Agapè Centre introduces new fundraiser

Agapè is bringing a new and popular fun- draiser to Cornwall for the first time on November 13. Called Empty Bowls, the event centers around pottery bowls which will be given following a meal. Event-goers will get to choose a unique handcrafted bowl, fill it with gourmet soup by local chefs, paired with a fresh bun and apple crisp for dessert. After eating the meal with friends, each guest takes home their one-of-a-kind bowl.

“This fundraiser brings people together to share in a hearty meal, so it dovetails nicely with our mission,” said Johanne Gauthier, operations manager at the Agapè Centre.

“This fundraiser brings people together to share in a heartymeal, so it dovetails nicely with our mission,” said Johanne Gauthier, operations manager at the Agapè Centre. AnnMarlin, local potter of over 40 years, and founder of MarlinOrchards, volunteered to gather 100 bowl donations from local and area artisans. “Empty Bowls is a project that is quite familiar to potters,” explainedMarlin. “They are very earthy people and close to nature using natural resources to make a bowl, which symbolizes the importance of the work of the Agapè Centre to keep the bowls filled. The response of the potters in my re- cent show was tremendous! They were all so enthusiastic and generous.” Gourmet soups will be prepared and gen- erously donated by local chefs Tony Lacroix of Love, Love Food, and LucMcCabe of NAV Centre, along with the Agapè Centre’s chef, Ludwik Piotrowski. The event takes place on November 13, upstairs at the Agapè Centre, with three sit- tings: 11 a.m., 12 p.m. and 1 p.m. There will also be a silent auction. There are only 90 tickets available, and they can be purchased at Scotiabank on Brookdale. The bank has partnered with the food bank and will bematching ticket sales, turn- ing every ticket sale into a $60 donation to the charity. Proceeds from the event will help the local food bank continue to serve the more than 500 families a month, and the soup kitchen to provide more than 100 nutritious meals 6 days a week.

Nouvelle loi policière Une nouvelle loi des services policiers entrera en vigueur à Cornwall, en janvier, et exigera que tous les policiers qui initient une interaction avec un membre du public recueillent des renseignements auprès de l’individu. Ces renseignements seront ensuite saisies dans une base de données à des fins de rapport. La loi interdit les arrêts aléatoires faits par la police, afin d’essayer de mettre fin aux arrêts arbitraires, en particulier ceux fondés sur la race. « Nous n’avons jamais fait ça ici, à Cornwall, a déclaré le chef de police Dan Parkinson. En fait, lorsque nous interagissons avec quelqu’un, nous avons un reçu qui dit ceci: Voici mon nom et mon numéro de matricule, la date et l’heure de notre interaction et je vous donne cette carte comme reçu de cette interaction. » Parkinson a aussi mentionné qu’à l’endos de la carte se trouvent des informations sur la façon de porter plainte auprès du département de police. « Donc, s’ils n’aiment pas comment nous avons interagi avec eux, ils peuvent porter plainte », a fait valoir M. Parkinson. Celui-ci a aussi précisé que les agents sont tenus de dire aux citoyens qu’ils n’ont aucune obligation de discuter avec eux.- Francis Racine

Street Hockey Challenge coming soon

The Fourth Annual Santa’s Street Hockey Challenge will be held on November 19 on Montreal Road between McConnell Avenue and Baldwin Street, in the heart of Le Village. The tournament, which sees hundreds of local children hit the street to enjoy Canada’s favourite game, is played in a 3-on-3 format with no goalies to make sure the pace is quick, and the fun lasts all day. “We believe that having fun is the most important part of sport and every player who participates will receive a tournament medal,” said street hockey challenge co-organizer Jeff McCullough. The event has become synonymous with the popular Santa Claus Parade that takes place in Cornwall later in the evening on the same day and likewise attracts families from across the city and region. From left are Pierre Lefebvre (Le Village vice-chair), Robin McIntosh (street hockey challenge co-organizer), Frédéric Dubuc, Jeff McCullough (street hockey challenge co-organizer) and Michel Dubuc (Le Village chair). — supplied photo

