Roseneath Fair Students “keep the shines bright dream alive” in the annual Terry Fox Run and brilliant

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - “Student, you are one of 3.5 million kids that are completing the run this year in Terry Fox’s memory. You are helping to keep his dream alive.”

That’s what Pam Donnan, a teacher at Campbellford District High School, told the hundreds of students from local schools while they waited for the horn to blow to signify the start of the annual Terry Fox School Run. Moments before Caitlin Penney and Casey Maracle, both Grade 11 students, had been busy chalking the start/finish line in preparation for the event.

“I’m standing at the finish line and counting how many people cross over and handing out freezies and stuff,” said Casey with a grin.

“This is great; there’s a lot of money going to be raised for Terry’s Foundation,” Caitlin added.

Standing nearby Machaila Dunham, a Grade 9 student and Jasmine Beamish, who is in Grade 12, were already in the Austin Sztajdocher, of Grafton, gives it all he has in the 3,000-pound truck pull at the Tough As Nails strongman tour stop for appreciative crowds at the first row of runners.

146th Roseneath Fall Fair. The strongman competition features five different events including the pull which gave athletes 90 seconds to pull the truck “The Terry Fox Run is really good. I 75 feet.

love it because it’s a great cause and everybody gets a chance to run for people that they’ve lost in their lives or people that are really important to them or that are sick,” said Jasmine.

Excitement grew as the students gathered in front of the high school with CDHS at the front of the group following by students from Hillcrest Public School, St. Mary Elementary School and Kent Public School. Teachers and staff joined them.

Donnan said some final words of encouragement before the run began.

“Terry Fox ran a marathon every day for 143 days. You guys are walking five kilometres; you can do this!” she shouted, followed by a surprise announcement.

“And students, if you are from Kent school, I received an email from your school this morning that you are walking for a grand total of $900 and this is your 30th year of participation,” she said as cheers and applause followed.

As well, she noted, staff at CDHS raised and “exceeded the challenge” Please see “Terry” on page 6

tural element within the community” that had been created by Christopher Wallis, “a prominent stained glass artist whose work is featured [throughout] Canada.” He created 12 of the church’s stained glass windows and restored the one above the choir loft that had originally been installed in 1950 by the Luxifer Prism Company.

According to the statement of cultural heritage value prepared for council, 11 of the windows Wallis designed depict “various key stories from the Bible about the life of Jesus Christ” as well as contain symbols of the United Church of Canada and United Church Women.

The windows are “a key historic and architectural feature of the church” created by a renowned artist whose work “appears in many public buildings from Victoria to Ottawa,” such as the Rideau Hall, RMC Sandhurst, Osgood Hall and Government House in Victoria. He was awarded the Commemorative Medal at the time of Canada’s 125th anniversary for his significant contribution to Canada.

“The detail from one of his windows showing the Madonna and Child was chosen by Canada Post in 1997 to be featured as an international Christmas stamp.”

The statement, which draws upon information provided in A History of St. John’s United Church, Campbellford, published in 2008 and edited by Ann Rowe, notes the windows “make use of English and European handmade antique glass.

Colours are unique to each vignette yet are repeated in the window in the opposite side.”

OPINION

Criminal incompetence

Imperfect Afghanistan

Editorial - “We have to recognise that Afghanistan will not be a perfect place, and it’s not America’s responsibility to make it one,” said President Barack Obama last May. No, it isn’t, and Afghanistan is a strikingly imperfect society in almost every respect: politics, economy, security and human rights. But it isn’t entirely a cause, either.

Gwynne Dyer lostPresident Hamid Karzai, who was given the job of running Afghanistan after the United States invaded in 2001 and subsequently won two deeply suspect elections in 2004 and 2009, finally left office on Monday, although he didn’t move very far. (His newly built private home backs onto the presidential palace.) On the way out, he took one last opportunity to bite the hand that fed him for so long.

“The war in Afghanistan is to the benefit of foreigners,” he said. “Afghans on both sides are the sacrificial lambs and victims of this war.” The U.S. ambassador, James Cunningham, said that “his remarks, which were uncalled for, … dishonour the huge sacrifices Americans have made here,” but they were, of course, true.

Karzai’s remarks, though undiplomatic, are just common sense. The United States did not invade the country to bring democracy, prosperity and feminism to the long-suffering Afghan people. It did so because some of the senior planners of the 9/11 attacks had been allowed to set up camps there by members of the Taliban regime who shared their religious ideology.

You could argue (and I would) that luring the U.S. military into the quagmire of a long guerilla war in Afghanistan that would drive millions of Muslims into the arms of al-Qaeda was precisely what Osama bin Laden was hoping to achieve with the 9/11 attacks.

The United States simply fell into the strategic trap that he laid.

Even so, and despite all the rapidly changing reasons for “staying the course” in Afghanistan that Washington deployed in later years, the original and abiding motive in Washington was the perception, accurate or not, that who rules Afghanistan is a matter of great importance for the national security of the United States.

Over 1,400 American soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan (together with 400 British soldiers, 150 Canadians, and sundry others), and they all basically died for a particular U.S. official vision of how American security might be best assured. How else could the 13-year U.S. military commitment in Afghanistan possibly be justified to the American people?

As to whether the long occupation was also in Afghanistan’s interest, that depends very much on

Trent Hills Independent P.O. Box 25009, Belleville, ON K8P 5E0 250 Sidney Street Phone: 613-966-2034 Fax: 613-966-8747 Published weekly by:

the stability and success of the two-headed potential monster of a government that is now being created in Kabul.

Karzai has handed over the reins of power to two very different men, after five months of bitter disagreement over which one of them had really won last April’s presidential election. It was not as blatantly rigged as either of the two elections that maintained Karzai in the presidency, but it was still pretty dodgy.

In the first round of voting, when there were eleven candidates, the leader was Abdullah Abdullah, with 45 per cent of the vote, and the runner-up was Ashraf Ghani, with only 31 per cent. In the second round, Abdullah Abdullah’s vote actually dropped two points to 43 per cent, while Ashraf Ghani’s almost doubled to 56 per cent. The age of miracles truly is not past.

Even more suspiciously, the number of people voting in some of the districts that supported Ashraf Ghani tripled between the first and second rounds of voting. So Abdullah Abdullah cried foul, and the inauguration of a new president was endlessly postponed while the ballots cast were “audited” by an electoral commission that had been chosen by Hamid Karzai.

There was never going to be a clear answer to the question of who really won the election, and so after months of drift and delay a deal was struck. Ashraf Ghani, a former senior official at the World Bank, will be president. Abdullah Abdullah, a former resistance fighter during the Soviet occupation in the 1980s and later foreign minister under Karzai, will nominate a “chief executive officer” who will act more or less as prime minister.

It is, in other words, a traditional Afghan carveup, with a proportional slice of power for every one of the country’s ethnic groups. Ghani will ensure that Pashtuns get the biggest share of the good jobs, and look after the Uzbeks as well. Abdullah will take care of the Tajiks and Hazaras. But compared to your average Afghan warlord or Taliban fanatic, both men look pretty good.

Indeed, Afghanistan’s government and nascent democratic system might actually survive and prove to be fit for purpose.

After three decades of Russian and American occupation, a significant minority of Afghans (certainly several millions) have been exposed to many examples of how post-tribal societies run their affairs.

Afghanistan is still a tribal society, so this carve-up of power on an ethnic basis may be a better option for the country than winner-takes-all politics. And if the United States and its allies do not abruptly cut off the foreign aid that keeps the whole show on the road, post-occupation Afghanistan may at least avoid a rerun of the disastrous civil war that followed the Soviet withdrawal and the sudden ending of Soviet subsidies in 1992.

Editorial - Even a scorecard or program won’t help sort out the mess the Middle East has become. A month and a half ago, U.S. president Barak Obama admitted he didn’t have any idea how to deal with ISIS, ISIL, IS or whatever the current nom de guerre of these savage Islamists might be.

Many pundits believe he still doesn’t. But now at least, he’s assembled a coalition of the willing to deal with ISIS, a coalition that seems to be quite unwilling to do any of the actual heavy lifting.

ISIS and its predecessors have been around for quite a while now, lurking a little off the radar in the wide assortment of rebels attempting to overthrow the Syrian government of Bashar al-Assad.

In Assad, we have yet another despicable Middle Eastern strongman trying to govern a country artificially put together by the French and British when divvying up the remnants of the Ottoman Empire.

Because the Assad government is Alewite (Shiite) and most of the population is Sunni, the Saudis and other Sunni gulf monarchies want him gone because he’s allied with Iran (Shiite) and Iraq (with a Shiite majority). Thanks to George W. Bush’s debacle in Iraq, Sunnis and Shiites now seem to get along as well as Catholics and Protestants did a few centuries ago. Simmering hatred has reached a boil.

The U.S. and its allies like the Saudis, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Jordan, etc. funded the so-called moderate rebels to overthrow Assad, but it actually turned out there were no moderate rebels, “moderate rebels” being somewhat of an oxymoron.

Just ask warmonger-in-chief John McCain who now has some major back-pedalling to do after being photographed last year with his favourite moderate rebels, the Northern Storm Brigade.

These are the very same moderates who sold U.S. journalist Steven Sotloff to ISIS to be beheaded on video.

This series of decapitations forced Obama to beat the bushes for his coalition so the U.S. wouldn’t be seen as acting unilaterally once again. The goal of ISIS, a group too far out there even for Al Qaeda, is to form a caliphate in Syria and Iraq. So how did the U.S. originally respond to the advance of ISIS? They didn’t until ISIS started making trouble for the Iraqi Kurds who are allies of both the U.S. and Israel and in possession of most of Iraq’s oil. When the Iraqi army came up against ISIS, they dropped their U.S. supplied weapons and ran. Not quite the fighting force the U.S. had hoped it was training.

So now we have a bombing campaign supported by allies like the Saudis, who as well as funding ISIS have beheaded over 110 people in the last 18 months for crimes such as blasphemy and witchcraft, and by other gulf monarchies whose human rights records come close to rivalling the

crazies of ISIS. Fund the rebels, then fight the rebels you funded. Throw NATO member Turkey into the mix of countries that transferred arms to the rebels and you have most of the cast of characters now involved but not committed to a ground war.

So how is a bombing campaign going to stop ISIS? Well, it’s not without boots on the ground as well. The FBI says the bombing campaign is actually bringing new recruits to ISIS. Obama says there will be no American soldiers on Iraqi soil but we all know there already are.

And like Vietnam, these “advisors” are doing much more than advising and are imbedded with Iraqi units. More are on their way and you can be sure mercenaries are involved just like they were in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Pentagon is calling for ground troops to back up airstrikes but because this is mid-term election season in the U.S., we might have to wait a couple of months for that to happen.

Considering the fighting is taking place in Iraq and Syria, the logical choice, if you really wanted to obliterate ISIS, would be to co-ordinate your forces with the Syrians and neighbouring Iranians.

But the Americans won’t because that would make too much sense. Given their lack of success over the past dozen years in every country they’ve invaded, one might think a change of course would be in order but they aren’t done flogging this dead horse just yet. Can anyone believe Obama is still planning to train moderate rebels in Saudi Arabia to the tune of half a billion dollars to overthrow Assad?

At this moment, the only regular army having success fighting ISIS is the Syrian army along with Kurdish and Shiite militias. And now that the U.S. has started bombing ISIS in Syria without Syria’s permission, the Americans will be hard-pressed to find any other nation to join them in that country considering the legalities involved. Interfering in another country’s affairs usually brings sanctions.

So what we really have now is the U.S. bombing their own tanks, weapons and humvees in Iraq and Syria, a few units of the Iraqi army fighting with a few Americans, some Canadian advisors helping out and the Iraqi Kurds and Assad’s army doing most of the heavy lifting. Our own government is one of the few making sense by pulling the passports of Canadians known to be fighting with ISIS so they can’t return home.

