The race is on

Briscoe says yes in Admaston-Bromley Steve Newman, John Carter steve.newman@metroland.com

News – Waiting until the last day to enter the municipal race, Raye-Anne Briscoe has decided she’s healthy enough for another four-year term.

Four years ago she defeated former councillor Jack Kelly to remain Admaston-Bromley mayor, as she has been since 2000. This time she’ll have to defeat Kelly again and current councillor Michael Donohue.

She decided to run after getting the green light from her orthopedic surgeon, following recent left-knee replacement surgery.

“Blood is blood,” said Briscoe of her zest for politics, after filing her nomination papers Friday, Sept. 12, shortly before the 2 p.m. deadline.

Briscoe, 73, said she wouldn’t run again unless she knew she’d recover physically and mentally from the surgery.

“I feel confident that I made the right decision,” she said.

She indicated her mobility

will soon be regained and that she remains mentally sharp, and therefore ready to lead council again.

Admaston-Bromley voters will also have to vote for four councillors. There will be no acclamation for the four positions of councillor, since incumbent Dirk Rook filed last Friday to make it a five-man race.

The other candidates are incumbent Robert Dick, Bob Hall, Kevin LeGris and Mike Quilty.

MCNAB-BRAESIDE

In McNab-Braeside, two more candidates filed on deadline day.

Brian Armsden becomes the fourth candidate for deputy mayor, joining incumbent Christine Blimkie (Sauve), Coun. Brad McIlquham and Len Chapeski in the race.

Mark MacKenzie is the fifth candidate in the contest for three councillor positions.

Late rash of Horton candidates Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News – Last month there were literally no candidates in the Horton municipal election seeking to be councillors.

There are four councillors and one mayor on council, but only Margaret Whyte and Bob Kingsbury, both councillors on the present council, had entered the mayoral race.

But what a difference two weeks can make.

First, it was thought there

might be acclamations, with nominations coming in by early September from rookie candidate Lane Cleroux, former council members Bob Johnston and Dave Bennett, and incumbent Glen Campbell.

But forget about acclamations.

Now there’s a real race, with additional nominations filed by veteran but retiring trustee Marjorie Doering, as well as former candidate Dave Brown, community volunteers Tim McDonald and Ralph Mill-

Bylaw minimizes impact of lame-duck council status Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News – Provincial legislation creates lame-duck status for Ontario municipalities, to prevent any council from making outlandish or inappropriate decisions late in its term.

However, council can create bylaws that allow staff members to perform certain tasks during this lame-duck period.

The lame-duck period can extend from Nomination Day (Sept. 12) until the swearing in of the newlyelected council (no earlier than Dec. 1).

A lame-duck council bylaw really gives the outgoing council the opportunity to make sure municipal business continues, says town clerk Kim Bulmer. “And the bylaw in front of council tonight (Sept. 8) identified two main areas,

those being the hiring and dismissal of employees, and the other being the financing of a major project being undertaken by Renfrew Power Generation,� said Bulmer. “So it does allow senior management to have some authority in some cases, if actions are necessary. It ensures that business continues, as per normal, so a municipality isn’t put in a position where it cannot act in an important time or for an important decision.�

Renfrew council has passed a bylaw that delegates executive authority for decisions after final nomination day, Sept. 12.

This was passed by a vote of 5-2 at the Sept. 8 council meeting.

Opposed were councillors Jim Miller and Andrew Evans.

McNab-Braeside Continued from front

er, Horton firefighter Kirby Morrison and Jamey Larone, a current councillor who announced earlier in the summer he would not be running.

The total number of councillor candidates is now 10.

And the mayoral race is busier, too.

Activist Angela Burgess, who owns KOA Kampground, became the third mayoral candidate, as of Sept. 10.

Mayor Don Eady is not seeking re-election in Horton Township, but is running for mayor in the Town of Renfrew.

Horton’s all-candidates forum will take place at the Horton Community Centre on Wednesday, Oct. 1 from 7 to 9:30 p.m.

Also seeking election Oct. 27 are incumbent Robert Campbell, Scott Brum, Heather Lang and Lou Laventure.

Both Armsden and MacKenzie have been outspoken in their concerns about the current council’s position to break off recreation and library agreements with Arnprior.

The mayor’s race features incumbent Mary Campbell squaring off against Coun. Aldene Styles and Tom Peckett.

The two school board positions for Arnprior-McNabBraeside have also been filled

by acclamation.

Glenn Miller will be the new trustee for the Renfrew County public school board, replacing Norm Hazelwood who is retiring.

Long-time (30 years) Renfrew County Catholic School Board trustee Andy Bray returns for another term.

David Reid will serve a second term as Arnprior mayor.

When the deadline for nominations passed Friday, Reid was the only candidate for mayor. The local businessman was elected mayor in 2010 in his first try for municipal office.

Returning to join Reid for the next four years on council is incumbent Reeve Walter

Stack, who was also unopposed.

It’s a far cry from the last Arnprior election in 2010 when five candidates ran for mayor and four for reeve.

However, there will be some excitement in town Oct. 27 as nine candidates are vying for five councillor seats on council.

Former fire chief Tom Burnette became the ninth candidate as he filed less than an hour before the deadline Friday.

He joins incumbents Lyle Anderson, Lynn Grinstead, Dan Lynch and Ted Strike in the race, along with Frank Dugal, Daniel Martin, Art Smith and Doug Smith.

LeGris youngest in Admaston-Bromley race Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

Candidate Kevin LeGris when I got home and actually handed her the ($100) receipt,� he said. “It’s a thankless job.

Let’s be serious. Very seldom do people walk up to their councillor and say, hey, you’re doing a great

thanking me. “I think that is the ultimate answer why I am doing this. It feels good,� he said.

The father of four, with a ďŹ fth child on the way, has no plans of ever moving from the area.

He has worked as a nuclear operator at Chalk River for 11 years. He began the job two weeks after he got married. “I’m a huge technology junky,� LeGris says. “It’s not my plan, but I’m hoping something I can bring to the community is a little bit of a younger audience and a little more technology. “With any luck, I’ve got 30-years plus to devote to my community.�

R0012900699

News - At 33, Kevin LeGris is the youngest candidate vying for election in Admaston-Bromley Township. “I don’t know why I’m running,� he says. “I wanted to run in the last election. I chose not to. I was 29 then, and couldn’t come up with a platform to run on, and I couldn’t think of any single reason why I would want to take any of the other guys that were on council, off of council.�

On Sept. 3 he ďŹ led his nomination papers, but kept it quiet. “My wife (Crystal) didn’t even know. I just put my name in. I told her

job.�

When LeGris ďŹ led, he thought, it might be two days a month, a couple of hours every week, but after attending a council information-type seminar in Cobden Sept. 4, he found out “the 26-hours a month (estimate) compared to the four (hours) I had in mind, is quite substantial.â€?

LeGris is ready for the challenge, and getting the LeGris name back out there. His grandfather S.T.C. LeGris was wellknown, and he wants to see the name return. “I volunteered for the DACA Centre to do a youth sports club this summer. Kids started calling me coach, which felt pretty good.

News - Robert Hall was the fourth candidate to file for a position as councillor in Admaston-Bromley Township.

But it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like he hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been down this road before. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From the years 2000 to 2010, I was on Horton municipal council,â&#x20AC;? said the 50-yearold married father of two boys.

The family has since moved back to the old homestead in Admaston-Bromley, where he grew up.

Hall has spent the last four years on two committees â&#x20AC;&#x201C; adjustment and recreation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in Admaston-Bromley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;During that time, I was able to see how the township operates to a certain extent,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am quite impressed with the way the municipality works and basically conducts itself. I thought, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to be a part of that, moving forward.â&#x20AC;?

Hall doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see problems within the township, itself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the issues I see are from upper-tier governments,â&#x20AC;?

Hall said, adding heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to

Robert Hall has 10 years of municipal council experience. give his input to the mayor when they go to county council, to push back on the same issues that are affecting Admaston-Bromley.â&#x20AC;?

The OPP billing and Endangered Species Act are concerns that quickly come to mind for Hall.

A third issue lurking in the weeds right now, he said, is the idea that the City of Ottawa would like the province

to do a regional study, including Renfrew County, in terms of development.

With more layers of government rules and regulations to jump through, entrepreneurs might just say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go somewhere else,â&#x20AC;? Hall said.

Hall said the biggest issue during this past term for council was probably the drought. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought is was handled very well. They had meetings regularly with updates through the media (and) on the website,â&#x20AC;? Hall said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Admaston-Bromley was one of the hardest municipalities hit, and I think they did an absolutely great job in stickhandling their way through that.â&#x20AC;?

Hall says he would enjoy being a member of the council team in the township come Oct. 27. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think I can hit the ground running. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In terms of operating in the municipal landscape, I understand the relationship between council, the elected members, staff, volunteers, and how everybody works for the common good.â&#x20AC;?

13th to seek berth as town councillor Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mike Coulas, the 13th candidate to enter the race for a councillorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s berth on Renfrew council, hopes thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a bad omen.

Coulas, who was born in Pembroke but has lived in Renfrew virtually all his life, says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not surprised there are so many candidates in this municipal election. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In a way, it indicates that most of the ratepayers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t satisfied,â&#x20AC;? says the 57-year-old real estate agent, who owned Renfrew Chrysler until he sold the business in 2009.

Coulas thought of running four years ago, but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t because he was going to support a neighbourâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campaign. That friend planned to run, but died unexpectedly.

After entering the election race Sept. 2, Coulas says he can bring skills to a council that needs more gainfully-employed members of non-retirement age who are genuinely interested in the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future.

Those skills, he says, in-

Candidate Mike Coulas clude fiscal management. He says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also be heard expressing dissatisfaction with high water rates and rising hydro bills from Renfrew Power Generation despite constant consumption rates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need a mix (on council). We need some experienced people, but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think we need a 50-50 mix,â&#x20AC;? said

Coulas, indicating more new blood is required.

He says there also needs to be more accountability. The word on the street is the department heads are running the town, without sufficient checks and balances, says Coulas.

Meanwhile, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to see more incentives to bring industry to town with Renfrew becoming more known as a retirement town. He also applauds successful efforts to recruit more doctors to town and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;fantasticâ&#x20AC;? Renfrew Victoria Hospital, which he says is getting bigger and better.

In his own free time, Coulas enjoys boating, fishing, ATVing and music.

The married father of two adult-age children is also treasurer of the Renfrew and Area Chamber of Commerce and chairman of the St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church cemetery.

As for bringing a pool to Renfrew, he says nowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the time, but maybe in the future when Renfrew has a larger tax base.

Since the Town must access homes to test for the presence of lead, we are looking for volunteers to allow the Town of Renfrew staff access to their homes to collect samples.

There will be NO charge to the resident for the testing of the lead sample.

Each sample will total three litres in each location and the regulations obligate the town to advise tenants of the test results as soon as they are available.

The higher risk individuals affected by lead that exceeds the standards are pregnant

This testing is essential to confirm how much fire flow is available from each municipal hydrant in the distribution system.

During this time the water distribution system will experience disturbance of sediment that will cause red water in some areas. If red water is observed residents should run the cold water to drain until the water returns to a clear condition.

Experienced trustee looks for start on municipal council Steve Newman

News – Marjorie Doering has been on many municipal election ballots, but this time it’s different.

As she prepares to complete her last of 23 years as a public school board trustee, she’ll be a candidate for Horton council.

Doering isn’t a new name on that scene, though, since her husband, John, was reeve and head of council for 10 years, his last year being 2003.

“I learned a lot while John was on council,” says Doering, who used to read his monthly copies of Municipal World from cover to cover. Having lived all her married life in Horton, she and John have seven adult-age children, who each attended Horton Public School and Renfrew Collegiate Institute.

