Reviving the cassette tape trend

FRANCIS RACINE Francis.Racine@eap.on.ca
Cornwall native also wears several different hats. He hosts his own show on the online radio station and also owns his very own record label.That’s not something you hear of everyday. “Yeah, it picked up these last months,” he says with a heartwarming smile. “It started when I was doing shows. I used to hand out little things and I would write on them Pretty Cool! Records . It wasn’t a real thing.” But after he noticed howmany individu- als inquired about the name, he decided to
launch the company. “It’s been very interesting,” he admits. “I do most of the work, like the art, but I sometimes ask locally for help on doing covers and such.” Coleman is also responsible for all the advertising and distribution. But one thing separates his record label from others. “I primarily release cassettes.” With the renaissance of vinyl, major mu- sic producers were keen on reproducing and republishing records. Whereas Coleman
believes that cassette tapes have never truly left. “If you want big band names, your best bet is going with vinyl,” he expresses. “But if you want some more obscure music, stuff you don’t hear on the radio too often, cas- settes is the way to go!” Presently, Pretty Cool! Records has re- leased two tapes and is currently waiting on a third one. But the whole process is a lot of work. “I do the covers myself I ask someone local,” says Coleman. “I also cut them all individually.
It seems that Chad Coleman is a natural when it comes to radio. His smooth voice and rocker like appearance go hand in hand with his intense love of music. Sitting in the soundproof studio of the Dunet Communication Studio, located off Pitt Street, the man can’t help but smile when he’s asked about music. Although he wears sunglasses, the

Community cooperation leads to arrests
That way, I save some money. It’s all about money management. I save where I can.” Unfortunately for the Cornwall man, the only thing he can’t actually produce himself are the tapes. “I have a place in Montreal that does them for me,” he says. Being that the company is prettymuch a one-man operation, Coleman must always come up with creative ways in order to have his creations known to the public. “It gets challenging sometimes, but I love it.” One of his most ingenious ideas is to offer a walkman to the first person that pre-orders his upcoming tape. “It’s something that I thought would be interesting.” Taking the jump into the world of radio Having been a lover of music for most of his life, Coleman took the jump into Internet radio less than a year ago. “I thought that it could be interesting.” And interesting it has been. The man’s show, called The Pretty Cool Records Show , focuses on obscure hits from
bands most people have never heard of. “If I want to listen to the Rolling Stones or some other well-known band, I know where to tune into,” he explained. “This show is for people wanting to discover new and obscure bands.” His show is also made up of several sur- prises, such as having a live band in the studio. The space isn’t as big as onemight think. “It got pretty packed,” Coleman said laugh- ing heartily. “We had the drummer in the corner of the room, trying to not make too much noise.” Every Thursday, at 6:30 p.m., the music lover goes live in the studio. “I love it,” he said. “People call live and we have a blast. At first, I thought it would only be about playing music, but now I realize it’s also about creating content.” In the near future, Coleman hopes to be able to accommodate a live audience during one of his show. “It might get small, but it would definitely be interesting!”
The Cornwall Regional Task Force (CRTF) investigators didn’t have to go far in order to seize illegal tobacco. On September 12, they went to the Canada Border Service Agency Cornwall Port of Entry to follow up on a domestic contraband seizure. There, they arrested 43-year-old Kevin Buckshot of Akwesasne, for being in possession of approximately 180 kilograms of fine-cut tobacco that was concealed in ten vacuum-sealed bags. Theman was released on a Promise-to- Appear in Cornwall court on October 20. Since their community relations “blitz” operation held in June, the CRTF continues to receive cooperation from the general public. Another example of this occurred on September 13 when officers received
information of suspicious activity taking place at a local shoreline South Glengarry campground. An investigation led to a vehicle stop. Twenty-year-old Danny Rheaume from Salaberry-de-Valleyfield was arrested for being in possession of approximately 605 kilograms of fine cut contraband tobacco. He too faces a breach of probation charge. He was later released on a Promise-to- Appear in Cornwall court on October 25. In addition to these seizures, on September 14, the CRTF participated in an operation led by the Valleyfield RCMP and Sûreté du Québec that resulted in a seizure of approximately 1,450 kilograms of contraband fine-cut tobacco and the arrest of one man.

