Christmas meals for students Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

The students at Immaculate Conception are treated to a Christmas meal every year by the teachers and staff.

For the past four years, John Baxtrom and Baxtrom’s Independent Grocers has provided some of the supplies to make the meal happen, however, John Baxtrom says that none of this would really be possible without the dedication of the school’s staff.

“All of the heroes are the people in this room who are serving and preparing this meal,” Baxtrom said, referring to the staff and volunteers who were slaving away over a hot stove to prepare the meal for the 175 students at Immaculate Conception.

On the menu was of course, turkey, cranberry sauce, bread, butter, potatoes, gravy and cupcakes for dessert made by John Baxtrom’s wife.

YEAR IN REVIEW A message from your MPP Life continues to get more expensive under the Wynne Liberals.

The Wynne Liberals continue to be dogged by stories of waste, scandal, and police investigation. The year started with media articles revealing a highly honed “Cash for Access” scheme with $500,000 minister‘s fundraising quotas, denied ministerial meeting requests being countered with $10,000 dinner tickets, and examples of generous donators being rewarded with large government contracts.

The results are staggering; up to the end of 2016, the Wynne Liberals had raised enough money to finance two general election campaigns.

While the Liberal government has been filling its coffers, the people of Ontario have been hit with service cuts and fee and tax increases that are making life unaffordable. Their plans include up to 600 school closures, and the Auditor-General reports hospital bed closures, long wait times, and electricity rates that are four times what they were in 2003. But it gets worse, as their Cap-and-Trade scheme received failing grades from the Auditor as well. Only 20% of the government’s planned emission cuts will occur in Ontario, with California receiving billions of dollars for paper carbon credits generated by their emission reductions. She reports that the cost of electricity will increase a further 23% by 2020. Does the government truly believe these exorbitant costs won’t shock our agriculture, manufacturing, and services sectors?

During the past year, I continued to work at Queen’s Park during the week and to commute to our riding on the weekends. It has been my pleasure to attend events throughout SDSG

Cornwall On behalf of my colleagues on City Council, I would like to wish all residents a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

The year 2016 has seen many positive changes, both throughout the community and at City Hall.

The signs of progress are apparent in every part of the City, from the redevelopment of the cotton mills district and commercial growth on Brookdale Avenue to new housing starts in the north end and reinvestments by companies in the Cornwall Business Park.

The City of Cornwall has been part of this progress with some significant achievements of its own. A new Strategic Plan was adopted to guide Council and Administration in the years to come. It outlines a series of action items broken down into four key areas – Quality of Life, Economic & Financial, Environment and Governance & Administration. In addition to this key document, Council also adopted a new Code of Conduct for elected officials.

We continue to make important investments in our traffic network. This includes investments in two key infrastructure projects - the redevelopment and widening of Marleau Avenue and Ninth Street and partnering with the Federal Bridge Corporation Ltd. on the redevelopment of Brookdale Avenue. We have also invested in recreational projects such as the

A message from your MP Friends, As 2016 comes to an end, we look back on some trying times, but also on moments of great hope and joy. Our country mourned as we saw the devastation of the wild fires that ravaged Fort McMurray and left thousands homeless.

From that tragedy we were reminded of many of the greatest qualities of the Canadian people; generosity, selflessness and perseverance.

We see those qualities daily right here at home throughout Cornwall and the Eastern Counties. We see thousands of volunteers who give their time to hundreds of charitable and not-for-profit agencies throughout our communities. We see firsthand the hard and often dangerous work done by our police services, fire departments and first responders. We are blessed to be surrounded by hundreds of small businesses that provide excellent services and create jobs for today and tomorrow.

I am honoured and humbled to be the federal representative for our community and I give my all to make sure your voices, and our concerns are heard and addressed. My constituency staff offers assistance to tens of thousands of residents yearly. It is our privilege to serve you and we will continue to work hard for you.

