By Wendy GabrekOntario is committing

to invest up to $1.05 mil-lion annually in Matthews House Hospice, once con-struction of its new 10-bed hospice is completed.

The province is provid-ing annual funding for four existing hospice beds be-ginning this year. Funding for six additional beds will be provided once construc-tion on the expanded hos-pice on Wellington Street is complete in spring 2018.

This new investment by Ontario will help Matthews House Hospice serve up to 125 residents this year and 250 or more residents an-nually, for end of life care, once they are situated on Wellington Street in Allis-ton.

“We thank the govern-ment and PA John Fraser for their support, and genu-ine compassion. We thank Jim Wilson for his persis-tent efforts to bring this to a reality on behalf of our community and Matthews House,” said Kimberly Woodland, CEO, Matthews

House Hospice. “$700,000 still (needs) to be raised to expand our high quality hospice palliative care ser-vices in the community. We are thrilled to receive the funding for our residential beds and yes, there is more to do.”

Last year Matthews House Hospice served 514 clients and their families in their own home or in a day program at our Community Hospice.

“With continued sup-port by South Simcoe com-munities, we plan to raise enough funds this year to expand our community based programs to serve up to 1,000 individuals and families,” said Woodland.

The Hospice is current-ly planning a charity golf tournament on Sept. 14, and for its 5th Annual Gala on Sept. 30. Information and tickets are available online at matthewshouse-hospice.ca

“Matthews House Hos-pice is thrilled to receive this annual funding for our four residential hos-

pice beds in South Sim-coe,” said Marv Chantler, vice-president, Matthews House, retired farmer. “For years the care provided to the South Simcoe commu-nity by Matthews House has been supported gener-ously through a partnership of local donors, munici-palities and volunteers, and now government has joined our journey-thank you.”

“Our small community has been doing a stellar job in supporting Matthews House Hospice, but we needed sustained funding to ensure that the services could continue and expand to service our growing pop-ulation. Our family were beneficiaries of the com-passionate, dignified care offered at Matthews House and so, we are thrilled to see the provincial govern-ment providing funding for this vital service,” said Kathryn Mooij, Daughter of Bunty-Client at Mat-thews House Hospice.

Matthews House receives funding for hospice beds

John Fraser, Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, and Ann Hoggarth, MPP for Barrie, were on hand at Matthews House Hospice re-cently to announce a long term investment in strengthening hospice palliative care in Alliston. It was revealed that MHH will receive just over $1 million a year, once its new 10-bed hospice is complete on Wellington Street in 2018.

It’s no secret the cost of living in this wonderful, free society continues to grow exponentially.

This huge party balloon that is our bloated gover-nance and all of its trap-pings, is one or two good blows away from explod-ing in our collective faces. I don’t want to be respon-sible for cleaning up this rubbery, spit-covered mess. And I sure don’t want my kids to be charged with keeping the Shop Vac handy.

Governments have al-ways been notoriously loose with the purse strings. Politicians merely accept the dire words of treasurers and financial officers, and approve massive budgets with massive increases, year after year.

This trend cannot con-tinue, for the simple reason that we will one day be un-able to pay for it all. The economies of countries that have spiralled into bank-ruptcy have suffered from the same illness – borrow-ing and spending to the point of exhaustion.

We in the relatively suc-cessful west continue mer-rily along, thinking all is well. We have a great so-ciety and atmosphere here in Canada. Our economy is relatively strong, jobs are good and tourism is high.

But beneath our tailored suits and expensive run-ning shoes lurks a shadow – the shadow of crushing debt and rising costs. Most of us think our govern-ment is immune from those typical price increases that impact average homeown-ers like you and I. We are fully aware of increases to our utilities – hydro and natural gas. We are keenly aware of the price of gas at the pumps, as we commute to work each day. We feel the pinch when our water and sewer rates rise, and as we open our tax bills every year.

We know how expen-sive groceries are and what it costs to outfit our teenag-ers for school, or send them to university.

We often think our poli-ticians and decision-mak-ers live in a bubble or have

that ivory-tower mentality that makes them immune to the pressures of the real world.

While this may be true in some cases, our govern-ments are also being held hostage by those corporate, profit-driven gougers.

Municipalities, like homeowners, are strug-gling with massive in-creases in electricity rates, thanks to OPG and Hydro One. With a monopoly on power, they charge at will. I guess they have their own mandate to follow – mak-ing money.

To average homeown-ers, these costs are notice-able and becoming burden-some. For large companies and municipalities, their electricity bills are mas-sive. So even a modest in-crease will severely impact the bottom line.

Ontarians “enjoy” the highest hydro rates in North America and suc-cessive provincial govern-ments are all to blame.

