Perth council says no to Hydro One sale

Perth earns five blooms at national competition Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

It was a bloomin’ good time for Perth out on the west coast earlier this month. Acting mayor John Gemmell brought home quite the souvenir from British Columbia when he attended the National Communities In Bloom awards in the city of Kamloops, on Oct. 3. The town received top honours, a five-bloom rating, in the 4,501 to 9,000 population category. The Table Community Garden

also received special mention from the award organizers. The town was in competition against several communities across the country, including: • Bay Roberts, Newfoundland and Labrador • Carbonear, Newfoundland and Labrador • Humboldt, Saskatchewan • Kindersley, Saskatchewan • Stonewall, Manitoba • Vegreville, Alberta “It was bigger than I

Perth town council this week voted unanimously for a motion calling on Liberal Premier Kathleen Wynne’s Liberal government not to partially privatize about 60 per cent of Hydro One. This makes Perth the 157th community in Ontario to pass such a motion. “Hydro One is for sale, but it is not for sale for the right reasons,” said Herve Cavanagh of the Citizens’ Coalition Against Privatization (CCAP), during a presentation to Perth town council’s committee-of-the-whole meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 6. Cavanagh, who is also the president of Ontario Public Service Employees Union local 466, reported that the currently provincially owned company made $749 million in profits last year, and is being sold in order to raise $4 billion to build transit infrastructure, and to pay off a further $5 billion in provincial debt. “It’s a bad deal because it is a bad price,” he said,

pointing to some Bay Street analysts who have reported that anything less than a $36 billion price tag was a “bad deal.” Cavanagh also expressed concerns that the bill at Queen’s Park outlining the conditions of the sale, strip away any accountability that would normally apply to a private-public deal this size. “This sale is done in complete secrecy,” said Cavanagh. “Electricity rates would soar if it is privatized.” He pointed to other jurisdictions like Alberta and Nova Scotia where privatization was brought in, it has been “disastrous.” “In Nova Scotia, they are now paying more,” and are dealing with less reliable service. He referred to his own hydro bill, which is about $257 per month, plus the $740 he pays in township taxes. With the sale of a portion of Hydro One, he surmised, that would mean less money going into the coffers at Queen’s Park, which would in turn mean that “my See HYDRO page P4

Lanark County Situation Table hoping to stop crime before it starts akulp@perfprint.ca

There are many risk factors that can lead to crime and the newly-formed Lanark County Situation Table (LCST) hopes their model will be an asset to local police services and agencies. Stephanie Gray, who was hired two weeks ago as part-time project co-ordinator of LCST, gave Lanark County’s corporate services committee an overview of the initiative at its Oct. 7 meeting. According to Gray, the project “aims to proactively address the root causes of crime by identifying risk factors that are prevalent in Lanark County and Smiths Falls and by building a plan to mitigate them in the future.� “...It’s about stopping crime by helping people early on,� she continued. LCST will do this by collaborating with front-line agencies (education, health, mental health, social services, housing,

justice, private sector and local government) to provide help to people who are at an acutely elevated risk of harm, which ties in with the province’s Safer Ontario Strategy, Gray said. “We will meet regularly to identify situations involving individuals who are at an acutely elevated risk of harm, harming themselves or someone else,� she stated. For example, Grey used a situation where a 20-year-old male was sent to prison on a second degree murder charge after a botched drug deal. By delving into the man’s history, one might find he was raised by a single mother, changed schools multiple times and was introduced to crime by his mother’s boyfriend, who had a criminal record for drugs and assault. Gray said by offering help at the start, the man could have gone a very different path. “So what do you do? Where do you start? Any of these points are

a place where we could do an intervention, but ideally, we would deal with it right at the start when he was living with his mom and give her the support she needs,� Gray explained. The project will operate under the auspices of the Perth Police Services Board (PSB), which incorporated the principles of the situation table into its strategic plan and will partner with the Lanark County OPP and Inspector Derek Needham to design the model. “This isn’t a police-led initiative, but the police are a part of it,� Gray stated. “We will get referrals from police, but quite a bit of our information will come from teachers if there’s a problem with a child in school.� The LCST also isn’t replacing the work done by other agencies in the county, but will enhance it and benefit all Lanark County residents. “We have agencies in Lanark County and Smiths Falls that are

taken in the county, but we want to make this a long-term plan,� Gray said. Issues expected to be addressed in the plan include social housing, homelessness, domestic violence and other risk factors such as substance abuse, poverty, mental health and negative parenting. The biggest benefit of the LCST is the ability to provide immediate help to people and Gray said it will become “a key part of a risk-driven collaboration community safety model endorsed by local PSBs and municipal councils.� “We want to reduce the number of crisis incidents and free

up resources to be redirected to other areas,� she added, noting it will identify service gaps and “strengthen the voice in and around Lanark County and Smiths Falls that we need to lobby for community needs.� Gray stressed that the LCST isn’t just temporary, but wants to make a living document with crime mitigation efforts that can constantly be enhanced. In the long-term, further funding opportunities will be explored to keep the project going. “Right now, we have a year’s worth of funding that we have seven months to work with, so

already doing really great work and this is a way to collaborate more and do some really great work,� Gray said. After hiring Gray as the parttime project co-ordinator and securing a budget of $93,000 ($60,000 from a Proceeds of Crime Front-Line Policing Grant and the rest through in-kind donations), LCST will involve four components: establish the situation table itself, provide training to participants, develop a community plan for safety and wellbeing, and establish a sustainability plan. It will operate out of the Perth OPP detachment. “Efforts somewhat similar to this (LCST) have been under-

Weather wreaks havoc on Ontario’s apple crop Consumers can expect fewer Ontario apples on the market this fall and it’s all due to unfavourable weather during this past growing season. A spring frost the night of May 22-23 that affected many of the province’s apple growing regions is responsible for much of the decline in this year’s apple crop, which is estimated to be down about 50 per cent from normal years. “Mother Nature was not kind to the apple industry in Ontario

this year,” says Ontario Apple Growers chair Charles Stevens, who farms near Newcastle, Ontario. “We lost almost half of our crop due to weather, so there will definitely be fewer locally grown apples available this year.” Apple growing regions in eastern Ontario, the north shore of Lake Erie and the Niagara Peninsula were particularly affected by the spring frost, which was compounded by a very cold winter and a cool, wet month

in June. The summer-like temperatures at the end of August and early September were also a challenge as apples need warm days and cool nights to ripen and take on colour. As a result, many pick your own operations and farmers’ markets will likely have limited opening hours or crop availability this fall, so Stevens recommends checking before planning a visit.

County council endorses resolution against privatization of Hydro One Ashley Kulp

akulp@perfprint.ca

Lanark County Council is the latest municipality to take a stand against the privatization of Hydro One. At its corporate services committee meeting Oct. 7, county councillors endorsed a resolution to stop the private sale of Hydro One after Rhonda Ferguson, a member of the citizen-led campaign, Ontario Hydro Not For Sale, spoke as a delegation. “We are looking for your support in a very simple statement: Hydro One is not for sale,� Ferguson said. Hydro in Ontario was made public in 1904 and Ferguson said “rates dropped dramatically and for 100 years, they were low and Ontario prospered through the Great Depression and the Second World War.� In 1999, that all started to change, Ferguson noted, when hydro was partially privatized. “Rates immediately began to spike. The wealthy flourished, but few others did,� she said, adding that manufacturing

plants closed. “Studies have shown that when hydro is privatized anywhere in the world, the results are disastrous,� Ferguson added. In 2014, the net income of Hydro One was $750 million, with $290 million paid back to the province. Ferguson said if the company is privatized, “there will be a loss of income from dividends and the financial impact of provincial funding will be seen in our roads, infrastructure and health care.� “We simply cannot afford to lose any more support from the province,� she stressed. “The government hits the rural municipalities the hardest and taxpayers the most.� Noting that changes could start as early as this November, Ferguson pointed out that once Hydro One is sold to private vendors, the province will only ever be able to purchase 40 per cent of it back. “We built it, we own it, nobody asked us to sell it...money will flow back into corporations’ hands rather than our governments’,� Ferguson said.

Ferguson herself, a nurse and councillor in Athens, said she got involved in the campaign because “I can’t afford my bills already.� So far, 165 municipalities have backed the Ontario Hydro Not For Sale campaign with resolutions, including Athens and the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville. “There are also recommendations to defer or review across Lanark County (municipalities) as well,� she stated. “The Conservatives and NDP also oppose the sale.� Coun. John Gemmell (Perth acting mayor) was in full support of the resolution. “This is spot on...if owned by a private company, we’re not going to see any money,� he said. Coun. Jerry Flynn (Carleton Place mayor) commended Ferguson for her efforts. “Thanks for taking this on. We all should be doing what you’re doing,� he commented.

Toronto Blue Jays’ run good for baseball in Canada For a baseball fan like me it seems like only yesterday that Joe Carter hopped around the bases, arms in the air, after hitting a walk-off, three-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. His timely blast gave the Toronto Blue Jays their second consecutive World Series victory. Oh, how time flies! It was 22 years ago next Friday (Oct. 23, 1993) that Carter broke the hearts of star reliever Mitch Williams, the Philadelphia Phillies and Phil’s many fans with his famous dinger at what was then known as SkyDome. Do you know which two, wellknown ex-Major Leaguers were on base at the time of Carter’s timely Game 6 blast? Hey, that’s cheating – don’t look it up online. I’ll give you some hints. One was a top base stealer. The other currently manages another Major League Baseball (MLB) team. Carter’s HR gave Toronto a come-from-behind 8-6 triumph. It is undoubtedly the biggest moment in Canadian baseball history. And it marked only the second time in MLB history that a walk-off home run has ended a World Series. The first came in 1960 when Bill Mazeroski’s leadoff long ball, in the bottom of the ninth, gave the Pittsburgh Pirates a 10-9 triumph in the seventh and deciding game of their series against the New York Yankees. Carter, however, still holds one record. His amazing World Series-winning shot marked the first (and so far the only) time a team

has come from behind to win the Fall Classic, courtesy of a walkoff home run. A magical feat! The only reason I have zeroed in on Carter’s biggest career moment this week is because I have seen it repeated on television so often lately. It’s the Toronto club’s biggest moment and with Jays playing so well this season there’s little wonder that moment is being repeated time and again as Toronto fans clamor for more on-field success this fall. Since the 1993 World Series win the Blue Jays, now Canada’s only MLB team had never appeared in the playoffs again. Until Thursday night Oct. 8 that is! Throughout August and September fan excitement was building in Canada as Toronto zeroed in on their first post-season berth in 22 years. Not only did they earn an American League (AL) playoff spot, they also captured first place in the AL East Division. Had it not been for something of a swoon during the last week of the campaign they might have finished with the best record in the league and clinched home field advantage throughout the playoffs. That honour belongs to Kansas City Royals, the Central Division champs and last year’s World Series runners-up. The AL once again earned home field advantage in the Fall Classic by winning the MLB AllStar game in July.