As we look forward to the New Year, we are

such as volunteer appreciation dinners, varied fundraisers, anniversary celebrations, and more, and I am happy to support constituents and in their efforts to promote the good causes that arise for so many reasons. When I travel throughout the riding, I also have the opportunity to listen to the concerns of our citizens about the issues that are important to the health of our communities. Be assured that I take your concerns seriously, and that my staff and I will continue to do our best to assist you in any way that we can.

Finally, I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and the very best in 2017.

North Dundas

North Glengarry

Council is very proud of North Dundas’ success in 2016, and without a doubt, we are optimistic about what 2017 has in store.

North Dundas’ population is growing. We had $20 million in new development in 2016.

The employment rate is solid, and new jobs have been created. Our retail sector has never been stronger with more stores opening and expanding, and businesses working together to promote our area.

Our main private sector employer, Parmalat, has invested $3 million in expansions this year, with more growth planned. The former Nestle plant in Chesterville, that had been abandoned and declining for years, is revitalized and buzzing with activity again.

In 2016, the North Dundas Community Improvement Program, that provides grants and loans to renovate business facades and interiors, has partnered with businesses and resulted in over $250,000 in upgrades to beautify our downtown cores and commercial businesses. We anticipate continued success with this program in 2017.

Rural Ontario faces many challenges. We’re proud of the way North Dundas Council, staff,

The Township of North Glengarry had a busy and productive 2016.

Over the year we have constructed approximately 2 km of sidewalks in Alexandria, Glen Robertson and Dalkeith. Considerable construction was done by our Public Works department including paving, four bridges and several culverts and guard rails were installed throughout the township.

The Township’s Community Improvement Plan has been a resounding success with property owners Alexandria taking up the opportunity to rejuvenate storefronts and preserve heritage facades on Main Streets in both Alexandria and Maxville. We expect that success to continue and have done what we can by building a new courtesy crosswalk on city rd 34 and Mill Square in Alexandria.

A great deal of activity took place in Island Park. A mechanical weed harvester cutter was purchased to control the weeds in Mill Pond with great success. The splash pad was upgraded with new features and a new stamped concrete walkway was installed to improve accessibility to the beach.

The Township continues to work diligently to bring safe reliable drinking water to the village of Maxville and to improve the sewer system in Alexandria. Both are vital infrastructure projects we will continue to focus on in 2017 to preserve and expand economic base.

The prospect of the closure of several of our

South Dundas

schools has brought the community together. It is hoped their efforts will bear fruit have an impact when the Upper Canada District School Board reviews options in the spring of 2017.

I am extremely pleased with the dedication of our staff and Council, they keep things running smoothly.

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and peace and prosperity for the year 2017.

Chris McDonell, Mayor, North Glengarry

South Dundas Council and staff are very proud of achieving many goals and accomplishments in 2016. Our focus on expanding communications and outreach into the community was supported by hosting our first annual Council community breakfast; an open forum session; Small Business Week sponsorship; reconnecting partnerships; and continued expansion and use of our website; social media and the 360 Guide. We participated in a First Impressions Community Exchange program with the Town of Gananoque and gathered valuable information with respect to tourism and the business community. New signage was installed on Highway 401; and at hamlets and facilities throughout the municipality.

Several businesses expanded or opened throughout the year; including the Upper Canada Creamery yogourt facility; Homestead Organics factory outlet store; Quesada food outlet; Morrisburg Self Storage; Royal LePage real estate office; Cardinal Flowers & Gifts Gallery; Operating Engineers Training Institute of Ontario (OETIO) dorm addition and renovations; large agricultural farm building expansions; and relocation of Eckel Industries to a larger facility. Construction value totalled approximately $20 million over the year; primarily in residential and agricultural builds and expansions. The Campbell Street industrial road project was completed with the installation of water; sewer and hydro services. Three properties have been sold and the balance is available for future development. Two major announcements in the Fall included the Swank Construction Dutch Meadows 200-home residential development east of Morrisburg and the expansion to Ross Video in Iroquois with expectations of approximately 80 new jobs to the facility.

South Dundas is fortunate to have many

service clubs and the business community work together to address them. We have many good things happening in our community, and we’re looking forward to an even better 2017.

