Adult summer book clubs at the Pelham Library BY AMY GUILMETTE
Deputy CEO Pelham Library
Summers are a wonderful and hectic time for parents and kids at the library with lots of programs and summer reading. However, I don’t want you to think we’ve forgotten our adult population. This summer we’re offering the Friday drop-in crafting program, bridge on Mondays and three book club sessions. If you’ve never been to a book club and aren’t sure if you’ll enjoy it, summer is the perfect time to try it out. These sessions are single signup sessions and perfect for a first timer or someone who isn’t sure they can commit for the nine sessions during the cooler months. Book clubs provide the opportunity to break from everyday life, offer the freedom to be honest with your opinions in a safe environment, and often lead to friendships and lifetime
connections. So come and join us for a glass of lemonade, snacks, and a great discussion. Patrons can pick up a copy of a book club title for any of our summer sessions at the Fonthill Branch for a $5 participation fee. If you already have a copy and would like to simply drop-in, the cost is $2. On Wednesday, July 20, we will meet at 7 PM for a discussion of Room. Emma Donoghue the author of Room will be visiting the Pelham Library in September so this is the perfect time to read her most popular title. Room was made into a movie in 2015 and Donoghue was nominated for an Academy award for Best Adapted Screenplay. For those of you who prefer an afternoon meeting, we will be discussing Room on Monday, August 29 at 2 PM. Our other book club selection this summer is the controversial book Go Set a

Watchman by Harper Lee, author of the famous To Kill a Mockingbird. Go Set a Watchman was originally written before To Kill a Mockingbird but was sidelined when Lee’s editors wanted her to go back and tell us more about the main character’s childhood. If you haven’t read To Kill a Mockingbird, copies of this title are also available. We will be discussing Lee’s book on Monday, July 25 at 2 PM. If you would prefer to start your own book club, don’t forget that we lend out our book club sets free of charge. With your library card you can check out a set that contains 5-10 copies of a single title and take it home in a blue library bag. To search for book club sets in the library catalogue, use the title “book club set” and you will pull up all of the titles we currently offer. Narrow the search even further by selecting “adult.” For those of you travelling this summer, or too busy with gardening, caregiving, or simply appreciating the beautiful weather, our fall book club signups start August 8. You can sign up for all nine sessions at once for $45, or drop-in monthly for $2. For more information call the library at 905-8926443.

to the residence and held against their will by three males, one of whom was allegedly armed with a handgun. Officers isolated the residence and contained the perimeter to ensure public safety. Roads around the area of the incident were closed to traffic while police evacuated nearby homes. The two victims exited the residence and were secured by police officers present on the perimeter of the home. Additional police resources were activated in response to the incident including the Emergency Task Unit, K-9 Unit, Negotiators, Detective Services, and Forensic Services Unit. While surrounded, one of the suspects exited the
residence and attempted to flee through neighbouring yards, before being taken into custody by police. The remaining two suspects exited the house shortly thereafter and were placed under arrest. Police executed a search warrant at the residence. A quantity of drugs including cocaine, methamphetamine, and marijuana were seized, along with cash as proceeds, counterfeit money, and a prohibited weapon. No firearms were located. Three males were arrested and charged with a multitude of offenses, including forcible confinement, possession of the proceeds of a crime, and possession of narcotics. Two of the men, both 19, were from Brampton, while the other male, 18, lives in Thorold.

Quick action contains Wainfleet bog fire BY ZACH JUNKIN
The VOICE
Firefighting efforts continued earlier this week at the Wainfleet Bog Conservation Area. Crews from the firefighting effort confirmed that progress is being made, and there has been no further growth of the fire.
“The main fire is contained,” said Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority spokesman Michael Reles on Monday. There are four basic classifications to a forest fire: Not Under Control, Being Held, Under Control, and Out. Due to concerted efforts on the ground, mon-
itors were able to classify the fire as “being held” by Monday, and were hopeful that the 6.4 hectare fire would be “under control” by mid-week. A fire is deemed to be extinguished when there are three full days of no visible smoke. Officials estimate the current fire will take 7 to 10 days to extin-

