FATALITY, ARSON

Twenty-five years in municipal office have ended for Sandi Heins, after losing the race for Renfrew mayor to Bill Ringrose Monday night. Ringrose appeared to turn the corner in the campaign with a hard-hitting take on Heins’ leadership style at the all-candidates meeting Oct. 13. Almost two weeks later, Heins was still smarting from Ringrose’s criticisim that her leadership style lacked delegation and that council unnecessarily went into in-camera sessions far too often. She admits she was taken aback by the criticism, but said the result was probably more about the local demand for change. During the campaign local Toyota dealers Dave and Warren La Rocque offered $500 to each new council candidate for their campaigns. Ringrose didn’t qualify, as a current council member. Ringrose ran a campaign on the need for change in how council is led. “I came into this evening feeling reasonably confident because of what I heard on the street and what people said when they called to wish me well,” said the 64-year-old Ringrose, who took a convincing early lead in the electronic voting, by a margin of 892 to 652. Heins prevailed in the very small portion of votes, from the long-term care homes and hospital, 61 to 35, but Ringrose won the paper-ballot portion, 550 to 437. That resulted in a final tally of 1,477 for Ringrose, 1,150 for Heins, and 615 for Callum Scott. Ringrose said he received a lot of feedback about local residents’ desire for change before election night. See Page 4

ELECTION

Vote of confidence for Briscoe, two new councillors LUCY HASS lucy.hass@metroland.com

COUNCILLOR RACE Ward One councillor Dirk Rook was the lone acclamation to council. In Ward Two, incumbent councillor Bob Dick defeated challenger John Holyer 131 to 69. “I look forward to working with the new council,” the 13year council veteran told The Mercury. Dick says he believes money is going to be a big issue moving forward into the next term, and

New Admaston-Bromley councillor Michael Donohue congratulates challenger Susan Kallies on a race well run. Mercury photos by Lucy Hass he is ready to tackle the issues as they arise with a spirit of negotiation and compromise. In Ward Three, Ray Pender got past Donna Blimkie 281 votes to 210. Pender was away at a family event in Ayers Rock, Australia Monday night but accepted an invitation from The Mercury to e-mail a message to his community newspaper. “I am honoured to have been elected to Admaston-Bromley Township Council,” the Renfrew County Agricultural Wall of Fame member wrote. “A special thank you to the voters of Ward 3 for your support. I will endeavour to be a team player to help make common sense decisions on council,” he said. Ward Four was clinched by Mike Donohue who defeated Susan Kallies 213 to 114. Donohue looks forward to the challenge of serving on council and fighting for AdmastonBromley to get its fair share. He believes the top issue boils down to money management. Aside from watching the bud-

get, he wants to seek alternative sources of revenue, look at the property tax system, and press the provincial government for gas tax money. He said council should “be squeezing a lot more dollars from where I think we should be getting a lot more dollars.” “The federal government, I think, absolutely, is spot on in distributing the gas tax money to all municipalities. The province is only giving it to transit systems, which is ridiculous,” he said. “By and large, the more impoverished parts of the province are the rural parts,” said Donohue. “Everything we do here, we have to jump in the car to do it. We do not have access to public transit. So everything we do, we’re kicking in some gas tax money and we’re kicking it toward transit system in the urban areas. And that’s ridiculous.” STRONG MARGIN Mayor Briscoe held her seat by a 296-vote spread, and said she

said of the issue. “It’s just a wee kernel; you know, a seed right now, and I just can’t believe that after we get through the doctors crisis, and we’re getting through that very well, I think, by getting doctors on board we’re going to be able to move into the economic development side where we’re going to look at making Renfrew and area the centre of excellence, as it already is, but expanding it for health and wellness services – one-stop shopping.” Briscoe is also happy with her new council, created when Councillor Kelly moved up to challenge the mayor’s seat and Councillor Sandra Crozier chose to not seek re-election. Councillors Donohue and Pender are no strangers to the community. “I’ve known both of them for many, many years,” she said. “They are both different individuals. They’re going to bring to the table some absolutely different life experiences and that just makes the mix even better.”

Incumbent Raye-Anne Briscoe will continue to serve her community as mayor of AdmastonBromley Township. After 10 years of acclamation for the top office in AdmastonBromley Township, Briscoe defeated challenger Jack Kelly by a vote of 743 to 447. In her acceptance address, Briscoe praised long-time councillor Kelly. “I want to congratulate my opponent, Jack Kelly. Jack ran a really good and decent campaign,” she said. “Jack has been a wonderful councillor for a long time and given a whole lot to our community,” she said to a round applause from the close to 30 people gathered to watch the results roll in at the municipal office. She also congratulated her newly-elected council of acclaimed Ward One councillor Dirk Rook, incumbent Bob Dick in Ward Two, and newcomers Ray Pender in Ward Three and Michael Donohue in Ward Four. “I respect and appreciate the work done by Donna Blimkie and by Susan Kallies (challengers in Wards Three and Four respectively) and there’s always another time,” she said to the sound of more generous applause.

was grateful for the support. “I have to thank everybody, of course, for the support I received tonight. It is absolutely unbelievable,” she said in her acceptance speech. “Neighbours, thank you very much. We’ve got a great four years ahead of us; with your help I hope it will be absolutely as rewarding as all the other terms have been,” she told the gathering. She also extended special thanks to all who helped with her campaign, and to staff who oversaw the election. Speaking to The Mercury afterwards, Briscoe’s spirit was buoyant. “It was a test of my mettle. It took me 10 years to get tested and democracy was a good thing. I earned my place,” the mayor said, referring to 10 years of acclamation to office after the amalgamation of Bromley and Admaston townships in 2000. “I’m awful proud of my community. I really am,” she said. “I’m going to have a grand council; just a superb council.” As for the challenges that lie ahead over the next four years, it all comes down to finances. “There’s one major challenge and that is financing – absolutely,” Mayor Briscoe said. “We know that the federal government, the provincial government, their largesse is over. My critical challenge will be, this municipality has always progressed, and that has to continue. But how do we finance that, where do we find the revenue,” she said. “And it can’t come all the time from the tax base. There’s a limit.” She is also delighted to be able to move forward with the health village initiative that has rallied the neighbouring communities of Admaston-Bromley, Renfrew, Horton and Greater Madawaska. “I’m so proud of that one,” she

ELECTION

Horton voters call Eady the man to run township PETER CLARK peter.clark@metroland.com

Don Eady prevailed over Dave Bennett in a battle of municipal political veterans, and first-time candidate Rod Ballantyne to win the mayor’s seat in Horton Township Monday evening. Eady posted 847 votes to 447 for Bennett and 344 for Ballantyne to take over from retiring mayor Bob Johnston. Incumbent Bob Kingsbury is back at the council table after garnering 762 votes. Leading the way for council were newcomer Glen Campbell with a leading 849 votes, and former Arnprior councillor Margaret Whyte with 843. Jamey Larone earned the fourth seat with 609 votes. An interesting race developed as Sheri Sexton posted 570 votes while David Brown held his own with 540. Rounding out the 11 candidates for council were Theresa Lonergan 426, Richard Walker 326, Greg Zavitske 315, Tony Dorzek 273 and Ray Cunningham 218. Mayor-elect Eady said he was surprised to claim the position by a 400-point margin. “I didn’t think I’d win by that much. I feel very humble, very humble,” he said. “It’s very much appreciated.

