Bob Dick chosen as deputy mayor in Admaston-Bromley Township Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

News – Admaston-Bromley’s new council has been sworn in and is ready to get down to business.

Mayor Michael Donohue served

one term as councillor in the township before his successful bid for mayor in the Oct. 27 municipal election.

Former councillor and long-time township resident and supporter Bob Dick was named the deputy mayor.

Former Police Services Board member Mike Quilty joins former Horton councillor Bob Hall and newcomer Kevin LeGris as councillors.

“I feel very fortunate in my position to be surrounded by you four truly capable gentlemen and I’m

quite certain that each of our individual strengths more than compensate for any of our weaker points,” said Donohue. “Much is going to be required of us over the next four years but I know that as a team we will meet and exceed all challenges.”

New Horton Township council sworn in Dec. 1 Bob Johnston named deputy mayor Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

News – It was a full house in Horton Township council chambers Monday night (Dec. 1) for the inaugural meeting of the council elected Oct. 27.

Being sworn in were Mayor Bob Kingsbury, and councillors David Bennett, Glen Campbell, Robert Johnston and Jamey Larone.

Kingsbury has chosen Johnston, a former mayor himself, as the deputy mayor.

“I’ve chosen him because of his experience, his knowledge and his availability,” said Kingsbury. “I think he’s going to be a great asset and a help to me.”

The mayor and council delivered inaugural addresses and all thanked voters, staff and their families for the support. Kingsbury said his vision for the next four years includes keeping a tight grip on the township’s finances, keeping the tax rate low and maintaining reserve funds.

Thomson Road rehabilitation has been identified as a priority, said Kingsbury, and while grant applications have not been successful, coun-

cil must find ways to address the problem.

“However, it should not be done at the expense of maintaining our gravel road upgrade program,” he said.

The fire department is facing several challenges in 2015, including replacement of the main fire truck and construction of a building at the boat launch.

Recreation in the township may seem some changes, “Recreation is a huge responsibility as it stands now and to that I have added an extra layer,” said Kingsbury. He has asked the chair to begin discussions whereby the committee would govern itself under an annual donation from the township. “This agreement would have to be beneficial to both the township and the recreation committee,” said Kingsbury, Among the other upcoming challenges are staff issues, including fixing the grid system and preparing for the retirement of the township’s CAO and administrative assistant in the not-so-distant future.

The mayor has decided to reduce the size of the planning committee, which previously had 11 members, a number that can be intimidating to

individuals making a presentation.

Three members of council will now join four public members to form the committee.

Committee appointments have been established for the upcoming year and include a new group that will focus on economic development.

The mayor is ex-officio on all committees and has established several ad-hoc committees. David Bennett will chair economic development with support from three members of the public; a committee to examine grading of private roads will be chaired by David Bennett and he will be joined by public works man-

ager Janet Collins and one public member; Glen Campbell will chair a committee to look at a building for the boat launch; and Robert Johnston will chair the annual volunteer dinner committee.

There will be a steep learning curve to get up to speed on township business and a municipal orientation session at the township office Dec. 12 and upcoming Association of Municipalities training will help facilitate that learning, said Donohue.

The mayor said he will deliver his inaugural address and announce committee and board appointments at the first meeting of the new year on Jan. 8, 2015.

Clerk-treasurer Annette Louis welcomed members and said staff members look forward to working with council.

“The residents of Admaston-Bromley should be very proud,” said Louis.

Local opposition to Energy East pipeline mounts Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – They don’t know what aspect to address, or their messaging; they haven’t even come up with a name yet.

But a group has formed in Arnprior to oppose the proposed Energy East pipeline.

About 25 people gathered at the public library on Dec. 3, including a number of elected town and township representatives and an environmental engineer. The meeting was to discuss TransCanada’s plan to convert a natural gas pipeline to oil and run it from the Alberta Tar Sands – under the Madawaska River and other Valley rivers – on to Quebec and New Brunswick.

Hosted by newly-elected McNab-Braeside Coun. Mark MacKenzie, the local threat was made plain by various commentators: • A 40-year-old pipe designed for gas is expected to ship 1.1 million barrels a day of heavy sand and bitumen under tremendous pressure; • TransCanada spills have

Derek Dunn/Metroland

Joanne Mitchell and Robert Johnston will see 1.1 million barrel of crude oil pass through a pipeline within 1,000 feet of their home if Energy East is allowed to proceed. They joined a group of about 25 for a meeting in Arnprior to plan ways to stop the proposed pipeline conversion project. doubled over the last decade, from one in 1,000 km of pipeline per year to two; • Between 1 and 2 per cent would leak before stop measures kick in, meaning at least 10,000 barrels; • About 80 to 90 per cent of the oil will be sold internationally, hence Energy East will not

contribute to energy independence; • Natural gas prices will jump by 52 per cent to pay for new gaslines, which is why gas providers like Enbridge oppose the deal; • Few full-time jobs will be created, and temporary installation workers move with the

pipeline, so locals won’t benefit.

“I don’t see the win-win,” said Robert Johnston, whose house is within 1,000 feet of the pipeline. “They do not deny there will be spills. They give the statistics on their website.

It’s all built into the business model.”

Johnston and his wife Joanne Mitchell own a farm on Waba Creek. They don’t fit the big city environmentalist stereotype. But it is evident they’ve studied Energy East extensively, and are vehemently opposed to the conversion. Sitting next to them was MaryGwyn Brown and her friend, both skeptics of the fledgling group and its arguments against the proposal.

Brown isn’t a climate change believer to start: climate has always changed; it’s narcissistic to think we can have that much impact over the world’s ecosystems; species and civilizations come and go, she says.

And there’s nothing wrong with businesses making money.

But it is the group’s willingness to charge ahead with fighting against Energy East without

first holding a robust debate that turned her off.

“I just came to see what these people were here for; to see how open-minded they are,” Brown said after the meeting. “I don’t think they are as open-minded as they need to be.”

There was no mention that Energy East will provide tax revenue to munici-

palities, and little acknowledgement of the valve system, sensors, pumping stations and monitoring process.

Many scoffed at the notion Energy East is a “nation-building project,” a contention of Alberta Premier Jim Prentice.

Stephen Janes is an environmental engineer who has worked on many similar projects in Canada.

A relative of McNab-Braeside Coun. Heather Lang, Janes travelled from London to give a presentation. He said it is important to study the details and approval process. He is also convinced the already contentious issue will grow.

“I personally think we are going to see this on the next (federal) election, it’s that big,” Janes said. He encouraged opponents to voice their concerns to the national and Ontario energy boards.

“There is an awful lot of power in your hands.”

The Ontario Energy Board will hold hearings in Stittsville and Ottawa at a yet-to-be determined date in early 2015.

MAYORS IN OPPOSITION

At one point talk turned to the macro issues of Energy

East equating to seven million more cars in use – accelerating climate change. Someone mentioned obligations to children and grandchildren.

Another brought up the risk to beluga whales in the Saint Lawrence River.

Even Arnprior Mayor David Reid agreed pipelines should be stopped and oil sands production reduced in the name of minimizing Canada’s carbon footprint. (Township Mayor Tom Peckett, also at the meeting, indicated he wants Energy East stopped.)

However, the group didn’t formulate a marketing or messaging plan, instead concentrating on either the local risk or overall danger of climate change.

Judging by the focus of the meeting, Energy East’s threat to local drinking water will be the core. One person said bottled water will cost more than oil. Another suggested filling water bottles with oil as part of a campaign.

Town of Renfrew

The local tourism sector and a spike in natural gas prices were reiterated.

Petitions, letter-writing campaigns, perhaps even a play are actions under consideration. The group acknowledged TransCanada has deep pockets for TV ads, and is suspected of planning a dirty tricks campaign to discredit opponents.

Mayors and councillors said they are at the meeting to gauge public sentiment, not play an active role in the group. MacKenzie said he will step back after the first meeting.

The local elected officials did say they would welcome delegations to speak during upcoming council meetings.

A formal presentation gives councils the impetus to join with surrounding municipalities and the county, possibly with a message to the government of Ontario and provincial and national associations of municipalities.

