News - Norwood - It was a dreamy Saturday night for the Norwood Lions Club and the soon-to-be-built splashpad the been working hard to bring to the CHANGEOVER club’s community. The Lions prominent fundfrom raising thermometer burst through to the top, ying past the $275,000 mark during a ceremony celebrating the Ontario Trillium Foundation’s $150,000 grant. Once the formalities were over, the club welcomed hundreds of guests to the NorTrenton: Cobourg: wood Town Hall for their dream auction 613-392-1354 905-372-6664 and wine-tasting gala that added another 303 461 $13,344 to the splashpad fund, $1,900 of Dundas St. W.

a-kind Casson sewing machine tractor. Everything is ready for a May 17 ground-breaking ceremony and a two- to three-week installation of the $210,967, 2,575-square-foot Vortex splashpad by ABC Recreation Limited of Paris, Ontario. “Nothing can stop us now, it’s under way,� a jubilant Ron Scott told The Independent. Scott chairs the Lions splashpad committee which made remarkable headway in raising cash and pledges and putting the community in a position to have a splashpad this summer. When the facility is completed the Lions will turn ownership and operation over to the township.

“We are a couple years ahead. I thought we’d be at this a few years,� Scott admitted. “There has been lots of community support,� he said, adding that the huge turnout for the dream auction is representatives of that support. “There wasn’t much negative and if there was they’re on side now. It’s amazing how much more money came in once we got the Trillium grant. It made a boost in fund raising.� Scott said the committee was optimistic that they would be successful in their Trillium application; they just weren’t sure when that might be. “I was optimistic because I’d seen oth-

ers around get it so I thought we would get it; whether this time or not I didn’t know. I was pretty sure we’d get it sometime.â€? Fund raising will continue to allow the Lions to have the facility landscaped in an attractive fashion with trees, shrubbery and benches. Scott says there is a possibility of having the splashpad fenced off so it can be locked up when not in use but that has not been decided. He is also suggesting, tongue ďŹ rmly in cheek certainly, that Lions Club members will be out in their Speedos to help turn the water on during an ofďŹ cial opening ceremony.

News - Havelock - It might not feel like spring but giving the village of Havelock a bit of a spring cleaning was at the heart of Earth Week’s cleanup activities which culminated in the municipality’s annual community cleanup on Saturday that got a big assist from Tim Hortons in Havelock which provided gloves, bags and commemorative T-shirts. “It’s one of those things that brings a certain amount of people out,� said Councillor Barry Pomeroy, happy with the effort residents put in every year. “It shows they have pride when you see how much garbage is collected,� said Pomeroy. “It’s a benefit to the community and I’m pleased that the kids came out.� “This year it might be a little tougher; you won’t be able to get into the ditches beChris Smith, owner of Tim Hortons cause they’re full of water,� he added.

Ten-year veteran seeking another term on council

News - Trent Hills - Ten years on council have only whetted Gene Brahaney’s appetite to do more for the voters. He’ll be seeking re-election as one of three council representatives representing Ward 1 (CampbellfordSeymour). “It’s very important that council works together and the ten years I’ve been here council has worked very well together; we haven’t had the infighting that some others have,� Brahaney said. “I think it’s very important that people work for the good of Trent Hills, not particularly their own wards.� Brahaney said he’d “like to continue some of the work� the current council has started. “I see our role as guardians of the assets of the municipality,� he said. “We’ve done a good job of refurbishing� the public works fleet and “we’ve spent a considerable amount of money on the fire department.� Brahaney is a big supporter of funding improvements in fire services and making dwelling places

safer through fire inspections, having been an insurance adjuster for 21 years. He’s “encouraged� by the “considerable amount of new housing� being built in Trent Hills but “one thing that does disappoint� him are the empty storefronts in Campbellford and elsewhere in the municipality. The controversy over where a new bridge is to be built in Campbellford has attracted the most attention the past four years but with a decision expected this summer on the best option, it’s not likely to be a matter the next council will have to deal with. Looking beyond that, “I don’t know what else is a burning issue with people,� Brahaney said, but as a former chair of the Catholic school board he is “concerned� about the future of Campbellford District High School and Hastings Public School because of declining student enrollment. “We need to be aware of that as a council, to fight if it does become a closure issue,� Brahaney said. A farmer his entire life, he’s a member of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture’s policy advisory council.

Fund raising has now topped the $275,000 mark and the shovel will go in the ground May 17. Continued from page 1

Guests at the Norwood Lions dream auction were fascinated by the one-of-akind tractor that local artisan Carl Millett created out of a vintage Casson sewing machine. The remarkable piece of artistry sold for $1,900 during the live auction portion of the night.

Asphodel-Norwood Mayor Doug Pearcy is a member of the Lions and its splashpad committee so he wore two hats during the Trillium celebration. “As we continue to build our community we continue to rely on groups like the Lions,” Pearcy said. “I think we’ve done a wonderful job spearheading this project and making it happen for our community.” Pearcy thanked the Trillium Foundation, Peterborough MPP Jeff Leal and the “very generous support” of local businesses and citizens. Leal said it was a great day for the community and was happy to see so many young families present at the ceremony.

Donetsk is not Sarajevo

Gwynne Dyer

Editorial - With due apologies to God, Voltaire and the Ukrainians, I must point out that if Ukraine did not exist, it would not be necessary to invent it. It is not a great power, it has no resources the world cannot do without, and it is not a “vital strategic interest” to anybody except the Ukrainians themselves. Not even to the Russians, although they are acting at the moment as though it were.

Bosnia was nobody’s vital strategic interest either. It isn’t now, and it wasn’t a hundred years ago. But Bismarck warned in 1898 that if there was ever another major war in Europe, it would come out of “some damned silly thing in the Balkans,” and an assassination in Sarajevo in 1914 fulfilled his prophecy to the letter. Some things have changed since then, however. The next world war will not come out of Ukraine (which is only slightly north-east of the Balkans) no matter what happens in the next few weeks and months. Russia might invade Ukraine, there might even be a new Cold War for a while, but there will be no fighting in Europe beyond Ukraine’s borders. Indeed, apart from the Balkans there has been no full-scale war in Europe for the past 69 years, and there was never the slightest risk that the fighting in the 1990s would spread beyond the borders of former Yugoslavia. Indeed, there was probably never a single day during the 45 years of the Cold War when either side seriously considered attacking the other. The reason was simple: they knew what would happen next, even if neither side used the thousands of nuclear weapons at its disposal. Twice in thirty years, in 1914-18 and 1939-45, a major war using modern weapons had been fought over almost all of Europe’s territory. On the first occasion, they lost a generation of young men. The second time, most countries from Germany eastwards lost around ten percent of their populations and most of the casualties that time were civilians. Half of the continent’s

great historic cities were reduced to ruins even without the help of nuclear weapons. It was a very expensive education, but the Europeans did finally learn their lesson: don’t do this any more. That is why, even as Russian tanks drive right up to Ukraine’s eastern borders and the Ukrainian army prepares to die in a fight it knows it would lose, nobody else in Europe is getting ready for war. If the Russians want part or all of Ukraine, they can have it and pay the long-term price for taking it, which would be very high. But nothing in Europe is worth blowing all of Europe up for. Do not be alarmed by the fact that troops and planes from as far away as the United States and Canada are currently being sent to NATO countries that have borders with Russia. The numbers are militarily insignificant. Their purpose is simply to remind the Russians that the alliance will protect its own members should Moscow ever decide that it has also a right to “protect” Russian-speakers in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. Moscow does not actually need to be reminded of that. It has seized Crimea, and is toying with the idea of seizing more of Ukraine, precisely because that country does not fall under the NATO umbrella. And it does not belong to NATO because NATO didn’t want to take military responsibility for its defence. The collapse of the status quo is partly the European Union’s fault, for demanding that Ukraine choose between closer trade and travel ties with the EU and full membership in Russia’s proposed “Eurasian Union”. It is even more the fault of Moscow: President Vladimir Putin has been both emotional and opportunistic. He’s scaring people, which is never a good idea. But if he does take more or even all of Ukraine, the West will not fight him. It will just take in all the Ukrainian refugees, strengthen its eastern defences, and begin the slow process of bringing down Putin by crippling the Russian economy. That would take years, but nobody would forget about Ukraine. It is a UN member, and even China has stopped supporting the Russian position. Remember East Timor.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Hands off my right to vote Mr. Harper

Dear Editor Nothing is more fundamental to democracy than the right to vote. It is cherished in democracies and envied in dictatorships. Today’s newspapers are filled with stories about pro-democracy protests in Ukraine, Egypt, Venezuela and Afghanistan. Similarly, the history books are brimming with stories of disenfranchised people being imprisoned, persecuted, and killed because of their desire to cast a ballot. Throughout history, dictators feared nothing more than the right to vote. It was for this reason, Abraham Lincoln famously remarked, “the ballot is stronger than the bullet.” Internationally, Canada has been a tireless champion of the right to vote. Thousands of Canadians died on the cliffs of Dieppe; in the deserts of Kandahar; on the beaches of Normandy; and in the valleys of Kapyong in defense of it. They died so millions could vote and be freed from fascism, communism and totalitarianism. Domestically, the right to vote expanded throughout the 20th century. Suffrage was extended to women in 1921; to Asian Canadians in 1947 and 1948; to First Nations/Aboriginal Canadians in 1960; to the mentally ill in 1988; and to the incarcerated in 2002.The right to vote is so fundamental; governments of all political strips have sought to insulate it from political interference. Prime Minister Mackenzie introduced the secret ballot in 1874. Prime Minister Borden created Elec-

tions Canada in 1920. Prime Minister Trudeau enshrined the right to vote in the Charter (1982). Prime Minister Chretien passed campaign finance reform in 2000. Stephen Harper’s contribution to history? Unlike his predecessors, Prime Minister Harper is trying to turn the clocks back. His government is trying to pass legislation (Bill C-23), which could prevent 520,000 Canadians from voting in the next election. First Nations/Aboriginal Canadians, university students, senior citizens and low-income individuals will all be affected. Bill C-23 will eliminate the process of “vouching”, eliminate voter identification cards, and eliminate the Chief Electoral Officer’s ability to promote voting. The government is trying to rush this anti-democratic bill through Parliament as fast as possible. They have ignored petitions, refused to consult voters, rejected expert testimony, and limited debate. Stephen Harper will go down in the history books as the prime minister who tried to roll back the right to vote. I hope our generation (like Nellie McClung, Rosa Parks, and Nelson Mandela) will go down as the generation that stopped him. Prime Minister Harper: keep your hands off my right to vote.