Còig: Cape Breton traditions BY JIM CASSON
Special to the VOICE
CÒIG (Ko-ig) is an exciting ensemble of East Coast musicians, and is one of Cape Breton’s most captivating young bands. Originally coming together for a promotional tour for the Celtic Colours International Festival, the formation proved to be something special, and the group decided to continue to tour together as a band. Proving to be a serious force to be reckoned with in the traditional music scene with their driving tunes, haunting songs and infectious energy, Còig is a treat for the ears of every audience they meet.With a
combined total of over 30 nominations and awards, each of Còig’s talented musicians have released their own successful solo albums, and have toured both at home and abroad before coming together as this exciting super group. Their much anticipated debut album “Five” was released in June, 2014 to rave reviews, and has earned the band the 2014 Canadian Folk Music Award for Traditional Album of the Year, the Music Nova Scotia Award for Traditional/Roots Recording of the Year, and most recently, the 2015 East Coast Music Award for Roots/Traditional Group Recording of the Year.
said. “With an underground fire you have to be extremely careful about where you’re walking because it burns out fire pits underneath. It can stay dry on top, and then when you walk across it you fall into a fire pit.” Chief Flagg has served with the department since 1995, and has seen a few bog fires in his day, including a big one in 2012. He noted that improved communication among government agencies drastically improved response times for the current incident, which helped contain the fire and limit its damage. “In 2012 there was no real
set pattern on who was going to be the lead agency,” he said. “This year, the fire was brought to our attention by Tuesday at 4 o’clock, and we had the Ministry of Natural Resources down here by 2 o’clock on Wednesday, so we got onto it within the first day and a half, whereas in 2012, the decision wasn’t made until after a week’s worth of burning.” At the moment, it is too early to know what effect the fire will have on the local ecosystem, but the NPCA expects most of the plants and animals will recover See BOG FIRE Page 11

Teams on the ground are continually patrolling extinguished areas to confirm that the fire in the peat is out.

continued from Page 3 Niagara Regional Police Service responded to a report of a suspicious person at the Thorold Community Pool. A 12-year-old male was at the swimming pool when he attended the men’s change room. While in the change room the young male was approached by an older man who requested help getting something out of his vehicle. The young male declined, at which time the older male yelled louder for the young male to go to his vehicle. The young male declined again at which time the older male grabbed him by the arm and attempted to drag him out of the change room. The young male was able to break free and notify his family and pool staff who contacted the police. After putting out a request for public assistance, police received a great deal of response from the community, and were able to identify the man. The man has been interviewed by detectives, and the investigation continues. Currently, no one has been charged with a crime.
Uncooperative motorbike leads to arrests
Last Wednesday, police responded to a suspicious person call in Grimsby. When they arrived, officers located a male and fe-
male who were experiencing difficulties with their motorcycle. Officers determined that the motorcycle was stolen from Hamilton and the man and woman were arrested. It was also determined that they were responsible for a series of thefts in the nearby neighbourhood.The 27-year-old male and the 23-year-old female, both from Hamilton, with charged with a litany of offenses, including property obtained by crime, possession of break and enter instruments, and theft of a motor vehicle.
Public helps catch bike thief
Charges have been laid after the public helped locate a bike thief in Beamsville last week. The bicycle was stolen from out front of a Sobey’s store. The bike belonged to a special needs employee who was working at the time. \After issuing a call for the public’s assistance and providing a description of the perpetrator, police received several tips and were able to locate the bicycle and make an arrest. As a result of their investigation, a 29-year-old man was arrested for the alleged theft.
Police increase presence near Moyer Road
In the month of June, members of the Niagara Re-
gional Police attended two serious motor vehicle collisions located on Moyer Road in the city of Welland. One of these collisions involved a 47-year-old male from Welland who was killed when his motorcycle collided head-on with an approaching vehicle. In response to concerns for the public’s safety, members of the Traffic Enforcement Unit attended this area to conduct targeted enforcement. Officers conducted both Lidar and Radar speed enforcement, as well as vehicle stops for other traffic violations and sobriety checks. In just the first few days of enforcement, officers issued 64 Provincial Offence Notices with the majority of them being issued for speeding violations. In one incident, a 66-year-old male was operating his vehicle 30 km/hr below the posted 80 km/hr speed zone. The officer followed the vehicle a short distance to investigate his driving behaviour and subsequently conducted a traffic stop. The driver was arrested and charged with impaired driving. In a second incident, a 42-year-old male was stopped for driving 140 km/hr in a posted 80 km/ hr zone. As he was driving more than 50 km/hr over the posted speed limit, he was stopped and charged
with stunting. It was also determined that his ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol and he was also arrested and charged with impaired driving. In addition to the two drivers charged with impaired driving, four other drivers were charged with driving while under suspension.
Explosive-making chemicals found in hotel room
A 43-year-old Niagara Falls man is under arrest after police discovered chemicals that could be used to make a bomb in his hotel room last week. On Monday July 4, members of the Niagara Regional Police Service discovered the chemicals inside a motel room located at 5334 Kitchener Street in the City of Niagara Falls. A nearby home and several motel rooms were evacuated while police investigated the incident A Niagara Falls man was taken into custody in the late evening hours, charged with “possession of substances which may be used to produce explosives” and was held pending a bail hearing. The investigation is ongoing.

