It’ll be built on the site of the former band office and recreation centre. (Staff photo by Diane Johnston) Diane Johnston Speaker Reporter BEAR ISLAND – Construction is now beginning on a new $5.7-million complex that will serve Bear Island residents and visitors alike. Ground was officially broken on the weekend for the Temagami First Nation (TFN) multi-use facility and business centre. The project will have immediate and long-term economic impacts, TFN Chief Arnold Paul told an audience of about 30 July 9. It will “really promote the best interests of the Temagami First Nation,” said David Zimmer, who heads the recently renamed Ontario Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation. The T-shaped, 29,000-square-foot complex brings under one roof the TFN’s council chambers and administration as well as office space for business use and economic development. It will offer an interpretive centre, arts centre, library and resource centre. It extends to a gym, including an indoor running track, that will double as a conference centre and banquet room for up to 200 people. A kitchen, change rooms, stage and laundromat are incorporated. HISTORY The project has been in the works about three and a half years, said project manager Tom Laronde, a TFN member who now heads the Four Winds Group of Companies. “It took a little while to get the money in place. It’s not a hold-up, it’s a process,” he told the audience that gathered under a tent behind the Laura McKenzie Learning Centre. FedNor and the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund each provided $1 million. Minister Zimmer announced that Ontario would contribute an additional $750,000 from the Aboriginal Community Capital Grants Program. The balance will come from TFN. Mr. Laronde said construction of the building itself is expected to take up to 14 months, and he was hopeful it would come in under budget. The complex’s architect is Bret Cardinal of Ottawa. In describing the project, he noted that the TFN council chambers would be at the centre of the complex and surrounded by a circular route of artefact displays. “It really sets the tone for the whole building,” he said. Materials from the band office, which was demolished to make way for the new complex, will be incorporated into the interpretive centre. See “Construction” on 9a Steam show recreates pioneer past EARLTON (Staff ) – The past comes to chugging, sputtering, steaming life this weekend outside Earlton. The forty-second annual edition of the Rod Inglis Memorial Earlton Steam and Antique Show runs July 16 and 17. It fields acres of antique machinery, powered by steam or gas, that were used on the farms and fields of the Little Claybelt. Some equipment is more than a century old. But some of the vehicles that will be on display are a little newer – owners of classic cars are also invited to drop in. The show was launched to preserve the area’s pioneer heritage from antique hunters searching for artefacts to take south. There will also be food, music, and household antiques and crafts to peruse on the site, which is located on Andre Boileau’s property south of Brownlee Equipment. Gates open at 9 a.m. each day, and close at 4 p.m. Camping is available at the site. 2011 Can-Am 800 We’ll get you safely to all your summer destinations! 100 Craven Crescent, New Liskeard, ON Phone 705•647•5500 Fax 705•647•4100 www.fountaintire.com with Assante Capital Management Ltd. power steering $7499.99 2011 Can-Am 800 with power steering $7499.99 HOURS: Monday to Friday 8:30 to 5:30 • Saturday 9 to 3 60 Scott St., Box 1648, New Liskeard, ON P0J 1P0 705-647-8533 • FAX: 705-647-8534 Robert A.

