raving a cold 30 degrees Celsius, 400 participants headed out at or around 7 am on Saturday morning, February the 11th, to see if their fishing skills and luck would be sufficient to haul in the big winner. An increase of 12% in participants from the 2010 derby kept the organizers on their toes. B y n i n e o’clock, five qualifying pikes were registered. By the end of the day, 11 qualifiers were registered. A lot of challenging catches w e r e r e p o r t e d but

A buffet style supper was catered by Aux Trois Moulins Restaurant, serving close to 500 fishermen and friends in one hour. Compliments on the supper abounded during and after supper. The Chapleau Business community came thru once again donating many prizes which were awarded starting at 7 p.m. At one point, Bill Groves, who had purchased a few dozen Ultimate Fishing Town Canada t-shirts and proceeded in throwing them to the participants sitting at the tables creating mayhem.

TRIBUNE LIBRE Dernièrement, les gens de la communauté parlent beaucoup du projet de la réalisation d'un film à Chapleau, «The R o a d t o To p h e t » . D'ailleurs, votre article, dans le journal du 4 février, nous donne une bonne idée du projet et de l'équipe travaillant sur le projet. Bref, un film à 98% Chapleauite ! Travaillant dans le domaine des arts depuis plusieurs années, les ressources financières sont très minimes avec nos gouvernements
comparativement à d'autres secteurs. Pourtant, les arts font parties de notre quotidien; on fait de l'exercice en écoutant de la musique ou encore on veut relaxer en écoutant un bon film après une dure journée au travail ou encore un spectacle. Les arts sont des excellents outils dans le milieu de la santé et dans nos écoles. Et maintenant, nous avons de jeunes artistes qui reviennent dans leur village natal pour faire un film. Chapleau dans un film
avec des artistes de chez nous, ce n'est pas tous les jours qu'on voit ça! Ils n'ont pas d'aide gouvernemental et sont à la recherche d'investisseurs. Il serait beaucoup plus facile financièrement et logistiquement de réaliser le film près d'un grand centre, mais ils sont tenaces, le film doit être authentique et se réaliser ici. Ils n'ont pas oublié la fierté et l'intégrité des gens de la communauté, ils ont confiance en notre générosité. Ça vous tente de faire partie de l'aventure? Quelque soit le montant, aidons- les
à réaliser le film. Vous pouvez remettre votre don pour le film en personne au Centre culturel ou par internet www.indiegogo.com/ The-Road-to-Tophet. J'aimerais remercier Alex, Kyle et Steve de partager avec nous leurs rêves. À travers le vôtre, je peux vivre le mien : une communauté qui travaille ensemble pour les arts et par les arts. J e v o u s remercie, monsieur l'éditeur, de m'accorder ces quelques lignes. Diane Jean

Hockey Roundup by Buddy Swanson became must read for complete coverage of Chapleau local teams and league in the 1960s even in Saskatchewan
Chapleau Moments by Michael J. Morris When I was working at the Saskatoon StarPhoenix in the 1960s, my mother, Muriel E. (Hunt) Morris, would send me The Chapleau Sentinel each week, and my favourite read during the winter months was Hockey Roundup by Buddy Swanson. To say the least, I was delighted last week to receive Buddy's column for February 5, 1966 from John Theriault with a note suggesting that maybe I could use it. Forty six years ago this month, P.V. Wade, the legendary managing editor of the StarPhoenix, had called me into his "room", never called it his office, and advised that I was moving to North Battleford to open a news bureau for the newspaper there. Away I went not having a clue where North Battleford was, but I sure was not one to argue with Mr. Wade. I just got on the bus and went, and life there is a story, maybe more than one, for another day. I did return to Saskatoon later as night city editor and Mom kept sending me the Sentinel without fail. However, reading Buddy's column brought back so many memories of hockey in Chapleau as I was growing up there. I was never a very good h o c k e y p l a y e r, s o retired at the Bantam