Hydro One has spent roughly $500 million ac-quiring local distribution companies between 1999 and 2004. This money could have been better spent on improving the grid or paying down the debt. After years or strug-gling with this giant, the Province has sold most of its shares in Hydro One, re-investing this money, they say, in infrastructure. On-tario has dedicated $3.2 bil-lion from the sale of Hydro One shares in 2015 to the Trillium Trust, a fund for infrastructure projects that will help create jobs and strengthen the economy.

Ontario is “on track to

generate approximately $9 billion in gross proceeds and other revenue ben-efits from broadening the ownership of Hydro One, while remaining the largest single shareholder. Taxpay-ers continue to benefit from dividends in the company ...”

What dividends? The bonus of getting shafted year after year? Oh, I feel so much better.

“Maximizing the value of provincial assets is part of the government’s eco-nomic plan to build Ontario up and deliver on its num-ber-one priority to grow the economy and create jobs.”

If you read between the lines, this means the prov-ince is so strapped for cash they have to start selling off everything they own to stay afloat. Again, not very reassuring.

And yet, I can’t help but think there’s an easy solu-

tion to all of this.As “judge, jury and

prosecutor,” we the citi-zens, and our elected gov-ernment officials, make the rules. We decide our future. If that’s a given, then we should also put our collec-tive feet down and set some very hard rules.

We “own” part of Hydro One, so therefore, we should demand that rates be frozen and governments themselves pay a reduced rate, as should hospitals, fire halls, police stations, schools ...

We should set the same conditions on Enbridge, lowering rates to govern-ment buildings and facili-ties. And while we’re at it, we must demand a reduced price at the pumps from the oil giants, to fill our gov-ernment vehicles.

I say we create a “Black Book for Providers” for those who supply our gov-

ernments. In it, we set the rates and conditions of these “contracts.” Take it or leave it. Don’t want to play? Then go elsewhere, and lose your government rebates and tax incentives.

Sure, we live in a free market economy, but what’s wrong with some good, old-fashioned bar-gaining? Our various levels of government are likely among the biggest consum-ers of electricity and gas, so telling the monopolies to make a deal is only fair.

We have to totally revis-it the way we think and the way we do business. We can’t merely accept things “because that’s how they are.” We can’t keep paying a premium on everything.

We cannot let ourselves be hog-tied by the utilities, who make huge profits on the backs of taxpayers.

What say you all? Keep those pitchforks handy!

We should demand better utility rates

Editorial, Letters & Opinion“The window to the world can be covered by a newspaper.”

~ Stanislaw Jerzy Lec

The following is an open letter to Dr. Kellie Leitch, MP for Simcoe-Grey

You have made your-self a household name by triggering a debate about anti-Canadian values. The most truly Canadian value for which Canadians are admired globally is toler-ance. This is a time in his-tory when individuals and nations must proactively protect civility by remem-bering that tolerance is the foundation of all civility.

The question in your survey tarnishes globally and undermines in Canada the importance of toler-ance. Your survey question is for those that have not read it: “Should the Ca-nadian government screen potential immigrants for anti-Canadian values as part of its normal screen-ing for refugees and landed immigrants?”

The notion of a single set of Canadian values is not an acceptable premise for too many reasons to ad-dress. The three most im-portant do require elabora-tion.

Our rights are and should be universal and they articulated clearly in the United Nations Uni-versal Declaration of Hu-man Rights. To define our universal rights as unique-ly Canadian values permits too much abuse of these rights outside of Canada by other countries declar-ing their own set of nation-

al values.Secondly, everyone

born here or who enters Canada must adhere to all the laws of Canada. These laws are based upon the Charter of Rights and Free-doms. This makes your proposed screening both redundant and corrosive to our national character.

Finally, screening based on anti-Canadian values is premised on a very alien-ating notion that assumes all Canadians have a single set of values. Any leader, political party or govern-ment imposing a standard set of Canadian values on its citizens is a greater re-striction on our own politi-cal, religious and personal rights. Diversity and toler-ance of different personal values within a common legal framework is one of our core strengths as a na-tion.

The Charter of Rights and Freedoms restricts dis-crimination against people with different values and protects us form discrimi-nation based on our own values. It does, not demand privately or publically we hold a single set of state imposed and defined val-ues. The negativity in your question disqualifies you from leading the Conser-vative Party but also a nation and a people as di-verse as ours.

During the period that Stephen Harper ruled the Conservative Party of Can-ada, Dr. Leitch you might

have been rewarded for a lack of higher conscience. As a leadership candidate there is no excuse. Your previous transgressions in-clude obtaining your seat by violating Helena Guer-gis’s presumption of inno-cence, defending the Harp-er Government repeatedly to the point that you re-ceived numerous counts of censure of your betrayal of the Hippocratic Oath from your medical counterparts for your support of asbes-tos and refugee health cuts and your final embarrass-ing defense of a hotline for barbaric cultural practices

during the last election.A healthy democracy

requires that each politi-cal party put its best leader and the best policies in for-ward at each election for the voters to consider.

