It was believed Natsis would ad.CA dress reporters .CAfollowing Casey’s family, but instead she was whisked out a side door of the courthouse.

A dentist from Pembroke, Natsis was drunk when she left the Crazy Horse in Kanata on the fateful night of March 31, 2011. Ontario Court Justice Neil Kozloff said she must have known she had slammed into a vehicle in the parking lot before taking off for Highway 417.

Driving erratically and above the speed limit most of the way home, she crossed the westbound lane and slammed into Casey’s eastbound vehicle on Highway 17 on the outskirts of Arnprior. Although both were driving alone, and both had alcohol in their system – Natsis’ was nearly 2.5 times the legal limit – only Casey’s vehicle made any attempt to stop or avoid the collision. .CA

Moments after Dr. Christy Natsis was found guilty in the drunk-driv.COM ing death of Bryan Casey near Arn.COM prior more than three years ago – a case fumbled by OPP investigators – her family took time to thank the legal system and emergency workers.

“We are relieved justice is being served,” said Casey’s widow LeeEllen Carroll.

“We will never forget the front line responders, and the doctors that did everything they could.”

She went on to say she will never forget the look in her children’s eyes when they learned of their father’s death. Nor will the family forget the lengthy court case.

“The pain inflicted upon us and our families from the crash and the drawn out court case has left a huge impact on our family. It should not be experienced by others,” Carroll said.

Judge finds Natsis guilty of impaired driving causing death Continued from front

Casey suffered three broken bones and was bleeding profusely when taken to hospital, first in Arnprior than Ottawa.

The lengthy court case revealed sloppy work by area OPP, from the night of the incident through to the investigation that followed. All of it was carefully researched by Natsis’ lawyers, led by Michael Edelson.

Natsis, now 50 years old, may have had a strong defence team on her side, but Kozloff still found her guilty of impaired driving causing death and dangerous driving causing death. She faces up to 14 years in prison.

The case will be back in court June 10 when a date for sentencing will likely be set.

DECISION DAY

Kozloff took much of Friday, May 29 to read his verdict before the almost full courtroom. Natsis sat in the front row, at times clutching the hand of her husband and business partner Dr. Bruce Harle.

The judge named just under a dozen witnesses, including police, all of

whom testified they could smell alcohol near Natsis or saw her stumble or offer other signs of intoxication.

Some even said they believed she attempted to evade detection by walking away from police or lingering near areas of the scene.

The one exception was Dr. Joseph Caytak in the emergency department at Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital who, when she was brought in from the ambulance, said she appeared normal. He even asked during the 15-minute examination if she had been drinking. She said no.

When he saw Casey, however, with massive blood loss and broken bones, it was a different story.

“He was a man who was dying in front of my eyes,” Caytak told the judge.

Kozloff detailed the “sloppiness” of investigators, specifically Const.

Shawn Kelly, who believed key skid marks were actually made hours or days before the collision. Const.

Robert Kern was chastised for drawing conclusions to a report before all the data was entered.

The collision scene debris and rate of speeds also caused contradictions with the OPP.

Derek Dunn/Metroland

Bryan Casey’s father, Gus, and his widow LeeEllen Carroll address reporters outside the Ottawa courthouse May 29. After a lengthy high-profile case that saw Pembroke dentist Dr. Christy Natsis found guilty on two driving charges causing death, the family said justice was served and took time to thank first responders.

Const. Drew Dunfield was first on scene but grew “flabbergasted” when Const. Ryan Besner arrived to arrest Natsis without even consulting with him.

Natsis lawyers highlighted many of the missteps along the way, especially the move to limit her time and privacy while speaking to her lawyer that night. They claimed her charter rights were violated.

Despite the “communication

breakdowns,” the judge used common sense and physical evidence – such as the pre-crash vehicle module data - to reveal that Natsis was to blame for the collision.

“The degree of care was a marked departure from the standard of care that a reasonable person would have done in similar circumstances,” Kozloff said.

He dismissed Natsis’ claim on scene that, “He was in my lane.”

“I am not convinced he was ever in her lane,” he said.

It is unknown if she will appeal the ruling. Her lawyers are asking that the sentencing take place in Pembroke, likely in early August.

A conviction of impaired driving causing death and dangerous driving causing death carries a maximum sentence of 14 years in prison. Natsis will be sentenced as a first time offender.

ADHS fights cancer with a Relay for Life Scott Campbell

“Cancer is not fair,” says Arnprior District High School student Michael Clarke.

Clarke and more than 100 ADHS students participated in a Relay for Life May 29 to help fight the disease.

It’s been four years since Arnprior District High School has held a Relay for Life, but it could become an annual event at the school. The relay tends to go overnight, but this time ADHS students held theirs from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. - and they couldn’t have asked Mother Nature for better weather.

“This is just for the school,” said student Megan McGrath. It’s about the good-will

to loved ones, community and everyone in Canada who is fighting cancer.”

The relay was opened to the whole school, but they had to sign up,” explained Clarke.

The goal was to raise $15,000. “Our school made approximately $12, 000,” said .CA teacher Laura Carter. “Given that we had about 130 students participating, our school did well.”

ADHS student Conor Hogan spoke of his battle with leukemia, which was the discovered three weeks into Grade 11.

“It sucked,” he said. “There were several months of chemo therapy. I was a high-risk case because the cancer was not normal at my age.

brockville kingston REGION

The biggest positive influence was seeing my parents every day. That was because this school raised money so my parents could have gas money to stay with me.”

Plenty of events were planned for the 12 hours to keep the students entertained.

There was a lip sync battle, scavenger hunt and a coffee house. There were also luminaries lit once dusk arrived.

“It was a very committed dedicated group of students,” said Carter. “They worked together to make it all possible.”

ADHS was also very appreciative of the following businesses for their contributions: Drs. Tony & Christina Veale Family Dentistry, Prior Engagements, No Frills, Giant Tiger and Metro.

Andrew Penner, left, Gail Atwill and John Gruno are overseeing a $5million renewal at Arnprior’s hospital.

Derek Dunn/Metroland

ARH to raise parking fees to help fund renewal projects

REPLACEMENT ITEMS

John Gruno, building and environmental services manager, said ARH will enjoy savings through energy efficiency.

“We don’t know yet what the longterm cost savings will be,” Gruno said. “Right now the boilers are running at 60 to 65 per cent efficiency.

The new ones will be in the 90 to 95 per cent range.”

The mechanical gas and vacuum system was upgraded during the $10million Emergency Room project, done just a few years ago. Now some electrical panels are being replaced.

Asked if a fundraising initiative is part of the planning, Atwill said she doubts the community would contribute to replacing things like boilers. MRI units and other bedside equipment capture the imagination, AD but behind-the-scenes equipment is not something ARH PROOF is considering.

“Partners in Caring has not been FORM asked to participate,” said Wendy Knechtel, manager of fund development.

Andrew Penner of Stantec Consulting was brought in for infrastructure analysis. He said workers in the boiler room and elsewhere have done a fine job repairing equipment that in some cases is functioning 20 to 30 years beyond their lifespan.

“There has been some really good maintenance work done here, but some of the equipment is past their lifecycle,” Penner said. “They’re in good shape but it’s not reasonable to think it can continue for 40 years or more.”

Dr. Corrine Motluk Dr. Alan Franzmann Hence the five-year facility renewal plan.

“We need to make sure it stays safe,” Atwill added.

At the top of the list, physically speaking, is the roof. It leaks. Crews are already up there to replace a section of the membrane and gravel at a cost of $108,000.

Annual General Meeting & 40th Anniversary

Tickets are $25 / person and can be purchased from Mitchell Rueckwald at the L’Arche Arnprior office.

R0013306660

A multi-million dollar renewal process means Arnprior’s hospital will have to double the parking rates as of this summer.

Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital faces over $5 million in needed infrastructure. New boilers, temperate control system, and more are well past their expected lifespan. To pay for it, Arnprior Regional Health (ARH) will get some funding from the province, but it will also bump the cost of parking from $2 to $4 as of Aug. 1.

The parking fees should raise $100,000 a year in predictable revenue, and according to chief financial officer Gale Atwill, the money will go exclusively toward facility renewal projects.

“It will only be used for facility renewal,” Atwill said. “It’s too bad we’ve had to come to this decision, but the ministry isn’t funding the entire renewal.”

The Ministry of Health has recognized the need in Arnprior. Through its hospital infrastructure renewal fund (HIRF), $199,000 will go toward the upgrades this year. Compare that with just $86,000 last year, and zero dollars the previous two.

