Thirst for fresh water could leave Canada feeling dry

He was charged with three counts of failing to co m pl y with an undertaking be- fore an officer in charge. He was held in custod y pending an appearance in Corn- wall court. Caught in the act Cornwall police caught a burglar red- handed when he was found inside a res- idence in the 100 block of Prince Arthur Street on May 11. The m an was found in the house b y po- lice after responding to a co m plaint of a break-and-enter in progress. Eric Deschesnes, 36 of Cornwall, is charged with break and enter and co m - m itting an indictable offence. He was re- leased but m ust appear in court on June 6.

Please see CITY WOMAN: Page 4 class, he began focusing on a cheap, eas y to use water tester for developing countries. But what began as a si m ple water-testing device evolved into a cutting edge m achine that can instantl y rela y water test infor m a- tion an y where in the world through the use of m obile co mm unication technolog y . The inventor of the device, aptl y na m ed the Water Canar y , envisions a da y where an y one around the world can see water hot spots with just the touch of the screen. “I want people to know about water,” he in- sists. It would be a lifeti m e’s work, but the high-profile, last- m inute guest speaker at The St. Lawrence River Institute of Environ- m ental Sciences 20 th annual international river s ym posiu m , hopes enough data could be collected to create an interactive water qualit y database m uch like Google Maps. “I’d like to call it a weather service for wa- ter we’re tr y ing to build,” he explained. “Our job will be done if we have a m ap of all the world’s fresh water and what is in it.” Luthra, a fellow with the non-profit or- ganization Technolog y , Entertain m ent, De- sign, which is called TED for short, ended up in Cornwall after he was brought to Canada b y the United States e m bass y to pro m ote his invention. Luthra is the CEO and co-founder of Wa- ter Canar y , a co m pan y seeking to transfor m the fight against waterborne illness and water-related e m ergencies with real-ti m e water qualit y infor m ation. According to his biography, h is co m pan y is developing a si m ple, open-source, device that quickl y and cheapl y deter m ines when water can’t be trusted so that actions can be taken to secure water supplies and prevent the spread of pollution and disease.

A resource often taken for granted in Canada could be eyed with the same envy as oil has been the past four or more de- cades, according to the American inventor of a revolutionary water-testing device Sonaar Luthra, who was guest speaker last Wednesda y evening at the first da y of the St. Lawrence River Institute’s two- da y annual international river s ym posiu m , said there are alread y conflicts over water throughout the world. If cli m ate change results in increasing water shortages south of the border, there could be pressure on Canada to share its precious resource, Luthra said in an inter- view with The Journal . “There won’t be enough water in the states to m eet the de m ands of the popu- lation,” said Luthra. “We don’t know how weather patterns are going to change.” Then Canadians will be faced with m ak- ing tough decisions about how m uch wa- ter the countr y is willing to export without jeopardizing its precious natural resource. Luthra, the inventor of real-ti m e water- testing technolog y , is a for m er journalist and educator who had an abrupt change in career paths after enrolling in NYU’s fa m ed Interactive Teleco mm unications Progra m . He originall y planned on focusing on soft- ware develop m ent at the renowned breed- ing ground for cross-disciplinar y thinking, but instead “fell in love” with the language of circuitr y . “It just felt fairl y destined,” he re- called.

Shelved Lookout Point plan may be back on the table For m er waterfront develolp m ent co mm ittee m e m ber Bill Beattie, right, e x plains the historical significance of Pointe Maligne to co mm ittee m e m bers Thursday evening as Chair Lee Cassidy, and city planner Stephen Ale x ander look on.

Cit y planner Stephan Alexander had al- read y begun work on the plan in earl y 2010, and a contract for initial Lookout Point work was awarded in October 2010 b y cit y council to MMM Group Li m ited to provide three design concepts to bring to the “pub- lic, stakeholders and waterfront co mm ittee m eetings”, according to waterfront co mm it- tee m inutes fro m Nov. 25, 2010. But the new waterfront co mm ittee – re- constituted in line with the new ter m of council -- began distancing itself fro m the develop m ent shortl y after the new council began its new ter m in Dece m ber 2011. At a Jan. 13, 2011 m eeting, Ro y Perkins m oved a m otion, seconded b y Gu y Menard, “that the Waterfront Co mm ittee dela y an y further discussions on Park and Landscape Design for Lookout Point/Pointe Maligne” until a special co mm ittee m eeting one week later. The Lookout Point plan was scrapped b y the waterfront co mm ittee in June 2011, de- spite the fact the co mm ittee had alread y spent m one y developing a proposal for the site and that it had received approval fro m Cornwall cit y council. At the Jan. 20 special m eeting, Eric Lang m oved a m otion seconded b y Councillor Denis Thibault, that the co mm ittee defer consultations on the proposal “until the y have taken the ti m e to look at other op- tions such as develop m ent of areas along the park with the intent to have a balance of co mm ercial and parkland.” At a m eeting of the waterfront co mm ittee on June 16, 2011, Perkins m oved a m otion seconded b y Menard that “ad m inistration write a report to cit y council to advise that the waterfront co mm ittee does not wish to take an y further action on the Request for Proposal # 10-R for Park Design for ‘Lookout Pointe/Pointe Maligne’ and wishes to close the file for the ti m e being.”

