News - Colborne - Colborne Public School’s two-time provincial champion drumline will be looking to garner a third title next month and it’s off to a good start with its preparations.

It won at a competition held in Bowmanville and then last week hosted the Canadian Drumline Association Eastern Ontario Regional at the Keeler Centre.

“It went really, really well, everything ran smoothly, everyone performed well,” said Chad Morford, a teacher at the school who’s also the music co-ordinator.

Six groups took part, but Colborne PS was the only one in the intermediate class, earning a score of 77.5 from the three judges.

Another local entry Morford’s involved in, Oak Ridge Percussion, made up of the school’s graduates now attending high school, placed second behind St. Michael’s in the premier class, with a score of 90.6 “It was their first time so they were a little

bit amped up but they did quite well,” Morford said. The first performance of the year is usually the one “where you get all the jitters out.”

Colborne PS is headed to Montreal this Friday to compete in the Quebec provincial championship for the first time, against high schools.

“We’ll see how we do.” Morford said.

After that Colborne will enter two more events, in Brampton and Toronto, before seeking a third provincial championship against older drumlines.

“Up until last year they were doing classifications by age and now they’re doing them by ability,” Morford said. “We went from competing against other public schools and now we’re competing against high schools, so it should be very interesting to see how we do.

“I’m sure they’ll be fine,” he added. “The confidence it’s going to give them is pretty cool.”

Councillor urges council to have design done of Victoria Square

By John Campbell

News - Colborne - Talk of having a design of Victoria Square done has resurfaced, in connection with plans to restore the park’s World War I cenotaph.

Cramahe Township Councillor Pat Westrope reminded her colleagues last week they had budgeted for a design two years ago but “it never happened.”

Now one’s needed because of what the cenotaph restoration committee she chairs has in mind.

“They’re being very ambitious,” she said, in making preparations for

local observance of province-wide ceremonies planned for the 100th anniversary of the start of World War I. The project started out as a restoration only but its scope has broadened to include replacing or repairing the retaining wall around it, doing some landscaping, adding walkways to connect the monument to the sidewalk alongside the square, and “incorporating a round platform to match the base of the fountain,” she said.

Funding to a maximum of $25,000

is available through Veterans Affairs Canada and if the full amount was obtained, “we might as well do” the World War II monument also, Westrope said.

“We need to have an idea … of what council would like to see happen there.”

But “we don’t really have a plan for that park,” she added. “Either the brakes have to be put on” the committee’s ambitious plans so it focuses just on restoring one cenotaph by Remembrance Day, or a “design of the park has to be done so that we can move in a bigger direction.”

Westrope said a design would allow the municipality to add benches and picnic tables to the park in a way that wasn’t “helter-skelter.”

She noted the bell that was installed in Victoria Park was “randomly placed there, [although] we tried to position it as close as possible to its original location … Now there’s a cairn that needs a home.

“We need to have a conceptual design so we know what we’re doing,” Westrope said. “If we have an overall vision of what it should look like, then that helps this council and subsequent councils.”

Deputy-mayor Jim Williams suggested making use of a staff member who is a landscape architect and “involve her in coming up with a couple of options’” for a design.

Councillor Ed van Egmond agreed something has to be done, saying his brother who is in the landscape architecture business has described the park’s placement of assets as “hodge-podge” without any scheme.

“He was of the opinion it should have a total rework,” van Egmond said.

Mayor Marc Coombs said staff will be asked if a design can be provided “in a reasonable amount of time” because of deadlines for filing applications for funding.

This is “Baby’s” story “Baby” is a dilute Calico kitten that was born last October on the streets of Campbellford and managed to survive the frigid winter thanks to the kindness of a resident who provided an outdoor shelter and food. Baby and her sister Sandy are the only two of a litter of six that survived. Their mother, a Calico too, disappeared during the winter months.

Baby was live trapped and has been spayed and given her rabies vaccine and now needs someone with insight, patience and a desire to give this kitten a chance at a good life.

She is scared but does not bite or scratch, she just hides hoping for something good to happen.

If you think you have the time and patience to socialize “Baby” please let us know.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Wanted dead or live

“Do tasers contribute to increased use of force?”

tially hostile person, an officer has several options to deal with the situation. Foremost in his/her mind is to de-escalate.

This may include talking, removing the irritant, or even keeping his distance.

If, and when the situation escalates, the officer can rely on various tools, to meet the need, such as soft arm tactics, baton, pepper spray, etc.

At all times, the intent is to de-escalate the situation.

If all else fails, the officer is forced to use his firearm, which will result in death or grievous bodily harm.

Why not give the officer another option before he/or she has to take that final step with the firearm?

It is a rare instance where a Taser creates long-term injuries. Yes, they may occur, but death or grievous bodily harm will occur 100% of the time with a firearm.

I think we should be proud of our officers, and have faith in their capacity to do their jobs.

If a Taser will save lives, give them to the officers. If the officers misuse them, they should face the courts, just like anyone else.

Jim Harris, Campbellford

ter Orazietti, according to your own ministry, banning spring bear hunting for female bears and cubs doesn’t work.

In the eight areas where the Liberals have opened the spring hunt, the black bears will be hunted and chased by hunting dogs for a total of five months each year. Given the fact that bears hibernate for the winter, this pro-hunting action the Liberals have done will give little peace for the bears.

Baiting and killing the hungry bears in the spring is like shooting fish in a barrel. Killing these animals is not a solution as other bears will move into the vacant areas resulting in the continued killing of bears and the orphaning of their cubs.

The minister should reinstate

completely the excellent bear wise program in these areas and also the rest of the province. If the minister is determined to continue this barbaric “hunt”, he should allocate significant funds to those who are licensed rehabilitators so they can care for the injured and orphaned cubs.

If the Liberals don’t stop the hunt, then we should vote them out.

If you oppose the spring bear hunt, please contact you MPP, Premier Kathleen Wynne at Kathleen.Wynne@Ontario.ca, 416-325-1941 or Premier Kathleen Wynne, Legislative Building, Queens Park, Toronto, ON, M7A 1A1 or Minister David Orazietti 416-314-2301 or Minister.MNR@Ontario.ca Rick Foley, Essa Township

Dear Editor, Wonder why young people can’t find work? Auto workers make $32 an hour in Ontario, $14.50 in Mississippi, $7 in Mexico and 70 cents in China.

Each country employs the same technology, the same machinery and has roughly the same cost of capital. Guess where new auto investment is going? Next year, Mexico is set to sell more autos to the U.S. than Ontario. Are we headed for Australia’s fate here?

Consider that almost every job, whether it be doctor, teacher,

police or tar sands worker, can be replaced by foreign contract workers for one tenth what Canadians make and do the job just as well. We’ve already sacrificed the manufacturing sector. Why stop there? Thanks to automation and an abundance of willing skilled cheap foreign labour, the Canadian labour force is neither competitive nor needed.

I worked for Canadian Tire in the 1960s where virtually item in the store was made in Canada.

Jobs were there for the hav-

ing. So what happened? With the rise of the Internet, the free movement of capital, and free trade agreements, stateless international corporations have found a way to produce goods in very poor low wage countries with little or no labour or environmental regulations. They then sell their goods to the wealthy countries and pocket the spread.

Predictably, jobs have left Canada, the U.S., Japan and Europe and headed to the coal burning Chinas of the world. Contrary to

Dear Editor, In response to running scared Rawdon residents.

Marvin and Megan Molloy, Tasers are a serious piece of equipment to put into the hands of our police officers, and I agree with you that the question, “Do Tasers contribute to increased use of force?” is a question that needs to be asked, and addressed.

However, I hope that the people that do address the question do so in a calm, knowledgeable manner, using facts, and experience as opposed to rhetoric and unreasonable accusations.

Police officers in this country are trained as well as, or better than, anywhere else in the world. They are well-educated, professional people that do a job under very stressful circumstances, that most people do not want, or are not able to do. I am proud of the work they do, and the way that they go about doing it.

Do they make mistakes? Sometimes, but they are few and far between. The oversight on everything that our officers are involved in is significant, and I believe that oversight ensures that they always do their best. I dare say some other professions could benefit from this type of oversight.

When confronted with a hostile, or poten-

Dear Editor, The Ontario Liberal government, under pressure from the hunting lobbyists have allowed the spring bear hunt to begin in eight different areas in the province. This action will now allow hunters to hunt black bears.

Bears are the only big game animal with dependent young that are hunted in the spring.

Natural Resources Minister David Oraziett’s Liberal Party states the program will ban hunting cubs or female bears with cubs. An Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources report in 2009 found 34 per cent of bears killed in the spring are female and an average of 17 per cent of those are adults with cubs. The orphaned cubs die of dehydration, starvation and predation. Minis-

Spain: A handsome apology

Editorial - The Spanish parliament still has to pass the new citizenship law, but the cabinet has already approved it and Justice Minister Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón is sure there won’t be a problem. “In Spain, a clear majority realize we have committed a historical error and have an opportunity to repair it, so I am sure that law will pass with an immense majority in parliament,” he said.

Historical apologies are in fashion Gwynne Dyer – ex-South African president F.W. De Klerk apologised for apartheid, ex-British prime minister Tony Blair apologised for the slave trade and the Irish potato famine, and Pope John Paul II apologised for the Crusades, the Inquisition and the Church’s historical oppression of women – but Spain isn’t just saying sorry for expelling its Jews 522 years ago. It’s offering to give their descendants back their citizenship.

1492 was a busy year for Ferdinand and Isabella, joint monarchs of the recently united kingdom of Spain. Christopher Columbus, Isabella’s favourite explorer, discovered the New World, Spain’s armies concluded the seven-century-long campaign of the Reconquista by destroying the last Muslim kingdom in the peninsula, Granada – and Ferdinand decided to expel all the Jews from Spain.

Spain’s Jews were given only four months in 1492 to choose between becoming Christian or leaving their homes forever. Most left, settling in Muslim-ruled North Africa and the Ottoman Empire or in other parts of Christian Europe.

They kept their Spanish language in the form of Ladino – Castilian written in the Hebrew script – and became know as Sephardic (i.e. Spanish) Jews.

Ladino is now a dying language, but the Sephardim have retained their distinctive identity and are estimated to number up to a third of the world’s 13 million Jews today. Spain’s planned new law potentially covers almost all of them, for it is written very broadly.

Applicants for Spanish citizenship need not speak Ladino or even be religious. They need only be able to show a link to Sephardic culture (it could be as little as a Sephardic family name). In most cases, however, the simplest route to Spanish citizenship would be to have a local rabbi certify their

Sephardic ancestry, or to get certification of their Sephardic heritage from a recognized Spanish-Jewish community.

Spain’s justice minister reckons that only about 150,000 Sephardic Jews will take him up on the offer (which will remain open for two years), and he doesn’t think that many of them will actually want to move to Spain. But he promises that the government will not be strict in deciding who qualifies as Sephardic – “We are opening the door,” he said – and he may be surprised by how many actually apply.

What Gallardón has not taken into account is the fact that Spanish citizenship is, for practical purposes, citizenship in all 28 member countries of the European Union. A Spanish passport-holder can enter Britain, France, Germany, Sweden or any other EU country without a visa, take up residence there, get a job or start a business there. What’s not to like about this offer?

Almost half of Israel’s Jews are Sephardim, and Israel is a country where second passports are in great demand. The big Sephardic communities in the United States and Mexico will probably not be tempted, but the remaining Sephardic Jews in Muslim countries, including Turkey, certainly will be. Gallardón is thinking mostly about symbolism, which is important – but his offer will also have a real impact on many people’s lives.

Portugal, which expelled its Jews shortly after Spain did, is also trying to make amends, though on a less grand scale.

Last year it changed the law, and now grants citizenship to Sephardim who can demonstrate a connection to the Portuguese Jewish community. How much further might this example spread? Not very far, alas.

Most of the great expulsions of history have occurred in the context of war, like the compulsory “population exchange” of the Greek minority in Turkey and the Turkish minority in Greece after the First World War, or the expulsion of ten million Germans from their ancestral homes in eastern Europe at the end of the second.

