Canoe club celebrates 125 years TARA GESNER tgesner@metroland.com It is the 125th anniversary of the Carleton Place Canoe Club (CPCC). "Our big gala weekend is July 21-22, but we have lots of things happening throughout the year," CPCC commodore Kerri-Ann Redwood told the Canadian Gazette. Located in the heart of town on the shores of the picturesque Mississippi River, the CPCC has been in existence since 1893 - the oldest club in Canada and the only surviving charter member of the Canadian Canoe Association. The operations of the club focus on the sport of flatwater sprint canoe and kayak racing. "We have lots of committees in place, planning for this year," Redwood said. "These committees are run by parent volunteers." With planning starting in January, "none of this could ever happen without our volunteer base," she added. "We also partnered with the Carleton Place &

Beckwith Heritage Museum." The museum launched its 2018 summer exhibit (Paddles UP!) in May, which is dedicated to the history of the CPCC. Championship banners hang everywhere, and there is an abundance of photos, trophies, awards and memorabilia. There is even a canoe on display, belonging to Mississippi Mills Coun. John Edwards. Edwards grew up paddling at the CPCC. He became the first Olympic competitor from the club when he competed in the C1 and C2 1000-metre (m) races at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal. He placed ninth in the final of the C1 1000m and was eliminated with partner Jeremy Abbott in the repêchage of the C2 1000m. The exhibit runs until Oct. 6. The annual CPCC regatta this weekend is the club's most important event of the competitive calendar, with competitors of all ages from clubs in Ontario and Quebec participating. "There will be 600-plus people here," Redwood said. "Everyone l See CANOE, page 12

Perth Brewery celebrates 25 years of craft beers Birthday party Aug. 10 to feature Jamie Fine x Elijah Woods LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com In 1993, Joe Carter hit a walk-off three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth against the Philadelphia Phillies as the Blue Jays went on to win their second consecutive World Series title. And fans in Perth were celebrating with some handmade beers, crafted at the newly-opened Perth Brewery. Yes, it's been 25 years since the Perth Brewery opened its brew-on-premise facility in the Herriott Street business court. What started there as a 2,000-square foot small business on Feb. 26, 1993,
has grown to 14,000-square foot production facility where more than a dozen brands of beer are carefully crafted at 121 Dufferin St. on Highway 7. "We have had seven expansions since we moved here, (to Dufferin Street) and we have another expansion planned for this winter," says owner Jeremy Steeves from the newlybuilt patio at the front of the brewery. He operates the business with his father, Terry Steeves, and Cathy Brown, Terry's partner. Perth Brewery has become a destination for those seeking a craft beer experience. You can purchase such brands as their most popular Last Duel Lager in selected LCBO and The Beer Store locations. "I think it's a sign of the times," Steeves says as to why the brewery has become such a popular hot spot. "People want more of a story, or an experience,

about what is in their beer and how it is made. I feel the times are suggesting this."
They use local products when they can, and on a larger scale, they buy Canadian.

For instance, the sweetness in their Honey Lager comes is from Backwoods Honey, and the maple syrup in the Oh Canada Maple ale is from Temple's Sugar Bush Ltd. Both these small businesses are located in Lanark Highlands. Visitors can enjoy a pint or a flight in the tap room, take a guided tour, buy some merchandise, or grab a six-pack or a keg to go. "In the last few years there has been a lot more demand and consumer interest in craft beer," Steeves says. "People are asking questions about all their products. I feel as a whole, consumers have been taken advantage of for a number of years and now we have more interest and awareness." "Moving to our current location on Highway 7 has been great for accessibility and visibility," Steeves says. The owners are active in the community, getting involved in events like the Perth Kilt Run, Stewart Park Festival, Fire and Ice Festival, Rib Fest, etc. "We get as involved as many Ottawa craft beer events as possible," he says. "But we do have our beers in bars and restaurants and LCBOs across eastern Ontario." Steeves says he's happy with how business looks now, and how they've grown. "I always wanted to be able to provide what we're doing now," he says of their larger-scale production. From the state-of-theart production facility and retail distribution centre, to having the products in local bars and restaurants, has been the owners' goals. The challenge of the operation now is finding enough storage space, as thousands of litres of lagers, ales, IPAs, darks and stouts that are being produced. Steeves says they are in need of more fermentation capacity, which can take up to four weeks, depending on the style of beer. Perth Brewery now has 28 employees, and will celebrate 25 years in business l See BREWERY, page 13

‘Icelandic model’ proposed as crime prevention strategy for Lanark County youth DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com
Mental illness As many as 500,000 Canadians, in any given week, are unable to work due to mental illness, according to the Mental Health Commission of Canada. Furthermore, a 2017 study found that 11 per cent of Grade 7 to 12 students in Ottawa have considered suicide in the past year. However, there are
some silver linings to be found among youth. "Young people are a lot more open about talking about what is happening in their lives," said Somppi. Back in 1998, substance abuse among 15 and 16year-olds was rampant in Iceland. "Iceland had the worst data for youth back in the late 90s," said Somppi. As of 2017, "they have the best performance," with declines in cannabis experimentation, daily smoking, and being drunk within the past 30 days. Theft among Grade 10 students in Iceland also saw a marked decline from 1997 to 2016. l See MODEL, page 9

It's not surprising that an island home to the midnight sun would provide some illuminating ideas on crime prevention. A local group is seeking to bring the so-called "Icelandic Model" to Lanark County, in part by targeting young people and addressing the root causes of crime, like mental illness and addiction, using evidence-based solutions. David Somppi, chair of the municipal drug strategy committee of Carleton Place, commended Lanark County OPP's recent announcement that it was seeking to hire a full-time
mental health nurse to work out of their Perth headquarters. "Police are the front line to dealing with mental illness," said Somppi, during a presentation to the Lanark County Association of Police Services Boards meeting on June 27.

Memorial golf tournament for Dustin Littau raises $34,000 On Friday June 15, under beautiful blue skies and perfect temperatures, we held our inaugural #DonateForDustin Memorial Golf Tournament. The tournament was held at Mississippi Golf Club, in memory of Dustin Littau who lost his battle with cancer July 19, 2017 at the age of 31. During Dustin's courageous battle he received more than 150 units of blood products in 11 weeks. Our families have made it our mission to replenish the blood that Dustin received and promote awareness of the importance of donating. Because of people who donated we were given the gift of time with Dustin, and we want to make sure other families are given that gift also. Two families - the Littaus of Kemptville and the Virgins of Almonte, plus two towns - came together to celebrate the game that Dustin loved most and
raise some monies for three charities that helped Dustin in his battle. With the generosity of Kemptville and Almonte businesses and family and friends we well surpassed our expectations. A total of $34,000 was raised for three charities with $17,000 presented to Canadian Blood Services; $15,000 to Almonte General Hospital and $2,000 to Little Angels Blood Cancer Fund. Dusty started playing golf at age 11 and was involved in running the junior program at Rideau Glen Golf Club in Kemptville. Dustin's five nieces and nephews, aged 1 to 4.5, ran "Uncle Dusty's Lemonade Stand" and sold lemonade to the thirsty golfers. They raised $1,000 and this money will be split between eQuinelle Golf Club and Mississippi Golf Club in support of their junior golf programs. It is amazing living in a small community where everyone is there to help

DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com All of Lanark County is now under a burn ban. Essentially, if it's an open flame, and it's outside, it's bad. Snuff it out, or, better yet, don't set it in the first place. "As of last night (Tuesday) around 5 p.m., the whole county of Lanark has a complete ban," said Pascal Meunier, the chief of the Ocean Wave Fire Company in Carleton Place, on Wednesday, July 11. "It's been a dry and warm season. There is no rain in the long range forecast." While he said he has no idea as yet how long the ban would last, even if there was a sudden storm to appear, "we would need three or four days of constant rain before lifting this ban." Meunier said that the county was reacting in the same way that neighbouring municipalities like Ottawa were. The ban means

While this tranquil photo was taken last fall, on the shores of Lower Beverley Lake, long before the county-wide burn ban was put in place late on July 10, open air fires like this are now completely banned anywhere in Lanark County. that camp fires are completely banned, as are any open air burning. However, propane barbecues are fine, as are propane fire pits. The chief added that residents seeking additional information can contact their local fire depart-
ments. While there was a fire in Lanark Highlands Township this afternoon, and a structure fire earlier this week in Mississippi Mills did start "spot fires" around the house, "we've been extremely lucky," in Carleton Place, Meunier said.

Over in Perth, "we've noticed an increase in burning complaints," said Perth fire chief Trevor Choffe. "It's a recipe for disaster to have any sparks around." Just this past weekend, his department investigated complaints about fireworks being set off. Even smokers need to be wary. "Don't just flick it out the window," said Choffe, urging smokers to properly dispose of their butts instead. The Town of Perth also has a water advisory in effect, "asking residents to not water their lawn or wash their cars." Perth launched its fire ban on Tuesday afternoon as well, though "some parts of the county went sooner," like Lanark Highlands, which posted its warning on Monday. "Every municipality is a little different." For example, "Perth used to not allow any burns," but now burning can be done with a permit and other restrictions.

'Frustrated' postal workers may have to strike: Union CHRIS SIMON chris.simon@simcoe.com There's a chance your snail mail may slow to a crawl soon. Canadian Union of Postal Workers national president Mike Palecek called negotiations with Canada Post "frustrating" July 13, and warned residents the postal service is forcing his bargaining units to seriously contemplate strike action. About 50,000 postal workers have been without a collective agreement since the winter. The sides have met to discuss a new deal more than 100 times. However, the union is setting a final strike vote for Sept. 9. "This round of bargaining is likely going to define the postal service going forward for a generation," Palecek said in an interview. "We're putting all kinds of issues on the bargaining table that
are not just for ourselves but the public as well. Postal workers have done absolutely everything in their power to address these without a labour dispute. We campaigned, we organized town hall meetings, we changed the government. Still, nothing has happened. We're on to our last resort: a strike. That's where Canada Post is driving us." Canada Post "set us on to this path" through an "absolute refusal" to negotiate, he said. Philipe Legault, a spokesperson for Canada Post, said a mediator was brought into the collective bargaining process in late 2017. However, the postal service will not comment on specific aspects of negotiations. "Canada Post negotiators are working hard to find common ground with CUPW and believe a quick resolution is in the
best interest of customers and employees," he said in an email. A number of issues built up over the last few years because the previous Conservative government refused to negotiate with the union, Palecek said. About 8,000 of the employees work in a rural or suburban setting, with the majority being women. They are paid about 30 per cent less than their 42,000 urbanarea counterparts. The union is also pushing for the establishment of a Canada Post bank, electrification of the postal service's 13,000-vehicle fleet, and installation of electric vehicle-charging stations at post offices across the country. "This is an opportunity to bring in new services that will not only bring in revenue but that the public actually needs," Palecek said.

OPINION
Time's running out
With just over a week remaining to file papers for this fall's municipal and school board elections, time is running out for candidates looking to be on the ballot. The deadline is July 27 at 2 p.m., which has been shortened by 120 days from the previous campaign period of Jan. 1 to the second Friday in September. These changes, along with a requirement for each candidate to collect 25 signatures from residents in municipalities with a population of more than 4,000 before filing their papers, were made in 2018 in an effort for the election process to be more transparent. Since the campaign period began on May 1, our local municipalities have seen quite a few candidates file their papers to run for their respective councils, including many newcomers. It's always encouraging to see new faces make the decision to sit on council and school boards and affect change at the local level. We need that mix of experience and new faces to infuse fresh ideas and a creative outlook on how to solve problems. Often it can be a thankless job with long hours, low pay and much criticism, but it can also be enriching. Having a say in writing your municipality's history is rewarding and making tough decisions on the future growth and development of an area isn't something to be taken lightly. It isn't always about cutting the ribbon at business openings or presenting awards, but determining whether things such as large scale developments, pesticide spraying on roadways or the revitalization of a downtown core are the right fit for a community. It's not an easy task; we know because we see those representatives debating around the table each week while covering council sessions. We witness the spirited, sometimes heated discussions as council members try to come to a consensus on a contentious issue. We will always need people to step up and take on these roles and applaud all of those who continue to serve their communities, both past and present. Municipal elections have always been an exciting time for our newspapers and we look forward to profiling the candidates in each of our areas to provide readers with some food for thought as they prepare to head to the polls Oct. 22.

• LETTERS & COMMENTARY • Scalpers score big with Premier Ford DEAR EDITOR: Upon recent inauguration as the new Progressive Conservative Premier of Ontario, Doug Ford has promised to lead the first ever true Government of the People. His first enacted policies upon power however have not served the broad mass of the people of Ontario so much as a fraction or even a sliver of the people. One example that has escaped much attention is the premier's suspension of anti-scalping regulations installed by the previous Liberal government. Scalping is a market manipulation whereby online programs are used to masspurchase tickets for big sporting or concert events. After buying out tickets at
mass-speed and thereby monopolizing them, scalpers then resell tickets at severely inflated prices at the expense of the consumer. In response to this practice, the now-suspended provisions of the Ticket Sales Act had prohibited tickets from being resold at above 50 per cent of their original value. (Last year the Green party of Ontario adopted anti-scalping policies as well.) The Progressive Conservatives had previously alleged that this law was not reasonably enforceable. But they betrayed their lack of self-confidence by hiding the decision from the public until it was announced by the bureaucracy. One would think that "the People" would be more likely to be the Ontarians hoping to buy affordable

hockey games tickets, as opposed to the obscure profiteers of cyber scamming. But unless the Progressive Conservatives pledge to bring in a new tougher anti-scalping law, it seems that those wanting to see who will score big at the hockey games may instead see big scores against their wallets - thanks to Premier Ford. Stefan Klietsch, Renfrew
Scrapping sex ed is irresponsible, says reader DEAR EDITOR: I am writing regarding the Ontario progressive Conservative government's decision to abolish the current sex ed program, rolling back to a program devel-
oped 20 years ago. While in principle I support the notion of re-examining any curriculum, it is with the notion of moving forward. The Ford government says inadequate parent consultation went into the previous program. Fair enough, I support the notion of more parental consultation, but I also support evidence-based research, which is quite unambiguous this matter; good information leads to fewer teen pregnancies and a lowered rate of STD infections. Flag the curriculum for review, with a balance of evidence and parental opinion, but do NOT revert to an outdated curriculum that leaves our children without the information to make good choices and stay safe!

