Dalcon submittedthe lowest of four tenders at a cost of $2.75million.CPR is to cover 85 per cent of the overallcosts to a maximum of $2,025,885, leavingthe Counties share at approximately $700,000to $800,000 and including the Leeds Grenvilleshare of the design and construction administrationcost and contingency amounts.The Counties budget has provided for a totalof $1.3 million for the project.Regional cultural plan under considerationThe Leeds and Grenville joint servicescommittee has asked Counties staff to preparea report on the viability of a regional culturalplan.The request comes after a presentationthis week by Howard Alexander, a foundingmember of the newly-formed Brockville ArtsCouncil. Alexander is proposing a regionalplan involving all Leeds and Grenville municipalitiesas cultural activities are a tourismdraw and are a creator of economic development.A regional program will help market cultural,recreational, and sporting events, Mr.Alexander said. He noted more than half ofthe Brockville Arts Council members are fromthe area outside of the City of Brockville.Maple View Lodge arbitration awardThe United Counties of Leeds and Grenvilleand the Ontario Nurses Association receivedan arbitration award on May 15.The Ontario Nurses Association (ONA)represents the Registered Nurses at MapleView Lodge, who certified on July 29, 2010.Maple View Lodge, located in the Townshipof Athens, is a 60-bed facility owned by theUnited Counties of Leeds and Grenville.It employs three full-time, four part-time,and six casual staff members represented byONA.After extensive bargaining for a first collectiveagreement, the outstanding issues betweenthe parties went before an arbitrationboard as required by the Hospital LabourDisputes Arbitration Act. The term of the firstcollective agreement is from Aug. 17, 2010 toDec. 31, 2012.Counties council was advised that staff willbe meeting with ONA representatives to ensurean efficient implementation of the newcollective agreement. In addition, Councilwas advised to expect a significant impact onthe budget for Maple View Lodge as a resultof the arbitration award. A study of the fullfinancial impact is continuing.One of the requirements of a board of arbitrationis to take into consideration the employer’sability to pay, in light of its fiscalsituation. The United Counties also requestedthe board take into consideration a long heldview that a first contract award ought not tointroduce a collective agreement that wouldbe typical in a mature bargaining relationshipthat has taken numerous rounds of bargaining.It does not appear to the United Counties thatthe arbitration board took either of these twokey factors into account.Counties human resources manager, KristenArgue-Hobbs said the Counties values thecare provided by the Registered Nurses. However,the arbitration award is disappointing tothe United Counties taking into considerationthe current fiscal situation regarding MapleView Lodge.Maple View Lodge future options underreviewA Counties long-term care sub-committeehas recommended an in-depth review of futureoptions for the continued operations atMaple View Lodge.Chief administrative officer Andy Brownhas been asked to oversee an analysis andprepare a report by this September.

REGIONAL NEWSConnected to your communityHealing through horses with Lanark County Therapeutic Riding ProgramBy PAGE TAYLOREMC News – Have you ever wonderedhow a horse can help?Since 1986, the Lanark CountyTherapeutic Riding Program (LCTRP)has been enriching the lives of both humanand horse alike by providing specializedlessons for those with physicaland/or developmental disabilities. Theprogram, which celebrates its 27th anniversarythis year, offers rehabilitationand recreation for children and adultsfrom ages two to 70, with some of theolder riders having been with the programfor almost 20 years.Cedar Rock Farm, near Perth, runby owner Pat Nolan, is one of the twofarms in the region that offers lessons,the other being Willaway Farm nearCarleton Place.“Today, there are more one-on-onekids (pairings), so we have more volunteers.Ideally we need nine,” said MariaHofbauer, the riding instructor for bothfarms, during a lull between the horsesgetting brushed and tacked up and thekids starting to arrive during a recentvisit. Looking up at the bloated cloudslooming over the outdoor riding arena,Hofbauer confessed that this Wednesdaylesson may need to be put on hold.“The horses have to be very quietand people-tolerant,” she said. “But ifit thunderstorms, even these horses getuneasy.”Nickers from the four steeds nearbyseem to punctuate her statement. Thehorses, two decked out in English saddlesand two dressed in mere barebackpads, waited patiently beside volunteersfor their riders. Their names areas pleasant and friendly as they are –Monkey, Cricket, Ebony and Calabar.Out in the riding field, Jane Irwin, avolunteer with the LCTRP for close tosix years, set up a table with colorfulplastic toys and foam swords. Framingthe toy table, which stands in the centerof the field like the hub of a wheel, arepoles that protrude from the ground ina perfectly straight and evenly spacedline. Weave poles, as they are called,are used in a more relaxed version ofthe sport “pole-bending” where horsesduck in and out around them at a walkingpace.Balancing on top of the poles arelarge, plastic rings.“These are the rings that they pick upand we ask what color they are,” Irwinexplained. “The volunteers will hold upthe rings and they (the kids) have to getit with the sword.”She demonstrated by spearing thefoam sword through the ring. It maynot be jousting, but the activity is agreat way to practice balance and handeyecoordination, “which the little boysjust love,” Irwin chuckled.However, the program doesn’t aimto put the cart before the horse whenit comes to the physical benefits of thelessons. Improvement happens gradually,but when it does, it is a victory.“We had a little boy who couldn’t situp on his own, and was too impatient tolisten to stories. With the program, hisbalance improved and his parents sawhim at home sitting quietly and coloringand it’s pretty amazing,” Hofbauerexpressed.But the physical improvements arenot the only positive of the program.Another benefit that is gained throughtherapeutic riding is the self-assured airinstilled in humans that goes hand inhand with being around horses. It is oftensaid that horses can sense emotions,and that calm, purposeful movementsare needed to reassure the horse. Theriders build confidence with the freedomthat horseback riding offers.“We had another little boy whodidn’t speak, but after a few months,he would walk around his house saying‘Whoa Ebony, whoa Ebony,’ whichis what the volunteers were repeatingto the horse he was riding,” continuedHofbauer.As the kids start to arrive, the horseswere brought to the mounting blockand volunteers helped the riders ontothe horses. Bennet Kaslof, who hasbeen with the program for two years,was all smiles as he was set atop thedark mare Ebony.“It was a struggle at first, but nowhe gets excited when the time comes,”commented Bennet’s father, Larry Kazlof,as he watched the lesson with theother parents.“It’s so rewarding,” attested JaneIrwin in whispered awe from behindthe fence. “I’ve never seen Eila smilebefore.”Eila VanWingerden, riding astrideCricket, has been in the program forfive years, and has seen improvementsin her trunk control and balance.Despite the success and longevity ofthe LCTRP, Hofbauer noted that keepingit running can be difficult.“We have to apply for grants everyyear, and we are always looking forvolunteers and donations,” she said,going on to explain that Cedar RockFarm plans to build a walk-in-shelterfor the horses once the funds have beenacquired. Saddles are also required,among other equestrian equipment.Those interested in donating or volunteeringcan call 613-257-7121, ext.238, or visit the website therapeuticriding.cafor more information.Page Taylor is a cooperative educationstudent from St. John CatholicHigh School.Photo by PAGE TAYLORBennet Kozlof takes Ebony through the paces over a jump rail as he isaided by volunteers with the Lanark County Therapeutic Riding Program.Type 2?This means you.Consider a Clinical Study to Evaluatean Oral Investigational Drug forType 2 DiabetesWe are now enrolling adults who...