It’s because the Jews of Spain and Portugal were entirely blameless and ruthlessly victimised that there is broad popular support in both these countries for this act of apology and belated recompense. All credit to Spain and Portugal for doing it – but it probably wouldn’t be happening even there if it seriously inconvenienced the majority.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Criticism is necessary as Putin emulates Hitler Dear Editor, I read with interest Terry Bush’s article concerning Canada’s role in the realm of international politics and in particular his take on Russia. First let me say that I enjoy our local paper’s foray into national and global issues! The article explains that Canada has, under the Harper government, reflected the policies of the United States where at one time we weren’t afraid to do what is uniquely in the best interests of our country.

I believe Mr. Bush may not have taken into account that Canada has taken a much harder line in our relations with Iran than our American allies. This government refused to acquiesce to Iran recently over the issue of nuclear capability. While the United States seems to be drinking the kool-aid the Iranians are selling about freezing their nuclear capability, Canada does not share the belief the Iranians will be true to their word. One need look no further than Crimea to see what independent states in a world with oversight will do to further their own political agenda.

Most importantly, in my opinion, is why our Prime Minister is the most vocal international leader in denouncing Russia

over the Crimean situation. As Putin emulates Hitler in trying to reunite the Russian-speaking people there is a concern for each of us in Canada. In 1940, two years after Hitler annexed the Czech Sudetenland to unite his German-speaking people under the Third Reich, he rolled into Alsace-Lorraine along the German-French border. The significance? This region of Europe was rich with iron ore and coal too highly sought after natural resources that fuelled the Nazi war machine.

In terms of today, Canada has laid claim to something that is well documented that Putin wants – the Arctic – full of subterranean natural resources. Naturally I have no idea what Prime Minister Harper is thinking but if I were him I would be concerned that Putin will abandon recent international proceedings over this territorial dispute and send the mighty Russian Navy to the far north to lay claim to what we believe is ours. Which is why I am pleased that our Prime Minister is leading the world in strongly criticizing the Russian President.

Sometimes things just sneak up on you

By Terry Bush Editorial - A few years back, I can remember hearing something about a new sport which was considered by many to be a little too far out there for polite Canadian society. The Americans loved it of course but then again, Americans have a passion for many things we don’t fully understand like watching cars go round in circles for hours on end. Not that NASCAR doesn’t have a fan base here in Canada judging by the decals adorning vehicles in our area but still, its base is solidly in the southern US. Before I get up on my high-brow horse I will admit that I have sporadically watched a bit of NASCAR over the years, especially during the Richard Petty era when I owned a muscle car, but I have never fully understood NASCAR’s appeal. That could be because I usually get bored and turn it off before seeing one of the spectacular crashes that nobody will admit they enjoy watching but obviously do. That’s why they’re a mainstay on sports television of course. (I will admit that crashes do have entertainment value but then again, we four Bush boys did spend a bit of time at Riverview Speedway between Frankford and Trenton back in the old days).

But as usual, I digress. A few years ago, there was much hue and cry from both politicians and regular folk that mixed martial arts had no place in our fair country. All that has now changed, as one would expect in a place where a guy like Don Cherry comes close to being hailed as the greatest Canadian ever.

In the television wasteland we’re all forced to endure with the Diehard, Bourne and Transporter movies playing every day for months on end, we can easily say we have 500 channels but there’s nothing worth watching most of the time. So what’s a guy to do? Well this guy turned on the UFC and got hooked.

Once I got over the initial shock of seeing two guys beat each other senseless, I found the sport to be refreshingly honest. It’s just straight up fighting to see who wins.

We can all probably agree that four out of five hockey fights are staged and the other fight is between two guys who are genuinely mad at each other over some infraction. As Don Cherry points out ad nauseum, most of the time the tough guys pat each other on the back after a good bout and head off to the penalty box having earned thousands of dollars for a couple of minutes work. Like anything else, there is an art to fighting in hockey. After all, one does have to stay on one’s feet throwing punches while wearing bulky equipment and a pair of skates. But then again, fights are not what hockey is all about and they’re usually conspicuous by their absence come playoff time.

Pro wrestling is also entertainment to some though I’ve never figured out how anyone can listen to ten minutes of tough talk for every five minutes of actual wrestling taking place. Pro wrestlers are huge men and a quick Google will tell you that many don’t make it out of their 50s due to steroid use and heart attacks.

And then there’s the UFC. If there’s anything fake about it, I haven’t seen it yet. It’s perfect in it’s simplicity. Two guys or two women in perfect physical shape meet in a cage and beat the crap out of each other, usually until one person gives up or is knocked out. Forget all the rules about fair fighting you learned as a kid. In mixed martial arts, it’s okay to kick someone in the head, stomp on their feet, choke them out or elbow them in the face. No kicking in the goodies though. There are rules.

I’m impressed by the shear toughness of some of these individuals and that’s probably what got me hooked in the first place. When you see someone take an absolute pounding, get knocked to the mat bleeding profusely, see his opponent jump on him and deliver a couple more shots and elbows to the head and then the guy taking the abuse struggles to his feet and flattens his opponent knocking him out with an uppercut, you just have to give the man his due. That guy’s got heart.

So I’m thinking maybe we should take it to the next level. Instead of sending in the troops when we have differences of opinion with other countries, why don’t we just settle it in the octagon. I’d suggest letting the politicians fight it out, considering most of them are allergic to the battlefield but really, can you see someone like Stephen Harper taking on Vladimir Putin? No, we’d be better off sending our best MMA fighters instead. That way, the so-called collateral damage, meaning ordinary citizens, would be entertained instead of killed.

Then again, what do I know? I’ve only been in two fights in my life and they were both with my best friend at the time and both happened before the age of 13. All I know is for some reason I enjoy the UFC and am a little embarrassed to admit it. But then again, I also enjoy Shaun the Sheep so maybe something’s not quite right upstairs.

Municipal tax rate in Cramahe hardly budges

By John Campbell

News - Cramahe Township The local tax rate will remain virtually the same as last year’s.

The increase of just .15 per cent approved by council last week is much less than the 4.25 per cent hike first proposed by staff when budget deliberations began last month.

The initial rate hike was all but eliminated with a series of revised revenue projections and reductions in spending, including decisions by council not to hire a deputy fire chief, enhance animal control, offer free WiFi in downtown Colborne or purchase a half-ton truck.

However, council gave the goahead to spend $20,000 to install GPS units in its public works fleet, provide nearly $17,500 in

funding to extend Cramahe Library’s digital archive project for another 16 weeks, and contribute $7,600 to the area physician recruitment committee.

The combined tax bill for municipal, county and education purposes will actually drop by roughly $14 to $3,263.80 on a property valued at $230,000 this year and last. The reason: school board taxes payable on the property will be almost $21 less, at $467.

The municipality’s share works out to $1,717, or 53 per cent of the overall amount.

(However, most ratepayers will still see their taxes rise because, as treasurer Mora Chatterson noted, the assessment on their property will have gone up from 2013.)

Cramahe’s new tax rate will keep it in the middle, at fourth spot, compared to Northumberland County’s six other municipalities in Northumberland County, Chatterson said.

Councillor Pat Westrope complained she had tried her best to bring to staff’s attention “things that people in the community would like to see happen … but none of them have been talked about in the budget.”

The requests included a streetlight at Salem United Church, benches in front of the Castleton town hall, a design for Victoria Square, and upgrades to light standards and railings in Colborne’s downtown.

“This has been a staff-directed budget,” Westrope said. “I realize you have to start somewhere

New events coming to downtown Brighton

but at no time have I ever felt an opportunity that I had any right to bring anything forward in the discussion and now we’re going to pass it.”

Mayor Marc Coombs said many of the things she talked about might be included in the fine details of the budget as maintenance and capital expen-

ditures.

“My point is I don’t know what’s in the budget,” but was being asked to approve it, Westrope responded.

Coombs suggested he and the councillor sit down with the director of operations to go over the list of projects she had put together, which also included a

new sidewalk.

Coombs said he would like to see the budget process changed to what’s done at the county where council members serve as department co-ordinators. The result is that the budget drafted by staff reflects the input they’ve received from council members throughout the year, he said.

less available for everything else.

Moreover credit is no longer the free lunch it was in the past.

Credit became freely available in the 1960s such that today we are maxed out. On average every Canadian household has already spent nearly two years of future income. High debt levels can be relatively painless but only in a fast growing economy which we no longer have. Add all this up and I see a perfect storm coming.

In my view, an $80 a ton carbon tax, a return to the win/ win trade agreements of the 1960s like the Auto Pact (which frees us from blackmailing by the multi-nationals), French style runoff elections, a 35 hour work week and a ban on money creation by private banks; these measures would go a long way towards slowing our Greek-like descent to joblessness, anger and chaos. But that would be dreaming. Right now Canadians are in

the dazed and confused stage.

We know something is wrong but aren’t exactly sure what, but aren’t hurting enough to do something about it…a case of the boiling frog? The mainstream media is not helping matters.

After all, big oil and the multinationals pay for most of the ads. And government can’t see beyond the next election. All it can do is apply more patches. We don’t do five-year plans.

We are handing our kids a country that is set to fail. High youth joblessness is the canary in the coalmine. It is not an act of God. We did this to ourselves. There is no enemy here.

Do we take the Alberta path and leave the pantry bare? Or do we take the Norway path and leave something for the grandchildren?

Canada is ours to save but also ours to lose.

Sincerely, Norm Braden, Madoc

Why you can’t find a job

what you read in the media, none of this is good or efficient or rational. This is the twisted logic of globalism. If we want a job, we must lower our living standards.

Our policy makers response…”Yes we are losing our manufacturing jobs. But don’t worry, our plan is to replace these jobs with new hi-tech ones.” The trouble with this line of thinking is, so does the rest of the modern world. And they are just as skilled and determined as we are, will often work for less and may be bilingual to boot. We will be doing well to keep the few hi-tech jobs we now have e.g. Blackberry. This is not a plan, this is wishful thinking! But there is more to the shrinking Canadian economy story. In the past decade, crude oil prices have tripled due to the increasing difficulty of finding new , affordable oil reserves.

The Gates opens next weekend with a special show

By Ray Yurkowski

News - Brighton - The Brighton Arts Council is getting ready for their third season at The Gates gallery starting next weekend with a special exhibit featuring the work of long-time local resident Jarko Zavi.

It’s taken a bit of detective work tracking down the 40 to 50 pieces that will make up the show says organizer Bill Murtha.

“They’re all from private collections,” he said. “I have about 15 people who are going to bring them together for next weekend’s opening.”

“Through his whole life, Jarko Zavi lived by his artwork,” added Murtha.

“He didn’t have another job and, in Canada, there are very few artists that live by their art alone. He shipped his work all over the world.”

Regarded as one of the most renowned ceramics artists in history, art was a passion at an early age for Zavi.

At the age of five, he began crafting small clay bird and horse figurines at his uncle’s brickyard and in his late teens, he perfected the craft at an art college in the Czech Republic. That led to a job producing fine china at the Terra Company where, after only three years, he The art of Jarko Zavi, at The Gates from May 3 to 19, will include his works became the head of ceramics design, a position he held for nine years. from the late 1950s to the late 1980s.

Zavi immigrated to Canada under the threat against his homeland by Adolf Hitler and only five days before the outbreak of World War II. Settling in Toronto, he married fellow artist Nunzia D’Angelo and moved to Cobourg in 1946, then Brighton in 1959.

Known mainly for his ceramics, Zavi also had a passion for painting, which led to commissioning his talent to many area aficionados. The National Film Board featured Zavi twice in 1946 and in 1963 he won a gold medal at an international competition in Milan, Italy. He died in 1987.

Interestingly, Zavi dug the clay for his works out of the Ottawa River Valley and, locally, in the Northumberland Hills.

“He made his own glazes as well,” notes Murtha. “He was one dedicated artist.”

The Gates season opener marks the first time in its three-year history an exhibit will feature only one artist as well as the first major Canadian showing of Zavi’s work since 1974.

The art of Jarko Zavi runs daily from May 3 to 19 with an opening reception slated from 6 - 8 p.m. on May 3. The Gates is located at 240 Presqu’ile Parkway, at the entrance to Presqu’ile Provincial Park.

Poverty action committee report released

News - Northumberland County “One in eight people live in poverty— right where you live,” says a recent Northumberland Poverty Reduction Action Committee (NPRAC) news release announcing their latest status report.

