Essex County Road crews ready for winter

Ward One election results challenged

ESSEX COUNTY – Essex County road crews started night rotations November 25 in preparation for the coming winter.

The County is responsible for salting and plowing more than 1,500 km of roadway. Crews maintain a 24-hour weather watch, including road patrols, and are dispatched from four permanent depots and one seasonal depot spaced strategically across the county.

Annual winter maintenance expenditures average about $3 million. Crews respond on average to between 70 and 80 snow events per season.

About 5,000 tonnes of road salt have been delivered in recent weeks, topping up a supply of between 8,000 and 10,000 tonnes left over from last season. On average, the County uses about 18,000 tonnes of salt every winter and has the capacity to store 25,000 tonnes.

A GPS is used to track application of salt to ensure safety and environmental standards are met. Crews pre-wet the salt, which makes it work faster and at lower temperatures, and they apply a salt-brine solution to the pavement ahead of snowfalls, which helps prevent snow and ice accumulation.

The County maintains 18 salt/plow routes. Thirteen of those trucks are county vehicles – combination trucks capable of salting, plowing and winging, or pushing snow back from the road. Five trucks are brought in on a winter contract to handle the remaining five routes.

CHATHAM-KENT – The Municipality of Chatham-Kent has been served with an application from Robert Salvatore Powers challenging the results of the October 22 Municipal Election regarding the Ward 1 (West Kent) councillor’s race.

The application (which does not challenge the results in any other ward or that of the mayor’s position) will be heard before the Superior Court of Justice. Powers was a mayoral candidate in the October Municipal Election.

John Norton, Chief Legal Officer and General Manager Community Development, said the municipality will take whatever direction is given by the courts.

Judy Smith, Chief Returning Officer and Clerk, had the responsibility of overseeing the election and confirmed the results October 24. The official results showed Mark Authier and Melissa Harrigan as the successful candidates with 1,991 and 1,682 votes respectively while Bryon Fluker (1,050), Mark Pastorius (252) and Jordan Dell (88) were not elected.

Norton said since the matter is now before the courts, the municipality will not make further comment. The matter is scheduled to be heard in court January 2.

Happy trails….

Having been away for a week in the northern Ontario wilderness, complete with satellite dish and many other amenities, we spent a fair amount of time watching football, hockey and movies.

It’s funny how your taste in movies changes when you’re with a bunch of guys in a cabin, jostling for position on an old beat up couch, with bag of chips in one hand and a cold beer in the other, flatulence flying in several directions.

Mark Ribble At home, I’ll sit and watch the odd Hallmark-type movie or romantic comedy, but up in the hunt camp we had John Wayne movies and all sorts of action films to keep us entertained.

I’ve been a fan of westerns since I was a kid.

That stems from some of my favourite TV shows like The Rifleman, Gunsmoke and Bonanza.

Movie-wise, I remember some greats, including Rio Bravo, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Outlaw Josie Wales.

And they can sometimes be funny. I loved Two Mules for Sister Sara and I thought Cat Ballou was great too, immediately falling in love with a young Jane Fonda. And let’s not forget Blazing Saddles.

More recently, Unforgiven and Tombstone tell the tales of the wild west.

I think the westerns have evolved a bit from the ‘spaghetti’ westerns of the 1960s and ’70s to the more historical westerns of today.

It’s hard to find a good western, but they are out there.

There’s something about the whole cowboy comes-to-town, fights the bad guy and gets the girl premise that keeps on working.

John Wayne started a lot of the hype for western movie fans way back in the late 1930s and Clint Eastwood carried the torch after that. And who can forget Roy Rogers?

While there’s no longer a clear figurehead for western movies, some great roles have been there for the likes of Gene Hackman, Nick Nolte and Jeff Bridges over the past few years.

Netflix has recognized the lack of modern westerns and they’ve attempted to fill the void with a couple of decent western series like Godless and Longmire.

My wife tolerates the westerns I like to watch, just as I tolerate some of the romantic chick-flicks she prefers. Relationships are all about compromise, so I guess we do well with that part. And along the way, each finds something entertaining in the choice of the other and we’ve both actually enjoyed movies we may not have otherwise watched on our own.

Being a movie buff from way back, it’s fun to see some of the lesserknown character actors appear in films when you’re not expecting it.

If we had a nickel for every time one of us said, “Hey, wasn’t he in that other movie?”, we’d be rich. But that’s part of the fun of watching a movie, isn’t it?

Strong support for Talking Over Turkey 650 turkeys with all the trimmings will be handed out

By Bryan Jessop

LEAMINGTON – A local couple is once again ensuring dinner tables across the region are covered with traditional meal options for the holiday season.

Mike and Deanna Diab are presenting Leamington and surrounding areas with the third yearly installment of Talking Over Turkey, a charitable project where Christmas turkeys and the accompanying fixings are collected through donations and support from local individuals, businesses and other organizations. This year, a collection of 650 turkeys — each with the trimmings commonly associated with Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners — will be handed out Saturday, Dec. 15 on Sherk Street near what was formerly the Heinz grading station, across the street from Security One. “We’re really excited about doing it again this year,” explained Mike Diab. “It’s all coming together beautifully.

The generosity we’re seeing is incredible and the more we get, the more people in need that we can reach.”

Talking Over Turkey began in 2016 after the Diabs took inspiration from a similar event in Windsor organized by the Mikhail family in partnership with Tim Hortons. Each year, the city-based event is able to give away 500 turkeys to underprivileged families in the area. Two years ago, the Diabs took on their first Talking Over Turkey as a ‘pay it forward’ gesture, setting out on their own to collect 50 turkeys. Last year, with the backing of local greenhouse operations and other businesses, the project collected 300 turkeys to give away.

“It just kind of ballooned out of control in a good way,” Mike said. “We hope it’s something that will inspire others to help out people in need.”

Scouts ‘may’ return to Wheatley

By Sheila McBrayne

WHEATLEY - After a short hiatis, Wheatley may have its Scouting program back.

The Scouts building on Talbot Street West has been quiet for the past year, but the expenses associated with the building continue. A community meeting was held on Monday, November 19 to see if there was interest in bringing scouting back to Wheatley.

“It was a very positive meeting. We had 14 people and there seems to be interest,” said Larry McDonald.

Those present expressed interest in becoming leaders.