Now in her 70s, she says that’s no reason to retire from public office.

“I’ve thought about it, but I really feel I have a lot of energy. My still want to contribute to my community,” says Doering.

After deciding to leave the school board, she says she was

THE TOWNSHIP OF HORTON ALL CANDIDATES NIGHT

Horton Volunteers have organized the HORTON TOWNSHIP ALL CANDIDATES NIGHT, to be held in the Horton Community Centre, 1005 Castleford Road on Wednesday October 1st 2014, at 7:00 p.m. All electors are invited to attend and participate.

JIM MILLER FOR MAYOR Why vote Jim Miller for Mayor of Renfrew?

˛ ˛ ˛ ˛ ˛

I am willing to use my skills to partner with Renfrew stakeholders to move this town forward.

I have thirty years’ experience dealing with economic development, and believe that the residents of Renfrew deserve better fiscal management thus controlling taxes.

I will work to increase the commercial and industrial tax base which will enable necessary services, such as improved street repair.

As Mayor I would ensure that the new council does not set a budget amount and then decide how to spend it; we would see what was really needed and then find the money though a frugal budget to meet those needs.

As Mayor I would promote Renfrew by attending conferences, solicit speaking engagements in other jurisdictions provincial, national and international. I would also set up social networking to attract business.

She says she also understands that important Horton issues include tax implications in the face of infrastructure needs and the anticipated sharp rise in OPP costs.

Having a female councillor wouldn’t hurt, either, she says.

Dave Bennett hopes to use his extensive political experience to Horton council’s advantage.

News – At 272 pounds last year, Dave Bennett was struggling with everyday tasks.

But on the advice of his family doctor, he entered a weight-loss program at the Ottawa Hospital. After eating nothing but four nutritional shakes a day for three months, he lost 92 pounds. Transitioning to normal food, he continued to lose weight, and now weighs 169.

Taking no medication, his blood pressure and cholesterol count are under control. He also has almost the same energy level he had several years ago when he was a 145-pound Renfrew Collegiate Institute student nicknamed Davey Crockett.

Now 61, with about 19 years of Horton council experience, he says he’s ready to return to the political scene as a councillor.

The last Horton election wasn’t pretty for Bennett. During the mayoral race won by Don Eady, he was accused of getting preferential treatment for his company, Marshall’s Welding and Construction. In fact, he says the company performed many tasks for the township at cost or donated services.

However, he has remained active within the community.

The other nine are all males, including two incumbents and two former council members.

Alhough she’d be a rookie councillor, if elected, Doering says her experience in business, education and the health-care sector would be helpful for council.

She spent 13 years as an owner of Calabogie Lodge, 20 years as supervisor of nursing with the Renfrew and

District Health Care Unit, and has chaired contract negotiations, human resources, curriculum programming and the audit committee for the Renfrew County District School Board.

Her work has included interacting with numerous social agencies and community services.

JIM MILLER FOR MAYOR OCTOBER 27TH, 2014 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, September 18, 2014 7

OPINION

EDITORIAL

Ready, set, campaign

Opinion - Nobody’s walking away with this one.

When the nomination deadline for the Oct. 27 municipal elections passed on Friday, few council hopefuls in Renfrew and area were handed a free pass.

In the group of four municipal councils covered by The Renfrew Mercury, only Greater Madawaska Ward Two nominee Harold Murphy was uncontested.

Some interesting races lie ahead.

Renfrew has a jam-packed slate of candidates, including four men seeking the mayor’s post – Tom Anderson, Don Eady, Jim Miller and W.R. Callum Scott.

Incumbent reeve Audrey Green will be challenged by current Greater Madawaska Mayor and Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon.

And the contest for a councillor position at the council table includes 14 hopefuls with only five seats up for grabs. The candidates for council are Mila Barnamova, Doug Brookes, Mike Coulas, Robert Debeau, Andrew Evans, Donna Falcon, Arlene Jamieson, Gregory Lewis, Clint McWhirter, Zenaida Raboy, Bill Ringrose, Tim Sidney, Jeff Taylor and Kate Windle.

In neighbouring Admaston-Bromley, incumbent

mayor Raye-Anne Briscoe will be challenged by current councillor Michael Donohue and former councillor Jack Kelly.

Five men seeking one of four councillor posts are Robert Douglas Dick, Robert Hall, Kevin LeGris, Michael J. Quilty and Dirk Rook.

In Horton Township, current councillors Robert Kingsbury and Margaret Whyte join Angela Burgess in the race for mayor. Competing for four councillor positions are David M. Bennett, David Carl Brown, Glen Campbell, Lane Cleroux, Marjorie Doering, Jamey Larone, Tim McDonald, Ralph Miller, Kirby Morrison and Robert A. Johnston.

Greater Madawaska Township will see a two-way race for mayor between John Pratt and Glenda McKay; the Ward One contest for two positions includes James R. Easton, Brian Hunt, Nicole Guthrie and Donald Mercer; and David Burton, Glen MacPherson and Mark Tomlin will vie for Ward Three positions.

All-candidate meetings will focus on these fellow citizens who are ready to serve. Do your part to be an informed voter.

To the editor:

Opinion - My wife and myself have been very fortunate over the years to have seen some incredible Retro ’80s concerts from Mattawa to Franklin County, New York.

Being a huge fan of Canadian rock, I’m not sure if I’ll ever see a better show than the Kim Mitchell performance in Renfrew at the fair last Saturday night (Sept. 6).

Seeing the size of the crowd and feeling the atmosphere there made me very proud to be from Renfrew.

Come to think of it, I’ve seen Kim Mitchell, April Wine, The Kings, Glass Tiger, Big Sugar, Trooper and likely others over the years, all in Renfrew. Talk about being lucky.

Congratulations, fair board, on a great job. Kim and Peter Fredette are at the top of their game and a better performance is going to be hard to find anywhere.

Looking forward to next year already, FRANCES GRAVES PHOTO

TOWNSHIP OF MCNAB/BRAESIDE NOTICE OF APPLICATION AND PUBLIC MEETING In the matter of Sections 34 of the Planning Act, the Township of McNab/Braeside hereby gives NOTICE OF THE FOLLOWING: i) Application to amend Zoning By-law 2010-49 of the Township of McNab/Braeside. ii) A public meeting regarding an application for an amendment to Zoning By-law 2010-49 of the Township of McNab/Braeside.

Subject Lands

All lands located within the Township of McNab/Braeside that are zoned General Industrial (GM), Light Industrial (LM) and any lands within General Industrial (GM) and Light Industrial (LM) exception and holding zones. No Key Map is attached.

Public Meeting

A public meeting to inform the public of the proposed zoning amendment will be held on the 14th day of October at 5:30 p.m. at the municipal office of the Township of McNab/Braeside.

Angie, Darlene and Ric McGrath Saskatchewan

Purpose and Effect

There’s no such thing as a free lunch

The purpose of the proposed zoning by-law amendment is to address zoning provisions relating to accessory dwelling units permitted in the General Industrial (GM) Zone and the Light Industrial (LM) Zone.

Opinion - There’s no such thing as a free lunch.

Did you hear? Some really nice group of businesspeople are willing to build us a rink and we don’t have to pay to build it or run it for 25 years.

Sounds fantastic and almost as good as the free cruises I keep being called about, both of which sound far too good to be true. Wait a minute, what did my grandmother tell me about things that are too good to be true?

These type of arrangements are referred to as private/public partnerships or P3s, and politicians love them because it keeps big capital expenditures off the books, makes the bottom line look nice and provides needed services with no immediate costs. That’s how they’re sold on paper anyway, but ask taxpayers in cities and towns that are starting to see the real costs and they will have a much different take on them.

So what’s this new Campbell Rink of Dreams going to really cost us? For starters, at the presentation meeting last year we were told about the guaranteed monthly ice rental fees payable to PowerPlay Sports in the amount of $42,000 a month for 300 months (that equates to $12.6 million over the 25year-period — or $165 per year/per household). Compare this to just $50 for the previous recreation agreement the Township had with Arnprior. Furthermore, this rental fee does not factor in the loss of any property or other taxes that typically are waived in order for these P3 deals to be signed.

As with everything this council seems to do, it hasn’t educated itself;

The amendment proposes to make modifications to the zone provisions of the GM Zone and the LM Zone by removing single detached dwelling, as a permitted use, accessory to a body shop or commercial garage. It also proposes to incorporate new provisions for the permitted accessory dwelling unit in the GM and LM Zones by limiting the accessory dwelling unit to one per lot, limiting its location within the permitted main non-residential building, limiting its size and setting out parking requirements. The amendment will also clarify separation distance requirements for the units related to industrial uses. All other provisions of the Zoning By-law shall apply.

To the editor:

once again, here’s another example of an ill-informed decision being made. As an example, P3s often don’t go as planned — we don’t have to look too far to see what happens when they don’t. Both old and new P3 recreation complexes right next door in the city of Ottawa have encountered huge failures when a private company has washed its hands of things, gone bankrupt or simply needed to make more profits: the Ray Friel Recreation Complex, which was touted as a no-cost-to-taxpayers deal, has cost the city over $15 million to date; and, more recently, West Carleton’s SensPlex has Ottawa taxpayers currently now on the hook for $1.2 million per year plus a $225,000 bump to the fees being charged to the City to pad its operating reserves (in

layman’s terms they were not making enough money so they just charged the City more). For reference, this complex is the model of what’s being proposed for the Township of McNab/-raeside.

The issue here is simple: the residents of the township, who will be left holding the bag long after this council is gone, do not know any details about this deal; and, apparently, virtually no one else does either, with most staff and recreation committee members finding out about it when Mr. Firestone put up a couple of new real estate signs on an adjacent property and announced in the MLS listings that the property would be next to the new arena complex — which will be across from the municipal offices.

Dairy farmers deserve our support To the editor:

farms and 455 processors provide $16.2 billion to the GDP and provide 218,330 jobs to Canadians.

Mr. Klietsch fails to recognize the huge contribution the dairy industry provides to this country, and is under the delusion that changing this system will mean cheaper milk in the stores. The above example of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening in New Zealand proves this wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be the case.

Also forgotten in Mr. Klietschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s argument is the huge cost to the American taxpayer, in the US farm bill that gets transferred to American farmers in order to keep prices a bit lower in U.S. stores. The U.S. milk support price cost to American consumers is close to $1 billion per year. No such cost exists for Canadian consumers. When all things are considered, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foolish to think that by destroying supply management, our economy would be better, and dairy products would magically be cheaper.

Our dairy farmers are some of the most advanced, efficient and productive farmers in the world and deserve our support, not cheap attacks from people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t or choose not to see how good we actually have it here in Canada.

Respectfully, Nathan Harris Admaston-Bromley

Opinion - Re: Tariffs cause price-gouging of dairy consumers by Stefan Klietsch Sept. 11, 2014.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m writing in response to the above letter.

Mr. Klietsch is dismissive in his reply to Ms. Angela Fields defence of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dairy supply management system. She certainly raised many good points.

I doubt he is old enough to remember the turmoil in the industry, that prompted the implementation of supply management.

I suggest he do a little research on that. I would also like Mr. Klietsch to explain how the average retail price of milk in New Zealand is $1.65 per litre under a totally quota free system, where the average price the New Zealand dairy farmer receives is $0.55 per litre.

Compare that to Canada under supply management where the average retail price is $1.45 per litre, and our dairy farmers receive $0.80 per litre.

It is very clear that when supply management is scrapped as it was in New Zealand, the milk doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get cheaper to the consumer, but money transfers from the farmers to the middle man.

The dairy industry is a vital part of the Canadian economy. Here are some statistics: 12,746 dairy

Report From Parliament:

September, 2014.

GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR Canadians make countless purchases that involve measurement of the goods theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re buying â&#x20AC;&#x201C; whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gas for our cars, food for our families, or electricity for our homes.

We should be able to depend on the accuracy of those measurements, so we get what we pay for. Consumers should always be able to have confidence that what they pay reflects the advertised price and the actual quantity they purchase.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why our Conservative Government introduced and passed the Fairness at the Pumps Act, which came into force on August 1st of this year.

Our legislation imposes fines for those who, through carelessness or ill intent, sell inaccurately measured goods. To deter this behavior and give consumers confidence, these fines have been raised â&#x20AC;&#x201C; up to $10,000 for minor offences, up to $25,000 for major offences and up to $50,000 for repeat offences.

KEEPING THE PROVINCE HONEST The Fairness at the Pumps Act (FAPA) and regulations applies to electricity smart meters administered under the Electricity and Gas Inspection Act (EGIA). If a provincial utility (including crown corporations like Hydro One) are found to be in violation of the Act or regulations, Administrative Monetary Penalties (AMP) can be levied against them.

The Act also establishes regular inspections of gas pumps, retail food scales, electricity â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;smart metersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and other devices to promote accountability. The Federal Government through Measurement Canada will maintain oversight of inspections, undertaking follow-up inspections, on-site audits and enforcement when necessary.

This addresses a potentially serious situation. Government studies found that, up to 6% of the time, gas pumps do not accurately reflect the advertised price â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and the retailer benefits two thirds of the time. In the case of electricity â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;line lossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that is charged consumers, the default price always benefits Hydro One. Hydro One electricity customers in Renfrew County have been questioning the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;line lossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; calculation (in the beverage industry this is called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;spillageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;) on their electricity bills. Recently, the province shifted â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;line lossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;deliveryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; line on the bill, hiding its cost.

Now, thanks to the Ontario liberal so-called Green Energy Act, according to the Ontario Power Authority, one megawatt hour (mWh) of energy from nuclear and hydro costs $59 and $43, respectively, while that same amount of energy from solar and wind costs $504 and $108. Constituents have shown me hydro bills where they are being charged more for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;deliveryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; than actual electricity used! With Ontario electricity rates rising by almost 40% in the last 3 years, and with scheduled increases of 50% over the next 3 years, line loss charges should be dropping as consumers cannot afford to turn their lights on and use less electricity.

Please be assured that I will use all the resources of the Federal Government, including our new legislation, to promote fairness and accountability from Hydro One. Just because Hydro One is a provincially-owned utility, it is not above the law.

By holding retailers accountable, careless behaviour and malicious intent will both be deterred.

Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re driving to work, setting out on a family vacation, or turning the lights on, fairness at the pumps will help make it a little more affordable. And fair measurements in the store and your utility bill will help with grocery bills and everyday living.

Our Conservative Government will continue to stand up for hard-working Canadian families and for all consumers. Fairness, at the pump, the deli counter, heating and lighting your home and anywhere we spend our hard-earned money, is not too much to ask. We are delivering on our commitment to put consumers first.

As your Federal Member of Parliament, I am pleased to represent you on a variety of issues. Whether that issue is promoting agriculture, international trade, Canadian Unity, AECL, the military or jobs in the working forest, I am here to serve you!

Low wage Canadian workers

REFUSE

to pay

the price of

Extendicare’s U.S. losses It’s the millionaire CEO versus the $12.88/hour home support worker.

Timothy Lukenda, CEO of Extendicare, has shown little interest in budging from a five-year wage freeze for the front-line nursing and support staff at subsidiary ParaMed Home Health Care in Renfrew County. That has left 110 caregivers on strike since September 2nd.

Last year Extendicare made $16.4 net profit after taxes in Canada. Most of that profit would come from public money used to support long term and home care patients.

Those Canadian profits are shoring up Extendicare’s U.S. operations which lost $11.1 million in 2013. To add to Extendicare’s woes, it recently came to a $42.2 million settlement with the U.S. government over alleged violations of the U.S. Social Security Act. So who pays for those losses? Not Lukenda. He received $1.145 million in compensation for 2013.

He will likely be able to afford to pay his bills, especially with his family holding significant numbers of shares in Extendicare. So will other executives at Extendicare, including Canadian President Paul Tuttle ($359,293) or VP Richard Gurka ($469,693).

Life will be a lot tougher for the front line workers who do the difficult work of supporting the frail and elderly in Renfrew County.

They simply cannot afford to go back to work for what ParaMed is offering at the bargaining table. ParaMed’s home support workers are among the working poor. Their wages start at $12.88 per hour.

It is also a danger sign for Ontario’s home care system – ParaMed accounts for 15 per cent of all patient visits in the province. What starts here could soon spread to other locations in Ontario.

The Champlain CCAC is coping in the short term by re-assigning ParaMed’s clients to other health care providers. The longer 110 staff are left on the sidewalk the greater the risk that frail patients will be unable to return home from Ottawa-area hospitals.

It’s time for Ontario Health Minister Dr. Eric Hoskins to pick up the phone and have a chat with Lukenda and Tuttle.

It is also a wake-up call about what happens when decisions about our health care system are made based on profits and business decisions made in another country.

News – Renfrew is pursuing $2.5 million in provincial or federal dollars to improve its roads.

One potential grant is for about $2 million through the Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund for improvements to Veterans Memorial Boulevard.

If approved, the town would be contributing another $200,000 to the project.

The other grant application is for about $1 million through a federalprovincial Small Communities Fund (SCF), which is geared to providing more than $500 million to support municipalities with populations of less than 100,000.

BUILDING CANADA FUND

The SCF is part of the federal government’s 10-year Building Canada Fund.

Funding for these projects are one-third funding by the province, federal government and the municipality, meaning the town would have to contribute $500,000 for the $1.5 million project.

In this case, Renfrew would be seeking the funds to reconstruct Plaunt Street.

“Obviously if we’re successful with getting both grants, that would be great,” said Mayor Bill Ringrose.

“If we get one of them, not bad.”

Coun. Gail Cole asked if shaving and paving roads was considered.

It would be nice to do, but unfortunately shaving-and-paving projects don’t meet the criteria of the grant applications, said development and works director Mike Asselin.

While the town continues to hear criticism about the lack of road improvements, Asselin used the Sept.

8 council meeting to list the roads fixed in the past decade.

The roads on his list were Mutual Avenue, Prince Street, Duke Street, June Street, parts of Queen Street, parts of Barr Street, Fortington Street (later this year), Whitton Road, Bruce Street and Gillan Road (by the county), parts of Highway 60 (near Wrangler, fixed by MTO), Stewart Street and ongoing patching throughout town.

From the

MAYOR’S DESK Bill Ringrose This is a good time to speak about several issues that may be on people’s mind as we approach this Election.

Should we freeze Sewer and Water rates?

This Council did exactly that in 2010 and 2011… But that just led to even higher rates as Council had to make up for lost revenue as we tried to meet the Provincial Sustainability Requirements.

The Town’s Debt mainly from improvements to the Water and Sewer Plants has been going down from 15M$ to 12M$. That is a good news story.

Is our Fire Service too good? For decades the Town has maintained a full-time fire staff backed up by Volunteers, equipped with first class equipment…nothing has changed…

So we have tried that and it is not worth repeating.

Is someone saying that we should care less for the safety of our loved ones?

Is our Deficit/Debt too high? Councils, by law, are not permitted to run deficits, so there has never been a deficit.

I have yet to hear a single person make such a statement.

News - John Scott, an educator for 34 years and former principal at Renfrew Collegiate Institute and Madawaska Valley District High School in Barry’s Bay, has filed to succeed retiring Marjorie Doering as Renfrew County District School Board trustee.

A resident of Renfrew for 36 years, Scott filed his nomination papers Aug. 28.

“I feel knowledgeable about the demographics of rural Ontario, and specifically Renfrew County,” Scott said. He has taught at RCI, MVD and Opeongo High Schools.

He says extracurricular activities at schools should be preserved.

“I think it makes better citizens, not just better students.

It creates a better environment or climate in the school,” said Scott, whose teachings include about four years in Australia.

When he taught at RCI, the number of students actively involved in some sort of extra activity was above 80 per cent.

If elected, Scott says he will follow the path laid down by his predecessors.

“I would continue what I think is a tradition of excel-

Scott says the board must maintain quality with less. The major issue in rural Ontario is declining enrolment, which means declining funding.

“That environment dictates challenges and decisions to preserve the high quality of education that the students and parents in the county expect.”

That challenge also includes the cost of transportation, Scott adds.

Scott represented Renfrew County for nine years on the Ontario Principals’ Council, for whom he was on a number of committees dealing with educational issues.

Scott believes all students can succeed, and that the school board should do everything possible to achieve that goal. Staying in school and getting a diploma is essential, he stresses.

To maintain the high level of services provided by teachers and the board for Special Education students so they have an equal opportunity to succeed in Renfrew County schools, is also high on Scott’s list.

“Renfrew County is well known across the province for their special education services and we should strive to maintain or improve our programs.”

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; After missing a berth on Horton council in 2007 by a hair, Glen Campbell garnered the most votes of any councillor candidate in 2010.

Four years later, the 47year-old married electrician is seeking another term. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I did want to run, but I wanted to see who would come out and what they had to say. It shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a popularity contest. Change is good.â&#x20AC;?

Campbell, who works as electrical supervisor for VCI Controls in Pembroke, says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pleased there are 10 candidates for councillor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to see. It shows people care.â&#x20AC;?

After one term, he says municipal decision-making happened slower than he expected. But heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pleased with

how Horton has increased its reserves by $400,000 and lowered debt by more than $300,000 in four years. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also pleased with the volunteer-driven revitalization of the CN railway bed and the reconstruction of Pinnacle Road.

But challenges are also around the corner. He says council members need to help find suitable successors for soon-to-retire administrators Mackie McLaren and Rose Curley. Council will also require solutions for predicted sharp hikes in OPP costs, he adds.

Whatever happens in Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future, he says a desirable mainstay is familiarity with community members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You know everyone by their tractor or their vehicle,â&#x20AC;? he says of regular waves from passersby. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like that small rural feeling.â&#x20AC;?

If Campbell is returned to council, he says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll bring his experience from chairing public works and co-chairing infrastructure with Coun. Jamey Larone. The two have served as trouble-shooters for repairs at the community hall and other facilities. He has also used his background as an electrical contractor to facilitate the tendering process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope they elect a council with a bit of grit,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the next four years Glen Campbell received the most votes of any candiis going to be tough because date for Horton councillor in 2010. weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be dealing with stuff out of our hands, like the police funding model, and adminiss #HIROPRACTIC trative changes.â&#x20AC;? s #USTOM /RTHOTICS Like his namesake, Camps ,ASER 4HERAPY bell is a big fan of country music, but particularly of George No referral necessary Strait.

Man arrested after breaching probation News - Sept. 6 around 7:30 p.m. a victim reported to police that a male was following them around at the Renfrew Fair.

The male is bound by several probation orders that he should not be within 100 metres of the victim.

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Town council has awarded the contract for preparing Renfrewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Community Improvement Plan.

The contract was awarded Sept. 8 to MMM Group Ltd., whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scheduled to complete the project in the spring of 2015, following public engagement in early 2015.

A first public engagement is tentatively set for January 2015. A second public engagement would follow in February 2015 with presentation of a draft CIP. The MMM Group contract will cost $28,992.50 plus HST, but half of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cost is being covered by the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rural economic development (RED) program.

The original budget for the project was $40,000.

Renfrew received five proposals that were varied in their experience and technical content. The fees ranged from $27,334 to $32,761.

Direction for the program has been spearheaded by town planner Ivan Burton.

On various occasions, Burton has told council the intention of a CIP is to provide financial incentives for private property investment, to improve local properties. He has also indicated this has the potential to increase economic improvement.

