CAO tops sunshine list of city employees

By Greg Kielec The city’s chief administrative officer leads the list of Cornwall employees on Ontario’s sunshine list of $100,000-plus earners in 2011. City Chief Administrative Officer Paul Fitzpatrick raked in $183,079.70 plus $1,924.14 in benefits, according to a list re- leased Friday by the Ontario Ministry of Finance. There are 45 city employees who earned more than $100,000 last year, according to the provincial document Coming second on the list is Cornwall Police Chief Dan Parkinson, who took in $152,650 plus $7,129 in benefits, closely followed by Deputy Chief Danny Aikman, who earned $142,332 plus $5,129 in bene- fits. Tied for fourth on the list are city public works manager Norm Levac and city planner Stephen Alexander, who each earned $137,017 plus $3,303 in benefits last year. City finance manager Maureen Adams nailed down fifth spot on the list with $133,591 in salary and $3,265 in benefits last year.

ures 1 cm of rain equal to a foot of snow,” Shaver wrote. The Cornwall Chamber of Commerce in- vites Moneysense to visit Cornwall and get a firsthand look at what our city has to offer its residents, Shaver wrote. The chamber also encourages residents to follow Mayor Bob Kilger’s lead and not let the outcome of this survey distract them from the many positive attributes Cornwall has to offer, he wrote. Ottawa placed number one again in the annual survey, which considers factors such as climate, ease of travel, affordable housing, population growth and unem- ployment. In explaining the survey, MoneySense wrote that looking at the economic data for Canadian cities in 2012, “it becomes clear that how we live defines us as much as where we live.” “Not only is our urban experience varied depending on whether we live in down- town Montreal of in small-town Saskatchewan, but our ability to access health care or find a job or afford a home is as diverse as our land and our climate.” Take a close look at the data and you’ll find the top-rated cities aren’t perfect or even close to it any category. They are how- ever above average in most categories, re- sulting in an overall high standard of living. This year’s list has been expanded from previous years to include 190 cities and towns with populations over 10,000. To compile our list MoneySense took munici- pal data and ranked the cities in 22 cate- gories and then gave all the cities an overall ranking. A total of 105 points was up for grabs. Each category was allotted a number of points depending on the importance of the category.

heap among the best places to live in Canada. The Cornwall and Area Chamber of Com- merce wrote it in a press release it “is sur- prised and somewhat suspect” of the results of the recent MoneySense survey. “The chamber has reviewed the findings of the survey and will continue to study the methodology used in determining the de- cline in our rating,” said chamber president Rick Shaver in a press release issued this af- ternoon. Shaver insists the data and methodology used in the study is confusing and not the most accurate way to grade the cities. He also noted the rating other eastern Ontario municipalities also dropped in the survey.

The city fared espe- cially poorly in house- hold average income -- $61,070 – which placed it 176th out of 190 cities surveyed. Residents are also plagued with a low percentage of discre- tionary income – 25.85 per cent – placing it 133rd in the survey. The city also ranked in the bottom half of the study for the number of

He also noted it appears some categories are based on projections, rather than accu- rate numbers. “The most baffling, is the un- employment rate at 12 per cent, which the chamber feels is close to double the actual

City launching weekly recycling Monday to curb landfill waste

By Greg Kielec

Making Cornwall more environmentally friendly has been one of Cornwall Mayor Bob Kilger’s pet projects. In less than two weeks, the city will put a key part of that vision in place. As of Monday, April 2, recyclables will be picked up weekly on residents’ regular garbage collection day. And all recyclable materials -- with the exception of cardboard -- can be placed in the same container. All single family households will be receiv- ing a new blue box in the coming days. In ad- dition to the new blue box, the old blue and black boxes may also be used. As in the past, residents are asked to place their garbage and recyclables at the curb prior to 7 a.m. on their regular collection day. Cornwall Mayor Bob Kilger has lamented the city’s poor environmental record as a sore spot when meeting with other municipal leaders at conferences like the Association of the Municipalities of Ontario. “This enhancement will make the recycling program more convenient for residents,” he said in a city release. “We hope residents take advantage of this improved service.” The city’s waste diversion rate stands at an abysmal 24 per cent, well below the provin- cial average of around 60 per cent. The weekly recycling is part of a five-year waste management master plan adopted by the city in 2010 to increase waste diversion rate, which Councillor Bernadette Clement called “embarrassing” in late 2011. Residents should also keep an eye on the mail for the new waste and recycling collec- tion calendar, according to the city. The cal- endar contains the collection day map for the city as well as a variety of information and tips on garbage collection, recycling, com- posting, the leaf and yard waste program, hazardous waste collection days, and much more. The new blue boxes are being purchased with the assistance of a grant of roughly $55,000 from Waste Diversion Ontario through the Continuous Improvement Fund. The new 22-gallon containers are easier to carry and can hold more material than the traditional recycling containers in use in the city.

