Jack Layton urged Fenik’s NDP candidacy

Mayor seeks youth drug facility for Perth

Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

The late NDP leader Jack Layton asked Perth Mayor John Fenik to run for his party back in 2010. At his acclamation meeting at the Crystal Palace on Saturday, May 30, Fenik held up a handwritten note from Layton, who died in 2011, asking Fenik “When will you run for us for Parliament?” “Jack, wherever you are, God rest you. It’s time,” Fenik said, before a capacity partisan crowd, proving that attempts to woo Fenik, a longtime Liberal, over to the New Democrats, was many years in the making. “I could no longer see myself in the Liberal Party,” he explained, saying that the “clarity of vision,” and “leadership,” he sought, “was to be found somewhere else.” He was joined by keynote speaker Paul Dewar, the MP for Ottawa Centre. For the full story of the NDP event, please see page 3.

Mayor John Fenik has asked the municipal drug strategy committee to begin looking at Perth creating its own youth drug treatment facility. Fenik asked Coun. Jim Boldt to “bring back for a discussion (to the drug committee) the possibility of opening a satellite drug rehabilitation centre,” likely a partnership of some kind with the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre in Ottawa. “Even a two-bed facility… that’s what we really need,” said Fenik, during the Perth town council meeting on Tuesday, May 26. He said he wanted to see such a centre as it “could help young people within our community, that would be great,” so as they do not have to go to Ottawa for treatment. Coun. Jim Graff supported the idea, saying that the Perth police services board (PSB), on which he sits, has been discussing the “situation table” approach to policing, which seeks to bring various agencies – from police to social services to health

services – together to fight issues like youth drug abuse. “It’s certainly something we could look at (discussing),” said PSB chairperson Stephanie Grey. Boldt had just informed council that, in discussion with the drug committee, it was felt that “parents don’t have enough knowledge about what is going on in our community” regarding the drug scourge, or “just how available those drugs are.” In a later press conference in his office after the meeting, Fenik said that he was inspired to seek the facility after speaking with “a brilliant student with a very, very high IQ, who kind of went off the rails with drugs,” he said. In speaking with the T.R. Leger student, she told him that “it’d be important to have somewhere within your community, your own facility to have a treatment (centre) for youth.” Fenik suggested that Dave Smith centre staff could possibly be contracted in from Ottawa to run the facility. “Don’t you need to be in your own community, to slay See DRUG FACILITY page P2

New federal funding of more than $300,000 over the next four years is expected to help upwards of 40 businesses kick start their companies into full gear. Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington MP Scott Reid was on hand Friday, May 29 at The Excelerator Business Incubator and Co-Work Centre in Smiths Falls to announce $327,515 from the Eastern Ontario Development Program (EODP) funded by FedDev Ontario and administered through the local Valley Heartland Community Futures Development Corporation (CFDC). This will help sustain the 12,000 square foot centre, which opened last month in the Gallipeau Centre, its operations over the next four years, as well as wages, equipment and supplies, as well as training and programming. “My job is to pull the rabbit out of the hat and announce the funding, but to be clear about it, the way the funding is determined for the program had nothing to do with politicians, it had to do with the CFDC doing what it’s designed to do and come up with funding plans within a limited envelope,” Reid stated. “...And they do it very well.” Reid noted the expected beneﬁts of funding the centre, will lead to approximately 40 business start-ups and 20 new full-time and 10 part-time jobs each year. “I will do my best to spend it (funds) wisely and maximize this region,” stated Excelerator manager Richard Quigley. Susan Fournier, Valley Heartland CFDC executive director, stated that the incubation centre, which provides up and coming businesses with facilities and tools such as IT support, advice and information, is ensuring Lanark County

and North Leeds is “well-positioned to support growth.” “This (Excelerator) will be our card. It’s homegrown. We are bringing expertise to our communities...and it’s meant to be something where the support will be bigger than just Smiths Falls,” she said. “In working over the past three months, we been trying to make sure that other organizations understand that the focus is not to build this centre, but to build collectively over the region.” Those organizations include Chambers of Commerce across the region. Fournier stated The Excelerator has reached out to them and is partnering with the Chambers to offer valuable discounts to their members. Perth & District Chamber of Commerce general manager John LeVatte attended the May 28 funding announcement to show his support for the centre. “At the Perth Chamber, we deﬁnitely see the value in The Excelerator and incubator programs,” LeVatte said, noting that he’s currently talking with businesses in Perth about having a satellite ofﬁce for businesses who are on the verge of becoming bigger. “We’re looking at the options now and I think the opportunity is great.” Business plan competition Quigley used the funding announcement as an opportunity to launch The Excelerator’s new business plan competition. Open to emerging businesses in Lanark County and North Leeds, the initiative will allow eight companies the chance to earn space within the incubation centre to grow their businesses. “This is for companies that are homebased or emerging that aren’t ready for retail or commercial space yet. Through their business plans, we will bring them in and set them up with an advisory

team,” Quigley explained. “...We’re very excited about this.” Prizes are valued at $5,000 and includes eight months free rent ($2,000 value) for first place; four months free rent ($1,000 value) for second place; three months free rent ($750 value) for third place and fourth through eighth place will get one month free rent at The Excelerator ($1,250 value). In addition to rent-free office space (for two people with 24/7 access and administrative support), winners will also benefit from a panel of advisors, a program plan geared toward the business’ needs; 20 GB of Cloud storage on the centre’s secure domain; as well as access to their Wi-Fi lounge, board room and meeting/ training space. “The mission of The Excelerator is to create viable, sustainable, competitive businesses that stay in this area and grow and add to the economic growth of the entire region,” he said. “In my experience, there are many people growing and have something good, but they don’t know how to put together a business plan.” To get a jump on the competition, The Excelerator will be holding a business planning workshop June 17, prior to the submission deadline of June 26. Application forms and more information can be found on The Excelerator (www.xcelerator.ca) and Valley Heartland CFDC (www.valleyheartlandcfdc. com) websites or those interested can visit the centre at 501-361 Queen Street or call 613-205-1232. Once all applications are reviewed, 12 finalists will be chosen to make presentations July 28, with the announcement of the winners coming Aug. 7. They will make their move into The Excelerator’s second floor space on Sept. 1.

Whether foreboding or heralding a dramatic entrance on the federal election scene, when John Fenik stood to accept the New Democratic Party’s nomination as their candidate this past Saturday, May 30, the skies opened up, and a torrential, heavy downpour brought a temporary pause to the political proceedings, as even Fenik stood in awe, beholding the might of nature. After a second, though, not missing a beat, he turned to the crowd and said, “let it be known that the NDP are taking Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston by storm!” It was just the red meat the partisan crowd at the Crystal Palace were looking for. Fenik’s speech this past weekend, was the latest pit stop in a long road that took some interesting turns along the way. Late in the fall of 2013, he had stood before a large photo of Justin Trudeau and other red Liberal banners at Farrell Hall, for a fundraiser where Marc Garneau, a star of the Grit front bench, and Canada’s ﬁrst man in space, was the guest speaker. Fast forward to last weekend, and Fenik stood before the orange and brown NDP banner, with posters of the smiling, bearded Tom Mulcair posted nearby. “I could no longer see myself in the Liberal Party,” he explained, saying that the “clarity of vision,” and “leadership,” he sought, “was to be found somewhere else.” In fact, the seeds of his defection may have been planted many years ago – and

bottom, asked Fenik point blank: “When will you run for us for parliament?” The note came from the late Jack Layton. “Jack, wherever you are, God rest you. It’s time,” he said. It was time, as well, “for all of us to come under the tent to form Canada’s ﬁrst NDP government.” He made his decision to jump ship on May 11, and since then, he has seen “glimmerings of attack on character,” in the press. “I will never engage in character attack, on my fellow political opponents,” he said. “We will always take the high road.” He chastised the Harper Conservatives for what the opposition calls “muzzling” of federal scientists and for cancelling the long form census, promising that an NDP government would be “acting on evidence, not ideology,” and would allow scientists to “speak freely. We must listen to their advice. We must be leaders on climate change. We can’t let other do (the) heavy lifting for us.” Another criticism of the Harper government Fenik made was that Canada’s place in the world has changed, and not for the better. Whether going from a leader on climate change to a laggard on the issue, to taking a more stridently pro-Israel position in the Middle East, he wants to see “Canada (return) to the world stage as an honest broker. We must build a community of nations.” Closer to home, Fenik attracted a lot of applause for his attack on Bill C-51, which would expand the federal

County council approves bringing T9-1-1 to Lanark County The following are the highlights from the regular Lanark County council meeting held Wednesday, May 27 at the county building in Perth. Council has authorized a campaign to inform residents of Lanark County of the development of the T9-1-1 service, which provides people with hearing or speech disabilities with the opportunity to communicate to 9-1-1 services by text messaging. The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission has approved the service, which supports the automatic routing of 9-1-1 calls to the appropriate public safety answering point and automatically provides the caller’s contact and location information to the call answerer. Technical improvisations needed to provide T9-1-1 service have been made by wireless carriers and Central Emergency Reporting Bureau services. Rick Hannah, Lanark County emergency services coordinator, told the corporate services committee of the whole earlier this month the approved service will only be provided to hearing- or speech-impaired persons who have preregistered for it. “Once registered, they would be able to call 9-1-1 in the traditional way by dialling the digits on their cellphones. At this point, the call would be ﬂagged as coming from a pre-registered person with a hearing or speech impairment, and the 9-1-1 operator would respond by sending an SMS text message to the caller. The caller and operator would continue to communicate via text message.” A list of communities where the service is available in Ontario can be found at http://textwith911.ca/serviceavailability/ontario. Council has approved a public education program to include newspaper advertisements and radio announcements, along with inclusion in existing 9-1-1 public education programs. Support for Vials of Life program Council passed a motion to contribute $2,000 to the Vials of Life program. The concept is that an empty medication bottle (the vial) stores a sheet of important medical information and is kept in the fridge. In an emergency, responders know where to look for crucial information about a patient’s immediate health concerns, prescriptions and family contacts. The move comes following a presentation by Jeff Mills of the Mills Community Support Corporation and Patti Lennox of Community & Primary Healthcare (CPHC) at the community services committee of the whole meeting held earlier this month. Mills explained that Vials of Life can save lives, and pointed to an example of a person who was unable to speak when emergency responders arrived. Program partners include the Mills, CPHC and Lanark County Paramedic Service. Funds will support the costs for thousands of bottles, stickers and magnets. The program has been in place in Mis-

sissippi Mills for more than 10 years and organizers hope to expand it across the county. Once the vial kits are ready, they would be stocked at local facilities to give out to residents. Active Transportation Month proclaimed Warden Keith Kerr (Tay Valley Reeve) has proclaimed June as Active Transportation Month in Lanark County. The proclamation supports the county’s transportation master plan, which demonstrates a commitment to creating safer roads for cyclists and motorists, as well as supporting vibrant, safe and connected communities where overall health and quality of life are enhanced through cycling. Jeff Mills and Bob Woods, co-chairs of Mississippi Mills Bicycle Month, along with Melonie Sibbitt of the Lanark County Tourism Association, spoke to councillors about promoting the county as a healthy, active place while encouraging safety of all road users. The month features the Silver Chain Challenge, which is a friendly competition between Renfrew and Lanark counties to inspire and promote active and healthy communities. Residents and visitors in both municipalities compete for the most number of kilometres biked or walked over the month of June. This is the third year Lanark County has issued the challenge to Renfrew County

in partnership with the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. Get involved by visiting http://www. silverchainchallenge.ca/.

