Nicole’s spirit of inclusion spreads to Parliament Hill

Central Hastings - Madoc’s Nicole Flynn is really going places – all the way to the Office of the Prime Minister of Canada, in fact. Last week, Nicole joined MP Mike Bossio for a meeting with Prime Minster Justin Trudeau in his historic Centre Block office. “Meeting the Prime Minister was a dream come true, I was ecstatic,” said Flynn. “I didn’t know what to say. The Prime Minister looked right at me. He did not treat me like I was invisible. He knows that I have a difference but he treated me equal to everyone else. I look up to Prime Minister Trudeau because he encouraged me. I know I have to start with my education so that I can get up to where I want to be for my career and he encouraged me.” As a person with Down Syndrome, Nicole advocated for the meeting in order to present the Prime Minister with a poem that she has written called “I Am Not Invisible,” which she had presented to Bossio earlier. “I don’t make many meeting requests of the Prime Minister since he has such a busy schedule, but I really wanted to come through for Nicole on this meeting,” said Bossio. “I met with Nicole earlier this year and she impressed me so much with her strength, dedication, and tenacity.” Nicole has been interested in politics for quite some time, and has ideas of her own to contribute, which quickly becomes clear in discussions with her. “If I had more time I would have liked to tell the Prime Minister that I support a change to our electoral system

to give smaller parties an opportunity to get a seat and to be heard. Maybe there could be a Disability Party,” suggested Flynn. Flynn’s goal is to become a senator someday, but she believes that it is not fair that “the rule for people applying to be a senator says the individual must own a piece of land.” She points out that since she has a disability, she “cannot own land or I will lose my Ontario Disability Support Program benefits.” Bossio pointed out that “Nicole instantly makes a good impression. I know that with her hard work ethic she will go far. If she sets her mind to it, the possibilities are endless.” Poem in its entirety: I Am Not Invisible by Nicole Flynn People talk to me as if I am a child... I am an adult, Look in my eyes and talk to me as an adult. People talk to me as if my feelings don’t matter I feel things, I hurt inside when things happen. People won’t even let me try I want the chance to try, I might make mistakes; I will keep trying. People do not see me; they treat me like I am invisible I am here, I want people to look at me. People tell me what to do all of the time I can make decisions, I am able to think for myself.

People treat me like a non-person Photo courtesy of the Office of the Prime Minister I am a human being, Shown here in Ottawa are Nicole Flynn, her father Duane Flynn, and mother Kathryn Primrose, with Prime Minister Justin I am not a mistake. Trudeau and MP Mike Bossio.

Macmillan back to work in Trent Hills – with some unfinished business BY JOHN CAMPBELL

Trent Hills – “It’s business as usual,” says Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan who resumed work last Friday after undergoing surgery for Stage 4 pancreatic cancer in Germany. He returned home Oct. 27, got caught up on council business the next day, and was all set to attend council and county committee meetings this week. “I feel great,” Macmillan said. There’s one more thing on his to-do list: “I’m also working on my draft letter to the ombudsman and I’m going to pick up right where I said I was going to” -- go after the provincial government for denying him out-of-country funding. “It’s premeditated murder,” he charged, levelling an allegation he has made many times, which Minister of Health and Long-Term Care Dr. Eric Hoskins and local MPP Lou Rinaldi have dismissed, while expressing sympathy for what Macmillan has been going through. Both men said the government leaves it to health experts to decide best practices and which operations outside the province merit covering the cost for Ontarians. The life-saving operation known as NanoKnife irreversible electroporation (IRE) that Macmillan underwent Oct. 6 in Straslund is considered experimental by the province but it’s done regularly in countries such as Germany and the United States. Macmillan said “it’s going to take some time to perfect” his letter to the ombudsman because he wants to make it “crystal clear” that the province’s out of country funding program, “and especially the appeal process, is rigged ... They fixed it so the applicant will fail.” He plans to carry through with his vow to get the system changed so others will be able to be helped right here in Ontario. “My story is over with now, it’s about everyone else that needs this,” Macmillan said.

He said the money it cost him for his operation could easily be handled by the province as well as operations for a thousand other Ontarians with pancreatic cancer who need surgery. He has no intention of backing down. “I love a good fight,” he said. Progressive Conservative MPP Lisa MacLeod (Nepean-Carleton) is in his corner. She recently proposed setting up an advisory committee to make recommendations for improving the system. It would look at other countries to see how they handle “catastrophic care” cases. Macmillan’s surgery, which involves the use of probes to deliver electrical pulses, “killed” the tumour but it couldn’t be excised from the pancreas because it’s “so wrapped around in there,” he said, and “they didn’t want to take a chance on removing it and doing some damage.” The cost of the trip and care he received was more than $60,000, and he will have to use some of his own money to pay the bills. The amount raised online through GoFundMe shows roughly that amount was raised, but upwards of nine per cent was claimed in fees by the service for administrative and related costs, he said. Two bands contacted him, including one in Peterborough, offering to hold a fundraising concert but he suggested they support a local cause. “Although I really appreciated it, it wouldn’t be fair for me to accept money that I don’t need.” Macmillan said a DNA analysis is being done on his tumour to determine what treatment is best for him now and for how long. One possibility is “targeted chemo.” There is “a good chance” he will require chemotherapy “but I’m not committing to it at this point.” If the recommendation is that he be treated with Folfirinox, a combination of chemotherapy drugs, he will have “to think long and hard about it,” Macmillan said. “It damned near killed me (before).” File photo

NOTICE OF OPEN HOUSE

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2016 4 P.M. – 7 P.M. HASTINGS CIVIC CENTRE The Municipality of Trent Hills and Lower Trent Conservation are hosting an Open House to invite comments from the public on a proposed enlargement of the Lower Trent Conservation watershed boundary to encompass those areas of the Municipality of Trent Hills that are not currently under conservation authority jurisdiction. The area of consideration is on the north side of the Trent River and extends from the northwest corner of Seymour Ward to the east side of Crowe Bay, in the vicinity of Petherick’s Corners, as shown on the attached map. The process for enlarging a conservation authority’s jurisdiction is set out under Section 10 (1 -4) of the Conservation Authorities Act. A meeting of the Conservation Authority and municipalities will be required to consider and vote on the proposed enlargement. The purpose of the Open House is to obtain public opinion on the proposal prior to calling the meeting. Currently, the Municipality is partially located within the watersheds of Otonabee Conservation, Crowe Valley Conservation and Lower Trent Conservation. Approximately 25 km2 is located outside of conservation authority jurisdiction. As such, the area is not regulated under the conservation authorities’ regulation and conservation authority services are not provided. By bringing this area into conservation authority jurisdiction, similar services and development controls will apply across the Municipality. If you are unable to attend the meeting, you are invited to send comments in writing, no later than Monday, November 14th to: Jim Peters Director of Planning Municipality of Trent Hills jim.peters@trenthills.ca 66 Front Street South, PO Box 1030 Campbellford, ON K0L 1L0 or Glenda Rodgers Chief Administrative Officer Lower Trent Conservation glenda.rodgers@ltc.on.ca 714 Murray Street Trenton ON K8V 5P4

President of the Tweed-Hungerford Agricultural Society Sylvie Dunham displays some of the exhibits in the Haunted Hall, an annual Halloween project of the society.

Haunted Hall draws Halloween thrill-seekers BY BRETT MANN

Tweed – By the day before Halloween more than 200 adults and children had taken a scary tour of the Haunted Hall, a project of the Tweed-Hungerford Agricultural Society, which has run the Halloween tours for four years. Volunteers from the society and beyond transform the white building at the Tweed fairgrounds into a dark maze of surprises to navigate. Skeletons, zombies, skulls, freakish masks and a demented-looking “science lab” present new and scary tableaux around each corner. Ghoulish actors who pop out unannounced from cobwebs draped from the high ceiling deliver thrills and chills as well. Sylvie Dunham is president of the society and reports that the Haunted Hall draws more visitors each year. “We’ve cut it down to just weekends because doing it through the week is just too hard,” she says. Despite the reduced number of days about the same number of visitors had come through by Sunday afternoon as last year, Dunham observes. “We have kids from two years old to adults who are retired that go through.”

