are just the tip of the
iceberg.
For instance,
take the ‘debt retirement charge’ that
Ontarians pay on their
monthly hydro bill.
Thanks to hopeless
mismanagement, the
former Ontario Hydro
utility was dismantled
in 1999 and $38.1
billion in total debt and
liabilities was handed
to the Ontario Electricity Finance Corporation (OEFC). The
government cooked up
a scheme under which
Ontario hydro ratepayers would be responsible for paying a portion
of this debt (total debt
minus hydro assets and
business taxes) through
a 0.7-cents-perkilowatt-hour ‘debt
retirement charge’ on
our hydro bills.
At the time,
ratepayers were told
the outstanding debt
load to be borne by
ratepayers was $7.8

by law to do so.
Conveniently
for the government,
there is a loophole in
the law that allows
‘debt retirement
charge’ revenues “to be
used for any purpose
that is in accordance

objectives and purposes, not just the
retirement of the
residual stranded

First Senior Olympic Games
By Pierrette Ouellette
hirty participants were
ready to begin
the First Senior Olympic Games that took
place from May 28th to
May 30th. Sunny
weather helped make
the event pleasurable.
Bursts of laughter and
shouts of encouragement were heard
throughout the games.
To facilitate the
T
organisation of these
First Senior Olympic
Games, most of the
activities started from
the Cedar Grove. The
great success of these
games was mainly due
to the participants
involved. They chose
to leave their daily
routines to try something new! No one
actually knew what to
expect! What fun we
had!
The main
objective of these
games was to get
people out after a long,
hard winter, for them to
enjoy themselves
while learning new
games.
What are some
direct results? 1) New
friendships have been
formed. 2) Some
people are interested in
getting involved in
next year's games. 3)
We have discovered
new interests and we
will see new teams this
fall: bean bag toss, WII
bowling, line dancing,
shuffleboard, and
possibly, set a time for
jigsaw puzzle enthusiasts.
If these First
Senior Olympic
Games have been such
a great success, it is
also largely because of
the volunteers to whom
I am very thankful. Ms.
Kathleen Bouchard,
Shannon Murphy and
Sylvie Rousseau lead
the Morning Exercises.
We had Free Throw
Basketball and Texas
Horseshoe with the
help of Mr. Michael
Levesque. Mr. Jim
Arsenault organized

EDITOR’S
Someone
Please....
Letters to the Editor
Goodbye, Farewell, and
Amen
It is with mixed
emotions that we
announce that we are
bidding farewell to
Chapleau. For over
thirty-five years we have
called it home but the
time has come for us to
move on. We are moving
to be closer to our
children and our
grandson Henry. It
would be absolutely
impossible for us to
describe many of the
happy events we have
shared with the
community. Early on
Gabbi helped to organize
the Girl Guides of
Chapleau and Rick put in
many enjoyable hours at
the Ski Club. Teaching
you and your children at
school was our life and
Chapleau was a great
place to raise our
children. Whether our
memories are of the
community, our classes
or our after school
activities, they are ones
that we will cherish
forever.
Obviously there
are many good changes to
our lives that will take
place with this move but
there will be regrets as
well. Leaving behind
friends will be difficult
but most difficult will be
leaving behind the health
care that we have been
privileged to experience
the last couple of years.
When we first came to
Chapleau it was Doctor
Broomhead that cared for
us. He delivered our
children and on one
occasion it was his quick
decision making that
saved the life of our son.
Most will not know or
remember that time, but
we will forever
remember how the whole
community wrapped
their arms around our
family and helped us
through that time. Colds,
stitches and broken bones
Dr. Broomhead was there
for us and we were and
are grateful for his care.
Now there are three
young doctors that have
returned to the
community. We taught
all three of these fine
people so have known
them for many years.
They are caring
professionals and
Chapleau should be so
proud and grateful that
they have chosen to bring
their young families
home to work in the
community when they
have so many options
available. You only have
to look at them to know
that they are working
hard and that their
responsibilities to both
their families and
their community are
many. To quote Dr.
Sidney Freedman from
MASH, episode 53,
season 3, “Ladies and
gentlemen take my
advice, (every once in a
while) take down your
pants and slide on the
ice”. (You may have to
watch the episode to
understand the advice).
We will miss you. Take
care of yourselves, your
family and your
community.
Next to the
doctors of course we must
thank those at the
hospital. Gratefully we
did not visit you often,
but when we did you
were also professional
and caring. As time went
by we met more and more
of “our students” working
there. Apart from
signaling that we were
aging it also signaled that
some of the students that
left our high school were
getting their professional
training and then
choosing to return. This
community is so blessed.
So, as I said, it is
with mixed emotions that
we leave, but the time has
come to move on. Our
thanks and farewell to all
and it bears repeating;
“thank you for trusting us
with the care of your
children”.

