Mayor asks, how can we help you? News - Following is the inaugural address by Renfrew Mayor Don Eady, presented at council’s Dec. 10 inaugural meeting. Mayor Don Eady
Ladies and gentlemen, council members and staff: Welcome and thank you to everyone for taking the time to be here this evening. Renfrew is a strong, vibrant, proud community. My goal is to make our town even stronger, more vibrant, a place where we are very proud to live, work, shop and do business. For Renfrew to prosper, we need to control our tax and water rates, and we need improve our infrastructure. In order to do this, we must make our town grow.
Becoming a bedroom community to Ottawa is NOT the answer. We must find a way to create new business, new jobs which will create new revenue. In order to achieve our goals, we must have leadership. Your town council and staff are a very important part of a leadership model. I believe that true leadership comes from within our community. If we work together in a co-operative and positive way, very good things will happen in Renfrew. Let me give you a few examples where positives and leadership go hand in hand: our history, our main street, our BIA, our Chamber of Commerce, our Renfrew Industrial Commission, our Sunshine Coach Service, our organizations such as Lions
Club, Rotary Club and Legion, plus many more; our curling and golf clubs, our state-of-the-art recreation facilities, our great schools, our very strong health care, our churches, our surrounding municipalities, our media and many more. As a community, let’s all move forward together. We will instill an attitude of co-operation. I would like our motto to be: “How can we help you?” From our children to our seniors, our community will grow and be a great place to live, work and play. With all respect, as your Mayor, I will endeavour to work very hard for you and I will do my best not to let you down. Welcome to Renfrew. We are open for business. How can WE help you?

Auditor general, local MPP critical of smart meter program tlepack@metroland.com
News – The Ontario debt and smart meter program were two areas of concern raised by the Auditor General of Ontario in her annual report released on Dec. 9. Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski agrees that the matters should be of great concern to all Ontario residents. In the report Bonnie Lysyk stated that the debt continues to grow faster than the province’s economy, which could have negative implications for the province’s finances. She recommended that the government should provide legislators and the public with a plan to manage
Yakabuski to Liberals: “Let’s treat all municipalities equally” Editor’s Note: This is a news release from the office of MPP John Yakabuski. News - In the Legislative Assembly recently, Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski re-introduced his Private Member’s Bill that will bring fundamental fairness to Ontario’s rural municipalities. The Gasoline Tax Fairness for All Act will ensure that all municipalities share in a portion of the gas tax they pay. Currently, the Gasoline Tax Act only permits those municipalities that have a rapid transit or public transportation system to get a tax rebate. As a result, in 2014 only 96 out of 444 municipalities received money from the gas tax even though every resident in the province pays into it. For years Yakabuski has been advocating to amend the Act to ensure that all municipalities share in a portion of the gas tax. By making all municipalities eligible to receive a rebate the provincial government would be creating an equal
energy,” said Yakabuski. “None of that has happened, it cost twice that and has not reduced energy use.” Lysyk, called the business case for the smart meters flawed. “Our audit found that the smart meter program was rolled out with aggressive targets and tight timelines but without nearly enough planning or monitoring by the ministry,” Lysyk said in a press release on the report. Yakabuski says the opposition will continue to press the government, saying the smart meters have been an abysmal failure. “The Global Adjustment will cost Ontario electricity customers $50 billion between 2006 and 2015,”
debt in line with the government’s net debt to GDP target of 27 per cent. “It’s one of the most scathing indictments of the government’s failure to act responsibility while spending the people’s money,” said Yakabuski. “We are on track to have a $325 billion debt by 2017-2018. The auditor general indicated clearly there is no credibility for the government to eliminate the debt by that time.” As the Progressive Conservatives Energy Critic, Yakabuski was most interested in what the auditor general said about Hydro and the Green Energy Act. He called what has happened with the smart meter program a fiasco. “The government claimed that it would cost $1 billion dollars and it would reduce
findings were wrong because ‘the electricity system is very complex. It’s very difficult to understand.’ Those comments are not only patronizing and arrogant, they’re sexist,” said Horwath in a release on the report. Ade Olumide, who is seeking to be the next Conservative candidate in the new federal riding of KanataCarleton, also weighed in on the report. Olumide noted in a release that the AG report referenced a $50 billion cost for paying above market rates for electricity. While Olumide was a member of the Municipal Taxpayer Advocacy Group, he said he persuaded 37 municipalities across Ontario to pass a motion that Hydro should be affordable and now.

playing field. The federal government currently distributes their portion of the gas tax to all municipalities. There is nothing stopping the province from distributing their rebates in a similar manner. “I first introduced this Bill in recognition of the fact that rural municipalities depend on their roads and bridges as the only public transportation available to them, yet receive no gas tax funding” Yakabuski said. “The longer the government takes to address the unfairness of the current funding model the larger the infrastructure problem becomes.” Yakabuski noted that there is nothing stopping Premier Wynne from distributing the gas tax rebate to all 444 Ontario municipalities now that she has her majority government. “We are about to begin pre-budget hearings in the province” concluded Yakabuski. “If the Premier earnestly wants to reach out to rural Ontario she can do so by making my PMB into a government bill.”
Yakabuski stressed. He noted the current Minister of Energy Bob Chiarelli compared the Global Adjustment fee to a cup of coffee. “That is one heck of a cup of coffee,” said Yakabuski. In Question Periods on Dec. 10 and 11, Yakabuski called for Chiarelli to resign. “Someone has to take the fall for this,” said Yakabuski. “In fairness he was not the minister when these programs started, but he is the minister of the day… It’s called ministerial responsibility … when the ministry fails, the minister must go.” NDP Leader Andrea Horwath also called for Chiarelli’s resignation. “The minister said the Auditor’s

HOLIDAY DECORATING Be careful with holiday decorations. Choose decorations that are flame resistant. Keep lit candles away from decorations and other things that can burn. Some lights are only for indoor or outdoor use, so ensure you are using them in the proper location and they are UL/CSA approved. (don’t overload circuits) Any damaged extension cords or lights with worn or broken wires or loose bulb connections, should be replaced Real trees require lots of water to keep them fresh, so add water daily Use clips, not nails, to hang lights so the cords do not get damaged. Do not block exits with decorations

News – With Peter Emon returning as County warden, expect gender equality in Renfrew County’s committee system. Because there was such a turnover in the Oct. 27 election, Emon, who was unopposed as warden for a third term, is facing a challenge appointing the chairs and vice-chairs of the six main county committees. There are only five returning county councillors, with 12 newcomers being elected. Such long-time mayor/ reeves as Audrey Green, Raye-Anne Briscoe and David Thompson went down to defeat. Nevertheless, Emon says he is intending to ensure that when a male chairs a committee, the vice-chair will be a female, and vice versa. On Oct. 27 there were seven
women elected to represent their municipalities at county council: Jennifer Murphy in Bonnechere Valley, Glenda McKay in Greater Madawaska Joan Lougheed in Deep River, Debbie Robinson in Laurentian Valley, Kim Love in Madawaska Valley, Deborah Farr in North Algona Wilberforce, and Janice Visneskie Moore in Killaloe, Hagarty and Richards. The other 10 were men: Emon in Renfrew; Walter Stack in Arnprior; Tom Peckett in McNab-Braeside; Bob Kingsbury in Horton; Michael Donohue in Admaston-Bromley; Terry Miller in Whitewater Region; Bob Sweet in Petawawa; Garry Gruntz in Brudenell, Lyndoch and Raglan; Jim Gibson in Head, Clara and Maria; and John Reinwald in Laurentian Hills, Emon was scheduled to be installed for another term as warden at County council’s inaugural meeting Tuesday (after press deadline).

