Will Land Use Policy protect the Headwaters?
NDACT seeks response at AGM
BY MARNI WALSH
The North Dufferin Agricultural and Community Taskforce (NDACT), born from the
mega quarry conflict, will continue their watch
and focus on the Co-ordinated Land Use Planning Review Draft at the Annual General Meeting at Horning’s Mills Community Centre on
the evening of July 28.
“[It has been] ten years after beginning the
fight against the mega quarry,” says Karren
Wallace, a former resident of Melancthon
where the conflict began, and a key player in
the battle against the Highland Companies.
“And these lands are still not protected.”
Key legislation in the Land Use Policy is being reviewed, and that it is “the last chance to
get it right for a long time.”
“NDACT’s position remains firm in our task
for total protection for prime food producing
lands in Ontario,” says NDACT Chair Sylvia
Boxem. “The Co-ordinated Land Use Planning
Review Draft has some encouraging language
in it with regards to agricultural assessments,
as well as protection of watersheds. If watersheds obtain absolute protection, then the former quarry lands, being on top of an aquifer
that feeds five river systems, would be in a pro-

tected area and the mandate of NDACT would
be met.”
The Review Draft is now open to public comment. To thoroughly understand the draft wording and submit an appropriate response to the
government, the Taskforce has invited the Manager of the Coordinated Review process from
the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing,
Victor Doyle, to give an overview of the proposed changes to the audience at the AGM.

On August 8, 2015, twelve-year-old Natasha
Paterson succumbed to her injuries after her

our supporters on submitting comments. This is a final opportunity to voice our concerns and to speak with a consistent message on protecting our food and water for future generations,
says the Chair.
Tom Eisenhauer, President of Bonnefield Farms will answer
questions on how farmland for investment purposes supports the
protection of that land.
“Local residents will be interested to know how the Bonnefield investment model is working and what, if any, expectations
are for the long term,” says the NDACT board.

Dr. Fabio Fuliere is honored to add chiropractic care to the numerous amazing services offered at Breathe Natural Health.
As a member of the natural health team, Dr.
Fuliere shares their continuing commitment
to provide physical training such as yoga,
breathing techniques, meditation, massage,
natural supplements, teas, remedies, education, and other health care services.
Dr. Fuliere has practiced chiropractic since
1993 after graduating from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto. He
has provided family chiropractic care over
these past two decades to the communities
of Mississauga, Bolton, Nobleton and is now
blessed to offer his services to Shelburne and
the surrounding communities.
Besides having helped countless people suffering from typical biomechanical aliments
such as back pain, neck pain, headaches and
postural issues, Dr. Fuliere feels that the chiropractic adjustment also has a unique ability to communicate with the Central Nervous
System in order to “tap into the body’s inner
energy” thereby helping to restore and maintain health safely and naturally.
Dr. Fuliere’s motto is simple and profound:
“Make time for health or make time for sickness!”
From the very moment we are born (including the birth process itself), our body is subjected to trauma, gravity, physical and emotional stress, fear, anxiety, and biomechanical
pressures which constantly throw our spine
and our health out of balance.
While many people try to stay healthy by
exercising, taking supplements, eating a good
diet and getting plenty of rest, it is Dr. Fuliere’s belief that we are not achieving our
full health potential if we do not include chiropractic adjustments to our health routine.
Mayor Ken Bennington has offered an example of what the new street

ropractic history, the founding Chiropractic
forefathers used adjustments to help people
live a more functional life.
Dr. Fuliere gives credit to the body’s “INNATE” ability to recognize and accept the
chiropractic adjustment as a “positive force
of change” as the reason for this success.
Simply put, the body uses the adjustment to
initiate and promote better spinal health and
function.

Van Donation to help
family of nine
AUG 3 - 7
2016
BY MARNI WALSH
Mono refugee sponsorship group, First Line
for Syria, has gratefully accepted the donation of
a van to be given to one of Shelburne’s new Canadian families the Al Diri’s. The family includes
mother, father and seven children very much in
need of transportation.
The government-sponsored family arrived
in Shelburne earlier this year. The children, all
between five and twelve years of age, attended
Hyland Heights School during the last term of the
school year.
Wally Barr, a member of First Line for Syria,
made up of three neighbouring families on the
First Line of Mono, says their group came together with a “common mindset” last fall.
With an estimated nine million Syrians displaced since the war broke out in 2011, the group
felt they could “do more than sit and watch the
suffering of the biggest refugee crisis our world
has ever encountered.”
Together, the neighbours formed “First Line for
Syria”, a non-profit refugee sponsorship group
determined to make a difference in the life of a
Syrian family.
They officially launched their sponsorship
campaign in October of 2015 and have since
sponsored two families, one living in Shelburne

