Mayor Don Eady said he’d like to see incentive programs more widely available. “The downtown area is great but we have businesses that are not considered to be in the downtown core,” he said. “In my opinion only, it has to be a Renfrew-wide program.” Renfrew Reeve Peter Emon asked if the programs could be altered if required. “If we initiate the pro-

gram and find in a year or two it needs to be altered, can that be done?” Emon asked. Gauthier said council can revisit and revise the programs. Often, financial incentives for façade improvements are most popular but demand dies down after a few years, he said, and the town can refocus efforts. “Council will need to budget funding for the financial incentive programs,” said Gauthier. Neighbouring communities with CIPs in place include Arnprior and Perth. Both plans are focused on downtown. Arnprior allocates $15,000 annually while Perth budgets $25,000. Comments and input

will be gathered until May 31 and consultants will refine and finalize the draft plan. A statutory public meeting will be held in June or July

with the hopes to have the final plan go to council for approval in late July or August. For more information, visit www.town.renfrew.on.ca .

Renfrew property owners will soon have a new tool and added support to help them make improvements to their businesses and properties. The community had a look at the proposed community improvement plan (CIP) for Renfrew at a public meeting on Wednesday, April 22 at town hall. The mayor and several council members joined town staff, consultants and members of the public to learn more about the draft CIP, which is a tool that will facilitate revitalization and redevelopment efforts in designated areas. MMM Group representatives Bobby Gauthier and Chris Tyrrell presented the plan, which includes a variety of incentive programs. The CIP is a long-term plan, explained Gauthier. Grants provided are typically 50 per cent of costs, amounts are capped and there will be limited funding for implementation, he added. Proposed incentive programs include: a grant for façade, building and signage improvement; a grant for property, landscaping and parking area improvement; a tax increment equivalent grant, a planning and building permit fee grant; an environmental study grant; and a brownfield property tax assistance program. Municipal leadership programs are another facet of the CIP. Proposed leadership programs in the Renfrew draft include: a downtown urban design study/guidelines and streetscape master plan; heritage property tax relief program; gateway improvements; sign bylaw update; and downtown parking study and strategy. MMM is recommending that incentive programs be focused on the downtown and commercial/mixed uses but that brownfield incentives be available anywhere in town. “Compliance with design criteria will be required,” said Gauthier. “Council sets an annual budget for incentives.” The application process is designed to be simple and a brochure will be prepared to market the programs, Gauthier added. This was the second CIP-related public meeting and officials were encouraged to see attendance much higher this time around. Input collected at the first meeting indicated the downtown would benefit from signage, façade and building improvements, including addressing accessibility issues. Other input included: the approach to the town via Highway 17 could benefit from some gateway features; brownfield sites should be addressed;

Budget lacks funding for economic development Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Several members of Renfrew council are concerned that the proposed 2015 budget doesn’t include any new funding for economic development. During the election campaign, a need for improved economic development became clear, said Coun. Andrew Evans. “I don’t see anything in our budget recognizing that,” said Evans. “We’re not addressing a concern the populous had.” Mayor Don Eady and others agreed the issue is an important one. “During election time we all talked about economic development, we get here and there’s no money on the table,” said Eady. “I do think department heads need to sit down and find out within their own

departments what’s available in actual time from their employees,” the mayor said. The economic development committee and Renfrew Industrial Commission (RIC) each have roles to play when it comes to developing the local economy. “This is an area that is like a black hole, we need to fill that black hole and we’re going to fill that black hole,” said Eady. “It’s very important to the town, if we expect the town to grow, we have to do that.” Treasurer Keray O’Reilly said council has to sort out what the economic development committee and the RIC’s roles are. The April 21 Committee of the Whole session was designed for council and staff to go over the budget and provide comments and questions.

Acclaimed composer adjudicates at festival and offers concert Lucy Hass

lucy.hass@metroland.com

Piano music runs through Frank Horvat’s veins. You can sense it as he leans into his music. Horvat performed in front of an appreciative audience last week in Renfrew, and free-will donations raised at the door will go to the annual Renfrew Rotary Music Festival that wrapped up with an awards concert last night at Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church in Renfrew. Horvat, who is piano adjudicator at this year’s festival, was happy to play the mini concert featuring his own compositions. Born and raised in Ottawa and now living in Toronto, adjudicating at the Renfrew festival carried a special bonus – his parents were able travel to Renfrew to join him one evening for dinner. But the biggest bonus of all was the satisfaction drawn from hearing young people pursue their love of piano. “I just like working with the kids and getting a chance to see them succeed,” said Horvat. “It sort of gives you that feeling of the fact that you’re helping, or just a little bit of a part of the achievement that they feel in attending, and that really feels good, from a music educator standpoint. “I obviously get that from my own students – I have a full teaching studio of my own students in Toronto – but it’s different when you come to a festival because they don’t know you and you don’t know them yet so you’re just simply sharing the most basic, enjoyable thing about music. It’s just about music.” For some young people, it’s an important chapter in their lives. “It’s interesting how there’s different phases, different kids, but it’s always sort of the same intent and the same sort of impact and reasons to do it, which is to enjoy music and to achieve

a goal,” he said. And while the concentration of classes is smaller at festivals in rural areas, to Horvat “that’s just a population thing.” An experienced piano adjudicator, Horvat notes one common theme on the festival scene. “It’s interesting, what’s common among most festivals is, as the classes get older or more advanced students – like higher grades or higher age groups – how it just sort of tapers away. There are less and less kids, and that’s something that most festivals do have in common. Kids get older, the demands on their life get stronger, so just playing piano as a casual thing becomes a very difficult to do. And only the kids that tend to be very serious about it remain.” Aside from adjudicating, the award-winning, critically-acclaimed composer and performs both in Canada and abroad, alone and with The Frank Horvat Band. April 21 Horvat treated his Renfrew audience to a wide range of compositions, and between selections he shared information about himself and his work and the inspiration behind individual pieces. Passionate about social issues related to poverty and the environment, his humanity is embodied in his online description as “pianist, composer, volunteer, environmentalist, husband, son and friend.” “My music is basically a hybrid of all the music I love to play and listen to, so classical, jazz, pop, so when I write my own music, all that music sort of rubs off on my own personal style. “I grew up playing all those styles of music. I enjoyed playing all those styles of music. So, for me, I’ve never creatively felt inhibited that I couldn’t do my own thing with all those things that I loved so much.” You can learn more about horvat and his music at frankhorvat.com

Horton council gets OPP update sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Renfrew OPP Detachment Commander Colin Slight was at the April Horton council meeting to update council and discuss police-related issues. With new councils having settled in following last year’s municipal election, Slight is making the rounds to local council meetings. “It’s always a really good opportunity to stop for a minute and summarize where we all fit in the big puzzle,” said Slight. “Municipalities play a role in public safety.” Slight went over recent crime statistics for the township. When it comes to violent crime, there were six assaults in Horton Township in 2014, compared to seven in 2013 and no sexual assaults in 2014, compared to one the previous year. There were two reported ‘other crimes against a person’ in 2014, compared to four in 2013. Break-and-enters in the township were down in 2014 – there were three, compared to 15 in 2013. There were two reported ‘thefts over $5,000’ in 2014 and three in 2013. ‘Thefts under $5,000’ were up 68 per cent were 19 ‘thefts under $5,000’ in 2014 and 32 in 2014. Part of that increase was a rash of vehicle break-ins that the detachment addressed with a Lock it or Lose it campaign that engaged the auxiliary unit, Slight explained. There were two fraud charges laid in 2013 and five in 2014, and 22 mischief charges in 2013 versus eight in 2014. Addressing core social problems will lead to lower crime rates, Slight said. Among the issues facing police officers is dealing with individuals with mental health issues. “In the first two months of 2015, officers from the three Renfrew County detachments dealt with 131 different individuals with mental health issues,” said Slight. “When you look at those 131 individuals we‘ve been in contact with them 1,904 times. Not

