 “Writing is something you either want to do, or you don’t want to. I have to write. It’s a passion, one that isn’t going away,” said Brian Howald, home in Morrisburg to discuss the launch of his new novel, Inside Looking Out.

Howald, a graduate of Morrisburg Public School, and, in 1982, Seaway District High School in Iroquois, talked about his writing career on October 31. 

He originally studied broadcasting at Loyalist College, then lived for a time in Toronto, working for a casting/modeling agency and taking part in the Toronto music scene. 

A move to Kingston in the late 80s led to work with Theatre 5, and some writing of music and film reviews for a small independent newspaper. He also took a full time writing course at St. Lawrence College, an option he found very valuable. 

Eventually, however, Howald was drawn to writing full time.  In 1993 he formed a company called Bookworm Literary Productions. For him, it was the best of both worlds; publishing books, with  ample time to work on his own writing.

His first book, The Chopper of Lucy Electra, appeared in 1996. 

It was “ a murder mystery which was set in both the Seaway of the 1950s, and partially in modern times.”  

Other articles and books followed since Howald does not restrict his writing to one particular genre. What ever strikes him as interesting, with potential as story material, that is what he will write about.

His 2011 novel, Inside Looking Out, is being launched at Bookworm in Kingston on November 11. Inside Looking Out, is set in the very early years of  World War II.

“I began exploring a lot of historical accounts of World War II, researching military engagements and doing a great deal of reading,” Howald said. “My story and characters grew out of this.”

Inside Looking Out follows two young men, one a civilian pilot contracted to the R.A.F.,  the other a soldier who did not make it out during the hurried evacuation  of stranded British troops from the beaches of Dunkirk in early June of 1940. 

The two men ultimately meet in a German prisoner-of-war camp, eventually taking part in a daring and desperate escape across occupied Europe to Denmark, and then Sweden.

“The characters of Pete and Terry came out of my research. They are as real as I could make them. For young men in their 20s war is a kind of ultimate adventure,”  the author said.

Howald stresses that his German characters are not “stick figures. This is a time when the Germans are at their most triumphant. They expect to win the war. I would call this story a dramatic thriller in the old style meaning of the term.” 

He did not deliberately set out to release the novel on Remembrance Day, but it is perhaps fitting that it will be available starting November 11.

Brian Howald is an old fashioned writer in one way. 

“When I write, I use traditional, spiral notebooks and I write long hand,” he laughed. “I do not like the “box”, my word for the word processor. I have people who are much better at processing my work than I am.”

His preferred writing venue is also a little unusual.

“I am far more comfortable writing in restaurants and coffee shops,” he said. “I actually prefer the noise and music that forms  the background in these places. I think I got used to that kind of ambiance when I was writing in Toronto.”

Howald is currently at work  polishing a new novel called The Spot Marked X, also tied into events of World War II, which should be coming out in 2012.

In the meantime, he continues to devote himself to a challenging but ultimately rewarding career. 

“Writing is not an easy choice in life. There are years spent writing a book, not to mention the endless editing and rewrites. But if this is what you love, you have to write,” he said.

Howald’s original novel Inside Looking Out should soon be available at the Seaway Pharmacy and the Basket Case, Morrisburg. Contact Brian Howald at brianhowald@rocketmail.com.

They offered a helping hand, and Morrisburg Legion Branch 48 president Maurice Praine was willing to accept it. 

Saturday, four members of the Canadian Army Veterans Motorcycle Unit (The C.A.V.), were out and about in Morrisburg to assist the local Legion Branch by selling poppies. They were easily identified as they were wearing their black vests which, according to their website, are worn “in mourning of those who have fallen in securing our Peace.”

CAV Motorcycle Units were started in 2003, and are active in Charity Event Riding and Community Support Events across Canada.

They support charity events locally, provincially, nationally and internationally.

Saturday, four members of the nine member local CAV Unit, Sicily, were in Morrisburg. They included Jeff Betts, John Kennedy, Bill Aitken and Reg Anderson all of whom have served in the Canadian Military.

The Unit was formed this past summer and according to Betts, is based out of Morrisburg, because it is central to the members. Betts is from Winchester and other members are from Morrisburg, Cardinal and Cornwall.