Reflections BY JEFF MAGUIRE

nice to have those potential extra game(s) at home, that isn’t really the biggest concern for the Jays. Their focus is on winning as many games as they can and, with any luck, reaching the World Series for the first time since the club claimed back-to-back titles in 1992 and 1993. At this writing Jays have won two “do-or-die” games in Texas after falling behind 2-0 to Rangers by dropping the first two contests in the AL divisional series at home last Thursday and Friday. Questionable umpiring was a key factor in their defeat in a 14-inning marathon Friday afternoon. Yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon Toronto was hoping to complete a rarity, a three-game comeback which would put them into the AL championship series. I freely admit to being a Detroit Tigers’ fan at heart, something I have noted in this space a number of times. But in an earlier column this past summer, written just after my son Craig and I attended two Blue Jays’ games at what is now Rogers Centre in Toronto, I stressed that I am also a Jays’ fan. And no, I didn’t just jump on the bandwagon this year because the team Playoff success played so well. While it would have been I am a Canadian, first and fore-

most, and Blue Jays are this country’s only MLB club. They deserve my support and I have provided it, in person, several times in recent years. In addition I can’t remember a season during which I have watched so many games on television and enjoyed the experience so much. I hear the same thing from other friends and family members, some of whom are quick to admit the only reason they’re even watching baseball is because of the Blue Jays’ run. Most Canadians are hockey supporters and in recent times I think it is fair to say baseball has fallen off the radar of the majority of team sports fans in this country. Given the excitement and the unprecedented publicity which accompanied Toronto’s division title chase this summer and early fall it is virtually certain the TV numbers for Jays’ sponsoring network (Rogers also owns the team) will be phenomenal this month. Remember, the worldwide web was in its infancy and social media was unheard of when the ball club last competed in the post-season.

As for tickets to the games scheduled for Toronto, they were snapped up within two hours leaving many fans disappointed. With less than 50,000 berths in Rogers Centre there simply aren’t enough chairs to go around! No matter what happened yesterday Jays’ fantastic stretch run will do wonders for the grand old game of baseball in Canada, where it’s been suffering somewhat in recent years. I can’t believe the amount of Jays’ gear – jerseys, t-shirts, caps and banners – I have seen people wearing or waving in our community alone the past few weeks. At present Toronto baseball paraphernalia outstrips even Ottawa Senators’ souvenirs. That’s saying something considering the support Ottawa’s NHL team has in this region! True, the new hockey season only began last week. But from everything I am hearing sports fans are more intrigued by Blue Jays’ current playoff run than they are in an NHL campaign which has many months to go. When we were in Ireland

and England a few weeks ago I sometimes wore a Jays’ cap and/or a t-shirt with the team name and logo. I got quite a few comments too, although admittedly most of the baseball chatter was with Americans or fellow Canadians we met along the way. The number of Americans traveling in Europe at any one time is See MAGUIRE page 18 R0013506680-1015

Government advertising must deliver substance

E

ach week more than 1,000 English and French community newspapers just like The Record News, The Kemptville Advance, The Perth Courier and The Carleton Place Almonte Canadian Gazette go about the business of telling stories that matter to the communities they serve. We are at your rinks and schools. We are at your school board and council meeting. We are at the scene when tragedy strikes. We celebrate your milestones. Our job is to cover Lanark County and parts of Leeds and Grenville, warts and all. And we are good at it. We are in towns big and small. Some community newspapers circulate well in excess of 100,000 copies. Some are in the hundreds. It may surprise you that each week, more than 20 million copies of community newspapers are distributed across the country. Independent research shows that more than 70 per cent of Canadians read their community paper. Despite our collective strength, ours is a medium easy to ignore. Because we focus on Canada one community at a time, we lack the sex appeal of other media. We’ve seen our share of federal government advertising gradually erode over the years. Our regional and national associations have met with government MPs, opposition MPs, cabinet ministers and senior bureaucrats to promote our case. We are always met with courtesy and a promise that things will get better.

Well things are not getting better. So despite it being contradictory to everything we believe in journalistically, the time has come to tell you. In short, the federal government is all but ignoring your community newspapers like ours. In the last fiscal year, the federal government spent $75 million on advertising. More than $26 million of that went to TV ads, while another $15.5 million went to Internet advertising – an industry dominated by American-based companies like Google and Facebook. Creating ads and paying ad agencies ate away another $10 million. Radio advertising cost just under $7 million. By comparison, community newspapers saw a paltry $867,000 in total advertising from Ottawa – or an average of about $25 per week per newspaper. The way in which your government uses your money to communicate with you is very telling. TV and Internet ads work to build brand, not to inform. Your community newspaper generates debate and serves as a forum for discussion – and is also one of the few places where local MPs actually receive editorial coverage outside election season. If you believe that government should invest in meaningful communication with citizens through community newspapers, contact your local candidates. We’ll continue to make sure your voice is heard.

Everyone played a role in sauerkraut making on the farm The cabbages were ready. The heads filled four bushel baskets in the summer kitchen, and Mother had covered them with old quilts. She said to keep them safe from an early frost, which wasn’t likely since it was still September, and they were well protected in the snug summer kitchen. We knew it was to keep the mice off them! Mother worried constantly that a mouse would come in contact with anything we might eventually put in our mouths! It was a Saturday night and everything was ready. The big barrel had been well scoured, sun-dried, and now rolled into the kitchen waiting for the shredded cabbage. We always made sauerkraut on a Saturday night. It was then the whole family would be together, and this was a true fam-

ily venture! And it all happened around the old pine kitchen table that had been scrubbed within an inch of its life. Father had the shredder ready. It was a wood box affair about ten inches wide, a couple feet long, with a piece of board smooth as silk from many years of usage, fitting exactly the top of the box. In this board, was a sharp blade imbedded in the middle, and only Father manned this part of the operation. Everett was once allowed to use the shredder and ended up

with a goodly portion of a finger cut off which old Doctor Murphy had to stitch back on! So Father took no chances. He was the shredder. Every one of us had a job to do when it came to sauerkraut night. All decked out in long white aprons, (Father thought Mother was taking this cleanliness a bit too far, but he wore one anyway to stop an argument which he was sure to lose), and with our hands scrubbed red, we were ready to begin. Emerson and Everett were in charge of bringing in the heavy bushel baskets of cabbage heads. Earl took the heads out, one at a time, and handed them to Audrey and me sitting at one end of the table. Our job was to peel off the outer leaves, and toss them into one of the empty baskets (they would be fed to the pigs). Mother

cored the heads and handed them, one after another to Father at the shredder. One head at a time was placed in the board with a groove and blade in it, and Father shoved the cabbage back and forth over the blade, filling the cavity underneath. Once it was full, Father dumped the shredded cabbage into the big barrel beside him. Every so often, the entire operation would stop, and Mother would take the wood plunger we used to whip cream into butter, and pound down the cabbage in the barrel, take a cup of coarse salt from the bag and toss it over the shredded cabbage. I loved the smell of the cabbage, which I was sure started to ferment as soon as it hit the barrel, but of course, it didn’t. It would have to sit for weeks before we

could truly call it sauerkraut! By the time the last bit of cabbage had been shredded and pounded down into the barrel, it was ready for Father to put the round disc of well scrubbed wood on top of it all. A large stone, so big only Father and Everett or Emerson could lift it, had been sitting in the dish pan filled with clean water from the pump. It too, had been scrubbed clean, and I loved to hear Father tell how it was the very same stone used by his Father when he was a young boy. The very same stone used to press down the shredded cabbage years and years ago. It always amazed me how we seemed to have the exact amount of cabbage to fill the barrel. It would take the strength of Father and the three boys to carefully roll the filled barrel out to the

summer kitchen, where it would again be covered with a clean sheet and then a quilt. Days and sometimes weeks would pass before we could use the sauerkraut. And often it would be frozen solid in the barrel, and had to be chipped with a special tool made just for that purpose. As fall stretched into winter, out in the summer kitchen was a barrel that would augment our meals, and we would enjoy the fruits of a true family evening... and savour the wonderful German dishes Father so often made.

MAGUIRE From page 7

truly phenomenal! We took part in an organized pub crawl in Dublin one evening. It was terrific, with lots of Irish music and plenty of craic (Gaelic for “fun”). Of the 75 people in our group nearly 60 were Americans. I rest my case! One evening in London we were sitting in the Sherlock Holmes Pub enjoying a drink. The name alone means the Holmes is a hot spot for tourists, although it also appeals to a surprisingly large number of Londoners. Unexpected support At one point a chap I judged to be in his early 60s strolled toward the table where Kathleen and I were sitting, enjoying the lively atmosphere in the pub. I’d forgotten I was wearing my Jays’ cap. But this guy didn’t miss it! “Hey, it’s the Blue Jays,” he said, smiling broadly and pointing to my lid. “I’m from New York and I’m a Mets’ fan. “I hate the Yankees. So I’m hoping for you guys in the American League this year. Beat those damn Yankees,” he bellowed. There’s no question that for Canadian MLB fans this has been a great fall. Of course things will get much more exciting if Blue Jays can win the AL pennant and move on to challenge for the World Series for the first time in 22 years. Win or lose Wednesday Toronto has enjoyed a tremendous season and there will be high hopes next year as Jays’ boast the best offence in baseball. “GO Jays GO!” If you have a comment or question for Jeff Maguire he can be reached by email at: jeffrey.maguire@rogers.com.

Norm Foster comedy plays at Station Theatre for next two weeks Norm Foster writes comedies everyone seems to love. And the good news is that the Smiths Falls Community Theatre is bringing another of his hilarious plays, directed by Katharine Coleman and performed by an all-star cast, to the Station Theatre. Sadie Flynn Comes to Big Oak runs from Oct. 15 until its final matinee on Oct. 25. Director Katharine Coleman says: “This show has been a hoot to put together. Norm Foster is always a great choice. I consider him the Neil Simon of Canada. He writes so the audience can relate to whatever he’s written. When I read this play, I knew that it would resonate with the audience. It’s about a small town where everyone knows everyone else’s business. I come from a city, where you didn’t even know your neighbour’s name. When I moved here, I found out that wasn’t an option. I’ve grown to love

my small town and so found this play so very relatable. It made me laugh, not at it, but with it. The audience will get it too, and laugh with their neighbours about their small town and what goes on in it.” Norm Foster’s Big Oak is a small town where everyone knows everyone else’s business. Tom Shaw owns Millie’s Cabin, in Big Oak. Orson Hubble is his best friend who works in the diner with him. Bev Dupuis owns the local hair salon and Rachel Blessington is the local telephone operator who has had intimate access to all the goings on of all the locals through the phone lines. Nothing new ever happens in Big Oak – until the day Sadie Flynn, convicted husband murderer, comes to town on the bus. Looking for a place to start fresh, Sadie settles into life in Big Oak and begins interacting with the folks at Millie’s

Cabin. With her keen ear for local gossip and an incredible personal requirement to right wrongs, Sadie shakes up the quiet, rutted little town of Big Oak, much to the delight of some and the fear for their life of others. Sadie has plenty to keep her busy. For starters, there’s Bev’s AWOL husband to observe, Rachel’s cousin who thinks she’s Annie Oak-

ley, and Tom’s reputation as a lothario. And throughout all her meddling in the lives of the folks in Big Oak the audience has plenty to laugh about as they follow along on the ride. Coleman also plays the title role of Sadie. She has acted in and directed an impressive repertoire of comedies and was most recently seen

in this spring’s offering by the Smiths Falls Community Theatre: Love From a Stranger. The part of Orson Hubble is played by Jamie Schoular – always a fan favourite – who was most recently seen as one of the two stars of the riotous

comedy Leading Ladies, produced at the Station Theatre in February.The role of Tom Shaw is played by Hugh McCulloch who has performed all over the area: with the See STATION page 22

SENS EXTRA

Better, faster, stronger Sens first round pick leaves camp with contract but returns to junior adam.kveton@metroland.com

The Ottawa Senators first pick of the NHL 2015 draft, Thomas Chabot, has left Ottawa with a contract and two main aspects of his game to work on to improve his chances of making the team’s roster at next season’s training camp. The club signed Chabot, an 18-year-old, 6-foot-2 defenceman to a three-year entry-level contract, general manager Bryan Murray announced on Sept. 30. Though Chabot has now returned to play with the Saint John Sea Dogs in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, he said he was very satisfied with his first training camp experience with the Senators. “They told me I had a great camp and I knew I had a great camp,” said Chabot. “It’s hard to go (to camp) and not make it (on the team), but I wasn’t really thinking about it. I was just focusing to get to learn and enjoy the experience and live it day by day and try to get better,” he

said. “To be back now and to get back in junior with a contract in your hands, it feels real good.” The training camp was one of the first opportunities Chabot has had to play with and against players older than himself, he said. “Everything was quicker; everybody was stronger, so it was something really different.” While Chabot worked to adjust his game, using his own speed and trying to simplify his game, he said speed and power are the two major things he will have to work on. “You’ve always got to be faster, but I’m going to try to be stronger … to be strategic for me to battle against older guys,” Chabot said. “I have some things to learn in my game, but first thing is to be stronger in my game and develop physically.” Chabot said he is aiming to become a player with a strong two-way game with an emphasis on offence, and strong skating ability who’s not afraid to carry the puck.