“It’s going to be interesting re-building that relationship between McNab-Braeside and Renfrew,” said Emon.

The mayor, deputy mayor and each councillor then read a declaration of elected office and an oath of allegiance to Queen Elizabeth II. In it they solemnly promised to ‘truly, faithfully and impartially do the best of (their) ability to exercise the office (they) have been elected.’

To finish the night, Peckett made an inaugural address where he thanked a number of people for helping him along the way including the people of the township for their inter-

“You have voted overwhelmingly for change and change we will deliver,” said Peckett.

Some things will remain the same: it will continue to be a welcoming and caring community, where people watch out for each other.

Peckett said McNab-Braeside is a proud rural community with a rich history, which they will continue to honour by promoting controlled development, which complements the township’s heritage.

Some of the things, with the people’s support he is planning on changing include delivering an open and consultative government, with clear communication (with social and traditional media updates), and an improved website.

“Commencement of public negotiations for the best possible library and recreation agreements, available with our neighbours will be started early in the New Year,” said Peckett.

He is also planning on meeting with other communities to try and find a viable solution to “unrealistic cost increases for policing.” As well he is going to take steps to protect the water resources as protection of the environment is paramount.

He called the farmers of the township critical and is proposing a board of active farmers to meet and advice council of their concerns and arrive at solutions which benefit all.

The council held its first official meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 2, after press deadline.

News – Slow and steady is the new motto for the completely new McNabBraeside council according to newly sworn-in mayor Tom Peckett.

He finished off his inaugural address to a full council chamber at the township offices on Dec. 1 with those words.

Asked afterwards why he picked that motto his reasoning was clear.

“I’m the only council member with any municipal experience as I served for seven years on the Arnprior council; the rest of the team has zero municipal experience,” said Peckett. “So I want to keep it slow and steady.”

The new mayor says he is ready to go and is excited for the new term.

“I feel proud that the people of McNab-Braeside have shown this confidence in me to lead them for the next four years,” said Peckett.

The new council is comprised of mayor Peckett, deputy mayor Brian Armsden, and councillors Scott Brum, Heather Lang and Mark Mackenzie.

During the ceremonial portion of the inaugural meeting, Rev. Leo Hughes started things off by telling the new council that on Sunday he shared the word advent with the children at church and that it means the coming or arrival of an important person or an important event.

County of Renfrew Warden Peter Emon then addressed the new mayor and council calling it a great evening for them.

“You have been chosen by your community. It’s quite a responsibility and a privilege to serve, a privilege to represent your neighbours, your friends and your community and carry their aspirations and their dreams and then to knit that into a community for the next four years,” said Emon.

“It will be a challenging time and it will be very rewarding.”

Emon called being on a municipal council an exhilarating and fun experience one which he has learned a lot from.

He noted that he has switched from serving on Greater Madawaska council and now is the Reeve of Renfrew.

Ottawa Museum of Technology shortchanged Opinion - Many people across Ottawa and the Ottawa Valley might have been a bit surprised to learn that as the result of a significant mould problem, the Canadian Museum of Science and Technology will receive an $80.5-million makeover. Surprised not because the museum doesn’t need the renovation, but because of the other opportunities the federal government appears to have passed on as a result.

This announcement comes only months after the National Capital Commission revealed the early drafts of its latest vision for LeBreton Flats, the much-neglected brownfield just west of downtown. Those plans called for “an anchor institution or an attraction” for the area, something around which the rest of LeBreton could be developed.

What better to serve as an anchor than a brand new, iconic science and tech museum?

Sure the Canadian War Museum is already there, but wouldn’t that serve to make LeBreton even more of “an attraction”?

Those who hold sway over decisions affecting the capital – the members of the Conservative government – have shown little interest in investing significant sums of money here, so the science and technology museum joins the likes of the portrait gallery in a long line of projects

that have either been moved out of Ottawa or given short shrift since 2006.

These are things people living in Ottawa and the outlying areas should be concerned about.

Ottawa West-Nepean MP John Baird, who is responsible for the NCC, said he didn’t want to see Band-Aid solutions for fixing the museum, but also worried about taxpayers and “reasonable and responsible” conclusions.

Residents of the Valley could be the benefactor of partnerships with a new museum, perhaps through travelling exhibits and interactive displays designed to help draw tourists into outlying communities and encourage rural residents, students in particular, to appreciate the significant role of science and technology in our lives.

Close access to a new, world-class museum might even inspire local youth to pursue careers in this important field.

Perhaps Canadians do simply think of Ottawa as a hive of bureaucratic drones, and nothing worth paying much mind, but that would be an insult to proud Canadians.

Ottawa, as capital of a G7 country, deserves iconic buildings. If the Conservatives aren’t willing to dream that way, perhaps people need to think hard before casting their ballots in the federal election next fall.

Paper’s recognition appreciated To the editor:

Letter to the editor

MP voted for Agenda 21 act To the editor:

Opinion - There has been a lot of misinformation on UN Agenda 21 in this riding lately.

An election must be looming.

Fact: UN Agenda 21 is a legally non-binding statement of intent and not a treaty. It was voted on in parliament as the ‘Federal Sustainable Development Act’, which received Royal Assent on June 26, 2008.

Fact: Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant voted in favour of the act. See http://www.parl.gc.ca/HouseChamberBusiness/ChamberVoteDetail.aspx?FltrParl=39&Fl

If it really is, in a ‘nutshell’, a plan “for government to eventually take control of all land use removing decision-making from the hands of private property owners,” why did Cheryl Gallant vote in favour of the act?

How can she blame the Liberals for it? The more you know...

8 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, December 11, 2014

Opinion - Your ‘Heartfelt Thank You’ in the Dec. 4, 2014 Renfrew Mercury was not only a surprise, but the icing on the cake for me. It was a great way to put the end to my political career. Thank you.

I am glad that I ran in the last election, offering experience and stability to what I could see as a new council.

Had I not run, I would always be saying, darn it, I could have helped here or there. The election helped me to close the book and now I am ready to move on to easier things.

Thank you so very much for your kind words.

Marguerite gives angelic performance for Northcote audience

Marguerite even had wings made by her mother...gossamer affairs that somehow were attached to the long white dress she wore, and she flitted around the stage in her white stockinged feet and with her newly permed Shirley Temple curls bobbing on her head like sausages on springs.

My sister Audrey and the Briscoe twins opened the concert after Miss Crosby blew into a little whistle that gave them the proper note to start on.Their voices filled the school, and I could see Mother and Mrs. Briscoe wipe their eyes with the corner of their hankies.

Then there was the one act play, and it seemed to me we acted out the same one every year. It was called “Who salted the soup?”

The only thing different was the cast, which changed from Christmas concert to Christmas concert.

Both Emerson and Cecil had parts in the play and I held my breath for its entire duration, but

Information Corner TOWNSHIP OF HORTON

their performance went off without a hitch, much to everyone’s relief.

Then Audrey and the twins sang a few more carols, this time much better than their first effort, since they were now used to the dim light and with one performance under their belts.

All the time they were singing, Miss Smartypants was hopping around the stage with her wings flapping and her face cast to the ceiling, trying her best to look like an angel. I thought she looked like a white chicken scanning the stage for a place to light!

But I couldn’t say a word, or move from my place, where, as a sheep, I was to keep my eyes on the manger and the doll borrowed from my friend Joyce Frances’ large collection.

Miss Crosby had given us explicit instructions not to move off the stage when the concert ended.

We were to stay in our positions, and she would say a few words to the audience, thank everyone for coming, and as happened every year, as if by magic, as soon as she finished, the school door flew open, and in rushed Santa Claus.

Only then could we leave the stage and go to sit on the two front planks.

Well, that’s when all hell broke loose. Miss Perfect, bound to be the first off the stage, as soon as Santa roared into the school with his

‘Ho, Ho’ Hos, Marguerite made a dive to lead the parade from the make-shift stage, which was just a platform borrowed from the United Church, her foot caught on the tail of her dress, and she slid off the stage like a ship being launched from a dock!

