Proposed bridge toll location not city’s choice

be even healthier for our econo m ies and our people.” Saaltink was at cit y council last Monda y to present a report on the bridge project, including the bridge corporation’s plan to keep its tolls in Cornwall, just to the west of the new span. He said a recent surve y found bridge us- ers “quite divided” on the issue toll location, with about one-third content to have the toll booth located in Cornwall. He added he is “quite confident” that if the cit y had “issues” with the proposed lo- cation of the new toll plaza that it could be resolved through talks with the bridge cor- poration. If there is still no resolution, the cit y can discuss with issue further with Micheline Dube, president and CEO of the Federal Bridge Corporation, he suggested. The bridge corporation also ca m e under fire for collecting tolls fro m local travelers, especiall y those crossing to attend func- tions on Cornwall Island as well as the price of the tolls co m pared to other crossings. “Wh y is it alwa y s the highest (cost) cross- ing point when we have so m uch travel?” questioned Councillor Gerr y Sa m son, who said so m e people are evening crossing b y boat to avoid the toll charge.

CORNWALL | The city may have to meet with the local bridge corporation’s “po- litical masters” if the government agency ignores the city’s opposition to the pro- posed location of a new bridge toll, says the city’s mayor. Bob Kilger issued the threat at the end of a presentation to cit y council last about plans for the $75- m illion low level bridge now under construction, and the thorn y is- sue of where the bridge toll should be lo- cated. “I’ll leave it to my colleagues, in their col- lective wisdo m , to decide if that is a path the y wish to pursue after this evening,” Kilg- er said, after questioning Hendrik Saaltink, general m anager of the Seawa y Interna- tional Bridge Corporation. In a subsequent interview with The Jour- nal, Kilger said he was not frustrated with the bridge corporation. But he sees the toll as a stu m bling block to strengthening the bond between Cornwall and Akwesasne. “I just see the toll as a barrier. It’s a trade barrier, it’s a cultural barrier. It doesn’t en- courage the kind of exchanges that would

We don’t alwa y s like to pa y for so m ething – it’s irritat- ing, but it’s all part of a s y ste m .” Past surve y s have found “people don’t generall y object to tolling”, but the y don’t like waiting in line “to use the facilit y ,” es- peciall y co mm ercial travelers, Saaltink said. “That has a bigger econo m ic i m pact.”

“The bridge corporation is ver y sensitive to the needs of all crossing users. Ever y y ear, two to three y ears, we conduct surve y s of our bridge users,” Saaltink said. “We are tr y ing to walk a balance between the needs of all crossing users and our needs as a corporation with fiscal respon- sibilit y , because at the end of the da y , we have had y ears where we have m ade ver y , ver y little m one y .

Former CAO not involved in hiring successor

confidential. The personnel committee will set the scope of power for the new CAO. “One of the first issues I believe the per- sonnel committee with seize with on the issue of governance,” KIlger said, “because I think we have to make it clear to the can- didates seeking the position of CAO of the city of Cornwall what their authority will be and where the limitations are.” “The personnel committee will submit a report to council on the governance issue particularly to make sure . . . there is a ma- jority consensus around the council table as to what the responsibilities and authority of the new CAO will be.” Paul Fitzpatrick, who earned $183,000 as the city’s top employee last year, will be on “management leave” until his retirement on Jan. 31, 2013, according to a June 29 press release issued by the city. In a July 31 press release, the city indicated Fitzpatrick “will continue to be available to the city and will provide assistance on transitional and other issues that may arise” adding that “one of the key objectives of the transitional pro- cess is the recruitment of a new CAO.” Fitzpatrick, who was Cornwall’s CAO for six years, is the highest ranking city official in an exodus that began with former Glen Stor Dun Lodge administrator Donna Der- ouchie in July 2011. Since then, the city has fired human resources manager Robert Me- nagh and city clerk Denise Labelle-Gelinas has announced her impending retirement. Over the same time period, a council- lor – Leslie O’Shaughnessy – resigned over frustration with a lack of information from administration on key council decisions and the city lost a human rights decision in- volving a former employee and was found guilty of retaliating against another city em- ployee who had reported a case of abuse at Glen Stor Dun Lodge.

