Residents of sevenstorey apartment building upset by grounded elevator

TARA JEFFREY THE JOURNAL

esidents of a Sarnia apartment complex that houses many seniors say they feel trapped by the building’s only elevator being offline for up to two months. Skyline Living notified tenants at the Governor House East last fall that the elevator in the seven-storey building needed replacement. The work has now begun. A notice from the Guelph-based company said the lift will be out of service six to eight weeks. “We’ve tried to stop them from doing this until we get accommodations made for those with disabilities in the building, and they have yet to do that,” said Tara Adair, one of the residents at 369 London Rd. “They refuse to give accommodations for the disabled, saying they have to make their own accommodations.” Skyline has informed residents an onsite ‘porter’ will be available to help carry groceries, garbage and parcels (up to 15 pounds) up the stairs between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. daily. That’s not good enough, said one 75-year-old tenant. “I still work full-time and I am not home until after 4 p.m. I was very sick a couple years ago and my legs have never really come back. So I am really nervous about having to climb up six flights of stairs,” the tenant said. Continued on 3

More host homes needed for arriving Ukrainians

CATHY DOBSON THE JOURNAL

eb and Peter Osmond know very little about the Ukrainian family arriving this week to live at their Corunna home. They are expecting Igor Marhalevich, his pregnant wife Olya and their 10-year-old son, also named Igor, says Deb Osmond. They left Ukraine shortly after the Russians invaded in February and have been waiting in Austria for a more permanent situation in Canada. “They couldn’t return to

Ukraine,” said Osmond who is a social worker at Lambton Elderly Outreach. “That is about all I know, but Olga comes across as very laid back and very happy they’re coming. “We don’t know much about one another but we’re trusting it will work out.” The Osmonds are the latest local family to welcome Ukrainians into their home, and have committed to help them for the next year. “We’re very excited,” she said. “The baby is due at the end of June and when I put it out there that some baby things were needed, we received a

room full of baby stuff for them. “It makes me cry thinking about the baby. It really is a blessing.” Sarnians are stepping up to help in many ways but more host families are needed, says Dr. Cassandra Taylor, who is voluntarily co-ordinating many of the matches. Local churches, MP Marilyn Gladu’s office, and a legion of volunteers with Taylor are making it possible to bring as many as 100 or more Ukrainians to Sarnia over the next several weeks. Their needs are varied, but communicating and language

barriers are a priority, says Kevin Smith, whose family was one of the first to welcome a Ukrainian family on April 27. “Hosting is so rewarding. It’s wonderful to have this family in our house,” Smith told a town hall meeting facilitated by Gladu’s office last week. Smith’s three children are making friends with the two Ukrainian children, and the adults are relying heavily on phone translation apps to communicate, he said. “We were scared at first but the first week has been amazing,” he said.

Continued from 1 "I don’t know how I am going to manage. I just feel like they didn’t do enough to help us out, you know?” Skyline says it will do its best to accommodate any after-hours requests for porter service. But it won’t be providing alternative accommodation. “We can appreciate the challenge that it’s going to cause for some,” said Jeff Stirling, the company’s VP of corporate communications. The elevator was a concern even before Skyline acquired the building and is in need of immediate attention, he said. “Our first hope was to try to just repair, but the more we dug into it the more problems we found… it really is something we have to replace, because the health and safe of our tenants is our primary concern. “If there’s anything specific that they are looking for, we make sure they’ve got the resident manager’s phone number, who then can help in a lot of different ways,” he added. Adair said residents of the building feel as though they’re being held hostage. She reached out to City Hall and the offices of MPP Bob Bailey and MP Marilyn Gladu and received little help, she said. Landlords are required to accommodate people with disabilities “up to the point of undo hardship,” said Andrew Bolter, executive director of Community Legal Assistance Sarnia. “If all they’ve offered is one staff person to help carry groceries — how does that help someone go up and down the stairs,

get to medical appointments, things like that?” he asked. Efforts to accommodate can include re-housing tenants elsewhere and rent abatement, Bolter said. “Especially if it’s six to eight weeks — that’s a long period of time. Normally one would expect that they would be talking to the tenants, meeting with them on an individual basis to discuss those needs and tailoring the accommodations accordingly.” Stirling confirmed the company does not have a policy to provide rent abatement or hotel accommodations. “But the idea, essentially, by communicating six months out,

we understand it’s going to be a challenge for some people and hope that during that timeframe they are able to make some arrangements if they need to.” One resident said she plans to leave town for a few days each week. “I have a knee issue, so I would have to take time to climb the stairs,” she said. “There doesn’t seem to be anything in place to assist those who don’t have the ability to use the stairs — especially the ones totally dependent on wheelchairs and walkers. “I’m not trying to cause trouble for anybody,” she added. “But I just don’t know that they’ve thought this through.”

