Santa Claus arrives in the snow By Kate Everson

Events - Consecon - It was snowing lightly for the 33rd annual Consecon Santa Claus parade on Sunday, November 16. It was perfect for Santa and all his horses. There were horses everywhere, from small decorated ponies to a huge Clydesdale with two riders. Two big white horses pulled a wagon. Beautiful, gleaming black horses marched smartly with Tanglewood Farm riders. And the bands played on, keeping everyone in step to the 413 Wing Pipes and Drums, the Brighton Legion Highlanders, the Napanee and District Caledonia pipe band and Prince Edward County Pipes and Drums. Sherri Bergman rode in style on a comfortable float for the Consecon and Area Ratepayers. Karen White was all decked out in a clown suit with her faithful dog Lucy, following the band. The Grinch was there, of course, daring anyone to mess with Whoville. Children wore bright red toques and mittens. A lady in hot pink passed out bookmarks for the Wellington Recreation Committee, announcing the Who-ville Christmas parade in Wellington on December 6 at 10:30 a.m. Ponies stepped smartly with ribbons in their tails and the Belleville Shriners dodged in and out with their motorbikes. It was a short parade, but mighty fine, in the little community by Wellers Bay. At the United Church a bake and craft sale was held and the library had arts and crafts. Refreshments were available after the parade in the Masonic Hall where Santa himself gave out chocolate. There were crafts for kids and a balloon toy maker. Cascades Pub and Grill held its fourth annual fund raiser for the Wellington Storehouse food bank. Please see photos on page 10

All-girls hockey team scores with Krispy Kremes By Kate Everson

Sports - Quinte West - Dozens of Krispy Kreme doughnuts were sold at Smylie’s Your Independent Grocer on Saturday by members of the Cold Creek Comets. “We are helping fund raise for the team,� said Corey McArthur, 12, from Trenton. She was with Lara Hummel, 10, from Brighton. “It’s an all-girls team,� explained team trainer Jay McArthur. The Peewee C rep hockey team plays three times a week, in Brighton, Peterborough, Keene, and as far as Bancroft. They practise at the Trenton, Brighton and Frankford arenas. “This is my first year playing with this team,� Corey said. This is her eighth season playing hockey and is right defence. Lara Hummel is in her fourth season and is left wing. Corey said she played with the Trenton Golden Hawks for seven years. “I loved it,� she said. Lara said she prefers playing on an all-girls team. She was formerly with the

Brighton Braves. “Boys push the girls out,� she noted. Her mom and volunteer Angela Hummel added that the girls bond better in an allgirls team. “It’s more a social girl thing,� she said. “They also make new friends.� Angela also has a son in hockey and spends a lot of time on the road. “But it’s worth it!� piped up her daughter. Jay McArthur said he got into working with the kids on the team from his experience in playing hockey for years. He used to play with 437 Squadron and still plays pick-up hockey when he gets the chance. The Cold Creek Comets has 15 players, all girls in the range of 10 to 13 years old. Several were out in Brighton and Belleville selling Krispy Kreme doughnuts on the same day. “It helps pay for tournaments, ice time, practices, referees and uniforms,� Jay McArthur said. “It’s all for the team.� Manager of the team is Karen Voth and coaches are Steve Hunter and Rodney Payne.

Habitat for Humanity raises walls on Sidney Street home By Kate Everson

News - Trenton - The family of a Habitat for Humanity home to be completed this spring at 211 Sidney Street, Trenton, helped raise one of the walls on November 12. “It’s definitely an upgrade,� said Dan Coughlin, who will be moving his family from a crowded two-bedroom apartment in Bayside. The new home will have three bedrooms. He and his wife Melanie have three children, Jacqueline, 14, Meghan, seven, and Gwen, four and a half. “I’m excited about the new house,� said Jacqueline. Johanne Hodgson from the Family Selection Committee said the family will have support for a year or two. “It’s a big transition, going from an apartment to a house,� she said. Before becoming homeowners, partner families must put in 500 hours of “sweat equity� at the build site or in the ReStore. Mortgages are zero down-payment, zero interest and geared toward what the family can afford. Chair Bob Clute said this will be a real quality home and commended the second-year Loyalist College Construction

and Renovation students who are involved with the Habitat build for the first time. They will see the project to the end, some time in the spring, a total of 28 weeks. Ann Drennan, dean of Applied Sciences, Skills and Technology, said it is a win-win situation for the students. “I hope this will be a long and enjoyable partnership,� she said. “Our students get hands-on work experience and give back to the community as well.� Larry Burnett, professor at Loyalist College, said the students are doing incredibly well. “I’m proud of them,� he said. The students, 13 guys, are involved in every aspect of the build, including framing walls, building floors, installing a second floor, insulation, dry wall, trim, building trusses, roof and sheeting. The only things they don’t do are the specialized fields like concrete foundation, electrical, plumbing and roofing. “They study and know the whole building process,� Burnett explained. “But some fields are very specialized.� Tom Falcao, co-ordinator of the program, added that a lot of the students have already been offered

jobs, when they finish school in the spring. “They have quite a high skill level,� he said. Executive director Len Kennedy thanked everyone for their support, including the city which donated the land. Mayor-elect Jim Harrison called it “a fantastic project� and noted that a lot of people will benefit. Kennedy added that Habitat has already built three homes in Quinte West and have a good track record. This is the 16th build for Habitat as well as the 17th since it will be a semi-detached home for two families. The second family has yet to be chosen. Students will be working on site three days a week and there is room for volunteers to help out on Monday and Friday, as Habitat executive director Len Kennedy introduces the Coughlin family Melanie, Jacqueline, Dan, Meghan and Gwen with well as some Saturdays. “We want to get the community Mayor-elect Jim Harrison. involved,� he said. He noted that Trenton High School students will build some garden sheds for the families once the construction is complete. Anyone wishing to volunteer or donate time or materials can contact Habitat for Humanity Prince Edward-Hastings at 613-969-1415 or visit the web site at <habitatpeh.org>.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Canadian taxpayers paying $5 million for Harper’s pot propaganda

Dear Editor: In the latest taxpayer-funded mailout to all households in his Hastings-Prince Edward riding, our illustrious member of Parliament asks us if we are feeling safer these days. Daryl Kramp wants our feedback, postage-free (read: We are all paying for this with our taxes), sent back to him in Ottawa. Within that same mailout we are told exactly how the Harper Government has made us safer. So, naturally, our answers should be, “Yes. I feel safer. Thank God for Mr. Harper.” This is your classic political powerat-any-cost mentality in action. First you scare them … Justin Trudeau wants your kid to be a drug addict. Then you tell them how you are going to save them … we are building more jail cells. Canadians are still falling

for it. With our own tax dollars we are being fed lies and misinformation on a daily basis. With our own money the lies are being repeated, and repeated, and repeated until they shape reality for those naive acolytes who form the permanent “Conservative base.” The latest example of the misuse of our tax dollars in this way are the anti-marijuana ads purported to be from Health Canada. Harper will not tell us what we are paying to run them on television and the Internet but all estimates are at least $5 million. Harper’s 30-second video ends with: “A message from the Government of Canada.” In case you have not noticed, an American-style 2015 election campaign has started and Conservatives are using our tax dollars for their own deceptive campaigning right now. Peterborough’s recently convicted MP Dean Del Mastro is just a big chip off the old unethical block.

own brain. With sinister music playing in the background those glass braintubes get dirtier as the announcer tells us of all of the damage marijuana does to a teen’s brain. “Loss of memory. Learning problems. Decreased IQ.” Marijuana is 300 to 400 per cent stronger than your 1960’s hippie’s pot! Despite the fact this is simply untrue, think of it this way: humans soon figure out that you had better not drink the same volume of 40 per cent whiskey as you do four per cent beer or you will be very sorry in the morning. You may even be dead come morning because alcohol is a poison with no medical value. Despite the facts no one has ever died from using cannabis and that it offers proven medical value Harper has to make it look evil because Justin Trudeau and Elizabeth May would legalize, regulate and tax it. Meanwhile, down south of the border last week, while ultra-conservative Republicans were winning more elections, the American people voted to legalize cannabis in Oregon, Alaska and Washington D.C. Add them to Washington state and Colorado, which have been reaping the benefits of increased tourism and taxation since legalizing over a year ago, while simultaneously watching drug dealers exit their states, and it is plain to see the

people know the truth about this plant which any good evangelical Christian like Harper should thank his God for putting on our planet. Instead Harper chooses to keep telling the old American lies to Canadians. Now we have the absurdity of British Columbia, renowned worldwide for its high quality BC Bud, sandwiched between Alaska and Washington state where marijuana is now legal. Here in Canada Harper has his RCMP throwing Canadians in jail, seizing their homes and other assets, destroying their families and in many cases shooting the family dog when they kick in the front door of a suspected grow op at 3 a.m., consequently generating huge costs for our justice system. The truth is exactly the opposite of what Harper and Kramp keep telling us. They actually support organized crime. If you do not believe me here is a quote from Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán Loera the Mexican billionaire drug cartel kingpin whose empire is still run by his offspring and friends while he sits in a Mexican prison. “Whoever came up with this War On Drugs, I would like to kiss him on the lips and shake his hand and buy him dinner with caviar and champagne. The War On Drugs is the greatest thing that ever happened to me

and all my closest friends. I couldn’t have gotten so stinking rich without George Bush, G. Bush Jr., Ronald Reagan, even El Presidente Obama; none of them have the cajones to stand up to all the big money that wants to keep this stuff illegal. From the bottom of my heart I want to say gracias amigos, I owe my whole empire to you.” El Chapo had been ranked by Forbes as the tenth richest man in Mexico. Since 2006 over 53,000 Mexicans have been killed as the cartels continue to fight for market share to this day. TV has been called “The Opiate of the Masses.” Canadians should turn off their mind-numbing televisions and turn on their own intellects. Do some research. Search for the truth on the issues facing us all. Start by googling US Patent No. 6,630,507 B1 dated October 7, 2003, which proves the United States government has legally locked in patent rights to the active ingredients in cannabis. I personally gave a hard copy of these patent papers to Mr. Kramp but it has done no good. He still votes exactly as Harper tells him to no matter what evidence he has available. So do I feel safer Daryl? No. But hey, thanks for asking. Alan Coxwell Stirling