Model could provide long-term solution To move forward, this idea will require tens of thousands of dollars to run. "We would need to hire a co-ordinator," said Somppi, cautioning that the model's template may not directly translate to Lanark Coun-
Political reaction Open Doors is on board, and points out that Planet Youth "is a long-term project rather than a long-term solution," said Clouthier.
Rather than changing people, "you're going to change the culture," in order to have long-term change, he said. "The data is clear," Clouthier said. "The price tag ... in my estimation, (it is) reasonable." Montague Township Reeve Bill Dobson wondered if Planet Youth could talk to Tweed, the medical marijuana factory in Smiths Falls. "Yes, they are promoting medical marijuana," said
Dobson, but they could help with committee finances. He pointed out that the LCBO finances antidrunk driving programs. "Is there an ethical question in that?" asked Somppi. "How would the community react to this." Tay Valley Township Deputy Reeve Brian Campbell said that with marijuana being legalized this October, challenges to "reduce the use of cannabis will be greater."

Somppi and Clouthier stressed "parental involvement is absolutely critical." They said parents should where they are at any given time, who their friends are, as well as their friend's parents. "In Iceland, the parents got together and said we will commit to each other," said Somppi. "They signed contracts with each other," in order to help build a community. "They went out and did walks," in an effort to "know where our kids are at 10 p.m." Here in Lanark County,

The "Icelandic Model," was introduced at a meeting of the Lanark County and Town of Smiths Falls Municipal Drug Strategy Network's quarterly meeting back in February. The network's steering committee voted to approve a "community-based prevention model," according to Somppi, to be called Planet Youth Lanark. The formal terms of reference were adopted last month, shortly after Kevin Clouthier, executive director of Open Doors for Lanark Children and Youth, and Brenda MacDonaldRowe, attended a workshop on the model in the Icelandic capital of Reykjavik. Planet Youth aims to "dramatically decrease use of alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, and other drugs by youth," said Somppi. Planet Youth committees would be set up alongside Municipal Drug Strategy committees. "Lanark County is, we believe, the right size to do this," said Somppi, adding that the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit are also on board. He said it is also "designed around the catchment areas of high schools." While stressing that "there is no silver bullet," on these issues, "there is really something here," said Somppi.

Some summer travel deficiencies to consider
Jeff Maguire writes about highway deficiencies in Ontario We are smack in the middle of the summer vacation and travel season and if you need confirmation of that just take to the roads anywhere in our province this
week. The main highways are bumper to bumper and secondary routes are far busier than usual. I know from whence I speak, because two weekends ago my wife and I, along with my sister Linda Parisien from Stittsville, attended a celebration of life for the husband of a first cousin of ours in Haliburton. In recent years Kathleen and I

oPen HouSe Sun July 22nd 2-4 PM
have also visited the beautiful Haliburton Highlands region to attend happier family occasions. I have another first cousin we are close to who lives just outside Haliburton. I have familiarized myself with the district and when it came to our journey two weekends ago I was well versed on how to get there. I considered two routes. But concerned with weekend traffic on busy Highway 7 we settled on a more rural passage through places including Renfrew, Dacre, Denbigh, Hardwood Lake, McArthur's Mills and Bancroft. We passed through Tory Hill where my late father Howard spent much of his childhood. My Dad was born in the nearby hamlet of Harcourt and most of his surviving family still live in the Haliburton area or neighbouring Kawartha Lakes. The communities I've referred to are familiar stops along the Central Ontario summer tourist trail. It didn't take us very long to encounter the deficiencies that exist along our highways and byways these days. For one thing, where do you find a public washroom? Unless you go into a roadside restaurant and use their toilets, without intending to purchase anything, those kinds of facilities are few
JEFF MAGUIRE Column and far between. Admittedly there are some community parks with toilets. But on a long trip who has time to scout them out? When you do run across such a place the facilities are most often of the portable variety and cleanliness (or lack of it) is a big issue. The day after the family gathering the three of us toured some once familiar places in that region of the province where we encountered an identical issue. However I do commend communities such as Bobcaygeon (we have family there too) who can boast excellent, clean, and easy to find public washrooms. Another problem for visitors who are unfamiliar with any part of Ontario is just simple stopping places. Washrooms aside, where do you find good picnic places or even a pull-in spot to stop your vehicle and consult your GPS, road
map or use a cellphone? As for GPS and road maps you will definitely need them if you get off the 400 series of highways. Because road signs are often confusing, difficult to see or totally non-existent. Our province used to have an excellent series of roadside parks. There are a few still out there but usually only along the busiest routes. On secondary roads they are really scarce. Clearly there are exceptions but despite the obvious need to find cost savings in Ontario we should be doing a better job hosting visitors. Closing roadside parks and failing to provide adequate public rest stops is false economy in my estimation. It can't help but damage our tourist trade, especially with the neighbouring USA. Somehow the powers that be, the provincial government and local municipalities, need to get together and find ways to better serve visitors to Ontario, not to mention our own population. Surely we can do better? – Jeff Maguire is a career journalist who lives in Carleton Place, Ont. He has been writing for community and daily newspapers in Ontario since 1971.

New child advocacy centre will support Lanark County LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com Open Doors for Lanark Children and Youth, in partnership with Family & Children's Services of Lanark, Leeds and Grenville, The Lanark OPP, Lanark County Situation Table, Victim Services Lanark County, Lanark County Interval House and Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital announce a plan to open a child advocacy centre in Lanark County. The centre will address the needs of local children, youth and families in cases of abuse. This project began in December of 2017 with the submission of a proposal to
the Department of Justice Canada for funding to develop and pilot a child advocacy centre in Lanark County. The application was based on a needs and feasibility study conducted by the partnership to support the growing number of area victimizations being reported to county agencies. When the centre opens, it will provide single-site multidisciplinary services including co-ordinating referrals to services such as mental health, safety planning, housing, domestic violence intervention and transportation. The child advocacy centre is a multi-year project.
The location of the physical site has yet to be determined. It will operate virtually until such time as a host community has been established. This initiative also dovetails well with two child and youth mental health priorities that were highlighted through recent community consultation for Moving on Mental Health, the Ontario child and youth mental health transformation process. Specifically, this project will address the expressed desire for improved accessibility to service when the need is present, plus the benefit of enhanced co-ordination of service between community part-
ners delivering service with children, youth and families. "We look forward to working together with our partners to ensure positive outcomes for our children and families in crisis. Through enhanced communication and integration of services it should be possible to provide more timely and effective interventions and support for those who need it. We are grateful to be able to implement this model in Lanark County," said Terri Brady, past chair. While research in Canada is still in the early stages, the federal Department of Justice highlights some of the positive impacts of
this service delivery model. Some of these community benefits include cost-effective and expedited criminal investigations, increased child, youth and family focused care, and improved communication and co-ordination between community resources. "Our government is unwavering in its commitment to ensure that all victims of crime are treated with the respect and dignity they deserve. Child and youth victims of crime and their families need information, services and supports to begin their healing journey. Investing in child advocacy centres, such as this one in Lanark County, will
address gaps in services to these vulnerable groups and will help fulfil our government's commitment to create a criminal justice system that protects the vulnerable and builds a safer and better Canada," said The Honourable Jody Wilson-Raybould, P.C., Q.C., M.P. Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada. The Lanark County Child Advocacy Centre will provide an integrated, seamless and collaborative approach to addressing the needs of children and youth who are victims of sexual violence, assault, and physical abuse countywide. – submitted by Open Doors