Considering all the Arab nations in cahoots with the U.S. are reluctant to put their own forces in harm’s way, why are the Americans, Canadians, French or British even thinking about expanding their forces in the region? And most important, why aren’t the Saudis being called to task for being one of the world’s most blatant human rights violators and funders of terrorism. That would be a good place to start if you wanted to end terrorism in the Middle East.

Digital high school sign an “eyesore,” resident says allowance making the installation of the sign possible. The high school had originally hoped to install the sign directly across from the school’s front entrance but that site was rejected by Peterborough Utility Services.

The new location is south of the school on green space adjacent to a fence that separates fair board property from the township’s road allowance.

The lease allowed the school to get purchasing support from the KPR; the school board had said it would not purchase anything that was not going to be on their land.

Gauthier was upset that the relocation deviates from the original agreement.

“We are fully willing to take legal action if necessary,” she said.

“It is an eyesore. It’s directly across from our driveway of the century home we’re restoring and a digital sign doesn’t mesh with it.”

Gauthier says she and her husband Wayne “tried to mitigate” the situation before the sign went up, contacting the township but got no satisfaction.

Township CAO Joe van Koeverden says the sign was relocated because the utility company was “concerned with wires going across that area.

613-966-2034 “There wasn’t space between or 613-475-0255

the wires and the sign at that [the original] location,” van Koeverden told council.

The municipality discussed the matter with the school and opted for the re-location to alleviate the concerns about electrical wires.

Councillor Roy Millett said the school should have returned to council to request the relocation, following the same process it did when they first discussed the sign. “To me that would make sense,” Millett said.

“Can’t we let the sign be up to see what the impact is or you just don’t want it there?” asked Mayor Doug Pearcy.

Pearcy said he discussed the sign with Gauthier’s husband and thought they agreed to let the sign be “lit and see where we’re at because it’s really hard to tell when it’s not [illuminated].”

Deputy-mayor Joe Crowley said without a written record of concerns about the relocation it boils down to “I said, you said, we said and I forgot.”

“I’m not supporting anybody or anything on this issue because I wasn’t in favour of putting it on there in the first place.”

After nearly three years of planning and fund raising, NDHS has installed its new digital events sign.

News - Norwood - Norwood District High School’s new digital events sign is an “eyesore” and “looks like crap,” says Shelley Gauthier who lives across the street from the recently installed electronic sign which has yet to be turned on. Gauthier spoke to council about the sign protesting a change in location that moves the sign closer to her family’s home on the corner of Elm and King Streets.

“It’s an eyesore. It looks like crap, there’s no other way to put it,” Gauthier said. “If we had known it was going to be put there we definitely would have done something about it.”

Apart from esthetics, Gauthier’s chief concern is that the sign was moved closer to King Street from its original planned location.

An agreement between Asphodel-Norwood and the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board signed last September allowed the KPR to lease a portion of the municipality’s Elm Street road

It wouldn’t happen elsewhere Dear Editor, Regarding your publication of an article written by Bill Freeman on September 25, 2014, titled Pride flag unfurled in The Friendly Town.

I take great issue with what happened the morning of Friday, September 19, 2014.

Not with what the mayor and council of Asphodel-Norwood did but how they did it.

Our Canadian Flag was lowered from the municipal flagpole and replaced with the Rainbow Pride flag.

How dare you?

I have no problem with the township supporting any

approved organization (Gay Pride, Norwood Fair, Four H, Red Cross, Scouts, Hospitals, Canadian Legion, Breast Cancer, Lions, etc. etc.) but not at the expense of our Canadian Maple Leaf. If the mayor and council wish to support other organizations or lifestyles I suggest they put up another flagpole.

We recently lost 158 brave young lives in Afghanistan.

All were proudly wearing the Canadian Flag on their uniforms.

What a disservice this was to them.

Coincidently, I had a gay friend visiting from Ireland. I

asked him, “What would happen in Dublin if they replaced the tri colours of Ireland with the Pride Flag?”

He replied, “After what we went through to get our flag, it just wouldn’t happen.”

Imagine the reaction in “Friendly Town, U.S.A.” if Old Glory was removed from any government building and replaced with another flag.

I find it very troubling that the Asphodel-Norwood mayor and council would choose gay pride over national pride.

With respect: Lou Hagerman, Havelock

Full house for electioneering in Hastings

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - The multi-use Hastings Field House and downtown revitalization were hot topics during the latest round of campaign jousting that brought Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan and mayoral hopefuls Jim Peeling and Dwight Boyd as well as acclaimed Deputy-mayor Bob Crate to the Hastings Civic Centre.

The campaigners touched on many of the same themes that filled an earlier meeting but with a more temperate focus.

Mayor Macmillan disagreed with a questioner who suggested that “very little” had been done to attract economic development to Hastings or to revitalize downtown since amalgamation.

“I think there’s a lot of economic development going on in Hastings,” he said. “There’s been quite a bit starting with the marina and the field house.”

The Trent Hills Community Improvement Program has also been responsible for enhancements to several downtown buildings, he added.

Macmillan also noted the $50,000 budgeted annually

for Hastings downtown and waterfront improvements noting that all four corners at the stoplights will be rehabilitated with the Hastings Village Market site already undergoing a makeover.

“We’ve been working hard on the tannery property and that’s about to be resolved,” he said.

The municipality, he said, also replaced every watermain on the north side of the river, which means there’s capacity for new buildings.

There’s a “totally revamped water plant” and new wastewater treatment facility “so we can attract new businesses and industry to the system which we couldn’t before.”

Subdivision development is a growth business in the village, Macmillan added.

“Hastings was cash-strapped before amalgamation. There was nothing going on. A lot’s going on here now and it’s exciting.”

Retired custom boat manufacturer Boyd applauded the $50,000 a year boost for downtown revitalization calling it an “excellent program” but says not enough is being done to promote

Hastings as a destination to visit or settle in.

“Economic development in Hastings is never going to be an easy task,” Boyd said. “To encourage new business you need to bring in new patrons and that means promoting tourism.”

“We have to decide what Hastings has and its features to attract tourists.”

The Ultimate Fishing Town championship was a “real boon” and ongoing professional bass tourneys are welcome but they need to be promoted more, he said.

“New houses are wonderful but there also has to be outside influences coming in and that boils down to tourism.”

Peeling also emphasized promotion calling Trent Hills the “jewel on Ontario that nobody knows about.

“We have to let them know we are here,” the retired construction project co-ordinator said.

“We need revitalization but we need a plan and we need to stick to our guns.”

The price escalation of the Hastings Fieldhouse was a hot button issue with Boyd decry-

ing the “tremendous disparity” between the consultant’s original plan estimate and tender results which forced council to scale back some of the project to bring the total cost down to $4.8 million.

“I’m in favour of the project,” said Boyd, “but I would like to have a look at the costs and why the overruns were so high. There was obviously a problem.”

Peeling said it should have been “left alone” for the new

council. “Our hands are tied now. You spend the money you have and nothing more.”

Mayor Macmillan said there was “no robbing Peter to pay Paul.”

“This is already part of the five-year plan; it’s not going to cost any more money. It’s coming out of a fund that’s already been established,” he said.

The price was higher because “Hastings dreamed.”

The original estimate came

Six worst manhole lids on County Road 40 will be fixed News - Norwood - The six worst “maintenance hole lids” on County Road 40 in Norwood will be repaired this fall before they become even more problematic.

The municipality will use funding it received from an Ontario Small Waterworks Assistance Program (OSWAP) grant to cover the cost of the repairs which are pegged at $32,688.

The project qualifies for OSWAP funding because it covers sanitary sewer rehabilitation, says public works manager Jeff Waldon.

Waldon said council had discussed using the funds earlier in the year to address the problem.

Information gathered on similar projects in other municipalities indicated that the cost could reach as high as $7,000 per lid.

There was “significant interest” from contractors in the County Road 40 project, Waldon said, but only one bid came in for the actual tender.

That bid was from Drain Brothers Excavating Limited and averages out to $5,000 per lid.

“All these rims will be re-

Run for deputy-mayor’s seat a “natural progression,” says Jim Martin

By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - After three terms as a councillor, Jim Martin wants to be Havelock-BelmontMethuen’s next deputy-mayor.

“It’s a natural progression to move up. I’ve done three terms and I thought it was time to move to the next level,” Martin, a longtime Kasshabog Lake cottager and current councillor-at-large, said of his challenge to current Deputymayor Andy Sharpe. “It’s time to move up.”

Martin, a local landscape company owner and father of two daughters, says he’s ready to become HBM’s representative on County Council which is responsible for around one-third of local taxes.

“I think there are efficiencies there. We are trying to partner with municipalities and the county on different projects [but] I think we can do better there,” Martin said.

As a councillor-at-large, Martin

says he’s had the opportunity to work closely with a broad range of interests across the township and would be happy if people think of him as the “voice of the people.

“It’s a complex municipality because we have so many things.

You need someone who can balance everything out. We [council] don’t just work for one group but for the whole municipality. Even though we have the ward system everybody votes on all the issues.

It’s pretty much the same kind of election; you’re running for the whole municipality.”

Martin wants to continue moving aggressively on the long-termcare project but says they can’t let that blur the focus on other important sectors of the township like waterfront, youth, seniors, town and rural.

“We have a lot of needs at all levels and I think there’s a balance there that has to be found.”

Martin says people have talked

to him about recreational initiatives in nearby municipalities and would like to see council support, through encouragement, community groups that might want to rally around a project.

“It’s not necessarily something that council funds” but it can help bring groups together, he says.

Martin says he’s “big on strategic planning” and right from the start of a new council would like input from fellow councillors and ratepayers about how to approach long-term planning and goal setting.

“Maybe we need to break it up.

You can never get too much information.”

Periodic “coffee breaks” in different parts of the township to give residents a chance to talk casually with councillors is an idea Martin thinks might be welcomed.

“Municipal council is the closest to the people,” he notes.

Martin “takes pride” in the fact

that he gets out and talks to people across the large and diverse municipality.

“It’s kind of like keeping your ear to the ground,” he says. “Communication is a big thing for me, letting people know what we’re doing.”

Martin has been the president of both the local snowmobile club and figure skating club, which he’s still involved with, vice chair of the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority’s finance committee and represents the township on the elementary school’s parent council.

“I always want to be the voice of the people. If someone approaches me with an issue that should be dealt with by council I take it to council. If I think I can help someone I will; if I can lead them down the right path I will do that.

“I don’t like to see a council Jim Martin, current councillor-at-large on Havelock-Belmont-Methuen that’s reactive but a council that council, is running for the position of deputy-mayor in the upcoming municipal election. really thinks things out.”

Resident lauded for launching nursing home petition drive News - Havelock - Betty Thwaites is the kind of citizen that makes communities stronger and her petition campaign in favour of a long-term-care facility in Havelock-Belmont-Methuen has earned the undivided praise of council.

“It’s a true sign of community spirit,” said Councillor Larry Ellis after an appearance by Thwaites at council to talk a little bit about the petition which has appeared in locations across HBM and in neighbouring municipalities.

Council has agreed to allow the petition in the municipal office’s reception area, something that has rarely, if ever, been done before.

Thwaites hopes a petition filled

with supportive signatures will add more heft to the township’s application for long-term-care bed allocations that would usher in a 128-bed facility south of the village.

“The more [signatures] we get the more help you get and you have done such a good job and you need a bit more help and that’s what I’m trying to do so that we show that the people want this,” she said.

“This is very timely that the community is bringing forth a petition of names supportive of what the community both needs and wants,” Mayor Ron Gerow said.

Mayor Gerow thanked Thwaites “on behalf of the community.”

“All of the information that we can forward on to the Ministry of Health

and Long-Term Care and the Central East LHIN [Local Health Integration Network] will certainly be a great help,” he said.

“We are entering a very critical time and stage in the project,” Gerow added, referring to a pending meeting with the Central East LHIN and the LHIN’s own meeting with the Ministry of Health.

