Nourish Havelock wants to build on last year’s success News - Havelock - Nourish Havelock is keen to get back into the soil and build on last year’s community garden success and a well-attended seed-starting workshop the group hosted Saturday was a good sign. “Overall, the group is feeling very positive about our accomplishments this past year and we look forward to putting more beds in and [attracting] more gardeners,� says Nourish member Amanda O’Rourke. Nourish Havelock is part of the larger Nourish movement in Peterborough County and has thrived building and cultivating

ten fully accessible raised community gardens at Your OfďŹ ce in the east end of Havelock. Their goal is to increase the number of beds in the community, says O’Rourke. “We’re feeling very positive about getting more beds and getting some more people signed up,â€? she said during the workshop which featured a talk by Helen Evergroen of the Campbellford and District Horticultural Society and a seasoned member of the Campbellford Farmers’ Market. O’Rourke says Nourish was thrilled with how well the community garden project went with families with young children

among those who tended the very fruitful plots. “And this workshop turned out very well with everybody from the community contributing healthy snacks. Helen has a lot of experience so it’s nice to have her here.� The committee hosted two workshops at the community garden last summer and O’Rourke is hopeful they can hold more in the future. “There’s talk of doing a seed saving workshop if there’s enough interest.� There is also the possibility of holding a session on how to put a Continued on page 5

Rutter said. “Certainly there are beneďŹ ts but there are risks.â€? The risks include additional costs to maintain the shoulders of roads that ATVs travel on and the possibility the municipality could end up paying most of a settlement should an accident occur with an ATV resulting in an operator suffering a severe injury. If council were to approve a bylaw, Rutter said, it should allow ATVs on roads just from mid-April to mid-November during daylight hours, from dawn to dusk. There should also be a formal review at the end of the trial period. Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan suggested staff prepare a list of roads where ATVs not be allowed because they have little or no shoulders, making them “very unsafe.â€? Councillor Cathy Redden said the clubs should assist in monitoring the roads for “yahoos who decide to come through [Trent Hills] and blow it for everybody.â€? Councillor Ken Tully said operating ATVs on local roads is “a privilege ‌ it’s not a right and it has to be respected.â€?

proposal twice before and been turned down, the last time three years ago. Since then municipalities on either side of Trent Hills have passed bylaws allowing all-terrain vehicles on their roads, Rutter noted. Across eastern Ontario 83 per cent of municipalities have ATV bylaws, said McCarrell, the retired Trent Hills farmer whose request was backed by the Northumberland Riders and the Havelock and District ATV Club. “It’s difďŹ cult to ďŹ nd municipalities that are saying this is problematic,â€? Rutter told council April 21. “In fact no one is telling us that they passed a bylaw and it is a problem.â€? McCarrell again spoke to the economic beneďŹ ts she said would come from allowing ATVs access to municipal roads, and rebutted arguments against the bylaw put forward April 7 by Dwight Boyd, president of the Trent Hills Ratepayers Association, who raised concerns about the safety of ATVs, their impact on property values, and municipal liability. “Both sides have very eloquently stated their positions,â€?

Mayor Hector Macmillan said he has “swayed back and forthâ€? on the issue but he now believes it “is a risk worth taking for at least one yearâ€? to ďŹ nd out if it can work. “There are millions of dollars we are missing out on that’s being injected into the economyâ€? of other municipalities in Ontario through “ATV tourism,â€? he said. “It’s a great decision,â€? NDATV president Mike Ainsworth said after council voted unanimously–Councillor Bill Thompson wasn’t present–to have a bylaw drawn up. “It’s somethingâ€? his club, ATV operators in Trent Hills, and council “can build on [to] make a success story.â€? Ainsworth said his group would help ďŹ nancially with the cost of putting up signs as well as “soft wardenâ€? the route to ensure it is used properly. The municipality is “the missing linkâ€? that prevents riders from the south part of the county being able to connect to the Eastern Ontario Trails system. “Thank you, Trent Hills, we’re going to make it work,â€? he said. Former councillor Kim McNeil, while “not necessarily supportive of the decisionâ€? made by council, said now that the municipality has “adopted the riskâ€? and associated costs, it needs “to ďŹ nd a way to reap the rewards.â€? She suggested Trent Hills’ strategic plan be amended to show how that can be done, to prevent the municipality from becoming just “a throughwayâ€? to other communities who will beneďŹ t instead. Boyd was furious council decided to have a bylaw drafted, arguing once again in an interview that ATV trafďŹ c will not generate tourism dollars and that the municipality’s insurance costs “will skyrocketâ€? as a result of litigation that’s sure to occur as a result of an accident. Boyd said his association will “push hard for a public meeting,â€? as was done the last time the request for a bylaw was made. “It would be an outright slap in the face to the residents of this municipality if they do not have a public meeting,â€? he said.

Council supports push to amend trespass act By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - Township council has thrown its support behind a private member’s bill that would amend the Trespass to Property Act to include a minimum fine and an increase in the upper-end penalty. Conservative MPP Sylvia Jones’ (Dufferin-Caledon) private member’s Bill 36 (Respecting Private Property Act) has reached second reading in the provincial legislature and advanced to the Standing

Committee on Justice Policy for consultation. Jones is trying to rally public support for Bill 36, something township Councillor Debbie Lynch urged council to do. “This is really important to people in our agriculture community. I feel very strongly about this,” said Lynch. If Bill 36 passes into law it would create a $500 minimum penalty for trespassing and increase the maximum fine to $25,000.

Currently the Trespass to Property Act has no minimum fine and only has a maximum fine of $1,000 on compensation for damages. “Bill 36 would ensure property owners are fairly compensated for destruction of their property and signal that trespassing is a serious issue that will not be taken lightly by the justice system,” says Jones. Jones is looking for both municipal support and input at the committee level.

Lynch said that people “might not realize” that a landowner does not have recourse to insurance to repair damage that is caused by a trespasser. If a fence is damaged during a trespass the property owner is stuck with the cost of repairs. “That’s not nice,” she said. “The way I look at it is they’re taking away from property owner’s rights so it’s very important that this is supported.” Trespassers can end up damaging crops,

livestock and fencing and the landowner is left to cover the cost of repairs, says Jones, and “the costs can quickly add up to thousands of dollars.” “Increasing the limit on compensation for damages allows property owners to be fairly compensated for destruction of their property,” she says. “A minimum fine will also send a message that trespassing is a serious issue and should not be taken lightly.”

View Retirement Centre where it will begin afresh during the first week of May. Declining revenues at the New To You shop led to the decision to shift operations to Maple View where many of Community Care’s clients live. “We’re moving physically but we’re still in town and to me that’s a key thing,” Community Development Co-Ordinator Kelly Small said. “We’re not closing down services or the office.” It’s a “happy and sad day,” Small admitted, particularly for the volunteers who staffed the office. “Lots of volunteers, clients and general members of the community have been impacted. It will definitely change the face of the streetscape [but] there are lots of familiar faces at Maple View; a number of our client base live there so it will be a new opportunity for them.” It’s not the first move for Community Care Norwood which started out in the basement of the Pine Street Centre then moved to space in the back of the building they are now leaving. The organization

has used the street-side office for at least the past 13 years. Norwood played a key role in the inception of Community Care Peterborough hosting a number of key organization meetings in the late 1980s with local luminaries like former Norwood reeve Joan Marshall and Bill James of Keene in the forefront of developing an organization that that has since evolved into a county-wide network of offices serving 5,571 clients with 910 volunteers. “We’re part of the heritage of Community Care,” said Small. The Norwood office has 47 volunteers and serves 171 clients. The move into the new space will not take long, Small says. “What will take longer is to readjust mentally and emotionally to the new space.” The Community Care sign will be installed at Maple View. “We will be visible. We may be moving from this space physically but I really feel the impact we’ve had on the history of this community will linger.” “Being here on the main

Big crowds expected at Celebrate Havelock News - Havelock - A free shuttle bus service and expanded outdoor exhibit area will draw even more people to the eighth annual Celebrate Havelock trade show and community showcase May 9. Last year over 1,000 people attended the show at the Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Community Centre and committee member Brian Grattan expects an equally large crowd this year and is excited about the larger outdoor exhibit area which now also includes the parking lot. “With the exception of the petting zoo and K-9 Komfort Inn everybody will be on the hard top because we’ve expanded,” he said. Outdoor exhibits include Hydro One’s 1,000-square-foot Electricity Discovery Centre (EDC), a climate-controlled, fully accessible, double expandable event trailer filled with interactive exhibits. Grattan says municipal councillors and staff saw the display at the Ontario East conference and wondered if it would be available for Celebrate Havelock. “We followed that up,” he said. The EDC display will be in town for two days with Friday dedicated to visits by students from Havelock Belmont Public School.

garden to bed when the growing season ends. “We’ll try to have something like that,” O’Rourke said. “I think the aim is to work with the community and help educate people about eating healthy and how to grow food. It really helps to bring the community together; it’s nice to see the new faces and people being excited about eating healthy. The Nourish Havelock committee has also hosted two extremely successful community dinners featuring locally grown and sourced produce. Their last dinner included produce from the community garden’s first season; one garden bed was collectively tended by committee members and produced food that was donated to the Havelock Food Bank as well as the community dinner.

tional exhibits].” There will be between 40 to 50 indoor exhibits and ten to 12 outside, he said. Presenting the trade show before the May long weekend is also ideal because they’re able to catch exhibitors before they get too busy with summer demand. “We always hear from people who are surprised by the number of services available in HBM,” says Grattan. “It’s nice to hear that because it gains that exposure for those businesses.” The prize list with “well over $5,000” worth of items to be won is always a big draw. “It’s a very giving community. Without our sponsors we would not be where we are today,” Grattan said. Unimin has donated a $2,000 STIHL prize package, while the Havelock Jamboree

has donated two day passes; Country 105 has two tickets for Ian Tyson. “It certainly has grown,” Grattan says of the show. “You always fear when an event will plateau but we seem to grow it a little bit every year. I can’t say enough about the sponsorship.” Entertainers include the Havelock Jammers, Ryan Anderson’s Train Wreck, the NDHS Guitar Band, the Kitchen Kuties and the DeJong Sisters from Marmora. “It’s a family event with lots for everyone,” Grattan said. Once again they will be collecting non-perishable items for the local food bank with donors receiving a free draw ticket.