He listed Blackhawks defenceman Duncan Keith and L.A. Kings defenceman Drew Doughty among his inspirations. Returning to the Sea Dogs, Chabot has earned an assist after two games in which the Sea Dogs defeated the Gatineau Olympiques 4-3 and the Shawinigan Cataractes 5-2. “I know we have a great team, we have a lot of good players, so I know it’s going to be an exciting year,” he said. Last year, Chabot recorded 41 points with 12 goals and 29 assists, in addition to 62 penalty minutes in 66 games. Asked who his dream team was growing up, Chabot said it was the Montreal Canadiens, but added, “I wouldn’t mind anywhere to get drafted. (Getting drafted by the Sens) was something special for me.” SENS START SEASON

Rounding out the cast is Christine Winter – the scene stealer in Nana’s Naughty Knickers. Christine he has been involved in the theatre for about five years both onstage and behind the scenes. In this production, she plays the role of Rachel, the nosey telephone operator.

According to Club President, Barry Boyce, “we are more than happy to celebrate the 200th Anniversary by commemorating this historical year with logos on each of the three sheets of ice. We’re thinking about other ways to celebrate the 200th such as putting a heritage theme on our closing bonspiel dinner dance next April.” The Perth Curling Club is a member owned and operated club on the banks of the Tay River with 274 adult members plus a junior program for those aged 7 and up.

Holder on Harper: Getting a read on Conservative leader of, say, former U.S. President Bill Clinton, Holder elaborated. “He’s not a slap-you-onthe-back kind of person. He’s serious, but it’s a serious job.� This wasn’t the first time that I’d heard that the prime minister exudes gravitas. On Aug. 19, whilst campaigning in London, Ont., Harper relaxed that evening by watching a Blue Jays versus Phillies game in the home of a Tory supporter. “He was very affable, en-

London West Conservative candidate Ed Holder speaks with our columnist Desmond Peter Devoy at his campaign office on Oct. 6. I see him daily, and that’s the advantage I have,� he said. “You know, it’s interesting,� Holder went on, “when you get branded with a reputation, there are those who like to extend the myth. Look, he is who he is. He’s an exceptional, genuine, very honest person. I absolutely trust him. I respect his intellect.� Holder appreciates Harper’s collegial decision making, but once a thoughtful decision is made, the prime minister doesn’t sway from it quickly. “He is decisive, and he’s clear, but he’s a consensus seeker, and then makes a decision.� I mentioned that another consensus seeker/decision maker was the

present federal Liberal leader’s father, Pierre Trudeau, and Holder diplomatically said he couldn’t comment on that. On a personal level, Holder has witnessed some of Harper’s legendary impressions, “and they’re actually pretty good. He’s a storyteller,� Holder continued. Video has emerged of Harper impersonating former Prime Minister Joe Clark in 2011. “Having (an) east coast family, he suffers my stories well. I wish people had that opportunity, as I have had, to see that side of him.� When I suggested that Harper was perhaps too reserved to exude the bonhomie

because you get a chance to meet with thousands of constituents that you otherwise wouldn’t.� During his seven years in office, Holder noted, hundreds come to his office with questions, and are helped by his staff. Unfortunately, as he’s generally away in Ottawa during the week, when the House is sitting, he doesn’t get to meet them. “The advantage of a campaign is, I get a chance to go face-to-face with a lot of these folks,� Holder said. “People have their views, and for the most part, they’ve been very kind and supportive, and if they don’t agree, most of them do so agreeably.� Holder was first elected in 2008, and re-elected in 2011. I hesitantly asked about Harper’s reputed tendency to micromanage his MP’s, to the extent that they have very little effect at the local level. “I’ll just tell you as it is,� Holder replied, “and I’ve probably appreciated this more, now that I’m the Minister of Science and Technology. I would like constituents to appreciate more how much responsibility and power and influence that local Members of Parliament DO have, because it’s quite true.� For his own part, being the son of a Cape Breton mother, Holder said that he has many opinions, and that he’s not shy to voice them. Being at the cabinet table, he’s that much closer to the decision and influence makers, “so, as a result, I think members of parliament – if they use it! – have a tremendous amount of sway and influence and impact. I have to tell you, I have lots of input, and I receive lots of input from members of parliament, in my capacity as a cabinet minister.� With regard to Harper being controlling, Holder said, “that’s not been my experience.� He wished people could see the prime minister as he does. “He has a very dry sense of humour, (is) incredibly smart, very thoughtful, and is someone who cares about people.

Editor’s note: This is the fourth part of an ongoing series, in which our occasional columnist, London, Ont.-based freelance writer, Desmond Peter Devoy, writes about the main political parties in the run up to the Oct. 19 federal election, his first as a Canadian citizen. Devoy attended rallies for federal Liberal Party leader Justin Trudeau in January, and New Democratic Party leader Thomas Mulcair in July. In September he attended a platform plank unveiling, courtesy of federal Green Party leader Elizabeth May. Here, Devoy writes about the Conservative Party, his last column before the storm of the upcoming election. Having witnessed the leaders of the three other main federal political parties in action, I was anxious to see Prime Minister Stephen Harper when he came to London, Ont. Alas, it was not to be. For security reasons, Harper’s itinerary is generally not released until 24 hours before an event. As luck would have it, I was in the middle of a 12-day tour of Israel and Jordon, when Harper arrived in town. At the same time that he was stumping through London, I was viewing the ancient World Heritage city of Petra, and watching camels wander through the desert of Wadi Rum, where the 1962 movie Lawrence of Arabia was filmed. Although I was disappointed when I found that I’d missed Harper’s visit, I had some compensations. Some months ago I attended a charity event for Salthaven Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Centre, a London-area based animal rescue sanctuary. There, I met supporters of London West Conservative MP Ed Holder. Wishing to gain insight from a cabinet member about what our prime minister for the past decade was really like, I phoned for an interview, and was asked to drop by the campaign office, on Oxford Street West. Here, an appointment was set up for me, but not before I’d been asked some questions by Holder’s press secretary, Mandy Van Waes, regarding the nature of my story. It was a surreal experience, as I’m usually the one conducting the interview. On Tuesday, Oct.6 I returned to the campaign office, where Holder, with some seriousness, told me that the interview was off. Seeing my crestfallen face, he smiled, “Just kidding!� Holder offered me bottled water and a power bar, saying he always kept a good supply on hand, for himself and his campaign staff. “Every night, after knocking on doors for 90 minutes, our energy lags, so this helps to keep our energy levels up,� he added. Hearing that I’d covered Elizabeth May’s stopover in Guelph, Holder praised her: “She’s a great hugger - and I don’t just mean a tree-hugger!� My first question actually dealt with canvassing, and what the reaction had been at the doors, in what is the secondlongest campaign in Canadian history. Having pounded the pavement for almost eleven weeks so far, Holder quipped: “To me, it feels like the longest! Even this longer campaign is a good process,

gaging everyone, as he stood around with a group of sports fans, speaking knowledgeably about the 1972 Summit Series,� said a volunteer who was present, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “He’s a serious guy, who always has to think on his feet, and consider all the nuances and interpretations – in two languages! – of everything he says.� The prime minister received another accolade from

a supporter, who once volunteered with Harper in Ottawa. This tipster – who also requested anonymity – told me that Harper sometimes took staff members and volunteers out to lunch, causing the supporter to exclaim: “Here’s the Prime Minister of Canada, eating Chinese food, unpretentious and laid-back, buying ME lunch!” Holder said that Harper’s humanity is very compelling. He recalled the time the prime minister’s plane landed in Paris, in July of 2006, when he was on

his way to attend a G8 meeting in Russia. Harper became concerned about Canadians stranded in Lebanon, after a sudden outbreak of hostilities in the area. He ordered the government plane he was travelling on to be “stripped down”, and diplomats and reporters ejected, so that as many as 120 Canadians could be rescued right away. Holder applauded Harper for standing up for his convictions, adding: “If you don’t stand up for something, you’ll fall for anything.” He recalled Harper saying to Russian President Vladimir

Putin in Malaysia; “‘Well, I guess I’ll shake your hand, Mr. Putin, but pay mind, get out of Ukraine.’ And he wasn’t joking.” Earlier during our talk, I had just one more question to ask Holder about Harper, so I began: “Just to finish with Mr. Harper—” Quick as a whip with a quip, Holder interjected: “Oh, no, we’ve got four more years. We’re not finished with him yet.” This coming Monday night, we will all find out if that’s true.

‘Let’s get moving’: Refugee committee begins to take shape Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

Ann and Gord Munro are the new co-chairs of the still-forming committee that is seeking to bring Syrian refugee families to the area. The second meeting of the as-yet unnamed committee (tentatively entitled the Greater Perth Community Refugee Effort in the day’s agenda) was held in the upper hall of McMartin House in Perth on Thursday, Oct. 8. Several groups were represented at the meeting, including the local branch of the Canadian Federation of University Women (CFUW), the Perth and District Community Foundation, St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church, St. James the Apostle Anglican Church, the Rotary Club of Perth, Shelter Box Canada, Tay Valley Township council, St. Paul’s United Church, Probus Club, and other concerned citizens. The meeting was chaired by businessman Richard Schooley, who is also the chairman of the board of the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital. The community foundation helped get the ball rolling with an inaugural meeting on Friday, Sept. 25, which was held “to gage support to move this forward,” said Lynn McIntyre, executive director. “(There is) obvious interest in this project,” said Schooley. “Our ambition…was to establish a committee.” Already, citizens in the area can donate to canadahelps.org and, following the links, can make a donation that will be used to help facilitate the arrivals of refugees locally. “It’s a payment facility that then filters it back,” said McIntyre.

