If by the end of the summer they have made profit, we give them an additional 1500$ and they can keep the profit they made”.

CORNWALL| Cornwall’s youngest entre- preneurs all gathered on June 27 at the Best Western to demonstrate their busi- nesses. Take Kaitlin Morris for example. The 18 year old has started a cake-making and decorating business. Based on the popular T.V. show Cake Boss, Morris applied for the Summer Company program and turned her passion into Kait’s Cakes. “Anyone looking for a fun way to cele- brate an occasion such as a birthday, an an- niversary or a retirement should check out Kait’s Cakes,” said the 18 year old. “Anytime is a great time to celebrate with cake.” Another entrepreneur brought her fam- ily traditions to the business world. The 16-year-old Victoria Cotnam will be selling custom handmade and embroidered prod- ucts made from rawmaterials such as cloth, jeans and polyester. “I put a great deal of time and effort into each and every item to make it as special as possible for each customer,” said Cot- nam. “There are many different ways to pre- serve memories and I enjoy working with

“First we meet them and see if their busi- ness can produce a profit in the short sum- mer months,” said Pollard. “If we think it might work, we then establish a business plan”.

The program also demands that the can- didates return to school.

Potential entrepreneurs have to go through several steps in order to receive provincial funding.

Call for new representation The great City of Cornwall rests on the cusp of promise. Regrettably, persistent negative issues at city hall are creating an image of distrust and uncertainty which threatens growth. wrongful dismissal claims suggests that city council wrestles more with cure than pre- vention. Teamwork appears to have quickly transcended towards in-fighting. Thank- fully, some city councillors are true to their oath and maintain a high sense of integrity. We are grateful for their leadership under trying circumstances. There is a pall on the affairs of the city at present. Human resource issues alone are finding city taxes, lining the pockets of out of town high-priced lawyers.] The predominance of secret meetings coupled with the high incidence of the The time is ripe for experienced, hard- working and transparent representation. The good of the community must come

Wild Parsnip on the rise in eastern Ontario

The Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) is warning residents of the five eastern counties to avoid Wild Parsnip plants when spending time outdoors this sum- mer. Wild Parsnip, also known as Poison Parsnip, is a toxic plant that is rapidly spreading throughout the region. Certain individuals may be affected by Wild Parsnip more than others as they may suffer from a heightened sensitivity to the plant’s sap. When the stem is broken or

the plant is brushed against, exposure to the sap can cause severe rashes, blisters or burns resulting in brown scars that can last for several years. If a person’s eyes come into contact with the plant’s sap, it can cause temporary or permanent blindness. The best way to avoid an infestation is to remove it. When removing Wild Parsnip, in- dividuals must wear goggles, rubber gloves, rubber boots and coveralls. They must wash their boots and gloves with soap, water

and a scrub brush before taking them off. It is preferable to mow the plant before it flowers (late June to early July) to prevent it from spreading. Wild Parsnip can also be pulled out by hand or dug up. More information about Wild Parsnip plants and how to remove them is available at www.eohu.ca or via the Health Line, 613- 933-1375 or 1 800 267-7120.

Je ne prends jamais un martini sans penser à lui.» Jean Bédard, président de l’Association enfants adultes disparus, a annoncé qu’il allait diffuser le documentaire d’Huguette Burroughs, Franchir la nuit, au Port Theatre dans un avenir rapproché. Le court métrage explore les nombreux moments difficiles dans la vie d’Huguette Burroughs, telle que sa cécité.

CORNWALL | Les émotions étaient fortes le 26 juin dernier alors que les membres du conseil municipal de Cornwall renom- maient une pièce en hommage aux ex- conseillers Huguette Burroughs et Guy Léger. «Nous rendons hommage à nos anciens collègues en guise d’affection et de respect pour eux», a déclaré le maire de Cornwall, Bob Kilger.

