News – Belleville – The City of Belleville announced a state of emergency late last week after rising water levels on the Moira watershed overtook the banks of the Moira River and caused widespread flood conditions throughout the villages of Foxboro and Corbyville.

As of the morning of Tuesday, April 15, Quinte Conservation staff say the water levels will remain high for at least the next week with further flooding possible.

“The rain we are experiencing now is causing lake and river water levels to rise again,” said Quinte Conservation Water Resources manager Bryon Keene on Tuesday morning. “Overnight rainfall Monday and the present downpour are contributing to rising levels in the headwater areas and this water still has to pass downstream. As we reported (Monday), precipitation has caused water levels on the northern Moira River tributaries, the Black and Skootamatta Rivers to rise again and that water will continue to flow downstream causing water levels to rise further in areas already flooded. Water levels on area lakes, including Stoco and Moira Lakes rose several centimetres overnight and will continue to rise in response to this rain. Water levels in flooded areas including Foxboro and Corbyville in the City of Belleville and the vicinity of Stoco Lake in the Municipality of Tweed are expected to continue to rise slowly and stay high for a week.”

Water levels on the Moira River have now exceeded levels found during flood events in Foxboro in 2008. As of Monday, Quinte Conservation had measured On Ashley Street in Foxboro Saturday, a line-up of volunteers, neighbours and city workers helped sandbag Barbara Kaiser’s home, where water was slowly rising the flow as 296 cubic metres per second to cover the backyard.

Entertainment – Belleville – Quinte Ballet School of Canada is extending its annual International Dance Day (IDD) celebration from Monday, April 28 to Thursday, May 1. This fun and free four-day community event will showcase presentations about famous and trendsetting dance choreographers, videos of this year’s international and Canadian spokespersons, the official reading of the IDD Canadian message, and to round off the week’s events, an enjoyable, easy hip hop workshop class open to ages 10 and older within the entire Quinte community.

Just bring your soft-soled shoes and comfortable clothes. No previous dance experience is required.

The public is invited to attend student presentations about some of the world’s most influential and renowned choreographers on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evening from 6 p.m. to approximately 6:30 p.m. in Studio E. Catherine Taylor, Artistic Director for QBSC, felt that a full week of IDD activities will create an opportunity for the dance students to broaden their knowledge about the artists and choreographers that have shaped the world of dance both in the 20th and 21st centuries.

The Hip Hop Workshop on Thursday, May 1 may well be the highlight of the week for many visitors. Led by Kareem Byfield, the talented Toronto-based choreographer, dancer, author and photographer is a long-term teacher in both divisions of the QBSC. His popularity with faculty and students stems from his enthusiasm and passion for his craft. He shares his energy and encouragement freely, maintaining the fun with a big smile and an abundance of charm.

International Dance Day is held every year on April 29 and was founded in 1982 by the Dance Committee of the International Theatre Institute to celebrate the creator of modern ballet, Jean-Georges Noverre (1727-1810). Dance organizations from around the globe pay homage to the art form by bringing people together with the universal language of dance, crossing political, ethnic and cultural barriers.

This year, Canada’s IDD spokesperson is Santee Smith, choreographer, dancer and Artistic Director of Kaha:Wi Dance Theatre.

Quinte Ballet School of Canada has been an active part of our not-for-profit business community for over 40 years, nurturing students in their goals of dance through professional and recreational divisions. Take this opportunity to tour the facility and meet the students and professional staff that make the school a success. For more information visit www.quinteballetschool.com or call 613-962-9274. The Quinte Ballet School is located at 196 Palmer Rd., Belleville.

Minister of Finance Charles Sousa stops by Quinte West

By Kate Everson

News – Quinte West – Ontario’s Minister of Finance Charles Sousa had a meeting with local business leaders and the mayor at Quinte West City Hall on Monday, April 14.

“I’m going across the province (to talk) about the budget, to explain what’s coming up,” Sousa said.

Quinte West Councillor Jim Harrison said the funding for infrastructure would be great for the $70-million wastewater plant on the city agenda for the next few years. “This is our biggest project,” he said. “It’s shovel ready. The timing is perfect.”

Mayor John Williams noted the $70 million wastewater plant is planned to be completed in stages. He took Sousa upstairs to show him and former MPP Lou

Rinaldi the plans for the marina, which the province has already funded for $4 million and is in the works for this spring.

“As soon as we got the

“As soon as we got the Environmental Assessment we got the money.”

Environmental Assessment we got the money,” he said.

Sousa said the government is making money available for infrastructure across the province and plans to spend $29 billion over the next 10 years for priority investment projects.

The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area is expected to get $15 billion of that, with the

remaining $14 billion for the rest of the province. He said priority projects will include roads, bridges, transportation and public transit “and other critical infrastructure.”

The city has applied for funding from the province twice for its $70 million wastewater plant but was turned down in favour of other municipalities.

“What is more critical than wastewater?” Harrison asked.

Sousa said the funds will be dedicated to help support infrastructure projects that will spur economic growth and job creation, without raising taxes for low and middle-income earners and without raising taxes on gasoline or HST. “This is a dynamic business climate,” he said. “Ontario is open for business and more

opportunities.”

Sousa said the province is gradually going to “stop being landlords” and while he would not say the government is going to sell its biggest money-makers – Ontario Hydro, Ontario Power Generation and LCBO – he did say it’s going to try to get better returns for its money through restructuring and reinvesting.

“Ontario is doing well,” he said.

Despite a $11.3-billion deficit, Sousa said the government is on the path to balancing the budget by 2017-18.

He blamed the federal government for redirecting more funding to other provinces. He said the province is taking measures for austerity and investing in economic recovery.

Belleville residents preparing to clean up the city

By Steve Jessel

R0012653622

News – Belleville – For the past 13 years residents of Belleville, Tyendinaga and Quinte West have gathered in April for the annual Quinte Trash Bash, but City of Belleville Green co-ordinator Melanie Morrish said there’s something a little different happening in 2014.

“We haven’t changed our format so much, but what’s changed for us is that the community is really grabbing (the event) this year, which caught us kind of by surprise,” Morrish said. “We’ve been trying to get the community invested year after year, and they have, but this year people have really seemed to jump on and taken ownership of it.”

Taking place on April 26 this year in Belleville, the annual event tasks residents to clean up garbage in their community for just one day of the year. Participants are given supplies like nitrile gloves, work gloves, garbage bags, and clear or white bags for recyclables, and then are let loose on their respective cities.

“People can choose where they want

to go, sometimes they have spots that they’re very passionate about,” Morrish said. “Other people come to us and say ‘send us wherever we’re needed.’ A lot of people prefer to stay in their own neighbourhood but it’s a real mish-mash.”

The recent jump in committed participants in Belleville is thanks to a second-year leadership class at Quinte Secondary School, Morrish said. The students in the class have taken it upon themselves to contact other area schools to invite more students to take part, and Morrish said they’ve now organized a tie-in event on Friday, April 25.

“For us, that’s an explosion (of participation) ... We’ve always tried to have the schools more involved so we’re very happy with that,” Morrish said.

Last year roughly 800 people took part across the three cities. Morrish said they’ve had as many as 1,000 in the past, but the turnout depends largely on the weather the day of. Belleville managed to fill two driveway-sized dumpsters with collected trash last year.

“When we started, when we gathered with Quinte West and Tyendinaga our goal was to say ‘wouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t have to sit at this table, and litter was picked continually’.” Morrish said. “We’ve kind of changed that goal. Our goal now is to come back year after year, whether we have 20 people or 5,000, and we just run it every year.”

In Belleville, residents are asked to first register at City Hall starting at 9 a.m., where they’ll be given their supplies and instructions. Residents can pick garbage between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m., and are asked to bring their collected garbage to the dumpsters at East Riverside (across from the Yardmen Arena) or at Bridge and Sidney streets (near the fairgrounds.)

Residents can also contact organizers and arrange for curbside pick-up if they lack transportation. Residents are asked to stay away from rivers and any dangerous garbage (needles, condoms, heavy furniture). Dangerous waste can be flagged for removal by city staff at a later date.

News – Belleville – Garbage and litter of all kinds on private properties throughout Belleville and the former Thurlow Township will come under scrutiny when council passes a new bylaw “to provide for the maintenance of land in a clean and clear condition.”

The bylaw was originally scheduled to be passed last Monday, but was tabled until the next meeting when some members of council felt the enforcement provisions were not clear enough.

Clauses include the bylaw shall mean “the removal and proper disposal of refuse and waste material of any kind from any land within the boundaries.” Costs for such removal shall be borne by the landowner. Specific items include boats, motor vehicles or any machines which are not operable, also rubbish, trash and litter.

The bylaw presented Monday left many decision on enforcing the bylaw’s terms to the discretion of the enforcement officers, but council was not satisfied with such obscure terms.

Also at the April 28 meeting, council is expected to pass its bylaw to confirm the 2014 budget and tax rates.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Harper’s message is “Say Goodbye to your CBC�

for visually and hearing impaired citizens as it would criminalize them for circumventing digital locks on any digital materials they have purchased. This means they would be unable to convert them to braille, audio or other accessible formats used by people with other disabilities. I believe that the Internet should be open and accessible to all Canadian citizens.