GREG KIELEC greg.kielec@eap.on.ca

The city of Cornwall’s former chief admin- istrative officer will not lend a hand in hiring his replacement, Mayor Bob Kilger told Cornwall city council last Monday. “At no time will the former CAO be in- volved in the selection of the new chief ad- ministrative officer,” Kilger asserted. The recruitment process will begin early next month with the goal of having the po- sition filled by the beginning of next year, according to a report to council on the is- sue. The recruitng will be handled by the city’s human resources department “with the possible exception of securing some spe- cialized outside services related to inter- view content and evaluation and candidate selection and evaluation.” But Councillor Glen Grant took issue with the option of using outside expertise while speaking at last Monday’s meeting. He said city councillors and current human resourc- es manager Dale Levesque have enough experience to complete the hiring process. “I personally don’t think we need that (out- side expertise).” Candidates for the city’s top job will be narrowed down by a committee comprised of personnel committee members Denis Carr, Denis Thibault and Glen Grant, with the addition of Councillor Elaine MacDon- ald. The top two or three candidates will be presented to full council, but Councillor Maurice Dupelle said all the candidates should be revealed to full council at the outset. He said councillors can be informed via email or through an in camera meeting under the condition they keep the names

Teens face drug charges An Alexandria teen and three passengers face a raft of charges after they were caught with drugs during an impaired driving spot check on Aug. 11.

Judicial review scuttled by federal legislation

Bruce Power announced in May 2011 it was pulling back from its plan to transport 16 radioactive steam generators down the St. Lawrence River to Sweden for recycling. The utility was granted a licence to trans- port the metal generators in February 2011 by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commis- sion. The licence expired February this year. “The judicial review applications request- ed the Federal Court quash, or set aside, the permits, but the permits themselves have now since expired and Bruce Power must re-apply if it wishes to proceed with this project,” said CELA lawyer Richard Lindgren. “More importantly, the former Act was re- pealed by Bill C-38, and the key questions of statutory interpretation raised in the ju- dicial review applications are no longer rel- evant under the new Act.” Sierra Club Canada and CELA turned to the courts in 2011 after the CNSC issued two permits to Bruce Power without con- ducting an environmental assessment in accordance with the Canadian Environmen- tal Assessment Act. The permits were issued despite serious objections and concerns presented to the CNSC by numerous organizations, individu- als, municipalities, and First Nation commu- nities.

GREG KIELEC greg.kielec@eap.on.ca

A judicial review of Bruce Power’s plan to ship 1,600 tonnes of nuclear waste down the St. Lawrence River to Sweden for re- cycling has been scuttled by a change in federal legislation. The Canadian Environmental Assessment was repealed by the federal government when it passed bill C-138, effectively killing applications for judicial review from Sierra Club Canada and the Canadian Environ- mental Law Association. The groups say they are now withdrawing their applications for a review of permits al- lowing Bruce Power to export the radioac- tive waste past numerous cities along the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway, includ- ing Cornwall. The permits, issued by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, expired after Bruce Power decided to delay its plan to ship 16 school-bus sized radioactive steam generators – each weighing one tonne - to Sweden for recycling. The plan was roundly criticized by envi- ronmentalists and municipal leaders from cities along both sides of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River – including Corn- wall city council and local Mohawk leaders --concerned about the potential of radioac- tive contamination if a shipping accident were to occur. “In our opinion, Bruce Power is attempt- ing to pull a bait-and-switch that threatens communities and changes Canada’s policy on nuclear waste without any public input or debate,” said John Bennett, executive di- rector of Sierra Club Canada. But in a statement issued last week, Bruce Power said the proposal to recycle steam generators and recent changes to the Cana- dian Environmental Assessment Act were unrelated. “Bruce Power currently has no update to provide on the option to safely recycle steam generators. If we choose to proceed with the proposal at a later date, we would be required to re-apply to the CNSC for a permit that expired earlier this year. Chang- es to the Canadian Environmental Assess- ment Act have no impact on this. In fact, it was determined previously, under the act of the time, our proposal to safely recycle this material did not require such an assess- ment.” The statement concludes: “Many anti- nuclear groups such as the Sierra Club con- tinue to provide inaccurate information sur- rounding this issue. Independent experts have confirmed the option to safely recycle steam generators was consistent with inter- national best practice to reduce, reuse and recycle. In addition, numerous authorities confirmed the proposal posed no health or safety impact to the public or environment.”

A judicial review of how Bruce Power was given the okay to ship 1,600 tonnes of nuclear waste down the St. Lawrence River to Sweden for recycling has been pre- empted by a change to federal environmental legislation.