Residents can now place all of their glass, metal, plastic and paper recyclables in a sin- gle container. For cardboard, residents are asked to flatten it and set it beside their recy- cling container in bundles nomore than three feet high, three feet wide and 12 inches thick. Alternatively, flattened cardboard pieces can also be placed in an open cardboard box no larger than 2.5 feet high, 2.5 feet wide and 2.5 feet deep. “We want to increase the city’s recycling rate and divert more waste from the city landfill, and we need the entire community to play a part in helping us meet this goal,” said Nicole Robertson, solid waste supervi- sor. To that end, the city is asking residents to show their commitment by making a pledge to recycle - and in the process they can score a chance to win a $500 Home Depot gift card and other great prizes! To participate, residents are asked to visit the city website (www.Cornwall.ca), make a pledge to recycle and fill out the 1 Green Cornwall quiz. Other prizes up for grabs in- clude 20 $25 Home Depot gift cards and 10 backyard composters. Full contest details can be found on the city website.

Être capable d’échanger dans les deux langues

au moment où nous devrions vivre dans le respect de chacun et de nos droits indi- viduels en tant que Canadien(ne), On- tarien(ne), nous sommes encore à nous définir et à nous justifier. La Loi sur les services en français a été adoptée et mise en vigueur il y a plus de vingt-cinq ans. Elle a été acceptée par tous les partis à l’Assemblée législative de l’Ontario en 1986. Cette loi marquante reconnaît que la langue française est une *langue his- torique et honorée en Ontario*. Je peux vous assurer que j’appuie cette loi à cent pourcent. J’ai grandi et je vis dans une commu- nauté bilingue à Alexandria, située dans la Municipalité de Glengarry Nord.

Ici, tous les résidents francophones et an- glophones font affaire ensemble, sont bénévoles ensemble, jouent et travaillent ensemble. Nous rions, pleurons, parta- geons ensemble et nous développons des amitiés qui se transforment souvent en mariages. Mes deux enfants ont fait leurs études dans nos écoles francophones car j’ai tou- jours cru et je crois encore que pouvoir communiquer et faire affaire en français et en anglais, était une partie fondamen- tale de leur éducation. Ils sont parfaite- ment bilingues. Je continue à travailler à améliorer ma communication verbale en français et je peux vous avouer que même si ce n’est pas toujours facile, c’est énormément

It’s for the good of the entire popula- tion, including anglophones and fran- cophone’s.

To the editor:

It is unreasonable for the South Stormont council to base its decision to withhold its annual $30,000 donation to the CCH on such an assertion.

Bryan McGillis’ characterization of the Cornwall Community Hospital’s (CCH) efforts to meet its legal obligations to offer services in accordance with the French Language Services Act is false and tantamount to hate mongering. It is wrong and inflammatory to say that at CCH ‘’the scales have been tipped too far the other way (to accommodate fran- cophone’s)’’ and that there is an exclu- sion of Anglophone nurses.