Implementation of the local CIP would include the establishment of marketing programs, a review and approval process for CIP applications, and allocation of financial resources for approved CIPs. A survey to local businesses indicated the No. 1 priority of a local CIP should be the redevelopment of brownfields (or contaminated) areas.

With the surveyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help, the Renfrew department of development and works recommended five priorities for a local CIP: brownfields redevelopment, improvements to building façades and heritage buildings, accessibility improvements, and development of a competitive planning and development fees program.

The town considered developing a CIP after a developer asked that planning and development fees be waved for a downtown property.

Renfrew council chooses two of three solar options Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News – Renfrew council will pursue two 20-year solar projects with the Ontario Power Authority, but has rejected another that could have generated more than $4 million in net revenue.

Extensive discussion at the Sept. 8 council meeting by council members and senior staff included Mayor Bill Ringrose’s recommendation that the town not pursue the Innovation Centre contract at 1 Innovation Drive, home of the Renfrew Industrial Commission.

“To tackle the biggest one first just doesn’t seem the right way,” said Ringrose.

The mayor said it was unclear if the town would be sharing revenue from a solar project at that site with the RIC, with which the town has had an uneasy relationship of late.

That relationship, said Ringrose, “was an issue, is an issue, could be an issue, therefore I am saying, do we really want to go into that complexity?”

Development and works director Mike Asselin echoed that sentiment earlier in the meeting when he said the “relationship issues” between the RIC and the town would have to be managed if that project was pursued.

Ringrose said he was 5050 about pursuing the 66-kW solar project on the roof of

Lame-duck status Continued from 3

Miller didn’t support the clause that gives senior management authority to hire or dismiss employees.

Evans, who works as a mortgage broker, sought a ceiling of 4.75 per cent interest if Renfrew Power Generation has to seek up to $3.83 million to cover increase costs for the $23 million Thomas Low Generating Station Project. That project, which entails replacing a pair of century-old generating stations, was scheduled for completion by late

the water filtration plant that will net about $295,000 over 20 years, but very keen about the project at the Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre. That 152-kW project should generate about $712,000 in net revenue.

“They’re good projects, both from a cultural point of view and social point of view,” said Ringrose.

“They are also programs that will make money … so the town should invest that money, even if we have to borrow it, (because) we will be paid back and make a modest profit.”

The 500-kW project at 1 Innovation Drive would entail borrowing nearly $2 million for start-up and roof repairs, “at a time we’re a little uncertain how other financial stuff is going,” added Ringrose.

Furthermore, roof repairs at Innovation Centre will cost an estimated $2.5 million, and it’s uncertain who will cover those costs.

To date the town has spent about $60,000 for costs related to preparing feasibility studies and application submissions for the solar projects.

At the Sept. 8 meeting, council approved spending $990 on non-refundable security deposits for the Ma-TeWay Activity Centre and water filtration plant projects.

These deposits mark formal acceptance of those contract offers from the Ontario Power Authority.

Asselin said the Ma-TeWay project is good timing

because the activity centre’s roof requires reconstruction, and revenues will help pay for those repairs.

The roof at the water treatment plant is good for another 10 years, said Asselin.

Back in 2011 the town applied to the OPA for approval of solar projects at Ma-TeWay, the filtration plant, the Innovation Centre and the municipal hall.

But the projects weren’t considered because the OPA was heavily over-subscribed with applications.

By committing to the current two contracts, the town now proceeds with solar design, pays security deposits, prepares a request for proposal for final design and construction, and does roof rehabilitation prior to installing the solar-panel systems.

The project costs are estimated at $305,000 for the water filtration plant and $650,000 for the Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre.

In sharp contrast, the Innovation Centre project would have cost nearly $2 million plus another $2.5 million for roof repairs, and therefore require substantial borrowing, said Asselin.

Current design work will take about six months, before the OPA approves the designs.

Roof repairs and installation of the solar-panel systems will likely start next summer, meaning the two solar projects could be operational by late 2015.

2014, but could be delayed.

According to legislation, lame-duck councils are restricted, after the final nomination day, from conducting four main pieces of business.

Council cannot appoint or remove from office any officer of the municipality, or hire or dismiss municipal employees.

Also, council may not dispose of municipal property whose value exceeds $50,000, nor may council incur any expenditure or liability of more than $50,000.

Council has lame-duck status if 75 per cent of the current council are not returning as members of the next council.

In Renfrew, that is the case, since six or more members of council will not return.

The highest possible number of returnees is five, and only if incumbents Evans, Bill Ringrose and Clint McWhirter are elected councillors, Tom Anderson or Jim Miller is elected mayor, and Audrey Green returns as reeve.

The only Renfrew council member not running in the Oct. 27 election is Coun. Gail Cole.

Horton council will also have lame-duck status, since only two from the current four-member council will be elected.

Town strikes agreement with General Electric Steve Newman

News – A long-standing case of dealing with underground contamination at 550 Hall Ave. continues. But the Town of Renfrew is finally receiving some compensation for monitoring the situation for nearly two decades.

Council approved an amended indemnity agreement with General Electric at the Sept. 8 meeting of town council. The agreement will result in payment of $150,000 in the near future and a total of $550,000 by late 2016.

Renfrew has owned the property for 20 years, but officials say the town was unaware of the contamination until shortly after the land was purchased.

Treasurer Keray O’Reilly says Renfrew has spent $358,000 on legal, engineering, monitoring and survey fees since acquiring the property. General Electric has reimbursed the town with about $88,000 over the years.

Reeve Audrey Green said it was wise to approve the amended settlement, release and indemnity agreement with General Electric and move on. Council passed the indemnity agree-

ment 6-1. Coun. Andrew Evans was opposed.

“The amending agreement passed by council tonight puts in place more achievable milestones, and those milestones are the environmental steps we have to take to realize the extent of contamination and to put a game plan in place for monitoring, usually life-time monitoring,” said Renfrew clerk Kim Bulmer.

The contamination, said Bulmer, arose from previous industrial uses, perhaps as long ago as the 1950s.

Identification of the contamination resulted in the town’s long period of negotiation with General Electric to pursue financial compensation.

Regular air-quality monitoring indicates there are no respiratory issues, indicated development and works director Mike Asselin.

He also said the toxins are not in position to contaminate the Bonnechere River, about 300 metres away. Bulmer said the contamination has proven “to be deep, not moving and not a hazard to anyone occupying the property” currently occupied by Deslaurier Custom Cabinets.

Fair has a happy ending for a few Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

REIS TENDER ACCEPTED

peter.clark@metroland.com

News - There will be no Festival of the Senses in the Calabogie-Burnstown areas this year.

Calabogie and Area Business Association (CABA) president Byron Hermann notified the business community of the cancellation last week.

“There are several reasons for this,” Hermann said Sept. 9.

“The main one is the lack of persons to help with the organization of the event.

Secondly, it is increasingly difficult to get enough funding to cover the costs.

“Various organizations are still having events on this weekend (the first weekend in October) and that is great.

I hope you will all support them,” Hermann added.

“I look forward to a re-vitalization of the festival next year.”

Greater Madawaska Council has accepted the tender of $81,744.98 from H.J. Reis International Ltd. to purchase a four-wheeldrive tractor backhoe.

The backhoe that the municipality owns now is a 1996 model, and as part of the asset management plan the life expectancy for offroad equipment is 15 years, public works manager Jamie Doering said.

“Ours was 18 years old and the cost for repairs was increasing.”

Reis International’s tender was the lowest of four bids received by more than $6,000, taxes included.

The other two bids were both over $102,000.

The township was also able to trade in the 1996 backhoe.

They had estimated $90,000 for the new backhoe in the 2014 budget.

The Afelskie families were gracious hosts of the 2014 plowing match. From left are Bev, Laura (daughter of Peter and Vikki), Anna May and Sylvester, and Gerard.

Plowing match a true family effort Lucy Hass

lucy.hass@metroland.com

News - Rural traditions, and transitions, were the focus at the 2014 Renfrew County Plowing Match Saturday at the family farms of the Afelskies â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sylvester and Anna May, Gerald and Bev, and Peter and Vikki.

Early crowds gathered for a filling 4-H breakfast and toured the crating tent and antique and farm machinery displays before the 10 a.m. opening ceremonies.

Aside from plowing competitions, visitors

enjoyed performances by the Arnprior Pipe Band, The Countrymen and The Townliners.

Heavy rain hit the event but it was, nonetheless, a success.

The family-friendly, day-long event featured a variety of plowing competitions, plus a tent city with vendors, craftspeople, demonstrations, agri-business dealers, entertainment, 4-H achievement, a kids zone, trade displays and more.

See next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Renfrew Mercury for results of the 2014 plowing match and the new Queen of the Furrow.

Local hero and cancer survivor Gail Valliquette, kicked off Sunday’s walk by sharing her story of breast cancer diagnosis in 2012 and subsequent treatment.

She encouraged women to practice breast self-examination and be proactive in reporting when they suspect a problem.

R0012896177

Voters, If the facts are true a debt load of 1.4 million or 1.7 million.

The council of 4 years term should be totally ashamed. One running for the top dog another running for council. If this is the way you want things to go. Please do not vote for me. All this money spent and a no show for it, worst roads Township Ward One. We need sensible people, that have some common sense to get things done.

Renfrew and area residents joined thousands of people across Ontario for the annual Terry Fox Run Sunday from Ma-Te-Way Park.

This year $11,100 was raised, with more pledges expected to trickle in, plus corporate contributions such as Scotiabank’s commitment to pledge what their employees raised.

“We are down $6,000 from last year on run day but recognize there are many charity fundraisers in the town,” said Tanya Campbell who organizes the event with her sister Sheena Pilgrim in memory of their mother Lois Leclaire.

“Although turnout was smaller than in past years we are pleased with the day, thankful to all participants and volunteers and we are thrilled that Renfrew and area has come together, once again, to give to this worthwhile cause,” she said.

Ottawa Valley Physiotherapy staff led the participants in some stretches, and the organizers read a very special message from the Terry Fox Foundation: “On April 12, 1980, Terry wrote in his journal, ‘Today is the day it all begins.’ You can see the first page of that journal printed on the side of our 2014 t-shirt. Terry’s family wanted to share his words with Canadians as you were there with, and for, Terry from that very first day. He may have

done the running, but you made it all worth it through your giving ... of money, of encouragement, of faith in him and his cause.

“Terry filled a water jug off of the rocky shore of the Atlantic Ocean with the intention of emptying it into the Pacific Ocean at the end of his journey. It symbolized hope, determination and vision – Terry could see himself on the sandy shores on the Pacific, having fulfilled his journey. Today, that bottle unites us all from Atlantic to Pacific in the common goal of a cure for all cancers.

“Thanks to you, the Pacific gets closer every day,” the foundation wrote.

The Renfrew organizers said that, through the Terry Fox Run, local families continue Terry’s marathon, honour and celebrate their own personal heroes: “those among us and those near and dear to us who have survived, or lost, their fight to cancer.”

Local cancer survivor Gail Valliquette shared the story of her battle with breast cancer and said she supports the run because research is the key to finding a cure.

“Thank you, Gail, for sharing your story with us. Your determination and the positive outlook you’ve maintained throughout your own marathon is inspirational. Let the run begin!,” Campbell proclaimed.

Sun Life agent Jim Millar sponsored a barbecue for the walkers after the walk.

The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, September 18, 2014 27

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Renfrew-NipissingPembroke MP Cheryl Gallant says one of her first priorities when Parliament resumes for the fall session this week is the passing into law of her Private Memberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bill she maintains will help thwart foreign-funded campaigns aimed at taking away jobs under the guise of protecting the environment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My private memberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bill is all about protecting local jobs, whether they are in our world-class nuclear industry or the working forest,â&#x20AC;? Gallant said last week in a news release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All Canadians have a right to know whose voice is being heard and why when it comes to lobbying the public and government.â&#x20AC;?

