Brooke Henderson wins first LPGA title in Cambia Portland Classic round sporting five birdies en route to a solid 3-under par 69. She tripped up on the short par-3 13th hole and turned in a bogey, but was stellar on the 17th, with a long putt from the fringe to go back to minus-22.

Then the 18th started a little rough with a drive into the bunker on the par-4. A safe shot from the sand trap back into the fairway was all she needed to take a chip shot onto the green. She two-putted for the win.

“I was just trying to play my game the whole way through,” she told the media after putting out on 18. “It’s unbelievable and I’m so

Brooke Henderson showed composure of a seasoned veteran Sunday to win the Cambia Portland Classic in Oregon, capturing her first LPGA title with an impressive 21-under par total of 267.

The 17-year-old Smiths Falls native had Brooke Henderson an incredible 8-stroke victory over her closest pursuers – Pornanong Phatlum, Ha Na Jang and Candie Kung who tied at -13 in the second position. She joins Lydia Ko and Lexi Thompson as the only players to win on the LPGA Tour before their 18th birthday.

Brooke was cool under pressure through Sunday’s final

excited. Everything was together, and even (Saturday) I was hitting the ball really well, and a couple shots that I didn’t hit perfect, I mean, I got lucky bounces and had birdie putts and was able to make them both times. Yeah, it was a great week, and I think my game has been at a great level all season, but this week — well, since Monday, really, it all came together, and I was able to go low.”

She had what her father, Dave, called a “Welcome to Brookeville” moment, when she shot her 3-wood off the 17th tee.

Ottawa Senators hope to hype fans with pre-season tour Second annual to visit 12 locations including Carleton Place, Perth and Kemptville Ceci said he was amazed by the attendance at last year’s tour stops.

“You don’t really realize how many fans there are outside in the smaller communities until you get there and you see a huge line of people,” he said.

Getting ready Senators players are starting to filter into the city to start training early, said Ceci.

“It just shows that everyone is committed to the season and we are all ready to get back at it,” he said.

With a good end to last season, Ceci said he and the team hope to keep that energy rolling.

Apart from bringing up his own defensive numbers, he said his hopes for this season include getting back in the playoffs.

“We were kind of counted out around Christmastime and from there we went on a bit of a tear, so it was really cool for us to win that many games and make it into the playoffs,” he said.

The Ottawa Senators are hitting the road for their pre-season Hometown Tour, taking place from Aug. 18 to 27 at Canadian Tire locations from Kingston to Gatineau, including stops in Carleton Place, Perth and Kemptville. Below, Senators defencemen Patrick Wiercioch, left, and Cody Ceci meet with some young fans at last year’s Hometown Tour.

Ceci will be taking part in the event again this year where fans can win free tickets, get autographs and test their skills.

The event is both a chance for Sena-

tors players to see fans from far and wide, but also see a bit more of the communities their fans call home, said Robinson.

“Fans travel a ways to come see us a lot of times, and now it’s our turn to go to them and get our players to see what eastern Ontario and western Quebec is all about because sometimes they don’t necessarily get out past Ottawa,” he said.

The Ottawa Senators are bringing players and some pre-season excitement to their fans with the second annual Hometown Tour, starting Aug. 18.

The tour sees 12 days of free events at Canadian Tire locations in 12 different communities in eastern Ontario and western Quebec featuring two Senators players interacting with fans and signing autographs.

Senators defenceman Cody Ceci took part in some of the tour stops last year and will be again this year.

“Meeting all the fans was a great time and to see all the support was really cool for us,” said Ceci.

The events aim to get fans to show their Sens pride to win tickets and display their skills with some interactive games.

Those include ball hockey matches, mini stick games on mini inflatable rinks, a shot speed and accuracy test and more, said the team’s director of fan and community development, Aaron Robinson.

“We have lots of opportunities to interact with the fans,” he said. “(The Hometown Tour) is a chance for us to get out and thank fans and get ready for the season.”

Robinson said he expects there to be more prizes available this year, with fans able to sign up to win free tickets to Senators games, as well as ticket giveaways for people who show up in their best Sens gear to show their love for the team.

But the main attraction is the players, who will sign autographs at each event. The Senators will reveal which players will be at which tour stop the Monday before the tour.

Hometown Tour stops will take place at the following locations: • Aug. 18 - Alexandria at 400 Main St. South from 1:30 to 5 p.m.

County paramedic service to retrofit ambulance for multi-casualty incidents Ashley Kulp

akulp@perfprint.ca

A surplus ambulance could give the Lanark County Paramedic Service (LCPS) an extra tool in helping to save lives.

During a report to Lanark County’s corporate services committee Aug. 12, LCPS deputy chief Sean Teed explained the paramedic service currently has a surplus ambulance that can’t be used any longer due to its mileage and age. While surplus vehicles are traditionally passed along to county municipalities, all passed on it so he is proposing retrofitting it for training purposes and for use in multi-casualty incidents (MCI). County councillors agreed

and endorsed a motion which is expected to be approved at an upcoming meeting of county council.

“We could bring more training to our staff instead of bringing staff to training.

Having a training vehicle in our environment that (staff) are used to working out of, they will have a much more valued experience and provide better care for patients,” Teed stated.

The ambulance could be used as a simulator to test medics on protocols including IV initiation. “By having this vehicle set up to deliver this type of training, the vehicle can be driven to the various bases around the county so that the paramedics on duty can be tested in a timelier manner

as opposed to setting up scheduled training days,” the report to the committee stated. It wouldn’t only allow paramedics to be trained in a more effective manner, but would also “allow the service to increase our ongoing training without increasing our training costs.”

LCPS doesn’t currently have the resources to respond to MCIs, as each ambulance is set up to transport and treat one patient. “We don’t have the ability to meet any needs other than day-to-day calls,” Teed continued. “If there was a bus accident or multi-vehicle incident, we only have enough equipment in our ambulances to care for a critical patient.

This (MCI) would allow us to carry

extra equipment.”

According to the report, there have been a several bus accidents in Lanark County in the past few years which raises awareness “that in the event in which multiple injuries the service should have at its disposal a capability to better deal with these incidents.”

County Coun. and Perth deputy mayor Ed McPherson, who is also the LCPS chief, said Renfrew recently purchased an MCI vehicle for $100,000 and this option is a more cost-effective measure for the county. Conversion costs aren’t expected to be more than $5,000, to cover additional insurance and equipment.

“In my 30 years of experience, I don’t

personally feel that an ambulance service needs a $100,000 like that sitting in the bay...this truck will be dual purpose and is going to allow us to be much better than we are now,” McPherson noted.

County Coun. Brian Stewart (Lanark Highlands mayor) questioned where the LCPS would store the vehicle. “We have a couple options to consider and have been working closely with a mechanic to make sure the vehicle is still sound and it is so one of the recommendations is to having it stored at that garage until we find a permanent house for it,” Teed answered.

“This is an excellent idea and worth it (the money),” said Coun. Sharon Mousseau (Beckwith deputy reeve).

Harper’s economic record may prove to be a double-edged sword Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

Stephen Harper is hoping that his economic record will prove to be his trump card heading into the Oct. 19 federal election.

The opposition is hoping that, with the looming threat of Canada entering a recession, it will prove to be his Achilles’ heel.

“We know that the Harper Conservatives are going to play to their economic credentials,” said Jim Stanford, an economist with Unifor, Canada’s largest private sector union, during a speech at a union-sponsored conference for young workers at Toronto’s Ryerson University on Saturday, Aug. 8. “(It is a) claim we will hear over and over again.

They like to brag about their economic credentials.”

While he disagreed with the strength of the Conservatives’ economic record, he did concede that “economic issues will be the number one issue in this election.”

An author and regular panelist on CBC Television’s flagship newscast, “The National,” Stanford said that there would likely be three major talking points from Conservative headquarters about the Harper government’s handling of the economy: • Balanced budgets that were “on time and as promised.”

• The creation of 1.3 million

He pointed out that when they took Martin Liberals.

and is now more than $616 billion in debt – although Stanford conceded that “Canada’s debt is actually low in relation to other countries and our past debt loads.”

Interestingly, Aaron Wudrick, federal director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, based in Ottawa, agrees that the debt is all too high – “in our point of view, he (Harper) racked up too much (debt),” but hastened to add that a lot of the debt was added during the recession in the form of stimulus spending – paid for by deficit spending.

“What do they suggest that this government should have done instead?” asked Wudrick, during a telephone interview on Monday, Aug. 17. “There was a worldwide economic recession.” If left up to the likes of Unifor, Wudrick said that Canada would have ended up with a “bigger deficit,” than the one created by then finance minister Jim Flaherty.

Scott Reid, the Conservative candidate in Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston, and an MP in the area since 2000, pointed out that the deficits his government has run since 2009 were actually the creation of the opposition parties, the Liberals in particular. In 2008, the bottom had fallen out of the market, with the sub-prime mortgage issue making things worse.

“They (the Liberals and NDP) were going to kick us out no matter what the election said,” said Reid of the late 2008 See RECORD page 6

RECORD From page 5

constitutional crisis which nearly brought down the Harper government.

“The Liberals imposed this (deficit spending) on us. It’s in the historical record.” In essence, by his recollection, the Liberals were telling the Harper Conservatives, “we will drive you out of office if you fail to meet these targets,” on stimulus. “He (Jim Flaherty) did that spending as he was required to do by the opposition parties.”

Stanford did charge, however, that there have been about $15 billion a year in cumulative spending cuts since the Conservatives won a majority government in 2011, and that there are 50,000 fewer public servants than there were in 2011, with cuts in areas like: • Transport safety • Employment Insurance processing • Food safety • Veterans • Research/statistics • Coast Guard stations It is on points such as this, however, that Conservative MP Scott Reid disagrees with Stanford’s assessment.

“We are trying to deliver services for less,” said Reid, during a telephone interview on Tuesday, Aug. 18. “We are a small government party.”

There has also been reports of ministries in Ottawa under-spending their budgets.

“You’re not fiscally prudent (by underspending),” charged Stanford. “You lied to parliament. You’re reckless.

That’s not just misleading, it’s antidemocratic.”

At this assessment by Stanford, Reid was baffled.

“This is being presented as a problem?” Reid said, nearly laughing. “Oh wow. If you spent without parliamentary authority, that is not permissible…

If you come in under budget, that’s not a problem.”

Reid, while underlining that he has not seen Stanford’s presentation, or the video that was made at Ryerson, to be posted soon online, or even read a transcript of Stanford’s dialogue, stated that it appeared that Unifor was most interested in protecting the jobs of its members in the abovementioned areas.

(Indeed, later that same morning at the union conference, Unifor’s national president, Jerry Dias, spoke of his

initiatives that have not been popular with his federation.

“We are not thrilled about income splitting,” said Wudrick. “We would have preferred an income tax cut.”

His federation does not endorse any one party, and he even likes some of the Liberals’ family tax proposals. The New Democrat pledge of a business tax cut was also welcome news for him.

“All three of the parties are talking about tax relief,” he said.

But while the Conservatives have offered tax relief, he would have preferred that it had been more “simple and broad.” The tax relief they did get from Harper instead, was done in “the most complicated way.”

Stanford and a fellow economist at Unifor crunched the numbers and did a study of every Canadian prime minister who served more than a year in office since 1945 (thereby excluding Joe Clark, John Turner and Kim Campbell.)

By their estimates, Harper ranks right at the bottom, economically, of any postwar prime minister, when compared to King, St. Laurent, Diefenbaker, Pearson, Trudeau, Mulroney, Chretien and Martin.

“Youth employment declined under Harper,” said Stanford. The household debt rate was also the worst under Harper, along with the worst record on the average annual economic growth, real exports, and per capita GDP (Gross Domestic Product) growth. His study also gave Harper the worst average annual growth rate for employment, and job quality index, for all the years studied.

But Wudrick dismissed what he saw as Stanford cherry-picking statistics.

“They (Unifor) don’t like this government. (They use) metrics that don’t look good for this government.” Wudrick accused Unifor of “picking the statistics that best suit (their) argument.”

Reid vehemently disagreed with Stanford’s assertion about Harper being the worst post-war prime minister, economically.

“I think anybody who has got any inkling of history will know that is not so,” said Reid. He pointed to Pierre Elliott Trudeau’s economic record, especially from the late ‘70s to the early ‘80s, a time beset by double-digit prime interest rates, double-digit inflation, sluggish to bad economic growth, and high deficits. “I look at that (Trudeau’s economic

record) and I say that’s a worse record.”

The Harper government recently passed balanced-budget legislation, but Wudrick is not impressed.

“Why should we believe them, because they ran several of them (deficits),” said Wudrick. As for some of the criteria used by Stanford, Wudrick said it was an example of Unifor “blaming governments for things out of their control,” like per household debt levels.

“If we blame him (Harper) for personal finance decisions, we could blame him for bad weather too,” said Wudrick.

Stanford cautioned that the statistics he looked at did not take into account the year 2015 – if he had, he predicted, the numbers would have been worse, thanks in part to the drop in oil prices.

“It appears that Canada’s economy has slipped back into recession,” said Stanford. “(But) we won’t know that for sure,” until more data becomes available.

Whether Canada is in a recession or not, Wudrick would rather not see a return to stimulus spending.

“We are one of the few organizations that opposed that stimulus package in 2009,” said Wudrick. The economy began to rebound “earlier than the money hit the ground. The stimulus was the mistake.”

Wudrick countered Stanford by saying that this latest economic slump was caused by the drop in oil prices and the economic slowdown in the United States.

As for Reid, he said he was “absolutely” proud to run as a Conservative party on Harper’s economic record, “more than in any previous election.”

