Gervais sentenced to 13 years in jail Court hears agreed facts, victim impact statements in manslaughter case Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – “I need something. Can you help me, bud?” “I’m hurting, man.” “I’m hurtin’. Let’s get it done.”

Those were some of the dozens of texts and calls Jesse Gervais made in the minutes leading up to Brodie Armstrong’s death. They were read out in court last Friday morning, Oct. 3, during the manslaughter sentencing that saw Gervais given 15 years in prison (minus two for time served) with no chance of parole before 6.5 years.

Defence counsel Vince Clifford described Gervais’ state of mind as “driven in the grip of desire” for cocaine. His regular dealer unavailable, Gervais – 22 at the time - tracked down his friend. The addict was not responsible for intent, justice officials determined, which is why first degree murder charges were ex-

changed for manslaughter. Clifford also took time to say it is one of the highest sentences for the charge in Ontario history.

“He is not the person before you today,” Clifford said. That is small comfort to Armstong’s sister Candice. She, along with other family members read tearful victim impact statements after the agreement of facts was read out loud.

“I’m traumatized every day,” said Candice. “I worry about walking down the street with my young son some day and seeing the person responsible.”

She held a photo of her six-monthold and his uncle for the packed courthouse to see, described the day she got the call about her brother’s death, how she constantly envisions his final breath, how great a father he would have been, how she deleted many videos just days before June 12, 2013.

year ago. Her husband Clive Mimnagh, 65, moved several months later from their home in Edmonton. According to neighbours and social media sites, the couple argued often and the back of his blue F150 truck was said to be full of household belongings on the day of the tragedy.

Arnprior council candidates weigh in on local issues sherry.haaima@metroland.com

News –Arnpriorites had an opportunity to hear from council candidates at an event last week.

About 100 people turned out Sept. 29 in the small gym at Arnprior District High School for the all candidates night.

The Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce hosted the meeting, which was moderated by Jason Marshall of Valley Heritage Radio.

Eight of the nine council candidates vying for five spots on Arnprior council were in attendance. Acclaimed Mayor David Reid spoke briefly to open the event. Reeve Walter Stack has also been acclaimed.

Candidates on hand included incumbents Lyle Anderson, Lynn Grinstead, Dan Lynch and Ted Strike and newcomers Tom Burnette, Frank Dugal, Art Smith and Doug Smith.

Candidate Daniel Martin was not in attendance.

Along with opening and closing comments, candidates were posed written questions submitted by the audience. Topics included growth, big box stores, recreation and the candidates’ visions for the future of Arnprior.

Former Arnprior Fire Chief Tom Burnette said he now has the time and energy to dedicate to a role on council. “I will be a team member, dedicated, honest and accountable,� said the father and grandfather.

Federal public servant Anderson said during the past four years he has been privileged to be a part of operational improvements. “I hope I will have the opportunity to continue following this path of improvement and transparency,� he

said.

Dugal explained he held a number of positions in the federal government before retiring to Arnprior. The self-described lifelong community volunteer and leader is a former Cumberland councillor. “I hope to represent the residents and businesses of Arnprior,� he said.

Grinstead, a native of Arnprior, said she is a devoted and proud mother of four sons. The focus over the last four years has largely been directed internally and council has aggressively put spending controls into place. “I’m proud to be a key part of solutions,� she said.

Lynch, manager of the Arnprior Airport, is a married father and grandfather and a Canadian Armed Forces veteran. “I’m asking for your support on council’s past performance,� he said.

Family man Art Smith said he’d like to see the BIA returned and expanded and for housing development to slow down to allow for sale of existing houses. “Many changes must be made, especially downtown,� he said.

Doug Smith said he has all kinds of ideas for Arnprior. “Little things will make a big difference in this town and I hope I can bring those differences to Arnprior,� he said. “Experience counts,� said Strike who has been a member of various councils for 11 years.

The retired Arnprior public works director and father and grandfather said during the last election he made four promises that all have been completed. “During my daily walks with my wife Bev, I’m frequently stopped and complimented on my efforts during my tenure,� he said.

She died of massive head injuries on Charles Street near the corner of Daniel Street at about 2:30 p.m. on Oct. 2. He was spotted in handcuffs being loaded into an OPP cruiser soon after. A black sweater was on the ground behind the truck, and police tape stretched back several metres on Charles Street.

OPP have yet to say whether Hobbs-Mimnagh was hit from outside the truck or somehow exited while it was in motion.

The street was closed most of Thursday and Friday last week, though traffic was let through.

Mimnagh appeared in the Ontario Court of Justice, Pembroke, on Monday to face a charge of dangerous driving causing death. He was released

Brodie Armstrong’s car is pressed up against a home on Russell Street the day after he was killed by Jesse Gervais. the kitchen knife. Eight times in total, with four more as defensive wounds.

The car knocked over a fence and banged into a house. Witnesses arrived, told the knife-wielding Gervais to leave and performed CPR on Armstrong, who crawled out of the car.

Taken by ambulance to hospital, Armstrong was pronounced dead soon after.

A small baggie of cocaine worth $50 was taken.

Another was later found beneath the driver’s seat.

Meanwhile Gervais ran up McGonigal Street West, was outside Danny Mac’s, and eventually made it to a friend’s place. The knives were later found in yards.

He texted friends to say “I f**ked up� and “Yo, man, Gervais on the run. Just stabbed B.A.� and “I probably will never see you again.� A friend texted back to ask if he was “seized,� meaning high on drugs. “You have no idea,� was the response.

Gervais changed out of the bloody clothes (which were never recovered from the river), and was cleaned up by friends.

The next day he watched a hockey game with another friend. He also got $350 wired to him from a friend in Calgary.

On route to Alberta, he was to surrender peacefully to police in Sault Ste Marie.

His shoes were bloodied. “Brodie was my friend.

Justice Jane Wilson, who presided over the sentencing, received the statement of facts agreed to by the crown and defence. It listed the calls and texts, offered photos to Wilson, described Gervais’ and Armstrong’s lives up to the fateful day, and detailed the eventual rendezvous between the two Arnprior men.

Gervais had consumed alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine from about Grade 10. He spent three weeks in rehab at one point. But his descent reached a new low in the month before the killing. He was kicked out of his father’s house in White Lake, lost his job in the family blasting business, and was couch surďŹ ng in town; in particular at an Elgin Street apartment.

That is where he returned after drinking a 26 oz of whisky at a friend’s while watching a hockey game on television. Drunk, he wanted cocaine. His dealer was in Ottawa, so started badgering Armstrong. They haggled over quantity and price for about an hour.

She is left with “a limited amount of stories� to share with her son and others.

His sister Krys Armstrong said Brodie’s was the only blessing she and her ďŹ ancĂŠe needed, that he was among the few people she looked up to and believed in, who made her feel good about herself, who only wanted a simple life for himself though he could have become anything he wanted.

He often made dinner for the whole family, taught himself the guitar and loved to bring music to people, was happy-go-lucky and had 600 people attend his funeral. A golf tournament in his name has already raised more than $15,000. “I had Brodie to stand up for me,� Krys said. “I don’t have my brother. I’ll never see him again. I’m not the same person anymore.�

She alluded to Brodie’s mistake to sell drugs, but that the 21-year-old was robbed of the chance to change his mind or grow wiser from the experience. From her own experience, she worries of how a death can irreparably shatter a family.

Brodie’s mother, Kim Kenny, said she misses his smile, his laugh, his bear hugs; his “incredible voice�; her heart aches knowing he can never tell her again how much he loves her.