When George Bernard Shaw wrote Mrs. Warren's Profession - a comedic classic opening July 20 at the Classic Theatre Festival in Perth - it took him eight years before he was able to arrange a private staging of the play, and an additional 20 years before it was first publicly performed in London. The play caused a worldwide stir, from being banned in England to getting shut down in New Haven and New York City. The show's first performers, producers and director were subject to arrest warrants because the authorities considered the play too dangerous for public eyes.
This remarkable story of the gradual reveal of a family secret - the source of Mrs. Warren's wealth - introduces some of the most memorable comic characters Shaw ever created, from the dastardly Crofts to the indecisive Rev. Gardner. When Warren's daughter Vivie begins to understand the secret, it sets up the stage for a classic mother-daughter row without parallel. While the sensibilities of an earlier time kept the play from public view, it remains incredibly timely and in tune with today's #MeToo moment, with Shaw writing that this is "a play for women; it was
written for women; it has been performed and produced mainly through the determination of women, and not one of these women had any inducement to support it except their belief in the timeliness and the power of the lesson the play teaches." Appearing in the play are some of Canada's most recognizable stage and screen performers. Catherine McNally (Mrs. Warren), recipient of the prestigious Christopher Plummer Award, is frequently seen on TV, including in The Handmaids Tale, Anne (Netflix), Schitts Creek, Cardinal, Charming Christmas and Mur-
doch Mysteries. Anna Burkholder, playing Vivie, is a festival favourite who returns from Montreal after stellar appearances here in An Inspector Calls and Candida. Also featured are performer/writer Douglas Hughes (a veteran of the Stratford and Shaw festivals), Nicholas Rice (frequently seen in this area at Thousand Islands Playhouse and St. Lawrence Shakespeare), Colin Legge (who regularly performs across Canada, the U.S. and U.K.), and Kyle Orzechs (who toured in My Mother's, Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding, the first musical by the team responsi-
ble for the current Broadway smash hit, Come From Away). Mrs. Warren's Profession, which opens July 20, is one of four shows playing during July at the Festival. Among them are two new historic theatrical walking plays. This year features family-friendly, hour-long tales of Perth during the turbulent war years of the 1940s. In the touching morning play, The Prisoner of Petawawa (Wed. to Sun. at 11 a.m.), the budding promise of young love runs into the reality of a battle-scarred soldier, while the discovery of a new town resident reveals an unsavoury part of Cana-
dian history. The Lonely Ghosts Walk (Thurs. & Fri at 7 p.m.) is a musical and comedic look at the challenges and tribulations faced by British war brides adjusting to a new life in rural Perth. Far From Home is a reminder of both the contributions made by - and the obstacles often put in the way of - successive generations of immigrants to Perth. Both walking plays begin at Matheson House Museum, 11 Gore St. E. Tickets to the festival are available at 1-877-2831283 or classictheatre.ca. – submitted by the Classic Theatre Festival

Dandelions had many useful purposes on the farm
Mother drew the line at Father's homemade wine though, Mary Cook recalls Mother said it would be a frosty day in July before she would consider dandelions anything but weeds. When she arrived on the farm in the backwoods of Renfrew County, after living 18 years in New York City, and Father, and even Aunt Bertha on the farm beside us, told her that dandelions were good to eat, she vowed they would never find a place on our dinner table. Well, all that changed when Father decided he was dying for a good feed of boiled dandelions smothered in fresh butter. Mother said she would cook them, but he wasn't to expect her to eat any of them. My sister Audrey and I were sent out to the yard with the dish pan where there were more weeds than grass, and she showed me how we were just to
MARY COOK Column take the leaves, and to try to take only those that were a good size. Well, with dandelions everywhere, it didn't take us long to fill the dishpan. Of course, Mother had to make sure that every last leaf was thoroughly washed, one by one. Then she wrapped them in a clean flour-bag tea towel, and squeezed the water out of them. That certainly cut down on the amount we would be having for supper. To be sure there would be at least one or two other vegetables on the table (as she said just in case no one but Father had a feed of the "weeds" as she called them), she cut up a head of cabbage and good number of carrots too.
That all happened before Mother found out just how tasty a good feed of dandelions can be. Sopping with butter and salt and pepper, it didn't take long for the bowl to disappear. Now, Father liked just plain meals ... nothing fancy for him. Meat, potatoes, gravy, vegetables and pie was a good feed as far as he was concerned. And even though he had talked about a meal of dandelions often, he certainly didn't expect Mother to put them on the dinner table every few days! To add a few extras, to give them what Mother called a 'lift,' went over like a lead balloon. Mother added sour cream one day, and another time she put lemon juice on them. Father took one mouthful and headed for the back door to get rid of what was in his mouth. So it was plain dandelions ever after. Of course, the weed served another purpose as well. Father
made dandelion wine, and we all stayed clear when he was in the middle of that job, let me tell you! All I knew was he didn't wash the leaves first, which was enough to turn Mother off at the outset. And he didn't want any help either, so I never did learn exactly how it was made. When he had used up the few empty liquor bottles that once held what Uncle Herby had brought from Montreal, he poured it into KIK bottles, which he hoarded when we were lucky enough to have a bottle of pop from Briscoe's General Store. Mother wouldn't touch it knowing that the weeds came directly from the yard and right into the brew without the benefit of a drop of water. Father tried to assure her that once the brew turned into wine, all germs would be long gone, but that did little to sway Mother. Then there was the joy I got when my sister Audrey and I
would sit out on the grass, and Audrey would take a stem of the dandelion ... the longer the better, and she would gently divide the stem in two, and each stem would be rolled down into a tight curl. They served absolutely no earthly purpose, but it was the joy of spending time alone with my much older sister, something we could do together. And I would sit with amazement that there was yet another use for the simple dandelion that grew in such great abundance in our very own backyard. Interested in an electronic version of Mary's books?

Orange Lodges from near and far assembled in Carleton Place on Thursday, July 12 to celebrate the 328th anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne - marking the victory of Protestant King William of Orange over Catholic King James II at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. Festivities, held at the Neelin Street Community Centre (arena), included a service of worship, roast beef dinner, parade and dance. Deputy Mayor Jerry Flynn brought greetings from the town. The Orange Order is a Protestant organization based predominantly in Northern Ireland and Scotland, though it has lodges throughout Canada and the United States. Owing to membership decline, Carleton Place's Orange Lodge (No. 48) folded in 2015 after celebrating its 185th anniversary. Many years ago, the lodge boasted 50-plus members. Roughly 2,000 people participated in the local Orangemen's Day parade and another 2,000 lined the streets to watch.