Her wings were under her, and hadn’t Miss Crosby made a grab for her, she would have slid right into the front row of planks.

Santa Claus never missed a beat, ignored the heap on the floor, and headed right for the tree, ready to hand out the presents.

It was a pretty quiet Marguerite we saw for the rest of the night. My brother Emerson, on the way home in the flat-bottomed sleigh after the evening was over, said he’d bet his last dollar that she wouldn’t be the angel in the next Christmas concert.

I thought if she didn’t grow too much, maybe Miss Crosby could put her in the crib, and she could be baby Jesus. That way she would have to stay perfectly still for the entire evening, and not move a muscle. Somehow, I couldn’t picture her in the role.

Lifestyle - The Northcote School was packed, and the smell of felt insoles, galoshes, and gum rubbers, propped against a log by the wood stove filled the room. It was the yearly Christmas concert.

The desks had been stacked and moved to the front of the room, and planks brought in and either ends placed on chairs for seating.

What was left of the Christmas tree decorations made for a sorry sight. Miss Crosby had us make 18 popcorn balls the day before (that’s how many students there were), and they were strung on string with a large darning needle, and circled the limbs of the big tree propped in the corner.

Sadly, the mice had eaten every last popcorn ball during the night, and all that was left was the string, and the few ropes of red and green chain paper, also made by the pupils.

Underneath were the presents each pupil brought for the person whose name he had drawn the week before...and of course, we each had brought a present for Miss Crosby too.

The concert had been rehearsed daily for a month, and if we didn’t know our lines by the night of the concert it wasn’t the teacher’s fault!

And every last one of us had a part if you wanted it or not.

Emerson and Cecil would have much preferred being part of the audience, but Miss Crosby was having none of that!

As usual, bad Marguerite was an angel, and I was a sheep... again!

News - The 2015 Shake the Foundation Committee officially announced its entertainment lineup and kicked off ticket sales on Friday, Nov. 28 at Renfrew Victoria Hospital. The kickoff included a guest appearance

by Country 101.1 morning personality Joël Lamoureux.

Shake the Foundation is organized by a dedicated group of volunteers and this year all proceeds will be going to the Renfrew Victoria Hospital Foundation as part of its I Choose RVH expansion campaign.

The event benefited the Eastern Ontario Chapter of the Kidney Foundation of Canada in its first two years, and the committee has now made a long-term commitment to support RVH. “Currently, with the 23,000 square foot expansion and redevelopment project, we thought it was extremely important to support our local hospi-

Community - Six and a half tables competed in duplicate bridge at Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre Wednesday, Dec. 3.

Garry Irving in the pre-game Chalk Talk urged players to incorporate the Rule of Seven and the Rule of Eleven into their convention arsenals.

Chalk Talks are suspended until the first meeting in the New Year when Garry will explain the Rule of Fifteen and the Rule of Twenty.

Bringing home the lone small slam of the day were Mona Brydges and Diaan Juby with a six clubs contract.

Precision bidding paid off.

Congratulations to the following winners: • North-South: 1st – Bill Buttle and Ron Anglin; • 2nd – Eric Brown and Ernie Berndt; • 3rd – Gillian and Mac Wilson; • East-West: 1st – Sharon and Tom Sewter; • 2nd – Jeannie Yagminas and David Sulpher • 3rd – Mona Brydges and Diaan Juby.

Five dollars buys a great afternoon of fun and challenge. tal,” says Craig Dunbar, committee member for Shake the Foundation and former dialysis patient at RVH. “It’s very exciting that we will have this new and amazing facility benefiting everyone in the community.”

Vigil remembers murder victims Co-ordinator of the Assault Response Team at the Renfrew Victoria Hospital Jennifer Valiquette, at left, and director of the Women’s Sexual Assault Centre Joanne Brookes at the Dec. 6 vigil in Petawawa where a candle was lit for each of the 14 women murdered in Montreal and a rose was placed in memory of the 17 Renfrew County women murdered by men. Valiquette and Brookes co-chair EVA Renfrew County (End Violence Against Women Renfrew County), formerly the Renfrew County Committee for Abused Women. They were catching a train to Montreal last Saturday after the vigil and the bouquet of roses in the photo was going with them to be presented as part of the Ecole Polytechnique vigil. This was being done as a symbol of Renfrew County women’s solidarity with the women in Montreal. December 2014 was the 25th anniversary of the Montreal massacre.

News - Young people doing the right thing may earn themselves some well-deserved recognition this winter.

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is proud to be continuing its partnership with Mac’s Convenience Stores across Ontario for Operation Heat 2014, a program that rewards children who demonstrate positive actions, positive behaviour and show acts of kindness toward others. OPP officers will be keeping a watchful eye for young people carrying out good deeds in communities across the province; and when they catch someone in an act of kindness, the ‘thank you’ which they will receive in the form of free “ticket” for hot chocolate.

Operation Heat is a Positive Ticketing Program that provides opportunities for OPP officers to interact with young people in our communities while recognizing our youth for doing good deeds. Officers can use the coupons in a ‘positive’ way to establish a dialogue with children in their patrol area and build relationships that will last for years to come.

“The OPP is pleased to participate again this year in this highly successful initiative that recognizes youth for responsible and caring behaviour,” said OPP Inspector Robyn MacEachern.

“Any opportunity we have to interact with young people is a good thing.

Engaging our business communities in support of youth programs also helps make our communities stronger.”

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM SCOTT`S SHOE STORE & THEIR STAFF

Lucy Hass/MetrolanD

David Stewart of Renfrew was one of the 107 donors at the Canadian Blood Services (CBS) clinic Friday, Nov. 28 at the Royal Canadian Legion in Renfrew.

Giving, in the season of giving Lucy Hass

lucy.hass@metroland.com

Ninety-one units of blood were collected Nov. 28 at the Renfrew Legion, representing 95 per cent of the target set for the clinic sponsored by the Renfrew Lions Club.

There were also six new donors, and 10 walk-ins, while 37 people cancelled or were no-shows.

The next Renfrew clinic is Friday, Jan. 23 at the Renfrew Legion from 2 to 5 p.m. and again from 6 to 7 p.m. The target for the Jan. 23 clinic is 96 units. To meet that goal, CBS would like

to have 150 people book an appointment. If a regular donor is unable to give, they are encouraged to bring a friend.

CBS spokesperson Maureen Millette notes there are clinics six days a week at the CBS Carling Avenue location in Ottawa and any group of five people or more interested in booking an appointment can contact her directly at 613-560-7247 and she would be happy to arrange a special welcome.

To learn more, visit the revamped, interactive CBS website at www.blood.ca and learn about the many giving options available and how to access the new app for iphone or Android.

News - Bob Schreader says it was an interest in his children’s education that motivated him to join Renfrew County’s Catholic school board 25 years ago.

“It has been my privilege to represent the Catholic School ratepayers within the City of Pembroke on the board of trustees of the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board,” says Schreader. Now, with three grandchildren in Catholic schools, Schreader’s commitment to Catholic education has never been stronger.

In fact, as he celebrated 25 years as a school trustee on Dec. 1, Schreader has added a new commitment to his agenda. Earlier this year, he was elected vice-president of the Ontario Catholic School Trustees’ Association, where he serves as the Chair of the Legislative and Finance Committee. He also serves on the board of directors for the Canadian Catholic School Trustees’ Association.

Meanwhile, on the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board (RCCDSB), Schreader has served as chair for eight years and vice-chair for six years. He also has chaired many of the board’s standing committees, including educational services, and business and corporate Services.

“As a board trustee, I have seen first-hand the value of our Catholic education system, “ Schreader says.

“For our children, school further enhances the efforts of both home and parish. I believe that our Catholic education system assists all our children in learning the teachings of Jesus. There are ample opportunities to experience our rich faith tradition

Our Lady of Fatima food drive A food drive at Our Lady of Fatima School during October raised more than 900 food items for the Renfrew and District Food Bank. The food drive was created in connection with the Renfrew County Catholic District School Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who I Amâ&#x20AC;? project, which linked daily scripture readings to the donation of food items.