Cornwall Nationals gain new investor

A World’s First In Hearing Aids

CORNWALL, Ontario - While the expansion Cornwall Nationals have had a respectful start to their first season, it’s been a critical week for the Federal Hockey League team off the ice.

The Nationals are proud to announce that a new local investor, Will Beauvais, has stepped up to partner with the team.

“Will has such a huge passion for sports and we’re so excited to have him on board with us,” said Rodney Rivette, owner and president of the Nationals. “It’s business as usual for the Cornwall Nationals right now; we’re moving forward full steam ahead.”

Meanwhile, part owner and general manager Mitch Gagne is no longer with the organization.

Rivette has bought Gagne’s share of the team.

“Mitch had a major role in bringing semi-pro hockey back to Cornwall and we are grateful for all of his efforts,” said Rivette.

Basem Awwad, who has suited up for the Nationals in 12 games this season, will take over the general manager duties. The 37-year-old

from Orleans has been involved in the FHL since 2011.

“Basem is quite familiar with the FHL and its nuances,” said Rivette.

As for head coach Al Quenneville, he will be back behind the bench on Friday, Dec. 23 when the Nationals head to Watertown to take on the Wolves. Quenneville was unavailable for last weekend’s two contests.

“With Al and Basem, and veterans such as Joel Trottier, we believe we have the best leaders possible to keep this thing heading in the right direction,” said Rivette.

Cornwall (6-8-3-1) currently sits fourth in the FHL standings with 25 points in 18 games.

In other news, rugged defenceman Kris McCarthy, currently sidelined with a broken finger, will be assisting the Nationals as the Sales & Marketing Director.

“With his background in sales and marketing, Kris is the perfect guy to help us get our name out there in the community and work on a better in-game experience for our fans,” said Rivette.

The Nationals are back on home ice Thursday, Dec. 29 when the St. Clair Shores Fighting Saints visit the Civic Complex. Game time is 7:30 p.m.

Tickets are $13 for adults, $10 for seniors/students and $5 for children under the age of 12.

Major upgrade to fuel system at Cornwall Regional Airport SUMMMERSTOWN, Ontario - Cornwall Regional Airport is about to become a more popular landing choice for pilots.

The Airport Commission has completed a major upgrade to its fuel system and can now offer Jet A fuel as well as 100LL avgas, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

“The sale of fuel is an important service and the new upgrades will mean that even more pilots can choose to fuel up at our airport,” says Frank Prevost, Chair of the Airport Commission.

“The proceeds from fuel sales help to pay for the operation and maintenance of the

airport.”

Jet A fuel is available for the first time following the installation of a 3500 gallon tank and fuel pump. A new chip and pin upgrade to the payment system means that pilots can fuel up at any time of the day or night.

Jet fuel is a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. Avgas is used in spark-ignited engines common to many light aircraft.

The airport had been receiving requests for jet fuel for some time, sparking the decision to invest in the system upgrades, which cost

approximately $140,000.

“The airport is used by a number of recreational, corporate and government users that includes law enforcement and medical flights,” says Steve Small, Airport Manager. “The new fuel system will allow more planes to fuel up and we will be spreading that word to our customers.”

Earlier this year, Ottawa Aviation Services began operating flight training operations out of the Cornwall Regional Airport.

Cornwall Aviation is also based at the airport.

Please be advised that Christmas trees will be collected by the Township of South Glengarry for a 3 week period, beginning January 3rd until January 24th.

Please place your Christmas tree at the roadside with all decorations removed.

OPINION

Resolute on resolutions Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

New Year’s Resolutions have always seem rather arbitrary to me. Why make promises to yourself that you don’t intend to keep just at New Year’s when you can do that all year-round?

I remember three years ago when I first promised myself that I would start going to the gym, and I also remember the summer of 2015 when I finally followed through on that. Since then I have promised myself that I will go back to the gym several times. Sometimes I go, sometimes I don’t. The last time I went to the gym I kept up a regular schedule for two-months, after which I decided that I had earned myself a well-deserved break . . . that was in July.