LAWS seeks homes for cats dumped at shelter When you are out and about please stop by Pet Valu stores in Almonte and Carleton Place as well as Natural Pets in Carleton Place. There are Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS) kittens and cats available for adoption there, too.
Featured pets Hello we're Breezy, Buck and Bauer. We were dumped at LAWS with Brody our eldest brother. Our previous owner just stuffed us in a tote-box each and left us, overnight, in front of the door at LAWS. Can you believe people doing that? It was a very scary experience for us. They didn't leave a message with our names, ages and other history. They
didn't send any money to spend on food or medical care with us either. We're very upset as we didn't deserve this nor is this something you do to a shelter who relies on donations to pay the bills. It's called abandonment. However they're on top of things here as there are cameras all over the property. We are really good, healthy cats except Brody who needed expensive dental work. He was in a lot of pain. The staff at LAWS decided he was worth it to spend lots of money on getting him feeling better. They're so nice here, they feed us, have sent us to the vet for medical check-up as well as being neutered. We are now ready to find our true forever home(s). Until
someone adopts us we're enjoying the daily cuddles and hugs and kisses we receive at LAWS. Brody already found a new home and has texted happy tail messages to us. We're a bit envious but also confident that we'll find a home too. We're very friendly, wellbehaved, affectionate, playful, and laid-back cats who LOVE people and as an added bonus we're all very handsome. Please meet us at LAWS. Hi my name is Momma 1 and I am as sweet as I am beautiful and I can't wait to meet my new best friend! I am living with other cats at the shelter since October last year. I think a quiet home with a regular routine where I can quickly get in

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

OPP unveil safe trade zone in Carleton Place TARA GESNER tgesner@metroland.com Carleton Place now has a designated area for online buyers and sellers to meet. The local detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police introduced Project Safe Trade on July 5. Participating in the launch: OPP Sgt. Rob Croth, OPP Const. Paul Ross, and the town's recreation and culture manager, Joanne Henderson. Project Safe Trade is a community safe zone for completing internet transactions - away from secluded parking lots or other areas they occur, including private homes. Located directly in front of the Carleton Place OPP detachment, at 15 Coleman St., the marked, well-lit area provides the public with a location to ensure their safety and discourage dishonest persons. "Where the presence of law enforcement may deter unlawful behaviour," Ross stated. "The bad guys are not going to come to the police station to do deals." Croth stressed the town has partnered on the initiative. The local police services board and Ocean Wave Fire Company have also offered support. Coun. Theresa Fritz chairs Carleton Place's police services board. She told the Canadian Gazette: "I think this is a wonderful
initiative. With so much commerce done online and through buy-and-sell sites, it is nice to know our residents will have a safe and secure location to conduct these kinds of transactions. Community safety is everyone's responsibility, and I applaud the OPP for taking the initiative on Project Safe Trade." Henderson noted the town is always willing to get involved: "Anything we can do to partner with community initiatives." "This provides a safe environment for people to exchange property," Croth said. "It is a very busy area." He highlighted an incident in the Hamilton area from five years ago. A man met two guys to sell a truck and ended up being murdered. Websites such as Kijiji, eBay, VarageSale and Craigslist are being used more and more. "Just look at Facebook, Ross stated. "Buy-and-sell pages are everywhere, with some having 20,000-plus members." "Even when you are using our location, take a trusted friend or family member with you as a witness," Croth said. "Bring a cellphone, and make sure you let people know where you are going." Keep transactions to daylight hours, and "in the event of an emergency, contact the police," l See ZONE, page 6

Tea in the Garden fundraiser in Clayton a 'blooming' success The forecast on June 23 was dismal! Rain, rain and more rain. But the sun chased the clouds away and the rain held off for what turned out to be a perfect few hours. More than 130 women and girls attended the Tea in the Garden fundraiser, enjoying tea and fabulous homemade sandwiches and sweets in the beauti-
ful setting of Jane Henderson's park-like gardens in Clayton. Many attendees wore garden hats, and for those who didn't there were fascinators for loan. Lots of "oohs" and "aahs" ensued, memories made and photos taken at the photo station. The Hub Hospice Palliative Care (HHPC)
lies and caregivers in North Lanark. HHPC cannot operate without the generous support of the community. St. George's Anglican Church in Clayton sponsored the tea. The HHPC board thanks all of the people who helped make this event so successful. HHPC is a not-for-prof-
it registered Canadian charity funded through donations and targeted fundraising initiatives. It provides in-home palliative care support for adult clients and their families (personal residences, long-term care homes, retirement homes or hospitals) in North Lanark.

laWN WateriNg restrictioNs The Public Works and By-law Enforcement Departments are kindly requesting that residents reduce outdoor water consumption until further notice. The lack of precipitation has resulted in a substantial increase on demand for water from our water treatment plant (double the usual amount). It is vital that residents strictly adhere to the Lawn Watering By-law (By-law 19-2002) to ensure that the water tower has enough reserve for normal operations and to provide fire protection services for the community. Should the current water use levels remain, the Town will have to consider further restrictions. The By-law Department will be increasing enforcement on those who are in violation. The fine for violating the by-law is $55.00. By-law 19-2002 regulates the consumption and use of water from May 1st to September 30th. The following regulations apply: •
No person using the Town of Carleton Place water supply system shall water from more than one connection
•
Residents occupying an even-numbered address may water on even-numbered calendar days only
•
Residents occupying an odd-numbered address may water on odd-numbered calendar days only

At the start of May, the Rotary Club of Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills (RCCPMM) held its annual compost sale at the usual location - the former Olde Barracks on Highway 29. Once again, support from the community was very good, resulting in brisk sales. Three youth teams from the Carleton Place Soccer Club (CPSC) helped with the bagging of the compost, plus delivery by their parents and other volunteers. As a result, the CPSC received a donation from the RCCPMM of approximately $3,600, which will help with future club activities. The RCCPMM thanks its past, new and continuing customers who support the service organization by purchasing compost. We hope to see you again next year on around the same date. The compost sale will take place again in 2019 around the same date. Other upcoming RCCPMM fundraisers: a 50/50 draw at the Bridge St. Summer Fest in August, as well as the Just Because rose sale near the end of October. All proceeds go toward community-oriented projects. Chartered in 2002, the RCCPMM is actively involved in a number of activities within the community. Since its inception, it has donated over $150,000 for projects and assistance within the communities of Carleton Place, Mississippi Mills and Beckwith. For more information, please

