Lights, camera, traffic

Downtown Grimsby was abuzz with action throughout the day last Friday with a production team shooting a Hallmark movie, “Christmas In Montana”. Throughout the day and evening there were intermittent traffic stoppages and pedestrians were stopped for brief periods during shoots but all were in a festive mood, eager to see how things run behind the scenes. In addition to downtown, the crew also used a Main Street West home as a fictitious bed & breakfast. The movie is scheduled to be aired on the Hallmark channel on Thursday, Dec. 12.

Federal candidates have their say By Tristan Marks NewsNow Niagara West residents gathered at the West Niagara Agricultural Centre in Grassie on Wednesday night, Oct. 2, to hear what federal election candidates have to say. The all-candidates meeting hosted

jointly by Grimsby, Lincoln and West Lincoln chambers of commerce- was moderated by David Siegal, professor emeritus of political science at Brock University and drew a crowd of about 180. The six Niagara West candidates included:

Dean Allison, Conservative Party incumbent; Ian Bingham, a Grimsby resident and defense lawyer, Liberal Party; Harold Jonker, West Lincoln’s councillor, Christian Heritage Party; Miles Morton, a life-long member of Grimsby’s community, People’s Party of Can-

ada; Nameer Rahman, former vice-chair of the Grimsby Economic Development Advisory Committee, New Democratic Party, and; Terry Teather, former supervisor of social services for the City of Niagara Falls, Green Party. See VOTE, Page 5

By Mike Williscraft NewsNow The provincial government announced another $2 million of support for West Lincoln Memorial Hospital Tuesday. The funds are to cover costs Hamilton Health Sciences officials say are needed to restore the nowclosed second operating room. That second room, in the short term, is to be used for the storage of sterile equipment and allows for one operating room to continually be used. The move comes 12 days after HHS informed staff at WLMH that obstetrics services would be lost to the facility for about one year. This move was necessitated in the name of patient safety, they claim. Initially, a 1A model had been proposed when one OR was closed for what was supposed to be a sixweek stint but that soon expanded to eight weeks and the day before all was to reopen the long-term closure was rolled out. Tuesday, Robin Mar-

“A year ago, WLMH’s obstetrical program enjoyed an award-winning reputation. Last October, Hamilton Health Sciences, which operates WLMH, declared the facility posed a danger to patient safety and required improvement. After a year of their best efforts, HHS has succeeded to the point that the OB program has left Grimsby in pieces. The question becomes – how much more of HHS’s improvements can WLMH survive?”

Dr. Tom Estall Action Committee Member & former director of emergency medicine, St. Michael’s Hospital tin, parliamentary assistant to Minister of Health Christine Elliott, said the funds are to help get services back up and running at WLMH as quickly as possible. The investment is in addition to the $8.4 See WLMH, Page 3

WLMH From Page 1 million in provincial funding provided to the hospital in November 2018 and the government’s ongoing commitment to support the redevelopment of the facility. “This is a very important day for patients and families in the West Niagara region,” said Niagara West MPP Sam Oosterhoff. “Once renovations are completed, West Lincoln Memorial Hospital will have greater capacity to provide patients and families with access to care in a space that can better meet the needs of a growing community, until the new hospital is built.” The upgrades are anticipated to be completed by late 2020 and include renovations to the operating room suite and endoscopy cleaning facilities, upgrades to the elevator, emergency

generator, fire alarm system, nurse call systems, cooling and heating, plumbing and electrical systems and the replacement of flooring tiles and cabinets across the hospital. While nobody disputes the need for upgrades at the aging facility, all but a handful of local officials both in and out of WLMH dispute the manner in which HHS management has conducted the process over the last year. “There have been some very simple things we have seen both done and not done over the last year such as very little attention to hiring over a long period of time and, more recently, not calling the administration at Joseph Brant Hospital about being a possible transfer location for patients in emergency situations which would have allowed our obstetrics to continue operating,” said

Tony Joosse, co-chair of the WLMH Citizens’ Action Committee. “We’re being told Fall 2020 to get services back up and running. That is simply not good enough. We have consulted some industry leaders and they say the work needed is an 8-10 week job. We recognize some of the design work is still being done, so work estimates are a moving target, but an expedited construction plan could easily reduce the obstetrics closure to about three months.” The work is to include: renovations to the operating room suite and endoscopy cleaning facilities, upgrades to the elevator, emergency generator, fire alarm system, nurse call systems, cooling and heating, plumbing and electrical systems and the replacement of flooring tiles and cabinets across the hospital.