“Staff has been working diligently over the past weeks with the Ministry and LHIN,” he said.

cility that would be privately built and operated on land that has been zoned and serviced for that purpose. Other “integrated community opportunities” could also follow on that same property.

“It takes people like you to start petitions,” said Councillor Barry Pomeroy. “That’s what we like, somebody who gets involved.”

“It’s been a hard job here,” Pomeroy said of the municipality’s campaign and the frustrations it’s faced.

“We seem to get this close to the top and something happens and we have to start all over.”

“We’ve proven the needs. We just have to get them on side for beds,” he said

Deputy-mayor Andy Sharpe noted that petitions are not something that would normally be placed at the municipal office.

“But this is a community project that our township and our council supports,” Sharpe said.

With the amount of public traffic at the municipal office, Sharpe says it would be an appropriate spot for a petition.

Any help they can get to move the proposal forward is welcome, said Councillor Jim Martin.

Mayoral hopefuls to meet next Thursday

News - Stirling - Rotary organizers of the upcoming all-candidates meeting announced minor changes last week that will see council contenders sharing the floor Wednesday night, October 8, while mayoral candidates will face off on Thursday, October 9.

The two meetings, to be held on back-to-back nights next week at the Lions Hall beginning at 6:30 p.m., will provide participants with time to make an opening remark as well as respond to questions submitted to the moderator or emailed to <srdebatenite@

gmail.com> prior to the meetings.

The three Stirling-Rawdon mayoral candidates, Rodney Cooney, Brian Foley and Steven Spencer, will share the floor with school board trustee hopefuls Christopher Dopking and Bonnie Danes on Thursday while all nine council contenders are scheduled to speak on the preceding day.

Rotary organizers say the two meetings should offer ample opportunity for candidates to explain their positions as well as allow questions Please see “Mayoral” on page 11

“We need to create new focus for township” says Andy Sharpe News - Havelock - Andy Sharpe says there’s much more he’d like to do as deputy-mayor of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and that’s why he’s running for a third term in that seat October 27.

“I enjoy it,” Sharpe, a self-employed cabinet maker and father of two, says of his 14 years on municipal council. “You live and breathe it; once you get into it you see that you are helping people and that’s pretty important.”

With the blessing of his family, Sharpe’s taking a shot at a third opportunity to represent the municipality on County Council in a race against fellow Councillor Jim Martin; he’s running on an ambitious 18-point platform that includes a heavy emphasis on economic development and keeping the lid on taxes.

“The township is in a real good financial position and I want to keep it that way,” Sharpe told the Trent Hills Independent.

“The township’s main focus has been the long-term-care facility and that needs to stay high on the priority list but the important things is that we need to create a new focus for our township. We need to re-brand our community to support small businesses again.

There are a lot of business buildings that are empty. There’s more to it than trying to attract businesses to those buildings, we need to build some community spirit to support and those small buildings.

“Without that support and spirit businesses won’t succeed. It’s a two-part thing. I’m really anxious to work on that, the building the community part.”

One thing council needs to do, he says, is provide “leadership to all of our groups and organizations.”

“They’re all struggling; they’re fund raising to pay utility bills that are ever-escalating. We need a new partnership with them; we need to bring them in and build that community support.”

Sharpe has enjoyed the challenge County Council has provided including his two terms as chair of the County-City Board of Health.

“In the last four years that’s where 90 per cent of my work has taken place,” he said. “The county is a great experience. You get to talk to people about how the different townships do things.”

Sharpe says he’s “pretty proud of some of the work” the health unit and its 125 staff were able

to do including delivering the Healthy Smiles Ontario dental program to eligible residents in the area.

“A real big focus for me was to have the health unit branch out more into the communities beyond Peterborough. I really pushed that.”

Being ready to tap into infrastructure grant programs is crucial, Sharpe adds.

“You have to be proactive to have shovel-ready projects in the queue when they come about. You also have to be proactive to be able to pay your portion. You’ve really got to plan that out.”

Sharpe points to the municipality’s asset management plan as a key resource identifying township needs and says he wants to make more progress on road improvements.

“I want to see change,” HBM candidate says

By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - Julie Zufelt says she wants to “see change” happen in Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and wants to be part of that change as a village ward councillor. The life-long township resident is running for the seat now held by Barry Pomeroy and she says the time is right in her life to give municipal politics a chance.

“I’ve been thinking about it the last few years and was encouraged a little more to do it and I decided I’d like to take a run at it,” Zufelt told The Trent Hills Independent.

Zufelt lives on a 135-acre farm on the edge of town with her husband Robert and three teenage daughters and is proud of the fact that she’s lived in all three parts of the township during her life, Havelock, Belmont and Methuen.

“I want to see change; I don’t think there’s been enough done; there should be more done,” she says. “Maybe I can spur them on to do more and get things moving in town; it just seems to be stagnant with not enough going on.”

Zufelt wants the municipality to continue working on the long-termcare facility project and would like to see “more for the kids in town because there’s nothing; there are lots of smaller towns that have way more than we do.”

Zufelt wants to see more focus on

“Look after your own business in-house but be ready for the grants. You don’t want to be dependent on grants but you want to be ready.”

Sharpe also wants to make sure waterfront residents are reached in his campaign and that their concerns about water quality and tax fairness are heard.

“We need new volunteers to take the initiative and get things going,” she says.

Zufelt was employed at Havelock Home Hardware for 18 years and was involved in the local Farmers’ Market for seven years; she has also been a volunteer with the township’s food bank for over seven years and is now its inventory co-ordinator. Her most recent venture has been with the Nourish Havelock Committee’s community garden.

“I kind of know the town a little more. I think it’s a good fit for me right now,” she says of the election bid.

Royal Bank helps fill food bank shelves with a donation ing the food bank. I know it’s going to a good cause,” Mechetuk said.

Lillian Adams, president of the food bank talked with the Trent Hills Independent providing an update on its ability to serve clients.

“There are new clients coming all the time … and new donors,” she noted and proceeded to tell a story of how a recent donation of 30 chickens came from the crew of a movie set for a reality series who had been filming in Meyersburg recently.

The Royal Bank in Campbellford donated $1,000 to the Campbellford Fair Share Food Bank last week, just in time for Thanksgiving weekend: from left, Gary Raine, vice president food bank board; Lillian Adams, food bank board president; Dianne Mechetuk, RBC Campbellford branch manager; Mario Guzman, investment retirement planner at the branch.

News - Campbellford - Giving back to the community and taking a bite out of the need for donations is something the Royal Bank (RBC) here does on a regular basis.

Last week Dianne Mechetuk, branch manager of RBC in Campbellford, again filled that mandate by presenting a cheque for $1,000 to the Campbellford Fair Share Food Bank.

She was accompanied by Mario Guzman, investment retirement planner at the branch.

“This actually is the result of what happened last year.

The food bank sent a request in

to RBC to see if we would provide any support,” Mechetuk explained.

“So right now the bank is very into supporting the community and food banks are very important in the community. It came back right away that it was approved,” she added.

And with Thanksgiving just around the corner the timing couldn’t be better.

“In the last fiscal year there were about 230 families we served,” said Gary Raine, vice president of the food bank board.

“Not sure of the figure for this year but I think it may be slightly higher,” he added.

“We see about thirty clients every week and that could be a single person or someone with five or even ten children,” he explained.

The RBC’s donations help the food bank serve those clients.

The bank has donated to the food bank before but it also donates where there are other needs in the community.

“We’ve done a few donations to the hospital,” commented Mechetuk.

There are a few different initiatives through the year that the bank carries out such as employee granting, for a value of $500, which goes hand in hand with an RBC employee volunteering 40 hours in the community.

As well the bank has a program in which ten employees can get together and do three hours of work each.

Through their Day of Service event, RBC Royal Bank assists with both volunteer time and a financial donation of $1,000 to a local agency that fits this program’s criteria.

The RBC Royal Bank employees in Campbellford volunteered their time to assist Community Care Northumberland and its clients under this program.

“Hopefully we can continue support-

The food bank is open Wednesdays from 9 a.m. until about noon each week.

Protection of farmland key to Northumberland adopting first Official Plan

By John Campbell

News - Northumberland County - Preserving prime agricultural land from industrial use was a key factor in Northumberland County adopting its first Official Plan.

County council went along with a recommendation by its consultant to remove 77 hectares of farmland he had originally proposed for designation as employment area and then it approved a last-minute amendment to remove an additional 32 hectares of farmland against his advice.

“I like it,” said Paul Burnham, a Cobourg-area farmer whose 77 hectares had initially been identified for re-designation in the draft official plan developed by consultant Nick McDonald of Meridian Planning.

McDonald told council he revised his recommendation after hearing from the public and reassessing what he had submitted originally.

However, he held firm with his proposal that 145 hectares of farmland in Port Hope be designated for industrial purposes but county council chose to remove 32 hectares at the insistence of Hamilton Township Mayor Mark Lovshin.

Their owner, Jim Waddell, “is adamantly against having his land changed,” he said.

“I don’t see us tying that land up,” when another option in the Cobourg area had emerged for more than 100 hectares to be designated a major employment area.

Lovshin’s amendment was seconded by Cobourg Mayor Gil Brocanier, who, quoting a colleague, said: “I’d sooner be working with a willing partner VETERINARY SERVICE than an angry farmer.”

SMALL ANIMAL CARE Trent Hills Mayor Hector Dr. Lex Luttikhuis Dr. Michelle Chiunti Macmillan supported leavDr. Jessica Gonzalez Dr. Andrea Wernham ing the 32 hectares as they are now, because there is “not a Dr. Izzy Hirji

They were filming for I Wrecked My House, an HGTV series.

“The chickens were part of the set and were only out of the freezer for ten or fifteen minutes,” said Adams. They donated them after the filming was completed.

An attempt was made to talk to those at HGTV responsible but there has been no response as yet.

In the meantime other local fund-raising initiatives continue to happen such as the food drive at Thanksgiving by Sharpe’s Food Market.

prime agricultural land like this to be already employment lands, it’s a mistake,” as well as “ridiculous,” he said. “As long as it’s his land and he wants to do what he wants with it, then he should have that privilege.”

Macmillan said “the odds are pretty slim” the 113 acres that will be earmarked for industrial use in the Official Plan will be filled up by the time the plan comes up for review in five years, but if there’s a need for more to be designated at that time, it can be addressed then.

The primary purpose of the official plan, which must still be approved by the province, is to set a framework for managing growth and change within the county. It sets the stage for long-term economic development.

Waddell was delighted when told what the county had done: “Well, that’s wonderful. It is good news.”

Waddell, 82, retired from beef farming two years ago but continues to grow hay on his farm on Telephone Road beside the service centre on County Road 28 and he rents out land for the growing of crops—soybeans in 2013, corn this year.

“There isn’t any better [farmland] in the county,” he said.

“Somewhere down the road we’re going to be short of agricultural land ... We’re taking all our good prime agricultural land and putting it under concrete.”

Land is needed for industrial growth “but you shouldn’t be taking prime agricultural,” he said.

Burnham agrees (as does the Northumberland Federation of Agriculture).

“I have a strong belief that agricultural land should remain in agriculture for the future of everyone because once we pave over all agricultural land we’re stuck for food, we’re going to be relying on foreign countries,” he said. “A lot of people have issues with how food is growing elsewhere.”

Burnham said “the mindset that you just keep expanding from where you are and it doesn’t matter what’s on the line … [is] shortsighted.”

Winterizing 101:

How to prepare your yard for winter Changing seasons can be tough on a lawn. Always exposed to the elements, lawns can fare especially poorly upon the arrival of winter, a season known for its harsh and unforgiving weather. Even the most perfectly manicured lawn can suffer at the hands of winter weather, causing homeowners to sit idly by and hope spring arrives that much sooner.

