Trenton- Quinte West city council held its second meeting to discuss the 2016 capital budget and roadwork, transit and marina needs dominated deliberations. David Clazie, director of corporate and financial services, presented Mayor Jim Harrison and councillors with a list of projects the council ‘needs’ to spend money on in 2016 and a list the council ‘wants.’ With the capital budget at $8,565,000 for 2016, the council is opting to delay some projects in order to stay under budget because it does not want to incur more debt. The main project the council decided to delay was the revitalization of Division Street until 2017, leaving them the $2.2 million to put towards other projects they believe are more pressing. Council also discussed delaying the roadwork on the Brighton Road bridge until 2017, a project that will cost the city just over $250,000. By saving almost $2.5 million by delaying some projects, council would like to put $1 million towards resurfacing rural roads across the city to match $1 million in government funding for the project. They plan on spending a total of $2 million resurfacing rural roads in 2016 and another $2 million, half funded by the government again, in 2017. At the top of Councils list of needs was additional slips for the Trent Port

Marina. Council is opting to spend $700,000 to add new slips to the marina in 2016 instead of spreading out the process over the next two years. Mayor Jim Harrison said it is important to move forward and complete the full amount of slips for the marina soon because of the positive response to the new facility. “We are running a very high volume and high capacity, we feel we need the additional docks and fingers available for 2016 sooner rather than later,� he said. “We definitely think it has proven to be a great project and a good asset, so lets get it done.� Other needs include $185,000 for additional transit buses for Quinte Access, an estimated $600,000 to upgrade a deteriorated unit and replace the pool deck floor at the YMCA and $500,000 set aside for the beginning phase of building a new Fire Hall. With around $1.5 million in funds available for the ‘wants’ list, councillors approved $30,000 be put towards a councillor memorial garden at Centennial park. Other projects discusses to be brought forward into the 2016 capital budget were funds for the Old Town Hall, additional parking for the Trent Port Marina, upgrading the Frankford tourist park, beautifying the roundabout at RCAF and Hamilton road and installing lights on the gateway to the Trent Severn bridge.

Quinte West addresses the 2016 capital budget Mayor Jim Harrison said a lot of good things came of their meeting and it is important for them to make the city look its best and not be under construction for the International Air Show taking place in Trenton in June 2016.

“The city of Quinte West wants to be a very visible, high profile part of that project,â€? Mayor Harrison said. “We will do whatever we have to‌ we are certainly pleased we are doing Hwy 2 this year and not next year.â€? City council is expected to approve the 2016 capital budget on Dec. 7.

She said she feels relieved and proud of the beautiful outcome. “Roy is where he should be, representing our community,� she said. “We now have a beautiful garden where people can come and sit and enjoy the waterfront and area. It’s so nice to see it finally finished.� Smylie said she is really excited because Roy Bonisteel’s monument and garden has sparked many conversations about creating more plaques or gardens to celebrate the people who have come before us and build up the city. “It’s really exciting for me to know

that we have started something that is going to be so great,â€? Smylie said. “I hope it will raise our awareness of who the important people were in our community and just increase that level of pride that we have for Quinte West.â€? Councillor Duncan Armstrong attended the unveiling ceremony and said he would definitely like to see more gardens and memorials around the city, especially on Mount Pelion. “This is just another added attraction for our community, especially with an icon such as Roy Bonisteel being memorialized,â€? Armstrong said. “I’d like to see more‌ We care about the people who are part of our heritage.â€?

Quinte West - Community members, military officials, Quinte West mayor and councillors came together to celebrate the unveiling of the Roy Bonisteel tribute garden beside Trenton’s Trent Port Marina on Saturday Nov. 7. Roy Bonisteel’s proud friends and family attended the event to honour the highly accomplished journalist and man who felt very strongly about the community he grew up and retired in, Quinte West. “I’m just really proud to be in this community with a group of people who wanted to work together and make this beautiful tribute happen for my dad,� said Bonisteel’s daughter Lesley Bonisteel. Lesley Bonisteel said that although her father traveled the world, Quinte West was always his home. He wanted to come back and retire where his roots were, having been the seventh generation in his family to live in Quinte West. “It’s wonderful, it’s amazing how permanent this is and I’m looking forward to visiting here over and over,� she said. After beginning his career at local papers in Trenton and Belleville in the 1940’s, Bonisteel went on to become the host of CBC’s Man Alive radio show, which ran for 22 years. Bonisteel was a successful author, Order of Canada recipient and a man who was very involved in this community before his death in Quinte West at age Roy Bonisteel’s daughter, grand children, great-grandchild and organizer of the garden Angela Sm83 in 2013. ylie sit beside his statue at the unveiling of the Roy Bonisteel tribute garden on Saturday Nov. 7.

OPINION

Burma: The Lady, the General, and the Future Editorial -There are good generals in Burma – that is, generals who are not too corrupt, not too brutal, and not absolutely determined to maintain military control of the country forever. One such general is Thura Shwe Mann. Shwe Mann retired from the army in 2010 lead the newly creGwynne Dyer to ated Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP), a civilian front for the generals who still really control the country. Since that election was boycotted by the democratic opposition led by Aung San Suu Kyi (known simply as “the Lady” to most Burmese), the USDP ended up with a majority and Shwe Mann became the speaker of parliament. There was nothing in his past to suggest that he would ever jump the fence: he fought three successful campaigns against various minority ethnic groups featuring the usual human rights violations, and he was number three in the military hierarchy by the time he retired. But Shwe Mann is now Suu Kyi’s best hope for a peaceful transition to a real democratic government after next Sunday’s national election. Something happened to Shwe Mann on the way to this election. Maybe it was just the realisation that he might end up as president if he played his cards rights, but he certainly talks differently these days: “Now we are in a democracy, a different form of government that requires total dedication....Our people are living below the poverty line. We have to change everything.” That’s also what Aung San Suu Kyi wants to do: change everything. She wants to end the army’s control of 25 percent of the seats in parliament. She wants to get it out of the economy (the military now directly or indirectly control half the Burmese economy.) And above all she wants to stand for the presidency (the constitution written by the army forbids her to run). Could the Lady and the General actually cooperate? It looked like that to the current president, ex-general Thein Sein, because Shwe Mann was openly talking about a possible post-election coalition that would include both his own USDP and Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy (NLD). So in September troops surrounded the USDP’s headquarters – and when they left Shwe Mann was no longer the party’s leader. Suu Kyi will still probably need Shwe Mann, because this election is not going to be like the last free election in 1990, when the NLD swept the

board. (Of course, the military just ignored the outcome and Aung San Suu Kyi spent most of the intervening quarter-century in jail or under house arrest, so there is no foolproof formula for political success in Burma.) But the military clearly don’t want to go back to that style of rule now, because the facade of democracy has ended sanctions, foreign investment is rolling in, and army officers are getting rich. So much better if you can sabotage the actual democracy without destroying the facade. Athough the NLD will probably get a big win in this election, it will have trouble turning that into a government. It hasn’t managed to attract the support of the ethnic minorities, who see it as an ethnic Burmese party with the usual centralising instincts. It must also face the fact that 25 percent of the members of parliament will be military officers appointed by the high command. And the USDP, although tainted by its military origin, will gain votes because of a shamelessly Islamophobic campaign by ultra-nationalist Buddhist monks who paint Suu Kyi’s NLD as a proMuslim party. Suu Kyi should defend Burma’s beleaguered Muslim minority (only 4 percent), but she dares not do so publicly because that would lose her even more votes. So here’s the deal. The NLD will win more than 50 percent of the seats, but it probably won’t get 67 percent, which is what it would need to elect a president over the opposition of the military bloc in parliament. Suu Kyi can’t run for the presidency anyway, because the constitution, written especially with her in mind, says the president must not have foreign relatives. (Suu Kyi’s husband was English, so her two sons have British passports.) But if Suu Kyi and Shwe Mann form a coalition – although he is no longer the USDP’s leader, he could probably bring a large chunk of his party with him – then that coalition could elect a new president and form a government. The president would have to be Shwe Mann (for constitutional reasons), but Suu Kyi could be the most powerful member of his cabinet, which would be loaded with NLD members. Not a marriage made in heaven, perhaps, but much better than an anti-democratic coup by a panicked military. Burma was never going to become a full democracy in a single breath-taking leap, but this outcome would get it a long way down the road without panicking the army. Burma has been ruled by brutal, ignorant and incompetent soldiers for more than fifty years, and what was once the richest country in South-East Asia is now the poorest. It’s time for a change. Take what you can get now, and come back for more later. Gwynne Dyer is an independent journalist whose articles are published in 45 countries.

American politics – Hunter S. Thompson is spinning in his grave By Chris Malette There was a saying on t-shirts some time back that said “Who are these cooler heads and why do they always prevail?” We would all hope those cooler heads win the day south of the border as the American election of 2016 heats up. It’s been a parade of bull-crazed lunacy in the Lower 48 and this one doesn’t even include Sarah Palin. We’re speaking of the rogues gallery of crazies, fundamentalist whip-crackers and outright nuts who have put their names forward for the Republican nomination for president in 2016. Yes, kind reader, it’s a full year away and the insanity has already been rolling on television screens, airways and news pages for almost as long to now. How crazy are the things that trip from the lips of the 16 people who would lead the free world’s most powerful country? Consider that, recently, candidate Mike Huckabee suggested that as president he would use the military to prevent abortions within U.S. borders. Ben Carson (himself black) has compared national healthcare to antebellum slavery. Oh, there’s more. Jeb Bush boasted that his brother, George W. Bush, would be his trusted advisor on international relations despite his sketchy reputation on foreign policy and Ted Cruz’s opinions on The U.S. negotiations with Iran cast Obama as “the world’s leading financier of radical Islamic terrorism.” On the left, there seems to be more stability among the Democrats, but it’s more interesting, too, to see who’s likely to take America’s centre-left into next November’s election. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the self-declared democratic socialist who is currently leading Hillary Clinton in some polls, recently drew more than 27,000 to a rally in Los Angeles. In most recent polls, Ben Carson, the pediatric neurosurgeon who is currently lapping every Republican contender not named Donald Trump, looks to be gaining serious traction, despite the fact he’s made some pretty outlandish statements himself. (On veterans dying while waiting for medical care from U.S. veterans care hospitals: “I think what’s hap­pen­ing with the vet­er­ans is a gift from God to show us what hap­pens when you take lay­ers and lay­ers of bur­eau­cracy and place them between the pa­tients and the health