Compared to other G7 countries, Reid states that Canada is doing quite well.

“By those metrics, we have a very impressive record,” said Reid. “We are having an argument over technicalities,” over the budget. The United States is in “much, much worse,” shape than Canada.

“We have got ourselves back,” said Reid. “We will follow this seriously.”

STEO releases busing information for upcoming school year Starting this month, information on busing for the upcoming school year will be just a click or a phone call away, for parents and students in eastern Ontario.

Student Transportation of Eastern Ontario (STEO) is the transportation consortium for the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSBEO), and the Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB). General manager and chief administrative officer, Ron Cotnam, stated, “STEO has developed a web site where parents and students can access important information including pickup locations and the name of the contractor serving their area.”

Parents and students can visit the STEO website at www.steo.ca. Parents

A big thank you goes out to Race the Runway and the Smiths Falls Montague Airport Museum Board for choosing Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County as their charity of choice once again and raising $1,000 to support mentoring of local children. The annual Race the Runway event was held at the airport Aug. 15.

Above, back row from left: Big Sister Mel Ruga, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County resource development manager Beth Sinclair, Israel and Jackson. Front row from left: Big Brother Tim McNulty and Ralph McElroy of the Smiths Falls Montague Airport Museum Board.

can then click on the “Find My Bus Stop” button and fill in the required fields to access individual busing information such as pickup location and times.

The site also offers information on school locations, guidelines for parents, bus cancellations, contractor information, bell times, and frequently asked questions. In addition, a school bus safety section has been developed which provides valuable and informative resources.

STEO will also make it easier for parents and students to check on transportation information by maintaining a special busing hotline. The number 1-855-441-1589 will be active from Aug. 17 up to and including Sept. 18.

The impact of a decision

T

he big news in Carleton Place this week is council’s decision to reject a proposal for Manitoulin Chocolate Works to take over the former St. James Anglican Church parish hall, Elliott Hall, to convert it into a chocolate shop and café.

This may have been the first major decision this council has had to make since being sworn-in last December and while some believe it was the right one, others disagree.

Both cases have merit. On one hand, it could be a quaint addition to the area as the proposed plan of the McKeen family (owners of Manitoulin Chocolate Works) is to retain the integrity of the historic Elliott Hall.

On the other hand, the concerns of neighbours about increased traffic, noise and parking issues are valid points. While the hall isn’t technically a part of the downtown core, with an auto shop and two restaurants located just down the street, a case could be made that it may be an enhancement to tourism in the town. The chocolate shop could have been a drawing card for people to come to Carleton Place, who in turn, might stay downtown to do some shopping afterwards.

With the siege of big box stores taking over many of Lanark, Leeds and Grenville’s communities, it’s vital for municipalities to focus on their downtown cores to ensure they remain healthy and vibrant. Taking a drive through the downtowns of places like Smiths Falls and Kemptville, several for lease or for sale signs dot the streets.

The allure of the big box stores with their competitive pricing and extended hours is a real threat. Smaller local businesses now have to rely on dedicated customer service and experience as a way to attract and retain customers.

With the book closed on the chocolate shop in Carleton Place, the McKeen family is now looking elsewhere to expand their business and who knows what could make its way into the former hall. One suggestion, a seniors’ housing complex, could see the hall taken down and a larger building put up, one that would fit in even less with the feel of the neighbourhood. Additional parking and traffic would go along with it.

With this decision, council has set the tone for its term and it remains to be seen if it’s one they will end up regretting.

Plates were piled high for every meal at Mary’s table Father said it was a poor farmer indeed who couldn’t feed his family. Although we never had the treats our cousins had in Ottawa, such as regular trips to the picture shows, or rides on streetcars where the fare for a child was a whole nickel, or store-bought fruit, we knew they did enjoy the ample meals we had on the farm during those Depression years.

I knew this, because whenever they made the long trip out to Northcote, they never left without the back seat of the car being filled with vegetables, eggs and usually a couple freshly plucked chickens.

And when our visitors came, always for a meal of course, they ate like it was to be their last meal on earth! Always they had seconds, which in itself

wasn’t that odd to us. I never knew Father or my brothers to leave the table without first loading their plates for another helping.

Our big meal was always at noon hour. When Mother came to the farm from New York, one of the first things she learned was what meals were served when. She said she made the mistake of calling the noon meal lunch. Father was quick to point out the order of mealtime: breakfast in the morning, dinner at noon, supper at night,

and a lunch was what we had before we went to bed!

No one enjoyed his meals more than Father. Especially dinner. Mother would have cooked all morning and the table would be laden with enough food, I thought, to feed half of Renfrew County.

Soup was never served at noon. It was a supper meal. But on the table, in heaping bowls, always there would be steaming bowls of mashed and creamed potatoes. Father never considered his noon meal much without his potatoes. A roast of beef or pork would be sliced at the stove and it would fill the platter. Of course, that meant a jug of gravy, too. Poured over the entire plate and the remnants sopped up with a thick slice of freshly baked bread.

This time of year, Mother would have cooked up at least two and sometimes three vegetables right out of the garden.

Yellow beans, beets and fresh carrots were always available, and other than cole slaw, we never had tossed salad like Aunt

Vanetta made when we visited Lyon Street in Ottawa. Instead, a large dinner plate held freshly picked sliced tomatoes (on which Mother sprinkled sugar when she put them on her own plate) cucumbers and a bowl of radishes swimming in cold wa-

ter amongst chips of ice from the ice house.

Father didn’t consider it a proper meal if he didn’t have at least one big piece of pie, or a wedge of chocolate cake to top See MARY page 9

off the meal. And all the time, Mother would be constantly refilling Father’s tea cup with steaming green tea.

Although supper was considered a lighter meal, it was indeed hearty, often starting off with a big bowl of Mother’s homemade soup, cold sliced roast, fried potatoes, homemade pickles, and always a fruit nappy of homemade preserves.

After consuming such enormous meals, it was astonishing to me how Father still had room for what he called ‘a bit of lunch’ before crawling into bed. Always there was the cup or two of green tea and a

LETTER From page 8

autocratic government’s disastrous over-reliance upon and funnelling of whopping subsidies for environmentally and economically ruinous fossil fuel extraction from the Alberta oil sands, topped off with the spending of $30 million dollars more of our money to try to convince us that everything is just fine. We all know it is not and any so-called “majority mandate” to enact such ruinous policies came from only 39 per cent of the voters in 2011. Now as greenhouse gases continue to pollute our air and wreak havoc with climate globally, the official advice is basically to suck it all up and “adapt” as if this was an inevitable situation, and at the same time one barely worth mentioning. We are left with

sandwich of roast meat leftover from the day’s meals.

I often would watch Father delve into those enormous meals and wonder why he wasn’t as fat as old Herman who could barely walk. But Father was rail-thin, with energy to burn, and hardly ever sick a day in his life on the farm. He said he owed his good health to hard work and good food.

Father wasn’t one to hand out praise lightly. He rarely, if ever, said to Mother, “that was good,” but often, after tucking away an enormous meal, he would tilt his kitchen chair back on its two hind legs, and with what would pass for a grin, he would say “you have to wonder

what the poor people are eating today.”

And I would think: we are supposed to be poor people... didn’t I hear it often enough when I wanted something as simple as new hair ribbons?

And yet, I would look around that old pine table, and the platters and bowls full of food, all raised from our own hands, and I would think, “yes, indeed, we are richer than most.”

$ new meaning to the old saying “everybody talks about the weather but no-one does anything about it.”

So realistically, until we elect a new government that is capable of actually dealing with such issues effectively instead of, in my opinion, pandering to corporate greed and adherence to our primitive winner-takes-all electoral system, I fear that we can only expect more of the same and worse. It will take a lot of concerted effort to at least slow down the current rate of climate change. But what could be more worthwhile than trying to ensure that our grandchildren have any kind of future at all or that all of our votes actually count? There are in fact do-able climate solutions but we will not be hearing about them from our Dear Leader, or about the urgent need

for real climate action from our own, in my opinion, severely muzzled government scientists.

Worth careful consideration though, is that BC’s revenue neutral carbon tax is working well to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and generate cash mostly allocated towards tax reduction. A policy that works, it’s win-win and could be instituted nationally. A federal revenue neutral carbon fee and dividend policy, as advocated by Citizens’ Climate Lobby will help Canada reach its greenhouse gas emissions reduction target without negatively affecting the poor. We have a chance to turn this ship around on election day though, indeed, we can’t afford not to.

Saskatchewan Roughriders an institution in Regina Museum which focuses primarily on the natural history of the province.

But when you go to Regina it is probable that the first thing you will see is people wearing Saskatchewan Roughriders paraphernalia.

With the possible exception of the Blue Jays’ current run toward the American League East Division pennant – Torontonians are decked out in the team colours these days – one of the most prominent features of daily life in Regina is people dressed in Roughriders jerseys, t-shirts, jackets, caps and carrying items of all sorts featuring the club logo.

Regina and Saskatchewan residents’ love affair with the city’s only professional sports franchise is truly amazing to witness first-hand. Virtually everybody and everything has some connection to the football team.

The Green Mile Albert Street, which to me is Regina’s answer to Carling Avenue in Ottawa, is nicknamed ‘The Green Mile’ in honour of the team.

At one end of the thoroughfare, not far from the city centre, is Mosaic Stadium the Roughriders’ long standing and much loved home field.

Corporate sponsorship is vital in pro sports and the stadium is named for the Mosaic Company which operates two major potash mines in Saskatchewan.

With a view to the history of the facility the official name is Mosaic Stadium at Taylor Field.

Long-time CFL fans will relate to the name ‘Taylor Field’ which is a mainstay in the league. That will change in 2017 when a brand new Mosaic Stadium (the firm has bought the naming rights for 20 years) opens in the city.

On November 24, 2013 Roughriders fans, 45,000 strong, erupted from Mosaic Stadium and poured onto the Green Mile to celebrate their heroes Grey Cup win over the Hamilton TigerCats. Roughies demolished Hamilton 45-23 to become the third consecutive league team to claim the CFL championship trophy on their own turf. It was Riders’ fourth Grey Cup victory, but the first at historic

Reflections

Taylor Field.

“It was insane in there,” a Regina fan told the Metro daily newspaper. “There were maybe two Tiger-Cats fans.”

I’m not surprised. Virtually everyone from Saskatchewan is a die-hard Roughriders’ supporter.

This season the Redblacks aren’t the only early surprise in the CFL. Theirs of course is a

positive story.

On the other side of the fence, unfortunately, are the Green Riders from Regina. The pride and joy of Saskatchewan lost their seven games in a row to start the campaign. The totally unexpected losing skid and the fact their beloved team is now almost certain to miss the playoffs – a rare occurrence in recent times – has cast a pall over the city.

Our daughter Heather says the team’s misfortune is THE topic of conversation everywhere they go. People simply can’t believe the turn of events which has brought the football team to this unwelcome point in its

long history.

There are two good reasons why Riders are winless after seven games (they enjoyed a bye week last week). Both relate to the loss of quarterbacks through injury.

Starting signal caller Darian Durant, one of the league’s best, ruptured an Achilles tendon in the team’s season opener at Mosaic Stadium June 27. He is ruled out until at least the start of the 2016 campaign. Achilles injuries take a long time to heal.

With Durant out veteran pivot Kevin Glenn, who had expected to be purely the back-up this season, was thrust into the spotlight.

He played well enough but the team struggled for consistency on offence (and defence), dropping three more games to fall to 0-4.

Then to make matters even worse, during a 10-point home field defeat at the hands of Hamilton on July 26, Glenn sustained a torn pectoral muscle which will keep him out of the line-up for at least six games.

At the time of his injury Glenn led the league in passing with nearly 1,500 yards gained in passing. He had also tossed six touchdowns.

The Canadian Football League season is now well underway and the Ottawa Redblacks are on the list of early season surprises in the CFL. Ottawa has already doubled their win total from last year’s inaugural season. In fact heading into their game in Calgary last Saturday night they were in a threeway tie for first place in the CFL East Division standings. The defending Grey Cup champions bombed Ottawa in that contest so Redblacks will have to regroup.

Personally I will never like the Ottawa club’s nickname. It’s one of the most bizarre handles in professional sports! Why not the Blueblacks? That would at least have reflected the impact of football on the bodies of the participants.

I would much have preferred the longstanding nickname Rough Riders had been retained in the nation’s capital. However I totally understand why the folks in Regina, where the name Roughriders also has a lengthy history, turned thumbs down on any suggestion that the nine-team CFL have two teams with the same name. Admittedly it doesn’t make sense on close examination.

This missive isn’t about the Redblacks. Instead I am going to focus on the Roughriders, the ones in green and white who reside in Saskatchewan’s windswept capital city.

Since our daughter and her family moved to Regina two years ago we have gained a lot of first-hand knowledge about the city during several enjoyable visits. And while people in the east tend to thumb their nose at places on the Prairies (many people have told me they wouldn’t live in Regina on a bet) we quite like the community. Regina is very self-contained and has everything anyone would want in a city. Except hills of course!

Being the seat of government for the province of Saskatchewan it is also features some impressive government buildings including the Legislative Assembly which overlooks picturesque Wascana Lake. The province’s main museums (there are seven in total) are located in Regina including the Royal Saskatchewan

Head coach Corey Chamblin is feeling the heat with many fans and pundits expecting his dismissal after seven straight defeats. Chamblin, who coached the team to their 2013 Grey Cup triumph, is signed through 2017.

Personally, I don’t see why the blame is being assigned to the coach in this case? To me it’s a poor cop out considering Roughriders’ situation. In addition five of their seven losses have been by a combined total of just 16 points. They lost their two main offensive weapons to injury and yet they have been in virtually every game right until the end.