But as punishing as winter weather can be on a lawn, homeowners are not without recourse. Much like homeowners can take steps to help their lawns survive sizzling summer heat waves during the warmer months of the year, they also can take steps to help their lawns make it through the often stormy weather synonymous with winter.

• Don’t procrastinate. Putting off the process of winterizing a lawn

2014

improvement can put that lawn in jeopardy.

Lawns will turn dormant the closer you get to winter, and they may reject the nutrients found in fertilizer as a result. Those nutrients will prove valuable once spring weather returns, so start the winterization process in early fall so the lawn has sufficient time to absorb nutrients and strengthen itself for the seasons to come.

• Treat trouble spots. Summer can be even harder on a lawn than winter, especially for those lawns located in regions where heat waves and drought are common.

In such instances, certain spots on the lawn seem to be hit harder than others, and those spots should get special attention when winterizing the lawn. Check the soil’s pH levels before fertilizing or applying any treatments. Such a test will reveal which spots need

the most attention, and treating trouble spots now will make spring lawn care that much easier.

• Aerate the property. Aerating can help a lawn recover after a long summer and help it survive the potentially harsh months that lie ahead.

Aerating, which involves puncturing the soil or removing cores of soil from the ground, can restore a lawn to health by improving its drainage and allowing more water and air to reach the roots of the grass. Aerating also makes it easier for nutrients to penetrate the soil, which encourages a healthier lawn over the long haul. Aerators can be purchased or rented, but homeowners uncomfortable with the process may want to enlist a professional to tackle the job. Parents of small children who spend lots of time in the yard may need to aerate their lawn more than most, as heavy lawn traffic compresses the soil, a potentially harmful process that can be reversed via aeration.

News - Campbellford - Doctors working at Campbellford Memorial Hospital will be evaluated by other staff members, under a new policy that’s in the works.

Chief of staff Dr. Celeste Collins told hospital directors at their September meeting “it’s been quite the task” developing a “360 [degree] performance review” to evaluate physicians but having one in place “is a good thing on many levels.”

Collins said she, Dr. Robert Henderson, who shares chief of staff duties, and Dr. Bruce Bain, the head of emergency services, “will be figuring out” which nurses and paramedical staff will be involved in the evaluation.

CEO and president Brad Hilker will be asked for his input as well.

“It will be everybody’s viewpoint,” she said.

“Will this be a big change?” asked board member Gord Park.

“Yeah,” Collins replied with a laugh. “It was not so enthusiastically received the first time I mentioned it” to the physicians.

“It didn’t fly so well because everybody thought it would be a peer review [involving] physicians evaluating one another … and we said, no, no, no, that’s not the idea. The idea is to get input from everybody to learn [from the information gathered].

I like to think there might be an improvement so that you can prevent issues.”

Collins said in an interview “it’s a standard that physicians are reviewed today in hospitals.

Most of the hospitals I’m aware of are doing it. It’s a formal process.”

In “small facilities, more outof-the way facilities, it’s kind of a new thing … but I think it’s a very helpful process.”

Collins said CMH currently relies on information provided by physicians when they apply

HRISTMAS

for credentials to work in the hospital, whether to work in emergency services, for example, or provide specialist services. That includes any issues with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario and “outcomes that were unfavourable.

“While that is good, it’s helpful for the people who employ the physicians to know that they’re okay, they’re fitting in, they can do the job, it is not helpful to the individual physician, because they don’t know how they’re perceived by the other staff and by their colleagues,” although “they might have a general idea,” Collins said.

A formal evaluation is “more specific,” which will require some adjustment by all those involved “but I think as we get used to it, it’s going to be good, because you can improve in areas that you might not even know you have a blind spot, you have a soft area.” Continued on page 26

News - Kawartha Pine Ridge - Finding ways to â&#x20AC;&#x153;re-utilizeâ&#x20AC;? Norwood District High School (NDHS) is one of the things to which Shirley Patterson will be devoting her attention over the next four years should she be re-elected as public school board trustee.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been done the past two years, using videoconferencing to teach selected classes, mostly math, and share teaching resources between Norwood and Campbellford District High School, â&#x20AC;&#x153;has been very productive and successful so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping we can build on that,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gaining momentum with more programs. If we can twin with these two schools thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing to say we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t twin with others, within our own school board.â&#x20AC;?

Patterson said the Kawartha Pine Ridge

Do you have an opinion youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to share?

Write the editor tbush@metroland.com

By John Campbell

District School Board is â&#x20AC;&#x153;looking at possibly offering each year something different.â&#x20AC;?

NDHS has fewer than 400 students, CDHS slightly more than 500. Declining enrollment has elevated concerns over the years about their being earmarked for closure to cut down on the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operating costs.

She said the school board will need to be innovative in coming up with programs that will persuade young people to continue their learning locally rather than travel to Peterborough for courses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sign of the times throughout Ontarioâ&#x20AC;? for high schools to struggle with enrollment these days, she said. However, with â&#x20AC;&#x153;the explosionâ&#x20AC;? in numbers of children entering Kindergarten, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think in time youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see that pick up again.â&#x20AC;?

Patterson supports retroďŹ tting Norwood

and turning it into a trade school that serves students during the day and adults after-hours who want to update their skills or make a career change.

She said her â&#x20AC;&#x153;diligenceâ&#x20AC;? in representing the two high schools and six elementary schools in Asphodel-Norwood, Havelock-BelmontMethuen, and Trent Hills warrants her being returned for a second term on the school board. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m constantly trying to ďŹ nd ways that I can support each school individually,â&#x20AC;? she said. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;most satisfying partâ&#x20AC;? is working with the kids and â&#x20AC;&#x153;seeing your efforts begin to be productive is awesome.â&#x20AC;?

The mother of seven children got involved in their school activities and sports programs as a volunteer when they were growing up, and chaired several organizations along the way.

Terry Fox’s spirit lifts HPS run

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - It’s been 34 years since Terry Fox’s extraordinary Marathon of Hope, yet his spirit, vision and legacy are as inspirational today as they were in 1980 when the young British Columbia native took his first strides on the 143day, 5,373-kilometre journey that galvanized a nation.

Students and staff at Hastings Public School joined five local survivors in their own colourful tribute to Terry Fox Thursday morning, walking and running several loops around a neighbourhood

circuit to raise funds for the Terry Fox Foundation.

They set a modest goal of $500 but managed to raise over $620; the fund raising, in fact, was a small part of what they hoped to achieve with their high spirits and dedication.

“Terry’s important because he started a legacy that we’re following and it’s going to save a lot of lives of children and adults,” Grade 7 student Megan Edwards said. “He was a true hero for Canadians.

He was a really great Canadian.”

This year students formed their own Terry Fox Committee to organize the event and kept their fund raising lower because of the recently held Trent Hills Relay for Life.

“They understand Terry,” HPS teacher and cancer survivor Patt MacDowell said.

“They’re having a real good time with it and enjoy the experience of putting it together.

“It’s inspiring to see these kids working so hard to raise money for a cause and to help other people; they’re so enthusiastic about it,” MacDowell said. “Words can’t even express how you feel when you see them lighting up because they’re helping others.”

“Community survivors are here,” she says, “because of all these children and children around the world raising money for cancer research.”

Even the youngest in the school

understand what the Terry Fox run means and what Terry’s legacy represents, she says.

“When they see the survivors in their bright red shirts they see that it’s real.”

Since 1980 over $350 million has been raised worldwide in Terry’s name for cancer research; 84 cents of every dollar donated to the Terry Fox Foundation goes toward research.

Trent Hills Mayor and esophageal cancer survivor Hector Macmillan participated in the walk with the children of Hastings calling it a very emotional and uplifting experience.

“It’s emotional to see such good things being done for such a great cause,” Macmillan said. “There is such drive and commitment from our youth to fully understand Terry Fox and why he ran and to embrace it and carry on.”

“It’s great to see something in our time become generational and for such a worthy cause. It truly does touch us all,” he added.

Cancer survivors Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan, Terry Holland and Hastings Public School teachMacmillan said there were several er Patt MacDowell join students in the annual HPS Terry Fox run-walk. Photo: Bill Freeman other Trent Hills residents battling esophageal cancer along with him.

“We kept fairly tight.”

Some have lost their battle and that’s why Macmillan is so moved by the sight of children carrying Terry’s legacy forward.

“They know why they’re going out for a walk.”

News - Campbellford - The Papaioannou Family, owners of Be My Guest Restaurant, are once again offering a free Thanksgiving Dinner on Monday, October 13, between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.

In a press release from Campbellford District High School it noted, “Diners attending this amazing Thanksgiving meal will have the opportunity to make a donation to the CDHS Breakfast Program.”

It’s no secret breakfast is the most important meal of the day especially for children and teenagers. Research has proven that children and teens who eat breakfast perform better in the classroom with better concentration and problem-solving skills.

Breakfast also supports students in physical education and sports, giving them energy and improved coordination.

The CDHS Breakfast Program is open to all students and offers them nutritious meals, three days a week.

Many of the students at CDHS have early starts to their days with music or sports practices or a long bus ride into school and by 10 a.m., many of them need something more to eat. Various student groups within CDHS are contributing to the charity event.

Terra Airhart has the Learning Life Skills class decorating a donation box to be placed at Be My Guest the week before and for the day of the event for

Council approves subsidy help for families who can’t afford recreation fees

News - Trent Hills - The municipality will offer subsidies for recreation programs it runs to residents unable to pay the fees “due to financial restraints.”

Council approved the new fee assistance policy last week as a condition of receiving a Trillium grant still to be announced related to a new field house Hastings.

A limit of $3,000 was set on the total amount to be distributed annually, with the subsidies to be handed out on a firstcome first-served basis.

Councillor Kim McNeil pointed out that contradicted the policy’s assertion that “no Municipality of Trent Hills resident will be denied access” to a department program because of insufficient funds, when the money could run out before all requests are met.

CAO Mike Rutter said, “It is important to have an upset limit just to give some certainty for the budget,” but he agreed the policy needed to be changed to read it is the municipality’s “goal that no resident be turned away.”

The subsidy program approved by council September 16 identifies three levels of financial eligibility. Families with an income of $20,000 or less (Level One) would receive 100 per cent assistance, those in Level Two ($20,000 to $30,000) would have programming fees cut in half, and families in the $30,000-$40,000 range, Level Three, would be given a 25 per cent subsidy.

All requests for assistance are to be dealt with in a confidential manner by the recreation manager and will involve the filling out of an application form that asks for total household and assets, as well as the names, birth dates and school

or occupation of all family members.

Rutter made clear the fee assistance policy applies only to recreation programs Trent Hills operates and not those provided by others, such as minor hockey or minor ball, who use municipal facilities. The swimming pool, although contracted out to the YMCA to manage, would “probably” be considered a municipal program. Summer camps are another.

Rutter said community organizations and service groups will be asked for financial help to increase the number of opportunities available for financially strapped residents.

Mayor Hector Macmillan enthusiastically backed the policy and suggested the municipality start it off with $5,000.

“We know that council is supportive so if we’re finding that it’s becoming

over-subscribed, we’ll come back and ask for a little more,” Rutter said.

McNeil questioned the need to ask about a family’s assets, in addition to income. Macmillan said it’s no different from what Northumberland County’s social services department requires of applicants; “there is a certain amount of disclosure you need to give to prove that you need assistance.”

Macmillan said there are children who could use a “small hand up” to benefit from physical activity that will keep them healthy.

Rutter said support for a facility that is “affordable and accessible for the community” emerged as the concept of the air-supported sports structure evolved in discussions.

That thinking was reflected in the setting of the rates at the facility a week earlier, when they were “reduced

significantly” from what is charged in larger centres close by, he said.

Local groups “made it very clear to us that at this point there’s really not a volunteer capacity to run a lot of programming out of the facility,” Rutter said, such as programs involving golf, tennis, soccer and basketball skills development.

