Dans la peau d’un prisonnier Photo: Marie-Charlotte Paquette En 1800, le pilori avait pour but de punir et d’humilier celui ou celle ayant commis un crime. Pour Richard et Odette Brunet, c’est une façon unique de poser pour une photo et de faire rire leurs amis.

Lac Mégantic: What if it happened here? RICHARD MAHONEY richard.mahoney@eap.on.ca thought to what is being transported through our communities,” observed Ché- nier.
nier. “What products are being transported through our municipalities? Are they dan- gerous? What do we do if, for example, there is an ammonia spill? If we had that type of information, at least we could en- sure that our emergency response plans would be able to deal with it.” Former economic development director with the town of Hawkesbury, Chénier not- ed that as municipalities continue to seek new industries, train traffic will increase. “The trend is towards trains because it is an affordable means of transportation. As that trend continues, the risks will also in- crease,” he said. Access to tracks is one of the assets of the former Amoco Fabrics and Fibers plant, Chénier observed. No hazardous materials are transported into town by rail, Hawkesbury Fire Chief Ghislain Pigeon reported. If new industries arrive, that could change. In-town train traffic is light. Once every two weeks, a shipment of plastic pellets is delivered by train to Les Cruchons J.U.G.S. factory on Cameron Street. Based in Vankleek Hill, the Ontario- L’Orignal Railway Company transports freight along a 34-kilometre Canadian Na- tional line between Glen Robertson and Hawkesbury. It serves the Ivaco steel mill with a 6.5-kilometre spur line between Hawkesbury and L’Orignal.
As many as six freight and passenger trains travel through Casselman every day. Passenger and cargo train lines also run through other area communities, such as Alexandria and Maxville. No crude oil, which fueled the Lac Mé- gantic inferno, is carried on railway lines that enter area railway towns. But Canadian National, Canadian Pacific and Maine Montréal Maine and Atlantic Railways Inc., the company whose cars de- railed in Lac Mégantic, do transport oil by rail on tracks that travel through this dis- trict en route to Montréal and then on to east coast refineries. In the aftermath of the tragedy, munici- pal officials are looking at ways to get more information on the contents of freight cars travelling through their municipalities, and to better prepare for train-related disasters. One freight train goes through Cas- selman daily. However, Chénier not- ed that municipalities are not rou- tinely advised of the nature of the products that are being transported. Municipal representatives are hoping to ar- range a meeting with the Ontario Ministry of Transportation to explore methods of improving the flow of train-related infor- mation to municipalities. “There is a con- stant exchange of information, but there is no train service is nebulous,” allowed Ché-
“Everybody was asking the same ques- tion when we got to work that Monday. What if that happened here?’” Marc Chénier, chief administrative offi- cer of the Village of Casselman, echoed the sentiments of many in the wake of the July 6 train derailment in Lac Mégantic. Public officials across the district are looking at train services in a different way following the freight train derailing which resulted in the obliteration of the down- town area of the small Québec town. “Nobody was impassive. Before that, I don’t think many people gave much

Ottawa woman killed in crash on Highway 417
VANKLEEK HILL | An Ottawa woman has been identified as the victim of a fatal single-vehicle accident which oc- curred Tuesday on Highway 417 west of Vankleek Hill. Inas Naseif Bolus, 47, was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident while a 15-year-old male passenger was trans- ported to Ottawa with serious injuries. The victim was driving a westbound 2001 Sub-
aru at about 3:15 p.m. July 16 when the vehicle left the roadway and went into a ditch, reports the Stormont-Dundas- Glengarry Ontario Provincial Police de- tachment. A section of the highway be- tween Highland Road and County Road 34 was closed for about six hours. SD&G O.P.P. members and Technical Traffic Collision investigators continue the investigation.

Saison sans précédent pour L’Ancienne prison
de s’impliquer dans la logistique des événe- ments et des expositions, dans la recherche et dans d’autres domaines. Petit musée, gros défis «On n’a pas beaucoup de matériel de re- cherche, ce qui complique notre tâche», af- firme M. Larocque. Certains documents au- raient été oubliés, perdus, détruits oumême ramenés chez les gens après la fermeture de la prison. «Certaines personnes pour- raient être gênées de rapporter ce qu’ils ont à la maison; mais on les attend à bras ou- vert. Ça nous aiderait tellement d’avoir plus d’indices», ajoute le coordonnateur. Par ail- leurs, les témoignages d’anciens employés et d’anciens détenus contribuent à la mise à jour de l’histoire de l’édifice patrimonial. Le plus grand défi de l’ancienne prison serait cependant le financement, selon M. Larocque. L’organisation est toujours
à la recherche d’investisseurs, de dona- teurs et de commanditaires. De plus, pour s’autofinancer, l’Ancienne prison offre un service de location de salle et s’est associée au Café entre deux barreaux, qui est situé dans le même édifice. Des activités sont au programme toutes
les fins de semaine, en plus des représenta- tions de la pièce «La dernière pendaison» à guichet fermé. «C’est le bouche à oreille qui a fait du nom de l’Ancienne prison de L’Ori- gnal un nom de qualité», croit M. Larocque. La programmation estivale est disponible au www.villagedelorignal.ca/