Another source of funding could be the Local Health Integration Network (LHIN). It is unknown how much will be contributed from the regional administrator.

Along with the bump to one-time users, the public’s monthly pass goes from $20 to $40; employee and tenant passes go from $20 to $25. Nocharge drop-off areas will continue to be offered.

“We surveyed other hospitals in the region and came up with a reasonable rate using our existing parking equipment,” Atwill said.

Almonte’s is still free (as of June 1), but Carleton Place, Renfrew, Perth and Smiths Falls all charge between $3 and $5. Ottawa hospitals charge a daily rate of about $15.

Patrick Garbutt said higher levels of government should be contributing more. The admitting desk employee and president of CUPE local

2198 said the bump in parking fees is reasonable, but essential equipment such as boilers shouldn’t be funded by area residents.

“Why aren’t the provincial and federal governments paying for this,” Garbutt said. “The Liberal government has frozen us for five years. The feds are not renewing the health care strategy. And Arnprior is growing faster than the national average.”

He said hospital administrators are doing what they must do, not what they want to do. But in the quest to cut costs, the union has grown suspicious that jobs are sacrificed too quickly; share budget details and explain why retirees are back at the hospital, are two requests.

Natsis decision a welcome one

O

ne of the most telling aspects of the long-running Christy Natsis trial was that so many people were resigned to the accused getting off on all charges.

The fact that she was found guilty of the serious charges of impaired driving causing death and dangerous driving causing death was surprising to many who had been following the case through its interminable threeyear, 55-day course.

It’s hard to blame them. It wouldn’t have been the first time an influential accused got off thanks to the efforts of high priced lawyers.

When it comes to the federal government’s tough on crime push, it’s been working by putting more people in prison.

But those heading to prison tend to be society’s poor and vulnerable. If you have the wherewithal to afford high profile lawyers who know every trick in the book, not so much.

Just look at the percentage of the prison population of aboriginal descent. It’s pushing 25 per cent, yet aboriginals make up just four per cent of Canada’s population.

So it’s obvious we have still have a major problem with our justice system. Equal justice

for all is still a hallow promise.

But sometimes it works. There could be an appeal, of course, as Natsis has never shown any remorse or compunction to take responsibility for her actions. But it appears justice has been served for Bryan Casey’s widow, children and father.

So why did the Natsis decision pleasantly surprise so many people who thought she’d get off?

It shows that despite the weaknesses in the system, individual people can make a difference. While crucial evidence was thrown out because of technicalities and charter right violations, the testimony by witnesses was enough to overcome all the weaknesses in the crown’s case.

And most important of all, Ontario Court Justice Neil Kozloff calmly took in all the case’s twists and turns and distilled it into a decision marked by common sense and fair play.

In the end, there are no winners here. A husband and father is dead and a woman may very well go to jail. But, justice was done and that is a victory.

LETTER

Neighbourhood was dismayed, not glad to see trees downed To the Editor: Letter in response to ‘Arthur Street Trees’, Chronicle-Guide May 28, page 4.

Derek Dunn’s article in last week’s paper about the ‘Arthur Street trees’ is an unfortunate “he said, she said� story, and that is certainly not his fault.

There are a lot of implausable comments by McEwan in Derek’s story that are so far from reality it borders on the ridiculous.

As the “she� having actually witnessed everything next door, I would like folks to know the in-

convenient version of events.

Call me old-fashioned, but I believe there’s a way to treat people and there’s a way to do things. Both should involve basic respect.

Within that respect is honesty and consideration.

ing them down with their shovel, as a taxpayer and the property owner only a few feet away, I grabbed my camera and started taping. After all the trees were down, the shovel then drove onto the property and started swinging these massive trees around and dropping them inches from our fence.

One of the workers from Antrim Contracting actually confronted me about videotaping the event. Any homeowner in my place would’ve done the same I’m sure.

That evening a neighbour told me how McEwan went door-to-door that morning informing folks about the trees coming down that day. He never came to our door despite our residence being most affected.

The Town makes McEwen plant trees on his new builds; he doesn’t do it of his own generosity.

And regarding comments in the article, “The road would have been ripped up causing disruption to the neighbourhood.� Have you driven down Arthur Street lately? “People on the street clapped when they came down.� I can completely refute that as having recorded the event there was no applause. Where does he get off making such bogus statements?

He admits birds may have been nesting in the trees. There’s nothing to admit, birds were nesting in the trees, migratory birds.

The felled trees are still on the ground nearly three weeks later and those birds, now dead and ground into the earth by heavy equipment, could have fledged and been gone since nothing else has happened on this property to date.

Sick cat refused treatment in town pay up front, too bad.

One told me they would treat the cat but keep the cat until I pay up. Hold the cat hostage.

(6,900 hectares) of significant ecological land.

Gillies Grove was identified for protection because it sheltered oldgrowth forest features and habitat for red-shouldered hawk, then a species at risk.

Now, years later, the province’s investment has produced a surprise dividend - protection of Ontario’s tallest example of eastern white pine, which is also our provincial tree.

NCC is proud of the joint legacy of protected lands resulting from our long-standing relationship with MNRF. We look forward to continuing to work in partnership with the province in the years ahead.

Mother bird flew from falling tree Continued from Page 8

I actually witnessed one mother bird fly from her nest only when the tree she was in had fallen to a 45-degree angle and she had to fly away to save her own life.

He is spending $25,000 providing a necessary service to our neighbourhood. That is likely the quote Gardiner’s gave him on May 11 when they were at the property looking at the trees. Too much money, so instead, he had the road crew (mentioned previously) push the trees down.

Since then he has had two of his workers attempt at chipping the trees over a couple of days “Spruce is almost a weed.”

“A strong wind could bring them

down.”

“They were near the end of their life-span.”

Norway Spruce is not only known for its longevity and ability to withstand strong winds (160+ kph) but is specifically used as a wind-break to protect properties. The trees in question were not near the end of that longevity, they were in his way.

“The rest of the street was glad to get rid of them.” Not a chance; I live here and that’s not what I’m hearing.

I may be the homeowner against the property developer, but I’ll not keep quiet when he expects fellow residents to believe his fairy tales.

And that’s what they are.

To the Editor: Re: Towering Arnprior white pine is Ontario’s tallest tree (ChronicleGuide, May 28).

People love trees! We are amazed by the interest generated by your story about our discovery of Ontario’s tallest tree - a white pine found at the Nature Conservancy of Canada’s (NCC’s) Gillies Grove Reserve in Arnprior.

However, one important element of the story has been missed. The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) contributed significantly to the protection of Gillies Grove back in 2001, under a decades-long partnership with NCC called the Greenlands Program.

That partnership between the Government of Ontario and NCC helped secure and protect 17,000 acres

Beware: it’s the season for turtles to be on the move

By the time you read this column the 2015-16 Budget will have passed. The Liberal Government, with its majority, will have ensured that is has. Aside from the fact that the Budget continues to point us in the direction of unsustainable debt, I will speak about one particular section in this column: that is, Schedule Nine dealing with the sale of Hydro One. Schedule Nine deals with amendments to the Electricity Act including Hydro One and its subsidiaries. We have made it clear (right from the start) to the Government that their proposals for Hydro One were being done in all the wrong ways for all the wrong reasons. It is clear that the Liberals want to do this in a way that guts the provincial assets and allows them to spend the proceeds in any way they see fit. Their plan for selling Hydro One is not based on a belief that selling it would make it more efficient, but simply because they are desperate for money. The Liberals are willing to sell off any assets if there is a market for it.

In Question Period I have asked the Government to remove all aspects of the sale of Hydro One from the Budget Bill because I believe their fire sale plan is not in the best interests of Ontarians. With the Government showing no flexibility, we proposed amendments to the Budget—hoping that they would be accepted. While they would not have solved the issue, they would have made it better for Ontario’s citizens.

Our amendments would have ensured that: one, the Government would have to retain at least 51% ownership; two, that the Government would have to put the proceeds of the sale towards paying down the electricity debt—which currently stands at 27 billion dollars; and three, that any sale would have had to be reviewed by the Auditor General and the Financial Accountability Officer. Sadly, the Liberals voted all the amendments down.

What has been made clear to us since the Budget was tabled is that the people of Ontario agree with us that the sale of Hydro One is not in their best interests and that they are opposed to the sale. It should be made clear that once the towers and transmission lines are sold we’ll never get them back; people have made it clear to me that that is not what they want to happen.

