Open Letter to Provincial Election Candidates Re: Emergency Infrastructure Funding May 27th, 2022 – Chapleau, Ontario irst and foremost, we want to congratulate each of you for taking the initiative to potentially lead in this great part of our province. Northern Ontario is an extremely vital component and seems to be significantly reflected in each of your political campaigns including continuing support for economic development, First Nations, natural resources, and support for medium to small/rural municipalities across the north that govern such a vast area of this province. Chapleau is among one of those small/rural communities, one that requires much-needed financial assistance to continue to operate in a way that allows our residents and its governing body to operate effectively into the near future. As you are obviously aware, Chapleau is located in central Northeastern Ontario, in the heart of the Canadian Shield. Chapleau is geographically isolated; the nearest cities are Sault Ste. Marie, Timmins, and Sudbury, but all are at least a two-hour drive away. Highway 129 links the town with Highway 101, running east to Timmins and west to Wawa. Highway 129 also runs south, connecting with the Trans-Canada Highway, Highway 17 at Thessalon, 227 km (141 mi) from Chapleau. Regardless, we continue Long Term to play an extremely key Forecast role linking tourism Thursday High 18 opportunities with Low 7 several outfitters and Friday lodges operating in the High 17 area and home to our Low 4 main employers includSaturday ing the Canadian Pacific
F
Railway, Green First Forest Products and Newmont Goldcorp. The community's population is now just under 2,000. As a small community in Northern Ontario, Chapleau and others continue to struggle financially endeavoring to find an appropriate balance between property tax assessment on a few commercial operators and the community's residential population. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant setbacks to our area in Chapleau, similar to so many other communities across the north. Regardless, we continue to strive to lay the groundwork for new economic development and increased population to this beautiful and picturesque part of the province. Specifically, our financial requirements to maintain critical infrastructure capacity in Chapleau is now at a desperate situation, especially when addressing emergency repairs directly related to watermain/forcemain breaks in the community. Our infrastructure and streets, in some instances, now date back to the early 1900's and are in need of dire preventative replacement before they fall into the "emergency repair" category. Emergency repairs, without debate, has and will continue to cause significant cost burdens with major implications on our reserve fund balances with no ability for our community to plan for future rehabilitation projects. The Township of Chapleau has unfortunately had its share of emergency repair costs on streets and watermain breaks over the last few years and we are bracing for additional infrastructure problems related to these issues causing additional strains on our already depleted reserve fund balances. Our financial ability to address

rehabilitation of this key infrastructure in Chapleau is not keeping up with the pace at which it is deteriorating, and the cost of these on-going emergency repairs is not sustainable for our community. The cost of managing aging municipal infrastructure creates a desperate need for financial policy development from your respective political parties. The policy should address immediate access to an "emergency infrastructure and repair fund" for those who can viably demonstrate a combination of both financial and emergency requirements in order to quickly repair key community infrastructure components. The capital fund should also be available for long-term and planned infrastructure replacement in small/rural communities in the north with aging components critical to the operation of the municipality. As a small/rural community in the north, with limited commercial operators and population base, Chapleau is unable to continue to raise taxes and maintain acceptable levels of service while also endeavoring to conduct emergency repairs on aging infrastructure without the critical assistance of the Provincial Government. On behalf of the Council of the Township of Chapleau, we implore you to take a position of strength and leadership on this important issue for our community and we look forward to your response on this matter. Thank you for your rapid attention on this issue and look forward to either addressing this with you in person or by telephone at your earliest convenience. Best regards, Mayor Michael Levesque

Chapleau, Ontario – le 27 mai 2022 D'abord et avant tout, j'aimerais féliciter chaque personne qui a pris l'initiative de devenir un éventuel leader dans cette belle région de notre province. Le Nord de l'Ontario, qui constitue un élément vital, semble occuper une place significative dans chacune de vos campagnes politiques, y compris en ce qui concerne le soutien au développement économique, aux Premières Nations, aux ressources naturelles, ainsi que votre appui aux petites municipalités et aux municipalités rurales de partout dans le Nord, lesquelles dirigent une si vaste étendue de notre province. Chapleau, petite municipalité rurale, a un grand besoin d'aide financière si elle veut continuer à fonctionner de façon à permettre à sa population et à ses instances dirigeantes de fonctionner de manière efficace à court terme. Comme vous êtes certainement au courant, Chapleau est située dans le centre du nord-est ontarien, au coeur du Bouclier canadien. Sur le plan géographique, Chapleau est isolée. Les villes les plus proches sont Sault-Sainte-Marie, Timmins et Sudbury. Toutefois, elles sont situées à au moins deux heures de route. La route 129 relie la municipalité à la route 101, laquelle se dirige vers Timmins à l'Est et vers Wawa à l'Ouest. La route 129 se dirige aussi vers le Sud, où elle joint la Transcanadienne, la route 17 à Thessalon, à 227 km (141 mi) de Chapleau. Peu importe, Chapleau