Sometimes the younger kids get “freaked out” by the exhibits so “We have our ‘panic word’” says Dunham. “If they yell ‘chicken’ then the guide blows the whistle and that means everybody stays where they are.” Six volunteers require six days to prepare the Haunted Hall, Dunham reports. A further 20 volunteers serve as guides and actors. Ideas for the creative and effective exhibits are often found through internet searches. Similar haunted tours are held in other communities including one at Fort Henry in Kingston. The Tweed project began when a member of the society who had a large collection of Halloween decorations donated them on selling her home. “We just Google freaky things and see what we can find and be creative with.” A new addition this year is a maze outside. “It’s not a difficult one but in the dark it’s interesting,” says Dunham. Visitors come from as far away as Belleville, Trenton and beyond. “We’re hoping to let a wider audience know that we’re here. People enjoy it,” she notes. Profits from the event go toward the work of the agricultural society.

the Catholic Church to join. Young people should consider taking up hunting because it is part of Canada’s tradition, “it connects us with our wildlife and conservation” and it leads to “a greater appreciation” of the value of food and nutrition. “One of the things we do is we help the kids get their hunter safety course and their hunting licence by providing financial assistance,” he said. Cost can be “quite a barrier to younger people getting into the sport.” O’Neill said there are “very few (Saint Hubertus fraternities) in Canada right now, if any.” The organization, which has about 50 members across Ontario, was incorporated as a non-profit this year. O’Neill also holds camp-outs on his property on Bradley Bay Road where young people learn field craft and how to survive in the wilderness. They also play games such as paintball. For more information about the fraternity, call O’Neill at 705-632-9479.

Campbellford high school hands out junior awards BY JOHN CAMPBELL

Campbellford – Campbellford District High School (CDHS) held its annual Junior Awards for 2015-16 last week, and one number in particular stood out: 65 per cent of the students in grades 9, 10 and 11 made it into the Honour Society. That’s “very high,” and “quite an accomplishment for a school,” said Trish Wood, CDHS guidance and career education counsellor. The school is a leader among the public school board’s high schools for the “credit success rate” of its junior students and now they are “leaders as well for having so many of them recognized for achieving an

Trent Hills – An organization dedicated to promoting western hunting traditions will hold a special mass at St. Mary’s Catholic Church this Saturday Following its inaugural mass, The Fraternitas Sancti Huberti – the Fraternity of Saint Hubertus – will head over to Christ Church Parish Hall for a wild game luncheon where duck, pheasant, moose, venison and rabbit will be served. The group was founded by Trent Hills farmer Rory O’Neill and the friends he has hunted with for years. “It’s about getting together more than anything else,” he said. The fraternity takes its name after the eighth century German bishop who became the patron saint of hunting and is considered the originator of ethical hunting behaviour. The fraternity is “very much conservation-centred, and ethics-centred,” O’Neill said. Younger members are taught to treat the animals they kill “with respect. That’s another aspect we want to pass on to the next generation so that there’s enough to hunt for everybody.” The organization, modelled after St. Hubertus fraternities in Europe, encourages the younger generation to take up hunting, O’Neill said. His two sons – Valen, 15, and Rohan, 13 – have taken an interest, as have the sons of other members. The fathers wanted their sons to

OPINION

Sometimes Trump is right Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Donald J. Trump’s record is not that good, but he does get it right once in a while. He got it right on Tuesday, when he said that Hillary Gwynne Dyer Clinton would be dangerously agressive in Syria if she wins the presidency. Trump went too far, of course. He always does. He claimed that Clinton would trigger World War Three with her Syrian policy, which is utter nonsense. Even a new Cold War is hard to imagine. The Russians know that they would lose it in only a few years, so they would refuse to play their allotted role in any such scenario. What Trump actually said, in an interview conducted in his Florida golf resort between bites of fried egg and sausages, was that the United States should focus on defeating ISIS. “We should not be focusing on Syria. You’re going to end up in World War Three over Syria if we listen to Hillary Clinton.” The Clinton policy in question is her promise (repeated in the third debate) to declare a no-fly zone and “safe zones” on the ground in Syria to protect non-combatants. Those zones, of course, would deny the Syrian government the chance to recover the territory it has lost to the rebels, and deprive the Russian air force of the ability to help it in that task. But what if the Syrians and the Russians don’t accept that the United States has the right to set up no-fly zones on Syrian territory just because it feels like it? What if they send their planes into those zones and dare the US air force to shoot them down? Then the US has to choose between backing down and being publicly humiliated – or shooting down Russian aircraft and (according to Trump) starting World War Three. “You’re not fighting Syria any more, you’re fighting Syria, Russia and Iran, all right?” Trump explained. If Hillary Clinton set up her no-fly zones and “safe zones”, she would be asking for a war with Russia. She would indeed be asking for it – but she knows that she probably would not get it. The Russians might shoot down a few American planes in response, and the United Nations would plead with both sides to show restraint. By then both sides would

be sufficiently frightened that they would be all too happy to back away from their confrontation. The Russians would be especially happy to do so, because they know perfectly well that they could not win a war with the United States. Even leaving aside the question of nuclear weapons (which make such a war unthinkable), Russia is simply not a credible rival to the United States any more: it has half the population of the former Soviet Union, and an economy onetenth the size of the United States. So Clinton would not really be courting World War Three if she did what she has promised. She would, however, be doing something very reckless and stupid. After Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya, the United States really does not need to get more deeply entangled in another unwinnable war in the Middle East. What Trump is advocating is actually the policy that Obama has been following over the whole five years of the Syrian civil war: concentrate on eliminating ISIS, and do not get involved in the rebel military campaign to overthrow Bashar al-Assad’s regime however much you may dislike it. No more moral crusades. Whereas Clinton, by declaring no-fly zones, would effectively be creating safe areas for the rebels to operate out of. However, the great majority of the active anti-regime fighters belong to ISIS, or to the equally extreme group that used to be called the Nusra Front and is now changing its name every week or so in an attempt to conceal its true origins as a breakaway part of Islamic State and an affiliate of alQaeda. Most of the smaller rebel groups that Washington calls “moderates” are actually less extreme Islamists who are either voluntarily allied with the Nusra Front, or in thrall to it. But the fantasy still lives in Washington that it can bring together enough genuine “moderates” to create a “third force” that defeats both the Assad regime and the extremists of ISIS and the Nusra Front. This has been the official position of the “Washington consensus” on foreign policy for five years now, and Hillary Clinton is a paid-up member of that delusionary group. If she carries through on her promises, she probably will trigger a crisis with the Russians, and she will certainly involve the United States much more deeply in the Syrian civil war. It’s almost enough to make you vote for Trump. But not quite.

An election best left in the rear view mirror Editorial by Chris Malette Never has there been a campaign like it. Nowhere on this continent can anyone recall or cite a battle for the highest elected office in the United States as low-down and dirty as that which has pitted Hillary Rodham Clinton against the reality TV star and hotel developer Donald Trump. Everyone from scholars to coffee shop commentators to barstool profits are chiming in on just how horrid the whole thing – that thankfully comes to an end next Tuesday – has been. From an Oct. 31 Associated Press story on the vitriolic campaign that may set the tone for all that follow, scholars are now marvelling at the train wreck that has become American politics. Princeton historian Julian Zelizer said the toxicity of the campaign will be remembered not simply as a fluke wrought by the Trump phenomenon, but as part of a trend. “More and more of the electorate sees themselves as almost living in two separate worlds,” Zelizer said. “And when this happens, you tend to vilify the opponent. It’s not simply another view, it’s an intolerable view.” Toronto Star’s Washington bureau reporter Daniel Dale hit the road to Virginia to randomly ask Americans at a bakery and a Walmart what they thought of Hillary Clinton. The answers to his question are not unlike what one might see among fire-and-brimstone conservatives in Ontario when asked to comment about Kathleen Wynne. “She’s a whore,” said Jim Brewster, a 62-year-old farmer, as he walked into the bakery for some coffee. “Murderous, rotten, no-good, pious … bitch,” said Waldo Ward, a 60-something retiree, as he left Walmart with Halloween candy for the neighbourhood kids. “She should be taken out and shot. Absolutely.” Thinks it’s bad in Amurrica’s heartland? We have the same rabid left-right warfare here on so many levels. In the last federal election, one local hard right backer who veers to the libertarian, neo-conservative, Tea Party edge of the political spectrum was kicked off the local Conservative candidate’s campaign team after intolerable Facebook posts were made public. Today, unrepentant and blaming ‘mainstream media’ and limp-wristed ‘so-called Conservatives with no spine…’ for ‘throwing me under the bus…’ the backroom worker carries on online with her blistering attacks on liberals – small and large L – calling liberalism a “death cult” and liberals/Liber-

