Belleville – Canada is family. Canada is safety. Canada is freedom. Canada is nice. These were among the messages written on a mural, surrounded with cutouts of maple leafs, in a room at The Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints last Thursday night. They were the work of students at the Loyola School of Adult and Continuing Education. Students in the Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada and English Second Language classes had gathered for their year-end celebration of achievement. The annual event is an emotional affair, which shows the gratefulness that new Canadians feel for being part of the country. The mural, pasted in the church gym, where guests and graduates gathered for a meal, was enough to melt hearts on its own. But the activities that took place on the church stage, one room over, brought tears to the eyes of many, including local dignitaries. They also led to standing ovations and roaring

The more than three dozen students sang O’Canada in English and later sang O’Siem, Susan Aglukark’s stirring song, with the famous lyrics “We are all family” and “we are all the same.” Several students also delivered speeches, which showed not just how far their written and oral English had come, but also how grateful they are to be living in Canada and enjoying the friendships and experiences that

come with attending the school. Loyola is a school run by the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board, that operates out of a building at 41 Octavia St. Many of its students have recently arrived in Canada and had little to no English skills upon starting.

Belleville – A prominent downtown Belleville space has now been purchased by a Vancouver-based construction services and development company, which plans to turn the lot into condominiums and retail space. The old Quinte Hotel site, at Bridge and Pinnacle Streets, has been obtained by FairTradeWorks. The company announced the purchase of the property in a statement The corner of Bridge and Pinnacle. issued late last week. The lot has been vacant since December 2012 when a spectacular fire destroyed the long-standing Quinte Hotel. “We are glad to finally share our excitement with the city and its residents,” said FairTrade president Jim Perkins. “We know many people had great ideas about what should happen with the site. We listened to the ideas but it all came down to feasibility and whether the project made good financial sense.” The result, added Perkins, was a condo building with one- and two-bedroom modern suites with amenities along with retail on the street level. Perkins added that his team is hoping that their vision will add to Belleville’s downtown vitality. The condos will be quality built, modern and centrally located, he said. Perkins also said he believes that downtown living in major city centres is “the place to be as it is the heartbeat of the community. From young professionals to baby boomers who want to rid themselves of their high maintenance homes, condominium living with extra amenities is a lifestyle more and more Canadians are choosing.” FairTradeWorks says that the closing time for the real-estate transaction included a lot of due diligence including environmental inspection due to multiple fires, planning capabilities as well as market research. The company says the architectural process has already started and once it is complete, it will be presented to the city for feedback. Perkins says that all new developments take time to negotiate to ensure the structures meet city as well as real estate requirements. Only after plans have been approved, can construction begin and pre-sales start. FairTradeWorks is also currently building a $2 million senior’s building in Marmora. The 10-unit, 65-plus building will be available for rent next spring and will be called, The Bleeckers. It will also have a 2,345 square foot retail space available for lease.

Military Family Resource Centre opens in Belleville

Belleville Mayor Taso Christopher presents a certificate to MFRC executive director Tamara Kleinschmidt to mark the opening of the MFRC Belleville branch. Stephen Petrick/Metroland

BY STEPHEN PETRICK

Belleville – If you’re in the military, you’re part of one big extended family. And that family has a presence in Belleville, perhaps more now than ever before. The Military Family Resource Centre opened its Belleville branch at 610 Dundas St. E. on Tuesday, June 20. The move allows the services offered at the Trenton MFRC to be more conveniently available to military families living well east of CFB Trenton. Tamara Kleinschmidt, the executive director of the Trenton MFRC plus the new Belleville branch, said the organization’s data shows that 85 per cent of Canadian military families live off base. And she estimates that roughly 500 CFB Trenton families reside in

the Belleville region. So the presence of the MFRC in Belleville is long overdue. “We needed to address the issues of families living outside (the Trenton area),” she said. “Our very brave board, said ‘lets’ see what we can do.’” The branch, she said, had been planned for more than two years, but it really came into fruition over the last four months or so, particularly when a suitable location was found. The building is part of an east-end Belleville plaza, near Haig Road, that once hosted a call centre. The MFRC’s section is about 7,000 square feet. The nice hardwood floors and freshly painted grey walls were showcased to hundreds of

military supporters and local dignitaries who attended opening festivities Tuesday night. “Welcome to Belleville. We’ve been waiting for you,” said Belleville Mayor Taso Christopher, in one of the opening speeches. Much of the space is dedicated to childcare programs. The centre is already taking registration for its day care, which is available from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. The open time span is convenient for parents who may have spouses posted overseas and can’t share in the childcare responsibilities. But organizers stressed that families do not have to be connected to the military to access services. The centre also has meeting spaces and administration offices to deliver a range of programs, including a welcome and transition program, a family separation and reunion support program and programs related to mental health. The words “Together We’re Stronger” is written on glass windows in the building and on promotional materials. The slogan sums up the importance of military families supporting one another. The Belleville MFRC, like the Trenton MFRC and others across the country, is intended to put those words into action. Local MFRC board chair Linda Blanchett said she’s a granddaughter, daughter, wife and mother of Canadian Forces members, so she knows how important it is for military families to have a centre, where they can seek support. “We’ve very much so one big family,” she said. “We’ve very much about supporting people when they need it.” The work on expanding MFRC services isn’t over yet. The board is also working to open a Frankford branch soon. For more details on the MFRC visit trentonmfrc.ca

First strawberries arrive at Belleville Farmers’ Market BY JACK EVANS

Belleville – The first local strawberries of the season arrived recently at the Belleville Farmers’ market. Supplies were limited and were snapped up quickly, even at the early season price of $6 a quart. Prices are now reduced as the season is at its peak. Retail prices around Belleville are running $5 a quart to as low as $4 a box. Pick-your-own patches are all operating again throughout the area. Fresh produce continues to increase in volume and variety almost daily as the harvest season advances.

OPINION

Silly buggers in Mid East skies I don’t remember which navy I was in when I first heard the term “silly buggers”, but the meaning was clear. It included some sensible exercises like “man overboard” drills, but the heart and soul of game was highGwynne Dyer the speed manoeuvres by ships travelling in close company. These sometimes got quite exciting, because ships don’t have brakes. Off the coast of Lebanon, in 140 metres of water, is the wreck of the British battleship HMS Victoria, which sank in 1893. It is the world’s only vertical wreck, because its bow is plunged deep in the mud but its stern is only 70 metres below the service – “like a tombstone,” said one of the divers who found it in 2004. And it was “silly buggers” that did for it. The British Mediterranean fleet was travelling in two parallel lines when Admiral Tryon decided to reverse course – and to make it interesting he ordered the lead ships of each line to make the turn inwards, towards the other line. In theory the two lines of ships should have ended up travelling in the opposite direction, but much closer together. Unfortunately, they were already too close, and they couldn’t turn tightly enough to avoid hitting each other. The lead battleship of the other line rammed HMS Victoria and all 10,400 tonnes of her sank within a few minutes, carrying the admiral and 357 other officers and men down with her. That’s the sort of t hing that happens when you play “silly buggers” and get it wrong. It’s silly enough when everybody is on the same side. When two different countries start playing “silly buggers” it gets even more dangerous, and that’s where we are right now. Last Monday, over the Baltic Sea, a Russian fighter plane flew within one and a half metres of an American reconaissance aircraft’s wingtip. US officials protested, saying it was “unsafe” and criticizing the Russian pilot’s “high rate of closure speed and poor control of the aircraft.” Had the Russian pilot been ordered to get that close? Probably not. Did he intend to scare the Americans? Almost certainly, yes. He probably did misjudge the distance – it’s not worth dying to make your point – but he would have known that he was off the leash.