It’s almost impossible to get away from it all By Terry Bush Editorial - The older I get, the more I start to sound like that old guy who lived a couple of doors down when we were kids. That would be the guy who used to yell at us when we walked on the side of the road past his house because he’d planted grass on the shoulder right up to the pavement. He was the guy who used to wash his driveway every other day on the days he didn’t wash his car. He was the guy who never smiled at the neighbourhood kids when we said hello. He was also the guy who constantly filled up his birdbath because the water mysteriously turned yellow. And he was the guy who often heard explosions in his basement stairwell on Hallowe’en. I don’t want to be that grumpy guy. But I’m afraid I’m heading that way. When I hear the name John Baird, I grimace wondering what he’s done now. He’s been doing a bit of travelling lately holding “a warm and productive meeting” in Cairo with Egypt’s Minister of Foreign Affairs. At least that’s what the Canadian Foreign Affairs website says. Why he’s providing legitimacy to the current government of Egypt is anybody’s guess considering it overthrew the elected government in a bloody coup. According to a quote from Baird in the Toronto Star, Canada wants to “effectively assist Egypt at this critical juncture.” I’m not quite sure what Canada wants to assist Egypt with. It can’t be democracy. Maybe it’s the upcoming election, which is already a foregone conclusion. The coup leader el-Sisi will definitely be the next president. Maybe it’s the release of prisoners held without charge including Canadian citizens. Then again it could be something entirely different. Earlier this week another 683 protesters of the coup were sentenced to death including the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood. Last month 529 protesters were sentenced to death. Another 920 protesters are about to be tried in another mass trial. It certainly doesn’t pay to protest the overthrow of a government in Egypt. As a Canadian, I don’t think we should even be talking to a country like this let alone assisting them in any way. If you want to sanction a country, this would be the one. But John Baird isn’t the only one in government to get my goat lately. When I read today that Parks Canada is planning to install Wi-Fi Internet hotspots in up to 50 park locations this year, I could only manage a “What the hell?” Mind you, I’d just driven home from work and saw five people talking away on their cell phones while driving so maybe that set me off. To my way of thinking, heading off to the wilderness is the best way

to get away from the many devices that clutter everyone’s lives today. Recently we went to an anniversary celebration and when the lights were dimmed for dancing, it got quite spooky in the hall. As my wife and I looked around the room, we saw an eerie glow emanating from the faces of almost every person under 25. They were having conversations with each other we’re sure, but for some unknown reason, talking to one another seemed to take a backseat to texting one another. I’ve seen it before in the middle of a seminar at our head office. While the rest of us were listening to the speaker, two people from the same newspaper office were busy texting and laughing at the texts they were sending one another. Once upon a time that may have been considered rude. So now, Parks Canada wants to bring Internet access to 150 locations over the next three years. This all sounds quite dangerous to me. People have enough trouble trying to avoid walking into stop signs on city streets while texting without giving them the ability to watch television while paddling or hiking in some remote area. Heaven forbid you have to respond to an email. “Sorry, I’ll get back to you in a minute or two. There seems to be a grizzly bear in front of me and a cub behind me. I’ll email you back in a jiffy.” Some will say it makes going to the wilderness safer. To that I say, if you want to be safe, stay home. The unpredictability of rough camping is what makes heading to the backcountry exciting. Luckily, I’m not alone in my displeasure. A quick perusal of the comments section for this Toronto Star story yielded these gems. “I am embarrassed to be a human today. This is an unconsciously stupid idea. Spend money on improving campsites and protecting wildlife not attracting morons to parks who can’t go a weekend without the Internet.” “Please don’t! The whole reason I spend time interior camping is to get away from all this crap! If you suffer from potentially life threatening medical conditions and insist on camping. Get the SPOT! Leave the wilderness free of electronic pollution!” “What a waste, doesn’t Parks Canada have better things to worry about? Like protecting nature?” “Does a bear tweet in the woods? As long as the towers blend into the landscape, this is a great idea. It is one thing to live the wilderness experience (everyone should try it) but it is quite another to die due to lack of experience or ability to call for help.” “As long as the towers blend into the landscape?” To this guy I say, “Get off my lawn, you rotten kid.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

People come second in Campbellford Dear Editor, Regarding the proposed bypass through a heritage neighbourhood at Second and Alma streets in Campbellford, there has been much ado about technicalities, traffic studies, trucks, concrete and pavement. However, it’s not about engineering and building bypasses. That is secondary. It is ALL about sound planning and a vision of our town. There has not been a study by the current consulting firm IBI or the others on the most important factor of all. The human factor. On the impact this bypass would have on living breathing human beings. On the character and “livability” of our town. On the vision for what we want Campbellford to look like now and going into the future.

People are far more important than any traffic study or bypass and yet they have been ignored. We talk about recruiting and retaining doctors and medical professionals in our community being a very high priority. These are intelligent, educated and sophisticated people who will assess all aspects of a community when making their decision whether or not to live and practice here. What kind of community do we want to present to these people to entice them to stay and live in Campbellford. Respectfully Dwight Boyd, Warkworth

Campbellford Hospital does it again Dear Editor, Hurrah for Campbellford Memorial Hospital Emergency Department, doctors, nurses and ambulance team. My husband was diagnosed as having a heart attack at 6 p.m. April 2. The emergency doctors and nurses were quick to assess the situation and very

Earth Day visitors bring message to young “ambassadors” By Bill Freeman

Wendy Asselstine, shown last year following the dramatic rescue of Lucky the Loon, was given a warm reception at Hastings Public School where she spoke on Earth Day about helping to keep local wildlife safe from the perils of trash in the water and along shorelines. Photo: Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - The plight of Ontario’s turtles and wildlife living in and around Hastings were on the minds of students at Hastings Public School during a visit by local residents and environmental advocates Wendy Asselstine and Wendy Baggs. The pair made a joint presentation to students to cap Earth Day activities at the school which included HPS’s annual village cleanup. “I felt really good about today; we were really pleased to be able to come here and felt so welcome,” said Asselstine. “The children were so interested. I am really positive that they will make a difference.” Asselstine and Baggs became friends in the aftermath of an Olympian day-long effort last summer to save a baby loon, named Lucky after his rescue, which became entangled in a fishing bobber off the Trent Riv-

er shore near Asselstine’s home. During the course of the summer Asselstine had watched Lucky grow up until that fateful day when the young loon was caught up in fishing debris and nearly perished. “The bobber wouldn’t let him dive into the water but he kept trying. He would get exhausted and go the shore and get a rest,” she told the students. “By the end of the day I was pretty upset.” Asselstine ended up calling numerous agencies looking for assistance but in the end it was a nearby cottager who managed to rescue Lucky by way of some tricky manoeuvring with a boat and net. In this instance there was a happy ending but that’s not always the case, says Asselstine. “We were brought together by Lucky the loon and we have started this little mission of ours,” Asselstine said.

“After we rescued the loon we decided to do something about it.” The “mission” began with an astounding 90-minute haul of garbage collected from near the Hastings Trent Severn Waterway lock then picked up steam with an appearance at the Hastings Waterfront Festival. The pair has spoken to officials from Parks Canada and Trent Hills and lobbied successfully to get antilitter signage posted in the area. “We have seen things happen.” “The majority of the garbage comes from people who are irresponsible,” Asselstine says. The most dangerous “culprit” of all to wildlife is fishing line, she says pointing to the mound of garbage they brought to HPS, an example of what they found near the lockside shore. What they’re asking of people, students included, is “not a big thing,” says Asselstine. They want

everyone to be mindful of what they do with their garbage. Asselstine and Baggs will speak to Trent Hills council about their mission in late May. “We’ve had positive feedback from them. I hope they will send us in a new direction,” she said. They’ll also continue to work with Parks Canada. They’re especially excited about partnering with the school and being part of their annual garbage can painting campaign. “Students are very interested in what they can do to help. They are our future. It’s amazing how children have an effect on parents and grandparents. It’s just awareness and they are our ambassadors,” said Asselstine. “I am really positive they will make a difference. It’s their pride in their town. We will see their effects around town this summer.”

Township will hold line on TVE water charge

By Bill Freeman

News - Trentview Estates - Township council has backed away from a proposed $2 a month increase in the Trentview Estates water administration charge and has agreed to keep the fee at $37 with $2,500 to be used for installation of a switch panel in the TVE pumphouse so a portable generator can be used during a power outage. The 85 TVE water users will still see

a pipe charge increase of $9.15 to $9.44 imposed by the Municipality of Trent Hills. The per-cubic-metre water rate is unchanged at $1.26. Township council had proposed the $2 increase as a way of recouping the unexpected $4,300 it spent following a major water leak in the village of Hastings. The repair bill produced a $751 deficit to the TVE water system’s 2013 budget rather than an anticipated

Hastings Village Market returns Saturday

$1,106 surplus. TVE residents were upset that the water system was charged for a problem that originated in neighbouring Hastings. “We had no bearing on what the problem was,” resident Peter Oord said during a meeting to set the 2014 water rate. “The break was in a plant in Hastings and we had to react to that. [Trent Hills] should have a reserve to deal with that situation.” Asphodel-Norwood had hoped to recover their costs through legal channels but discovered that the price would be too high, CAO Joe van Koeverden said. “The deal was that that each system [Asphodel-Norwood and Trent Hills] would cover their own cost and there would be a joint attempt to recover those costs from whoever caused it,” said van Koeverden. “We are the owners of that system so the cost is charge to [us],” he added.

Oord maintained that the pipe charge TVE residents pay to Trent Hills should be going into a “contingency fund” that would be used by Trent Hills to cover exceptional situations like the water break that required AsphodelNorwood. During the meeting treasurer Melanie Stubbs reiterated what she’d said during earlier meetings noting that 86 per cent of the $160,800 Ontario Small Water System Program grant the municipality received over four years was spent repairing all TVE water services resulting in a 25 per cent reduction in the amount of water Asphodel-Norwood purchases from Trent Hills. The Trent Hills consumption rate has also decreased from $1.52 in 2012 to $1.26 in 2013; the pipe charge, on the other hand, has gone up 29 cents. In 2012, the municipality took over billing from Peterborough Utilities Services and that has also produced savings. Stubbs says that in 2009, Asphodel-

Norwood spent over $13,000 in water purchases from Trent Hills; that dropped to $10,039 in 2013. “That’s a fairly significant difference,” she said. There are ongoing concerns about the system’s pump which is halfway through its life cycle. The cost of a new pump is estimated at $5,000. “If you look at the costs of other systems we are an example of good management,” Deputy-mayor Joe Crowley said. “We’re not here to make any profits; we’d just like to maintain the system.” One resident wondered about the five houses in Trent Hills that receive water from the TVE system but are not billed by Asphodel-Norwood. “You do not receive 37 monthly from them,” he said. “It would be good to have a discussion [with Trent Hills] about how they are billed from this system,” Councillor Mary Hay agreed. “It’s a good point.”