The group plans to meet again on Monday, December 3 upstairs at the Wheatley Legion to form a new committee. This meeting is open to anyone interested in volunteering as a leader or if you have kids interested in Scouts.

Several community groups have stepped forward to support a scouting program in Wheatley. “We have a good start on everything,” said McDonald.

Previously, Talking Over Turkey’s donation station was set up at the corner of Oak Street and Erie Street. Mike Diab explained that with overwhelming traffic, the new Sherk Street location was seen as being both safer and more convenient. This year, the event will be orchestrated by a team the Diabs hope to see reach between 20 and 25 volunteers, which will include staff members from the Leamington branch of CIBC. Anyone interested in volunteering or making donations can contact Mike and Deanna by email at tot@bell.net.

This year, contributions are arriving as food, money and services to help both the collection and distribution processes run smoothly. Supporters thus far have included Zehrs Kingsville, McDonald’s, Nature Fresh Farms, Hub International, Highbury Canco, Jump Realty/Stacey DiNiro of Kingsville, Orora Group, Naples Pizza Leamington, Kimball Building Supply of Essex, Aphria, AlphaKor Group, FreshCo Leamington and Kingsville, Sunset Farms, Noah Homes Builders, Dominos Leamington, Lakeside Bakery, Cardinal Carter Secondary School, The Lesson Lounge, Tire Tyme, Gildan Clothing, Eric Harder Heating and Cooling, Canadian Tire Leamington, Real Canadian Super Store Leamington, Source For Sports Leamington, Festival Tents, Food Basics Leamington, Frank Abbruzzese, Paul and Suzanne George, and Pier C Produce.

Talking Over Turkey has inspired charitable acts from not only Leamington and Kingsville regions, but across the county. Mike Diab noted that a 15-year-old Windsor girl, who had been saving her money for two years to some day get a tattoo, decided to donate the money to this cause instead.

For more information on this year’s Talking Over Turkey, visit the project’s Facebook page.

Volunteers with the 2017 edition of Talking Over Turkey unload a large donation of potatoes near the corner of Oak and Erie Streets. This year, the non-profit event will take place Saturday, Dec. 15 near the former Heinz grading station on Sherk Street.

Dibbley receives Legion Branch Service Award WHEATLEY – Ronald “Turk” Dibbley was selected to receive Wheatley Legion’s 2018 Branch Service Award. He was presented with the award at the Armistice Eve Banquet held Nov. 10 at the Legion.

The award was created to recognize members who are the backbone of the Legion and who have never held or are not currently holding office, but who quietly and in the background continue to be there when needed.

Dibbley has spent almost 60 years serving his country, his community and the local Branch of the Legion.

He joined the Royal Canadian Navy in 1954 at the age of 19 and was discharged in January 1959. Throughout the years, he served in almost all executive positions at Wheatley Legion and chaired many committees such as Poppy, the Santa Claus Parade, the Red Shield Appeal and more. He took an active part in Remembrance Services at local schools and at the Branch. For many years he was in the Branch Colour Party and Pipe Band. He has helped with many Branch maintenance projects – both large and small, volunteered regularly at Meat Draws, Seniors Dinners and Fish Fries, and also has actively encouraged and recruited young members to participate in Branch activities. His own special project, along with his sidekick the late Mark Beaupre, was the Turk ’n Beaup St. Paddy’s Day Celebration, which to this day is very popular and is now, with just as much enthusiasm, run

by Turk’s daughter Roberta and Beaup’s daughter Sandy.

Pictured, Turk was presented with the Branch Service Award by Wheatley Legion’s 1st Vice-President Jan Watson.

Paterson lauds Council effort over the years

By Mike Thibodeau

Mayor John Paterson heaped praise on Leamington councillors and as a recommendation to the incoming Council suggested the challenge is to “keep the greater good in the forefront.”

The Monday, Nov. 26th Council meeting was Paterson’s last, completing an eight-year stint as mayor.

He was first elected as a councillor in 2006.

All councillors thanked Paterson for his years of service, with many underscoring his “patience and direction”.

Paterson was defeated by Deputy-Mayor Hilda MacDonald in the late October election.

The first meeting for the new Council is Dec. 3.

Paterson read a lengthy list of projects completed over the last four years and told Council they were “our accomplishments.”

“Thank you for your co-operation... our Council is a shining example” of what one should be, he said.

“Over the past four years we’ve done more than any John Paterson other council before us.”

Paterson also admitted that one of the town’s greatest challenges in his term of office was the loss of a major employer, the Heinz company, in 2014.

He also thanked the senior staff members of the town.

In an interview he said his own business as an investment advisor is going to keep him busy in the future, and he has no other thoughts about politics right now.

Heart of Essex Chorus performs During the Christmas season, the award-winning Heart of Essex Chorus, under the direction of Lois Kelly, performs at various venues around Essex County.

The group had the pleasure of singing at Cindy’s Home & Garden in Kingsville on Nov. 17 to a very appreciative audience of holiday shoppers. They also appeared at Choirs in Concert St. Anne’s Church in Tecumseh on Nov. 25, and St. Simon & Jude Church’s Christmas Concert in Belle River on Nov. 30.

The group’s musical tour of Essex County continues with a performance at Devonshire Mall, Windsor, from 2-4 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 2.

Chartered in 1985, this Sweet Adeline chorus takes pride in the ability to perform and entertain in 4-part a cappella harmony in barbershop style. Their music includes special arrangements of ballads and upbeat

songs. The group cherishes their camaraderie, nurtured through a love of music, and welcomes member from all walks of life from Essex and Kent counties and Windsor. They meet regularly to practice, socialize, perform

and make beautiful music together. Ladies, come join in the fun, the music and the friendship. For more information, call 519-776-7137 or visit the website at www. heartofessex.com

Five Caldwell First Nation Band members including the unseated Chief Mary Duckworth held a peaceful protest where the Band Council was scheduled to meet Monday, November 26.

No one was at the band office for the meeting as an email was sent to band members stating that an incamera meeting was necessary at a different location.

“We’re asking for a full election,” said Duckworth, who was elected January 20th of this year, but was put on a leave of absence (unseated) by council and was locked out of the band office when she did decide to return. “We’re asking for transparency and accountability.”

