HAIR RAISING EXPERIENCE

COMMUNITY

News - The Relay for Life event, held in Smiths Falls on Friday, June 13, was highlighted by the hair cutting of Rylin Taylor, 12. His mother, Jackie Tay watches as stylist John Ovens does the honours. Rylin raised $700 after growing his hair for wigs for children who have lost their own hair to cancer. He has been growing his hair for two years. The Relay event raised more than $50,000 this year. See pages 55 to 58 for a special pull-out section.

News - The Province of Ontario may have a majority Liberal government but local ridings remained staunchly Conservative following last Thursday’s election. To the surprise of few, Randy Hillier was the runaway winner in Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox & Addington. The PC candidate won his third mandate, receiving 21,966 votes or 43.6 per cent. Bill MacDonald of the Liberals was a distant second with 14,957 votes. New Democrat Dave Parkhill received 20.3 per cent of the vote (10,207) while Green candidate Cam Mather received 6.5 per cent. See pages 4 and 5 for full details. It was a similar story in Leeds-Grenville where the margin of victory was even wider. Progressive Conservative Steve Clark received a solid 23,201 votes or a whopping 56 per cent of the total ballots cast. Liberal Christine Milks, running for provincial office for the first time, came second with just 8,500 votes (20.5 per cent) and David Lundy was third with 7,219 votes (17.4 per cent).

CDSBEO receives two national awards for mental health initiatives, leadership cant steps forward the CDSBEO has taken in raising awareness of the importance of recognizing that mental health issues happen as a part of life, that mental illness must be viewed no differently than physical illnesses, and that acceptance and reaching out for early intervention is key to recovery and maintaining wellness through prevention, supports and treatments.” “We are so honoured to be recognized in this way by the Mood Disorders Society of Canada,” noted Gartland. “This is truly an important initiative for the board, and the support we’ve received from MDSC has been paramount in our success. It is truly a collaborative effort, and we know these initiatives have begun to instill a new culture of awareness for our students and staff.” Board chair Brent Laton remarked, “We are certainly honoured to receive this award in recognition of the efforts of our board in the area of mental health. We are very proud to have partnered with this leading national organization as we work towards raising awareness and reducing the stigma surrounding mental illness.” After the presentation of the Jordan James Pickell Award, Starzynski made a surprise presentation of the second award to Gartland. “Bill has changed the face of mental health for this board. He isn’t afraid to talk of his

own family experiences, and this takes away the stigma and the mystique. The Mood Disorders Society of Canada is very proud to be associated with the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario. We have had the privilege of working with Bill and the team he leads. They have been trailblazers in recognizing the need for mental health education,” he said. Clearly unprepared for the honour, Gartland accepted the award. “This is a complete surprise!” he remarked. “I accept this award gratefully, but I accept it on behalf of all of our staff and board members who have helped support and implement these initiatives. ” Laton commented, “I would like to congratulate Bill on behalf of the members of the board; we truly appreciate him bringing these mental health initiatives to our students and staff.” The CDSBEO has implemented many initiatives as part of an ongoing board-wide mental health program, including the Elephant in the Room Anti-Stigma Campaign for awareness about mental illness in the workplace and in the classroom, WITS/ LEAD programs in response to bullying, proactive circles and restorative practices for conflict resolution, and a and a new student bully reporting app, called EMPOWER, which encourages student voice, promotes positive mental health and helps stop student victimization.

Hillier back in the saddle as Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington Across the street at the Best Western Plus Parkside Inn and Spa, the only cheers to be had amongst Liberals gathered for Bill MacDonald, was when campaign manager Roger Martin announced Hudakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resignation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a bittersweet thing,â&#x20AC;? said MacDonald, with his party having regained the majority it lost in 2011, but with him again failing to unseat Hillier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a tough riding to paint red.â&#x20AC;? He said that the Liberals regained full power at Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park because â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe people were listening to a more positive message,â&#x20AC;? than that being put forward by the PCs. He also pointed to the 100,000 jobs cut pledge as being a major issue in the campaign locally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a lot of fear in this riding, about their plans,â&#x20AC;? he said. Now that Wynne is premier in her own right, he said he felt that she and the Liberals would benefit from a clean slate of

(But) the people are always right in a democracy.â&#x20AC;? Raising his glass of beer, he added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We toast to democracy tonight.â&#x20AC;? Afterwards, Hillier blamed outgoing party leader Tim Hudakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 100,000 job cuts pledge for giving him an â&#x20AC;&#x153;uphill battle,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;causing reluctance,â&#x20AC;? for some of his previous voters to back him again. He admitted that his majority in the riding was â&#x20AC;&#x153;not as large a majority as last time.â&#x20AC;? He said that the policy had not been â&#x20AC;&#x153;communicated effectivelyâ&#x20AC;Ś (and) it hit close to home.â&#x20AC;? Speaking just before Hudak announced his resignation, Hillier, who ran against Hudak for the Progressive Conservative leadership in 2009, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I only talk about one election per day,â&#x20AC;? but added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see any leadership runs on the horizon.â&#x20AC;? Premier Kathleen Wynne was elected as the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leader in her own right with a small majority government, bucking the predicted result of a minority government, with

sorts with this renewed mandate. Back in January of 2013, when she was elected party leader, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel very strongly that Kathleen Wynne has been weighted down by a stone,â&#x20AC;? of Liberal scandals like the gas plant cancellations in Oakville and Mississauga. With these election results, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel she can move forward with her progressive agenda.â&#x20AC;? After his second run at Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park, MacDonald announced that he was done with provincial politics â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as a candidate, anyway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will not let my name stand again in a provincial election,â&#x20AC;? he said. When asked who he thought would run for the PC leadership, he added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really care who leads them.â&#x20AC;?

We’re moving forward to the next campaign and we’ll bring it up even more.” He wasn’t surprised at the outcome as the riding is a “conservative riding.” “…Bill (MacDonald) ran a great campaign and I think so did I.

What did surprise Parkhill, however, was the Liberal majority government, which he said didn’t reflect “what I was hearing at the door.” “What I was expecting was, Liberal minority with the NDP and PCs very close. Of course, that’s not what we’ve seen,” he noted, adding that he believes people voted “out of fear.” “…I think they were afraid of a Hudak majority and I think provincewide that’s what happened. And, locally, I think people voted for the comfort that they have in Randy,” Parkhill continued. With the riding so large, getting from one end to another is a challenge, but Parkhill is satisfied with the cam-

Lanark County Interval House: 35 years of striking back at violence against women By ASHLEY KULP akulp@perfprint.ca

R0012762317_0619

News – As Lanark County Interval House (LCIH) honours 35 years serving our communities this year, they’ve continued to evolve to meet the needs of women and children facing violent situations. The organization has a deep history, which dates back to May 1979 when LCIH officially opened, though its shelter was already occupied in April by women needing emergency services. “When you think about 35 years, we’ve done some great things and we’ve served women well, but the issues are the same. Women still need a safe place to go and children still need a safe place to go,” said LCIH executive director Erin Lee. “...We will continue to push the envelope, talk about (violence) out loud and take risks. People see us (LCIH) as the rebels, that we’re radical man haters and we’re not. We’re women trying to move forward the agenda of women; that they deserve access to quality of life, education and to feel safe in their homes without feeling a threat.” In establishing the organization, The Hub in Almonte was a big support, along with founding LCIH member Fern Martin. “When Lanark County Interval House was started, it was shortsighted in thinking that violence would end, but 35 years later, it hasn’t ended,” Lee stated. “... The roots of the agency are solid, from our founding mothers to now. We’re not shaking, we’re not compromising on those roots and that’s important.” At the heart of LCIH is its 24-hour

emergency shelter in Carleton Place, which gives women and children a safe place to reside if their safety is threatened. A big expansion for the organization came in 2002 when they opened their first outreach office in Carleton Place to offer services to women who weren’t residing at the shelter, but needed support.

Town and Country Chrysler of Smiths Falls’ Hugh Colton will serve as emcee for the festival, set to run from 2 to 8 p.m. at the park (gates open at 1 p.m.). Admission is just $10 and children 12 and under get in for free. Tempt your tastebuds with a barbecue and fresh lemonade, operated by LCIH on site, as well as catering provided by Dennis Burn of Leatherworks Catering.

Tickets are still available for Hoot in the Holler and can be purchased at: Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre (613-284-4124 ext. 6103); Pakenham General Store (613-6245280); Clayton General Store (613256-1947); Beckwith Township office (613-257-1539); Carleton Place & District Chamber of Commerce Visitor Centre (613-257-1976); Shadowfax in Perth (613-267-6817); Doree’s Habit in Almonte (613-256-8837) and Merrickville (613-269-9322; or call the LCIH administration line at 613-2573469 ext. 27.

At that time, two new programs began to be offered: transition support for women re-establishing themselves in the community through finding them safe housing, employment and education; and the child and youth program. Today, LCIH runs two children’s programs, one at the shelter and one at their outreach offices. “These programs work directly with

for multiple families. It helps to give the message to the women and children who come to stay at the shelter that they are valued and cared for at a time of great upheaval in their lives.” Over the years, LCIH has had a strong focus on youth as well and two Status of Women Canada grants between 2009 and 2012 allowed them to create the Where is the Love? project to reach teens in high schools and the online Truth for Rural Youth project gave youth a chance to interact and talk about relationships. Funding has ended for these projects, but LCIH still operates the Truth for Rural Youth website ( HYPERLINK “http://trylanarkcounty.com” http://trylanarkcounty.com) and with the help of generous partners, continue to offer a Could This be Love? conference in Perth, attended by high school students across the county. “We wouldn’t have any youth conferences if it weren’t for hospitals and service clubs. We get a little bit (of funding) from everywhere to do the best kind of conferences we can to give the youth a voice,” Lee noted, stating that youth have had a “pivotal influence” on the types of services offered by LCIH. In 2013, LCIH also had the opportunity to enhance their services even more by establishing a court support program for the county. For 8.5 hours a week, the court support worker helps women dealing with the family court system. Most recently, Lee said she is proud of the strong partnerships and relationships LCIH has formed with local agencies, including the Ontario Provincial See LCIH page 9

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR

Impact of proposed bill could see small farms disappear, says reader DEAR EDITOR: I have recently become aware of the dire implications for our Canadian food supply buried in Bill C-18, which is about to receive second reading in Canada’s parliament. Contained in the bill are alterations to regulations governing how seed can be cleaned and stored. This affects how farmers have saved seed for thousands of years from one years’ crop to plant the following year. This is referred to as Farmer’s Privilege. Without being necessary to conform to international standards, as we already meet them, the government of Stephen Harper is making changes that invite multinational seed corporations (Monsanto is one of them) to sell ‘approved’ seed to farmers who, also due to these changes, will find it difficult to save their seed legally. Because the seed the corporations are purveying are IP (Intellectual Property) and protected by legal means, the seed company can potentially charge not only for the seed, which is normal practice, but also impose fees for the season’s processes, such as fertilizing, harvesting, and selling crops. In addition, any neighbouring farm that receives pollen blown over from an IP protected plant becomes subject to the same fees. The likely environmental damages from these seed include: increased monoculture and subsequent loss of plant diversity; the IP plants require

more fertilizers, which have a greater impact on our ground water; IP seed is genetically modified (GMO), which runs counter to the growing movement amongst Canadians for healthy, locally grown food. The impact of this bill will see our small farms disappear because of a far greater debt-load from increased costs, fees and fertilization There is a wealth of information available on the National Farmer’s Union site (nfu.ca). Look for Stop Bill C-18. Because this bill will receive second reading soon, it’s important that our government MPs and the Minister of Agriculture receive messages from us that this attack on our food supply will not be tolerated by Canadians. This requires action. Call your MP’s office; download a petition from nfu.ca and gather a minimum of 25 signatures to be presented to parliament; tell your friends. This is an issue for all of us who live in Canada, and wish to protect our and future generations right to eat wholesome food. We need to retain our autonomy to grow the foods that are good for us, not feed corporations that are willing to sacrifice our farmland ecology and diverse food supply. Kate Kechnie Carleton Place

COMMENTARY

Keep on fighting Editorial – The fight against cancer is as strong as ever if Relay for Life events in Mississippi Mills, Smiths Falls and Brockville are any indication. The Leeds, Grenville and Lanark branch of the Canadian Cancer Society wrapped up its Relay for Life activities for another year after the Mississippi Mills event June 6 at Gemmill Park in Almonte and the Brockville (Row’s Corner Fairground) and Smiths Falls (Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute) fundraisers June 13. Targets fell short, but the Mississippi Mills event raised more than $101,000 (with a goal of $135,000). Brockville brought in just over $102,000 (organizers hoped for $155,000), and Smiths Falls, with a goal of $95,000, raised $55,020. So goals weren’t met, but that doesn’t mean there should be a damper on these events. People still came together and raised funds for cancer research. And had fun doing it. That counts for something. In Smiths Falls, the Cancer Kicking Cousins team raised $8,427 on their own and Mississippi Mills teams PAR-TEE GIRLS and For the Love of Dido brought in $14,442 and $11,027, respectively. These are success stories that should be shared. The all-night walk in the fight to end cancer is something every person should experience in their lifetime. The sheer support as team members band together to walk a track into the wee hours of the morning, paired with the emotion of the survivor’s lap and luminary ceremony, are something to behold. Walking past those luminaries that line the track, each with a name of a loved one battling the vicious disease emblazoned on its side, is quite a sight to behold. It puts into perspective why people choose to Relay: it’s for their family members, mailman, teacher, neighbour or friend. It’s so that someday future generations won’t have to hear the words “you’ve got cancer.” We have to keep fighting.

