Migration Festival celebrating 50 years By Bryan Jessop
KINGSVILLE – An annual celebration of local history and identity will bring with it a few ‘golden’ opportunities for 2019. The Kingsville Migration Festival’s 50th anniversary will be honoured at locations throughout the community starting Thursday, Oct. 17 to Sunday, Oct. 20. The itinerary of multiple events for multiple age groups at multiple locations will officially begin at Pelee Island Winery with a 6:30 p.m. wine and cheese reception that will also include musical entertainment. There, the festival’s new logo will be revealed. The logo, to be printed on t-shirts and hoodies that will be for sale at locations and events throughout the festival, was created by Kristine Verbeek of K Design Studios. Verbeek also designed the logo for the Town of Kingsville and the community’s Tall Ships Festival held earlier this year. From Pelee Island Winery, events and attractions for this year’s Migration Festival will branch out to other locations including Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary, Lakeside Park, the Kingsville Arena Complex and Grovedale House. “It’s going to be busy all over the place,” explained Town of Kingsville parks and recreation program manager Maggie Durocher, who is also on the committee of nine individuals spearheading the festival. “We’re really excited about it. This is a unique hallmark for Kingsville — nobody else has a Migration Festival. It’s a celebration of a special relationship with Jack Miner Sanctuary.” On Friday, Oct. 18, Jack Miner’s will present a musical performance by Theatre One at 7 p.m. A youth group led by Stephanie Santos and Becca Silvius, the group also appeared at the past summer’s Tall Ships Festival. Afterwards, Eric Hansen will return to the Playfair Stadium at the sanctuary as Jack Miner in a one-man theatrical presentation. Tickets will sell at $10 per adult and $5 per child, with proceeds to benefit both the sanctuary and Theatre One. This year’s parade will begin at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, starting at Main Street and Spruce Street and proceeding south on Division Street to Park Street. Marking the 50th anniversary, the 2019 parade will include about 45 entries. “It’s really full this year — the number of participants is much higher than average,” explained Durocher, who noted (Continued on Page 2)

Best in business recognized at Chamber Business Excellence Awards By Pat Bailey
They say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. When it comes to volunteerism, that seems to be the case for the Reid family. Twenty-three years after his father Jim was named the first winner of the Alf Bennie Community Impact Award by the Leamington and District Chamber of Commerce, Kevin Reid and his wife Christie were honoured as the 2019 winners. Before the name was read aloud, Kevin sat at his table waiting to join with more than 400 guests to applaud the efforts of the recipient. He grew increasingly uncomfortable as he
suddenly realized Cordell Green of Blackburn Radio was describing he and wife Christie and their volunteer efforts within the community. He sat with his head buried in his hands, while the rest of the crowd was on its feet applauding the Reid family. Finally making his way to the stage, Kevin was visibly shocked by the announcement. “It’s incredible,” said Kevin of sharing the award with his wife. “Unfortunately,” he said, “she bailed on me tonight.” “She never bails on me,” he added. He said she had so much on her plate Wednesday evening, she had to pass on attending the 25th Annual Business Excellence Awards hosted by the Leamington
District Chamber of Commerce Oct. 9 at the Leamington Portuguese Club. Kevin said they were certainly not expecting such an honour. In fact, he said, he had been warned jokingly that he was sitting amongst a table of ‘losers’, so he shouldn’t count on winning anything that evening. He didn’t. In fact, he was there strictly to lend his support to the other business nominees — as far as he was concerned, he wasn’t up for any award. But it was their involvement within the community that made the Reids a long overdue choice as the recipients of the Alf Bennie Award, according to (Continued on Page 4)

Robyn has done a wonderful job putting it all together.” Also on Saturday, the Kingsville Arena Complex will host a free-admission marketplace from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. featuring about 50 vendors. Sunday hours will be 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Not to leave out the younger visitors, Lakeside Park will host children’s activities from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday as well as a Children’s Marketplace at the pavilion. Pony rides, face painting, mini putt golfing, Fantasy Express train rides, Mystic Drumz, Jangles the Clown and a Kingsport Environmental Raptor Show will all be among the attractions. One of the new activities will be Golf Disc/Frisbee Throwing as presented and offered by Tecumseh-based Windsor Essex Disc Golf. Also new, a barbecue steak fundraiser in support of the Kingsville Firefighters Association, Jack Miner Sanctuary and the Migration Festival itself will be hosted by the Grovedale House at 103 Park Street. Tickets are available to the 19-plus event at Jack Miner’s, the Kingsville Arena Complex and from Kingsville firefighters. Doors will open at 6 p.m. At Jack Miner’s, Sunday’s schedule will include Breakfast with Honker from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. and a new Golden Egg Hunt starting at 10:30 a.m. for ages one to four and five to eight.