The municipality’s goal will be “to seed those programs and then hope that the community capacity grows to the point where we can turn [responsibility for them] over to them.”

It is “not the intention for the municipality to stay involved in programming on a long-term basis,” he said, citing the municipality’s master recreation plan. “We’ll be involved as long as we need to be to make sure that it is busy … and the community gets a real benefit from it.”

Stepping Stone will plead bus stop case News - Havelock - The Hucklebug Childcare Centre will take its case for a bus stop at Stepping Stone Pre-School in Havelock to the public school board’s Resource Committee October 8.

Hucklebug wants one of the buses collecting students from Havelock Belmont Public School to take six children, four to six years of age, from HBPS to Stepping Stone where they’d attend a licensed after-school program.

Bus owners and operators already drive by the centre and have plenty of space but the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board’s transportation policy stipulates that busing students will only occur if a child is more than one kilometre from the school; Stepping Stone is 800 metres from HBPS. A meeting last week with Hucklebug administrator Karen Radnor, parents, board officials, including superintendent

Peter Mangold, local trustee Shirley Patterson and Havelock-BelmontMethuen Mayor Ron Gerow was helpful, says Radnor.

“It didn’t create the resolution we were looking for but it was a great opportunity for the superintendent to come to Havelock to meet with us. It was very much appreciated,” Radnor said.

It was a chance to “share bits of information that were perhaps not completely understood by all parties.”

The meeting provided “more clarity,” Radnor said, and opened up a couple of additional options although their preferred goal is to win a “special exception” designation from the Resource Committee and KPR board so busing to Stepping Stone can take place.

“That’s our ultimate goal because we can easily care for a few children

at Stepping Stone. We have staffing in place, the program and licence in place for Kindergarten-age children.”

Over the past three years, Radnor says they’ve asked “many times” about the prospect of busing to Stepping Stone starting with the HBPS principal then moving on to the STSCO, the company that manages busing for the board.

“We really haven’t gone beyond STSCO the past two years. This is the first year we’ve gone beyond to the board. For the first time now we’ve heard that we need to create a special exception to the busing policy.”

To get that they’ll have to lobby the Resource Committee. The committee would make a recommendation one way or the other to the board later in October.

“That’s our plan,” Radnor says.

At the meeting Radnor and parents heard a little more about the use of free

after-school space at HBPS, thanks to a special funding allocation the school gets annually because of a special designation.

That was news to Radnor because Hucklebug offers after-school programming at Norwood District Public School but pays “high rent” for that space.

She says school surveys from HBPS indicate there isn’t enough interest for a licensed program at the school and even if there was, it would be a long planning and licensing process, then they’d have to buy equipment and arrange for staff.

It’s not an overnight solution, Radnor stressed.

Another option is a walking program with school staff walking with

children and meeting a daycare teacher who would escort children to Stepping Stone. Walking programs are done at a few schools in Peterborough.

“Because of the small number of children it’s doable,” says Radnor, although in bad weather it could be problematic.

“It could be something that would work for a time with both partners working together. My own feeling on behalf of Hucklebug is we should look at the Stepping Stone option. So perhaps we walk for a month and have a bus by winter. That would be good timing.”

PEAK Engineering and Construction Ltd. began work on an air-supported recreational facility in Hastings September 23. The field house will contain an indoor soccer pitch and walking track and accommodate sports programs such as tennis, flag football and field hockey. The total cost of the project is now pegged at slightly more than $4 million.

Performance reviews for physicians The evaluation will be done once a year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll give them some feedback, here are the good points, here are the issues, you might want to look at that, and think about that,â&#x20AC;? Collins said.

The goal is to have a mechanism for performance reviews in place by next March. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life,â&#x20AC;? she said of the rationale for the new approach being taken at the hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everywhere you go, every employee these days gets evaluated, they have a performance review â&#x20AC;Ś Basically, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just doing the same thing as everyone else.â&#x20AC;?

Another new location on the Hop, is the Straw Bale House where Judy Langdon, hostess, invites those on the tour to her home where she will be featuring two guest artists, Barb Trenholm and Leigh Thompson.

For Campbell-Dinkel itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s her mixed media and photography work that will be on display. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very much an amateur in the photography world,â&#x20AC;? she said.

She started taking photographs just last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of an impulsive thing when I see something and it strikes a chord with me I try to get the camera see it the way I see it and play around with it in editing to get the emotion I saw when I took it,â&#x20AC;? she commented.

As for the encaustic bees wax creations, working with it is something she enjoys for several reasons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is textural; I love the fact I can play with the textural aspects of it. You can melt it, carve into it â&#x20AC;Ś itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a sculptural quality to it,â&#x20AC;? she noted.

In the process of creating her mixed media art she uses a number of items from sand to quartz crystals, acrylics to oil paint.

Joining the other artists for the gallery and studio hop this year, she hopes to learn what people think of her art. She hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shown her art in public before. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It could be quite fun and neat to get feedback and see what people say. This is the sort of thing I love going to,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Other venues include Terrie MacDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debut and opening of her studio Terra Dolus Pottery, near Campbellford, and the Naked Elm Gallery near Hastings where the paintings and sculptures of Erwin Rummell will be on display.

Mucahey & Co Hawkers and Peddlersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mobile gallery will be hopping throughout the Trent Hills communities.

The Hop takes place October 4 and 5.

News - Norwood - AsphodelNorwood Deputy-mayor Joe Crowley was so impressed with Rob Gordonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest book Dressed in Khaki: 1914-1919 that he bought two copies and will donate them to the public libraryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Norwood and Westwood branches.

Crowley attended a meeting of the Asphodel-Norwood Historical Society where Gordon, a two-time Royal Canadian Legion Branch 300 Legionnaire of the Year and author of Long Ago But Not Forgotten and Toronto: A Story In Stone and the founder of the branchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military museum, made a short presentation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I read the books very thoroughly and they are very, very interesting reading,â&#x20AC;? Crowley told council near the end of its open session.

Crowley thought the library branches should have copies of the book which finds its inspi-

ration in letters written by Norwood area soldiers to Norwood Methodist Church minister Mansell Irwin during the Great War. Those letters were originally given to the Norwood Library and have since been collated, preserved and researched by historical society president Judy Chaplin.

Using those missives as his foundation, Gordon provides a fascinating and quite moving portrait of those young letter writers and the extraordinary circumstances they found themselves in as the world went mad for four years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is to Gordonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s credit to take the initiative to do this book,â&#x20AC;? said Crowley.

Crowley also suggested that the time might be right to think about a council-sponsored book project that brings the townshipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history up to date including the years since the amalgamation of Asphodel Township with the village of

Norwood in 1998.

Along with Gordonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two military books, there have been three history books written about Asphodel and Norwood: Norwood: The Friendly Town, by Richard Dean, was published in 1963 and updated in 1966; Norwood: Then and Now, published in 1978 by the villageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s centennial book committee, and Jean Grahamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Asphodel: A Tale of a Township, also published in 1978.

Marion Cuthbertson Robson also published Docâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Shop: a small town smith remembers bygone days in 1984. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is time that our community fund, or help to fund, another book,â&#x20AC;? said Crowley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would encourage this. Perhaps it is something our next council could address.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Preserving the history of our communityâ&#x20AC;? is important and should be supported, he said.

County told it’s at risk of major catastrophe from oil spill

News - Northumberland County - The Northumberland Chapter of the Council of Canadians says local municipalities should take steps “to mitigate any potential catastrophes” that could result from the transport of crude oil across the south end of the county.

Those steps include petitioning the federal government to delay Enbridge’s plan to reverse the flow of oil through its Line 9, which runs from Sarnia to Montreal and travels the length of Northumberland.

In a recent presentation to county council, chapter president Colm Maher said Enbridge should not be allowed to proceed with its plan, approved by the National Energy Board, until the 38-year-old pipeline has been replaced or upgraded with improved leak detec-

tion systems as well as water quality testing along its route.

The line will be carrying tar sands oil that is “much different from what is presently transported,” Maher said. It’s “heavy, toxic, corrosive and explosive.”

Maher told council “there are also two virtual pipelines stretching across Northumberland County, the CP and CN lines, [which] carry toxic, explosive loads by our door every day.

“Both lines, totaling about 125 kilometres, go right through the population centres of Port Hope, Colborne and Brighton, and both are often very close to Lake Ontario, and all our watersheds, including the Ganaraska River and the Trent River.

Maher also insisted the federal government be petitioned “to require the daily posting of all toxic, inflammable

and hazardous materials on a public web site, complete with maps showing the oil transportation routes.”

As well, oil companies that transport oil should be made to carry a minimum of $3 billion liability insurance, and to post bonds or set up reserve funds to cover the costs of cleaning up oil spills and explosion sites.

Maher pointed to last year’s train derailment at Lac Megantic, which resulted in the deaths of 47 people and “massive environmental and property damage,” and the pipeline rupture in Kalamazoo, Michigan, four years ago that is still being cleaned up at a cost of more than $1 billion, as reasons for council to take action.

He said the province and the county “gain virtually nothing in the transport of oil through and under our land but we

will be left with all the risks,” including loss of life, contaminated water supply and expensive cleanup costs.

Maher said the local Council of Canadians chapter recognizes Northumberland residents “are somewhat powerless to control what the federal [and] provincial governments do, or what the National Energy Board approves,” but they can “constantly remind them to do their job: to govern and to enforce the watered-down environmental legislation” that’s in place.

County council took no action on Maher’s request other than to receive for information. Warden Linda Thompson said the county’s emergency responders have met with Enbridge and similar meetings were held with the two rail companies in the last four months.

“There is considerable dialogue”

between Enbridge and the emergency responders, and CN and CP “regularly correspond with all of our member municipalities in regards to emergency response,” Thompson said in an interview.

“There is an ongoing dialogue with CN and CP in regards to materials that move through the communities and other health and safety issues, and track repair work that’s happening, and those types of things.”

Thompson said local “emergency responders have been satisfied with the information” they have been given.

She added the Association of Municipalities of Ontario has been working with government agencies “to ensure things like tanker safety is being changed.”

It’s also “working diligently with the carriers … on these issues.”

Local musician turns to crowd funding for new record

Apple day tradition in Havelock

The First Havelock Scouts took full advantage of the beautiful summer-like weather to take part in the traditional Scouts Apple Day with members of the Havelock Scouting movement offering up some tasty and freshly picked apples to local supporters. Among those doling out shiny apples was Scout Tyannia Huggins who was stationed at Havelock Foodland.

explained.

His goal using the crowd funding concept is to raise $8,000 to cover the costs of CD obligations.

“If we hit $12,000 it will give me some money to hire a publicist and do some marketing,” he added.

He spent a month or more redesigning his web site so the crowd funding aspect of raising money can happen.

“With everyone’s help I think this will be a really great experience,” said Tizzard.

Over 45 days (September 15 to November 1) he hopes to be able to achieve his goal of recording and releasing No Dark No Light. The current release date is Valentine’s Day and will feature a song he wrote called The King of Broken Hearts.

A video on his web site helps fans learn more about this campaign and travel through his musical career.

Tizzard has worked with the Watchmen, Thornley and over the years received numerous Juno nominations, Much Music Awards, and released six gold and platinum records.

In fact Universal records is rereleasing The Watchmen—In the Trees celebrating the 20th anniversary

of their album.

His past is a part of his life and the songs on his record reflect his journey.

“The writing of the new record No Dark No Light” took Tizzard “into some really dark places,” he noted.

He travelled to Newfoundland where “I saw friends, enemies and the grave of my mom,” he said quietly as he reminisced about the journey.

“This record is really about, and I hate to use this term, but it is a mid-life record, an evaluation.”

This from a musician who left the touring circuit doing 300 shows a year, when he discovered the joys of parenthood, “a second mortgage,” and

more.

“Each song tells its own story,” he continued.

“They have characters, the characters have names, places and times. I hope my friends will see themselves in my music.”

