Starting the New Year off with a SPLASH!!!
Plenty of spectators were out to cheer on the participants.

Our Community- 2014 in Review
From the Desk of Mayor
Roy Avis
2014 was a year ripe with
challenges for our Corporation
and our citizens.
It is encouraging that the year
appears to be ending on a high
note with the decision to heat
the kraft mill in the interests of
asset protection and the production of a heart warming
video by the folks at Tim Hortons that showcases the enduring spirit of our community.
Our foothold within the forest
industry was abruptly interrupted (and I stress interrupted
not ended) when one week
prior to the anniversary of 100
years of paper making, Resolute announced the closure of
the mill facility. This announcement had an immediate
impact on direct jobs at the facility, indirect jobs within our
economy and the business of
the Town Corporation. In addition to the closure announcement, Council was dealing
with a massive ($9.2 million)
reduction in assessment for the
mill that would impact every
homeowner and business in the
community. Our Council and
administration faced these
challenges head on and worked
diligently with a firm resolve.
Compounding the challenges
with the paper mill was a year
of unprecedented weather conditions. The winter brought an
extended period of severe temperatures and heavy snowfall. I
am proud of the response of
our Public Works department
to fight the snow and respond
to a large number of frozen
water lines. I must also note
our appreciation for the consideration of the residents during
th is time. The spring thaw
brought record water levels and
the continuing threat of additional rainfall prompted the
declaration of an emergency
within our community. I must
note the dedication and effectiveness of our community
emergency management group
preparing our community for a
"worst case scenario". Once
again the spirit of Fort Frances
shone through as countless volunteers came out to quickly
sandbag the most vulnerable
areas within our community.
On a positive note, our Economic Development Advisory
Committee worked hard to
help redefine our community in
conjunction with the Town and
Rainy River Future Development Corporation. One of the
most rewarding initiatives was
a branding exercise where the
Town adopted the "Boundless"
theme as our new brand. The
branding exercise also helped
identify the numerous opportunities related to our unique location. We are a gateway to
Canada and Northwestern Ontario. To the east we are on the
edge of the Canadian Shield,
while to our immediate west,
the prairies begin. This past
year, we attempted to seize on
the opportunity to market our
community at the international
border, by entering into an
agreement with the provincial
government to lease the vacant
Ontario Tourist Information
Centre.
One of the most enriching experiences the Town had this
year was partnering with the
area First Nations and the district municipalities to advocate
for a change to how our forest
is managed. Our area communities want to see a more inclusive
model
of
forest
management that gives all
communities a say and is not
controlled by a single entity.
We believe this is the best way
to ensure that existing and po-

tential forest enterprises can access affordable fibre and share
in the benefits of the forest.
Looking forward to 2015, we
are cautiously optimistic. Resolute is heating the mill in the
interests of asset protection. All
indications are that our continued lobbying efforts are finding
success and the government is
listening. There continues to be
interest shown in the mill by
prospective buyers. We will
work with the government and
Resolute to help facilitate any
potential purchase. We must not
lose hope! We must also continue to be available to work
with the folks at New Gold for
the exciting mining project
within our district.
I am looking forward to working with our new Council and I
would like to thank the citizens
for re-electing me. I will strive
to ensure that Council and administration gives the community the best we have to offer.