The TPP is another US-backed deal that will undermine Canada’s national rules. When our rules were finalized in 2011, they were considered a victory for both creators and citizens - but the TPP could reverse the progress made by our elected decision-makers. The TPP includes many US-backed provisions that would benefit outdated media conglomerates at the expense of our own well-balanced copyright laws. Canada needs to stand up for a free and open Internet.

I encourage each and every Canadian to learn more about the TPP at OpenMedia. org/Censorship.

while CBC is still broadcasting so these methodical, incremental steps to cripple CBC will continue as long as Harper has a majority government handed to him by only 39 per cent of the population of Canada. We are witnessing the destruction of a national institution, which ties this country together like the railway used to unite Canadians. It will be a dark day indeed when CBC is forced to close its doors entirely and that day is coming. Sincerely, Alan Coxwell Stirling

Testy budget battle

CBC funding saw 800 jobs lost. Again in the 2012 budget CBC’s funding was decreased by another $115 million, leading to the loss of 650 jobs. In the 2011 federal election Harper promised Canadians the CBC would be fully funded and suggested Conservatives would increase support for our National Broadcaster. He has done exactly the opposite of what he promised Canadians.

Conservatives have forced CBC’s Radio 2 to start running ads. Money for new programs has been severely restricted.

The only option left is to repeat programs over and over again to fill airtime. Such moves naturally decrease listenership. It is a death spiral which the Conservatives plan to complete over the next few years.

All good dictators know they need to control the message the people are allowed to hear. Harper cannot accomplish this

in a well-scripted message which lamented the loss of 657 creative, highly skilled reporters, program directors, producers and writers. In Harper’s world it appears only jobs in the oil sands and related extraction industries are worth supporting.

Forget music, art and culture. Just help the Chinese and other hungry world powers suck all of the oil out of Canada’s tar sands as fast as they can. Who gave Hubert Lacroix his job as President of CBC? None other than Stephen Harper. So, whose message is Lacroix delivering? Canadians know all scripts for public consumption come from the Prime Minister’s Office.

Dear Editor, Canada’s evangelical/Reform Conservative Party led by Stephen Harper spends millions of our tax dollars on Action Canada ads telling us how great they are at creating jobs. Almost $15 million of our tax dollars went to this thinly disguised propaganda last year alone. Last week, in sharp contrast to their claims of job creation, Conservatives killed another 657 jobs at CBC. What we are witnessing is the classic “Death by 1,000 cuts� and Harper is about half way through his program to silence the CBC because he cannot control the message CBC delivers per their mandate as our independent National Broadcaster. CBC President Hubert Lacroix delivered the latest bad news

OPINION

By Terry Bush

Seymour Hersh strikes again

Editorial - Why would anyone believe Seymour Hersh? True, he’s the Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter who broke the story of the massacre committed by US Army troops at My Lai in 1968 during the Vietnam War, and revealed the torture and sexual humiliation of Iraqi prisoners by US military police at Abu Ghraib prison in 2004. But he’s Gwynne Dyer getting old (77), and he’s a freelancer, and he won’t even disclose the name of his key informant.

Whereas the US government has hundreds of thousands of people working for it just gathering and analysing intelligence, and the American media are famed worldwide for their brave defence of the truth no matter what the cost. Besides, has the US government ever lied to you in the past?

So we obviously should not give much credence to Hersh’s most recent story. It alleges that the poison gas attack in Damascus last August that killed more than a thousand people, and almost triggered a massive US air attack on Syria, was not really carried out by Bashar al-Assad’s tyrannical regime (which the US wants to overthrow) It was, Hersh says, a false-flag operation carried out by the rebel Al-Nusra Front with the purpose of triggering an American attack on Assad. If you can believe that, you would probably also believe his allegation that it was the Turkish government, a US ally and NATO member, that gave the jihadi extremists of al-Nusra the chemicals to make sarin (nerve gas) and the training to carry out the mass attack in Damascus.

Hersh even says that it was General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, who told President Barack Obama just days before the American strikes on Syria were due to start that the evidence was not strong enough to justify an American attack on the Syrian regime.

The rest of the story we already know. Obama post-

poned the attack by deciding, quite suddenly, that he had to get Congressional support for it. Then he cancelled it entirely once the Russians gave him the facesaving alternative of getting Assad to hand over all of his chemical weapons for destruction. There is no chance of an American attack on Syria now. But could Hersh’s back-story be true?

By last August it was clear that Assad’s regime would eventually win the civil war unless there was some radical change in the situation (like an American bombing campaign against it). So Assad’s survival depended on not giving the United States any reason to attack him.

Barack Obama had already said that any use of poison gas by the Syrian regime would cross a “red line” and trigger an American attack. In mid-August there were United Nations inspectors in Damascus to look into two much smaller attacks earlier in 2013 that seemed to involve poison gas. And we are asked to believe that at that precise moment Assad thought it would be a neat idea to kill one or two thousand innocent civilians in the city with poison gas.

So who did it? The obvious question to ask was: Who stands to benefit from this attack? The answer was certainly not Assad. He would not have done this unless he was stupid, and being wicked does not make you stupid. Whereas the rebels had every reason to do it, in order to suck American firepower in on their side.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey’s prime minister for the past 11 years, has backed the Islamist rebels in the Syrian civil war from the start, and he will be in deep trouble if they lose. They will lose, unless either Turkey or the United States comes to their aid militarily. Erdogan would obviously rather have the US Air force do it rather than his own armed forces. So he had a good motive for giving the rebels the poison gas.

Hersh says that he has been told by a former senior official in the US Defense Intelligence Agency that that is what happened. You can read the details on the website of the London Review of Books. And yes, he’s old, but that just means he has been getting it right about a lot of different things for a long time.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Trade agreement is not in our interests Dear Editor Despite strong opposition in Canada, Australia and New Zealand, this secretive agreement is forging ahead, behind closed doors, a trademark of this Conservative government. Canada was allowed to join these negotiations in October 2012.

Behind its deceptive ‘Trade Agreement’ title it seems that only two of TPPA’s 20 chapters actually have anything to do with trade. From the limited facts that have emerged about this secretive pact, it appears that it will grant new privileges to already powerful US and multinational corporations. Protecting US intellectual property rights and enforcing more control of the Internet are top agenda items. The pact apparently focuses on ensuring enforceable corporate rights, while increasing constraints on governments. It will even limit the way governments can spend their own tax dollars!

From the scant information presently available, it would seem that adoption of the TPPA would mean a future of extensions to high priced drug patent monopolies and increased corporate rights to attack government drug pricing plans. Guess what that will do to our health care system?

Proposed safeguards for sending jobs off-shore or bringing in foreign labour and added corporate con-

trol over our natural resources, already in jeopardy because of Bill C-38’s destruction of government and environmental influence over resource extraction, are other TPPA articles that are not in Canada’s interests.

If fully implemented, the TPPA will apparently reduce the ability of governments to warn their citizens of the dangers of cigarette smoking.

These TPPA negotiations are yet another disturbing example of the still growing pattern of secretive, unaccountable and undemocratic practices utilized by the Harper Conservatives. Their actions are completely opposite to the transparent government they promised prior to election. This pattern clearly evidences their arrogance and contempt for Canadians and endangers our democracy. Not only can they not be trusted, remember this at election time folks, but they are downright dangerous and put our future existence at risk.

This is another issue that we should bring strongly to the attention of our sitting member, Rick Norlock and ask him to allay our fears. But, perhaps he has no information either, which could be why he fills his taxpayer-financed circulars with apple pie issues, photo ops and thinly disguised party propaganda.

Editorial – On Saturday, Harper’s main attack dog John Baird was at it again, threatening more sanctions against Russia. It’s not surprising in the least that the Harper government is once again echoing the US party line. Most would be surprised if they didn’t.

At one point in time, our policies weren’t always in lockstep. We sided with the Americans when it made sense to do so and when it didn’t, Canadians had their own point of view. Those days are apparently long gone. Israel, Syria, the Palestinians, Libya, Iran, Afghanistan, Egypt, you couldn’t slip a piece of paper between their foreign policy and what passes for ours. If one harkens back to the days of Ronald Reagan, Mikhail Gorbachev and the breakup of the Soviet Union, one of the deals supposedly in place was, if Gorbachev allowed the reunification of Germany, he was promised that NATO wouldn’t expand into the former states of the Soviet Union. Gorbachev genuinely seemed like a pretty good guy compared to other Soviet/Russian leaders past and present but he was perhaps a little too trusting.

That particular agreement wasn’t worth the paper it wasn’t written on and the US began quickly chipping away at the former Soviet satellites, expanding NATO closer and closer to the borders of Russia. They were, in effect, building a wall around the country. Russia was not pleased.

As its power waned and NATO continued to encroach on its territory, Russia was even more displeased with the shenanigans backed by the US and European Union.

So when neocon Victoria Nuland recently admitted to some of the US’s destabilizing efforts in an intercepted phone call and also admitted that the US had spent $5 billion trying to get the right kind of government in Ukraine, right being one that would kowtow to Washington, Russia was incensed. When the west’s extreme right wing Nazi collaborators overthrew the Ukrainian government, Russia had enough. It had been propping up Ukraine for years with loans and cheap natural gas and it wasn’t about to lose a major naval port in the Crimea it had already leased.