Olymel to expand its Cornwall Plant

plant in Cornwall. The company intends to invest $37 mil- lion in the expansion of its facilities, and will add 70,000 square feet to the existing space. Work now in progress includes the addition of a continuous smokehouse and construc- tion of a biological reactor designed to in-

crease wastewater treatment and purifica- tion capacity. This expansion will create fifty new jobs and enable the Cornwall plant to expand its capacity to produce not only ba- con but also a wider variety of processed pork products. “This investment is part of a plan to re- organize the company’s operations in the processed pork sector, and is a vote of con- fidence in the future of the Cornwall plant. Olymel also plans to renew its production with a plan to specialize its facilities by product type. In a context of fierce compe- tition from U.S. products in the bacon sec- tor, Olymel has decided to change the focus of some of its facilities, including the Corn- wall plant, by combining bacon production operations with other processed meat op- erations,” noted Olymel President and CEO Réjean Nadeau This significant investment in the Corn- wall plant, previously specialized in the slic- It’s a familiar, heartbreaking story that comes with summer heat-waves in Cana- da – a child left in a vehicle overheats and dies from heatstroke. Even on days that seem relatively mild, 20 minutes is all it takes for the interior of a ve- hicle to reach extreme temperatures. These conditions can cause a child to go into shock and sustain vital organ failure. The Canada Safety Council urges parents and caregivers to be aware of and recog- nize the inherent dangers of leaving a child unattended, especially in a confined space such as a car on a hot day. The advice is sim- ple: never leave a child alone in a vehicle – not even for a minute. Heat levels in a car exposed to the sun on a 35°C (95°F) day can soar to 50°C (122°F)

ing and production of pre-cooked bacon, allows greater flexibility in the production of a wider variety of products. The plant may produce items such as smoked prod- ucts like pork ham, picnic hams and jowls. Once the work is completed, the Cornwall plant will employ more than 320 persons. Under federal jurisdiction, the operations of the Cornwall facility are supervised by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). “The Olymel plant in Cornwall enjoys an advantageous geographical position close to major transportation axes and between larger centres such as Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa. The expansion of our facilities and broadening of our operations through a more diversified product line represent an additional factor in optimizing our op- erations so we can better serve the Canadi- an and U.S. markets,” added plant manager Martin Croteau. within 20 minutes. Heat stroke, meanwhile, occurs at 40.5°C (105°F). When the body’s core temperature reaches this point, sweat reserves are depleted and a person’s body is no longer able to cool itself. At this point, the body’s core temperature shoots even higher, resulting in severe organ damage and (without intervention) death. Children are especially sensitive to heat exposure because their sweat glands are not fully developed, which means their bodies are not capable of cooling down quickly. When exposed to heat, a child’s body temperature rises three times faster than an adult in the same conditions. Incidents of children being forgotten in a vehicle can occur if otherwise responsible parents and caregivers are distracted, fa- tigued or if there is a break in daily routine. However, extra care and vigilance is all it takes to ensure the safety of children and all other vehicle occupants, such as pets and elderly persons. As a reminder that a child is in the vehicle, put something needed such as a cell phone near the child in the backseat. If an individual witnesses a child alone in a locked vehicle, they asked to call immedi- ately 9-1-1 to get help. Fatalities can also occur is a child enters an unlocked vehicle and is unable to get out. Vehicle owners should keep the doors and the trunk locked at all times while the vehicle is parked and unattended. Do not teach children how to unlock your vehicle or override safety features. Keep your keys in a safe location.

