La taxe municipale augmente de 0,5 %
par heure. « En novembre on avait présen- té un budget déjà restreint, c’était difficile de couper encore plus », a affirmé Mme Lefaivre. Le budget devrait être approu- vé lors de la réunion régulière du 11 mars.
être capable de mettre de l’argent de côté pour nos routes, a-t-il déclaré. On a un pro- blème aigu avec les routes et les montants d’argent qu’il va falloir dépenser. Ce ne sera pas possible pour nous de juste mettre le montant qu’il faut annuellement. » Pour sa part, le conseiller Guy Félio, pré- sident du comité d’infrastructures et bâti- ments, s’est dit rassuré qu’une somme de 150 000 dollars irait au fonds de réserve pour les chemins. Il faut souligner toutefois qu’avec les nouvelles évaluations foncières de même que les frais pour la croissance, la mu- nicipalité percevra 9% de plus en revenus cette année. « Je pense que la facture de taxe des gens va être déjà augmentée suf- fisamment », a commenté pour sa part le conseiller Raymond Serrurier. Durant les discussions, également, M. Félio a déploré le fait que le département des loisirs n’ait subi aucune compression majeure. « Je suis désagréablement sur- pris que le service des loisirs n’ait aucune coupure à part couper un peu le gazon, quand on sait qu’il y a des subventions énormes qui s’en vont au service des sports. » Selon Thérèse Lefaivre, directrice des services communautaires, les services des loisirs présentaient déjà un budget restreint. Par exemple, pour l’aréna de Clarence Creek, la municipalité offrait une subvention de l’ordre d’environ 130 000 dollars pour les frais de location de gla-
ce. Le budget de 2013 prévoit une con- tribution municipale de 80 000 dollars. De plus, les utilisateurs adultes payeront l’entièreté des frais de location de glace qui passeront ainsi de 195 à 225 dollars

ROCKLAND | La taxe municipale de Clarence-Rockland pourrait finalement se limiter à une hausse de 0,5% pour 2013. C’est la commande qu’a passée le conseil au département des finances. Au départ, le conseil jonglait avec une hausse probable de 2,5%. Cette hausse a toutefois été écar- tée afin de tenir compte de la révision des évaluations foncières. Par la suite, un taux de 0% avait été proposé. Le conseil a plutôt opté pour une augmentation de 0,5% afin de financer l’achat d’une débroussailleuse. Celle-ci est évaluée à 100 000 dollars. Le conseil avait retiré une somme de 50 000 dollars prévue pour un audit pour le Com- plexe récréatif et culturel, pour permettre cet achat d’équipement. Pour le reste, le budget 2013 de la Cité de Clarence-Rockland s’en tiendra, en majeure partie, au strict nécessaire pour les opéra- tions municipales. Cela se traduira égale- ment par plusieurs compressions, notam- ment au niveau de la voirie. Le maire Marcel Guibord a tout de même tenu à souligner les sommes importantes qui devront être investies dans la voirie à l’avenir. Il a également proposé au départ une hausse d’au moins 1%. « Moi je serais d’avis qu’il nous faudrait aller chercher au moins un autre pourcent, sinon deux, pour