all were repeat clients but there is an indicative problem.” Officials have come up a local action plan to help deal with the issue and it involves prevention, education and engagement. It’s about getting the appropriate referrals and resource mechanisms in place, hopefully before it becomes a police issue. Slight’s presentation covered a summary of the Police Services Act, the OPP billing model, civilian governance, the OPP strategic plan and the Renfrew detachment action plan. Horton is a non-contract municipality, explained Slight, Under Section 5 of the Police Services Act, a municipality’s policing options include: establish a police force; enter into an agreement with one or more other municipal councils to constitute a joint board; enter into an agreement with one or more councils to amalgamate their police forces; contract services from either a contiguous police force or from the OPP default to Section 5.1 of the PSA (non-contract policing option). The OPP provides service to about 322 municipalities; 172 on a noncontract basis and 150 on a contract basis. Horton is a member of the Community Police Advisory Committee (CPAC), along with representatives from Whitewater, McNab-Braeside and Greater Madawaska, said Slight. “And once every two months we come together and have discussions about what’s happening publicsafety-wise,” he said. “The whole objective is to advise the detachment commander of your objectives and priorities.” CPAC has to become more engaged and more vibrant, said Slight. “We have to recognize that not all public safety issues are police responsibility,” he said. “We shouldn’t always lead the parade, but we like to be a part of the parade and be up front.” In his snapshot of the Renfrew detachment, Slight explained the detachment provides integrated police services to seven contract and noncontract municipalities. “Our prime focus is public safety

and we need to work closely together,” said Slight. The OPP’s strategic plan and other information is available online at opp.ca .

First we can’t wait to grow up, just to find out that it’s not all bells and whistles. The moment we experience our first menses, our life changes. Many girls have mixed feelings.

Devastating menstrual pains can cause headaches, constipation, nausea, doubling over and in extreme cases a potential loss of consciousness. Some women are bedridden. Emotions and feelings might be rampant and anxiety can strike. It’s no fun not for the person, nor for their families. Some women are lucky and have close to no issues and others for unknown reasons, seem to take the brunch of it. Stop fighting it! I know what you are going through. I’ve had my own severe struggle. Come and see me. We’ll be able to treat you successfully, rebalance your hormones and get to the root of your suffering. Remember, we have the God given right to feel and look beautiful and enjoy life fully without any monthly interruptions. Are you sick and tired flying off the handle? or sitting in the corner and sobbing for no reason? While there might be many reasons at play here, for women, this often happens during PMS times. We are unable to control our emotions as we usually would and generally feel overwhelmed with lives demands. Our Heilkunst treatment rebalances, lifts you up and makes you strong to handle any new situation or old for that matter The majority of women are concerned with the prevention of a pregnancy for most of their lives. Questions like which option is the right one for me? For my body, my health, my morals or religion? swirl through their heads. On the other hand, only the woman who wants to conceive and so far can’t, knows the endless pain associated with fertility issues when she sees yet another stroller in front of her, to hear a joyeus laughter of a toddler or to observe a sleeping baby in mom’s arms. The irony is, it’s devastating to become pregnant if you don’t want to, but it’s even more devastating if you’d like to start a family and you can’t. Heilkunst helps with both, but it is always again a privilege and honour to aid in the creation of a new family. Stay tuned for our next write up on Menopause.

TransCanada delays Energy East pipeline project until at least 2020 derek.dunn@metroland.com

TOWN HALL TOPIC

Energy East was a popular topic at the township’s April 16 town hall meeting at McNab Public School. Mayor Tom Peckett said if the pipeline is to go ahead – municipal and provincial governments have no authority over national infrastructure projects – it should be done with a new pipeline.

The 35-year-old existing one is more susceptible to failure, he said. “We are not trying to scare anyone. This is information residents need to know,” Peckett said. “If something happens to that pipeline, people’s homes and tourism and everyone down river including Arnprior and Ottawa will see their drinking water affected.” One person from the audience of about 40 called it

an environmental disaster waiting to happen. Natural gas evaporates in the air, oil floats, but dilbit, a bitumen diluted with one or more lighter petroleum products, sinks and is costly – if impossible – to remove from river bottoms and aquifers. MacKenzie said the small addition to the municipality’s revenue isn’t worth the risk. Another said transporting one million barrels of oil a day at 1,000 psi through a

various routes

An excellent business opportunity is now available to established retailers in Madawaska.

Seeking reliable people to deliver the

The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is seeking a responsible, customer-focused retailer to operate an LCBO Agency Store in Madawaska. To qualify, the applicant must have an existing, currently operating retail business in the community and commit to operating the Agency store within established LCBO guidelines. To facilitate the sale of beverage alcohol products, the operator may be required to enter into separate commercial arrangements with the LCBO and domestic beer suppliers. The successful applicant will also be required to participate in a special LCBO server-training program to ensure the responsible sale of beverage alcohol products. Since 1962, the LCBO has authorized more than 200 Agency stores to serve communities that have requested service but where the local population is too small to support a regular LCBO or beer store. These Agency stores are operated by local retailers within their existing retail business. Agency store contracts are normally awarded for a five-year term. In communities where there is currently an Agency store, as the contract nears expiry, the LCBO will take into consideration the fact that new businesses in the community may have been established and will allow an opportunity for all businesses in the community to compete for the next five-year term. Operating an LCBO Agency Store provides a retailer with an excellent opportunity to increase revenue and attract customers while providing local residents with beverage alcohol services. Agency stores also deliver economic benefits to the community in many cases through job creation and increased customer traffic for local merchants. Interested businesses must request by mail the application package for this competition before end of business day, Friday, May 8, 2015 and must quote the following information: RFP# 2015-123 Madawaska Request for Application Package Procurement and Contract Management, LCBO 1 Yonge Street, Suite 1404 Toronto, ON M5E 1E5 Please note: An application fee of $100 must be included with your request in order to receive an application package. Make the cheque or money order payable to the LCBO only. In order to be considered for this business opportunity, applicants must submit to LCBO Procurement and Contract Management a completed proposal in the required format before the closing date and time, Friday, May 22, 2015, 3 p.m. local time. Late submissions will not be accepted and will be returned unopened.

