Off the top

When I found out the Kawartha North Family Health Team (KNFHT) was holding a focus group in Bobcaygeon last Wednesday afternoon (Feb. 12), I decided to report on it, anticipating that the town’s residents would want to have input into future programming.

I was wrong.

Only two members of the general public bothered to show up to meet with consultant Liza Hancock at the service centre. I decided to actively participate, rather than just cover the event, because I thought putting three heads together might help Liza in her mandate of reporting back to the powers that be at KNFHT.

She wanted to know what health programs people are interested in with 13 suggestions, for example, yoga, meditation and mindfulness.

She pointed out how Fenelon Falls is running a Biggest Loser program and has a weekly walking program at the new Fenelon Falls

community centre. Would locals be interested in something like that here in Bobcaygeon? The two members of the public that did attend said they were interested in programming but if KNFHT makes its decisions based on feedback, Bobcaygeon could drop to the bottom of the list. I just hope that Bobcaygeon residents took the time to fill out the survey that the KNFHT distributed to ensure their voices are heard. Incidentally, only one person registered for a similar forum in Fenelon Falls Feb. 13.

One thing that did come across during the forum is that attitudes towards health are certainly changing. We are realizing the importance of preventative health and the common sense approach of eating well, exercising and taking care of our minds and spirits, not just our bodies.

We are lucky to have the KNFHT here in our community, willing to put on programs. We need to patronize these programs and help in their planning if we want them to remain. editor@thepromoter.ca

I have been paying taxes to the City of Kawartha Lakes for the last 12 years.

I am a proud, but very disturbed, owner of a cottage in the Kawartha Lakes. My cottage is on the Gull River in Norland and is mainly used in the summer, on weekends and two weeks of summer holidays.

February 21, 2014 - The Kawartha Promoter

Our cottage required a few repairs and my husband went up on the weekends in November to fix these and we were also, so I thought, fortunate enough to spend Christmas at the cottage for the first time since we bought it in 2002.

When we are at the cottage, I always believe in shopping locally and supporting the community.

Over Christmas we had dinner at the Riverside Inn, grocery shopped at the Foodland in Coby and did some Christmas shopping in the area.

After Christmas at the cottage, which we fully enjoyed, we have now received a bill from Hydro One for close to $1,000. Happy New Year.

I understand that because I spent time at the cottage and we were using electricity, my Hydro bill would be higher. Of course you pay for what you use. Understandable. What I do not understand is the delivery charge of over $500. And tax on top of that of $120.

This bill was four times the amount of my bill for the same period last year. I called Hyrdo One and although the operator was sympathetic all they could say really was costs have gone up.

My husband and I are four years to retirement and are in the process of deciding “what next”.

We had always discussed rebuilding a home on our present cottage property but please tell me “How do people afford to live in the Kawarthas?”

My cottage does not have a washer, dryer, dishwasher or any of the things I would have if I converted to a home.

As recommended by (Mayor) Ric McGee’s office, I have written to Laurie Scott, MPP for the area and she has promised to address this issue.

Are there more people out there that feel they are being gouged by Ontario Hydro? We need to put a stop to these outrageous fees. Don’t get me started on my having to pay to reduce their debt.

What’s with that?

Re: $3 million savings

It is indeed good news that the Black and Green Belt teams of the Six Sigma process were able to “find” $3 M in savings.

After taxpayers paid over $300,000 to achieve this result, we should be pleased.

Village Baptist Church is hosting our 3rd

FREE PANCAKE BREAKFAST at the Royal Canadian Legion March 4th 8am - 11am

After inquiring, I have found that the savings are $3.12 million. Because this money was saved, it stays with the city – no repayment or tax relief for taxpayers. $1.8 million is money that will avoid having to be paid in 2015 and the new city councillors will decide how best to spend that money... no tax rebate. As (Ward 6 Coun.) Doug Elmslie said “the new council will make a decision whether to use that money for infrastructure or reduce spending.” A good question to ask your candidates during the election. The money will go into one of many reserve funds and the cost of the six sigma program will be repaid out of the savings.

