News – Carleton Place residents will soon have to get used to more frequent stops along Lake Avenue East after council authorized an all-way stop at the Francis Street intersection. Furthermore, the 2014 municipal budget will accommodate a crossing guard at the junction, approximately $6,000 yearly. Council unanimously approved the motion at its regular meeting on Nov. 12, a recommendation of the physical environment committee. There is already a four-way stop nearby, at the Park Avenue intersection, in close proximity to the Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital. Area residents and Arklan Community Public School representatives expressed concerns with children crossing Lake Avenue East at Francis Street. The town’s director of public works, Dave Young noted 250 residents signed a petition. “It’s our children that we need to worry about,” said Coun. Jerry Flynn. There is much projected growth in the area. The second phase of Carleton Crossing (Brigil Homes) has already started. Young explained traffic data
Community – Who wants a plain old holly, jolly Christmas when you can have a splendid Pakenham Country Christmas this year? Back by popular demand, the Pakenham Business and Tourism Association is again hosting their day of old-fashioned country holiday fun on Nov. 30 beginning at 9 a.m. “The idea is to have an oldtown Christmas like they would have had years and years ago” said PBTA representative Christine Whaelan. The Pakenham Country
Christmas event, which is being held for the second time this year, is a full day of holiday themed activities and shopping in the heart of the town. Starting at 9 a.m., the Centennial Restaurant will be hosting their Breakfast with Santa where kids can enjoy a hot-breakfast with the jolliest elf of them all. Then, at 10 a.m., a craft fair will be set up in the gymnasium of Pakenham Public School. There, you can find handmade gifts and slash items off your Christmas lists. “The whole day is a great holiday shopping day,” said Whaelan. “We had a lot of people tell us last year that they got
a lot of gifts for people on their lists and for themselves.” While children might have already told Santa what they hoped to get for Christmas at breakfast that day, a letter-writing station will be set up from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. in the school’s lobby so they can put in a formal application. Love That Barr will also be hosting Santa that day, for lunch this time at 12 p.m. But they aren’t the only business to participate. “So many of the businesses take part in the event,” Whaelan said. “They got great feedback from last year.” Throughout the day, business-
es in Pakenham will be involved in a town-wide scavenger hunt. Each business will have one of Santa’s nine reindeer; the goal for locals is to figure out which business has which reindeer. “It should be a lot of fun,” Whaelan said. “I think kids will really love it.” The day will wrap up at 4:30 p.m. with a tree lighting ceremony, caroling and hot chocolate with the Pakenham Horticultural Society at the park by the 5 Span Bridge. “People said last year that it felt as if you were visiting with their neighbours that day,” Whaelan said. “We were really pleased with that.”

The event is set up to feel like an old-time Christmas, where the whole town would gather to celebrate together, Whaelan said. It’s sure to be bigger and better than last year. With so many several things going on around town that day, it can be hard to keep track. For a full itinerary with times and locations, visit the Pakenham Country Christmas Facebook page. “The event was so successful last year and we had a lot of great feedback,” Whaelan said. “We can only hope that the momentum stays and even more people come out to enjoy the town this year.”

collected did not support the installation of a four-way stop because there is a significant difference in volumes approaching the intersection from Lake Avenue (both directions) compared to Francis Street, but it was necessary if there is a crossing guard placed at the intersection. “There needs to be a regulatory device in place to interrupt traffic flow on Lake Avenue East,” he said. “An all-way stop at this intersection would be the most pragmatic option compared to traffic signals, in order to interrupt traffic flow and create crossing opportunities.” “I just know what’s going to happen,” said mayor Wendy LeBlanc. “People will stop at Francis Street, but they will roll through on Lake Avenue East. It’s just human nature.” “Then it becomes a police issue,” said Flynn. “Because of the amount of traffic, the four-way stop is warranted at hospital,” said the mayor. Coun. Rob Probert voiced concern about traffic backing up at the McNeely Avenue intersection. Too, he asked why the installation of a crosswalk was dismissed. “The financial implication,”

Community – The spirit of giving is alive and well in Smiths Falls after the community helped bring in more than 45,000 pounds of food Nov. 23 during the Build A Mountain of Food campaign’s local food blitz. The food blitz took place at four locations throughout town: Andress’ Your Independent Grocer, The Garden Market, Food Basics and for the first time, Giant Tiger. The food (45,833 pounds) and cash donations ($3,456.87) from the day will benefit the Smiths Falls Community Food Bank. According to Build A Mountain of Food campaign co-ordinator Hugh Colton, the Smiths Falls numbers are up 30 per cent over last year. “The communities are absolutely giving and it’s overwhelming,� he admitted, noting that last year, 32,233 pounds of food were collected. “It was a record breaking day.� Local volunteers and members of the Smiths Falls Bears braved the cool conditions at each location from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. to help support the food bank. Colton said that Andress’ Your Independent Grocer also shattered their record for the sale of pre-packaged bags of food. “Last year, 500 had been sold but by 3:30 p.m. last Saturday, 609 pre-packaged bags had been sold at Andress’,� he said. The breakdown for that 45,833 pounds of food included 16,283 pounds from the general public, 9,300 pounds from local businesses and organizations, as well as 20,252 from the stores hosting the local food blitz.

REGIONAL NEWS
STEO prepared for inclement weather STEO staff review forecasts each day before 2 p.m. to check for weather alerts that may affect busing. If there are problems on the horizon, bus contractors are notified. Forecasts are reviewed again at 9:30 p.m. On the mornings that snow storms, freezing rain, or other weather problems are expected, the forecasting service, Pelmorex/The Weather Network, is contacted at 4:30 a.m. to check on weather conditions. Pelmorex/ The Weather Network is one of the most accurate forecasting services in the country. The same system is used by road crews from the Ontario Ministry of Transportation. STEO staff members do not rely solely on forecasts, however, when deciding whether or not to cancel bus service. Consultation takes place with a team of contractors whose staff members check area roads at 4:30 a.m. if bad weather is expected. The region is separated into 18 zones with a contractor as a captain in each zone. The captain reports weather and road conditions to Cotnam directly, confirming the amount of snow and ice accumulation on roads, if snow or freezing rain is continuing, and providing details on accumulation and intensity. STEO, and the contractors, also consult with municipal road crews, police, and other school boards throughout
the region, before making the call. With such a large area, it’s not unusual for weather to be bad in some parts of the jurisdiction, and not others. In those situations the board only cancels busing in problem areas, or areas where weather is expected to pose difficulty for bus drivers by the time they pick up students for the return trip home. This means buses can be cancelled in all 18 zones, or cancelled in as few as one, when conditions warrant such an order. Parents may get frustrated if roads in their area look fine, but while one street may look clear, travel elsewhere in the immediate region may be dangerous. The final decision on bus cancellations is made by the director of education from each board, or his designate, based on Cotnam’s recommendations. The decision to cancel must be made by 5:45 a.m., as buses begin as early as 6 a.m. “We understand that cancelling buses in bad weather has a big effect on families, and we know that students are best served in the classroom,” said Cotnam. Once the decision is made to run, STEO cannot reverse it, even if weather takes an unexpected turn for the worse. Parents rely on that decision when they leave for work. Submitted by Student Transportation of Eastern Ontario.

News – With winter near, and the impending onset of inclement weather, Student Transportation of Eastern Ontario (STEO) has improved the way it manages bus cancellations for the upcoming winter season. “STEO has worked vigorously to improve communication with parents and students about decisions to cancel busing if snowy conditions or icy roads make it unsafe to run buses,” said Ron Cotnam, STEO’s general manager and chief administrative officer. Letters have been sent to all parents of students in both the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario and the Upper Canada District School Board, explaining the process for issuing bus cancellation orders. STEO’s website offers easy access to transportation updates during inclement weather season. While STEO still works with area radio and TV stations to issue details about cancellations, the website means parents don’t have to wait for the next newscast to get details. They can log on at www. steo.ca to access information. “The decision to cancel busing is not taken lightly,” explained Cotnam. “It’s based on careful analysis of several factors, from up-to-date weather forecasts, to information from bus drivers who check roads on mornings when problem weather is expected.”

Garneau calls for Ford’s resignation, return of long-form census desmond.devoy@metroland.com
News – You don’t go into politics to become popular. Marc Garneau, Canada’s first man in outer space, found that out for himself when he entered politics at the behest of former Prime Minister Paul Martin and discovered that the G-force pressure of lift-off in the space shuttle was good training for the pressures of political life. “When I was an astronaut, I was very popular,” said Garneau, speaking to the first year politics class taught by Perth Mayor John Fenik at Algonquin College’s Perth campus on Monday, Nov. 25. “Everybody liked me. Now, I am a politician,” he said with a laugh. “That is one of the transitions you make. If any of you enter politics…you have to be ready for the fact that people will tell you that they do not like you.” But as a former astronaut, reliant on reams of computer and scientific data, he told the students that the Harper government’s decision to scrap the mandatory longform census was a bad one. “I believe that policy should be based on evidence,” said Garneau. “It should be used to craft policy.” He admitted that for those who did fill out the census that “yes, you can find a few of the questions very intrusive…but it gave
you an accurate data base on which to base policy.” Without that accurate information, “you tend to make decisions based on ideology, and less on evidence.” While the students seated before him were a long way from retirement age, Garneau sounded out one of his party’s possible 2015 election platform planks, decrying the Harper government’s decision to raise the retirement age from 65 to 67. Getting back then to his audience, many of whom likely had student loans, he also suggested that students should not have to pay back those loans until they landed a job after graduation. Garneau is currently not only the Member of Parliament for the Montreal riding of Westmount-Ville-Marie, but is also the Liberal foreign affairs critic, former Chancellor of Carleton University, and former president of the Canadian Space Agency. With such a resume, one student commended his run for the federal Liberal leadership earlier this year. “I tried that. It didn’t work,” Garneau said with a laugh. “I ran for it because I had a lot of ideas that I thought were good ideas. But competition is competition,” and the eventual winner, fellow Montreal MP Justin Trudeau, felt he had ideas that were just as good. “It was very clear that Justin was way out in front,”
said Garneau, with himself in second place. By March of this year, Garneau gathered with his team to analyze an extensive survey of 6,000 Canadians, which laid bare that there was simply no stopping the Trudeau juggernaut.
“Do I soldier on bravely with Justin so far ahead?” asked Garneau of his staff. He eventually decided to drop out of the race, since “it all costs money. It would have added to my campaign See GARNEAU page 6

debt.” Not that he still doesn’t have detractors who still question his decision. “People wag their finger at me and say ‘You should have stayed in the race,’” said Garneau. “I hated to back out.” Garneau’s seat in the House of Commons is just down the hall from the Senate, one of two political hot spots in the country right now, the other being Toronto City Hall. On the senate scandal, which ensnared three former Conservative senators,
and a Liberal, he said that the punishment meted out by the senate on Pamela Wallin, Mike Duffy, and Patrick Brazeau, was acceptable. “I am a believer that if you do something wrong, you should pay,” said Garneau. “You also have to have your day in court,” to defend yourself. He reminded his audience that he lives in Montreal, where the city hall there has had its own scandals, with two mayors in as many recent years resigning over corruption allegations. As for Toronto’s Mayor, Rob
Ford, “I think he should step down.” He found himself in agreement with a fellow MP who is normally an ideological foe, Employment and Social Development Minister Jason Kenney. “When you are in an elected office, you have to bring a certain dignity to it,” Garneau said, before adding that, “nobody is perfect…I understand he (Ford) was elected, but too many things have happened,” since his victory in October of 2010.

Merrickville Aikikai open for business By STAFF
Business – Local martial artists interested in aikido now don’t have too travel too far from home to practice it. Merrickville Aikikai officially opened its doors on Sept. 21 at 1211 County Road 43, just outside of Merrickville. Owner and chief instructor Gary Roberts, a resident of the village, has been practicing the defensive art for 40 years. For the past eight years, he has also been the owner and chief instructor of the Ottawa Aikido Centre, at which he continues to teach as well. Aikido is a Japanese martial
art that translates into ‘way of harmony’ and uses natural body movement to deflect an attacker’s intent. “It only teaches you methods that are effective in a fight,” Roberts, a 4th Dan, said. It is the youngest of martial arts. “Aikido speaks to every single one of us in one way or another,” Roberts noted. “For me, the idea is to use meditation in action. It’s about the quiet mind while you’re moving.” Currently, the centre offers classes for beginners right through to the more expe-
rienced. Classes take place Monday and Friday evenings at 6 p.m., Saturday mornings at 9 a.m. and Tuesdays at 10:30 a.m. for those 55 and older. The sessions last approximately an hour and a half and focus on demonstration and providing students with the opportunity to practice techniques. Classes are $20 up to a max of $100 per month. For more information on Merrickville Aikikai, look for them on Facebook. For an in-depth feature on Merrickville Aikikai and Roberts’ road to becoming an instructor, please see next week’s edition of the EMC.

Every day, Canadians are faced with spend versus save decisions that will have an eventual impact on their future financial life and the quality of their retirement years. Here’s the dilemma in a nutshell: “I know I should save for my retirement but that new big screen LED TV is on sale for a great price and it would be a terrific upgrade for our family room.” Sure, it’s difficult to think about a distant future plan (something intangible that is way down the road) when you can get something you want today, this is why many people don’t set realistic goals. But, in this case the solution seems obvious: Stay with the perfectly serviceable TV you’ve already paid for and put the money you would have spent on the new one into a retirement fund (or some other investment). Simple, right? But there’s much more to effective financial planning than investing in investments held within an RRSP or other savings vehicle. While it is undeniably true that the earlier you start saving, the better — especially within a tax-reducing, tax-sheltered RRSP where the magic of compounding will enhance your investment growth over time — the first thing
Manage Your Money you need to know is what you are saving for. In other words, you can’t measure a future need without knowing what that need will be. So start by carefully defining your objectives — some are straightforward, like your desire to buy a larger home at some future date; others require much more thought, like looking at your retirement from every angle and defining the level and duration of finances you will eventually need to achieve your dreams.
• What if your income — and thus, your ability to save — is affected by ill health, a workplace accident, a sudden unexpected expense, or even job loss? But don’t be deterred — there are answers to all these questions, ranging from an effective investment diversification strategy to insurance coverages that will protect you, your family, your income and your estate. Yes, comprehensive financial planning is complex — and also vital. Make the right decisions today and for your future by talking to your professional advisor.

