, to speak with exhibitor Adam Cooney of sticksandstones Landscaping.

Indoor and outdoor decorating, as well as various other services and products of interest to area residents, were on full display during the Stirling-Rawdon Home Renovation and Lifestyle Show last weekend, attracting more than 700 visitors.

Kath MacLean captivates with poetry, history and a Purdy connection

By Brett Mann

Lifestyles - Tweed - Kath MacLean’s performance poetry has been described as “breathtaking in its lyricism and musicality.” The Toronto-born MacLean is spending the next few months at the Al Purdy Aframe cabin on Roblin Lake, restored as a retreat for Canadian writers with Ms. MacLean the “first one this season.” She also appeared at the Tweed Library recently as the first 2015 author in the Friends of the Library authors series. A full “coffee house” crowd of literature lovers heard Ms. MacLean introduced by Raymond Brassard who admired her ability to “marry history and literature” and to “enter a character, the actual person and channel their voice in her poetry. It’s really an amazing technique.” Ms. MacLean currently lives and works in Edmonton where she teaches writing at Grant MacEwan College, works as a mentor with the Alberta Writers Guild and runs a business with the wonderful name “Vicious Editing.” MacLean has produced poet-

ry, fiction, non-fiction, drama, a film and a CD. She holds “a plethora of degrees” Brassard noted. He also mentioned MacLean’s connection to Al Purdy who she first met at Queen’s University. They met again a few years later when she spent a week with Purdy and his wife Eurithe while on a writers retreat and “they took her under their wing.” She recalls Purdy observing “there’s a fine line between honesty and BS.” Ms. MacLean read from her poetry beginning with a “prayer” entitled Forgive Us Our Trespasses, and spoke of the influences on her work, particularly citing Alister MacLeod and Bronwen Wallace. She spoke at length of a work she is engaged in on the true story of the 1918 flu pandemic. “A lot of my work comes from, Where’s home? Where’s the heart? Where’s the truth? Since 2002 I’ve been working on the truth of what really happened in 1918. There’s very little truth out there,” said MacLean. Her research was greatly aided by the discovery

of a trove of letters from the period which had belonged to her grandmother. The springboard of the project of creative non-fiction (“that’s become an obsession of mine”) was the discovery of a photo from an Edmonton newspaper of four women in 1918 during the Spanish flu pandemic wearing protective masks. Edmonton, as a railway hub was one of the first western centres affected by the deadly flu which travelled west from worse-hit eastern cities, particularly Boston. Her grandmother’s letters were critical to MacLean’s understanding of events in 1918 because little is available in the way of first-hand accounts and “almost all of the letters speak of the devastation of the flu … all public gatherings were closed off … people were too sick to keep records,” MacLean remarked. The New Zealand writer Katherine Mansfield is the subject of one of MacLean’s works. Another work treats with the encounters of HD–Hilda Doolittle,