L’ORIGNAL | La popularité de la plus an- cienne prison en Ontario est à la hausse, depuis son ouverture le 1er juin. Les ad- ministrateurs du lieu historique sont ra- vis; pour le mois de juin, l’achalandage est passé de 81 visiteurs, en 2012, à 201 en 2013. Les statistiques des mois à venir s’annoncent tout aussi positives. «Si on veut maintenir ça, il faut des gens qui s’impliquent dans la prison», affirme le coordonnateur, Mario Larocque. Selon lui, les bénévoles jouent un rôle primordial dans le roulement de la prison. «Pour eux, je veux que ce soit comme un passe-temps», explique-t-il. Les bénévoles sont bienvenus
Visiteurs-«détenus» recherchés
de poules, un cambriolage, un meurtre, etc. Les visiteurs qui ont bon caractère pour- ront être récompensés et, ceux qui ont la langue bien pendue, pourrait se retrouver au trou. Même si la porte ne se barre plus, cette pièce obscure devrait corriger les plus coriaces. «Il y a aussi la thérapie de groupe. Ça peut devenir hilarant quand les gens expliquent les motivations de leur person- nage», croit M. Larocque. «Les gens peuvent aussi dîner en cellule, soit un repas préparé au Café entre deux barreaux ou un pique- nique qu’ils ont apporté», ajoute-t-il. Ceux qui veulent faire l’expérience d’une époque précise, variant entre 1825 et 1998, peuvent aussi en faire la demande. Les groupes d’un maximum de 15 personnes qui veulent s’inscrire doivent réserver quelques jours à l’avance au 613 675-4661. Pour plus d’information, le site Internet de l’Ancienne prison de L’Orignal a été réamé- nagé, au www.villagedelorignal.ca.

L’ORIGNAL | Les visiteurs de l’Ancienne prison de L’Orignal peuvent maintenant passer une journée dans la peau d’un prisonnier. Dans ce jeu de rôle, le groupe de visiteurs/détenus devra se plier aux ordres des gardiens de prison/guides, et pourra visiter la prison sous un angle com- plètement différent. «Notre but est d’ajouter une activité ou une exposition différente tous les ans, pour que les visiteurs veuillent revenir», explique le coordonnateur de l’Ancienne prison, Ma- rio Larocque. Avec leur groupe d’amis, les visiteurs arriveront à la prison puis pren- dront connaissance du dossier de leur per- sonnage. Ensuite, les prisonniers devront répondre de leurs actes antérieurs; un vol