I have a feeling that if I only made commitments to self-improve at the start of the New Year that I would never follow through on anything. In fact, I find the whole process of making New Year’s Resolutions just to be another task to

put under my to-do list. With all the rush to buy Christmas presents, write cards, plan end of the year and Christmas parties, now I have to remember to reflect on my entire year and plan for the next one too? Yes, it is good to reflect on your recent past and use that as a basis to plan for the future, but wouldn’t it be better to take stock of your actions all the time rather than just once a year. New Year’s Day must be a procrastinator’s dream! “Hurray, now I have a full 365 days before I have to think about making decisions to improve myself again.”

If you want to quit smoking, why not start right now? If you want to eat better, why not now? In fact, the only New Year’s Resolution that does make sense is to go to the gym. A lot of people go to the gym to get ready for beach weather in the summer and if you start going to the gym on January 1st, you won’t see drastic results until about July.

The best New Year’s Resolution that you can make is to promise to make resolutions all year-long.

My New Year’s resolution Nick Wolochatiuk ~ Dances With Words This is the traditional time of year for otherwise intelligent people to amass a raft of noble resolutions. As I look around my world, I see an abundance of issues and causes worthy of being attended to, guided by carefully thought out directives.

If the following directives are adopted as resolutions by the people I am about to specify, and are followed by them, what a wonderful world we would have!

Here’s my list. It’s not in ascending nor descending order of priority, nor is it prioritized by degree of urgency. It’s in alphabetical order of the people who should abide by these resolutions.

DOGS – Since you don’t have opposable thumbs, train your owner to use a doggy bag every time you do a doo-doo drop.

FANATICS - Be more tolerant of others’ beliefs. “What this world needs is more tolerant fanatics.” I don’t mind fanatics – as long as they are tolerant.

GULLIBLES – Just because you saw it on The Web, or heard on some wee small hours

TOURISTS – When you travel in Third World countries, budget some money for generosity toward street performers you stop to gaze at and enjoy: the guy with a dog that has been trained to do tricks; the street musicians who entertain you with their indigenous melodies; the sidewalk chalk artists that you gaze at, then photograph, with admiration for their work;

LEFT-TURNERS – Proceed into the middle of the intersection when waiting for a break in oncoming traffic to allow you to make a left hand turn. That will allow the car behind you to also make a left turn behind you.

PRESENTERS – When using PowerPoint, don’t just project a page of tiny text onto the screen, then read it to your audience. We can read, but not lettering so tiny that even the Hubble couldn’t enlarge it enough to be legible.

SHOPPERS – Shopping carts are not like spawning salmon, boomerangs or homing pigeons: they do not have a homing instinct to take them from the plaza parking lot to where they were picked up.

Besides, your hulking pickup truck’s high beams are blinding me.

OPINION

with attempted murder. Months later he would be convicted of a lesser charge and given a few months in jail. However, the Crown appealed.

The sentenced was lengthened to two years.

Ironically, the shooter was spared harm because neither officer had his revolver unholstered, thus unable to return fire.

For McGillis, his days of front-line police work were over. On return to duty he was made court officer and helped out in dispatch.

A son, Randy, followed in his father’s footsteps. He became a member of the Ontario Provincial Police.

It was the first shooting of a city police officer since 1927 when Const. William Caul was shot in the face while attempting to arrest a man who was trying to steal a car. Caul survived. He died in 1951 after retiring from the force.

The only Cornwall police officer killed on duty was John Robert Davey shot to death by a drifter he was attempting to arrest on Sept. 6, 1892. It was Davey’s first day on the job. He was 47. He left a wife and three children. The man responsible for his shooting was convicted of murder and hanged in the county jail courtyard.

TRIVIA ANSWER Queen Elizabeth’s coronation took place on June 2, 1953.

TRIVIA May 4, 1967 was a special day in Toronto with a parade and civic celebration at Nathan Phillips Square. There hasn’t been one to match the event since in Toronto. What was the event?