he added. For additional safety, never erase emails, texts or voice mails between yourself and the seller or buyer. More and more, police departments are introducing safe trade sites. Smiths Falls police launched its Safe Internet Exchange Zone last March, following in the footsteps of Brockville and Cornwall. People using Carleton Place's safe trade site are advised that the OPP does not assume any responsibility for any transactions or monitor or mediate the
use of the premises. Police will only become involved in an occurrence involving a criminal offence. Common frauds and prevention tips OPP are warning residents to be on the alert for scams, reducing the potential of property or personal victimization. In the first half of 2018, from Jan. 1 to June 30, 123 frauds were reported to Lanark County OPP, resulting in a loss of $661,085.35. According to Ross, the breakdown is as follows: insurance fraud, $293,896.74; employee and
business fraud, $187,000; buy-and-sell fraud, $81,346; credit card fraud, $34,553.15; online deceit, $25,700.24; identity theft, $13,596.92; grandparent/ emergency scam, $10,537; Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) scam, $6,500; cheque theft, $4,755.30; and romance fraud, $3,200. Vigilance is the No. 1 defence against scam artists. "I am amazed by the number of people who still get taken by the CRA scam," Ross said. A victim is contacted by phone or email by a person claiming to be either a police officer or a member of
the CRA. The scammer suggests there is an outstanding balance owed and unless the person pays it immediately he or she will be arrested. "Police do not collect taxes!" Ross exclaimed. "The CRA does not threaten citizens." Moreover, he noted, "The Canadian government does not ask for iTunes cards as payment." Another popular scam is the announcement of lottery or prize winnings, which require individuals to pay taxes or fees in advance to receive the money or gift.
"If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is," Croth said. One more fraud sees appeals for emergency financial assistance by someone claiming to be a relative who is in trouble. "This is often referred to as the grandparent scam," Ross said. Another con is an offer to remove viruses from a computer, which is a way for tricksters to gain access to the owner's personal data such as credit card numbers, email, etc. "This is all about awareness and keeping the community safe," Croth said.
Scammers are imaginative and manipulative, and they use high-pressure tactics. Fraud affects people of all ages; however, seniors are considered easy prey, Ross noted. Seniors have disposable income, they can be reached during the day, they often live by themselves, and in most cases they are lonely, making them vulnerable to very convincing scam artists. The bottom line is not to give out any personal or financial information over email or the telephone, or in person, Croth stressed.
AGM Highlights — Moving Moving Forward Forward T Together ogether CPDMH’s 63rd Annual General Meeting was held on June 27th, providing an opportunity to reflect on the past year and look to the future. “One of a Board’s most important functions is to set the strategic direction,” noted outgoing Board Chair Terry Cairns. “During the past year, we have worked with Almonte General Hospital to approve a joint strategic plan. It speaks to our collective aspirations to provide excellent care for patients, work with partners to support access to care, empower our care teams. We want to leverage the potential of our Mississippi River Health Alliance for the benefit of the communities we serve.” The exciting news continues to be the planning for the new Emergency Department. CPDMH is close to completing stage two of a five-stage process. But there is much more going on at CPDMH. Here are just a few highlights: •
•
Eight new cardiac monitors and six telemetry units are ensuring safer care. They allow for ongoing bedside and central monitoring. Thank you to the CPDMH Foundation and their generous donors for their overwhelming support. The Telemedicine program has a new clinical system which provides better images when connecting patients to specialists in another facility.
•
•
Major Major building building iimprovements mprovements iinclude nclude a n new ew b boiler, oiler, fire detection system, phone system (including a nurse call system) and windows. Exterior lighting has also been updated. Thank you to the Ministry of Health for this additional funding. Happy 65th Anniversary to the CPDMH Auxiliary and thank you for all that you do – every day. There are 102 volunteers at CPDMH and they donated more than 10,400 hours of service this past year. They also donated thousands of dollars to purchase much-needed equipment.
For 2018/2019, Rob Clayton will serve as Board Chair and Carol-Anne Esnard becomes Vice-Chair. Three new Board members were also confirmed at the meeting. Watch for more details about the new Board in a future column.
A highlight of the AGM was a special presentation to Marcel Pinon upon completion of his nine-year term, including two years as Board Chair. Marcel was praised for his commitment to “always doing the right thing” for patients and CPDMH.
“Thank you to the community volunteers who sit on our Board of Directors,” summed up Mary Wilson Trider, President & CEO. “And thank you to our Patient and Family Advisory Committee for your valuable input. Together with our committed staff, physicians and volunteers, we are helping to ensure the best and safest care for our local communities.”
“This is a community here,” noted Marcel (pictured 2nd from right). “It has been a great challenge and I’m leaving here with a huge smile knowing what we’ve accomplished together.”

MISSISSIPPI MILLS
YARD OF THE WEEK
This week our Yard of the Week is in the village of Pakenham at 122 Dalkeith Street. It belongs to Darlene Bourne and Jim Pert. The garden was lovely this spring with lots of bulbs and a flowering crab. Now that summer has arrived, the garden is an oasis for birds and butterflies, with lots of peonies, hydrangea, hostas, along with a wonderful pond and waterfall. Darlene has lots of containers with annuals for colour (including a pot of herbs which was hosting two swallowtail caterpillars on the dill) and Jim has a lovely vegetable garden. They recently had to replace their septic system, and now an ecologically friendly garden is planted surrounding the system. A lilac hedge had to be removed and is now replaced with a great row of hydrangea.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The following letter to the editor is in response to an article in the Canadian Gazette on June 29 titled "Beer fridge to be removed from Carleton Place fire station mess hall." According to the Town of Carleton Place's chief administrative officer, Diane Smithson, the mess hall and fridge are still available for use by firefighters and only the alcoholic drinks have been removed. DEAR EDITOR: Members of the Ocean Wave Fire Company feel the article published on June 29 misrepresents the firefighters and their role in this. The mess hall was voluntarily closed by the firefighters on June 28 after direction from the former chief. We feel it is important for the public to understand why this existed. When we are called out, whether it is an accident, fire or medical, we would have a place to return to and openly discuss, with the firefighters on scene, what we experienced and how it affected us. As well, we discuss if there is something we could do better, things we did well, and to discuss some of the darker things we deal with. These conversations lead us to be a better and more effective team. The discussions and incidents affect each one of us in different ways, and we do not want to be in the public eye during these conversations. These discussions are not for the public to hear or participate in. This has been going on for a very long time with no issues.
The current rules surrounding the mess hall are, it is only open after fire calls, meetings and training. As well, there are no outside family or friends permitted in the mess hall as reported. As a volunteer department, there are no on-shift firefighters using the mess hall and then going out on the fire trucks to respond to a call. Alcohol is not sold, but there is a recommended donation in order to cover expenses. Any money above and beyond is donated into the community, going to the Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital Foundation, Camp Bucko or firefighters in Lanark County in need. The Ocean Wave Fire Company is a private members' association. Under the Liquor Licence Act, regulation 718, sec 3 subsec. 2. (2) An indoor place to which the public is not ordinarily invited or permitted is considered to be a private place except at the times when the public is invited or permitted access to it. R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 718, s. 3 (2). And Liquor Licence Act sec 31. (2) No person shall have or consume liquor in any place other than, (a) a residence; (b) premises in respect of which a licence or permit is issued; or (c) a private place as defined in the regulations. R.S.O. 1990, c. L. 19, s. 31 (2). Under these sections of the code, we are exempt from any licensing requirements. We are not open to the public and we are located in a secure facility where only members are permitted to enter the premises.
As for the legal opinion, we feel the information given to the lawyers was inaccurate and done so in order to close the mess hall. We would like to remind staff, council and the people of Carleton Place, the volunteer firefighters own businesses, work and have family and friends living in the community. Misrepresenting the facts, as was done in the most recent article regarding the fire department volunteers, has placed us in a position of negative views in the community. Many of us have been forced to defend ourselves to our customers, co-workers, employers, family and friends. Many of our members see this type of press and the questionable actions leading up to this situation as a sign of disrespect toward volunteers and the Ocean Wave Fire Company, in addition to the negative spin posted on social media regarding our membership. The volunteers swore an oath to protect the people of Carleton Place. We will be there for all of you, as needed, any time, in your time of need. Regards, Richard Jackson, Marty McKitrick, Bob Wilson, Liam Robertson, Dave Payne, Casey Gardner, Bill Katsoulis, Chris Fisher, Mike Williams, Brad Hewitt, Bob Hewitt, Cale Rowan, Matt Anderson, Mark Egan, Jason Jackson, Adam Bigras, Troy Hurdis, Brent Church, Greg MacIntosh, Scott Wilson and Al Johns