The report focuses on four prime areas of need: employment and income; education; food security; and affordable housing. Information was compiled using available statistics and through a series of “Conversation Cafes,” held throughout 2013, to present an objective look at the local problem: what relief is available and the measures that need to be taken.

The intent of the report is to give a snapshot of the poverty that affects Northumberland families and the picture is grim. Median income levels in Northumberland are about ten per cent lower and unemployment rates are slightly higher than across the province. And since 2008, the number of people in Co-

bourg and Port Hope receiving Employment Insurance benefits has increased 26.7 per cent.

More than 12 per cent of Northumberland residents are living below the low-income cut-off (LICO), a standard measure of poverty. Compiled annually by Statistics Canada, LICO is the income threshold below which a family will likely devote a larger share of its income on the necessities of food, shelter and clothing than the average family.

More and more families are turning to various programs and services just to get by.

“The term ‘working poor’ describes families who are employed with incomes below LICO,” notes the report.

“Many of these families cannot find permanent full-time work or are making minimum wage … frozen at $10.25 per hour since 2010. “‘Precarious work’ that is often parttime, seasonal, low wage, with poor job security, limited or no benefits, has in-

officially introduced by local MP Rick Norlock.

“The next day is Mother’s Day,” said Szurgot. “What a great opportunity to take your mother out for the day.”

And everything will be taking place at Memorial Park.

“It’s a way for the DBIA to do something for the town,” said Szurgot. “Everybody supports the shops in town really well and we want to let people know we appreciate it.

Help welcome spring from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on May 10.

As well, downtown businesses are being encouraged to register for another DBIA sponsored event, “Art on Main” (Street), which is slated for August 16.

“This event aims to promote our

downtown shops and local artists and our goal is to be diverse,” says organizer, Special Effects owner Sheryl Delorme. “At the pilot event, each artist will be paired with a venue and collaborate with the business owner to create their own unique display.”

“Getting involved is easy,” adds Brighton-Cramahe Chamber of Commerce manager Sherry Hamilton. “Simply contact the event organizer and let her know you’re interested, even if you already have an artist that you’re working with. It’s important to register so you can be included in the promotional material.”

News - Brighton - When her son’s Grade 1 teacher at Brighton Public School invited parents to come read with the children, Katherine Lawrence accepted the offer.

“I figure in everyone’s life there are certain times to do things,” and for her at that point it was “to do some volunteering.”

With two children in school at the time, “I thought it would be a nice thing to do to help out.”

That was eight years ago. Since then Lawrence has served as chair of school council and is currently its treasurer; helped plan and implement the school’s elective program which gives students the opportunity to participate in activities such as sewing, cooking, baking and playing basketball, and; worked with the school’s music teacher to obtain a $10,000 Music Counts grant.

She also maintains the school’s Facebook page, organizes the nutrition program, sits on the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board parent involvement committee, and is a weekly volunteer at the Food for All Warehouse in Cobourg.

For her efforts the school board recently presented her with an Accolades Award in honour of National Volunteer Week. She was among a host of individuals nominated by schools throughout the district for the time, effort and dedication they devote to students.

“She’s invaluable to all of us”—staff and students, said Brighton PS principal Mary-Beth Zeggil. “The kids love her,” and so do the staff, who “rely on her. She just makes things so much easier to do.”

They “seek her out for her gentle and warm welcome, and they trust and respect her,” said vice-principal Sascha Elassal.

“It’s a great place to be,” Lawrence said. “I enjoy the variety of it and … being with staff and students.”

Getting the award was “very wonderful” but she felt both “honour and embarrassment,” she said. “I come here because I want to, and I’m having fun … Everyone every day says nice things. It’s a great feeling.”

“We never cease to be amazed by the level of commitment and dedication of our volunteers across the board,” board chairperson Diane Lloyd said in a statement.

“There are more than 8,000 parents, grandparents, postsecondary students and other community members who literally spend hundreds of thousands of hours serving on school councils, in classrooms, on playing fields and school trips each year. We applaud them.”

Director of Education Rusty Hick said “they have a direct, positive effect on student achievement and on the quality of school life. Our students benefit immeasurably.”

Zeggil said Brighton PS has about 75 volunteers, including those who sit on the school council, and “they all do different jobs.” Up to 95 per cent have children in the school.

“When you have a child in school and you’re volunteering, that just always strengthens the whole relationship between the students, the teachers and the parent,” Zeggil said.

creased in Ontario to 20 per cent of jobs.”

More than 1,000 people are turning to food banks every month and the need for distribution at Food 4 All Northumberland increases every year.

“Often people living in poverty have to sacrifice food dollars for expenses like rent and utilities,” says NPRAC. Recommendations from a 2012 Justice Forum on income called for the need to increase awareness about the problem, get politicians and residents on board, along with increasing minimum wage and social assistance rates to offer a living wage.

A county report, “Where the Jobs will be in Northumberland 2013-2015,” released in May 2013, says employment opportunities exist in Northumberland County, but jobs could go unfilled because workers are looking for jobs that require skills they do not have. Education, skills and training are essential, yet expensive and often unattainable for those growing up or living in low-income circumstances. But the reality is, about seven out of ten new jobs created in Ontario in the next ten years will require college or university training. And in Northumberland, only 54 per cent of adults have completed post-secondary education.

A ten-year housing and homelessness plan approved by Northumberland County Council in September 2013 found 322 households on a social housing waiting list—74 per cent for a one-bedroom apartment. But some applicants can experience long wait times before being housed. The average wait time for geared-to-income units is four to five years. The plan also expressed concerns over the quality of some lower-rent private market housing.

Marina update brings questions from committee

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Now that the 388-slip $12-million municipal marina Environmental Assessment has been approved, it’s all hands on deck for the work ahead.

“It is the city’s intent to proceed with the project design process immediately,” said Brian Jardine, director of Planning and Development Services.

Design tender award has already been processed in anticipation of this approval. Once design work is complete, required permit applications will be submitted to a number of agencies for approval, prior to construction tendering.

“A construction start in July, 2014, is currently being targeted for this project,” he said.

The city of Quinte West website <www.quintewest.ca> will be kept up-to-date with project and design information as the process moves forward.

Construction timelines, subject to permit approvals, would see the dredging operation as well as on-land construction of a marina building, access road and shoreline reconstruction running from July through October, 2014.

“This timeline would enable promotion and marketing of the facility through 2014 for the 2015 boating season,” he noted.

Questions regarding the approval or the project implementation can be directed to Brian Jardine at <brianj@quintewest. ca>.

“It’s very exciting, now that things are under way,” commented Linda Lisle, manager of Economic Development and Tourism.

Questions were raised by members of the Economic Development Committee on April 16. Suzanne Andrews, manager of the Chamber of Commerce, asked if there was any chance boaters could get public input. Lisle said that has not been identified yet. She said it is a pretty aggressive design and they are on very tight timelines. Andrews noted that is after the contract is awarded.

“Will there be no discussion on the facilities?” Andrews asked. “Will there be business opportunities? We have no idea what is included.”

Lisle said all questions should be directed to Brian Jardine.

Glen Milligan said the marina should be used for all four

seasons not just the boating season. Lisle said they are looking at that type of space.

Steve Andrews asked if there will be parking for vehicles or marine vessels on the site. “I did not see anything in the plan for storage of vessels and maintenance,” he said.

Steve Andrews said Brian Jardine should come to the meeting. “He should come here and give us his vision and reveal the opportunities for retail and commercial markets for the business community,” he said. “The need for storage space should be addressed now, early in the season.”

Andrews said storage space is a very serious consideration and noted there is congestion at Belleville and Cobourg marinas.

“We have to look at parking or it’s all for naught,” he said.

Lisle said they will be looking at drawings in a couple of weeks, working with Chamberlain.

Andrews said, “It is more important it gets out to the community. This is tax dollars. They need access now for a business plan today.”

Lisle said they couldn’t do anything until March 27, after the EA was approved. A marketing plan will be done in April “We have really tight timelines,” she said.

Glenn Kozak asked, “What’s in the building? Is there meeting space? Is there food and beverages? Who operates it? The city? We have to tender this out to people who have the capabilities.”

Kozak asked, “Does the city want to get into the marina business? That is a big question. We are not down that road yet.”

Chair Paul Whitley said the mayor and council may have answered those questions already.

Councillor Fred Kuypers said, “You better contact the mayor. The building has to be open by the end of October.”

Glenn Kozak asked, “Why is this such a big secret?”

Kuypers said it is a tight timeline and noted that the marina has been discussed for four years. He felt it should be tendered

out.

Dave Shoniker asked if finger docks could be added to the Riverfront Square for boaters to come up to the restaurants.

Dave Fairfield said it could be an add-on to the marina budget. Paul Whitley said there is so little information on the marina.

Bob Wannamaker commented, “The property the marina is on is not ours.”

Glen Milligan asked, “Does that limit things?”

Wannamaker said it is all leased out.

Paul Whitley said, “We need more information. We are operating in a vacuum.”

Mayor John Williams commented the next day that a meeting will be held with the committee in the next couple of weeks to answer all their questions. He added they have had six public meetings over the past two years. The building is only 6,000 square feet and is just in the design phase now.

Sports - Trenton - TSN was at Trenton High School (THS) on April 17 to shoot a promotional commercial for the upcoming Kraft Celebration Tour (KCT).

“The THS Track Quest was selected as one of the completed projects which benefited from winning the $25,000 KCT award and hosting TSN broadcast to be showcased,” explained coach Duncan Armstrong.

The 30-second commercial will begin airing on April 28 on TSN Sports Centre and during the NHL play-offs.

“They also shot segments for another commercial sponsored by Kraft that is being used to support their Building Better Places to Play theme for this year’s Kraft Celebration Tour,” he added. “Students from the THS physical education classes were used

along with members of the girls soccer team. Great job kids!”

Armstong said this will be the third time their project has been featured on the Kraft Celebration Tour national stage.

“Full credit for this accomplishment goes to everyone who supported THS Track Quest,” Armstrong said.

Student reporters from the school newspaper and a crew from the Comm Tech class were provided the opportunity to shadow the TSN crew during the production along with local media who covered the event.

“Our kids were very excited to be a part of the commercial,” Armstong said with a smile. “To see themselves on national TV is pretty cool!”

News - Quinte West - Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Hastings and Prince Edward Counties (BBBS) is busy raising funds for its programs.

Executive director Arlene Coculuzzi said Bowl for Kids Sake was held at Club Medd Bowl in Trenton and Quinte Pro Bowl in Belleville on Sunday, April 13.

“We had approximately 65 bowlers

between both places and to date pledges raised just under $12,000,” she said.

They had a superhero theme and welcomed “community superheros” Mayor John Williams and Mayor Neil Ellis at each location to kick off the event.

Generous prizes were donated by Centre Theatre, The Body Shop, TigerDirect, Quinte Mall, Donini Chocolate, Dem Bones, Anytime Fitness, Big Brother Scott and family. Ontario Truss

and Wall and Malcolm Brothers sponsored lanes in Belleville.

Election nominations heating up for municipal seats

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - More people have filed nominations for the next municipal election in October. Mayor John Williams has stated he will not run again in this election.

Monte Hennessey from Montrose subdivision area has filed for mayor, competing with Councillor Jim Harrison.

“I’m waiting for the big meetings to reveal all my ideas,” Hennessey said. “I have a whole lot of ideas.”

He says he has been an auctioneer for 34 years and a construction superintendent for 37 years in Durham region.

Protesting

“I am tired with this community,” he said. “This is a swampland. They run a $2.5-million drain pipe into a farmer’s field and it runs across people’s property. They need culverts.”

He said he has good pumps in his house but the lady across the road has problems.

Hennessey said there are problems at the military base too.

“They get all their contractors from out of the city,” he said.

“I’ve worked for some of those contractors and they screwed the sub-contractors out of money.”

Hennessey said the cost of Hydro is too high. He has worked at Darlington and Bruce Nuclear stations and has ideas about how to save energy.

“I have my ideas,” he said. “I am going to wait to reveal my platform. I don’t want people to steal my ideas.”

Hennessey said he watches the news on TV all the time and has lots of information about politicians, provincially and federally.

“They are all scandals,” he said. “Just watch the news.”

Hennessey said he could not send a picture because he does not have email. Also running in the Quinte West election for councillors are: Trenton Ward: Duncan Armstrong, and incumbents Fred Kuypers and Sally Freeman. Trenton Ward has five positions for councillors.