tout au long du mois de novembre, soit du 9 au 29. En effet, les œuvres de Marleene McWilliam et Sylvie Labrecque parsè- ment déjà les murs du Corrid’Art. Sur le mur gauche de la galerie, on remarque les

peintures de Mme McWilliam et sur le côté droit, les œuvres de Mme Labrecque. « C’est mon premier vernissage, a fait valoir MmeMcWilliam. C’est mon frère qui m’a encouragé à en créer un. » Les deux artistes sont amies, s’étant ren- contrées par l’entremise de l’organisation Focus Art. « Nous avons remarqué que nous avions beaucoup en commun », a déclaré Mme Labrecque. Celle-ci est titulaire d’un baccalauréat en arts de l’Université de Chicoutimi et a organisé plusieurs vernissages. « J’ai exposé mes œuvres un peu partout à Cornwall, soit au théâtre Aultsville et à la galerie TAG. » C’est donc sous l’œil attentif de son amie queMmeMcWilliama créé sa propre expo- sition. « J’ai appris beaucoup de choses, a- t-elle dit. J’étais un peu gênée de montrer mes œuvres. » Celle-ci peint depuis très longtemps et s’inspire de ses multiples voyages ainsi que de la nature qui l’entoure. Pour sa part, Mme Labrecque, qui non seulement peint mais aussi travaille avec des crayons de couleurs, trouve son inspiration dans les gens qui l’entourent. « Je suis fascinée par les êtres humains, a-t-elle dévoilé. J’aime faire res- sortir l’essence de la personne. » Ensemble, les deux femmes ont bien fait de remplir les murs du Corrid’Art. Leur vernissage officiel aura lieu le 9 novembre, de 17 h à 20 h.

Pour la première fois depuis le déména- gement du Centre culturel, le Corrid’Art accueillera le vernissage de deux artistes,

If you thought Ribfest 2016 was great, Ribfest 2017 is looking even better, with a new beginning and new look but very familiar faces. TerryMuir, known tomany as the father of Ribfest, is back. Last year’s Ribfest Chairman, John Lucio, is Muir’s co-chair this year. Together, they have a barbecue fun- filled 4-day extravaganza planned out for Lamoureux Park. “These are exciting times to be living in Cornwall,” said native Texan, Lucio. “It was Muir’s vision that gave birth to Ribfest here in Cornwall six years ago, and I’m always very happy to see a father back with his baby. He was instrumental to the success of last year’s Ribfest. And I am honoured and humbled that he askedme to be his co-chair this year, for the Optimist Club of Cornwall, which is putting this amazing event together.” “The Optimist Club of Cornwall is such

a wonderful organization for the city,” de- claredMuir. “With over 35members banded together and highly motivated by a sheer desire to contribute to their community, we can expect professionalism, enthusiasm, and a whole lot of money raised for the children of Cornwall,” he added. Yes, the Optimist Club is the driving force behind this year’s event, and what better organization to spearhead the project than one who is so heavily involved with helping our local youth. All proceeds of Ribfest earned by the Optimist Club will pour directly into the youths of Cornwall. The Optimist Club is a civic organization run solely by volunteers. They serve the children of our community by offering programs for them to be involved in, and by providing a variety of community service projects.

Remembering those who lost their fight against PTSD

For many soldiers, the battles they fight overseas often don’t end when they are sent back home. Instead, many are faced with a constant struggle: Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD is a psychiatric disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as military combat, natural disasters, terrorist incidents, serious accidents, or physical or sexual assault in adult or childhood. Several veterans have committed suicide in the post Afghanistan War. “We’re here to remember our fallen comrades who took their own lives,” explained past president of the Friends of Vets, Garry Samler, during the organisation’s 3rd annual candlelight vigil. Held at the city’s Cenotaph on November 2, the event attracted a handful of veterans, all with the same message; although PTSD is a horrible affliction, there is help available . — photos Francis Racine

Pour plusieurs vétérans, les batailles qu’ils combattent outre-mer ne se terminent pas toujours lorsqu’ils regagnent le Canada. Plusieurs d’entre eux sont affectés par le trouble de stress post-traumatique (TSPT), une maladie mentale qui résulte souvent de l’exposition à un événement traumatisant lié à la mort, à des menaces de mort ou à des blessures graves. C’est pourquoi les Amis des Vétérans ont organisé une veillée aux chandelles, en mémoire des vétérans qui se sont enlevé la vie. Dennis Labbé, ancien président de l’organisation, était présent lors de l’événement. «C’est très difficile pour plusieurs d’entre nous, a-t-il fait valoir. Plusieurs d’entre nous sont tentés par le suicide.