There was plenty of fun and laughter on this tea cup ride July 13 at the 160th edition of the Almonte Fair. Despite the blistering temperatures, families were out in full force to enjoy the annual agricultural fair.
Physiotherapy Care – Close to Home Area residents recovering from injuries - and those who want to maintain their mobility - have access to a complete range of physiotherapy services at the Almonte General Hospital. “Our physiotherapists provide preventative and therapeutic services aimed at restoring function and preventing disability arising from disease, trauma and injury,” explains Patti Morton, Director of Physiotherapy.
insideottawavalley.com
Recently AGH expanded the services offered at the outpatient physiotherapy clinic, known as AGH Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation Centre. “We are pleased to announce that Physiotherapist Crystal Higginson is now working full time. This has allowed us to expand our services for clients with private insurance or coverage through the Workplace Safety & Insurance Board (WSIB) or Department of Veterans Affairs,” notes Patti. “We are now able to accommodate these clients within a week, and sometimes the same day. We also continue to work on strategies to improve service and decrease wait time for our hospital-funded clients”. Crystal brings 11 years of strong orthopaedic physiotherapy experience with special interests in manual physiotherapy, vertigo and concussion management. She is one of six physiotherapists at the Centre who treat musculoskeletal

injuries such as sprains and tendonitis, post fracture, joint replacements, sports injuries, falls prevention, women’s health and workplace injuries. Assessments are 45 minutes and include the development of an individualized, goal-oriented treatment plan. Assistive devices program assessments are also available for walker prescriptions. Treatment techniques span a variety of manual therapies, exercise prescription, functional mobility training, kinesio taping, education, acupuncture, dry needling, and modalities such as ultrasound and electrotherapy. Post operative total hip/ knee replacement classes combine a supportive atmosphere with best practice interventions. The physiotherapy team also serves inpatients on the Medical Surgical Unit, clients in the Day Hospital, and residents in the Rosamond Unit and Fairview Manor. They provide contract services for the Ottawa Valley Family Health Team Telehealth Cardiac Rehabilitation Program and Orchard View Retirement Home.

TIFFANY LEPACK tlepack@metroland.com One of the Ottawa Valley's favourite hockey players got married last weekend and he kept it local. Former Ottawa Senator Marc Methot, now a defenceman for the Dallas Stars, was in the area for his big day. Marc and Ellie Methot were wed on Friday, July 6 at Evermore Weddings and Events in Almonte. Marc's parents Al and Betty Methot live near Renfrew, in Horton Township on the Ottawa River. Betty was happy the heat wave broke just in time for the wedding. "We managed to get a perfect day, not too hot," said the mother of the groom. "It was breezy and warm." Betty was very impressed with the location. "It was beautiful, they looked after everyone super and the food was wonderful," said Betty. "The couple just liked the setting - it is very pretty and is the old Naismith Farm." Betty said they had lots of family and friends there with approximately 160 people attending. "They are very happy and excited to start married life," said Betty. "It was nice to be there because they had a civil wedding in Dallas in October. Now we got to celebrate the ceremony and have dinner with them but it just went so

This past New Year's Eve, her youngest son got married. She praised both Marc and Ellie. "They were gorgeous and Ellie looked beautiful, she was stunning," said Betty. The couple's sevenmonth-old son Jack was also there. "He was in a tux. He's our first grandson and he's such a cutie." Evermore is located at 4960 County Rd. 29 in Almonte and Rob Scribner, who partners with the wed-
ding and events venue for the food from his restaurant Salt Dining Lounge, says this was not their first celebrity type wedding. "It was a great honour for our team at Evermore to host Ellie and Marc, they are a wonderful family," said "We are very thankful they chose us." He says their staff takes pride in whoever they serve but admits they were a little star-struck at the guest list. "There would have been a pretty good hockey team and I wouldn't want to play shinny against them," said Scribner. "We had fun and they were all so classy."

Canoe club remains the oldest club in Canada l Continued from page 1
is welcome to come out and watch." Spectators will watch canoes, kayaks and even the 15-person war canoes racing along the river. The regatta begins at 8 a.m. and runs until 5 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday. Races on July 21 are for U9-U15 athletes, with July 22 being for U16-adults. "Festivities on Saturday include food and refreshments (canteen style), a variety of vendors, dunk tank, face painting, bouncy castle, live music on the Cavanagh stage and so much more," Redwood said. "We are still looking for people to get in the dunk tank ... anyone in the community with a target on his or her back," she added with a laugh. "Anyone who wants to come out and help raise money for our new war canoe." Last November, the town was asked by the CPCC to kick off the $30,000 fundraising campaign with a donation. Carleton Place gave $3,000 and Beckwith donated $1,000. "We have not had a new war canoe since the early '80s," Redwood said. "With it being our 125th anniversary this year, it was time." The war canoe is seen as a prestige event at any regatta. "We purchased the new war canoe already, and we will be paying it off in installments," Redwood stated. "We are halfway there." The canoe was purchased from
Bear Mountain Boats in Westport. On Saturday, during the lunch hour, there will be a big surprise for regatta attendees. "In front of the canoe club at 12:30 p.m.," Redwood teased.
Alumni breakfast An alumni breakfast, sponsored by Waterside Retirement Community, will be held on Saturday from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the clubhouse hall. "We have enough sponsorship to cover 75 people, which is quite significant for us," Redwood said. During the breakfast, area, talented musician Cashmen Ford will perform, and "we are also honouring our lifetime achievement winners," the commodore added. "These awards are handed out every five years. Past winners include the late David Findlay, Gary Mousseau, Graham Barton, Art Quartermain, Andrew Willows and Ryan Cuthbert, just to name a few. "We have different categories for our inductees: builder, official, coach and athlete," Redwood noted. Findlay, the first Carleton Place Citizen of the Year in 1974, was honoured previously as a builder, helping to bring the CPCC to where it is now. "Art Quartermain was a CPCC official for many years," Redwood said, and "he ended up being a nationallyranked official." "It is not just about what you are doing at the club, but how you are re-
presenting our community outside our community ... in a way that reflects the values of the town and sport," she continued. Barton is a former head coach of the CPCC. Today, he is Canoe Kayak Canada's chief technical officer. The CPCC has again and again produced athletes who qualify for competition at the highest levels: provincial, national and international. "If you are going to the Olympics, you are putting the club and Carleton Place on the map," Redwood said. The CPCC is hosting a celebration party following the regatta in the main building. The Commodore's Bash on Saturday night runs from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. Tickets cost $25 each. The theme is Red and White. "This is a licensed event with finger foods," Redwood said. "There is a silent auction and live music by the amazing group StarFire." Carleton Place has a strong canoe and kayak family. With great programs and great coaches, "we are at capacity in a majority of our programs," Redwood noted. Getting emotional, "This weekend is an opportunity for members of the community to come out and celebrate their canoe club," she said. CPCC members built the new clubhouse in 1983. Pat Lester is the head coach of the CPCC. For more information about the CPCC, located at 179 John St., visit www.cpcanoeclub.com or email info@cpcanoeclub.com.