Taking up the torch

Gearing up for the Smithville Santa Claus Parade’s annual fundraising barbecue are (L to R) Natalie Fisher, Jackie Cosby and Kim Fisher. The barbecue will be taking place at the Smithville Foodland on Saturday, Oct. 19. Kim is carrying the torch for her late father Dave Willis, who served as the parade committee’s president for decades. The parade has been set for Saturday, Nov. 30 this year and all parade goers have been asked to wear red and green in Willis’ memory.

For many homeowners, the long-term goal is to be “mortgage-free” before retirement, which is admirable, but then what happens? You will most likely earn less income in retirement than when you were employed, but your expenses aren’t likely to decrease proportionately. Are you prepared to sell your home at that time, or will you have to re-mortgage to get some of your equity so that you can continue to live in the home? After retirement, your access to competitively-priced mortgage solutions will diminish - which is why reverse mortgages have become the default alternative for many senior homeowners. Reverse mortgages can be a great solution for the age 80+ homeowner, but for younger retired homeowners, the ultimate “retirement mortgage” is a home equity line of credit. Your success at obtaining a mortgage is dependent on your income - The more you earn, the more you can borrow. Financial institutions may not include your RIF income when assessing a mortgage application, unless the RIF is guaranteed to provide continuous income well past the term of the mortgage and the RIF portfolio is at least 1.5 times the amount you are trying to borrow. It is much easier to be approved for credit while you are still gainfully employed. You may retire and not need to access your home equity for many more years, but when you do finally need to access your equity, wouldn’t it be comforting to know that you can - without having to sell? If you are approaching retirement in the next three to five years, and you want to continue to live in your home well past that retirement date, then I strongly encourage you to make an appointment with me so that we can take some time now to plan for that. Talk to us. You’ll be impressed.

VOTE

From Page 1 The first question centred on how relations with China, the U.S. and other countries could be improved to open opportunities for Canadian business. Bingham defended the Liberal’s record by citing the three treaties it forged during its tenure, including the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) which replaced NAFTA. The most of the others attacked that particular example, among others. Teather was especially critical about how the USMCA allows foreign companies to oppose Canada’s national laws. “Foreign Corporations now have extraordinary powers to negotiate where Canadian laws should take precedent,” he said. Rahman and Jonkers also criticized the Trudeau government’s “problematic” associations with illiberal countries such as Saudi Arabia and China. Candidates explained how their party planned to reduce costs of living for voters and to pay for these policies. The candidates offered diverse answers. Bingham supported the government’s current course, citing his party’s platform promises and existing policies such as the Canada Child Benefit. “It’s not spending if it’s done wisely,” he said. “It’s an investment and we’re going to see a return on that investment.” Rahman suggested further policies such as abolishing interest on student loans, and providing financial benefits to care-takers for seniors. Allison pitched his party’s proposed universal tax benefit, the removal of HST on heating bills, among other similar policies. Jonkers pointed out the need for the Government to “pay off its debts,” and proposed a plan where taxes were proportional to how much money one spent. Morton touted his party’s plan to simplify the federal tax system, and to increase revenue by cutting funding to organizations like the CRTC and CBC. Teather noted the need for the federal government to help workers transition in an era of automation towards a localist economy of “home-based businesses”. The moderator then asked the candidates how their party planned to protect the environment, particularly with Niagara West’s agriculture. Teather said his party “certainly supports a carbon tax”. He reiterated his earlier point that, to protect

The candidates vying for Niagara West’s votes (L to R) Miles Morton, People’s Party of Canada; incumbent MP Dean Allison, Conservative Party; Terry Teather, Green Party; Harold Jonker, Christian Heritage Party; Ian Bingham, Liberal Party; and Nameer Rahman, NDP all pose together with moderator David Siegal in the centre. Marks - Photo the environment, Canada needs to shift towards a “more local and organic system”. He also said his party would look into financially supporting farmers harmed by climate change. Rahman agreed that “climate change will affect agriculture rather deeply,” although he added that a carbon tax is not the only way to fight it. He listed “practical policies” such as energy refits, introduction of electric vehicles and so on. Bingham advised staying the course with the Liberal’s existing carbon tax policy. “This money goes back to your pockets,” he said, adding that, if elected, he would lobby his government to put money from the tax directly into the WLMH. The other three candidates took a critical stance towards the carbon tax. Allison said that it puts Canada at a competitive disadvantage on the world market. He also said that it will affect certain behaviours that lead to emissions. “We live in a northern climate,” he said. “We don’t have the option of not warming our house. The reality is that this only makes life more expensive for every one of you in the room.” Morton said that the targets set for Canada by the Paris Climate Accords are unrealistic and ultimately meaningless on a global scale, pointing out that Canada’s carbon emissions only made up 1.8% of the world’s total, compared to that of countries such as China. The debate then shifted towards supply management. “This is one of the few times you’ll hear Dean and I agree on something,” Rahman said. Allison said that policies like supply management are unavoidable on the global market. “People subsidize agriculture around the world whether we like it or not,” he said. Morton was the only candi-