Her proposed Legislation, Bill C-618, is an act to amend the reporting obligations in the Lobbying Act. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our sustainable forestry industry is under increasing

pressure from the foreign interest lobby who are funding groups in Canada to eliminate forestry jobs,â&#x20AC;? charged Gallant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their technique is twofold. First by paying for the publishing of inaccurate or misleading information about Canadian forestry practices, including fanning the flames of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;climate hysteriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, and by â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;greenmailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, which is a method used by climate extremists to extort money from companies under the pretext of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;savingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the environment. The same mis-information is then used as a fundraising tool to seek donations from an unsuspecting public. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As what has been demonstrated by the industrial wind turbine lobby in Ontario, this is all about using climate hysteria to line the pockets of a few political insiders.â&#x20AC;?

Gallant said she is particularly concerned by a foreign

article, produced by the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Big Greenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lobby in Washington, attacking Canadian silviculture methods. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In this case, the article appeared as a byline in a Canadian newspaper, where Algonquin Park was mentioned. I know that the forestry management techniques used by the Algonquin Forestry Authority based here in Pembroke are first class. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In addition to the loss of local jobs, the other losers are the Canadian consumer, who end up paying higher prices,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Foreign lobbyists would like to see less competition from Canadian forest producers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Artificial forest certification requirements, which is something foreign lobbyists are paying certain groups to demand, are just another trade barrier like the dispute over softwood lumber. We all know how harmful that dispute was

to the Canadian forestry industry,â&#x20AC;? noted Gallant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The same is true for our local world-class nuclear industry that provides thousands of local jobs and tens of thousands more jobs in the Canadian economy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People who work in our nuclear industry know the role green-house gas free nuclear power plays in climate stabilization. Instead, we have the foreign inspired so-called Ontario Green Energy Act that has led to the highest electricity prices in North America and the loss of 350,000 manufacturing jobs in this province.â&#x20AC;?

Gallant said that â&#x20AC;&#x153;energy povertyâ&#x20AC;? has now become a fact of life among seniors and others on fixed incomes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Private Memberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bill C-618 would help expose who are benefiting from such misguided policies,â&#x20AC;? she concluded.

CARD OF THANKS

CARD OF THANKS

To everyone who has supported us following our fire, we would like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation. Your many acts of kindness come as no surprise, yet continue to overwhelm us still.

Few words can fully describe the gratitude we feel for our Mississippi Mills Fire Department – an amazing team of people who worked so hard to save our house. We would like to especially thank our neighbours, friends and relatives who also helped us the day of the fire, salvaging keepsakes that would have otherwise been lost forever. Thank you to Nancy and Elwyn Ziebarth, Lana and Barry Dean, our parents Doreen & Garnie Ziebarth, along with Gwen Skebo, the Deugo family and our friends who worked alongside us to begin the process of settling in a home-for-now. To M. Sullivan & Son Restoration, a debt of gratitude for all the hours of hard work put into rebuilding our home. Their expertise and guidance is second-to-none. Thank you to our workfamilies at the Almonte General Hospital and Ottawa Valley Oxygen; and to all our young friends at Pakenham Public School and St. Joseph’s Catholic School, Arnprior. To all the community groups and churches – bless you for helping us find our way. The boys would also like to thank the Valley Garden Tractor Pullers for the extra-special Tractor Pull in Carp.

Finally, a very heartfelt thank you to Uncle Greg and Aunt Nancy Ziebarth; Nancy’s crew of sisters and friends, Mike Ryan and the Pakenham Civitan Club for planning the most wonderful night in Pakenham!

Everyone danced to favorite songs provided by the Valley’s best musicians. It was a thrill to say thank you, in person, to so many people and also recognize our hard-working firefighters.

This will be a summer we will never forget. It is only through the kindness of each of you that the sad memories are fading and being replaced with new happy ones.

Thanks again.

Cindy, Jerry, Isaiah, Jackson and Matthew Skebo.

We, the family of the late Wayne Cram wish to express our sincere thanks to all of our family, friends, co-workers and neighbours for your kindness and support during this difficult time. Special thanks to go out to my sisters, brothers and families for all their love and support, to my sister Lorraine for opening up her home to us and for the delicious supper. Many thanks for those who visited, phoned, sent texts, emails, flowers, food, sympathy cards and made donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation.

A sincere thank you to all the doctors and nurses at the Pembroke Memorial Hospital for their wonderful care and compassion.

A very special thank you to all of you who attended the wake and funeral service and for those who could not attend, we know we were in your prayers. We wish to thank Rev. John Vaudry for the visits to the hospital and for the beautiful service and also to Marie Brydges for her lovely singing of “How Great Thou Art” (Grandma Cram’s favorite song). Thank you to the pallbearers, Mike, Tim, Tyler, Adam & Nicholas. We are also very grateful to Matthew and his wonderful staff at McPhail & Perkins for their professionalism, compassion and support they gave and continue to give to our family. Thank you to Clark Smith for playing the pipes at the gravesite.

We would also like to express our sincere thanks to the Renfrew Legion Ladies Auxiliary for providing such a lovely luncheon to everyone following the funeral service.

Those we love don’t go away, They walk beside us everyday, Unseen, unheard but always near Still loved, still missed and held so dear.

Until we meet again xo With sincere thanks , Mary Lou & The Cram families

Kenneth Blair Tomalty, aged 73, passed away early in the morning on Saturday, September 6, 2014, at the Arnprior Memorial Hospital after a short battle with lung cancer.

Ken was born in Lachute, Quebec, on August 21, 1941 to Berniece Langille Tomalty and Howard Clinton Tomalty. He attended Brownsburg High School and then served in the Royal Canadian Navy for seven years.

Ken married Gail Jackson in 1967 and had two children, Stephen and Katrina. He worked for Ontario Hydro and Playtex but spent most of his career at Sandvik in Arnprior, Ontario. He loved working with his hands, whether it was repairing engines, building houses, or taking apart computers. In 1981 he opened a lawn and garden equipment business, Tomalty Sales and Service, as a hobby. He was well known for being able to repair any kind of small engine and made many friends from all over Ontario and Quebec.

Ken loved the outdoors – camping, biking, skiing, snowmobiling, and feeding the squirrels were some of his favorite activities. He also loved listening to music, especially Country and Western, and after he retired he tore up the dance floor every Friday night. During retirement he became an expert with computers, often taking them apart and rebuilding them. He enjoyed spending many hours downloading music and movies from the internet and he built an extensive collection.

Ken is survived by a son, Stephen and Tammy Tomalty, Arnprior On; a daughter, Katrina Tomalty Johnson, Canton, NY; two beautiful grandsons, Jackson Tomalty and Caleb Johnson; his loving mother, Berniece Langille Tomalty, Brownsburg Qc; a sister, Beverley Scott, Montreal Qc; two brothers, Melvin and Sandy Tomalty, Potsdam, NY, and Brent and Edith Tomalty, Windsor On; and his special friend and companion, Ina Gervais, Ottawa On. Ken was predeceased by his father, Howard Tomalty; his brother, Gordie Tomalty; and brother-in-law, Roland Scott.

A memorial service was held at J P MacKimmie Funeral Home in Lachute, Quebec, on Saturday, September 13, 2014. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.

He was a respected and dedicated employee of Arnprior Aerospace for several year, most recently supporting their plant in Mexico.

Special thanks to Dr. Christine Tai for taking great care of Max, to Kathy Fyke at CCAC for her support and to the wonderful nurses at Carefor who visited Max daily.

Successful warden’s golf tournament raises $5,100 for United Way Michael Barber

County of Renfrew

Sports - Amidst a mix of sun, brief showers and whole lot of smiles, 129 enthusiastic golfers set out to drive home the importance of giving back.

The 10th annual Warden’s Cup Invitational Golf Tournament was hosted Sept. 4 by County of Renfrew Warden Peter Emon at the Renfrew Golf Club in Horton Township.

The best-ball format shotgun start tournament featured teams from across the county and beyond for 18 holes of golf, dinner, prizes and presentations.

“I want to take an opportunity to thank each participant and every sponsor for their generosity and support with making the 10th annual tournament such a success,” said Warden Emon.

“The United Way has the ability to help all age groups, and all of our communities. They need our

support to assist, our neighbors, our families and our community.

“Fundraising events like this tournament are a real testament to the giving nature of our residents.”

Emon presented Renfrew County United Way executive

director Gail Logan and Renfrew County United Way chair Shelley Rolland-Poruks with a $5,100 cheque.

With a team score of just 60, the Horton Township team hoisted the Warden’s Cup in victory in front of an applauding crowd in the clubhouse.

“We had a very fun-filled day. We are very pleased and honoured that our Horton team could do the ‘hometown’ proud with the win this year,” Horton Mayor Don Eady said.

“Many thanks to Warden Emon for choosing the Renfrew Golf Club to host the 2014 tournament.”

The winning didn’t stop there for the Horton team, as Mayor Eady’s teammate

Richard Barr brought home the men’s longest drive prize with his 350-yard tee shot.

The tournament has raised about $40,000 over the past 10 years for various charities within Renfrew County.

Sweep and Putt Oct. 4 to get 2014 Renfrew curling season underway Andy Sklepowicz Behind the Glass

Sports - The lazy, hazy days of summer were replaced with cool, rainy days this summer and rot set in. Not into me, but it sure did hit the garden and somehow didn’t bother the weeds and only helped the grass grow faster and longer.

And amidst the mowing and moaning, I let my first deadline pass and Behind the Glass sat neglected but, for some unknown reason, my anxious editor didn’t wake me from my daydreaming, begging for that first column.

And so, my literary skills sat moribund (see Cliff, I have been increasing my vocabulary this summer, I think it means wastefully declining) for the week. Brain rot, it must have been all this rain.

DUST OFF YOUR GEAR

Now many of you (OK, one

or two) faithful readers of this column are by now wondering if curling news has now switched to geriatric current events, but I assure you that curling will once again dominate this space.

And yes, folks, it is that time of the year when you start looking for your curling gear and start that fitness program you promised yourself to faithfully do this off-season.

By now registration night has come and gone and if it was as successful as early registration, we should see a healthy increase in membership this year.

ICE READY SOON

Jim Berg has patched the brine pipes this summer and they have withstood the pressures associated with the start of putting the ice in. Daily flooding is going well and the ice will soon be ready for painting and putting the rings

42 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, September 18, 2014

and lines in.

Our new ice tech, John Wall, is overseeing the operation aided by Don Armitage and the rest of our volunteer ice crew. John comes highly regarded to us as one of the premier ice men in the country and has moved home to the Renfrew CC, having given up the big city and the Ottawa CC. Interestingly, our former ice tech, Ricky Allen, has taken on that club and we wish him luck there and thank him for his excellent service at our club.

Coming Oct. 4 is the annual Sweep and Putt, featuring nine holes of golf followed by lunch and six ends of fun curling. A fantastic supper and prizes end the evening.

Skill is optional, as Gus’s winning team demonstrated last year!

Timberwolves off to quick start with two wins Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

Sports - It was quite a weekend for the Renfrew Timberwolves.

On Friday night in the Valley Divisionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only game, the Wolves opened the 2014-15 Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League regular season with a convincing 5-1 win over the Perth Blue Wings.

On Saturday, the Wolves hosted a five-game Metro-Valley showcase, and emerged as the Valley loopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only team to win on the strength of a thrilling come-from-behind 5-4 triumph over the Metcalfe Jets.

Only the Pontiac Juniors, who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play because of the uneven number of teams in the two divisions, joined the Wolves as non-Valley losers on the day.