There’s a weight on her chest. She once lived with depression and now fears grieving too deeply. It has touched every aspect of her life – from a stranger asking how many children she has to a trip to the drug store where they tested cologne together – just to hear certain songs on the radio causes her to lose breath. “I dread family occasions. They are something to emphasize the fact Brodie’s not here.�

She feels guilty for not giving more to the rest of her relationships. She feels guilty for many things. “I miss my Brodie,� she said, sobbing.

News – McNab-Braeside Township needs new blood at the council table, says candidate Mark MacKenzie.

“As much new blood as possible.”

His business and volunteer experience make him a good man for the job, said MacKenzie, who is one of five people running for three council spots.

“I bring 30 years of business and board experience to the table,” he said. “Clearly one of the biggest roles for council is to set a workable but tight budget that keeps taxes down but provides the maximum amount of services.”

MacKenzie is self-employed – he and wife Kathy co-own Appleseed Snowblowing, an award-winning business that consists of five franchises.

The couple has two boys who attend McNab Public School and two adult daughters, both of whom are getting married this year.

Originally from Ottawa, MacKenzie is no stranger to politics, he was the provincial Green Party candidate for the Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke riding in 2007, is past president of the federal green party and has been involved in politics with three different parties over the past 30 years.

“When I first moved here 10 years ago I always had the feeling I would run for something, somewhere,” he said. “I’m excited about the opportunity of local representation.”

MacKenzie has been on the board of governors for a number of volunteer organizations, including Prevent Cancer Now and was a founding board member of Wakefield Mill Develop-

SHERRY HAAIMA/METROLAND

Mark MacKenzie has business and board experience and wants to represents the interests of all residents at the McNab-Braeside council table. ments.

His decision to run for township council stems from his experience as co-founder of MB4RR (McNab-Braeside Residents for Reading and Recreation).

After council decided to end shared recreation and library agreements with Arnprior and Renfrew, the group collected and presented a petition to council with 2,200 signatures asking for transfer agreements

to be extended for one year, to no avail.

“I saw how unwilling this particular council was to listen to the needs and wants of the people,” he said. “They are very intent on doing things based on their own personal views.”

He hopes to be a part of the solution at the McNab-Braeside council table.

“I’m a passionate believer in the power of democracy and when public servants keep an

active and open ear to listen to what the public wants then the system works very well,” said MacKenzie. “This council seems to be dysfunctional on many levels.”

MB4RR collected more signatures than any one member of council got votes in the last election, said MacKenzie.

“They ignored the petition asking for a one-year extension of the shared agreements and I felt there was no justification for that,” he said.

Expansion of the Miller Quarry near Braeside is also a significant issue in the township, said MacKenzie.

“I think every citizen here has the right to clean air and clean water so I don’t think an asphalt plant goes along with that,” he said. “I think we should be doing what we can to stop an asphalt plant.”

Along the campaign trail, MacKenzie said he continues to encounter people who don’t have a sense of what council’s plan is for moving forward.

“A lot of decisions are made ad hoc,” said MacKenzie. “Developers are very frustrated dealing with township hall.”

If elected, MacKenzie would seek out “professional and learned” citizens in the township and make use of their expertise.

“Using a consensus process we could come up with a longterm plan that involves sustainable development and development that makes sense for this community,” said MacKenzie.

He and his family are thrilled to be living in such a rich natural landscape on the banks of the Madawaska.

“I worked up in Moosonee as a teenager and always wanted to live close to nature,” he said.

“We are lucky.”

News - Few running for town council can say they are better known in Arnprior than Tom Burnette.

The longtime fire chief – from 1976 to 2010 – was born and raised in town, just like his parents and their parents before. He always has a story ready to tell: as a kid swimming under the trestle and screaming at a train; empty parking lots that once held such-and-such a building.

Burnette is a wealth of local history.

But that’s not why he’s running. “I have the time and the energy and I know what it’s like to be on the other side of the table.�

His 35 years experience at the municipality affords him insight into the bureaucracy.

He knows how it operates, the pressures staff face, and the goals they can accomplish. “I understand things from the administration side,� he said. “The town has been trying to sustain what we have as a small town. But we can only do so much with the tax dollars we have.�

Burnette is pleased with how Robert Simpson Park has unfolded, along with the waterfront. He wants to look into the possibility of turning the trestle over the Madawaska into a walkway linking Riverside Estates with the neighbourhood behind the legion.

Of course he favours a solution to the services agreement impasse with McNab-Braeside. And he champions increases to the tax base through controlled growth.

He wonders if landlords can cut a break, say one year, on rent to downtown businesses.

But as for the town suspend-

More jails not the answer

B

usiness is booming in Ontario jails, but it’s the kind of expansion nobody wants.

This week, we published the final instalment of our four-part series about recidivism – when previously convicted criminals reoffend - in Ontario and the state of our correctional system.

The numbers tell a disturbing tale. We discovered an odd statistical trend: despite the fact that Canada’s crime rate has been steadily declining over the past decade – this year we’re at a level not seen since 1969 – the number of federally incarcerated offenders hit a record high in 2013.

Overcrowding is the new reality in Canadian prisons, with double-bunking prisoners required in 20 per cent of all federal prison cells. Also on the upswing is the rising cost of Canada’s prison system: the annual price per offender is $200,000 for females and $117,000 for males in federal penitentiaries.

Meanwhile, the cost of community supervision of offenders hovers around $35,000 per year. Critics of the federal government say we are following the failed example of the United States that started during the

1980s, with a massive push for prison construction and tougher sentences.

Three decades later, our southern neighbours, a country with 700 of every 100,000 people incarcerated, are reconsidering their strategy and are now starting to spend more tax dollars on rehabilitation and support programs instead of prison construction. We need to follow their example.

With so many critics – both academic and political – calling into question the federal government’s tough-on-crime approach, with the introduction of mandatory minimums and stiffer sentences, what is the government’s rationale for its push for prison construction?

During the past two months we repeatedly called and emailed the office of Steven Blaney, the federal minister for Public Safety, with no response.

If the Conservatives insist on pushing forward with an irrational correctional strategy, one that will eventually cost us dearly financially, perhaps the only convincing argument must be delivered at the ballot box.

LETTER

Important to know how democracy works To the Editor: There is so much in dispute for municipal politicians to deal with this year.

So much responsibility. Not a job I would want. Whether it is the recreation controversy or the Braeside quarry expansion disaster, you’d have to agree that being on McNabBraeside Council is not a stress-free job!

But let’s look at this more closely.

Who actually is responsible for decisions made by an elected council?

Well, each member is responsible to his/her electorate.

That doesn’t just mean the vocal ones who let council know exactly

what they want, but all the residents of the township.

We would hope that all council members would be responsible for the welfare of their people; that was why they were elected.

Unfortunately, that is not always the case.

Did you know that the only person who is legally responsible for a council decision is the mayor? And the mayor has just one vote, as do each of the other councillors.

So the mayor may be out voted 41, yet nevertheless the mayor must support that decision, support the council and speak in favour of a decision the mayor did not vote for. How

hard would that be?

The mayor doesn’t have the luxury of simply trying to curry favour with the loudest electorate.

The mayor has the responsibility of trying to find out what is best for the whole municipality and try to do it.

But in a democracy the responsibility goes beyond the mayor. It lies squarely at the feet of each constituent. Many people have opinions on controversial issues. But what are these opinions based on, really? On their own self-interest or that of the whole community?

Have they been to all the meetings when discussions took place and

decisions were made? Have they done the research, read the studies, crunched the numbers? Do they have the facts?