Ann and Gord Munro, the new cochairs of the local committee looking to assist Syrian refugees, listen intently during the Oct. 8 meeting at McMartin House. At right: Businessman Richard Schooley chaired the second meeting. “You’re collecting money for an organization that doesn’t yet exist,” joked Sue Landry of Shelter Box Canada, though Schooley explained that the money would be collected under the auspices of the foundation. Already, some groups in town are already setting the groundwork for refugees. Connie Strang, representing St. John’s church, reported that her parish council “are going to go ahead,” with

the process of trying to bring Syrian refugees to the area, as part of a wider partnership between Anglicans and Roman Catholics in Ontario. Tay Valley Township Coun. Jennifer Dickson was on hand at the meeting and said that when she told council of her wish to represent her area on the forming committee, “it wasn’t tentative, but it wasn’t rousing, cheerleading enthu-

siasm.” But she has been pushing the refugee matter as “a 200th anniversary initiative. This is a community endeavour. It is not a political endeavour. Quite the contrary.” Strang said that she had approached acting Mayor John Gemmell about supporting the group, but, during the meeting, she felt that “he wasn’t saying no, but,” that he wanted to wait until they “got ourselves organized.” “I kept him informed,” said Strang. “But this isn’t going to work until we have something to go back with.” She added that “we’re not asking for [a] blessing. We’re asking for participation.” Karen Hickey of the CFUW agreed that there needed to be a clear vision, a mission statement, followed by clearly set objectives. Schooley agreed, asking if they were a sponsorship group or a group that wanted to facilitate a sponsorship group with resources. During the course of the meeting, the Munros were impressed to accept the co-chair title, though Ann cautioned that “I don’t want this as a life appointment. I’ve been through several life appointments. Is this a four-year appointment? A seven-year appointment?” Landry replied that it should be a two-year appointment at first. While the finer points and appointments of the committee are yet to be hammered out, there appears to be a fine selection of talent that could round it out. Colin Stephenson, of the Probus Club of Perth, with his experience as an officer at the Bank of Canada, was tapped as someone who could be helpful with finances. He also had another

We will now be OPEN Monday to Saturday 11am-9pm

connection to the world of refugees in that his son is a doctor, based in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ont., who specializes in refugee medicine. Stephenson said that refugees, unlike other groups, suffer “different symptoms,” because of their circumstances. As such, his son had offered to “mentor local practitioners.” At this, Schooley interjected that the local “family health group are interested in being part,” of the committee in some way, and would appreciate the mentoring. The meeting also heard that John Gow, the principal at Perth and District Collegiate Institute, had offered to be part of an educational component for the new arrivals. Stephenson added that, being from Syria, the first language of the refugees would not likely be English and that, as such, translation services and English As A Second Language classes would also be needed, since “medicine is best offered in a first language.” It was stressed that the arrival of these refugees would be a long-term process, requiring a transition of many years on both the part of the Syrians and area residents, as well as a long-term commitment. There was a prolonged discussion about naming the committee, one that was inclusive of the geography of those present and not Perth-centric, and one that clearly set out what the committee was about and wanted to accomplish. As the clock ticked past 11 o’clock that morning, Gord Munro spoke up and, in his first declaration as co-chair, said, “Let’s not get bogged down in a name…(Let’s) get to the point. Let’s get moving.”

taxes will go up because there will be less money coming back to the municipalities.” Coun. Jim Boldt, a well-known fiscal conservative voice on council, agreed with Cavanagh, that Hydro One, the former Ontario Hydro, was “an asset that belong to the taxpayers of the province of Ontario,” which is “worth more than what Kathleen Wynne thinks that it is worth.” In fact, Boldt went so far as to assert that “it’s time we had a tax revolt here in Ontario,” because, “this is a bad play for the taxpayers.” Acting mayor John Gemmell however cautioned

that there are times when “private companies do do things better than the government,” but he was not sure that this was the case here. Picking up on Gemmell’s comments later, Boldt asserted that “privatization isn’t always bad. But we need to look at the bigger picture.” Coun. Riq Turner said that his largest concerns “are with the oversight.” He has seen, time and again, how “there has been no recourse,” over false or inaccurate readings from Smart Meters, and how it has taken years for the government agencies involved to admit that they were wrong. If that was the case with a government agency, Turner wondered, at a semi-private company, “How do we have recourse?”

competitors. “It was well done,” he said of the awards. As for the part played by the community, “I congratulate our staff, community groups and citizens for this fantastic achievement. By working together, we have set the bar high and have become a truly outstanding community.”

NDP candidate Margaret Andrade aims to strengthen her riding Stacey Roy

sroy@perfprint.ca

Creating a strong community is something Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands-Rideau Lakes NDP candidate, Margaret Andrade of the NDP party, says she can do for the region. Her first priority will be to support small- and medium-sized businesses so they are in a position to add to their staff. She supports Tom Mulcair’s plan to decrease the tax rate for these busi-

ment lands. “Canadian innovation has not been encouraged for 10 years and I think it’s time we do it again,” Andrade added. “It just goes through every sector of our economy.” Andrade is equally passionate about bringing the appropriate support to her farming constituents. “We will do everything we can to continue to create an environment where good quality fresh Canadian food is produced for Canadians. We have to protect our food supply,” Andrade said. Specifically, she is supporting the NDP’s plan to make it easier for families to succession plan on the farm. They are also pledging to protect the supply management system in future trade agreements.

Running for a seat in the House of Commons is not a new experience for Lorraine Rekmans. The Green candidate in Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes also represented the party in a Northern Ontario riding in the 2008 and 2011 federal election campaigns. Rekmans, 52, lives in Osgoode village and works with her husband and two sons at the family’s automotive repair business in North Grenville. The candidate also serves as the Green party’s indigenous affairs critic; Rekmans is of Algonquin descent. She has a background in journalism and is the former director of the Native Aboriginal Forestry Association. Rekmans is an advocate of electoral reform and supports her party’s proposal to establish a guaranteed liveable income

spaces and lowering the Old Age Security Pension eligibility age back to 65 are other integral items on the Liberal agenda. The key to all this is increasing the tax base to improve services and make changes, she said. “Leeds Grenville needs people to stimulate the economy,” said McFall. “We should be looking at immigration policies.” Economic development is a

huge subject for all levels of government in Canada. “Job development in all communities is important,” she said. The country’s economy is reflected by growth and the last two consecutive quarters have seen negative growth in Canada, she noted. “If we’re in a recession, we’re in a recession,” she said.

Gord Brown says he got into politics to make a difference in his community. Brown, who served as a town councillor in Gananoque, first ran as the Alliance candidate in Leeds-Grenville in 2000. He lost to Liberal incumbent Joe Jordan by 55 votes. Following the Alliance-Progressive Conservative merger, Brown was the Conservative candidate in 2004 and defeated Jordan. Brown was re-elected in 2006, 2008 and 2011. Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes have now been added to the federal riding’s name. Brown’s theme during this campaign has been leadership that delivers. The Conservative candidate is proud of his record representing the riding for the past 11 years. Brown said his top priority and that of the federal government for the past nine years has been the economy. Federal taxes are at their lowest level in 50 years, and there is now a balanced budget in place as had been promised. The government has had to make difficult choices and focus on what needed to be done, according to Brown. The result has been significant investments in infrastructure and “one of the best economies in the world.” The Conservative candidate has indicated that only in emergency cases should a federal

Grateful to take a chance

It’s fitting to write about kindness and gratitude around Thanksgiving, but I probably would have penned something anyway since my life is a-swirl with things that make me feel grateful. This column was also partly inspired by an article I saw in The Ottawa Citizen on the weekend by Sharon Kirkey. It describes the health benefits of expressing gratitude (“A little gratitude might be the best medicine”). Kirkey describes how researcher Laura Redwine and her colleagues asked almost 200 people suffering from symptoms of heart disease to complete a gratitude questionnaire. Subsequent blood tests showed those who focused on the positive and scored highest on the gratitude scale had lower markers of inflammation in their bloodstream – a good sign for recovery. Some participants, the article said, were asked to journal three to five things that made them feel thankful each day, and after eight weeks they had further positive test results related to the heart. Studies also show gratitude may trigger the calming branch of the brain, reduce chronic pain, improve sleep patterns and help with depression. For me, gratitude and kindness go hand in hand and are part of the Golden Rule. I’m certainly not perfect, but I do try to treat others as I would like to be treated. The article calls gratitude “a long game” and one of the doctors cited (Robert Emmons) describes it as “a disposition to notice kindness and benevolence and to give back the goodness received.” Redwine says “it’s part of a ‘wider life orientation’ towards the positive” and that it is “cumulative” – you’ve got to keep it going. Not always easy, right? Lately I’ve been pondering the fact that I am disheartened by the federal election. Usually I thrive on elections – I find them fascinating. While I think our local campaign has been very positive, I am troubled by the undercurrent of racism and bigotry that has crept into the national discourse. It is disorienting. I don’t recognize this Canada. So I voted in the advance poll on Saturday and felt grateful for the fact I could. I thought of the people on this planet who envy the opportunity to vote for someone to represent them. I am grateful to be able to vote. Then on Sunday, my family and I attended a church service to celebrate

the baptism of my niece and nephew. Rev. Shelley Roberts’ sermon was a fitting nod to Thanksgiving, but it resonated with me on another level. The theme was “don’t worry, be grateful – and do something.” Her message was to stop worrying about stuff you can’t control (something I don’t do well) and to be grateful for the little – and big – things. Moreover, “do something” to build upon that gratitude. Do something to help make things better. I can relate to this, too, because I’m grateful to have had the courage to take a chance on something I believe in. Recently I was hired for a part-time coordinator position for the Lanark County Situation Table. This project will involve working with local agencies and service providers – the experts who help people – in order to try to avert crisis situations. We will also work together to identify root causes of crime in our communities and to build plans to try to fix them. I am excited about the chance to work with these professionals and to try to do something to make life better for people. To get to this point, though, I had to give up some things and take a chance. I had to quit a board position I loved in order to apply. I’ve scaled back on some of my self-employed work in order to do something that is currently funded for only a finite period of time. But this challenge fires me up, and I’m grateful for that. And I’m grateful to everyone who cheered me on. Rev. Roberts’ words struck a chord. I set aside the worry (never easy for us Type-A-things-have-to- be-JUSTSO people), felt (and still feel) the gratitude and will now “do something” with this wonderful opportunity. I am so glad I took this chance. Even my gut – my faithful decisionmaking barometer – is happy, and I’m certainly grateful for that because unhappy guts are no fun at all. So go forth, people, and tell worry to go home. Be grateful and helpful and kind. Reduce inflammation! Sleep well! Oh, and don’t forget to vote.