Uncle Lou’s extravagant gift brings tears of joy Lifestyle – We could hear the horn long before we could see the car. It was a horn like no other heard in all of Renfrew County. We knew it was Uncle Lou! He usually let Mother know when he was coming. But sometimes, he just arrived, like it was an everyday occurrence to drive all the way from New York City just to visit us out on the farm. By the time his big black Buick pulled into the yard, driving down our long lane off the Northcote Side Road, Everett had run to open the gate wide, Audrey had replaced the Eaton’s catalogue for the orange wrapping papers in the outhouse, Mother had changed her apron to one spanking clean, and the rest of us circled the yard jumping up and down like jackrabbits. Even Father had stopped whatever he was doing in the barns, and joined us, ready to greet Uncle Lou and his black Buick with the big shiny brass American Eagle on the rad of the car.

Mother, as usual, whenever her brother came from New York, was crying. It took me a long time to learn the difference between crying because you were sad or crying because you were overcome with joy. Mother was overcome with joy! Uncle Lou pulled the car up close to the back door of the house, and when he got out, he swung Mother around like she was a toy doll, and then he pumped Father’s hand, and then grabbed each of us into a bear hug, one that took my breath away. Uncle Lou never came empty handed. And I tried not to make it look too obvious, but I couldn’t help looking into the back of the car, and there were boxes upon boxes, and in the front seat were brown paper bags. And I knew without a doubt, he had stopped in Renfrew and bought bags of oranges, bananas, grapes, and a bag of lemons for Mother...all Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@metroland.com 613-283-3182, ext. 104

things we would never dream of adding to our Saturday morning shopping list. It was like Christmas...right in the middle of summer! I couldn’t take my eyes off the back of the car. But Uncle Lou didn’t seem to be in any great hurry to unload his luggage or the boxes. He did reach in and take out the bags of fruit though, which caused Mother to shed another great pile of tears!

was made of gold. In fact, we all thought the big eagle on the rad was pure gold, until Uncle Lou corrected us and said it was brass. Emerson was rubbing his hand over it and making clucking sounds of approval. “Sure like that bird,” he kept saying. With his arm tight around Mother’s waist, Uncle Lou headed into the house, and ordered the boys to unload the car. First to come out were the many boxes, some with Macy’s department store printed on them, others just plain boxes tied with ribbons and string. Then came Uncle Lou’s luggage. Just looking at his suitcases, all made of smooth tan cowhide, confirmed in my young mind once again, that Uncle Lou had to be the richest man in all of New York City. Uncle Lou also had a good memory. Without even opening the boxes, he knew exactly which one was to go to each of us.

were yards of beautiful silk material, and a purse made of genuine leather in bright red! I couldn’t imagine such luxury! My box held a beautiful pair of white ankle stockings, with real lace around the tops, just like bad Marguirite wore to the Northcote School, and books...how I loved owning my very own books. Then, all that was left was a box which Uncle Lou kept apart from all the rest. He held it under his arm, and I wondered if he had brought something by mistake, because he didn’t look like he was in any hurry to hand it to someone. When we were finished with opening all the wonderful gifts, Uncle Lou finally handed Mother the box from under his arm. “It’s for the whole family,” he said, but Mother was to open it. Mother sat down on a kitchen chair with the box in her lap.

circled around her, and I could feel excitement right down to my toes. She seemed to take forever to untie the strings, and then she peered in the box, and was into the tears again. What she took out of the box almost caused the rest of us to cry along with her. There nestled in mounds of white tissue paper was a brass American eagle exactly like the one on Uncle Lou’s big black Buick! Only this one was on a pedestal. Emerson, of course, wanted to hold it. But Mother had a death grasp on it, and she kept rubbing it with the tail of her white apron. Where to put it was the next question. Emerson, never short on ideas thought it could be attached to the hood of the old Model T. The old Model T, missing a door, painted two different colours, and with a rad that had to be opened every few miles to pour in more water! And so it was decided. It would sit on top of the ice box. The new ice box that grandfather had bought from Barnett’s in Renfrew and now sat kitty-cornered

in the kitchen. Audrey was told to take off the geranium plant, give the top a good wipe with a clean dishcloth, and when all that was done, Mother got up and as if she was laying a cornerstone at an historic building, she put the American brass eagle in the very centre of the ice box. Not a word was spoken as we stood there like mutes, admiring this new and wonderful addition to our old log house. There was some discussion about its being put on the twig table in the parlour with the bible, but Audrey pointed out that the parlour was seldom used, and no visitor would ever see it. And so it was decided. The American Eagle, identical to the one on Uncle Lou’s Buick, would have its home on our oak ice box, where it would be the first thing anyone would notice, coming in the kitchen.

Initiatives such as the annual Take Back the Night Walk in Carleton Place in September, and November’s Violet Femmes fundraiser, have been successful for LCIH, as well as the establishment of the As Good As New Store in Carleton Place, a thrift outlet that raises funds for the organization. “We try to keep our hands in as many pies,” said Lee. Heather Whiting, LCIH’s volunteer and fundraising co-ordinator said she’s proud of what the organization has accomplished, but there’s still much to be done. She admitted that public awareness and

spreading their message, is key. “Women have come a long way, but there’s still a ways to go,” she said. “Without public awareness, we’ll never break the stigma of women feeling ashamed for being in a situation that is entirely not their fault.” According to Lee, legislators need to be pushed into doing more. “There needs to be a national action plan, to deal with national violence and Aboriginal violence,” she stated. “No one is actively doing anything about it...and it has to be a priority.” Over the years, Lee admitted that sometimes LCIH’s activities can be sensationalized or misrepresented, but she wants people to know one thing: “We’re still here, we’re still trying to honour women and children and trying to prevent more violence.”

Perth resident takes to the water again in annual Kayaking to Beat Cancer fundraiser By ASHLEY KULP

Bruce Raby with his Community Partnership Award from the Canadian Cancer Society.

akulp@perfprint.ca

Route change The recreational kayaker, who started kayaking in 2005, is changing things up a bit this year and making the route a bit more challenging. Instead of his traditional 110kilometre voyage from Perth to Ottawa, Raby will instead be leaving from Westport, kayaking to Ottawa, increasing the route to 135 kilometres. “It’s a bit different and makes it a little bit tougher for me because I have to paddle the Big Rideau (system),” he said. “…Westport seems like a nice place to start.” He likes to change the route to keep it fresh. Previously, he’s done four paddles from Kingston to Ottawa and two from Perth to Ottawa. “I make it longer and tougher as

I get older,” Raby joked. He’ll also have more company along the waves. Son Nicholas, who usually joins him for a portion of the trip each year, will be on hand again and so will Susan Johnston. She will be raising funds for the Heart & Stroke Foundation. She heard about Raby’s fundraiser as they are both members of the Lanark County Camera Club and asked if she could join in. “She’s a pretty avid paddler and is passionate about kayaking and photography and wanted to raise money for the Heart & Stroke Foundation,” Raby explained. “I figured we could support each other on the water. I’m looking forward to it.” “It’s nice to have someone paddle with you that’s passionate about the same types of things as you,” he added. He’s hoping to complete it within four days, beginning on Aug. 9, but has given himself until Aug. 14, if needed. “It all depends on the weather and how I feel, and more importantly, if there are good places to stop and have a shower,” he said. Raby plans to stop in Rideau Ferry, Merrickville and possibly Kars and Manotick. While he’s out on the water, he paddles up to the water’s edge to collect donations. Those experiences are ones he treasures the most. “Two or three years ago now, I paddled up and somebody near Kars reached in his pocket and pulled out a $100 bill. I offered him change, but he said ‘I’m pretty flush today, so here,’” Raby remembers. “It totally blew my mind. I can’t possibly forget that sort of thing.” “Then last year, I was paddling near Manotick and a woman was sitting by the bank at her property and I thought I’d stopped there before. I went up and didn’t have to say anything. She said she knew I would stop

again and handed me $20,” he continued. “Things like that always make me feel really good.” As for why he keeps doing it, his answer is simple. “There’s just something inside me that keeps driving me to do this,” he said. “This is just my way of trying to contribute something and say to other folks that I care.” Donations can also be made to Kayaking for Cancer online at http://convio. cancer.ca/goto/kayakingtobeatcancer.

Community – Each August, it’s become a tradition to see Bruce Raby kayaking along the Rideau Canal to raise funds for the Canadian Cancer Society and this summer will be no different. The Perth resident will embark on the voyage Aug. 9, which has raised close to $30,000 for the cancer society since he began. As with last year, he’s asking for 100 per cent of the proceeds to go directly to the Lanark, Leeds and Grenville unit of the society. “I’d like the donations to be used in our community to help individuals living with cancer right now,” Raby said. “It (funds raised) won’t help find a cure, but it goes a long way to help people dealing with cancer now. If I raise $4,000 to $5,000, then I’m happy to see it help people.” Raby is getting a head start on fundraising beginning Saturday, June 28 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Carleton Place Walmart, which will match all cash donations made instore on that day. “It’s great because they match dollar for dollar and last year, contributed around $600,” he stated. Next up will be Steve’s Independent Grocer in Carleton Place on July 5, and then for two days, July 12 and Aug. 3, Raby will be at Barnabe’s Independent Grocer in Perth. He is planning to be at all locations from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. “With four days of fundraising in stores, I’d like to raise $500 each day and I’m getting good at that,” he said. Those interested can also make a donation to Kayaking to Beat Cancer at the LCBO locations in Westport, Portland and Perth, where Raby will be participating in their community coin box program from June 22 to July 19. “I really appreciate the support of businesses and that they are letting me fundraise in their stores,” he said.

As an added incentive, the first 10 virtual paddlers who raise $400 will receive a free Kayaking to Beat Cancer T-shirt. To say thank you to those who give, anyone who makes a $20 donation will be entered into a draw for one of Raby’s prints. “I’ve been doing this (raffle) for a few years now and it’s an opportunity to share one of my images. People seem to really enjoy my prints, so I thought I’d keep doing it,” he stated. For more information on Kayaking to Beat Cancer, call Amanda Gifford, fundraising co-ordinator of the Lanark, Leeds and Grenville unit of the Canadian Cancer Society, at 613-267-1058.

Excellent author My interest in Hanover began when I discovered that one of my favourite authors, Bill Bryson, resided there with his family for a number of years after returning to his native United States (heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a native of Des Moines, Iowa) following 20 years living and writing in Great Britain. Bryson is a newspaper writer/editor turned author which partly explains my interest in the man and his work.

Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; With summer scheduled to officially arrive on Saturday what better time to write about some of the great adventures which are available to us in this part of North America. A few weeks ago I offered a few details about our spring driving vacation in New England and in particular how we managed to fool the weather prognosticators. The predicted showers were lingering nearby in many cases. We could see them in the distance. Yet they seemed to part and disappear whenever we arrived in a new community or district. In southeastern Vermont we stopped and walked around the picture perfect community of Windsor with its stately homes and which reminded Frank LeBlanc of his native Nova Scotia. As outlined in the earlier column we also crossed and photographed the WindsorCornish covered bridge. The 460-foot structure, which links Vermont and New Hampshire, is the longest two-span covered bridge in the world and the longest wooden bridge in the United States. After scoping out and taking pictures of a few other less spectacular covered bridges we criss-crossed the Connecticut River (the waterway divides Vermont and New Hampshire) before arriving in the busy town of Lebanon, NH where we made a brief pit stop. We had less than a week to complete the itinerary I had put together. Our second major destination on this particular day was the town of Hanover NH which is just north of Lebanon. I have wanted to visit Hanover for some time but on our previous visits we always had something else on the agenda. This time I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to be denied! My wife and the LeBlancs didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what to expect, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure. But afterward all three said how much they had enjoyed the experience. There were three reasons I wanted to see Hanover, well four really. The town of 11,000 is the home of Dartmouth College one of the so-called Ivy League schools. The Ivy League is actually an athletic conference. But the eight member universities, all located in the American northeast, are among the most wellknown and prestigious in the US (the world for that matter). Among them are Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts; Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut; Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey and Columbia University in New York City. Dartmouth, with an undergraduate enrolment of just over 4,000 students, is the smallest of the eight schools. In truth, seeing Dartmouth College was my third reason for visiting Hanover. The fourth reason is because Brad Ausmus, the new manager of the Detroit Tigers, is a Dartmouth alumnus. As regular readers already know, the Tigers are my favourite Major League Baseball team.

Carleton Place teen travels to Florida for North American pageant

Community – Carleton Place teen, Haven Lamothe, knows the feeling of being a princess for a day is magical, and what better place to make this dream come true once again than near Cinderella’s castle? June 24 to 28 the 15-year-old local girl will be one of three Canadian competitors (and the only Ontario resident) to take part in the Miss Teen American Beauty pageant in Kissimmee, Florida. “It’s a completely different experience,” the local hopeful said. The upcoming competition will be held inside the Osceola High School in Kissimmee. America is known for its pageants with girls taking part in competitions before they can walk. The upcoming competition, hosted by Harrison Productions L.L.C., welcomes competitors from the age of toddlers to those in their golden years. Lamothe will be competing in the 15 to 19-yearold category and is expecting the competition to be stiff. “I’m just going to go out there and laugh and have fun,” she said. This step into an international competition came after a year of introduction into the pageant world. It all started in January 2013 when Lamothe attended the Miss Teen Ontario competition and came home with the Miss Teen Lanark County crown. That year of taking part in community events and reaching out to organizations struck a cord with Lamothe and she wanted to do more. This brought her to Miss Teen Canada competition last July where she cheered some of her new pageant friends on to victory and had a week to remember in Toronto. Following this she had more

friends forever. You always have that experience to share together.” In addition to new friends, the pageant circuit has taught Lamothe how to manage her time, speak well in public, and overall how to be a confident young lady. She jokes: “Pageants are the same as sports but you’re in better shoes.” The experience hasn’t been all fun and games. Lamothe said her desire to take part in such competitions has come with a lot of bullying and jealousy from her peers and some adults. It’s during these times that her pageant family comes in handy and encourages her to take the next step. The 15-year-old was invited to enter the Miss Teen American Beauty pageant by Miss Teen Canada director, Christi Woolard who has been following the Carleton Place girl’s progress through the last year. Lamothe said she was surprised to receive the invitation having not placed at nationals or regionals, but hopes her growth in

each pageant she competes in comes through. The Miss Teen American Beauty pageant focuses on assisting the girls in their personal development through beauty, style and cultural appreciation. The four-day competition is four full days of non-stop activity. This includes a glamour slumber party and a day at Downtown Disney amongst many hours of choreography rehearsals. Greco gym in Carleton Place is helping Lamothe become her fittest self by sponsoring her with access to their facilities until the competition. Regardless of the outcome this June, Lamothe plans to put away her fourinch heels for the time being and focus her efforts on gaining modeling experience and preparing for her senior years of high school (she is currently finishing up Grade 10 at Notre Dame Catholic High School in Carleton Place). She hopes to one day use her public speaking skills she learned in pageants in a public relations career.

