EMC Sports - Inspirational stories of both behind-the-scenes dedication and public triumph marked the 31st annual Smiths Falls Recreation Hall of Fame induction ceremonies Sunday, June 23. Hall of Fame Committee chair Dave White said the committee chose this year to recognize “more the builders than the star athletes, because without the builders you don’t have the star athletes.” Inducted this year were the late W.H. “Bill” LeSurf, Neil MacDonald, Karen Tye Vaillancourt, the late Bill Weston, and the 1980 SFDCI Ontario School Boy Team curling champions. The Sunday afternoon ceremonies at the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre Hall also included the addition of two new members to the Wall of Fame, which White said “highlights people who came through this community on their way to a professional sports career.” One was Bill Weston, also inducted into the Hall of Fame. The other was Maxim Spiridonov, who played for the Smiths Falls Bears in 1995-96, and was later drafted by the Edmonton Oilers. Although Bill LeSurf did participate in sports, including a stint with the SFDCI football team, it was his role in preserving local history that led to his induction into the Hall of Fame. LeSurf, a long-time member of town council, launched the “Save Our Station” campaign, gathering more than 3,000 signatures and saving the former CN railway station on William Street from destruction. The station then became the Smiths Falls Railway Museum. For his efforts on this project the Canadian Railroad Historical Association presented LeSurf with a lifetime achievement award in 2002. “He had a passion and the desire to see history preserved in Smiths Falls,” said Mayor Dennis Staples.

and fondly remembers playing against Marcel Dionne of the St. Catharines Blackhawks. He moved to Smiths Falls and became involved in recreational hockey. He went on to organize and run the team known as the Smiths Falls Old Suds, actively scheduling out-of-town games and tournaments across eastern Ontario. The team also gave back to the community by donating time to various fundraising events for the town. MacDonald “was a tremendous guy to play for,” commented master of ceremonies Hugh Colton. “I didn’t score many goals, but made lots of friends,” added MacDonald.

Long-time referee Karen Tye Vaillancourt has been involved in sports all her life. She began during her school years participating in basketball, volleyball and softball, and was catcher for the Smiths Falls Teddy Bears for five years. Vaillancourt also played broomball in the winter months, and became involved in women’s hockey when the sport was introduced to the area. She also curled competitively for five years. Vaillancourt enjoyed success with the Smiths Falls Road Runners ball club, winning league and tournament championships. For the past 19 years she has been a referee in the ODWHA, OWHA and CARHA Referee Association. “Karen is well-known for her patience and guidance with the young players and new referees,” said Colton. “She continues to referee in Smiths Falls and is admired for her commitment to the sport.” Following her induction a visibly emotional Vaillancourt thanked her family and the Hall of Fame committee for their support and recognition. William John (Bill) Weston, born in Smiths Falls in 1912, completed high school in the community before travelling north for work with the railway. While living in Kirkland Lake he Neil MacDonald was born became involved in many sports, and raised in Niagara Falls, See TOWN page SF3 played minor hockey as a goalie,

Highway 43 Memorial ride kicks off Saturday in Perth By LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com

EMC News – Homeless veterans will never be forgotten if the Canadian Army Veterans (CAV) have anything to do with it. For the second year, the 1 CAV Sicily Motorcycle Unit of Morrisburg will be in Perth to kick off their ride – Operation Leave: Leave the Streets Behind – that hits legion branches Highway 43 on their way back home to Branch 48 in Morrisburg. Bill “Justus” Aitken is the vice president of this branch of riders. As a war vet, this ride touches a little piece of him – as it does with all members of the unit. “I can relate to the anxiety issues and depression… I was 24 years in the military and I get how (homelessness) happens… how it can come to that,” he said. “It’s not an easy thing. Individuals have to take control and have that need to change their lives so they can feel better.” The CAV’s goal is to help other vets. “This event is not to take

away from our fallen soldiers from Afghanistan.” Aitken said this ride’s donations will go directly towards helping families and it will go to the Homeless Veterans Assistance Fund. Last year, they raised close to $5,000. “There are so many issues for vets once they come home,” he said. “So many people don’t get that.” What the public may not know, he added, is that over 2,400 solders were wounded or dismembered who came back from Afghanistan. “What happens to them?” “Initially, they get treated for injuries, given information on what’s happening and where to go for help,” Aitken said. But that’s not enough. “Vets helping vets. That’s the real thing happening here” with this ride, he added. “Those we have asked for sponsorship or to get involved have been great. They love helping and donating and that the money is going to war vets and their families.”

Ride throughout region On Saturday, riders will gather at the Canadian Tire store in Perth, on Highway 7 for their ride through Perth to Highway 43. The route will take participants through Burritts Rapids, Kemptville, and then to Chesterville where they will break for lunch at the legion. Following that, the group will head to Alexandria, hit Lancaster on Highway 34, circle back to Morrisburg via Highway 2 at the Long Sault Parkway. “In Morrisburg, we will be having a barbecue dinner at the Legion (Branch 48) and we should be there about 4 p.m.,” Aitken said. On display at the Morrisburg Legion will be a replica of the Portraits of Honour mural. A copy of artist Dave Sopha’s piece was reproduced on canvas and will be available for viewing at the Morrisburg Legion throughout the day. The original 10-foot by 50-foot hand-painted mural depicting soldiers who died in Afghanistan took 6,500 hours to paint.

Five historic homes on display in Merrickville House and Garden Tour July 13 By ASHLEY KULP akulp@perfprint.ca

The eighth annual Merrickville House and Garden Tour is set to unfold Saturday, July 13. This year, five heritage homes and their gardens are on the schedule, including historic Manor House, above. Located at 905 St. Lawrence St., this home was owned by the Mirick family, the founders of Merrickville.

EMC Events – Take a peek inside some of Merrickville’s most historic homes and lush gardens Saturday, July 13 when the eighth annual Merrickville House and Garden Tour returns. The tour, once again being presented by Holy Trinity Anglican Church, runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and this year visitors will be invited into five of the village’s lovely homes. “The lineup this year is unbelievable,� remarked tour organizer Linda Nash. “I cannot believe how lucky I was this year.� According to Nash, all five of the homes on the tour are heritage and accompanying each are “magnificent gardens.� “The whole tour is like a step back in time,� she noted. Due to the fact that each home also has a garden to explore, Nash indicated she didn’t seek out separate gardens. “It’s going to take people all day to see these houses. They’re so interesting,� she commented. Included in that list is Merrickville’s historic Manor House at 905 St. Lawrence St. Owned by David Luxton and Laura Brown, this regal stone home’s claim to fame is that it was owned by the Mirick family, founders of Merrickville, in 1844 and is known as the Harry McLean House by locals. “Current owners David, is the chairman of the Tulip Festival in Ottawa and Laura is a sculptor and artist,� Nash explained. The three-storey structure was completely renovated in 2012. “They left no stone unturned for redoing this house,� she said. “It’s been totally revamped from the first to the third floor.� An example of Georgian architecture, one of the home’s most unique features is winding staircase that leads to a ‘Romeo and Juliet’ style gallery at the top. It is decorated exclusively in fine art and antiques. “I’m so excited (to have this on the tour),� Nash stated. “You could be there all day just looking around that one house.� On the day of the tour, copies of Teresa Charland’s biography on McLean, ‘Building an Empire. “Big Pants� Harry F. McLean and his sons of Martha,’ will be available for purchase. Morning Mist Manor (745 Heri-

view of the river,� Nash said. “It’s another great example of late Georgian buildings in Ontario.� The tour will also take visitors to 105 Lewis St., the Jane Tynsdale House, which was constructed in 1861. It is a two-storey limestone house but was built to look like a storey and a half. “The reason for that is that taxes were higher on a two-storey back then,� Nash stated. “People hesitated at wanting to pay higher taxes, so they made homes like that.� The Tynsdale home has also been lovingly restored and boasts original floors. The windows and roof trim reflect the time period in which it was built. Mirick Home, owned by Joelle Schmid and Nick Previsich is an example of Edwardian architecture, with red and yellow brick detailing. “It’s been renovated with a combination of modern and classic interior design with modern and contemporary pieces mixed with fabulous antiques,� Nash commented. The wraparound veranda and expansive garden are other features. “My jaw dropped when I walked into this house. I love it,� she said. The final home included in the tour is the Molloy Home (105 Water St.), owned by Shirley and Timothy Molloy. This two-storey Victorian home was constructed in 1890 and bears wide porches and gingerbread trim indicative of the time period. It was featured on the tour four years ago and is back by popular demand. “There are only a few houses in Ontario like this and it is split in the middle so you can enter the home from both sides of the veranda,� Nash remarked. “It has two stairways, one at the front and one at the back.� Packed with early Canadian and Victorian antiques, Nash said the property has won several awards for its gardens as well.

UCDSB celebrates National Aboriginal Day all year

TOUR Popular event Almost immediately following the tour each year, Nash begins planning for the next. She said she tends to look for older, heritage homes “because that’s what people want to tour.” “Every year I like to put one modern house in, but as it turns out this year, they are all heritage,” Nash stated. “...The nice thing about this year’s tour is you can walk the entire tour if you want,” she added. Over the past eight years, it’s become a popular tradition throughout Merrickville, with people coming from across Lanark, Leeds and Grenville as well as the Ottawa region. “People start calling in January to find out when tickets are going on sale, so it’s definitely becoming one of the highlights of the summer for Merrickville,” Nash said. “It brings people, com-

Help eliminate violence against women and children in Canada at July 5 fundraiser EMC News – On June 21, Tears4Justice began their very powerful journey across Canada from the east coast to the west coast. The journey is in honour of all missing and murdered Aboriginal women and children, along the Highway of Tears, and all women and children across Canada. The group’s goal is to raise awareness on the many issues regarding the root causes and the lack of resources available to protect Aboriginal women and children. According to Canadian government statistics Indigenous women are five to seven times more likely than other women to die as the result of violence. The

Native Women’s Association of Canada has documented more than 580 cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada, most within the last three decades. Because of gaps in police and government reporting, the actual numbers may be much higher. Aboriginal women make up four percent of the female population. Tears4Justice is a non-profit group of grassroots volunteers, family members of missing or murdered loved ones and volunteer social activists who fight for justice on their behalf. On July 5, please join members of our community in welcoming these dedicated people

and supporting this important journey at Zion-Memorial United Church (37 Franklin St.) in Carleton Place at 6:30 p.m. Your support is greatly needed as Tears4Justice is totally reliant on volunteers and donations. For more information, please contact Erin Lee-Todd, Lanark County Interval House at 613878-5700. Sponsors for this event are: Amnesty International Canada, KAIROS: Canadian Ecumenical Justice Initiatives, Lanark County Interval House, Lanark County Neighbours for Truth and Reconciliation and the Social Concerns Committee of Carleton Place.

Development of regional economic corporation to be studied by United Counties on the possible opportunities and benefits of regional economic development. The chamber has researched out to other economic development corporations in Ontario and supports the creation of one in Leeds and Grenville. Counties and OPSEU Local 494 sign agreement Counties council has signed an agreement with its social services, child care and social housing workers represented by the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU). The two-year agreement for the OPSEU Local 494 employees provides a 1.75 per cent increase in each 2013 and 2014 along with minor modifications in the benefit plan. Stewardship council seeking support Leeds-Grenville Stewardship Council’s Karen Brown outlined ongoing projects and initiatives to counties council at its regular meeting June 20. The local stewardship council is a community-based, volunteer group focusing on environmental enhancement projects. In

SAFETY TIPS Oil Lamps: Oil lamps or lanterns provide excellent light but can be a fire hazard if placed too close to combustibles. Keep oil lamps away from combustibles and out of the wind. Make sure they are kept in a secure place where they cannot be knocked over. Refill the lamps outdoors or away from combustibles and other people.

