PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE<br />
As we leave the balmy<br />
days of summer and<br />
experience the<br />
pleasing Fall colours,<br />
our dutiful Executive<br />
moves to full<br />
operational mode,<br />
planning many <strong>new</strong><br />
exciting activities for<br />
our <strong>members</strong>hip. It is<br />
a pleasure on behalf of<br />
our Executive to welcome our <strong>new</strong> retirees.<br />
We must also thank all present and <strong>new</strong><br />
<strong>members</strong> who attended our signature “To Hell<br />
with the Bell Breakfast” on September 4 th . The<br />
115 in attendance had many stories to<br />
exchange, and a great deal of good food and<br />
great fun was shared. Kudos to our talented<br />
social convenor Simone Rickerby and<br />
Executive helpers Jim Sparrow, Dorothy<br />
Clement, Geri Sutts, and John Zangari, our<br />
trusty “Bell Ringer”. Special thanks to Ann<br />
Cotter for her exciting visual documentation of<br />
this warm occasion. Congratulations to<br />
Lorenzo Pinnaza (retired Consultant<br />
WECDSB) as our two thousandth <strong>new</strong><br />
member.<br />
Our Golf Tournament on September 24 th<br />
at Dominion Golf Course took place on a<br />
glorious day of sunshine. Simone did a<br />
great job of planning and all in attendance<br />
had a wonderful time except for the few<br />
lost balls and bogeys. We look forward to<br />
our Spring outing.<br />
In June our Executive met to define our<br />
goals for the coming year. We continue to<br />
reach out and serve our <strong>members</strong> by the<br />
advocation of your needs regarding<br />
pension, health benefits and other relevant<br />
issues via representation at Provincial<br />
Fall/Spring Senate meetings. We support<br />
our Provincial Executive in their efforts in<br />
lobbying the government regarding quality<br />
of life issues for seniors. One timely issue<br />
concerns details on pension splitting. Our<br />
political action provincial representative,<br />
Jim Sparrow, suggests your consultation<br />

provincial project, “Service to Others” grant has gone<br />
to our Windsor Symphony Orchestra’s Educational<br />

as special guest performer. These special grant monies<br />
go to services and programmes for children who might<br />
otherwise not be able to participate. We are grateful<br />

organizations that benefit children, seniors, or the<br />
community overall. Deadline for submissions is<br />

Our Workshop Arts planning team met Tuesday,<br />
September 25 th . The group is still undecided<br />
regarding accessible locations due to equipment and<br />
geographical needs for the workshops as well as costs<br />
regarding accessibility of computer labs. We have<br />
participant interest in computers, digital photography<br />
as well as painting, drawing, calligraphy. Prerequisites<br />
for participation still have to be researched,<br />
as well as material costs and our specific clinician<br />
availability. We are looking at an early Spring<br />
Saturday in May (T.B.A. in our March Newsletter).<br />
Any further suggestions or interest in participation,<br />
from our <strong>members</strong>hip, would be greatly appreciated.<br />
We continue to provide Retirement Planning<br />
Workshops that focus on issues of health benefits,<br />
pension protection and the many benefits of<br />

Ontario. If interested in copies, please contact Gail<br />

Slaney phoned the maternity ward at the hospital.<br />
"Quick!" He said. "Send an ambulance, my wife is<br />
goin’ to have a baby!" "Tell me, is this her first<br />
baby?" the intern asked, "No, this is her husband,<br />
Kevin, speakin’."<br />
An American lawyer asked an Irish acquaintance,<br />
"Paddy, why is it that whenever you ask an Irishman<br />
a question, he answers with a question?<br />
"Who told you that?" asked Paddy.<br />
Mrs. Feeney shouted from the kitchen, "Is that you<br />
I hear spittin' in the vase on the mantlepiece?"<br />
"No," said himself, "but I'm gettin' closer all the<br />
time."<br />
Notice<br />
To all of our <strong>members</strong> who indicated an interest<br />
in participating in our Fall Workshops:<br />
We are continuing to research workshop offerings,<br />
presenters and the most appropriate venues. In order to<br />
be able to offer you the best programme possible, we<br />
have had to change our date. The workshops, including<br />
digital photography, computers and a variety of<br />
workshops involving arts and crafts, will now be<br />
presented next Spring (May). We are sorry for any<br />
disappointment this may cause. Hopefully it will provide<br />
Santa the opportunity to surprise those wishing for a<br />
<strong>new</strong> digital camera or computer. Look for more<br />