Considering the Crimea was part of Russia until Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev gave it away in the 1950s, Russia wasn’t about to sit idly by when 60 per cent of Crimea’s population considered themselves Russian.

So after what may or may not have been an actual referendum, Crimea was annexed and Putin became the devil incarnate in the western world, a title more than a few Russians had already bestowed upon him.

Western nations were incensed that he would do such a thing, the same western nations who knew darn well what the US was up to trying to unseat a Russia-leaning, corrupt, but democratically elected government in Ukraine.

One might wonder where the same fury was during the mass protests in the country of Bahrain just a couple of years ago. That country is ruled by a monarchy, read dictatorship, and is fully backed by

the west considering it’s home to the US Navy’s 5th fleet. When the majority Shia protesters complained about their lack of representation in the minority Sunni kingdom, the Saudis came in to help put down the demonstrations. Hundreds were killed and thousands tortured but while western nations tsk, tsked, the word sanctions was never uttered. After all, this country possessed a port vital to US interests ... the same as Crimea does for the Russians. The US blamed the unrest on the usual scapegoat, Iran.

While, Canada, the US and Britain loudly boo Putin, many in Europe are much more pragmatic. While they don’t care for Putin, a dictator in his own right, they also realize that poking the bear isn’t in their best interests. While trade with Russia may be somewhat insignificant in North America, except for the Russian vodka some would like pulled off the shelves, the same can’t be said for much of Eastern Europe that depends on Russian natural gas.

Russia also controls many of the supply routes the US depends on to get goods to its troops in Afghanistan.

If push comes to shove, Russia will not be swayed from what it thinks is right, no more than the US would be. While Russia and the west do share some values, one should not be tempted to think they’re the same people. A quick look at Russian history might lead a person to believe that Russians are a very nationalistic people who would not be averse to enduring some hardship in the face of western pressure.

The more the west pushes, the more the Russians will consider their other alliances, in particular the BRICS countries, which include Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa with states such as Iran sitting on the sidelines hoping for membership. Those countries have already expressed concern over Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop’s comment that Putin should be barred from attending the G20 Summit in November.

Recent revelations that China and Russia are considering dumping the US dollar as the world reserve currency should be cause for concern throughout the western world especially if other BRICS nations follow suit. That would affect us all. Rumours that China will re-open the old Silk Road as a trading route between China and Germany, the EU’s economic engine, should also give one pause.

Considering that China with its major US debt holdings could pull the rug out from under the US at any given time, maybe the US should take a minute and think before constantly threatening the rest of the world. Empires don’t last forever and the US’s power is definitely waning. The public may not like Putin but they don’t want another war especially when both countries have nukes.

As for Canada, one would hope our country would continue to speak out for human rights around the world. And if our allies need a good tongue lashing from time to time, they should be called to task as well. Otherwise we look like hypocrites on the world stage.

An event just for mothers

By Steve Jessel

News – Belleville – Mother’s Day isn’t for a few weeks yet, but in Belleville on April 26 a pair of local moms are making sure that mothers have an event just for them.

The Everything Mom Event is the brainchild of a pair of local mothers, Tiffany Cosco of Frankford and Kim Reid of Belleville, and aims to provide a one-stop shop for all the different products and services a mom might need for their child over the early parts of their life. Cosco, a mother of three young children, said that while she and most moms she knows don’t mind driving to different services and businesses, they can’t find them if they don’t know that they’re there.

“It’s not even knowing that (the services) are there,” Cosco said. “Because our area is quite

widespread – I live in Frankford and (Reid) lives in the east end of Belleville – there’s so much in between, and all we hear from moms is ‘I didn’t know this was available.’ There was an absence of knowledge in the community.”

The Everything Mom Event looks to fill that void by providing mothers with resources and information about the services and products offered in their local community. Cosco said she and Reid have been “overwhelmed” by the response from moms, vendors and support organizations interested in taking part in the event, to the point where they have officially run out of space and are actively turning new organizations and businesses away.

“We’re going on the theory that it takes a village to raise a child,” Cosco said. “It seems like

Build Belleville is full speed ahead When it came time to present Coun. Jenkins’ motion, it could not get a seconder so it lost automatically with no further discussion.

While council worked its way through the agenda, it was obvious the thoughts of many remained on the flood situations in the city’s north end and Thurlow Ward.

Mayor Neil Ellis made a point of reviewing the many hours city staff and other employees had spent over the past few days helping those

affected by the rising waters and asked city staffer Aaron Bell to show a video of what had been happening.

That video detailed efforts by some 600 volunteers from many parts of Ontario, averaging 60-plus hours each, some 70 houses threatened and 900,000 kilograms of sandbags filled and placed.

He said both city staff and Hastings County staff were involved and added: “To all those who helped, thank you.”

News – Belleville – If anyone has second thoughts about the Build Belleville project besides Coun. Jodie Jenkins, it was not evident at City Council Monday.

Coun. Jenkins had served notice of motion at the last council meeting March 24 that he would introduce a motion at the next meeting: “That the present council delay making any commitment relative to the Downtown portion of Build Belleville which would bind the incoming mayor and council.”

That announcement, well covered in ensuing days, apparently triggered many alarm bells. At least seven deputations addressed council Monday in the Sports and Wellness Centre, a temporary arrangement pending repairs to the City Hall elevator. Backgrounds and ages were different, but the message was consistent: Council must continue to proceed as quickly as possible with all phases of the downtown redevelopment and other aspects of the Build Belleville program.

Speakers included representatives of vested business interests like the Downtown Business Improvement Association, the Bay of Quinte Regional Tourism Council and even representatives from Loyalist College.

Lise Rouleau is an entrepreneur who left Belleville for nearby Prince Edward County. “When I heard about the “Build Belleville project, I returned here,” she said, expressing an interest in becoming an entrepreneur in a revitalized downtown.

Edie Haslauer, chair of the Belleville Downtown Business Development Association, said she commended “council’s vision,” and urged them to “keep moving forward.”

Loyalist student Clara Quinn recounted how her family’s roots are in the community and she wants to make a career in Belleville. Mayor Neil Ellis praised her presentation and its “passion.”

Bob Millard, Clara’s teacher and head of business and promotion studies at Loyalist, argued that moving ahead with the project could generate millions of dollars in new business and would help in retention of local youth in the business community.

Longtime business, Finkle Electric, was represented by Paula Finkle, who said the need for underground services to allow future development is “critical.”

She said these are “exciting” times for Belleville and urged council “not to lose the momentum.”

She was supported by Ryan Williams of the Bay of Quinte Regional Tourist Council and also involved with the Economic Development Commission. He supported all of the ideas from previous speakers even as a north end businessman (Best Western Hotel) and said, “We send lots of people downtown. That is where lots of things happen.”

CARRIER OF THE MONTH!

moms in Trenton maybe don’t know about Family Space in Belleville or, for example, both (Reid) and I gave birth with a midwife in the hospital, so we hear a lot of people saying, ‘well we didn’t know midwives could help you give birth in a hospital, we thought it was only in-home’.”

The event will include seminars from Quinte Midwives, Naturopathic Doctor Kristi Prince, Doula Michelle Stroud and chiropractor Jason Young, while roughly 50 booths will contain representatives from a wide range of groups and services.

“The main purpose is that we want to inform the moms,” Cosco said. “We want to equip them with information.”

The organizers are also participating in the Great Cloth Diaper Change during the event, which promotes the use of reusable diapers.

The free event takes place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 679 Dundas Street W., Belleville on April 26.

in staff preparing a bylaw establishing rates for dog licences and authorizing their sale by veterinarians who can earn a $5 fee per sale.

The fee schedule includes $60 for kennel, discounts for purchasing tags before the start of the year and a discount for a spayed or neutered dog to $15, compared to $22.50. A tag to replace a deceased dog is also offered at $5. Guide dogs are exempted and fees are reduced for people buying a dog licence after Sept. 30.

A lengthy and detailed bylaw to govern keeping yards clean of junk and debris was tabled to allow further input or amendments from staff to meet concerns by council of too many “ambiguities.”

In other business, Coun. Tom Lafferty raised the issue of trains, expressing that often a large number of cars carrying oil or unknown substances travel at high speed through the city. Council voted to send a letter to federal government officials outlining their concerns.

A Deerfield subdivision resident, Adam Gosney, made a presentation concerning undue speed by motorists in a busy subdivision with many small children, arousing concerns by many parents. He asked for a reduced limit to 40 kilometres per hour, but agreed that any help would be welcome. Council said it would look into an electronic sign which advises motorists of their speed, and maybe some special signs about children playing.

Night Kitchen Too, take two

By Steve Jessel

Entertainment â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Belleville â&#x20AC;&#x201C; After a highly successful opening act Bellevilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newest music showcase is gearing up for a second run next Saturday, and co-producer and MC Joe Callahan said thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no shortage of local skill and talent ready to impress audiences at the Pinnacle Playhouse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s community music, is the way I like to characterize it,â&#x20AC;? Callahan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really want to be accessible to everybody and we want to provide musicians an opportunity to get in front of an audience.â&#x20AC;?