Leeds Grenville, some of its initiatives include the Leeds Community Pasture Project, where solar-powered water sources have been created for livestock, upgrading of Kemptville Creek, tree planting, and sustainable forestry. Working with schoolchildren to increase environmental awareness and education is another key focus. A partnership with the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) was recently formed. Stewardship councils were supported by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) until April 2013. The local council is now seeking other sources of funding, said Brown. She asked counties council to consider supporting the stewardship council through funding or office space. Warden Ron Holman explained the budget for 2013 is set and Brown’s request will be considered in 2014. Campbell puts name forward to FCM Counties council is supporting Mel

Campbell, Reeve of Augusta Township, in becoming a Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) standing committee member in 2013 and 2014. Campbell and counties CAO Andy Brown said it would be advantageous to the United Counties to have a voice at the FCM, a federation which focuses on federal matters such as economic development, taxation and funding. Weed control options studied Following a recommendation from the public works committee earlier this month, counties council has asked staff to proceed with a control option study for noxious and nuisance weeds. The report will help determine effective control measures of weed infestations and a strategy to keep noxious weeds from spreading. Results from test plots, including one along County Road 28, will be included in the study. Effective weed control data from other jurisdictions will also be included in the report.

EMC News – Following are highlights of the regular United Counties of Leeds and Grenville council meeting held June 20 at the county building in Brockville. Counties council passed a resolution requesting staff to examine the feasibility of a regional economic development corporation as recommended by the Brockville and District Chamber of Commerce. Chief administrative officer (CAO) Andy Brown said there will be an investigation into any benefits, disadvantages, and costs in forming a countieswide corporation. The study, expected by November, will also ensure no duplication of services or elimination of local municipal economic development programs. The resolution comes after Brockville and District Chamber of Commerce president David Keenleyside’s June 6 presentation to the United Counties’ governance and finance committee

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR

Stop dumping trash on our rural roads DEAR EDITOR: I have noticed recently that our beautiful rural roads have become dumping grounds for almost any type of trash. I have seen mattresses, appliances, old tires, tons of discarded fast food wrappers, plastic bottles, cans, coffee cups and pretty much anything you can imagine just left or tossed on the side of the road. It seems that people just pull over, have lunch and then just drive away leaving all of their garbage behind. The litterbugs responsible for tossing trash know who you are and maybe it is time to dispose of these items at a proper designated area such as

the dump or a garbage can. I find this very disheartening and sad to see we are so fortunate to live in such a lovely scenic area that is fast becoming an eyesore littered with garbage. Please make an effort to take your garbage with you, dispose of it properly and leave our beautiful rural roads the way I enjoy seeing them, litter free. Thank you. Fran Bryerton Almonte

COMMENTARY Be alert on roads, waterways this Canada Day EMC Editorial – It’s been heralded as the official start to summer, but don’t cloud your summer before it begins with poor driving habits. The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) recently announced they will be cracking down on aggressive driving this Canada Day long weekend on roads, trails and waterways across the province. So if you are someone who is impatient or angry while driving or who tends to display colourful vocabulary while behind the wheel, listen up. Aggressive driving doesn’t just mean speeding, which could be considered one of the most common faults among drivers, but also following vehicles too closely, making improper lane changes, weaving in and out of lanes and having a general disregard for the rules of the road and waterways, will be targeted. Don’t think if you aren’t an aggressive driver that the OPP won’t be on the lookout for other poor driving habits. They will also be watching for impaired and distracted driving seatbelts, as well as ensuring you have personal flotation devices on board when boating. According to the OPP, the public awareness campaigns they have been undertaking are making a difference. At this time last year, there were 173 fatalities on roads, waterways and trails, while that number is down to 110 this year. Perhaps that shows that people are taking the law and their own lives seriously. We all have some bad driving habits we’d like to get rid of and being forced to make a change might not be a bad thing.

Father was so overworked and overtired this time of year EMC Lifestyle – Would he topple over and fall out of the rocker? Would he hit the floor with a thud, and maybe bang his head on the oven door? I was sitting at the kitchen table. I was alone. My sister Audrey said she had better things to do than waste time looking through Eaton’s catalogue. The three brothers were doing what they did every night in the summer... they were outside throwing balls, using their sling shots, or shooting off their B.B. guns. Mother was in the garden. It was just me and Father in the kitchen. The sun was still streaking through the west window, and the kitchen had been redded up, and bedtime was a couple hours away. I sat very quietly watching Father. He looked smaller, I thought. Maybe it was the way he was sleeping in the rocker. He didn’t hear his pipe fall to the floor, and the Ottawa Farm Journal lay across his knees unopened. His chin was on his chest, and I could see him breathing as his plaid shirt gently rose and fell. It had been a long day for Father. Chores were done before sun-up. The plow and other farm pieces of machinery had been moved on the stone boat

to the back fields across the Bonnechere and over the West Hill weeks before. By the time Father was finished with the morning chores, the milking done, and eaten his breakfast, he would be ready to take the team across the shallowest part of the Bonnechere and head over to the back fields. He would have picked up the basket of lunch Mother had made the night before, and we wouldn’t see him again until it was time to come back home for the evening chores. And so I sat and watched Father, and wondered if he would have enough strength left to even get out of his clothes and fall into bed. Dust from the fields still clung to his face. He had taken off his work boots and his heavy wool socks were covered in soil and bits and pieces of grass. I knew if he rolled down the legs of his overalls, there would be more of the same trapped in the folds. I could see the edge of his combination underwear showing under his plaid shirt, and I wondered if I dared go and straighten up his head, so that he would be more comfortable. But of course, that would waken him from his much Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 104

needed sleep. I wondered why he didn’t go to bed right after his supper, as I sat and watched his worn-out body curled uncomfortably in the old rocker. But then, he wouldn’t be able to check on the barns, which he never failed to do before falling into bed. No, this was Father’s routine, and nothing was going to change it this time of year. There were fields to plow and cultivate, and grain to plant, and scant time to do it in, as Father tried to outsmart the weather. And so, from dawn to dusk, Father like every other farmer around us, was tied to the habits of the season. Father wasn’t a big man. The three brothers were all taller by several inches. My brother Emerson towered over him. But Father was wiry, and as straight News Editors: Laurie Weir, Joe Morin, Ashley Kulp REPORTERS: Stacey Roy, Tara Gesner, Desmond Devoy, Kelly Kent DISTRIBUTION: Lori Sommerdyk, 613-284-0124 ,ext. 27 CLASSIFIEDS/REGIONAL ROUNDUP: Fax: 613-283-5909 Judy Michaelis Email: jmichaelis@perfprint.ca Lee Ann Gilligan Email: lgilligan@perfprint.ca Jennifer Coughlin Email: jcoughlin@perfprint.ca

as a die. As as I sat and watched him, I was scarcely breathing and making not a sound, so that I wouldn’t disturb his rest, I thought he looked so much older than he did before summer planting began. He was always so much more tired after supper this time of year. The heat of the day was heavy on him, and even though it was summer, he still wore his plaid shirts with the long sleeves. But he did give up his felt hat with the ear lugs, changing to his old battered straw hat, with the wide black headband, marred with the sweat off his brow. I sat quietly, watching Father breathe, not a muscle stirring in either of us. I was overcome with a deep sadness, as I looked at him in the rocking chair, his feet in their usual place on the turneddown oven door. And I wondered, can someone die from overwork? What if one day he didn’t come home from the back fields? What would happen to us? The sun had gone down behind the grape arbour, and the kitchen was darkening, but yet there was daylight, and I was still alone at the old pine table, Eaton’s catalogue unopened in front of me, and with my eyes never leaving Father.

He would stay there until everyone came in from outside, banging doors, and scraping their feet on the mat, and tossing their bats and balls into the box beside the stove. Mother would stop a moment in front of Father and then she would do what she did every night this time of year. She would tap Father on the shoulder...she may have to do it several times to bring him out of his deep sleep. He would slowly raise his head, and look around the kitchen as if he were lost. I would move myself away from the table and go over to the rocker and pick his pipe up off the floor, and put the Ottawa Farm Journal on the bake table. Father would shuffle over to the bedroom door off the kitchen, and he would turn to Everett and tell him to be sure to check the barns before he went to bed. Soon I would hear the creaking of the bed springs, and if I listened closely from my spot at the kitchen table, I would hear a deep sigh, and then the soft snores as Father settled down his tired body for the night. It was just another day, no different than the one before, and no different than the one coming after. • Advertising rates and terms and conditions are according to the rate card in effect at time advertising published. • The advertiser agrees that the publisher shall not be liable for damages arising out of errors in advertisements beyond the amount charged for the space actually occupied by that portion of the advertisement in which the error occurred, whether such error is due to negligence of its servants or otherwise... and there shall be no liability for non-insertion of any advertisement beyond the amount charged for such advertisement. • The advertiser agrees that the copyright of all advertisements prepared by the Publisher be vested in the Publisher and that those advertisements cannot be reproduced without the permission of the Publisher. • The Publisher reserves the right to edit, revise or reject any advertisement.

Local health unit begins weekly Upper Canada District School Board beach water sampling for summer approves budget for 2013-14 EMC News – The Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit has once again begun weekly water sampling of the area’s public bathing beaches. The beaches will be monitored weekly throughout the summer season until Aug. 30. This year the following public swimming areas will be monitored: • In Lanark County: Almonte Beach, Dalhousie Lake, Centennial Beach, Riverside Beach, Lanark Beach, Pakenham Beach, Rideau Ferry Yacht Club, Robertson Lake Beach, Smiths Falls Jr and Sr. • In Leeds and Grenville: Sand Bay Charleston Lake County Park, St. Lawrence Park, Lyn Valley Conservation Area, South Crosby Beach, Portland Campbell Street Beach, Foley Mountain Beach, Joel Stone Beach, Kendrick’s Park, Lower Beverley Township Park, Bellamy Park, Kelly’s Beach, Merrickville, Westport Sand Lake

lected from each beach. The results will then be analyzed for the presence of E. coli (Escherichia coli) bacteria. If the results exceed the bathing water standard of 100 E. coli, the beach will be posted with an “WARNING Unsafe for Bathing” sign indicating that the level of bacteria in the water may pose a risk to your health if you choose to swim. This information will appear on our website and in radio reports. This year you can also follow the beach posting results by using Facebook and Twitter. Updates will be posted Friday mornings by 9 a.m. Research has shown that when people are swimming at beaches where the water has a high E. coli level, there is a direct relationship with an increase in ear, eye, nose and throat infections in swimmers.

an information card that is available at any health unit office or township office that has a bathing beach. It is also available on our website at http://www.healthunit.org/water/resources/ Beaches_Info_Card.pdf. Bacterial water quality is one parameter used to determine water quality. Other variables, which are assessed and evaluated, are the presence of a blue green algae bloom, accidental spills that may pollute the water and any safety issue that could impact on the health of the bathers. At any time if these variables are believed to have an impact on the beach’s safety, the beach will be posted as “Unsafe for Bathing”. Posting information is available on the health unit website (http://www. healthunit.org/water/test/ beach_results.htm), on Facebook at www.facebook. com/LGLHealthUnit or on Twitter at www.twitter.com/ LGLbeaches or by calling the Health Action Line at 1-800-660-5853.

EMC News – The following are highlights from the Upper Canada District School Board’s (UCDSB) regular meeting which took place June 19 at the board office in Brockville. The UCDSB approved a budget of $345,119,287 in operating expenses and capital of $28,729,025 plus all additional amounts subsequently allocated by the ministry. Budget highlights include: • The Information Technology Services budget for 2013-14 is $5.63 million. This represents a decline of approximately $0.05 million or 0.9 per cent year over year. • The director’s office budget for 2013-14 is $2,899,336. • The proposed budget for teacher support services is $1,270,126. This allocation goes toward the salaries of staff who deliver professional learning across the district and who administrate district and ministry educational programs. • The proposed budget for programs is $12,916,058. • The proposed budget for special education 2013-14 is $45,956,395. • The trustee’s budget for 2013-14 is $424,517. Link Crew The board also received a re-

port on the impact of Link Crew on grade 9 students, grade 12 Link leaders, teacher coordinators and the culture of schools. Link Crew is an orientation and year-long program that is designed to ease the transition of grade 9 students from elementary to high school. It does this by: • Providing a welcoming and fund Orientation Day • Establishing relationships between grade 9 students and their grade 12 Link leaders • Providing a grade 12 Peer Mentoring Structure that supports academic and social success • Providing an environment of caring through Link leader connections and support • Fostering a sense of belonging • Encouraging grade 9 participation in school activities Among the qualitative findings, grade 9 students had this to say: • “Link Crew helped me not be so scared.” • “I knew that I could turn to my Link leader to get help with any problem that I might face.” • “My peer mentor helped me understand my schedule.”