TAURUS A series of small successes will enhance your self-esteem. It will also give you the necessary credibility to promote a project close to your heart. GEMINI For work, there’s a good chance that you will be able to set up a highly functional home office. You will also need to clear away any clutter from your surroundings. CANCER Love will preoccupy you this week. By communicating clearly with your loved one, you will learn more about his or her feelings and intentions. LEO You’re thinking about selling or buying a property. Focusing more on inexpensive housing will improve all your family’s quality of life. VIRGO Take the time to treat yourself a bit and perhaps also think about buying a new car. A few people will ask you to help them, which will force you to go out more than usual. LIBRA By making a few calculations you begin to see that you have the means to achieve your ambitions. Indeed, you will likely find the necessary funds to accomplish one of your biggest dreams. SCORPIO You may tend to become a little discour- aged when faced with bigger responsibili- ties, but as the work progresses you will realize just how capable you are. SAGITTARIUS Take a step back so you can see your situation more clearly. At work, you aspire to something more in line with your convictions. CAPRICORN Your summer vacation has only just fin- ished and you are already thinking about taking the next one with a group of friends. You will organize a meeting at work that will bring together a lot of people. AQUARIUS You are someone who needs constant change. You hate stagnation, especially on an intellectual level. This is why you could decide to change jobs rather spontaneously. PISCES After some thought, you will make some important decisions concerning your per- sonal and professional future. A business trip could come up rather unexpectedly.

Robbie Chapman, l’histoire d’un triathlonien

définitivement le tube apparent dans le ventre de Robbie. La cicatrice est là, com- me pour lui rappeler le chemin parcouru. Délivrance cependant, soulagement. Mais un an plus tard, à 15 ans, Robbie vit une autre expérience hors du commun pour un jeune garçon de son âge : il est victime d’une crise cardiaque. Transporté d’urgence à l’hôpital d’Ottawa par hélicoptère, ses jambes restent paralysées pendant deux mois. Avec un surplus de poids et des an- técédents sérieux, ses médecins lui parlent de son sang. Trop épais depuis sa naissance, ils l’encouragent à courir, à se lancer dans un sport afin d’éviter d’autres problèmes cardiovasculaires. C’est alors que son voisin, un triathlonien, l’invite à assister à une course à laquelle il prend part à Lake Placid. «J’ai toujours trouvé ce sport étrange, surtout le costume que les athlètes portent, raconte Robbie. Je me moquais de son accoutrement mais j’ai tout de même accepté son invitation.» De retour chez lui, son voisin lui demande s’il a apprécié. Robbie s’étonne de répondre par l’affirmative. C’est alors que ce cher voisin lui lance un défi : il inscrit Robbie au pro- chain triathlon de Cornwall (nage, course, vélo) mais ce dernier n’a que trois mois pour s’entraîner. Pari tenu. Robbie, alors âgé de 16 ans, prend au sérieux ce défi et s’entraîne tant bien que mal, seul. «Je courais, je nageais, je faisais du vélo mais comme ça, à ma manière, en étant mon propre entraîneur», relate-t-il. Trois mois plus tard, avec quelques kilos en moins et aucune expérience, Robbie se pointe à la course et prend le départ. À son grand étonnement, ce néophyte se classe troisième de sa catégorie. Pari gagné! Ce jour a tout changé dans la vie de Robbie. «J’ai dû prendre une décision importante : poursuivre ma vie d’ado et aller dans des

ANNIE LAFORTUNE annie.lafortune@eap.on.ca

Il est jeune, il est beau, c’est un athlète, un triathlonien, et il se classe honorablement ou gagne ses courses parce qu’il y croit. Sa spécialité : le demi Ironman. Mais s’est-on déjà demandé qui se cache vraiment der- rière chaque sportif? La raison qui pousse à se donner à fond dans une discipline? Robbie, lui, a toute une histoire. Un con- te de fée pour certains, de l’audace pour d’autres. Né le 30 juillet 1993, Robbie Chapman fait le bonheur de sa maman, Jacqueline. Mais le sort frappe rapidement. Robbie a un grave problème au tube digestif. La nourriture ne trouve aucun accès pour de- scendre dans son estomac. Les médecins en perdent leur latin. Les sept premières années de sa vie, il les passe entre les murs de l’hôpital pour un suivi quotidien. On lui installe un tube au niveau de l’estomac. À l’âge où tous les jeunes enfants font leurs premiers pas à l’école, lui poursuit sa vie et sa maternelle à l’hôpital. Puis, on lui décou- vre des caillots de sang au niveau du bras et du cou droit. Afin d’éviter le pire, Robbie se voit contraint de porter un casque afin d’éviter toute blessure à la tête. À sept ans, il intègre enfin l’école ‘’normale’’. Pas facile pour un jeune enfant de se faire accepter avec sa différence. Pour lui, ce qui était nor- mal l’était beaucoup moins pour les autres enfants qui l’entouraient. On le traite de ‘’tête de casque’’, on lui enlève de force son bonnet sous son casque, l’hiver, tout sim- plement parce qu’il est différent. «J’ai beau- coup souffert pendant cette période», con- fie-t-il. Son casque lui sera définitivement enlevé une fois l’adolescence at- teinte. Robbie grandit

