A farmhouse fire in Bradford West Gwillimbury kept firefighters busy for several hours on May 14.

No one was injured in the 8 a.m. fire on Yonge Street, between lines 11

and 12, just south of Bradford Green-houses Garden Gallery, according to Bradford fire. Innisfil and New Tecumseth fire departments sent trucks to help fight the blaze.

A vacant, two-storey brick home was destroyed by the fire.

According to Innisfil fire’s Deputy

Chief Tom Raeburn, Innisfil firefight-ers helped shuttle water to the scene in tanker trucks.

The road near the blaze was closed for several hours until the scene was cleared. This is the sec-ond fire at that location in less than two months, sparking interest by

the Ontario Fire Marshal’s office and South Simcoe Police.

Bradford fire Chief Kevin Gallant says that SSP has now taken over any further investigations into the incident.

Eight men and three women are facing drug charges after raids in Barrie, Bradford and Oro-Medonte on May 12.

Barrie Police, South Sim-coe Police and OPP were all involved in the six-month cocaine investigation, which culminated in last Thurs-day’s raids.

Officers seized more than seven kilograms of cocaine along with four vehicles, cash, electronics, cellphones and drug para-phernalia. Police believe the street value of the drugs and property is more than $500,000.

The suspects were charged with drug traf-ficking, possession for the purpose of trafficking and cocaine possession.

In the fall of 2013, Ben Simon and his fam-ily experienced a devastating loss.

Without warning, Simon’s father, Steve, passed away suddenly from an aggressive form of cancer. Within two weeks of diagno-sis, he was gone and a large piece of Simon seemingly went with him.

Though he tried to remain strong for his mom, Laura and sister Kira, the once vibrant young man found himself stuck between a rock and a hard place, unable to compre-hend what has happened. Until, that is, he reconnected with an old friend.

That friend came in the form of music.During his high school days, Simon had

taken guitar lessons, something he connect-ed with immediately, allowing him to form a true passion for the instrument.

He began teaching friends and family to earn a little bit of extra money. Over time, however, Simon admits he lost touch with teaching once he began his post-secondary education at Trent University.

And then came the loss of his father. Despite support from family and those close to him, including girlfriend and best friend Shayna, Simon needed another outlet to express his emotions.

So, he put pen to paper and began turning those emotions into lyrics.

“I only used to write a song or two every, I’d say, three months or so. And they were never really anything I thought much of,” said Simon.

“But when I had that pent up anger, it all flowed into songs. I just kept writing, I couldn’t stop.”

Within a couple of months, Simon began to feel more at peace and had rekindled a deep love for playing guitar in a way he never could have imagined. By October 2014, Simon was celebrating the release of his first album, The Reckoning, with the help of Har-ley Butt of Acrylic Recording.

Since then, Simon worked diligently on school and music until his recent graduation from Trent.

Now, Simon has decided to dedicate all of his time to his music, even registering his very own guitar teaching business, which has seen immense success since it began at the beginning of May.

“All of my time is spent on music. I have a great mix of students, of all ages and genders, and I believe that helps make me a better teacher,” he said.

Simon’s guitar lessons, email [email protected] or call 905-775-8832.

“The journey has helped me become more confident. There is nothing that makes me happier than doing this.”

But through it all, Simon has kept his father in mind. Though losing his biggest role model was one of the hardest things he’s ever

experienced, Simon says the death of his dad helped shape him into who he is today.

“After his death, I turned to what I knew best. And something amazing has come out of it. I thank my dad every day for what he has given me.”

Simon is now focused on his new business and the production of his second album, which he hopes to release soon. He plans to stay in Bradford and raise a family of his own one day, just as his parents did.

“Bradford is my home and I’d like to stay here. I have a lot of great memories in this town and it’s filled with a lot of wonderful people.”


Bright lights, a big stage and hun-dreds of spectators filled the Bradford and District Memorial Community Centre on May 15 for the York-Simcoe Youth Music Festival.

Fourteen youth bands blew the crowd away with their immense talent and showmanship, sharing their music and passion with anyone willing to listen.

In partnership with the Bradford Lions Club and the Town of BWG, the event welcomed more than 300 visitors and dozens of local vendors from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The performers, who ranged from ages 12 to 18, made up the following bands: Wanderlust, The Fractured, The Spencer MacKenzie Band, Standby, Slow Towns, imply Put, Louisa and the Planets, Fuel the Riot, Locklyn Tomassi, Owen Misener, Colin Salter & Meg Rowen, The MacSween Sisters, Taylor McKinnon and Leah DeGrandis.