Paying for the green energy conspiracy Dear Editor, The Liberal provincial government, originally under Dalton McGuinty and then under Kathleen Wynne, have intentionally doubled the energy costs for Ontario citizens. In what could be described as a criminal initiative, the Grits enacted the Green Energy Act, forcing taxpayers to subsidize wind turbines and solar activities, knowing full well it couldn’t possibly provide the needed power generation to keep costs reasonable. Much of the reason the government has been able to escape with relatively little

condemnation for the hoax is that most of the mainstream media and their subordinates have simply looked the other way. The unions of this province also deserve a lot of credit for high energy costs for the consumer by helping get the Liberals re-elected come hell or high water despite a string of scandals that cost the taxpayers billions. But that was okay with the unions as long as their favourite party remained in charge to protect their financial power and big pensions. For the most part the media did not hold the Liberal government accountable, many of them agreeing that green energy is a wonderful addition and Best Buy CORRECTION NOTICE taxpayers should be willing NEWSPAPER RETRACTION FOR THE BEST BUY NOVEMBER to shoulder the burden.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our valued customers. highest hydro costs of any

jurisdiction in North America. Whether you’re on the right or the left, this green strategy was unconscionably wrong. Experts have repeatedly warned the public exactly why it was wrong from the outset only to have it fall on deaf ears. Now your Hydro bills include a new charge called “global adjustment” which compensates for the government’s desire to close the coal-fired plants in favour of continuing into longterm contracts with renewable energy companies. The result is “higher than market value costs” for Ontario residents even though energy costs are decreasing in the United States. A recent report issued by the Fraser Institute makes several reasonable recommendations to alleviate Ontario’s energy dilemma They make too much sense for the Liberals to even consider, however. The report seeks a

moratorium on all new renewable energy initiatives, pursuit of regulatory and legislative options to reduce operating renewable capacity, keeping available for restart four of 12 coal-burning units and exploring the option of large-scale imports of power from Hydro Quebec to bridge the interval for nuclear power plant refurbishment and careful scrutiny of nuclear refurbishment investment value. If mayor-elect John Tory wants to do something constructive for Toronto taxpayers and everyone else in Ontario he should be speaking to the Wynne government to do something for the citizens instead of the unions. And maybe MPP Lou Rinaldi, in his new parliamentary assistant capacity, could ask for a green energy review that would make it easier for everybody to pay their Hydro bills. But don’t hold your breath. Rolly Ethier, Campbellford

OPINION

A meeting of the minds

Breakthrough on climate change Editorial - When news got out that U.S. President Barack Obama and China’s President Xi Jinping had reached an agreement on climate change, the American blogosphere lit up with negative comments. “The problem is, Obama probably means it,” wrote Jazz Shaw of the major conservative political blog Hot Air, “while China is almost certainly just yanking the world’s collective chain yet again with a bit of lip service as they seek better trade arrangements.” But Jazz Shaw has got it exactly backwards. It’s the United States that cannot be trusted to keep its commitments, because the American political system is mired in a perpetual civil war and at the moment it is the climate-change deniers who have the upper hand. Whereas the Chinese will probably keep their word, because there are no denialists in China and the government is genuinely terrified of climate change. The Obama-Xi deal is not wonderful, but it is the first step in the right direction that the world’s two biggest emitters of carbon dioxide have taken together. Obama promised that the U.S. will reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to at least 26 per cent below the 2005 level by 2025. Xi promised more vaguely that China’s emission would peak by 2030 or earlier (and, by implication, then start to decline). That looks a bit lopsided, of course, but any deal that takes account of current realities is bound to look like that. China is still a poor country, and it is racing to grow its economy fast enough to preserve political stability. That means it has to generate a lot more energy fast. China is installing a great deal of clean power (around half the world’s new solar energy plants last year, for example), but just to keep the lights on it has to go on building lots of fossil-fuel plants as well—and most of them burn the dirtiest fuel, coal. Official policy is driving the number of new coal-fired plants down, however, which is one reason why Xi thinks he can keep his promise that emissions will stop growing by 2030. Obama, by contrast, presides over an economy that is already very rich. The average American citizen still consumes twice as much energy as the average Chinese, but total U.S. energy consumption stopped rising years ago. Making 26 per cent cuts in

American energy use over the next ten years is not a huge challenge; it requires a reduction of only about 2.6 per cent a year. So the American and Chinese commitments in the new deal, while asymmetrical, are not unequal in terms of the political and economic burdens they impose. The real difference lies in the likelihood that the two sides will stick to the deal over the next 10 to 15 years as they have promised. China probably will. The United States probably won’t. The Chinese regime knows what global warming will do to the country if it is not contained. A study commissioned by the World Bank about a decade ago, but never published (quite likely at China’s insistence), concluded that if the average global temperature rises by 2 degrees C, China will lose about 38 per cent of its food production. As in all predictions of this sort, that number may be wrong by five or even ten percentage points, but that doesn’t really matter. Even a 28 per cent loss of food production would mean semi-permanent famine in China. The regime would not survive that, and much of the growth that has been achieved by great sacrifice in the past three decades would be lost. Beijing takes climate change VERY seriously. Even though the regime must also keep the economic growth going if it wishes to survive, it knows that it must start making real concessions on emissions in order to facilitate a global deal. Xi did not set this target of capping Chinese emissions by 2030 without a great deal of discussion and debate within the regime. Having made the promise, he will keep it. So will his successors, at least so long as the Communist Party goes on ruling China. Whereas Obama will be gone in two years, and cannot bind his successors to keep his promise in any way. Indeed, even in the past six years he has never got any legislation on climate change through the Republican-dominated House of Representatives. Instead, he had to resort to issuing executive orders through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to make even modest improvements like raising the fuel efficiency of U.S.-made cars. Now the House has voted to repeal the EPA’s authority to regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act, which would strip even that power from him. The new Republican majority in the Senate will probably do the same. Obama could veto such a law, but all the Republicans have to do is attach it to the budget and they would set up a confrontation that would shut the U.S. government down again.

By Terry Bush Editorial - While my wife, Mare, and I may have a difference of opinion when it comes to watching or participating in sports, I think she’s finally coming around, slowly but surely. I used to really enjoy cycling but haven’t had much luck getting motivated in recent years because Mare refuses to go. She doesn’t do hills she says because she can’t shift gears. Considering the woman has driven a standard truck and car for going on 30 years, has had a couple of motorcycles and can find her way around a semi-automatic ATV, her lack of knowledge when it comes to a simple thumb shift on a bicycle is quite baffling. She blames it on her Dutch heritage saying, “There are no hills in Holland,” so I guess somehow that must make some sense in some way to somebody. I can only speak for my half of the population, the part that comes from Mars, not Venus so I think her excuses might really be girlspeak for something else. We went downhill skiing in the eastern townships of Quebec on our honeymoon or more accurately I went downhill skiing while she cried and walked down the hill after falling. That was the end of that adventure. We played squash in Campbellford when we were dating. At least I was playing squash. She got upset and told me I was hitting the ball too hard because it kept hitting the back wall. My squash racket died an early death in the dirt floor basement of our old house. Not that she shuns physical activity. She spent years trying to convince me that aerobics was a sport and I’m still not buying it. Same as I don’t listen when told that walking is a sport even if you walk seven or eight klicks a day. Walking is not a sport unless we’re talking about a speed walking competition. For this guy, a sport must involve winners and losers and most folks I know would take being the former over the latter any day. Sports are about competition. So I now find it rather encouraging and perplexing that Mare will occasionally sit down with me to watch part of a Leafs game. Not that I tune in too often. And at our place the Leafs usually don’t make an appearance on the television until the second or third period after Mare starts getting ready for bed. The reason for her newfound hockey enjoyment definitely isn’t George Stroumboulopoulus. Can I get a, “Bring back Ron McLean as host, please.” As much as I’d like to think otherwise,

the real reason Mare will occasionally sit down and watch a period with me really has nothing to do with sports at all. Fall just doesn’t bring hockey into our home, it also brings the cluster flies. Or to put it in Mare’s giddy parlance, “Look, it’s hockey fly.” She watches the Leafs games so she can watch that darn fly bounce around the screen while laughing her guts out. If the fly’s not there, neither is she unless she wants to fall asleep. Now don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a good hockey fly the same as the next guy. And the one who makes his presence known on our set can certainly skate. I, myself, was in awe a couple of times recently. As the Leafs broke out of their own end and headed to centre ice, hockey fly not only kept up the pace but he actually put them offside a couple of times entering the zone ahead of the puck. Funny how the refs missed that one but considering he wasn’t wearing a sweater, I guess we can let that one slide. And the little guy definitely isn’t a one-way player, he backchecked his ass off and a couple of times flew right past the Sabres as the camera panned back to the Leafs zone. He skates so effortlessly, it often looks like he’s standing still and the ice is moving under him a la Paul Coffey. But still, as a hockey fan, I have to say that while I enjoy seeing my wife take an interest in the game, it does get a little distracting at times. On a couple of occasions, I thought the Leafs had scored only to realize that hockey fly must have been pushed into the net. Bummer for me as I usually try to announce the goals before the play-by-play man. That started a few years back when I was getting more than a little frustrated with Bob Cole and his late calls. And despite the fact that I enjoy Mare’s intermittent company during the game, I feel hockey fly has taken advantage of my situation and I am not feeling the love anymore when two or three of his friends join him on the ice. Aside from the fact that the games have become too confusing to watch, I think the whole situation has gotten out of control and the refs aren’t calling it. But still, if I had a choice between watching hockey fly or George Strombo, I think the fly may get the nod. After all, when hockey fly was perched on George’s forehead the other night, my eyes were drawn to him and not George. That should tell the executives at Rogers something about their current host.

