Niagara Gateway info centre still on chopping block Niagara Region’s off-again, on-again policy on supporting tourism as an economic driver may be about to switch off, again, where Grimsby Gateway’s tourism information centre is concerned. Long-time tourism advocate Bruce Manion was hired by Niagara Region to staff the gateway kiosk on Tuesdays and Fridays, roughly, for the months of April and May. Now in the dog days of summer, he is still there to meet, greet and steer thousands of visitors dropping into the facility at Casablanca Boulevard and the South Service Road. “This is a typical day, look,” said Manion Tuesday morning, pointing to photos he took early that morning after shelves were picked nearly clean of tourism brochures. “I come in every day just to replenish the shelves and stay on top of inventory. I have to order 20-30 boxes at a time because it is gone in days and can take a couple of weeks See TOURISM, Page 3

Grimsby diamond losing its sheen due to ongoing MVA issues Grimsby Ald. Dave Kadwell has his hopes pinned on the provincial government when it comes to possible changes to Grimsby’s traffic “diamond”. The “diamond”, which has proven unusually treacherous over a long period of time, spans the area that includes the exits and on ramps for the Christie-OntarioMaple exit of the QEW. After a series of serious accidents in 2014, Kadwell called up MPP Tim Hudak in hopes that some attention from the Minis-

try of Transportation could spur some action highlighting stop signs and the unique road structure. Going through staff and Minister of Transport Steven Del Duca himself in September 2015 has still amounted to little action taken. Now another rash of accidents this summer has resulted in another push with the provincial government. “Hopefully action follows a lot quicker than past actions by our provincial government,” said Kadwell.

Hudak hopes the government reacts to his most recent letter on the file, sent last Tuesday. “It is now almost two years since this issue was first brought to my attention and to the attention of the MTO, warning signs have been added to the intersections in question and yet accidents continue to happen in this area causing real concern for residents and community leaders. In fact, two more vehicle accidents were reported just last week,” wrote Hudak.

“The number of traffic accidents at this location continues to go up, all with some degree of property damage, many with personal injury and, in one case, a fatality. That fatal accident two years ago is what prompted Alderman Kadwell to ask for my assistance and he continues to be concerned that another death is imminent if nothing is done. Minister DelDuca, urgent action is required here to ensure another fatal accident does not happen in this area.”

TOURISM FROM PAGE 1 to get more stock.” The presence of a tourism information booth has been an ongoing struggle since the gateway first opened in 2001. For many years, the Grimsby Chamber of Commerce operated its office at the site and provided tourist information as part of its service. The chamber pulled out of the gateway several years ago due to cost issues and volatility of support from both the Town of Grimsby and Niagara Region. Proponents of the service believe having a tourism information stop is crucial to stimulate traffic in Niagara West as visitors make their way, typically, to Niagara Falls and

News Now • Thursday, August 4, 2016 • Page 3 Niagara-on-the-Lake. “Without this stop here, people will just continue on right to Niagara Falls,” said Manion, who spends a lot of his own time networking with local businesses to get promotional material which will enable him to drive traffic to their door. “Now, I go to wineries and retailers and ask for tasting passes or things I can promote.” As examples, he said promotional material given on Tuesdays for Kacaba Vineyards in Vineland results in significant additional traffic on those days. As well, Chocolate FX in St. David’s does up specific material for Grimsby Gateway to assess impact and, there too, there is measurable positive

impact,” said Manion. For Jim and Ann Welsh of Newcastle, the kiosk has proven invaluable from the outset. “We’ve been stopping here once or twice a year since it opened. It is easy and convenient and there is great, local information,” said Jim on Tuesday. “We usually come with a big group, but is just us today. Since we come every year, we want to know the new things, the hidden things of the area and they always have good information here.” The matter will come before Grimsby council as part of its Aug. 15 agenda. Manion is asking anyone who supports maintaining the facility to attend.