désespéré d'élaboration d'une politique financière de la part de vos partis politiques respectifs. Une telle politique devrait aborder l'accès immédiat à un « fonds d'infrastructure et de réparation d'urgence » pour les municipalités qui peuvent en montrer la viabilité au moyen d'une combinaison d'exigences à la fois financières et d'urgence afin de réparer rapidement des éléments clés des infrastructures communautaires. Un tel fonds pour dépenses en capital devrait également être accessible pour le remplacement à long terme et planifié des infrastructures dans les petites communautés et les communautés rurales du Nord de l'Ontario dont des éléments essentiels au fonctionnement de la municipalité sont désuets. En tant que petite communauté rurale du Nord qui compte un nombre limité d'exploitants commerciaux et d'habitants, Chapleau n'est plus en mesure, sans l'aide du gouvernement provincial, d'augmenter ses impôts et de maintenir un niveau acceptable de services tout en s'efforçant d'effectuer des réparations d'urgence sur des infrastructures vétustes. Au nom du Conseil du Canton de Chapleau, je vous implore de prendre une position forte et de leadership sur cette question importante pour notre communauté. Nous avons hâte de connaître votre réponse dans ce dossier. Nous apprécions l'attention immédiate que vous porterez à ces questions et il nous tarde de discuter de tout ceci en personne ou par téléphone dès que vous le pourrez. Avec mes cordiales salutations.

Chapleau Moments by
Michael J. Morris I am feeling somewhat nostalgic these days about Chapleau Moments. When I accepted Mario Lafreniere's invitation to write a column for the Chapleau Express in 2009 I wondered if I would be able to come up with enough material for a month's worth of Chapleau Moments. Since starting Chapleau Moments, I have often reminded myself of the words that Dr. J.B. McClinton shared with me in a Timmins restaurant shortly after my arrival there to begin my career as a daily newspaper reporter with The Daily Press in 1964. I was having coffee with Dr. McClinton, a great promoter of Northern Ontario and Highway 101 connection between Chapleau and Timmins, and he said, "So, you want to be a reporter. "Look around you. There are stories everywhere. If you never left this restaurant for rhe rest of your life, you would never be able to write all the stories that happened in this place." Well, "let me tell you” As my good friend Dr. G.E. Young would say when he started a story, if I continued to write for another fifty or so years, I would never be able to share all the stories about the people and moments that are part of Chapleau's history. Let me thank Mario for providing me with the opportunity to share some Chapleau moments with you -- the stories of the incredible people who have called Chapleau home -- those who still live there, those who now live somewhere else, and those who are no longer with us but left their mark on the life of the community since 1885, and before.
Growing up among the greatest people I have ever known the good people of Chapleau Let me thank all those who have contacted me over the years with comments, story ideas and their recollections of the life and times of Chapleau. Maybe that's been the best part of the experience, reconnecting with so many of you and bringing back such wonderful memories of home. And yes, I have discovered beyond any doubt that Chapleau is still considered home to those who have lived there, even if like me, they have been gone for many years. It has also been great to open emails from folks I do not know to read about their connection to Chapleau. Of course, I am not really "from" Chapleau, having been born in Hamilton, Ontario, where my father, James E. Morris, who was born in Chapleau, was a flying instructor at the Elementary Flying Training School at Mount Hope, part of the Commonwealth Air Training Plan in World War II. He had joined the RCAF in 1940 but took leave to be a flying instructor, at the EFTS. My mother, Muriel E. (Hunt) Morris was born in Glasgow, Scotland and came to Chapleau with her parents just before World War I. When my father went back into the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1942, we returned to Chapleau to stay with family while he was overseas on active service during World War II. We stayed after he was killed while on active service on July 16, 1943. Many readers will recall my mother who taught at Chapleau Public School for 32 years and let me say thanks to all those who have kindly remembered her in messages to me. While at the public school she directed annual concerts including Gilbert and Sullivan's musical 'HMS Pinafore'. Billy Kemp, Charlie Byce and Gordon Bolduc all had leading roles in this production, while Joan Kemp was the pianist. Mom was also continually active in St. John's Anglican Church where she was choir director. However, one of the great moments in her church life was undoubtedly in 1935 at a service marking the 50th anniversary of the parish. As one of the soloists she sang 'Now the Day is Over.' Her father, my grandfather, George Hunt was the choir director while the organist was Miss Nettie Herner, who later married Arthur Grout. My grandmother, Edith Hunt, along with Mrs. P.J. Collins were joint conveners of the banquet. My parents were married in St. John's Church in 1940. Mom died in 1989. (Saying from the late Desmond Tutu, Archbishop of South Africa: "Ubuntu is an African word meaning 'I am who I am because of all who have contributed to my being'. I walk
because someone held my hand as I was learning. I laugh because my mother laughed. Her laughter was carried from her mother, and hers. It is kept alive by family and friends. Losing our loved ones opens the way to compassion for others and connects us all soul to soul.") In my first Chapleau Moments column in 2009, I shared my tricycle ride from our home on Grey Street, uptown and across the old overhead bridge, to visit my grandparents, Lil (Mulligan) and Harry Morris on Elgin Street. It just struck me that trips from Grey Street to Elgin Street were actually started by my parents when they were dating in the 1930s -- a connecting link for us to both sides of early Chapleau. As I have not my My Morris grandmother was a member of the Mulligan family who came to Chapleau in 1885. This time let me tell you a bit about my father and some of his friends, and moments they shared growing up in Chapleau. Born in 1914 in Chapleau, he attended Chapleau Public School and Chapleau High School graduating from Grade 13 in 1933, and yes, one of his teachers was John 'Mac' McClellan. In fact, Mr. McClellan coached the juvenile hockey team he played on with Gordon McKnight, Don Robinson, Eric Young, Walter Moore, Bobby Perpete, B. McAdam, Joe Crichton and Romeo Levesque. He also rose to the rank of Cadet Captain in the Number 1181 CHS Cadet Corps directed by Mr. McClellan. Cont’d on P.5

