Warden Kirby hands off the gavel

GREGG CHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca

“It was a great year,” Kirby said during an interview following the end of the last November Wednesday council session. One of the highlights, he noted, was being able to provide each member municipal- ity of United Counties of Prescott-Russell (UCPR) with some extra money for their own budgets with the cancellation of the ecoLarose project. The counties had set aside in a special re- serve fund $2million as its share for the eco- Larose project, on the assumption that the federal and provincial governments would partner with the UCPR on the proposed natural history research and interpretive centre and conference hall. When both se- nior levels of government in the end passed on the opportunity, the counties council

Before he signed off on the last bit of pape- rwork he will have to do this year as warden for the United Counties of Prescott-Russell, Robert Kirby had a few thank-yous to pass on to his fellow mayors and the counties staff. «I couldn’t have done it without you,» he said, before adjourning the Nov. 25 regular session of council. Next month during an evening inaugura- tion ceremony for the 2016 counties council, Kirby will hand over the warden’s gavel, chain of office, and duties to his successor for next year, Mayor Guy Desjardins of the City of Clarence-Rockland.

Robert Kirby signs off the last documents that will need his signature as warden of the United Counties of Prescott-Russell. The mayor of East Hawkesbury Township’s last official warden duty will be to hand over the chain of office and gavel to his successor, Mayor Guy Desjardins of Clarence-Rockland, during the mid-December inaugural meeting for the 2016 counties council.

CSEPR, l’unique ressource en emploi.

decided against returning the $2 million to the UCPR’s capital reserve, and voted instead to redistribute the money among the eight municipalities for use on their infrastructure and other needs.

“A lot of the municipalities are having a hard time,” Kirby said. Kirby will resume his seat on counties council as the mayoral representative for East Hawkesbury Township.

OPP to enhance RIDE campaign efforts

The Hawkesbury Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) will be enhancing its RIDE (Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere) campaign efforts on our highways and local roadways for the next 5 weeks. December and early January brings nu- merous occasions for friends, families and colleagues to get together and enjoy the holiday season.Therefore, the Hawkesbury OPP detachment is reminding motorists that there will be a visible increase of OPP officers as they focus their efforts to track downmotorists who place everyone’s safety at risk by drinking and driving on our roads and highways. From January to October 2015, the num- ber of alcohol involved occurrences is up three per cent over the same period last year. As of November 15, of the 258 persons killed during that time period, 35 fatalities were attributed to alcohol consumption.Thirteen people died when their off-road vehicle was involved in a collision; six of those people had been impaired by alcohol. The OPP is reminding the public that drivers who have a blood alcohol concen-

tration over 80 milligrams or who fail or refuse to comply with a demand to provide a breath sample will have their driver’s licence immediately suspended and their vehicles impounded for seven days regardless if they own the vehicle or not. In addition, drivers under 22 years of age, regardless of the class of licence they have, must have a zero alcohol level or their licence will be suspended on the spot. Police have seen the number of occur- rences of drug impaired driving rise inOnta- rio over the past year. Police are reminding the public during this Festive RIDE cam- paign that the OPP now has drug recognition officers with specialized training to identify drug impaired drivers. The OPP also has a significant number of officers who conduct standardized field sobriety tests on drivers who give police a reasonable suspicion of impairment by drugs. Police are asking the public to call 9-1-1 if they suspect any impaired driving or if they see someone who gets behind the wheel after they have been drinking.