“We are teamed with the Morrisburg Legion only in the sense of developing a mutually beneficial relationship,” explained Betts. “We have the same goals of helping our veterans and our community.”

The CAV is a national brotherhood of Canadian Army, Air Force and Navy Veterans who are motorcycle enthusiasts. 

There are three regions: 1st CAV which covers central Canada (Manitoba to Quebec), 2nd CAV in Eastern Canada and 3rd Cav in  Western and Northern Canada.  Members gather in units named in tribute of Canadian Battle Honours. 

The local unit is in 1st CAV and is named for the 1943 Battle of Sicily when the Allies launched one of the largest combined operations of WWII for control of Sicily.

“Our mission statement is to ‘ride and have fun, while helping others’,” said Betts whose nickname is Lurch and who was an Administrative Clerk in the military for 14 years.

CAV does have several charities of choice, such as “Ride for Dad”, an annual ride for prostrate cancer and ICROSS, International Community for the Relief of Starvation and Suffering of the world’s poor. It also supports a number of military organizations including Soldier On and the MFRC (Military Family Resource Centre).

At the local level they support community events and the local Legions, or they may run their own event in support of a cause they choose.

Betts also explained that members don’t have to own motorcycles. Those who don’t can come out and assist in fundraising events, travelling to the event as they choose.

The CAVs ‘Honorary Rider in Chief to Veterans’ is Rick Hillier, past Chief of Defense Staff for Canada’s military.

In addition to the charity assistance, Betts says the group gathers to “have fun and reminisce about our military experiences.”

Saturday, John Kennedy, nicknamed Saddle Tramp, was doing just that as he pointed to the picture hanging in the Morrisburg Legion lounge of the HMCS Haida, the last remaining example of the 27 Tribal Class destroyers built between 1937 and 1945.

“I served in peace time, (1959-63), and I was the last to sail overseas on the Haida. They took it out of service in 1960.”

Kennedy says he has logged over 200,000 km on his 1996 bike, and he has enjoyed all of his experiences. He recalls travelling with a group out of Ottawa to participate in a parade in Washington. “I’ve been all over. I really enjoy it.”

“We are always looking for new members,” said Betts.

 At what age should children begin learning and, more significantly, participating in social justice issues? 

SD&G seem to be taking this issue very seriously with groups participating in events like Light Up Your World (LUYW), “We Day,” and “Step Up to Leadership.”

“Light Up Your World”

Lisa Sanchez and Miguel Sanchez, creators of LUYW, visited the area on October 29th at the Morrisburg Pentecostal Tabernacle. They have also visited Morrisburg Public School and Seaway Intermediate and District High School in the past year.

At Saturday’s session, the pair began explaining that while this program was originally designed for grade 7 and 8 students, “the message is good for everyone, kindergarten and up.”

The LUYW seminar has three sessions, each between one to two hours in length. The message for each session is delivered through stories, short film clips, lots of games, demonstrations, discussion and fun.

The first session introduces the concept of lightness versus darkness with lightness being the spread of positivity and darkness being the spread of negativity. The Sanchez’s demonstrate that every choice made, big or small, has a consequence. The choice will determine whether the consequence is positive or negative.

The second session devotes itself to helping participants realize and accept their own value, as well as the value of others. The Sanchez’s assured the children that “you can’t do anything to lose your value” because it is intrinsic.

They pointed out that while other people, situations, or events can “affect our sense of value, they can never affect our true value.”

The final session brought everything together, showing children how to become a “world changer.”

“Each of us is just one person, but we can have a big effect,” they said.

“You have the power to make a choice, therefore you have the power to bring change.” 

The Durham region couple first designed LUYW in response to the need  in their local school. Lisa told the Leader that the venture was successful; they had impacted “kids lives in a positive way.”

News of the seminar’s effectiveness spread and, in a short time, the Sanchez’s reach had stretched outward to their school district and, eventually, to the world.

LUYW is not the Sanchez’s first contact with social justice work. It has been a way of life for the couple for years. They’ve also instilled their values and sense of justice in their own children, who have also made “spreading light” a part of their lives.

Lisa told the Leader, “change the heart, and your behaviour will follow.” As she explained to the group, every thought creates a ripple effect by informing our actions, which eventually become habits and then, in time, become our character.