After striking out with a contentious con- do plan and a beach inlet for Lamoureux Park, a project shelved by the city’s Water- front Development Committee two years ago is back on the radar. The co mm ittee is once again considering a proposal to convert Lookout Point, also known as Point Maligne, adjacent to the ball fields east of Marina 200, into a local tourist attraction. For m er waterfront co mm ittee m e m ber Bill Beattie m ade a length y presentation about the historical significance of the point to waterfront co mm ittee m e m bers Thursda y evening. The previous waterfront co mm ittee had been working on turning the point into a historic tourist attraction, but that plan was scrapped b y the new co mm ittee in earl y 2011 to pursue a plan for condos next to the Cornwall Civic Co m plex in La m oureux Park. Beattie told the co mm ittee the point has i m portant historical significance because it was the first m eeting point between Sir John Johnson, who wanted to surve y the area to eventuall y beco m e Cornwall, and First Nations peoples. “Pointe Maligne has a line of site un- equalled in an y other area of the Cornwall waterfront,” said Beattie, adding it should be developed “but not necessaril y to be planned as y ou m ight envision it to be.” Co mm ittee chair Lee Cassid y said the pre- sentation revealed to co mm ittee m e m bers “a good idea of how i m portant this little piece of land is.” She added that “ m a y be so m e develop m ent of so m e historical” sig- nificance can take place at the site.

Perkins, Cornwall’s Citizen of the Year in 2006, stepped up to the plate and for the past eight years and has been involved with the Cornwall Community Hospital Founda- tion.

is one of three boys. One of his most inspi- rational moments as a child was riding the family pony for the first time.Being he was the youngest in his family, Perkins was the last one to learn to ride a horse, but as he re- calls this taught him that you can do almost anything if you try hard enough. In 1976, Perkins moved to Cornwall and he started studying carpentry at St. Law- rence College. Back then Perkins did not realize where this venture would take him,

only that he enjoyed carpentry and had a skill. He never thought that he would one day own a business until he started to work in one. “Working at Menard’s I really enjoyed helping people, and when I was 25 I was working 55 hours per week, so I said to the owners of the business, ‘If I am going to work these extra hours I might as well work

for myself’. . . so I shared that I would like to buy a part of the business.” “Now as owner I work 60 – 65 hours per week. It’s a big commitment but it’s very re- warding.” The hardest part of getting things just right in his business is change, Perkins said. “The one constant is change.

The very successful farce “ No Sex Please, We’re British” presented by the Seaway Valley Theatre Company, delighted audi- ences at Dream Builder Studios for their opening performance this weekend. The show, written by Anthony Marriott and Alistair Foot, had all the makings of a side-splitting comedy, complete with mis- taken identities, trumped up schemes, mad- cap antics, hysterical cover-ups, romance, and the right ingredients to keep the audi- ence laughing and left them wanting more. In essence it is suspicion made funny in the style of Benny Hill. The key to successfully performing British comedy is the timing, and with this production the performers have it in spades. Set Windsor, England, in the 1970’s, the play takes place in the apartment of new- lyweds Frances (Krystal Taillon) and Peter Hunter (Michael Petrynka), who live up- stairs from the bank that he manages. Fran- ces innocently sends off a mail-order for some Scandinavian glassware but receives instead numerous boxes of pornographic materials. The couples seek assistance from their muddled and clumsy friend Brian Run- nicies (Grant Reso) an assistant at the bank to help them dispose of the unwanted ma- terials. Needless to say the hilarity ensues and things go terribly wrong as Peter’s mother, his boss, a visiting bank inspector, some call girls, and a police superintendent show up unexpectedly causing mayhem for the trio. The play is full of sexual innuendos, making it all the more hilarious. Director Dave Barnes has chosen an ex- ceptional cast to bring the hilarious farce to life. The roles call for as much physi- cal responses and exact timing as acting skills. The entire cast performed at a high energy level throughout, using both vocal and physical comedy as they pursued each other, eluded pursuit, and slammed doors. Reso in the role of the misinformed and nervous Brian Runnicies gave a brilliant performance, bringing out a natural ease and familiarity of how to play his role. Reso, a newcomer to the stage, became com- pletely absorbed in his character. “I really enjoyed the physicality of the part. I have always wanted to do physical humour and I enjoyed this part. I felt very comfortable in this role.” Veteran actor Michael Petrynka as Peter Hunter also gave a strong performance in his role, and along with Reso added to the outrageous comedy and hysteria, while keeping the pace of the show going. The show runs now through May 25th with evening and matinee performances. Tickets are available at Cornwall Square Ad- min office at 613-938-2118.