Upper Canada district in the black The Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) trustees had a good news report to review during their Nov. 11 evening session. The auditor’s report for the 2014-2015 fiscal year shows everything “in the black” and meeting all provincial education ministry standards for balanced budgeting. In a press release UCDSB Chairman Jeff McMillan credited board and staff focus on fiscal responsibility while also keeping the safety and needs of students as a priority. – Gregg Chamberlain

Le Chenail not happy with township decision

already been addressed. We met with you. We heard you. If we meet with you again it will be for things we have not yet discussed.” A presentation was made to the council by Lynda Clouette-Mackay, general director of Le Chenail regarding funding for reno- vations to Maison de l’Ìle on November 9 requesting LeMaison de l’Ìle be designated as a cultural centre. Mackay wanted to make an application to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for a grant of $150,000 to make needed repairs and renovations to the building, however, the building must be a cultural centre. The board however had excluded the application to make it a tourist information office next

summer. «By going there with their tourist office, she (Mayor) is shooting us in the foot,” said Mackay. “We already offer the information to tourists.» A resolution was made by town council stating; ‘Be it resolved to authorize the Centre Cultural Le Chenail to submit a grant appli- cationwith the Ontario TrilliumFoundation for works described. Be it also resolved that the municipality will not be funding these repairs since it has already confirmed the required investments for the repairs of all stones inside and outside theMaison de l’Ìle scheduled for 2016-2017 from the Canada 150 grant and the Centre culturel Le Chenail

shall limit the repairs to the funding granted by the Ontario Trillium Foundation and that the works will have to be confirmed by council once the grant is awarded.’ Mackay sent a letter to the council re- garding her presentation to the council for November 9, which included minutes from council meetings stating Le Chenail had been made a heritage site, inspection reports, and engineering consultant reports, dating as far back as 1995. «We’re here to help,” said Batista. “Un- derstand that we are likely tomiss a chance to get a major grant that could save the tax- payers money.”

Speaking for Le Chenail, Grace Batista, resident of Hawkesbury and member of the board at Le Chenail wanted to know why Mayor Jeanne Charlebois, and the town council would not answer a simple question. “I don’t understand the bylaw for Le Chenail,” explained Batista. “You say that a decision has been made, but we do not yet have an answer.” “We are no longer receiving presentations for this,” explainedmayor Charlebois. “It has

Campagne contre les textos au volant

du Bureau de santé de l’est de l’Ontario. Le message est simple, lorsque vous conduisez… Yeux devant! Laissez de côté le cellulaire. « On a fait beaucoup d’inter- ventions auprès des conducteurs qui par- laient au cellulaire, mais pour les textos c’est plus difficile, parce que les automobilistes le cachent entre leurs jambes et peuvent dire qu’ils ne textaient pas. Et comme nous ne pouvons pas toujours fournir de preuves, il s’avère parfois difficile d’émettre des constats, même si c’est évident que le problème est là », a commenté l’agent de la Police provinciale de l’Ontario (OPP), Mario Gratton. La campagne, qui se poursuivra jusqu’en décembre prochain, comprend la distri- bution de 10 000 cartes postales avec un autocollant à apposer sur la vitre arrière de l’automobile. Les membres de la coalition encouragent les automobilistes à apposer cet autocollant à titre de rappel de ne pas texter au volant. Pour en savoir davantage sur les statis- tiques et la campagne, les intéressés peuvent consulter la page Facebook de C.A.R.S. Pres- cott, afin d’avoir de plus amples détails sur

ALEXANDRA MONTMINY alexandra.montminy@eap.on.ca

« Plus de 90% des Ontariens âgés entre 16 et 24 ans savent qu’il est interdit de texter au volant dans la province. Malgré cela, 55 % d’entre eux ont indiqué qu’ils lisaient des textos et 44% en envoyaient pendant qu’ils étaient au volant ». C’est ce qu’affirme la Santé publique de l’Ontario. En effet, le nombre d’accidents de la route reliés à l’utilisation du téléphone cellulaire pour les textos est en hausse. C’est pourquoi le Comité d’action régional pour la sécurité, également surnommé la coalition C.A.R.S. a reçu, encore cette année, des fonds du pro- gramme de partenariats communautaires pour la sécurité routière du ministère des Transports de l’Ontario afin demaintenir sa campagne de sensibilisation Yeux devant . « Les textos au volant sont une cause sé- rieuse d’accidents de la route et demortalité enOntario.