East Hawkesbury line depends on market RICHARD MAHONEY RICHARD.MAHONEY@EAP.ON.CA
A worrisome buzz
sensitivities, land use compatibility, eco- nomics, vegetation, archeological and his- torical sites, as well as stakeholder and Ab- original community input.” Open house in September TransCanada will hold a public meeting on its plan September 5, from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Chute-à-Blondeau community centre to discuss the plan. “The project is in its preliminary stage because even the rout- ing is unconfirmed. Nonetheless, TransCan- ada’s experience requires them to engage the public sooner than later,” according to a notice from the company. TransCanada’s Energy East project would move between 500,000 and 850,000 bar- rels of crude oil a day from Alberta and Sas- katchewan to Eastern Canadian refineries. It would use 3,000 kilometres of existing pipelines for most of the proposed route. Construction of 1,400 kilometres of new pipelines would fill in gaps between the existing pipeline systems in Alberta, Sas- katchewan and Eastern Ontario. Subject to the approval of the National Energy Board, the new route would be ready for shipping crude oil by late 2017 to Québec refineries and by 2018 to refineries in New Brunswick. Many area residents have already ex- pressed concerns about the existing En- bridge line that is located immediately east of the Ontario-Québec border, east of Con- cession 7 in East Hawkesbury. Les Citoyens AuCourant, a group of citizens from the Rigaud area, has been working to inform the public about a plan to bring vast quantities of oil from the Alberta tar sands through their municipalities. Information sessions have been held on the proposal to reverse the flow in the Enbridge 9B pipeline.
Another close, muggy day, and you can almost hear the corn and soybeans grow- ing. You can also sense that a storm is brew- ing over the latest attempt to pinpoint the cause of honey bee colony collapse, an issue that, without being overdramatic, could affect the global food supply. The insecticide used in corn and soybean production may be killing bees. Without bees, there is no pollination, which means that about 70 per cent of the world’s food supply would disappear. But without pesticides, crop yields would drop, and the price of our food will sky- rocket. The Canadian bee population has decreased by about 35 per cent in the past three years. Such disturbing figures have prompted the Ontario government to form a working group that will recommend measures to reduce the impact the pesti- cide neonicotinoid has on honey bees. A link between the application of insec- ticides and high bee mortality rates was established by Health Canada’s Pest Man- agement Regulatory Agency. Last year, the PMRA looked into honey bee mortality reports from Ontario, Qué- bec, Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia. “The information evaluated suggests that planting of corn seeds treat- ed with the nitro guanidine insecticides clothianidin and/or thiamethoxam contrib- uted to the majority of the bee mortalities that occurred in corn growing regions of Ontario and Quebec in spring 2012. The likely route of exposure was insecticide contaminated dust generated during the planting of treated corn seed. The unusual weather conditions in the spring of 2012 were likely also a contributing factor,” reads the report. A portion of the mortalities was deter- mined to be associated with spray drift, however, an unusually high number of reports of honey bee mortalities was re- ceived from beekeepers in corn-growing regions of Ontario and Québec. Weather conditions in the areas where beekeepers were affected were unusual in spring 2012. It was warmer and drier than
normal, corn planting began two to three weeks ahead of schedule, at the same time bees were foraging. The PMRA relates that measures have been implemented to re- duce honey bee exposure to dust gener- ated during planting of treated corn seed. These steps include labelling of treated seed, a treated seed dust standard, and de- velopment of technical solutions to reduce dust. “Additionally, the nitro-guanidine neonicotinoids have been placed under re-evaluation and further regulatory action will be taken if required,” the agency says. The products have been banned by the European Union, which has imposed a con- tinent-wide two-year moratorium on neo- nicotinoids. But so far, nothing has been done to ban the use of neonicotinoids in Canada, much to the chagrin of environ- mental groups and the Ontario Beekeepers’ Association. Insecticides join the long list of possible bee colony collapse causes. Some of the possible culprits are cell phones, ge- netically modified crops, pollution, radia- tion, a parasite, or a combination of some or all of these factors. In many people’s minds, insecticides are the number 1 en- emy of pollinators. A ban on all chemicals is a logical step, for the long-term interests of our planet, and the interests of food producers. Better alternatives to neonic- otinoids are available; environmentally- friendly treatments would create more healthy pollinators. On the other side of the fence, the chemical industry cautions that new restrictions will encourage a return to older, more dangerous insecticides and result in crop losses, lower revenues and higher food costs. And then there is the group that contends that any government control is too much government control. Anyway, the Ontario government’s group will consist of scientists, beekeepers, farm- ers, people in agri-business and federal and provincial representatives. The goal is have recommendations in front of the government by next spring. As the debate over chemicals and colonies warms up, it is refreshing to consider that a little bee can create such a buzz.
ST-EUGÈNE | No buyers, no new crude oil pipeline in East Hawkesbury. That is the situation as TransCanada Corporation continues to do ground work for a proposed new national pipe- line that would run through Eastern On- tario. “Very preliminary” is how East Hawkes- bury chief administrative officer Linda Rozon describes the proposal. Township representatives recently met with Trans- Canada, an Alberta-based energy com- pany that has indicated East Hawkesbury may be along the route for a proposed 4,400-kilometre pipeline to move crude oil from Alberta and Saskatchewan to Eastern Canada. Landowners have been approached to sign agreements enabling the company to conduct soil tests along the proposed route, which would follow the path of the existing Enbridge line. The idea has raised concerns among some residents. But the plan will be shelved if the cor- poration cannot seal deals with refiner- ies. The company is holding a “binding open season”to get “firm long-term com- mitments from interested parties for the pipeline.” The corporation recently said in an e- mail to the Tribune-Express, “The exact route of the pipeline has yet to be de- termined and will be subject to market demand. In determining a final route for the proposed project, we will continue to consider a number of factors including safety, constructability, environmental
The Enbridge line runs just east of Concession 7 in East Hawkesbury.