REGIONAL NEWSConnected to your communityHydro One helps save butternut trees in eastern OntarioEMC News – Two-thousand nativepure butternut seedlings are beingplanted across eastern Ontario thanksto a generous donation from HydroOne Networks Inc. (Hydro One).More than 99 per cent of eastern Ontariobutternut trees are infected withthis deadly, non-native, fungal disease.With no known cure for butternutcanker disease, the tree’s existenceis threatened across its entire naturalrange in North America and it is nowon the endangered species list.In 2006, the Rideau Valley ConservationAuthority (RVCA) startedthe Butternut Recovery StewardshipPlanting Program to find and collectseeds from healthy, native, pure butternuttrees. The seeds are then plantedand grown in hopes that some may benaturally resistant to the butternut cankerdisease. One-year-old butternutseedlings are distributed to participatinglandowners across eastern Ontarioto re-establish the population.“We are pleased to be able to contributeto the recovery of this importanttree species,” said Terry Forrest,eastern Ontario’s forest techniciansupervisor for Hydro One. “HydroOne is committed to preserving andprotecting this important species forfuture generations. By partnering withorganizations such as the RVCA andlocal landowners we can work togetherto achieve significant environmentalprojects throughout Ontario.”Rose Fleguel, RVCA butternut recoveryspecialist hopes these seedlingswill replace the dead and dying butternuts.“We have planted over 14,000butternut seedlings since 2006,” saysFleguel. “We hope the seedlings willgrow vigorously enough to reach seedbearing age and continue the existenceof the butternut tree.”It is unknown whether some butternuttrees have any resistance to thedisease, although some researchers believeit likely exists in some individualtrees.“It is an unknown as to whetherthese seedlings will be the key to savingthis beautiful tree,” says Fleguel.“But we can’t be idle — we need tostart the recovery process now.”Participating landowners help bymonitoring the trees, reporting backeach fall to track the over-all survivalof the seedlings each year.Submitted photoEMC Entertainment – Members of both the Carleton Place and District Community Band and the Perth Citizens’Band were among 75 band members from across Ontario that attended the Banding Together workshopsponsored by the Canadian Band Association on May 25 and 26 in Cornwall.

EDITORIALConnected to your communityLETTER TO THE EDITORReader says earlier pesticide letter lacks “substantiated evidence”DEAR EDITOR:Stew Hamill’s letter to the editor (May 30) concerning Jeff Maguire’searlier opinion piece on the pesticide ban lacks any substantiatedevidence and certainly contains no rational discussion or scientific authority.Hamill admits that everything he says to justify the ban is just opinionand speculative. Further, he suggests that toxic chemicals are a “leadingcandidate” in the death of birds and people, but surely the toxicity is theissue in a discussion of the ban. Asserting as fact that the chemical istoxic, in a debate as to whether the chemical is toxic, leaves little roomfor discussion.In fact, the academic research I’ve reviewed concerning 2-4,D overwhelmingdeclares it not a danger to humans or animals. Of course, inthe mind of Hamill and those like him – liberal progressives” I thinkthey’re called – it’s not open to discussion. “It’s for your own good, youEMC Lifestyle – “Woman, we havebeen eatin’ those on this here farm for ahundred years,” Father said to Mother.I could see Mother wasn’t impressed.“They’re weeds, Albert,” she said.“Plain and simple weeds.

It was hard to tell what wasgrass and what was dandelions.On the way to school that morning,I asked my much older and wiser sisterAudrey if she ever heard of anyone eatingdandelions. She said she had. Onceat her friend Iva’s house. She couldn’tremember what they tasted like.Now, it wasn’t unusual for Father towhip up a German meal. In fact, weall enjoyed what he cooked...all exceptfried blood pudding which I evenknow; chemicals bad, me good, so take it or leave it.” The tyrant indoctrinatesthe masses, through lies and half-truths, to achieve his owninterests, which of course are not saving birds or people, but control andpower. The masses, minions now mini-tyrants, follow willingly, believingthe tyrant’s interests are their interests. Nowhere is this more clearthan in modern environmental activism.“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims maybe the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons thanunder omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty maysometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but thosewho torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for theydo so with the approval of their consciences.” (C.S. Lewis)had trouble looking at when it came tothe table. When he fried sauerkraut, itnever tasted at all like the batch Motherwould make. Father would rinse it manytimes, put it in a fry pan with butter andchopped onions, and it wasn’t ready toeat until it had turned a golden brown.His German potato pancakes wereusually made on a Sunday night. The potatoeswere shredded, rinsed, squeezeddry, and then mixed with eggs and ofcourse, chopped onions. We kept himbusy at the Findlay Oval turning out hispancakes barely giving him time to eatthem himself, we loved them so much.Of course, they were well lathered withbutter and maple syrup too.And now it was dandelions. Well, Iwas with Mother on this one! I had nodesire to eat weeds that were pulled outof the front yard where goodness knowswhat animal had trampled all over them.No siree.That Saturday morning Father orderedthe boys to meet him in the yardwith their jack-knives. He was carryinga milk pail and got down on hisknees right in the middle of the yard,and showed the brothers how to dig upa dandelion, right down to, and includingthe root. It didn’t take long to fillthe milk pail.He hauled the pail over to the cementstep at the pump and filled it with water.He sloshed the dandelions aroundwith his arm in the pail up to his elbow,dumped the water out, and repeated theperformance. Mother was standing atthe kitchen door with her arms foldedacross her chest, as if defying Father tobring the weeds into the house.Well, that’s exactly what he intendedon doing. He laid out a spanking cleantea towel on the bake table, and shookwhat water he could off the dandelionsand laid them out flat, cutting off thelong roots. Then he folded the towelover the pile of weeds and patted it withhis flattened hand.What amazed me was that all theEMC News – Donna Mac-Donald from Carleton Place,left, Christopher Dresselt ofFranktown, Chey and DougLeitch of Carleton Place, TimHenderson from Almonteand Dany Cayen of CarletonPlace are all smiles at theRideau Carleton Raceway afterfinishing the Ride for DadJune 1.