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR
Saying thanks to a caring community DEAR EDITOR: On behalf of Operation Christmas Child, I want to express my sincere thanks to all those who participated in any way. Special thanks goes out to Glad Tidings Pentecostal Church and all the volunteers who so graciously donated their time and talent. Thanks to Wills Transfer for taking the boxes on the first part of their journey and to the Perth Courier, Lanark Era and the Frontenac News for putting our story in their papers. Thanks to the Salvation Army Thrift Store and the staff for all their help, K.W. Outdoor Power Sales for use of their building and vehicles and McMartin House for the use of their building, without which we would not be able to distribute our boxes. Thanks to all the businesses that donated to the campaign and each
individual who so lovingly packed a shoe box, our thanks and also the thanks of each girl or boy who will open their boxes and their faces will light up with the true meaning of Christmas. I consider it my privilege to have served in this worthwhile endeavour as some of these children have never received a gift before and really didn’t know that there are people in the world who care about them enough to send this wonderful message all tied up in a little shoe box. May you and your families enjoy the true meaning of Christmas this year. Vivian Buchanan Perth
COMMENTARY
Be weather wise Editorial – Whether we like it or not, winter officially made its annual appearance earlier this week and sometimes we need a reminder on how to dress appropriately for the conditions. Playing outside in the snow can be fun, but the dangers of frostbite and hypothermia aren’t a laughing matter, according to the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit. Frostbite, the freezing of the skins and layers of tissue underneath, can occur when temperatures dip below -4 degrees Celsius and can be hard to feel. If outside for prolonged periods of time, the health unit recommends you check for white or grey spots on the skin or areas that may have lost feeling. Tingling and pain can also be signs of frostbite, which normally affects the feet, hands and ears. Hypothermia, when heat is lost from the body faster than you can create it, is equally serious as once this happens you may not be able to think clearly. It requires immediate medical attention and if outside, you should watch for symptoms including: loss of memory, shivering, slurred speech or loss of consciousness. To combat the wicked winter chills, make sure you are bundled in layers of warm dry clothing, drink hot fluids, cover exposed skin when outdoors and be aware of the early signs of frostbite and hypothermia. To ensure you and your family stay warm this winter, the health unit also recommends a heated environment of 20 degrees Celsius be maintained. For more information, visit www.healthunit.org.
You made do or you did without in Depression years Lifestyle – How often I had begged Mother to find the few pennies it would take to buy just one bar of store-bought soap. But there was always a better place for her egg money, she’d say. And besides, there was nothing wrong with the bars of homemade soap she churned out once or twice a year. As well as my loathing for the homemade soap was my absolute dislike for the days Mother put aside to make it! That seemed to happen spring and fall. It couldn’t be too hot, or too cold. Winter had yet to settle in that year I remember with such clarity. The summer kitchen was still being used to store things, but soon it would be too cold to be nothing more than a place to pile the wood. And once the snow came, it was through the summer kitchen we went to get rid of as much snow off our feet as possible, before coming into the kitchen. Mother announced at breakfast that morning that Audrey and I were expected to hurry home from school because we would be putting supper on the table. “I’m making soap today,” she said. She had been saving lard from the fried bacon, roasted pork and anywhere else she could find a spoonful or two of fat. By the time the soap day rolled around, about four small honey pails of fat sat on
an old table in the summer kitchen at the ready. The tin of Gillette’s Lye was already bought at Scott’s Hardware in Renfrew, and we children were warned every day not to even touch the tin it came in, so deadly it was! “Poison. And it will burn a finger to the bone,” Mother warned. Every time I walked through the summer kitchen, I looked at the yellow and black lettered tin of lye like it alone had started the First World War. The containers Mother used to make the soap were big square black tins, much like the cookie sheets that stood on edge in the bottom of the kitchen cupboard. But these were shallow, and much larger, and as black as your boot. Even before we went to school, Mother would have started into the soap making. The tins (usually there were at least three in use at a time) were spread out on the old wood table in the summer kitchen. The kettle would be boiling on the Findlay Oval, and Mother would take it to the summer kitchen and half-fill the black tins with hot water. I would always hope we would still be home when she added the lye. I both hated and was entranced with that step in soap-making. Mother would pry off the lid with a knife Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 104

and evenly pour the lye over the hot water. And great gusts of steam would come off the tins, not from the hot water which would cool off almost immediately, but from the lye doing its dastardly deed with the water. There was an old wood spoon, with a very long handle, that was used for nothing else but stirring the lye into the water. It had a piece of binder twine through the little hole in the handle, and when not used for soap-making, hung in the summer kitchen, so that it wouldn’t accidentally be used for something that would be put in our stomachs. The fact that Mother wore a pair of Father’s old work gloves confirmed in my mind how deadly was the lye. We were never around long enough to see the next step, but we knew the little honey pails, which would have been sitting on the back of the cook stove to turn to liquid, would be brought close to the News Editors: Laurie Weir, Joe Morin, Ashley Kulp REPORTERS: Howaida Sorour, Tara Gesner, Desmond Devoy, Kelly Kent, Jennifer Westendorp DISTRIBUTION: Lori Sommerdyk, 613-284-0124 ,ext. 27 CLASSIFIEDS/REGIONAL ROUNDUP: Fax: 613-283-5909 Judy Michaelis Email: jmichaelis@perfprint.ca Lee Ann Gilligan Email: lgilligan@perfprint.ca Jennifer Coughlin Email: jcoughlin@perfprint.ca

table, and once the lye had been melted into the hot water, the lard would have to be stirred into the mixture. Into one tray Mother would drop in a few drops of vanilla. That tray would be used for our baths and face-washing. My sister Audrey said the hardest part of soap-making, was trying to blend the fats into the water and lye. Sometimes it took hours. And I would picture in my mind Mother with Father’s old work gloves on, stirring and stirring and making sure not a drop would touch her skin. By the time we got home from school, the big black trays of lye, water and fat, would have gelled and hardened, at least that was Mother’s hope. But sometimes, it seemed to take forever for the pans to set well enough to be cut into bars. Wile that was happening, Mother constantly jumped up from the supper table and went out to the summer kitchen to press a finger to the mould to see if it was ready to cut. I could never figure out how the deadly lye could lose its power just by adding water and lard! When it did (and I questioned the fact), it became the soap we would use in our baths on Saturday night, for washing our hands, shaved into slivers for doing the Monday washADVERTISING SALES: ADVERTISING SALES CO-ORDINATOR Andrea Harding SALES: Cheryl Johnston, Sharon Sinfield, Kathy Perreault, Liz Gray, Kevin Hoover, Jamie Rae-Gomes Email: emcsales@perfprint.ca Fax: 613-283-9988 THE DEADLINE FOR DISPLAY ADVERTISING IS MONDAY 4:30 PM
ings, and for anything else that needed to be cleaned with soap and water. By the time the evening was well on its way, Mother would bring the trays onto the kitchen table which had been spread out with copies of the Renfrew Mercury, and with the sharpest knife in the house, she would cut the soap into bars. Sadly, no matter how hard Mother worked to melt the lye, there was always a few pieces left that didn’t succumb to the hot water, and it wasn’t unusual at all, when washing, to have a piece of lye scrape across your body, leaving a scratch like one made by a mad tom cat! My sister Audrey and I and Mother were the only ones to use the soap made with a dash of vanilla, but as far as I was concerned, the vanilla did little to take away the strong smell of Gillette’s Lye. One day Mother bought a bar of a new soap called Ivory. It was for company, like Aunt Lizzie when she came from Regina, and when she left, it was wrapped in wax paper, and stored away until her next visit. So all through those Depression years, homemade lye soap was part of our lives, and very much a part of a time in our lives when you made do, or you did without. • Advertising rates and terms and conditions are according to the rate card in effect at time advertising published. • The advertiser agrees that the publisher shall not be liable for damages arising out of errors in advertisements beyond the amount charged for the space actually occupied by that portion of the advertisement in which the error occurred, whether such error is due to negligence of its servants or otherwise... and there shall be no liability for non-insertion of any advertisement beyond the amount charged for such advertisement. • The advertiser agrees that the copyright of all advertisements prepared by the Publisher be vested in the Publisher and that those advertisements cannot be reproduced without the permission of the Publisher. • The Publisher reserves the right to edit, revise or reject any advertisement.

Amendments must be passed by Jan. 1, 2014 to be in place for next year’s local government elections on Oct. 27, 2014. “The clock is ticking and we need to see some action from the government now to pass these amendments that municipalities across the province, including in my riding of Leeds-Grenville, have demanded,” stressed Clark.

News – Leeds-Grenville MPP Steve Clark is renewing his call for the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing to immediately introduce legislation to amend the Municipal Elections Act. Clark said the amendments required include eliminating the excessively punitive penalty for the late filing of election expenses by municipal candidates. Currently, being even one day late in submitting this expense report means you automatically lose your council seat and can’t run in the next municipal election. The “lame duck” period between election day at the end of October and the date new councils officially take office on Dec. 1 must also be shortened, said Clark. “Time is running out to amend the act in time for the changes to take effect for next year’s municipal votes,” said Clark. “Every Municipal Affairs and Housing minister since the last municipal elections in 2010 has assured me

Orion Theatre Company Brings Les Misèrables to Perth this February Picture, and received eight Academy Award nominations, and won three Oscars. The film’s soundtrack has sold more than two million copies worldwide. And now, local theatre-goers have a chance to see for themselves what all the fuss is about. On Feb. 6, Orion Theatre Company’s production of Les Miserables will open at Code’s Mill on the Park in Perth for a twoweek run. Code’s Mill provides a wonderful cabaret-style theatre experience, with table seating and bar service. Based on the widely acclaimed 19th century novel by Victor Hugo, Les Misèrables tells the story of Jean Valjean, and his quest for redemption after serving
19 years in jail for stealing a loaf of bread, who breaks parole to start a new life, but is relentlessly chased by a police inspector Javert. It depicts the life of the poor – les misèrables – in early 19th century Paris, and the revolutionary spirit that existed amongst the students and working class who were frustrated by the inequalities and cruelties perpetuated by the ruling class and the rich. Set during the Paris rebellion of 1832, the play climaxes during an epic battle between revolutionary students and the army. Producing directors, Heidi Stepanek and Peter Dixon have assembled one of the strongest casts in its history. The cast is led by locals Peter Dixon (Jean

Local band BoB Spelled Backwards to appear in Bolingbroke Dec. 6 Community – BoB Spelled Backwards, the quirky folkcountry-psychedelic blues band featuring five members of the Dorner-Sullivan family, will perform their only concert of 2013 at the Bolingbroke Café (at the ABC Hall in Bolingbroke – 3166 County Rd 36) on Friday, Dec. 6. BoB Spelled Backwards, after performing widely in Ottawa and eastern Ontario in recent years, have been taking a bit of a break this year, to allow the individual members to work on other projects. Japhy and Noah
Sullivan have performed their own material as a duo, as well as leading a four-piece instrumental band called Conspiracy Of Sound, performing funky, folky, jazz originals. Meanwhile, Noah and Margaret Sullivan have also performed as a duo, appearing as Charlie In The Middle, and parents Danny Sullivan and Kathy Dorner have revived some of the material they performed in the 1990s with their band, The Dharma Bums. In the summer of 2012, the Dorner-Sullivans spent a week in Toronto, recording at The
Millstream, the studio of Canadian folk-hero and long-time producer, Paul Mills. The result was a five-song BoB Spelled Backwards EP, Thicker Than Water, that highlights the genrebusting variety of their extensive repertoire. The band has plans to go back into the studio in 2014 to work on their first full-length album. In the new year, they also have plans for more live performances, including a major charity fund-raiser in Ottawa next spring. Whether they’re playing in someone’s kitchen or living/
room, or on the stage of a festival or theatre, BoB Spelled Backwards are always ready to give it their all. With original songs ranging from soft-spoken folk ballads to reggae-tinged philosophical musings, their watchword is eclecticism.
The Bolingbroke Café is a monthly event, organized by Mike Erion, featuring a different musical act every month. Specialty coffees, teas, desserts and soft drinks are served, and the doors open at 7 p.m. for refreshments and socializing. BoB
Spelled Backwards will perform at 8 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 6 at the ABC Hall (3166 County Road #36). Admission is $10 at the door. For more information, contact Mike Erion 613-273-8718 or email merion@kingston.net.