Oh and there are perks too as part of his crowd funding approach.

“My perk of the week … is to have me personalize a musical message for your answering machine [MP3 emailed to you],” he explained.

Asking for small amounts of money from a lot of people is a way to raise funds so he can market and bring to others his latest record called No Dark No Light.

He had just arrived from doing a series of interviews in Toronto and had set aside an hour to talk about his new method of getting his music to people.

The solo record is about where he grew up in Newfoundland and about his life here in Campbellford.

Lemmon Sisters swing open West School

Entertainment - On a stormy Sunday evening the spirits of West School where awakened from their slumber by a lively rendition of Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy sung by none other than the classy Lemmon Sisters. With a four-piece jazz band to open and as backup for the ladies, the old school house was jumping. Joni Mitchell’s song Raised on Robbery was a hit with the full crowd, along with Heebie Jeebies and many other old favourites from the 1940s, 50s and 60s. It was hard to stay in your seat, so we didn’t.

The Lemmon Sisters are Tanya Wills, Jeanette Sanderson, and Rosemary Buchanan.

Fast Fingers Rob Phillips on keyboard, Dennis Pendrith plucking bass, Curtis Cronkwright on drums, with Chad Brooks on side percussion made up a sweet-sounding jazz band that even the Jamaican contingent in the audience couldn’t sit still for. Andy Thompson did his usual fantastic sound mix; the man has good ears.

It was fabulous to be part of the reawakening of West School on #30 north of Campbellford.

Former trustee wants to get back on board

By John Campbell

News - Kawartha-Pine Ridge - The “most important issue” facing small, rural schools in the next few years will be to keep them open “and effective,” says school board trustee hopeful Verna Shackleton.

“I have a real passion [for them] and I think they’re at risk,” said Shackleton, who served 13 years as a trustee with the Kawartha, Pine Ridge District School Board, most recently in 2010.

She’s currently the chair of the Community Friends of Norwood District High School, which was formed two years ago “to set up good vibrations with the school board” to lessen the possibility of the high school being closed.

Shackleton said the risk of closure “is when you can’t provide enough programs for the students, it’s not so much filling the rooms.” They’re courses the students need to take in order to go to university or college, or become apprentices.

“We have to think outside the box and that has been happening,” she said, giving as an example Norwood and Campbellford high schools using teleconferencing to share teaching resources for select classes, for example, calculus. Separately, the classes are too small to offer but when you combine

them using modern technology, “you can afford to have the teacher for the class.”

Enrollment at high schools has been declining but she’s encouraged by numbers showing they’re “starting to go up again a bit” at the elementary school level.

The retired school counsellor said her experience as a former trustee and former employee of the school board has given her “a fair amount of knowledge of how the system works.

“I believe in working proactively with the board,” she said, rather than adopting a confrontational approach.

“If we all work together we can keep our schools going.”

Shackleton said she’s “a real supporter of rural schools,” which “offer a different kind of education from city schools, because staff know the kids and the kids know the staff.”

She “would really like to be trustee again,” saying she still has the passion and the energy to handle the job of representing Asphodel-Norwood, Havelock-Belmont-Methuen, and Trent Hills, a role currently filled by Shirley Patterson, who’s seeking re-election.

Low-cost rabies vaccination clinics begin throughout Northumberland

News - Northumberland County - There are more places to go this year to ensure your pet is protected against a deadly disease.

Low-cost rabies vaccination clinics are being offered by local veterinarians and the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit.

Cost is $25 per animal (cash only), and dogs need to be on leashes and cats should be in a carrier. No examination of the pet will take place at the clinics.

“These rabies vaccination clinics are an easy and affordable way for people to protect their fourfooted friends from the risk of rabies,” said Richard Ovcharovich, manager of environmental health with the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge (HKPR) District Health Unit.

“After all, rabies is no way for a family pet to die,” he added.

In a press release it was noted that two new veterinarian locations in Bewdley and Perrytown will be joining the list of places where Northumberland County residents can get their pets vaccinated for

rabies.

The annual low-cost rabies vaccination clinics return to the area on Saturday, October 4.

Pet owners are encouraged to get their dogs and cats vaccinated against rabies at any of these clinics.

These are the locations and times for this area: English Line Veterinary Service (527 County Road 38), 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Hrushy Veterinary Housecall Services, Codrington Fire Hall (County Road 27), 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

There are also clinics at Rice Lake Animal Hospital, and in Cobourg, Perrytown and Port Hope.

Rabies is a serious virus that attacks the nerves and brain of an animal.

People and animals can get rabies by being licked, bitten or scratched by warm-blooded mammals that are infected with rabies.

If left untreated, rabies is fatal.

Because of the risks associated with rabies, it is mandatory in this area that pet owners get rabies vaccinations for their dogs and cats.

The vaccination status of all domestic dogs and cats involved in animal bite incidents is TRUSS & FLOOR checked.

Deputy-mayor shares anxieties about bridge closure

Trent Hills and his own HastNews - Hastings - Bob Crate ings ward but doesn’t sugar is bullish on the future of coat anxieties about the imBy Bill Freeman

pending Lock 18 bridge closure in January, 2015.

Crate, deputy-mayor of Trent Hills, was acclaimed to the position and hasn’t been forced into the trench warfare of campaigning for the October 27 municipal vote; still, he’s attending candidate meetings and answering questions.

He spoke to the Trent Hills Independent at the September 25 mayoral debate in Hastings sounding confident about the direction he sees the municipality travelling in the next four years but he expressed concerns about the bridge closure, the veritable elephant in the room in a chat about Hastings.

The bridge is slated to close in January for what Parks Canada says will be a 14-week period to allow the installation of a new swing bridge. The original plan had been a lengthy repair project but public pressure forced the federal gov-

ernment to change tack and opt for a complete bridge replacement at a higher cost ($3.4 million) but with more lasting value. It also moved the project date to 2014.

The bridge is being built off site and will be installed in sections.

A pedestrian access will be maintained to allow people to across the river but vehicular traffic will have to make a significant detour and that lack of direct access has the community justifiably worried even as the municipality and the Hastings Helpers volunteer group attempts to mitigate, to some degree, the disruption that will inevitably occur.

“My big concern now is trying to get through the winter with the bridge,” says Crate. “I am anxious about it. I look at it and say ‘I hope they can do the job they say they are going to in three months.’ It’s still going to have a disruptive effect on the business community in

the village.

“We could lose some businesses and that would be heart-breaking because we’ve been working so hard to fix up the corner and marina [and build the multi-use field house],” he said.

The municipality is working on bridge closure parking with security so people “can feel secure if they have a car on either side of the river.”

Council, says Crate, has done a good job the past four years and is thrilled by subdivision development in Hastings that’s brought 30 new homes to town so far.

Council still “works hard” at making people think of Trent Hills as one municipal unit.

“It’s still a work in progress trying to make everybody one community. I talk to people and say that not everything is going to Campbellford and now it’s starting to show. The dome is here; I’d like

to see us make some decision on the arena, hopefully it’s something we can re-use somehow.”

Crate would like to see the municipality’s various historical groups merged in some way and “put everybody in one building.”

He’s confident the Hastings Fieldhouse will be a magnetic draw for all age groups and that more development is on its way to the village.

“We’ve got people looking at other parts of the village to do things. They’re not going to invest their money unless there’s a return on the horizon. You can see that in the subdivision.”

A proposed farm winery on the edge of town will be another tourist draw, he says.

“All these things look encouraging and I look forward to having some announcements soon on some things that are going to happen.”

Butter tart fest a sweet delight

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - The entries might have been down but the quality was sweet perfection at the second annual Hastings Butter Tart Festival held at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 106.

A confluence of competing events like the Roseneath Fair and Brighton’s Applefest, along with a burst of sum-

Jacqueline Beamish of Hastings won the freestyle and gluten-free categories at the second annual Hastings Butter Tart Festival with her daughter, Mary Jane Moffat, winning the top prize in the traditional category. Jacqueline’s freestyle entry were chocolate butter tarts. Judging the freestyle and traditional butter tarts were Carol Darling, Rick Norlock, Dwight Boyd and Lou Rinaldi.

mer-like weather, contributed to the low entry turnout but organizers were still pleased with what they offered the general public and that all three categories, traditional, freestyle and gluten-free, had entries.

“Very excellent and high quality,” chief festival organizer Skye Morrison said of the butter tart samples the five contestants submitted.

“We’ll keep going and try to expand,” Morrison said.

You can’t worry about low numbers, she added.

Morrison says the committee should perhaps work more closely with Regional Tourism Organization 8 (Kawarthas-Northumberland) to help widen the event’s appeal into centres like Peterborough and Belleville. The Kawarthas-Northumberland represents Northumberland County, Peterborough and the Kawarthas and Kawartha Lakes as a tourism destination.

“That requires some time,” she said. “It’s still worth doing and we’ll keep doing it.

It might be something to do with [Trent Hills’] Incredible Edibles. Structurally we know it’s a good thing.”

Last year’s inaugural event drew 14 entrants.

Morrison told the judges that “even if we have only one entrant you have to decide if it was a first, second or third.”

“She has helped me learn how to do this properly,” says Morrison.

“I enjoy the foods the best,” says Darling of her more than 30 years of judging which has taken her to fairs and exhibitions across the province.

The butter tart, she says, is “sort of a Canadian tradition.

“A true butter tart to me is just plain but a lot of people put raisins and nuts in.

Some families like raisins in their tarts and that’s the only way they make them. When you put something else in it changes the taste.”

It’s entirely up to the cook what they do, Darling adds.

Council News A Look Inside Our September Newsletter Council Adopts Official Plan Northumberland County has a plan in place for the strategic development of local lands following Council’s unanimous vote to adopt the long-awaited Official Plan. Under development since the fall of 2013, the Official Plan is a policy framework that will guide local municipalities and the County in planning land development and use. In particular, it creates opportunities for large-scale employers to locate in the County by grouping together lands zoned for employment/industrial use, rather than having smaller tracts of such land dispersed throughout the County.

The Official Plan will now go before the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing for review and decision regarding approval.

Golf tournament raises awareness about mental health and suicide prevention

By Sue Dickens

Sports - Warkworth - The eighth annual Michael Bouchier Memorial Golf Tournament was held last Saturday as a tribute to him by friends and family.

“The tournament has a dual purpose, to get together to celebrate the memory of Mike and second to raise mental health awareness and suicide prevention,” said his cousin Craig Laver.

Michael Bouchier committed suicide in June, 2007, at the age of 22, at his home just outside Warkworth.

Organized by Laver and brother Ian, and two of Bouchier’s friends, Dillon Brenton and Rob Black, the event attracted 21 teams with 84 players hitting the links.

“He is not only my cousin but was one of my best friends,” said Laver while waiting for his fellow golfers to arrive.

Money raised from the tournament is donated to the Campbellford & District Community Mental Health Centre.

“The Centre has done a number of initiatives in the past few years, including a poster campaign the year following Mike’s death,” Laver explained.

At last year’s tournament a revitalized poster was unveiled.

The poster was designed

by Rotary exchange student Carolin Christ who spent a year at Campbellford District High School and has now returned to Germany.

“The Centre is going into the schools focusing on the students,” Laver commented.

“So we’re raising funds to help the Centre in its initiatives like this and start the conversation on mental health awareness,” he added.

Last year funds were used to bring TSN sports talk show host Michael Landsberg to the high school in Campbellford to talk frankly about his own struggles with depression and urge others to do the same.

Jessica Holt, manager of community mental health at the Centre, commented on the funding they receive.

“Without donations and fund-raising money we can’t run our psycho social programs which are like yoga and those programs that develop relationships between the clients that aren’t direct counselling but [have] a social aspect to it,” she explained.

“Without this kind of money we’re not able to do those sorts of things, we’re

not able to do the education,” she added.