All you have to do is look at the attendance at regular council meetings to know the answer to that.

People just do not attend.

So when you hear or read opinions stated as if they were facts, numbers that are never verified, be a responsible citizen in a democracy and say ‘Just a minute here, I’ll make an informed decision when I have all the facts.’

Do more to ensure food security To the Editor: The Commonwealth Foundation recently commissioned Dr. Wayne Caldwell and Kelsey Lang to put together a paper called ‘Perspectives on Planning for Agriculture and Food Security in the Commonwealth’. It focuses on the need for food security planning and offers up several tools that planners can use to ensure that their region or country is food secure.

There are environmental concerns, including climate change and its unknown impacts on food supply, as well as land degradation and the need to ensure the productive capacity of the land in the future is maintained.

Ontario is a prime example of a region that has become highly urbanized with intense development pressures.

While there are many good tools that exist in the province, from the Greenbelt Plan to the work of the Farmland Trust, the co-ordination of efforts to ensure that Ontario can be food secure into the future is not as strong as it could be.

for his error.

Shamefully he didn’t stop there but went on to call Trudeau’s parents “sluts” on public television.

To use that kind of language when children are within hearing is grossly inappropriate.

To refer to a late prime minister and his wife as such (regardless of their personal lives) is not giving them the basic respect that human

beings deserve.

In this country “the state has no place in the bedrooms of the nation” so why must vultures like Mr. Levant force their way into the private lives of politicians who deserve privacy too.

We complain when politicians invade upon our private lives yet we have no issue when the media invades that of politicians, despite the

obvious elements of voyeurism present.

Mr. Levant’s rhetoric is biasedthat is part of the charm of our democratic right to free speech.

Free speech means sharing opinions which disagree but still respecting those of others. Ezra Levant has sul-

lied the tradition of real journalism, and degraded Sun Media with his glaring lack of respect and he should be called out for it by someone far higher up the ladder than me. If behaviour like this persists Sun Media should be shunned as no journalist should support their fellows in such an attack.

To the Editor: We are now in the midst of an interesting political campaign in McNab/Braesideand the candidates’ signs are prominently displayed on lawns and roads throughout the township.

After reading pamphlets/ flyers and the ChronicleGuide, voters are forming a decision about the candidates and their position on issues. I have already made my decision for the position of mayor – who I want and who I don’t think is up to the challenge.

One candidate, Mr. Peckett, claims to have common sense.

He points out that annual costs for OPP services will rise from $480,000 to over $1,100,000 (next year’s increase alone will raise the taxes considerably).

He says that he wants a “forensic audit� in the first year detailing and publicizing

the assets of the township (is there not a cost for this?). He wants a multi-year agreement with Arnprior and Renfrew for library and recreation services (I agree this is a worthy goal, but it will be costly).

Mr. Peckett wants to hire a planner for the township instead of using the part-time services of Renfrew County.

He also wants to change some or all of the by-law 2013-31; and that will lead to the hiring of costly lawyers and probably appeal hearings. And then he states boldly, “I will reduce your tax levy, leaving more money in your pocket.�

That is not the statement of a person with common sense.

I have learned over the years that politicians who say they will lower taxes while restoring services or even adding new services are simply not believable.

Those people who want to

renew the library and recreation agreements should remember that Councillor Styles was a member of our township council when we completed the deal for four services in 2004. The agreement was approved unanimously by both councils and came into effect in 2005.

A municipal election is an exciting and challenging time for the candidates and I respect them all for having the courage and desire to serve their community.

But I hope voters will be choosing the candidates that are best informed and offer a sensible approach to solving the many challenges of municipal government.

To the editor: Someone said to me the other day that the McNab-Braeside election is all about a recreation agreement to use the Nick Smith Centre.

And I thought, surely not!

There certainly is an interest group that uses those facilities, from what I understand maybe even a thousand people, but they don’t have accurate numbers. It looks like even fewer. But there are 7,600 people in the township, so surely a small vocal interest group isn’t the main issue here, is it?

To me, what is an issue in an election is the bottom; what will really affect my lifestyle; what is really going to cost me money in raised taxes. That’s what I thought everyone was interested in. So why all the kafuffle because our elected officials wanted clear, open and transparent accounting for one of the services offered to our residents? That’s what you expect your representatives to do, not spend hundreds of thousands of our tax dollars year after year with no accounting!

So if recreation is an interest group, not an issue, what does really affect the bottom line of all the tax payers in McNab-Braeside? Well there is a big money issue simmering over on the Braeside Ridge. Water! Now that is an issue.

Those people have been told over and over again by a highly qualified hydrogeologist with more than 25 years of experience dealing with these very water issues that both the quantity or quality of their water is threatened by quarry expansion!

So naturally, those people want to sell up and move to a safer locale. But they can’t sell their homes. Some people have reduced the price over and over with still no offers. So discontent is brewing. Why should they have to pay such high taxes on homes they’ll never be able to sell at value? Of course they will demand to be reassessed by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation, at a much lower rate to reflect the tremendously diminished value of their prop-

erty. That means a big effect on the township tax income because a huge amount of that tax base for the township is on the whole Braeside Ridge.

And that’s just the beginning.

What is the hydrogeologist’s prediction of loss of water quality really happens? That’s right; he’s talking about a petrochemical spill from all the fuel for all the trucks, loaders, crushers, asphalt plant, etc. that will be stored in the quarry on top of the aquifers for the whole ridge. What if there was an asphalt plant fire? What if the aquifers below and the creeks become polluted? That will never go away. He warned that it is just a matter of when, not if, it will happen.

Obviously all those homes would be worthless. I asked an MPAC rep. what those million dollar homes would sell for if the water went.

He said they’d simply never sell. Without water you have nothing.

So then you have to think of a $40 million water filtration plant plus another $40 million to get the water to all the people on top of all that rock on the whole ridge. Big dollars! Who would pay? The company? Forget it! Their local subsidiary would declare bankruptcy and the parent multinational would never be touched.

Even with some provincial funding what would happen to McNab-Braeside’s enviable debt free status? Gone! Would the province simply declare the township financially unstable? Will the township no longer exist? What do you think?

Now there is an issue that affects every person in this township!

Meanwhile the people of the Braeside Ridge are quietly digging into their own pockets to fight this multinational at the Ontario Municipal Board Hearing. Where are all the other people of this township who will be affected where it hurts: in their wallets.

Candidate meeting informative To the editor: It was an all-candidates meeting minus one Sept. 29 in Arnprior 7 – Mr. (Daniel) Martin was a no show.

I am pleased to say, regarding the only woman on the platform, you could understand every word she said and she had some good ideas.

As for some of the men, I had to hold my tongue to keep from shouting ‘Take the gum out of your mouth!’

The very first thing you must be able to do is speak out loud and clear to let the people know what you are saying.

One candidate, if he gets all his dreams the taxes in this town will double and all the seniors will have to move out of town to McNab-Braeside.

Candidates asked about big box development Continued from Page 2

Whether candidates support big box stores was among the questions.

“They’re not required, we have enough downtown space,” said Lynch. He made note of a wealth of unused retail space in the town. “If that was totally used by the mom and pops, our business community would be next to none.”

Burnette said he had mixed feelings on the issue but would support big box development.

“Do we need one in Arnprior? That’s something that will be determined by the powers to be. One thing a big box store will do is provide an awful lot of employment.”

Strike said big box stores have certain rules and regulations pertaining to where they start up.