Muskies
Rethinking type 2 diabetes
It's time to stop blaming individuals for poor eating choices, and move toward community action
Journalist H.L. Mencken
wrote that "for every complex
problem there is a solution that
is clear, simple and wrong."
That observation aptly describes a prevailing attitude toward type 2 diabetes, which
characterizes diabetes as a
problem that could clearly be
fixed if people would simply
move more and eat less.
Such a suggestion ignores
much of what is known about
the causes of the most prevalent and rapidly growing form
of diabetes in Canada, and
places an unwarranted burden
of blame on those affected by
it.
Type 2 diabetes is a complex
problem with roots in genetics,
the environment and individual behavioural choices. It is a
condition that runs in families
and few individuals diagnosed
with type 2 diabetes do not
have at least one relative who
is affected. It is also more
prevalent in certain population
groups, most notably First Nations.
For some of those who carry
a potent genetic risk for diabetes, no amount of physical
fitness or healthy eating will
protect them from developing
the disease.
A second, less appreciated
contributor to the growing diabetes epidemic is the role of
the environment, specifically
factors such as the walkability
of neighbourhoods, food security and local access to healthrelated facilities and services.
Recent research in Toronto
has demonstrated that, all else
being equal, men living in the
least walkable parts of the city
are 32 per cent more likely to
develop diabetes than those
living in the most walkable
neighbourhoods. Similar results were found in women,
with risk increases of 24 per
cent for long-term residents
and 67 per cent for recent arrivals.
It is also true that for people
who are at risk of developing
diabetes, behavioural choices
that promote obesity increase
that risk. Improving the diet
and physical activity level of
persons at high risk has been
shown to reduce the risk by
nearly 60 per cent.
Studies documenting the impact of behavioural changes
are noteworthy because small
changes in weight - on average, a loss of only 5 to 10 per
cent - have significant benefits. Such findings have been
widely promoted by public
health agencies and practitioners in an attempt to empower
individuals to reduce their risk
of developing diabetes. However, over-emphasizing the
importance of weight reduction may have contributed to
unbalanced messaging to the
public around the causes of the
disease. It's time to right the
balance.
To simply blame individual
behavioural choices as the root
cause of the diabetes epidemic
does a disservice to those with
the disease by creating stigma
(a stigma which can even spill
over to those with type 1 diabetes, a disease that it is not
linked to obesity).
But there is an even greater
danger with a simplistic understanding of diabetes that focuses
exclusively
on
individual choice - it diverts
attention and resources from
other approaches which may
be more effective at addressing the diabetes epidemic.
It is projected that by the
year 2020, one in three Canadians will have either diabetes
or pre-diabetes, a statistic that
crystalizes the need for more
emphasis on prevention, and
illustrates why individual interventions alone are unlikely
to be enough.
We can turn to Finland for
inspiration.
In the late 1960s, North
Karelia, a province in Finland,
was found to have the world's
highest documented rate of
cardiovascular death among
middle-aged men. In response,
provincial
representatives
signed a petition to the Finnish
government for urgent assistance to reduce the high burden of disease. Within a year,
a multi-stakeholder community-based approach engaged
food retailers, the food products industry and even the
agricultural sector where, for
example, a drop in demand for
high fat milk products was
managed by supporting dairy
farmers to become berry farmers.
What was the outcome?
Over the next three decades,
death rates from heart disease
fell by 80 per cent and significant reductions were also seen
in rates of stroke and cancer.
This comprehensive approach
that sought to address the
whole population had a remarkable impact.
Can this experience be reproduced in Canada? There will
be a number of challenges, but
perhaps the first step is to effectively confront the misconception that diabetes is
exclusively the fault of those
who eat too much and move
too little.
Diabetes is a complicated
problem and that simple response has delayed real action.

the team also went to an NHL
game and saw the Minnesota
Wild take on the Toronto
Maple Leafs.
The Muskie Girls next game
is against the Dryden Eagles

Dennis Bruyere racks the balls for a game of 8-ball against
his nephew Nick Hunter.
By: Teresa Hazel
It’s been quite a few years
since Fort Frances has had a
pool hall but that’s no longer
the case since Roger Wickstrom opened the doors of
Player Vibe Billiards and
Gaming at 520 Scot Street
(across from Safeway and beside Stan’s Carpet and Drapery.)
The entertainment centre
boasts three 4’ x 9’ nine-ball
pool tables as well as two standard bar size 4’ x 8’ tables.
Wickstrom reports that he is
also planning to add a 9 x 12’
Snooker table in the near future.
In addition to the pool tables,
there are 12 gaming consoles
featuring X-Box 1, X-Box
360, Play Station 3 and 4 and
Wii. There is also a Rock Band
unit set up and a foosball table.
The entertainment centre
serves snacks and refreshments including hot dogs, na-
chos and cheese, chips, beef
jerky and peanuts. It is not licensed to serve alcohol but
rather is a place for all ages to
enjoy some fun and entertainment. (Note: Roger guarantees
me that the hot dogs with
cheese are just as good as the
ones served by the late Len
Duffy and Butch Wyder who
both owned and operated
Sportsmen’s Billiards back in
the day. I assure him I will be
back soon to determine that.
Stay tuned…)
So what motivated this business idea?
“My business partner and I
were out fishing and thinking
about ideas and we decided on
a pool hall. There hasn’t been
one here for a long time”, answers Wickstrom.
“We figured we’d do something for family and kids. People like to shoot pool but not
everyone wants to go to the
bar to do it”, he added.
Nick Hunter gets ready to break for a game against his
uncle.

very temporary overflow but
we are hoping it will make do
until spring since this task requires moving a whole bunch
of equipment in the well
house. As usual this stuff always appears when the temperatures drop. The best part
of that day was my annual
Christmas visit with my girlfriend and her kids from town.
Even though they are only in
town (Fort Frances) everyone
is so busy that we don’t get to
see each other nearly enough
but the best part is - we can
visit endlessly for hours!
Again the following day I
found myself challenged with
another farm problem. Unlike
the water issues this one was
unfixable. One of my cows
aborted twins and they were
far too early to live. My cows
are still a fair distance from the
house but as I went outside to
head for my walk and to check
on my herd of cows I could
hear a cow bawling - and I
knew right then something
was up. Most likely the twins