While grade 12 students said: • “I developed a sense of responsibility.” • “I became a role model for grade 9 students.” • “I took the course because I wanted to make a difference.” Nine recommendations will be implemented by administration, including: • Best practices from across the board need to be shared and implemented. • Principals need to take a leadership role in communicating the importance of collective ownership of grade 9 students. • Principals should develop a timetable model that allows time for meaningful connections between grade 9 students. Use of personal electronic devices in classrooms and school The board approved the following policy: In recognition of their differing interests, abilities, personalities and learning preferences, the Upper Canada District School Board encourages its students to select and use the supplies, equipment, devices and other resources they need to learn effectively at school and at home.

Heat waves endanger millions of Ontarians living with lung disease EMC News – For the 2.4 million (one in five) Ontarians living with a serious lung disease such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or lung cancer, this week’s extreme heat isn’t just uncomfortable – it can be dangerous. The risk of experiencing serious breathing difficulties increases dramatically during extreme weather, including the severe heat forecast for this week. The effects of smog, heat and humidity can sometimes be felt well before a smog alert is issued. The lungs become more sensitive, causing flare-ups that often mean a visit to the emergency department or even a stay in hospital. Even people who do not have lung disease may experience difficulty breathing in extreme heat conditions or when smog levels are high. During very hot and humid weather, when outdoor air quality is poor, the Ontario Lung Association recommends that you: • Stay indoors in an air-conditioned place with good indoor air quality; • Keep your blinds and curtains closed to keep out the sun’s heat. At night, if you don’t have air-conditioning and outdoor air pollution is low, open your windows to let the cool air in; • Listen to air quality and humidity Submitted photo (Humidex) advisories; • Keep outdoor activity to a minimum and consider exercising indoors EMC News – The Beach House in Perth held an open cancer research. Pictured are Nancy James, Alissa in a cool, clean environment. Schedule outdoor activity at a time when heat house last month where $700 was raised for breast Ballantyne, Tracey Stead and Chrystine Moreau.

More musical tales from the belly of the big city So our wander around downtown Toronto brought us some memorable musical moments, some new friends and venues to check out again. Upcoming events Sam Ferrara pulled it off beautifully. Very tasty. As we enjoyed their set, an older woman entered, quickly quipped with the band between songs and headed further into the bar to where we were seated and asked if she could join us. At the break, as we chatted, her eyes expanded to saucers as I told her we were from Perth. Right here in the heart of multicultural Toronto, this lass tells us she grew up in Westport and still has a cabin near there. She had been up to Festival of the Maples in Perth this year and we compared notes on who we knew in common. Janet Goodfellow apparently left Westport at 18 years of age, now lives in the Kensington area, and the Rattlesnake Choir recently surprised her by playing in her home for her 70th birthday. She asked me to put in a good word (and a CD) to Seamus Cowan at the Cove Inn for Rattlesnake Choir and I’ll be doing just that. Small world… We moved on, walking up Augusta St. and turning right on College where we entered The Free Times Cafe to catch someone we’d seen many times at the Ontario Council of Folk Festival Conferences we attend. We were there to see the Russell Leon Band and were tickled upon arrival to see a musician friend we hadn’t seen in years was opening. Roman Riccio is a singer/songwriter of true musical lineage. His father Pat Riccio Jr. was musical director and keyboard player for Anne Murray and his grandfather was a wonderful saxophone player who had his own Pat Riccio Orchestra in Toronto when I was growing up. It was nice to see Roman plying his trade again, this time backed vocally by Caitlin September. It was quite enjoyable as was Russell Leon. I always feel at home in this venue though I don’t get there often. It’s always special. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention having run into a friend, one of Toronto’s longstanding promoter/publicists, not at one but three of the music events we attended. Richard Flohil was publicist for Downchild Blues Band for 39 years and was the creative genius who brought BB King to Canada for the first time as well as many other greats. I seem to run into him whenever I’m in Toronto. Case in point: When I would arrive on rare Monday nights to the Orbit Room upstairs on College in Toronto to hear Sisters Euclid, one of “guitar-for-hire” Kevin Breit’s bands who would start at 10:30 p.m., most times, there would be Richard. He often comes up to Stewart Park Festival “because he loves the intimacy of it.” He’s currently writing a book of his memoirs which I can’t wait to read. Not bad for someone being 79 years young.

Sunday, June 29: At 7:30 p.m., St. Paul’s United Church in Perth, presents an amazing 40-voice Toronto women’s choir, Cantores Celestes, who are kicking off their 25th anniversary celebrations by performing at St. Paul’s

and whose own choir director Brad Mills raves about this choir. July 19, 20, 21: The 23rd annual Stewart Park Festival in Perth. Support live music everywhere.

on the road, night after night. A bonus came when the Wailers introduced musical friends from the East Coast – Bathurst, New Brunswick – Barry Cooke on keys and vocals and Marc Doucet on guitar who added nicely to the mix and had both sat in on previous recordings. Maple Blues Award winner – Shirley Jackson joined for a few tunes on sax and vocals which was pretty sweet, too. The highlight for me though was this: Just as they were setting up, an old acquaintance strolled on in. Paul DeLong has been an indemand drummer for years and played Stewart Park Festival backing Carlos Del Junco and others, has previously played with Kim Mitchell, Doug Riley, Dominic Troiano, and Tom Scott, to name a few. In recent years he’s played musical theatre, doing the Lion King, Hairspray, Rent and Hair in the US and Canada. He shared his excitement at being there because he now teaches at Humber College, where all the Wailers met in the music program. He was so thrilled to be there to watch Lindsay and how far the band has come. I’ve seen them for the past three years and I’ve got to agree, I just can’t believe how great a sound and show these players have put together. Whew! They’re coming to Stewart Park Festival this year so you’ve got a great opportunity to catch one of Canada’s up and coming great blues bands. It was especially a treat to see Paul sit in during some of the evening when Lindsay got up to play some smoking electric guitar (hey, it was her birthday and she wanted to show us her new toy)! Jesse Whiteley sat in on keys too, which was the icing on the cake for that evening. After surviving two days of intense meetings it was great to be able to wander late Saturday afternoon from our hotel, relaxing through back streets over to a hole in the wall pub I’ve heard about for years but never had an opportunity to visit. We strolled west from the hotel and ended up in Kensington Market, one of the true epicentres of multiculturalism in all its varied colours, tastes, smells and soundscapes. Graffiti’s is on Baldwin, near Augusta, and isn’t very big but has some wonderful talent flowing through it. We lucked in on hearing Rattlesnake Choir. Actually they’re normally a five-piece but we were entertained heartily by John Borra – singer/songwriter/ guitarist who’s past has seen him doing time in the punk scene as a kid, later playing with Ron Sexsmith and Jim Cuddy’s band before heading to more independent roots interests. Fiddle-master Miranda Mulholland (Bowfire, Belle Starr, among others) also provides vocals to Borra’s lead. Now how many times do you walk into a bar and witness a percussion player pull out and effectively utilize cheese graters, a set of three slinkys or a singing saw (the edge of a bent handsaw being bowed)? Well, percussionist

EMC Lifestyle – I don’t know about you but often its unique musical moments that I remember most and on a recent trip to Toronto, I happened onto several. A relatively short streetcar ride took us from our hotel to the unique Cameron House, (northwest corner of Queen St. W and Cameron St.) where Corin Raymond & The Sundowners (Treasa Levasseur – accordion, piano, vocals; David Baxter – guitar, mandolin, vocals; Brian Kobayakawa – upright bass) were playing for their weekly 6 to 8 p.m. gig. Corin established some notoriety this past year by totally funding his latest double CD – Paper Nickels (complete with 144-page booklet outlining the caper) with Canadian Tire (CT) money. He found a recording studio willing to take CT money at par and, through an incredible response of CTC money donated from fans across the country, all via social media, including TV and radio interviews across North America, he was able to record some of his favourite songs written by like-minded musicians. Those troubadours who write, play and promote their own music wherever they can, without the luxury of record company support or radio play. Corin is a songwriter of major proportions. His last CD in 2009, entitled There Will Always Be A Small Time, was my favourite that year and I continually hear other troubadours performing his songs in their set. We were lucky to catch them as they announced this was their last Thursday gig at the Cameron for a while as they were on the road most of the summer. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the wonderful guitar work by David Baxter and all the tasty additions by Treasa and Brian. It’s always a memorable experience. While at the Cameron, I ran into Tom Parker who I’ve seen in various groups over the years including The Backstabbers, Lickin’ Good Fried and most recently Tom Parker & the American Pour. Both our roots are based in Owen Sound in that my parents used to dance to his grandparents band there in their courtship. It was in this same locale a few years ago I actually shared this historical family anecdote with my daughter and was able to introduce her to Tom. Tom introduced me to Devin Cuddy, Jim Cuddy of Blue Rodeo’s son, who I’ve heard play piano several times sitting in with other groups at the Cameron. Might I suggest you check this young man out for his own abilities because I know you’ll be as impressed as I’ve been. A quick trip got us back to Monarch’s Pub, in the Delta Chelsea (soon to become the Eaton Chelsea) where the 24th St Wailers were just back from an western Tour and ready to unwind and celebrate drummer Lindsay Beaver’s birthday. I especially love it when I’m able to catch a group just getting back from a tour because their show is usually especially tight and filled with all the great little nuances they’ve developed while

Virtually everyone has memories of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II EMC Lifestyle – It seems every year is an anniversary of some significance for Queen Elizabeth II. Hardly surprising given the fact she has been on the throne for 61 years and five months. She is Head of State of the United Kingdom and 15 other Commonwealth realms including Canada. No matter where you live I believe it is safe to say Queen Elizabeth is the most familiar face on the planet. Her lengthy reign is now closing in on the all-time record for a British monarch set by her great, great grandmother Queen Victoria who died in 1901 at age 81. Victoria reigned for 63 years and seven months. That is the longest tenure for any female monarch in history. Queen Elizabeth seems ageless. Her husband and consort Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, just turned 92. He continues to suffer through significant health problems. Although her schedule has been somewhat reduced in recent times the Queen continues to maintain a busy public life that belies her 87 years. Three weeks ago, while the Duke of Edinburgh was undergoing exploratory surgery in a London clinic, his wife visited the new headquarters of the venerable British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in Central London. I am an unashamed Monarchist. Not surprising perhaps considering that I was born the same year a young Princess Elizabeth succeeded her father King George VI who succumbed to lung cancer at the young age of 56. Like most spouses, my wife Kathleen and I don’t see eye-to-eye on every subject. She is more of a Republican than I am. In other words she is less supportive

of the institution of the monarchy. Although I believe her opinion has changed somewhat based on our many visits to the UK and the obvious importance this tradition holds for the island nation. The economic impact of the monarchy is hugely significant. Last year major celebrations were held to mark Queen Elizabeth’s ascension to the throne 60 years earlier. The exact date was Feb. 6, 1952 the day of her father’s untimely passing. The observances included a 1,000boat pageant on the River Thames in Central London. The next day there was a massively attended Diamond Jubilee concert outside Buckingham Palace, the Queen’s London residence. Hundreds of thousands packed ‘The Mall’, the main boulevard leading to the palace, wearing royal masks, waving Union flags and cheering wildly. A star-studded cast of musicians including Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Elton John (both knighted by the Queen at different times) and American singer Stevie Wonder performed and a spectacular fireworks display wrapped up the spectacular. If you like long-running anniversaries, Queen Elizabeth’s is the prototype! Coronation The year 2013 marks the 60th anniversary of her coronation. The event in 1953 was the biggest public spectacle in the British Isles since the end of the Second World War just eight years earlier. The people of Great Britain were still living on rations at the time and went to considerable trouble to hoard enough precious foodstuffs to provide for coronation cakes and celebratory meals.