le passé, le maire Marcel Guibord n’en de- meure pas convaincu. « [...] il y a une impres- sion que ça ne coûtera rien pour mettre à jour cette bâtisse-là à l’avenir. C’est un point tellement important qui va affecter nos charges, nos dépenses dans le futur d’une façon excessivement importante et ça, c’est totalement oublié» Pour sa part, le conseiller Raymond Serru- rier constate un acharnement de la part du maire dans ce dossier. « [...] si on dit qu’il y a eu des irrégularités [...]vous semez le doute dans la tête des gens. Si vous avez des preuves à cet effet là, bien, appeler la PPO et formuler une plainte. Parce que là on frôle la diffamation envers l’ancien conseil et il faut que ça arrête ». Une résolution a été apportée afin d’exclure la somme de 50 000 dollars. Elle a été adoptée à sept contre deux. Marcel Gui- bord et la conseillère Diane Choinière ont voté contre la résolution.
ROCKLAND | C’est avec amertume que le maire Marcel Guibord a vu sa proposition de rouvrir les livres du Complexe récréatif et culturel rejeté par le conseil, le 12 février. Le budget prévoyait une provision d’environ 50 000 dollars pour réaliser un au- dit. Rappelons que Marcel Guibord avait fait du dossier du Complexe son cheval de ba- taille aux dernières élections. Son intention était de faire la lumière sur les coûts futurs pour le projet. Le conseiller Guy Desjardins a questionné cette dépense. Il a précisé qu’une vérifica- tion, réalisée par la firme BDO, avait déjà été faite en 2009. « S’il y a eu une vérification faite en surplus et que nos employés et les gouvernements ont passé à travers les chif- fres, pourquoi est-ce qu’on a besoin de cet audit? », a déclaré M. Desjardins. Malgré les vérifications effectuées par

Building trades protest continues gŏđŏ

dent contractors will have to choose be- tween “going underground” with all the risks to government licensing and inspec- tion requirements that might result for cli- ents, or else moving away and setting up elsewhere in Canada and then competing for Ontario contracts but taking the profits they make out of the province. “It they (government) continue with this, our have-not status will get greater,” Hillier said, “and our social programs will be at risk. It’s happening right now. I’m hearing from contractors from around the province that they are making plans to leave.” Should the meeting with Naqvi prove un- satisfactory for the lobby group, there are plans in place already for a huge gathering of contractors from all across Ontario on Feb. 28 in Toronto outside the Queens Park legislature to protest Bill 119 and demand its cancellation. “He (Naqvi) is going to see thousands of contractors at Queens Park that day,” said Hillier. “If he doesn’t repeal it (Bill 119), I will introduce a bill that day myself.”
GREGGCHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca
OTTAWA | Kill Bill 119 demand indepen- dent contractors. Representatives for a growing grassroots lobby movement among Ontario’s inde- pendent small contractors in the construc- tion trade hope to convince the province’s new labour minister to cancel Bill 119 which forces them to join and pay into the govern- ment’s workers compensation insurance program whether they want to or not. Juliette Forgues, who launched the pro- test with others last month, hopes that an afternoon meeting Feb. 15 with Yasir Naqvi, the newly-appointed labour minister in the cabinet of Ontario’s new premier Kathleen Wynne, will see some sign of support for the independent contractors. She and other representatives from the group along with MPP Randy Hillier, Progressive Conservative labour critic, gathered outside of Naqvi’s Ottawa constituency office that morning to give regional media an update on the sta- tus of the anti-Bill 119 lobby since its official launch in Casselman last month. “The government and the WSIB need to realize that we are serious,” said Forgues. “We are against the new Bill 119 and the mandatory insurance coverage. It is not the responsibility of contractors to pay the WSIB’s debt. We are hard workers and they need to listen to us.” “This (legislation) is just another exam- ple of a government entity that has gone amuck,” said Walter Pamic, an electrical contractor who belongs to several business groups that represent building sector inter- ests. The argument against Bill 119 is that in- dependent contractors already have work- ers compensation coverage at lower rates through their own private insurance dealers and this insurance covers them both on and off the job site 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The mandatory coverage through the government program just applies to a job site while work is in progress and is a needless financial hardship that just helps pay down the WSIB operating debt.
Ontario’s new labour minister Yasir Naq- vi had his first official protest rally out- side his Ottawa constituency office as local independent contractors lobbied against Bill 119. “It is nothing less than a tax grab by the government,” said Pamic Hillier predicted that Bill 119 will be more harm than help to Ontario’s construction sector. He said that many small indepen-