date to take a counter-position, stating that his party wants to completely eliminate supply management. “It currently costs the Canadian consumer between $400 to $600 a year on dairy, poultry and eggs,” he said. “This amounts to a 20-percent tax on the poorest Canadian.” He elaborated on the PPC’s plan to phase out the program slowly and to buy back excess quota so that no farmer would be “left out to dry.’’ The topic of immigration came up, and candidates explained their party’s stance on the issue. Rahman said it was necessary as Canada’s birth rate of 1.5 does not meet the required replacement rate of 2.1. Bingham said there was an easily trackable economic benefit, as every 10% increase of immigration from a specific country translated to a 1% increase in trade with it. Teather said that his party agrees the position that immigration is necessary, but also pointed out that there will be certain logistical requirements such as the need to fund more ESL/FSL education. Allison said an immigration policy has to target specific needs such as economy, skilled labour and so on. Morton agreed with this sentiment, but also pointed out that only 26-percent of Canada’s immigrants in the past year came from skilled labour and that his party would drastically cut down Canada’s immigration quota from 350,000 to 150,000 a year. Jonker pointed out the need to screen immigrants coming, but that his party’s stance on abortion is a better way to promote population growth. The issue of abortion also came up. Bingham, Teather and Rahman said they and their party supported it. Morton said that the PPC has no official position on the issue, but that another member had already drafted a private mem-

ber’s bill that supports which restricts third trimester abortion. Jonker laid out his party’s opposition to abortion and said that his party “also defends the rights of the unborn.” “When a woman becomes pregnant, there are now two lives that we need to defend,” he said. After that, the candidates were asked about their position on electoral reform. Once again, all but one candidate supported the notion. Bingham said his party had failed on this issue. “Now let me tell you where you’ve been let down...and that’s electoral reform,” he said. “This is something that I support and will continue to support on behalf of you.” Allison was the only candidate to support the existing first-past-the-post system. He said that there’s no “direct responsibility” in systems like proportional representation, where candidates get a seat based on how many votes their party receives overall rather than by region. “Our system’s not perfect, but you have an opportunity every four years to look at the member you have running in your area and...vote that person out,” he said. “That would not happen under a proportional representation system, because you’d have a party list and very little direct representation.” Gun control was the last issue of the night. Every candidates agreed one way or another that gun control was not be a cure all. They mostly agreed on the need to distinguish long guns, used primarily for hunting in rural regions such as West Niagara, from hand guns which, as Bingham said “are used for hunting humans.” They also agreed that, to curb gun violence, there would need to be more funding for social programs and police. Teather revealed a personal connection to the issue, ex-

plaining that his only son was murdered with an illegal weapon. “I am not against legal gun owners,” he said. “But 80-percent of the guns in this country come from the United States illegally and we need to make sure that we strengthen that border security.” He advocated prosecuting gun smugglers to the fullest extent of the law and “not as some customs violation”. He added that funding is needed for education that can turn youth away from joining gangs which perpetrate gun violence. CLOSING REMARKS Morton posed the election as a choice between “the bold reforms of the People’s Party” or the “cronyism” of establishment parties. Jonker argued that Canada’s Christian heritage is “what made this country strong and free” and warned against the “half-truths” in modern politics. Teather said that this election was about the next generation and that any government that does not accomplish “anything vital” during its term “steals from their future.” Bingham emphasized the importance of local representation and said that his goals if elected “are shaped by what [voters] have told me”. Rahman observed in his conclusion that Canadians have “an appetite for change,” and that, while the NDP have long been voters’ second choice, 2019 is a chance to realize that change. Allison pointed to concerns about the Liberal party’s spending, rising taxes and said that his party’s plan would “put that money back into your pockets.” The Federal election is on Monday Oct. 21. Advance polling is available from Oct. 12-14. To check for assigned polling stations or to find out more information on a riding’s candidates and parties, visit Elections.ca.