Schreader says his commitment to Catholic education is shared by Karen, his wife of 43 years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We share a deep belief in the value of Catholic education,â&#x20AC;? he says.

Schreader, who retired last year as manager of Environmental Health with the Renfrew County and District Health Unit, is the immediate past Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus Bishop N.Z. Lorrain Council 1531 in Pembroke. He also is active in his parish, serving as a special minister at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish in Pembroke.

His volunteer work in the Pembroke community includes six years on the Pembroke Police Services Board and chair of the Citizensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Committee for the City of Pembroke that reviewed the composition of city council, and remuneration for the mayor and council.

Gold, silver for Team Ultimate Fitness at provincial competition Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Sports - A recent trip to a provincial powerlifting competition was very successful for Karen Maxwell and her daughter Kinsey, along with the entire Ultimate Fitness team.

Karen brought home a silver medal while Kinsey came away with gold.

A teammate of Karen’s who trains in the same age and weight class earned a gold and another member also won a gold medal at the Nov. 29-30 Ontario Powerlifting Association 2014 Classic Provincial Championships in North Bay. “All in all, it was a very successful meet for our team,” said Karen who applauds Paul Vaillancourt and Sarah Leighton of Ultimate Fitness for their excellent coaching.

Kinsey, who is away at university in Guelph, lifts for a different club now.

“But we consider her a teammate all the same,” says her proud mom.

Karen and Kinsey both started powerlifting about two-and-a-half years ago.

Both were involved in crossfit so it was a natural transition, “It’s definitely different than anything I’d ever tried,” said Karen. “It’s very challenging.”

She is particularly pleased with the success of her teammate Kim Power, who competes in the same age and weight class.

Karen, who will be 50 in January, said it’s just great to share the success with her friend.

“We think of ourselves as the older badasses,” she said.

And earning the silver medal wasn’t easy.

A stomach bug on the day of competition and a repetitive strain shoulder injury were hurdles she was able to overcome on the way to the podium.

She credits her peers for keeping her in the contest.

“I wouldn’t have finished if it weren’t for my teammates,” she said.

Karen and her teammates have an eye on nationals coming up in Newfoundland in April.

Second gold for Warriors

Harnek Rai/Submitted

Sarah Leighton shows the face of concentration during her 486-pound squat competition at the IPF Open World Championships in Aurora, Colorado.

The Upper Ottawa Valley Petite Warriors captured gold at the 17th annual Arnprior Ringette Tournament this past weekend. The team went through its three-game division unbeaten, and then defeated the host team to claim their second gold medals of 201415. They also brought home gold from Nepean last month. Goaltender Abby Legault was awarded MVP and Lilly Kluke came home with the sharp shooter trophy from the tournament skills competition. The Warriors remain undefeated in the u12 petite regional division in the National Capital Regional Ringette League. In front row, from left, are Alexia Gardner, Alexandra Lennox, Khloe Bertrand, Kailey Macleod, Emily Tracey, Casey McNaughton, Abby Legault; and back row, head coach Derek Lennox, Steph Froats, Emily Froats, Olivia Reid, Samantha Belanger, Gillian Findlay, Lily Desjardins, Lilly Kluke, Christine Schwan, trainer Marc Bertrand and assistant coach Don Macleod.

Sarah Leighton fourth in IPF Open World Championships Ultimate Fitness

Sports - Hard work and perseverance has proved to pay off for Sarah Leighton of Renfrew, after placing fourth in the 72-kilogram class, consisting of a 12 woman field at the International Powerlifting Federations annual Open World competition. The competition was held in Aurora, Colorado Nov. 3 to 8.

Sarah was ranked seventh by nominations, and was hoping to improve her placing to sixth.

“The top five is hard to crack at the international level,” Leighton said.

“The two girls that were ranked second and fifth did not finish their lifts, so it opened the door for me to move into fourth place. I have to be happy despite two of the top lifters were disqualified, because bottom line is that I did what I had to do to place fourth, and they didn’t do what they had to do to stay in the competition.”

Powerlifting consists of three separate lifts, the Squat, the Bench Press, and the Deadlift. Each competitor has three attempt selections at each lift.

Athletes must receive at least two white lights from the three judges for the lift to be considered technically sound.

The best attempt from each lift is added together to give the athlete a total, and then a body weight/weight lifted formula is used to allow for comparison for different body weights.

It wasn’t Sarah’s best competition, as she only completing six of her nine lifts, two because of technical errors, and one not completed.

Her squat attempts were 424 lbs, 446 lbs (no lift), and 468 lbs. Bench press attempts were 264 lbs, 275 lbs, and 292 lbs (no lift).

The final challenge is the Deadlift which she attempted 391 lbs, 418 lbs, and 440 lbs (no lift). This gave Sarah a 1,162 lb total, and a Wilks for-

mula of 521.8, which moved her up the all-time Canadian National rankings to fifth position.

“I’m not completely happy with my performance, but placing fourth was pretty gratifying. It was a goal of mine to place top five at Worlds before I turned Masters category, which is over 40 years old, so now I have a few years to improve even more,” Leighton said.

The winner of the 72kg. weight class was an American, Priscilla Ribic. Second place was Ana Castellain from Brazil, and third place was Rhaea Stinn, a fellow Canadian from Moose Jaw, Sask.

Next up for Sarah will be Nationals in St John’s NL in April.

The Renfrew Minor Hockey Association is the beneficiary of an RBC Royal Bank Learn to Play Project grant for $3,000. From left are RBC regional vice president Glen Kelsey and branch manager Marci Joyce; and Renfrew Minor Hockey Association treasurer A.J. White and president Kim Greer. The funds focus on the Initiation and Novice programs.

Sports - The Renfrew Major Midget Timberwolves completed the string of four consecutive weekends of Regional Silver Stick hockey tournament competition in Pembroke Nov. 28 and 29 for Renfrew teams.

After suffering 3-2 and 5-2 setbacks to the Kemptville Panthers and Casselman-Embrun Ice Dogs respectively, the Midget Wolves left the tournament on a winning note on the strength of a 6-3 win over the Lakefield Chiefs.

Austin Scheuneman had both Renfrew goals in the tournament opener, while Justin Knight-Locke and Linden Fraser connected versus the Ice Dogs.

Billy Karras notched four goals and Carson Barber the other two in the win over Lakefield.

Tied at 3-3 after two periods of play, Karras banged home all three third-period markers. Barber and Will Vincent added three assists in the tournament for the Midget Wolves.

Jeremy Bibeau and Riley Rathwell handled goaltending duties for Renfrew.

Your gift keeps on giving. Forever.

Legacy Gift will generate $42.2 MILLION for CHEO over next 100 years Weldon Cochrane was an Ottawa chartered accountant and partner with the accounting firm of Coopers and Lybrand (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers) and was also the Treasurer on the CHEO Foundation Board. Mr. Cochrane had an appreciation for the importance of leaving a legacy and understood how to make an impact when he decided to made a gift in his Will to CHEO. He left the residual of his estate with instructions for it to be endowed; meaning that the capital would be preserved in perpetuity and the annual interest would be used to fund the important work at CHEO. When Mr. Cochrane died in 1985 the CHEO Foundation received $540,000

from his estate and established the Weldon Cochrane Endowment Fund as directed in his Will. Much has happened and changed at CHEO since his death and in that time his legacy gift has grown to $4.6 million.

As CHEO marks its 40th anniversary this year, we look back and honour not only those in our community who made our local children’s hospital a reality, but also donors like Mr. Cochrane who made children a priority. Why not honour what is most important to you during your lifetime The impact of Mr. Cochrane’s generous gift is probably beyond what by considering a gift in Will to CHEO.

Agony and Ecstasy for Renfrew teams on the ice at the curling club Behind the Glass

Sports - The Agony and the Ecstasy was playing in full living Technicolor at the Renfrew Ice Shed Nov. 28-30 as two Renfrew teams battled nine other entries for the two coveted spots in the Master’s Zones, leading to the Regionals and a shot at the provincials.

