Landlord struggles to remove squatter at Park Ave. Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
News – Ongoing efforts by a local property owner to remove a non-paying man from her property has shined a light on the cracks in the mental health care system and the inability of property owners in Ontario to protect themselves. According to Dave Pringle, the
property manager, he received a call from Lanark County Mental Health (LCMH) on Friday, June 27, asking for emergency housing support for one of their clients over the weekend. By Monday, June 30, the man refused to leave the Park Avenue premises and the mental health organization “washed their hands”
of the placement, Pringle said. In these last six weeks no rent has been paid nor would it be accepted, as Pringle states: “Our position is that he’s trespassing.” Pringle, and Elaine Rempel, coowner of CRE Investments which owns the property, fear for the five tenants who still live in the rooming house.
Pringle said the man has allegedly turned on the stove and left the apartment, piled newspapers on the stove and is crowding the common areas of the property with personal items. He is also alleged to have blocked other tenants in their room by piling his material

Sports – Smiths Falls’ own Gerry Lowe Memorial Sens RINK (Recreation Investment in Neighbourhoods for Kids) is set to become a reality with a groundbreaking ceremony slated for Wednesday, Aug. 20. If the final bylaw is passed at council on Monday, Aug. 18, then construction can begin as early as Thursday, Aug. 21. “As soon as we work out some of the details… we could be back by Monday, which would meet the deadline,” said the town’s new chief administrative officer, Malcolm Morris, during town council’s committee-of-the-whole meeting on Monday, Aug. 11. While Morris said that the situation was being driven by an “aggressive timetable,” he said it was still “doable” and he commended the proposal as “a tremendously generous offer being presented to council.” The Aug. 20 groundbreaking ceremony is scheduled to take place from 4:30 to 7 p.m. and, according to the Ottawa Senators Foundation, could likely be the last stop on the Senators’ Summer Tour, after Kingston earlier that morning. There may even be some Sens players in town, but that hasn’t been confirmed at this point. The plan for this outdoor arena was first brought up on Jan. 27 of this year at council, of the joint proposal between the Gerry Lowe Memorial Foundation and the Senators Foundation. The site will boast two regulation size hockey nets and four basketball nets for recreational use during the warmer months. The surface can also be used for lacrosse and ball hockey. It will be free of charge.

West Ottawa Ladies’ Chorus seeking more members to join group Community – The following was written by Jacqueline Sanders – resident of Carleton Place and one of the founding singers of the West Ottawa Ladies’ Chorus. Three years ago, in the spring of 2011, I received a call from my sister telling me she had joined a choir in Stitttsville and did I want to attend a practice. Just to check it out. She knew I had been “checking out” choirs for several years, but had not found a good fit. I was immediately swept up by the enthusiasm of Robert Dueck, the director, by the atmosphere created by the music he chose, and by the fun all the ladies were having. This was a good fit, and before I really knew it, I was a member of the West Ottawa Ladies’ Chorus. We perform two full concerts each year, one at Christmas, and one in the spring. For me, one of the best things about the choir is our rehearsal spaces, two seniors’ residences in Kanata and that each term we perform several singouts at other seniors’ residences. So many seniors have choir experience, or have considerable musical knowledge, and they love it when we sing for them. We have performed twice at The Waterside, and this past spring, we sang a
practice. Thank goodness for Google! It’s part of what makes me look forward to each practice, Wednesday and Sunday afternoons. Singers are asked to attend one of the two weekly rehearsals with many singers wanting to participate at both. We sing secular and sacred music ranging from contemporary madrigals to Gershwin, Canadian and European folk songs, and classic nostalgia hits to lighter novelty numbers. The majority of songs in our growing repertoire are lovely story/poem lyrics set to a contemporary style of music and
arranged for a traditional three or fourpart ladies choir. In addition to providing entertainment as a community choir, we also learn to recognize each other’s skills and aptitudes as members of the chorus, have fun, and laugh a lot. If you are interested in joining our choir, contact Robert Dueck at LadiesChorus@Bell.net. Listen to chorus perform a variety of songs by searching the West Ottawa Ladies’ Chorus YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQxjr0Td5BL5eNxTNVr9Fpw. R0012841076_0814
Enjoy the Ride.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Number of ‘move over’ law charges highest since 2010: OPP DEAR EDITOR: After ten years of education efforts, which includes more than 11,000 charges on record since the law came into effect, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is dismayed to see a slow but steady increase in the number of “Move Over” charges it has laid against drivers since 2010. The OPP will be looking to Ontario drivers to help them reinforce the importance of Ontario’s Move Over law by setting a good example and observing this important law this summer. In Ontario, Section 159 (2)(3) of the Highway Traffic Act (HTA) requires drivers to slow down and proceed with caution when passing an emergency vehicle parked on the side of the highway with its lights activated. If the highway has more than one lane, the law requires the driver
to move over and leave one lane between their vehicle and the parked emergency vehicle if it can be done safely. Failure to do so can result in a fine of $400 to $2,000 plus three demerit points. There were 1,502 Section 159 (2)(3) charges last year (2013) and the number has increased steadily since 2010 when the OPP issued 1,067 such charges against Ontario drivers. The increase suggests that many drivers may be unaware of this important law aimed at keeping police and other emergency responders safe on the roadside. Since 1989, five OPP officers have been killed as a result of being struck while doing their job on the roadside and many more have been injured. Ontario Provincial Police
COMMENTARY Rich plowing history Editorial – The fields have been primed and a sure sign that summer’s end is approaching are the annual plowing matches. Locally, the Lanark County Plowmen’s Association will hold the annual Lanark County Plowing Match at the farm of Jim Tim, west of Almonte this Friday and Saturday (Aug. 15 and 16). Following up on that is the Ottawa-Carleton Plowing Match Aug. 22 to 23 in the Munster area; and the Grenville County Plowing Match will dig up some fields Sept. 27. This event will be hosted by Maitland Meadows Farms Ltd. near Merrickville. The International Plowing Match will be held in Simcoe County Sept. 16 to 20. These matches celebrate the rich agricultural history Lanark, Leeds and Grenville has and throughout Ontario they have been held for more than a century. Originally designed to provide farmers with an opportunity to show their prowess with a walking plow or horse-draw plow, advancements in technology over the years have seen the addition of tractors and larger implements. Those traditional classes are still practiced and featured at today’s plowing matches and are quite a sight to see. In addition to plowing, many of the matches feature special exhibits, musical entertainment and a chance to see municipal leaders climb atop a tractor and try to plow a straight furrow. It is more challenging than it looks. A plowing match is a great opportunity to get a better understanding and appreciation of the true art of farming. So often we forget the work that goes into the profession and it shouldn’t be overlooked.

touch the dynamite. And then one day, a hot summer afternoon it was, Emerson took it upon himself to test his ability as a blaster. Unknown to Father of course, or Mother for that matter, Emerson decided to try his luck at blasting one of the big stones sitting against the outhouse, unknown to anyone, of course.

Our feet barely hit the floor as we tore outside to see what had happened. Well, there was Emerson, smart enough to be well away from the scene of the crime, with his face covered with ash, and two dead hens beside him. They had been hit head-on. What was left of the outhouse, lay on its side, with the two holes pointing westward, and the big stone beside it smashed to smithereens.

had long since said she was going to have Old Herman, an authority on outhouses, build a new one as soon as she could afford the new lumber. Until that happened, the two holes alone would be uprighted, and would have to do as an outhouse. Fortunately, they were well hidden in a cluster of cedar trees. Father was harder to deal with. Apart from the danger, a point he barely touched on, he lamented on the loss of the two sticks of dynamite that had been wasted on a building that had served the Haneman family for three generations.

ronto region. But I didn’t give it much thought! More than two hours later we were cruising along and all was good. Then the pilot came on the public address system with an ominous message. “There are severe thunderstorms around Toronto Pearson and we may have to divert to our alternate airport, North Bay (Ontario).” Heather and I looked at each other. We were both thinking the same thing. “Oh no, not a flight delay. Not with the baby!” We crossed our fingers but only minutes later the pilot said Pearson was closed due to the severe weather and we would be changing course and flying to North Bay. “We will refuel and hope to be on our way to Toronto as quickly as possible. I’m sorry for the inconvenience.” Who says babies are too little to know what is happening? Because just after the captain made his announcement Lily and the other youngsters on the plane (there were several) all started crying in unison. It was uncanny! “Oh, oh,” I thought to myself. “Now we’re in trouble!” Those with flight connections in Toronto, including our seatmate, were extremely displeased of course. “At least this plane is eventually going on to Ottawa. We’ll be OK,” I told my daughter reassuringly. So, on we flew to North Bay. As we came in for the landing Lake Nipissing glistened in the afternoon sunlight. It was totally clear there. To make a long story shorter we were in the small, northern city for 90 minutes or so. Another large aircraft was also di-

rather in the auxiliary power unit which keeps large planes partly functional when they are on the ground. The fire trucks came but it was relatively minor and, finally, the other plane pushed back and we got our gate. This time we were advised to leave the aircraft, take a break and re-board when the Ottawa portion of the flight was called. That turned out to be a good move. We were able to use the facilities, have a cold drink and stretch. Lily was incredibly good which really helped. It was 9:45 p.m. (we were originally due in Ottawa at 7:30) before we took off for the 50-minute flight to the nation’s capital. This time all went well but we were more than three hours late arriving. As we were about to leave the plane we heard “Happy Birthday” playing over the PA. There was a chorus of singing and clapping. On the way out I asked if it was a crew member’s birthday. As we suspected, it was. The chief steward grinned and pointed to a flight attendant who had assisted us during our long and trying day. “It’s your birthday,” I said. “It’s mine, too!” Yes, it was my birthday and I had been on a plane for eight hours plus. The young lady in question high-fived and hugged me. “Happy Birthday,” she beamed. As I walked along the jetway into the airport terminal, with my daughter and my beautiful little granddaughter at my side, I thought that despite the trials and tribulations this had been a very special birthday indeed. At that moment just being with them was all that mattered. If you have a comment or question for Jeff Maguire he can be reached by email at: jeffrey.maguire@rogers.com.

