A proposed code of conduct has been re- jected by Cornwall city council. A majority of council members defeated the proposal in a recorded vote at last Mon- day night’s meeting of council. Veteran councillors Denis Thibault and Syd Gardiner were key proponents of the new policy which was also back by Mayor Bob Kilger. Also voting in favour were coun- cillors Bernadette Clement and Elaine Mac- Donald. But other councillors balked at the cost of creating another layer of bureaucracy to police the actions of individual councillors. Councillor David Murphy said council members are already governed by the On- tario Municipal Act and the city’s own pro- cedural bylaw. “This becomes a redundancy,” he said. “How many sets of rules do we have to have in place to tell us to play nice and act like grown-ups and run the municipality the way it should be run?” The code – prepared by retiring city clerk Denise Labelle-Gelinas -- would have made the mayor the official spokesman for city council, would have prohibited criticism of city staff, and further warned against the release of information discussed during in- camera sessions. Councillor Andre Rivette said the pro- posed code is an affront to individual coun- cillors’ right to free speech. “You have no freedom of speech to go out and say ‘I don’t think this is right.” He said it is the role of individual council- lors to advise public on city issues because they are the ones who voted the council members into power. “If you don’t … agree with the way it’s being done, it’s your job to go to the voters and say that.” Thibault, however, said the voters deserve a document which explains to them the conduct required of city council members. “We have a code of conduct for our po-

City councillor David Murphy criticized a proposed code of conduct for council mem- bers as a “redundancy” at a council meeting last Monday.
lice force, we have a code of conduct for our employees, the federal government has a code of conduct, provincial employees have a code of conduct,” he said. “Our electorate expects us to respect a certain level of conduct in the offices that we hold. And I think we need to have a document of some type that says: ‘This is what you should expect from your elected officials.’” Council members keep talking about transparency, and how to act in a fair and impartial and professional manner, but what should be used to hold them to ac- count? he questioned. Voters owed a code “It should be on a code of conduct that says, ‘This is what you should expect from your elected officials.’” Councillor Glen Grant worried the pro- posed code inferred there is a problem with councillors’ conduct where there in fact is no problem. “When I look at this we’re saying there’s a problem, in my estimation. It’s a little bit proactive, but it’s also reactive in some re- spects. And I don’t believe we have a prob- lem.” He also worried the policy would cre-
ate another level of bureaucracy, another policy and another commissioner to which the municipality must report, while stress- ing council members are already governed by the Ontario Municipal Act and the city’s own procedural bylaw. Clement said any kind of document pro- scribing appropriate behavior for council members “is a good thing.” “It encourages transparency and it en- courages trust and co-operation as well. This kind of exercise will force us to look at ourselves and it’s time that we do,” she said. But Councillor Maurice Dupelle suggest- ed city hall was barking up the wrong tree with the proposed conduct code. “Communications around our council table is sometimes an issue and it is some- thing we need to work on as elected offi- cials of the city of Cornwall,” Dupelle said. “That’s where we need to start looking.” Kilger, in a last ditch plea, stressed propo- nents weren’t intimating there is a problem with the conduct of council m embers, nor were they trying to “quick fix” anything. “We are all held to a very high standard, but we need that standard clearly defined. I see this as an enhancement to the work that we do.”
City to lose $2 million in social services funding
By Greg Kielec greg.kielec@eap.on.ca
meaning the city will not be able to solicit extra funding even if there is an increased demand for social services. “The cap means . . . there will be a maxi- mum each year and we don’t have the abil- ity to say to the province, ‘we need some more, we’d like some more’.” Two groups, AMO, and Ontario Municipal Social Services Association, are collecting information from municipalities to evaluate how they will be affected by the funding cuts. Bureaucrats will also look at policies and procedures to “shrink” funding, Daigle said. A regional meeting will be held Sept. 21
for area municipalities to compare notes, Daigle said. “So we will be looking at what our neighbours in the eastern region will be doing as well.” According to a report prepared for city council, the “quality of life for some vulnera- ble citizens” may be affected as the city and other agencies struggle to coping with the loss of funding. “Provincial funding changes will have sig- nificant impacts on client service, however within the allowable maximums, there will be a slight decrease in the municipal contri- bution to discretionary benefits in 2013 due to the cost-sharing formula.”
A loss of $2 million in provincial social ser- vices funding will force the city to make “some very, very difficult decisions,” says Mayor Bob Kilger. “This is an action that was taken in the most recent provincial budget but is really coming to the surface of late in the impact it is having on communities,” Kilger told city council last Monday night. Debora Daigle, city manager of social and housing services, said social services funding has been capped by the province,