ROCKLAND | Un repas gastronomique, des groupes d’artistes et musiciens talen- tueux, tous les ingrédients étaient réunis pour faire du premier Gala du Président de Centraide Prescott-Russell un succès. Celui-ci avait lieu vendredi dernier à l’au- berge RiverRock Inn. Quelque 175 personnes ont pris part à cet événement qui venait marquer la fin de la campagne 2012-2013 de Centraide (UnitedWay) Prescott-Russell. « Ça a été une excellente soirée, a commenté le président d’honneur, Claude Levac. Maintenant, j’es- père que les participants au premier gala partageront leur expérience ». Le maire de Hawkesbury et président des Comtés unis, René Berthiaume, était égale- ment présent. Par le passé, il a servi à deux reprises à titre de président d’honneur. « Moi, je vois Centraide comme l’organisme qui chapeaute tous les autres organismes à but non lucratif à l’intérieur de notre com- munauté. Je vous invite à mettre le degré de plus que ça prend. Il y a seulement un degré entre l’eau chaude et l’eau tiède, alors le degré qui manque, je vous invite à l’atteindre pour vous assurer que Centraide va continuer à vouloir aider tous nos orga- nismes à l’intérieur de nos Comtés et de l’Est ontarien.» Pour l’occasion, les invités ont été accueil- lis en musique par le groupe Evergreen Club
Claude Levac en compagnie du député provincial Grant Crack.

Le décor était lui assuré par la troupe Théâtre Sans Fil et leurs marionnettes géantes. Pour le repas, la chef Michèle Legault avait carte blanche pour ravir les papilles des invités.

Mayors lobby for priority on seniors home site gŏđŏ editionap.ca
“I don’t think it’s fair that the West should subsidize a residence in the East if they don’t have access to it,” Kirby said. Russell Township Mayor Jean-Paul St- Pierre noted that private retirement homes also exist in the region. He said need should be the key factor that should determine where and if a second counties retirement residence is built. “That should be one of the consider- ations,” he said. “Who needs it most?” Mayor Barton agreed and added that the average age for a senior living in a re- tirement home in Prescott-Russell now is around 85. Parisien noted that some se- nior care facilities have to deal with special needs clients. The Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) has suggested guidelines for senior care needs.

needed to determine where a future coun- ties retirement facility should go if a new one is built to replace the existing one or if the council decides that the counties’ social service program needs a second seniors home to handle the long waiting list for openings. “Can we try to determine how cost-effec- tive it might be to run two instead of one?” asked Gary Barton, Champlain Township mayor.“People like to stay in their own com- munity.” Several mayors on the counties council suggested communities within their own municipalities that might be suitable sites for either a new or secondary residence. The mayors from Russell County pushed for having a facility to match the one already operating in Hawkesbury in Prescott Coun- ty and they received support from East Hawkesbury Mayor Robert Kirby.
regimen is considered someone “at risk” and should live close to a medical facility in case of emergency. Warden René Berthiaume, Hawkesbury’s mayor, said the counties need a long-term strategy for its residence operations. He noted his own preference for Hawkesbury but stressed that any decision must consid- er other factors. “In my mind this is important,” he said. “It must be based on need, and on the impact on our (counties) services.” Mayor Kirby had the last word in the dis- cussion, arguing that need must rule when the counties council does decide at some future point and the future social service program budget must reflect that. “My decision will not be based politically,” he said. “It will be based on what’s best for seniors. If it costs a dollar more, it costs a dollar more.”