Happy 2015 to everyone! If
nothing else, 2015 has brought
us some very winter like
weather with both snow and
cold reaching us. We seemed
to coast right through December but now this normally long
month of January is proving to
be a little more stubborn.
I found 2014 to be a very
challenging year and was
looking forward to it being behind us and moving on to a
better New Year. I awoke one
day last week to a fuse blown
in the barn. This left a frozen
barn, one water bowl frozen,
sheep water frozen and the
tractor cord with no power. So
as I changed the fuse and
thought I would leave things to
warm up on their own for
awhile, we discovered a broken fitting and water spraying
everywhere. With some difficulty and some cold hands we
did get that changed. Of
course that leads me to discovering my overflow for the
flowing well seemed to have a
crack in the pipe as well. We
ended up having to put in a

The Bookworm Sez by Terri Schlichenmeyer
“While Beauty Slept” by Elizabeth Blackwell
Once upon a time…
Everybody knows that’s how
a good fairy tale begins. Once
upon a time – and then the evil
witch arrives, chaos ensues,
horses and carriages, something-something, the prince
whisks in and saves the
princess, The End.
Everyone knows that’s how
it goes. But it doesn’t – and in
the book “While Beauty
Slept” by Elizabeth Blackwell,
the truth is finally told.
Elise Dalriss was quite dismayed.
Her beloved great-granddaughter, Raimy, was surely
entertaining, acting out all the
parts of a fairy tale for her
young siblings, and the children were simply enthralled.
Someday, Raimy would be a
great actress but Elise was
troubled.
The girl had the story all
wrong.
Once upon a time, as Elise
knew was true, a handsome
king and his beautiful queen
lived inside a grand fortress
surrounded by the village of
St. Elsip . The castle was large
in young Elise’s imagination
then but, as the daughter of
peasants, she seldom ventured
into the village and had never
been inside castle walls though she knew her mother
had, long ago.
What was it like in the castle? Elise pestered her mother
for an answer, never believing
she’d see it herself. She knew
a secret about her own birth,
but she also knew that peasant
girls didn’t mix with royalty.
Still, when her mother died of
the pox, Elise heeded her last
words and went in search of
work in the castle.
To her surprise, she was
hired immediately.
For many months, she
worked diligently, absorbing
all she could about life devoted to the Royal Family. She
also learned that Queen
Lenore cried almost every
morning, and that gossip
spread quickly behind castle
walls, so she kept mum - a discretion that garnered the trust
of the Queen, who requested
Elise as a personal attendant.
As the years passed, Elise
proved herself essential to the
Queen’s court.
She had so many memories
of her time behind castle
walls: special friendships, the
birth of Princess Rose, falling
in love. Her loyalty had kept
her at the Queen’s side. Her
wits kept little Rose safe. But
when war broke out in a faraway land and evil strode
across the drawbridge, could
she protect the kingdom?
Happily ever after? Once
upon a time, that was possible
but the story’s a little different
in “While Beauty Slept.”
Author Elizabeth Blackwell
takes a classic fairy tale, gives
it new characters with rich
lives inside a bustling castle,
and then she delivers a fierce
twist with lightly-modern
touches. That may sound like
too much of a departure from
the story we’ve all grown up
with but Blackwell surely
makes it work, managing to
keep it all within the very
basic confines of the Grimm
Brothers’ original.
That kept my pages turning,
and I think it’ll satisfy you
ever-after, too. So grab “While
Beauty Slept” but don’t wait –
if you’ve wanted to be a
princess, if you love a good
jousting tale, or crave a very
well-done Medieval-ish novel,
then your Once Upon a Time
is now.

pleaded guilty and was fined
$1,500 for importing live fish
into Ontario for use as bait.
Court heard that on September 24, 2014, Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry
conservation officers contacted Bulik after receiving information from Canada
Border Services Agency. Officers at the Fort Frances Bridge
port of entry found Bulik to
have a total of 570 live minnows inside two plastic jerry
cans in his boat, next to four
other jerry cans containing
fuel. Upon investigation, conservation officers learned that
Bulik bought the baitfish in
Minnesota and was on his way
to fish Rainy Lake. U.S. Customs and Border Protection
officers at the International
Falls port of entry had advised
Canada Border Services
Agency that they suspected
Bulik transferred live minnows into jerry cans before
driving across the International Bridge to Ontario.

“I can do it…I can do it” seems to be the expression on

Graeme Kitt was flying high as he leapt into Rainy Lake
with his teacher Mr. Michaud to raise money for a trip to
Montreal, Quebec. (You can imagine the resulting splash
from this jump!)
And then they waited as Nicole Gray and Naomi Danco
jumped with not quite as much enthusiasm.
Like father, like son – Isaac Firth and his dad Stewart have
the same jumping form (notice their legs).
Dale Gill, President of the Voyageur Lions Club jumped
with fine form into the freezing cold water.
Freddy Krueger, who usually scares others seemed a
little frightened himself.