The panel presented initiatives to engage property developers and community stakeholders with the development of affordable housing to create resilient and sustainable communities. A highlight of the day was an inspirational presentation by Joe Roberts, the “Skidrow CEO”. Roberts spoke about how to stay inspired and motivated, and gave insight into what being homeless means from an insider’s perspective. His main message was, “There’s more to you, than you can see.” All the presentations carried the common themes of the day,” everyone needs a place to call home” and “everyone has a role to play in building new affordable housing.” Participants went away from the day having heard about the many tools available to help individuals, community groups, and business interests to explore and finance new construction.

Public Meeting
A public meeting to inform the public of the proposed zoning amendment will be held on January 6 at 6:30 p.m. at the municipal office of the Township of McNab/Braeside.
Purpose and Effect The effect of this amendment is to rezone a 150 metre strip of land from Extractive Industrial (EM) to Extractive Industrial Reserve (EMR) to not allow aggregate extraction. The purpose of the amendment is to implement a 300 metre setback for aggregate extraction from the property line of the abutting residential properties on Golf Club Road. All other provisions of the Zoning By-Law shall apply. The lands proposed to be rezoned are also subject to an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-Law amendment to permit an expansion to a quarry and to permit a permanent asphalt plant as an additional use. Both of these applications have been appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board. Additional information regarding the Zoning By-law amendment is available for inspection at the Township of McNab/Braeside Municipal Office during regular office hours. If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Township of McNab/Braeside before the by-law is passed, by the Township, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision of the Township of McNab/Braeside, to the Ontario Municipal Board. If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submissions to the Township of McNab/Braeside before the by-law is passed by the Township, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Municipal Board unless, in the opinion of the Board, there are reasonable grounds to do so. NOTE: One of the purposes of the Planning Act is to provide for planning processes that are open, accessible, timely and efficient. Accordingly, all written submissions, documents, correspondence, e-mails or other communications (including your name and address) form part of the public record and will be disclosed/made available by the Municipality to such persons as the Municipality sees fit, including anyone requesting such information. Accordingly, in providing such information, you shall be deemed to have consented to its use and disclosure as part of the planning process. Dated at the Township of McNab/Braeside this 18th day of December, 2014.

CARING FOR OUR COMMUNITY FOR 150 YEARS The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, December 18, 2014 7
OPINION
Connected to your community
EDITORIAL
Warning: Lock it or lose it Opinion - With the Christmas season in full swing and with news that the Ontario Provincial Police are taking part in the Ontario-wide Lock It or Lose It Campaign, now is as good a time as any to remind a surprisingly large segment of the population that leaving car doors unlocked or leaving items of value inside a vehicle and in plain view is, in a word, stupid. We respect the freedom of choice that local residents have when it comes to locking the doors of their homes, garages and vehicles. As much as it shouldn’t be the case, no one should be surprised these days when an unlocked car or truck becomes a crime scene. We know this has been an
issue in portions of many communities in Renfrew County for several years. Car owners find that someone has violated their property and made off with everything from wallets, purses, laptops and other devices. The police would report on the thefts and remind the public to lock their vehicles and not to leave valuables in plain view or in their vehicles at all. That would work until the next thief comes along and takes advantage of the opportunity provided by owners who haven’t learned their lesson or choose not to change how they do things just because of some petty crook. And don’t rule out identity theft as a possible motive to open an unlocked door
or two. Anyone who leaves credit cards or even credit card documents in a car could be at risk. Some police are now advising motorists to take vehicle ownership and insurance slips with them rather than leaving those materials unattended in a glove compartment – especially if those doors are unlocked. A kid stealing a few bucks from a coin holder is one thing; a more savvy criminal stealing your identity and ruining your credit is a much more costly possibility to consider. So if a local OPP officer leaves a note on your car indicating which safety precautions have been overlooked, be thankful for the advice and do something about it.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Blame it on rubber stamps and bubble wrap To the editor:
Opinion - There have been so many disturbing news articles lately, that I just have to take a moment to comment. The world we live in has some pretty horrible things going on. What is going on? Why so much horror, such lack of empathy, lack of any humanity at all? I have a theory: I blame it on rubber stamps and bubble wrap. You laugh, I’m sure, and are shaking your head, dismissing me as a nut job. But hear me out. First of all, no matter how we dress, eat, speak, live, work or play, humans are animals. Animals have pretty basic needs when you get right down to it; breathe, eat, defecate, sleep, mate. The vast majority of humans manage all of these basic needs without a thought. Except the last one. Mate. I’m not talking about sex. That’s easy. Anyone can manage that in some form or another.

But actually going out into the world and finding another human to bond with, to share affection with, to spend time with, that’s where rubber stamps and bubble wrap start interfering. If we can’t mate properly, we can’t reproduce normally, and then the society starts to break down. How? What am I talking about? I’m talking about our hyper-sensitive, heavily regulated, properly patrolled, and micromanaged society. From the moment we open our eyes in the morning, we are told, no matter our age, what we have to do next. We are also told what we can’t do next. It starts with babies. They must eat this much, sleep this much, burp that much, and have this many dirty diapers. What if they don’t? Something must be wrong with them. Take them to the doctor and get them fixed. Babyproof the house. Special chairs to sit in. Gates to keep them downstairs, gates to keep them

upstairs, locks to keep them out of cupboards, and only safe, professionally designed toys made with bpa-free plastic, lead-free, chipproof paint that stimulates their right-brain thinking. What happened to dirt? Pots and pans? Outside? Allowing them to explore their world, and interact with it? Oh, no. They can’t. They might get hurt. Yes, yes they might. Maybe we should just lock them in their safe and pretty rooms until they go to school. In school, their eating habits are regulated to death. “Oh Timmy, you shouldn’t have that in your lunch, it’s not a healthy choice.” So what? Maybe they get ridiculously healthy meals at home, and this is a treat for them. What gives the school board/province the right to judge? Has anyone that makes these rules every actually made a lunch for school aged kids? No peanut butter (which is the only sandwich my kids will eat), limit the sugar, limit the salt, limit the fat.
Good lord what’s left? Tofu? Oh wait, that’s a soy product and contains gmo’s and so not a healthy choice either. Water. I can send them with water. Oh, and organically, sustainably, locally produced produce. As long as no one is allergic. So strawberries are out. And oranges. And tomatoes. Once they go to school, they are often discouraged from original behaviour as well as inappropriate lunches. Of course beating up your classmates is frowned upon, but why is only wanting to paint frowned upon? Why is only wanting to play with dolls on your own frowned upon? Well, they need to be able to interact with others a certain way by this age. They should have more varied interests at this point. Yes, yes, they should, but for safety reasons I kept them in their room until the first day of school.