As a taxpayer and supporter of this spending, I’d like to see some benefit coming back to the good citizens who pay for all of this - even if it was a token tax reduction. I’d use the found money to cover part of the Hydro One bill this year. How about you?

The Feb. 11 council meeting was highlighted by the granting of funds from various committees throughout the Kawartha Lakes.

Lindsay C.H.E.S.T. Fund allocations for 2014

Total interest earned in 2013 has been estimated at $550,742.53. It was recommended $100,000 of that be allocated to the principle. As a result, total funding available for 2014 distribution was $450,742.53

At its meeting on Dec. 9, the Lindsay Legacy C.H.E.S.T. Fund Committee (four councillors and five Lindsay citizens) reviewed 13 applications, requesting a total of $765,336.04.

Seven were recommended for full funding, three for partial funding and three were not recommended due to not meeting council criteria.

One of the grants of note is to the Academy Theatre - $111,640 to re-point brickwork, replace windows and wooden shutters,

refurbish wood cladding and replace or rebuild the existing marquee.

While council approved the disbursements, a motion was passed that an analysis be implemented to ensure remaining funds are getting the maximum returns possible. Ward 13 Coun. Pat Warren asked that the Bobcaygeon funds be included in the analysis.

Fenelon Falls C.H.E.S.T. Fund allocation

In the absence of a community committee, a recommendation was brought to council by Ward 6 Coun. Doug Elmslie regarding the fund allocation for 2014. This is in keeping with the established policy for the disposition of residual C.H.E.S.T. funds. In this regard, $10,000 was recommended to be given to the Fenelon Falls Skating Club.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the club and a committee is planning to host a celebration for current and former members, their families,

friends and the community. The event is scheduled to take place at the Fenelon Falls Community Centre on Saturday, March 29.

Disbursement would leave a balance of $47,700.88 for future distribution.

The Beautification Fund

The goal is to provide assistance in the four geographic regions of the city. The funds are for the purpose of enhancement projects, primarily intended for downtown/business area streetscapes.

The four areas requested a total of $80,564.50 and the Community Services Department recommended $75,564.50. Under cultural funding, five applications are being recommended to receive full funding of $9,255.

The 50/50 Community Project Capital Funding initiative

Community groups are invited to make one application per year to a maximum of $7,500 with a minimum 50% of funding being contributed by their organization.

Eight applications were received with seven being recommended to receive full funding. The total amount requested is $41,075.25 of which $33,575.25 is granted.

Lakeview Water Co-op

on land owned by the township, which was granted.

Since then, homeowners have brought in bottled water for drinking and cooking.

The MOE’s mandate is to ensure every home has potable water. This has been an on-going problem for the city and the Lakeview residences for many years and the most pressing issue is funding because many of the residences cannot afford the cost nor can the city.

Septic Rehabilitation Program – Update

Corporate services manager Christine Norris asked council to approve a recommendation to borrow $150,000 from the economic development reserve for the 2014 septic rehabilitation program.

This is to fund the pilot project and as funds come in to repay the reserve.

Local improvement charges established under the program are to be paid to the city by property owners participating in the program through their annual tax assessment. An additional 1% is to be levied for the purpose of recovering the city’s investment income on the funds used by the program. It was approved.

Vehicle acquisitions

The city’s purchasing department recommended that council approved the purchases of five new plow trucks from Winslow Gerotamy Motors, Peterborough, and one low floor Specialized Transit Bus from Crestline Coach, Ltd., Saskatoon plus nine pick-up trucks from Checkpoint Chrysler, St. Catherines for $1,632,194.80.

Dealerships in the city were invited to submit proposals. The city is part of the Provincial Broader Public Sector (BPS) and is eligible to receive vehicle discounts through this consortium. The program provides the city with the lowest possible price based on the province’s negotiated rates where they have issued tenders.

In an unscheduled and non-agenda item, Mayor Ric McGee advised council, and in particular included the media, to be aware that in the coming weeks the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) will be issuing a directive that will require the city to take over the Lakeview Water Co-op and provide them with potable water. Apparently the city will be given 90 days to ‘make it right’.