Participants can dress up their geese to celebrate the festival’s 50th anniversary. During the festival, the dressed up geese can be found at Kingsville businesses, where visitors can take their photos with them to hashtag to #MigFest50. “The whole thing is volunteer driven,” noted Durocher, who explained that the new Rotary Club and the Scouts are among the groups offering their assistance through the four-day event. “The volunteers make it all happen. We couldn’t do it without them.”

Federal Election is Monday, Oct. 21 Chatham-KentLeamington
Monday, October 21, is the 2019 Federal Election. Advance polls have shown an increase in voter turnout to date. Conservative MP Dave Van Kesteren has served the riding for 13 years since 2006, but is not seeking re-election this term. Leamington farmer Dave Epp is the Conservative candidate for the riding. Liberal candidate Katie Omstead, a teacher, ran in the 2015 Federal Election and finished a close second behind the incumbent Van Kesteren by only 2,300 votes. Tony Walsh, an investment specialist with CIBC in Chatham, has been elected to represent the NDP in the 2019 Federal Election. Walsh also ran in the 2015 election, finishing third, approximately 10,000 votes behind Omstead. The People’s Party of Canada (PPC) has named John Paul Balagtas as the Chatham-Kent Leamington candidate. Rounding out the ballot for Chatham-Kent Leamington this year is returning Green candidate Mark Vercouteren, who works in the agriculture industry. Vercouteren placed fourth with 1,347 votes in 2015.
Essex
The riding of Essex includes the municipalities of LaSalle, Amherstburg, Essex and Kingsville. Incumbent NDP candidate Tracey Ramsey has served the riding since 2015. Also vying for the seat is Conservative Chris Lewis, Liberal Audrey Festeryga and the People’s Party of Canada Bill Capes as the Essex candidate.
Students of the Kingsville District High School Tech Zone courses — Matt Daudlin’s construction/woodworking class and Doug Doey’s welding/fabricating class — present a new sleigh to Mrs. Mary Claus and the Windsor Parade Corporation at the school Friday, Oct. 11. The new sleigh will be part of a new float for the Kingsville Santa Claus Parade and Festival of Lights kickoff Saturday, Nov. 16. It will also be featured in Santa Claus parades in Amherstburg, Essex and Windsor. (Southpoint Sun Photo)
KDHS Tech Zone builds parade’s new sleigh By Bryan Jessop
Christmas is still more than two months away, but a group of Kingsville District High School students has already earned a spot on Santa’s nice list. Courses within the school’s Tech Zone department including the construction/woodworking class of Matt Daudlin and welding/fabricating class of Doug Doey joined forces to construct a new sleigh for Mr. and Mrs. Claus. The ride will be part of a new float in the upcoming Kingsville Santa Claus Parade Saturday, Nov. 16, which will also serve as the yearly kickoff for the Fantasy of Lights Festival at Lakeside Park. Santa’s old parade sleigh, presented by the Jaycee’s club which has since become a part of the Windsor
Parade Corporation that organizes the parade, was constructed in 1998. The sleigh, measuring at eight feet in length for the body and 12 feet with the runners and just under four feet in width, will accompany a new float with reindeer that appear to be taking off from the roof of a house. The new float’s foundation was built by WPC representatives. “The group is backed by a lot of volunteers. The pay they receive is the smiles on the kids’ faces,” explained WPC board member Ken Bosse, who was at KDHS to accept the new sleigh along with Mrs. Claus. Doey was approached with the proposal to have the new sleigh built at KDHS earlier this year. Plans for the vehicle’s design began prior to the end of the
Grand Opening October 18 & 19
2018-’19 school year and a team of about 60 students began working on it shortly
“It’s a beautiful ride, with a beautiful new float that it’s going to ride on.” — Mrs. Claus
after the new school year began in early September. The team of mostly Grade
9 students was guided by Grade 12 leads Nickolay Van Veenschoten and Caleb Remillard. Doey, the Tech Zone department head at KDHS, has also led Kingsville’s Fantasy of Lights Festival committee for the past 27 years. “It’s a beautiful ride, with a beautiful new float that it’s going to ride on,” noted Mrs. Claus. “From the old one, it was tough to talk to the kids while we were on it. This one has a lot more room.” The same sleigh will also be featured for Santa Claus parades in Essex,
Amherstburg and Windsor. The Kingsville parade on November 16 will start at 6 p.m. Daudlin’s class used mostly four foot by eight foot sheets of plywood to build the body of the sleigh while Doey’s class created the steel frame and mounting surfaces beneath. In total, approximately 150 hours were spent by the team of 60 KDHS students on building the new ride, including several after-school hours put in by Van Veenschoten and Remillard. The sleigh is light enough for four students to lift.