Why is showing/receiving affection from a classmate or teacher so taboo that reprimands and lawsuits are threatened? What is wrong with doing what comes naturally? Oh, well, we have to make sure nothing inappropriate happens. Inappropriate? Like a hug if they’re crying? Like a pat on the back if they did well? Oh no, like molestation. Yes, that would be horrible. I agree. But does absolutely every teacher/ ece/volunteer act inappropriately? No, but they could. So what happened to teaching the difference between “good” or “bad” touching? Oh, we aren’t allowed to do that anymore, parents don’t want us talking to their kids about “those” kind of things. They might get the wrong ideas and start behaving inappropriately with their peers. Maybe we should switch to online interactive classes until high school. Why is playing tag on the playground frowned upon? Why is sliding down the slide in winter frowned upon? Well that’s a no-brainer, someone could get hurt. They don’t always have the motorskills to maneuver properly by this

lowed to play freely with their peers, how can we expect them to interact with them? If we focus 100 per cent on them all the time, how can we expect them to focus on anything or anyone else? If we don’t let them decide what they like to do, how can we expect them to select a vocation in life? If we don’t let them show affection, teach them the difference between a “good” or “bad” touch, how can we expect them to be able to share a healthy productive life with a mate? We can’t. But we do. The mental health statistics have soared. Teen suicide is an epidemic. We are at war with everyone for everything. I can’t help but wonder what our world would be like if we would just let kids be kids, and humans be human. Maybe nothing. But maybe, maybe something wonderful. Angela Field Admaston-Bromley

Area Toastmasters successful at District 61 fall conference Toastmasters
Community - At the beginning of November, a group of Toastmasters from the Ottawa Valley took to the roads to Mont Sainte-Anne, Que. for a Toastmasters District 61 fall conference Nov. 7 to 9. This semi-annual event is held at different locations in District 61, which takes in part of Eastern Ontario, Quebec and part of New York State. The Valley Vintage Advanced Toastmasters Club was presented the Crowning Glory Award for having achieved the most educational awards per member during the 2013-2014 calendar year. Seven members of the club attended this fall conference.

Pembroke and Arnprior Toastmasters also made it into the Top 10. With a humorous speech titled The Break Up, Tracy Franken, a full-service canine behaviour rehabilitation centre owner from Renfrew, won the humorous-speech contest first-place trophy. Her speech was an immediate favourite with the capacity crowd of nearly 220 people. Tracy reached the district championship level after winning several elimination rounds that began at the club level, the area level, and finally the division level, taking top honours in each contest. Her winning speech is available for viewing on Facebook, at the Renfrew Toastmasters page.
Lynne Zander, Valley Vintage Advanced Club, competed in the french evaluation contest and received a thirdplace trophy. She also received her second Distinguished Toastmasters Award. Fran Watson, a member of both Valley Vintage Advanced and Renfrew Toastmasters, was presented with a plaque “For the untiring support and dedication in her service to Division B.” Maria Thompson, Renfrew Toastmasters vice-president of education and District 61 secretary, was the surprise test speaker for the English Evaluation Contest. This was her first time as a test speaker, and to do this role was a challenge at which she

excelled. Everyone demonstrated what dedication can do. Fran Watson stated, “We may be small in numbers, but we are mighty in our abilities.” Several members of the Renfrew Toastmasters Club, Area Governor Phil Godon, and Rick Holloway, District 61 Public Relations Officer, recently participated in the Renfrew and Area Chamber of Commerce Newcomers Night held at the Renfrew Legion hall. People new to the Renfrew area had an opportunity to ask questions about Toastmasters, and as a result, the club welcomed some new members. A youth leadership program is in the works and will be held at St. Joseph’s High
School in Renfrew and will run for 12 weeks. Maria Thompson is the leader of this project, in conjunction with other toastmasters from the club. The Renfrew Toastmasters Club currently meets at St. Joseph’s High School, Renfrew, every Monday from 7 to 9 p.m. Anyone who is interested can contact Randy Pitts at 613-327-1697 or more information. The Valley Vintage Advanced Club meets twice a month (1st and 3rd Fridays) at the Quail Creek Retirement Home, Renfrew, in the chapel, or at a local restaurant.

One female was charged with three counts of assault, three counts of fail to comply with probation, two counts of criminal harassment, two counts of domestic mischief, and one charge of cruelty to animals. RIDE Checks Continue
Police are continuing to conduct numerous RIDE spot checks in their efforts to combat drinking and driving. During the first 10 days of December, 66 RIDE spot checks were set up in the Renfrew OPP Detachment area. No charges of impaired driving have been laid. Citizens are encouraged to continue with their efforts to eliminate impaired driving, which might include reporting suspected impaired drivers by calling 9-1-1, having a designated driver, choosing to stay the night if they have been drinking, or call a taxi. Don’t let an impaired driving tragedy ruin your holidays, drive sober! #See Snow Go Slow
Motorists are encouraged to reduce their speed during snowstorms. Too many people continue to drive too fast, fail to leave enough distance between vehicles, and don’t give themselves extra time to stop when it is snowing out. Winter driving can be challenging and motorists must adjust their driving for the weather conditions or they may find themselves sliding out of control or involved in collisions.

Bonnechere Manor staff no chickens County of Renfrew
News - Every year the flu season poses a serious threat for those with weakened immune systems such as the frail elderly and individuals with complex medical conditions. Long-term care nursing homes and hospitals are challenged annually to protect their residents and patients from the flu. The challenge is to convince staff to receive the flu shot which in turn will prevent the spread of the viruses within the hospital or long term care home and potentially save lives. Statistics show that the percentage of staff that take the flu shot in Ontario hospitals runs at around 55 per cent while long term care homes average around 78 per cent. This year Bonnechere Manor Long Term Care Nursing Home situated in Renfrew, Ontario took on the challenge to have over 80 per cent of their staff receive the flu shot. The previous year the home was at 71 per cent participation.
Michael Barber/County of Renfrew
From left, unit clerk Tammy Kelly, Dr. DiPaolo and nurse practitioner Greg Crowder. The campaign saw additional education for staff, prize draws for those getting their shot and most importantly a challenge from the Medical Director, Dr. Andrea DiPaolo. Dr. DiPaolo
said he would wear a chicken suit to do his rounds if the home could reach an 80% participation level. The staff met Dr.DiPaolo’s challenge, reaching an 85 per
cent participation rate. On Dec. 2 true to his word Dr. DiPaolo showed up for work at Bonnechere Manor wearing a chicken suit, and was greeted by cheering staff and residents alike! This is one doctor who is doing whatever it takes to increase awareness of the importance of getting your flu shot, and protecting our vulnerable elderly population. Congratulations to “Dr. D” and the Bonnechere Manor staff! County of Renfrew Warden Peter Emon shared this congratulatory message: “Our longterm care facility residents are at high risk of influenza-related complications due to pre-existing health issues and aging. I would like to acknowledge the Bonnechere Manor staff for surpassing Dr. DiPaolo’s challenge, and to Dr. Di Paolo for inspiring staff to take up that challenge in a fun and engaging way. I would encourage everyone that can do so, to get the flu shot not just to protect themselves but others in our community.” Don’t be chicken, get the flu shot!