Are you ready to “think outside the Bank”? When shopping for a Variable-Rate mortgage, pay attention to how you will be treated by your bank or credit union if, at some point during the term, you want to convert, or lock-in, that Variable-Rate mortgage to a Fixed-Rate term. It’s important to know in advance how you will be treated. Sometimes, the lender’s Variable-Rate mortgage contract will specify the discount you may be eligible for, or entitled to, when you convert to a fixed term, but if there is no mention of it, then it is left to the branch’s discretion. - Are you prepared to negotiate with your branch at that time for a rate that is competitivecompared to what you see advertised elsewhere? - Do you understand the penalty calculation and other fees, should you decide to break your Variable-Rate mortgage to go elsewhere for a lower Fixed-Term rate than what your current institution is offering you? When you work with me, I will ensure that your mortgage is placed with a lender that provides a transparent conversion policy, so that there is no ambiguity nor discretionary pricing, working against you later on. Talk to us. You’ll be impressed.

BDSS booster, historian, author, Skip Gillham, claimed by cancer Noted historian, author and very popular figure at Beamsville District Secondary School, Skip Gillham died Wednesday, July 27, after a long battle with cancer. He was 75. Skip, who has been a long-time NewsNow columnist and went back decades with a host of community newspapers with his “Shipwrecks of the Great Lakes” column was wellknown to many across the province. A prolific writer, Skip authored 60 books about shipping and shipping companies which worked the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway. His last column for NewsNow, appeared in the June 23 edition and highlighted the exploits of the Orsula, which helped set a record for the latest closing of the Seaway by being the last ship to pass through on Jan. 1, 2014. While Skip loved all things nautical, he may have loved BDSS, its students and staff more. “Skip had an overwhelming compassion for humanity. He always saw the posi-

E.B. SKIP GILLHAM tive potential in all of us. Whether it was in the classroom, the staff room, the track or the street, Skip saw every moment as an opportunity to “make a difference” in the lives of everyone he came in contact with. His goodwill was infectious and he made you want to be a better person,” said former BDSS principal Mike Jenken. “Because of Skip’s level of care for those around him, BDSS held a special place in his heart as a reservoir of humanity and untapped potential. He loved being around people and we loved being around him. Everyday was a new opportunity to “do your best” and that quest never ended for him.” “Even after he retired, he maintained an active relationship with the school

and its staff and students, those in the past and in the present. He made it a point to celebrate his students and their successes which in turn became points of glory for our communities. He made us all proud to be a “Buccaneer” and a citizen of Lincoln. Skip is survived by his wife Carol, sons David (Betty), Doug (Heather) and grandchildren Sammi, Abby, Riley, Enoch and Tessa, and by step-brothers Nick (Betty) and Digby (Valerie) Sale and step-sister Joanna (Juhan) Lille. Donations in Skip’s memory may be made to Ontario Pioneer Camp, Cedar Campus or the Welland Canal Mission. The family will receive friends at the Vineland chapel of the Tallman Funeral Homes, 3277 King St., on Wednesday, Aug. 3 from 2-4 and 7-9 pm. The burial will be private at Vineland Cemetery. A memorial service will be held at Glenridge Bible Church, 310 Scott St., St. Catharines on Saturday, Aug. 13 at 3 pm.