He poured in a scant dipperof water, sprinkled in a handful ofsalt, and slid the pot to the front of theFindlay Oval. Then he went over to hisrocking chair, lit his pipe, crossed hislegs, and waited.The table had already been set fordinner...we always had dinner at noonhour...supper was what we had at night,and Mother had roast pork and potatoesin the oven. It looked very much likewe had a choice...either eat the dandelionsas a vegetable, or settle for slicedtomatoes and cucumbers.Father was certainly in charge of thebig pot, already boiling gently on thestove. Mother was having nothing todo with it. He tested the innards witha fork, and when they were done to hisliking, he poured the dandelions intothe sieve, pressed them down with thewood spoon, and plopped them into abig bowl.He took the wood spoon, dug it intothe butter dish, almost emptying it, andswirled it into the dandelions. He setthe bowl in the middle of the table, andwe all looked at it, no one daring to bethe first one to dig in.Emerson, the most daring of thelot of us, took his fork, and tested oneboiled leaf. I never took my eyes offhim. He rolled it around in his mouth,and reached out for the bowl, ladling aheaping pile on his plate. “Just as goodas your potato pancakes,” he said.Well, it didn’t take long for the restof us to take a small bite, which led tous piling the dandelions on our platesand even Mother, dared to taste a forkfull.It didn’t take long for Mother to admitthat the dandelions had a place onour dinner table. She did demand tooversee the washing of every last leaf,however.From that Saturday, like Father’s potatopancakes and fried sauerkraut, hisboiled dandelions often found their wayto our plates.She did however, draw the line oneating the fried roots. Father said shedidn’t know what she was missing. “I’lltake that chance,” Mother replied.65 Lorne St., P.O. Box 158,Smiths Falls, Ont.

REGIONAL NEWSFamily and Children’sServices of Lanark,Leeds and Grenvilleto receive awardEMC News – Family and Children’sServices of Lanark, Leedsand Grenville will receive a FireSafety Award from the Fire Marshal’sPublic Fire Safety Council ata ceremony on June 12 in Toronto.The annual Fire Safety Awardsrecognize outstanding contributionsto fire protection and preventionin Ontario.Rob Wittkie, a former volunteerfirefighter, and his wife KittyWittkie, an employee of Familyand Children’s Services of Lanark,Leeds and Grenville, are well awareof the importance of fire safetyto the lives of children. So muchso that in 2009, they approachedthe Lanark County fire chiefswith some ideas about making thehomes of vulnerable children saferfrom fire.To enhance safety, Wittkie andher supervisor, Pat Finnagan, developedthe following strategy toensure client homes were being protectedby working smoke alarms.When a caseworker visited a home,he/she would check for workingsmoke alarms. If there were none,the caseworker would supply them.If any major fire safety issues werenoted, the fire department would becontacted to follow up. The idea receivedthe fire chiefs’ enthusiasticsupport, and the program was underway.Since the inception of this initiative,381 smoke alarms and 96batteries have been distributed toclients of Family and Children’sServices in Lanark County.In 2011, Rob was called to testifyat the inquest into the deathsof a mother and two children in aToronto house fire.The Crown Attorney’s officewas aware of the Lanark Countyprogram and felt that, since the firevictims had been under the care ofthe Children’s Aid Society, it wouldbe of interest to the jury.As a result of those inquest recommendations,a provincial programinvolving Children’s AidSocieties across Ontario has beenimplemented.“The Family and Children’sServices of Lanark, Leeds andGrenville has been instrumental ingetting important life-saving informationto those who are sometimeshard to reach,” said Ted Wieclawek,Ontario Fire Marshal and chair ofthe Fire Marshal’s Public Fire SafetyCouncil.“Thanks to Family and Children’sServices of Lanark, Leedsand Grenville, hundreds of familiesin Lanark County are now protectedby working smoke alarms.”The Fire Marshal’s Public FireSafety Council gratefully acknowledgesthe support of its sponsors inthis event: Technical Standards andSafety Authority, The Co-operatorsGroup, Kidde Canada Inc., HomeDepot of Canada Inc., Proctor &Gamble Inc., Electrical SafetyAuthority, CSA Group, EnbridgeGas Distribution Inc., Roxul Inc.and Underwriters’ Laboratories ofCanada.this week in REAL755 River Road,KemptvilleThis waterfront property on theHeritage Rideau River System nearBurritt’s Rapids has space for everyonein the family.

REGIONAL NEWSConnected to your communitySmiths Falls fly-in breakfast busy despite weatherBy JOSEPH MORINjoe.morin@metroland.comEMC News – Despite the windy and off and on rain showers thatswept through the area on Sunday, the annual fly-in breakfast at theSmiths Falls Flying Club went off without a hitch.Organizers, according to the vice president of the club Bernie Scobie,have in the past, planned for at least a thousand visitors but theweather has the final say. “In the past,” said Scobie “we would havepilots from as far away as western Canada come for breakfast.”There were not many flyers enjoying weekend trips thanks to theweather but as usual the flying club had a full house of hungry visitorsfor breakfast who arrived by car. The breakfast has become a60-year tradition for the club.One pilot, Don Kugler from New Jersey made the trip up to SmithFalls for the breakfast. He set out from the Sky Manor airport beforethe weather became an issue. Sky Manor is located in Pittstown NewJeresy.“It is a small privately owned public use airport that myself and agroup of other pilots own,” explained Kugler.He comes up every year when he can and stays at his parent’s cottage.He lives in New Jersey and in Florida. This year it took Kugleronly an hour and forty-five minutes to make the trip which is 240nautical miles and more than 6 hours by car.Kugler flies a Vans RV-8. “It is a high performance custom builtairplane that I completed construction on in 2003,” said Kugler.

R0012141598_0606REGIONAL NEWSSmall museums offerwindow to local historyEMC Lifestyle – Museums havebeen high on my personal radar recently.So much so that I am movedto offer some thoughts about the rolemuseums play in the life of everycommunity that has one or more ofthese important institutions.I am a founding member of theRoy Brown Society in CarletonPlace which is dedicated to developinga full-fledged aviation museum.Carleton Place residents made a significantcontribution to the incrediblestory of flight. Most prominentamong them is Captain Arthur RoyBrown. He is the First World Warflying ace who shot down Germany’sBaron Manfred von Richthofenon April 21, 1918 during a dogfightin the sky above war ravagedFrance. Richthofen, later nicknamed‘The Red Baron’, was the highestscoring airman of World War I with80 victories to his credit.The first phase of what, hopefully,will be an even larger museum,is now open in historic MooreHouse located opposite the CarletonPlace Town Hall. The initial displays,most of which are dedicatedto Brown and 14 other World War Ipilots from Carleton Place, are nowavailable for public viewing on Fridayand Saturday afternoons.I took a shift at Moore House Fridayon behalf of the society. It wasvery quiet because word is not yetout that the museum is open to thegeneral public.The photographs and artifacts oursmall group has compiled to date arefascinating. They offer insight into alocal story which, surprisingly, hasachieved very little recognition heresince the fateful aerial showdownbetween Brown and Richthofen 95years ago.The Brown-Richthofen saga is farbetter known internationally than itis in Canada.