Valley Heritage Radio listeners donate more than $20,000 in only four hours Valley Heritage Radio
Community - The generosity of people in the Ottawa Valley and the Pontiac never ceases to amaze me. Those were the words of Art Jamieson, the main man behind the microphone at Saturday’s Holly Jolly Radiothon, an annual fundraiser held at Valley Heritage Radio. Each December a local charity is in the spotlight, and every single penny pledged by the station’s listeners is handed over to assist the group with their cause. This year the four-hour event brought in more than $20,000 for the Renfrew County Suicide Prevention and Crisis Centre, a branch of the Robbie Dean Family Counselling Centre. Even Jamieson, who has hosted telethons and radiothons in the Ottawa Valley for close to three decades, was blown away by the continued support of the good folks in communities around the region. “If you can give the people a reason to give, they will,” said Jamieson. “And this year it was for a cause that affects so many people around the area. People opened up their hearts and their wallets. Look at the end result – $20,000 in four hours. Are there any better people than people in the Valley and the Pontiac?”
Station manager Jason Marshall said he couldn’t be happier with the amount of money donated, but is equally impressed with the amount of exposure given to the suicide prevention centre. “They can obviously use the money to keep the doors open and keep doing the great work they do, but the biggest thing about today is letting people know there is a place to turn if you need help,” said Marshall. “The more we worked with this group the more it became clear they are amazing people doing amazing things. They are life savers. Literally, this group is saving lives in our communities.” Tom Sidney, director for the centre, actually received a call during the radiothon from a woman who didn’t know where to turn. She was very concerned about her daughter’s state of mind, and was worried she may hurt herself. When the woman heard about the centre on the radio during the fundraiser, she picked up the phone and reached out to speak to Sidney. “Because of the radiothon, this woman found out about us and we’ve set up an appointment to talk to her and get her the help she and her family needs,” said Sidney. “We raised a
lot of money, but it can’t compare to maybe saving someone’s life because of the publicity we received through this event.” Sidney and the team at the centre were ecstatic with the fundraiser and how it all turned out. “Thank you to everyone that phoned in a pledge or came into the station to hand deliver their support. All the money raised will go right back into the community to help families and save lives,” said Sidney. “On behalf of the Robbie Dean Centre and all the families that will benefit from your hard work, dedication and support, thank you. What a fantastic, heart-warming day,” he said. Sidney said the money will go towards expanding the centre’s current services, which includes walk-in clinics in Pembroke, Petawawa, Arnprior and Renfrew. The centre will also look to jumpstart a pro-active information campaign at area schools, and launch suicide survivor groups. Anyone wishing to contribute to the centre, or learn more about the services offered, can contact Tom Sidney at 613-433-4231. This year’s event was co-sponsored by Ontario Power Generation.

and staff will be co-ordinating a township-wide clean-up program. The municipality will be asking for support from residents, businesses, children, everyone to help clean along the township’s waterways, residences and roads. A goal of the township is to get everyone environmentally responsible, McKay added. McKay made a presentation to outgoing councillors Karin Lehnhardt and Bruno Kierczak, thanking them for their hard work and commitment over the years. Bonnechere Valley Mayor Jennifer Murphy also addressed the gathering on behalf of Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon. “Our communities share our border, a number of services, we share ideas and common beliefs. “I also share my husband with you, as your fire chief,” Murphy added to laughs from the crowd. Murphy said progress in all communities is dependent on the hard work of volunteers,
staff and council members.

News - It was the dawn of a new beginning for Greater Madawaska Council at the Calabogie Community Centre Dec. 9. A good crowd was on hand to witness the declaration of office of first-time mayor Glenda McKay, and Ward 1 councillor incumbent Brian Hunt and newcomers Nicole Guthrie in Ward 1, Harold Murphy in Ward 2, and Glen MacPherson for Ward 3. Students from St. Joseph’s Catholic School in Calabogie sang the national anthem. Pastor William Griffiths gave the opening prayer. Pastor Griffiths noted that after officiating over three such events, this was the best attendance ever. “The contribution of the previous council should not go unnoticed,” Mayor McKay said in her inaugural address. She said they have put the building blocks in place for where the township is today. The next four years will be both exciting and challenging as
the new council moves forward, McKay said. “Councillor Murphy, Councillor MacPherson and Councillor Guthrie will bring new ideas and experiences to the table, and Councillor Hunt will bring councillor experience of financial strength,” the mayor said. Mayor McKay encourages residents of the municipality to continue to volunteer on the various committees. She asked the people to also continue to support local businesses and their services. “They (businesses) work hard to find ways to entice visitors, campers, seniors, golfers, car and bike enthusiasts and new residents to our community,” McKay added. “Our businesses and their services are a necessary part of our infrastructure.” Mayor McKay praised the work of public works under the direction of Jamie Doering, the fire department (Chief David Murphy), planning department (Marko Cekic), financial department (Adam Murphy) and office staff (CAO Allison Holtzhauer).

The Renfrew Collegiate Music Department Junior and Senior Concert bands, Jazz Band, the Blue Notes choir, and several talented soloists and small ensembles performed for 700 people over a two-day period. Our musicians performed at their annual Sounds of Christmas concert on Dec. 7 and at the annual elementary schools concert on Monday, Dec. 8. Sunday’s performance delighted almost 200 members of the community, on Monday 500 students from Central Public School, Queen Elizabeth Public School and RCIS had an enjoyable start to the Christmas season. Senior Band president Brianna McDonald said, “The performances were well received. All our rehearsal time and dedication really paid off.” Our musicians always enjoy performing for the community, but they especially enjoy sharing their passion for music with younger students. Percussionist Alex Stafford said, “The kids really enjoyed the music, especially when they had the chance to interact and play all the little percussion instruments. It was a good day.” Highlights of the concert included the Senior Concert Bands performance of the popular Disney song Let it Go from the movie Frozen. Cameron Hunter and Kaitlyn Warner wowed the audience with beautiful harmony during their rendition of Deck the Halls. Danielle Kubiseski’s Santa Baby was a hit. The audience also enjoyed a saxophone solo from Grade 7 student Cole Armstrong, and a festive piano solo by Ellie Collins. The Jazz Band wowed the audience with Frosty the Snowman. Our Junior Band impressed the audience with their set of three Christmas Songs including the challenging Tidings of Joy. The 70 musicians involved in the

Jessica Rollins earns Wasmund scholarship for students from North Hastings and North Renfrew counties to attend Queen’s University, one of Canada’s top universities. Eligible high schools are NHHS, MVDHS, Opeongo and RCI. The fund is a permanent endowment and will support 12 students annually in their undergraduate training at Queen’s Each student will receive $7,000 for his/her first year and for each consecutive year up to graduation if the required grades are maintained. Jessica Rollins, who grew up on a beef farm in Laurentian Valley Township near Cobden, has chosen to enter the Faculty of Music and plans to major in performance on clarinet. At Opeongo, Jessica became involved in their OSPREY program studying ecological sciences
with Queen’s. Based on many interesting field trips and lab visits, she was rapidly persuaded, recalling: “Queen’s always seemed like a welcoming, well-organized place; I heard only good things about the University, and they certainly didn’t disappoint. Queen’s has been the ultimate homeaway-from-home for me, from the faculty to my floormates. Everything and everyone have made me feel welcome here and have made a real impression. As well as performing with the faculty of music, I am involved in several extracurricular music groups in my own time, and play saxophone in two of them. I march in Queen’s Bands, and am involved with the swing club on campus. I am very honoured to attend Queen’s and to be chosen for the Wasmund Family Scholars award.” Jessica Rollins