The truth is you can’t win in professional football without a capable quarterback. That usually means someone with experience too. If you don’t believe that ask Buffalo Bills’ fans. The

proof, as they say, is in the pudding!

Obviously I hope that for the sake of their faithful fans the Roughriders rebound in the second half of the schedule. But it seems a long shot given their poor record and the strong play of so many other CFL clubs including Redblacks – there’s that awful name again!

In closing here is a story I think underlines the Green Riders’ hold on Regina.

When we were in Regina for granddaughter Lily’s first birthday in March, Heather and Indy held a party inviting his colleagues and their new Saskatchewan friends over to the house for some cake and camaraderie.

One couple at the party were relatively new arrivals in the city. He is an engineer who works with Indy, she is a pharmacist.

He is a sports fans and I mentioned the Roughriders and their popularity in Regina.

“Yeah, tell me about it,” he replied, rolling his eyes.

“The first weekend we were here we wanted to look around downtown. We parked near the stadium (Mosaic) and walked over to the Cornwall Centre (a

major downtown shopping centre).

“When we returned there was a parking ticket on our car.

“I saw the guy (parking control officer) just down the street so I approached him and complained,” our new friend outlined. They were well within the prescribed period for daytime parking.

“Hey, why were we ticketed. The signs say we can park here.”

The officer led him to the nearest sign and pointed to a small, hard to read, line under the larger print outlining the parking hours. In brackets the sign noted, “Except on Saskatchewan Roughriders game days.” The team was playing a home game the same afternoon.

“That’s not fair. We’re new here and knew nothing about this. Can’t you give us a break this time,” Indy’s colleague asked.

The parking officer flashed a wry smile and replied, “Sir, you’re living in Regina now!”

Survey says more Ontarians are positive about local real estate More Ontarians now have a favourable opinion of the real estate market in their local city or town, according to the Ontario Home Ownership Index, a bi-annual research study commissioned by the Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA) and conducted by Ipsos Reid.

Six out of 10 Ontarians (60 per cent) described the current residential real estate market in their city or town as ‘favourable,’ up three points from this time last year.

When asked to compare their local real estate markets to one year ago, once again Ontarians showed a positive shift in sentiment: • 41 per cent of Ontarians surveyed say they view the residential resale market in their own neighbourhood as stronger than it was a year ago (34 per cent said so last year) • 39 per cent say they view the real estate market in their city or town as stronger than it was a year ago (35 per cent last year) “What we’ve noticed with this wave of research, is that on the whole, Ontarians’ perceptions of the provincial economy and real estate market have remained stable year-over-year,” says Patricia Verge, president, OREA. “It’s when we asked Ontarians about their perceptions of their local markets – their neighbourhood or city/town – that we see a more significant change in sentiment. Naturally, Ontarians are more in tune with what their local markets are doing. This overall increase in positive sentiment therefore, is encouraging.”

When asked about their city’s future real estate market, once again Ontarians appear more optimistic than a year ago: • 40 per cent of Ontarians said that their city/town’s real estate market will

be stronger in the next year, compared to 34 per cent this time last year Looking ahead to the next ten years, 49 per cent said their city/town’s real estate market will be stronger, compared to 46 per cent this time last year “According to the research, Ontarians expect growth in local real estate markets,” says Verge. “GTA residents, for example exhibited a considerable upswing in sentiment where local real estate markets are concerned.”

These are some of the findings of an Ipsos Reid poll conducted between May 20 and 24, 2015, on behalf of the Ontario Real Estate Association. For this survey, a sample of 1,000 Ontarians from Ipsos’ Canadian online panel was interviewed online. Weighting was then employed to balance demographics to ensure that the sample’s composition reflects that of the adult population according to Census data and to provide results intended to approximate the sample universe. The precision of Ipsos online polls is measured using a credibility interval. In this case, the poll is accurate to within +/-3.5 percentage points of what the results would be had all adults in Ontario been surveyed.

The Ontario Home Ownership Index is designed to reflect Ontarians’ overall views of the residential real estate market in Ontario, and incorporates measures such as Ontarians’ perceptions of whether the market in their neighbourhood, city, and Ontario, respectively, have improved or worsened in the last year and looking ahead into the future, whether home ownership is important to them and whether it is a good investment in the long-term. The first wave of the index, conducted in the fall 2013, was set to a baseline of 100 points.

The trend measure of housing starts in Canada was 185,586 units in July compared to 184,035 in June, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). The trend is a six-month moving average of the monthly seasonally adjusted annual rates (SAAR) of housing starts.

“Housing starts in Canada have been trending higher over the past three months, with gains in multiple starts offsetting declines in single starts,” said Bob Dugan, CMHC’s chief economist.

“The decline in single starts is in line with CMHC’s expectations of buyers shifting demand away from higher priced new single-detached homes towards lower-priced alternatives. Gains in multiple starts are largely due to higher rental apartment starts, a substantial portion of which are seniors’ residences.”

CMHC uses the trend measure as a complement to the monthly SAAR of housing starts to account for considerable swings in monthly estimates and

obtain a more complete picture of the state of Canada’s housing market. In some situations analyzing only SAAR data can be misleading, as they are largely driven by the multi-unit segment of the market which can vary significantly from one month to the next.

The standalone monthly SAAR was 193,032 units in July, down from 202,338 units in June. The SAAR of urban starts decreased by 5.9 per cent in July to 176,998 units. Multi-unit urban starts decreased by 8.2 per cent to 119,478 units in July and the single-detached urban starts segment decreased slightly, by 0.8 per cent to 57,520 units.

In July, the seasonally adjusted annual rate of urban starts decreased in Ontario, the Prairies, Atlantic Canada and Québec, while it increased in British Columbia.

Rural starts were estimated at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 16,034 units.

Credit cards – the right way Manage Your Money

Obtaining a credit card today is simpler than ever; with banks, credit unions, retail stores and even grocery stores offering attractive credit card options. When used the right way, credit cards can be an effective way to build and improve your credit score, making it easier to obtain financing for other larger purchases, such as buying your first home.

On the contrary, they can also be your financial downfall if you don’t use wisely.

If you can manage spending and use your credit card responsibly, there can be a number of advantages; just be sure to follow these simple suggestions: • Select a card that meets your needs based on your income and spending habits.

• Charge only what you can pay back at the end of the month. If you are unable to completely pay off your card balance each month, always pay more than the minimum amount owing and make payments as soon as you can to reduce daily interest costs.

• Make sure you understand the features and benefits of your card. Some cards eliminate the need for separate purchase or travel protection, such as trip cancellation and interruption insurance or extended warranty protection.

• Many credit cards offer some kind of rewards program, giving you back about one percent of every dollar spent in the form of cash, points, travel reward miles, merchandise or even investments.

Although it’s not recommended to use credit cards just to earn rewards, when you use a rewards card wisely, you get features and value you don’t get with cash or debit cards.

Despite the advantages of a credit card,

Leave to others.

take caution. Using a credit card may not be right for you if: • You can’t pay your credit card balance in full and on time. If this tends to happen to you, stick with cash to avoid additional fees.

• You tend to spend more than you can afford or make impulse purchases If your monthly balance is growing, analyze your expenses and cash flow and create a plan to begin to pay down the balance. Consider paying cash or debit to limit your spending.

• You apply for more cards than you really need. Each time you apply for a credit card, reporting agencies record that action; applying for too much credit can damage your credit rating as it can appear that you are relying too heavily on credit.

• You make cash advances on your cards. Remember, you are charged interest from the day you take the advance until the day you pay it off, making it even more costly.

When used correctly, credit cards can be useful financial tools. But it’s important to remember that there are many other tools and strategies that can help you achieve all your financial objectives. Start filling your financial tool kit by talking to a professional advisor today.

It combines the cheeky wit of The Golden Girls with the heart and humour of Steel Magnolias. And Perth audiences are loving the result! Ivan Menchell’s The Cemetery Club is a comedy about three recently-widowed girlfriends living in the same Jewish community in Queens, New York. Each month they gather at the graves of their departed husbands, then head off to a deli to talk about life, love, and the old and new men in their lives. Veteran stage director Joan Sonnenburg has assembled the perfect cast for the perfect comedy, with seasoned actors Janet Rice, Jennifer Pfitzer, Barbara Kobolak, Grace Main and Grey Masson ably bringing the laughs, and the tears, to life. The Cemetery Club finishes its sevenperformance run this coming weekend with shows Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m., and a Sunday matinee, Aug. 23 at 2 p.m. Tickets are available at The Book Nook, Shadowfax, and at the door on show nights. Visit studiotheatreperth.com for details. Above, from left: veteran actors Barbara Kobolak, Janet Rice and Jenny Pfitzer in a scene from the production.

Messages help build Wall of Hope erything.”

CIBC encourages Canadians to register and fundraise for the CIBC Run for the Cure and share their photos and stories on social media using #CIBCRunfortheCure.

In addition to supporting the Wall of Hope, presented by CIBC in branches, Canadians can also share messages on a digital Wall of Hope accessible on the CIBC Community website.

“Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation is grateful to CIBC, their employees and clients across the country for their passion and commitment to our vision of a future without breast cancer,” says Jane Parsons, executive director, Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure. “Funds raised through the CIBC Run for the Cure enable CBCF to continue to fund groundbreaking breast cancer research, education and advocacy initiatives that support those affected by breast cancer and their loved ones.”

The 15,000-member Team CIBC is led by nine regional run champions across Canada passionate about creating a future without breast cancer. “I have 5 children and this event has helped them understand the importance of getting involved to do something positive in the world,” says Alison Phillips, the eastern Ontario regional run champion. “I would love it if they could grow up in a world where breast cancer no longer exists.”

The Wall of Hope decals and bracelets are limited in quantities and available at CIBC branches across the country while supplies last.

This year alone, some 25,000 Canadians will be diagnosed with breast cancer but thanks to advances in earlier detection, diagnosis and treatment, more women of all ages are living longer after a breast cancer diagnosis. As the presenting sponsor of the Wall of Hope, CIBC (TSX: CM) (NYSE: CM) invites Canadians to visit any of its 1,100 branches across the country to help build a dedicated “Wall of Hope” filled with inspirational messages to those affected by breast cancer, ahead of the 2015 Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure on Sunday, Oct. 4.

For a suggested donation of $2, anyone can add an inspirational message or honour a loved one on the in-branch Wall of Hope. Those making donations of $5 or more will receive two Hope bracelets as a token of appreciation: One to wear and one to share with someone special. All proceeds support Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation (CBCF).

“Over the nearly 20 years of CIBC’s commitment to this cause, we’ve seen how the power of hope can make a difference to the women living with breast cancer and to their loved ones,” says Christina Kramer, CIBC executive vice president, and its executive run sponsor.”

“CIBC invites everyone who has been touched by breast cancer to come out for this year’s Run and visit one of our branches to share your stories and be inspired by the messages of others,” adds Kramer. “For the one in nine women who develop breast cancer in her lifetime, your participation means ev-

dents who, we hope is going to be chosen soon. He arrived in the summer of last year with his long hair so matted he needed a full shave. He was a cute boy for a while with his naked body and some long hair left around his face.

Meanwhile his black fur has fully grown back. It’s shiny and beautiful and needs regular grooming.

It’s time for this handsome dignified young man to find his forever home.

He’s about six-years-old and gets along with some other cats too.

22ND,

dog walker showed up on a day I don’t normally see him. He told me I smelled nice and that was good, because something special was indeed going to happen. It was the day we were expecting to meet a perspective adopter. So we waited and waited and oddly, nothing happened.

Somebody was supposed to come to meet me, but for some reason, they never came. Sadly, I had been stood up.

So my dog walker and I went for a long walk. He told me: “There’ll be another time.” And that’s good…because I’m learning lots of tricks and commands. I fetch, give, sit, heel and stay very well and when you give me a treat I take it with a very soft mouth. I may lick your fingers, but you’ve absolutely no fear of me eating them!

My dog walker is currently teaching me how to ‘pray’…and I’ve almost got it. Praying is useful. What I’m praying for is that someday a forever home comes along. A home where I am loved for the gentle girl I am. A home where people respect me and love me and walk me and slowly introduce me to a life that every dog should have – and I’ve never had.

I’m praying for someone to call my name with love in their voice, someone who teaches me more tricks, someone who sees me as a willing learner…who loves to show what a clever girl I am. I

LAWS has become more involved in the community via participating in more events as well as furthering development of community programs. Examples of such developments include adult education seminars, attending the Cat Festival in Ottawa, educational booth at Festival of Maples, more raffles throughout the year, development of the cat therapy program, LAWS Paw Decals, expanding partnerships for our upcoming walkathon fundraiser, expanding satellite stores for events/donation boxes/adoption weekends not only in Lanark County but into Ottawa and re-development of the LAWS donation boxes (expansion of location from six in December 2014 to 19 in August 2015.

Area companies are shining examples of government program’s success The IEI program is anticipated to provide them with about a five per cent savings, which is important for high electrical users like the stone processing company.

“Electricity costs is the second biggest budget item after stone,” Gaudreau added. “The IEI program is a shining example of how communities, government and business can work together to build job growth and economic development.”

Larry Donaldson, Tay Valley Township CEO, noted that Omya Canada is the largest employer in the community making anything that supports their growth a positive for the township.

“It’s good news all around,” Donaldson said.

The growth of Omya Canada and Tweed Inc. demonstrate how innovative provincial programs like the Industrial Electricity Incentive (IEI) program can turn an economic challenge into a success story for local economies.

Both companies were celebrated at Omya’s Tay Valley location Aug. 10 for their successful participation in the IEI program’s newly launched third stream.