In Sidney are Allan DeWitt and Charles Naphan, out of four available seats.

In Murray Ward are incumbent Jim Alyea, Dave McCue and Roger Dinner, competing for only two seats.

In Frankford competing for one seat are J.B. Brophy and incumbent Keith Reid.

In the Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board, Jim Williams and Tom Biniaris are competing for one seat in the Sidney Ward (excluding CFB Trenton and Frankford.)

John Brisbois has filed for the one seat in Algonquin and Lakeshore District School Board.

Cyndi Dickson has filed for the only seat in Kawartha Pine Ridge.

Michael Ross has filed for Le Conseil Scholaire de District du Centre-Sud-Ouest (French Public).

ita and husband Brian.

“The monies raised at this annual pledge-based event are for our growing mentoring programs,” Coculuzzi said.

“This enables children and youth in need of a positive role-model to have a mentor spend time with them.”

The matches are involved in games, activities, crafts, learning about healthy eating and life-styles, helping children stay in school. They learn the importance of giving and giving back and having respect for their family, peers and community.

“Our mentors are screened and trained in child safety in accordance with our National Standards,” Coculuzzi noted.

Money raised at the fund raisers help with program supplies, training materials and thorough agency support throughout the match.

“As we are not government funded, we greatly rely on our community support and grants to provide our mentoring programs,” she added. “The impact we have on a child’s life is a remarkable thing, watching them grow into a confident and motivated young person. ” Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada has been serving children for over 100

years and locally for 40 years. Anyone interested in joining the mentoring revolution can start something by becoming a Big Brother or Big Sister. If you are a family that would like to have a Big Brother or Big Sister, contact the office at 613-962-3666 or visit <bigsneeded.ca>.

The next fund raiser is in Trenton on Saturday, May 10, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. when Metro Paper Industries at 106 Dufferin Avenue is holding a Community Sale of its paper towel/ facial tissue products. Buy by the case, cash only, on a first-come first-served basis, rain or shine.

“This is the first time a sale has been held at this plant to the public,” she said. “It is normally only available to schools, restaurants or hotels. They are opening the doors to offer these products by the case to us, residential consumers, with proceeds coming back to our agency.”

Coculuzzi added that the 8th Annual Big Brother Big Sister Ribfest presented by Investors Group August 8, 9 and 10 will be held at Zwick’s Park Belleville. “We’ll be looking for sponsors, vendors and volunteers and prizes for the raffle tent,” she said.

Floodwaters receding in Foxboro

Ontario Minister of Community Safety & Correctional Services Yasir Naqvi toured flood-stricken homes in Foxboro and Corbyville Friday. Photo: Steve Jessel

News - Foxboro - Quinte Conservation staff say water levels on the Moira River finally peaked on Thursday night, and unless the region experiences further rainfall the worst of the flooding in Foxboro and Corbyville appears to be over.

“It’s just incredible how much water there is, how much devastation and how much damage there is,” Belleville Mayor Neil Ellis said Friday. “These people need help, they need financial help, they need help to clean up, and we as a city need help.”

Some 1,500 volunteers registered to help with sandbagging efforts in Foxboro and Corbyville over the past two weeks, using more than 90,000 sandbags to try and protect roughly 70 Belleville residences.

On Friday, Ontario Minister of Community Safety & Correctional Services Yasir Naqvi toured the flood-stricken area, visiting damaged homes and attending flood response meetings. Naqvi said the province has had disaster relief personnel in the area since “day one” but stopped short of committing any additional funding to the relief effort.

“I really wanted to make sure to come down and see first-hand the damage from the flood,” Naqvi said. “We want to make sure that from a co-ordination point of view, from an emergency response point of view, we remain engaged with the city so we can

beat back the flood, and also so that we can continue to brief the premier so she’s fully aware as to what’s happening here on the ground.”

Naqvi described the flood conditions as “devastating,” noting that some homes had complete foundation cave-ins while others had cracks forming in their basement walls.

Prince Edward Hastings MPP Todd Smith also participated in the Minister’s tour, and said the damage to residences was “worse by a long shot” compared to damage from the most recent flood in 2008.

“A lot of the people that we’ve talked to today have lived here since 2008 and lived through 2008, and they said they almost feel bad for complaining during the flood of 2008 because this is so much worse,“ he said. “It’s devastating the damage this has caused.”

As of Monday morning additional volunteers were not needed to help with sandbagging, however, as always, conditions can change overnight. The city also said there will be a need for volunteers in the coming weeks to aid with cleanup in the affected areas. Local residents are asked to continue to monitor the sandbag walls around their homes and pumps, and to call the flood hotline at 613-962-7550 if in need of assistance.

County, developer in talks over affordable housing

By John Campbellford

News - Campbellford - Discussions are continuing between Northumberland County and the developer of a 24-unit affordable housing subdivision on King Street over the rent being charged.

County CAO Elizabeth Savill said the units had been advertised “at a certain rent … and there were concerns raised to the county [by individuals] that those rents may be changing.”

Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan said, “there was a misunderstanding about the rents” which he understands “will be going back to what was originally pro-

posed.”

The units were built with slightly more than $2 million in funding from the federal and provincial governments that had been allocated to the county to increase its affordable housing stock.

When the agreement was struck between Northumberland and Bloor Park Village Inc., the rent was set at $600 a month for each of the 14 one-bedroom units, and $650 per month for the other ten two-bedroom units.

The project was delayed by an Ontario Municipal Board hearing which “put so much pressure on the construction work-

ers it created some havoc,” Macmillan said.

Savill said, “the contribution agreement was very clear that the rents were established to be affordable” in exchange for the government funding, which made it possible for the units to be built.

Bloor Village’s John Spina declined to go public with his comments when contacted but said in an email later he would issue a “a full statement” sometime soon.

She, Mark Darroch, director of community and social services, and two other officials from the county met in camera with Trent Hills council April 15 to give an update on the discussions that have been taking place since February. “[We’re] very hopeful that the whole issue will be resolved very shortly and we’ll be able to fill all the units with people who are so badly needing it in the area,” Cavill said.

Not many are currently occupied.

“We certainly hope they’ll be available very soon,” Savill said.

MPP during a ceremony on April 14, commemorating the inaugural First Responders Day in Ontario, to be held on May 1.

“From providing lifesaving measures, to clearing the roads of snow and debris during storms, to providing a shoulder to lean on in difficult situations, first responders provide us with invaluable support,” Warden Linda Thompson said.

“We thank them for their

dedication to tirelessly ensuring the well-being of Northumberland County residents.”

Council confirmed a proclamation marking the day by honouring all of its service branches, including fire and road maintenance crews from each of the seven member municipalities, the Port Hope and Cobourg Police, the OPP and the County paramedic and roads maintenance crews.

On Dec. 10, 2013, Bill 15, “An Act

to Proclaim First Responders Day” was proclaimed by Royal Assent at the Ontario Legislature.

Each year communities across the province will be gathering to observe and celebrate the sacrifices and hard work of these public servants, Warden Thompson said.

“We live in a safe, strong and vibrant set of communities, thanks in part to the every-day efforts of our local first responders,” she added.

Parents and kids learn the ABCs of starting school

News - Campbellford - The ABCs of preparing for school were the focus of the Road to Kindergarten, a one-stop fun and information event held recently at the Ontario Early Years

Centre (OEYC) here.

“What we want is for the children to feel prepared so they can feel successful,” said Sasha Korper, early literacy consultant for Northumberland County.

The event is put on by the

Parents were able to talk to professionals about their child’s development and learn what they need to know as they prepare for their first day of school in Kindergarten. Photo: Sue Dickens

Northumberland Literacy Committee and is held annually in Cobourg and in Campbellford.

“We’re here for the morning in Campbellford then we go down to Brighton Public School for the afternoon so we can get that whole eastern section covered,” Korper explained.

This is the fourth time the event has been held here and the eighth time for Cobourg.

A new brochure is being made available to parents in the package they receive when registering their children at their school for kindergarten.

“The school boards have been working with us … and are listed on the brochure and they were present when they developed this brochure so everyone is sending the same message,” she explained.

“And that message is, if they love it they learn, that’s the bottom line,” she added.

Play and learn is a big catchphrase used in the Early Years literature.

“In the old days when you and I were going to school there was lots of learning the alphabet, sitting at tables and doing worksheets and now it’s oh look the best way for children to learn is to actually play … so we have crafts, we have face painting, we have blocks and we have opportunities like that at the OEYC which is of course where we are basing this event for children to come with their parents to play,” she noted.

Sandy Stapley, head of the OEYC centre in Campbellford, “is our person on the ground here and that’s key in terms of doing this as a community. She’s our early childhood specialist,” said Korper.

The big challenge these days is that parents lead very busy lives.

“Mostly we see moms at this event, but today we have a dad, yay … but parents are working and they may have an older child, sometimes two, sometimes they have one with special needs … maybe who is a bit slower to develop, maybe they are just young, maybe they are just going to be 3½ when they go into kindergarten so the Road to Kindergarten helps them prepare,” she explained.

Developing routines for the children before they start school is encouraged.

“That way their child is used to the routine. Any change can be upsetting to them,” said Korper, who pointed out that parents aren’t expected to do this alone.

Response to this event has been “excellent,” said Korper.

“The numbers have been increasing every year. At this point we’re maybe getting 30 to 40 families attending.”

“We can’t do this alone and parents are not expected to do this alone, nor are agency people expected to do this alone … the idea is working as a team means we can really support these kids to transition to school effectively.”

Sasha Korper, early literacy consultant, checks out the new brochure that is part of the pack- Sue Hochu, left, dental hygienist from the oral health department of the age given to parents when they register their local health unit out of Port Hope, provided information about good oral children for Kindergarten for the first time.

Macmillan pointed out that the process for deciding the issue was set out in the terms of reference that were set for the steering committee overseeing the completion of the environmental assessment that was begun in 2007 to determine the best location for a new bridge.

“People are very appreciative of getting the help,” he said. “We need to build a better mouse trap on how we’re going to deal with it.”

Trent Hills issued a news release April 17 advising residents experiencing flooding to leave their homes and to find alternative accommodations; “the concern … is possible well contamination and septic system failure.”

They were “strongly encouraged” not to drink or use well water.

The municipality recommended residents prepare an emergency kit with essential supplies, including food, water, medications, copies of prescriptions, and a cellphone; arrange to have water and electricity turned off if recommended by utility companies; notify close friends and family of where they were staying, and lock their homes.

Macmillan said another suggestion made at the public meeting, that the committee make its choice by way of a secret ballot, is “an excellent idea.”

The committee’s terms of reference also provides that municipal and county staff members who sit on the committee will vote in the matter, along with elected officials and representatives of the chamber of commerce, the BIA and the Second Street Residents’ Association.

Macmillan said so far the high water levels haven’t had the same impact as the municipality’s “first real big flood” in 2008, when “there was a lot of unknowns.”

Trent Hills learned from that experience, he said.

“We can be more proactive now rather than responsive.”

Council recently made clear that the municipality in future will no longer build dykes of sandbags in floodprone areas because it costs tens of thousands of dollars annually even though it isn’t the municipality’s responsibility when people’s lives aren’t at risk.

“I know council wants to get out of this business but … I don’t know how we can ever totally get out of it,” the mayor said. “Where do people turn, even if someone wanted to sandbag their own house. They wouldn’t even know where to get the sandbags.”

The mayor said he understands “it’s not a municipal responsibility” to be

News - Trent Hills - Residents won’t be asked which proposed river crossing they prefer for downtown Campbellford.

According to the 2014 Voters’ Guide for Ontario Municipalities and School Board Elections, in order for the question to be put on the ballot in this fall’s municipal election, “it must be about a matter that the municipality has authority for, and that the municipality can implement.”

That rules out Trent Hills because replacement of the bridge over the Trent River, either at the current location, or several hundred metres to the south, between Second and Alma streets, is the responsibility of Northumberland County.

The guide further notes: “There is no ability for members of the public to force a council to put a question on the ballot.”

The idea of putting the controversial issue to a vote was raised at a public information centre held recently at the high school to explain why the Second Street proposal was favoured by the consultant.

