The forgotten war

By Brett Mann

Tweed – The Korean war from 1950 to 1953 has been called “the forgotten war.â€? It is a war that Ron Leger will not forget. The Tweed resident served in the infantry with the Queen’s Own Ries Regiment in Korea in 1953. His most serious combat encounter was a brief skirmish at night with approaching North Korean soldiers but what he recalls most vividly is the poverty and suffering he witnessed. The war was winding down but still dangerous. “One night we were guarding the 38th parallel. We were guarding the road so nobody would come in. The war was still going on a little bit, not much. We saw them coming down the road – I spotted them – we ďŹ red a couple of shots. We ran down and got the corporal but by that time they were gone ... we were called the ‘suicide company, B companyâ€? he remembers. “There were 100 men in a company. If the enemy attacked us we were to hold them off until the rest of the guys got across the bridge.â€? He recalls random pieces of military lore, remembering that more experienced soldiers sometimes tried to avoid being assigned an automatic Bren gun which made them priority targets for the enemy. Leger was born in Moncton New Brunswick in 1931 and joined the infantry in 1952. Basic training was at Ipperwash Ontario. Near the end of a year in Korea he had to be shipped to a hospital in Japan for treatment of severe Ron Leger displays a 1952 photo of The Queen’s Own Rifles of Canada at their training camp in Ipperwash. The local resident did a tour of duty in 1953 in Korea with The Queen’s stomach ulcers. He relates that when he was about to be re- Own Rifles until he was hospitalized in Japan. On returning to Canada he launched a successful decades-long career as a professional musician. Leger still contributes to the Tweed Please see “Koreanâ€? on page 3 music scene.

Hastings Cenotaph will be ready for Nov. 11 By Bill Freeman Hastings – Work around the Hastings Cenotaph will be mostly completed by this year’s Remembrance Day ceremony on Nov. 11. The Cenotaph itself was not in danger but the area around it “had settled and was in need of repair,” says Hastings Legion Branch 106 President Bob Crate who’s also the DeputyMayor of Trent Hills. “The main part of the work will be completed for Nov 11. There may be some small areas that are done after,” Crate said. “They’ve (Davidson Ex-

cavating) has done a great job without disturbing the Cenotaph.” Along with the drainage work and excavation, there will be additional landscaping, a new walkway and two benches installed. The $50,000 project is funded by a $25,000 grant from Veterans Affairs Canada with the municipality meeting the balance. Crate says all memorials in Trent Hills are the property of the municipality and projects like the one in Hastings can apply for funding through the municipality which sets aside money in its budget for situations

like this. Crate anticipates a large crowd at the Cenotaph for the Remembrance Ceremonies particularly as it marks the seventieth anniversary of the end of World War II, the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Battle of Britain and the one-hundredth anniversary of Major John McCrae’s iconic poem of In Flanders Field. It was also one year ago that Corporal Nathan Cirillo was gunned down while standing guard at the National War Memorial and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent was killed while on duty in Saint-Jeansur-Richelieu, Quebec. Members of the CFB Trenton’s 8 Wing will be at the ceremony continuing a tradition that adds immediacy to the local Remembrance event. Crate says he’s always happy to see serving troops involved

students joining us for the service. I think seeing it in person will stay with them for years to come,” Crate said. “Their participation is one reason Nov. 11 not being a national holiday works for us as they attend as a group.” “The school’s participation is very much appreciated and our youth education program with the poems and posters as well as public speaking lets the students know that the Legion is interested and wants to be involved with them.” The Branch’s place in the community remains strong and relevant, says Crate, and a Remembrance ceremony that brings different generations together keeps that connection alive. “I think the Legion is important to the vitality of the village and hope we can contin- Work around the Hastings Cenotaph will be mostue this conversation for years ly completed by this year’s Nov. 11 Remembrance to come.” Day ceremony.

in the Hastings ceremony. Officials from 8 Wing have already met with Branch 106 Sergeant-at-Arms Bob Beattie to discuss the Nov. 11 program. “Their participation does make our services very special and I know they add another element to the day,” says Crate. Because the ceremony will take place midweek, Crate says they’re also expecting students from Hastings Public School to be out in force. The school and Branch 106 have a strong partnership through youth education activities like the poster and writing competitions which draw inspiration from Remembrance events as well as public speaking. The Branch welcomes help from youth volunteers at special functions and also hosts a Christmas festival. “We look forward to the

Stirling man in court in body case Brockville – A 30-year-old former Stirling man was to appear in provincial court here for a bail hearing Monday on serious charges related to the discovery of a man’s body in a creek. Matthew Vincent Benoit, currently of Ottawa, has been charged with committing an indignity to a human body and conspiracy to commit an indictable offense. The body of 27-year-old Deepak Beaudoin-Reichmann was discovered in a bag in Kemptville Creek, Oct. 14. He had been reported missing Oct. 5 by his family. Authorities believe the man died of a drug overdose. Benoit, a graduate of St. Theresa Secondary School, and two other men have been charged in the case and will be before a judge today for a bail hearing. Police said Benoit was living in Ottawa and had recently quit his job at a tattoo parlour.

Misconceptions About Flu Shots Part 2

Myth: The flu shot can give you the flu. The flu shot cannot cause the flu. Flu shots are made with influenza viruses that have been inactivated and therefore cannot cause cause infection. The most common side effects from the flu shot are swelling, redness, and soreness where the injection was given. This usually lasts less than two days. Vaccination may also cause low-grade fever, muscle aches, and headache. If these occur, they typically last for one to two days. So why does it seem like some people get the flu right after having the flu shot? There are several reasons that this may happen. s 3OME PEOPLE CAN BECOME ILL FROM OTHER RESPIRATORY VIRUSES that have flu-like symptoms such as rhinovirus. These viruses also spread and cause illness during our flu season. The flu shot protects against the flu virus only. s 4HE m U SHOT WORKS BY CAUSING YOUR BODY TO DEVELOP antibodies that protect you against infection. These antibodies take about two weeks to be fully developed so the flu shot will take two weeks to be effective. Someone could have been exposed to the influenza virus before being vaccinated. During the two week period after vaccination the person becomes ill with flu before protection from the vaccine can take effect. s 4HE m U VIRUS IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING SO EVERY YEAR SCI entists have to predict what flu virus will be circulating during the next flu season. If the vaccine made is not a good “match” to the flu virus of the season then the flu vaccine won’t be as protective against the flu. Also, the flu vaccine contains protection against only three or four strains of flu virus. There are many flu viruses that can spread and cause a flu-illness. Someone could be exposed to a flu virus that is very different from the viruses the vaccine is designed to protect against. s &INALLY IN SOMEONE WITH A WEAKENED IMMUNE SYSTEM the flu vaccine may not provide complete protection.

Korean War

Continued from page 1 stationed in Korea he had a chance to apply for a position as a film projectionist at his transit camp in Japan and took it, remaining there for about three and a half years and returning to Canada a corporal. In Canada he ended up leaving the service when he found himself again in what amounted to basic training. “We had to learn how to do everything all over again like how to salute and all that bs.” Again he was hospitalized by an ulcer attack. In a training exercise before deployment to Korea Leger had been in a company of men deliberately exposed to a type of noxious gas in a closed room. He attributes his current medical condition of COPD at least partially to the experience. It was time for a career change. “I’ve always been a musician,” says Leger who is well known around Tweed for his guitar mastery and love of music. On leaving the army he went professional, playing with a group called the Gamblers and worked steadily for “four or five years” with Walter Ostanek, known as “Canada’s Polka King.” “I got fed up with waltzes and polkas,” Leger smiles. Continuing a musical career, “I was on the Dick Clark Show. Traveled all through the States. That was in the late 50’s. I played in Chicago, all over the States.” He adds that he also worked in a gold mine in Balmerton Ontario for twelve years. Leger lives with his wife Loretta, daughter Angel, four horses, a donkey and a “vicious chihuahua” on a riverfront rural property south of Tweed. He is father to three other children, Andrew, D’Arcy and Lee Anna. He is “very happy” with the government support he has received as a veteran. Ron Leger is less happy about the current state of geo-political affairs. “As far as what’s going on today, it doesn’t look good.”

Cooper Women’s Institute, 87 years young Margriet Kitchen Cooper - The Federated Women’s Institutes of Ontario (FWIO) was organized in 1919. The ROSE (Rural Ontario Sharing Education) Program, encourages Branches to increase awareness and expand the skill sets of both WI Members and people in their communities. The Cooper Women’s Institute celebrated their 87th anniversary recently with 19 ladies in attendance, including guests from the Springbrook-Wellman’s group. President Shirley McCoy welcomed everyone. “You all look lovely today. Of course the ladies of 1928 would wear dress and hat, and were just starting to show ankles! Only one member today (Ruth Holmes) remembers attending the first meeting. She was eight years old then – do the math!” Shirley then read a poem ‘Join the Club’ - a fun piece which bemoaned all the many changes that happen as one ages. Ruth Holmes then gave a history. “When Cooper’s W.I. was organized in April of 1928, we had the help of a District President, and two ladies from Madoc. There were twenty-eight members that first year. In 1930, there were 55 members present, and the annual fee was twenty-five cents. At that August meeting, there were 100 present, and there was a contest for the best decorated hat. In those days, winter meetings were attended by the men hitching the horses up to the ‘long sleigh’, with

planks for the ladies to sit on. As the men would normally be going out on the lake to cut ice and bring it home, I overheard one of them say, “I can’t come with you fellas today, because there’s a ‘hen party’ and I have to pick the ladies up.” I do have to say we certainly don’t have 55 members today. People don’t have the time because they are working, and it is so expensive to keep these places going any more (Cooper Hall). We have a total of 8 members now, and we’ll do the best we can to keep going.” District President, Judy Kopecz commented, “We have a good group at Springbrook-Wellmans W.I., it is hard to keep younger members coming in. We have the advantage of being closer to a larger population area of Belleville and Trenton, and are working to attract the younger retirees to our chapter, with events such as our recent ‘Home Canning Session’. The afternoon tea was served by guest speaker, Kerri Martin and her assistant, Sarah Pomerleau of Trenton, and offered a great many varieties of specialty steeped teas for the ladies to sample. Kerri described how it is through the cut of the leaves, as well as the method of curing that the different tastes are derived. Ladies attending the Oct. 4 gathering were judged for their ‘most beautiful hat’ and the ‘oldest hat’. Winners of most beautiful were; first place, Jenn Pollock, wearing a white straw with light blue ribbon and netting , and runner up, Trudy

Special guest speaker Kerri Martin of Trenton presented the ladies of Cooper W.I. with an informative afternoon of tea history and tasting at the 87th Anniversary tea.

St. Croix with a lovely white straw, and a floral band of yellow blue and white, created by her daughter, Cheyenne Leflaur of Kingston. Oldest hat was a very difficult decision, with the final outcome, Shirley McCoy, (55 years), Ruth Holmes, (49 years), and Erlene deClair, whose mother made a confederation style bonnet for the 1967 Canadian Centennial, (48 years). The afternoon wrapped up with a lovely luncheon of sandwiches, homemade pickles (have to get that dill recipe!), cheeses, and lovely cake. Oh yes, it was also a surprise birthday celebration for Chapter President, Shirley McCoy. These ladies certainly do know how to party, and to organize events and fundraisers.