This stream was announced last year to open the program’s rebate in fixed electricity costs to companies beyond mining and big manufacturing to medium-sized companies like the Perth and Smiths Falls examples celebrated this month.

Mississauga-Streetsville MPP Bob Delaney, parliamentary assistant to the Minister of Energy, was in Perth to personally thank the companies for their positive impact on the economy and the province’s stable electrical system.

“Congratulations everyone. Well done,” Delaney said of the program.

“It’s all about jobs.”

The IEI program rebates fixed costs associated with a company’s growth plans and varies from company to company.

This year, Omya Canada will complete its transfer of a wet production line to the Tay Valley site from another Omya location. The new line has meant 12 new jobs locally and services the paper industry. Louis Gaudreau, plant manager said the Tay Valley site had lost a number of staff positions after the 2008 economic crash, but this announcement is a sign that a brighter future is ahead.

“It’s a step in the right direction,” Gaudreau said.

Bruce Linton, CEO of Tweed Inc. thanked the province and IESO for their acceptance into the Industrial Electricity Incentive program’s third stream. The program provides fixed cost rebates to companies that have or will grow.

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

Tweed Inc. Tweed Inc. has seen unprecedented growth since opening in the former Hershey chocolate shop approximately 14 months ago.

“The IEI program is really important to us. This program really does make a difference,” said Bruce Linton, CEO of Tweed Inc. of his Smiths Falls headquarters. “It gives us a reason to grow here.”

These words are music to the ears of Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow, who sees this month’s celebration of IEI funding as a way to support economies in small eastern Ontario communities like his.

In the case of Tweed Inc., Pankow said he feels the continued investment in growth will breed further business starts for the town.

“It makes the whole facility more attractive for further development. It’s very encouraging,” Pankow said.

Tweed Inc. currently occupies a small

portion of the former chocolate plant.

Since opening, Tweed Inc. has seen eight financing agreements and two acquisitions, including this past July’s purchase of Bedrocan, a Toronto-based company with origins in Holland that has been supplying clinical trials in the country for 13 years.

“These guys have a really strong medical history. I wanted it,” Linton said.

Next week the company’s shareholders will vote on the acquisition. The deal will bring Tweed Inc.’s total client base to 5,500 individuals.

Linton thanked representatives of the ministry, as well as the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO), who manages the province’s power system, for their recognition of his unique industry through their acceptance into the IEI program.

“There’s so many things ahead for the sector,” Linton said.

The program is a win-win for companies and the province. Delaney said by taking part in the IEI program, these companies helped Ontario meet its energy goals. The province has had excess capacity in its electrical system since 2008 when Ontario began loosing many manufacturing companies. The IEI program helps to use up this capacity and maintain Ontario’s electrical system, while supporting local economies. Stephen Nurbaul, manager of development energy procurement at IESO said the IEI program has added two terawatt hours into the province’s 140-terawatt system.

Nurbaul confirmed all three streams of the IEI program are closed until continued funding is announced.

Omya Canada and Tweed Inc. are two of 15 approved applicants in the third stream of last year’s IEI program.

Funding supports Foster Ave work Staff

Critical infrastructure along Foster Avenue will be renewed this year thanked to a multi-government funding program.

It was recently announced that Smiths Falls received monies through the Small Communities Fund to complete installation of new sanitary and storm sewers, as well as an upgrade to the water main on Foster Avenue. The funding is a one-third agreement with the federal government, provincial government and the town coming to the table to cover an estimated $715,000 project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Small communities are the backbone of the province, and we know projects like these are key to creating good jobs, growing the economy, and building a safe environment,â&#x20AC;? said Brad Duguid, Minister of Economic Development, Employment and Infrastructure.

The Foster Avenue work was listed as a priority in the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s established Asset Management Plan, which sets out a guide for the town in planning future infrastructure upgrades. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was the proposed project for 2015,â&#x20AC;? said Lynda McKimm, town manager.

The hope is this work will increase efficiency and reliability, improve fire protection, and reduce water leakage. The work is hoped to also reduce the amount of treated water at the municipal plant by separating the storm and sanitary sewer lines.

The existing pipes are combined and date back to the 1950s.

Town staff is currently working on drafting a tender document, which they could go out as early as next week. Before work can begin the town must receive Environmental Compliance Approval from the Ministry of the Environment because the work deals with a water system.

Proudly flying their flag Bill Ottney, volunteer with the Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario was proud to hoist the museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flag for the first time in history Aug. 18. The moment was roughly 20 years in the making as plans to purchase a museum flag have been in the books for two decades. A generous donation from Ottney and John Weir made it happen.

Stacey Roy/METROLAND

Matthew Carkner enjoyed turning the furrow over in his family’s antique tractor Aug. 15 at the Lanark County Plowing Match held outside of Smiths Falls at the home of Bill Macpherson.

From front page

“It’s something that I wouldn’t have done on a regular day, but I figured just hit it straight down the fairway and get it on… ended up making a birdie which was even better,” she said.

Brooke said she had a different mind set this time around.

“All I can say is my attitude was just much different, and I demanded a lot more of myself than I did three or four months ago.

Until now, Brooke has played LPGA tournaments as a non-member either through sponsors’ exemptions or Monday qualifiers. The Portland Open was no exception. On Monday, Aug. 10, she won the qualifying tournament with a 68 (-4) just to get into the field. She then opened with a 66 (-6) on Thursday, Aug. 13, and claimed the outright lead by the end of the second round on Friday. She never looked back.

She earns US$195,000 as the Cambia Portland Classic champion, pushing her season earnings more than US$660,000. With this first win under her belt, Brooke could be granted her card by the LPGA for the remainder of the season, but she had not decided whether or not to petition the tour as of Tuesday.

“The cheer on 17 and the cheer on 18 were something that I never really experienced before,” Brooke said, after being doused by water and faux champagne. “And it’s definitely something I’ll remember.”

Brooke is the first Canadian winner since Lorie Kane and she commented on that. “…I think Canadian golf is really growing, and there’s a lot of great players coming up.

But to get that and for Canadian fans and Canadian support that I’ve received over the last couple months and last couple years is unbelievable, so I’m happy to bring one home for Canada.”

Both Brooke and her sister Brittany Hender-

son (who also participated at Portland) are now headed to the Canadian Women’s Open in Vancouver, BC, Aug. 17 to 23.

It will be a bit of celebration for the young Canadian golfer and it “may be a fun car ride” as she and her family head to Vancouver.

“For sure,” she said of the celebratory time that awaits her in Canada. “It will be awesome to be back with all that Canadian support. That was my first LPGA tournament three years ago.

It will be nice… lots of great memories.”

Thanks to this tournament win, Brooke has secured her LPGA card for 2016. When asked if she was motivated when the commissioner told her no for petitioning for Q-school, she had this to say: “…I think honestly it was the best thing that could have happened to me. It made me work really hard and be really dedicated and really focused. It made me really realize what I really wanted in life and what I really desired, and I think it was the best thing that could have happened.”

Recent trip abroad teaches students more than facts of war Stacey Roy

sroy@perfprint.ca

A summer trip to the Netherlands battlefields served as a real education for five local students.

Their meeting with people in the towns and cities led them to the realization that the perspective found in many Canadian textbooks or media is only half the story.

Each student who took part in the two-week trip from July 5 to 19 were tasked with researching a Second World War soldier, as well as a Canadian soldier who died on the Netherlands’ battlefields.

“We got to go to their grave and we got to read it to them. The way people presented them was all different,” said Emily Doyle, one of five Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute (SFDCI) students who traveled to the European country for a history exposure trip.

Karter Kok was able to look into the eyes of his soldier for the first time through this trip abroad. His research in Canada did not yield a picture of his soldier, but he did find one in a Netherlands’ museum.

SFDCI’s history class focused on the Netherlands this year to mark the country’s 70th anniversary of liberation from the war, but it was also an opportunity to encourage students to ask their own questions and come up with their perspective on historic events. Canadian

Participating students and teachers who took part in the summer trip to the Netherlands are shown above at a holocaust memorial in Apeldoorn. textbooks gloss over the Netherlands’ battles even though it was an eightmonth conflict that killed thousands of Canadians.

“Dieppe is a drop in the bucket compared to the Netherlands,” said Blake Seward, SFDCI history teacher who helped to guide students through the trip.

The students travelled with high school teachers as well as a group of

University of New Brunswick professors who specialize in historic fields.

Students said at first they were nervous to express their points of view in front of so many educators, but now have formed relationships with many on the trip. Not only did this experience help them get over their fear of presenting to an audience, it showed them that their thoughts on subjects matter. For some, it was the first time they really felt lis-

tened to.

“We have something to say. We are the future of this nation so please listen to us,” said Doyle.

Students ended up being educators to the academics in their own way as it was the first time professors at the University of New Brunswick had incorporated a youth perspective during their teaching colleague experience.

“Bringing the students along was a game changer for us and the teachers,” added Cindy Brown, a professor in the history department of the University of New Brunswick. “It opened our eyes to the potential history has to play in not only the classroom but also beyond it.”

At each stop on the trip students were challenged to ask whose voice was missing, what central message was this site trying to get across and how did it add to or change their opinions of the history they are learning. This type of personaldriven education served to empower each student to be active participants in their education and learn in a meaningful way so that what it is absorbed rather than just memorized for the length of an examination.

“You have total control. It’s what you make it,” said Connor Halpenny, a participating student who will be entering Grade 11 this fall.

Other students found a passion for learning through this process they didn’t realize they had and a power within themselves to formulate their own opin-

ions and seek out different points of view to find the truth.

“One of the biggest parts of the trip is seeing perspective,” Halpenny said.

Students learned from local historians how the Netherlands people were divided among those who sympathized with the Nazis and saw economic prosperity through their control, those who were more passive, and those who resisted.

Contrary to many Canadian textbooks, students learned that the Canadian soldiers were not all welcomed as liberators.

“The allies dropped more bombs on Rotterdam than the Germans did,” Kok said.

Many museums displayed Hitlerthemed toys and experiences rather than static displays. One museum had a large touch screen table that took visitors through an air raid complete with sounds and vibration from the falling bombs.

“I stopped breathing it was so realistic,” Doyle said.

The students also toured a village that was preserved to show how civilians lived during the war. Throughout their trip the students had an opportunity to live some elements of war life through diet. Students learned about the hunger winter in the Netherlands in 1944-45 when the Germans cut off access to supplies to the civilian population.

“One day we actually only ate the rations that a normal adult” would have, Halpenny said.

“Me and Maryn [Hendry] stole a carrot,” Doyle recalls.

That day’s ration included half of a raw potato, a cube of spam meat and a small piece of baguette.

“Everything we do is purposeful and educational,” adds Seward. “We’re getting the kids to try to walk in those shoes for a while.”

The concept of exercises like this is to have students see the war from as many perspectives as possible since everyone who participates in or lives through a war sees things differently. Being able to think critically and ask the questions from the perspectives missing is a lesson that can be ap-

plied to any real world situation.

“These questions connect to many of the issues they see and hear on the news on a daily basis.

These tours, therefore, help prepare young Canadians for the realities of the modern world,” Brown said.

Each day students were asked to write a blog about their experiences, which have been uploaded to a website (warandthecanadianexperience.weebly.com). Seward hopes the students’ work will help inform future history classes in Canada and encourage experience learning that can be done in the classroom as well as on a trip. Seward points to the local library and cenotaphs as prime examples where real experience learning can be done to understand what past societies held dear.

“Our curriculum asks us to do this. We don’t do

it very well,” Seward said.

He argues great marks in school come easier when it’s based on critical thinking principles rather than traditional teaching styles. In this way, students are taught to be future leaders and thinkers in our society.

“History is not about the past. We can use history as part of our training for understanding citizenship, values and beliefs,” Seward said.

Next year, Seward’s class will continue their work on completing biographies of Canadian soldiers who fought at Vimy Ridge. He and a partnership of other schools are working to meet a March 2017 deadline where over 3,000 soldiers’ biographies aim to be completed in time for the 100th anniversary of Canada taking the ridge. Seward said next year’s exposure trip will take selected students

back to the battlefields of France and Belgium.

For many youth participants this year, the Netherlands’ trip was the first time they had travelled to Europe, so exposure to their way of life was very much enjoyed by all who are now hoping to continue travelling in the future. The majority of those who took part in this year’s trip plan to return to history class next year.

“We’re praying that we get Mr. Seward,” said Sydney Carroll.

His dedication to inspiring students to find their own truth and become active stewards of history has left a lasting impression on his students who will shortly be moving into the next phase of their education and lives.

“I hope one day I can be as passionate about my job as he is,” Doyle said.

Arts Council hears of emerging needs during strategic planning process Stacey Roy

sroy@perfprint.ca

who have found success in the arts by establishing a career day of sorts where information can be shared.

“There’s lots of careers alive and in the arts they might not have thought about,” McLean-Knapp said.

The idea of keeping a database of local artistic mentors did receive support around the room this month, but the challenge for the arts council and any volunteer-driven organization is the time it takes to maintain it.

“Certainly that is something that has to be maintained,” Ashby added.

“Volunteers can only do so much.”

The arts council executive feels there is a need for dedicated and ongoing funding for the council for it to continue. This would help fund the many projects the council could take on in the community, as well as hire a part-time staff member for the organization. Ashby noted the council does gratefully receive $2,500 a year from the Town of Smiths Falls, which largely goes to covering liability coverage for council directors.

“There isn’t any organization who can work without funding,” said Lynda Daniluk, council board member.

“Any kind of significant funds, particularly from the municipal level, can be lever-

aged,” Ashby added.