WOLVES 5, METCALFE 4

The Wolves overcame 2-0, and 3-2 deficits before falling

behind again, 4-3 to Metcalfe early in the third period.

But an electrifying last fiveplus minutes saw key moments leading to a Renfrew victory.

Colin Bradbury tipped home a Lyle Stressman point shot past Metcalfe goalkeeper Jean-Pascal Sabourin to tie the game 4-4 with 5:24 remaining.

Then, just seconds later, the Jetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Simon Martel was hooked after getting in behind the Renfrew defence, resulting in a penalty shot.

Wolves netminder Matt Gagne made his biggest stop of the night to prevent Metcalfe from reclaiming the lead.

On the next rush up the ice with 3:41 remaining, Stephane Pare took a Scott Conroy feed and wired a dart in off the pipe to give the Wolves their only lead of the night, and margin of victory. It was Pareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second goal of the game. Conroy on a powerplay, and Matt McIntyre had other Renfrew tallies.

Jordan Malette had two

Metcalfe markers. Scott McIlroy and Wade Cass counted singles. The Jets scored twice with the man advantage. The Wolves held a 42-33 edge in shots.

WOLVES 5, PERTH 1

The Wolves won all three meetings last year at the Perth Community Centre, and captured the Valley Division championship there in 2013.

That success in the Lanark County town continued in the form of the season-opening 51 triumph.

Stephane Pare, Lucas Gonu, Teddy Suckow, Andrew Ryan and Renfrewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jacob Collins shared goal production in a balanced attack for the Wolves.

Suckow added three assists from his blueline position, and centre Colin Bradbury two.

Only Perthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chris Smith separated netminder Matt Gagne from a shutout when he connected with the score 3-0

in the third period.

Ryan answered just 15 seconds later, and Collins a minute after that to make sure no dramatic Perth comeback was in the cards. The Wolves Discount King of Building Supplies connected twice on the powerplay.

Rare condition gets attention in Renfrew Chiari Malformation is an abnormality in the lower part of the brain called the cerebellum. The cerebellar tonsils herniate into the spinal canal, blocking fluid to the brain and causing numerous symptoms. Last Saturday, the Canadian Chiari Association (CCA) had four board members on hand to host a walk to raise awareness. From left at the walk are Linda Thacker, Cathy Crick, Jackie Recoskie and Rick Jackson. The walkers put on their rain gear and walked in the rain for the cause. The CCA is the only Canadian association with charitable status. Its founder is Janet Hussey who hosted her own walk in Whitby the weekend before. The CN Tower in Toronto, Niagara Falls, Ottawa City Hall and the Langevin Bridge in Calgary were all lit up in purple for Chiari awareness.

CHARITABLE GIVING WITH LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES - A WIN-WIN FOR BOTH FAMILY AND CHARITIES The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities.

By Shawn Ryan, CFP, TEP Partner and Senior Insurance and Estate Planner Scrivens Insurance and Financial Solutions

Life insurance is a popular, practical way to make a signiďŹ cant gift to CHEO. Your donation will be wisely administered through investments which will provide a stable source of income to CHEO for years to come.

There are three main methods you can gift life insurance: by making a bequest of the proceeds of a life insurance policy through your Will; donating the policy during your lifetime at fair market value; or by naming CHEO as beneďŹ ciary and remaining as policy owner.

Here is a scenario where a mother owns purchase a permanent life insurance policy a family business and wishes to gift the for $500,000 and donate the proceeds to shares to her adult children through a charity through her Will. provision in her Will.

The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. This should be considered in the bigger context of planned giving options available to donors both during their lifetime and at death.

46 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, September 18, 2014

Soup was a stick-to-your-ribs kind of meal Lifestyle - The big white granite pot never left the back of the Findlay Oval. It might blacken around the bottom edge, and sitting close to the reservoir, it never really got down to a boil until Mother felt it was ready to be moved closer to a front burner.

This was Mother’s soup pot.

It was as much a part of our kitchen, as the old pine table and the backto-the-wall cupboard, and the only time it left the stove was when its innards were ready for the table.

If soup ever came in tin cans, and could be bought at Briscoe’s General Store, none of that extravagance ever came through our door. Soup was just another food that could be made from what we grew on the farm, albeit mostly from leftovers from our kitchen table after a meal was over.

Pea and potato soup were never made in the big granite pot, mainly because it was already in use on the back of the Findlay Oval.

My sister Audrey called Mother’s soup pot, ‘scrap heaven’. That was because not a crumb of a leftover was ever thrown out, and these ‘scraps’ were what formed the bulk of the soup, and ‘heaven’ because the aroma’s coming from the pot, filled us with anticipation of what was in store for us when it was time to add the soup to a meal.

Of course, there were never any scraps from our dinner plates. They would be wiped clean by a crust of bread, and heaven forbid that there would be as much as a half a carrot left to be eaten on your plate! As Mother would say, if we ever wasted a morsel of food, “you are taking it right out of the mouth of a starving Armenian” who I was pretty sure lived in Arnprior!

No, the leftovers would be what was left in the bowls or on the meat platter at the end of a meal.

Now, there never was very much after our big family had attacked the table, but there was always a bit of meat, or a few vegetables, leftover gravy, all of which was put into Mother’s soup pot on the back of the cook stove.

Even bones from the roasts were simmered, and carefully scooped out just before the soup was brought to the table. Our old Collie dog, Sport, made short work of the bones out on the back stoop!

And there it simmered away, with Mother taking an occasional peek into the pot to make sure everything was well covered with water. And often she would take a teaspoon off the spoon holder on the kitchen table and dip it into the pot, blow on it to cool it down, and sip. It was then she would add another dash of salt and pepper if needed.

The pot was kept covered, but that didn’t stop the wonderful aroma to seep out and fill the kitchen.

We could smell the mixture of vegetables, the onions, and the three bay leafs ... never two leafs, always three.

Mother explained that she always used three so that she would know exactly how many to dish out and throw away when it came time to eat the soup. Although she could never give me a name, she assured me that someone from the Barr Line had choked on a bay leaf, and she wasn’t taking any chances.

Although we ate two hefty meals a day, one at noon hour and one at night, when Father was going back out to work in the fields or the barns after our supper, that’s when the soup

pot was brought to the table.

Those nights supper would mean a big bowl of soup, maybe a plate of cold headcheese, fried potatoes, enough sliced homemade bread to feed half of Renfrew County, and of course, this time of year, a platter of freshly picked tomatoes and cucumbers. That was called a light supper!

I loved those nights, because I loved Mother’s soup that had been

simmering for days on the back of the Findlay Oval.

It was always a mystery what you were spooning into your mouth the night we were served the soup. You may be able to distinguish the carrots and the onions, but by the time everything had been simmering for so long, the potatoes and parsnips were as one.

It wasn’t unusual to find a meatball, a smidgen of a pork chop, and even chunks of roast beef or the remains of a chicken leg in your soup bowl.

Whatever had been left on the table after a meal, regardless what it was, went into the soup pot.

The night we had the soup, it was a ‘stick-to-your-ribs’ kind of meal.

And when supper was over, back onto the stove went the pot. More water added, three more bay leafs, and the pot was ready and waiting for Mother’s next batch of soup.

It was recycling at its finest ... long before the term became popular.

Mother was a master at recycling, but without a doubt, her pot of ever-simmering soup on the back of the Findlay Oval was one our favourite meals back in those lean Depression years.

Canada geese are stopping to rest and feed Lifestyle - This past week Ila and I had an opportunity to see the beginning of the fall migration of Canada Geese. We were visiting Gayle and Roy Olmstead at their summer home on the Ottawa River near La Passe.

Jack and Jane Clark and Ann and Andy Humphries were among the watchers as well.

The birds began to arrive on the river in late afternoon in flocks of four or five birds but the flock sizes increased to between 300 and 400 birds by dusk. We could hear the birds but could not see them and we guesstimated that between 4,000 and 5,000 birds had arrived by dark.

Some flocks were very noisy; others had only one or two honkers. Their arrival among the birds on the water resulted in a hullabaloo of honking and splashing. The birds were coasting in very rapidly and to watch them twist and turn to slow their speed before settling on the water was a sight to see. There did not appear to be any in-flight collisions.

With new feeding programs, the expansion of cities and wildlife management practices the migration patterns are not as clearly defined as they were 20 or 30 years ago.

NORTHERN FLICKERS

Gerry and Elaine Prevost have northern flickers arriving on their lawn to feed on ants. They had not seen the birds earlier in the summer and it has only been in the past few weeks that the birds have arrived.

Flickers bob their heads up and down as they collect ants, their main food source in the fall. Flickers are the only woodpecker to feed on the open ground. Gerry said they noticed the red nape patch and the broad black necklace, the two field marks of the flicker. Male birds have a black moustache and female birds do not. A conspicuous white rump patch is visible in flight.

SALE OF LAND BY PUBLIC TENDER

PILEATED WOODPECKERS

THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF HORTON

Clarence Bos has seen and heard pileated woodpeckers calling and drumming as they claim a winter roosting and feeding territory. Survival of the birds depends on the quality of their winter territories. Food and shelter are a must and the birds will defend their chosen claim by calling and drumming and in some situations, the quarrels become vicious. Pileated woodpeckers can do a great deal of damage with their strong sharp bill.

Listen for them as fall approaches.

Take Notice that tenders are invited for the purchase of the lands described below and will be received until 3:00 p.m. local time on October 8, 2014, at the Township of Horton Municipal Office, 2253 Johnston Rd., Renfrew Ontario The tenders will then be opened in public on the same day as soon as possible after 3:00 p.m. at the Township of Horton Municipal Office, 2253 Johnston Rd., Renfrew.

IMMATURE CARDINALS

Velma Durant and Darrell and Carol Mooney have had immature cardinals at their feeders. They noted the long tail, lack of wing bars and overtones of reddish-pink on the wing and tail edges. These are the field marks of immature cardinals before they go through their one complete moult per year in late summer or early fall. The young birds are similar to the female but lack the dark bill of adults.

Roll No. 47 46 000 015 00205 0000; PIN 57283-0360(LT); Part Lot 7, Concession 1 as in HO3992 ; S/T HO5513 Horton; File No. 13-03 Minimum Tender Amount: $10,109.08 Tenders must be submitted in the prescribed form and must be accompanied by a deposit in the form of a money order or of a bank draft or cheque certified by a bank or trust corporation payable to the municipality and representing at least 20 per cent of the tender amount.

Diana Tighe sent us pictures of a male kestrel in all his glory. This bird is one of our most colourful but they seldom remain in one place long enough for us to get a good look at them. The slate-blue crown and wings, rufous back, black tail, buff underparts with heavy brown streaking and white cheeks with two vertical black streaks paint an attractive picture. The female is larger than the male with rufous upperparts, underparts and facial pattern similar to the male. Juvenile kestrels gather after they gain independence and hunt in groups where food is plentiful. Once migration begins they seem to go their separate ways as they move south. A few will stay with us for the winter but only in if the snow cover is light enough for them to find food.

Enjoy your birding. Ila and Jim Ferguson, 5313 River Road. RR 5, Renfrew, Ont., K7V 3Z8, phone 613-4322738 or email jameshf@xplornet. com

Terry Cunningham made these observations.

Hi, Jim and Ila: I have two hummingbird feeders with one bird at each feeder. They must be getting chilly at night. I am increasing the sugar content in the feeders to one cup of sugar to two cups of water. This should help them keep up their energy levels during the cool nights. Young goldfinches are being fed by the adults, they are sitting on the hollyhocks flapping their wings and the adults are feeding them hollyhock seeds.

