Ex-MP aims for Tory leadership?

the family in Canadian society. “Pierre is pro-life and believes in the sanctity of life from conception through to natural death,” states a backgrounder docu- ment entitled “Pierre Lemieux Leadership”, included with the email. “Pierre supports the traditional definition of marriage as the union between one man and one woman. Pierre believes that this leadership campaign offers a tremendous opportunity for people to get involved andmake their voices heard.” The backgrounder lists Lemieux’s other priorities as a leadership candidate, inclu- ding freedom of speech, religion and as- sembly, “a strong and healthy democratic process”, and havingMPs in office with high ethical standards who “display integrity, honesty, and concern for the best interests of Canadians.” Lemieux’s background as a former MP includes several parliamentary secretary
posts, including the one for the Ministry of Veterans Affairs. He is bilingual and served 20 years in the Canadian Armed Forces, retiring as a lieutenant-colonel. A certified professional engineer, including both a ba- chelor’s degree in engineering and a mas- ter’s degree in science, Lemieux managed his own engineering consultant firmbefore entering federal politics. Lemieux’s announcement makes him the seventh declared candidate for the Conser- vative leadership. Other declared candidates are: Maxime Bernier, Michael Chong, Tony Clement, Kellie Leitch, Deepak Obhrai, and Brad Trost. Political pundits speculate that former defenceminister Peter MacKay and other Tories like Lisa Raitt, Andrew Saxton, Andrew Scheer, and Erin O’Toole may also be considering entering the campaign. The federal Conservative leadership conference takes place in May 2017.
Stephen Harper has sat quiet in the backbenches on Parliament Hill since he led his party to defeat and lost his title as primeminister in the last federal election. Meanwhile the lineup of contenders wan- ting to be the new leader of the Conserva- tive Party and formerMP Pierre Lemieux’s name is now on that list. Lemieux, 53, held the Glengarry-Prescott- Russell riding for the Conservatives for the duration of the Harper government, taking it away from the Liberals in 2006, beating Liberal contender René Berthiaume by a narrow margin. Former Liberal MP Don Boudria had held the riding for 21 years before announcing his retirement in 2005. Francis Drouin regained the riding for the Liberals in the 2015 election. Now Lemieux is seeking support as a candidate for the federal Conservative lea- dership. He declared his candidacy in an email sent out August 22 to Conservative party supporters in the Glengarry-Prescott- Russell riding. A copy of the email was obtai- ned by national and regional media and in it Lemieux outlines his reasons for entering the leadership race. “There are many reason why”, stated Lemieux, “but a key one is that I feel that this is an extremely important time in the Conservative Party—both in terms of choo- sing a leader, but also in encouraging as
Social services finance report Prescott-Russell Community Services is doing well with its programs and accounts. The United Counties of Prescott-Russell council (UCPR) reviewed the fiscal year-end financial report for the regional non-profit agency during its Aug. 24 regular session. The UCPR is one of the contributors to the agency’s operations budget through an annual grant allocation in the counties’ budget. The agency’s financial report showed it finished the 2015-2016 fiscal year with a small surplus addi- tion to its overall net assets balance. The agency provides a number of programs and services for seniors and shut-ins living in the Prescott-Russell region, including foot care, home-maintenance aid, meals on wheels, caregiver service, day programs, and other services. The agency’s focus is to allow clients to continue independent living as long as possible and also remain in touch with their communities. – Gregg Chamberlain

Un cabinet d’avocats de Rockland victime de fraude
La cause est entendue le 1er septembre à Toronto. De son côté, Me Pierre R. Charron, qui a confirmé le tout, aurait bien voulu faire des commentaires sur cette affaire affirmant qu’il aurait bien des choses à dire s’il le pou- vait, mais l’étiquette veut que tant qu’une cause est pendante devant le Tribunal du Barreau, les victimes se doivent de rester discrètes, ce que Me Charron a fait dans le cas présent.
Me Stéphane J. Langlois doit comparaître devant le Tribunal du Barreau dans une affaire de fraude envers son propre cabinet d’avocats. ——photo d’archives Une ordonnance interlocutoire deman- dant la suspension du permis de pratiquer deMe Langlois a donc été émise. Selon l’avis demotion : « Il existe des motifs raisonnables de croire que le fait de ne pas suspendre le permis de l’avocat constitue un risque important de préjudice pour les membres du public ou pour l’intérêt qu’a le public à l’égard de l’administration de la justice.