The discussion around how the council could fund future work was touched upon as one of several talking points of the night. The usual suggestions of memberships, grants and fundraising came up with the idea to host a fundraising dinner with silent auction featuring local artist’s work might be a great way to raise funds and remove the need for memberships.

“You have the luxury of working with some of the most creative people in this town,” Glenn said.

Coville suggested funds and donations might be easier to find if the council had a physical presence in town in the form of a storefront. Glenn noted the Station Theatre did this in the early days of fundraising by setting up in vacant storefront offered to them for free by property owners. Not only did the space help increase their presence in town, it often sold the vacant business space.

“They didn’t know where to give money to or how to help until that was there,” said Susan Newport.

The Smiths Falls Arts and Culture Council will be reviewing all feedback given to them and turn it into a summary, which they will use to continue their work on developing their new Strategic Plan.

A new terminology, approach and means of engagement in the arts were all items up for discussion during the Smiths Falls Arts and Culture Council’s recent strategic planning session.

The meeting was held Aug. 5 at a Russell Street café and aimed to craft a refined focus for the four-year old council.

“We’re looking for relevancy in the community because the more relevancy in the community the more the community will get behind the arts council,” said Zoe Ashby, council president.

A good part of the discussion surrounded the need to make arts in all its forms accessible to as many local residents as possible.

Amber Coville, town staff member who organizers many local events, noted the importance of having experiences in the arts at different price points, which can be best achieved by increasing the diversity of events locally.

“It would be nice to see more cultural festival experiences,” Coville said.

Suggestions such as using existing infrastructure (under bridges, blank walls in the downtown core, etc.) as open canvasses for local artwork were all thrown out as something to consider. Some communities have set aside a certain amount of time that the particular art can be displayed before it is removed and another artist is given the blank canvas to transform. The point was also made that an eye to maintenance of existing artwork in town needs to be considered and planned for in the future.

Other ways the evening’s participants felt they could bring art to the people is through pop-up storefronts. The concept is to allow an artist the use of vacant storefront space during the summer ENERGY TIP! months in exchange for assistance in Avoid washing dishes in hot running water. Fill the improving the look of the façade. sink halfway, and then scrub away.

“I thought it would be a great way to fill up the storefront space in Smiths Falls,” said Eleanor Glenn.

The challenge is gaining consent from property owners for a downtownwide program.

Youth involvement Current members of the creative community also touched on the need to engage the next generation in new and unique ways. Coville noted many youths don’t identify with the terms arts and culture, but would instead think of Etsy or Pinterest, which are both online entities that promote arts and culture ideas and projects to a world-wide audience.

“That’s something to explore,” Coville said.

Part of the formula to engaging youth may be to recognizing our youth of yesterday. Sarah McLean-Knapp is a professional in the arts field and has returned home after many years working away. She suggested tapping into past local high school graduates like herself

Moore and the Heritage House Museum for this fantastic heritage image dating back to 1889 when Smiths Falls celebrated the 199th Anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne. Many came out to mark this historic event, which took place in Ireland in 1690 when the forces of King William of Orange defeated the Catholic King James.

Letter to the Editor

Road name elimination should go smoothly DEAR EDITOR:

The letter from Paula Banks re: duplicate road names appears to confuse what has actually been proposed with a wholly different issue which is currently not on the table. I assume she is responding to the Notice of Public Meeting Regarding Duplicate “R”, “O” and “B Private Road Names published by the Township of Rideau Lakes.

As the notice indicates, the consideration relates to duplicate road names that resulted from the provincially mandated merger of municipalities. According to municipal officials, there are only 15 duplicate roads in the township.

I live on R10 off Briton-Houghton Bay road.

There is however another R10 near Rideau Ferry. My family and our neighbours have been told by different cou-

riers and transportation firms that they were confused by the duplicate road names and delayed in arriving at the proper residence.

When canvassed by township officials, Bell 911, Canada Post, United Counties of Leeds and Grenville, ambulance, OPP-Dispatch, and fire department, all supported elimination of duplicate road names.

All members of our road association (seasonal and permanent) unanimously agreed they have concerns for safety in the event that emergency services (fire, police, paramedics, hydro) are delayed providing service to families on our road.

They also agreed that we would petition the township to allow the road name to be changed to avoid confusion and delayed service in emergencies.

Her question about first responders

being confused with a name change to what has been a duplicate road is puzzling. I have every confidence that once a duplicate road name is changed, this will be communicated to all first response organizations operating in the municipality and they will be able to efficiently update their records. Her question as to why the duplicate road names have not been addressed in the past is not very helpful when the township has ample evidence there are risks and problems associated with those duplicate road names now. Her suggestion that it will somehow cost the township $86,000 and 1.5 per cent property tax hike to eliminate the 15 duplicate road names is just not credible.

have the best job in the world. I get to spend my days talking to different people, learning their stories and then sharing them with others. Really, my job is all about continued learning in the world around me, so it didn’t surprise me much when some of the people I have met over the years started talking about the concept of un-schooling.

This is basically about the power of life’s experiences serving as the teacher rather than the traditional institution. There are local families who live this model with their children and now there are educators who are beginning to talk about the value of experiential learning inside or outside of the classroom.

Blake Seward is one of the best teachers I have met. Like his students, I can feel his passion for his work, and it is infectious. He reminds me of a high school teacher I once had, who, like Mr. Seward, challenged us to form our own opinions and be active participants in class.

It helped that this was in my religion class and later in a business English class, but I think Mr. Seward takes this concept to a new and highly valuable level in his history class. The highly successful Lest We Forget program was developed right here in Smiths Falls as a way to lift history out of the textbook and make it real to high school students. This has evolved into annual trips to battlefield sites where students take their research papers on individual soldiers and see with their own eyes the environment where their soldier lived and died.

There is a common denominator with all the students I speak to after their travels – they have a passion for history I have never seen at the high school level and a desire to take their education by the reins and actively steer it toward their future.

As a parent, I can’t ask for more than that!

Sadly, my children still have many years before they will be able to sit in Mr. Seward’s class, but I like to think I am doing my small part to prepare them for a life of engaged life-long learning. When visiting museums I try and explain to the kids what the message of each experience is. With my youngest, it’s

all about learning through the senses so the Ontario Science Centre, Museum of Civilizations and virtually every local festival and fair in the area has become a common stomping ground for us. Another favourite haunt that I highly recommend for the family on a budget (as we are) are the county museums that are throughout the region.

Their collections are incredible and something you won’t see anywhere else.

As an added bonus, many of the volunteers and curators are willing to elaborate on their exhibits and engage kids at their level. Some museums that may not come to mind as child friendly stops include the Middleville and District Museum (they have a cabin inside the museum that the kids can walk into), the Lanark and District Museum (my girls really liked the medicine bottles and old shop in the basement). These are in addition to the obvious: Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario, Heritage House Museum and the Mill of Kintail Conservation Area, but it goes without saying that there is something special about every museum. The great thing about these stops is the entry fee is reasonable and it is an entire afternoon of fun!

All of this is to say I am a firm believer in Mr. Seward’s approach to learning – put students in a place armed with questions and the freedom to follow their learning at their own pace they will do just that. There are free places to go to do this as well.

Our local library in Smiths Falls is a great place to learn more about cultural symbols, architecture and what they mean to a community. Walk around a cemetery and find out about the symbolism of death and what the traditions say about society at that time. I learned about the son who was the hope of the family, but never made it home from war and the pain of losing a child at the Wood’s Mausoleum. The list is endless. In some ways, I think we have all become students of Mr. Seward.

See you at the Harvard plane in Victoria Park!

In a few short weeks, kids will be returning to school after the summer break. Along with new clothes, most will return with a new backpack tossed over their shoulder, stuffed with school supplies, as they prepare for a new year at school. Unfortunately, not all families are able to afford this traditional purchase.

3M Canada, including London and the local Perth plants, are running a Backpack Drive to collect school supplies for local kids through United Way Lanark County.

“3M Perth has been a leader in many of our campaigns, contributing through payroll deductions and corporate donations,” says Kate Hallas, fund development officer for United Way Lanark County. “They make a huge difference in our community and we couldn’t do it without them. We’re so excited for their continued involvement through a new initiative that will have such a great impact here in Lanark County.”

The goal of the Backpack Drive is to provide children with tools that will enable them to be successful and independent – regardless of their current circumstances. This drive will give those children the tools they need to succeed.

Employees from 3M will be donating supplies and cash to the drive, and invites the public to participate as well. “Everyone here at 3M is really excited about this initiative and what it will mean to many families in our community,” says Vicki Keuninckx, plant manager at 3M Perth. “With all of the added costs and pressures on families today, every little bit helps and ensures that students are prepared for learning.”

The following locations will accept donations of new backpacks and unopened items from the community: • 3M Perth (2 Craig Street, Perth) – Please place in the large recycle bin with signage by the visitors parking lot at building 301; • United Way Lanark County (15 Bates Drive, Carleton Place); • YAK Youth Centre (1 Sherbrooke Street East, Perth); • Lanark Highlands Youth Centre (61 Princess Street, Lanark); • Carleton Place & District Youth Centre (360 Edmund Street, Carleton Place); • Smiths Falls & District Centre for Youth (41 Main Street West, Smiths Falls); and,

There are drop off locations throughout the area, including at several youth centres in Lanark County.

• Almonte Summer Youth Centre (182 Bridge Street, Almonte – Curling Club).

“We will be working with Connections and their Back To School Program to distribute the supplies,” says Hallas.

Dating back to 2002, the program has grown as more and more people identified the need for support with school supplies.

Requests are receive by Connections, Lanark Community Programs, Family & Children’s Services, and self-referrals from individuals throughout Lanark County. The program provides supplies for children in Junior Kindergarten through Grade 12.

“Connections runs this program with a very limited budget, receiving donations from local service clubs and businesses however this support is still not enough to cover their expenditures with such great need,” adds Hallas. “Last year, 330 children benefitted from this program in Lanark County while some requests still had to be turned down. We want to ensure that everyone in need is taken care of.”

Other organizations, such as the five youth centres in Lanark

County will also distribute the collected items to children in need.

What to Donate The drive needs new backpacks and unopened supplies for children in Junior Kindergarten through to Grade 12.

Back To School Kits include: A backpack, lunch bag, sandwich and snack containers, large Ziploc bags, bow wax crayons (24), pencil case, pencil crayons with sharpener (24 pack), markers (12 pack), pencils (5), blue pens (5), 2” binder, highlighters, lined paper and large glue sticks.

We also appreciate cash or gift cards to local stores, which we will use to complete the kits with the necessary items.

The drive will run until Friday, August 28th. Help children start their school year off right, confident and ready to learn.

Harry the heron is not a happy bird DEAR EDITOR:

“Harry the Heron is not happy! He was photographed this past weekend, during an incredible heat wave, trying to walk through the footpaths in the basin. He was making good progress until he ran into a big fence at the end of one of the bridges.

When contacted for an interview, on his “shell” phone, Harry had this to say…

“OK, I’ve had enough! I moved to Smiths Falls this spring because I heard it was a great place for herons. You’re allowed to live downtown, and no one bugs you (except for all the Canada geese... try stepping around all the stuff they drop!)

I like to hang around in the basin... Hydro Park... the beach... the Murphy building. And, when it’s too hot to fly, like today, I try to take a leisurely stroll through those little islands in the basin on the footpaths that should be available to every species, not just us herons. Nice way to get

What’s up with that? I gather from talking to folks in the park that it’s been like that for a few years.

“Time for action. If the town can’t afford to make those footpaths and bridges safe and accessible to every species I’m going

to apply for a grant. I can probably get big bucks from the Ministry of Natural Resources under the Protected Species Act. If that doesn’t work for some reason I’m going to call in Greenpeace, and maybe even Herons Unlimited, and raise a big stink! This is not acceptable.”

Backpack program kicks off for local school children

Staff

On Thursday, Aug. 27 four Canadian Forces veterans will be making their way to Cenotaph Park on Beckwith Street for a 10 a.m. service to honour the past and put a face to today’s younger veterans who continue to need our support and respect.

Members of the public are welcome to come out and meet the riders and horses at the cenotaph, or stop by their administrative camp at the Lombardy Fairgrounds Aug. 25 and 26.

“They welcome people to come out and visit with them,” said Ray Ellison, organizer of the Kingston to Ottawa segment of the ride.

The Ride Across Canada hopes to encourage a discussion across the country around how communities can support their veterans, while advocating for veterans to tell their stories and bring about awareness of the need for continued services.

“As a veteran who has been under fire and struggled to make the transition to civilian life, I

know how lonely it can be making a home in a community that doesn’t recognize a contemporary veteran,” said Paul Nichols, a veteran with the Calgary Highlanders who has established the ride with his wife.

Their hope is to record participating veteran’s stories and make them accessible to the nation.

The brief Smiths Falls stop is part of Nichols’ nation-wide Ride Across Canada campaign that began from Victoria, British Columbia April 13 and will travel 220 days to St. John’s Newfoundland.

From page 28

Actor meets new challenges in festival’s Wait Until Dark production While actors take on a variety of roles in their careers, some of the most challenging involve making real something they have never experienced. In the case of the Classic Theatre Festival’s thriller Wait Until Dark (running until Aug. 30), Ottawa-born performer Alison Smyth conducted significant research in preparation for her role as the blind woman, Susy Hendrix, who must defend herself after criminals have invaded her home.

It’s certainly paid off as both audiences and critics have responded warmly to Smyth’s portrayal. Indeed, one of Canada’s pre-eminent theatre critics, Jamie Portman of the Capital Critics Circle, enthused last week, “As for Alison Smyth’s portrayal of the blind Susy, it’s excellent – and we’re not just talking about believable body language here. As a character study, it seems entirely credible. This Susy may be prone to frustration and even anger – in one key confrontation with (nine-yearold) Gloria, she displays a short fuse – but there’s no despair or self-pity. Instead she’s driven by a formidable determination and resilience – and when the crunch comes, she has the intelligence and will to defend herself in every way possible.”