The agony came quick and fast for the team of Gary Smith, Dave Eady, Rory McKay and Don Armitage as they battled the David Roy rink from Carleton Heights shot by shot until the fateful eighth end.

After setting up a perfect situation for a steal, they had to sit and watch a Roy last rock draw, wick off a guard and slide in as the game winner.

This was quickly followed on Saturday morning with more agony as shots went astray and the lads made a quick exit to the land of solace in the upstairs lounge.

The Rob Warren rink with Don Rouble, Jim Berg and Andy Humphries were in ecstasy when they defeated the Zieroth rink from Pembroke in an opening round win, only to meet agony in the name of Ed Warren, taking him to last rock only to see him draw perfectly onto

the button for the win.

Ecstasy followed, but not until a dramatic comeback from down three to take one, then steal one and finally steal two for the win over Bruce Delaney.

This put the boys into Sunday’s B semi-final where they defeated Leo Buckley’s Deep River foursome despite some last end drama.

This set them up in the B-finals and a spot at the Regionals against their ol’ nemesis, Ed Warren who had just experienced a last rock loss to A-side winner, Richmond’s Andy Hall.

The game started like many games that occur after a long weekend of curling with misses

mixed with good shots.

Slowly the tide began to shift in the visitors’ favour and this time the local lads could not mount a comeback.

They shook hands without throwing last rock.

A special thanks goes out to Yvonne Sklepowicz, Susan Hanniman and all the ladies who kept the hungry curlers well fed and to our able bartenders, who provided consolation to the defeated and cheer to the winners and finally to Cedric Wright who provided countless hours supervising the event and repairing computer problems in his spare time.

Renfrew wrestlers at Quebec Open tournament competition fare well Joe Greer

Renfrew Amateur Wrestling Club

Sports - Fourteen members of the Renfrew Wrestling Club were at Riverdale High School in Montreal to compete in the Quebec Open championships.

All the athletes competed well and gained some much anticipated mat time that they all put to good use.

The senior squad put a few winning notches in their belts, which will help guide them along towards possibly competing at the provincials and national championships later this coming season.

Senior team results were as follows: second - Cole Herbert, Savana Pinsent; and

third Shanna Beauchamp, Cole Mckee and Ryan Theobald.

Coaches were impressed with the outcome of our wrestlers where Savana, a 12-yearold, wrestled against some 17-year-olds at the tournament and beat them.

The Youth Mat Rats competitors were fierce but Renfrew showed their stuff doing very well in their first tournament of the season with Sara Pinsent winning gold.

In the Poussin Girls 30kg weight class Renfrew made a clean sweep with Sara Pinsent gold, Ariel Gibbons silver, and Kiera Debeau bronze.

Also winning gold in her weight class was Addison

Felhaver. Silver medals went to Chloe Gibbons, Ariel Gibbons, and Quinn Foley. Duncan Jamieson captured the bronze medal in his weight division.

Aaron Moore, Virginie Clement and Graham Rheaume were just off the podium.

Virginie wrestled up an age group and although did not make the podium, wrestled exceptionally well against some older girls and gained much experience.

All wrestlers will prepare for the first annual Norm Bujold Fall Brawl at Renfrew Collegiate on Saturday, Dec. 13.

Wolves split weekend games to remain in Valley Division lead Peter Clark

peter.clark@metroland.com

Sports - A split on the weekend didn’t allow the Renfrew Timberwolves to add to their lead atop the Valley Division of the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League. But it did shave a couple more games off the 42-game schedule.

The Wolves outlasted the visiting Pontiac Juniors 4-3 in overtime Friday night, and followed up by dropping a 5-4 decision to the Ottawa Junior Canadians in a matinee encounter Saturday. Both games were played at the Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre.

The Wolves (17-5-1-and-1) hold a four-point edge on the Stittsville Rams for first place in the Valley loop.

Wolves 4, Pontiacs 3

The Wolves have found a flair for the dramatics when it come to games versus the Pontiac Juniors.

In four meetings so far during the 2014-15 season, the Wolves appeared destined for defeat. But in all four occasions, it has been the Wolves standing tall at the end. In Friday’s meeting, Shawville’s advantage was 3-1 entering the final stanza.

Some say it’s the worst lead in

hockey. It was for the Pontiacs on this night.

Before the dust settled, the Wolves battled back to draw even on thirdperiod goals from Lyle Stressman and Scott Conroy.

After killing off their own penalty to end regulation time, the Wolves caught a break when the puck got caught up in a Pontiacs line change.

The too many men on the ice call resulted in a Renfrew powerplay 1:03 into the five-minute overtime.

It didn’t take long for the Wolves to connect. After just nine seconds, Stressman fired home his second of the night past Shawville goalkeeper Danick Boisvert from between the faceoff circles to send most in the Friday night crowd home happy.

Conroy earned his second assist of the night on the game-winning goal.

Lucas Gonu had the Wolves opening marker back in the first period.

Mathew Labrosse, Liam Piorier and Danick Genest answered for the Pontiacs.

The Wolves got themselves into penalty trouble with minors and misconducts in the second period, or they may never have had to face a 3-1 deficit in the first place.

Piorier and Genest notched the only goals of the second stanza. Both came on Shawville powerplays.

The Wolves Colin Bradbury and

Shawville counterpart Dylan McNamara received early exits 9:38 into the third period following the game’s only scrap.

Matt Gagne backstopped the Renfrew victory on a 29-save effort.

Boisvert blocked 30 shots in the Pontiac goalcrease.

Ottawa 5, Wolves 4

For the second time in about 19 hours, the Wolves found themselves down two goals entering the third period. But a dramatic comeback was not on the cards this time as the Ottawa Junior Canadians claimed a 5-2 lead with a powerplay goal just 30 ticks into the final session.

The two goals the Wolves answered with were not enough to overhaul the Canadians.

Joey Larcher and Jayden Landry had two goals apiece to lead the Junior Canadians.

Kevin Boyd added a single for Ottawa. Boyd scored a shorthanded goal on an immaculate effort to tie the game 2-2 after Scott Conroy had given the Wolves their second onegoal lead of the afternoon early in the second period.

Tanner Smith, Lucas Gonu and Colin Bradbury had other Renfrew markers.

Kenneth Nichol backstopped the

Teddy Suckow of the Renfrew Timberwolves shakes off the check of Shawville’s Alexandre Ferraton to generate a scoring chance against Pontiac goalkeeper Danick Boisvert. Boisvert prevailed on this occasion, but the Wolves won in the end, 4-3 in overtime Friday night at the Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre.

Ottawa victory on 28 saves.

Dane Brumm faced 13 Canadians shots, and was relieved by Matt Gagne after yielding Ottawa markers 24 seconds apart late in the second period.

The Wolves continue a pre-Christmas home stand this Friday at the MAC.

The defending Valley Division champion Almonte Thunder provides the opposition at 8 p.m. This year’s hopes of a return to the playoffs are running out quickly for the Thunder.

They are 10 points out of a fourth place.

It’s the only game on the schedule for the Wolves this weekend.

‘Hurt’ tournament helps Victims of Violence Prospects in Arnprior and “all came out as winners,” said McCormick.

Quite a variety of age groups participated in the tournament, “which was pretty neat,” he said.

Included were seven-year-olds and a player from the Renfrew Millionaires team, M.J. Blimkie, who is 77.

Teams were from Arnprior, Carleton Place, Cumberland, Stittsville, Nepean, many other parts of Ottawa, and as far as way Northern Quebec.

There was also a ladies division.

McCormick said proceeds in the range

$50,500 IN TAX FREE MONEY

of $15,000 or $16,000 will go to Victims of Violence’s It Shouldn’t Hurt to be a Child program.

McCormick and his wife Sylvie issued a thank you to all who attended, participated and helped out over the weekend.

“A special thank you to Glenn Arthur and his staff that did an A1 job in keeping the facility in good order all weekend,” said the McCormicks.

They also issued a very special thank you to the tournament’s major sponsor Herzing College and all the other sponsors.