care pro­vider…”) Christian minister and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee says he has “never in my life tasted a beer, ever,” and believes homosexuality is a sin that can be cleansed through prayer and therapy. But, the list of head-scratching zaniness goes on from there. There’s Ted Cruz (is he Canadian or just plain crazy?), Marco Rubio (Rubio explains America shouldn’t do anything about climate change because it will destroy the economy and “America is not a planet”) and of course Jeb Bush. A president named Jeb? Yessir. Jeb. Never mind his last name is Bush, his first name is Jeb. How about Goober for secretary of state? Trump, of course, is the grand buffoon of all. There’s his infamous quotes about Mexicans to consider when crowning him the prince of koo-koo. “When Mexico sends its people, they are not sending their best. [...] They are sending people that have lots of problems. They are bringing those problems to us. They are bringing drugs and they are bringing crime and their rapists, and some are good people, and I speak to border guards and they tell us what we are getting.” While this is a thumbnail sketch of some of the wilder and more pragmatic candidates in the American election is very, very superficial, at best, anyone who happens to tune into an American news program or pays attention to our neighbour’s politics understands this is an election like no other before it in U.S. political history. The simple fact Republicans must choose from a panoply of candidates that has, at its most viable and outrageous the race-baiting billionaire trump and followed by a gaggle of far-right Tea Party ravers, tinhorn ministers and fear-mongering isolationists and you have a cage match like nothing we’ve ever been so lucky to watch from the sidelines. While we can smugly snicker at the wackiness of the current American political farce playing out on the airwaves, one thing is clear. We will have to live, as with the hoary old saying “When America sneezes, we catch its cold,” with the outcome almost as seriously impactful as it will affect our American cousins. Here’s hoping those cooler heads prevail.

Trenton Town Hall launches largest photo album during difficult financial struggle Trenton - It is a bittersweet time for volunteers and Trent Port historical society members at the heritage and cultural centre in the old Trenton Town Hall. The historical society, in charge of the day-to-day operations at the Old Town Hall, built in 1861, is proud to announce they are working on building Quinte West’s largest online photo album, full of local history. Shawn Ellis, president of the historical society, said they have been scanning thousands of photos for over a year now and gathering information about the old photos from community members, mainly through Facebook. “Our Facebook page, right now, has 1310 members and every day Connie puts posts up,” Ellis said. “On every post she puts up we are usually getting anywhere from 600 to 5,000 views, some go as high as 13,000.” Ellis said they rely on the views and

comments from community members to gather a lot of information about people, places and buildings in each photo. He stresses that pictures are really important pieces of history and doesn’t want Quinte West’s rich history to be lost. “We’ve lost a whole generation of pictures,” he said. “If we can start gathering everything from the 1930’s, where people can still remember, right up until now and start putting this history together, it will preserve the history for permanent.” Ellis said they are only just starting and currently have around 30 photos uploaded to the website, Trentontownhall. ca. Approximately 24,000 photos have been scanned and upwards of 500,000 more photos are in the process of being scanned, donated by the Trentonian, ranging in time from 1957 to 2001. The excitement over creating Quinte West’s largest database of history is somewhat overshadowed by the financial stress the historical society mem-

Take notice that on Wednesday, December 2, 2015 at 4:30pm the City of Quinte West Corporate and Financial Services Committee will hold a public meeting pursuant to the Development Charges Act, 1997, regarding proposed development charge rates and policies to be applied throughout the City. It is proposed that enactment of new a development charge by-law by Council will occur at a subsequent meeting of Quinte West Council on December 7th 2015. Development Charges are levied against new development and are a primary source of funding for development-related capital expenditures. The 2015 Development Charges Background Study relates to the provision of the services of Library, Fire, Police, Outdoor Recreation, Administration, Roads and Related, Water and Wastewater. Council is required, under the Development Charges Act, 1997, to hold at least one public meeting to allow the public the opportunity to review and provide comments on the 2015 City of Quinte West Development Charges Background Study and the proposed Development Charges By-law. All interested parties are invited to attend the public meeting on: Date and Time: Wednesday, December 2, 2015 at 4:30pm Location: Council Chambers, City Hall, City of Quinte West 7 Creswell Drive, Trenton, ON, K8V 5R6 Copies of the 2015 Development Charges Background Study and the draft Development Charges By-law will be available at least two weeks prior to the Meeting through the Clerk’s office, City Hall and the Frankford Municipal Office as well as on the City’s website at www.quintewest.ca Written submissions are invited and should be directed to David Clazie, Director, Corporate & Financial Services at davidc@quintewest.ca. Written comments received prior to the meeting and submissions made at the Public Meeting will be considered by Council prior to the enactment of new development charge by-law. Dated at the City of Quinte West this 12th day of November, 2015. Kevin Heath, Clerk City Hall, City of Quinte West 7 Creswell Drive, Trenton, ON, K8V 5R6

bers say they have felt for the past year and a half, since the upstairs James Alexander Theatre was closed due to safety concerns and no revenue from the theatre has been coming in. Without any income for a year and a half from ticket sales, renting the theatre for productions or groups looking to use the space for an event, Ellis said the Old Town Hall is in debt and can barely keep up with the bills, let alone pay for the $80,000 fire curtain that must be installed in order for the theatre to reopen. He said the group currently has a disconnection notice for the hydro in effect and without funding, they will most likely be forced to liquidate all of their assets and close the doors by Christmas. These concerns have been echoed by Mayor Jim Harrison who said the city is definitely going to address the matter and put money aside for the Old Town Hall in the 2016 budget. “We recognize that (Old Town Hall) needs some improvements and we recognize that we have got to support it, we are looking at how we are going to do that,” Mayor Jim Harrison said at a budget deliberation meeting on Monday Nov. 9. “History of this area is important to all of us.” The financial problems the Old Town Hall is facing will be brought forward with a presentation to city council at the next council meeting on Monday Nov. 16. Council will decide how much funding will be put towards updating and bringing the building up to safety standards.

St. Paul’s students walk 20 km for Syrian refugees By Erin Stewart Trenton - More than 300 St. Paul’s Secondary School staff, students and community members recently embarked on a 20 km pilgrimage along the Murray Canal and raised more than $10,000 to help aid Syrian families coming to the Quinte region. “The pain, this is nothing to us, they have to carry a lot more on their back. They probably have broken backs and they’re still going, I feel really bad for them” said Mark Perry, 13, in Grade 9 at St. Paul’s, at the halfway (10 km) mark of the trek. Perry carried his backpack and said he was already feeling the pain in his back after 10 km. The mud, sticks and difficult footing along the canal made the walking hard and Perry said it made him feel “really bad because they have to walk farther and they have to carry a lot more stuff.” St. Paul’s teacher Phil Carney said students who wanted to be involved in

the pilgrimage each pledged $20 but many went above and beyond that. They are donating over $10,000 to Quinte Immigration Services to help Syrian refugees coming to the Quinte region. “The pilgrimage is, on many levels, to raise money but it is also to act in solidarity with refugee families,” he said. “The 20 km that all students and staff have done today is symbolic of the walk that a family would do leaving a war-torn country.” Along the trek, students collected stamps on passports and would have to face obstacles and checkpoints that were there to mimic crossing the boarder of a country and getting closer to their destination. “Our school has always been that small school with the big heart,” Carney said. “This is just another example of how we are indeed that school.” Orlando Ferro, Executive Director at Quinte Immigration Services, said he is thankful for the support and dona-

tions from St. Paul’s and across the region. “Even if we can save a few people and bring them to Canada to safety it’s a great thing,” Ferro said. “For those students to be doing that at their age, it’s fantastic… it shows how Canada can be accepting of newcomers.” Thanks to the help of the region, multiple Syrian refugee families are currently in the process of being sponsored to move to the Quinte Region said Ferro. “At this point in time in Belleville, two [Syrian] families, with four and five members each, have already got their confirmation and they will be arriving very soon,” Ferro said. There have been some delays with bringing families to the area Ferro said but the first confirmed family is going to be arriving in Belleville in two weeks, thanks to the sponsorship from Belleville’s Bridge Street Church. The $10,000 from the St. Paul com-

munity and other donations to Quinte Immigration Services is going towards supporting these families upon their arrival Ferro said. The organization will provide services the government has not given funding for, including transportation and especially with the high cost of certified interpreters in the Arabic language. “Interpretation costs are one of the highest costs,” Ferro said. “There are not too many interpreters for the Arabic language, we are going through great efforts now to make sure that those services are available upon arrival of the families.” Ferro said there are currently no certified interpreters in the area, which creates a higher cost to make sure an interpreter travels to the area and stays to provide the language service. In addition to the two confirmed refugee families coming to Belleville, Quinte Immigration Services is also helping a number of communities across their attachment area through

the process of sponsoring more families. “It’s a long road ahead and I just hope that we are going to try our best to make sure that the people coming over are welcomed, that they will have a less stressful path to integration in the community,” Ferro said. “Hopefully peace will be found in our region.” Ferro said Napanee, Tweed, Brighton and Prince Edward County are in the process or have intentions to sponsor a family, including sponsoring a family with 15 members by Prince Edward County. “We would like to thank everybody involved in the fundraising efforts,” Ferro said. “It’s very appreciated and I’m confident that those who are going to be helped by those efforts will be very thankful as well.” If people wish to donate to Quinte Immigration Services they can contact Quinte Immigration Services at 613968-7723.

No shortage of information at expo for seniors at Batawa community centre

Batawa – When Judy Clark, Batawa Community Development (BCD) coordinator, was looking for ways to keep her elderly parents active and healthy, she attended a few expos for seniors in their home town of Chatham. “They were immensely helpful,” she said, as she was able to arrange with local agencies such as the Community Care Access Centre to provide services for her mother and father. As a result of that experience, Clark decided the same sort of expo would prove useful in Batawa, especially for people like her who don’t live near their parents and want to find out what’s available. Thus was born the Batawa Senior’s Expo in 2014. “Last year we really didn’t know how many people to expect but we ended up having about 300, which in

DCB\FT_

Batawa is quite a lot of people,” said BCD’s communications coordinator Philip Baldwin. Someone said she been stopped on the street in Trenton and told “if you’re not in Batawa right now you are making a mistake, so the word of mouth was really, really excellent.” Response for the second expo was shaping up to be even better late in the morning at the Batawa Community Centre Nov. 6 where a steady stream of visitors wound its way among more than 50 displays, up a few from last year. There was a wide array of services, including recreation, education, finance, long-term care, travel and tourism, health, entertainment, home renovations, fitness, and more. Admission was free and so was the food, prepared by Batawa Ski Hill chef Nelson Bridger, which drew a long lineup.