Countdown on for the Dominion Tankard curling championship Jan. 27-Feb. 2 By HIT N ROLL
Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Dominion Tankard starts in 60 days at the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre (arena). The Dominion Tankard, which is the Southern Ontario provincial menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s curling championship, takes place from Jan. 27 to Feb. 2, 2014. The winner represents Ontario at the Tim Hortons Brier. The tournament is overseen by the OCA (Ontario Curling Association). The event is sponsored by the Dominion of Canada General Insurance Company. Northern Ontario has its own provincial championship known as the Dominion of Canada Northern Ontario Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Curling Championship. Since 1960, there have been five Ontario provincial champions from Eastern Ontario â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Jake Edwards of Kingston, 1960; Eldon Coombe of Ottawa, 1972; Alex Scott of Kingston, 1975; Earle Morris of Ottawa, 1985; Rick Moffatt of Ottawa, 1999 and Bryan Cochrane of Ottawa, 2003. The original Tankard â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Brier Tankard â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was first
awarded in 1927 and stayed as the most coveted trophy in curling until 1979 when Labatt Breweries took over sponsorship from MacDonald Tobacco. The Tankard trophy went into hibernation until 2000. The Tankard is a treasured piece of Brier history. The second leg of the Grand Slam of Curling took place in Alberta last weekend . Once again teams from Ontario were prominent with four of them in the final eight. Each of these outstanding teams are potential participants in the Provincial Championships here in January. The quality of play was not as good as the first
Grand Slam event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Precision shot making was more difficult because the ice was tricky and seemed to be tilted.â&#x20AC;? The defending Ontario champions, the Glenn Howard, Wayne Middaugh, Brent Laing and Craig Savill team (rink) has won this event for the past seven years. Are they ripe for an upset? By the way, Wayne Middaugh won his Junior Provincial Title in Smiths Falls in 1987. Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other finalist rink was led by Joe Frans as skip. Some of our readers will recall that Joe grew up in Smiths Falls and began his curling career here. His father (Theo) was icemaker at our club in addition to his farming activities in the 1980s. The next big event and, one that has been anticipated by all top level teams, is the Olympic trials which take place in Winnipeg this coming weekend. Both the Rachel Homan and Glenn Howard rinks are amongst the favourites to be in Sochi in February. There will be food at the Tankard. Box lunches will be available from noon to 2 p.m.
in theâ&#x20AC;? Lockmaster Houseâ&#x20AC;? in the upper level of the arena. In the evenings from 5:30 to 7 p.m. delicious meals will be provided by local caterers and served by volunteers. Tickets for the meals are limited. They can be purchased daily at the event.
The ticket package order forms are available online at www.thedominiontankard2014.ca, at the arena and curling clubs in the region. Any of the packages would make a great Christmas gift. Single draw tickets are available. As described earlier, each
draw consists of five 10-end games and there will 11 draws in the round robin. For more information, please call 613-8123372 or the Smiths Falls Curling & Squash Club at 283-4700 or curling@bellnet.ca Slide into the Falls; do not miss The Tankard!

Books, documentaries shed light on JFK conspiracy theories lieve one individual, Lee Harvey Oswald, was the lone shooter in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas on that terrible afternoon half a century ago. The majority opinion expressed to me falls in line with what recent polls south of the border have discovered. In the lead-up to the 50th anniversary last Friday, one wellknown American polling firm found 61 per cent of those they questioned believe there was an organized plot behind Kennedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assassination. What is particularly interesting about conducting a survey about JFKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s slaying now is that so many millions of Americans who were alive in 1963 are now deceased. That supports my feeling that people today are just as intrigued by this remarkable story. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real life murder mystery that knows no boundaries! Last week I said I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe the conclusions contained in the Warren Commission Report. Obviously many readers also disagree with the contents of that lengthy document. The 889-page outline purports to be the final word on Kennedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assassination. As a career journalist my main interest is the news. It seems much of what we read and hear today is bad news although I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe it was much different in the past. Human beings continue to be fascinated by negative occurrences.
Reflections BY JEFF MAGUIRE
I will admit Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had my fill of the Rob Ford story. By contrast I can never get enough information about the Kennedy assassination! During the 50th anniversary week there was a veritable media smorgasbord of material about the assassination. Some stories and television documentaries went straight up the middle, focusing on the history and outlining familiar details about a news story that will probably never completely fade. Different ethics To me the best of the many TV documentaries was a PBS show which focused on how CBS Television handled coverage of the Kennedy assassination. I found the news ethics of the day particularly intriguing. Especially considering that the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;newsâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;ethicsâ&#x20AC;? are rarely used together at present. Currently details about major events are instantly disseminated via the Internet, with little thought as to whether the facts have been checked and no concern about how incorrect information might affect those involved, their fami-
lies and friends. That approach is not ethical in my opinion! Fifty years ago CBS-TV and famed news anchor Walter Cronkite (the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;anchormanâ&#x20AC;? was coined for him) demonstrated a refreshingly different style. In fact Cronkite refused to go to air with word of Kennedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death until it had been officially announced. That despite the fact CBS could have been scooped by other networks! He hesitated despite the fact his reporters had solid information from reliable sources that the president had suc-
cumbed to his wounds. Cronkite was worried how such terrible news would affect his audience. A far cry from the carefree â&#x20AC;&#x201C; some would say â&#x20AC;&#x153;carelessâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; approach of the electronic media today. To be fair there were also downsides to news reporting 50 years ago. In Kennedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case an â&#x20AC;&#x153;unwritten codeâ&#x20AC;? meant journalists turned a blind eye to the presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many peccadillos. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m referring to the numerous sexual liaisons we now know JFK engaged in while he was president.
A certain Bill Clinton wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite as fortunate in that regard. So, why should we care about an event that, despite the depth of the tragedy, happened 50 years ago? To answer my own question, I believe one has only to consider that the murder victim in this case was the most powerful man in the so-called â&#x20AC;&#x153;free world.â&#x20AC;? Kennedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death undoubtedly altered the course of history in his country, Canada and the world. Of course See COLUMN page 22

Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I was confident there would be great interest in the column I wrote last week to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the assassination of United States President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Still, I could not have guessed how many readers would respond to my request for feedback on the murder of JFK. There must be a lot of people from my generation reading this newspaper? Either that or the assassination and its aftermath spans the generations and continues to be of general interest? I suspect thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mixture of both elements involved. But the volume of email I have received from readers on this subject is remarkable. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sorry I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reply to every message. But thank you to those who read last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s column and took the time to tell me where they were on Nov. 22, 1963 or to share details about how JFKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assassination affected them and their families. As I said in the previous article, the sudden and unexpected death of the young president was a massive shock. Kennedy inspired a generation and millions of people, including countless Canadians, were personally affected by his death. The majority of my correspondents feel the assassination was the culmination of a conspiracy. In other words more than one person was involved. Others be-

it matters. Besides, who wouldn’t want to know the real story behind such a world-shaking tragedy? Many people, including me, don’t believe we have the whole truth in this case. But what evidence is there to support such a contention? I believe the Warren Commission had only two objectives after the new president, Lyndon Baines Johnson, appointed them. First, they set out to prove Oswald was
the lone assassin. Secondly they wanted it known that Jack Ruby was the only person involved in Oswald’s subsequent murder. Those were the key findings of the commission. But there is compelling evidence the contents of the final report were altered to enhance their conclusions. Many of those who have closely studied JFK’s assassination believe the shortcomings of the Warren report are best detailed in the pages of author Sylvia Meagher’s book ‘Accessories After the Fact:
The Warren Commission, the Authorities and the Report.’ Those in the know consider Ms. Meagher’s 1967 work, which I read many years ago, to be the definitive volume on this extremely important subject. Her extensive research led Meagher to pen three books about the Kennedy assassination. Numerous theories There have been literally hundreds of books written about JFK’s murder. One estimate I heard last week is more than 1,000. Most are based on one theme or present one

conclusion. I believe many of the ideas presented are highly questionable. For example, a book that claims the Masonic Order was behind Kennedy’s killing. Those kinds of “theories” are a dime a dozen! What sets Meagher’s second book apart is that she lets readers draw their own conclusions. Obviously there is a big clue to her personal feelings in the title. Beyond that she simply presents documented information. During the time the Warren Commission was in session Meagher was a professional indexer. She undertook the mammoth task of cataloguing every page and exhibit of the Warren report. Eventually she decided to compare the contents of the final document to the recorded testimony of the many witnesses who appeared before the commission. She found literally scores of discrepancies. Witness testimony
is either missing from the report or it had clearly been altered. Surely that must have been done to reinforce the report’s conclusions? Meagher meticulously catalogued the apparent differences and outlined the obvious conflicts in print. The result is a book which is quite remarkable. Meagher doesn’t point fingers. Instead she leaves it to the reader to make up their own mind based on the information she presents. Peter Dale Scott, a noted Canadian-born JFK assassination researcher, is one of those who weighs in with an opinion about Meagher’s book. A website I visited quotes Scott as saying, “In her book she (Meagher) shows unequivocally the methods of distortion, suppression and apparent intimidation which were used to arrive at untenable conclusions.” Those who have analyzed Meagher’s extensive work feel that based on her considerable research the findings of the War-
ren Commission can’t possibly be taken seriously. Unfortunately at this point the book is out of print and difficult to obtain. Meagher died in 1989 at age 67. But if you are interested, why not check your local library or used book store? You might just come up with a copy. It is definitely worth the read. To me a comment made (numerous times) by the late Jesse Curry, chief of the Dallas Police Department at the time of the Kennedy assassination, is extremely telling. “We have no proof that Oswald fired that weapon (rifle) at President Kennedy that day,” Curry said. To me that statement alone calls into question the very tidy conclusions contained in the Warren Commission report.

This Week’s Pets
may take some work to build trust and a relationship, but poor Pebbles deserve a home to call her own and a companion that will spend time giving love and building trust in the relationship.
Ariel Meet Ariel! This striking little lady is a very affectionate tabby who closely resembles a Bengal cat with her spectacular black markings. Ariel is about one-year-old Pebbles Pebbles is a large, mature nine and has already delivered a set of and a half-year-old female with a lovely black and white tuxedo coat. Pebbles is quick to let you know her likes and dislikes – she does enjoy being petted but will let you know when she has had enough. She prefers to be the only cat in the home, and while she resides in the cat condo with others, she keeps to herself and prefers to wait for her forever home in silence. She would enjoy a quiet home with a mature companion who will take the time to let her be comfort- kittens. She is now spayed and able and adjust to home life after ready to start her own life of her being surrendered to the shelter. It own. She is truly sweet natured, clean and sociable. She would be an ideal family cat, enjoys being held and petted, looking at windows and playing as all young cats should. One look at Ariel and you are sure to fall in love.

and that’s the face of Max. As personable as he is beautiful, as affectionate as he is good-natured, Max captures hearts wherever he goes. Known as a true gentleman, he is extremely friendly, sociable and playful around people. He walks very well on leash, and because he loves to run and explore, he eagerly invites anyone and everyone to join him. Enthusiastic, intelligent and only moderately vocal, his moderate to high energy level calls for plenty of exercise to tire him out, and enough stimulating activities to constantly challenge him. If you think you can keep up with handsome and happy Max, invite him over to your place to play. Then hold onto him. Forever. Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS) is located on Glenview Road, just off Highway 43, about 2 kilometres west of Smiths Falls. The shelter is open Monday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Write to us at P.O. Box 156, Smiths Falls, ON K7A 4T1 or contact us at 613283-9308, or email at shelter@lanarkanimals.ca.

lessness; identifying barriers and solutions to the issue; providing tools and resources for those who work to alleviate homelessness; encouraging networking and sharing of best practices; and engaging individuals, communities and the private sector in solutions. Cornerstone Landing provides rent supplements, gift certificates, and other supports as long as the affected individual stays in school and working towards course completion. A report issued earlier this year identified Canada’s homeless population at upwards of 300,000 people, with a third of them young people. Raising
trustees in the spring of 2013 to recognize and share with the system innovative teaching and work practices. Trustee Caroll Carkner said the board is seeking a student design because she has seen the high quality of artwork produced by UCDSB students. “It also makes them a part of the process,” said Carkner of the decision to seek a student design. “We know that there are innovative, artistic students out there in our system, and we want to give them an opportunity where they can see their artistic ideas having a real impact by acknowledging the work
of our innovative employees.” Designs must meet the following guidelines: • The contest is open solely to students within the Upper Canada District School Board and the T.R. Leger School of Adult, Alternative and Continuing Education. • Designs must be no more than 21 centimetres tall and 12 centimetres wide. • The winning design must bear the UCDSB logo, the title “Trustee Innovation Award” and have space allocated on which to display the winner’s name, workplace, and year.
• While artists are able to use any media, entrants must include with their entry a list of materials required to create the award. The overall cost of producing each award must be no more than $50 – taxes included. • Students can work alone or as a team. • Designs must be submitted to trustee liaison officer Lisa Raymond in electronic format by no later than May 31, 2014. Entries can be emailed to: lisa.raymond@ ucdsb.on.ca. The awards will be presented to winners in the fall of 2014.
the Roof notes that families are the fastest-growing segment of Canada’s homeless population, and for the next three years, the national organization will place a special focus on developing a preventative/early intervention framework which addresses family homelessness. A report on youth joblessness issued by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives last month also painted a bleak outlook for young people trying to break out of the cycle of poverty, revealing that Ontario has the highest rate of youth unemployment of any province outside of Atlantic Canada. Figures compiled by the Ottawa-based think tank reveal that youth joblessness figures rival those of the worst-hit areas of
the US rust belt. “It is no understatement to point out that a lot of young people are in crisis, with one symptom of that crisis being insecure and precarious housing, couch surfing, and never knowing from day to day if one will have a place to study, to have some private, quiet time, to have a shower,” explains Cornerstone Landing’s community coordinator, Matthew Behrens. “That’s why we’re really honoured to be part of Raising the Roof, which has been in this struggle to end homelessness for the long haul. We’re also incredibly lucky to have such supportive local boosters in the stores that are selling the toques.” Anyone interested in pur-
chasing a toque to support Cornerstone Landing can visit Jo’s Clothes (39 Foster Street), Barnabe’s Your Independent Grocer (at the customer service desk), and Fiddleheads Bar and Grill, across from Stewart Park. While Cornerstone is currently working to keep a number of young people both housed and in school, the organization also provides guest speakers for local churches, service clubs, and other groups interested in learning more about the issue and how they can get involved.