The issue here is simple: the residents of the township, who will be left holding the bag long after this council is gone, do not know any details about this deal; and, apparently, virtually no one else does either, with most staff and recreation committee members finding out about it when Mr. Firestone put up a couple of new real estate signs on an adjacent property and announced in the MLS listings that the property would be next to the new arena complex â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which will be across from the municipal offices.

For those who may not have followed all of councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rhetoric on the recreation agreement, its primary and most frequently cited reasons for refusing to re-sign an agreement with Arnprior was the lack of transparency and accountability. What do you think happens when you enter into a P3 arrangement with private companies? You are given no information, never see their books and have ZERO oversight. Do you, a taxpayer, want to have council simply hand over a $42,000 cheque every month, rip up their tax bills and told not to worry?

As bad as all of this sounds, it gets

worse. The biggest, most important issue is that this council did not bother to inform themselves about the complete lack of a

Rural OntarioEast Active Recreation Conference Sept. 22 to 25 News - Recreation staff, community volunteers, students, committee members and those interested in physical activity and community development will meet at the Rural Ontario-East Active Recreation (ROAR) Conference in Calabogie, Ontario Sept. 22 to 25.

With most resort rooms booked and conference spaces taken, the inaugural conference is attracting delegates from across the county includ-

ing towns from Deep River in the west to Arnprior east, but also communities outside Renfrew County including Mississippi Mills, Perth, Embrun, South Dundas and even farther away such as Selwyn, Georgian Bay and Innisfil.

The goal is to unite employees, volunteers and community champions from rural towns and small cities to share concepts and ideas to overcome challenges and barriers and also to share success sto-

ries.

The week will kick off with a golf tournament sponsored

by Cimco Refrigeration, an afternoon paddle on the Madawaska River and an evening to settle in and socialize. The second day of the conference is filled with opportunities to learn and share with others connected to the industry in various ways.

Hands Fireworks, Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest fireworks company will provide a firework show in the

evening.

They will demonstrate how added effects can wow an audience. Anyone in the vicinity of Calabogie Peaks will be able to see the show which will be fired from the ski hill.

Wednesday will continue with interactive sessions and also a trade show that the public is invited to attend between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

For those wishing to try a new sport or activity, each day will have a number of options

including pickleball, dragon boat, Stand Up Paddleboarding and aquafitness.

The week is rounded out with group activities to continue the social aspect of the conference and encourage camaraderie.

Groups will try orienteering, team events and have a chance to be a kid again when RYJâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bring their inflatable games to the resort. T he entire conference will be informative, engaging and

active.

IS YOU

WINNING…

THE REALITY IS,

YOU’RE HELPING CHEO On August 4, 2013 the Laviolette family was enjoying a fun day on the water when disaster struck. Brad was tubing behind the boat when he fell off and was thrown toward the back of the boat. “He told us that he could see it all happening before him. Brad said that the propeller was coming straight for his stomach. He was strong enough to push away but the propeller hit both his legs,” says dad Rob with emotion in his voice.

Brad was wearing a wet suit which was fortunate for him as it was able to hold his legs in place. Sadly, the propeller severed both his legs and one tibia and he needed to be airlifted to CHEO. Surgeons worked hard to save his legs. He lost 80 percent of his right quadricep muscle and required intensive physiotherapy to help him heal and get mobile again.

Brad is a true superhero! He spent two and half months at CHEO and it was not an easy road but he was a fighter. He began in a wheelchair, graduated to a walker, then crutches and today is standing tall and proud walking on his own two feet unassisted. What true determination!

He’s had multiple surgeries, had a bone infection that required six months of antibiotics and yet this 17-year-old is still smiling. In a recent radio interview

Brad commented on the staff at CHEO. “Doctor Kontio, the nurses on the fifth floor and child life specialist Heather were all so great to me,” said Brad.

“I’ve been fully supported by my family as well.”

“I refer to Bradley as my superhero. His father and I are so proud of him for all he has overcome,” says mom Manon. “Our entire family has been so impressed with the staff at CHEO; from doctors to custodians.

We were informed at every step what was happening with Bradley. The compassion and understanding from all the staff was really comforting.”

The Laviolette family knows all too well that no one knows when they’ll need CHEO. By supporting the Dream of a Lifetime Lottery you make it possible for the staff at CHEO to do their job…saving the lives of children and youth. Just ask Brad.

WE ARE SO GRATEFUL TO THE TRAUMA TEAM, REHAB TEAM, AND THE FIFTH FLOOR STAFF WHO TOOK CARE OF HIM. THEY SAVED MY SON’S LIFE AND HIS LEGS!

JAIL BREAK

Metroland East Special Report

Rehab programs feel the crunch Canada’s jails are bursting at the seams. Federal and provincial correctional facilities are struggling to meet the rising intake of inmates, the result of federal government toughon-crime legislation. A Metroland East special report shows rehabilitation and treatment programs have taken a backseat to the push for prison expansion. In the first of a fourpart series, we look at how prisoners are struggling to find employment and addiction-treatment support.

Brier Dodge and Jennifer McIntosh

T

he first time Dan Parlow went to jail, he was 16 years old.

“I was a boy, going to a man’s prison,” said Parlow, who was convicted of robbery and served time at the Guelph Correctional Institute.

Instead of being rehabilitated, Parlow said he felt like he was sent to a university of crime.

Over the last three decades, Parlow, 49, has served time at four federal penitentiaries, provincial jails, and has stayed at several halfway houses.

“A lot of it was robbery or assaultrelated – some firearms stuff,” he said.

But he said some of the circumstances in his early life led him down that path.

Parlow, originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., said he grew up in a tumultuous home environment.

His father left when he was five years old, leaving the kids with his alcoholic mother.

Parlow said he was physically, emotionally and sexually abused both in the home and after he entered the foster-care system. He committed robbery at the age of 16 after leaving foster care and finding himself homeless.

“All these things were precursors to the life I would lead later,” he said.

He started using substances to help him cope: first alcohol, and eventually heroin.

Once an offender enters the system, the first conviction will often echo through the rest of their life.

Parlow has been out of jail on his statutory release since July 2013 – his longest stretch of parole in a long time.

He currently lives at the Ottawa Mission and is participating in its Lifehouse drug-treatment program and is studying criminology at Carle-

JIM HAVEY / ALAMY/GETSTOCK

The number of inmates in federal prisons is at an all-time high with more than 15,000 this year. Between 2003 and 2013, the federal prison population has risen by 16.5 per cent, close to 2,100 inmates. Critics blame the jump on mandatory sentencing and the federal government’s Truth in Sentencing Act, which eliminated the two-for-one credit for time served before conviction.

Part 1: A look at the trickle-down effect from Canada’s new tough-on-crime laws on prisoners seeking rehabilitation support. ton University.

The federal government’s “toughon-crime” legislation, which pushes mandatory minimum sentencing and stiffer punishments, doesn’t help deal with the root issues of crime or why parolees reoffend, Parlow said.

“There’s a moral panic going on,” Parlow said. “Crime rates have been on the decline since the ’60s, but there’s still bottlenecking in the system and a real tough-on-crime attitude.”

Offenders face large barriers in turning their lives around in prison due to a lack of programming – including drug and alcohol rehabilitation – in both jail and the community,

60 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, September 18, 2014

said Parlow.

His experience isn’t unique.

According to the annual federal prison ombudsman’s 2011-12 report, almost two-thirds of federal offenders reported being under the influence of drugs or alcohol when they committed the crime for which they were incarcerated. Four out of five offenders come to jail with a history of substance abuse.

Parlow said inmates’ reduced access to rehabilitative programs can be linked to overcrowding.

CROWDED SPACES

Over the past decade, Ontario pris-

ons have seen a large increase in the number of inmates.

Federal penitentiaries, which take in prisoners serving sentences two years or longer, have seen incarcerated populations increase by 2,100 inmates, or 16.5 per cent, from 2003 to 2013.

Meanwhile, provincial jails are experiencing explosive growth in the number of inmates remanded in custody, while awaiting trial or bail hearing.

On any given day in 2012-13, 25,208 people were detained in Canada’s provincial and territorial jails according to Set up to Fail: Bail and the Revolving Door of Pre-trial Detention, a report released in July 2014 by the Canadian Civil Liberties Association and Education Trust.

More than half of those inmates were awaiting trial or a bail hearing.

Canada’s remand rate has tripled over the past three decades – but this is not the result of a rise in the nation’s crime rate, which has been falling for the past two decades.

Aaron Doyle, a criminology professor at Carleton University, has spent the past year studying overcrowding

conditions at the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre.

The centre has been overcrowded for years, with three and sometimes four inmates living in cells designed for one or two, he said.

“Two-thirds to three-quarters of the prisoners in the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre are on remand, which means they’re just awaiting their day in court – they actually haven’t been convicted of anything,” said Doyle, a founding member of the Criminalization and Punishment Education Project, made up of faculty and students from Carleton and the University of Ottawa.

Meanwhile, they’re getting very little in the way of programming because of overcrowding, he said.

“Some of them are in and out of court 10 times and will spend months and over a year in there just waiting to get their case settled,” said Doyle.

The project is planning to release a report about conditions at the Ottawa detention centre this fall.

At the federal level, Correctional Service Canada spends approximately three per cent of its $2.5-billion annual budget on core rehabilitative programs, such as anger management and programs for substance abuse and sexual offenders.

Federal inmates have access to a variety of substance-abuse programs, including coping strategies for offenders undergoing methadone treatment, and national substance-abuse programs.

Most penitentiaries offer Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous groups, Véronique Rioux, a spokeswoman for Correctional Service Canada, said in an email.

“Overall research shows that offenders who complete CSC’s substance-abuse programs are significantly less likely to return to custody with new offences and less likely to return with new violent offences,” she said.

“Over the past five to 10 years, programs and services have not been reduced, but rather improved to ensure that they are continuously targeting the specific needs of inmates,” she said.

Brent Ross, spokesman for Ontario’s Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, said $24 million is spent annually on skilldevelopment and rehabilitation programs, which have reduced recidivism rates for the inmates who participate.

Metroland East Special Report

“These people talk a big game about these programs, but they don’t work,” said Jody Faucher, who is currently incarcerated at the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre awaiting trial on fraud charges.

Faucher has a rap sheet “at least 11 pages long,” and has faced 150 charges – mostly fraud-related – throughout his life since he first landed in jail at the age of 15.

Faucher has been conning people for decades to pay for his cocaine addiction. Now, at the age of 44, he’s decided to seek help to get himself clean and back on the right path.

Given a choice between an early release and probation or a lengthier commitment to a drug-treatment program, he said he would opt for treatment.

When he last appeared in court, Faucher said he asked to go to a 26 week drug-treatment program.

But his request was denied because a judge ruled Faucher wouldn’t be sufficiently monitored and may return to criminal activities if given pay phone access, as he in the past has used phone scams to con jewellery stores out of thousands of dollars.

“I know I have a chance. I have a brain, I have a future,” said Faucher. “I’m asking for help, I don’t understand why I can’t have help.”

He’s had periods of sobriety before, but he said his emotional struggles led him back to using drugs.

“I was strung out on cocaine, my son died, I got served with divorce papers,” he said.

Faucher has been in and out of the Innes Road jail more times than he can count, but he said treatment programs are limited. Wait lists are long, and with every repeat visit he says he sees resources shrink and programs disappear. Sporadic Alcoholics Anonymous meetings do little, he said.

Because of his consistent reappearance at the jail, Faucher said he thinks the system has given up on him.

“I want to clear up my demons.

The drugs, the criminal thinking, the death of my son,” he said. “I think the chances are high I’ll end up back here if I don’t get help.”

According to the Ontario Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, 52 per cent of the province’s current 61,303 inmates, both in custody and under community supervision will reoffend within two years of being released.

Often inmates can continue to

The federal prisons ombudsman’s report says the presence of homemade alcohol and illicit drugs in federal prisons are still a major safety and security challenge, despite the zero-tolerance stance taken by Correctional Service Canada.