“I had a team of people helping me. It is not just a Don Eady effort. “I think we have the makings of a pretty good council for the next four years,” he added. Eady was quick to applaud the work of all the candidates who ran for mayor or council. “I credit everyone who put their name in. They should be proud of their efforts.” Kingsbury is happy to be called upon to serve the residents of Horton for another four years. “I’m very pleased to be elected. We’ll do well for the next four years,” Kingsbury said of the mayor and new council. “We’ll have a lot of new ideas. “I thank the people who supported me.” Whyte said a challenge lies ahead, but is pleased to be able to serve the people of Horton. “It was an exciting race,” Whyte said. “Now the work starts. It’s a good challenge and I’m looking forward to it.” En route to her victory, Anne Smith received 214 votes to Bruce McIntyre’s 144 from Horton voters in the race for Renfrew County Catholic District school board trustee. The 2010 Horton election drew 1,638 voters.

New mayor and two entirely new councillors in the mix

Continued from front

“They’re expecting some change and this council needs to provide that, and I think I will.” The race for reeve ended with incumbent Audrey Green prevailing over challenger and current councillor Kate Windle. Green took a commanding lead of 1,148 to 822 in the electronic vote, before winning handily, 1,930 to 1,270. After her victory, Green expressed satisfaction with her election as reeve for a fifth straight term, and the extension of her 34 years in municipal politics. “All I can say is I’ll give the kind of service I’ve always given, and maybe even more,” said the 70-something Green. “I work hard. I worked very hard in this election because I still feel I have a lot to give, and there’s always things that need to be done.” Green also expressed surprise with Ringrose’s win in a mayoral race that she says featured three totally different candidates. Third-place Scott was running for the second straight time, but didn’t collect as many votes as last time, despite good response to his comments at the all-candidates forum.

“I’ve opened up some people’s eyes, but it wasn’t enough eyes,” said Scott. Green said Scott has a lot to offer the town, but that he should first consider running as a councillor “because he needs to get experience.” Scott, 54, says he’ll never do that. In fact, he says this is his last try at municipal politics, arguing he can’t put up with the arrogance displayed at council over the last 10 years. “It would just be a waste of my time,” he concluded. Having referred to council as the dysfunctional seven, he says the new council will now be a “dysfunctional four” with three new councillors. He also warns that Renfrew residents can brace for major tax hikes if a new pool is built. Eight candidates vied for five positions of councillor. Incumbent Gail Cole topped the polls with 2,255, followed by Tom Anderson’s 2,144 after garnering the second most votes in the election four years ago. “I am surprised to be leading. I’m gratified to be leading,” said Cole. “It feels very wonderful.” Local businessman Clint McWhirter, a councillor three terms ago, was elected with 2,063

Incumbent Emon re-elected reeve in Greater Madawaska Township SHERRY HAAIMA shaaima@msn.com

With a mix of incumbents and new faces at the council table, Greater Madawaska township council will have the benefit of experience along with fresh ideas. Reeve Peter Emon, after a convincing win in Monday’s municipal election, said he looks forward to getting to work with incumbent Karin Lehnhardt and newcomers Brian Hunt, Glenda McKay and Bruno Kierczak “They are four people with a great deal of skill and enthusiasm,” he said. Emon earned 1,446 votes to defeat sitting councillor John Pratt (799) and JR Easton (380), who was a reeve in the Bagot and Blythfield part of the township in the 1990s. Emon, a Community Mental Health crisis worker, said he had a pretty good feeling going into the election after speaking with constituents along the campaign trail. “Most people want us to continue to focus on upgrading our roads network as well as equipment,” said Emon. Waste management will also be an ongoing issue for the township. Both the strategic plan and development charge bylaw will be increasingly important going forward. “These two documents are going to be very significant. We face a lot of work,” said Emon. Keeping apprised of and accessing grants and funding will continue to be key in the township, said Emon. The closest race of the evening played out in Ward 3 (Griffith and Matawatchan) where incumbent Lehnhardt eked out a win (242) over JP Degrandmont (217), with Allan Pennock trailing (134). Lehnhardt has more than a dozen years of council experience. Ward 1 sees newcomers Hunt (786), a retired business manager and former owner of Jocko’s Beach, and retired Bell

VOTER TURNOUT Of 4,852 potential electors, 2,650 individuals cast ballots or 54.62 per cent of the population. This number is up from last time when 41 per cent voted. It’s the second time around for the voteby-mail system in Greater Madawaska and by all accounts, it’s a success. Council and staff are pleased that voter participation is up. Council opted for voteby-mail with an eye to providing a service accessible to everyone, regardless of access to high-speed Internet or a touchtone telephone, said Emon. In light of the problems experienced in several municipalities with an online voting system, the choice may have saved the municipality some headaches. Newly elected Ward 1 Coun.

OPINION EDITORIAL

LETTER

Show me the money D

Remember 2-Minute Wave of Silence on Nov. 11

ecember marks the start of new terms of municipal council across the province. Across our readership area, newly-elected politicians already seem to agree on one point – the next four years will be all about the money; money that won’t be easily pried from provincial and federal coffers. Meanwhile life goes on and age-old challenges of small-town politics remain – emergencies to address, routine repairs and equipment replacements to be made, programs to fund, and staff to pay. The recession has taken its toll across the broader economy, and we’re far from out of the woods. But when the turnaround comes it will clearly be a double-edged sword for municipal councils everywhere. As finances improve, the ante will be upped as a struggling workforce seeks compensation for the pocketbook hit of recent years. A quick look at any municipal budget shows that wages and benefits are a sizeable chunk of any municipal budget. Human resources is an area whose impact and importance cannot be dismissed or downplayed. Money management will be a buzzword on the municipal scene over the next four years. It will be interesting to see where communities choose to invest, and why.

Extremism our generation’s burden to bear TWO SIDES

Last week I was moved by an e-mail that arrived at my in-box. It spoke of more senseless suicides in the United States, this time young Christians harassed to the point of taking their own lives. The author bemoaned media bias, and a “sad world” where only one side of a story is told. A simple flick through American TV channels and viewing the Internet, you can understand the frustration. Extremeleft and extreme-right media continue to spin their tired messages, designed to massage their target markets and tell them what they want to hear. They are seldom challenged. Along the way, the truth is lost. But the truth is always there – hovering at the centre of healthy debate, in the moderate voice of the majority. But when it comes to bullying there is no room for debate. It is just plain wrong – any time, anywhere. My sympathy goes out to any family that has ever had to deal with the pain of suicide, whatever the source.

LUCY HASS MISCELLANY The problem is simple: too many bullies and not enough kind hearts. Hopefully one day people will understand that life is always better when we progress as one; when we accept that we are all equal. But this critical shift to centre will have to come from a future generation, because it is clear our current generation of misguided adults playing right-versus-left is at the root of all this madness. That is our generation’s burden to bear. I wish every success to the next.

To the editor: To the general public of Renfrew and surrounding area: In recent years, the members of The Royal Canadian Legion have asked the towns and cities, schools, businesses and churches, and citizens of Canada to stop for two minutes at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11 and pay special tribute to the 116,000 Canadians who have given their lives in war to defend Canada. The silence begins in Newfoundland and sweeps across the country like a wave, as the clock strikes 11 a.m. in each time zone. The objective is simply to allow as many Canadians as possible to participate in Remembrance Day. The “Wave of Silence” has received resounding support from Canadians in all parts of Canada. In previous years, trains stopped, factory workers paused and school children participated in record numbers in remembering the heroic sacrifices of the men and women who went to war in the 20th century. We come to you again this year to solicit your support for the 2 Minute Wave of Silence. We urge you to encourage your staff and clients, your students and neighbours to sustain the momentum achieved in the observance of Remembrance and in the special tribute paid to the men and women to whom all Canadians owe so much. Thank you for your support. Please help us to make the 2 Minute Wave of Silence a continuing tradition of Remembrance in Canada. Yours sincerely, Greg Walbeck President Renfrew Branch 148 Royal Canadian Legion