Reflections BY JEFF MAGUIRE

The actual ceremony was held on June 2, 1953 at Westminster Abbey. In front of more than 8,000 guests, including prime ministers and heads of state from around the Commonwealth, Queen Elizabeth II took the coronation oath and was formally crowned. Shouts of “God Save the Queen” echoed through the streets of historic London amid the firing of salutes in honour of the big occasion. Early this month, on June 3 to be exact, a service was held at the historic abbey to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the coronation. The service included much of the music used during the service six decades earlier. I followed news coverage of the anniversary service. The 2,000 who attended the Westminster Abbey event included former choirboys and maids of honour from the original ceremony. A total of 25 members of the royal family were on hand. Obviously it is a very different royal family today. One image that particularly struck me was a newspaper photograph of the Queen beaming at her daughter-in-law Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, the wife of her eldest child and heir apparent Prince Charles. Few people will be unaware of Camilla’s role as Charles’ second wife and

the scandal that accompanied his divorce from the late, much-loved Princess Diana, the mother of his two sons. To say the least Her Majesty, the Duke of Edinburgh and most British citizens were “not amused” by the events which led up to Charles eventual marriage to Camilla. That despite the fact the ceremony was a quiet affair, held long after Princess Diana’s death in the tragic Paris automobile crash in August 1997. My, how times have changed! Despite the trials and tribulations of the royal family I think it can be fairly said that the Queen Elizabeth remains one of the most popular figures in British history. A woman who is respected, even revered, in countries around the world. Many of us, especially people like me who grew up and became much older during her long and successful reign, have their own memories of the Queen. I am an Ottawa native and therefore there were many chances to see her in person. Ottawa, the nation’s capital, has hosted so many visits by Her Majesty over the course of 60 years. Canada has been a favourite destination for the Queen. In fact she has visited Canada 24 times, the most official visits she has made to any nation in the world as queen. Her first full visit was in October 1957 and her most recent was in late June and early July 2010. For the record, if you count brief visits including refueling stops, she has been to Canada an astounding 31 times. That total includes a tour of seven provinces in 1951 on behalf of her ailing father while she was still Princess Elizabeth. I have seen her in person twice in Ottawa. I vividly remember standing in

front of Rideau Hall in October 1964 with my parents and two of my three siblings (my youngest sister wasn’t born yet) and seeing the smiling Queen as her limousine drove slowly past. We were standing near the main gate of the Governor General’s official residence. Her 1964 tour was held despite threats made against her by the Quebec-based separatist organization which went by the acronym FLQ. Undeterred, the Queen came to Canada anyone albeit amid tight security. In the 1970s (October 1977 I believe) Kathy and I saw the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh while we were attending an Ottawa Rough Riders (Canadian Football League) game at Lansdowne Park. We had a very good look at her, through binoculars, as she dutifully sat through the first half of the Rough Riders’ game at Lansdowne Park during yet another visit to Ottawa. Something tells me she isn’t a big CFL fan? No matter what you think of the Queen and the monarchy it is impossible to ignore the fact that she is an iconic figure whose reign covered nearly half the 20th Century and has extended well into the 21st, the so-called “New Millennium.” Given her apparent good health, there is a strong likelihood she will eclipse Queen Victoria’s reign. I’m sure many of you have personal memories of Queen Elizabeth II? I would be pleased if you would share them with me by email. Your memories might even make another column!

Healthy Living Festival draws thousands to downtown Smiths Falls EMC News - More than 2,000 people flocked to Smiths Falls on Saturday, June 22, for the Downtown Business Association’s (DBA) inaugural Healthy Living Festival. The day started off with the Little Thing Run, organized by the Spring Fling Running Thing founder, Corey Turnbull. More than 50 children aged 10 and under raced their hearts out for a 500-metre and 1 km run through Smiths Falls. The Healthy Living Ambassador winner was announced during the opening ceremonies. The ambassador was created to recognize the individual who best promoted a healthy lifestyle in their community. The competition was open to not only Smiths Falls residents, but residents throughout Lanark County. “We want to recognize the people who are helping others to become more healthy, through education, nutrition, exercise…you name it,” said Amy Hogue, DBA coordinator and festival chair. “They are providing a service to their community.” Nominees Brian Paquette, from Zendragon Martial Arts and Fitness, Darlene MacLachlan, from Yoga and Wellness Studio, and David Hoffman turned out to congratulate the winner, Corey Turnbull. The festival committee received many nominations, and the decision was difficult, but Turnbull was selected due to his outstanding contribution to community fitness. Turnbull not only started the Spring Fling Running Thing, but is also partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters Lanark County to provide free running shoes to kids in need and instruction on running. The Cardio Move-a-Thon was

another big hit at the festival, with approximately 100 people turning out to take part in this two hour fundraiser for Heart & Stroke. Twelve instructors from Ottawa, Lanark County and Smiths Falls led participants through exercise routines, challenging them to keep moving for a full 120 minutes. More than $5,000 was raised for Heart & Stroke during the event, with the top prize going to the Cardio Fit 4 Life team, who single handedly raised $2,000. Other hits at the festival were the vendors lining Beckwith Street North, the rock climbing wall, face painting, a fire juggler and a Gym Stars Gymnastics Club demonstration. Brian Paquette from Zendragon Martial Arts & Fitness, performed a glass walk on the hour every hour throughout the festival, drawing crowds of people to witness this feat. The Smiths Falls Police Association partnered with the Health Unit and the Free Methodist Church to run a Bike Rodeo. Participants in the Bike Rodeo were given the opportunity to have a helmet check and learn about bike safety. Festival organizers said community support was incredible during and following the event and members of the public were very supportive of the event, expressing their thanks to the committee for bringing the event to Smiths Falls. The Healthy Living Festival committee members are already making plans for next year’s event, which will take place on June 21, 2014, in downtown Smiths Falls. “Next year will be bigger and better,” Hogue said. “This event is here to stay.” Submitted by the Town of Smiths Falls

Dealership donates community cruiser to OPP By DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com

kind of community event vehicle… (they) asked me if I wanted to partner (with them),” said LeBlanc. While he was glad to donate the community cruiser, he was also glad that it was the OPP that dealt with the lion’s share of the paperwork. “I think there was a fair bit of paperwork,” said LeBlanc. “I’m happy to do it. It’s fun to partner with them.” Even though the donation by Hyundai is acknowledged on the side of the vehicle, police lights will be installed on it if it is ever needed for an emergency, as well as police radios, a note on the side of the car still bears the notice that it is operated by the OPP. The community cruiser was already in

service at the Beckwith Heritage Days, and later that week at the Perth Kilt Run. It will also be used at the Stewart Park Festival next month. “We are very grateful to Smiths Falls Hyundai,” said OPP Const. Dave Blair, a community service officer who has already taken the cruiser out and about. “It’s a chance for us to thank Steve for his goodness and his kindness. It will be an enormous asset.” While LeBlanc was glad just to help out, the boys in blue driving the car also helped with a bit of cross promotion. “It would be some good exposure for us and the vehicle,” said LeBlanc. “It’s good for both of us.”

Community builders honoured last weekend included (from the left) skip of the SFDCI curling team of 1980, Roger Bell; Neil MacDonald, of the Old Suds hockey team with Mayor Dennis Staples; Karen Tye Vaillancourt with Staples who is a long-time sports participant both playing and refereeing, and Betty Wynne (left) with Staples. Wynne accepted the award on behalf of her late father Bill Weston. The Smiths Falls man was on the Kirkland Lake curling team that won the Canadian championships in 1950.

TOWN including curling. In 1950 the Kirkland Lake Curling Club formed a team consisting of skip Tom Ramsay, vice Len Williamson, second Bill Weston and lead Bill Kenny. The team won the right to represent Northern Ontario in the MacDonald Brier held in Vancouver, then went on to win the coveted Canadian championship. Weston returned to Smiths Falls in retirement where he was active in town affairs and remained an avid curler. The Weston family was represented at the induction ceremony by daughter Betty Wynne, who recalled that she was 12 years old when the team won the

championship. “It took four good men to do it, and I knew all of them personally,� she said. The 1980 SFDCI Ontario School Boy Team curling champions are credited with inspiring a new generation of young curlers thanks to their highlysuccessful season. The team, consisting of skip Roger Bell, third Peter MacKinnon, second Todd Stanzel and lead Dale Dixon, dominated all competition with wins at the divisional and eastern finals, provincial, Lanark County and Eastern Ontario (EOSSAA) championships. “We certainly had a great time. We had a great run,� said Bell, representing the team at the induction ceremony.

Guests at the ceremony were reminded that Smiths Falls’ new community centre will be hosting the Dominion Tankard Men’s Curling Championship Jan. 27 to Feb. 2, 2014. The Dominion Tankard is the premier men’s curling event for Ontario, and determines the Ontario provincial entry in the Tim Hortons Brier. “It’s unusual for them to be in a town of our size,� said Paul Howard. “The reason it’s here is because of this arena.� Howard said 150 people have already signed up to volunteer for the event. “This is going to be probably the largest sporting event that we’ve held here,� he added.

First phase of new Smiths Falls subdivision could begin early 2014 By DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com

EMC News – Phase one of Smiths Falls’ newest subdivision could begin construction in early 2014. Smiths Falls town council’s committee-of-thewhole (COW) meeting heard on Monday, June 24, that papers had been submitted to the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) and the IBI Group about the Belle Mead Farm subdivision behind Ferrara Meadows. IBI will be conducting the peer review of the traffic study. A draft of the proposal will be ready for July, with final draft approval of the plans done by the end of summer. The first phase will comprise of 96 apartments/ condos, with the remainder of the property being made up of 137 single-family homes, 30 semi-detached homes, and 32 town houses.

Waste management lands On a related land matter, COW also discussed what to do with waste management lands the town owns. In the early 1990s, Lanark County managed to get a number of municipalities on board with purchasing land for waste management purposes. “That project never really materialized,” said chief administrative officer Steve Fournier. “The county itself was not going to develop it.” Council now faces several proposals for the land, known as the 5N property, including leaving it as is, or selling it. “Is there an advantage to maintaining ownership?” asked Fournier. “To get rid of this project at first glance could be short sighted,” said Coun. Jay Brennan. “This property would be a good insurance policy for the future,” such as when the Carp dump is closed, he added.

“It (the land) was predicated on the premise that landfill sites would fill up,” continued Brennan. “A significant amount of investment has already been made into this. It would be prudent for the partners to keep this.” Coun. Ken Graham agreed with Brennan that forward planning was needed on this land. “At some point in future, the town of Smiths

Falls and other areas are going to need a site like this,” said Graham. “Where does the waste go if everybody makes it and nobody wants it? We still have sites here that are at the brim. It’s only going to be a bigger issue.” Council heard that the land was being used for agricultural use at the moment. “We will coordinate our efforts” on the issue, promised Fournier.

New arts and culture program begins at SFDCI in the fall By LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com

EMC News - The Upper Canada District School Board announced the approval of four new Specialist High Skills Major (SHSM) programs at four secondary schools for the 2013-14 school year. At Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute, the new Arts and Culture program will be introduced in the fall, but this summer, between eight and 10 students are taking a co-op placement to prepare, as this is part of the program. “We’re really excited to be able to offer this. Art students will have this new focus,� said Gord Cooke, principal at SFDCI. Cooke said there were about 20 interested students in the program which is a comprehensive study of arts, drama and culture. Students in this program are required to earn four arts and culture

major credits, one English credit and one business studies credit or Canadian and world studies which are adapted to focus on the arts and culture. “Our arts department has always been strong,â€? Cooke said. “And with our musical and so many kids involved‌ it really is a big production. This will allow those students to really focus on this course and it’s not just a rubber stamp (on their diploma), but a viable alternative.â€? SFDCI is no stranger to the high skills programs, as hospitality was introduced in the school two years ago. Unlike the hospitality program, the arts and culture program will be taught by a team of educators. “It is a team effort,â€? Cooke said. Leading the charge will be Kristine MacLaren, head of the department, along with Anita Mitra who is the drama and visual arts teacher.