The incident occurred north of Temagami in September 2014, and was heard June 23 by Justice of the Peace Eileen Walker in Haileybury. The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry reports that an investigation began after staff located bear baits and off-road vehicle tracks behind a locked gate on the Red Squirrel access road. The ministry said they found that two men from Dutton and Wallacetown had used ramps to get their off-road vehicle over the gate and into an area where motorized access is prohibited. They accessed the former’s remote hunt camp and placed bear baits in the area. The Wallacetown man subsequently harvested a bear. He was fined $1,000 for trespassing for the purpose of hunting and $200 for failing to submit a mandatory 2014 black bear hunt questionnaire. The Dutton man was fined $1,000 for trespassing for the purpose of hunting and $200 for possession two slot-sized walleye discovered at one of the bait sites. A third man, from Rodney, was fined $1,000 for possessing an illegally killed black bear and $200 for making a false statement in his mandatory hunt questionnaire. WEEKENDER Friday, July 15, 2016 Page 3a BEARING WITNESS As if on cue, a bear was recently spotted as it slowly made its way across the entrance to the landfill on the Lake Temagami Access Road. Bears are frequently seen in the area – as evidenced by the sign. (Staff photo by Diane Johnston) All three were also banned from hunting for one year in Wildlife Management Unit 40, where the offences occurred. INCIDENT In an unrelated incident, three men from the New Liskeard area and a fourth from Ottawa were fined a total of $3,000 in connection with an illegal moose hunt. The offence dates back to October 2012, when the ministry says conservation officers checked the hunting party at their hunt camp in the Kenabeek area. The ministry said the group had three cow moose validation tags but no licence for a bull moose. When a bull moose was found, the ministry said the men reported it had been shot by a member of their party who was exercising his aboriginal right to hunt. The ministry said its investigation found that the moose had been shot by one of the four men.

Hold the love ” I didn’t fall down in love, I rose in it. ” At the family cottage Sue Nielsen Toni Morrison They say a child’s coffin is the heaviest. I can well imagine the meaning behind that statement. My mother lost six children after I was born. She lost two daughters that each lived for a week or two before passing away. I recall her speaking about this to us as children and I know it weighed heavy on her, the loss of her children. She would tell us that our sisters were buried in the Silverland Cemetery while tears formed in her eyes. The loss of a child is a wound that never fully heals and the cliché ‘time heals’ is far from the truth. I like the quote, ”Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.” I was on reporting duty last week and it was my job to cover the One Foot Forward series of events held to honour the memory of toddler Greyson Zubyck. But on another level, I was on duty as a mother, as a community member and someone who values life, love and compassion. I can only imagine the range of emotions that John and Shelly Zubyck must have been feeling in their hearts as the day played out. I don’t recall ever hearing such a raw, heart-rending message like the one Shelly delivered during the dinner/silent auction. The Zubycks are moving one foot forward at a time as Shelly said but they will proudly carry their son with them every step of the way. I don’t believe everything hap- pens for a reason either. Sometimes the most horrible things happen to the most amazing, incredible people. There are no guarantees in this life, things happen out of the blue. Your loved one can be with you one minute and gone the next. That is the reality of life on this earth. When my mother died I felt something had been taken away from me and I recall driving past the cemetery on my way to work thinking she doesn’t belong in that place, she belongs at home with her children, her friends and family. I wanted to run to that place and bring her home. The mind wants to believe what it will. When someone loses a loved one it is a chance to open your heart as wide as possible and walk beside that person until they are able to breathe, think and function again. Maybe a young couple sees their child in every good deed and compassionate action shown to them? I spoke with my friend Charlie Fortin during the dinner and he said he had lost his 16-year-old daughter Lise in a car accident. He understood what the Zubycks were going through. Thank you Charlie for that special moment. As we float along this river of life each loss is different, a sibling, a spouse, a child, a pet or friend, there’s one constant— you hold the love close, oh so close. Editorial Daily need Summer’s here and the living is easy. Except for a growing number of people who access food banks in our region and beyond. While most of us enjoy a shopping trip to the grocery store to purchase a juicy steak, salads, drinks and the like, there are those among us who can only dream of that luxury. The need for food never stops, hunger is a daily issue faced by people in this region (children, adults and seniors) and the food banks that serve them. While the cost of living rises, the poor among us are left to manage at the doors of a food bank. The government of Ontario has said it has created a poverty reduction strategy but we can only wonder what areas it seems to address. The poverty reduction strategy aims to increase the minimum wage, create jobs and employment, provide school nutrition programs and add extra programs for families along with more affordable housing options. While the heads of large government corporations make millions in salaries and bonuses, the poor of this province and, in particular, Northern Ontario wait for the rubber to meet the road in terms of poverty reduction. Anyone who pays a hydro bill, puts gas in their car or pays rent will know how much disposable income they have left over at the end of the month for food. Food bank volunteers see up close and personal the devastation poverty can have on people and they are the kind-hearted souls who step forward to manage the need for food in South Temiskaming. Generally speaking, we talk about food banks and the issue of hunger around the time our two community food bank drives take place - just prior to Easter weekend and then in the fall. But people go hungry every day in this region and food banks are not fair weather operations that shut their doors just because summer comes along. Please be generous and donate to your local food bank and thank you! 18 Wellington St., South New Liskeard 705-647-6791 Fax 705-647-9669 Lois Perry General Manager ext. 224 Alan Roy Assistant Sales Manager ext. 225 Brenda Craik Denise Williams ext. 232 ext. 231 Sales Rep. a ds @ no r t hern o n t a ri o . ca Sales Rep.