It ispainted on the side of the buildingwhich houses the offices of local MPScott Reid and MPP Randy Hillier atthe intersection of Bridge and HighStreets. That’s on the opposite sideof the Central Bridge from MooreHouse.Local museums, such as the fledglingRoy Brown facility, are a windowto the communities they serve.Through displays of all kinds theyoffer visitors an opportunity to tracethe history of the community and thedistrict to which they are dedicated.Two years ago we visited Germanyand France in the company ofour friends and regular travel companionsFrank and Wendy LeBlanc.During his military career Frankspent 11 years criss-crossing Germanyas a member of the Royal CanadianCorps of Signals.

An affable,elderly gentleman welcomedus. He and Frank, who is fluentin German, were soon engagedin conversation.All four of us were fascinatedby the little Steinach museumwhich is filled with manyexcavated artifacts including alarge collection of arrow headsand weapons (among themwere numerous hand fashionedknives and small tools) frompast civilizations.Our guide directed us to thebasement, a rather musty smellingplace. It contained manymore interesting objects fromthe history of the communityand the region.The visit left us wantingmore and we found that in thenumerous centres, large andsmall, we toured during our 10-day stay.That’s the thing about localmuseums. They provide snapshots(often literally) of thecommunities they serve, givingvisitors an introduction to thedistrict and the country they areexploring.It is no different here. I amsure the local museum whereyou live has a great deal to offer.Unfortunately most peopletend to ignore some of the wonderfulplaces and opportunitiesavailable in their own communities.Small museums struggleto attract an audience. That’s ashame because so much hardwork goes into the displays andthe information available is incrediblyinteresting and important.On May 17 my wife Kathleenand I attended the openingof the Carleton Place and BeckwithHeritage Museum’s 2013exhibit. The museum is locatedin the former Victoria School,the same place where one RoyBrown attended classes whenhe was a lad growing up in CarletonPlace.This year’s exhibit is entitled‘Traveling Through Time.’ It’san ingenious way of promoting,not time travel, but ratherhow Canadians, and specificallypeople in our district, gotaround over the years.From a photo of the steamerwhich once plied the waters ofthe Mississippi River and lakes,to a look at the first motor vehicleshere, to souvenirs of thetaxis and the buses (do youremember Colonial Coach?)which once served the area,the display offers intriguingglimpses of how the transportationnetwork developed locally.In winter horses and cutters,skis, snowshoes and evenskates were among the modesof transport favoured by many.There’s also a look at howtraveling salespeople impactedthe economy as well as informationon the service stations(local garages) which were soSee our flyer in today’s paper*important before the arrival ofmajor automotive dealerships.I spent a lot of time viewinginformation, documents andphotos in a cabinet dedicated tothe late George Doucett (1896-1974). Besides operating hiswell-known insurance businesshe also served as both the MPPand MP for this district. Doucettspent 20 years in the provincialLegislature including serving asthe Ontario Minister of Highways.Among his many accomplishmentswas overseeing thedevelopment of Highway 400,a major provincial artery whichruns north from Toronto.Among the transportationartifacts on display is an oldwooden spoke wheel.

LOCAL NEWSParrot aviary plans in motion for 2013 openingBy STACEY ROYsroy@perfprint.caEMC News - Polly wants an outdooraviary and thanks to a $5,000 grant fromIntuit, the animals of Parrot Partner atthe Gallipeau Centre are closer thanever to their goal.“I’m thrilled,” remarked JudyTennant, lead trainer at Parrot Partnerupon hearing of the grant application’ssuccess.Intuit’s Love Our Local Businessgrant represents half of the fundsneeded to complete the outdoor andindoor aviary space for Parrot Partnersin their new Smiths Falls home. In thenext couple of weeks the non-profitorganization will launch an onlinevoting campaign in hopes of addinganother $5,000 to the project’s budget.“It’s an exciting time,” Tennantsaid.The funds will help to completeboth bird spaces while providing anest egg to cover immediate and futureveterinary bills. Tennant explainsbecause parrots can live up to 80 yearstheir health care often becomes quitecomplex and expensive with only oneavian vet in the region available fortheir care. Many times when the healthof birds fails owners find they simplycan’t cover the care costs.This is when the birds are releasedinto the wild or a place like ParrotPartner comes in to provide the careand love needed.“We’re creating a community of carearound the parrots,” Tennant said.She hopes this community of carewill include the active seniors whowill one day make their home at theGallipeau Centre. The new facility willwelcome visitors to go into the aviaryand interact with the birds as well asview them from outside the securitymesh. Parrot Partner is looking toRELAYFrom front pageGifford said the inaugural year for thefundraiser exceeded the cancer society’sexpectations. She hopes residents fromAlmonte, Carleton Place and Pakenhamwill come out to support the effort.BUILDINGFrom front pageThe loss of the grant funding andthe possible delay into another yearwas not palatable around the horseshoeand council approved the $40,000 outof-budgetexpense and awarded thecontract to JA Gallipeau Constructionfor $141,885.06. The local builder wasone of two tenders received. The secondcame from Guy Saumure & Sonsdevelop partnerships with all currentand future centre tenants including TheHub.Tennant said in order for everyone tosucceed they will have to work togetherto offer unique packages that willattract tourists from Toronto, Kingstonand other major centres.“It’s a challenge but I think we’re upfor it,” she said.Tennant is currently looking at designplans with JA Gallipeau Constructionwho will complete the work. Intuitcongratulated Parrot Partner for beingthe only Canadian entry to successfullyreceive funding and to win in such abig way this round.“We’d like to congratulate ParrotPartner for the win, and we also like tothank all those in the community whoparticipated in the program by votingfor and sharing Parrot Partner’s wish,”said Stephen Sharpe, Intuit Canadaspokesperson.“The great thing about the Love OurLocal Business program is that it showshow valuable small businesses are tothe local community.Judy’s wish for Parrot Partner wassuccessful because it was compelling,inspiring, and something the wholecommunity could really get behind.”The local project shot to the top ofthe voting charts with a final count ofover 14,000 online votes.The next closest competitor in thisyear’s race came in at 8,521 votes.Sharpe confirmed Parrot Partner’ssuccess breaks the record for anyCanadian winner.Tennant admitted she went intothe competition with a game plan ofreaching out to the organizations withlarge email lists and struck gold withbike clubs and religious organizationswho urged their members to vote forthe project virtually every day.“We had a woman, Allison Vaughan,approach us and she loved the Relay forLife and participated in it in Ottawa. Shewanted to bring it home to Almonte,” sheexplained. “...And that first year blew usright out of the water!”Construction for $178, 343.12. Councilhad budgeted $135, 313 this year forthe project, but demolition ran about$30,000 leaving roughly $100,000remaining for the new Murphy Buildingto be built.Coun. Ken Graham noted the townwas able to salvage quite a bit ofbuilding material from the demolitionthat it hoped would bring down the cost“It was actually the bikers and thenuns (who) came through for us,”Tennant said.Once this was completed, the grouptargeted international animal activistsand explained why parrots neededtheir support among any in the animalkingdom.“We had votes coming in from(around) the world,” Tennant said.Undertaking such an onlinecampaign is hard work and somethingof an emotional roller coaster forTennant whose heart has always beenwith the birds and what they need.Parrots’ intellectual ability makes itcritical that they have opportunitiesto interact with humans and othercreatures, while their physical makeupmakes flight a necessity.Tennant sees her new home at theGallipeau Centre as a solution onboth fronts by providing an outdoorand indoor home for her friends.Plans also include renting out thegym on occasion to offer bird flightdemonstrations where the animals gettheir exercise and spectators can seethem in action for a small donation.As work on the aviary continues,Tennant is also looking to build upher program in anticipation of morebirthday parties and visitor exposure.She welcomes any adult who mightbe interested in a part-time job as alead trainer to contact her at www.parrotpartner.com or 613-253-2253.The organization also welcomesyouth trainers for their Parrot Trooperprogram.Those aged 13 and up are urged toapply.