American reconnaissance flights targeting Russia are perfectly legal so long as they stay over international waters, but they have become much more frequent over both the Baltic and the Black Seas. That is clearly yanking the Russians’ chain, and they duly get worked up about it. More importantly, the Russian pilot would have known what is going on over Syria. The game over eastern Syria has gone beyond mere “silly buggers”. It’s more like “chicken” now, with the Russians and the Americans pushing each other to see how far they can go. But it’s the Americans who are actually shooting, though they haven’t killed any Russians yet. Early this month, the US shot down a Russian-made Syrian government drone near the al-Tanf border crossing, between Syria and Iraq. Then on Sunday an American F/A-18 shot down a Syrian air force fighter-bomber near the Islamic State’s besieged capital of Raqqa. The Russians responded by saying that they would track any Western aircraft operating west of the Euphrates River as potential targets. When US aircraft mistakenly dropped bombs on Syrian government troops last September, killing 62 of them, nobody shot them down. But that was then, and the rules have clearly changed – as was underlined recently when US forces shot down another Syrian government drone near al-Tanf, this time an Iranian-built Shahed 129. At one level, what’s driving all this is the fact that Islamic State is going under, and the various players are racing to gain control of the parts of eastern Syria that were or still are controlled by the group. US forces are part of that race, and are getting increasingly reckless about how they compete. At a higher level, this is the result of President Donald Trump’s decision to commit the United States and its forces to the Sunni side in the Sunni-Shia confrontation that links all the local wars together. That defines not only the Syrian government but also its Iranian and Russian supporters as America’s enemies, and the American forces in the region are just responding to that shift. There is still no clear American vision for the future of the Middle East, let alone a serious strategy for accomplishing it. But meanwhile the games-playing continues and intensifies, and it’s only a matter of time before some Russian or American gets killed by the other side. Silly buggers.

Media gag order on school board trustees is irresponsible Editorial by Stephen Petrick There are so many questions worth asking right now to Hastings Prince Edward District School Board trustees, particularly to David Patterson and Mary Hall, who both represent the Belleville region. Was the decision to close Quinte Secondary School the right one? How would you explain it to students and parents? Why was QSS considered expendable, when Moira Secondary School was not? And how heavily did the accommodation review process weigh on your shoulders? But you won’t read answers to these questions in these pages – at least not to the extent that you should. Metroland Media requested to speak to the two trustees, through board communications director Kerry Donnell, following a vote on June 19 that will lead to the closure of several schools, including QSS. But the reporter was told the two trustees cannot speak to media. Instead, the newspaper could speak to board chair Lucille Kyle, who is the official spokesperson for the board of trustees. Kyle, graciously, spoke and answered questions, as did Education Director Mandy Savery-Whiteway. The problem is that Kyle is a trustee who represents the North Hastings area. As chair, she’s certainly responsible for the decisions, but a vote on closing schools in Belleville likely was not as emotional to her, as it would have been for Patterson and Hall, two elected officials who serve the area. Surely, they were both inundated with emails and comments from constituents leading up to the vote and they owe these people answers. And while it was good of Savery-Whiteway to talk, she is a public servant who works in an objective role. She can deliver facts to the media and talk about the administrative nature of school board work, but she’s not as free to give opinions on sensitive subjects as an elected official presumably would be. The job of a journalist when covering a pub-

lic institution, such as a school board, is to ask questions to officials that he or she feels the general public would want answers to. The fact that Patterson and Hall were sheltered from the media shows incredibly poor judgement from the school board. Metroland was later told that this order is a result of a long-standing board policy; one which requests the board of trustees to act all as one cohesive unit. There were times, throughout the accommodation review process when other trustees spoke to media, Donnell pointed out. But they did this in error, unaware of their own policy. But if that’s the board’s policy, we must say this: It’s a horribly bad policy. It’s insensitive to the fact that boards are made up different human beings, with different opinions on subjects. And it’s certainly not normal. The idea of a reporter not being able to speak to a municipal councillor following a meeting is unheard of in the areas we cover. To be clear, almost no one in the world is legally required to speak to media. Generally, elected officials do it for the sake of being transparent and gaining the publicity they need, if they wish to seek re-election. And the fact that trustees weren’t to speak to media following the vote wasn’t really an inconvenience to the deadline-natured work of reporters. There was plenty of information available, following the vote, to fill newspaper space and airwaves. The policy – or the media gag-order, as we’ll call it – is ultimately a disservice to taxpayers, particularly those from school communities impacted by the recent vote, which include communities in Centre Hastings and Prince Edward County. Many people want to know why their trustees made the vote they did and how they feel about the future of local schools. Trustees may well have thorough and respectable answers to those questions. But we’ll never know for sure.

LOYOLA CEREMONY INSPIRATIONAL Bilal Mansour said his family arrived in Canada from Syria seven months ago. “We are new to Canada and we are really happy,” he said. “When we came to Canada, no one spoke English. Just some words – yes, no, thank you. Now we known English and everything is great. We love Canada because it’s our home.” Kanivar Haci, Amleset Tesfamarian and Grace Santon, three students in the Level 1 morning program delivered a speech together. They spoke about the fun they had visiting places like Glanmore House. “Thank you Canada,” the three said simultaneously. “Thank you for everything.” The class of students included more than 10 from Syria, but also countries such as Afghanistan, China, the Ivory Coast and Jamaica.

Supporters of the Belleville General Hospital Foundation gathered at the hospital June 22 to announce the theme of this year’s gala, Legends of Rock. Guests are encouraged to wear rock-themed outfits, as this group has.

Continued from Page 1

“We love Canada, because it’s our home.” BILAL MANSOUR, LOYOLA STUDENT

Teacher Michele Dean said that the theme for this year’s class was “fortitude and courage.” It was a fitting theme, given that many in the class had come from countries far away to search for a better life, free from war, food insecurity and other problems. The common link, she said, is “all have come to be part of Canada.”

Belleville – The Belleville General Hospital Foundation hopes the community will “Rock for Better Care” this year. The fundraising arm of the local hospital has announced the theme for its annual fall gala; it’s Legends of Rock. The gala takes place on Saturday, Sept. 16 at the Sears Atrium. The cocktail and concert hour starts at 5 p.m. The dinner, auction and dancing get underway at 6:30 p.m. Every year, the BGHF holds a gala event with a different theme, which encourages guests to dress up, assume a different personality and have fun. For the second straight year, Tamara Bricknell will serve as the gala chair. Bricknell is the general manager of Amica at Quinte Gardens, a

seniors residence, whose staff work closely with hospital officials. “I am grateful for the partnership that we have developed over the years. I believe the community sees the gala as our opportunity to give back to the hospital and ensure the best care possible for its patients,” Bricknell said. Each year this event raises funds to purchase lifesaving equipment for BGH to ensure that those in the Quinte community can receive quality care, locally. This year’s event will help raise money for new ventilators in the ICU department. Last year this event raised $280,000 for cancer care at BGH.