Schools combine efforts in collecting 2,000-plus donations for food bank By John Campbell Campbellford – It wasn’t your typical food chain but it made for a remarkable sight: hundreds of school children standing in a line at least 300 metres long, passing along jars, bags, boxes and cans of food from one school to another. The chain of students and staff that formed Monday morning started in the gym at St. Mary Catholic Elementary School and ended across the street in the gym at Hillcrest Public School, where all the food the two schools had collected over the past few weeks were brought together to be sorted. It was Hillcrest teacher Patrick Muldoon’s idea to challenge St. Mary to match what his school had done last year and planned to repeat this year: donate 1,000 food items to the local food bank. He thought “it would be nice to do something together philanthropically between the two schools, since we’re so close and we’re all the in the same community.�

It wasn’t a competition, he stressed, but more a goal they both needed to reach, which they did with no problem, Hillcrest managing to attain the 1,200 mark for items brought in. It has about 300 students, St. Mary close to 240. “We met the challenge and we’re happy about that,� St. Mary Principal Virginia Marini said. The school, which normally holds a food drive in February, got a big boost when it held a dance-a-thon. Students who brought a food item could dress up in a Halloween costume. “That was a big hit, they loved that,� Marini said, adding the school received a lot of support from the children and their families. The same held true at Hillcrest. Muldoon said he’s “always amazed� the support the school is given by the students and their parents. As a reward for their hard work, the students at the two schools were to get together Thursday for 100 minutes of

play at Hillcrest. “We’re the school that cares and this is just one way we can demonstrate that our students and our staff care for our community,� Hillcrest Principal Connie Hodson said. “We also have many students who use the food bank, students and families, so it’s really important that we see it as a two-way street; we support the food bank, the food bank supports us.� Marini said the challenge was the first “concrete thing� the two schools have done together. “It’s turned out so well,� she said. “The kids just jumped on it, they were very happy to help.� The school’s Me to We group took a leadership role in meeting the challenge. “It’s a great thing for the community, and that’s exactly what we should be doing,� Marini added. The Youth Advisory Council at Campbellford District High School got involved as well, continuing a recent tradition of members going door-to-door

in town Halloween night, collecting donations of food over the course of three-and-a half hours. “Everybody we went to, they always gave more than one food item, it was really, really good,� said Meaghan Steinmann, one of about 16 YAC members who took part in the effort. “I was very encouraged by the fact that our whole community can pull together, kids from the separate school, kids from the public school, kids from the high school, all working together ... for a great cause,� Muldoon said. St. Mary Catholic Elementary School’s 240 students met the challenge of collecting 1,000 nonperishable food items that Hillcrest Public School has issued. In a long line that stretched between the two schools, students transferred food from St. Mary to Hillcrest Monday morning. Photo by John Campbell

Corporation of the Municipality of Centre Hastings NOTICE OF THE PASSING OF A ZONING BY-LAW

By Diane Sherman Madoc - Over the past two months, municipal news has taken a back seat to the federal election and community events, though there are a few things residents should be aware of. The McCumber Road extension has been completed running from Kerby Road through to join Fuller Road, meeting at Slab Street. With the opening of the formerly unassumed portion, McCumber now meets up with the road on the other side of the former trail, where it is named Scholz Road. Council sent out letters to residents on both sections of the road stating they would be assessing “many things� while considering what name the road should now have. A public meeting was held

Oct.14 where members of the Malloy family proposed the name be changed to Malloy, based on the long-time habitation by their family. Mayor Tom Deline said any proposed change has to go through the county planner, who indicated there was another road by the same name within Hastings, which may cause problems with 911 calls. The process is still underway. A bylaw was passed Oct. 28 governing the use of shipping containers, a container free of chassis or wheels once used to to transport goods by rail, truck or sea. The containers may now be used for storage purposes in rural, agricultural. commercial and industrial zones providing certain provisions are met. They cannot be used for human habitation or as animal shelters, or to store waste, ex-

OPINION

Turkey: Next Stop Civil War? Queen’s Park needs to hear

Editorial - You may deceive all the people part of the time, and part of the people all the time...”, begins Abraham Lincoln’s famous aphorism about democracy – but in a multi-party democratic system, that is usually enough. In a parliamentary system like Turkey’s, 49 percent of the popular gives you a comGwynne Dyer vote fortable majority of seats, and so Recep Tayyib Erdogan will rule Turkey for another four years. If it lasts that long. There will still be a Turkey of some sort in four years’ time, of course, but it may no longer be a democracy, and it may not even have its present borders. In last Sunday’s vote Erdogan won back the majority he lost in the June election, but the tactics he employed have totally alienated an important section of the population. Kurds make up a fifth of Turkey’s 78 million people. Most Kurds are pious, socially conservative Sunni Muslims, so they usually voted for Erdogan’s Justice and Development (AK) Party – which consequently won three successive elections (2003, 2007, 2011) with increasing majorities. Then the Kurds stopped voting for Erdogan, which is why he lost last June’s election. In this month’s election he managed to replace those lost votes with nationalist voters who are frightened of a Kurdish secession and simple souls who just want stability and peace – but he had to start a war to win them over. Erdogan threw Turkey’s support firmly behind the rebels when the Syrian civil war broke out in 2011, mainly because as a devout Sunni Muslim he detested Bashar al-Assad’s Alawite-dominated regime. He kept Turkey’s border with Syria open to facilitate the flow of volunteers, weapons and money to the Islamist groups fighting Assad, including the Nusra Front and ISIS (which eventually became Islamic State). He even backed Islamic State when it attacked the territory that had been liberated by the Kurds of northern Syria. That territory extends along the whole eastern half of Turkey’s border with Syria, and in the end, despite Erdogan’s best efforts, the Syrian Kurds managed to repel ISIS’s attacks. But this was the issue that cost Erdogan the support of Turkish Kurds. His solution was to restart the war against the PKK, the armed separatist movement that is based in the Kurdish-speaking northern provinces of Iraq. A ceasefire had stopped the fighting between the Turkish government and the PKK for the past four years, but Erdogan now needed a patriotic war

against wicked Kurdish separatists in order to lure the nationalists and the naive into backing his party. He duped the United States into supporting this war by allowing US bombers to use Turkish airbases and promising that Turkish planes would start bombing Islamic State too. (In fact, Turkey has dropped only a few token bombs on IS; the vast majority of its bombs are falling on Kurds.) The pay-off came on Sunday, when the votes of Turks who fear Kurdish separatism replaced the Kurdish votes that the AK Party lost last June. The problem is that the election is now over but the war will continue. Indeed it will get worse. The Turkish army is already shelling the Syrian Kurds, and warning that it may invade if the Syrian Kurdish proto-state (known as Rojava) tries to push further west and shut down the last border-crossing point that links Turkey to Islamic State. At home, the independent institutions of a normal democratic state have been subverted one after another: the media, the police, and the judiciary now generally serve Erdogan. State television, for example, gave 59 hours of coverage to Erdogan’s campaign in the past month. All the other parties combined got 6 hours and 28 minutes. So Erdogan’s AK won the election, but Turkey is no longer a real democracy. And since the half of the population that didn’t vote for Erdogan utterly loathes him, it won’t be a very stable authoritarian state either. In fact, it is probably teetering on the brink of civil war. The people who loathe Erdogan because he is destroying Turkey’s free media, perverting its criminal justice system and robbing the state blind – he and his AK colleagues have been enthusiastically feathering their nests – will not turn to violence. The poor will not turn to violence either, even though the economic boom is over and jobs are disappearing. But some of the Turkish Kurds will fight, and they will have the support of the Syrian Kurds just across the border. That will probably draw the Turkish army into invading northern Syria to crush the Kurds there – and once Turkey is fully involved in the Syrian civil war, all of southeastern Turkey (where Kurds are the majority) also becomes part of the combat zone. When Mustafa Kemal Ataturk rescued a Turkish republic from the wreckage of the Ottoman empire after the First World War, he was determined to make it a European state. It was a fairly oppressive state at first, but over the decades it gradually turned into a democracy that operated under the rule of law. That’s over now. It took Erdogan a dozen years in power to demolish that European-style democracy, but the job is done. As one despairing Turk put it recently, Turkey is becoming a Middle Eastern country.

our health care howls By Chris Malette

Editorial – If there’s one thing we probably, on any given day, don’t need it’s more blather from politicians. But, in the case of advocating for our local health care needs, our hospitals, clinics and health care practitioners, there’s no time like the present to open up dialogue to full throttle. At the invitation of Hastings County officials, area mayors and administrators of Quinte Health Care and the South East Local Integration Network (LHIN) met last week for a special meeting at Hastings County headquarters in Belleville. It was largely an education session, with all sides stating their views and doing their share of listening. Present were the mayors of Belleville, Quinte West, Prince Edward County, Bancroft and Brighton. Joining them at the county’s invitation was John Smylie, chairman of Our Trenton Memorial Hospital. On the sidelines, but listening, as well, were the mayors of Hastings Highlands, Carlow/ Mayo and Tweed. As would be expected, politicians attacked Ontario’s funding formula for hospitals. They complained of municipalities facing rising costs from provincial downloading and uncertainty about what hospital cuts will mean for both the quality of care and municipal budgets. “This funding formula is broken,” said Prince Edward County Mayor Robert Quaiff. “Not knowing where we’re going is going to be a problem,” Belleville Mayor Taso Christopher added. The mayors agreed on the need for a united front against the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. “We should be collectively working together for better service and speak as one voice. It gives you more credibility when you work with the province,” Quaiff said. The County’s Quaiff said QHC “is not our enemy” and municipal leaders should work with the corporation and help to create “better funding formulas and better understanding from the province. Quaiff said he “could care less if I have 10 beds” at the Picton hospital so long as residents receive proper care. Bancroft Mayor Bernice Jenkins said North Hastings Hospital is “basically … an outpost hospital” in a reference to the hospital’s origi-

nal purpose as a Red Cross Outpost Hospital in 1927. “Our residents are an hour-and-a-half, two hours from a large hospital,” Jenkins said. She said residents would love “all the bells and whistles” of health care but “we must keep what we have.” But while Quinte Health Care president and chief executive officer Mary Clare Egberts said she doubted even a group challenge of the formula “would get anywhere” with the the health ministry, that doesn’t mean the dialogue and strategizing has to stop. QHC must cut $11.5 million in the next fiscal year. Egberts said the only program QHC proposes cutting is its pain clinic. She said senior staff want to create a regional program in partnership with other organizations. “It is a service that doesn’t need to be in a hospital,” she said, and more specialized staff elsewhere can provide better care. She may be right on that count, but our municipalities can’t take for granted the hospital planners in our midst are always going to be on point without close collaboration with the people they serve. At last week’s meeting, Hastings County chief administrative officer Jim Pine asked if fundraising drives should redirect donations for hospital capital projects to transportation. Egberts replied the parties should discuss it further. Quinte West Mayor Jim Harrison said there’s a limit to how municipalities can help and the province must realize it. “I’m being expected to put more dollars toward what they’re downloading onto me,” he said. Our TMH’s Smylie, meanwhile, said he was encouraged by the way in which all sides discussed local health care. But, he said Our TMH and the Ontario Health Coalition are still expecting more than 1,000 people at their Nov. 13 rally at the Trenton hospital to protest hospital cuts. Hastings County Warden Rick Phillips said he remains upset at the area’s no-growth status. He said he understands Ontario’s position but receiving less health funding hurts doctor recruitment and economic development. “All of our residents still need quality health care,” he said. It’s one thing to bark in isolation at the short end of the stick our region seems to be getting on hospital and health care funding, it’s yet another to hear a full-throated howl of protest and until we start to see changes here, that should be happening with a unified voice.

Jenny Mountain, Corrinna Vesterfelt, Shaun and Gordon Vesterfelt with Cathy and Brian Vesterfelt expanded on animated displays from their first attempt last year. The place was a hot bed of eerie characters, most sculpted by Mountain. The men hooked up a number of devices to activate a fogging machine and propel the ghost and animate a skeleton. The scene was something to behold. Little goblins were out early this year followed by another wave of revellers after dark.