government’s ability to conduct surveillance on citizens. “The NDP will repeal this law,” he said to heavy applause. With the Liberals voting for this bill in the House of Commons, “we are going down a path fraught with danger,” regarding our civil liberties, said Fenik. As his speech proceeded, he appeared to check off a laundry list of red-line issues for progressives, like saving the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and maintaining Canada Post’s door-to-door mail delivery. But on economic matters, Fenik admitted that “I see our young people forced to leave here to ﬁnd opportunity elsewhere.” As a father himself, he sees young people who do stay having to work two or three part-time jobs to support themselves and their families. “This is not the quality of life I want I wanted for my children,” he said. “This region has suffered from neglect.” He chided incumbent Conservative MP Scott Reid for “taking our votes for granted and (we have been) given little back in return.” In closing, he promised that “we will win this riding back for the people…I will spare no energy reaching out.” NDP front bench support Fenik is running in what has traditionally been a heavily Conservative riding. Scott Reid has held it since 2000, way back when he won it under Stockwell Day’s leadership of the Canadian Alliance, one of only two rightwing MPs elected that year in Ontario. It would take a rather large Orange Crush indeed to dislodge Reid, but then, Ottawa Centre MP Paul Dewar knows a few things about taking on an intimidating opponent. Back in 2004, Ed Broadbent, who led the federal NDP from 1974 to 1989, wanted to make a return to federal politics. He sought the party nomination in Ottawa Centre, where he had to run against a teacher called Paul. It was an uphill battle for Dewar, who, though he was the son of former Ottawa Mayor Marion Dewar, lost the nomination to Broadbent. Two years later, though, Dewar replaced Broadbent as MP, after the social democratic elder statesman stepped down for family reasons. Looking around the Crystal Palace, Dewar joked that “I really like what they did with our bus shelters!” he said of the old Rideau Street facility, now home to the Farmers’ Market. Dressed for an onwards trek to the family cottage in Portland, Dewar is no stranger to the area. “I married into Perth,” said Dewar, who was on hand as the afternoon’s keynote speaker, and who placed several calls to Fenik trying to woo him to the NDP team. “My wedding was right here in Perth.” His father-inlaw is from Perth, and his wife, Julie Sneyd, attended Queen Elizabeth Public School and, later, Perth and District Collegiate Institute. Both his motherand-father-in-law taught at Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute, “so

I’ve gotten to know Perth and Smiths Falls very well.” While Dewar said he was glad to have Fenik on board, he noted that the Perth mayor was not the only new addition to the NDP team. A few days before Fenik went public with his move, Coun. Diane Freeman from Waterloo Region, also announced that she too was joining the party. “Change is coming. It is happening. It’s not just in Alberta,” he said. “Well, why all of a sudden the NDP? Yes, it is Alberta,” he said, but it is more than that – it is the possibility of “real change. They (voters) are looking for change in a substantive way.” He has seen many friends move from Ottawa to Carleton Place, and they are bringing their progressive voting records with them. They too “are looking for change.” Dewar himself decided to read up a bit on Reid before his return visit to Perth, by checking out his website. “I haven’t found much evidence of Scott Reid standing up for this area,” he said. He joked that, from his perch on the ofﬁcial opposition front benches in Ottawa, when he looks across the aisle at his Tory adversaries, he is saddened by what he sees. “Oh my God,” said Dewar, laughing. “They just look so tired. They’re outta gas. Peter McKay even had enough.” Dewar’s speech plowed a lot of the same earth as Fenik, promising that the NDP “will lead at the national level on climate change,” and that, on civil liberties and Bill C-51, “the Trudeau Liberals have lost their way. If you want to stand for civil liberties, you have to stand against C-51.” On a more local level, Dewar said that “eco tourism can ﬂourish here. These are economies that can be rejuvenated with eco tourism.” As for taxation, he did admit that the NDP would increase corporate taxes “a little bit,”

but not so much that Canada would not be competitive. He called Fenik a “community leader…who is looking out into the wider world,” whom he was proud to endorse.

The big outdoor tent at Stonefields Heritage Farm in Beckwith will be booming this month when Ambush drops by for an outdoor concert Friday, June 12 and a Father’s Day barbecue is held Sunday, June 21. and take in the tunes inside the tent or enjoy the music under the stars on Stonefields’ outdoor patio. A dance floor will also be set up for those who want to twist the night away. Brown said Stonefields is licensed and the Ambush concert is for those 19 and up. ID will be required. Snacks will also be available for purchase from a food truck on site for the event. Tickets are $15 per person in advance or

at 20.00 p.m.

popular Ottawa Valley band performed during last year’s Charity Event Giveaway and Stonefields is bringing them back for an outdoor concert underneath their big tent. Doors open at 7 p.m., with Ambush set to rock from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m. “It’s a really good fit with Stonefields to have that local talent out here,” she remarked. Guests can pick a seat, grab a drink

Father’s Day barbecue Families will descend on the heritage property Sunday, June 21 for a Father’s Day barbecue. The concept came about as a way to offer something different for dads on their special day. “There are so many places that do amazing things for Mother’s Day, but not Father’s Day,” Brown stated, adding the event fits right in with the Stonefields theme. “Stonefields is about love, it’s about family and about bringing people together for special occasions. There’s nothing we’d like to see more than a bunch of families coming out to celebrate.” The barbecue will be held under the big tent as well. Doors open at 4:30 p.m., with a barbecue dinner, buffet style, being served at 5 p.m. Preparing the meal will be one of Stonefields’ exclusive caterers, The Mixing Bowl, of Stittsville. The menu includes: corn, sweet pepper and black bean salad with basil; mixed greens with pickled cu-

cumbers, carrots and candied tomatoes with in-house balsamic whiskey vinaigrette; pasta noodle salad with roasted peppers, black olives, pesto and parmesan cheese; baked potato station with all the fixings, featuring beer braised onions, sour cream, green onions, Scotch bacon and shredded cheese; barbecued chicken legs with a molasses beer glaze; and mini-beef sliders with cheddar and ketchup made in-house. To top it all off, enjoy tea or coffee with your dessert of flambéed bananas with rum and vanilla crème anglaise. The event also serves as a fundraiser for the Lanark County Food Bank and guests are asked to bring along a nonperishable food item or monetary donation to the barbecue. “We reached out to them (Lanark County Food Bank) to see if they would be interested in us helping out…it’s another way for us to try and give back to the community,” Brown said. The cost to attend is $45 for adults, $22.50 for children seven to 12 and children under six eat for free. Reservations must be made in advance; call 613-253-3313. Brown said these two events are just the tip of the iceberg of what Stonefields hopes to offer the community in the future. “As much as our business attracts weddings and couples from out of the area, which is great, events like this let us meet our neighbours,” she added.

Stonefields Heritage Farm in Beckwith is opening up its picturesque grounds to the community this June with two very special events. Friday, June 12, they will welcome Ambush for an outdoor concert and families can explore the 120-acre property with dad Sunday, June 21 during a Father’s Day barbecue. After five years as owners of the event destination, located at 1985 9th Line Road, Stephanie Brown and Steve Malenfant have been making strides to become more involved in the community. They already run a successful Charity Event Giveaway initiative which was introduced last year, and the launch of these community events builds on that. “This is the first year Stonefields is opening its doors to the public,” Brown said. “We’ve had traditional weddings, but we’re really excited at diversifying our business and doing more public style events.” “We’ve had lots of requests to see the grounds,” she added. “…Come out and enjoy the space. There’s room to roam!” Smack dab in the middle of the event destination’s busiest time of the season (Brown notes that most weekends, Stonefields hosts two to three weddings), the first event, an evening with Ambush, is set for Friday, June 12.

Sun safety should be top of mind

he past few days may not be a good indication, but the season of warm weather and spending hours outside in the sunshine is upon us. It also serves as reminder of the devastating effects Mother Nature can have on our skin. June 1-7 marks national Sun Awareness Week and the sun can wreak havoc on our bodies in a number of different ways, not just through its dangerous rays, but through the hot and humid conditions as well. St. John Ambulance notes that many people slather on the sunscreen, but forget to take precautions when it’s scorching hot. To protect themselves, the organization first recommends people drink lots of water and avoid over exerting yourself if working outside in the heat. Build up your heat tolerance and take regular breaks. Wearing light coloured clothing of breathable fabrics can also make a difference. One precaution is to abstain from drinking alcohol or sugary drinks. Both

alcohol and sugar can cause dehydration and is a dangerous combination with the sun. Young children and the elderly should stay well-protected as they are particularly susceptible to heat-related illnesses, as are those who regularly work outdoors and athletes. We hear far too many stories of children and pets being locked in cars during balmy weather. St. John Ambulance states that “temperatures can skyrocket to 70 degrees Celsius within 10 minutes of a car being parked and the ignition turned off.” But how can you tell if you’re experiencing a heat illness? Anyone who has spent a prolonged amount of time in the sun and is experiencing symptoms such as heatstroke (skin is hot to the touch, headaches, nausea, rapid pulse), heat cramps or heat exhaustion (excessive sweating, dilated pupils, dizziness, blurred vision), should seek medical help. The sun’s rays are nothing to mess around with. We all want to enjoy warmer weather, but there is a way to do it safely.

away from the beauty parlour with Mary”. A whole year had passed, and my ringlets were a long way from being back to the length they were before what Mother called “Aunt Lizzie’s sticking her nose in where it didn’t belong.” It was a warm sunny day when we headed into Renfrew, and I was beside myself with anticipation because Aunt Lizzie, I knew, would be buying me a treat. It could be anything from store-bought underwear, to new hair ribbons. Of course we would have to stop at Ritza’s Drug Store first, so that Aunt Lizzie could visit with one of the clerks who had gone to school with her. The only thing I would like to have had was a bottle of Lilly of the Valley Perfume, but I wouldn’t dare be so bold as to ask for it.

And then we headed up Raglan Street and into Walker’s Store, the biggest store in Renfrew. Aunt Lizzie went in like she owned the place, and the clerks knew they could count on a good sale, and they swarmed over us like bees looking for blossoms.

We headed right for the silk stocking counter. The one with the long glass leg upside down, where the stockings were checked when sold to make sure there were no snags or flaws. Well! Was I in for a surprise! She ordered the clerk to pick out

a pair of her shortest silk stockings and without asking the price or anything, handed me the little brown paper bag. “Now you have your very own silk stockings,” she cooed. See MARY page 9

Regional event raises $51,000 to support Relay for Life Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario schools from the Lanark area, 12 in total, took part in a regional Catholic Education Coalition event at St. John Catholic High School (CHS) in Perth, on Friday, May 22. The event built on the highly successful Relay for Life event hosted by St. John CHS each year. For the event, each of the area schools had students, staff, parents, clergy, and parishioners arrive at St. John CHS at 10:30 a.m. A prayer service and words from guest speakers opened the event, after which the more than 900 attendees walked the school track in solidarity to support the Relay for Life initiative. Luminaries were sold in memory or celebration of loved ones touched

by cancer, to raise funds for the cause, which were then used to light up the track. The gathering of this coalition of 12 schools was an opportunity for the Catholic community to respond to the call to serve others, and to bring hope to those ďŹ ghting cancer. St. John CHS students also participated in the annual 12-hour overnight event, which gathered more than 350 students and staff to walk the track in teams beginning at 6 p.m. In total, the initiative raised more than $51,000 in donations for Relay for Life. Over the last 15 years, St. John CHS has raised more than $500,000 for cancer research through the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Relay for Life event. Submitted by the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario.

clothes in a hot dryer for several minutes has been found to kill ticks. It is important to know that Lyme disease transmission depends on the length of time the tick is attached. If the tick or nymph is removed within 24 hours of when it may have attached to you, then you have a minimal risk of acquiring Lyme disease. If the tick or nymph has been attached for longer than 24 hours and does carry the bacteria, you are at an increased risk of getting Lyme disease. When a tick has been attached to you greater than 24 hours and it looks like it has fed and is enlarged, it is recommended that you contact your health care provider and advise them of this. Remember, not all ticks carry the bacteria. Tick submissions to the health unit

MARY From page 8

I was thunderstruck! I would have settled for a little pair of ankle socks with lace around the cuffs like bad Marguerite wore to the Northcote School. But silk stockings? Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine owning silk stockings at six years of age. Sure, my sister Audrey who was much older than I was just got her ďŹ rst silk stockings for her 16th birthday! When we got back to the farm and Mother saw what Aunt Lizzie had bought me, she was only slightly less pleased than when I had my ringlets cut off. She told me to put them right upstairs in my washstand drawer for safekeeping. But I begged her to let me keep them with me until after supper. I sat through the entire meal with the little brown bag in front of my plate and endured sneers from my brother Emerson who said when I wore them. they would probably come up to my armpits. He was right, of course. They were ladies stockings, but just owning a pair of silk stockings was enough for me. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll grow into them,â&#x20AC;? Aunt Lizzie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ya, when sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ready to get married...if anyone will have her,â&#x20AC;? I heard Emerson say under his breath.