Lifetime of swimming at Pig Pen. Mulligan's Bay,
Lake Windermere, Florida to an aquatic centre
Chapleau
Moments
by
Michael J. Morris
The swimming
pool in Cranbrook,
now called an aquatic
centre is a long way
from the cold waters of
the Kebsquasheshing
River and Lake
Windermere where I
learned to swim in the
1940s.
I have no
recollection of swimming at the 'Pig Pen'
which was located
behind the old curling
rink on Pine Street, but
someone, likely one of
my cousins, Betty,
Anne or Joan Zufelt
took a photo of me
there when I was
maybe three or so.
However, I do
recall swimming at the
beach, created by Dr.
G.E. Young, complete
with bath houses,
wading pools, dock
and diving boards, with
fresh sand dumped on
i t y e a r l y, a n d t h e
adjacent band stand,
canteen, swings and
other play things.
The beach was
the place to be in the
summer months when I
was a kid, unless of
course, we were down
the lake at Mulligan's
Bay or environs, which
was reached by boat
going down either the
"front" or "back" river
to reach the bay. It has
always intrigued me
that we went "down the
lake" by rivers. Coming home though, we
went "up" one of the
rivers to town, or
simply "up to town".
My earliest
memory of a trip to
Mulligan's Bay was
shortly after the end of
World War II in 1945.
One morning while
playing in the back
yard at our house on
Grey Street, I heard
loud voices coming
Chapleau Beach 1950s (Bob Lewis collection)
Licenced
Motor Vehicle
Inspection Station
C
from somewhere "up
the lane", which meant
along Birch Street.
Although I was
supposed to get
permission to leave the
yard, I could not resist
the temptation to find
out what was happening so off I went. On
the front porch of the
Crichton home the big
brick house at Birch
and Aberdeen, a group
of folks were chatting,
laughing and singing.
I joined them -- Joe, Charlie, Rita, and
Edith (Babe) Crichton;
Doug and Don Jardine,
and Alcide Small for
sure -- all veterans and
just home from serving
in Canada's forces in
World War II and they
were heading to
Mulligan's Bay to the
Crichton camp.
They invited
me to join them, and off
we went, stopping
along the way to ask
Edith Hunt, my grandmother, if I could go
with them. Nanny
agreed, after all she
was the aunt of the
Crichton's. Their
mother Helen and my
grandmother were
sisters.
We travelled
down the back by
canoe and out of the
mothballs of memory I
had a wonderful time.

DES JEUNES ENGAGÉS AVEC CŒUR!
Le 15 mai, les
élèves de la 3e à la 6e
année de l’école SacréCœur ont démontré
qu’ils avaient du cœur!
Vingt élèves ont
participé à l’événement
Sautons et Dribblons
avec cœur. Ils ont sauté
ou dribblé pendant 2
heures consécutives.
Cet événement a pour
but d’amasser des fonds
pour la fondation des
maladies du cœur en
plus de conscientiser les
jeunes aux bienfaits de
l’activité physique.
Nos élèves ont
amassé une somme de
1 327,35 $, avec une
mention honorable à
Annabelle Hazen qui a
amassé un tiers de cette
somme. Merci à l’école
Sacré-Cœur d’avoir
fourni jus et fruits pour
nos participants. En plus
des prix individuels pour
nos élèves, la fondation
des maladies du cœur
remettra environ 1 347
points cœur atout pour
acheter du matériel pour
le gymnase.
Merci à tous nos
jeunes de cœur!

