CASINO: How close were we to getting one?

Todd Lihou todd.lihou@tc.tc

initial group of 29 zones were the 24 current OLG slots, casinos and resort casinos, as well as the potential for up to five new gaming sites in North Bay, Kenora, Wasaga Beach or Collingwood, Belleville or Quinte West, and the GTA. “At this time, there are no plans to expand the number of gaming zones across the province.

Bitonti did not answer specific questions as to when the process for considering Cornwall began, why the plan was shelved, or if it could be resurrected.

Back in April, 2012 city council was looking at getting permission from the province to allow construction of a casino in the Seaway City.

City council gave the green light to at least explore the idea of a casino in Cornwall, by asking administrators to prepare a report on the quickest way to request Queen’s Park approval

to build a gaming house here.

In early March of that year, the provincial government lifted a moratorium on casinos that had been in place since 2005. Municipalities were required to hold mandatory referendums on new casinos as part of the legislation that has now lapsed.

In 2012 economic development manager Mark Boileau penned correspondence to OLG outlining the beneifts of a Cornwall casino, but that material went nowhere.

It appears OLG has shifted to Belleville, from Cornwall, for the construction of a new casino.

The auditor general report suggests Belleville city council has voted in favour of the project, and OLG is in the process of retaining a private-sector operator who will develop a proposal for the facility.

CORNWALL, Ontario - Cornwall won’t be getting a casino any time soon, according to an Ontario auditor general report released last week. But the big question now seems to be, how close were we to actually being considered?

The Ontario auditor general released a report concerning the Ontario Lottery and

Gaming (OLG) Corporation’s modernization plan.

Buried in the report is a specific mention that a Cornwall casino, planned by OLG for winter 2015, is no longer a viable option.

“While Cornwall was initially considered as a potential site for a new gaming facility, OLG received government approval for 29 Gaming Zones across the province,” said OLG spokesperson Tony Bitonti. “Included in that

A tribute to Jim O’Brien screen gave a glimpse into his light-spirited nature. His desk and the tools of his trade, which he used for nearly half a century, were proudly displayed on stage.

“He was famous for being at every class early and greeting his students at the door jamb.

Jim’s office was also a popular gathering spot for students after class,” said Fairweather.

When he retired in June 2013, he was the longest continuously serving college faculty member in the province.

“We’ve all benefitted from his support and instructions. Jim’s dedication to teaching never diminished. He’s no longer here, but many of us can share memories of his influence in this area. The ripples have not diminished,” said Smith.

CORNWALL, Ontario – A tribute to the life and career of Jim O’Brien, a renowned professor at St. Lawrence College (SLC), was celebrated in grand style at the Cornwall campus where he taught for 45 years.

SLC staff, family, alumni, and pupils gathered in Aultsville Theatre last Friday to share their fondest memories of a college pioneer.

He was 73.

O’Brien was described as an educator, mathematician, punctual, big brother, uncle, hunter, mentor, and the biggest Canadian fan of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish college football team.

“Jim was an icon at St. Lawrence College,” said Don Fairweather, SLC campus dean.

Fairweather said class sizes were never an issue for O’Brien, who came from a large Irish family.

The math and computer teacher was born

on October 27, 1941 in Peterborough, the eldest son of James and Muriel O’Brien.

He had five brothers – Shawn, John, Mike, Brian, and Andy and three sisters Suzie, Adrianne and Patricia. John gave a tearful speech about his big brother, who he considered “a star.”

“Jim was a perpetual learner, interested in everything,” he said.

O’Brien was further described as a man with a passion for free flowing conversations with his friends, particularly over a good meal and glass of wine.

His dry wit was a constant theme.

Julie Smith, coordinator of the arts and science program, said the campus is full of “Jim-isms.” Most comical was referring to his students by the ministry term ‘funding units’ or FUs. “He was generous to students, quick to lend a text book to those who can’t afford one. Many students have and will continue to benefit from his generous donations,” said Smith.

A picture of O’Brien projected on a large

POLITIGALS RALLY:

Conference gives women a running start in politics Adam Brazeau ADAM.BRAZEAU@TC.TC

5571735

CORNWALL, Ontario – The ins and outs of campaigning for election were hot topics at the Eastern Ontario Women Leadership Conference on Saturday.

Nearly 40 young and established women attended the conference at Ramada Cornwall last Saturday, to hear a panel of elected officials,

professional leaders, and campaign trainers discuss the difficulties of breaking into politics.

The event was hosted by Politigal, a volunteer-led Cornwall organization founded

by Alyssa Blais, executive director of the Agape Centre.

“My hope was to provide local women thinking about running in a municipal election with enough information and courage to run.

And if they’re not, maybe they can support other women in politics,” said Blais.

Blais said only 25 per cent of leadership rolls in municipal, provincial, and federal politics are held by women.

The campaign ‘boot camp’ featured a councilors’ panel with politicians Bernadette Clement, Katherine Hobbs, Elaine Macdonald, Marianne Wilkinson, and Carma Williams.

A series of workshops and presentations focused on how to run a successful campaign with an emphasis on campaign signs and literature, working with the media, the influence social media has on young women, and using social media as a political tool.

From left are Bernadette Clement, Marianne Wilkinson, Elaine Macdonald, Katherine Hobbs, and Carma Williams. Adam Brazeau have to grow a thick skin, you have to observe people who were successful, and be prepared to sacrifice a lot. But the important thing about all that work is that you get to give back to the community you love.”

Being an entrepreneur is the only thing keeping her from running in the October municipal election.

“I think this city is ripe for change, and if you want to request change you have to be part of it,” she said. “I’m half-way to a decision. If not this year, then in 2018 I’m running for council.”

City resident Gillian Oxley-Harper was there to learn from women who have experienced the wild ride of a campaign trail.

“I wanted to hear what the process was and what the challenges are for women in politics,” said Oxley-Harper, Rachel’s Kids vicechairperson.

The conference gave her an equal dose of inspiration and insight into the challenges of pursuing a political career.

“It’s a bigger commitment than I thought it was in terms of time,” she said. “You really

Hike for Hospice surpasses $52,000 fundraising goal Adam Brazeau adam.brazeau@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – For three years, Melanie Lapierre has been hiking for hospice in memory of loved ones.

Her touching story was one of many at the 12th Hike for Hospice in Cornwall last Sunday.

With her two-year-old daughter Emilie and mother, Lucie, Lapierre made a familiar half-hour trek with 150 others that began and ended at the hospice, located at 1507 Second Street West.

“We wouldn’t miss it,” said Lapierre, a 30-year-old city resident.

Her grandmother passed away at the hospice in 2010. But her connection to the palliative care facility doesn’t end there. Lapierre’s uncle and a good friend of the family also spent their last days at the hospice.

“Today, we walk and think of our loved ones,” she said.

Sandy Collette, fundraising co-ordinator for

Carefor Hospice Cornwall, said the event kicks off National Hospice Paliative Care Week in Canada, which runs from May 4 to 10.

“I’m glad to say that we exceeded our goal and have raised $54,000,” said Collette. “No matter what our goal is we seem to reach and surpass it.”

The top fundraiser for Hike for Hospice was once again Ray O’Collin. He collected $8,000.

The top team was Your Credit Union with a total of $13,187.

For many families in attendance, this is their first time back to the hospice since losing a loved one.

“We try to make it a happy event so it’s not just coming back to remember the sorrow they experienced. We make it a celebration of a person’s life,” she said.

But both Collette and Lapierre noticed that attendance was down this year, likely due to the rainy weather.

Since hospice only receives partial government funding, every year $500,000 has to be raised to meet their operational budget.

“Last year, we raised in excess of $500,000.

That really helps cushion because you never know. For instance, we have a company that’s closing. There’s going to be 200 people out of a job and sometimes that has a domino effect - it’s taking donor dollars out of our community,” said Collette.

She credits events like Hike for Hospice and the community support it draws for helping

with the day-to-day expenses needed to provide quality end of life care in a home-like setting to residents of Cornwall, The United Counties of SDG, as well as Prescott and Russell.

“We just started our fiscal year the first of April, we’re tracking very well so far,” she said.

MacLennan, whose own liver had been ravaged by a massive cyst that had completely destroyed two of the three veins that transport blood through the organ, underwent an eighthour surgery April 30 beginning at 3 p.m.

Her husband Hamish said in an interview from the Toronto General Hospital that all indications are the surgery was a success, but it’s still early. “Her first set of blood tests can back good,” he said. “The blood is flowing through the liver and the liver is processing it as it should.”

But there are still concerns about possible

infection and rejection, so doctors will be monitoring her progress closely in the coming days. Of course the concerns now are nothing compared to the joy the family experienced at finally seeing the surgery completed.

MacLennan has been waiting years for the procedure and many times made the long trip to Toronto to get prepped for surgery, only to have the procedure cancelled at the last minute thanks to incompatibility. “This is a new lease on life for her,” said Hamish. “She can hopefully get back to some normalcy and teaching.”

The condition got so bad that she went public last year, in hopes that a so-called “live” donor might step up and offer a portion of their liver to help.

The liver can actually regenerate when just a portion of it is removed from the body.

MacLennan is a mother of two who teaches at Holy Trinity Secondary School, and road a

medical roller coaster over the last 10 years.