Well, eventually it was time for Aunt Lizzie to board the CPR train in Renfrew and head back out to Regina. I even took the little brown bag with the silk stockings to the train just to show Aunt Lizzie how thrilled I was. Back on the farm, and days later, the joy of owning something I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wear started to fester. I knew the stockings would ďŹ t Audrey, but I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t generous enough to just hand them over to her. I asked her if she would like to buy them, and she could have them cheap. She tore upstairs to her drawer and brought down her hankie where she had tied in the corner all the money she owned. She counted out 12 cents. And then I remembered all the times Audrey helped with my homework, sang to me at night in bed, protected me in the dark, and walked out to the outhouse with me when I was frightened. I picked up a big round brown penny and handed her the paper bag with the silk stockings in it. I ďŹ gured it was a good trade. Interested in an electronic version of Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s books?

UCDSB ICE Challenge promotes youth entrepreneurship jwestendorp@perfprint.ca

Business isn’t just for grownups anymore. The Upper Canada District School Board hosted the ICE (Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship) Change the World Challenge at the North Grenville Municipal Centre on May 28. Five schools participated in the event, including Athens District High School, Gananoque Intermediate and Secondary School, Carleton Place High School, South Grenville District High School and Almonte and District High School. Teams could request up to $1,000 in funding for their business designs. Some of the businesses were for proﬁt and others weren’t. “I think with the business angle, it makes the competition a little more rigorous,” said Eric Hardie, one of the organizers and principal at Carleton Place High School. “With the younger students (in the previous two challenges), their ideas were more project like. Here, the presenta-

tions are a little more focused on the numbers and the judges are pushing them for more information, in terms of viability.” A total of 21 teams, with students ranging from grade four to 12, took part in the three challenges. Students presented their business design in a ‘Dragons Den’ style competition. Each team presented their business idea to the judges – Betsy Simpson and Sandra Lawn – then they were questioned on the various aspects, to ensure sustainability. “They’re a pretty great bunch here today,” said Hardie. He explained the challenge was designed to promote forward thinking and entrepreneurship in students. The ﬁrst to present was the team from Athens. Their business was called ‘Camello Bottles,’ which is a brand of reusable water bottles to stop plastic water bottle pollution in their school. The plan is to provide each student at ADHS a reusable water bottle and then start branching out into the Athens community.

The second team to present was from Carleton Place. Their business was called ‘ZesCube,’ which is an organization run by three students at CPHS, whose mission it is to maximize the impact 3D printing can have on the education system. The plan is to utilize 3D printing as much as possible, to educate students who wish to get ahead of the technology game when they graduate. Next up was South Grenville. Their business was called ‘Eco Student,’ which is an android based application (App) designed to improve the lives of high school students. The plan is for the App to provide an interactive calendar that can updated by teachers and viewed by parents and students, to remind them of important dates. This App would also include a feature to allow students to make electronic notes, which would save time and money by reducing the need for photocopies. Almonte student Oliver Barber’s business is called ‘B3E 3Dprinted bodies,’ which already has a vendor’s rank in two on-

line forums and 45 back orders. The plan is to continue making 1 to 10 scale models of car and truck bodies to sell to consumers, using a 3D printer. The student already has one printer and requires a second, to expand his existing business. Each body takes about a week to produce, so a second printer would double production time. He explained there are no other people or businesses producing 3D printed bodies currently.

He said his proﬁt margin is very high, as each printed body sells for roughly $100, and costs between $1 and $2 in materials to produce. The ﬁnal presenters were from Gananoque. Their business was called ‘Pass Down the Knowledge-E,’ which is designed to help Chinese’s students improve their understanding of the English language. The plan is to have the students from Suzhou International School

speaking with seniors from local nursing homes in Gananoque, through FaceTime. The plan has a dual purpose – improving the students English skills and at the same time, providing companionship for seniors. Each team was awarded funds to continue on with their business designs following the challenge. “The Change the World challenges will run again next year,” said Hardie.

More commitment to Canadian history needed in today’s schools surveys in the lead-up to major events tied to this country’s very significant past. In our house the results of those surveys are always greeted with great interest and, in Reflections recent times, disappointment. By Jeff maguire My wife and I and our son almany schools nation-wide, ways take a stab at the newspaper teaches young people Cana- question and answer quiz which dian history and specifically that of the First and Second World Wars. Seward, who has won national awards for his efforts, has also led student trips to the battlefields of Europe, including Vimy Ridge. As a result of Seward’s initiative Library and Archives Canada, the Canadian War Museum and the Royal Canadian Legion have all become involved in this incredibly worthwhile educational program. Still, war history remains one of the most notable areas of deficiency when Canadians are surveyed these days. Answers embarrassing So-called “streeters” during which television and radio reporters ask the public questions on relevant topics of the day produce some truly incredible answers. Embarrassing answers in fact! In April I watched a segment during which a TV reporter asked people on the street when and where the Battle of Vimy Ridge was fought. One chap knew it was a Canadian battle of the First World War but couldn’t identify the country where it happened or the year. His was the best answer! The others, men and women, identified the location as alternately Quebec (province), Saskatchewan and, yes, Korea. Well, there was a war in Korea in the 1950s so he was on to something there I suppose. Some of those questioned couldn’t provide any kind of answer. They had never heard of Vimy Ridge or its significance to Canada. Those questioned all appeared to be adults over the age of 25 although none looked more than 40-yearsold. I wonder how most young Canadians, of secondary school age, would answer that question. Not terribly well I suspect. It isn’t only our war history that many Canadians find themselves deficient in when questioned. Historica Canada (formerly the Historica-Dominion Institute) conducts regular

regularly appears in our daily paper on Canada Day. I certainly won’t claim that we know all the answers. But on average we score very well while addressing the Q and As. Some of the questions are very difﬁcult. Checking the answers simply adds to our education.

The most recent disappointing survey results to come to my attention relate to Victoria Day, the annual statutory holiday we observe in Canada in May. To me the biggest shock was that more than 10 per cent of those questioned in the national survey said Victoria Day is “an

American holiday.” It’s true that we do share some holidays with our friends and relations south of the border. Labour Day springs to mind. So does Christmas and New Year’s, although obviously those holidays See HISTORY page 12

I recently exchanged emails with a long-time acquaintance who contacted me with regard to a column I wrote in mid-April about the contributions of Canadian First World War general Sir Arthur Currie. That particular column was written in the wake of the 98th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge in northern France in April 1917 which many historians feel marked Canada’s “coming of age as a nation.” Although not well known in his homeland war historians consider Currie to be one of the top generals of the First World War. I think I am reasonably well informed about the world wars. But until I watched a recent four-part television documentary series, narrated by noted Ottawa-based historian Norm Christie, I possessed very little information about Currie and his quite remarkable military career. My friend, a retired secondary school principal, said he understands why so many people are not informed about Canadian history, including this nation’s involvement in the wars of the 20th Century and the tremendous human toll. He says he learned about Canada’s First World War involvement, not from his father who was a First World War veteran and not at school, but rather from other sources as he grew up. In his email he told me he feels that “more education about our signiﬁcant past is sorely needed.” In my response I told him I believe that at this point in time, 70 years after the end of the Second World War in Europe (the 70th anniversary of VE Day was marked a month ago), so much time has passed that most Canadians don’t know or aren’t interested in our war history. I certainly don’t blame teachers! They are tasked with delivering the current curriculum which is not always of their choosing. In my experience history teachers are very well educated about our past, including war history. It’s true however that some teachers have chosen to expound on the subject. I am thinking about people like Blake Seward at Smiths Falls and District Collegiate Institute and his excellent Lest We Forget project. Seward’s project, which has now been adopted in

HISTORY From page 11

have much wider acceptance in the world. Canada is the only Commonwealth nation and the only country in the world that marks the birthday of Englandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Queen Victoria. It is always held on the Monday closest to May 24, the day Victoria was born way back in 1819. I was amazed at the answers this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s survey produced. Many of those questioned could not identify who Victoria was, or the country she called home. A related query about the so-called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Victorian Eraâ&#x20AC;? left even more people scratching their heads. This wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t part of the survey. But I wonder how many Canadians would be stumped if asked where the city of Victoria is located in this country and

who it is named for? I think the percentage would be alarmingly high. We simply donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do a good job of teaching our own history to our own citizens. If Canadian history is not stressed during a young personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s formal education then it is even more unlikely theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be well informed later in life. More focus I would like to see more national initiatives in this regard. But somehow I doubt my approach would gain broad acceptance. The interest just isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there. In our secondary schools today the annual calendar is very full and I am told students canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to miss much time in class if they intend to carry their subjects through to a successful conclusion. Surely that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t preclude exam-

ining the structure of history courses and revising them accordingly? I believe Canadian history should be mandatory rather than optional in our high schools. We also need many more teachers like Blake Seward of Smiths Falls who is so dedicated to putting faces to the names of Canadians killed in action during the world wars. Today (Thursday) I am among a delegation from Carleton Place attending the Canadian Aviation Hall of Fameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s induction ceremony at Pearson Airport in Toronto. One of those being inducted this year is Carleton Place native Captain Arthur â&#x20AC;&#x153;Royâ&#x20AC;? Brown, the First World War ace who shot down famed German pilot Baron Manfred von Richthofen (later nicknamed the Red Baron) on April 21, 1918 in northern France. I have written extensively about Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s induction (he died in 1944 at age 50) in this

space recently. But if many Canadians donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the origins of Victoria Day, how many would know who Roy Brown was? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Red Baron, the highest scoring ace of the First World War, who is the more recognizable of the two. And I suspect only a small percentage of Canadian young people today could identify Richthofen! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll wrap up with this story about Queen Victoria which epitomizes what I am writing about this week. As a teenager in the late 1960s I took a summer job as a labourer for my uncleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s service station maintenance company, based in Chatham, Ontario. One of the gas stations we serviced was located in the hamlet of Bothwell, between Chatham and London. The owner was a very funny, elderly gentleman named Jimmy Holman. He always had a story. Jimmy

Yesteryear will add some extra sunshine to your summer Sunny, oh so funny, and brimming with the romantic optimism of the postwar era. That’s how the play Yesteryear is best described – the perfect summer entertainment. And it’s coming soon to Perth’s own Studio Theatre. Joanna McClelland Glass’ comedy/ love story Yesteryear takes place in 1948 in the small prairie town of Raglan, Saskatchewan, where painter David McTavish has been living ever since he caught his fiancée, Mildred Douglas, cheating on him the night before their wedding. David is a devastated, lovesick guy whose whole life is centered around the fact that his near-marriage to Mildred didn’t work out, nearly 15 years earlier.

