Un déjeuner bénéfice achalandé

blement, le propriétaire Mike Georgakakos accueille l’activité de financement et verse une partie des profits des déjeuners servis à cette occasion pour l’achat de costumes chauds pour les bambins de 0 à six ans de familles à faible revenu de Hawkesbury et la région. Déjà à 9h, l’achalandage continu pour cette 7e édition, laissait augurer une bonne cueillette de fonds. Mme Williams souli- gnait par ailleurs la grande générosité de la communauté qui appuie très bien l’initia- tive parce qu’elle croit à la cause et qu’elle fait confiance à la Maison de la famille. Tout l’argent récolté sert directement aux enfants. Le directeur général du Groupe Ac- tion, Gilles Fournier, était lui aussi à l’œuvre. Groupe Action chapeaute notamment le Programme Fiers de nos enfants. Son pré- sident, Jean Joly, était également sur les lieux ainsi que des membres du conseil d’administration, dont Andréanne Gou- geon. Entre les effluves de pain grillé et de café, les clients se sont succédés aux tables, heu- reux de prendre un bon déjeuner tout en appuyant une bonne cause. Une boîte ser- vant à recueillir les dons était aussi installée sur les lieux. L’objectif cette année est d’amasser 10 000$ pour permettre l’achat d’un grand nombre d’habits de neige. L’an dernier, près de 150 enfants ont bénéficié de l’initiative. La campagne se poursuivra jusqu’à la fin novembre et la prochaine activité se tiendra le dimanche 17 novembre, entre 8h et 10h, à l’église Saint-Alphonse-de-Liguori alors que les Chevaliers de Colomb du conseil 9952, serviront eux aussi le déjeuner. Les formulaires de demande pour les ha- bits de neige sont disponibles à la Maison de la famille de Hawkesbury au 352, Main E, local 103 ou via le site Web www.groupeac- tion.ca, ou auprès des éducatrices, Kim ou Amanda au 613 632-6959.

Nick Musacchio, sergent d’état major auxiliaire et Brian Mackillop, commandant du détachement de Hawkesbury de la Police provinciale de l’Ontario sont servis par Brigitte Williams, superviseure du Programme Fiers de nos enfants/ Maison de la famille.

vincial average of 82 per cent. At St. Francis Xavier High School in Ham- mond, mathmarks have improved dramat- ically, from a success rate of 67 per cent in 2009 to 95 per cent in the latest tests. How- ever, literacy test results have gone in the opposite direction, dropping from 95 per cent in 2009 to 79 in the latest exam. At St. Thomas Aquinas in Russell, the math success rate has shot up to 98 per cent from 79 in 2009. The literacy test suc- cess rate is 89 per cent, down from 93 per cent in 2009.

At Russell High School, 77 per cent met the provincial standard in math. Students’ marks have been akin to a rollercoaster -- plunging to a 44 per cent success rate in 2009 and soaring to 91 per cent the fol- lowing year. In literacy, the success rate was 66 per cent, compared to 76 last year. At Glengarry District High School in Al- exandria, 79 per cent met the math stan- dard, compared to 86 per cent in 2009. On the literacy test, the success rate was 85 per cent, compared to 90 per cent last year. “The board recognizes that there are areas that require our attention, both in understanding our results and in support- ing teachers’ efforts in improving student achievement,” the UCDSB says in a state- ment.

Fluctuating marks are the norm at Upper Canada District School Board high schools when it comes to standardized testing. Continuing to score below the provincial average, 77 per cent of UCDSB grade 9 stu- dents met the provincial standard on the Education Quality and Accountability Of- fice academic math test for the 2012-2013 school year. The results show a three per- centage point increase over the 2008-2009 academic year but a three per cent drop from last year’s showing. At the provincial level, the success rate is 84 per cent. Meanwhile, 75 per cent of Grade 10 stu- dents met the provincial standard in the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test, a two per cent decrease from last year and a five per cent dip since 2009. At the provincial level, 82 per cent met the literacy standard. However, Rockland District High School (RDHS) bucked the regional trend, exceed- ing the provincial averages in both tests. The success rate at RDHS in academic math was 97 per cent, a rise over the 91 per cent passing rate in 2009.

A good cop story When Jacques Lafla mm e said he was calling it quits, a lot of people had the sa m e reaction: “He is al m ost the sa m e age as m e! He is too young to retire.”

Increased accountability is always a good thing, however, the dark side of the hu m an condition tends to get m ore play than the positive side. “Police presence”need not have a nega- tive connotation. That has been the at- titude the Hawkesbury detach m ent has adopted since Inspector Bryan Mackillop took over as co mm ander about two years ago. “We want to go fro m being reactive to being proactive,”Mackillop often says. While like everything else, policing has changed dra m atically in the last 35 years, a throwback to the proverbial “cop on the beat” still has its place in our hopped-up, wired world. “Everyone is always busy,”Lafla mm e ob- serves. “But officers should take the ti m e once in a while to get out of their cruiser and just talk to people.” One of the other things they do not teach in police college is the i m portance of knowing where m otorboats are stored. Years ago, Lafla mm e was dispatched to the Ottawa River in Hawkesbury. So m e duck hunters were in trouble. Their boat was taking on water. There was no police m arina unit around. Ti m e was running out. Lafla mm e contacted Yvon Lacelle, the m innow m an. “We got his boat and went out and rescued those guys. Yvon Lacelle saved people on the river at least twice. He deserves a m edal.” During his last week on the job, one of the ite m s Lafla mm e had on his “Things to do” list was to drop by and see for m er Hawkesbury Police Depart m ent chief Maurice Durocher. “I wanted to thank hi m for hiring m e.” A pretty classy gesture by a classy guy. At 55, Lafla mm e is obviously far too young to put up his feet and do nothing. He is considering starting a second career as a teacher. He would indeed m ake an excellent instructor, sharing his experi- ence and providing those valuable les- sons you will never learn in a classroo m .