Tuesday July 12, 2016 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BURN BAN REMAINS IN EFFECT ACROSS NIAGARA WEST Grimsby, Lincoln, West Lincoln, ON – The Fire Chiefs of Grimsby, Lincoln and West Lincoln, remind all residents of Niagara West municipalities that the Fire Chiefs have issued a BAN ON OPEN-AIR FIRES that applies everywhere in Grimsby, Lincoln and West Lincoln; NO EXCEPTIONS. These bans include all backyard recreational fires, other open flame devices, and suspend all burning permits. These BANS will remain in place until further notice by the Fire Chiefs of each respective community, pending substantial changes in local conditions that will reduce the risk of spread of fire. BBQs using natural gas, propane, or BBQ charcoal ONLY are exempted from this ban and only if they are being directly used for cooking purposes AND supervised at all times. No other use is permitted and all fires must be lit immediately before and extinguished immediately after cooking is completed. No wood fuels are permitted. Residents are asked to be extra vigilant. Construction activity that requires the use of open flame devices (example roofing operations) are not yet subject to this ban, HOWEVER, operators must exercise extreme caution to avoid starting fires, as conditions are dry and fires can start more easily than normal or expected. Smoker’s materials should be fully extinguished in non-combustible containers, preferably in water. NEVER discard smoker’s material in gardens or mulch. Natural Resources Canada has forecasted much of Niagara Region as EXTREME Fire Danger. For more information follow: http://cwfis.cfs.nrcan.gc.ca/maps/fw. For specific information on open-air fire regulations within your municipality please reference the respective websites. Residents are also reminded that it is not legal to to set-off consumer fireworks in the Grimsby, Lincoln and West Lincoln after Canada Day. Substantial fines and costs may be levied against persons who violate the Open-Air Fires or the Fireworks bylaws, or who violate the Burn Ban. In addition to penalties or fines, the Fire Departments may further recover ALL COSTS incurred in response to violations. If you require more specific information regarding the BURN BAN please contact your local Fire Department.

E.B. “Skip” Gillham

passed away on July 27, 2016 at the age of 75. He felt his life had been blessed by his wife Carol, sons David (Betty), Doug (Heather) and grandchildren Sammi, Abby, Riley, Enoch and Tessa. He is survived by step-brothers Nick (Betty) and Digby (Valerie) Sale and step-sister Joanna (Juhan) Lille. Born in Toronto, Skip taught high school in Waterford and Beamsville for 33 years and continued to coach for another 10 years after retiring in 1997. He enjoyed his work as Guidance Counsellor and P.E. teacher and developed life long friendships with many of his former students and athletes. Skip sought to live out his Christian faith and served in various capacities in his church, on the Board of the Welland Canal Mission, at Pioneer Camp and Cedar Campus. He wrote numerous books, thousands of articles for a variety of newspapers, historical journals, corporate newsletters and online websites, but perhaps is best known for his “Ships That Ply The Lakes” column in the St. Catharines Standard from 1970 until 2016. Donations in Skip’s memory may be made to Ontario Pioneer Camp, Cedar Campus or the Welland Canal Mission. The family will receive friends at the VINELAND CHAPEL of the TALLMAN FUNERAL HOMES, 3277 King St., on Wednesday, August 3rd from 2-4 and 7-9 pm. The burial will be private at Vineland Cemetery. The Memorial Service will be held at Glenridge Bible Church, 310 Scott St., St. Catharines on Saturday, August 13th at 3 pm.

IN MEMORIAM Rodney Merritt October 17, 1970 - August 5, 1987 cd

Next step...

With its first anniversary now in the rearview mirror, the team at New Again, located at King Street and Stadelbauer in Beamsville have turned their attention to their Sept. 15 volunteer appreciation night. Peggy Cook (left), manager of the non-proift outlet, which raises funds for NACE (Niagara Association for Christian Education) along with Paul Larman of Beamsville and Sue Priestly of Smithville - both regular volunteers.

Tourism initiative worthy of support As Bruce Manion understands it, Niagara Region is struggling with justifying the $80,000 price tag associated with maintaining a LIVE, ongoing tourism-motivated presence at Grimsby Gateway. Now the region blows a lot of dough - case in point that roundabout at Durham Road and Hwy. 8, for example – but investing $80,000 which would provide significant positive impact for businesses in a wide variety of the region’s municipalities in addition to Niagara Falls is a no-brainer. Now, that does not mean common sense will prevail. We’re talking politicians here, and ones easily fixated on Niagara Falls where tourism is concerned. To lend support, feel free to attend the Grimsby council meeting, Monday, Aug. 15, 6:30 p.m.