From left: Joanna McAuley Treffers, Lucas Tennant and Alison Kirkpatrick rehearse a scene from the Canadian Prairie comedy Yesteryear, premiering at the Studio Theatre on Thursday, June 25. Submitted photo

Then one night the telegraph operator at the hotel brings the news that David has won the massive sum of $120,000 in the Irish Sweepstakes. Soon, dozens of townspeople are giving him advice regarding how he should use the mon-

ey, like rebuilding the town’s library or building a new hockey rink. But David McTavish isn’t really interested in the money. For him, the biggest news is that Mildred Douglas is coming back to town... Yesteryear is a beautifully written comic love story with a little post-war left-wing politics thrown in (Saskatchewan had just elected a CCF government) great characters, lots of boozing, gossiping, hockey talk, salty language, and even a local bordello, Emma Day’s Happy House. Director Norma Cummings has See YESTERYEAR page 14

Cases of Caring group plan special sewing day June 6 in Portland In 1965 a group of dedicated moms and some dads, kick started a CHEO volunteer association. Today, 50 years later, the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario continues to celebrate the countless community action groups and volunteers who dedicate their time, energy and skills in many capacities to assist CHEO daily in maintaining their excellence in pediatric care. In our own backyard since 2005, Cases of Caring is a local group of women from Portland, Westport, Elgin and surrounding areas who meet once a month at a members’ home to sew colourful, fun pillowcases for the children at CHEO. These pillowcases not only brighten the room of young patients but the pillowcases become the property of each recipient and the group have received several letters of thanks from both children and parents. This group depends on self-funding and donations from local service clubs

and organizations, including the Westport and Elgin Lions and Lionesses, Westport Legion, Retired Teachers of Ontario, and Retired Women Teachers of Leeds, Grenville and Lanark and Portland United Church UCW. They also receive donations from individuals in the community for which they are very grateful. Last year they won the Scotland Funeral Home Community Service Award, of which they are extremely proud. The sewers know that the support they receive from their community allows them to continue bringing some happiness to the children. They continue to be extremely good shoppers, snapping up bargains wherever they ﬁnd them, scouring fabric shops, yard sales for just-right fabric for the young recipients of the pillowcases. This group is diligent, always very careful to maintain good quality as well as a good deal. With an approximate cost of

$10 per case and a donation of over 25 pillowcases per month for a 10-month sewing year (breaking for summer) in 10 years, this dedicated volunteer sewing group have contributed more than $25,000 in pillowcases for CHEO patients. This sewing group of 15 women retirees continues to ﬂuctuate given health and travels that affect their membership, however there remains a

core group who sustain them, mostly members of Portland United Church. This group of dedicated volunteers remain ever grateful that they have this opportunity to be of service to others. As summer approaches they are already planning their fall sew fests. However, before they wrap up this spring season the Cases of Caring group have a very special Sewing Day planned and the public is invited. On

respondents say that cost is the biggest concern. When it comes to paying for renovations, 43 per cent of those who would consider renovating say they would use money from their savings account or Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA) while 40 per cent would use a home equity line of credit (HELOC). Giles says planning ahead and having a financial approach in place will help reduce stress. “Whether you hire someone to do your renovation or you do-it-yourself, having financial flexibility is key to reducing the worries that often come with a home renovation,” said Giles. “Home renovation projects, whether large or small, are often going to come with both surprises and challenges,” said Jeremy MacPherson, renovation expert and judge of the W Network’s new show Game of Homes. He notes that doing research ahead of hiring a contractor can bring peace of mind with your hiring decision. Call for references, get several bids and do the due diligence on your preferred contractor’s track record. “Factoring in an extra 10 to 15 per cent on top of your anticipated costs can help keep you from running overbudget,” says Giles. “Be prepared to make the trade-off decisions that inevitably come with renovations, and remember that at the end of the project you should love your home more than when you started.” Source: TD/CNW

With the spring home-buying season in full swing, real estate is a hot topic of conversation and many Canadians may be asking themselves: is now the right time to move? However, a recent TD survey of existing homeowners and those planning to own a home reveals that renovation is also on the minds of many Canadians. In fact, 56 per cent of respondents have considered, or would consider, renovating their current home or buying a ﬁxer-upper rather than buying a move-in-ready one. “Many of our customers tell us they love their neighbourhood but their current home doesn’t have enough space or it could use some upgrades,” said Pat Giles, associate vice-president, real estate secured lending at TD. “Situations like these motivate homeowners into making an important choice – do you move or do you renovate your current home?” Of the TD survey respondents who would consider renovating, the top three reasons for choosing to go the renovation route are: • To increase their property value (69 per cent); • To upgrade their home’s look and feel (59 per cent); • To improve home efﬁciency – e.g. new furnance (48 per cent). But renovation does not come worry free. When considering the choice to renovate, six in 10 (61 per cent) of all

THIS WEEK IN

Renos come with challenges

Volunteer opportunities available at this summer’s Classic Theatre Festival As the Classic Theatre Festival gears up for its sixth season of professional productions of shows from the golden age of Broadway and the London stage, there are many ways for community members to get involved. As part of the festival’s preparations, volunteers are being sought for a variety of rewarding opportunities to get involved with this summer’s productions, which include Neil Simon’s comedy, Barefoot in the Park (July 10 to Aug. 2) and Frederick Knott’s, Wait Until Dark (Aug. 7 to 30). Volunteer roles include front-of-house staff, working on the painting and construction of sets (in conjunction with Stratford Festival designer Jennifer Goodman), assisting with marketing the festival and the Town of Perth as a tourist destination, and helping out with concessions. “We have been blessed with great volunteers who really get into the spirit of welcoming the thousands of visitors to Perth who attend the festival each summer,” says artistic producer Laurel Smith. “One of the most consistent comments from those visitors is how warm and friendly our volunteers are, which leaves a great impression, and encourages repeat visits, which beneﬁts everyone in Perth.” Those volunteers also earned the festival top marks in the Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization’s OHVation customer service program. One of those volunteers is Madeleine Labelle, a theatre fan who began volunteering with the company in 2011 and has since become president of the organization’s board of directors. “As a theatre lover, I was so excited six years ago when I heard that the Classic Theatre Festival was bringing professional theatre to Perth,” Labelle says. “I wanted to be part of it – and what better way than to be on the volunteer team? I love the experience of

for their own food) during their stay in Perth, and many close friendships have developed as a result. While billet hosts receive a season pass for two and an invite to all festival social gatherings and opening nights, many offer to host because of the unique experience of living with a professional performer. Some individuals have hosted performers every year since the festival began, developing Facebook friendships, following the actors in subsequent TV, ﬁlm and stage roles, and often meeting their families as well.

July 10, there is still much activity on the horizon, including the collection of books for the summer-long sale that will beneﬁt the Save-a-Seat program, which opens up free theatre seats to low-income members of the community. To donate books, call 613-264-8088 or email info@classictheatre.ca. Meantime, the Early Bird Special, which offers audience members the opportunity to enjoy a 10 per cent discount along with the freedom to choose their dates closer to summer, is on until May 31. Tickets can be purchased at www. classictheatre.ca, by calling Tickets Festival book sale Please at 613-485-6434, or by visiting While the festival does not open until the ticket outlet at 39 Foster Street.

Host families needed for Japanese students

Madeleine Labelle, seen here last month at Festival of the Maples in There are two groups of Japanese time. They are at school during the day Perth, started at the Classic Theatre Festival as a volunteer and is now teens heading to this area August 2015. so it’s a little less intense for families. No The ﬁrst group consists of 14-year-old matter which age group a family decides president of the board. working in such a positive environment and meeting the patrons who come to be entertained and to have a good time. You hear such wonderful stories about people after they see a good show. They want to share what is going on in their lives, and relate it to what they just saw on stage. It makes for a lot of wonderful moments.” Individuals who wish to volunteer can either email info@classictheatre. ca or call Labelle who, in addition to working as president, is also the volunteer co-ordinator, at 613-279-1991. Community hours, co-op placements Because the festival is a registered charity, it can sign for the community hours required by high school students; it also offers co-op work placements during the summer. Some of the previous years’ volunteers and co-op students

have gone on to ﬁnd summer employment with the festival. This year, there’ll be a new volunteer role: that of the costumed greeter. “We’re looking for folks who love to dress up and promote the town of Perth, and on a daily basis, they’ll be roving the streets in period costume promoting our Perth through the Ages walking tour, the Lonely Ghosts Walk, the festival’s mainstage shows, and all the other great summer attractions Perth has to offer,” says Smith. Hosting actors In addition, the festival is still looking for a few more places where the outof-town actors and stage managers can live for anywhere from a two-week to a six-week period over the summer. Billets provide a spare bedroom, and actors share a bathroom and kitchen (and pay

girls from Japan’s Denenchofu School. Their main goal is to immerse themselves in Canadian family life and practice their English. The group is due to arrive on July 29 and will stay until August 11. The second group is a mix of 17- and 18-year-old boys and girls from Ritsumeikan Uji School, in Japan. They will spend their weekdays taking English as a Second Language program at Carleton Place High School and spend time with their host families on evenings and weekends. Local teachers will instruct the students while they are at school. This group will arrive Aug. 16 and leave Aug. 26. That’s where area families come in. While the younger group will be with their host families throughout the day, older students spend much of their time at school, which is easier for families who might not be home during the day-

to host, the experience is well worth it. In order to qualify to host, families must be able to provide the student with his or her own room and anyone over the age of 19 must pass a vulnerable sector background check. Organizers also hope to match students with his or her ideal family, which means the more family members, the better, especially if there are teens around the same age, Buses are provided for the older students to and from Carleton Place High School daily with buses from Perth and Smiths. Students residing in Carleton Place might require a drive to or from school, or they can walk if they are close enough to the school. Compensation is provided to families for the student’s stay. Anyone looking for more information can check out the website at http://mliesl. com/families.html or call JoAnn and Katie at 613-264-8843/613-983-1630.

These meetings with our community partners is important as it keeps the line of communication open as well as facilitate shared knowledge. Thanks to OHS for being a community partner with LAWS.

Latest Cooper offering a beautiful mess MOVIE: Aloha STARRING: Bradley Cooper, Emma Stone, Rachel McAdams, John Krasinski, Danny McBride, Alec Baldwin and Bill Murray DIRECTOR: Cameron Crowe RATING: PG Life is often messy. It’s emotional, it’s complicated, it’s hard to understand, but these are the stories Cameron Crowe loves to tell. No one does messy better than him. Brian Gilcrest (Bradley Cooper) has returned to Hawaii. He’s come back as a private contractor representing the interests of billionaire, Carson Welch (Bill Murray). Brian’s job is to negotiate a deal with the natives to allow the military and Carson’s company to use the Hawaiian’s land. For Brian, this isn’t just another deal; this is a homecoming. Brian was working in the Middle East and things went bad. Now he’s trying to pick up the pieces of his life. The ﬁrst step is negotiating this deal, but that’s closely followed by dealing with his ex-girlfriend, Tracey (Rachel McAdams), who he left 13 years ago. Tracey is married to the enigmatic Woody (John Krasinski), and has two beautiful children. She’s put her life back together

MARK HASKINS

since Brian walked out on her. She got over Brian yet there’s still something between them. Things left unsaid that need to be said. Then there’s Captain Allison Ng (Emma Stone). Allison is a rising star in the military. She’s a whirlwind of energy and positivity. She’s also Brian’s liaison and babysitter. Brian attempts to keep his distance, but there’s something undeniable about her, something that causes him to constantly look her way. Cameron Crowe doesn’t waste a lot of time with a preamble. He simply throws you right into the middle of this emotionally messy story, and expects you to deal with it. It’s a tricky game, but Crowe uses it to create an intimacy between the audience and his ﬁlm. We get thrown into the middle and we’re forced to stop thinking, and just experience the pain, the joy, the surprise, the betrayal, and the love.