City says ‘Wilkommen’ to Lahr group BY STEPHEN PETRICK

Belleville – Belleville really is the Friendly City – just ask people visiting from Lahr, Germany. City officials welcomed a delegation from its European sister city, starting with a ceremony at City Hall on Wednesday, June 21. When Jorg Uffelmann, a city councillor from Lahr, was asked what he likes best about visiting Belleville, he said it’s the friendly nature of the people. “For me it’s astonishing that the people are so friendly,” said Uffelmann, while visiting the council chamber. “In Germany, it’s a little bit different.” This marked Uffelman’s second visit to Belleville. He’s sat on Lahr’s city council for 35 years. He said the two cities are alike in many ways. Both have about 50,000 people and have a healthy tourism industry. He said he’ll look forward to mingling with Belleville councillors and staff over the next few days to exchange ideas. But ultimately, the visit is about friendship – and an opportunity to see Canada as it gets ready to celebrate its 150th anniversary. This current visit from Lahr officials is particularly monumental because this year the two

cities are celebrating 45 years of friendship. It was in 1972 that a “twin-city” partnership was formed – a fitting relationship given that Belleville neighbours CFB Trenton and Lahr was once home to a Canadian military base, which earned the city a reputation of being “a little Canada.” That friendship was celebrated in grand fashion at City Hall, where a German flag was flying above the fourth floor. A cake was cut by Belleville Mayor Taso Christopher and Lahr councillor Wilfred Wille, using a ceremonial sword presented to Belleville by Lahr back in 1981. Coun. Jackie Denyes, in a welcoming address said “willkommen zuruck,” which translates to “welcome back.” “The city’s been anxiously waiting for this day to arrive,” she continued. The Lahr delegation was expected to spend the rest of the week in Belleville and participate in tours of Belleville’s waterfront trail, the Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre and the city’s industrial parks. “It’s our hope that you’ll see Belleville as a great place to work, live and play,” Denyes said. Later, Christopher gave a touching speech, which focussed on the fact that twin-city relationships allow cities to expand their culture.

Belleville Theatre Guild has change of command BY JACK EVANS

Belleville – The Belleville Theatre Guild’s annual meeting on June 21 was a livelier than normal one, with keen competition and elections for some offices as younger members sought to have more input. A highlight was presentation of an award from the Gleaners Food Bank to the guild for providing actors, directors and other assistance for plays performed on behalf of the food bank as fundraising events over the past five years. The food bank is now looking at other opportunities instead of plays. Suzanne Quinlan, director of the food bank, said she and her colleagues are very grateful for the effort guild members contributed and presented a plaque as a token. Taking over as president for the next twoyear term is Paul Lattanzio , who takes over from Moira Nikander-Forrester, whose work was highly praised by guild officials for her busy term. A vacancy in the nominating committee’s re-

port for house was readily filled by youthful volunteer Mini Verburg. An election for public relations saw Alyssa Ross replace Hannah Cohen. Liz Marshall retained the programme committee chair despite a challenge from Meaghan Lattanzio, but she invited her opponent to sit on the committee. In her report, Nikander-Forrester assured the guild had enjoyed a rewarding and profitable year in 2016 and she leaves with finances in “good shape.” Looking to the new year, Marshall reported that based on public response to an evening of one-act plays last season, it will be extended from three to four nights this year. She also announced the program for the rest of the season. It includes the classic Our Town by Thornton Wilder, to launch this fall. It also includes a restaging of the British farce, Noises Off; a touching family reunion, Marion Bridge; an old-fashioned gem, The Curious Savage, by John Patrick and the hit musical by Irving Berlin, Annie Get Your Gun, which includes the song, There’s No Business Like Show Business.

WELLERS BAY NATIONAL WILDLIFE AREA Public Access Prohibited

RÉSERVE NATIONALE DE LA FAUNE DE LA BAIE WELLERS Accès public interdit

Be advised that public access to Wellers Bay National Wildlife Area continues to be prohibited at all times to prevent disturbance to wildlife and their habitats, and to protect the public from hazards posed by unexploded ordnance. This former National Defence bombing range is designated as a National Wildlife Area (NWA) to protect important habitat for a variety of wildlife species including species at risk.

Veuillez prendre note que l’interdiction d’accès du public à la réserve nationale de faune de la baie Wellers demeure en vigueur en tout temps afin d’éviter de perturber les animaux sauvages et leurs habitats, de même que pour protéger le public des dangers que représentent les munitions explosives non explosées. Ancien secteur de bombardement du ministère de la Défense nationale, cette aire est désignée réserve nationale de faune (RNF) afin de protéger des habitats importants pour diverses espèces sauvages, dont des espèces en péril.

The NWA is clearly marked by “warning” and “entry prohibited” signs around its perimeter. The Department of National Defence regularly conducts surveys within the NWA to detect items (e.g. unexploded ordnance) that may pose a danger to authorized and unauthorized visitors. However, new, potentially dangerous items are continually exposed with changing beach and weather conditions and the danger and risk persists. Only authorized specially trained persons may visit the site to ensure protection of the site and compliance with relevant regulations. All other persons are prohibited from using or accessing any part of the Wellers Bay NWA at any time, and any person found doing so may be charged under the Wildlife Area Regulations of the Canada Wildlife Act. If persons are found to be accessing the NWA, they are at risk of being fined and/or having personal property, including vehicles and boats seized. Fines may be increased (doubled) with each subsequent infraction. All unexploded ordnance wherever they may be found, partial or complete, must be considered dangerous as they may cause serious injury or death if disturbed. If you ever find something that might be unexploded ordnance, do not touch or disturb it in any way. Rather, note the location of the object and leave the area. Call your local police and report what you have found, and where you found it. Individuals may call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) to anonymously report information on crimes occurring on this or other National Wildlife Areas.

Le ministère de la Défense nationale inspecte régulièrement le secteur afin de repérer les objets (p. ex. munitions explosives non explosées) pouvant présenter un danger pour les visiteurs autorisés et non autorisés. Cependant, de nouveaux objets potentiellement dangereux sont continuellement découverts en raison des conditions météorologiques changeantes et de l’évolution de l’état de la plage; il est donc toujours risqué de s’y aventurer. Seules les personnes spécialement formées sont autorisées à visiter les lieux. Cette mesure vise à assurer la protection du site et le respect des règlements pertinents. Il est interdit à toute autre personne d’utiliser la RNF de la baie Wellers, ou d’y accéder, et ce, en tout temps. Les contrevenants sont passibles d’accusations en vertu du Règlement sur les réserves d’espèces sauvages de la Loi sur les espèces sauvages du Canada et pourraient recevoir une amende ou se faire confisquer des biens personnels (p. ex. un véhicule ou une embarcation). L’amende peut augmenter (doubler) à chaque récidive. Toutes les munitions explosives non explosées, partielles ou complètes, où qu’elles se trouvent, sont considérées comme dangereuses, car elles peuvent causer des blessures graves ou mortelles si elles sont déplacées.