and one in Orangeville.
The arrival of the family of nine in Shelburne
has provided new friends and connections for
First Line for Syria’s sponsored family in Town,
the Hussein-Aloosh family.
That family has made amazing progress according to the group, with their 17 year old daughter Helin enjoying learning and excelling in her
studies at Centre Dufferin District High School.
The group continues to find “creative ways” for
the new Canadians to “get to know their community and be a part of it.”
Recently, Sabah, Helin’s mother, “has been participating in local craft shows where she sells her
finely detailed crocheted items.”
First Line for Syria says there is much in the
way of support that the community could offer to
the Al Diri family, especially as they do not have a
private sponsorship group to help them navigate.
The van has been safety tested, and the group
says it is ready to transfer to Mohammad Al Diri
when he gets his license.
“The family has seven children, so it will be a
great help for them,” says Wally. “In the meantime
we’ll use it to ferry people around to ESL (English
as a Second Language) classes and shopping.”

MPAC assessments coming starting July 25
BY MICHELLE JANZEN
At the July 11 Council meeting, Councillors
were presented with the 2016 Assessment Update
by Jon Hebden, Account Manager Municipal &
Stakeholder Relations, who is with the Municipal
Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC).
Residential property owners can expect to receive their Property Assessment Notices starting
July 25, while Farm Property Assessment Notices
will be mailed October 11. Multi-Residential and
Business Notices follow, being mailed October
18.
MPAC is an independent not for profit corporation funded by every municipality in Ontario who
is responsible for assessing and classifying more
than five million properties in Ontario in compliance with the Assessment Act, and regulations set
by the Government of Ontario.
To establish a property’s assessed value, MPAC
analyzes sales of comparable properties in the
area and key features that affect market value.
This approach, called Current Value Assessment,
is used by most assessments in North America.
MPAC determines current value assessments
and classifications for all of Ontario.
The Provincial Government passes legislation,
Shelburne, ON
sets assessment policies and determines education
tax rates. The Province also operates an independent assessment appeal tribunal – the Assessment
Review Board (ARB).
Based on these numbers, Municipalities determine revenue requirements, set municipal tax
rates and collect property taxes to pay for your
municipal services such as Police and Fire protection, roads, sidewalks, waste management as well
as parks and leisure facilities for 2017 to 2020.
As of June 15, 2016 the residential market
trends show that the median single family home
in Ontario being worth $386,000. In Dufferin
County that number is $405,000 with Shelburne’s
being $309,000. This is an increase in value in
Dufferin County of $63,000 and in Shelburne of
$20,000 since 2012.
Don’t agree with your Assessment? There have
been changes to filing a review (Bill 144), which
states that residential property owners have 120
days from the Issue Date of their Property Assessment Notice to file a Request for Reconsideration,
which will make the deadline November 22 for
the Town of Shelburne.
If you still have any questions on your assessment notice, MPAC can be reached at 1-866MPAC (6722) or online at www.mpac.ca.