A Person You Should Know!<br />
Introducing Gord Miall - President Elect of District 7, RTO/ ERO<br />
Gord Miall with <strong>new</strong> grandson, Jack<br />
Gord came to Windsor from Ottawa Teachers’<br />
College in 1967-68. He was a late hire by the<br />
Windsor Board of Education ( G.E.C.D.S.B.) and he<br />
and three others from Ottawa were among 120 hired<br />
that year. Oh those were the days!<br />
Gord’s three year planned stay has stretched into<br />
forty and truly Windsor is now home for him and his<br />
family. Maggie, also from Ottawa, married him in<br />
1970 and was hired by the board as well and she<br />
reluctantly settled in Windsor. She stuck it out and<br />
three children later – Scott and twins Allison and Kitri<br />
entered the picture. Scott (and Shawna) is living in<br />
Ottawa, Allison is an occasional teacher in Windsor,<br />
and Kitri (and her husband Todd and <strong>new</strong> grandson<br />
Jack) also living in Windsor give them much joy.<br />
Gord’s career included McCallum, Edith Cavell,<br />
Forest Glade, Prince Charles, Hugh Beaton and<br />
Glenwood as a teacher and Central, Victoria,<br />
McCallum (again), John Campbell, Maxwell and<br />
Coronation as a Vice Principal. Somewhere in there,<br />
during amalgamation, he spent four months at<br />
A.V.Graham in Tecumseh. He couldn’t keep a job<br />
could he!! He says that each assignment was unique,<br />
interesting, and a growth experience for him.<br />
He met a lot of teachers and administrators he<br />
enjoyed working with and found that thirty-five years<br />
went by much too quickly.<br />
Along the way, so to speak, Gord has been involved<br />
in a wide variety of educational and professional<br />
activities. Coaching seems to have taken up a good<br />
portion of his school time. Some of these coaching<br />
responsibilities have been extended to community,<br />
provincial, and Canada-wide involvement. For example,<br />
his gymnastic interests have led from school teams to<br />
organizing citywide championships to teaching<br />
gymnastics to coaches through the Ontario and<br />
Canadian Gymnastics Federations in every province<br />
except Newfoundland. He also coached (with Maggie)<br />
for fifteen years, a girls’ gymnastics team cosponsored<br />
by the S.W.Optimists Club and the Windsor Y. This<br />
team included girls from age six to twenty one. This<br />
experience led to co-authoring a Recreational<br />
Gymnastics Manual for the C.G.F. and a curriculum<br />
document called Gymfit for the O.G.F. He later<br />
became a master conductor, teaching coaches and<br />
recreational leaders how to conduct a Level 1 and<br />
Level 2 gymnastics course for people in their<br />
community.<br />
His school based Science Fair involvement expanded<br />
to include a twenty year stint on the Greater Essex<br />
County Science Fair Committee, which organized the<br />
Spring Science Fairs that have been held at St.Clair<br />
College and the University of Windsor. Gord was also<br />
part of a committee that brought the Canada-wide<br />
Science Fair to Windsor in 1990.<br />
Odyssey of the Mind was another of his interests and<br />
he is proud of the eight years he was connected with<br />
the local competitions that helped sort out the teams<br />
from S.W. Ontario who went on to represent this<br />
region of Ontario in the World Championships. Perhaps<br />
the highlight of that involvement was the team from<br />
Windsor that he helped coach that went to Grand<br />
Rapids Michigan where they won the Ranatra Fusca<br />
(Creativity Prize) Award that year. (1985)<br />
Gord has also been involved in many professional<br />
organizations. He was an active member of OPSMTF.<br />
/ OPSTF between 1976 and 1987, holding a number of<br />
6
executive positions and is delighted that an<br />
amalgamated organization (ETFO) represents teachers<br />
today. Later as a Vice Principal, he was very active<br />
again, holding a number of executive positions in that<br />
Association as well.<br />
Outside of the school environment Gord had been<br />
involved running summer athletic camps at Sunshine<br />
Point near Colchester for the Windsor Y. In the 70’s<br />
and 80’s, he and Maggie also ran the Kiwanis Camp<br />
on the same site in 1975 and 1976. Later, from 1975<br />
to the present he has been very active at Riverside<br />
United Church, serving on committees and is presently<br />
Chair of the Church Council.<br />
Gord feels that retirement is a wonderful next phase<br />
in a busy life. He has for four years been playing<br />
retiree baseball organized by WECSSO, and hopes<br />
that the knees hold out for many more years. His golf<br />
game has been getting some work as well. (It needs<br />
it!!) He put the whitewater paddle and canoe away a<br />
couple of years ago and trips now are to such places<br />
as Stratford, Niagara-On-The-Lake, Florida and<br />
cruises in the Caribbean. He is also happy to get more<br />
involved with the quarter horses Maggie and the girls<br />
have been riding for years; no, not as a rider but a<br />
spectator at horse shows and sometimes now as their<br />
ring steward.<br />
Oh yes – as you pass the Sandwich Secondary School<br />
track in late May and early June, look for Gord. He’s<br />
the guy wearing the engineer’s hat and holding the<br />
starter’s pistol. He and his friend Ron Kerr have been<br />
starters at the Elementary School meets for the past<br />
twenty-five years.<br />

