OVER THE BACK FENCE
A few years ago, in this space, I made a list of things my Mom taught me. As we had into Father’s Day weekend, I thought I would honour my Dad with some of the things he taught me.
How to be kind: Throughout his life, Dad went out of his way to smile at a stranger, give change to a homeless person, give his time to the local hockey association, or tend to a wounded animal at the side of the road. Through his humanitarian work with Canairelief during the Biafran war, he was instrumental in saving thousands of lives during a horrific time in history. He showed me that the little things you do for another human being can make a huge difference in their lives.
How to never give up: Dad wasn’t conventional when it came to jobs. He had many over the years, including selling life insurance, owning a fish import business in Kitchener, and doing odd jobs to pay the bills. Although he didn’t see his dream of an international relief organization come to fruition, he spent years going through hoops with
government officials and investors to try to make it so. Some would say he was stubborn, but I see it now as willing to put himself out there no matter what the outcome.
How to love: Some folks say that a woman marries a man like their father. I did ... I married a kind, funny, gentle man who treated me like I was his queen. I loved my late husband with everything I had, as my Dad loved my Mom.
My Dad was my hero and he passed away much too soon. I realize that I have now lived more years without him and I did with him. He missed some of the milestones in my life, but as I stand in the beautiful Kawarthas listening to the birds and the wind through the trees, I know he is watching over me and is proud of the woman I have become.
It takes a lot to be a Dad. Any man can be a father, but Dads today come in all shapes and sizes. Give thanks this weekend to the one you consider your Dad – no matter who it is.
Be kind to one another out there. And be thankful.

FATHER’S DAY FISHING
In honour of Father’s Day on Sunday, the province is offering free fishing this weekend.
“Father’s Day weekend is a great time to get out on one of Ontario’s beautiful lakes or rivers and enjoy fishing,” said Graydon Smith, Minister of Natural Resources. “Fishing is a fun activity for everyone in the family and it’s a great way to spend time together, so I encourage you to cast a line June 15 and 16 to celebrate Father’s Day.”
Right now, you can fish for many species, including yellow perch, common carp, northern pike, lake trout and walleye in most of Ontario. Some waterbodies have exceptions; be sure to check the Fishing Regulations Summary before heading out so you are aware of all limits on how many fish you can keep.
If you are fishing for free during this period, you need to carry identification issued by the provincial or federal government, showing your name and date of birth.

Horoscopes
Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) Count on your inner resources – of which you have many – during this phase, Aquarius. You may need them to deal with ongoing problems or difficulties that arise. But you will handle it all well.
Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) There are so many things in life we cannot control, dear Pisces. How we wish we could! But, always keep in mind, there is one thing you can control. That is YOU, your actions and responses.
Aries (March 21 to April 20) “Every particle in nature, a leaf, a drop, a crystal, a moment of time is related to the whole, and partakes of the perfection of the whole.”: Ralph Waldo Emerson. We all united in all we do, Aries!
Taurus (April 21 to May 21) Expect the unexpected, Taurus. During this zodiac phase, you may find yourself presented with unanticipated events or information. Be ready!
Gemini (May 22 to June 22) Gemini, take time to “sit a spell”, as the old folks would say. Slow down a teensy bit – or more – and watch the sun set, the flowers bloom, the squirrels play, and the rain fall.
Cancer (June 23 to July 23) Resist the pressure with which you may be faced, moving into the next few weeks, Cancer. It could be from work or family issues. Remember to trust your own convictions.
LocaL Trades & services
By Melodie McCulloughLeo (July 24 to Aug. 23) Live and learn, Leo! Education is not always found sitting at a desk in a school building. Experiences in the outside world are just as important, so welcome them!
Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) Let your artistic side grow during this time, Virgo. Creativity is good for the brain – it lets you imagine something and then produce, giving great satisfaction.
Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) It’s vacation time, Libra, and that could mean stress! Why not keep things simple this year? There’s no need to return from a holiday exhausted and tense.
Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) We all fall or fail sometimes, Scorpio. That’s why we need family and friends – or professional help – to see us through these tough times. Reach out if need be.
Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Let the world in, Sag! Stop hiding your true self and let others see the beauty and integrity that lies within you. You will, no doubt, be pleasantly surprised by the result.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Sometimes the black dog of depression may nip at your tail, dear Capricorn. Know there is another day and another chance to live without it – in peace.