Schools or groups interested in bringing the program to children in their care can either have a LUYW representative come in to conduct a seminar or they can take training sessions to learn how to do so themselves. Their website is www.lightupyourworld.org.

“We Day”

The Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSB) is also getting children involved in social justice.  

Holy Trinity Catholic Secondary School in  Cornwall has a “Trinity Justice League” led by Gordie  Van Putten, Chaplaincy Leader.

Van Putten told the Leader that they are a mixed group of both boys and girls from grades seven to twelve and they meet every Wednesday at lunchtime.

This year they had an exciting “kick-off” to their social justice year with a trip to “We Day” in Toronto in September. This was the group’s first year attending the event.

Van Putten said there were approximately 20,000 students in the Air Canada Centre. Holy Trinity received 15 free tickets to attend.

According to their website, “at We Day, youth from across North America join together to celebrate the positive actions they are taking and to build the momentum of the movement of young people making a difference in their communities and around the world. Through We Day, youth learn that it is cool to care.”

We Day began in 2007. It is an initiative of Free the Children.

“Free the Children was founded on the understanding that by awakening the spirit of activism in young people, anything is possible – injustices can be stopped, our local and global communities can be transformed for the better, and hope for the future can be sustained.”

The website, www.weday.com, provides a wealth of information for teachers, students and parents. In order to apply to participate in the event, school’s must take part in a major project of their own.

On November 1st the Trinity Justice League gave an “all school presentation” about their current project of bringing clean water to Haiti. 

The first fundraiser for the cause will be St. Albert’s Cheese sales. In this way, other students, not currently members of the League, will have an opportunity to help out and make a difference. As Van Putten pointed out, it’s the “power of we: we can’t do things alone.”

He also reported that the group has grown in number since he first started at the school four years ago. He said that other students see what the members of the League are doing and they think, “Oh, wow, look what they’re doing!”

“Step Up to Leadership”

Step Up to Leadership (SUL) was created by the Rural Ontario Institute, 4-H Ontario and the Foundation for Rural Living.

The weekend long program “inspires next-generation leaders (between the ages of 16 and 25) to encourage positive community growth through their involvement and their leadership.” 

McIntosh Country Inn and Conference Centre in Morrisburg will be home for the SD&G event from November 4 to 6, 2011.

Alicia Evans, Project Manager for Leadership Programs told the Leader on October 26th: “We have a few people signed up so far and there seems to be quite a bit of interest. But there is still lots of room.” www.stepstoleadership.ca.

The count-down to Christmas has already begun! Chilly temperatures, stores displaying Christmas decorations, and some people even boasting that they have finished their Christmas Shopping!  

Sadly, some members of our community aren’t quite so fortunate. 

Time and time again, we in South Dundas have shown that we are a caring community. 

Through the combined efforts of local churches, church groups, community organizations, service clubs, businesses, schools and countless caring individuals, we have been able to help those in need, particularly during the Christmas Season. 

For the 23rd  consecutive year, the South Dundas Christmas Exchange is busy making plans to hopefully bring a bit of joy to those in need, and to make their Christmas a happier one. 

The mandate of the Christmas Exchange is, “to ensure that families in need are provided with the makings of a nice Christmas Dinner with some of the traditional trimmings”.

Again this year the Exchange will work closely with the South Dundas Food Bank to more  efficiently get Christmas Baskets to all those in need.

All of the Christmas Baskets will be supplied by the Christmas Exchange.  But because of the large number, it is impossible to do all of them at the Legion Hall. 

The co-operation of the local Food Bank in distributing those for singles has made this a more manageable task. Singles are reminded that they must register through the Food Bank.  Only family registrations will be accepted through the Hot Line 

The Hot Line will be in operation from 1 to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday, from November 14th to 25th.   As this is a private line, donated by one of our local Churches, those registering are asked to please not call this number other than the times and days specified. The Hot Line number is 613-543-2005. 

For singles wishing to register with the Food Bank, the number there is 613-543-0065.

Although the Christmas Exchange will be providing a well stocked Christmas Dinner Basket, some families will require additional assistance. These families can contact the Food Bank to discuss their special needs with the co-ordinator.

Receiving a Christmas Basket will not disqualify any Food Bank client from receiving their regular assistance, but will simply try to make Christmas a bit special for them and their family. 