One of the organizers of the 3 rd annual candlelight vigil, Steve Forrest, lights up a candle in the memory of veterans that committed suicide.

Canadian treasures CANADA: NATURAL SOURCE OF PRIDE SINCE 1867

Quiz TEST YOUR CANADIAN KNOWLEDGE

Mary Ann Shadd (1823–1893) ACTIVIST, JOURNALIST, LAWYER AND FIRST BLACK FEMALE NEWSPAPER EDITOR IN NORTH AMERICA

QUESTION 1: Known for his observational comedy, which Toronto-born funny man bases a large part of his routines on experiences growing up as the son of first-generation Indian immigrants? QUESTION 2: Canada’s largest national park is bigger than several countries, including Switzerland and the Netherlands. What is its name?

However, financial backing for the school fell through, after which Shadd devoted herself to writing. She published the widely spread pamphlet A plea for emigration, in which she encouraged American black people to immigrate to Can- ada. A year later, in 1853, the Provincial Freeman was born. The newspaper addressed all aspects of black life in Canada but particularly focused on issues of racial discrimination and segregation. The Provincial Freeman met its demise in 1859 due to fi- nancial problems. Shortly after, Shadd got a teaching job at an interracial school in Chatham. She returned to the United States during the Civil War to serve as an enlistment recruiter, and remained in the U.S. after the war had ended. She obtained an American teaching degree and eventually relocated toWashington D.C., where she studied at Howard University and received a law degree from the institution in 1883. Mary Ann Shadd returned to Canada only once—in 1881 to organize a suffragist rally—before her death in the summer of 1893. However, the 12 years she spent on Canadian soil undeniably helped shape our country for the better.

Short stay, lasting impact

Born to prominent abolitionist parents prior to the American civil war, Mary Ann Shadd supported black rights and suf- fragist movements in both Canada and the United States. As a black woman, she was able to achieve several ground-

breaking feats, including becoming the first black woman in North America to publish a newspaper, the first to earn a law degree and the first to vote in a national election. Mary Ann was educated at a Quaker boarding school in Pennsylvania for six years. Afterwards, at the age of 16, she organized a school for black youths in her hometown of Wilmington. She spent the next eleven years teaching in schools throughout the northern states, acting on her be- lief that education was one of the primary means through which black people would achieve racial parity. She encour- aged her pupils and peers to pursue anti-slavery reformand integrate—as opposed to segregate—in North America. In 1851, Shadd moved to Upper Canada (now called On- tario) where she helped black refugees who fled to Canada via the Underground Railroad. She opened an integrated school that was open to all who could afford to attend.

QUESTION 3: A Canadian master spy was the first person to successfully transmit photos wirelessly in the 1920s. What was his name?

QUESTION 4: What popular board game, originally released in 1982, was cre- ated by Canadians Chris Haney and Scott Abbott?

Canada’s Iranian community

The Iranian-Canadian community is an invaluable asset to the larger cul- tural mosaic of our country. As a whole, the group tends to be highly edu- cated and resourceful, with many members starting businesses in a range of sectors. Iranian-Canadians can be found throughout academia, athletics, politics and the arts. Human rights activist Payam Akhavan, architect Hos- sein Amanat, and novelist and poet Reza Baraheni are just a few from the Iranian-Canadian community making notable contributions both at home and around the world.

Bird: Common loon

The common loon was voted in as Ontario’s em- blematic bird in 1994 by the province’s school- children. These aquatic divers populate lakes throughout Canada. Their distinct call is one of their most recognizable characteristics. They migrate south every fall and return to nest and mate in spring and summer.