COMMUNITY FOCUS

Former cop gives back to community

By Lisa Etherington-Runions For much of his life, Raymond John O’- Collin, has dedicated himself to helping others. The Cornwall resident, formerly from Montreal, has accomplished a lot in his life, and feels his success is due to his ca- reer as a police officer, and also having a happy marriage and children. Life was not always rosy for O’Collin, and as a youngster growing up in Mon- treal, he had to fend for himself from the age of 13. For survival he became a member of the Montreal Police Juvenile Club so as he could play sports, and he found a job and worked hard, not knowing what his future held. A boss later made an impression on O’- Collin and taught him to be helpful and honest. As a result, O’Collin stayed out of trouble and later became a policeman so as he could help people, hoping to make a difference in their lives. The hardest part about this was finding out he could not change the world, and O’Collin had to learn that all people are different, and Ray O’Collin has dedicated life to helping others

must be treated as individuals. Today, as a retired police officer, O’- Collin hopes that his work as a volunteer helps others. The man, whose friends feel he has a great sense of humour, is a recipi- ent of the Long Service/Good Conduct medal from the Montreal Police Club, the Military Collectors Club Medal for dedica- tion to the club, and in 2005 he received the Senior Volunteer of the Year award for his contributions to the community. O’Collin is also a member of the Seaway Seniors Centre, the Canadian Police In- signia Collectors Club, the Military Collec- tors Club of Canada, the Seaway Valley Theatre group, and a senior representative on the Canada Day Committee, where he promises this year's celebration will be nothing less than spectacular. O’Collin feels that you are never too old to learn. He has overcome obstacles in his life, such as a bout with prostate cancer, and would like to expand his horizons by improving his knowledge of Canada, while working as hard as he can at his vol- unteer ventures. “I would also like to travel to the United Kingdom and visit Ireland, Scotland, Eng- land, and Wales, visiting museums and historical places,” said O’Collin. When not volunteering, or dreaming about travel, O’Collin also likes to read, “especially mysteries, and assorted arti- cles in Good Times, and Senior Times,” he quips with a smile.

alive, real or imaginary that O’Collin would like to meet he replied, “Yes, I would like to chat with Robert Peel who started the British Police in the early 1800’s. Now that would be exciting.” Success for O’Collin is a happy mar- riage, a family to be proud of, and health. O’Collin has all of this and values very much his wife, Norma, who has been his best positive influence for 52 years. “She has always been there to support me,” said O’Collin. “ My father in law years ago also set an example of what a family is all about. I also value my family who I am very proud of, and the friends and people who I have been fortunate to meet.” O’Collin’s favourite motto is: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” O’Collin has witnessed many things in his career as a policeman, and would like to see world peace and an end to poverty and child abuse. When asked if there was anything in his life that he would like to change or do again he simply says, “ my life is com- plete, I would not change a thing. In the future, I see myself exactly where I am, at home with my wife and family.” “Eventually, when I leave this world, I would like it to be said that I tried hard to be a good person, and I set a good exam- ple to my family, friends, and those I came in contact with.”

O’Collin also enjoys music, particularly anything from the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s, and singers like Nana Mouskouri, Anne Mur- ray, and Sarah Brightman, as well as watching TV, going for walks, and work- ing on his hobby of collecting police patches and badges. His interests also lie in craft shows, flea markets and antiques. When asked if there was anyone dead or Special photo City resident Raymond O’Collin is pic- tured with his wife, Norma.

Cornwall Colts knock off Jr. Senators

Boxing championships coming to Nav Centre

By Greg Kielec

The Journal

The Cornwall Jr. A Colts have advanced to the second round of the Central Canada Hockey League playoffs after dis- patching the Ottawa Junior Senators 4-1 Thursday night in Cornwall. The Spinks twins scored three of the four Colts goals, Tylor with one in the first pe- riod and Tyson with two in the second pe- riod to lead the Colts to the win in front of more than 1,200 hometown fans. Kyle Baun also scored for Cornwall. Ben Robillard scored Ottawa’s lone goal in the third period. Lukas Hafner was outstanding in net for Cornwall, making a number of key saves throughout the game, including one on a penalty shot early in the third period. The Colts face the Hawkesbury Hawks in the CCHL semi-finals which begin in Corn- wall this (Wednesday) evening. The two teams meet up in Hawkesbury Friday at 7:30 p.m. before returning to Cornwall Monday.

The Nav Centre in Cornwall will host the Canadian Amateur Boxing Association “Pan-American” 2012 Women’s Elite Continental Boxing Championships early next month. Fifteen countries have registered and close to 150 athletes and officials have con- firmed their participation in the champi- onships slated from April 4-7, according to a press release from the city. “This is the first time this competition is held in Canada,” said Francis Beaulieu, project manager with the Canadian Ama- teur Boxing Association. “This competition is also a prelude to the last qualifications for the 2012 Olympics in London.” Ten boxers from Canada are taking part in the event, the maximum allowed for any given country. Among them are Mandy Bu- jold and Mary Spencer, both potential Olympic medallists in London this sum- mer.