40 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, December 11, 2014

Some owls to watch out for this winter Lifestyle - Every five to seven years we have an irruption of owls from the north and also local owls become more visible. On the Tundra, food becomes scarce (lemming populations crash) and the owls move south, locally a good breeding season will produce many owls and they have to move to new food sources to survive.

A BARRED OWL

Corrine Sauve sent us this account of an encounter with a barred owl.

Hi, Jim and Ila: I sent you an email with the sound recording on it this past summer and you identified it as a short-eared owl. Well, this morning at 8 a.m. I was looking out my kitchen window and another owl showed itself. I went outside and walked right up to it and got a wonderful picture. It didn’t even fly away when the flash went off. What a beautiful, beautiful bird. When it did fly away, I could not believe the wing span of it. Awesome! I am attaching the picture I took, enjoy.

Corinne: The behaviour, tolerance of people, and the great picture you sent, tell us that it was a barred owl.

The round head, large dark eyes and the scarf around its neck are all good field marks. The “who cools for you, who cooks for you all” call in the spring and summer is possibly the best field mark. Thank you for sharing this encounter with us.

A SNOWY OWL

Maynard Vander Gailien sent us this email regard the snowy owl on his property.

Hello, Jim and Ila: I have been excavating and cleaning out the two creeks here for the past two weeks and I often see the big white snowy owl sitting on the piles of excavated soil not far from where we are work-

JIM FERGUSON Scene from the Hawk’s Eye ing. I also see the big owl sitting in my harvested soybean field. The owl sits on the piles of creek ground, I suppose the owl is watching for rodents coming out of the excavated area.

Thank you, Maynard. No doubt there will be mice and possibly a muskrat living in the ditch and the owl will be there looking for a meal.

The bird you mention is an adult, a very white bird without any dark feathers.

FINCHES

Jo-Anne and Bill Wendt have been enjoying the arrival of some finches.

Hi, Jim and Ila: The single sightings are one evening grosbeak on Nov. 25, one white-winged crossbill on Nov. 11, and the first single redpoll on Dec. 3. Today we had five redpolls at our feeder. Also at the feeder were three, five and four pine siskins on Nov. 18, 19 and 20, but none since then. The white-crowned sparrow was seen in Ferguslea on Dec. 3 and 4, well beyond the usual time for this species. Today there were three mallards in the creek at Ferguslea.

Thank you for the email. We were wondering if there would be any finches at our feeders this winter.

Reports indicate that there is a very meagre cone crop in the area; no cones, no finches.

A GOOD CROP (OF BIRDS)

Rob Herweyer from Virgin Lake in the Calabogie area sent us this

CORRINE SAUVE

Barred owl on the hunt. email.

We have been enjoying the late season birds, blue jays, white-breasted nuthatches, chickadees, downy and hairy woodpeckers, ruffed grouse, common mergansers and to add a touch of spring a beautiful, large robin has been hanging around for the past week. Today, coming home from a walk, I noticed otters feeding along the thin ice at the edge of the water. I got home just in time to see a mature bald eagle take a fish away from the otters. It flew into a nearby

tree, aware of my presence I am sure, and then flew away, hanging on to its fish. What a treat to see. The video only shows the eagle flying away in the distance, next time I will get the bird at close range.

Thank you for the email, Rob. Such activity is really a sight to see.

Every now and again Nature allows us such pleasure.

CHRISTMAS BIRD COUNT

The Christmas Bird Count will

take place on Dec. 20 this year.

We welcome feeder and field counters.

Those that helped in previous years will be contacted within the next week or 10 days.

Phone or send us an email if you wish to be part of the action.

Installing drywall on the second floor.

News- Visitors to Renfrew Victoria Hospital will continue to see construction work on the 23,000square-foot addition as we approach the holiday season and New Year.

Exterior jobs such as roofing, laying brick, and paving sidewalks have been checked off the list.

Installation of the glass walls and windows has been a massive job due to the sheer quantity in an architectural design meant to ensure the new building is light, bright and modern.

As the last of the glass is being installed and all openings closed against winter weather, insulation and drywall are being installed on interior stud walls.

The elevator is now fully operational, and being used to deliver equipment and supplies between the floors.

“Every week progress is made in the project that brings us nearer to moving into this fantastic new space and redeveloping our existing facility.

“There is a lot for patients, their family, staff and physicians to look forward to in 2015,” says RVH vice president of patient care services Chris Ferguson who plays a key role in co-ordinating the project.

Three million Ontarians are registered organ donors Trillium Gift of Life Network

for a lifesaving organ because there are not enough donors to meet the demand. Every three days, one of those people will die waiting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to build on this momentum and continue to drive registration rates even higher, says Dr. Eric Hoskins, Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Minister of Health and Long Term Care. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have no doubt Ontario is up to the challenge. Visit www.

BeADonor.ca to register or check and update your registrationâ&#x20AC;?

Trillium Gift of Life Network has been reporting registration rate by region on www.

BeADonor.ca since 2012. Six cities now report rates of over 50 per cent: Lively, Garson, Hanmer, Val Caron, Parry Sound and North Bay. With Vaughan and Woodbridge both reaching rates of 10 per cent, Concord is now the only community in Ontario with a rate under 10 per cent.

QUICK FACTS

â&#x20AC;˘ One donor can save up to eight lives and improve the lives of up to 75 others.

â&#x20AC;˘ It is very simple to register consent for organ and tissue donation in Ontario at www.

BeADonor.ca, at any ServiceOntario centre or by mail, download a copy of the consent form at www.giftoflife.on.ca. â&#x20AC;˘ If you registered or updated your consent online between March 23, 2013 and September 19, 2014 you are still a registered donor.

Due to a recent technical issue, Trillium Gift of Life Network has asked this group to please visit www.BeADonor. ca to update their registration to make sure their exclusion information is accurately recorded. â&#x20AC;˘ The growth in registration in Ontario over four years has outpaced the U.S., a leading jurisdiction.

According to the latest information available, between December 2009 and December 2013 Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s registration rate grew by 47 per cent compared to the U.S. growth rate of 35 per cent. â&#x20AC;˘ Communities with the most improved organ and tissue donor registration rates, from July 1, 2014 to September 30, 2014: Hawkesbury (7%), East/Central

Prescott and Russell Utd City (6%), Russell (5%), Rockland (5%), and Orangeville (5%). â&#x20AC;˘ To date, 865 individuals and 288 organizations have launched registration drives on www.BeADonor. ca to encourage their families, friends and colleagues to help save lives through organ and tissue

donor registration.

Trillium Gift of Life Network is a not-for-profit agency of the Government of Ontario responsible for planning, promoting, coordinating and supporting organ and tissue donation for transplantation across Ontario and improving the system so that more lives can be saved.

Lifestyle - Ontario on track for a record year for organ and tissue donation and transplant New numbers released today at www.BeADonor.ca reveal that the organ and tissue donation registration rate in Ontario has now reached 26 per cent, compared to a 17 per cent donor registration rate just five years ago.

The total number of registered donors in Ontario today is 3,029,097.

Between 2009 and 2014, Ontario organ donor registrations grew by 57 per cent (from 1.9 million to 3.0 million). â&#x20AC;&#x153;This significant increase in donor registrations over a relatively short period of time is extraordinary,â&#x20AC;? says Mr. Tom Mone, celebrated chief executive officer of Southern Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s OneLegacy, a leading U.S. organ procurement organization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We appreciate the extraordinary effort, systems, and ultimately, the inspiring and compelling messaging that this impressive growth requires. We congratulate Trillium Gift of

Life Network on this achievement.â&#x20AC;?

Registration saves lives. With evidence of their loved oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s registered consent, almost all families honour this donation decision. In the absence of registered consent, only 50 per cent of families consent to organ donation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ontario has a world class donation and transplant system and our registry was built to mimic the most successful registries in the world, says Ronnie Gavsie, President and CEO of Trillium Gift of Life Network. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One in four people in Ontario are now registered donors. We have a lot to be proud of.â&#x20AC;?

Between 2009 and today, 1,334 deceased Ontario organ donors have contributed to 5,697 lifesaving kidney, liver, lung, heart, pancreas and small bowel transplants.