ties,” said Mike Lovejoy, manager, Conservation Lands, reporting to the Lower Trent Conservation (LTC) board. Frontier staff were attending some of the conservation lands after closing hours to target unlawful activities. Two offences of engaging in prohibited activity at Proctor Conservation Area in Brighton on October 4 were fined $65 each. An offence of unlawfully starting a fire at Glen Miller Conservation Area on October 12 was fined $180. Permitting an animal to be at large at Proctor Conservation Area on October 30 netted a fine of $95. Engaging in prohibited activity at Proctor Conservation Area on October 30 got a fine of $65. Marilyn Bucholtz, Communications and Outreach Co-ordinator, added that regulations under Section 29 of the Conservation Authorities Act, permit LTC to issue tickets to persons found in contravention of certain rules or prohibited activities on its conservation lands. These activities include, but are not limited to, use after dark, littering, camping, fireworks, use of motorized vehicles, removal of vegetation, and dogs off leash. “The primary reason for LTC to explore options for enforcing the regulations was the increasing incidences of uncontrolled dogs in conservation areas which were putting other users and other pets at risk, frightening some users, and also damaging and disrupting the natural environment,” she said. “Attempts to curtail this activity through softer approaches in the previous two to three years have not resolved the problem. ” In response to the increasing number of incidences of dogs off leash and public complaints, Frontier Security Services was hired for a sixmonth period starting this past April. “The enforcement presence on our conservation lands is starting to have a positive impact and users are becoming more aware of the permitted and prohibited uses,” Bucholtz said. “We will continue the enforcement service on an ongoing basis based on need and the available budget.”

First female president of Kiwanis Club holds her own By Kate Everson

News - Trenton - Louise Sandercock is the first female president of the Trenton Kiwanis Club. “They were just waiting for me,” she says with a smile. The club has not had females in it for over 60 years but now has two, the other being Diane Gaffney. Two other females who joined with Louise in 2012 have since left. “This club took a long time to accept females,” Louise admits. “Kiwanis International has had 50 years of female membership.” Louise was born and raised in Sidney Township and worked in the hospitality industry. She is leasing manager at the Seasons Dufferin Re-

tirement Community in Trenton. “I had the choice to become chair of the fishing tournament next year or be the president,” Louise said. She said it feels good to be president and everyone is welcoming and supportive. She feels the club is a good one to be in because of its involvement with the community. “In my opinion we are the most successful service club in the area,” she says. “We have a lot of fun raising funds for the community.” Their next big fund raiser is the Kiwanis Christmas Dinner and Auction to be held on December 12 at the Trenton Curling Club. Last year they raised $102,000 which all went to the Trenton Salvation Army.

“Our tickets are always sold out,” she said. “We have a lot of support, with donations, live and silent auction and event sponsorship.” The room will take 195 people and is packed for the popular event. Trenton High School contributes every year by having a Christmas raffle with all proceeds going to the Kiwanis Club. Louise adds the club also has the Trenton Kiwanis Walleye World fishing tournament the first weekend in May, and a charity golf classic in the summer and helps sponsor the Home and Leisure Show. Money raised goes to minor sports, bursaries and organizations in the community. “We need more members,” Lou-

ise notes. The club has 27 members and everyone works very hard to support the work they do. “It’s an opportunity to be more involved in the community,” Louise says. “We do good, raise money and have fun. It’s a social atmosphere. We even have some spousal events.” Louise adds that all the local clubs need more members as it is hard to recruit people who are very busy these days. They hope to start young with students at high school getting involved with volunteering. A Key Club at St. Paul Secondary School is one of the programs that helps teach students how to be of service in their own community.

Altercation results in bail hearing responded to a West Front Street address. While the parties to the alleged altercation declined to pursue charges, officers arrested an intoxicated male who was detained in custody pending further investigation. The Stirling resident was then brought to Belleville court for a bail hearing and was remanded

in custody. On the morning of November 12, police responded to a call from a member of the public about a vehicle partially submerged in the Harold quarry on Highway 14. Police immediately attended to discover a vehicle and a human body floating on the surface of the water. Fire and

Emergency Services from StirlingRawdon and Trent Hills responded to perform a water-based recovery of the vehicle and the individual, who was found deceased. The OPP Forensic Unit and provincial coroner were also at the scene and an autopsy was ordered on the 65-yearold woman.

News - Trenton - Diana Beresford-Kroeger will be the keynote speaker at the Trenton Woodlot Conference on November 21 at the Knights of Columbus Hall from 11:05 a.m. to 11:50. “I am a world expert on trees,” Diana says from her home in Merrickville near Ottawa. She will be bringing some rare and unusual seeds to show the visitors. Her background in trees started in Ireland where she was born. “Ogham script is based on trees,” she explained. “Trees are very close to you. They are the beating heart of the world.” Diana was taught the ancient thinking of the Celtic culture and Diana Beresford-Kroeger will be keynote reveres the trees for their place speaker at the Trenton Woodlot Conference. on the planet. “It is very important that Photo: Erika Beresford-Kroeger we look after them,” she says. “Woodlot owners are custodians of the forest. I respect them for that.”

BULL BULLieve IN THE Dream

Meet Your BULLS!

She said trees use carbon dioxide and give off oxygen into the atmosphere. When they are all cut down, we will not be able to live. Diana has travelled all over the world doing research and writing books about trees. Her next documentary will showcase this study in a dramatic film in 2015. She says there are many native trees to this area and along the St. Lawrence River such as shag bark hickory, black walnut, oaks and king nut species. Many of them were cut down by the English who took them home to be made into ships and huge houses. She wants to get forests back in good shape and encourages woodlot owners to use timber selectively. “In Germany this is their 900th year for woodlots,” she said. “In Canada it is only our 25th anniversary.” She notes that many trees have medicinal effects and keep the

atmosphere and oceans healthy. “On the west coast there are cedars with a 54-foot circumference,” she says. “These are being cut down for toilet paper. We are the only country doing this.” She said you can’t take a child to show them ancient trees any more. The boreal forest in the north is the largest great forest in the world, with a major portion in Canada. Diana has an ambitious plan to encourage ordinary people to develop a new relationship with nature, to join together to replant the global forest. Her books include The Sweetness of a Simple Life, The Global Forest, Arboretum Borealis, Arboretum America and A Garden for Life. and her film is called 10 Trees That Can Save the World. Diana Beresford-Kroeger was inducted as a Wings Worldquest fellow in 2010 and named one of Utne Reader’s World Visionaries for 2011.

Landowner upset at treatment by city over expropriated land News - Quinte West - Paul and Dianne Ainley at 404 FrankfordStirling Road in Sidney Ward are upset with city hall. “They took eleven acres of our land,” said Paul. “They haven’t communicated very well. They put a fence around it and took the hay off it. We didn’t even get a chance to get our hay.” He said the whole deal with the city over expropriated land for the Frankford landfill site is “a bunch of B.S.” “They took my land, and we have not been given anything for it,” he

said. “We wanted to grow garlic on it. We asked if we could go ahead and they never answered.” The couple do organic farming and needed the land for income for their retirement. They bought 50 acres of land and moved from the Toronto area to retire here in 2001. Their Esker Ridge Farm grows seasonal vegetables and gourmet garlic and they also make live edge wood products for cutting boards, tables and shelves, called The Fallen Tree Collection. Paul said the city realized back in 2007 there was a problem with a mild leachate coming from the

Quinte Wood Turners Guild

landfill site. The Ainleys were concerned with water in their two wells. “The water is fine so far,” he said. “They put six wells on the land.” He said they tried to deal with the city on the expropriation but felt they were not being treated in a respectful manner. Money for the land was promised to them in 2009. “They did not negotiate with us in good faith,” he said. “It took them five years to expropriate. They never communicated.” The Frankford landfill site is

open only for yard waste now to cover the former dump. “We feel the city took no effort to negotiate with us in an amicable manner,” Paul said. “They lied to us over and over.” He said the land is valued at $3,200 an acre. The city sent them an offer in 2013 of $40,000 but nothing has been settled. They had no choice but to sell, as the Ministry of the Environment requires a separation of property from a landfill site. Mayor Elect Jim Harrison Paul and Dianne Ainley at their Sidney home are upset at the city. said, “Everything has been done Photo: Kate Everson legally.”