Also, a good deal of the constructionwork was completed by thesevolunteers who used a wide variety ofprevious work and life experience tocontribute to the theatre’s development.Housed in the former CPR stationbuilt in 1887, the location was already animportant part of the history of the Townof Smiths Falls. At one time, SmithsFalls was a major railway hub betweenMontreal and Toronto. Many citizens ofSmiths Falls can claim to have relativeswho were employed by the CPR.The story of the amazing transformationof the railway station at 53 VictoriaAve. into the Station Theatre beganin 1999 when the CPR indicated to thetown that the deteriorating buildingwould be demolished and replaced witha smaller structure for VIA passengers.The local theatre group stepped forwardwith an inventive plan to renovate thebuilding and create a 140-seat theatre.Through the generous donations of localresidents, as well as major financialcontributions from the Town of SmithsFalls, the province of Ontario and corporatesponsors, the building was transformedinto a beautiful performancespace, which incorporates the history ofthe railway and the excitement of a theatricalvenue.As soon as you enter the lobby youwill be awestruck not only by its transformationfrom a railway station, but theuniqueness of the architectural design,which itself is akin to a performancespace that is the envy of small communitiesacross the province. Many whovisit comment saying, “you could puton a play right here in the lobby”. Totruly appreciate what the Station Theatrehas to offer, both architecturally andin terms of performance space, one mustsee it. Since opening, the theatre hashoused a wide variety of performances,as well as non-theatre uses such as corporateevents as it is now fully equippedwith WIFI, a projector and large screen.It has even hosted weddings.Along with viewing the amazingstructural changes that have taken placeNo self-risingflour inthe house?Make yourown by adding1-1/2 teaspoonsof bakingpowder and 1/2teaspoon ofsalt toevery cup ofregular flour.When using thissubstitute, omitthe saltand bakingpowder calledfor in the recipe.in this 125-year-old building, those whopass through the doors of the StationTheatre on June 9 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.will be able to take in some amazing entertainment,in addition to seeing howthe “inside” of a theatre works.

It’s the first time thisevent will be held at the high school. Formerly,it was held at the Lombardy fairgrounds.The idea behind the move was to get morepeople involved – open it up to more people,raise more money. Maybe that’s why the themethis year is “Groovin’ for a Cure.” It will makefor some interesting costumes.When I was at St. John Catholic HighSchool in Perth recently for their all-nightevent, it was the first time that I was that closeto it. I wasn’t actually participating, I was theretaking photos for the newspaper.It was humbling watching the parade of survivorscoming out of the school and walkingthrough the throngs of participants who linedthe pathway to the track where the walk tookplace.There wasn’t a dry eye in the school yard.It was even more moving when one studenttold her personal story about losing her fatherto cancer just a month before the event. Thiswas a reason for her participating this year.It seems that every time you turn aroundthere is someone you know who is being diagnosedwith cancer of some form or another.My aunt, who lives in Newboro, has a gaggleof kids (five children, all married with atleast two children of their own) and she calledall the female cousins and sisters-in-law to herLAURIEWEIRWeir Viewhome for a brunch on Sunday. It was a day justfor gals... my dad’s sisters: three of them, andtheir daughters (three more of us), along withher four own girls and their three daughters, alldescended on the porch for a great afternoon oflaughs and memories - oh and great food.We had one token male at the party - myaunt’s oldest son, who, along with his wife,were also present. He had no idea that the henparty was taking place, but was a welcomed addition,nonetheless. He was home for a visit.It was our chance to see one of our cousinswho was home from the west coast whereshe’s been undergoing breast cancer treatments.She’s been through chemo and starts radiationthis week. She’s lost all her hair, but not herspunk. Her personality shines through.She wore a funky, orange-beaded shirt, andsaid she hoped that it would distract from thebald head.“Bald is beautiful,” I told her. “That’s myfavourite haircut for a dude.”We laughed, just like old times. Her smilestill radiates, and her positive attitude has nodoubt, some bearing on her prognosis... whichis good, she assured us.My other cousin, who lives about an hourand-a-halfwest of me, has successfully beatencolon cancer. She is returning to work thismonth.“It’s been a really long year,” she said.“It’s actually brought us (her immediate family)closer together. My husband has been myrock... so has Mom.”I learned at our girl-power brunch that ourmale cousin had also successfully beaten thyroidcancer a few years ago.Two other women of our family have alsosurvived cancer treatments.Of the 16 of us around that dining roomtable, five - that I know about - have had theirown personal battles with cancer.What is even more remarkable, is that noone smokes, drinks excessively or is into drugs.All of the mentioned people of my family whohave had cancer or are currently fighting it, eathealthy diets and exercise regularly.Cancer affects us all, regardless of race, age,sex, or lifestyle.Friday night, when the track is alight withluminaries, and the survivors appear for theirvictory lap, I’ll say a silent prayer for all thosewho are fighting this godforsaken battle.Thanks to those who take part in this event,and to those who sponsor, donate money, cuttheir hair, have extra fundraisers all in the nameof life - Relay for Life.