Toil in the oil
It’s often said that a great deal of satisfaction comes from doing certain jobs yourself. I agree with the sentiment 100 per cent, and not just because it can save a person money. One of the first things my dad taught me after I became old enough to drive was how to do an oil change. The subject was a 1986 Chevrolet Astro — our family minivan that eventually became my first set of wheels. Hardly as cool as the Trans Am or Camaro Z28 that I was pining for in my teens, but a very useful commuter for someone in a band that hauls a bunch of gear (drums, amps, guitars, etc.) around from time to time. To me, it’s sad that as the years go by, there are fewer and fewer jobs that a driveway knuckle banger can do on his or her own car. Even air filters are next to impossible to change on some vehicles. On my wife’s SUV, I can’t even FIND the bloody battery, let alone swap it out for a new one. To this day, I still do my own oil changes; well, at least on my 50-year-old Cutlass. It’s a simple yet rewarding job, especially for someone like me who’s not exactly handy around the house in most respects. A few days ago, I stumbled across a story on Facebook about the Bugatti Veyron. At a bargain price of Bryan Jessop about $1.5 million, it’s the company’s cheapest vehicle. As much as I enjoy and appreciate high performance automobiles, even I find that ridiculous. Oh, but it gets worse. An oil change on the car comes in at a hefty price of $21,000. I’d forgive you for assuming that’s a typo, but it’s not. Roughly half of the car must be dismantled in order to access its oil filters (I believe there’s four of them). That’s 1.4 per cent of the car’s sticker price. That would be the equivalent of spending $420 on an oil change for your run of the mill, $30,000 car, truck or SUV. Sure, the 8.0L, quadruple turbo W16 engine cranks out nearly 1,200 horsepower and offers a top speed a notch or two over 400 km/hr. Regardless, if you have to take nearly half the car apart for a $21,000 oil change, you’re looking at a work of completely asinine engineering — at least in my opinion. Then again, I hate front wheel drive because half the spark plugs (on a V6) are impossible to FIND, let alone change without unbolting the motor mounts and pushing the block forward (“hey buddy, someone put your engine in sideways!” the joke used to go). Perhaps, depending on how you look at things, the Veyron is a very CLEVER exercise in engineering. For years, seeing to it that the owners can’t work on their own cars has ensured that the dealerships make more money maintaining them. But $21,000 for an oil change? I suppose if you can spend seven figures on a car, five figures on an oil change is no big deal. You’ve probably heard a “riches to rags” story or two where an exorbitantly rich person loses everything and begs for assistance from the average Joes and Janes he once looked down upon. A lot of those stories are quite Veyron-esque in nature. “A fool and his money are soon parted,” as the old saying goes. At one point, I considered making a “capitalism versus socialism” argument of this column (which is exactly what the comments on the Facebook post about the Veyron’s oil changed became), but figured ‘what’s the point’? To play a double devil’s advocate, let’s face facts — the wealthy need us everyday “Joes and Janes” to run their companies and we need them to provide jobs. When either goes a step too far in disrespecting the other, the outcome is usually “lose-lose.” No matter where they stand on the social scale, those who think they’re more important than they really are eventually find out just how unimportant they actually are… no matter what they drive. Some have said “whoever dies with the most toys wins.” Others, myself included, believe “whoever dies with the most toys is still dead.”

The Bon (Bonzano) Jasperson home, built in 1903, across from Kingsville District High School at 171 Main Street East, was one of the more impressive homes built in town. The brick home has since been painted, and has changed slightly over the years. Bon Jasperson was one of Kingsville’s leading businessmen, being involved in banking, Kingsville Gas Company (eventually sold to Beaver Gas & Oil), Canadian Canners and Kingsville Golf Club, to name a few.