Disgruntled Hydro One customers gathered here on May 13th to voice their displeasure of the Government’s handling of the electricity sector and specifically the billing practices of Hydro One. While they are clearly unhappy with how the corporation is run—rushing to get rid of it is not the answer, making it run better is.

Making matter worse, with the passing of the Budget there is no Ombudsman oversight anymore. All the work that the Ombudsman’s office did to bring the problems to light will be buried. I don’t see how anyone can view that as a positive move. While the passing of the Budget does give the Government the ability to sell shares of Hydro One there is no plan of when or how it will happen. Please let us know how you feel so we can continue to hold their feet to the fire.

With Victoria Day officially marking the beginning of cottage and road trip season, more Canadians are embracing the great outdoors.

It’s not just humans that are getting out and about; many wildlife species are also on the move in search of prime nesting habitat to mate and breed.

This often requires crossing busy roads.

With June being the height of nesting season for turtles, ‘tis the time to learn about “our reptilian friends and what you can do to help them cross safely,” says the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC).

There are 14 species of turtles in Canada:, one snapping, one softshell, one mud or musk, six pond and marsh, one box, and four species of sea turtle.

25 years to puberty

Because turtles are longlived, it can take eight to 25 years (depending on species) to reach maturity and reproduce.

To that effect, the loss of one reproductive female can take a toll the species’ population, particularly ones at risk of extinction or extirpation (locally extinct but still exists elsewhere).

Besides the threat of road mortality, turtles are also vulnerable to habitat loss and predation.

It is estimated that less than one in 100 turtle eggs laid will hatch grow into an adult.

By conducting yearly inventories and tracking, scientists can keep a watchful eye on the species’ longterm population trends.

Tricia Stinnissen, a masters of science student at Trent University, recently completed a two-year roadkill research project on reptiles and amphibians in Ontario.

Her research, conducted in partnership with the NCC, identified “hot spots” and “hot moments”

at which turtle mortalities are highest.

As a result of her study, crossing signs have been erected at hot spots and exclusion fences were put in place in the areas in an attempt to safely divert reptiles and amphibians from crossing the road to culverts that run beneath busy roads.

Rules to remember

Jennifer McCarter, conservation co-ordinator with the NCC in Ontario and also a turtle enthusiast, is looking forward to another field season. She says simple acts of road safety can have huge impact.

Keep these rules of engagement in mind the next time you hit the road: Slow down in areas where water and wetlands are on both sides of the road.

Be extra alert when driving, especially in the morning, late afternoon and evening, in late May and June, to watch for turtles, snakes and amphibians.

Most turtles can be safely carried off roads with two hands on either sides of the turtles’ shell.

Use a flat object (such as a car mat or card board) to move snapping turtles.

Always carry or move turtles off roads in the direction they were heading (if moved off the road back to where they came from, they will likely try to cross again).

Never move turtles to what you think is more suitable habitat (including your home!); they have a home range and know where they are heading.

Contact your local wildlife rehabilitation centre upon encountering an injured turtle — turtles are resilient creatures that can survive injuries that look fatal.

My last day in Jasper National Park was very different than the previous 20 days.

Instead of searching for Moose in shady Lodgepole Pine/Subalpine Fir forests in the Maligne Lake area, I explored Whistlers Mountain. The alpine top of this mountain is accessed by a tramway that ascends nearly one kilometre to reach 2,276 metres (7,470 feet). From there, a 1.5-km trail meanders to the summit, another 200 metres higher in elevation.

The views from the top are spectacular, but I wasn’t there to enjoy the scenery. I was looking for birds that live in that rocky, windswept en-

The quilt is going to Jean and Jim Quinn, whose Osceola home was destroyed in a violent wind storm May 9. Showing off the quilt, from left, are quilt show organizing committee members Anne Cruickshank, Joyce Murray, Chris Gordon, Joanna Vlaming, Marilyn Erskine, Mary DeVries and Sue Hodgins.

Arnprior Cooperators holding CHEO telethon this weekend John Carter

john.carter@metroland.com

Arnprior and area residents are being encouraged again this year to support the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) telethon.

As usual, the Arnprior Cooperators office is taking the lead locally in promoting this weekend’s telethon.

Cooperators staff will be manning the phone line from 7 to 11 p.m. Saturday, June 6 and from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday, June 7 to take telethon pledges by phone from local residents.

Walk-in pledges are also welcome.

However, instead of its usual Sunday barbecue and fun activities at its Madawaska Boulevard office, Cooperators has partnered with Arnprior Giant Tiger to hold the event Saturday to promote awareness of and raises money for the telethon.

To take advantage of

increased traffic at Giant Tiger on Saturday’s the CHEO celebration has been moved to this Saturday, June 6 at the Giant Tiger parking lot.

It will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with CTV, which is airing the telethon, to make a visit about 1 p.m. to tape a segment about the generosity of Arnprior residents.

Suzanne How of Cooperators urges as many residents as possible, especially those families who have used CHEO, to drop by at 1 p.m. to help demonstrate how much Arnprior and area values the children’s hospital.

She hopes that the CTV visit one young area resident will get the chance to present $80 she raised with a lemonade stand.

“We’re so excited that we’ll finally get the chance to profile Arnprior on the show (telethon),” she said, noting Cooperators has been marshaling local support for the telethon for the

past 16 years.

“It will be great to be able to show what a wonderful town Arnprior is,” she added.

As usual, the CHEO Bear will attend the barbecue, as will Arnprior firefighters accompanied by Sparky the fire safety dog.

There will be a barbecue and musical entertainment, and Cooperators staff will have CHEO merchandise for sale. An appreciative How notes that all the burgers have been donated by the Fitzroy beef farmers group, well-known for their high qual-

ity local beef.

The CHEO telethon airs on Ottawa CTV from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday and 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday. This year’s theme is Be a SuperHERO for CHEO. Last year, a record $7.12 million was raised. “This colossus outpouring of support has already made a huge difference in the lives of the children, youth and families here at CHEO by helping to purchase specialized medical equipment, fund hospital programs and staff training, and by supporting the lifesaving research being done at the

CHEO Research Institute,” says the CHEO Foundation in a news release promoting the telethon.

“CHEO touches the lives of over 500,000 families times each year, and this is why the CHEO Telethon is such an important event for our region.”

The broadcast gives everyone an inside look at the children’s hospital with staff interviews and videos that illustrate the impact donations have and the “incredible care” CHEO provides to families in Ottawa and up the Ottawa Valley.

CHEO families will also let

viewers into their lives during videos that document their CHEO journey with their sick or injured child.

The telethon also pays tribute to many of generous supporters and event organizers, businesses and corporations who present cheques representing their effort and annual contributions to CHEO. “It’s reality TV that truly matters in a big way, and we hope you will Be a SuperHERO for CHEO and tune into CTV Ottawa on June 6 and 7,” concludes the foundation.

Elementary public school teachers expand work action Teachers angry at having some of their members forced back to work and at the lack of progress in negotiations have expanded their workto-rule campaign and threatened to take further action at the start of the next school year.

Elementary public school teachers across Ontario expanded the scope of their job action Monday.

Meanwhile, the high school teachers have, who were ordered back to work in three school districts last

week, have said they will seriously consider resuming the strike in September if no deal is reached.

In a news release, the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) blamed the move on the “obstinacy” of the Liberal government and Ontario Public School Boards (OPSB) in refusing to address “real issues during bargaining.”

The EFTO noted its collective agreements have been expired for nine months.

The accelerated job action has yet to directly affect student activities.

The additional ‘struck work’ is administrative in nature and is designed to have minimal impact on students, says the EFTO.

Emergency funding program helps with necessary home repairs The County of Renfrew will continue to make funds available to low-income homeowners who require minor home repairs that will allow for continued safe occupancy of their home.

The Emergency Minor Home Repair Assistance Program grant is available for eligible homeowners who are at risk of being homeless.

The assistance is provided in the form of a onetime grant up to the amount of $5,000.

If a project is approved, the money will be paid directly to the contractor.

The household income of the recipient must not exceed $60,000 and the market value of the home must be at or below $175,000. Par-

A single mother from Pembroke had a near miss with being homeless, but thanks to assistance from the Emergency Minor Home Repair Program she was able to remain in her home.

She was concerned about the safety of her and the children given the age and problems she had noticed with the home’s electrical system. “After an inspection of my home’s electrical system, I was given 30 days to fix the issues or I was going to have to move out. I didn’t know where the children and I were going to go,” she said.