She had been suffering with a cyst adenoma - a cyst with “a mind of its own” attached to her liver. In an interview last year she said she was one of only nine in the world to have such a condition. The destructive mass, filled with bile, had grown so large it was beginning to actually rotate her right kidney.

Complications since the cyst was discovered in 2002 read like a medical resume from hell.

Tubes had been inserted in the cyst to help draw away the bile which adds to its size. But with no bile being used to help her digest food, MacLennan had lost 90 pounds, her hair was falling out and she had little to no strength.

Hopefully that will all change with her new liver. In a social media post before her surgery Kim MacLennan with her daughter Alex.

MacLennan thanked the donor, an unknown person who passed away. “Another half hour “I am grateful to the donor and family and I pray and I will be on the transplant floor,” she said. that this liver is indeed my gift of life.”

LUNG TRANSPLANT:

Alice Ferguson’s long wait is finally over CORNWALL, Ontario - A Cornwall woman has undergone a successful double-lung transplant in Toronto.

Alice Ferguson underwent the surgery Sunday.

Ferguson was diagnosed in March 2012 with chronic hypertension pulmonary fibrosis.

In short, the elasticity of her lungs was failing, which led to shortness of breath and other medical complications that ultimately had doctors determine her best course of treatment would be a transplant.

“They’re saying she is stable and all her vitals are great,” said Ferguson’s daughter Shannon

Calgary so she can do my laundry for me,” she laughed. “She can’t actually laugh, but I can tell in her head she is laughing.”

If all goes well Ferguson will spend the next three weeks in intensive care before beginning a regimen of therapy to build up her strength. She will have to remain in Toronto during that time.

Following that she will have to continue to see doctors regularly over the course of several months.

It’s the second transplant in less than a week for a Cornwall resident. Last week Kim MacLennan, a Cornwall teacher, underwent a successful liver transplant.

on Tuesday. She flew from her home in Calgary to be at her mom’s side. “They’re hoping to take the breathing tube out.”

Last year fundraisers were held in Cornwall for Ferguson, who is well-known throughout the city for her volunteer work and time as a businessperson.

She spent the better part of a year living in a Toronto apartment waiting for a call from doctors, in the event lungs became available.

That call came at 3 a.m. Sunday. By 11 a.m. she was being wheeled into the operating room for a surgery that would last nine hours.

Shannon said her mom is alert, but unable to speak because of the breathing tube. That being said, the two are still able to communicate.

“I’ve been telling her I want to get her out to

KICK IN THE TEETH: Vandals ruin soccer pitch Todd Lihou

TODD.LIHOU@TC.TC

CORNWALL, Ontario - Talk about a kick right where it hurts.

Leadership with the Seaway Valley Soccer Club were left reeling last week when some vandals decided to turn some donuts in what witnesses said was a black SUV at the Kinsmen Soccer Fields.

The result? As much as $5,000 worth of damage and the likelihood that one field won’t be ready when the busy minor soccer season starts in a few weeks.

Club vice-president Rene Longchamps

was frustrated.

“There’s a lot of anger and disappointment,” he said. “As a volunteer group we work our butts off to keep this material in good shape.”

What made things worse is that neighbours across the street from the field said the vandals returned a day after creating huge ruts in the turf and did it all over again.

Longchamps said after contacting the media his next stop will be the Cornwall police.

“We were kind of hoping we could catch them in the act,” he said.

The club is looking at putting some

Rene Longchamps stands in front of a damaged soccer pitch in the city’s west end. boulders around the field to act as a barrier - something similar was done just west of the field that was ruined in another case of vandalism years ago.

But that won’t come cheap either -

Longchamps suggests it could run as much as $20,000.

If you have any information concerning the incident, please call Cornwall police at 613-933-5000.

ROUTE 66: Father-son duo lead the pack for prostate cancer Adam Brazeau ADAM.BRAZEAU@TC.TC

CORNWALL, Ontario – Kikkert, 69, and his 47-year-old son, who lives in Langley, BC with his family, will be travelling from the windy City of Chicago, IL to sun-drenched Santa Monica, CA across one of America’s first highways - the so-called Main Street of America, from May 18 until the end of June.

In 2001, Kikkert was diagnosed with the disease. He underwent brachytherapy, a treatment for prostate cancer, followed by three weeks of external beam radiation therapy.

“During the entire process I continued to do my gym workouts and carry on as if nothing was wrong,” said Kikkert. “As a result, I did not experience any side effects during treatment or any after effects. I have remained cancer free for almost 12 years, and I continue to exercise regularly.”

For two years, he’s been planning the fatherson motorcycle adventure.

Their journey will take them through several states to California, where they will then ride back up the West Coast Highway to Tim’s home.

Kikkert will then ride back across Canada.

Kikkert and his son have raised nearly $50,000 in nine years for prostate cancer research by riding in two different motorcycle charity fundraisers. But this time they’re riding side-by-side across Route 66 raising funds and awareness for both rides simultaneously.

No stranger to the fast lane, Kikkert feels confident about travelling nearly 350 kilometres a day. To keep his strength up, he hits the gym three times a week.

“Due to my battle with this disease and through my love of motorcycles, I began participating in the Ottawa ‘Ride for Dad’ in 2005 and have every year since,” said Kikkert.

In 2011, Tim rode in British Columbia’s Ride To Live for the first time with his daughter by his side. He was hooked.

Both father and son agree, it was encouraging to see men standing up and recognizing that this cancer needs to come out of the shadows and be discussed – something men are traditionally not very good at.

Cornwall’s Bob Kikkert, 69, will be cruising down historic Route 66 with his son to fight back “We have had a lot of fun interacting with all against prostate cancer, an affliction he knows all too well. Adam Brazeau those people each year, raising awareness about this cancer and best of all, hearing about their To follow the Kikkerts as they ride the stories and experiences in their families with access to their adventure through pictures of rides, and information on prostate cancer and Mother Road for prostate cancer or to make a prostate and other cancers,” he said. on where the funds go from their efforts. donation, visit TimBob Kikkert on Facebook.

CORNWALL, Ontario – The Cornwall Hospital Foundation on Thursday announced that Erin Killoran, a former Heart and Stroke Foundation staple with 13 years experience, is their new executive director.

Allan Wilson, chair of the foundation’s board of directors, says Killoran demonstrated remarkable leadership by stepping into the role of acting executive director, after former executive director Connie Vardy retired earlier this year.

“Erin was the search committee’s unanimous choice among a strong field of candidates,” said Wilson in a media statement.

Before stepping into her interim role at the foundation, Killoran was the manager of development and major gifts—an integral member of the To Your Health! campaign team that raised $3.5 million in less than one year.

The foundation is betting on her wealth of experience in senior roles, specifically her 13-year tenure with the Heart and Stroke Foundation, one of Canada’s leading health charities.

Killoran holds a bachelor of arts degree in health studies from Brock University.

“Erin brings her passion for enhancing and strengthening the foundation’s impact on generating revenue for our hospital to meet the

Leading ladies fight breast cancer at Mother-Daughter Night Adam Brazeau adam.brazeau@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – Talk about girl power! For 15 years, hundreds of local women have rallied in Cornwall to celebrate a sacred bond and raise money for local charities.

Over 260 women indulged without a guilty consience at the annual Mother-Daughter Night fundraising event hosted at Ramada Inn, last Thursday evening. Two large ballrooms fit for royalty were overflowing with desserts, hors d’oeuvres, fine foods, champagne, and martinis - all served by male volunteers.

Joanne Brault, director of sales at the hotel and conference centre, wasn’t surprised the event sold out or that over $11,500 was raised for breast cancer research. All 265 tickets sell out every year. And nearly $100,000 has been collected for various charities and non-profit groups.

“It started as an evening for women prior to Mother’s Day and it’s grown year by year,” said Brault, event founder and organizer.

For a decade, the funds have been donated to the SDG branch of the Canadian Cancer Society.

The event also featured a mini trade show with 19 booths. Local businesses tailored to women showcased their services and the city’s entrepreneurial spirit.

Brault noted that Mother-Daughter Night highlights the sweet side of the battle of the sexes.

“Men from the community come and serve and they’re not even being paid,” she said.

Local resident Victoria St. Pierre was thrilled to take her mother, Christine, out for a ladies night of epic proportions.

“She’s my whole world. Since this is the mother-daughter night of the year, I thought I would bring the gem of my life,” said St. Pierre.

Making strides against breast cancer

2010 Chevrolet Avalanche

adam.brazeau@tc.tc

CORNWALL, Ontario – This dance party raised more than just the roof - dozens of women donning pink in solidarity took over the Cornwall Square to help raise over $3,000 at a breast cancer walk last Sunday.

For the third consecutive year, the annual Cleo Mother’s Day Walk for Breast Cancer teamed up with Christal Bowen’s Zumba With Christal.

Together they’ve transformed this event into a Zumba dance party, called Connect With Christal and Cleo at Cornwall Square.

In total, 125 participants danced for a cure or walked for the cause.

City resident Julie Jarvo, 46, single-handedly raised $850.

“I’m doing this to support my sister and some of my dearest friends who have been afflicted with breast cancer,” said Jarvo.