SNC to launch GeoPasseports

South Nation Conservation’s (SNC) partnership with the regional geoca- ching community continues to grow, with more than 1,600 geocaches now hidden throughout the 4,300 square kilometre jurisdiction. “The relationship has been beneficial for both parties,” said long-time geocacher Ian Mitchell, chair of SNC’s Communications Committee. “Geocachers have been wel- comed to a large territory and gained free meeting space, while SNC has benefited from positive public relations and greater appreciation for the natural resources in the area.” SNC hosts monthlymeetings for Geoca- chers of Eastern Ontario at its Finch office, with a large attendance. Special events are also held in SNC conference rooms, inclu- ding a public viewing of the Geocaching International FilmFestival, with some videos featuring “extreme geocaching” adventures. For the uninitiated, geocaching is a networked technology-based scavenger hunt that occurs around the world. Hid- den caches are rated according to the ter- rain and difficulty to locate. SNC became

involved about five years ago, Mitchell noted. In conjunction with area geocachers, the authority has organized several “Cache-in, Trash-out” cleanups and offers aWatershed GeoPassport which guides participants through a series of 20 caches hidden across the jurisdiction. Hundreds of residents and visitors take part every year. “The passport introduces users to locations of interest and to the work done by SNC, including bringing them through the Conservation areas,” said John Mesman, SNC Communications specia- list. Early in 2016, a new GeoPassport will be launched, noted Mesman. It will have a heritage theme and will guide users through various sites where they’ll gain an education on regional history. Unlike previous tours, this passport in- cludes a hard-copy historical guidebook, which is being produced thanks to support from the Great Lakes Guardian Community Fund.Those who successfully complete the tour will be awarded a collectable SNCGeo- coin… another way the authority promotes geocaching in the region.

Swearing in for Francis Drouin took place November 26 in the Centre Block of Parliament Buildings on Parliament Hill. Seen here is Yves Drouin, Nicole Drouin, Francis Drouin, Noah Drouin, Kathryn Forrest, Anik and Mathieu Drouin

OPP billing a concern to Champlain Township In August 2013, the Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services (MCSCS) developed a new, simplified billing model for OPP municipal police services. «The new billing formula is pleasing to about 15 per cent,” said Mayor Gary Barton. «And it cheesed off the other 85 per cent.” The new billing model did not include examination or review of expenditures in order to reduce the costs of OPP services per household. The new model was implemented in 2015 and will be phased in over the next three years. As such, the Champlain Township OPP services invoice was increased by $167,249, and will be increased another $196,769 bringing the bill to a total of $1,584,534. The township is requesting the MCSCS review and reconsider the new billing model and implement a more equitable formula. The council voted almost unanimously to request the review. Normand Rio- pel did not vote as he was not in attendance at the council meeting November 11. – Diane Hunter

Bridge memorial proposed for OPP officer A memorial plaque and dedication is proposed for a highway bridge in Champlain Township in memory of a local OPP officer who died in the line of duty. Const. Peter J. Kirk was stationed with the Hawkesbury OPP detachment in June 1968 when he died while on duty as a result of a motor vehicle accident on County Road 17 between L’Orignal in Champlain Township and Alfred in Alfred- Plantagenet Township. The Hawkesbury OPP detachment is seeking support for its application to a provincial transportation ministry bridge dedication program to have the bridge at the intersection of County Road 17 and Highway 34 dedicated in memory of Const. Kirk. The detachment now has support from Champlain Township, the United Counties of Prescott-Russell, and Glengarry-Prescott- Russell MPP Grant Crack for the application. – Gregg Chamberlain