Dans l’avis demotion du Tribunal du Barreau, on peut lire que : « Selon la liste de fiducie des clients de l’avocat, il devrait y avoir environ 4 millions $ dans ses comptes de fiducie. Cependant, selon ses relevés bancaires, ses comptes de fiducie ne contiennent qu’envi- ron 220 000 $. » Toujours selon l’avis demotion, Me Lan- glois a lui-même avoué à l’enquêteur du Barreau qu’il a dépensé à peu près 1million $ des fonds en fidéicommis pour son usage personnel et pour les frais généraux de de son cabinet juridique.

EOHU issues West Nile alert
TheWest Nile virus has been found in some mosquitoes in the EasternOntario region. But local health authorities say there is no cause for alarm. The Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) has a monitoring program in place to trap and examine samples of the local mosquito population for signs of the West Nile virus. Some of the latest samplings came back with positive test results but Dr. Paul Rou- meliotis, EOHU chief medical health officer, says residents should remain calm as there are still no reports of humans in the region infected with the disease. “The Eastern Ontario Health Unit has been actively monitoring mosquitoes for West Nile virus,” stated Dr. Roumeliotis in an EOHU press release. “This finding shows that West Nile virus remains a concern in our area. Most cases of West Nile virus infec- tions in humans actually occur between the months of August and October, so residents should be aware and take the necessary precautions to protect themselves and their families.” West Nile virus is passed on to humans from the bite of an infected mosquito. But not all mosquitoes are potential carriers. There are just a few types of mosquitoes which can carry the virus. Severity of infec- tion will vary between individuals, though for most people the risk of illness is low. A very small percentagemay be at risk of more severe results if they are not treated. To reduce the risk of West Nile virus, fol-
low standard precautions to prevent mos- quito bites. Use CSA-certified personal insect repellents which containDEET. Keep a light coating on the skin when going outside. Wear light-coloured clothing, including long-sleeved shirts and pants, and also wear socks when outside. Avoid going out at either dusk or dawn when mosquitoes are most active. To prevent mosquitoes from laying eggs near a house or outbuildings, make sure that any containers, including barrels, buc- kets, kiddie pools, saucers, used tires, and such are kept empty of standing water. Any ponds or puddles should be “salted” with an organic pesticide like Vectobac, which uses a bacterium that preys on mosquito larvae but is harmless to anything else. Also keep lawns trimmed short to reduce the amount of wet grass from dew or rainfall. Make sure all door and window screens are in good condition, with no holes, and that doors and window seals are intact to prevent mosquitoes getting inside the house. More information on West Nile virus and mosquito problem prevention is available at the EOHU website at www.eohu.ca or by phone, toll-free, to the Health Line at 1-800-267-7120.

Studying youth homelessness in Prescott-Russell
lot of available resources for youth in ho- meless situations. That is why she is pro- moting the 211 number, where people in distress can talk to someone and get directed to the right agency or service depending on the issue at hand. Castonguay’s mandate is to collect infor- mation and data to learn how social wor- kers and police officers cope with teens not having a home, or a home that is not a safe place for them to go back to. By doing this research, they want to confirm that youth homelessness is not only an issue in Pres- cott-Russell, but that it needs its own set of procedures and tools so that both, police officers and social workers can provide ser- vices to youth in homeless situations. This will be an ongoing research that will reveal clues on how to deal with youth homeless- ness in Prescott-Russell. Out of her small office space onHawkes- bury’s Main Street, Densmoremanages over $200,000 in funds that are redistributed amongst organizations engaged in fighting poverty and empowering women, youth and the elderly. Saying Densmore runs a small teamwould be an understatement. But although she manages most of the day-to- day by herself, she’s supported by an active administration board andmany volunteers, such as Castonguay, to push the boundaries of her mandate beyond fundraising
Who you gonna call? 211! There’s a new number in town and United Way of Prescott Russell’s executive director, Jodie Dens- more, really wants the community to remember. By calling 211, citizens will get to talk to a real person that can direct them towards the right organizations or people, to help them deal with whatever situation they are in. Vulnerable people in our community now have allies that are just a phone call away. Also, 211 can act as a crisis hotline, meaning that in the event of a catastrophe or tragedy, citizens can call that number to report or get information on the situation at hand. In other words, if someone is trying to break into someone’s house, they need to call 911, but if they feel alone, deprived or vulnerable, they can call 211. Help is just a phone call away. 613-850-5744 La maison du store par Danny & Sandra Décor Stores • Douches • Céramique • Peinture

The United Way discovered that some young people in Prescott-Russell are at risk of becoming homeless, were homeless or are homeless now. Getting into a fight with parents, having an alternative lifestyle or being in foster care can lead a youth to couch surf or live with boyfriends and girlfriends. “If you are 15, 16 or 17, you can’t access the services of a food bank because you need proof of address. Imagine the state of vulnerability these kids are in,” replied Densmore when asked why she chose youth homelessness as a cause. According to Densmore, there are not a

It will be a great help to families in our communities.” The UCPR is one of 22 social servicema- nagers in the province taking part in the two- year pilot program. Reports to the province fromall of the servicemanagers involved will help determine if the pilot programwill get extended after two years.