Discretion yes, favouritism no

J
UDICIAL DISCRETION is an important element in any legal system. Without it, as has been the case in places with “Three Strikes” laws and other forms of mandatory sentencing, citizens can receive disproportionate punishments for their crimes, and be treated like cogs in a wheel rather than human beings. But discretion can easily cross into tyranny if legislators leave too much wiggle room. A Pelham resident discovered this recently when he was ordered to remove a pair of cows from his property, because his ten-acre farm was not technically large enough. Livestock, to the surprise of many, can only be kept on farms of 25 acres or larger. Many farms in Pelham are in open violation of this by-law. This resident was singled-out because someone complained to the town. By-law enforcement in Pelham is complaint-driven, where certain things aren’t enforced unless an official complaint is filed. It’s generally a sound policy that keeps by-law officers from pestering residents who ar-
en’t really bothering anyone. But in certain cases, such as the one in question, it gives neighbours and bylaw officers an unsettling

degree of power over residents. The scales of justice get a little crooked if what one is and is not allowed to do on one’s own property can be determined by an enforcement officer with something to prove, or a neighbour with a grudge. That’s the point that bylaws stop being helpful tools for building communities and become malicious weapons to exact revenge for slights real or imagined. And this is a concern for everyone.

move, or die, or sleep with your sibling. Untenable is the by-law that leaves residents and their investments—in this case literally millions of dollars—at the whim of others. Whether or not a resident should be able to own cattle on agricultural property needs to be clearly defined,, not left to the caprices of neighbours and staff. Councillors need to ask if the practice of owning cattle on less than 25 acres of agricultural land, a practice carried out successfully and peacefully by generations of town residents back to the nation’s founding, is still right for the Town of Pelham. They need to consider whether this is a legitimate complaint surrounding livestock, or a spurious attempt to use the by-law as a form of harassment. If it is the latter, then they must work toward change that ensures a just outcome in this case, and in others like it in the future. It is important for staff to remain empowered, but above all, each resident must be given a fair and equal shot at prevailing.

approved a regulatory change under the Insurance Act to allow commercial fleet insurance to be offered for vehicles that can be hired through an online application. With the regulatory change, insurance companies can now develop insurance policies for purchase by ride-share companies. The changes attempt to close the gap in auto insurance coverage for those drivers carrying paying passengers through ride-sharing services. “When it comes to car insurance for ride-sharing, our top concern is for the safety of consumers and drivers,” said Charles Sousa, Minister of Finance. “By modernizing Ontario’s auto insurance system, Ontario is allowing insurers to provide greater peace of mind to ridesharing passengers and their drivers. In their 2016 Budget, the province committed to support the emerging “sharing economy,” most commonly characterized by companies like Uber. The government asserts that it is committed to working with insurance stakeholders and the public to develop the legislative and regulatory changes necessary to fully integrate sharing economy business models into Ontario’s auto insurance system. The province says that by modernizing Ontario’s auto insurance system, Ontario is allowing insurers to provide greater peace of mind to ridesharing passengers and their drivers.

The Regional Municipality of Niagara Police Services Board recently approved an amendment to the Licensing By-law for the regulation of Transportation Network Companies like Uber. The lengthy by-law forces a number of new restrictions on TNCs and their drivers, including driver background checks and vehicle safety requirements identical to those applied to taxi drivers and taxi cabs, minimum fare restrictions, vehicle identification requirements and increased recordkeeping and maintenance requirements.

