Dave Anderson, Kelly Linton to compete for warden’s seat GUELPH – The next warden of Wellington County will come from either Centre Wellington or Minto. Centre Wellington Mayor Kelly Linton and Ward 1 councillor David Anderson have both announced their intention to seek the warden’s seat for the next twoyear term. “I am putting my name forward as a candidate for warden because I do want to work with this new council and make a positive difference to our communities,� said Linton at the Nov. 29 Wellington County council meeting. Linton, who is entering his second term on county council, added, “We have some challenges that we are faced with and I want us to work together to see some real results. “Council makes decisions that impact the lives of almost 90,000 people in the county and we work hard every day to make sure that we set our priorities, commu-

nicate those priorities and then make decisions to make the County of Wellington an even better place to live and have a business,â€? Linton continued. “Here at the county we’re privileged to have an exceptional CAO, exceptional management team and amazing staff. It’s our job as members of county council to establish the right kind of direction, establish our priorities and make sure we’re getting maximum results for the taxpayer.â€? Anderson, who is set to enter his second term as Ward 1 representative, also served on county council as mayor of the Town of Minto from 2007 to 2010. “I’m really pleased with the direction the county is going now and I’d like to be a part of moving the county towards this path of excellence,â€? said Anderson. “I feel that I would be an excellent representative for the county, ensuring fair and equal representation for all the municipalities ‌ while advancing the concerns of

the county ward.� Anderson added, “When you get into politics it gets in your blood and antibiotics can’t fix this.� He cited strategic planning as a potential concern for the coming term. “There was a lot of talk about a strategic plan moving forward, rather than our current five- and 10-year plans,� he said. “I feel we need to have a thorough discussion on the pros and cons (of the status quo) versus the cost of having a full strategic plan.� Anderson said affordable housing is another area in which the county has a major role to play. “There is universal concern about affordable housing, available housing ... and that’s going to be a concern moving forward,� he said. County councillors will elect the warden in a vote at the inaugural meeting of the new council on Dec. 7. While county and lowertier councillors serve a fouryear term, a new warden is elected every two years.

MAPLETON - A funeral service was held Monday for a young Moorefield man who tragically lost his life in a traffic accident near Drayton last week. At around 4:30pm on Nov. 28 emergency crews responded to a collision involving two vehicles on Wellington Road 8, southeast of Drayton. It was reported that a sedan and pickup truck had collided head-on.

Members of the OPP, Fire/Rescue Mapleton and Guelph Wellington Paramedics Service attended the scene. The driver of the sedan, Lukas Popovic, 20, of Moorefield, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the pickup truck, a 35-year-old local man, was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The road was closed for several hours while technical collision investigators collected evidence. The cause of the crash is under investigation. The OPP are asking anyone who may have witnessed the collision to call 1-888-3101122. A funeral service was held for Popovic on Dec. 3 at Erb and Good Family Funeral Home in Waterloo.

$7,000. Bushey advised council that while the RFP called for annual coverage “likely to be renewed for a period of three years,� the township may choose to extend the agreement beyond three years by two further one-year terms, or terminate at any point. He said the insurer can also terminate the agreement, “typically for reasons of non-payment of premium – that’s not going to happen. “We can terminate for any reason and we can terminate on the day we choose to do it,� Bushey stated. Councillor Marlene Ottens asked if the township’s insurance would continue to be locally brokered through Brown Insurance. “It was believed by administration that Brown Insurance had given very good service at the broker level and that if we were potentially making a change that the continuity of broker would was an important piece,� Bushey explained, adding the four insurers were advised prior to submitting their proposals that “Brown’s would be Mapleton’s broker.� Council authorized staff to obtain insurance through AON Reed Stenhouse.