said Young. “However, it’s an option.” Coun. Louis Antonakos said staff made the right decision, in light of the situation. “I don’t think we have another answer, but we must to be cautious about this because it’s an unwarranted stop,” said LeBlanc. William Street On street parking on the north side of William Street, from Baines Street to Edmund Street, will be restricted. Council also approved the motion at its meeting on Nov. 12. Two residents of William Street voiced concerns relating to both speeding on the road and the high demand for on street parking relating to St. James Anglican Church functions. Young said “the road width of William Street is not adequate to allow two way traffic when vehicles are parked on both sides of the street.” He noted this is not uncommon in town and is typically only an issue when there is a high demand for on street parking; however, action is warranted. No action was recommended relating to speeding, based on traffic data collected by the municipality’s public works department. “I have concerns we’ll end up with the same problem we did on Bridge Street when we took parking away from one side,” said deputy mayor Ed Sonnenburg during discussion. “It opened up the road and increased the

speed (of drivers).” Probert asked about restricted hours in place of a total parking ban. Moreover, he wanted to know if the other residents in the area including the church were consulted on the matter. “There has not been consultation with the church or other residents in the immediate vicinity,” said Young. From Bridge Street to Edmund Street, he noted on street parking on the north side of William Street is already restricted. “This would be an extension,” continued the director. “If we say no to parking, does everyone living on the street have a place to put their car?” asked Antonakos. “Yes,” responded Young. Princess and Lisgar streets In order to obtain traffic data, council carried a staff recommendation on Nov. 12 to defer a request until the spring of 2014 that the intersection of Princess and Lisgar streets become an all-way stop. A resident made the request because of the large number of children in the neighbourhood and speed is an issue on Princess Street. “This is an ongoing theme,” noted Flynn. “We know there is speeding everywhere in town.” “As per the town’s Speed Management and Traffic Calming Policy, data will need to be acquired to determine if the action (all-way stop) is warranted,” said Young. Due to construction in the area, he added the data should not be acquired
until it is complete. As well, data collectors can’t be used in the current weather conditions. “The concern that I have is that this is not a warranted stop,” said LeBlanc. “We should not be using four-way stops as a traffic calming measure. It just doesn’t work.” “To address this person’s issue, I do think we should obtain the traffic

data; however, I am opposed to having a four-way stop that is obviously unwarranted,” she continued. The mayor asked her colleagues how many times in the last year have they driven along Lisgar Street. “I bet I go across it once a year,” said LeBlanc. “How much traffic goes along there in one day? Hardly any. The only reason this person wants it there is for a traffic calming measure.” With a number of issues on council’s agenda regarding traffic concerns, local resident Jim Collins asked, “When does this council take a motion to the Police Services Board (PSB) and ask for enforcement?” “The police can’t be everywhere all the time,” said LeBlanc. “However, I will take the concerns to the Po-
lice Services Board and talk to Staff Sgt. Rob Croth.” “Following up on Jim’s comment, can we ask the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) to direct more resources to these kinds of issues?” asked Antonakos. “We purchased an electronic speed sign,” said Coun. Gary Strike. “That sign should be used every day. This would help get the message across.” He also mentioned the possibility of an OPP blitz. “These are ongoing issues and they don’t seem to stop,” said Prob-

Naismith Homestead property owners propose new use kkent@perfprint.ca
Community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dr. James Naismith helped to put the town of Almonte on the map as the hometown of the inventor of basketball. Now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible that in the near future, happy couples will be able to start their lives together at the place he called home. At the Mississippi Mills Committee of the Whole meeting Nov. 19, a motion was brought forward, recommending that council approve the necessary zoning bylaw amendment to allow a portion of the Naismith homestead at 4968 County Road 29 to be zoned as a wedding and events venue instead of its current agricultural designation. Tracy Zander of the planning company ZanderPlan Inc. gave a presentation about the proposed venue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking to create is a rural destination for weddings and other events,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to keep the same look and feel that is already existing on the property.â&#x20AC;? The Naismith property was recently bought by a couple whose dream is to own and operate an event venue. They intend to live in the existing Naismith house and convert the several barns and outbuildings that also form a part of the property into the business itself, which they are calling Evermore. The property is 45 acres in total, most of which is still
used as active agricultural land. Zander and her clients intend to covert approximately three acres of the total property into the active venue, encompassing all of the currently vacant outbuildings. The Naismith house is also a designated heritage site, meaning that it is protected against certain changes, but Zander said their intention is to keep the lands as original as possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working with the existing barns to make a rural setting,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want the barns to look like barns when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re done, but with an updated, elegant interior.â&#x20AC;? In order to get the zoning change they require, the use of the property will have to be secondary to its primary use: agriculture. Zander said that their venue will do that with ease. Architect Peter Mansfield gave a brief overview of the plan for the venue. When completed, it will be able to accommodate around 150 daytime guests, with parking contained entirely within the property. It will have a reception building, outdoor ceremony and dining spaces, Bocce ball courts, an industrial kitchen and a honeymoon suite. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Finding a use for these otherwise vacant heritage buildings is half the battle,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing here is adaptive reuse.â&#x20AC;? Evermore will also receive extensive landscaping with native plants that you would expect to see on the property.
A shield of trees will be placed along the roadway to block the view of the parking lot for aesthetic purposes. The plan is still in its earliest, conceptual stages and will be further developed if the zoning is changed. Town planner Stephen Stirling gave a brief overview of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position on the matter. So far, the town is be-
hind the project, so long as conditions are met. He also noted that the local heritage committee is supportive of the plan as well. Comments were allowed from the public gallery after the presentations were over. Some were concerned about noise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s be frank,â&#x20AC;? said one local woman who lives near the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I live in the country be-
cause itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quiet. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m concerned that I will have to listen to loud weddings all summer.â&#x20AC;? Zander assured the woman that they are working with sound professional to reduce the amount of noise pollution from the venue as much as possible. The bylaw itself will come forward at the Dec. 3 council meeting.

Carambeck Christmas Craft Show Dec. 7 By TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca
Community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Christmas shopping can be chaotic, but the Town of Carleton Placeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Recreation and Culture Department is making things a little easier by way of its Carambeck Christmas Craft Show. The event, in its first year, will take place next Saturday, Dec. 7, at Carambeck Community Centre (in the gymnasium), from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have 45 vendors,â&#x20AC;? exclaimed Jessica Smith, the municipalityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s community programmer, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and we already have a waiting list for next year.â&#x20AC;? She said the Carambeck Christmas Craft Show would appeal to all ages, tastes and budgets, and added â&#x20AC;&#x153;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to get so many crafters in one spot.â&#x20AC;? Admission is free; however, non-perishable food donations
to the Lanark County Food Bank (LCFB) are appreciated. As Christmas approaches, many families rely on local food banks to help them through. The LCFB provides emergency food hampers to those in need. The hampers are about three days worth of food. The Carambeck Christmas Craft Show is an offshoot of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2013 spring and fashion show, which took place in April. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are always looking for events for Carambeck Community Centre,â&#x20AC;? said Smith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to get people in the front door.â&#x20AC;? The community centre opened its doors to the public last October. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the site of the former Carambeck Public School. The facility, linked to the Carleton Place Pool, features a gymnasium and seven rooms. The Upper Canada District School Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s TR
Leger School of Adult, Alternative and Continuing Education is located on the premises, along with the Carleton Place and District Youth Centre â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both accessible from Edmund Street. Hospital auxiliary bake sale Christmas will definitely be in the air at the community centre next Saturday, with an abundance of traditional holiday decorations and festive music. The Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital Auxiliary will be on site, hosting its annual Bake Sale in support of the health-care facility. All baked goods (desserts ranging from cakes and pies to squares and cookies) are homemade by the Auxilians. The local Business Improvement Association (BIA) is sponsoring trolley rides. Catch a lift to the Carambeck Community Centre and support local crafters.

Women’s shelter receives $50,000 donation from Carleton Place developer By TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca
which is secure and measures just over 2,000 square feet. “Based on the demand for services, we no longer had enough space,” said Lee-Todd, “and we couldn’t find a landlord who could accommodate our needs.” Flynn suggested Thorbjornsson, “someone who may possibly be able to help.” “Wally wanted to work with us,” said Lee-Todd, “and he asked questions, taking the time to understand our needs (current and future).” Thorbjornsson even toured LCIH’s other space. “Although we didn’t have a lot of money, Wally told us that ‘we can figure this out’,” said Lee-Todd. “We jointly designed how to outfit the new space,” said Thorbjornsson. “Working with Wally, I haven’t found this process challenging one bit,” said LeeTodd.
News – Lanark County Interval House (LCIH) has received a $50,000 donation from Carleton Place developer Volunder ‘Wally’ Thorbjornsson and business associates. “We recognize the value of the work of Lanark County Interval House,” said Thorbjornsson. The announcement was made on Nov. 13 at Thorbjornsson’s office, located in Scandia Business Park in Carleton Place’s industrial park. In attendance: Erin Lee-Todd, LCIH executive director; Jennifer Greaves, LCIH financial coordinator; local councillors Louis Antonakos and Jerry Flynn; and Thorbjornsson’s wife, Daja Kjartansdottir. LCIH provides shelter and support to women and their children who have experienced physical, sexual, emotional or financial abuse. “My family and I respect the Donation work they do,” said ThorbjornsIn each of the five years of son, “and getting support in this tenancy, a cash donation in the sector is hard to find.” amount of $7,800 will be given to LCIH.

community service. “Ending violence against women is a community responsibility and we embrace our role in contributing to the solution,” he said. “I can’t tell you how much we appreciate the generosity and support of Wally and his partners,” said Lee-Todd. “We look forward to continued opportunities to work together in the effort to end violence against women,” said Thorbjornsson. “I think this is wonderful,” said Flynn, “and when I first spoke to Erin, I felt very confident the response would be what it is today.” “I commend Wally and his partners for showing their support for this needed service,” said Antonakos. Future collaboration possibly will involve second-stage housing, which provides a safe environment for women with or without children who have experienced abuse. It offers independent, controlled entry apartments with rent geared to income. “Women can rent the unit on their own for up to one year,” said Lee-Todd. There is one second-stage house in Ottawa – Harmony House. “A number of years ago, Louis and I spoke about secondstage housing,” said Lee-Todd.

Coins & Strings event marks 25 years By KELLY KENT kkent@perfprint.ca
Community – Coin enthusiasts will be delighted to hear that Almonte’s Alliance Coin & Banknote is once again hosting its annual open house, and it is sure to be one to remember. Coins and Strings, as the event is being called, is being held in honour of the 25 years that store owner Sean Isaacs has been in the coin business. “It’s sort of to commemorate the silver anniversary of being in the business,” Isaacs said. Coins & Strings will be held at the shop on Mill Street in Almonte from 4 to 6 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 30. While the event will be a marvel for coin collectors and enthusiasts, Isaacs said it will be interesting for everyone, regardless of their level of background knowledge on the subject. “We’re going to have some really neat, museum-like displays
of things that wouldn’t normally be seen otherwise,” he said. In honour of the silver anniversary theme, Isaacs has put together a world-class display of rare silver coins dating as far back as 500 B.C, including many from his private collection. He said it is a sort of tribute to the history of silver from ancient times to the present day. While Alliance Coin & Banknote has only been open for nine years, Isaacs has been in the coin business for 25 years. He started collecting coins when he was just six years old, but lost interest for a while when he failed to find employment in the field. However, his career was kick started one day in 1988 when he went to a new store and ended up leaving with a job. His collection has been growing ever since. It’s not just his personal collection that will be displayed, though. Isaacs has brought in pieces from other features and
collections. He is even hoping to get his hands on a rare Indian Chief Medal, which were awarded to Indian tribes by the King of England for their allegiance. “We have some really incredible pieces that will be on display, including some rare items that people wouldn’t have an opportunity to see anywhere else.” “We also try to have live music every year,” Isaacs said. “Usually we have violins or harps but this year we have something different.” This year there will be a performance by RedOwl, a Baroque violin and harpsichord duo. “Harpsichord isn’t something that everyone has a chance to hear live,” said Isaacs. “It’s really very unique.” Refreshments will be served to guests while they mingle and take in the displays. There’s no cost to the event, and Isaacs said he wanted to invite everyone who is interested to come out.

Mississippi Mills and Carleton Place coming together for Dew Rotor fundraiser By TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca
Community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dew Rotor is hospitalized permanently in Toronto anxiously hoping to get a double-lung transplant. Nicknamed â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Dew Dropâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by her friends, the 33-year-old Clayton resident is suffering from pulmonary fibrosis, a chronic disease that results in scarring of the lungs. The scar tissue replaces healthy tissue and causes inflammation. This damage causes the lungs to stiffen and
makes breathing increasingly difficult. According to close Rotor family friend, Terry Garwood, Dew underwent an operation Friday night, Nov. 22, at Toronto General Hospital (TGH). â&#x20AC;&#x153;She was put on a breathing machine to increase the oxygen in her blood,â&#x20AC;? said Garwood, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and the transplant is more urgent than ever before.â&#x20AC;? Dew and her mother, Leslirae Rotor, are desperately in need of financial assistance due to extraordinary expenses incurred while waiting for the
life-saving surgery. Garwood said it is not known how long it will take to find an organ donor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the two of them,â&#x20AC;? she added. Leslirae is her daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full-time caregiver. As a result, she is unable to work. Therefore, financial resources are extremely limited. In addition to maintaining the family home in Mississippi Mills, Leslirae must pay for somewhere to stay in Toronto. People First of Lanark County (PFoLC), along with
Garwood are spearheading a fundraiser planned for Dec. 14 from 7 to 12 p.m. in the upstairs hall of the Carleton Place arena (Neelin Street Community Centre), located at 75 Neelin St. There will be live entertainment, raffles, a silent auction, refreshments and more. Admission is a minimum $10 donation to the cause. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important the communities of Mississippi Mills and Carleton Place come together to show Dew they support her 100 per cent.