Duckworth stated that the council has not held regular meetings and the next regular election is not slated for more than two years. But, according to the Caldwell First Nation website, the position of chief is vacant, and a by-election for that position only is slated for Feb. 16, 2019.

At the last general membership meeting on November 17, band member

Miranda Thibeault put forth a motion to hold a full election, but the meeting was suspended before the motion was voted on.

There are 362 band members in the Caldwell First Nation.

Duckworth explained that any band member can put a motion forward at a general membership meeting to be voted on, and they did not allow that to happen. “That is not the way we do business,” stated Duckworth.

Nikki Orosz, Director of Operations at Caldwell First

Nation was unavailable for comment at press time, Tuesday morning.

Children who didn’t have a chance to have Dinner With Santa before the Kingsville Santa Claus Parade last weekend were able to sit down for breakfast with the man himself on Sunday, Nov. 25 at the Kingsville Lakeside Park Pavilion.

Dozens of youngsters took advantage of the chance to sit down with Santa and share their wish list before feasting on a breakfast of pancakes, sausage and eggs. The kids also were invited to make a holiday craft to take home.

The event was sponsored by Abraham Orthodontics.

In addition to a delicious breakfast, youngsters attending Sunday morning’s Breakfast With Santa were also invited to make some holiday crafts. Amora Moscuzza, 5, of Kingsville, makes a Rudolf craft with a little help from her dad, Anthony Moscuzza.

KPS students hear local stories of refugees’ plight

By Pat Bailey

They all had their own personal stories of war, hunger, danger and leaving loved ones behind. But there was a common thread in each and every story of fleeing their homeland, one of being welcomed with open arms in their new home — Canada.

On Thursday morning, Nov. 22, refugees spent time with Grade 6, 7 and 8 students at Kingsville Public School at a roundtable session and panel discussion on the plight of refugees from around the world.

Giovanni’s story of survival

Community Council representatives, a university professor, a representative of Southwestern Ontario Gleaners, Kingsville Mayor Nelson Santos and others.

After reading the book “Refugee” by Alan Gratz, teacher Sharon Jones said the topic sparked a real curiosity in her students, as well as a desire to help.

The students were looking for answers, said Jones, as to what was their role when it comes to global issues and how they can help out within their own community.

So Jones and her fellow teachers, Chris Pettypiece and Keri Kaufmann, approached several experts in the field and hosted a roundtable discussion to try and get some answers to their questions.

Quiring knows from experience

For Giovanni, his arrival in Canada elicited immediate fear after enduring a 2½ hour walk from the New York State border to a winter wonderland in Quebec, only to be greeted

by RCMP, police cruisers and the words “you’re under arrest”.

Once they explained their tale of escaping their dangerous homeland of Colombia to the officers, in their broken English, the Colombian refugee, his sister, mom and the family cat were assured everything would be okay.

Gio told the group that as soon as he got the word “refugee” out of his mouth, he noticed an immediate change on the officer’s face and a smile appeared.

After buying them warm winter boots and food with their own money, the officers whisked them away to the Canadian Border Services Agency checkpoint where they remained for two days.

What happened next, Giovanni said, played out like a movie.

He said officers there then secured them three seats on a Greyhound bus and they were on their way, despite immediate objections by the driver who originally refused to allow the family pet aboard.

After some urging by the officers though, the entire family was on their way and the start of their new life in Canada.

As the bus pulled away, Giovanni said all he could see was a large Canadian flag out his window, seemingly welcoming him and his family – and he began to cry.

More than four years later, Giovanni said the family had their hearing a year ago and were granted refugee status.

Now a student at the University of Windsor, Giovanni hopes to follow in the footsteps of his parents who served as police officers in his homeland.

Giovanni was joined by fellow refugees and several professionals who have helped them get settled in their new land, including Greater Essex County District School Board support workers, representatives of the New Canadians Centre of Excellence, a representative of the Multicultural Council of Windsor, an immigration lawyer, South Essex

Students struck by guests’ stories Owen Neufeld, a Grade 7 KPS student, said he was struck by the stories of survival by the guests — some happy, some sad.

And while it’s admittedly not a competition, Owen said he felt proud that their guests had chosen Canada over the United States when it came down to fleeing their own nations.

Grade 8 student Holly Gale was touched by the amazing stories she heard Thursday morning and wondered aloud how life would’ve been different for the refugees if they had not made the decision to call Canada their new home.

The panel for the morning’s session included Julie MacFarlane, Bernie Mayer, Nelson Santos, Breanne John, Rima Nohra, Tina Quiring, Marsella Diaz, Daniel Winbaum, Carolyn Warkentin, Fatoon, Bob Cowper, Rachel Olivera, Badiah, Hanan, Sharon George, Pastor Bagley, Matthew House, Giovanni and Sophia.

Fatoon feels like one of the lucky ones Fatoon celebrated her second anniversary on Canadian soil, with dozens of curious youngsters anxious to hear her story.

“It’s a special day for me,” she said. But it was definitely a journey.

The Leamington mother of four spent a great deal of time in Istanbul before boarding a plane full of refugees on their way to a better life in Canada.

Now in the country for two years, Fatoon said she feels like one of the lucky ones.

Sponsored by a church, she said they had the benefit of housing and a monthly stipend provided for a year while the family settled into their new home and new country.

The church, she said, “was like a family”.

And of course there were hurdles — like learning English.

With the help and support of the South Essex Community Council’s special programming for newcomers, Fatoon continues to learn the language and has gained a circle of friends.

Despite the fear of being isolated or mistreated, Fatoon said the Canadian people have been more than welcoming.

“I don’t feel any different,” she said, the Canadian people are accepting and respectful of different religions and cultures.

Colombian refugee Giovanni shared his story at a special round table session with Kingsville Public School students Thursday morning.

Tina Quiring, one of the founders of the Southwestern Ontario Gleaners, was amazed by the morning’s discussions.

“It all starts here,” she told one of her groups, “with an idea.”

Quiring said she could relate to the plight of newcomers to Canada — she was one herself as a youngster, along with her parents, four brothers and two sisters.

They lived in their car and spent one summer living in a bus, she told her group.

Quiring said she was forced to forego her own education in Grade 5 to help her family make ends meet.

“We were never homeless though,” said Quiring, “only houseless — we always had each other.”