Photo by Greg Kielec Tyson Spink scores his second goal for the game to give the Cornwall Colts a 3-0 lead over the Ottawa Junior Senators Thursday night in Cornwall. The Colts won the game 4-1 to take the CCHL quarter-final series.

The teams are back in Hawkesbury Tues- day evening for Game 4. The Colts are back in their regular time slot at the Ed Lumley Arena for Game 5 next Thursday.

Propriétaire et fier de l’être

Dans la majorité des cas, l’achat d’une mai- son est une bonne idée. Être propriétaire, c’est avoir un chez-soi qui répond à ses goûts, à ses besoins, à son style de vie et à ses projets d’avenir. Il est vrai que l’accession à la proprié- té résulte souvent d’un changement d’or- dre familial ou professionnel. Soit d’un désir de se rapprocher de son lieu de travail, à la suite d’une promotion ou bien pour vivre en couple, sinon agrandir sa famille. Nombreux sont les nouveaux propriétaires qui constatent que ce statut vient avec des responsabilités, mais surtout beaucoup d’avantages. FLEXIBILITÉ Depuis le temps que vous en rêviez de ces boiseries et de ces portes françaises! Être enfin chez soi, c’est également avoir le loisir de décorer son habitat selon son style propre, mais aussi de le rénover et même de le modifier à mesure qu’évolue sa situation. SÉCURITÉ FINANCIÈRE On ne le dira jamais assez : investir dans la pierre est le meilleur des investissements. C’est se bâtir un patrimoine et c’est une façon de stabiliser le coût du loyer. Les paiements hypo- thécaires permettent de se constituer petit à petit un capital sûr, que l’on peut récupérer à la vente de la maison. QUALITÉ DE VIE Être propriétaire de sa maison, c’est une impor- tante source de bien-être. Il y a plus d’espace pour loger la famille et les enfants peuvent courir sur le parquet sans déranger les voisins. Il en va de même pour les parents qui désormais peuvent organiser des fêtes surprises dans le jardin, sans demander la permission de quiconque.

Different types of gutters

L’aspect sécuritaire de votre porte de garage doit être pris en considération dès l’achat. Choisissez un modèle de qualité qui assure un excellent fonctionnement. De plus, une bonne installation effectuée par des professionnels favorise un environnement sécuritaire. Vous pouvez faciliter l’ouverture et la fermeture de votre porte de garage, tout en prolon- geant la durée de vie des composantes. Il suffit de lubrifier les pièces de métal avec un lubri- fiant pour métal et les coupe-froid du cadrage extérieur avec un lubrifiant à base de silicone. N’oubliez pas que la porte de garage est un gros objet mobile et qu’à ce titre, elle présente des dangers réels d’utilisation. Lorsque les mécanismes de sécurité ne sont pas opéra- Votre porte de garage est-elle sécuritaire?

Consumers are faced with a wide range of materials when choosing new guttering. Here are a few facts to guide you in making a decision. Vinyl (PVC) guttering is inexpensive and resistant to scratching, corrosion, bad weather, and ice. It offers only average resistance to extreme variations in tem- perature. During installation, leave enough room for expansion to avoid warping, which can cause leaky joints. Most gutters are white, but there are now more colours available that are resistant to discoloration. PVC guttering is adaptable to all types of homes and has a life span of approximately ten years. Aluminum gutters are more expensive but lighter and sturdier. Highly resistant to scratches, corrosion, bad weather, ice, and discoloration, they are also vulnerable to expansion and warping. They can be made to measure without welded joints, which helps avoid leaks. In that case, installation must be done by a professional. They are available in a wide range of shapes and styles and their useful life span extends over several decades. Galvanized steel gutters are protected from corrosion. Models that are covered in baked enamel or polyester paint are stron- ger, can support heavy loads, and are less subject to warping and expansion. They can be made to measure without welded

joints but must be installed by a specialist.