In raising the subject last week, Mayor Hector Macmillan told council he would have “absolutely supported” holding a plebiscite on the two bridge options, had it been possible, even though he has reservations about the idea.

“I do have concerns that people wouldn’t have almost seven years of data in front of them so they could actually … make an educated decision,” he

News - Trent Hills - Local officials were keeping a close watch on conditions along the Trent River this week, ready to help evacuate residents from properties where there was flooding.

As of Monday no one had to be helped from their homes even though “water levels had pretty much reached the 2008 levels,” the last time there was a major flood in Trent Hills, Mayor Hector Macmillan said.

“No one has requested an evacuation. If anyone’s left they haven’t told us.”

Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake said firefighters and public works employees built sandbag dykes at 28 residences in Green Acres and along Cedar Drive in Hastings.

“We got all the vulnerable ones we identified from 2008,” he said.

“Some places [that] got hit we can’t do anything for.”

Laurie Beaubien, a Green Acres resident, said she and everyone else in the community near Hoards Station, were “extremely thankful” for the sandbags firefighters and public works staff spent a half-day last week stacking around their residences.

“These guys are so fabulous,” she said.

She moved to Green Acres from Port Hope ten years ago because the area is “beautiful—but it’s very frightening in the spring when flooding happens,” she said. “It’s very worrying.”

Macmillan said “all residents who requested help [got] looked after …

Currently we’re holding our own and we’re able to keep up with the requests.”

He and Blake noted many residents took it upon themselves to protect their properties with sandbags.

“A lot of people are doing their own this year,” Blake said.

MD recruitment efforts making a difference in community well-being

By John Campbellford

News - Trent Hills - The Trent Hills Physician Recruitment and Retention Committee is continuing “to make a difference in the health and wellbeing” of the 30,000 citizens who live in the municipality and surrounding catchment area, says its project co-ordinator.

“The nature of recruitment is such that you are always recruiting,” Laurie Smith told council in her annual report on what’s being done with the $30,000 the committee receives from Trent Hills, which accounts for half of its budget.

“People come, people go.”

Especially in the emergency department at Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) where she’s always on the lookout for additional physicians to work shifts.

Smith told council that “close to 98 per cent” of patients admitted to CMH first go through the emergency department, which sees around 20,000 people a year.

But she also has to find replacements for family practice physicians who are retiring or leaving, in the short term, as well as prepare for the future through succession planning to ensure there’s never a gap in service.

Her target for 2014-2015 is to find two doctors.

Success stories in the past year have included Dr. Kelly Parks setting up a practice locally, Dr. Davina Lansing agreeing to covering another physician’s practice until the end of the year, and Dr. Bruce Bain becoming the new chief of emergency services at the hospital, as of April 1.

Dermatologist Dr. Renita Alhulwalia also held her first clinic in Campbellford this month, added Smith, who’s in discussion with an ear, nose and

throat specialist to provide service in the area as well.

Her role as the committee’s project manager includes taking part in a recruiting tour held every fall and arranging for a half-dozen students from medical school to spend a week in Trent Hills to experience life and the practice of medicine in a small, rural community.

It’s “an eye-opener” for them, she said.

Last year Smith added social media to her tools for attracting physicians, setting up a Facebook page.

“I like to focus more on the culture of the community and hospital,” she said, “something that will show we have more to offer than just a job.”

Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan thanked Smith for her work.

“What you do is obviously working,” she said.

Smith, who works as a physician liaison and ER scheduler at the hospital, said in an interview that “typically it takes 18 months to two years to recruit a physician.”

A common method is through the use of locum (relief) physicians who become familiar with the community and the hospital while filling in for local doctors. That’s how the new president of medical staff, Dr. Joe Barbero, came to stay.

Smith said Trent Hills has provided consistent funding because it understands the importance of recruiting physicians, having experienced a critical shortage more than a decade ago, when many residents were without a doctor.

The municipality is still designated as an underserviced area, which means the province will make available $80,000 over four years to physicians to set up a practice in the community.

Madoc man proves age is a state of mind and work

By Diane Sherman

Sports – Madoc – Madoc Township resident Mark Godfrey decided to get back into alpine ski racing during the winter of 2012, after a lapse of 20 years.

By the end of last winter he was “only finishing in the middle of the pack,” he says. “So I decided to try harder.”

Commendable one might say, but for Godfrey it was a “thrill” to be back on the racing circuit, which he began in high school in the late 1950s.

Godfrey, now in his early seventies, took four gold medals during a series of alpine race competitions in British Colombia this March.

He started training at the Batawa Ski Club when the 2013 season opened, and in Collingwood a couple of times, then felt confident enough to try the 2014 Alpine race season out west.

He is a member of Alpine Ontario racing.

When he graduated from high school he took a world tour, hitchhiking and working for three years. When he returned to attend York University, he joined their ski team and raced with the Don Valley Racers. From 1987 to 1993 he skied in Alpine Masters competitions. Then he changed his focus.

He took up farming in Madoc Township, where he and his brother managed Godfrey Growers, producing sauerkraut and pickles for Shopsy’s and Schneider food companies. He also taught in schools and coached the Alpine ski team at Centre Hastings Secondary School.

Over the years he kept up with sports and physical exercise: windsurfing, paddleboarding, cross country skiing, hiking and canoeing, along with 30 years of Tai Chi, but returning to ski racing was the final challenge.

Godfrey took a gold medal in his age category

9%!23

at Naskiska, B.C. in the Western Alpine competitions, and three golds at the nationals in Kimberley, B.C. March 27 to 30.

He returned home April 1 with Alpine Canada’s National Masters championship.

The field of racers may not have been great in numbers for his age group, but, the years of skiing success for seven members of the U75 category of Alpine racers, aged 70 to 75, had a remarkable track record on the slopes.

Godfrey says, “It’s really not a big deal, but, I am thrilled to have been racing again. Racing is different than just skiing. One can’t ski fast at a club, it is too dangerous. When racing we can go really fast, you’re alone on the slope.”

The final hill was the Kimberley slope, with a vertical drop of 460 meters, descending from 1,770 meters above sea level. Godfrey finished with a minute and a half record for the slalom.

The final challenge took the elder racers down one of the more difficult slopes, once used by the legendary Crazy Canucks and Steve Podborski.

Those he raced with remember those days back in the seventies.

Godfrey says anyone who wants to race in Canada can become a member of the Alpine racers association. To join, racers must pay dues and competition fees, which cover insurance and helps maintain professional race standards.

The association is something like an actor’s guild.

Godfrey’s success speaks to the benefits that come from early training and continuing to stay determined all the way into the elder years.

Madoc Township resident Mark Godfrey is no longer the young ski racer of his earlier days, yet he has proven that age doesn’t have to slow one down.

He returned from British Colombia April 1 with four gold medals in Alpine slalom skiing and the Canadian National Masters Championship in his age category of Under 75. Photo: Diane Sherman

New capital campaign for Quinte Humane Society

News - Belleville - The Quinte Humane Society (QHS) is looking to ditch their old and outdated facility once and for all, and this year are launching a new capital campaign to help raise funds to build a brand-new animal shelter for the over 3,000 animals that pass through their doors each and every year.

In all, the Quinte Humane Society is looking to raise roughly $1.2 million to help construct a new, 7,000-square-foot facility somewhere in the Belleville area. The QHS has been at their current site at 527 Avonlough Road since the early 1970s, and today the site is in desperate need of repair and renovation if it plans to continue serving as an animal shelter, but QHS community and

Big changes for Waterfront Festival

By Steve Jessel

News - Belleville - The Belleville Waterfront and Ethnic Festival is celebrating its 30th anniversary this summer, and organizers have some events, activities and big musical acts lined up this year that they’re hoping will appeal to festival-goers of all ages.

Taking place this year from July 9 to 13 at West Zwicks Park in Belleville, perhaps the biggest change to the event this year is the inclusion of an extra night of entertainment.

The festival generally begins on a Thursday evening, but this year organizers have arranged for the Canadian Indie Music Festival to kick things off on Wednesday, July 9, featuring well-known Canadian punk band Gob and local group Rye and Silence.

“The Wednesday evening is going to be targeting a different demographic,” said Belleville Chamber of Commerce CEO Bill Saunders.

The Canadian Independent Music Festival premiered at last year’s event, and while Saunders said he was pleased with the audience turnout, he wasn’t sure that the type of music at the event was particularly appealing to the predominately family-aged crowds. Saunders said the same goes for younger audiences with regards to some of the 80s and 90s music that’s played during the festival.

“It’s our 30th anniversary, and we’ve reached into the past to bring some of our well-renowned and well-respected local bands to fill up Saturday, for what we call ‘Waterfront Rocks,’” Saunders said.

Belleville-based Beatles cover group All You Need is Love will headline the Saturday musical performances, while musical tributes to Johnny Cash, Tina Turner, Donna Summer, Neil Diamond, Bon Jovi, The Eagles, Journey, the Guess Who, the Kinks, Doobie Brothers, and The Supremes take place throughout the weekend. Saturday will also feature the finalists from Belleville’s Got Talent, a new event organized by the Quinte Humane Society. Also returning to the Waterfront Festival this year will be the ethnic food village and a wide range of vendors, and Saunders said the kid’s activity area has doubled in size as compared to last year.

The Chamber took over the organization of the Waterfront Festival roughly eight years ago, after the city became concerned with the prevalence of alcohol during the annual event. Saunders said attendance to the now family-oriented event has slowly grown since then, attracting some 35,000 people in 2013. Approximately 3,500 festival goers came from outside the region in 2011, Saunders said.

“Importantly, we have a core of local folks that come, but we’re seeing increased attention from outside the area,” Saunders said.

The event is free to attend but parking costs $2. A shuttle service from downtown to the festival is also being arranged.

fund development co-ordinator Cheryl Lepine said that would only be a temporary solution to a larger problem.

“We are being told we have to make some major improvements if we are going to stay here,” she said. “But that’s basically putting a band-aid on something that’s really never going to work for us anyways.”

Ventilation, a shot septic system and boiling hot temperatures during the summer are just a few of the problems with the current building, which was never designed as an animal shelter to begin with.

“We just find it is far too small for our needs right now,” Lepine said.

The shelter finds itself regularly overcrowded with cats and dogs during the warmer months of the year. The building is also not wheel-chair accessible.

“We also find that it’s not very appealing; it’s old, it’s dated, it’s run down and so that’s not attracting people in, and unfortunately when people don’t come in, animals don’t get adopted,” Lepine said.

Plans for a new building are still in the works, but Lepine said they would like to build a one-storey, 7,000-square-foot facility that also contains a sterile area for on-site spay and neuter operations. Currently, the QHS spends time and resources bringing animals to local veterinarians to have them fixed.

“If we had our own, and if we could hire a veterinarian part time, or maybe a veterinarian would donate their time, that would really increase our ability to get more animals spayed and neutered,” Lepine said.

Other possible additions include a quarantine area for incoming animals, more storage areas, meet and greet rooms for prospective owners, additional kennels for cats and dogs, an outdoor cattery, and an outdoor dog run.

“We’re really trying to focus on getting something that’s bigger and brighter,” Lepine said.

The QHS has approached the city in the past looking for a possible land donation but were told at the time that nothing fitting their needs was available. Lepine said she plans on speaking to the city again this week.

The official launch of the capital campaign won’t likely be for a few weeks while drawings are finalized and the QHS web site is updated, but an account has already been set up for funds for a new facility, and Lepine said they’ll take any and all donations to the project.

As always, the need for a new shelter wouldn’t exist if all pets were spayed and neutered, something that’s especially important with the breeding season approaching. Lepine said the shelter receives as many as 40 cats a day during the spring and summer

When the Rock Acres Peace Festival invaded Queensborough

The beat goes on at Lions Club jam sessions

By Judy Backus

Entertainment- Marmora - Another very successful Sunday afternoon jam session hosted by members of the Marmora Crowe Valley Lions Club took place on April 13 when 150 country music enthusiasts gathered at the Community Centre to listen to, or dance to, a total of 14 different acts. While members of the audience pay an entry fee of $5, the entertainers, who arrived from as far away as Belleville and Harlow, are admitted at no charge.