REPORT from OTTAWA Rapport d’Ottawa by/par
Carol Hughes Federal member of Parliament Algoma-Manitoulin-Kapuskasing
The government has finally made the right decision in banning Huawei and ZTE from Canada's 5G wireless network. This decision puts us in line with our Five Eyes allies, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States, who have all banned Huawei and ZTE from their respective 5G networks over credible security concerns about these companies. The Liberal government initially launched the review of which companies would be permitted on our 5G network during it's first mandate, with the former Public Safety Minister promising to make a decision prior to the 2019 election. CSIS Director David Vigneault has been sounding the alarm about the potential threat state-sponsored espionage through 5G posed to our national security since 2018. The major concern about allowing these companies to participate in our 5G network relate to the degree to which they are able to operate independently from the Chinese government. While Huawei and ZTE maintain that they are independent companies, the extent to which they are at arm's length from the Chinese government is still unclear. They are subject to China's
Decision to Ban Huawei Long Overdue National Intelligence Law that may require them to provide sensitive data to their government should it be requested. Having a company who could be compelled to provide data on Canadians to a foreign government is itself a national security threat. While there has always been speculation that this decision was delayed as a result of the arrests and imprisonment of Michael Korvig and Michael Spavor in China, largely seen as retaliation for the arrest of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou on charges of fraud and conspiracy in the U.S., the decision nevertheless came two years after the UK became the 4th of the Five Eyes partners to decide against Huawei on the matter. The decision also fell one day after China removed its retaliatory tariff on Canadian canola products, which comprised 40 percent of Canada's canola exports, a dispute the government had taken to the World Trade Organization for resolution. We a l l r e a l i z e t h a t t h e s e m a j o r geopolitical concerns are factors in a decision like this. However, the safety, privacy, and security of Canadian citizens, businesses, and governments, as well as the security of the data they use, must be paramount in any conversation about which telecom companies are allowed on our network. The delay does raise concerns about the government's national security commitments, and it also created unnecessary friction with our intelligence security allies, making Canada the outlier when the rest of the Five Eyes allies had
banned both companies already. On a practical level, what does this mean to your average Canadian individual or business? Not much up front for those who are networked through larger companies. Of the big three telecom companies across the country, Bell and Telus had planned to work with Huawei to develop their 5G rollout, but as the government examined whether to ban Huawei from its networks, both companies made alternative arrangements with other partners, such as Swedish company Ericsson. Companies that do use Huawei or ZTE 4G or 5G tech are required to cease procurement by September 2022, to remove or terminate 5G tech already installed by June 2024, and for 4G tech by December 2027. For smaller telecoms, however, some had relied on Huawei and ZTE technology due to lower costs and may end up paying the price to remove those company's tech from their networks. The delay in addressing the legitimate national security concerns and privacy rights raised by CSIS and the Five Eyes may have also inadvertently hampered smaller telcos, and by extension, Canadian consumers. Decisions about national security should never be made in haste, or without merit or expert advice, but three years is an exceptionally long delay to ensure the safety of our 5G network infrastructure. The concerns shared by our Five Eyes allies and by the Director of CSIS should have been significant enough to warrant intense scrutiny. Our safety and security are paramount.
La décision d'interdire Huawei aurait dû être prise il y a longtemps Le gouvernement a finalement pris la bonne décision en excluant Huawei et ZTE du réseau sans fil 5G du Canada. Cette décision nous met en conformité avec nos alliés du Groupe des cinq, l'Australie, la Nouvelle-Zélande, le Royaume-Uni et les États-Unis, qui ont tous exclu Huawei et ZTE de leurs réseaux 5G respectifs en raison des craintes justifiées que suscitent ces entreprises en matière de sécurité. Le gouvernement libéral a initialement lancé au cours de son premier mandat l'examen des entreprises qui seraient autorisées à intégrer notre réseau 5G, le ministre de la Sécurité publique de l'époque promettant de prendre une décision avant l'élection de 2019. Le directeur du SCRS, David Vigneault, a commencé en 2018 à lancer des avertissements au sujet de la menace d'espionnage d'État par le réseau 5G et des risques connexes pour notre sécurité nationale. La crainte que pose une éventuelle participation de ces entreprises à notre réseau 5G concerne leur niveau d'indépendance par rapport au gouvernement chinois. Bien que Huawei et
ZTE soutiennent qu'elles sont des entreprises indépendantes, la mesure dans laquelle elles fonctionnent indépendamment du gouvernement chinois n'est toujours pas claire. Elles sont assujetties à la loi chinoise sur le renseignement national, laquelle peut les obliger à fournir des données de nature délicate à leur gouvernement, à la demande de celui-ci. Le fait qu'une entreprise soit obligée de fournir des données sur les Canadiens à un gouvernement étranger constitue en soi une menace à la sécurité nationale. S'il y a toujours eu des hypothèses voulant que la décision ait été reportée en raison de l'arrestation et de l'emprisonnement de Michael Korvig et Michael Spavor en Chine, généralement considérés comme une mesure de représailles pour l'arrestation de Meng Wanzhou, membre de la direction de Huawei, accusée de fraude et de complot aux É.-U., il reste que la décision est survenue deux années après que le Royaume-Uni est devenu le 4e des partenaires du Groupe des cinq à décider d'exclure Huawei du réseau 5G. La décision est aussi tombée un jour
après que la Chine a éliminé ses mesures de rétorsion tarifaires sur les produits de canola canadiens, qui touchaient 40 % des exportations de canola du Canada, un différend que le gouvernement avait porté devant l'Organisation mondiale du commerce. Nous sommes tous conscients que ces importantes préoccupations géopolitiques sont des facteurs à prendre en compte dans une décision comme celle-ci. Cependant, la sécurité, la vie privée et la sûreté des citoyens, des entreprises et des gouvernements du Canada, ainsi que la sécurité des données qu'ils utilisent, doivent être des considérations primordiales dans toutes discussions sur les entreprises de télécommunication qui peuvent être admises dans notre réseau. Le retard de la décision soulève des questions au sujet des engagements du gouvernement en matière de sécurité nationale, en plus de créer des tensions inutiles avec nos alliés de la sécurité du renseignement, plaçant le Canada en marge des alliés du Groupe Suite P.7