verted to North Bay and that meant refueling took longer than anticipated. The small airport isn’t used to handling heavy jets. One break though! The airport did not have a portable stairway high enough to reach our plane. Otherwise we would have had to deplane. Unloading and reloading a full passenger jet is a lengthy process. Kind people Lily was tired, hot and bored. The air conditioning was off while we were on the ground and it was stifling inside the plane. But when she did cry, which wasn’t often, our predicament sparked sympathy and not annoyance among our fellow passengers and the airline crew. We had lots of offers of help from very kind people! Airborne for Toronto again we experienced yet another delay in landing because so many flights, which had also been diverted due to the airport shutdown, were now converging on Pearson. The worst was yet to come! When we landed, 30 minutes later than the pilot first predicted, we were forced to wait on the tarmac for nearly another hour because there was no gate available. By this time everyone on the plane was thoroughly fed up. We were already over three hours late and some passengers’ connections were in jeopardy. The plane was also stinking hot. We were tired, uncomfortable and grumpy. I felt so sorry for Heather as we struggled to keep her little girl happy. It was rapidly becoming a losing battle. Lily was just as hot and tired as we were. To further complicate matters the plane ahead of us experienced a small fire. It was not in the aircraft itself but

some of the myriad of clothing and materials necessary to support a baby for a month. I had an uneventful flight to Saskatchewan and spent three days there. The Friday before the Civic Holiday we headed for Regina International Airport. We flew Canada’s second airline on this occasion and no complaints there. They were very good to us. Hauling Heather’s checked bag into the airport building was the first hurdle. With apologies to those whose name I am taking in vain, I quickly dubbed the suitcase “Big Bertha.” It is massive, it was packed to overflowing and it was very heavy. We also had to check the base for Lily’s car seat. The seat itself and the baby’s stroller went onto the aircraft with us and were stored by the crew. Juggling act If you have ever gone through airport security with a baby and all of their associated paraphernalia you won’t soon forget it. Heather and I could have used four hands each to juggle Lily’s stroller, formula bottles (all liquids are carefully screened these days) and the remainder of her extensive carry-on kit. Despite the tight quarters I was looking forward to sharing my granddaughter’s first flight. We never flew when our children were young so this was a first for me too. The aircraft was scheduled to fly from Regina to Toronto’s Pearson Airport, the largest in the country. I was late booking and missed the one, daily direct flight to Ottawa. We took the next best option. The plane was scheduled to land in Toronto to discharge and pick-up passengers. We would not have to get off before the same flight continued on to Ottawa. We were flying on a Boeing 737 which has a seat configuration featuring three seats on each side of a centre aisle. We settled in for the three-hour first leg to Toronto. Lily was good and partway through Heather said “once we get to Toronto I’m not worried. It’s such a short flight to Ottawa from there.” I watched the TV screen at times, mainly tuning in the daily news and sports. I noticed when the Calgary CTV affiliate showed the national weather that thunderstorms were predicted for the To-

Lifestyle – Anyone who has experience traveling by air will have their own “horror story” (or stories) to relate. The more you fly the more likely you are to have some negative experiences related to delays, diversions, tight seating, overbooking, lost flight data, annoying passengers and a host of other things. It goes with the territory! I know some of you will smirk and say “that’s nothing” when you read the story I am about to relate. But anyone who has flown with a young child in tow will relate to this. In fact I’m sure most seasoned fliers will shake their heads knowingly. Because when it comes to flying, sometimes getting there can be half the battle. In March our daughter Heather and her partner Indy were blessed with a new arrival. Her name is Lily and she is the first grandchild for my wife Kathleen and I. The entire family is delighted including my parents who now have a third great-grandchild. Lily will be five-months-old next week and right now we are in the midst of a month-long visit with the baby, her mom and dad. Not just us of course. They are staying here but also in Montreal with Indy’s family and with our son Craig in Ottawa. Not surprisingly everybody wants a piece of the action. Lily is a little doll – not that we are prejudiced or anything! Indy is an engineer working for an Ottawa-based company in Saskatchewan. So they are living in Regina which is where our granddaughter was born. Until this visit the only people from our side of the family to meet Lily were Kathy and I (we traveled to Regina the week after she was born) and Craig who spent a week in the Saskatchewan capital in June. Every summer my mother’s side holds a family get-together on Civic Holiday weekend. Although her daddy had to stay behind for several days in order to complete a work project, Lily and her mom wanted to attend the reunion. But Heather needed some assistance to travel. Therefore I volunteered to fly to Regina, stay for a couple of days and then accompany them on the return flight to Ottawa. I traveled light, leaving extra room in my checked bag and my carry-on for

With 84 vendors this year, the largest to date, the weekend provided sunny and warm temperatures to entice visitors to the area.

Kids create ‘little world in a shoe box’ at Perth Library summer workshop Community – Did you know that monsters live in condos? They do in the summer programs at the Perth and District Union Public Library – in the world of dioramas that is. Participants were busy at work getting lost in their own little worlds of their own creation on Wednesday, July 23 and, like more modern theatrical productions, they needed to break down the fourth wall – in order that their hands fit in. Pipe cleaners, feathers, clay and crayons were all utilized for scenes of peace and dog-walking for the hour-long event last week. Left, Grace Noonan looks warily at our photographer, not wanting to do her ‘big reveal’ too soon. Below left, tutor Eli Hansen uses hit teeth to straighten a pipe cleaner before trying to work it through the side of a shoebox. Below, Maddox Dillabough flattens out a portion of blue clay for his diorama. Laurie Weir/METROLAND
Imagine.. the best of both worlds!

Special review: Dial M for Murder a hard act to follow Arts – Many audience members who attend Dial M for Murder (presented as part of Perth’s Classic Theatre Festival’s Fifth Anniversary Summer Season) will have previously seen the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock movie of the same name. Although the screenplay was excessively wordy and the plot extremely convoluted, Hitchcock resisted the urge to ‘open the film up’, and mostly confined the action to one set, he still managed to produce a classic. So, even though this slightly dated movie was stage bound, the Classic Theatre’s presentation embraced the play’s theatrical origins, and the professionalism of the actors elevated the results into a gripping, enthralling presentation. Not so much a whodunit, but more of a will-he-get-away-with-it, the action starts in a 1952 London apartment where Margot Wendice (Jennifer Valance) is reminiscing with former boyfriend Max Halliday (Scott Clarkson) about their affair. Even though it is obvious that they still harbour strong feelings for each other, they decide, for the sake of Margot’s marriage, not to reignite the flames. Enter Margot’s husband, Tony Wendice (Greg Campbell), whom the former lovers mistakenly believe is unaware of the affair. Tony is a suavelycharming rogue, who married for money, and is now so enraged by his wife’s affair that he is plotting to have
her murdered, which would enable him to inherit her fortune. Tony blackmails a former classmate, the con-artist Captain Lesgate (menacingly played by Richard Gelinas) into agreeing to murder his wife, while he attends a nearby club the next evening with Max, to furnish himself with an alibi. The plot goes terribly wrong, resulting in the death of Captain Lesgate, causing Tony to improvise desperately, in order to link Margot with the Captain. Walking a tricky tightrope, he must outwardly appear to support his wife, yet manipulate events in such a manner that Margot is charged with murder. Greg Campbell plays the two-faced cad to perfection, and even elicits our sympathy on occasion. Like Erich Von Stroheim from the 1920s through the 1940s, he is ‘The Man we Love to Hate’, and even somewhat guiltily admire, due to the sheer breathtaking audacity of his undertaking. Because of the unrelenting intervention of Inspector Hubbard (Clyde Whitham), and the strategic placement of a number of latch-keys, the plot is finally resolved satisfactorily. As the former lover, Scott Clarkson as Max is effectively besotted by Margot, and bewildered by events. Playing an early-1950s’ crime-writer in the then much-derided medium of television, he presents Tony with an unintentionally humourous series of possible scenarios

The relationship between Margot Wendice (Jennifer Valance) and Max Halliday (Scott Clarkson, in tux), right, provides one of the keys to solving the crime in the Classic Theatre Festival production of Dial M for Murder, on until Aug. 31 at 54 Beckwith Street East in Perth. which, though implausible, come close to replicating the true nature of events. Jennifer Vallance portrays Margot as a strong, yet trusting, woman
caught up bizarre plot, by today’s calms her
in a bewildering and who amazingly (judging sensibilities) continually nerves by smoking a
series of cigarettes. Great care was taken by David Magladry (set and lighting designer) to give the single set an uncluttered, authentic appearance.The period lighting, subdued or heightened as needed, added greatly to the many different moods of the play; the 1950’s furnishings brought to life home-decorating periodicals of that era. Congratulations are due also to Renate Seiler (costume designer) for her evocations of fashions, which were quite formal, compared to today’s lax standards. The play’s director (and founding artistic producer of the festival), Laurel Smith, noted during pre-performance introductions that the festival’s mandate included highlighting popular plays from the 1920s through the 1970s-thus assuring, no doubt, the presentation of a series of interesting and challenging works which would be welcomed by discerning audiences. If Dial M for Murder can be viewed as being truly representative of this endeavour, then Smith has succeeded admirably. Desmond Peter Devoy is a London, Ont.-based writer and photographer who was visiting the Perth area this week. His writings have appeared in Irish Connections Canada and the Toronto Irish News. His photographs have also been published in the EMC and Horizons magazine. This submission was a special submission.

Lifestyle – Sometimes the cats we write about for this column get adopted before publication. If you plan to come to LAWS for a specific cat you read about in the paper, please contact the shelter to find out whether he/she is still at the shelter. LAWS is currently accepting donations of gently used treasures for the next garage sale fundraiser at the shelter on Aug. 23. Please contact Wendy at 613-283-9308 or email shelter@lanarkanimals.ca for more details. For more information about our adoptable animals or events visit www.lanarkanimals.ca or visit us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/lanarkanimals.ca.
Hello everybody, remember me? I was in the paper before way back in March. Nobody came to see me yet and I wonder why. I am a very cool black and white cat with stunning long white whiskers, I purr on command and get along well with my cat buddies. I am still young, just over three years, and still full of energy. I love to eat and it’s starting to show. The ladies at LAWS tell me, once I am in a loving home, I can’t pig out all day anymore. I think that’s a good thing, I want to remain that handsome boy you’ve been looking Pepper for. Please make an effort Pepper was a surrender as the life- to meet me, I am a real gem style of the previous owner changed and unfortunately she could not care for Pepper anymore. Pepper is a lovely female tabby cat of about 1.5-years-old who keeps to herself. She is around other cats and doesn’t mind, but she does not actively seek a buddy to play or sleep with. She’s quiet and content where she is at the moment, but we all know, she’d be better of in a loving home.

This week’s featured pets Diablo He’s playful and fast, about four months young, loves to play soccer with his buddies, has a shiny tuxedo coat. Diablo loves treats and loves attention. Diablo is an escapee…when you leave the door open he might explore the outside. He’s curious, as most young cats are and he’s very ready for his next chapter: his forever home.
NEW
Dutchess Dutchess has been profiled before. She’s another very affectionate female tabby cat, the same age as Pepper we think; about 1.5 years. She’s quiet but loves to be handled. She sort of quietly watches days go by, buddies gone and she’s still here. Inside she hopes to be the next one to be picked but she’s not pushy enough. She’s definitely worth the trip to LAWS please come to check her out.

Hunter
Oreo He’s as sweet as the name may suggest he’s only 2.5-years-old. Thin build with a beautiful fluffy black tail, that makes him special. Oreo likes being with other cats and is looking for that special lap to sit on. A sunny windowsill would do too, as often you see him balancing between the scratch pole and the window, trying to catch a glimpse of the outdoors he’s longing to explore.