Celebrating 20 years of music memories Community – The Carleton Place and District Community Band (above) held a special concert titled ‘Celebrate Musical Memories’ to mark its 20th anniversary on Saturday, May 31 at the Carleton Place Town Hall. The evening was hosted by Carleton Place Mayor Wendy LeBlanc. Special guests during the celebration included Danny Albert on violin and Max Donaldson (right) from Notre Dame Catholic High School.

is worth the trip in and of itself. We enjoyed lunch in a downtown establishment with plenty of Dartmouth sports memorabilia and a seafood chowder that had Frank, the Maritimer, smiling from ear-to-ear. He didn’t leave a drop of the New England specialty. Hiking the AT On the way out of the restaurant Wendy spotted the last piece of the puzzle. A sign telling us that we were walking on the Appalachian Trail. An easy part of the trail to be sure, but none-the-less we can now say we walked a small portion of the AT. Of course we have a huge distance to go to even approach the difficult odyssey which is hiking the AT. Bryson and his friend did well by the way. But they didn’t make the entire distance. Only a small number actually finish the rugged and difficult

“marathon” hike. About 2,000 set out to do it annually. Just one in four complete the journey. The sign in downtown Hanover directed us to a point on the edge of town where the “real AT” disappears into the bush and heads back into the mountains. The route is rough and is marked by white blazes on tree trunks and rocks. The formidable trail passes through 14 states. The vast majority is wilderness although it does pass through or near many centres. The AT also crosses main highways and rivers at various points. Hikers carry everything they need on their backs and as our struggles with a few bags of purchases in downtown Hanover demonstrated, we’re probably not about to set off along the most difficult section of the AT, which is the New England portion. I do hope to return and walk a longer part of it sometime though. The four of us enjoy walking and even an afternoon junket along a portion of

the AT would be something special to add to our list of life’s experiences. For the most ardent hikers and outdoor enthusiasts among my readership the AT is a challenge you should definitely consider. Anyone else who simply enjoys an interesting

travel experience should think about visiting the areas I have outlined this week. Not terribly far afield and well worth the effort! If you have a comment or question for Jeff Maguire he can be reached by email at: jeffrey. maguire@rogers.com.

Gaslight entertains at Full Circle Theatre in Perth. Above, Tegan Mackey, Kathie Reid, David Bird and James Benda capture the tension and excitement of the BarnDoor Productions play. The classic mystery-thriller runs Thursday through Sunday this week at Full Circle Theatre in Perth.

Gaslight a crowd pleasing thrill ride at Full Circle Theatre Arts – Patrick Hamilton’s mystery-thriller Gaslight has been around forever. It’s one of the true classics of the thriller genre and you’d think that every nuance would have been explored by now, but Perth’s BarnDoor Productions’ (BDP) new edition of the script brings new excitement and new thrills to the play and turns it into a fastpaced crowd-pleaser that is full of surprises and excitement. Opening night audience members called it “tightly directed and beautifully acted”, “an actor’s play that lets them play all of the nuances.” One even said “When intermission came, I didn’t want the act to end. I wanted more!” From set and lighting to casting, the show is receiving high praise from patrons. In particular, the quality of the performances and the depth of the talent on stage is being singled out. “From supporting roles to leads, they are all so strong!” said a patron. Veteran Kathie Reid as the dour cook Elizabeth and newcomer Emily Richardson as the saucy maid Nancy each have their moment to shine, whether it is Reid creating suspense by simply holding a plate (and her breath) while events happen offstage or Richardson setting her sights (and more) on the master of the house. They also provide strong support for the principals in several other scenes. James Benda is the master of the house, Jack Manningham and he alternates between quiet authority and terrifying

emotional heights at the twist of a word. This is possibly Benda’s best performance in a resume that includes BDP’s Sleuth and their all-time second-best seller Maggie’s Getting Married. David Bird was, at one time, a real-life London police officer, so it should be no surprise that he excels at playing a London police officer. Inspector Rough is the prototype for the on-stage British police inspector: he is funny, dramatic, driven and, when needed, physical. Rough is the catalyst that sets the plot in motion and Bird pushes it along with energy and authority. The whole play revolves around the character of Mrs. Manningham – Bella. Onstage for about 85 per cent of the show, Tegan Mackey swings between complacent housewife, frightened invalid and, finally, wild insanity without a break and makes it all believable and sympathetic. The final moments of Bella’s breakdown bring the audience to the edge of their seat with gasping anticipation. It’s a show full of visual excitement, as well. Set in Victorian London, in the era of gaslight and horse-drawn carriages, the play benefits from a set that is itself gathering high praise for authenticity and beauty. From genuine period furniture to flickering gaslamps, it’s a large part of the show, as is the accompanying soundtrack of music by Jean Sibelius, which puts the audience in the right frame of mind prior to the show and keeps them there throughout.

Along with that, the lighting is suitably patchy and flickering, reinforcing the mood of the play. The final element of the package is that the script, which has recently fallen into the public domain, has been trimmed from a lengthy and somewhat old-fashioned three-act format to a fastmoving two-act version. BDP has taken some 39 pages (about one-third) out of the original script, leaving a play that is lean and exciting from start to finish. The production lasts just over one hour and 45 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission, but in that time, audiences are telling producers that they are treated to some great theatre, superb performances and a tight, highly entertaining play. It’s best summed up in the words of the New Yorker Magazine’s review of the 1938 Broadway production: “I can give you only one clue – GO SEE IT!” Gaslight concludes its run with performances June 19, 20 and 21 at 7:30 p.m. and June 22 at 1:30 p.m., at the Full Circle Theatre, 26 Craig Street, Perth, near Last Duel Park. Note the special summer curtain times, one-half hour ahead of BDP’s usual. Tickets are $22 at the door; $20 reserved; $10 for students. Simply call 613-267-1884 for reservation. No credit cards required; cash at the performance is requested. For more information, go to www.barndoorproductions. ca. Submitted by BarnDoor Productions. THE EMC - 24 - Thursday, June 19, 2014

The BIA Lambs Down Park Festival on Saturday June 21 10am until 3pm. Come celebrate important history while having a lot of fun at the Carleton Place Business Improvement Association (BIA) Lambs Down Park Festival! The festival celebrates the lamb wool industry, with Carleton Place being the largest distribution centre for lamb wool in Canada!

known leader of the Carleton Place Christmas Bird Count, enthusiastically guided the group through the evening culminating in a talk by Dr. Jayne Yack. Jayne provided a fascinating talk on the secret world of insect communications with a focus on butterflies and caterpillars, many of them native to eastern Ontario. Jayne played recordings of sounds caterpillars make and demonstrated that some butterflies can actually hear sounds made by birds, insects and even people. It was a very successful and enjoyable evening, and everyone is reminded to put May 15, 2015 on their calendars for next years’ gathering. This summer, MVFN will be running its regular canoe/

kayak program and annual summer walks, and the club’s monthly natural history lectures will resume with a new series in September. Please see our new website, www.mvfn.ca, for details of these upcoming activities and for membership information. The new site took roughly one year and hundreds of hours to define, design and have implemented by MVFN’s web team along with Chris Bruce, a local naturalist and web designer. The new site makes it much easier to see what activities MVFN is involved in and to find information in a user friendly manner. Submitted by the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists.

Host families needed for students

Community – In addition to the two groups of Japanese teens heading to the area August 2014, Muskoka Language International is pleased to have this year 10month (school-term) placements arriving September 2014. The first group consists of 14year-old girls from Japan’s Denenchofu School. Their main goal is to immerse themselves in Canadian family life and practice their English. The group is due to arrive on July 29 and will stay until Aug. 11. The second group is a mix of 17 and 18-year-old boys and girls from Ritsumeikan Uji School, in Japan. They will spend their weekdays taking English as a Second Language program at Carleton Place High School and spend time with their host families on evenings and weekends. Local teachers will instruct the students while they are at school. This group will arrive

Aug. 15 and leave Aug. 30. The third group is arriving Sept. 1. These students attend school throughout the Upper Canada District School board and home stays are required from September 2014 to June 30, 2015. That’s where area families come in. While the younger group (Denenchofu School) will be with their host families throughout the day, older students (Ritsumeikan Uji) spend much of their time at school in Carleton Place. They are at school during the day so it’s a little less intense for families. The school year students will immerse themselves in our culture attending local high schools. No matter which age group a family decides to host, the experience is well worth it, In order to qualify to host, families must be able to provide the student with his or her own room and anyone over the age of

19 must pass a vulnerable sector background check. Organizers also hope to match students with his or her ideal family, which means the more family members, the better, especially if there are teens around the same age, Buses are provided for the older students to and from Carleton Place High School daily with buses from Perth, Almonte and Smiths Falls. Students residing in Carleton Place might require a drive to or from school, or they can walk if they are close enough to the school. The students who are attending school for the school year will either be bused or if close enough, may walk to school. All host families are compensated. Anyone looking for more information can call JoAnn Campbell or Katrina Hodge at 613-264-8843/613-366-5512, or email jcampbell@mliesl.com or khodge@mliesl.com.

The Canadian Co-operative Woolgrowers, located at 142 Franktown Road, grades and markets close to three million pounds of raw wool each year. To mark the town’s woolly past, the BIA and the Woolgrowers will come together on Saturday, June 21 to host the Lambs Down Park Festival. The BIA and the Wool Growers are hoping to bring awareness to the public about the great heritage attraction we have in Carleton Place. The festival will run from 10am until 3pm on the Wool Growers property. With the festival focusing on our woolly past, there will be all kinds of activities that will help build the fibre of participants including hands-on demonstrations of sheep herding involving working sheep dogs, sheep shearing and the spinning of wool. There will also be tours of the Woolgrowers facilities. Jack Denovan will be the Master of Ceremonies, providing music and entertainment all day. There will be local fresh produce, jams, lamb, baked goods, painting, sculptures, jewellery and so much more! For the young and the young at heart there will be a petting zoo and pony rides, balloon art, face painting and interactive gymnastics activity. You can relax at a picnic table, enjoying a bite to eat, having a drink and taking in great local entertainment. Two fundraising walks and BBQ in support of LAWS and People First. With the Woolgrowers housed in what was originally the round house and machine shops for the Canadian Pacific Railway, there will be a great display set up on Carleton Place’s railway past. The Lambs Down Park Festival was created by the BIA with the goal of bringing together friends and family, so that we can enjoy and learn about the heritage of the community. The BIA has had great success with family events and is inviting everyone to come out and enjoy the displays, lunch and entertainment. Further details on the festival can be obtained by contacting the BIA at 613-257-8049 or by e-mail at cmcormond@carletonplace.ca.

Lifestyle – The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) held their annual general meeting (AGM) at the Almonte Civitan Community Hall on May 15 followed by their Spring Gathering event which had record-setting attendance. The AGM was conducted by Ken Allison, president of MVFN, with attendance by the board and club members. Ken provided the membership with an overview of the organizations activities and finances over the last year. This is the club’s 26th year as an organization and throughout this time it has been very active promoting the understanding and awareness of the natural world in our community, with its popular natural history lectures series, canoe, hiking and birding outings, environmental programs for children and youth, and strong support for local conservation issues. The treasurer, Robert McCook, presented the finances which show a wellmanaged club which can continue to be very active. Ken introduced each of the board members for the coming year, and of special note is that Cliff Bennett, one of the founding members, will once again be president. The 2014/15 board members can found on MVFN’s new website (www.MVFN.ca) under the ABOUT MVFN menu. The AGM was followed by the Spring Gathering event which started with a reception, where old friends and acquaintances shared drinks and chatted; many visited the Young Naturalists exhibit and purchased raffle tickets in support of the MVFN bursary fund, which supports young people going into the environment education field. Presentation of the 2014 MVFN Champion for Nature also took place. Botanist David White was presented with the award for his work in establishing a Lanark Flora which is available online for public use and furthers plant and habitat conservation in our region. The Almonte Civitan Club did an excellent job of providing top notch service and a very tasty meal. A special thanks to all the volunteers, especially Cliff Bennett, who organized the team and co-ordinated the event. The master of ceremonies, Iain Wilkes, MVFN’s publicity chair and well-

Find out why The Butler Did It at Studio Theatre this July Arts – It might seem unfair to assume that the poor butler is always the culprit in the ‘30sstyle murder mysteries we love so much. But in the play-within-a-play comedy, The Butler Did It, premiering soon at the Studio Theatre, the butler is the obvious suspect. Why? Because all the characters have the same last name – Butler! Described as the off-Broadway equivalent of Deathtrap, The Butler Did It, written by Walter Marks and Peter Marks, is a diabolically clever comedy thriller that mixes murder and mayhem, laughter and chills in the glittering world of the theatre. The scene is set where Anthony J. Lefcourt, writer and director, is rehearsing his newest work, a classic “whodunit” (in which, as mentioned, all the characters either play a butler or are named Butler) hoping to regain his former glory as a playwright. Desperately eager to spur his cast on to great performances, he “stages” the murder of one of the actresses, after which the plot begins to twist and turn with such dazzling ingenuity – and hilarity – that soon actors and audience alike have lost track of what is real and what is make-believe. Finally, a surprise ending sets matters straight in a most bizarre and ironic way. It’s a “genuinely amusing burlesque of those good old ‘30s movie thrillers in which the killer is unmasked in the final moments” (NY Daily News) and just the sort of light-hearted fare that makes for great summer entertainment. The Butler Did It is directed by theatre veteran Patricia Parry (who helmed last De-

cember’s successful The Wonderful Story of Mother Goose) and stars Paul Roach as the director, Anthony J. Lefcourt; Norman MacDonnell as Mr. Butler (and Robert Lattimore); Julie Heney as Mrs. Butler (and Angela Simpson); Satinka Schilling as Vickie Butler (and Claudia Barnes); Charles Henderson as Aldo, the Butler, (and Michael Severino); and Garry Welch as Detective Mumford (and Sam Farber). The show premieres Thursday, July 3 and continues July 4, 5, 11 and 12 at 8 p.m., and July 6 and 13 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $22 (cash; exact change if possible) at The Book Nook (60 Gore Street E.), and at Tickets Please (39 Foster Street), 613-485-6434, www.ticketsplease.ca, which accepts credit card and phone orders (a convenience fee applies). Tickets at the door are $24, and students with ID pay just $10 at the door on show night. The laughs continue in August with the Studio Theatre’s second great summer show, Oscar Wilde’s classic social satire, An Ideal Husband, premiering Aug. 14 for eight performances. And when you purchase tickets for both The Butler Did It and An Ideal Husband you’ll pay just $40 for both shows. For details, dates and show times be sure to visit studiotheatreperth.com. Remember, Perth’s Studio Theatre is air conditioned and fully accessible, thanks to our brand new elevator. Enjoy a show (or two!) at the beautifully renovated Studio Theatre, and see how good community theatre can be! Submitted by the Studio Theatre.