The Morrisburg Lions Club is again sponsoring Angel Trees, which will be located at the Bank of Nova Scotia and the Bank of Montreal in Morrisburg, and at SDS Kerr/Beaver Dental. 

In Iroquois, Sandra Johnston will co-ordinate the Angel Tree at the Bank of Montreal.  Watch for the Angel Trees later in November.  Remember to return all gifts by the date specified. 

The gifts and toys collected will be distributed through the Christmas Exchange, along with the Christmas Dinner Baskets, at the Morrisburg Legion on December 22nd, 2012, between 10 a.m. and noon. 

Those who wish to make financial donations, for which Tax Receipts will be issued,  may send cheques to: The South Dundas Christmas Exchange, P.O. Box 450, Morrisburg, ON.     K0C 1X0

Have you driven by the forested areas along County Road 2 between Morrisburg and Riverside Heights wondering who owned the land and if it might be okay to take a hike there?

Well, as it turns out, the land in question is the DuPont Provincial Park and, yes, it is okay to hike there.

“Planning for this park has been going on for years but the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) regulated it as a provincial park in June 2011,” reported Jolanta Kowalski, Senior Media Relations Officer for the MNR.

According to the Ontario Parks website, the 614 hectares of land “was acquired by the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) from DuPont Canada, through a combination of purchases and donations in 1997 and 1998, in order to establish the site as a nature reserve.”

Kowalski explained that the “NCC owns the land and it is managed in partnership with Ontario Parks.”

Ontario Parks revealed that “nature reserve parks are established to represent and protect the distinctive natural habitats and landforms of the province. These areas are protected for educational and research purposes.”

“Due to the fragility of many of these natural features, only a few nature reserves are accessible to the public.”

The MNR reported that DuPont Park has 1,500 meters of frontage on the St. Lawrence River and it is “home to mature hardwood forest, a coastal wetland and one of the largest heron nesting areas in Eastern Ontario.”

Kowalski told the Leader “this is a non-operating park and there are no designated access points or entrance areas. There are no designated trails.”

Ontario Parks explained: “a non-operating park has no fees or staff on site and only limited facilities.”

DuPont Park “is open to people who want to walk around but it’s not ‘maintained’ (no washrooms, trail grooming, camping, and so on) like some other parks,” said Kowalski.

For those readers who have dogs and love to hike off-trail, she confirmed that “dogs are permitted in all of our Ontario Parks as long as they are kept on a leash no longer than two meters and owners must clean up after them.”

On October 29th, SD&G OPP officers had occasion to conduct a traffic stop on Highway 401, South Dundas Township.

The stop resulted in the seizure of approximately two kilograms of suspected marihuana.

The 26 year old male driver, Carl Laurent of Windsor, was arrested and faces a charge of Possession for the Purpose Schedule II.

He is scheduled to appear in Morrisburg court on December 6th.

The street value of the seized drugs is approximately $12,000.

Local Member of Parliament Guy Lauzon announced this week that his office will be offering the popular “Support our Troops” signs at his office again this year.

“This project has been an excellent way for the residents of SD&SG to show their pride and admiration for the work of our military personnel around the world,” said MP Lauzon. 

“While our combat missions in Afghanistan and Libya have come to an end, it is always still important to show that we’re behind our soldiers and their families.”

The red and white ‘Support our Troops’ signs are available at Lauzon’s offices in the riding for the month of November (while quantities last). Signs may be picked up at the main Constituency Office at 621 Pitt Street in Cornwall or the satellite offices in Winchester (North Dundas Township Office) and Morrisburg (South Dundas Chamber of Commerce Office in the Plaza).

An October 25th news release from Ontario PC Leader Tim Hudak’s office revealed that SD&SG MPP Jim McDonell has been appointed the PC’s new consumer services critic.

The consumer services critic is, reportedly, “a valuable role on an Ontario PC team that is focused on bringing forward new ideas on job creation and getting the government’s spending under control.”

It was also suggested that  the people of SD&SG trust McDonell “to change the direction Ontario is headed in. Jim McDonell said he was humbled by the appointment, and eager to get to work to deliver the change families have asked for.”

McDonell stated: “This appointment will allow me to address the issues that matter most to the residents of Stormont, Dundas and South Glengarry, as well as those of the Province of Ontario.”