Local book on counterfeiting is the real deal
Photo by DESMOND DEVOY
Jill Moxley makes a point to her co-author James Powell before the start of their talk, at the launch for their book Faking It! A History of Counterfeiting in Canada, at the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum in Almonte on Sunday, Nov. 10. But for as hard as the counterfeiters tried, the authorities had to try that little bit harder, in a seemingly never-ending cat-and-mouse game. Canada and the United States became the first countries to sign a treaty dealing with counterfeiting – made all the more necessary because of Canada’s part in becoming a haven for counterfeiters. Quebec’s Eastern Townships in the 19th century were a hotbed for the manufacturing of fake American dollars, in towns like Farnham, Dunham, and Stanstead. And, remarkably, the counterfeiters had the law on their side. “There was no law in Canada against counterfeiting foreign money,” said Powell, only against illegally manufacturing Canadian money. “They just hopped across the border and set up shop. The American banks did not take too kindly to this.” In 1809, the governor of Vermont complained to Governor General Sir James Craig, and in 1810, the law was changed. Two years later, however, came the War of 1812, and suddenly, but not surprisingly, “the Canadians were not inclined to help the U.S.” Even after the war, FrenchCanadians and Loyalists both were not in the mood to help their former enemies. “It was a mainstream industry,” said Powell. “There was a lot of community support for this.” But some of the counterfeiters got greedy and when they turned their attention to the local currency, the tide began to turn. “That caught the attention of the authorities,” said Powell. One of the ‘bad boys,’ of the era was an American called Stephen Burroughs, whom the duo likened to Leonardo di Caprio’s character in the 2002 movie Catch Me If You

Can. Certainly a criminal with ego to burn, he wrote his autobiography in 1798 – while still in his 20s. He trained to be a priest, and in his various schemes and swindles would pretend to be a physician. He was caught in Quebec in 1810, and sought the pardon of Sir Craig. He was found guilty and sentenced to transportation in Botany Bay, Australia – but then, remarkably, was pardoned by Sir Craig. During the War of 1812, “he became a spy,” said Powell, with a dramatic pause. “We don’t know for who.” In time though, Burroughs found religion, converted to Roman Catholicism, moved to Trois Rivieres, married a devout woman, and learned French. His daughter, in time, became a nun in the Carmelite order. “He died a pillar of the community in the 1840s,” said Powell, a sort-of backhanded compliment Canadian immigrant success story, who is sometimes referred to as the “American sinner, Canadian saint.” But as recently as nine years ago, dark counterfeit characters, less Robin Hood and more Tony Soprano, were on the rise. “There were a couple of periods where the counterfeiters had the upper hand,” said Powell. “In 2004, counterfeit (money) reached epidemic proportions,” when about 15 per cent of people had knowingly come into contact with fake money. Moxley detailed the work done on Project Ophir, which saw its first lead in the Ottawa area in 2005. A Brinks truck was making its rounds when the driver “noticed (that) a grey Hyundai had been at each location… tracking along behind him. He got nervous and called the cops,” said Moxley. However, through a combination of bad timing, bad luck, and perhaps outright stupidity, “the two

KEEP IT GREEN – RECYCLING WORKS! THE EMC - A/CP7 - Thursday, November 28, 2013
R0012387942_1121
News – Anyone who thought they would leave a meeting about a book about counterfeiting money with the tools to become self-made millionaires – so to speak – came away sorely disappointed on Nov. 9. For the rest who came to the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum in Almonte for the right reasons were treated to a presentation by authors James Powell and Jill Moxley for their new book Faking It! A History of Counterfeiting in Canada. The book took three years to write, and drew upon the help of not only the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, but also the Bank of Canada’s national currency collection – once they knew that their book was legit, of course. In fact, the bank even helped out with some of the book’s financing too, not surprising since, well, they have a licence to print money: no, really. When it came to statistics and pictures, “we owe a big debt to the RCMP,” said Moxley, no pun intended, of course. “We hope that it is fun to read and scholarly at the same time,” she added. Powell had said he wanted to have the book ready for November – of 2011, in time for when the Bank of Canada’s new $100 bills hit the market. Well, clearly that didn’t happen, but now they are out in time for the new polymer $5 and $10 bills, so it is more likely that people – especially poorer people – will see the changed bills and be thinking about fighting counterfeiting. “They are probably the most secure and safe currency in the world,” said Powell. Even at this, the criminals are starting to catch up. “As we were going to press, there was an article we had noticed about the seizure of $100 polymer notes in Vancouver,” said Moxley. Counterfeiting currency is not new. Just as the world has its oldest professions, “as soon as coins came out (about 5,000 BC), five minutes later, there were people trying to rip people off,” with fake copies, said Powell. About 300 years ago in Canada, it was pretty easy to forge money, with the first paper notes issued in what was then New France in 1685. In the 19th century, “photography just sent shock waves through the industry” and by the 20th century, there was colour photocopying to contend with. Even during the Second World War, the Germans pumped out fake British pound sterling as a weapon of war.
fellows hadn’t even noticed the Brinks truck.” They were, instead, just trying to pass fake notes at the different locations. The RCMP took over the investigation, and began a 10 month operation, at one point paying $125,000 to purchase fake bills. The operation led to a raid north of Toronto where two kingpins were caught – and later released on bail. In all $4.7 million in fake money was seized during the 2006 raid. But if there was a 2006 raid, that means that there must have been a second raid? Indeed, there was, for the two kingpins dropped below the radar. “These are not nice people,” said Moxley. “This is organized crime.” The two men were again arrested, and given 12 and 10 years each, but not before $4.2 million was collected at a raid in 2009. “If that amount of money gets into circulation… you are looking at real harm to the currency,” said Moxley, even though some of the money had already entered circulation. “The $20 bills are the workhorse (of paper money).” In years past, stores on nearby Mill Street had been victims of fake money – even fake $5 bills. When asked if, legally, stores were within their rights not to accept $100 or even $50 bills, Powell replied that “it’s up to them what they are willing to accept. They can say ‘I will only accept sea shells.’” Because criminals had been using fake $1,000 bills in a lot of their nefarious deeds, the Bank of Canada decided not to issue any more, and “got rid of the $1,000 bill because of the underground drug trade.” Another curb on criminals is that, eventually, the money will be taken out of circulation. “As soon as it gets to a bank, it is caught,” said Powell. With the rise of debit cards, the “use of currency is dropping a lot,” said Powell, making counterfeiting lose some of its appeal to the criminal element. “People use cash for relatively small transactions… but as more people use debit, this will go down.” Even so, “the onus is on you to check,” said Moxley. “Pay attention to the kinds of notes you get. Notes don’t have to be really good to be passed,” she said, pointing to one $10 bill that had its purple shaded in – with crayon. As the authors finished up their session, they encouraged the assembled to pick up a copy for Christmas – though, preferably more than one, lest they buy a single copy, and photocopy the rest.

EDITORIAL
What it’s all about Editorial – Life is a funny thing. Everyone on this planet is granted a certain number of days to make the most of a menial existence. From the time of self-conscientiousness, human beings seek purpose. Why are we here? What is it all about? These are the questions that haunt people. The meaning of life has been debated to death, amongst philosophers, psychologists, eccentrics and regular Joes. So much time has been spent trying to figure it out that life itself passes one by. The simple irony of life is that by the time you figure it all out, you’re an old man or woman living in a senior’s home. The sad truth is there is no meaning to life, except life itself. Where you go or end up, what you’ve done, why you did it and how, who you were with…none of it matters. You probably won’t remember 80 per cent of it anyway. A single moment can change your life. Reflect upon that thought. If the change exists within the moment, then aren’t those what you should be pay-
ing attention to, rather than the whole picture? Maybe life isn’t the big deal, but rather the moments. The first time you watch your child open a Christmas present with the look of pure excitement on their face, for example. If you’re too busy worrying about the turkey you have in the oven at the time, then you miss the moment. This backwards way of thinking is precisely what’s wrong with the human race. For centuries, humans spent their time just trying to survive. There was no down time, just back breaking labour to look forward to, otherwise you starved. Not that long ago, people like Albert Einstein and Thomas Edison arrived on the scene and started a trend of innovation. People began to create things that made life easier and more enjoyable, so they didn’t have to spend all day tending crops and livestock. It’s amazing how quickly the world changed. Trains, cars, tractors, antibiotics, radiation, refrigeration, convection, projection, mass production,
indoor plumbing and electricity. All of these things played major roles in transforming the human way of life. The funny thing is that now that people have enough time to enjoy life, they have created new obstacles for themselves to be distracted by, such as
being successful in their chosen field, making enough money to buy things, looking perfect and plugging into the internet. To better understand life, one must take a day off from it once and a while.
COLUMN
Christmas is under attack Opinion – In my opinion, there is too much political correctness at Christmas. For starters, some people would even prefer I not say Christmas (it has Christ in it). Oh well, to me, Jesus is the reason for the season. Continuing on, wish me Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukkah and I’ll be far from offended. In contrast, if you don’t say Merry Christmas to me, are you offending me because I do say it? Hmmm… If we are expected to call our decorated evergreens a holiday tree, which holiday are we talking about? We don’t put up holiday trees at Easter, Thanksgiving or New Year’s. That’s right… people put up a tree at Christmas. Should we honestly be singing songs such as Have Yourself a Merry Little Day of Winter or Frosty the Snowperson? Elvis didn’t sing Blue Holiday. Trust me, I could continue. Did you know there’s a new version of ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas? In order
that children are not encouraged to smoke it removes these two lines: “The stump of a Tara Firma pipe he held tight in his teeth/and the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.” Puh-leeze… let Santa smoke his pipe. As we head into December, I am already bracing myself for the number of area schools that will make their Christmas programs politically correct. Maybe they won’t even have one. To me Christmas is Christmas. I choose to celebrate it with my friends and family, just as other people can choose not to celebrate it, and just as others can decide to commemorate special holidays that are particular to their religion, etc. Regardless of how or if you celebrate the holidays, just remember to be with the ones you love.

DEAR EDITOR: Canadian government officials are working with those from 11 other nations to finalize the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). I am very concerned about the TPP, which is currently being negotiated without public input. We know from documents revealed by Wikileaks that the TPP includes an Internet Censorship plan that would make the Internet more policed, expensive and censored. Experts have pointed out that under the TPP, “kids could be sent to jail for downloading” and whole families could be kicked off the Internet. It would force Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to become Internet police and monitor my Internet use, censor website content, and remove entire websites from my view. It would also hinder our ability to access information and criminalize our every day use of the Internet. As a concerned citizen, I am speaking out for a free and open Internet. The TPP would also limit accessibility for disabled people. Visually impaired or deaf people would be criminalized for
circumventing digital locks on any digital materials they have purchased. This means they would be unable to convert them to braille, audio, or other accessible formats. I believe that the Internet should be open and accessible to everyone. In addition, the TPP’s proposal to force ISPs to install costly and invasive surveillance equipment into their networks gravely worries me. These added costs would drive up everyone’s Internet bills and could force smaller independent Internet providers out of business. I believe that Internet access is a right and should be kept open and affordable for everyone. Already more than 120,000 have signed the ‘Say No to Internet Censorship’ petition. I encourage everyone to learn more about TPP Internet Censorship before it’s too late at this website: https://OpenMedia.org/Censorship. I encourage each and every Canadian to learn more about the TPP at OpenMedia.org/Censorship. Jeramy Rutley Franktown

Sighting of female King Eider in Ottawa a first for columnist Lifestyle – The report of four female King Eiders at Andrew Haydon Park in Ottawa, prompted birders to try to see them. Within the first day, Nov. 13, three had flown south, heading for the east coast. On Nov. 13, I decided to try and see the remaining Eider. In the parking lot I asked another birder which direction to go. He pointed ahead to the Ottawa River shoreline. Over the little slope, several birders stood with telescopes focused on this sea duck. Two feet off shore, swam the female King Eider. The King Eider is 2” smaller than the Common

Milk bag weaving workshop provides beds for those in need Community – It’s hard to believe that something as simple as a bed, which we all take for granted, is considered a luxury in Africa, Haiti and other third world countries. Thanks to a small group of ladies from Carleton Place, many children can now sleep on a milk bag mat that serves as a bed, providing them with a good night’s sleep. The ladies gathered on Sept. 30 at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, taking part in a milk bag weaving workshop. Proving to be very successful, another workshop is planned for January 2014.
During the workshop, the ladies will demonstrate how to work on a loom that weaves the desperately needed mats. The process is much easier than it sounds. Don’t be scared. It takes three complete mats to make an adult size bed. The ladies put them together and then crochet around the outside to put a finished edge on them. It takes 500 to 600 milk bags to make just one mat. The ladies cut the milk bags with a cutting wheel and pad, which is easier and quicker than with scissors. Milk bags are always need-
ed, and if everyone started to save them, imagine how many mat beds could be made? Once finished, the mats are shipped to Africa and Haiti. This is a project that gives great joy to the heart, and when the ladies hold the finished products, they feel great satisfaction. Just knowing that a mat will provide one more child with a bed is comforting. Their dedication to this project is definitely a labour of love. When you get into your bed tonight, think of all of the children that are not as fortunate. Give Rhoda Anderson or
Ronette Vines a call today and join this group. Meet new ladies, share stories around the table and help make a difference in a child’s life. The goal is to make as many mat beds as possible. Helping hands and milk bags are needed. For more information on the milk bag weaving project, to donate milk bags or to take part in the upcoming workshop, please call Rhoda at 613-257-7964 or Ronette at 613-257-7143. From all of the children, thank you. Submitted by Fran Bryerton.

Get ready for Light Up the Night festival Dec. 6 in Mississippi Mills By KELLY KENT kkent@perfprint.ca
Community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Get ready: the brightest night of the year is just around the corner. The 23rd annual Light Up the Night event is coming back to the streets of Mississippi Mills again this year, bringing its festive spirit to town the evening of Friday, Dec. 6. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a huge event,â&#x20AC;? said community economic and cultural co-ordinator for Mississippi Mills, Tiffany MacLaren. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thousands of people come out every year.â&#x20AC;? Light Up the Night is an annual outdoor concert and lights show that takes place on Mill Street in Almonte. It is a much-anticipated event that is
attended by locals and out-oftowners alike. More than 4,000 people fill the streets and the sidewalks to take in the holiday-themed music, sip hot chocolate and take in the Christmas lights and fireworks show in one of the biggest outdoor events of its kind in the country. While the show has been popular every year, locals will be happy to know that Wayne Rostad, the Ottawa Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very own music phenomenon, will be back to host the show again after taking a break from the last event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited to have Wayne back again this year,â&#x20AC;? MacLaren said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was, and is, his show and he always does such a great job

Starting at 7 p.m. that night, the event boasts much of the same attractions that have made it such a successful tradition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a great mix of entertainment this year,â&#x20AC;? MacLaren said. Not only will Rostad be there, but another local music star, Brea Lawrenson will attend the event and perform a couple of her songs. Voices of Praise, another popular group, are back again this year along with Johnny Spinks, the Allan Martin Puppets, Marty McTiernan and Brad Munro and many more. While the performers entertain the huge crowds of people with festive tunes, Mr. and Mrs. Claus will make an appearance
alongside the Snow Queen and the Twinkle Fairies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sure to be a lot of fun,â&#x20AC;? MacLaren said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It always is. A lot of people attend every year and it has gotten to be extremely popular.â&#x20AC;?