I think art is important because it shows a lively, vibrant community. A community without art is dull. – Laura Stevens
The arrival of fall is one of the most colourful events of the year in Cornwall and the Counties. The season dresses in its most vibrant hues while local artists open their creative space to visitors. On September 24 and 25, more than 60 artists showcased their art in 26 different locations throughout the region during the Apples and Art Studio Tour. «The goal of the tour is to give the residents and visitors of Cornwall and area an opportunity to enjoy art in the spaces where it is actually created,» said Virginia Lake, one of the organizers of the event. «It is a chance to meet the artists, to chat, to see their work in a natural setting and enjoy the wellness of visual beauty and friendly company. People discovered all types of artists who work with paint, ink, clay, fine stones, wood and glass to create original pieces of art.» — photo Francis Racine

Le Centre de généalogie et archives St-Laurent a célébré son 30 e anniversaire le 24 septembre dernier. Une cinquantaine de visiteurs ont franchi les portes de la Bibliothèque publique de Cornwall afin de prendre part à l’événement au cours duquel on a dévoilé un projet d’envergure, entrepris par Nichole White, présidente du Centre. En effet, Mme White a décidé, l’an dernier, de mettre un visage aux noms qui figuraient sur le monument de guerre de la ville. « Je n’ai pas encore terminé », a expliqué Mme White. Pour se faire, la présidente a passé plusieurs heures à vérifier plusieurs anciennes copies du Standard-Freeholder. Ayant maintenant retrouvé la plupart des photos des soldats des deux grandes guerres, Mme White espère maintenant retrouver les photos des soldats ayant péri lors de la Guerre de Corée. Ci-dessus, on reconnait Mme White à l’arrière et Marcelle Leduc-Paquette, fondatrice du Centre. — photo Francis Racine

Cornwall BMX racers make city proud
Hawkesbury accueille le Salon du livre de l’Est ontarien Le comité ad hoc du Salon du livre de l’Est ontarien a annoncé plus tôt cette semaine que l’événement aura lieu cette année à Hawkesbury. Ce salon, qui se veut une rencontre pour tous les fervents de lecture et offre une occasion de goûter à la littérature franco-ontarienne et francophone en général, aura lieu du 27 au 29 octobre à l’École secondaire catholique régionale de Hawkesbury, située au 572, rue Kitchener. Il sera possible de s’y procurer des livres de tous genres et de bouquiner à son aise. Au menu, diverses activités telles que des ateliers, des rencontres d’auteurs, des séances de signatures, des lectures d’extraits, des prestations et bien d’autres. De plus, le Salon comprendra des exposants regroupant distributeurs et éditeurs. – Stéphane Fortier Rabies prevention program The Ministry of Natural Resources is doing a “bait drop” project during the late summer season to help eliminate the risk of rabies in the Eastern Ontario region. MNR has contracted for an air drop of 30,000 pieces of bait containing the rabies vaccine over an area in the southern part of the region, including Wolfe Island, the Thousand Islands Bridge district, and around near Cornwall.The baits will help immunize most skunks, foxes, and raccoons within the designated area, who may have wandered up from the upper New York state region into Ontario, where there are confirmed reports of rabid raccoons. The bait drop will help to eliminate both the risk of a full rabies condition developing in any of these animals, and also prevent them from carrying the virus into other parts of Eastern Ontario and Southern Ontario during their wanderings. – Gregg Chamberlain