A pipeline across the Madawaska River and many others in the region that was to ship oil from Alberta to New Brunswick will be delayed by at least two years. TransCanada Corp. has announced it will not complete the Energy East project until at least 2020, and that it has dropped the idea of opening an export terminal in an ecologically-sensitive region of Quebec. The company was to substitute, in one of two pipe lines down the Ottawa Valley, moving natural gas to domestic customers in favour of dilbit – oil mixed with flow-assisting carcinogens – to largely export markets overseas. The $12-billion project hit a snag when the company proposed locating a terminal where endangered beluga whales could be threatened. It isn’t clear how not building a terminal will delay the project’s completion; the New Brunswick site could handle the full one-million barrels per day. Mark MacKenzie said it is likely that price volatility in the oil sector played a major role in TransCanada’s decision. The McNab-Braeside councillor has followed the issue closely and is worried construction of a new pipe under the Madawaska, along with the threat of a leak, could prove catastrophic for about one million people who get their drinking water from the nearby Ottawa River. “It doesn’t make sense to me about the terminal. They called it critical, then said it was a luxury,” MacKenzie said. “It seems much more likely it has to do with oil prices.” MacKenzie and council colleague, Heather Lang, have asked to speak on behalf of the municipality at a National Energy Board (NEB) hearing. The township recently arrived at a common position with others directly

affected, including North Bay, Temagami, and North Grenville. All have concerns related to potential groundwater contamination. However, the NEB hearing is pushed back now that TransCanada has delayed the project. MacKenzie vows to keep the pressure on. He isn’t convinced the large and ever-growing resistance to Energy East played the biggest role in the company’s decision to back off, but the former federal Green Party president said he has been a part of enough grassroots movements to know this one had an effect. “We will be keeping in touch with these municipalities to see if our voices can be joined with even larger ones as the process moves along,” he said. “There certainly was a lot of opposition I don’t think they were prepared for.” Perhaps strongest among those opposition voices were natural gas companies such as Direct Energy and Union. They were not impressed to hear the larger of two natural gas pipelines (42 inches) from western Canada was to be converted. TransCanada was proposing to open a small pipeline (24 inches) to bring natural gas from Pennsylvania to Markham and Iroquois. That would mean less supply, and preferential treatment would likely go to U.S. customers. The argument that Ontario customers faced higher natural gas prices was gaining traction.

Worthy recognition Here’s to those of you whose selfless acts are making Renfrew and area a better place to be. The recently-celebrated Volunteer Week is meant to shine the spotlight of the people who belong to service clubs or pitch in at schools, churches and a non-profit organizations. We appreciate the fact that many of you go about your work quietly and do not seek or want any recognition; it’s more of a sense of duty or a desire to give back to the community. Volunteers are needed more than ever as the economy continues to be sluggish and governments at all levels struggle with rising costs and revenue shortfalls. Service clubs have faced struggles over the years, some folding as longserving members get older and, in some cases, are forced to cut back on

the time they can provide. It can be difficult for some of these organizations to find new blood to replace retiring members. We have a lot of respect for the longtime volunteers who – year in and year out – keep getting the job done even though we know they are tired and would really like someone else to join and ensure that the tradition of serving the Renfrew and area community is passed along to the next generation. To all of you who give of your time and seek nothing in return other than the satisfaction of knowing someone is benefitting from your effort, we say thank you. We hope that others will make note of your volunteerism and develop their own tradition of serving the public in one form or another.

Company encourages recycling To the editor:

I read with interest the article that appeared in the April 23, 2015 edition of the Renfrew Mercury entitled, “The problem with plastic.” While encouraging Mercury readers to avoid polluting the world’s waterways with garbage is admirable, attempting to resolve this matter by simple reducing the consumption of bottled water greatly diminishes the impact of the message. Beyond the fact that plastic beverage containers represent less than one-half of one percent of the waste stream and dumping garbage in ocean and inland waterways has been banned in Canada since 1974, there is no scientific evidence to support some of

the claims made in the article, according to Angelicque White, an assistant professor of oceanography at Oregon State University. In a 2011 statement on the matter, Ms. White said that, “If we were to filter the surface area of the ocean equivalent to a football field in waters having the highest concentration of plastic ever recorded, the amount of plastic recovered would not even extend to the one-inch line.” Last year, more than 71 per cent of plastic beverage containers, including bottled water, were recycled across Canada.

port last October, council is making a statement to the effect that their judgment is superior to that of Calabogie voters. Voters can now rest assured that their best interests will be looked after by GM Council for the next three and a half years. Clearly, they feel that council’s secret judgments are best for Calabogie voters, whether they like it or not. It would appear that democratic principles of representative government no longer apply in Calabogie. J.P. De Grandmont Griffith

To the editor:

I see garbage mostly everywhere when I walk to school on Lorne Street. On Earth Day, I went down that road and brought a garbage bag and one of my gloves, and then I went down Lorne Street and I started picking up all the junk that other people threw on the ground. It’s not really nice for people to throw garbage on the ground. In French, my French teacher, Madame Smart, is taking about littering

at Queen Elizabeth Public School. People should stop littering because it pollutes our earth. Also, if you throw poisonous things in the ocean, a lot of fish will die. And don’t just throw old nets in the ocean or dolphins could get caught in them. Just keep your garbage with you until you see a garbage can. Then you can throw it out.

Kudos to Gail Cole for her letter to the editor of April 22. Not only do I support her, but I too have a few comments to make as well. Yes, I was going to ‘close the book’, but the so-called ‘Accelerated Expansion of Highway 17’ seems to have stalled at Scheel Drive in the Province’s five-year plan and I agree that we need to consolidate our efforts county-wide to continue the progress. This was the approach with which Renfrew County council presented its business case to the Minister in October 2013 and we have all heard assurances that the highway expansion will eventually reach Renfrew. However, with the November 2014 petition to the Premier by the Town of Petawawa to consider a plan for fourlane expansion now to commence from the upper end of the county eastward to eventually meet up with progress in the western direction, we appear maybe to be split on how best to proceed.

I don’t think it’s wise to show any ambiguity on our resolve to continue with the plan, progressing westward from Scheel Road. I think it’s a mistake to risk jeopardizing the next four-lane construction phase with a new proposal that deviates from the original plan. I am not denying for a minute that all citizens of the County of Renfrew deserve better highways, but let’s face it, the efficiency of the already understood expansion plan to fourlane Highway 417 is clear. With County Council apparently examining the ‘Petawawa approach’ in committee, it may be high time that we folks in Renfrew and area speak out loud and clear in support of staying with the plan that was submitted, with full county support, in 2013. So thank you, Gail, for bringing this potential dilemma to our attention. Now it’s time for our voice to be heard clearly at County Council in regard.

Bedlam ensues after small error made in local paper

It was unusual for Mother to be in such a hurry to get into Renfrew for our regular Saturday morning trip.  The old Model T had been packed the night before with all the things she would peddle door-todoor, and I was dressed in my nextto-Sunday best, told to hurry with my breakfast if I was to go in to town with her, and that morning, I didn’t have to help redd up the kitchen.   That job would be left to my sister Audrey.  Getting into Renfrew early was more important.   What else was unusual, was Mother’s going to the blue sugar bowl in the back-to-the-wall cupboard and pulling a hand full of change out of her egg money.   Her Saturday morning purchases were always made out of the money she got from peddling her wares door-to-door.   But that day, a handful of egg-money was crammed into her black purse.  For a few minutes, I wondered if we were running away from home! When Mother and I piled into the old car, the weekly copy of the Renfrew Mercury was on the seat beside us, and Mother kept patting it like it was made of gold.  It had been folded over and the Walker’s Store ad took up the whole page.  So that was what Mother was so excited about!

“Can’t believe it,” she kept saying all the way out the long lane to the Northcote Side Road.  And she gave the newspaper another poke with her finger.  “Just look at that Mary... Dan River cotton on sale at Walker’s Store for .7 cents a yard!   Never have I  heard of Dan River cotton on sale for such a price!” So that’s what all the excitement was about! The old Model T was fair humming all the way along the Northcote Side Road, and Mother kept saying “Please, don’t let us have a flat.”   The old car was well known for having as many as two or three flat tires banging over the washboard Northcote Side Road.  But luck was with us, and we tore into Renfrew, right down Raglan Street, with Mother looking for a place to park. “Just as I expected,” she said, chewing on her bottom lip.  The cars and buggies were lined up on both sides of the street, and crowds of women, many of them our neighbours from Northcote, were already lined up at the Walker’s Store door.  Without even asking a ‘by-your-leave’, Mother pulled into a small lane between two stores, grabbed her purse, told me to hurry, and we joined the lineup of women at the door of Walker’s Store.