Fundraising for the disease has always been a passion of hers. So being a new member of the Zumba community made the event a natural fit.

Upstairs, Johanne Guay, a breast cancer

survivor, walked to raise awareness.

“An event like this brings women together and we share what we’ve dealt with,” said Guay.

“It keeps cancer in the forefront of people’s minds so it’s not the deep dark secret it used to be.”

In August 2012, she was diagnosed with the disease. Her life was put on pause by surgery, four months of chemotherapy, and three weeks of radiation therapy.

In March 2013, her luck changed for the better. The treatments stopped and two months later Guay returned to work.

“If there’s any message I want to put out there, it’s to stay strong you have to be positive.

And you have to have the support of the people around you so you don’t feel like you’re going through it alone,” she said.

The Cornwall store has hosted the event for 12 years. By adding a fun fitness component to the annual walk, attendance and support continue to grow.

Bowen was on CTV Ottawa earlier in the week showcasing the event with a live Zumba class.

“This collaboration has been fantastic,” said Nicole Rose, store manager at Cleo.

We’ve been caught before when the lights went out Todd Lihou TODD.LIHOU@TC.TC

Stop the record – I’ve heard this song before.

Last week this bureau and our pals at Corus radio broke the story (I think they beat us by 90 seconds, but I still consider a tie) that those who work at Canlyte will soon be designated the people who “used” to work at Canlyte.

The venerable light-bulb manufacturer, which has operated under the radar in Cornwall for 27 years, will be phasing out employees over the course of the next 11 months before ultimately shutting the doors next March.

The result is terrible.

Nearly 200 people who were paid halfdecently, had benefits and helped to keep the local economy chugging along by paying mortgages, taxes and buying local goods are now staring into the abyss of unemployment.

Canlyte is one of those local employers that really kind of did its own thing. For 27 years it was light bulbs and lighting related material. They were rarely featured in media stories, and many people I spoke with about the closure had one question for me when I mentioned the name of the company: “Who are they?”

But that all changed when word began to leak out that the facility would close because

of a downturn in the market specific to lighting and its products.

CBC reported light bulbs are in a time of flux across Canada after the federal government banned manufacturers from supplying incandescent bulbs to Canada beginning on Jan. 1, as part of rules aimed at improving efficiency.

We’ve been here before. Courtaulds, Levi’s, StarTek...and the grand daddy of them all, Domtar.

I can remember my old history teacher, Bill Metcalfe, was asked by a student what life would be like in Cornwall after Domtar closed.

He put both hands to his mouth and blew loudly, making the sound of wind whipping through what he forecast would be an empty city.

Domtar closed its doors March 31, 2006.

We all braced for the end…but it never came.

Eight years later and we’re all still here.

Was it easy? Of course not. I know people who went from a job that paid well north of $30 an hour to the employment insurance office.

Others who worked at Domtar made even more – for doing a lot less, but that’s a story for another day.

My favourite image from that day in March, 2006 was shot by Standard-Freeholder photographer Rachele Labrecque. It showed a Domtar worker, walking onto the property on

what would be his last day of work, defiantly pumping his fist into the air.

The message was clear: we’ll be back.

And we are. Cornwall is hardly the same city it was eight years ago…or even 20 years ago.

We’ve been forced to roll with the punches, take one for the team and/or find the silver lining on a number of occasions.

In fact, if there is a cliché out there, Cornwall has used it at one time or another when it comes to jobs and the local economy.

The Canlyte is another knife in the stomach for the local economy – make no mistake. Of course much has been made of the work done to attract business to the industrial park, where more people are working at places like Eleven Points Logistics, Matrix and the like.

The wages are nothing compared to what

employees of the former Domtar facility used to rake in, but they are enough to put food on the table and pay for mortgages in a lot of cases.

Still, it must feel like two steps forward, one step back when word comes that yet another manufacturing concern in Cornwall is closing.

But my point is simple, Cornwall has been written off more times than I can count. The closure at Canlyte is another example of a challenge we will have to meet.

And we will. I’m talking from experience.

I’ve paddled upstream when the tidal wave of job loss descended on our house. It’s awful and I genuinely feel badly for those people who’ve been pink slipped.

But they’ll be back…our track record speaks for itself.

Elections in India are underway Sultan Jessa Opinion SJESSA@SYMPATICO.CA

Elections are underway in the world’s largest democracy.

It may sound strange, but it will take around five weeks before the election results are known.

Yes, I am talking about India, which has a population of more than 1.3 billion.

A total of 543 seats are being contested.

Results of this crucial election are eagerly awaited all around the world.

With 814 million eligible voters, the

staggered approach is necessary.

All indications are Narendra Modi of the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is the biggest threat to the governing Congress Party headed by the Gandhi dynasty.

BJP is expected to do well but may fall short of a 272-seat majority, making a coalition government a likely outcome.

Polls are polls suggest the Congress Party will suffer major setbacks due to ongoing corruption scandals and recent years of economic slowdown.

On the other hand Modi has been credited for the economic growth, the western state, of which he has been the chief minister for 11 years.

An astrologer from Chennai K.V.

Gopalkrishan has predicted that Modi will be the next prime minister of India.

He has predicted that this election will produce the worst showing by the Congress which will only win 63 seats.

During recent visits to India, I was stunned by the economic growth and prosperity in Gujarat.

The Gandhi family is facing its biggest political threat in more than a decade, with Rahul Gandhi, the 43-year-old family scion, leading the Congress’s struggling campaign.

This youthful leader has not been able to rejuvenate India’s rapidly faltering economy and many local Indians see him as privileged, aloof and out of touch with poor and struggling ordinary people.

And while the Congress Party is facing this backlash, Modi is not liked by everyone.

His critics question whether the Hindu nationalist candidate can be a truly secular leader because of his past actions.

Modi is accused of failing to take responsible actions for communal rioting that left more than 1000 people dead in his state in 2002.

Gujarat’s chief minister is accused of doing little to stop the anti-Muslim rampage, though he still adamantly continues to deny any wrongdoing and has never been charged with a crime.

Astrologers and political pundits predict that Modi will cruise to become the leader of the world’s massive democracy.

Letters to the Editor

www.cornwallseawaynews.com

We have a serious tick problem Dear editor: I can tell you that this area is now infested with ticks, removing six so far since spring while exercising my dog. Ticks burrow into the skin to extract blood and inject the bacteria into its host’s blood stream causing Lyme disease. It is mostly our children who are at risk and are the ones whom are infected unknowingly with Lyme disease.

This black-legged tick, commonly known as the deer tick, has been encroaching with

greater numbers deeper and deeper yearly into Canada (six provinces) due to increasing temperatures and increasing Lyme disease cases dramatically.

Ticks feed three times in their two-year lifespan. Miniscule larvae will usually feed on frogs, snakes or attach to any blood hosts to become nymphs and then feed upon small rodents to become adults which attach to larger hosts and feed until they are fully engorged. They then will fall off their host

and die, leaving behind a slew of eggs. The incubation period for eggs is a maximum of 120 days and most will survive the winters.

My family doctor has informed me of another tick that’s has been moving slowly northward, it’s called the Lone Star Tick and has been known to carry a certain type of bacteria. If transmitted into humans through its bite you could break out every time you consume red meat with a severe medical condition called anaphylaxis or a mild

reaction called hives Spraying can reduce and control their numbers along with other measures to stop the future spreading and lessen the number of new Lyme disease cases diagnosed each year.

I hope that our elected representatives take a serious initiative into this upcoming threat that is now attacking our community.

McDonell looks like a lock to win this one EDITORIAL@CORNWALLSEAWAYNEWS.COM

With the official start to the June 12 provincial election just under way, StormontDundas-South Glengarry Liberal candidate John Earle is playing a game of catch-up.

Early provincial polling might show the Fibs and Conservatives in a dead heat, but that isn’t the case in S-D-SG were the Libs are starting out as underdogs, and then some.

Not only do they have to wipe out a huge gap between themselves and the Tories, but they have the NDP, with a formidable candidate, breathing down their necks. That is enough to have some of the old Grits spinning in their graves In the 2011 election race which saw the Liberals forfeit ownership of the riding in a big way, former South Glengarry mayor Jim McDonell, shouldering the Conservative flag, had time to take a nap before watching Liberal challenger Mark MacDonald stumble across the finish line, barely ahead of the New Democratic Party’s Elaine MacDonald.

McDonell’s 21,615 votes represented 55.2% of the total cast, a gain of 6,833 from 2007. Liberal MacDonald pulled in 8,483, just 405 more than Elaine MacDonald (no relation). It was the NDP’s best showing since the days of George Samis. And going into this race, they have a good shot at finishing second.

Gentleman Jim’s huge margin of victory was one of the biggest turnarounds in local riding history. In 2007, Jim Brownell kept the riding red with 48.8% (18,609) of the

Patrick and Valentine.

TRIVIA At age 26, he became the youngest person to be elected to Cornwall city council, a milestone that was later broken by Korey Kennedy.