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20
LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23
Aries, you may have to make a few minor changes to your original plan, but other than those minor adjustments there is nothing standing in your way this week.
A small disappointment has you out of whack, Libra. Don’t let it get to you for too long. Family members will help pull you out of a brief funk and get you on your feet.
TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21
SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22
Home improvement projects continue to pile up, Taurus. Use this week as an opportunity to get everything in motion and on the path to completion.
Scorpio, you may be ready to make some really big changes. Forge ahead with the plans you have created, and you will be glad for having done so.
GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21
SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21
A few more tweaks and your master plan will be complete, Gemini. Now you just need a few able-bodied volunteers to work with you through some of the hard labor.
Financial issues come to the forefront of a relationship, Sagittarius. Keep arguments from escalating by being open and honest about all purchases. Things can be worked out together.
CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22
CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20
Cancer, a late-summer trip makes the perfect finale to a few good weeks of recreation. A little adventure is in your future, so make the most of this opportunity.
Few things can wipe away the smile on your face this week, Capricorn. You are in an eternally good mood, and your positivity is intoxicating to others around you.
LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23
AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18
Leo, once you have your mind made up, it is extremely difficult to sway your opinion. Others will try this week to get you onto their side. But you’re just not feeling it.
Aquarius, you will have an enormous sense of accomplishment when you finish a task you thought above your skill level. Always believe in yourself.
VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22
PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20
Virgo, whether you have been lucky or unlucky in love as of late, this is the week for some romantic surprises. Your entire perspective could be turned on its head.
There is little room for things other than work this week, Pisces. Now is not the time to take on new chores. Save them for later.

New report shows Ontario leads country in road safety Lifestyle – The Ontario Ministry of Transportation recently released their latest Road Safety Report (2011) and it provides some interesting insight to the status of our driving skills and road corridors. The report analyzes traffic collisions from every jurisdiction in the province and provides break-outs and statistical data on fatalities, injuries, pedestrian and cyclist events, types of vehicles involved, and basically all the who, where, how, when, what, and sometimes why. First the good news: in terms of surviving our roads, Ontario has the second lowest fatality rate per 10,000 licensed drivers in North America (Northwest Territories beat us) at 0.53 per 10,000. This is the 13th consecutive year that Ontario has been rated number one or two. Measured by distance driven our overall collision rate has dropped steadily from 3.2 per million kilometres in 1988 to 1.4 in 2011. If you’re an extra cautious sort, you stand the greatest risk of dying in a motor vehicle collision on an early Friday evening in July in Toronto between 6 and 7 p.m. with good light and visibility conditions and clear roads if you’re a driver between the ages of 45 and 54 (over 75 if you’re the passenger). Pretty amazing that winter’s worst can’t do us in as easily as good roads and clear skies. Drinking was still the number one cause of collision deaths in 2011 at
Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER
23.3 per cent of the 466 victims but inattentive drivers were the cause of 14.3 per cent of those fatalities. The Ministry of Transportation didn’t differentiate between electronic distractions and others such as eating or drinking or reaching for something in the back seat. And yes, excessive speed was responsible for almost 20 per cent of deaths on our roads according to this report. The complete report is worth the read and can be found at www.ontario. ca/orsar. “Dear Brian, Just want to thank you for the great article on ignition switch concerns recently. Unfortunately, we are experiencing the exact same problem as mentioned. The ignition has turned off suddenly while driving our 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan. It has happened three times now since we bought this van second-hand last September from our local dealer. As a matter of fact, tomorrow we are taking it back to the dealership whereby a technician is going to take it for a test drive to see if he can “find” the problem.
It’s very frustrating and a complete waste of time as we had told them, as it only happens randomly and without warning. We will persevere until they replace/fix the ignition, especially since we also purchased the extended warranty. Any suggestions or advice on how to proceed further would be greatly appreciated.” Sincerely, Eric The problem is most likely related to the ignition switch on the dash and if the switch is just loose, a foam bushing that was developed by Chrysler can be installed at a reasonable cost to improve the tension on the switch to keep it from moving to the off position if jarred or bumped. However, a number of these switches had to be replaced to resolve this issue and their cost is around $460 for the part alone. If the dealer finds the switch is defective and can’t help with the cost if it isn’t covered by an extended warranty, I’d suggest getting in touch with Chrysler Canada’s consumer line to see what can be done. Eric followed up with me recently with this note: “FYI...the dealership finally replaced the ignition switch module with a new set of keys last month. This was covered under the extended warranty we had purchased (After all this time!) Thank you for your much appreciated advice.” On Saturday, Aug. 16, the fifth annual Nepean Kiwanis Club Charity Car

1958 Chevrolet Impala hardtop found in Alberta Lifestyle – Ken Hunter of Arner, Ont., was born in 1943 and at age 21 purchased a 1958 Chevrolet Delray in Picton, Ont. At the time, he really wanted a ‘58 Impala, which first came out that year. Forty-six years later, he bought one, and it’s a real beauty! Here is the story. The first owner lived in Texas and kept this Oshawa-built car at his cottage near Red Deer, Alberta. He later sold it to a teenager, who took it to a body shop for some restoration work. When he couldn’t pay the bill, the body shop confiscated the car and kept it for the next 20 years, often driving it in parades and at weddings. The fourth owner was a geologist in Calgary, who unfortunately parked it outside and mice got into it. He finally put it up for sale in 2010. Ken saw the ad on the internet. He phoned his two brothers in Alberta and asked them to look at the car. One brother phoned back and said: “You better buy it! And if you don’t, I will!” The car had not been driven in 10 years, and one of the brothers said the gas in the line had turned to shellac. But it was well worth buying. A truck company told Ken the car was too big and so he shipped it by rail. Door to door was $1,600. The 2-speed
Powerglide transmission was leaking. Ken took it to World-wide Transmission in Windsor and an older man was called out of retirement to fix it. The automatic transmission has now been completely rebuilt. The car came with a 283 V8 and 2 bbl. carb which Ken has now replaced with a 4 bbl carb and Edelbrock intake from Performance Plus in Blenheim. The car has been repainted in the original Caribbean Turquoise and Arctic White by “Top Gun,” a body shop in Harrow. The car has bias-ply wide whitewalls, AM radio, heater, windshield washers controlled by a button under the dash, fender skirts, and a factory-installed continental kit. Ken added the outside rear view mirror and also replaced the interior side panels and headliner. The seat covers are original. Ken’s grandchildren love sitting on the pull-out arm rest in the middle of the back seat. I’m always looking for more stories. Email billsherk@sympatico.ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, Ont. N8H 3W2. Submitted photo

Two students receive $1,000 bursaries from 4-H Canada Laurie Weir
ljweir@metroland.com
Community – Two young 4-H Club members were recent recipients of $1,000 bursaries thanks to the Chrysler Foundation. Laura Scott of Oxford Mills and Derek Oliver of Rideau Ferry picked up their cheques on Aug. 6 from the Smiths Falls Town and Country Chrysler dealership owner, Brad Kyle. “Congratulations to both of you and the work you do with 4H,” Kyle said. “We are proud of you and proud to be able to present these scholarships to the two of you who are so close to Smiths Falls.” Scott was all smiles as she accepted her scholarship, saying it would ease the financial hardship somewhat. “It will help me purchase books,” she said. Scott, 18, is a graduate of North Grenville District High School with plans to attend Guelph University in the fall for a bachelor of arts degree in food, agriculture and resource economics. “I’m not sure which forte yet,” she said. “I like the marketing aspect of it, and I’m excited to see what fits… what I like.” She’s been a 4H Club member for eight years, and she enjoys showing cattle at a various fairs and festivals. The best part about farming on her parents’ 1,000 acre cash crop farm with Limousin cattle is “being outdoors,” she said. “I love being out with the animals… the early-morning part I had to train myself to be a morning person, but for the most part, I love it outside… except when it’s really cold.” Scott added that she was “thrilled to be one of the 100 recipients across Canada to win this award.” For Oliver, 17, the bursary will also be used for schooling. He plans on attending MacDonald College (McGill University) in Montreal. “I will be taking farm management and technology,” says the Perth and District High School graduate. “It will teach me basic farm management and
Experience
business concepts… how to take care of crops.” Oliver’s family also has a 1,000-acre dairy farm with 200 head of cattle. They milk 70 Holstein cows. He says he has been a 4-H Club member for eight years and enjoys meeting new people and judging various competitions. “I like judging fairs, and take part in the Lombardy and Perth fairs,” he says. Ontario Federation of Agriculture’s Ruth Vogel of Rideau Lakes Township says it’s important to keep the next generation invested in farming. “It’s tough these days,” Vogel said. “It’s very expensive, so scholarships like these are important. It’s really exciting to see two local young people receive these scholarships especially when 100 of them were awarded across Canada. That’s exciting.” Vogel added that it is important for youth to reach their goals and their full potential, and the OFA is always encouraging that. “OFA is interesting in kids reaching their full potential and it’s important for the future of agriculture,” she says. The Ram Canada scholarships recognize 100 scholarships for 100 years of 4-H in Canada, totaling $100,000. According to 4-H Canada, the opportunity allows 100 deserving 4-H members to further pursue their post-secondary education in September. There were some 200 members who applied for scholarships. Scott Westlake of 4-H Canada was at the presentations on Wednesday afternoon. He is from the Ottawa office. “We are thrilled to be able to deliver these scholarships,” Westlake said. “There are 25,000 kids now across Canada in 4-H, so this is really an indication about how these top 100 members are exemplary. Their resumes are outstanding and they have to be in good standing in 4-H as well as have good academic studies to be considered for the scholarships.” The Chrysler Foundation made the scholarships possible. This is the charitable arm of Chrysler

“Education and leadership go hand-in-hand when preparing today’s young people for the jobs of tomorrow,” said Reid Bigland, president and CEO of Chrysler Canada, in a press release. “These scholarships, which are based on merit, academic records, leadership and involvement in the agricultural community will go a long way to help deserving young people throughout the country further their education.”