A new twist on Halloween – Trunk or Treat keeps growing

By Brett Mann

Tweed – Trunk or Treat, a Halloween event begun locally three years ago, continues to attract a growing number of kids, parents and treat providers. At Tweed Memorial Park on a mild and calm Halloween evening, throngs of trick-or-treaters explored the goodies and scary costumes offered along a line of car trunks and pickup tailgates. Organizer Jim Keniston was in an especially upbeat mood, given this was the first rainfree staging of the event. Keniston puts together Trunk or Treat with the help of his family and friends. “There might be seven or eight of us,� he Brandon and Riley Cassibo find that daughter Kenna is more taken with reports. Volunteers prepared hot chocothe doggy (Kulta) than with treats. A dozen “trunkers� offered treats and late and grilled hot dogs for visitors and thrills to youngsters at this year’s Trunk or Treat in Memorial Park. Photo Duffer’s Chip Wagon offered burgers by Brett Mann and fries to the crowd. The community at large is also generous in supporting Trunk or Treat. “I’ve got sponsorship from everybody – from Tweed Music Festivals, the municipality – probably 15 or so local merchants and probably another 10 or 15 individuals.� New supporters are coming on board each year says Keniston and “they’re donating more than they have in the Dr. Paul Giuliani D.D.S. past, which is great. Each year it’s getting bigger but I’m still maintaining a bit When you smile with confidence, you look your best of a surplus that we’re going to be able and feel good about yourself.

If your teeth are out of to a local group, Keep Our Kids Warm, which provides warm winter clothing for position, they are more difficult to clean, increasing children. the risk of tooth decay and periodontal (gum) disease. The immediate appeal of Trunk or Treat If your bite is off place, extra strain may be placed is that it provides “one-stop-shopping� on the chewing muscles, possibly causing pain and for kids in a single safe location. Many problems with your jaw joint. youngsters attending come from rural areas where going door-to-door is difficult Orthodontic treatment can be beneficial at any or impractical says Keniston. He stresses age and approximately 25% of today’s orthodontic patients are adults. Teeth can be moved at any age and therefore more adults are proceeding with orthodontic treatment today in an effort to achieve straight teeth, a beautiful smile and healthy jaw joints.

that Trunk or Treat is not meant to compete with or replace traditional trick-or-treating. The people who bring their spookily-decorated vehicles laden with candy and treats are called “trunkers� he says. “Tonight we have 12. We have had more in the past, even in the rain.� He concedes that the cold and rain in previous years may have affected the number of participants this year. “It’s hard on folks.� A canopy along the line of vehicles offers protection from precipitation. Trunkers call ahead and register

By Judy McLean Campbellford - Once again it’s one-stop shopping at Campbellford Memorial Hospital Auxiliary’s Christmas Cafe and Bazaar, which will be held at St. John’s United Church on Bridge Street Saturday, Nov. 14, between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. The gift shop table will be filled with unique, hand-made gifts, and there will be Bartlett Bears available as well as ladies’ apparel and jewelry. You could also purchase a stunning Christmas decoration in the silent auction or buy a raffle tick-

et on a lottery ticket tree. Draws will be held at 2:30 p.m. The auxiliary’s new toy store features gifts for children up to six years old. There’s also a white elephant sale, and downstairs a bake table loaded with pies, cakes and cookies. You can relax before heading home by enjoying a hot cup of tea and a light luncheon for only $6 at the auxiliary cafe. And once you get home, throw some flour on your face, put up your feet and tell the family how many hours you spent on Christmas chores, in the kitchen and at the stores. This year Bev Vye, a long-

time member of the Teddy Bear Club, will be hosting a Teddy Bear Clinic. Children’s favourite friends, showing their aches and pains (wear and tear), will receive loving care. Vye not only can create wonderful teddy bears from scratch, she can tuck and sew well-loved ones back into shape. Remember, when you support the hospital fundraiser, it enables CMH to purchase up-todate equipment that benefits the whole community. As they say, â€œIt’s not the things you do on Christmas Day, it’s the little things you do all year through.â€?Â

Keniston observed that a number of the trunkers come back each year. “They’re doing it ‘cause it’s fun. That’s the whole point of this. I want to give a venue for folks who might not otherwise be able to take the little ones door-todoor, the rural kids ‌ thank you to everyone who helps because this can’t happen without a lot of labour and love for Halloween.â€?

with Keniston who remarks, “ I welcome everybody. All I ask is that they decorate their cars and bring their own treats and goodies. When they run out as they inevitably do, I have a surplus supply and am able to re-stock them.� The trunkers’ costumes and decorations reflect a good deal of creativity and preparation. “We have the vine-lights and everything from Jack O’ Lanterns to straw, cornstalks ... and then of course our trunkers are all in costume as well. We’ve got witches, we’ve got Bumble Bee and acci-

Stirling-Rawdon signs new agreement for paramedic services By Terry McNamee Stirling- A bylaw passed by StirlingRawdon Council on Monday, Nov. 2, has authorized an Emergency Response Agreement between the Township and the County of Hastings. Under the new agreement, emergency medical response services in StirlingRawdon will participate in the Emergency Response Program for Hastings County, operating as Hastings-Quinte Paramedic Services. Clerk/Administrator Charles Croll said the two have had similar agreements before, but the new one will be for four years instead of just one or two. The agreement is to be reviewed annually. Mayor Rodney Cooney said it basically means the two municipalities will work together when providing emergency medical services. Under the agreement, whichever service can respond the fastest will take the call when there is a life-threatening emergency. Such an emergency is declared when a person is found unconscious, not breathing, with an airway obstruction or with vital signs absent. It also requires that all personnel responding to these calls have received designated training in CPR and the use of external defibrillators. In other news, Council decided to put off work planned for Emma Street until 2016. “It is going to happen, but not un-

til next year,” said Finance Committee chairman Coun. Jeremy Solmes. Coun. Solmes said the Township also is holding a Christmas Decorating Contest again this year. Prizes will be $150, $100 and $50 in “Stirling-Rawdon Bucks”. In approving the Finance Committee minutes, Council agreed to provide some Township promotional materials as well as a $100 donation to the Stirling Figure Skating Club to help offset expenses for an Interclub competition the club is host-

ing on Jan. 16-17. Coun. Dean Graff noted that the number of building permits has increased in Stirling-Rawdon for 2015. This means increased revenue for the Township. Permits were issued for a wide variety of projects from building repairs to new roofs to putting up a new barn. “It’s been an excellent year for all five municipalities,” said treasurer Roxanne Hearns, referring to the townships of StirlingRawdon, Tweed, Deseronto, Tyendinaga and Madoc.

A retirement community so different, you’ll want to vacation here.

Mayor Rodney Cooney (right) and Deputy Mayor Bob Mullin listen as Clerk/ Administrator Charles Croll talked briefly about the Township’s emergency medical response agreement with Hastings County, operating as HastingsQuinte Paramedic Services.s, during the Nov. 2 meeting of Council.

Sponsors help 7 Hills Community Pantry host benefit concert in Warkworth By Sue Dickens Warkworth – The music of Churchville Park is being featured at a benefit concert that members of 7 Hills Community Pantry hope will fill the shelves with much-needed food. “It’s going to be our major fundraiser for the year,” said Gail Covert, chair of the food bank. She is getting support from Bev Scott of Campellford, whose son George is a member of the acoustic group that will be performing old-time country, folk and bluegrass classics. Support for the concert is also coming from a slew of generous sponsors who are covering the cost of the performance. Proceeds from ticket sales will go to the food bank and guests attending are also being asked to bring a food item. Among the dozen local businesses and individuals who have stepped up to sponsor the concert is Bev’s husband George Scott Sr. “My husband has worked for

23 years at the Warkworth Golf Course and he got to know a lot of people in that time and people here have been really good to him,” noted Scott. “My son, George, likes doing this kind of thing. He does a lot of this with his band as well as singing on his own in nursing homes and senior homes at no charge,” she added. Churchville Park is based in Tottenham where the Scott family lives and band members include Sherry O’Connor, Mary Bennet and Jason Laprade. The band, known for their three-part harmonies, shares with audiences a love of roots music combined with a genuine appreciation of how music connects everyone. It is this connection the organizers hope will result in a successful fundraiser. For Covert, the concert is an opportunity to fill the pantry shelves just in time for the winter season when more people than normal need help. The numbers do go

down in the summer months when people are able to find seasonal work but in the winter months, “Well it’s starting back up again now.” Cover noted, “Our stats show that one-third of the people that come here are working.” There is also an age group that has seen a jump in numbers. “I really think and this is just my own observation, it’s older people in their 50s and up who are coming for the first time. We have had one new family every month for the past 18 months.” In a typical month, hampers are provided to an average of 27 households, feeding 44 adults and 24 children. “The essential items and extras given throughout the month triples the number of individuals assisted,” Covert said. “Our clients include two-parent families, single-parent families, couples with no children, single parents and the elderly,” said Covert. “We have people come here who have no income. We

have some people who are selfemployed,” she added. The food bank is run completely by volunteers. “In a typical month, a total of 18 volunteers will put in about 120 hours,” she said. In the winter months when snowbirds go south the need for volunteers increases. The benefit concert is taking place Saturday, Nov. 14 at 7 p.m. at the Warkworth Town Hall. Tickets will be available at the door. Admission is $10 plus food bank items. Those wanting to reserve tickets can call Scott at 705-947-2185. Cheques or cash donations can be made at: <www.CanadaHelps. org> or mailed to 7 Hills Community Pantry, P.O. Box 415, 60 Main St., Warkworth, ON, K0K 3K0.

School council awed by fundraising support By Bill Freeman

Havelock – Dancing has paid off in a big way at Havelock Belmont Public School.

school needs and what students need. All of the money the school council raises actually goes back to the students in some way.” The funds are used for things like school trips, play equipment, sports uniforms, musical instruments, guest speakers and lice checks. “Anything that needs help with funding throughout the year,” says Davis. And while they considered the dance-a-thon a “pilot”, its success has organizers thinking of perhaps doing another one next year. “This is probably the most successful one (fundraiser) we’ve done before,” said Davis. “It’s something the kids can enjoy and the take part in. It goes along with the healthy schools

initiative and getting kids active. It’s great for everybody to come together and the community as well. “It’s Halloween too, so kids get to dress up and show off their costumes. We had lots of parent volunteers,” she added. The top class raised $1,373 and will receive a lunch party while the top student will receive a limo trip into Peterborough courtesy of Welsh Limousine Services and lunch with HBPS Principal Darryl Whitney. “This is all thanks to the school community, the students and the community of Havelock,” says Davis. “That total does speak to the support the school receives throughout the community.”

Madoc sculptor reveals another provocative creation By Diane Sherman Madoc - The quiet rural setting surrounding the Village of Madoc is well known for a high concentration of creative artists. James C. Smith is one of those silent gems. On October 27, Smith attended the unveiling of his most recent sculpture at the Rutherford Marketplace in the City of Vaughan, with Mayor Maurizio Bevilacqua presiding over the first art installation in the city. Smith’s design was chosen from a Canada-wide competition by First Capital Realty. After retiring from Campbell Monuments of Belleville, Smith

and his wife Susan, a retired librarian, have focused on his artwork. From his studio near Madoc, Smith has quietly designed public art pieces and “monumental sculptures” for which he has gained recognition and awards across Canada. He created the Surveyor’s Memorial at the bottom of Sydney Street in Belleville marking the first survey taken in the territory, and recently installed a work called Applause, a series of whitegloved hands clapping, for the Bert Church Theatre in Airdrie, Alberta,. An elegant piece at Eastern Health in St. John’s, Newfound-

land, featuring three life-sized women sitting on black granite titled “Graces”, commemorates women lost to breast cancer. The Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial in Quinte West is Smith’s work. The piece in Vaughan is titled “Treed”. Twenty-one stainless steel shopping bags hang from three 5.5 metre steel trees. “The wind rotates the bags.” he explained.”It shows the dynamic/ symbiotic relationship between consumerism and the demands on our environment.” Smith worked with Bellevillle fabricators, under Bill Doef to create the kinetic piece from a mild steel for the leafless trees and

stainless for the bags. The whole piece is finished in a neopoxy coating. Smith says art is a good way to bring moral and aesthetic principles to the forefront. “It is a way to engender thought and discussion and of course art is always open to interpretation.” His studio and home reflect his natural talent for sculpture with works done in wood and old metal, and a multitude of granite and stone pieces. In Madoc, he works with Arts Centre Hastings to promote local arts and music. You can see more of his work on his website <www.jamescsmith. ca>.