Other big displays include the Peterborough County-City Health Unit’s mobile dental clinic and the TD Canada Trust mobile bank, currently pressed into use next to Havelock’s TD Canada Trust branch on Ottawa Street. “We’ve maxed out on the hardtop,” Grattan says so they’re asking visitors to park at the medical clinic and along the south side of Highway 7 and use the free shuttle provided by Ellwood Hamilton Bus Lines. “In the past it has been kind of hard to find parking so hopefully this will solve that. It will be a little bit nicer for our outdoor exhibitors rather [than being] in a mish mash of trees.” Celebrate Havelock is a great marketing tool for the municipality and its businesses and services, Grattan says. “It’s a good way for a new business to get exposure in the community.” And with expanded advertising they are getting a “greater reach” than just HBM. The priority is to showcase local opportunities but Grattan says if a service is not available in the municipality they will invite people from outside but they “certainly want to promote the HBM businesses first.” “We have had tremendous feedback from exhibitors.

St. Joseph’s church cross project will get Ballagh Bunch boost

in Peterborough June 7 for two shows. It will be the fourth fundraising concert hosted by St. Joseph’s parish. The “tired tilting cross” was removed from the church in December 2014, largely for the safety of the church and parishioners who attend church at St. Joseph’s, says Annette Dunford, a member of St. Joseph’s. “The weight of the cross was very substantial at some 500 pounds,” says Dunford. “The only thing that was really keeping our cross atop the bell tower was the steel lightning rod straps attached on either side of the cross structure. Almost the entire base of the copper-covered wooden cross was rotten. “Extremely tired wood that had stood the test of time” since mounted on the tower Workers from Redpath Crane and Dragline in Lakefield re- sometime in the nineteenth move the historic 500-pound cross that sits atop the bell century.

The December removal was done by Redpath Crane and Dragline out of Lakefield. The Ballagh Bunch–father Gary on bass, mother Jan, manager and step-dancer, Devan, Michael, Paige and Matthew– has been touring across Canada and the

United States and performed in several theatre productions since they first hit the stage as a group ten years ago. The family ensemble has starred in two Drayton Entertainment productions, Canadian and Sorry, I’m Canadian, and performed several summers in a row at the Canadian National Exhibition and on the main stage in Downtown Disney in Florida as well as the International Plowing Match. Members of the band also have won fiddle and step-dancing awards

at competitions across Canada. They are popular performers at summer music festivals appearing at events like the Goderich Celtic Roots Festival, the Kincardine Scottish Festival, the Bon Ami Festival in Dalhousie, New Brunswick, and the Irish Festival in Tignish, Prince Edward Island. Tickets are $22.50 for adults and $12 for students. To purchase tickets or for more information call 705-295-6491 or 705-652-7776.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Enough with the Kudos to all on new moniker

Dear Editor, It was a delight to read Sue Dickens’ informative article about a new flower in the lapel of Warkworth as a “designated arts community.” The Arts & Heritage Gallery is “something made of nothing” through the dedicated efforts and hard work of the volunteers involved, in particular Clive Russell, Judy Kaufman, Sheree Rasmussen and David Pollack. If not for their efforts, the old Memorial Hall would now be a storage unit, which would have been a dreary addition to the village’s landscape. However, as a result of their efforts, Warkworth will have yet another cultural draw to add to an already impressive roster of buildings and events. The village definitely deserves its “designated arts community” moniker since it’s a happening place for such a small population. Kudos to all involved. Gary Hoag, Brickley

useless MP flyers

Dear Editor, I agree whole-heartedly with Ken Leavens, in his “Dear Member of Parliament” letter. These stupid, almost weekly, opinion-seeking brochures are a blatant waste of taxpayers’ dollars. If the MPs were doing a good job, they wouldn’t need constant affirmation that they are “on the right track.” What I’d like to know is how many thousands of these information-seeking brochures are mailed out at our expense and how many people actually fill them out and mail them back again at our expense? I would bet that the biggest percentage gets filed under “G” for garbage, and that just adds to the landfill problem. But that’s a topic for another day. These brochures are costly, useless and they need to be stopped! Leslie Woof, Codrington

Come out to protest Hydro One on May 13

We would like to help you

PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT

Dear Editor, Yes, people have had it with the Wynne government and their spending. There is a group holding a protest at Queen’s Park on May 13, at noon, and hope anyone fed up with their outrageous hydro bills, unexplained delivery charges and other drummed up charges, tired of increased taxes, show up for this peaceful protest. There are buses arranged to drive us to our destination. If you check Facebook Hydro One Enough is Enough, you’ll get all the info. This province is not the province we know. It is full of corruption with a government leading us into bankruptcy. The taxpayers cannot assume any more increases. We demand that Ms. Wynne, Mr. Chiarelli and the CEO of Hydro One resign before they are tossed in disgrace. In other words, “Gone With the Wynned.” Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Displacement activity

Editorial - “What’s emerging is what we need, which is a comprehensive plan, going after the criminal gangs, going after the traffickers, going after the owners of the boats … and stabilising the countries from which these people are coming.” And when you finished “stabilisGwynne Dyer have ing” Syria, Somalia and Libya, overthrowing the Eritrean dictatorship, and ending poverty in West Africa, could you drop by and fix my plumbing? Oh, and Yemen. Fix Yemen too. “These people” are the 1,300 refugees who drowned in the Mediterranean in the past two weeks, the 30,000 who will drown by the end of this year while trying to cross if nothing more is done–and of course, the estimated half million who will make it safely to Italy, Malta or Greece. The speaker was Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron, but he was just one voice in the European Union choir The EU’s leaders were meeting in emergency session because of a public outcry over all the refugees drowning on the crossing between Libya and Italy. These same leaders were responsible for most of the deaths, because last year they ended a very effective Italian Navy search-and-rescue operation and “replaced” it with an EU operation that had a third of the resources and was not supposed to operate more than 50 kilometres off the Italian coast. So now they had to fix it somehow, but they were all aware that their electorates at home still don’t want millions of migrants flooding into the EU, refugees or not. So they did what politicians do in circumstances like these. They came up with a displacement activity. The problem, it turns out, is not refugees fleeing from places like war-torn Syria and Somalia, from cruel dictatorships like Eritrea, and from impoverished parts of West Africa. It is the evil traffickers–the new slave-traders, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi called them–who lure the migrants away from their homes and charge them $2,000 per person for a place on a leaky boat to Europe. Well, of course. Why would anybody want to leave a nice, safe place like Syria or Somalia unless they had been tricked into it by unscrupulous people-smugglers? So if we just break up those criminal gangs, maybe even go into Libyan territorial waters and destroy their boats before they leave the coast, then the

demand for their services will vanish. Everybody will stay home, and the problem will go away. Wait, sorry, we forgot. We have to “stabilise” their countries too. But THEN the problem really will go away, and we’ll all live happily ever after. Are any of the 28 EU national leaders so naive that they believe this garbage? Of course not. So why are they saying it? Because they, like the people who voted for or against them, are torn between a distaste for seeing innocent people die, and a determination that millions of those innocent people cannot come and live in their countries. So they want to hide what the policy is really about, and displace the blame for its bad effects (namely a lot of people drowning) on somebody else. Racist and hypocritical, you say, with a bit of Islamophobia thrown in. You’re right about the hypocrisy, but for a lot of Europeans the problem really is the numbers. There are millions of people living within 1,500 kilometres of the European Union’s borders who would move there tomorrow if they had the chance, and that’s just the desperate ones who are trying to escape from wars, violent anarchy and extreme repression. Count in all the others who would just like a chance to make a decent living in a place where corruption is relatively low and the law is usually enforced, and you are probably into tens of millions of potential migrants. Most of them are not desperate enough to risk the transMediterranean route. Make it easier and safer, however, and lots of them would come too. There are now close to one billion people living within 2,000 kilometres of the EU’s borders. Thanks to some of the world’s highest population growth rates, that will double in the next 30 years, which virtually guarantees that there will be more civil wars, more failed states and even more refugees. And that’s before you factor in the impact of climate change in the subtropics. The EU’s own population is about 650 million, and it is not growing. So there is deep concern among EU leaders (though many of them don’t want to say it in public) that in ten or twenty years they will be facing illegal migration so massive that it would fundamentally change the cultural identity of European countries. They want to get the new, much tougher policy towards refugees in place now, before the refugees taking the sea route to Europe start coming in even greater numbers, but they don’t want to take responsibility for the deaths that will happen as a result. How to shift the blame? Try this. “It’s not our fault that all those poor people are dying at sea; it’s the fault of the evil people-smugglers.”