BDSS’s biggest fan will be missed I must say, I feel like a complete bonehead today. It wasn’t really my fault, or anyone’s for that matter, but I feel like the community missed out on a great opportunity to hear directly from one of the most passion-driven people I have ever known. Over the last year, I spoke with Skip Gillham on many occasions, usually about planning out his submissions for his long-standing and popular Shipwreck column. We also spoke about sports on a regular basis, as well as his beloved Beamsville District Secondary School, its current students and teachers. As well, he would always keep current on the exploits of the school’s grads He was a living, breathing encyclopedia (people under 25 can google to see what that is) of all things Beamsville, really, as most people getting things in done in Lincoln are BDSS grads. Skip passed away last week after a long, difficult battle with cancer. He had several ups and downs, good runs and rough, but his demeanor never changed - positive, forward-looking always. The last time I saw him was a couple of months ago. We both happened to be at one of his favourite spots, Grand Oak in Vineland, at the same time. On that occasion, as we had done several times in the last year, part of the conversation revolved around getting together to talk to him regarding his passion for the Great Lakes, freighters and all things shipping. The theme under which

MIKE WILLISCRAFT we launched ClubWest Magazine was to showcase the passions, pursuits and pastimes of Niagara West residents. That was Skip all over. I wanted to do a full feature on him, but the timing never worked out for him. His passion did not just arise as he looked for an activity to keep him out of trouble after he retired from BDSS in hopes a hobby would keep him out of trouble. My connection with Skip goes all the way back to my start in community papers at the Goderich Signal-Star back in the mid-1980s. We used to run a broadsheet style paper there in two sections and my task at that time was to cover all things sports and lay out the “Community” section. This included major features, the sports section, and a host of columns we published weekly. Being before email et al, the world of mailed copy, faxes and occasional phone calls were the form of communication with Skip as we ran his column in the Signal long before I got there and long after. For many lakeside communities, his offerings

provided a glimpse in the history of waterways which are right under our collective noses, but would rarely have an opportunity to learn about. It was a complete pleasure working with him on and off for 30-plus years. In addition to his Great Lakes interests, Skip was mad for all thing BDSS. If a grad did something, any place on the globe, I could be sure to get a little note from Skip along the lines of, “Hi Mike, did you hear about X. He/she did Y. You might want to look into that, but if you need any background I have supplied a little.” Then he would proceed to send me a whole, great story complete with detail and insight which can only come through someone who was there to see some of these things happen for these story subjects. He never asked for and never would accept a dollar I offered. He know what we are trying to do there, and always appreciated an underdog. If anything, I am an underdog. In the sporting world, teams employ a “next man up” theory. Take Skip’s beloved Jays. Bautista goes down, next man up needs to fill those shoes and then some. No complaining. No beefing. And that is how Skip was. I never heard him complain. He always looked forward. He was honest about his condition, but never got into a negative spin. That is a remarkable thing to do when faced with a difficult foe, but that was Skip. A prince of a man! Condolences to his entire family and social circle.

OMB hearing disheartens homeowners Dear Editor, The OMB hearing on Thursday, July 28, 2016, left us and our neighbors extremely disheartened. We were there as two of almost 100 petitioners supporting appellants who oppose the outrageous building variances granted for two monster houses planned on lots 50 and 52 of Dorchester Drive, immediately south of Centennial Park. The developers were at the hearing with two lawyers and a “planning expert”, all from Toronto, who dominated the hearing with legal and technical jargon and twisted facts in support of their clients. One does not need lawyers and experts to see that these variances vastly exceed Grimsby’s own zon-

er than the maximum permitted. These houses will not reflect the character of our neighborhood homes, most of which are modest single-storey and split-level homes with only one-quarter the square footage of each of these monsters. Why does our Town betray its own residents by succumbing to hired, out-of-town lawyers and paid

Letter ing laws and design policies. Left unchallenged, two extremely large homes, each three stories high, and one with a four-car garage, will be built on these lots. The homes will have footprints between two and three times the zoning allowance and the height will be one-third great-