My motivation in want-ing the best Conservative national leader might be questioned but it is a sound one. The corrective and re-storative nature of democ-racy requires a real elec-tion. The sacred duty of all Conservatives as it is with all the political parties in Canada is to select a leader who adheres to the precept that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and not gov-ernment policy is the best protection of our national and personal values.

All federal elections

should be about public pol-icy. There should be debate about budget spending, taxation, foreign policy, management practices and policies that drive govern-ment. Elections should not be about the sinister politi-cal rewards that balkaniza-tion of the Canada’s grace potentially bring a candi-date.

We do not relish nor respect the importation of Trump’s vocabulary to our political arena that your question starts. Canadians and Conservatives locally and nationally deserve a better form of political leadership and discourse. Your question if it were ever put into practice dep-recates the sanctity of tol-erance more than a single

terrorist event can ever hope to achieve.

This is why we need a leadership debate with your fellow candidates for Conservative here in Sim-coe-Grey.

I hope that Dr. Leitch you can please agree and to organize a Conservative leadership debate or Town Hall in our riding. Local conservatives, indepen-dents and new comers to politics deserve a chance to make an informed choice. If you are not pre-pared to do this then ide-ally the Conservative Party of Canada or a local group of concerned citizens can take this task on.

‘Spendaholic’ LiberalsGet your latest hydro bill? I’ll wager it’s up there

in the monetary stratosphere!That’s what happens when you vote for spen-

daholic greenie-weenies. Or when you don’t raise hell about important issues and don’t vote at all.

The provincial dictatorship of Kathleen Wyn-ne has jacked our hydro costs up to an unafford-able scam. While most Ontarians say nothing and worry more about the Toronto Maple “Laffs,” we got robbed blind. While Ontario continues to lose a million jobs with plant closures and jobs bleed away to jurisdictions with much cheeper hydro rates, Ontario wimps out with the Liberals. We’re going broke with energy-cost suicide.

The Queen’s Park opposition to Wynne’s scam-sters need to grow a spine. It can best be described as having all the courage of a frightened rabbit. Where are they? Why are they not demanding a halt to this insanity? Why are they not demanding the HST be lifted from hydro and heating bills?

Enjoy your future job losses.

By Wendy GabrekIn an effort to foster

a community experi-ence within the new resi-dential development of Treetops Alliston, Sor-bara, Brookfield Resi-dential, and the Biffis Family, hosted a “Meet your Neighbour” event in Treetops Park on Sun-day, Aug. 28.

“We occasionally run events for our purchas-ers/homeowners,” said a Sorbara Group of Com-

panies team representa-tive. “Our Treetops site in Alliston is special because there is a great park in the centre of the community with a play-ground, splash pad and even volleyball courts!”

Two builders have worked together as a team to build Treetops into what it is today.

Sorbara Group of Companies and Brook-field Residential have partnered with the devel-

oper to build this beauti-ful community of homes, surrounded by amazing facilities like the Treetops Park – sharing one pre-sentation centre, the same sales staff and meeting weekly to ensure a suc-cessful team experience.

“We feel as though our partnership sets the example for the commu-nity,” said the representa-tive. “Our homeowners are known to be friendly, wel-coming and great neigh-

bours. This park party was planned in an effort to con-tinually introduce neigh-bours to each other and to recognize some of the good deeds happening through-out the community.”

The first ever “Good Neighbour Award” was given out to homeowner, Carlos Roldan, for previ-

ously organizing a wildly successful block party out of the goodness of his heart.

“Once local councillor Fran Sainsbury caught wind of the party she wanted to personally recognize Carlos and the community as a whole. Word spread and more councillors and even the

mayor attended to show their appreciation. We are happy with the suc-cess of the event and look forward to build-ing more great homes for great people!”

Treetops presents first Good Neighbour Award

Sorbara and its partner, Brookfield Residential, along with the developer, the Biffis Family, held a Meet Your Neighbour Party in Treetops Park. The 3-hour event included a food trucks, a bouncy castle, balloon animals, fish pond, children’s raffle, splash pad, access to the playground and Little Rays Reptile Show and Meet & Greet the animals. A “Good Neighbour Award” was also handed out, and local councillors, including Ward 4 Councillor Fran Sainsbury were in attendance.

Through-out his career, Detective Inspector Clegg has held investigative and manage-ment roles in specialized policing units including Drug Enforcement, Pro-vincial Weapons Enforce-ment, Outlaw Motorcycle Gang Enforcement, Re-peat Offender and Parole Enforcement and Anti-Racketeering investiga-tions focusing on Orga-nized Crime. He was also assigned as the manager in charge planning of logisti-cal operations for the Inte-grated Security Unit of the 2015 Pan-American games as well as Operations Chief in the Unified Command Centre during the opera-tional phase of the games.