Mary Cook’s Memories Mary Cook

A man, who turned out to be the manager, was beet red, and he had one of the those things to magnify his voice by shouting into it, asked for everyone’s attention. Standing beside him was another man, whose red face matched the manager’s.  “There has been a terrible mistake.  This is the person who put the ad together for the Mercury, and instead of printing 27 cents a yard for the Dan River cotton, it came out as 7 cents! The number ‘2’ was mistakenly left off, and really, the price is 27 cents, not 7!!!” Well, I thought there was going to be a riot.  Those women from Renfrew and the miles beyond were having none of that nonsense.  A woman shook her umbrella in the manager’s face, and with the sun shining and the heat of the day just beginning, I guessed she brought her umbrella ex-

pecting a riot.  “Now you know the law as well as I do, Mr. O’Kane, and you have to sell that Dan River cotton for what it was advertised.”  And with that, and using her umbrella as a prodding iron, pushed back the two men, and plowed through the door, with all of us following her inside the store. Mr. O’Kane vanished through a little door at the back of the store, slamming it shut and I could hear a lock being rammed into place, and the bedlam was left to the sole clerk who started removing the dozens of neatly folded bolts of Dan River off the shelves and pounding them down on the long counter. I was sure we would never get out of the store alive!  Whole bolts of Dan River were sold and it didn’t seem like anyone gave a hoot in Halifax for pattern or colour.   Mother grabbed a hold of a lovely mauve bolt, and one with a pale yellow plaid design, and told the sales girl she’d take the whole yardage off both.  Two women were both pulling at the same bolt, and I was sure it would just be a matter of time before the one Renfrew policeman was called to keep order. It wasn’t long before only one or two bolts of material were all that

was left on the counter.  No one was getting cuttings, everyone taking the whole bolt, which thankfully didn’t have to be measured because the original yardage tags were still attached. We headed for the car, each of us carrying one of the bolts, and I stayed in the front seat while Mother peddled her butter, eggs, sticky buns and trussed up chickens all along the back streets of the town of Renfrew.   Before the next week was over, new mauve Dan River cotton curtains hung on the kitchen window, a yellow table cloth covered the red oilcloth, and I had two blouses to wear to the Northcote School.  And there was still lots of material left for which Mother was sure to find a use.   It was my hateful brother Emerson who tried to take the shine off everything when one morning, wearing my new mauve blouse and sitting on the bench under the kitchen window at the table, he said I matched the curtains.  “All you need is a curtain rod through your hair.”  I paid him no heed.

Northern flickers seen for the first time Kay O’Gorman had a northern flicker visit their property near Cobden. She had not seen one before and was surprised that a woodpecker could have so many attractive colours. Woodpeckers are usually black, white and red or yellow. The flicker has a red nape patch, red moustache (female), a black moustache (male), a black necklace, brown wings barred with black and yellow underwing linings and finally a beige breast with brown spots. In flight, the white rump patch is very visible. Flickers seldom hammer on trees and are more likely to be found searching for ants on your lawn. Carolyn and Jan Myre saw their first a northern flicker and sent us this email. What a beautiful bird! Thanks to my birding book I was able to identify it. They call them part of the new world woodpeckers. It was digging away on the front lawn looking for bugs or ants.

Carol McCuaig writes: Hi Jim and Ila, I have gorgeous purple finches at the feeder this afternoon. What a colourful sight against today’s brooding skies. I had a flock of pine siskins last week so the Niger seed has come in handy. Swans

Productive tour

Eganville send this report. We had three swans visit for an hour Friday, April 24 on the Bonnechere River above Eganville. I will get Ryan, our son, to send pictures for you to identify. I thought they were tundra, but could be trumpeter. They are beautiful birds. Eganville people watch for the swans. Ruffed grouse

Sybil Ferguson reports: A male ruffed grouse are drumming in the bush and a pair of gray partridge returned today. Also, there is a very vocal large raven nesting on small platform near top of silo. The raven does not appreciate me working in yard and I assure you the feeling is mutual.

Betty Gauthier sent us a photo of a bird with its head protruding from a hole in a poplar tree. The picture was taken by her friend Carol Want. It took some time but the bird was finally identified as a female hooded merganser. Mergansers, common and hooded, will nest in nest boxes. Because of the large entrance hole required, the boxes are prone to attacks by raccoons. To offset these attacks, builders of the boxes will often mount them on steel posts or put a baffle around a wooden post. To improve the chances of population growth, female mergansers may have as many as 12 young. Enjoy your birding. Ila and Jim Ferguson, 5313 River Road, RR 5, Renfrew, Ont., K7V 3Z8.

Hi, Jim and Ila: We live on English Road and have a beautiful pond in front of our home. This year, just a few days ago, we had two beautiful trumpeter swans show up. They came for two mornings and we haven’t seen them since. A few weeks ago we saw an immature bald eagle on the small amount of ice that was left in one bay of the pond. Hooded mergansers and Canada geese have visited the pond as well. In the past we have had sandhill cranes and I read that one of our neighbours, Don Ring, saw them recently but we have not.

Hi, Jim and Ila: I saw a pair of wood ducks on the Grist Mill Road just outside of Eganville on Sunday afternoon. Also saw a pair of sandhill cranes on Saturday on Sammon Road near Balaclava. I was able to observe the mating ‘dance’ as the male was jumping up and down and flapping his wings. The drive home to Barrie was good for bird viewing too. Saw buffleheads and common and hooded mergansers on Head Lake and ospreys near Orillia, there were three nests all are inhabited and finally a pair of trumpeter swans on Lake Simcoe. I had a great birding weekend. Take care, Cathy Hughes.

Scouts promote Good Turn Week April 25 to May 3

Kindness begets kindness and increases feelings of happiness and health. Fostering happier and friendlier communities is the goal for Scouts Canada’s sixth annual Good Turn Week challenge April 25 to May 3.

Scouts Canada is challenging Canadians to perform a good turn for someone else, whether a neighbour, friend, family or community member. Studies have shown that performing an act of kindness has the power

to create feelings of happiness, both with the giver and recipient. The Scouts note it doesn’t take an extraordinary measure to make a positive impact. A good turn can be as simple as holding a door open for someone or

buying a coffee for the next person in line. Scouts Canada is asking Canadians of all ages to join in. All that’s required is doing a good turn for someone else and asking the recipient to pay it forward, creating

a ripple of positivity and goodwill from coast-to-coast. Scouts Canada has also challenged Scouting youth across the country to come up with their best and most significant ideas to help their community.

McNab/Braeside Township Times BBq SAFETy

Safety in your Sizzle Few things can match the fun and enjoyment of a barbecue with family and friends. Practice sensible, safe barbecuing and your spring/summer get-togethers will be a sizzling success. Season Opener At the start of the BBQ season, do this three-step safety check of your BBQ: • Clean: Use a pipe cleaner or wire to ensure burner ports are free of rust, dirt, spider webs or other debris. • Check: Examine the hose leading from the tank to the burners. Replace if cracked or damaged. • Test: Find leaks by applying a 50/50 solution of water and dish soap to propane cylinder connections and hoses. If bubbles appear, tighten the connection and/or replace the damaged parts and retest. light it Right Take these steps in the right order when igniting a BBQ: • Open the hood. • Turn gas release valve on tank. • Turn on grill controls or heat settings. • Take a step back. • Push the igniter button. If there is no igniter button, insert a long match or BBQ lighter through the side burner hole first, then turn on the heat control knob. If the burner does

not ignite right away, turn the gas off and wait five minutes, keeping the hood open, before repeating the procedure. Keep It Safe Barbecues are approved for outdoor use only. They emit carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that can lead to unconsciousness and even death, which means never barbecue in a garage, tent or other enclosed space. Propane cylinders must not be used or stored inside any structure. Do’s and Don’ts for Handling a BBQ DO... • Keep loose clothing away from a hot barbecue. • Keep children and pets at a safe distance. • Turn gas valve off first when finished, then turn off the burner controls, so no gas is left in the connecting hose. • Allow the BBQ to cool completely before closing the cover. DO nOT... • Don’t leave the BBQ unattended when in use. • Don’t allow grease to build up on the burners or at the base of the barbecue, as this could cause a grease fire • Don’t throw water on a grease fire – this will only spread the flame. • Don’t position your barbecue too close to wooden fences or walls. Make sure the area behind your BBQ is free of combustible material, since this is where hot gases escape.