Community - Eleven and a half tables competed in duplicate bridge at MaTe-Way Activity Centre Wednesday, Dec. 10. The drawing card for the record turnout had to be the delicious Christmas lunch which was scheduled pre-game at 11:30 a.m. in a venue appropriately turned festive. The Christmas goodies donated by members were a standout. Four small slams were successful. Ruth Grant and Mary McCann brought home six hearts; Bernadette and Tom Culhane made six spades, as did Wayne Daze and Garry Irving; and Lila Paddock and Ronda Vaillancourt took all 13 tricks in a six clubs contract. Kudos go to the slammers. Congratulations also to the following winners: • North-South: 1st – Phillippa Baran and Nancy Cavanagh (72.80%); 2nd – Carol and David Sulpher; 3rd – Sharon and Tom Sew-

Thank You Betty CampBell
We would like to express our sincere thanks for the donations, flowers, food, cards and condolences sent our way when we lost a wonderful mom and grandma, Betty (Frieda) Campbell. We truly appreciate the support of our family and friends especially over the past four years when we have had to lean on you the most. A huge thank you to Dr. Delbrouke, the dialysis unit staff (her home away from home), Dr. Straeder, the third floor nurses, the cafeteria staff and everyone at the Renfrew Victoria Hospital who supported Mom with kindness and caring over the past several years.

A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Vilis and Dr. Kiskis for their tremendous support over many years and to the nurses at the Arnprior Hospital who treated my mom and our family with compassion and caring during her short stay there. Much gratitude goes out to The Villa for making my mom feel at home there and the drivers and staff of Seniors at Home (Wayne, Ian, Tammy and the gang) who took such great care of my mom on the many trips to and from Renfrew. A big thank you goes out to Andre Pilon and his wonderful staff for their caring, professionalism and attention to detail and to Pastor Norine Gullons for being there for mom and our family over the past several months and also to Pastor Norine, the pallbearers and everyone who was part of making the service a memorable send off for a special mom, grandma, sister, aunt and friend.

HOGAN, Bill In loving memory of a cherished husband, father and grandfather who passed away December 23, 1992.
God looked upon His garden, And found and empty space, the He looked down upon the earth, and saw your tired face. He put His arms around you, And lifted you to rest. God’s garden must be beautiful, for He only takes the best. He saw the road was getting rough, the hills were hard to climb, He closed your weary eyes and whispered “peace be thine” It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone, For part of us went with you, to God’s garden, your new home.
There’s a family who misses you dearly, In a home where you used to be, There’s a family who wanted to keep you, But God willed it not to be, You left us many happy memories, And a sorrow too great to be told, But to us who loved you and lost you, Your memory will never grow old.
Sadly missed, forever remembered by Brian, Bev & Carl, Kim, Bill, Joel & Kate Bonnie, Neil & Abby
All our love, Max, Linda and Family

God knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain, He knew you would not get well, Here on Earth again. He saw your path was difficult, He closed your tired eyes, And whispered “Peace be thine” And gave you wings to fly. As time goes by without you, And days turn into years, They hold a million memories And a thousand tears. Sadly missed by Fran, Brett, Brian, Jamie and families
To my dear friend who passed away on Dec. 4, 2008. It has now been 6 years since you left us. Please know your memory burns brightly, with all of the folks that knew you.

You were one fine gentleman, Who was loved by many, And will never ever be forgotten. May The Peace of Christ be with your soul forever. Your friend forever, Christopher Skarica
Until We Meet Again We think about you always, We talk about you still, You have never been forgotten, Father, and you never will. We hold you close within our hearts, And there you will remain, To walk and guide us through our lives until we meet again.

RVH Auxiliary turns 70 years in 2015 Community - The Renfrew Victoria Hospital Auxiliary was founded in 1945. We will celebrate our 70th anniversary in 2015 with celebrations and special fundraising activities. Early years
Making Children’s Christmas merry For 30 years, Renfrew Metro has made Christmas much better for needy children through its annual toy drive for the Salvation Army. With grocery carts filled with toys, from left, are Joan Pilgrim of Renfrew Metro, Metro owner Ray Vidler, and Salvation Army family services co-ordinator Jane Forrest.

Keeping kids warm in winter The Renfrew Firefighters made their annual boot collection during the Dec. 6 Santa Claus Parade for the Renfrew Snowsuit Fund. At the fire hall last week, the fire department presented a cheque for $2,630. From left are Firefighter Chad Scerba, Jack Collins of the Renfrew Snowsuit Fund, and Firefighter Andrew Westbrook.
In 1956 the Renfrew Victoria Hospital Board asked the Auxiliary to purchase equipment which has remained our main goal since then. In 1960 a tuck cart and library cart was handled by teenage volunteers called Candy Stripers. A Superfluity Shop operated from about 1979 until 1992 under the capable management of Chip Troke, who passed in 2014 in her 104th year with almost 60 years’ service. In 1992 a gift shop was opened in the hospital under the direction of several members including Joan Hilliard, convenor of our present Gift Shop Committee. About 30 volun-

Seven-spot in second leads Wolves Peter Clark
peter.clark@metroland.com
Sports - The Renfrew Timberwolves enjoy a five-point lead over the Stittsville Rams atop the Valley Division of the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League a week before Christmas. Now things start to get interesting. The two teams meet twice over the end of 2014, including this Friday at the Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre. Game time is 8 p.m. The Wolves enter that contest with an 18-5-1-and-1 record, good for 38 points. Stittsville had 33 points on the strength of a 16-7-0-and-1 mark. A huge second period vaulted the Wolves past the visit-
ing Almonte Thunder Friday night. Wolves 11, Almonte 2
The Wolves broke open a 2-1 game with seven goals in the second period to win going away. Colin Bradbury, on an early powerplay, and Bailey Hein shorthanded, gave the Wolves a 2-0 opening-stanza edge before Garrett Nichol answered on a Thunder powerplay late in the period. But it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long for the Wolves to put this one away in the middle session. Scott Conroy had two goals, and Colin Raddatz and Lucas Gonu singles to trump a Mike Hauschild Almonte marker for a 6-2 Renfrew lead before the
period was five minutes old. Gonu, Cole Allard and Bradbury added goals in the second half of the period to up the ante to 9-2 through 40 minutes of play. Conroy and Allard added third-period markers. When the dust settled, Conroy finished with a hat trick. Bradbury, Gonu and Allard added a pair. Gonu also chipped in with five assists for a seven-point night. Conroy and Teddy Suckow both collected three helpers, and Bradbury two. Matt Gagne handled Wolves goaltending duties for two periods. Despite the score, he was called upon to make three or four top-notch saves. See WOLVES, page 36

Wolves: own five-point lead atop Valley Division after 11-2 win Friday From page 35
Dane Brumm tended the third period between the pipes for the Wolves and was tested right away. Brumm recorded a noteworthy stop off a Ben Wade breakaway in the opening seconds of the period. Matthew Dods and Jesse Schoeman shared Thunder netminding chores. Neither had much of a chance on most of the goals for an Almonte team a dozen points out of a playoff spot and playing like it. The Wolves outshot the Thunder 50-25.
The game came with one scrap midway through the second period. Wolves defenceman Jon Rosein came to the defence of goaltender Matt Gagne, who was knocked down by Almonte’s Mike Hauschild behind the play. Both Rosein and Hauschild received fighting majors and game misconducts for their spirited tilt. The Wolves also lost the services of captain Nolan Rook as a result of a check-from-behind call.
Wolves howlings
The Wolves Jacob Collins, who has also played some with the Pembroke Lumber Kings this season, is currently with the Plymouth Whalers of the Ontario Hockey League. The Whalers drafted the Renfrew native this past year. The Whalers played one game last weekend, dropping a 6-4 decision to the host London Knights Friday night. Collins had no points or penalty minutes, but was a plus-1 in the game.
The Wolves close out the pre-Christmas portion of the Valley Division schedule with a pair of home games this weekend. The Wolves host the Stittsville Rams this Friday at 8 p.m. It’s the final chance to purchase tickets on the Wolves $500 cash draw. The draw will take place at the game. On Sunday, the Gatineau Mustangs provide the opposition at the Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre. Ten Christmas turkeys will be drawn for off the 50-50 tickets throughout the course of the game.