Hillcrest community says goodbye to beloved school BY STEPHEN PETRICK

Belleville – It doesn’t take long for Annette Huizinga to come up with the right word to describe the feeling inside her school this week. “It’s bittersweet,” said Huizinga, the principal of Hillcrest School, which hosted its last day of classes on Thursday, June 29. The K-5 school, located in Belleville’s northeast end, is being closed by the Hastings & Prince Edward District School Board. Trustees voted on June 19 to shut down the school and consolidate its population with Prince of Wales Public School, a larger K-8 school on the other side of the Moira. Many members of the school community seem to understand the decision, Huizinga said. Hillcrest had 117 students by its final week in a building designed to serve 150. But it’s still sad to see the school go, considering its long history of serving the neighbourhood, she said. It’s the type of school that has served generations of families in the middle-class NEWSPAPER RETRACTION FOR THE BEST BUY JUNE 23 CORPORATE FLYER In the June 23rd flyer, page 15, the ACER Switch Alpha 12’’ Windows 2-in-1 Tablet (WebCode: 10437049) was advertised with an incorrect price.

neighbourhood. “This is a close-knit community,” she said. “I keep saying it’s a familystyle school. They’re sad, definitely; they absolutely adore this little school. “But they understand and they’re looking forward to the possibilities of the future.” She said the advantage of Hillcrest families moving to Prince of Wales is that the larger school can offer more programs for students, like special clubs and sports teams. “And we’re not moving far away,” she added. “The kids don’t have to be on a bus for an hour.” Hillcrest School opened in January 1948, as a two-classroom building. In 1952, four more classrooms were added and by 1968 another addition was made to bring the building to its current open-concept form. Interestingly, Hillcrest was originally built in the 1940s to relieve the original Prince of Wales school, which was then too full. Today, however, the school is a victim of the declining enrolment problem that has plagued the Hastings Prince Edward District School Board of late. It’s the first of what could eventually be four Belleville schools to close. At the June 19 meeting, trustees also voted to close Quinte Secondary School at the end of next year and have students move to Moira

The board hopes to build a new school to consolidate Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth but if Ministry of Education funding isn’t granted to do so, the board plans to expand Queen Elizabeth to take in Queen Victoria students. The Hillcrest community, however, could have a school again one day. The board is also considering building a new high school on the site, pending on Ministry funding available. In the meantime, there’s an air of sadness over Hillcrest this week. Dozens of parents and staff members, past and present, attended a goodbye celebration at the school on June 26,

where cake was served and a mural of photographs of current and former students hung in the hallway. “It’s extremely emotional,” Huizinga said. “We (recently) had our last Terrific Kids assembly. It was a tough one, but a good one. We keep talking about how we’re celebrating Hillcrest.” She said the news of the school’s closure has been tough on older students, who have a strong connection with their school. But the younger students are taking it really well. She said on Monday, kindergarten students were invited to Prince of Wales to see the classrooms they’ll likely be in next year. “And they loved it.”

means it’s time for the Canadian Federation of University Women’s annual Town & Country Garden Tour. The tour returns for its 18th year on Saturday, July 8. The tour goes rain or shine from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tickets are available at retail outlets throughout the area, and on the day of the tour from St. Thomas Anglican Church from 8:30 a.m. on. Those who purchase tickets, for $25, will be given a map showing the homes or businesses of participating gardeners, who are opening their gardens for visitors to see. The ticket price also includes a lunch. This year there are eight “stunning” gardens to see, said organizer Karen Mouck. It’s always a popular event that attracts garden enthusiasts from all over. “Last year we had well over 300 people attend from Belleville but also from Toronto and elsewhere,” said Mouck. During the day, at St. Thomas, there will also be a raffle table with several prizes available. The event is a fundraiser for the federation, which provides bursaries and scholarships for local public high school graduates pursuing post-secondary studies. Details: cfuwbelleville.com

Quinte Skyhawks varsity football team hopes to touchdown in 2018 BY STEPHEN PETRICK

Belleville – Minor football in the area is expected to soar to new heights, with the debut of the Quinte Skyhawks in 2018. Plans to start a new Ontario Varsity Football League franchise were unveiled at a press conference on Tuesday, June 20. Peter Gabriel, a coach at Quinte Secondary School who also runs No Limits Youth Organization, is behind the plan. He’s already in the process of recruiting players to play for both a junior and a senior Skyhawks team. The junior team would be for students in Grades 9 and 10 and the senior team would be for Grade 11s and 12s. The two teams would play out of Mary-Anne Sills Park in Belleville, as part of the OVFL. The league has teams throughout Ontario and has an eight-week spring schedule. It involves four home games and four road games, which could be played in cities such as Ottawa, North Bay and Brampton. Gabriel believes the Quinte area’s strong football culture – there’s a successful Belleville Minor Football League that prepares players for the strong Bay of Quinte high school athletics league ¬– will allow for the team to be successful. “There’s definitely a talent pool in the re-

Peter Gabriel (middle) shows the Quinte Skyhawks helmet with MPP Todd Smith (right) and Capt. John Hart of the Sykhawks parachute team. Submitted photo gion,” he said. He added that, while high school football in the area is great, there needs to be an additional place for talented players to hone their skills. The team will allow dedicated football players to play a second season at the travelling “club” level.

Gabriel said he hopes to have 65 to 70 players tryout for the teams, thus allowing coaches to finalize rosters of 50. In the first year, he’s not so concerned about wins and losses as he is about “growth” and ensuring the team can become a strong fixture in

the OVFL. A long-term goal of the program is to prepare players to play at the Canadian university level or even earn scholarships to compete at American colleges. “I can’t wait to see the first graduate of the Skyhawks play football in (U Sports),” Gabriel said. The name of the team, the Skyhawks, was used with permission from the Canadian Forces. The name pays homage to the parachute team of the same name, which operates out of CFB Trenton. Gabriel said the military was supportive of the idea, when he approached officials with it. He believes that football teaches young people numerous life skills, such as responsibility and being a good team player, and because of that the team is off to a good start in recruiting players. The team began the recruitment process by having a table at the Belleville Minor Football championship day on Saturday. Gabriel’s also had quite a few phone calls in the days since the press release. “The buzz is out there,” he said. For more details on the Skyhawks email info@nolimitsfootball.ca or follow the No Limits Youth Organization’s Facebook page.

Former Stanley Cup winner Paul Boutilier joins Belleville Sens as assistant coach Belleville – The Belleville Senators have announced the hiring of Paul Boutilier as their new assistant coach. A native of Dartmouth, N.S, the 54-year-old Boutilier comes to the Senators after serving as assistant coach of the Saint John Sea Dogs of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League for the past three years, where

he helped the team win a President’s Cup championship in 2017. Boutilier has a long and distinguished career in the hockey world as a player and coach, including being a member of the 1983 Stanley Cup champion New York Islanders and a gold medal winner at the 1982 World Junior Hockey Championships.

He’ll join a coaching staff led by Kurt Kleinendorst, who’s continuing his role as head coach of the Ottawa Senators top farm team, as it moves from Binghamton to Belleville to start the 2017-18 American Hockey League season. “The players’ development and per

formance is what I am accountable for, so I’m looking forward to working closely with each player in accomplishing their development, performance and team objectives,” Boutilier says. “I am also proud and excited to get the chance to coach and live in Belleville, Ontario.” Paul Boutilier.

Donnan’s Fire Globe wows MPs, prime minister on Hill Ottawa - The stunning metal creation that captured the imagination and wonder of local residents made its way to Parliament Hill this week On Wednesday, MPs area Neil Ellis and Mike Bossio ushered a steady stream of MPs, cabinet ministers and even Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to the steps outside the Parliament Building to meet the artist, Shawn Donnan, of Quinte West, and his Canada 150 Fire Globe. Metroland Media’s Belleville News first introduced Donnan’s creation in our pages June 15 and since then interest in the globe has soared. A longtime resident and dairy farmer from Stirling, Donnan, is also an established welder. “His talent for original design, evidenced by the range of products offered at Horizon Metal Works, has consistently fired up the imaginations of his clientele,” said Ellis. “A popular product, his ‘fire globes’ are a redesigned circular fire-pit that can be powered by propane or natural gas rings, bonfires, or even LED lights.” Donnan’s latest project has received immense acclaim, both for its fusion of artistry in this trade with a sincere passion for Canada. Constructed primarily of steel, his Canada 150 Fire Globe features iconic Canadian symbols that represent our natural world, history, and eagerness to build a brighter future. Beavers, geese, loonies, toonies and more, adorn the globe. As a steady stream of dignitaries stopped to snap photos of the globe Wednesday, Donnan was asked repeatedly how he managed to craft such a stunning tribute to Canada’s 150th birthday. “Giving shape to a new way to celebrate Canada’s upcoming anniversary

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau joins MPs Neil Ellis and Mike Bossio with metal artisan Shawn Donnan outside Parliament with Donnan’s Canada 150 Fire Globe. Photo courtesy of PMO

of Confederation, the Canada 150 Fire Globe has established Donnan as a metal artisan most deserving of recognition. MPs Bossio and Ellis both applaud the patriotism of this local luminary,” said a statement from Ellis’ office.