News - Quinte West - MPP Lou Rinaldi was guest speaker at the Chamber of Commerce lunch on Friday. “I started the first Chamber of Commerce in Brighton,� Rinaldi noted. He added that he realizes the challenges faced by business. “Energy rates are an issue,� he said. “My house is all electric. I do feel the pain.� He said there will be adjustments in Hydro rates for industry but the costs are not going down. Rinaldi said $200 million is going to municipalities as a no-interest loan to build infrastructure for gas, as well as $30 million to help gas companies put in plants to deliver the gas. “There is a plan in place,� he said. “We are trying to work with the gas companies.� He noted there is a small community in Quinte West that is trying to raise $1 million to get gas delivered. Rinaldi said the province is working with business and the Ontario Chamber of Commerce to set up an Ontario Pension Plan. They have tried unsuccessfully to get the Canada Pension Plan raised to meet current needs.

“It should have been a federal initiative,� he said. “They need to enhance the CPP. It is not enough to live on.� He admitted there will be an impact with small business that will have to share the cost. “It is an investment in the future,� he said. “Our grandkids will have extra money for retirement years to live fairly comfortably.� He noted the plan will not apply to self employment. Businesses that already have pension plans will stay with the status quo. The province has two years to iron out details with the Ontario Chamber of Commerce. “The dialogue continues to see what is an acceptable pension,� he said. Someone noted that the cost to business will be astronomical and warned of job losses. Rinaldi said it will take time to build up the fund and added he is hopeful with the next federal election that they will go that way. “There is the fear it is going to cost jobs,� he said. “There will be short-term pain for long-term gain.� Rinaldi also talked about the continuation of the EODF which is now a permanent fund of $20 million a year to expand new industry or bring new industry in. “It is one of our most successful programs,� he said. The Rural Economic Development fund (RED) is also continuing. “The RED program had gone to sleep with no money,� he said, “but now last year under Jeff Leal it is back in the budget.� He said the downtown revitalization plan is still going strong. He added that a lot of rural funding is still unknown. “There are not a lot of rural members in government,� he noted.

Lower Trent Conservation works to eradicate invasive species By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - “Emerald ash borer (EAB): EAB was first confirmed in this area several years ago on Rice Lake in Northumberland County,” says Marilyn Bucholtz, Communications and Outreach Co-ordinator for Lower Trent Conservation. “We have heard reports that it has spread in areas north of Brighton as well.” A look at the ash trees will be included in an outdoor excursion to the Frink Centre as an option on Friday, November 21, as part of the Trenton Woodlot Conference at the Knights of Columbus Hall. Martin Streit from the Ministry of Natural Resources will give an update on the emerald ash borer. Bucholtz adds that another invasive species, the water soldier, has also been a problem here, particularly on Rice Lake and north of Brighton. “There was a public notice sent out about the water solider public to notify shoreline landowners of the herbicide

control measures are anticipated for 2015 and may involve physical removal of smaller populations and the continued use of Reward. Bucholtz notes that Ontario’s 36 conservation authorities commend the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) for re-introducing the proposed Invasive Species Act which would support the prevention, early detection, rapid response, and eradication of invasive species. ”The proposed Invasive Species Act is an important step in improving Ontario’s response to invasive species,” said Kim Gavine, general manager of Conservation Ontario. Through their watershed stewardship programs, many conservation authorities across the province battle both aquatic and terrestrial invasive species that threaten water quality, choke out important native species, and impact native sport and commercial fisheries, beaches, forests, wetlands, and local recreation and tourism.

Stirling-Rawdon council readies for new term Newly elected Councillor Dean Graff, who will replace Shier, was also in attendance for the meeting. In its regular business, council approved the minutes of recent committee meetings and reviewed completed projects as well as those in progress and in the planning stages. Remedial work is required on the municipality’s salt domes with the Stirling structure requiring new shingles and repairs needed in Spring Brook. Cooney anticipates the reshingling will cost $40,000 to $50,000 and the early replacement is the result, he says, of the wrong shingles being used in 2006. Council also agreed to reduce the speed limit from 80 to 50 kilometres an hour on the first kilometre of St. Mark’s Road and later passed a bylaw to that effect. The lagoon project is currently on schedule and on budget, Councilor

Mullin reported, adding metered water charges are expected to be in place on January 1, 2015. Cooney noted that staff is currently reviewing costs and calculating the charges for water usage. Council also endorsed the upcoming Citizens Police Awareness Forum, scheduled for November 24, from 6 to 9 p.m. where various aspects of policing will be explained. Registration is required and interested residents are asked to call 613-395-0844. Council briefly discussed plans to proceed with its LED street lighting project and also endorsed a resolution made by the Township of McKellar calling on the province “to initiate a moratorium on the implementation of the new OPP billing model until such time as the principles of fair and equitable billing model can be addressed.”

News - Stirling - In its final meeting as the municipality’s governing body, current members of Stirling-Rawdon council reflected on the past four years and bade farewell to the only unseated member, Deputy-mayor Wilfred Shier. Mayor Rodney Cooney and Councillors Bob Mullin, Grant Hagerman and Jeremy Solmes will all be returning when the new council is installed next month and all had kind words for their colleague, Shier, who described his term as deputy-mayor as “an honour.” Along with thanking residents, fellow councillors and staff, Shier praised the efforts of all those who work for the municipality. “I enjoyed working with the staff here,” he noted, adding, “they made me look pretty good some days.” Shier was met by a round of applause from the gallery, which included councillors’ families and supporters, before Mayor Cooney presented flowers to Nancy Shier, Shirley Mullin and Lisa Cooney and acknowledging their support, both past and present. In his address, Cooney also thanked staff for their time and dedication, singling out several individuals for specific contributions. Among them was longtime municipal employee Howard Jeffs who recently announced his intention to leave the position of landfill operator.

control activities this fall,” Bucholtz says. The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) and the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, implemented a project to control the invasive aquatic plant water soldier (Stratiotes aloides) in the Trent River in the fall of 2014. “Comments on the proposal to apply herbicide to the water soldier colonies were favourable,” Bucholtz notes. The original project proposal focused on controlling the downstream extent of the infestation to prevent further spread of this invasive plant. The final treatment area was expanded to include herbicide applications in upstream areas and to approximately double the total area originally proposed for herbicide treatment. The herbicide Reward (active ingredient - diquat) was applied by licensed pesticide applicators to control the infestation in designated areas of Lake Seymour and Crowe Bay. Subsequent

Red Nose Quinte ready for another year

News - Belleville - Operation Red Nose Quinte is getting ready for its 11th season of helping drivers get home safely during the holiday season. A launch event was staged at the Empire Theatre on Wednesday, November 12, where several speakers told stories about how fun and how important the volunteerdriven operation is. Red Nose operates on what are expected to be busy driving nights through the festive season, including New Year’s Eve. Those who call to request the service will see volunteers pick them up and drive them and their car home. It’s intended to prevent drunk driving collisions during a season in which there’s

greater chance they’ll occur. This year Red Nose will be in service starting on the nights of Friday, November 28, and Saturday, November 29. After that, it will operate on the first three Thursday-toSaturday night periods of December (December 4 - 6, 11 - 13, 18 - 20) plus, Saturday, December 27, and Wednesday, December 31. It will serve the broader Quinte area, from as far west as Brighton to as far east as Deseronto, to as far north as Madoc and all of Prince Edward County. However, all rides must either start or end in Belleville or Trenton. To book a ride call 613962-4334. Last year, 266 volunteers and 80 sponsors got behind the operation. Those volun-

1,780 people last year, it in fact did much more. She said by helping others get home safely, the operation makes the roads safer for everyone. “You make my job easier and you do save lives,” she said. Those who wish to volunteer for Operation Red Nose Quinte can attend

teers helped make more than 1,000 trips, totalling about 32,000 kilometres, the audience was told. “But the number we’re most proud of is that 1,780 people were driven home safely,” said David Allan, a Red Nose Quinte committee member, who emceed Wednesday’s event launch. During the event, Kristin Crowe, of TAS Communications, and Rick Kevan, of Rock 107, were introduced as Honorary Red Nose CoChairs for 2014.

Crowe, whose business has a history of supporting Red Nose by providing telecommunications devices for volunteers, said she has taken advantage of the service numerous times in the past. This year, she said, she’s looking forward to helping out. “Eat, drink and enjoy the festivities to the fullest,” she said. “And then hand the reins over to us.” Belleville Police Chief Cory McMullan was invited to speak at the event, too. Belleville Police have supported Red Nose by waiving the fee for volunteers to get criminal reference checks; a mandatory requirement. She said that while Red Nose only claimed to help

By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - Superheroes aren’t just people in capes, who wear underwear over their pants. They can be ordinary people, who stand up to bullies and give other people hope. That was the message delivered by Travis Price, when he visited several Hastings & Prince Edward District School Board schools earlier this week. The anti-bullying motivational speaker visited six high schools from Monday to Wednesday, as the school board marked Bullying Awareness & Prevention Week. Price is famous for starting the pink shirt movement, which has become a symbol in schools for the campaign to stop bullying. In 2007, a Grade 9 student at his Nova Scotia school was bullied when he was subjected to homophobic slurs because he wore a pink shirt to school. That afternoon, Price and his friend purchased 75 pink shirts. The next day, they asked students to wear the pink shirts to school in order to send a message that bullying was unacceptable. During his funny and uplifting presentation to students at Moira Secondary School on Monday he wore a shirt that said “every day is pink day.” He also spoke about being bullied himself as a Grade 7 student and how he overcame that challenge. Essentially, he

was “saved” when another student – an attractive female student he referred to as Ashley – came to his defense, urging the other boys to stop teasing him. Price compared that type of action to the action of a superhero. He specifically compared that type of courage to the work of Batman, who uses his famous “bat symbol” to tell people he’s there to help. When someone uses words or actions to stand up to a bully, they, too, are telling their whole community that things are going to be all right. “When a young man in Gotham sees that symbol, he knows tomorrow’s going to be better. There’s hope,” Price said. “Ashley was my hope,” he continued. “She saved my life.” Price also said that students who feel they’re being bullied should find a positive outlet to deal with their stress; such as music or sports, or video games. It was a fitting message because the Moira presentation included music performances by students both before and after the speech. The ceremony also included a video which showed Moira students following a core message from this year’s anti-bullying campaign, that is to “say one nice thing” to other students. Price concluded his speech by urging students to stick up for each other. “Be somebody’s light of hope,” he said. “Instead of saving a city, try to save some one.”