Many of this year’s visitors were discovering what others had learned before them at the first expo. “They were surprised at the information they gathered and the services that are available in our area,” Clark said. It was Marilyn Morrow’s first expo and the Wooler resident was “very impressed” as well as “a little overwhelmed” by the amount of good information being dispensed. “I didn’t realize there would be so many services,” she said. Holding an expo for seniors is “a wonderful idea.” Clark said the event made for “a lot of happy people,” because it’s a gathering place where friends who haven’t seen each other for a while can meet and sit down over lunch to talk, as well as enjoy door prizes, vendor giveaways, guest speakers, and entertainment, and be exposed to a wealth of information. “We learned a lot [and] we got 20, 2015 a lot of things,” Joan Coll said, but her main reason in attending was

Trenton MFRC launches Veteran Family Program By Ross Lees Trenton - Medically released Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) personnel or those about to be medically released can now access the Veteran Family Program at the Trenton Military Family Resource Centre (MFRC). Introduced to the community last week, the program allows the MFRC to offer the program to those who have been medically released effective Nov. 30, 2014, for six months prior to release and for two years post-release. Services available for veterans and their families consist of community integration and development, transition support, intervention support, employment and education services, second language classes, access to 24/7 bilingual family information line, children and youth workshops and personal growth and development programs. But community buy-in is essential to the success of the program, stated Kelly Briggs, the MFRC’s veteran family coordinator. “Community partnership is a key cog

in this program,” she noted. The Trenton MFRC is one of seven resource centres across Canada that are offering the program. The primary goal of the program is to assist veterans and their families in developing strong roots in the community in which they retire. “Medically released veterans are a resource that our community needs to tap into and we are going to ensure that happens by working with our partners. Community partnership is key to the success of this program.” said MFRC executive director Tamara Kleinschmidt. The program can be accessed through self-referral or by an organization referral from a community partner or 8 Wing/CFB Trenton. Mrs. Kleinschmidt felt it was important to reiterate a point made previously by Mrs. Briggs. “This program’s success will depend Kelly Briggs, the MFRC’s veteran family coordinator, makes a point during the presentation introducing the Veteran Family Program to the community. on the buy-in and ties to the commu- Photos by Ross Lees nity,” she said.

Full house for Veterans Dinner celebration in Frankford By Erin Stewart Frankford- There was a full house for Frankford’s annual Veterans Dinner celebration at the Frankford Legion Branch 387 on Sunday Nov. 9. Pete Brodeur, member of the legion, said the dinner had almost double the amount of people attend this year, ďŹ lling all of the seats available, thanks to better advertising to get the word out. “Normally we have about 45 people, this year we have over 90,â€? Brodeur said. “We do this for our veterans, remembrance is what it’s all about.â€? The dinner saw more than 40 veterans in attendance, including two Second World War veterans, Robert Sharpe, 95, and Don Anderson, 88. Anderson said he joined the forces in Trenton 10 days before he turned 17. He said he has attended the dinner before and it’s always a really nice event. “Bob and I really appreciate the hon-

our of attending tonightâ€? Anderson spoke for himself and fellow WWII veteran friend, Sharpe. “The people are very thoughtful‌ nice to feel appreciated.â€? Veterans always eat for free at the event and guests pay $12 for a full, home cooked meal. Kenneth Lavery, 83, also attended the Frankford Legion’s Veterans Dinner. He was in the US army for 32 years and came to the event with his son, who is a member of the Frankford Legion. “Soldiers are soldiers ‌ it’s something that you share no matter what country you live in,â€? Lavery said. “To me it’s something that people should never ever forget.â€? Lavery said the dinner was enjoyable and he hopes that the younger generations can continue to appreciate and remember the military members who Two WWII veterans, Don Anderson, 88, (L) and Robert Sharpe, 95, (R) said they had a wonderful time at the Frankford Legion’s annual Veterans Dinner have gone before them. on Sunday Nov. 8.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

TMH here to stay: QHC board chair

The following letter was sent to local media outlets by QHC board chair Tricia Anderson in response to a letter to QHC, also circulated last week, by Dave Fairfield, President of Quinte West Chamber of Commerce .

was Chaired by Glenn Rainbird and included representation from patients and community members, physicians, Our TMH, QHC, the Local Health Integration Network and other local health care partners. Their final report is an important reminder that the cornerstone of an effective health care system is strong primary care services that keep people healthy and in their own homes. This includes family physicians, nurse practitioners, home care, better chronic disease management and other community support services. We look forward to working with our partners to determine how we can together move the Committee’s seven recommendations forward in order to better meet the health care needs of patients and families in Brighton and Quinte West. In your letter, you have asked for a review to be conducted of Quinte Health Care’s operations. Let me assure you the Ministry and SE LHIN have already reviewed Quinte Health Care’s draft 2016/17 operating plans and long-term distribution of clinical services. In addition, we also proactively engaged Hay Group to ensure all potential avenues for efficiency and effectiveness had been ap-

propriately identified and assessed. Hay Group is the provincial expert with respect to assessing hospital performance and typically conducts operational reviews for the Ministry of Health. Therefore, in all material regards, an operational review has already been undertaken and the resulting recommendations incorporated in the investigative process. I want to specifically address your misperception that there has been a “buildup of services” at BGH. In reality, every hospital has changed, with less inpatient beds and more services being appropriately delivered by other care providers in the local communities. In fact, substantially more savings are coming out of BGH in the draft 2016/17 plans. The Board will need to make our final decisions in January, following nine months of community engagement, investigation, review and the union staff planning processes. While we have been doing this due diligence and community engagement, other hospitals have been continuing to gain further efficiencies within their organizations, potentially causing us to fall further behind in comparison, which will negatively impact

QHC in the Ministry of Health hospital funding formula in future years. Delaying the process further, as you have requested, would not only push QHC into a deficit position, but would significantly and negatively hurt the regional hospitals in future years. The Chamber of Commerce can be part of the solution to create an even better future. Help us and our health care partners to create a future “system of care” as described in the Brighton/Quinte West Health Services Advisory Committee’s report. Where residents can walk through any door at the future Trenton Health Centre and easily access the care they need, whether it’s in the emergency room, a Family Health Team clinic, Community Health Centre service, or diagnostic test. We know this is the future health care system that the residents of Quinte West and Brighton deserve. We are willing to put our energy into helping make this vision a reality. I hope you will support this very worthwhile endeavor. Sincerely, Tricia Anderson QHC Board Chair

R0013537991

Dear Mr. Fairfield, Thank you for your November 3 letter to the QHC Board. I appreciate having the opportunity to try and address your concerns and share our vision for the future of health care in the Brighton/Quinte West area. In addition to being the volunteer QHC Board Chair, I also work in Trenton and am a Quinte West taxpayer. I care about the local health care system and I want to rally the community’s energy to create a model health care system in Quinte West, which will include a strong Trenton Memorial Hospital. I do want to be very clear that Trenton Memorial Hospital is here to stay. TMH will continue to have a 24 hour emergency room, inpatient beds, diagnostics, surgical and ambulatory procedures. TMH will be a vital piece of the local health care system for many, many years

to come and I personally hope for generations to come. The current proposal to reduce the surgery done at TMH by 2400 procedures does not impact the future of this hospital. TMH can be a vibrant primary care hospital with a strong future without performing the region-wide day surgeries, just like many other wonderful primary care hospitals across Canada. Currently, more than half the people having their surgery at TMH live outside the Quinte West area. Instead of fighting to keep services at TMH for people who live elsewhere, we should instead be focused on how we can provide better local access to the wide range health care services that the residents of Brighton and Quinte West most frequently need. You have said in your letter that we need a broader vision of what health care deliver should look like in Quinte. You don’t need to look any farther than the excellent report and recommendations produced by the Brighton/Quinte West Health Services Advisory Committee for possible answers to create an even better local health care system (available at www.qhc.on.ca). This is the group that

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Wyley gives advice to new prime minister

Dear Justin, (I can call you that because I’m old enough to be your father). Speaking of that, the last time I voted Liberal it was for your father and we were wearing bell-bottoms and long hair with sideburns. That’s a long time and hair ago. On the other hand we old-timers have seen a lot of good things, and mistakes made, by our leadership over the years - especially recently. Here’s some advice for you, my son. 1) Be very careful listening to suggestions from Ms. Wynne and her Ontario helpers. Even though your team includes several former members of the McGuinty/Wynne administration, this group have an exceptionally poor track record of missteps and colossal give-aways. An article of faith was offered to you on Oct. 19, don’t repeat their errors. 2) We are actually very close in our economy, especially in manufacturing, to becoming losers. The most important reason is the high cost of power. Transit and modernizing cities’ and towns’ infrastructure are also crucial but you would be well-advised to spend a good deal of your infrastructure money setting up corridors to transport power from Canada’s cheapest sources: Manitoba and Newfoundland’s water resources and the Bay of Fundy’s tides. Power is essential, and don’t even think about solar and wind - they are like little unreliable creeks compared to hydrological

generation from oceans and vast northern rivers and lakes. A sidebar to this effort may be criticism and obstruction from Quebec and native interests. Nimbyism and selďŹ shness cannot be allowed to prejudice Canada’s bootstrap projects. 3) Further to the infrastructure spending: - drill down to the most cost-effective contractors. It is sad to watch the wasteful “effortsâ€? of many of today’s labourers - especially in the public sector. You must get a productive bang for those billions of borrowed bucks! The leadership, managers, foremen, and lead hands must get an honest days’ work from everyone or be rapidly replaced. 4) One of the brightest lights around is Ms. Elizabeth May. Make sure that your group is inclusive of her, even though she “worksâ€? for, and is, a different band-leader. 5) The last leader of Canada started out well until it looked like the Martians, (tastefully disguised for Halloween as Administrative Whizbangs and/or Senators), somehow weaselled into Harper’s head. Most of Canada obviously liked your sunny up-beat approach - so don’t let it bog down. This country could be on the cusp of being great again.