En signant la lettre de proclamation de la journée du 25 mai comme Journée des en- fants et adultes disparus, le maire Bob Kilger

a laissé entendre qu’il accordait une impor- tance particulière à ce dossier qui concer- nait toutes les familles, voire toute la com- munauté; ce qui explique son engagement personnel et celui des élus locaux aux côtés de l’AEAD pour la tenue de l’événement. C’était suite à l’enlèvement du petit Etan Patz, le 25 mai 1979, que les États-Unis ont décidé de consacrer un jour en hom-

La manifestation de cette année intervi- ent dans un contexte d’autant plus particu- lier que trois jeunes femmes séquestrées à Cleveland aux États-Unis pendant 10 ans ont été retrouvées. Un événement qui con- forte M. Bédard dans l’idée, qu’en cas de disparition d’une personne, il ne faut jamais perdre espoir, ne jamais baisser les bras et continuer les recherches. Avec son équipe, le natif de Trois-Rivières, qui a mis au point l’un des tous premiers sites Internet de recherches d’enfants au Canada, a déclaré avoir adressé une lettre à la police de Cleveland en Ohio, dans laquelle il a souhaité une véritable prise en charge psychologique des femmes retrou- vées et l’ouverture d’une enquête publique.

La Ville de Cornwall apporte son soutien à l’Association des enfants et adultes dis- parus. Le maire Bob Kilger a remis, le 14 mai, dans les locaux de la mairie, à Jean Bédard, président de l’AEAD, le document par lequel le conseil municipal a proclamé le 25 mai Journée nationale des enfants et adultes disparus. À cette occasion, l’association que dirige Jean Bédard va organiser, les 23, 24 et 25 mai au centre commercial Cornwall Square, une semaine de campagne pour sensibiliser les parents au phénomène de la disparition des enfants, mieux les préparer à faire face à cette problématique dont 95% des cas seraient causés par des séparations.

trée, un kiosque.» Hospice Cornwall est une résidence qui accueille les patients en phase terminale. Avec ses 10 chambres privées, il reçoit et offre des services à toutes les heures. «Si un malade décide de manger, de boire du thé à 2h ou à 3h du matin, on le sert, té- moigne Ray O’Collin, un des bénévoles. S’il veut avoir quelqu’un à côté pour lui tenir la main quand la fin approche ou lui dire des prières, on a ces personnes», informe M. O’Collin. Pour son bon fonctionnement, l’établis- sement a besoin chaque année de 1 M $, dont 475 000$ sont versés par le gouver- nement. Il revient alors à Hospice Cornwall d’aller chercher lui-même le reste du mon- tant, par le biais de diverses activités. C’est fort de cette réalité que le Comité Bingo a décidé de voler au secours de l’organisme, lui qui parvient à récolter, à tous les ans, la somme moyenne de 10 000$ pour le Centre Charles-Émile-Claude. «Sans cette activité-là, on aurait des dif- ficultés financières. C’est un gros support financier pour le Centre», reconnaît la direc-

Le Comité Bingo du Centre Charles-Émile- Claude a alloué une somme de 300$ à Hospice Cornwall. La cérémonie de remise du chèque a eu lieu le 8 mai, au siège de l’organisme où se tenait, au même mo- ment, une levée de fonds au profit de ce foyer de soins de fin de vie qu’administre Carefor. Les deux opérations ont permis de récolter 610$. C’est la première fois que le Comité Bingo donne à Hospice Cornwall une partie des profits de l’activité qu’il organise les lundis soir. «C’est extrêmement généreux de leur part, salue Linda Newman, directrice gé- nérale du Centre Charles-Émile-Claude. C’est un geste qu’on apprécie beaucoup.