One of Bradford’s own and finest musi-cians, Cara Lea of the Cara Lea Band, stood in as the master of ceremonies, introducing each act, while keeping the crowd going in between sets.

The unique festival provided youth with the opportunity to perform on a full size concert stage, in an arena, with a professional sound and lighting engineer, encouraging them to pursue their passion in front of family, friends and peers of all skill levels.

On May 27, Bradford Family Dentistry will host its sixth annual Dentistry From the Heart event, beginning at 8 a .m.

Free cleanings, fillings and extractions will be given in a first-come, first-served basis to residents who are unable to afford it on an annual basis.

Dentistry From the Heart started in 2001, when Dr. Vincent Monticciolo of Tampa, Florida, decided it was time to give back to the community to provide aid to the grow-ing number of Americans without dental insurance.

The free event has grown to include more than 200 annual events nationwide and around the world. More than 80,000 people have now been served.

It has become a very popular event here in BWG, so it is suggested that interested par-ticipants line up in the early hours of the day to ensure they receive dental care.

Bradford Family Dentistry is at 76 Holland Street West. For more information, email Andrew Hamilton at [email protected] or call 905-775-5307.

How can hydro rates go up when use is down?

Re: Wynne leads in incompetency, letter to the editor by Allan Bowman, April 28: bit.ly/1WBwrnU

Bowman asks about the auditor gen-eral’s report on hydro and our hydro rates. I agree with him and would like to know what happened to that report. The auditor general reported taxpayers had overpaid Ontario Hydro thousands, millions, if not billions of dollars in hydro fees. What ever happened to that report and was anything ever done regarding it?

We heard about it one day and then it vanished. If we overpaid by that much, maybe we should all be getting credits on our bills or not even getting bills. How can rates actually continue to climb even if we use less hydro because weather was warmer?

Maybe the government should be dropping rates when the weather is colder. I could go on, but won’t.

The only other thing I would like an answer to is this: How is it that a property owner still receives hydro delivery charges when the hydro was turned off for the winter and not being used?

Gail CormanEast Gwillimbury

Storey, schmorey, it’s time to grow uphe province is mov-ing to expand Ontar-io’s Greenbelt.

That’s good news as the proposed

changes, if adopted, will see municipalities build more com-pact communities with homes, schools, shops, parks, jobs and other vital amenities all within a convenient walking or transit distance.

With intensification will come increased density, espe-cially around our major transit corridors and hubs, which means we can expect to see residential towers become much more prevalent in our urban centres. The hope is to keep growth contained to protect more greenspace and farmland.

The province’s message is clear: it’s time to grow up.

That’s not meant as admon-ishment of anyone in particular — although it certainly would seem an apt chastisement if directed at some of those employing hyperbolic rhetoric any time a building taller than two storeys is even contem-plated — but rather a reminder of today’s reality. It’s not 1950 and we, as a society, can’t con-tinue to manufacture sprawling communities consisting of a seemingly endless sea of single-detached homes utterly devoid

of local employment and just blissfully ignore how unsus-tainable they are.

The population of the Greater Golden Horseshoe is expected to rise by four million people over the next 25 years and, as such, it behooves us to develop an approach that doesn’t involve more sprawl. It’s not a path we want to go down.

The official opposition has been supportive of the idea of growing the Greenbelt thus far, although there have been some critics. For example, a representative from the Ontario Home Builders’ Association was quoted last week as raising concerns about seeing more condominiums and townhous-es built and the risk of restrict-ing housing choice.

This is an all-too-common refrain from developers who would prefer to see the status quo continue. The changes may see fewer new detached and semi-detached homes built in the future, but it’s a safe bet that many people would choose a condo or townhouse in a community in which they can live, work and play over a detached house in an area requiring a lengthy commute to the office and back each day.

Ultimately, we’ve run out of time and room for sprawl. We can do better; we must.

TStop bubble wrapping children

Re: Blame parents for out-of-shape kids, editorial, May 12: bit.ly/1TaWnWk

After reading the article on how “active children have better overall health”, I wished that I was more surprised that an article like this was published.

As a child of the ’80s and with two small children, I promote physical activity along-side healthy eating as the basis for health. Parents, in their pursuit to keep children safe, are only limiting their future poten-tial. Moderate risk-taking is an important part of childhood. Climbing high trees, jumping off swings mid-air and riding a bike full speed are all things that, yes, can cause injury from time to time.

What many parents are overlooking while bubble wrapping their children is the psychological and physical benefits of allowing risk taking.

Children gain self esteem and an inner guiding system that tells them when they have gone past their own individual limit. This guiding system then serves them as they grow into teenagers and, then, adult-hood. Children are resilient and amazing people. Let them shine and you will be in wonder of all they can do.