Santa coming to town – via new parade route event is, as usual, expected to be a colourful and fascinating display to get Bellevillians into the Christmas spirit. Susan Walsh, the chamber’s special events co-ordinator, said that 60 to 80 floats are expected this year and many of them will be large and colourful. This year’s event will mark the 17th year of a night-time parade. The Chamber moved to a night-time parade to encourage the floats to be more colourful. “We’ve tried to express the concept that a parade is like putting on a show; it’s about the entertainment value, especially a winter parade,” Walsh said. “Over the last three years we’ve really stressed the lights – there’s no such thing as too much lighting.” Walsh said the Chamber has been encouraged to see businesses get behind the event by putting together creative and colourful floats. She’s expecting the assembly spot, behind Quinte Secondary School, to be maxed out, owing to the size of the floats this year. “They realize if I’m going to drive down the street with my business vehicle and trailer, I want people to remember my business – I don’t want it to be a blur going by,” Walsh said. The Chamber has also found that

Art Walk debuts at newly-named Belleville Downtown Gallery District By Stephen Petrick

Belleville – The corner of Bridge and Pinnacle streets in downtown Belleville isn’t just another urban intersection anymore. It’s now known at the Belleville Downtown Gallery District. A new era was ushered in for the area on Thursday, Nov. 5, when the first Downtown Belleville Art Walk took place. Art lovers were encouraged to stop by seven art-related businesses within a stone’s throw of the intersection: They were Rutland Galleries International, Lisa Morris-Peter Paylor Artists and Artisans, Funk & Gruven A-Z, Gallery 121, the Quinte Arts Council, the Belleville Art Association at Sans Souci and the Parrott Gallery at the Belleville Public Library. “Every cosmopolitan city has an art district,” said Peter Paylor. “Why shouldn’t we?” Paylor and Lisa Morris recently opened a gallery at 54 Bridge St. E. Another well-known local artist, Michael Rutland, also recently opened a gallery around the corner on Pinnacle Street.

When those two businesses opened, The Belleville Club’s Grant Freestone got to thinking that the intersection has enough art-related business to market itself as an “art district.” He suggested representatives from the seven businesses have a meeting to discuss the idea and, to his surprise, everyone agreed to meet the next day at the Belleville Club, located directly above most of the businesses. The idea took wings much quicker than anyone expected, and within days the idea of a monthly art walk was created. The intention is to have it on the first Thursday of every month from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
“Everyone wanted to jump in,” Freestone said. “We organized the art walk and away it went.” Freestone said he liked the idea of naming the area a “district” and having an evening art walk, because recently he attended a similar event in Toronto’s arsty Yorkville district that was well attended. He thought the same concept would go well here. “It was neat to have access to the artists after hours,” Freestone said. Paylor and Morris had a steady stream of people coming into their studio just after 5 p.m. on Thursday.

Both said they loved the idea of the art years, but he’s happy to be back in is rich,” he said, adding that the comwalk and have been pleased with the downtown Belleville now, saying he bination of art galleries, restaurants positive response to their studio since senses that efforts to grow and im- and cafes in the area have the potenopening. prove the downtown have been reju- tial to make downtown Belleville They said they liked the idea because venated. boom. “Then you have young mobile they feel it’s important for artists to “Once arts and culture comes you people saying ‘hey, this is cool.’ That’s co-promote each other. 
“Lisa calls it start creating a downtown core that what starts making these places.” the ‘food-court’ model,” Paylor said, with a smile. Lisa would then explain that when several artist businesses are all bundled in the same location, it tends to lead to crowds. “It becomes a destination,” she said. “It’s a place to get multiple things done.” Rutland also said he was pleased with the idea of the walk and naming the area a “district.” Rutland has lived in the area on and Lisa Morris and Peter Paylor have a new studio at 54 Bridge Street East. They’re also participating in the new Downtown Beloff over several leville Art Walk. Photo by Stephen Petrick

Top Vocals and Piano in Ontario

Belleville – Each year, more than 100,000 people across Canada try Conservatory Canada’s music exams, but very few will receive the highest marks. This year, the Belleville counted five young musicians who received the top marks in their respective Conservatory grades. These students demonstrate a strong commitment to excellence and will be honoured at the 2015 Conservatory Canada Convocation on Saturday, Nov. 14 in London, Ontario. Those winning awards are: Amy Park, (age 17) who will be awarded the prestigious Don and Lillian Wright National Travel and Study Scholarship. Amy has completed the requirements for the Associate Performers’ vocal diploma with 88 per cent, a First Class Honours Standing. Natasha Mullins, (age 16) who received the highest mark in Ontario for Level 8 Contemporary Voice and will also be awarded the Don and Lillian Wright national Travel and Study Scholarship. Natasha received a mark of 92% and a standing of First Class Honours with Distinction on her Level 8 voice examination. Derrick Ho, (age 15) who received the highest mark in Ontario for Level 4 Contemporary Voice with a mark of 90 per cent and a standing of First Class Honours with Distinction. Andrew Powell (age 13) who received the highest mark in Ontario for Grade 5

Classical Voice with a mark of 86 per cent and a standing of First Class Honours. Alexander Kohlsmith, (age 13) who received the highest mark in Level 6 Contemporary Piano with a mark of 95 per cent and a standing of First Class Honours with Distinction and will be awarded the Denis and Patricia Frehlich Scholarship. Michael Faulkner, the students’ private piano, vocal and theory teacher, said “he was overjoyed” when he heard the news. “It is a huge honour to be recognized at the provincial and national level. These students represent the very best of the best and it is so wonderful to see their commitment to excellence being rewarded,” he said. This sentiment is echoed by Michael’s students. “It feels so wonderful to have won!” said Andrew Powell. “Winning the medal of excellence feels amazing. The first time I won the medal it was really great but winning it a second time was just so surprising. Receiving this medal makes me feel honoured and appreciated for my efforts,” said Alexander Kohlsmith. “It is a really special feeling when you put so much time and effort into a skill and you’re rewarded for it,” Natasha Mullins explained. To people who are just beginning their musical journey, Derrick Ho advises “to

love what you are learning…because when you are truly passionate about music and enjoy learning, you are then able to put the hard work into your practices and gain success.” Amy Park agreed, stating that her ad-

vice for beginner students is “to keep working hard, because practice makes perfect!” Natasha Mullin’s also recommends that new musicians “should perform whenever they are given the opportu-

nity,” explaining that “it’s the best way to gain experience, get feedback and become more confident in your ability.” Each of the students wished to thank their parents and their music teacher, Faulkner, for all of their support.

Million dollar smiles

Brighton – Four massive reasons to smile tumbled into the Ontario Lottery centre Monday to collect a cool million dollars. A group of four women from the Brighton area told ofďŹ cials they are overjoyed after winning the “Guaranteed $1 Million Prizeâ€? from the Nov. 4, 2015 LOTTO 6/49 draw. “I scanned the ticket on the self-checker and counted all the zeros. I couldn’t believe it,â€? said group leader Susan, while she and her three colleagues were at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto Monday where they picked up their winnings. Susan gathered the three women into the ďŹ tting room of The Clan Shoppe, a clothing store in Brighton where they work together, to share the news of their big win.

“We all feel very overwhelmed, grateful and blessed,� Susan added. Members of the group already have big plans for their windfall including renovations, travel and saving for retirement. The four winners are: Susan Boers, of Trenton; Debra Holland, of Brighton; Louise Boers, of Brighton; Patricia White St. Georges, of Brighton. LOTTO 6/49 includes a Guaranteed $1 Million Prize Draw along with each and every regular draw. There have been 251 Guaranteed $1 Million Prize Draws to date. One hundred and six winning tickets have been sold in Ontario. The winning ticket was purchased at Sobey’s on Main Street in Brighton.

The Circuit Riders return to Bridge Street Belleville -- The Circuit Riders are returning to Bridge Street United Church on Sat. Nov. 21 at 1:30 p.m. The performance is a gallop through the early days of Belleville’s history when the Methodist Circuit Riding Preachers spread their faith like wildfire through the highways and byways of the Bay of Quinte in the early 1800s. Their story is told through vignettes, memoirs and historical re-enactments interspersed with rousing Wesleyan hymns. Among the events highlighted are the first Methodist Class meeting held 200 years ago in Belleville in November 1815, and the building of the Pinnacle Street Methodist Chapel two years later, the first church of any denomination in Belleville. Almost all the United Churches in Belleville can trace their roots back to that ďŹ rst Pinnacle Street chapel, which accounts for the large number of local clergy in the cast. According to The Circuit Riders author, Veronica Leonard, “Many of our local ministry including Rev. Ed Bentley, Rev. Cathy Russell of St Matthews United,

Rev. Steve Spicer of Wellington United, Rev. Barb Willard of Westminster United, Rev. David Mundy and Rev. Vicki Fulcher of Bridge Street, and lay minister Ken Whatman will attempt to channel the spirit of those early circuit riding preachers and their followers. “We are also fortunate to have Alderville historian and Band Councilor David Mowat, whose ancestor John Simpson was one of the first Mississauga peoples to be converted to Methodism, talking about his experience with the Grape Island Mission to the Mississauga from 1827-1837.� The MC and Narrator for the Circuit Riders is local author Janet Kellough, whose Thaddeus Lewis mysteries have cast a shining light on the role of the circuit riders and the life of our early settlers. She will be autographing her books after the service. There is no charge for the Circuit Riders but a freewill offering will be taken to support the Syrian Refugee Settlement programs sponsored by several United Churches in Belleville and Prince Edward County.

3. Dispose of hazardous waste properly. Take all of your unused paints, cleaners, pesticides, and medical prescriptions to your hazardous waste facility. 4. Use non-toxic products for cleaning. Use environmentally-friendly soaps, shampoos, and personal care products. Remember, what you use in your house goes down the drain and may enter local water supplies. 5. Clean up your pets waste. Pet waste contains nutrients and pathogens that can run into your storm sewers during a rain storm if not cleaned up regularly. 6. Prevent pollutant runoff. By reducing or eliminating the use of pesticides, fertilizers, sidewalk salts and by not overwatering your lawn, you can prevent pollutant runoff. If you run an agricultural operation and haven’t already, consider developing a nutrient management plan.

8. Take care when refueling gas tanks. When you are refueling cars, lawn mowers, chainsaws, weed trimmers, tractors, or other machinery, try your best to avoid spilling fuel in the ground. One litre of gas can contaminate a million litres of ground water.

;CAB 0@7<5 7< 1=C>=<

2. Think Before You Flush. Sewer and septic systems are not designed to dispose of anything beyond human waste, toilet paper and wastewater. Any other item, even if it claims to be flushable, should not be flushed down the toilet.

7. Don’t put anything except water down storm drains. These drains carry storm water to our local waterways, without any treatment.