One way for victims of domestic violence to escape their situation is to find another, safer home away from the abuse.The pro- blem then is to find a place that is both far enough away andwithin their own budget plan. The United Counties of Prescott-Russell have now qualified as part of a two-year pilot project of the provincial government to help domestic violence victims find a decent and affordable place to live. “This is a very good thing,” said Anne Comtois-Lalonde, UCPR social services director. The UCPR will receive $240,000, over a two-year period, through provincial govern- ment’s Social Infrastructure Fund.The social services department can use the money to assist individuals or families trying to get away from domestic abuse situations by relocating.The department, working through referrals with its partner social service agen- cies and others, will deal on a case-by-case basis with each request for assistance. The money falls under the heading of housing allowance aid, and will go towards helping individuals or families with their rent payments for either existing subsidized housing which is available or those who have to rent from the private sector.

It wasn’t just the vehicle they were driving around in.The licence plate was also stolen. Five youths face several charges after leading police on a chase, on Monday of the long August weekend.The Hawkesbury OPP detachment received a call on Aug. 1st, from a patrol officer, about a possible stolen vehicle which also had a set of stolen licence plates. Const. Stéphanie Fortin-Provost first noticed the erratic driving pattern of the suspect vehicle, which suggested that the driver might be impaired. When she turned on her patrol car’s flashing roof lights, the vehicle sped off, clocking speeds up to 130
km/h in a posted 80 km/h zone. Police broke off pursuit under the cir- cumstances as the suspect vehicle’s speed and driving pattern created a risk for any passengers inside and also a public safety hazard for anyone else encountering it on the road. Later that night, the vehicle was spotted turning on to a dead-end street. The five occupants, all youths ranging in age from14 to 17, abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot. They were caught later on, still in the vicinity, and charged. Their names are withheld under the terms of the Youth Criminal Justice Act. They all face charges of possession of
stolen property, under a value of $5000. Two are also charged with failure to comply with previous release conditions. One is also charged with attempting to escape police pursuit and with dangerous driving. They were scheduled for youth court.

The nine-month-old murder case be- gan on Dec. 17, 2015, when the body of the 65-year-old Hatch was found east of Tenth Line, off of Wellington Road 124, near Erin in Wellington County. But he was last seen the day before at a Dollar Tree Store in the Ottawa area. Hatch was known to often hitchhike to get around. Whether that was how he travelled

Pour les élèves du CEPEO cependant, plu- sieurs ont fait la connaissance de nouveaux camarades de classe, soit les 170 nouveaux arrivants syriens qui vont recevoir leur édu- cation au sein de ce conseil dans les années à venir. Les écoles des conseils scolaires anglo- phones n’ouvrent leurs portes que la se- maine prochaine. Prudence sur les routes Les automobilistes sont invités à faire montre de prudence à l’approche des au- tobus scolaires. La police provinciale de l’Ontario tient à rappeler à tous que plu- sieurs autobus scolaires seront présents sur nos routes dès cette semaine. « Il est important de rappeler aux automobilistes de s’assurer de s’arrêter devant un autobus dont les clignotants rouges sont en fonction sous peine d’une amendeminimale de 400 $, mentionne le constable Mario Gratton du détachement de Hawkesbury. Plusieurs enfants se rendent à l’école à pied et ainsi le nombre d’élèves empruntant le corridor scolaire en est d’autant augmenté. Quelques
enfants peuvent être distraits par la fébrilité de la rentrée et il faut donc être vigilant en tant qu’automobiliste particulièrement près des zones scolaires », soutient M. Gratton. Si les limites de vitesse en zone scolaire sont réduites, les amendes elles, sont aug- mentées. « Elles sont clairement indiquées près des écoles et les automobilistes doivent s’attendre à une présence policière accrue. Il convient d’adapter sa conduite à la réalité de la rentrée et se ternir près à ralentir en zone scolaire et s’arrêter en présence d’autobus scolaires », insiste Mario Gratton. Comme pour les infractions touchant les autobus scolaires, les pénalités reliées aux excès de vitesse en zones scolaires sont d’autant augmentées. Soyons donc prudent, non seulement cette semaine alors que c’est la rentrée scolaire, mais en tout temps en présence d’autobus jaunes et à proximité des écoles. —Avec la participation de Stéphane For- tier PIEDS SENSIBLES!