Currently, Detective In-spector Clegg is the Proj-ect lead of the OPP Cyber Strategy Implementation Team, tasked with creating an organization wide com-prehensive strategy to ad-dress challenges associated with Cyber Crime.

Detective Inspector Clegg has an extensive amount of experience in policing multi-agency in-vestigations and works closely with policing part-

New detachment commander for Nottawasaga OPP

Assault, disturbance in Tottenham

On Monday, Aug. 29 at approximately 9:50 p.m., mem-bers of the Nottawasaga Detachment, Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) received information of a disturbance in the area of the Dairy Queen on Queen Street in Tottenham.

Investigation reveals that a male person had entered a private residence on Queen Street North, and had physi-cally assaulted another male occupant. No serious injuries were reported. The assailant then left the residence. The victim’s father then encountered the suspect in the area of Dairy Queen, and a subsequent disturbance took place.

Dacota Douglas Kidd, age 24, of McKnight Cr. Totten-ham has been charged with Assault; Utter Threats; Fail to Comply with a Recognizance and Intimidation.

Four-year sentence forillegal credit card data

On March 13, 2013, members of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) stopped a stolen motor vehicle northbound on the 400 Highway at Mapleview Drive, City of Barrie.

Two males were arrested and charged. Further investigation led to 2,500 counter-feit and stolen credit numbers, counterfeit Ontario Driver licenses and a template to manufacture counterfeit Ontario Driver’s licenses.

After a two-week Superior Court trial, Rajeer Henry Balendra, a 33-year-old To-ronto resident was convicted of conspiracy to commit fraud over $5,000; illegal pos-session of counterfeit data; possession of counterfeit credit cards and identity theft.

Multiple financial institutions in Canada and the United States were victimized with potential loss of over $2 million.

Balendra was sentenced to four years in custody by Superior Court Justice S. Healey.

OPP continue to seek publicassistance in cold case murder

On December 17, 2015, at 6:42 a.m., the body of 65-year-old Frederick “John” Hatch was discovered east of the 10th Line off Wellington Road 124 near the Town of Erin.

Mr. Hatch was last seen in the Ottawa area on Dec. 16, 2015, at 1:05 p.m. at a Dollar Tree Store. The manner in which he travelled between Ottawa and Erin is unknown, however, Mr. Hatch was known to hitchhike. At the time of his death, he was wearing a denim vest with Mickey Mouse characters on the back, a black leather jacket, a blue/white bandana, glasses, black Harley Davidson boots and was carrying a red duffel bag.

On June 2, 2016, the Government of the Province of Ontario offered a total reward of $50,000 for the information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) re-sponsible for the murder of Frederick “John” Hatch.

As a means to assist this ongoing investigation, an unprecedented approach is being undertaken to encourage anyone with information regarding this homicide to contact the OPP. A black and white OPP van with pictures of Mr. Hatch and details pertaining to this investigation will be positioned in communities from Erin to Nepean. This van will serve as a moving billboard and will be moved weekly eventually making its way along Highway 7 communities in Central Ontario.

Under the direction of Detective Inspector Andy Raffay of the OPP Criminal Investi-gation Branch (CIB), investigators from the Wellington County OPP, neighboring OPP detachments, West Region Criminal Operations and the OPP Forensic Identification Services continue the investigation into the murder of Mr. Hatch. Investigators urge any person with information regarding the person(s) responsible for his murder to im-mediately contact the Ontario Provincial Police at 1-888-310-1122 or the nearest police authority.

Further information about this case is available on the OPP website at: www.opp.ca.Should you wish to remain anonymous, you may call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-

TIPS (8477), where you may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000.

NEW HOMEGa

Crazy Pants Theatre is moving!Crazy Pants Theatre Co., owned by Sarah Jane O’Donnell, is

moving locations from Main Street Beeton to 60 Victoria Street West in Alliston.

“After much thought and consideration for the needs of our stu-dents, families, and our studio we came to the decision to look for new space and an amazing opportunity has come up for us in Allis-ton,” said Ms. O’Donnell. “This new studio is going to allow us to do so much more and provide our families with even better service.”

The new location has two floors and Small Inspirations Art Studio, owned by Adrienne Baldassara, will be located on the lower level. “A cozy lobby will be set up on the lower level which has access to a huge parking lot at our lower entrance, making pick up and drop off convenient and easy,” said O’Donnell.

Crazy Pants Theatre is currently preparing for its newest produc-tions, Mary Poppins, and Crazy Shorts. Classes at the new location will start up on Sept. 25.