Greenbelt photo winners on Fenwick seniors residence proposed display at Balls Falls BY VOICE STAFF
Twenty winning photos showcased at Centre for Conservation as part of Golden Horseshoe photo tour As part of the celebrations of the 10th Anniversary of the Greenbelt, the Friends of the Greenbelt Foundation partnered with the Professional Photographers of Canada – Ontario, and the McMichael Canadian Art Collection to host a photo competition featuring scenes from the Greenbelt. The winning photos are now going on tour through the Greater Golden Horseshoe. The twenty winning photographs will be on display at the Ball’s Falls Centre for Conservation for visitors to enjoy. The winning photos, selected by a jury of professional photographers and creative employees from the three participating organizations, were featured in an exhibition at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinberg and were recently showcased at the Malton Gallery at Toronto Pearson Airport. The photos capture stunning landscapes, agricultural, wildlife, and human subjects, and are touring the Greenbelt. Part of the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority, Ball’s Falls Centre for Conservation is in the heart of the Niagara Escarpment on the Bruce Trail. The exhibit highlights the natural and agricultural heritage Ontario offers residents and visitors alike. “We’re pleased to receive the acknowledgement from

A new, 76-unit seniors residence may be coming to Baxter Lane in downtown Fenwick. On Monday, Pelham Town Council received information regarding an application from Upper Canada Consultants seeking approval to amend a zoning by-law to re-zone the property at 1105 Baxter Lane from a site-specific Residential Multiple Village 2 and Residential Village 1, to a site specific Institutional. The applicant requires this approval in order to build Baxter Hall, a seniors facility with 76 one-bedroom suites and some neighbourhood commercial uses. In their presentation to Council, Upper Canada Consultants explained their vision for the building, arguing that it would maintain the architectural feel of the area, while providing a much needed service for the village. The units would be for senior care, which the applicants differentiated from long-term, or palliative care. There would be a general kitchen and dining area and an indoor pool, among other amenities. “It will be something that we would be happy to put our parents or ourselves in,” said one representative. They also pledged to hire local workers to fill the estimated 15-20 jobs that the facility would bring, including nurses, cooks, cleaners and other care workers.
The proposed Baxter Hall site currently serves as a small apartment complex. Though the applicants painted a cheery picture, several residents were not sold on the idea. One resident cited a concern for his property value and the inevitable noise that comes with frequent visits by emergency service vehicles. Another resident, Dan Marr, wondered what such a facility would do to the makeup of Fenwick, arguing that it would no longer be a village. “With this being built, our little village is no more,” he said in an address to Council. “Do you want to go down in history as the Council that changed our little village forever?” Councillor Rybiak, how-

ever, felt the building would be a positive addition, citing future developments planned in other parts of town. “I see it as a net gain for the village potentially down the road,” he said. “Fenwick is changing whether this development goes ahead or not. Councillor Accursi expressed some reservations

about parking, and whether the applicants could meet their needs without being an eyesore. The applicants felt that they could mitigate those issues in various ways. Having received the information, Planning staff will now prepare a recommendation report for Council.