MAPLETON – The township will be saving thousands of dollars on insurance in 2019 after testing the market through the request for proposals (RFP) process. At the Sept. 25 meeting, council authorized staff to engage consultant Randy Bushey to assist with an RFP preparation and design, including a review, comparison and ranking system, and a final recommendation to council. Bushey’s report, presented to council on Nov. 25, indicated all four primary players in the municipal insurance market in Ontario submitted proposals: Mapleton’s current insurance provider Frank Cowan Company, BFL Canada, JLT Canada, and AON Reed Stenhouse. “That was a reflection of the fact that Mapleton is considered to be a very good insurance account,� Bushey told council. “That’s a compliment to you because that’s a reflection that the administration and council runs this township very well, that the loss history has been very good. “Each of the proposals was very strong.�

After ranking the four proposals for factors such as cost of premiums and scope of coverage, Bushey recommended council instruct staff to begin the process of transitioning to AON Reed Stenhouse as the general insurance provider for Mapleton beginning Jan. 1. A report from Mapleton financial analyst Larry Wheeler indicates the AON proposal calls for a premium of $160,011 in 2019, which represents considerable savings for the township. “The total cost of acquiring municipal insurance at the Township of Mapleton has been rather steeply increasing over the past few years,� Wheeler stated in his report. “Our total spend in 2018 of roughly $233,000 is approximately 25 per cent higher than was our 2013 total premium expense, an average increase of five per cent per annum. Assuming the unlikely scenario in which our 2019 insurance premium did not increase, our savings will be approximately $73,000 in the first year.� CAO Manny Baron told the Community News the consulting costs are anticipated to come in between $5,000 and

seek re-election after serving her first term on council, complimented township staff for their efforts. “I can’t say thank you enough for the answers to all my questions,� said Woodham, who also thanked staff “for working with me, walking me through things.

“I truly believe that we have the best staff working at Mapleton Township by far,â€? she added. Woodham also expressed appreciation for her fellow council members. “I really enjoyed working with each one of you. I’m SEE WOODHAM Âť 3

DRAYTON - In the spirit of the old song Bless This House, local residents are being offered an opportunity to bless the households of many in the local community this Christmas. The Bless This House project is again collecting new household and personal items and treats to fill housewarming gift baskets that will be distributed through the Drayton Food Bank to Mapleton township residents in need of a little extra cheer this season. Each family that receives a food bank hamper will also receive a house warming gift basket for the household they represent. Community Christian School in Drayton was invited to join with Bless This House in collecting items for the gift baskets. Donations could include: fleecy blankets, socks, stationary, books, homemade dishcloths, decorative bathroom and kitchen items, family-night games and treats. Donated items can be brought to the school or sent with students and may be placed in the bin located in the school foyer until the morning of Dec. 14. The bin will be brought to Community Mennonite Fellowship that day during the first nutrition break. Contact Kim Frere at 519638-2257 or kfrere71@gmail. com with questions or suggestions.

Woodham thanks council, staff, citizens » FROM PAGE 1

positive I’ve said to each one of you - ‘In all due respect I have to disagree’ - but I think that’s democracy and I think, as a whole, this council has had some excellent debates and, at the end of the day, I think that we made the decision that we found was best for our citizens in Mapleton Township and that’s something I’m proud of.” Woodham continued, “I believe public service is a rewarding, challenging endeavour. It takes patience, broad vision and sometimes courage - I think I should change that to all-the-time courage - to ensure that concerns of our citizens are handled in an attentive and fair and balanced manner. “I would also like to

thank residents of Mapleton Township, of course, for their vote four years ago to give me this opportunity to serve on council.” Woodham also thanked her family “for your patience as I studied agenda items from Thursday night until Sunday. “Weekends sometimes got away on me and perhaps sometimes I didn’t participate in family events,” she noted. Councillor Dennis Craven said, “You will be missed around here, Lori. You will be missed.” “Personally it’s been a fantastic learning experience sitting here beside you, covering the west side of this horseshoe,” said councillor Michael Martin.