She is hoping that in the spring they will be able to bring a physician to the area “to speak on adolescent psycho social issues, mental health and that sort of thing, to parents.” The new poster last year generated a lot of interest.

“It provides a phone number and a place to go and has generated a lot of focus,” she commented.

The Centre’s initiatives are aimed at providing education to not only the friends of someone in trouble but to family as well “because that’s a huge piece, the family being able to identify it.”

“Often family members are the ones that see it before the client does usually,” said Holt.

The Centre is located on the second floor of the Campbellford Memorial Hospital and accepts referrals and “walk-ins in crisis.”

The Michael Bouchier Memorial Tournament raised $2,000 this year.

Astronaut Chris Hadfield started his career flying gliders at Mountain View

News - Belleville - At nine years old and before Canada even had an astronaut program, Chris Hadfield decided to be an astronaut. An early progression along that path to eventually commanding the International Space Centre was flying Schweizer 222s and 223 gliders at Mountain View Airport in Prince Edward County and living in “tent city” at CFB Trenton.

It was those gliders at Mountain View that gave Colonel (Retired) Chris Hadfield his first taste of slipping the surly bonds of Earth at the age of 15.

“My first solo flight was right here,” Hadfield told several media types prior to his address at the Quinte Human Resources Professionals Association presentation at the Empire Theatre in Belleville sponsored by Diamond sponsors the National Air Force Museum of Canada, Quinte Travel Health Clinic, Walsh and Associates Occupational Health Services Ltd., and media sponsors Quinte Broadcasting.

“My instructor was a great little Scottish guy named Crawford McCreath.

He was just a little bit of a guy and I got to talk to him after I’d already flown in space. It was a real treat to show him where his teaching had taken me.”

Air Cadets was a conscious part of that plan, he told the media.

“I mean, I consciously thought that would be the coolest thing ever and how do I turn myself into that [an astronaut].

How do you go from being a little kid here in southern Ontario to walking on the moon? Air Cadets was one of the things I was doing because you fly in space. It’s a verb; learn to fly, and scuba dive and languages and engineering and all the other things you might need.

And, amazingly enough, I flew in space three times and commanded a space ship and it started here.”

In response to another media question, Hadfield said he thought the whole human race could benefit from 100 orbits of Earth at the window of the International Space Station (ISS).

“I really think everyone should see 100 orbits of the world,” he stated. “I think it fundamentally gives you a respect and a sense of togetherness, a patience and also an impression of the Earth’s strength and immutability that would be really helpful for everyone’s decision making. We get so wrapped up in the concerns of this week or the concerns of this year and we very seldom get an actual perspective of the whole world itself.”

Colonel (Retired) Hadfield said the world’s environment is indescribably tough having withstood asteroid impacts and electromagnetic impulses from the sun and volcanic eruptions.

“The world is going to be fine,” he indicated, adding, “it is us who is threatened. We’re threatening ourselves. We’re messing up our own pool. That’s what we really need to be concerned about and Canada’s probably not the epicentre of the people who are going to suffer from it, but there

are parts of the world where hundreds of millions of people are on the verge of being starved by the change in the environment. That’s the real concern.

Are we willing to allow hundreds of millions of us to die because of environmental change? That’s the real issue. It’s the environment that keeps us alive and I think that’s the issue and that’s the reason the United Nations (UN) is talking about it. That’s the type of global view, I think, that everybody needs to have in order to get back to individual decision making. It’s not somebody else that’s causing this problem, it’s each one of us.”

Viewing the world from the ISS develops a much broader perspective, he said.

“The world is huge and magnificent and constantly refreshing itself and you really start to see it is a complete place and all of us are kind of in it together and it’s not easy to act on tradition, but with increased capability and increased awareness should come increased responsibility,” he noted.

One of the biggest changes in the world over the past few years has been the social networking system, Hadfield stated. On his other trip into space, he had just a film camera and a ham radio, a much more restrictive situation than his final flight when he had digital cameras and the ability to Facebook with people almost as quickly as things happened on the last flight.

the Internet itself is the rapidly increased ability to share ideas and the accelerated capability that comes from that,” he said.

Hadfield said he sees Canada maintaining its stellar position in space exploration.

“Canada has been one of the world leaders in space exploration since the beginning,” he told the media. “We were the third nation on Earth in space after the Soviet Union with Sputnik and the Americans. We were third and we’ve been going to space ever since and we’ve flown eight Canadians in space. We lead the world in telecommunications because we have to, we’re not very many people spread over a huge area and we lead the world in remote sensing, in trying to understand and see our whole north, and we lead the world in robotics, undoubtedly.”

He said he sees Canada’s astronauts continuing to help develop new systems of travelling into space and to the moon and contributing to space exploration.

“I think the way we’ve done it is smart,” he noted.

“We don’t build a huge launch infrastructure, we look for areas that are profitable and challenging for our businesses and our universities and we pursue those. We’ve been doing it for 52 or 53 years and we’re kind of the envy of the world, that we take the amount the government invests and it’s almost a $3.5-billion industry in Canada. It’s not perfect, but we do a really good job of it.”

News - Campbellford - Over the past several months Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH), Community Care Northumberland (CCN) and other partners in the Central East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) have been working closely together to find ways to bring services together.

The goal is to improve client access to high quality services, create readiness for future health system transformation and as stated in their press release, “to make the best use of the public investment in

healthcare.”

“We welcome this new opportunity to partner with Campbellford Memorial Hospital. These changes will be seamless to our clients and volunteers,” stated Trish Baird, CCN executive director.

“Our two organizations will continue to operate separately, providing services to our clients and patients independently.

No employees in either organization will experience loss of employment through this change,” she added.

Hard To Beat the Personal Touch

Today, we all attempt to look for deals; prices and general offers that leave our wallet feeling pretty special and our egos believing we have put one over on â&#x20AC;&#x153;the manâ&#x20AC;?.

But is that always the case?

If you are in the market for eyeglasses or even contact lenses, are you prepared to settle for a low ball price which, when you finally receive your purchase turns out not to be quite the deal you expected, after all?

It can and does happen. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever ordered products online, you know that the Internet often beats a regular store hands-down for convenience. For one thing, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to leave your house. Plus, with just a few clicks of your mouse, you can also even comparison shop for a great price.

However, you need to consider certain issues when you buy eyeglasses online. Every pair of glasses is a custom-made item. There are many different designs and materials for both frames and lenses and different lens treatments. Everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and eyes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are different, too. So you or an optician must take various measurements for a proper fit. How is that going to occur accurately online?

An advantage of going to a traditional optical store like Inova Opticians is that a licensed and professional optician can walk you through the process step-by-step personally. They can do this so smoothly that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not even aware of all the choices. When you order online, you must make each decision on your own â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and it can often seem overwhelming.

When it comes to your eyes, why take unnecessary chances? Make an appointment with a reputable eye care specialist like Inova Opticians. Conveniently located at 150 Sidney Street in Belleville, Inova Opticians is your one-stop destination for professional eye examinations, modern fashionable eyewear and consultations to ensure the health of you and your familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eyes. Why not â&#x20AC;&#x153;likeâ&#x20AC;? us on Facebook? Call (613) 968-8846 today; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to make an appointment to put your vision into perspective â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and to begin to see things more clearly.

As a result of the efforts to forge the partnership, CMH and CCN have a shared services agreement that will see CMH provide support to CCN in the areas of ďŹ nance, payroll and human resources. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A key priority for our hospital is to develop partnerships for better sharing of resources and competencies,â&#x20AC;? stated Brad Hilker, CMH president and CEO. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a history of working collaboratively with Community Care Northumberland and our new shared services agreement provides both organizations with an opportunity to maximize our resources while we continue to focus on program and service delivery,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is great to see this team coming together to further develop high quality integrated support services capable of meeting the future needs we share.â&#x20AC;?

Deborah Hammons, CEO, Central East LHIN commented, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Moving forward with this shared services agreement is an important element in the creation of a Rural Health Hub in Trent Hills.â&#x20AC;?

She also added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a key recommendation contained in the Northumberland County Hospital and Community Health Services Integration Plan which was approved by the LHIN Board in February 2014.â&#x20AC;?

The review focused on 1,181 cases; 1,017 homicide victims and 164 mission women.

The number was nearly double what was originally believed and it sent shockwaves through women’s, First Nations and other social groups across Canada.

“The plight of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada remains a disgrace and travesty to all of us,” event organizers said in a press release.

“Decades of colonialist government policies have impoverished and broken apart Indigenous families and communities, leaving many Indigenous women and girls vulnerable to exploitation and attack.

“The lack of appropriate investigation techniques, adequate resources and political will to tackle the danger and disenfranchisement facing Indigenous women has been the hallmark of various levels

the human rights organization Amnesty International are behind an event this weekend that aims to raise awareness of one of Canada’s national shames: the number of missing and murdered Indigenous women.

The event, called Sisters In Spirit, takes place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, October 4, at the powwow parkgrounds at 275 Bayshore Road (just west of Deseronto where Highway 2 becomes Bayshore Road).

The event will feature music, dancers, guest presenters, a tobacco ceremony, fellowship and a potlatch feast. Guests are asked to bring one food item and a lawn chair.

Amnesty International groups 111 (Belleville), 150 (Napanee) and 125 (Kingston) are hosting this event, amid concerns about a growing list of missing or murdered Indigenous women.

that since 2004 Amnesty International Canada has activated its Stolen Sisters Campaign, partnering with Indigenous groups and using their resources and 60,000 members to create publicity and pressure on this issue.

Amnesty International Canada has also worked with law enforcement officers to develop investigative protocols and accountability mechanisms to eliminate bias in their response to the needs of the women and their families.

For the past seven years the Native Women’s Association of Canada has spearheaded and supported annual nationwide “Sisters in Spirit” events on October 4.

These events started as vigils but soon expanded to community gatherings that honoured the dead and missing women and their families and called for action from all government levels through petitions, placards and awareness materials.

TRAVEL

A visit to Bayfield, at the northern tip of Wisconsin

By John M. Smith

An evening moon is captured amid the sailboats in Bayfield’s harbour.

Museum, for both offer interesting displays and area history. And no visit to the Bayfield area would be complete without venturing out, via boat, to the Apostle Islands and, in particular, the awesome sea caves found along some of these fascinating islands. If you’re in Bayfield during the summer season, plan to take in a concert at the Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua, too, an intimate 900-seat tent theatre, where such artists as Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt, Jeff Daniels, Helen Reddy, and the Oak Ridge Boys performed this past year. A winter visit may provide you with an opportunity to drive on an ice road to nearby Madeline Island and/or to take a snowmobile trip to the stunning ice caves.

If you want to escape to an away-from-it-all kind of place, Bayfield, Wisconsin, may be exactly what you’re looking for. This tiny community, located right on the shore of Lake Superior, offers the visitor an opportunity to explore a fascinating little city and also provides convenient access to the nearby and magnificent Apostle Islands. At this time of year, there are those spectacular autumn

Living - Perhaps this is the year you’ve decided to take an autumn drive to the north, and a bit further afield, and you’ve planned to circumnavigate Lake Superior. If this is the case, you’re going to cover a lot of scenic territory, and you’ll encounter many wonderful destinations along the route. However, I’m going to suggest a little side trip, in Wisconsin, for it’s just a short drive north on Route #13, on the Bayfield Peninsula, to reach the city of Bayfield. It’s the gateway to the Apostle Islands, a group of 22 islands located just off this peninsula, on Lake Superior.

I’ll be writing about these islands that are often referred to as “The Jewels of Lake Superior” in a future article, but today I’d like to concentrate on the city of Bayfield itself. After all, I recently spent some quality time in this surprisingly pleasant destination, and I’d like to share some of my discoveries with you.

To call Bayfield a “city” is perhaps a bit misleading to you, for it has a population of less than 500. However, a city it is, and it offers the visitor some interesting museums, eclectic shops and scrumptious restaurants. It’s also a community that boasts several arts studios, and although I don’t often talk about the arts scene specifically, I was so impressed by some I found there, that I’m going to specifically refer to three of them in this piece.