Meet the cast of ‘Meet Me at the Mayfair’

Charlotte Leitch’s play revolving around a storied Arnprior dance hall and local veterans has been cast. Meet Me at the Mayfair, written by Leitch, brings back memories of the popular Mayfair Dance Hall as the Second World War comes to an end. The play, which will be performed in Arnprior on weekend of May 8, is full of laughter and joy. The play tells the stories of local veterans Nick Smith, Gerry Neumann, Harry Powell, Willard Bahm and Wilf Clouthier. Alex Staye, proprietor of the Mayfair, is also featured. His commitment to providing entertainment to the community lifted the spirits of a war-weary town. The stories of the local veterans are intertwined with fictional characters to commemorate the end of the war and exemplify the close knit nature of Arnprior’s citizens. Anda Sprudzs plays ‘Shirley’, who could be “anybody’s mother,” while Jim Hall plays her son ‘Robert’, representing “any” soldier.

Although fictional, their characters represent the fate of so many families during the war. During different scenes, the stage comes alive with music. At the end of the dance hall scene, the audience will join in the singing to the strum of Jeff Bahm’s guitar. Jeff plays the part of his father Willard, who played guitar and banjo at the Mayfair. Opening night is Friday, May 8, which is 70 years to the day that the Second World War ended. The performances will be Friday, May 8 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, May 9 at 7 p.m.; and Sunday, May 10 at 2 p.m. The play will take place at Carlton Reid Memorial Hall, connected to Emmanuel Anglican Church at 287 Harrington St. in Arnprior. Tickets cost $15 and can be bought at the church office Tuesdays and Thursdays or at Century 21 Explorer Realty at 201 Daniel St. in Arnprior any day. For more information, or to reserve tickets, call Leitch at 613-864-6910 or e-mail charlotteleitch11@gmail.com.

Volunteers honoured at Hospice Renfrew appreciation tea

Hospice Renfrew

National Volunteer Week is held every April in Canada and on April 22 Hospice Renfrew took some time to express its sincere thanks to our most valued family – our family of volunteers – at its annual Volunteer Appreciation Tea. Last year Hospice volunteers provided over 5,867 hours to enhance the care and comfort of Hospice residents and their loved ones. During the tea volunteer co-ordinator Darlene Meleskie offered special congratulations to Ruth Stiefelmeyer for her induction into the June Callwood Circle of Outstanding Volunteers at the 2015 Ontario Hospice Palliative Care Conference in Toronto. Honoured for five years of volunteer service were Mike and Sharon Gallagher, Barbara Gallagher, Cari Forteath and Ruth Stiefelmeyer. A very special guest at the tea was retired Senator Sharon Carstairs who has been a strong advocate for palliative care for many years. As Minister with Special Responsibility for Palliative Care, Carstairs authored the 2010 Senate

The Dutch forever grateful to Canada Staff

May 5 marks the 70th anniversary of Liberation of the Netherlands from German occupation during World War Two. While many Canadian veterans will be travelling to Apeldoorn for annual commemoration ceremonies, Jake Hultink hopes people will take the time to remember here at home. The 88-year-old Renfrew man says the Dutch people are forever grateful for the role Canada played in the liberation of Holland. A monument in front of Renfrew town hall, in Low Square, recognizes that contribution. In 1995 Hultink was guest speaker at Renfrew Legion Branch 148’s Remembrance Day dinner, where he shared his insight on the German occupation. Coverage of that dinner by Renfrew Mercury reporter, the late Wanda Blimkie, recounted Hultink’s story, as follows. “In the beginning, the German occupation of Holland had been slow and the loss of freedom was gradual but by 1942 the full impact of war was realized. Over 40,000 people were killed in bomb Jake Hultink with 1995 Mercury coverage of his Remembrance Day address and subsequent letter from attacks and all Jewish people had been rounded up and transported to concentraformer Liberal MP, the late Len Hopkins.

Women, some pushing baby carriages or pulling carts, regularly walked up to 150 kilometres to beg for food for their children. Underground resistance fighters were active but there would be severe retribution for residents if a railway bridge was blown up. Young girls, including Hultink’s wife Hilda, carried the war news and messages from one group to another in the resistance as all

Local performers will be playing music throughout the entire event.

radios had been seized. His memories of the German occupation of Holland, from the beginning of five years of darkness, starvation and abuses suffered by his people, to the subsequent liberation of his country, mainly by Canadian soldiers, were as clear and vivid as the morning he walked out of a bomb shelter at 7 a.m. April 17, 1945. “Everything was quiet and then I heard the sound. I still hear it today, the sound of traffic. The Canadians are coming, We are free,” Mr. Hultink recalled. And, except for Mr. Hultink’s voice at the podium and until he received a standing ovation, there wasn’t another sound in the auditorium at Renfrew Branch 148 of the Royal Canadian Legion, which was filled to capacity Saturday night. In the days after the dinner, then-Liberal MP, the late Len Hopkins, followed up Hultink’s address with a letter of high praise. “Having appeared before many audiences myself, I was particularly appreciative that you could have heard a pin drop in the Legion Hall while you were speaking. Your experience and those of your family and friends during World War II could not have been better described,” MP Hopkins wrote.

20 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, April 30, 2015

Volunteers are important throughout April and beyond Renfrew Art Guild

April is Volunteer month. The Mercury has been printing stories and events revolving around volunteers. There is not an event or happening in this area that does not rely on people stepping up to the plate, for no payment, to make sure that everything happens. It is really too bad that we don’t recognize these folk on a weekly basis, not just in the month of April. Art In The Park; this is an event that does rely on the volunteers. Whether it is the registrar or the person plotting out the field or the non-artists who give us a hand on set up, life is made easier by their presence. We are still looking for volunteers and willing to give students their hours for any assistance. We will be having the fourth annual Art in The Park in Haramis Park in Renfrew, July 11 and 12.

Over 30 artists will be showing and selling their works. Many visitors come from all over the Valley, Ottawa, Gatineau, Perth and beyond to witness the great talent that is on display. Another component is the great sponsors of the area who support us and feel that art is important. Last year Battle of the Canvas was a new venture where artists had 20 minutes to complete a painting. Everyone including the artists had a great time and the paintings were then auction off. We will see what will happen again this year. A new inter-action for visi-

tors will be a graffiti board. You, your children, friends will be given the opportunity to become street artists. Spray can in hand you can see what you can accomplish. We just want folk to have fun. Thinking ‘outside the box’ I’d say. Our Mayor Don Eady recently used that comment publicly, and we are using it as the theme for our next meeting. We are asking members to do just that, to think ‘outside the box’. Come with something that is not your style, maybe medium or just be wacky. Art should be fun so lets prove it is. We use the phrase on our stationary, Art Matters, and it does. May 5 is our next meeting at Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church Renfrew 291 Plaunt (please use the Quarry entrance) at 7 p.m. Great conversation and coffee (decaf) is complimentary. Everyone is welcome. For more information call Diana at 613-433-3635.