als having been afflicted with “mental illness.” To descend into some of the gutter websites of the political crusaders, one risks becoming scarred by the sheer venom of the posts. It’s a reflection of just how far we’ve sunk in the political realm that we exorciate anyone in the most vicious terms who doesn’t adhere to our political views. It seems the gracious politics of just a decade or so ago is akin to recalling the ice ages, when looked at through the current mean-spirited prism of political gamesmanship. Take, as example, a letter making the rounds recently online that was recently posted by Hillary Clinton as a reminder of gentler statesmanship in the era of her husband Bill’s presidency and that of his predecessor, George H.W. Bush. On leaving office, Bush left a heartfelt note to his successor. Picture, if you could, either Trump or Hillary, for that matter, leaving such a missive for each other in that situation. Bush did not win re-election in his 1992 presidential race against Bill Clinton, but wished Clinton “good luck.” “I wish you great happiness here,” Bush wrote on Jan 20, 1993. “You will be our president when you read this note. I wish you well. I wish your family well.” It’s a mug’s game to wistfully insist things “were better back in the day…” but in the glare of the harsh, bitter edge to politics today, one could be forgiven for citing that hoary old claim. Politics can indeed be a blood sport. But, now even the spectators are in the ring, armed with a keyboard and hate in their hearts. *** Thank you Margriet, Diane, Terry We would like to take a moment here to thank three individuals who have helped make the Central Hastings/Trent Hills News your favourite local newspaper.

Moira Lake trestle bridge needs urgent attention Come to Stirling this say officials at emergency council meeting weekend for arts, crafts and holiday bargains

BY SUE DICKENS

Madoc – An emergency meeting called by the Municipality of Centre Hastings to resolve the situation caused by the impact of the closure of the Moira Lake trestle bridge was stymied by the lack of representation from the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) and the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP). “The purpose of the meeting of course is to discuss the little crisis we’ve got right now with the Moira Lake trestle bridge and the impact it has on the community and from a commercial basis as well and that impact is fairly strong,” said Tom Deline, mayor of Centre Hastings, to the officials and members of the public gathered for the meeting on Oct. 28. After approximately one hour of talking about temporary and longterm solutions a motion was approved to ask staff to “interact with MTO and the OPP” and report back to council before any decisions are made. Mayor Deline made it clear “this is an emergency case,” and that the MTO and OPP need to be contacted as council considers the safest temporary route for snowmobilers and ATVers. Mike Bossio, MP for HastingsLennox and Addington was among

record. They will be hearing from me as well.” The bridge was closed for safety reasons and estimates to replace the 136-year-old structure are put at about $1 ½ million. The closure had been recommended last fall by the municipal public works department and the firm of Greer Galloway. The bridge is part of the rail-trail and forms part of Trail of Two Lakes. Operations of the trail are managed by EOTA. “One of the key things I had hoped is that MTO and OPP would have been here. It probably would have been our suggestion to see if there is a way that temporarily we can utilize along the highway (62) up to North Shore Road to divert traffic that normally uses the trestle bridge until we go to the next stage of what to do with it,” noted the mayor. “We need to have a temporary route . . . the alternative is to spend $10,000 to do a full inspection to see if new supports could be put in.” The question of whether or not ATVs are allowed on Highway 62 south of Highway 7 was also debated without any resolution. “Today is to kind of let everybody know that we expect everybody to work together not put any blocks up. I will be quite blunt about that,” noted Mayor Deline.

7th annual Women’s Weekend a time for shopping and fun BY SUE DICKENS

Campbellford – “While the men are away deer hunting the women can play.” That is the catchphrase of the 7th annual Women’s Weekend in Campbellford. “The event is designed to have people come into Campbellford businesses and see what we have to offer,” said Nancy McCarten, who initiated the special promotion seven years ago. She is the owner of In Season on Front Street North. There are 30 businesses participating, which is one more than last year. Since the event began it has been very popular with the community. “We have everything from gift stores, to restaurants, a coffee shop, art studios, pharmacy, health and beauty, paint and paper, boutique, jewelry and much, much more,” she commented.

noted McCarten. Each of the participating businesses is doing something special for the public, such as a draw, special deals, demonstrations or a free gift. “It’s whatever the business feels comfortable doing. The Womens’ Weekend is designed so that there are many different types of businesses to see. Those participating have a poster they can put on their front window.” said McCarten. “The event was just to do something that could get some excitement going on in downtown for the weekend. You always have to do something to keep things new and fresh and exciting in your business. It’s an ongoing process. It’s never static. You can’t just sit back, you have to do something to make it look different and exciting to make people come in.”

Let 1000 tulips bloom – Tweed celebrates Canada’s 150th birthday BY BRETT MANN

Tweed – Chilly temperatures and overcast skies did not deter about 40 people from gathering at McCamon Park in Tweed for a tulip planting celebration at the end of October. The flower garden in the small park will bloom with thousands of red and white tulips next spring, a result of Tweed being one of 150 communities chosen to receive special Canada 150 tulip bulbs as part of the 150th Celebration Gardens project sponsored by the Canadian Garden Council and Vesey’s Bulbs of PEI. Tweed Mayor Jo-Anne Albert, Hastings County Warden Rick Phillips and MP Mike Bossio addressed the gathering, which included a group of pre-schoolers from the Little Learners Day Care Centre who participated in the planting. Albert described Tweed as being “very fortunate” in being chosen as a tulips recipient out of about 400 applying municipalities. In her prepared remarks, Albert thanked the Tweed Horticultural Society, Generations Carpentry and Pronk Canada for their roles in preparing the garden plots and signage. She also thanked MP

Bossio for “making these celebration gardens are tremendous and it makes us proud.” When you’ve got a community that is behind possible.” Thanks were also extended to Tim MP Bossio added, “I love my riding, I re- you and behind themselves, it makes it very Horton’s for donations of coffee, hot chocolate ally do. And Tweed is a very special place easy for the MP to want to be a part of it.” and Tim-bits. because I’ve always had so much support. “Hosting this 150th Celebration Garden is important in our municipality because it will add to the beauty of our community and be a time for us to connect, celebrate and show pride,” said Albert. Noting that the “garden will live long after 2017 is ended,” she pointed out “the municipality is also planting over 2000 of the specially designed Canada 150 tulips in our community and hamlet flower beds,” and encouraged residents to plant the Canada 150 tulips in their own flower gardens. Tweed received 1000 bulbs, 500 red and 500 white. In addition the municipality purchased 5000 hybridized bulbs resembling the Canadian flag for distribution. These bulbs are available at the municipal offices for $1. Community Development Manager Rachelle Hardesty was delighted with the turn out for the planting celebration. “I love it. I can’t believe how strong our community is. Everyone always comes together. It doesn’t matter what kind of weather or what kind of project. Our volunteers

Couple charged, drugs seized in Centre Hastings bust Centre Hastings – What began as a traffic stop ended in a substantial drug arrest for provincial police here, who have vowed a crackdown on drug trafficking in the community. Central Hastings OPP issued a statement outlining activities that took place Oct. 20 after officers conducted a traffic stop on Springbrook Road in Stirling-Rawdon. In that stop, police said the driver and passenger of the vehicle were both arrested and charged with possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking. Afterward, members of the OPP’s specialty units, including Organized Crime Enforcement Bureau – Drug Enforcement Unit (DEU), Emergency Response Team (ERT), OPP Canine Unit and members of Central Hastings Detachment executed a search warrant at a residence and a garage on Forsyth Street in the Municipality of Marmora and Lake. According to a statement issued by OPP, investigators seized marijuana, cannabis resin, cocaine, other Schedule I substances, prescription medication as well as other drug related paraphernalia. A large sum of money, a bulletproof vest, a dirt bike and an all-terrain vehicle were also seized. It’s the latest in a string of arrests after new detachment commander Staff Sgt. Scott Semple said stepped-up emphasis is being placed on tracking down those trafficking in the region, especially, in addictive drugs in Centre Hastings communities. Police said 33-year-old Brent Gerard, of Marmora, is charged with possession of marijuana – under 30 grams, possession of a Schedule I substance – Methamphetamine, pos-