Continued from 1 “What our community needs right now is to pool our efforts. This is an emergency situation and the government has been quite slow.” The federal government is providing three-year work permits to Ukrainians arriving in Canada. The Ontario government has waived a three-month waiting period for free health care, is offering immediate and free access to elementary and secondary school, and will recognize professional credentials. That’s something no other province has agreed to do, MPP Bob Bailey said at the town hall. But the free flights promised by the federal government to bring Ukrainians have not materialized, said Gladu. Some refugees are able to pay their own way and those who can’t are relying on donations. More than $25,000 has been raised so far, said Taylor. And more fundraisers are planned. A single plane ticket to Canada can cost $1,300 or more. The good news is that once they arrive the community has rallied to provide as much as possible. Donations of household goods and clothing are pouring in, food is being prepared, volunteer drivers are helping until Ontario licences tests can be arranged, and English classes are available. Local residents are thinking outside the box to make the adjustment easier for the newcomers. For instance, Lisa Matlovich is working with Sarnia Police officers repairing unclaimed bicycles for donation. During the town hall, several women offered babysitting ser-

vices while parents job search. A Facebook page set up by Taylor called “Save Ukraine – Sarnia and Lambton County,” has a job board with dozens of postings from local employers. “But housing remains one of our biggest challenges, particularly for larger families,” said Taylor. “The Ukrainians are not classified as refugees so they don’t qualify for housing supports,” she said. Instead, they’re coming with visitor emergency visas that allow them to stay up to three years before applying for permanent status. Families living in emergency shelter in Poland are waiting up to six weeks for federal clearance to come to Canada, but that process is speeding up, Gladu said. The Sarnia-Lambton Local Immigration Partnership has prepared a comprehensive booklet for Ukrainians and local residents who want to help bring them here. It can be found at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jZArH6WLfbN-8Mh67Vdx_soUXTQH-jHKN9iuaAs3li8/edit CONTACTS TO DONATE OR HOST • Bethel Pentecostal Church, 519-542-7731 • St. George’s Ukrainian Catholic Church, 519-542-9903 • E-transfer to Dr. Taylor at saveukrainesarnia@gmail.com (no receipt) • MP Marilyn Gladu’s office at 519-330-1788 is tracking offers to volunteer or host and staff helping with paperwork.

This year’s jurors are Sarah Ford, Madeline Epps and Hannah Cattran. “The work produced by our high school students blows me away. I’m just so impressed,” said Moore. A big part of Gallery in the Grove’s mandate is supporting art education. That was on hold during the pandemic, but this winter the VALS (Visiting Artists in Lambton School) program resumed. The gallery hired two art teachers, David Moore and Susan Perry, to teach about 30 classes of Grade 6 students. It’s about igniting an appreciation for creativity at an early age, said Moore. A small section of the Fast Forward exhibition is reserved for VALS student art.

New helipad could begin airlifting patients this fall

TARA JEFFREY THE JOURNAL

onstruction of a new $912,000 helipad was expected to begin at Bluewater Health this week. The former St. Patrick’s High School athletic track area on East Street is fenced off while crews lift and remove the oval track. The property — which Bluewater Health purchased from the St. Clair Catholic District School Board in 2016 — has been a designated construction zone and closed to the

public since last November. A municipal pathway that runs along the side of the property will be temporarily unavailable while the old track is removed, the hospital said. That work is expected to take about two weeks, with construction of the helipad taking place in late summer. Pending certification by Transport Canada, helicopters could begin transporting patients by late fall, the hospital said. A construction tender was awarded to Jayden Construction in March. Lambton County is

providing $400,000 and the Bluewater Health Foundation fundraising he additional $512,000. The hospital, which serves 126,000 residents, is the only one in the region without an on-site air ambulance and currently relying on ambulance personnel and Sarnia Chris Hadfield Airport to move patients. In the 2019-20 fiscal year, almost 400 local people were sent to other health facilities from the Sarnia emergency department, intensive care unit or maternal-infant unit.

contact their health-care provider, the health unit said. Lyme disease causes rash, fever, headache, and fatigue. If not treated quickly the infection can spread to the joints, heart, and nervous system. Though the probability is greater in high-risk zones, it is possible to find infected ticks almost anywhere there is tall grass and wooded and brushy areas. The health unit recommends using an insect repellent with DEET or icaridin and sticking to marked trails.