Poll finds wives beginning to tire of polls Polls, polls, ye Gods, more polls. If you want a poll that puts your party in first, well, you’ve probably seen it. Enjoy it while it lasts because the next one will be completely different. Rather than sending emoji-laden texts out to friends, I have been sending out texts with the latest election polls - even after my wife revealed that she believes that most polls are “garbage.” She may have a point, remembering so acutely how way wrong the polls were in the Alberta and British Columbia provincial elections in 2012 and 2013 respectively. Can’t say I blame her - she also called them creatures of broadcasting, which help fill air time. It reminded me of a conference I attended in Toronto this past summer, where an academic, upon finding out that I wrote for a newspaper, started to harangue me over dinner about the publication of polls. Apparently, we shouldn’t be allowed to publish them. They weren’t fully scientific, or something (full disclosure, a wee touch of alcohol had been imbibed by this point, so my recollection may not be crystal clear.) What I do remember clearly is

DESMOND DEVOY Des Says that I looked at my watch and was glad to see it was time for me to leave for my sister’s birthday party. I am a devoted follower of the threehundredeight.com web site. On Oct. 11, Forum and Nanos polls were showing a wide Liberal lead, while others like Ekos show a tighter race. All show the NDP in freefall. (The site’s poll of polls shows the Liberals at 34.2, Conservatives at 31.7, and NDP at 23.4 per cent. This could mean a projected Liberal minority government, at 134 seats, to the Tories’ 119 and the NDP’s 80.) Even here in Lanark-FrontenacKingston, there are polls, but, to be honest, I’m not entirely sure how much stock to put in them. Even the 308 projection gives incumbents a seven per cent lead, which I am sure Scott Reid does not mind at all. For this riding, they

have Reid at 48.8 per cent, to Liberal Philippe Archambault’s 26.9 per cent. New Democrat John Fenik is at 18.4 per cent and Anita Payne of the Greens is at 5.3 (there is 0.5 per cent for other, which, I guess now includes Libertarian candidate Mark Budd. Is his name new to you? Well, it was to us too. The party website says he lives in Carleton Place, but we only found out about him through reporters voting at the advance polls or from election signs popping up in Carleton Place and Smiths Falls. Sorry Mark, I would have loved to have done a profile on you...) Not surprisingly, Archambault’s camp is pointing to another poll showing him in second place, 13 points behind Reid. So, he’s calling on New Democrats and Greens to get behind him to defeat Reid. Meanwhile, the Citizens Democracy Forum is encouraging “progressives” to row in behind Fenik. It’s sad to see two guys who used to get along now needling each other. If their goal is to defeat Reid, they seem to be doing Reid’s dirty work by wasting resources on each other. Ah well, see you at the polls!

DEAR EDITOR: I read and was appalled by Donna Doelman’s Letter to the Editor in the paper last week (‘Reader says book launch marred by Warden.’) First off if anyone should apologize it should be her to the reeve/warden. If you were raised with good manners you certainly don’t attack a person’s appearance. What right does someone have to criticize another’s appearance or what they wear to whatever function they attend? Furthermore, if she had read the book she would see that Tay Valley prospered from men like the Reeve of Tay Valley/Warden of Lanark County. Hard working men who wore the clothes of a working man, not men who wore suits and ties. Also, the book launch was held in a barn and, therefore, I think suits and ties were inappropriate for the setting. Two-hundred years ago he would be considered dressed in his best. The Honourable Elizabeth Dowdeswell did not appear offended

by the reeve/warden’s appearance and at times happily chatted with him and sat next to him for pictures. If she was offended then she was a lady with good manners and never let it show. As for the reeve/warden’s speech, yes, he stumbled a few times but he apologized for that on the spot and his apology should have been accepted. It happened, we are not all eloquent speakers. We get nervous sometimes, but an apology was made and that should be the end of it. Keith Kerr was elected as reeve of Tay Valley more than once, and there is a reason for that. It is because he is the common man’s leader - one of us; he doesn’t pretend to be someone better than us. Clothes and fancy words do not a man make. It’s his character and his actions that count. As for the reeve/warden’s hat, I love it! That’s his signature and I hope he continues to wear it. Rosetta McInnes Tay Valley

Resident stands up for reeve DEAR EDITOR: This letter is in response to last week’s letter from a reader in Kingston. “At Home in Tay Valley� is a great book full of historical facts written by the people of Tay Valley. The stories are genuine accounts full of interesting nuggets about Tay Valley and beyond (who knew “Innisville� is Canada Post’s misspelling of “Ennisville� named after the Ennis family of Bennett Lake). Who better to represent the people of Tay Valley and Lanark County than the honest and genuine Keith Kerr. The man

is a walking history book on Tay Valley who I’m sure knows every family profiled and many more. He may be rough around the edges, but just like the stories in the book, this adds a charm you can’t fake. The lady from Kingston may like her politicians in polished suits, but I believe most people would prefer someone who is hardworking, honest and genuine right through. Kurt Greaves, Perth

Creationist view offensive: reader DEAR EDITOR: Your article entitled “Creationist road show presents theory to Franktown students� is not scientifically accurate. I find the the comments made by Mr. Gus Olsthoorn, the representative of the Creation Ministries International offensive. For the record, I have been a professional geologist (MSc., Fellow of the Geological Association of Canada) for over 40 years. I work as a guide at a dinosaur museum in the USA during the winter. A few facts: The earth is 4.6 billion-years-old. We can date minerals accurately using very well established radiometric dating techniques. Dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years ago after evolving on earth for more than 160 million years during the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous

periods. There is strong scientific evidence about how their extinction was caused when an asteroid struck the earth. The fossil record is well established, and the principals of evolution are indisputable. Over 1,000 species of dinosaurs and pterosaurs have been identified and studied to date. The Bible is not a history or science text book, the earth was not created in seven days and the earth is not 6,000-years-old. These ideas have been dis-proven for over 150 years. It is my opinion, that it is disturbing that young students are being subjected to this type of misinformation in the year 2015. Derek P Smith Perth

Besides, R0013489528_1001 pharmaceutical companies were making billions of dollars promoting CLDs and I believe they had seduced cardiologists with questionable science. Some researchers agree with me. dŚĞ ĂƚŚŽůĹ?Ä? tŽžÄžĹśÍ›Ć? >ĞĂĹ?ƾĞ Since that time Dr. Sydney Bush, an English researcher, has ^Ćš :ŽŚŜ ƚŚĞ ĂƉƚĹ?Ć?ƚ͕ WÄžĆŒĆšĹš reported his dramatic photos to show that high doses of C and Lysine prevent and reverse hardening of arteries. His research convinced me that I made the right decision. Besides, C is a natural remedy that is safe, less expensive and effective. See the photos at www.docgiff.com Will the medical establishment ever look at this research? Highly unlikely. During the past three years I’ve tried to get medical journals, university health publications and Deans of major medical schools to publish this information without success. Yet, no cardiologist has ever explained why this research is wrong. So I continue to believe that history will prove that the use of CLDs is an unethical and dangerous medical experiment conducted by Big Pharma and the medical profession on millions of unsuspecting people. And that ignoring new research will ^Ćš :ŽŚŜ ĹŻÄžĹľÄžĹśĆšÄ‚ĆŒÇ‡ ^Ä?ĹšŽŽů 'LJž result in the needless death of untold numbers of people.

This shows increased risk of emotional problems, amnesia, cataracts, muscle pain, liver and kidney troubles. But what should get everyone’s attention, particularly cardiologists, is that those on CLDs have a 25 to 50 percent risk of Type 2 diabetes. And patients with diabetes have a 50 percent chance of dying of heart attack. Ä‚ĹŹÄž dÄ‚Ä?ůĞ͕ :ÄžÇ ÄžĹŻĹŻÄžĆŒÇ‡ Θ ^Ä?Ä‚ĆŒÇ€ÄžĆ?Í• ĂŜĚĹ?ÄžĆ?

The Table encourages people to vote with everyone’s stomachs on their mind DEAR EDITOR: Access to good food is something that everyone requires to do well in their life. One way that the public shows its support for ensuring good food for all is the generosity shown to food banks, particularly at this time of harvest and thanksgiving. But, shouldn’t safe, healthy, and affordable food be at the top of the agenda when it comes to public policy debates at election time? Food banks are the main tool used to provide food access assistance in most communities. They play an important role in meeting an immediate need but food banks don’t address the reasons behind the fact that four million Canadians struggle to get enough healthy food. That is why The Table Community Food Centre joined Eat Think Vote, a national campaign led by Food Se-

cure Canada. The campaign is working to keep food on the agenda in the run up to the Oct. 19 federal election. The Table is also undertaking voter awareness and education to increase participation in the election and co-hosted the Sept. 21 all candidates meeting with the Lanark District Labour Council. The Table’s Community Action Network took the lead on voter education and held a series of vote pop ups to gauge local residents’ priorities on key issues for the upcoming election. The pop up polling stations also confirmed whether people were registered to vote, and answered questions about the mechanics of voting. The results of the polling showed that food security tied with health care in second place, getting 25 per cent of the vote each. The number one

issue was income inequality (36 per cent). These three issues are closely linked and show that 85 per cent of voters are most concerned about people’s ability to provide for their and their family’s basic needs. Lack of adequate health services locally, transportation, and affordable housing are a few of the most obvious examples. Of the demands on a strained budget, food is in a unique category, as a flexible expense, one that you can spend more or less on depending on circumstances, where rent, utilities, and most other major expenses are relatively

fixed. With food and other basic costs rising, the number of people who are food insecure is also rising. The Table sees this in an 11 per cent increase in households using its Good Food Bank so far this year. To reverse this disturbing trend there is an urgent need for a national food policy to ensure all people in Canada have access to healthy affordable sustainable food sources, and to ensure our agricultural sector can remain vibrant and growing. The Table hopes people will vote with their heads but will think of everyone’s stomachs when they do.

Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, delve deeper to get to know a new acquaintance more closely. There is more to this person than what you will see on the surface, so don’t hesitate to connect. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, expect to be pulled in a million directions over the next several days. Keep a cool head and you will handle this situation with the same flare you always do. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Take a step back and reassess a particular situation this week, Gemini. A step back and a new perspective might be just what you need to make the most of this situation. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, you sometimes have a sixth sense about you, and it guides you through the tough decisions that need to be made. Rely on your intuition for something major this week. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, you will be the king (or queen) of your domain this week. Others will respect your final decision on many issues, and you will feel comfortable being the head honcho. VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, you cannot dictate every situation. Not only can you get frazzled, but also others may begrudge your taking over all of the time. Go with the flow once in a while.

Make sure your automaker can connect with you for recalls Recalls still top the news in the auto industry so a few tips on finding out if your vehicle may be affected and how to proceed probably wouldn’t hurt. When recalls are launched by a carmaker, they notify their retailers of the repair details involved, parts requirements and availability, and a list of vehicles (sold by the relevant dealership). They also notify owners in their database by mail, with a letter explaining all of the above and request that their customers contact an authorized dealer service department for an appointment. If the recall involves a safety component or system, manufacturers are required by law to report their completion rate to Transport Canada and the US’ NHTSA (National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration). If the completion rate isn’t sufficient to meet regulations, carmakers must perform another mailing and sometimes will enlist dealership assistance in tracking down a registered owner. The first thing that owners need to do is to ensure that their automaker has correct contact information on file. For most

this doesn’t require any work as retailers submit all this data when they sell a new vehicle. If you own a vehicle you didn’t purchase new, you should check with your retailer to find out if they forwarded the change in ownership info to the relevant manufacturer. If you purchased your used vehicle from a private seller or from a non-authorized retailer, you may need to do this yourself. All auto companies provide instructions on their websites on how to do this. Sometimes it can all be done electronically and sometimes you’ll have to call a customer client centre to start the process. It shouldn’t cost you anything to have the vehicle file changed but you will be required to provide proof of ownership such as a copy of your vehicle registration. If your vehicle had an optional extended warranty purchased by the last owner, and if it still has time and distance coverage left, you may be able to transfer this into your name as well, but there is often a cost involved (it varies from carmaker to carmaker). You can do your own research on recalls via Transport Canada’s website at

Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER

www.tc.gc.ca and following the road link to a page that has a ‘recall database’ link. Here you can search by vehicle year, make, and model or by vehicle identification number (VIN). Their info pages on individual recalls go into some detail about the repairs required and if (according to their records) required parts are available. These pages also include a link to the relevant automaker’s website recall pages. While the overwhelming majority of recalls are covered cost-wise by the manufacturer, this isn’t always the case, and to the surprise of many, it isn’t mandated by law. Don’t be shy about asking. Recall repair details and required parts availability are often sore points

with both customers and retailers. Recall press releases may come out in the media before dealerships receive notification, related documents, and parts. As these retailers are often the first point of contact when a customer has a question, inquiries can lead to disappointing ‘We have no idea’ answers. If replacement parts are required, this may lead to another disappointment: availability. Dealerships have no control over how their manufacturers source, acquire, stock, and distribute parts. Many times carmakers will restrict the number of specific recall parts an individual dealership can order to prevent uneven distribution. The best way to get things resolved as soon as possible is to work with your retailer. If parts aren’t available ask to be put on a waiting list. Provide accurate and up-to-date contact info, so they can reach you to set up an appointment or update you on the recall status. (Make sure your info is updated with the manufacturer as well if it changes.) It’s well past the time for automakers to consider a better form of communication with their custom-

Safety Tips

Smoke Alarms:

Test your smoke alarms. If a fire starts in your home while you are asleep, you want to know about it immediately. Some homes are equipped with electrically connected smoke alarms that may not work when the power is out. Make sure your home has a batteryoperated smoke alarm on every level. SHUT DOWN!