IN THE NEWS Fenwick Break and Enter
On Friday, June 24 Niagara Police responded to a break and enter to a shed at a residence on Centre Street near Foss Rd. A chain saw and a gas can were taken. On Monday, July 4 police were called back to the same residence in the area of Centre near Foss for a report of a stolen go- cart from the driveway there. The gocart has a black frame and pool noodles attached to the sides. Residents are warned to lock all sheds and garages and secure valuables behind locked doors.
Police respond to man in crisis
Early Monday morning, police in St. Catharines became aware of a concerning post on Facebook by a 24-year-old man. The post made reference to self-injurious behavior. In response, officers attended a fourth floor apartment near the corner of St. Paul Street and Carlisle Street to check on the man’s welfare. The man refused to open the door or exit the apartment. He subsequently barricaded the door.
Uniformed officers then received assistance from the Niagara Regional Police Service Crisis Negotiators team, Emergency Task Unit, K9, and Tactical Support Group. The St. Catharines Fire Service and Niagara Emergency Medical Services were also on-scene. Crisis Negotiators spoke with the man for some time until officers became concerned for his welfare and the door was forced open. At approximately 9:45 AM the man was apprehended under the Mental Health Act of Ontario. He did not have any injuries. He was transferred to a local Niagara Health Services site for further evaluation. The man was also the subject of an unrelated investigation that remains ongoing.
Equipment sales indicate health of farm sector, says FCC
Promising farm cash receipt projections suggest new farm equipment sales will slowly improve over the next two years, according to Farm Credit Canada’s latest agriculture economics
www.thevoiceofpelham.ca
DETOUR report. The report forecasts a seven-per-cent recovery in total farm equipment sales for 2017, buoyed by projections of stronger cash receipts in coming years. Total new farm equipment sales fell by 13.8 per cent in 2015, due to uncertainty surrounding Canadian crop production and weaker commodity prices. Higher prices for new equipment in Canada— as a result of a weaker Canadian dollar — also contributed to a decreased demand for equipment. Strong new equipment sales prior to 2014 made 2015 sales appear low, even though they were in line with the 10-year average. The report projects crop receipts will increase 5.8 per cent in 2016, with a further 3.8-per-cent increase in 2017. These projections are highly influenced by strong prices in futures markets for major grains and oilseeds, as well as a Canadian dollar that is expected to remain below its five-year average. Continued low interest rates will likely boost sales, especially of larger equipment.

a day if he did not comply with the order. Now he’s not sure what he will do. “I have no idea,” he said, “we may have to find a home for them, I’m not sure. We don’t really know many people with farms, and not with 25 acres.” After receiving the notice from the town, Fredette began circulating a petition to
have the by-law changed. He says he received a strong response, and noted that a number of farmers in the area were as surprised as he was to learn about the limitation. Many were in a similar situation—below the 25-acre minimum acreage yet maintaining a couple of cows or horses. The petition received more than 100 signatures in the first day.

Fredette will be attending that meeting, and hopes to present Council with his petition and speak on his own behalf. He says he would like to see the by-law changed to limit livestock on a per-acre basis, rather than enforcing an unreasonable minimum acreage. “A young family can’t afford 25 acres.”

The Draken Harald Hårfagre docked along the Welland Canal.
VOICE PHOTO
Viking ship at Canal BY ZACH JUNKIN
The VOICE
One could almost hear the blast of the war horns as the Draken Harald Hårfagre made its way through the Welland Canal last week, with hundreds of onlookers gathering along the locks to watch her pass. The vessel is claimed to be the largest Viking ship built in the modern era. Launched in 2012, it measures 35 metres long, 8 metres wide, and weighs over 95 tons. The ship was passing through the canal on her way to the United States. “The American Expedition,” as this current trip is called, is meant to explore one of the most mythic sea voyages in Western history: the Viking discovery of the Americas. The ship set sail from Haugesund, Norway on April 26, making stops in Iceland, Greenland, Newfoundland (and the known Viking settlement of L’anse aux Meadows), and Quebec before spending the night in Port Weller and preparing to move through the canal. News of a Viking ship sailing the locks piqued people’s interest throughout the region, and many were on hand to watch the unique boat make its way from Lake Ontario into Lake Erie. The ship uses the distinct, square sail thought to be used by the Vikings, attached to a centre mast. Her top speed under sail is 14 knots and she can also be rowed via 25 oars, requiring two men each. She requires a minimum crew of 30 peo-
ple when sailing. The Draken Harald Hårfagre was conceived and built by Norwegian entrepreneur Sigurd Aase, who said he wanted it to be an inspiration to others. “The aim of the Draken Harald Hårfagre project is to
Page 7
explore the world and embrace the Viking spirit — to look beyond the horizon and seek adventure and to inspire people to take on challenges,” he said. The ship will make several stops along the Great Lakes through the summer.