9. Take your car to a commercial car wash. Commercial car washes are designed to prevent pollutant runoff from entering storm water sewers. Use commercial car washes that use water efficient sprays, which also reduces water consumption.

1. Conserve Water. Not only does conserving water help to maintain a constant supply of drinking water, but too little water in a source can mean contaminants are more concentrated, and therefore may be above acceptable levels.

Health unit to begin watching e-cigarette use Belleville – The region’s outspoken medical officer of health is unequivocally not in the camp of those who condemn the use of e-cigarettes. In fact, Dr. Richard Schabas says, while the local health unit will indeed go along with provincial restrictions of the use of the vapor-producing ‘smokeless cigarettes,’ he sees them as a possibly less-harmful alternative to smoking cigarettes. With Schabas’ reservations, there’s some confusion surrounding the health unit’s role, given that there’s mixed feelings within the medical community on whether e-cigarettes should be considered an effective smoking cessation tool or a device that encourages smoking. The issue was discussed at the Wednesday, Nov. 4 board of health meeting in Belleville, following a report by Roberto Almeida, a health protection program manager. “This is an unusual situation where we are undertaking a regulatory role that we have some concerns about,” said Dr. Richard Schabas, the Medical Officer of Health, summarizing Almeida’s report. “We think the issue about electronic cigarettes is a little fuzzy.” An e-cigarette is a relatively new product that simulates the experience of smoking, without tobacco consumption. It has a battery powered vaporizer and the user activates it by taking a puff. In May, Ontario passed the Electronic Cigarette Act, which requires health units to monitor use of the product in many of the same ways they would monitor cigarette use. As of January, the health unit will be required to enforce the legislation, which states that e-cigarettes cannot be sold to minors and cannot be sold in stores not permitted to sell cigarettes. “Anywhere where tobacco is not al-

lowed to be used, the same will apply to electronic cigarettes,” Almeida added. The health unit has also been given additional funding to hire another inspector to enforce the legislation. But this legislation, in some ways, contradicts a report from an overseas health organization that Almeida spoke about on Wednesday. He presented details from a report by Public Health England, which argues that electronic cigarettes are 95 per cent less harmful than regular cigarettes – and that, Almeida and Schabas suggested, is a conservative estimate. The report also suggests that e-cigarettes are attracting few people who have never smoked into regular e-cigarette use and that encouraging smokers to switch to e-cigarettes could reduce smokingrelated diseases, death and health inequalities. Almeida said Hasting Prince Edward Public Health will advocate for more research into the effects of ecigarettes. Schabas suggested that more information is needed because there’s confusion on whether e-cigarettes should

be promoted or discouraged. He said there’s no evidence to support that ecigarettes are a “gateway drug” for young people, since they’re expensive. “It doesn’t fit the characteristics of a gateway drug,” he said. “Are they going to normalize smoking behavior? I think there are legitimate concerns there.” On the other hand, Schabas pointed out, “there may be smokers out there who think this is the only way they can quit.” He went on to say there are vastly fewer harmful ingredients in the liquid used to create vapour in ecigarettes than in traditional tobacco versions. Despite this, the health unit is required to enforce the legislation. “We’re going to go ahead for An e-cigarette is an electronic device that mimics the act of smoking, but without tobacco consumpthe next 12 months and do what we’re tion. Hasting Prince Edward Public Health will soon be asked to enforce legislation limiting their use. required to do,” Schabas said. Photo by Stephen Petrick

A long, winding road leads to Brighton at 42 years of age, due to a recession, he was collecting unemployment cheques, and deeply concerned over what to do after that ran out. So, while sitting in a bar, one day, he overheard some “suits� talking about education. In the washroom, he bumped into one of those fellows and mentioned that he heard them talking about teaching and that he himself was an umemployed teacher. It turns out that the “suit� owned a company that provided teachers for penitentiaries to help inmates finish their primary and secondary schooling. He offered Frank the job in Edmonton:

“I hesitated. He said, ‘Why don’t you try?’ I said okay. Fifteen years later, I retired to Brighton.� Frank, 67, is happily situated between family in both Kingston and Toronto. “I love Brighton. It’s a real town. People are vital, interested and engaged with all sorts of backgrounds. Many may be older, but they are physically active.� Last summer, Frank approached the local Main Street merchants and asked them if they minded him playing guitar and singing on the street, to entertain the shoppers. They thought it

Brighton – Frank Blanchet has an interesting life story, which he has chosen to continue in Brighton. He arrived here three years ago from Edmonton, Alberta after retiring from Corrections Canada where he was a principal of a school within a penitentiary. But let’s back up first: “Before prison - so to speak - I taught in an inner-city school of rough kids in Kingston. One Friday morning, I decided that I was going to hand in my resignation. That day, one of the kids said to me, ‘Sir, why don’t you take us for walk down to the railway yards to talk to the hobos?’ “I said, Sure. (Why not? It was my last day.)� At the hobo camp, the kids woke up Joe. (“You will like him, Sir. He plays harmonica.�) “Joe shakes himself off, lights a smoke, offers me a swig out of his bottle which I refuse and the kids ask him to play a tune. He was really good.� Then another student asked, “Sir, can we take Joe back to the school and show him our room?� It was the first time that they had showed any pride in their school. Frank again figured, Why not? “So we brought back this decrepit guy who combed his hair and asked for a cup of coffee.� For two hours Joe held them in the palm of his hand with stories of the road and rails, and played harmonica like a pro. Within a half hour, Frank had an epiphany: “I said to myself, enthralled with this guy, he is a superlative teacher. I vowed to stay until I was as good as him. From that day on, I looked at my students differently and they looked at me differently.� Providence always seems to step in for Frank at the eleventh hour. Eighteen years later, he was performing at a summer job on a cruise lines ship out of Kingston when the owner of a local radio station offered him a job in radio sales. Looking for Frank Blanchet has had a long, strange, winding road to Brighton, where a change, he accepted. (Providence he regularly entertains shoppers and merchants while playing guitar on intervening again.) Two years later, Main Street. Photo by Erin Stewart

was a lovely idea and after checking with an officer over the local by-law (“So I wouldn’t be yanked by the OPP�), he performed from 2 till 4 on the weekends. He says that it was the sunniest and best gig that he ever had while talking to passer-byes. In his short arrival here he has also served as Vice-President of the Brighton Arts Council and acted in a play -Farce of Nature - at the Brighton Barn Theatre. He started and currently runs a successful Open Mic Nite at the

Legion every first and third Tuesday of the month. Frank sees everything he’s done as being somewhat related: “Teaching is performance acting. The better you entertain, the more you get their attention. A teacher IS the course. No matter what work you do, you bring yourself, your personality, to the job. People, especially kids, respect that.� And we are lucky to have Frank and his unique personality here in Brighton.

Belleville’s Cindy Nelles, Katie Svoboda play huge roles in McMaster women’s rugby title as an all-Canadian this season is her third in as many years, to go with four OUA all-star nods in as many university campaigns.
 The civil engineering student, who has represented Canada on the international stage including a silver medal-winning performance at the 2014 World Cup, has been one of the key pieces of the Marauders’ transformation since taking over the captaincy. 
After guiding her troops to their first-ever OUA title a year ago, she picked up where she left off this fall, scoring a teamleading seven tries in five regular season contests before adding five in three playoff games to help McMaster repeat as conference champion.
 Her versatility makes her an ideal number eight, able to lead her team on both the offensive and defensive ends.
“Cindy has had a tremen- McMaster University’s Cindy Nelles carries the ball in a recent CIS women’s rugby game. She was named the CIS women’s rugby dous career at McMaster but this season she has player of the year. Submitted photo taken her play to a completely new level,” said head coach Shaun Allen. “She has been able to take her experiences with the senior national team and has made huge strides in her ability to do effective work clearing out and in the post-tackle contact area. This improvement has made her a much more complete rugby player, and have complimented her already outstanding ability to carry and tackle.”

Belleville – Some Belleville-bred athletes came up big time for the McMaster Marauders women’s rugby team, as it claimed a Canadian Interuniversity Sport championship in Kingston on the weekend.
 Belleville native Cindy Nelles scored two tries in the championship game, a 27-3 win over the host Queen’s Gaels on Sunday. Earlier in the week, Nelles was named the CIS women’s rugby player of the year.
Another Belleville native, Centennial graduate Katie Svoboda, also had an impressive game, as she scored a try and was named McMaster’s Player of the Game. Svoboda also earned All-Canadian honours for the season.
The performances capped an impressive season for the Marauders.
“It’s absolutely been an incredible journey,” Nelles said in a story published by the CIS. “This team has come so far from when I first came to McMaster and it’s been absolutely amazing to be a part of that journey.”
 Nelles became the first Marauders standout to merit national MVP honours since the sport made its CIS debut back in 1998.
She had already made Marauders history in 2011 when she became the first player from the program to earn CIS rookie-of-the-year honours. Her selection

Perfect Pie Contest baker wins again with $600 pie By Sue Dickens Warkworth – How sweet it is! Four-time winner, which includes champion of the Perfect Pie Contest for two years in a row, Alie Ryken of Castleton, went home this weekend knowing her culinary expertise raised a sweet $600 for the fundraising competition. Last year she won with her raspberry pie. This year the judges all agreed that her mouthwatering – wait for it – maple walnut pie - was a winning culinary creation. The event was the 36th Annual Perfect Pie Contest organized by Warkworth Chapter 279 Order of the Eastern Star. Lisa Meekes baked the next highest selling pie at the auction, a savoury pie entry which raised $200. A special treat this year was the junior apple category in which fiveyear-old Abby Francis entered a pie and raised $40. James Lewington received honourable mention. In the Eastern Star category, which allowed members to participate, Jean Bryan raised $150 with the auctioning off of her pie and Maggie Shillington received honourable mention. Worthy Matron Marina Williamson explained that the proceeds will go to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Auxiliary. There were 120 pies entered this year, the same number as last year. “This was the most successful pie contest we’ve had in terms of fundraising,” said Worthy Matron Williamson. She was excited about the fact that people didn’t rush off after the auction but stayed to socialize. There had been a lineup down the street prior to the doors opening so it was a packed hall. “Our auctioneer Jim Nelson was

A total of 120 pies were judged at the 36th Annual Perfect Pie Contest organized by the Warkworth Chapter 279 Order of the Eastern Star: from left, Earline Armstrong, Marion Hartford, Jean Peters, Cheryl Casselman, Jean Bryan, and Georgia Jacob, 5, Earline’s great granddaughter.