Pour certains, c’est l’école qui commence. Pour d’autres c’est l’été qui se termine. Mais peu importe si on voit le verre àmoitié plein ou à moitié vide, c’est la rentrée scolaire pour les élèves francophones de la région. Mardi, plus de 10 000 élèves, répartis dans plus d’une vingtaine d’écoles élémentaires et secondaires répartis dans la région, et des centaines de l’école publique sont retournés à l’école. Le Conseil scolaire de district catholique de l’Est ontarien (CSDCEO) est le plus grand réseau d’écoles de langue française dans la région. Il détient donc le plus grand nombre d’inscriptions. D’après la surintendance du conseil, le taux d’inscriptions serait en hausse au CSDCEO, mais les données défi- nitives ne seront dévoilées qu’à l’automne. Il en va de même pour les élèves du Conseil des écoles publiques de l’Est de l’Ontario (CEPEO) qui figurent maintenant à 14 500 élèves dans les 40 écoles du conseil.

ARTour celebrates 10 years of welcoming visitors place over the Sept. 25 weekend.Throughout all of Prescott-Russell, 23 artists will be ready to welcome both art fans and the general public into their home or office studios, or be available at select special shows for displays of their works-in-progress and also to answer questions about their artwork, their styles, and their inspirations. This year two young local artists are part of the tour lineup, with their work available to view and themselves on hand for questions and comments at Petrovicz’ own home studio in Curran.
GREGG CHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca
This year is a special one formany artists in the Prescott-Russell region. It marks a full decade of the ARTour project, designed to promote greater appreciation and aware- ness of local artists by welcoming the public into their studios. “I’m very excited about the lineup this year,” said Tina Petrovicz, current president for ARTour. “We’ve got more mediums (to view) than we’ve ever had before.” The 10th anniversary of ARTour takes

This year’s edition of the Terry Fox Run will be held on Sunday, September 18, and will start at Simon Park at 9 a.m. Roman Nowak, who took over the organization of the event in 2012, dedicates this year’s run to Lyette Serrurier. Serrurier was a cancer survivor and long-time supporter of the event and was also a mentor and dear friend of Nowak. She passed away in 2015. This is Nowak’s fifth year as organizer of the event. Along with his partner, Carl Lacroix, both men are teachers at L’Escale, secondary school in Rockland. Novak is de- dicating this year’s run to Serrurier because “she was a constant fighter and a devoted community member,” and also added the he wants “her spirit andmemory to remain in our community.” Mr. Nowak’s calling “The reason I took this endeavour on is because after Frank Lalonde restarted the tradition in our community in 2011, he could not continue in 2012. There was a public appeal in the media because if no one took this on, there would be no Terry Fox Run in Clarence-Rockland.” Like so many people, Nowak lost family members to cancer. His father and mother-in-law were diagnosed with cancer in 2011 and both passed away in 2012 and in 2014; his mother was diagnosed with cancer and also passed away. In the last four years, Clarence-Rockland’s Terry Fox Run has raised $15,556.The num- ber of participants ranges from 75 to 135. Nowak would love to see the numbers of participants go back to what they were in the 1990s, when the event could attract nearly 400 participants. Since the beginning of the Run in 1981, in 16 years of holding the run in Clarence-Rockland, this community has raised $93,539 for the Foundation. Mr. Nowak would like to raise at least $6,500 with this year’s edition, an ambitious goal, as it would put the grand total for Clarence- Rockland’s Terry Fox Run to over $100,000.

Les membres de 6 à 12 ans, accompa- gnés de leur famille, ont été félicités pour leurs efforts et leur participation, tout au long de l’été, à la lecture et aux activités hebdomadaires. Quelques enfants ont reçu le prix Mon Livre, qui consistait à lire un certain nombre de pages durant l’été. D’autres enfants se sont démarqués grâce à leur motivation et leurs efforts exception- nels. Plusieurs activités étaient disponibles sur les lieux, telles que des jeux gonflables, peinture de visage et encore plus. Les pom- piers étaient aussi de la partie et ont donné des gâteries aux enfants, tout en les laissant monter à bord de leurs véhicules.