Snow on the hill means the fun is about to start

Sports - Batawa - Ready or not, winter is coming. Snow fell early in Batawa Sunday night. First it came from the skies and then from machines. A drop in temperatures brought a snow squall through the area and then provided the first opportunity for the cutting-edge snow-making technology to be turned on at the Ski Hill; 15 snow guns operated from about 11 p.m. to 9 a.m. to start the first layer of snow for the ski and snowboard season. The snow guns will operate again on Friday night and cooler temperatures are forecasted to return next

week so the guns will make snow once again. “We’re getting excited,� said Outside Operations Manager Danny MacDuffie. “The guys have been looking forward to getting the new snow grooming machine on the slopes. It won’t be long now.� The hill is due to open to the public in mid-December. Last year saw 100 per cent snow coverage all season long from day one. With forecasters predicting another winter like last year, expectations are high for another good year. At this time of the year temperatures change quite a bit and

that the temperature has to be just right relative to the moisture in the air in order to make snow with our snow guns,� said MacDuffie. “You can’t do it every day. There’s a real science to it.� A much-loved gathering place for friends and families since 1959, Batawa Ski Hill is a not-for-profit organization that offers adventure and discovery all year long.

Sports - Belleville - The Belleville Bulls will look to make up some ground on the team they’re chasing in the Ontario Hockey League’s East Division this weekend. The Bulls will head west to face the Oshawa Generals on Friday night, before returning home for two games at the Yardmen Arena. The Bulls host the Owen Sound Attack at 7:05 p.m. on Saturday night. They then host the Barrie Colts on Sunday at 4 p.m. Friday’s game features the two top teams in the East Division. Oshawa ended last weekend well ahead in first place, with a 16-2-1-0 record. Belleville ended the weekend at 12-7-1-1. While scoring hasn’t been a big problem for Belleville for most of the year, it was last weekend as they mustered just two goals in a pair of losses. On Friday, they travelled to Ottawa to face the division rival 67’s. Jordan Subban scored his 11th goal of the season (which puts him first in the league among defenceman) to give the Bulls a 1 - 0 first-period lead, but the 67’s scored once in the second and three times in the third to win the game 4 - 1. Charlie Graham, who missed some action the previous weekend because of an injury, was back in goal. He took the loss despite making 32 saves.

the Batawa Ski Hill crew are taking advantage of any dip in temperatures to make conditions as good as they can be this winter. “We’re hoping that Mother Nature co-operates again this year,� said MacDuffie. “But we’re happy to give it a hand with our snow guns too.� Parts of western Canada and northern Ontario have already been hit with snow from another Polar Vortex this year. It looks like it could be another typical Canadian winter which means skiing and snowboarding conditions will be great. “Not everyone realizes

Sports - Thursday evening last, the fire alarms were pulled at the Trenton Curling Club and 68 first responders roared into town for the 49th annual Department of National Defence Firefighters Bonspiel (or rocks and hoses). They came from as far west as Saskatchewan, east to Saint John and all points in between. First organized in 1965 by the late John Cowell, Fire Marshall of 1 Canadian Air Division, NATO forces in Germany, it is now the longest running DND sporting event. It is open to any DND firefighter, retired or still serving. The bonspiel began with a Meet & Greet on Thursday evening where the young met with the more mature, others re-connected with old friends, and everyone liberally exchanged war stories. Play kicked off at 6:30 a.m. on Friday morning to shake off the previous evening’s cobwebs. After the first draw, all of the curlers reassembled to be piped onto the ice by Sgt Don Greer of the 8 Wing pipes and Drums. LCol Ken Brooks, Canadian Forces Fire Marshall then welcomed the curlers and threw the ceremonial stone. Without the benefit of curling paraphernalia or sweeping, he made it to the far rings. Spirited play resumed on Friday and Saturday, but eventually age and experience won out over youth and exuberance. For the third year in a row, the Ottawa Old Timers captured the A event bling and bragging rights. The Bill Rodgers Memorial Trophy for Rookie of the Year went to Emily Sutherland, a volunteer firefighter in Clearwater County. Her military connection stems from doing her Co-op placement with the Base Borden fire fighters. The Sportsmanship Award went to the foursome from the CFB Borden fire hall. The prestigious Founders Trophy was awarded to the Toronto Airport rink, which, in a poignant moment, dedicated it to the memory of Canadian Forces Firefighter Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent who was struck

News - Norwood - Asphodel-Norwood got a rare chance to see how a topflight Canadian Armed Forces logistics unit goes to work supporting troops in the field when 277 members of 2 Service Battalion, with 150 vehicles in tow, set up camp in the township for Exercise Skilled Sustainer. 2 Service Battalion is a unit within the 2 Mechanized Canadian Brigade Group stationed in Petawawa and they rumbled into Norwood with their military pattern logistics vehicles and armoured vehicles late last week and established three encampments, one in the village at the Norwood Fairgrounds, another west of Norwood near a gravel pit on the Sand Road and another east of Norwood along Highway 7. The main base, with its operation centre, was at the fairgrounds. “The larger the move the harder the organization and it tests the unit,� said Lieutenant-Colonel Carla Harding, Commanding Officer of 2 Service Battalion. The 15-day exercise included in Asphodel-Norwood, Beeton and Bancroft. Every fall, soldiers from the battalion hit the road for a training exercise giving them a chance to deploy their equipment and work on the different skills that would be required in both domestic and international situations. The battalion provides things like warehousing support, distribution support and maintenance to all the equipment at Garrison Petawawa. They have the “deployment capability to support whatever element goes overseas and we also support things on the base,� Lieutenant Colonel Harding added. Key to the exercise was working in a populated area and that included foot and vehicle patrols in Norwood.

Battalion is entirely self-contained

“We go into towns and villages because it’s the way we do operations,” she said. “Quite frankly, we’ve never gone into the trees when we go overseas. Even for a domestic operation we would never go set up in a treeline. “We are trained in soldier skills but our primary role is as technicians: cooks, mechanics, transportation, ammunition, warehousing, finance, postal, mobile support. Our role is the

real work of getting [troops] to the point where they can actually shoot something.” “We’ve got the full spectrum of training.” The “side benefit” to Exercise Skilled Sustainer is that it gives soldiers a chance to “engage the public,” Lieutenant Colonel Harding said. “As simple as it sounds, when we go overseas a lot of our skill set comes from working with what local businesses have to offer, local procurement.”

The battalion is entirely self-contained with its own generators, heaters, laundry, showers, portable washrooms, water, kitchen, mess, etc. With its large maintenance shelters, sea containers and 20,000-ton trucks the battalion “needs pavement and gravel,” Lieutenant Colonel Harding noted. “One of the things we need to train on is the movement between locations and how you actually park your vehicles. They have to

be parked and grouped in certain ways so we can do the function we’re trained to do.” Harding said they were excited to be in Norwood. They entertained students from

Norwood District High School and Hucklebug Daycare, hosted councillors and Legion members at a mess dinner and opened their sites to the public Saturday morning. Some of the troops

visited the Legion’s military museum. “We’re ridiculously proud of our guys. They are exceptional technicians as well as great soldiers.”

their 15-day training exercise. “It’s a tremendous opportunity,” said Pearcy who himself was a weapons instructor for the Canadian Armed Forces and helped train Canadian soldiers deployed to the Belgian Congo as part of a United Nations force. “It’s good for people to be exposed to the military,” he said. “The more we know about the military the more we are apt to support them. We’ve just come off Remembrance Day so people should at least have that in their minds.” Pearcy found the battalion’s equipment “really interesting. “They transformed the fairgrounds into a little city in a matter of hours,” he said. “It’s enlightening. I hope people took advantage and went over and took a look and saw the trucks and different pieces of equipment, the field kitchen. The whole idea [of the exercise] is that it is something that move if they’re in a battle condition and they move the front line ahead then they’d move this little town ahead.” And while the unit can be deployed to support fighting troops it is also Asphodel-Norwood CAO Joe van Koeverden and Mayor Doug Pearcy welcome 2 Service Battalion Commanding Officer Lieu- can be used for things like disaster tenant Colonel Carla Harding, Sergeant Major Chief Warrant Officer Dan Dubuc and Captain Katie Chute during Exercise Skil- relief here and abroad. “If these guys are needed it’s led Sustainer.

The unit has seen action in places like Haiti, Afghanistan, the former Yugoslavia, the

Persian Gulf, the Manitoba floods and eastern Canada’s ice storm. “There could be more and more catastrophic weather events [and] that’s scary. It’s important to have the military in place to do their job. The way things have been going we’ll probably be supporting them a lot more than we have; we’ve got to have these guys.”