Turn off the lights, the computer and the TV when they are not in use. Using only highly efficient and money saving appliances can reduce the electricity consumption of an average household to one tenth of the average.

Retire yourself – not your business You’ve built a thriving business over the years – now you’re ready to retire and you want your business to thrive without your daily guidance. The solution is effective succession planning – and one of the most important components of your plan should be reducing the tax burden on you and your successor(s) by maximizing the after-tax value of your business. Retirement is a “normal” transition but your succession plan should also identify appropriate exit strategies for other eventualities such as a “forced” transition due to unexpected events from physical or mental incapacity to death. If your succession plan doesn’t encompass all the possible exit eventualities, your successors could face an unexpected, potentially unaffordable tax bill. Here are other succession plan strategies to consider: Identify your replacement(s) Your successor could be a family member or someone else. Either way, you’ll need to consider their personal tax and financial situation. Confirm your assets and liabilities Include both family and business-related assets and all other investments that affect your overall tax situation and liquidity. Lack of liquidity during your succession can lead to business failure because tax bills can’t be paid. Insurance can be a good way to bridge this gap. Identify your tax reduction options Choose from these strategies: • Capital gains exemption You and your stakeholders may be able to benefit from the $813,600(2015 limit) lifetime capital gains exemption on qualified small business shares.

Invest in life. Contact us for more information.

Manage Your Money • Spousal trust This type of trust can ensure your beneficiaries are protected, while also deferring the capital gains tax on the asset held in trust until the death of the surviving spouse. • Freeze company value This provides an income-splitting opportunity and the ability to defer any increase in your tax liability. • Transfer ownership over time Sell the business to family members or other buyers over an extended period to spread the tax bill over a longer period and ease the cash flow pressure. Confirm your succession “readiness” Get your wills, contracts and other paper work in order and be sure it’s all readily available. Revisit your succession plan frequently to account for changing business and family/ stakeholder circumstance and revise your tax strategies accordingly. Identify your succession support You built your business but you don’t have to – and probably shouldn’t – plan its succession all by yourself. Your professional advisor can help you avoid a succession tax crunch and help you plan all the other aspects of your financial life, both business and personal.

IN MEMORIAM DEATH NOTICE

DEATH NOTICE

God called your name so softly That only you could hear No one heard the footsteps Of angels drawing near I often lie awake at night When the world is fast asleep And take a walk down memory lane With tears upon my cheeks Remembering you is easy I do it every day And missing you is heartache That never goes away I hold you close to my heart And there you will remain Until the joyous day arrives When we will meet again. Your Beloved Wife, Dora In Loving Memory of Dad He never looked for praises He was never one to boast He just went on quietly working For the ones he loved the most. His dreams were seldom spoken His wants were very few And most of the time his worries Went unspoken too. He was there… A firm foundation Through all our storms of life A sturdy hand to hold on to In times of stress and strife. A true friend we could turn to When times were good or bad One of our greatest blessings The man that we called Dad. Children: Gerry & Ellen, Betty & Ritchie, Tom & Marie, John & Cathy, Cheryl & Yvon and Families

Oct. 17 is Neil Diamond night at Studio Theatre Saturday night is “Neil Diamond Night” in Perth. That’s when award-winning tribute artist Will Chalmers and his band bring the unique excitement of a Neil Diamond concert to the stage of the Studio Theater. The highly anticipated Solitary Man show, now in its 14th year of hit performances, is one of the most popular tributes on the theatre circuit. Showtime is 8 p.m. The show’s star, Canadian

singer, actor and guitarist Will Chalmers, has been wowing audiences for decades with his virtuoso guitar playing and impeccable vocal performances. But the ever-humble artist says that the enduring popularity of Diamond’s music is the real star of the show and that’s why the fans come out night after night. Solitary Man shows are known as “audience participation” events. And audiences never fail

to join in with Will and the band; clapping, singing and having a great time. Will chalks this up to Neil Diamond’s amazing body of work by saying “they’re all hit songs and everybody knows the words”. Tickets to the show are $30, including all taxes and fees and are available at Shadowfax, 67 Foster St, Perth, 613-267- 6817, or online at www.shadowfax. on.ca.

that will affect and change a group of people’s lives forever. Recently, community and religious groups have gotten together to figure out how they can directly support Syrian refugees. When you see statistics outlining that four million Syrians are refugees – half of which are children – it’s not a difficult to determine why it’s important to reach out your hand and offer support. It costs about $30,000 per year to sponsor a family of four. St. John Church in Perth recently hosted an information night to seek interest from parishioners about sponsoring a family. Two weeks ago, the Perth and District Community Foundation brought together community leaders to decide how they’ll sponsor a Syrian family. To kick start the project, the Perth and District Community Foundation has set up a fund where individuals and organizations can financially contribute to start

the process. Donations can be made you decide to do in your retirement, online through CanadaHelps.org or by Rick, everyone wishes you all the best. contacting the PDCF office.

For those cold, winter months, the blades should operate in a clockwise direction, helping to push the warm air from the ceiling down into the room. In the summer, the blades should operate in a counter clockwise direction as a way of creating a nice, gentle wind.

Blue Wings’ big weekend: From nail-biting finish to blowout Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

The Perth Blue Wings are coming off of a high-octane weekend, which saw some high drama on Friday night. The Blue Wings defeated the Winchester Hawks 5 to 4 in a shoot-out on Oct. 9, which was enough for a win – only to have that victory eclipsed by a total, 6 to 1 victory over the Athens Aeros on Sunday, Oct. 11. “It was our most complete game of the year,� said coach Michael McLean during an interview on Tuesday, Oct. 13. “We badly out shot them. We played 60-minutes. The score could have been double that.� The Friday game was more of a grind, however.

“I wasn’t happy with our goal-tending on Friday night,� said McLean. “I give the guys credit for battling back,� pulling even with the Hawks, and then finally scoring their fourth goal with four minutes left in the fourth period, tying the game and pushing it into overtime. He gave some of the credit for Sunday’s win to goalie Johnathan Peacock. “I don’t think you can win anything, at any level, without goaltending,� said McLean. “You need the best goaltending to win.� Their next game is against the Renfrew Timberwolves in Perth on Friday, Oct. 16 at 7:30 p.m. The team remains in second place behind the Stittsville Rams.

“We need to keep winning,� hiring staff, was to Graham. said McLean. “Renfrew is one Graham was a legendary of those teams that is very skate sharpener, and he could strong.� “fix anything,� but, more than that, “once you have a trainer Remembering Rusty like him, you’re spoiled.� McLean said he was very Graham died on the mornimpressed with the turnout for ing of Thursday, Oct. 8, after the team’s late athletic trainer, a long battle with cancer.

Spartans, Blue Devils turn turkeys on the gridiron with trio of bowl losses Desmond Devoy

Blue Devil Conor Bingley hangs on for dear life, almost parallel to the ground, as he tries to bring down RedHawk Will Coxon in the junior game Oct. 10.

The published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!

Your family Thanksgiving turkey may have been cooked this past Monday, but Perth’s goose was cooked last Saturday. Three football teams from both of the town’s high schools were defeated in the three Turkey Bowl games on Saturday, Oct. 10. First, the scores: • Senior Game: The Almonte and District High School Thunderbolts (ADHS) defeated the St. John Catholic High School (SJCHS) Spartans 20 to 11. • Noon Junior Game: Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute RedHawks (SFDCI) beat the Perth and District Collegiate Institute (PDCI) Blue Devils 39 to 7. • 2 p.m. Junior Game: ADHS Thunderbolts defeated the SJCHS Spartans 41 to 6.

SFDCI came out early in the first quarter and scored twice to keep momentum that they maintained throughout the game against PDCI. Meanwhile, in the senior game, Almonte scored two early touchdowns. By halftime, the score was only 20 to 1. St. John rallied in the latter half of the game, but it was not enough to win. The trio of losses is actually an aberration of sorts for the Spartans season thus far. Just four days earlier, the junior team had beaten SFDCI 40 to 7 on Oct. 6. While the junior team had an earlier loss against Arnprior on Oct. 2, losing 41 to 29, they defeated cross-town rivals PDCI on Sept. 24 by a whopping 46 to 0. The senior team’s defence, meanwhile, had been very solid, with an Oct. 2 win, by a score of 70 to 0 over Fellowes High School from Pembroke, and a 36 to 0 win over Mackenzie High School on Sept. 24.