Leamington Ministerial to address housing crisis By Bryan Jessop
LEAMINGTON – Although it won’t happen overnight, a group of Leamington-based churches and other organizations have plans to lessen the impact of local homelessness. The long-term strategy, explained St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church’s Reverend Andrew Wilson, will begin with providing meals to individuals and families who are struggling with the increasing costs of residency in the Leamington area. Members of churches including St. John the Evangelist, Faith Mennonite, St. Paul’s Lutheran, Knox Presbyterian, Leamington United, Unitarian Universalist of Olinda, Meadow Brook and the Leamington United Mennonite have formed a committee to meet and discuss ideas and plans to help alleviate the area’s housing challenges. “The Ministerial is hearing more and more about housing issues,” said Wilson. “We’re hearing about people being evicted, people sleeping in parking lots… it’s part of a crisis being experienced across Canada. When there is a boom in jobs, this is sometimes an unfortunate side effect.” Joining or supporting the committee of representatives from various local churches are the Ontario Provincial Police, the South Essex Community Council (SECC), The Bridge Leamington Youth Resource Centre and representatives of the Municipality of Leamington. With the latter, Mayor Hilda MacDonald has sat in on meetings the group has already held in hopes of assisting those most directly affected by escalating housing costs. Also planning to get in-
volved are United Way and Leamington’s Salvation Army. Wilson explained that with season workers arriving from beyond Canada — added to the situation of local farmers being unable to construct bunk houses because of infrastructure limitations — many workers are left with no options outside of moving into low income housing structures. That, he explained, is a factor contributing to the rising costs of housing as experienced in multiple regions across the province and country. “We need more housing and affordable housing,” Wil“We need more son said. “There are housing and many layers to this problem.” affordable housing. In response to the There are many problem as it worslayers to this ens in Leamington, the new commitproblem.” tee has reached out — Rev. Andrew to the Downtown Wilson Windsor Mission and met with its executive director Ron Dunn. Following the city organization’s lead, Leamington Ministerial and its partners will begin the first phase of its plan by offering meals at designated dates, times and locations.

“Food gives people comfort and hope. Saving money on food means that money can be spent somewhere else,” Wilson explained. “The plan is for all these groups to work together, not compete for resources. In the longterm, there needs to be money and political will with provincial and/or federal involvement. The longterm project will need lots of people, money and help.” The committee’s second phase will be based on the goal of providing one meal per day. In the meantime, meals will likely be offered monthly, starting Monday, Oct. 28 at 4:30 p.m. at Leamington United Church at 9 John Street.

LEAMINGTON – The long-term goal of sprucing things up in Leamington’s uptown core has taken two more steps forward. Council voted in favour of design concepts as prepared by R.C. Spencer Associates during its regular Tuesday, Sept. 24 meeting for two locations — Shotten Park between Talbot Street West and Mill Street West and what is simply being dubbed the “Uptown Park” at 47 Erie Street South. The former has already been earmarked for a sum of $18,000 in grants from the Honey Family Foundation Endowment Fund in partnership with the municipality and Leamington’s Communities in Bloom committee. The latter occupies the property that hosted The Village Inn/Sunset Club

In contrast, municipal administration is recommending that tenders for the two park contracts be prepared and released as soon as possible. Uptown Park’s conceptual design features a large green space, a shade-providing structure, plants, trees, a sculpture or other artistic feature, an armour stone retaining wall, bike racks and signage. Council was receptive to the design, although Councillor Bill Dunn asked that the specific locations for large trees be altered to maintain visibility for a wall mural planned in conjunc-
tion with the Migrant Workers Community Program (MWCP). Engineering project manager Alex Del Brocco explained that such alterations to the plan would not be problematic. The design of the park’s amenities will be consistent in appearance with the recently revamped Mill Street West. Shotten Park’s design will include a walking path to align with Queens Avenue, green space, benches, a shade structure and multiple areas to accommodate vendor tents during the monthly Mill Street Night Markets. The garden space included in the design will be funded through the Honey Family Foundation donations. “I like what I see. I think this will enhance the whole uptown,” Dunn noted.

Research partnership with Erie Shores HealthCare and U of Windsor Our partnerships make us stronger as an organization