Madoc sculptor James Smith was at Rutherford Marketplace in Vaughan, Oct. 27 for the official dedication of his dynamic sculpture,”Treed”, contrasting consumer culture with demands placed on the environment. Photo submitted.

Westben’s house concert to feature local band Northern Sounds By Sue Dickens Campbellford – A house concert hosted by Westben is providing an opportunity for the audience to hear some of the area’s talented musicians. The informal candlelit setting will set the stage for a young local band known as Northern Sounds. This group of musicians includes Morgan Wright-Mellone, 16, from Warkworth; Kaitlyn Rose, 21, of Stockdale; Christian Hodge, 17, of Morganston; and Michayla Marykuca, also 17, from Wooler. Christian Hodge, 17, of Morganston and Michayla Marykuca, also 17, from “Christian is an alumni of the WestWooler are two of the band members in Northern Sound, a group of local ben Chorus and is taking piano lessons musicians who will be performing at Westben’s house concert on Nov. 7. from Brian (Finley) doing his Royal Conservatory of Music Grade 10 Photo submitted

&

piano,” noted Donna Bennett, Westben co-founder. Christian’s father Paul Hodge is a recording engineer who works at CBC in Toronto. The family lives in Morganston. A description of the group provided by band member Christian noted that “Northern Sound

is an indie band that fuses folk, pop, and rock to introduce a truly happy sound.” Hailing from throughout Northumberland County, this young quartet draws influences from the current pop scene as well as early folk music. “Acoustic instruments blend

with electric and meld together with a wide array of percussion to create a unique experience. There’s also ukuleles and stuff.” The house concert will take place Nov. 7 from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Clock Tower Cultural Centre in Campbellford. This is a pay-what-you-can event.

Council marks the end of its first year, “a year of change� By Brett Mann Tweed – Mayor Jo-Anne Albert remarked at council’s October 27 meeting that “It’s been one year today that council was elected. I can’t believe how fast a year has gone.� She thanked council and staff for their support, observing “This has definitely been a year of change for us all.� An overarching change has been the recent election of a new federal government and council agreed to send a letter of congratulation to newly elected MP Mike Bossio and a letter expressing gratitude to defeated former MP Daryl Kramp. Mr. Bossio has asked to meet with council in the near

future to hear local views. Mayor Albert preceded the meeting with a presentation to student Austin Willoughan of a sign he designed reminding people to clean up after their pets. The colourful cartoon signs with the slogan “You can do it� were fabricated by Queensborough metal worker Jos Pronk and are now displayed on area trails and parks. Council heard from three delegations. Virginia McKeown of Actinolite sought and received council’s support for a petition to Canada Post requesting placement of a community mail box on the east side of Highway 37, eliminating the need for residents on the east side to

cross the busy highway to get their mail. Signatures on the petition represent about twentyfive families and seventy-three residents said McKeown. Theresa McCann, Tweed Elementary School Council Chair raised another road safety issue, saying “the areas in the immediate vicinity of the school do not provide safe passageway for many of our walking students.� She referred to narrow road-ways, lack of sidewalks and heavy traffic. Mayor Albert expressed frustration with village students being bused very short distances to school and suggested that many village students should walk to school in the interest of health promo-

tion. Public Works Manager Al Broek noted that at least one street may too narrow to install sidewalks. Council will refer the sidewalk question to the next budget meeting. Lisa Lesage and Bonnie Jussila reported to council on the activities and plans of Tweed Music Festivals Inc. Lesage noted that this year’s Elvis Festival attracted almost 2,000 visitors, 33 per cent attending for the first time. Tweed residents comprised 23 per cent of attendees. 42 per cent traveled over 100 kilometres to attend the festival and on the evaluations collected, 82 per cent rated the festival as a 4 or 5 out of 5. Most visitors were in the fifty plus age range. TMFI plans for the coming year include reviving Tweed’s winter carnival with features such as horse-drawn

cutter sleigh rides on Stoco Lake. Councillor Jim Flieler advised he will serve as council representative to TMFI. Council adopted a by-law to convey property to the municipality on Deshane Road for road-widening. A number of resolutions were carried: a final hold back payment of $9,985.79 (HST included) will be paid to Crain’s Construction for work on the Bogart Bridge; a half-page ad in County Roads Magazine winter edition will be purchased; revenue from Feast from Farms will be dedicated to the “North Pole in the Park� event in December. Four recommendations of the Personnel and Finance Committee were accepted. A lease agreement with Welch LLP will be renewed; a $817.20 per month quote from Rent-a-Geek

Recommendations from the Public Works and Protective Services Committee to purchase a thermal imaging camera for $9,950 and to approve six live stock loss claims were carried.

Me? I’m No Scaredy Cat. Really. Well, Maybe Just A Little. Meet Carly. She’s 16, and has always been afraid of going to see the dentist. What she doesn’t know is that Sleep Dentistry is now used for everything including invasive procedures (like the tooth extraction she needs) to a simple hygiene cleaning. It’s true. It’s safe, and it really works! How it's used depends on the severity of your anxiety and fear.

Warkworth – Needing roughly $30,000 to support a family of four refugees from the Middle East for a year, the Warkworth Community Refugee Initiative (WCRI) is “well over a third of the way there,â€? says one of its founding members, David Pollack. That’s in initial pledges, “and we haven’t started any deďŹ ned fundraising campaigns.â€? Those efforts are being

planned by one of three teams the community initiative has formed to facilitate the relocation of a refugee family or individual to Trent Hills in the coming months. The other two are looking after submitting an application to the federal government and preparing for the settlement of those who get chosen from a list of approved refugees from Syria and Iraq. Pollack said it’s ideal but Please see “Community� on page 19

dian Living. “The Toronto Sun did a story on us about 15 years ago,� Williamson said while sitting in her kitchen with a couple of colourful aprons on the table nearby and the pie contest poster. Camp Ho-Ba-Chee owners Robin Eecloo and her partner Lesley Blayney have joined in the excitement for the fundraising competition by hosting their own Perfect Pie Contest Apron Installation Project. It’s a fun art installation that they decided to organize with a Nov. 3 deadline for contributions of aprons. The perfect pie competition has always been a community event. Proceeds from this year’s auction of the winning perfect pies will go to the Auxiliary to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital. “We also donate some to other Chapter charities,� noted Williamson.

stage that is all covered in trophies just waiting to be won,� Williamson added with a grin. “Because we’re on the committee, we’re not allowed to enter so we made an Eastern Star trophy so we can all enter that category,� she said with a sparkle in her eye. She had been involved with the pie contest for decades. “We took it over from the Warkworth Improvement Committee. They started the contest,� she explained. Williamson was a member of the startup committee. “We invented the pie contest 36 years ago,� she said. The town hall is their place of choice for the venue. “It’s an historic building and so it’s perfect,� she noted.

Warkworth – The ďŹ rst law of pies is they must have a pastry. Sounds like common sense but for the 36th Annual Perfect Pie Contest, the pastry is all important, the place to start, the base, so all the entries have to be prepared with the same type of pastry. “No ingredients can be somebody else’s. They have to be your ingredients, your recipe,â€? said Marina Williamson, Worthy Matron, Order of the Eastern Star Chapter 279 Warkworth, which sponsors the fundraiser. “You can only use regular pie dough to start ... lard or butter and our and water ... everything from scratch,â€?

she explained. After that it’s whatever ďŹ lling the baker wants to use. The categories include apple only, ďŹ lled, fruit, maple syrup, meringue topped, pecan, pumpkin and savoury. There is also a category for children 12 years and under and for men and for seniors over 65 years of age. “We have pie-makers of all ages enter the contest,â€? said Williamson. Judges, whose names are kept conďŹ dential, also choose winners for the best pie made from local ingredients such as bison, cheese, beef or fruit. When it comes to judging the entries, it can be a tough tasting task because the tables can be ďŹ lled with as many as 130 pies. “And there’s a table on the

Author Mark Abley Coming to the Tweed Library Tweed - Award winning writer Mark Abley will be reading and leading a discussion at the Tweed Library on Thursday, Nov. 12. A poet and journalist, Abley is best known for his non-fiction, including two acclaimed books on language, Spoken Here: Travels Among Threatened Languages, and The Prodigal Tongue: Dispatches From the Future of English. Abley’s most recent book of non-fiction is Conversa-

tions With a Dead Man: The Legacy of Duncan Campbell Scott, in which he uses the unusual technique of a dialogue with the late Scott, the architect of the controversial residential school system for aboriginal children. The book, a work of creative nonfiction published in late 2013, received rave reviews. “A potentially gimmicky device turns turns out to be an ingenious choice, drawing the reader into a subject that

might otherwise have looked like impossibly heavy going,” wrote Ian McGillis in a Montreal Gazette review. Abley has also written four books of poetry and two children’s books. His latest is The Tongues of Earth, a volume of new and selected poems published this year. Born in England, Abley grew up in Alberta and Saskatchewan. He won a Rhodes Scholarship in 1975. He has been a contributing

editor to Maclean’s and Saturday Night magazines and a regular contributor to the Times Literary Supplement. Abley has lived in Montreal since 1983 and worked at the Montreal Gazette as a feature writer and books editor until 2003. He continues to write a column on language for the newspaper. He won a National Newspaper Award in 1996 for his feature writing and was short-listed for another in

1992 for international reporting. He was shortlisted for two non-fiction awards for Spoken Here, and won a LiberPress Prize for international authors after the book was translated into several languages. He has also won a Torgi Prize for children’s fiction and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2004 The Friends of the Tweed Library are hosting the event, which begins at 7 p.m. Autographed books will be available and refreshments will

Havelock – “To see the kid’s faces, that’s the best,” says Linda Chopping, one of the leading lights behind the volunteer Mitts for Kids team that donates their time and work to help children stay warm during the winter. Chopping was at the United Way of Peterborough and District’s Coats for Kids distribution at the HavelockBelmont-Methuen Community Centre presiding over a table laden with colorful mittens and toques which youngsters could pick up. “It pays off when you see the smiles in the kid’s faces and you see the parents,” says Chopping, who’s been part of the group for 25 years. Giving children a chance to pick their own colours is also important, she adds. “They do care what colours they have.” Mitts for Kids and the Kawartha Hooks and Needles are among the good Samaritans of winter providing items for Coats for Kids and Grown Ups Too days across the city and county as well as to schools and other organizations but Chopping says Volunteer knitter Linda Chopping of Mitts for Kids was at the United Way of there’s much more her group could do Peterborough and District’s Coats for Kids and Grown Ups Too distribution if they had the wool and the knitters to in Havelock giving out hand-made mitts.

knitters but Chopping says there are “probably three or four who do the majority of the knitting.” Two of those knitters have produced over 100 pairs of mitts, she says. “We really could use more knitters and wool. We just go by donated wool.” Chopping has collected 300 pairs of mitts from her team for Coats for Kids. Hundreds more, she says, will be donated directly to the United Way from other sources. After the various Coats for Kids distributions they’ll donate mitts and toques to local schools but Chopping doesn’t expect many to be left so she’s pleading for wool donations. “We could use some more for January.” Chopping got involved in the program shortly after moving to the Havelock area 25 years ago. “I could do something for the community if the wool was provided for me and then give back to people. What’s good for me is that I can do it when it fits into my schedule. It’s more rewarding now because I’m at the distribution and I see the kids. It’s important to be here.” Wool donations can be dropped off at Havelock Community Care just north of Tim Hortons or by calling Chopping at 705-778-7842. R0012774187

We Sell Gas Refrigerators

By Brett Mann Tweed - As Remembrance Day approaches, the gallery at the Tweed Heritage Centre is again a showcase of Canadian military memories thanks to Legion Branch 428 Vice-president Martin “Dutch� Vermeer. As a military policeman stationed with Canadian forces in post-war Europe Vermeer had a keen eye for military collectibles and has assembled an impressive display of artefacts from virtually all the conflicts Canada has been engaged in. The Heritage Centre has been exhibiting the collection for several years and each year Mr. Vermeer tries to add something new. In addition to material from the first and second World Wars, posters, military insignia, kit and uniforms from the Riel Rebellion and the Upper Canada Rebellions of 1837/1838 are on display. Evan Morton, curator at the Heritage Centre points out that Thomas Scott, “a local guy� and member of Branch 94 of the Loyal Orange Lodge was executed by firing squad by Riel loyalists in 1870. A soldier from Brighton was killed at the Battle of Little Big Horn, also know as Custer’s Last Stand, notes Mr. Morton, showing a printed account of the massacre. The sinking of the hospital ship Llandovey Castle is the subject of several newspaper accounts and photographs. The ship was sunk off the Irish coast in June 1918 with the loss of two hundred and thirty-four lives including fourteen Canadian nurses. An official poster offers a reward of 400 pounds for the capture of Louis Joseph Papineau, who was “Speaker of the House of Assembly and one of the most famous leader (sic) of the Patriot movement in Lower Canada.� The heady intoxication of victory and an end to the war are evident in a joyous colourful sketch of crowds in Parisian streets welcoming their liberators. The Heritage Centre Exhibit runs until November 14.