OnThursday night, Halladay rectified thatsituation with the unveiling of “ThePrincipals of Rideau” recognitionwall, appropriately located in the mainhallway beside the school office.“This school is all about communitypride and it has a history of achievement,”said Halladay. “After tonight, theprincipals of Rideau will be celebratedas part of that history.”The new “principal wall” honours thecareers of all the leaders at Rideau fromColin McLeod, who served as the firstschool principal from 1960 – 1964, toGratton who led RDHS from 1976 to1985 and Halladay herself, who tookover in 2010.Principals who showed up for theceremony to pose by the wall wereGratton, Ross Henniger, Mary Begg,and Ian Carswell, current associatedirector of the Upper Canada DistrictSchool Board.A highlight of the night was whenMcLeod’s widow Isobel cut theceremonial cake during a small receptionfollowing the unveiling.Submitted by the UCDSB.Tired of sitting athome looking outthe window?Read Regional Round-upand EMC ads every weekfor entertainment ideas.THE EMC - SF14 - Thursday, June 6, 2013worked hard to establish two local bookreading clubs and one in Nepean beforepassing away from cancer last winter.Foulkes thanked the library forhonouring his wife, saying the renamingwill be a reminder to Pat’s children andgrandchildren about the kind of womanshe was.In a press release, the library boardnoted they are extremely grateful for thedonations, in memory of Patricia, thathave been made to this program.“Patricia would be proud that herwork at the library will continue forgenerations to come.

Second from the right is Turner Onion who beat the 2007 class record this year.High school athlete breaks marathon course recordBy STACEY ROYsroy@perfprint.caEMC Sports - Turner Onion knows the pleasureof reaching your goals having recentlysmashed the Smiths Falls District CollegiateInstitute Marathon Course record. He is nowstriving towards future ambitions while helpinghis peers reach the finish line in the future.Ottawa Race Weekend is the final exam forthe students of this grueling, fitness and nutritionclass that runs every other year at SFDCI.The credit course is relatively new in this region,as only a few other schools in the provinceoffer it, said Dan Dufort, the teacher atSFDCI who implemented it.“I knew Turner would do well as he is a verygood athlete,” said Dufort.The Grade 12 student was one of about 20young people from the local high school coursewho took part in the May 26, 2013 half marathonrun in Ottawa alongside more than 11,000weekend race participants.Onion said racing in such a supportive environmentreally kept his energy up when hegot tired.“I was actually really, really hyper. It’s likerunning with all of Smiths Falls,” Onion said.He placed 271st among the 11,692 participantswith an impressive time of 1:29:40.“That’s fantastic,” remarked Dufort. “He didreally, really well.”Onion thanks his fellow course mates, DillonDrover (1:31:10) and Garrett Closs (1:33:23)for keeping him on his toes and challenginghim throughout the course and on race day toobtain his objective. Onion’s accomplishmenthas drawn the attention of other future courseparticipants who have approached Onion forhis training secrets. Onion was pleased to givethem a copy of his training program and encouragesanyone interested in taking on a halfmarathon to train really hard and not to missa day.“If they beat me that’d be great,” Onionsaid.The senior student entered the four-monthprogram for the first time this past Februarywith one goal in mind: to beat Joe Smith’s 2007class record of 1:30:25. In the end, Onion wasable to achieve this goal.Onion credits his determination to train everyday for the half marathon as well as hisexisting exercise program as part of a competitivebasketball team in Kingston as part of hiswinning formula. Often, the young man wouldcomplete his training in the marathon courseonly to play basketball that night for anothertwo hours.“I feel like I had an extra step,” Onion said.He like many of the participating students,really enjoyed the training opportunities thecourse provided.Dufort said he envisioned the course in 2005after training and competing in Ottawa’s halfmarathon himself. Working with the schoolboard he was able to develop the course withthe objective of encouraging physical fitness inteenaged students. The four-month program offersa variety of learning opportunities from nutritionalinformation to yoga classes, endurancetraining and, new this year, cross fit training.“It’s a different way of training and theyloved it,” Dufort said. “Everyone passed… weeven had two girls take the course this year.”This new addition to the training programcame about in much the same way as the creationof the course itself - Dufort’s personalexperience. Last year Dufort was introduced tocross fit training and thought the ability to useyour own body weight to train would add somebenefits for his students.Onion thanked Dufort for his continuedsupport in helping him succeed so well in themarathon course, including allowing him to reschedulenecessary training runs and volunteeringhis personal time to make that happen. Abasketball tournament kept Onion away fromhis 18.5 km training run, but Mr. Dufort wasable to reschedule it for him and actively participatedin supporting Onion to the end.“Mr. Dufort biked beside me and gave mewater when I needed it,” Onion said.The local teacher was pleased to report hehad 100 per cent completion rate in the halfmarathon again this term. The students’ markshave nothing to do with their marathon times,but are based on their commitment to attendingclass and their training schedule.This year Dufort trained with his studentsbut sat out in the race so he could be there tocheer them on as each one crossed the finishline. “For me, the smile on their face . . . isworth 100 bucks,” Dufort said.Race dayThe day of the race came quickly for participants.As a first-time participant, Onion waspleased to see the level of support all bystandersshowed for every race participant. When thecourse got tough and he wanted to sit down andrest, it was the cheers and banners of supportersthat kept him going.In the final leg of the race Onion was approachedby the 1:30 bunny: a runner who isguaranteed to complete the course in 1 hour30 minutes. The bunny-eared racer kept closebehind Onion’s shoulder for quite some timebefore one-to-two kms before the finish lineOnion dug deep and attempted to sprint to thefinish line.“I just took off,” he recalls.The race clock high above the finish linetold Onion the moment he crossed that he hadreached his four-month target and smashedSmith’s 2007 record.“I just had the biggest smile on my face,”he said.The senior student is one of six students Mr.Dufort has spoken with from the course whoplan to use what they’ve learned in his courseto compete in the 2014 Ottawa race May 24-25.“My ultimate goal will be to do Boston,”Onion said.First he will take part in this year’s SmithsFalls triathlon, taking place at the far end ofLower Reach Park June 22. His next step willbe to participate in a couple more half marathonsin the lead up to next year’s Ottawa raceweekend where he will challenge the full marathonin hopes of qualifying for Boston.Elder Abuse...Let’s TalkWe Can HelpR0012135530_0606TOLL FREE1-855-542-1336ELDER ABUSEPREVENTIONSUPPORT LINECompletely ConfidentialR0011966542_tfR0012134897