Christmas coming to Farmtown Park By Richard Turtle

Events - Stirling - While the local museum is closed for the season, staff and volunteers at Farmtown Park have been working behind the scenes in preparation for a pair of popular Christmas events that begin tonight, November 20. Manager Margaret Grotek says Christmas in Heritage Village, the annual celebration hosted in the museum’s reconstructed streetscape, has seen the building transformed into the Enchanted Forest, and starting at 4 p.m., visitors are invited to check out the numerous items up for raffle. Grotek says that, as in previous years, volunteers have been out shopping and gathering together countless seasonal items to create dozens of themed Christmas trees, swags, wreaths and other decorative items. And for the next four days,

she says, the special event will feature plenty of decorating ideas, provide numerous opportunities to win prizes and offer entertainment and refreshments as well as provide much needed funding for the ongoing operation of Farmtown Park. Each year the special events bring hundreds of visitors to the museum, and Grotek says they have proven to be highly successful fund raisers in the past. Each year in the weeks leading up to the late fall reopening, the creative skills of volunteers and supporters are put to the test as they shed a little light on some seasonal decorating ideas. Although the planning and preparation is a massive undertaking, she notes, there have been many experienced volunteers available to contribute to the success of the event and once again ex-

pectations are high attendance will continue to grow. Admission to the Enchanted Forest is $5 per person with raffle tickets available onsite. Beginning today from 4 to 9 p.m., Christmas at Farmtown Park continues Friday (11 a.m. to 1 p.m.) and Saturday (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) before the final day on Sunday from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. when all of the draws will be held. Today also marks the annual Starlite House Tour where five area residences, as well as Farmtown Park, are welcoming visitors throughout the afternoon and evening. Tickets for the tour, which runs from 4 to 8 p.m. today, are $20 each and can be purchased at Rustic Routes, Vintage Junction, The Apple Store, Stirling Dental Clinic or by calling Farmtown Park at 613-395-0015.

own image of beauty. As soon as the first hint of melting snow is in the air, you are in the stores. In the gardening world, summer is not really that important. Perhaps this surprises you, Gentle Reader, but consider that, unless you are embarking on a major landscaping project, there’s not much to do except fertilise and water. The rest of the time is devoted to the times of rest. The onset of fall causes us to change from human beings to human doings. Harvesting bounty, planting everything from bulbs to trees and preparing for winter keeps us active and engaged on our land. You folk are the most happy during this time: you’ve either reconciled horticultural disappointments and have a plan to make next year better or you’re revelling in a fantastic year of successes. Christmas, of course, is Christmas. (As an aside, I do wish convention allowed us to use a lower case “c”, e.g. christmas, when referring to the secular activities associated with this Holy Day). We started talking about the three main selling seasons; now, let me chat about the three busy seasons. They actually have the same name, transition, and they mark the changeover between each of the selling bits. It is true that the spring season is, physically, the busiest and toughest time throughout its course. There is lots of activity taking place which wears us down but more debilitating is the great deal of thinking that is also needed. It is the thinking bit that does me in. The easiest transition is from Christmas to spring. All we have to do is take down the decorations, grind up a few left over bits of greenery and fine tune the

as all of the plants and hard goods are already on site. We just have to advertise the fall sales, rearrange some of the displays to highlight fall activities and prepare for the busiest transition time, fall to Christmas. Some of my colleagues may disagree with me, but I find this to be a very demanding time of the year. Everything is in transition, including our mindset. In the yard, plants are prepared for the winter (pruning, wrapping and spraying for rodent protection, moving perennials and shrubs to hoop houses) putting plastic on the hoop houses, installing rabbit fences, bringing in and displaying almost 1,000 Christmas trees plus all the bits necessary to package them. The store is transformed into a wonderland of displays and treasures sure to put smiles on shoppers’ faces. Transformation is an all-hands evolution with preparation beginning in mid-October. Once transition is complete, all we have to do is maintain everything. This is one of the best times for me, which I find surprising because I’m busy selling people dead plant stuff such as cut trees, wreaths, boughs, colourful twigs and so on which is not what I imagine my calling to be. However, it

Dan Clost is fun to interact with the families and watch the children enjoying themselves. I take great pleasure in filling in the gaps in their understanding of the lore of this time. For example, we have a pond just chock full of large Christmas fish which Santa uses in the tropics. Didn’t know that did you GR? Winter time is split between three main activities. At our location, we have a tropical house and gift shop that is open year round so retail continues. The other two tasks are analysis with, preparations for next year based on those figures and satisfying the needs of compliance with all acts and laws that regulate our industry. You folk aren’t really involved so this time doesn’t count as a “season” unless we appropriate the Bard’s moniker as “the season of our discontent.”

From the Andes to Tweed (and back)

By Brett Mann

News - Tweed - “It’s great to see snow again.� Father Maurice (“Mo�) Schroeder may have been the only Tweed resident to be enthused at a recent dreary wet November snowfall. The Oblate priest is filling in at St. Carthagh’s and St. Edmund’s Churches for Father Mark Ruckpaul who is on sabbatical study leave at the Vatican. Originally from Elrose, Saskatchewan, Father Schroeder has spent most of his recent life working in Peru. He was ordained in 1962 and graduated from the University of Calgary Faculty of Medicine in 1976. He became a medical doctor on completing an internship in family practice in Texas. In the fall of 1977 he went to Peru. “When I first went to Peru I was at this town here called Aucayacu,� says Father Schroeder, pointing to a map of the interior of Peru in the high Amazon. “I was there for five years in a very rural village training rural health workers.� This was followed by studies at the Antwerp Tropical Medicine School and three years working with leprosy patients

in Haiti, coinciding with the last three years of the dictatorial JeanClaude Duvalier regime, Father Schroeder notes. “In 1986 I came back to Peru to Santa Clotilde on the Napo River in the extreme northeast of Peru. It is a tributary of the Amazon near the city of Iquitos. Iquitos is the world’s largest land-locked city in the sense that the only access is by water or air. There are no roads into Iquitos.� When Father Schroeder first came to Santa Clotilde it was the chief medical centre apart from the hospital in Iquitos, three days journey distant. With the help of an American priest, Father Jack McCarthy, he established a health care system on the river. “We were the first resident doctors,� Father Schroeder reports although an existing dispensary had been run by nursing nuns from Lennoxville, Quebec. There was little or no government sponsored medical services. Government ministries gradually “grafted into� the church’s medical infrastructure and currently medical services and education are provided under a

“convenio� or formal agreement between the local bishop and government ministries. From its humble beginnings Santa Clotilde now has an officially recognized functioning 30-bed hospital with a jurisdiction extending 400 kilometres along the Napo river—“like taking a motor boat from Tweed to Montreal� Father Schroeder remarks. “We have 12 different medical posts on that stretch and we have some medical professionals there. We have lots of volunteers. We have 50 people working in the hospital and another 20 at the river posts.� Two-thirds of staff are employed by the Peruvian Ministry of Health and the remainder by a “civil association—an NGO� named PANGO, the native word for a common food. Under Peruvian government policies, young professionals such as doctors and dentists must work for one year in rural areas and “we’ve had the benefits of their service from the earliest years,� says Father Schroeder. This area of Peru at one time had the highest incidence of a particular form of malaria any-

where in Latin America. “It was a scourge.� Through the help of Global Fund, a charity supported by Bill Gates, thousands of insecticide-treated bed nets were supplied along with immediate treatment, crucial for containing malaria outbreaks. “People are the reservoir for the disease, not mosquitoes,� observes Father Schroeder.� Other aid provided by Global Fund addressed many non-malarial needs and included a satellite WiFi communications system which has made the region more enticing to visiting medical personnel. On leaving Tweed at the end of November Father Schroeder will visit Saskatchewan and return to his work in Peru which now consists mainly of fund raising and community liaison. “Tweed is a lovely town with lovely parishes,� he remarks. “I’m a visitor here and it has given me a Oblate Father Maurice “Mo� Schroeder will be returning to a long career of great retreat from the world with spiritual medical and pastoral service in the interior of Peru after three months fillcalm and fruitful reflection.� ing in at St. Carthagh’s and St. Edmund’s Churches for Father Mark Ruckpaul who is on sabbatical.

Enjoying the Night Watchman’s Tour in Rothenburg, Germany

By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - Rothenburg ob der Tauber (Red Fort on the River Tauber) is one of Europe’s best preserved and most beautiful walled medieval towns, and it’s located near the north end of Germany’s so-called “Romantic Road,” a popular tourist magnet in the southern provinces of Baden-Wurttemberg and Bavaria. This enticing destination was at one time an important crossroads of trade routes and more populated than such modern metropolises as nearby Nuremburg, Frankfurt, or Munich. However, it went into a serious decline after the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), for it was badly damaged by invaders at that time, and then it was further destroyed by the arrival of the Black Death. The area remained in a kind of “sleep mode” for about 250 years after that disturbing time period, but it has since re-emerged as a popular tourist destination. There are its walkable massive walls that surround the town, its enormous town gates, enticing church spires, picturesque redroofed buildings, and popular attractions, including a year-round Christmas Village, Doll & Toy Museum, Medieval Crime Museum, Imperial City Museum (housed in a former Dominican nunnery), and historic Town Hall (with its dungeons, clock, councillor’s tavern, and lookout tower). This Town Hall now houses the tourism office, too. I discovered that one of the very best ways to explore this particular destination, and to learn of Rothenburg’s intriguing history, was to join the Night

A view of a castle gate and tower from the Castle Garden.