Blackout: You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s dawn

recent story idea from a reader about the old Sarnia Street Railway (Sarnia’s streetcars had their own police. Who knew? (April 7) reminded me of another day in Sarnia’s past that affected the whole town, including its streetcars. It was a fire that left the town in the dark for a month. The Sarnia Gas and Electric Light Company building had been in full operation since 1905. But on June 27, 1912, it was lost in a massive fire that consumed the entire building in less than 30 minutes. The alarm came in from Box 17 at the corner of Front and Maxwell streets at 10:30 a.m. The fire began in the northwest corner of the basement housing the engines and electrical machinery. It was a seething cauldron

even before the firemen could arrive. No one knew what was happening until flame burst through the floor from the basement, consuming the wooden floors as fuel. The citizens of Sarnia felt hard hit by the destruction of the Electric Light Company. People were given a stark demonstration of the improvements that electrification had brought to their lives. The old adage that you never really appreciate something until it’s gone was on every citizen’s lips. The Sarnia Street Railway had to bring horses back to keep its cars running. Gone were the benefits of lighted streets, and hotels, businesses and

private residences were all plunged into darkness. It was back to the days of coal oil and candles. The Sarnia Observer was particularly inconvenienced. Machine typesetting had to be done in Port Huron. To run the presses, The Observer turned to the Canadian Printing Company. Fortunately, they used gas to power their presses. All across town, residents by the hundreds were thrown out of work as businesses closed for lack of power. Officials with the Sarnia Gas and Electric Light Company, pressed for estimates on the restoration of electrical power, emitted gloomy forecasts, speculating it might take weeks. Sarnia braced itself for a lengthy wait. When electricity was finally restored one month later, its return was announced in blinding

fashion. At the time of the light plant’s destruction, many of the electrical switches across town had been in the “On” position. Shortly after 9 p.m. on July 25, Sarnia buildings were flooded with light

as power was restored. St. Andrew’s Rink, located across Christina Street from St. Andrew’s Church, was a blaze of light all night, as was Central Baptist Church, St. Paul’s Presbyterian

Church and numerous businesses across the town. Got an interesting tale? Contact columnist Phil Egan at philegan@cogeco. ca

BOB BOULTON

never actually knew which house was Lorne’s. We both lived on Wellington Street, but in two different worlds. Nor do I recall ever seeing him inside a store, at school, or any building for that matter. Only riding his bike - a sturdy old rattling thing with wide handlebars - or standing at our front door, collecting money with a focused frowned, clipping holes in our payment card. Lorne delivered the daily Sarnia paper (except Sunday). With two overstuffed canvas bags criss-crossed over his shoulders, he’d sling papers from the sidewalk like a hook shot, always landing them neatly on

the front porch. Each newspaper was rolled tight with the ends Bob Boulton tucked in. So we could open the storm door and bring it inside before it got really wet, even in a downpour. Lorne was a genuine go-getter, admired by adults in the neighbourhood for his go-getterness. But in a world of bright red headlines he was also the dull dust of everyday hard work. He was a part of our lives for so long we simply got used to him. His clothes weren’t quite scruffy, but well used. Most of the time we saw only the top of his

head, looking down at the nickel-plated coin changer hooked to his belt. After counting the payment, he dispensed the exact change from its four barrels: pennies, nickels, dimes and quarter. I don’t recall anyone ever tipping paper carriers, except maybe at Christmas. Lorne had more than 130 subscribers. I, on the other hand, delivered a grand total of 18 copies every day (except Sunday) of what was then referred to as the Toronto Daily Star. The route featured 12 new subscriptions (that I won an award for selling) and six inherited addresses. I would go to the tiny office located near Perry’s Fish & Chips on East Street and pay for my

newspapers. Then I’d roll them up as best I could - they were pretty thick and deliver them. One dark winter evening Lorne was at our front door. He was crying. He’d won a contest for a week’s vacation to somewhere exotic, warm and sunny but couldn’t find anyone to take his route. My parents volunteered me. No objections entertained. So for that week I delivered both papers, grumbled, learned a little about being a good neighbour, and made some extra money. And for Lorne, the universe unfolded as it should. Bob Boulton is a Sarnia writer of stories, articles and light verse.