I first visited Klein’s Hitching Post where I checked out the wood carvings of George Klein. He’s a retired teacher who has also been at his carving craft for more than 30 years. His work area is larger than his own home’s living space, and he has several projects on the go all at once. He carves everything from fish to birds to carousel horses, and I found he had a vast number of items on display in the front room of his shop. He also showed me several pieces he was working on at present, and he even took me out to his garage, where he showed me an immaculate, bright red, rebuilt 1937 Studebaker truck. What a masterpiece!

Hundreds enjoy Alpaca Farm Days

By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - It was a busy weekend at Amazing Graze Alpacas north of Stirling as farm owners Marj Brady and Steven Martin hosted their annual Alpaca Farm Days, inviting the public to learn more about their award-winning operation and the animals they have raised.

Not long before the first open house, Brady left her banking job in Toronto to pursue an agricultural career, and with Martin continuing to commute to the city for work, has achieved significant success in a field that was brand new to them both not so many years ago. The most recent show they attended, held in August in the eastern Ontario community of Navan, saw Amazing Graze Alpacas awarded prizes including four firsts, one second and the competition’s reserve champion.

“It’s going well,” Brady says.

The fibre, harvested annually from the animals in a spring shearing, is known for its warmth and durability and there were many different alpaca products available to the approximately 300 visitors who arrived last Saturday and Sunday. Spinner, weaver and knitter Diane Wludyka, from nearby Stirling, provided demonstrations both days and spent much of her time spinning yarns while … spinning yarns.

“This is not a new thing,” she said, using foot power to operate a spinning wheel with her fingers deftly pulling at the fibres to create a single uniform strand.

But she admits there has been a significant resurgence in both interest and the practice itself in the past 20 years. “It’s the green thing to do,” she notes, adding the quality of handmade items will never be matched by machines.

A member of both the Warkworth Spinners and Weavers and the Belleville Weavers and Spinners, she says

membership has almost tripled since she first started attending meetings with the Warkworth group that will be celebrating its 25th anniversary on October 7.

“It’s a big day in Campbellford,” she says, with more than 100 spinners expected to attend the public event at St. John’s Church from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m.

Many visitors to the weekend open house were also fascinated by the animals themselves, with a pair of alpaca penned nearby, attracting more than their share of attention from adults and children alike.

Two-year-old Liam Golden, of Belleville, had no fears approaching the gentle animals and many others shared his

interest and curiosity. And they are very easy to handle, says Martin, who spent some time inside the pen as well answering a variety of questions about the animals and the work involved in keeping them.

Baked goods were also available, provided by Crazy for Cookies owner Nadine Welsh, whose alpaca-shaped gingerbread cookies proved a particularly popular treat. The Marmora baker is also a regular vendor at the Marmora Farmers’ Market but was attending her first Amazing Graze event and pleased by the traffic.

The weather, clear and warm, played a role in attracting the crowds as well, Brady says, noting the fall open houses aren’t always quite so perfect.

Liam Golden, two, was one of several youngsters enamoured by the animals at Amazing Graze Alpacas last weekend, arriving with his grandparents from Belleville.

About 300 people attended over the course of two days, says farm owner Steven Martin, pictured inside the pen in the background.

Rabies is a serious virus that attacks the nerves and brain of an animal.

People and animals can get rabies by being licked, bitten or scratched by warm-blooded mammals that are infected with rabies.

If left untreated, rabies is fatal.

Because of the risks associated with rabies, it is mandatory in this area that pet owners get rabies vaccinations for their dogs and cats.

The vaccination status of all domestic dogs and cats involved in animal bite incidents is checked.

For more information about rabies prevention or the upcoming vaccination clinics, contact your local veterinarian, call the HKPR District Health Unit toll-free at 1-866-888-4577 or visit <www.hkpr.on.ca>.

Toy ride brings motorcycle and classic car enthusiasts together

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford Bags and boxes of toys quickly filled an open trailer as motorcycle riders filled one corner of the Canadian Tire parking lot and classic cars parked nearby lined up for the second annual Trent Hills Fire Department/Community Living Motorcycle and Classic Car Ride for Toys.

Classic cars and trucks were new this year, adding another dimension to the ride.

The chrome on the bikes and polished cars and trucks glistened in the sunshine on what was a beautiful fall day, perfect for the ride.

“We’ve got about 80

registered so far and that means about 120 riders and drivers participating,” said Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake, as he stood by the command post alongside the volunteer firefighters who were registering participants.

“John McEvoy and Murray Kirkland approached me last year and they thought the toy drive is a great thing and asked if there was anything they can do to help,” explained Blake.

They came up with the idea to hold a ride through Trent Hills as a way to get people interested and to seek toy donations.

“It’s a great cause and

today is a great kick off, a way for us to let people know the toy drive is coming. I can’t believe it’s getting close to Christmas,” Blake added.

This year, he explained, “Murray really took the reins on the donation end and went to all the businesses asking for support. He raised more than $1,000 which really helps out because what we’re doing now is splitting all this up among all the schools so it gives them the opportunity if they miss a toy or a family needs some food they can do what they want.”

Kirkland said, “We’ve got some excellent sponsorship

from very generous donors.

This toy drive is really picking up.” His wife Theresa was with some of their family waiting to join the long line of bikers and car enthusiasts. She was going to drive the couple’s 1957 Panel Chevrolet 3100 which they have often taken to the annual Chrome on the Canal showstopper, held every year on the first Saturday in July.

She was there with her daughter Melissa, son-inlaw Jeff and grandson Jesse, age eight.

Jesse spoke to the Trent Hills Independent and explained what the toy ride was all about from his The Kirkland family are big supporters of the toy ride and were on hand at the kick off for this year’s Trent Hills toy drive: from left, Jesse, age eight; his grandmom Theresa Kirkland; his mom Melissa and his dad Jeff. Young Jesse donated Iron Man 3 which was added to the pile of toys. Photo: Sue Dickens

perspective.

“If kids don’t have any toys they can have one now … because they might be bored,” he said holding up an Iron Man 3 which he was about to add to the growing pile of donations.

Toys just kept coming during the interview and folks were lining up to register.

“We’ve surpassed what we did last year,” Blake commented.

McEvoy and his wife Heather and family started Chrome on the Canal in 2009 (originally

known as Charlie’s Indian Day) which gives motorcycle, car, and truck enthusiasts the opportunity to come together, display their vehicles, and share their interests with each other.

Today he was in a wheelchair, having suffered a stroke, but adamant about wanting to participate in this year’s toy ride kick off.

“One day John said Campbellford doesn’t have a toy ride and it’s a shame for our community so let’s get something going for Campbellford,”

said his wife who was by his side.

“Everything we do is to give back.”

Drop-off bins will be set up around town at Canadian Tire, Rona, Giant Tiger, Home Hardware, Sharpe’s Food Market, No Frills, LCBO and the Campbellford Community Resource Centre, during the first week of November.

Just before press time it was learned that the riders and local businesses raised and donated a total of $2,005 and 227 toys.

Dan Clost Living - A few years ago, we answered a knock at our front door. There stood a young fellow, about 12 years old, asking if Steve could come out and play. Steve didn’t live here. Naturally, our curiosity piqued, we asked him why he thought this was Steve’s home. His reply was along the lines that he knew his friend lived on our street and that his parents had lots of money. Our house looked like a rich person’s house so this is where Steve lived. He must have thought he had found the crazy people’s home because both my wife and I burst out laughing. I admit I was pleased to hear that someone, no matter who, thought our house was a rich person’s house.

(Gentle Reader, please tell your PC friends to not inundate my editor with comments about my insensitivity to crazy people; we’ve already selfidentified.)

Did you know there is a negative side to having a picture perfect landscape?

Real estate agents will tell you that dressing up the greenery makes a home more attractive to potential buyers. Various local groups will try to put your house on a garden tour. Both of those are positive outcomes. However, the “richer” your home appears; the more attractive it can be for a burglar. A sobering thought about property crimes is that the clearance rate (us non-police folk call this “solved”) is less than 20 per cent, according to the most recent statistics I found for our area.

Since this a gardening column, we’ll focus on your estate’s landscape and what you can do to deter a burglar. I will say, though, the most effective deterrent is a dog with a loud bark. (Just like Sox, and Spectre before him.)

How do burglars get into your house? Obviously they come in through the doors and windows.

There are two things we can do: make those vulnerable areas visible and make it difficult to approach them.

We’re comfortable with the traditional use of greenery around our houses such as spreaders under the windows and pointers on the corners. You don’t have to walk a street very far to see overgrown examples of the

original plantings encroaching past the edges of doors and windows. Along the sides we like to have mostly smaller shrubs and perennials covering up the parging, stone rubble foundation and those ugly basement windows. If this describes your home, GR, best get busy thinking about changing things.

As an aside, we often hear at the garden centre, that folks are tearing out an overgrown foundation planting. They ask us for advice as to what they could plant in its stead. My question to them is, “Did you like the original arrangement before it became unmanageable?” The answer is almost always positive. My suggestion becomes, “Recreate the original and then keep up with annual pruning.” With proper care, you should never have to replace a “foundation” planting.

Pointers, an old term for upright evergreens such as cedars and junipers, are essential to the landscape design, especially as enhancements to your home’s architectural features. Consider the mature size of the plant and compare that to the space available. On the gable end of a house, an eight-foot-wide Mountbatten juniper might fit

SAVE ANYWHERE.

the bill while the narrow spot between bay window and front steps might best be filled by the two-foot-wide deGroot’s Spire cedar. (It comes with a high-end price tag but you get what you pay for.)

Spreaders (think evergreen groundcovers but at a height of two to four feet) are still a mainstay in the landscape but there are so many more choices these days. You can easily pick a colour, texture and size to fit any space and any design scheme.

Don’t forget to incorporate lighting, especially uplighting, which not only makes your home attractive at night but also takes away burglar friendly hiding spaces.

Mind you, there will be some areas that remain naturally lurkable so here’s what to do, plant a nasty shrub in that space.

Think of a prickly barberry or five-leaf aralia. It has been said that a barberry hedge is the only hedge that a cat won’t go through, let alone a big ol’ burglar. Fortunately, these plants are very decorative and easily fit into the landscape design.

There is always a practical side to gardening and today’s column looked at a less pleasant but very real facet of landscaping.

In partnership with

By Jack Evans

Entertainment - Belleville Marianne Ackerman, a native of Ameliasburgh Township, continues to make a name for herself as one of Canada’s most successful playwrights and writers.

As part of their Culture Days activities, the Belleville Theatre Guild arranged a special reading of one of her newest plays, Venus of Dublin, which the writer attended and provided a narrator role in the Pinnacle Playhouse Sunday evening.

A resident of Montreal in recent years, Ms. Ackerman has long been a fan and participant in live theatre and has several published and performed works in her resume.

Venus of Dublin is a tense story about a dissolute actor, Edmund Kean, played by Rick Zimmerman, an equally dissolute painter, Michael Rourke, played by Timothy Fransky and a young hotel proprietress seeking to avoid being cheated out of her

rental fees, Ginger Hogan, played by Heather Barker.

All three gave consummate performances in a gripping story about how a famous painting of real-life 19th century actor Kean, came to be.

Kean was a famous but controversial British actor who at one point in his career performed in Quebec and got involved with a nearby tribe of Huron Indians. This resulted in a strange portrait of him which hangs in London’s Garrick Club bedecked in ceremonial Huron chief robes. Ackerman used the painting as inspiration for a fictional time in Dublin as the three characters interact in a tense drama. Rourke has “painter’s block”; Kean becomes a souse and Hogan bemoans a husband who left her seven years earlier.

Ackerman remained in Belleville for the weekend to sign copies of her latest book, a collection of short stories, Holy Fools, at Chapters Book Store.