“I am very, very grateful to the Renfrew County Housing Corporation for their help and in acting so quickly to make this happen so I

ticipants must plan to remain in their home for at least five years and must be able to confirm they have exhausted all other funding sources available for home repairs.

“We are very pleased with the impact that this program makes in the prevention of homelessness in our communities,” saif Debbie Robinson, chair of the Renfrew County Housing Corporation board of directors in a news release. “This funding provides assistance to ensure that homeowners in our community do not have to live in discomfort or less than ideal circumstances while they struggle to accumulate the funds necessary to complete the repairs,” said Warden Peter Emon.

Parliamentary levers used to expose the sponsorship scandal more than a decade ago are now considered “bureaucratic loopholes” by Cheryl Gallant.

The MP for Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke said in her May newsletter to constituents that only a Conservative government will prevent the return of the long-gun registry. Attempts by the opposition and watchdogs in the civil service to ensure all laws are followed during the dismantling of the registry, have been met with what the right-leaning National Post calls “the Harper Conservatives’ chronic misuse of power.”

But that’s not how Gallant sees it.

“This time law-abiding firearms owners are being attacked by a federal bureaucrat and the use of an administrative loophole by a gun registry supporter, to claim the RCMP have not acted lawfully administering the law, a charge they vigorously reject,” Gallant wrote.

It was the federal information commissioner, Suzanne Legault, who was promised months ago by the government that no records would be destroyed before legislation closing the gun registry had taken effect.

The RCMP went ahead and destroyed re-

cords at the same time they were being sought under access laws.

Now the Conservatives are retroactively exempting long gun registry data from access laws to cover up the paper trail. The exemption will be contained in the mammoth omnibus budget bill expected to be passed hurriedly in June, the last chance before next fall’s election.

It could be used in any of our further investigations.”

Many observers from across the political spectrum pointed to the likelihood that current and future scandals could be covered up and the chance of criminal charges quashed. They point to the one involving suspended Conservative Senator Mike Duffy as an example.

For his part, Prime PERILOUS PRECEDENT Minister Stephen Harper indicated that his party After the records were won a majority; his party destroyed, Legault recomwanted the gun registry mended criminal charges destroyed; the RCMP was be levelled against the CHERYL GALLANT simply following his parRCMP for its role in the ty’s demands. case.

Quilters’ Guild community-minded The Arnprior and District Quilters’ Guild hold meetings the fourth Wednesday of every month September to June.

At the meetings, members and visitors have the opportunity to learn new skills, be inspired by a show-and-tell, take part in challenges, borrow books, and enjoy guest speakers.

As well as all the regular activities, friendships and laughs Guild members experience, they also work on a number of charity projects.

At least one meeting a year is dedicated to making quilts for charity.

One of the latest is the donation of a large quilt members made to the Quinn family

who lost their home in the Osceola-Cobden area in a tornado-like freak wind burst May 9.

The quilters’ guild members have also donated quilts to the Phoenix Centre, a raffle quilt for the local SPCA, 10 quilts to Renfrew County Family and Children’s Services, and material and orphan blocks to Victoria Quilts, which provides comfort to those with cancer.

PREEMIE QUILTS

As well, the Arnprior Guild gives more than 100 preemie quilts to the Rich Little Special Care Nursery at the Ottawa Hospital.

“It warms our hearts each time we receive an email from a thankful mother,” notes the Guild.

NDP nominates Dan McCarthy to run federally in R-N-P “remarkable” performance of federal NDP leader Tom Mulcair.

He condemned the federal Conservatives for election fraud through voter misdirection, which was a factor in as many as 200 ridings, he said, adding Stephen Harper won government with DAN McCARTHY a “razor-thin” majority of 12,000 votes.

Martin criticized the government’s decision to raise the retirement age and gut environmental protection and human rights with a series

“This is a good time to be a New Democrat.”

Enthusiastic NDP supporters filled the seats in the Ottawa Room at Renfrew’s Best Western Inn and Conference Centre May 27 to nominate labour lawyer Dan McCarthy of Burnstown as the party’s candidate for Renfrew-NipissingPembroke in the Oct. 19 federal election.

McCarthy, who was raised in Winnipeg, ran unopposed for the nomination. He was endorsed by longtime friend, Winnipeg-Centre MP Pat Martin as “one of most honourable and decent and competent candidates I can remember.”

Martin was the guest speaker at the May 27 nomination event.

He spoke to the riding association for a much smaller audience in 2000, when the NDP had just 13 MPs. “Now we are 100 and we are the government in waiting,” he said.

“It’s a very good time to be a New Democrat,” said Martin. The party is buoyed by recent election polls, the NDP’s win in Alberta, and the

of unprecedented omnibus bills, on which the government allowed almost no time for debate.

McCarthy outlined several of his party’s priorities.

A NDP government would lower the retirement age to 65 again, raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour and introduce $15-a-day child care based on the Quebec model.

McCarthy has worked with the carpenters’ union for a number of years and before that was a teacher, said riding association president Brian Dougherty in his introduction. He lives in Burnstown with his wife Felicite Stairs and is an avid hockey player.

McCarthy criticized both the prime minister and Liberal leader Justin Trudeau for the recent passage of Bill C-51, which gives police sweeping new powers for “unwarranted intrusions of privacy.” Instead of reasoned debate, the Conservatives established it as a “yes or no” issue about security, said McCarthy.

“Trudeau s Liberals attempted to calculate the mood of Canadians and came out in support of the bill. As the details of Bill C-51 emerged and public sentiment shifted, the Liberal message shifted, ‘It s a flawed bill but we will support it anyway and change it later.’”

The bottom line, said McCarthy, is the Trudeau-led Liberals voted with the Harper Conservatives. “I prefer a measured and principled response,” said McCarthy.

After examining Bill C-51 the NDP “voted against it on the basis of vague wording, expanded powers without oversight and unwarranted intrusions of privacy among other reasons.”

The NDP has exposed the ironies of the Harper Conservatives, said McCarthy.

“The long-form census is an intrusion of my privacy, but some stranger reading all my emails without authorization is not an intrusion of my privacy.”

The Harper government, he said, “tells us repeatedly that unelected officials, judges, should not be trusted to uphold the law, the constitution and the Charter, but we should trust unelected officials, judges, to allow CSIS to break the law and trample Charter rights. As a lawyer I’m still scratching my head on that one.”

“The people of Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke deserve a voice that is measured and principled, that provides thoughtful analysis, that invites conversation - not the endless repetition of sound bytes and speaking points,” said McCarthy.

“Those of you who read Cheryl Gallant’s Communicator are familiar with yes and no questions, hardly inviting a thoughtful conversation to a complex issue,” said McCarthy.

“Yes national security is important, but we want to see the content before we comment on it,” said McCarthy.

He praised Mulcair’s experience and track record.

“There is a clear consensus that Mulcair has been a very effective leader of the Opposition.

He is ready for the next step – to govern Canada,” said McCarthy.

“When I look around this room, when I think of all the encouragement I have received from supporters who could not attend tonight and when I consider the number of spontaneous offers to assist in the campaign, I know that this is a good time to be a New Democrat and your candidate for Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke.”

Arnprior Fire Department launches annual home fire safety program It’s that time of year again.

Arnprior’s volunteer firefighters are launching the annual Home Fire and Life Safety Program as part of the department’s fire prevention and public education program.

The Home Fire and Life Safety Program promotes the installation and testing of smoke alarms and

educates the public in regards to the Ontario Fire Code requirements for smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in all homes. As well the program educates residents about the importance of preparing and practicing a home fire escape plan.

Throughout June, members of the Arnprior Fire Department will once

again be knocking on doors asking for co-operation in order to inspect and test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in homes. Firefighters will be dressed in Arnprior Fire Department uniforms and be carrying proper identification.

This year’s program is expected to reach 250 homes in the community

and while this service is provided by the Arnprior Fire Department, residents should not wait for a knock on their door to have their alarms tested.

The fire department stresses that it is every homeowner’s responsibility to ensure smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are in place where re-

quired and operating properly.

Test alarms every month and change batteries at least once a year or whenever the low-battery warning chirps. Do not remove the batteries for any other reason Any questions anyone may have regarding smoke alarms or the requirement of carbon monoxide alarms can be directed to the Arnprior Fire Department fire prevention office at 613623-4231.

For additional information, visit the Town of Arnprior website at www.arnprior.ca or the Ontario Fire Marshal’s website at www.ofm.gov.on.ca.