Future of the Five Corners gas station remains uncertain CATHY DOBSON THE JOURNAL

he development of a key property at the intersection of Mitton and Wellington streets has stalled, leaving City Hall to contend with property complaints. Orders to cut the grass and clear the lot of garbage have been issued 15 to 20 times over the past two years, said Adam MacDonald, Sarnia’s chief building official. “We’ve been there frequently because of general lot maintenance and people possibly using it for dumping,” he said. The city most recently responded on April 21 and issued a cleanup order to the property’s owner, Clarington Petroleum Ltd. of Pickering, Ont. If nothing is done, crews will move in this week to clean it up and bill the owner, said MacDonald. The lot is in the heart of Mitton Village known as Five Corners and once boasted a busy convenience store and gas station. But it closed in 2017, creating a concern for local businesses and residents working to revitalize the area. The property came under new ownership in 2019 and an application was made to build a new

gas pump and canopy. That job was completed, the lot paved, and renovations to the convenience store appeared to be almost done when work halted abruptly last summer. “For a time, it was exciting to know we’d have a new store there,” says Chrissy McRoberts, owner of the Dog Eat Dog shop across the street. “Having something empty on that corner is brutal. There’s just so much potential.” The neighbourhood takes pride in keeping Mitton Village clean and customer-friendly, McRoberts added. “We’ll go clear or trim the shrubs and pick up the garbage, even mow the lawn, if they won’t. Our community has been carrying the load.” A property management company called Apex on Bloor Street in Toronto has secured the lot on behalf of the mortgagee, according to a sign in the window. Calls made to Apex were not returned by press time. Josh Walters, an owner at Maud’s Variety on Mitton Street, said he

called Apex to ask what was happening to the property and was told it was up for sale as a gas station. “It would be nice to have a local owner,” said Walters. “Ultimately it comes down to having a company there that

The sad and unsolved homicide of Sarah Shingles RANDY EVANS

EDITOR’S NOTE: The following is a never-before-told story and an historical “who done it.” Was there a cover-up involving a doctor, the local coroner’s office and the press? You be the judge.

arah Shingles was single and she was pregnant. And in the stifling morality of Victorian Sarnia in the spring of 1879, that could tarnish a woman’s reputation for life and stigmatize the child. So the 20-year-old resident of Moore Township sought out an abortion,

which was not an easy process. Abortion was then a criminal offence, unless necessary to save the life of the expectant mother. Punishments were severe, and if the abortion attempt led to the mother’s death those involved faced homicide charges and the noose. Nevertheless, procedures were secretly available - for a price - both from untrained individuals and certain doctors. As one physician

advised his colleagues in 1875: “When you are solicited to interfere for the relief of these poor wretches, pity them, pity them [but] meet their entreaties with prompt, decided refusal.” - Dean Jobb, “The Case of the Murderous Dr. Cream.” Basically, two types were available. One involved physical extraction and the other an administration of poison to expel the fetus. Poisons of choice included tansy, savin, cotton root and

ergot. These extracts were not readily available, except to doctors. Druggists and drug manufacturers protected their reputation by ensuring such poisons didn’t fall into the wrong hands. So when an abortion involving drugs was botched, a doctor was often implicated. On April 28, 1879 Sarah Shingles succeeded in finding someone willing to help her. Whoever that person was also caused her death. Sarnia Coroner Dr. Edward Oliver began an

investigation, as he had done six years earlier in the infamous Elizabeth Workman murder case. All indications pointed to death by poisoning. An autopsy was performed. But for the case to go forward, it was crucial that an analysis for poison be carried out on Shingles’ stomach contents. And for some unknown reason, neither the local coroner nor Sarnia Crown Attorney Julius Bucke acted until directed to do so by Ontario’s Deputy Attorney General, A.G. Scott. Continued on 13