Calling out for Christmas REBEKA BORSHEVSKY rborshevsky@metroland.com

Christmas is one of my favourite times of year. The hymns. The smell of baking cookies and the sound of laughter. Family. Friends. Feeling as though you have all the time in the world to enjoy the gifts you’ve been given (and I don’t mean Rebekah the presBorshevsky ents). This year I’ve been given the opportunity to be a co-op student here at The Mercury. Also, I’ve been given the responsibility to be overseer of the Christmas supplement. Which is really exciting, because I’ve got lots of ideas. But I can’t do it on my own. I need your help. Yes, I know, a teenager actually admitting they need help with something is rare, but it’s true. For this year’s supplement to be really special, I want to know what makes your Christmas a holiday worth remembering. The theme this year is a family Christmas. So I’m calling out for your family recipes, family memories in form of short stories or poems, Christmas drawings and sketches, even photos of special arts and crafts some of you may have made with your kids. For short stories, please make sure you limit it to 350 words and under. For poems, the limit is 20 lines, though there’s no limit to your style – haiku, free verse, rhyme. All will be accepted and reviewed. Your photos, stories, recipes, poems, drawings or sketches can be sent to me via my email rborshevsky@metroland.com or drop them off at The Renfrew Mercury office at 35 Opeongo Road in Renfrew. The deadline for your submissions is noon Friday, Nov. 19. If you’re interested in advertising in this feature, contact stephanie.jamieson@metroland. com or david.gallagher@metroland.com. They’ll be happy to help you share your Christmas greetings with our readers. The deadline for advertising is 4 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 2. I look forward to seeing what makes Christmas in Renfrew and the surrounding area special for you, because I know nothing beats Christmas in the Valley.

ELECTION Proulx fifth, but needed fourth Harold Weckworth was among five acclaimed leaders of council in Monday night’s municipal elections across Renfrew County. The other council members had to conduct campaigns to win their seats, but all four incumbents did just that. Incumbents Kevin Clarke, Lorenz Kelo, Ruth Schoenfeldt and John Keuhl were returned to office with respective vote totals of 917, 814, 795 and 773. Renfrew barber and Golden Lake resident Barry Proulx was not elected after placing a distant fifth with 574 votes. Next in line were Dan Neville with 543 votes, Melvin Berndt 463, Thomas White 452 and Robert Atkinson 443.

Mary Campbell was re-elected head of council along with three new members in McNab-Braeside Tuesday. Campbell defeated Deputy Mayor Elmer Raycroft 1,684 to 1,194 in a showdown between two council members who often clashed in the last four years. Newcomer Christine Blimkie (Sauve) becomes the new deputy mayor, defeating sitting councillor Andy Dunlop 1,552 to 1,257. Former council member Aldene Styles topped the councillor poll with 2,140 votes. She is joined on council by incumbent Brad McIlquham with 1,989 votes and newcomer Robert Campbell at 1,648. Trailing were newcomers Moira Hutchison with 898 and Marilyn Tilley with 838. The vote count was delayed an hour after some people had trou-

ble voting in the last two hours. Township CAO Noreen Mellema gathered the candidates together about 8:30 p.m. and asked them whether they wished to extend the voting an hour or a day, as Arnprior had done. The candidates unanimously agreed with the hour extension. Campbell said she is gratified to receive a “clear mandate” to continue cautiously in her efforts to ensure McNab-Braeside survives as an independent rural municipality. She said she will be proposing a number of ways council can better consult with ratepayers on issues of importance to the township. With society and municipal roles changing, it’s more important than ever to involve citizens in decisions. “We’ve got an awesome, awesome council,” said Blimkie, who was successful in getting elected in her third try.

Major upset win for Murphy STEVE NEWMAN

EMINENCE

100% ORGANIC SKIN CARE

steve.newman@metroland.com

It figured to be an uphill battle, as Jennifer Murphy challenged Mayor Zig Mintha for the leadership of Bonnechere Valley council. Mintha, who had already expressed his intentions at Renfrew County council last month to pursue the position of warden, won’t get that opportunity this time around. Mintha lost the election to Murphy, who led by a slim margin from the outset. Awaiting late results, Murphy was outside the Eganville Royal Canadian Legion election headquarters when she heard a big commotion and quickly returned indoors. With a delayed reaction, she realized she was looking at the final tally. She was the winner. The final count was 1,313 to 1,205 after holding earlier leads closer to 50 votes. “This is like the day after I married Dave,” said Murphy, 41, after a long night of post-election celebrations. “I’m excited about the future. I’m so happy. I can’t think of a time I was so happy. It’s almost surreal,” said Murphy, whom many Renfrew residents may know as the co-owner of Murphy’s Auto in town. The victory came after campaigning hard, much of it in conjunction with councillor-candidate Jack Roesner. The owner of Dixie Lee shared her appreciation that a municipality should be run like a business, said Murphy. “We were a pretty good team,” said Murphy after Roesner also prevailed, winning Ward 2 over incumbent Merv Buckwald. “I think people wanted a change,” says Murphy of the mayoral results. “I think they wanted a fresh voice. I don’t think this is as much about me as it was that the taxpayers thought it was time.” Mintha’s announcement to run for county warden may also have been perceived as premature, said Murphy. Voters may have thought Mintha was jumping the gun, even though he acknowledged he obviously had to win the mayoral election to remain in the running. If election signs were any indicator, Mintha was the front-runner. But Murphy said she had 70 signs up and only offered to people who asked for them. “I don’t believe signs win elections,” said Murphy. Mintha didn’t take his last election loss well − to Arlene Felhaber in 2000 in the first municipal election for the newly-amalgamated Township of Bonnechere Valley. But he reacted differently this time. “I’m not crying about it. Life

Mercury photo by Lucy Hass goes on,” he said Tuesday morning. “I’m disappointed,” added the 68-year-old, noting he can now enjoy more time with family members. “It’s not the end of the world. There are bigger people that have lost elections.” His loss, figures Mintha, had something to do with his several years in politics. “I don’t know,” he says, trying to find the words. “If you’re in seven or eight or 10 years, people start talking about change.” Mintha, who was a previous reeve of Eganville as well as Bonnechere Valley mayor for two terms, also complimented

Murphy on her victory. “She ran a strong campaign. She did very well and I commend her,” he said. “It seems there was a youth movement, and that’s okay too.” With the win in the bag, Murphy said, “I think I worked very hard for this, and I’m honoured. I’m humbled. “I’m ready to serve. I’m ready to learn and make the most of the next four years.” The council is completed by incumbents Charlotte Neitzel, Bob Peltzer and Cairine Cybulski in Wards 1, 3 and 4 respectively. The closest race was Ward 4, with Cybulski defeating Robert Harris, 268 to 184.

Newer, but not-so-expensive, digs STEVE NEWMAN

steve.newman@metroland.com

There have been a lot of unfamiliar changes to the Renfrew fire department recently. After about a year’s work to do the first major renovations to the building in about 40 years, Chief Guy Longtin and his fellow firefighters showed off their premises Oct. 23. The four-hour open house gave members of the public a chance to see all the new changes to the second-storey living and working quarters. An estimated $125,000 in labour and parts ended up costing closer to $38,000 because most of the work was done by the firefighters. The second-storey quarters occupy about 2,400 square feet while featuring such new offerings as a locker room, a large meeting room and new captains’ quarters. “I think it’s pretty nice,” says firefighter Chad Barker, who joined the full-time fire department in 2006. “I haven’t been here that long, but it’s definitely a nicer place to work now. It’s not as black.” Chief Longtin concurs. “It’s brightened things up. The firefighters have taken ownership in the building. The pride is there and there’s space to do things.” The open-concept, second-storey living and working quarters include a large classroom for table-top exercises, post-in-

cident meetings and debriefings. There was no such facility before. Also new is an office for the captains, Rob Dougherty and Barry Griese, in addition to a separate room for 10 full-time firefighters. The department’s other fulltimer, Chief Guy Longtin, jovially points out that he doesn’t have a separate locker, just a large closet. Previously, the captains shared a much smaller space in the communications room. The changes also occurred with the Renfrew Industrial Commission relocating across town. That left more room to accommodate such features as a living room, locker room, two-bed dorm, second bathroom and kitchen. “We were getting crowded. We were running out of space,” said Longtin. New furniture and kitchen cabinets, and a large high-definition television screen, were paid for by the firefighters. The older furniture is being used for other town facilities, says Longtin. A nice change is the glassed in fire pole, which drops about 18 feet to the first floor. The pole was previously closed off because diesel fuel from the truck fleet was circulating upstairs. Now the pole is visible behind a glass encasing, which can be opened quickly for firefighters to slide to the lower level to respond to fire calls. The department also includes up to 15 volunteer firefighters. At present there are 13.