Her fortunes turned around as a young adult after marrying her husband Neil. Quiring said her husband had a successful business, which allowed her the luxury of being able to retire at just 33.

But she never stopped working, instead she focused her energies on raising her own two children and then coming up with an idea to help feed the hungry around the world.

Quiring told the students that eight people die of hunger every 90 minutes, which is unacceptable considering the amount of food wasted or buried in the landfill.

Gleaners, she told them, takes donated produce, which is chopped and then dehydrated to make a nutritious soup mix to feed the hungry. She said that so far they have shipped the soup packages to 14 countries.

“This just started with a thought,” Quiring told her attentive group. “There is no need for people on this planet to go hungry.”

While not everyone has the means to donate financially, Quiring told the youngsters that everyone has the ability to give in some way. She said 700 people volunteer their time at Gleaners, some regularly and others whenever time allows.

I talk to you and place a kiss upon your beautiful face.

Night market a success

By Bryan Jessop

Teacher-student pair Erin Armstrong (as Mother) and Xavier Otero-Jones (Amahl) of Abridged Opera will present Amahl and the Night Visitors on Friday, November 30 in Leamington.

Abridged Opera to present Amahl and the Night Visitors LEAMINGTON – The independent opera company, Abridged Opera will present their fourth opera of 2018 from November 30 until December 2 at various churches throughout Leamington, Windsor and Tecumseh.

Abridged Opera continues its 2018-2019 season with Menotti’s opera, Amahl and the Night Visitors. It was the first ever opera written for television and was broadcast every Christmas season in the 1950s and 1960s. Composer GianCarlo Menotti specifically wrote in the score that Amahl must be played by a boy soprano, which is how director and Mother #1, Erin Armstrong, came up with the idea to have studentteacher pairs come together in this collaborative project.

Professional singers and teachers Erin Armstrong, Amelia Daigle, and Lesley Andrew will take on the role of the Mother. While students Xavier Otero-Jones, twins Ben and Josh Zajac, and Braylon Belanger, respectively, will be playing the title role.

The opera provides a snapshot of an evening in the life of Mother and son as the Christmas star shines brightly and the three kings stop in for a brief rest on their way to Bethlehem. Nearby shepherds, sung by the Music Moves Kids Senior Choir, offer food and drink to the travellers. The kings will be sung by Windsor-Essex natives Eric Miinch and John Holland, and Norman E. Brown of Ottawa. Music director and pianist is William Shookoff from Toronto’s Opera by Request.

The opera has a running time of 60 minutes and is presented in English.

In Leamington, Amahl and the Night Visitors will be performed on Friday, November 30 at 7:30 p.m. at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, 311 Sherk St. The role of Mother will be performed by Erin Armstrong, with Xavier Otero-Jones in the role of Amahl.

Call 226-346-8372 for tickets: $25 for adults, $10 for students. Bring a canned good to support the Leamington Food Bank and save $5 on the price of admission.

There will also be several performances in Windsor and Tecumseh. Visit www.AbridgedOpera.com for more information.

Friendship Club enjoys a great afternoon of food and fellowship

By Bonnie Dawson

WHEATLEY – “Good food, good company, good listening music and a wonderful atmosphere. You can’t ask for anything better,” to quote Anthony T. Hincks. As for the delicious potluck luncheon and entertainment on Wednesday, Nov. 14 when the Wheatley & District Friendship Club hosted the Tilbury Leisure Centre, that pretty much says it all.

Thanks to the volunteers who helped set up tables, prepared food and the many hands who helped with clean-up.

The three Share the Wealth draw winners were Robert Lapsa, Lionel Knights and Bob McKee. Entertainment for the afternoon was Rick Taves & Company. The company included Lionel Knights and David Light. They began playing right after the meal while the clean-up was going on and continued on with an eclectic selection of music. Rick played the accordion, Lionel the ukulele and David the guitar. Some of the songs they

played were Red Roses For a Blue Lady, Tennessee Waltz, Hey Good Lookin’, Four Strong Winds, Everything Stops For Tea, “Your Cheatin’ Heart, Enjoy Yourself, Careless Love, Worried Man, Goodnight Irene, and many others. Thank you Rick, Lionel and David for an enjoyable afternoon.

Bunny DeJonge from the Tilbury Leisure Centre thanked the Friendship Club for the wonderful meal and entertainment, and said the Leisure Centre is looking forward to having the Friendship Club back to Tilbury in the spring.

It was announced that Heather Vannieuwenburg would open up the Heritage Society & Museum upstairs if any of the Tilbury members were interested before heading back to Tilbury.

Wheatley & District Friendship Club members met again on Nov. 21. The meeting began with the singing of O Canada led by Lena Janik. The blessing was then given. President Harold Dundas mentioned the passing of Donna Beaupre and of Audrey Ives’ sister.

Speed humps on Forest Avenue

By Mike Thibodeau

LEAMINGTON – As with many busy streets in town, residents are complaining about speeders. And to curb it, Leamington Council has decided to implement certain measures on Forest Ave., the street that is the main access route to Seacliff Park.

At the Nov. 13 meeting, Council agreed to install two speed humps on the street, build a “tabling” or slightly raised effect at one intersection, and a turn around at the south end.

The design was one of several presented to Council, and is a segment of the major rebuilding of Erie, Conover and Stewart this year.

Infrastructure director Rob Sharon said speeding was the primary concern of residents raised at a public meeting last summer. “Speed humps are very effective,” said Sharon. The humps would be similar to those installed in the north driveway of the Sherk Complex. He said that speed bumps almost require vehicles to come to a stop to go over them, while humps just slow them down.

Engineering project manager Andy DelBrocco estimated the cost of building humps at about $3,000 each and “can be done quickly.” The tabling effect at the intersection of Conover is designed to raise the awareness to drivers. Sharon said the residents were not in favor of having the entrance to the street “narrowed” which is another road engineering effect the town is using to slow motorists.

To a question of snow plowing, Sharon said the drivers must be educated about the humps. The town will leave the curb as is on the east side of the street, but will build a new low curb on the west side so vehicles can continue to angle park.

The downside for some councillors is the loss of about 15 parking spaces that are needed to build in the changes, raised barriers at the humps and intersection, so cars cannot simply pull to the right and go around the hump. “We lose the parking but we need to deal with the speeding,” said administrator Peter Neufeld.