Through the promise of morning and the voice of the wind I will always have something to say. To reflect on those wonderful moments and Warm you as you make you way.

August 16th and 18th, 1993 Taken so suddenly with no time for goodbyes, Only the Lord knows the reasons why. But God’s gift of memory we hold onto so dear, Because in our memories you are still here. Our hearts ache to see you once more. If only you could, you’d walk through the door, We know what you’d say and that would be “Hey, what’s going on here” Cause that was usually your greeting in your silly way. We miss you so much You will always be loved and never forgotten. May you and your little ones be at peace “Duker” God Bless. Love you always, Mom and Dad (Maurice and Pierrette) Brother Rene Guylaine and Family Sister Lee Ann Richie and Family Sons Jeremy and Jesse

RCI recognized on stage at National WE Day Raider Review

A senior Renfrew Collegiate Institute student was acknowledged in front of a crowd of 16,000 students from across Ontario at National We Day on Thursday, April 1 in Ottawa. Megan Bulmer, currently in Grade 12, received the Governor General’s Caring Canadian Award for her volunteer efforts and contributions to the community. “It was almost surreal to stand in front of a group of people who share the same passion to change the world as you do,” she said. “Receiving an award for all the work that you do, over all of the other students who deserve it too, was really amazing.” Bulmer was not the only Raider to be on stage at We Day. Teacher, Michael Wright, and grade 12 student, Mitchell Hanniman, stood in front of the crowd and shared their experiences with EF tours in Kenya. “It was inspiring to be able to

speak in front of 16,000 young people who want to make a difference in the world,” said Hanniman. RCI also had 63 students in the audience who earned their way in to the celebration by supporting one local and one international cause. Their causes vary; some are members of the Interact Club, some are part of the Relay Committee, while others will be attending the 2016 Kenya trip. “It was a very impactful experience,” said Robbie Inglis, a grade 12 student at RCI. “It really was overwhelming to see the number of students that want to be the change.” The students had the pleasure of listening to a wide range of speakers from actress Marlee Matlin to author Amanda Lindhout. They also enjoyed performances from Scott Helman and Neverest. National We Day was the 50th We Day since it started in 2007. It is the last event of the Canadian portion of the 2014-2015 Empowerment Tour. It was held at the Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa.

from both sides of the school together, as RCI and RCIS students both enjoyed eating the cake. “It was really fun to see all the students’ reactions to a giant cake in the middle of the hallway,” said Faith Ebert, who helped ice the cake.

Respect in Hockey Program here for minor hockey teams in eastern Ontario Brier Dodge

peter.clark@metroland.com

A new respect in hockey program will launch next season for all minor hockey clubs who are a part of Hockey Eastern Ontario. The announcement was made at the Richcraft Sensplex on April 20 by Hockey Eastern Ontario officials and representatives from the Respect Sport Group. One parent or guardian for every player in the initiation and novice levels in Hockey Eastern Ontario clubs will be required to take the one hour, online course every year. A parent or guardian of a new registrant up to the midget level (17 year olds), will be required to take the course once. The $12 cost will fall to each individual who takes the course, unless the hockey association

bulk purchases access codes and includes these as part of the fee in registration costs. Numerous topics

The course will cover a variety of topics, ranging from injury prevention and how to have positive relationships with coaches and referees, to how to deal with abuse or harassment. Mark Allen, from Respect Sport Group, said ideally the entire family would take the course, though it’s only mandatory for one parent or guardian to take the course. It’s already mandated in many province’s hockey programs, including Manitoba, where the Respect Sport Group’s first program, one designed for coaches, first started. Coaches requested a unit be developed for parents, which was launched with Hockey Calgary.

Sport Group co-founded by ex-NHL player Kennedy

Respect Sport Group was co-founded by Sheldon Kennedy, who attended the Ottawa announcement. Kennedy is a former NHL player who was sexually abused by a junior hockey coach. He’s since become an advocate for awareness of child abuse and the psychological effects abuse can have on a person. “I remember back in 1997, and I remember the discussions,” he said, about the time period when his former hockey coach was jailed for Kennedy’s sexual assault. “I think hockey was faced with a decision to make,” Kennedy said. “What are we going to do about a situation that happened? And I saw now, there is no youth-serving organization besides Hockey Canada that

has done so much about these issues.” He said hockey isn’t a place that breeds bad people, but the rink can be a place that situations can be addressed and problems solved. “The safest place for these kids a lot of times, is in our rinks,” he said. “We need to give the adults the tools to handle these cases and situations and have these conversations when needed.” He said a child having issues at home may choose to tell a coach, manager, or teammate’s parent. “It can be a great benefit in this day and age for our kids to be great young people. And I think if that is our focus, they’ll become great hockey players,” Kennedy said. “But the focus has to shift a little bit into making sure we grow great people.”

Blok ready for new driving season

Sandra Blok

Nathan Blok, the 21-year old, two-time Formula Tour Series Champion and resident of Beachburg returns to the race track in the new revitalized Formula 2000 Canadian Championship series. The first and second round will take place this weekend (May 2 and 3) at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (formerly Mosport) at the BEMC Spring Trophy Races. Blok will be teaming up again with the championship winning team BritianWest Motorsports in car No. 88, and is looking forward to compet-

ing at this historic and prestigious track . Although he faces the daunting task of learning a new course again this year, Blok is feeling confident coming off a top-10 finish at the Toronto Indy in the highly competitive USF2000 series last year. Blok is no stranger to driving competitively in both closed and open-wheel cars on untried tracks. He has experience in a number of disciplines from Formula 1600 to Formula 2000 and Touring cars. “I am really excited to be back with Britain West Motorsports and looking forward to

getting behind the wheel of a F2000 again,” Blok said. “I am really gratefully for the continued support of Tenaquip, Aurura Tools, Zenith Safety and all my current partners as well as my new partners Aikenhead’s Drug Store and Belder Tools. “Although at this point I only have enough to do a partial season I am very excited be at the first venue. “I have had very little practice time, but last Friday showed I didn’t lose any speed since Toronto, and I am very confident and hungry for a good result this weekend,” Blok added.

KL Plumbing/Signature Styles surged in the last quarter to hand the Reunions their second loss of the year. The Reunions scored the first three baskets of the second half to overcome a 1613 deficit before the KLPSS closed out the game on a 15-3 run, for a 31-22 victory. Eight players hit the score sheet for KLPSS while Taylor Sul topped three scorers for the Reunions. McNab, Stewart & Prince and the Reunions remained deadlocked at 16 at half-time and then again at 26 at the three quarter mark. The last quarter was all Reunions as

they pulled away 32-26. Mae Donohue hit for 16 points. A switch to man-to-man defence by Frances/Lemke Co-operators caught McNab, Stewart & Prince by surprise, and helped the Co-operators overcome an early seven-point deficit. MS&P stayed within two of the Co-operators (26-24) but again couldn’t hang on down the stretch. The Co-operators prevailed 34-26. The scoring was spread out among 15 players. It was tough scoring inside as Frances/Lemke Co-operators battled to a 14-13 lead over Mid-Town Flooring at the half. It didn’t become any easier in the second half. MidTown had to gamble down the

stretch and the Co-operators pulled away 28-21. Wendy Moon’s 14 first half points, on her way to 16, was all the cushion the Co-operators needed as they coasted to a 38-23 victory over the Bananas. Cat Keoghan chipped in with 10 points. Judeline Wren and Madison Verner hit for 11 and nine points for the Bananas. McNab, Stewart & Prince broke a 13-13 deadlock to pull ahead of the Bananas 24-19. Two quick treys by Judeline Wren (on her way to 13 points) temporarily gave the Bananas the lead. MS&P didn’t let this one get away, however, and closed it out 28-25. No team is undefeated and no team remains winless.