Lincoln firm offers,

A homegrown solution to cannabis odour noting it is already being used to solve odour issues at landfills. Essentially, a patented solution is diluted with water and run through a mister. “Components attach themselves to the odour causing agents coming from the cannabis greenhouses and neutralize them,” said Muldowney. Calagoure noted the misters are designed to be external to greenhouses, but can be linked internally to exhaust fans for facilities growing in winter months. “That way the air exiting is neutralized and nothing can freeze,” said Calagoure. Lincoln CAO said the municipality would follow up with the duo, whose business is located in Beamsville. “There are a few

RE-ELECT

odour mitigation specialists that claim they can help establish measurable parameters and put in place mitigation measures. We have recently received a call from one of these and staff do plan on reaching out again to hear the potential,” said Kirkopoulos. Muldowney said there are measures which can be taken but noted there are no guidelines at the federal level and until regulation is law, very few companies will take the extra step to deal with odour if they don’t have to do so. He added that, relative to cost of start-up and running a grow operation, the mister is not overly expensive. He said a large greenhouse might hit six figures for installation. The cost to operate would be about

$210/day. With respect to the Maple Leaf Nurseries in Jordan - the subject of the Sept. 26 story, Kirkopoulos said the cannabis on that site has been removed. While the grower did have a proper license, the new location was subject to the Lincoln’s interim control bylaw implemented in January 2019. “The ICB prohibits any cannabis cultivation or production for one year. That applies to any (grow operations that weren’t already in existence prior to the bylaw,” said Kirkopoulos. “They weren’t allowed to grow any. The bylaw prohibited even one. So the amount even though they had a license and were growing within it, was irrelevant. Within an ICB any growing is prohibited.”

While there are many firms which may be able to offer a potential solution to cannabis odour issues, Lincoln may have a homegrown remedy. When Paul Muldowney and Jim Calagoure read a story in the Sept. 26 edition of NewsNow relating to extensive odour issues in Jordan and Vineland, they called the newspaper office to say they believe they have just the trick. The duo’s company has Canadian rights to a product used in a misting system which, Muldowney claims, could solve the current array of odour problems faced not just by Vineland/Jordan residents, but anywhere. “We are 100 per cent confident our system could solve the problem,” said Muldowney,

Not every hero wears a cape: plan, practice your escape! If there is a fire in your home, you may have as little as one to two minutes to safely escape. In a fire, seconds count; having a home escape plan and working smoke alarms in your home will alert you to a fire before it spreads, giving you the time needed to get out safely. This year’s Fire Prevention Week theme is: “Not every hero wears a cape. Plan and practice your escape!”. A home escape plan includes knowing two ways out of every room, usually a door and a window, with a clear path to an outside meeting place (like a tree, light pole or mailbox) that is a safe distance from the home. Escape planning and practice can help you make the most of the time you have, giving everyone enough time to get out. In Ontario it is the law that every home have working smoke alarms installed on all levels of the home, including basements, and outside

Fire Prevention Week and particularly this year’s theme, is intended to remind our residents that we all have a role to play in fire safety. During this campaign, and all year long, please be a fire safety advocate, take responsibility for your own fire safety by helping stop fire before it starts and being prepared to react by having and practicing your home fire escape plan. Escape planning and practice will help you make the most out of the time you have, giving everyone enough time to get out.

grown-ups get birthday wishes granted. Smithville resident Linda Barker – who is being cared for at McNally House Hospice in Grimsby – was asked by her friend Kathy Sarantakos what she wanted for her upcoming birthday, Sept. 18. Linda’s answer? “I want a fireman!” Aiming to make this

for her friend, Kathy approached the West Lincoln Fire Department. With their support, all was set. Little did Kathy know that she would also receive a pleasant surprise of her own: a handful of firefighters arriving for Linda. “When they said they were sending someone down we just thought it would be one person,” Kathy said, “But they sent us four.” West Lincoln Fire’s Zoli Rakonjac, Matt Brouwer, Colton Brock-

represented the department well. “When she saw them, there was a big smile on her face and she got so excited,” she said. “She hugged them all and thanked them for coming.” Linda’s daughter Amanda Barker said the firefighters made a wonderful impact. “It definitely brought her so much joy and laughter,” she said. “It was really a wonderful day for her and everyone.”