HERE AND THERE Nice touch type of story out of Massena Central High School where the

cheerleading team made a student’s dream come true. Keslie Miller, born with Down syndrome, always wanted to be a cheerleader.

When the coach and team members were approached by a special education teacher about the idea of Keslie joining the squad, they welcomed her with open arms. “The girls welcomed her and treated her like a cheerleader,” special ed teacher Roxanne Howard told the Watertown Times. She said being accepted as a cheerleader has given Keslie and newfound sense of connection with her peers.

THIS AND THAT With Chief Dan Parkinson away for five weeks (vacation), Deputy Chief Danny Aikman has taken on the role of acting chief. ... Something overlooked by the Black Lives Matter movement and the anti-police crowd is the fact that a record number of U.S. law enforcement officers have been killed in the line of duty this year. Hundreds have been wounded.

The most dangerous state for police officers is Georgia. Of the 64 police killings in the U.S. up to the end of November, eight were in Georgia.

Two weeks ago eight Georgia police officers were shot in a six-day stretch, two of them killed.

AROUND AND ABOUT Good for Walmart for bucking political correctness and allowing its employees to wish customers a Merry Christmas. ... Somebody has calculated that based on 1000 kw usage the average monthly Ontario hydro bill (Hydro One) is $226.03. For the same usage in Quebec, the average monthly bill is $67.89. In British Columbia, it is $89.12. In Manitoba it is $81.09. It is even cheaper in Boston where McFiber fled to after leaving the premier’s office.

www.cornwallseawaynews - Seaway News - Thursday, December 29, 2016 - 11

The overnight shift was a few hours into what was turning out to be a quiet Christmas Eve with a few routine calls.

By 2 a.m. officers were looking forward to spending Christmas Day with their families.

Such was the case shortly after midnight Dec. 25, 1962.

But that was about to change with a single telephone call to the dispatcher.

Two Cornwall police officers were dispatched to an Augustus Street home after the station received a call from a female inside the house, where a party had been under way for several hours, requesting police assistance. She told the dispatcher a man had locked himself in a bedroom ... and that he had a gun, which might be loaded. She was afraid he was going to harm himself.

Const. Ford McGillis, 27, a five-year veteran, and his supervisor, patrol sergeant Albert Seguin, soon arrived at the home.

Seguin attempted to gain entry through the front door but it was barricaded. McGillis decided to make his way to the back door. He found it unlocked and entered, quickly opening the front door for Seguin.

The two officers were directed to a main floor bedroom. They knocked on the locked on bedroom door and tried to talk to the person inside.

There was no answer.

Suddenly, the door swung open. The two officers found themselves confronted by a man

with a shotgun pointed at them. Without warning the man fired the 12-gauge shotgun at point blank range. The officers had no chance of ducking out of the way. The pellets struck McGillis in the chest. He fell in a heap, blood steaming from an ugly chest wound.

The white sheet covering him quickly saturated with blood as he was taken from the house on a stretcher to the waiting Cornwall Exclusive Ambulance vehicle. There were no paramedics in 1962, just ambulance attendants with, at best, basic medical training. Their job was to get a patient to the hospital as quickly as possible.

Five local doctors, all specialists, arrived at the hospital within half an hour of the call going out.

The fight to save Ford McGillis’s life was under way.

Ironically, one of the doctors, a lung specialist, years later would be convicted in the shooting death of his estranged wife.

The pellets that ripped into McGillis’s chest damaged a lung and bruised his heart. It was as close to death as he could have come. If not for his police shield affixed on the left side of his tunic, his heart would have received a fatal blow.

Thanks to the medical talent in the operating room and the officer’s strong physical condition, the father of a young son made a slow but steady recovery over the next two weeks. His wife was expecting with their second child in March.

A 21-year-old man, an Ontario Hydro worker with no previous brushes with the law, was taken into custody at the scene and charged

School leaps into math with enthusiasm Nick Seebruch nicholas.seebruch@tc.tc

6891754

CORNWALL, Ontario - St. Columban’s West Catholic Elementary School has started its new math strategy, which it launched on Tuesday, Dec. 20. The new strategy is designed to promote new interest in math in students and open new avenues for teaching.