“We hope we can fix this... it has been a huge problem this summer,” said Deputy-Mayor Hilda MacDonald.

IB Diploma Program at Cardinal Carter LEAMINGTON – Cardinal Carter Catholic Secondary School is now a full-fledged International Baccalaureate World school, after having received final certification last week to offer the globally recognized Diploma Program there.

“This is extremely exciting news for our school community,” said Nancy Sarkis, principal at Cardinal Carter.

“The IB program brings a new level of academic credibility to our school and expands the variety of innovative programs that we offer to meet the needs of our students.”

Established in 1968, International Baccalaureate programs aim to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who are motivated to succeed by offering specific programs that are geared to students in certain stages of their development.

Schools must be authorized to deliver IB programs and currently, more than 4,000 schools around the world are established as IB schools.

For the last two years, Cardinal Carter has been in the candidacy phase

while it waited for final approval to be recognized as an IB World School.

During that time, teachers were being trained by IB program consultants on all aspects of the program in preparation for delivering the curriculum to the inaugural class in September of 2019.

“Our board was the first to offer an IB program in this region when we launched one at Assumption 15 years ago,” said Joseph Ibrahim, Superintendent of Education. “Since then we’ve expanded our offerings, and provide the most IB programs in Windsor-Essex. With the amount of experience we have, we’re the established leader in IB education in this region.”

Mary DiMenna, the school’s Trustee, said she’s thrilled that Cardinal Carter is now an official IB school.

“The staff and students at Cardinal Carter have proven time and again that they can perform academically at an extremely high level,” she said. “Having an IB Diploma Program broadens the horizons for our students and opens up a whole new world of post-secondary opportunities for them.”

Hey Jingle: Kids’ Christmas Musical at The Bank Theatre LEAMINGTON – Faith Mennonite Church and The Bank Theatre will present Hey Jingle (A Kids’ Christmas Musical) on Friday, December 7 and Saturday, December 8 at 7 p.m. at The Bank Theatre.

Hey Jingle is an original production written by Janice Founk and co-directed with Mary Kraus. Founk couldn’t be more excited, saying, “After years of elementary school teaching, Mary Kraus and I are excited to perform with kids again on stage. The script was inspired by our mom, who at 95 learned to manage a Google Home.”

Producer of the event and volunteer for 8 years at The Bank Theatre, Barbara Martens is thrilled to once again work in partnership with Faith Mennonite Church and bring this production to The Bank Theatre stage. “Five years ago

I became involved in Christmas programming for kids. The South Essex Community Council’s (SECC) new Canadian youth were delighted to be on a stage. Some had never seen a stage before. For two years, SECC wrote a short play and performed it as part of The Bank Theatre storytelling and Santa program for kids,” she said.

So what happens when two seniors in the Last Tomato Retirement Home find their old CD player is broken and they can’t play their favourite Christmas music? Coming to their rescue, their son unexpectedly presents them with a piece of modern “Jingle” technology. Although initially exasperated, they not only come to discover that this “Jingle lady” indeed plays Christmas music, but also are reassured that “kids these days” DO know the real reason for the season.

“This year, I am so delighted to give local playwright, Janice Founk, an opportunity to direct her own production, “Hey Jingle (A Kids’ Christmas Musical),” said Martens.

“Providing a venue for adults and children to express themselves in the arts is what The Bank Theatre is all about for me and is the reason I became involved with the theatre.

Director Janice Founk went on to say, “All ages will enjoy the energy of local children on stage performing this production of Hey Jingle. These kids will be acting, singing and dancing their way into Christmas!”

The Bank Theatre is located at 10 Erie St. S. in Leamington. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., show begins at 7 p.m. Tickets are $5 and available at Wharrams’s Jewellery in Leamington or online by visiting www.banktheatre.com

Coats For Kids

Gino DelCiancio and his ’55 Chevy at the 2018 Bothwell Car Show.

Two award-winning 1955 Chevrolets

A local family tries out some new winter and spring coats for size during the South Essex Community Council’s annual Coats For Kids event at its Talbot Street East location Monday, Nov. 12. The three-day charitable event was organized with the support of Fletcher’s Cleaners and Kennedy Cleaners and made more than 500 coats available along with accessories such as boots, toques, mittens, scarves and gloves. At the end of the three-day period, 155 families were served while about 25 visitors who couldn’t find a coat of the proper size were placed on a contact list to be called when suitable winter wear is donated through the program. To make a request for coats of a specific size, visit the SECC’s Facebook page or contact the organization at 519-326-8629.

Born in 1957, Gino DelCiancio was about five years old in Leamington when he and mother visited a nearby farm where a ’55 Chevy was parked in a bush. Gino climbed in and pretended to drive it. Thus began his lifelong love of 1955 Chevrolets!

He bought his first ’55 Chevy at age 18 after spotting an ad in the Detroit Free Press. It was original and Gino finished a nut-and-bolt restoration by the early ’80s. His ...

Southpoint Sun - Section B-1

Atom Stars give it their all at Lakeshore tourney LEAMINGTON/WHEATLEY – The Southpoint Atom Stars took part in the Lakeshore Lightning Tournament Nov. 16-18, which consisted of 10 teams in their division.

Southpoint 1 – Lakeshore 1

The Stars first game took place bright and early Friday morning with Karly Franklin between the pipes. It was a constant battle back and forth. Finally, in the third period, Taylor Lefaive popped it into the net, assisted by Natalie Edwards, to put the Stars in the lead. With 22 seconds left in the third, Lakeshore Lightning Blue found the net and the game ended in a 1-1 tie.

Sun County 2 – Southpoint 1

Later that morning the Stars battled the South County Predators (Harrow).

There were no goals in the first period.

The Predators scored shortly into the second period; however, the Stars retaliated with a goal from Ava Carreiro. With two minutes left in the second, the Predators scored again.

There were no other goals to be found, so the game ended with a 2-1 loss for the Stars.

Southpoint 1 – LaSalle 1

Game three of the tournament was played out Saturday afternoon against the LaSalle Sabre Cats. There were no goals in the first period as Alexis Lamb and Payton Insley played a strong defensive game. Suddenly, halfway through the second, the Sabrecats found the net to take the lead. The Stars offense battled back and with five minutes left in the third, Ava Carreiro scored a goal, assisted by Taylor Lafaive, to end the game in a 1-1 tie.