In a tirade, he accused the MOE of “using their heavy handed authority” and “unbelievable and unacceptable financial disaster.”

T�e��e�e�ra���������ver N�����a��

Someone very special has died and a gathering is planned. It used to be called a funeral service. Now it is commonly called a Celebration of Life Service – it is very important to truly celebrate every life lived. I think of our Dad's 91-year-old life. We had much to celebrate: he was a unique parent and grandparent, fisherman, farmer, storyteller, cook, writer, musician and inventor. At the visitation, everyone had years of comical stories to tell and we just soaked it all in like a big sponge.

The funeral home rang with laughter.

This continued into the funeral the next day. But then, the celebration was over.

Extended family and friends returned to their daily routines, and all we had was each other. For a while we felt rather numb on the inside; it didn't seem real.

Was it just a dream? But as time went on, our loss began to unfold and became all too painfully real. Waves of grief washed over us and the only way to cope was to ride it out. We cried until we had no more tears. Over the next week or so we clung together as a family. We had gaping, jagged holes in our hearts. It was now that we needed hugs and kind words and the support of our friends. I realize our society is more comfortable with celebrating than grieving, but loss must be acknowledged. While you cannot take away the pain of loss, you can provide much-needed comfort and support – starting by letting people know you care. Coping with death is more than a sprint: it is a marathon, and we need lots of support along the journey.

February, 2014 Melodie McCullough

Aries (March 21 to April 20) During this phase, Aries, we are hearing a lot of music in your life. So get out there and perform, dance or just listen to some great tunes. It’s a lovely way to spend a day!

Taurus (April 21 to May 21) “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”: Nelson Mandela. Educating yourself is a life-long pursuit, Taurus, which will never let you down – and don’t think it only takes place in school. Life, itself, is a commanding instrument of instruction. Learn something new each day!

Gemini (May 22 to June 22) Are the February blues getting you down? Try to remember: the days are getting longer, the sun climbs higher in the sky, and there is nothing like the blue of a beautiful sky on a bright February day! Look on the positive side!

Cancer (June 23 to Jul 23) Dear Cancer, your sign foretells that you will be romantic and idealistic in love, wanting everything to be perfect right from the moment you set eyes on a potential partner. Be on the look-out for this trait – and realize you cannot have a perfect relationship 100% of the time. Give and take!

Leo (July 24 to Aug. 23) Hey, Leo! It’s time to relax! No need to fret about the minor day-today cares. They will take care of themselves. Sit back, enjoy this time of leisure before the rush of spring arrives with all the new responsibilities and activities it might bring. Do a little dreamin’!

Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) Your career plans must take top priority now, Virgo. Calmly organize your thoughts and plot your strategies accordingly.

Get a blueprint in your head and don’t let go!

Local Trades & Services

Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) Come what may, dear Libra, it is time to show your true feelings.

Speak up and speak out. Do not be deterred by uncomplimentary criticism from others who do not understand you. Have faith in yourself!

Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) You may be the lucky recipient of some unexpected cash during this phase, Scorpio. Please, and we can’t emphasize this enough, use it wisely! Do not spend it all at once. Keep some for a rainy day.

There may be cloudy skies ahead.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Whoa! Your love life is tangled somewhat, dear Sag! But we think the mutual affection and friendship you share with this person will win out in the end.

Be kind. Be caring.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Life has been busy this past little while, but your days ahead will be less hectic, Capricorn, so breathe a little easier. There may be a wedding to look forward to in the next few weeks.

Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) Originality.

Hmm … what does that word mean to you, Aquarius? Is it speaking your mind? Inventing something new and wonderful? Imagining an unknown world? We say … it can be whatever you choose! Let your creativity flourish and watch what transpires.

Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) Time to step out of your fantasy world, Pisces, and face some realities, hard as this may be. The road ahead is not as bad as it may seem from your initial perspective. Engage family and friends to help you face the path yet to be.

Barber continues battle

BOBCAYGEON – More than two years after an alleged assault by two Peterborough County police officers at a RIDE stop, a Bobcaygeon businessman’s case is continuing.