Fourteen local music acts, from slam poets to a capella singers will take the stage during the second edition of Night

Kitchen Too, a new show for local musicians that held its first event in Belleville on March 15 to a nearly sold-out audience. The concept is borrowed from Wolfville Nova Scotia, and sees each act (aside from the headliner) play for just five minutes, roughly the length of one song. Callahan said it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always easy for a musician to leave their mark with audiences with such a short set, but the idea is to give as many artists an opportunity as possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to give them access to audiences... and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also giving Belleville audiences a chance to see some of the talent thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the area,â&#x20AC;? Callahan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just more talent out there than you can imagine and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really neat to

give them a place to play.â&#x20AC;?

Headlining the April 26 show is Paul King, a blues, folk and swing musician originally from the Kingston area. Other acts scheduled to take part alongside King and Callahan (who also performs) include Belleville guitarist Eugene Deline, musician and singer Eric Baragar, county folk artist Peter VanNuis, Loyalist student and musician Bobby Finkle, and a host of others. Admission for the

event is $10 for adults and $5 for students, and proceeds are split between the musicians. Callahan said that amounted to about $20 per artist the first time out, or enough to cover travel expenses to the venue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to keep it fun - nobody is going to get rich at this thing I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think, but it is a good night of fun entertainment,â&#x20AC;? he said.

New for the April 26 show is an ear-

lier start time to avoid conflicts with other city events on the same night. The next Night Kitchen Too show starts at 5 p.m. at the Pinnacle Playhouse in downtown Belleville, and runs until about 7:30 p.m. Callahan said participating musicians usually stick around for a jam session after the performances are finished. Tickets can be purchased in advance at Harmony Music Plus, Pinnacle Music and Ardens Music.

Police searching for stolen vehicle News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Belleville Police are searching for a stolen vehicle, last seen on Hwy. 62 where it was apparently involved in a gas theft just after midnight Monday.

School board holds Pink Shirt Day

When the Rock Acres Peace Festival invaded Queensborough

some of them still around or making a comeback,” said Lees. “Our Entertainment – Thomasticket outlets were Sam the Reburg – On a “perfect” August cord Man stores across Canada, weekend in 1971 the hamlet of but we started advertising in the Queensborough was visited by US. We had people there from large throngs of music fans, flowGermany, Scotland, England, er children and hippies, drawn by many European states and there the Rock Acres Peace Festival. were quite a few Americans. It The Central Hastings News had ended up after the festival that I helped to place a lot of draft dodgers. They came up for the festival and just stayed. Most of them ended up out west.”

It is notoriously difficult to accurately judge the size of large crowds in such settings, but an August, 1971 Ottawa Times report cited a prediction of 20,000 people at the event, and Mr. Lee thinks the number may have been significantly higher. Some people at the time referred to the festival as “Canada’s Woodstock.” Al Houston, a Tweed area resident who at the age of 17 worked security at the event, believes there were at least 10,000 present.

“We built our own sanitation Rick Lees of Thomasburg shares memories and momentos of the 1971 Rock Acres facilities, just outhouses along Peace Festival, which attracted many thousands of counter cultural music lovers to long trenches,” said Lees. The a chance to speak with Rick Lees of Thomasburg, who helped Jim and Leon Quinlan and their father Jim organize the rock music festival, held on the family’s 200 acre farm a few kilometres west of Queensborough.

stage was rough-built and rustic, built on the ledge of a rock to prevent people from rushing the stage. Three stages were in use to provide continuous music with one band playing while the next set up and the previous band tore down equipment. Festival goers camped in tents or trailers, and many cooked their own meals although food was available at concession stands as well.

“Food wasn’t really the big concern,” said Lees with a grin.

Indeed, a range of illegal substances, many of them psychedelic, as well as alcohol were widely available, according to all reports. No serious drug reactions or injuries were reported during the festival, although some people did require medical attention.

According to the Ottawa Times’s account, “the Ontario Hospital Services Commission set up a hospital geared to serve a population of 50,000.”

Mr. Lees added “there was also a helicopter there to fly anybody out if needed. We only had to fly one person out and that was

a young pregnant woman who went into labour.”

Organizers had to fight a court injunction by Madoc Township and Hastings County against the festival which, with the pro bono help of a father and son team of lawyers from Toronto, they won, allowing the festival to proceed, reported Lees. There was no significant damage to the property afterwards and people were very good about cleaning up after themselves he noted.

A fascinating aspect of the weekend was the descent of hordes of counter culture youth on the small, peaceful hamlet of Queensborough.

Houston was living in Queensborough at the time and worked security for the weekend. “All the hippies came to the dam to swim and the townspeople couldn’t believe it, seeing all these nude and topless people swimming. They weren’t too impressed,” he observed.

Queensborough residents were impressed, however, with the manners of their visitors,

who asked permission to swim at the dam from its private owners.

Other Queensborough residents who experienced the weekend speak of the politeness of the festival goers, with one reporting some hippies gently declining an offer of grilled hamburgers. After the event local business owners asked organizers, “When are you going to do it again?”

The arrival of an unknown number of bikers on Saturday night affected the general mood and with possible trouble brewing between bikers and local boys, by noon on Sunday the number of campers had thinned out greatly, reported Houston.

“Up until then it was an excellent weekend with lots of good feelings of peace and love,” he said, adding, “I never did get paid.”

Houston did get into the festival for free, however, and avoided the $12 admittance fee.

Downtown project pleases large crowd at open house

By Jack Evans

News – Belleville – At the second Open House for the downtown project Build Belleville Wednesday evening, design ideas to spruce up the downtown core started to come together.

The designs, as presented by

consultant firm ORE, seemed to be a crowd pleaser for another large crowd for the massive project. Earlier concerns to allay the impact on businesses and parking were reinforced. While the new plan will reduce on-street parking in the downtown core by about

15 spots, additional parking will be created on off-street lots.

The esthetic design of focussing on major intersections, carriageways and in front of City Hall with wide-street concepts, heritage-style brick surfaces, bicycle racks and benches and

new antique flavoured lighting will create a “sense of place,” the designers proclaimed, and the comments from the crowd agreed.

The plan also is to make more use of an enhanced riverfront area for park space and parking

at the rear of Front Street.

While Front Street was the focus of the design to date, it also embraces Victoria Avenue, Campbell, Bridge, Market and McAnnany streets, plus a section around the Upper Bridge.

Another Open House will be

held within the next two months to show final design concepts based on further public input, the consultants assured.

Work is also progressing on design for new underground services, specifically sewer and water.

News – Belleville – It was Pink Shirt Day across the Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board on Wednesday, where students and staff joined together to encourage inclusivity and acceptance and say “no” to bullying and all forms of hatred.

“It was a tremendous success this year,” said board communications officer Kerry Donnell.

“With many of our schools having Twitter accounts now they happily sent out photos of students and employees wearing their pink t-shirts, and there was just a lot of enthusiasm and a great response to pink shirt day this year.”

This marked the second year that the day has been supported board-wide. The event was started by students and teachers at Trenton High School in 2009.

“They’ve been the driving force since then,” Donnell said.

“That year they sold about 80 t-shirts. This year we sold over 4,000 t-shirts across our school district.”

“We see this as an extension of our Growing with Character approach to teaching kids to be caring citizens, and to grow into contributing young people and adults.”

The theme for the day this year was “Erase the Hate” with t-shirts being decorated with a heart and the accompanying slogan. Donnell said hundreds of other students and staff across the board also showed their support

by wearing pink clothing items on Wednesday. Pink Shirt Day also falls in line with the board’s Growing with Character initiative, which strives to meet individual needs by providing conditions and interventions needed to help every student succeed, identify and eliminate barriers, contribute to high standards of student achievement, promote a sense of belonging which contributes to every student’s sense of well-being, and involve the community in efforts to remove barriers and prevent bullying.

“We see this as an extension of our Growing with Character approach to teaching kids to be caring citizens, and to grow into contributing young people and adults,” Donnell said. “We know that we can always do more to identify and eliminate barriers to promote a sense of welcome and belonging at all of our sites, and Pink Shirt Day is a way that we Students and staff at Prince of Wales Public School in Belleville joined schools across the region in wearing pink last Wednesday, as can help to do that.” part of the schools board’s annual Pink Shirt Day.

Quinte area theatre groups score awards from Drama League

Entertainment – Two major awards and several nominations were shared by Quinte area amateur theatre companies at the annual Eastern Ontario Drama League Spring Festival awards.

Host for this year’s awards ceremony was the Prince Edward Theatre Group who arranged a luncheon in Wellington on Sunday, April 6 with representation

of theatre groups from across Northumberland County to the Quebec border, including several from the Quinte area.

A precocious young Belleville student, Maija Thompson, scored the award for outstanding contribution by a student from a field of three nominees. Maija played the dual roles of Audrey and Sebastian in the Bellevlle

Theatre Guild’s recent production of “Leading Ladies.” She is also playing a major role in the guild’s current production, “Enchanted April.”

Another local award winner was Picton area stage veteran Pat Larkin, who won best actor in a major role from a field of four nominees. Larkin played Michael Novak in the Prince Ed-

ward Community Theatre’s “God of Carnage.”