Southpoint 11 – Haldimand 0

The Stars were on fire Saturday evening as they battled the Haldimand Rivercats to walk away with an 11-0 win.

Emma Brown and Bella Pannunzio rocked defense and goals were scored by Natalie Edwards (1), Alexis Lamb (2), Grace Bedard (1), Alexa Thiele (1), Chloe Taylor (1), Ava Carreiro (4) and Emma Brown (1). This big win advanced them to the quarterfinals Sunday morning against the South County Predators (Amherstburg).

Sun County 2 – Southpoint 0

A constant battle back and forth during the first two periods of this quarterfinal game resulted in no goals, then a few minutes into the third period the Predators scored. The Stars continued to fiercely battle back; however, the puck just could not find the net and the game ended 2-0.

This ended the journey for the Stars. Goalie Karly Franklin and all the other Stars played their hearts out during the tournament, which made all the coaches, parents and fans very proud.

Good start for KDHS boys hockey

By Bryan Jessop

KINGSVILLE – In the early stages of 2018-19, inexperience doesn’t seem to be a problem for the Kingsville Cavaliers boys hockey team.

The Cavs kicked off the new hockey season with a 4-0 win over the L’Essor Aigles Wednesday, Nov. 21 at the Atlas Tube Centre in Lakeshore, where WECSSAA’s 12 Tier I teams gathered to get the regular season underway. The teams were paired off and distributed between the facility’s three rinks in a first-of-its-kind event for the WECSSAA organization.

The Cavaliers, equipped with only seven players who spent 2017-18 with the team, were the only squad throughout the introductory event to post a shutout win.

“That’s the way we wanted to get things started,” explained the KDHS team’s head coach Martin Morphet.

“We were solid defensively and our goaltending (Jackson Ford) was outstanding.”

The Cavaliers and Aigles played an evenly-matched first period, where a breakaway chance for Kingsville’s Ethan Litster was the best scoring chance. Nic Chenard kicked out his right pad to keep the game scoreless at the first buzzer.

Kingsville began taking control of the game at both ends of the rink starting early in the second frame. L’Essor had four power play chances compared to two for the Cavaliers, but struggled to match Kingsville’s pace.

“When you’ve got three solid lines to keep rolling out, it starts to wear out the other team over time,” Morphet said.

“We had scoring from all three lines, which is exactly what

Ryan Mucha slid through an opening in the slot and beat Chenard with a low wrist shot to start the scoring, assisted by Alex Riddiford and “We had scoring Shannon Olson. Defrom all three lines, clan Handley made which is exactly it 2-0 by snapping a what a coach wants Riddiford pass into the to see.” mesh from inside the - Martin faceoff circle to the Morphet net’s left side. Austin Severino also assisted.

Litster avenged the breakaway save early in the third, sending a high wrist shot into the short side after being set up by Colton Pavao and Handley. Scoring ended on a power play tally by Kaden Brennan, who snapped a Koen Taves pass from close range. Mitchell Renaud earned the second assist.

Morphet explained that last year’s KDHS team was comprised mostly of seniors. The 2017-’18 team went 6-51 in the regular season and was defeated 5-1 in the quarterfinal by Essex. This year’s seven veterans are joined by 10 rookies.

“We had a few defensive lapses, but when you’ve got a goalie who can cover for you when mistakes are made, that’s a big positive,” Morphet stated.

The Cavaliers will host Tecumseh Vista Academy Monday, Dec. 3 with a 3 p.m. start.

Sharks hold off Essex 73’s

By Bryan Jessop

Delaney MacDonald of the Sharks and Adam Gaiarin of the 73’s slide into the boards while battling for a loose puck during the second period of a PJHL game at Wheatley Area Arena Wednesday, Nov. 21. The Sharks held on for a 3-2 regulation win to improve their record to 10-10-0-1.

The Wheatley Omstead Sharks may have been outgunned in their most recent home game, but they weren’t outworked.

Despite missing half a dozen key players from their roster, the Sharks upset the Essex 73’s for a 3-2 regulation victory at Wheatley Area Arena Wednesday, Nov. 21. The win brought the Sharks to an even record of 10-10-0-1 to put them three points ahead of seventh-place Blenheim.

Wheatley’s forwards tested 73’s goalkeeper Connor Meyerink early and often in the first frame, peppering the former Leamington Flyer with 23 shots by the time the first buzzer sounded. Eric Prudence opened the scoring for the Sharks by banking a shot off the back of Meyerink’s left leg and back over the line. Mason Gow drew the lone assist.

The 73’s evened the score eight seconds into their first power play when Adam Gaiarin blasted a slap shot from the point that soared through traffic and past Catalin Morin. The deadlock stood for just under five minutes until Meyerink lunged at a high, bouncing puck with his trapper during a Wheatley man

advantage. The puck instead bounced off Curtis Rodrigues and over the line for a 2-1 lead. Jordan Paquette and Braedon Caetano were credited with helpers.

Bryce Ryan allowed Essex to draw even a second time early in the middle stanza, burying a pass from

“With six regulars out and an AP call-up, that’s a big momentum win for us.”

— Josh Carnevale

close range beyond the reach of a sprawling Morin.

Wheatley, however, struck again on the man advantage when a blast from the point

by Paquette deflected en route to the Essex net. The game-winning goal was set up by Ernie Godden and Cole Butler.

The Essex offense became more of a factor in the final 40 minutes, but struggled to solve Morin.

“He’s played really well for us in the last five games,” Sharks head coach Josh Carnevale said of his team’s vet-

eran goalie. “We just haven’t been supporting him with enough offense.”

Both teams were scoreless in the third, where the Sharks took on a successful campaign of killing the clock. The 73’s outshot their hosts 49-40, but allowed two Sharks power play goals on three opportunities. Essex was one for three with the man advantage.

“With six regulars out and an AP call-up, that’s a big momentum win for us,” Carnevale said. “We really needed guys to buy in and battle and that’s what we did tonight.”

The Sharks played the game without Alixe Saliba and Parker Boyle, both sidelined with injuries.

Carter Comeau, Mitch Lantin, Braydon Davis and Michael Connolly were serving suspensions.