RINK
From the front page
Nicole McKernan, the town’s senior planner, told council that, on advice from the town’s insurance provider, they would be seeking $5 million in liability insurance coverage, as opposed to the $2 million option preferred by the Senators Foundation. McKernan also stated that there would be a $1 lease clause in the agreement, showing the project’s independence from the municipality, and also as a way for the municipality to sidestep the procurement bylaw. But McKernan stressed that the town would insist on quality assurances. One area of difference between proponents of the plan and town staff was over the use of building materials. Town staffers prefer the concrete floor option, while the Senators Foundation prefers the asphalt option used at many similar rinks in Ottawa. Town staff explained that concrete has a lifetime life span, while asphalt would have to be replaced – at the town’s expense – every 12 to 15 years. Council was informed that the town’s ten-
nis courts, for example, were going to cost about $170,000 or so to repair. However, Rob Garvin, of the Gerry Lowe Memorial Foundation committee, said that the concrete option came with a $120,000 price tag. “The concrete pad does add a significant cost to our group, which we are willing to eat up,” said Garvin. However, Garvin later admitted that the “concrete pad is the way to go, long-term.” After 36 months of planning for the Smiths Falls rink however, Garvin’s frustration began to show somewhat at the meeting. “We would like to move this forward,” he said. “We would like to have it done by this fall.” Already, the foundation has $100,000 in the bank and more than $180,000 in in-kind support, including a local construction firm which Garvin said were donating time, materials and equipment to the construction effort. Differences over building materials aside, Coun. Lorraine Allen stated that “this is a good news story. I think this is going to be a great thing.”
Coun. Ken Graham added, “We want to make it happen.” “Let’s get building this,” said Coun. Dawn Quinn. Jonathan Bodden, director, business development and corporate relations for the Senators Foundation, told council that the rink would provide “a significant and meaningful impact…on the lives of young people,” in Smiths Falls and the region. “We
I
appreciate all of the support that has been shown to this.” Following the meeting, Garvin said he was happy with the outcome at council. “I’m encouraged and appreciate council’s reactions and remarks to the project,” Garvin said. “We are expecting to do the ground breaking around 5:30 p.m. or so on Aug. 20. We want to get this project going.”

in front of their doors blocking escape routes. In addition, Rempel said she has gotten a restraining order against the man in question following an alleged assault. Since this time she has been unable to enter her property as it would contravene the restraining order. According to the Landlord and Tenant Board website (http://www.ltb.gov.on.ca) a tenant is someone who pays rent in return for the right to occupy a rental unit. Pringle served a trespass order on the man July 21, but says it has not been enforced by police. Deputy Chief Mark MacGillivray of the Smiths Falls Police Service declined to comment on specifics of this case, but did say, “We’re certainly assisting in any way we can in terms of keeping the peace.” Both Pringle and Rempel said they are frustrated with the lack of support from the mental health services and the police, saying they are not trained to address a situation like this. Smiths Falls Coun. Dawn Quinn agrees with Pringle, saying this man needs to be in a group home where his medication is managed and is given regular meals. “This man, he needs help because he’s fallen through the cracks,” Quinn said. The councillor said she feels for the landlord, saying rights between tenants and landlords need to be 50-50 for everyone’s benefit. Rempel has acquired the services of Rogers Law Firm out of Carleton Place in hopes that the individual in question will be removed from her property. The law firm declined to comment, saying it is important for the safety of all involved. At this point, it is unknown if there is any damage done to the property. Rempel said she had to remove rotting food from the basement which cost her $100. But she added that she is out thousands of dollars for rent from two tenants who have left over this issue and the fact that the man in question has paid no rent since his arrival at the end of June. “I’m exhausted. I sleep four-to-five hours a night,” Rempel

said, who added this will be the last time she answers that call for help from LCMH, saying the last six weeks have been extremely challenging for her. LCMH did not return the Record News’ phone calls this week, however Randy Hillier, MPP for Lanark, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington, who has been working with the property manager since this issue came to light June 30, has been in contact with LCMH and reports the information he’s received is that the organization had always intended the housing arrangement to be long-term. “There’s nothing fair for anybody in this,” Hillier said, who feels full disclosure of an individual’s current psychological state is required if services like LCMH are to ask the public for help. Hillier expressed his disappointment with the police service in not removing the man from the property, saying: “This is just one more case that illustrates what we’re not doing right,” he added. “There’s got to be a more resolute effort to fix this problem.” At Queen’s Park there is a movement to address the gaps in mental health care. The Select Committee on Developmental Services released a final report entitled Inclusion and Opportunity: A New Path For Developmental Services in Ontario this July. It contains 45 recommendations to be completed in the next 12 months to address the gaps in services for all those with special needs including the mentally ill. Among the recommendations is to remove funding to organizations and instead provide funding to an individual’s case. Another significant proposal is to improve the coordination across the different service providers. Hillier said he has seen cases where tenants have caused so much damage that the properties are “made worthless.” Stacey Roy/METROLAND “I don’t know why anybody would want to be a landlord in A man refuses to leave this house on Park Avenue, managed by Dave this province the way the legislation is constructed,” Hillier Pringle, (inset). Pringle says the man hasn’t paid rent since June. said.

Council dips into next year’s budget for money for Cataraqui Trail Desmond Devoy
desmond.devoy@metroland.com
News – Smiths Falls town council has jumped ahead into next year’s budget process, pre-approving $10,000 for the Cataraqui Trail. Council met at a special town council meeting to grant special pre-budget approval for $10,000 from the parks and recreation capital budget for 2015 to go towards developing a trailhead in Smiths Falls. The total value of the design is estimated at about $34,000, and will include biker racks, a parking area, identification sign, gazebo, access gate and landscaping and planting, according to Nicole McKernan, the town’s senior planner, speaking earlier at town coun-
cil’s committee-of-the-whole meeting on Monday, Aug. 11. The Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority (CRCA), which runs the trail, is looking to tap into a $10 million fund brought about by money from the federal government to the National Trails Coalition. The CRCA is looking at applying for four projects, to the tune of $116,000, for: • Bridge improvements at Rutledge Road and Chaffey’s Locks • The creation of a small parking lot at Golf Club Road • The establishment of a Smiths Falls trail head. • Trail construction of about 4.5 km in Rideau Lakes Township. Frontenac County has already agreed
to kick in $11,000 through gas tax funding for the proposal. Smiths Falls’ $10,000 will go “to assist in leveraging the available federal funds.” “The CRCA has confirmed that if they do not receive the full contribution requested from the municipality, they will be required to change the scope of work for the project,” said McKernan. However, the source of the remaining $6,000 was somewhat of a mystery to town staff. McKernan reported that she hoped that the money would be drawn from “a reserve fund that was established by former police Chief Larry Hardy and Victoria Ash for the purpose of upgrading the snowmobile trail in Smiths Falls. Staff have been unable to find many details regarding the fund, however, it has been determined that
the funds were collected through a gas tax at Drummond’s gas station.” A note in the report submitted by McKernan to council adds that the estimate is “based on staff knowledge of the reserve, to be confirmed by the treasury department.” McKernan pointed out that the trails and trail head have already been identified as being important to the community, according to the Pedestrian Linkage Study and the Economic Development Action Plan. The trail head land will be in an area currently shared between the town and a local snowmobile club, and “staff see the proposed site as an ideal location as it will eventually front on the opened Ferrara Drive road allowance.” While the town is willing to contribute funding to the trail, in terms of
long term planning and maintenance, no agreement has been reached between the town and the CRCA. “The CTMB (Cataraqui Trail Management Board) would like to engage the municipality in discussions regarding the maintenance of the trail from the proposed trail to the intersection of Ferrara Drive and Ferguson Drive,” said McKernan. “She hoped that such discussions between the CTMB and the town’s community service department would result in a memorandum of understanding between the two sides. “There are too many unanswered questions, including ongoing operational costs for the municipality, and it would be premature to offer an opinion,” said McKernan.

Hospital announces new president and CEO to take over reigns Oct. 6 News - Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital board of directors announced the appointment of a new president and chief executive officer, Beverley McFarlane. McFarlane is a registered nurse with executive level experience who joins the organization from Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare. She most recently held the position of chief, quality and chief nursing executive at that multi-site organization. Prior to this position, she served as the director, nursing and diagnostic services. She will officially start Oct. 6. Retiring president and CEO, Linda Bisonette will remain at the hospital until Oct. 31, 2014 to allow for some tran-
sitional time with McFarlane. The engagement of McFarlane concludes a rigorous and lengthy recruitment process for the organization that resulted in a number of excellent and varied candidates. The goal of the recruitment committee was to find a person who would be able to continue the momentum and progress achieved under the leadership of Bisonette. “On behalf of the board of directors, I am certainly pleased with the outcome of the recruitment process. I feel we have engaged the right person to keep our organization moving in the right direction,” stated Richard Schooley, chair, PSFDH board of directors. He added,
“Ms. McFarlane joins us from another multi-site organization situated on the border of two Local Health Integration Networks similar to that of PSFDH which will give her the right perspective when determining what will best fit PSFDH and area needs.” Paul Huras, CEO, South East Local Health Integration Network said, “On behalf of the South East LHIN, I congratulate the board on securing such a quality leader as Beverley. I look forward to working with her as we all try to improve access to high quality care in the Perth-Smiths Falls area and across the South East. I also will miss working with Linda and wish her the best.”
McFarlane is a native of Huntsville, Ontario and brings with her 30 years of health care experience. She is a graduate of Laurentian University and recently achieved her Masters of Arts in Leadership Studies. She is an engaged senior healthcare executive with extensive leadership experience in a broad range of clinical, corporate and systems portfolios in a community hospital setting. Her healthcare leadership responsibilities have increased since 1990 with a bedside to board room focus. “I am excited with this step in my career and I look to working with this organization. Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital has a solid reputation for
providing high quality care and service which is reflected in its recent achievement of exemplary standing from Accreditation Canada,” said McFarlane. “The board of directors is truly grateful to Linda (Bisonette) for her hard work in not only stabilizing our organization, but in moving initiatives forward in the catchment area’s best interest,” said Schooley. “The board offers their good wishes to Linda in her retirement from our organization.” Bisonette assumed the role of president and CEO in June 2012 after being with the hospital for over 30 years. Submitted by the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital board.

Sue Brandum, executive director at the REAL Deal, holds up a light fixture that once hung in the entrance area at 140 Elmsley St. Fixtures and countless other items, like the above left fireplace made of solid wood, and the tiles that surrounded it have been removed from the building prior to its demolition, scheduled for this month.

News – With such a small window of time available to them, volunteers with the REAL Deal have been able to rescue a significant amount of heritage elements from 140 Elmsley St. before its planned demolition later this month. The demolition of the stone house has been delayed to allow the REAL Deal crew to conduct a salvage operation inside where they and a team of skilled volunteers carefully removed items such as the wooden fireplace mantle, all baseboards, doors and trim, metal items such as furnace grates and stand up radiators, light fixtures, bathroom pieces, floor boards, and, if time permitted, even a window or two. “We know people are into the vintage things,” explains Sue Brandum, executive director at the REAL Deal store. “We sell a lot of doors so the more doors of solid wood we can harvest the better.” Brandum added that the contractors hired for demolition have “generously given us an extension through this week to continue” removal of materials. REAL Deal will also be hosting an auction of such materials to be held on their site Wednesday, Aug. 27, hosted by Dan Peters Auctions. “We had a team put together quickly to salvage the stone window sills on the weekend,” Brandum added. “They are about 500 pounds each. So far, with some truly fabulous volunteers in our community, we’ve put in the equivalent of about 25 days of volunteer time
removing materials.” Many of the doors were taken out of the home, including the solid wood sliding doors on the ground floor. All pieces include their original fittings as well. Brandum thanked the volunteers, like Phil Meany, a retired mason who came out to volunteer two days for the cause. Meany said he wanted to help the REAL Deal on this project as a way to acknowledge the craftsmen who built the house so many years ago. “We should show respect and give it new life,” Meany said. The professional mason was astonished to discover the foundations on the home were hand carved by masons at the time of construction and that the brick work was in incredible shape. If he could rewind time Meany would have liked to have brought Algonquin College mason students into the property for the salvage and deconstruction phase as a way to give them first-hand insight into how certain techniques were achieved at the height of their trade. “Let them (students) tear it down,” Meany added. “This would have been great for the students.” Brandum has become aware of the level of skill required to carefully remove heritage décor having completed two salvage jobs like this just last year. “It is a skill,” she said. Brandum hopes this know-how is not lost in time as it will become increasingly needed in an era that has begun to appreciate repurposing and up-cycling items rather than filling landfill sites.
“It’s going to come. It is coming,” Brandum said. This salvage job was made possible thanks to Coun. Ken Graham and his efforts to link the REAL Deal with the demolition crew who accepted slight delay. Graham is the council liaison on the REAL Deal board so he was aware of the organization’s past salvage jobs. Once he toured 140 Elmsley St. he realized the value of the craftsmanship and set the wheels in motion. “While the building, in my opinion, isn’t worth much else it’s great to see that the pieces are being salvaged and used somewhere else,” he said. The brick home was initially purchased by the town in 2009 for $130,000 with the intent to demolish it for additional parking at the arena. A presentation by the then chief building officer, Daniel Prest put a halt to the demolition due to its unique character and solid structure, and plans for the building’s reuse as a welcome center began to unfold. That is until the winter of 2012-2013 when the water lines in the house broke. At this time it was discovered the house had knob and tube wiring and only was half removed when it was discovered there was no heat on the premises. As of Dec. 6, 2012 a staff report by Lynda McKimm estimates the cost of work on the house to be in the neighbourhood of $87,000 not including the HVAC system. This does include $11,000 to restore the front porch to its original design. In contrast, the cost estimate to demolish the building is listed in this same report as being $29,800 plus taxes.