Watchman’s Tour, available in the Market Square, right next to the Town Hall, each night at 8 (from mid-March until Christmas). Not only was this tour in English, it was also both very informative and very entertaining. George, the Night Watchman, was dressed in a broad-brimmed hat, wore a large black cape over his clothes, and carried a lantern. He made his grand entrance into the square and immediately began to entertain our large tour group with his humorous and colourful anecdotes. He told us of the Night Watchman’s important function here in the early part of the 20th century, for he’d walk through the fortified city, making certain that “all was well.” Since most of the good citizens were in bed early, and he made his rounds between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m., he primarily met the drunks and thieves. Therefore, he carried a weapon for COACH & TOURS protection, a hellebarde. He also wore a horn on a chain around his neck, in case he had to warn the sleeping citizens of a fire, for “this was EXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO the greatest danger in a city of EXCELLENCE wooden houses in pre-fire hydrant days.” He told us the job Watertown Shopping - Saturday, November 29/14 of “making the rounds” was Alight at Night, Upper Canada Village - Saturday, December 6/14 much easier and safer now, on Festival of Lights - Niagara Falls - December 7-9/14 Florida Sunshine Clearwater Beach - February 5 -19/15 this arranged tour, “for you’re Toronto Sportsman Show - Saturday, February 7/15 all going with me.” He went Winterlude - February 14/15 on to tell us that, at one time, Spring Fling Myrtle Beach - February 26 to March 13/15 in the early 20th century (up Charleston, Beaufort SC & Savannah GA - April 16-22/15 to 1920), there were six Night Arizona Desert in Bloom - April 22 to May 14/15 Watchmen in Rothenburg ob Toronto Premium Outlets - Saturday, May 2/15 der Tauber, but he confided Blue Jays vs Red Sox - Saturday, May 9/15 that he “had to eventually get Ottawa Tulip Festival - Wednesday, May 13/15 rid of the other five in order to Amish Indiana - June 1-5/15 make a living.” Ontario Summer Adventure - July 6-11/15 As he led us through the Call us for your group transportation needs.

Entrance through this smaller door was accompanied by rather rough treatment, plus a fine. However, at least you’d then be safely inside the city walls. I was also told that most of the old houses within Rothenburg contained hooks up by the attics, for food and goods were regularly stored up here, in case of a “lockdown” because of a threatened invasion. Going through this city gate brought us out into the Castle Gardens, and from here we could look down into the Tauber Valley far below and see Toppler’s Little Castle (former home of a mayor) and the 14th century Kobolzeller Church. While in this area, George gave us some of the details of Rothenburg’s history, including the destructive Thirty Years War and the onset of the plague. As George confessed, these weren’t really “the good old days,” for disease and poverty became rampant. He said it was finally concluded, after these “dark days”, that “if you didn’t have money, you should at least have a good idea.” He continued this train of thought by saying “by the way, that’s I walked on the medieval wall that still encircles Rothenburg ob der Tauhow I became a Night Watchman.” ber. This led me to be impressed by this young man as an entrepreneur, for he certainly seemed to have a “good idea” going here. After all, the tour seemed to be very popular and successful, attracting large crowds of paying customers (7 EUR for adult; 4 EUR for students; free under 12). The tour took about an hour, and he did it daily, at 8 p.m. in English and again at 9:30 p.m. in German, and he concluded each tour with an opportunity for the purchasing of postcards/photos based on this tour and/ or a DVD, narrated by George himself, of “The History of Rothenburg ob der Tauber.” As the Night Watchman led us back inside the walled, fortified city near the end of our tour, we passed a medieval tavern named Hoell (Hell). He confided that he “had once been told to ‘go to Hell’” and it wasn’t so bad.” In fact, he admitted, This small door within the big door served as an entrance to the fortified “I rather liked it.” town after curfew.

didly told the Trent Hills Independent. “We had to memorize the seating chart for the MPPs, where they were from, names, faces and everything about them. It was really challenging.” But for this Grade 8 student at St. Mary’s Catholic Elementary School in Campbellford, it was an experience she will never forget. Her mom, Tina Stephens, who worked for (former) MPP Rob Milligan as constituency assistant from 2011 to this last election, had encouraged her to apply. “I went to Rob’s swearing in at Queen’s Park. That’s when I decided I really liked it there,” said Josée. As part of the application process she had to write a 750-word essay, show participation in extracurricular activities and have a minimum academic average of 80 per cent. As well she had to have a letter of recommendation from her principal. There were more than 500 applications for this session so competition was intense. A total of 24 Pages were in the 41st session with her, all of whom she got to know very well.

The group is already planning a reunion. “The most fun about the program was being up there and meeting and making new friends. I miss them a lot,” she said. “I still talk to at least one of them every day and we all keep in touch, we have a contact list.” While there as a Page she worked in the Legislative Chamber, performing many duties for the Speaker of the House, MPPs and the Officers of the House. She would collect and distribute official documents, deliver important messages to and from MPPs and their assistants, and deliver glasses of water. As a Page she also delivered messages from the Chamber to other legislative offices. While at Queen’s Park, she attended class, learned about the legislative process, and was tutored in mathematics. “Our teacher was Miss [Erin] Tedford. She’s the co-ordinator of the program.” Pages participated in special educational activities and field trips once a

week as well. During her time as a Page, Josée got to meet former MPP Milligan, who is teaching again at Campbellford District High School. He brought a class of students to Queen’s Park while she was there. She also met MPP Lou Rinaldi. When asked if she had a career in politics in mind Josée said, “I would like to be an aide.” But she has a couple of other options up her sleeve. “I like criminology and forensics too.” Her third option is journalism, “because I like to write.” But for now she is back in school with her classmates and has returned to her usual routine of bowling, playing volleyball and soccer at school, and going to the Hastings-Prince Edward Cadet (2777) meetings every week … but she hasn’t forgotten her time as a Page nor the friends she made. “My main memory from this is the friends I made … and many people have said this will open a lot of doors for me,” she said with a grin.

Events - Hastings - It will be an elegant, rustic, colourful, inventive and certainly festive event as the Hastings Waterfront Festival hosts its first annual Christmas House Tour November 29 with seven very different

homes featured and an invitation also to visit the Hastings Legion’s popular “Last Chance” craft bazaar. The proceeds from the house tour will benefit the Hastings Waterfront Festival which ran into bad luck with weather this

past August with half the event rained out. “Planning started last year to put on this fun event to bring visitors to Hastings and its businesses when we thought the bridge would be closed after Christmas,” Waterfront Festival

chair Erin Farley said. At that time, Farley says they had no idea where they’d earmark proceeds but wet weather meant the 2014 festival was not able to make any profits so they’ve decided to channel proceeds from the house tour into next year’s waterfront festival for start-up costs. They also picked a tour date in the later summer of 2013 so it could be featured in 2014 municipal tourism guides and they chose November 29 so it wouldn’t

conflict with the Branch 106 craft bazaar; they had no idea Santa Claus parades would take place in Campbellford, Norwood, Cordova Mines and Warsaw on that day. Happily, the Legion decided to move its bazaar so that it coincides with the house tour so it could become an added attraction for tour visitors. If they’d known of the parades they wouldn’t have picked November 29, says Farley. If they organize a house tour next year they’ll

shift to some time in December. “Other Christmas house tours in Trent Hills [have been] well attended and this seemed to be a good way to bring visitors to Hastings before the previously planned bridge closure,” says Farley. The tour offers a delightful variety of homes to browse, everything from circa 1850 Gothic and a red cedar British Columbia-fashioned log house to contemporary and the eye-catching “Stonegate” built in 1935 as a summer residence for a family from Virginia. Farley is both excited and nervous about the showcase and hopes local residents and visitors take advantage of what they have to offer. She also encourages them to visit Legion Branch 106 to browse and to support local businesses who’ve been encouraged to decorate their stores and storefronts. The Waterfront Festival itself is responsible for the window display in the empty space next to the Ultimate Bait Shop on Front Street. Denise Richardson and friends have brought their talents to bear on the windows. “The empty building on Bridge Street next to the Water Lily will be decorated by the owner and of course the seven homeowners are doing a lot of decorating to make their places look wonderful for visitors,” adds Farley. The tour runs from noon until 5 p.m. A tour passport is $20 and must be shown to the greeter at each home. Passports are available at The Water Lily in Hastings, Trent Hills & District Chamber of Commerce, Bridgewater Café in Hastings and Legion Branch 106. For more information call 705696-1697.

