Union of Public Employees (CUPE), representing outside municipal workers in the Town of Chapleau, hope a provincially appointed mediator can help them reach a settlement with the Town, so workers can continue delivering quality public services, and avert a strike that would hurt the community.
“The last thing our members want is a strike,” said Fran Bélanger, CUPE national representative. “In fact our members were quite surprised with the aggressive approach of management in current contract talks.” CUPE 887 recently voted 100 per cent in favour of a strike if a fair collective agreement cannot
be reached. Outstanding issues include changes management wants to make to working conditions and contracting-out. “Our members want to continue to provide quality public services to the town, and that’s why we are standing together to prevent contracting out – we see it as defending the future of public
services in Chapleau. CUPE remains available for negotiations and recently made a counter proposal to management, in the hopes of reaching a contract settlement as quickly as possible. October 8th has been set aside for mediation talks with the assistance of a provincial conciliation officer.
“We will do our best to reach a negotiated settlement, but we need a willing partner in management for that to happen,” said Bélanger. “We encourage residents to contact the Mayor and Councillors to urge them to do what it takes to reach a contract settlement to protect public services.”

Letters to the Editor I recently received the enclosed letter from the Chapleau Health Services' Chief Executive Officer, with a questionnaire asking for an evaluation of the care and service at the Long T e r m C a r e Unit/Bignucolo Residence. This letter and questionnaire has prompted me to share my observations with the readers. I diligently filled out the survey and sent it to the independent research company. My concern was not with answering the questions, but the fact that this letter was sent out with misleading information to residents' families. The letter implies that, “…should you wish to speak with someone directly or have questions, concerns or
wish to be removed from the survey…” the contact person would be Tanya Wilson (705) 864-3089. As it h a p p e n s , Ta n y a Wilson is no longer in the employ of Chapleau Health Services and has not been since last winter. Can one rest assured that once the surveys are evaluated and if there are negative impacts, that require corrective action, improvement in the care and quality in the life of our loved ones will be achieved. Unfortunately, I have my doubts!! SSCHS Management did not think it important enough to send out a letter without updating critical information (i.e.: contact person). Why would one have faith that the survey evaluation results will benefit the residents? Val Ladouceur

OBITUARY Muriel Elizabeth Gartner (nee Zufelt) Born October 26, 1932 in Chapleau, Ontario and known as Betty to family and friends, she was the eldest daughter of former Chapleau Reeve, Bertram William Zufelt and Elsie Murray Hunt. Betty graduated from North Bay Normal School in 1952 and taught in Webbwood and Nipissing Junction. After joining the Bell Telephone Company in 1955, Betty worked on North Bay’s cut over to dial telephone service in 1957. While there she met Charles Sidney Gartner and they were married at Howard Eaton Memorial Church in Widdifield Township on July 15, 1959. Residing on Lakeside Drive originally Pumphouse Road for 45 years, the Gartners raised 3 sons, Allan, Christopher (Leah Salomaa) and Bryce (Pamela Durocher). Grandma Betty was delighted with her beautiful granddaughters Olivia, Paige, Julia and Bailey. Betty also welcomed her many nieces and nephews to her beautiful house on Trout Lake where they could swim and enjoy all her lovely flowers. Passionately interested in Family History and Genealogy, Muriel (Betty) Gartner was one of the founding members of Nipissing District Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society, and a faithful volunteer for 25 years. As a result of her genealogical research Betty was able to map much of her own family history as as well as many others. She will be lovingly remembered by sisters Anne McGoldrick (Mike), Joan Cotter (James) and Leslie Morin (Richard). Cremation has taken place at Forest Lawn Crematorium and her ashes will be buried beside her husband Sid. If desired, donations to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation or Allergy/Asthma Information Association will be gratefully acknowledged as expressions of sympathy.