After some strong performances at qualifying events throughout the summer, four Cornwall BMX Club members proudly represented the city at the 2016 Ontario Provincial BMX Championship earlier this month, and came home with some hardware and championship number plates for their efforts. Balance bike rider and crowd favourite, “Sweet” Sophie Drouin, once again faced off against some serious competitors in the 4-year old Balance Bike Class. She did well in her qualifying rounds finishing in fourth and second place. The club’s 10-year old boys also had a great showing. With this being his first season as a BMX racer, 10-year old Novice rider Cohen Shail impressed the crowd with some great passes in the first corner during his second qualifying round. Though he didn’t make his main, he did go on to finish in the 8 th position overall in Ontario, in the Novice/Intermediate Class, earning him a provincial ranking and number plate. Sam “The Skunk” Drouin qualified for the main event during his second qualifying round by finishing in a strong first in the 10-year old Expert class. Finally, Cornwall BMX Club president Dan Drouin took home the #2 Championship Plate in the 36-40-year old Novice/ Intermediate class, surprising many, including himself. Above, 4-year old “Sweet” Sophie Drouin (#174) is focused and determined during the Provincial Championship’s main balance bike event. — photos by Dan Drouin and Krissy Bougie-Drouin.

QUESTION 1: Who is the author of the famous Canadian novel Anne of Green Gables?
yons that reach 1200 metres deep; unique caves like Grotte Valerie, home to dozens of ancient Dall’s sheep skeletons; and Rabbitkettle Hotsprings, source of the largest tufa mounds in Canada. The first human occupation of the lands that make up Nah- anni National Park Reserve can be traced back nearly 10,000 years. Evidence of prehistoric human presence has been found at various sites in the park. Local legends refer to a group of mountain-dwelling people, the Naha tribe, that mys- teriously disappeared from the area. Linguistic similarities betweenmodern local Dehe dialects and the Navajo language in the southern US have led to speculation that the Navajo descended from the lost Naha people. As the Klondike gold rush saw explorers attempt to use the South Nahanni River as a highway to riches found in the famous gold fields of the Yukon, the unforgiving and mysterious nature of the area gave birth to a multitude of similar legends and lore. As far as adventure goes, not many places in Canada can match the experiences to be had in Nahanni National Park Reserve. It’s a mountaineering mecca, a paddler’s paradise and a hiking haven. Park interpreters can be found along the trails to tell stories of local Dene culture. River trips and flightseeing excursions can be booked. If you’re looking for an unforgettable Canadian experience far off the beaten path, Nahanni National Park Reserve is yours to explore.
Canada’s national parks system—the largest in the world— comprises 47 locations where the full spectrum of the coun- try’s incredible biodiversity is represented and protected. From the Atlantic, Arctic and Pacific coasts to the forests, glaciers, plains and deserts that shape the landscape of every province, our parks system is a natural jewel that underlines the essence of Canada: wild, diverse and unfathomably big. Among this infinite variety of flora, fauna and geology, one park stands out as the most diverse of all: Nahanni National Park Reserve of Canada, an untamed slice of wilderness that stretches 30,050 square kilometres across the Northwest Ter- ritories. The significance of Nahanni National Park Reserve’s natural heritage earned it one of the first four UNESCOWorldHeritage Site designations in 1978. The park is located in the south- west portion of the Northwest Territories and centres on the valleys of the South Nahanni and Flat Rivers. It protects part of the Mackenzie Mountains Natural Region and encom- passes three of Canada’s ecozones, namely the Taiga Plains, the Taiga Cordillera and the Boreal Cordillera. The dramatic South Nahanni River is the centrepiece of the park and was proclaimed a Canadian Heritage River in 1987 for both its natural and recreational value. Along the South Nahanni River, one-of-a-kind features abound. These include the powerful Virginia Falls, which boast a vertical drop twice as tall as Niagara Falls; river can-