wonderful,” she added. “He’s done this for the past four or five years and is always excellent.” Pat McLellan who has also helped with the contest for years noted,

“The price of $600 for the auction of the most perfect pie was the highest auction bid ever.” She also noted that visitors came from as far away as Saskatchewan as well as Kingston and

Lindsay, Ontario. The winners of the pie contest are: “There was even a lady who came (amount raised and honourable menfrom the Northwest Territories just tion in brackets): fruit ($100) – Marg to be at the pie contest and help cut Newman (Caroline Quinn); apple pies,” she added.

utility’s new private owners begin receiving their share of the profits. “Yes, we are going to lose some, we said that from the beginning,� Rinaldi said, but the financial accountability officer’s report “was very, very focused on the transaction of the day, it did not take into account [what] $4 billion worth of investment in public infrastructure means – 100,000 jobs,� and people paying taxes. He also didn’t factor in the province would be paying less in interest charges by using $5 billion from the sale to reduce its debt. Rinaldi said it wasn’t that long ago that Hydro One “was the worst animal the province had,� with numerous complaints about its service, more than 10,700 last year, according to Ontario’s ombudsman. “Everybody backed away, [they were] scared of the big animal,� he said, but not his government, which decided to take bold action. “We knew this was going to be a hard decision,� he said. “At

the end of the day we’ll have a better run corporation, it will give us money for infrastructure, it will pay down a sizable of the stranded hydro one debt ... [In the] long term we’re actually better off.� The government also came under fire for the $4 million Hydro One’s new CEO will receive in compensation. But that’s “if he meets all the targets,� Rinaldi said. “His salary is just over a million, which is comparable� to what the CEO of a corporation of similar magnitude is paid. The veteran NorthumberlandQuinte West MPP also pointed out electricity rates will still be regulated by the Ontario Energy Board, and that any major decision by Hydro One requires the approval of two-thirds of board members, leaving the province essentially in control with 40 per cent ownership. Hydro One is Ontario’s largest electrical transmission and distribution utility, with approximately $23 billion in assets and 2014 revenues of over $6 billion.

government’s controversial plan to sell off in total 60 per cent of the transmission utility in order to generate an estimated $9 billion. More than half, $5 billion, will be used to pay down Hydro One’s stranded debt; the rest, $4 billion, will go toward new roads, bridges and transit systems. The sale of Hydro One shares to private investors has been heavily criticized by the New Democrats, Progressive Conservatives, numerous municipalities, and most recently, Ontario’s new financial accountability officer, Stephen LeClair. In his first report to the provincial legislature, he warned the province’s net debt would be reduced initially with the sale of 60 per cent of Hydro One but “will eventually be higher than it would have been without the sale.� The debt would increase “as the costs of forgone revenues from Hydro One begin to exceed the initial fiscal benefit,� LeClair wrote. Those revenues currently add up to about $750 million a year, which the province will receive considerably less of when the

Operation Red Nose ready to help people get home safely By Stephen Petrick Belleville – Operation Red Nose Quinte is ready for another season of ferrying holiday revellers home safely. The year’s campaign is being run with the theme, Home Safe Home, as it encourages everyone to be responsible and keep the streets safe. Operation Red Nose is a volunteerdriven service that operates on late November and December nights that are expected to be busy. Those who phone to request the service can have a volunteer meet them and drive them and their car home. The hope is that the service will reduce the chances of drunk driving collisions at a time when there’s greater worry they’ll occur. At a campaign launch event on Thursday, Nov. 5 at the Empire Theatre, Kelly McKinney and Jennifer Tretina were introduced as this year’s honorary co-chairs. Both donned red foam noses that night, as is custom for co-chairs, and both said they were thrilled to take on the role. McKinney is an employee of McDougall Insurance and Tretina works for TD Wealth. Both of them represent businesses that contribute to the community and

both are involved with the Rotary Club of Belleville, a supporter of the operation. “From an insurance background, we want to see people get home safely,” said McKinney, explaining why he supports the operation. He said he’s been a customer in past years. “I’ve been out with friends and have said hey, let’s call Red Nose.” Tretina is also a past customer and was equally thrilled to take on the co-chair role, meaning she’ll be promoting the operation in the days leading up to opening night. “I think it’s a great service,” she said, adding that Red Nose drivers only request a charity donation for the service. This year, 75 per cent of funds will go to the YMCA’s Strong Kids campaign and 25 per cent of funds will go to the Rotary Club’s Camp Trillium campaign. This year Operation Red Nose will operate on the following dates: Nov. 27-28; Dec. 3 to 5; Dec. 10 to 12, Dec. 17 to 19 and Dec. 31. That’s a few less dates than normal. Usually, Operation Red Nose operates on all Thursdays to Saturday periods of December. But the operation won’t be active from Thursday, Dec. 24 to Saturday, Dec. 26, given that those days are the actual holidays.

As usual, volunteers are being recruited to drive cars and answer phones from the volunteer centre at 160 Catharine St. Drivers are generally active picking up customers from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m., but may pick up people earlier if requested to, said Rick Watt, Operation Red Nose Quinte’s chairman. The Operation offers rides through a region that spans from Brighton to Deseronto and north to Madoc. But all rides

must start or end in Belleville or Trenton. Watt said he continues to be pleased with how well the Quinte region embraces Red Nose. Every year, there’s no shortage of willing sponsors to help and volunteers who enjoy each other’s company on drives and while hanging out at the headquarters. Also, the funds raised through donations from customers often exceeds expectations.

Over the past 11 years, Operation Red Nose Quinte has raised a total of about $276,000 for various charities, Watt said, which is way more than he could have ever dreamed. “If we could just give $5,000 that’s a wonderful number,” Watt said. “It’s something that the community has taken hold of. And we have fun.” Oh, and the number to call if you’re looking for a ride this year is 613962-4334.

Drinking water protection issues discussed By Jack Evans After many months of operation, staff involved with the Ontario Drinking Water Source Protection program are discovering a number of “issuesâ€? as reported to a meeting of the committee Wednesday. Most, such as oil tanks located close to drinking water wells, were minor and efforts are under way to correct them. The meeting also drew some comments from chairman Max Christie about Canada’s new cabinet. “That the term climate change is being added to the Minister of Environment is signiďŹ cant and, for us, hopeful,â€? he said. He also reported on a recent meeting of all Ontario chairmen, showing substantial progress across the province. Keith Taylor, project manager, related how some deďŹ nitions and terms are not adequate and need to be changed. He said some of the key problems in the Quinte area are in centre Hastings where oil storage tanks near wells require special plans. But property owners are being fully co-operative, he added. One of the most difďŹ cult issues is simply connecting with landowners the program ofďŹ cials need to talk to. Assessment records seem out of date in some cases, in terms of tracking down names of the current owners. He praised the work of the education and outreach efforts spearheaded by Lucille Fragomeni to prepare residents for necessary changes. Still to be dealt with in the months and years ahead are “new science, new pharmaceuticals, highway and railroad

spill threats and more,� he cautioned. Also, new development in some areas is occurring in a manner so fast and substantial, the data on which the committee bases its activities becomes out of date with projects going ahead without due consideration of water source protection. Some intake pipes in major waterways also face threats from boating activities or spills, he reminded. To help educate all those involved, the Quinte committee spearheaded the idea of signs to indicate areas where source protection mea-

sures are needed. These would trigger alarms by transportation agencies and emergency responders so that ďŹ reďŹ ghters or road crews would know not to apply toxic substances nearby. The sign has been approved by the Ministry of Transportation and installation should start in the near future. Taylor also talked about the need to work closely with municipalities on any changes to municipal zoning or planning bylaws. Hastings County, as it develops a new ofďŹ cial plan, is working closely and co-operatively with

the source protection program and its requirements and goals, he stressed. Fragomeni reviewed the masses of meetings, brochures, booklets and handouts her department has compiled and distributed in recent months, coupled with social media and electronic communications. The material is being well received and read, she said, crediting the co-operation and interest of the local public and arguing that public education is the preferred way to go over litigation.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

An erosion of health care at the wrong time, in the wrong place Dear Editor I live in the beautiful Bay of Quinte area. In our part of Ontario, we have one of the highest demographics of retired people and senior citizens. Despite retirees choosing to move here, we are home to some of the most economically challenged in the province. Geographically we extend from Brighton in the east to the Tyendenaga Mohawk Territory in the West, and from Madoc in the North to Cherry Valley in the south. In concrete terms, it’s an area of

3,645 square km, with a population of 139,650. It was not long ago that each of these communities had access to a full-service hospital. Wait times were reasonable, access to diagnostics was comprehensive, and we could get the care we needed without having to travel upwards of an hour by car to the appropriate care setting. Since the amalgamation of four hospitals, Quinte Health Care Corporation is considered one hospital on four sites. And despite reassurances that the public

would continue to have access to comprehensive care in their own communities, this simply has not happened. There has been a systematic and insidious erosion of services from Bancroft, Picton and Trenton ever since amalgamation happened. Let me give you an example. I am registered nurse who works in long-term care. I recently spoke with a caregiver who was on a tour of the facility I work in. She was describing having taken her loved one to “that band-aid

station Trenton Hospital.â€? Her comment was not meant to denigrate or complain about the service they had received; rather, her point was that the hospital could “only do so much with what they had,â€? and the patient ended up travelling to a larger center much farther from her home in order to receive the appropriate level of care. This scenario is all too familiar in our communities. In the last round of budget cuts, RNs were laid off in huge numbers. The result? The same number of patients, but fewer people to provide the care. And here is the really scary bit about that. For every patient you add to an RN’s workload, the risk of patient mortality rises by seven per cent. Cutting an additional $11.5 million from the Quinte Health Care Corp. budget means a disastrous impact on patient health outcomes. I have always believed that if you have time to talk about a problem, you have time to think of a solution. To that end I have a number of suggestions for the Premier, the Health Minister and the SE LHIN on how to build, in their words, “the right care by the right provider in the right setting.â€? They are as follows: Implement a fully supported, ďŹ scally responsible home-care sector. Immediately increase the number of long-term care beds in the Quinte area. Provide equal access to geographically appropriate care that is comprehensive. This means keeping full services at the Trenton, Picton and Bancroft sites. Create specialty care centers in the locations where users live. In a community full of seniors and retirees, cataract surgeries, prosthetic joints, and acute and chronic disease treatment should be readily available. Return all privatized services immediately to the public sector. Our hospitals were once hubs of our communities. Rather than “band-aid stations,â€? they should be cathedrals of health for the citizens of the Quinte region. Jackie Dales, RN, BSc.N. Co-ordinator, Local 31 Ontario Nurses’ Association

strange instrument was actually a system made up of organ pipes related to a clock’s mechanism. The instrument was set to play by itself. It resembled a chamber organ (pipe organ without a pedalboard), but the keyboard was replaced with a roll. It is interesting to note that Mozart’s organ work was not written to be played by a person, but by a mechanism.