Curling club celebrates Perth’s 200th anniversary on ice Gemmell backs snowmobiles in town The Perth Curling Club is one of the many organizations that are celebrating the 200th anniversary of the Perth Military Settlement. Established in 1875, this historic club has put the 200th anniversary logos of three municipalities that were part of the original settlement: Drummond/North Elmsley, Perth and Tay Valley Township, on ice. According to club president, Barry Boyce, “we are more than happy to celebrate the 200th anniversary by commemorating this historical year with logos on each of the three sheets of ice. We’re thinking about other ways to celebrate the 200th such as putting a heritage theme on our closing bonspiel dinner dance next April.” The Perth Curling Club is a member-owned and operated club on the banks of the Tay River with 274 adult members plus a junior program for those aged seven and up. The curling season is just beginning so don’t hesitate to contact Cheryl Wood at 613-267-2162 for membership information or visit www.perthcurling.ovca.com. For more information about the 200th anniversary of the Perth Military Settlement, please contact Amber Hall, events and promotions co-ordinator, Tay Valley Township by telephone at 613267-5353 ext. 133 or by email:

Acting deputy mayor Ed McPherson would like to see snowmobiles in the Tay Basin this winter. McPherson has asked for a staff report to look into allowing snowmobiles into the town of Perth, to tap into a tourist revenue stream. During Perth town council’s committee of the whole meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 6, McPherson said that “we seem to stigmatize snowmobiles, but we love motorcyclists in the summer.” The idea has already gotten the thumbs up from Coun. Riq Turner. “I think this is something that is long overdue,” added Turner. “They bring a lot of money into the economy.” He added that the months after Christmas are the most difficult time for businesses, especially those downtown, and this idea would, literally, bring more traffic downtown. “There are a lot of communities that have this,” said actSubmitted by Mike Selig of the ing mayor John Gemmell. Perth Curling Club. However, Coun. Jim Boldt

expressed concerns over road safety. “A snowmobile that hits bare pavement can’t manouver as well,” as when it is on snow, said Boldt. But Gemmell, himself a former police officer, noted that “they (snowmobiles) follow the rules of the road.” However, McPherson said that he sees communities across the county with ATV by-laws, and added: “I don’t just want to see it on Highway 7,” but that he could see ATVs in the Tay Basin. Other traffic On traffic matters of a more mundane variety, Coun. Jim Graff informed council that he had spoken with Insp. Derek Needham, detachment commander for the Lanark County OPP, about concerns over cars failing to stop at the stop signs at the intersection of Drummond Street and South Street. “They have been watching that area very closely,” said Graff. “They did not see it as a serious problem.” Officers will keep an eye on it

Students step up, run out for Terry Fox at North Elmsley Public School Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

The Grade 5-6 class at North Elmsley Public School stepped up to save their school’s annual Terry Fox Run – and helped their teacher out of a bind. “They really have taken ownership of it,” said teacher Trina Boychuk as she watched about 90 students run and race by on the grounds of the North Elmsley Public School in Port Elmsley, Drummond/North Elmsley Township, on Thursday, Oct. 1. “It turned out fantastic. They have completely done it all, everything.” And what did she do? “I pressed play for our slide show,” during that morning’s assembly. “That’s it.” Her students began planning the event during the second week of school in September, as negotiations continued between the provincial government and her union. “It was pretty clear. I wasn’t allowed to collect money,” she said, or organize Desmond Devoy/METROLAND any aspect of the run, as she had done in Above: Gregory Riley, left, waves the flag, and adds a lap for Terry Fox, while Brandon the past. So, she threw it out to her students: “ “‘What do you think? Can we Dumouchel, right, waves to our photographer. do it?’ They said, ‘Yeah, we can do it.’” The school allows students 10 “treat days,” per year, but “they chose to sell healthy snacks because they thought that would make Terry Fox happy.”

So, fruit popsicles were on sale that day for parched students. She was also blown away by her students’ use of technology, which fits in with their new, more open-concept, media-centred classroom. “We are learning primarily through technology and hands-on technology,” said Boychuk, of their classroom’s green screen, and the iMovie

and PowerPoint programs she uses with her students. But her students went above and beyond this to help with the run. “They used programs that I didn’t know how to use,” said Boychuk. The students also related the project back to the curriculum, counting the money, for example, as part of their mathematics class.

Honda leaves no margin of error when it decides to overhaul one of its models. Updating successful cars like the Civic, the Accord and the Fit is not an easy task, but updating an SUV as popular as the Pilot is truly colossal. We’re happy to stay that Honda has taken up the challenge with panache. The new 2016 Pilot has abandoned its straight lines for a more fluid and modern shape. This third-generation model offers a more comfortable interior, giving more space to the occupants. Depending on the configuration, the three rows of seats can accommodate up to eight people. The power of the 3.5-litre V-6 280-horsepower engine

has been increased by 30 horses and is equipped with a cylinder deactivation system. Two automatic transmissions are on offer, which is extremely rare in the auto industry. The first has six gears and the second, which is reserved for the Touring and Elite models, has nine. The Pilot also includes some new trends, including a dualpane panoramic sunroof and an eightinch touchscreen. At the other end of the lineup, Honda is introducing the new 2016 HR-V. Smaller than the CR-V, the HR-V is an urban SUV that shares its platform with the Fit. Like the latter, it is equipped with Honda’s Magic Seats, the folding rear seats that enable the cargo space to be configured as required. A 1.8-litre four-cylinder 141-horsepower engine is combined with a CVT or a sixspeed manual transmission.

Dodge adds muscle to the race for power

The Dodge Viper has 8,000 exterior colour choices.

Despite the race for power that has always existed between car manufacturers, nobody would have believed that an American muscle car with 707-horsepower capability would ever be available on the market. Yet this is the feat that Dodge has accomplished in unveiling the SRT Hellcat version of its Challenger and Charger models. Under the hoods of these two monsters is a supercharged 6.2-litre V-8 that develops 650 lb-ft of torque. To manage all that strength, the TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission was redesigned. Performance is

breathtaking and both cars can cover a quarter mile in less than 11 seconds! A notch below them are the SRT 392 and Scat Pack Shaker versions, with a 6.4-litre HEMI V-8 engine delivering 485 horsepower. With this engine, only the Challenger can be equipped with an optional six-speed manual transmission. A 5.7-litre HEMI V-8 370-horsepower and a 3.6-litre V-6 300-horsepower engine are also available. For its part, the Viper retains its 8.4-litre V-10 engine, which can deliver 645 horsepower. This year, buyers can customize their Vipers with an amazing range of choices, including 8,000 different exterior colours (yes, you read that right!), six different Aero packages, 10 wheel options, 16 different interior trim packages and Nappa and Alcantara leather seat coverings. In total, there are 25 million possible combinations. To camouflage the thunderous noise of the V-10, the Harman Kardon sound system includes 18 speakers.

The Hellcat 6.2-litre V-8 develops 707 horsepower.

DRIVING IN WINTER WEATHER Be aware and slow down when you see a sign warning that you are approaching a bridge. Steel and concrete bridges are likely to be icy even when there is no ice on the asphalt surface, (because bridges over open air cool down faster than roads which tend to be insulated somewhat by solid ground.)

Change your wiper blades Helpful tips for Winter is just around the corner. With today’s cars and trucks requiring much less maintenance, many motorists have the tendency not to prepare their vehicles for winter (or any other season). Consequently, when the first cold rains or snowfalls appear, they wind up with a vehicle that is unable to cope with bad weather. Wiper blades are one item that is often overlooked. Many cars have worn-out blades that barely clean the windshield in the rain making driving very difficult, especially at night. Indeed, drivers only see glare when meeting oncoming vehicles. Wiper blades should be changed almost twice a year in order to get the best visibility possible. As for those of us who live in very cold or snowy areas, it is better to choose what is commonly called “winter wiper blades”. These are blades whose mechanism is covered with a rubber envelope designed to keep it free of

Winter wiper blades have rubber covers over their mechanism.

ice, thus allowing the blade to better rest against the windshield. Most service stations, auto parts stores and even large department stores can provide the correct blades for your vehicle. Remember that blades are not all alike and surprisingly, the blade on the driver’s side of some vehicles is a different length from the blade on the passenger side. Some cars even have unique blades that only the dealer can provide.

Readers’ Choice Award Winner Locally Owned and Operated

Pets who ride in the front seat may suffer considerable injuries if the vehicle they are in is involved in an accident.

When booking your trip, seek pet-friendly hotels and accommodations. Websites such as www.dogfriendly.com can provide a number of options. At the hotel, use white noise to keep dogs from barking at every passerby outside the room. Exercise the pet before retiring for bed so that he or she is as calm as possible before sleep. If your dog is unruly in an unfamiliar location, try offering a chew toy. The ASPCA says chewing and licking are very soothing to dogs and may help them fall asleep. One concern some pet owners have is a dog or cat who will not relieve himself in a place that is not familiar. Some dogs will hold it in, which can be uncomfortable and unhealthy. Cats may soil where they shouldn’t. A scent cue, such as a small amount of dirty litter or a piece of fabric with the pet’s urine on it, can be used to entice the dog or cat to relieve itself appropriately on vacation. Traveling with pets may be a choice or a necessity. Either way, pet owners should explore their options to make the experience more comfortable.

Many pet owners feel vacations are more fun with their furry companions in tow. Traveling can be more complicated when pets are part of the equation, but there are ways to ensure a comfortable and safe trip. The Humane Society of the United States says the safest and most comfortable way for pets to travel is inside a carrier or crate. Make sure the carrier is big enough so that the pet is comfortable and has some mobility, but not so big that he or she can be jostled around. Carriers and crates should be anchored to the vehicle using a seatbelt or another device. Carriers that can move or bounce around are dangerous to the pet and the occupants of the car. Airlines and railways often insist pets travel in carriers. The safest place for pets during a road trip is in the back seat of a car or in a rear cargo area when possible. In the event of a crash, air bag deployment can seriously injure a pet that is riding along in the front seat. Pet owners should put together a traveling kit that includes essential items their pets may need. Such essentials may include identification, a temporary travel tag for the collar with current contact information, vet records indicating the pet is current on its vaccinations, plastic bags, food, a favourite toy, and clean-up supplies in the event of motion sickness. Pets that drink water from an unfamiliar area may experience stomach discomfort, so bring some water along as well.

or winter road trips

Road trips are an autumn tradition for many people. Excursions to see the fall foliage can be awe-inspiring, but drivers must make sure their vehicles can handle such jaunts. Tire inspections are essential before hitting the open road. The following are a handful of steps drivers can take to ensure their tires are up to the task of fall road trips.

Give tires the eye test

The eye test can be an effective and quick way to detect tire damage. Uneven wear may be indicative of insufficient tire pressure or an alignment problem. Uneven wear also may indicate the vehicle is experiencing problems with its steering or suspension. But many times uneven wear can be remedied by a simple tire rotation, so take your vehicle to your mechanic if you notice uneven wear.

Look for cracking or bulging treads

Cracking or bulging treads or sidewalls can eventually cause a blowout, which can put you and your fellow road trippers in serious jeopardy. Cracked or bulging treads or sidewalls indicate tires are worn or weak, so bring your car to your mechanic for an inspection if you discover such problems.

www.gearheadztransmission.com “Don’t get stuck in neutral” THE EMC - 49 - Thursday, October 15, 2015

Uneven wear is not the only thing drivers can detect with their eyes. In the course of your travels, your tire might have picked up a few stowaways, such as nails and screws that are poking into the tire. If you find any freeloaders, take your car to your mechanic, as your tires may need to be replaced.

Check tire pressure

Right before you pack up the car to hit the open road, check each of your tires’ pressure, making sure the pressure in each tire is at the level recommended in your owner’s manual. Inflating tires to the proper pressure takes just a minute or so, but that minute can protect you and your passengers while also saving you money at the filling station. Properly maintained tires can go a long way toward ensuring the fall road trip season is a success.

In order to get the best possible fuel economy, many experts will give you some very useful advice, including that of keeping the trunk empty of unused items to minimize dead weight that uses up fuel. However, in the winter there are some items that should be kept in the trunk; these may seem like dead weight, but they are actually emergency tools in case of trouble. Because trouble comes in many shapes in the winter, you shouldn’t take any chances. Among the many items that should remain in your trunk over the winter, is a shovel. However, a full size shovel can be heavy and it can take up a lot of space in your trunk. So instead, why not buy one of those light, foldable shovels that are specifically designed to be stored in a car. Another useful item is a pair of traction

Get the right oil for winter

Plan your

fall foliage

Fall is a very busy season for garages and mechanics as there are still many people who like to service their vehicle before the winter. While some people will make an appointment with their dealer, many others with older vehicles still rely upon their trusted mechanics to have a look at their car or truck before the cold season. Among the many points to be checked is the engine oil. For many people, oil is oil and that’s all there is to it. But for car specialists, oil is a very technical matter to handle and choosing the right oil for their customers’ cars and trucks becomes a science for them. As a matter of fact, there are so many types of engine oils on the

road trip

Know when to go

Aim for a weekday

Many people plan fall foliage road trips on the weekend. These “leafers” or “peepers,” as they’re sometimes referred to, flood normally empty rural areas and can easily cause traffic jams. Schedule your own trip for a weekday so you can avoid most of the crowds and enjoy a more serene environment for hiking excursions or countryside visits.