Just over 7,500 tissue donors enhanced the lives of thousands of patients, including corneas to restore sight, heart valves, bone and skin.

Though 2014 is on track to be a record year for donations and transplant, there are still over 1,500 people on the waiting list

Prevent the spread of invasive species Lifestyle - Invasive species such as zebra mussels and phragmites cost Ontario communities tens of millions of dollars a year, affecting our local parks, lakes and rivers as well as our economy.

Ontario is taking action to protect our communities from invasive species through the prevention, early detection, rapid response and eradication of invasive species in the province. Ontario has reintroduced

the Invasive Species Act, 2014 which, if passed, will protect the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural environment from invasive species and the significant social, environmental and economic costs they pose for Ontarians.The act would ban activities such as possessing and transporting certain invasive species, inspection and enforcement measures, allow for earlier intervention and enable rapid response actions, including working with

To learn more, visit www.crohnsandimpact of Crohn’s and colitis, both nationally research projects and is Canada’s largest non- colitis.ca. and for people who live with the diseases.

Prolonged and frequent diarrhea is the most common outward symptom for many people dealing with Crohn’s and colitis. Most people living with the disease also experience intense and ongoing abdominal pain from ulceration and internal bleeding, while coping with disease-related depression and fatigue. The social stigma related to Crohn’s and colitis creates further isolation beyond the physical aspects of the disease. In the absence of a cure, current therapies are directed at maintaining freedom from symptoms. Most people require medication; when this fails, surgery is often required.

Lifestyle – Canada has among the highest rates of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis in the world, with almost 233,000 Canadian adults and children living with the debilitating inflammatory bowel diseases; 129,000 with Crohn’s and 140,000 with colitis. Today, Crohn’s and colitis impact 2.5 times the number of Canadians as multiple sclerosis.

The age of onset is most commonly in the early 20s, however, Canadian children are increasingly diagnosed, particularly those under the age of 10. Despite escalating rates of diagnosis, few people have even heard of these chronic, lifelong diseases.

In November Crohn’s and Colitis Canada launched its first-ever national public awareness campaign: Make it stop. For life. The campaign coincides with Crohn’s and colitis national awareness month and included bilingual public service announcements (PSAs) to media outlets across Canada across five platforms: television, radio, print, digital and transit.

Crohn’s and Colitis Canada is determined to bring the disease out from behind closed doors.

It’s time to end the stigma and talk frankly about a disease that affects far too many people, robbing them of opportunities in school, work and relationships.

As part of Crohn’s & Colitis Awareness Month, Crohn’s and Colitis Canada is hosted 14 education symposiums from coast-to-coast, with several local fundraising events taking place, including the Toronto All That Glitters Gala Nov. 18, featuring celebrity guest Howie Mandel. Some provincial legislatures and local sites in Quebec City, St. John’s, Winnipeg, Niagara Falls, and Vancouver were lit up in honour of Crohn’s & Colitis Awareness Month.

Province recognizes local businesses as Ontario Signature Experiences Ontario’s Highlands is gaining momentum as an experiential travel destination according to the Ontario Tourism Marketing Partnership Corporation’s (OTMPC) inaugural list of Ontario Signature Experiences (OSE). The program showcases the best and most unique tourism experiences in the province carefully selected to motivate visits to Ontario from global markets.

Three experiences in Ontario’s Highlands have achieved status as Ontario Signature Experiences, gaining prestige and marketplace credibility by fulfilling visitors’ expectations for enriching and engaging travel experiences, and reinforcing a strong travel brand for the Ontario’s Highlands region.

In order to become an Ontario Signature Experience, applicants must pass a rigorous evaluation and assessment process. Once businesses clear basic requirements, the OTMPC evaluates each entry to assess the organization’s ability to engage visitors in memorable travel activities that are inherently personal on an emotional, physical, spiritual, intellectual or social level.

“We are thrilled Ontario’s Highlands is so well represented on the inaugural list of Ontario Signature Experiences and commend the associated businesses for responding to

visitors’ desire for authentic travel experiences,” says Nicole Whiting, executive director of Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization (OHTO). “The OSE features experiences that will be used to portray Ontario in marketing, media and sales materials, and we now have an opportunity to tell our regional story and leverage it through a new platform that reaches wider audiences.”

Ontario’s Highlands is well known for outdoor adventure. Rafting on the Ottawa River, for example, is world renowned because of the warm water and high adventure rapids; but it’s the special touches, such as additional programming and connections with visitors, that sets OSE recipients OWL Rafting, Wilderness Tours, and RiverRun Rafting apart from other outdoor destinations.

The same is true for the canopy tour found at Haliburton Forest and Wild Life Reserve and the geology tour offered by Yours Outdoors in #MyHaliburtonHighlands.

Both OSE recipients have gone beyond simply providing an opportunity for visitors to get outside.

Through immersive programming, visitors leave feeling like they have truly connected with nature and with the people that have come to

steward the environment.

“We are very excited that our ‘Haliburton Rocks!’ adventure has been designated as an Ontario Signature Experience,” says Barrie Martin, experience broker for Yours Outdoors. “Not only will this recognition be good for business, it will raise the profile of Ontario’s Highlands as a destination that offers truly unique and memorable experiences.”

The final recipient, Madawaska Kanu Centre in Barry’s Bay, was the world’s first kayak and canoe school. Family-owned and operated by past Olympians and nestled in the heart of the Ottawa Valley, the centre has introduced whitewater paddling to visitors from around the globe and to all ages. Not only is the business known for high caliber instruction but everything from their accommodations to the food has a local personal touch.

Ontario’s Highlands is wellpositioned to attract travellers looking to expand their horizons through more meaningful experiences and the OHTO has established industry initiatives to assist members in developing and offering experiential tourism opportunities for visitors. For more information on OHTO membership, initiatives, or becoming an Ontario Signature Experience, visit www.ohto.ca.

GRAND ROUNDS Santa’s helpers are found working hard to support RVH The RVH Women’s Auxiliary is a small but mighty group of supporters who work tirelessly all year round to assist with fundraising goals for capital equipment and help provide patient comfort at the hospital.

Their efforts generate approximately $40,000 to $50,000 for RVH each year.

They also provide priceless assistance by doing things like stuffing all of the holiday card envelopes each year for the Foundation’s Tree of Lights campaign.

The involvement of local women with RVH can be traced back to the early 1900s when the Ladies Committee of RVH ran their first booth at the Renfrew Fair selling candy, fruit and ice cream. The present RVH Auxiliary was founded in 1945.

These elves are just finished preparing almost 700 of their famous tourtieres, which member Barb Symington says is one of their major annual fundraising activities.

Joan Hilliard on duty in the RVH Gift Shop.

Another is the HELPP Lotto (the hospital’s version of Nevada tickets), which are sold at Aikenhead’s Drug Store.

As a long-time supporter, Symington says it’s not very hard to choose RVH: “We have very talented and welltrained physicians and excellent staff.”

It’s those people, plus the ladies of the Auxiliary who attracted the current Auxiliary President Marilyn York to become involved about five years ago.

“I’ve never come across such a group of caring people in all of my life. We all work together with one common goal in mind.”

These women also volunteer to run the RVH Gift Shop which is now stocked full of unique Christmas gift ideas.

This is where Joan Hilliard can often be found.

She joined the Auxiliary nearly 50 years ago and says it has been a pleasure to help out behind the scenes over the years.

“This hospital keeps getting better and better,” she adds.

RVH Auxiliary members help out each year by stuffing the Tree of Lights holiday card. Back row, L to R, Joan Hilliard, Barb Symington, Marilyn York, Shauna Lemenchick, Hannah MacMillan (RVH Foundation).

Ottawa River caves to be bought by Nature Conservancy News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Did you know that Ottawa River Valley is home to the longest underwater cave system in Canada?

Beneath the surface of the Ottawa River lies a subterranean wonderland seldom seen by the human eye â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Ottawa River Caves.

The labyrinth measures more than 10 kilometres in length under several islands throughout the Ottawa River, and includes a four-kilometre section on the Ontario side of the river known as the Gervais Caves.