L’ORIGNAL | Every mayor in Prescott- Russell seems to want to have a counties’ seniors retirement home in their commu- nity. The counties council is waiting for a more detailed hardcopy update report, complete with recommendations, on future planning for La Residence retirement home facility it maintains as part of its social services pro- gram for the United Counties of Prescott- Russell (UCPR). Chief Administrative Officer Stéphane Parisien provided the council with a verbal preliminary summary of the situation, noting that a planning study is Counties look into old wells L’ORIGNAL | Old wells proved a deep sub- ject for discussion at the latest counties council meeting Ray Beauregard, chairman for the Eastern Ontario Water Resources Committee (EOW- RC), and Ronda Boutz, EOWRC communica- tions director, presented the United Coun- ties of Prescott-Russell council (UCPR) Feb. 13 with a summary of the past year’s work for the regional water protection group. What claimed most of the attention of the mayors was the funding aid the EOWRC has provided through other agencies like the South Nation Conservation Author- ity (SNC) to help with finding and closing off old and unused wells on private lands. Since 2004 the EOWRC has helped finance closure of more than a hundred old wells in the Prescott-Russell region alone but Boutz indicated that figure is a figurative drop in the bucket about the risk that old and un- used wells can present in both the counties and the rest of Eastern Ontario. “There are hundreds of thousands of wells out there,” she said. “There are prob- ably thousands of wells out there that we haven’t addressed.” The EOWRC’s well-decommissioning pro- gram provides farmers and other landown- ers with funding aid to close off both old wells that have gone dry or working wells that are no longer needed. “We’ve seen everything from old stone dug wells to tile dug wells to drilled wells,” said Boutz. “If it’s a hole in the ground, we’ll cap it.” The two main problems are convincing some landowners that an old well needs capping and then finding these wells. Some are easy to spot aboveground, while oth- ers may be boarded up and hidden under brush or other growth and their existence may even be unknown to the present land- owner. Those pose the greatest risk to both livestock and people. Landowners interested in getting help dealing with their old wells can contact Boutz through the SNC office, toll-free, at 1-877-984-2948 , extension 251. VISION@EAP.ON.CA PRESCOTT-RUSSELL

Support for memories

Dozens of people, young and old, turned out at the Clarence-Rockland Arena to march laps around the mezzanine balcony for the annual Walk for Memories in sup- port of Alzheimer research. Pledging their support to the cause were representatives from RBC with a cheque for $750 and les Filles d’Isabelle with a $100 cheque. This year’s walk in Rockland raised more than $3400 for the cause.

School district dismisses think-tank “report card” gŏđŏ editionap.ca
Carswell stated in a press release. “The most valuable information we consider is derived from the regular and ongoing assessments conducted by teachers and principals, as well as that furnished by the (education ministry) EQAQ and other district assess- ments. The ranking of schools on a com- parative basis, such as the Fraser Report el- ementary school rankings, does not offer a precise understanding of exactly where im- provement efforts should be directed and, as such, is regarded by our staff as having limited use.” The B.C.-based Fraser Institute has been issuing its annual report cards for several years now on elementary and secondary schools in B.C., Alberta, Ontario and Qué- bec in Canada and in Washington state in the U.S.A. Its rankings are based on pro-
vincial exam results and other report data from the various education ministries and departments. The agency’s report cards rank schools on their performance in various areas based on the data received. Carswell criticized the Fraser Institute’s report card setup as too simplistic and failing to focus on the stu- dents themselves in all areas besides aca- demic.
“We don’t teach schools, we teach stu- dents,” he stated. “It is more accountable and useful to use data that measures achievement on a student by student basis. The data we receive from EQAQ is far richer and more valuable in informing our efforts than the simple rank ordering of schools provided by the Fraser Report.” He questioned whether the Fraser Insti- tute’s annual report card has any value to parents of students. “I also think we need to assess the value of the Fraser Report to public education after more than a decade of reports,” Car- swell stated. “This may be a big event for the Fraser Institute, but it is not something that helps us or our parents to assess how well their child is doing in school or to de- termine ways to improve their learning.”

BROCKVILLE | The Fraser Institute has is- sued its annual “report card” on elemen- tary schools all across Canada but the card is getting a failing grade on its own merits from the Upper Canada district. Ian Carswell, associate director for the Up- per Canada District School Board (UCDSB), dismissed the conservative think-tank’s an- nual report card on schools as of “limited use” in show how well any school or school district does in educating students. “The board remains open to any data or study that provides information leading to improvements in teaching and learning,”