It’s tax time. Stop complaining and just pay ’em By Stephen Petrick
 Editorial - April is over. Have you filed your income taxes yet?
If you’re like my wife and I the answer is either “Just got ’em done” or “no.” In an era where most adults have evolving careers and changing families, filing taxes has become complicated. As we head into spring, we’re almost always looking for more than one T4 from various employers we’ve had over the past year, trying to track education-related expenses and figuring out where we stored various miscellaneous receipts.
 Then we think about the perplexing questions to ask our tax guy: Can I write off guitar strings if I was hired to give private lessons? Do tickets to a Toopey and Binoo show count as child care? If I’m writing a Master’s thesis on human misery, can I claim my Toronto Maple Leafs tickets as a research expense?
 I’m no expert on taxes, but my advice to others, based on experience, is to ask your employer to overtax you through the year just to be safe, be anal about keeping receipts and just pay a professional to do your taxes. That way you’re more than likely to get a return at the end. (Unless you’re a rich business tycoon). This world is challenging and cruel so no one should feel guilty about cutting every corner they possibly can to keep as much of their hard-earned money.
 But, when it’s all said and done, I’m also a big believer in refraining from whining about taxes all year long. While I wouldn’t turn down a tax cut if it’s offered to me, I also accept that they’re necessary and our progressive system of taxing people based on what they can afford to pay, makes us one

of the greatest countries in the world.
I’ve always been creeped out by think-tanks like the Fraser Institute which want to privatize everything, and those signs you see on some country roads that say “this land is my land, back off government.” Our tax dollars pay for the roads we drive to work every day, for the schools that raise our children and for the hospitals where our loved ones receive care. And based on the parking fees you have to pay to enter these hospitals, evidently our tax dollars aren’t covering enough.
 It’s somewhat fitting that both the federal and provincial governments released their yearly budgets last week, just days before the deadline for most people to file their income tax. The federal government announced it had finally achieved a balanced budget, meaning that a deficit once as high as $50 billion no longer exists. The Ontario government took measures to reduce its deficit, but it still exists, at around the $10.9 billion mark.
One could argue–well, I suppose a lot of people argue– that these deficits are the result of poor fiscal management. But they also suggest that in recent years, the tax dollars we’ve collectively paid, have not nearly equalled the cost of the types of government services we’ve come to expect.
 It’s been said that in life there are two certain things: death and taxes. (Or wait, maybe it’s three things; the third being the Leafs not winning the Stanley Cup.) But the death of our tax system would mean the death of the society we know. When tax season rolls around,
it’s best to shut up and pay them, no matter how complicated or frustrating they’ve become.

“It looks great and the staff are not twisting and turning. It’s the little things, something moved six inches this way, for example, makes a huge difference as throughout the day they are doing hundreds of transactions,â€? she added. Prior oversees 14 of the more than 300 ServiceOntario offices in Ontario. Her area takes in the region from Brockville to Haliburton and includes Trent Hills. Other centres throughout the province are also being revamped. “For accessibility,â€? she said, “Because a number of them do have higher counters for people standing ‌ so they are looking at revamping with a drop down area for people with accessibility issues not just for people in wheelchairs but for people that can’t stand for a length of time.â€? A drop down counter was created at the centre here. Trent Hills’ Mayor Hector Macmillan was also there for the ribbon cutting. He spoke with The Inde-

nursing staff they work with ‌ I’ve never had any negative feedback, that’s why they love coming here.â€? Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan thanked Smith and her committee for their hard work. Its budget of $60,000, shared equally between the hospital and the municipality, hasn’t changed in years. “We really appreciate what you do,â€? Kelleher-MacLennan said. “Keep up the good work.â€? Noting this is Smith’s tenth year with the committee, Councillor Cathy Redden said the group got off “to a very slow startâ€? in laying “the foundation of what you’re seeing pay off right now.â€? Now, many municipalities “have taken their cues from the work Laurie has done across Ontario,â€? Redden said. “She’s put some very innovative practices in place around recruiting and around bringing in locums and staffing in the emergency.â€? “People don’t realize the amount of work that goes on in the background,â€? Mayor Hector Macmillan said. Smith said she has “a core staffâ€? of about five physicians she calls upon to work in emergency, and about 50 in total, from places such as Kingston, Belleville and Toronto. She recently secured a one-year commitment from a couple–one’s a physician and the other an anesthetist–“so that’s going to help our OR and ER for the next year at least.â€? It also helps the hospital “become less dependent on outside agencies, which is our goal,â€? Smith said.

Tenth annual red carpet gala celebrates business excellence in Trent Hills

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - “It is only fitting to celebrate the tenth annual celebration of Business Excellence with a red carpet gala and treat all our businesses and organizations like the stars that all of you are,” said Jeff Hamilton, president of the Trent Hills and District Chamber of Commerce. He was speaking at the tenth annual red carpet gala, the 2015 Celebration of Business Excellence. A highlight of the evening was the announcement that Steve Sharpe is the recipient of the President’s award. “This award recognizes an individual, company or organization whose involvement in business, professional associations and community service has had an impact on the Trent Hills community. Tonight’s recipient truly embodies the spirit of this award,” Hamilton said. He went on to list Sharpe’s many accomplishments not only for continuing the business his father Bruce started here but for his community involvement from his presidency of the Campbellford Seymour Chamber of Commerce 1988-1989 to his volunteer efforts with the local Rotary Club for more than 30 years to his role as a Rotary at Work representative speak-

ing to groups regarding hiring persons with disabilities, to name a few. Owing to a death in the family he was unable to be at the gala but was presented with the award the previous day at Sharpe’s Food Market where he spoke about his dad “my mentor … who said live here and get involved. “I am very surprised and very honoured,” he added. Ten awards were presented at the gala as well as a special “Inclusive Community Employer award,” sponsored by Community Living Campbellford/Brighton, the organization which selected the recipient. Donna Desjardins, director of support and services with Community Living announced that SleepMed Healthcare Inc. where Julie Web is
the sleep clinic manager would receive the award. Web was unable to attend. The Customer Experience award category had the most nominees, 11 in total, including businesses from Campbellford, Trent River and Warkworth. “Customer service is a very big category. That’s a good thing to have in a small town,” said Fern Julia, a chamber director who helped emcee the gala. The recipient was Bennett’s Home

Furnishings. The other awards included: Excellence in Business (three employees or fewer) sponsored by Welch LLP Caroline’s Organics & Floral Design; Excellence in Business (four employees or more) sponsored by the Trent Hills Independent - Banjo’s Grill; Best Use of Information Technology/Social Jeff Hamilton, left, president of the Trent Hills and District Chamber of Commerce presented Steve Media sponsored by The Community Sharpe with the President’s award.

Butterfly gardeners make the earth greener News - Hastings - It was an Earth Day statement that went beyond collecting litter from roadsides and playgrounds. Students from Hastings Public School did all that but they also planted seeds that will eventually find their way into the school’s magnificent gardens which began with a small butterfly garden which is now in its seventh year and a flourishing, vibrant colourful success story. “Those who started in Senior Kindergarten have done it six years in a row; they’ve seen it grow, they’ve seen their own plants grow when we transfer them out in the fall,” said local horticulturalist and well-known Hastings Village Market vendor Joyce Higgs, who along with her husband Mike, introduced the butterfly garden to HPS. Since that time, the school community has pitched in to create a thoroughly captivating garden in front of the school. The Higgs have deliberately stepped back from the project in recent years to allow the students to take ownership of the garden but they still remain actively involved as resource aids.

With the butterfly garden students learn about the crucial role butterflies, particularly the monarch, play in nature. The Higgs are thrilled that the HPS community, students, staff and parents, have embraced gardening with such enthusiasm. “We started with this tiny little patch behind the school and it’s turned into this perfectly self-maintained garden. It doesn’t need anything from anyone,” said Joyce. Native plants and butterfly attractors like black-eyed Susan and purple coneflower have burst into life in the garden and “just thrive,” she says. They’ve watched as the front garden evolves. “We didn’t have anything to do with the garden in front, that came from inside the school,” said Mike. “But the kids are going to be planting there. They’ve done a really fantastic job on those gardens.” “The school has been incredibly supportive,” Joyce adds. “The parent council has been so eager and enthusiastic working in the garden and making sure students can help out as well.” Mike says its “mind-boggling” to

think some of their original butterfly garden students are now graduating from university. “I know of at least one kid who is going on to horticulture and I’d like to think it was because of getting hooked on what he was doing here,” he said. “We didn’t expect that but that is magical.” “This stuff is really hooking into them. They really catch on with this stuff.” Students have no trouble answering “complicated questions” based on things they’ve learned the year before, he adds. “If you catch somebody when they’re really young and get them interested in gardening, get them interested in the environment it sticks for the rest of their life. That’s definitely the case with these Hastings area resident Joyce Higgs works with students at Hastings Public School as they start seeds kids. We run into them in the supermarket for the school’s flourishing gardens. Photo: Bill Freeman and they come up to us and ask if we’re doing seeds this year. They’re so wrapped up in this; so involved in this.” The Earth Day connection was symbolic, Mike agreed, but he said “this is a little bit more than garbage; this is fixing things up; this is starting things over again.” Many HPS students have created their own gardens at home, the Higgs add.