On behalf of Neil McDougall and Geneva Donaldson we would like to thank the community, business, friends and family who came together to help support this local family. Never did we expect all the support we have received and continue to receive with donations and kind words. Good people like you are god’s reminder that there are angels that walk this earth. Thank you for the kindness and generosity you have shown our family, we will never forget it. Sincerely The McDougall’s, Donaldson’s and Blaney’s
The family of Tony Ilan would like to thank family and friends who attended Tony’s wake and to all who attended the Celebration of Life for Tony, hosted by Rob Roy’s Pub; the turnout and the love and support we felt was overwhelming. Thank you also to the many people who sent food, cards, flowers, donations to SMA Canada and offered condolences and support to the family. We especially wish to thank Stephen Blair and the Staff at Blair & Son Funeral Home for their great care and comfort of our family throughout such a difficult time. Thank you to the pallbearers; and to the family and friends who delivered Eulogies at the funeral service. Thank you to Staff and Friends at Rob Roy’s, the Paramedics and the Doctors and Nurses at the Smiths Falls Emergency Department who all worked so tirelessly to try to save Tony’s life. Although Tony struggled all his life with a Congenital Heart Defect, with many heart surgeries; he always managed to pull through so he could continue to taunt, tease and torture his many Doctors, Nurses, and his family. After everything he overcame; now gone too soon, Tony passed away suddenly at the age of 47. He touched so many people’s lives and will be sadly missed by all who knew him. In Memory of Tony Ilan July 19, 1970 - May 30, 2018

BROWN, ELLEN MONICA (nee Mortell)
Ellen was known to her friends as EILEEN, to distinguish her from her mother, Ellen (nee Wall). Ellen died peacefully at the Great War Memorial Hospital on Friday, July 6, 2018, in her 85th year. She was married for more than 55 years to her loving husband, Maurice Brown. Ellen was predeceased by her beloved daughter, Deirdre. She was preceded in death by her sisters, Mary, Bridgit, Noreen, and by her brothers, John, Eric, and Michael. She was the devoted Mother of Colin (Paula) of Westport and special mother-in-law to Robert Sinclair of Ottawa. Ellen will be fondly remembered by her beloved grandchildren, Eric Brown, Cora and Neala Sinclair. Left to mourn her passing are Ellen’s brother, Thomas (Kathleen) Mortell of San Diego, CA, Sister-ln-Law Teresa, of Toronto, nephew, John of Finland, and nieces Barbara, Triona and Bernie of the USA. She will be fondly remembered by Sisters-In-Law, Barbara Brown of St. Catharines, On, Margaret Brown of Magherafelt, Northern Ireland, Brother-InLaw, Alan (Heather) Brown of Antrim, Northern Ireland and the many members of the Brown families in Northern Ireland. Mrs. Brown was born in Limerick, Ireland on May 4th, 1934. She successfully completed her years of education in Dublin, Ireland. Ellen graduated as a Registered Nurse from Hospitals in Dublin and obtained her midwifery certification at The Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She emigrated to Canada in 1960. Wedding bells rang as she married the love of her life, Maurice, in 1962. By the mid 60’s, Ellen Monica devoted herself to the raising of their two children as she put her career on hold. Though as the children grew, Ellen committed herself to worthwhile initiatives such as serving as a Councilor of Lanark Highlands for over a 12-year term and acting as the principal moving force for the development of The North Lanark Community Health Centre. She was a faithful member of the congregation at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Lanark. To honour her wishes, cremation has taken place. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Saturday, July 21, 2018, at 11:00 am at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Lanark. Interment will follow at Sacred Heart Cemetery. Family and friends are invited to attend a luncheon reception at Foy Hall afterward to share memories and stories of Ellen’s lifetime. For those wishing, donations in Ellen’s memory can be made to the Great War Memorial Hospital in Perth, Ontario. Ellen’s funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the care of the O’Dacre Family Funeral Home, Ltd., Perth, Ontario.
Hart, Peter
May 20, 1944 - July 9, 2018 It is with broken hearts that we announce the sudden death of Peter at the Carleton Place Hospital after a short but courageous battle with a very aggressive cancer. He was wrapped in love and support by his family as he made his final journey. Missing him forever is his best friend, wife of 37 years and soul mate Jane. He was the cherished and much loved father of Jessica, Shawn (Kristen) and Colin (Kami). Proud Grandpa of Alyssa and Alex Hart, Cassius and Evie Rose, Avery Hart and her soon to be sibling. Loving brother of Mary-Lynn Tyers, Wendy (Paul Dunn) and Paul (Rina). Dear son-in-law of Roy and Irene Turton, and crazy brother-in-law to their 6 other children and spouses. An avid golfer, he played many rounds at the Mississippi where he had been a long time member. Maybe now he will get that hole-in-one! Peter was known as the Research King, especially amongst his breakfast club buds. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. Special thanks to Dr. Rob Courchene, the nurses and staff at the Carleton Place Hospital who were always there for him. Cremation has taken place. At Peter’s request, there will be no service. For those who wish, a donation to the Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital would be appreciated by the family. He was a good man, a kind and gentle soul.

HEALEY, Ray Raymond Francis Healey, of Smiths Falls passed away very peacefully at his home on Friday, July 13th, 2018 at the age of 97. Born on February 10, 1921 on Connaught Hill, Toledo, Ontario to John William Healey and the former Mary Mildred (Mame) Yates.He grew up on the family farm at Connaught Hill, near Toledo and was educated at Mitchell School and Athens High School. Ray worked on the family farm until he was 18 years old. He was instrumental in having hydro installed at the farm, and was one of the first farms to receive it. Ray and his first wife Donna Burns, worked tirelessly along with Monsignor O’Hearn and many families to see the first Catholic School (St. Joseph’s), in Toledo come to fruition. Ray was the inaugural and proud chairman of the school. He was an active member of the Elvin Lockwood’s Orchestra for some 20 years or more. He played the saxophone, fiddle, and piano in the musical group and entertained at many dances and marriages throughout the former Lanark, Leeds & Grenville counties. In the following years Ray turned his attention to working at a cheese factory for five years in Plum Hollow. In addition, Ray and his first wife Donna ran a mail route in Toledo for 15 years. Ray commenced transporting children to school in 1945. He remained in the bus business for over 40 years. It was 25 years ago one of Ray’s sons, Frank began working at the business alongside Ray and today there are over 100 school buses, safely transporting children to and from school. On October 24, 1984, Ray was selected as “Business Man of the Year” for his outstanding achievement in business, a great personal contribution to the community. All at the same time he acted as Hydro Commissioner in Smiths Falls for 14 straight years. He is a proud Past President of the Smiths Falls Rotary Club for over 30 years, and was highlighted by becoming a Paul Harris Fellow, on December 18, 1992, in recognition of his long and faithful service to the Rotary Club and the community. Needless to say, he was a high achiever, gaining a sense of well-being from many successes. Donna, Ray’s first wife passed away in 1981. He re-married in 1985 to Margery (Marge), and has been married for 33 years. Ray leaves a great legacy to his wife Margery and his family of 7, Greg (Mary-Ann), Frank (Kate), Mark (Brenda), Jerome, Mary Louise (Hendrick), Mike (Kara), and Pat. He cherished his 21 grandchildren and 6 greatgrandchildren, along with his only surviving sister Catherine. He is predeceased by his siblings, Phillip Joseph, Bill, Bern, Blaze, Yates, Neil, Phillip Charles, Cecil, Madeline, Rose, Elaine, and Doris. Ray was a man of faith and very much aware of his humble roots, and so thankful for each and every day. He did not attribute his successes to himself, but always had a great perception of how he had been so blessed and guided throughout his life. Ray’s family would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Hendry, hospital staff, care partners, family and the community of Smiths Falls for being so supportive to Ray and his care. Friends paid their respects at the Blair & Son Funeral Home, Smiths Falls on Tuesday, July 17, 2018 from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated at St. Francis de Sales Church, Smiths Falls on Wednesday at 11 a.m. A reception followed the Mass at Hanley Hall, and interment will take place thereafter at St. Phillip Neri Cemetery in Toledo. If desired, memorial contributions may be made to the St. Francis de Sales Building Fund.