The final jam of the season will take place on the second Sunday of May with a free buffet being available to all. The Vern and Monique Mackey were among the many to entertain during the Crowe Valley Lions Club April 13 jam session. The couple, who will soon celebrate their 55th wedding anniversary, presented a song, Our Hearts Beat Together As One, a meaningful piece which Vern had written to mark their 40th anniversary Photo: Judy Backus

next season of this ongoing and very popular activity is scheduled to begin in October, again on the second Sunday of the month.

Leo Provost, who chairs the events which he says have been ongoing for the past ten years, commented mid-afternoon that this had been a very successful season and was one the club members were all happy with.

Rick Lees of Thomasburg shares memories and momentos of the 1971 Rock Acres Peace Festival, which attracted many thousands of counter cultural music lovers to the Queensborough area. Photo: Brett Mann (Right) This copy of a poster for the 1971 Rock Acres Peace Festival shows most of the bands who played to thousands of fans near Queensborough.

tival 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 go-

ers, 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.

“We built our own sanitation facilities, just outhouses along long trenches,” said Lees. The 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 fes-

Entertainment – Thomasburg – On a “perfect” August weekend in 1971 the hamlet of Queensborough was visited by large throngs of music fans, flower children and hippies, drawn by the Rock Acres Peace Festival. The Central Hastings News had 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.

“We had about 29 bands altogether, all of them big names, some of them still around or making a comeback,” said Lees. “Our ticket outlets were Sam the Record Man stores across Canada, but we started advertising in the US. We had people there from Germany, Scotland, England, many European states and there were quite a few Americans. It 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 pres-

Zoning approved for GCL Developments on Old Highway 2 News - Quinte West - It’s been a long ten years but it looks like the subdivision on Old Highway 2 will finally go through.

“It’s been a long haul,” commented Jim Harrison to the developers at the Planning Advisory Committee meeting on April

17. “I commend you.”

An amendment to zoning will create five more lots and one townhouse as part of a subdivision that is located on the north side of Old Highway 2 between Bayside Secondary School and the Burns Avenue residential subdivision. The amendment permits a slight reduction in front yard setbacks from six to 1.2 metres.

“This is consistent with existing zones,” said Brian Jardine, director of planning and development.

Kevin Burley of 65 Burns Avenue expressed opposition to the plan. “How many times has this been amended?” he asked.

Jardine said there have been a number of revisions. “This has been on the go for a number of years,” he said. “There have been significant design changes. We are close to a final design.”

Burley asked what would hap-

pen to the last two homes on Burns Avenue. Jardine said there will be no change to those homes on the north side.

Burley added, “We can’t afford to have heavy equipment on Burns Avenue. It is already in terrible condition.”

He said the road cuts into the community. He had understood there would be no more access to Burns Avenue.

Chair Ron Hamilton said this will be discussed later.

Burley commented that the increase in the number of homes means more density and more profits for the builders.

Jardine said the province supports maximum density in subdivisions. “This development is not even close to that,” he said.

Burley wanted to know if the road would cut into Burns Avenue. Jardine said traffic is not filtered into Burns Avenue. The actual configuration will come

later. He said some driveways may come out onto the new road.

The revised subdivision plan includes 176 single detached residential lots, an internal road network, 71 residential townhouse units and municipal parkland.

Jardine said the revised redline amendment changes conditions on the draft approval to allow a more traditional gravity fed sewage system into clarifier tanks. A communal sewage disposal system will be located on the south side of Old Highway 2.

The Stone Crest Estates subdivision received draft approval in November, 2012. The amendment results in five more residential lots and one townhouse unit.

The additional lots were achieved by reducing the lot frontage. The draft conditions stated that each resident would have its own on-

Farmers’ market getting ready for May opening

By Kate Everson

News - Trenton - The Front Street farmers’ market is getting ready for the 2014 season.

“We have 18 vendors signed up,” said John Harris, chair of the farmers’ market sub-committee of the Economic Development and Revitalization Committee.

“That’s three dailies and 15 seasonal.”

He said they had 37 last year come in at different times of the season, depending on the type of produce they were selling.

“It’s never completely full,” he said.

Linda Lisle, manager of Economic Development, said the structure will be painted this spring.

“City staff are currently working with Glenn Phinnemore, Wilby Contracting, with respect to the painting,” she said. “This capital project is expected to begin the week of April 21 and be completed prior to opening day on Saturday, May 3.”

The market will be open each Thursday and Saturday morning until November 1.

Lisle added that a contract with Quinte Access has allowed for advertising the market on the side of two city buses for six months.

A new market clerk Kait Tuttle has been hired. Bob Gates has again accepted the position of assistant.

City staff are working with Harvest Hastings to create and update vendor profiles to be posted on the city web site to showcase the local vendors.

Andrew Kostsovos said there is still a problem with parking on Front Street.

Economic Development Committee chair Paul Whitley said, “There is an issue competing for parking and also at the farmers’ market.

The city is looking at options.”

Lisle said the parking garage rates are very reasonable. Whitley asked if the Crossroads church had agreed to give up any parking spaces but Lisle said they are not open to that option.

RiverFront Square is also getting ready for spring. The city is working with potential businesses to sponsor live music in the pedestrian plaza for 10 weeks from Saturday, June 21, to August 30.

Doug Whitney noted that the DBIA office is moving from the old town hall to the Rock 107 building at Front and Dundas Street West as of May 1.

Businessman sets course for career in local politics

Councillor raises questions over cost-of-living pay adjustments

News - Trent Hills - The municipality’s 16 non-union municipal employees have been given a two per cent pay increase, although one councillor had “a bit of a problem” with the rationale used to support the decision: a cost-ofliving adjustment to match that given more than 60 unionized staff.

Councillor Kim MacNeil agreed “it’s useful to pay people properly in management” but the increase shouldn’t be tied to what was agreed upon in a union contract.

She said she would be “happier” to see the non-union group be given a one per cent raise more in line with the recent trend in the consumer price index.

CAO Mike Rutter made the recommendation for a two per cent adjustment, saying in his report to council the practice has been to give non-union staff cost of living adjustments similar to what the municipality’s unionized workers receive “to maintain the gap between our front line and management positions, to ensure we remain competitive when recruiting, and to retain our existing staff.”

“I don’t think it’s a good mechanism,” commented MacNeil, who said she supported pay raises where there has been a change in responsibility or when there’s a vacant position that needs to be filled with a qualified person.

By giving out “blanket” increases, “all you’re doing is having bracket creep for everything, you’re just adding expense everywhere,” she said.

Councillor Bill Thompson said a two per cent wage increase “is not very much” and council has a history of hiring “the best staff” it can and keeping their salary updated.

Councillor Rosemary KelleherMacLennan spoke in favour of a two per cent increase across the board “so all our employees are treated fairly,” which helps retain staff and reduces the likelihood of their leaving, and then having to find replacements, who need to be trained, which costs time and money.

Rutter said the overall cost to the municipality added up to $22,000.

“It’s the principle, not the dollar amount,” MacNeil said, pointing there are “other tools to reward management and performance is one of them.”

Rutter said “the challenge” with tying employees’ performance to the achieving of corporate goals is that it’s “probably to be more expensive, not less expensive.”

Mayor Hector Macmillan said Trent Hills “is in the middle of the pay grid” for municipalities in Northumberland County in what it pays its employees.

Rutter said “here are many reasons staff stay and I suspect that salary is not at the top of the list,” but that Trent Hills “is a great place to work.”

He agreed there is a “need to look at a better system,” where merit pay increases are aligned with “very specific, very measurable objectives.”

been vocal on two controversial issues, vigorously opposing granting ATVs access to 85 kilometres of municipal roads in Trent Hills, and building a river crossing between Alma and Second streets to handle half the traffic in downtown Campbellford.

“I’ve always had a longstanding interest in the community,” he says.

“I really believe in the lifestyle and enjoy the lifestyle in the Municipality of Trent Hills and everything it has to offer.”

Along with that comes “some firm opinions, of course,” he adds. “Every-

body running for council should have, and be prepared to express what they ... believe in, and the direction they would like to see the municipality go.”

Boyd was a member of the Warkworth Kinsmen Club when it was the driving force behind the building of the arena.

After moving here from Toronto in 1975, he worked as a carpenter and general contractor before launching Clarion, which restores antique and classic wooden boats as well as designs and builds new versions.

“We’ve grown that from a 3,000-square-foot facility [in a former marina] to a 9,000-square-foot facility,” he says.

“With the business background I have a pretty good understanding of how things should operate, and contributing to the running of a municipality is really quite similar.”

You have to be fiscally responsible, do what’s in the best interests of the corporation, and “come to the realization that you can’t have everything. You have to work within your means.”

Pilot project to divert excess food News - Belleville - A new pilot project in Prince Edward-Hastings is attempting to tackle the ongoing issue of food insecurity in the region, and co-chair Steve van de Hoef said the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Second Helpingsâ&#x20AC;? initiative is a step in the right direction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Statistically thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of produce and fresh produced food thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to waste, all over the place,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have the second highest rate of counties in Ontario for food insecurity, both moderate and severe. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s obvious that people in our communities are going hungry, and this program is part of larger efforts to address those

issues.â&#x20AC;?

Officially launched at Loyalist College on Thursday last week, Second Helpings is a collaborative effort of a joint working group of members from both the Food Security Network and the Children and Youth Services Network, who together are comprised of representatives from over 60 social service and community organizations.

The purpose of the project is food reclamationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;to divert surplus perishable foods from food producers and facilitate its distribution to organizations who serve individuals who are experiencing food insecurity.

The first phase of the project

will link Loyalist College food service provider Aramark, with the volunteers at Bridge Street United Churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Inn From the Coldâ&#x20AC;? program. Inn from the Cold distributed over 4,000 hot meals this past winter, and in all, the Bridge Street United Church Food Ministry program says it delivers about 10,000 meals each year between their two programs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have kickstarted it today and our plan is to build additional partnerships and really get this rolling,â&#x20AC;? said committee member Maribeth DeSnoo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is an incredibly positive step forward, and I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evidence that it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily

take raising funds, just taking what would have been thrown out and re-purposing it.â&#x20AC;?

Food security is a multi-faceted term that broadly refers to being free from hunger. According to the Canadian Community Health Survey, 9.9 per cent of all households in Hastings and Prince Edward counties experienced food insecurity in 2011-

2012, which works out to roughly 16,000 people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After reviewing other successful food reclamation projects in the province, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pleased to be launching our own pilot project that will link Loyalist College food service provider, Aramark, with the volunteers at Bridge Street United Churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Inn From the

Scouts will canvas for tree planting support

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - The 1st Hastings Scouts will be canvassing door-to-door April 28 to help support their tree-planting efforts as part of the Kawartha Waterways team that will be hard at work early in May. The Hastings Scouts will join their peers in Cavan Township on May 3 with each member planting 25 trees as part of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Scout Trees initiative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With your donation you are helping the next generation of Canadians to plant the next generation of trees,â&#x20AC;? says Hastings Scout leader MJ Stevenson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not only are you supporting an excellent program that helps teach youth respect for nature and the importance of stopping climate change, your donation will plant trees to offset carbon.â&#x20AC;?

Because Scouts Canada is a volunteer-based organization and all planting is done as part of the Scoutrees program, local donations will stay within the 1st Hastings Scouting movement with 30 per cent going to the World Brotherhood Fund and the Scoutrees program.

In the early 1970s, Canadian Scouting formally undertook a national project that was then known The Second Helpings pilot project was launched Thursday at Loyalist College; Loyalist College president Maureen Piercy, Kelly as Trees for Canada.

Scouts Canada has now renamed this project Scoutrees and this coming spring 16,000 Scouts will plant another 200,000 trees bringing to over 80 million the total number of trees planted since 1972.

As a national environmental program, Scoutrees was created to do a number of things including reforesting Canada and reclaim waste areas, involving youth with the outdoors and helping them to develop an awareness of conservation, providing an instructional program about conservation and forestry for the Scouting movement, to offer a beneficial outdoor program that would reinforce Scoutingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current programs and badges and to boost Scoutingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public image.

Through Scoutrees the youth learn the important role trees play in helping the environment and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re planted as windbreaks to help reduce soil erosion from wind and rain. They also provide wildlife habitat for birds and other animals.

Stevenson thanks all those who support the Hastings Scouting team and says that people who were not at home when canvassers called can still make a donation by calling her at 705-696-2296.