The 2019 to 2022 council, which will also include mayor-elect Gregg Davidson and councillor-elect Paul Douglas, was sworn in at the inaugural meeting of Mapleton council on Dec. 3.

EDITORIAL

is on his way!

By Patrick Raftis

Low expectations If the secret to success really is low expectations, perhaps there will be a measure by which the Ontario government’s recently-unveiled climate change plan can be judged an accomplishment. That the Ford government’s plan, rolled out last week, is incredibly unambitious should hardly be surprising. Climate change is so low on their priority list they didn’t ever bother to offer the bare bones of a policy during the election campaign that brought them to office, preferring instead to promise to dismantle Ontario’s cap and trade system and fight the federal government’s planned carbon tax, even though both measures would have benefited the province’s treasury. Scrapping cap and trade is projected to cost the Ontario government $3 billion in revenue over the next four years and they have set aside $50 million to fight the carbon tax. The feds, for their part, will now proceed to impose a carbon tax, which would not have occurred had cap and trade been left in place, and distribute funds raised directly to Ontarians, rather than provincial government coffers. Instead of the cap and trade approach of placing a price on pollution to be paid by polluters, the PCs are proposing a $400 million fund of tax dollars to be distributed as incentives to essentially pay businesses to come up with green technology. How this will be spun as different from subsidizing producers of alternative energy, as the last government was lambasted for, will be interesting to watch. At any rate, instead of polluting businesses bearing the expense, individual taxpayers will pick up the tab to pay polluters for what many pundits are describing as yet another corporate welfare program. Among the ironies in the plan is its stated goal of reducing Ontario’s emissions to 30 per cent below 2005 levels by 2030, a target about 25% less ambitious than what the previous government was aiming for. It won’t take much to hit the new goal because Ontario’s current emissions are already 22% below 2005 levels. The irony is we got there mostly by dint of the much-maligned Liberals’ successful effort to take coalburning out of Ontario’s energy equation, a costly endeavour that allowed the Ford folks to make hydro prices a major election issue. It’s also worth noting the new “targets” are just that. The plan comes with no guarantees and reports indicate emissions have actually continued to rise under similar plans adopted by other governments, including Australia and Saskatchewan. Looks like another win “For the People,” provided the people weren’t expecting a whole lot.

Perth-Wellington MPP Randy Pettapeice was also able to get the light structure warning through legislation, so we hopefully don’t lose any more firefighters. Things like this are near and dear to my heart after being a firefighter myself for several years. Say, how about that? All these people are Conservatives and some people would have you believe that these people don’t care about the rest of us. Greg Hammond, Moorefield

By Laurie Langdon

Meet God Our Father I Unconfined and Unbounded My Heavenly Father exists beyond everything as the One “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” (Rev. 1:8) He is unconfined and unbounded by anything outside himself. He has made everything that exists and he is in control of it. He is even in control of himself. The only influences that can have an impact on him are those that are in conformity with his nature. He cannot and will not be manipulated by any other force or person except himself. Because I have been recreated in his image, I too am unconfined and unbounded. The influences of my culture do not determine who I am and what I am capable of. Neither do the influences of religion, family, personality, economics, etc. Whatever state or condition I find

myself in, I can anticipate a new revelation of his nature and personality which is more beautiful, wonderful and precious than ever. And I can also anticipate that this nature and personality will be reproduced in me in and through the work of the person of Holy Spirit. Things Meaningful Four things are becoming very meaningful to me. • I am being transformed. I have been set on a new course by Holy Spirit and by God’s word within me. As I “receive the gift of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:38) everything that he is being poured into me. My heavenly Father never requires that I meet his standards or come to his level. It is and always will be true that he comes to me, to be to me what he is and to become the nature in me that I was created to have. It is what and who he is in me that will allow me to fulfill my destiny, never what I can become in