News - Campbellford - The 20-yearold microscope used in the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Laboratory for diagnosing illnesses of patients from three counties will soon be replaced thanks to a $12,909 donation from Economical Insurance. The company demonstrated its continued support of Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) with a recent donation of $12,909 in partnership with Newman, Oliver & McCarten Insurance Brokers Ltd. “The microscope is one of the key elements used in testing for the diagnosis of illnesses found in blood, urine or tissue, and for determining the

subsequent medications and treatment needed for proper and effective patient care,” said John Russell, executive director of the CMH Foundation. “We are grateful for Economical’s generosity that will allow the laboratory team to continue offering excellence in testing.” The new microscope will feature upgraded optics and can incorporate a digital camera for the instantaneous sharing of diagnostic images with other medical professionals, which will be a great benefit in acute critical situations. “The CMH Laboratory is vital to the region as there is no private laboratory in our area that patients can access,”

Happy Mother’s Day Sunday, May 11th to All Our Customers ^ Ir Families & Friends ^ ^ Ir ^

noted Russell. “CMH must provide outpatient laboratory services at no cost to patients throughout our catchment area that includes 30,000 people in Hastings, Northumberland and Peterborough. There is no additional government funding given to CMH regardless of the patient load,” he added. “We are thrilled that Economical Insurance continues to give back to our community,” said Calvin Newman, chair of the CMH Foundation and president of Newman, Oliver & McCarten Insurance Brokers Ltd. “We rely on donations for equipment purchases such as this. My company has represented Economical since 1895, and I am pleased to say that their generous donation will make a big difference to our small hospital.” In 2012, Economical donated $10,000 to the CMH Foundation in support of end-of-life/palliative care patients. The funds helped purchase a new bed fitted with an air mattress specifically designed to enhance the comfort of bedridden palliative patients at CMH. “We are proud to give back to Campbellford in partnership with Newman, Oliver & McCarten,” said Tom Reikman, Economical’s chief operating officer. “Newman, Oliver & McCarten has been our trusted broker partner in serving the needs of the community for nearly 120 years. This donation meets a definite need at CMH and demonstrates our ongoing commitment to keeping Campbellford a place where many people are proud to call home.” Founded in 1871, Economical Insurance is one of Canada’s leading property and casualty insurers, with $1.9 billion in premiums and more than $5.1 billion in assets as at December 31, 2013. Based in Waterloo, this Canadian-owned and operated company services the insurance needs of more than one million customers across the country. CMH is a 34-bed health care facility located in Campbellford. It serves approximately 30,000 Northumberland, Peterborough and Hastings County residents, as well as a large seasonal population of cottagers and tourists enjoying the beautiful Kawartha Lakes Region and the Trent River System.

New chief of emergency services has long history with department

ANNOUNCEMENT

News - Campbellford - The new chief of emergency services at Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) is no stranger to the department; he’s worked there part-time since 1999. “I’ve always enjoyed the place,� both its staff and the working environment, says Dr. Bruce Bain, who served 26 years in the Canadian Forces before retiring as a lieutenantcolonel two years ago. Now residing in Peterborough, he was living in Trenton when he began working two Saturday shifts a month in the

who “always went above and beyond,â€? Smith said. “When there was a real physician shortage in the community ‌ even though he wasn’t a family doctor he would ask people to come back [for a follow up].â€? That showed “a level of compassion and professionalism which is why we nominated him for the award he wonâ€?—the Dr. Helen Karounis Memorial Award for Professionalism in Emergency Medicine, which Bartlett received in 2011 from the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians.

role is similar to what he did in the latter part of his military career when he was a senior medical officer at a clinic and ran a research and training unit. “I’m looking forward to bringing that experience into this job, and working with the administration, [which is] going through a master planning exercise right now looking at where this hospital is going to be ‌ for the next thirty or forty years,â€? he said. Challenges include provincial funding and the “conundrum [of] who should be coming to the emergency department,â€? which can be “a bit of tricky thing,â€? Bain said. “It’s a discussion we don’t ever have with the public.â€? There are “a lot of people who probably come to the emergency department who don’t really need to be here,â€? he said. “On the other hand, that affects our funding as well,â€? which is based on the number of people who “come through the door in a year.â€? Bain said the public needs to understand “that people are not seen on a first-come, first-served basis, [they’re] seen based on acuity [severity of illness].â€? Bain, 56, and his wife Audrey have two sons, both in university. He plays guitar, runs, and likes to ride mountain and road bikes. Smith said “it’s always preferable to recruit internallyâ€? to fill a leadership role because “the learning curve is a lot shorter.â€? Bartlett was the face of emergency services for more than a dozen years

emergency department. “I came up here because I heard they were looking for people to fill in, especially weekend shifts, which worked perfectly for me,� he said. For the past two years, he’s been covering more shifts at Campbellford, six to eight days a month, and become “more involved so it will be an easier transition� to being chief of emergency services, Bain said. He’s part of a core group of physicians who have worked in emergency at CMH for many years, including Dr. Norm Bartlett, whose role as chief he took over April 1. “Norm has been the pillar of the department,� Bain said. He’s “a great guy [and] a great mentor [who sets] a good example.� Bartlett, who will continue to work part-time at CMH, is “very good with the patients and he works hard on their behalf,� he said. “He’s done a lot for this department�—most notably in spearheading the campaign to acquire a CT scanner. Bain said his duties as chief of emergency services include working with physician co-ordinator Laurie Smith to ensure staffing needs are looked after over the long term, “which is an ongoing issue.� He’ll also be working closely with the department’s nurse manager Sue Robinson, “making sure that we’re providing the best care that we can with the resources that we have.� Bain, 56, said his new administrative

News – Campbellford – Now in the final stages of fundraising for a digital mammography unit, Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation moved to “within inches” of its $650,000 goal last week following a donation of $10,000 by the Bay of Quinte Mutual Insurance Company. Foundation executive director John Russell made the comment after showing the chair of the insurance company, Harry Scanlan, the room where the unit is to be located. Renovations are underway to prepare for installation of the equipment which is expected to be in operation by the end of the month. The foundation has planned a special donor reception and open house for May 15, from 3 to 5 p.m., that will include tours of the diagnostic imaging area and a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Foundation chair Calvin Newman thanked Scanlan for his company’s contribution toward the purchase of technology that will provide “better diagnosis” than the film-based system it replaces. Cancer touches everyone, Newman said, and he offered examples from his own life. “We’ve had two of our staff members (at Newman Oliver and McCarten Insurance Brokers Ltd.) pass away” from cancer and another one survive, and one of his sisters is currently being treated for breast cancer, he said. Scanlan said his family “has been hit very hard” as well over the years; he’s lost a sister and a sister-in-law to cancer, and has a sister who survived breast cancer. “So whatever can be done to minimize its severity or go toward its prevention is wonderful,” said Scanlan who referred to CMH as the “go-to emergency hospital for most of (his) family.” The foundation says digital mammography is “more effective than conventional mammography for detecting breast cancer in women.” It shortens examination times, produces better quality

Trent Hills mayor declares state of emergency News – Trent Hills – A state of emergency remains in effect in Trent Hills, although water levels along the Trent River had stabilized by Monday. Mayor Hector Macmillan declared a state of emergency shortly before noon April 24, saying the municipality’s public works crews and firefighters, as well as material resources, had become exhausted. They spent days filling and stacking sandbags around dozens of vulnerable residences where the swollen Trent River had overflowed onto their properties. Approximately 12,000 sand bags were distributed, including 6,000 donated by Belleville and 5,000 left over from last year’s preparations. Belleville’s donation “staved off” declaring a state of emergency sooner, Macmillan said last week. “It got us over the hump, but we’ve pretty much used all those now, and we’re still seeing increases of an inch-and-a-half to two inches of water between Hastings and the village of Trent River.” The south end of Cedar Drive in Hastings was flooded as well as sections of Green Acres and Percy Boom but parts of the municipality were hit that hadn’t been affected by the last major flood in Trent Hills, in 2008, he said. Macmillan said nobody had requested an evacuation but “we’re prepared to jump on that immediately.” Fire Chief Tim Blake “has crews set aside for that purpose should that happen.” The mayor said the municipality had asked residents “to consider leaving their properties because aquifers” have been contaminated by septic systems that had been flooded and were no longer functioning. They’ve also been advised to drink only bottled water. Macmillan said “it was comforting to hear” from Premier Kathleen Wynne April 23. “She said her thoughts were with us and she offered the services of Emergency Management Ontario should we need them ... They were a great assistance in 2008.” The municipality issued a news release Monday afternoon stating its Emergency Operations Committee had met earlier in the day with representatives from Emergency Management Ontario, the OPP, the district health unit and Northumberland County’s social services department “to monitor the flood situation and begin discussions.” It said 1,400 properties in Trent Hills have been affected by the flood to date. “Declaring a state of emergency now doesn’t change ... (what) we’ve been doing all along,” Macmillan told the Independent. It wasn’t declared sooner “because we had not exhausted all our resources and now we have.”

Beginning early can ease the pressure of Mother’s Day shopping. Research gift options at least a month prior so that you can read reviews on products and services to guarantee quality. You also want to make sure the gift will arrive on time if you will be ordering your gift online. Here are other ways to shop in a smart manner.

* Do some sleuthing. Play detective and take inventory of what Mom likes to do the most. Practical gifts are less likely to end up unopened in the basement or attic.

Mother’s Day Menu

* Check expiration dates. Gift certificates and cards for particular stores or services are popular but it is essential to check expiration dates as there is a good chance Mom will put off pampering herself.

Four Course Meal ~ $32.00 per person Served between 12:00 pm and 7:00 p.m.

* Skip the chocolate overload. Calorie-conscious women may not want to be faced with the temptation of a warehouse-sized box of chocolate treats. If Mom truly loves chocolate, treat her to a gourmet piece or two, but don’t make that your main gift.