This week in baseball BY MELISSA WELLS
Special to the VOICE
The Pelham Minor Baseball T-Ball program is off to a great start this year with six teams learning the skills of baseball and enjoying friendly competition with each other. Youngsters learn how to hit off of a T, run the bases, field in positions and throwing mechanics. The T-Ball All Star game will
be held on July 28 at North Pelham Park with representatives from each team competing and experiencing hitting off the pitching machine after the game. Many thanks to sponsors Tim Hortons, Canadian Curtis Refrigeration and Future Stars Photography for making this development program a possibility. The Pelham Medical Associates Mosquito Rep team
had a winning week, with a 21 – 4 trouncing over the Binbrook Bisons and a 7 3 win under the lights in Thorold. Andrew Behring hit a 2-run home run over the Binbrook fence for his first career homer. Ethan Krick hit a 3-run double and Ben Buttner doubled and walked twice. It was a pitchers’ duel in Thorold with Ryan Culig and Andrew Behring carrying the 7-inning game. Riley Smyth caught the entire game and Matthew Oakes hit a late game 2 RBI double to add

insurance to his team’s lead. The Willowbrook Nurseries Peewee Pelham Panthers won their game 12 - 2 against the St. Catharines Blue Jays. The mound saw Cole Langendoen throw 5 strikeouts in his two innings followed by Connor Denbak pitching 2 scoreless innings. Denbak also hit a solid triple to score 2 runs. Cade Royer’s impressive leaping catch stopped what was sure to be an extra base hit. Joseph Kita snagged a ball at third and threw to home plate to stop a run. Later in the week, the Willowbrook Nurseries Panthers played their Friday game under the lights at Sullivan Park against Thorold #1. Not only was the park lit up, but the Panthers were too, earning a 13 - 2 win. In the third inning Cole Langendoen hit a two run shot in the opposite field. The Denbak brothers ruled the fourth with Nathan pitching and Connor at first. Two grounders and

The Miller Restoration Peewee Rep team had two games last week against the tough Welland and St. Catharines Major teams. The boys fought hard, with Jake Passmore hitting a triple and stealing home, and singles by Wyatt Gibson, Owen Nicholls, Jackson Falardeau and Brendan Cruickshanks. Brendan Grenville made a great play at third to get the force out and Nathan Girling got a runner at second. In play against St. Catharines, Cole Townson hit a solid single and made two outs at second base defensively. Callen Vanderveen got his bat on the ball and Will Baltrusiunas closed the game with 3 up, 3 down including a strike out. The Fonthill Dental Midget team took to the home field on Thursday evening and prevailed against Thorold 10 – 7.

Leafs prospects play scrimmage in the Falls BY VOICE STAFF The future of the Toronto Maple Leafs was on display last week as the club’s prospects gathered at the Gale Centre in Niagara Falls for the annual development camp. NHL clubs see the camps as an opportunity to teach their young prospects how to be good professionals, providing seminars on nutrition and fitness, while evaluating skillsets and pinpointing areas that need improvement. While most prospects are a far cry from the household names that play for the team full time, that didn’t deter Leafs fans from coming out en masse to cheer them on. Hundreds of fans, many in blue and white apparel,
were lined up in the morning drizzle last Friday waiting for the doors to open, so they could ensure a good seat. Brock students Jake Beric, Peter Armata, and Brennan O’Sullivan were among those in attendance. O’Sullivan is studying sports management, noting the fact that Leafs assistant General Manager Kyle Dubas was a graduate of the same program. “We love how Dubas came from Brock and now he’s the assistant GM of the Leafs,” he said. “I’d love to be in his spot.” “And the fact that whole management team is here, that’s incredible,” added Beric, motioning toward the broadcast booth, where crowds had excitedly gath-
ered around Dubas, GM Lou Lamoriello, and head coach Mike Babcock. “Look at these fans, they’re crazy for them.” The diehard fan presence, which included young and old alike, were treated to a scrimmage and were given a first-hand look at players like Mitch Marner and this year’s first overall pick Austen Matthews. Though Matthews’ white team lost to Marners’ Team Blue by a score to 4-1, the phenom did register an assist and wowed fans with some creative plays, generating a number of strong chances. It left many in attendance, including the trio from Brock, salivating for puck drop in October. “We have a bright future ahead of us,” said Beric

Sawmill bridge replacement underway Last week, crews began work replacing the bridge on Sawmill Road between Centre Street and Wessel Drive. Replacement of the current bridge is being performed in accordance with the 2013 Municipal Bridge Appraisal. The structure is located about 90 metres east of the Centre Street intersection. According to the Town website, the project was tendered to Rankin Construction at a cost of $961,016, and is expected to be complete sometime in mid-October. The road will remain closed to thru-traffic until then.