Not your regular day of golf Sports – Belleville – There’s a new golf tournament in town: Frisbee Golf, or Disc Golf in support of Eastminster United Church and Camp Quin-Mo-Lac will be played May 4, at East Zwicks Park in Belleville.

It’s a family friendly event, and one that organizer Ryan Williams says can be an example of a great fundraiser for other events.

“Think of the great fundraising that is done at many of our golf courses each year, and add a complete family element to it,” says Williams. “Disc Golf is fun to play,

and relatively easy to pick-up. Having Zwicks Park to play at makes it all the more of a top-notch event in the City.”

The Eastminster Loves Quin-MoLac Tournament, May 4 at 1:30 p.m. is open to anyone who wants to play Disc Golf at the Park, and for $20 per adult, and only $5 for 18 or under, will include your own ‘Disc’ and lunch.

Sponsors for holes are still sought at only $150 per hole. Email Ryan to register at ryanwilliams@sympatico. ca.

“This is a great fundraiser, and especially for funds that will go to Camp Quin-Mo-Lac - the United Church non-for-profit camp located on Moira Lake in Tweed which to me has always been close to our family’s heart”.

Most of the Williams Family has been involved with, worked at, or has attended the non-for-profit camp over the years. Ryan’s grandfather Don is remembered for having said: “You send a kid to camp for a week and you change their life forever.”

The Disc Golf Course is a rental, and is supplied by Ultimate Disc Ontario, who have brought Ultimate Disc Games to Belleville several times.

Williams hopes that multiple Disc tournaments, as well as interest through residents, will result in a permanent course at Zwicks.

“We will be back for the next several years, and as a family-friendly fundraising event … There should be momentum soon to see a course permanently on East Zwicks.”

Lace up your walking shoes for Belleville’s second annual Jane’s Walk

Events – Belleville - Since 2007, Jane’s Walk has been encouraging people around the world to explore their communities on foot. Called “an extravaganza of pedestrian urban love” this global event honours urban activist Jane Jacobs, whose 1961 book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities, called for a more humane approach to city living, one that fosters healthy neighbourhoods and communities.

walk leaders and participants was carefully considered in the planning of this year’s event.

As a result, walks will be held at different times (rain or shine) making it possible to participate in all of them. “There is something for everyone,” White notes.

Each of the informative walks will be led by experts and participants are encouraged to share their personal stories and perspectives with the group. Marianne Scott, one of the Jane’s Walk 2014 volunteer coordinators, says the event is a “must for civic leaders, planners and architects who would like to hear different opinions and perspectives about the city in an informal setting.”

Following Walk #2 (“Downtown Possibilities”), a “Jane’s Talk” will be held on Saturday, May 3 at 3 p.m. at the Build Belleville Project Centre at 116 Pinnacle Street. For more information about Jane’s Walk Belleville 2014, go to www.janeswalk.org/Canada/Belleville

Belleville hosted the city’s firstever Jane’s Walk, which is always held on the first weekend in May to coincide with Jane Jacobs’ birthday. Hundreds of enthusiastic participants turned out to take part in one or more of the three (free) guided walks.

This year, the second annual Jane’s Walk will be held on Saturday, May 3 and Sunday, May 4 and will include a fourth walk to encourage even more residents to lace up and explore the waterfront and downtown neighbourhoods.

In light of the Build Belleville plan to revitalize the city centre, Jane’s Walk provides a no-cost way to get up close and personal with the past, present and future of Belleville and with the hearts and minds of its citizens. “Its always wise to learn about our past before we decide our future,” says Susan White, retired professor of journalism at Loyalist College and chair of the 2013 Jane’s Walk committee.

ENSS Blue Dragons roar at Ottawa meet

By Ray Yurkowski

Sports - Ottawa - East Northumberland Secondary School (ENSS) athletes competed under the Dome last week at the fourth Ottawa Lions high school series track and field meet. The competition served as a tune up for the 2014 Bay of Quinte season, which marks the third straight year the team has no training facility at the school.

And despite the challenge, the 43 local students who made the trip shone, turning in 22 medal performances: five gold, four silver and 13 bronze.

“This was a good meet to gauge their early season training and adjust accordingly as we move outdoors this week,” said coach Tim Larry.

“Combined with the extremely cold spring, it has made training very difficult.”

Packed house for Havelock gun show

By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 389 in Havelock got a nice boost from gun and military memorabilia collectors and enthusiasts who ďŹ&#x201A;ocked to town from around the province Saturday.

The gun and military show organized

by Don Martin and held in the Branchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s upstairs hall drew a large crowd and 30 vendor tables with all of the proceeds going to Branch 389. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re quite happy for the turnout,â&#x20AC;? said Martin, a dedicated collector for over 50 years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was deďŹ nitely packed; they were lined up at the door and you could hardly get a parking spot. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very pleased.â&#x20AC;?

Vendors from as far away as Sudbury, Niagara Falls and Montreal were at the Havelock show which followed a closely observed ďŹ rearms protocol that was strictly enforced. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the money is being donated to our Legion,â&#x20AC;? said Martin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We think about the veterans that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come back and what we can do for the people who are still here to help our Legion. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of our history and we have some new veterans now and we have to show them the same encouragement too and to get as many other people as we can interested to support our Legions.â&#x20AC;?

Martin is a long-time and keen collector and student of the famous line of Winchester riďŹ&#x201A;es.

Among those in his display were three model 65 Winchesters; there were only 5,107 manufactured and they were made in three calibres, Martin explained.

Those three calibres were the 218-B, 2530 and 32-30. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got them all,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re almost impossible to ďŹ nd. I got lucky.â&#x20AC;?

One of the Model 65â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, the Trapper 25-35, was made in 1906. The craftsmanship, Martin says, is â&#x20AC;&#x153;extraordinary.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been collecting since I was 15 or 16 and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be 70 next year. I just like them; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a well-made gun. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very desirable.â&#x20AC;?

Winchester is no longer in business and is now known as U.S. Repeating Arms Company, the current name of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got some of the original stuff from New Haven, Connecticut,â&#x20AC;? Martin Please see â&#x20AC;&#x153;Enthusiastsâ&#x20AC;? on page B2

Instructor comes clean on making soap

By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - What do beeswax, lamb fat and lye crystals have in common?

These are just some of the ingredients used during a workshop taught

by Susan Chan, who came clean on the art of making soap, at one of several workshops offered by The Abundance Project.

The series began with The Amazing Vegetable Race and wrapped up

with a Raised Bed and Container Gardening workshop.

The Abundance Project is a community based organization focused on promoting healthy eating, sustainable growing practices and food preparation skills under the guidance of coordinator David Lyon.

Soap making was so popular that spaces in two subsequent workshops were filled quickly by interested residents.

Chan, who is project manager of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Farms at Work,â&#x20AC;? is a consultant in agriculture and pollination biology â&#x20AC;Ś and she makes her own soap in her spare time.

Chan agreed to take her teaching skills and interest in soap making to the community of Warkworth.

The Abundance Project relies on a network of volunteers, like Chan, to plan and deliver a wide variety of food related workshops and projects.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m an educator and enjoy working with people,â&#x20AC;? she told the Trent Hills Independent.

Because Chan makes her own soap she wanted to share those skills with others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Soap making is kind of like making bread, you mix ingredients and have to wait â&#x20AC;Ś although the active part is actually not very long,â&#x20AC;? she commented.

She shared with workshop participants Please see â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cleanâ&#x20AC;? on page B2

Something fishy is happening at the Tweed Library Entertainment - Mystery writer Hilary MacLeod will be the featured speaker at the Tweed Public Library on Thursday, May 1, at 7 p.m. She appears as part of the library’s Writers Series, sponsored by the Friends of the Tweed Library.

MacLeod, a Prince Edward County resident, is the author of the popular Shores Mystery series. Her first novel, Revenge of the Lobster Lover, won the CBC’s Bookie Award in 2011. Three other mysteries followed, Mind Over Mussels, All Is Clam and Something Fishy.

The novels are set on a small fictional island on the Atlantic coast and feature quirky and eccentric characters.

MacLeod, who summers on Prince Edward Island where she got her inspiration for the setting of the novels, is a former CBC radio morning show host and professor at the School of Media Studies at Loyalist College in Belleville.

For further information, go to www.tweedlibrary. ca .

Clean as a whistle Continued from page B1

what she referred to as “a foolproof soap recipe.”

“The recipe I was giving out at the workshop has never failed me,” she said.

“This is the way it has always been made on farms for generations,” she added.

Chan pointed out that homemade soap is cheaper than store bought soap “in the long run.”

“Sixty dollars will get you 50 bars of soap,” she said.

“This is a very desirable soap, not soft, not hard and very good on your skin,” she added.

Chan said making soap can

be a lot of fun as the traditions of previous generations get passed along as people “get back to the basics.”

Workshop participants agreed.

“I have never done this before and I will try it at home after. I am definitely interested in using natural products,” said Kim Watson of Warkworth.

Laura Easter, who has a dairy farm near Warkworth, was among the eight women who took part in one of the recent workshops.

“I tried making soap before and failed so I came for some

critiquing,” she said with a grin.

“We have a farm and plenty of fat available, one of the key ingredients to making soap. It’s making use of our resources,” she added.

Chan, who does her own canning and preserving and makes her own hand cream and lip balm as well, said, “I like to share this knowledge with other people. It’s very satisfying.”

said alluding to the evolving company’s historic roots which began in the mid-1850s in Connecticut.

“It’s top-quality stuff.”

Two of Martin’s rifles are engraved by Pauline Muerrle, the only woman to work as a custom shop engraver for Winchester.

Another of his rifles is engraved

by Nick Kusmit who did custom work for Clark Gable and Roy Rogers.

The rifles, he says, are very hard to track down.

“There was a lot of leg work.”

Shows like the one in Havelock (another is scheduled for September 6) and others around

the province allow collectors like Martin to do a little networking and share information and knowledge of collections.

“Some people think we’re all bad because we’re gun owners; we’re not. It’s harder to get a firearms licence than it is to get a passport. It’s part of our history.”

Auto show returning to the fairgrounds News - Stirling - With stakes in the ground at the fairgrounds to mark vendor areas, organizers of Stirling’s Annual Automotive and Antique Flea Market are left with little to do but prepare for the crowds.

And the crowds, says show Co-Chair Jeremy Solmes, could reach 10,000. “It’s always busy,” he says of the springtime ritual that has seen significant growth and changes over the years and is now administered by the Stirling Agricultural Society. The annual event now regularly sees crowds of 5,000 or more on opening day, Solmes says and, scheduled for May 3 and 4 at the fairgrounds and recreation

centre, this year’s edition will again feature more than 500 vendors offering a range of antique cars, parts and automobilia. But Solmes, reflecting on the early days and the show’s humble beginnings more than 40 years ago in a Spring Brook driveway, has always been a supporter.

“My grandfather [Roy Solmes] started it,” notes Solmes, adding, “that’s why I got involved.” And he admits there are plenty of other auto enthusiasts in the area who flock to Stirling every year to check out the hardware.

Solmes explains that vendors are primarily related to the automotive industry, selling parts and vehicle related products, but typically there are also a

range of toys, souvenirs and clothing on offer as well. “There really is something for everyone,” says Solmes, noting for many the show has become a family event. Not only are there plenty of vintage vehicles to admire, parts and components for nearly every make and model, and experts in all areas mechanical, visitors can often find that much-wanted treasure that has eluded them for years. Business is usually brisk on opening day, Solmes says, with many enthusiasts arriving early.

Undoubtedly, he says, traffic through the village will be heavy and some delays can be expected in and around the fairgrounds.

Rednersville film fest prepares for launch

Stirling’s Annual Automotive and Antique Flea Market is scheduled for the weekend of May 3 and 4 at the arena and fairgrounds and Co-Chair Jeremy Solmes says significant crowds are expected for the springtime event.

Entertainment - Rednersville - Organizers of the first Rednersville International Film Festival (RIFF) are gearing up for the launch of what Active Arts Studio owner Jeff Keary promises will be an unforgettable experience for music and film fans.

“This is a unique event for several reasons,” says Keary, who lives with his wife Tracey in a converted church on Barley Road that regularly doubles as a concert hall, recording studio, art gallery and theatre, where a variety of performances and exhibitions have been hosted in recent months. The RIFF begins this Friday with the weekend screenings focusing on the work of director Martin Scorsese, including The Band’s The Last Waltz, and will feature special guest and the film’s original sound editor Rob Fraboni at the opening.