CÉLÉBRATION DE SUCCÈS À FORMATION+
Le vendredi 6 juin,
c’était la fête à
FormationPLUS… la
Célébration de succès!
Chaque début de juin,
nous soulignons les
réalisations de l’année
de nos personnes
apprenantes. Cette
célébration nous donne
la chance de nous
rassembler avant les
vacances estivales et de
récompenser le travail
ardu de nos personnes
apprenantes.
En plus des
attestations variées
remises à nos
personnes apprenantes,
FormationPLUS était
fier de remettre le
certificat du programme
ACE (Accès-carrièreétudes) à Alain
Langelier. Ce certificat
est aussi connu sous
l ’ e x p r e s s i o n
« équivalence de 12 e
année » . L’événement
était un peu spécial, car
le fils d’Alain avait
gradué la veille à
Trillium.
Lors de son
discours, Alain
mentionne que
retourner aux études en
tant qu’adulte n’est pas
une décision facile, mais
s ’en est une qui vaut la
peine. Avec patience,
détermination et
persévérance, tu peux
aboutir à ton but. L’appui
de ta famille et de ton
entourage est essentiel.
Il a pensé de tout lâcher
par bout, mais a choisi
de foncer. Aujourd’hui, il
en est très fier. Alain
mentionne qu’avoir
retourné aux études n’a
pas seulement amélioré
ses connaissances
académiques, mais
aussi son savoir-faire et
son savoir-être.
Alain a aussi reçu le
Prix Northern Credit
Union. Ce prix est remis
à une finissante ou un
finissant qui s’implique
dans des services
communautaires tout en
gardant une bonne
moyenne académique.
La fête a terminé
avec un peu d’émotions.
Jocelyne Beaulieu, une
de nos formatrices,
prend sa retraite. Elle est
avec nous depuis cinq
ans déjà. C’est avec
tristesse que nous la
voyons partir, toutefois,
c’est une retraite bien
méritée. Alors, nous lui
souhaitons bonne
retraite.

Ontario's Energy Nightmare
Cont’d from P.1
The government
was forced to fess up
and explain what was
going on. And we
learned that in 2004 the
government had “reset”
the debt to $11.9 billion.
Apparently, they can do
that. They have the
power to simply change
the numbers on a debt
clock with a snap of their
fingers. Poof: we owe $4
billion more.
And the Liberal
government conveniently kept this secret
from the public until
after the 2011 provincial
election. In 2011, the
public finally learned
that the government had
retroactively added
billions to this debt.
The recent
Ontario budget shows
that ratepayers still owe
$3.9 billion, and Energy
Minister Bob Chiarelli
actually touted the fact
that his government
planned to have this debt
fully paid off by 2016.
Fifteen years
after it was introduced,
and after raising approximately $14.5 billion, we
will finally retire the
hydro ‘debt retirement
fee’.
But many
questions still loom.
Why was the public
deceived? How was the
extra money spent? Did
the funds go into general
revenues? How does
$6.7 billion go unaccounted for in a modern
government?
And most
importantly, if this is
how the Ontario Liberals
manage the debt of a
public utility, can we
actually trust them to
manage the province’s
staggering $289-billion
public debt?
Premiers Jeux d'ainés 2014