It’s an eclectic cast for an eclectic set of characters. From Bill Murray’s Bond-like villain, to Alec Baldwin’s over-the-top general, to Danny McBride’s quirky commander, these performances are incredibly good. John Krasinski says little, but speaks volumes with just a gesture or a look, and Rachel McAdams’s sensitivity, subtlety and humour are remarkable. Emma Stone’s character is just shy of being a cartoon character with her high energy, and her almost annoyingly positive attitude. Yet she also manages to make Captain Ng genuine. It’s a delightful performance. It would be difﬁcult to pigeon hole Bradley Cooper’s character. He’s a jerk, he’s charming, he’s insensitive, he’s insightful, he’s conﬁdent and he’s self-conscious. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature.

Reader wonders whether oil blunder will have after effects “Hi Brian, I always read your column with great interest. Now I have a question I am hoping you can answer. I brought my 2015 Subaru Forester to the dealership for an oil change and other maintenance work a few weeks ago. After I had left the service department, I drove a few kilometres before realizing that my vehicle was not behaving as usual when I pressed the gas pedal (RPMs quite high, sluggish response). Increasingly worried, I stopped in at another Subaru dealership’s service department where the technician test-drove my vehicle then checked the engine oil level, which turned out to be double what it should have been. He then drained out all of the oil and proceeded to replace the engine oil and ﬁlter, as a courtesy. I informed the original dealership’s service department of the error, for which they apologized profusely and then reimbursed me for the invoice I had paid. I have done a bit of research on the consequences of driving a vehicle overﬁlled with engine oil. I estimate that my Forester was driven for 15-20 km (no highway) before the problem was corrected. Do you think that this may have caused some lasting damage to my vehicle, and if so,

Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER

what should I watch for and what should my next actions be? Thank you very much for answering my questions, have a great day.” M While one would be right to never expect this type of treatment from a dealership service department; mistakes happen. Driving that short a distance at lower speeds shouldn’t have created any problems for the engine. Over a longer term at higher speeds and colder temperatures, the excessive amount of oil may stress a number of engine oil seals leading to leaks. I would suggest monitoring the engine for oil leaks (by simply checking the area where it’s parked overnight). Don’t forget that with our warmer weather and the use of air conditioning there will be a normal water/condensation drip under the car near the engine side of the ﬁrewall. “Hi Brian, I have a 2014 Toyota Camry, which I purchased new in June 2014. The problem I am having

is hesitation when I accelerate normally from a stop or when turning a corner. I have found similar complaints from Camry owners on the Internet. I’m always afraid to make a turn in front of someone in case it hesitates in the intersection and I will get t-boned, or from a start if the driver behind me thinks I am going and my car hesitates and may get rear-ended. I have notiﬁed the dealership and they said they have had no such complaints. However, the parts manager suggested the car might have been trying to switch gears, or I have bad gas. Neither in my opinion is the problem. Do you have any suggestions what might be the problem and who would be able to clarify the problem. It also happened on Highway 401 when I tried to pass another vehicle and it hesitated before it accelerated. The problem is it happens infrequently but is unnerving. Someone also suggested the ecosystem in the newer cars might be a problem. Someone also suggested the computer might have to be scrambled and reset. Any help would be appreciated.” J From the research I’ve done this symptom is most likely related to the transmission’s shifting. As carmakers try to jam more gears into the same or smaller

transmission casing they have gotten rather imaginative in conﬁguring shift controls and clutch pack activations. For every up or down shift a transmission does, it engages one or more of its clutch packs. These clutches are stacked in a drum. Certain shifts involve the pairing of clutch packs at opposite ends of the drums. These are sometimes harsh under moderate to heavy throttle and often can be accompanied by a hesitation/delay. For that reason engineers choose seldom used downshifts for these circumstances such as a second to ﬁrst gear downshift for example. This symptom can be made worse by the applications of fuel saving features such as early-lock up torque convertors and drive by wire throttle systems. Usually these events are ones that drivers become accustomed to over a short period of time and can adjust their driving

and throttle habits to minimize. That might not be the case here. If you haven’t done so already, I would recommend getting a dealership to check to see if any of your vehicle control computers have any available software updates and get them done. They should also check to see if any diagnostic trouble codes have been locked in memory, which might relate to this. One of the most unusual and interesting auto shows is on this weekend and if you’re a VW camper fan, this one is not to be missed. Busfusion, a Volkswagen camper camping event returns to the Almonte Fairgrounds on the banks of the Mississippi River from June 4 to 7. Activities for the entire weekend and other details can be found at www.BusFusion.com. On Saturday, June 6 a CruiseIn for Cancer is happening from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Morris-

1952 Ford convertible was a wedding present from bride’s parents Bob and Jini Jackson were married in 1952. He lived in Leamington, Ontario, and she came from Detroit. For their wedding present, Jini’s parents gave the newlyweds a new light blue 1952 Ford convertible. It was purchased from a dealership in Detroit and shipped across the border as a gift. Their car was identical to the 1952 Ford convertibles produced at the Ford plant in Windsor for the Canadian and Commonwealth markets. The only difference would be the serial numbers. All Canadian Fords for ’52 were powered by a ﬂathead V8 with 239 cubic inches cranking out 110 horsepower. American buyers could choose between the V8 or a six with 215 cubic inches and 101 horsepower. Ford had introduced its ﬁrst automatic transmission – Fordomatic – in 1951, and this

was a popular option in 1952 as well. The 1952 Ford came in three series: the budget-conscious Mainline, the mid-priced Customline, and top-of-theline Crestline, which had three models: the Crestline Sunliner convertible, the Crestline Victoria 2-door hardtop, and the Crestline Country Squire station wagon. A total of 22,534 convertibles were built. Henry Ford once said you could buy a Model T in any colour as long as it’s black. For 1952, Ford offered a rainbow of colours: Raven Black, Woodsmoke Gray, Sheridan Blue, Alpine Blue, Shannon Green Metallic,

Meadowbrook Green, Glen Mist Green, Hawaiian Bronze, Sandpiper Tan, Carnival Red Metallic, Sungate Ivory, and Coral Flame Red. Convertible tops came in black, gray-tan, and green. Before getting married, Bob Jackson had owned a 1950 Meteor convertible purchased new in Leamington and built at the Ford plant in Windsor (the Meteor was the Canadian version of the Ford and none were built in the U.S.). When Bob and Jini received the wedding present of their 1952 Ford convertible, they began driving a Ford which for the first time had a curved one-piece windshield. Also, brake and clutch pedals for the first time were suspended from the firewall instead of coming up through the floor. And another first for ’52 was the location of the gas filler cap. Ever since

the early ‘30s, the ﬁller cap had been on the driver’s side of Ford cars. But if you pulled in for gas at a service station with the pump on the passenger side of your car, the nozzle and hose might not always reach. For greater convenience beginning in 1952, the ﬁller cap was in the middle at the back, right behind the license plate.

QE school raises $1,126 for Champions for Kids Queen Elizabeth Public School has raised more than $1,126 for a children’s charity. The money was raised for the Upper Canada District School Board’s Champions for Kids program, and was raised through students from Grade 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, running a kilometer a day, until the 21 kilometres of a half-marathon was met. “This started off as a little project and it grew and it grew,” said principal Carmela Ciocio, on Wednesday, May 27, minutes before the final kilometer was run. “(It’s) really nice to see a lot of spirit here today,” said Andrea Kennedy, who, along with fellow teacher Debra White, organized the running. “After today, everybody can give themselves a pat on the back.” The idea for the half-marathon was based, in part, on the half-marathon for kids, which is organized for the Ottawa Race Weekend. The Perth initiative started on April 13.

Feds make ‘largest ever’ investment in Rideau Canal

Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

About $39.4 million will be flowing from Ottawa, down the Rideau Canal, for about 11 infrastructure projects in what the federal government is calling “the most significant federal investment in Parks Canada in 104 years.” The comments came from federal environment minister Leona Aglukkaq during the funding announcement at the Rideau Canal Visitor Centre in Smiths Falls on Monday, June 1. Of the $39.4 million amount, there were $6.6 million in previously announced infrastructure investments by the Harper Conservatives, for a grand total of $46 million. She called the Rideau Canal part of “a legacy that belongs to us all…(and) connects us to nature and our history.” Leeds-Grenville MP Gord Brown called it a “historic announcement,” and Doug Struthers, chair of the Rideau Corridor Landscape Strategy, called it a “significant day in the history of the canal.” While the canal has seen challenges over the past few years, Struthers, himself the former mayor of MerrickvilleWolford, said that there was a difference between things that were “nice to do,” and those that were “critical,” and that “it is critical to keep the system open,” and that it shows that the federal government is “serious about our Rideau Canal. We are serious about making it a destination.” More specifically, he said it sends a message “to the private sector,” that, when “you invest a dollar, we are here as well,” to invest. “This is not spending money. This is investing money,” Struthers added, echoing the words of the late federal finance minister Jim Flaherty. Amongst the local projects: * Burritts Rapids earth dam rehabilitation (North GrenDesmond Devoy/METROLAND ville) $2.6 million. * Upper Nichols earth dam rehabilitation (MerrickvilleAbove, at left, Grade 2 student Audrey Todd, and at right, Grade 1 student Ruth Christy, hold hands with Grade 4/5 teacher Sean Christy (also Ruth’s father) as the trio crosses the Wolford) $850,000. * Merrickville swing bridge rehabilitation (Merrickville-

Funds to replace blown water heater CANAL From page P1

Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

Like a family trying to juggle saving for a trip to Disney World, and dealing with unexpected plumbing problems, Youth Action Committee (YAK) was helping a partner agency make it to the House of Mouse last week, while keeping its own house in order. “Our water heater blew up,” said Tanis Cowan, YAK’s executive director, at the joint garage sale for YAK and the Perth Junior Civitan Club, on Friday, May 29. The youth club’s hot water tank blew about two weeks ago, costing about $1,200. She commended Tom Sullivan’s Plumbing for coming to their rescue with a good deal on the new tank, but the money still needs to be replaced. “It certainly wasn’t anything we’d budgeted for,” said Cowan. “We do have a contingency fund but that’s pretty much gone. That’s (also eaten up) our maintenance budget for this year.” While the club’s annual Rubber Duck Race is

still on for the last day of the Stewart Park Festival, Sunday, July 19, at 1:30 p.m., those funds simply go to pay for the club’s rent on Sherbrooke Street. Meanwhile, as lookie-lous and serious shoppers alike browsed the merchandise, members of the Perth Junior Civitan Club were busy unloading a bulging trailer full of donated items. Two members of the Algonquin College social worker program, A.J. Gunner, and Chris Thompson, were due to be joined by Nick Ziskowksi and Kaylea Anderson Masson, at the International Junior Civitan convention in Orlando, Florida. (Masson worked with the Junior Civitan Club as part of her training with the college program.) The remaining split funds from the sale were going to help get the youngsters to Disney World for June 25, for leadership training. The Junior Civitan Club recently raised about $450 for the new day surgery unit at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario in Ottawa. The Junior Civitan Club holds its meetings at YAK every month.

Wolford) $775,000. * Edmonds weir and dam and lock 25 masonry rehabilitation (Merrickville-Wolford) $1.2 million. * Poonamalie dam rehabilitation, phase one (Rideau Lakes) $5.3 million. * Narrows Lock 35, masonry repairs (Portland) $800,000. * Chaffeys swing bridge replacement (Rideau Lakes) $750,000. * Jones Falls concrete bridge rehabilitation (Rideau Lakes) $650,000. * Jones Falls timber bridge rehabilitation or replacement (Rideau Lakes) $1.6 million. * Multiple repairs to dams, to the tune of $2.5 million overall, for dams like Old Slys weir in Smiths Falls, Jones Falls arch dam, Merrickville Weir and Manotick Dam.