Local barber Stephen Clarke will go before a Toronto judge Mar. 7 to argue pre-hearing motions in the case.

In a statement of claim in a $1.25 million civil lawsuit, Clarke says he thought he had come upon an accident scene on Dec. 3, 2011, not a RIDE stop, and his failure to immediately stop resulted in Const. Jason Katz swearing and yelling at him, choking him, striking him in the face three times with his elbow and breaking his glasses. He said Const. Mike Davidson forcefully pulled him out of his car and threw him on the ground where both officers roughly handcuffed, dragged and frisked him before throwing him into a cruiser.

He filed a statement of claim in Toronto Superior Court in late November against the two constables, Sgt. Brad Rathbun, the Attorney General of Ontario and Crown Attorney Jim Hughes. A statement of defense has yet to be filed and none of the allegations have been proven in court.

At the time, Clarke was charged with failing to identify himself under the Highway Traffic Act and assault with intent to resist arrest but says he never had a chance to identify himself and never resisted arrest nor assaulted a police officer.

The Mar. 7 hearing concerns a motion by the defendants - to have some named parties in the civil suit dropped and parts of Clarke’s claims removed as “irrelevant, immaterial, scandalous, embarrassing, argumentative or containing the pleading of evidence, opinion or unsupported legal conclusion.”

A Ministry of the Attorney General spokesman confirmed that on Mar. 7, Ontario’s motion to strike the statement of claim is scheduled to be heard at the Superior Court of Justice in Toronto. Brendan Crawley said a statement of defence is not required until after the motion to strike is decided and “as this matter is subject to litigation, it would be inappropriate to comment further.”

The case is continuing.

Health & Wellness Driven to quit is back

KAWARTHA LAKES - The Driven to Quit Challenge is revving up again to give local smokers a chance to win a brand-new vehicle and get on the road to tobacco-free living.

After a one-year break, the Driven to Quit Challenge returns in 2014 to give people the opportunity to win a brand-new Dodge Avenger or Dodge Journey, or one of seven $1,000 cash prizes.

All contest entrants have to do is stay tobaccofree for the month of March with the help of a ‘buddy,’ who is also eligible to win a cash prize of $100. The challenge is organized by the Canadian Cancer Society.

During the last challenge in 2012, nearly 680 people entered the contest from the health unit’s region, which includes the City of Kawartha Lakes.

It is open to Ontario residents 19 years of age and older. To enter, visit www.driventoquit.ca or call the Smokers’ Helpline at 1-877-513-5333. Deadline to register is midnight on Feb. 28. Every person who enters will receive discount coupons towards the purchase of nicotine patches and gum.

In addition to receiving support from their quit buddies, contestants can also get help in their quest to stay tobacco-free by accessing the free services available through the Smokers’ Helpline (www. smokershelpline.ca).

Doctor joins radiology team

LINDSAY – Ross Memorial Hospital is proud to highlight a regional radiology team which supports care with partners Peterborough Regional Health Centre (PRHC), Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH), and both locations of the Haliburton Highlands Health Services (HHHS).

This team of 15 radiologists provide care and specialist consultation at RMH, PRHC, CMH and HHHS, improving access to diagnostic imaging in each community.

“RMH is very proud of this regional partnership where our patients can receive high quality specialist services in our own community,” said Dr. Bert

18 February 21, 2014 - The Kawartha Promoter

Lauwers, VP Medical. “Radiologists are imperative to the diagnostic process, and partnerships such as this one are key to providing exceptional patient care.”

Dr. Thomas Enright, (pictured above) radiologist joined the team of radiologists in July from Queen’s University where he received his medical education and specialization.

A radiologist reads and interprets images from diagnostic procedures such as CTs (computerized tomography), MRIs (Magnetic Resource Imaging), ultrasounds, x-rays, breast imaging and nuclear medicine. Radiology is growing even more important in our modern healthcare system to a point where in many cases treatment cannot begin until these specialists pinpoint the problem.

“I am very honoured to have joined this team, and I am excited to be a part of such an important regional program,” says Dr. Enright. “Patients would not be able to receive the high-quality patient care and quick access they expect and deserve without regional partnerships like this one.”