“Something this beautiful, and boldly patriotic, must be shared beyond our community. We’re glad that Shawn has worked so hard to help us celebrate Canada 150 in such an original way,” said Ellis.

“Shawn’s work is the perfect example of rural ingenuity and craftsmanship at its finest. I’m so proud to see our community represented so well at our country’s parliament today,” added Bossio.

There are reports the globe may make its way to Wellington next Friday for the visit of Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, to the Farmer’s Market there and local winery Norman Hardie.

Details of the visit of Charles Prince of Wales, and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, to the Quinte region have been released and it’s a whirlwind, one-day visit packed with appearances at CFB Trenton and Prince Edward County. Charles and Camilla arrive in Trenton Friday from Nunavut, where they were to spend the day Thursday, June 29.

However, the itinerary shows they have a busy and event-filled day for Canada’s 150th birthday celebration. Their day begins at the Canadian Museum of History where they will help open the Canadian History Hall. After a visit to Parliament Hill “for a spectacular celebration of all things Canadian,” the Prince of Wales will open the newly renovated National Arts Centre. After a visit to Canadian tech firm, Shopify, Charles will once again get an opportunity to help open a new Ottawa landmark. Charles and Camilla will be involved in the unveiling of The Queen’s Entrance at Rideau Hall. The Queen’s entrance will have a new set of doors which “were designed to symbolize 150 years of Canada’s history.”

Eldorado – An investigation by the Quinte Humane Society (QHS) following a report that a dog had been “tossed” from a truck on Old Hastings Road, Eldorado, last Sun., June 18, has led to the discovery of the dog’s owner. “We’ve since been able to locate the owner of the dog. He indicated it ran away,” QHS Executive Director Frank Rockett told the Central Hastings News today, June 23. “Potentially if the dog ran away somebody picked it up and the dog may have hopped out or was tossed out, we don’t know,” he added. “The truck was not going fast and the dog was not injured persay . . . the dog is going for a vet visit this afternoon . . . then the dog is going back to its owner. Our investigation indicated the dog can be returned. We don’t have any evidence against the owner.” When pressed further Rockett stated, “We don’t know if there is any guilt on the part of the owner. We can’t say they’ve done something wrong. We don’t have anything linking this to the owner. “The story that was reported to us is that a dog had been tossed out of a truck,” said Rockett. He confirmed the truck did not stop. The witness described the truck that as a silver Chevy Silverado, but was unable to get a licence plate number. Without providing the name of the dog he did say he is a two or three-year-old Beagle and Bassett Hound mix. Rockett pointed out the situation has been very “traumatic for the animal and he is better to be outside the shel-

New Hastings County official plan moving slowly BY JACK EVANS

It will be many months yet before Hastings County new official plan is in place. At a meeting of the Planning and Development Committee last Wednesday, arrangements were discussed for meetings with individual municipalities. An original proposal from planning staff was to hold three meetings, one in the north, centre and south in working toward a year-end approval by county council. Members opted instead for meetings with each municipality. Lone dissenter was Reeve Terry Clemens of Marmora and Lake. “If we hold joint meetings, we can feed off each other’s ideas

and concerns,” he argued. He won his point in having all 14 municipalities notified of such meetings and to be allowed to send a representative if they can or want to. The plan must also be approved by provincial officials before it is in effect. The “draft” plan, as approved at the last meeting of county council, has already generated some concerns. Mayor Tom Deline of Centre Hastings asked, “Can we appeal anything in this document, or can anything be changed?” He noted that his council had already gone over it and had some concerns. He was assured that as it is still a draft plan changes are allowed. A related concern was correspondence from the province advising of new policies

and standards to encourage “secondary residential units.” “We were hoping to deal with this in our new official plan,” commented Justin Harrow, director of planning services. This too raised alarms for Deline in terms of lot sizes and other issues, which he figured would be similar for some other rural municipalities. Several other members of the committee agreed. The committee also received a notification that the nature preserve provincial park, Stoco Fen, east of Tweed, is being expanded to almost double its original size. The ministry’s announcement called it a “minor boundary amendment,” from 203 hectares to 353 hectares, or almost 75 per cent.

The notice drew no comments or concerns. Also going without comment was notification of rehabilitation of the Norris Whitney Bridge at Belleville, starting this fall and again next year. “Purpose of this project is to improve the durability of the structure as a holding strategy for the next 10 to 15 years to decide whether or not the bridge will be replaced.” Most of the work will keep the bridge open to at least one lane of traffic until a short full closure period in September of next year. By that time a new bridge at Carrying Place will be complete as well as rehabilitation of the Quinte Skyway bridge at Deseronto.

TRAVEL

Happy 150th Birthday, Canada! BY JOHN M. SMITH

Communities across Canada will be celebrating our 150th birthday on July 1, and it’ll be an especially festive, exciting time to be a Canadian. Ottawa, being our capital, will be at centre-stage for this event, but celebratory events and opportunities will be available right across our great land, whether one happens to be in Vancouver, British Columbia on Canada’s west coast, St. John’s, Newfoundland on our east coast, at Whitehorse in the Yukon, or right here at West Zwick’s Island Park in Belleville (with this year’s expanded 3-day celebration). Just get out and enjoy! I’ve previously written about many of our national parks and advocated visiting some of them this particular year, for entrance fees have been waived as part of our birthday celebrations. This is also true for various historic sites and marine conservation areas – and there’s also no charge to use Parks Canada locks on our historic canals. For more information, check out Parks Canada’s website: www.pc.gc.ca/en/index. Via Rail has offered a “Canada 150 Youth Pass”, allowing travelers between 12 and 25 to travel anywhere in Canada during the month of July for $150.00, and this has proven to be overwhelmingly popular. This pass was also available to those over 25 who held an International Student Identity Card (ISIC). Furthermore, Via Rail has produced a blog, celebrating the year’s events (https://blog.viarail.ca/2017/02/03/ canada-150).

Well. more than 300 entries were received, and the winning logo was created by Ariana Cuvin, from Toronto. It’s comprised of a series of diamonds arranged in the shape of a maple leaf, with the four diamonds at the base representing the four original provinces that formed Confederation in 1867 (Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia). Additional diamonds extend out from this base and create nine more points, completing today’s total of 10 provinces and 3 territories. Were you also aware that on the

day after our birthday, some residents and visitors from both sides of the Ottawa River will enjoy an interprovincial picnic on the Alexandra Bridge? Apparently many did know about this, for it’s completely sold out. There’s something very special about Canada! Although I like travelling, and writing about far-off, unique destinations, I also always enjoy returning to my homeland. On this special occasion, our 150th, I fondly remember some of the highlights of my Canadian adventures. For example, one of my favourite trips was to Churchill in northern Manitoba, where I studied and photographed polar bears from the safety of a tundra buggy. I also fondly remember going out on a small boat

off Canada’s west coast, at Tofino, to watch black bears searching for food along the shoreline in the wee hours of the morning. Other Canadian highlights have included a heli-hiking trip in the Rockies, a helicopter tour over Niagara Falls, an excursion out onto the Columbia Icefield, a visit to the world’s smallest desert at Carcross, boat tours of the Thousand Islands and Georgian Bay Islands National Park, camping trips to Banff National Park, Wood Buffalo National Park, and Algonquin Provincial Park, driving tours of the Icefields Parkway, Gaspe Peninsula, Magdalen Islands, and the Cabot Trail, a whale watching expedition at Tadoussac, gold panning in the Yukon, and watching a sunrise at Cape Spear, Canada’s most easterly point. As an avid cyclist, I’ve also pedaled across this country, from west coast to east coast, and Canada’s size and landscape certainly provided me with plenty of challenges - but what a feeling of accomplishment and of really ‘knowing’ the land! In addition to this memorable cycling adventure trek, I’ve also driven from ocean to ocean, and I’ve explored much of our nation by both air and train, too. Through my travels, I’ve come to the conclusion that we’re extremely fortunate to be living in such a beautiful, large, diversified, and enchanting country! Now that we’re celebrating our 150th birthday as a nation, this might be the perfect year for you to go exploring right here in our very own wonderful country!