Horses can help health professionals provide better service to patients

News - Trent Hills - Health care providers who could use some help with their bedside manner might want to spend a couple of days with horses. They make wonderful teachers, says a “facilitated equine experiential learning” (FEEL) specialist who will be holding a two-day workshop on “Medicine and Horsemanship: Transforming the Doctor-Patient Relationship” on her farm near Hastings June 6 and 7. “Horses rely on their senses for survival,” says Susan Andison, owner/ operator of Phoenix Acres. They are “tuned into their environment for any changes that might put them at risk,” and are very sensitive to “people’s energy [and] emotion.” If doctors, nurses, medical students and other health practitioners “can tap into that same intuitive sense,” it will help them better interpret a patient’s “dynamic, body language” and respond accordingly, she said. The workshop Andison and another FEEL facilitator, Jennifer Garland, from Indian River, have planned is designed to help health-care providers “hone their awareness of the subtleties of communication necessary” to have good interactions with patients. “Horsemanship requires an appreci-

Laurie Smith, project manager with the Trent Hills Physician Recruitment and Retention Committee, on the left, took part in a pilot workshop on “Medicine and Horsemanship: Transforming the Doctor-Patient Relationship.” She said she and other participants Susan Redhead, Sarah Gibson, Emilie Beyls and Lawrie Hamilton, were “amazed” by what they learned.

ation of the non-verbal messages that we give to others,” Andison said. “It requires patience, gentleness, selfconfidence and sensitivity, all of which the horses can teach us.” Those traits might have received short shrift in their

training to become doctors. Medical students are “put under a lot of pressure” to deal with facts and follow processes that are logical, rather than focus “some of their energies on developing stronger intuitive senses,” she said.

An “heightened awareness” can enable physicians to recognize when a patient is “receptive to instruction,” she continued. “Sometimes the doctor barges in and gets right down to the facts and the diagnosis and forgets there’s an individual there that may be having a challenging time coping with what’s going on,” she explained. You need a patient who’s “fully present in order to understand what’s happening. “Medicine is about the whole patient, not just the science,” Andison said. Based on founding principles developed by Dr. Beverly Kane, at the Stanford School of Medicine in California, the workshop makes use of exercises that are all on ground, requiring no riding or previous experience with horses. Andison said the same principles taught to health-care professionals “can be applied in many different settings, such as customer service and management, “because where there are people there are always potentially challenging dynamics at play.” A test run was held recently to mimic the real workshop that will take place in June. “The outcome was more than we expected, we were just really amazed,” said

one of the participants, Laurie Smith, project manager with the Trent Hills Physician Recruitment and Retention Committee, who has arranged for the workshop to be held. “I totally didn’t expect to be this impressed, to be this enlightened.” Smith said physicians “need to be attuned” to their patients and while they might have acquired some of that skill during their training or over the course of their career, “there’s always room for improvement.” Patient-centred health

care “is always the goal so anything that enhances that experience for the patient … is all good,” Smith said. Phoenix Acres started out as a rescue facility about eight years ago and later turned into a boarding place for horses. Three years ago Andison got her certification in equine facilitated experiential learning and expanded the farm’s work to include using horses to heal and to teach.

On the day of the consignment sale the gymnasium was filled with vendors. “We have 22 vendors here today plus a table for Kent school,” said Stapley. Each vendor paid $25 to set up and sell their items. “They are mainly moms who are clearing out stuff, doing some spring cleaning,” she added. “It’s all about kids’ toys, games, clothes and baby equipment,” she said with a grin. People were lined up at the school doors waiting for the sale to begin. Sandy said the popularity of the event means the parent council may consider hosting a second consignment sale in September. There will be no new playground equipment until all the money has been raised.

Fire department will get new compressor By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - The Asphodel-Norwood Fire and Rescue Department will replace its 33-year-old air compressor with a nearly new piece of equipment and at a bargain price. The department has a chance to buy a four-year-old compressor from industrial goods and service supplier Century Vallen for $6,500 which includes a $1,000 trade-in of their current compressor which Asphodel-Norwood Fire and Rescue acquired from the Peterborough Fire Department in 1999. The township will fund $2,500 of the purchase with the Asphodel-Norwood Firefighter’s Association chipping in $4,000. The current compressor was 18 years Please see “Fire” on page 21

“The old one is still up there and it will be taken down in the summer,” said Stapley. The new equipment is a multiuse unit with slides and climbing apparatus. “The reason that we’re doing this today is our playground structure will be taken out in the summer because it has been deemed unsafe,” added Samantha Larmer who is a Grade 2/3 teacher who has been at the school for the past 13 years. She was helping at the consignment sale. “The kids really miss the slide so we chose one with several slides and a climbing part,” she added.

At the same time, Chief Payne says Century Vallen told him that they had just taken in a four-year-old compressor that had just received a compressor “from a small department much like ours.� The compressor was bought brand new and had just 46 working hours of use to it. “They can sell it to us for $7,500,� he said, adding that they were prepared to give the Fire and Rescue Department $1,000 for the old compressor. Reserve funds can be used to fund the municipal portion of the purchase price. Century Vallen will honour all warranties, Chief Payne said. “Installation and shipping is included in the price. Wiring is not,� he added. “Asphodel-Norwood has the first chance to obtain the compressor then it will be placed on the open market.� “It’s a win-win situation for us,� Deputy-mayor Rodger Bonneau said tabling a motion to approve the acquisition of the new compressor.

old when it arrived from the PFD, Asphodel-Norwood Fire Chief Daryl Payne said. It failed two Standards Council of Canada air tests in March and passed a third only after it underwent a “total maintenance� overhaul on the system. Chief Payne said it was, to his knowledge, the first time the air compressor has failed a test. The compressor is used to supply and maintain air bottles that firefighters use and has also been used by fire departments in Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and Douro-Dummer as well as the Eastern Ontario Fire Training Academy to fill bottles when needed. HBM has since acquired its own compressor. The compressor is tested every six months by the department and a certified testing agency, Chief Payne said. The filters are changed at the same time. Before the most recent test and maintenance program done by Century Vallen Chief Payne was told that it would cost at least $10,000 to completely rebuild the

News - Havelock - Nearly a year ago the TD Canada Trust mobile bank was a popular attraction at Celebrate Havelock with visitors getting a glimpse of some of the services the unit can bring to a community during an emergency. One year later, the mobile branch is back in Havelock travelling from Milton to help TD Canada Trust clients with their banking needs following the collapse of the adjacent Amazing Dollar Store roof.

Team Green helps with Havelock cleanup By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - Team green pitched in big time to help with Havelock’s annual community cleanup. A large group of generation-spanning residents took to the streets Saturday morning to cap Earth Week activities that included litter-collecting efforts from students and groups of neighbours. It was the largest community cleanup gathering in a number of years. “This is one of the best gatherings we’ve had in years,� village ward Councillor Barry Pomeroy noted. “We’ve got a lot of younger people and I guess they believe in Earth Day. I’m really pleased.� Pomeroy said there are more people who are “con-

scious of garbage along roadsidesâ€? and noted that some regular walkers make a point of picking up litter during their exercise routines. “It all helps,â€? he says. “The reason I like this is that it gets people together.â€? Public education remains a big part of the community cleanup and Pomeroy says that individual efforts to keep the township litter-free should be an everyday occurrence. “The three R’s are sinking in with a lot of people. When we ďŹ rst started [this] it was still throw it out the window. When we ďŹ rst started we could ďŹ ll a half-ton and not go very far. It’s good when it’s hard to ďŹ nd garbage.â€?

News - Norwood - The Community Friends of Norwood District High School gave public school board trustees additional food for thought the night the Kawartha Pine Ridge District Board released its low enrollment secondary school report. The report discusses decreasing secondary enrollment which has resulted in a loss of 3,200 students since 2000-2001 mirroring a “similar reality� with boards across the province. Key to the report is information gleaned from a series of focus group meetings held at a number of high schools including NDHS and Camp-

bellford District High School this year with demographic and enrollment projections and public feedback on what students, parents and teachers think are priorities “critical to the educational experienceâ€? in their school communities. “School boards across our province are struggling with the challenges associated with enrollment decline,â€? says KPR chair Cathy Abraham. “For our students the difďŹ culty lies in ensuring we provide an equitable and rich education program that meets their needs. “We wanted to speak to these school communities and hear from them the local

issues these smaller schools are experiencing,� Abraham said. The Community Friends presentation was a reminder of what NDHS has been doing to address its obvious low enrollment dilemma. NDHS has experienced a 44 per cent enrollment decrease in 15 years, from 528 to 296, with a projected enrollment of 282 in 2023-2024. With declining numbers there’s also an underutilization of space with only 43.4 per cent of the building being used. The school also sees fewer of its eligible 14- to 17-year-olds attending NDHS with 80 per cent going to the school in 2009-2010 but 11 per cent fewer in 2013-2014. “We are very proud of the robust and vibrant learning opportunities in existence at NDHS,� group chair Verna Shackleton and secretary Bernadette Vanderhorst told the board. They pointed to a long list of extra-curricular activities, strong academics, high skills majors and dual credit programming with Fleming College. The group reiterated the need for a serious discussion about bringing Grades 7 and 8 student back to NDHS which would provide more staff and provide a boost to extracurricular opportunities. They reminded the board of its own visits to Upper Canada and Bluewater School Districts, two school boards which utilize Kindergarten to Grade 12 models extensively and effectively. Those visits were summarized at length in the low enrollment report. “We have been receiving positive

feedback about this [K to 12] opportunity,â€? Shackleton said. Partnering for off-site alternative learning opportunities in Havelock and Norwood is another idea the group advocates in support of continuing education. Expanding the community hub concept at NDHS is another initiative championed by the group, one that dovetails with the Minister of Education’s “mandate letterâ€? which urges school boards to “build better ties between municipalities and other community organizations.â€? The group also continues to lobby for a high skills major program in agriculture, an idea supported by Minister of Agriculture Jeff Leal. CDHS long-term projections are “relatively stableâ€? although its numbers have declined 30 per cent in ten years. Currently it has 507 students and is expected to hover at between 450 and 500 by 2025. The KPR report will be used to help with its long-term accommodation plan later this spring. “Our plan will consider not just our lower enrollment secondary schools but all our facilities, possible areas of future growth and expansion as well as possible future consolidations,â€? director of education Rusty Hick said. “It looks like they have to be making some decisions fairly soon so we are moving on to a written submission of all of our ideas,â€? says Shackleton. “The ďŹ nancial crunch from the ministry will force them to make some decisions soon.â€?