That fierce determination and spark might describe Smyth herself, an energetic performer who began dressing up at the age of three because she, like many a performer, was entranced by the world of storytelling. Her parents put her into dancing and singing, playing piano and school choirs. Her first stage role was in Annie

at the Ottawa-based Company of Musical Theatre. After many appearances in the Kiwanis Music Festival, Smyth was accepted at the Glenn Gould School at Toronto’s Royal Conservatory. It looked like she was headed for a career in opera, but she left school after a successful audition for the hit musical Hairspray with Mirvish Productions.

The following 11 years have seen her perform in many a high-profile musical and play, including Evil Dead: The Musical, Jersey Boys (for which she won a Broadwayworld.com nod as best featured female performer), Test Drive, Anne of Green Gables – The Musical (at the Charlottetown Festival), Hilda’s Yard, and Head À Tête.

Wait Until Dark posed a unique challenge, and so the hard-working Smyth hit the books to study what it would be like to have lost her sight.

“I looked into the nervous system damage that causes blindness in car accidents.

Then I had an experience in a blind restaurant in Toronto called Noir. I ordered my meal and then when you go in, it’s just like they say, when all your sight’s gone, your hearing is amplified. I could hear people talking, the dishes, but I had a little freakout, wondering what would happen if there is an emergency and I can’t see where I’m going, so I had to leave the restaurant.”

Determined, like her character, to keep trying, Smyth “went to the basement cellar in my apartment building, and when

with blindness.”

Playwright Knott, who also penned last summer’s Dial M for Murder at the Classic Theatre Festival, was a rare individual for his time, who featured strong women who had to fight, literally, for their lives.

For Smyth, the arc of Susy’s story is about self-empowerment, a concept close to her heart and an event in which she played a major role this year, G-Day for Girls.

G-Day is a global phenomenon that pairs girls with “Champions” (parents/ guardians and others playing a meaningful role in supporting girls’ futures) as a means of helping young women transition from childhood into adolescence. Smyth sees this time period as a grey area that is not talked about as much as it should be, often resulting in unhappy times for girls who are struggling to develop a strong sense of self.

Following Wait Until Dark, Smyth returns to her home in Toronto, where, in addition to her work as a yogini, director, and teacher, she will conduct a set of master classes with a company she co-founded, the Toronto Talent Intensive.

In the meantime, she looks forward to continuing the emotional journey she travels eight times a week in Wait Until Dark, which runs until Aug. 30, Wednesday to Sunday at 2 p.m., with 8 p.m. shows Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. Tickets are available at www.classictheatre.ca or 1-877-283-1283.

1937 Buick Roadmaster at Canadian Automotive Museum A 1937 Buick Roadmaster convertible phaeton is currently on display at the Canadian Automotive Museum located at 99 Simcoe St. S. in Oshawa. Displayed with the car is this information: “During the 1890s, David Dunbar Buick began experimenting with internal combustion engines. He had made a fortune in the plumbing business with the invention for permanently coating cast iron with enamel which allowed the production of ‘white’ bathtubs at lower cost, which is still in use today. Like Henry Ford, he started three successive companies to produce cars, only the third of which was successful and became the Buick Motor Company. William C. Durant gained control of the company and used it as a platform to build General Motors.

“For 1937, Buick built four models: The Special Series 40, the Century Series 60, the Roadmaster Series 80, and the Limited Series 90. Our feature car was recently donated to the museum. It is believed only 27 of this model have survived worldwide.”

Wondering if the car at the museum is the same 1937 Buick Roadmaster convertible phaeton I remember being owned years ago by Bob James of Whitby, Ontario, I contacted Alan Willison of Oshawa for help. Alan owns a very rare 1937 McLaughlin-Buick Roadmaster phaeton built in Oshawa and slated for restoration. He confirmed the

car at the museum was indeed owned by Bob James and gave me Bob’s phone number.

I phoned Bob right away. He purchased the car around 1971 in Buffalo, N.Y. It was in primer and needed a lot of work. Over the years, he rounded up many rare NOS (new old stock) parts to aid in its restoration, including a brand new front fender.

He found a new centre section for the grille in Hershey, PA. He also bought new tires and rims and had the grille and bumpers rechromed.

During much of this time, the car was stored in Ron Fawcett’s barn north of Whitby.

Bob sold the car around 2002 to Dan Bell of Oshawa, who restored it and later donated it to

the museum. During the restoration, Dan found a brand new rear fender for the car. A total of 1,155 of these cars with Buick’s 320 cubic inch straight eight engine were built in the U.S. and 115 in Oshawa. The car in the museum has Body #404.

This car and more than 70 others await your viewing pleasure at the Canadian Automotive Museum at 99 Simcoe St. South in Oshawa. Phone 905-5761222 for information or visit their website at www.CanadianAutomotiveMuseum.com.

I’m always looking for more stories. Email billtsherk@sympatico.ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, Ont. N8H 3W2. Everyone whose story is published in my column will receive a free autographed copy of my book: “OLD CAR DETECTIVE FAVOURITE STORIES, 1925 to 1965.”

BULLOCK, Steven Wayne – In memory of a dear son, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, husband and father, who passed away August 22, 2012.

Our lives go on without you; And nothing is the same, We have to hide our heartache, When someone speaks your name.

Sad are the hearts that love you, Silent the tears that fall, Living our lives without you, Is the hardest part of all.

You did so many things for all of us, Your heart was kind and true, And when we needed someone, We could always count on you.

Those special years will not return, When we were all together.

But with the love within our hearts, You will walk with us forever.

Love and missing you always.

MARTIN, William Henry, August 25, 1933-2013.

Death changes everything! Time changes nothing...

We still miss the sound of your voice, the wisdom in your advice, the stories of your life and just being with you.

So no, time changes nothing.

We miss you as much today as we did the day you died.

We just miss you.

Mormon volunteers produce 300,000 life-saving meals

R0013248731_0430

On Aug.13 and 14, approximately 700 youth from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (nicknamed the Mormon church) from across Ontario volunteered to feed thousands of starving children in the developing world. Through a partnership between the church and Feed My Starving Children (FMSC), volunteers prepared 300,000 life-saving meals at this firstever FMSC MobilePack event in Canada. The event took place on the University of Waterloo campus.

Cassie Graham, 15, represented Smiths Falls as a volunteer at the ‘Feed My Starving Children’ event held in Waterloo this week.

“It was actually really amazing. I looked around and there were about 350 youth participating on the day I was there,” she said.

Graham was in the senior group and her table alone filled 38 boxes with 36 packages in each box. All their meals were being sent to Haiti.

“It’s the perfect partnership,” said Brad Taylor, church leader. “Our youth are strongly oriented toward giving service, and FMSC has perfectly organized the work to make the most of our volunteer efforts.”

But Mormon youth didn’t do it alone. They reached out to the inter-faith community of the Kitchener/Waterloo area, who combined to add an additional shift of 350 volunteers for this effort.

“We never could have done it without our friends from almost every church in the Kitchener/Waterloo area,” said Charity Fleming, volunteer director for the effort.

While FMSC has been running volunteer mobile pack events like this for nearly 30 years, this was the first time they had ever held an event in Canada and Cassie’s group were told that there were 70 more youth participating here than they had ever had anywhere be-

A partnership between the Mormon Church, General Mills, Inc. and FMSC combined to make it happen. Our church partnered with FMSC for years in the US, and we were anxious to do the same here in Canada. General Mills made it all possible with a generous donation that enabled FMSC to get here” said Taylor.

Graham added: “It was a totally amazing experience. When I was looking at what we had done, it was just mind-blowing.”

Supreme Court Beheaded By Boneheaded Politicians How can you learn to become a hypocrite? It’s easy. Take a course in Politics 101, then get elected to parliament. This will make it easy to postpone matters that demand instant attention. There’s no better example of hypocrisy than parliament’s move to delay implementation of the Supreme Court’s decision on Assisted Death until after the election.

The Harper government has added insult to injury by stacking the consultation panel with those opposed to assisted death. It’s like Dr. Gifford-Jones putting the fox in charge of the hens, an inhumane despicable act for those crying out for help to end their suffering.

In February, The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that assisted death should be an option for those grievously and irremediably ill, and who wished to end their suffering with the help of a physician. The justices gave the government a year to implement the law. It’s taken the government five months just to form the panel. And there’s no doubt opponents of assisted death will make the guidelines unwieldy and restrictive. The wisdom of The Supreme Court will end up being beheaded by boneheaded politicians.

Past surveys have shown that the majority of Canadians fear a lingering painful death devoid of dignity. This entire issue boils down to personal choice for those who wish it. So far no political party has grasped the fact that supporting assisted dying could help them win an election.

Dying with Dignity Canada (DWDC), says “We receive calls from people who are desperately ill, know it’s a matter of time before they die, and ask if there’s a legal way to end their life peacefully”. These people are suffering from multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, paralysis from a stroke or motor vehicle accident and other terminal illnesses.

Studies from U.S states and other countries that allow assisted death show that relatively few with terminal illness eventually ask for it. Rather, it is comforting for them just to know it is available.

It’s regrettable that only 12 percent of callers in the DWDC study said they had the support of their family doctor. Or that when assisted death was mentioned, the doctor did not listen and changed the subject.

Today, the Criminal Code states that neither DWDC, nor this journalist, can advise people on how to end their lives. But it is heart breaking when callers ask how they can obtain drugs for this purpose and none are available without a physician’s prescription. What doctor is going to give one and go to jail?

Other desperate people even ask how they can obtain the “exit bag” that’s placed over their head and connected to a helium tank. It’s hard to imagine such a terminal scene for one’s last minutes with family members.

I’ve stressed for years that those wanting an assisted death should have the right to form their own committee. Mine would include my wife, children and my doctor who are aware of my wishes. I’d also be pleased to add a veterinarian who would treat me the same way he would ease the suffering of a beloved dog.

This political hypocrisy could end by drowning politicians with mail. Years ago I delivered 40,000 letters to Ottawa which helped to legalize heroin for terminal cancer patients. Believe me, politicians fear adverse mail.

If you agree with assisted death, send a one sentence letter (better than an e-mail, and postage free) to Stephen Harper, 24 Sussex Drive, Ottawa, demanding action on this legislation. Or send an e-mail to Stephen.harper@parl.gc.ca This column was sent to Harper, Trudeau and Mulcair but all I’ve received were the usual sitting-on-the fence replies.

Those who oppose assisted death have every right to end their lives in whatever way they wish. But they do not have the right to impose their moral, religious or ethical views on others.

The law is the law.

I’d appreciate your opinion.

For the Love of Lustre exhibit on at museum

Jennifer Westendorp/METROLAND

Looking for something to do this summer? Drop into the Heritage House Museum and take a look at its current special exhibition, “For the Love of Lustre.” Until Oct. 18, visit the museum to view over 200 highly sought after pieces of Lustre Ware porcelain and ironstone.

These rare pieces of china are a part of local collector, Bill Dobson’s private collection. The museum is showcasing Dobson’s highest quality pieces from the 19th century in pink, copper, silver, and white glazes.

Designed by potters in the Sunderland District of England, Lustre Ware

is known for its distinctive iridescent metallic glazes. Each piece features a unique hand painted or printed design and its lustrous appearance sets it apart from other pieces of fine china. In the 19th century, Lustre Ware was imported from the Sunderland District into Toronto, Quebec City, and the East Coast.

Unfortunately, on the lengthy and rough journey to Canada, many ships carrying the delicate china were lost at sea or arrived carrying damaged goods. Dobson’s collection should not only be admired for its beauty, but also for its remarkable voyage to Canada many years ago.

Drop in to the Heritage House Museum between 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. to view Dobson’s beautiful collection, take a tour through the Victorian style home, and stroll through the gardens. The museum, located at 11 Old Sly’s Road in Smiths Falls, is open seven days a week until Oct. 18. For more information about the new “For the Love of Lustre” exhibition or the museum, call 613283-6311, visit www.smithsfalls.ca/ heritagehouse, or “Like” the museum’s Facebook page.

Merrickville Fire Chief Bob Foster stands beside the bush truck, used to respond to off-road calls, such as on trails in the area.

Jennifer Westendorp jwestendorp@perfprint.ca

The Merrickville Fire Department (MFD) is trying to raise funds to turn its bush truck into a year-round response vehicle for off-road calls.

“We acquired the bush truck about two years ago,” said Chief Bob Foster.

“It’s a used vehicle and we’ve been customizing it as we go.”

Currently, the bush truck, which is four-wheel drive, features a skid unit for fighting grass and brush fires, and a stretcher.

“We’ve been able to build it up slowly,” said Foster. “We want to put a winch and push bar on the front end.”

He explained the real need for the bush truck is to raise the platform in the box, to be able to store hoses and tools.

“For the winter time, we want to take the skid unit off, put a cap over the box, a heater in the back, and a stretcher,” said Foster.

Those modifications will make the bush truck compatible for winter, when the trails surrounding Merrickville, including Scotchline, became a popular route for snowmobilers.

“So we’ll have year-round capability for off-road response,” said Foster.

He said the trails surrounding Merrickville see heavy traffic in the winter and the MFD has to be ready to deal with any emergencies.

“The trails here are well used and increasingly so,” said Foster. “So we need to be prepared.”

The bush truck carries one ton of water, in a welded plastic tank. It also features a medical response kit.

The idea for a bush truck came following a series of grass fires in 2012.