Yes, it is hard to believe, but the veter- an Hawkesbury Ontario Provincial Police detach m ent officer hung up the badge October 11, capping a 35-year career. Ti m e sure does fly by when you are doing so m ething you love. And Lafla mm e was one of those fortu- nates who really loved his job. As he said during an interview pub- lished in a recent edition of the Tribune- Express, the law can be enforced with a co m passionate hand. He beca m e a police officer because he wanted to help people and m ake a difference. Granted, those goals m ay see m to be a tad precious, cliché or totally unattain- able. But m ost people who encountered Lafla mm e will re m e m ber hi m as being a good cop, an approachable guy who didn’t allow the unifor m beco m e a barrier between hi m and the people he was to serve and protect. It helped that he was a local. The L’Orignal native knew al m ost everyone, including victi m s of cri m es and accidents, the usual suspects and the assort m ent of individuals who just needed a little guid- ance or a sy m pathetic ear. A m azingly, Lafla mm e does not appear to be cynical or jaded. Civilians have no clue about the situa- tions police officers, and others who work on the “front lines,” m ust deal with on a daily basis. When authorities get widespread at- tention, it is usually the result of a contro- versial, and often tragic, action taken by a police officer. You can spend a lifeti m e watching the m ultitude of videos show- ing cops behaving badly. Everyone is un- der unprecedented scrutiny these days since everyone is equipped with portable recording devices.

Laurier Pharand a eu une agré- able surprise alors qu’il se promenait dans une forêt sur la montée Lemieux à Sainte- Anne-de-Prescott d e r n i è r e m e n t -- un gros cham- pignon mesurant environ un pied de diamètre. Bien qu’il prétend être prêt à le mager, il lui faudra d’abord faire cuire la spore avant qu’il puisse la savourer.

County won’t back new Hawkesbury O.P.P. base GREGGCHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca scheduling for the m unicipality. The re- m aining question is how to pay for building a new station. Seeing red One of the m ain objections m ost m ayors had to the report’s reco mm endation is that it puts the financial burden on local govern- m ents first. Several m ayors noted that the provincial govern m ent should also allow the OPP to look at contracting with the private sector for building a new detach m ent.

“We’re not able to borrow the m oney without affecting our borrowing capacity,” said Berthiau m e.

“That’s just another another facet of downloading,” said Gary Barton, Cha m plain Township m ayor.

“We work with private industry,” said May- or Jean-Paul St-Pierre of Russell Township. “They build; we rent. That’s the way to go.”

L’ORIGNAL | Getting a new OPP station for Hawkesbury will not be a simple matter. The United Counties of Prescott-Russell (UCPR) will not beco m e a partner for now on any financial plan for the project. A m a- jority of the m ayors on counties council vot- ed against the idea during a special vote at the Oct. 9 co mm ittee of the whole session. Warden René Berthiau m e, who sits as Hawkesbury’s m ayor on the counties coun- cil, expressed resignation with the result of the vote. “As m ayor I think I had to offer this oppor- tunity,”Berthiau m e said during an interview after the m eeting adjourned. “We will con- tinue to try to find a solution.” Last m onth counties council reviewed a feasibility study report fro m an OPP-led co mm ittee to Hawkesbury council on the costs and logistics involved in building a new police station in the town. The end re- sult of the report was a reco mm endation for the town to seek help financing the pro- posed project. The best design for a new OPP station for the m unicipality, using the one in Long Sault as a m odel, would have a projected a price tag of close to $10 m illion. That fig- ure includes an esti m ated $3 m illion to $4 m illion for the i m prove m ents to the basic building design itself to m eet the needs of a police station. Theoverall proposal is for a20,000-square- foot building, located on a lot of at least three acres in size to provide adequate parking and located with easy access to the highway. One of two options for building the new station would have the town build the ba- sic facility at a cost of $5.7 m illion and then Infrastructure Ontario (IO), as the project m anager, would spend the m oney needed for i m prove m ents to the building to m eet OPP needs. The other “turnkey” option has the town responsible for all of the construc- tion with IO as project m anager. The prov- ince would then pay back the m unicipality for the i m prove m ents through the rent pay- m ents during the first 10 years of a 20-year lease contract on the building. The report reco mm ends the turnkey op- tion for building construction because there are better cost controls and project Area residents are being warned to be wary of dubious pave m ent contractors who take pay m ent for work that is never co m pleted. Police urge residents to verify e m ploy m ent credentials of anyone of- fering to provide services. Paving busi- ness owners are also urged to ensure sub- contractors are legiti m ate by taking the ti m e to verify individual credentials. As victi m s feel that they are responsible, and e m barrassed for falling victi m to these of- fences, m any incidents are not reported to police. Anyone victi m ized by a si m ilar incident is urged to contact local police or Cri m e Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Driveway pavement scam alert

Partie de Vancouver, une équipe de cyclistes de la fondation Coast to Coast s’est ar- rêtée récemment à Hawkesbury, en chemin vers les Maritimes, où s’achèvera leur périple. Sur la photo, Trevor Crystal, Sarah King, Peter Cook, Mike Leiter et Mike Kelly posent pendant ce bref arrêt, le temps de prendre une bouchée. En relevant ce défi, ils appuient directement la lutte contre le cancer infantile. En plus de leurs jeunes protégés, des établissements de santé profiteront de l’initiative, dont le Centre hos- pitalier pour enfant de l’est de l’Ontario. Chacun d’eux devaient ramasser 25 000$ pour faire partie de l’équipe. Pour en savoir plus sur l’organisme, visitez le site www. ctcacf.org.