On Saturday, Nov. 24, the Sharks took on the Flyers in Petrolia. Wheatley won in a 5-4 overtime decision despite having trailed three times. Shark goals were scored by Lucas Bersuk, Caetano, Gow, Mitch Krieger and in overtime, Butler.

Wheatley’s next home game will be played Wednesday, Nov. 28 at 7:30 p.m. against the Dresden Kings.

JESSOP’S JOURNAL

Wednesday, November 28, 2018

There’s no “I” in team

Some people just can’t get enough of this autumn weather.

I am not one of those people. In my mind, fall is just winter’s slightly less bratty little brother.

Bryan Jessop Some love the autumn scenery of brightly coloured leaves. I guess I’m a ‘glass half empty’ sort when it comes to the seasons, because I see nothing but a warning for the hours of raking leaves that lie a few short weeks ahead.

Last year, however, a Red Maple in my front yard offered kind of an inspiring sight. Most of its leaves quickly found their way to the ground as they always do, but for whatever reason, one of them — about a metre up from the bottom branches — hung on all winter long.

No amount of wind, snow or ice could send it spiralling downward. It was withered and crumpled up just like all its brethren that had long since been shaken free, but it never fell.

I find that pro sports teams are kind of like autumn leaves, especially in the NHL and NFL, since they start catching our attention at roughly the same time of year. My Habs

have been a mostly typical leaf this year. Oh, they put on quite a display early on, wowing the skeptics and experts the same way the leaves of the mighty oak tree dazzle us with a breathtaking display of colour.

They were clicking at both ends of the ice and weren’t leaning on Price to do all the heavy lifting inside their own blueline. Sadly, by the time I started writing this column, they were clinging to the last wildcard position by a slim, one-point thread and dropped to three games above .500 (or two games below it, depending on how you look at their league-leading five overtime losses).

By the time the holidays roll around, fellow Canadiens fans and I will no doubt resort to wondering what kind of draft pick we’ll get for next season.

The Leafs are in better shape, but have also lost some of their lustre since charging out of the gates in early October. If I had to make a prediction, I’d guess that they’ll still end up making the playoffs, but I wouldn’t count on home ice advantage come early-mid April.

If the “Last 10” column in the standings reads better than .500 by the time the last of your neighbourhood’s dead Christmas tree is tossed to the curb, they should still see post-season light at the end of the tunnel.

So why do some teams rise from the early disappointment ashes (Detroit’s starting to get its act together) while others fall flat on their faces after a tremendous start? Well, team chemistry doesn’t always happen overnight. Some * FOR players are poison when placed on the same line but APR keep the wins coming when matched up with someone else.

I’ll admit that when the Leamington Flyers made that recent four-player trade with the Chatham Maroons that the more easterly team seemed to be getting the better deal. Since that trade, however, the Flyers have been 3-0-0-0 while the Maroons have been 1-2-0-0.

Before the deal, Leamington had yet to win a road game. Since, they’ve yet to lose one.

Both new Flyers are TIRES | RIMS | SENSORS † contributing, proving that AT NO EXTRA CHARGE there’s actually more to supporting your team than a massive collection of goals and assists. Effort goes a ON SELECT NEW 2018 SUV MODELS long way. Sure, there’s an “I” in chemistry, but there’s also a “try.”

LEAMINGTON/ WHEATLEY – On Saturday, November 17, during a quick-paced game against the Essex Ravens Orange, the Southpoint Capitals Peewee LL put forth a resilient effort but couldn’t manage to earn the win.

The Ravens struck first, early in the opening period, but Zander Grilo was quick to strike back and put the Capitals on the board when he took a nice hard shot from the blue line and got the back of the Ravens’ net.

Luca Rino and Austin Allard earned assists.

The Ravens found the back of the Capitals net again, but Brandon Butler was quick to score for the Capitals. The Capitals then buckled up defensively for the remainder of the first as the back-end crew of Owen Pimentel, Riley Rougoor, Zander Grilo and Daniel Saad and great goaltending from Nicholas Beaudoin prevented the Ravens from netting any more goals.

The Capitals took an early lead in the second as Jayden Friesen made a nice pass off the boards to Daniel Saad, who made a crisp pass to Zander Grilo, who fired the puck once again in the Ravens’ net. There were great offence plays by Capitals Carson Stadler, Hayden Epplett, Loggan Charles and Nicholas Massad.

Penalties proved to be the downfall for the Capitals in the third period as they gave up two power play goals.

Late in the third, the Caps’ Luca Rino came streaking up the left wing, wiring a

Southpoint Mites vs. Kings

10 Sherk Street, Leamington 226-773-3454

LEAMINGTON/WHEATLEY – In their second week of play, the Southpoint Mites Canadiens took on the Kings in a well-contested match. For the Canadiens, Evan Williams, Mason Reid and Nickolas Sawyer provided the offensive touch. Serenity and Ryan Hutchingame-Lumley and Clayton Biekx were involved in the play both in front of their own net and the Kings goal.

Kylie Klassen was able to carry the puck down the ice a few times on her own. The Kings Bryce Bailey, Colten Friesen and Jace Lalonde were hustling endto-end. Jorgina D’Amico, Ealum Kimball and Malcolm Fleming Jr. worked hard to get to the puck. It was a good even game and players should be congratulated on having fun and playing hard.

Stars weekend results

The Southpoint Atom Stars travelled to Forest Glade on Saturday, Nov. 17 to battle the Windsor Wildcats. Taylor Lefaive and Ava Carreiro powered the Stars’ offence scoring a goal and an assist each. Alexa Thiele chipped in with an assist. The Atom Stars won 2-0. Grace “The Wall” Ondracka dominated the crease as she stopped every single puck sent her way to record a big shutout for the Stars.

The Southpoint Leamington Kinsmen Intermediate Stars visited the Capri Pizza Recreation Complex to tangle with the LaSalle Sabre Cats on Saturday night. The Stars pressured the puck all over the rink, frustrating the Sabre Cats.

Lighting the lamp in this fast paced contest were Jaryn Harris, Megan Mercer and Stephanie Wiebe. Assists went to Stephanie Wiebe, Kayla Collison and Adrian Gualtieri.

Sam “Prime Time” Hartleib held a high-powered LaSalle offence to just one goal as she made many spectacular saves to secure the big win.