Editor Reporter editorial@northernontario.ca Reporter Reporter Reporter Marsh flying high with programming help Friday, July 15, 2016 Diane Johnston Speaker Reporter HILLIARDTON – New technology and new help on the ground will improve educational programs and bird data collection at the Hilliardton marsh. Thanks to donors, the Hilliardton Marsh Research and Education Centre has the assistance of an intern for six months. Intern Sidney Coll, who took in the spring programs at the marsh, will review programming over the summer, explained Dalas Forget, the marsh’s executive director. She’ll work on expanding and improving the marsh’s educational programs, for both school groups and the public, related to wetlands and the birds that depend on them. A $12,000 grant from Colleges and Institutes Canada (CIC) is helping to fund her position. CIC is a national organization representing publicly funded colleges, institutes, college-type schools in Quebec, and polytechnical schools. The marsh was also awarded a $2,500 community action grant from the RBC Blue Water Project to help fund the intern’s position. The corporate program supports water protection programs in Canada as well as the U.S., Australia, United Kingdom, Luxembourg and Malaysia. The money for the Hilliardton marsh was raised in part at an annual barbecue sponsored by the New Liskeard RBC branch, said branch manager Jeff Laferriere. Part of Ms. Coll’s work on the marsh’s educational programming, meanwhile, will incorporate the latest addition to the site. The marsh has installed a 68-foot Motus telemetry tower at a temporary location a short walk from its education and bird banding centre. TOWER The tower, which resembles an old-style television antenna, is actually part of a hemispheric tracking system for migratory birds. High-flying birds can now be identified even if they don’t drop by the marsh. The tower is equipped with receivers that can detect tracking devices on even the tiniest of birds, at a distance of some 20 kilometres. The tower at the Hilliardton marsh is the only one located between James Bay and Georgian Bay. While birds migrate from the Hudson Bay region to southern Ontario, Mr. Forget said their specific routes haven’t been mapped. When the tower goes live in time for the fall migration, he said the marsh will collect “some new information that’s never been known.” WEEKENDER Page 5a Ray's Berry Farm Ray Raspberries Fresh or frozen Sold by the 6 quart Pick for us or buy from us Reserve now 705-672-5597 In Memoriam July 13th 2010 In loving memory of Rhodes Grenville Boothby He is gone but not forgotten and as dawns another day.