Privacy policy strictly enforced at Campbellford Memorial Hospital By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - To date there has been no breach of confidentiality at Campbellford Memorial Hospital. Staff member Sandra Beatty made a presentation to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Board at a recent regular meeting on their privacy policy updating them on the in-house program. It was one of two education sessions held that evening. The other was Susan Redhead, director of human resources, who spoke about the hospital’s Occupational Health and Safety Program. She provided an update on legislation and said, “We are actually ahead of the curve,” noting that the hospital is always focusing on prevention and training. “We have a very active internal health and safety program and active and vibrant health and safety committee,” she told the board. Both presentations provided insight and information for board members. “It’s not just about health records it’s also all information

stored,” said Beatty, who talked about the hospital’s privacy policy. She also performs the duties of the Freedom of Information co-ordinator at the hospital. Beatty told the board that there had been three requests for information last year. She also made reference to the privacy breaches that made the news that occurred at both the Peterborough Regional Health Centre (between 2011 and 2012) and Rouge Valley Hospital (between 2009 and 2013).

An article in the Toronto Star in February reported that the Ontario Court of Appeal has granted patients the right to sue hospitals over privacy breaches. “Audits are legislated and every hospital is doing them,” Beatty told the board. “I do these audits monthly [to detect privacy breaches] and I also run them on high profile patients including members of the community and staff, high-profile cases,” she said. Please see “Privacy” on page 25

Some audits are done at the request of a patient and by the privacy ofďŹ cer as part of the regular audit at the hospital, she explained. As well statistical reporting to the Information and Privacy Commissioner’s ofďŹ ce which includes the number of access requests, (including the number granted or declined), number of breaches and number of requests for corrections to health information (and those granted or declined) is mandatory annually. Beatty said that although CMH does not have a complete Electronic Medical Record (EMR), “initiatives are takenâ€? as well, for physical security of records. She pointed out that Campbellford hospital’s on-call roster has a manager available whom staff can reach in case of a privacy breach or the potential for a privacy breach. She told the board that The Public Hospitals Acts deals with retention and destruction of health records, including diagnostic imaging reports and images. “The introduction of voice recognition with electronic signature at time of reporting by the radiologist has not only signiďŹ cantly reduced turn-around time for reporting, but has also signiďŹ cantly reduced the number of reports that require electronic signature before being forwarded to a physician’s ofďŹ ce for patient care,â€? she said. “We have not had a breach of conďŹ dentiality at CMH,â€? she concluded.

Norwood skaters wrap up banner year Photos: Bill Freeman

Receiving the first ever Norwood and District Skating Club bursaries were Annika Vanderhorst, Holly Redden and Taylor Pedersen. Making the presentation were coaches Bernadette Vanderhorst and Leeanne Decker. The bursaries will be used to help defray the costs of taking a three-day Canskate coaches certification clinic.

The club’s 77 skaters had much to celebrate including a superb carnival, a multitude of awardwinning performances at a variety of competitions, a Skate Canada gold dance certificate to veteran skater Annika Vanderhorst and the presentation of the first-ever NDSC bursaries. “It’s been busy and great to watch young children grow in their skating careers,� outgoing club president Cindy Chamberlain said. “It’s lovely to see them progress and staying with the club year after year.� That’s meant growth in the intermediate and senior divisions, Chamberlain says, and new faces in the pre-Canskate and Canskate programs. Chamberlain says the club is particularly pleased to initiate the bursary program to help three of its senior skaters, Taylor Pedersen, Holly Redden and Annika Vanderhorst, complete a three-day

Canskate coaching certification course which will see them coach with the club for at least one year. “It was so nice to know that they asked, ‘what if we went and did this and can we coach with the club?’ It’s a great thing to do.� The course is not cheap at $400 and Norwood District High School has also provided some funding for the athletes. The trio is setting outstanding examples for younger skaters, says Chamberlain, and have shown their devotion to the club. They’re pleased they want to remain with the club and coach even as they embark on post-secondary school studies. The club’s coaches “have made this club what it is for those girls. They love coming to this club because of their coaches. We are so grateful we have who we have,� she said of coaches Leeanne Decker, Bernadette Vanderhorst, Jennifer Vanderploeg and Kyle

Stickwood. This is Chamberlain’s second two-year stint as president; she filled the post after the NDSC went one season with the position vacant. “I couldn’t see it do that again so I stepped in.� She will be succeeded by Penny Buchanan. “We have a wonderful executive team but we always need more.� There will some openings “so we need to increase our numbers again.� Anyone who is interested to attend the May 12 annual general meeting at Asphodel Fire Trucks, she said. They can be a general member for however long they want and “come and give opinion and suggestions that will better our club.� “They don’t have to take a specific thing until they’re ready and hopefully they will.�

Taylor Pedersen (senior), Belle McNiece (Canskate) and Ashley Vanderhorst (intermediate) shared the Cathy Ireland Memorial Award for the most enthusiastic skater.

Bank of Montreal Spirit of Skating Awards were presented to Margot Walsh, Canskater of the Year, and Canskate champions Lyndsay Jordan and Lily May Whaley.

Sicker, Connelly win David Andrew bursaries

Sports - Norwood - Kara Sicker and Nick Connelly are co-recipients of the Norwood District Minor Sports David Andrew Memorial bursary. The two were honoured during the annual NDMS awards ceremony Sunday. The award honours the legacy of former Hornets player and referee David Andrew who passed away suddenly in 2007. Kara played for the Peewee and Atom Hornets and when Norwood was unable to form a girls’ team joined the Keene Wolverines where she continued to play hockey. She has also worked for NDMS as a timekeeper for two seasons and assisted in training new timekeepers for the organization. Kara will study kinesiology at Laurier University this fall. Nick is a 14-year minor hockey veteran and played goal for the Midget Hornet AE’s this past season. He is a dedicated community volunteer as well as a soccer referee. Last year he travelled on a mission trip to the Honduras where he helped build a school and assisted orphans. This fall he will attend Trent University in the honours science (chemistry) program. Both recipients are strong community and school leaders.

Havelock Express gives local ball a lift

By Bill Freeman

Sports - Havelock - House league softball will return to the Havelock ball diamond this summer. At least 46 children have signed up to participate in the program which will run twice a week (Thursdays and Sundays) at the park with a tentative start-up date of May 7 depending on the conditions of the field. The league, for children ages five to nine, will run until June 28 with games on Thursday from 6 to 7 p.m. and Sundays from 10 until 11 a.m. Organizer Cheryl Levesque says 37 youngsters signed up during a two-day registration and those numbers have grown. In a letter to council Levesque says there has been interest from a local sponsor who would like to support jerseys for the Express, a name selected based on online posts from local residents. The Express team logo will include a softball and train, linking the youth softball program with Havelock’s historic connection to the railroad. Township council was thrilled to learn of the league’s start-up and success in recruiting players and has agreed to waive the ball diamond rental fee this

summer to help the program get on its feet. “This will help keep the costs down for registration as we need to buy insurance and any equipment needed as well as any other costs that arise,” Levesque said. The organization would like to hold an end-of-season tourney sometime in July and would also like to give out medallions to players. “People were so happy to hear that baseball was going to be offered in town,” Levesque said. “I think it’s a great idea,” said Deputymayor Jim Martin. Martin said that when his daughters were young there was a house league program. “It was a good thing [but] they just ran out of volunteers and it kind of dissolved,” he said. “Personally, I think this is a great thing to get going again for the kids and hopefully it sticks this time and lasts for a lot of years.” Councillor Hart Webb says the league welcomes anyone who wants to help out and encouraged volunteers to step forward. All they need to do is call 705778-7250.

Former Brighton Highlander now the piper for sentries at war memorial By John Campbell

News - Ottawa - Every hour between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. the two sentries at the National War Memorial in Ottawa leave their post, and another pair takes their place. The sentries “reinforce Canada’s commitment to remember and honour all of those who have served,” says Lieutenant David Lewis, public affairs officer for the National Sentry Program at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The tomb, which holds the remains an unidentified Canadian soldier who died in France during World War I, “is our most iconic and visible reminder of the service and sacrifice of members of our military.” The ceremonial changing of the sentries is accompanied by the playing of marches on the bagpipes. That duty is currently being handled by a former member of the award-winning Brighton Legion Highlanders, Corporal Conor Cooper, who’s now a member of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders of Canada. “I joined the military to serve Canada and as a musician to play an important ceremonial role within the army,” Cooper said in an article prepared by Lewis for local distribution. Being able to represent his regiment at the National War Memorial in Ottawa “is a great honour. “This experience has really helped me gain a deeper respect and admiration for those who have served and sacrificed for this country.” Members of the Royal Canadian Navy, the Canadian Army, and the Royal Canadian Air Force are selected to be sentries for a four-week rotation, Lewis said in an interview, but “pipers Corporal Conor Cooper, of Brighton, has been piping in and out sentries at the National War Memorial in Ottawa since the National Sentry Program resumed operations earlier this month. Here he escorts are on a little different schedule.” the changing of the sentries at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Photo: Lieutenant David Lewis