“We’re just not going to see big box stores in Arnprior based on the information we’re getting in commercial surveys,” said Strike.

Anderson said he recommends efforts to develop big box locally, in particular Smart Centres.

Doug Smith said he championed big box stores coming to Arnprior. “I took up that fight. We’re losing $150 million retail sales dollars each year,” said Smith.

Art Smiths is pro big box stores, too. “We need bigger stores in town. Why should

we have to drive all around us? We’re putting in all these houses/developments – we need something to go with it,” he said.

Grinstead said she is definitely pro-development. “Big box stores will not only keep people in our community, it will attract people to our community as well,” she said.

Dugal said he would welcome big box development, “but the bus has already left.”

Gap analysis will help identify what is needed. “Do we need a bigger grocery store, a new Canadian Tire?

The answer is yes but I don’t think they’re coming anytime soon.”

PRIORITIES

Another question asked candidates to prioritize the importance of municipally funded services and asked candidates where they would put funds should they become available. Among the items listed were Robert Simpson Park (RSP), Nick Smith Centre (NSC), the Arnprior and District Museum, the Arnprior Public Library, the Arnprior

Marina and the Arnprior Airport.

The marina and airport topped Doug Smith’s list while Art Smith said the NSC and RSP are priorities.

Grinstead and Dugal listed the marina and park at the top of their lists.

Airport manger Lynch agreed he may be a bit biased but the airport was priority, followed by the marina.

Tom Burnette put the NSC

up high, followed by the airport.

Strike said he links RSP, the marina and the nearby trails as one high priority.

“The NSC has my number one based on it’s an annual revenue income,” said Anderson, who listed the airport next.

Working Smoke Alarms Save Lives – Test Yours Every Month!

(McNab/Braeside) – Oct 2 2014 Fire Prevention Week is October 5 – 11, 2014. This year’s theme is Working Smoke Alarms Save Lives: Test Yours Every Month. To increase the chances of surviving a fire, McNab/ Braeside Fire Department is reminding everyone in our community to test their smoke alarms today and monthly.

“Only working smoke alarms save lives, so make sure to test all of your smoke alarms,” says McNab/Braeside Fire Chief Dave Hartwick. “It is one of the easiest tests you’ll ever take.”

Ontario law requires that working smoke alarms be located on every storey of the home and outside all sleeping areas. McNab/Braeside Fire Department recommends the following smoke alarm and safety tips: • Test smoke alarms monthly. Consider vulnerable family members, friends and neighbours who may be need assistance maintaining and testing their smoke alarms – let’s make sure to test theirs too!

“I am challenging everyone in this community to demonstrate how you test your smoke alarms, “says McNab/Braeside Fire Chief Dave Hartwick. “Post your pictures to Facebook or Twitter with the hashtag #FPW2014.”

To get more information about smoke alarms, visit McNab/Braeside website www.mcnabbraeside.com or (OFMEM website at www.ontario.ca/firemarshal).

Fire Marshal and Chief, Emergency Management @ ontfiremarshal. The official hashtag for Fire Prevention Week 2014 is #FPW2014.

For more information contact: McNab/Braeside Fire Chief at 613-623-5767 ext 233

• Change the batteries once a year.

• Replace smoke alarms after 10 years.

• Develop and practice a home fire escape plan with everyone in your household.

Burnstown sculptor Richard Gill and his wife Cheryl Babineau sit amidst some of the pieces included in Gill’s annual fall show, this year entitled Rhythm and Wine. The show opened Oct. 3 at Fog Run Studio at Bittersweet Gallery and runs until Oct. 13. As a youth, Gill was known for having one of the best record collections in his high school and later as a budding student of architecture at the University of Florence he was enchanted by the surrounding hill towns and vineyards where he would retreat to sketch and draw. His taste in wine and music have evolved and so has the nostalgic desire to express it in his work.

Then I realized I was looking at a squirrel. By its size and shape it was a Gray Squirrel, which can be gray or black.

This one, however, was neither.

It was white. At least the scant ribbon of hair that covered the upper part of its head and back and tail was white. The rest of the body was unclothed.

The large eyes had a pink tinge to them, as did its long naked fingers. The wretched thing was obviously an albino.

But something else was wrong with it. It had lost most of its hair either to mange, which is caused by skin mites, or to a fungal disease. Apparently mange is relatively rare in squirrels, but the latter condition - known as dermatophytosis – occurs more frequently, especially during a wet year.

We certainly have had our fair share of rain so a fungal infec-

After resting on the log for a moment, the squirrel tumbled into the water on the opposite side and struggled to the shore.

When it finally reached solid ground, it attempted to climb a tree but fell off its base, obviously too weak to succeed. It then crawled away, vanishing slowly into dense foliage.

Would the squirrel survive?

Opinion - Every time one ventures out into the wild you can anticipate seeing certain animals. For example, on any full day outing in the woods it is hard not to meet a Blackcapped Chickadee. And in the right type of forest and season one can predictably encounter an Eastern Chipmunk or a Red Squirrel. But on occasion you come across an animal totally out of context. Recently that very thing happened to me.

I was canoeing in Morton Creek when I noticed motion in the water between the canoe and the shore. At first I couldn’t tell what the creature was because very little of it was visible in the thick algal mat through which it was struggling. All I could discern was that it was relatively small and pale in colour.

When the creature finally reached a log, with great effort it weakly pulled itself out of the water. My first full view was of its back, and I puzzled as to what the animal was. A narrow band of white ran along the top length of its body from its oversized head all the way down to its long tail, which was waterlogged. Its sides and legs were rumpled sheets of folded, naked skin. It was a creature that would have seemed more at home in a Lord of the Rings

Breaking the chains of recidivism Local community rehabilitative programs and services pick up the slack for federal government

results, excessive use of incarceration has enormous cost implications.”

If mandatory minimums have no affect on recidivism, the federal government must find a way to justify these by evaluating their affects on crime, said Irwin Waller, a professor of criminology at the University of Ottawa.

“We actually know that it doesn’t from studies in other countries, which really means the U.S.,” he said.

Yasir Naqvi, Ontario minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services, said the provincial government’s focus is crime prevention.

“The federal government seems to have a different focus than that,” Naqvi said. “We have raised those concerns with the federal government. We believe that they should offset the cost of measures like mandatory minimum sentencing … because that is going to have a detrimental impact not only on the provinces, but also on the society at large as well.”

Federal Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney did not respond to numerous requests for comment by Metroland East.

Metroland East Special Report

A

staggering number of Ontario convicts – more than half - will go on to reoffend within two years of completing their sentence.

With lack of supports, employment and rehabilitation opportunities, exxperts say many offenders fall through the cracks and are sent back behind bars.

The government is failing on the public safety file, according to Wayne Easter, the Liberal public safety critic.

In Canada the rate of recidivism is estimated at 44 per cent, according to a study prepared for the Solictor General of Canada on federal offenders released between April 1, 1994 to March 31, 1995.

In comparison, the national rate of recidivism across the United States, a country known for its high rate of incarceration, is 43 per cent.

“They have been working on this issue (of recidivism) through the Justice Centre (in the United States) and they are going in the opposite direction from the Harper government because they know the tough-on-crime approach doesn’t work,” Easter said.

With the introduction of mandatory minimums and stiffer sentencing, prisons across Canada are bracing themselves for an influx of inmates.

During the past decade, federal prisons have seen a population increase of 24 per cent, moving from 12,413 inmates in 2003 to 15,400 inmates in 2014.

Meanwhile, the number of prisoners incarcerated in provincial and territorial jails saw a 13.1 per cent jump over the same time period.