“We have a unique stellar sound system from Tenor Audio and Tetra,” explains Keary, “[and] these companies do not have dealers or showrooms … There is literally nowhere in the world that this combination of amp and loudspeaker can be heard.”

And for only the third time ever, he adds, Fraboni’s “unique, personal, definitive and publicly unavailable twochannel audio version” will be presented.

“Rob has devised a new technology called RealFeel and all the movies we are showing have been treated with this system which is designed to improve sound quality and thereby picture quality too,” Keary says.

Friday’s opening will be followed by Martin Scorsese Day on Saturday which will include the films Mean Streets, Taxi Driver and a second screening of The Last Waltz. There will be other events scheduled through the week including opportunities for private listening sessions where visitors will have a chance to hear their favourite material, he says. On May 3, more music is on the RIFF schedule

vendors and two full days of automotive indulgence.

And while there has been recent flooding, Solmes adds, the weather has been more co-operative recently as well. There were a few concerns about water levels this spring, he notes, but the fairgrounds have dried up significantly in recent days and the site is expected to be in ideal condition for the show.

Doors open to the public at 7 a.m. on both Saturday and Sunday (May 3 and 4) with an admission price of $5 per person.

Parking is free as well as admission for children under 12.

LIFESTYLES

The Good Earth: The right plant?

Dan Clost

Lifestyles - Welcome spring! Welcome gardeners back to the nursery! It is a pleasure to see you all cluttering up the place again. After all, this is what we’re all about. By now, you will have

thumb-eared every plant guide and seed catalogue, memorised whole pages of whatever gardening bible you follow and you’re ready to get going.

I’m going to attempt to slow you down just a titch; please don’t trample me in the mad rush to get this year’s perfect plant before anyone else. Is it, indeed, the perfect plant? Let’s go over a few discussion points before you plop three of them on the nursery wagon.

Here is a realism; although some might read a titch of cynicism in this statement, I assure you there is none: all gardens are artificial constructs, even the most carefully created “natural”

plot. This should be seen as a freedom statement; in other words, since it is something you are creating, you have no constraints beyond the practical.

Practical, in this sense, deals with the plant’s ability to live in its new environment.

In our nursery and in all of the other nurseries and garden centres, even those that magically sprout atop asphalt, we sell plants that we know will grow in your garden. (Caveat: as long as we know where that garden is. For example, a big leafed hydrangea might be rated to Canadian Winter Hardiness Zone 6. If you’re down in the County

you have no worries. If you’re in the Quinte area, you need to provide your plant with some winter mulch to protect the crown. If you’re up in Tweed, you’ve already skipped to the next paragraph.) So, some plants may require a bit of special attention; some will thrive on benign neglect. It is not in our interest, or yours, for us to stock plants that aren’t going to survive and, indeed, thrive.

Let’s assume that the plant you have chosen will do very well on your estate. A prudent purchaser might worry about price. Here are two considerations. The first is to compare apples to

A few spaces left for watercolour workshop by Marc Gagnon

By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - There are still a few spaces left to sign up for Marc L. Gagnon’s two-day watercolour workshop.

He is returning to Warkworth to teach after adjudicating the Warkworth Maple Syrup Festival Art Show and doing a free demo.

The workshop called “Abstracting the Landscape” will showcase his

Full-time watercolour and acrylic artist Marc L. Gagnon is holding a two-day workshop at the Warkworth Town Hall Centre for the Arts on May 3 and 4. There are a few spaces left for those interesting in participating. Photo: Submitted

watercolour techniques and he will be teaching participants how it is done.

Trained as an architect, and later discovering art, he successfully combined his love of architecture and painting to create dramatic works in watercolour and acrylics.

He has also been a juror for various exhibitions.

Gagnon teaches water media painting at venues throughout Ontario and in his home gallery at Newcastle.

He was president of The Canadian Society of Painters in Watercolour from 2005 until 2007, and has shown in major exhibitions.

He is a full time watercolour and acrylic painter and holds degrees in Environmental Studies and Architecture, from the University of Waterloo.

He practised architecture for over 25 years.

“I gain my strongest inspiration from both manmade structures and the natural environment. I begin

the creative process by trying to understand what I feel about a subject and why,” he stated.

“My sketch book is my greatest tool. Sketching, broad strokes and loose colour mixing, scratching with big brushes, rubbing with a rag, and scraping with a knife all work to pull the ideas together.”

The announcement of the upcoming workshop was made by Spirit of the Hills Northumberland Arts Association which is active in the area and brings juried shows and sales here along with featured artists such as Gagnon.

The workshop will be held Saturday, May 3, and Sunday, May 4, at Warkworth Town Hall Centre for The Arts.

To register go to <www. spiritofthehills.org> or call 705-924-9294.

apples even if you’re buying a cherry tree. There is a price and then there is a value attendant to that price. When comparison shopping and making it a given that the plant is healthy, check out the size of both plant and container. Ask about a warranty. Some outlets have none (don’t buy it), but most have from one to three years and, if they’re part of the Myke program, up to five years. Another factor to consider is the quality of the store staff. Can they give you a healthy plant, warranty, related products and accurate advice?

The second and this is my best advice aka Dan’s rule number two: buy the smallest plant you can afford. You might have the dollars to buy a 300 cm (10’) Colorado Spruce tree but if you’re living in area where the soil is less than a foot deep, you will have to spend a lot of extra money to truck in extra soil in which to plant it. Even then, longterm survival is not a given. However, if you select a 150 cm (5’), it will get along quite nicely and in 5 years or so surpass the height of the original 300 cm tree and all of its replacements.

The same goes for almost every other plant, especially perennials. So it’s a combination of discretionary finances, patience and satisfaction/gratification.

Some of us are not interested in planting for posterity; we want to look at a big tree, now. Some of us can relax under the shade of a tree planted by a generation long passed on whilst looking at a new whip we just slipped into the fencerow. Both perspectives are valid.

One very common oversight is not knowing the mature size of the plant.

Probably the number one plant where this can be seen is the weeping mulberry (Morus alba ‘Pendula’.) There is one on King Street in Trenton that is 18’ tall and 10’ wide and there is one on the south side of Old Highway 2 west of Bayside that is half again as large. There are dozens in Belleville and Trenton, in the new subdivisions planted less than 4’ away from a wall, fence, driveway, etc.

Gentle Reader, there is no ‘wrong’ plant but not all plants are ‘right.’

saw a humungous mountain of ďŹ shing nets piled up and this display is left here as a kind of statue and reminder of their danger to the seal population which has dramatically decreased in this area.

These FAX: 613-475-5331 additional shelters became important because the facility was originally TEL: 1-800-339-5662 intended to house and help about a613-475-2927 hundred seals at a time.

The other major problem faced by the young seal pup is the development of lung worms, a very common disease.

If found in time, these sick seal pups can be nursed back to health and the good news is that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never have to deal with it again, for itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a disease only found in the very young.

I found that there were three basic steps in the process of rehabilitation here. The young pups were placed in quarantine/intensive care, at ďŹ rst, and force-fed. They were then moved to a small pool area, where they continued to recover and receive medication and did a bit of swimming. The ďŹ nal stage of captivity took place in a larger pool, where they were no longer in need of medication, but they were now merely fattening up and recovering further strength before being declared cured and set free.

Lenie tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hart began a seal refuge here, right in her own backyard back in 1971 and it has now expanded into the present impressive Seal Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre, arguably the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best seal hospital. This facility, with its research lab and dedicated staff, is totally dependent on donations (being a â&#x20AC;&#x153;seal saverâ&#x20AC;? costs just a few Euros per month), and it attracts many interns and volunteers, including biologists and veterinarians, from all over the world.

It also attracts many groups who hope to set up a similar centre elsewhere, including visitors from Canada. While I was there, there wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a contingency from Canada, but there was a young Korean girl whom I met who was checking out the facility, and she was hoping to eventually re-introduce sea lions back at home.

Many tourists also visit this facility (eight Euros per adult: ďŹ ve Euros per child; free for infants under 3), but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a charity rather than simply a tourist attraction. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very educational, and children particularly like to watch the healthier seal pups at play in the larger pool just before they are re-released.

However, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no cuddling here for these are wild creatures that are going to be returned to the sea!

The Fellowship would like to thank Heritage Canada for their support through the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Canadian Arts Presentation Fundâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and all the local sponsors and volunteers who make this festival, their Artist Development, and Blues in the Schools Programs possible.

Onsite camping registration is now open. The limited number of vehicle sites will fill up fast, so make your reservation early. Tent sites for rough camping will be available at the gate. Plan to spend the entire weekend to take in all the fun!

B10 EMC Section B - Thursday, April 24, 2014

News - Trent Hills - Northumberland Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) received a complaint of a fraud involving the sale of puppies on Kijiji.

The Trent Hills resident viewed a puppy for sale on the popular buy and sell web site and made inquiries to a female via a cell phone number provided in the advertisement.

Arrangements were made to have the puppy shipped from Quebec to the Toronto area using air freight and monies were paid via an email transfer.

The buyer travelled to Pearson International Airport in Toronto to pick up the puppy only to find that there was no such shipment.

All subsequent efforts to contact the seller proved futile.

The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre states: “In order to avoid these types of scams, remember the following general words of advice: • Know who you are dealing with: independently confirm your seller’s name, street address, and telephone number.

• Resist pressure to “act now.” If an offer sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

• If the buyer wants to use a service you have not heard of, be sure to check it out to be sure it is reliable: check its web site, call its customer service hotline, and read its terms of agreement and privacy policy. If you do not feel comfortable with the service, do not use it.

• Contact your local office of the Better Business Bureau and The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre toll free at 1-888-495-8501.

If you or someone you know suspect they’ve been a victim of fraud, contact your local police service or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).

50th Wedding Anniversary

CL517004

Saturday, May 10, 2014

Born November 1, 1923, in Godziesze, Poland, he is the son of the late Jean (John) Walas and the late Antonina (Kusz). His earliest recollections of a long and difficult life were of a farm in Bregy, France, where his parents worked. Following the sudden death of his mother, the family decided to return to Poland. Even at a young age, Tony realized although there was nothing for him in France, there was far less opportunity in Poland.

He remained in France and began his colourful journey around the world. As a young teenager he sailed as a merchant marine from Saint-Nazaire, France across the Mediterranean, with vivid stories of Tangier, Algiers, Alexandria, Cyprus, Beirut, Haifa, Bahrain, Karachi, Calcutta and Bombay, spending about 15 years at sea.

Like so many, he understood what is was to be poor and what it was to go hungry. Like so many, he had no formal education.

Like so many, he understood hard work and the value of a dollar. “Five dollars is nothing until the day you don’t have it; then it’s a mile long” – Tony Walas He arrived in Halifax in 1952 with a suitcase and later moved to Toronto, where he met and married Doreen. Never a stranger to hard physical work, he began his life in Toronto with Cliffside Pipelayers and Victor Heating. A seasonal cottager’s of Presqu’ile Point since the early 1960’s, the family moved to Brighton in 1972. He loved Brighton and all it had to offer.

In Brighton became a respected homebuilder with a career spanning approximately 30 years. He was proud of his accomplishments in Brighton. He felt that Brighton had been good to him and in turn he had been good to Brighton. He loved the water; he was an avid sailor, and a charter member of the Presqu’ile Yacht Club.

Fiercely independent, he lived on his own, still had his license, operated his backhoe until last year, and sailed until the year before that; Tony had only just returned from his annual 3 month hiatus in Cuba.

Predeceased by his wife Doreen (Dodd) 2009, he is survived by his daughter Debbie and her husband Jim Logeman; and sons, Mark Walas and his wife Linda and Matthew Walas and his wife Jodi and their families, all of Brighton.

The family would like to thank to Dr. MacIntyre and staff in Brighton and Trenton Memorial Hospital Emergency Staff for their care and compassion.

The family will receive friends at the Brighton Funeral Home, 130 Main St., Brighton on Thursday evening from 6-8pm.

A private interment will take place at Salem Cemetery. No flowers please, as an expression of sympathy donations to Brighton Fare Share Food Bank, c/o 130 Main Street, PO Box 96, Brighton, ON K0K 1H0.