Breast cancer will be featured topic at health forum

News - Campbellford - Breast cancer is the focus of this year’s community health forum being hosted by The Lioness Club of Campbellford. Dr. Nancy Down, the deputy chief of surgery at North York General Hospital, will be the featured guest speaker. Originally from Trenton, her 12-page CV (curriculum vitae) includes an impressive account of her training, background and expertise as well as her many medical memberships, honours and awards, presentations and research accomplishments. There is also another local connection: Dr. Down is the sister of Kathy Redden, well known for her involvement in the Trent Hills community. “It’s going to be an exciting forum here in Campbellford,” said Maureen Dikun, committee chairperson of the event and a member of the Campbellford Lioness Club. “And it’s happening on the same day as the open house at the Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) being held to celebrate the new digital mammography unit with tours of the diagnostic imaging area including the CT Scan suite and new digital mammography suite. “Breast cancer is a problem affecting not only women but men also,” noted Dikun, who said the topic for this year’s forum is “very important.” “North York General Hospital is a major centre for cancer care and Dr. Down is described as one of the reasons why this hospital is a major centre for cancer care in Toronto,” she added. Dr. Down graduated from the University of Toronto Medical School in 1980.

According to the University of Toronto web site she completed her surgical training in the Gallie program at the university and subsequently did a clinical fellowship in general surgery at St. Michael’s Hospital. In 1985 she set up her general surgical practice at Etobicoke General Hospital where she practised for ten years before moving to North York General Hospital where she practises today. Her clinical practice covers a broad range of general surgery including a high volume of breast, thyroid, endoscopy and laparoscopic surgery. 
She is currently the deputy chief of surgery at North York General Hospital and is consultant general surgeon to the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Marlies Hockey Teams. “As keynote speaker Dr. Down will discuss cancer detection, incidence, treatment, assistance and support, and challenges that face both those people affected and their loved ones,” said Dikun. Joining her at the forum will be Patt McDowell, a teacher at Hastings Public School, who is a survivor of both breast and cervical cancer. “I am a wife, a mother, a friend, and a teacher. I am also a two-time cancer survivor. I faced my cancer journey head on and with humour,” said McDowell. Fay Smith, a long-time X-Ray Technologist and manager of the Diagnostic Imaging Department at CMH will be at the forum as well to talk about the progress made in mammography and the new Digital Mammography Unit at CMH. The community health forum will take place on Thursday, May 15, 2014, at 7:30 p.m. at Campbellford District High School. There is no admission charge. There will be displays, literature available and refreshments.

Celebrate Havelock grows from strength to strength By Bill Freeman

Havelock-Belmont-Methuen – Celebrate Havelock continues to grow from strength to strength and this year’s seventh anniversary showcase will represent an eye-catching demonstration of the businesses and services that people can find in Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and some of its neighbouring communities. It runs May 10 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. That the township has such an array of businesses and services is “surprising to some people,” says Celebrate Havelock committee member Brian Grattan who is also the municipality’s economic development officer and deputy-clerk. “This is an opportunity for people to see that,” says Grattan, pleased with how well the organizational structure for the seventh annual trade fair and community showcase has unfolded. The event is a chance for local businesses, entrepreneurs, organizations and community groups to show off what they have to offer; it also reaches out to neighbouring communities which have businesses and services that are not offered in HBM. Importantly, many of the over 1,000 visitors who stream through the HBM community centre are from outside the township attracted to the event by the committee’s expanding promotional reach which now includes television and radio spots. “Attendance has gradually grown over the seven years and the last two years have definitely been our best,” says Grattan. There will be at least 60 exhibitors on hand,

both inside and outside the community centre, along with entertainment from the likes of the Norwood District High Guitar Club, the Havelock Jammers, Kitchen Kuties and local performer Ryan Anderson, a contestant in the big Havelock Country Music Showdown. There will also be more than $5,000 worth of prizes up for grabs including a 65 inch plasma television donated by Unimin valued at $2,000, an outdoor patio set donated by Havelock Tim-Br Mart, two weekend passes to the twentyfifth anniversary Havelock Country Jamboree donated by the Jamboree. Each visitor will receive two free draw tickets with their $3 admission; draw tickets will also be sold for $1 each. Visitors who bring a non-perishable foodbank item will also receive a free draw ticket. Sponsorships are key to the success of Celebrate Havelock, says Grattan, and that allows the committee to reach a larger potential audience. Gold sponsors this year are Unimin, Havelock Tim-Br Mart, Country 105 FM and CHEX TV; silver sponsors are the Trent Hill Independent, Havelock Metal Products, Havelock Country Jamboree and the Havelock Lions Club; bronze sponsors are Sam’s Place General Store in Cordova Mines, DEAL Taxi and Havelock Guardian Pharmacy. The committee has also expanded its use of the community centre’s outdoor grounds and Grattan says they are excited about the addition of a big petting zoo area that will feature 40 to 45 animals. It’s a “different twist to the

show,” he says, with youngsters will get to “mingle with the animals” in an enclosed area. The Havelock Lions Club is sponsoring the petting zoo. “We’ve always been looking to expand the outdoor area (and) it looks like we’re going to have a full complement of exhibitors outdoors this year.” Organizers hope the petting zoo attracts lots of outdoor traffic, particularly families, which will then spread out to browse through the other outdoor displays. “It opens it up to allow some bigger exhibitors,” Grattan says of the community centre’s attractive green space. “We’re able to diversify and that allows exhibitors to bring bigger displays. J.J. Stewart Motors, for instance, will have an auto display and the local TD Canada Trust branch is bringing a mobile exhibit. “Outdoors is space we should utilize better and I think we’re doing a good job this year,” Grattan said. Grattan praises the “solid” committee that has been chaired by Elmer Buchanan for the past three years. “As we’ve built this committee it seems to have grown each year which has been a good thing. Everyone works well towards the one common goal. We get accomplished what we’re looking to accomplish.” Showcasing the community is what it’s all about and Grattan says the committee “definitely thank the Chamber of Commerce for getting this going.” Every year they add a couple of new members to the committee and are always looking for volunteers who can help in other ways.

Success to the Havelock Celebration

The committee also takes January. time to thank sponsors and “It is a festival of the exhibitors during an informal community,” says Buchanan. wine and cheese soiree in “We’re promoting Havelock

and celebrating what we have here. “I’m quite passionate about how we build community and this is (how we do it).”

CELEBRATE HAVELOCK 2014

2013 Celebrate Havelock attracted crowds again

By Sue Dickens Havelock-Belmont-Methuen - The inside of the community centre was transformed into a microcosm of the community outside as large and small businesses, non-profit organizations, rural and urban folks mingled to last year’s “Celebrate Havelock” on May 11, 2013. The day-long event organized by the Celebrate Havelock committee, a small but mighty group of about ten volunteers chaired by Elmer Buchanan, drew a crowd from the moment the doors to the Havelock-Belmont-Methuen (HBM) Community Centre opened at 9 a.m. until they closed seven hours later. Sixty exhibitors set up their displays featuring their products and services under one roof. Food vendors, a Bouncy Castle and baby chicks and alpacas meant there was something for everyone, young and old. Free workshops and demonstrations from a Master Gardener to Jiu Jitsu against a backdrop of music by the Norwood District High School Band and the Mid Week Jammers kept visitors entertained. “This event is about bringing the community together to truly celebrate the community,” said Buchanan, while rushing around making sure nothing was amiss. “It’s a celebration for businesses, community organizations and people who live in this community to come together and see what this community has to offer.” In its sixth year, Celebrate

Havelock continued to build on its formula for success, setting up displays both outside and indoors. Buchanan and Lee Resmer’s Elmlea Farm display with its alpacas and angoras was again a very popular attraction. Kathy Clement of Havelock moved here in the fall of 2012 and had been to Celebrate Havelock before. “When you move to a community this is the best way to find out what’s going on,” she said. She was with her sister Sharon McCuaig of Toronto who said with a grin, “They probably do have things like this in Toronto but I don’t know because I come down here all the time.” They were admiring the quilts, placemats, tote bags and knitting by two other sisters,

Anne and Mary Garron of Quilts Plus in Douro. “This is a great way to let people know who we are,” commented Anne Garron. Nearby Doreen Sharpe of Sharpe Physiotherapy of Trent River had a display and was letting people know about her free education classes on neck and back pain, Nordic Stick walking and safe gardening. Speaking of gardening, Master Gardener Judy Bernard, of Havelock, hosted a workshop on pruning tips. From the K9 Komfort Inn to Copperhill Solar Systems to Belmont Engine Repair to Dunfords, and the Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Township Fire/ Emergency Services, the community centre was the place to be in 2013.

Dropping by the Quilts Plus display at the 2013 Celebrate Havelock were: left, Sharon McCuaig of Toronto and her sister Kathy Clement, extreme right, of Havelock. They learned about the quilts made by these two sisters, Anne and Mary Garron, of Douro, centre left to right.

The 2013 Celebrate Havelock featured 60 exhibitors for its sixth annual day-long event held at the community centre in town. Judging by the crowd that attended the trade show and celebration was a huge success. (Top left) Rosetta Gough, left, of Havelock, got some tips about pruning from Master Gardener Judy Bernard of Havelock who held a free demonstration workshop for visitors during the 2013 Celebrate Havelock.

News - Havelock - Township council wants to hear from local cottagers associations before any step is taken toward organizing a voluntary septic inspection program. The Peterborough County-City Health Unit (PCCHU) already provides mandatory septic inspections for municipalities, under the Ontario Building Code, of properties identified in source water protection assessment reports as being within “vulnerable areas” for municipal wellheads and has suggested that a similar but voluntary program could also be delivered. The health unit also provides septic inspections for building permit applications. Some lake associations have asked municipalities to consider doing this, says the township’s planning assistant and bylaw enforcement officer Andrea Stillman. One meeting she attended on the issue was led by a cottager’s association another by the health unit in conjunction with local municipalities. The health unit charges $270 per property for mandatory septic inspections. “I would think it would be beneficial if this was something [council] considered endorsing or promoting,” Stillman said. “It’s something to think about.” Deputy-mayor Andy Sharpe says the topic first came up at the beginning of council’s term. “We had a move from cottage people here. They wanted a septic re-inspection program,” said Sharpe. “We know it’s not affordable for us to implement something like this unless there was some funding program that would tackle septics within townships.” Now that the information is available from the health unit on voluntary inspections Sharpe says it’s something they can share with local cottagers associations. Sharpe feels this is a good opportunity for the health unit to provide “some education” on the pro-

gram and details about costs which the municipality could post on its web site “so we’ve done our part.” “Can we contact the health unit and have them put together what an inspection is, what’s involved and [its] benefits? Is there any way we can support that education and help someone who wanted to learn more about septics?” he asked. “We should not be involved in any of the costs,” Councillor Barry Pomeroy emphasized. “I don’t think we should move on it yet until we get feedback from cottage associations. Let the associations make the decision; they can take a poll amongst themselves.” “I can’t see how we can even think of doing anything,” said Councillor Jim Martin. “Get the cottage associations to take it on.” Mayor Ron Gerow says there are cottagers associations in parts of the province that support mandatory inspections and others that “feel strongly the other way.” “Council has always taken a strong position that anything that would happen on any given lake in our township would need to be [endorsed] by the lake association,” Gerow said. “We have to be very careful how we move this forward.” “Over the course of the summer we’ll have an opportunity to give the cottagers associations some of that information [from the health unit] and let them decide,” Councillor Larry Ellis added. Deputy-mayor Sharpe noted that the health unit’s offer is “just out there for townships to consider” but he favours an educational plan that would assist cottagers. For a first-time cottage owner spending $400,000 on a waterfront property $270 might be a good investment, he said. Council agreed to make the health unit’s information available to cottage associations and will invite them to contact the PCCHU for “further discussion on how they’d like to move forward.” “That will give us some feedback,” said Gerow.