100 Women come through for Warkworth hospice BY JOHN CAMPBELL

Warkworth – The $6,800 donation The Bridge Hospice received from 100 Women with Heart Northumberland is the kind of financial support it’s counting on to operate this year. Expenses are expected to reach $160,000 -$30,000 more than was budgeted a year ago – and the hospice is responsible for coming up with all that money, without government assistance. To do that it holds three fundraisers a year – a golf tournament, a walk and a run – and it relies on “third party events” and other funding sources to make up the rest, secretary Craig Kerr said. Cheryl Langevin, with the support of fellow Brighton resident Ruth Kerr, was responsible for obtaining the most recent grant. It was her presentation to the Northumberland chapter of 100 Women Who Care at a meeting held in Brighton in September that persuaded members of the charitable organization to vote in favour of making the donation (Cornerstone Family Violence Prevention Centre in Cobourg also received $6,800). Langevin said she was moved to advocate on behalf of The Bridge because of how “impressed” she was by staff when she was making arrangements for her son-in-law’s dying mother to spend her final hours there. The donation from 100 Women will be used to purchase equipment, such as an air mattress, “to enhance the comfort of our residents,” and to improve the hospice’s “communication capacity” so

that residents and their loved ones “can stay in touch,” said Bridge chair Jill Hutcheon. “The generous donation made by 100 Women with Heart speaks to the compassion, caring and community spirit across Northumberland County,” she said in a release. “There’s tremendous goodwill for the hospice,” Kerr said in an interview, but there’s also “a little bit of confusion” about what it does. Community Care Northumberland provides hospice care in the home, whereas The Bridge Hospice, the only residential hospice in Northumberland County, provides care when “the stress and the strain is too much for a family to look after all the medical needs” of a loved one at the end of life, he said. When it reaches that point, “we basically take over,” Kerr said, so the family can spend “quality time” with a member who is dying, in a setting that meets all their needs. “We’re just the next natural step ... when the situation becomes intolerable at home,” he said. “It doesn’t happen in every case but frequently when people are working and they have busy lives and they’re also trying to give 24/7 care to a loved one it just becomes overwhelming for them.” Added to all this are “the emotional burdens that are going on ... so we provide the opportunity for them to come here, (to) a home-like environment.” The Bridge does not charge for its services which includes round-the-clock health care that Saint Elizabeth Community Enterprise provides as part of a five-year agreement.

Bar stewards win Branch 106 Legionnaire of Year award BY BILL FREEMAN

Hastings – Four volunteer bar stewards will have their names engraved on the prestigious Legionnaire of the Year award at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 106 in Hastings. Lee Eno, Susan Scarborough, Doug Frost and Linda Raposo were honoured Saturday night, Oct. 22, during the branch’s annual honours and awards ceremony. The award is voted on by the branch membership. “It’s an absolute honour to be able to honour those people who volunteer for us,” Branch 106 honours and awards chair Leslie Rogers said after the ceremony. “It takes a lot of people to run a Legion, they do things over and above (being) bartenders,” Rogers said. “They’re just always there and always jumping into what needs to be done. We’re so lucky to have them.” The stewards receive no pay other than gratuities, and their volunteer service has helped the branch manage costs.

“As legions are dwindling and memberships are going down, young people aren’t coming into the Legion the way I did, the income is just not coming into the branches,” she added. “They stepped up to the plate,” said Rogers. The honour caught the recipients by surprise. “I didn’t expect to get anything like that,” said Raposo, who is also a member of the Branch 106 colour party and assists Rogers with honours and awards. “I’m very grateful. I’m blown away. I have the time. I donate the time. I will volunteer to do what I can do. I wear many hats,” she said. “Branch 106 is pretty important to me,” she said, noting that her grandparents both served in World War II. “I’m glad I get to carry the colours. It makes me feel part of them. I’m honouring them by bearing the colours.” “It’s awesome. I’m very honoured,” said Scarborough. “People should volunteer, it’s beneficial to everyone.”

Hits truck in lot, man charged Tweed - A man charged with impaired driving chose the wrong truck to nick in the parking lot of the local liquor store. On Saturday, October 22, Ontario Provincial Police, in a statement, said a pickup truck struck a parked vehicle in the LCBO parking lot on Bridge Street West in Tweed. Turned out, the struck vehicle belonged to an off duty police officer, who was alerted to the collision by a witness and the officer “subsequently followed the pickup truck south on Highway 37 while responding officers were en route.”

Police said a vehicle stop was initiated on Lost Channel Road where the driver of the pickup truck was placed under arrest for suspected impaired driving. But, police allege the driver of the suspect vehicle also struggled with the officer and he attempted to leave the scene in his truck. As a result, police charged 58 year old Kevin McMahon, of Tweed, with impaired driving, driving with more than 80mg of alcohol in blood, resisting a peace officer and failing to stop at the scene of an accident. He will appear in Ontario Court of Justice Belleville on December 1.

Deloro couple wins MVP at HOTie tourism awards night BY SUE DICKENS

Marmora/Deloro - Hastings County hosted its fifth Annual ‘HOTie’ Tourism Awards Celebration recently to recognize the successes and achievements of its tourism businesses, organizations, festivals and individuals. Among the presentations was the MVP award received by Laura Forth and James Smith for the Deloro War Memorial tribute film. They live in the village of Deloro, Marmora Township. “When we moved to this tiny village of 150 people, a sense of shame had engulfed the community as Deloro had long been vilified as the worst environmental disaster in Canada,” said Forth in her acceptance speech. “In our research we discovered a forgotten legacy, the critical role that the Deloro Mine played in ensuring victory for the Allies in the First World War and Second World War, and a sense of pride emerged, one that we wanted to share with the world,” Forth explained. “Although the mining and refining that occurred in Deloro left a terrible environmental devastation on the land and many Deloro Mine workers died as a result of exposure to the toxic elements, the cobalt and stellite produced there were crucial to providing the men and women of the

Allied Forces the tools they needed to defeat Hitler, the Nazis and fascism,” she added. It was last October at a ceremony in Deloro, that the War Memorial, an 11 ft. high black granite obelisk, “the world’s first” digital cenotaph honouring the historical contributions of local Canadian Armed Forces members and others, was unveiled. It was the worlds premiere of the couple’s movie ‘Lest We Forget – The Price of Freedom’ the Deloro Memorial tribute film, written by Forth. As a result of their efforts the obelisk can now be scanned with a smartphone or tablet to the site of the online film. “The film has been celebrated around the world from the London International Film Festival in England to the Canada International Film Festival in Vancouver, but this award means the most to us, because it comes from our peers, in our community, where we call home,” Forth said at the ceremony, giving thanks for the award. Their film can be found online at: www.deloromemorial.wix.com/canadawarmemorial Other HOTie awards presented that night include: Tourism Champion of the Year presented to Potter Settlement Winery, Tweed; and Festival of the Year to Stirling Water Buffalo and More.