Trudeau makes campaign stop in Tilbury
TILBURY – On Thanksgiving morning, Oct. 14, nearly 300 supporters gathered in Tilbury to see the Liberal leader, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and join Katie Omstead for a meet and greet. Omstead is the Federal Liberal candidate for Chatham-Kent – Leamington. Trudeau’s visit was the first in a generation in Tilbury and for Chatham-Kent. The last time a Prime Minister stopped in Chatham-Kent was a visit by Prime Minister Jean Chrétien to open an ethanol plant over 20 years ago. Trudeau celebrated Canada Day in 2018 in Leamington, which is also in the Chatham-Kent-Leamington riding. This is his first stop in Chatham-Kent, but Omstead wants to lead the way in putting the riding’s smaller communities back on the map. “Every single community in Chatham-Kent-Leamington matters. I want to be the strong voice for them in Ottawa,” Omstead said. Welcoming supporters to the event, Omstead stated: “We have knocked on doors in every single community in this riding. We’re going to win it! Help out this week, help out on Election Day. Let’s get out there and paint this riding red!”
LEAMINGTON – Erie Shores HealthCare (ESHC) has entered into a partnership with the University of Windsor to utilize its Research Ethics Board, allowing ESHC to participate in research studies. Research is a fundamental activity for the generation of new knowledge and the improvement of patient care. “Partnering with local institutions and contributing to their work in advancing the health and well-being of the Windsor-Essex community is one of the missions of the University of Windsor. The partnership between Erie Shores HealthCare and the Research Ethics Board will promote ethical research as well as scientific knowledge for the benefit of local and broader communities,” said Dr. Suzanne McMurphy, Associate Professor, Dept. of Sociology, Anthropology and Criminology, and Chair of the Research Ethics Board, University of Windsor The research conducted in affiliation with the University of Windsor is of considerable benefit to the communities that ESHC serves, health care practitioners and the hospital. Research activities also enhance the education and awareness of the medical, nursing and allied health care professionals in the organization. “Research is crucial as it allows us to better understand trends and enhance quality outcomes through evidence within the healthcare setting. ESHC is excited to embark on this new opportunity,” stated Kristin Kennedy, VP Patient Services and Chief Nursing Executive. ESHC has currently been approached to participate in three studies. ESHC has REB approval to be a part of the work of Linda MacDougall, PhD candidate in Nursing at Western University, titled: “Relational Variables Impacting Socialization in the Healthcare Team”. Linda’s research will assess what factors come into play when nurses and physicians work with one another. Studies show that when a team of nurses and physicians effectively work together, patients do better physically and emotionally, so their length of stay is shorter, which reduces the cost of their hospitalization. “Studies also show that nurses and physicians are more satisfied in their jobs, so they stay longer at their place of employment while improving their care of patients,” said MacDougall. This study is investigating the relational variables between nurses and physicians that impact their working relationships in the healthcare team. Eligible staff will be able to participate via e-mail.

Federal candidates meet at Cardinal Carter By Bryan Jessop
LEAMINGTON – Old enough to vote or not, a gathering of students in Leamington were treated to a firsthand look at the democratic process. Cardinal Carter Catholic Secondary School welcomed Chatham-Kent-Leamington candidates to its gymnasium Wednesday, Oct. 9 — 12 days before the Canadian federal election — to hear their ideas and platforms as the nation prepares to cast its votes. Liberal candidate Katie Omstead, Green Party candidate Mark Vercouteren and New Democrat Party Tony Walsh provided opening statements, fielded a list of questions previously submitted by students and completed the one-hour gathering with closing statements.

St. Louis school contributes to FCC Drive Away Hunger Campaign
LEAMINGTON – Crusaders at St. Louis Catholic School are following in the footsteps of Jesus and making the Word of God come alive in their everyday lives. Students and staff at St. Louis had the privilege of doing their little part in sharing their food for their FCC Drive Away Hunger Campaign. Together they sent 1,302 pounds of food to the St. Vincent de Paul Food Bank at St. Michael’s Church, Leamington, for those in the community who are in need. This year the school made its donation in memory of their beloved Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Sylvia Lahoud. This was a beautiful way to give thanks to God for their many blessings received and those yet to come. (Submitted Photo)