Twice the fun at two Mississippi Mills Christmas parades Dec. 7 & 8 kkent@perfprint.ca
Pakenham parade The Pakenham Santa Claus Parade, which MacLaren says has been around as long as anyone can remember, will be much the same as the traditional parade everyone has come to know and love. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change much from year to year,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why change something that works so well?â&#x20AC;? The parade starts at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7 and leaves from the Stewart Community Centre, as always. The parade follows a route that consists mainly of the main street: County Road 29. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where people normally gather to watch,â&#x20AC;? MacLaren said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to see the whole parade from there.â&#x20AC;? The parade in Pakenham is traditionally includes 20 to 30 floats each year. People wishing to participate in the parade do not need to register ahead of time; MacLaren only asks that floats gather at the community centre an hour or two beforehand to get in line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have businesses who make floats, and locals who walk in the parade. Everyone and any-
Community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Just as the song promises, Santa Claus is coming to town. Actually, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be in Mississippi Mills several times this year and while heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s here heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be participating in the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two Santa Claus parades. Mississippi Mills is hosting its usual two annual Christmas parades again this year: one in Pakenham on Saturday, Dec. 7 and one in Almonte on Sunday, Dec. 8. Santa will form part of the finale of each parade, both of which have a White Christmas theme this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The two parades work together,â&#x20AC;? said community economic and cultural co-ordinator Tiffany MacLaren. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We use the same theme for each because a lot of people participate in both parades.â&#x20AC;? The White Christmas theme is exactly what it sounds like: MacLaren says the town encourages parade participants to embrace the theme and use a lot of bright, twinkling lights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thought it would be a good theme for this year,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to have
one can participate if they want to,â&#x20AC;? MacLaren said. During the parade, the Pakenham Civitan Club will be collecting donations for the Lanark County Food Bank. After all the floats and walking groups have had a chance to march down the route, everyone â&#x20AC;&#x201C; viewers and parade participants â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is invited to the Stewart Community Centre for a free skate, hot chocolate and hot dogs, which will be provided by the Thunder Grill. Almonte parade The Almonte Santa Claus Parade will once again be held at its new evening time this year, making it the second annual night parade in its history. Starting at 5 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 8, after it is dark enough for the lights on each float to shine and twinkle, Mill Street will come alive with festive sights and music. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got a lot of good feedback about the night parade,â&#x20AC;? MacLaren said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People seemed to really enjoy that is was different from the Pakenham parade, since a lot of people attend both.â&#x20AC;? The Almonte parade leaves from the Almonte Community
Centre and heads down Bridge Street to Mill Street. Most people line the sidewalks of Mill Street, where they can take in the whole line of floats as it makes its way down the hill. More than 40 floats joined the first night parade last year, over three times more than usually participated in the daytime parade, and MacLaren said they did a great job lighting up the street. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Part of the reason why we chose the White Christmas theme for this year is because we thought it would look pretty with all of the lights in the night parade,â&#x20AC;? MacLaren said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hoping even more people will light up their floats this year.â&#x20AC;? Much like the Pakenham parade, willing participants do not need to register beforehand. All they have to do is show up at the community centre a couple of hours before the parade starts to get in line. The 2nd Almonte Cubs Scout and Ventures will be collecting donations for the Lionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Club Christmas Food Basket campaign during the parade as well. Everyone is invited back to the Almonte Community Centre after the parade for a free skate, hot chocolate and hot dogs, which
will be provided by the Almonte Lionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Club. Each float or walking group that participates in either parade will receive a number and will be judged to win prizes in two categories: best overall and best use of theme. Winners in each category get
a trophy and, of course, bragging rights for a full year. Both parades are much anticipated and are sure to put everyone in the holiday spirit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both parades are a lot of fun,â&#x20AC;? said MacLaren. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope to see a lot of people come out this year.â&#x20AC;?

Celfest mascot delights students during visit to R. Tait McKenzie Public School Community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Recently, the children in Wendy Youngeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grade 2 class at R. Tait McKenzie Public School in Almonte were surprised by the sudden arrival of a very large leprechaun! On Friday, Nov. 8, Liam the Leprechaun, dressed formally in a top hat and green morning coat, appeared during a presentation by the Almonte Celtfest Society. As part of the Grade 2 study unit on celebrations and traditions, the Almonte Celtfest Committee was asked to visit the class and talk about its annual festival held every July in
Almonteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gemmill Park. The students assembled in the library, where they were met by members of the Celtfest committee and local fiddler extraordinaire and fiddle/step dance instructor, Cindy Thompson. Then, to the delight of the children, Liam appeared, dancing his way into the room. During the presentation, the children learned how the festival began in 1997 to celebrate the heritage and traditions of the Scottish and Irish immigrants who settled here in the Ottawa Valley in the 19th century. Next, Thompson entertained

Studio Theatre dishes up Christmas feast of laughter for whole family By JOAN SONNENBURG
Arts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;During my childhood in England, it was always a Boxing Day treat. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun. The whole family can go â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Grandma, Granddad and all the little kids can go as a family outing,â&#x20AC;? says Patricia Parry, director of Studio Theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Christmas pantomime, The Wonderful World of Mother Goose. And that is just what Studio Theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming production is â&#x20AC;&#x201C; fun for the cast, fun for the crew, and most of all, fun for the entire audience, youngsters and oldsters alike. This tale is not a traditional nursery rhyme. Far from it. The Wonderful Story of Mother Goose is filled with madcap characters, zany and sometimes naughty dialogue, and classic songs such as Shall We Dance, Skip to My Lou, The Man I Love. The story involves the familiar fairy
tale character oaf Mother Goose, played as you have never seen her by actor Joe Weber. Poor old Mother Goose and her family are being thrown out of their humble cottage by the evil Clarence Creep, played by Hugh McCullogh. The Fairy Queen (Norma Cummings), decides to help her out by sending Priscilla, (Brenda Roberts) a magical goose who proceeds to lay golden eggs. Although Brenda has never been on stage in her life, and Norma is more often than not the director or lighting techmician), they are both finding it great fun to be on stage in this play. Brenda is just thankful she has no lines. However, as in any self-respecting fairy tale, the question arises, can such great riches bring Mother Goose lasting happiness? The question is answered by a cast of other characters who involve the audi-
ence in this wacky caper, with Discord, the evil fairy played by Krista Duff, pitted against Harmony, the good fairy, played by Laurie Reesor. Into the fray come Mother Gooseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s silly son Billy (Lucas Tennant), her daughter Jill (Satinka Schilling), Jillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fiance Colin (Connor Lyon), and two comical characters, Onions and Sage, played by veteran actor/director David Parry and Paul Joyce who is usually happier promoting Studio Theatre productions than acting in them. A mixed cast to be sure, but they all have one thing in common: they are having the time of their lives. Those who have done previous pantos like Norma Cummings love this form of theatre. Krista Duff, who has not done a pantomime since high school, enjoys the general atmosphere. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything is funny,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
a fun-filled atmosphere with everybody just being crazy.â&#x20AC;? Fun for the cast, but even more fun for the audience members from fouryear-olds to 94-year-olds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kids go to, you call something out and they tell you to be quiet,â&#x20AC;? says Lucas Tennant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pantomime gives a true sense of entertainment and participation. Even if a kid calls out something, there is no real rule. Everyone who shows up â&#x20AC;&#x201C; tech people, audience members â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is a vital part of it.â&#x20AC;? The Wonderful Story of Mother Goose runs Dec. 5, 6, 7, 13 and 14 at 7:30 PM, with three matinees at 2 p.m. on Dec. 8, 14 and 15. Advance tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for children under 12 at the Book Nook (cash only) and Tickets Please (major credit cards accepted, fees apply, (613) 485-6434 R0032315052_1114

Arts – Humbug! The Mississippi Mudds of Carleton Place will be performing their Christmas pantomime Humbug! this holiday season. Mr. Scrooge has transported himself from the realm of the 1800s and brought us into the 20th century and the cast of the original characters has been slightly augmented with amusing, shall we say, psychedelic actors. Since no panto is complete without a dame, this show has not one dame, but two – Mrs. Slapan (played by Bryan McManus) and Mrs. Tickle (played by Laurie Dickson), the bumbling ladies from H.E.L.L. (Home for the Elderly Ladies League). The topsy-turvy world of pantos includes the lead roles of Scrooge and Dickens being played by female actors in this version. Meredith Millman has taken on the role of Scrooge while Trish Smith narrates the story as Charles Dickens. Along with the Cratchet family, the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future, the people Scrooge interacts with throughout his life, and the townspeople, it’s sure to be a crowdpleasing performance for all who dare to attend! Join Tiny Tim, Scrooge, Marley, Fezziwig, Belle and the rest of the cast for a yuletide story that will get you into the Christmas spirit with laughter and tears, singing and dancing. Performances will be at the Carleton Place Town Hall. Evening performances, at 7:30 p.m., are Friday, Nov. 29; Saturday, Nov. 30; Friday, Dec. 6; and Saturday, Dec. 7. Matinee performances, at 2 p.m., are Sunday, Dec. 1 and Saturday, Dec. 7. Evening performances are $20 and matinees, $15. Tickets will be sold at the Carleton Place & District Chamber of Commerce (132 Coleman Street, 613-257-1976). For more information, visit mississippimudds.ca.

Grade 10 girls get a taste of trades at recent UCDSB workshop News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Kitana Albers is not a â&#x20AC;&#x153;girlyâ&#x20AC;? girl. So she fit right in Nov. 18 as she and 25 other Grade 10 girls from schools across the Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) participated in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Living the Skilled Lifeâ&#x20AC;? workshop at the Kemptville Campus of the University of Guelph. The event was held to give young
girls a taste of the trades and get them thinking about them as a career choice. The St. Lawrence Secondary School student learned about heavy diesel engines, got to â&#x20AC;&#x153;virtual weldâ&#x20AC;? using a welding simulator and then used the real thing to make a jewelry stand, before getting her hands dirty learning proper planting techniques in
the greenhouse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really like traditional girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; stuff like watching kids and making dinner,â&#x20AC;? Albers said of her reason for attending the trades day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not really my thing.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just wanted to keep my options open and try it out and see if there is something here I want to do,â&#x20AC;? she added.
Albers was one of about 150 students attending one of five trades education days being held last week at the agricultural university as part of the event. Thirty students a day from both the UCDSB and Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario are participating in the event, which will expose young girls to the value of the trades. They began the day hear-
ing from female welderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apprentice Elizabeth Woods about the value of working in the trades, including a good wage, the ability to be creative in your work and the availability of future jobs. The availability of future jobs is why the day was funded by a See TRADES page 33

REGIONAL NEWS TRADES From page 32
special grant from the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities, and organized by the university in cooperation with Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP) facilitators from both boards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ontario is going to experience a real shortage of experienced tradespeople in the coming years,â&#x20AC;? said Alex MacDougall, OYAP facilitator
Connected to your community
for the UCDSB. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hopefully going to get young girls interested in the trades to help fill that need.â&#x20AC;? Studies suggest that in Ontario alone 26 per cent of the skilled trades workers will be retiring over the next ten years, said MacDougall. The day offered the introductory speech by Woods, followed by the chance to attend three sessions of nearly 90 minutes each in which the girls got a taste of the welding, hor-
ticulture and diesel engine mechanics trades. While Albers attended the event because of an interest in horticulture, she particularly enjoyed the chance to use a welding simulator at the event. The school brought in a simulator made by Lincoln Electric. Just like a video game, each girl who went through the simulation put on a helmet that took them into a virtual world. When they used the weld-
erâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wand on a special piece of angle iron, they saw a weld run across the iron through the simulatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s welderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helmet. The machine then evaluated the work for important aspects of a weld such as travel angle, work angle, travel speed and position of the weld. Each student received a score out of 100 to let them know how they did. In the diesel seminar, the girls learned about the tools used in mainte-
nance, saw different kinds of engines, and had a competition in two-women teams to see which team could bolt a tire in place the fastest. In the horticulture seminar, the girls toured the greenhouse, were introduced to plants such as rosemary and learned how to properly pot and care for an English ivy plant, which they were able to take home with them.

Every Christmas Story Ever Told: Serious silliness at Full Circle Theatre Arts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Take three wellknown community performers, serious men in their middle years, men with deep plays such as Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet and Whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? on their resumes. Put them together on the stage at Perthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Full Circle Theatre and tell them to perform Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some). Then get out of the way! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a recipe for serious silliness and BarnDoor Productions December offering is baked to perfection. David Bird, Joe Laxton and David Jacklin tear up the stage in the funniest, fastest and most nonsensical tribute to the holiday season ever put on stage. It all stems from David Birdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deep desire to perform Charles Dickensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; A Christmas Carol, a story he has performed many times, including a one-man version. The other two members of the cast are not quite as enthusiastic and agree on a compromise: theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll tell every other Christmas story first, then Dickens â&#x20AC;&#x201C; if thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time. The digressions include everything from Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer (or rather, for copyright reasons, Gustav The Green-nosed Reingoat), a swing through the Macyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Thanksgiving Parade, a few brief commercial interruptions, the Grinch, Frosty The Snowman, Christmas traditions around the world, a fruitcake themed game show and much more, all performed by three people and all in about 90 minutes. Director Janice Jacklin, with more than 30 years ex-
perience directing everything from Sweeney Todd to The Wizard of Oz, has decided that her part in this is not so much direction as refereeing: blow the whistle and see what happens. When the dust settles, she picks the best of the free-for-all and adds it to the comedy pile. The result is nonstop fun. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s music, of course; in fact, Every Christmas Carol Ever Sung. There are Christmas ghosts and a Christmas goat. There are grumpy old misers and tiny little Whos. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even an inflatable beagle on a doghouse and, you know, nothing says Christmas like giant inflatable doghouses. Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some), by Michael Carleton, James Fitzgerald and John K. Alvarez, is a great family show, with fun for young and old, although we recommend those with a still-unshakeable faith in St. Nick be left with the baby-sitter (no matter what their age). Not only is it entertaining, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s educational, too: did you know that naughty children in Spain are told they will be abducted by a Santa dressed all in black who will carry them off with him back to Holland â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and that children in Holland are told theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be taken to Spain? Makes you think. In fact, the show does that â&#x20AC;&#x201C; makes you think. In between the laughs and the fun, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an interesting little thread of thought about the place of Christmas in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world. Just a little thought â&#x20AC;&#x201C; enough to give you pause before the next piece of silliness brings the laughter back to the fore. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just
the ticket to generate the holiday spirit. Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some) will run at the Full Circle Theatre (Perthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
only ground-level, barrier-free theatre), 26 Craig Street, Perth, Dec. 6, 7, 12, 13, 14 at 8 p.m. and Dec. 8 and 15 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $20 reserved and $22 at the

We will miss everyone; the good times and laughter we had, the morning regular customers that were there “regardless of the time”. We appreciate everyone that was there for us.