Roam the countryside at Burnstown Heritage House & Garden Tour June 28 Community – Are you interested in history or homes or gardens? Do you want to spend an interesting afternoon roaming the countryside? Then do not miss the second Burnstown Heritage House & Garden Tour on Saturday, June 28 from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. There are seven locations in and around Burnstown to visit: four gardens, three heritage homes, school, church, radio station, and labyrinth. Included in the $25 price is a strawberry social at the Burnstown United Church. Your passport provides a map and a short description of each location. The order of viewing is up to you – start and finish anywhere along the route. There are two locations in Burnstown, besides the church. One is the 1889 one-room school house. Today it is the Neat, with its café and roast house. Lately, it has become known for its unique concert venue. There is even a concert scheduled for the evening of the tour (June 28) at 8 p.m. if you wish to purchase tickets (www.neatfood. com). The tour includes the garden and perhaps you will also see some freetrade coffee being roasted. The second location is one of the village’s oldest buildings. It was built around 1850 as the home of businessman, George Rochester. He was the owner of the Rochester Mill and other businesses in Burnstown. The building was later used as a cheese factory before reverting to a home. Today it is the location of Prime Valley Realty and a gift shop, Rustic Remnants. The tour includes the basement to show the timbers and floorboards. While there, listen to tales of rescues and drownings on the Madawaska.

The rear garden layout is reminiscent of a formal French country courtyard. The front garden is more informal and relaxed. Back by popular demand is the nearby farm of Joan & Ross Headrick. You can visit a log cabin from the early 1800s, lovingly furnished to that time period. Check out the handmade quilt and interesting gadgets from pioneer times.

With sandy, dry soil, it was originally designed in a hot, dry, Mediterranean style. Now the garden is transitioning into a partial shade garden, featuring hostas, daylilies and perennials. There is also a small goldfish pond. While there, enjoy the owners’ artistic works. Valerie’s botanical paintings are often of the plants in the garden. John’s work is mainly architectural, but he also enjoys painting small acrylics of their garden. Valley Heritage Radio Station is also included in the tour.

The station uses turntables and tape decks, as well as modern equipment. The actual building was once the Jack Russell Drive-In Theatre. There may be a live band on

We are proud to say that we are an environmentally friendly company and that all sewage waste is disposed of at a local Sewage Treatment facility.

News - Tweed Inc. is now officially open. At a grand opening ceremony on June 16, (the anniversary of Hershey’s opening 51 years earlier) the marijuana production facility held a ribbon-cutting ceremony with Mayor Dennis Staples. Among the invited guests were Robert Dowdall, Smiths Falls police chief, fire chief Norman Beauchamp as well as area mayors and local councillors. In his opening remarks, Bruce Linton, chair of the company, pointed out that the group of entrepreneurs who started this endeavor had only embarked on their journey 361 days ago. “We came to town 252 days ago, 136 days ago we got our licence and 31 days ago we shipped our first product,” he said. So far the Tweed facility has taken on 40 employees but has also chewed through 3,398 person days of construction work, including electrical and plumbing; most of them local. “I’ve been overwhelmed by the support from this town – from chiefs Dowdall and Beauchamp and particularly Mayor Dennis Staples,” said Chuck Rifici, CEO. The event started at 11 a.m. with a reception for invited guests, that included refreshments catered by Amy Rensby of Magnolia Catering in Smiths Falls in addition to tours of the facility. Visitors were suitably impressed with the level of security both digital and biometric, the sterility of the plant and the staggering amount of work already completed and still to be done. “We have three grow rooms right now, and nine more under construction and the facility can handle 30 grow rooms,” explained Rifici to the group of visitors he was guiding. Each grow room can be harvested every 10 weeks or so, and each harvest yields about $5 million of product. There was some excitement as one guest arrived in a helicopter. Steve Kaszas, managing director with BMO Nesbitt Burns and the Kaszas Group, whose financial investment was instrumental in Tweed’s beginnings, made a grand entrance but then soon blended in with the rest of the wellwishers at the gathering. After the tours, guests were invited to a well appointed and catered barbecue on the front lawn. There were chairs and tables set up for the comfort of guests. “We’re prepared for up to 400 people,” said Rifici. Indeed there was a good turnout of about 200 people from town. Meanwhile this is just the beginning of periodic events that Tweed will hold over the course of the year. “We can’t advertise,” said Linton, “so it’s going to be important for us to do events like this from time to time.”

Consultation workshop with town, ROI to start June 19 By HOWAIDA SOROUR hsorour@perfprint.ca

News - A brief special committee-ofthe-whole preceded the regular Smiths Falls town council meeting on Monday, June 16. The first item on the agenda was an in-camera discussion of a contractual matter brought forward by fire Chief Normand Beauchamp. The matter was dealt with quickly and councillors returned to chambers. New CAO The matter of the newly appointed CAO, Malcolm Morris was brought to council attention by director of corporate services, Kerry Costello. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He will start on Aug. 4 and it will be a 35-hour a week job posting with a five-year term with an option to renew,â&#x20AC;? said Costello. She then advised council that staff would like to bring forward a bylaw to authorize the appointment immediately and add it to the nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s council agenda.

tival on Saturday starting at 9 a.m. The Mayor also announced that Brooke Henderson, is now heading off to participate in the U.S. Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Open and while she is an amateur golfer she is ranked third in the world. â&#x20AC;˘ On June 27 the opening of the Rideau Ferry Dock will take place in the morning while in the evening the Kinsmen will be hosting the Sports Person of the Year banquet. â&#x20AC;˘ On June 28 the annual Smiths Falls Triathlon will take place and on the same day the Highland on the Rideau will take place at Lower Reach Park. Following the announcements each of the councillors gave a brief report. All the councillors mentioned their attendance at Open Doors, each highlighting one or two events they were particularly impressed with such as the food bank. All the councillors also reported on their attendance at Tweedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s open house. Coun. Ken Graham had one interesting report about the members of the flying club who have decided to use the funds they have collected to build a structure on the airport property to house the airportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s snow removal equipment so they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to spend an hour each time cleaning off the equipment before they can use it.

Council reports On Thursday, June 19 the Youth Consultation sessions moderated by the Rural Institute of Ontario will begin at 6 p.m. and will continue on Friday starting at 8:30 a.m. to end at noon. The mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report was a little lonâ&#x20AC;&#x153;We issued about 150 invitations and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a good response from a num- ger and included his attendance at the ber of different groups and individuals,â&#x20AC;? Chamber of Commerce meeting on June 4 where he updated the chamber said Mayor Dennis Staples. of council activity. He had also attended â&#x20AC;˘ June 17 at 3 p.m. there was a ribbon a ministerial association meeting where cutting ceremony at the new medical he was asked to address and update local ministers on what was happening in turnkey facility at Cornelia Court; â&#x20AC;˘ June 21 is the Healthy Living Fes- town.

One June 5 Staples reported that he had attended the Rideau Tourism Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual general meeting and then was on hand for the opening of little league season at lower reach park on the same day. On June 6, Staples attended the Willis College graduation and was pleased to find out that 90 per cent of the graduates had already found employment, mostly in town. On June 7, the mayor attended the Police Services board meeting and on June 12 a television group from Orlando Florida interviewed him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I mention this because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the 50th interview Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had since Tweed came to Smiths Falls, and the great thing is that we not only talk about Tweed but about the town as well, and next week the Fifth Estate will be in Smiths Falls,â&#x20AC;? said Staples. Council A series of bylaws were passed most of which simply make official recommendations that were brought forward at previous committees-of-the-whole. A bylaw to add another handicap parking space in front of the Legion has now been passed and will be implemented very soon. A bylaw to amend the fees and charges in the corporate services department has been passed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is to authorize modest fee increases for things like marriage licenses and tax certificates to reflect the cost of getting that work done internally and to position the town in line with surrounding municipalities,â&#x20AC;? explained Coun. Graham.

The bylaw to authorize the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s engineering technologist to go ahead and by pass the usual tender procedure and to obtain three quotes was passed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Staff brought this to our attention last week. The culvert just east of the water treatment plant needs immediate attention so there isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t time to put it through the usual tendering process and instead weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re giving staff the go ahead to get three quotes for the implementation of the remedial work,â&#x20AC;? explained Coun. Shawn Pankow. The next bylaw was to adopt the revised municipal cost sharing contributions as per the CAOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report from last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s technical in nature, but there were two municipalities that was paying more than another of the share of the cost sharing phase-in so this just evens out the contributions,â&#x20AC;? explained Coun. Jay Brennan. At this point, the bylaw authorizing the town to enter into an employment agreement with Malcolm Morris for Chief Administrative Officer was passed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is currently the CAO of Tay Valley, and I look forward to Malcolm Morris joining us. We have been incredibly well served by Stephen Fournier and he will be staying with us for the transition period,â&#x20AC;? said Staples.

ered unofficial. Clarkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s victory is a bright spot for the Conservatives on an otherwise dismal night for the party. With the anticipation of a tight race for power in Ontario, the Liberals, led by Kathleen Wynne, pulled away to a majority win. The Liberals now have control of the Legislature with 58 seats. The Conservatives have 28 with the NDP at 21. Calling this campaign, â&#x20AC;&#x153;incredibly draining,â&#x20AC;? Clark said he will continue

to ensure his focus is on Leeds and Grenville and its needs. Looking forward he says hydro rates, opposition to the closure of the Kemptville Campus of the University of Guelph and working to keep the casino in Gananoque and the Township of Leeds and the 1000 Islands will be top priorities. As for Lundy he feels good about the campaign. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m feeling great. We had a good response at the door and way more support than we had before.

We expected a great response at the poll this time as we worked very hard; the whole team did. I think this is the biggest campaign the NDP have put on in Leeds-Grenville and I believe it will be the most successful,â&#x20AC;? he commented. And while Milks may not have won locally, her party did well on the provincial level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy! We won provincially and now the plans continue to help the farmers and the people in providing for jobs,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Town council appoints Malcolm Morris as chief administrative officer

Equitable ice fees welcomed by users By HOWAIDA SOROUR hsorour@perfprint.ca

News – The new ice rental fees that will now apply to the shoulder seasons are being welcomed by regular winter ice users. “I think the rate increase for spring and fall users does equalize the user fee structure. Not discriminatory anymore. The ice rate, in my opinion, should be the guide to meeting operating costs... not number of users,” said Barb Maitland, ice director, Smiths Falls Minor Hockey Association. The discrepancy between the fees charged to spring and fall ice users has been in place since the arenas opened, and it wasn’t until the cost sharing agreements were being analyzed and examined that the discrepancy was noticed. “It was principally the staff who brought it to my attention that this was an opportunity that the town could look at in terms of increasing revenue,” said acting CAO Stephen Fournier. What emerged was that some users were being charged the full adult fee, of $165 per hour (going up to $170 this year) while others were being charged the youth rate of $120 per hour of ice. “It was the boys and girls hockey associations that pointed this out to the staff,” said Steve Doyle, president of the Smiths Falls Girls Hockey Association. “What we’ve been telling them is that they’re penalizing the non-profit organizations while they weren’t charging the for-profit, hockey camps and hockey schools.” The difference between the two rates is substantial and according to Fournier, there was no reason for it that he was able to ascertain. Meanwhile this is not the only change that is expected to be implemented over the coming year. “The overall organizational structure of the arenas is going to be looked at and other revenue streams will be examined, I don’t think it’s going to stop here,” said Fournier.

Morris has focused his formal education in the areas of organizational development, performance management, and conflict resolution and expects to become accredited as a Certified Municipal Officer (CMO) over the summer

SAFETY TIPS Carbon Monoxide Alarms: Installing a carbonmonoxide alarm near the sleeping areas of your home will alert you to the presence of this deadly gas. It is a good idea to invest in a batteryoperated alarm that will continue to work during power failures. SAFETY TIPS Smoke Alarms: Test your smoke alarms. If a fire starts in your home while you are asleep, you want to know about it immediately. Some homes are equipped with electrically connected smoke alarms that may not work when the power is out. Make sure your home has a batteryoperated smoke alarm on every level. SAFETY TIPS Candles: If you use candles, make sure you keep them away from all combustible materials. Never leave them unattended and place them out of reach of young children. Candles should be placed in solid, secure candle holders and protected by a glass chimney.