The day the laughter died
O
pinion – Why is it that a man who gave the world so much joy, so much laughter, whose smile and manic goofiness was unable to make himself smile? As it almost always is with suicides, Robin Williams’ apparent suicide on Monday, Aug. 11, in the San Francisco Bay area, leaves behind not only heartache and grief, but too many questions for his family, friends and fans. It just doesn’t make sense. Why does the death of Robin Williams hit so hard? Because he could make you laugh. Because he could make you forget about your problems for an hour or so. Because it was a delight to witness so much talent exploding too quickly, joke-after-joke raining down in rapid-fire on the audience. In a statement, Williams’ widow, speaking of the loss of her “best friend,” said that “it is our hope (that) the focus will not be on Robin’s death, but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions.” His publicist told The Hollywood Reporter that Williams had been battling severe depression. Some of his more dramatic, or subdued roles, proved to be his most personally revealing. It is interesting that he played a psychiatrist in his 1997 performance in Good Will Hunting, for which he won a Best Supporting Actor nod. But a bravura performance as a psychiatrist did not, in the end, translate into him getting a handle on his own demons. How many of us rented, or downloaded, Mrs. Doubtfire on Monday night, or slipped in a CD of his old comedy routines, like his 1986 stand-up routine, Live at the Met? Facebook that night had countless odes to the Walt Whitman poem “O Captain, My Captain,” which Williams helped bring to life in his 1989 movie, Dead Poets’ Society. He was also one of the few comedians who could make something like the Vietnam War funny in Good Morning Vietnam – no easy task. In one of his more serious roles, 1998’s What Dreams May Come, he plays a husband who loses his wife to suicide. Another aspect that makes this so sad is that he was part of childhood for so many of us, whether it was playing Steven Spielberg’s version of Peter Pan in Hook (1991) or as the voice of the genie in Disney’s Aladdin (1992). When he died, a part of our childhood died with us. It’s interesting that some of Williams’ comedy idols, like Richard Pryor and Jonathan Winters, also battled depression and mental illness. During a routine at the Just for Laughs comedy festival in Montreal, Winters told the audience that, when asked how he was doing, he would reply, “Well, I’m out.” After the roll of laughter, he added, “but then, you’d have to have been in to appreciate that.” Winters, who acted with Williams on his break-out sitcom hit Mork and Mindy (1978 to 1982), was able to put his turmoil out there – even a little bit. It must have helped. Others were not so lucky. A stand-up contemporary of Williams, Richard Jeni, for example, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in 2007. But Williams had been trying, going to a rehab clinic as recently as last month, reportedly feeling burned out after more than a year of non-stop work. He had been sober from his alcohol and drug addictions for a year, despite relapses, and even worked his addictions into his act. Hauntingly, he was one of the last people to see troubled comedian John Belushi before he died of a drug overdose in 1982. The list goes on with the comedic profession seeming to attract people who have deep emotional problems for which comedy provides a catharsis, but not necessarily a cure. He spoke to ABC News anchor Diane Sawyer about his alcoholism and, in a chilling foreshadowing, said, “It’s the same voice… you’re standing at a precipice and you look down, there’s a voice and it’s a little quiet voice that goes, ‘Jump.’” But you don’t have to. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, and you can get help.

Communication is key
pinion - Sometimes being a good neighbour means listening and meeting someone half way. I hope that is the approach the new Smiths Falls council takes with their rural neighbours following the upcoming municipal election. Elections have a way of stirring up the pot of community priorities and this election is no different. In the last month I have had the chance to re-connect with many in the community and have been following the discussion on social media, and it seems the number one issue continues to be job creation. No argument on that one from me. The one question I do have is how does the Smiths Falls and area plan to accomplish such a large task? If you were to ask me (and no one really has, but here it goes at any rate) I’d say the first order of business this fall should be to sit down with rural communities
STACEY ROY For the Record
like Montague Township and hash out an agreement for land annexation and service extension. Don’t misunderstand, I have no inside information meaning I don’t think there is anything pending, and that is exactly my point. This is a discussion that will take a lot of time and would really benefit from not having a looming development project over their heads. Let’s be proactive, Smiths Falls. Let’s complete this discussion and then we can truly say we are ready for growth and new jobs in the region. The town does have some vacant space at the former Hershey plant and other vacant buildings, but what do we have for someone
who wants to build new besides the land that once held the South Unit hospital? Modern businesses desire modern facilities and a build to suit is always desirable. Anything that is to be built in town will likely have to be along the highways or town boundaries, which makes this discussion critical. This is the natural order to my mind. The decision that will be made from this discussion is too important to make it under stress, but is invaluable in both communities’ efforts to attract business. There is no way of knowing if this agreement would result in any new interest, but it stands to reason that the more stages to development you can remove the more attractive an area looks to someone looking to invest. The citizens of Smiths Falls have already bought into the community as the great place it is. It’s time we set out the red carpet for incoming businesses to find out what we already know.

Community – Saturday was a special day for Samantha Taillon of the Smiths Falls area as she had a successful yard sale for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. Here, she is pictured (right) with her grandmother Connie Markwick and her mom, Moira Markwick. The girls made the trip to Ottawa on Tuesday to donate to the hospital.
Youth donates sale proceeds to CHEO Laurie Weir
ljweir@metroland.com
Community – It’s not every day that your average nine-yearold wants to hold a yard sale – not to mention a fundraiser. But that’s what young Samantha Taillon, 9, of the Jasper area, did on Saturday as she set up shop, complete with an iced tea booth, to help raise money for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. She raised $300. Her mother, Moira Markwick, along with her parents Connie and Don, decided to help out the youngster with her cause.
“I just wanted to raise money for CHEO,” said the youth. It was when the girl was just a little more than two years of age when she was struck with a virus that landed her in the children’s hospital for a week or so. And it was just two years ago, that Samantha decided she wanted to start a fundraising effort, only at that time, it was for Locks of Love, an organization that collects hair to create children’s wigs. “She had a good 10 inches anyway,” said her grandmother, Connie. “She had pretty long hair… way down her back.”
Her fundraising isn’t going to stop with this year’s yard sale and iced tea stand. She wants to maybe get her fellow students involved in another CHEO fundraiser, once she gets backs to school. She will be entering Grade 4 at Chimo Elementary in Smiths Falls. “Maybe a bake sale,” she said, “and a barbecue next year… hamburgers and hotdogs.” The family said they were thrilled with the support of the community. “Everyone was very generous,” Don said. “We want to extend a big thank-you to them.”

Community – It looked like a shipwreck last weekend, as a two-day yard sale took place at the Shipwreck Restaurant in Rideau Ferry to benefit Mel’s Farm, All Animal Rescue, which by all reports, was a “huge success.” People came from all over with their own donations to drop off for the event, then shopped along the shore of Big Rideau to get a bargain of their own. Pictured are some of those early-morning shoppers from Saturday. Also pictured are the trio of hard-working women and volunteers with the shelter, including Melanie Young, Linda Bell and Cat Bond.

Nicole McKernan, town planner (right) spent much of her time collecting feedback from attendees at the Official Plan open house Aug. 7. Above Lois Dewey of the Lanark, Leeds & Grenville Healthy Communities Partnership sits with McKernan to discuss the draft plan.
Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
Events - Those interested in having a voice on what Smiths Falls looks like in the year 2034 will want to attend the Aug. 18 Official Plan public meeting inside council chambers at 4 p.m. The upcoming meeting aims to collect public feedback on the draft Official Plan document that will guide the town’s growth for the next 20 years. Nicole McKernan, planner with the town, explained the draft Official Plan is a high-level policy document with half of it meeting the requirements of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing and “the other half of it is building a community that we really want to see.” This plan operates as both an Official Plan and an Integrated Community Sustainability Plan. Approximately 40 people attended the open house event held Aug. 7 at the Memorial Community Centre to see if the draft plan reflected their vision of the town for the future. The meeting provided a lot of constructive feedback, including concern around the desire to enhance bicycle paths and pedestrian areas by widening the sidewalk and installing bike paths on the roads. “Let’s make sure the roads are worn out before we do that,” remarked Jan Stepniak, town resident. Others like local businessman, John
Maloney was concerned about the bike path’s disrupting vehicle traffic flows, particularly in the downtown core. “I knew that was going to get a lot of heat,” McKernan admitted. Discussions on use of roads, bicycle paths and the like that are found in the plan really serve as a jumping off point for a Transportation Master Plan that McKernan would like to see undertaken for the town. Such a plan would answer key questions like truck traffic movement through the town. “Right now there are only four streets in town that are signed for no truck traffic,” McKernan notes. Another key issue is the development of parklands, recognizing not all parks will have the same amenities but will be suitable for its size, location and purpose. In particular, the plan speaks to a future discussion on how to make town parks active all year long including the winter months. “We’re trying to create a more cohesive park system across the town,” McKernan said. To this end, town staff has asked council to provide comments on a number of priorities for the plan, including the concept of ultimately having a trail system connection on the north side of Queen Street. Councillors will be providing their individual list of priorities to staff shortly.
Two projects that already warrant their own section in the plan is the former South Unit property and the Gallipeau Centre. The South Unit is being left as flexible as possible, recognizing a mixture of residential and commercial may end up on the site. However, the Official Plan makes one thing perfectly clear about this property: “We expect something spectacular,” McKernan said. Further details on what this might be will be part of a future document known as design guidelines. The Gallipeau Centre was land acquired through annexation by the Township of Montague, however its zoning designation was never changed from Institutional/Rural to Mixed Use. Currently, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing is asking for the existing buildings to be developed before the vacant land space. Once the Official Plan is formally approved by council (which staff plan will be at the Oct. 6 meeting), a zoning bylaw update will be on the table. This document, like the Official Plan, is a legislative requirement of the province and is required no later than three years after the Official Plan is passed. McKernan noted the Official Plan process is meeting its timelines and within budget.