Learn the best times of the year to see the peak leaf colours. Mountainous regions and many located in northern latitudes will see changes in leaf colour earlier than other regions. Drivers living in certain areas of Canada, regions of the Rocky Mountains or in particular parts of New England can expect to witness leaves changing colour as early as September, while much of the midwest can expect peak colour in mid- to lateOctober. Southern regions may not see leaves change colour until November.

If you plant to stay overnight, book your trip as early as possible and don’t be surprised if costs are high. Autumn is not only a peak time for leaf colour changes, but also it’s a prime time for vacationers interested in comfortable temperatures and amazing scenery, so autumn lodging rates may be equal to or exceed the rates charged during the height of summer vacation season.

GAS AND HEAVY DUTY

Fall foliage may be at its most vibrant at sunrise and sunset when the sun is low in the sky and will not cast much glare. Slightly overcast days also may help leaves’ colours pop, but too much cloud cover may cause a lack of vibrancy in leaf colour. Autumn weather can be unpredicable. Some days it may be crisp, while other days it will be hot. Sometimes you may experience hot and cold weather on the same day.

market, that today some knowledge is required in order to keep up with all that is offered. As a motorist, you might be surprised to learn that even older engines will start and even run better with lighter oils during the cold months of winter. That’s why many car manufacturers will suggest a 5W-30 engine oil during the cold season. The number 5 identifies the lightness of the oil when it is cold, the W indicates it is designed for winter use and the 30 means that when the engine has warmed up, the oil will have thickened to a 30 weight capability. The engine will then start more easily with the light oil and will be well protected at speed as the oil thickens slightly.

Four fluids to check before winter comes

safe on

wintery roads

With winter now on the horizon once again, many motorists are looking for ways to ensure their daily commutes or holiday trips to visit family and friends are as safe as possible. When wintry conditions, including snowfall, compromise driving conditions, it’s best for motorists to stay home. But avoiding roadways altogether is not always an option, so motorists who simply must venture out onto the roadways this winter can employ the following strategies to ensure they safely arrive at their destinations.

Consider winter tires

Many drivers are unsure if they need winter tires. All-season tires may suffice for those drivers who live in regions where heavy snowfall is uncommon. But winter tires are designed to perform when the temperatures are especially cold and in driving conditions featuring ice, slush and snow. Drivers who live in regions where snowfall is significant or even expected to be significant may want to install winter tires just to be on the safe side. Some drivers mistakenly believe that vehicle features such as anti-lock braking systems and traction control make their tires more capable of handling wintry roads. But such features do not provide more traction. ABS and traction control only prevent drivers from over-braking or overpowering the traction of their tires. Only better tires will improve traction.

Drive slowly

Don’t drive too closely to other motorists

In addition to driving slowly, motorists also should leave extra room between their vehicles and the vehicles in front of them. In such conditions, for every 10 miles per hour drive a minimum of four car lengths behind the motorist in front of you. So if you are

Engine oil

Experts recommend having your engine oil changed at the same time that you have your winter tires put on. Ideally, synthetic oil should be used be­cause its composition im­proves engine performance while re­ ducing fuel consumption.

Brake oil

During the winter, brakes are put to the test on a regular basis. Check the level of your brake fluid in the fall, before you start driving on icy roads. If it’s below the recommended amount, it’s probably because the brake pads are worn. How­ever, if it’s very low, it could be a sign of a leak in the bra­king system.

Transmission oil

In freezing temperatures, old transmission oil tends to lose its fluidity. Transmission oil that’s too thick can cause problems, especially when starting the engine. If necessary, have it replaced in order to reduce the risk of problems occurring and to prevent wear on mechanical components.

Winter storms often make for unsafe driving conditions, and motorists must alter their habits when making winter trips.

Antifreeze

driving 50 miles per hour, be sure to leave 20 car lengths between you and the car ahead of you. This gives you ample time to react and builds in some extra response time should your visibility be compromised.

It’s essential that you have your antifreeze checked before winter arrives. If levels are low, your vehicle’s cooling system could freeze up completely during spells of ex­treme cold.

For stress-free winter driving, make sure you have your vehicle’s fluids checked this fall.

Maintain your vehicle

A vehicle should be maintained regardless of the season, but it’s especially important that your vehicle perform at its peak in winter. A vehicle’s battery and windshield wipers are a winter driver’s best friend, but only if they are operating at optimal capacity. Being stranded on a roadside in winter is more dangerous than in any other time of year. That’s because driver visibility is more compromised in winter, and it can be hard for motorists to see or avoid vehicles on the side of the road. Maintain proper fluid levels and make sure your battery is charged and the gas tank is full before making any winter trips. Wintry conditions often make driving especially hazardous. But drivers who adopt certain habits when driving in winter can greatly reduce their risk of accidents.

Many drivers mistakenly believe they only need to drive slow when snow is falling. But winter weather can make roadways unsafe even in areas that have not witnessed a single snowflake fall from the sky. Wet winter roads can quickly turn into icy winter roads, and no ABS system or traction control device can prevent a car that’s traveling too fast from skidding out. Poor visibility is another reason to drive slowly in winter. Peripheral vision is often compromised when driving in winter, as dirt, salt or sand buildup on windshields and side windows and mirrors can make it hard for motorists to fully view their surroundings. Even if your vision is not compromised, a fellow motorist’s might be. So ease up on the gas pedal in winter so you have more time to react to potentially adverse conditions.

Winter is practically on our doorstep, so it’s time to prepare your car for the rigours of freezing temperatures. The first step is to make sure your vehicle’s fluids are topped off and are of winter-grade quality. Listed below are the four major automotive fluids you should have checked by a service professional this fall.

PREPARE YOUR CAR FOR WINTER

riding tips

Car fluids and winter weather

for bikers

Check your engine coolant level and ensure the cooling system is properly filled. If it needs a top off, use a pre-diluted antifreeze or mix in a solution of one part antifreeze with one part water (preferably distilled water to prevent corrosion). If it’s been several years since you’ve serviced the cooling system, flush the system and refill it with the appropriate mixture of antifreeze and distilled water. Inspect the coolant hoses and radiator for wear as well.

The arrival of cooler temperatures means motorcycle enthusiasts should have a plan in place for their vehicles. Although fall sees many riders pack their bikes into the garage to wait out the winter, many others see no reason to quit the great outdoors just because colder weather is on the way. No matter which path riders take and when they take it, preparation is essential when riding motorcycles. Here are a few pointers for riders to consider once the leaves have started to change.

Layering clothing is a key component of riding a motorcycle in colder temperatures. Many people are not very active on the back of a bike, so they will not generate enough heat on their own. Layering clothing will take the bite out of frosty winds and any precipitation that happens to be falling. Layer clothing so that you will feel comfortable, maybe even a bit warm when you are just standing around outdoors. A first layer of thermal or fleece is a good idea. Then layer other materials as needed for comfort. Just do not wear so many layers that your mobility is compromised. If layers are not keeping you warm enough, invest in heated clothing. The outermost layer you wear should be weather- and windresistant. Wind chill can quickly sap your energy and cut your ride considerably. Leather clothing will fit the bill in most cases, but a rain suit or some other waterproof material also may be necessary at times.

Salt and sand

Road maintenance crews will use sand and salt to keep roads clear when snow and ice forms. Avoid riding on salty roads because the salt can corrode chrome and paint. If you choose to do any winter riding, apply a coat of wax to all parts of the motorcycle before going for a ride. This will help protect it and enable any salt to be easily wiped off after riding.

613-264-0872 ABS@storm.ca

Riders should exercise caution when riding motorcycles in late autumn and winter.

Leaves

Leaves can be a significant hazard to riders in the fall. Damp leaves can make a slippery mess of roads, particularly on turns and curves. Avoid all piles of leaves, as you do not know what may be hiding beneath them. Consider wet leaves as dangerous as black ice, as soggy leaves can be just as slippery.

Standing water

If it rains or snows lightly after an extended period of dryness, oils in the road can come to the surface, making roads quite slick. In addition, stay on the lookout for puddles and other standing water. While motorcycle tires are good for displacing water, they still can hydroplane. Stay focused on wet surfaces.

Winterizing

If you choose to store your bike when the weather starts to get cold, remember to put a fuel stabilizer in the tank, fill the tank with gas and hook the battery up to a battery tender. ensuring your bike is ready to hit the road when the temperatures warm up.

Foraging animals

One potential hazard riders may not consider is wildlife. Harvested crops reduce easy food sources, and animals may be on the move looking for food. Deer can be pushed out of fields by hunters. A collision with a deer can damage a car, never mind a motorcycle. Always use caution in rural areas, particularly at dawn and dusk.

PREPARE YOUR VEHICLE FOR WINTER

Brand Spotlight

Ford continues to overhaul its lineup In 2016, Ford is banking on the overhaul of its Explorer midsized SUV and the unveiling of different versions of the Mustang coupe in order to acquire more market share. This famous pony car can now be found on the roads of five continents, including such countries as China, France and Australia. The all new Mustang Shelby GT350 was unveiled with a new 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V-8 engine that develops 526 horsepower. Designed for racing, this engine can produce up to 8,250 revolutions per minute! To reduce weight and improve aerodynamic lift, the design of the GT350 uses several technologies, including aluminum and some innovative wind deflectors. By using more carbon fibre and by removing some of the equipment (air conditioning, rear seats, spare tire, etc.), the R version of the Shelby GT350 has been lightened by an additional 58 kg.

Wiper Blades

Rain, hail, sleet and snow are usually on the winter agenda and old wiper blades dried and cracked from the heat of summer can dramatically impede visibility. New windshield wiper blades are a quick and easy solution to this problem. For colder climates, make sure to have a windshield scraper handy, and add market-approved windshield washer fluid to your windshield washer reservoir.

WINTER Tires

High-performance summer tires work great during the summer. Summer tires in winter however, not so much. While the statement sounds obvious, many forget to change tires with the change of seasons. For winter climates with freezing temperatures, winter tires are a must. Summer tires have next to no grip on frozen roads, taking exponentially more distance to come to a stop. R0013489957

As for the new Explorer, the style of the bodywork and the interior layout are more modern. The all new Platinum version has a distinctive grille and rims. The more luxurious interior has a leather-wrapped dashboard with contrasting stitching and Nirvana leather seats. Under the hood is the new 2.3-litre four-cylinder turbo 280-horsepower Ecoboost, which replaces the 2.0-litre

Ecoboost. For extra power, the 3.5-litre V-6 365-horsepower Ecoboost is optional, while the 3.5-litre 290-horsepower naturally-aspirated V-6 engine is still in service. As for new technologies, the Escape and Fiesta models feature SYNC 3, the new connectivity system with a faster interface that approximates that of a smartphone.

UNPLUG!

In the average home, 75% of the electricity used to power home electronics and appliances is consumed while the products are turned off. These “phantom energy” costs can be avoided by unplugging devices like cell phone chargers and househouse electrical appliances when they’re not in use. THE EMC - 60 - Thursday, October 15, 2015