Proposed new garden site up in the air By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - The Nourish Havelock proposal to build an accessible community garden on Peterborough Housing Authority property appears to have hit a major surge of tenant opposition forcing the volunteer task force and council to look at a nearby alternative site. “There’s been quite considerable objection,” Nourish Havelock mem-

ber Cathy Dueck told council referring to a residents petition urging tenants to “Say ‘No’ to having strangers in our backyard.” “It’s very unlikely it would be possible to proceed with this at this site because of the extent of the negative response,” Dueck said. The group had hoped to meet with residents to explain in detail what the proposal entailed but didn’t get that

chance before the petition emerged along with a letter to council from resident Ada Vance. The group was uncertain if they’d be welcome at an April 28 meeting between tenants and Peterborough Housing although Dueck said they were “absolutely prepared” to talk to residents. “We understand they requested us not to be present,” she said. “In the long run we felt it would be

Fourteen properties face mandatory septic inspections By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - The Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen will cover the cost of mandatory septic inspections 14 properties will undergo because they fall within the “vulnerable areas” for municipal wells as defined by a source water protection assessment report. The $270 inspections will be conducted by the Peterborough CountyCity Health Unit under provisions covered by the Ontario Building Code. “I think we’re fortunate that we don’t have large numbers of these. It’s a pretty manageable number,” Deputymayor Andy Sharpe said. “I think this is part of running our water system [and] an expense these 14 certainly aren’t expected to have to pay.” The total cost is $3,780 and Sharpe suggested it be covered from the township’s Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund. “That there is a way that we can pay that and not charge these 14.” The properties are primarily on Mary Street, says planning assistant and bylaw enforcement officer Andrea Stillman. Letters from the PCCHU were sent out in March outlining the inspection requirements under the Building Code’s mandatory programs section.

Mayor Ron Gerow agreed with Sharpe that the 14 shouldn’t have to pay for the initial inspection. “I don’t believe that 14 ratepayers should have to pay this. This is mandatory set out by the provincial government. I know that in some other communities in the county the numbers are a lot bigger than what we have to deal with and will be a burdensome situation for sure.” Council was clear that the money was for the initial inspection only and not for any follow-up repairs ordered by the health unit. But they also hoped there would be provincial funding available to assist property owners required to make repairs. If there are “obvious signs” that a system needs repairs there will be a “second level inspection,” Stillman explained. “The health unit is in control of how that works out.” “Is there anything through Source Water Protection that will assist them if there is a problem? Is there anything for these people?” asked Councillor Jim Martin. Stillman said there had been dedicated funding through the Ministry

of the Environment’s Ontario Drinking Water Stewardship Fund that eligible property owners could apply for which covered a “fair chunk” of the cost of septic system upgrades. The program ran from 2007 to 2012. “Quite a few people took advantage of that,” she said, adding that property owners were personally visited by Vicky Woolfrey of the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority who explained the details of the funding program and what it covered. “At this point the funding has been cut off.” In the Trent Source Protection Region, 95 property owners used funding to address septic issues. “My understanding is that there were a lot of dollars left over from the program,” Gerow said hoping there was a chance to “re-visit the funding opportunity” if there is a problem. “Based on the fact that there were dollars left over I hope there is some relief for an individual.” Councillor Larry Ellis, council’s source water protection liaison, said he hadn’t heard of any additional funding. “All of the 14 were made aware of the earlier funding,” Ellis said.

a good thing for residents to have a garden,” she lamented, “but it would be a real mistake to push it at them at this point.” With that in mind, and a goal of launching the garden this spring, the group and municipality identified a 72-foot by 45-foot section in the northwest corner of the nearby township park that “fits almost perfectly” with Nourish Havelock’s plans. “It would still provide easy access to some of the residents [who are] interested in having a garden plot,” Dueck said. She says there are residents keen to tend one of the 20 raised garden beds. The “new” location north of the playground would not “disturb any of the workings of the park,” she added. The project still provides some “facilities for residents but not in their backyard. We feel this would work.” Nourish Havelock is asking council for the same level of support it approved for the Peterborough Housing site including one-time funding of $12,000. The new site is still eligible for funding pledged by the YWCA and others, Nourish member Amanda O’Rourke noted. In her letter, Vance asked “how would you feel waking up to strangers in your back yard? This is my home.” She feared the garden would disrupt the “peace and quiet” at the apartment building. Councillor Larry Ellis said he was

“quite surprised” when he heard of the “negative feedback.

“Were residents not aware they could be part of this?” “Were residents not aware they could be part of this?” Ellis asked. The task force never really had a chance to explain the proposal before opposition escalated, O’Rourke said. “It may be hard for them to imagination what an asset this could be,” Dueck added. Deputy-mayor Andy Sharpe believes there’s still time to determine the tenant’s definitive position. “There is still a couple of weeks to turn this around,” Sharpe said hopefully. The project is still “doable” at the new site, says Dueck, but she doesn’t think they could proceed if it is delayed beyond May 5. Mayor Ron Gerow “appreciated” the concerns of residents but believes every option should be “exhausted. “Even if we don’t end up going there I think it’s important that folks understand what was being proposed. I applaud [Nourish].” Staff will work with Nourish Havelock and bring back a report on the playground site for council’s next meeting. “We’ll have something in place so you can start planting seeds,” said Gerow.

people track immunization records for themselves and their loved ones. In a press release the health unit noted that the app provides access to vaccination schedules based on information specific to people’s home province or territory. It also features medical appointment reminders, notifications when a vaccine

is due, answers to many vaccine questions and alerts of disease outbreaks. Funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada, the ImmunizeCA app is available for iPhone, Android and Blackberry devices. Users can download the app from the Immunize Canada web site <www.immunize.ca>.

“Like eating well and being active, immunization is part of the foundation for a healthy life,� stated Linda McCarey, director of Communicable Disease Control with the HKPR District Health Unit. “Now there is a tool available that makes tracking vaccination easier for everyone.� The availability of the ImmunizeCA app is only one point about vaccination that the Health Unit wants to make during National Immunization Awareness Week (April 26 to May 3). In the Internet age when there is a lot of misinformation and scepticism about vaccines, McCarey stated it is vital for people to have ready access to sound information about safe and effective vaccines. “Immunization saves lives. A century ago, infectious diseases were the leading cause of death worldwide. Today in Canada, they now cause fewer than five per cent of all deaths. Immunization has played a large role in achieving this result,� she added. McCarey notes it was not that long ago when diseases like diphtheria, polio, tetanus and whooping cough took a deadly toll on people and their families. “Today, because of wide-spread vaccination efforts, illnesses and deaths from vaccine-preventable diseases have been dramatically reduced. However, it is important to stay vigilant. Vaccinepreventable diseases can quickly return.� She points to the recent detection of measles cases in southern Ontario and other parts of the country, especially in areas where large numbers of people remain unvaccinated. “While measles is relatively rare in Canada thanks to high vaccination rates, measles cases do occur here, often related to travel to other countries where measles is more common,� McCarey stated. Ontario provides publicly funded vaccines that are recommended for people of all ages to protect against various diseases. More information and a full list of these vaccines are available by visiting <www.ontario.ca/vaccines>. People are also encouraged to check their records to ensure they are up-to-date on vaccines. If unsure about the vaccines they have received, local residents can contact their health care providers or the Health Unit at 1-866-888-4577 or <www.hkpr. on.ca>.

Low-cost rabies clinics a bargain for local pet owners

108 Queen Street. “Protecting your cat or dog against rabies is not just a good idea, it’s the law,” says Atul Jain, Manager of Inspection Services for the health unit’s rabies prevention program. “We hope that the community will take advantage of these low-cost rabies clinics because while it’s rare, when humans develop rabies from infected animals it is almost 100

per cent fatal.” All cats and dogs over three months of age in the county and city must be vaccinated for rabies under provincial law; a conviction for not having an animal properly vaccinated carries a $110 fine per animal. The Ministry of Natural Resource’s aggressive rabies control program has dramatically reduced the incidence of rabies in foxes, skunks and raccoons in Ontario, the health unit notes. In 2013, there were 28 confirmed rabies cases in Ontario, 27 in bats and one dog in northern Ontario. Bats, like other mammals, can transmit rabies to dogs and cats. There are eight species of bats in Ontario each of which has its own strain of rabies. “Pet vaccination and the provincial baiting program are still required to keep rabies at bay for the protection of Ontario families,” the health unit says. Rabies is a deadly disease of the central nervous system that affects humans and other mammals. The virus is concentrated in the saliva of a rabid animal and can spread through a bite, cut or scratch or if the saliva comes in contact with the moist tissues of the mouth, nose or eyes. There is no known treatment for rabies once the symptoms appear; the disease can’t be treated but can be prevented through vaccination. All animal bites or other cases of suspected rabies exposure must be reported to the health unit. The health unit investigates every report it receives. Last year the County-City Health Unit investigated 258 cases. The health unit offers some tips to stay safe: do not feed wild animals and stay at a safe distance when observing