Stirling- When Balu and Suni Patel woke up this week, they faced a big change: retirement! The popular Stirling pharmacist and his wife have been fixtures in Stirling since May of 1992, when they purchased Joe Mantini’s drugstore on Mill Street and renamed it Balu’s Pharmacy. Seven years later, they moved to a bigger, brighter store in a complex they helped build on Tuftsville Road, where they have been ever since. But October 31 marked their last day before starting a new life as retirees. The Patels, who were born in Kenya, came to Canada in the early 1980s. Balu became a pharmacist in England, then worked in England, Saudi Arabia and Kenya before moving to Ontario, where he worked in several different pharmacies in other communities. But when the Patels became parents, they decided they needed a change. “I was working 9 to 9,� said Balu. “I couldn’t spend time with my family.� So they moved to the tiny town of Stirling, where they purchased the village’s small pharmacy. The first couple of days, there were almost no customers. But, as happens in a small town, word spread quickly that there was a new pharmacist, and soon people started coming in to welcome him and his family. In no time, the Patels

found themselves part of their new community. “I had very special relationships with so many people in the village,� Balu said. “People got to know me. I got to know them.� Meanwhile, Suni became involved in the village through their two children — going to the library, being part of school activities and meeting other parents. When the children got older, she spent more time at the store, putting her business degree to good use. “She paid a very big sacrifice, because she managed the pharmacy and looked after the kids,� Balu said. He added that the pharmacy would never have been so successful without her help and dedication. “Suni has worked way harder than me for the last 10 to 15 years,� he said. With retirement comes an opportunity to travel. Suni said she is looking forward to visiting her family in Kenya for the first time in many years, as well as spending more time with their two children, who are now grown with careers of their own. She said she and Balu have never taken a vacation that lasted longer than a week, so they are looking forward to their new lifestyle. But giving up the store is difficult, even though it will be nice not to have that responsibility any longer, she said. “I’m going to miss the people,� Suni R0013541750

Knights defend Eastern Ontario title

By Bill Freeman Bancroft – The Norwood District High Senior Knights defended their Eastern Ontario Six-a-Side Football League title in track meet like style defeating the North Hastings Huskies 72-70. The game lived up to its billing with two high octane offenses showcasing the entertainment and athletic value of the six-a-side game. The title marks the third football championship the school has earned since bringing back the football program in 2004 after a nearly 30year hiatus. In the program’s inaugural 2004 year, the Junior Knights won the COSSA title with a win over Quinte champion Bayside. In the late 1970s the Senior Knights also won a COSSA crown. Last year the seniors defeated the Car-

leton Place Bears 34-25 to win the Eastern League title. The Knights got two touchdowns each from Alex Barrett, Jacob Bennett, Mike Burtt and Kyle McGriskin with kicker Gavin Woodburn driving home six converts. “Nothing like it even for six-a-side,â€? Knights head coach Rick Thompson said afterwards. “We were scoring as much as they were so both teams were matching intensity. We knew it was going to take the entire four quarters to win,â€? Thompson said. The Huskies beat St. Mary’s with nine seconds left in their game to reach the ďŹ nal so NDHS knew they were in for a tough one and only sealed the deal with big third down defensive stand with 1:20 left in the game. “We spent a lot of time this semester

Percy Bulldogs hang on for a tie

watching ďŹ lm, doing chalk talk and polishing our play on the ďŹ eld,â€? says Thompson. “The boys did everything the coaches asked to do this year.â€? He noted that the “core group of the teamâ€? were ďŹ fth year players who wanted to cap their career at NDHS with another title. “We have always had the motto ‘not too high, not too lowâ€? and play the entire game. That motto held true.â€? Norwood scored ďŹ rst and Bancroft came right back and “the track meet was on,â€? Thompson quipped. “Both teams were extremely fast, with very skilled players. The ďŹ eld was slippery, so the offence had the advantage. I think the ďŹ eld was the great equalizer, neither defence could get any traction to tackle and once the ball carrier got through the ďŹ rst level of defence there was no catching them.â€? Thompson says he and his staff are “proudâ€? of the team for staying focussed on the main prize. “This was a special group. They have lost a lot of games during their career here and Jacob Bennett scored two touchdowns during Norwood District High’s 72-70 Eastern Ontario Six-aSide Football League championship win over the North Hastings Huskies.

Bayside sweeps Bay of Quinte girls rugby finals By Stephen Petrick Belleville – On the eve of Halloween, the Devils of girls rugby got their due. Both the Bayside She Devils senior and junior girls teams claimed Bay of Quinte Athletics high school championships on Friday, Oct. 30 with convincing wins. The seniors beat the archrival – and fellow high school rugby powerhouse – Trenton High School Tigers 27-5 at Mary-Ann Sills Park. Hours earlier the juniors beat the Centre Hastings Centurions 21-0. In the senior game, Kalen Watters had two tries, while Emily Reed, Bailey Mera and Taja Sonnenberg each scored one try. Watters also kicked one convert. It wasn’t an easy win, as Trenton entered the game as the defending Ontario Federation of Schools Athletic Association champions. But, with the game tied 5-5, Bayside scored a try late in the first half to take the lead and then put up 17 unan-

swered points in the second half. “The girls played their best game of the season, which is what you’re hoping for at this time of year,â€? said Bayside senior coach Dave Whitney. The win qualified Bayside for the Central Ontario Secondary Schools Athletics championship tournament  that was played on Wednesday, Nov. 4 in Lindsay (after press time). The winner there earned a right to represent the region at the OFSSA championships next June. Whitney said he was incredibly impressed with his team’s effort, as Trenton is no easy opponent. He said not one player played a bad game. “You measure yourself against Trenton girls rugby,â€? he said. “It was very exciting for me as a coach.â€? Whitney said Friday marked a proud day for Bayside students considering both girls rugby teams were victorious. He also said the fine results have to do with the school’s good fortune of having six trained rugby coaches available this year. Whitney coaches the seniors along

with Ian Press and Scott Dewar, while Joanne Robinson and Dusty Tibbs are involved, primarily, with the junior team. The juniors were just as dominant in their win over Centre Hastings. Darby Uens scored two tries and Nadia Stinson added on try. Hanna Fitzgerald converted all three tries with three kicks that each hit the uprights and bounced in. “The girls played awesome,� said Dewar, who was coaching the juniors that day. The win made it back-to-back Bay of Quinte championships for the junior She Devils. It qualified them to play in the COSSAA AAA championships, which they hosted on Tuesday (after press time). Dewar said the junior team had a good number of Grade 10 students, who played on last year’s championship team. Their experience showed, as the junior Red Devils, like their senior counterparts, went undefeated in the regular-season before advancing to

the finals. “We seem to have lucked out by having some excellent kids,� Dewar said. The Centurions, playing in their first girls rugby final in recent memory, went to the COSSA AA championship tournament in Campbellford on Tuesday. In the junior consolation final, Centennial beat Trenton 15-5. In the senior consolation final, Quinte beat Centennial 20-17 in overtime.

Rebels exit basement only to run into a buzz saw

By John Campbell

Campbellford – In a battle of a basement-dwellers, the Campbellford Rebels blanked the Picton Pirates 2-0 Oct. 29 to move out of the cellar in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League. Then they got thumped 12-1 in Port Hope on Halloween night by the second-place Panthers, the same team the Rebels had edged 3-2 in overtime to begin the month of October. But it was back to form for the two teams Oct. 31, as Port Hope inflicted even more damage than when clubs met in their season opener, which the Panthers won 9-1. The home side scored five powerplay goals and yielded none Saturday while directing 48 shots at the Campbellford net and allowing only 21 in reply. Ethan McDougall scored the Rebels’ lone goal, at 13:35 of the first period. Four Port Hope players – Hunter Baker, Dalton Lawrence, Evan Foley and Evan Wasylyk – scored two goals apiece, with Lawrence adding three assists. Cameron McGill also had a five-point night, all assists, for the Panthers. Rebel netminder Tyler Freeman took the loss, his fourth without a win. Cole Mahoney had an easier time in backstopping Campbellford to its conquest of Picton, facing only 29 shots to secure the shutout, his first of the season and third win. Don Ellis broke a scoreless draw at 7:57 of the second period and Jeremiah Doherty added an empty-netter in the game’s closing seconds to seal the win. Campbellford was to travel to Napanee for a game Tuesday night and then play a pair this weekend, Saturday at home against Picton (game time 7:30 p.m.), and Sunday in Gananoque. The Rebels trailed the fourth-place Jets by two points heading into this week’s play.

Campbellford advances to junior girls rugby COSSA championships

By John Campbell

Campbellford - Having won the Kawartha championship, Campbellford District High School’s junior girls rugby team was looking to complete an undefeated season with one last triumph when it hosted the COSSA championships for the first time Tuesday, Nov. 3. The Flames easily advanced to the Central Ontario Secondary School Athletics final by disposing of the Adam Scott Lions 32-0 to claim the Kawartha AA title. To get there, Campbellford vanquished Norwood 15-7 in the semifinal and I E Weldon 41-0 in the quarter-final. The winner of the CDHS-Centennial Secondary School (Belleville) match Tuesday morning advanced to the final in the afternoon to face the winner of the other contest, between Holy Cross (Peterborough) and Centre Hastings (Madoc). Campbellford had an unblemished record leading up to COSSA, with 10 wins in exhibition play, the regu-

lar season and playoffs. Todd Girdwood, who coaches the team along with Jez Tippett and Rob Milligan, credited the team’s success to the “real leadership being shown by Kristen Doyle and Abby Pearson” and the performance of some Grade 9 students who played rugby with the Peterborough Pagans prior to high school. Their experience “made our life easier,” Girdwood said. “We were just in the happy circumstance that we had a really good group of athletic girls. They just can’t help but do well.” “We’ve had many great girls who have been fantastic for us,” he continued, citing the contributions of Maddy Moodie, who runs crosscountry and is “incredibly fit,” Viva Brown, who has four sisters and a cousin who played previously for CDHS, Evangeline Dryburgh, Emma Kelly and Isabel Bennett. The results of the COSSA championship, past the newspaper’s deadline for this week, will be reported in next week’s edition.

Stirling figure skaters bring home medals Stirling-Members of the Stirling Figure Skating Club have brought home 11 medals from three competitions held this summer and fall. The competitive season began in Ottawa with five local skaters taking part in the Minto Summer Skate held July 31 to Aug. 2.