Ice cream social at the Heritage House Museum Aug. 20 Community - The Heritage House Museum celebrates the end of the Backyard History Day camp series on Aug. 20, with a special Ice Cream Social. Join your child or grandchild for a family-friendly afternoon of ice cream, treats and traditional summer games. The campers will spend the morning learning how to prepare traditional homemade ice cream and will create beautiful decorations that they’ll take home with them.

stop in for the “social” in the afternoon from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. The campers can invite up to two guests to come and be a part of the party that they spent the day making. There will be traditional Victorian lawn games like croquet, ring toss, sack races, a classic bubble party, and of course, they get to eat the yummy treats they prepared in the morning, including their homemade ice cream. The ice cream social is the last Backyard History day camp of the summer at the Heritage House Museum. The cost is $25 per child for the full day.
Don’t forget to take advantage of the $2 weekend special this summer. All visitors can visit the beautiful 1860s home and our special exhibits for only $2 per person (under six are free).

Letter to the Editor
Change needed for township: reader DEAR EDITOR:
After reading the article in the Smiths Falls paper, July 24 about incumbent Mayor Ron Holman’s desire to stay on as mayor for another term, I have to wonder. He states in the article that this is a critical time for the township. What does he mean by critical? Over the last several years we have gone from a no debt township to several million dollars in debt. My husband has talked to several taxpayers who live on some of these roads slated for tar and chipping work. Several of them say they don’t want it done. They feel it will only create a situation where people will be driving too fast for it to be safe. Sunday, July 20, my husband was on McCann Road twice. He met at least 12 vehicles on this road, and estimates two of these vehicles were travelling under 80 kilometres per hour. I think it is time for Ron Holman to step aside. An unsatisfied taxpayer of Rideau Lakes Township, Betty Dean Phillipsville
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Additional information regarding the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment, including a copy of this notice, is available for public inspection normal office hours at the Clerk’s Office at 77 Beckwith Street North. DATED AT THE TOWN OF SMITHS FALLS, THIS 14TH DAY OF AUGUST, 2014.

Montague pays homage to founders Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
News - The foundation of Montague Township is as strong as the stone the community sits upon, so it is not surprising that a sample of this stone has been used to commemorate the founders and builders with a marker in Memorial Park. The park, established on the grounds of the township offices on Roger Stevens Drive is an Economic Development Committee priority, but began as an idea many years in the making. Reeve Bill Dobson recalls many discussions on this project with former reeve, Bill Buffam. “He was really dreaming of this,” said Buffam’s wife, Grace. The local resident donated $1,000 towards the Montague Memorial Park project, saying she hopes the initiative will encourage other township residents to think twice about their local history and those who made the community what it is today. Dobson thanked Buffam for her generous donation that will allow for 18 plaques of eight names each to be installed near the granite stone marker that was set in place last fall. “We wouldn’t be able to finish the project without your do-
nation,” Dobson added. “We’re ready to go.” The donation has been paired with a $6,000 Local Initiatives grant from Valley Heartland CFDC. The plaque will feature last names only and will be listed as they appear in the census. Dobson explained this is to mark their place in the township’s history, while ensuring no one is forgotten. In the coming weeks the first 18 plaques will be installed on the curved walls that flank the Memorial Park stone sign and once held the municipal sign. These plaques will have the names of the founders in the community who lived in Montague from 1821-1901. The township welcomes donations for the project at any time, which will be used to place additional plaques on the wall that will cover the years between 1901-1951 and onwards. “There will always be builders of Montague,” Dobson said. He sees the project as an opportunity to keep local history alive and strengthen community pride by starting a discussion on history. “There’s a lot of stories to be told,” he said. Before 1860 Montague resi-

dents were given clearance to hold a fall and spring fair each year in Roseville (present day Rosedale area). In those days the Roseville community had a stone cheese factory, creamery, blacksmith, tannery, post office and three hotels to name a few. “It was the stage coach stop over between Brockville and Perth,” Dobson said. This and many more stories are available in Glen Lockwood’s history book of Montague, which are still available in the township office. Like the Memorial Park, this book brings history to life by telling the stories of the people who built the roads and the farms that are used every day. The Memorial Park is the third phase of a beautification initiative on the township office property. The Economic Development Committee began with removing the old signs and repairing the stone walls that supported it. Following this, the committee installed flag poles before work on the Memorial Park project began. A formal unveiling of Memorial Park will be planned once the plaques are installed. Please watch future issues of the Record News for this update.

Country Diner owners thank community for 20 great years Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
Business – For the last 20 years the Tsarouhas clan has welcomed many Smiths Falls and area families in to the Country Diner to enjoy a meal and share memories. “It’s just a family diner. We’re very fortunate and lucky to have it and lucky to have the support from Smiths Falls and the surrounding areas,” said George Tsarouhas, one of three siblings to operate the diner alongside their mother, Vaso. To thank the area for its support, the family is handing out anniversary Tshirts to some of their loyal customers this month. The Country Diner on Union Street opened its doors 34 years ago in 1980 when Vaso Tsarouhas and her husband moved to the area with their young family. Their dream to create a friendly, family diner that would become part of their customers’ traditions has certainly come true, but Mr. Tsarouhas did not live to see this day. Just two years after opening the restaurant the patriarch of the family succumbed to cancer. The Tsarouhas family has taken this emotional milestone in their lives and made some good from it by annually taking part in the Kayak for Cancer fundraiser. Those early days were not easy. Vaso kept the family business alive and raised three
young children in the process, earning her the undying respect of her children. “It’s my mom who’s made it what it is,” George Tsarouhas said of the restaurant. “We’ve all grown up and been a part of the diner all our lives.” He was just 16 years old on Aug. 1, 1994 when he and his three siblings formally took over operations of the restaurant, making this year their 20th year in business. “It’s hard to believe,” he said. Throughout the years the Tsarouhases have come to see their loyal customers and staff as family, celebrating joys and grieving losses. “We have the most amazing staff that a boss can ask for. It’s a team effort,” George said. It is this personal touch and commitment to the true family diner experience that the family feels is the Country Diner’s secret to success. This approach has resulted in intensely strong customer loyalty with some individuals choosing the Country Diner for all three meals each day. “It’s been a great ride,” George said. It’s a ride the family doesn’t intend to finish any time soon. They demonstrated this a year-and-a-half ago when the family made the difficult decision to invest in cosmetic upgrades to the restaurant. “That was really big for us,” George said.

Henderson reaches final at 114th U.S. Women’s Amateur After phenomenal match play result, 16-year-old eyes LPGA Canadian Pacific Women’s Open STAFF
Sports – A sizzling back nine for American Kristen Gillman proved the difference in her 2 up victory over Smiths Falls’ Brooke Henderson in the 36-hole final at the 114th U.S. Women’s Amateur on Sunday. Gillman, 16, of Austin, Tex., birdied five of the final 10 holes to reverse a 3-down hole and claim the prestigious championship in ideal playing conditions at the Nassau Country Club in Glen Cove, N.Y. In a preamble interview, Henderson said she had never played with Gillman before, but “I talked to her the first time the other day in the locker room. She seems like a really nice girl, and obviously she’s playing really well.” Henderson had some thoughts before the match. “Definitely going to play my game, be smart about decisions. Match play is really different from stroke play. You’ve got to be really careful and smart,” she said. Sunday’s was a remarkable final with both players putting on a great display of shot making. Unfortunately for Henderson, one month younger than her opponent, the putts just wouldn’t drop for her down the stretch. “I played well today, and I held the lead after the first 18,” said Henderson after her round. “I just didn’t play quite as well on the back 18 as I would have liked. Kristen played really well and she made a lot of putts when she needed to.” At 1 down on the 34th hole, her 10foot birdie effort just lipped out, resulting in a half.

championship-clinching putt after Henderson’s own birdie effort just rolled wide. On the 36th and final hole, the American did one better rolling her approach to two feet short of the cup. This time she made no mistake, tapping in on the final hole for the 2 up win. For the day, Henderson was remarkably steady, claiming a 2-up lead over Gillman following the first 18, firing what would be a three-under-par round. “It’s been a great week, I really enjoyed it,” added Henderson. “I definitely will learn a lot from this and take away a lot from this week.” Her afternoon round was almost equally steady. She continued to drive long and straight down the fairway, consistently on the green in regulation. She was undone only by Gillman’s extraordinary run. As one of the strongest players to come out of Canada in a while, she was trying to become the first Canadian to win this championship since Cathy Sherk did it in 1978. What does it mean for Henderson to play with ‘Canada’ on her shirt and to play for her country? “It’s really cool,” she said. “I’m playing for the national team. I get to represent my country everywhere I go and every tournament I play in.” She added that she hoped she would do Canada proud. Next up is the Canadian Pacific Chris Fry/PGA of Canada Women’s Open, an LPGA Tour event at London, Ont., in two weeks. She won two of the three tournaments of the qualifying series for that championship. Fans and tournament officials look on as Smiths Falls’ Brooke Henderson takes a solid stroke from the fairWith files from Golf Canada and way during the recent PGA Women’s Championship of Canada. The talented 16-year-old won this title with two incredible rounds, then made it all the way to the final of the 114th U.S. Women’s Amateur. USGA.

Grand prix derby racers take to Beckwith Street for big show Joseph Morin
joe.morin@metroland.com
Community - Families and friends of young soap box derby racers enjoyed warm clear weather Sunday, and the excitement of watching their favourite soapbox derby driver compete against a great field in Smiths Falls. Sunday, Aug. 10 marked the 11th anniversary of the Smiths Falls Ontario Gravity Grand Prix. This year, for the first time, the competition included a battle to represent Canada at the First Energy All American Soap Box Derby. The All American derby takes place in Acron, Ohio in 2015. It was also the eastern Ontario stock championship. The first ever winner to head off to Ohio will be seven-year-old Marshall Demars from Barrhaven who fought off countless competitors throughout the day to come out on top. Marshall is eight years old. His win was not completely a surprise after only two years of racing. “I had lots of fun,” he said. “My strategy was make sure not to look at the other competitors when I was racing. I did not want to get to be distracted.” Frederick Demars is his grandfather.
Joseph Morin/METROLAND
These soapbox derby racers have survived the day-long 2014 Eastern Ontario All-American Soap Box Derby competition in Smiths Falls on Sunday, Aug. 10. He was instrumental in driving the idea forward of participating in a soap box derby. When he was a child his grandfather used to race soap box racers. Smiths Falls will be joining up with other Canadian racing communities to represent Canada in Akron. Canadian
drivers will be up against the best in the world from Germany, the United States, Japan and even New Zealand. There were other champions declared at the race Sunday in Smiths Falls. The Super Stock champion was Ethan Jewell; Street champion was Matt
Bracewell; Masters champion, Caitlyn Leaver and the Pro champion, Braden Wilson. The competition kicked off with a special presentation to derby organizer Marshall Cubitt from Smiths Falls Mayor Dennis Staples, Scott Reid, MP for Lanark, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington, and fellow derby organizer Bernie Daynes, who is the international regional director for the all-American soap box derby in Akron. Cubitt was recognized as the driving force behind the Smiths Falls derby, which features cars made from kits and drivers from age seven to 13 years. Cubitt remembers how he was involved with the original Lions Club derby over the years. At that time the event was partnered with the Smiths Falls Canal Fest celebrations. Eventually the two events separated. “I just said I would stay with it,” said Cubitt. He explained that the business community and council have been supportive to the derby. “The Downtown Business Association, Chamber of Commerce and the council have been helping us,” said Cubitt. “They got us all hooked up and helped to get the word out.” After the drivers’ meeting and the
special presentation it was time to get down to business. A special treat was an inaugural run down the course on Beckwith Street by Braden Wilson from Peterborough with his driving partner Monte Cristo, his canine companion. Monte Cristo who lives with Sonja Lishchynski and Stefan Dumas of Ottawa is the inspiration for the couples’ blogs about how to travel with your pet. Monte Crisco is four years old and is a longhaired Chihuahua. There were more than 16 entries in the race. One first time racer was Ethan Fitchell from Smiths Falls. Ethan is seven years old and in a way is carrying on a family tradition. His grandfather Earl Merkley remembers taking part in the same soap box derby races on Beckwith Street many years ago. “The races were a tradition,” he said. The soapbox derby is a great opportunity for many families to do something together. “This was chance to something with my grandson,” said Merkley. Ethan has a younger sister named Rowan who Ethan’s father Jeremy said might want to take part in the derby down the road.