CAS leads aboriginal initiatives BY JACK EVANS

As Canada marked National Aboriginal Day on June 21 last week, officials of the Highland Shores Children’s Aid Society reminded that it and related CAS branches across Ontario have been proactive in such issues for some time. A statement issued by Bonnie Perrigard, communications co-ordinator, on behalf of the agency, notes that Highland Shores CAS, which serves Northumberland, Hastings and Prince Edward counties already has “collaborative working relationships with the Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte and the Alderville First Nation. “We are

also honoured to have appointees to the society’s Aboriginal Advisor Committee from both these communities,” she said. “Despite historical and current challenges, we are celebrating the progress made locally to date and our plans to continue to move forward in the future. The goal is to achieve together an inclusive circle of care that keeps children safe and families supported.” The statement continued: “Another important step in the process is restoration of jurisdiction for provision of child welfare services. As of April this year, (one aboriginal community) has assumed responsibility for seven Lake Huron North Shore First Nations.”

Another unit, Dnaagdawenmag Binnoojiiyag Child and Family Services has been moving through a similar process for several years “When that designation is complete,” said the CAS, “all child welfare services for the Highland Shores area, with the exception of the Bay of

Quinte Mohawks, will be serviced by that agency in consultation with their aboriginal communities.” Perrigard explained that the Mohawk exclusion was a choice of the band itself. To that end, the agency lends is support to a number of recommendations contained in the Truth and Reconcilia-

tion Commission report to the federal government. Pwerrigard also referred to the recently-passed Child, Youth and Family Services Act in Ontario. One of its key goals is to “make services more inclusive and culturally appropriate for all children, youth and families.”

Entrepreneurs In Action – QUINTE WEST SWAP & SELL It’s a swap and sell where great customer service is always free Twenty years in business. That’s long hours. That’s hard work. That’s perseverance. And while there are many facets, we know that one ingredient must be present to achieve longevity in business – fantastic relationship building skills. Steve Raymond, owner of Quinte West Swap and Sell, possesses that ingredient. He didn’t just open a business. He didn’t just run a business. He built a business - customer by customer, relationship by relationship. Trenval Business Development Corporation was created in 1987 by the Federal Government to support small business and aspiring entrepreneurs. They grow our local economy by lending funds to small business and managing grant programs. Congratulations to this Trenval client and successful Entrepreneur in Action!

He sells entry level guitars to parents who don’t want to spend much prior to knowing if their child is committed. He will buy back the guitar if they decide to later upgrade to one from his more professional lines. He sells 15 movies for $20 – then buys them

back for a modest discount. Steve keeps top-of-the-line bikes in the store and sells them for deeply discounted prices. He doesn’t like junk – he buys or swaps good items gently used and sells them for a fraction of the original cost. Quinte West Swap & Sell guarantee their products are in working order and will return if there is any issue. He started in the spring of 1998 and was in the same location in Trenton for 18 years. He approached the conventional banks to discuss financing to buy his own building and was referred to Trenval, the local Community Futures office, and after working with Amber Darling, Business and Investment Advisor, he met with their investment committee. “They were great. They

were very interested in my business. It was not stressful at all – actually it was kind of cool”. Steve bought his own building at 251 Dufferin Street where he also has Tangles Hair Salon. Both businesses are all about the customers. Quinte West Swap & Sell keeps a huge inventory of tools for the tradesman and the weekend warrior. RC Cars and paintball guns (they refill CO2), games and gaming systems and all the fun stuff. They sell beautiful diamond rings and gold next to a huge assortment of smartphones. Need a computer? While he keeps laptops in stock, he’ll refer you to his competitor with a larger selection because Steve has cultivated excellent relationships with

other area swap shops. He has had the same clients since his doors opened two decades ago – that speaks volumes for his quality merchandise and one-onone customer service. His son Greg has inherited his honesty and fair-trade traits. Greg and Steve share the business with the goal that one day Greg will take over – but Steve doesn’t imagine not always having a hand in it. They always need inventory as they have customers who come in every day to shop for new items. CASH PAID. They accept debit, Mastercard, Visa and offer an ABM in the store. The Board and Staff of Trenval congratulate Steve Raymond and are proud to have been a part of his success story!

The Good Earth Important Gardening Things, Not.

By Dan Clost When I was young and starry-eyed, un rêveur, “proper” gardening was defined by a rigid set of principles and practices. Arithmetic was very important. (I scrupulously avoid using the term “math” unless calculus or quantum mechanics are the exercise of the moment.) So much so, that in one of my first columns I very carefully worked out how many seeds needed to be sown to ensure the requisite number of plants would be available. So many percent added to account for germination rates, so many more to account for transplant losses, etc. etc. That is not something I do anymore. I suppose if I worked at one of the great seed companies this really would be important but...I don’t. If you open up seed packets of onions, or carrots or marigolds you can see that if one or two don’t germinate, you’ll never know. If you buy a packet of specialized

geraniums or petunias you would quickly discover they have only six or seven seeds. Two things usually happen at this point- we will respond to your phone call and let you know that the number of seeds is noted on the front of the packet and, most importantly, you will pay close attention to the nurturing of those little golden nuggets. Some gardeners will think this arithmetic exercise is still important but not me. What I have learned is that providing the seeds with the proper cultural environment is more important. Another activity which involves ratios- still arithmeticis composting, i.e. C: N=30:1 Here is a short excerpt from Rodale’s online:” An ideal compost pile should start with a 30:1 C/N ratio. Fresh grass clippings alone have about a 20:1 C/N ratio. Building your pile with one part grass clippings or other green matter to two parts dead leaves or other brown matter will give you the right mix.” Gentle Reader, they’re absolutely right. In fact when I set up my composting area I constructed a huge holding bin for all the “browns” so they would be to hand whenever I trimmed the greensward or we emptied the household compost pot. I even had an extensive list of the C: N ratios of just about every plant that might grow in the province. So, part of the challenge with this is that I don’t rake up grass clippings. Another factor is that I don’t have as much time as I did back then. Actually, I suppose I do; however, it’s just that it takes

me a titch longer to accomplish things these days. What is important to know is that all organic matter breaks down over time and, if you create an environment acceptable to all the little critters, fungi, bacteria, you just need patience. Mind you, I have a broken garden fork handle which I use to poke aeration holes if the bin gets a bit wet: I pour in a bucket of water if it gets to dry. When I was designing our first garden beds I spent hours incorporating the Big Ten (variety, emphasis, repetition, balance, sequence, scale, line, form, texture, and colour) into every square inch. My designs were exquisitely intricate, so much so that very few observers were able to discern their complexity. The challenge that has arisen after three plus decades of gardening is that we continue to plants and they have to go somewhere. The reality is that the plants get tucked into a spot appropriate to their needs. There is one small consideration that I use to create a semblance of unity: triangles. As long as the triangle is visible (either explicitly or discerned by the subconscious), gardens almost always flow. The triangle can be in one bed spread out across several beds. Triangles can be made up of plants with similar foliage, flowers of similar colour (think triadic or analogous combinations on the colour wheel) or even inorganic objects such as stones. What is important about our gardens is that we like them.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