“Think twice before you flush” message of student proposal

News - Brighton - The next time you’re about to toss some crumpled up facial tissue or paper towel in the toilet, reconsider. “Think twice before you flush,” says Holly Tetzlaff. “Toilets are not garbage cans.” But that’s how people use them, said the Grade 9 student at East Northumberland Secondary School, sending cat litter, medicine, dental floss, and grease down the tube, along with facial tissue and paper towels. Personal wipes alone are costing Canadian taxpayers $250 million a year because they clog the sewers, according to the Municipal Enforcement Sewer Use Group. “Human waste and toilet paper are the only items that should be flushed,” said Tetzlaff, who has made it her goal “to develop good lifelong flushing habits” among children in primary grades that will also set a good example for families to follow at home. The five people judging the fifth annual Caring For Our Watersheds competition thought so highly of her proposed educational campaign they awarded her

first place among the six finalists and the top prize of $1,000. Tetzlaff said she planned to make a red fish logo, signifying the link between household wastewater, treatment plants and the watershed, as a reminder to people to think before they flush. She included a video in her presentation at the competition final held April 22 at the Timber Ridge Golf Course that showed how quickly toilet tissue disintegrates in water, unlike the other paper products and dental floss. A total of 38 proposals from 82 students were received from six participating schools: Kent Public School, St. Mary’s Catholic Elementary School, Brighton Public School, Murray Centennial Public School, Roseneath Centennial Public School, and ENSS. The competition was sponsored by Lower Trent Conservation and Agrium Inc., which again provided the funding for prize money as well $10,000 to implement the student finalists’ ideas. The students’ schools also received money that matched what they won. Others to place in the top six were: second - Alyssa West, Josee Stephens, St. Mary’s, $900; third - Mason Demczyna,

Max Towers, Murray Centennial, $800; fourth - Kole Tromp, Murray Centennial, $700; fifth - Mindy Morrison, Scarlett Cole, Murray Centennial, $600; sixth Melissa Lajoie, Makayla Mior, Chloe Weidenborner, Murray Centennial, $500. Lower Trent CAO Glenda Rodgers explained Caring For Our Watersheds is an international program where students from Canada, the United States, Argentina and Australia research their local watershed, identify environmental concerns, and come up with realistic solutions that can be implemented. Agrium, which produces and distributes fertilizers and agricultural products worldwide, sponsors the youth education program because it understands “that taking care of the world requires more than simply talking about it; it calls for stewardship and a lighter footprint.” Campbellford native Mike Wilson was president and CEO of Agrium when he asked Lower Trent to introduce the program locally, cutting a personal cheque for $50,000 to run it for four years. He donated another $15,000 “so that we could run the program again this year and has offered matching funds for any funding we can raise to run the program for two

more years,” Rodgers said. “Hopefully after that, we will be self-sufficient. We have initiated a fundraising program, so please spread the word.” Student proposals that have been implemented in the past include battery

drop off boxes and recycling cans in Brighton, shoreline planting in Hastings, and dog waste bag dispensers across the watershed. “We’ve seen less dog waste around so they are working,” Rodgers said.

Sentry program in its second year Continued from page B1

Some remain for the summer while others, like the 23-yearold Cooper, are there for just a month. This is the second year for the National Sentry Program, which officially started last August. Cooper, who graduated from East Northumberland Secondary School in 2009, went to Brock University and then University of Western Ontario for graduate studies in music performance. He joined the reserves two years ago, after passing an audition. He learned the basics of being a soldier and was then assigned a ceremonial guard

role. “It’s a very important duty, escorting sentries to the tomb,” he said. “There’s so much piping history in the military, from the Victoria Cross winners to pipers who have led troops into battle. It’s obviously a great privilege to be a part of it.” Cooper, the son of Gary and Lori Cooper in Brighton, said the experience has been “very enjoyable” and he’s met a lot of people. He will continue with the military for the summer; after that, it’s on to “the great job hunt.” Lewis said there’s been no change in the sentries’ routine

since last October 22 when Corporal Nathan Cirillo, 24, was fatally shot while on honorary guard at the National War Memorial. Cirillo was also a reservist with the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. His killer, Michael ZehafBibeau, was shot to death hours later in an exchange of gunfire inside the main Parliament building. Lewis said stanchions like those seen in a bank have been added “to keep the public back a little bit” and the Ottawa police force does “have a presence on the plaza where the memorial” is that it didn’t have before.

Campbellford Lioness Club hosts 15th annual community health forum services the organization provides. Based in Peterborough the centre is one of 14 CCACs that work in communities across Ontario to connect people with quality in-home and community-based health care. “We make sure our patients receive the care they need when they need it,” she said. “The best gift you can give your family is to let them know what you would like … your life can change on a dime,” she added. The Central East CCAC has seven branches including one in Campbellford. The third speaker was Kim Barry, regional manager for Central East and Thunder Bay family support services with ALS Canada. Travelling from Oshawa for the forum she talked about the emotional and financial stressors people face when coping with ALS. “There are 17 clients in this community,” she noted. “We provide support for those clients on their journey.” Barry talked about the ALS fundraising walk to be held in Peterborough on May 9. “Fifty per cent of our walk money goes to client services,” she said. These services include providing critical medical equipment that can cost thousands of dollars.

“Our goal is that ALS is no longer a terminal illness but a treatable illness,” she said. “When you get a disease like this all your choices are taken away from you. We want to give people hope.” A question and answer session followed. Eileen Perkins, whose first husband Alan Cole died of the disease at the age of 51, less than four years after his diagnosis, asked about concussions as a contributing factor. Her husband was a cyclist who represented Canada in the Commonwealth Games in Vancouver. Dr. Finlayson replied that concussions might be a risk factor but other factors also include military service and exposure to pesticides. “Concussions may have some association with ALS but it is not very strong,” she said A highlight was a $500 cheque presentation to ALS by the Lioness Club. Linda Milne, whose sister-in-law Marlene Milne died of ALS, was included in the ceremony and she will be participating in the ALS walk. The cheque was presented in memory of Marlene Milne and Bryce Chrysler, who also died recently of ALS and whose family was also in the audience. “Bryce raised a lot of money for ALS,” said his mom, Doreen Holmden.

The dance, with Bentwood Rocker, is open to the public as well. The weekend concludes with a five-kilometre Fun Run/Walk Sunday morning on the ENSS track for alumni and community members. A pancake breakfast will be served in the cafeteria. “Generally speaking we’re pleased with the way things are developing and we’re looking forward to a really good reunion,” Bird said.

News - Campbellford - A rare disease that was the focus of the fundraising “ice bucket challenge” which went viral last year and resulted in an unexpected $17.1 million windfall for ALS Canada, was the subject of the 15th annual community health forum hosted recently by the Campbellford Lioness Club. Fifty-two people attended the evening event which featured three guest speakers who talked about amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Dr. Olga Finlayson, a neurologist at Peterborough Regional Health Centre for the past two years, was the keynote speaker. In a PowerPoint presentation she provided information about the disease, symptoms and progression, diagnosis and treatment. The prevalence of ALS is four in 100,000 population, noted Finlayson. “I have made, unfortunately, several diagnoses of ALS,” Finlayson told the Trent Hills Independent. “This disease is not very common but it is pretty devastating so it is good to make people familiar with this and give them information.” Sheri McKeen, community education and outreach representative with the Central East Community Care Access Centre (CECCAC), talked about the

The Good Earth: A cedar by another name

Dan Clost By Dan Clost

Lifestyles - When is a cedar not a cedar? When it’s a thuja (thoo yah), of course. We just call it a cedar. Here is the Oxford Dictionary’s definition of a thuja: An evergreen coniferous tree of a genus that includes the western red cedar. Dirr’s Manual of Woody Landscape Plants has an extensive explanation of the genus as well as a very long list of cultivars. While “cedar” is the most commonly used term, e.g. black cedar, white cedar, most architectural drawings, nursery order sheets, etc. will use

the term “thuja.” There are six genera, two native to North America and four to eastern Asia. The story goes that when our forebears arrived on this continent, thuja was completely unknown to them so they named it after the plant they thought it most resembled, cedar. We can handle that idea fairly easily, Gentle Reader, but it is what has happened over the years that has caused many a mix-up. We understand that white cedar is really not a cedar and we can easily wrap our minds around the idea that western red cedar is, also, not a cedar. In fact, it is Thuja plicata. What do you think is the specific epithet for eastern red cedar? If you thought T. rubra I’d give you bonus points but you’d be wrong. It actually is Juniperus virginiana. Yep, it is not a cedar, it is not even a thuja, it is a juniper! It’s a wonder that our forebears didn’t call crows, ravens, starlings and blackbirds, all blackbirds. I have one more bit of confusing information to toss into the mix. Eastern white cedar is Thuja “occidentalis.” We

have that cleared up; but, “occident” is the Latin word for “west.” So how come western red cedar isn’t called T. occidentalis? A long time ago, somebody asked me how I could remember all of those incredibly long “Latin” names for the plants. While most of the naming boffins will take umbrage with me for this because they believe the taxonomy makes perfect sense (to them), I confess that I learned each name individually in self-defense. Whatever we want to call them, thujas are the most popular choice for a coniferous hedge. T. occidentalis, white cedar, prefers shallow moist soils usually with a limestone base and, oddly enough, sphagnum bogs. “Oddly enough” because the latter is acidic and limestone is at the other end of the pH spectrum. That noted, this adaptable chappie will grow just about anywhere it is planted as long as it has enough water and food. Farrar’s book, Trees In Canada, lists companion trees as silver maple, eastern white pine, eastern hemlock, black ash, yellow birch and

white elm. (Yes I did note the five colours mentioned in those names but if you think I’m going to discuss them now, you’ve got another think coming, GR!) This is one of the most useful aspects of Trees in Canada. By looking at the companion plants you get a compatible ensemble to fill out a design. Not only does this tell you which plants perform well in the same conditions, it allows you to design for a particular environment, which ultimately husbands natural resources. When properties were much larger than most are now, there was plenty of room for a white cedar hedge. As a species, these trees would top 60 feet and spread out 15 feet. Modernday conditions, urban or suburban environment, compacted and lifeless soils, and city pollution, has knocked them down a titch to about 45 feet. Over the past decades, two cultivars have gained prominence. Thuja occidentalis “Nigra,” with its darker colouring, and which tops out around 25 feet and

between five and ten feet wide, is slowly replacing the old standby–at least on the plant lists of designers. T. occidentalis “Pyramidalis” does stretch up to 30 feet but only grows around six feet wide. Both are excellent substitutions for old whitey. However, with property lots becoming much smaller, especially in the situation of attached units with “bull pens” instead of backyards, there are an additional two cultivars to consider. “Holmstrup” is the more affordable, with a height and spread of eight feet by three feet. Degroot’s spire will squeeze into a nine-foot by two-foot space (without pruning), has very interesting fern-like leaves but does have sticker shock. However, it’s like buying tools where the maxim is, “Buy the best you can afford.” Degroot’s is the best. Emerald cedars, T.occidentalis “Smaragd,” aka emerald cedar, should be considered a specimen tree at best with requirements similar to a Japanese maple. It is easily the most overused and misused thuja.