Obituary

Town mourns loss of brilliant lawyer and one of its finest People First walkathon By HOWAIDA SOROUR hsorour@perfprint.ca

News - He would not have been at all pleased about this article simply because it was about him. But it’s impossible in a town this size not to mark the passing of one of the community’s most respected figures, Jack Kirkland. On Saturday morning, June 7, Kirkland passed away peacefully in hospital at age 77, and as per the wishes of this intensely private man there will be no funeral. “We were all there when he died, and I think that was enough for Dad,” said his youngest daughter Jacqueline. His friends - and he had many - speak highly of him citing his deep loyalty, humility, and delightful intellect. “He was a good friend, a great colleague and I admired him for his refined sense of social justice,” said Justice Michael Quigley, a friend for nearly 50 years. That refined sense of social justice was what set Kirkland apart in his profession, and led him to take on more pro-bono cases than most, to fight for the fairest and best deal for his clients, at the same time showing appreciation for the people who had charged those clients. “He worked with us rather than against us. There were no barriers. He always represented his clients but did it in such a way that he respected the police element of the system,” said Robert Dowdall, chief of police, Smiths Falls Police Services. Friends and colleagues describe him

Jack Kirkland passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 14 surrounded by his wife and children. as fair, generous, humble, a quiet humanitarian. “He never owned a new car, he never had a credit card, never had a watch, he had no regard for the trappings of consumerism, or material things. He didn’t care about that stuff,” said Jacqueline. He cared deeply about his family and people he might be able to help. His daughter Catherine remembers a homeless man who lived in the back shed and who was so much a part of their own childhood and family gatherings that at his funeral, paid for by her father, the attendees were all lawyers and judges.

“My parents are loving and generous, so we always had a cast of characters at our home,” said Catherine. Born in Almonte, Kirkland attended Queen’s University when he was just 15 years old. By the time he was 27 he had already made partner in a law firm. Kirkland was an accomplished lawyer, specializing in criminal law but acting in all facets of law for more than 50 years. “He was one of Smiths Falls’ finest citizens, a brilliant and skilled lawyer and I stress the word brilliant,” said Mayor Dennis Staples. He is described as a renaissance man, who loved to read and discuss literature, philosophy, religion and was extremely knowledgeable about music, particularly jazz. “He was very erudite, and had a great sense of humour and like his father he was a great writer and loved the written word,” said Quigley. He also valued and participated in sports, playing hockey every Sunday morning for years. A fighter and survivor, Kirkland had been diagnosed with a rare cancerous tumour more than 20 years ago. He underwent surgery and was told he had a 50 per cent chance of surviving another five years, recalls Quigley. It didn’t slow him down one iota says his close friend who describes him as a workaholic who arrived at his office at 5 a.m. every morning and worked until after 5 p.m. every evening. His work ethic was legend in town. Staples recalls that on those occasions when he was headed

out of town very early in the morning he’d invariably run into Kirkland having a coffee with a colleague at 4:30 a.m. “In recent years he tempered that and would leave the office at 4:30 in the evening, his idea of taking it easy was getting home a half hour earlier,” Quigley said with a chuckle. A devoted family man, Kirkland raised his five children with his wife, Beverley here in town. “He was an experiential educator,” said Catherine. “Everything was an education with him and we adored him. We had a very rich childhood.” Kirkland will be deeply missed by his family, friends and colleagues as a loyal, witty ally and as a humanitarian who would always listen and act where he could with no interest in rewards. He was predeceased by his parents, Hal and Beth (Steele); his infant son, John; and his son, Joseph (2006). He will be forever missed by his wife, Beverley; his children, Jimmy (Crystal Lemay), Mary, Catherine (Christopher Newton) and Jacqueline (Gene Bruce); his grandchildren, Alexa, Leah, Olivia, Madeline, Adam, Jackson, Clara, Clayton, Celeste and Atley; his brother, James T. Kirkland of Toronto; his daughters-in-law, Louise Kirkland and Lisa Giffin; special family friend, Freddy Laphen; and his many friends and colleagues. Honouring his request, there was a private family celebration of his life and no visitation or funeral. In lieu of flowers, donations were made to the Association in Defence of the Wrongly Convicted (aidwyc.org).

Community – The 2014 People First of Lanark County (PFoLC) walkathon is a fun and healthy way for the community to come together for a good cause. The rain or shine march, now in its eighth year, is held in conjunction with the Carleton Place Business Improvement Association’s (BIA) Lambs Down Park Festival on Saturday, June 21. “People First of Lanark County members are looking forward to walking with pride,” president Manon Lépine said, “and we are always happy to let the community know who we are.” Registration begins at 9:30 a.m. at the Moore House on Bridge Street, located across from the Carleton Place Town Hall. The walk starts at 10 a.m., and following opening remarks, participants will make their way down Bridge Street to the grounds of Canadian Co-operative Wool Growers Limited on Franktown Rd. Walkathon pledge forms can be picked up at the PFoLC office, situated on the property of the Free Methodist Church at 355 Moffatt St. in Carleton Place. “Just give us a call and then stop on by to pick one up,” Lépine said. A barbecue will follow. For more info about the walkathon or PFoLC, call 613-257-7111.

Looking Back 100 YEARS AGO - June 19, 1914 Fire Equipment Inspection The firemen answered call 52 yesterday morning, corner Beckwith and Main streets, to find the inspector waiting for them but no fire. They made a ready response to the fire alarm and were on the street with a reel almost before the bell had stopped ringing. They were kept busy for a couple of hours demonstrating the efficiency of the town’s fire fighting equipment and their ability to manipulate it. They had four streams going at the same time from different hydrants. The engine was also tested and appeared to do excellent work. 50 YEARS AGO - June 18. 1964 Council passes expenditures for all school construction, no vote of citizens required. Department must approve of costs reaching $335,000. In a sweeping move, Town Council on Monday night passed two resolutions which approve the application of the Public School Board to provide funds for the construction of general purpose rooms at Elgin and New Aberdeen Schools and also for the construction of a major addition to the Collegiate. Total estimated cost will be $334, 738 and it was decided, following discussion, that the expenditure will no follow the usual pattern of going to a vote of the people. 25 YEARS AGO - June 15, 1989 Deakin devoted disciple Retiring Jean Vanier School principal Valerie Deakin said, “it was nice so many former students, teachers and friends could come,” as she was given a special salute last Wednesday. The tributes came during a spring tea with over 200 invited guests in attendance. Jean Newson, retired principal and former trustee and chairman with the Lanark County Board of Education was the guest speaker. She spoke glowingly about Mrs. Deakin’s 22 years as principal at Jean Vanier. Using every letter of her surname she described Mrs. Deakin as dedicated, enthusiastic, ambitious, kind and intelligent. For the last letter she said “there is nobody like her.” 10 YEARS AGO - June 16, 2004 Public split over OPP costing It is an issue of which there are few fence-sitters. At a public meeting determined last Wednesday, residents either want the town to pursue a costing proposal from the Ontario Provincial Police or they don’t. There’s very little grey area. The meeting, held June 9 at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 95, began with mayor Dennis Staples explaining council had not made any decisions on whether or not to go with the costing. The reason for the meeting was to gauge public opinion on the matter. “This is an important question and that is identified by the number of folks out here tonight,” Staples said, noting the issue is an “emotionally charged” one. Staples explained a costing was sought in 1997 and the town obviously did not go ahead with OPP services at that time. Compiled by HOWAIDA SOROUR

Behemoth steak barbecue brings back long-lost memory

ifestyle – If it wasn’t for my dad, I wouldn’t know how to throw a curve ball. If it wasn’t for my dad, I wouldn’t know how to hit one either. I wouldn’t know how to drive a John Deere, or a standard transmission, and I sure wouldn’t know how to fight… like a girl. I have thought about my dad a bazillion times since he died in 2005. Father’s Day has been kind of non-existent in my life since then. We spend time with my brother some years, as he’s a dad to two of my most precious gifts – Em, 17, and Sophie, who just turned four. I’ve had the opportunity to throw some curve balls with Em, as she was big into softball when she was younger (like 10-12-ish). Sophie can fire a softball with either hand, and then she’ll laugh hysterically when I fetch it. I see the way my brother is with his girls. He’s so much like our father. He doesn’t say much when it comes to discipline, but he doesn’t have to. Sometimes, it’s just a look that will send them scurrying to their rooms. I remember that look with my father. It was barbecue time. Our family of four sat around the kitchen table and Dad had just taken the steaks off the grill and placed them on the

LAURIE WEIR Weir View table… closest to my elbow. I dove in, forked up the one on the top – which was the biggest one… honestly, I didn’t have a clue. They all looked huge. “Did you have to take the biggest one, Laurie?” I think I was about 11 at the time. “I was just getting it out of the way so I could get one underneath it.” My eyes brimmed with tears at the thought of him being upset with me. I grabbed the meat with my hands and put it back on the plate and got another one. That didn’t impress him either. “Just leave it,” he said, a little louder. I pitched a fit, flung the chair into the wall behind me and ran into my room, crying. “It’s just a stupid steak… you can eat it all. I don’t want any!” Tantrum - mine. Well, that did it. Dad marched me back to

my chair, placed the original steak on my plate and along with a baked potato and some kind of stupid vegetable, I had to suffer through the biggest steak I’d ever seen - gagging and blubbering the whole time. I learned a valuable lesson that day… not to be too aggressive with the steak plate. That lesson danced in the back of my mind on Sunday when I went with my guy to his son’s place for Father’s Day. I made macaroni salad and there were bacon-wrapped baked potatoes and cake. Did I mention the steak? Well, this steak was a five-pound behemoth piece of meat that filled the grill. It was about two inches thick, three feet long and there wasn’t a bare spot on the grill. It was a special ‘he-man’ steak, purchased for his dad, at the butcher shop. Luckily, there was only one steak and I didn’t have to feel guilty about having just a palm-sized piece of it, cut for me by the chef. I smiled to myself when the chef’s young lad, who is 11, asked for his second helping… “make it a bigger piece, please,” he said. This 11-year-old devoured his steak and still had room for the cake. Must be a boy thing.

Local family continues its support of hospital beneficiaries of their philanthropy. In recognition of their continued generosity and support of our hospital, a plaque bearing their names has been installed at the Smiths Falls site of the Hospital. “It is through the generosity of our donors that we are able to continue to provide the state of the art equipment and facilities to assist patients and families in their time of need,” noted Linda Bisonette, president. Resource nurse Ann Warwick, expressed her thanks to Foulkes: “Our staff appreciate your gifts and we will care for patients in this room and all others with the dignity and respect our patients deserve.” The dedication took place on the medical-

surgical area just outside Room 206. About PSFDH The Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital (the “Hospital”) is a fully accredited acute care health care organization located on two stateof-the-art sites.

Pat was a registered nurse who truly exemplified both the art and the science of nursing - a caring and compassionate lady who loved her community. Pat lost her battle with cancer in February of 2013. Tom has continued the tradition that he and Pat were known for, that is supporting a number of groups in our community.

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR DEAR EDITOR: I would like to start by saying well done Bill Stillwell of Portland. At least now I know there is one other tax payer in Rideau Lakes township who can also see, I believe, that our mayor, Ron Holman, and councillors are trying to bankrupt this great township. I can only hope that there are a few people who love this area as much as I do, and will step up to the plate come this fall and oust this mayor and council before it is too late. This constant habit of throwing good money after bad is quite obvious with our waste management. They spent approximately $500,000 on new garbage trucks, supposedly because the old ones were worn out. There are two of these new trucks back at the dealership

because they don’t work and no one can figure out what’s wrong, so in the meantime, two of the old broken down trucks are back on the road again. LOL. These new trucks are right hand drive, right hand load for safety reasons supposedly, but now they have to stop in the middle of the road to open the side doors to load. Now how safe is that I ask? When they get to the transfer station they still have to unload by hand. What has this half-million-dollar expense given the taxpayers other than more debt? If this type of ramped spending and borrowing keeps on we will soon be called the township with the biggest debt with nothing to show for it. Apparently, Mayor Holman made a statement this year that they said about $1.75 million off

our debt last year. Sounds good eh? Now seeing as how they borrowed almost $4 million last year is that not a case of one step forward and two or three backwards? If you are a taxpayer in Rideau Lakes Township and you read this letter and agree with me, that we need new people in our municipal government, and are willing and capable of stepping in the race or know someone who could, please pass this letter around. There has to be 10 more people in this township besides me who do not want to see our new township signs read: “Rideau Lakes Township, a great place to visit, but you can’t afford to live here.” Art French R.R. 2 Elgin

REGIONAL NEWS From page 34

â&#x20AC;˘ Supervise children when they use products containing button batteries. â&#x20AC;˘ Do not allow children to play with button batteries or remove them from household products. â&#x20AC;˘ Seek immediate medical attention if you suspect your child has swallowed a battery. Do not let the child eat

or drink, and do not induce vomiting until medical attention is received. While button-type batteries have unique risks associated with them, all types of batteries can pose a health risk if not properly installed, used, stored or discarded. Parents and caregivers can learn more at our healthycanadians.gc.ca by searching for Battery Safety.