myself. I do not move to him; he moves to me, and into me. Hence everything I am and do is an expression of his nature within me. • My heavenly Father is my delight, and I am his. As I get farther along my journey of serving him, I am realizing that I am moving farther away from the dogma of having to conform to the expectations of a society or perform according to the experience of others, no matter how incredible those experiences may be. What is done by others is theirs to own. How others experience their father God is their experience to cherish. Trying to copy them will never be a joy to me. I will be bored. It is and always will be my truest and greatest pleasure to experience my Father according to my individual temperament, uniquely, as my “Lord and my God” (John 20:28) – and in times and manners in which I am absolutely convinced that it is him. It may even be in strange ways, ways that my

glory. The current “real” world is not real. It will tell me the opposite. It will show me the ugly, the dirty, the hopeless, the crime, the disease and the dying. But the wonder of his constant presence is this: in the midst of this blatant state of existence, God, in splendor, reveals himself, in loving kindness he draws me close and in mercy and grace he transforms me and crowns me “with love and compassion.” (Ps. 103:4) • My heavenly Father satisfies my desires “with good things.” (Ps. 103:5) He is able to satisfy my desires because he made my desires. He is the actual and absolute fulfillment of all my created yearnings, everything I hope to be and the secret to all of life. He is my delight, and now, in Christ, I enter into the actual fulfillment of everything I was created to be. He is the fun I enjoy, the gratification I crave, the comfort I need – he is everything in everything.

You see, up to this point I honestly had never considered the fact that God would be present in such a place, and especially while I was in such a state, but he was, and he made it clear to me that day that, not only was he there, he was doing an incredible work in me there. In my mind, he did not belong there, he did not fit there, yet he was there, and at work there, working out his plan for me, and I had no idea whatsoever what was going on. God comes to me, and in uncommon or apparently unsuitable times and manners, because this is his nature and it is his way. And he comes to me in ways that I understand and in ways that are meaningful to me. It may not make sense to others, but it will most certainly make sense to me. • I am enveloped in my heavenly Father’s virtue and magnificence. No matter what I see, feel, or experience, he is glorious, and I am never outside his

Presentation on Iceland provided at Clifford Merry Makers meeting By Bonnie Whitehead CLIFFORD - President Barbara Harris welcomed nine people to the Merry Makers meeting on Nov. 1 at Jamesway Manor. Doris Jaunzemis introduced guest speaker Murray Garrett. He and his wife Audrey embarked on a tour of Iceland and the U.K. in September of 2017. Their adventures took them over rocky landscapes with sparse vegetation to the hot springs, ice caves, and black sand beaches of Iceland. In London, they saw Big Ben and other landmark tourist attractions including iconic sites of the monarchy. Waterford crystal and the blarney stone in Ireland impressed them along with

Happy th

community or context has not prepared me for. It may at first come in a manner that may surprise me, because it is in a place I have not experienced him before or where I have never considered that he would frequent. This occurred to me recently. I had been in prayer and reflecting on a time in life many years ago where I was anything but close to God, or so I thought. It was a dark time where I had given myself to drinking heavily and experimenting with drugs. I had been at a party and had gotten so inebriated that all I could do was lie out on the grass. I eventually had to be escorted home by a friend. In my reflection of this I commented to God, “Wow, I was really far away from you, wasn’t I.” Yet, almost in the same instant that I uttered these words, God spoke: “You most definitely were not far from me. Oh, you may have not been aware of it at the time, but I was there.”

the many colours of green that form Ireland. Pints of Guinness, kissing the blarney stone and seeing the cranes that were used in building the Titanic made the trip quite an adventure. Edie Henry read In Flanders Fields and sang Little Brown Church. Everyone took turns reading sayings like, “Something good can be said about everyone, we have only to say it.” Doris Jaunzemis read some honey bee statistics and jokes. Barbara Harris shared jokes and lessons. The Merry Makers will meet for their catered Christmas luncheon at noon on Dec. 6 at Knox United Church. Mary Mighton and Kathy Hendry are in charge of the program.