Ottawa Journal: The Liberal
Report Card – Summer 2016
BY DAVID TILSON, M.P.
DUFFERIN-CALEDON
Taking a look back at the Spring sitting of
the House of Commons, a number of conclusions can be drawn about the Liberals’ first
months in power.
Even though we are not in a recession, the
Liberals have stampeded headlong into deficit which taxpayers will have to pay for eventually. They are cozying up to Iran and Russia. They are playing hardball with Alberta, a
province devastated by the world downturn
in oil prices. In short, this is not the warm and
fuzzy government many Canadians thought
they were electing.
Despite his many campaign promises, Justin Trudeau has not reduced taxes for Canada’s middle-class and Canadians know that
this Liberal government does not promote
policies that support Canadian families.
In fact, Justin Trudeau has betrayed Canada’s middle-class by forcing future middle-class families to pay for the Liberals’ $30
billion deficit. Measures include increasing
taxes on middle-class families that enroll
their children in sports and arts programs;
demanding a CPP tax-hike that will cost families and small businesses thousands of dollars every year; ending the hiring credit for
small businesses; keeping the small businesses tax rate at 10.5% instead of lowering it to
the promised 9%; and forcing provinces and
territories to adopt carbon emission policies
that would cost families nearly $1,000 a year.
On the world stage, by rebranding their approach to foreign policy as “responsible conviction,” Justin Trudeau and his Minister of
Global Affairs claim that Canada is back on
the international stage. In fact, the opposite
is true.
They have abandoned our principled stand
regarding Canada’s steadfast support for Israel in order to go along to get along with Iran.
By simply rebranding their “honest broker”
position, the Liberals are further isolating our
friend and ally, Israel, at a time when it needs
our friendship the most.
Iran’s state support of terrorism has been
widely acknowledged. The Iranian regime
has used terrorism as an essential component
of its foreign policy and military strategy.
Dealing with Iran is tantamount to irresponsible conviction.
Regarding China, Minister Dion failed to
reprimand Chinese Foreign Minister Wang
Yi’s conduct towards a Canadian journalist
during their joint news conference in Ottawa
recently. Minister Dion’s silence is an indictment of the Liberals new doctrine.
When given an opportunity to defend a basic principle of democracy such as freedom
of the press, the Liberals preferred to stay silent, afraid to take a stand.
It is also deeply concerning the government continues to cozy up to Russia.
Vladimir Putin has indicated that he and
Prime Minister Trudeau have discussed re-establishing “full relations.” We must stand
firm against the Russian invasion of Ukraine
and annexation of Crimea. We must protect
our Arctic sovereignty against Russian imperialism.
We must, like our US and European allies,
support the Conservatives’ Magnitsky Act,
which would hold Russia’s corrupt officials,
murders and torturers to account.
Canadians remain perplexed by the government’s refusal to vote in favour of our motion
declaring that the atrocities committed by
ISIS against minorities constitute genocide.
US Secretary of State John Kerry, former US
Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, the British
Parliament and European Union Parliament
have all been stating the obvious for months:
ISIS’ crimes are genocide.
It is unfortunate that the Liberals were so
opposed to taking on the threat of ISIS that
they were unwilling to accept reality and the
magnitude of the atrocities being committed
in the Middle East.
The Liberal decision to pull Canada’s CF18s out of the fight against ISIS and end our
combat mission exemplified the government’s naïve approach to Canada’s national
security. At a time when our allies were increasing their efforts to destroy this barbaric
terrorist organization, the Liberals pulled us
out of the fight and shamefully allowed other
nations to do the heavy lifting. Shelburne Legion News
Local Perspective is
Essential for
Trillium Foundation
BY SYLVIA JONES, MPP
DUFFERIN-CALEDON
Dufferin-Caledon is home to many active not-for-profit organizations that provide unique cultural and social services in
our community.
Many of these organizations have accessed Ontario Trillium Foundation
(OTF) funds to offer unique programs
and infrastructure.
For example: Theatre Orangeville recently received a $100,000 grant from
Trillium to modernize their lighting
system at the Orangeville Opera House.
Other local organizations like Caledon
Meals on Wheels, the Orangeville Blues
and Jazz Fest, the Caledon Cycling Club,
Caledon Community Services and the
Island Lake Community Trails Project,
have received funding from the OTF.
Needless to say, the funding from the
OTF has provided great benefit to people
in Dufferin-Caledon and across Ontario.
The OTF relies on Grant Review Teams
that are comprised of local volunteers
who provide local knowledge and insight
in order to ensure that grants meet a community’s needs. Unfortunately, the Government has allowed increasing number
of vacancies to accumulate in Dufferin
and Caledon’s Grant Review Teams.
Only thirteen of nineteen review team
positions are filled in Waterloo-Wellington-Dufferin, while seventeen of twenty
positions are filled in Halton-Peel. De-
spite these vacancies there is only one
member in the regional review teams for
the Town of Caledon.
To make matters worse, I am aware of
numerous well qualified individuals who
are willing to volunteer and fill these vacancies, but have been waiting for over a
year to hear back about their application.
This lack of action to fill the vacancies
is even more concerning given that representation will be further minimized if the
proposed changes to the number of Grant
Review Teams occur.
Currently there are 16 review teams
across the province. Under the proposed
changes, that number would be reduced
to 5. By reducing the number of regions,
there will be fewer local voices and less
local knowledge provided when approving a grant for a local community
initiative. This is precisely the opposite
of what communities like Dufferin and
Caledon need.
I have written to the CEO of the Ontario Trillium Foundation calling on her “to
stop pursuing the ‘regionally based model’ and improve the process for filling vacancies to ensure local representation is
maintained.”
If you agree, I encourage you to email
or write to the Ontario Trillium Foundation. If you have any questions or want
help contacting the OTF do not hesitate
to contact my office at sylvia.jonesco@
pc.ola.org or 1-800-265-1603.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Reader thanks police for show of respect
I’m writing this letter to the Editor on a show of respect.
My father, Carman Doney, recently passed away, and my family would like to first thank all
the people who stopped their cars while he was on his last journey. That is a show of respect,
but the thing that brought tears to our eyes was the respect from the new officer of the Shelburne
Police Department. He led us out to the cemetery, got out of his car and saluted my dad and
whole possession.
You just don’t see that for the ordinary person.