IN MEMORIAM

GORDON, Rita R. – June 18, 2001 – In loving memory of a dear Mom, Mother-in-law, Nanny and Great Nanny. This month comes back with sad regret, It brings back a day we won’t forget. You fell asleep without saying goodbye, But our memories of you will never die. We miss you more than anyone knows, As each day passes our emptiness grows. The tears we shed will wipe away, But the ache in our hearts will always stay. No one knows the grief we bear, When our family meets and you’re not there. You left us suddenly, your thoughts unknown, But left us memories we’re proud to own. Please God, take a message, To our loved one in Heaven above, Tell her how much we miss her, And give her all our love. Luv You, Ron, Ruth, Terry and Sherry Paul and Janet Randy and Janice and families

IN MEMORIAM

JUBY – In precious memory of my darling husband Dale, who walked through Heaven’s Gate June 24th, 2012. A picture of you I carry in my heart, I close my eyes to see it When the world gets dark. A memory of you I carry in my soul, I wrap it close around me When the nights get cold. If you ask how I am, I’d say just fine, But the truth is If you could read my mind Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you, With aching heart and tears unseen, Wishing your absence was only a dream. Till we meet again, forever and always, xox Love Didee

OBITUARY

HENDRY Winifred “Win” The family of Win Hendry (Baigent: nee Holmes), predeceased by her husbands Alexander (Sandy) Hendry and Harry Baigent, sadly announce her passing at the Jubilee Hospital in Victoria, BC, on December 21, 2013 in her 94th year. In 1954 she started her 31 year nursing career at the Rideau Regional Centre, retiring from the Smiths Falls Hospital in 1985, where she created many lasting friendships. After retirement, she moved to Victoria in 1997 and enjoyed her new home. Loved walking by the sea shore, greatly admired all the early show of ﬂowers and delighted in the balmy weather of the west coast. She was a keen participant at her local community centre, enjoying her darts and crib games and maintaining an active social life. Over the years life presented her with many challenges, but she never lost her love of life and appreciation of all the positive things around her. Her favourite line everyday was “I always count my blessings”, and she always took the best of what each day offered her. She is survived by her sons Tony, Bernie, and Richard Baigent and daughter Leanne Kapostins (Hendry), 10 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at the St. Francis de Sales Church in Smiths Falls at 10:00 a.m. Saturday June 21, 2014. Cremation has taken place. Interment to follow in the St. Francis Cemetery. All are invited to share in a Celebration of Life at the Hanley Hall from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. In lieu of ﬂowers, please consider a donation to your favourite charity.

STREET – In loving memory of our dear parents, Cecil who passed July 29, 1990 and Vivian who passed June 29, 2009. A silent thought, a secret tear, Keeps their memory ever dear, Time takes away the edge of grief, But memory turns back every leaf. Always lovingly remembered Leslie and Adele Bev and Sophia Judy And all your family

LINDSAY, Darryl – June 18, 2014 – In loving memory of our son. They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason, Will change the way we feel. For no one knows the heartache, That lies behind our smiles, No one knows how many times, We have broken down and cried. We want to tell you something, So there isn’t any doubt, You are wonderful to think about, But so hard to do without. It has been ten years Always in our hearts Mom and Dad

MOLYNEAUX – In loving memory of my Mother Nina Molyneaux who departed this world on June 23, 2008 to be with the angels of heaven. Mother was a wonderful mix of warmth, strength, love and generosity. Her baking was legendary and she welcomed every person, be they stranger or friend into her home with an open heart, good food and lovely conversation. She was a beautiful woman who had a deep faith that guided her through her life, and provided inspiration to her family. Sincere, gentle, kind, words that were commonly known used to describe her. Mother always greeted you with a smile and warm hospitality. I urge all of us to dry our tears, suspend our sorrow and perhaps our hurt, just long enough to remember the sweet miracle of my mother. We are not here to mourn her loss, but to celebrate her life. God in heaven now rejoices with my mother, his new angel. She is deeply missed by her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, sister and friends. Until we meet again my Mother is deep within my heart. Your forever loving Son Mark Crawford Calgary, Alberta

REGIONAL NEWS

Connected to your community

This 1951 Prefect drove around the Mosport race track Lifestyle – Bill Marr of Moncton, New Brunswick, writes: “Hi, Bill. I enjoy your column and I think your readers will enjoy this story. “In May of 1961, my uncle and aunt, Jack and Mildred Chisholm, who resided in Willowdale (part of Toronto) decided to take a drive north of Bowmanville in their 1951 Prefect to enjoy a picnic lunch and have a look at the new race track facility known as Mosport (pronounced Moe-sport, not Moss-port). It so happened that paving had been completed just a few days previous, there were no workmen around, and Jack convinced the Security Commissionaire to let them take a drive around the course. “Can’t you picture the Prefect leaning through the turns at Mosport at 15 miles per hour! My aunt captured a couple of minutes of footage on an 8 mm camera from the passenger seat. What a ride!” The Prefect was a four-door sedan built in England by Ford from 1939 to 1953 and sold widely across Canada as one of the forerunners of the compact cars adopted by the Big Three in Detroit in 1960 with the Falcon from Ford, the Corvair from GM, and the Valiant from Chrysler (the other noteable forerunner was the VW Beetle). We lived in Toronto in 1951, when Jack and Mildred’s Prefect was new. My friends and I (I was nine at the time) thought the Prefect looked funny because it was skinnier than the standard 6-passenger North American car of that era. We jokingly said that

the Prefect must have been put into a vice at the factory and had its sides squeezed closer together. Ron Pickford was born in England in 1938 and moved with his family to the west end of Toronto in 1953. The family car for much of the 1950s was a Prefect, and Ron’s mother was photographed standing beside the car in a supermarket parking lot with a shopping cart filled with a week’s supply of groceries. When Ron showed me the photo, I asked him why it was taken. After all, how many people do you know who have their picture taken with a shopping cart? Ron told me the reason. When they lived in England, they had only a small ice box for a refrigerator and had to shop for groceries every day. The photo was for the benefit of the relatives still living in England. See what life is like in Canada! We have a big refrigerator and we can shop for the whole week in one day! I’m always looking for more stories. Email billtsherk@sympatico. ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, Ont. N8H 3W2. Everyone whose story is published in this column will receive a free autographed copy of my latest book: “OLD CAR DETECTIVE FAVOUThis shows the 1951 Prefect that drove around Mosport.

1944 crash killed Pilot Officer Richard Monaghan By JOSH VINCENT Edited by Blake Cameron and Chris Smith

News – The following is part of a series of research papers completed by Grade 10 History students at Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute as part of the Lest We Forget program. The features focus on residents of Smiths Falls who made the supreme sacrifice for their country during World War II. Richard John Joseph Monaghan was a 24-year-old soldier who died while fighting overseas during the Second World War. He was born on September 20th, 1919 in Smiths Falls, Ontario to Anne Elizabeth Monaghan and William John Monaghan. Richard had five brothers: Fred Monaghan (born in 1923), Charles Monaghan (born in 1928), Edward Monaghan (born in 1931), Patrick Monaghan (born in 1934), and Michael Monaghan (born in 1936). He also had five sisters: Ann Monaghan (born in 1924), Margret Monaghan (born in 1926), Cline Monaghan (born in 1929), Mary Monaghan (born in 1932), and Sandra Monaghan (born in 1939). He was never married and had no children. Richard completed elementary school at St. Francis Elementary School in Smiths Falls, Ontario from 1925 to 1932. He attended Smiths Falls Collegiate Institute, which he left in 1937. Richard was employed at Dominion Stores in Smiths Falls and Kapuskasing, Ontario as a Manager in 1937. He left this job in 1939 for a better position. Richard was also employed at the Kapuskasing Paper Mill in Kapuskasing from 1939 until the time he enlisted. From 1941 to 1942, Richard also attended a Pilot Observer’s Course. He lived on Stewart Avenue in Kapuskasing, Ontario. His religion was Roman Catholic. Richard signed up on February 21st, 1942 in Hamilton, Ontario. He went into the Royal Canadian Air

Force as an Aircraftman. While doing night time training overseas, Richard and his crew participated in a three-and-a-half hour crosscountry test. Of the eight aircrafts that participated, only seven of them returned. In Richard’s Certificate of Medical Examination upon enlisting, it is seen that he had no diseases listed on the form. Richard was 5 foot 7 inches and weighed 146 pounds. His eyesight and hearing were perfect. Richard’s complexion was ruddy and his development was good. His hair was brown in colour with blue eyes. Richard was a part of the Number 420 Squadron in World War 2. The squadron was formed in the late December of 1941 and was in action by late January of 1942. Their first recorded mission was on January 21st, 1942. The first operational mission the 420 Squadron had involved bombing Edmen, Germany. The squadron’s last operational mission was on April 18th, 1945. Their objective was to bomb Heligoland, Germany. May aircrafts crashed while trying to succeed their objective. Richard was killed in an aircraft crash; the following was discov-

ered in his accident report, which occurred on May 4th, 1944: “Aircraft was equipped with Nitrogen Cylinders, which were not charged due to lack of charging hose. The correct type of valve venting was found installed and tested for functioning on arrival of this unit. No suspected technical failure. Experienced pilot and crew took off on a night training flight. Aircraft signed out as serviceable and weather conditions were good. No further word has been received of the aircraft or crew. Eight aircraft took part in a 3 ½ hour cross-country. One aircraft returned early due to a malfunction. Six aircrafts completed the cross-country and returned to the base. One aircraft was reported missing, crew is as follows: P.J. Lapointe, R.J.J. Monaghan, E.W. Michie, C.W. Beer, J.H. MacDougall, W. Stobbart, H.E. Simmons, and G. Elwood.” After Richard John Joseph Monaghan’s death, his medals were entitled to his mother, Anne Elizabeth Monaghan. Anne was given Richard’s 1939 to 45 Star (awarded after soldier has given after six months of duty), Air Crew Europe Star (awarded for two months of operational flying from the United Kingdom over Europe between September 3rd, 1939 and June 5th, 1944), Italy Star (awarded for one day operational service in Sicily or Italy between June 11th, 1943 and May 8th, 1945), Defence Medal (awarded between September 3rd, 1939, to May 8th, 1945 for six months of service in Great Britain), War Medal (awarded if a soldier worked full time for 28 days in the armed forces and merchant marines from 1939 to 1945), and the Canadian Volunteer Service Medal with clasp (awarded to any soldier that volunteered in World War II for eighteen months). As his body was never recovered, Richard was mentioned in the Runneymede Memorial in Surrey, United Kingdom.

Legion elects new executive team ahead of summer season By KEITH ANDERSON Branch 95 President

News - The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 95 Smiths Falls had its elections at the May general meeting and the new executive took office as of June 1. The following are the members of the new team for 2014-2015. Carol Levere, past president; Keith Anderson, president; Glenn MacPhail first vice president; Wayne Foster second vice president; Malcolm McRae, third vice president; Claire Husson, treasurer; Jim Jenkins and Doug Husson, veterans service officers; Vi Smith/Jane Anderson, membership; Jean Lasenba, poppy chair. Other members of the executive team are Muriel Clement, Tammy Peckham, Helen Wilkinson, Dawn Dunlop, Len Johnston, Peter MacPherson, George Bourguignon, Jim Pevere, Pat Lafontaine, Jack Curran, Peter Jerome, Len Johnston, Enid Rabb, Ken Johnston and Josephine Campbell, president of the Ladies Auxiliary. Our general meetings stop for the months of July and August, however the executive hold monthly meetings and the Legion is still a very active place at all times. Our veterans service officer, Jim Jenkins, and our branch service officer, Doug Husson, arranged to bring local veterans and widows from the nursing homes to both the United Church and the Legion to enjoy Doors Open events on June 8. They are still busy meeting with veterans and widows of

veterans to ensure they are receiving all the benefits from Veterans Affairs that they are entitled to. They have a group of veterans that have also taken on the upkeep of our museum in the Canadian Room and nursing home and hospital visits. They will try to help all veterans whether they are Legion members or not. If you would like to meet with them or can offer your services to them please contact them at 613-284-1805. Doors Open was successful thanks to the hard work of organizer Doug Husson. Many thanks to him and the Legion members who came out to welcome visitors to our building. We were also privileged to have members of the armed forces bring a display and welcome the many interested visitors. It was appropriate to have the Legion as part of Doors Open this year as the theme was First World War due to the 100th anniversary. Our bursary chair, Ken Johnston, is busy checking the applications received from the local high schools before the end of the school year to see if we can help local students that meet the Legion qualifications for a bursary to help them continue their education at the college or university level in the coming year. Our colour party, led by our Sgt. At Arms Jack Curran, attends functions during the year through request. He is always looking for new members and would appreciate veterans joining the group to show pride in what the Legion is all about. They will be participating in the cancer walk and the decoration Sunday event at Hillcrest cemetery to

name a couple. The Monday night bid euchre, which is held in the Canadian room and duplicate bridge, which is held in the Lancaster room continue during the summer and both events are open to the public and start at 7 p.m. On Tuesday afternoon there is duplicate bridge lessons with games played in the afternoon starting at 1 p.m. Bingo is held each Thursday evening in the main Lancaster hall at 7 p.m. with a canteen available from 4:30 until 7 p.m. Our Jamboreeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s which are held the third and fifth Sunday of each month starting at 1 until 6 p.m. are also continuing over the summer. Dinner is served at 5 p.m. This event features volunteer musicians that provide excellent country music to dance the afternoon away and is open to the public. Who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like fish and chips? We will be serving fish and chips in our Canadian Room the last Friday of each month starting June 27 from 4 until 7 p.m. This is open to the public so please join us for a great way to finish off the week each month. The cost will depend on whether you like one or two pieces of fish. June 22 we will be celebrating strawberry season with a strawberry breakfast brunch from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. This event is open to the public and will feature fresh local strawberries as part of the menu. Our air conditioned, licensed, Wi-Fi available

halls are booked for many private events over the summer months such as weddings, stag and doe parties, birthday parties, meetings and funeral luncheons as required. If you require a hall please contact our office @ 613-283-2690 for availability. Christmas Party bookings are already being made, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be disappointed, call early. We are busy planning events that will start in September such as Legion Week. Our veterans luncheon will be held during Legion Week. We are also planning on having some special events, which will be advertised prior to the event. In September we will be hosting our Legion district veterans and poppy seminars that will bring approximately 80 members into our town for this event. We will also be starting work on our annual poppy campaign that will start in the early fall. We are still fundraising to install an elevator lift that would assist our aging veterans to visit all three floors of their building. We continually try to provide assistance to service clubs and charities within our community during the year. If your nonprofit organization is having an event let us know if we can assist or display your advertising on our information boards. For information on any of the programs we offer please do not hesitate to contact the main office between 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 613-283-2690. New members are always welcome. You do not have a military background to join the Legion. They served till death? Why not we? R0012465537_1219

The application allows anyone to search soldiers by regiment and narrow down their search to individual profiles, said computer science teacher Mason Black. The program permits a user to discover a soldier’s name, rank, regiment, hometown, how much schooling they obtained, where they worked before the war, when they were killed and Photo by LAURIE WEIR where they are buried.