ATV re-route report pending The ATV Club of Eastern Ontario wants to increase the number of user trails in the Larose Forest to allow riders route access to the Hamlet of Cheney in Clarence-Rockland and bypass the Clarence-Cambridge Road which runs through the community forest. The United Counties of Prescott-Russell is responsible for managing the community forest and Planning Director Louis Prévost will present counties planning and forestry advisory committee with a detailed report on the club’s proposal with his own recommendations. He has indicated during the committee’s Aug. 26 meeting brief that he would rather see the club make better use of an existing road allowance route already available in the forest. – Gregg Chamberlain Support for rape trauma aid project The Hawkesbury & District General Hospital is seeking financial aid from the province for a special trauma treatment service for victims of sexual assault, and it has the full support of the United Counties of Prescott-Russell council behind its effort. In a letter to counties council giving a brief outline of the project, hospital administration noted that the OPP statistics on sexual assault and related crimes for 2014 in the Prescott-Russell region listed 104 cases for the year, and the 2015 statistics to date are almost a match with 107 cases filed as of mid-November. Dr. Suzanne Filion, director for the hospital’s strategic and integrated program development, noted the statistics sup- port a pressing need for a comprehensive sexual trauma treatment unit that would be part of the hospital’s emergency department operations. The proposed centre would accommodate up to at least 80 victims of sexual assaultHospital administration is applying to the province for $250,000 in annual funding for a three-year term for the project. Counties council voted unanimous support for the hospital’s project during its Nov. 25 session. – Gregg Chamberlain

Following several complaints from residents on Stevens Street, Public Works Superintendant Alain Lavoie recommended reducing the speed on Stevens Street during construction at the Hawkesbury General Hospital, as well as amending the current traffic by-law. Town council agreed to temporarily amend the traffic by-law and reduce the speed limit on Stevens Street between Ghislain and Gerard streets from 50 km/h to 40 km/h.

Les SCPR inaugure leurs nouveaux bureaux ALEXANDRA MONTMINY alexandra.montminy@eap.on.ca

Plusieurs personnes se sont rassemblées afin de couper le ruban inaugurant officiel- lement les nouveaux bureaux des Services communautaires de Prescott et Russell, le mercredi 2 décembre dernier. Les nou- veaux locaux de l’organisme sont situés au 295, rueMainOuest et sont ouverts depuis le 24 octobre dernier. « Ça fait déjà quelques semaines que nous sommes installés ici, prêts à servir notre clientèle », a expliqué la directrice générale, Sylvie Leclair, à propos des nouveaux locaux de l’organisme, qui se trouvaient auparavant au deuxième étage du centre commercial du Hawkesbury Centre. « Le déménagement nous a amené beau- coup d’avantages. D’abord, la superficie est plus grande, ce qui nous permettra d’offrir des services mieux adaptés et à un plus grand nombre de personnes, notamment lors des activités du programme de jour. Ensuite, les locaux sont beaucoup plus accessibles du fait que tout est sur le même plancher. Nous avons également des toilettes adaptées aux fauteuils roulants. Finalement, le fait d’être situé sur la rue Main nous apportera certainement une meilleure visibilité », a affirmé Mme Leclair. Avec près de 480 bénévoles à travers tout Prescott-Russell, la directrice se dit très heureuse de ce déménagement. « Ce qui est beau à voir aussi, c’est le sentiment d’appartenance et de fierté que ressentent les bénévoles. Ce qu’ils font pour la commu- nauté est tellement incroyable », a-t-elle dit. Avant la coupe officielle du ruban, plu- sieurs discours ont été prononcés. « Nous sommes très heureux d’avoir des locaux accessibles », a dit Jeannine Racine, la prési- dente du conseil d’administration des SCPR. « L’inauguration des nouveaux bureaux permettra de donner des services plus adé- quats pour notre communauté », a ajouté le député fédéral Francis Drouin. « Merci de redonner la joie et la fierté aux personnes âgées », a poursuivi Lise Desforges, la repré- sentante du député provincial Grant Crack. De son côté, Robert Kirby a déclaré que « les personnes âgées constituent une partie substantielle de la population des Comtés Unis » et s’est dit très fier des SCPR. La mai- resse de Hawkesbury, Jeanne Charlebois, a conclu que « les Services communautaires de Prescott et Russell sont partout, dans toutes les sphères de la communauté ». Elle a remis une plaque honorifique àMme Leclair. King and Peter needs a stop At the Champlain council meeting held November 11, council member Marc Seguin suggested a stop sign be placed on the corners of King and Peter streets in L’Orignal. “The traffic there is just terrible,” said Seguin. “The traffic just flies by. Council member Helene MacLeod said it was difficult to exit a driveway in that area because of the traffic. Mayor Gary Barton said a stop sign was a county issue and he would put in a request for a stop sign with the county. – Diane Hunter