* Various lock masonry repairs, to the tune of $4.5 million, at various locks along the 202 km route. The abovementioned projects are already at different stages of completion. “Some are already underway,” said Brown. The Chaffeys swing bridge replacement and Merrickville bridge project, for example, are already done, while phase two of the Poonamalie dam rehabilitation will take place this fall. “We need to continue to make sure that the infrastructure is safe,” said Aglukkaq. For Brown, the money will also go a long way towards making the canal a viable entity well into the future. “This is an extraordinary amount of money which should help sustain it in the long term,” said Brown. Completed in 1832, “it needs a lot of maintenance,” said Brown.

the demons you need to slay,” asked Fenik. In his work with the Upper Canada School Board, “I heard a lot of stories that break your heart.” He admitted that the project would require coordination with social services, mental health agencies and the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital, as well as seeking money to pay for the beds, stafﬁng, location, etc. Paul Huras, chief executive ofﬁcer of the South East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN),

happened to be in town the next day for a public open house on the future of health care at the Perth Civitan Club hall. While he had just heard of Fenik’s proposal from this newspaper, he appeared to be receptive to the idea. “We can look at it,” said Huras. “I’m not fully versed on the service.” But, if it could be done in a way “that would allow us to meet a need and could be done in a cost effective way, by a quality (team), we would be ready to look at it.”

Plenty on the entertainment program at June 13 Relay For Life in Smiths Falls “They have so many different genres and songs in their repertoire, we know there really will be something to get almost everyone moving and singing, maybe even dancing around the track,” Van Wingerden remarks. Also part of the performing lineup for the June 13 RFL in Smiths Falls is another area musical duo – Mike Erion and George Reynolds of The Last Fatal Duo. The two are noted for their singing, playing and harmonizing. “The Last Fatal Duo brings together two really talented solo musicians and

it’s going to be great to hear them together on our stage,” says Van Wingerden. “They bring together a huge range of repertoire, so they should be real crowd-pleasers and help keep our evening rolling along.” Those who contribute their time and energy to perform at the Relay are an integral part of the event, as the entertainment co-ordinator points out. “RFL has its very serious purpose and the night itself goes through many emotional phases,” he highlights. “The entertainment acts on the stage help give

our participants a real boost of energy as they put in their laps.” And, Van Wingerden adds, “It’s so great to see how people on the track react when a band kicks into a favourite song. You see them singing along with a new kick in their step. That’s so important to help keep spirits up throughout the Relay.” For further information on the June 13 Relay, contact the CCS’ Lanark, Leeds and Grenville community ofﬁce, at 613-267-1058, or visit the RFL website at relayforlife.ca/smithsfalls.

Money raised through RFL funds promising cancer research, community support services and other important work so that fewer Canadians are touched by cancer. While the RFL in Smiths Falls has moved from the traditional 12-hour format to six hours in 2015 to encourage more people to take part, there will still be a full entertainment program. Returning once again and starting off the evening is the Breathe Dance Company. Members of the Merrickville dance company will be performing a short routine during the opening ceremonies at 6 p.m. that they have specially created for the occasion. Taking the stage after the opening ceremonies is local band Blue Thunder. The husband wife duo of Jeff and Angie Stoddard of Smiths Falls sound like a full-piece band as they play their repertoire, which ranges from young country to classic rock tunes.

The Canadian Cancer Society’s (CCS) Relay For Life (RFL) in Smiths Falls would not be possible each year without the many people who provide their support to the event. Among them are the on-stage performers. “I’m always amazed at just how many talented musicians and entertainers we have in this area, and how supportive they always are of the Relay,” says Chris Van Wingerden who is coordinating entertainment for the June 13 event, which will take place on the track of Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute from 6 p.m. to midnight. “Just like all the participants walking the track at Relay, our entertainment groups so often have personal connections to the cause. They give their time and talents in support of RFL, and there’s never a hesitation when we reach out and ask for that support.” Relay For Life is the CCS’ signature fundraiser.

The Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) is looking at possibly centralizing some hospital departments to create greater “integration.” “Do we need seven departments of human resources?” asked Paul Huras, chief executive ofﬁcer of the South East Local Health Integration Network, during “Health Care Tomorrow” open public house at the Perth Civitan Club hall on Wednesday, May 27. A similar open house was held that afternoon in the cafeteria of the Smiths Falls campus of the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital. The open houses were held as part of “creating our integrated health plans… (and) getting our hospitals to work together.” The seven hospitals in the LHIN “do great work individually,” but “today’s patient really moves,” and their health care journey could take them to multiple facilities for care. “If you do it (health care) in a piecemeal fashion…you may never get anywhere,” said Huras. One area where the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing – and vice versa – is when, say, test results do not make their way onwards to the next care provider, like, the family doctor. When he hears back about people’s experiences with the health care system, individual nurses, doctors and other staff often come in for praise. As for

Paul Huras, chief executive officer of the South East Local Health Integration Network, at the open house. “the system? It sucks,” is a response he often hears. “That’s when we let them down.” A remedy to this is the use of coordinated care plans. Cancer patients often have to travel to hospitals in Kingston or Ottawa for care,

and Huras stressed that crossing from one LHIN boundary to another (Ottawa is in the Champlain LHIN) should not be a barrier to care. Asked if cancer care services could be located within one of the two Lanark County hospitals he oversees, Huras said, “possibly. We do look at the data,” and one statistic out last month said that there would likely be a stark increase in cancer rates as the Baby Boomers reach their golden years. “We are looking at that.” An aging population and population growth are two deciding factors in determining where care is allocated. But, “we know population growth in the South East LHIN is slow. It is slower than the provincial average. We’re aging more rapidly than other LHINs.” One area of integration that the LHIN is not looking at is hammering out one collective bargaining agreement with all unionized employees at the seven hospitals. “I don’t know that we could get there,” said Huras, noting that individual hospitals negotiate one-on-one with the unions, and that there is one beneﬁts vendor for all seven hospitals. “We’ve always maintained…a good relationship with unions. They contact us when they are ready to talk. They have been very productive meetings.” Already, the seven hospitals have a “common procurement process.” One of the biggest complaints he is hearing in his travels is about patient

travel. “People do want services close to home, but, they recognize that with (the) tightening of funds” that is not always possible. “Transportation is regularly raised.” Increased emphasis is being put on home care, and the Community Care Access Centres have “been constantly expanding.” But, even at that, “patients are coming in with greater needs.” Every three years, the province’s LHINs have to produce a new plan, “which is informed with data from the community” through solid data analysis, talking to internal experts like doctors and nurses, talking to external experts, and seeking out the patient advisory council. On top of this, the LHIN has had to plow through 1,400 surveys that have been collected – with more input likely to come by the Saturday, June 13 deadline for submissions, to decipher “what’s working well, what’s not working well,” said Huras. The open houses have been held in Kingston, Belleville, Trenton, Napanee, Bancroft, Brockville, Westport and Sharbot Lake, and are “more conducive to a safe environment,” one he called “non-threatening.” “It’s not like a town hall meeting where people can get emotional,” he said. “They can just vent and tell us things that we can use to understand their perspective.”

The Perth and District branch of the Canadian Federation of University Women (CFUW) is proud to announce the 2015 recipients of the Education Awards presented May 28 at a ceremony at the Royal Canadian Legion on Beckwith Street, Perth. Seven women who are advancing to or continuing postsecondary education at the college or university levels were provided with awards which totaled $17,000. They are Colleen Richardson, Crystal Morris, Destiny Bowes (who also received an award in 2014), Madeleine Poirier, Megan Millotte, Alexandra AbbottBagg and Lisa Lukassen. In addition to the CFUW award, Lisa Lukassen also received a first time bursary of $500 presented by Debbie Mills on behalf of Blair and Son Home Furnishings. Four women will be attending area colleges; three will be in universities. Awards are based on the anticipated expenses and financial need of applicants. This year, the award amounts ranged from $1,000 to $3,000. CFUW raised these funds during our Heritage Perth Christmas House Tour held Dec. 6 and 7, 2014. Several of last year’s homeowners attended the awards ceremony. Jackie Boyer, president, underscores the community effort this fundraiser. “It takes a village to make these awards possible the generous homeowners of the participating eight unique homes, the town, business owners, police, residents and ticketholders all contribute to the success of the event. In addition to these education awards, proceeds of the tour also help support programs in local libraries and other educational initiatives,” she said. This year’s tour will be hosted Dec. 5 and 6, 2015. Over the past nine years approximately $175,000 has been donated to assist deserving women with higher education and to support other literacy programs. The awards ceremony was hosted by Bonnie Allen, vice president and chair of the education awards committee.

Lanark County drug strategy committee holds 20th network day Tara Gesner

tgesner@perfprint.ca

Prevention. Enforcement. Harm Reduction. Treatment. The Lanark County and Town of Smiths Falls Municipal Drug Strategy committee is utilizing these four pillars, which have a surprisingly powerful impact, to address alcohol and other drug problems. Earlier this month, the committee celebrated its 20th network day at Brunton Community Hall in Beckwith. The theme: Mental Health and Addiction. “Initially, we started with four network days during the year, but we then went to three for timing,” said Bonnie Schnittker of the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit. On top of displays by Lanark Leeds & Grenville Addictions and Mental Health, PLEO (Parents Lifelines of Eastern Ontario), Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre (ROMHC), Lanark County Mental Health (LCMH)

and Open Doors, the recent network session included two guest speakers: LCMH’s Diana McDonnell (see next week’s issue for another story) and ROMHC’s Dr. Kim Corace. Schnittker reviewed the group’s “impressive” list of presenters over the last six years on May 8. In one of the first few sessions (September 2010), How to Recognize Drug Use was the theme. Participants heard from a handful of presenters, including Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Const. Beth Hollihan, an at length trained Drug Recognition Expert (DRE). In the DRE training program, law enforcement officers are taught using this working definition of a drug: Any substance, which when taken into the human body, can impair the ability of the person to operate a vehicle safely. Enforcement was the theme in February 2015, with OPP Sgt. Jason Butcher speaking about the East Region Highway Enforce-

ment Team (ERHET). Much of what the eight-member ERHET does is referred to as a hot stop – intelligence based and informant and investigation driven traffic stops. Through traffic stops ERHET has been able to seize large quantities of drugs, currency and stolen property. “We held one session in May 2011 in Perth,” Schnittker said. “We talked about the use and abuse of prescription pain killers as well as a methadone treatment clinic.” “Another network day, in October 2013, was held at the Beckwith Recreation Complex, utilizing station rotation,” she added. “Sgt. Paul Klassen from Smiths Falls Police Services and Lanark County OPP Const. Sean Trahan demonstrated choice matters, reenacting a traffic stop.” The Ministry of Transportation was on hand to demonstrate its Intoxiclock, which is a tool used to demonstrate how a person’s level of intoxication changes with increasing levels of

alcohol consumption and the rate at which the body metabolizes alcohol given a person’s weight, gender and drinking pattern. In February 2014 the 16th network day was held by way of video conference, encompassing the following presenters: Amy Peaire of the Centre of Forensic Sciences (toxicology section); Chuck Riﬁci, president and chief executive ofﬁcer of Tweed Inc.; and Dr. Darren Courtney of the Youth Inpatient Unit at ROMHC. A cake cutting ceremony was held to celebrate the 20th network day. The vision of the Lanark County and Town of Smiths Falls Municipal Drug Strategy committee is “a healthy community free from alcohol and drug misuse/abuse.” “Our mission statement is: ‘We want to encourage communication and collaboration across the four pillars, to meet the needs of Lanark County’,” Schnittker said.The next network day takes place in October.