Continued from 12 Scott ordering that the stomach and its contents be sent for analysis to Dr. W. H. Ellis at the School of Practical Science in Toronto, but not until one and a half months after the woman’s death. And the case was about to take a questionable twist – one that would reverberate in the highest levels of the provincial government and Sarnia’s upper crust. During the autopsy, Shingle’s stomach was removed and placed in a glass jar. The jar was capped and placed in a wooden “Brown’s Windsor Soap” box. Thus packaged, the evidence was sent to Dr. Ellis for analysis. Meanwhile, local Crown Attorney Bucke’s investigation had identified two possible suspects. The first was Shingles’ boyfriend. Though he was the obvious place to start there was a problem. The boyfriend

lacked ready access to abortion-inducing poisons. Next, and no doubt to the consternation of the local medical community, the second suspect was one Doctor McMichael. In his report, Bucke didn’t specify why McMichael was a person of interest, but evidence must have existed to implicate him by name. But the case against McMichael had two troubling factors. One, Bucke noted, is that he was a person of good reputation. The second was motive, because Shingles would have had difficulty JOHNSTON’S DRUG STORE, left, in 1884-85. Sutherland Johnston opened the shop on Front Street in 1876 with his brother Dr. T. G. Johnston. The business moved across the street 21 years later, where it operated until 1902.

paying a fee large enough to cover a doctor’s enormous legal risks. In the end, it didn’t matter, because the local authorities made a critical mistake. As reported by Dr. Ellis, the jar containing the deceased’s stomach was not labeled as coming from Shingles. Except for the reference of an unattached note, the contents could have come from anyone. What’s more, the jar was improperly sealed and some of the contents leaked out in transit. Thus, the exhibit was contaminated and subject to possible tampering. It’s confusing. Dr. Oliver was an experienced coroner, and he and his staff would have been well trained on how to properly secure court exhibits. Yet they messed up. When Deputy Attorney General Scott learned what had happened he expressed his

concern to Bucke, who, as the local Crown prosecutor, was responsible for the administration of justice in Sarnia. Any proof of Sarah Shingle’s death by poisoning was gone, and so too was a case against either the boyfriend or Dr. McMichael. It’s interesting that despite a Sarnia scandal of such high intrigue the local press did not cover it. Nor can the official death certificate for Sarah Shingles be found. Thus, to this day, the poisoning death of a young Sarnia woman remains an unsolved mystery. Someone got away with homicide. May Sarah Shingles rest in peace.

Obituary

HERBERT, Fredrick (Fred) Charles age 68 passed away

suddenly but peacefully at home on April 28th, 2022. Predeceased by his parents, Marjorie and Norm, sister Jennifer, nieces and a nephew. A devoted father to his sons Brent (Becky) and Kyle. Also blessed with two grandchildren, Laken and Hallie. He is remembered for his laughter and pranks by sisters, Shirley, Sharon (Nick) Yablonsky and Cathy (Rick) Webb. Golfing and camping were his favorite activities, especially when accompanied by his boys. He also played and coached a number of sports. His sisters will tell you grudgingly, that he excelled at them all. At his request there will be no visitation or formal funeral. A celebration of life will be hosted at Camlachie Golf Course Saturday May 14th at 4 in the afternoon. Details will be put on social media. Donations to the Sarnia & District Humane Society.

TAYLOR, Joyce Marlene (Dowling) - Joyce Marlene Taylor

(Dowling) passed away peacefully at Afton Park Place Nursing Home on May 2, 2022, at the age of 82. Beloved wife of Bob Taylor of Bright’s Grove for 63 years. Dear mother of Tracy (Mark) Dawson, Cindy Taylor, and Marcy (Joe) Vandenboom. Dear Nana of Mike (Sarah) Dawson, Matt Dawson, Justine (Neil) Taylor, Dan (Toni) Tice, Caralee (Chad) MacNeill, Spencer, Parker and Wil Vandenboom. She was a Great Nana to Kingston, Sloane, Emerald, Henley and Wylder. She is also survived by her dear sister Carol (the late Bob) Copeland, London, Ont, special cousin Trudy (Les) Austin and several nieces and nephews. Joyce was loved by all and dedicated her life to her family. She enjoyed many years with the Camlachie United Church choir. Many wonderful times were spent at family gatherings at home and the cottage until Joyce was stricken with Alzheimer’s and spent the last 11 years in nursing home care. The family wishes to thank the staff of Fiddick’s, Petrolia and Afton for their loving care and support for Joyce. Cremation has taken place and a private family gathering will be held. Sympathy may be expressed through donations to the Canadian Cancer Society and the Alzheimer Society of Sarnia Lambton (cheques only at the funeral home please).