(Staff photo by Diane Johnston) TEMISKAMING SHORES (Staff) – A full house turned out for seniors’ information at Spring Fling number six. The annual event at Riverside Place in New Liskeard drew 200 seniors and presenters June 15. They heard from experts on power of attorney and occupational therapy, took in exercise classes, and learned about Temiskaming Shores’ age friendly planning exercise. The mood was lightened by skits on seniors’ issues, staged by the Temiskaming Rising Stars and its francophone counterpart, L’étoile de la sagesse Témiskaming. Almost a dozen information booths, inside and outside, profiled programs, services and businesses geared to seniors’ needs. It was sponsored by the Timiskaming Elder Abuse Task Force, the Timiskaming Injury Prevention Older Adult Committee and the Stay on Your Feet initiative. It was the final of three sessions held in the district, following events in Englehart and Kirkland Lake. ONTARIO ENERGY BOARD NOTICE ONTARIO POWER GENERATION INC. BOWMAN’S BERRY PATCH STRAWBERRIES WEEKENDER Ontario Power Generation Inc. has applied to raise its payment amounts. Learn more. Have your say. PICK YOUR OWN OR HAVE THEM FRESH PICKED FOR YOU Located at 211259 Garden Road in Hilliard Twp. Turn right off Highway 11 at the Thornloe Crossroads corner then follow signs For information about picking times or to place a fresh picked order call Ontario Power Generation Inc. has applied to the Ontario Energy Board with a plan to increase the amount it charges for the output of its nuclear generating facilities and most of its hydroelectric generating facilities in each of the five years beginning on January 1, 2017 and ending on December 31, 2021. If the Ontario Energy Board approved the application as filed, Ontario Power Generation has calculated that the monthly bill for the typical residential customer using 750 kWh of electricity per month would change by the following amounts: 2017 -$1.29 Matt & Elaine Bowman 705-563-8444 Temagami Family Health Team Submitted by Ellen Ibey Be Safe in the Sun One of the main causes of skin cancer is exposure to ultraviolet radiation, or UV rays. Did you know that ultraviolet rays can damage your skin in as little as 15 minutes? Most cases of skin cancer are preventable. You can reduce your risk of getting skin cancer by taking some simple but important steps. To avoid the harmful effects of UV rays, everyone should: • Select shaded areas for outdoor activities. • Wear a broad-brimmed hat and clothing with a tight weave, including a long-sleeved shirt and long pants, if you have to be in the sun for long periods of time. • Use a sunscreen with a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of at least 15. Make sure it has both UVAand UVB protection.Apply to exposed skin 15 to 30 minutes before going out in the sun, and re-apply 15 to 30 minutes after sun exposure begins. You should also re-apply sunscreen after vigorous activity that could remove the product, such as swimming, toweling or excessive sweating and rubbing. • Avoid overexposing yourself to the sun without protection, especially between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. • Certain medications can make your skin more sensitive to UV rays. Consult your health care provider if you have questions about your medication. Remember that babies and children are at greater risk than adults because of their more sensitive skin. Talk to your health care provider about any changes to your skin like: • a birthmark or a mole that changes shape, colour, size or surface • any new growth on your skin – pale, pearly nodules that may grow larger and crust, or red, scaly, sharply defined patches • any sore that doesn’t heal • any patch of skin that bleeds, oozes, swells, itches or becomes red and bumpy Preventative Health Care – the Easiest Way to Protect Your Future! 17 O’Connor Drive, P.O.

THE ONTARIO ENERGY BOARD IS HOLDING A PUBLIC HEARING The Ontario Energy Board (OEB) will hold a public hearing to consider Ontario Power Generation’s request. We will question the company on its case for a payment amount increase. We will also hear questions and arguments from individuals and from groups that represent consumers of electricity. At the end of this hearing, the OEB will decide what, if any, increase will be allowed. If Ontario Power Generation’s application is approved, the OEB’s subsequent review in the years 2018 through 2021 may be limited to applying a formula that is tied to inflation and to ensuring certain annual adjustments are made in accordance with the approved payment amount plan. You may not receive further notice of those adjustments. The OEB is an independent and impartial public agency. We make decisions that serve the public interest. Our goal is to promote a financially viable and efficient energy sector that provides you with reliable energy services at a reasonable cost. BE INFORMED AND HAVE YOUR SAY You have the right to information regarding this application and to be involved in the process: • You can review Ontario Power Generation’s application on the OEB’s website now. • You can file a letter with your comments, which will be considered during the hearing. • You can become an active participant (called an intervenor). Apply by July 26, 2016 or the hearing will go ahead without you and you will not receive any further notice of the proceeding. • At the end of the process, you can review the OEB’s decision and its reasons on our website. LEARN MORE The payment amounts relate to generation from Ontario Power Generation’s nuclear facilities and most of its hydroelectric facilities. They make up part of the Electricity line - one of the five line items on your bill. Our file number for this case is EB-2016-0152.