level and became a referee. It kept me involved in the game, and upon reflection, I likely officiated more than 500 games from minor to town league to Intermediate in the Chapleau Memorial Community Arena between 1954 and 1964, when I became a newspaper reporter. When I was at university, I would come home as the "neutral" referee and work the winter carnival games. And to this day, I am so thankful to Garth 'Tee' Chambers, L.D. 'Don' Card and Olive Card for keeping me in the game. B u d d y ' s Hockey Roundup provided complete coverage of hockey in Chapleau which made it a must read each week. As an aside, Buddy was probably the only person who could broadcast like Foster Hewitt, and play road hockey at the same time which he did for games played on Aberdeen Street and environs for years. In the Hockey Roundup I received, Buddy tells us that two Chapleau hockey teams had come up with impressive wins in recent out of town games. The Senior Bantams, coached by David Mizuguchi had downed South Porcupine Bantams 6-3 and the next day the Chapleau Huskies walloped Barries Car sales of Timmins 14-2. Buddy noted
that "Coach Dave Mizuguchi's boys were well deserving of their win and I might add that the conduct of the team off the ice also drew appreciative comment from those who came in contact with them." Referring to the game: "... goaltenders Dave McAdam and Bert Warren along with star forward Marc Boisvert played key roles in the victory. Both goalies came up with a number of fine saves as they shared the netminding duties and Bosivert's four goals made him the individual scoring ace of the game." Johnny Theriault and Richard Lacroix scored Chapleau's other two goals. Buddy wrote that the Huskies "finally found their scoring eye" in their 14-2 romp over the Timmins team. Goal scorers were Jim Keenan with a hat trick, with Raymond Larcher, Art Madore and Richard Morin each scoring twice and George Swanson, Ron Morris, Johnny Laframboise, Andre Rioux and Corky Bucci chipping in with singles. Of particular note was that Raymond Larcher and Corky Bucci of the Chapleau Midget team were playing. Hockey Roundup was written the year before the Chapleau Junior "B" Huskies entered the International Junior "B" League and won it all. In 1965-66 Buddy and his friend Lorne Riley were managing and coaching the Midgets respectively. They assumed the same role with the Junior Huskies in 1966-

In the very competitive town league the Legion Flyers were in first place with 18 points, followed by Model Drug Aces with 15 and Chapleau High School TEEM with 13. Joey Bignucolo of the Aces was way ahead of the competition in the town league scoring race with 29 goals and 19 assists. He was f o l l o w e d b y To m Lessard (Aces), George Swanson (CHS), Ray Larcher (Flyers), Art Madore (Flyers), Jean Claude Cyr (Aces) and Richard Morin (CHS). Town league goaltenders were Albert Bignucolo, Ed Bignucolo and Jamie Broomhead.

Ontario Weather Review: January 2012 In January 2012, balmy temperatures continued to reign across the province. Mean temperatures approached, but somewhat surprisingly did not surpass, the values of 2006 when most recent records were set in Ontario. This January, mean temperatures were above normal values by as much as 7.8 degrees Celsius, which was the case in Dryden! No monthly records were broken in terms of precipitation. Most locations, in fact, received normal amounts. Some locations received significantly
more rainfall, such as Elliot Lake and Windsor. Locations east and northeast of Lake Superior received significantly more snowfall than n o r m a l ; h o w e v e r, locations such as Elliot Lake and Wi a r t o n r e c e i v e d significantly less. In terms of total precipitation, Earlton and Wiarton were drier than normal, while Geraldton, Kapuskasing, Moosonee, and Petawawa were significantly wetter than normal. Severe Weather There were a number of noteworthy weather events this past month, mostly during the middle part
In Memory Blanche Sawyer Still With Us (Makah Indian Poem)
Do not stand by my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am a diamond glint on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awake in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft star shine at night. Do not stand by my grave and cry; I am not there. I DID NOT DIE.

of January. From January 17-21, many locations in the far north suffered under a frigid arctic air mass. Wind chill warnings were posted across much of the area, with values between -45 and -50 occurring due to the combination of biting temperatures and brisk winds. On January 17-18, a low-pressure area from the American Midwest tracked through southern Ontario, bringing a wide variety of precipitation. Areas near the lower Great Lakes saw mostly rain, while those from east of Georgian Bay into the Ottawa Valley received snow. The snow changed to an extended period of freezing rain in the Ottawa area during the day on January 17 before changing back to snow late that day. Total snow accumulations in the areas that received the weather event all as snow were between 15 and 25 centimetres. On January 19, a storm system moved through northeastern Ontario with a cold front that extended into southern Ontario.
An area of poor visibility due to snow and blowing snow was tied to the cold front as it swept west to east, f r o m Wi n d s o r t o Ottawa. These conditions prompted the Ontario Storm Prediction Centre to issue a relatively rare snow squall warning related to the passage of the front. This was not the more traditional type of snow squall warning that is linked to lake effect snow coming inland from the Great Lakes. These hazardous winter conditions linked to the front didn’t last long, just a few hours in most places, but there were a large number of traffic collisions in its wake. The most serious was a chain reaction collision on highway 402 east of Sarnia, involving up to 30 vehicles and resulting in two fatalities. A large, wellorganized storm system brought a mix of precipitation across much of the province from January 21-23. This storm came out of the American Midwest and eventually tracked up through northeastern
Ontario and into Quebec. North of Lake Superior, it was a snow event, with total accumulations between 30 and 40 centimetres. The snow mixed with, or changed over to, freezing rain and freezing drizzle in northeastern Ontario, with some locations switching to rain as milder conditions pushed farther north. From Sault Ste. Marie to North Bay, the storm began as freezing rain and freezing drizzle, then changed to rain and then eventually to snow, as colder air invaded in the wake of the storm. With the Great
Lakes continuing to have large areas of open water due to the relatively mild winter to date, a number of lake-effect snow events occurred during the month. However, on the days when the coldest air moved down over the Great Lakes, providing a good setup for lake-effect snow, the surface winds did not lock into one direction for long. This resulted in areas to the east of Lake Superior, Georgian Bay and Lake Huron receiving some 10 to 20 centimetres from these events, but no larger snowfalls, as the lakeeffect bands shifted frequently.