The process to obtain this new high skills program took about six months to complete, noted the principal, after the initial application was submitted to the Ministry of Education. Guidance counsellors were then trained to educate the participants through the courses needed to be successful with this program. According to the ministry’s website, students will also earn two cooperative education credits to gain workplace experience that enables students to refine, extend and practice sector-specific knowledge and skills. They will also be subject to experiential learning, career exploration.

EMC Events - Healthy Living Festival was a huge hit for the first year. These are just some of the happenings around town on June 22. Clockwise from the top left, what started out as more than 80 participants in the Cardio Move-a-Thon dwindled down to this group of participants who were able to stick it out for the full two-hour period; Jonathan Lockhart, a busker from The Cow Guys, was a big hit at the festival. Lockhart not only juggled fire (shown here) but also performed balancing feats and rode a teeny tiny bicycle to engage the crowds; Cardio Fit 4 Life was recognized by Heart & Stroke as the team that raised the most funds, more than $2,000 of the $5,000 raised by the event.

Looking Back 100 YEARS AGO - JUNE 24, 1913

The soldier boys came home on Friday and before disbanding marched downtown led by the regimental band and the Smiths Falls band. They looked well after their stay in camp and made quite an imposing parade. The cadet company, in connection with the Collegiate Institute, will parade downtown Friday evening at 7.15 o’clock. The company is 70 strong and handsome new uniforms have just been procured for them. The annual lawn social given by the St. Francis de Sales church on Thursday and Friday evenings of last week was the most successful one ever held. The grounds about the church were nicely decorated and brilliantly illuminated and all the enterprises to be found as such places were going full blast. 50 YEARS AGO - June 27, 1963 Work at the new federal building in Smiths Falls resumed on Tuesday morning following an eight-day shut-down caused by a carpenter’s strike. Although the dispute is not settled as yet, men went back on the job following a verbal agreement made during a court hearing held in Ottawa on Monday.

Remember When

An estimated 1,500 spectators filled the grandstand at Memorial Community Centre to enjoy some of the finest band music heard here in some time and to watch an outstanding display of precision drill. The occasion was the second annual Musical Revue, sponsored by the OYB Lampliters Drum Corps.

We take another trip back to 1943 this week and a photo of a well bundled-up little boy in front of C.S.

A feminist’s recipe for democracy

Many hundred of camera fans and railroad buffs stormed the CPR station on Sunday afternoon to examine at close range two highly interesting locomotives. One was a famed relic of the past and the other was one of the newest engines on the line. Causing the greatest attention was the huge steam engine that pulled the Royal Train across Canada and back in 1939.

EMC Lifestyle – Last week I attended the Communications Energy and Paperworkers (CEP) women’s conference. It was an opportunity to share experiences and strategize on how to protect and advance the rights of women in the workplace, the home and the community. While the women of CEP were involved in our final conference, with invited guests from CAW as well as internationally, we had the opportunity to support some other union employees who have been on strike for eight weeks. The strike by elevator workers was happening just down the street from where we were staying. So we walked the picket line with them for a half-hour or so, showing our support. Here’s the kicker. The elevator in our hotel got stuck the following day for 35 minutes! There were a number of our fellow ‘sisters’ inside. Some had to be medically treated. Not cool. Thankfully, I wasn’t in the elevator, but I did have a bit of a phobia for the rest of the conference. It’s a good thing no babies were sched-

25 YEARS AGO - June 29, 1988 The town will clean up garbage at the former Justus property and bill the owner, Mayor Laurence Lee said Monday. Mayor Lee said he had received a letter Monday morning from Bargain Mart owner Brain Martineau complaining about trash accumulating and rowdiness at the Beckwith Street property. With the 1988 Settlers Days celebration just two days away, event chairman Mark Beveridge said the schedule is set and things are looking good for this year’s event to be one of the best ever. The three day event officially gets underway at 1:30 p.m. just before the Canada Day concert on the Smiths Falls District Collegiate football field. 10 YEARS AGO - June 25, 2003 It was another record relay in Lombardy. The fourth annual Relay for Life — a non-competitive 12-hour team fund-raiser organized by the Lanark, Leeds and Grenville Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) — set new marks in terms of participation and dollars. Held overnight Friday/ Saturday, June 20 and 21 at the Lombardy Agricultural Fairgrounds, the Relay attracted more than 1,300 participants on 142 teams who collected in excess of $315,000.

She’s about to have a baby at any moment, and that could have been her breaking point, as she was supposed to accompany me on this conference. Speaking of babies, discussions surrounded women’s rights at this conference and the rights of women to choose (regarding child bearing issues), and that of parents to have children and continue to contribute to the work force. These topics were high on the agenda and involved some lively discussion. Did you know that the average child care costs in Ontario are $25 a day? I had no clue, not being a parent, but I was astounded to hear some of the input. Like in Quebec for instance, child care is subsidized. Parents pay about $7 per child.

Why is this not happening in Ontario? Saturday, our conference ended with Mary Walsh of This Hour has 22 Minutes fame, who led a parade of apron-clad, rolling-pin-wielding women (and some men) to Parliament Hill. “From the time they were elected in 2006, the Harper Conservatives have made women’s lives more difficult and more dangerous by systematically attacking women’s rights,” said Jennifer Britton, chair of the CEP National Women’s Committee. “It’s a long list of roll backs – from cuts to childcare funding, to status of women office closures, to the elimination of the gun registry, and more.” During the conference we also heard from MPs Megan Leslie and Rosane Dore Lefebvre, and from other keynote speakers on aboriginal issues, reproductive rights, and childcare. Walsh addressed the conference on Saturday morning and set the tone for a ‘March of Aprons’ to Parliament Hill. Delegates made their point in a visual way. I need to find that rolling pin. And take the stairs.

The meeting, which was held over breakfast at Fulton’s Pancake House in Pakenham, covered the accomplishments of the corporation over the last year. Valley Heartland CFDC is a not-forprofit organization run by a volunteer board of directors and aims to improve the communities of Lanark and North Leeds by providing business loans, counseling and coaching along with supporting development and strategic planning. Susan Fournier, the corporation’s executive director, gave a presentation outlining the company’s progress throughout the year and unveiled three new pilot programs that they will roll out this coming year.

CARD OF THANKS

Desjardine Antoine Joseph “A.J.” Desjardine

50TH WEDDING CELEBRATION The venue was one of love and warmth, a reflection of the many wonderful family gatherings we have celebrated over the years, evident of much planning and a very artistic hand. At this time our hearts overflow with so many great memories that have made up our lives. We were privileged to have in attendance Roy’s mom Muriel and our dear family friend Mary Moss who was such an intricate part of our wedding day, fifty years ago. For the special touches; display of wedding dress, replica of wedding cake, the montage of photos, the unique guest book – records, the banner and so much more –thank you. For the great music, our friend Peter McKenna’s introduction, sisters-in-law for the great food, our SFDCI hospitality students, Tim Turner and Tayler Hughes for serving and setting up the buffet (a great job well done). To family, friends, the many nieces and nephews, greats and great-greats (our newest Baby Jacob Moulton) who attended. To our daughters and grand-daughters for their sweet kind words of acknowledgement. To all who attended. For the hugs, handshakes and good wishes, the many cards and special greetings awaiting us in our mailbox. Thank you. So to our children, Jamie & Sherry, Kelly & Douglas, Robin & Shawna, Pamela & David, Krikit & Ian, thank you for your love and friendship and for our awesome grandchildren who fill up our lives and keep us young at heart. Love forever and always Mom & Dad (Roy & Gladys Craig)

ASHTON, Arthur – In loving memory of my husband who passed away June 29, 2011. You knew I would miss you and tried so hard to stay, But the hardest thing I ever had to do is to be here alone without you day after day. I find myself just sitting and I look over at your chair, And I almost think I can really see you still sitting there. Life for you was getting hard and I know you had to go, As many years of failing health was really taking its toll. Please God put your arms around him and tell him how much I care, And how I look so forward to being with him up there. So for now, I carry on, as our family needs me, and I know they miss you too, But one by one someday we will all be together with you. To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. Miss you Love You Forever, Your Wife, Helen Beaupre

IN MEMORIAM

JUBY, Dale – In precious memory of my darling husband Dale who walked through Heaven’s Gate June 24th, 2012. The moment that you died, My heart split in two, The one side filled with memories, The other died with you. I often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep, And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, But missing you is a heartache that never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart, and there you will remain, Life has gone on without you, but it never will be the same. Sometimes I think I’m dreaming I can’t believe it’s true If I could have a lifetime wish A dream that would come true I would pray with all my heart For yesterday and you Until we meet again, Forever and always, your loving wife and friend, Diane

GUTKNECHT, Eric Leslie William June 25, 2010 of Kemptville. We thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday, and the day before that, too. We think of you in silence, we often say your name, But all we have are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake, with which we’ll never part. God has you in His keeping, we have you in our heart. We shed tears for what might have been, a million times we’ve cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still, In our heart you hold a place, no one could ever fill. It broke our heart to lose you, but you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you, the day God took you Home.

Miller’s Bay Farm gears up for strawberry season, launches food box program EMC News – Imagine picking strawberries in a tranquil setting with the Rideau Canal just a stone’s throw away, or picking up a food box brimming with fresh produce, grown by people you know by name. At Miller’s Bay Farm, this is reality. Miller’s Bay Farm, located on Rideau Ferry Road, offers locally-grown, farm fresh produce for every season. The family has been farming for four generations and the farm’s road-side stand has become a landmark over the years. “We were both raised on a farm and we appreciate that lifestyle,” said owner Shannon Miller, who operates the farm with her husband, Robert, and their four children. “We’re delighted to raise our children in the same environment.” Miller’s Bay Farm is currently on the cusp of strawberry season – and it’s shaping up to be a banner one. This year has yielded twice as many strawberries to feast on, Miller said. With the season starting now, the pick-your-own operation is ready to welcome families and strawberry enthusiasts of all ages. Of course, there are also pre-picked strawberries ready to enjoy, too. “We’re really pleased with the way the patch is looking,” she said. The Miller’s Bay Farm berry patch is unique in that the pick-your-own fields are beautifully back-dropped by the Rideau Canal. “Families are more than welcome – we encourage families to make memories with us and experience picking here,” she said, adding that strawberry picking is a great way to establish the food-to-plate connection with children. To continue the tradition of sharing their locally-grown produce, Miller’s Bay Farm is launching a food box program this year. Miller said the family decided to add the new program to the mix as it was requested by customers and is beneficial on numerous levels. “It’s a good way for people to expand their food horizons,” she said. The program works so that customers pre-pay to pick up a weekly box of freshly-harvested produce. Beginning the first week of July, the box will host an assortment of what is in season each AUCTIONS

week for 15 weeks. “We’re keeping it simple, but due to the nature of farming, we won’t know ahead of time what types of produce will be in the basket each week,” Miller said, noting the weekly change of produce also adds an element of anticipation. She said participating in the food box program allows for a built-in cost savings for the customer when comparing it to the foodstand prices. “This way, new customers also get a good taste of all the things available from our farm,” Miller said. But travelling to the farm isn’t the only option for enjoying fresh produce grown close to home. For the third year, a Miller’s Bay Farm produce stand will be conveniently located in Perth in front of Penny’s Pit Stop Restaurant on Highway 7 east. “We have a lot of customers from Perth and although the farm is only a few minutes out of town, we thought it would be beneficial to bring our produce closer, to serve our customers,” Miller said. The stand will be at that location starting when strawberries become available and continuing throughout the summer. The Miller’s Bay Farm stand is unique in Perth as it provides produce that is grown only 12-kilometres from its location – further driving home the aspect of local food.

Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society private garden tour July 6 EMC Lifestyle – Once upon a time there were six enchanted gardens. These gardens were the home of magical creatures, plants and objects, and all was wonderful. Until, that is, a wicked sorceress cast a spell that caused the animals to be turned to stone and the objects to lose their powers. The plants were sad at this and, while continuing on with their lives, they no longer danced in the light of the sun and the moon. But then, it was decreed that on the

magical date of July 6, a group of brave gardeners would set forth to find the magical creatures and objects in the gardens and only by finding all 12 would the spell be broken and the gardens returned to their former joy. Are you one of these brave gardeners? All you need to do is contact Mark Stevens at 613-928-2652 or mkbjstevens@ripnet.com to purchase a $15 ticket that will open the gates to the six gardens and to a chicken barbecue

at Delta fairgrounds too, once you’ve completed your task. The gardens will be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on July 6. Barbecue and prizes to follow. Come join in the fun for the return of the Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society’s tour of private gardens in the township, scavenger hunt and chicken barbecue. Coming up on July 3 is the regular monthly meeting of the Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society at the Portland Community Hall at 7:15 p.m. This

month’s guest speaker is Carol Dunk, master gardener and past president of the Ontario Horticultural Society. Carol will present Internet gardening spots, a great trip down the garden path for a rainy day. Monthly meetings are free to members, with membership a mere $15 a year. Non-members pay a $5 entry fee for each meeting, making the annual membership a real deal! Come join us! Submitted by the Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society.

Nominations now being accepted for Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation scholarship EMC News – Canada has one of the highest reported prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the world and 20 to 30 per cent of people with IBD are diagnosed before the age of 20. To support Canadian students living with IBD and raise awareness about this chronic disease, the AbbVie IBD Scholarship Program is accepting nominations from young people living with IBD. In partnership with the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of Canada (CCFC), the AbbVie IBD Scholarship Program is designed to award students who are living well with IBD, and strive to sustain an optimal level of wellness allowing them to excel while inspiring others to do the same. Through an unrestricted educational grant by AbbVie, CCFC will extend seven one-time scholarships of up to $5,000 CAN to students living with IBD who are entering into or are currently attending a post-secondary educational institution. Students of all ages are welcome to apply and the scholarship can be used for any Canadian post-secondary institution.

“I am committed to living each day to the fullest and I’m so grateful to the CCFC and AbbVie for giving me the opportunity and inspiration to push harder and help me excel at my academic goals,” says Clinton Shard, one of seven 2012 “gutsy” scholarship winners. “While the monetary scholarship provides an incentive, it also represents an investment in assisting students living with IBD and helping us achieve our dreams.” Through initiatives such as the scholarship program, AbbVie aims to continue accelerating the recognition of the burden of IBD and help further the global dissemination of evolving approaches to better care for people living with IBD. “AbbVie is proud to partner again this year with CCFC for the AbbVie IBD Scholarship Program. This initiative is a great example of a partnership that makes a difference in people’s lives,” states Felipe Pastrana, general manager of AbbVie Canada. “While our name, AbbVie, has changed – our commitment to the IBD community endures. Over THE EMC - 36 - Thursday, June 27, 2013

the years, AbbVie has shown continued commitment to people living with IBD by helping organizations and health care providers alike better understand the impact of these diseases on people’s lives. AbbVie recognizes the need for better disease diagnosis and monitoring to help improve the lives of millions of people affected by this chronic and debilitating disease.” IBD incidence rates on rise Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, is a group of disorders that causes the intestines to become inflamed and ulcerated. This is caused by an abnormal response of the body’s immune system. A recent survey conducted by the CCFC found that 69 percent of people who had IBD when they were young were delayed in completing their postsecondary education. Eighty-nine per cent who had IBD as a child felt that they could have achieved more at school without their disease. Since there is currently no known cure or cause, young people need strategies to achieve their best long-term health despite their diagnosis.

Scholarship details The AbbVie IBD Scholarship Program, in partnership with CCFC, is designed for applicants of any age entering into or attending a Canadian-based post-secondary institution. Applicants must be: • A legal and permanent resident of Canada; • Diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease by a physician; • Seeking an associate’s, undergraduate, or graduate degree from a Canadian university; college; or enrolled in a trade school educational program; Enrolled in or awaiting acceptance from a Canadian-based post-educational institution for the fall semester of 2013; and A student who demonstrates academic aspiration and strives to sustain an optimal level of wellness in spite of their IBD, allowing them to excel to reach their personal and academic goals and inspiring others to do the same.

Pipe bands bring back memories

DEAR EDITOR: “Notes from the geriatric department.” Today’s (Saturday’s) pipe band concert in Lower Reach Park brought back memories. In the 1930s, I was a child growing up in Montreal. My father was Regimental Sergeant Major of the Black Watch reserve. Each Christmas we went to the armory on Bleury Street for a party. The pipe band would parade along all the rows of tables. It was wonderful. Sadly dad went active in September 1939 and I saw him again in 1945. My wife was a girl growing up on Malta during WWII. Regularly pipe bands would parade through the streets of Valetta and Floriana. Malta, during the war, was an English colony and an important submarine base. It is credited with sinking German supply ships, ultimately driving Rommel out of North Africa. Kirk Everett

Jewels of Smiths Falls opens new location in Perth By DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com

EMC Business – Just as “littles” need big brothers and sisters, so too did the Jewels Gently Used Clothing Store in Smiths Falls need a “little” to make it a chain. So, the Jewels location in Perth was born, and its new location at 48 Wilson St. was celebrated with a grand opening on Thursday, June 13.

“We are very, very, very grateful for everything that they bring in,” said store manager Michelle Baitley of the generosity of Perth residents, with donations to help raise funds for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County (BBBS). “It is quality stuff. We are just blessed, blessed, blessed.” The Perth location had been located at 37B Foster St., but after three years they moved on May 21, because of bet-

ter access, more room, better visibility, as well as good foot traffic on the way in to the Metro supermarket. “Wives will come in and say, ‘My husband is in shopping at Metro so I

thought I’d come in,’” said Baitley. “We are always in need of volunteers,” said BBBS executive director Jennifer Miller. With the sister store having been founded in Smiths Falls about a

decade ago, Miller noted that the store is handy not only in raising money for her organization, but also in “very helpful in recruiting. “We have great traffic here.”

Former students reminisce with favoured teacher, some 60 years later By TONIA KELLY

Photos by TONIA KELLY

Teacher Ralph Greenhorn and student Carol (Bonisteel) King enjoy a reunion after some 60 years. Greenhorn taught 20 years in Smiths Falls. Carol (Bonisteel) King, has a vivid memory of her first sight of Greenhorn. “For one thing he was such a goodlooking chap, all the girls had a crush on him, and I remember that first day of school with his navy blazer, grey flannels and a striped tie, he made an impression as soon as he walked in the door.” She also remembered his academic skills, noting that every day they had to parse a sentence, and write threesentence paragraphs. She and others remembered rigorous training in the

multiplication tables, and a math formula that they recite to the present day: “If three bananas cost 20 cents, then eight bananas would cost eight times 20 divided by three. We had that memorized – the bottom left times the top right divided by the top left.” Catherine (Butters) McLean credited Greenhorn for leading her around the blind spots in math. “I struggled with math until I got to Grade 7; I’d be in tears over math. After I had him, from then on in high school, I got very good

marks. The same with English, he was an amazing teacher, he set me on the right road, I think. He gave us confidence, and he was a good-looking guy!” Catherine Hommersen remembered his grammar lessons. “Mr. Greenhorn was the best grammar teacher I have ever had. The one thing I remember is, after lunch every day, he’d walk into the classroom and say, ‘Please open your Using Our Language book at such-andsuch a page.’ He was fantastic. It was an excellent legacy that Mr. Greenhorn left with us.” Another former student, Jim Harrison, remembers a good group of kids, and the teacher “who kept a lot of us on the straight and narrow, we didn’t want him to hear bad things about us,” he said. “He was good with us and (because of him), I think, we all went on to achieve things that may have been above us.” Leonard Jackson was one of the several students inspired to become teachers themselves. “I taught for 34 years and you get one of those great classes, if you’re lucky, once in your lifetime. It’s sort of special that he thinks we were that class for him.” Although the former students would meet occasionally and Greenhorn’s name usually came up in their discussions, Edwards said, “No one seemed to know where he was, what was happening, but we all had a connection to him.” Carol King decided to remedy this and, after several false starts and a little help from Google, she found him hiding in plain sight in Perth. Eventually she got

everyone organized, and they arranged to take him to lunch in recognition of his contributions to their lives. All the happy memories of Greenhorn began tumbling out when “the kids,” some with their spouses, began arriving at Greenhorn’s home in Perth at 10 a.m. June 19, recognizing (or not recognizing) one another. The reminiscing continued during the restaurant lunch until well after 3 p.m., with digital cameras clicking continuously. After lunch Greenhorn presented gifts to King, and to his two daughters, Beth and Shari. Beginning his after-lunch remarks to his students, he paid solemn tribute to absent friends, fondly remembering students who had died young, along with words of guidance to those first students who had come to honour him, the kind of words that no doubt inspired them all those years ago and motivated them to live up to their potential. Being retired in Perth, Greenhorn lives not far from the farm where he was born and raised in Phillipsville, near Toledo, and not far from where he himself attended a one-room school house in Phillipsville and then Athens High School. Beginning with his first class in Brighton, his career spanned more than 40 years, with 22 years teaching at three different schools in North York. He spent the last 20 years before retirement at Smiths Falls District Collegiate. See FORMER page SF16

Planting the seeds for a welcoming community R0012060444_0516

EMC News - The year 1952 remains golden in the memories of a group of students from Brighton Public School who welcomed a new teacher, Ralph Greenhorn, to their Grade 7 class. On June 19, 2013, 21 from that original class and a subsequent Grade 8 class, came from Brighton, Nepean, Pickering, Belleville, Kingston, Calabogie, Niagara Falls, Bowmanville, Peterborough, Stouffville, Trenton and Rosemeath, to honour their former teacher with lunch at a restaurant in Perth – more than 60 years later. In his early 20s, Greenhorn was less than 10 years older than his students and he speaks of them as one would speak of old friends who supported him through his first challenging year. “I remember that Grade 7 class in particular,” he recalls, “I think, because it was my first class where I was in sole charge of about 27 students and I had nobody to turn to, only the good Lord . . . They were so kind, so good, it was the type of class where I could have gone out in the hall and read a book as long as they had work to do, they would be doing it.” Teaching this particular group was a confidence builder. “It said to me, ‘Look you can do it.’ It was a class who came, it seemed, ready to learn, and I was ready to teach.” In those early years, Greenhorn taught mainly English and science, but other subjects as well, always looking for and encouraging creative sparks in his students: “Basically you can either hear it or see it,” he said. “So, if I’m seeing something that is consistently good over a period of time, then there’s an ability in there.” During an art class in that first year, he walked up and down the aisles reviewing the work of the students and noticed one student working on an intricate piece of artwork. “He was really concentrating,” said Greenhorn. “I said, ‘Francis, don’t you ever give this up.’ That’s all I needed to say . . . because when you do a good piece of work, you know pretty well it’s a good piece of work, (but) when your teacher tells you . . . that meant so much more.” Frank Edwards of Kingston was that student. After attending the Ontario College of Art, Edwards became a medical artist illustrator in the anatomy department of Queen’s University and at the Kingston General and Hotel Dieu hospitals. For many years, he was also the political cartoonist with the Kingston daily. An accomplished artist whose work is in many private collections, his paintings are on display at the Gallery Raymond in Kingston. Edwards recalled the special attention he received from his Grade 7 teacher when, at the age of 12 or 13, he had sent in “one of those little things in the back of comic books,” and won a scholarship to the Chicago School of Art. It wasn’t feasible at that age to pack up and move to Chicago, but he was excited and showed the letter of offer to Greenhorn. “He told me to wait until recess, together we walked up the street,” Edwards recalled. “He read the letter, talked about it, he took it seriously, and that really meant a lot. What always impressed me was that never once did he talk down to me. It’s very important to someone of that age. I always remembered that and I’ve tried to remember never to talk down to young people.” Another of those Grade 7 students,

EMC News - COPA For Kids aviation program provides a motivational aviation experience,

Throughout his career and in the years since, Greenhorn holds to a core conviction: “In teaching it’s triangular as far as I’m concerned,� he said, “the parents, the student and the teacher. The motto above that should be: ‘You can’t do it alone, you are needed, but you have to know that you’re just part of it, you’re only one-third.’� A spiritual man, Greenhorn brushes aside any

notion of personal credit for the honours heaped initiating young people to the science of flight. These children had opportunity last weekupon him on his special day. “I was performing a duty, an act, a job, caring end at the local airport to learn more about aviation and even fly in an airplane. They are for young people, but I didn’t write my own Kohle Harriss, Bryce and Spencer Harriss, Emma Kroll, Haley and Hanna Harriss. evaluation. The observers wrote that.