Chapleau $1.7 million water treatment plant officially opened in 1976 replacing pump house and water storage tank
Chapleau Moments by Michael J. Morris Official opening ceremonies for the new Chapleau water treatment plant were held on October 21, 1976, although it did not go into full operation until January 25, 1977. The plant, built by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment for the municipality at a cost of $1.7 million, replaced the pump house which had been built circa 1910. In due course, the pump house became the home of the Chapleau Air Cadets. At the same time that the plant was being built, $500,000 was spent replacing old water mains, according to William Gibson of the ministry. Murray Cheetham of the environment ministry was master of ceremonies. With the
launch of the new water treatment plant, there was no further need for the water storage tank located on the hill on Elgin Street, near the CPR station. It was demolished but not before it buckled in some places, causing a scare in the community in 1977. F l o y d Laughren the NDP MPP for Nickel Belt which included Chapleau, was present to participate in the opening ceremonies. The water plant project w as initiated in 1967 when T.C. "Terry" WayWhite was the reeve, and by 1972 an agreement had been reached between the province and the municipality which was confirmed by the Ontario Municipal Board. The other

major public project in Chapleau during the early 1970s was the replacement of the horseshoe bridge with the new structure and pedestrian overpass. Mr. Laughren said he was pleased to be in Chapleau for the water plant opening, adding that he had attended a recent Habitat conference in Va n c o u v e r w h e r e "pure water" was felt to be the greatest need of people. Rev. William Ivey of St. John's Anglican Church and Rev. Donald Maclean o f Tr i n i t y U n i t e d Church offered prayers. Clem Bernier was the first superintendent of the water plant while Graham Bertrand and Joe Clifford were the operators. The water treatment system for the community provided for 1.2 million gallons a day, with the three reservoirs able to hold about three quarters of a million gallons in case of an emergency, which would last about four hours.

ÉCOLE SACRÉ-CŒUR
DEVENEZ UN OU UNE « SUPERSTAR DE COLLECTE DE FONDS »
Depuis quelques mois, il y a un projet de construction à l'École Sacré-Cœur. Un ascenseur et un couloir seront ajoutés afin de rendre l’édifice accessible à tous. Les travaux vont bon train, malgré de petites embûches et quelques petits délais occasionnés par la météo. Plusieurs élèves aiment voir les travaux avancer... Qui sait? Avec un casque dur et de bonnes bottines, certains parmi eux pourraient peut-être en montrer aux travailleurs! Le vendredi 13 septembre, tous les élèves et le personnel de l'école ont eu l'occasion d'éplucher un épi de maïs lors de la matinée. Par la suite, des mères bénévoles ont aidé avec la cuisson de ces légumes saisonniers. À l'heure du dîner, toute l'école s'est rassemblée au gymnase pour déguster le maïs ainsi que des petits gâteaux qu'une enseignante avait préparés. Mmmmm! Quel délice!
Le centre vous invite à la conférence « Devenez une superstar en collecte de fonds » qui aura lieu le mercredi 23 octobre 2013 à 19 h 30.

the latest allegations in t h e S e n a t e s p e n ding/contract scandal. “Canadians have waited too long for Senators and MPs to come clean about their own contracts and employment arrangements – friends, girlfriends, political operators all find their way onto the Parliamentary payroll, with no oversight from the Auditor General, no disclosure under the Access to Information Act, and in some cases, apparently little-to-nowork done,” said CTF Federal Director Gregory Thomas. The CTF noted that all Government of Canada contracts over $10,000 are listed on department websites, but that the Parliament, MPs and Senators are excluded from this requirement. “This is yet another example of one set of rules for politicians and another set of rules for everyone else,” continued Thomas. The CTF is renewing its call for an Accountability Act 2.0, which would build on the accountability reforms implemented by the Conservatives in 2006. Among the needed reforms are mandatory online reporting of office, travel and hospitality expenses for all politicians, random audits of MPs and Senators by the Auditor-General, applying the Access to Information (ATI) Act to MPs and Senators, scrapping pension entitlements for those convicted of stealing from taxpayers and the ability to recall parliamentarians. MPs spent over $67 million on employees and contractors in the 2012-13 fiscal year. “It’s insulting to taxpayers that they have to hear of this
sordid affair through an RCMP investigation. If politicians had to post expenses online and were subject to ATI laws, anyone who had broken the law would already be behind bars, where they belong,” said Thomas. E q u a l l y disturbing is that if Senator Mike Duffy or any other politician is ultimately convicted of a crime, they would still hang on to their gold-plated MP pension, just like convicted fraudster
and former Senator Raymond Lavigne. “Thousands of Canadians have lost their all or part of their pensions through no fault of their own when the companies they work for went out of business. And most Canadians have no workplace pension at all,” continued Thomas. “Yet, they are still forced to fund the lavish pensions of convicted politicians who keep their snouts at the trough, even from behind bars.”