Crawford: Family of Champions book launch and movie screening to be held at Empire Theatre

The Crawford family, seen in this 1964 family photo, is the subject of Crawford: Family of Champions, a film and book produced by Aaron Bell. Photo: Submitted

Entertainment - Belleville For more than half a century, the Crawford family name has been synonymous with the City

of Belleville. Floyd Crawford helped put Belleville on the international hockey map when he captained the Belleville

McFarlands to the World Hockey Championship in 1959. Three of his nine children went on to play in the National Hockey League and all of them made significant contributions to the city on and off the ice. Crawford: Family of Champions is the book and DVD written and produced by local author and filmmaker Aaron Bell. It tells the story of the Crawford family, including Marc Crawford’s incredible Stanley Cup win with the Colorado Avalanche and Lou Crawford guiding his hometown Belleville Bulls to their only Ontario Hockey League championship. The book and DVD will be officially released during a special screening event at the Empire

Theatre in downtown Belleville on Thursday, May 14, starting at 7:30 p.m. Several members of the Crawford family will be in attendance at the event and will participate in a question and answer session after the viewing of the film. “This is a great opportunity for us to celebrate the Crawford family and the many contributions that they have made to our community,” Bell said. “I’m very proud to have been given the opportunity to help tell their remarkable story and how they helped shape the spirit of our community.” Crawford: Family of Champions was originally produced to be screened at Belleville’s Downtown

DocFest in February. The screening at the Belleville Library was completely full and many people were turned away at the door. “We knew then that we needed to show the movie again–ideally at the Empire Theatre, where everyone that wanted to enjoy the film would be able to,” Bell said. “This event will allow us to do that as well as officially launch the book and DVD.” The screening and DVD will include an updated version of the movie from the one that was screened at Downtown DocFest. There is an additional 20 minutes of interviews and footage in this edition that will provide viewers with even more insight into the incredible story

of the Crawford family. The book includes many additional stories that aren’t in the film. Pre-orders of the book and DVD are available for $50 online at <www. familyofchampions.ca> and anyone that pre-orders their copy by May 11 will receive two free tickets to the book launch and movie screening event at the Empire Theatre on Thursday, May 14. Pre-orders can also be made at the Belleville Club during their business hours or by contacting Aaron Bell. Remaining tickets for the book launch and movie screening will be available at the door at the Empire Theatre on Thursday, May 14. Tickets are $10.50 for adults and $8 for seniors and children.

TRAVEL

My inspirational, touching encounter with Johnny Cash’s youngest sister

At the graveside of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash in the Hendersonville Memory Gardens. By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - I recently returned from a press trip to Tennessee, where I was gathering materials for future travel pieces. One of the “special moments” on this particular trip was a visit to the Hendersonville Memory Gardens, where I visited the gravesites of Johnny and June Carter Cash; I learned the two of them passed away just four months apart. I also met his youngest sister there, Joanne Cash Yates, and I thought it was so gracious and touching of her to meet us at the gravesite. She told us some background information about her “Big Brother” who she loved so much and who “always took care” of her. As we listened, she confessed that both she and Johnny went through

some very “dark days” in their early years, including marriages that ended in divorces, and struggles with addiction problems. However, she confided that “they both finally got it right with the Lord,” and it turned their lives around. She said June Carter Cash was instrumental in “setting Johnny on the right path,” and he finally got up the courage to propose to her while on stage in Canada (in London, Ontario). They were married in Franklin, Kentucky, in 1968. He also rediscovered his Christian faith, taking an “altar call” in a small church in the Nashville area where the pastor was the Reverend Jimmie Rodgers Snow, son of Canadian country music superstar Hank Snow. Joanne went on to tell us that she “gave her

heart to Jesus” in 1970, and she began her brand new life. She discovered her musical calling, got involved in singing at church, and then sang at the Grand Ole Opry. She met Dr. Harry Yates, a pastor, and they married in 1971, and they dedicated their lives to full-time preaching and gospel singing as they travelled throughout North America for about the next 15 years. I met Joanne’s husband, too, and when I gave my usual answer to this American about where I lived in Canada, “just east of Toronto,” he asked me if I meant Whitby or Ajax or Oshawa, so he was certainly knowledgeable about this area of our province; I told him I was from the Belleville area, and he said that they had been there on one of their preaching tours several years ago, and that they had liked the area very much. After all those years on the road, Joanne and Harry returned to the Nashville area and began the Nashville Cowboy Church, which features lots of country gospel music. Joanne is one of the singers at every Sunday morning service, and her husband fits in a “seven-minute sermon” during this fastpaced, interdenominational service. It’s held in Nashville’s Texas Troubadour Theatre, which is located directly across from the Opryland Hotel. It’s also broadcast into 110 countries via WSM Radio, Sirius/XM Satellite

Radio, and WWCR (World Wide Country Radio). Both Joanne and Harry were proudly wearing Johnny Cash T-shirts as they stood by the grave that amazing day, and Joanne then sang a song about “losing a friend” as she gazed down at Johnny’s grave. She then had us join in on the singing of one of her and Johnny’s favourite gospel songs, Amazing Grace, and it was, indeed, a “special” moment. It seemed very meaningful and genuine. We then went to lunch together at the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Café in nearby Gallatin, Tennessee, where we learned of the many gospel albums Joanne has recorded, as well as receiving even more tidbits about their early childhood years. Joanne told us the Cash family originally lived in Arkansas, and there were seven children. She said John began working in the cotton fields at the age of five, where he apparently loved to sing while working. I was

also told that some floods in this area inspired Johnny to eventually write the song Five Feet High and Rising. She also remembered they had a batterypowered radio in their home, and they spent many hours listening to gospel music. One of the travel writers in our group asked Joanne about her opinion about the film about Johnny entitled Walk the Line, and she said she thought it was quite good, but that Hollywood had

made her dad seem crueler than he was. Joanne said, “Daddy wasn’t mean like that.” After this intriguing, informative visit with Joanne and Harry, I was now determined to find out even more about Johnny Cash, so I checked out the Johnny Cash Museum and the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, both located in downtown Nashville. Johnny, “The Man in Black,” would traditionally stroll onto the stage and begin a performance by simply saying “Hello, I’m Johnny Cash.” He’d then begin singing some of his well-known hits, including Folsom Prison Blues, Man in Black, Ring of Fire and I Walk the Line. I also learned he’d appeared in several movies and had his own television show. Indeed, there was lots of information available about Johnny Cash. If you’re planning a trip to Nashville, you might want to check these out for yourself. You might even decide to visit the Nashville Cowboy Church or the Hendersonville Memory Gardens, too.

Prince Edward County duo take talent title

Prince Edward County band Instant Rivalry (Caleb and Megan Hutton) took the grand championship at the Next Country Music Star Talent Search and will appear on stage at this summer’s 26th annual Havelock Country Jamboree. By Bill Freeman

Search and when the final chord was played on grand championship night at The Ranch Resort in Bethany the dynamic Prince Edward County

brother and sister duo Instant Rivalry walked away with the crown. The victory gives Caleb and Megan Hutton a showcase spot on stage at the 26th annual Havelock Country Jamboree along with the second- and third-place finishers Henry Norwood and the James Barker Band. The Next Country Music Start Talent Search was a joint effort between The Ranch Resort and the Havelock Country Jamboree and brought together 32 outstanding performers over a series of weeks with winners and wild cards advancing to a semi-final round and eventually a grand championship night featuring six groups. Also appearing on stage in the finals were Jamie Stever, Kaitlin Kozell and Kansas Stone along with special guest performances by Jamie Spurvey, Cameron VanCreigem and Jessica Wedden. A panel of notable industry names– Bruce Good of The Good Brothers, Tony Tarleton, manager of Maple Music Recordings/Fontana North, Mike Denny, president of MDM Records and Trevor Lamas, national promotions manager for Sony Music Canada–had a tough but musically enjoyable night ahead of them. “It was the best show yet,” said Jennifer Goheen of the Havelock Country Jamboree, who had a stint on the judge’s panel earlier in the competition. “There were so many talented acts each night. It truly was very difficult to determine the winners. We had to let so many go; it was a very tough decision.” Goheen said the record label judge’s

comments were “outstanding. “They said it was the best run and best talent show they had ever come across of this nature,” she said. Instant Rivalry will take the Jamboree stage on August 14; Henry Norwood, a 16-year-old out of Perth, Ontario, who wowed judges and spectators with his acoustic guitar traditional country solo stylings, will be on stage August 16 just before Grammy Award winner Rhonda Vincent; the James Barker Band was the first band to get called back for an encore performance during the preliminary rounds, will be on stage August 14 before Instant Rivalry. Caleb and Megan started playing together as Instant Rivalry (IR) while attending high school. The Highway, a song off their first album, spent nine weeks on the independent charts reaching number two on the

international charts and receiving international radio play. The duo has toured Canada opening for big names like The Trews, Jefferson Starship, Honeymoon Suite and Sarah Cripps. They have spent time in Nashville and are members of the Nashville Song-writing Association International. Instant Rivalry also wins a TW JF Tanglewood Java Series guitar from The Guitar Boutique. Prizes also include mentoring time with industry professionals, professional photo packages, and a one-day studio session worth $5,000 at Metalworks Recording Studio . The second- and third-place winners will also appear at the Marmora Fall Jamboree and the RPM Recreation and Performance Motor Show.