The goal was called off as officials declared that the net was dislodged from its moorings before the puck crossed the goal line. Despite outshooting the guests 46-16, Kingsville lost 3-2 to fall to a record of 15-7-0-0 to remain tied for second in the South Division with Tillsonburg.

Novice Major A’s win Capitals Cup LEAMINGTON/WHEATLEY – This past weekend the Southpoint Point Pelee Karting Novice Major A participated in the Southpoint Capitals Cup Challenge in Leamington. The young Caps came into the tourney with one goal in mind, and that was to lift their hometown trophy in victory.

On Friday morning, Nov 16, the Capitals faced the South Kent Lightning, popping the opening tally and finishing with a nice 8-1 victory. Zack Bradley notched two goals with Brody Brown, Brayden Foster, Tyler Thomas and Jonathan Recker each scoring a goal and two assists. Kayde Grossi and AJ Youssef each popped a goal while Owen Derksen, Sloan Smith and Ben Liebrock chipped in an assist.

The next opponent for Southpoint was the Burlington Eagles. Southpoint scored early and often on their way to a 7-1 win. Brody Brown scored a hat trick. Jonathan Recker, Owen Derksen and Kayden Cook contributed a goal and an assist. Zack Bradley notched two assists, while linemate Sloan Smith lit the lamp with a goal. Brayden Foster, Kayde Grossi, AJ Youssef and Isaiah Georges each added an assist.

Saturday’s first game for the Caps was versus the Dundas Blues. Southpoint again followed the script en route to a 7-3 win. Zack Bradley led the way scoring 4 goals. Jonathan Recker notched a goal and two assists with Tyler Thomas pitching in a goal and an assist. Sloan Smith had a goal and Kayde Grossi had two helpers. Owen Derksen and AJ Youssef each finished with an assist.

In the semi-final game, Southpoint faced South Kent. Although the Lightning goalie made numerous high quality saves, the Capitals easily cruised to a 10-0 rout. Scoring were Sloan Smith and Kayde Grossi with hat tricks. Derksen, Bradley, Thomas and Ben Liebrock rounded out the scoring, while Karly Franklin and Christian Papp shared the goaltending duties, earning the shutout.

The Southpoint Novice Major A team defeated Burlington to win the Capitals Cup Challenge on the weekend.

Southpoint came out flying in a rematch with the Burlington Eagles on Sunday morning. Brody Brown cut in around the defense and slipped the puck in short side to open the scoring. Burlington tied the game midway through the opening frame then went ahead 2-1 with just over a minute to play in the first. Finally, with :50 seconds to go in the middle frame, Kayden Cook roofed a shot to even the score heading into the third. Jonathan Recker found the puck and deked around their defenseman and fired one home to take the lead. Tyler Thomas rifled in a hard shot blocker side.

Recker and AJ Youssef collected assists on the play. Thomas then shot a bullet in high blocker to increase the Caps lead.

With eight to go, Brody Brown ripped in Southpoint’s sixth of the game.

The Eagles snuck a goal in with 5:43 remaining, but Ben Liebrock worked the puck to Brown who lifted the puck over the goalie for his third of the game.

As Karly Franklin, in net for the Capitals, pounded her goalie stick on the ice as the seconds ticked down, it was mission accomplished for a determined group as they piled on each other celebrating their well-deserved 7-3 victory and lifting the Southpoint Capitals Challenge Cup high over their heads.

Capitals Cup gains momentum

By Bryan Jessop

Both on the ice and behind the scenes, the Southpoint Capitals experienced its share of success for the annual Capitals Cup Challenge.

This year’s tournament was the second to be organized primarily by Chris Church, who recruited 22 teams in five divisions — more than double the 10 that attended the three-day event in 2017. The novice group welcomed the South Kent Lightning, Dundas Blues and Burlington Eagles to take on the hosting Capitals squad. Southpoint’s entry dominated pool play with an 8-1 win over South Kent, a 7-1 victory over Burlington and then a 7-3 win over Dundas for a first-place ranking to start the playoff rounds.

In the semis, the tourney’s youngest Capitals team shut out South Kent 10-0 to take on Burlington in the final. Southpoint won the cup and championship medals with a 7-3 nod against the Eagles, who advanced by defeating Dundas in the other semifinal.

With no SMHA entry in the Atom AE group, a combination of South“The big thing point and Essex players is just to bring formed an Essex team to other people into take on neighbouring Erie North Shore Storm, the our town.”

Dorchester Dragons and — Chris Woodstock Navy Vets.

Church In the semis, the Essex/ Southpoint group edged the Erie North Shore Storm 4-3 in the semis.

In the championship match, Essex/Southpoint defeated Dorchester 2-1 in overtime.

In the Peewee division, Southpoint struggled against formidable opposition, starting with a 4-3 loss to Essex. Later that day (Friday), they suffered a 10-3 loss at the hands of the Wallaceburg Lakers. The Woolwich Wildcats defeated the Caps in the final round robin game 4-1. Essex and Woolwich met in the final after the Ravens upset Wallaceburg 3-2 in the semis. The championship went to the Ravens with a final overtime score of 3-2.

“We always try to bring aboard a team from that area,” Church explained. “It’s great to have them here, especially with this being their Thanksgiving weekend. They always love the hotel (Best Western Plus).”

With six teams, the Peewee AEs took on a different points format where a win was worth six points and a tie earning three. Each period won earned two points while a tied period was good for one. This group proved another tough one for the hosts, who lost 9-1 to Dorchester, 7-0 to Dayton and 8-1 to Whitby. Dayton and Whitby went head to head in the championship game, won 2-1 by Whitby.

The Bantam Capitals also enjoyed a successful tournament, starting with a 2-2 draw against their Essex rivals.

Next up, they blanked the Thorold Blackhawks 1-0 and finished pool play with a 6-1 triumph over the Barrie Colts.

The Capitals moved on to the final after a shootout win against Barrie to meet the Ravens in the final. Southpoint, coached by Church, lost the game in a shootout after a 0-0 score through regulation and overtime.

Church explained that by being able to start the preparation process earlier for this year’s tournament, he was able to extend invitations to all minor hockey associations across the province. This year, visiting teams in the CCC booked over 100 local hotel nights.

“This tournament is something where financially, we just try to break even,” said Church. “The big thing is just to bring other people into our town.”