Renfrew Amateur Wrestling Club
Sports - Six local grapplers participated in the St. Quinte High School Invitational Wrestling Tournament Belleville Dec. 10 and demonstrated what our local team was all about. Thew won three gold and two silver medals. They also had a fifth-place finish. The team beat the snow storm that was on its way and participated in the four-mat surface competition against about 200 area wrestlers. Teegan Tabbert and Devin Tabbert, both from Opeongo High School, captured gold for their school while teammate Liam Jones competed up an age division and placed fifth. Renfrew Collegiate Raiders wrestler Lily Warren was the other local gold medal winner while Bryson Lines and Colton Warren each placed second. It was a pleasure to watch our local team as they showed great technical ability in their matches. Lily Warren met a strong girl in her gold medal match who, according to her coach, had not been placed in a pinning position for the past two years. Lily threw her to her back twice before turning her and pinning her halfway through the first round. Bryson Lines also showed a strong performance and only due to a small technical error lost the gold. Grade 9 student Liam Jones is a newcomer to the sport and had the odds against him when he had to compete against some wrestlers in Grade
12. But he showed improvement throughout the day. It seemed that Teegan could shoot and score with little effort on her opponent during the day event and easily captured the top spot on the podium. Brother Devin showed his technical knowledge and strength while Colton Warren continues to demonstrate his strength and is working on his technique which showed throughout the day. The team now prepares for the final competition in 2014. They are in Smith Falls on Dec. 20 to compete for the Eastern Ontario Championship.

Marathon success Joe Federer of the RUNFrew Run Club completed his first marathon Dec. 7. Federer successfully ran the Cayman Island Marathon. Wife Jayne Styles ran the half marathon at the same event. The race started at 5 a.m. with conditions clear and in the low 20s (Fahrenheit). The full moon was setting. The first loop went well, Federer said. In the second loop, he walked quite a bit. “I relaxed and concentrated on goal 1 – finishing,” Federer said. “I am sore but satisfied.”

38 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, December 18, 2014
Pembroke Regional Hospital welcomes third obstetrician-gynecologist to team medicine and while she first explored the option of family medicine, she soon realized she had a greater interest in women’s health so opted to pursue a specialty in obstetrics and gynaecology. “Obstetrics tends to be such a positive profession. You get to be part of many joyful and memorable moments with women and their families and that’s something you don’t take lightly or forget,” Dr. Leavey said. Part of the appeal of this specialty, she said, is the variety as well as the opportunity to do minimally invasive surgical procedures, something she took a real interest in during residency training at Western University. “I like being able to relate to my patients and I enjoy being able to help women of all ages with gynaecological issues they may be having.” Dr. Leavey began seeing patients in early September and is looking forward to receiving referrals from family physicians for women in need of obstetrical or gynaecological care. She is also looking forward to settling
CAHRC research identifies worker roles and skills needed on farms Canada,” explained Portia Macdonald-Dewhirst, executive director of the Council. “The NAOF project will create a holistic view of the Canadian agricultural labour industry and will help shape government policies, education and training over the next 10 years. Ultimately, this will help producers to more effectively access, train and retain workers.” The research will be conducted via 50 focus groups that will be held across Canada between now and March 2016. The focus groups will examine and identify the knowledge, skills and abilities needed by farm workers to do the work. From there, policies and programs will be created to fill the identified needs. .All producers are encouraged to participate and can indicate their interest by contacting Jade Reeve, NAOF Project Manager at Reeve@cahrc-ccrha.ca. Travel and related expenses to attend the focus groups will be provided. Funded by the Government of Canada’s Sectoral Initiatives Program, the Council is collaborating on this three-year project with federal and provincial government departments, over thirty of Canada’s leading agricultural organizations,.

Community – The Canadian Agricultural Human Resource Council (CAHRC) has initiated a research project to identify and validate four critical roles that span all commodities within agriculture to clarify skill requirements and assist stakeholders in addressing the skills and labour shortages facing agriculture now and in the future. The National Agricultural Occupational Framework and Labour Market Support (NAOF) project will develop standardized descriptions of farm jobs from the entry to manager levels across 10 commodity areas including: aquaculture; cattle (beef/dairy); poultry and eggs; crops; swine; other animals; field fruit and vegetables; tree fruit and vines; greenhouse, nursery, floriculture and sod; and other agriculture. This expanded job data will then be converted into a set of tools that connect job and youth internship seekers with farms that are hiring; help farm workers to identify and access training required for career advancement; and help education providers to design training curriculum that best addresses agriculture industry needs. “This is a unique opportunity for Canadian producers to make their labour needs known and to shape the future of the farm labour system in
back into the community after 13 years of absence. “My parents, sisters and their families all live in the area so I’m very happy to be home and I enjoy the outdoors so I’m looking forward to spend time enjoying rural life in the Ottawa Valley,” Dr. Leavey said. She said she’s very pleased to be working as part of the obstetrical team with Dr. Mukherjee and Dr. Yacoub and will be sharing call with them as part of this. “Overall I feel really privileged to be able to come home and support, through my profession, the community I grew up in – it’s really an opportunity to give back,” she said. And PRH chief of staff Dr. Michael Ferri called Dr. Leavey a welcome addition to the medical community. “She is very warm, friendly, and brings with her a great deal of expertise. “We are very pleased that she has joined our team of obstetric and gynaecological experts to provide good gynaecological care, to assist women during their pregnancies and provide safe deliveries for their babies,” Dr. Ferri said.