The strategy is a part of a province wide initiative to improve math skills for elementary students.

As it is now, students at St. Columbans already spend one hour every morning working on math.

St. Columban’s new approach to math promotes games, team learning and competition.

The whole school is divided into four “houses” coloured red, green, blue and yellow. They’re called gratitude, belief, peace and courage. The idea of

students from all grades in one school belonging to different houses is similar to the school of Hogwarts in the popular wizarding kids series Harry Potter.

The houses are awarded points based on their perfomance in math and in team challenges.

“The kids are excited about math now and the house challenges raise school spirit,” said Grade 5 and 6 teacher Judy Legault. “The houses also promote inter-grade mentorship and friendships.”

At the kickoff celebration of the new math strategy on Tuesday, all four houses were dressed in their respective colours and entered the gym chanting songs and ready to compete in math.

“We’re right there with them,” she said. “We’re Some of the competitions included geometric the coming year. Legault explained why St. Columban’s is enthusiastic with this new approach an intensive school and wanted to more support drawing and solo cup stacking.

The math strategy will continue throughout to teaching math skills. for math.”

Extend the Life of Your Christmas Tree: After the Christmas season is over, consider finding various ways to get the most out of your Christmas tree. For example, put your tree in your backyard and cover it with peanut butter, seeds and orange slices. Your Christmas tree will be transformed into a giant bird feeder, one that not only feeds the birds, but also provides them with needed protection against the cold and wind. Or, if you would prefer, cut your tree into smaller pieces to use as logs for your fireplace.

Winter Car Care Tips ~ Switch to winter wiper blades, which prevent ice buildup. Don’t forget low-temperature-rated windshieldwiper fluid too. It contains extra alcohol so it won’t freeze. Today’s antifreezes usually need replacing every 70,000 kilometres, but it’s a good idea to have your antifreeze checked every fall as well. The shop will check the ratio of antifreeze to water and adjust the levels as needed.

Legend of Rosemary ~ Rosemary, with its fragrant grey-green leaves, used to be one of the most popular Christmas decorations and was used to adorn the boar’s head at Christmas dinners. Legend holds that rosemary acquired its beautiful scent when Jesus’ swaddling clothes were hung over it in the stable, and it is said that its colour was acquired when Mary threw her purple robe over the bush.

There were no two ways about it. Rosie had a bad weight problem.

“Martha”, said Rosie to her best friend, “it was terrible what happened yesterday after the birthday party. You know how half of the birthday cake was left over? Well, I knew Bob would be fuming at me for eating it,with my diet and all, but I couldn’t help myself, it started with just a small nibble and before I knew it the whole cake was gone!.”

“Oh my!” clucked Martha, “was Bob really upset?”

“He never found it”, responded Rosie with a full double chin smile, “I just baked another cake and ate half of it!”

Give the birds in your backyard a treat this Christmas and throughout the winter season with Nijer seeds. Nijer is the luxe item on many birds’ Christmas lists. It may be expensive but if you purchase a special nijer feeder for the seed, you’ll avoid a lot of waste and that means more for the birds! The goldfinches, siskins and redpolls in your backyard will thank you!

Police: It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was barking and I saw a little boy staring in at me.

“Is that a dog you got back there?” he asked. “It sure is,” I replied. Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally, he said, “What’d he do?”

Pet Tip of the Week: Family, friends, parties, decorations, food. It’s a wonderful time of year, however, many of the same things that make the holiday season an enjoyable time for humans, make it a dangerous time for pets.

There are many seasonal items that pose a potential risk to our animal companions such as Christmas trees, decorations, electrical cords, wires, candles, human food and toxic plants. It is important for people fortunate enough to share their home with pets to be aware of these hazards and take steps to pet-proof their home to ensure their “best friends” are not put in a position where they could suffer. Also, please make sure to keep your pet safe by ensuring that antifreeze and other liquid automobile products are in tightly closed containers and stored behind closed doors.