Community - A new cell phone “app” created by students at Smiths Fall District Collegiate Institute (SFDCI) offers a window into the lives of Canadian soldiers who died on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. The Juno Beach Project app, created by Grades 11 and 12 computer science students, is a free app that works with Windows 8 cell phones. The application, featuring high-grade graphics, opens up on a poppy graphic through which a visitor can touch the screen and access maps of the battlefields and details on the hour-by-hour progression of Canadian regiments into Normandy. The app also offers details on the German positions, a listing of regiments that fought on D-Day, along with the detailed stories of approximately 371 Canadians who died on D-Day and the days shortly after. The application uses original research developed by history students at SFDCI as part of the Lest We Forget initiative. “I learned more history in computer science class than in my Grade 10 history course,” said William Watt, a Grade 12

Lowe memorial tournament a sold-out affair By LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com

Sports – The Gerry Lowe Memorial Golf Tournament tees off tomorrow (June 20) at the Lombard Glen Golf and Country Club and the Sens RINK will be one step closer to reality. The tournament is a sell-out but organizers are encouraging guests to come to the golf club and bid on some fabulous auction prizes and make a donation to the cause. Since his untimely death, June 25, 2010, Gerry Lowe has left a hole in the community – one that his family, friends and golf buddies are trying to fill. “He wouldn’t like all the publicity,” says Rob Garvin, who, along with Hugh Colton, organizes the annual golf tournament. Both men say Lowe has been a mentor of sorts to them – each losing their own fathers at young ages. “He was a great man…everyone who knew him, loved him,” says Colton. “He basically took me under his wing, like he did with so many others in the community.” Garvin adds: “He was larger than life and

was always doing something for the kids.” It was because of Lowe’s love of life and his community that his friends and family feel it’s fitting to develop an outdoor rink in his honour. In comes the Ottawa Senators to help this dream become a reality. “Gerry was a (Chicago) Blackhawks fan, but he was a staunch supporter of the Ottawa Senators.” The Sens Recreational Investments in Neighbourhoods for Kids (RINK) is helping to match some of the funds raised for this $250,000 project. “They liked what we were doing with the fundraising from this golf tournament and they have agreed to help match some of the funding,” says Garvin. The town won’t be responsible for any of the expenses of the rink, but staff will be helping to maintain it… like using the ice resurfacing machine to clean the ice surface. Other funding is coming through in-kind donations, without whose support, this may not be feasible, says Garvin.

“We’re also looking at inking some fiveyear sponsorships with local businesses,” says Garvin. “We want to be in the ground on this project by August and right now there is a big push,” adds Colton. Plans are also in the works to collaborate with Algonquin College with some of the landscaping, as the rink will be situated beside Elmsley Street, just behind the monument, with the use of the arena parking lot. This will be a facility with no charge to its users. “We see it as a good partnership with the town to help complement the use of the Memorial Centre, as we can see times when users of the outdoor rink may want to use a room in the arena for a birthday party,” or other get-togethers, says Garvin. To help, or be a part of the project, visit the Lombard Glen on Friday and make a donation. “It’s definitely going to be a Gerry Lowe kind of day,” says Colton. “And it’s already sold out, but people are welcome to come bid on some prizes or make a donation.”

Thurs June 26th and Thurs Aug 21 at Conlon Farm from 6:30 to 8pm

Batting cages now open at Good Vibrations By HOWAIDA SOROUR hsorour@perfprint.ca

Sports – An exciting new facility has opened in town. Good Vibrations has installed three batting cages on their property adjacent to the gym. “It’s ready now and it throws hardball, fastball and slow pitch,” said Brad Brewer, an avid ball player. Installing the facility came about as a response to the community according to Danielle Leach, co-owner of Good Vibrations. “We have a lot of ball players that come through the winter and spring until ball season is ready to start and in chatting with them I heard that they wished there was something around here where they could practice,” said Danielle. A little research into the feasibility of setting up batting cages revealed the depth of the need.

“There’s really nothing like this within a two-hour radius,” said Danielle’s husband and partner Mark. As it turned out, it was perfect timing because when the couple started to search for the equipment they discovered that the Ottawa Lynx equipment was sitting idle in storage and looking for a new home. For a modest investment the couple were able to purchase the Lynx batting equipment, which happens to be in really good shape and top of the line. “It’s the best on the market - Iron Mike - capable of throwing a ball at 85 miles an hour,” said Mark. Having said that, the speed of the throws is entirely adjustable for all levels and players as is the height and pitch of the throws. “The centre cage is all astro-turf with a mound and a plate and it’s a pitcher’s practice cage,” said Mark.

The pitcher’s practice cage comes complete with an adjustable screen to protect the pitcher while still allowing for both overhand or underhand throws, as well as a digital radar screen that records the speed of the pitch. “It’s great for teams to improve their skills, but it’s also great for individuals who want to practice,” said Danielle, “It’s also just fun for any age even if they’re not ball players and they’re open to the public, and supervised.” As Brewer points out having batting cages in town is a huge boon for the town’s ball players because it offers the opportunity to practice alone without having to depend on anyone else. Golf Canada “Smiths Falls has teams that went to Brooke Henderson is pictured with the Porter Cup after winning in NiHamilton for the provincials last year agara Falls N.Y. on Friday, June 13. and won, so this is important,” says Brewer, “because we want to see the younger players come up and take over from the older players.” Sports - Brooke Henderson rallied for 26th at the LPGA’s Kraft Nabisco back from a nine-stroke deficit firing a Championship and tied for 45th at the 9-under 62 on Friday afternoon, June LPGA Manulife Financial Classic. 13, to win the Porter Cup at Niagara She will play in the U.S. Women’s Falls Country Club in Lewiston, N.Y.

Historic theatrical walking tour opens June 25 in Perth Arts – Visitors and townfolk alike may be forgiven for thinking they have walked into a time warp starting June 25 as costumed characters from Perth’s past come to life five mornings a week this summer. Perth through the Ages, a historic, theatrical guided walking tour, is a youth training project organized by the Classic Theatre Festival and Matheson House Museum, running through Aug. 31, Wednesday to Sunday mornings at 11 a.m. This project features an original play, The Preacher and the Leading Lady, which was researched and developed by the troupe in tandem with director Laurel Smith and local historian Susan Code. It tells the story of the Reverend William Bell, an early Perth Presbyterian minister, and famed actress May Bell-Marks, both of whom mysteriously find themselves in 2014 Perth. As they journey through the town, they witness key events and characters that have formed part of the town’s storied 200 years while often sparring about their respective views on everything from the state of women’s attire to smoke-belching horse carts (or cars, as we know them today). Bell, played by local actor Kevin Kozo, and Bell-Marks, performed by Ottawa’s Jasmine Bowen (a veteran of that city’s Haunted Walk), are perfect foils whose comments on what they have seen historically and now will allow audiences to appreciate the importance of signature events in Perth history. With an equal mix of drama, history, and humour, the play’s cast also includes some additional up and coming talents that Perthites have likely seen on both high school and community stages, including Bobbie Cordick, Meaghan Brackenbury, Adam Reid and Madison Reid. The tour route will begin at Matheson House Museum (11 Gore Street East) at 11 a.m. sharp beginning June 25, and will follow down the streets of Perth to the Courier building (where viewers will watch the moment when women’s

Other scenes near the Crystal Palace will allow historic characters to remark upon the remarkable changes they have witnessed, and scenes both at the Legion and along Beckwith Street East will be touching reminders of the human cost of both world wars.

the last fatal duel in Canada was fought, makes an appearance. The tour finishes at St. James Anglican Church, site of many historic events and the new home for the Classic Theatre Festival. The Perth through the Ages project is the product of an intensive period of research facilitated by local historic animator Susan Code and collective creation and writing led by Laurel Smith, the Classic Theatre Festival’s artistic producer. Troupe members also had the privilege of interviewing residents of the Lanark Lodge long-term care home

to gain insights into the Perth of days past. “We have a terrific group of young people working with us on the project, and this is a chance for them to stretch their talents, learn new things, and share great stories with tourists and locals alike, a lot of whom marvel at the historic architecture of Perth but don’t always know the stories behind the gorgeous facades,” Smith says. “This is a great opportunity to not only share memorable stories, but also give everyone a strong sense of place and pride

in our community as it approaches its bicentennial.” Smith points to the strong partnership with Matheson House and Perth Tourism, and credits the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund, the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport’s Celebrate Ontario program, the Ontario Trillium Foundation, and Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization with significant support as well. The tour will wind up at St. James Anglican Church, whose Good Shepherd Hall is being transformed into a professional theatre space this summer as the festival celebrates its fifth anniversary with the Neil Simon comedy, Come Blow Your Horn (July 11 to Aug. 3) and the gripping mystery thriller, Dial M for Murder by Frederick Knott (Aug. 8 to 31). Visitors to the new space will note the historic overtones inside the building as well, which will features posters, costumes designs, and other artifacts from Canadian theatre history in the hallways and theatre lobby. This summer, the festival is also adding a Thursday matinee. With eight shows a week (Wednesday to Saturday at 8 p.m., with 2 p.m. matinees every Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday), the Festival offers audiences lots of flexibility in choosing their dates. Pre-show talks will occur at 1:30 p.m. preceding each matinee. Meanwhile tickets for the Perth through the Ages walking tour will be limited, so those wishing to attend are encouraged to book tickets in advance by calling Tickets Please at 613-4856434. Tickets are $12, $10 for festival ticketholders, and free for children aged 12 and under. Day-of tickets will be available at the Perth Tourism Visitor Centre (11 Gore Street East). The tour will be last about one hour and 15 minutes. Further information on the walking tour and the festival’s new season is available at www.classictheatre.ca or by calling 1-877-283-1283.

Car Counsellor offers tips to truck owner experiencing dash control failure Lifestyle – “Hello Brian, I have a 1998 Mazda B-4000 4x4 truck and I have a small issue with it that has stumped many a mechanic and auto-part store representative. The speedometer and odometer stop working after only a few kilometres but all other gauges in the instrument cluster continue to work. During winter they both work for a little longer, I assume because it takes the engine longer to warm up, and sometimes in the summer will not work at any time during the day. I have also noticed if it is extremely cold (-20 and lower) the instruments will work for a few kilometres, stop working, then if the truck is parked for some time and started, the instruments will work again but not as long as first thing in the morning. The speed sensor unit has been changed on the rear axle and this has not corrected or improved the situation and it’s still the same. I have spoken with Mazda and Ford reps and they cannot provide any insights to the exact cause. Finally, except for this issue the truck is in sound mechanical condition and has never had any mechanical or electrical faults. I was hoping you may have a light bulb moment and solve this minor issue for me.” Cheers, Troy This Mazda’s PCM (Power-train Control Module) receives vehicle speed information from the antilock brake system rear wheel speed sen-

sor. The raw signal from this sensor on the rear axle goes directly to the anti-lock brake module where the signal is corrected for tire diameter. Then the corrected signal is sent to the PCM, speed control, cluster, etc. If the sensor on the diff has been replaced with no change, the problem will be found in one of the following areas: 1) Signal harness from the diff sensor to the module. 2) Internal fault of the ABS or power-train control module. 3) Signal harness from the PCM to the cluster. 4) Internal fault of the cluster. 5) Poor grounds for any of the above. Based on the observation that more than the speedometer/odometer stops working in the cold, I suspect the problem is in the cluster or the wiring that feeds it. The cheapest way to try to fix this would be to obtain a used cluster from a salvage yard. The alternative is to take the

truck to a very experienced Mazda B4000 or Ford Ranger technician and be willing to pay for his or her time to check the wiring and modules. At labour rates of $100/hour or more, trying out a used cluster will very likely be much cheaper. “Hi Brian, I Googled parking lots for new unsold cars and was astonished by the millions of cars that have never been sold and are parked in mega lots to rot. Would these cars not be better off recycled? Maybe today’s new cars wouldn’t be so expensive if the manufacturers didn’t yearly make more cars than demand calls for. If everyone refused to buy a brand new car for one year I think maybe the manufacturers would get the hint. Your thoughts?” Debby Some of the information received on the Internet can be a bit of an exaggeration (hard to believe, I know) but as with many things on the web, sometimes there’s a bit of truth as

well. Prior to the bankruptcy and bailouts of two large Detroit-based automakers, it was a common practice for these companies to produce far more vehicles than their dealers were ordering. Then, at the end of a model year, deep discounts and incentives were applied to move these mountains of metal, often at very low profit margins. While I’m not entirely conversant with European or Asian production practices, I’m pretty safe in stating that everything produced for the North American market, does end up on the road eventually. After the North American bailouts, carmakers seem to have learned their lessons and are periodically shutting down assembly lines for short periods of time when inventories start to climb and get stagnant. But if you see them return to the end-of-model year deep discounts, you may be excused for believing they’re back to their old tricks. What the last recession proved is that if a major manufacturer doesn’t have some degree of flexibility built into their financial planning and production schedules, (especially when it comes to cutting back in low demand times) they are doomed to failure and I’m not a fan of bailing them out again. As for putting off purchasing a vehicle for a year, many consumers don’t have much choice, but when you consider how many of our tax dollars went into the bailouts, per-

haps we might be owed a new car from certain makers. Upcoming events On Saturday, June 21 the Ottawa Jaguar Club presents EUROCARS 2014 and Jaguar Show ‘n’ Shine at the Rockcliffe Flying Club.

Twitter and 5-1-1 added to AMBER Alert messages News – When an AMBER Alert is issued, timing is critical, and police need to get information out fast. The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is adding Twitter and the MTO 5-1-1 roads infoservice as new tools to get the details about a child abduction occurrence out

as quickly as possible to as wide an audience as possible. With the use of Twitter, an AMBER Alert will travel among thousands of cell phones and electronic devices within seconds. And with the capability for Twitter subscribers to not only receive

but to ‘retweet’ information, police know that an AMBER Alert announcement can be multiplied to thousands of people fast. Twitter will enhance the Ontario AMBER Alert Program by enabling public notifications to a growing

network of partner-agencies who spread the word whenever there is a report of an abducted child anywhere in Ontario who may be in danger. Earlier this year, the Ministry of Transportation announced they would also partner with the Program by making

it easier for the public to be informed quickly whenever an AMBER Alert is in effect. Now when motorists see an AMBER Alert on overhead highway signs, they can dial 5-1-1 for information regarding the alert in effect to obtain information on suspect vehicles.