Mozart Some of the works were originally once played the organ at Saint Thomas’ composed for an automaton organ. This Lutheran Church in Leipzig, which

was Johann Sebastian Bach’s church. Bach’s former student, Doles, who was the cantor (mostly equivalent to being a director of music today) of the church, heard Mozart play and it is said that he believed he had found his master’s genius at work in the young organist. The organ of Saint Thomas’ Anglican Church is one of the finest pipe organs of the area. The instrument was built by Gabriel Kney in 1977, to replace the large Casavant organ that had been de-

stroyed with the church by fire in 1975. The instrument of 19 ranks (about 1,000 pipes) has 14 stops and its action is entirely mechanical. The husband and wife duo enjoys the challenge of sharing the bench. “The organ is an instrument that is normally designed to be played by one person only. Because of its dimensions, it can be a challenge for two organists to play together. We have to be very cautious not to get in each other’s way!”

says Matthieu. “A four hands program involves many, many hours of daily practice. We need to practise our parts individually, and together. We sometimes had to adjust the scores as well. We had fun preparing this program, we love working together,” adds Francine. A live projection on a screen will allow the audience to see the organists performing. The recital will start at 4:30 PM. A reception will follow.

You are invited to attend a TransCanada Open House for the proposed Eastern Mainline Project. TransCanada is proposing to construct a new natural gas transmission pipeline in Ontario between the City of Markham and the Township of Edwardsburgh/Cardinal. The proposed pipeline will be constructed in four sections and will be 36 inches in diameter primarily following the existing route where TransCanada currently operates two natural gas pipelines. TransCanada recently announced that new commitments with natural gas shippers have resulted in additional pipeline requirements in the City of Quinte West and the Townships of Elizabethtown-Kitley, Augusta and Edwardsburgh/Cardinal. Open Houses in Oshawa and Clarington will provide opportunities to share project updates including routing, environmental and engineering studies, and ongoing engagement. TransCanada continues to engage with First Nation and Métis communities and organizations, municipalities, area residents, community organizations and interested parties throughout the development of this proposed project. TransCanada experts will be present to answer questions.

We, as a consumer-driven nation, are responding to advertising and begin “celebrating” the season earlier each year. There

are some precautions to take in order to make this extended festival as safe as possible. HOH Tribute: We, as a nation, and in community with many other countries around the world, have just held our Remembrance Day Ceremonies. There is an initiative to plant trees along the route known as Highway of Heroes and fittingly the administrative body is called Highway of Heroes Tribute. Partners include the Ministry of Transportation, Forests Ontario, Maple Leaves Forever and Landscape Ontario. The intent is to plant 117,000 trees between CFB Trenton and the Coroner’s Office in Toronto, representing those who have died in our country’s service. (The overall provincial goal of reforesting transportation corridors is much larger in scope- some 50 million trees in the ground by 2025.) There is plenty of opportunity for everyone, individuals, organisations and businesses, to join this tribute. Check out this website to learn more: <www.hohtribute.ca>. I am very pleased to say that the

first tree planted at CFB Trenton, the starting point of the Highway of Heroes corridor, is a Flame Maple from our nursery. Just so you know, Gentle Readers, I asked my fellow staff members if this wasn’t a bit much; after all, when is enough enough? Every one of them said, “Never!” To everyone who has worn our country’s uniforms and stood ready to answer the call, thank you. Green Safety: Christmas will soon be here according to the advertisements and the shops are already stocking up for the secular attachment to this holy day. This is all well and good but the two “events” are no longer connected except in timing. Our store, along with most of those in our industry, enjoys the Christmas season and frankly, it is a very important part of our fiscal year. We seem to be decorating our homes earlier each year and there is one important consideration that I want to bring to your attention. Traditional greens, like boughs, wreaths, roping, are now available and sales are starting to pick

up. What is important to remember is that these dead bits of trees and vines are drying out very quickly and, if brought into an indoor environment now, will not last the season. As well as being less than pleasing to look at they will become a serious fire hazard. If you decide to “trim” the house now, please plan on replacing your indoor greens around mid-December. If you’re worried about availabilities at that later date, you can purchase extra bits now and store them in cool dry spot out of the wind and sun. A garden shed would be a good location. Canada does not produce statistics, to my knowledge, about Christmas tree fires but the U.S. does. Christmas tree fires are not common given the number of trees sold. Then again, “normal” house fires are not that common given the number of houses. In the U.S., between 20072011, there were 230 home fires directly related to Christmas trees with six deaths and 22 serious injuries. A chilling statistic is that in a normal fire the death rate is one per 142 house fires but when a Christ-

mas tree is involved the ratio is 1:40 according to an insurance company. Thirty-two per cent were started by electrical irregularities and 17 per cent (think candles) were by heat sources too close to a fresh fuel supply. Yep, it is a bit of a downer but best to keep this in the back of your mind. By the way, most of those fires occur after Christmas Day when we tend to relax a bit.

Purdy portrait on screen in Picton, Dec. 12 for two local organizations; The Al Purdy A-Frame Association – raising funds to support the upkeep of the famous A-Frame cottage and the writers-in-residence who come to work there and Festival Players – raising funds to support its world premiere production of A Splinter in the Heart, Al Purdy’s only novel, adapted for the stage by playwright Dave Carley. In the mid 1950s, when Al and his wife Eurithe bought the plot of land on the south shore of Roblin Lake in Prince Edward County, Al was just beginning to find his voice as a poet. The space played host to a who’s who of Canadian Literature, Al holding court and hosting the likes of Margaret Atwood, Michael Ondaatje, George Bowering, Margaret Laurence, Earle Birney and more. The A-Frame, which had fallen into disrepair over the years, was purchased and refurbished by a Canadawide initiative to maintain this legendary literary space. In 2014, after a great deal of structural work had been done

on the property by numerous volunteer groups, the cottage was ready to receive its first batch of poets-in-residence. These residencies allow writers time and a space to write, to focus on their work. Writers are provided travel funds, a writing stipend, and a cozy and storied retreat. Festival Players, celebrating its 10th anniversary season in 2016, has been bringing highcaliber professional theatre to the region since its inception. Artists from across the country have joined the company to perform, design, compose, and create for the appreciative resident and visiting audiences. In the 10th season, the company is focused on stories by, for, and about Prince Edward County. One of the pieces in the season will be a stage adaptation of Purdy’s only novel, A Splinter in the Heart. Dave Carley, a prolific and accomplished playwright whose deep respect for his subject is clear in his work, has tackled the translation from page to stage with aplomb.

Splinter is set in 1918 in Trenton, Ontario. WWI is coming to an end but the British Chemical Plant in town is still in full swing, producing half of the TNT for the allied war effort. Patrick, the young protagonist, is struggling with looming adulthood and with his place in the world. On Thanksgiving Day the British Chemical goes up in flames and flattens the town in a nearly Halifax-sized explosion. Life for the town, and for Patrick, is never the same. Workshopped in 2015, Splinter will be Festival Players’ mainstage production in 2016, the jewel in the crown

as it celebrates a great story, a great story-teller and a little known piece of this country’s history. On Dec. 12, the afternoon begins at 1:30 when guests are invited to grab a drink or a snack, browse the Purdyana, rub elbows with some lovely folks, get a copy of the AFrame Anthology or tickets to the premiere of Splinter in 2016, browse some interesting and rarely seen bits of Purdyana. Filmmaker Brian Johnson will host a Q & A following the screening. Advance tickets are $20 ($15 for students) and are available

at Books & Company, 289 Main St, Picton or online at www.festivalplayers.ca.

Al Purdy. An icon. Looming tall, almost always with mad, fly-away hair, a cigar in his mouth, a drink in his hand, pounding away at his typewriter or lounging by the lake. What a character. And what a writer. Filmmaker Brian Johnson has crafted a moving and complex portrait of the artist in his documentary film “Al Purdy Was Here” to be screened at the Regent Theatre in Picton in advance of the film’s full release next year. On Dec. 12 at 1:30 p.m. Purdy fans and aficionados are invited to come together to raise some funds and spend a most-excellent afternoon bringing this Canadian icon to life. The film was a hit at TIFF in the fall and features an outstanding array of Canadian icons, both literary and musical: Leonard Cohen, Bruce Cockburn, Gord Downie, Gordon Pinsent, Margaret Atwood, Michael Ondaatje, Sarah Harmer, Tanya Tagaq and Joseph Boyden to name a few. The screening is a fundraiser

TRAVEL

Following the Flight of the Butterflies to Southern Texas

By John M. Smith Did you know that our very own Prince Edward Point National Wildlife Area, southeast of Picton, is not only an important spot for birders but that it’s also a designated Canadian Reserve for Monarch butterflies? There could be millions of butterflies gathering here before heading south on their annual migration. Because of their size and vulnerability, butterflies must wait for almost perfect conditions for their travels, with proper temperatures, appropriate cloud cover, and a gentle northwest wind. Then they’re off to their winter home! I previously wrote a destination piece about the Rio Grande Valley of southern Texas being a great destination for the avid birdwatcher. Well, it’s also on the migration route of many of these butterflies, too, and therefore many butterfly aficionados head south to experience the annual migration of butterflies from Canada. Most of these migratory creatures end up in Mexico, but since the Rio Grande Valley of Texas is located so close to the border, this area is also a great place to experience this extraordinary and fascinating event. Indeed, there’s a “Texas Butterfly Festival” held there in late October or in early November each year, in this eco-wonderland that’s often referred to as “The Texas Tropics”, and many species of butterflies actually decide to stay in this area for the winter season, just as do many human “Winter Texans”, too.

More than 200 species of butterflies have been spotted at the National Butterfly Centre.