Canada’s Croatian community According to the 2011 National Household Survey, nearly 115,000 Canadi- ans have some degree of Croatian heritage. Communities of Croatian Cana- dians are present inmost major Canadian cities, with large concentrations in Ontario. A small town in Saskatchewan, Kenaston, is home to the largest percentage of people of Croatian origin, with 17,5 per cent of its 285 inhab- itants identifying as ethnic Croatians.
ONTARIO
Flower: White trillium
In 1937, white trillium (Trillium grandiflorum) was designated Ontario’s provincial flower. It blooms in mid-spring and favours deciduous forests in which to propagate. Its seeds are dispersedmainly by ants and sometimes deer. Once the seeds sprout, it can take another seven to ten years to flower.
Historians believe that the first Croatians to arrive in Canada were two sailors that served as crew on the third voyage of Jacques Cartier. A few years later, the French government sent Austrian military units, in which several Croatians served, to help defend New France. These French-mandated Croatians were also involved in the Cariboo Gold Rush of the 1860s and the Cariboo Gold Rush of the 1890s, as well as British Columbia’s early salmon fisheries. The main period of Croatian migration, however, spans the 20th century. During this time, around 80,000 Croatians settled in Canada, motivated mainly by the promise of a better life. During the 1920s and the post-WWII years, a large number of these immigrants came to Canada to protest the political conditions in their homeland. Today, Croatian Canadians play a large role on Canada’s cultural landscape. Actors Stana Katic and Alicia Josipovic, documentary filmmaker Frank Cvitanovich, pro athletes Nikola Andrijevic (soccer) and Joe Sakic (hockey), as well as numerous scientists, politicians, businesspeople and activists, all share Croatian heritage while calling Canada home.

FRANCIS RACINE francis.racine@eap.on.ca Les francophones rendent hommage à Gaëtan Simard et participant dans divers sports, dont le hockey, le ballon-balai et la balle molle. Il a été entraineur sportif, arbitre et a travaillé activement dans le mouvement scout.
Le nom de Gaëtan Simard, enseignant à la retraite et bénévole acharné, figurera désormais sur la Promenade d’honneur. Une cinquantaine de personnes ont tenu à braver le froid afin de rendre hommage à M. Simard à l’occasion de cette sixième édition de la cérémonie de dévoilement, qui se déroulait vendredi soir dernier. « Je tiens à remercier tous les gens qui sont ici ce soir, a déclaréM. Simard, visiblement ému.» Né en 1938 à Alfred, M. Simard a enseigné dans la région de Prescott-Russell et à Hearst avant de s’installer à Cornwall en 1968 où il a enseigné le français et l’éducation physique dans plusieurs écoles dont St-Jean-Bosco, La Nativité, Sts-Martyrs-Canadiens, Notre- Dame, Jean XXIII et Sainte-Croix. Il a aussi été très engagé auprès des franco- phones comme organisateur, coordonnateur
M. Simard a reçu de nombreuses dis- tinctions pour son engagement commu- nautaire, dont le Prix de leadership du Club Richelieu pour sa contribution auprès de la jeunesse ainsi que la reconnaissance du District de l’Est de l’Ontario du Club Optimiste International comme conseiller/ représentant francophone auprès des jeunes en Amérique du Nord. En 2009, il a obtenu une reconnaissance provinciale pour ses activités au sein de la collectivité. En 2001, il a reçu lamédaille du gouverneur général aux Jeux de la franco- phonie. L’année suivante, le Centre culturel de Cornwall l’a désigné comme personna- lité francophone de l’année. Au cours des années, on lui a souvent rendu hommage en raison de son bénévolat. En 1988, il a été l’un des fondateurs du

Club Optimiste, au sein duquel il est toujours actif. En tant quemembre Optimiste, il a créé le Club Octogone pour les jeunes franco- phones et organisé de nombreuses activités avec les membres. Dans les écoles de la ville, il a aidé à organiser les concours oratoires et Optimath, la Course contre la drogue et des danses pour les élèves de 7 e et 8 e . Il a aussi occupé unemultitude de postes et est un des membres fondateurs de l’As- semblée Marcel-Renaud des Chevaliers de Colomb. Son nom est aussi associé au Centre de traitement pour enfants, la Foire des petits Francos, le Rallye automobile, la Journée nationale des enfants et le programme Toupaix des Optimistes visant la promotion de la non-violence. Candidatures de qualité « J’ai été surpris par les candidatures
de cette année, a affirmé Wayne Gosselin, membre du comité de la Promenade d’hon- neur. Nos organisations francophones ont sélectionné une dizaine de franco- phones. Tous étaient des bons candidats et candidates.» L’événement est organisé par le Club Richelieu ainsi que son partenaire, le Centre culturel de Cornwall. Rappelons que pour être choisi lauréat de la Promenade d’honneur, le récipien- daire doit avoir fait preuve de fierté envers sa langue et doit en avoir fait la promotion, tout en affichant fièrement ses couleurs et ses convictions. De plus, il doit être engagé activement dans sa communauté en orga- nisant, en coordonnant ou en participant à diverses activités dans le milieu culturel, éducatif, sportif ou autre.
À la suite de la cérémonie de la Promenade d’honneur, l’Association canadienne-française de l’Ontario (ACFO) de Stormont, Dundas et Glengarry (SD et G) a organisé un vins et fromages au Centre civique.