Birth of a hospital insider Nicolas Ruszkowski

Nicolas Ruszkowski VP, Communications Ottawa Hospital In 1992, I moved in with my Polish grandparents; Babcia (grandma) and Dziadzio (grandpa). Before long, I noticed my grandmother’s calling as a person who communicated, rather frequently, with Ottawa’s hospital establishment. One day, I found a ﬁle folder that belonged to Babcia. It was literally bursting at the seams, ﬁlled with two dozen letters to hospital CEOs around the city. “Wait times are too long,” she wrote. Why are emergency departments so busy? Why don’t I have easier access to my patient records? Can you do more to manage the pain I’ve had since my hip replacement? Are those child-like people in white lab coats really doctors? Now, in my role as Vice-President, Communications and Outreach at The Ottawa Hospital, I often think of Babcia. Wait times, high occupancy, patient records,

pain management, quality and safety of care; the issues she worried about then are still completely relevant today. How would she feel about that? She would hate that we still deal with the same problems, but she’d appreciate our progress. She would love writing to one hospital CEO, instead of three, since the merger of the General, Civic and Riverside hospitals into The Ottawa Hospital. She would be impressed to know The Ottawa Hospital serves 1.2 million Eastern Ontarians, and sees more patients in a year than any other academic health science centre in Canada. She would remind me that hospitals, imperfect or not, were always there for her and Dziadzio. Fractures were painful, but surgeries allowed my grandparents to walk well into their nineties. She would want to know what hospitals do, in spite of their challenges, to ensure they still provide the comfort, care and hope our communities need to keep thriving. This column is for Babcia, and anyone else who cares about their healthcare. Nicolas Ruszkowski is VP, Communications and Outreach at The Ottawa Hospital. Each week, he will share behind-the-scenes insight from the hospital. E-mail him at nruszkowski@toh.on.ca

Reaching for the rainbow steve.newman@metroland.com

The Sunshine Coach has transported people with disabilities to their destinations for 25 years, but the service represents so much more. It’s about connecting with people in Canadian communities, in which accessibility remains a challenge. It’s also a challenge the Renfrew-and-area community responded to with flying colours, in Sunday’s 25th anniversary of the Reach for the Rainbow Telethon. Sunshine Coach administrator Norm Dagg said it wasn’t essential to break the record of $61,773 set last year, but to show strong support for the cause. But the record still fell, with a new total of $62,040. Dagg, who was at the helm of his second-straight telethon, was impressed. The result “shows the esteem with which the Sunshine Coach is held,” said Dagg. “We’re just thrilled. They (members of the community) just keep sucking it up despite how hard economic times are.” Contributions varied, from a few dollars to $4,500 from a Bell Canada golf tournament. One contributor was Thomas McNulty, who donated a good bucket of pennies to the cause, while one of the several volunteer-based organizations backing the telethon was the Loyal Orange Lodge with a $500 donation. “It’s important,” said LOL member Jim Logan. “For one thing, we’re getting up in age ourselves. It’s a way to transport people, and helping others is one of the mottos of the lodge.” Gary Charter, who was part of Fifth Street, which served as the telethon house band more than 20 years ago, sat in the audience watching the televised entertainment. He called the Sunshine Coach a “fantastic” service. “I know I’ve had to use it for my mom and my dad, and my wife used it for years.” The service has existed for 25 years, and Dagg said he’s looking forward to another 25 years of service for the area. “People want Sunshine Coach, and they want people to be able to participate at all levels of ability.” Twenty-six years ago, Sunshine Coach got underway with assistance from Variety Village in Toronto that served disabled members of the community. That first year the one coach made 1,085 trips. Now the service provides more than 20,000 trips (a round trip counts as two

trips) per year with the help of the telethon, other fundraising, and provincial and municipal government funds. The local service features five part-time and three full-time drivers, including Neil Virgin, a Sunshine Coach driver for 18 years. “Having the service that we have in a small town, we’re the envy of a lot of people (in the Ottawa Valley),” said Virgin of the service that he says represents a lot more than transportation. Lee Sharpe says being part of the service is in her blood, partly because she moved to Renfrew after falling in love with a disabled man who benefited from Sunshine Coach. Sharpe, the long-time Sunshine Coach administrator until two years ago, still sits on the Sunshine C o a c h ’ s Friends of the Disabled board of directors. Twentyfive years ago, wheelchair-accessible facilities in Renfrew were few and far between, says Sharpe. “The only ramp was at the rec centre, and that Lee Sharpe, the former was a tough push, and it long-time administrative for still is.” Sunshine Coach, and ColAccessibilleen Sheehan of the Friends ity for the of the Disabled cut the 25th disabled is anniversary cake. improving, but there’s room for much more improvement, she adds. She credits Doug Headrick for his inspiration. “He was the main cog in the wheel that did all the writing and research to contact the Variety Club that gave us our first vehicle.” Twenty-five years later, Sharpe remains involved, and she wouldn’t have it any other way. “It was like my baby, my child. You stay in contact with something you started.”

BOOKS

Wilderness guide authors book An Ojibway proverb states, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you find fear in your heart, go into the mountains, stand high on the peak, watch the storm come from the horizon, see the lightning and hear the thunder and know that all this power is small in comparison to the power of the Great Spirit with which he has to protect you.â&#x20AC;? So finding fear in his own heart, Tim Yearington, a former Calabogie wilderness guide, did just that. And from what he learned in the mountains of the Madawaska Highlands he wrote a book to share what he found. Timâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new book, That Native Thing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Exploring the Medicine Wheel has just been published by Borealis Press in Ottawa. Yearington shares, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was lost for years. Ever since I was a boy I felt I was part Native but I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t prove it because I was adopted. There was a big part of me missing.â&#x20AC;? He continues, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I pined for something to soothe the ache in my heart, something to bring me peace. Guiding and making hiking trails in the mountains near Calabogie, I began to see how the land, its plants, trees, animals and birds were teaching me about myself. It was profound. It was like the whole wilderness was talking to my spirit.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Guided by my own journeys into the wilderness, I found myself upon a sacred path that led me to the wisdom of the medicine wheel. And along the way I found my own true colours and the lost part of me that had been missing for so long.â&#x20AC;? Yearington explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The medicine wheel is a compass that helps us find our way using the four directions of east, south,

west and north. On the surface, symbolized by the colours yellow, red, black and white, the medicine wheel reveals the harmony that will be created on Mother Earth when the four root races of all people come together as one. It shows us, really, that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nativeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to the earth.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;But at a deeper level,â&#x20AC;? he says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the four directions hold â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;medicineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that teach us about the four parts we all have: the emotional, physical, spiritual and mental parts of our self. The teachings of the medicine wheel help us balance our four parts in order to bring harmony to our â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;earthwalkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and make peace with ourselves in life.â&#x20AC;? Rooted in his adventures at places such as Eagleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nest Lookout near Calabogie, the book paints a beautiful picture of the spirit of Native philosophy. In addition to telling the story of Yearingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own journey, the book shares the origins of the medicine wheel and draws parallels with ancient â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;stone circlesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; still standing in Europe. The balance of the 146 page book presents the colourful wisdom of the medicine wheel and how to apply it to oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. This fascinating, inspiring book is beautifully illustrated in colour with Timâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own paintings, artwork, photos and diagrams. Come and meet Yearington and learn how that native thing called the medicine wheel is good medicine for us all. Yearington will be doing a book signing and reading at the Greater Madawaska Public Library in Calabogie on Saturday, Oct. 30 from 2 to 4 p.m. A donation of $5 from each book sold will go towards library fundraising.