Cat by-law scratched Roaming cats in Champlain Township may be a problem but it is not an issue the municipality is about to tackle. The suggestion of imposing new restrictions on fe- lines was raised by Mayor Gary Barton at a recent council meeting. Members briefly discussed the idea of introducing a tag system, similar to the one that exists for dogs. Citizens complain about loose cats and people who feed strays. However, as Barton observed, council members are not keen on implementing stricter cat curbs.

démolition a commencé vers la fin du mois de juin. Une fois la démolition complétée, il faudra un autre mois pour nettoyer le ter- rain. «Il n’y avait pas de demande pour l’édifice», explique M. Assaly. Asco n’a pas de plans précis pour le site, mais la compag- nie penche vers un mélange d’usages rési- dentiel et commercial. Un tel mélange est préconisé dans l’élaboration du plan straté- gique de la ville. L’usine a été construite en 1968 et a com- mencé sa production sous le nom de Du- plate en 1969. À l’époque, le fabricant de pare-brises employait 600 personnes sur ses trois chaînes de production. La fermeture de l’opération de PGW au

HAWKESBURY | Un gros morceau de l’histoire de Hawkesbury est en train de disparaître et sera bientôt un souvenir. La démolition de l’ancienne usine Pitts- burgh Glass Works, mieux connue comme «Duplate», doit être complétée vers la fin du mois d’août, relate le président d’Asco Construction, Anthony Assaly. La firme locale, qui a acheté le site de 60 acres l’an dernier, a embauché une compag- nie de Toronto afin de démolir l’édifice qui a une superficie de 405 000 pieds carrés. La

gŏđŏ editionap.ca Hawkesbury won’t reverse one-way section
one-way would be easily implemented, the firm found. “In a nutshell, a return to a bi-directional street for Régent is risky and would strictly limit traffic of heavy vehicles needed for its commercial purposes,” the town’s adminis- trator, Jean-Yves Carrier, noted in a report to council. “The reversed one-way requires either land expropriation or restricting right turns to trucks. The only solution that offers maximum traffic flexibility, safest passage and unrestricted commercial traffic use is the existing one-way.” Mayor René Berthiaume, Councillors Michel Beaulne, Alain Fraser and Marc
McGill to Stanley Streets into a one-way eastbound street. Since that move in Octo- ber, the municipality has been under pres- sure to alter the decision. Dépanneur owner Ataur Khan has complained that his sales have dropped by 20 per cent and the Mc- Gill-Régent intersection has become even more dangerous since the change went into effect. However, Roger Quesnel, senior technol- ogist with Ainley Graham & Associates Lim- ited, has concluded the town either keeps the one-way section or re-establish the section as a two-way street but ban large trucks from Régent entirely. A westbound
Tourangeau voted to ratify the recommen- dation. Councillors André Chamaillard, Jo- hanne Portelance and Michel Thibodeau voted against. Portelance regretted that a business had suffered because of the decision, which she said was not properly advertised. Thibodeau said if the Régent Street solution was applied elsewhere in town, “We would have one-way streets ev- erywhere.”Chamaillard also questioned the logic behind the move. “Régent Street has been there for 100 years, how many acci- dents have occurred there?” Fraser observed that at a recent public meeting, residents agreed that the inter- section was safer now for elderly pedestri- ans. All clear, or not? RICHARD MAHONEY RICHARD.MAHONEY@EAP.ON.CA VANKLEEK HILL | A developer hopes to build houses on the site of the former Norda spice extraction operation in Vankleek Hill. But first, Les Entreprises H.D.J.S. Gascon Limitée must prove that the land on Main Street is free of pollution – again. The for- mer owner had carried out a clean-up on the property, however, Les Entreprises Gascon has been advised by the province that it must demonstrate the land is safe for residential development. “The applicant submitted a letter from the Ministry of the Environment that the site has been decontaminated,” plan- ner Dominique Lefebvre told Champlain Township council recently. “However, af- ter discussion with the Cornwall office they confirmed that a record of site condi- tion demonstrating that this property can accommodate residential uses has to be submitted. The reason being that the for- mer company did not conduct decontam- ination in order to allow residential uses.” Mayor Gary Barton believes the require- ment is excessive. “Is it contaminated or not? The developer already has got clear- ance, now he is being told that he has to spend another $10,000 on a study,” said Barton. He recalled that long-time residents never had issues with the by-products created by the spice extracting and food flavouring plant. In fact, one material aid- ed plant growth. “We would that stuff on the garden and it grew like hell,” Barton remarked. The original Norda business operated under different names between the 1940s and 1993, when the large red brick build- ings on Farmers Avenue was mothballed. The structures on the two-acre site were demolished in 2009. The developer must fulfill several other requirements before a zoning change can be approved and the plan to build single detached dwellings can proceed. Gascon must show that the subdivision will not affect fish habitat. In addition to studies on storm water management and traffic, a study of noise and vibration is needed because of the property’s proxim- ity to railway tracks.