“Fire fighters had to walk over a kilometer, carrying water and equipment, just to get to the fire,” said Foster. “We can now use the bush truck to get into tricky spots.”

Earle – as the truck has been nicknamed following a mispronunciation of the term ‘rural response vehicle’ by a dispatcher – proved its worth on its very first call to a motorcycle accident

in Carley’s Corners.

“Fire fighters used this truck to get into the field,” said Foster.

The MFD raised funds for the bush truck at the Merrickville Car Show on July 12, by selling hot dogs, sausages and beverages.

“We sold 1,000 hot dogs, 700 sausages and I wouldn’t even guess the number of drinks,” said Foster.

In total, the barbecue raised $3,700 for the bush truck. The MFD has a goal of $10,000, to pay for the needed modification, which they hope to reach following their next big fundraiser, a pig roast on Saturday, Sept. 12. The event will be held from 3 to 10 p.m., and will feature two pigs roasted on spits, beer, door prizes, a 50/50 draw and silent auction. It will be held at Mainstreet Restaurant in Merrickville.

“Mainstreet is roasting one pig and we’re doing the other,” said Foster.

“We’ll see who has the better recipe.

It’s going to be a lot of fun.”

Tickets for the event are $25 each and available at Mainstreet Restaurant, and are also being sold by the volunteer fire fighters in Merrickville. For more information, or to purchase a ticket, call Foster at (613) 269-4000.

“We’re hoping to raise over $6,000 with the pig roast, which will pretty much get us to our goal,” said Foster.

“The fundraising is very direct. We have pictures of the equipment we need to buy.”

He explained Merrickville provides the department with the necessities and the Merrickville Fire Fighter Association helps purchase other needs.

“The village does a lot for us, so we try to pitch in as much as we can,” said Foster. “This fundraiser should finish the truck up, we hope.”

The department consists of 26 volunteer fire fighters and one part-time fire chief. It features two pumper trucks, a ladder truck, a tanker, a rescue vehicle and the bush truck.

The MFD is an integral aspect of the community because they are generally the first to arrive on scene for emergency patient care calls, including shortness of breath and absent vital signs.

Senyshyn has aspirations of leadership going into first season with Bruins Stacey Roy

old player.

“Ever since I was six years old I wanted to be drafted to the NHL,” he said.

A series of five meetings with Bruins staff over the course of a year led him to this moment.

“It was pretty incredible to be taken by such a team,”

sroy@perfprint.ca

Zack Senyshyn plans to continue his streak of being a leader on and off the ice when he laces up for the Boston Bruins this season.

“I want to take on a lot more responsibility, a lot more leadership,” Senyshyn said.

The 18-year-old winger from Barrhaven who played with the local Jr. A Bears CCHL team surprised the sports world this June when the Bruins selected him as a first round pick making him the top Ottawa area pick in the NHL entry draft. Many insiders pegged him as a second line favourite, but media reports from this summer’s Bruins development camp would prove why Senyshyn deserved his spot.

Senyshyn scored two goals and had one assist during a five-minute intra-squad scrimmage.

“You can see right away how powerful a skater he is, and he’s young,” said Jay Pandolfo, Bruins Development Coach in media interviews during the development camp. “You can tell he still hasn’t really matured – even his body – so he’s just going to keep getting better. You can tell right away the explosiveness he has, so he has a lot of room to grow. It’s exciting to see what he has.”

This season will be all about showing this potential and using his extraordinary speed to his advantage at every opportunity.

“I consider that to be my secret weapon,” Senyshyn told the Record News Sunday, Aug. 16.

The Smiths Falls Community Hospital Auxiliary sincerely wishes to thank:

Zack Senyshyn (left) stands with former Smiths Falls Bears teammate, Neil Doef Aug. 16 during a visit to Rob Roy’s for the Bears season ticket holder luncheon. Senyshyn was drafted by the Boston Bruins this year as a first round entry draft pick.

Senyshyn attended the Bears’ season ticket holder luncheon at Rob Roy’s Pub with former teammate, Neil Doef. On Aug. 29 Senyshyn will return to the Greyhounds’ rink in Sault Ste. Marie where he drew the scouts’ attention by producing 26 goals, 45 assists in 66 games as a secondary line player last season.

“He’s a young kid — you love to see that enthusiasm from a player with his talent. And the

position he was in, to score the goals he did in a somewhat reduced role on a really good team — I think there’s upside there, and we’re excited about it,” said general manager, Don Sweeney to media following Senyshyn’s selection.

It was June 26, 2015 when Senyshyn was able to pull the Bruins jersey over his head.

Confirmation that he was drafted to the Boston Bruins was a dream come true for the 18-year-

Bears in training this week ahead of league opener Sept. 4 STAFF

Senyshyn said.

He reports to his new team in Boston on Sept. 9, 2015.

Smiths Falls Bears fans would have seen Senyshyn in the Bears’ Den during the 2013-2014 season where he scored 22 goals and 10 assists throughout the season as a right-winger.

It kicks off Friday, Aug. 21 from 3 to 4 p.m. followed by inter-squad training on Saturday, Aug. 22 from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

The team will be in Kemptville on Sunday for an exhibition game against the 73’s at 6:30 p.m.

On Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 26 and 27, the Bears will have a home-and-home ex-

hibition game series against the Pembroke Lumber Kings. Aug. 26, the Bears will travel to Pembroke for a 7 p.m. game, and on Saturday, Aug. 29, the Bears play host at 7 p.m.

The 2015/16 CCHL Tier 1 season kicks off Sept. 4 with the showcase weekend at the Bell Sensplex in Ottawa. Smiths Falls will take on Cumberland at 8 p.m.

TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Smiths Falls will hold a public meeting on the 8th day of September at 4:30 PM in the Town Hall, 77 Beckwith Street North, to consider proposed Zoning By-law Amendment under Sections 34 of the Planning Act, RSO 1990, as amended.

Representatives of the Lanark Highlands and YAK These two boats kept pace with each other for much of the first CanYouth Centre in Perth pose with their hand made ca- Am race that began a little after 10 a.m. Sunday Aug. 16. Points from noes built Aug. 15-16. this race will be counted in the regional competition division.

Brooke Henderson has received her LPGA Tour membership, effectively immediately.

According to LPGA Commissioner Michael Whan, who has reviewed her petition, he said, “I have granted her LPGA Tour membership beginning immediately.

“Brooke will compete out of Category 7 on the 2015 LPGA Priority List for the remainder of this season and also for the 2016 season. Category 7 is reserved for players who have won an official LPGA event as a non-member in the current or previous calendar year. Brooke truly earned her card, and we are looking forward to Brooke joining our Tour and our family. She is a special player and a wonderful person.”

Brooke was happy to receive the good news.

“Since I was a little girl in Smiths Falls, Ontario, my dream has been to play on the LPGA Tour. I am so grateful for the opportunity to join the Tour as a member and play alongside so many of my role models.

“Realizing this dream here at the Canadian Pacific Women’s Open in my native Canada is even more amazing and I am so proud to be an ambassador for golf in this

amazing country.

“I would like to thank Commissioner Mike Whan, the LPGA Tour staff, and all my sponsors, fans, friends and my amazing family for all the support I have received.”

LPGA policy states that any female 18 years of age or over shall be eligible to apply for membership in the Association’s Tournament Division; however, females between the ages of 15 and 18 may be granted special permission to apply for membership by petitioning directly to the Commissioner of the LPGA. Henderson, who is currently ranked No. 17 in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings, petitioned LPGA Commissioner Michael Whan following her win at the Cambia Portland Classic.

Henderson will compete in this week’s Canadian Pacific Women’s Open as a member of the LPGA Tour and any money that she earns during the remainder of the 2015 LPGA Tour season will be considered official money.

The remainder of the 2015 season will also be considered her rookie season on the LPGA Tour.

Per LPGA policy, there will be no further comment from the LPGA on Henderson’s petition.

Fundraiser for Mel’s Farm set for this Sunday, Aug. 23 Sunday, Aug. 23, make a trip to the farm and help some animal rescues.

From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Kricklewood Farm, located at 421 Kitley Line 8 Rd., near Frankville will play host to a fundraiser for Mel’s Farm and All Animal Rescue for the second time in three years. Two years ago, owners Dale Horeczy and Brad Daily opened their farm for the event that raised $2,000.

Kricklewood Farm is alive with thousands of sunflowers this year, including colourful Oriental varieties, and the owners will have them on display and for sale during the fundraising event.

Men’s Twilight league news Hinton Dodge was behind the wheel of the August 13 edition of the SFG&CC Thursday Night Men’s Twilight and they didn’t steer us wrong, providing an endless prize table and a fun scramble format for the night’s play.

The ageless super group of Bruno Patti, Howard Jeffreys, Don Ross, Bob James, and Ray Blair put into practice the tips Old Tom Morris gave them when they were junior golfers and it paid off with a victory on the front nine.

Mike Milks, Rick Thompson, Todd Shullstad, Billy Ballantyne, Pat Bulley, and Chris Cullen did the same with Old Tom McPhee’s advice, earning them honors on the back side.

The Roosteraunt closest to the pin prizes went to Adam Summers and Steven Blair for their tee shots on holes 3 and 18.

Kerwin O’Neil and Greg “Champ” Hull took home the Burns’ Jewelers gift certificates for the best second shots on holes 9 and 15. Greg plans on adding a little more bling to his Stanley Cup ring.

The Town & Country Chrysler longest drives were launched by John McKenney and Rob Dopson on holes 1 and 17.

Dave McKenney was the lucky 50/50 prize winner, Rodney Parent won the bottle draw, and the pro shop prizes went to Ray Blair and Chad Storie.

This week’s winner of the coveted Rocky’s Road Rash ball and a chance at the Closing’s big hole in one prize was Rod Cooke. Good luck!

This week’s question: What was one of Arnold Palmer’s most important preround rituals in his prime?

A. Putting with one hand B. Eating bacon and eggs C. Regripping his clubs D. Listening to Frank Sinatra See next week’s article for the answer.

“We’ll have paths mowed around the sunflowers so guests can walk around them… get up close and personal with them,” said Horeczy.

The fundraiser for Mel’s Farm is a chance for the partners to host an open house as well as help a local animal charity.

Visitors will see some goats, chickens and ducks and pigs, and be able to check out the sunflower crop.

Throughout the fundraiser, there will be displays set up on the front yard.

Farmers’ market vendors as well as arts and crafts vendors will be on site, selling their goods. Their table fees will be donated to the cause.

Kat Durant will have a photo booth set up where folks can have their pictures taken for a donation to Mel’s Farm.

Sunflower bouquets will also be available for a donation to Mel’s Farm.

A ‘Hardy’ show of support The Hardy family has been humbled with the care and support Smiths Falls and area has shown former police chief Larry Hardy.

Last Saturday, the family hosted a fundraising barbecue at the Canadian Tire Centre raising $1,108.50 toward chief Hardy’s recovery from a double lung transplant. From left to right: Braydon Comeau, Cadence Craig, Khristal Hardy, Ken Reid and (behind) Brian Forsyth.

The former chief came home last month from hospital. Daughter, Khristal Hardy said the day was very emotional with many people dropping in $50 bills after hearing her father’s story.

Only three days remain to see A Little Princess at Smiths Falls’ Station Theatre A Little Princess is a new musical created by the talented team of William Brooke (book), Eric Rockwell (score) and Margaret Rose (lyrics). It’s the story of a young girl’s struggle between life’s harsh reality and the world of imagination. The play’s central theme focuses on the way hope and friendship can magically transform a life, even in desperate circumstances. Now in its second week of production, A Little Princess will play at the air-conditioned Station Theatre on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 21 and 22 at 7:30 p.m., and close with a matinee on Sunday, Aug. 23 at 2 p.m. “Princess” has been drawing audiences from Ottawa and elsewhere in the region and is popular with young and old.

The Smiths Falls Community Theatre (SFCT) is privileged to be given the Canadian premiere rights to this production, adapted from the much-loved novel

by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Burnett is best known for her children’s books published just before and after the turn of the 19th century. The musical was originally produced by the Sacramento Theatre Company, Michael Lunn, producing director.

For the SFCT’s production, director Lynda Daniluk faced the task of finding a large cast with rewarding roles for younger, upcoming players and veteran

actors alike. With the help of many family participants (take for example the contributions of vocal coach and pianist Rowena Pearl and her children Wilson, Owen and Rylee) she has recruited a troupe balanced between novice and experienced. She has also drawn on one of the largest and most skilled production crews. Authentic costuming, along with innovative staging and lighting effects were especially noteworthy.

Juliet Alfaro plays the leading role of Sara Crewe, dubbed “The Little Princess” by her adoring father. Sara is a spunky, resilient and creative 12year-old who learns to adapt to a most difficult life in a strict boarding school.

Alfaro nails the essence of her character, bringing a lovely contralto voice to her singing and a charming presence to her acting. This is Juliet’s acting debut, but she is no stranger to the arts. She is a grade 7 honour roll student at Kars On The Rideau Public School with a passion for drawing, writing, singing and playing the piano. Juliet was the recipient of the graduating Arts Award while at North Gower Marlborough Public School.

Some of the smaller roles also hit a responsive chord with audiences, in particular the schoolgirls, Sara’s classmates, played by Brooklyn Johnston, Susannah Burtt, Shaela Lundy and Avery Burtt.

Heiress and Porthos in The Three Musketeers. Richard has appeared in a number of major roles recently, in a singing role in The Railway Children and an acting role in Love from a Stranger. Susan Parsons (Miss Minchin) appeared in Camelot in 2012 and Humbug in 2013.