sérieux et la saine alimentation fait naturel- lement partie de son quotidien. Il prend part à une course, en Floride. Il n’avait pas l’âge requis, tout juste un an de moins, mais sa persuasion change la donne. On lui ac- corde le droit de participer au demi Iron- man de Sarasota. Il affronte les plus grands noms de cette discipline dans un 2 km nage, 90 km vélo et 21 km course. À tout juste 17 ans, Robbie monte sur la troisième marche du podium et décroche la médaille de bronze. Aucun doute, il est au bon en- droit au bon moment. Étonné de sa perfor- mance, il pleure sous les cris de joie de sa mère et de sa sœur. On voit tout le poten- tiel chez ce jeune et on prend au sérieux ce phénomène. Mieux, un entraîneur, un agent, un physio et une nutritionniste font aujourd’hui partie de la vie de ce jeune ath- lète qui possède le sésame, sa carte de pro- fessionnel. S’ensuivent des podiums à cha- cune de ses courses, comme celle de janvier 2012, à Naples en Floride, où il se classe sur la plus haute marche devant plus de 550 coureurs. Ce triathlonien d’exception ne se prend cependant pas au sérieux. Tout a changé en seulement trois ans d’expérience sportive.

«Ma mère. C’est grâce à elle si je suis ce que je suis aujourd’hui, en tant que personne et en tant que sportif», déclare-t-il. Comme Robbie le dit si bien, «nous avons tous une mission sur terre. La loi de vie est de se re- specter si nous voulons être respectés. Ma passion, c’est la vie. Je veux découvrir, vivre ce que les gens vivent et ressentent.» Ainsi, ne lui parlez pas d’aller se reposer dans un hôtel quelconque avec tout le luxe à portée de main. Non. Robbie veut sentir, décou- vrir. Cette semaine, il est à New York. Parti découvrir la ville sur son vélo, son meilleur copain. Pas question de prendre le métro. Il veut sentir, voir, vibrer. Robbie a une âme qui a beaucoup vécu et ne se soucie guère du passé ni du futur. «Je vis le présent en essayant le plus possible d’aider les gens. Je veux découvrir la raison pour laquelle je suis venu sur terre. Terry Fox était un gars tellement spécial. Il avait trouvé la raison.» Aujourd’hui, Robbie a pris sa revanche. Prochain grand défi? Gagner la plus grande course, à Knoxville, Tennesse, en mai prochain. «Pour ma mère», confie-t-il. Robbie Chapman, bon, tout simplement. Un trésor, un être béni des Dieux.

et vit une vie tout à fait normale. À part de nombreux allers- retours entre la maison et l’hôpital, et son tube qui fait désormais partie de lui, il vit sa vie d’adolescent. Com- me plusieurs autres de son âge, Robbie n’aime pas les lé- gumes, s’alimente plutôt mal et ne fait pas d’exercice. «Pourtant, à la mai- son, ma mère fai- sait toujours de très

tier. Quand on sait qu’une femme sur trois connaîtra une sorte de violence au moins une fois dans sa vie, Walk a Mile in her shoes se veut un point de ralliement afin d’amas- ser de l’argent pour les centres de femmes victimes de violences et prendre des me- sures drastiques pour prévenir la violence psychologique et sexuelle que trop de femmes, encore, subissent chaque jour de leur vie. Et 70 % des femmes victimes de violences sexuelles connaissent leur agres- seur. Les hommes marchent un mille après avoir délicatement enfilé des chaussures à talons hauts rouges. «Parce que la violence faite aux femmes n’affecte pas uniquement les femmes, explique Frank Baird. Les hommes sont blessés et en colère lorsque des femmes auxquelles ils sont attachés sont violées.» Développer une relation avec