Signage chosen to look like perfect fit in Natasha’s memorial park
Councillor Walter Bennoto and CEO John
Telfer, was arranged to determine exactly
where to place the new signage.
“The location that Mr. Paterson is requesting is near the playground equipment located
on Gordon Street, which will not interrupt
with construction and I feel it is safe for us to
proceed at this time,” said Mayor Bennington
at the July 11 Council meeting.
Several quotes with mock up drawings
were submitted to council for consideration
and with quotes coming in at $4,022.80,
$7,229 and $9,638.21, it was discussed and
decided that the Town of Shelburne will split
the cost up to a total of $3,614.00, which is
half of the median quote.
After the decision, Mr. Paterson secured
the rock he and his wife have chosen to be the
sign. When speaking to Mr. Paterson, he tells
the Shelburne Free Press “We choose this
rock as we feel that it is very natural looking
and will look as if it has always been a part
of the park.”
The Town also is requesting to facilitate the
placing of the stone as well as to have approval on the final design.

Duncan Paterson, advocated for a public memorial to remember his only child so that she
will never be forgotten.
On March 7, Mr. Paterson’s efforts were
realised when Council decided to name a
portion of Hyland Park “Natasha Paterson
Memorial Park”, while also approving a pavilion located in the park, which will also be
dedicated to her memory.
Council originally thought it would be best
to wait until after construction of the pavilion
so as not to interfere and possibly face erecting the new signage twice.

There’s no better place to catch up on the local news, events, and
whats going on in your local town, than the local community
Newspaper Shelburne Free Press. Established in 1875 as the
only community newspaper in Shelburne at that time.
Competition arose when in 1883 a young entrepeneaur from
Markham came to Shelburne and created his own independent
newspaper called the “Economist”. Local Shelburnites were
up in arms as the Free Press being a totally conservative
newspaper they didn’t want this out of towner taking over with
a reformist opposing company!. So a few locals raised some
money and borrowed money, and re-opened the free press
hiring the local High School principle named Mortimer as
Publisher and editor.
The Free Press thrived and when Mortimer died in in the
1920’s his widow continued until a young man who happened
to be the publisher of the Economist by the name of T.F.E
Claridge ( and he was only ever know by his initials) bought
the Free Press and amalgamated the 2 which was known as the
Free Press & Economist until 2010. New owner Ray Stanton
bought the Newspaper and a revamping of the name dropped
the Economist and we were renamed.
The newspaper has grown and increased circulation and will
continue to do so whilst our one horse town continues to grow
and to thrive. The friendly staff at the Main street office, will
welcome you Monday to Friday 9-3pm, and not forgetting
everybody involved with putting this newspaper on the street
behind the scenes, the production department in Bolton, the
freelancers, the photographers, the editor, the new publisher
(watch this space for that!)
Remember we couldn’t do it without you the public, we rely
on you to tell us whats going on, to inform us of events, to read
our paper and keep us alive as we are today. The support from
everybody is incredible and we plan on staying around for the
next century, so watch this space people!!!!
All of us at the Free Press would like to extend our thanks for
the ongoing support and welcome you any time at our offices,
or feel free to call us if you have a letter to the editor, a story, or
even a complaint, we are there to talk to you at 519 925 2832.