THOMPSON With the passing of our Mother (Lois) we would like to thank our families, friends and relatives who sent heart warming cards, flowers, dropped off food or shared some little story that involved mother over her 84 years. Even yet we still have people sharing their sympathy with a hand shake or a few kind words. We are blessed to be surrounded by a neighbourhood of this quality. You will live in our hearts forever. As always whether in joy or sadness the Heckston UCW had the resources to draw on and step in to welcome the community. We thank you for being there. On May 10 2013 there was a part of our lives that stopped and now we would be drawing on all the memories. With help from Victoria Byers and her staff at Byers Funeral Home we were allowed to focus on what was really important at this time, while they looked after all the details in a most respectful and professional manner. Thank you. We would like to thank Rev. Brian Barr for conducting the service for Mother as if he had known her all his life when in fact he had never met her before. We are thankful our community is made up of people like him. Thank you to Pat Sugarman for the music that allowed our thoughts to travel to a special memory we had of mother. Many thanks to the staff at Bayshore Home Health and Gamma-Dynacare for having a smiling face every time they came to the house no matter what time of the day it might have been. A special thank you to Dr. Blaine and his staff for all their care and attention to mother’s health requirements over the many years. DEATH NOTICE

Ruth Elinor (nee Robertson) Moore
March 3, 1920 ~ November 24, 2013 A life of ninetythree years defined by a sixty-eight year marriage, a spirit of independence, a zest for life, still driving her car and managing her affairs. Ruth grew up in the Toronto Beaches experiencing the 30’s and on through the war years as a military bride. Her husband George (1917 - 2007) was overseas and they would later return to Paris, France at S.H.A.P.E. Headquarters in the ebullient 50’s where they shared the post-war challenges and excitement of building a modern era alongside their American counter-parts. They settled back in Canada in Ottawa plus the Perth area lake country and finally in Perth itself. Life was a celebration, a hard work ethic with humour and a conservative take on politics well cured by life’s experiences. Still reading, still laughing, still a class act to the last, her spirit lives on. Ruth was a devoted Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother to her three girls Judy (Ken), Meredith (Dave) and Kingsley Ruth. A service and interment will take place at the National Military Cemetery, Beechwood, Ottawa, Ontario Saturday December 21st, 2013 at 10:30 A.M. with a celebration of her life to follow. As the Christmas Season approaches, donations in memory of Ruth to the Salvation Army would be appreciated. Arrangements are in the care of Blair & Son Funeral Directors, 15 Gore St. West, Perth, Ontario.

Gary was one who loved to travel both in his work driving for Cassidy’s of United Vanlines and North American Vanlines ending his driving career with the local paper the Record News.

He will be welcomed with open arms by his parents and friends that passed prior. Gary is survived by his wife Margo Knight of Smiths Falls, daughter Patricia Dow (husband Richard Goddard) and grandchildren Eric and Alexa of Ottawa.

pressure sensors are an important safety feature, none of my customers have ever chosen to use them on winter tire and rim packages (yes, I explain the pros and cons to each customer). What these customers have chosen to accept is the responsibility we all had before the tire pressure sensing systems came out; we use a tire pressure gauge (available at any auto store for around $10-$15) and check our tires frequently throughout the winter. It only takes a few moments and should be done every few weeks or so and especially before heading out on a long trip. Having a set of dedicated winter rims has its advantages. It keeps your summer rims (especially if they’re alloys) from being exposed to winter salt and grit which can cause surface pitting and finish peeling. It also reduces the cost of seasonal tire changeovers. Depending on the costs of specific winter rims and your shop’s tire change-over fees, it usually takes at least four winters to break even cost-wise by using winter rims instead of swapping tires on your summer rims. It’s interesting that most of the latest safety gear on cars like tire pressure sensing systems, collision mitigation systems, lane departure and blind spot warnings all came about because collectively we as drivers have given up part of our responsibility to drive and maintain our cars in a safe manner. None of these systems would be needed if we simply did things ourselves like check our blind spots before lane changes or check our own tire pressures or leave enough distance between us and cars around us according to road and traffic conditions.

Community – Too many Canadians are struggling just to put food on the table, and food bank use continues to hover at record levels according to Hunger Count 2013, a national study released in early November by Food Banks Canada. The report highlights in a typical month, food banks in Canada now provide food to more than three quarters of a million separate individuals – 833,000 – people and nearly four of 19 of those helped are children. “Far too many people are looking into an empty fridge and wondering how they are going to feed themselves and their kids”, said Katherine Schmidt, executive director of Food Banks Canada, which coordinated the national study involving more than 4,000 food programs. The Hunger Count 2013 study found that: • Each month, 80,000 Canadi-
ans are forced to ask for help from a food bank for the first time. • Nearly 40,000 of those helped each month are seniors with incomes too meager to afford enough food. • One in six households assisted by food banks have employment income, yet still can’t make ends meet. “The inability to obtain enough food, when it is abundant all around us, is physically and psychologically scaring,” continued Schmidt. “It is simply unacceptable in a nation as prosperous as Canada. We are calling on the federal and provincial governments to make real investments in policies that will help reduce the need for food banks.” A recent initiative by the Ontario provincial government to create a tax credit for farmers donating to food banks is definitely a step in the right direction. The recent amend-
ment to the Local Food Act creates a non-refundable tax credit worth 25 per cent of the current market value the donated agricultural product to farmers who donate to a community food program. At the Lanark County Food Bank we are well aware of the impact that poverty has on many families in the area. The food bank helps more than 500 people monthly and of those about 36 per cent are children. On average there are approximately 15 new applicants every month. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the many supporters and volunteers of the food bank. As we now enter the holiday season our shelves are becoming well stocked and contain a variety of essential food items. Every year at this time the people and businesses of our area show their support by participating in several locally sponsored events. As a result of our participation
in the Carleton Place Halloween Parade this year, more than 1,000 pounds of food was collected for the food bank. This is an annual event that we participate in each year and our thanks go out to all those who made a food or monetary donation. Our largest and most successful event of the year, the Build a Mountain Campaign resulted in the collection of more than 11,400 pounds of food and more than $2,000 in donations. This is the fifth consecutive year of the Build a Mountain Campaign and every year we are amazed by the support from our local businesses and the residents of Lanark County. We would like to give a very special thank you to Hugh Colton with Town and Country Chrysler in Smiths Falls for organizing and promoting this event as he has done since the beginning of this annual See FOOD BANK page A/CP20

At a recent meeting of the Almonte Junior Civitan Club, President Owen Farrier presented Hub Hospice Board member Eloise Caverson with a cheque for $300.00. The Hospice is most grateful to be honoured in this fashion, especially by a youth group, who understands that hospice care affects all ages. The Almonte Junior Civitan Club works closely with their counterparts who are instrumental in providing health care equipment on a loan basis. This service can often be used by hospice clients in need of it. The Hub Hospice is part of a coalition of service providers including the Ottawa Valley Health Team, the hospital, the Mills Corporation, and other agencies. One call is all that is needed to access the required and appropriate care. The hospice website at www. hubhospice.com entails the scope of this service. The community support for the new Hub Hospice has been appreciated, from the Hike for Hospice in early May that raised nearly $5000.00 to the many donations from churches, service clubs, and individuals. Hospice support is provided free to clients and families, so community support is essential to its survival.

Canadians run home streak to 15 games, climb to third spot in national rankings the win. Anthony Walsh closed things out with a late goal for the Braves. Laforest earned first star honours for the Canadians with a 32-save performance. His Braves counterpart, Andrew Pikul, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fare as well, stopping 26 of 31 shots fired his way. Canadians dominated on special teams, keeping the Braves off the scoresheet despite seven power play opportunities, while connected on one of their three chances with the man advantage.

Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Carleton Place Canadians are just about at the summit of Canadian Junior A hockey. The runaway leaders of the Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL) are now ranked third overall in the country after posting another two dominant wins this past week. Canadians, with a record of 26-5-0-1 (53 points), lead the Robinson Division standings by 10 points over the Smiths Falls Bears (20-9-3-0). They also lead the Yzerman Division-leading Pembroke Lumber Kings by nine points. Last Friday in Navan, the Canadians broke open a tight game with a pair of late second-period goals, then pulled away in the third for a 5-1 win over the Cumberland Grads. At home Sunday afternoon, they jumped all over the Brockville Braves early, then rode the hot hand of goalie Justin Laforest for a second straight game in posting a 5-2 victory, the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 15th straight win at home this season. In front of close to 350 fans at the Neelin Street Community Centre, Canadians dominated the Braves in the first period, building a 3-0 lead after 20 minutes on goals by Stephen Baylis, Adam Lloyd and Evan Peterson. Craig Pefley made it 4-0 with his 10th goal of the season 1:46 into the second period before Nathan Todd of the Braves
Canadians 5 Grads 1 Two nights earlier, Laforest was the star again with 27 saves in the Canadiansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 5-1 win over the Grads. The Almonte native, now with a 14-2 record between the pipes with Carleton Place this season, allowed just the single goal to Mark Golberg at 15:13 of the second period. At the time, that tied things 1-1 after Andy Sturtz had put the Canadians up 1-0 just 37 seconds earlier. But backed by Laforestâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strong netminding, Carleton
Place pulled away, sparked by a power play goal from Kelly Summers at the 18:44 mark, from Brett Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Andrea and Evan Peterson. The dagger came less than a minute later with Anthony McVeigh converting passes from Tyson Stewart and Larry Smith at 19:39, giving the visitors a 3-1 lead heading to the break. Canadians limited the Gradsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; chances in the third before salting the game away late. With Devin Campbell in the box for tripping at 14:49, the Grads pulled goalie Reilly Turner for an extra attacker, giving them a two-man advantage. Despite the heavy pressure, Laforest held the Grads at bay until his teammates could get control of the puck and score the insurance goal into the empty net. Stephen Baylis had the honours, assisted by Kelly Summers. Pefley added a power play goal at 17:09, from Summers and Adam Lloyd to close out the scoring. Not surprisingly, Laforest was named the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first star. Evan Petersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two assists earned him third star honours. Mark Golberg,
Extra shots â&#x20AC;˘ The Canadians had an early start to their week, traveling to the KRC on Tuesday night to take on the Kanata Stallions. Friday, they have a Robinson Division showdown in Smiths Falls with the Bears who enter the game having won seven of their past eight. Game time at the Memorial Community Centre is 7:30 p.m. Sunday the Canadians will look to extend their perfect home record over 16 games against the Stallions. Puck drop is 3 p.m. â&#x20AC;˘ Now at the midway point to the season, Andy Sturtz continues to lead all CCHL scorers in points (54) and goals (25). Teammate Evan Peterson sits second with 51 points and 19 goals. He does lead the league in assists with 32. â&#x20AC;˘ Only the Fort McMurray Oil Barons and Spruce Grove Saints of the AJHL (Alberta) rank higher than Carleton Place in the CJHL Top 20 rankings. Pembroke Lumber Kings rank 13th this week.

Thunder snap losing skid with overtime win against Pontiacs By STAFF
Sports – Nick Villeneuve scored at 3:36 of overtime giving the hometown Almonte Thunder a big 7-6 win over the visiting Shawville Pontiacs in Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League action Saturday night. The win snapped a five-game losing streak for the club. Terry Mallon and Brandon Mendham earned the assists on the game-winning goal. Despite the stretch of tough losses, the win jumps the Thunder into fourth place in the Valley Division with 16 points (6-81-3), one behind the Perth Blue Wings and one ahead of both the Pontiacs and Stittsville Royals. Renfrew Timberwolves and Arnprior Packers lead the way with 24 points. Saturday night, the Thunder built a 5-2 second period lead
only to have the Pontiacs storm back with three late in the frame to tie the game 5-5 after 40 minutes. Andrew Rowbotham, with his second goal of the contest, restored Almonte’s lead, assisted by Mallon and Mendham, 3:35 into the third period. But Mathew Labrosse squared things again less than five minutes later, unassisted. Rowbotham led the way for the Thunder with a pair of goals and one assist. The team’s top scorer, Liam Killeen, also had a big game with a goal and two assists. That was matched by Mallon while Mendham recorded three assists. Labrosse scored a hat trick for the Pontiacs and added one assist. Friday night in Renfrew, the Timberwolves fired 54 shots on
Santa’s coming to Rona
goal and doubled up the Thunder 6-3. Again, Andrew Rowbotham scored a pair of goals for Almonte who held a 2-1 lead midway through the first before the Wolves struck for a pair of goals late in the period to take a 3-2 after 20 minutes. They extended that advantage to 5-3 in the second with goals from Pat Dick and Luke Lapierre countering Justin Shimizu’s marker for the Thunder. Sean Kyte made it 6-3 just 23 seconds into the third period. Despite firing 16 shots over the final 20 minutes, Thunder were unable to beat goalie Matt Schroeder the rest of the way. For the game, Schroeder recorded 40 saves off 43 Thunder shots. Almonte’s goaltending duties were shared between starter Alex Daley and Richard Barr.