des femmes qui ont été victimes de violence dans une atmosphère de peur, de méfiance et de blâme ne facilite aucunement une relation saine et facile. Le viol n’est pas une affaire de sexe, mais bien de pouvoir, de contrôle et de violence. Chaque année, les hommes qui n’hésitent pas à marcher pour elles démontrent publi- quement le courage et l’engagement pour prévenir la violence sexuelle. Ainsi, la com- munauté a l’opportunité de parler de ces problèmes extrêmement importants pour aider à l’amélioration des rapports entres les genres et afin de diminuer le potentiel de violence. En participant et en organisant cet événement, la communauté dit ‘’Stop’’ à la violence faite aux enfants, aux jeunes filles et aux femmes. Tous les Cornwalliens, hommes, sont donc invités à prendre part à cet important tre véritables bêtes de scène qui vous en mettront plein la vue et plein les oreilles. Cet ensemble vocal des plus raffinés vous émerveillera tout en vous apportant la preuve que la voix humaine n’a aucune limite. Le samedi 13 avril 2013, on vous invite à vous laisser bercer par la musique tout à fait lucide et profondément touchante des pianistes Alessio Bax et Lucille Chung. Ce couple, uni dans la vie et au clavier, s’avère un alliage parfait d’équilibre et d’unité. C’est lors du Festival de musique de chambre d’Ottawa en 2003 que la brillante idée de les réunir en duo dans le cadre du Piano Ex- travaganza opéra sa magie. Les Concerts en série existent depuis plus de 25 ans à Cornwall. La série de bil- lets se vend à un prix très raisonnable de 70 $ jusqu’au 31 août et de 75 $ après cette date. Les étudiants jouissent d’un prix réduit à 40 $ pour les quatre concerts. Le stationnement au théâtre de la salle Aults- ville est gratuit. Vous pouvez vous procurer les billets aux deux succursales de la Caisse populaire de Cornwall. Les billets sont aussi disponibles à la banque Scotiabank sur la rue Brookdale et au Bureau de tourisme sur la rue Water Ouest à Cornwall. On peut communiquer avec Nicole Mills au 613 931-1725. .

Les concerts en série

Cornwall - Saviez-vous qu’il y a un secret encore trop bien gardé à Cornwall? Eh oui, depuis 25 ans, Cornwall est l’hôte de qua- tre soirées magnifiques offertes chaque année au théâtre Aultsville. Il s’agit de concerts présentés par des musiciens et des musiciennes de haut calibre. Le samedi 20 octobre, nous accueillerons trois musiciens de talent: Louise-Andrée Baril au piano, Ramsey Husser au violon et Annie Gadbois au violoncelle. Il s’agit du Trio a Piacere. Des oeuvres orchestrales savamment arrangées par Madame Barril sont inscrites au programme de leur con- cert. Nous entendrons du Dvorak, Milhaud, Fauré, Schubert et nous nous laisserons em- porter dans l’univers de Broadway. Originaire de Cornwall, la pianiste Lou- ise-Andrée Baril est l’une des musiciennes canadiennes les plus accomplies. Arran- geure, soliste, chambriste, chef de chant et répétitrice, elle a collaboré avec les plus importants ensembles et chefs d’orchestre au Canada et à l’étranger. Louise-Andrée s’intéresse beaucoup à la relève et elle a mis sur pied plusieurs ateliers d’opéra et projets pour les jeunes tels que l’Atelier d’opéra de l’Université de Montréal et du Centre d’arts Orford. Pédagogue recherchée, elle oeuvre au sein de plusieurs institutions musicales Robyn Guindon Pharmacie Ltée.

et académies d’été internationales au Can- ada, en France, en Belgique, au Mexique et aux États-Unis. Elle fait régulièrement partie de jurys internationaux et donne des cours de maître au Canada, en Europe et aux États-Unis. Eh oui, Louise-Andrée Baril est une des nôtres, une petite fille de Cornwall qui a su se distinguer ici et à l’étranger. Le samedi 17 novembre, ce sera Alex- ander Sevastian qui viendra nous éblouir avec son accordéon. Originaire de Minsk au Bélarus, il s’installa au Canada avec sa famille en 2002 et devint citoyen canadien en 2005. En 2002 il s’est joint au Quartetto Gelato qu’il accompagne régulièrement en tournée depuis. Ses concerts sont à la fois énergiques, engageants et teintés d’humour. Il ne faut pas manquer ce con- cert dont le titre Accordemaniac nous an- nonce déjà le ton de la soirée. Le samedi 23 mars, nous serons témoins d’un spectacle quelque peu original. Qua- tre hommes! Quatre micros! Quatre voix! Voilà la formule gagnante du prestigieux ensemble vocal canadien Cadence.