You can also phone our Consumer Relations Centre at 1-877-632-2727 with any questions. ORAL VS. WRITTEN HEARINGS There are two types of OEB hearings – oral and written.

If you think an oral hearing is needed, you can write to the OEB to explain why by July 26, 2016. PRIVACY If you write a letter of comment, your name and the content of your letter or the documents you file with the OEB will be put on the public record and the OEB website.

WEEKENDER Friday, July 15, 2016 Page 9a WEDO THAT ! $ 9.95 each Officials from four governments were on hand for the official construction start of Temagami First Nation’s $5.7-million multi-use facility and business centre. From left were Darlene Bowen, constituency assistant for MPP John Vanthof; Denise Deschamps, initiatives officer with FedNor; Temagami Mayor Lorie Hunter; Nipissing-Timiskaming MP Anthony Rota; TFN Chief Arnold Paul; David Zimmer, Ontario’s minister of indigenous relations and reconciliation, and TFN Second Chief Joe Katt. (Staff photo by Diane Johnston) Construction of TFN multi-use complex underway Continued from A Front Solar panels will be located on the building’s roof and geothermal heating will be installed. Local materials will be used in the construction, to both support the local economy and ease future maintenance, he said. When the project was first proposed, TFN Second Chief Joe Katt said some people had suggested waiting until the community had secured a larger land base. But those efforts have been ongoing for decades, he said. Instead, he said the TFN opted for “little steps” as it continues to work towards a larger base. The community’s youth need to know, he said, “that people in government have their interests at heart.” CONGRATULATIONS The new complex is “an exciting step, not only for the people of Bear Island but also for the Lake Temagami community and the entire municipality,” said Temagami Mayor Lorie Hunter. Like the improvements at the Temagami waterfront and landings, she said the new centre “is another great example of our communities moving forward.” She said the municipality and Temagami aboriginal communities enjoy a “special relationship.” “We have a number of issues in common – caring for our seniors and elders as they age and having the resources to be able to keep them in our communities. “We share infrastructure – roads, dumps and landings – and I also think we share a number of the same goals, like seeing our communities thrive and prosper, our young people educated and able to find employment.” She said they’re stronger when they work together, and pointed to the development of a partnership in a sustainable forestry licence and the potential for seniors’ housing. In a statement read at the sod-turning, TimiskamingCochrane MPP John Vanthof described Temagami as “one of the most recognizable names in this province.” “It has a mystical aura that people equate with ancient pines, clean water and the stroke of a canoe paddle. “Temagami is that and so much more. “We owe a great debt to the Temagami First Nation for their ongoing commitment to the preservation of this region, a task that hasn’t always been easy.” The state-of-the-art complex “marks a new chapter in the prosperous future” of the TFN, he said. ELDERS’ COMPLEX A second development, meanwhile, will also begin construction this summer. Land has been cleared for an elders’ complex offering 10 two-bedroom units. The housing component of the $1.3 million project will be funded by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Chief Paul said. He said the TFN is contributing about 40 per cent of the ALSO AVAILABLE IN LONG SLEEVE Includes heat seal logo in one location. Minimum of 6. total budget for a central common area and offices. Social gatherings can take place in the common area, he said, while home and health care workers will be able to use the offices. In the future, he said the development may offer assisted living services. He said the TFN’s population is growing, but it too has an increasing number of seniors. “We’re addressing it now,” he said. It’s also working with the municipality of Temagami on efforts to increase seniors’ housing on the mainland. WE WILL MATCH Anyone’s PRICE!