Canadians goalie earns CCHL player of the week honours Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Back-to-back wins and backto-back first star honours have prompted the Central Canada Hockey League to name Carleton Place Canadians goalie Justin Laforest Corporate Hype Player of the Week. The talented netminder had an outstanding week guiding the #3 ranked Canadians to two wins over the Cumberland Grads and Brockville Braves. The Almonte native posted a 1.50 goals against average and a .952 save percent-
age. Laforest is enjoying a personal six-game winning streak and currently has an impressive 14-2-0-0 record this season. The CCHL features two teams in the Canadian Junior Hockey League (CJHL) Top 20 this week. The Carleton Place Canadians jumped three spots from #6 last week to #3 in the national rankings while the Pembroke Lumber Kings jump from an Honorable Mention to #13 in Canada.

All three cars in this story are parked in Herm’s driveway with Herm’s 1967 Silver Shadow flanked by son Greg’s ’69 Mustang fastback and son Bob’s 1994 Jaguar V-12 convertible.
Mustang has been in same family for 44 years Lifestyle – In 1969, tomato farmer Herm Dick purchased a new Mustang fastback with a 302 V8 and automatic transmission from Slater Motors in Leamington for $3,900. Herm and his wife Elizabeth enjoyed driving the car. Eventually, Herm gave the car to their son Dennis, who courted his wife in the Mustang. Herm later bought it back from Dennis for $500 and passed it along to son Greg, who still owns it today. About ten years ago, the Mustang was fully restored by Dennis Pilon, who demonstrated the perfect fit between the hood and front fenders by rolling a marble from the windshield all the way to the front of the car. This Mustang has now been in the same family for 44 years. Son Bob purchased his white 1994 Jaguar V-12 convertible from a dealer in Windsor in 2006. This past summer, he was standing beside his car in Tecumseh accompanied by Herm’s daughter Joan Epp and grand-daughter Jessica, this year’s Leamington Tomato Queen. MPP Percy Hatfield approached Bob and wondered why he was standing beside his car! A quick look at the license plate ended the confusion. Percy has an identical car and for a moment thought
Bob’s car was his car. Bob and Percy own cars with a distinguished history. Jaguar Cars Limited was founded in 1945 and produced many sleek-looking convertibles and sedans that raced at Le Mans. In recent years, the emphasis has been on luxury, and some owners claim a Jaguar built today is quieter than a Rolls-Royce! And that brings us to Herm’s 1967 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, purchased earlier this year from a young man in Richmond Hill, Ontario, who had received it from his father. On a nice sunny day recently, Herm treated Catherine and me to a ride all around Leamington in regal splendour. Herm’s Rolls has serial #SRX2386 and I am now doing some detective work to uncover the earlier ownership history of this lefthand-drive car.

The history of Rolls-Royce dates back to 1904 when Manchester electrical engineer Henry Royce teamed up with the Hon. C. S. Rolls to build high quality automobiles. The first few models had two, three, and four cylinder engines, followed by six cylinders. In 1959, Rolls brought out a 6231 cc V8 engine. The 1965 Silver Shadow introduced unit construction and all-around independent suspension. Herm’s ’67 Silver Shadow was built two years later and still looks like new!

Hydro One offers tips to prevent electrical fires News – Electrical fires accounted for nine per cent of all structural fires between 2007 and 2011. • Keep electrical cords away from heat and water as they can both damage the insulation and create a shock hazard. • Avoid octopus outlets. Clusters of wires and plugs can be a fire hazard along with using extension cords as permanent wiring. • Put safety caps on any unused elec-
trical outlets, especially if there are young children in the house. • Buy appliances approved by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and always disconnect small appliances before cleaning them. • When you’re changing a light bulb, be sure to turn off the switch or circuit. • If you’re renovating, remember all electrical work must be inspected and approved by the Electrical Safety Authority. This inspection must be done
prior to covering any wiring with drywall or any other wall/ceiling materials. • When purchasing a new home, get an electrical inspection before signing on the dotted line. It will show you if any updates to the wiring are required to bring the house up to code.

Lawrence catches fire again in Hunger Games sequel MOVIE: Catching Fire STARRING: Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Donald Sutherland DIRECTOR: Francis Lawrence RATING: PG Arts – The world of The Hunger Games is dark, but there’s also something very gripping about it. Catching Fire takes us further into this story as the Games, the Capitol’s tool of oppression, becomes the spark of rebellion. Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) have returned to District 12 after winning the Hunger Games, but they soon learn what Haymitch (Woody Harrelson) always knew. For victors the Games are never over. The victors are expected to tour the other districts, but there’s been trouble in the districts. Some have seen Katniss’ actions as an act of defiance. President
My Take MARK HASKINS
Snow (Donald Sutherland) tells Katniss that if she and Peeta don’t convince the public of their undying love than the consequences for her and everyone she knows will be grave. With the help of Haymitch and Effie (Elizabeth Banks) Katniss and Peeta do all they can, but it isn’t enough. Katniss is still a symbol of hope that Snow must destroy. To that end, for the 75th Hunger Games, Snow declares that the tributes will be chosen from among past victors. Once again Katniss and Peeta will
have to face the horror of the Games, but there’s a different feeling among the tributes and the people for these Games. Snow hopes to use these Games to squash that feeling. Others hope to use these Games for something else. As Katniss leaves for the arena Haymitch reminds her to remember who the real enemy is. Katniss knows who her enemies are. She also knows in the Games there are no friends. There were some discrepancies between the book and the film. Regardless, Catching Fire is an incredible film. This world with its stark contrast between
poverty and depravity is oddly fascinating. You’re drawn to the story and horrified by it at the same time. The difference I think is Katniss. She begins as a survivor doing what she has to. Then in the face of certain death she chooses to fight, and not just those in the arena, but those who put her there. In such a dark world hers is a story of the brightest hope. Visually this world is brought to life in remarkable detail. Still, without the right cast this world would be dead no matter how good the effects are. And this is the right cast. Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Lenny Kravitz, Philip Seymour
Hoffman, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth and Donald Sutherland are perfect. There just isn’t another word for it. There’s no mistaking the star of this film. Jennifer Lawrence shines brightly as Katniss. Her depth of emotion and sensitivity as an actor are such that it’s impossible to say where Lawrence ends and Katniss begins. I’m still not sure what it says about our society that a story about kids killing kids for entertainment is as popular as it is. I am sure that Catching Fire is an incredible film.

Jingle Bells Dashing throâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the snow In a one horse open sleigh, Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;er the ďŹ elds we go, Laughing all the way; Bells on bob-tail ring, Making spirits bright, O what fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight!
Rudolph Deck the Red-Nosed the Halls Reindeer
Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la la la la la la. â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la la la la la. Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la la la la la la la. Troll the ancient Yuletide carole, Fa la la la la la la la la.
You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen, But do you recall the most famous reindeer of all?
See the blazing Yule before us, Fa la la la la la la la la. Strike the harp and join the chorus, Fa la la la la la la la la. Follow me in merry measure, Fa la la la la la la la la. While I tell the Yuletide treasure, Fa la la la la la la la la.
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose And if you ever saw it you would even say it glows. All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names, They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games.
Santa Claus is Coming to Town You better watch out, You better not cry Better not pout, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m telling you why Santa Claus is coming to town Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s making a list, And checking it twice; Gonna ďŹ nd out Whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s naughty and nice. Santa Claus is coming to town He sees you when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sleeping He knows when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re awake He knows if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been bad or good So be good for goodness sake! O! You better watch out! You better not cry. Better not pout, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m telling you why. Santa Claus is coming to town.
Jingle bells, Jingle bells! Jingle all the way! O what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh! A day or two ago I thought Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d take a ride, And soon Miss Fannie Bright Was seated by my side; The horse was lean and lank, Misfortune seemâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d his lot He got into a drifted bank, And we, we got up-sot. (Repeat Chorus) Now the ground is white, Go it while youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re young, Take the girls tonight, And sing the sleighing song. Just get a bob-tailed nag, Two forty for his speed, Then hitch him to an open sleigh, And crack! youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take the lead. (Repeat Chorus)
Frosty the Snowman
Then one foggy Christmas eve Santa came to say: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rudolph with your nose so bright, wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you drive my sleigh tonight?â&#x20AC;? Then now the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go down in history.â&#x20AC;?
Frosty the Snowman was a jolly happy soul, With a corn cob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal. Frosty the Snowman is a fairy tale they say, He was made of snow but the children know how he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found, For when they placed it on his head he began to dance around.
R0012442438_1128
Oh Frosty the Snowman was alive as he could be, and the children say he could laugh and play just the same as you and me. Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, look at Frosty go. Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Over the hills and snow.

Away in a Manger
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head. The stars in the bright sky, look down where He lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay. The cattle are lowing the Baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes. I love Thee, Lord Jesus; Look down from the sky, And stay by my side until morning is nigh. Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care, And ďŹ t us for Heaven, to live with Thee there.

O Little Town of Bethlehem O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, The silent stars go by; Yet in the dark streets shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary; And gathering all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth, And praises sing to God the King, And peace to men on earth. How silently how silently, The wonderous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heaven. No ear may hear His coming; But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him, still The dear Christ enters in. O Holy Child of Bethlehem, Descend to us, we pray; Cast out our sin, and enter in; Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel.

The Holly and the Ivy The holly and the ivy when they are both full grown, Of all the trees that are in the woods, The holly bears the crown. The rising of the sun, the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir. The holly bears a berry as red as any blood, And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, To do poor sinners good. The holly bears a prickle as sharp as any thorn, And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, On Christmas Day in the morn.

Drugs and driving – a deadly combination offence under the Criminal Code of Canada. Most jurisdictions also have sanctions under highway traffic acts. In 2011, more than 90,000 impaired driving charges were laid in Canada. This number, however, represents only a fraction of the impaired drivers on our roads. • There is a growing body of drug recognition experts (DRE) in Canada, who work to enforce penalties for driving under the influence of drugs. In cases where impairment by drugs is suspected, sobriety tests are being used to check for the source of impairment. A DRE can be called in to access the condition of a suspected impaired driver and may collect or arrange to collect a swab, urine or blood sample. If the results come back positive for the suspected drug or drugs, charges can be laid under the Criminal Code of Canada. • Female drivers are almost equally likely as males to test positive for drugs. • Driving after cannabis use is more commonplace among those ages 15 to 24 than drinking and driving, according to a 2013 report by the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse. In that age group, 12.6 per cent surveyed admitted to driving after cannabis use; this compares to 10.7 per cent who drove after drinking. • Young drivers between 16 and 24 lead the way in fatalities that involved alcohol and/or drugs. According to statistics from the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse, 27.6 per cent of fatalities among this age group were impaired by alcohol. Compare this with 26.9 per cent of fatalities who were impaired by drugs. Aware of licensing restrictions and initiatives that catch and punish drunk drivers, some people are turning from alcohol to substances such as drugs to achieve a high. But as the statistics indicate, the outcomes are even more – not less – dangerous and deadly. • Among fatally injured drivers 55 and older, drug use is more prevalent than alcohol. • The most common drugs found in fatalities are central nervous system depressants, cannabis, stimulants and narcotics.
Recommendations • Be proactive and stop drugged driving before it happens. • Be responsible. Never drive when impaired. • Do not combine drugs and alcohol. • Do not use illegal drugs. The impairment caused by illegal drugs can take hours and even days to wear off. • Do not use drugs of any variety to get high. • Know the side effects of your medications. Read the inserts that come with your medications and speak with your pharmacist about the drugs’ possible impacts on your driving abilities. • Be aware that drugs interact with each other. Review your list of medications with your pharmacist. • Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of your medication if alcohol is consumed. • With prescription and overthe-counter drugs, abuse or misuse can happen and needs to be recognized and corrected. This means that you should not exceed recommended dosages. You should not take someone else’s medicine, or use medicine to get high. Further, it means that you should read and respect labels and warnings. • As a host, monitor your guests’ behaviour. Monitoring or preventing drug use can be difficult. You need to be watching your guests for signs of unusual behaviour, such as jitters or unexplained mood-swings. If you suspect someone is impaired, speak up and make alternate, safe arrangements for transportation. • If you have friends or family members who use illegal drugs, clearly communicate to them that your home is not a place where they can get high. Be sympathetic and supportive by encouraging them to get the help they need to overcome their addiction. • Do not get in a vehicle if the driver is impaired. Make every safe effort to stop an impaired person from operating a vehicle. • Report impaired driving to the police. Whether by drugs, alcohol, fatigue or some other contributing factor, there is no excuse for impaired driving.

Lifestyle – The holiday season brings with it familiar and necessary messages reminding Canadians to drive sober. While impairment behind the wheel is most often associated with alcohol, motorists are also gambling with their safety and the safety of others by driving under the influence of drugs. These drugs include illegal substances, prescription medications and over-the-counter remedies. “Unfortunately, people are more afraid of being caught than being killed,” said Jack Smith, president of the Canada Safety Council. “They don’t think it’s going to happen to them until it happens.” This National Safe Driving Week, from Dec. 1 to 7, the Canada Safety Council seeks to educate Canadians that driving while under the influence of drugs is dangerous, irresponsible, illegal and becoming increasingly prevalent. It is posing a significant public safety risk that needs to be curbed through preventative measures, awareness and the enforcement of appropriate penalties. Drugged driving facts • The Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse reports that more than a third – 35.3 per cent – of fatally injured drivers in Canada tested positive for impairing drugs in 2009. This compares with 40.9 per cent of driver fatalities in the same year where alcohol was the source of impairment. Simply put, drugged driving is just as deadly and prevalent as drunk driving. It is a serious problem that needs to be addressed. • Serious injury, driver or passenger death, hurting bystanders, destroying property, lost productivity, more strain on the health-care system – these are just some of the unfortunate, painful and yet totally preventable consequences of driving while impaired by drugs. • Drug-involved fatal crashes are more likely than alcoholinvolved crashes to occur during the daytime hours on weekdays. • Drugs are impairing because they reduce drivers’ reaction times and their attention to the task of driving. • Impaired driving is an