My Canada

Dear editor, I love my country. I was born here and will be buried here in the rich Canadian soil. God blessed my parents with eight babies who are now, along with their children, proud citizens of this great land. Sure, we have our problems, like any other nation, but we are a kind, caring and peace-loving

people who try to do right by all, on and off our shores. Our Lord must have fashioned Canada after His heaven. Every province and territory has its own beauty. The majestic diversity of our homeland is unparalleled. Few countries in our world enjoy the mountains, oceans, prairies, frozen tundra, beaches, national

parks, historical cities and amusement parks – to name a few. We enjoy our precious freedom because Canadian citizens, just like us, fought and shed their blood for us. Freedom is not free! Happy 150th Birthday, Canada, and may we always be worthy of you. Marie Kelleher June 2017

MP Mike Bossio welcomes release of study on suicide crisis BY SUE DICKENS suedickens.wordsmith@gmail.com

Ottawa — Mike Bossio, MP for Hastings — Lennox and Addington welcomes the June 20 release of the Standing Committee on Indigenous and Northern Affairs report “Breaking Point: the Suicide Crisis in Indigenous Communities.” “I welcome the release of the committee’s report on the suicide crisis,” said Bossio. “For too long this crisis has been allowed to take brothers, sisters, parents, and children from their loved ones. It is time that we work together in partnership with Indigenous peoples to help end this crisis for good.” Rates of suicide are disproportionately high among Canada’s Indigenous peoples, and the committee’s report focuses on finding solutions to this crisis. The report contains 28 recommendations that address the health, social, economic, and cultural factors that affect the health and well-being of Indigenous peoples. They recognize the complexity of mental health issues and reflect the view that there is no single solution that will address the rates of suicide in Indigenous communities. Rather, long term solutions will require a united effort across Indigenous organizations, governments and sectors working together to address

conditions that give rise to mental distress. Bossio state that he is “Looking forward to further action from the federal government to fight this crisis, and to Canada’s continuing efforts to renew

its nation-to-nation relationship with Indigenous peoples.” Underscoring the need for action, the report was passed unanimously by all parties represented on the committee.

County committee supports new minimum wage BY JACK EVANS

If one were to collectively ask Hastings County administration what they thought of a new, $15 minimum wage, the answer would come with a thumbs up. The most recent Ontario budget prompted a call for Hastings County’s director of human and housing services, Erin Rivers, to give a commentary to the county

oversight committee last week. Rivers summed it up as essentially progressive, with strong prospects for an easement in costs for the county in the future. Asked specifically about the increased minimum wage, she applauded the move, as well, saying it would help some of her department’s clients to be more self. The wage request came from Quinte West Councillor Dave McCue, who suggested the hike

Survivors

might result in fewer employees being hired. (There was no mention that as a business cost, wages are written off by taxation.) Rivers remained confident that the move would still prove valuable. She also commented on an over-budget drain from an inordinate number of indigent burials in recent months. A portion of that can be reclaimed from other sources, she added. Coun. McCue also questioned

the welfare caseload statistics for “heads of family” aged 18 or under. Rivers explained that since people that age are independent, they automatically qualify as head of family at least for themselves. Her detailed breakdown of welfare recipients also showed the largest single age category was 25 to 34. Also, the largest categories for education were from Grades 9 to 11 , at more than 1,200 each

CELEBRATION OF SAVINGS!

tobeattheodds;onewithgreatcourageandstrength;atrueinspiration Research funded by the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) is making progress. Today, more people are surviving cancer than ever before. Our investments in research over the decades have yielded many remarkable insights into how cancer develops and have greatly improved our ability to detect and treat the disease. Today, more than 63 per cent of adults are surviving at least five years after being diagnosed with cancer. In the 1940s, the survival rate was 25 per cent. The following are just a few examples of how CCS-funded research is working towards improving cancer survival: • Dr. Guy Sauvageau from the Université de Montréal led a study of two forms of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and identified a pattern of gene activity shared by the two subsets. This could lead to an improvement in how AML is diagnosed and how treatments can be tailored, which can improve survival. • Another study completed just over a year ago showed through a trial that, the addition of temozolomide to a shortened course of radiation

plus 528 post–secondary. Only 97 claimants were in the public school education level. Rivers was also pleased to report that the county’s application for the new provincial homeless initiative has been approved in the amount of $38,000. She also reported that capital repairs and improvements to county-owned affordable housing units are mostly coming in well under budget.

therapy, followed by monthly maintenance doses, reduced the risk of death of patients with glioblastoma by 33 per cent without compromising their quality of life. The trial was conducted for elderly patients with glioblastoma. This study was coordinated by Dr. Chris O’Callaghan of Queens University and co-led by Dr. James Perry of Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and Dr. Normand Laperriere of Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. • Advanced medical imaging was used by Dr. Jean-Pierre Bissonnette of the University Health Network, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, to see how tumours respond to radiation therapy. Dr. Bissonnette and his team identified small regions of tumours that are more active and resistant to treatment which may be able to endure higher doses of targeted radiation. A new radiation protocol has been implemented in Canada and the US, which may have a significant impact of improving lung cancer patients’ survival rates.

Hastings native awarded Meritorious Service Medal for work in Syria BY JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com

Hastings — Mark Cameron now has three more letters following his name: MSM. The Hastings native was awarded the Meritorious Service Medal by Governor General David Johnston, on behalf of the Queen, for his “outstanding accomplishments that set an example for others to follow and bring benefit to our country.” Cameron and two others, Dr. Jay Dahman and Dr. Khaled Almilaji, were recognized by the Governor General for their work with the Canadian International Medical Relief Organization (CIMRO) which they founded in 2013. “It caught us quite by surprise, (receiving) the highest humanitarian award that the Queen gives out,” he said. “This is a very big deal,” and it left him “pretty humbled.” Cameron earned his first set of letters, MB, when he was awarded the Medal of Bravery from the Governor General’s Office in 2014 for his role three years earlier in freeing a young girl whose foot had become trapped in a piece of farm machinery on a farm near Havelock. He's currently the vice-president of the nonprofit humanitarian organization that teaches emergency field medicine in disaster zones globally, especial-

ly Syria which he has visited numerous times to provide aid since civil war erupted there in 2011. The conflict between the regime of president Bashar al-Assad and opposition factions has cost 400,000 Syrians their lives, and forced more than five million others to flee the country. It's been “a really strange ride,” said Cameron, a paramedic educator at Sunnybrook Health Sciences in Toronto for the Advanced Life Support Educator Program. It began when he and Dahman, his colleague and friend of many years, saw these “horrific images on TV” of the violence taking place in Syria, “and it looked like things were about to spiral out control,” Cameron said. Their immediate thought was to “go over there and do something, help the wounded,” he said. “Within two days we were on the ground inside Syria.” Numerous trips followed as the two along with Almilaji volunteered their services to various organizations but “things got to be cumbersome working for other charities,” so the three men decided to strike out on their own, and formed CIMRO. “We found a niche over there for training these doctors in ... what we now call combat medicine in an austere environment,” Cameron said. The organization collaborates with other teams working in Syria and employs hundreds of people. The United