SPORTS STUFF Shawn Martelle, a sergeant with Cornwall Police Service, was a pretty proud pop when his son Kyle, a 15-year-old goaltender with the Seaway Valley major bantam AA club, was selected

by Hawkesbury Hawks in the Central Canada Hockey League draft. “It felt good,” said dad who is a part-time scout for the Hawks and was seated at the draft table. The only downside was that grand dad, former mayor Ron Martelle, wasn’t there to take in the moment. The deceased senior Martelle played for the Royals in the 1950s and son Shawn was the Royals’ seventh-round OHL draft pick in 1986.

vote, while the Tory candidate Chris Savard finished second with 38.8% (14,782). Lori Taylor picked up 7.3% (2,795) for the NDP. In 2003 Brownell breezed across the finish line with 19,558 votes, far ahead of Tory standardbearer Todd Lalonde’s 13,948.

Tom Manley gave the fledgling Green Party a flicker of hope with 2,098 votes, 460 more than the NDP’s Matt Sumegi, which shows just how far the NDP have come.

So, what happened to the Fiberals in 2011?

Obviously, a lot of Brownell votes jumped ship, landing on the McDonell deck.

And, just as damaging, a chunk of Liberal votes went to Elaine MacDonald’s wellorganized camp.

A case could be made that the hugely popular Brownell attracted a large number of “soft” Conservative votes, and ditto for less than diehard NDP voters; they were voting for Brownell, not for the Liberal brand. It was the same with George Samis. Most of the votes were cast for Samis, not the NDP, which is why the party went to hades in a handbasket after Samis retired.

You can never say never, especially this early in an election campaign, but the Liberals will need to throw a lot of Hail Mary passes (dial-a-prayer wouldn’t hurt either) to bite into the huge McDonell 2007 total and to keep from being overtaken by the MacDonald run for a second-place finish.

Early call: If there is a photo finish it will involve the NDP and Liberals ... for second place.

National Nursing Week

May 12-18, 2014

Nursing leaders pave the way Nurses: theirs are the first faces we see when we’re sick or injured. They bring the human touch to the healthcare experience. And they are always advocating for more accessible, efficient, and organized healthcare services. The theme of National Nurses Week 2014 is “Nurses Leading the Way”, and it is the perfect occasion to take a look at how nursing leaders in the past helped bring about the excellent front-line medical care we have today.

The profession of nursing has not been around for a long time. Before the midnineteenth century, the word “nurse” for most people meant the kindly lady who nourished and cared for the babies and children of the wealthy. When it came to health care, folks preferred to take their chances with home remedies and midwives and nuns, leaving hospitals to the truly desperate and destitute. But a few bold leaders saw that there was a need for such a thing as nursing care: a practice wherein the ill and injured could receive hygienic medical care from a caring intermediary between physician and patient.

Of course, one of the great nursing leaders in history is Florence Nightingale.

But why exactly is she so famous? She is considered to be the first advocate for modern nursing. British-born and wealthy, the story goes that she was horrified by the grim conditions faced by injured soldiers of the Crimean War. She went on to found the first non-religious nursing school ever, at a London hospital. Even today, the practical nurse pledge that is recited by many nursing graduates is based on the Nightingale Pledge: “May my life be devoted to ... the high ideals of the nursing profession.”

Reunion time It was 50 years ago, on May 28 that the Cornwall Hotel Dieu School of Nursing class of 1964 graduated with great pride. The class will be gathering together at The Gananoque Inn and Spa in September for a three-day reunion. In the first row are Donna (Ravary) Carra; Rita (Theoret) Kennedy; Judy (Hunt) Fontaine (Deceased); Mary Ellen (McAlear) Villeneuve; Verna (Lauzon) Coleman; Denise (Hebert) Latulippe.

In the second row are Helen Cameron (Deceased); Micheline (Latulippe) Bougie; Sheila Meek; Lise (Cuerrier) Mauro; Nicole (Burelle) Nilson; Geraldine (Leblanc) Aubin. In the third row are Lucy (Vingerhoets) Jarrett; Margaret (Filtz) Billard; Edelene MacDonald; Norma (Belanger) Shaver. In the fourth row are Regina (Koelmans) Blohon; Eileen (Pilon) Newbigging; Louise (Theriault) Stobert; Carol (Bradley) Aube.

Nursing Week May 12th-18th, 2014

The Board of Directors is pleased to recognize our Nursing Staff for their professionalism, commitment and care offered to our residents, patients and their families.

Nurses are the backbone of health care

National Nursing Week is an opportunity to celebrate and say “Thank You” for outstanding resident/patient-centered care and dedication.

The organization of the healthcare system in Canada relies heavily on the competence and training of registered nurses. These men and women are leaders in practical medicine, relentlessly advocating for better policy making, better care, and better services. It is no surprise, then, that during National Nursing Week, the Canadian Nurses Association is once again promoting the theme “Nursing: a leading force for change”.

The women and men who make up Canada’s nursing forces are indeed leaders in their field. They staff public health clinics in communities all across the country; they are on the front lines of medical care, working

We thank you for being

to prevent communicable disease, such as STDs, educate mothers and fathers about infant care, and ensure that young children are properly vaccinated against preventable illnesses.

Under the auspices of Health Canada’s First Nations and Inuit Health Branch, about 675 registered nurses provide primary healthcare in about 200 remote healthcare centres, along with only 22 doctors. These nurses are often re qui red to make splitsecond decisions with no on-site medical backup; such decisions can sometimes mean life or death for the people involved. There is little doubt; these nurses are truly the face of leadership in medicine today.

Having difficulty hearing?

National Nursing Week is a time to celebrate the many contributions nurses make in our communities.

Have you, or someone you know, been cared for by one of our nurses? This year, your Conrwall Community Hospital is excited to ask you to nominate someone you feel exemplifies what it means to be a nurse and “a leading force for change.”

If you have someone in mind please go to the “Upcoming Events” page under News & Events on cornwallhospital.ca for more information and to fill out a nomination form for consideration. You can also call in your nomination by dialing 613-938-4240 extension 1989. The deadline for submissions is Saturday, May 11.

Each weekday during National Nursing Week a name will be selected from those you nominated, according to who best demonstrated the CCH ICARE values of Integrity, Compassion, Accountability, Respect, and Engagement. Have your favourite nurse recognized to give them the chance to win a free night out at a local restaurant.

CORNWALL, Ontario – Rather than being behind the wheel of a race car, Paul Renaud fulfills his need for speed under the hood.

He opened Paul’s Auto Body in Cornwall nine years ago with his brother, Jean-Guy. Renaud celebrated the anniversary of his family business and its long and exciting journey with a free car wash and BBQ Saturday.

The customer appreciation event was packed with loyal clientele and a lineup of

tricked-out muscle cars.

Since its grand opening, Paul’s Auto Body has been located at 115 Eleventh Street West.

Renaud chalked up the auto body shop’s longevity to family and friends, dedication, customers that rely on quality work, and word of mouth.

He credited his wife, Sandy, daughter, Chelsea, 23, and 21-year-old son, Casey, a mechanic at the shop, for their support.

“We do a variety of things: mechanical, body, custom. But we also do a lot of other things that most auto body shops don’t do,” said Renaud. “We’re a little bit different. We do the mechanical aspect of it as well, instead of just focusing on straight body work and collisions. And we incorporate it all in one

Seniors project receives federal support Roxanne Delage ROXANNEDELAGE@GMAIL.COM

CORNWALL, Ontario - Thanks to financial support, announced today by MP Guy Lauzon, seniors in Stormont-DundasSouth Glengarry will have new opportunities to participate in social and educational activities.

The first local project called, “The Cooking Circle,” will receive $25,000. the announcement was made at the Seaway Valley Community Health Centre (SVCHC), on Pitt Street in Cornwall.

In partnership with the Boys and Girls Club and TR Leger Immigrant Services, the SVCHC staff will support seniors while they mentor youth in cooking skills, and in return, the youth will pass along their expertise in

technology, such as iPads, Facebook, Twitter.

“Our government recognizes the valuable contribution seniors have made to our society and the economy” said Lauzon. “By supporting New Horizons for Seniors Program projects, we are acting to ensure that seniors maintain a good quality of life and continue to be active members of their communities.”

SVCHC will run six sessions, for six weeks, for high-school-age youth and older adults, 55 and over. A professional cook will work alongside a dietitian to increase knowledge of nutrition.

Older adults and youth interested in participating can register by contacting SVCHC at 613-936-0306 ext. 229. Students will receive community service hours for their participation.

Paul’s Auto Body also proudly sponsors two race cars at the Cornwall Motor Speedway.

“We’re at the race track on the weekend, I like to support what our hobbies are,” said Renaud.

Writ dropped Wednesday, local returning offices ready for business Todd Lihou TODD.LIHOU@TC.TC

CORNWALL, Ontario - The writ was dropped provincially Wednesday, and Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry returning offices are ready to go as voters prepare to head to the polls for the 41st provincial general election.

Local Returning Officer William Upper has been in close contact with his staff as developments unfold.

“Each of our offices, located in Cornwall and Winchester, will be open beginning Thursday,” he said. “We will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day until the final ballot is counted on June 12. This is the core of our democratic system.”

Offices are located at 902 Second St. West, in Cornwall, and at the North Dundas

Municipal Hall, 636 St. Lawrence St., in Winchester. Both locations are wheelchair accessible.

The writ is an official document issued in the name of the queen which states that the election has begun, Upper added, and it sets out the dates for the close of nominations, and for election day.