The Renfrew Mercury - October 28, 2010

ART

Artistic camaraderie DIANA WAKELY

Renfrew Art Guild

Why do we join organizations? For friendship or for companionship? Probably. Why should you join an artist’s group? Well, for one thing, artists should probably not work in a vacuum. Funny enough I received an email from artist Robert Genn who is what I call a literary artist. He sends out twice weekly e-mails talking about everything pertaining to artists and the art world. What was he talking about today? He was referring to artists and being cuckoo. Basically he was talking about the need of most artists to break loose and be crazy, or in this case be cuckoo. Artists are a strange breed and being creative is part of that. We are always looking at things different than our left-brain counter-parts. We can look at the autumn colours and picture it on canvas. Our left brain friends are seeing bags and bags of leaves to be raked. Snow blows and the wind howls – artists see the different values of a snow bank from stark white to shades of blue and purple. Our friends see a pile of snow that needs to be shoveled. If we draw a person, someone will say, “I can’t even draw stick people.” My answer to that is, if everyone could draw or paint, who would buy our paintings? It is even more of a reason why we should gather together in art guilds or the like. It is better to be with those of like mind than alone. What a better segue than to join us at our regular Renfrew Art Guild meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 2 at 7 p.m. We meet at Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church, 291 Plaunt St., Renfrew. Our special guest is Margaret Ferraro, an internationally acclaimed pastel artist who lives just west of Ottawa. This will be the second time Margaret has graced us with her talent. She teaches graphite and pencil crayon but her wonderful paintings in pastel are breathtaking. A TIME TO DANCE Her present exhibition will be at the Crichton Cultural Community Centre in Ottawa, Nov. 14 and 26 to 28 entitled A Time to Dance. Her paintings will be set to music. You can check out her web site www.ferraro-art.com. Please join us. Everyone is welcome, Nov. 2 at 7 p.m. at TrinitySt. Andrew’s United Church in Renfrew. For more information, call Diana at 613-433-3635.

#3647 Blynx

#3667 Sawyer

Blynx is a shy gentle cat who enjoys the company of his peers and would do well in a home with another cat or even a dog. The six-year-old neutered male came to the shelter after his owners moved away, left him with friends and never returned. Blynx enjoys being petted and is affectionate once he is comfortable with you. He is fascinated by water and likes to play in the sink or water dishes. Blynx would do well in a quiet, adult home.

Sawyer is a gentle kitty who would be great with children. The three-year-old neutered male has been at the shelter since February when he was brought in to ﬁnd a new home. Sawyer is affectionate, talkative and very social. He is curious and likes to explore. This outgoing cat gets along well with most other cats but can be a bit bossy.

Supplies the shelter needs: liquid laundry soap, paper towels, dry kitten food and Whiskas meaty selections dry cat food.

The shelter is collecting UPC codes from all bags of Whiskas dry cat food until the end of December 2010.

job.” The gathering was also to thank supporters, like campaign manager and goddaughter Andrea Blackburn of Burnstown and student trustee Dustin Garron at St. Joseph’s Catholic High School. McIntyre was philosophical and practical about the loss. “It’s tough to beat the incumbent. It’s an uphill battle,” he said. With seven children at home, including four foster children, McIntyre also admitted wife Karen had mixed emotions. “She’s disappointed, but she’s also happy because we’re busy enough in our household,” said McIntyre, who’s also the fulltime Renfrew County media liaison and grants coordinator, and a volunteer whose activities include hosting a show on Valley Heritage Radio.

Anne Smith of Cobden prevailed over Bruce McIntyre of Renfrew in the only two-candidate race for a berth on the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board. All other positions on the Catholic board were acclaimed, but Smith didn’t know for sure that she’d won until this morning (Oct. 26). “He was a tough contestant,” said Smith. “I’m surprised I won.” In Renfrew, the race was neck and neck to start, with Smith leading 291 to 282 following the electronic vote. With the votes added from the long-term care homes and Renfrew Victoria Hospital, her lead shrank to 310305. However, McIntyre, who campaigned for more transparency, no cell phones in the classroom and year-round schooling, figured Smith sewed up victory with larger winning margins in Horton (214-144) and Whitewater Region (197-112). Add in the eventual and entire Renfrew count, which became available after midnight, and Renfrew voters supported Smith 953-759 for a final winning margin of 1,364-1,015. “It certainly was a different and challenging time for me,” said Smith, who was acclaimed in the previous election. “This was my first election campaign. It was something new and exciting. It stretched me a little bit, and that’s always a good thing.” Challenges included McIntyre’s inaccurate declaration that the school board’s adoption of the staggered-bells busing system was a done deal prior to the consultation process with the public, said Smith. Also, she said the suggestion of year-round schooling didn’t resonate with many voters. Even McIntyre said election night, “I’m a firm believer in year-round schooling (as already seen in parts of Alberta) and teachers aren’t going to vote for that. So that was probably a big voting block there.” Smith says she didn’t know on election night if she had pulled off the win, but says a gathering at her house was a celebration anyway. “If I was going to lose, (Bruce) would have been a good person to lose to,” she said. “He was a tough candidate to beat. I know if he had been elected he would have done a great

EDUCATION SUCCESSFUL FOOD DRIVE Teacher Erin Welch’s Grade 3 students led Our Lady of Fatima Catholic School’s successful drive for the Renfrew and District Food Bank. This was the school’s most successful drive in years, with 614 items collected. “It was a great effort by all staff and students to help fellow community members,” said principal Jeannie Armstrong. The food drive also supports the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board’s mission to advocate for the poor both locally and globally. Photo courtesy of

Let the hunt begin at St. Joseph’s Catholic High School Nov. 1 marks the beginning of the St. Joseph’s Catholic High School annual Jaguar Hunt. In this game, students and staff of opposite grades are paired up against one another in a race to see who can be first to clip a clothespin on the other without their knowledge. This can be interesting because the players may not always know who has their name. The rules to this game include that you cannot pin your opponent if they are in the library, in class or in the office. Also, if the person sees you pinning them, it doesn’t count. The person who successfully pins their opponent first, moves on to the next round of the round-rob-

VICTORIA SLIGHT JAGUAR JOURNAL in until there is a winner. This is an exciting game that helps familiarize students from different grades with one another and generates an air of excitement throughout the school. Let the hunt begin! A reminder: Thursday Nov. 4 we will be holding our annual Fall Coffee House. The evening will include some new material prepared by The SJHS Jazz Band including Freebird and Man in the Mir-

ror. Other acts include the Four Strong Winds and many new and familiar performers. You can have a bottomless cup of coffee while enjoying food made by our foods class and artwork by our art classes. Admission is five dollars, and we hope to see you there. Also be reminded that there will be a PA day Friday, Nov. 5, so students will not be in class. With many Halloween celebrations scheduled for this weekend and trick-or-treaters heading out on Sunday evening, members of the SJHS school community wish everyone a safe weekend and collectively say, Happy Hallowscream!