Change of Command held for Honourary Colonel of 8 ACCS

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Outgoing Honorary Colonel Maureen Piercy, president of Loyalist College, has been replaced by local businessman Bernie Ouellet. The Change of Command ceremony was held at 8 Air Communication and Control Squadron (8 ACCS) on April 25. “We are very proud of our unique culture and history,” said 8 ACCS Commanding Officer Major Jeff Szumlanksi. He said the squadron celebrates its 45th anniversary this year. The primary role of the team has been to provide air transportable navigational aids, tactical communications, landing aids facilities and air traffic control

support in worldwide operations. He noted there have been 246 Canadians named as honorary colonels since 1970 to help foster “esprit de corps” and build relationships between the base and its communities. He was proud to say that 14 of these were women, some as well known as Roberta Bondar and singer Loreena McKennitt. Maureen Piercy has been honorary colonel of 8 ACCS since 2009. “It’s like having a first child,” he said, “seeing everything through their eyes.” He noted that Piercy had to have a little help with her uniform at the beginning. “Her husband had to tie her first tie,” he said with a smile. Piercy said she was honoured

and touched, privileged to have the opportunities over the past five years. “It was an opportunity to know the ‘Gypsies’ and learn about their technical skills and passionate commitment,” she said. She saw them work in Haiti, the G20, Resolute Bay, Afghanistan and Syria. They were involved in a rescue mission when a tragic civilian air disaster in Alert showed their exemplary teamwork. Piercy said she has stood side by side during the repatriations on the Highway of Heroes, and at the Afghanistan Memorial. “It has been a remarkable, powerful experience,” she said. Incoming honorary colonel Bernie Ouellet has been in the

transportation business since 1970 and is involved in the community through charities and organizations and is chair of the Loyalist College Foundation. “Everything is so organized here,” he said. “My name is on the water bottle! Mine has vodka in it.” Ouelett added, “I have butterflies. But now in this uniform, they’re flying in formation.” He said he was deeply honoured to be appointed honorary colonel of 8 ACCS. “My parents would be so proud,” he said. He said his father was discharged in 1946 after the war.

Healthy Half Marathon beats the cold weather Life Marathon in Toronto. “Last year we ran around the bay,” Bonn added. “I just turned 40 so it was a celebration.

Bonn said the Healthy Half Marathon is great for the community. “We love the course, the pavement and trail,” he said with a smile. Other participants were just as enthused about the opportunity

to enjoy their sport and help the hospital. Emma, three, and Madison, one, watched their father in the Half Marathon. Lisa Lueck said last year she ran with her husband Michael, with the children in the three-wheel stroller, but not this year. “We have one more on the way,” she said. “Maybe next year.” Robin Pilon had a lot of support too. “For the second year in a row, Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club supports the Quinte West Half Marathon to raise money for the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation

by encouraging walkers and runners to participate with them,” she said. She had support from 436 Squadron CO Mark Goulden with his two sons and YMCA general manager Ron Riddell along with Marc Roy, Janet Parker, Angela and John Smylie. And her little dog took part too, running ahead on his leash as fast as his little legs would go. The Mayor’s Walk at the end of the other races included the mayor walking with three St. John Ambulance attendants close behind. Fortunately, they all returned safely.

Over 150 runners and walkers participated in the Healthy Half Marathon.

News - Hastings - Despite one theft, Wendy Baggs is determined to have more “Turtle Crossing” signs installed in “hot spot” areas around Trent Hills, especially near Hastings where she lives. Erecting the vivid yellow signs is the least she and other like-minded environmental advocates can do to support the seven species (there are eight in Ontario) of native turtles people might come across

in the Trent-Severn Waterway region. Four of those species are threatened, one is endangered and two more are of special concern. Habitat degradation, including shoreline disruption, human encroachment, pollution and road injuries are among the chief reasons Ontario’s turtles are under siege, says Baggs who is also a volunteer with Peterborough’s renowned Kawartha Turtle Trauma Centre (KTTC) which has recently moved

Security upgrade at community centre approved

in readiness for the new splashpad that News - Norwood - The security camera system at the will be built in the nearby park for this Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre will be upgraded summer. Township council approved the outlay of $1,450 for the system upgrade and an additional $200 that would allow the system to be connected to the arena manager’s home. The current system is able to run eight cameras with seven currently in use; the eighth camera is intended to be used to keep watch over the splashpad. With the upgrade the system will have its potential camera capacity doubled to 16 with nearly one month’s worth of memory capability. In earlier discussions about the security system, the lack of extended memory was brought up as an issue. The additional $1,450 cost can be covered from the parks reserve, arena manager Greg Hartwick told council. The eighth camera could actually be mounted on the splashpad building, Hartwick said, adding that he had yet to see a design for the building. “The building will be too high for anyone to climb on,” CAO Joe van Koeverden said. The cost for the high-resolution camera to be installed for splashpad security is $700. By Bill Freeman

Sports - Norwood - The Norwood District Figure Skating Club rolled out some shiny trophies and certificates of achievement during a gala Friday night awards celebration that capped a “wonderful year.” With 78 skaters of all ages taking to the ice this past season, the NDSC had every right to dole out accolades and applause. “The kids did great; we had a lot of kids move up from the level they started out from,” club president Cindy Chamberlain told The Independent. “Hopefully we’re going to grow those intermediate-seniors a little bit more and keep things moving for them.” There were 29 youngsters registered in the Pre-Canskate Junior program and another 22 in the Canskate Junior division; nine skaters were part of the Canskate Senior program, eight in the Canskate Intermediate and five Starskate Seniors. “We really enjoyed this year,” said The Norwood District Skating Club presented Bank of Montreal Spirit of Chamberlain, excited by the numbers.

Lange & Fetter Ford grand re-opening a celebration three generations in the making

From left, Aaron Lange with his baby son Elijay, Mike Herniak, John Fetter, Rick Lange and Stephanie Lange celebrate the dealership’s receiving of the Golden Shovel Award.

Staff, friends and family of Lange & Fetter Motors, including Quinte West Mayor John Williams (with the scissors), cut a ribbon to mark the opening of the dealership’s new headquarters.

Members of the Lange & Fetter Motors Ford dealership cut a blue ribbon to celebrate the opening of their new location on Wednesday, April 23 in front of a packed house of friends, family members and local dignitaries. It was a celebration of cars, customers, and the dealership’s deep-rooted commitment to the Trenton community. Lange & Fetter first opened at 52 Dundas St. E., just east of the downtown bridge, in 1953 as a Ford dealership, and has stayed at its current location ever since. The construction of its new facility, which includes a bright and spacious showroom as well as lowered living-room-like sales offices, allows it to continue doing business at 52 Dundas St. E. and be part of the municipality’s efforts to grow business downtown. The new headquarters is actually the third building for the dealership. Originally, cars were sold from a small building that also served as a gas station. A new showroom was constructed in 1970 to better serve the growing business. Plans for the current building began a couple years ago and construction was completed this winter, not long before Wednesday’s grand re-opening. Interestingly, the family that runs the business is also into a third generation. The dealership was founded by the late Vagn Lange and John Fetter. It’s now owned by Vagn’s son Rick Lange. And Rick’s daughter, Stephanie Lange, is now the sales director. Fetter left the business in the mid 1970s, but the Lange family decided to keep his name on the title as a lasting tribute to his work. The families remain friends and John Fetter, now at age 92, attended the grand re-opening to reminisce with old friends and celebrate the dealership’s success. “It’s beautiful,” Fetter said of the new facility after walking around the showroom and looking at old photographs. “It’s a far cry from what we had.” Rick Lange said he’s proud of the new facility and the fact that the businesses has been able to stay in the same location for more than 60 years. “The location is an excellent location,” he said, noting that it’s easily visible to downtown drivers. “Historically, this is where it started and I was happy to keep it here. I can’t think of a reason to bring it out of downtown. Our customers know where we are.” Lange believes part of the reason why the business has lasted is because customers appreciate buying cars from a family-run operation that can offer consistent staff. The dealership employees about 35 workers, including people in sales and service and many of them have been with the dealership for several years. When asked what the secret to success is, Lange gave a frank and honest answer. “I don’t think there’s any magic; it’s just been a matter of trying to stay current and offering quality service,” he said, noting that the service does not stop once the customer buys a car. The staff and service team work to ensure they get the most out of their vehicle. The fact that the dealership sells quality vehicles, helps, too. Lange said he’s also proud of the fact that the dealership has remained with Ford all this time, noting the auto company’s innovation and ability to always turn out new products. In a speech as part of the grand re-opening celebration, Mike Herniak, Ford’s general manager for Eastern Market, pointed out that Ford has been the top selling automobile brand in Canada for the past four years. One of its signature products, the F150 pick up truck, continues to be a top seller, but the company expects to put out several new models over the next year. This success, Herniak said, is thanks to customers and dealership owners and staff members, such as those at Lange & Fetter Motors, who are committed to the products. “The thing that differentiates us from others is that we’re still a family run company,” Herniak said. When Rick Lange spoke at the podium, he thanked his staff, customers, and municipal officials who worked with them on the redevelopment of, not only the lot, but the stretch of Dundas Street East. It was repaved and widened recently to make room for the new dealership and other businesses. “I hope we’re here for another 60 years,” he said.

“I don’t think there’s any magic; it’s just been a matter of trying to stay current and offering quality service.”