Winners of Shelburne Police Bike Safety
Campaign announced at
Dufferin Mutual Insurance
Every year, Shelburne Police hosts a bicycle
safety campaign designed to help promote the
use of helmets and safe cycling.
During the month of June, Shelburne Police
watch for children riding their bikes in a safe
manner and wearing helmets.
The officers then enter these safe young cyclists into a draw for a new bike.
Every year on July 1 during the Shelburne
Canada Day Festivities, one boy’s name and
one girl’s name are drawn to win a new bike.
The bikes are sponsored every year by Dufferin Mutual Insurance Company.
This year the winner of the boy’s bike is
four-year-old Liam Ward, and the winner of
the girl’s bike is eleven-year-old Madison Ricci. Congratulations to both!
Shelburne Police thank Dufferin Mutual Insurance Company for their on-going support
for this safety campaign.
Shelburne Police remind all cyclists to wear
a helmet, and ride safely!
SHELBURNE POLICE & MTO CONDUCT
COMMERCIAL VEHICLE SAFETY BLITZ
Shelburne Police, together with MTO Enforcement Officers, conducted a commercial
vehicle safety blitz on Tuesday, July 12.
The one-day blitz resulted in 21 heavy truck
inspections being conducted.
A total of six charges were laid.
One truck had its plates seized. Four charges
were laid in relation to vehicle maintenance issues, one in regards to the driver’s condition to
operate a heavy truck, and the final charge in
regards to administrative issues.
Shelburne Police is reminding everyone to
put safety first when driving a vehicle.
Whether operating a car, a motorcycle, a
heavy truck, or any other vehicle; safety must
be the top priority. This includes always driving sober and undistracted, but also not driving
when overly tired, and always ensuring every
vehicle is properly maintained serviced yearround.
OPP URGE CAUTION AROUND
CONSTRUCTION ZONES
During the past week, the Traffic Unit of the
Nottawasaga Detachment, Ontario Provincial
Police (OPP) has been focusing on our area
construction zones.
The warm weather of summer brings with it
the need to take advantage of the opportunity
to do road repairs. Normal speed limits are reduced for the safety of the workers and fines
are increased in these areas when workers are
present.
Over the past two days, officers of the Nottawasaga Detachment Traffic Unit have laid
25 charges in one particular construction zone
alone. The strip of County Road 50 between
Athlone and 5 Sideroad is a posted 60 KM
zone, and signs state that fines are doubled
when workers are present.
On Wednesday, July 13, one motorist was
charged with doing 99 KM in the posted 60
KM zone. The fine for this offence is $578.00
with a loss of four demerit points.
Motorists are reminded to be alert when
driving through construction zones due to
workers and equipment being present. Speeding in these areas puts the lives of workers at
risk.

Senior Cubs post double loss in Sunday games
BY BRIAN LOCKHART
The Mansfield Senior Cubs had some shining
moments on Sunday afternoon, July 17, on the
diamond in Mansfield when they hosted two
games, but they didn’t come out on the plus side.
The first game of the afternoon saw the Midland Indians in town for a 2 p.m. start.
After getting into trouble in the early going,
the Cubs got the bats moving in the sixth inning
when they let loose and recorded eight runs for
the frame.
Although they had a huge inning, it wasn’t
enough to catch the visitors and they had to settle
for an 11-8 loss in that game.
The second game of the afternoon got underway against the Bolton Dodgers with a 5 p.m.
start.
The Dodgers got off to on the right foot in the
first inning with a hit to the right field fence for

a double, followed up with another nice hit that
drove in the first run of the game.
A line drive down the third base line brought
in two more runs to give the Dodgers an early
3-0 lead.
The Cubs couldn’t keep a man in base in their
first at-bat.
The Bolton squad had another good inning in
the third starting out with a ground rule double
and a huge hit to the left field fence that brought
in three more runs.
Jess Ragazzon led off the Mansfield bats in
the third inning with a single to right field. That
led the Cubs loading the bases but they couldn’t
capitalize and the side retired before they could
score.
The Mansfield defence did a good job of shutting down the Bolton team in the fourth inning,
taking out three batters and ending the inning on
a fly to fielder Brad Pendleton.
The Cubs got on the scoreboard in the fourth
inning with bases loaded and a batter getting the
walk on the fourth ball.
The game ended with a 7-2 win for the Dodgers.
The Cubs will play their final regular season
game this coming Sunday, July 24, on the diamond at Mansfield when they host the Creemore
Barons.
The first pitch is scheduled for 5 p.m.
Bantam Outlaws in good
position for playoffs
BY BRIAN LOCKHART
The Orangeville Outlaws Bantam team are
still in second place in the Ontario Minor Football League standings after a game that was recorded as a tie over the weekend.
The Bantams travelled to Beeton on Sunday,
July 17, for a scheduled game against the TNT
Express who are currently listed as being in
third place in the seven team division.
However, the game never took place.
With two full teams in attendance and a sideline filled with fans, only one thing was missing
- the referees.
The game had been rescheduled to a different
time slot earlier in the week and teams were no-
tified. The referees, on the other hand, were not
notified of the change and were expecting to be
at the field for a 3 p.m. start.
The game was cancelled rather than have
both teams and spectators wait for another two
hours in the hot sun and the result was recorded
as a tie with one point being awarded to each
team.
The Outlaws now have 13 points and a 6-1-1
record for the season.
The Clarington Knights are in first place going undefeated for the season with eight wins
behind them.
As it stands, the Outlaws should meet the
TNT Express in the semi-final with Clarington
taking on the North Bay Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs have a
5-3 record for the season.
The Toronto Jets,
Hamilton Varsity Tigercats and the Cambridge
Lions did not make the
cut for the playoffs.
In other divisions, the
Orangeville Junior Varsity squad is also doing well with a second
place in the standings
and a 6-1 record.
The Orangeville Varsity team had only one
win this season despite
playing well. They have
one more game as the
division - which only
had three teams entered
this year - goes into a
playdown situation.