Little leaguers are stars

Board honours SFDCI teacher for rugby coaching prowess EMC Sports - A guidance teacher who led South Grenville District High School’s (SGDHS) senior girls rugby team to four regional championships has been honoured with an Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) Leadership in School Sport Award for girls rugby. Jacob Swarbrick, a guidance councillor who now works at Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute (SFDCI), was honoured with the award on June 4 at the OFSAA Senior Girls Rugby Championship in Waterloo for his 12 years of coaching in the high school sport. He was presented with a custom OFSAA men’s watch. “It was a shock to me,� said Swarbrick in a recent interview. “It seemed a little early in my teaching and coaching career but it’s nice to have the recognition and I think it’s also good for the sport in the area.� Swarbrick credited his success to coaches he has worked with in his teaching career including Brockville Collegiate Institute (BCI) football coach Peter Atkinson and former Gananoque Secondary School football coach Randy Ruttan. Both men taught him the value of sport in teaching players to set goals and encouraging them to achieve those goals, making students better people in the process. The teacher has been involved with the sport for 24

years. He has earned success as a coach both with the South Grenville senior boys and senior girls teams during his time at South Grenville from 2006 until his transfer to SFDCI in February 2013. He led the school’s senior boys teams to seven straight Leeds and Grenville Secondary Schools Athletic Association (LGSSAA) championships, while he won four championships coaching the senior girls. In 2004, he won LGSSAA championships coaching senior boys football, senior boys basketball and senior girls rugby while at Brockville Collegiate Institute. This year, he went above and beyond for high school rugby – starting a senior boys and girls program at SFDCI while still coaching at South Grenville. He spent the season coaching from 2:30 to 4 p.m. at SFDCI, then drove to South Grenville to coach from 5 to 7 p.m. Both the SGDHS senior boys and senior girls teams went to OFSAA this year. When he is not coaching high school sports, he coaches boys and girls U-18 rugby for the Brockville Privateers. He is married to wife Dulcie, an athlete who plays women’s rugby in Brockville. The couple has one son, Joshua, a secondyear police foundations student at Durham College. Submitted by the UCDSB.

Remembering a community builder EMC Sports - Pictured above is a picture of the Lowe family about to enjoy the 3rd annual Gerry Lowe memorial golf day at Lombard Glen Golf & Country Club held on Friday, June 21. All funds raised from this event go towards supporting youth in sport along with the long term goal of a first class outdoor rink facility for the town of Smiths Falls. Although not confirmed yet, this year’s event is estimated to have fundraised upwards of $20,000 net proceeds. On behalf of the Gerry Lowe Memorial Committee, we would like to thank everyone for their on-going support of this event.

Pennies keep Buck Lake Boatilla afloat EMC News - There’s something special going on in Perth Road Village, a hamlet 24 kms north of Kingston bordering on scenic Buck Lake. It is a unique combination of youthful idealism, community building and benevolence. It is embodied in Montana Faye Wilson, a shy, reserved 12-year-old who is in Grade 6 at Perth Road Public School. Montana’s story began last fall when the federal government announced that pennies would no longer be in circulation. With youthful idealism, Montana decided she would collect pennies from customers at her family corner store in Perth Road Village. Her plan was to donate them to the Buck Lake Boatilla and Community barbecue, an annual event which has raised over $86,000 to send 43 children and youth with physical disabilities to Easter Seals Camp Merrywood in eight years. Her jar used to collect the pennies soon contained larger coins, so Montana decided to coin a phrase (pun intended) to further promote her efforts. “Coins For Kids’’ was born and to date Montana, a shy, unassuming pre-teen has raised over $500 for the Buck Lake Boatilla, which will take place this year on June 29. When asked why she decided to do this and what she hoped to accomplish, Montana replied that she wanted to have fun and do something to help kids with

physical disabilities. Her goal is to raise $1,000 before the Boatilla. While making her parents very proud, Montana’s special efforts have achieved results beyond fundraising for Easter Seals. In addition to fundraising for the Send A Kids To Camp program, the Buck Lake Boatilla also has a mandate of community building by being good neighbours and participating in local activities. Through her efforts, Montana has caught the attention of Buck Lakers and given them a sense of unity and purpose. Her desire to do something good for children with physical disabilities has also done something good for this rural community. The Buck Lake Boatilla has been a wonderful community success since its inception nine years ago. A community of about 450 has rallied behind a cause of giving so children with physical disabilities will have a chance to go to summer camp at Camp Merrywood on the Big Rideau. ‘’It is all about the kids!’’ has been the Boatilla motto since it started. But it is really more about the kids than we realize. There is something special about youthful idealism, community building Submitted photo and benevolence. Just look at Montana Montana Faye Wilson aims to colFaye Wilson; we have a lot to learn and lect $1,000 worth of pennies for appreciate. Easter Seals through her program.

MVFN celebrates 25 years encouraging love, knowledge of nature EMC News – The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) held their annual general meeting (AGM) at the Almonte Civitan Club on May 16 followed by a very successful Spring Gathering event. The AGM was conducted by Ken Allison, president of MVFN, with attendance by the board and club members. Ken provided the membership with an overview of the organizations activities and finances over the last year. This is the club’s 25th year as an organization and during that time it has been very active promoting the understanding and awareness of the natural world in our community, with its popular natural history lectures series, canoe, hiking and birding outings, environmental programs for children and youth, and strong support for local conservation issues. The treasurer, Robert McCook presented the finances which show a well managed club which can continue to be very active. Ken introduced each of the board members for the coming year, and of special note is that Cliff Bennett, one of the founding members has once again been elected to the board where he will serve as vice-president for 201314. Cliff has been very actively involved with MVFN from it first days and will ensure it continues to be a vibrant and relevant organization. The AGM was followed by the wellattended and exciting Spring Gathering event. Starting with the reception, old friends and acquaintances shared drinks and chatted; many visited the Young Naturalists exhibit, the Reduce Plastic Bag campaign table and made bids on the silent auction items. The Almonte Civitan Club did an excellent job of providing top notch service and a very tasty meal. A special thanks goes out to all the volunteers, especially Rosemary McGinnis, this year’s event co-ordinator for MVFN.

Christmas Bird Count, enthusiastically guided the group through the evening culminating in a talk by Éric HébertDaly, executive director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society. Éric provided a passionate and insightful look at how conservation work was done traditionally such as through protected area campaigns, local land trusts, and renaturalization projects, and he explored how we might be more efficient and successful in the years to come through a shift towards a focus on ecological integrity, and methods such as land-use planning, network (versus islands) planning, multilateralism, and First Nations involvement to name a few. Eric fielded many interesting questions after his presentation, reflecting that our community is very engaged when it comes to the environment and conservation. It was a very successful and enjoyable evening, and everyone is reminded to put May 15 on their calendars for next year’s gathering. This summer, ongoing MVFN activities include the canoe/kayak program and annual summer walk, and the clubs’ monthly natural history lectures resume with a new series in September. Please see mvfn.ca for details of these upcoming activities and for membership information. Iain Wilkes is the publicity chair for the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists.

EMC Entertainment – Calabogie Peaks Resort will be buzzing this weekend with top Canadian country music stars at the inaugural Class Axe Guitars Calabogie Country Music Festival. Dallas Smith, Kira Isabella, and Jordan McIntosh are just a few of the exciting acts to hit the stage during the three-day event. The festival was conceived by the same team that organizes the wildly popular Calabogie Blues & Ribfest, which is heading into its third year. The Calabogie Country Music Festival will deliver top country music, on-site camping, beer gardens, food vendors, chairlift rides, a kids’ zone and more. Hailing from nearby Carleton Place, singer Jordan McIntosh is the latest sensation on the country music scene. He will headline the Friday night show at the festival, with well-known singer Leah Daniels as the opener. McIntosh, who has acquired a large fan base already, is sure to deliver a performance that will showcase that show-stopping talent. Dallas Smith is set to headline Saturday evening’s events. Numerous country bands, including Autumn Hill, Whitney Rose, The Working Class & Ryan Cook, will be taking the stage, beginning at noon leading up to the night’s big event, a performance by Canadian country music star, Smith. He delivers an outstanding show, which is a must-see for any country music fan. Smith spent the last ten years fronting the popular band Default, before stepping into a solo career in 2011. He released his solo debut country album, Jumped Right In, back in May 2012 and its first single, ‘Somebody Somewhere’, immediately soared up the Canadian Hot 100 charts. Sunday’s wrap up to the festival includes performances by Tim Chaisson, the ever-popular country band Silver Creek, Kerosene Creek, and local favourites, Ambush. Closing out the festival will be the exciting Canadian Country Music Award winner Kira Isabella. In 2012, Isabella won the Canadian Country Music Association’s Rising Star Award. Her debut CD quickly garnered national attention and she became one to watch in the Canadian country music scene. The festival grounds will open at 2 p.m. on Friday, June 28 with onsite camping. Music performances will commence at 7 p.m. More information and tickets can be found at www.calabogiecountry. com.

EMC Lifestyle - “Hi, Bill,� writes Elizabeth Spratt of Dundas, Ontario, “it was the 1976 MGB in your column that prompted me to write to you. I had a 1979 MGB with the black bumper when I was living in Victoria, B.C., in the early ’80s. At the time there were many beautiful older English cars on the road there and I decided I wanted to own one. “I tracked down this 1960 Morris Minor convertible and bought it in August 1983. Interestingly, the previous owner had put an ad in Road & Track magazine, which was not on the newsstands until after I bought the car. I later bought the magazine, which included a photo of my car. Just after buying the car, I baked a cake that looked like the car and gave it to the previous owner. That was fun! “I drove this car as my only vehicle in Victoria for six years. I even took it one time through the mountains to Nelson, B.C., with no problems. I moved east in 1992, initially to Toronto, then in 1996 to Dundas. In 1997 I had the Morris sent here – barge to Vancouver, train to Toronto, and flatbed truck that delivered it to my door on July 1, 1997. Since then, the car has been repainted with a new top and various other bits of work done. A few years ago, I visited the Morris Minor Centre in England and brought back a few parts. “Every August, the car with me and various friends over the years goes in the Dundas Cactus Festival Parade. It’s lots of fun and I hear lots of nice comments about the car. In the 2010 parade, we celebrated the car’s 50th anniversary. This year, I’ll be celebrating 30 years of ownership. “It’s great, Bill, that you are so interested in old cars in Canada.� For further information on these endearing automobiles, Elizabeth Spratt recom-

The Algonquin land claim – capital transfer and lands Canadians can cancel wireless contracts

Robert Potts will be transparent and accountable to all Algonquin beneficiaries. The AOO will develop the governance structure, mandates and powers of these Institutions to ensure the most effective protection of all beneficiaries’ interests. Land has been critical to the way of life for the Algonquins and will play an important role in the cultural recognition and future economic sustainability of the AOO. The Preliminary Draft AIP establishes that Ontario will transfer not less than 117,500 acres of Provincial Crown Land to one or more Algonquin Institutions. This lands package consists of more than 200 parcels of land ranging in size from a few acres to more than 30,000 acres. The AOO’s proposed land selections were each chosen for the following purposes: (a) Historical/Spiritual