It’s the second time in the past ten years a Knights team has won Kawartha and COSSA title in the same season. Rounding out the senior charge at COSSA were the mixed pairs duo of Travis Bennett and Kate Oliver who finished third, Braidon Thompson and Jake Bennett, fifth in doubles, and Jared Widdis, seventh in the men’s singles. At the junior COSSA tourney in Haliburton, the team of Nicole

Bennett and Hayden Baptie took silver. “It’s a big accomplishment to do that,” coach Jeff Winslow said of the Kawartha and COSSA team titles. “I had the feeling we had a lot of dedicated players this year and a lot of talent; that combined and I just rode their coat tails. They had their ‘A’ game when it counted.” “They went in confident but not cocky,” Winslow said. “They put a lot of work in on the court and they have a lot of experience; when you do that you put yourself in a position to do well when it matters,” he said. Winslow thinks the mixed team of Baptie and Widdis is “strong enough” to challenge for a medal in “B” Flight and that Smith and Reed also have a chance in sticking with the “B” Flight. “It all depends on the matchups,” he added. Because of their experience Winslow says he’d be “surprised if they were very nervous. “If they are it will take all of two or three minutes to get into the groove and focus on the task which

is to win as much as you can.” This will be Baptie’s third straight OFSAA appearance. “It’s pretty exciting to finish Grade 12 this way,” the Havelock resident and Ontario Winter Games silver medallist said. “We’ll definitely be pulling on our ‘A’ game. More excitement goes towards it being Dan’s first [trip to OFSAA].” Smith says she and Reed are going in with lots of confidence. “We know what to expect.” OFSAA is an “awesome experience,” says Reed. “At first you get nervous but then you calm down.” “I’m pumped to go; we’ve been trying pretty hard to get there,” Widdis added. “I’ll be nervous but once the game starts up I’ll be fine and it will be like any other game.” As a side note, Winslow pointed out that all three of the Bennetts, Travis, Jake and Nicole, qualified for COSSA this year. Travis is the first NDHS badminton player ever to qualify for COSSA from Grade 9 through 12.

where a soldier sits writing false identity cards for the escape. As a former POW, Al Wallace, now 93, said it brought back memories. “They made us get out of the camp when they heard the Russians coming,â€? he said. “We slept in barns or outside. It was a tough time. There was a foot of snow. All we had was what we carried on our back or in a sleigh.â€? He said they were evacuated again when they heard the British army getting closer, forced to walk for days in the countryside. “I had a blanket, my gray coat, some food and cigarettes,â€? he said. “We all smoked.â€? Al says he lives in a condo on the 14th oor in Richmond Hill now. “It’s a lot more comfortable,â€? he says with a smile. “I enjoyed ying the Halifax,â€? he adds, looking up at the massive restored Halifax in the museum. “I did 15 and a half trips. I only count the last one as half because the plane went down.â€? Al says he was stationed in Yorkshire with 419 Moose Squadron. “The motors on the Halifax were Merlins,â€? he said, “made by Rolls Royce. They were the early ones. After that they made them better, more dependable.â€? He says all his former crew are gone now. Please see “Great Escapeâ€? page B8

News - Quinte West - When Al Wallace was only 23 years old, he had to endure 18 months in a prison camp in Germany. “We parachuted out of the Halifax,â€? he said, at the opening of the Great Escape display at the National Air Force Museum of Canada on April 24. “We had to. It was on ďŹ re.â€? He said ďŹ ve of the crew got out, but the pilot and wireless operator went down with the plane. The ďŹ ve were taken to prison camps. Al, who was the

mid upper gunner, and the bomb aimer, were taken to a separate camp for pilot ofďŹ cers. It was Stalag Luft-3. This is the stalag where the notorious Great Escape took place in 1944, when 76 Allied Prisoners of War (POW) dug through a tunnel and got out. Tragically, only three of them made it home, while 50 were executed and 23 were sent back to camp. The new display at the museum shows a life-like depiction on two levels, from a man tunnelling through the ground, up to a room (Hut 104) on the mezzanine

Paddlers ride the rapids during MACKfest Photos: Stephen Petrick

Justin Bouwman, a paddler from the Kitchener area, moves down an area of the Black River during MACKfest.

News - Marmora - The springtime roar of rapids on local rivers was even more colourful and exciting than normal this weekend. Dozens of paddlers took to Hastings County waterways April 26 and 27 to celebrate the Marmora Area Canoe and Kayak Festival (MACKfest), an annual April event to mark the start of the paddling season. The weather was chilly and the sky was grey, but the paddlers were enthusiastic to be on the fast-flowing rivers, many of which were roaring and filled with white-foam forming waterfalls. They took to the upper and lower Black River, Beaver Creek, Crowe River, the Moira River and Skootamatta River. All were well higher

for profit, but rather to boost the local tourism economy; something that’s not difficult to do considering the area is known as a paddling hotspot and paddlers from across Canada come to the area and stay at resorts frequently through the season. While calm summer paddling, has its

benefits, most paddlers find spring is the most exciting time to be on the water, Lawson added. And this spring, the season has started late, owing to the cold weather. “That’s why there’s such a buzz about this year,� she said. “People have been waiting to paddle.�

than normal after an abominable winter and a significant spring melt. “Most people cringe at flooding,� said Manny Lawson, a head organizer for the event, commenting on the recent area conditions. “We get excited.� Lawson is a member of the Kawartha Whitewater Paddlers, which launched the festival about eight years ago. It started out small and has grown significantly over the years, Lawson said. She was speaking at Bunkers Hideaway, a resort just outside Marmora, which hosted festival participants for an early morning get-together Saturday, before they headed to any of the several recommended courses. The paddlers also met there at the end of the day for dinner and evening entertainment. A few dozen had gathered at the resort early Saturday morning; some even camped outside in the crisp weather. Many of them, Lawson said, are members of paddling clubs elsewhere in the province. She said many of the participants were from locations such as Ottawa, Barrie and Kitchener. The event, she said, is not intended This kayaker grips his paddle hard to put on the brakes after moving down rapids on Black River.

64th Festival of Praise coming to a close

R0012575552

The choir from host St. Paul’s United Church let their voices be heard during the Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise. The Stars of The senior choir from St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Stirling was among the entries performing last weekend at the 64th the Festival concert, featuring some of the top performers, is scheduled for May 9 at 7 p.m. Annual Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise. The festival, held at St. Paul’s United Church and the Stirling Festival Theatre, wraps up Friday. By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - Now celebrating its 64th year, the twoweek-long Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise is coming to a close tomorrow after singers, musicians and orators of all ages and experience levels performed for audiences and professional adjudicators in various classes. Held under the auspices of the official board of St. Paul’s United Church and the Stirling Festival Committee, the annual festival continues to promote a love of sacred praise while maintaining a strong focus on encouraging the continued participation of boys, girls and young people, says committee president Donna Russett. Vocal, instrumental and scripture classes are presented at both St. Paul’s and the Stirling Festival Theatre as part of the regional competition with top finishers eligible to proceed to the provincial level. But, notes Russett, the spirit of the event is as much

about encouraging learning and personal growth in each of the individual participants as it is about providing opportunities for further competition. Professional adjudicators offer valuable feedback as well as tips and ideas to improve presentations, she says, adding it’s not only the seasoned performers who benefit. And many participants who begin as youngsters return year after year. As well, Russett says, the festival has been very fortunate to have such well-qualified judges providing both encouragement and advice. And this year, she says, is no different. Adjudicators at the 64th Annual festival include Oshawa-based opera singer Kristine Dandavino overseeing vocal classes, Ottawa-born cellist Samuel Bisson adjudicating string instruments, bands, brass and woodwinds, Toronto/ Hamilton pianist David Story providing insights for participants in piano classes and

scripture adjudicator the Reverend Barbara Willard. The festival regularly draws participants from Peterborough, Belleville and Napanee as well as from the immediate area and over the years Russett has seen thousands of singers and musicians perform. And each year Russett remains impressed by the calibre of talent shown by the many groups and individuals who take to the stage. This year’s edition of the annual competition opened last Tuesday morning (April 22) with piano classes, followed by scripture and vocal classes later in the week. Band and string classes run tomorrow to close out the festival. Russett, who was one of the young participants in the first Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise more than 60 years ago, is currently marking her tenth year as committee president. And while her involvement was lessened during the raising of her own family, she says, she has always been a strong supporter of the annual event. The official festival is expected to close at about 9 p.m. tomorrow with the Stars of the Festival concert scheduled for Friday, May 9, at 7 p.m. at St. Paul’s. The Stars concert is a regular feature of the festival and is also open to the public. Presented after the final adjudications, the celebratory concert offers a restaging of some of the top performances. Admission to the Stars concert is $3 for adults and 50 cents for children. Full details are available on the Internet at stirlingfestival.com.

Beware of emerald ash borer News - Belleville - Quinte Conservation will be warning local municipalities about the dangers of the emerald ash borer. The decision was made at last week’s board meeting. Communications Manager Jennifer May-Anderson says, “The Quinte Conservation watersheds are now in the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s Emerald Ash Borer regulated area. We could see an infestation within the next five to ten years. Developing an emerald ash borer management plan is essential to maintaining tree cover within built-up areas and minimizing associated costs of the infestation.” May-Anderson adds, “Our board wants to inform our municipalities about the risks of an emerald ash borer infestation so they can create a plan to address this serious issue that makes the most sense for each of them.” There are many ash trees along municipal streets, in municipal parks and green spaces within cities, towns and villages in the Quinte Conservation watersheds.

TRAVEL

Touring the fascinating tunnels of Moose Jaw

The entrance to the Tunnels of Moose Jaw tours.

A Moose Jaw motel is linked to Al Capone.

In Moose Jaw, you’ll be greeted by a Snowbird plane and Mac the Moose.

Lifestyles - In the early days of the 20th century, the majority of the large buildings in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, were being heated by steam. Therefore, it was decided to create a network of tunnels linking these buildings together so that equipment and supplies could easily be moved from building to building without having to almost freeze to death outside during the harsh prairie winter. At about that same time, many Chinese immigrants had begun to arrive in Moose Jaw, where they worked for very low wages. In order to survive, many of these immigrants adopted the tunnel system as both their living quarters and workplaces. Sadly, many of these men were simply working on the tunnels themselves or in underground sweatshops (laundries, burlap factories, etc.), trying to survive -and hoping to save enough money to eventually be joined in Canada by their family members. They were often not treated well at all, merely being used as cheap labour. Those days are gone now, but the “Passage to Fortune” tour that I took in these tunnels described the poignant history of Chinese immigrants very vividly. I was saddened to learn about the bigotry present in this era and that was another important factor in many of them staying underground for they weren’t accepted by some of the locals, as there seemed to be a lot of anti-Chinese sentiment. I learned that many of these men had been charged a large fee just to get to Canada and then they had to work long, arduous hours to simply pay off this debt (arranged through what was known as a coolie broker) before even attempting to have a better life here in Canada. Many, of course, never did get beyond this agonizing point! As I toured through this maze of tunnels, the guide said that these immigrants often worked a 12-16 hour shift for about 35 cents and then they were

charged part of this wage to simply crash in crowded, unventilated bunk rooms located within the tunnels. My guide continued by stating that this reality was a moral blemish in Canadian history. As I went from tunnel to tunnel, I passed some of these work areas and businesses and could imagine the horrid working conditions that they encountered. I also saw a former opium den, where some of the more discouraged would try to escape their grim reality. As time went by, this “Chinese era” was replaced by the Prohibition era, and the tunnels then provided a great place to hide forbidden liquor and for brothels and gambling. It’s believed that mobsters made millions out of this location. The illegal liquor was said to have been exported into the U.S., particularly Chicago, by rail. Moose Jaw was nicknamed “Little Chicago”, and rumours spread that perhaps Al Capone himself spent some time in these tunnels; after all, organized crime seemed ram-