Council submits additions for CWATS By Bryan Jessop
LEAMINGTON – Leamington’s vision for improvements to its section of the County Wide Active Transportation System (CWATS) could be described as “2020.” For next year, the municipality plans to build on the existing CWATS system with new initiatives focusing on two specific areas. The Talbot Street West (County Road 34)/County Road 33 intersection, if approved by the county’s Active Transportation Committee, will allow the connection of bike lanes on Talbot Street East to the paved shoulders of County Road 34 as well as future paved shoulders spanning from 200 metres east to 200 metres west of County Road 33. The affected area lies within the CWATS segment known “This is an as “LEAM-6.” exciting time for The other application to be submitted for change lies Leamington. We just within “LEAM-17,” specifically the portion of Point Pelee need to make sure Drive from the Sturgeon Creek bridge at the north end and the county’s on the junction with Mersea Road 12 at the south end. The apboard with us.” plication requests a “Change in Facility type” for LEAM— Hilda 17 as well as a “Functional Design” of the multi-use trail MacDonald portion running through the segment. Should the facility type in the Pelee Drive area be changed from paved shoulders to an off-road, multi-use trail from Mersea Rd. 12 to Point Pelee National Park, it would permit the construction of a connection from the urban area to the park via Robson Road and Monarch Lane. As per CWATS funding guidelines, costs for changes to the two areas would be split 60 per cent to the municipality and 40 per cent to the County of Essex. The Functional Design at County Roads 33 and 34 (LEAM-6) would cost Leamington $18,000 and the county $12,000 for a sum of $30,000. The Pelee Drive alterations (LEAM-17a) will cost about $50,000 — $30,000 from Leamington and $20,000 from the County of Essex. The specific source of funding for Leamington’s portion of the expenses will be determined during the 2020 budget process. The CWATS report, presented by director of infrastructure services Robert Sharon, also noted that multi-use trails are more appealing to users of “All Ages and Abilities” — AAA — than paved shoulders. Also, the new designation along with the Leamington Active Transportation and the Seacliff Drive East reconstruction plans that a separated multi-use trail could exist from the existing trail west of the Kinsmen baseball diamonds to Point Pelee National Park, excluding a section of paved shoulder over the Sturgeon Creek Bridge. These improvements will be possible if changes in facility type are made to CWATS designations on Bevel Line and Seacliff Drive to coincide with Leamington’s Active Transportation Plan and Seacliff Drive East design. “This is an exciting time for Leamington,” Mayor Hilda MacDonald stated in response to the report and its approval. “We just need to make sure the county’s on board with us.”

ESSEX COUNTY – The Essex Region Conservation Authority (ERCA) has begun to identify challenges and risks for the 2020 year, as the impacts of provincial changes remain to be seen. “Though we await clarification from the province, the letter received from Minister Yurek in August seems to imply that there might be further transfer payment reductions for Drinking Water Source Protection and Section 39 Flood and Erosion programs,” explained Richard Wyma, ERCA’s General Manager. “Other program areas, such as Restoration and Stewardship, the Community Museums Operating Grant for the John R. Park Homestead, and the funding for the Detroit River Canadian Cleanup effort as well are either at risk, or to date, we have no information on the status of funding yet for 2019.” Due to these funding cuts and unknown status of expected transfer payments, the Authority continues to project an operating deficit for 2019. Previous transfer payments for these programs totaled nearly $500,000 annually. For 2020, due to the uncertainties related to provincial transfer payments, ERCA is predicting a budget shortfall of $375,000 to $575,000, which includes over $200,000 in potential cuts to provincial transfers for flood management and source water protection on top of the $100,000 cut to ERCA’s flood management program in 2019; and over $100,000 in other potential lost program revenues. As well, as part of changes to the Conservation Authorities Act as a result of the More Homes, More Choice Act, ERCA will have to review how it delivers its programs and services, which will include the development of agreements with municipalities for programs and services that are partially or fully funded through municipal levies. The Act provides for a transition period before these agreements are required to be in place, however, ERCA will need to begin reviewing those programs with municipalities in 2020, which may impact on what programs and services are delivered in Essex Region at a time when they are most needed. “In addition to our longstanding role in protecting the citizens of Windsor, Essex County and Pelee Island from natural hazards such as flooding and erosion, our programs and services continue to demonstrate an ongoing and consistent response to real and serious problems and challenges in the region – land degradation, natural area coverage, water quality, and flooding and erosion,” said Irek Kusmierczyk, ERCA’s Chair. “Today, new issues such as phosphorous and harmful algal blooms, climate adaptation, and the need to support sustainable, resilient communities must be considered in meeting the needs of our municipalities,” said Kusmierczyk. “It seems to me that at a time when Ontario is warming faster than the global average, and when homes built in flood prone areas prior to the Authority’s establishment are experiencing catastrophic flooding, the integrated watershed management approach taken by ERCA and all Conservation Authorities is more important than ever before. The loss of these programs that are demanded by our residents and municipalities would put our watershed region in grave danger.” ERCA, along with the other Conservation Authorities and Conservation Ontario, continue to advocate for continued funding for delivery of these provincial programs. Administration and the Board will consider current reserves, reallocation from land acquisition, levies and fees for service, as well as program delivery and present options to reduce deficit projections due to uncertainties regarding additional funding cuts, lack of clarification regarding mandatory services and implications and timelines to undertake service delivery agreements with municipal partners.