Young people doing the right thing may earn themselves some well-deserved recognition this summer.

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is proud to be continuing its partnership with Mac’s Convenience Stores across Ontario again this year for Operation Freeze 2015, a program that rewards children who demonstrate positive actions, positive behaviour and show acts of kindness toward others.

OPP officers will be keeping a watchful eye for young people carrying out good deeds in communities across the province; and when they catch someone in an act of kindness, the ‘thank you’ which they will receive is in the form of a free “ticket” for a “froster”.

Operation Freeze is a Positive Ticketing Program that provides opportunities for OPP officers to interact with young people while recognizing youth for doing good deeds.

Officers can use the coupons in a ‘positive’ way to establish a dialogue with children in their patrol area and build relationships that will last for years to come.

“The OPP is pleased to participate again this year in this highly successful initiative that recognizes youth for responsible and caring behaviour,” said OPP Inspector Robyn MacEachern, OPP Community Safety Services.

“Any opportunity we have to interact with young people is a good thing.

Engaging our business communities in support of youth programs also helps make our communities stronger.”

Student choir sings to silver finish at national finals Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

The Arnprior high school’s vocal group won silver at the recent national competitions held in Toronto.

Arnprior District High School’s choir has been invited to the competition six times over the last 20 years, reaching the silver category just three times and the bronze three times.

“To get silver or gold at the nationals is really good.”

Frank Pecora is the music teacher who oversees Red Velvet. He credits student leaders for the impressive standing.

“They had good internal leadership, especially Lydia Bastien and Maddie Neill,” Pecora said.

“There are quite a few leaders. We had exceptional sectional rehearsals. The students did everything.

“I’d be in my office, but it FRANK PECORA/SUBMITTED

The 2015 Arnprior District High School Red Velvet Choir is comprised of Charlie Armstrong, Kianna Backs, Lydia Bastien, Kelsey Brown, Mallory Brumm, Dia Campbell, Valentina Candelaria, Adrienne Cavers, Michael Clarke, Rebecca Cowal, Emily Croft, Jessica Erickson, Vanessa Farmer, Gwen Flegal, Jordyn Gibeault, Madelaine Gillan, Adam Hrkach, Paul Hrkach, Heidi Landon, Jenna Landriault, Braydon Massoud, Keanna Maves, Calli McLachlan, Danielle Nagy, Maddie Neill, Alyssa Perreault, Tessa Roberts, Courtenay Simmonds, Brynn Sumner and Connor Vine.

was all them.”

Some 7,000 students from across Canada participate in the annual event. It was held May 15 on the University of Toronto campus. The fledgling singers were provided invaluable experiences, attending workshops with professors and professionals in the field.

Students got to mix and mingle with faculty and industry people at the Royal Conservatory of Music. Meet-andgreets, Q-and-As, Pecora said the students got a clear sense of what it takes to make it in the music business.

“Toronto, of course, is the hotbed for music in Canada,” he said. “They saw others perform and got to know what it takes to be at that elite level, and they can count themselves among it. But now they know what the next steps look like.”

Connor Vine is a choir member who gets to take it even further.

The bass player scored a scholarship that sees him attending a week-long jazz camp.

Next year also looks promising for Red Velvet. Twentyfive of the 30 members are returning.

The group doesn’t do it on its own. Service groups contribute. Pecora thanked the Lions Club, Arnprior Community Choir and Arnprior Duplicate Bridge Club.

CONCERT JUNE 13

An upcoming concert called Velvet Blue Harmony in the Prior is set for 3 p.m., Saturday, June 13 at Grace St. Andrew’s United Church.

Bluesettes & Co. from All Saints High School in Kanata will join Harmonie Generation and Red Velvet for the performance, plus a workshop and rehearsal.

Fiery cross to help call the clans at Scottish Festival Rose Ann MacLaren

The Call of Fiery Cross will be made during the Friday evening (June 19) of the McNab Day’s Scottish Festival.

No, the fiery cross has nothing to do with the starting of the Ku Klux Klan in the United States in 1866. The history of the fiery cross goes back a lot farther than that in the highlands of Scotland.

The reason for ‘Crann Tara’ (fiery cross) was as simple as communication between clans.

However, the significance of the cross was urgent and not to be taken lightly.

Roman Catholicism was one of the first Christian religions to be associated with the Scottish clans. The Christian Cross became very symbolic in their lives and culture.

It came as no great surprise that the clans used the sign of the Cross to spell out danger.

The Scottish people were a people who enjoyed fighting among themselves for land, cattle or just about any reason. Violence could appear from nowhere and the clans had to be always prepared.

A successful attack on a clan could herald its very demise. Clan lands and cattle and sheep

constituted the principal source of wealth in those regions, so if this was taken away the people suffered greatly.

Each clan had its own meeting place and when the fiery cross was sent out, every man was expected to be there armed and ready for battle.

The method used to rouse the people was for two clansmen to leave with their respective fiery cross and, while shouting loudly the clan’s war cry, they gave the place and the time of the rendezvous.

As the runners tired, another would take his place (like a relay team). By changing the runners, huge amounts of ground could be covered in a short space of time. Using this method was very effective and successful for the clans.

If for whatever reason the call to arms went unheeded, then the consequences were dire.

Mothers and fathers would disown their sons.

Lovers separated because the man had failed to appear for his clan duty. They were looked upon as traitors to their people and unworthy of living on clan land. Usually they would be chased from the homeland, never to be allowed to return because they were cowards.

No excuse was accepted for not responding

to the summons; the call was absolute, imperative and urgent. The groom forsook his bride at the church door, the pall-bearers abandoned the funeral bier; wherever the Cross was met, you had to be there.

They even penned poetry to warn people of the importance of the call.

Come on out and answer the fiery cross call for all clans (families) at the Mudmen outdoor concert on Friday, June 19 at McNab Centre Park and have a fun time doing it.

Don’t forget to register your clan when you get there for your torch at the calling.

See you there for show time at 7:30 p.m.

CELTIC ROCK BAND

What are the Mudmen? The Mudmen are a Celtic Rock Band who inspire a party as soon as they hit the stage. Founded by The Campbell Brothers in 1998, the Mudmen have eight studio CDs and a legion of fans from young to old.

The Mudmen have met and performed for the Queen on Canada Day at Parliament Hill, and have been honoured to entertain and share the stage with numerous celebrities over the

years, including Eugene Levy, Martin Short, Paul Shaffer, William Shatner, The Guess Who and Gordon Lightfoot. Don Cherry and Ron MacLean have featured music by the Mudmen on Rock’em Sock’em tapes, Coach’s Corner and during the nationally televised making of the new CBC hockey anthem.

The Mudmen, who have performed more than 2,000 shows to date, are Robby Campbell, Sandy Campbell, Mario Bozza, Steve Gore, Anthony Albanese and Jeremy Burton.

Their love for music and performing is as strong as their off stage friendship.

For more information about the band, call 613-623-3614.

New era of Junior B hockey means end for some franchises Scott Campbell

scottcampbell@metroland.com

What was once the largest Junior B league in Canada is officially no more.

The Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League (EOJHL) history goes back to 1966 but it’s in for big changes next season.

The 22 EOJHL teams have been cut down to 16 with Shawville, Gatineau, Almonte, Gananoque, Akwesasne and Morrisburg not included in the newly formed Central Canada Hockey League Tier 2 (CCHL2).

This has left Arnprior, Renfrew, Perth, Clarence, Metcalfe, Ottawa, Ottawa West, Stittsville, Alexandria, Winchester, Athens, Casselman, Brockville, Westport, Char-Lan and Prescott to survive to play in the new league.

While kinks are being worked out, at this point the only significant change from the EOJHL is the reduction of teams and the creation of an “unbalanced and full interlocking schedule.”

“We will be playing every team in the league a minimum two times, which is a home and an away game,” explained Brent Sylvester, GM of the Renfrew Timberwolves. “Teams like Arnprior, Stittsville and Perth get played four times.”

Sylvester conceded that the one downside to the league will likely be the travel aspect.

Brockville is a bit of a trek from Renfrew as the team now sits in the same conference alongside Arnprior and the Timberwolves. Brockville only plays the Wolves twice because it will reduce costs for the teams, hence the use of the term “unbalanced” for the schedule.

The CCHL2 season is slated to be 44 games.

“I believe it’s a good move,” said Sylvester of junior hockey forming the new league.

“There’s variety for the fans. It will be a better product. In the long-term I believe it will stabilize a lot of the franchises and continue to push kids to the next level (Junior A hockey).”