Free winter wear at warmup event in Campbellford BY SUE DICKENS

Campbellford – The first snowfall in Trent Hills last week made the 3rd Annual Winter Warmup, a community event at Hillcrest even more timely. “Our goal is tagline keep everyone warm this winter,” said Emily Bertrand, a volunteer and parent of two sons, one of whom attends Hillcrest Elementary School, where the 3rd Annual Winter Warmup event will be held. She is spearheading the event this year. “It’s a community function, a community-run event,” she commented. “There’s a need in the community for children to stay warm and keep warm. Money can be tight for a lot of people coming into Christmas and this provides a lot of relief for a lot of the families.” To get the word out about the event, a notice is in the school newsletter and posters have been put up around town. As well it is on Facebook as the search for donations of winter clothing continues. “It’s not just outerwear. We also need sweatshirts and socks, warm pants and sweaters and more,” said Bertrand. And it’s for all ages of children, elementary school age right up to teens, event adults. Volunteers will sort the donated clothing and it will be set up on tables in the school’s gymnasium. “All the tables are usually full and the stage is also full. We have hanging racks too and there will be boxes of socks, mitts and hats.” Emily Bertrand and her sons Gavin Rogowski, left and Justin Bertrand noted that there’s always been a good response to their request for donations. Rogowski, right, are working hard to make the 3rd Annual Winter “We’ve always had a really good outreach to difWarmup at Hillcrest Public School a success. ferent groups. The Busy Bees donate and we get

hand knit scarves too.” Bertrand’s children, Justin Rogowski, Grade 7 at Hillcrest and his brother Gavin Rogowski, who is in Grade 9 at Campbellford District High School, will be pitching in to help set up for the event. Any leftover items are offered to other schools and some are kept for those times when students find they have wet mitts or their outdoor pants got dirty playing in the playground. Leftover items will be dispersed to places such as The Salvation Army. “Other schools are welcome to what’s left,” Bertrand noted. Best of all everything is free. The Winter Warmup takes place Sat., Nov. 5 from 9 a.m. to noon. Donations can be dropped off at Hillcrest school on Fri., Nov. 4 from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Campbellford/Brighton agency has 6,300 reasons to smile

Hortons Hiring Fair and a second session is planned for November 16, 2016 from 4pm-8pm for those interested in learning more about employment opportunities. When asked his thoughts on inclusive hiring, Mr. Robertson was quick to reply that “everyone deserves a chance” as evidenced by the employment thus far of approximately 10-12 people with a disability throughout his current six locations. Through Community Living Campbellford/Brighton’s Employment Supports initiative, Patricia recently accepted a position at the Campbellford Tim Hortons. As part of the initiative, Patricia receives ongoing job coaching to ensure a smooth transition into employment and the associated expectations. It’s a win-win situation for all. Established in 1960, Community Living Campbellford/Brighton provides support and services to approximately 140 people throughout Eastern Northumberland County.

Tweed council holds October meeting in Thomasburg Thomasburg - In keeping with Tweed council’s practice of holding one meeting each year in two of the municipality’s hamlets, the October meeting was held in the Thomasburg Hall. Judging from the lack of public attendance, there did not appear to be any burning issues hamlet residents felt needed discussion, although members of the hall committee have expressed concern about new insurance requirements for events at which alcohol is served. About a dozen members of the Tweed and District Horticultural Society did attend the delegations session to support a request by society representative Elizabeth Churcher to pave the pathways at Memorial Park to improve accessibility. Keeping the unpaved paths free of weeds is a task that has proven to be very labour intensive. The society is asking the municipality to pay half the cost of the paving. Churcher noted the work of the Horticultural Society in her remarks, pointing to bursary and school projects as well as the creation and maintenance of village planters and 13 individual gardens, a task which in itself requires 400 volunteer hours. Council agreed with Churcher’s recommendations and will look into paving the Memorial Park pathways. In a separate delegation, Tom Van Kooten of Abundant Solar Energy sought and received approval for two “small fit” solar projects on Sulphide and Flinton Roads with Councillor Flieler voting against. Flieler is a long-standing critic of provincial energy policies. Under New Business, council also approved an application for an on-farm biogas project on Kinlin Road. A rezoning application to amend zoning from rural to rural-residential for a 5.2 acre lot was accepted, as were two severance applications. Council passed by-laws to convey land to the municipality for road widening, to authorize the execution of a Contribution Agreement for OCIF (Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund) formula based funding, and to adopt a Tweed Arena user guide policy and procedure by-law. A Public Works recommendation to pay Danford Construction $129,204.95 (HST in-

cluded) for reconstruction of Crookston Road was approved. Also approved were recommendations from the Acting CAO/Clerk’s report to lease a Neopost IS-480 mailing machine, to pay over $15,000 for repairs to the Stoco Pavilion and to seek quotes for the repair of the elevator in the municipal building. Under Committee Reports council approved four livestock loss claims and agreed to submit a funding application to replace the pump at the River Street sewage pumping station. Council also agreed to reconsider the annual donation toward the Elvis Festival window display prizes. In her report Mayor Albert noted that Hastings County has passed a by-law limiting clear cutting saying the move will be “not restrictive at all for average landowners.” The by-law is intended to curb out-of-area (and out-of-country) groups which have been clear-cutting timber and shipping it out with no benefit to the local economy. She reported that Sandor Johnson of Potter Settlement Winery received the 2016 Tourism Champion Award at the HOTie award evening. Albert also noted the recent acquisition of a new pumper/tanker fire truck at a cost of over $300,000.

Norwood – The Norwood J.J. Stewart Nemesis looked well on their way to their second win of the season Sunday night (Oct. 30) but the Halloween goblins wearing Glengarry Highlanders uniforms rallied for five straight third period goals to sink the Nemesis 7-4 in Canadian Premier Junior Hockey League action. After falling behind 2-0, Norwood (1-10-0) found their groove in the second period firing in four unanswered goals to take a 4-2 lead heading into the third period. Garrett Ouel-

lette, Mitch Madgett, Joey Dodds and Owen Walsh all managed to put the puck behind Glengarry (6-4-0) stopper Sebastien Gilpin setting Norwood up for a strong finish and two points. That didn’t happen with the Highlanders cutting the lead to 4-3 five minutes into the third then evening the score with 11:09 left. The visitors took the lead for good four minutes later then iced the game with a pair of goals in the final four minutes of play. Norwood outshot Glengarry 30-29. Goalie Carson Schmeirs went the distance

for the Nemesis. It looked to be a nice bounceback for Norwood who fell 7-0 to the first place Altmonte Jr. Sharpshooters on Oct. 29.

We just have to have a complete game from start to finish, and we should do well.” CDHS lost 24-12 to Bancroft in the season opener on “a couple of mistakes,” Saito said. “One was not being able to score from the one-yard line and another was a kickoff return for a touchdown. We’ve gotten a lot better since then.” Saito said the two teams have benefited from having players who developed their football skills while in elementary school playing

Campbellford – The Flames hope to make history this week. Campbellford District High School’s junior and senior six-man football teams are in the East Regional finals, the first time that’s happened, and both will be looking to return home with a championship. The seniors advanced by defeating Bayside Secondary School 38-30 while the juniors followed suit by downing Bancroft 30-14. The seniors play Bancroft and the juniors St. Mary Catholic Secondary School in the finals. This will be the third year in a row the juniors have made

for the Trent Hills Titans in the Belleville Minor Football League. The Titans won the league for the second time in three years in June. As the only teacher supervisor among the coaching staff for both teams, he’s grateful for the involvement of the other coaches. “If we didn’t have the community volunteers we wouldn’t have the program,” he said. They’re “very valuable to the program continuing at our school (and) we’ve seen great growth in it.” Henry Zelasko and Jack Greben assist Saito while Joe Brouwers, Stu Budgell, Glenn Gratton and Alex Brouwers are in charge of the junior team.