RCI Raiders make it 15 years county cross-country titles PETER CLARK peter.clark@metroland.com

The temperature hovered around 3 degrees Celsius and a blustery wind made it feel much colder but runners from schools throughout the region were ready to compete at the 2010 Renfrew County cross-country

championship Oct. 22 at Ma-TeWay Park. By the time the last runner crossed the finish line, the Renfrew Collegiate Raiders were well on their way to capturing the school’s unprecedented 15th consecutive county championship with 48 overall points. Petawawa’s General Panet

Panthers were second with 40 points and the Arnprior Redmen third with 38. The RCI coaching staff was obviously happy to see the Raiders fend off the rest of the county to retain position of the championship trophy, but they were equally pleased with the performance of all those who made this county meet possible. “A lot of people put a massive amount of time into this, scorers, timers, the people on the trails, in the cold,” Kathleen Mottershead said. “We thank the Ma-Te-Way staff and the OPP,” Roger Poirier added.

Jaguars score memorable hoops triumph PETER CLARK peter.clark@metroland.com

The St. Joseph’s Jaguars broke open a tight 15-13 game at half time with a huge second half en route to their first Upper Ottawa Valley High School Athletic Association junior girls hoops win at Renfrew Collegiate’s Grant Gymnasium in recent memory. Sonya Bergin had nine points and Kaitlyn Kargus eight to pace the St. Joseph’s attack in their 37-18 Oct. 18 win over the RCI Raiders. “We had a good team defence,” Jaguars coach Mark Valliquette said. “Jessica Vaive and Renee Gauthier owned the paint,” the coach added. “They made their presence felt under the boards.” It was a busy week for the Jaguars in boys volleyball action. Trent Skelhorn’s junior squad pulled out a 3-1 triumph over the Fellowes Falcons, but dropped a pair of decisions, including a five-set cliffhanger to the Madawaska District Valley Wolves in Barry’s Bay Oct. 19. The Opeongo Wildcats

OFSC/MTO driver training courses

clipped the Jaguars 3-1 on St. Joseph’s home court in an Oct. 21 match. The Senior Jaguars enjoyed a good performance with three wins in four starts. St. Joseph’s defeated Madawaska 3-1, and blanked both the General Panet Panthers and Opeongo in straight sets. Fellowes turned the Jaguars away 3-0. The Jaguars had seven cross-country team members compete at the Renfrew County championship last Friday at MaTe-Way Park. Jonathon Carlson and Iain Reid ran the midget boys race with Carlson placing 21st. Rebecca Gooddy hit the finish line 22nd among junior girls. Breigh Whalen also competed. Aidan Solar, 17th, was joined in the junior boys event by Josh Southworth and Joel Beimers. Coach Renee Turcotte said it was a good effort turned in on a cold day by the Jaguar athletes. “They all improved on their best time,” the coach noted. All seven Jaguars will travel to Petawawa this Friday for the Eastern Ontario (EOSSAA) championship.

Taking the OFSC/MTO driver training course is mandatory for snowmobilers over the age of 12 who do not have a valid driver’s licence. The Renfrew County area six-hour course ($40) is available at Snow Country! OFSC District 6 at 40484 Highway 41 Pembroke on Nov. 20, Dec. 4, Dec. 18, Jan. 8 and Jan. 22.

World Series in Texas This year’s World Series reminds me a bit of last spring’s Stanley Cup final in that something has to give. The Texas Rangers have never won a World Series, and the San Francisco Giants haven’t shined up the hardware since heading west from New York in 1958. The Rangers dispatched the New York Yankees in six games while the Giants did likewise in their series with the Philadelphia Philles, thus ending my prediction of another New York - Philadelphia World Series. Despite their payroll of $213 million compared to Texas’s $64 million, the Yankees discovered rather quickly that you can’t win in the end with only one dependable starting pitcher. If you took the eighth inning of game one, and game five away, New York was dominated. The Rangers outscored the Yankees 31-6 in their four wins. Games against San Francisco’s pitching staff should be much closer, but I’ll give the nod to Texas in six games. From my list of wacky predictions: At 2-5-and-1 entering this week’s action, how long will it be before assistant general manager Tim Murray is summoned from upstairs to take over behind the

PETER CLARK PETER’S PUTTERINGS bench of the Ottawa Senators? Sign of the week: When the Vancouver Canucks were in Chicago last Wednesday, someone held up a sign, Hey Daniel, your brother is ugly. $10 million per win: With two wins on the season, the legendary Brett Favre has guided his Minnesota Vikings team to exactly one more than that football power known as the Detroit Lions. * * * The most recent team to win a World Series title in its first appearance is the Anaheim Angels in 2002. The Angels rebounded from a 3-2 games deficit and down 5-0 in Game 6 to defeat the San Francisco Giants. It’s also the last World Series to go seven games. And for this week: Who was the Buffalo Sabres’ last head coach before Lindy Ruff ?

Newest Renfrew program developer excited for the future steve.newman@metroland.com

After teaching a few years, Grant Lavallee returned to his hometown of Renfrew to start a second career with Family and Children Services. Thirty years later, he recently retired from that career and shortly afterwards embarked on what he refers to as his third career. Lavallee, whom many recognize as a coach with the successful Renfrew Amateur Wrestling Club, is the town’s new recreation program developer. He fills the vacancy left by program developer Nadine Partridge, who moved to Kingston last June. The length of that position is only 18 months, but the town expects to determine if the position will continue, as it is now defined, or be modified to better suit the town’s future recreation needs. Whatever happens, Lavallee says he brings exuberance to the job that he started Sept. 27. He provided a brief autobiography and shared his thoughts about the new job when introduced to town council Oct. 12. Lavallee, who grew up in Renfrew, says he had the privilege of being Renfrew Collegiate Institute’s first-ever male athlete of the year (in 1971) with the help of an OFSAA (Ontario high school championship) wrestling gold medal. He then took his physical education and education degrees at Lakehead University and wrestled internationally, including the 1974 Commonwealth Games. He was a potential 1976 Olympian,

Behind the Glass ANDY SKLEPOWICZ Renfrew Curling Rink

Two weeks into the season and I am slowly beating the body back into shape. Since the pain and discomfort are everywhere it is hard to decide which should take precedence. The sore muscles I know will slowly go away but the wonky back is more of a concern. A visit to physio and massage results in the advice “You know at your age, your body needs a day between exercise to let the muscles repair and restore.” Now for the real curling news. The inter club season has started and the Low Cup being hosted by Renfrew Oct. 20. The perennial senior men’s champions, Renfrew, hosted two strong teams from Pembroke, while Deep River met Arnprior on the other two sheets. In morning action Rob Warren’s team of Andy Humphries, Jim Berg and Eric Craig were hard pressed by the Roy Barker

rink and fell 12-2. The team of skip Andy Sklepowicz, Don Lowe, Jarda Papousek and Jim Freemark played well against the Emile Robert team and took a 6-5 lead into the last end but without the hammer. Unfortunately, a final rock draw by the skip to save the end came up short and allowed Robert to take the win. REFUELING All the teams refueled on a wonderful turkey and trimmings lunch followed by cakes to die for; all prepared and served by members of the Day Ladies League. Afternoon action had the teams switch opponents and the Sklepowicz rink looked like it was going to suffer the same fate at Barker’s hands as Pembroke built a 5-2 lead. The Renfrew lads finally woke up from their afternoon nap and evened the score on some great shot making. See MORE, Page 30

A few local and area marathoners made their way to the annual Niagara Falls International Marathon Oct. 24. The only marathon in the world that starts in one country and finishes in another, the event begins in Buffalo and makes its way into Niagara Falls. Colleen Berry of Admaston-Bromley Township was fourth overall among females, and first in the 45-to-49 age group. She earned silver in the masters (40-plus) in three hours, six minutes, 16 seconds. Renfrew brothers Stewart and Brian Campbell competed in the 10-kilometre event. Stewart Campbell, a resident of Pembroke, finished 10th overall and first in the 50-54 category in 43:06. Brian Campbell was 23rd and ran to the best time of 45:49 to finish first in the 45-49 group. Alison Seely of Beachburg was 12th among females in the marathon, and third in her 45-49 group with a time of 3:33.49. “It would have been nice to knock another six minutes off my time, but I’m headed in the right direction,” Berry

Masters silver-medal winner Colleen Berry, centre, flanked by Natalie Guyea of St. Bruno, Que. (gold) and Elizabeth Maguire of Ottawa (bronze). Photo courtesy of Keith Berry said of her run. “Niagara Falls was a good warm up for Stewart. He’ll be competing in New York on Nov. 7,” she added. Berry is looking ahead to the Ottawa Race Weekend on the final weekend of May 2011. “Boston was filled up in a matter of hours,” Berry said. “I enjoy going to Ottawa. It’s local and a prestigious event.” In all, 1,051 competitors finished Niagara Falls. There were 453 women entered.