SMITHS FALLS

RELAY FOR LIFE 2014 Relay for Life hits $50,000 mark in Smiths Falls By LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com

News – The numbers are down from last year, but that didn’t dampen the spirits of Amanda Gifford, fundraising coordinator for the Canadian Cancer Society, Lanark, Leeds and Grenville. “It was a fantastic night in Smiths Falls,” Gifford said Monday. “We got lucky in Smiths Falls because the rain held off, but our Brockville event was hit by a thunderstorm.” Despite the threat of rain in Smiths Falls, there were 22 teams who took part in the 12-hour, overnight Relay for Life, raising $50,020 this year. Thirtynine survivors were included in the initial lap around the track. There were also 522 luminaries lit in honour or in memory of loved ones, and 256 participants took turns walking for the 12hour period. Cancer Kicking Cousins was the top fundraising team this year, topping $8,427. They had a big boost from Precision Hair Design, who held a Streak for the Cure event. Brian Paquette, (Coach Brian from Zendragon), got the crowd started during an emotional opening ceremonies. He was there to lead the warm-up of participants before the relay, but he also inspired those present with his own reasons for taking part. “Last year, we were here for Zoe,” he said, of his young friend – a child, whose life ended from cancer just weeks after last year’s relay. Paquette then shared a story about a little boy who wanted to help save the starfish that were washed ashore after the tide dragged them in… much to the chagrin of the old man who told him he couldn’t make a difference to the thousand of starfish that had washed up on the shore. “The little boy picked up just one starfish and threw it back in the ocean and said to the old man, ‘I made a difference to that one.’” Paquette’s message was clear – we can’t always make big miracles happen, but we can make a thousand little miracles happen every day – each and every one of us, he said. “Make your day count.” Comparison Last year, 25 teams raised $71,000 in Smiths Falls; Almonte’s totals were down $25,000 this year, but still over $100,000. Brockville’s totals topped the region with $102,229. Gifford noted that they had fewer, but larger teams, as many joined together this year. Brockville reported having 11 less teams this year, with 28 participating. Just three years ago, the event was held at the Lombardy fairgrounds, as a milestone was hit in 2011 – the $3 million mark after 12 years running. This was attained after some $250,000 was raised by 65 teams in Lombardy alone. When asked if they’d move the relay back to Lombardy from Smiths Falls, Gifford was hesitant at first. “No,” she said. “There were a number of issues we had to tackle at Lom-

bardy that we don’t have here in Smiths Falls at the high school.” Fire is just one of those issues. “At the high school, we can’t have open burning – camp fires or barbecues – because it’s school policy. But after speaking about this with the team captains, they were fine with that. There were a number of people who didn’t like the blowing smoke from the open air burning.” Noise from generators was another concern. Camper trailers, which used the generators for power, were allowed in Lombardy, but not at the high school. The generators created another problem for participants, which was alleviated by the move. But even so, Gifford says there are a number of ways people can donate to the Canadian Cancer Society, and money is still coming in from their online

sponsorship page, which is open until the end of July. “We have so many ways to donate,” she says. “We have a number of fundraisers, and people are still donating to the cause. It’s just spread out more over the course of the year.” A new event will be held this year in Kemptville at Riverside Park with a 2km and 5km fun run. The event, to be held Sept. 27, is called Neon Nights and money raised from this fundraiser will go to childhood cancer. Another newer event earlier this year was the Rave-a-lution, a dance/exercise party held at the Perth Civitan Club. Gifford hopes to find some volunteers to help her with the second installment of this initiative. For more information on the Canadian Cancer Society, please visit their website: www.cancer.ca.

Take action against cancer now! Changing public policy is one of the most effective tools for preventing cancer and helping those living with and beyond cancer. The best way to change public policy is for Canadians to speak up and make our collective voices heard. Funding of take home cancer drugs It is estimated that 2 out of 5 Canadians are expected to develop cancer in their lifetime. Cancer is stressful enough without adding the extra burden of financial stress and anxiety related to drug access. Unfortunately, the current system in Ontario often does create this additional stress, and at times delays or prevents patients from accessing cancer medications. The Canadian Cancer Society recommends that Ontario develop a provincial program that provides full coverage for eligible cancer drugs taken at home. Ontario has the opportunity to study and review the programs in the other provinces and develop a program that is right for Ontario. It is essential that stakeholders, including the Society, Cancer Care Ontario, patients, and the insurance and pharmaceutical industries, be part of the discussion and involved in the development of the program. Flavoured tobacco In order to remain profitable, the tobacco industry must find new smokers to replace those who die from tobacco related disease or quit. Flavoured tobacco products are designed to appeal to youth and are available in candy and fruit flavours and are often wrapped in shiny

youth-friendly packaging. The Canadian Cancer Society is asking the government to #endtheflavour and ban all flavoured tobacco products, including flavoured smokeless tobacco products. Attempts have been made to ban flavoured tobacco but they have not been enough. In 2010, both the Government of Ontario and the Government of Canada banned the sale of candy-flavoured cigarillos. This law didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go far enough because it only banned one product: cigarillos. The law is ineffective because it has a loophole

that defines a cigarillo as 1.4 grams or less. This opened the door for the same product, just larger, to be made.

Dragon sequel offers wonderful adventure Planked brie with blueberry chutney perfect as appetizer or dessert

MOVIE: How to Train Your Dragon 2 STARRING Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler, America Ferrera, Cate Blanchett, Craig Ferguson, Kit Harington and Djimon Hounsou DIRECTOR: Dean DeBlos RATING: PG Arts – How to Train Your Dragon 2 will break your heart, and then set your spirit soaring. It’s an emotional rollercoaster, but what an incredible ride. It’s been five years since Hiccup (Jay Baruchel) and Toothless made peace between the people of Berk and the dragons. Life on Berk has become a lot better, but Hiccup is still searching for something. He’s still not sure who he is, and his father, Chief Stoic (Gerard Butler), isn’t helping with talk of Hiccup becoming chief. There’s a whole world to explore and mysteries to discover. New islands and new dragons that Hiccup wants to find. One of these explorations leads Hiccup to someone he never dreamed of meeting: his mother Valka (Cate Blanchett). Valka wasn’t eaten by a dragon, she was taken by a dragon. She’s spent the last 20 years living with dragons and learning all about them. She’s also been rescuing dragons from Drago Bloodfist

My Take MARK HASKINS

(Djimon Hounsou). Drago is a bloodthirsty warrior who’s been building a dragon army to conquer the world. The only ones in Drago’s way are Hiccup, Valka, Stoic and all the rest of Berk’s dragon riders. Drago is unlike any foe Hiccup and Toothless have faced. Drago’s army is unlike anything the world has ever seen. This is their greatest test. When an animated film is this rich, this lush, this gorgeous you lose yourself in it. It’s at the point where you forget you’re watching an animated film. This is the experience of How To Train Your Dragon 2. This world, these characters and these dragons become living things right there on the screen, and even though they’re animated they become real. This isn’t a story but an adventure. Before the credits are done you’re flying across the ocean and riding the backs of dragons. This film pulls you in

and connects with you in a way that all films hope to do, but few actually do. The entire cast returns for this sequel, and they’ re perfect. Gerard Butler and Craig Fergusson are two of my favourite Vikings. America Ferrera gives Astrid her fire and fight, and Jay Baruchel not only gives Hiccup his voice he gives him his soul. Along with the returning cast members are a few new voices. I can’t think of anyone better to be the voice of Hiccup’s fierce dragon loving mother than Cate Blanchett. Kit Harington is a nice addition to the cast as dragon wrangler Eret, and Djimon Hounsou is everything you could hope for in a villain who breaks dragons to his will. How to Train Your Dragon 2 is one of those rare films that isn’t so much a movie as it is an experience. It’s definitely not for the faint of heart. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of the EMC.

Catholic school board using technology for improved communication between schools News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The following are highlights from the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSBEO) meeting held June 3 at the board office in Kemptville. CDSBEO schools value and appreciate the power of communication. Technology has vastly transformed and improved communication through better accessibility, flexibility and the ability to more easily collaborate. Schools are making the most of technology when communicating with students, parents and our Catholic school communities. Tom Jordan, superintendent of school effectiveness, presented information to the board regarding some of the ways which technology is being leveraged by schools to improve and enhance communication. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Synrevoice program, which allows schools to send out a recorded message via telephone to parents, is used extensively throughout the board. It is an excellent tool for sharing general information, reminders, and providing updates to parents regarding changes to school routines,â&#x20AC;? explained Jordan. Schools websites are tools used extensively by board schools, as well as teacher sites, which are used to provide updates, information, and homework information to students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Close to 45 per cent of our schools are also utilizing Facebook and Twitter to communicate with students and parents. The tools also help to share good news stories and photos,â&#x20AC;? added Jordan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In addition, approximately 42 per cent of our Catholic school councils are utilizing some form of electronic communication with their parent communities.â&#x20AC;? Technological initiatives through-

out the board are linked to the CDSBEO strategic plan, which outlines that the board is committed to seek out and utilize technologies, including social media, to ensure effective and efficient communication practices. J.L. Jordan Catholic School â&#x20AC;&#x153;Christ is Our Compassâ&#x20AC;? program For any individual, business, organization, school, or society to be able to succeed at consistently moving in the direction of their vision, each individual must be able to identify and embrace a core set of values and remain true to these values through the development of habits of mind, and habits of soul. Since 2008, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our Compass is Christâ&#x20AC;? program has helped individuals set and achieve their vision for themselves, and for their school. J.L. Jordan Catholic School principal, Paul Mantha, developed the vision and established the program six years ago, while vice-principal at Bishop Macdonell Catholic School. Based on his own personal mission statement developed nearly 20 years ago, Mantha created the program from a need for direction and focus. It provides students, staff, and families with four common principles to aspire to. These principles become their mission, their common language and practice, as they move toward a common goal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The program was inspired by my own beliefs around the need for a personal mission statement, and also from Stephan Coveyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ideas around core values, and Ron Morrishâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ideas around the importance of taking the time to teach the little things,â&#x20AC;? explained Mantha in his presentation to the board.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first year it was put in place at Bishop Macdonell, the program was embraced by staff and within the first year of implementation we saw a reduction of over 50 per cent in behavioural incidents and suspensions. All staff were focusing on teaching from a proactive stance â&#x20AC;&#x201C; we were not relying on intervention and consequence alone, we invested heavily in prevention,â&#x20AC;? he added. Focused on a set of core values and collective visioning, the program is discussed and reviewed with staff, students, and the community at the beginning of each school year. It is then reviewed and reinforced with students several times throughout the year. Core values set out in the program establish direction and help maintain a clear focus. The vision, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Guided by the Holy Spirit, we create a community of peace where all learners think clearly, act wisely, feel deeply, and live responsibly,â&#x20AC;? has been incorporated the programs core values on a poster. This summary is displayed prominently in all public areas and classrooms, to help with daily reflection on the program principles. The four cardinal points, which are listed on the poster with supporting information, include: Focus on Excellence, Do the Right Thing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Even When No One is Looking, Treat People with Respect, and Leave a Legacy. The points of focus are based on Christâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teachings, and are the core values of the compass program. The school has also adopted a theme song called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes I Canâ&#x20AC;? to help encourage students with following the moral compass. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In addition, Compass Champions Awards are given every two weeks by

teachers at a school assembly, and students listen intently as to why each student received the award,â&#x20AC;? added Mantha. Aboriginal role models in the classroom The CDSBEO continues to strive to meet the goals set forth in the Ontario First Nation, MĂŠtis, and Inuit Education Policy Framework. In doing so, there has been an intentional focus on collecting and analyzing data connected with our self-identified students and creating initiatives which respond to what the data is indicating. Curriculum consultant and Aboriginal education lead, Jennifer Deschamps, presented information on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aboriginal Role Models in the Classroomâ&#x20AC;? initiative, which has been piloted in four schools where there are clusters of selfidentified students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Through this initiative, opportunities are created for students to interact in cultural ways with Aboriginal role models and at the same time help build awareness for all students and educatorsâ&#x20AC;? explained Deschamps. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is also increasing the involvement of First Nation, MĂŠtis and Inuit community partners with our Catholic schools.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We looked at the research, specifically in Ontario, which focused on the importance of integrating our self-identified students through Aboriginal teachings, as well as the importance of building partnerships with the Aboriginal community, and between students and the Aboriginal community,â&#x20AC;? she added. Aboriginal community members, who were selected to become the role models for the various schools, and grade levels,

were connected directly with the geographical region of each school. As the Aboriginal education lead, Deschamps partnered with school educator teams and Aboriginal community partners to make collaborative decisions about how the Aboriginal role model experiences would unfold in each school. In all schools involved, Aboriginal role models made multiple visits to their assigned school and facilitated cultural experiences in both formal and informal settings, allowing opportunities for students to learn, to interact, and to build relationships and pride. Annual report on provision of special education services The Special Education Plan for June 2014, as outlined in the Standards for School Boardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Special Education Plans, has been compiled by consulting with necessary stakeholders and involving key participants in the process. The report includes recommendations to be implemented, including the staff to be allocated for schools, professional development, as well as plans for communication and involvement of parents. Superintendent of school effectiveness, Dr. Donaleen Hawes, brought forth the annual report on the provision of special education programs and services to the board. The report was presented to the special education advisory committee, on Wednesday, May 28, and the committee unanimously supported the recommendations included. The report and accompanying recommendations were also approved by the board for submission to the Ministry of Education. Submitted by the CDSBEO. R0012757045