on the score board. Rowles add 2 more goals for his hat trick with an assist from Tait Rosborough before the Flyers would finish the scoring. Rowles was awarded the Crosby/ price hardest working player. With an 11-4 loss the Grizzlies will now have a couple weeks off of their regular season games. The next game will be Nov. 20th in Marmora against the Gananoque Islanders. The Centre Hastings McAtomic Atom Grizzlies had a busy weekend of hockey. On Saturday, they traveled to Amherstview and played a hard fought game against the Loyalist Jets in which they came up on the short end of a 4-1 score. Jacob Heard score the lone goal for the Grizzlies with assists going to Jake Morrison and the goaltender Jackson Croskery. On Sunday they came out on top of the Ennismore Eagles 2-1 at home in Marmora. Jacob Heard scored 2 unassisted goals for the Grizzlies in the win. The Ontario Truss & Wall Bantam Grizzlies travelled south to participate in the 7th an-

nual PECMHA Recharge with Milk Tournament. Their first opponent was a familiar one at that, facing off against the Stirling Blues. It didn’t take the Grizzlies long as Karsten Leonard fired home a snap shot to open the scoring a minute into the game. Treyton Finch and Kobe Dostaler added to the lead with assists going to Jack Sandford(2), Kevin Clarke, Maerek Skalba, Finch and Leonard. The Blues would fight back and tie it up, but a nice short-handed individual effort by Skalba would result in the game winning goal with 11 seconds left in the second period. Their next opponent would be the Ottawa West Golden Kings. The Grizzlies would once again jump out to an early lead with goals from Sandford and Leonard. The Kings would battle, and a controversal goal with 44 seconds left in the game would result in a 2-2 tie. A short-handed Grizzlies team would then take on the Lindsay Muskies. It was a 1-1 game halfway through the second period with a goal by Leonard, assisted by Colby Laviolette. However,

the Muskies would prove to be too much resulting in a 4-1 loss. Their final tilt, was a physical one against the Durham Cruisaders with the Grizzlies muscling their way to an early 2-0 lead with goals by Leonard(2) and assists to Finch, Dostaler and Ben Bailey. Durham would cut the lead to one in the third, but the goaltending duo of Owen McMaster and Carson Ellis would prove to be too much and the Grizzlies would hold on for the 2-1 victory. The OTW Grizzlies would finish the tournament with an impressive 2-11 record but it wasn’t enough to carry on to the finals.

Students from St. Theresa get a PM moment on the Hill Belleville - It had all the makings of a standard tour of Parliament Hill until a certain prime minister showed up. Neil Ellis, Member of Parliament for Bay of Quinte hosted teachers Teressa Krentz and Sean Simpson and their Grade 10 civics class from St. Theresa Catholic Secondary School at Parliament Hill, last Wednesday, Oct. 26. The group was greeted upon arrival by Ellis who personally provided a tour of Parliament. While on tour, the students had the opportunity to meet U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security, Jeh Charles Thompson and U.S. Ambassador to Canada Bruce Heyman, who generously

took time to stop and speak with several students. To cap off what was a wonderful visit MP Ellis arranged a surprise meeting between the students and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. “What better way to inspire and foster a connection between young people and the government than by hosting them at Parliament Hill and allowing them the opportunity to forge a personal connection to our nation’s leaders and political system,” said Ellis. “I firmly believe that as a politician it is my responsibility to help inspire an interest in politics with young people and foster that interest by engaging them in a meaningful way on an ongoing basis.”

Paramedics receive awards at County Council BY JACK EVANS

Presentation of awards for various paramedic activities and achievements occupied several minutes of time at Thursday’s meeting of Hastings County Council. One was an award recognizing life-saving efforts of staff members at Prince Charles School in Belleville in an incident on Sept. 13, when a volunteer baseball coach suffered a cardiac arrest. A defibrillator device as well as other revival methods were quickly applied with the device inside the school and a 911 call to From left: Paramedics Chief Doug Socha, Todd Lamorre, Warden Rick Phillips and Mike Emergency Services brought quick response. The incredible efforts were successful and Slatter. The Paramedics received the Governor General’s Award for “Exemplary Service.” Jack Evans/Metroland Rex Somerville was revived.

He and family members plus the staff and volunteers who helped with the efforts were recognized with certificates presented by Doug Socha on behalf of Hastings-Quinte Emergency Services and Warden Rick Phillips for the county. Speaking for the family, Rex’s brother, Dan, himself a professional firefighter, expressed gratitude for the presence of mind and skills that saved the life of his brother. It was a “happy-ending story” he said. Also recognized were two paramedics recently presented with the Governor General’s Exemplary Service Award. They are Todd Lamorre and Mike Slatter, deputy chief of quality and development.

Congregations vote to close two of three churches BY SUE DICKENS

Campbellford – The congregations of three local churches voted to close the doors of two leaving a third for their Sunday service. Dwindling numbers of parishioners and the bottom line are what made this choice necessary. “These congregations chose life and chose to continue on and that is the most important message about all of this,” said Rev. Cathy Gradante, the pastor for all three. “It’s sad that they are closing . . . the physical structures were not being used as they were back in the 1950s and ‘60s, all the bustling . . . but the congregations chose to continue on, chose to be about community,” she explained. Parishioners of Stanwood United Church and Tabernacle United Church (also known as English Line United Church), are now attending Sunday services at Hoards United Church, now called Seymour United Church Pastoral Charge. The service has been held at Seymour church since January, but a closing ceremony for the Stanwood church building, which is about 112 years old, was held Sept. 25. “We had a baptism at the end of that service so we ended on a note of celebration and joy and new life. It was important for everyone to have a balance. You can’t just be all sad so we had some moments of memories and tears,” said Rev. Gradante. Both church buildings will be sold. The money will be used to keep Seymour church maintained and as well provide some much-needed upgrade including accessibility. That building is newer, dating back to the 1950s. “As long as congregation is still functioning they keep the money,” said Rev. Gradante, who has been pastor for the three churches since 2012. “Churches are struggling everywhere, not just here,” she noted. The local Presbyterian churches and Catholic churches are also undergoing changes and closures are not out of the question. “Financial implications are critical in all of this,” noted Rev. Gradante. The closing ceremony for Tabernacle church, which is about 125 years old, will be held Oct. 30. B2 Section B - Thursday, November 3, 2016

Quinte Grannies mark 10 years of fun and fundraising Belleville – It’s been a decade of fun and activism for one group of local grandmothers, members of which have spent that 10 years raising funds for those in need half a world away. On Oct 25, more than 60 local Grannies and their supporters, known as Grandothers, gathered at a downtown Belleville restaurant for a Celebration Dinner marking their 10th anniversary. Tributes were paid to Win Perryman, Dorothy DaviesFlindall, Bernice Hassay, the three women who founded the Quinte Grannies for Africa in 2006 and congratulatory messages from local MPs, MPPs and Mayors were shared. In 2006, a call went out from The Stephen Lewis Foundation (SLF) to grandmothers across Canada to join together in solidarity with African grandmothers affected by the ravages of HIV/AIDS epidemic. The result of HIV/AIDS has had an impact on millions of African grandmothers, stealing their children and leaving them to raise their orphaned grandchildren, most often with few resources and little support. And so the Grandmother to Grandmother Campaign was initiated. SLF provides grassroots support, both material and emotional, that is so desperately needed in sub-Saharan Africa. Since 2006 “the Grannies” have increased greatly in numbers, both locally and

across Canada, where there are now over 240 grannies groups. The local group has about 35 active members, who have raised awareness of HIV/AIDS and its impact on African grandmothers, advocated on their behalf for medication to treat HIV/ AIDS, and raised funds to provide financial assistance. Over the past ten years Quinte Grannies for Africa has raised over $270,000.00 for SLF. A visual history of Granny events and activities from the last ten years was presented that showed the commitment of Quinte Grannies for Africa to achieve their goals in many different ways such as jewelry sales, dessert bridges, fashion shows, calendar projects, harvest marketplaces. Guest and special friend to the Grannies singer/songwriter, Jeanette Arsenault, was recognized and made an honorary Quinte Granny for her ongoing commitment to the Quinte Grannies for Africa. She has recently written an inspiring song for the group called “Grandmothers Rising” which she sang to close out the evening. Grannies rose from their seats to dance with her in celebration. As the Quinte Gran-

nies look to the future, their goals remain the same, to continue their support of the remarkable African grandmothers as they move forward beyond the basic necessities and to seek justice in areas such as land and inheritance rights. We welcome new members.

Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chamber music outreach program coming to schools BY SUE DICKENS

Belleville â&#x20AC;&#x201C; An outreach program by the Quinte Society for Chamber Music (QSCM) is hitting all the right notes as it brings the elements of musical expression to a school near you. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Society is working hard at designing educational outreach programs that allow everyone to learn a little bit more about what the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;wordsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the musical sentences actually mean, and the significance of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;storyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; they tell.â&#x20AC;? That is the announcement on the Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Facebook page, and it is a focus for the committee, which already has plans in place for November. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our outreach program is essentially all about bringing classical music to places where no string quartet has gone before,â&#x20AC;? explained Bonnie Sallans of the Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s committee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In this case, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a string quartet but violin-piano duo, but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have quite the same rhythm when you say it.â&#x20AC;? All of this comes on the heels of the QSCMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presentation of Sebastian Sallans with pianist Todd Yaniw in a perfor-

mance at Stirlingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s United Church on Nov. 19. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Besides, soon a string quartet will be involved,â&#x20AC;? she said, offering a hint of what the future will bring. The November outreach will involve three schools in Trenton, Belleville and Prince Edward County. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In each of these schools, we will be talking to different classes,â&#x20AC;? she explained. Trenton is a vocal class where the students have little or no experience of classical music. In Picton, the Society may be visiting a class of non-music students â&#x20AC;&#x153;who will have probably no experienceâ&#x20AC;?, she said, as well as a music class. The group at Centennial is a little different, she noted, as Centennial Secondary School in Belleville is a performance school with music students, many of whom are contemplating a professional career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is important for us to reach out to young people from all these backgrounds, as we want to encourage music students to explore classical music,â&#x20AC;?she said.

The Society is focusing on high school right now, although it is also possible they may develop a program appropriate to the middle school level as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also want to give those already interested some contact with professional musicians already working in the field,â&#x20AC;? Sallans said. It is essential to the Society, she pointed out, to give those who have never had the opportunity to consider listening to classical music the chance to hear it played, and played well, by people standing right there in front of them and with whom they can have conversation when the music stops.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is our hope to also be able to take this program to the high school in Madoc and then Bancroft, in the Hastings Prince Edward board, and then reach out to Campbellford,â&#x20AC;? she said. Sallans invites everyone to check out the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s events page at http://www.qscmusic.com in the next few weeks, as they will be posting news of educational opportunities as well as discussion of concert program content there soon.

Loyalist among colleges tackling climate change Belleville â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s colleges, including Loyalist, are playing a leading role in Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts to tackle climate change, says a newly released report. The report, Moving to Net Zero: Colleges Leading the Way, highlights the 24 collegesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; achievements in everything from leading-edge research that promotes energy efficiency to the development of programs that prepare increasing numbers of graduates for careers in areas such as renewable energy and sustainable building construction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doing our part to improve the health of the planet is a priority,â&#x20AC;? said Dianne Spencer, Interim President, Loyalist College. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At Loyalist, we are firmly committed to the global effort to fight climate change.â&#x20AC;? The report documents achievements in five areas: research, community leadership, college programs, transportation and campus upgrades. The examples in the report confirm that all 24 colleges are playing an active part in the effort to reduce the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s carbon footprint.

For example, it highlights Loyalist Collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new carpooling program, which encourages students and staff to travel together to reduce carbon emissions. Each day, the first 24 carpool groups (vehicles with two or more people) who register with the front gate are granted oneday free designated parking privileges. Last year, Loyalist completed the STARS (Sustainability, Tracking, Assessment & Rating System) program â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a voluntary assessment for higher education institutions. The result: A Bronze rating for the Collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sustainability performance and recommendations for improvements, which are being led by Loyalistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sustainability Coordinator and Committee. During the last several years, the college has reduced its carbon footprint through policies and projects, such as Residence composting, LED lighting upgrades, building automation system efficiencies, light and faucet motion sensors, and most recently, centralized waste stations for increased recycling.

Quinte West - Trenton’s Sarah-Ellen Payne won $1 million in a recent Lotto Max MaxMillions draw. “I checked my lottery numbers online,” said Payne while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto where she picked up her winnings. “All six numbers matched up! I was shocked as I couldn’t believe it.” The 29 year old called her mom after the September 9 win to share to good news. “She seemed more excited than I was. I was feeling over-

whelmed.” Payne said she has big plans for her windfall. “I already bought a car and I plan to share some of my winnings with family. I was thinking about buying a new house. Plus, my boyfriend and I will be taking the kids to Disney world! This win gives me the freedom to do things that I couldn’t do before,” she said. The winning ticket was purchased at Price’s Variety on Byron Street in Trenton.

County rejects forestry protection BY JACK EVANS

If the grandchildren of today’s Hastings County council members start to wonder where their forest industry went, they can look to their ancestors. After two years of study and consultation and genuine concerns by several council members at uncontrolled stripping of prime forest resources, often from out-of-area interests, council Thursday overwhelmingly voted against a bylaw designed to remedy those concerns. The situation may have been nothing more than the question raised by Centre Hastings Mayor Tom Deline: “Must it be a county bylaw? Why can’t a municipality pass it?” But, the bylaw was a cornerstone of a major new official plan the county’s planning staff has been working on for literally years and stemmed from concern by some members about irresponsible harvesting that had been targeted to be include in that plan going back about two years. Council also faced three letters from landowners condemning the proposed bylaw as unnecessary further meddling in private property and costs of enforcing the new bylaw, estimated at up to $60,000 a year once the proposed bylaw would take effect next summer. Some members expressed doubts that the incidents of bad harvesting were exaggerated. Also, it represented just one more burden of interference in what owners do on their own properties. Council also heard a lengthy appeal from Jim Pedersen representing the county’s Stewardship Committee, who was one of the resource people involved in the bylaw consultations. Himself a forest lot owner as well as a professional forester, he contended that irresponsible harvesting was far more widespread than many realize and if not controlled could threaten

the county’s valuable forest industry in the long term, an industry that provides at least 100 or more good paying jobs. “It costs a lot more to restore a hardwood forest than it does to preserve it,” he said. He noted that the bylaw excludes any property smaller than 10 acres, cutting for domestic heating use or building or road construction areas. He also noted that woodlot owners qualify for a 75 per cent discount on taxes for “managed” forest lands, providing they abide by the program, but many are not enrolled. He argued the bylaw will “make things better for all in the long term. Please, pass this bylaw,” he appealed. Often referred to as a “tree cutting bylaw” to prevent poor harvesting methods, such bylaws are already in place in neighbouring Northumberland County, also in Haliburton. Mayor Vivian Bloom of Hastings Highlands, chair of the Planning Committee, said she supported the concept of such a bylaw , but the conditions imposed on landowners for permits and fees were too obstructive. “I had hoped we could take more time and make some changes first,” she said in a telephone interview. “The planning staff did not agree so the only thing I could see to do was lobby to defeat it.” She had doubts that a renewed approach to present a new bylaw was likely. She added that much of the concern that sparked the bylaw came from people who did not check the facts about forestry before complaining to the news media and council members. She agreed with reports that major companies target Hastings County because they know there are no regulations. “In a way, I’m sorry we couldn’t pass it, but it would have to be modified first,” she concluded.

A big old thank-you from BGH Foundation Belleville - It was a night to say thanks – thanks for the millions of dollars needed to equip Belleville General Hospital with state-of-the-art equipment such as a new MRI imaging machine. Representatives from Metroland Media Seaway Group joined dozens of others last week in basking in the gratitude of the hospital board, staff and foundation, responsible for capital fundraising initiatives. Metroland was recognized as a “Founder” in the donor categorizations, emblematic of having donated almost $95,000 toward varous campaigns for fundraising at Belleville General. At Wednesday’s event, Patricia Guernsey, vice-chair of the BGH Foundation board, told the more than 100 people assembled it was their support that helps make care better in the Quinte area, noting Ontario hospitals do not receive funding to purchase equipment or perform physical renovations to hospitals. “We could not do this without you,” said Guernsey. “Equipment has been purchased, diagnoses has been made, treatment delivered, suffering has been alleviated and lives have been saved all because of you. “Doctors and nurses have chosen to locate here in part because of the equipment that we have, and that we can provide the best care possible.”

Metroland general manager Gavin Beer, foreground, prepares to mount a plaque recognizing Metroland Media as a Founder donor to the Belleville General Hospital Foundation. He’s joined by BGH Foundation executive director Drew Brown. Chris Malette/Metroland

Habitat group seeks more county help, describes expansion plans BY JACK EVANS

Belleville - “More homes for more families more often” is the new slogan for the Quinte area’s Habitat for Humanity group under the leadership of former automotive dealer Bob Clute. Acknowledging to Hastings County Council Thursday that the county had already given a hefty loan of $250,000 over five years under its social housing program, he said his agency will need even more to meet its goal. He introduced Anita Ramji, a single mother with two children and a recent beneficiary of the Habitat program, to illustrate the value.