• Just off the podium: Shanna Beauchamp, Jim Browne, LiaRae Burnett, Chase Cochrane, Seth Eady, Addison Felhaver, Noah Hogan, Brooklyn Holly, Ethan Kean, Hayden Ladouceur, Austin LeGris, Mason Schulthies, Owen Fabian, Joshua Gagnon-Klentz, Katie McLachlan, Kaleb Smith, Ian Sully and Aaron Moore. I would like to congratulate all of the athletes who participated in Milton and wish all good luck in the championship. You may see some of our athletes on May 2 as we will be having a bottle drive in Renfrew and Pembroke, in an effort to reduce the cost associated with taking about 55 athletes to the Eastern Canadian championships in Niagara Falls.

Active Transportation champions to host summit May 29 Local Active Transportation champions are hosting an Active Transportation Summit on May 29 to bring together planners, politicians, municipalities, recreation, education, health organizations, businesses and the public interested in promoting the benefits of cycling, walking, paddling and other non-motorized modes of recreation and transportation. The day will increase knowledge of the connections between active transportation and economic development, health, well-being, community development, environment and tourism. Participants will highlight and

learn from success stories in Renfrew County and elsewhere in Eastern Ontario. The County of Renfrew and the Active Transportation Working Group of the Physical Activity Network of Renfrew County (PAN-RC) are planning the Active Transportation Summit, scheduled to take place in Pembroke at Carefor, 700 Mackay St. (former Marguerite Centre) on May 29. The event is a follow-up to the Active Transportation Summit that took place last year in Almonte. Advocates and municipal planners from throughout eastern Ontario are

attending to build on existing work, compare notes, share best practises and learn from one another. “The purpose of the day is to bring together municipal leaders and planners from a number of jurisdictions, along with organizations interested in health and safety, and active community members,” said Shawna Babock, co-chair of PAN-RC and the working group. “We want participants to share their knowledge and experience supporting local cycling, walking and paddling.” The day will provide an opportunity for local people to find out about

Active Transportation resources like maps and information available to them, and for the promotion of areas in Ontario that encourge Active Transportation. “We want people to make the connection between local economic development and Active Transportation,” said Damien McCarthy, cochair of the working group and owner of the cycling store, GearHeads in Petawawa. “The potential for local tourism is significant. If this area can build awareness and a strong reputation as a cycle tourism destination. It’s a huge market.”

The summit will include lots of time for interaction, discussion and networking. “Last year at the Lanark County event, we saw the huge value of bringing people together to share expertise, passion and evidence to support Active Transportation across all sectors, and that’s exactly what we would like to do,” said Shawna Babcock. Attendance at the event costs $55, including lunch. Registration is being handled online at http://www. eventbrite.ca/e/eastern-ontario-active-transportation-summit-tickets15995091750.

Gallant seeks parents owed federal money

2015 alone, this represents potentially millions of dollars in unclaimed benefits,” Gallant said. Under the proposed enhancements to the UCCB, families would receive almost $2,000 per year for each child under 6 and $720 per year for each child aged 6 through 17. The news release explains that the new benefit amounts would be retroactive to Jan. 1, 2015 and be reflected in monthly payments to families in July 2015, and the proposed enhancements to the UCCB are expected to more than double the number of families that benefit from 1.6 million to more than 4 million. “If your family is not currently receiving the UCCB, has never received the UCCB, or has never applied for the Canada Child Tax Benefit and you still have children under 18 in your care, please go to cherylgallant.com and click on the “Help Your Children Reach for the Stars” button to learn how to apply,” the news release from MP Gallant’s office said.

There is federal taxpayer money going unclaimed, and Renfrew-NipissingPembroke MP wants to do something about it. MP Gallant is urging all parents with children under the age of 18 to ensure their eligible children are enrolled in the enhanced Universal Child Care Benefit (UCCB). “All Canadian families with children under the age of 18 can benefit from our Government’s Family Benefits package,” Gallant said in a news release. “While the government is aware of the vast majority of families who qualify for the enhanced UCCB, some families are at risk of not receiving benefits.” Gallant said the federal government is aware of about 3.8 million eligible families with children, and these families will automatically receive the enhanced UCCB or be contacted by the government to confirm their information. “However, many eligible families have not registered their children, and may miss out on receiving the UCCB unless they apply.

STA Grade 7s also asked their peers in other grades to participate and each class spent part of the day in silence. “Around the world there are those whose voices are not heard. They are the girls who are denied an education because of gender inequality, school fees or the need to stay home and care for younger siblings. They are the child labourers or the children growing up in poverty. They are the students who are bullied at your school,” said the release. “Every one of them has a voice that needs to be heard. We are taking a silent stand in solidarity with them.” See photos on page 42.

Grade 7 students at St. Thomas the Apostle recently participated in the ‘We Are Silent Day’ campaign. As a follow-up to We Day, on April 16, STA students joined youth around the world in staying silent in solidarity with children whose voices are not heard and whose rights are not upheld, whether around the world or here at home. “Every day, millions of children are silenced by exploitation, poverty and the denial of their basic rights. But we can take a stand for children everywhere,” says an STA press release. The Grade 7 students were silent for the entire school day. They collected pledges, with money going to a village in Kenya to aid with alternative income and livelihood. This money will assist the people of the village with income, which will in turn help the children of the village to have the opportunity to attend school.

Singing in harmony since 2000 is pleasurable for a group of 22 gentlemen who hail from Renfrew, Beachburg, Cobden, Pembroke, Deep River, and Ladysmith Quebec, so they have aptly named themselves The Valley Harmonizers. Under the direction of Barry Stephen, they rehearse once a week either in Renfrew or Beachburg and perform on request, usually in senior or retirement homes throughout the Valley. They have enjoyed entertaining in Renfrew, Beachburg, Barry’s Bay, Deep River, Pembroke, Cobden, Almonte, Carleton Place, Shawville and Ottawa for no cost or small donations to cover travelling expenses. In addition to the large group, they now have offshoots called the Silverlining, Goms and Sidekicks. Annually, the Harmonizers organize a show, usually in May, and present their entertainment in Beachburg and Renfrew. In 2014 they began instituting a theme, which entails appropriate music, costuming, props and decor .This occurs in the first half of their performance followed by

songs relevant to show theme. Their first theme was Western and included a jail, sheriff and songs of the old west. Prior to the show Jim Ferguson showed the talents of his square dance group. In 2015, the theme is Moments to Remember from the ‘50s and ‘60s. These performances consider your palates as the shows are performed in the Beachburg United Church and Renfrew Presbyterian Church where the ladies’ groups supply desserts, tea and coffee during the evening. Proceeds support music programs through the Valley, such as Pembroke and Renfrew Music Festivals, Opeongo Jazz Cats or any other program which could benefit. The group welcomes newcomers who like to sing harmony and can commit to one afternoon practice a week. It is a wonderful opportunity for males to get together and share their voices. If you wish to catch this spring show, it is in Beachburg United Church, Sunday, May 3 and Renfrew Presbyterian Church, Friday, May 8 . For tickets, please contact 613432-2549 before May 1.