There will be a symbolic reading of the writ on the steps of the County Courthouse, in Cornwall, at a date to be announced in the near future.

Beginning May 15 voters may vote by special ballot. Special ballot voting is a process that provides eligible electors who cannot or do not wish to vote at an advance poll or on polling day the opportunity to cast their ballot at local returning offices.

“Elections Ontario and the voting district of Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry have removed all possible obstacles barring the voter from casting their vote,” said Upper. “The goal for us is to be as accessible as possible.”

CORNWALL, Ontario - Get ready for a more expensive electric bill.

Cornwall Electric rates will increase 2.29 per cent July 1, the utility said Monday.

Michael Pescod, regional manager of Cornwall Electric, attributed the increase to the long-term wholesale electricity supply contracts previously negotiated with Hydro Quebec.

A residential customer using 800 kWh per month will see their monthly invoice increase by $2.34.

The long-term wholesale agreements continue to provide security of supply and rate stability.

Cornwall Electric eligible residential and small business customers continue to receive the Ontario Clean Energy Benefit which will save 10 per cent on electricity costs. Also, Cornwall Electric customers are not subject to the debt retirement charge like other in Ontario.

“Like all other utilities in Ontario, the wholesale cost of electricity in Cornwall is passed through to customers,” he said. “The long-term contracts with Hydro Quebec provide security of supply and rate stability to December 2019.

“Cornwall Electric rates continue to compare favorably to surrounding electrical utilities.”

The wholesale cost of electricity represents approximately 80 per cent of the customer’s total bill. The remaining 20 per cent represents the distribution charges.

These distribution charges pay for Cornwall Electric to deliver power from the Cedars Rapids Transmission lines to customer homes and businesses and to provide for system maintenance and capital equipment

replacement.

In 2014, Cornwall Electric’s capital program will invest approximately $4 million in distribution system expansions and capital replacements.

Cornwall Electric supplies electricity to 24,200 customers in the City of Cornwall, South Glengarry, South Stormont, and the Ontario portion of the Mohawk Territory of Akwesasne.

What you really believe Can you ever really know what you truly believe? How do you determine what you actually believe? Your beliefs are affected

Donald Ernest Wightman

1936-2014 In loving memory of a wonderful husband, father and grandfather, the family would like to thank everyone for the love and support shown to them.

Rev. Ruth Draffin, thank you for the warm and personal memorial service. I don’t think any of us will ever be able to listen to Amazing Grace and not think of Donald as Candy Provost left us all spellbound with her beautiful voice and musical arrangements.

We would also like to send a special thank you to all our neighbors and friends. We were deeply touched by all who dropped off food, sent flowers to the church, donated to the Hospice and voiced their support and warm sentiments.

Donald will be truly missed, but it is comforting to know that he will live on in the hearts of all who share their grief with us during this difficult time.

Warm Regards, Linda Wightman and Family

actually believe. True personal convictions of the heart emerge from such a four-fold examination. Test # 1: You never really know what it is you stand for until what you believe costs you something. Test # 2: You never really know what it is you believe until someone or something tries to push you off base. Test # 3: You never really know what it is you live by until you confront views head-

on that strongly oppose your own. And finally, Test # 4: you never really know what it is you profess until your whole world is shaken to its very foundations. So…what is it…that you really believe? Take some time to think this one through. I would strongly recommend that you consult the Bible to guide you in the process. Don’t do it all alone! Let God’s holy Word point the way!

MC DONALD, Charles – Mr. Charlie Bernard Mc Donald of Vernon, BC, born and raised in St. Andrews West, Ontario, passed away suddenly in his sleep on Saturday April 12, 2014 at the age of 64 years. He was the cherished son of the late Leonard (1985) and Florence (1982) Mc Donald of St. Andrews West. Charlie was much loved by his sisters Marg Gobert (Wilf) from Calgary and Brenda Munro (Blair) from St. Andrews West. He was the proud uncle of Geoff Gobert and Jen Gobert Da Silva, Jason, Curtis and Jana Munro. Charlie was predeceased by several loved aunts, uncles, cousins and his grandparents.

He leaves wonderful childhood memories with his many cousins and friends in the area. Charlie thrived on hockey, lacrosse and baseball in his elementary and high school years in St. Andrews. A car accident in 1970, however, changed his life path. He spent a number of years in Calgary before moving to beautiful Vernon, BC. We are grateful for the love and compassion of his special friends Arla Mc Leod and George Rutty in Lumby, BC, and his priest, Father Dale Normandeau and fellow parishioners of St. James Catholic Church in Vernon. Charlie is now free of the pain and limitations he endured from all of his injuries. Perhaps he is now enjoying playing some lacrosse again with his dear childhood friend Charlie Mac Gregor in heaven or sitting down with him for a serious game of chess.

Cremation has taken place. A spring burial next to his beloved parents will take place in St. Andrews Parish Cemetery at a later date. Special thanks to Pleasant Valley Funeral Home in Vernon, BC. If so desired, contributions in memory to the St. Andrews Parish Restoration Fund would be appreciated by the family.

Bark and compost day held Saturday CORNWALL, Ontario - The Cornwall & District Horticultural Society, in partnership with the City of Cornwall, will be hosting the 9th annual Bark & Compost Day at the Cornwall landfill on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

“This event benefits the entire community by raising funds for various beautification projects in the city,” said Mayor Bob Kilger.

Wood mulch and compost will be sold pre-bagged or by the scoop.

With the environment in mind, you may also recycle your bags from last year or bring your blue boxes or similar containers for filling on-the-spot by society volunteers.

Bags (or containers) of each product will be sold for $3 each, and residents who buy 10

will get one free.

Scoops will be $25 for the first scoop and $15 for each additional scoop. Two scoops fill the average pick-up truck.

One dollar from the sale of each bag/ container of compost will be donated to the Children’s Christmas Fund for the purpose of cereal and/or milk.

The mulch, locally produced, is excellent for moisture retention and weed control when applied generously to flowerbeds and around newly-planted trees and shrubs.

It also helps maintain an even ground temperature so plant roots don’t bake under the hot summer sun.

All of this means your plants will thrive with less effort and watering.

Compost, produced at the landfill site, is a rich organic matter important for healthy soil.

City residents’ leaf and yard waste is collected at the curbside and then composted at the landfill site.

Eighteen months later compost is ready to use. A chemical analysis is conducted to ensure it is safe for public use.

“Both of these materials are produced at the landfill site from leaf and yard waste that is collected at the curb and brought into the landfill throughout the year,” said Nicole Robertson, the city’s solid waste supervisor.

“By doing this, we are diverting waste and reusing the material for beautification purposes.”

The city’s landfill site is located at 2590

Cornwall Centre Road West.

Please note that a portion of Cornwall Centre Road is closed to traffic. Residents can access the landfill from Vincent Massey Drive or Power Dam Drive.

was played Saturday evening in Napanee against Ottawa’s SHD (grey). It was a fierce competition. Montroy was on fire scoring in the opening minute of play. The lead was soon erased when SHD scored once and scored again to go up by one. The Bolts were not phased and Zak Dixon scored in the second period on an assist from Jock and James Sullivan. Going into the third period, SHD was leading 3-2. SHD’s offensive unit was relentless and scored twice in the third period.

The Bolts were still in the hunt with LaFrance scoring in the third on an assist from Montroy and Montroy scoring the Bolts’s last goal on an assist from Ashby. The Bolts kept it close throughout the game, but time ran out before they could tie it. Despite great netminding from Tristen Shonniker, the final score was 5-4 for SHD. The Bolts scored enough points during the round robin of play to earn the right to advance Sunday for the elimination round.

At a tournament with ten teams, the Own the Ice Bolts finished fourth overall. After a late game Saturday, the Bolts had an early morning game against the Maplesoft Hawks (white) who finished first overall for the semi-final of the tournament. Despite a valiant effort, the Bolts fell to the Hawks 7-2. Earning goals for the Bolts were Montroy and Adams with assists going to Martin and Sunday. For the Beast of Kingston finals, the Hawks faced SHD with SHD winning 2-1.

Next, the Bolts faced the Major Novice Junior Bandits and skated away with a 6-3 win. The goals were coming fast and furious for the Bolts. Jonah Ashby got things started in the first period, quickly followed by Ethan Montroy (x3) from Rylan Adams, Ben Pilon, Ashby and Sunday. Jett Jock rounded out the scoring with a goal in the second and the third period. On Saturday, the Bolts faced the Rinkeye Elite. It was another close game, but the Bolts edged out the Rinkeye by one. The final score was 4-3 with Connor Fox earning the win between the pipes. The Bolts’ Carson Martin scored twice, Ashby and Montroy each notched one while assists went to Dixon and LaFrance.

The SWEATER Thom Racine Sports THOM_RACINE@HOTMAIL.COM

As the Bruins-Habs series was set to start, Annakin Slayd’s new video “Rock the Sweater” rapped out on cue.

Its a great little rap and the video is replete with historical memories, especially if you favour the blue blanc rouge.

Speaking of sweaters with historical significance, many of you know that I love to collect old things, my pucks and vintage cards number in the thousands.

I have a piece of every old original six stadium, infield dirt from Tiger stadium and my war history shelf includes sand from Juno Beach, chalk from Vimy Ridge and even a small piece of the Berlin Wall.