Just don’t call the upcomingseason a rebuilding year for the Smiths FallsJr. A Bears.Despite graduating seven players to NCAADivision I schools, another to the USHL andtwo more to Canadian universities, the Bearshave a strong nucleus returning in the fall andwill expect to compete for the Central CanadaHockey League title in 2013-14.That was the message delivered by headcoach Mark Grady to 11 of the 12 youngmen selected or protected by the club at lastThursday’s CCHL entry draft in Ottawa. Heand the Bears staff welcomed the players andtheir parents at the club’s impressive trainingfacility at the Memorial Community CentreMonday afternoon.It was an opportunity to address everyonein one venue and answer any questions theymight have leading up to their first Jr. A trainingcamp in August. Everything was covered fromacademics to equipment, practice schedules tobilleting.In all the Bears protected two bantam-agedplayers – Sam Meisenheimer and MatthewDods – and made 10 picks in the 10-rounddraft, held at the Earl Armstrong Arena inGloucester.Bears general manager Hugh Craig saysthe club didn’t have a first round pick, havingtraded it away in an earlier transaction. But withthe top player on their list still available late inthe round, they made a trade with Gloucesterto move up.“We were very excited to get him,” Craigsaid of Jackson Goudie, a 15 year-old Stittsvilleresident who played this past season with themajor bantam Ottawa Valley Titans.For his part, the 5-9, 147-lb. forward sayshe is pleased to come to a quality organizationthat’s not too far from home.The left winger says he plays a tough brandof hockey. “I like to get people off their game,”he said.After a strong first half to his season,he admits the second half was not quite assuccessful, and he’s looking to build off theyear that saw him collect 13 goals, 25 assistsand 54 penalty minutes in just 25 regularseason games.Joining him on a future Bears’ roster willbe Titans teammate Sam Meisenheimer. Hisnumbers are no less impressive with 14 goalsand 15 assists last season. He then addedanother four goals and eights assists in 11playoff games.The young centreman sees himself as “atwo-way forward.” Also from Stittsville, hesays he’s also happy to be with the Bears andaims to improve as a player and student in thecoming year.Photo by RYLAND COYNENewest Bears enter DenThe newest members of the Smiths Falls Bears family were given a tour of the club’simpressive training facility at the Memorial Community Centre on Monday, June 3.Back row (left to right) are Alyn McLellan, Troy MacTavish, Tyler Wicks, Alex Kealey,Jack Rouleau and Jordan Renaud.

Oneway or another, we have one. It may benext room, next door, or next province.We may get along, we may bicker, wemay be estranged from them. Or theymay have passed on. But we all have,or have had, family at one point in ourlives.Studio Theatre’s final production ofthe season, ‘Proof’ by David Auburnis a story about a family in a situationthat is becoming increasingly common:a child becoming the caregiver ofan aging parent. Says director JeremyDutton, “More and more there are familieswho are going through this. Especiallyas money goes down for those incharge of ill people. As the populationages, well sorry folks we need morecare especially if we’re sick.”Catherine is the daughter of a brilliantmathematician who has lapsedinto insanity. She has given up a promisingcareer to care for her ailing father,and now she fears that she may bedeveloping the same affliction. Claire,her sister, who arrives to help out, onlymakes the situation worse by takingover and making Catherine feel evenmore inadequate. To further add to theproblem, she suspects Hal, a young studentwho was working with her father,of stealing a long-sought after mathematicalformula from her father’s papers.The story is filled with surprisingtwists and revelations as we learn moreabout Catherine and her family.‘Proof’ features four of the areasmost accomplished actors. The roleof Catherine is played by Mary AnnMajoury who appeared as the youngimpressionable nun in ‘Doubt: A Parable’.Catharine Coleman of StationTheatre in Smiths Falls is her sisterClaire.Hal, the young math student isplayed by Lucas Tennant, a young manwho is well-known to Studio Theatreregulars.

As Tennantso succinctly puts it “It is a brilliantstory about families and relationships,about trying to care for people whohave been taking care of you. It’s rolereversal.

REGIONAL NEWSConnected to your communityStellar Canadian casts at upcoming Classic Theatre FestivalEMC Entertainment – From July12 to Sept. 1, the fourth season ofprofessional summer theatre inPerth, courtesy of the Classic TheatreFestival, features a variety ofreturning talent along with newfaces who have graced stages acrossthe country, in addition to considerablefilm, television and radio work.Early bird tickets are on sale untilJune 8, guaranteeing discountedtickets with the option of choosingdates later.Director Laurel Smith, who willhelm the comedic productions ofNeil Simon’s ‘The Star-SpangledGirl’ and Leslie Stevens’ ‘The Marriage-Go-Round’,is pleased withthe star power she has assembledthis summer to work alongside Ottawaset and lighting designer DavidMagladry, Mississippi Millscostume designer Renate Seiler, andlocal production manager NolanPopplewell.‘The Star-Spangled Girl’ (July 12to Aug. 4) could have been drawnfrom today’s headlines about the redstate/blue state divide that currentlyanimates much of the U.S. politicalculture. Simon, looking at a similarlypolarized America in 1966, createdthe story of two free-thinkingliberal magazine writers who fallfor a conservative southern belleand Olympic swimmer who’s aboutto marry a U.S. Marine.The “girl,” in this instance, isplayed by Kate Gordon, a regularat Upper Canada Playhouse whoreturns to the festival for a secondseason following her memorableturn as Gittel Mosca in last season’s‘Two for the Seesaw’. Gordon’scomic chops will be on full displayas she fends off the attentions of Ottawa’sRichard Gélinas, a celebratedveteran of the National Capital theatrescene (‘The 39 Steps’, ‘Stonesin His Pockets’, ‘Cyrano de Bergerac’,‘Eddie May Mysteries’), andTrevor Pease, who divides his timebetween TV and film (‘Nikita’, ‘Cybergeddon’)and stage (Upper CanadaRepertory Company, TheatreNew Brunswick, among others).“Simon is known for his sparklingdialogue, hilarious plots and lovablecharacters. ‘The Star-Spangled Girl’reflects the theme you see in a lotof his plays of opposites who attractbut who also have to work throughtheir differences to get along, justlike the sloppy/neat freak roles in‘The Odd Couple’ and the snarkyvaudeville veterans in ‘The SunshineBoys’,” says Smith.‘The Marriage-Go-Round’ (Aug.9 to Sept. 1) caused some stir onBroadway as it featured a happilymarried, brilliant academiccouple (one of whom is the Deanof Women) whose lives are turnedupside down by a Swedish blondebombshell who wants the husbandto father her baby so that the childinherits both beauty and brains. Thecouple is played by Scott Clarkson(who has previously performedcritically acclaimed star turns in thefestival’s productions of ‘The Fourposter’and ‘Two for the Seesaw’)Submitted photosThe Classic Theatre Festival in Perth, which runs from July 12 to Sept. 1has an impressive cast of Canadian actors set to visit town this summer.Above, Rachel Jones is back again this year after her unforgettable performanceof the title role in last summer’s ‘Mary, Mary’.