Petty speaks of broadcasting and beyond

News - Quinte West - She is a helicopter pilot and a filmmaker, an author and public speaker and has hosted her own television show, jumped out of airplanes and earned certification as a scuba diver. And if there is one thing Dini Petty has learned over the course of a well-travelled career and life, that has also involved numerous firsts, it is the knowledge that “there is a lot more than this.” Petty spoke at Johnstown Church last weekend as part of the fund-raising series in support of the Roy Bonisteel Tribute Garden, offering a little insight into the world of broadcasting and beyond. She also acknowledged Bonisteel’s exceptional career and his contribution to Canadian journalism. In his introduction, event organizer Brian Weston welcomed the crowd of about two dozen, noting that in light of the fact that the series is paying tribute to an iconic Canadian broadcaster, it was only fitting to have another broadcasting icon included. Petty, who continues to travel and speak to groups about her life and work, was an obvious choice, he says. And the guest speaker provided plenty of food for thought along with her collection of anecdotes that ranged from interviewing experiences to inexplicable occurrences that were both death defying and otherworldly. The daughter of Canada’s first talent agent, Molly Petty, she eagerly volunteered for her first stage performance at the age of five and “the parade of beautiful men and

women … began when I was 11 years old.” And while the experience she recounts was admittedly an intimidating one, Petty says, “I got to understand beauty.” Not many years later, she forged her mother’s signature to go skydiving, and she says, that eventually led to 5,000 hours at the controls of a pink media helicopter. And while much of her flying experience was mundane, she says, it also included some life-altering moments. Her television career started at CityTV before she went on to CTV and her own show. And in that time she conducted more than 20,000 interviews, with many of them memorable she says, but adds it was the connection she made with comedian Red Skelton that was truly special. Tongue-tied at their first meeting, Petty says the two became very close. In the ensuing years, Skelton gave her one of his paintings as a birthday present. In concluding her presentation, Petty read a letter he penned in 1994. “I’ve never met anyone like that,” she says. To close, she read from her children’s book The Queen, The Bear and the Bumblebee, which is currently being adapted for the stage and Petty is hopeful will come to Toronto in the near future. As the series continues, Weston and partner Lesley Bonisteel are also hosting an Opera Cocktail Party, featuring teen singing sensation Roanna Lee Kitchen, on November 22 as well as a reading of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol on December 6.

New artist shares her talent teaching free classes News - Campbellford - Newcomer to town, Jeanette Campbell has brought her artistic talents with her to Trent Hills where she is sharing her creative abilities, teaching others how to paint. “I am an artist and have been teaching all my life,” she told the Trent Hills Independent.

This newspaper caught up to her at the Forrest Dennis Seniors Centre in Campbellford where she has been instructing a group of art enthusiasts. Her class has grown these past several weeks and about 20 attend. And it’s free thanks to sponsorship by Hillside Haven Retirement Residence in partnership with the Campbellford Senior Citizens’ Club. “I offered my services and they thought it was a good idea,” said Campbell, as she moved from student to student answering any questions they might have such as how to mix paints to achieve a specific colour or where to place the brush stroke for a special effect. C a m p b e l l ’s teaching style is one she has fine tuned over the years. “I would say I really like my stuROSSMORE dents to develop 613-966-6656 their own style,” she commented.

“I don’t like to have them all copying what I do so my biggest challenge is to guide them and direct them to develop their own style and to really enjoy what they are doing,” she explained. “I have been painting all my life. Had my first show when I was 13 and have been teaching since my early 20s,” she added. Growing up in Toronto, she moved to New Liskeard for a while to be closer to her mother who had moved there. She raised her three daughters but spent a lot of time travelling back and forth to Toronto for her career as an artist. Her work has been shown at the White Castle Gallery and she still has a lot of her paintings at Studio Two in Hamilton. Having studied art at McMaster University she has developed quite a portfolio. “I did a lot of portrait work,” she noted. “Right now I am working mostly in acrylics and watercolours but I mostly painted in oils for ten years.” Through word of mouth her class of adults here has grown during the past several weeks. “We are working with acrylics and watercolours … people here are working with both mediums, some are beginners some have painted before or maybe haven’t painted for a while and are back at it,” she said.

Adult classes in art are being offer free at the Forrest Dennis Seniors Centre in Campbellford thanks to sponsorship by Hillside Haven Retirement Residence in partnership with the Campbellford Senior Citizens’ Club. Newcomer to town, Jeanette Campbell, standing, back left, is sharing her talents, teaching the classes. Photo: Sue Dickens

One of her students is Norma Moran, who at the young age of 96 years, joined the group to continue to enjoy her love of painting. She has been a member of the seniors’ club for 20 years or more. “I like to do oil painting, scenes, birds, animals,” she said. Her work hangs in the hallways of the apartment building she lives in across the road from the centre. “I love to paint, it is my only hobby,” she said. Sandy Moody is another taking the art classes. “I enjoy it because it’s ful-

filling. There’s a creative part in us all and Jeanette is able to bring it out,” she said. “She is a wonderful artist I love her work and would love to be able to paint like her.” Cheryl Easterbrook finds the classes very enjoyable. “I like it because it is very therapeutic and relaxing,” she noted. The classes take place very Tuesday from 10 a.m. to noon at the centre. If interest continues Campbell hopes to teach another series in January 2015.

Any community is made up from the sum of its parts, and when you participate within it, you support local business and the people and the population in more ways than you can know. For the past 26 plus years,Inova Opticians has been serving Belleville, Ontario with pride and wants you to be aware of the buy local proposition. When you buy from an independent, locally-owned business, rather than nationally-owned businesses and even big box stores, significantly more of your money is used to make purchases from other local business, service providers and even farms, continuing to strengthen the economic base of the community. Support community groups; where we shop, where we eat and have fun – all of it makes your community home. One-of-a-kind independent businesses are an integral part of the distinctive character of any neighborhood. Locally owned businesses can make more local purchases requiring less transportation and generally set up shop in town or city centres as opposed to developing on the fringe. This generally means contributing less to urban sprawl, congestion, habitat loss and, of course – pollution. Statistically, small local businesses are often the largest employer and in your community, provide the most jobs to residents. Furthermore, they often hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers. Local businesses are owned by people who live in this community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in your district’s future. Considering all of that, make an appointment with a reputable local eye care specialist like Inova Opticians. Conveniently located at 150 Sidney Street in Belleville. Your one-stop destination for professional eye examinations, modern fashionable eyewear and consultations to ensure the health of you and your family’s eyes. “Like” us on Facebook.

Health and Wellness Fair a fund raiser for Flourish Campaign

By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - Building on past success the third annual Warkworth Health and Wellness Fair will again be offering a myriad of vendors with products and services to make folks feel better and live better. Money raised at this event will go toward the Flourish Campaign which has a goal of $7 million to be raised over the next ďŹ ve years, toward health and wellness projects that will beneďŹ t the entire Trent Hills community. In Warkworth the campaign will use some of its money to build a one-storey addition to the arena. “This time around I am doing the fair in memory of my father Alvin Greenly who is a former Kinsmen and he passed away in May of cancer,â€? said the fair’s organizer Cherie Whalen, for whom the event is all about giving back. “Kinsmen built the initial arena so I thought it would be ďŹ tting,â€? she added. The ďŹ rst year the fair was held proceeds were donated to St. Paul’s United Church in Warkworth. The second year the money went to help one family in particular, Chris and Krista Gutteridge and their three children. “[Chris] has some serious health issues that [have] put him into the hospital for quite an amount of time ‌ so things were really tight with them ďŹ nancially,â€? said Whalen. As well the proceeds raised at a Legion dance that same weekend, organized by Whalen’s husband, Jake, were donated to the Gutteridge family. That is what the Whalens do ‌ they volunteer their time and energy to their community. “We’ve always been a volunteering family,â€? noted Whalen. “In 2008 my husband and I started a charity, The Warkworth Family Feud. My theory is when you give out you get Cherie Whalen has organized the third annual back and it’s just good Karma to give.â€?

Hockey legend Theo Fleury to speak about abuse News - Belleville - One of Canada’s biggest hockey stars from the 1990s and early 2000s is coming to Belleville next month to speak about his new book, which takes an insightful and honest look at healing and recovering from trauma and abuse. The Belleville Public Library will host the book talk and signing by Olympic and Stanley Cup champion Theo Fleury and world-renowned therapist Kim Barthel, authors of Conversations with a Rattlesnake. The event takes place on Tuesday, December 9, from 5 to 8 p.m. Conversations with a Rattlesnake provides real accounts from Theo’s personal story and the science behind human behaviour. This story makes this difďŹ cult topic, and the knowledge it shares, accessible to everyone. Books will be available for pur-

chase and both authors will be available for signing. No registration is required for this free event. Fleury played 16 seasons in the National Hockey League, with the Calgary Flames, New York Rangers, Colorado Avalanche and Chicago Blackhawks. He was part of the Flames’ 1988-1989 Stanley Cup winning team and a member of the gold-medal winning Canadian Olympic team from 2002. But he walked away from hockey suddenly in 2003 and has since devoted his life to raising awareness of abuse. He is also the author of Playing with Fire, an autobiography in which he acknowledged suffering abuse from his junior hockey coach and how the trauma affected his personal life. For more details on this event call 613-968-6731 ext. 2237.

Mom, you are now free of the disease that took so much away from you and Dad.

Corner Gas star coming to Empire Theatre Entertainment - Belleville - One of Canada’s most famous comedians is coming to Belleville. Brent Butt will return to the Empire Theatre for a show on Thursday, January 15, at 8 p.m. Born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan, Brent discovered early that being funny was a good way to get attention. Brent honed his comedy in school and at the age of 20 moved to the city to pursue a career in stand-up. Within months he was headlining top clubs in Toronto, and within a couple of years he was touring internationally and appearing at major festivals. His television specials quickly secured his reputation as one of the funniest people in the country, but he was also busy creating his own TV series, the sitcom Corner Gas. It became an instant hit with unprecedented ratings and numerous accolades including an International Emmy Award nomination, and was named “Funniest Show on TV” by TV Guide readers. Corner Gas is now shown in over 26 countries including the U.S. The final episode of the series was “the highest [rated] on record for a Canadian scripted series since it began keeping track in 1994.” Brent’s follow-up series HICCUPS ran for two seasons. In 2013 Brent was honoured with a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his contributions to community and country. Tickets are $39.50 plus HST and the ticket service fee.