The federal department’s budget for substance-abuse programming fell from $11.6 million in 2011-12 to $9.6 million in 2012-13.

REHAB PROGRAMS NEED

Critics say rehabilitation has taken a backseat to mandatory minimum sentencing and that the corrections system is doing less and less correcting.

Rebecca Jesseman, research and policy analyst for the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse, said the majority of offenders are currently actively using or have a history of substance abuse. She said offenders often have complex needs regarding resources, but policy can fall victim to ideology.

“Not-for-profits that offer services are struggling for funding,” Jesseman said. “Offenders with addictions issues are dealing with a double stigma. There’s a fear of crime in our society and people still feel like substance abuse is a choice you make.”

Jesseman said overcrowding in jails means dwindling programming space and an increased demand on staff.

“Mandatory minimums and stricter conditions on parole eligibility have an impact at all levels,” she said.

Once offenders are released they need the tools to comply with their conditions, she said.

“There needs to be a formal period of treatment, not just setting a condition, that sets people up to fail,” she said. “Giving people the

tools they need and addressing the risk factors is important.”

Private programs, such as those run by the Ottawa Mission, have emerged as some of the only options for rehabilitative programs and services following cuts to programs and services in jails.

“And all of this is happening while the prison population itself is growing,” said Howard Sapers, the federal prisons ombudsman. “So it’s a bit of a double-whammy.”

Karen White-Jones, manager of addiction services at the Ottawa Mission, said many of their clients are former prison inmates.

The Mission currently operates a day program, a dry wing, a stabilization program and the Lifehouse residential program to help former offenders.

“We have a lot of former inmates in the day program, because of the lack of affordable housing.

A lot of guys getting discharged from jail end up in the shelter and hear about the day program.”

The day program is a drop-in clinic; the dry wing offers a place to stay with other people trying to get clean. The stabilization program offers detoxification treatment that typically lasts 30 days. The Lifehouse program, which Parlow is currently attending, is five months long and offers housing to help clients with reintegration.

“People leaving jails or prisons may have been abstinent or modified their use, but they haven’t learned the skills to maintain that,” White-Jones said.

And parolees are displaced, often fearful of how they’ll function in the real world, she said.

“A lot of people who have been institutionalized long-term have real fear,” White-Jones said. “They might be doing well on their addiction or anger management, but there’s still a lot they don’t know about day-to-day life.”

White-Jones said every program at the Mission has a wait list.

“As soon as a bed empties, there’s someone to fill it,” she said.

The popularity of these programs isn’t surprising to WhiteJones, who said a lot of organizations are struggling to fill the need with limited resources.

Prison employment and education programs have also been underfunded and post-secondary education is next to impossible with no Internet access, according to many critics of federal corrections system.

In 2009, the federal government announced a plan to eliminate six prison farms, a program that of-

fered employment and life skills.

CORCAN, a prison work program provided by Correctional Service Canada, employs inmates around the country in industrialbased jobs, but the positions are few and far between, said Sapers in his recent annual report.

“When I visit an institution, typically I’ll see maybe half a dozen guys in the yard with a broom all sweeping the same area of the yard because it’s the only employment that they have,” Sapers said.

“It’s not very meaningful employment.”

Without the proper treatment or programs, it’s normal to see offenders cycle through the jail several times without receiving any rehabilitation programs, said Denis Collin, Ontario Public Service Employees Union local unit president for the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre.

“Mandatory minimums and stricter conditions on parole eligibility have an impact on all levels.”

BY THE NUMBERS $630M The amount of money the federal government has earmarked to create 2,700 new federal jail cells by 2015 in response to overcrowding concerns.

$2M The amount cut from Correctional Service Canada’s substance-abuse program for federal offenders from 2009-13.

80% The number of offenders who arrive in jail with a history of substance abuse.

REBECCA JESSEMAN, ANALYST, CANADIAN CENTRE ON SUBSTANCE ABUSE

Collin has worked as a correctional officer for 13 years, including the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre and the former Rideau Correctional Treatment Centre.

The treatment centre had programs, ranging from workshops to a working farm.

“You had all sorts of programs, where at least when the offender would be coming out and had served their time, you would give them hope and some sort of option or direction to have some options once they leave,” he said. “And the word “corrections” is exactly that.

It’s meant to correct behaviour and meant to try and give people some resources to move their life forward.”

55% The percentage of Ontario’s incarcerated population who are legally innocent, who are detained in provincial or territorial jails awaiting trial or a bail hearing.

52% The percentage of Ontario’s 61,303 offenders who will commit another crime within the first two years of release according to Ontario Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services.

With files from Blair Edwards and Erin McCracken

Next week Part two explores the potential impact of impending funding cuts by the federal government to a volunteer-based program that has successfully helped high-risk sex offenders reintegrate in society and is emulated by nations around the world.

3% The percentage of Correctional Service Canada’s $2.5-billion budget spent on core rehabilitative programs for federal offenders such as violentoffender and substance-abuse programs.

News - Duck hunters and anglers should take extra care in making sure they have all the proper boating safety equipment plus extra survival gear.

Everyone needs to remember that lifejackets and other safety equipment are still required at all times when boating. More clothes and equipment in boats make it all that much more important to remember to have a lifejacket that will fit over heavy clothing or better yet, wear a floater jacket or survival suit. Always tell someone where you will be going and when you are expected to be home.

If you are going to be out before sunrise or after sunset make sure you have proper navigation lights as required by the Canada Shipping Act. Remember: everyone requires proof of competency on board all motorized boats.

End of Summer Car Show for Dad cut short by rain lucy.hass@metroland.com

Chrome and hubcaps, wheels and windshields – the 10th annual Summer’s End Car Show and Swap Meet for Dad was a carlover’s paradise.

Heavy rain shortened the show, but prostate cancer research was still the winner as money raised is directed to the worthy effort to find a cure.

Organizer Ray Beimers welcomed the gathering.

“Electric guitars and rain don’t really go so good, eh,” he joked as he announced that live entertainment by Fifth Street had to be cancelled because of the rain.

“I do want to thank all of you who are here for coming this morning and braving the elements and supporting our show.

“It is very, very much appreciated; certainly appreciated on the great days but even on a day like today when it is cold and windy, to have you folks show up, we really appreciate you coming and adding to the success of our show,” he said.

There was a special thank-you for the ‘big rigs’ display from Frank’s Heavy Towing in Ottawa.

Beimers launched the popular fall fundraiser 10 years ago and his pas-

sion for the day has never waned, even through his own family’s challenges with cancer.

The show urged people to “show off your toy in support of prostate cancer research.”

The event was sponsored by NAPA Auto Parts.

There were people’s choice trophies, dash plaques and door prizes.

This year’s winners were: • People’s choice sponsored by Dave’s Automotive - Lindsay Gibbons of Burnstown - 1935 Buick • People’s choice sponsored by Jim New Preowned - Paul Babin of Renfrew - 1957 Chev • People’s choice sponsored by Renfrew NAPA - Ken Cruickshank of Haleys - 1956 Ford • People’s choice sponsored by GF Heating and A/C - Bill Selles of Pembroke - 1951 Chev • People’s choice sponsored by Glen’s Automotive - Debbie Fiebig of Renfrew - 1932 Chev • People’s choice sponsored by Joe Pierunek in memory of Brian Pierunek - Bruce Pixley of Renfrew - 1973 ‘Cuda • People’s choice sponsored by Sun Life Financial/David Lee - Eric Dagg of Cobden - 1960 Starliner.

The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, September 18, 2014 65

GRAND ROUNDS Vibrant local health care and healthy community go hand in hand RVH is already the largest employer in the area, with an operating budget of $40 million annually—80% of which goes directly to salaries of the nearly 500 employees including physicians. That translates to $32 million back into Renfrew County’s economy for housing, food, supplies, goods and services.

RVH also understands the value and long-reaching effects of offering opportunities to local contractors.

The ongoing economic impact of Renfrew Victoria Hospital is significant to our region. The spin-offs are compounded as the hospital undertakes the largest expansion in its history to meet the care needs of our community.

A modern facility with up-to-date equipment helps to attract new business and physicians who, in turn, hire staff and buy homes in the area.

In the same manner that residents turn to the medical professionals at RVH for care and support, local businesses benefit from the support of the hospital, its physicians and staff.

Hoffman documentary brings life to love story and dementia Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland. com

Community – Love doesn’t stop when you get old, nor does it stop when you have dementia.

That’s the resonating theme of a recent documentary – Last Dance in Buttonville –that makes its Renfrew County public debut at the Valley Docfest in Pembroke’s Festival Hall.

The documentary, which was nominated at last year’s Red Dirt International Film Festival in Oklahoma for best sound track and best editing, was also shown earlier this summer at a June conference of hospital auxiliary members.

But this will be its

public debut in Renfrew County, with its showing Friday, Sept.

26, at 7:30 p.m. The showing will be followed with questions from the floor for a panel consisting of director Ben Hoffman of Foymount, Tracey Liebig with the Renfrew County chapter of the Alzheimer’s Society, physician Bruce Harris of Barry’s Bay and Ann Hoffman, one of the daughters of the main characters in Last Dance in Buttonville.

The main characters are Ben’s parent-in-laws, Stan and Margaret Suter of Barry’s Bay. Stan died in 2012, but Margaret, 92, remains a resident of the Valley Manor in the Renfrew County town.

A few years ago, Stan was looking after his wife, who was afflicted with Alzheimer disease, in their home on the shores of Kamaniskeg Lake. Later she was moved into the long-term care home in Valley Manor, only for Stan to be diagnosed shortly afterwards with two forms of dementia – Alzheimer’s as well as a vascular form.

As a result, he ended up living in another facility in Barry’s Bay. By this time, he had lost his driver’s licence, so he travelled on foot for daily visits to his wife more than a kilometre away.

Thus the story continues of the loving couple whose love had blossomed many years earlier at dances

in Buttonville, a community just north of Toronto.

Hoffman, who grew up in Pembroke but now travels around Canada and to overseas destinations as a peace negotiator, says it wasn’t always peaceful with his father-in-law. They didn’t always see eye to eye, but they grew on each other over the years, and Hoffman found himself shedding many a tear while making the 37minute documentary on his parent-in-laws.

“Oh gosh, I cried a lot in the editing,” he recalls.

He had produced a few movies a few years ago for justicerelated causes.

But making this movie was a different

experience, especially because he got to tell a story of what he considers an extraordinary happening – two people suffering from dementia who were still able to continue to express their love for each other, and maintain their dignity despite huge physical and mental challenges.

After getting permission from their children, Hoffman says he directed the film that isn’t so much

about Alzheimer’s as it is a love story in the contest of Alzheimer’s and huge challenges.

Contributors to the final product include editor and nephew Kevin Hoffman of North Bay; and narrator Peter Sattelberger of La Passe.

Another important contributor is Toronto resident Kate Macdonald, the daughter of a friend who sings the powerful Damita Jo song, I’ll Save the Last Dance for You.

That song stayed with the couple for years after hearing Damita Jo perform it in Toronto.

That Dance in Buttonville takes place on day two of the Valley Docfest. Opening night is Thursday, Sept. 25, with The General Racing.

Hoffman’s film is followed by both Burt’s Buzz and Facing the Cage: The Bruce Cockburn Story on Sept. 27.

Sunday’s schedule

features Flip Flop and Fly: 40 years of Downschild Blues Band and King for a Day. The festival continues Sept. 29 through Oct. 1 with four more documentaries.

Tickets are $10 per show or $50 for a festival pass. For tickets, visit www.festhall. com or call 613-7352182 Tuesday through Friday from 1 to 6 p.m.

Documentary descriptions are available on the website.