Girls hoops this weekend The Renfrew Collegiate Raiders and Arnprior Redmen are combining forces to host their Playoff Primer senior girls basketball tournament this Friday and Saturday. Twelve teams will be competing in the senior division and eight teams in junior with games played at RCI, ADHS and St. Joseph’s Catholic High School. Games run at all three gymnasium sites from 1 p.m. Friday with the final tip-off at 8:30 p.m. Saturday features playoff action starting at 9 a.m. All championship games are at 6:30 p.m. RCI will host the senior title game while the senior B final will be played at St. Joseph’s. The junior final game will be played at the Arnprior gym. It was a battle of the undefeated in Upper Ottawa Valley senior girls basketball action. The Senior Raiders prevailed 53-24 over the St. Joseph’s Jaguars on the Grant Gymnasium court Oct. 18. Hillary MacMillan drained eight of her 12 points to jump-start the Raiders in the first quarter. Dougherty sisters Caitlin and Sarah combined for 22 points while Mae Donohue added a dozen. The Senior Raiders also bounced the Opeongo Wildcats the following afternoon 58-23. The Doughertys added 29 more points, including a trio of shots from three-point land for Caitlin. Megan Blimkie added nine points and Meghan Forgie eight for RCI.

On Monday, the Raiders suffered their first loss of 2010 as the Arnprior Redmen scored a 31-23 triumph at the Grant Gym. Donohue had 10 points for RCI. The Junior Raiders dropped a 33-29 decision to Opeongo. Coach Jason Wilson said the Raiders showed improved play. They battled back from nine points down to make a game of it, trailing by as little as two points in the second half, Wilson added. On Monday, unbeaten Arnprior ambushed the Raiders 42-7. PLAYOFF HOPES REMAIN ALIVE In Lanark-Renfrew High School Football League action, both RCI teams kept playoff hopes alive with wins last Friday. The Senior Raiders (4-2-and-1) got a touchdown from Matt Sharpe in the last couple of minutes to nip the Mackenzie Mustangs 8-7 in Deep River. Jason Fleury and Cameron Shields also had big games for the offence directed by quarterback Cooper Brown. The Junior Raiders (2-and-4) answered a 26-12 setback to the St. Johns Spartans three days before with a convincing 25-6 triumph over the Carleton Place Golden Bears Friday afternoon. Rudy Kadlec, Matt Murdock, Jake Cartman and Logan Goulette played prominent roles in the RCI victory. The Junior Raiders host the Smiths Falls Redhawks at 1 p.m. Friday while their senior counterparts travel to Pembroke to take on the Fellowes Falcons Thursday.

PETER CLARK peter.clark@metroland.com

For the Renfrew Timberwolves to earn a playoff spot in the Valley Division of the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League, they have to beat the teams around them in the standings – notably the Stittsville Royals, Almonte Thunder and Pontiac Juniors – more often than not. The Wolves did just that at the Ma-TeWay Activity Centre Sunday night, topping the visiting Stittsville Royals 4-2. At 5-6-and-2, the Wolves have climbed into third place ahead of the aforementioned three Valley Division rivals. Dylan Zavitske snapped a rebounded into the open side of a yawning cage with 5:38 remaining to snap a 2-2 deadlock and propel the Wolves to the victory. The goal came just 34 seconds after Stittsville’s Matt Kadolph had tied the game at two. Tyler Charbonneau in the opening stanza, and Nick Van Esson in the middle session, netted earlier Renfrew markers before Mitchell Parker iced the verdict with a powerplay open-net tally at 19:55 of the third period. Patrice Wren fed the puck to Parker. Wren was rewarded with the Renfrew Pizzeria Wolves player-of-the-game for his efforts over the night. Brock Beehler had a shorthanded breakaway tally for Stittsville 1:27 into the second period. It was an interesting encounter, and the score could have been much higher if not for the work of the two goaltenders.

A SOUND DECISIONTM

OTTAWA’S FACTORY AUTHORIZED

HARDWOOD We Got Wood!

Timberwolves earn crucial win The Wolves’ Mike Rosebrook and Stittsville’s Josh Cooper faced a number of breakaways throughout the contest dominated by powerplay opportunities but highlighted by the play of both teams’ penalty killers. The Wolves weathered a four-minute Royals powerplay, including two minutes two-men short in the middle period. The Royals were assessed 68 minutes in penalties and the Wolves 58. Kurtis Leclaire in the first period, and Jordan Welk in the third, received game banishments for fighting, alongside Stittsville’s Mitch Kerwin and Anthony Kell. Three second-period goals were the difference as the Perth Blue Wings doubled a short-staffed Timberwolves team 4-2 in the Lanark County town Friday night. Brady Clouthier supplied the Wolves with a 1-0 lead just past the four-minute mark of the opening period, and defenceman Erik Mask connected midway through the final stanza. Blue Wing shooters kept Rosebrook busy with 40 shots. The Wolves tested Perth goalkeeper Troy Anderson 23 times. The Wolves were missing a few key components as five players were absent from their line-up. The Renfrew club travels to the Barbara Ann Scott Arena to take on the Ottawa West Golden Knights tonight at 7:20 p.m. They are in Clarence Creek Sunday at 2:15. The next home game is Friday, Nov. 5 when Ottawa West pays a return visit to the Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre at 8 p.m.

Suspect sought by Renfrew OPP Man at large after grabbing and threatening woman

The Renfrew detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police is looking for a male suspect after a Wednesday, Oct. 20, attack on a local woman. About 11 oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock that night, a lone adult female parted company from a friend on Renfrew Street, to walk home near the railway tracks and Jennett Street. During her walk, an unknown male approached before grabbing and threatening the woman.

Fatality in one-car crash STEVE NEWMAN steve.newman@metroland.com

A black Camaro went terribly out of control and flipped several times before landing upside down about 3:25 a.m. Saturday. Two of the four occupants were transported to hospital, one by air ambulance in serious condition, following the crash on the outskirts of the village of Douglas. Sunday afternoon, the driver, Russell Stuart Raglin, 20, of McNab-Braeside Township succumbed to his injuries at the Civic campus of the Ottawa Hospital. One of the occupants, A 19year-old female from Renfrew, sustained a broken arm. Police say the other two occupants, a male youth from the Arnprior area and a female youth from Renfrew, sustained minor injuries. All four were wearing their seatbelts, says investigating officer Const. John Windle of the Renfrew OPP detachment.