Christian Perspective: Can we misinterpret the word of God?
BY PASTOR DON HUME
CROSSROADS COMMUNITY CHURCH
“Can we misinterpret the word of God?” We are human, so
the answer would be, sure we do. Our well-meaning quotes
from scripture, or should I say our part or portion of scriptures,
we tend to say in conversations each day.
For example, “God will never give you more than you can
handle.”
Most times, you are saying this part of scripture when a fellow Christian is going through tough times. The gesture was
good, but the message given was only in part. In fact, it has
not given them valuable instruction. Instead given them a
completely different meaning of the scripture in 1Corinthians
10:13.
This portion of scripture is specifically talking about temptations.
The misconception of 1Corinthians 10:13, is thinking that it
is a promise from God that He won’t have us face troubles we
can’t handle. He will allow us to go through hard times, and
face temptations that we can’t handle on our own! The true
promise to hold on to and share in this portion of scripture is
that in the midst of those trials HE will always be with us.
Now, let’s look at another misinterpreted quote we often use:
Romans 8:28 , “And we know that God causes all things to
work together for the good to those who love God, to those
who are called according to His purpose.”
Once again, this scripture must be taken in whole not in part.
In this life we all are going to face illness; we as believers
in God and those that “love God” are not exempt from these
things. We all need to remember that this world is not our
home. We are only here for a short time, and in this world we
will face hardships.
In John 16:33, scripture tells us, “You will have trouble.”
This is the truth, we cannot escape trouble. We live in a sinful
world and, as believers, we will have trouble. But again, if we
read on in this portion of scripture, “ I (Jesus) have overcome
the world.” We can never be reminded enough that we as believers are only here for a time, and that our minds should always be focused on spending our eternity with God instead of
wanting the next quick fix from all our worldly woes, we can
so easy act in the instant fix mentality.
We are always looking for encouragement and can find it
in several ways: a note from a friend, devotional, and even in
prayer. If we are all honest with ourselves the need to have encouragement in a stressful time, grief, or to just deal with life in
general, is daily. The most important thing for us to remember
is that reading or
hearing these things is not enough.
We need to claim each verse in its entirety and make it our
TEEN SCENE – The cupcakes are so good you can’t just stop at one!
own, apply it and believe it. For, if not in its entirety could, it
lead to misquoting and misinterpreting scripture.
So, let’s look at this another way: say you are having company over and are making chili. You have put in the beans,
peppers, meat, tomatoes, onions, and even some mushrooms.
Sounds good, right? But wait, these are just the minor ingredients; until we add the chili powder it never becomes chilly.
Truth!
As much like we can do with the word of God, misconstruing
a portion of scripture takes the power out of the word of God.
You could say that the authority and influence have been left
out. When we ignore the context of God’s word, we lose the
reason we go to the bible in the first place: to get God’s truth
and apply it to our lives.
Be encouraged, read each scripture verse and read it in its
full context, and by doing this you should be able to properly interpret the message and the meaning. Remembering to do
otherwise takes away from God’s word.