Chloe Chouinard, also 13, was sixth in her short program and ninth in her long in Pre-Novice, and Courtney LaPalm, age 11, was ninth in Juvenile Women Under 12. Two weeks later, local skaters went to the Thornhill Summer Skate competition held August 14-16. Myers improved to take home a gold medal in Pre-Juvenile Women’s Under 13 and Chouinard also stepped up her game to win the overall bronze medal in Pre-Novice Women. Jamie Potts, age 13, of the Tweed Skating Club placed twelfth in Pre-Juvenile Ladies Under 13. All three girls are coached by Lindsay Myers-Newberry. The skaters went back to Ottawa on Oct. 2-4 for the Autumn Skate and brought home a total of seven med-

County council hears from MPs, looks into policing costs By Jack Evans

The ink was barely dry on letters from Hastings County Warden Rick Phillips to Neil Ellis (Bay of Quinte) and Mike Bossio (Hastings, Lennox and Addington) to congratulate them on their federal election victories when they both appeared at the October session of county council last Thursday morning. Ellis said he is still in a state of excitement following the election. As mayor of Belleville for several years, he worked closely with the county and hopes to continue that relationship. Bossio noted he too has had some municipal experience as a former member of Tyendinaga council and understands municipal needs and problems. He also paid tribute to former Hastings and Prince Edward MP Daryl Kramp. “He deserves kudos,” he said. “He did everything possible for this riding.” In preliminary business, County officials also recognized two long service 25-year employees, and the achievements of two of its Emergency Service paradmedics, Jeff Schinke and Dominic Rehayem. Schinke had recently received the Governor General’s EMS Exemplary Services Medal. Rehayem had been awarded the N.H. McNalley Award of Bravery. Council was told Rehayim responded to a remote part of Center Hastings April 11 last where even the ATV could not get him to the location of Mike Bossio, newly elected MP for the new riding of Hastings-Lennox and Addington, addresses Hastings County Council last Thursday at the invitation of Warden Rick Phillips, right.

Health care officials discuss issues with area mayors

Hastings County Thursday dipped its feet into the frigid waters of rising hospital costs by arranging a meeting of concerned heads of council with officials of the Local Health Integration Network and Quinte Health Care. The gathering in the county council chambers included mayors of Belleville, Quinte West, Bancroft, Deseronto, Brighton and Prince Edward County plus Mary Clare Egberts for Quinte Health Care and Southeast LHIN chief operating officer Sherry Kennedy as well as Warden Rick Phillips. In his letter to arrange the meeting, the warden noted “the issues

of hospital funding and community based health care services continue to be of critical importance to our respective municipalities. We realize that growing our region economically is very much intertwined with strong, effective health care. We believe it is essential for us to come together and discuss the impacts over the next number of years on our region.� The informal discussion that resulted was applauded by all, with several mayors commenting that they learned a lot more than they expected. Brighton Mayor Mark Wallas said he was there to keep informed about Trenton Memo-

rial Hospital and beyond that, he had no interest in discussing any ‘regionalization� issues as his community is already part of an active county. Egberts reviewed new provincial funding formulas for hospitals and stressed that the changes, while they hurt, are worth while and represent the fairest way to ensure quality health care for all Ontario residents. “it hurts us because our population is small and our growth is essentially flat,� she agreed, “but it means the money goes to the people who need it the most.� She said the previous system provided some basic funding for all hospitals with an optional

pot of money that was mostly assigned based on political influence. Now, the measure for efficiency of funding procedures is based on the number of people getting treated. That means the Quinte area cannot compete with areas of greater population and growth. She agreed there are some special circumstances of increased pressures from higher than average aged people, lower income

and education and more abuse of alcohol and tobacco leading to health concerns. Bancroft Mayor Bernice Jenkins reminded her that another factor is that throughout North Hastings and much of t he area, summer populations at peak are up to 10 times the year-round residents. Egberts and Kennedy also agreed that within the provincial guidelines and LHIN funding,

Quinte Health Care tends to get �more than its fair share.� Egberts also cited QHC’s remarkable status of national quality award. Trenton Mayor Jim Harrison and John Smylie, president of Our TMH, countered that gutting TMH of many of its services mean more difficulties in keeping or attracting sufficient physicians for a growing population and military families.

He stripped his clothing and swam over in spring-thaw cold water, strapped the man on his back and got him back to shore and shelter in a cabin, warmed the victim up and finally brought him back to the ATV and ambulance for transport to proper care in hospital. Warden Phillips and EMS Chief John O’Donnell shared in presenting county honours. Schinke was unable to be present. Policing costs presented a major issue raised by several members calling for council to deal with the province to ease the burden of costs. Several

municipalities agreed it was forcing tax increases of three and four per cent per year on their taxpayers and that cannot be sustained. Suggestions from one reeve called for a study of a regional policing system or a review of the recently modified Police Act which puts policing costs on a per household basis instead of assessment. County staff agreed to prepare a study on various regional systems and also to write a letter to the provincial officials involved to review the new Police Act. Council also confirmed an earlier decision to offer 47 single detached public housing un

its up for sale. The properties are located in Belleville and Trenton. Proceeds from the sale are to be used to assist in the construction of 50 new units. Prices for the houses will be based on assessed values. Current occupants of the units will have first opportunity to bid on their house with a 10 per cent down payment. Units are to be sold “as is.” Units will be sold to the highest bidder. Tenants may also offer to purchase an alternative unit to the one they are living in from the selection offered. Several committee reports presented were passed without comment.

His mom Stephanie Switzer was there with her friend Lonnie Dawe. “I just lost my mom to cancer a year ago. We were able to keep her home and I think the Hospice is a great thing. I love Warkworth and I think it’s great to have it here,� she said. “I think it’s important for those that can’t stay at home to have a homelike setting so that’s why I am here today.� Brad Hilker, president and CEO of the Campbellford Memorial Hospital, was with his son Tristan who said, “I’ve never run in this before. I have run in cross-country races and came in third in the Peterborough Zoo run earlier this year.� His dad has participated in many runs and is raising funds not only for The Bridge Hospice but for the hospital. “I’ve got a goal this year to run 500 kilometres to raise money for the hospital and so this is my last race.

and we waited for someone to say go and the general consensus was this was a great course and we should try to turn it into something more formal and that we have done,â€? said Bryce Miller, founder and ofďŹ cial organizer of the race. As race director he would always blow a horn to signal the start to get runners moving onto the ďŹ ve and 13kilometre routes. Prior to the main events, youngsters were given the opportunity to participate in a one-kilometre run with ďŹ rst-, second- and third-place ribbons awarded. Nolan King, age nine, was one of those runners. He won ďŹ rst place in the nine- and ten-year-old division with a time of 4:45. This was his ďŹ rst time at the W8 event. He had just completed the Northumberland Forest Turkey Trot, an event in Cobourg held on Thanksgiving Monday.

Public Health promoting falls prevention strategies for older adults

Hastings & Prince Edward Counties – Older adults are being encouraged to take steps to reduce the risk of injury from a fall by Hastings Prince Edward Public Health (HPEPH) as part of its participation in Ontario’s first Fall Prevention Month in November. “Older adults have contributed so much to our province and are a vital part of our families and communities,” says Cindy Kirkpatrick, a public health nurse with Hastings Prince Edward Public Health. “Fall Prevention Month is aimed at helping older adults to age well and safely.” Falls are a serious issue for older

adults. An estimated 1 in 3 older adults fall each year. In 2010, falls were responsible for the most injury deaths in Ontario and generated $2.8 billion in costs to the provincial economy. While the costs to our health care system are significant, they are small when compared to the impacts on the lifestyle and activities of older adults who have experienced falls. Falls can disable an individual, cause mental distress and may result in a serious loss of independence. “One of the problems with preventing falls is that they are caused by a wide variety of fac-

tors,” says Kirkpatrick. “Research shows that falls are the result of a complex interaction of these factors, one of which is age. The risk of falling and being injured increases as people get older.” The good news is that falls are preventable. In preparation for Fall Prevention Month, HPEPH, in conjunction with The Ontario Injury Prevention Resource Centre, hosted the Canadian Falls Prevention Curriculum on October 26 and 27. Health and allied health professionals gained evidence-based knowledge and skills in fall prevention strategies for older adults.

To help older adults and the community to see their role in preventing falls throughout the month of November, Kirkpatrick invites residents to follow HPEPH on Facebook each week at https://www. facebook.com/hpepublichealth/ . HPEPH will focus on five risk factors and techniques for older adults to lower their risk of fallsrelated injuries: The topics are home and stairs, vision, medications, physical activity and bone health. For more information about falls prevention, visit http://www.hpepublichealth.ca/healthy-living/ injury-prevention .

Continued from B4 that brings to The Bridge Hospice is very much appreciated,” he said. “We really see them as partners in what we are doing at the Hospice and count on their good efforts every year and just really much appreciate what they are doing. All these people are out here to have fun and raise money for the Hospice.” For Miller the day was bittersweet as he plans on retiring from his role as race director to give someone else the chance to take over. “It’s my last year … in theory,” he said with a grin. “It’s been an amazing run … no pun there,” he added smiling. “It’s been a pleasure really to work with the Bridge Hospice people and be able to bring much needed cash into the coffers.” He estimates the event has raised $25,000 during the past decade. There were no race results at press time but a tally has been provided and $3,000 was raised.

OPINION

Chris Malette When someone tells you the situation of tens of thousands of Syrian refugees is insurmountable, that there’s nothing or little that we can do to help, look no farther than our own backyard. Right now, dozens of groups across Ontario and several right here in the Quinte, Trent Hills and Central Hastings region are actively planning and fundraising to sponsor families – one at a time – to help them escape the hell that is refugee camps in Europe and the Middle East.

B6

Who says we can’t open arms for refugees? Local stories abound, putting the big fat flaming lie to a certain political party’s claims that “old stock Canadians” just can’t get behind such a mass influx of Middle Eastern refugees. If it wasn’t such a sad statement that takes for granted the truly caring and open hearts of average Canadians, it would be laughable. But, now groups in Quinte West, Prince Edward County, Belleville, Brighton and Central Hastings are mobilizing to raise the estimated $30,000 – and more – needed to bring and settle the average refugee family fleeing the monstrous war in Syria. Examples abound. More than 300 St. Paul’s Secondary School staff members, students and community members last week embarked on a 20 km pilgrimage along the Murray Canal and raised more than $10,000 to help aid Syrian families coming to the Quinte region. “The pain, this is nothing to us, they have to carry a lot more on their back. They probably have broken backs and they’re still going, I feel really bad for them” said Mark Perry, 13, in grade 9 at St. Paul’s, at the halfway (10 km) mark of the trek. St. Paul teacher Phil Carney said students who wanted to be involved in the pilgrimage each pledged $20, but many went above and beyond that.

Section B - Thursday, November 5, 2015

They are donating more than $10,000 to Quinte Immigration Services to help Syrian refugees coming to the Quinte region. “The pilgrimage is, on many levels, to raise money but it is also to act in solidarity with refugee families,” he said. “The 20 km that all students and staff have done today is symbolic of the walk that a family would do leaving a war-torn country.” Orlando Ferro, Executive Director at Quinte Immigration Services, said he is thankful for the support and donations from groups like the St. Paul students and from other efforts springing up across the region. “Even if we can save a few people and bring them to Canada to safety it’s a great thing,” Ferro said. Thanks to the help of the region, multiple Syrian refugee families are currently in the process of being sponsored to move to the Quinte Region said Ferro. “At this point in time in Belleville, two [Syrian] families, with four and five members each, have already got their confirmation and they will be arriving very soon,” Ferro said. There have been some delays with bringing families to the area Ferro said but the first confirmed family is going to be arriving in Belleville in two weeks, thanks to the sponsorship

from Belleville’s Bridge Street United Church. And in Northumberland, while it’s sad to see the insular stance two municipal councillors there took to a plea for the municipality to help out, Northumberland County council will provide $10,000 to community faith groups that are sponsoring the relocation of Syrian refugee families to the county. Councillors Hector Macmillan and Mark Lovshin spoke out against the one-time payment which is to be paid through savings realized in the county’s community and social services budget. Both suggested we ought to look after our own before spending money on those outside our borders. “I hate not to support it,” said Lovshin, the mayor of Hamilton Township, but he had “a really tough time” accepting the motion brought forward by councillors Gil Brocanier and Brighton Mayor Mark Walas. Part of him made him “really want to support it” but another part said to leave it up “to the public to support on their own.” Macmillan, mayor of Trent Hills, agreed, saying it’s “a great cause” but outside council’s jurisdiction. The federal government is “responsible for those things on the world stage,” not municipalities. “We have staff here

who can attest to the struggles that our own residents right here in our county are enduring, because of ... the cost of everything going up [and] the lack of good quality, paying jobs,” he said. In Prince Edward County, PEC Syria is sponsoring a Syrian Refugee family through the Ryerson University Lifeline Syria Challenge. At the first community meeting on Sept. 7 at Bloomfield Town Hall, more than 100 people showed up. They voted unanimously to sponsor Syrian refugees through Ryerson University’s Lifeline Syria Challenge. Volunteers divided into six groups responsible for everything from fundraising to securing housing. That evening, more than $40,000 was pledged toward the $75,000 goal. Several community members in Prince Edward who speak Arabic have already come forward to offer their assistance with translation and friendship. Ryerson University is also providing on-call translation services by phone for situations where accuracy is critical for such things as health and finance. A family is in the process of moving to Prince Edward County any day, say organizers, and there is even a house that has been provided by a landlord for their use. The family has several Continued on page B8

A Visit to the National D-Day Memorial at Bedford, Virginia The arch at the National D-Day Memorial.