King Street in Beamsville came to life Saturday evening filled with crowds for the Fling on King. There was live music, food, and all sorts of activities like mad science and facepainting as part of Lincoln ReRooted. “A few hours (after Pioneer Day) there’s a complete turn of events,” said Mayor Sandra Easton. “The modern experience with families walking to King Street, meeting their neighbours, children greeting each other on their shared turf and enjoying themselves having a blast with a tremendous stage band.”

CONNECT HEARING – HEARING STUDY UPDATE SEPT 2019 10.25” × 3.929” 10/07/19

(L-R)Maggie Malley, Chelsea Burnett, Mike Nicoletti, Cassie Rattle, Jodie Cadwell and Dawn Thorp from Meridian Credit Union’s Beamsville branch gathered food donations for CCWN.

Help the University of Guelph improve hearing healthcare across Canada. Connect Hearing and Professor Mark Fenske at the University of Guelph are seeking participants who are over 50 years of age, have never worn hearing aids and have not had a hearing test in the last 24 months, for a hearing study that investigates factors that can influence better hearing. Study Parameters The researchers will examine listening in a range of situations, from one-on-one, to group conversations, watching TV and wider social contexts like supermarkets and other noisy environments, and how it effects connection and socialization.

Why Participate? It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss, but most do not seek a solution right away. In this study you’ll be playing an important part in determining the key factors around identifying hearing loss and what influences the decision to seek treatment.

Participants will be significantly adding to growing knowledge surrounding hearing loss. You can register to be part of this groundbreaking new hearing study by calling 1.888.242.4892 or visiting connecthearing.ca/hearing-study *Wingfield, A., Tun, P. A., & McCoy, S. L. (2005).

Dear Editor, Since the early start of summer we have been smelling a stench from cannabis. It wasn’t till a week later that we became aware of the fact that the odour was coming from the greenhouses behind our home. We had beautiful weather this summer, with very limited use of the outdoors in our backyard, even when friends and family vis-

LETTERS ited they didn’t want to be outdoors due to the odour. In talking to many of our neighbors they also had the same reality. We appreciate what the Town of Lincoln has done to this point and we want to make sure this doesn’t happen again. As a community we have to stand together to sup-

port the town and put regulations in place. Health Canada and the federal government have not been any help when I called them, very frustrating to say the least. If this is what our green space and agricultural land is destined for, that makes us very sad. Very concerned residents in Vineland, Jim and Vicky Stienstra Vineland

A Soirée to remember

(Above) Among guests at the WLM Auxiliary’s semiannual Soirée du Vin were (L to R) Jim Volk; Dr. Anne Nwebube and her husband Dr. Nwachukwu Nwebube, WLMH head of obstetrics; and; Mary Volk, member of HHS board of directors. The event was hosted at Megalomaniac Winery, with food catered by Inn On The Twenty.

Dough in hand, HHS can get it done Many, many, many months ago, Tony Joosse was asking HHS for one simple thing: a barbecue on the front lawn to show the staff at West Lincoln Memorial Hospital how much they mean to the community. No doubt they needed the mental boost then but it was never permitted. It was even discussed to have the barbecue anyways at an adjacent parking lot and have to-go containers so staff who were short for time could grab something on the run. It was decided that would really defeat the purpose of creating an air of optimism and positivity since there would be no cooperation in hosting it in the first place. It is that kind of disrespect and utter dismissal which has become the rule rather than the exception over the last year under Hamilton Health Sciences. And if you think staff don’t need a pat on the back these days, think again. Over the last week I have heard many accounts of how staff have been “beaten up” because they dared speak to the media - me - about HHS’s most recent decision to close obstetrics for about one year. Before I go a word further, it is important to note, with full recognition, HHS has a tough job to do. They face cost concerns in the face of revenue constraints. Sure there are staffing issues with an ultra-competitive environment coast to coast. Management can be brutal in its decisions but humane in its conduct. Business and economics are not fun. It rarely, if ever, cares even one iota about the human element of its decisions. My understanding for the handling of the WLMH file gets off the bus at that point, however.