Nations and the World Health Organization are among its clients, and while CIMRO's main function is to educate, “we do a little bit of everything,” Cameron said, from providing winter clothing to running immunization programs to “searching for chemical weapons violations,” which CIMRO did, in proving that sarin and cyanide had been used to kill civilians. CIMRO's reputation has grown such that it gets requests from other countries to train medical personnel. “We now have the experience that nobody else has,” Cameron said. It was acquired at some risk. “I don't want to make it sound like we're putting ourselves in the middle of danger all the time because a lot of the trips we've been super safe, as secure as I would be here (in Hastings),” he said, but “the country's generally very dangerous,” and there have been times when his life was put in peril. As happened when a small band of ISIS members showed up at the hospital where he was working and demanded the Syrians “to give us up to them,” which they refused. “Honest to God, I was scared to death,” Cameron said. On another occasion he and Dahman were caught late at night in the crossfire between two feuding groups.

both groups and “settled things down.” Cameron admits to feeling despair at times but his motto is “Do your best for one patient at a time.” It's a commitment that has cost him dearly, being “a large factor” in

Friends of Ferris guided Canoe routes new county target walks celebrate Canada 150 BY JACK EVANS

BY SUE DICKENS suedickens.wordsmith@gmail.com

Campbellford — Celebrating Canada 150 the Friends of Ferris (FoF) organization has some big shoes to fill as they set two major goals as part of the guided walks program at the park. Walkers, led by FoF volunteer Carol Robertson, who has been conducting the tour for years, are working hard to accumulate the collective kilometres equivalent to the distance from Campbellford to the Parliament buildings in Ottawa (225 kms). The group began on May 2 and by July 1 they hope to have that distance completed. Setting themselves another marker the walkers will total their collective kilometres to reach the equivalent distance from Canada’s east coast to the west coast (7,471 kms). They hope to meet that goal by Dec. 12.

To do this walkers have been meeting every Tuesday at Ferris Provincial Park, rain or shine, at the east end of the Ranney Gorge Suspension Bridge at 9 a.m. when they walk for about one hour. In each case, the distance walked on Tuesday is being multiplied by the number of people in attendance (for example, 3.5 kms. X 10 people = 35.0 kms). “Our progress will be displayed in chart form and on a map of Canada located on the kiosk at the suspension bridge,” Robertson told the Trent Hills News. In addition, walkers attending enter their names for the chance to win a draw prize each week. Prizes have been provided by ParticipACTION. “So please join us, learn more about Ferris Provincial Park and at the same time, celebrate Canada,” said Robertson.

In its quest to expand tourism, Hastings County is now looking at routes for canoe and kayak enthusiasts. County officials concluded there are many scenic rivers, streams and lakes in the county that are under-explored and suitable for small craft. This came to light when Reeve Carl Tinney, at a meeting of the Finance Committee of the Whole, questioned an expenditure to a company called “Floating Point.” At a cost of $1,446, he wondered whether county staff were taking a canoe trip or something similar.

Mayor JoAnne Albert explained it as part of a new tourism initiative to identify potential canoe and kayak routes in many of the county’s more remote areas. The company is a consulting firm to find and map such areas, she said. There is also an initiative to have writers do stories on some of the county’s lesserknown treasures, Economic Development Chief Andrew Redden added. Much of the brief saw Albert reporting on Association of Municipalities of Ontario activities and their impact on county communities. Like all other county committees, finance will skip a July meeting.

Campbellford community radio station turns 25 on Canada Day BY JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com

Campbellford — Saturday July 1, will be doubly significant for Dave Lockwood. It's the 150th anniversary of Canada becoming a nation, and it's the 25th anniversary of the day his not-for-profit community radio station went on the air. The Canada Day celebrations will take place at Old Mill Park, the same spot Lockwood chose as the venue for CKOL's very first show in 1992. “When we signed on from the waterfront at 11 o'clock you could almost feel the people saying, 'They'll never make it,'” Lockwood said. But CKOL has, through the perseverance of its founder and general manager, and the support shown it by steadfast sponsors, faithful listeners and a dedicated group of volunteers who are its on-air personalities. Having his own radio station had been a dream of Lockwood's since he was a young man but once he set about making it come true, it turned into “a nightmare” because he “didn't know how much work was going to be involved in it,” he said with a laugh. He was rejected four times by the Canadian Radio-television

It was largely a one-man opera- teers” have come and gone over “Some of them went on to broadcasting.” Carey Marsden, from Alderville First Nation, “took her training here” and later became a reporter at Global TV, Lockwood said. “What I feel good about is the

mentoring, to take people with very little self-confidence,” and raise it to a level “where they can get on stage and grab a microphone and talk to people,” he said. Lockwood, who's 80, said seniors are “a very, very important part” of CKOL's audience as they constitute “probably 60 per cent of the people in our listening area.” There are about 30,000 listeners within reach of the station's signal, which, with the help of a secondary transmitter in Madoc, can be heard as far away as Norwood, Tweed, Belleville and Brighton. The station plays a broad mix of music and reports on local news and events, sometimes live on location. The station gets involved in the community; it's raised more than $60,000 for Campbellford Memorial Hospital over the past two years. CKOL's mission is to support Canadian content, promote local and regional artists, promote community events, support local businesses, and promote Trent Hills and area. With a budget of $50,000 that requires fundraisers to provide much-needed revenue, the station is “sustaining” itself, but “it's touch and go,” Lockwood said. “I feel guilty not being able to pay everybody what they're worth but they're coming in here and they're having fun playing their stuff, meeting a lot of people,” he said. Their reward is “the fellowship” they find.

Trent Hills artists become 'panellists' to celebrate Canada's sesquicentennial BY JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com

Campbellford — Gayle Fox came up with her idea for celebrating Canada's 150th anniversary in a big way while recovering from total hip replacement surgery. She spent two months in respite care at Island Park Retirement Residence and where she was staying looked out on the “beautiful historic building” on Trent Drive that once was home to a tannery. Many of its windows on the west side are covered over with plywood and they look ugly, Fox said. One day it came to her how to improve their appearance: Place painted panels in the openings featuring the official flowers of Canada's 10 provinces and three territories. She got the permission of the building's owner, Larry Healey, and then recruited 10 artist friends last summer to join her in the project: Susan Brown, Paula Buck, Lawrence Cotton, Jean Cotton, Agnes Lee (who was helped by her daughter, Valerie Tinney), Phyllis Léger, Beth Phillips, Barbara Pechkovsky, Lynn White and Violet White. Each paid $100 for the five-foot

West Women's Institute, Bemersyde IODE, Charlie Davidson and Velma Doherty. “I was very happy to participate and look forward to seeing them all on display,” said Phillips, who chose Saskatchewan and its western red lily because red is her favourite colour. Léger chose New Brunswick because that's where she was born. “It's probably the biggest painting I've ever done, of course, (and) probably for most of us,” she said. “It's been fun.” She also helped Fox with painting Manitoba's prairie crocus. “I got into it and got excited about it,” said Violet White, who painted the pitcher plant of Newfoundland and Labrador. Brown, who painted Ontario's trillium, said she and her husband Brian nicknamed their friend “Gayle Force” because if she hadn't been “the force pulling it together and pushing us I don't think it would have come together as well as it did.” Fox said she's “anxious for Canada Day to come” because she's “thrilled” the panels will be on display this Saturday at Old Mill Park (the following weekend they will be shown at the Incredible Edibles Festival).