Six degrees of Thunder Bay

his one time, a way back, I was somewhere doing something inconsequential and I ran into a young fellow from Thunder Bay. “Hey! Thunder Bay!” I said. “I know people from Thunder Bay! Do you know (insert name of roommate from university here)?” He rolled his eyes. He actually did it in front of me. Rude. “Gawd, I hate when people do that,” he said. “What are the chances of knowing them?” Turns out he didn’t know my former roommate or any member of her family. And we didn’t bond. He was kind of a jerk. Since then, however, I have proven his statement wrong time and again, and it happened again last week. For several years I have had the opportunity to attend a provincial conference that attracts representatives from big cities and tiny towns and townships across Ontario. Each year, without fail, I encounter tonnes of people who have a story to tell about visiting Perth. A lot of the time there is an actual personal connection for me. The conversations get started because we’re all wearing name tags that also say where we’re from. So it goes: “Hey! Perth! Do you know so and so?” (Sort of like the Thunder Bay incident, but with less eye rolling and jerkiness.) A couple of years ago I met a man who was best friends with people who used to live on the street where I grew up. When he asked if I knew them I did not mock him. I’m friendly that way. This year a fellow said, “Oh, Perth! I know people on Otty Lake, but you probably wouldn’t know them.” (Perhaps he was shy because some jerk mocked him in the past.) “Try me,” I said. Sure enough, they were people I know, and they are nice people so we were able to have a pleasant, non-awkward conversation. On the last day of the conference I was sitting at a table with some delegates from Thunder Bay. Déjà vu! Except for that one jerky eye-roller guy, I have always found Thunder Bay citizens to be very nice. We all introduced ourselves and then, of course, I turned to the lady sitting next to me and said, “I went to university with someone from Thunder Bay. In fact, we were roommates for a couple of years.” She did not roll her eyes or scowl or

anything. In fact, she smiled. “What is the family name?” she asked. I told her. She grinned. “Her dad was a high school principal,” I added helpfully. (I’m a helper.) Well. Not only does she know my former roommate, but she happens to be very good friends with her parents and they travel together. We bonded. It was a happy time with no eye rolling. I haven’t seen the movie or the play, nor have I read the “small-world experiment” or any of those things, but anecdotally it sure seems possible that we are all more connected than we think. Sure, social media has linked us in arbitrary ways, but the theory of the six degrees of separation goes beyond that to suggest everyone and everything is connected by six or fewer steps from any other person in the world in a “friend of a friend” chain. My rudimentary research on the matter (read: Wikipedia) points to the theory ﬁrst being thrown out there in 1929 by Hungarian author Frigyes Karinthy. The concept evolved over decades as mathematicians and psychologists studied it. It was turned into a play in 1990 by John Guare and then a movie. It further evolved into a game developed by three students called “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon,” which I have not played, but which suggests any actor can be linked to Kevin Bacon through no more than six connections. Apparently you can Google a “Bacon number.” I might test that later. Then, Kevin Bacon made things even groovier by creating the website www. SixDegrees.org, which is a social network that connects celebrities to various submitted causes. All this is a grand way of saying it is a very small world, if you haven’t noticed. We are all connected somehow, whether we like to admit it or not. Despite early deterrents, I shall endeavour to continue to ask people from other places if they happen to know the people I know. So be warned and get ready to roll your eyes.

I was being a fool (I know, hard to believe), and I had zipped my winter coat over my head. “OK you guys, lead me back to Grandma’s house,” I said, as they each grasped my hands and walked me, plunk, right into a little creek that had iced over, but there was still plenty of water on the other side of that thick layer of ice.

Above, more than 60 vendors were on hand for the Ottawa Valley Home & Better Living Show, which offered advice from many home improvement and gardening experts. A portion of the proceeds from the show went to support the North

Grenville Giving Garden and the Randy Rose Fund. Left, Chloe Finner and Spencer Ross play hockey with balloon sticks and helmets made by Dr. Kaboom (David Ascroft) at the show. Bottom left, David Cole, of Colonial Granite, stands beside an impact etcher, which can be used to make etchings of anything on granite.

June is jumping at Perth’s Full Circle Theatre From music to film to theatre, the June lineup at Perth’s Full Circle Theatre is jumping! The month starts off with the premiere of a new film, The Story of Perth, Part One. The hour-and-a-half long documentary has been created by Newton Productions of Almonte, who enjoyed great success a couple of years back with their film, Almonte’s Interwoven Past, selling out three showings on the film’s debut at the Almonte Town Hall. When they began looking into Perth’s past, Rob and Sharon Newton decided that the story had to be split into two films – the second slated to debut next November at Full Circle Theatre (FCT). Featuring interviews with many local historians and other noted “Perthites”, the film delves deep into the background of the town and the fascinating people and events that created it. The Story of Perth, Part One will have three showings at FCT, June 5 at 7:30 p.m. and June 6 at 2 and 7:30 p.m. Tickets are exclusively at www.ticketsplease.ca.

Nova Scotia’s Arian Nasr brings the passion of Édith Piaf to life in her tribute June 12. The next week brings two exceptional musical talents to the Full Circle stage. June 12 at 7:30 p.m., Ariana Nasr will bring her powerful voice and electrifying stage presence to Perth in a celebration of the 100th anniversary of France’s “Little Sparrow”, Édith Piaf. Arian Nasr chante PIAF is a one-woman show (with accompanist Andy Flinn) that has been receiving standing ovations and rave

reviews on the East Coast and is now being brought to Ontario for a summer tour, stopping in Perth between dates in Toronto and Ottawa. “What a singer!... She does not imitate but rather, channels Piaf and truly embodies those glorious songs,” says François Côté of the Deep Roots Music Co-op. This show will be truly memorable. Tickets are exclusively at www.ticketsplease.ca. June 13 is the last Eastern Ontario date for Laura Smith, who is touring with her first CD in more than a decade. Laura is a Gemini and multiple East Coast Music Award winner. If you know her music, you’ll want to be there; if you don’t, you owe it to yourself to discover this prodigious talent. Laura’s performance is the season’s last from Charles MacPhail Productions, who have been garnering sold-out houses all winter and spring for some top-name talent – this show looks to be another in the same vein. Tickets for Laura Smith are available exclusively at www.shadowfax.on.ca.

RETIREMENT

RETIREMENT

The family of the late Gerry Gray would like to send our sincere appreciation for all the generous acts of kindness shown to our mother during her final years, while she fought the effects of dementia there were many people who touched her life with genuine care, concern, patience and love. Thank you to parish members from both St. Francis de Sales Church and St. Anne’s in Merrickville, the wonderful staff of the Day Away Program, Donna and the Royal Bank staff and many other individuals who always showed concern for Mom’s safety as she walked about. We would particularly like to thank the staff of Hilltop Manor for her care in the close to three years she was there and those who would take some time to visit to help brighten her day. A special thank you to the Drs. and staff working Easter weekend in the emergency and palliative care room at the Kemptville District Hospital for the care and compassion shown to our mother. To Father Julius and the choir of St. Anne’s parish in Merrickville for Mom’s beautiful send-off and to Scott Blair and staff of Blair and Son Funeral Home for the preparation for Mom’s final journey. We would like to express our gratitude to everyone who extended to us words of comfort and sympathy through cards, flowers, messages and donations in memory of our dearest mother. Sincerely Chris, Theresa, Dennis, Gene and families

CARD OF THANKS

The family of the late Paul Deegan would like to express our gratitude to extended family and dear friends for the comforting support we received through prayers, visits, food donations, cards, emails, flowers, donations to the Ottawa Hospital Heart Institute and other charities, in the loss of our beloved Husband, Father, Step Father, Grandfather, Brother and friend. Thank you to the Doctors and nurses at the Berkley Medical Centre in West Virginia and the Baltimore Maryland Medical Centre for the care and compassion Paul received. Special thanks to brother Don for the touching eulogy and to Cathy, Corry, Shannon and Sharron for the beautiful music. To his pallbearers, his nephews, thank you. Paul will be greatly missed at his home on Otter Lake and in Winter Haven Florida, his winter home, and at the Wednesday morning O.F.C.

COUTTS, Lois E. They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason, Will change the way we feel.

We want to tell you something, So there won’t be any doubt, You’re so wonderful to think of, But so hard to be without. Remembered by Lynn and Rick Brent and Pat Barrie and Donna Ernie and Susan and families

VanALSTINE - In loving memory of Dad, Don, who passed away 30 years ago on June 7, 1985. The moment that you died, Our hearts split in two. The one side filled with memories, The other died with you. We often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep. And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon our cheeks. Remembering you is easy, We do it every day, But missing you is a heartache, That never goes away. We hold you tightly within our hearts, and there you will remain, Life has gone on without you, But it never will be the same. For those who still have their dads, Treat him with tender care, You will never know the emptiness, As when you turn and he is not there. Lovingly remembered by Daughter Irene, Wayne & Family

the wonderful player lineup of Madagascar Slim, Tony D, Kevin Breit, Emily Burgess and Don Rooke at NAC’s 4th Stage. With just five chairs across the stage, each player took turns offering various styles, sharing leads and joining in jamming with the others, when invited. Emily was the only ‘youth’ on this stage this evening as I’m sure she was a quarter century younger than the others, yet she held her own, gaining respect and encouragement from the others. Kevin Breit’s been acoustic player on a couple of Norah Jones CDs, recording also with Rosanne Cash, k.d. lang and recently Hugh Laurie (of TV’s House fame), touring with him last summer, besides his other Toronto bands Sisters Euclid and Stretch Orchestra and often led the way. There were no egos here. I messaged Emily after the show, asking what it was like playing beside this monster player and her response was she “... stayed out of Kevin’s way during his solo’s as he takes them to a whole different planet, his timing and rhythm were perfect and it was just scary sitting there.” She loved the experience and abilities of the other players, too. It was obvious this young artist was respected by all the other players... so nice to see. When you walk into a venue on a Friday night and see so many musicians in the audience, you know you’re in the right place and a recent show at The Cove in Westport featuring two seven-time Canadian Country Guitar Player of the Year winners, Steve Piticco and Wendell Ferguson, backed by a previous nominee of that prestigious prize, Shawn Mccullough, well, you know good things are going to happen. Sitting in the front row was Reg Weber who, in his music store in Northbrook years ago, introduced Shawn originally to these star country pickers. Other players sitting up front included Harry Adrain and his singing daughter Cheryl, balladeer Kevin Head, Perth’s Henry Norwood, creators of the Kingsville Folk Music Festival, duo John and Michelle Law, Mike Cochrane of Mikey & the Reelers, Pakenham’s Brad Scott, CMAO nominee Brea Lawrenson, Stewart Park Festival’s artistic director and musician Joel LeBlanc, our stellar waiter/host/bass player, Seamus Cowan, and that’s just those I knew. When that many players take a night off from playing, you know it’s going to be a great show. Veterans Mark Lemieux on drums and Roch Lafleur on bass kept the pickers in line. Again these musicians had no egos, they were just playing because they love it. Rarely do these pickers get the opportunity to play along with oth-

ers of such a calibre and you could tell, bringing the best out in one another. They all had a chance to shine throughout the evening, each showing their various styles seamlessly. At the break I overheard up and coming picker Brad Scott say to Henry Norwood “how terrifying was that?” I’m sure there’s a few audience members who went home and burned their guitars that night. This gig was a special thrill for Mccullough to play with these heroes of his but, in spite of his thrill, showing the class he portrays, he invited 22-year-old Brad Scott up to take his place for a couple of tunes in the second half to give our up and coming youth the opportunity to make the most of the experience. As the veteran ladies stated during the Blues Revue, we are in good hands as our youth begin to shine through. It’s important we encourage our eager young performers. Upcoming events • Saturday, June 13: Stewart Park Festival’s kick off to summer party featuring Ras Lee & the Vibes Band at the Crystal Palace, Perth.