But that doesn’t mean crime is up, according to a 2014 report by Statistics Canada.

The traditional crime rate fell by eight per cent, continuing a trend that started in the early 1990s and this year reached its lowest level since 1969, according to the StatCan report.

Critics tie the increase in the num-

Prison time has a negative affect on reducing criminal behaviour according to a review of 50 studies between 1958 and 1999 by a team of academics from the University of New Brunswick and the University of Cincinnati. Excessive use of incarceration also has ‘enormous cost implications’ warns the study.

Part 4: A prescription to reduce the number of repeat offenders in Canada’s jails as well as the rate of incarceration. ber of incarcerated offenders to the federal government’s tough-on-crime legislation, which introduced stiffer sentencing rules and mandatory minimums.

“The principle rationale for mandatory minimums is the belief that length of time in prison acts as a deterrent for future recidivism,” states a 1999 report

by Paul Gendreau and Claire Goggin, with the Centre for Criminal Justice Studies at the University of New Brunswick and Francis Cullen, from

the department of criminal justice at the University of Cincinnati.

But a review of 50 studies dating back to 1958 showed that jail time resulted in a slight increase in the rate of criminal reoffence and that there was a tendency for low-risk offenders to be “more negatively affected” by serving time in prison.

“Prisons should not be used, with the expectation of reducing criminal behaviour,” concluded the report’s authors. “On the basis of the present

Expenditures at federal jails have ballooned from $1.58 billion to $2.72 billion from 2002 to 2012 and the cost of incarceration has gone up by 47.8 per cent in that time, according to a 2013 report by Public Safety Canada.

Last year, the federal government asked Correctional Service Canada to cut 10 per cent of its operating budget.

“So they began to look at ways that they could maintain their core operations but still save money,” said Howard Sapers, the federal prisons’ ombudsman. “What that’s translated into is the erosion of some services for offenders and the cancellation of some programs.”

Over the years, the correctional department has eliminated prison farms, reduced access to prison libraries and cut funding to buy library materials.

Overcrowding in Canadian jails means less space for programming, and double bunking is now the norm, Easter said.

REHABILITATIVE PROGRAMS

The pressure placed on the correctional system is also affecting family members of offenders.

An Ottawa support group for women with relatives serving time in

prison is advocating for funding proven rehabilitative programs, changes to Canada’s remand system as well as more diversion programs, such as a mental-health or drug court and restorative justice.

“We want to put practices in place, evidence-based practices in our corrections system that will reduce recidivism, because none of us want to go through it again,” said one of two founding members of Mothers Offering Mutual Support or MOMS. Eventually, most offenders will be released from prison, the Ottawabased mother said, who asked to remain anonymous.

“This person could be your neighbour. How do you want this person to come out? Do you want them coming out having good insight as to what led to their offence, really good insight and for them to have strategies to ensure it’s never going to happen again?” she asked. “(Correctional Service Canada) has a whole list of excellent rehabilitative programs, but their funding has been cut and some of the programs too have been kind of blended together as a one-size-fits-all program.”

Meanwhile, the rate at which offenders are granted parole continues to set new historic lows and a greater percentage of offenders are spending more of their sentences behind bars in increasingly volatile and hardening conditions of confinement.

The programming that does exist often faces precarious funding situations and dwindling resources.

If prison programs are cut, that moves some of the burden to community-based programming, though dollars are stretched just as thin there.

Impending federal cuts to Circles of Support and Accountability, a community based program that helps high-risk sex offenders reintegrate after prison is “nonsensical,” said Randall Garrison, the federal public safety critic for the New Democratic Party.

“That is probably the most single most effective program in probably the whole prison system.”

Public Safety Canada acknowledges the program’s success, but in the House of Commons, Minister Steven Blaney has said the Circles program is not in the ministry’s mandate, said Garrison, who doesn’t buy this, and has told Blaney, “‘Your mandate is not punishment, it’s corrections. It’s called corrections. It’s called rehabilitation.’”

“

“It’s very disturbing to realize that less than four per cent of the Correctional Service’s overall budget is spent on correctional programs.”

What they said “There needs to be a national mental-health strategy ...

Prison is the wrong place to deal with these types of things.”

WAYNE EASTER, LIBERAL PUBLIC SAFETY CRITIC

Easter also points to evidence that shows rehabilitation programs have a positive impact on an individual’s ability to rebuild their life.

But the supports need to be there.

“There needs to be a national mental-health strategy,” he said. “Sixty per cent of the country’s inmates have mental-health issues and 70 per cent have addictions issues. Prison is the wrong place to deal with these types of things.

Far better than (going) cold turkey is support programs; there’s a chance of making it then. Beyond that, simply making it a condition of parole means that when someone falls off the wagon it’s a violation of their sentence. What works best isn’t punishment, but maybe access to a 30-day facility.”

One Ottawa halfway house for federal offenders looks to blend treatment and reintegration, and is designed to help treat the root causes of substance abuse and teach offenders new coping skills.

“Guys who come to Decision House don’t go back to jail,” said Louis Berubé, executive director of Maison Decision House, which has 14 beds that are always in demand.

Housing and employment help are also available to offenders, many of whom have been in and out of the system.

The organization’s annual budget is a little more than $500,000 – a lot less than the cost of keeping all “his guys” in jail, Berubé said.

John Howard Society of Ottawa staff visit the halfway house to offer employment skills training and provide leads on jobs.

The organization deals with clients who have complex needs, but the key areas of concentration need to be safe,

“(Offenders) need a safe place to ... develop community supports, where they can have mental health assessment, can develop a treatment plan.”

affordable housing and employment.

The society has a business stream that trains offenders how to do asbestos abatement work and then helps place them in jobs, said Don Waddell, executive director.

One offender who took advantage of the program, who asked to remain anonymous, said after he took the course, he realized afterwards he wouldn’t be able to join the worker’s union. Instead, he was paid less for the same work, and given worse tasks.

The offender said he and his coworkers were treated like secondclass citizens.

“I’m treated differently,’ I’m looked at differently,” he said. “We’re given the dirtier jobs and frowned upon. No matter what inroads I take, I’m always seen as a criminal.”

Though work is being done in the community to curb recidivism, there continues to be a push for change within jails.

The Ontario Public Service Employees Union Corrections Division published a paper in April 2014 titled New Directions: A blueprint for reforming the province of Ontario’s prison system to protect the public, reduce costs and rehabilitate inmates.

The report provides a variety of short-term and long-term fixes to reform the corrections system.

It suggests building temporary housing structures within existing facilities in order to renovate space to expand and add specialized units for severally physically and mentally ill inmates.

“We have an acute crisis with acute mental-health issues,” said Garrison, noting that between 40 and 80 per cent of people admitted to prisons have a mental illness or an addiction.

“In terms of acute problems, we don’t have adequate facilities.”

Though the federal government

says Canada’s prison population is not increasing as projected, Garrison said it is still growing by about 1,000 inmates per year.

“So you still have to provide the physical facilities for that and so a lot of resources are going to that and we don’t have the increased programming money to keep up with that,” he said.

“And so wait lists for treatment are going to get longer and therefore we’re going to get more people who are released who still have mentalillness problems, addiction problems (and) … who are more likely to reoffend because they haven’t had these basic underlying social causes of crime dealt with.”

There are programs in place, often run by non-for-profit organizations, which help fill the gap in services for repeat offenders.

Despite a lack of funding, some of the people they have helped have been able to get a fresh start or successfully begin reintegration in society.