Social Committee Report<br />
Outcries of joy followed as John Zangari rang the school bell at our "To Hell with the Bell" breakfast at the<br />
Dominion Golf Club. Over 100 <strong>new</strong> and seasoned retirees were in attendance and enjoyed a wonderful breakfast<br />
and lots of friendship.<br />
Vonnie Prime from the Windsor Symphony was presented with a cheque for $3250.50 from Provincial through<br />
our Service to Others Project. The money will allow hundreds of students from impoverished schools to attend the<br />
Windsor Symphony Educational Concerts free of charge.<br />
We were blessed with some beautiful weather for our Golf Tournament held at Dominion Golf Course on<br />
September 24 th . It was great to see some <strong>new</strong> and familiar <strong>members</strong> participating in this annual event.<br />

The provincial government has begun a program whereby any Ontario resident who takes three or more<br />
prescription medications may arrange for a thirty minute consultation with their pharmacist to discuss the<br />
medications and any interactions. There is no charge to the individual.<br />
We have become aware that some U.S. medical facilities try to bill participants for claims incurred even<br />
though World Access (WAC) has already paid the bill. In some cases, the facilities have even turned the<br />
demand for payment over to a collection agency. This can be most disturbing to the individual participant but<br />
unfortunately seems to becoming a more common occurrence in the travel industry. If you are contacted for<br />
payment of a travel claim that you’ve made under the RTO/ERO Health Plans, contact WAC immediately.<br />

District 7, Windsor-Essex is growing. A year ago, we speculated that the goal of 2000 <strong>members</strong> would be<br />
achieved sometime in 2007. We are proud to announce that, on August 3, 2007, Lorenzo Pinazza became the<br />
2000 th member.<br />
Currently, District <strong>members</strong>hip stands at 2002. Growth is greatly the result of the Retirement Planning<br />
Workshop (RPW) that RTO/ERO sponsors each year.<br />
Although a specific date has not been selected for the next RPW, the Membership Committee is targeting<br />
Spring 2008. Planning will continue and information will be announced likely in the next <strong>new</strong>sletter.<br />
It is important to note, that a French component and French Language presenters are part of the initial<br />
planning for the RPW.<br />
In the meantime, if you know of prospective retirees please advise them to attend this important function.<br />
Teachers contemplating retirement in the next three years should seriously consider participating in a RTO-<br />
ERO Retirement Planning Workshop.<br />
During 2007 RTO/ERO held 23 RPWs across the Province. The RPWs have evolved over the past years, and<br />
now consist of a PowerPoint presentation, a participant’s manual, and an RTO/ERO video. The RPW deals<br />
with these critical issues:<br />
a) Pension<br />
b) Financial Considerations<br />
c) Health Benefits & Insurance<br />
d) Personal Considerations<br />
e) Considering a second career<br />
f) Frequently Asked Questions<br />
g) RTO/ERO Fact Sheets<br />
h) Travel<br />