Trente participants se sont inscrits aux
trois jours de jeux d'ainés

l'organisation, presque

auxquelles ils/elles
n'avaient jamais joué.
Quel plaisir nous avons
eu!
L'objectif des jeux était la
rencontre sociale après
un rude hiver et
l'apprentissage de
nouveaux jeux.
Le résultat des
jeux? 1)Des liens
d'amitié se sont formés.
2) On a déjà des
personnes intéressés à
l'organisation des jeux
2015. 3) On a découvert
de nouveaux intérêts
qu'on veut poursuivre
pendant l'année: de
nouvelles équipes pour
les jeux de poches, le jeu
de quilles sur le WII et la
danse en ligne à
l'automne, peut-être
même un club pour
ceux/celles qui aiment
faire les casse-tête Le jeu
de galets a aussi attiré
beaucoup d'intérêt.
Si ces premiers
jeux d'aînés ont été une
réussite, c'est grâce à la
disponibilité des
bénévoles que je tiens à
remercier. Mesdames
Kathleen Bouchard,
Shannon Murphy et
Sylvie Rousseau qui ont
mené les sessions
d'exercices. On a eu le
lancer-libre de ballonpanier et le jeu de
rondelles (Texan Horseshoe) grâce à M. Michael
Levesque. C'est M. Jim
Arsenault qui a organisé
le jeu de galets ; il a su
démontrer beaucoup de
flexibilité devant le défi
de l'installation.
P i e r r e t t e
Ouellette a coordonné la
competition des jeux de
casse-têtes et la soirée de
jeux de société. Avec
l'aide de Sylvie Rousseau
la marche prediction et la
danse en ligne se sont
bien déroulées. Tracy
Castonguay et Céline
Rail ont été un aide
précieux pour
l ' o rg a n i s a t i o n d e l a
marche Poker. L'expertise
de Jane Paquette a facilité
l'apprentissage du jeu de
quilles sur le WII. Et
finalement, Rachel Pressé
s'est rendue disponbible
pour le jeu de Bingo.
Christine Ouellette était
la conceptrice des
passeports.
Je veux souligner
tout spécialement la très
grande disponibilité de la
Légion canadienne pour
le déjeuner du mercredi
offert aux participants le
premier jour des jeux
d'ainés, et cela, malgré
un calendrier d'activités
bien rempli.
Le club Maria
Chapdelaine était
heureux d'organiser les
Premiers Jeux d'ainés à

doubler le nombre de
participants aux jeux.

Relay Is On Friday
By Gisele Barlow &
committee
Relay for Life
Chapleau starts with the
opening ceremonies on
Friday June 13th at the
Field of Dreams at 6:30
p.m. The seventh
annual Relay features
the inspiring victory
walk for our survivors
and the always
meaningful luminary
ceremony (around
10:00 p.m).
Local
talent will be
showcased throughout
the night. Childrens
activities will also be
taking place courtesy of
Amanda Langelier
starting at 5:00 p.m. as
well as teams hosting
special events, games
and treats. Food and
refreshments are also
available courtesy of
the Oddfellows.
Relay is a
yearly event that
encourages the
community to come
together to celebrate our
triumphs and honour
our loved ones together.
Cancer has touched us
all, we all have a reason
to Relay. We have all
won, lost, learned, hurt,
laughed, and cried. We
have faced it alone, we
have faced it with
friends and family.
Relay lets the entire
community face it
together. It shows
support for the fight
a g a i n s t c a n c e r, i t
highlights the caring
and generosity of our
community, and it helps
us honour those who
have lost their battle.
Relay for life helps us
celebrate life, past,
present and future.
Relay is for everyone!
Young and old, there are
plenty of activities,
food, refreshments and
entertainment to keep
you busy for hours.
There are draws, raffles,
m u s i c ,
l i v e
entertainment and many
ways to show support
and participate. Relay
for Life is a festival of
spirit
and
determination, and we
would like to invite
everyone to come out
and share in an
evening/night you will
never forget.
Our opening
ceremonies and
survivor walk: We
open with a warm
welcome and this year
Mr. Steve Schmidt local
celebrity and film
producer, will read a
very meaningful poem
on why Relay is
overnight. He will also
read out the names of
our Survivors. The
survivors who register
prior to Relay, take the
first lap … the victory
lap. Once completed,
Shannon Fuller will
warm up the teams and
walkers and we begin
the walk.
Our Luminary
ceremony: candles in
luminary bags with the
name of your loved
ones are placed along
the entire track
(purchased at or before
Relay for $5.00 each) At
dusk, we light them
during a moment of
silence. One by one the
luminaries are lit by
2013
family and friends until
the track is lit up in
honour and in memory
of anyone who has
faced and battled the
disease. It is almost
incomprehensible to
look out across the track
as you are walking and
realize that each light
represents a person.
And we walk on.
Our teams:
Relay for life Teams are
incredible! They plan
anywhere from months
to minutes and every
year add so much to the
event. Veteran teams
continue to dazzle us
with their dedication,
organization and
commitment, while
brand new teams
surprise us with their
enthusiasm and
imagination. Our teams
are the heart and soul of
the Relay and we
appreciate their
contribution so very
much. It is never too
late to register a team!
What a wonderful
reflection of our little
town.
Our town: You
have come out to walk a
few laps, participate in
the festivities, and light
the luminaries. You
have supported the
Relay with pledges,
volunteering time,
products, prizes and
expertise. You have
helped make this annual
event an important
reflection of our town
spirit. We are proud of
your generosity and
caring. We are amazed
by you.
If you have yet
to experience the
Chapleau Relay for Life
we encourage you to
2013
come out and see what it
is all about. Come
encounter the sense of
community and support
we have just described
for yourself. Friday
June 13th at the Field of
Dreams track. A great
big Thank you to all our
teams, volunteers past
and present, and
supporters of all kinds
for making this event a
success year after year.