Chapleau Moments Cont’d from P.3 In his application to the RCAF, he noted that he was involved in all school and local athletics, including track and field where along with Claude Turner and Ken Godfrey they won marathon relay races at Schreiber and Fort William in 1931, 1932 and 1933. In those years Chapleau had highly active track and field club with a five-mile race held in conjunction with July 1 celebrations. After the war, the Morris-Thomson Memorial Trophy was established, and it was won by Greg Lucas so many times that it was finally given to him. In the 1970s, the five-mile race was revived, and Greg would present the trophy to the winner. Tennis was also popular, and I learned to play from some of my father's friends including Greg, Eric Young and Charlie McKee, as well as Rev. Frank Leigh who would have been a bit
older. We played on the St. John's Tennis court and, those guys could really whack a ball, and won some northern Ontario titles in their prime. After graduating from high school, my father became assistant secretary at the Chapleau Railway YMCA for three years. The YMCA on Lorne Street was a beehive of activity in those years with rooms, a restaurant, sports activities, and a bowling alley downstairs. As an aside the most famous bowler in my memory was Mrs. Mabel Young, Dr. Young's mother. Dr. Young was also one of my father's good friends. Mr. 'Pop' Depew was the secretary as the manager was called Of course, growing up in Chapleau meant skating in the "old" arena on Lorne Street as well as playing hockey on outdoor rinks including on the river by the present beach, skiing, hiking and camping and swimming. Two of my father's good friends who shared memories of growing up with him, which I really appreciated were Clyde Fife and F.A. 'Nick' Card. When I turned sixteen, and went to get my driver's license, Clyde was the examiner and when I arrived, and knocked on his door, he said, "I was expecting you today. I was there when you were born." And he was. Clyde had enlisted in the RCAF and at the time was stationed in Toronto. So, on the day I got my driver's license, Clyde told me stories, and finally asked, "How did you get here?" to which I replied, "I drove.” Clyde replied that seeing as how I had driven to his home near the old power plant, I could drive home, and he approved my license. Clyde is the father of Robert Fife, now the Ottawa bureau chief of The Globe and Mail. Nick, who served as reeve of Chapleau and also as a councillor grew up on Elgin Street almost next door to my dad. In fact, until Walter