News - Ottawa Valley native Dr. Sarah Leavey has returned home to join Pembroke Regional Hospital’s medical staff and begin her practice as the community’s third obstetrician-gynaecologist. “We are very happy to welcome Dr. Leavey who joins Dr. Siddhartha Mukherjee and Dr. Ashraf Yacoub in bringing our facility to a full complement of obstetricians/gynaecologists,” said Pierre Noel, Hospital President and CEO. Dr. Leavey, whose parents worked for the Ministry of Natural Resources, grew up in Ontario on the border of Algonquin Park, before moving to the Pembroke area when she was eight where she attended Our Lady of Sorrows elementary school and Bishop Smith Catholic High School. While many of her early summer jobs were based at or related to provincial parks and natural resources, Dr. Leavey said she had a strong interest in science which led her to earn a Bachelor of Science, with Honours in Biomedical Science at the University of Guelph. It was during her time in undergraduate studies that she decided upon a career in

Renfrew and Area Seniors’ Home Support Volunteer
Community - We have had a successful, funfilled, busy year here at Renfrew and Area Seniors’ Home support hosting an array of events, from fun and food to education and awareness. Our annual Christmas luncheon and after-
noon dances/concerts are always well-received and keep people active with toes tapping to our local musical talent. Trivia Night is great fun challenging your mind and your friends to a battle of the wits for a worthwhile cause. The Community Health Fair was an excellent opportunity for our community to have access to over 30 health services and products under one roof. We take part in many different community events throughout the year to make people aware of the services we provide as well
as promote the various volunteering possibilities available within our agency. Events such as Newcomers Night, Art in the Park, County Plowing Match, Family Day and the Christmas Craft Sales are great venues to let our community know what services are available. Renfrew and Area Seniors’ Home Support would like to thank all of our volunteers for your continued support; we recognize the effort and value of their work daily.

So Glad 2 Be Me founder Charbonneau hands over program reins Sherry Haaima
sherry.haaima@metroland.com
News - “I’m not sure if you would remember me, but I attended your So Glad 2 Be Me programs about five years ago. I wanted to let you know that they really shaped who I am, and they made me a better, more confident person! Since attending those programs, I’ve started my own small business, volunteer with the local rescue, and I even entered a pageant! Things that never seemed possible to me as a shy and self-conscious 11-year-old. I still have, and hold dear most of the crafts and projects we made during your programs, and I still have the unicorn cards you bought me too. I am so thankful for your program and how it helped me, and so many other girls.” It’s messages like these that make the whole thing worthwhile for So Glad 2 Be Me founder Jen Charbonneau. This came via a Facebook post from a young woman from Renfrew. After 12 years of delivering the self-esteem boosting program for young girls, Charbonneau of Arnprior has handed over the reins. It was quite the ride. “This is my baby,” said Charbonneau, a mom and businesswoman who put her whole heart into creating So Glad 2 Be Me. “It’s been 12 years of designing, creating and coming up with seven different programs.” Diana Earle of Newcastle, Ont.,
will give So Glad 2 Be Me fresh perspective and a new location. Charbonneau and Earle, an Ontario Power Generation (OPG) inspection technician, met through the EmPOWERed Women leadership program Earle attended through OPG. The So Glad 2 Be Me program helped inspire Earle to get a degree in psychology and also to take the Christopher Leadership Course in public speaking. Through her work at OPG, Earle has learned how much she enjoys teaching others when she began training her colleagues. This knowledge spurred a search to participate in self-development workshops, yoga and meditation retreats, and collaborating with talented and positive men and women. “Life has its way of happening and working itself out for you,” said Charbonneau. After making the decision it was time to move on, Charbonneau set about emailing Diana to see if she’d be interested in taking over. “It’s a whole other area of Ontario,” she said. “And a whole fresh perspective from a young, energetic person. There are more girls to help.” Earle looks forward to the opportunity to help girls bring out the best in themselves and instill self esteem and confidence. When Charbonneau first met Earle, she sensed good things and the two kept in touch for the next while and became friends.
“She has a passion to help young girls,” said Charbonneau. Earle has spent the past few months getting set up and ready and is hosting her first workshops this December. When Charbonneau’s daughter was severely injured in an ATV accident, her focus immediately shifted solely on being there and helping her daughter recover. Charbonneau stepped away from So Glad 2 Be Me, which helped form her eventual decision to pass the program on to Earle. While her daughter is doing very well now it was just time for a change and the transition has been much easier knowing So Glad 2 Be Me is in good hands. Charbonneau is now involved in Jockey clothing and finds it a rewarding, challenging job in which she is continuing her work in promoting self-esteem and female empowerment. The highlights for Charbonneau are many and include the very first summer camp she held at her Arnprior home. “I actually had it all figured out and down to a science,” she said. “It all came together.” A full week in James Bay, northern Ontario working with young girls in the remote community also comes quickly to mind when she looks back over the years. “They really responded to So Sherry Haaima/Metroland Glad 2 Be Me. They needed it,” said So Glad 2 Be Me founder Jen Charbonneau, left, knows the program is in Charbonneau. good hands with Diana Earle.

News -Employers can now apply for funding under Canada Summer Jobs 2015. A news release from the office of MP Cheryl Gallant says the funding will create job opportunities for students across Renfrew-NipissingPembroke and across the country. Funding will be available to hire qualified young people aged 15 to 30, who are full-time students and intend to return to school in the fall. Nationally, it is estimated that up to 35,000 young Canadians will benefit from summer employment, while helping employers address skills shortages. “Since 2000, I have helped many young Canadians obtain experience, training, and skills needed for better jobs,” said Gallant. “As part of the Government of Canada’s Youth Employment Strategy, Canada Summer Jobs helps students gain the skills and experience they need to be successful, now and in the future, while earning money for the upcoming school year. “Regardless of whether an employer has been successful in the past when they applied for funding from this program, “I encourage all employers to make application if they need help to create a summer job for

48 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, December 18, 2014
Donna and Jerome Kunopaskie feed both birds and deer and she says they do get along very well and share the food. All the regulars – jays, chickadees, doves and woodpeckers – visit in the morning each day and the deer arrive about 9:00 in the evening. The birds will feed on the deer mix and the deer will feed on the deer mix and any food put out in the bird feeders. A few weeks ago a raven with a broken wing arrived at the feeders but would not allow Donna to approach it. It fed for a day or two and then left. Ravens are very clever birds and it would very likely survive although it would be unable to fly.
Scene from the Hawk’s Eye place and put it where it could leave if it wanted. She placed the bird in the stocking and cut a place for the feet to extend out and then put it in a box on the porch. When she went to check later in the evening the bird had opened the box and disappeared. Jean said she thought the wing was not broken and with a bit of rest it would be able to fly. The fate of the bird is not known but there was no evidence that it had been killed. We thank Jean for her efforts. COMMON REDPOLLS
Sybil Ferguson sent us this email. Goldfinches, blue jays, chickadees still busy at the feeders. Redpolls arrived at noon today, Dec. 9, 2014. I am excited to see them. Small flock, but past history tells me they multiply quickly. No doubt snow is on its way. Redpolls are very unpredictable in their arrival dates. They depend on the seeds of birch and alder and will travel long distances to find the trees and the food they provide. The best field marks are the red cap (poll) on the forehead and the black chin. The amounts of pink on the chest and belly vary from male to male. The hoary redpoll appears very white and will travel with the common variety to find food.
News – The new McNab-Braeside council is doing away with the public question period at the end of township council meetings. Mayor Tom Peckett explained that instead all council members would be staying around after council meetings to answer public questions or hear comments or complaints one-on-one. If a citizen or organization wants to formerly address all of council, it should apply to be added to the agenda under delegations and presentations, he said. As well, council will hold regular town hall meetings when the public can share their comments and concerns, Peckett added. He said that municipal experts tend to advise
against open question periods because there is no way to prevent people from using them to raise rumours or untruths that could be slanderous to staff or others. RECREATION CENTRE FUNDS
The former township council’s allocation of $15,000 toward the planning of a new recreation facility in the township caught the attention of the new council at its Dec. 2 meeting. Councillors Heather Lang and Mark MacKenzie asked why the issue had been at first withdrawn then eventually carried at the Nov. 25 meeting. Township acting CAO/ clerk Lindsey Parkes explained that the money was approved once it was determined it was available to be allocated. Treasurer Angela
Clarence Bos has hairy woodpeckers coming to his feeder. Woodpeckers are very territorial and mated pairs remain in the same area much of the winter. They will arrive if suet and seeds are provided for them. They will throw seed out of feeders to find the one they want. This helps provide food for the ground feeders, mourning doves, in particular. CBC
We are still accepting help for the Christmas Bird Count on Dec. 20, 2014. Join the other 13,000 Canadians and the 70,000 birders world wide for the count. Enjoy your birding. Ila and Jim Ferguson, 5313 River Road, RR5, Renfrew, Ont. Phone 613-432-2738 or email jameshf@xplornet.com
Lochtie said the money went into a reserve to help fund plans for a new R.A. Centre, as council wanted the township to be ready to move ahead if grants became available. While the idea was to replace the aging Braeside R.A. Centre, it’s up to council whether money would be spent on a facility in Braeside, she added.
Deputy Mayor Brian Armsden said he didn’t want people to think that council was spending money on something “we didn’t campaign for.” “It’s still up to council to decide what we’re doing with recreation in the township,” said Mayor Tom Peckett. “We’ll decide what to use that reserve for.”