Though Iranians have been calling Canada home since the 1940s, their numbers were small until the Iranian Revolu- tion of 1979. Since 1980, thousands of Iranians have immigrated to Canada each year to escape the religious and political persecution found within the borders of their native country. The community of Iranian-Canadians in 2011 consisted of 163,290 citizens, with 90 per cent of them residing in urban centres in Ontario, British Columbia and Quebec. The Iranian-Canadian community is active and has several community organizations in place including the Iranian Canadian Congress and the Canadian Iranian Foundation. The community also produces several newspapers, most notably the weekly Shahrvand out of Toronto, which has an estimated readership of 110,000.

Des super-héros contre la faim

Frédrik Larivière, premier ministre de l’École secondaire catholique La Citadelle et Alexandre Cochrane, ministre du comité de la pastorale de l’école, posent fièrement lors de la clôture de la campagne annuelle de denrées alimentaires de La Citadelle. — photo Francis Racine

FRANCIS RACINE francis.racine@eap.on.ca

« Tout lemonde adore les compétitions, a affirmé Frédrik. Ça attire vraiment les gens. » La classe qui remettait le plus de denrées lors de la campagne obtenait plusieurs petits gâteaux. De plus, les deux jeunes hommes, ainsi que plusieurs autres étudiants et ensei- gnants, ont décidé de créer une vraie cam- pagne de propagande afin de promouvoir la compétition. « Le Centre Agapè a un thème différent presque tous les mois, a déclaré Alexandre. Récemment, leur slogan était Héros contre la faim .» Plusieurs affiches ont donc été parsemées

octobre au 4 novembre. Les denrées sont ensuite remises au Centre Agapè. « Les dernières années, c’était Sheldon Veenstra qui s’occupait de la campagne, a fait valoir Alexandre Cochrane, ministre du comité de la pastorale de l’école. Il faisait plusieurs choses que nous n’avons pas faites cette année, comme du porte- à - porte dans la communauté. » Au lieu, Alexandre et le premier ministre du Conseil étudiant, Frédrik Larivière, ont organisé une campagne visant à motiver les étudiants de leur école par l’entremise d’une compétition.

à travers les murs de l’école. « Nous avons aussi fait une vidéo qui a été pas mal popu- laire » , a fait remarquer Frédrick. Dans ladite vidéo, une élève qui apporte des denrées pour la campagne perd l’une de ses conserves. Mais heureusement pour elle, un super héros vient à sa rescousse. « Nous avons décidé d’avoir un super héros comme porte-parole pour notre campagne, a dit Frédrick. Ça semble avoir bien fonctionné. » À l’heure demettre sous presse, le nombre exact de denrées ne pouvait être confirmé, mais plusieurs boîtes étaient déjà remplies le matin du 4 novembre.

Dans un local de l’École secondaire catho- lique La Citadelle, une dizaine d’élèves ainsi que quelques enseignants travail- laient avec acharnement le 4 novembre dernier. Tous avaient les mains remplies de denrées non périssables, puisqu’une compétition amicale venait tout juste de se clore. En effet, la campagne de denrées non périssables annuelle de La Citadelle a été bien plus courte cette année, soit du 31

The City of Cornwall is taking steps to make itself a more senior friendly community. This was one priority identified by City Council in its Strategic Plan which was updated earlier this year. Building on this, over 700 Cornwall seniors were consulted to determine what the City could do to meet this objective. Through the consultation process, suggestions for a Senior Friendly Implementation Plan were formed. A common concern of Cornwall seniors was a need for the consolidation of information about opportunities, programs and services specific to seniors. To address this concern, and as part of a new grant from

the Provincial Government, Jordan Ann Kevan de Haan has been hired as Cornwall’s Senior Friendly Community Liaison Officer. The role of Kevan de Haan is to collect and communicate information for seniors within the City of Cornwall and to advance Cornwall’s Senior Friendly Implementation Plan by encouraging specific, practical recommendations that will ensure Cornwall remains a safe, accessible and enjoyable city for everyone. Kevan de Haan is excited about her new position. “Cornwall is my home, and I love that this job will help me connect seniors with the many opportunities and services we already have within our community,” she said. “I am also looking forward to acting on the advice of Cornwall’s seniors and assisting in making our city even more age-friendly.” Pictured is Myles Cassidy, General Manager, Shared Services, and Kevan de Hann, Senior Friendly Community Liaison Officer. — supplied photo