Among her other credits are: a music CD in 2014 (currently working on a second), finalist in Voice on the Rideau competition, Westport 2013 and 2014, and a gold medal for Grade 3 Speech Arts 2012 (Royal Conservatory).

Garrett Pipher, as Ram Dass, provides a running commentary (complete with some of his home-grown Eastern philosophy) and most of the broadest laughs in the production. Garrett has been acting for eight years. His most recent memorable performances are as the zany Simple Simon in the SFCT’s pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk (2014) and SFDCI’s production of Times A Changin’ (2015).

Capital Fair

FREE GATE Admission

is the last big summer hurrah

For the past 40 years, the Capital (formerly Gloucester) Fair has welcomed spring to the National Capital Region, bringing fun and excitement along with it.

Now in its second year as the 10 day late summer event at the Rideau Carleton Raceway, the Fair promises to have something for everyone with wild and crazy outdoor monster truck shows, western horse and barrel racing shows, Eastern Ontario’s largest midway, three days of senior’s bridge tournaments, a raucous demolition derby, free daily live entertainment, a comedic hypnotist, a daily dog stunt show, Armwrestling championships, an amateur BBQ competition, a Petting Zoo and a huge kids zone among lots of other attractions. It’s is a great way to get out and have one last summer celebration with the whole family.

The Fair’s signature event, the Monster Trucks on a Mission show is not your average extreme action feature. These trucks take full advantage of the outdoor venue to reach speeds and heights and perform tricks that can’t be performed in any indoor arena. With a show on Friday, August 21st, Saturday, August 22nd and Sunday, August 23rd, there’s lots of opportunity to enjoy this spectacular event. Discount tickets are available on-line (capitalfair.ca) for a limited time and at the door for only $25.00. Special combo packages are available but only on-line. They offer all day midway rides and admission to the Monster Shows.

There are also VIP packages for the best seats in the house, a pit pass and autograph session.

Cars and trucks will be crashing all over the fair, as the Monster Truck Show is complimented by a return of our FREE Demolition Derby on Thursday night.

See our derby cars smash and crash, all to the delight of the crowd.

And it won’t just be the car’s strength that will be tested. On Sunday the Ontario Championship arm-wrestling competition will push competitors to the edge.

All of that outdoor fun is sure to build up a healthy appetite and barbeque is

the name of the game at the Capital Fair at the D&S Southern Comfort B.B.Q. Restaurant “Smoked to the Bone” barbeque competition. The competition will pit amateur teams against each other for $1,000 in cash and prizes. Think your barbecue talents deserve glory? Why not try your hand? All you need is a BBQ. Chicken and ribs are provide with your admission.

For animal enthusiasts, there are western horse barrel races on Friday and Saturday night and a full Gymkhana show on Sunday. The Kids Zone features the Bird of Prey show where families can meet eagles, owls and hawks up close and personal. See them soar overhead as the conservation team explains the habitat and challenges these species face. There’s also a petting zoo and pony rides.

Also inside the Kids Tent is DooDoo, the world famous clown and his Dance Party. There’s also the Reptile Rainforest, the Kommunity Stage and the Travelin’ Farmer display where city folk can get in touch with their country cousins.

Kids young and old can enjoy the World’s Finest Midway, which delivers all the best rides from summer´s past including the Cannonball, Music Express, Alien Abduction and Fireball. All-day ride passes are regular $36 or you can purchase in advance for $18.

The Capital Fair also appreciates the community it thrives in, so they give back every year the day before the fair starts with the Hydro Ottawa Special Needs Day. This year we will host over 1,500 special needs children to a private party where legions of Hydro Ottawa volunteers help move children to and from World’s Finest Midway rides and then off to a hotdog and ice cream lunch in the Hydro Ottawa food tent. Entertainment, Karaoke and a Petting Zoo, courtesy of Monalea Petting Zoo, round out what is the best day of the year for many of these children.

So come check out all that the fair has to offer!

Can Am races were featured at this year’s event as it is the first time a qualifying race has taken place at the event since its resurrection several years ago. The event also had many child-friendly attractions including boat painting, petting zoo and mini-golf. Clockwise, from top left: Marie Simon comes towards the shore in her Keller Williams Realty canoe; Colton Jones spent some time giving affection to two beautiful kittens brought to the regatta by the West Winds Ranch; Tanis Cowan of YAK Youth Centre in Perth put on the first coat of orange paint on her organization’s six-hour canoe entry; boats racing on the water.

Automakers look to technology to solve driver problems While I’ve heard from plenty of senior vehicle owners who are becoming overwhelmed with the technology in their new vehicles and who wish things were a little simpler (especially in terms of the instrument panel), automakers are taking a very different view; looking to technology to solve some of the problems older drivers experience on a daily basis.

One of the big drivers towards putting more collision mitigation and driver-assist technology in today’s vehicles is, of course, profit from increased market share. While we all think that car manufacturers design and engineer their products to have a youth-oriented appeal, auto execs know that catering to a mature consumer can make for a better bottom line. In the US, the market that drives the shape and form of our daily drivers, they are experiencing a real boom in the senior market. From 2003 to 2013 the number of licensed drivers over 65 has increased by 29 per cent.

There are more than 3.5 million drivers over the age of 84 (a 43 per cent increase over the last decade). And these consumers aren’t satisfied with keeping older autos or buying secondhand. Drivers over 75 now buy new at a rate of six times the number of vehicles as those aged 18 to 24. In fact south of the border, drivers under the age of 20 have declined by three per cent.

While no carmaker wants to be seen as building a vehicle for the older generations, there’s no doubt that certain features such as cross-path detection, lane keeping assist, rear-view cameras, and automatic braking can be real assets to those with restricted physical mobility and slower reaction times.

Tips of the week: If you’ve left your vehicle sitting idle for a few days or more, you may hear a few brake noises when moving it for the first time.

Brake rotors are made of steel without any anti-corrosion treatment and will quickly develop a fine layer of rust when the vehicle is stationary. This doesn’t necessarily mean any repair or service work is required, just a few kilometres of gentle driving. When first taking off, avoid any hard or panicstop brake applications for the first few kilometres. Normal braking will wear off any surface rust from the rotors and the noise will quickly disappear. Hard stops may cause a vibration when braking that won’t usually cure itself and may lead to the need to replace the rotors.

If you drive one of the newer generation diesel-powered trucks, you’re familiar with the need to replenish the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank.

The fluid is injected into the exhaust system to reduce emissions. Most vehicles using this system have a 20 L capacity tank and one fill up will average about 4,000 km of driving

Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER

depending on speed and loads carried/towed. Buying fluid in carry-jugs usually means paying about $10 per gallon ($2.20/L). DEF is dispensed at most highway truck stops by bulk pumps similar to gas/diesel fuel units and is priced on average about half the cost of carry-jugs. So if one of your trips takes you by a commercial truck fueling station, it may help your trans-

portation budget to stop in and fill up.

From Aug. 22-23 Auto Wonderland presents their 10th annual Swap Meet and Car & Motorcycle Show in Morrisburg, Ontario 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. On Sunday, Aug. 23 the Arnprior White Pine Festival Classic Car & Show rolls uptown on John Street in Arnprior. On the same day the Kinsmen Club of Cornwall presents Kinsmen in Motion in support of Big Brothers and Big Sisters with a car, bike and truck show open to all years.

They will have live music, vendors and it will be held at Lamoureux Park in Cornwall.

And to satisfy your hunger for both chrome and barbecue the Rotary Club of Perth invites all car clubs to the inaugural Perth Ribfest and Car Show in

Perth on Sunday, Aug. 23. There will be four rib specialty vendors, multiple food and non-food vendors, live music, a beer tent, and much more.

Defensive riding recommended as motorcycle deaths rise again So far this year 25 motorcycle fatalities have been recorded on OPPpatrolled roads and police are appealing to riders to use their defensive driving skills to keep themselves safe.

One of the important things that riders learn when they take a motorcycle training course is to ‘drive as if you are invisible’, which addresses the fact that car drivers who are looking for bigger vehicles sometimes don’t notice motorcyclists in their path, especially at intersections. “I never saw him” is some-

thing heard all too often at the scene of a motorcycle crash.

Defensive riding is the most important key to safe motorcycle driving; ride to expect the unexpected. Riders are reminded to be aware of other motorists at all times and be ready with a counter maneuver to avoid their mistakes.

This year 22 operators and three passengers have died in motorcycle crashes.

Fifteen of those deaths involved persons between the ages of 45-65 years of age.

Four people died while on a motorcycle

in west region alone within the first week of August. The OPP is reminding all drivers to always have a watchful eye for motorcycles; the safety of motorcyclists is the responsibility of everyone.

Motorcycle riders should be aware of where a motorist’s blind spots lie and spend as little time in them as possible.

If you can see driver’s eyes in their mirrors, then they have the ability to see you too.

New Jeep Renegade can’t be judged by its look Auto Know

Brian turner

everything you’d expect for a capable CUV plus power output of 180 hp and 175 lb/ft or torque, Jeep’s Selec-Terrain 4X4 system with four driver-choice modes, a fully dis-connectable rear axle, 2,000 lb towing capacity, configurable instrument cluster, remote keyless entry and a block heater just to hit the highlights.

Submitted photo When you first approach a Renegade, its size deceives you. That high roof The 2015 Jeep Renegade combines style and performance with a line and Jeep traditional upright styling roomy interior and superb handling. hides a very roomy interior. Adults will find comfort and space in both front and rear seats and whereas most in this class have very little usable cargo space behind the rear seats, the Renegade can hold 524 L (18.5 cubic feet) and a whopping 1,438 L (50.8 cu-ft) with the seats folded down. The fold flat passenger front seat expands the length of items you can carry and the rear cargo floor is removable and reversible for even more configurations.

On the road the Renegade’s handling and performance belies its short wheelbase and trail-rated ground clearance (eight-inches). The nine-speed automatic makes the most of the quick throttle response of the 2.4 L engine bringing it to highway merging speeds in a very quick and smooth fashion. Cornering in precise as the McPherson strut independent front and rear suspensions ENERGY $AVING$! minimize body roll and the strategically When it’s cool outside, open the windows and turn weighted chassis keeps the Renegade’s off the air. tires firmly planted. While it may seem that aerodynamics were the last thing in the designers’ minds, this CUV has a very quiet ride with surface that seems oblivious to the effects of cross and head winds.

Switching through the driver-selectable 4X4 modes (auto, snow, sand, and 2015 PRICEDEX SUMMER SERIES mud) provides no clunky shifts or negative feedback. A low-range system is available for trail and off-road purists.

THE LEGENDARY R0013406982

The Renegade Sport 4X4 with the 2.4 L engine is rated at 11.2 L/100 km city and 8.0 L/100 km highway (25 and 35 mpg respectively). Its 47.5 L fuel tank should deliver a 450 km range in mixed driving. The P215/65R16 tires are available from an almost endless number of makers in the $100-$200 per unit price range. A dealership oil change with synthetic oil averages less than $100.

With the Renegade, Jeep has successfully met the challenges of designing and building a CUV that has all the capabilities, performance, and day-today livability that consumers demand without the detracting end results that plague the competition. But you can’t judge this one by its looks, you have to get behind the wheel.

Yours in service, Brian Turner

The vehicles I road test for these reviews (yes, it’s a tough job, but I’m willing to make sacrifices), come from two main sources: press fleets owned by the Canadian head offices of the manufacturers and local dealerships. I prefer to use dealership units whenever possible because they more closely represent the trim and equipment level that you or I shop for, whereas press fleets are made up of fully loaded higher-end models. If you are interested in learning more about any of these vehicles, check out the manufacturers’ websites or better yet, call your local dealership and speak to one of their knowledgeable staff. It’s the ultimate in interactive information gathering. The 2015 Jeep Renegade I enjoyed for this review came from the friendly folks at Fiat Chrysler Auto (FCA).

Compact utility vehicles represent a very fast growing and competitive segment of our automotive market. Designing and building an effective CUV for consumers is a challenging balancing act. If you build it compact enough to attract urban customers while still providing some trail or off-road capabilities, a common side effect is a choppy ride. If you create one light enough to get great fuel economy and performance, they become less manageable and less comfortable on highways when exposed to crosswinds. And if you supply ample room to comfortably carry four passengers, there is seldom any usable cargo space. Jeep brought all these opportunities and challenges to the table when they started with a blank slate that would become the all-new 2015 Renegade but they had another obstacle than their completion didn’t. They had to create a vehicle that would live up to their legendary reputation as masters of the utility vehicle segment.

The 2015 Jeep Renegade starts the price tape at $19,995 for the entry level Sport model and travels the trail up to $34,285 for a fully loaded Limited edition (all prices before destination and dealer prep fees, license costs, taxes and any current incentives). My fourwheel drive Renegade Sport equipped with the optional 2.4 L gasoline engine and nine-speed automatic transmission came in at $27,490. This brings you

The 23rd annual Pakenham Fair on Saturday, Aug. 15, held at the Stewart Community Centre and grounds, was a bona fide celebration, with people of all ages joining together to appreciate the value of farming and community.

Festivities included agricultural and horticultural exhibits, horse, beef and dairy shows, petting zoo, food and drink, live entertainment, children’s activities, vendors and so much more. Top: Eight-year-old Addy Russell (right) and Reagan Russell, 10, entered six-month-old ‘Diesel’, their purebred Bernese Mountain Dog, in the Man’s Best Friend contest, which was judged

by Dan Lafortune, also known as The Dog Father. Left: Ten-year-old Grace Crowder of Carleton Place and ‘Blade’ prepare to compete within the dairy show’s novice showmanship class.

To commemorate the fair, five-year-old Jack McHugh of Ottawa creates a T-shirt with help from Almonte’s JB Arts.