Race the Runway on the ground Aug. 23 at Montague airport Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
Events - On Aug. 23 the period between an extreme racing car’s finish at Race the Runway and their racing time going public will be faster than the vehicle itself thanks to a new, free app being launched this week. The app (Race the Runway 2014) is compatible with both android and Apple smartphones and is being launched co-operatively with Race the Runway organizers and flick software. Once the app is downloaded onto your device, it will upload timed results of each vehicle’s performance in real time on the day of the race and hold it for up to a year. This is the second year the event has offered such a service to car enthusiasts. Peter O’Blenis, event organizer said he is pleased with the service and hopes it will allow even more people to become part of the Race the Runway experience this year. “There’s nothing quite like it,” O’Blenis said of the event. “It’s really quite special.” This is the third year the Russ Beach MontagueSmiths Falls Airport has been transformed into a legal racing strip for high end and modified vehicles. The gates open at 8:30 a.m. with the first race scheduled for 9 a.m. Last year Race the Runway broke an airport record for the most people to attend a single event in the airport’s history when 3,000 people came out to view the cars.
“We expect this year we’ll be quite a bit bigger,” O’Blenis said. They come to view the 80 performance vehicles that will be on site racing up the strip and the over 100 vehicles in the display area. Last year’s overall first place vehicle was a Lamborghini Aventador, but O’Blenis said that car will be left in the dust when its owner brings another Lamborghini this year. “It’s more than twice as powerful,” the organizer added. “It could set a record.” Vehicle owners have consistently marked their calendars for the annual event not only because it is one of the only times they can legally push their performance vehicles to the limit, but also for the opportunity to meet other car enthusiasts. “We’ve got stuff coming from across the country and some from the United States,” O’Blenis confirmed. Spectators are welcome to attend for a $5 admission fee (those 12 and under are free). Not only are those who attend the event able to get up close and personal to some of these cars, they can actually ride in one. For a $35 donation, the charity fun rides take passengers on a 2.5 km tour around the runway. If you donate $55 you get to choose the car! “People drove from Toronto last year to go for a ride in these cars,” O’Blenis said. The cars are different every year so be sure to come down and see what will be on the runway
this year. O’Blenis was inspired to organize the event in 2012 as a way to support local charities while enjoying one of his favourite past-times. In 2012, O’Blenis has the chance to stretch out his own Lamborghini Diablo and recently explained the feeling of being behind the wheel at top speeds of 270 km an hour. “It’s scary. The runway starts to feel very narrow,” O’Blenis said. Not only is the slightest touch to the steering wheel result in significant movement of the car, but stopping when moving 260 feet a second is challenging when given only 1,350 feet of room. Over the years many vehicles have blown out their tires or brakes in the racing event when able to push the car to its maximum. Every vehicle that takes part in Race the Runway is thoroughly inspected to ensure they have adequate racing tires

Spectators at this year’s Race the Runway event at the Russ Beach Montague-Smiths Falls Airport will feature a number of performance vehicles like this one. The event allows car owners to push the limits of their vehicles while letting the general public see them up close.
Thursday Twilight golfers modify WE INSTALL their games for this scramble Sports – Hinton Dodge was the gracious sponsor of the Aug. 7 edition of the Thursday Night Men’s Twilight, offering up a modified scramble. Groups had to use at least one tee shot from every member of the group, adding a little pressure and a lot of fun. Rick Murphy, Larry Smith, John Strickland, and Gerry Simmons handled the heat in fine fashion, posting the low score on the front nine. George Hewitt, George Thomson, Roy Leach, Brodie Berry, and John Tobin also made their shots count; they cruised to victory on the back side.
and solid brakes. That being said, the blowout experiences are learning opportunities. O’Blenis estimates half of the cars at this year’s event are returning from previous years and of those almost all have modified their vehicles in some way. This year’s event aims to raise $30,000 in support of the local Flying Club and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County. “They’re just good, local causes,” O’Blenis added said. “It’s really about the community more than just the event.” There have been requests to move the event to other locations in Canada, but O’Blenis said Race the Runway was intended to support the Smiths Falls area and here it will stay. Pets are not welcome at the event for safety reasons. All spectators are encouraged to bring sunshade and chairs for the day. Food concessions from the Lions Club and the fire department will be open.
The Roosteraunt closest to the pin prizes went to Ben Poulin and Rob Dopson for there tee shots on holes 3 and 14. Steve Evoy and Graham Merpaw stuck their approach shots tight on holes 6 and 10 to win the Burns Jewellers gift certificates. I think a nose ring would look nice, Graham. The big hitters of the night were Jordan Shew and (you guessed it) Adam Summers. They took their tee shots deep on holes 1 and 13, winning the Town and Country Chrysler longest drive prizes. The lucky 50/50 winner was Bob Mulrooney, and John
McKenney took home the bottle of Rocky’s Road Rash. After an evening of playing golf with his brother, he needs it.

An Ideal Husband: The more things change, the more they stay the same Arts – A public figure involved in scandal. An influential person implicated in bribery. A bureaucrat using his office for personal advancement. A highly respected man lying to his wife and friends to cover his misdoing. Sound familiar? But no, it’s not Canada’s own political scene. It’s the plot of Oscar Wilde’s play, An Ideal Husband, opening tonight (Aug. 14) at the Studio Theatre. It seems the more things change, the more they stay the same. Except in this case, we are meant to laugh. The theatre darkens; the lights come up on the Chiltern’s opulent dining room, superbly recreated by the talented Reiner Silberhorn. Lord and Lady Chiltern, played by Mark Francis Daley and Krista Duff, are presiding over a gathering of London’s most affluent and respected people. Along with the Chilterns, we find Lord Goring (Lucas Tennant), a congenial, dandified bachelor who is interested in Lord Chiltern’s sister Mabel (Alison Kirkpatrick); the malevolent Lady Cheveley (Meredith Millman) whose mischief nearly brings the Chiltern marriage tumbling down; two typically silly Victorian ladies, Mrs. Marchment (Joanna McCauley) and Mrs. Basildon (Carell Allen); plus a querulous society matron (Norma Cummings). And all is kept running smoothly by the two indispensable butlers, Phipps and Mason (Paul Joyce and Alfred von Mirbach). The party is congenial until Lady Cheveley drops the bombshell to Lord Chiltern that she has a letter proving that Photo courtesy of Penny Silberhorn some years ago, he had made his fortune illicitly selling cabinet secrets on the The cast of the Studio Theatre in Perth’s latest production of Oscar Wilde’s play, An Ideal Husband: from left, building of the Suez Canal. This, she will Norma Cummings, Krista Duff, Lucas Tennant, Alison Kirkpatrick and Meredith Millman. It runs Aug. 14, 15, disclose unless he supports her fraudu- 16, 17, 21, 22, 23 and 24.
lent scheme to build a canal in Argentina. He agrees, but when he tells Lady Chiltern of his decision, she is mortified. An “ideal husband” must be counted on to keep his word. At that point, whole Victorian fabric of proper society begins to unravel. And just to complicate matters, Lord Cavershan, Lord Goring’s father (Brian Tannenbaum) issues the demand that his son marry the perfidious Lady Cheveley. How Lord Chiltern resolves the problem and remains the “ideal husband”, you will have to see for yourself. (Which he does, by the way, with much hilarity as only Wilde in the hands of a veteran director like David Parry can create.) You’ll miss the laugh of the season if you don’t see this classic of the theatre. An Ideal Husband opens at the Studio Theatre, 63 Gore Street East in Perth, on Thursday, Aug. 14 for eight performances: Aug. 14, 15, 16, 21, 22 and 23 at 8 p.m., and Aug. 17 and 24 at 2 p.m. Tickets are available in person at The Book Nook, 60 Gore Street E. for $22, cash only.

A convenience fee applies to these latter two outlets. Tickets are $24 at the door, and students with ID pay just $10 at the door on show night.