D-Day Memorial’s largest component, the Elmon T. Gray Plaza, amid the flags of the countries from which the soldiers had come. Another touching, moving component of the memorial is its invasion tableau, with its realistic sculptures of Allied soldiers who are depicted landing on the beaches and scaling the cliffs. There are even spurts of water bursting forth, near the soldiers, indicating the danger that they were in from enemy fire as they tried to reach the shores of Normandy. This section of the Memorial clearly illustrates the courage and sacrifice of these soldiers. A large green war medic tent is located on this property, and it reminded me of the old TV show “MASH” (it’s now used for offices). The four gates into the memorial each have a portrait bust of one of the national leaders of the “Big Four” Allied Nations: Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, Chiang Kai-shek, and Franklin D. Roosevelt. There was also “Le Monument aux Morts” on site, which is a recasting of Edmond de Laheudrie’s WWI sculpture located at Trevieres, France, and it’s a bittersweet reminders of both

the glory of victory and the blood spilled to achieve it. Another monument, the Purple At the D-Day Memorial, with some of the Allied flags flying in the background. Heart Monument, pays tribute to all those who received the Purple Heart, and yet another object of interest here is a restored L-3 fighter plane, with its bright white stripes on the wings, for this was a glaring reminder that during the heat of battle, it had been very difficult to know if the planes were yours or belonged to the enemy, and there were, unfortunately, several casualties caused by “friendly fire”. Therefore, the stripes were placed on the wings of the Allied planes to help recognize them! The mission of the National D-Day Memorial is “to preserve the lessons and legacy of D-Day”. It’s an important educational resource, and guided tours are available. Entrance and a tour will cost an adult $10.00. It’s possible to simply wander about by yourself, but I’d strongly recommend taking a guided tour, for you’ll find out so much more information. For example, I learned that the triumphal arch rises exactly 44 and a 1/2 feet above the ground, alluding to the fact that D-Day took place in the 6th month of 1944.

In my most recent Remembrance Day articles, I’ve talked about such important destinations and memorials as the St. Julien Monument, Menin Gate, Vimy Ridge, and the In Flanders Fields Museum. As our Remembrance Day approaches once again, I’ve decided to write a piece this time on the National DDay Memorial, which I visited in Bedford, Virginia, USA. It’s an American WWII memorial, of course, but I found this to be a profoundly moving monument and a solemn tribute to all the Allied Forces that participated in the invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944. The National D-Day Memorial borders the Blue Ridge Mountains in southwest Virginia, and it overlooks the small town of Bedford. This particular site was chosen because the town of Bedford suffered the greatest per capita loss of life during the invasion. There’s even a statue on site that’s dedicated to these Bedford boys, for 19 of them died that day (out of 35 recruits). This bronze statue, entitled “Homage”, depicts a soldier with his eyes closed, looking down, and paying respect at the makeshift grave of a fallen comrade from Bedford. This grieving soldier’s helmet has been removed, and his rifle has been reversed out of respect. It reminds me of our very own St. Julian Memorial, often referred to as “The Brooding Soldier”, which is located in Belgium and commemorates Canadian soldiers’ involvement in the WWI Battle of Ypres. There were several components to the success of the D-Day invasion of Normandy, including the early planning and preparation, the English Channel crossing and landing, the Allied victory on the beaches of Normandy, and the impact of D-Day beyond Normandy. After all, the code name for this carefully planned invasion was “Operation Overlord”, and it’s generally thought to have begun with the battle at Normandy itself and ended more than two months later, with the liberation of Paris and the retreating of the German forces across the Seine River. Similarly, the National D-Day Memorial itself has several components, too. For example, there’s a large statue of General Dwight D. Eisenhower on site, located in an English garden. Eisenhower, the Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force, exclaimed that the tactical operation was a crusade in which “we will accept nothing less than full victory”. With the passing of time, that’s exactly what happened. Therefore, the monument’s large victory arch has the word “OVERLORD” in large block letters. On D-Day, the Allied forces came ashore on five Normandy beaches: Utah, Gold, Sword, Omaha, and Juno, and I’ve been to France and seen the actual area of the invasion. There were many casualties on D-Day, and the names of the approximately 4,500 Allied servicemen who were killed on that day are all inscribed on bronze tablets in the National

children in an age range spanning 18 years. I know a great guy from Belleville, Al Koudsi, who has stepped forward. Al, who runs an accounting company in Belleville as well as a gas station and convenience store in the County, hails from Syria. His involvement there is both invaluable to the efforts of resettlement for the family and truly admirable, in my books. Then there are examples of the likes of kindness expressed by ordinary high school students. When Alex Tse, 14, learned about

the project, he approached student council at Moira Secondary School in Belleville to see how they could contribute. With help from the school administration, he and his friends are connecting with other area schools to raise $20,000. “I feel a lot of us would like to contribute but didn’t know how,” he says. “We are planning a welcoming party for the kids coming to school here. We will team up and offer them tutoring.” For groups wishing to see if their community or church group could get involved in

helping ease the suffering of just one family from the hundreds of thousands of displaced from Syria, check the following link on the Toronto Star website: h t t p : / / w w w. t h e s t a r. c o m / n e w s / insight/2015/11/02/how-to-sponsor-andresettle-syrian-refugees.html I know many of us were shocked, sickened and astonished that our federal election campaign could descend to the level where these refugees became a political football, but it’s heartening to see groups across the region

stepping forward to repudiate the rumblings of intolerance that were stirred up in the whole ugly mess. Look in your own family tree. Chances are you too came from immigrant refugee stock of one sort or another, and these people fleeing war and deprivation are only seeking what our ancestors here wanted – a life free from turmoil, war and upheaval where they can make a life for themselves and their families.

LIFESTYLES

The Good Earth: Now is the time

Dan Clost Now is not the time for a Christmas column. Now is not the time for an end of season column. Now is the time to contact a landscaper if you are planning any projects for next year. I’m talking about the folks who will be putting the shovels into the ground. I’m not forgetting the landscape architects or designers as they are equally important except their window of work is whenever they desire it to be, as long as we take away

the requirement for income out of the equation. The point being that they can draw up a plan for a formal garden in January but clearly the plan can’t be implemented until the frost is out of the ground. Many of the landscapers with whom I am chatting are telling me they are booked until early fall of 2016 and a few are already taking referrals for 2017! There is a reason for this, GR. (By the way, everything I am about to say about landscaping companies applies equally to the architects and designers.) In many professions and trades, equilibrium seems to be struck between the need for services and the ability of that industry to provide those services. There will be times when one or the other is out of balance due to economic fortunes but those situations seem to resolve themselves relatively quickly. In my opinion, and I am aware that many will disagree with me, the landscaping industry is very different. Ours is an unregulated industry in that anyone can stick a sign on the side of their wheelbarrow and go into business as a landscaper. When a factory closes, we see a direct correlation between displaced workers and new landscape companies. When a new bug decides to invade the area, i.e. Emerald Ash Borer, we see a direct

correlation between that opportunity and new arborists coming through our doors. They will have taken a ministry-approved chainsaw operator’s training session and advertise themselves as being certified. One such arborist spoke about cutting down some Mountain Ash so as to protect other ashes in the neighbourhood. They are no longer in business and, frankly, I have forgotten their name but their boasting remains in my memory. There is a strong argument that suggests the industry is well-regulated through various acts and regulations set by federal and provincial authorities and that is true. What is not apparent is that there are those engaged in the trade who are not always compliant to those regulations or indeed, are even aware of them. They would rather pay a fine, hoping that no-one is injured, than accept responsibility for all parts of the industry. We call these folks “fly-by-nighters” who offer tail-gate warrantees. They might even have nice equipment but be sure to check for rebadging as the “owner” lurches from bankruptcy to bankruptcy leaving incomplete, shoddy work behind them. Gentle Reader, this is equal parts sour grapes and caveat emptor. I am so tired of speaking with angry cus-

tomers who are upset with their “landscaper” because of less than adequate service provision. Probing reveals that the customer did not ask to see any certifications or referrals, did not read a contract or in some cases, did not receive a contract. Caveat emptor: buyer beware. Not for a minute am I trying to lay any blame upon our customer other than to say lack of prudence is never a good thing in any business transaction. I am discouraged by the facility of those charlatans to impugn the character of the good people in our industry; those who care about their customer and their business. The ones who try to be in compliance (and, believe me, this is a very expensive and time-consuming thing to do), who ensure that they and their employees are properly trained in whatever task they are doing, who listen to their customer’s requests and respond appropriately and believe in what they are doing. Landscape Ontario Horticultural Trade Association (LO), the largest volunteer organisation of its kind in the world, came into being for these reasons: “Our mission is to be the leader in representing, promoting and fostering a favourable climate for the advancement of the horticulture industry in Ontario.”

What is very telling is to read how LO realises their mission. General Principles (seven) and Operating Principles (seven) can be found on their website, <www.hortrades.com>. Of those 14 principles, four refer directly to the customer, seven address confidence and trust in the profession, four speak to maintaining and improving knowledge and competencies, and all of them can be linked to this statement: “To protect, at all times, the integrity of the profession, the interests of the client and the general public.” These are the folks taking bookings for late next year and beyond. These are the folks you want working with you on your landscaping projects. Now is the time to call them.

Trenton Woodlot Conference: Biodiversity and Secrets of the Forest

Michael Runtz, keynote speaker, will reveal The Secret Life of a Forest: not all of what goes on in a forest is visible to our eye. Submitted photo

Batawa - The 26th Annual Trenton Woodlot Conference is all about the many delightful secrets of biodiversity, say organizers. The Hastings Stewardship Council hosts the conference on Friday Nov. 20. After 25 years, the new location is the Batawa Community Centre, north of Trenton. The Trenton Woodlot Conference is the top-notch forestry event in eastern Ontario, providing expert guidance on woodlot/forest management and landowner programs. And once again, interactive afternoon field trips get participants out in the woods. This is a great opportunity to talk to forestry professionals and network with like-minded people. The field trips will be on site at Batawa ski hill, and will include standards such as Geology & Biology, and Forest Management. This year, Forest Bathing will cover the positive effects

of nature on our physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing. After all, we evolved in woodlands. Michael Runtz, keynote speaker, will reveal The Secret Life of a Forest: not all of what goes on in a forest is visible to our eye. This highly visual tour will show normally unseen living things and their interactions in our woodlands. Discover surprising and hidden aspects of this remarkable habitat, such as eggs that entice ants to carry them off, and seeds that fly on drops of rain. That’s why Runtz is one of Canada’s most highly respected naturalists, nature photographers, natural history authors and teachers. Mark Stabb will present Ontario’s Biodiversity: Is Nature on the Run? Acre by acre, private landowners contribute directly to biodiversity through shortterm actions and long-term plans. Mark will show how

individual efforts fit into the big picture of biodiversity conservation, in the context of woodlots and rural lands. Mark Stabb is the Central Ontario program director with the Nature Conservancy of Canada, and he oversees numerous conservation projects. The afternoon program is a choice between the outdoor field trips OR two indoor presentations. In the first, Rob Johnson will give an overview of the Green Legacy Programme - the largest municipal tree planting program in North America. Rob will explain many ways to utilize trees on the farm, and principles of permaculture, intercropping, silvo pasturing, and commercial varieties of fruit and nut trees. In the second, Eleanor Thomson, field botanist, will present Botany in your Woodlot: Everyday Mysteries and Beauties. This photo talk will help you

discover new plants - when you learn to look closely and a few rarities to watch for. Doors open on Nov. 20 at 8 a.m. for viewing of exhibits and artisan products. The program begins at 9:30 a.m. and finishes at 4:30 p.m. The location is the Batawa Community Centre at 81 Plant St., Batawa (north of Trenton). Admission is $30, including lunch. Preregistration by Nov. 14 is suggested, to ensure a hot lunch. Tickets may be purchased online at hastingsstewardship.ca. For more information, contact 613 391 9034 or info@ hastingsstewardship.ca. The Hastings Stewardship Council works to support sustainable forest management, tree planting projects, best agricultural practices, wildlife education, environmental awareness programs, and sustainable stewardship of our land and resources.