So, when someone asks me to help them find an old relic, I love the challenge, as if it was a cold case.

When I was given the opportunity to write this column in April of 2006, I made a promise to the late Bill Gallant, that I would

try to follow his theme of finding room for history vignettes.

I think Bill would have smiled when this column discovered John Broderick’s Gold Medal from 1906 or Aneaes McMillan’s Trophy from the first ever professional hockey League in 1905.

Bill would smile again this week, as this story revisit’s a time when Bill captured the memory of two Cornwall Royals Memorial Cup victories in his 1980 book, The Frozen Stage.

A few weeks back, long time friend Randy Martelle told me a story, a story about an old sweater, a sweater that he would like to see again.

When Bill Gallant posed for the back cover picture for his book, he reached out to a few friends, friends that could provide the sweater history of his beloved hockey team.

I often wondered who the jersey’s belonged too, I did learn that one of them was worn by the late Jim George, his number 16.

I did find out that the four sweaters were borrowed for the picture, one of them, the one on the left, the oldest one, belonged to

Randy’s dad, Ron. Ron Martelle played for the 1959-1960 Royals and gave his number 9 jersey to his friend Bill Gallant.

No one will ever know, if Ron gave the sweater to Bill or simply loaned it, but that old Royals sweater was never returned.

Time passed, both men died and the sweater is long gone, or is it? I asked Randy,

what he wanted, he simply wants to see it again, he remembers it as a boy, his dad kept it hanging in the closet. Sure, Randy would love to get it back, but just knowing it might be out there somewhere, is good enough for him.

When less is more - Part 1 Carol Ann Campbell Owner/LPGA “Class A” Teaching Professional at Archie’s Family Golf Centre

With spring finally upon us it’s a great time to review your goals for the upcoming golf season. One of the first questions I ask my students when they come for a lesson is “What is the number one thing you would like to improve in your golf game?” Nine times out of ten, the answer is consistency.

While nothing beats great instruction and dedicated practice time you can help yourself by keeping things as simple as possible. For many golfers the key to building a repeatable,

effective swing comes with less not more. So the next time you are on the range keep in mind that in golf often less is more.

Too many moves. If our goal is to be consistent – that is by my own definition – to build a reliable, repeatable swing motion that provides decent results – than it only makes sense that the least moving parts we have the easier it is going to be to coordinate them all together. I see so many swings where there is just way too much going on and unless you have an endless amount of time to perfect it, you will never develop the consistency you strive to gain.

In the simplest of terms, the golf swing is a turn behind the ball and a turn back to the ball through to your target. I really try to get my students to focus on making these moves with their big muscles – the strong ones – shoulders and hips.

Shoulders for the turn behind the ball, hips for the turn back to the ball and through to the target. This really helps to take the focus off the hands and arms (not to say a good grip and arm positioning/extension is not imperative to a good golf move) and produces the maximum amount of power with the least amount of effort.

CORNWALL, Ontario – A five-piece Cornwall band is making waves in Ottawa’s music scene with a live performance that makes going down the rabbit hole a lot more interesting.

Alison Wonderland, a local high-energy band, has been nominated for best live music act at the inaugural Ottawa Wedding Awards, which takes place on May 28.

Bandmates Alison Hudson, Andre Piette, Jason Gravely, Daryl McGillivray, and Clark Wereley were beaming with pride when they learned they’re the only finalists from outside of Ottawa.

“We are honoured to have been nominated,” said Hudson, co-lead singer. “If we are fortunate enough to be able to accept this award, we’ll be sure to let everyone know

Teacher Andrea DeCouer said both the performers and the audience will see some subtle differences between the live action musical and the late 1970s movie that made Grease famous.

“Some of the songs are a little different,” she said. “But the kids are really getting into it.”

There about 25 students that will hit the stage for the performance, which also includes a live pit band. Countless others are helping out behind the scenes.

After some notable success in the 90s, local rockers, Ritual, walked away from the band and each other, 10 years ago, following a performance at Lift-Off, opening up for Kim Mitchell.

Touring extensively together for over a decade had taken its toll on their relationships, and time had come for the members to branch off and do their own thing, explained Sean Harley, former Ritual front man. “It had run its course, and no one had any intention of ever revisiting it. We wanted to look forward, not back.”

Back in the day, the group gained critical acclaim worldwide for their music and live performances. Their EPs, I Give” and “Hate,” received extensive airplay and charted in such countries as the US, Russia, Japan, France, Indonesia, The Netherlands as well as in Canada.

Each of the band members, including Harley, who now fronts his very successful Trench Town Oddities; Jay Collis and Joel Labrosse, both members of The Shiners, and Daryl Kiviaho, went down their own musical path, but continued to be reminded, throughout the years, by their ample fan base, that Ritual was missed.

With much water under the bridge, and not coincidentally, marking their 20th anniversary, the guys are putting the proverbial band back together, for a very few select dates, next month, starting with local pub, Lola’s.

“When bands break up there are usually a number of personal issues, and now we’re all just happy to be playing music (together) again. This is just something that we love to do.”

Ritual will be live at Lola’s on Saturday, June 7. Tickets for the event are $20.00 and are now on sale at Lola’s Pub and Grub (616 Pitt St. Cornwall Ont.) Tickets are going fast, leaving the possibility for an encore performance.

Here’s what’s is playing in town, this month… On May 17, Winston Marley will be at Lola’s; on May 23, The Social presents The

Local artist celebrates first solo exhibit Roxanne Delage ROXANNEDELAGE@GMAIL.COM

CORNWALL, Ontario - It was the sea that inspired local, mixed-media artist, Marc Carrière, to take his skills to a level beyond expectations - his first solo exhibit, L’Emergence, at Galerie Corrid’art du Centre culturel de Cornwall.

An already-accomplished, stained glass artist and musician, Carrière, who had dabbled occasionally in painting, since high school, says that it was a vacation on the ocean, in New Brunswick, five years ago, that was the impetus for a series of seascapes, which seemed to pour out of him when he returned home.

“The effect of the sea was so strong on me,” he said. “It was the first time I had been to the ocean; that really inspired me. I created five or six in a row - fishermen, beach scenes, the landscape of New Brunswick.”

That strong calling was validated when he would later take third prize in a juried exhibition at The Art Gallery of Cornwall, for

one of those pieces, Roxanne’s Ladder.

“To me painting and stained glass are exquisite and magical. I was born to be an artist. I like to create pieces that bring the viewer into my world, if only for a moment.”

Prior to discovering his ability with paint, Carrière had been an accomplished stained glass artist.

“When I first learned stained glass, a friend taught me how to make a bird with three pieces, and when I saw the effect the light had on the piece, I was hooked. I saw the magic that the stained glass can create; the result of the work.”

Among Carrière’s stained glass pieces is a collection of music icons – Beatles and Janice Joplin - as well as his most-impressive, three dimensional guitars.

Carrière’s exhibit will be one of the last to be held at the gallery’s present location, the former Ecole Ste Croix, on Anthony, as the Pictured is mixed-media artist, Marc Carrière, at the vernissage for his exhibit on Saturday. leasing agreement with the school board is ending in June.

GO RAIDERS GO! CCVS Italian Night serves up school spirit CORNWALL, Ontario – A CCVS fundraiser with a taste of Italy returned, after being on hiatus for nearly a decade last Friday.

For the first time since 2005, the Cornwall high school hosted Italian Night.

Students helped prepare and serve meals to 325 hungry visitors. On the menu: a healthy-serving of fettucine, penne, spaghetti, salads, and desserts. Many in attandance were former teachers, principals and alumni.

The event, which also featured a silent auction, raised over $5,000.

“We were hoping to raise a fair amount of money for a new stage curtain and bursaries,” said Tammie Grant, CCVS Parent Teacher Council chair. “The council felt it was important to help the school by bringing back this fundraiser.”

Principal Trish Brown said council’s decision to revive the fundraising event was a great choice since CCVS is a school of tradition with 208 years of history.

“We’re trying to raise funds for our students, but that wasn’t our only goal,” said

Brown. “We wanted to create some fun, a family culture at the school, and enjoy a tour of Italy dinner with the community.”

Students Karolina Bramwell, Grade 10, and Destiny Perkins, Grade 9, were more than glad to volunteer as waitresses.

“It was an amazing feeling to work with the community,” said Bramwell. “We had to move fast, so it also provided a real look into the working world.”

CCVS has 875 students in Grades 7 to 12. “Once you’re a Raider, you’re always a Raider,” said Grant.

VOLUME 5, NUMÉRO 4 LE JEUDI 8 MAI 2014 37 411 EXEMPLAIRES

LA VOIX FRANCOPHONE DE CORNWALL ET DES 27 COMMUNAUTÉS LOCALES «Nos concurrents, ce sont les autres régions» Maxime Pedneaud-Jobin La mobilisation concertée se poursuit dans la région alors que les décideurs régionaux étaient réunis lundi après-midi pour rencontrer les cinq députés de la région.

Les représentants de l’éducation, du tourisme, de la santé, de l’emploi, de la politique et du développement régional avaient indiqué leur intention de continuer de travailler de pairs pour parler d’une voix forte et cette rencontre était une première étape.