Atom Grey celebrates win
Southpoint Community Trophy Atom Grey started off the holiday weekend celebrating a win versus Kingsville Green. In the early stages of the second, Grey had a few defensive lapses and allowed Green a couple of breakaways. Southpoint saw themselves two goals down. They battled hard and in the last minute of the second, Nicolas Magri took a shot from the point that made its way past a strong Kingsville goalie. Trophy’s strong play continued into the third period. Gavin Butiniello picked up a loose puck at the Kingsville blueline, skated it in and fired it over the Kingsville goalie. A few minutes later, Connor Rumble-Anastacio took the puck the length of the ice to put in Southpoint’s third goal. The game ended 3-2 in Southpoint’s favour.
Atom Stars defeat LaSalle On Oct. 13 the Southpoint Atom Stars took on the LaSalle Sabrecats White. The first period was a great battle back and forth; however, LaSalle was able to score with under a minute to go in the period. The Stars then came back fast and furious in the second period with a goal from Taylor Lefaive. Ava Carreiro scored another and just couldn’t be stopped, putting another two in the net to make the score 4-1. Lefaive found the net one more time in the third period to end the game 5-1. A great game was played by all. The Stars defence of Payton Walker, Natalie Edwards, Payton Insley and Cassandra Derksen played fiercely to help out Chloe Taylor between the pipes.
ENS Atom Black wins in Essex Erie North Shore Atom Black headed to Essex to take on the Teal Ravens in a holiday weekend matinee. Looking to find the win column, Black wasted no time opening the scoring in the first with a pair of gems from Hunter Cornies to end the first frame ahead by two. Black doubled the fire power in the second as William Loncke, Keaton Morphet and Jasper Dunford (2) all buried the biscuit to pull away from a frustrated Essex squad. Dunford maintains his torrid start to the season, completing the hatty in the third with Lake Severin making his debut on the score sheet with a beauty tally to cap the scoring. Sam Ward picked up the win between the pipes, allowing only one goal against to end the contest 8-1. Rocco Baillargeon, Colby Snoei (2), Cornies (2), Loncke (3), Morphet, Severin (2) and Dunford all fittingly went apple picking on the Thanksgiving weekend.

On April 16, 2018, the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change (MECP) granted a Renewable Energy Approval (“REA”) for the Romney Wind Energy Centre (the ‘’Project’’), a 60-megawatt wind energy facility located on private and public lands in the Town of Lakeshore, County of Essex and Municipality of Chatham Kent, south of Highway 401, and extending along Richardson Side Road and east of Wheatley Road north of the community of Wheatley, Ontario.

Flyers hold off Rockets By Bryan Jessop
(Southpoint Sun Photo)
Second period action behind the Rockets’ net.
The Leamington Flyers don’t have to be told that there are no easy two-point nights in the wild, wild West. Despite more than tripling the visiting Strathroy Rockets on the shot counter, a Thursday, Oct. 10 match at Highbury Canco Arena came down to the wire on the scoreboard. Leamington maintained its unbeaten home record with a 3-2 regulation victory, pulling to within a point of the London Nationals in the race for first in the Western Conference. On assists from Thomas Michaud and Adam Jeffery, Nicholas Beneteau put the Flyers up 1-0 by beating Joshua Diamond less than seven minutes after the opening faceoff. Michaud added to the home team’s lead on a power play effort, backed by a feed from Joey Johnson. Ben Diamond put the Rockets on the board just over five minutes later, although Josh King put the hosts back into a two-goal lead with less than 90 seconds to go in the period. Assists were drawn by Zachary Frescura and Cameron Armstrong. The Flyers continued to control the game’s momentum in the third, but continually ran into a sturdy performance from the Strathroy netminder. With an empty net and a sixth skater, the Rockets made it a one-goal game as Brandon Sanders beat Matthew Waite in the Leamington goal. The home team successfully guarded it’s defensive zone from there however, securing its ninth win of the season. The Flyers outshot Strathroy 46-14 and was 50 per cent on the power play — one for two — while the Rockets were denied on both of their man advantages. Leamington boarded the team bus for the first time in nine days to take on the St. Thomas Stars Friday, Oct. 11. The Flyers wound up on the winning side of a 7-3 final score. The Rockets will return to the Highbury Canco rink Thursday, Oct. 17 for a 7:10 p.m. opening faceoff.

2 years old - Border Collie/ mix - Female Hi, I’m Shawna. I love to play! Fetch is my all time favourite activity. I can play all day and will bark to let you know that I’m just not done playing yet. I have a lot of energy, but I am looking for a predictable household. Fast movement tend to scare me, so I am looking for an easygoing but active person who loves to have fun but also has some patience to let my true personality shine.
MANGO 3 years old - Female - Mango can be described as a very “needy” cat. She needs a calm quiet home with a very patient adopter. That calm quiet home with a patient adopter needs to be child-free because she is very fearful of children. It also needs to be a home without other cats and likely without dogs. And she will need time to adjust but once she does she has the potential of being a very loving companion.