Lifestyle - The European starling, an import from Europe, is the hardiest of the fearsome foursome. The redwinged blackbird, common grackle and the brown-headed cowbird are the other three. Flocks of starlings remain all winter and have found ingenious ways of keeping warm and finding food. Very often you will see them perched on a chimney where heat from the furnace below provides warmth for them on a cold day. As for food, they will eat anything but are partial to cracked corn, suet and mixed grain. Karen and Dan Kelly have a flock of five birds coming regularly to their feeders. It seems that they have a system of communicating food sources to other members of the flock. Karen said they started out with one bird and within a day there were five and if tradition holds, there will be many more before long. After their fall moult, the birds’ plumage will be black and speckled with tan and white, their bill will be brown-black. Wear and tear on the feathers in winter causes the tips to wear off and the birds lose their spotted appearance and become iridescent purple and green. The bill becomes yellow. Once the starlings arrive the blue jays do not reign over all at the feeders. Starlings are aggressive and walk over any bird that gets in their way. They are survivors.

Lifestyle - December has been, and will continue to be a jampacked month. January is set to be a relatively quiet month, so December has compensated by being a wildly exciting and busy few weeks. First and foremost, two of St. Josephâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catholic High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charitable focuses of December are the Toy Drive and the Snowsuit Fund. Both of these organizations are open to the public until Dec. 17. The toy drive will accept any new or gently used toy items for children in need. Likewise, the Snowsuit Fund ac-
cepts coats, hats, mittens, boots and any new or gently used winter attire that will help keep families in need warm this Christmas. The annual semi-formal took place on Dec. 12 from 7 to 11 p.m. It was a very high-energy and exciting night that went over very well with the student body. The large turn out made for a night ďŹ lled with dancing, laughter and great memories. At 7 p.m. on Dec. 18, the Christmas Concert will take place. Admission is free, and anyone in the community is welcome to attend and enjoy the copious amounts of talent at St. Joeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The concert will

From baking to birthdays, December was the most wonderful time of the year Mary Cook Memories
Lifestyle - For me, the month of December was the best time of the year. The planks on the wood horses in the summer kitchen were loaded with cake tins and pies wrapped in many layers of newspapers, and then covered with a thick quilt. Mother lived in dread that a mouse would invade what she had spent hours making for Christmas, but Father said they would have to have teeth like a chain-saw to get through all the wrappings Mother had put around every morsel. Every time I went into the summer kitchen, to get wood to load up the wood box, I could smell cinnamon and ginger coming from the mounds on the planks, and I would think to myself what a wonderful time of year was December! Of course, that was the month of my birthday too. But the day came and went like most others, although Mother always made a cake for me, and put in a few coins wrapped in wax paper. That was as far as a birthday celebration went. And my brothers always gave
me something they had made. For the boys that could mean anything from a slingshot for which I had absolutely no use, or a crudely whittled animal. But I was expected to heap abundant thanks on them for whatever they gave me. My sister Audrey, without fail, would take a nickle out of the corner of her hankie, and it would be sitting at my supper plate at night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Too close to Christmasâ&#x20AC;? Mother would say, which meant â&#x20AC;&#x153;donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect anything more than the cake.â&#x20AC;? But sitting around the kitchen table the night of my birthday, in the middle of December, I would feel the utmost contentment. We would linger over our piece of cake, and Mother would get out her harmonica, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d all sing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Happy Birthday.â&#x20AC;? When I was very young I used to sing Happy Birthday dear Mary, until my sister Audrey told me I was just to listen and be quiet. And by the middle of December, the snow would be knee deep, the old Model T would be up on blocks in the drive shed, and everywhere we went, we traveled in the cutter
or the ďŹ&#x201A;at-bottom sleigh. By then Father would have attached the brass bells to the horseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harness, and I would think there wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a more wonderful sound in the entire world than those bells, especially if we were traveling at night and the moon was out, and the ďŹ elds looked as if they were covered with millions of diamonds. I would invariably fall asleep under the heavy blankets with the hot bricks at our feet, listening to those sleigh bells. I would think that time of year was the most wonderful of any month before or after, and never once did I think we were poor. I would think we were the richest people in the world. In December, Turkey Fair would have come and gone, and I would know that the blue sugar bowl would be fuller than at any other time of the year. And it was in December that our order from Eatonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s catalogue would arrive, delivered right to our door by the mailman. The excitement of opening the parcel (always wrapped in heavy brown paper, and tied with thick cord) once the kitchen had been red-
LOOK IN TODAYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S
ded up after supper, was right up there with getting new hair ribbons, or having a ďŹ ve cent ice cream cone from Briscoes General Store. And it was in December that we would collect the many new calendars handed out free of charge from so many of the stores in Renfrew. Most had beautiful coloured pictures of mountains, or big black horses, and always my favourite, from Scottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hardware, a picture of Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret Rose in their smocked dresses and strings of pearls. The Rexall calendar was Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favourite, and it went right to the cow byre. It was always a blue colour, and
on the monthly sheets, which were the full size of the calendar, were lists of new medicines to treat everything from the common cold, to dealing with livestock ailments, which was of interest to Father. And as the month went on, I would be ďŹ lled with the utmost excitement, knowing Christmas was just days away. Although presents were few and far between, I knew for a fact that Santa Claus would come. He never forgot my house on the Northcote Side Road. Always he left me a book, and a toy of the simplest kind, and there would be new hand knit mitts, and always the orange in the toe of my stocking.
So all December would be one of sheer joy of the season and what it meant. My life would be ďŹ lled with anticipation. Special church services, neighbours coming to visit, the school concert, secret trips by Mother and Father into Renfrew, and if we were lucky, the hand-me-down box from Aunt Lizzie would arrive in time for Christmas. December would spin by, even though I would pray that it would go on forever. Nothing could take away from me that feeling of sheer joy that month brought. When I was very young, and unaware of the hardships around me, December was always the most wonderful month of the year.

This weeks puzzle answers in next weeks issue
Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