Fourteen youth walkers from the Attawapiskat First Nation and other James Bay coastal communities set out from Cochrane, Ontario June 7 on a month-long walking journey hoping to raise awareness of youth suicide in Indigenous communities. The journey, dubbed the “Walk of Hope”, was created in the wake of the recent suicide crisis where several Attawapiskat youth had taken their own lives or attempted suicide. The walk is 560 kilometres in length and each day the youth walk for about five hours or cover a distance of 30 kilometres per day with one day of rest per week. They passed through Temiskaming Shores Sunday, June 19 on their way to their final destination, Niagara Falls. While in Temiskaming Shores the youth walkers visited the Shannen Koostachin memorial statue along the shores of Lake Temiskaming and participated in a welcoming drumming ceremony at the New Liskeard Keeper’s of the Circle centre. Timmins-James Bay MP Charlie Angus met with the walkers while they visited the region. “I was so inspired by these youth to take on such a monu- mental walk. We are seeing Indigenous youth from across northern Canada take a stand and in dark times they are making a positive difference,” he said in a telephone interview from his home near Cobalt. Once they arrive in Niagara Falls on July 9 they will be attending a youth summit followed by an Assembly of First Nation Chiefs meeting. CONCERNS The youth plan to present their concerns to the chiefs when they arrive. “The goal of our walk is to raise awareness of the conditions that First Nations children live in and to hopefully see action to help youth,” said walker Remi Nakogee just south of New Liskeard on Highway 11 Sunday, June 19. Youth walker Sarah Ann Hookimaw said, “My brother and niece committed suicide and we need to raise awareness and so we walk for them.” The youth walkers say young people in their communities are facing insurmountable challenges and they need hope. Along the journey the youth are receiving sponsorship from various First Nation groups for accommodations and meals and De Beers Canada, which operates a diamond mine near Attawapiskat, has agreed to sponsor the youth. “We find the walking good, it is a bit hot,” said walker Clayten Koostachin. “Thanks to Timiskaming First Nation for sponsoring our stay last night.” LEGAL REPRESENTATION before WSIB BEAUDOIN BOUCHER Barristers & Solicitors Stephen Beaudoin Dominique Boucher Cochrane, Ontario FREE LEGAL ADVICE (bilingual service) Call (705) 272-4346 Friday, July 15, 2016 WEEKENDER Page 11a as “local” as it gets!

North Bay Chartrand’s Independent Grocer Page 14a WEEKENDER A garden party among flowers and friends Friday, July 15, 2016 Darlene Wroe Speaker Reporter Elizabeth Bishop and Cal Knight are pictured here with some of the garden posts, decorated by area artists, which will be auctioned off at the Temiskaming Art Gallery garden party Saturday, July 16. (Staff photo by Darlene Wroe) HUDSON TOWNSHIP -- The sweeping gardens of Joanne Smith of Hudson Township will be the scene of a garden party in the style of the popular television series Downton Abbey this Saturday, July 16. The Temiskaming Art Gallery (TAG) fundraiser event will offer area residents and visitors an opportunity to immerse themselves in the ambience of an early twentieth century garden party where they can enjoy a summer afternoon among the flowers and friends. As part of the garden party, there will also be an auction of a selection of garden posts created by several area artists including Maureen Steward, Lionel Venne, Cal Knight, Joe Ann Cleroux, Sue Cavanagh, Réjeanne Massie, and Amber Elliott. Over 20 four-by-four decorative posts of varying sizes will be auctioned off, with funds raised going toward the financial support of art exhibitions at the gallery, as well as support of tours of the gallery exhibits by students of area schools. Garden posts are often seen in Florida, says organizing committee member Elizabeth Bishop. Along with door prizes at the garden party, there will also be a photo booth so that guests can pose for a picture by which to remember the event. Guests will also be served champagne and strawberries, ice tea, lemonade, and gourmet dainties. People are encouraged to dress up in the style of Downton Abbey which represents the era of 1912 to 1939 in England, said Ms. Bishop. Even a fancy hat and a favourite summer outfit will help guests get into the mood of a garden party. People are encouraged to fill a car with friends and come for an enjoyable afternoon from 2 to 4:30 p.m, she said. Maps to Mrs. Smith’s home are printed on each ticket. Tickets can be purchased from TAG board members and various local stores in Cobalt, Haileybury and New Liskeard. There will be no garden tour this year, and the organizing party has been preparing this garden party in its stead.