Dan Parlow is one of those people who is breaking the cycle of recidivism, after being in and out of jail since he was convicted of armed robbery when he was 16.

Now, at 49, he’s been out of jail for the longest stretch since that first conviction, and says he knew he had to stay clean after he was paroled in July 2013, otherwise he’d end up back behind bars.

Enter the LifeHouse Residential program, a five-month, substanceabuse residential program run by the Ottawa Mission. Parlow completed the program, then entered secondstage housing and is now moving to an apartment in Blackburn Hamlet. He also started a degree in criminology at Carleton University. He was able to attend school thanks to financial support from the Mission’s donors.

At the close of the first semester,

”

Parlow had straight As and was hired to research Gladue reports for a consultant firm called IndinGENIUS. The reports are used in the Gladue court system, a special court for Aboriginal offenders – who are extremely overrepresented in the Canadian corrections system, according to statistics from Correctional Services Canada.

It’s a job he says he relishes because he believes it’s particularly important for aboriginals who are involved in the criminal justice system to have the supports they need.

DIVERSION PROGRAMS

There is a glimmer of hope for a fresh start if an offender can enter a diversion program, such as the precharge diversion program run by the Salvation Army, which works with first-time offenders.

The typical offence is theft under $5,000. Clients are directed to the program while they are waiting for their first court appearance, and are often referred by Ottawa police.

“Our office is in the court house and I typically see 30 to 50 clients per month,” said caseworker Sheena Lalonde.

When assessing a referral, Lalonde said she often looks at the whole picture.

“A single mom with two kids on Ontario Works is a totally different case than say, a teen stealing a stereo,” Lalonde said, adding she may assign the mother to community service hours at the food bank, so she can serve her sentence and connect with the organization for resources to prevent repeat offending.

Lalonde said she looks for the root cause of an offender’s crime.

“If someone is stealing to pay for a gambling addiction, for example, it’s

levels that provide public safety and hopefully can save taxpayers money in the long run.””

important to treat the original issue,” she said. “Scrubbing toilets isn’t really going to help them.”

Lalonde said just as much time is spent on connecting clients with resources like Ontario Works or the Low Income Energy Assistance program to help pay utility costs.

The Intermittent Community Work Program offered by the Salvation Army is similar to pre-charge diversion, but instead deals with clients who have already been sentenced. It helps them remain in the community and do service rather than lose their jobs by going to prison.

The program receives some funding from the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services.

Most clients are up on fraud or minor theft charges, and sentences vary, from two weeks to a year of weekends.

“It’s expensive to keep people in jail and this way people get to keep their jobs,” said program head April Rutherford, who deals with about 30 clients each month.

Offenders often work at the Salvation Army thrift store and the Shepherds of Good Hope, a charity that helps the poor and homeless in Ottawa.

Programs such as pre-charge diversion and intermittent community work would have been a welcome solution for Parlow when he first came into contact with the law.

Though he says he is now turning his life around, he can’t help but wonder what would have happened if he hadn’t entered prison, which he refers to as a “University of Crime,” at a young age.

“The system can be very harsh,” Parlow said. “Sometimes it can be a tough cycle to break on your own.”

Bake sale kicks off ADHS Class of ’85 fundraising News – Be there or be square – the countdown is on for the Arnprior District High School Class of 1985 reunion.

Student council president Chris Hanniman used the ‘Be there‌’ phrase often in 1985 and Borden Wallace was principal. Michael Jackson, Glass Tiger and ACDC were in everyone’s tape players.

Ghostbusters was big at the box office.

The first of a handful of events that will be held to support the class’ first reunion will be held this Saturday, Oct. 11 at the Turkey Bowl at ADHS’ Oattes Field.

It’s a fitting time to have people start thinking about the reunion, since it will take place on Thanksgiving weekend next year. “We are planning on hav-

ing a dinner and dance on Thanksgiving weekend next year on Oct. 10, 2015 at the Nick Smith Centre,� said coorganizer Terri-Lynn Bulmer Veale. “We will be organizing fundraisers throughout the year to make it an event that will be affordable and fun for all to attend.�

This Saturday’s fundraiser is a bake sale on the sidelines of a double header football event that will see ADHS

take on rival Renfrew Raiders.

The event gets underway at noon.

Proceeds will be going to the reunion fund and the ADHS Athletic Association. “This is our first fundraiser to pay for the down payment for the hall,� said Veale, and organizers could use some help. “Your donation of food, time or cash to buy ingredients would be much appreci-

ated.�

The reunion came about after several of the class members reunited on Facebook.

Once the hall is booked, organizers will reach out to the rest of the class members and form various committees to get going on the event planning.

A Facebook page has

been created and Veale said Class of ‘85ers are being asked to join the group and invite their friends.

See ‘ADHS Class of ’85 Reunion’ on Facebook, message Alanna Surprenant, Terri-Lynn Bulmer Veale or Liz Robinson or call 613327-7742.

Herb Walk at Island View Last week, Island View Retirement Suites hosted an Herb Walk with expert Carol McGrath.

The event was part of Active Aging Week activities. McGrath was an amazing speaker and held the group’s attention for more than an hour talking about weeds of all things! Organizers said the Island View’s waterfront patio was an ideal location to showcase this event. McGrath was expected to host a walk through the Grove this week to enjoy and explore the site, which is one of Canada’s largest ‘old-growth’ forests.

Three children are being treated for hospital-associated respiratory illnesses at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, which is reporting an upswing in visits to its emergency department by children seeking treatment for respiratory illness.

CHEO sees upswing in children with respiratory illnesses Staff

News – The region’s children’s hospital is experiencing a spike in visits to its emergency room by children experiencing respiratory illness, prompting staff to put outbreak measures in place to curb the spread of infection.

There have been no new confirmed cases of a serious respiratory virus infection, known as enterovirus D68, following the recent successful treatment of four children late last month.

However, three patients have come down with hospital-associated respiratory illnesses at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. The hospital reports all three are doing well.

The hospital last week reported 25 patients are being treated for respiratory illness.

While multiple respiratory viruses are currently making the rounds in the community, which the hospital says is typical this time of year, visits to CHEO’s emergency department were up seven per cent this September over last year.

“About one-quarter of visits to

CHEO’s emergency department currently are for respiratory infections, compared to 16 per cent last year,” Eva Schacherl, hospital spokeswoman, said in a statement released Sept.

24.

The hospital is taking extra precautions in one of its medical units to combat the spread of respiratory infections.

“Every year in viral season, you can expect hospitals to put measures in place in different units at different times to help prevent the spread of infection,” Schacherl said. “CHEO takes infection prevention and control very seriously, and staff members are extremely vigilant with precautions to prevent the spread of respiratory and other infections among its vulnerable inpatients.”

Extra measures range from restricting visitors to 4 East inpatient medical unit, limiting staff movement between different hospital units and increasing cleaning resources for rooms and equipment, among others.

Suggestions also include staying home when sick and frequently disinfecting surfaces, such as doorknobs and toys.

Introducing River Stone Christian Fellowship Sherry Haaima sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Lifestyle – A very special marriage took place in Arnprior recently.

A unique marriage ceremony was held Sept. 27 to celebrate the joining of River of Life Christian Fellowship and Rock Church Ministries at the corner of Madawaska and Bell streets in Arnprior.

River of Life Christian Fellowship Senior Pastor Sandra Stott and Rock Church Pastor Joe Moniz spoke to the Chronicle-Guide recently about the marriage and the special ceremony held to celebrate.