Fall seminar features benefits of healing herbs trict Horticultural Society and showcased 17 horticultural societies from Brighton to Minden. About 100 members of the various societies gathered in the upstairs hall of the Campbellford Legion where they enjoyed a full agenda of activities, lunch and a meeting, beginning with a welcome by Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan. “Hector said how proud he was of our organization. He knew of the work we have done. He gave us the Mayor’s Civic Pride Award this year you know,� commented Joan

Martin, chair of the committee that organized the seminar. She takes over as president of the local horticultural society next month from Lois Bennett. “The district societies get together every spring and fall for the purpose of passing on information, awarding district trophies and having lunch together,� said Martin. One of the awards acknowledged, the Hazel Wilson Award, had been presented to Bennett earlier this year. The agenda for the day included a discussion in the morning about “antispam and

horticultural emails.â€? “It obviously needs clarification in terms of how we use technology and what we accept into our computer,â€? Martin said. “There is always a speaker at the district seminar who talks about something topical and it is also a time when we talk about new legislation, whatever the administrative board wants to tell us,â€? she explained. The theme of this seminar was herbs.  “The title of my talk is growing herbs for food, medicine and good looks,â€? Koidu told The Independent. She grew up in Sweden and spent a lot of her childhood days learning about herbs and their medicinal properties from two elderly aunts. Her father was a doctor and mother was a pharmacist. “You get benefits from herbs not only by taking them as medicine or eating the herbs but the scent has the same affect on your body especially when it comes to let’s say, mood enhancers,â€? she added. “Did you know that if you smell Rosemary your thoughts will get much sharper and better?â€? she queried grinning. “Koidu has been doing this for 16 years in lectures and seminars and Koidu Sulev, left, the retail supervisor and herb expert at Richters Herbs newspapers and committees and in Goodwood, was the guest speaker at the District 4 fall seminar hosted and District Horticultural Society.

Campbellford hospital’s Angels of Care Campaign

By Sue Dickens

Campbellford – An opportunity to be an angel comes around rarely but here it happens once each year here when the Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) Foundation launches its Angels of Care campaign. “Today we’re launching the ninth annual Angels of Care campaign,� said John Russell, foundation executive director. The goal this year is to raise $125,000. “This campaign has become an annual community tradition and we rely on the community to come through for us,� Russell said at a recent press conference. He was joined by Co-Chief of Staff Dr. Celeste Collins and Lab Manager Moe Goulet. “These are two people who are playing a critical role in this year’s campaign. Dr. Collins is the honourary chair and Moe is providing us with outstanding guidance to help shape the campaign,� noted Russell. “Both of these professionals have a tremendous passion for Campbellford Memorial Hospital and care deeply about quality health care close to home.� Funds raised through this year’s campaign will be invested in new high priority equipment for the laboratory. A letter is being mailed this week to supporters and others to bring awareness to this year’s need. In the letter Dr. Collins writes, “Right now CMH has an urgent need for laboratory equipment. The lab is key for giving

patients the best diagnosis, treatment and care. In fact up to 85 percent, if not higher, of the decisions made here about a patient’s diagnosis and treatment are based on lab tests.� Last year CMH lab staff performed almost 500,000 tests. “Funds raised this year during the campaign will help the foundation fulfill the hospital’s priorities for the medical equipment needs in the lab,� noted Russell. The list includes a blood film stainer ($23,000), coagulation analyzer ($45,000), chemistry analyzer ($150,000), osmometer ($15,000) and urinalysis analyzer ($10,000). The letter explains what each of these pieces of equipment is used for in the lab. As well, once again hospital supporters are being invited to fill out an “Angel Card� which can include words of thanks to health-care professionals, a message to a family member or friend or even a note of encouragement to a patient at CMH. The cards of support and encouragement can be given to patients and quite often will be posted around the hospital for everyone to read. Another returning feature of the campaign is the “Holiday Cheer for the Hospital� campaign. Started with great success in 2012, the foundation is encouraging people to host an event in their home, workplace, church group or social club and invite guests to

The ninth annual Angels of Care campaign was launched at a press conference held by the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation. Letters to supporters and other will be in the mail this week: from left, Eugene Brahaney, foundation member; Dr. Celeste Collins, chief of staff and campaign honourary chair; Moe Goulet, lab manager; Bruce Thompson, foundation member; and Cindy McMurray, foundation member.

make a donation to the hospital in support of the campaign. “It could be a tea party with treats, social gathering in the evening or a coffee break at work,� said Russell. “Just let the foundation know you are hosting a ‘Holiday Cheer Party’ so you can get your registration package and get-started goodie bas-

ket.� New this year is a large banner that is now hanging on the outside of the hospital building to bring awareness to the campaign. Bruce Thompson, a foundation board member and his wife Betsy, are donating $5,000 to get the campaign started.

“As well, the Royal Canadian Legion District F hospital fund has agreed to support the purchase of the urinalysis analyzer,� said Russell. Those interested in supporting the campaign or learning more about it can call or visit the CMH Foundation office or go to: <www.angelsofcare.ca>.

DEATH NOTICE

OBITUARY

REDDING Albert Died suddenly on 26 October 2015 of toxic brain injury after suffering cardiac arrest on October 19 while at the Ottawa Heart Institute on an unrelated procedure. He is survived by his wife and soulmate Monique Fournier-Redding. Son of Ellen Redding. Brother of Nancy, Wayne (Jane), Cindy (Matt), Rodney (Lea). Teresa (Geoff), Bradley (Dale) and James (Cindy). Brotherin-law to Lise (Fournier) and John Ausman (Paul and Christine) Also survived by a great number of Redding nieces and nephews and great nieces and great nephews. Albert was predeceased by his father Kenneth Redding and his grandparents Rev. Albert Redding, Harold and Edalene Lloyd and Beatrice and Wilfred Pat Smith. When he was not driving trucks, nature was his outdoor playground. Albert was an avid fisherman and hunter (Limerick camp 24). In 1986, he moved to Ottawa to explore what living with a teacher would be like. They married in 1987. Albert persevered through many medical challenges in his 60 years. He always did it with strength and remarkable courage. A heartfelt thanks to the Ottawa Heart Institute for their world class care. During their 30 wonderful years together, Albert and Monique had 3 furry children (by choice). After 7 years of patience, Opie and Whitney are finally reunited with Daddy. In the meantime, Daisy will have to be content with virtual belly rubs until they meet again. Family and friends of Albert are invited to come and share in a Celebration of life, November 7, 2015, from 1-3 p.m. at the Madoc Performing Arts Centre on the corner of Durham St. and Richardson in the community of Madoc.

You are invited to attend a TransCanada Open House for the proposed Eastern Mainline Project. TransCanada is proposing to construct a new natural gas transmission pipeline in Ontario between the City of Markham and the Township of Edwardsburgh/Cardinal. The proposed pipeline will be constructed in four sections and will be 36 inches in diameter primarily following the existing route where TransCanada currently operates two natural gas pipelines. TransCanada recently announced that new commitments with natural gas shippers have resulted in additional pipeline requirements in the City of Quinte West and the Townships of Elizabethtown-Kitley, Augusta and Edwardsburgh/Cardinal. Open Houses in Oshawa and Clarington will provide opportunities to share project updates including routing, environmental and engineering studies, and ongoing engagement. TransCanada continues to engage with First Nation and Métis communities and organizations, municipalities, area residents, community organizations and interested parties throughout the development of this proposed project. TransCanada experts will be present to answer questions.

We support the best cause anywhere – working with our community to make Belleville General Hospital the best equipped community hospital in Canada – so we can make care better for everyone in the Quinte region who needs our services. BGH provides primary care to people in the Belleville area and specialized secondary care to people from throughout the Quinte region. The government never did pay for hospital equipment, but now as operating budgets are being slashed, community support for BGH is critical. We’re looking for the best person to play a lead role in shaping health care in our region by working with people in our community, to reach their goals, through significant gifts to make care better at BGH. If you’re reading this thinking, “I was born for this. I have seniorlevel fundraising experience; I thrive on building relationships and believe that a donor’s goals for giving are as important as the hospital’s goals. I will be a passionate teller of the BGH story, because I know miracles happen there every day – and it’s donors who buy the equipment to make it possible. I want to be part of a dynamic team. I think BIG, and I believe that making care better at BGH is my calling,” then we’d like to talk to you. Please send your cover letter and resume to bgfoundation@qhc.on.ca

Amateur genealogists love thrill of family sleuthing

Hastings – It’s a chase that requires time and patience but the rewards are thrilling for the “amateur” genealogists who meet in Hastings to share the work they’ve done on family trees. “It’s very rewarding when you do find something,” says Pat O’Neill, a regular member of the six-year-old group that meets at the Hastings Library. The small, informal group held an open house as part of Ontario Public Library Week celebrations. “A lot of people were expressing an interest in family trees,” says librarian Shirley Coughlan who acknowledged that local interest and helped start the group. “We’re all interested in genealogy and we’re all working on family trees,” says Coughlan. “Some have done more than others but we’re all learning as we go along.” They’re “definitely more comfortable” now as researchers than they were six years

ago. The Hastings Library subscribes to Ancestry.ca and Coughlan says it’s a key resource for their group and others who come to the library to research family history. The library also has several books and magazines on genealogy. The group has travelled to the Cobourg Public Library which has a large archive and active genealogy group. There’s also the nearby Family History Centre at the Church of Jesus Christ the Latter-day Saints in Trent River. Having Ancestry at the library is a “huge help,” says Coughlan. Because there is “so much out there” the group admits research can be overwhelming at times. “Fifteen to 20 percent is online otherwise the rest is still in books, town halls, churches,” says O’Neill who regrets not talking to his grandparents and other family elders about family history. “Usually when you get to our

age you realize the people who know all this stuff are gone. There are so many questions I could have asked my mother and father. Talk to your elders before they can’t.” But the research is endlessly fascinating, O’Neill adds. “The hardest thing I find is staying on track, looking at one person and following it through. It’s so easy to go in different directions.” Connecting with relations in distant countries is also a gratifying offshoot of research, they say. Coughlan’s research has connected her to relatives in Norway; another member has made trips to England and Scotland with new-found relations. “It’s just really neat,” says Coughlan, adding that research should be more than just names and dates. “It’s the stories too and not just the facts; you want to know them, what they went through, the period of history they went through. I think it’s important to flesh it out.”

“You get these amazing connections,” Skye Morrison agreed. “You want to meet people who are looking for the same sort of things, how things

came to be. Usually people are very curious even if they’re faraway distant relatives. It’s very important if people are interested to get them con-