The Nature Conservancy of Canada is currently in negotiations to buy a 75-acre (30-hectare) shoreline parcel that contains most of the entrances to the Ontario portion of this remarkable series of caves in the Westmeath area up river from Arnprior.

A not-for-proďŹ t land conservation organization, the Nature Conservancy of Canada, owners of the Gillies Grove, must raise the ďŹ nal $87,000 for this project by Jan. 5, and it is asking for the help of people, corporations and foundations to meet this goal.

The most important features of the property are the karst landscape and sinkholes associated with the Gervais property.

Karst landforms are an important variant of landforms created by ďŹ&#x201A;owing water. Water is routed underground via solutional cave systems instead of ďŹ&#x201A;owing at the surface in normal river channels.

At least 13 of these sinkholes are connected to the Ottawa River through this extensive net-

work of underwater caverns.

Fish such as sturgeon, walleye and smallmouth bass can be found hiding in the nooks of the caves.

Above ground, the Gervais property is just as impressive. This site is full of life â&#x20AC;&#x201C; home to over 135 native vascular plant species and a number of at-risk plant species, including the endangered butternut tree, the provincially-rare Hookerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s orchid, regionally-rare moonseed and Hitchcockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sedge.

The mature forest features exceptionally large examples of Eastern white cedar, including two trees over 90 centimetres in diameter that are many centuries old.

The Ottawa River supports a rich diversity of freshwater mussels and at least 13 species of mussels have been recorded in this area. Freshwater mussels ďŹ lter bacteria, microscopic algae and organic material contained in the water, which improves water quality and contributes to the aquatic ecosystem.

The endangered and rare hickorynut freshwater mussel can be found in the Ottawa River and in order to ďŹ lter food and consume nutrients, mussel larvae must attach to a ďŹ sh, called a host.

Hickorynuts attach to lake sturgeon to consume their nutrients from the ďŹ shâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body until they transform into juvenile mussels and fall off. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our conservation work is driven by leading edge science that helps us identify the most

important places in Canada for protection. The Gervais property in Ottawa Valley is one of these places worth conserving,â&#x20AC;? said Nature Conservancy of Canada Ontario regional vicepresident James Duncan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By investing in conservation we are ensuring that our natural world remains a home for wildlife, a haven for recreation and a vital resource that cleans the air we breathe and the water we drink.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I must say, having explored the Ottawa Valley landscape for some 45 years both in a professional and private capacity, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never seen a place like this and I think it is an extraordinary and important conservation opportunity,â&#x20AC;? said Ottawa Riverkeeper co-founder Daniel Brunton.

Brunton conducted site assessments of the Gervais property as an independent ecological consultant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We spent a total of 752 hours underwater

surveying the caves. There is no question the Ottawa Valley caves are the longest underwater caves in Canada (so far), but they are also signiďŹ cant Canadian caves in their own right,â&#x20AC;? said Dr. David Sawatzky, a retired Canadian Armed Forces lieutenant-colonel, doctor, diver and expert on cave diving, who spent over 15 years mapping the Ottawa River caves.

Ecologists say the caves are the highest priority conservation property in the Ottawa River Valley representing nationally signiďŹ cant earth and life science features, as the property supports nationally and provincially designated species at risk and regionally signiďŹ cant vegetation and ďŹ&#x201A;ora.

Since 1962 the Nature Conservancy of Canada and its partners have helped to protect more than 2.7 million acres (over 1.1 million hectares) coast to coast, including 178,000 acres (72,034 hectares) in Ontario. For more information, visit natureconservancy.ca/on.

News - A fondness for shopping and the spirit of giving as we approach Christmastime inspired Melanie Lapierre to rally her coworkers to give for a good cause.

The RCCDSB finance department collected enough funds amongst themselves to enable Lapierre to purchase eight brand new children’s snowsuits.

Members of the finance department presented the snowsuits to Lyn Smith of the Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network (CPAN) for Operation Snowsuit, an annual program that typically provides snowsuits, boots, mitts and hats for more than 300 children locally.

“Thank you so much,” said Smith, “I really appreciate the help. It means a lot when kids come up to me and say thank you.”

The organization collects funds and/or outdoor winter wear for children ranging from newborn babies to youth who are 18 and require adult sizes.

“We’re not just collecting what we need,” noted

Busy outside the classroom Charlene Edwards-Budden Raider Review

The students at Renfrew Collegiate Institute have been busy outside of the classroom.

On Dec. 4 the Senior Parenting Class at RCI helped the Junior and Senior Kindergarten students from Queen Elizabeth School write their letters to Santa.

The JK and SK students in Heather Raudssus’ and Dora Vanderwoude’s class having been pairing up every two weeks since October. The Parenting class, taught by Charlene Edwards-Budden was treated to a special play performance by some of the JK and SK students before scribing letters to Santa. The young students were able to print their names, and cut out pictures of items they wanted to share with Santa, while senior students helped with either spelling or writing down items that the students wished Santa could bring them.

On Wednesday, Dec. 3, seven classes walked to the O’Brien Theatre after lunch to view The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 movie.

Students viewed the science fiction adventure film and expanded their understanding of characteriza-

On Wednesday night, Dec. 3, eight RCI students who placed first, second or third in the local Remembrance Contest attended an awards ceremony hosted by the Renfrew

Royal Canadian Legion.

Congratulations to Marissa de Boer, Leyalee Alsaadi, and Meredith Abraham who also placed first at the Zone competition. The essay, poem and poster will move on to the next level of judging.

Following the July 2013 floods in Toronto, some homeowners were faced with severely inadequate coverage, contractors abandoning the job and no assistance from their insurer. It’s a cautionary tale about the pitfalls of chasing the lowest advertised premium.

Brokers provide value to their customers with good advice about the products and coverages they need, and support when they need it the most.

You need insurance on your home.

You know you need fire, you need theft and coverage for other damage and possibilities.

For whatever reason, we get caught up in this world of “What’s the cheapest insurance?”

They brag about it on television, “Call Us! We’re $200 less. You’re going to save money!”

It isn’t about that. It’s about making sure that you protect the memories. And pay for it right!

This weeks puzzle answers in next weeks issue

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23

Aries, although you are full of excitement this week, rein in some of those feelings so you can focus on the tasks at hand. Use your energy to your advantage.

Someone may catch you off guard this week, Libra. This person will bring a welcome surprise, so look forward to this unexpected encounter.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22

Taurus, motivation may not be strong this week, so begin with some menial tasks around the house and build up to bigger plans.

Eventually you will find a groove.

Back up your promises with decisive action, Scorpio. That’s the only way to prove to others that your word means something and you are committed to honoring your commitments.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21

Gemini, try to avoid focusing on just one issue for too long. Sometimes you simply must trust your instincts and forge ahead anyway. Let past experience guide you this week.

There may be more to the big picture than you are seeing, Sagittarius.

Gather the facts before you jump to any conclusions. You may just see things from a different perspective.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20

Cancer, avoid the temptation to take on too many responsibilities this week. If you don’t, you might not get much done. Think before you accept more work.

Capricorn, you are riding high and looking to share your good fortune with others. Make the most of this chance to improve the lives of those around you.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18

Financial matters are looming and a decision must be made, Leo. Don’t be overcome with anxiety, as all you need to do is carefully examine your finances to come up with a solution.

Aquarius, you have an idea about how to tackle a difficult obstacle, but someone crosses your path with a different agenda. Perhaps there’s a way to work together.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20

Spontaneity beckons, Virgo, even though you are a careful planner who puts a lot of thought into your decisions. Overthinking is more hassle than it’s worth this week.

Pisces, avoid open conflict without being a pushover this week. Find the middle ground and try to understand another’s perspective.

You compared numerous listings online for a ‘fixer upper’.

And managed NOT to be outbid on a great home.

Why not compare home insurance rates online, too?

At ComparaSave.com you can compare and save on rates for car, home and travel insurance, plus mortgages and credit cards. From Canada’s top financial institutions. All in one place. It’s easy and it’s free.