The church will be known as the River Stone Christian Fellowship. Rev. Clark Young of Glad Tidings Pentecostal Church performed the ceremony, which included a visit from Renfrew-NipissingPembroke MP Cheryl Gallant and Pastor Pauline Wilcox of Golden Lake, who performed the blowing of the shofar to celebrate the union of the two churches.

Moniz came to Stott two years ago and asked her to join the churches.

“To literally marry them in the sense of bringing two churches together,” said Stott.

River of Life has been in existence since 1997 and became an actual charity in 1999 and it’s the Rock Church’s 15th year. The Rock is a Canadian Fellowship of Churches and Ministers church and the River of Life is a Partners in Harvest church.

“As a church family we wanted to have some changes so we started to embrace Partners in Harvest style of worship, ministry and just their heart and vision,” said Moniz.

River of Life was already connected to Partners in Harvest and the congregation had been involved in some joint events in the past and had a good relationship so the mar-

riage makes sense.

The Rock Church had already opened its doors to River of Life when the congregation had been looking for a building to call home.

The marriage is about much more than growing the church community. “It’s not about size, it’s about the call and what we’re supposed to do for our region and our

Above, the new sign. towns. When we join forces we broaden the base of what we can actually do to be a part of the community,” said Stott.

This calling, said Moniz, extends into the community.

“Our biggest calling is to help people know who God is and enjoy Him, understand and experience who he is so that the community of our

church families extends beyond just ours. We love each other and we love God,” said Moniz. “We really emphasize the music, even dance, worship,” he said.

Stott agrees that the church’s work goes beyond the physical walls of the building.

There’s been no shortage of work involved in the marriage. “There’s a lot involved in bringing two churches together,� said Stott. “It’s preparing the people, how do you blend constitutions, looking at all the charities acts, the building.

Marguirite felt birthday gift was lacking THIS WEEK’S L FEATURE

PROUDLY CANADIAN

Arnprior Location

236 MADAWASKA BLVD., ARNPRIOR

ifestyle - Rare indeed were the times we girls of the Northcote School were ever invited to play at bad Marguirite’s home. But that week, nine of us, all of us who were in the Junior grades got little invitations handed out by bad Marguirite herself!

They were done up with real printing, no doubt on one of those new typewriters that we read about in the Ottawa Farm Journal, and we were all invited to a party to celebrate Marguirite’s eighth birthday.

Well! This demanded a meeting at the Northcote School, let me tell you! Cora said we should all just not go. Joyce said that would be very bad manners. Velma and I said we wouldn’t miss it for the world! For days, we could talk about nothing else.

I was the only one who had ever been in bad Marguirite’s house, and that was a day I would be happy to forget about. I barely got my nose inside the door when Marguirite and I got into an argument, and I was hustled home in her mother’s car, before I had a chance to even have a good look around. And I knew for a fact there were electric lights and a flush toilet, because Marguirite made sure we all knew about her modern conveniences. And there I was gypped out of trying either. Imagine a flush toilet, not a little hut behind the cedar trees at the back of the house, and electric lights just like they had in the houses in Renfrew!

The party was on a Saturday, and we were all decked out in our very best clothes...the ones we wore to church on Sundays. When we arrived on the dot, Marguirite looked like she had just stepped out of a gift box. Her artificial curls were tight around her head and looked for all the world like little golden sausages. I could have sworn she had on

MARY COOK

Memories lipstick and a spattering of rouge!

Her mother shook hands with us, just like the minister did after church on Sunday, and it didn’t take long for her to get us playing games, quiet ones, like snakes and ladders and Chinese checkers, and there were prizes for the winners.

Finally, we are shuffled out of the parlour and into the dining room...Joyce’s house was the only one I knew of which had a dining room...the rest of us ate our meals around old pine tables in our kitchens. There was even a white table cloth spread out, and in the very centre of the table was a cake with candles, and in front of each of our plates was a little bag like Mr. Briscoe used to measure out black pepper. A gift for each of us to take home.

But before we could have our cake, Marguirite’s mother brought in all our presents and put them in front of Marguirite in a heap. My gift seemed to be the biggest in the pile, but I had taken a heart shaped box that had once held chocolates, and arranged inside of it a lace hanky Aunt Lizzie had sent me in the hand-me-down box. There was certainly no money for frivolities like expensive birthday presents! Even at that, I hated giving up the little hanky, the only nice one I had with real lace on it. And the box had held little treasures I had collected, like shiny stones, my own hankie with a few pennies tied in a corner, and hair ribbons I kept for special occasions.

And there I was handing over two of my most precious possessions to a girl who did nothing but cause me anguish at the Northcote school!

Finally, she was down to my present. My sister Audrey had wrapped it in red tissue paper that had been ironed and which was once wrapped around a Christmas present. Marguirite tore into the parcel, which I thought was very extravagant indeed. We would have resaved the paper at our house!

I could tell she loved the heart shaped box, with the hand-painted face on the top. She lifted the lid and gazed at the lace hanky, which I read immediately as pure delight. She took out the hanky, and stared at the inside of the box.

Then she said, “Where’s the chocolates?”

Her mother quickly held up the hanky and made clucking sounds of approval, while bad Marguirite looked at me as if I had just stolen eggs out of their chicken coop.

While the cake was doled out, Marguirite never took her eyes off me, and I had the worst urge to ask for both the hanky and the heart shaped box back. And I couldn’t wait for the party to be over.

But before we were all to head home, I decided I was going to get something out of the day besides bad Marguirite’s ill temper, so I went upstairs and used the flush toilet...in fact, I flushed it three or four times, and even though the sun was shining in the little window, I snapped the light switch on an off for good measure.

Frontline homeless agencies receive $132K donation Thousands of dollars in funding for local frontline agencies will allow them to invest in energy efficient products and services that cut their energy use.

Ten local agencies that combat homelessness received the funding, totaled at $132,000 from Hydro Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brighter Tomorrows Fund and nearly $37,000 in energy conservation incentives from the province. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By targeting homelessness, one of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest social issues, through our Brighter Tomorrows Fund, we aim to make a lasting impact in the lives of our community and in the fight to end homelessness,â&#x20AC;? said Bryce Conrad, president and CEO of Hydro Ottawa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This business-giving model creates meaningful partnerships between our business, non-profit agencies and the United Way.â&#x20AC;?

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fund recipients are: Carty House, Daybreak Non-Profit

Shelter, Heartwood House, Minwaashin Lodge, Multifaith Housing Initiative, Operation Come Home, Options Bytown Non-Profit Housing Corporation, Shepherds of Good Hope, St. Joeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Supper Table and Youville Centre.

A wide variety of energy efficient replacements and upgrades will be completed for these agencies in 2014, including installing high-efficiency heating and cooling systems, purchasing new energy-efficient appliances, replacing drafty windows and upgrading lighting systems.

The Brighter Tomorrows Fund has invested nearly $530,000 in 50 projects over four years. Hydro Ottawa is also encouraging its customers to contribute by signing up for paperless billing. For each customer that goes paperless before the end of the year, Hydro Ottawa will make a $5 donation to the Brighter Tomorrows Fund.

Ian Stupp Pet Talk

Opinion - Turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget the pumpkin pie are just some of the favourites we all look forward to on Thanksgiving with family and friends. But what about our pets?

Here are 12 safety tips to help keep your pets safe on Thanksgiving: 1. Begging at the table: It would be best if you gave them their Thanksgiving treat in a bowl away from the table to avoid begging. Your guests would probably appreciate that.