Blades steal one from Sharks
By Bryan Jessop
Special teams and luck were not on the side of the Wheatley Omstead Sharks as a county rival rolled into town. The Sharks dropped a 3-2 decision against the Blenheim Blades at Wheatley Area Arena Wednesday, Oct. 9, bringing their record to two wins and four losses to remain in a four-way tie for fifth place in the PJHL’s Stobbs Division. Wheatley generated more chances, but struggled to capitalize on rebounds and came up empty handed on the man advantage. The first period was controlled mostly by the Sharks, although Blenheim struck first when David Cooke found a gap in the home team’s goal from the right side of the crease. With the first frame whittled down to about four minutes,

Lucas Poisson took a pass from Drew Denomey and started a trek toward the Blades’ goal from his own blue line. Circling wide to the right side of the opposition’s net, he hooked a sharp angle wrist shot into the top left corner to knot the score at 1-1. The second period offered more of the same, although Blenheim again jumped out to a one goal lead early on. Seth Henderson notched the game’s only power play tally 47 seconds after the first faceoff, although Wheatley again responded to produce a deadlock. Alex Anastaskos beat Chris Dewulf after being set up by Poisson with a tick over two minutes to go. The goal was his first as a Shark. With four-and-a-half minutes left in regulation, Nick Tetreault gave the Blades their third lead of the game.

The Sharks outshot the visitors in all three periods, but couldn’t produce a tying goal the third time around. Dewulf faced 44 shots while Kyle Metson — pulled for a sixth skater with just over a minute to go — was tested with 25. On Thursday, Oct. 10, the Sharks made a stop in Petrolia to take on the Flyers, where Wheatley won 3-2 in overtime. Shannon Olson opened the scoring for the Sharks late in the first, although a Petrolia power play tally by Eric Marsh evened the score about midway through the second. Brett Enns put Wheatley back on top with a shorthanded effort about five minutes into the third frame. The Flyers’ power play struck again on a Curtis Helps marker to bring the score to 2-2. Neither team could notch the game winner in regulation, forcing a three-onthree session of extra minutes. After 59 seconds of play, Devin St. Pierre registered his second goal of the season to provide the heroics and allow the Sharks to return home with two points. Jackson Ford earned the win in net as Wheatley outshot the hosts 27-20. The Sharks’ next home game will be Wednesday, Oct. 16 at 7:30 p.m. against the Wallaceburg Thunderhawks.

His first car was a 1949 Ford
The 1949 Ford was selected by the Fashion Academy of New York as the Car of the Year for excellence in design and style appeal. The first car owned by Larry Ross of Leamington was a light blue 1949 Ford two-door sedan purchased second-hand from Eaton Motors, the local Ford-Monarch dealership. It had independent front suspension and parallel leaf springs for the first time, giving it excellent handling and comfort. It was Bill Sherk a good car that gave good service, but Larry wanted it to blend in with other cars driven back then by teenagers. He took it to Lloyd Thomas’s body shop on Oak Street East where the hood ornament and trunk handle were shaved off. Hollywood mufflers and dual exhausts boosted the horsepower and Larry briefly became a member of the Leamington Road Runners Rod and Custom Club formed in the early ’50s. Meetings were held in the basement of Johnny Freund’s house, whose father operated an auto repair business. Larry’s ’49 Ford was soon replaced with a metallic green

1950 Ford two-door, the first year for push-button door handles. His next car was a ’52 Ford from the Ford dealer in nearby Kingsville, with the gas filler cap behind the rear license plate for the first time. Later still, Larry owned a 1954 Ford hardtop with a cream top and brown body, reflecting the popularity of two-tone cars back then, followed by a ’55 Merc, a ’57 Merc, then another ’54 Ford when he and Madeline were married. Larry also owned a ’33 Ford coupe with his brother Jim. They replaced the original flathead V8 with a ’55 Meteor V8 from the Ford dealer in nearby Essex. A newer transmission brought the gear shift up to the steering column (“three on the tree” we used to say) and an electric motor for the trunk lid moved it up and down. Motorcycles were also part of Larry’s early life. He acquired a 1940 Indian motorcycle at age 14 and later switched to Harleys when he belonged to the Erie Ramblers Motorcycle Club. The cars and bikes are now gone but the memories live on.