OPP investigating area thefts Constable Tina Hunt is investigating a break, enter and theft that occurred during the afternoon of April 14 on Farewell Street in Renfrew. The victim reported their apartment was vacant for the afternoon. When they returned home they discovered a window lock broken and an Xbox 360 and several games stolen. The investigation is continuing. Charges are pending after a male was shoplifting at No Frills in Renfrew. On April 12 an off-duty officer was shopping at No Frills when they observed a male acting suspicious. He left the store with a cart full of merchandise and made no attempt to pay. Staff reviewed store security and after they investigated they reported several items had indeed been stolen. The suspect is known to the officer and an arrest warrant is being sought. A glider rocking chair was stolen from the front porch of a residence on Lynn Street in Renfrew overnight April 13. The victim has indicated there is a suspect as someone asked about the rocker when they were picking up free items at the roadside. They were told the rocker was not available, but the victim reports it was stolen overnight and a note left behind. The investigation is continuing. One male was charged with theft after filling his car with gas and refusing to pay. On April 15 at 7:10 a.m. a vehicle stopped at the No Frills gas bar on O’Brien Road in Renfrew and the male driver pumped fuel into the vehicle. There was no licence plate on the front of the vehicle and

the rear plate was covered and obscured. The attendant went outside and attempted to block the vehicle. When it was clear the driver had no intention of going inside to pay the attendant moved and the vehicle sped off. OPP officers patrolled for and located the vehicle near Arnprior. A 25-yearold man from Mansfield, Que. was released from custody on an appearance notice charged with theft under $5,000. He will appear in court in Renfrew on May 27. Constables Kyle Mask and Mark Young investigated. On April 15 shortly after 1 p.m. a male stole a laptop computer from Peter’s Computer Solutions on Madawaska Street in Arnprior. Police attended and reviewed security footage and have identified the suspect. Charges are pending. Const. Mark Young is leading the investigation. A bike was stolen from a residence on Grigg Avenue in Renfrew overnight April 15. The bike was unlocked, stored beside the garage and is described as a black BMX Solo Premium bike valued at approximately $500. Fires

Police assisted with traffic control while fire department personnel were fighting two separate fires April 16. A shed and grass fire on Thomson Road in Horton Township was quickly extinguished, and a grass fire beside Highway 17 near Scheel Drive in McNabBraeside Township resulted in OPP officers slowing traffic on Highway 17 for the safety of the firefighters.

Impaired Driver

On April 15 at 10:57 p.m. OPP officers responded to Butler Road in Admaston-Bromley Township after receiving a report of a vehicle in the ditch. Const. Kyle Mask investigated and found the male driver had been drinking. The male driver was arrested for impaired driving. Following breath tests at the detachment, a 57-year-old Renfrew man was charged with impaired driving and driving over 80 mgs. He was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew on May 27.

Text with 911 in OPP service areas

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is improving its capacity for emergency response and enhancing the safety for an important segment of the communities it serves. The OPP is now equipped to receive emergency calls for service via Text with 911 (T91-1) from people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or speech impaired (DHHSI) and for which the OPP is the Primary Public Safety Answering Point (PPSAP). T9-1-1 enables emergency communication with OPP 9-11 call takers via text message (or SMS). In order to use T9-

1-1, members of the DHHSI community must register their cell phones with their wireless carrier in advance. Some older model phones may not be compatible. Those who have more than one cell phone will need to register each phone individually. The T9-1-1 service is not intended for use by the general public. An Information Card is available on the OPP website at this address (http://www.opp. ca/ecms/index.php?id=620) and via several OPP-serviced jurisdictions. More information is also available through the Canadian Wireless Tele-

communication Association at www.cwta.ca. “The OPP is committed to increasing accessibility for persons with disabilities, and has made extensive network upgrades to be able to offer Text with 9-1-1 service in the communities we serve,” says Commissioner Vince Hawkes. “The OPP appreciates the patience of many stakeholders while we implemented the necessary changes to provide this important and innovative service,” added Chief Superintendent Rick Barnum, commander, OPP Communications and Technology Services.

RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant has identified $72.3 million for AECL and increased military spending as two of the key beneefits of last week’s budget for the riding. In a news release issued immediately after the budget, Gallant said she was pleased to confirm the Conservative Economic Action Plan 2015 proposes providing up to $72.3 million in 2015-16, on a cash basis, to Atomic Energy of Canada Limited to maintain safe and reliable operations at the Chalk River Laboratories. The release said the plan also proposes providing $23 million over four years, on a cash basis, starting this year, to upgrade the physical security of Canadian Armed Forces bases, including Garrison Petawawa. “As your local Member of Parliament, I work to bring benefits to our local riding, particularly when it comes to some of our largest employers. That is one of the many benefits of having an experienced Member of Parliament in government,” she said. “I am proud our Conservative government delivered a balanced budget with no cuts in services and no tax increases.” Mp Gallant’s news release also noted that, in addition to specific local benefits, the Economic Action Plan Federal Budget 2015 will:

Valley Heritage Radiothon raises more than $87,000 Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

The Renfrew Armouries was hopping Sunday afternoon. April 26, Valley Heritage Radio hosted the Roundup Dance to wrap up the 2015 fundraising campaign. The tally is still being finalized, said station manager Jim Long. “As of now, we’re at just over $87,000,” said Long. The total is right in line with what’s been raised other years, he added.

Fifty-fifty draws and dance proceeds still need to be added to the total. Donations and memberships make up the bulk of the funds. Always a popular event, the Roundup once again did not disappoint. “There was great dance music and great bands,” said Long. “Everybody was very happy.” The station did sign up three new lifetime members this season. One wishes to remain anonymous and the others are Keith Overton and Maude Scheel,

52 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, April 30, 2015

reported Long. Scheel is the mother of one of the station’s volunteers. Valley Heritage Radio officials are grateful to all those who support the station. “We’re extremely pleased and so thankful,” said Long. “We want to thank everyone in the valley and beyond for the support they gave us. The people never fail us.” With the station streaming online now, donations were not just limited to the Valley. “We had donations from all across Canada, the States and beyond,” said Long.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, now is a great time to take a chance and try something new. Something different may be just what you need to get back in the swing of things. TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 A big change may be looming, Taurus. Think about leaving your comfort zone and trying an adventure. You never know what the experience will bring. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 There’s a lot to accomplish right now, Gemini, but distractions seem to turn up just when you get on track. Try to keep your attention focused on the tasks at hand. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 You tend to gravitate toward leadership roles, Cancer. That can pack on the pressure, and sometimes you need a break. Choose this week to stand on the sidelines. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, even though you’re excited about a planned getaway, you’re also a little apprehensive about leaving home for long. Shake off such feelings and enjoy the time away. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, trust your own instincts when an unusual situation arises. Others will offer advice, but you will be most satisfied if you go with your gut.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, a friend reenters your life this week and you are better for it. Enjoy this rekindled friendship and set aside some time to catch up and share a few laughs. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, be alert at work this week, as a great opportunity may be coming your way and you want to be prepared. Supervisors will like that you’re on your toes. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, your excitement over an upcoming revelation has you wondering how long you can keep a secret. Hang in there a few more days, and all will work out just fine. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, it is finally time to take a well-deserved rest. Make the most of this time to get some R&R as your schedule might be hectic once more in just a few days. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, put yourself first this week, even if you have a lot of things on your plate. If you’re not at your best, you will not be able to help others, so take some time for yourself. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, an unlikely source provides all of the inspiration you need this week. Be thankful to have such a person in your life. 0430