2. Fatty foods: Too many fatty, rich, or unfamiliar foods can give your pet pancreatitis or gastroenteritis; two medical conditions that can be very painful and even life-threatening.

3. Diet and exercise: Maintain your petâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regular meal and exercise schedule and avoid too many holiday leftovers. A disruption in his dietary routine can cause stomach upset, diarrhea and/or vomiting.

4. Bones: Make no bones about it. Certain bones can lacerate or obstruct your petsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; insides.

Save the bones for the broth - not your dog.

5. Onions: Onions and onion powder, widely found in stuffing and used as a general seasoning, will destroy your dog or catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s red blood cells, which can lead to anemia.

6. Grapes and raisins: Grapes and raisins contain a toxin that can cause kidney damage to both dogs and cats.

7. Alcohol poisoning: Alcohol poisoning in pets is more common than you think! This is be-

cause alcohol can be found in a surprising number of places such as rum-soaked fruitcakes or unbaked dough, which contains yeast that can result in alcohol poisoning, other life-threatening problems and death.

8. Chocolate: Chocolate can actually be fatal to your dog or cat; so all those sweets must be kept well out of reach.

9. Food wrappings: Aluminum foil, wax paper and other food wrappings can cause intestinal obstruction. Make sure to place these items securely in the garbage.

10. Fresh water: Make sure your pet always has fresh water. When there are more people in the house, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more chance to bump into the water bowl leaving your pet dry.

11. Garbage: Keep an eye on the garbage and keep it securely fastened! If your dog gets into it, he may think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hit the jackpot, but all heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be winning is health problems from something as simple as gastric disturbance, vomiting and diarrhea to the worst-case scenario - death.

12. Quiet time: For those of you who would like some peace and quite at the table, kennel your cat or dog in an area of the home that is well lit and away from the excitement. Give them something to chew on or play with and leave a television or radio on. This will help distract them.

Have a great Thanksgiving and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to leave room for dessert!

Community - â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were brought up to work. It is a way of life for us.â&#x20AC;?

The words come from Levi Weber, after moving from the Kitchener area along with two other Mennonite families, to establish new roots in Renfrew County.

The Weber family arrived April 8 in Admaston-Bromley.

Work is an every-day reality on the Webersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 100-acre property on Stone Road.

Evidence one weekday morning includes the horses that teenage son Allan leads home following a wagon ride in the countryside, the sweating Percheron cooling off in the barn, the new storage building under construction beside the house, and the planting of garden seeds next to the house by his wife Velina and children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our teachings would be to stay away from an easy life,â&#x20AC;? says Weber, who turns 38 this month. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our faith is concerned with

Congratulations

The Webersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Mennonite faith dates back to Anabaptist beginnings with Menno Simons in the 16th century. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find our teachings are about modesty,â&#x20AC;? says Weber, whose faith basically follows

Mennonites make the Valley home

Mennonites in Renfrew County to maintain lifestyle But Mennonites live in about 80 countries.

Levi and Velina have eight children, including Franey, who just turned one, and Allan, who’s the oldest, at 14.

The others are Nathaniel, Solomon, Katie, Susie, Ina and Adeline.

Dancing and drinking of alcohol are not practised by the Mennonites, while hymns are their predominant choice of songs, notes Weber. Nor do they use telephones or computers.

Born in Kitchener, Weber grew up in Wingham, near the village of Wroxeter.

“Our community was looking to expand,” he says of coming to Renfrew County and avoiding the rising cost of property in southwestern Ontario.

“We may have had to make changes that would have affected our way of life.”

A group from their Mennonite community was appointed to find new residential territory, but they wanted to stay in Ontario where it’s easier to run their private schools. In contrast, there might have been more restrictions in Quebec, says Weber.

“We were very much in favour of the idea of spreading out, and there’s new opportunities in new areas. We felt that this was an area where the growing season was comparable to what we grew up with,” says Weber.

“It’s slightly shorter, which is not necessarily my choice, but generally the better growing season the higher the land price seems to be.”

In coming to Renfrew County, he sees a farming community that isn’t too far from other towns and major urban centres. Thus, the Mennonites have a local market for the produce they grow and other products, such as the steel roofing components that Weber sells through his own business.

Since Mennonites seek to minimize their dependence on motor-driven transportation, horses are a mainstay.

The automobile tends to be part of a fastpaced life, says Weber.

“They (horses) are the main mode of transportation, and horsepower on the farm,” he explains. “However, we do have the use of diesel motors and power units to drive the machines such as grain thrashers and corn-cutters.

“We don’t have any vehicles at all … but public bus lines will be used rather than regular vehicles.”

The Weber family has four Belgian or Percheron horses – Netty, Benny, Jasper and Pepper – as well as four lighter-boned road horses, a few younger horses that are being raised as replacement for aging horses, and a milking cow.

They also have two dogs, a Golden Retriever and Jack Russell, to keep the raccoons away from their garden produce.

Some have been accommodating, says Weber. These include Gourley’s Variety & Gas Bar and the Admaston-Bromley municipal office.

“Personally, I don’t just own horses because I can’t have a car,” he says. “I also like horses. I probably would have horses, regardless. They are to us a way of life that tends to help keep us away from the fast pace (of life).

“However, we are fully aware that it is not fair to make a horse work harder than what is right and what he is made for. We are very conscious of the fact that we want to be fair to our animals.”

Schooling is also central to the Mennonite community.

Children will be educated in a local Mennonite school, and not attend local schools run by the county’s Catholic or public school boards.

“We are concerned that our children try to run a pure life,” says Weber.

The Weber children are missing their friends, says their dad, but new friends will be made primarily with other Mennonite families, and through occasional social outings elsewhere.

Couples Manassah and Sarah Sherk of Fourth Chute and Moses and Betsy Martin of Cobden are among other recent Mennonite arrivals.

Flying through the air with the greatest of ease Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

Community - When JoAnne Matthie of Renfrew was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2000, she wasn’t surprised. She knew she had mild symptoms since her 20s.

By 2013 Jo-Anne was only able to walk a little, with the help of a walker or cane.

Holding her grandson, born in 2011, without assistance seemed impossible, let alone going on walks and playing hockey on the driveway or living room with him.

Then in July of 2013 a miracle happened. Matthie suddenly, and with no explanation, started to feel better.

She still has MS afflictions, but only minor, compared to what she had gone through.

Today, Matthie not only plays with grandson River,

ANNUAL FLEA MARKET RUMMAGE SALE BAKE SALE

Hosted by GALETTA COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION Galetta Hall, 119 Darwin Street, Galetta

but also enjoys her passion for gardening.

On Sept. 27, she also did something else she could only dream about a decade ago – go skydiving.

At the age of 62, Jo-Anne made her first jump at Mile High Parachuting at Arnprior.

On a fittingly bright and sunny Saturday afternoon,

Matthie hopped onto a plane, leaving family and friends on the ground below, and returned to view 20-25 minutes later, gliding back down to earth in her parachute, attached to her instructor.

“That was great. I just loved it. Ya, it was wonderful,” Matthie said of her descent from 10,000 feet (three kilometres).

“I kept hearing that Crowbar song in my head, Oh what a feelin’, what a rush!”

Matthie also said she’d go again.

Above and beyond an experience of a lifetime, Jo-Anne also used the jump as an opportunity to raise awareness and funds to help those locally who are afflicted with MS.

There is a special kind of feeling, That is meant for you alone, A huge place in our hearts, That only you can own.

There will always be a heartache, And many a silent tear, But always precious memories, Of the days when you were here.

SAVARD, Lester “Les”