Arnprior Packers GM and head coach Bill Griese is looking forward to the new league and a different vision for the future of the game locally. He hopes the change can perhaps give a jolt to the Arnprior hockey crowd.

“This has so much upside,” he said. “But some people don’t like change and that’s where the negativity is coming from.

“I’m really hoping it changes the attitude of the Arnprior fans. It’s been hard to get them out. It’s been difficult to find volunteers, so maybe this will trigger a better response.”

He believes playing against teams like West-

HOT

port and Athens will give more exposure to the league.

“For the most part the new league will look a lot like the old league, but the subtleties over the next few years will make a big difference,” said Griese. “We now can act as one league instead of four divisions (like in the EOJHL).”

Sylvester explained for the playoffs, that the top three finishers from each conference will move on to the post-season. There will also be four wildcard positions, which will be decided on the best point totals. This factor can mean as many as seven teams from one conference can make the playoffs.

“There has been a widely held belief that there were more Junior B teams based on the size of the branch than was ideal,” said Kevin Abrams, vice-president of junior hockey for Hockey Eastern Ontario (HEO) and commissioner of the CCHL. “Saskatchewan has the same number of registered players and 12 to 14 Junior B teams with 12 Junior A teams. This has been a common refrain, but there was no appetite to address it until this season.”

SHAWVILLE FRUSTRATED

While teams like Renfrew and Arnprior are seeing the positives to the change, it spells the end to franchises in Shawville and Gatineau, as they have been allowed to play within the

EOJHL for years. The Shawville arena can anticipate lost revenue, since the team took up a considerable amount of ice time and the spinoff will likely reach into the community.

The Gatineau Mustangs have officially folded and will be transformed into an AAA team that was bought out of Lachine. For the 2015-16 season, Gatineau players are expected to skate in places like Sherbrooke, Princeville, Longueil and Granby.

Shawville President Ryan Barber has been frustrated with the entire process.

“A widely held belief (of too many Junior B teams), based on what, who?” he asked. “I’ve never heard this in my four years. Not once from anyone.

“Who cares about Saskatchewan? How is that relevant? This is the only reason we are no longer a part of the league, their desire to have fewer teams. There hasn’t been one rule change that they implemented that would exclude us.”

One attempted explanation for the exclusion could be that teams like Shawville, Gatineau and Gananoque, have always required permission to play in the EOJHL. “(Shawville is) an out-of-branch team because we are a Hockey Quebec branch team,” said Barber. “Each year we seek permission from Hockey Quebec to allow us to play hockey in Eastern Ontario.

Losing team is not easy for Shawville Great season for Arnprior Wrestling Club “For 29 years, that’s how it worked and there’s been no problem. This year, Hockey Quebec said, ‘Sure you guys can go play there because Hockey Quebec doesn’t have the equivalent league for you to play in on this side. We don’t have a league. There’s no Junior B teams here in the Outaouais… go play hockey in Eastern Ontario’.”

Abrams noted that “permission is required from the outgoing and incoming branch as well as Hockey Canada. There is usually a vote held at the league AGM to accept or decline the out of branch teams. “This season there was a written declaration required by each branch team and the decision to decline the out-ofbranch teams was unanimous. There is no requirement of the teams to render a rationale for their decision.”

Overall with this year’s claim aside, the concept of voting is a mystery to Barber for the four years that he has been involved in the EOJHL league.

“Now, they are pretending they vote every year,” he said. “There’s never ever been a vote. Nobody has ever submitted a vote to Shawville.

“It was always been about getting permission from Quebec and that was never a roadblock. They were happy to have us, they wanted us, they wanted our money

and they wanted us part of the league to make it big and strong.”

The Shawville Pontiacs would have been celebrating 30 years as a team, but now they are no options to consider for playing time. Barber was researching possibilities of starting a new league with just Outaouais teams - probably Junior C hockey - but with Gatineau out of the picture, the likelihood has decreased considerably.

The chances are slim for a hockey team in Shawville to suit up this year.

For the idea of seeing more of other teams in the CCHL2, Barber understands a lower number does simplify matters.

Yet, he remembers doing just that when he played for Shawville in his junior days.

“We played Westport and Brockville,” he said. “I mean it’s easier for some of our Shawville players to go to play in Ottawa West than it is Shawville. We only played against Ottawa twice all season.”

A team like Arnprior matched up with Shawville six times.

Time will tell if the CCHL2 turns out to be a worthy change from the EOJHL. Barber knows Shawville is losing the battle, but the league decision has not been an easy one to agree with. “Once you lose something, it is very hard to get it back.”

The Arnprior Wrestling Club has had a very busy season this year with more tournaments and a bigger team on its roster than previous years.

With the season coming to a close with three tournaments, the club ended with some outstanding wins. Most importantly, the wrestlers showed dedication and sportsmanship throughout the year, which helped them accomplish these results.

In April, the club headed to Fredericton with two female wrestlers, Lily LaFont and Paulena Oattes, for the Cadet/Juvenile Canadian National Championship. There was some tough competition with wrestlers coming from all across Canada. Both girls wrestled hard, ending their season with Lily coming home with a silver medal in the Juvenile Division Then the club travelled to Milton with two bantam wrestlers, Jolie Brisco and Brian Sheeler, for the Ontario Youth Provincial Championship. Both had a competitive day with Jolie winning all of her matches, even though she came up against athletes who belong to the Ontario High Performance Team (Team Ontario). She dominated the weight class and came home with the gold medal and the title of the Ontario Provincial Champion. Brian was just off of the podium at fifth place.

Rounding out the end of the season, Jolie and Brian headed to Niagara Falls for the Canada East Youth Wrestling Festival. Both showed great performances throughout the weekend.

Brian wrestled his way to a bronze medal in a very tough weight class that had his last match scored at an impressive 18-19 victory with only four seconds left on the clock for his win. Jolie had another ex-

Jolie also took home the trophy for Overall Female Bantam Wrestler, which is voted on by all the coaches at the tournament from the provinces of Eastern Canada.

Throughout the summer the athletes will be doing fundraisers to help support the upcoming season, which will see some going back to Fredericton and others to Calgary for major championship meets along with their already busy tournament schedule.

On June 13, the club will be hosting a barbecue fundraiser for the team at the M&M Meat Shop in Arnprior.

Gold for Arnprior hoopsters The Arnprior Basketball Club (Valley Pride) has done it again.

After securing the gold medal in the Atom girls division of the Eastern Ontario Basketball Championships in March, the Bantam Girls followed suit with a gold medal of their own.

The Bantam Pride travelled to the ‘AA’ championships in Brockville on the weekend of April 10-12.

The team sported a perfect 4-0 record through round-robin play with victories over Nepean (2822), Cornwall (40-29), Naismith (34-33) and the host Brockville Blazers (31-24).

The gold medal game featured a rematch with the Nepean Blue Devils.

Outstanding play on both ends of the court resulted in a 39-27 win for the Pride to cap the season with another gold medal for the local club.

Coping with

Financial difficulties and debt stress can affect people from all walks of life. At Doyle Salewski, our professional credit counsellors can help you put your finances in order and achieve a debt-free future – all while treating you with respect, dignity and compassion.

Debt

A bi-weekly guide on how to manage debt

At Doyle Salewski, we help people just like you every day.

Q: I know I can file a bankruptcy with a Trustee but I don’t like that option. I’ve heard about a sort of consolidation Trustees can also help me file called a Consumer Proposal. What is that?

In Canada, individuals who find themselves in financial trouble and unable to repay their debts, the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act provides two options: filing a bankruptcy or a consumer proposal. Both must be filed with the help of a licensed Trustee. Today we will explain the consumer proposal option.

In short, a consumer proposal is a formal and legally binding agreement—a contract—that you make with your creditors. You agree to pay them back part, and in some cases 100%, of what you owe them. Interest charges stop when the proposal is filed, and instead of juggling payments to several creditors each month, you make only one monthly payment to your Trustee. The Trustee in turn pays out the funds to your creditors in accordance with the consumer proposal terms.

For most people, the main benefits of a consumer proposal are that they are able to manage a single monthly payment within their budget and that creditors and collection agencies stop harassing them. Reducing debt stress is another key benefit that will have a positive effect on your mood, relationships and ability to focus at work and sleep at night. Once your proposal is paid out, you are completely debt free except for perhaps a mortgage and car loan if you have decided to keep your home and vehicle.