FROM THE ARCHIVES<br />
Did you know from 1966 to 1972, Windsor-Essex was a Unit of Area 4 which comprised Essex and Kent counties?<br />
In 1972, Provincial changed the Area designation from 10 Areas to 25 Districts. Windsor-Essex remained as a Unit<br />
of the Essex-Kent District which was District 7.<br />
With the help of Lenore Graham, Windsor-Essex became a District in 1985. Windsor-Essex became District 7 and<br />
Kent was renumbered as District 35.<br />
Our Lenore Graham was a Provincial President in 1987-88.<br />

A BOOK OF MY OWN LITERACY CAMPAIGN<br />
We need <strong>new</strong> children's books to give to disadvantaged children. Our group gives books to children from infancy<br />
to 15 years of age through 26 agencies in Windsor and Essex County. These <strong>new</strong> books are given to the children<br />
to keep as their own. Literacy is the gateway to learning and it is important that all children have the opportunity<br />
to have books in their homes. We try to make this happen.<br />
Our next book distribution is in November. Bring a <strong>new</strong> children's book to our luncheon and we will make sure that<br />
it goes to a disadvantaged child.<br />

Do you check before you invest?<br />
Did you research your last investment? If you didn’t, you’re not alone.<br />
A recent study showed that 92% of Canadians agree it’s important to research your investments, but only 48%<br />
actually did. This statistic is just one of many that point to a trend in Canadian financial behaviour: we know<br />
what we ought to do, but we don’t do it.<br />
“As more Canadians rely on their investments to sustain them during their retirement years, it’s becoming<br />
more important to play an active role in financial decision-making,” said Patricia Trott, Manager of Investor<br />
Communications at the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC). “There are some key things you should always<br />
find out before you commit your money, and the time you take to research your investments is well spent.”<br />
Why check before you invest?<br />
Canadians are living longer, and one challenge of retirement planning is in finding the balance between<br />
enjoying your lifestyle and making sure you have enough savings.<br />
Playing a more active role in your financial decisions can help you:<br />
· alleviate financial stress;<br />
· prevent misunderstandings or conflicts down the road; and<br />
· protect yourself from investment fraud.<br />
On Thursday November 15th , a staff volunteer from the OSC will deliver a presentation for the RTO Windsor-<br />
Essex District called “Check Before You Invest.” You’ll learn about common types of investment fraud, red<br />
flags to watch out for and some questions to ask before committing your money.<br />
To find out more, visit www.checkbeforeyouinvest.ca for free brochures on topics like working with a<br />
financial adviser or preventing investment fraud.<br />
ONTARIO SECURITIES COMMISSION (OSC)<br />
Avoiding the Retirement Risk Zone<br />
Many retirees and those approaching retirement are concerned about whether their investments are capable of<br />
providing a sustainable and predictable income. Conservative investments can result in a return insufficient to<br />
fund one’s retirement. Aggressive investing, can result in a loss of capital. But now there is ‘a <strong>new</strong> kid on the<br />
block’.<br />
Recently, a Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit Plan was introduced into Canada. Regardless of<br />
how the markets perform, it provides investors with a guaranteed income for at least 20 years, if not longer.<br />
With bonuses and opportunities to lock in market gains, payments and the duration of payments can increase.<br />
Switches between funds can be done at any time. It has the potential for creditor protection and in the event of<br />
death, the proceeds of the contract can be passed directly to designated beneficiaries without the expense of<br />
probate.<br />
If this sounds too good to be true, speak with your financial advisor for more details.<br />