Copper gutters need hardly any mainte- nance work, are non-corrosive, and are highly resistant to bad weather and abrupt changes in temperature. Their colour changes over the years to the distinctive patina of copper. With a life span of over 80 years, this type of gutter is the most expensive and should be installed by a professional.

tionnels, on peut se blesser grave- ment. Même si la porte semble ne présenter aucun problème, cela ne signifie pas qu’elle est parfaite- ment sécuritaire. Faites une inspection régulière de votre porte de garage. Assurez-vous que les mécanismes d’inversion automatique sont opérationnels. Vérifiez si votre système de levage est bien ajusté.Vous devriez pouvoir la lever avec seulement deux doigts. Tirez sur le cordon d’urgence et soulevez votre porte manuellement. Elle devrait être facile à soulever. En ouvrant manuellement votre porte de garage, vous pouvez vérifier si elle est bien balancée. Si elle est dif- ficile à ouvrir, il se peut qu’un ressort soit détendu, qu’un rail soit courbé ou qu’un câble soit relâché. Si vous décelez un problème, con- tactez un spécialiste des portes de garage. Il pourra également faire la mise au point annuelle de votre porte de garage.

There is a wide range of gutters that can blend with the colour and style of your home.

Choose the best and healthiest materials

Today’s homeowners are more concerned about their living environments than ever before. They also have more resources to create the living conditions that they desire. Using healthy construction materials is one way to improve a home’s air quality. A good example of this is the use of spruce for building walls. This type of wood grows quickly, making it an excellent sustainable resource. It also has the lowest chemical composition of all the softwoods. Drywall reinforced with fibres produces very little dust and releases a minimum of volatile chemical substances during installation.The use of low density PVC foam tape and low emission draught-proofing will ensure air tightness between sheets of plasterboard.These two products will eliminate draughts and are the most successful in keeping pollutants and humidity out of the home. They also reduce heat loss by up to 75 percent.

For maximum adaptability and accessibility, choose floor coverings made of wood or tiles. Use rugs rather than fitted carpets. Hardwood parquetry and no-wax vinyl tiles are floor coverings that have a permanent finish and require very little care. High efficiency forced air furnaces, heat pumps, and integrated combination heat and hot water systems ensure the precise and economical control of air and water temperatures in modern homes. Heat recovery ventilators help recuperate 70 percent of heat from stale air, improve the quality of room temperature air, lower heating costs, and ensure a continuous influx of fresh air into the home. Peut-être est-il temps de changer les fenêtres... Vous désirez changer vos fenêtres?Vous avez le choix entre plusieurs matériaux : le bois, l’aluminium et le PVC. Voici les avantages de chacun d’entre eux. Le bois constitue aujourd’hui un produit technique extrêmement performant. Ses aspects sont multiples et son entretien est facilité par des traitements intégrés aux procédés de fabrication. C’est un matériau traditionnellement très apprécié. Il dispose de qualités naturellement isolantes. Son authenticité lui confère une beauté sans égale. La diversité des essences lui permet de s’adapter parfaitement à tous les styles. La fenêtre en PVC est très isolante, insensible aux intempéries et sans entretien. Fabriquée en usine, elle répond parfaitement à toutes les exigences de qualité et s’adapte à tous les styles d’habita- tion. La finesse de ses profilés permet une grande surface de vitrage et une diffusion abondante de lumière. La fenêtre en aluminium présente les mêmes performances isolantes et la même facilité d’entretien quecelleenPVC.Lespossibilitésd’adaptationdeceproduitpouvantêtreconçusurmesuresontnom- breuses, sans compter les multiples dimensions standards disponibles rapidement. Ce matériau est idéal pour égayer vos fenêtres grâce aux divers coloris offerts sur lemarché, enmodemonochrome ou bicolore. Bien qu’il soit possible d’installer soi-même ses fenêtres, cela n’est peut-être pas la meilleure solution. En effet, même si le matériau d’une fenêtre et son vitrage sont capitaux pour l’isolation d’une fenê- tre, l’installation n’en reste pas moins primordiale. Une bonne fenêtre mal installée perd une grande partie de ses propriétés. Faire appel à un professionnel s’avère avantageux à plusieurs points de vue.