Only photo of Michael and his father Paradis built his home there, a vacant lot separated their houses. I don't know if it is still visible today, but almost across from their homes was a big rock on which they painted, "Kilgore was here.” My father's love of flying started at an early age when he would go down to the Chapleau waterfront and hang out with the early bush pilots who would fly in to Chapleau in the 1930s. An article in the Toronto Telegram after he was killed noted that he was involved with early bush pilots. In applying to the RCAF he wrote that he had acquired knowledge in "part time employment" around aircraft. According to my grandfather, he really was learning to fly planes, thinking that his mother did not know. She did. Mothers always know. In 1936 he joined the Canadian Pacific Railway department of investigation and in 1939 was part of the security team for the Royal Visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. He received his private pilot's license at the Fort William Flying Club in 1937. In sharing a bit about my parents with you, I do so with a deep sense of gratitude to them for making the decision to have my mother and I return to Chapleau while my father went overseas. Despite the tragic loss of him when I was so young, we stayed in Chapleau and I was able to grow up close to my wonderful grandparents - George and Edith Hunt and Harry and Lil Morris - and among the greatest people I have ever known, the good people of Chapleau.

On June 13, 1381, a large mob of English peasants marches into London and begins burning and looting the city. The revolt began with the bubonic plague in the late 1340s, which killed nearly a third of the population of England and led to higher wages due to scarcity of labor. Parliament, however, passed laws to hold down wages.

La décision d'interdire Huawei aurait dû être prise il y a longtemps Suite de la P.4 des cinq, qui avaient tous déjà exclu les deux entreprises. Concrètement, quelles sont les implications pour le particulier ou l'entreprise type au Canada? Pas grand-chose dans l'immédiat pour ceux qui utilisent les réseaux de grandes entreprises. Sur les trois grandes entreprises de télécommunication au pays, Bell et Telus avaient prévu de travailler avec Huawei pour leur déploiement du réseau 5G, mais, alors que le gouvernement examinait la possibilité d'exclure Huawei de ses réseaux, les deux entreprises ont pris des dispositions avec d'autres partenaires, comme la suédoise Ericsson. Les entreprises qui utilisent la technologie 4G ou 5G de Huawei ou Z T E doivent cesser de s'approvisionner auprès de ces dernières d'ici septembre 2022 et supprimer la technologie 5G déjà installée d'ici juin 2024, ou d'ici décembre 2027 dans le cas de la technologie 4G. Cependant, certaines des plus petites entreprises de télécommunication avaient adopté la technologie de Huawei et ZTE en raison de leurs coûts moins élevés et pourraient avoir à s'acquitter des coûts requis pour supprimer la technologie de ces entreprises de leurs réseaux. Le retard dans l'évaluation des préoccupations légitimes à l'égard de la sécurité nationale et des droits en matière de protection des renseignements personnels soulevées par le SCRS et le Groupe des cinq pourrait aussi avoir nui par inadvertance aux plus petites entreprises de télécommunication et, par extension, aux consommateurs canadiens.

Les décisions en matière de sécurité nationale ne devraient jamais être prises à la hâte, ni être prises sans motif valable ou sans l'avis d'experts, mais un retard de trois ans est exceptionnellement long pour assurer la sécurité de notre infrastructure de réseau 5G. Les inquiétudes soulevées par les alliés du Groupe des cinq et le directeur du SCRS auraient dû être suffisamment sérieuses pour justifier un examen minutieux.