Fire-up the Grille BY VOICE STAFF What took Louie DeAngelis two years in Innisville took him less than a week in Fonthill, as patrons were lined up in the street looking to get a table at the Pelham Street Grille during the official opening weekend of his new restaurant. Louie, a contractor-turned-restauranteur, spent years building a successful eatery up north, before selling and preparing for retirement. But those plans were quickly left behind when Catherine LaFreniere, a former manager of his who had moved to Pelham, finally agreed to help open a new
place in the area. “I’ve been asking her for five years to open up a breakfast place,” he said, citing Catherine’s exceptional service and managerial skills. “Finally she said yes, and we saw that this place was available.” Louie and his fiancé, Jane Boisvert, purchased the building, formerly Klager’s Meats, on the condition that they wouldn’t sell and develop. That was an easy agreement to make for Louie, who hopes to settle down and make Fonthill his home. And while he’s at it, he hopes to bring everything he’s learned to his latest
enterprise on Pelham Street, which he says relies on great service and excellent food. “It’s all home cooking,” he said. “Very little comes from the freezer, which makes all the difference.” Louie says that with this business, he is now entirely invested in Fonthill, which is just fine by him. “The best part about the whole thing is getting the chance to retire here,” he said. “This is a total change from where I was. The weather, the views, this area is amazing.”

continued from Page 1 review process.” Since it is a small holdup, town staff do not expect the construction schedule to be affected. “There is no implication in terms of the scheduled completion date at this time,” said Holland. Holland further explained that there was
nothing especially unusual about the permit situation. “It is not uncommon to have multiple sequential permits for a project,” she said. “The contractor has applied for a Building Permit which encompasses all remaining work.” Work on the site had also been briefly sidetracked when some equipment broke through an old sep-
tic tank, but Holland says those issues have now been resolved. “An old septic tank was discovered during excavation, which wasn’t surprising given the age of the building. The tank was properly decommissioned when the building was tied into the sanitary system many years ago. It contained groundwater only.”

What’s a bog, anyway

Access to the Wainfleet Bog Conservation Area was prohibited and roads closed as crews worked to control the blaze. VOICE PHOTO
BOG FIRE continued from Page 3 quickly. “In the past when we’ve had larger fires than this we’ve had more species loss,” explained Reles. “So there’s not as much evidence of that, which is a good thing.” The peat itself can take thousands of years to replenish. “It’s all dependent on the depth of the burn,” said Reles. “Right now, we’re looking at only two very deep spots of burn in the peat canal, so those two
sections will take a lot of time to regrow, however most of it will bounce back fairly quickly.” While the MNRF and the NPCA have not been able to say definitively what caused the fire, the leading theory is that a lighting strike ignited the blaze. Several confirmed lightning strikes occurred within the bog’s boundaries in late June. However, other ignition sources are not being ruled out, including carelessly thrown cigarettes, or even broken glass acting as a magnifying glass under the sun. “We’re not ruling anything out right now, we’re
just trying to minimize the damage and mitigate some of the risk down the road as well.” The excessive heat and dry weather also played an important role, according to Reles. “We had one of our superintendents doing readings on groundwater monitoring stations out there earlier, and he has seen a few fires in the bog before, and he sort of raised the red flag saying it was incredibly dry and that we were at high risk for a bog fire. So that is absolutely a contributing factor.”
Salvation Army robbed in Port Colborne
Last Tuesday, a male suspect entered the Salvation Army store located at 50 Clarence Street in Port Colborne. The suspect approached the checkout counter and demanded cash while openly carrying a weapon. The suspect fled the store in an easterly direction. The suspect is described as male, tanned skin, 5’11”, 150-160 Lbs, 25 years of age, short brown hair, clean shaven, wearing a grey t-shirt, and brown shorts. Police are asking the pub-
lic forward any information to the Niagara Regional Police Service 3 District CIB, 905-688-4111 ext 3311.
Bar fight results in manslaughter charge
On Sunday May 8, shortly before 2:00 AM, Niagara Regional Police and EMS responded to a medical assistance call at the Belmont Hotel in Port Colborne. On arrival, a male was found unresponsive on the floor of the bar. The male was transported by ambulance to Welland County General Hospital and subsequently transported by air ambulance to Hamilton General Hospital with serious injuries.

between 12,000 and 5,000 years ago as the glaciers from the last Ice Age melted and retreated. Water pooled in the low, flat land behind the adjacent Onondaga Escarpment, which prevented surface water from draining south to Lake Erie. Over time this open water area filled in as plants died, and provided a habitat for unique flora and fauna able to withstand the acidic and low nutrient site conditions.