Northern Ontario Must Not Lose Seats: NDP North must preserve its weight in Parliament during new redistribution, NDP MPs say
N o r t h e r n O n t a r i o ’s s i x N e w Democrat MPs calling on the region’s Conservative representatives to stand with them in defending fair representation for the region. They are introducing a Private Member's Bill guaranteeing Northern Ontario its current number of seats if the riding boundaries are redrawn. “Many ridings in
Northern Ontario are already bigger than some European countries,” said John Rafferty (Thunder Bay-Rainy River). “We don't need to make it any harder for constituents to get to their M P ’s o ff i c e s , o r t o weaken their voice.

Gravelle, to ensure Northern Ontario doesn't lose any more seats.” Under the government’s redistribution legislation, Ontario will go from 106 to 121 seats in the House of Commons, while B.C. and Alberta get 5 additional seats each and Quebec 3. It is expected that many of Ontario’s new seats will go to Toronto’s fast-growing 905 region. The MPs argue that although the
North dropped from 11 to 10 seats in the 2004 redistribution, the average population of Ontario ridings will be lower this time because of the 15 new seats added to the province. “ To d a y, N e w Democrats are drawing a line in the sand,” said Bruce Hyer (Thunder Bay-Superior North). “We will fight, tooth and nail, any attempt to weaken Northern Ontario’s voice.

The coaching staff, consisting of Dominic Thibeault (Head Coach), Julian Boucher (Assistant Coach/Trainer), Dan Hawthorne (Assistant Coach), Heather Pilon (Assistant Coach), Josée Thibeault (Manager) and Bruce Schuurman (Statistician) worked hard to
prepare these young players, aged 6-8 years old, for future meetings with teams in our league.

They finished regular league play with 13 wins, 7 losses and 4 ties giving them 1st place in the NEOHA 2011-2012 Novice A Division.

Chapleau Express, February 18, 2012 - Page 10
What the Conservative government doesn’t want you know REPORT from OTTAWA by Carol Hughes M Federal member of Parliament Algoma-Manitoulin-Kapuskasing
Step h e n H a r p e r ’ s promises in the 2008 election included commitments about bitumen (heavy oil) from Canada’s tar sands: That we would not export the raw material to be upgraded and refined elsewhere (existing US contracts aside) and; that we would not trade the resource to countries with lesser environmental standards. This past week, as he led a mission to China, Stephen Harper continued to bury those promises in obscurity. Many Canadians will be surprised that development in the oil sands includes companies that are shells for the Communist Party of China. These ‘companies’ have a policy of
securing raw resources and bringing them to China for any value added work, so that the economic benefits will remain in China. To that end, of the four known companies supporting the Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline proposal at the National Energy Board, two are Chinese. That is two out of ten companies that have paid ten million dollars each in order to secure their place in the line that is forming to get raw bitumen out of Canada with minimum economic benefit for this country. This is the same government that claims environmentalists are puppets for the interests of foreign radicals because some of their
donors are from the United States. It seems that the more the government protests about opponents serving foreign interests, the more apparent it becomes that they are the ones doing it. This is all the more galling since they went out of their way to create sweetheart deals for China and have done nothing to secure our domestic energy policy – refusing to even engage in any conversation about energy that doesn’t begin and end with
NORTHERN COLLEGE
shipping it all away without securing a single spin-off job for Canada in the process. To that end, the deal Canada has with Chinese energy companies includes language that ensures Canada will not upgrade or refine our own bitumen. Talk about handcuffed and shortsighted too. In his Massey Lecture a few years back, defence analyst Gwyn Dyer explained how Canadian bitumen is better suited for diesel and far more
expensive to make into ‘sweet’ gas. The price of diesel has risen almost 35 cents a litre over the last three years an d th is is larg ely blamed on insufficient refining capacity. This affects every commodity that is shipped by truck in Canada – groceries top the list of consumer must-haves and those prices are following diesel through the roof. If you will recall, the Conservatives won the 2008 election with a promise to ‘Stand up for Can-
ada’. What a sham that has proven to be. The only thing they stand up for is board-room profits and squeezing of every last drop of available money from the wallets of every day Canadians. They wrap themselves in hockey and the flag and hope no one notices what they are really doing. This is why we have to get past their talking points, smear jobs on their critics and truly hold them to account based on the facts – something they are not happy to do.

basket. for a fund raising draw. This basket was displayed in several venues in Chapleau. The draw was held in the Municipal building on February the 14th in Chapleau.