What’s the worst fear for some people? It’s not standing before a crowd and giving a major speech. Nor is it the apprehension of being crushed in a crowded elevator, or flying. It’s the terror of having no control of what’s in food. Now, British researchers report there is a way for parents to prevent children from becoming picky eaters. So how picky can you get? The next time you’re at a dinner party do a little detective work and see Dr. Gifford-Jones if you can spot which guest suffers from this phobia. You don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to spot picky eaters. One clue is to keep your eye on the guest’s dinner plate. For instance, some picky eaters cannot stand mixing foods together. Rather, they will eat peas first, then the meat, the potatoes and so on. And some refuse to eat anything with their hands even if it’s a sandwich, peanuts or pizza. You may discover that some diners will not eat carrots if they have touched the beans on the plate. One picky eater explained, “I don’t think of it as a disorder, just kind of curious”. Maybe so, but the rest of us would consider it more than just a bit odd. There’s another picky eater you can’t miss detecting out of the corner of your eye. The one who is offered a chicken pie as the main course. Just watch that person pick out the peas or the onions, trying to be discreet while doing so. Other picky eaters face a nightmare when it’s impossible to pick out what they don’t like. A person I know hates olives with a passion. He has the option of picking olives out of a salad. But I recently saw horror in his eyes at a party. The olives were ground up in the salad! Even a CIA agent might find it hard to know why some people avoid certain foods. Picky eaters will tell friends they avoid oysters because of the smell. But the real reason is that they are too slimy. But the ultimate devastating nightmare for a picky eater is to be invited to dinner at a friend’s home where there is no control over the food. The anguish starts early when the host passes finger food and they wonder, “what’s in it?” Then fear sets in of what the host will serve for the main meal. How many people are picky eaters? Experts say their numbers are increasing due to public awareness of Obsessive Compulsory Disease (OCD). They claim that picky eating is normally not considered a disease, such as the compulsive symptom of having to wash hands one hundred times a day. But some picky eaters can become depressed when this disorder affects their quality of life. So can parents save children from dinner nightmares later on in life? Helen Coulthard, a psychology researcher at De Montford University in Leicester, England, reports an experiment that may cure picky eaters. 70 children, age two to five, were asked to play with slimy, mushy food and to find a buried toy at the bottom of mashed potatoes or jelly. Children were then rated on a score of one to five on how they reacted to getting their hands dirty. Researchers concluded that those children who were happy to get their hands dirty were less likely to suffer from food neophobia, a fear of tasting new food. So the moral is, don’t force children to eat foods they don’t like. Rather, design games or fun with different foods and there will be fewer adult picky eaters. I wondered while researching this column how I would rate on the picky scale. My wife would say, “Not very good”. I admit I’m a rare meat and mashed potatoes guy. I too hate olives, and onions that appear in everything! But I never refuse dinner at a friend’s home. For others who feel depressed about their pickiness, there’s a web site to share their problems, www.pickyeatingadults.com. R0013306120_0604

Hosts needed for Japanese students There are two groups of Japanese teens heading to this area August 2015. The ﬁrst group consists of 14-year-old girls from Japan’s Denenchofu School. Their main goal is to immerse themselves in Canadian family life and practice their English. The group is due to arrive on July 29 and will stay until August 11. The second group is a mix of 17- and 18-yearold boys and girls from Ritsumeikan Uji School, in Japan. They will spend their weekdays taking English as a Second Language program at Carleton Place High School and spend time with their host families on evenings and weekends. Local teachers will instruct the students while they are at school. This group will arrive Aug. 16 and leave Aug. 26. That’s where area families come in. While the younger group will be with their host families throughout the day, older students spend much of their time at school, which is easier for families Submitted photo who might not be home during the daytime.

tense for families. No matter which age group a family decides to host, the experience is well worth it, In order to qualify to host, families must be able to provide the student with his or her own room and anyone over the age of 19 must pass a vulnerable sector background check. Organizers also hope to match students with his or her ideal family, which means the more family members, the better, especially if there are teens around the same age, Buses are provided for the older students to and from Carleton Place High School daily with buses from Perth and Smiths. Students residing in Carleton Place might require a drive to or from school, or they can walk if they are close enough to the school. Compensation is provided to families for the student’s stay.

The local chapter of the Retired Women Teachers of Ontario has decided to share the love, and the wealth, about $1,000, with several deserving charities. Each charity received cheques for about $200 during their meeting at the Lombardy Agricultural Hall on Thursday, May 21. The money will go towards events as diverse as getting a new horse for the therapeutic riding program, or helping replicate an early military settlement on May 20, 2016, in Perth – incorporating Quebec and Ontario militias, no less – as part of the town’s 200th anniversary celebrations. The charities honoured were: * Rideau Sewing Club, for their proDesmond Devoy/METROLAND Representatives from the nine community groups that received money from the local gram of getting quilts for the Perth and chapter of the Retired Women Teachers of Ontario, gather for a group photo on the stage Smiths Falls District Hospital for women in palliative care or on dialysis. of the Lombardy Agricultural Hall on Thursday, May 21. * Lanark Highlands Youth Club.

Perth Military Settlement: 200th anniversary celebrations will offer something for everyone The War of 1812 – a two-and-ahalf-year struggle pitting the British Military against armies of the United States – did more to create Canada and its people than virtually any other period or event in our history. According to historians, in what was then Upper and Lower Canada, British military victories over invading American armies became iconic and promoted the development of a distinct Canadian identity, which included strong loyalty to Britain. Today, particularly in Ontario, memory of the war retains its significance because the defeat of the invasions ensured that the Canadas would remain part of the British Empire, rather than be annexed by the United States. Following the war, peacetime brought an abundance of good will from King George III. In December 1814, royal assent was granted to a plan proposed by Henry, Lord Bathurst, Secretary of State for War and the Colonies, to grant “waste lands” in the Canadas to discharged soldiers. In February 1815 Lord Bathurst’s plan was extended to include civilians, offering “liberal encouragement by His Majesty’s government to settlers inclined to proceed from Great Britain and Ireland, and provision by vessels, etc., for their passage to Quebec with their families.” It was through this Proclamation that the Perth Military Settlement – including modernday Beckwith, Tay Valley and Drummond-North Elmsley Townships and the Town of Perth – was founded. In 2016, the communities that make up that original footprint of the Military Settlement will launch a year-long celebration highlighting the history of those brave, original settlers while celebrating how far we have come since those early

Colour fun run at St. John Friday

St. John Elementary School in Perth has been holding “Fitness Fridays” for the month of May. Every Friday afternoon students from junior kindergarten to Grade 6 have been getting into multiage groups to work out their bodies and have fun. They have rotated among centres that have kept them hopping – literally! Teachers and many guests from the community have led these centres which have included active games, gymnastics, dance, cross-fit, skipping and karate. To celebrate the great success of our “Fitness Fridays”, the whole school will be taking part in a Fun Run on Friday, June 5 at 1:20 p.m. This will be a Colour Run where runners will have the opportunity to run through a shower of powdered colours! By the end of the run, we should be a very colourful group! The emphasis of this run will be participation, fun and celebration of being active.

days. In Tay Valley, plans are well underway for a number of special events and celebrations that are sure to offer something for everyone. One of the major efforts involves the creation of a commemorative calendar created by the very talented Annie Dalton and featuring a diverse and visually stunning set of period postcards. The calendar should be available for sale in July. In addition, the township will launch “At Home in Tay Valley” a book celebrating the township’s history. Special events will include a Tay Bells Winter Celebration and the Settler Heritage Days and Lanark County Plowing Match. Details of these events, the calendar and “At Home in Tay Valley” can be found at http://www.tayvalleytwp. ca/en/discover-tay-valley/200th-anniversarycelebrations.asp The Town of Perth is also gearing up for a number of significant and special events – 200 of them in fact – to mark 2016. Signature events will include a Fire and Ice winter party, the Ontario Town Crier Championships and the Blast from the Past Homecoming Weekend. All the details are available at www.perth200.ca Work has also begun in earnest on special events and celebrations in Drummond-North Elmsley and Beckwith Townships. Watch for details of their events in our next column. Each month leading up to the 200th anniversary and throughout 2016, John LeVatte of the Perth and District Chamber of Commerce will write a column highlighting some of the event planning and celebrations as well as a glimpse of the history of the Perth Military Settlement. Stay tuned. John LeVatte is with the Perth and District Chamber of Commerce.

Nichols leads PDCI athletes to provincials with 2 east regional golds Laurie Weir

ljweir@metroland.com

It was a bit of a roller coaster ride for some athletes from Perth and District Collegiate Institute this last week as they competed in the east regional track and ﬁeld meet in Brockville. Competing on familiar turf, the contingent from Perth was able to qualify seven athletes for the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) at the University of Toronto this week, June 4 to 6. “I never imagined we could get seven athletes to qualify to OFSAA this year,” said coach Justin McNamee. “I had been thinking that we had a good

chance for four or ﬁve, and depending on the day, perhaps one more if things went our way. The reality is that all seven of these athletes really stepped up and brought it when it mattered most and I’m absolutely thrilled for them. It is so satisfying to see all of their hard work pay off like this.” The coach said medals are a “real possibility” at the provincial level, “but ﬁrst and foremost, our goal is to set new personal bests in each event.” McNamee said they can’t control what others do, and “let’s face it, this meet has the best high school athletes in the province – so if we set a new PB, how can we be disappointed by that?” One guy who was disappointed with his showing at the east regionals was hurdle specialist,

Mathew Ferguson. “I almost fell and I’m not pleased with my time,” said Ferguson, who ran the 110m senior boys hurdles in 14.75 seconds. “I’m not pleased with that time at all.” He was just .71 seconds off his PB of 14.04 for third place in the race. “I’ll try and get there (a PB) next week” when he hits the OFSAA track. Ben Bellamy, a Grade 9 athlete qualified for OFSAA in the midget boys 800m with a time of 2.08:88 for fourth place. This is his second trip to OFSAA this year – the first time was in the fall for cross-country running. The rest of the squad is comprised of young women from midget to senior. Leading the pack with a pair of first place finishes is Braiden Nichols who powered on for a top marks in junior girls shot put with a throw of 12.85m and in discus with a toss of 31.90m. Both are well off her PBs, she said, as she can still find six meters for the discus and another, .57m for the shot.

Mikaela Congreves was third in senior girls high jump with a leap of 1.50m for her second trip to the provincials. Alex Roberts tossed a 32.22m result in senior girls discus for a second place finish, just .43m off her PB. Abigail Brandon was second in the senior girls javelin with a new personal best throw of 35.61m. This is her third time at OFSAA for track and field. Young midget hurler, Nicole Fielding qualified in the shot put event with a throw of 10.31m. Her personal best is 10.63. “This is the second most athletes that we have had qualify for the provincial finals, with the most being 13 we sent three years ago,” noted the coach. The meet will cost the group $2,500 for food, lodging and travel. “The PDCI students’ council is generously donating some money to the group,” said McNamee. “But for the most part it is paid for by the students and their families.”

Pleasure horse driving course offered

This week at

If you have ever wanted to drive a horse, you are in luck. Wayne Byrne is hosting an introduction to pleasure driving at Cedar Rock Stable near Perth this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. “Anyone can do it,” he says. “It’s a lot of fun. And if anyone is interested in more than one lesson, they can contact me anytime.” You don’t even need previous driving experience, he says. His horse will be brought to the stable, owned by Pat Nolan. Her sister, Nancy McLean of Smiths Falls, said driving horses is something the sisters found fun, a source of excitement and a purpose in life, so to speak. McLean, a retired hairdresser, adopted mini horses with her sister. Panda and Nelly are a mom and daughter duo the sisters now own. “We fell in love with them,” said McLean. “They were rescued from a life of despair and it took me four months to groom the mom. We bought them the right food, gave them love and care.” The horses enjoy the sisters’ company as much their humans enjoy the equine equivalent. “We just love them. We gave them a purpose and then we knew Wayne and he started working with them and he got Panda going.” Nelly recently celebrated her second