TEEN SUMMER
READING CHALLENGE
We are now officially into the second week of
the #splteensummerreadingchallenge and we are
seeing firsthand the energy and creativity of our
Teen members.
Last week, we had a very exciting round of
Hunger Games Monopoly where the odds were
NOT in everyone’s favour, and we also created
beautiful travel boards which highlighted the
destinations to which we have travelled, as well
as those we want to visit, but have yet to experience!
We started this week with a visit from Rosie
and Jamie of Shine Bakery, where we learned
about gluten-free vegan baking and cupcake
decorating. Have you ever heard of a flaxseed
egg? Neither had we until Rosie demonstrated
it for us! You’ll have to drop by the market and
ask her about it.
We look forward to a stiff minute-to-win-it
competition day this week and the much anticipated Escape Room challenge this Thursday,
July 21, at 6 p.m. Teams of five or less can book
their 15-minute escape room appointment at the
minute-to-win-it competition. It’s going to be a

NEW BOOKS
We are just filling up our shelves with so many
new books that we don’t have room to shelve
them all. Come in and check them…I mean that
seriously – in both ways. We have some great
reads and are featuring quite a few at Rose’s
Book Club next Thursday, July 28 @ 2:00 pm.

Dufferin Wind Power Inc.
Renewable Energy Approval
Notice of Project Change
5.16.0.1 Ontario Regulation 359/09
NOTICE OF A PROPOSED CHANGE TO AN APPROVED
RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJECT (REA No. 5460-98BPH8)
By Dufferin Wind Power
Project Name: Dufferin Wind Power Project
Project Location (municipalities): Melancthon, Shelburne and Amaranth in the County of Dufferin, Ontario
Dated at: The County of Dufferin, July 18, 2016
IESO Reference #: F-000661-WIN-130-601
EBR Registry Number: 011-7852
A Renewable Energy Approval (REA) application was made to the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change (MOECC) in August 2012 and the Dufferin Wind
Power Project was subsequently issued a REA on June 10, 2013. The REA was subsequently amended to accommodate changes to the locations of temporary building
areas, underground feeder lines, underground transmission lines and construction access to
the project location. These changes were approved through an amendment to the approval
issued on October 9, 2014.
Dufferin Wind Power Inc. is now proposing a temporary amendment to allow for the testing of
new and more efficient software control technology on two of its existing turbines, T24 and T27
(i.e. T2.09 and T4.10 respectively under the new turbine numbering system). The new software
solution has been developed to allow for higher power output without significant changes to
the original turbine noise characteristics. This is achieved primarily by increasing the gearbox
torque while maintaining the rotor tip speed. Additionally, the new technology allows the GE
turbines to run with a blade pitch schedule that optimizes the balance of noise and power. The
changes to the turbine control software system are fully automated and are an integral part of
turbine operations. As confirmed with the MOECC, this temporary amendment is classified as
a “Technical Change”. This Notice is being distributed in accordance with Section 16.0.1 of the
Regulation.
Project Description:
Pursuant to the Act and Regulation, the facility, in respect of which this project is to be engaged
in, is a wind energy project and is rated as a Class 4 Wind Facility with a name plate capacity
of 91.4 MW. The wind farm components are located entirely in the Township of Melancthon.
The transmission line for the project passes through the Township of Melancthon, the Town of
Shelburne and connects to the Provincial grid in the Township of Amaranth.
Description of Project Design Changes to the REA Application:
Dufferin Wind Power Inc. would like to temporarily amend the REA approval to allow for the
testing of new General Electric (GE) software technology at Turbines T24 (approved at 1.388
MW) and T27 (approved at 1.6 MW). This new software technology should result in higher wind
power generation for the facility while resulting in little or no increase in receptor noise levels.
The turbines will operate at slightly higher generation rates (1.41 MW and 1.7 MW, respectively)
while their noise emissions are monitored. The results of the turbine testing and noise emission
monitoring will be summarized in a report and will be submitted to the MOECC for review.
The testing of the wind turbine control software and noise emission monitoring is expected to
take up to three months to ensure that testing at various wind speeds can be completed. No
changes are proposed to the location of project components, and all components will remain in
their existing locations.
Documents for Public Inspection:
Further to this Notice, details of the proposed changes can be found in the Modifications
Document for the Dufferin Wind Power Project (dated June 2016), which is posted on the
Project website at: http://www.dufferinwindpower.ca. A hard copy can be viewed at the Project
Office located at 705357 County Road 21, Melancthon, ON L9V 2A3.
Project Contacts and Information:
Please call (519) 925-5599 or email dufferinwindpower@clypg.ca to comment on the project or