Pour le maire de Gatineau, Maxime Pedneaud-Jobin, ce travail en équipe est nécessaire pour le développement de la région.

«Nos concurrents, ce n’est pas nous. Ce sont les autres régions», a-t-il lancé, rappelant que ce travail en équipe était nouveau pour l’Outaouais.

La rencontre de lundi aura permis de débroussailler les enjeux de la région en permettant à tout le monde de faire connaître leur point de vue, explique le maire de Gatineau. D’autres rencontres auront lieu dans les prochaines semaines pour parler plus spécifiquement des différents enjeux de l’Outaouais. Une rencontre avec le premier ministre pourrait s’ajouter.

L’éducation reste la priorité de l’Outaouais, affirme le Maxime Pedneaud-Jobin, puisque c’est à la base de tous les secteurs. Mais les actions à mettre en place ne sont pas encore à l’ordre du jour. «Le gouvernement doit prendre le temps de s’installer», a-t-il indiqué.

Pour les députés de l’Outaouais, cette concertation régionale donne une plus grande obligation de résultat, avoue le député de Chapleau, Marc Carrière. «Notre rôle à nous, c’est de porter le drapeau à Québec.»

Une course à minuit Marc-André Pelletier marc-andre.pelletier@tc.tc

Trois-Rivières accueillera le 24 mai prochain 3 450 jeunes de niveaux secondaire, collégial et universitaire qui auront alors complété la première étape d’un périple de 270 km dans le cadre du Grand défi Pierre Lavoie. La population est appelée à participer à une course de 10 km non chronométrée dont le départ sera donné sur le coup de minuit dans la nuit de samedi à dimanche.

Pierre Lavoie s’adresse à des coureurs.(Photo, TC Media / Marc-André Pelletier) Les participants inscrits prendront le départ sur le boulevard des Forges à la hauteur de l’UQTR jusqu’au Parc portuaire. Ils emprunteront par la suite les rues de l’Hôpital, des Ursulines et des Casernes pour bifurquer vers la rue Bonaventure jusqu’à la rue Laflèche et finalement atteindre le boulevard des Forges en direction nord.

Pour l’occasion, l’axe routier des Forges sera complètement fermé de 23 h 30 à 3 h. Une douzaine de policiers et une cinquantaine de bénévoles assureront la

sécurité sur le parcours.

La Course de nuit, c’est un aussi un événement festif : le groupe Les Trois Accords offrira une prestation sur une scène extérieure à l’UQTR qui permettra aux jeunes de recharger les batteries afin de reprendre la dernière étape de 135 km qui les mènera vers Québec.

Les coureurs intéressés à relever le défi Course de nuit peuvent s’inscrire sur le site Internet www.legdpl.com. Les informations se retrouvent aussi sur le site Internet de la Ville au www.v3r.net.

Pour la sixième année de suite, le réseau d’aqueduc de la ville de Cornwall obtient une évaluation parfaite lors de l’inspection faite par le ministère de l’Environnement de l’Ontario.

La ville de Cornwall a reçu une note de 100 pour cent dans le rapport d’inspection de 2013-2014 de son réseau d’aqueduc à la suite d’une inspection approfondie faite le 14 janvier du réseau d’aqueduc de la ville.

L’inspection faite par le ministère de l’Environnement a porté sur une vaste gamme de secteurs, comme les méthodes de traitement, la formation et la certification, la supervision de la qualité de l’eau et les mécanismes de préparation des rapports. « Nous supervisons constamment la qualité de notre eau potable pour nous assurer que les résidents et les entreprises ont accès à une source sûre d’eau », de déclarer Owen O’Keefe, le superviseur de l’usine de traitement de l’eau.

Le réseau d’aqueduc de Cornwall comprend l’usine de traitement de l’eau située sur le secteur ouest de la rue Second, une station auxiliaire de relais, un château d’eau surélevé et 277 kilomètres de conduites principales couvrant toute la ville. « Nous sommes particulièrement fiers de savoir que notre réseau d’aqueduc a eu une inspection parfait pour six années de suite », d’ajouter Shawn O’Brien, le superviseur de la distribution d’eau et de la collecte des eaux usées.

Plus de 12 millions de mètres cubes d’eau traitée ont été produits en 2013 et plus de 700 échantillons d’eau ont été analysés à intervalles réguliers au cours de l’année.

Conformément à la Loi sur le contrôle de la qualité de l’eau potable, la ville de Cornwall doit publier un rapport annuel sur son réseau d’aqueduc. Une copie du rapport est présentée au site www.Cornwall.ca.

de l’Est ontarien est le plus grand réseau d’écoles de langue française dans les cinq comtés de Stormont, Dundas, Glengarry, Prescott et Russell, et assure l’éducation à plus de 10 000 élèves, répartis dans 25 écoles élémentaires et 8 écoles secondaires. Nos élèves acquièrent des valeurs catholiques, une excellente maîtrise du français et de l’anglais, menant à un bilinguisme de haut niveau qui permet à nos jeunes diplômés de faire carrière dans les deux langues officielles du Canada.

Ta PLACE est ici Séjour exploratoire 2014 rurales! Au total, 9 participants ont eu la possibilité de participer à notre 4e édition du séjour exploratoire, les 21, 22 et 23 mars derniers !

Une fin de semaine, remplie d’activités constructives, a permis aux jeunes professionnels participants de passer une fin de semaine agréable dans nos régions de SDG-Cornwall et PrescottRussell. À l’aide d’activités telles que le Brunch-parrainage – Desjardins et le 5 à 7

Leadership chrétien franco-ontarien : 75 000 élèves s’uniront en prière Les 6 et 7 mai, plus d’une centaine d’élèves du palier secondaire provenant des huit conseils scolaires catholiques de langue française en Ontario, convergeront vers Toronto pour prendre part à un important Symposium, leur permettant d’affirmer haut et fort leur foi catholique et de développer leur leadership chrétien.

Organisé par le Comité d’orientation de l’éducation catholique de langue française (COREC), sous le thème « Vous serez mes témoins », ce rassemblement catholique à grand déploiement permettra aux élèves de s’unir pour célébrer l’importance de la foi catholique au sein de leur vie et de se dresser des pistes d’action en tant que leaders. Cette conférence se clôturera en grand, par la célébration d’une messe spéciale présidée par son Éminence le cardinal Thomas Collins pour célébrer la Semaine de l’éducation catholique. Cette messe se tiendra à l’église de la Paroisse du Sacré-Cœur de Toronto, point d’ancrage significatif pour la communauté chrétienne francophone de la région.

Le Conseil scolaire de district catholique de l’Est ontarien (CSDCEO) est heureux d’annoncer qu’il sera représenté à ce Symposium par la délégation de 13 élèves provenant des écoles suivantes : École secondaire catholique La Citadelle de Cornwall, École secondaire catholique L’Escale de Rockland, École secondaire catholique de Plantagenet et École secondaire catholique régionale de Hawkesbury .

Alors que cette grande messe sera célébrée à Toronto le 7 mai, toutes les écoles catholiques de langue française de l’Ontario célébreront également une messe ou une liturgie de la Parole le même jour. C’est donc plus de 75 000 élèves à travers la province qui se réuniront par la prière, afin de vivre collectivement leur foi catholique, au sein d’une communauté scolaire guidée par les

valeurs chrétiennes de respect, de partage et d’entraide. Nous invitons les membres de la communauté à communiquer avec l’école catholique de langue française de leur localité pour connaître les activités qui s’y dérouleront. « En participant à ces événements, les élèves du CSDCEO auront l’occasion de s’unir à d’autres jeunes catholiques francoontariens qui partagent les mêmes valeurs qu’eux, pour ainsi cheminer ensemble dans leur foi catholique, en français. Voilà un geste de solidarité puissant, qui continuera à nourrir la fierté que ressentent les élèves envers leur foi et leur langue. », d’affirmer M. François Turpin, directeur de l’éducation et secrétaire.

Le Comité d’orientation de l’éducation catholique (COREC) est un point de concertation des organismes dédiés à l’avancement de l’éducation catholique de langue française en Ontario. Il rassemble les membres du Conseil ontarien des directions de l’éducation catholique (CODEC), de l’Office provincial de l’éducation catholique en Ontario (OPÉCO), de l’Association franco-ontarienne des conseils scolaires catholiques (AFOCSC) et de l’Assemblée des évêques catholiques de l’Ontario (AECO).

Découvertes – Desjardins, les participants ont eu l’occasion de discuter avec des employeurs, des entrepreneurs et acteurs clés dans leur domaine d’études.

Nos jeunes professionnels proviennent des domaines d’études suivants : enseignement, comptabilité, finances, gestion de projets, droit, counseling, services sociaux, économie internationale et dessin technique. Nous leur souhaitons une recherche d’emploi fructueuse et un

établissement réussi dans nos collectivités ! Vous avez des occasions d’emploi dans ces domaines? Communiquez avec nous au info@rdee-ont.ca pour plus d’information.

Finalement, nous aimerions vivement remercier tous les partenaires de Place aux jeunes qui ont, pour une autre année, contribué à améliorer l’intégration des jeunes professionnels dans PrescottRussell, SDG et Cornwall.