The Belleville guild’s play “Leading Ladies” and its team won several nominations, including the adjudicator’s award for design, Linda Serres for best costuming, best visual presentation; Wendy Cardinal for female acting excellence and Nathan Mahaffy as Jack and Olivia in

best major role actor. Mahaffy is also currently in a major role in the “Enchanted April” show now running.

Prince Edward Players’ show “God of Carnage” also picked up nominations for best director, Bill McMahon; actress in a major role Cheryl Singer; design in various elements of theatre for program, poster and lobby dis-

play, an award for “doing a lot with a little” and an award for ensemble.

While up against stiff competition by companies in larger centres like Kingston, Ottawa and Peterborough, Belleville and other Quinte area theatre groups have traditionally showed solid success over many years in the annual awards program.

Belleville â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; It was a strong start to the annual YMCA Strong Kids Campaign at the Belleville YMCA of Central East Ontario on Thursday, where YMCA of Central East Ontario vice-president Dave Allen introduced Bill Glisky as campaign chair for the new year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When they asked me to do it I immediately said yes, there was no question in my mind,â&#x20AC;?

Glisky said.

The Strong Kids Campaign is a national YMCA campaign that raises funds to give lessprivleged children equal opportunities, such as attending programs at the YMCA or attending summer camp. The national campaign has set a goal

of $13 million for 2014, with the Belleville YMCA committing to raising $180,000 of that total. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This campaign goes directly to young people and gives them opportunities they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have otherwise,â&#x20AC;?

Glisky said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Especially in this day and age, we talk about issues with kids, and do they spend too much time on their phones or their Xboxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or whatever â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and this is a program that deals exactly with that, and gives kids a chance to go to camp, and gives them a chance to take advantage of the YMCA facilities.â&#x20AC;?

Last year the region (including Quinte West and Peterborough) raised more than $200,000 for the campaign.

The regional goal this year for the three communities is set at $365,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every year itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grown, and every year it has done better and better,â&#x20AC;? Allen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really is incredible to see when children come here from all walks of life, from all different backgrounds - we give them that sense of belonging, we help them become a part of something. We encourage them and teach them the values of caring, honesty, respect, responsibility and inclusivity.â&#x20AC;?

Funds raised from the campaign stay in the community they were raised in, to support local kids and YMCA programs. Allen said funds raised in 2012 helped send more than 2,000 kids to camp in Bel-

leville alone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It goes directly to the kids who wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to afford (camp),â&#x20AC;?

Glisky said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The YMCA is such a wonderful place for the things it brings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it brings a sense of community, of fellowship, it teaches people to be healthy ... It goes a long way to making us better people.â&#x20AC;?

Pond Hockey scores for TMH Foundation

News - Quinte West â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A pond hockey tournament at Batawa in January has scored big for the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have $15,000 for the Foundation,â&#x20AC;? said executive director Wendy Warner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will be spent in the urology department.â&#x20AC;?

She expressed gratitude that the 8 Wing hockey players were all volunteers, taking their spare time to contribute to the fundraiser for the third year.

Captain Jeff Moorhouse of 436 Squadron said the fundraising was shared with the Military Families Fund which also received $15,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had 26 teams participate,â&#x20AC;? Moorhouse said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Next year we hope to have four rinks

from compaction over years of farming.

Following a brief break for coffee and mufďŹ ns, Neave led the group outside to a nearby ďŹ eld where he had earlier dug a hole about one metre deep to show the layers of soil. Further ďŹ eld tests were done to determine soil composition and Neave urged the group to go home and conduct some test of their own.

A useful information source with plenty of answers to soil-related questions is the OMAFRA (Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs) website, he says, and can be a good starting point for other agricultural research.

Harvest Hastings Coordinator Louise Livingstone was pleased with the turnout and the response to the workshop, noting there was a great deal to be learned from an afternoon with a soil expert.

Handing around samples of soils, Neave asked participants to do a quick analysis of each to determine different levels of sand, clay and silt. The differing particle sizes makes separating them relatively simple, he explains, adding there are simple tests that can be done onsite to determine whether soil is clay, sand or silt based.

And there is nothing wrong with a little taste test. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the best ways to tell,â&#x20AC;? he says of the sand content in soil, noting the sand particles are the largest of the three and easily detectable with a tiny nibble.

Neave also discussed the importance of soil structure, crop rotation, weed management, drainage, and soil testing as well as improving fertility and reducing the damage that can result

SRPS to broaden taser training

By Richard Turtle

The path to vitality

I panicked...

My hair was thinning!

For a long time Christie had wanted to do something extra for her hair. She felt it appeared dull and was thinning.

Hair VolumeTM became her resource.

Read about Hair Volume™ Christie has worked in a pharmacy all her life. “Maybe that is why I was skeptical, when I first read about Hair Volume. I am always studying the declarations very carefully and there was something about this product,

which made me realize that it was special.”

Very positive experience “Today I have taken the Hair Volume tablets for 38 days and I can truly feel an improvement and less hair loss. My nails are also stronger and less grooved. All in all a very positive experience. I will definitely continue taking this product”, relates a happy Christie.

Dier noted, “I have a small bundle of responses on paper,” adding that among them there were arguments both for and against increased taser authorization.

Board members briefly discussed traffic concerns in the village and possible solutions to ensure safety, particularly around the Stirling Public School. While the decision would ultimately be made by council, PSB members agreed to make a request that council consider reducing the speed limit along West Front Street to 40 km/hr. as well as making Roscoe and Allan Streets one way to improve traffic flow

around the school.

In submitting the department’s annual report for 2013, Interim Chief Reive noted officers have been busier recently as a result of increased traffic but added crime statistics are not on the rise. Copies of the annual report are now available through the municipal offices.

Also in attendance at the meeting was former board chair Greg Oliver who remains unable to serve on the board pending notice by the Ontario Civilian Police Commission. Asked about a potential resolution, Oliver noted, “I still haven’t heard anything.”

major river crossing – all in just 24 hours. Bekker will compete as an individual athlete while Lindenberg and Walsh will compete as a relay team.

“When Wynand discussed putting together a team to accompany him on the Death Race, and knowing it was a fundraiser for the BGHF, I thought, sounds like fun, why not?” said Lindenberg.

The goal is to raise $100,000 for cancer care at Belleville General Hospital. People can support the runners by going to www. bghf.ca where an online fundraising page has been set up.

STORE HOURS: Monday thru Sunday 8:OOam - 10:00pm

The BGHF is also planning a local run to support the three men sometime in June.

“To have the three of them to compete in this race in support of cancer care at BGHF is an absolute blessing,” said BGHF fundraising co-ordinator Sue Rollins.

“It’s huge on their part for awareness and raising money.”

For more information, visit www.bghf.ca.

“All of us have or will be impacted by cancer in our lifetime which is why providing cancer care in the Quinte region has never been more important,” said sponsor, Eric Lehtenin, President of Impacto Protective Products Inc.

hristie encountered hair loss, which was very frustrating.

“I have tried many things before, but to no avail.”

News – Stirling – The number of Stirling-Rawdon police officers authorized to carry tasers is expected to increase from two to five in the coming weeks.

After taking public comments into consideration and discussing the matter internally, the Stirling-Rawdon Police Services Board voted to train two additional officers to carry the weapon. Interim Police Chief Christina Reive explained that two officers presently have authorization to carry the two devices owned by the department, while a third officer has completed the required training. She recommended an additional two tasers be purchased and all other officers trained in their use to eventually ensure at least one staff member on duty at all times would have access.

Tasers have been used by Stirling police twice in the past two years, Reive told the board.

After originally moving that the department maintain the status quo, board member Wilfred Shier amended his motion to allow the training of two more officers. Training required, Reive says, is about 12 hours per year.

“I think it was a good suggestion to get public input,” Shier said at the meeting, noting he had received eight written reports and two verbal ones all opposed to the expansion of taser use. Board Chair Tara

Cadet marksmen shoot with help of electronic targets

By Kate Everson

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Quinte West â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Even shooting a pellet riďŹ&#x201A;e has gone electronic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not your old BB gun and paper target any more,â&#x20AC;? said Captain Corey Lohnes at the CFB Trenton gymnasium with 105 cadets on Saturday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is all electronic scoring. The riďŹ&#x201A;es are able to shoot half a millimetre target.â&#x20AC;?

He said this is the ďŹ rst time the cadets have used this technology. The cadets were familiar with the riďŹ&#x201A;es but not the scoring which is recorded automatically on the screen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have some of the best marksmen from all over Ontario here today,â&#x20AC;? Lohnes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The regionals really narrow it down, with 105 out of 17,000 cadets in Ontario competing.â&#x20AC;?

In the nationals the following day, 15 cadets competed with air, sea and army cadets from across the country to win medals and trophies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is all ages, from 12 to 18 years old, male and female,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of our best marksmen is a 15-year-old girl from Alberta.â&#x20AC;?

He said the new technology makes it easier to compete across Canada without everyone having to come together.

They can post their results electronically. Each cadet gets 10 shots to record their score. Teams consist of ďŹ ve cadets including two juniors under 15. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so cool to embrace the technology,â&#x20AC;? Lohnes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is our ďŹ rst go. We just started three weeks ago.â&#x20AC;?