“It was a life-changing experience for me,” she said. “It had been an impossible dream to even think of a home of my own, but now it has come true. I get my children off to school and I’m home for them to preparer a good supper and help with homework.” Clute related how the program had been building one or two houses a year. But his goal was to increase that sharply, so the past two years have seen four to five houses built. But with increased costs of construction and therefore mortgage payments, more funds are need and he asked the county to help. His request will be studied later in committee meetings.

BY JACK EVANS

Tyendinaga Reeve Rick Philllips has seemed like a fixture after having served as warden of Hastings County for the past four- and-half years. That is a record for a county that for many years refused to allow wardens to sit for more than one term. But for the annual nominations for warden at Thursday’s meeting of county council, only one name was put forth - Mayor Rodney Cooney of Stirling-Rawdon. Formal confirmation of the new position will take place at the November meeting of council with induction early in December. “I think it would be selfish of me to take on another term,” said Phillips. “I felt it was time to give someone else a chance. It has been a great experience, but I’ll still be on council and looking forward to taking it a bit easier.” Phillips was named warden when he took over mid-term for a warden who had to resign for health reasons, then stayed on for three more terms with solid support from his fellow county council members.

TRAVEL

Exploring Sedona’s incredible Red Rock Country

TICO#50007364

Arizona seems to be attracting a lot of Canadian snowbirds, particularly from western Canada, so I decided to check it out. After all, it’s the Grand Canyon state, and that in itself is a pretty strong tourist magnet. However, after my trip, I’ve decided that any visit to this picturesque state should also include a visit to Sedona’s Red Rock Country. It’s, indeed, particularly special! If you’re driving south from the Grand Canyon, the states #1 tourist attraction, you’ll drive on route #89A, through the spectacular Oak Creek Canyon, to get to Sedona. You’ll encounter some steep switchbacks as you descend into this narrow, colourful gorge, passing through a thick pine forest, and you’ll eventually arrive at Sedona itself, the state’s second most popular tourist area. Sedona is so very popular because of its awesome red rocks, with their many unusual and striking formations, and because of the great variety of ways that are offered to the tourist for exploring this spectacular area. For example, upon arrival, the first thing that I’d do is take a trolley ride through town, for I found that this was a great way to ‘get my bearings’ and to decide what were some of the areas that I just had to check out for myself in more depth. I’d also be quick to book an off-road jeep or Hummer tour of this Red Rock Country, for these seem to be the most popular ways to explore the Sedona area. It’s also possible to go hiking, cycling, horseback riding, hot air ballooning, or even flightseeing. Furthermore, you can decide to explore this area by train, bus, or Segway, and there are vortex tours, wine tours, and/or astronomy tours. Yes, there are many ways to get around and explore – and the great variety of restaurants and accommodations offer the tourist plenty of options, too. For example,

for dining, I’d check out such places as the Mariposa Latin Inspired Grill (try its fish sandwich special for lunch), Golden Goose American Grill (try its chicken tortellini), and/ or Sound Bites Grill (this modern day supper club is located at the Hyatt, and I enjoyed a fantastic lobster dish here). For accommodations, I stayed at two different properties, and both were great: the Sedona Rouge Hotel & Spa (on the west side), with its very own red rock viewing and stargazing terrace and the Best Western Plus Arroyo Roble (the tallest building in uptown, and it also offers wonderful, unobstructed views). Some of the not-to-be missed attractions include such enthralling rock structures as Courthouse Butte, Cathedral Rock, Chimney Rock, Madonna and Child, Two Nuns, Coffeepot Rock, Castle Rock, and Bell Rock. One of the most famous man-made structures is the Chapel of the Holy Cross. It’s a Roman Catholic chapel that’s built right into Sedona’s rocks, so I, of course, had to tour this fascinating building (it’s open to the public), and I could view many of those aforementioned rock structures from this very site. I could also see an awesome mansion just below this hill, and I was told that it was seldom used but was valued at more than $20 million (there’s apparently even a waterfall built inside this house!). Indeed, Sedona’s popularity had led to some interesting buildings and some expensive real estate! The Sedona area also offers two awesome state parks, and I’d recommend a visit to them both. The Red Rock State Park features a red sandstone canyon and some fascinating hiking trails. Its naturalistled “Full Moon Hike” is particularly popular, and you can witness a sunset and moonrise from an enticing overlook while on this two-hour hike. The other state park, Slide Rock State Park, takes its name from a natural water slide that has been formed by

I discovered that in a cliff by the ancient farmers). I there certainly was much to see and do bask in the sun along Oak Creek. The Sedona area also offers the then headed northwest on #260 to here! For More Information: www. visitor many wonderful scenic drives, Cottonwood and soon arrived at and I’d particularly recommend its nearby Tuzigoot (where I toured visitsedona.com (John Smith was hosted by Sedona National Monument Loop in the what’s left of a Sinagua village that Verde Valley. This one-day adventure was built here between 1000 and Tourism) I then trek took me south on #179 and #17 1400). to exit 293 for the Montezuma Well headed back to National Monument (a gigantic pond Sedona on #89A, of water that collects over a million completing this gallons of new water every day and fascinating loop.

Gardening - I CAN Do This!

Dan Clost This past week I strolled across a beautifully landscaped estate with a friend to talk about preparing gardens for the winter. She had never done this before and was concerned about being able to do it properly. By the of our little tour, she said, “I can do

this.” Of course she can. If you are a new gardener who finds themself responsible for an established landscape, arranging to walk the grounds with a seasoned gardener is a good idea. l Not only will they identify the plants but they will give you east to remember advice for their care. Gardening is not especially difficult, Gentle Reader, especially if you do a bit of planning before you do a bit of planting. I will assume that the basic design idea has been fleshed out so we’re going to talk about the plants. There are so many choices when it comes to plants that it can be overwhelming. At the nursery where I am employed, the Plant Reference Guide lists more than 3,200 choices. Other nurseries and garden centres in this area also have their own impressive inventories. How do you know what is best for your home?

A good way to start is to drive to an established neighbourhood in your area, park the car and go for a walk. You should be able to determine the age of the houses within a 5 year time frame which also means you can figure out how old the plants are. What do you see that appeals to you? Make notes. If you can’t identify it, ask the homeowners; you might be surprised at how pleased they are by your questions. Next, drive to a subdivision less than 5 years old and look for those same plants. If you find them, you might be dismayed at how small they are: refer to the notes of your first visit and remind yourself how big these chappies will become. By doing this, for example, you’ll only buy one shrub instead of three to fit into a space. You can also take a look at where “tender” plants thrive. Where do you see large, lush

Japanese Maples? Seldom will they be in the middle of an exposed lawn. How many mature tri-coloured beeches do you see? Divide your plant-spending money into two piles. Label one pile as discretionary; the other as disposable. The money in the latter can be used for a tricoloured beech. For sure, GR, I will receive many e-mails telling me that the sender has a beauty of a tri on their property; but, considering the numbers sold to the numbers that reach maturity, the disposable label remains. With this starting list of possible plants, hie thee to a nursery. We (and I gladly speak for the entire horticultural industry here) want you to be successful and happy with any plant or gardening product we sell you. Wen want to sell you more; we want to sell to your friends, to your children, to their children, the only way to do

that is to establish a relationship based on trust. I hope the new “kids” on the block are reading this. GR, the Millenials (aka “Millies”) are causing quite the kerfuffle amongst our marketing boffins. Seldom have I seen so much conflicting advice about attracting this group. Millies are diligent with research and it will be web-based with facts being checked against several sources. Then, similar attention will be focused on nurseries. One of the first items searched will be reviews- on the seller’s website, on Facebook and on any site referencing that particular nursery, - including local newspapers. Finally, they will go to a nursery and that is where the relationship begins. Gardening is easy and you CAN do it!