Because a consumer proposal falls under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, it must be administered by a licensed Trustee. No one else is authorized (despite what

certain radio advertisements might tell you) to file a proposal on your behalf—and nothing less than a properly filed consumer proposal will stop your creditors from collecting. Be aware and be careful, and don’t be afraid to ask questions! A licensed Trustee will help you prepare a budget and will be more than happy to discuss all options available to you.

As for the proposal itself, terms will vary depending on your circumstances.

Your Trustee will work with you to negotiate a reasonable arrangement with your creditors, taking into account your age, income, living expenses, family responsibilities, and whatever other details are relevant. This means your consumer proposal will be specifically tailored to fit your specific situation. All information shared with the Trustee remains confidential.

In our next column, we’ll look at some of the requirements for filing a proposal to see whether it might be an option for you. In the meantime, if you feel your financial situation is critical, contact us now for a free consultation. At Doyle Salewski, we’re here to help.

If you are burdened with debt stress, asking for sound advice is a sign of strength and the smart thing to do. Asking sooner rather than later is always better. Call Doyle Salewski today for your free, no obligation consultation. You’ll be glad you did.

Cody Mousseau. one of several champion Canadian rodeo riders who will compete in the first-ever Arnprior Stampede June 13-14, comes by the title of all-round cowboy honestly.

The 24-year-old from Alymer is last year’s world champion in two events – steer wrestling and team roping. He was also in the running for tops in tie-down roping.

For his successes, he was named International Federation of Rodeo’s all-round cowboy for 2014.

In the steer wrestling competitions, he had tough opposition from Brian Barefoot, Brad Stewart and Justin Thigpen.

It came down to the last steer in the fourth round with only $400 separating Mousseau and Stewart for the gold buckle.

Mousseau edged out Jacob Dagenhart of Statesville, North Carolina for the 2014 world champion team roping header title.

He qualified in the number two seat in the tie-down roping behind Thigpen of Waycross, Georgia. Mousseau roped solidly in the rounds and finished third in the average but was not able to best Thigpen who added his sixth gold buckle to his collection.

In addition to his two world championships, Mousseau earned the IFR All-Around title as well. “To win the allaround at the finals was awesome,” he said.

Immediately following his North American exploits, Mousseau traveled to Australia to rodeo for three months before hitting the IPRA trail again.

The Arnprior Stampede will feature a full weekend of events at the Arnprior Fairgrounds, starting with a kick-off party Friday evening. The main rodeos run 5-8 Saturday and 2-5 Sunday.

ADHS wins another Eastern Ontario rugby title Staff

KEITH SCHARF/SUBMITTED

Arnprior District High School’s Shauna McNulty breaks away to score the championship winning try with two minutes left to give ADHS a heart-stopping 15-10 win over their Kingston area opponents.

Chalk up another Eastern Ontario rugby championship for Arnprior District High School’s girls.

The Redmen captured the AAA EOSSAA girls rugby championship with a thrilling 15-10 victory over defending champions Regiopolis Notre Dame of Kingston on Tuesday.

It marks the fourth time in the past seven years ADHS has captured an Eastern Ontario girls rugby title and advanced to the Ontario championships (OFSAA).

The team played in the girls to OFSAA AAA/AAAA championship in Mississauga Monday through Wednesday this week (past press deadline). ADHS was ranked fourth in the 16-team tournament, an impressive feat for the small-town school.

In the EOSSAA title game, ADHS, coached by Glenn Wallace, took a threepoint lead in the first half on a penalty kick, but RND scored a try on the final play of the first half to go into the break leading 5-3.

Some outstanding running and ball movement set up ADHS’s first try of the game, which, after the successful conversion, staked Arnprior to a 10-5 lead early in the second half. With only eight minutes to play, RND scored another unconverted try to knot the game at 10 points apiece.

With less than two minutes on the clock, Arnprior rallied to score a brilliant 50-metre try and claim the victory.

Arnprior dancers prepare to Shine The Arnprior School of Dance students held their annual showcase in May, but for many dancers their season is far from over.

The school’s competitive team will cap off a very successful season by travelling to the Shine Nationals in Niagara Falls June 29 to July 4. All 54 of the team members qualified and several of the team members also qualified for Shine’s coveted title competitions.

Joyia Chase, Mackenzie Ivory and Rebecca Cowal will be competing for the Miss Shine Acro title and Thomas Cherney will compete for the Mr. Shine title.

The school’s Senior Musical Theatre group and the Intermediate Acrobatics group have qualified for the danceoff competition on July 4.

This is an exciting part of the National Finals where every dance school has their strongest teams go head to head, explains Arnprior School of Dance director Monica Lyon.

The second qualifying competition was the team’s best showing of the season, which shows members are getting stronger each time they hit the stage.

“I expect that we will continue to improve and proudly represent Arnprior in Niagara Falls,” said Lyon. “ConElizabeth O’Connor acknowledges sidering we are among one of the smallest dance schools competing, we always do extremely well.” the audience.

Aunt Lizzie keeps thrilling Mother with special gifts to Mary Mother never got over Aunt Lizzie taking it upon herself to have my long red ringlets cut off on one of her yearly visits out to our farm in Northcote.

She had taken me into Renfrew, which in itself wasn’t that unusual. She often hitched up Queenie to the buggy and headed into town, as she said, ‘to break the monotony’ of her week visiting her homestead, and I was usually invited to go with her.

But that trip confirmed in Mother’s view, that Aunt Lizzie couldn’t be trusted to take me off the farm without a fair warning that under no condition was she to take me to a beauty shop and have my hair trimmed, as Aunt Lizzie called it.

It certainly wasn’t trimmed ... it was bobbed, and even though I was thrilled to be rid of the ringlets, Mother was as upset as she would be had I lost an arm or a leg!

And so the next summer when

Aunt Lizzie had again arrived from Regina, after about three days, she was starting to get the fidgets. I knew she was ready for a trip into Renfrew.

Ordering everyone within earshot, she sent me upstairs to change my clothes, sent Everett to the barn to bring out Queenie, and told Emerson to get the buggy out of the drive shed.

Mother shot her a glance that was a warning in itself: “stay away from the beauty parlour with Mary.”

A whole year had passed, and my ringlets were a long way from being back to the length they were before what Mother called “Aunt Lizzie’s sticking her nose in where it didn’t belong.”

It was a warm sunny day when we headed into Renfrew, and I was beside myself with anticipation because Aunt Lizzie, I knew, would be buying me a treat. It could be anything from store-bought underwear, to new

Of course we would have to stop at Ritza’s Drug Store first, so that Aunt Lizzie could visit with one of the clerks who had gone to school with her. The only thing I would like to have had was a bottle of Lilly of the Valley Perfume, but I wouldn’t dare be so bold as to ask for it.

And then we headed up Raglan Street and into Walker’s Store, the biggest store in Renfrew. Aunt Lizzie went in like she owned the place, and the clerks knew they could count on a

pair of silk stockings was enough for me.

“She’ll grow into them,” Aunt Lizzie said. “Ya, when she’s ready to get married ... if anyone will have her,” I heard Emerson say under his breath.

Well, eventually it was time for Aunt Lizzie to board the CPR train in Renfrew and head back out to Regina. I even took the little brown bag with the silk stockings to the train just to show Aunt Lizzie how thrilled I was.

Back on the farm, and days later, the joy of owning something I couldn’t wear started to fester.

I knew the stockings would fit Audrey, but I wasn’t generous enough to just hand them over to her. I asked her if she would like to buy them, and she could have them cheap!

She tore upstairs to her drawer and brought down her hankie where she had tied in the corner all the money she owned. She counted out 12 cents.

And then I remembered all the times Audrey helped with my homework, sang to me at night in bed, protected me in the dark, and walked out to the outhouse with me when I was frightened. I picked up a big round brown penny and handed her the paper bag with the silk stockings in it.

I figured it was a good trade.

good sale, and they swarmed over us like bees looking for blossoms.

We headed right for the silk stocking counter. The one with the long glass leg upside down, where the stockings were checked when sold to make sure there were no snags or flaws.

Well! Was I in for a surprise! She ordered the clerk to pick out a pair of her shortest silk stockings, and without asking the price or anything, handed me the little brown paper bag.

“Now you have your very own silk stockings,” she cooed.

I was thunderstruck! I would have settled for a little pair of ankle socks with lace around the cuffs like bad Marguerite wore to the Northcote School.

But silk stockings? Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine owning silk stockings at six years of age. Sure, my sister Audrey, who was much older than I, had just got her first silk stockings for her 16th birthday!