He noted that this training in marksmanship involves focus, concentration and self discipline. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives cadets the opportunity to attain lifelong skills,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The cadets train to slow their heart rate down while aiming to focus only on the target, despite other distractions like noise all around them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives them a sense of accomplishment,â&#x20AC;? he added.

Local cannabis advocate happy with court injunction

By Sue Dickens

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Campbellford â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;We won! We can keep growing! â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for now,â&#x20AC;? said Al Graham, a cannabis advocate who has been dealing with Crohnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Disease for over ten years and uses medical marijuana to get through each day.

He was responding to a decision by a Federal Court judge in Vancouver who granted an injunction allowing those who have a personal production licence to continue to grow medical marijuana for now.

This follows a period of angst by those having licenses to grow and to use medi-

cal marijuana as the new Health Canada rules that went into effect on April 1 allows a few companies to begin production of marijuana for licensed patients. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The government wants to remove our grow license and force us to buy from commercial growers. Some patients grow outside for $500 or less per year but now they will be forced to pay commercial prices that will cost them tens of thousands of dollars. When a person is making $12,000 or less on disability this becomes impossible,â&#x20AC;? said Graham. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Presently there are 11 licensed com-

mercial business approved but only three are fully running. These three cannot ďŹ ll the orders for everyone, thus a supply issue becomes a problem,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our goal was to have the judge render an injunction on the present Marijuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAAR) program until the new program can be segued in the courts on its constitutionality,â&#x20AC;? he explained.

Graham is a patient and a spokesperson for the grassroots advocacy group People Advocating Cannabis Education (P.A.C.E.) as well as a host, one of ďŹ ve,

on the The P.A.C.E. radio show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The medical marijuana program in Canada has been before the courts with numerous cases since it began in 2001.

Every time they lose and this latest injunction further shows that, after all these years, the government canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the program right,â&#x20AC;? said Graham. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This leads me to believe the only solution is to legalize it like wine and beer for everyone. Buy it at a licensed store or grow it yourself. In the end we collect some taxes and remove the ďŹ nancial support to gangs and criminal organizations.

Never mind the savings to our healthcare system,â&#x20AC;? he added.

Taking his beliefs to the streets, he attended a patient rally on Parliament Hill in Ottawa the day before the Health Canada regulations came into effect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a windy cold day but about 125 people showed up ... The small crowd could be expected, never mind theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sick ... and sick people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have extra money to travel,â&#x20AC;? he noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rally event organizers and speakers met with the press in the press gallery to

Annual wood carving show takes over QSWC

By Steve Jessel

News – Belleville – Competitors and spectators crowded into the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre Saturday for the largest woodcarving competition in Eastern Ontario, where nearly 300 competitors submitted their best and brightest pieces in hopes of taking home top prize in their respective categories.

Organized by the Quinte Wood Carvers’ Association, the 27th annual Quinte Wood Carving Championship is a oneday, annual event that regularly attracts more than 1,000 spectators each year.

Competitors submit pieces in four classes, four divisions and more than 20 categories during the show, where judges carefully inspect each entry for things like symmetry, detail and proper use of colour.

Longtime carver and Quinte Wood Carver’s Association member Serge Moisan said contestants come from all over Ontario for the event, from as far as Niagara and London, and that it seems to have a good reputation NATIONAL AIR FORCE MUSEUM OF CANADA among visitors as same carvers Tickets $100 each the seem to return year at the Trenton MFRC after year.

Together we are stronger!

“Wood is very forgiving – it’s a relaxing thing for me,” Moisan said, when asked what he loves most about carving.

Fellow Quinte Wood Carvers’ Association member Bob Trottier is one of the founding members of the group, and said that today they number around 60, meeting twice weekly to share tips and tricks and to hold and attend classes.

A woodcarver since 1987, Trottier said he started with ducks as most carvers do, but for the past few years has been focusing on carving seabirds, as he finds them more “graceful.” Ducks are a common subject for woodcarvers as the practice seemingly originated with historical duck hunters, who would carve “duck decoys” in order to attract their prey.

“It’s a chance to show creativity,” Trottier said. “It’s a good hobby because it challenges you, it makes you think.”

Trottier typically starts by finding an appropriate subject for a carving, then takes to the internet to find as much information as he can, including dimensional drawings and natural photographs of his subject. From there Trottier creates his own drawing of the subject before selecting a piece of wood – he said basswood and tupelo are the two most common woods used.

“From there, I carve away everything that isn’t bird,” he laughed.

Once a carving is complete, Trottier takes to painting the piece, which is

commonly required if the piece is going to be entered in a competition. Trottier said painting is something that gives a lot of carvers significant difficulty as it requires a completely different skillset. Trottier tends towards more muted colour schemes, as he said they look more natural.

“We have an expression – you either carve to paint or paint to carve,” he said.

“You want your carving to support the painting as much as you can.”

Trottier entered just one piece in the competition Saturday, as he said he had been too busy teaching with the club, which always welcomes more members.

talk about why we were holding the rally and how important our medicine is to people,” said Graham.

Veteran marijuana lawyer John Conroy, enlisted by the Marijuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAAR) Coalition Against Repeal, was present and spoke to the media and the gathering.

The federal government has said it would challenge any injunction that bars new rules requiring marijuana users to receive their supply from commercial growers.

Graham is happy with the injunction and glad to have an opportunity to talk about the matter, which remains before the courts.

“We are the victims not only because of our medical condition but also in the way our government portrays us and by telling our stories it helps to eliminate this stigmatization.”

Book launch brings together veterans and families

By Kate Everson

Events - Quinte West “This is a very special event,” said Robert Amesse of the Quinte West library as friends and family of the HMCS Trentonian gathered at city hall on April 12. It was the launch of Roger Litwiller’s book “White Ensign Flying” and the donation of the original cover painting to the library by Bayside artist Marc Magee.

At the event were veterans Bill Shields from Oakville, Gord Gibbons from Lindsay and Jim Erwin from Bancroft with their families. There were also families of deceased

crew members, Marion Lewis from Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan for the family of Lewis Murphy, the Glassco family of Colin Glassco, Commanding Officer of the HMCS Trentonian, the Dodd family of Donald Dodds, gunnery officer, and the Chadbolt family of George Chadbolt.

“Welome to the veterans,” Mayor John Williams said. He congratulated Roger Litwiller for a fantastic story. “It captures the people, what the guys went through,” he said. “Telling the story is really important.”

Cory of Trenton submitted the name Trentonia which was later changed to Trentonian by mistake, but the king had already signed it. He noted that citizens of Trenton were involved supporting the corvette and contributing everything from an accordion to a washing machine. Mrs. Cory christened the ship in Kingston before it went to sea.

MPP Rob Milligan commented, “It is truly an honour to be here.” He thanked Roger for encapsulating the memory and the stories. He said it is important to generations of Canadians to know what these people had to endure so that we enjoy the freedoms we have today.

Tom Riefesel, Chief Petty Officer of the Royal Canadian Navy, said the Battle of the Atlantic brought Canada to power during World War II with the efforts, tenacity and comradeship of the sailors. “We stand upon your shoulders today,” he said. “Service to Mayor John Williams and MPP Rob Milligan joined in the presentation with veterans Bill Shields, Jim Erwin and Gord Gibbons with author Roger Litwiller and Chief Petty Officer Tom Riefesel. Photo: Kate Everson one’s country is noble work.”

Robert Amesse introduced author Roger Litwiller, and noted that he got a lot of research right here in Trenton library with notes from Hazel Farley who was the town’s liaison with the ship and kept track of the local servicemen. “I am proud to have been able to assist Roger,” he said.

Roger Litwiller smiled, “What a day! This is an absolutely glorious celebration! I am absolutely shocked by the turnout today.”

He thanked the veterans whose action in 15 months has given our nation what it has today. “You have our gratitude,” he said.

He noted that Marc Magee’s painting of the HMCS Trentonian hung on his own wall for two years, but he is now donating it to the library so it can be shared with many.

Litwiller said the book started as a project to teach cadets. He became so involved it turned into 13 years of research for the book. He noted the

Litwiller thanked his wife Rhonda and children, who he dragged to archives on holidays. His one son joined the air force “but I still love him,” he smiled.

Litwiller also noted that the Battle of the Atlantic will be commemorated in Halifax with the construction of a massive four acre building to be built in the harbour by 2017. “This has to be done,” he said. “If we don’t do this, we let go of our history and sacrifice by Canadians.”

Peregrine falcon has valuable story to tell

Two bands, a singer, a great cause Entertainment - The evening of Friday, May 9 will see the culmination of the above- mentioned combination! These three elements will come together at the annual concert of the Trenton Citizens’ Band which is organized by the Lunch Bunch of King Street United Church in support of instrumental music programs in six local schools.

The format of the evening at King Street Church (100 King Street, Trenton) starts with dessert and beverage in the auditorium (6:30 p.m. - 7:15 p.m.) and is followed by the concert beginning at 7:30 p.m. in the beautiful sanctuary.

Together, our Citizens’ Band, the Jazz Rock Band from Trenton High School as well as soloist Holly Carroll will provide an awesome variety of music that evening.