IN THE NEWS continued from Page 3
A bog is a wetland that accumulates peat, which is partially decayed organic or vegetable matter, often mosses, and usually sphagnum moss. Peat forms when plant material, usually in wet areas, is inhibited from decaying fully by acidic and anaerobic conditions. Peat usually accumulates slowly, at the rate of about a millimeter per year. Being relatively young in geologic time, the Wainfleet bog was formed
On May 11, the victim, identified as 34-year-old Randy Dudek of Port Colborne, succumbed to his injuries. Members of the Niagara Regional Police Homicide Unit continued the investigation into the incident. Last Friday, 21-year-old Nicholas Benner attended Niagara Regional Police offices in St. Catharines where he was arrested and charged with Manslaughter in relation to the incident. Mr. Benner was held pending a bail hearing.

FAITH & FAMILY Ask the Pastor: Commentary by Daniel Calgagno
W
HAT IS a country? Is a country simply a geographic location, with arbitrary border lines? Maybe I’m naïve, but I believe that human beings should be free to live their lives however they want — so long as they bring no harm to others — and they should be able to enjoy the fruits of their labour. Whenever I see others in the world stand for this same belief, I consider them to be my countrymen. In that sense, a country based on the same worldview holds no physical border lines.
The people of Britain recently chose to exit the European Union. To whatever degree this move allows the British people to experience more freedom and independence, I applaud their choice. Some in Canada feel we should be equally bold, and completely disconnect ourselves from the British monarchy in a step towards more freedom and independence. In American politics, a message is resonating with many: America should be concerned with ensuring its own greatness, rather than

interfering in the rest of the world. I might disagree with Donald Trump on several issues, but I certainly agree with him that America is at its best when it is being a shining example of liberty and prosperity, rather than spreading itself too thinly around the world. According to 1 Samuel 8:10-18, the people of Israel demanded that God give them a king — but, interestingly, God warned against having one. God spelled out just how dangerous it is to centralize power, as the worst of society will try to gain that power for themselves. The solution is to let power be divided as much as possible. In an ideal society, each person would be sovereign over their own lives and property; society would come together organically — not as a result of the dictates of a government, but because people come together to interact with one another for mutual benefit. My hope and my prayer is that we will continue to see more and more people subscribe to this view of society. Now that is the country I want to see!

Safety tips for sensible summer driving (NC) There’s a saying in Canada that we only have two seasons: winter and construction. As Ontarians hit the road this summer we need to remember that road construction is a temporary but necessary inconvenience and that road safety is every driver’s responsibility. This is especially true in construction zones. Collision data from the Ministry of Transportation shows an increasing number of collisions and fatalities in construction zones. Across the province, there were 1,519 collisions in construction zones in 2011, followed by 1,592 in 2012 and 1,694 in 2013. These collisions led to three, four and eight fatalities, respectively. It’s every driver’s responsibility to help prevent these tragic statistics by doing everything they can
to ensure construction workers’ safety. Follow these tips to keep road workers, your passengers and yourself safe this summer. 1. Plan ahead to avoid delays. Know where construction zones and other delays are beforehand so they’re not unexpected. Ontario511 is an excellent resource, as are traffic apps and radio stations that update information constantly. If possible, find an alternate route to avoid construction zones and other delays altogether. 2. Adhere to posted speed limits and other signage on the road. Speed limits change in construction zones for a reason. Make sure you follow posted signage and exercise caution in construction zones. 3. Avoid driving distractions. Plan your route before departing
and only use your cell phone when parked. Make sure to pre-set your climate control, mirrors, GPS and radio stations in advance. 4. Treat construction zones as if they were your own workplace. Show respect for construction workers by treating these zones as if they were your own workplace. Treat construction workers the way you’d like to be treated when you’re at work. 5. Stay off the majors. Construction and traffic can be more prevalent on major routes throughout the summer. Stay off the highly travelled and popular roads and take advantage of Ontario’s countryside to avoid delays and enjoy the scenic route. Find more tips for staying cool and safe on our roads this summer at www.orba.org or #SiteUnseen. T:10.375”