MIKE WILLISCRAFT That is why I called last week for the province to hire a supervisor to extract HHS’s management from the oversight of WLMH until full service levels are restored and the shovel is in the ground for the rebuild. If that is not done, HHS will go down that path kicking and screaming into that good night. So far, every single opportunity muck up the process and delay that shovel beyond the next provincial election has been taken. That is not just my view, but the view of the majority of local officials who have been paying close attention to this ongoing saga since October 2018 when the “need” for a 27-month closure was first conjured. And if you think it is just, “There goes Mike, blowing off hot air again”, think again. Note the comment from Dr. Tom Estall on this edition’s front page. I have known Dr. Estall virtually from the time he settled in Jordan many years ago. In his working life, he was a highly respected physician and director of emergency medicine at the very busy St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto. “A year ago, WLMH’s obstetrical program enjoyed an award-winning reputation,” said Dr. Estall. “Last October, Hamilton

Health Sciences, which operates WLMH, declared the facility posed a danger to patient safety and required improvement.” “After a year of their best efforts, HHS has succeeded to the point that the OB program has left Grimsby in pieces.” “The question becomes – how much more of HHS’s improvements can WLMH survive?” If I may so bold as to interpret...the good doctor is calling bullpucky on just about every move HHS has made in the last year. As well, from previous interviews with Dr. Estall going back to the Accreditation Canada angle which was being played, it is known Dr. Estall believes - as I do - the patient safety issue relating to sterile equipment storage was overblown from the start. So, it’s Thanksgiving you HHS folk. Let’s stop the threats. Let’s stop the meeting cancellations. Let’s turn the page and do right by Team WLMH, please. The provincial government has come through, yet again on Tuesday, for WLMH by expediting $2 million to get the renovations you claim are needed. The process has been approved to tack that work onto an existing work order with changes instead of having to go though an entire tender process. Now the ball is in your court...again. Show staff, show the community you can do the right thing by expediting the contracts and work - including a 24/7 construction plan, which those in the construction field say could reduce the closure window for obstetrics from a year down to 2-3 months. You have that ability, HHS. Now what are you going to do about it?

Cannabis odour problem need addressing LETTERS who are subjected to these fumes. I have witnessed elementary school students plug their noses as they exit their school bus. This is unacceptable on every level. Broader questions need to addressed: 1. What is the chemical composition of the these fumes, and what is the impact of each component on your health - both short term and long term? 2. Who is monitoring the air quality in the immediate environs of the cannabis growing greenhouses? 3. Why isn’t Ontario Ministry of the Environment shutting

these factory-like operations down until such time as zero pollution is emitted? 4. Property values have been negatively impacted. Would you want to live in an area where you are forced to inhale noxious marijuana fumes due to the lack of oversight by all levels of government federal, provincial, regional and municipal? 5. Who owns the legal liability - both short term and long term for any health-related outcomes? In traveling the back roads of Lincoln, there is evidence of additional cannabis growing operations in the formative stages. The problem will only get worse for all of us who have

the privilege of living in one of the most beautiful areas of Canada. The Town of Lincoln management team and Lincoln town council have shown some leadership on this difficult file, but much more needs to be done. A digital map on the Town of Lincoln’s website showing the locations of existing cannabis growing greenhouses and future locations would be of service to taxpayers. Lincoln is on the threshold of losing its image as a premier tourism destination if these cannabis growing operations are not forced to comply with laws of the land. Alan Wojcik Jordan, Ontario

Cannabis odour impacts day-to-day life Dear Editor, My wife and I moved to Vineland in 2017. We had searched across Niagara for half a year before deciding on Vineland. I’m originally from Vineland, and it ‘ticked off’ all the boxes for us: a small community, lots of parks, close to major amenities, and a progressive council and town vision. We were excited to begin a family and get involved in the com-

munity. Lately however, we have been re-evaluating our decision. You see, a greenhouse, only meters from our home (which previously grew nursery stock since its inception), has begun growing marijuana. Our neighbours on 23rd Street in Vineland and the surrounding area, have also taken notice. It affects our everyday lives: I no longer leave the win-

dows open: instead, I turn on the air. Instead of going to local a close-by park with our daughters, we leave the community to enjoy the outdoors. When we entertain guests, we don’t sit outside in the backyard. The stench is unbearable. We thought our community was protected under Lincoln’s interim control bylaw, but lately we have been left feeling frus-

trated and ignored, by the grower, by our councilors, and by town staff. How could this happen in our community? Why does the greenhouse not have an air filtration system? Why is there no security on site? All of this has left us wondering: is Vineland really the place we want to raise our young family? D. Klassen Vineland

Dear Editor, Thank you Mike for your excellent article “Vineland residents irate over cannabis odour problem” that was published in the Sept. 26 edition of NewsNow. As a Jordan resident, I have inhaled the noxious fumes that these cannabis growing greenhouses spew into the environment almost on a daily basis. It’s at the point were you can’t even enjoy the tranquility of your own back yard. Symptoms include: headaches, watery eyes, coughing, sore throat and the unmistakable taste of residual marijuana in your mouth. We all should be concerned for the children