(b) Community Recreation and Environmental Protection (c) Economic Development, Resources, Tourist Commercial (d) Future Institutional, Residential, Industrial Development The Provincial Crown Land in the Settlement Area is 3.3 million acres. Nearly 2 million acres constitutes Provincial Parks, including Algonquin Park (1.8 million acres), where the AOO will have extensive management planning input. This leaves approximately 1.3 million acres of Provincial Crown Land to be considered for AOO land selections. The proposed lands package comprises approximately four per cent of the Provincial Crown Land in the land claim Settlement Area. Through the transfer of this land, existing access to cottages, private properties, or navigable waterways will not be lost or compromised, and no new First Nation reserves will be created. A Treaty will provide economic development opportunities that will not only benefit the AOO, but will also provide a tremendous benefit to our neighbours living within Eastern Ontario. This column is the second in a series providing insights into Algonquin history, the foundation for the land claim, elements of the Preliminary Draft AIP and next steps in the journey. The next column will focus on the Parks and Protected Areas component of the Preliminary Draft AIP. For more information visit www.tanakiwin.com. Robert Potts is Principal Negotiator and Senior Legal Counsel for the Algonquins of Ontario.

after two years under new wireless code EMC News – On June 3, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) issued a wireless code that will make it easier for Canadians to understand their contracts and sets out their basic rights. The code will apply to new contracts for cell phones and other personal mobile devices starting on Dec. 2, 2013. “Every day, Canadians rely on wireless devices while in their homes, at their jobs, at school or travelling abroad,” said Jean-Pierre Blais, chairman of the CRTC. “The wireless code will contribute to a more dynamic marketplace by making it possible for Canadians to discuss their needs with service providers at least every two years.” The wireless code addresses the main frustrations that Canadians shared with the CRTC, which included the length of wireless contracts, cancellation fees, roaming charges and other industry practices. Among other things, individual and small business consumers will be able to: • Terminate their wireless contracts after two years without cancellation fees, even if they have signed on for a longer term. • Cap extra data charges at $50/ month and international data roaming charges at $100/month to prevent bill shock. • Have their cell phones unlocked after 90 days, or immediately if they

paid for the device in full. • Return their cell phones, within 15 days and specific usage limits, if they are unhappy with their service. • Accept or decline changes to the key terms of a fixed-term contract (i.e., two-year). • Receive a contract that is easy to read and understand. The wireless code will apply to all service providers in Canada. In particular, the code will apply in full to postpaid services (where customers pay a monthly bill after using their services), and where applicable to pre-paid wireless services. “The wireless code is a tool that will empower consumers and help them make informed choices about the service options that best meet their needs. To make the most of this tool, consumers also have a responsibility to educate themselves,” Blais added. The participation of a large number of consumers and the collaboration of the wireless industry will ensure the wireless code’s successful implementation. The CRTC’s public consultation attracted over 5,000 participants, including individual Canadians, who shared their views on an online discussion forum, in writing and at the public hearing held from Feb. 11 to 15. For more information about the wireless code, please visit www.crtc. gc.ca/wirelesscode.

EMC News – The following is the second installment in a series of columns provided by the Algonquins of Ontario. As the Algonquins of Ontario (AOO) continue to work toward a modern day treaty, they look forward to a bright future of self-sufficiency, economic stability, and opportunities for current and future generations. Key elements of the current Preliminary Draft Agreement-in-Principle (AIP), released on Dec. 13, 2012 by the AOO, Ontario and Canada, include a capital transfer and land component. These elements are essential to build a long-term sustainable future for the Algonquin people, and respond to present day social, cultural and economic needs. The Preliminary Draft AIP states that Canada and Ontario will transfer $300 million to one or more Algonquin Institutions, which will be Trusts established for the benefit of the Algonquin beneficiaries. These funds will be transferred in three payments over a two-year period starting on the Effective Date of the Final Agreement. Income generated from the capital transfer will make a real and positive difference in the cultural and societal fabric of the Algonquin people by removing barriers for the creation of economic opportunities and social support programs. These funds will also lay a foundation for a rewarding and vibrant future for Algonquin youth by increasing employment opportunities and access to education and training.

Director puts own spin on Raspberry clafoutis is tasty and healthy treat latest zombie apocalypse film MOVIE: World War Z STARRING: Brad Pitt, Mireille Enos, Daniella Kertesz, and Fana Mokoena DIRECTOR: Marc Forester RATING: 14A EMC Entertainment - I’ve discovered that if you’ve seen one zombie apocalypse movie then you’ve pretty much seen them all. Zombies quickly overwhelm mankind threatening humanity with extinction, and the few people left run for their lives desperately trying to survive. World War Z isn’t much different, but they do try to put their own stamp on it. Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) and his family are stuck in traffic in downtown Philadelphia when the world comes apart at the seams. A plague that’s been ravaging the world hits the U.S. hard. Gerry, with some help from his former boss UN Secretary Thierry (Fana Mokoena) barely gets his family out of the country amidst the chaos. It started as a pathogen. It kills its host, and then re-animates it turning the infected into a mindless rage monster whose only purpose is to infect others. It’s turning humanity into zombies and there

My Take MARK HASKINS

isn’t a lot of humanity left. Thierry needs Gerry to go back to work, and find the source of this plague. Gerry is the best investigator the UN has. If anyone can track the source he can, and if they can find the source they might be able to stop the plague. The zombie apocalypse may have been done before, but World War Z tries to put a new spin on it. As the entire world is overrun by zombies, instead of broadening the scope of the film Forester narrows it. The story focuses on Gerry as he follows the clues and tries to solve the mystery of how the plague happened and how to stop it. It makes World War Z feel more like a mystery than a horror movie. I like the focus of the film, and the detective-style story. It adds a whole other level of tension to the zombie film. I like the effects, and I really like the explanation of the

zombies. The thing is the film moves to a very logical conclusion. The ending makes perfect sense for the story, but the most logical ending isn’t always the most exciting or satisfying ending. In truth I found it anti-climactic. Brad Pitt is very good at taking the fear, the terror and the desperation, and making them real for the audience. This film rides on Pitt’s shoulders. It’s his character that drives the film and it’s his performance that makes his character so compelling. Mireille Enos plays Karen Lane, Gerry’s wife. Her scenes are few but riveting. It’s a very believable performance. As Gerry travels across the globe seeking answers he teams up with an Israeli soldier named Segen. It’s an intense role and Daniella Kertesz makes the most of the opportunity. World War Z may not be the war movie you’re expecting, and the ending may be a bit of a letdown, but the film’s unique perspective and focus does give the zombie apocalypse a twist.

Plan now to pay yourself for all retirement years Manage Your Money

Retirement is coming at you faster than you expected – but that’s okay because you expect those years to be fulfilling, brimming with new experiences and activities. And you will enjoy the retirement lifestyle you’ve dreamed about if you plan now to be sure you’ll have the financial resources you’ll need for all your retirement years. And that could be for a lot of years. According to Statistics Canada*, life expectancy for seniors has been on an upward trend over the last 15 years. The foundation of your retirement plan is your retirement income – so you need to know where it will come from and how much it will be. Check these sources: • The federal government offers: o the Canada Pension Plan/ Québec Pension Plan (CPP/QPP) that provides about 25% of your average annual earnings during your working life, up to certain limits.

You can build a retirement income that fits your lifestyle dreams and will last for all your retirement years when you have the right plan – and that should start with seeking advice and counsel from a professional advisor who has the expertise to keep you on the right financial track for your lifetime. *The Daily, Thursday, May 31, 2012 This column, written and published by Investors Group Financial Services Inc.

Packaged tourism experiences now available in Lanark County EMC News – Consumers looking to book travel this summer are about to gain a greater awareness of the regional tourism experiences through the Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization’s (OHTO) summer consumer marketing campaign, Head to the Highlands. The campaign website, www.Headtothe-

Highlands.ca, and recently released Summer Travel Video Series on YouTube will reach consumers via a multifaceted promotion encompassing social, digital and traditional marketing, and will place getaway packages at the core of its strategy for enticing travellers to “Head to the Highlands� this summer.

Packaging has remained a strategic priority for the OHTO for the past two years; a commitment administered through the organization’s popular tourism workshop training program. The initiative provides businesses with the opportunity to participate in workshops designed to assist with developing and

marketing tourism packages. Most travel is booked online and packaging has become an effective way for tourism businesses to differentiate themselves from their competition. By expanding an offer to include all of the elements of a memorable travel experience, businesses are more likely to cap-

ture the attention of the consumer. “We’re making it easy for consumers to select Ontario’s Highlands as their destination of choice by taking the hassle out of researching, planning and booking travel, explains Nicole WhitSee TOURISM page 43

Shops, in general will charge in the range of $80$120 per axle for this service, bringing a four-wheel total in the $160-$250 range with materials before tax. So what happens if you leave these units alone and skip the maintenance? Generally speaking, if you don’t have this service done when it’s needed (and that should be based on a proper inspection, not necessarily some arbitrary time or mileage point) the brakes linings can stick in their tracks leading to uneven and accelerated brake wear. A complete brake relining usually entails replacing the front and rear brake pads and all four rotors (brake drums are usually a little more substantial in design and will last at least two lining replacements or more). Even with competitively prices parts and labour, these jobs easily hit the $1,000 mark or more if wheel calipers require replacement. So if a routine maintenance costing $250 extends the brake lining life as little as 25 per cent, it’s a break-even proposition. But that’s only the financial side of the equation. Brakes are one of the most crucial safety systems on any vehicle, and having them in tip-top condition will pay off in a currency far more valuable than money. A large recall is heading this way involving certain 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2002-2007 Liberty SUVs. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of the US these vehicles demonstrate a higher than acceptable risk of fires in the event of a rear-end collision due to the placement of the fuel tanks behind the rear axles. While no fires, injuries, or fatalities have been reported in Canada, it is expected that Chrysler LLC will follow the same process that they announced last week for their US customers. For those vehicles, a new trailer-hitch will be installed to improve the protection to the fuel tank in the event of a low-speed impact. If the vehicle already has a hitch, a dealer inspection is still required and if the hitch is found to be inadequate it will be replaced. Chrysler has expanded this action to include 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokees. On this series of vehicles, if an aftermarket hitch is in place and it has any sharp edges, it will be replaced according to the Chrysler’s U.S. press release. As this recall is still in the preliminary stages it’s unlikely that recall letters will be mailed out or parts will be made available for several

EMC Lifestyle – In a recent column we covered the topic of vehicle maintenance and how stretched-to-the-max automaker recommended schedules weren’t necessarily the best things for consumers. Car builders in a rush to be as competitive as possible have extended the maintenance intervals on their vehicles in terms of mileage and time. As little as 10 years ago, an every-three-month or 5,000 km routine was pretty much the standard for just about all passenger cars and light trucks. Now, with the increased use of automated service reminder systems and this competitive stance, some automakers have up to 12-month intervals between services with less mention of distance travelled. While there still may be the same number of checkmarked line items at each service interval booklet page, more often than not, only the word ‘inspect’ appears beside the vehicle system with no indication of what if any preventative work should be done to ensure trouble-free driving. I thought it might be helpful to detail a few different systems on an average vehicle to reveal what the benefits are to routine maintenance and what might happen if you just leave things to themselves. Brakes: While lots of advances have been made in various systems on today’s vehicles thanks to electronics and improved materials and assembly techniques, wheel brakes really haven’t changed much in design or operation for well over 50 years. In fact if you account for lighter castings on brake calipers and support frames, lighter rotors or discs, the elimination of asbestos in brake linings, and more exposure to salt and grime thanks to open-spoked wheel rim designs, things have actually gotten stickier (pun intended) for brakes. So it shouldn’t be a surprise when your service consultant comes to you, clipboard in hand, to let you know that having a brake service completed would be a good idea. First things first, what is a brake service? While shops differ in their approach to this, and will always explain exactly what they do, if asked, generally this is what is done on an average front-wheel drive car and what it costs: A technician will remove the brake linings and calipers from their mounts and remove any rust from the brake lining frame tracks, remove any excess rust from the disc or rotor edge, and lubricate the brake caliper slider pins and brake lining tracks. If the rear brakes are a drum type, the drums and brake shoes are removed and the contact points between the shoes and their backing plates are cleaned of rust and/or grime and lubricated and everything is put back together and adjusted properly.