Regarding A family of deer killed on Green Lane in East Gwil-limbury May 15: bit.ly/1V6w6rJ

Keith Phillips — Council has ruined a nice neighbourhood. Just have a look at Mount Rushmore viewed from Mount Albert Road and Yonge Street.The developers and the council don’t care a lot about the taxpayers, just cutting ribbons and photo ops. Exception: James Young!

Sandy Dugdale-Hessel — So sad. We’re kicking and pushing the wild-life out of their homes. They have nowhere to go, and then are killed on the roads. I hope the people in the vehicles are unharmed. It’s a shocking thing to have an animal run in front of you and be hit.

Jen King — If only we could moni-tor how wildlife is displaced with all the clear cutting. It might have raised consciousness against this breakspeed rate of development.

Janice Mellary — So sad. The poor man driving the car. Unfortunately, I have to agree with Keith Phillips. We have been in our home almost 5 years. Our builder is dumping construction debris on the lot across from us and storing items that won’t even be used here as all homes are completed. The lot across us still is not graded and sodded. (Even though phase 2 was supposed to be priority and staff said in their memo that they would monitor the debris.(this was in 2013)....well you know that did not happen.

Written by Alexander Beadie, Lawyer

Whendissolvingacommonlawrelationship,the division of property is not assumed tobe equal as is the case with a marriage.

A partner in a common law relationshipmust prove a contribution to the acquisition,preservation, maintenance or improvementof an asset belonging to the other partner tomake a claim on it.

The division of assets depends on aconsideration of what is fair. Some factorsto be considered are the length of therelationship, whether there are children,the roles of the partners in the relationship,whether they had a common plan to buildwealth together, whether their financeswere integrated and so on. A determinationof these factors will assist in concludingwhether the partners to the relationshipwere engaged in a “joint family venture” intheir dealings with each other.

If you have an interest in, or concernsabout the division of property in a commonlaw relationship, the lawyers at GalbraithFamily Law are here to help you clarify those concerns and work withyou to develop a plan of action to address and resolve them if need be.Our offices are conveniently located in Barrie, Newmarket and Orillia toserve you.

The show must go on.Despite uncertainly surrounding this

year’s 38th annual Marsh Mash at Springdale Christian Reformed Church in Bradford, fol-lowing a personal loss for organizer Ian Craig, races continued on May 14 as scheduled.

Though bouts of rain kept canoe and kay-akers a little damp throughout the day, help from the Ontario Marathon Canoe Kayak Racing Association ensured that everything went along as smoothly as possible.

The association announced its modified involvement with the Marsh Mash earlier this month, after the town released informa-

tion surrounding the event’s cancellation of all recreational and amateur races, with only the qualifying races for the ICF Canoe World Marathon to be held that day.

But with help from volunteers and long-time supporters, the canal was filled with enthusiastic racers of all ages for a full day of fun and competition.

People’s faces also lit up upon the sight of Craig, who was able to attend the event. He took some time to thank all people involved for ensuring that the popular event was not cancelled.

The association was also involved in run-ning the youth canoe races at the same loca-tion, May 6.

Managing the future of forests

To most people, the SimcoeCounty Forest is a sanctuary– a place to enjoy the greatoutdoors in the heart ofcentral Ontario – but it’s also aworking forest.

Revenues from the sale of itstimber not only cover expensesand fund the purchase of moreland, it means no taxpayers’money is needed to sustainthis valuable resource.

With more than 32,000 acresof forests spread over 150parcels of land that vary in sizefrom 13 acres to more than3,500 acres, forestry staff havedeveloped a detailed, long-range operating plan aimedat keeping the forests strongand vibrant. According to thatplan, approximately 1,200to 1,500 acres of the SimcoeCounty Forest are thinnedeach year.

While it may seem counter-intuitive, removing treesfosters growth and improvesthe health of the remainingtrees. It’s a bit like weeding agarden, said Marc Guest ofMidland’s Guest Logging, oneof the many local operationsreliant on timber culled fromthe county’s forests.

“Trees grow better if theyhave more space to grow,” saidGuest. “Money from timbersales, obviously, is importantto the county, but the realvalue is in the thinning. Thehealth of the forest is what’smost important and (forester)Graeme Davis and the Countyof Simcoe take a long-termview. They do a really goodjob of managing theforest.”

And that is critical to loggerslike Guest, who estimates one-third of the wood his companyultimately uses is purchasedfrom the county.

Timber is typically sold bythe county in three lots peryear – spring, summer and fall.The lots are usually sold to thehighest bidder.