Anyone with information about the in-

To the editor: Voters reject Liberal majority By electing Catherine Fife as the NDP MPP, the voters in Kitchener-Waterloo chose leadership that delivers results for everyday families. They voted for positive change that puts people first. Melanie, left, and Natalie Hebert of the Cornwall Girl Guides place a mulch mat over a tree during a planting session at the Long Sault Parkway near Ingleside on Sunday morning. The two were among more then 50 volunteers who planted 450 spruce, red oak and white pine seedlings donated by the TD Friends of the Environment Founda- tion in an open field along the parkway.
I am pleased that Catherine Fife, the out- standing NDP candidate, has won the by- election in Kitchener-Waterloo. The convincing win by the NDP in Kitch- ener-Waterloo is a clear repudiation of the McGuinty Government’s record of cyni- cal politicking, demonizing the province’s teachers and doctors and its inept manage- ment of E-Health, Ornge air ambulance and the costly cancellation of power plants in Mississauga and Oakville to win seats in the last provincial election. The voters of Kitchener-Waterloo agreed with Andrea Horwath and the Ontario NDP that Dalton McGuinty does not deserve a majority government. The voters of Kitchener-Waterloo also saw Tim Hudak and the Ontario Conservatives with their unconstitutional wage freeze scheme for Ontario’s public servants as a throw-back to the Mike Harris reign of error and terror. By electing Catherine Fife as the NDP MPP, the voters in Kitchener-Waterloo chose
leadership that delivers results for every- day families. They voted for positive change that puts people first. The NDP wants to get to work at Queen’s Park and get results for families who are worried about jobs, healthcare, and the cost of everyday life. It’s time to stop the political games and focus on the challenges facing everyday Ontarians. Brian Lynch, President, SDSG Provincial NDP riding association,

Turbo Crank spins the boredom out of indoor cycling
You don’t have to go far to take a spin with Joe McNamara’s new cycling software -- in fact, you don’t need to go anywhere at all.. McNamara, a member of the Cornwall Multisport Club, is the inventor of Turbo Crank, a software-based workout for cy- clists and triathletes that is designed to help riders get the most out of their bike and sta- tionary trainer. The program simplifies indoor cycling by illustrating the workout, step by step . “This has been great summer for cycling, and more and more people are looking to improve their stamina and performance by training year-round,” said McNamara. “The challenge is to make indoor workouts as fun and interesting as outdoor rides.” An avid cyclist himself, McNamara began using an indoor cycling trainer during the offseason in the late ‘80s. He would write down a workout on paper and try to follow it, with poor results. He started taking part in organized work- outs offered in town but found dragging his bike back and forth a headache during the snowy winter months. McNamara’s solution was to design a variable, challenging workout plan that he could follow on his computer – one that would also allow him to watch a video or listen to a custom playlist of his favourite music. Fortunately, he had the computer skills that allowed him to develop his own soft- ware program to meet his vision. He sought out other cyclists, including Dutch elite cy- clist Tom Gakes, and asked them what they were looking for from a workout program. He took those ideas and over a couple of years refined his program until he was ready to launch it as Turbo Crank.
Based upon the reaction from cyclists, Turbo Crank is the right product at the right price. “This a great work out that not only keeps me in shape during the winter, but also helps me improve my technique and per- formance,” said Gary Jans, a fellow member of the Cornwall Multisport Club. “Both my wife and I have enjoyed using Turbo Crank.” The difference between Turbo Crank and other indoor cycling workout aids is that Turbo Crank shows the participant the gear to be using, the cadence (pedal revolu- tions per minute) and effort, along with a detailed explanation of the interval. Other workout videos usually only show one or two elements. The program is available for download for PC/Mac on TurboCrank.com. This is the third full year that Turbo Crank is been avail- able and sales continue to increase. Both men and women seem to like the product equally, although McNamara ac- knowledges that most cyclists buying it are likely in the northern hemisphere where you cannot ride outdoors during the colder months. “The triathlon community has been very receptive to the product and I have been able to spread the word via online message forums,” said McNamara. “I offer established bloggers an opportu- nity to review the software in exchange for a free version for themselves and a free ver- sion to give away to one of their readers.” At only $20 dollars, Turbo Crank offers great value for the dollar, according to Mc- Namara, who has already released a new version and is continually working on im- provements.
Local cyclist Joe McNamara is pictured ne x t to computer operating Turbo Crank, a training software he developed for cycling indoors.
It has proven to be a success with cyclists and triathaletes around the world. “The reaction has been excellent,” said McNamara. “Riding an indoor trainer can be boring. Having a structure to your workout
really helps the time pass and helps you to reach your fitness goals that much quicker.” Turbo Crank comes ready to go with a seven-week indoor cycling program, with three workouts per week.