Report what you see in the water with Citizen Water Watch Community – Noticing green algal blooms or excessive aquatic plant growth in your lakes or rivers? You can now easily report it! The Citizen Water Watch website (www.citizenwaterwatch.ca) allows recreational water users to report any observations of green algal blooms or excessive aquatic plant growth to a central data base. These observations will help to better monitor green algae and aquatic plant growth in eastern Ontario lakes and rivers. Whether you are an angler, boater, paddler, swimmer or any water en-
thusiast, we are asking you to report what you are seeing on the water that you use. Information about when, where and how often algal blooms and excessive aquatic plant growth are occurring will help develop future research on the causes of green algal blooms and excessive aquatic plant growth in local lakes and rivers. This information will also help us gain a greater understanding about the algae and aquatic plant growth in the waters that we cherish. The first phase of the Citizen Water Watch website has been created as a
part of The People, Aquatic Plants and Healthy Lakes: Finding the Balance in Eastern Ontario’s Lake Country Project. This project, being done by a collaborative group consisting of Friends of the Tay Watershed, Carleton University, Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority and Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, is being funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation. Algae and aquatic plants are a part of a healthy aquatic ecosystem but in excess they can put stress on other organisms in our lakes and rivers.
Ninja Turtles film falls short of original MOVIE: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles STARRING: Megan Fox, Will Arnet, William Fichtner, Tohoru Masamune, Pete Ploszek, Johnny Knoxville, Alan Ritchson, Noel Fisher, Jeremy Howard and Tony Shalhoub DIRECTOR: Jonathon Liebesman RATING: PG Arts – Could someone please tell me why Michael Bay is determined to ruin my childhood? I was so excited when I heard the Turtles were coming back to the big screen. Then I heard who was making it. New York is under siege. The Foot Clan is behind a crime wave that has the city’s police helpless, and its citizens cowering in fear. It seems no one will stand against The Foot, and their leader Shredder (Tohoru Masamune). That is until four vigilantes rise from the shadows to face The Foot. Luckily reporter April O’Neil (Megan Fox) is there to capture the vigilantes on film. Unfortunately, the Turtles aren’t keen on being caught on camera. The Turtles catch April and wipe her camera, but after getting up close and personal with four six-foot talking turtles April is left with more questions than answers. No one believes April when
My Take
MARK HASKINS
she claims there are ninja turtles fighting The Foot. Undaunted, April continues to look for answers, and soon finds herself in the sewers. She meets Leonardo (Johnny Knoxville), Raphael (Alan Ritchson), Michelangelo (Noel Fisher), Donatello (Jeremy Howard) and their master Splinter (Tony Shalhoub). Together they uncover The Foot’s plan to destroy the city, and decide it’s time to stop hiding, and time to become heroes. The good news is Michael Bay didn’t actually direct this film. The bad news is his fingerprints are all over it. The special effects are outstanding, the fight scenes are dazzling, and the action is mind bending. Of course much of the film doesn’t make sense, and the story is rushed as they commit the cardinal sin of telling the audience instead of showing the audience. So what didn’t make sense? Let’s start with it’s summer time
in New York, but winter at the villain’s lair in the mountains surrounding New York. Did I mention there are mountains surrounding New York? We also have Shredder’s Iron Man suit. Shredder is already a dangerous and cool villain. The suit doesn’t make him more dangerous and cool, it makes him lame. There’s more, but I only have so much room. The cast is okay. I don’t buy Tony Shalhoub as the voice of splinter, but Meagan Fox is a decent April O’Neil. Will Arnet’s character seems to be there just to drive April around. I like William Fichtner as Eric Sacks, and Tohoru Masamune could have been a great Shredder if they hadn’t gone with the CGI battle suit. The Turtles themselves are a team effort consisting of motion capture performers, voice actors, and a lot of CGI. All in all the Turtles look and sound great, it’s just too bad they are treated like special effects instead of fully fleshed out characters. The first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie is still the best Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of this newspaper.
Many local recreational water users have noted an increase in algae and aquatic plant growth, despite little observed change in nutrient concentrations which are often the cause of algal blooms and excessive aquatic plant growth. Reporting observations of algae and aquatic plants will help us better understand the excessive plant growth and find ways to improve aquatic environments. To report a sighting go to www.citizenwaterwatch.ca, create an account and click on the “Report a Sighting” tab, fill out the form and hit submit.
Knowing the name of the waterbody and nearest town where your observation took place as well as a picture will be helpful information to include. For more information about this project, visit http://rvca.ca/programs/ algae_watch/index.html or contact Kaitlin Brady, RVCA algae watch project co-ordinator at 613-692-3571 ext. 1154 (kaitlin.brady@rvca.ca) or Mike Yee, RVCA biology and water quality manager at 613-692-3571 ext. 1176 (michael.yee@rvca.ca.)

Rob passed away on Sunday, August 10 at the age of sixty-eight, at his home on Otty Lake after a brief illness. He will be greatly missed by his wife of forty-four years, Sue, his two children, Beth (Heiko) and Will (Cat), as well as his three grandsons, Colin, Tom and Andrew. He left with his loving family close by and his trusty dogs, Emma and Sophie, at his side. Rob was born in Montreal and moved to Perth via Toronto in 1985, having turned away from the city for the country life he had always dreamed of. It was the job of Manager of Shaw’s of Perth that first brought him to the area, which was followed by nearly ten years in financial planning, before retiring in 2005. Rob enjoyed every moment of his retirement. An avid outdoorsman, he loved trout fishing, partridge hunting, canoe tripping, kayaking and snowshoeing. He has camped and kayaked in Georgian Bay with Sue, paddled some of Canada’s remote and wild rivers with Beth and Will, and fished in Northern Quebec with his friends. In recent years, Rob delighted in sharing his passion for fishing with his eager and admiring grandsons. Throughout his adult life, Rob took pleasure in restoring and repurposing antiques, such as turning windows into mirrors and wagon wheel hubs into lamps. Just last year, he completely transformed a neglected 1950s era wooden boat into a working masterpiece. Rob was the essence of resourcefulness, making the old new again, repairing almost anything and finding ingenious solutions to everyday problems. His core values of integrity, truthfulness and reliability have been passed along to his children and grandchildren and the greatest impression he could leave, was the courage and grace he exhibited during his devastating illness. A private celebration of Rob’s life will be held at a future date. In the meantime, those wishing to salute Rob are asked to raise a glass of fine single malt scotch in his honour. Reflecting his lifelong love of the outdoors, donations to the Canadian Wildlife Federation or the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS), would be appreciated.

McMULLEN, Loretta August 13, 1999. In memory of a loving wife and mother. We watched you suffer, We heard you sigh, But all we could do, Was just stand by When the time came, We suffered too, For you never deserved, What you went through. God took your hand, And we had to part, Eased your pain, But broke our hearts, You left beautiful memories, Your love is still our guide, And although we can’t see you, You are always by our side. Sadly missed Husband Elmer and daughters

Peter leaves his wife of 60 years, Ann (Woodley) Sutterlin; his daughter Linda SutterlinDuguid (Terry); son Paul Sutterlin (Lorrie); grandchildren Molly, Nora, Holly and Phillip; twin sister Inge Kolberg and brother Walter Sutterlin; extended family and many close friends. Born in Hamburg, Germany to Helen and Walter Sutterlin, Peter was raised in Galt (Cambridge), Ontario.

Peter’s talent for research and teaching led him to the University of Western Ontario, CANMET (Ottawa) and later to Wichita State University where he taught for 16 years and became Director of General Education. Anyone who spent time with Peter knows how important music was to him throughout his life. He was an appreciative listener and enthusiastic bass singer with many vocal groups, performing everything from classical to barbershop, and everywhere from local nursing homes to Carnegie Hall. After retirement, Peter shared his leadership abilities with his community through active participation in the Heritage Merrickville Foundation and the Merrickville District Community Health Centre. Peter will be best remembered as a devoted husband, father, Opa, brother, mentor and friend. His family wishes to thank the staff of Hilltop Manor for their compassionate care, and to express their heartfelt gratitude to all the special friends who graciously offered help and support in so many ways throughout Peter’s illness.

Loving and devoted mother of Kent Jefferys (Kate), Jay Jefferys (Mary) and Jane Kendall (Lionel). Cherished grandmother of Jessica, Jennifer, Evan, Alex, Amy, Holly and Kate. Time speeds on, one year has passed Since death its gloom, its shadow cast Within our home where all seemed bright, And took from us a shining light. We miss that light, and ever will, Her vacant place there’s none to fill. Down here we mourn, but not in vain, For up in Heaven we will meet again. Dearly loved and never forgotten by all her family
GILLIGAN, Garnet Grant July 8, 1942 - August 13, 2013 Those special memories of you Will always bring a smile. If only we could have you back, If only for a while. Then we could sit and talk again, Just like we used to do. You always meant so very much, And always will do too. The fact that you’re no longer here, Will always cause us pain. But you’re forever in our hearts, Until we meet again. Love: Kathy, Kerri, Geoff and families
We have you in our hearts and we miss you so, so much. Love always, your sons Chris (Sonja) & Bruce (Anne), grand-sons Tom, Nathan, Tijan, and Justin; grand-daughters Christie-Dawn (Cam), and Tijana, and great-grandchildren Emilea, Tiara and Kiella

MILLAR, SCOTT JOHN – In memory of Scott John Millar December 17, 1969 - August 16, 2006 It has been eight very long years without you. We look at your pictures in the frames, memories are all we have now. Memories are still so bitter-sweet. God knows how much we miss you. God knows I got mad at you for dying. You promised you would always be there to protect us. Forgive me for being mad. It was that even when life wasn’t perfect, I knew as long as we were together, things would always turn out great. I am so sorry that you died! You deserved to be a Daddy, longer than only two years. I am so sorry that you never got a chance to fulfill your promise. Someone once told me that, you and I complimented each other in everything we did. We were meant to be! I miss that! Thank you for being who you were and sharing your everydays with us. For paying attention to what makes us happy. For knowing no gestures were ever too small. I often think, what would we be doing today! I wish heaven wasn’t so far away, we could come and visit each and everyday. You’re my best friend forever, without a doubt! I love you not because you were perfect…but because you were perfect for me, my perfect! Our son has blonde hair, good sense of humour, great heart, great friend to have and getting taller everyday. He gets that from you! We miss you Scott and Daddy! We try not to cry because it’s over, but smile because you happened. Love never forgets, Always our Love, Sharon and Wyatt XXXOOO XXXOOO
WarWick, Brian Stafford - August 18 2013. In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandfather. It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone.

In life we loved you and in death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill. Forever missed and loved. Heather, Pam, Chayce, Brad, Crystal, Kori, Trai and William

to find an appropriate approach,” stated Jean-Pierre Blais, chairman, Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission. The CRTC is concerned that the approach taken by the industry in the transition from paper to electronic bills may not have taken into account the specific circumstances of some Canadians. The CRTC is inviting representatives from communications companies to a meeting that will be held on Aug. 28 at its central office. The meeting will be lead by the CRTC’s vice-chairs of broadcasting and telecommunications. Participants will be expected to come up with a clear and predictable approach to paper bill fees, if any, as well as exemptions for any such fees. This will ensure that Canadians are able to make informed decisions.

that their fees range from $0.99 to $5.95 per month for paper bills. Certain companies provide exemptions to these fees, such as for customers who do not have Internet access, but there is no consistent practice across the industry. “We are concerned that not all Canadians have a reasonable choice when it comes to paper bill fees for communications services.

TV’s Survivorman joins Nature Canada in contest to get Canadians outdoors Lifestyle – In honour of our upcoming 75th anniversary this September, Nature Canada – Canada’s oldest nature conservation charity – is launching our 75th anniversary photo contest to encourage Canadians to take advantage of the summer months, get outdoors and connect with nature. Until Aug. 31, amateur photographers and nature enthusiasts can enter their best nature photos for a chance to win a variety of prizes ranging from an unlimited National Parks season pass to Vancouver Aquarium tickets to bungee jumping. The grand prize is an impressive multi-day hike from Copper Cayuse Outfitters. A panel of celebrities including Olympian Michael Tayler, award-winning photographer Michelle Valberg and Les Stroud, better known as TV’s Survivorman, have generously agreed to judge the contest.
The contest is a simple way for youth and families to explore nature whether nearby in their NatureHood, at their cottage or during their summer vacation. “As Canadians get outdoors and start exploring, Nature Canada thinks people will inevitably start to connect with nature on a deeply personal level. We think this is the first step to ensuring the health and well-being of both nature and, frankly, of ourselves too,” said Jodi Joy, director of development for Nature Canada. Contest submissions can be made through Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, email, and regular mail. For details on how to submit and for the contest’s rules and regulations, please visit our website: naturecanada. ca. Submitted by Nature Canada.