Building houses, severing land parcels, creating subdivisions, protecting agricultural lands… these are some of the issues  behind the development of the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry’s Comprehensive Settlement Area Boundary Study.

South Dundas council met at a special meeting on October 25th to review and discuss the proposed changes for the areas within South Dundas Township.

The meeting was led by South Dundas Manager for Planning and Enforcement, Don Lewis. Also in attendance to answer questions and note changes were County Planner and Department Head for the Planning Department, Michael Otis, and the GIS/Planning Technician, Jack Sullivan.

In the mayor’s absence, Deputy-Mayor Jim Locke opened the meeting explaining that “because it was apparent that we were looking at some changes,” it was decided that council should meet for a “special meeting” to discuss changes to the study “before (it) comes to (County) council for approval.”

Otis confirmed that the meeting was a “working session (so that) everyone understands what’s being proposed.” He added, “we certainly welcome your input.”

He went on to report that the idea is “to take forward the report to county  council November 21st and get some kind of approval, but before we do so we’d like to hear from each of the townships.”

“Subsequent to hearing from people from the open houses, we’ve made some changes,” informed Otis.

He outlined the reasons behind the study’s development with the most notable being: “provincial policy states (that) if you want to expand a settlement area, you have to have a comprehensive study.”

Further to that point, “a number of development proposals have surfaced which are constrained by current boundaries.”

“Some of these development proposals involve contiguous land holdings located partly within and partly outside of the settlement areas.”

“The Provincial Policy Statement and the County Official Plan strongly encourage the majority of future development to occur in the settlement areas as opposed to the rural areas of the county and as such, it is important to analyze the capacity of the settlement areas to assume this role.”

“The study reports will provide guidance to prospective developers and will provide a tool for economic development as well as land use planning.”

Lewis presented council with the recommended changes to each area with the help of maps. In most cases there were simple changes to boundaries, which acknowledged and delineated exactly where the existing boundaries are located.

The maps also showed where available land for development existed within the settlement boundaries.

The areas discussed at council included Iroquois, Stampville, Morrisburg, Mariatown, Williamsburg, Ault Island, Dunbar, Hulbert, Hainesville, Glen Becker, Glen Stewart, Irena, Brinston, Dundela, Riverside Heights, Dixon’s Corners, Winchester Springs, and Elma.

Otis told council “this study will be updated every five years. The idea is to be proactive. If someone came along and said I have a development in mind, you can’t do it without this study first.”

The following discussions were “informal” and nothing has been approved by County yet.

Iroquois

This discussion revolved mostly around whether or not to include the land that meets up with the West portion of Iroquois in the urban settlement boundary. 

It was pointed out that in a rural settlement area the home/land owner is responsible for their own water and sewer whereas in an urban settlement area the municipality is responsible.

The area southeast of Iroquois was also under consideration for potential settlement zoning. 

The area north of Iroquois, however, may be rezoned, losing its urban settlement status.

Stampville

Existing settlement to the north was acknowledged on the map’s boundaries. 

The land in the south section of Stampville, which faces Highway 401 was discussed in terms of whether it should be zoned as rural or urban settlement. It was revealed that “including it as rural settlement (is) a lot more flexible than urban in what is permitted.”

The biggest point of discussion for Stampville revolved around “West Side versus East Side.” In one area, residents on the east side of the road are zoned for settlement and are permitted severances. On the west side, however, the current zoning is agricultural meaning no severances are permitted. 

Lewis wanted council to include a portion of the land on the west side in the settlement zoning.

As Otis pointed out to council, “what you do on one side of the road you should do on the other, if it’s a similar situation.” 

Mariatown

According to Otis, Mariatown was “never recognized as a settlement area.”

He explained, “what we’re doing is taking the boundary and expanding to County Road 2 and over to Morrisburg’s west boundary and east to Coyle.”

“At this point it’d be a rural settlement,” said Lewis. He suggested that it might be possible to include a clause that allowed for a change if the opportunity for development arose.

Councillor Archie Mellan wanted to know how the designation of rural settlement would affect farmer’s taxes. In response, he was told that taxes are “based on use rather than zoning.”