Home-made Baby Food Workshop Series

FENELON FALLS - What’s in the jar of food you feed your baby? That’s easy to answer if you make it yourself.

A series of four Monday workshops at St James Anglican Church in Fenelon Falls will give young parents the confidence they need to prepare nutritious food simply and give them better control over their children’s nutrition.

“Commercial baby food can’t compete with all the ways home-made food is better for baby,” says Diane Engelstad, coordinator of the workshops.

“With home-made food, parents know exactly what their child is eating and in what quantities; they can introduce a variety of textures gradually, and they can offer variations of the same food the family is eating. From the very beginning they can practice

cooking nutritious food for their children and that’s a really important gift to any family.”

St. James is partnering with Ontario Early Years centres and Haliburton-Kawartha-Pine Ridge Health Unit (HKPR), among others, for the workshops. They will be held Mar. 3, 17, 31, and Apr. 14, from 10 a.m. to noon, at St. James Anglican Church, 7 Bond St. E. Child care will be provided. Call Diane at 705887-7169 for more information and registration.

Community Cares

It can be one of the most satisfying personal undertakings that anyone experiences, and it has tremendous value for local residents.

Every year, Community Care City of Kawartha Lakes relies upon the expertise and heart of close to 800 volunteers, who give time and talent to almost every program and service that the agency offers.

The value of volunteers is priceless, especially to the clients who are helped to remain living independently and healthily.

The agency is fortunate to have so many volunteers, but such a large contingent also means challenges. At this time of year, many Community Care volunteers are elsewhere for the winter months, perhaps enjoying warmer conditions in more temperate locales. Their good fortune leaves a void in the agency’s volunteer corps, however, and there remain clients who continue to need support.

For example, the agency’s Adult Day Program in Bobcaygeon requires a volunteer to drive clients to the program’s location, as the long-time regular drivers are on vacation.

The Adult Day Program provides muchappreciated social, physical and recreational activities for clients with special needs. The program is offered several times a week in four different CKL communities, including three times a week at Trinity-Providence United Church, Bobcaygeon. The service gives clients a great social opportunity and gives caregivers a few hours’ respite from looking after a family member or friend. The program is coordinated by experienced staff and volunteers who ensure that clients receive high quality support.

If anyone has a bit of time and is interested in information about volunteering to drive clients to

the program, they can contact Community Care (705-324-7323) and find out how they can enhance so many lives.

Future health programs discussed

BOBCAYGEON - A workshop to help residents screen themselves or others for possible signs of Alzheimer’s or Dementia was just one idea that emerged at Kawartha North Family Health Team’s (KNFHTs) focus group in the town Feb. 12.

Another question was whether the hamlet’s two nights a week walk-in clinic would be expanded to five and talk of the possible formation of a walking group.

The team also held a focus group in Fenelon Falls Feb. 13 and has finished receiving questionnaires and surveys. Consultant Liza Hancock will present the findings to the team for future decision-making.

Another idea that emerged from the forum was having volunteer drivers drive patients’ own cars to medical appointments rather than volunteer cars and drivers.

One participant wanted to know the plan to recruit doctors to the KNFHT, saying Bobcaygeon is underserviced. “What’s wrong with us?” he asked. * See “Off the Top” p. 3

Former MPP declares candidacy

LINDSAY - Former NDP MPP Don Abel became the Haliburton-Kawartha Lakes-Brock provincial riding candidate Feb. 16.

Abel is a longtime political activist and retired licensing officer for the City of Kawartha Lakes. He represented the former riding of Wentworth North from 1990 to 1995 and served as government whip and government caucus personnel committee chairperson.

After being approached by the party about possibly running, Abel said he never gave it a second thought.

“The NDP is a viable alternative to the questionable governance of the Liberals and Conservatives. Since 1980, provincial NDP governments have run balanced budgets for exactly 50% of their years in government compared to the Conservatives with 37% and the Liberals balancing their budgets only 27% of their time in government.

So obviously the NDP are definitely not the poor fiscal managers that some would claim. In fact they have actually proven to be quite proficient.”