Strong third With the Celtic team strong offensively in the final period, Oakes-Cook scored anoth- er side arm assisted by Miller and Josh Van- drish. With lots of speed and determination Gaudreau was the loose ball player.
The team tied the Barrie 2 squad thanks to the tremendous goalkeeping of Zak Coir. Celtics led the first period with a goal by shooter Colten Oakes-Cook assisted by Campbell Craig and Sam Gaudreau. Second period scoring began with a goal by the Barrie team early in the second but at the bottom of the second period Jack Almond placed the second Celtic goal as- sisted by Josh Vandrish and Mick Miller. Unable to hold onto the lead in the third, Barrie tied it up and the final score was 2-2. Cameron Marleau received the game ball. In the second game that balmy Friday af- ternoon, Celtics were one goal up until late

UN DEUXIÈME RALLYE VÉLO-POUSSETTE Le Centre de ressources familiales de l’Estrie et Partir d’un bon pas, deux or- ganismes francophones qui desservent les familles, ont accepté avec plaisir le mandat d’organiser pour une deuxième année consécutive, un rallye pour les familles francophones et francophiles dans le cadre de la fête du drapeau fran- co-ontarien, célébré depuis 1 9 77.
Vive Cornwall, situé pr è s du monument de la francophonie, vous y retrouverez des jeux gonflables, des activités et des maquillages et un spectacle de Frisotine vous attend à 11 h 3 0. Drapeau franco-ontarien Voici la signification du drapeau : À gauche, la fleur de lys blanche sur fond vert est le symbole international de la francophonie. À droite, le trille vert sur fond blanc est la fleur emblématique de l’Ontario. Le vert représente l’été et l’es- poir (le courage de ceux qui ont lutté pour nous, nos victoires, notre immense créati- vité et notre fierté) et le blanc représente l’hiver (nos défis, nos gouvernements qui nous ignorent trop souvent, et notre iso- lement culturel et géographique).
Vous êtes invités à vous présenter au Parc Lamoureux (inscription sur place), pr è s des structures de jeux, le samedi 22 septembre, entre 9 h et 10 h 3 0. Que vous soyez à pied, en vélo ou avec votre pous- sette, nous vous préparons des activités physiques amusantes avec des questions pour les petits et les grands tout au long

rigé une demande formelle d’aide au quar- tier général de la SQ à Montréal. J’ai reçu mon accréditation afin de recevoir la liste des personnes disparues, liste confiden- tielle du corps de police. Après cela, tous les corps de police m’ont ouvert leur porte dans tout le Canada.» Jean se souvient d’un cas majeur à Cor- nwall. Celui de la disparition, le 13 décembre 2010, de Denise Vernier, retrouvée morte un mois plus tard dans un boisé. L’Associa- tion a travaillé dur en posant des affiches de recherche, en discutant avec la population et en travaillant en étroite collaboration avec la détective Jennifer Paiement, de la police de Cornwall. « Ça m’a pris du temps à m’en remettre.» Suite à cette enquête et cette découverte, le mari de Denise, Mike Vernier, s’est joint à la petite équipe de Jean en devenant le directeur de l’Association. Jocelyne Temblay en est la vice-présidente. Ces associations, qui fluctuent à travers le monde, sont importantes et doivent être reconnues par les hautes instances de police pour travailler avec ces derniers. Les personnes y gravitant sont bénévoles et donnent de leur temps afin d’aider non seulement les forces de l’ordre mais aussi les familles qui, bien souvent, ne désirent parler qu’à ces bénévoles. Cependant, ces associations travaillent avec les moyens du bord. Celle de Jean, par

Lorsque Cédrika disparaît de son domicile de Trois-Rivières, au Québec, le 31 juillet 2007, Jean, alors à la retraite, se réveille en pleine nuit avec la forte sensation qu’il doit s’investir. Il reçoit un message clair, celui de construire un site Internet pour rechercher la jeune fille disparue qui n’a jamais été retrouvée à ce jour. Originaire lui-même de Trois-Rivières mais habitant Cornwall de- puis plus de 30 ans, Jean se met au travail. « À partir de ce moment, tout a commencé », explique l’ancien animateur de radio. Son premier site de recherche s’appelait Le ré- seau national enfants disparus. Aujourd’hui, l’ Asso c iation des enfants et adultes disparus in c . est son nouveau nom web et on peut y accéder en tapant le www.mcaa-aead.ca . « J’ai dû casser bien des murs pour gagner la confiance. La toute première personne à m’avoir ouvert les portes est la caporale Nathalie Frigon, de la Sûreté du Québec, à Trois-Rivières, raconte Jean Bédard. Elle a di-

Jean ne compte pas. « Je n’arrêterai jamais, tant et aussi longtemps que j’ai la santé. Je travaillerai toujours pour les victimes et les familles.» Pour Jean Bédard, ce nouveau ‘’travail’’ depuis cinq ans est un réel défi « mais la réalité est tout autre », conclut-il.
Collecte de fonds réussie pour la Journée Madison
L’instigatrice de l’événement, Micheline Martel, professeur d’éducation physique, a organisé une journée mémorable et touchante pour venir en aide à la famille de la petite Madison qui devra rester à l’hôpital au moins jusqu’à l’été prochain. «Cette collecte de fonds, a-t-elle dit, a été mise sur pieds pour venir en aide à la famille de Madison.