La journée de la terre à Rose des Vents a donné plusieurs défis à relever afin de sauver la Terre comme économiser l’eau et l’électricité et ramasser des déchets dans la cour d’école. À la fin de la semaine, une pastille de fibres de coco a été remise à chaque élève ainsi que des semences de plantes qui attirent les pollinisateurs (papillons, colibris, abeilles). Le geste de planter nous rappelle notre lien et notre rôle dans le cycle de la vie.

C’était notre activité préférée!

Qu’avez-vous fait pour aider la Terre?

Durant la semaine du 22 avril, les élèves de l’école Rose des Vents ont participé à des activités pour souligner les journées de la Terre.

Le mardi, les élèves se sont habillés en bleu et vert, les couleurs de la Terre.

HOROSCOPES - MAY 8 TO MAY 14 ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20: You are in a position of power this week, Aries.

But this doesn’t mean you can impose your will onto someone else. Don’t try to take over any situation.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21: Taurus, someone might dredge up uncomfortable feelings, but you need to muddle through with a smile on your face. This is the case at home and at work.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21: Gemini, separate your personal and professional lives, particulary with regard to potentially contentious issues. You may want to keep mum for a while.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22: Cancer, make your feelings known when something upsets you this week.

Sharing these feelings will benefit you and your friends and colleagues now and in the future.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23: Leo, your feelings of restlessness this week can benefit from a creative outlet. Engage in an activity that keeps your hands and your mind busy, such as a craft or a home project.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22: Virgo, minimize any negative energy this week. Strive to be a source of optimism when others are looking at the glass as half empty. It can work wonders.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23: Libra, after several days of working entirely off of adrenaline, you finally have some time to kick back and relax. This will help you recharge your internal battery.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22: Your motivation is very strong this week, Scorpio. You can accomplish much more than you ever expected in a short period of time. Pick your projects wisely.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21: Sagittarius, you are unable to convey some feelings to others, but your body language will go a long way toward getting your message across. Remain conscious of your actions.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20: One of your goals this week is to propel yourself further without pushing others too hard, Capricorn. You want to be successful but not at the expense of others.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18: Aquarius, focus on practical matters, such as your career goals, for the time being. Crucial decisions must be made and new relationships must be fostered.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20: Pisces, trust your gut instincts on an issue that has been puzzling you this week. Your intuition might be your best asset.

School bus danger exists, say police CORNWALL, Ontario - City police said more drivers are failing to stop for school buses, creating a dangerous situation where children could be in danger of being struck by a vehicle.

The service put out a reminder to motorists Tuesday, warning that a zero-tolerance policy exists for those who fail to stop, or otherwise

ignore the rules concerning school buses.

“There has been an increase in school bus violations recently,” police said in a media release. “Police are reminding motorists to pay attention and be patient. When you see a school bus, watch for the flashing lights, come to a full stop.”

Const. Sherri Cameron said the reason

for the increase in violations is likely related to a jump in the number of people reporting them to police, among other things.

“Everybody is in a hurry,” she said. “And they probably have 100 things on their mind...in general that is our lifestyle.”

She said police are handing out tickets where possible.

PLACE YOUR AD AND YOU COULD WIN A

Failing to stop for a school bus will cost a motorist $490 and six demerit points will be added to their license.

“It’s huge because of the dangers involved...especially because we’re talking about school buses and children,” she said. “We want drivers to be observant and patient.”

As he headed into the bathroom, I told my four-year-old son, Tommy, to wait until there was pee in his potty before coming back out. Minutes later he emerged triumphantly singing, “All done.” Preparing to clean up, I had to laugh. He’d grabbed the letter P from his bath toys and dropped it in the bowl.

Did you know that the Monarch Butterfly, this seemingly delicate vibrant orange, black and white coloured little creature inspires awe due to its phenomenal migration, in which it travels up to 4,800 kilometres to reach overwintering sites in Mexico and along the California coast.

A striking success: The Olympia Bowl bantam girls team won silver at the Youth Bowling Council national championships in Winnipeg.

Recycling – don’t let it end up in the landfill … Resell, pass on or donate items your household no longer uses. Use a canvas bag when shopping. Purchase longer-lasting quality products for your everyday use. Purchase a compost bin for kitchen and garden waste such as plant trimmings, leaves, vegetable cuttings, eggshells, shredded paper and tea bags, etc.

The Alexandria & District Chamber of Commerce knows all the tricks of the trade show. This year’s event is already being called the best one yet!

Tips for Creating a Monarch Habitat ~ Choose a sheltered, sunny spot. Provide a diversity of nectar sources, the best are native flowers, to ensure bloom from late spring through summer and into fall so that monarchs always have food nearby. Avoid the use of pesticides and herbicides. Add a water source such as a shallow pan or birdbath with a few stones as landing spots or an area of wet sand or mud. This species is currently listed as “at-risk” and could use your help. You could help them with their recovery by creating a butterfly-friendly habitat in your backyard or in a community garden.

Pet Tip of the Week: With spring in the air, our little feathered friends are very busy getting their nests ready for the new family.

If you are placing feeders in your yard, make sure that you place them a minimum of 50 feet away from the windows. Let’s help them avoid flying into the windows by either keeping the drapes closed during the day, hanging a few sun catchers or placing decals on the windows.

If you’re looking to jazz up your fundraising event, add Zumba.

Don’t forget to pick up a gift for mom!

Mother’s Day is on Sunday, May 11.

Quote of the Week: The remarkable thing about my mother is that for thirty years she served us nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found. Calvin Trillin.

The different seasons in Penn Dutch Country are so interesting. By the end of May and first week of June, the crops are in, gardens are up and trees and shrubs are flowering abundantly.

Whenever you choose to visit, you will find it is like visiting another country. It is a place where your car slows to a trot behind a horse-drawn Amish buggy and where life moves in harmony with the seasons.

After closing time at the bar, a drunk was proudly showing off his new apartment to a couple of his friends. He led the way to his bedroom where there was a big brass gong and a mallet.

“What’s up with the big brass gong?” one of his guests asked.

“It’s not a gong. It’s a talking clock,” the drunk replied.

“A talking clock? Seriously?” asked his astonished friend.

“Yup,” replied the drunk.

“How’s it work?” the friend asked, squinting at it.

“Watch,” the drunk replied.

He picked up the mallet, gave the gong an ear-shattering pound and stepped back.

The three stood looking at one another for a moment.

Suddenly a voice on the other side of the wall screamed...

“You Idiot! It’s three-fifteen in the morning!”

IS IT ENOUGH JUST TO FOLLOW ORDERS? Nick Wolochatiuk Dances with Words NUTHILLTOO@GMAIL.COM

About a week after I had misplaced my zipper attaché case containing my agenda (‘LBB’ = ‘Little Black Book’), a young woman called to say that it had been found, and could be picked up at the store where I’d left it. When I went to claim it, I asked the staffer how long they had had it. “Oh, I noticed it at least five days ago.” When I followed up with, “Weren’t you curious? Didn’t you think something should have been done with it?”

“Uh, no. I’ll inform our department manager so he can call you to explain.”

He did phone. He stated company policy: “If something is left behind by a customer, such as a wallet, purse or brief case, it is not to be

The

opened, due to privacy and liability concerns.

After a period of about five days, if it has not been claimed, it and the contents are to be shredded.”

I was astounded and stunned into silence at this statement. That made no sense to me.

Minutes later, I finally found sufficient words to express my angry thoughts, so I dialed the store to talk to the manager. “Does that policy make any sense to you?” “No, I just followed orders.” Fortunately, my words of rebuttal came instantly: ‘“I just followed orders.’ Aren’t those the words all sorts of Nazi concentration camp executioners, SS officers and Gestapo members used to excuse their criminal behaviours during post-WW II trials?”

The manager made an attempt to apologize for my inconvenience. However, I was on a roll.

My next question was, “If your employees are expected to adhere to corporate policy, how come one of them opened the case, then used

my phone number to contact me?”

There was a long and awkward silence at the other end of the line. He was in a Catch22 situation. The horns of his dilemma were obviously causing him considerable pain. I think this situation could become the basis of a Monty Python comedy skit, or sold to the CBC for use in their ‘This is That’ program.

“Please come into our store so we can refund the cost you incurred when you needlessly purchased a replacement agenda.

The quality of mercy was not to be strained.

I had made my point. Like a guard dog that has sufficiently savaged the trouser leg of an intruder, I let go.

There are times when routines must be changed, orders must be disobeyed and initiative must be exercised. To do so requires courage and willingness to make a sacrifice.

A shill such as “This is the way we’ve always done it” does not pave the way to success in

MAY

leadership, honour in service, success in sports, business or science.

A young woman I know had a supervisory position at an aircraft modification centre in the USA. She was given a set of plans to follow to make a retrofit modification to a series of helicopters. After studying them carefully, she informed her immediate supervisor, “I cannot sign off this work. It is not right.”

“Unless you do, it could cost your job.” She stood her ground, politely but firmly. She did not back down. The head of the company was informed of her decision. He made a thorough investigation of the plans and her refusal to sign them off. Net result: the plans were revised; she was complimented for her thoroughness and courage; a potentially dangerous procedure was eliminated.

I hope that some time in your life you have the experience of doing the right thing instead of just following orders.

IS ON!