I bought it from myuncle for 20 bucks in 1966. It wasa rust bucket and had a 223 cubicinch six cylinder that was knockingits brains out, but I loved the beautifulnew set of green and white vinylseat covers it had.“One night, me and a few of mybuddies were going to a local danceand the whole trunk floor fell out,complete with gas tank.We put a 5-gallon pail on the backseat and relieved my dad of about10 feet of his acetylene hose, whichwe ran from the pail to the fuel line.Only problem, after about 10 minutes,the gas would soften the hoseand it would collapse, causing theold Ford to starve for fuel.“I would yell out to one of mybuddies in the back seat to pull thehose from the can and blow in it ashard as they could.That would open the hose longenough to give us another 10 minutesof fuel. However, it got us tothe dance and back. Like I said,those were the days.“I forgot to mention that when thetrunk floor let go, it took not onlythe gas tank but also the spare tire,bumper jack, and lug wrench. Wehad to leave those in the bushesbecause there wasn’t anywhere wecould put them with five guys goingto the dance.“The trunk floor was full of holeswhen I bought the Ford. At that time(1966), we still had a lot of unpavedgravel roads so when driving the oldFord (of course right at the speedlimit), the dust would enter throughthe holes in the floor and completelyfill the inside of the car.Before leaving to go out at night,I would go to a nearby stream andsoak a blanket with water, thenspread it out over the trunk floor.This helped greatly with keepingthe dust out but I guess it also addedto the demise of the floor.”Lionel has fond memories of hisdad’s 1938 Mack pickup truck.

Among otherthings, individual and smallbusiness consumers will beable to:• Terminate their wirelesscontracts after two yearswithout cancellation fees,even if they have signed onfor a longer term.• Cap extra data charges at$50/month and internationaldata roaming charges at $100/month to prevent bill shock.• Have their cellphonesunlocked after 90 days, or immediatelyif they paid for thedevice in full.• Return their cellphones,within 15 days and specificusage limits, if they are unhappywith their service.• Accept or decline changesto the key terms of a fixedtermcontract (i.e., two-year).• Receive a contract that iseasy to read and understand.The wireless code willapply to all service providersin Canada. In particular,the code will apply in full topostpaid services (where customerspay a monthly bill afterusing their services), andwhere applicable to pre-paidwireless services.“The wireless code is atool that will empower consumersand help them makeinformed choices about theservice options that best meettheir needs. To make themost of this tool, consumersalso have a responsibility toeducate themselves,” Blaisadded.The participation of a largenumber of consumers and thecollaboration of the wirelessImagine talking toall the people in500,000 +householdsat once!Connected to your communityindustry will ensure the wirelesscode’s successful implementation.For more information,please visit www.crtc.gc.ca/wirelesscode.PARK IT!Leave your carat home fora day, week ora month!Try walking orbiking.

Now, either by coincidence orthrough strategic timing (you guess which) oneinsurance firm is announcing an Ontario roll-outof their voluntary driver self-monitoring programto provide some substantial discounts tothose hit by premium sticker-shock (that’s justabout all of us).This monitoring, which has been establishedin the Europe and the U.S. for a few years now,is currently in use in Quebec and under considerationin Alberta. It will be offered in Ontarioby Desjardins Insurance (look for more companiesto follow). It involves the use of a vehicledata recorder that is plugged into the auto’s onboardcomputer diagnostic port (usually foundunder the left side of the dash).On a regular basis, the insured driver is requiredto upload the info stored on the recorderto his/her insurance company via a cabled connectionto a home PC or wirelessly through asmart phone. The company will review suchdata as maximum speed, aggressive accelerationor braking, and distance travelled for starters.The Desjardins system will also have the capabilityof tracking and recording destinationsand routes taken through GPS with date-stamping.Good driving behaviour can earn you lowerpremiums (the maximum figure of 25 per centhas been touted by Desjardins).Users will have access to a secure websiteto bring up a dashboard display of their drivingrecords which, according to Desjardins, will allowthem to adjust their driving habits if theyCar CounsellorBRIAN TURNERrecognize problems. In the event of a collision,this information may be obtained through legalchannels and used against you and that’s abringing a warning being sounded by privacyprotectiongroups.Desjardins is rushing to insure their clientsthat the information they collect in this voluntaryprogram will not be given to third-partygroups but they won’t be able to deny accessprovided through legal search warrants or courtseizure orders.Most vehicles today have the computer hardwareand software to collect and store such dataand much more built into engine, transmission,and body controllers and even some have a factory-installeddedicated flight recorder module.A recent high-profile collision that resulted inthe death of an area driver saw some of this evidencepresented in criminal court. Experiencein the U.S. is showing that the carrot of lowerinsurance premiums is drawing a lot of customersand Desjardins expects the same on this sideof the border.Like with anything regarding insurance, youneed to understand risks and your comfort ordiscomfort with them. If you don’t mind givingup some privacy in exchange for cash andyou feel your lifestyle doesn’t represent thetype police or legal types would be interestedin, then this may be for you. If you have severalfamily members on your policy and youhave concerns about their driving habits, thiswould be a convenient way of monitoring theirwheeled behaviour.Cruise-ins and show and shines are in fullswing.

Clearly moved by their lifechanging,profound experiences, thegroup gave an emotional and heartfeltaccount of their time in Guatemala, andhow they were particularly moved bythe children at the Nuestros PequenosHermanos (NPH) Orphanage.Forty students, along with tensupervisors, from seven secondaryschools, participated in the experience.Upon their arrival, the group travelledimmediately to the NPH Orphanagein San Andres, approximately onehour from Guatemala City. Working atthe orphanage is truly the core of theGuatemala Mission Trip experience.Here, the group stayed for six days,assisting with construction projects,gardening, helping in the kitchen, andworking at Castillo Magico, a home fororphans with special needs. After-workactivities at the orphanage includedSpanish lessons, dancing, a visit to thenearby village of Parramos, and lots ofinteraction with the children.Participants then left the orphanageand visited the lakeside resort townof Panajachel, had a guided tour ofa Mayan village and visited a localmarket. On day ten, participants had aguided tour of Antigua, the old colonialcapital, and enjoyed a group dinnerat a local restaurant. This specialevening was an opportunity to reflectupon and discuss the experiences theyencountered throughout their time inGuatemala.The trip provided students withthe opportunity to make a differencein a global community, and manycommented on how they now feelcompelled to contribute more locally,in their own communities. Studentsalso noted how they have come torealize the importance of family, aswell as how they now have a betterunderstanding of poverty.St. Michael Catholic High School(CHS) teacher, Mary-Kate Bridson,who travelled with the students,remarked, “This trip is just soworthwhile and unique. The studentswere able to immerse themselves in theNPH family. We saw the sadness, butwe also saw the possibility for hope.”The students presented the boardwith a hand-painted card, as well as apurple woven cloth, in recognition oftheir support of the mission. The cloth,which will be used as an altar cloth inthe Advent and Lenten seasons, waspurchased in a women’s cooperativein Guatemala, and has been blessed byboard chaplain, Father John Whyte.Catholic Education WeekThroughout Catholic EducationWeek, CDSBEO schools shone a greatlight on the ways in which the OntarioCatholic School Graduate Expectationsare being met throughout the system.The week began by highlightingthat students and staff are discerningbelievers formed in the Catholic faith,through the celebration of the annualCatholic Education Week Mass,presided by Archbishop BrendanO’Brien.