When we got back to the farm, and Mother saw what Aunt Lizzie had bought me, she was only slightly less pleased than when I had my ringlets cut off. She told me to put them right upstairs in my washstand drawer for safekeeping.

But I begged her to let me keep them with me until after supper.

I sat through the entire meal with the little brown bag in front of my plate, and endured sneers from my brother Emerson who said when I wore them they would probably come up to my armpits.

He was right, of course. They were ladies stockings, but just owning a

At a fashion show at Island View Suites, Midge Langley shows off a replica of Scarlett O’Hara’s dress worn by actress Vivian Leigh at the beginning of the movie Gone With the Wind. The fashion show’s theme was based on the famous movie.

SCOTT CAMPBELL/ METROLAND

Fashions from a movie classic modelled

Island Park Suites residents were taken back in time with a fashion show that offered a look Betty Demers presents Scarlett’s mourning dress at costumes from a film many from the film, which she wore when dancing with considered a classic - 1939’s Rhett Butler.

Gone With the Wind.

Island View’s life enrichment co-ordinator Karen Colbert said the May 20 show featured replicas of the movie’s clothing made by Nancy McLeod, who was also emcee.

McLeod described the fabrics involved in her creations and also offered bits of trivia from the movie. For example, Clark Gable’s character Rhett Butler could have also been played by

Gary Cooper, Vincent Price or Humphrey Bogart.

In the past, McLeod has also presented shows with the themes of medicine and bridal fashions set in the Victorian era.

Old Bastards give back to the community

SCOTT CAMPBELL/METROLAND

The Northern Old Bastards Vintage Motorcycle Club donates $528 to the Arnprior and District Food Bank and Arnprior hospital. The club with members from all over the Upper Ottawa Valley collected more than $8,000 in the last year and divided the money among 15 communities and their hospitals and food banks. The amount for Arnprior came to $528. Club members also stopped on Shawville, Pembroke, Renfrew, Eganville, Almonte and Carleton Place to make donations. Pictured at the Arnprior presentation, in front, are Rolly Bedard and Ed Murphy; in the middle from left Garry Anderson, food bank president Kathy Tonkin, Helen Bird, Owen Bird and Ron Boulanger; and in back Debbie and Clarence Hodgins, Jeff Bonfield, and John Sadler.

Lutherans support healthy snacks for students St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church had applied for and received a compassionate justice grant of $1,000 from the Eastern Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Canada. The congregation decided the money should go towards a snack pack program for school children through the Arnprior and District Food Bank. Food bank president Kathy Tonkin noted it was the first time the program was specifically targeted for a donation. The church’s Jeff Kargus and Rev. Norine Gullons, right, present the donation to Tonkin.

The Arnprior Canine Association hosted its annual dog show throughout the Mother’s Day weekend (May 8-10) at the Nick Smith Centre.

“There are about 100 breeds a day to 1,000 dogs for the three days,” said show chairman, Thora Brown of Almonte.

“They came from Quebec City, London, Toronto, upper New York State, other American area (New Hampshire) and around the Valley.”

Trailers were already set up from people the day before in the parking lot for those who made the trek from afar.

Brown noted the judges for the shows came from Ontario, British Columbia and even Mexico.

“There is a blueprint,” said Brown of which each breed is judged on.

“There are shape, colors, ear placement, and length of skull, amount of bone, the tail, the hindquarters and how they move.

The judges assess for the ideal dog.”

Dog show rules have been around since the late 1800s and the early 1900s, but guidelines were adapted and updated throughout the years.

Doreen Linkletter of Almonte, was grooming her dog Finn, a Cairn Terrier the breed can most famously be connected

to Toto from the movie, The Wizard of Oz. She, along with all the participants, are well aware of the judges were looking for in their dogs.

The concept is about accumulating points to perhaps reach the national rankings.

Brown explained that with each show, if a dog and owner wants to win the top prize they have to go through three levels to make it.

First, there is judging done by breed, which can be a Bernese mountain dog, as an example.

If the judges approve they get advanced into one of seven different groups – the Bernese Mountain Dog would go into ‘working dog’ group.

There are also terriers, hounds and sporting dogs as other possibilities.

If the dog does well in the group, it heads to the final level, ‘Best in Show’.

“We (Arnprior show) have three Best in Shows,” said Brown.

The entries are also various ages. “We have baby puppy which is three to six months, puppy that is six months to one year.”

The rest of the entrants are older.

The Arnprior and District Humane Society worked the door at the show and received a portion of the admissions.

Arnprior Chronicle-Guide - Thursday, June 4, 2015 45

How to keep your pets safe this summer Summer can be especially dangerous for our pets.

Most of us assume that dogs are natural born swimmers when in fact, just like with humans, some dogs need to be taught to swim, some hate the water and some cannot and will not swim at all.

For those dogs that love the water, there are still other dangers out there like choppy water or seaweed, which can tangle the best swimmer and cause drowning. Age is also a factor, an older dog tires quicker or the water temperature may be cold, which could stress your dog.

Boating can present problems as well. Dogs that have been thrown overboard may drown while frantically attempting to get back to the boat or get caught up in the propeller.

All dogs on a boat should wear an approved life jacket equipped with a handle, so in the event they end up in the drink they can float until rescued and can easily be plucked from the water.

The life jacket will also serve as a marker so other

Pet Talk

IAN STUPP boaters will see your pet in the water.

Most outdoor dogs that need their thick coats to keep them warm throughout the winter months find themselves now being shaved down for the summer. This can present other problems, since they are now susceptible to bug bites, sun burn and heat stroke.

Skin So Soft from Avon works well for mosquitoes and OMBRELLE sunscreen for Kids with an SPF of 30 helps protect them from long periods of exposure to the sun.

Light color coats or short-

haired pets are most at risk.

Exercise your pet in the early morning or late afternoon, to reduce bug bites. Keep your pet indoors at dawn and dusk and to protect them against heat stroke keep them out of the sun between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. when the sun is at its peak.

If you do intend to keep your pet outdoors, make sure that they have a shady place to cool off in and plenty of fresh water. Remember that on a hot summer day, even a shady spot can easily reach well over 70°F or 80°F. A small pool can also be a fun way for you and your family pet to cool down. A simple rule to go by, if it’s too hot for you to go outside than it’s probably too hot for your pet.

If you suspect that your pet is having difficulties, do not hesitate to call your local veterinarian.

A thousand words wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bring you back, We know because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tried.

Metroland sponsors Ontario Entrepreneur Week breakfast

SCOTT CAMPBELL/METROLAND

Another boost for doctor recruitment Physician recruitment continues to be an important goal within the town.

Willis College of Arnprior made a contribution to the cause with a $500 donation on May 27. On hand to accept the cheque was Laura Tromp, left, who is the physician recruitment co-ordinator, and Mark Nibourg, chair of the Physician Recruitment Committee. Sheema Wood, right, makes the presentation on behalf of Willis College. The importance of doctor recruitment to the community was emphasized recently when the committee was honoured with the Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce’s President’s Award.

Ottawa and area business leaders are invited to get their day off to a running start Monday, June 15 at the annual Ontario Entrepreneur Week breakfast.

Sponsored by Metroland Media, the high-energy event will run from 7 to 9 a.m. at the Ottawa Conference & Event Centre, 200 Coventry Rd. “We are so pleased to be able to bring this wonderful event to Ottawa again this year,” said Mike Mount, vice-president and regional publisher with Metroland East.

“The breakfast offers likeminded business people an opportunity to network in a relaxed setting and learn about a remarkable Canadian entrepreneurial success story.”

Prepare to be inspired by this year’s guest speaker, John Stanton, founder of the Running Room.

FITNESS PROMOTED

The 1,300 employees who share his vision have touched the lives of more than a million Canadians over the years, encouraging them and demonstrating how running and walking lead to greater fitness and health.

Beyond his obvious business acumen is Stanton’s zest for life and his ability to motivate others.

From an overweight and outof-shape executive who smoked two packs of cigarettes a day 30 years ago, he has now run more than 60 marathons, hundreds of road races, several triathlons including the World Ironman in Hawaii.

Taking the stage before Stanton’s presentation will be local entrepreneur Karen Sparks, executive director of Wesley Clover Parks.

Sparks and her father, high tech mogul Terry Matthews, are revitalizing the former Nepean National Equestrian Park off Corkstown Road with the goal of attracting top-flight show jumping competitors to Ottawa.

This weeks puzzle answers in next weeks issue

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!