When I visited this valley, I checked out its National Butterfly Centre in Mission, Texas. After all, this 100-acre native plant botanical garden and wildlife preserve has been established by the North American Butterfly Association to advance their “mission of education and conservation”. It’s a great place to see a lot of butterflies, particularly on a warm, sunny day, and more than 200 species have been found here. Since it’s a wild butterfly sanctuary, no netting or capturing is allowed. A sign states “WE LIKE OUR CREATURES WILD AND FREE”. However, I was able to wander about the grounds and take photos of the various butterflies, and I learned that I could even COACH & TOURS attract them to my own yard here in Canada, in season, via butterfly food (including homeEXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO made butterfly nectar and over-ripe EXCELLENCE fruit) and the plantVaughan Mills, Samko Miko Toys & IKEA - Saturday, November 21/15 ing of milkweed.

A unique feature here is that each garden will have a special plant that a particular species of butterfly likes, so that a certain species is attracted to a particular area of the property. That species of butterfly will then often make this area their ‘home base’. There are, of course, other area locations for the viewing of butterflies in Texas’ Rio Grande Valley, and some of the best of these are the Edinburg Scenic Wetlands, Bentsen-Rio Grande Valley State Park, Estero Llano Grande State Park, Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge, and the Santa Ana National Wildlife Refuge. I also discovered that this area that’s so popular with birders also has a lot of businesses that confirmed for me that the Rio Grande Valley was a butterfly destination, too. For example, in the nearby city of McAllen, Texas, I found the “Butterfly Kisses Learning Centre”, A queen butterfly. “Butterfly Wireless”, “Butterfly Cleaning”, and the “Butterfly Lingerie Boutique”. While visiting southern Texas, you might also like to check out some of the varied dining options that you’ll find. For example, I visited an authentic Brazilian Steakhouse in McAllen, the “Rodizio Grill”, where a parade of gauchos holding long skewers of meat that had been grilled over an open fire came to our table and kept slicing slabs onto our plates. I also tried some Tex-Mex specialties at “Della’s Tamales”, where freshly steamed tamales, from sweet to spicy, are offered all day long. I’d also recommend sampling such local specialties as mesquite muffins, prickly pear lemonade, and McAllen margaritas (a mixture of frozen pink lemonade and tequila). Yes, I discovered that there was more in the area than just the awesome birds and butterflies! For More Information: www.nationalbutterflycenter.org; www.mcallencvb.com A variety of butterfly species are found at the National Butterfly Centre.

Chris Malette Some of you may have heard it. I know I just about got whiplash while getting ready to turn in for the night when I heard Daryl Kramp utter that nasty rebuke on camera on the CTV National News last week. Reporters: “Mr. Kramp, a moment??” Kramp, brushing past, waving his arm: “I have no respect for the media and I am out of here!” What, what, what??? Sure the former Conservative MP lost a close race many expected him to take in a cakewalk, but to hear Kramp’s angry response on the way of the Conservatives’ final caucus meeting last week was jarring, to say the least. Disgusting and disrespectful for many, too, and not all of us in the media, either. Kramp, the burly, friendly ex-cop, ball-playin’ good fella from Madoc, was never more convincing and likeable than when he was humble. You always believed he meant it when he said he took it as a “deep honour” and a “privilege” to be MP. “It has been an unbelievable privilege to serve this riding.” But, with one dismissive sweep of his arm in blowing past reporters, Kramp dealt that honourable public servant image an indelible stain. It came off as one arrogant backhand to the people who, most of whom earning well under half of an MP’s salary, stand for hours outside committee rooms and chambers, only needing a comment, a quote or an observation from someone who has served so many years for the governing party. Was it all an act, the humble thing? Was that a display of how Kramp really felt about all of us when it appeared he had little to nothing to lose, so, ‘what the hell, let `er rip?’ Dunno. I do know it was ugly. Oh, I suppose ole Krampy will say he meant that jab only in terms of the national media – the having “no respect” bit. I haven’t called him to ask what in

Angry old Conservative man rears head again

hell he was thinking, although I would always know he’d take my call on most any subject over the years. We have a pretty good relationship and I’ve trusted Kramp over the years to give me the straight goods, even discussing some things on background-only terms. But, I couldn’t bring myself to pick up the phone and ask him why he had to make his denouement in public life something smeared with such a nasty, uncharacteristic walk-off. I’m just that pissed off at the big fella, frankly. We might yet go for a beer and talk it over. But, I don’t know. It’s really left that much of a foul taste in so many local journalists’ mouths, that walkoff kiss-my-arse moment of his. I imagine some local journos could probably get a few minutes of Humble Krampy on tape if they wanted to. Mostly I don’t know too many who would or should care to after that episode. Kramp could say he’s comfortable with the local media, has rarely been done wrong by the local press, has a good and

respectful working relationship with most all of the local media types, but that won’t wash, either. See, we’re all the same tribe. There’s little to no distinction – outside of our pay cheques - between CTV’s Robert Fife, The Star’s Chantal Hebert or those of us toiling for Metroland’s weeklies in the region, The Intelligencer, the local radio reporters – the lot. We’re all “the media,” Krampy and when you go on national TV and say something like “I have no respect for the media... I’m out of here” well, bud, that kind of thing just hits us all where we live, you know? This isn’t to say a lot of people in front of their sets last week didn’t mumble words to the effect of “Right on. Give the scum what they deserve...” that sort of thing. But, I think most any locals who saw it – even outside the media – were more than a little stunned to see someone who prided himself on class, friendliness, openness and honesty brush past reporters in such a rude,

crude fashion. Was he feeling hurt? Maybe. I mean, the big fella just spent a considerable amount of time in the caucus room with the remainders of his party, likely cursing this, that or the other thing that brought them down. He had to listen to the leader he followed for 10 years offer a frank and probably emotional farewell to many of them before Harper scurried out a back door, not giving anyone a chance to get a question in on him. I guess Kramp could have been angry, peeved and seething over what he just sat through and could likely have been thinking the godless media hordes in Ottawa had something to do with the downfall of his party, the lefty bastards. But, for most all who came to know him, it was out of character when he was MP. It just didn’t fit, you know? It’s the last we’re likely to see of ole Krampy on the national stage and it certainly wasn’t a joyous, walk-off bat flip a la José Bautista. No, this was a verbal middle digit to the media, who sometimes get under the

flyers. coupons. deals. savings tips.

skin of politicians – which is the way it’s supposed to work, really – and who don’t always ask the softball questions the friendly hometown press types will lob your way. Unfortunately, for many, Kramp’s gone and joined the Angry Old Man Conservative Club with Earl Cowan as camp commandant. You remember Earl. He’s the infamous spittle-spraying, media-hating old Conservative supporter who called reporters “lying pieces of sh**!” But, it didn’t have to be that way.

In the weeks and months after watching many a long political career spool out, I recall sitting down with local politicians of all levels and doing the reflective look-back piece. They’re usually quite insightful and often fun in reminiscing about the highs and lows of the career. But, how does one do that after such a loutish outburst that was seen by coast to coast and lastingly tagged on our local MP of the last decade? Sorry, Daryl. I always thought you were made of finer leather.

It’s 2015. Does Representation Matter?

“It’s important to be here before you today to present to Canada a cabinet that looks like Canada.â€? – Justin Trudeau, speaking to reporters at the swearing-in ceremony What does Canada look like? Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s genderequal cabinet highlights the importance of diversity in making Canada strong.  While much of the at-

tention has centred on gender, this cabinet also includes MPs from other diverse backgrounds. The cabinet includes two Indigenous ministers, a refugee from Afghanistan, two with disabilities, and five ministers of South Asian descent. Why does this matter? The short answer – inclusion. The 2011 National Household Survey found that more than 200 ethnic origins were count-

ed in Canada. This diversity permeates our daily life, whether you are taking public transit to work, shopping at grocery stores, or going out to restaurants. Seeing people who look like you in your every day is one thing, but it is a very different experience to see these individuals in position of power. Benedict Anderson argues that the nation is an imagined political community. As such, individuals in one part of the country may never know their fellow citizens in another part of the country but each has an image of each other. By reading the newspaper, watching current affairs on television, and seeing elected officials, citizens of a country start seeing themselves as members of a broader national community. We don’t have to look further than the United States to see the importance of symbolism. President Obama’s election made waves not simply for his political platform, but for the historical symbol he became as the country’s first black president.  Beyond introducing diverse perspectives into the political decisionmaking process, representation matters because it is empowering.  This fact is often discounted or neglected in debates about representation. Around the world, people are taking notice of Trudeau’s cabinet appointments. That fact alone suggests that it’s not enough to say “it’s 2015.â€?  The fact that Trudeau was asked that question demands attention and, quite frankly, more

dialogue. Let us join in the conversation, but change our point of entry. Instead of “why women?â€? a better question is “why these women?â€?  And, equally importantly, “why these men?â€?  When we talk about our civil servants in terms of what they can bring to the table, we will undoubtedly progress as a country. That said, representation can be an empty gesture. Many have questioned Trudeau’s appointment of a white woman, Carolyn Bennett, to head the Department of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada. It might seem like an argument for representation means that an Indigenous person should be in Bennett’s place. After all, Trudeau had an unprecedented number of capable Indigenous MP to choose from. But appointing an Indigenous MP just for the sake of having an Indigenous face heading the department isn’t representation, it’s tokenism. As a non-Indigenous person, Bennett can offer something that an Indigenous MP could not: a redefinition of the nation to nation relationship between Indigenous Peoples and the Canadian government.  She also comes to the position armed with her record as a longtime critic of Aboriginal Affairs. While her actions will speak louder than words, she has given us a preview of what is to come, referring to herself as the “minister of reconciliationâ€? and carrying sweetgrass and an eaglefeather to her swearing-in. Instead of tokens, Indigenous Peoples were represented in more meaning-

ful ways through the appointment of two qualified and experienced Indigenous MPs to other ministries. Jody Wilson-Raybould (Kwakwaka’wakw), a former Crown counsel and Indigenous leader, has been named Canada’s minister of justice and Hunter Tootoo (Inuk), a former legislator from Nunavut is the new minister of fisheries and the Canadian Coast Guard). These appointments build a foundation of authenticity that makes the inclusion of Indigenous traditions in the swearingin ceremony far more genuine and respectful. Even something as small as a name change – from Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development to Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada – has huge symbolic importance. Representation matters. We are not talking about seeing diversity in photos in glossy government brochures. We are talking about seeing diversity in our elected officials and people in positions of authority. Such actions spark the imagination and empower the minds of ordinary Canadians to be extraordinary. It’s not just about creating a government that looks like Canada; it’s about creating a Canada that feels like home for people of all backgrounds. Our hope is that future generations of leaders will be asked very different questions than the ones that are asked today.