Que de différentes perspectives Les élèves francophones de Cornwall ont célébré la fête du drapeau franco-ontarien le 23 septembre dernier. Puisqu’il pleuvait, les élèves ne se sont pas rendus au Monument de la francophonie, chemin Water. Les levers du drapeau ont plutôt eu lieu dans chacune des écoles. Ci-dessus, on reconnait Joanne Gagnon, Constable Jeff Lalonde, ainsi que les élèves Amarra Labbé, Olivia Baillie, Alexis Glaude, Kohlin Bergeron-Malette, Caleb Villeneuve, tous de l’école primaire publique Rose-des-Vents. — photo fournie
Les élèves en arts visuels seniors de l’École secondaire publique L’Héritage ont eu la chance d’explorer des leçons thématiques et théoriques sur une variété de perspectives culturelles, régionales et sociales, telle qu’une leçon sur l’évolution de l’esthétique. L’environnement dans lequel l’humanité évolue influe énormément sur les comportements et opinions humaines. Le langage, les symboles et les systèmes de croyances auxquels nous adhérons sont constitués de plusieurs idéologies, valeurs et modèles de comportement qui sont transmis par les traditions et qui s’expriment selon plusieurs normes sociales. Ci-dessus, Danika Tessier, élève de 12 e année, qui présente son œuvre en arts visuels qui commente les canons de beauté. — photo fournie

YOUR HOROSCOPE for the week of September 25 to October 1, 2016
THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: SCORPIO, SAGITTARIUS AND CAPRICORN.
ARIES You’ll be given a supervisory position at work. It’s important for you to learn to manage your emotions and find healthy ways of expressing them on an ongoing basis. Your health may be negatively impacted if you don’t. TAURUS New eating habits combined with physical exercise will give you instant results. This’ll provide you with a real sense of satisfac- tion and you’ll feel very proud of yourself. GEMINI Words will come easily to you and you’ll be able to clearly express your feelings. You may also be quick to criticize. Be careful not to make inappropriate comments. CANCER Carefully check all your bills this week, especially if your financial situation becomes more difficult. It’s possible that you’ll find a mistake and save a lot of money or recuperate substantial sums. LEO You’ll participate in a personal or professional activity that will appeal to your competitive spirit. You cannot bring yourself to accept second place and will reap all the honours. VIRGO You’ll need to do more exercise if you start feeling really tired. Adopting a more active lifestyle will give you more energy and a busier social life. LIBRA Curiously, stress will benefit you this week. It’ll give you the motivation to achieve some brilliant feats. Take the time to balance the different spheres of your life. SCORPIO Everything will fall into place, allowing you to start your own small business or climb the career ladder at work. You’ll discover that you have great leadership skills. SAGITTARIUS A vacation project is sure to be on the horizon. You should start preparing (pass- port, vaccinations, etc.) even if you’re only leaving in a few months. CAPRICORN You’ll witness an injustice that the people around you will react to. By suggesting some changes, you’ll play an important role in restoring harmony. AQUARIUS You do not tolerate injustice well and tend to resolve such situations yourself. You’ll play the role of police officer and judge this week. More sensitivity will help you to manage this complex situation. PISCES You’ll work with great energy and rigour to conclude an agreement or a contract. You could suffer from anxiety and insom- nia at times. Fortunately, a great success awaits you.