Drink and Doodle

DIANE HUNTER diane.hunter@eap.on.ca

“I went to one near Lake George,” she explai- ned. “He had 40 people. It was fantastic. I was with a whole table of friends and we had a lot of fun. They do this class all over in the cities. No one seems to be doing it here, so I thought I could do this. I saw a need and I started a class.” Turpin took art classes in elementary and high school, and then studied art at Vanier College inMontreal. “I’ve done it all my life,” Turpin said with a smile. “For the past seven years I’ve been doing it profes- sionally with a teacher. Linda Scott Harris has been teachingme. She is a professional

Lorie Turpin said she has been an artist forever. “I think I was born an artist,” she said. “I have always loved drawing. Kin- dergarten was my favourite class because we could do art all day long.” Turpin was born in Toronto and moved to the Vankleek Hill area in 1975. “This is home,” said Turpin. “I have been here so long now. I love it here.” Turpin started a Drink and Doodle class not long ago, after attending one in the U.S.

Lorie Turpin offers a Drink and Doodle class a few times a year, much to the delight of her students.

artist and photographer fromHawkesbury. She’s been pushing me, so I have to grow. I have to get better.” “I have been painting since I can remem- ber. Mymother used to take us for walks with our sketchbooks. We would go out and just draw and colour the scenery. It was such a great thing.” Turpin has three children, Nicholas, and Michael who share a home in Ottawa, and Andrea who works at the hospital and is living with Turpin and her husband Gay- tan. “I love cooking and I have a garden,” said Turpin. “I am very busy. There never seems to be enough time.” Turpin also owns a rescue dog. “She is the sweetest thing,” said Turpin. “She is a Doberman, but she wouldn’t hurt a fly.” Turpin started the Drink and Doodle classes earlier this year, trying different venues to suit her needs. Her latest class was held at the Assaly Arcade onNovember 25. “I just heard about it and thought it was fun,” said Dorothy McRae Golden. “I can’t make a stick figure so I’m expecting a lot from this class.” Turpin’s latest class painted Starry Night with a twist. “It’s a lot of fun,” said Lana Barnes. “I saw an ad for this on Facebook. I told Lorie I can’t draw, and she said you don’t need to. I’m in for the drinks, not sure about the doodle. We are so blessed to have Lorie do this for us here. We don’t have to

drive all the way to Ottawa.This is awesome. It’s so wonderful to have this in our area.” “Students come in and get a glass of wine, a canvas, and some paint. They just follow what I am doing, and are often surprised at what they can do. Some people start the class so nervous,” laughed Turpin. “They are so impressed when they are finished and they get to take their painting home. I have a few people that return. I hope to get a following.” Turpin said she will also hold a Drink and Doodle class at private parties. “It’s a different kind of party,” she said. “People can have a Drink and Doodle for an office party or birthday party. They supply the drinks and snacks and I supply everything else.” “I’d really like to get known as an artist,” said Turpin. “I do reproductions of master- pieces. I ampretty good. At least people tell me I am good. So if anyone wants a Rem- brandt or a Monet, they can get one for a lot less.” Turpin has exhibited her paintings at Le Chenail,The Arbor Gallery, at Chute-à-Blon- deau for a Christmas Craft Fair, and at Knox Church for the All Things Bright and Beau- tiful event. She hopes to be able to display her artwork inmuch bigger venues at some time in the near future. “This is somuch fun,” said Turpin. “I feel that I ammeant for this. I would like an exhibit at one of the big art galleries in the city.”