The Trenton Citizens’ Band has been directed by Mr. Don Embree for eight years and is now in its 52nd year. The THS Jazz Rock Band is under the direction of Mr. Vince Thornton who has taught music at Trenton High for six years. This will be the debut Trenton performance

of Holly Carroll, a well-known singer who is now semi-retired in Trenton.

Numbers that will be performed by the Trenton Citizens’ Band include tunes from Broadway’s “Lion King”, “Cats” and “La Cage aux Folles”! As well, the band will play Don’s own arrangement of “Jerusalem”.

To recognize the significance of Honour Day, the band will play an original composition by Chris Embree titled “The Memory of His Smile”. Its poignant theme will be explained that evening.

Trenton High School’s band will feature jazz band arrangements of “The James Bond Theme” and “Another One Bites the Dust” by Queen.

Another highlight of the evening will be provided by guest singer Holly Carroll who brings with her many years of performing, starting with the Elmer Eisler Chorus in Toronto at the early age of 15 years. For many years, she performed on radio and television broadcasts including CBC’s “Juliet Show”. Holly was a nightclub singer for several years and has travelled around the world to perform. Before coming to Tren-

ton, she formed a music preparation company in New York City.

During the concert, her powerful soprano voice will be heard on numbers that include “Memory” from “Cats” and the “Shadow of Your Smile” which are most appropriate for mothers on this Mothers’ Day weekend.

Thus, the audience, after enjoying delicious desserts, will be entertained by two fantastic local bands as well as an amazing singer!

Our Trenton Citizens’ Band is going to have a very busy Friday, May 9th as they will perform at two Honour Day celebrations.

One will be in the morning at the Afghan War Memorial in Bain Park and they will play again at Quinte West City Hall in the early afternoon.

Trenton High School is performing an original ‘50’s themed musical titled “One for the Money” set to the music of Elvis from May 29 – 31.

Tickets for the May 9th event at King Street Church are only $8 (all students are free). They may be obtained by contacting a member of the Lunch Bunch, through the church office (613-392-5270) or at the door that evening.

News - Hastings – It’s a good news story that very nearly became one of the nature’s greatest man-made tragedies.

“The Peregrine Falcon is still the most highly studied species and bird on the planet even after 40 years of recovery programs in North America,” says Mark Nash, of the notfor-profit Canadian Peregrine Foundation he helped found in 1997 after a national breeding program closed and government funding was curtailed.

Nash visited Hastings Public School recently to talk about the remarkable bird’s “special story and plight.”

Not only is the Peregrine the fastest animal on the planet, clocked at over 400 miles per hour in swoops and dives, something the United States Air Force took notice of when it incorporated some of the bird’s features into its F-16 jet fighter, Nash says the bird has “given us a lot to history and more recently the DDT.” Because of “negative human intervention” in the form of the very effective, yet toxic, chemical insecticide DDT, the Peregrine was officially listed as “extirpated” in Ontario by 1980.

There was not one “producing pair” in the entire province,” Nash said in an interview.

But there’s been a blos-

soming of sorts in the species thanks to the banning of DDT in North America and the introduction of recovery programs.

“The good news for the Peregrine is that is has come off the endangered species list,” says Nash, “but it’s still a species at risk.”

The species’ recovery isn’t advanced enough to leave it to fend for itself.

There are between 84 and 86 “occupied territories” in Ontario today, says Nash.

“Whether there are one or two peregrines per territory or whether they’re breeding remains to be seen.”

The news is “very positive” but Nash still characterizes the numbers as “pathetically low” after a very expensive national recovery program in Canada.

“So it’s gone from zero to 80 plus pairs. We’re starting to see a great rebound attributed to a national recovery program in Canada, captive breeding and release, banning DDT, endangered species laws, a lot of education and a lot of other programs carried on with non-governmental organizations (NGOs). It’s been an accumulation of a lot of different things over 40 years.”

But cautious optimism is the watchword, says Nash.

“The species has a 90 per cent mortality rate to breeding age; (that’s) Mother Nature’s checks and balances control-

ling overpopulation of a species but Mother Nature never anticipated DDT which practically decimated the Peregrine in North America.

“The Peregrine, Bald Eagle and Osprey were our canary in a coal mine. They told us that story. Had it not been for the near demise of the species there’s a good chance we’d still be using (DDT) today,” said Nash.

The chemical is still being used in some South American countries to fight malaria.

“It really is a reliable monitor for the health of our environment, particularly our land mass because Peregrines eat exclusively other birds. Whatever is affecting the Peregrine is probably affecting humans.”

The Peregrine, says Nash, is “one of the top environmental monitoring superstars” which governments should be monitoring more closely because of what the species tells us about the world around us.

Wetland/Wildlife bus tours offered

Lifestyles - Everything you would like to know about wetlands and their wildlife is available on Wetland/Wildlife Bus Tours! On May 3, in the Belleville area, the Eastern Ontario Stewardship Collaborative is offering a free bus tour led by experienced guides to view fascinating wetland projects. Note the registration details below.

Wetlands are a tremendous resource, providing valuable services such as flood prevention, drought resilience, and wildlife habitat. In fact, our wetlands abound with exceptional biodiversity and they are teeming with life. Wetlands provide essential habitat for as many as 600 species of wildlife in Canada. Think of the classic image of our great blue heron gracefully soaring overhead. Numerous duck species as well as the elegant loon live and play in our ponds and wetlands.

This is an opportunity to learn

much more about birds, ducks and other wildlife residing in our wetlands. As part of the tours, our birding expert (with experience of 30 plus years) will conduct short birding forays on site.

The bus tour will visit several distinctive wetland projects and the tour guides will highlight the value of the projects and answer your questions. This is a chance for citizens to find out how to help protect this valuable resource. The tour guides are wetland professionals with backgrounds in ecology and conservation programming.

Many organizations including Ducks Unlimited, Conservation Authorities and Stewardship Councils are working to protect and enhance wetlands in our area. The tour guides can direct landowners to appropriate expertise and funding help for those interested in their own wetland projects.

Belleville Tour: On Saturday,

May 3, the bus tour by luxury coach departs from Belleville at 9 am. Participants will visit two excellent wetland project sites in Hastings and Prince Edward Counties. Other sites will be pointed out en route. The tour will take approximately three hours, and the bus will return to Belleville at about 12:30 p.m.

Note there is also a bus tour in the Kingston/L&A area on May 4. Contact EOSC (Lesley) for details.

Bring your rubber boots and be prepared for some walking and mucking about. Included in the tours are a wetland information package, snacks and drinks.

There is no charge for the tours; they are compliments of the Eastern Ontario Stewardship Collaborative. Registration is required

by April 25. For registration or more information, contact Lesley at 613-389-0418, ext. 131 or l_rudy@ducks.ca EMC Section B - Thursday, April 17, 2014 B5

A visit to the gardens and canals in China’s Suzhou

By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - While visiting China’s largest city, Shanghai, my wife and I decided to take a day trip to nearby Suzhou, a city renowned for its gardens and canals; after all, it’s often referred to as the “City of Gardens” and as the “Venice of the East”. It’s located just about 100 km. northwest of Shanghai, and it’s one of a series of water villages along the Yangtze River delta that contain several garden estates, narrow canals, and a plethora of arched bridges. However, we discovered that this water

village also had a population that was much larger than that of Toronto.

The highlight of our visit was our boat tour through the narrow canals themselves and under the many arched bridges. We took our excursion on a Monday, and it appeared to be wash day here. We saw several people washing clothes in the river itself and many freshly cleaned clothes were on display, drying in the sun. We also saw many Chinese lanterns on display as we glided along the way and we even saw a bride sitting on a

bridge in her wedding gown (this apparently was actually a model merely posing for photos rather than a bride at a real wedding). Residents who lived next to the waterway were able to literally shop from home, for they could simply lower baskets and purchase fresh produce directly from the passing boats.

We saw several skyscrapers including a large Holiday Inn along the Grand Canal before we entered the more intimate, narrow canal system and then these modern buildings suddenly vanished from our sight. We seemed to be quickly transported back in time, for we now encountered ancient buildings along the narrow canals, primarily white houses with black tiled roofs, along with stone bridges including one that was over 800 years old and wooden boats. The ride through the narrow canals was very peaceful, tranquil and, yes, it did remind me somewhat of Venice.

If we met another boat on these narrow streets, we had to proceed with great caution, as there was barely room to get by one another. The water itself appeared to be quite murky, too but the locals were using it for washing their clothes. I even saw a dead rat floating in the water.

Suzhou is also famous for its silk industry, so we went to a silk factory, too, where we not only saw the beautiful silk scarves, dresses, shirts, bedding, etc., but also learned about the entire process from silk worms, to cocoons, to the grading and boiling of cocoons, to the gathering of the thread and the making of the finished products. We also visited Suzhou’s

well known Tiger Hill, where the Yunyan Temple Pagoda has been a city landmark for over a thousand years; here we climbed the hill for an up close and personal view of what’s known locally as the Leaning Tower of Suzhou for there’s a definite tilt to it. We also checked out the city’s ancient Pan Gate, which was built about 2500 years ago by the state of Wu, and learned that its new Gate of the

Orient is the city’s tallest building completed in 2011.