pant and Moose Jaw was touted as the “Sin Capital of the Prairies” at this time. A local barber, now deceased, even mentioned that he used to cut Al’s hair and another claimed to have been Al’s paper boy. Perhaps these connections with Al Capone are true or perhaps they’re simply urban legends or tall tales, but some locals began talking about these and even today there’s a motel in downtown Moose Jaw known as Capone’s Hideaway. Well, after the bootlegging industry died down at the end of Prohibition, the tunnels apparently fell into disuse. Eventually, some enterprising people decided to use the tunnels for tours and “Passage to Fortune” and “The Chicago Connection” both began. “The Chicago Connection” is the lighter, more entertaining tour but perhaps less factual. On this journey into the tunnels, I was led by Gus, supposedly security for Big Al and Fanny, Al’s supposed decorator and bookkeeper. These two actors dressed in mobster-style costumes, took

us through a myriad of tunnels and secret passageways, behind shelves, etc., and past exit signs where there was no exit. We entered Miss Fanny’s Club, passed several cases of illegal liquor and a collection of guns, and then entered into Al’s office. We were told about the illegal activities that had allegedly taken place here under the direction of Al himself, and there was even an anecdote about Al playing golf in the Moose Jaw area. Gus said that he always carried a gun with him, so there was a 45 in his golf bag at the time. When Our costumed guide leads us on “The Chicago Connection” tour. he went to put back his putter, the gun accidentally fired and shot Big Al in both legs! It was a hole in two! The tunnel tours are almost an COACH & TOURS hour in length each, and they’re available daily except Dec. 25, and the prices per tour are $15 adult, $12 senior, $11.50 youth, $8.50 child 6-1), and it’s free for 5 and under. To combine both tours, the prices are $25, $21, $20, and $14. Group rates are also available (www.tunnelsofmoosejaw.com). Freddy Vette’s Heart of Rock & Roll Tour - May 3-10/14

Quinte Conservation warns of emerald ash borer

Continued from page B4

community, it spreads rapidly. Trees attacked by the emerald ash borer typically die within one to three years. Costs associated with an emerald ash borer infestation include the treatment, removal, and replacement of trees. Benefits of urban trees include the provision of oxygen, reduction of pollution, conservation

of water, prevention of soil erosion, provision of food and shelter for wildlife and moderation of climate. Trees also increase property values and contribute to the quality of life in a neighbourhood. Ash has a high tolerance of salt, poor soils and air pollution, which makes it a valuable component of the urban forest. In 2002 the emerald ash borer

was first detected in Ontario near Windsor. As of March 2014 there have been no confirmed cases of emerald ash borer in Hastings, Prince Edward, and Lennox and Addington Counties. It has been confirmed in Northumberland and Frontenac Counties. More information about Quinte Conservation is available at www. quinteconservation.ca.

Mutual aid expands across county borders The city of Belleville provided 6,000 News - Trent Hills - A new partnership was forged between sandbags to the municipality. Mutual Aid systems in Northumberland and Hastings coun“That really bailed us out,” Trent Hills Fire ties last week in response to the flooding that took place in Chief Tim Blake said. “We would have got the Trent Hills. job done but it would have been an extraordinary feat to fill the bags and place them [in a timely manner].” They “saved our guys a lot of work by having them bagged,” he said. “It was a tremendous help.” By going outside the county to help in By John Campbell

unusual circumstances, “we actually did something in uncharted territory,” Blake said. The assistance was arranged by his alternate as Northumberland’s Mutual Aid co-ordinator, Cobourg Deputy Fire Chief Gene Thompson, who got in touch with his counterpart in Belleville, Deputy Fire Chief Bruce Greatrix. There “wasn’t a real need” for the surplus sandbags in Belleville after the Moira River had dropped a foot-and-a-half, Thompson said. “It’s rare that we go across counties but it

does happen,” Greatrix said. Blake said firefighters and public works staff worked eight straight days preparing and putting sandbags in place. They were helped one day last week by five firefighters from each of the county’s municipal fire departments, who were also “on emergency standby right from the start … ready to respond at any given time in case we had to get into an evacuation situation,” he said. “We didn’t know what the water levels were going to do.”

Great Lakes gets a boost with federal cleanup funding By Kate Everson

From the left Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake thanked Belleville Deputy Fire Chief Bruce Greatrix and Cobourg Deputy Fire Chief Gene Thompson for their help in arranging for 6,000 surplus sandbags being delivered from Belleville to Trent Hills. They were used to build dykes around homes where flooding was taking place. Photo: John Campbell

News - Quinte West - With the Bay of Quinte as a backdrop, federal representative Dr. Colin Carrie from the Ministry of the Environment announced the government’s commitment to cleaning up the Great Lakes. “We need to protect and restore Canada’s Great Lakes,” he told a small group at the Bay of Quinte Country Club on Old Highway 2 on April 23. He said there are 31 environmental cleanup projects in the Great Lakes valued at $1.88 million, funded by the Great Lakes Sustainability Fund. “We have a shared goal with our partners, the conservation authorities, the municipalities and the province of Ontario to clean up all remaining areas,” he said. Terry Murphy, general manager from Quinte Conservation and co-chair of the Remedial Action Plan Restoration Council, said they are close to de-listing the Bay of Quinte.

“The fish are edible,” he said. “But we have more work to do.” He said they are monitoring the bay now. “We can’t just walk away,” he said. “The Bay of Quinte is so important to this area, especially to tourism.” Glenda Rodgers, general manager from Lower Trent Conservation and co-chair of the Remedial Action Plan Restoration Council, said they have been working on restoring the bay since 1990. Seven issues have been addressed and five beneficial use impairments have been utilized such as dredging. “By 2017 we hope to de-list the Bay from an Area of Concern,” she said. “The work is not yet done. There are emerging issues and new challenges. We want to keep the Bay of Quinte healthy and vibrant.” MP Rick Norlock said he likes fishing during walleye season. “I tell people if it’s under six pounds I throw it back,” he said with a laugh.

Lifestyles - The Friends of Presqu’ile Park are pleased to announce that, yes after a long, cold winter, that spring is finally here! While birds have been trickling back north for a couple of months, the big wave of tens of thousands of songbirds and shorebirds that migrate through Presqu’ile Provincial Park, will be arriving in May. These are some of the most beautiful and sought after birds for birdwatchers and this weekend is packed with activities designed to introduce visitors to these birds and the fine art of bird watching. On both Saturday, May 17 and Sunday, May 18 we will start out with an ultra early bird walk for the ultra keen at 6:30 a.m. from the Lighthouse Centre. Want to sleep a bit longer? We will also offer a repeat bird walk starting at 10 a.m. from the Lighthouse Centre. “Warblers are often called the “jewels of the forest” for their varied and beautiful colours,” says Park Naturalist David Bree, “but they can be a challenge to see. Our experts can help you find and identify some of the 20+ species likely present in the park this weekend. While bird watching is best in the early morning, there is usually some activity all day during migration and we should see birds on our later walks as well as the early ones.” There will be a guided walk starting from the Owen Point Trail parking lot at 2 p.m. to seek out shorebirds. Bree goes on to say, “With this walk we are going to the other end of the birding spectrum. Warblers are often hidden, shorebirds stand in the open, Warblers are brightly coloured, shorebirds are beautiful but are subtle tones of brown, grey, and red. Shorebirds too can be a challenge to identify, but having a guide with a spotting scope will help visitors get a good look at these fascinating creatures. These are true long-distance migrants; many are travelling from southern South America to the Canadian Arctic and are only stopping a few days at Presqu’ile to refuel.” The highlight for many will be a bird banding demonstration at the Owen Point Trail parking lot from 8 a.m. until noon courtesy of Elizabeth Kellogg and Roger Frost, licensed bird banders. This will allow visitors an unprecedented chance to see birds up close and learn how and why birds are banded. This activity is weather dependent for the safety of the

The joy of cooking being taught to young people Photos: John Campbell

Public health food worker Pat Stuckless helps Brandon Vau make a watermelon basket.

By John Campbell

News - Brighton - A handful of young people are learning to cook from scratch and discover for themselves the joy it can bring. The four classes arranged by the Beacon Youth Centre are being taught by Pat Stuckless, a public health food worker with the Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit. She introduced the teenagers to basic kitchen tools and how to use knives at the first session and then instructed them last week on how to make a bean and lentil salsa, fruit salad, bruschetta and nacho chips. “It’s all about making it easier [for them],” she said, so they will be more inclined to prepare their own meals and snacks, rather than turn to processed foods that are high in fat and sodium, and can be very expensive. “It’s introducing them to different foods and just letting them have some fun,” Stuckless said. The free lessons are “a great opportunity for kids to learn about cooking,” said Beacon Youth Centre director Rene Schmidt. He announced the drop-in at the plaza on Alice Street has expanded its hours of operation with the addition of two new volunteers. It’s now open on Wednesday, as well as Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

That warms the earth to the flowers delight On the scented breeze of a summer night While the silent moon makes its heavenly flight Or the chilly morn of an autumn day As the painted leaves are blown away.

KENNEDY, Beth - Surrounded by love, Luella Elizabeth Margaret (nee Skinner) died peacefully in her Oshawa, Ontario home on April 19, after a brief, albeit intense affair with cancer. Beth was an only child, born in August, 1946 to George & Myra Skinner (nee BARTLETT) at Toronto General Hospital, Ontario. She enjoyed her childhood in Simcoe, Ontario, often spending much of that time with her many cousins in northern Ontario. After attending Alma College, St. Thomas, she went on to pursue nursing, graduating from the College of Nurses of Ontario, class of 1967. Later that year, she married a handsome Irishman, and moved to Madoc, Ontario where together they owned and operated Lingham Lake Lodge for many years, raising a family and settling locally. After suffering a tragic, debilitating work related injury at Whitby Psychiatric Hospital, she pursued life with a new found vigor, often pushing her disabilities to the limits. Beth loved life, her family and the people around her with an intensity we can only admire. She touched the life of everyone she met in her own unique way and will be sorely missed. She is predeceased by her husband Wayne Kennedy (1944-2004) and survived by her children Rob (Dallas), Sara (Dennis), Angy, and grandchildren Mitchell, Alex and Ayden, and six cats. She will also be lovingly remembered by countless others and everyone who knew her as ‘Mom.’ Visitation will be held at the COURTICE FUNERAL CHAPEL, 1587 Highway #2, Courtice, ON (905-432-8484), on Saturday, May 3rd 2014 from 11am - 1pm followed by a memorial service at 1pm.