Competition over, concert to come By Richard Turtle

Entertainment - Stirling The 65th Annual Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise wrapped up on Tuesday at St. Paul’s United Church with several top performers scheduled to return to the stage for the upcoming Stars of the Festival concert. Featuring classes primarily for children and youth, the multi-disciplinary competition provides opportunities for musicians and orators of all ages to practise their skills in front of an audience and for a professional adjudicator. Organized by the Stirling Festival Committee in conjunction with the Official Board of St. Paul’s United

Church, the competition’s stated objective “is not to gain a prize, but to promote a love of Sacred Praise, especially among boys, girls and young people.” For nearly two weeks, beginning on April 19, classes were held at both St. Paul’s and the Stirling Festival Theatre in various disciplines including voice, piano, violin and scripture as well as categories for bands and choirs. Adjudicators assigned to the different classes are all specialists in their fields and provided encouragement, advice and comments to competitors following each section. They were also responsible for marking and ranking the

performers. On the recommendation of the adjudicator, performers may also be eligible for provincial competition as a result of their performances. As well, several participants who placed at the top of their class have been invited to perform for the public again in the Stars of the Festival concert on Friday, May 8, at 7 p.m. at St. Paul’s. Admission is $3 for adults and 50 cents for children.

Adjudicator Amy Boyes offers some tips to young pianists Isabelle O’Hagan (seated) and Gabriella Allison during the Festival of Sacred Praise.

Friends of Ferris to host free walking tours again from nearby Brighton, and Trenton, and countries such as Germany, England and the U.S. Whether from nearby or from far away, visitors want to see the progress being made on the dry stone wall restoration project or to find out if the osprey and chimney swifts have returned to take up residence in their respective platforms and towers. The volunteers work hard every year to ensure the park has plenty of activities and events that keep it a popular destination spot. “If you have lived in Campbellford all your life or if you are new to the area, these guided walks are a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature which is so close. It’s like being in your own back yard,” said Robertson. Rain or shine the walks will be held. “Once last year it was pouring rain … sure enough a friend showed up. We dithered a bit about whether we should start out but we were both dressed for it so off we went,” Robertson commented. “It was a unique experience

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Dust off your sneakers, dig out your walking gear and even bring your Nordic poles because the Friends of Ferris (FofF)will be hosting the first of its guided walks on May 5. This will be the sixth year for these free tours. “For the last several years Friends of Ferris volunteers have offered free guided tours in the Park [Ferris Provincial Park],” said Carol Robertson, vice president. She has been organizing the walks for many years and is a staunch supporter of this non-profit energetic group of volunteers. “If you are interested in learning more about the park and all the wonders of nature that can be found there, join us every Tuesday at 9 a.m. at the east end of the Suspension Bridge,” she said inviting participation in this season’s weekly event. The free guided walks attract regular walkers from the neighbouring towns of Hastings, Stirling, Havelock and Marmara as well as visitors

because we got to see, smell and feel the park in an entirely different condition.” The trails are maintained by park staff and a crew of volunteers. No matter what the weather the trails are navigable; guided tours will continue every Tuesday until December 8. Robertson noted that the Spring Nature Walk, formerly the Trillium Walk, is in hiatus this year, “so the Tuesdays in May will be perfect for seeing the spring wild flowers in all their glory.” The goal is to get people into the park, she explained. “When people visit the park they see the efforts of park staff, Friends of Ferris volunteers and the results of donations. They witness the value of money well spent. “The guided walks are free if you walk in. If you choose to drive in then you pay at the gate entrance off County Road 8,” she concluded.

Sounds and music at Arts Centre Hastings By Diane Sherman

Entertainment - Madoc - How an audience hears a performing artist is the limiting factor to their success; if the sound is not right, the performance is not right. Saturday, April 25, 12 individuals, all involved with music, theatre or stage presentation in some way, attended a workshop, Sound System 101, at Arts Centre Hastings in Madoc, to learn the basics of setting up a public address system. The workshop was spearheaded by James Reid of BV Amazing Music, well known for keeping the Amazing Jam Session going after it dissolved from its origins at Amazing Coffee in Madoc. Participants from Norwood, Belleville, Tweed, Campbellford and beyond signed up for the course through links sent out by Reid to members on the Amazing mailing list. Instructor Martin Comeau is well known for his role as stage manager for the Blue Skies Music Festival held each long weekend of August in Clarendon, Ontario. The festival has been on-going for 35 years, the same as Comeau’s work history in the field. After their workshop and a supper break, the doors were opened to the public for a free show highlighting participants and drop-in musicians, while participants applied their technical skills

with guidance from Comeau. Refreshments were served by Madoc’s own Hidden Goldmine Bakery and the sound was perfect. Local singer/songwriter Kyle Mitchell was the feature artist, often sitting in on sound with Comeau. Tony Long, the originator of Amazing Coffee in Madoc, was on hand. Long said he misses the music and the people who passed through his shop over the years. “I just had to come out and enjoy this night,” he said. He was not disappointed. The talent was impressive. The quality of sound and production was at its best, giving each artist individual attention. Comeau demonstrated how a show could become recording-ready. Sixteen-year-old Owen Wright from Norwood is producing his own soundtracks and wanted to learn all he could about setting a stage and controlling sound. The same with Michael McNamara, who began pursuing his music career only three years ago. On the slate was KAZ, whose guitar style and unique voice captured the audience. Peter Schilling followed with a blues flare. Carol King from Marmora enchanted with her a cappella of Ella Fitzgerald, Bill Milligan presented his unique sense of humour, Paul King with JP Copeland combined their talents, and

Michael McNamara has a flare for the folk/blues music of the legendary Lead Belly and proved it on stage. Photo: Diane Sherman

Deb Chatreau stomped the stage with her upbeat ukelele rendition of Daddy was a Rolling Stone. Chatreau works with Blue Skies in the Community to bring music into the schools. As a teacher at Madoc Township Public School, Chatreau knows the value of encouraging youth to pursue musical

interests. The hat was passed after her performance to help support the outreach program. The sentiment at the end of the day was the event was a unanimous success. You can see the show on YouTube at CHTV Madoc, and find The Blue Skies Festival links on the Internet.

Alderville First Nation outlines consultation protocol

By Dominik Wisniewski, Northumberland News

lumbia. “One of our people got shot in Ipperwash in 1995 and that was to do with lack of consultation,” he said, pointing to the day that the OPP shot and killed Dudley George at Ipperwash Provincial Park. “The bands there had given land to the government during the war time and want to get this land back, but it was never returned to them.” Simpson said that all it would have taken back then was to sit down and “talk about this situation with the government and the people. “It could diffuse a whole lot of problems and issues,” he added.

R0013252621

News - Alderville - Representatives from the Alderville First Nation (AFN) have outlined a new duty-to-consult protocol to Northumberland County officials, with the hope of working together on any proposed developments on their territory. According to AFN lands and resources co-ordinator Dave Simpson, the protocol spells out what is expected of a proponent when it comes to consulting the First Nation. During a recent presentation at the regular session of county council, he said the protocol was created based on a 2004 Supreme Court decision in British Co-

Looking back on the AFN’s long history in Ontario–dating back centuries through migrations to the Great Lakes and southern Ontario–Simpson said it was through treaties, land cessions and land being taken away, that Alderville “ended up on a small parcel of land at the north end of Northumberland County.” In addition to this land, the AFN still has their treaty area, the Williams Treaties First Nations which are comprised in part by the Mississaugas of Alderville First

Nation, he said. “It’s not just Alderville First Nation that you have to consult with. Depending on the project you may have to consult several other First Nations,” he told council. In addition to being stewards of the land for generations, Simpson said the AFN has traditional knowledge and wisdom from its elders that it can share through the protocol. “If you sit down in the planning stages

and talk with us we can have valued input on your projects,” he said. “We’re not enemies, we’re not against progress and we’re not against projects, but we would like to work together.” Before passing a motion to receive the protocol, Northumberland County Warden Marc Coombs thanked the Alderville First Nation delegation–which included Chief Jim Bob Marsden–who attended the meeting to also participate in the flagraising ceremony.

Quinte Christian High School stages spring musical Ernest in Love

Entertainment - Belleville - Quinte Christian High School students are getting ready to stage their spring musical, Ernest in Love. The show is a witty jaunt through the dreadfully complicated social scene of upper class Londoners. Based on Oscar Wilde’s The Impor-

tance of Being Earnest, this musical adaptation written by Anne Croswell and scored by Lee Pockriss takes us back to the late Victorian age when manners, money and marriage were all that really mattered. The show runs May 7 to 9 at 7 p.m. each night. Tickets are $15

for adults, $10 for seniors and are available at the door. Quinte Christian High School is at 138 Wallbridge-Loyalist Road. Come enjoy a farcical comedy with love and white lies in the air, when the characters are earnest only when they’re not Ernest.