BookFestWindsor 2007<br />
AWARD-WINNING LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL AUTHORS, POETS AND ARTISTS FLOOD<br />
INTO WINDSOR<br />
6 th Annual BookFest Windsor to Take Place November 2-4, 2007<br />
Over 40 authors, poets and artists will take up residence in Windsor in early November, working singly and in<br />
workshops and panels to delight, challenge and engage audiences of all ages, and both official languages. From<br />
the criminally-minded (crime writer Mary Jane Maffini) to the graphically gifted (George Rizok, Michele<br />
Laframboise), from the weighty (Clark Blaise, Lawrence Hill, Afua Cooper), to the witty (Karl Jirgens, Emma<br />
Donoghue), this festival brings a phenomenal group of nationally and internationally recognized artists into our<br />
midst – hosting sessions at local schools, the Windsor Public Library (main branch), and the Art Gallery of<br />
Windsor.<br />
BookFest Windsor marks a community celebration of literacy in all forms – from the art of book creation, to<br />
the joy of reading and the giddy power of freedom of expression. With a mix of established authors and poets<br />
(John Metcalf, Alistair McLeod) and relative <strong>new</strong>comers (Sue Elmslie, Tanis MacDonald, Eden Robinson), the<br />
festival offers a variety of passionate voices and perspectives. Indeed, through the annual BookFest student<br />
poetry contest, it also offers voice to our own budding local poets – culminating in the student poetry contest<br />
award ceremony (“The Best of the Verse”), held Friday 2 November, in the evening.<br />
With collaborative workshops on mystery writing (“How to Build a Better Sleuth”), transforming books into<br />
art objects (“Turning the Pages”), graphic novels (“Getting Graphic”), and for children (“For Kids, By Kids”),<br />
as well as engaging panel discussions spanning such topics as translation (“Found in Translation”), poetry<br />
(“The Road to an Ode”), getting started writing (“Who’s Who, How To”), short stories (“To Make a Long<br />
Story Short”), as well as powerful novels (“A History of Strength” and “A Strong Slice of Life”) – among<br />
many others – there is something of interest for everyone. Please see www.bookfestwindsor.ca for a full<br />
schedule and a complete list of participating authors and artists. As in prior years, BookFest Windsor offers an<br />
embarrassment of riches for all ages.<br />
Quite aside from being a premier event in its own right, BookFest Windsor is also the only Canadian literary<br />
festival within a four-hour radius. As such, it draws participants and supporters from across our community,<br />
and around the region. The unparalleled access to artists and authors the festival offers attracts Windsorites and<br />
Michiganders alike to our downtown core. As a side-effect, BookFest also offers a powerful and positive<br />
introduction to Windsor to the traveling authors, who inevitably “pass it on” – witness Noah Richler’s glowing<br />
“review” of the city in The Globe and Mail after attending BookFest Windsor in 2006.<br />
About BookFest Windsor: BookFest Windsor (originally called Windsor Festival of the Book) is organized<br />
and administered by Literary Arts Windsor: Promotion, Performance, Publishing (LAW PPP). The festival was<br />
first held in September 2002; November 2007 marks its sixth year. Working in collaboration with dedicated<br />
sponsors and with the Windsor Star and the CBC as media partners, BookFest Windsor has been enormously<br />
successful at bringing acclaimed authors to Windsor, and has grown into an important fixture on Canada’s<br />
book tour circuit. For more information, please visit www.bookfestwindsor.ca<br />
If you would like more information about BookFest Windsor 2007, or to schedule an interview with any of<br />
the artists, please call Lenore Langs at 519-945-8106 (langs@cranberrytreepress.com), or Martin Deck at 519-<br />
253-3000 x 3726 (mdeck@uwindsor.ca) or for the French program, Jeremy Worth at 519-253-3000 x 2878<br />
(jworth@uwindsor.ca).<br />

TEACH IN ONTARIO<br />
According to the Transition to Teaching study by the Ontario College of Teachers (2006), internationally educated teachers<br />
(IETs) are dramatically under-employed in the Ontario school system despite prior teaching experience.<br />
To address employment barriers, Teach in Ontario offers a num ber of services to help IETs make the transition to<br />
teaching in Ontario. Services include:<br />
�� Information and counselling<br />
�� Document assistance<br />
�� Employment preparation courses<br />
�� English language upgrading courses<br />
�� A classroom immersion module<br />
6. Supply teacher workshops<br />
7. A professional coaching module<br />
The Professional Coaching Module pairs IETs with practicing or retired teachers who serve as coaches. Through<br />
professional dialogue, over a period of six months, coaches provide guidance and support in areas such as professional<br />
development, employment preparation, dynamics of the Ontario classroom and workplace culture.<br />
We have many talented and eager IETs who are seeking coaches. It’s a great opportunity to make a difference in the life<br />
of a <strong>new</strong>comer, share your knowledge and experience and learn about teaching from an international perspective.<br />
To participate as a coach, or for additional inform ation about Teach in Ontario services, please contact Kelly Todd,<br />
Professional Coaching Coordinator, (519) 973-5588 ext. 23, e-mail: kelly@wwwwiw.org.<br />
Teach in Ontario is jointly funded by the Government of Ontario and the Government of Canada through Citizenship and<br />
Immigration Canada.<br />
Use your years of rich experience….<br />