Heather Rochon’s struggle to find a job

FRANCIS RACINE inforeflet.news@eap.on.ca

CORNWALL | Holding a cigarette, Heather Rochon looks up to the fan on her ceiling. “I like it here,” she says. “It’s grown to be my home, the people are nice”. The 22-year-old has a freshly hung col- lege diploma that she received earlier this month, after she completed a two-year- long program. “I thought I’d come here for college then go back to Ottawa after I grad- uated,” explains Rochon. Like so many youth in Cornwall, the re- cent graduate is torn between staying in Cornwall, a city she loves, or leaving to go somewhere else, where she can find em- ployment. “I always wanted to be a fashion editor, I love fashion,” said the young wom- an.“But there’s just no way I’ll be able to find this here. Rochon, who has been out of work since April, has applied for any job she can find, such as at fast food restaurants, retail stores and grocery stores. She has also applied to certain positions outside of Cornwall in the hopes of finding employment there. “I’ve applied in British Columbia, Ottawa, Toronto and even Montreal,” she says. “Pret- ty much anywhere there’s a job posting.” But after being without an income for so long, her bills are beginning to pile up and Rochon is starting to worry. “I’m struggling to pay bills,” she says. “Not finding a job has put a lot of stress on me”. With rent, utilities and groceries, Rochon can now add her student loans to her list of expenses. Thankfully, she reached to On- tario Works, which has helped her both fi- nancially and with finding an employment. When asked about if she knows of anyone in the same situation as she is, she nods. “Of course” says a weary Rochon, “and it’s not just in Cornwall. ”The graduate then goes on to explain that several of her acquain- tances struggle to find employment, even after they have acquired a college diploma. “No one tells you that when you complete college there happens to be no job avail-

able in your field,” she says. Rochon also highlights that she has had to drastically cut down on some of her expenses, such as better foods altogether. “I have stopped buying things altogether” she says with a heavy heart. “Going to the grocery store isn’t even fun anymore. I’ve been living off cheap food that is certainly not the healthiest”. She also admits that she can’t go out with friends anymore, for fear of not hav- ing enough funds. Asked what she misses

the most, she quickly replies that she yearns to just go out and not necessarily purchase something, but knows that she could. “Lit- tle things like a certain brand of shampoo or that pair of jeans at a reasonable price,” she says. Rochon is quick to point out, however, that the experience has taught her several life lessons. “I don’t need everything I want,” she says. “It sucks, but a part of life and you learn to appreciate certain things in a differ- ent light.”

Asked if she thinks Cornwall could change, the young woman ponders and an- swers: Yes. “I think Cornwall could change,” Rochon says. “I think that if there were ac- tually jobs in this city that this city could thrive. Cornwall has so much to provide yet chooses not to.” As she takes a deep breath, the Cornwall citizen concludes, calmly: “All I’m doing now is being optimistic and just keep try- ing. Something awesome will come way some day.”

Powell School of Dance Inc. donated $2000 to the Cornwall Hospital Foundation towards the purchase of an ultrasound machine for the Cornwall Hos- pital’s Rose and David Bloom- field Diagnostic Centre. These funds were raised thanks to ad space sales in the program of their 2013 dance recital “A British Invasion”. This year, 115 dancers performed

for an audience of 800, over two days at Aultsville Hall. The school’s dancers range from 2-year-old beginners to adult couples learning ballroom dancing. Programs include dance therapy, ballet, jazz, tap, lyrical, contemporary and hip hop. “The Powell family has been teaching in Cornwall for nine years. We feel strongly about

giving back to this city,” said Su- san Powell, the dance school’s Artistic Director. “We wish to thank the advertisers who join us in supporting Cornwall Hos- pital Foundation and celebrate annually the success of our dancers.” “The Powell’s are recognized in Cornwall as a group of dedi- cated and caring artists,” stated Connie Vardy, Executive Direc-

tor of Cornwall Hospital Foun- dation. “We look forward to their visit each year. It gives us the opportunity to find out what they have added to the school’s innovative programs but mostly we get the chance to tell them how much we ap- preciate their staunch support.”

La lecture et les autobus: une bonne combinaison FRANCIS RACINE inforeflet.news@eap.on.ca

Mme Lapalme est à la tête des services à l’enfance à la bibliothèque de Cornwall et a su captiver les petits tout comme les grands. Len Tapp, gérant de la division du trans- port en commun pour la Ville de Cornwall, a vanté le projet comme étant le premier de la sorte dans la région. «Plusieurs autres villes essaient de lancer leur propre club de lecture Lire pour balad- er», a expliqué M. Tapp. «Plusieurs m’ont même contacté pour de l’information.» Suite à la courte réunion tenue à l’intérieur de l’autobus, les enfants se sont rendus dans la bibliothèque où ils ont pu peindre sur une toile énorme. La soirée s’est terminée avec un tirage qui a vu Eureure Romero gagner quatre laissez- passer au parc aquatique Calypso.