While visiting Suzhou, we also checked out some of its meticulously designed gardens, for there are so many of them in this city, including the Garden of Cultivation, Lion Grove Garden, Master of the Nets Garden, Lingering Garden, Couple’s Retreat Garden, and the Humble Administrator’s Garden. While

at the Master of Nets Garden, for example, we saw a chariot-style vehicle’on display which was used to carry someone important via shoulders, and our local tour guide called this “the BMW of ancient China”. This particular garden was built over 800 years ago by a wealthy son for his father and it’s one of several classical Suzhou gardens recognized as a World Heritage Site.

Local student to perform with all-star jazz band

By Sue Dickens

News – Campbellford – Peter Wowk, 17, a Grade 11 student at Campbellford District High School (CDHS), is hitting all the right notes these days.

He has been selected to join the National Conn-Selmer Centerstage All-Star Jazz Band – a 20-piece group of the top musicians from across Canada.

“I know that the level of this band is absolutely insane,” Wowk told the Trent Hills Independent after hearing the news in an email.

“I feel very privileged to be one of two alto saxophones in the band.”

Wowk went through a rigorous audition process and will fly out to British Columbia on May 11 to rehearse and perform for a

solid week at the Nationals.

The Musicfest Canada Nationals is one of the largest music festivals in the world, bringing together the best school groups from across the country to perform in a different Canadian city each year.

School groups must earn the right to perform at the Nationals by winning a gold award and being recommended by adjudicators at regional festivals.

Wowk’s group will be recording a CD while in Vancouver.

He earned this honour after a lot of hard work and practice.

“I’ve been taking violin lessons since I was five. I’ve been playing the saxophone since Grade 9,” he commented. He also plays the viola and piano.

Wowk is a member of the senior jazz band at CDHS but admits his first choice is classical music. However, he does enjoy

the improvising that is integral to playing jazz.

“I’m just really looking forward to playing with people out there that are at such a high level, essentially professionals, playing at the professional level. Being surrounded by them and being able to play and better myself as a musician at the same time, I think that’s what’s most important to me,” he added.

Wowk joins a prestigious group of musicians from CDHS who have earned this honour.

“We’ve had several students be in the national all-star group and a few others who have gone off to professional music careers, but I think Peter is the most musically accomplished at this stage of his musical career,” said CDHS music teacher Dave Noble.

He would like to see his love of music

take him on a career path that would include playing for an orchestra one day.

“I want to go to university for the music performance program . . . and specify the violin,” he said.

Wowk is considering applying to the University of Toronto or McGill or Wilfrid Laurier University.

Noble commented on Wowk’s success.

“This is a huge accomplishment these days. You pretty much have to be pro to win this. This is a tremendous honour, and well deserved,” he said.

“Peter is the most outstanding musician we’ve ever had in my time at the school.”

Noble has been teaching at CDHS for 20 years, and in that time CDHS groups have won 25 national gold awards, performed with Jeff Healey and the Downchild Blues Band, and were invited guests of Canada’s Governor General in Ottawa.

Condolence book for Jim Flaherty

News - Peterborough – A condolence book to honour the late Jim Flaherty will be at the constituency office of Peterborough MP Dean Del Mastro for the general public to sign.

The book will be at the constituency office until the House of Parliament resumes its session on April 28.

Mr. Flaherty, the Government of Canada’s thirty-seventh finance minister and the

MP for Whitby-Oshawa since 2006, died suddenly of a heart attack on April 10. A state funeral was held April 16 in Toronto; it was the thirty-fourth state funeral to be held in Canada since 1868, the seventh to pay tribute to a cabinet minister.

“Jim was a great friend and colleague, a dedicated family man, and an extraordinary Minister of Finance who sacrificed an enormous amount in his

years of service to Canada and to Canadians,” Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in announcing the state funeral. “He will be remembered with great affection and respect. Jim and his family remain in our thoughts and our prayers at this difficult time.”

MP Del Mastro’s constituency office is located at 1600 Lansdowne Street West, Unit 3.

Figurative artist returns to Warkworth

By Sue Dickens

News – Warkworth – Returning to Warkworth, Toronto artist Brian Smith will be hosting a teaching workshop called “Portraiture – Realism to Abstraction”.

This will be his fourth visit to Warkworth in less than two years.

He juried the Maple Syrup Festival in 2013, and followed up with two Figurative Abstraction workshops in May and October.

Both workshops were sold out with 20 artists participating in each event.

The workshop is being promoted by the Spirit of the Hills Northumberland Arts Association.

“With only two spots left, the workshop fills up quickly and is sure to be another highlight of the art year for

Spirit of the Hills members,” said Diane Arsenault, president of the Spirit of the Hills.

She provided an outline for the course.

“This exciting and in-depth two-day portraiture course will begin with lessons aimed at developing one’s ability to capture a likeness of any model.

Starting from an understanding of facial landmarks and proportions, you will be challenged to look for and isolate the unique features that identify each of us.

“On day two we will play visual games that will help you think more abstractly about the face and facilitate deconstruction of the image. I believe that understanding the structure of the face and how to draw it is essential to being able to deconstruct it and abstract it.”

Works by a variety of artists will be discussed throughout the course.

Smith has taught classes and workshops on life drawing, portraiture and figurative abstraction for more than 20 years. He has been on the faculty of the Ontario College of Art and Design, The Koffler Centre for the Arts, Haliburton School of The Arts, Curry’s Art School, Visual Arts Mississauga and Neilson Park Creative Centre and conducts Master Classes in his own studio.

The Portraiture Workshop takes place on Saturday and Sunday, April 26 and 27 from 9:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. at the Warkworth Town Hall Centre for the Arts.

Bringing back the bees - Native pollinators

By Diane Sherman

News - Ivanhoe - Honey bees are a unique species unto themselves, the only bee to swarm and colonize.

There are over 400 other species of bees in Ontario, like squash bees, so friendly they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sting and males can be found sleeping in wilted squash flowers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most bees are solitary,â&#x20AC;? says pollination biologist Susan Chan, manager of the Native Pollinators Program for Farms at Work, a non-profit stewardship group working with regional farmers and landowners on habitat plantings for pollinators.

She says honey bees are the only ones to swarm and the only ones to produce a yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth of honey. Other species nest in the ground, in wood, hay piles, old plant stems, and, not all bees like the same plants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the past 30 years a steady decline in bees worldwide has been well documented.â&#x20AC;? Chan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was not really noticed until endocrinologists looked back in museum records and found a number of species disappearing.â&#x20AC;? The destruction of natural habitats and pesticides tend to be the primary causes.

Chan spoke before a full house in Ivanhoe, April 3, with nearly 150 people from Belleville to Gilmour, Marmora to Tweed and places beyond and between. All those gathered at the Huntington Veteranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hall were interested in bringing back the bees.

The presentation was co-hosted by the Hastings Stewardship Council and the Highlands of Hastings Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Institute.

The audience consisted of cattle and crop farmers, woodlot owners, commercial and back yard gardeners. Their questions showed a wide range of interest and concern.

Creating habitat for all species of bees is simpler than one may think Chan explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bees donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t travel very far. Honey bees may forage up to three kilometers from their nest, bumble bees about one kilometer, solitary bees have a radius of 100 to 500 meters, so you can have a great impact on their survival with a small concentration of work.â&#x20AC;?

She encourages gardeners and farmers to leave bare ground as ground nesters will return to where they came from. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their nests are only five to six inches underground, so tilling that area should be shallow or spared.â&#x20AC;?

Leaving fence lines and waste spaces, she says, is important. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These can be improved by adding choke cherries and crabapple to hedgerows, and plant a variety of flowering plants which will bloom at different times throughout the year.â&#x20AC;?

Each species of bee has a different length of tongue, so they need a choice of flower species she explained.

Some plants she encourages are borage, ver-

bena, mullein, sweet clover, asters, lambs ear, day lily, elderberry, honey locust and plants with pithy stems, like sumac, which should be left in natural growing areas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A patch of lavender is good, but,â&#x20AC;? she stipulates, â&#x20AC;&#x153;plant in clusters and concentrated. As I said, bees donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go far from home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Vegetable gardens are wonderful for both us and the bees,â&#x20AC;? she noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Leaving your broccoli and parsley to go to flower when you are finished is good for a particular species, and rather than cutting and tossing out raspberry canes, bundle them and let the bees make their homes there.â&#x20AC;?

Growing squash of any kind provides both nectar and a haven for the squash bee. Chan said gardeners should not be so ready to clean up at the end of the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Leave some things for the bees.â&#x20AC;?

Chan said one of the challenges in bringing back the bees is finding â&#x20AC;&#x153;untreated seed.â&#x20AC;?

Chan wrote a report on the controversial use of seeds pretreated with neonicotinoids in Ontario. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Neonicotinoids are a class of synthetic insecticides... which have a powerful neuro-toxin ... which binds to nerve receptors. They are all highly toxic to bees and aquatic invertebrates, and vary in toxicity to fish, birds, small mammals and humans.â&#x20AC;?

Chan told listeners the insecticide does not go There has been a steady decline of bees worldwide over the past 30 years. Photo: Diane Sherman away easily, it moves from the plant into the soil, the water and any organism which may consume