Chapleau Moments
Dane, Jessica and Zach, lifeguards at
Cranbrook Aquatic Centre, say "Hello". They
watch out for MJ at the pool.
Cont’d from P.3
Green, Hands, and
Evans families, and
friends from Chapleau
and elsewhere.
Back in the
day, Mulligan's Bay
was only reachable by
boat and Healy by
train, and they were
"camps" in the real
sense of the word.
Anyway, I got
all growed up and as so
often happens, swimming wasn't really part
of my life for many
years.The swimming
pool in Cranbrook
became part of my life
three years ago now . It
really all started when
I was in Orlando,
Florida, visiting my
friend Michael Pelzer,
and going to the pool
every day.
A s I w a s
leaving Orlando,
Michael asked me if
there was a swimming
pool in Cranbrook,
and when I said there
was, he suggested I
start using it. So,
immediately upon my
return, I threw my
swim trunks and towel
in a bag and off I went.
After proving I lived in
Cranbrook, I paid for a
month, and as I headed
to the pool entrance,
the lady at the leisure
desk asked, "Are you
going to start right
now?"
When I replied
yes, she said, "Okay
but I should tell you
there are 175 elementary school children in
there."
I knew there
was no turning back
even though I had
never seen 175 people
at one time swimming
at the Chapleau beach
or anywhere else for
that matter in my life.
On my first day I
started in the wave
pool, had never been in
one of those before,
and for an hour, I
managed to dodge and
avoid crashing into the
kids.
I graduated to
the main pool and now,
three years later it is
also a social experience. I particularly
enjoy seeing parents
and children there, and
sometimes grandparents too.
One night I
watched two young
fellows about 12 on
the diving board. One
was a pretty good
diver, but his buddy
not so. The better diver
spent an hour patiently
working with his
friend -- and at the end,
high fives! I also
really enjoy watching
good divers. I never
was one. I don't think I
ever dove off the high
board at the Chapleau
beach.
Perhaps my
favourite activity to
watch, and way down
deep I would like to try
it, is the rope swing
into the pool. It brings
back memories of
swinging out over the
Humber River in
Toronto on a rope tied
to a tree and dropping
into the muddy water,
as a kid, a la Tom
Sawyer!. At the pool
when they are rope
swinging, I hold
contests, picking the
male and female
winner -- of course
nobody knows until
now that I do it.
Last year to
mark my two years at
the pool, the lifeguards, who are truly
g r e a t p e o p l e , p r esented me with a
certificate of congratulations on my two
years of swimming,
"Thank you for your
cheerful spirit. We
enjoy seeing you every
day. The Lifeguards".
I mentioned
doing a column on
swimming and my
friends the lifeguards
agreed to photos to
share with you to mark
my three years of
swimming almost
every day. Meet my
friends Dane, Jessica
and Zach who have
guided me from Day
One along with all the
other lifeguards at the
Cranbrook Aquatic
Centre, and say
" H E L L O " t o
Chapleau.
Thanks to all
of you and to Michael
my friend in Orlando,
and all my friends and
family who shared
great moments at
Healy and/or "down
the lake".
I s h o u l d
mention in the interests of full disclosure - I use a "noodle" now
for safety reasons
while swimming. My
email is mj.morris@

On June 23, 1989, the film version of the DC Comics hero Batman is
released in theaters. Warner Brothers hyped "Batman" as a major