“We go out to the forest,where the treeshave alreadybeen markedby the county…and we walkthe propertyto assess thequality oftimber. Basedon what wesee and our experience, wedevelop a price and put in abid,” said Guest. “The beautyof working with the countyis they have excellent accessroads, we get one calendaryear to harvest the timber and

they’re great to work with.”According to Davis, it’s a

tried and tested process.“We work with operators

who have the experience andthe right equipment to do thejob properly,” he said. “Wedepend on them to do thework that allows us to growhealthy trees and they dependon us to produce high-quality

timber. Therehas to be valuein what they areextracting butour primaryconsideration isto keep the foresthealthy.”

While Guestsays the quality

of timber is good, it’s not thebest on the market – by design.

“The county would nevermark the best-quality timber,”he explained. “They alwaysbypass the very best treesbecause that’s your seed stock...if we took the best trees everytime, all the poor, crookedtrees would remain and that

could ruin the woodlot.”However, it’s still

desirable

timber, said Guest, a hardwoodlogger who is always on thelookout for good hard maple,soft maple, red oak and whiteash – his primary saw-logspecies. Whenever his bid issuccessful, he is on site duringthe operation, sorting thefelled trees into piles that maythen be transported to severaldifferent customers.

“Let’s say I bought 1,000trees, 600 may be for fuelwood and 400 may be forsawmilling,” he said. “I lookfor good veneer logs first,then good sawmill logs, thengood pallet logs and the restbecomes fire wood.”

For the county, revenuefrom timber sales, which hasaveraged about $1.4 millionannually over the past fiveyears, is reinvested intoforestry operations and fundsthe acquisition of additionalforest lands.

“That revenue is importantto us, but on top of that, it’scontributing to the localeconomy,” said Davis, whoestimates the harvesting of

timber from countyforests creates

150 to 200 direct jobs.Some of the funds generated

by timber sales have also beeninvested into research meantto aid the forests.

“We have supported differenttypes of research projects thatwe felt would benefit us in thelong run, and contribute toimproved forestry practices”said Davis. “The county haspartnered with differentresearchers, one, for example,who was studying red pine.In return, we receive a lot ofvaluable information.”

But there are alwayschallenges and, in recentyears, invasive species suchas the emerald ash borer havebecome a concern.

In 2011, the county began todevote increased resources toinvasive species management;much headway has beenmade in the interveningyears. To date, more than300 infestations have beenmanaged; several havebeen eradicated completelywhile others continue to bemonitored and evaluated.

Invasive species includeany plant, animal, or otherorganism that becomesestablished in an area outsideof its natural range.

Without natural predators orcontrol agents, invasive speciesadapt and spread quickly;some cause significant damageto natural areas. Davis said thecounty increasingly deals withinvasive plants such as garlicmustard, dog-strangling vineand buckthorn.

“Managing invasive specieshas become a more significantpiece of our work and it’simportant work, because we’recommitted to protecting theenvironment and ensuring thelong-term sustainability of the

forests,” said Davis.

Withmore than 32,000 acres of forests spread over 150 parcels of land, the County of Simcoe hasdeveloped a detailed, long-range operating plan aimed at keeping the forests strong and vibrant.

County of Simcoe’slong-term plan isvital to resource’svibrant growth

Four-time Olympian


Until May 21, South Simcoe Police will celebrate Police Week with other services across Ontario.

As a means of showing the public just what SSP is all about and how its mem-bers keep the community safe, an afternoon of tours, displays and demonstrations took place at the south division along Melbourne Drive in Bradford on May 16.

This year’s theme, Discover Policing For Safer Communities, encouraged Bradford families to check out a number of education-

al and fun elements within SSP, including fin-gerprinting and a canine unit demonstration by Const. Brett Jacques and police service dog, Chase.

Const. Carl Jarvis from the traffic and marine unit was also on hand to show off his sweet ride – the SSP motorcycle. Various other officers, including Chief Rick Beazley and Deputy Chief Andrew Fletcher, explained the elements of equipment and skills of the emergency response unit, prisoner trans-port, cruisers and forensic team.

A similar event for Police Week will take place at the north station in Innisfil on May 19 from 3 to 7 p.m.

Jack’s main dedication was to his family - he always focussed on what would be best for them in everything that he did. His other love was his music. Starting while he was in the RCAF, he enjoyed 60 years as an amateur musician with the Newmarket Citizen’s and Alliston bands as well as his own jazz band - “The Zephyr’s”.Special thanks go to the caring staff at Southlake who were a signifi cant help during his last days.