Tire marks appeared on the right shoulder of a mild turn, before the car crossed the road and ran along the shoulder, then the ditch, for another 150 metres. The car flipped several times before ending up on the other side of wired fence. Speed is believed to be a factor in the crash that brought OPP technical traffic collision officers to the scene by about 6 a.m. Members of the Douglas and Renfrew fire department also appeared on the scene. Traffic was diverted for several hours from the accident scene, at the intersection of Highway 60 and Rice Line. Visitation for Raglin was held Tuesday at the Boyce Funeral Home Chapel in Arnprior. A private family service was scheduled at the chapel for Wednesday morning. In-memoriams to the Kidney Foundation or the Childrens Hospital of Eastern Ontario will be appreciated. Condolences or donations can be sent to www. boycefuneralhome.ca.

escaped, ran to a safe location and called police. In asking for assistance on the case, the OPP has described the suspect as a black male, and 5-foot7 or 5-foot-8. He was wearing a grey hoodie, sunglasses, baggy blue jeans, black shoes and a red bandana. Anyone with information about this assault is asked to call the Renfrew OPP at 613-432-3211 or the Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

NATURE

When feeding territories overlap, aggressive species take control Ron Huntley had severalrobins feeding on his lawn and within a few days all had disappeared, and northern flickers moved in. This past week the flickers left and the robins returned. Each species has definite feeding preferences and can be found in that locality every day. When there is a clash between two species with the same feeding preferences the more aggressive species gains control of the feeding area. In this case the flickers and robins are both ground feeders who search in the grass for worms and insects. Because the flickers are more aggressive they took over the feeding territory and the robins left. With the flickers gone the robins returned. AN UNUSUAL ROBIN Corrine Sauve writes: I have pictures on my computer of an unusual robin. It came last year and I couldn’t get pictures of it. It is back again this year. It is a beautiful bird. The back is mottled with black and white patches and the tail feathers are one black, one white, one black, etc. Its head and neck are white with a dark patch on its neck. The chest is the colour of a female, with white dots on it. I have never seen anything like it. Thank you. Corinne Sauve Corinne: The bird is a partial albino. To display total albinism the skin and irises must be pink and the plumage white. The DNA may be permanent for this bird

Also this week, Cathy Campbell saw a flock of about 50 sand hill cranes circling overhead much like hawks. This behavior demonstrates the restlessness birds have just before they start their long flight to the southern United States. Migration for cranes is a dangerous trip. Power lines, storms (snow squalls in particular) and airplane traffic injures or kills many of the birds. Watch for them this coming week. They are an impressive sight to see.

If a bird has not sustained any serious injury, placing it in a tree out of harm’s way (neighbourhood cats) is the best way to treat it. Thank you Sister Joan. FIRST CARDINAL Clarence Bos had a cardinal come to his feeders for the first time this week. Clarence says it is the sunflower seed that attracts them. This is a good time to get your feeders out. The birds will come to know where food is available

The young hawks are almost as large as the adults. The best field marks for this hawk are the white rump patch, white feathers on the underside of the wings and black wrists. Enjoy your birding.

TOWNSHIP OF McNAB/BRAESIDE

The enchanted summer We have had an incredible summer. The first frost around here often came the week of the Renfrew Fair, but in recent years it has been coming later – the second or third week of September. Can anyone remember the first frost coming as late as Oct. 2? That’s the morning our roof was white with frost. I heard Environment Canada’s David Phillips say 2010 is the warmest year of the 63 years of record keeping. Phillips’s predicted recordbreaking temperatures to continue into the early fall. It’s been hard to pick anything negative about growing season. The growing season was good all over the province. The last three days of September my wife and I were in St. Jacobs (Mennonite Country). The area has lots of corn. There was no green corn anywhere. It was all dry looking like you would see in the late fall. The corn matured early and dried down quickly from the extended warm spell. It was a month earlier than usual. Let’s look at our rainfall compared to last summer. According to my rain gauge, from May through to the end of September I recorded 399.5 mm of rain. The spring was dry. April brought 40 mm (not included in the total). May 36 mm. June 101 mm. July 54 mm. August 88 mm and September 120.5 mm. Last summer I recorded 349 mm in the same time period.

AGRICULTURE

Proposed Comprehensive Zoning By-Law

MAYNARD VAN DER GALIEN RURAL ROUTES July was the wet month with 142 mm making haymaking almost impossible. August was decent with 66 mm. The other months were on the dry side. What has made this summer so extra ordinary is the warm weather right through September. It will be interesting to see how much higher the heat units will be. I’m sure we’ll get a week of Indian summer yet. Climatologists and weathermen refer to Indian summer as any period in the fall of five straight days with temperatures above 15C and at least five hours of bright sunshine. A true Indian summer can not occur until there has been a killing frost. Indian summer is usually accompanied by dry and hazy conditions ushered in on a south or southwesterly breeze. I checked my daybook to see when we had Indian summer last year. There was heavy frost on November 9 and 10. Indian summer started on Remembrance Day and continued that week. The daybook says I baled the last of my second cut hay on November 14. That good hay came in handy because too much poor hay was made during the summer. One thing about Indian summer, no one complains about it. We love it!

troleum Corporation have had, since last Council meeting, no further communication with the Town of Renfrew except to enquire, through a solicitor, whether there are any taxes unpaid, which that corporation proposes to erect a garage and service station. The tax situation is alright because the lot at the corner of Raglan and Patrick streets, owned by a church, had no taxes to pay. LOCALS: Mrs. W.G. Wilkinson and Mrs. C. Lamb left Wednesday morning for their home in Saskatchewan after a months visit with their mother, Mrs. Gillespie of Glasgow Station and other friends in the East. – Mr. Sydney Pottinger of Renfrew now has captains rank in the Canadian Militia. He was promoted from a Lieutenant after writing up on the necessary examination. – Mr. Harry Kennelly of Mt. St. Patrick has returned home from Renfrew where he has spent the last two weeks suffering from blood poisoning. All were very glad to see him back and hope he continues to improve.

ACCEPTS POSITION IN REGINA: Provincial superintendent for the Continental Life Assurance Co. in Saskatchewan – this position, carrying with it an alluring salary, was a few days ago offered to Mr Robert G. Wilson of Renfrew, who has announced his acceptance of it. This means that Mr. Wilson is to leave Renfrew to reside in Regina, a circumstance which will cause regret among his wide circle of friends here and hereabouts, although it will be pleased to learn of his rapid promotion in the service of the company. In a week or two Mr. Wilson will entrain for the West, going out in a section of Canada with which he is already fairly well acquainted. APPOINTMENT OF MR LEACH: Mr. W.J. Gillan, proprieter of Dominion Springs, Pakenham, was in Renfrew on Wednesday and while here appointed Mr. A.E. Leach as local agent for the water from the springs. The curative qualities of that water are well known to many people in Renfrew and vicinity, as every season patients go from this vicinity to the sanatorium seeking relief from different maladies and nearly always with gratifying results. There has all along been coming a good deal of the water to town, but that the service might be regular and uninterrupted Mr. Gillan deemed it well to appoint a Renfrew agent.

You loved us, you live in our hearts You taught us, you live in our minds We miss you and cherish your memory Keep smiling on us from Heaven mom I know that’s right where you want to be with dad. I’m not crying because I feel so sorry for you, I’m just crying for us today.

Gone are the days we used to share, But in our hearts you are always there, The gates of memory will never close, We miss you more than anyone knows, With tender love and deep regret, We who love you will never forget.

My Old Friend Today I said goodbye to my old friend I pray some day we get to meet again Under one more clear, blue sky Up there where the eagles ﬂy And we’ll go walking in the sunshine With a big smile on our face, Race the river to the ocean, Go splashing in the waves, And I’ll wrap my arms around you, We’ll be together once again. And I’ll tell you how much I’ve missed you My old friend.

Love Always, Rose Mike, Laurie & Kayla David Karen, Glenn, Jenna & Ryan Cheryl, Shawn, Lexi & Carson Laurie, Calvin Madison & Dawson

I know you’re up there looking down On that rainbow bridge we talked about, There’s a place for me and you Somewhere up there behind the moon. (Song & lyrics Johnny Reid)