CORNWALL | Une vingtaine d’enfants ainsi que leurs parents se sont entassés dans un autobus de ville, marquant le début de Lire pour balader. Le club, qui a lancé ses activités le 18 juin, a pour but d’inciter les jeunes à adopter la lecture comme passe-temps tout au long de l’été. En partenariat avec la Ville de Cornwall, la bibliothèque a remis plusieurs laissez-passer d’autobus gratuit à tous les jeunes membres. «Aimeriez-vous prendre l’autobus gra- tuitement tout l’été?», a demandé Lyne Lapalme aux enfants.

WEEKLY RECIPE

WEEK OF JUNE 30 TO JULY 6, 2013

Cream of Mushroom Soup

THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: LEO, VIRGO, AND LIBRA.

ARIES Your friends and loved ones are constantly asking you for all sorts of things. For- tunately you are a devoted sort of person and love pleasing others. TAURUS You make the most of your vacation by embarking on a big project. It is impor- tant to surround yourself with a good team in order to complete this project to your liking. GEMINI Your energy levels are up and down this week. You receive good news about the health of a loved one and will probably want to celebrate. CANCER Time is a precious commodity, and you’ll have to get organized if you want to accomplish everything you have set out to do. You will join friends for a wonder- ful event. LEO If you’re looking for work, one of your friends will steer you towards a worthy career. You undertake a project that is close to your heart, even if it’s only taking a trip. VIRGO Try and find time for a vacation this sum- mer. You have all the tools you need to build your own business, including the support of many people. LIBRA You generate harmony everywhere you go; people can only smile in your presence. You find all the necessary solutions in order to settle a debt or buy a property. SCORPIO You should be able to conclude a transac- tion or wrap up some ongoing negotia- tions. Don’t be afraid of change; it will be to your benefit. SAGITTARIUS You are the centre of attention in one way or another. Expect to be warmly applauded when you accomplish a brilliant exploit. CAPRICORN It wouldn’t be surprising if one of your children does not enjoy day camp. You’ll have to make some adjustments and give him or her a bit of attention, even if it means taking some time off work. AQUARIUS If you’re on vacation, make sure you have a map or a GPS handy; otherwise, you might end up going around in circles. Some rest at home will do you good. PISCES You are in a position to claim some kind of reimbursement. A short training ses- sion during the summer will benefit you at work.

This soup will permanently eradicate any desire for canned or dried mushroom soups. It is rich, full of flavour and not par- ticularly difficult to make. INGREDIENTS: - 1 kg (2 lbs) mushrooms - 2 onions - 2 cloves garlic - 90 ml (6 tbsp) butter - 90 ml (6 tbsp) flour - 15 ml (1 tbsp) thyme - Pepper - 125 ml (1/2 cup) soy sauce - 500 ml (2 cups) vegetable or chicken stock 1 litre - (4 cups) cream or milk

DIRECTIONS : Wash and slice mush- rooms. Chop onions and garlic. Melt butter in a stockpot, then sauté mushrooms, onions and garlic for approximately 5 minutes – until mushrooms are cooked but not too soft. Remove vegetables from pan with a slotted spoon, leaving behind as much butter as possible. If there is no butter left in the pot, melt another 60 ml (4 tbsp) of butter before proceeding. Stir flour into melted butter over medi- um heat. Add thyme, pepper and soy sauce and cook, stirring, for 3 or 4 min- utes. Slowly stir in stock, then cream or milk, cooking until the mixture is some- what thickened and heated through. Return vegetables to pot, stir to mix thoroughly and serve.

You already have a few numbers to get you started. Remember: You must not repeat the numbers 1 through 9 in the same line, column, or 3x3 box .