Williamsburg

There were two large areas, one south of Hess Street and one to the northwest, where it was suggested that the land be zoned urban settlement. 

The discussion centered around the possibilities for additional subdivisions. 

Otis told council “the idea is to provide large areas where this can occur. (They) should be provided with this opportunity.”

Glen Becker

Mellan inquired as to why the settlement boundary wasn’t extended to include the truck stop land near Highway 401. 

Otis implied that there may be plans for that area and said, “we’re going to take a closer look at that on our five year review.”

Elma

Most members of council seemed to have a different opinion of where Elma was actually located. Some thought it was around the former school, while others thought it was west of the school at the four corners.

The proposal would connect these two areas along with the land in between. In addition, the land just east of the old school was included in the settlement area due to the several existing houses.

The major concern, however, seemed to revolve around the “land in between,” which is currently designated agricultural, If the land were to be included in the rural settlement area of Elma, it would allow for severances.

To clarify, the study was done to “protect prime agricultural land” from being severed and sold in disjointed parcels as settlement areas, which leads to the fragmentation of farmland. 

The summary report states: “It is a long standing and widely accepted planning principle that the majority of future development in a municipality should be encouraged to take place in the settlement areas as opposed to the countryside in order to protect rural resources such as prime agricultural land/areas and mineral aggregates and natural heritage systems, to promote economic development and maximize existing investment in public infrastructure expenditures.”

This discussion will resume at the November 1st meeting when council is presented with a list of pros and cons.

All Other Areas 

The remaining areas had either minor changes or no changes at all. Most changes simply reflected the actual current boundaries.

In Irena, the South Nation Conservation area was removed from the settlement boundary because, as Lewis pointed out, “that’s probably never going to be sold.”

Likewise, the Henderson farmland was removed from the settlement boundary in Dundela.

In Brinston there was a parcel of land, with two separate residences, being brought back into the settlement boundary to allow for a severance of the lot.

Due to concerns with the proposed settlement boundary for Dixon’s Corners, this will also be re-examined.

On November 1st, South Dundas council had one last opportunity to review and make changes to the study before the November 8th deadline.

Time to step out in style with a little help from Sears and River Rat Treasures. 

On Sunday, November 6,  beginning at 1 p.m., Seaway District High School parents council is joining Sears, Iroquois, in putting together a bold, bright show of the latest Sears fashions as part of a school fund raiser. 

“Every year, Sears and River Rat Treasures stages a fashion fund raiser,” said Candace Menges, co-owner of Sears and River Rat Treasures in Iroquois, “and chooses a local charity or organization as the recipient. This year we were approached by the Seaway District High School parents’ council. Chair Leslie Disheau explained the school is raising funds for classroom equipment and learning materials, such as SmartBoards,  We were glad to help: Seaway will be this year’s recipient of proceeds from our annual fashion show.”

Also lending their support in the community will be Scotia Bank, Morrisburg, which has agreed to match any funds raised by the fashion show. 

With the backing of corporate Sears, Menges has arranged for over 16 volunteer models, ages seven to 70, to walk the runway at the afternoon show. 

“Our models are a wide variety of ages, shapes and sizes,” she said, “because Sears offers a wide variety of stylish clothing in all shapes and sizes. Among the models for the show will be Seaway principal Terry Gardiner and guidance head, Mark Lewis.”

With a Mardi Gras theme, and all the colour and fun of Carnival, this fashion show is sure to thrill guests. 

Local vendors will have displays around the Seaway gymnasium, (where the fashion show will take place). They will be offering some great deals, discounts and specials to visitors. Look for outstanding door prizes and enjoy some delicious refreshments served by the parents council. 

As an additional bonus, the first 100 ticket holders who arrive at the show will receive a very special gift. 

With the Christmas party season nearing, and, for some lucky travellers, upcoming cruises, this timely fashion event will show off great clothing ideas from Sears.

“We’ll be showing every day wear, evening, party and cruise wear for both men and women,” Menges said. “There will be some wonderful fashions for guests to enjoy.”

Tickets for the Carnival of Fashion are $10 for adults, $5 for youth and children under four, free. 

Advance tickets can be purchased at Sears Iroquois and Morrisburg and from the Seaway parents council.

Don’t miss the Carnival of Fashion Fund Raiser on November 6 at Seaway High School.
