IT’S TAPPING TIME! – Education Programmer, Julie MacDonald (right), and co-op student from Centre Dufferin District High School, Jamie Nancekivell, serve up maple taffy at the Dufferin County Museum and Archives during the ‘Maple Syrup Festival’ last week.
DCMA welcomes spring with ‘Maple Syrup Festival’
BY WENDY GABREK
Last week, during March Break, the Dufferin County Museum & Archives (DCMA) held
its annual ‘Maple Syrup Festival’ – welcoming
spring, and honouring the “flow of things”.
Participants of the event were invited to explore the history and science of making maple
syrup by visiting six learning stations, set up inside the museum and outside, in the sugar bush.
The event, aimed at allowing residents to
discover how Dufferin County pioneers made
syrup and how it is produced today, was very
well attended. Maple syrup related games,
crafts, and storybooks were on hand to browse
through, and maple fudge was available to sample just outside of the museum’s Tea Room.
The six stations included:
1. The Tree. Participants were encouraged to
“find out how to identify the sugar maple tree”
– as making maple syrup starts with the sugar
maple trees. It has the most sugar in its sap of
any tree.
2. Start of the season. The passport challenge:
“to learn how to tap a maple to harvest its sap”.
When the sugaring season starts, it is time to
tap the tree. It needs to be done right so the tree
does not get hurt.
3. Collecting the sap. “Find out how sap was
collected by pioneers and how it is collected today”. Collecting sap is hard work. Sometimes
buckets have to be empties two or three times a
day. It is important not to waste a drop of sap.
4. Tools required. The passport challenge:
“Find out what tools pioneers and First Nations
used to boil sap into syrup”. When sap arrives
at the sugar camp or sugar shack, it is time to
bring it to a boil. Heating up the sap takes away
water and leaves behind a liquid with more sugar.
5. Bottling. “Find out how maple syrup is
classified in Ontario. When sap has been turned
into syrup it is ready to be graded, bottled,
labeled and sold. Real maple syrup will say
“pure” on the bottle.
6. Maple Sugar. “Find our how maple sugar is
made”. Pioneers liked to make maple sugar because it would keep longer than syrup and was
easy to transport for sale.
Once participants finished visiting the indoor
stations, they were welcomed to head outside to
the sugar bush and watch sap turn to syrup in
the cauldron and enjoy a delicious maple taffy
treat. Yum!

Mayor presents Mike Fazackerley
with Award of Excellence

Mayor Ken Bennington (left) presented Mike Fazackerley with a Community Excellence Award at
Council on March 23rd. Mr. Fazackerley has served on the Minor Hockey Board for five years as
well as coaching.
BY MARNI WALSH
Monday night’s Council meeting started with
a celebration as local resident Mike Fazackerley accepted a Community Excellence Award
from the Town of Shelburne. Mayor Ken Bennington presented the award consisting of a
certificate commemorating the occasion and a
medal of distinction.
Mr. Fazackerley was nominated for the award
by Chris La Form the President of the Shelburne
Minor Hockey Association. La Form reported
that Mike Fazackerley had been a part of the
Shelburne Minor Hockey Board for five years
and had coached young players previous to that
commitment. In a letter to Council, Chris La
Form wrote:
“Mike has played an important role in establishing many initiatives in regards to financial
stability, player development, sportsmanship
and respect for team mates, opponents and
guests alike. My personal feeling is that Mr.
Fazackerley embodies what the spirit of this
award stands for and would make a most deserving recipient.”
Mayor Bennington, who has also been involved with the Shelburne Minor Hockey
League for a number of years, coaching and
refereeing games since 1997, said he recalled,
not so long ago, when there was much concern amongst the association and praised Mr.
Fazackerley, saying, “Under your leadership
you have brought back stability.”
Mr. Fazackerley thanked Council saying that
the award was unexpected, “but very appreciated.” He spoke about the renewed enthusiasm
for the sport of hockey in Shelburne and how
great it was to see the stands filling up to watch
the games.
Council resumed in Chambers with a delegation from Youth for Christ. The charitable organization which manages “The Door” Youth
Centre in Shelburne came to introduce themselves to new Council members and update the
Town on “how the Door has been progressing
since moving to the new building on Owen
Sound Street. They asked for financial support
from the Town to help them with a short fall in
funding. Council made a motion to support the
group with $5000 to help cover bills for 2015.
Auditors from BDO accounting also presented a delegation on the 2014 Financial Statement for the Town of Shelburne. The report was
designed to highlight key elements of the statement as part of BDO’s communication strategy with Council. The statement reviewed the
Town’s financial position, highlighting changes
in capital assets, net debt and financial assets.
Highlights on the “five year financial position”
reported reserves have been increasing steadily
in recent years with an increase in cash available for current use. However, the report also
noted that “capital grants decreased significantly in 2011, resulting in the Municipality having to fund their capital projects through other
means,” such as “long term debt, gas tax funding, and development charges.”

Dear editor:
The failure to move the yardsticks on the
Keystone XL pipeline falls squarely on the
shoulders of Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Mr. Harper’s refusal to implement credible
environmental policy over the past nine years
has deeply damaged Canada’s economic interests and international reputation. His diplomatic miscues on the Keystone file have made
the situation worse.
This $8 billion project would have connected Canadian oil with refineries in the U.S.
Gulf Coast.
That would narrow the discount on the price
of our oil relative to world markets, boosting
our economy and employment.
What should have been a win-win proposition has dragged on for years due to Mr. Harper’s tin ear. He deeply misjudged the President, who had directly linked the approval of
this project to the need for greater action from
Canada on climate change. Instead of addressing President’s legitimate concerns, Mr.
Harper tried to spin and bully to get his way,
spending millions on ads and telling a group
of American businessmen that “you don’t take
no for an answer”.
These tactics did not work on the President
of the United States. This is a failure of one of
a Canadian Prime Minister’s central responsibilities: to get Canadian resources to market.
A failure of this magnitude was unthinkable
between Brian Mulroney and Ronald Reagan,
or between Jean Chrétien and Bill Clinton.
To get projects approved, you need leadership that works well with others. But this
is a Prime Minister who will not meet with
premiers or Indigenous Leaders, who calls
those who want to safeguard the environment
eco-terrorists, and who cancelled the three
amigos conference with Mexico and the United States.
There is a better way. Liberals recognize that
progress depends on regaining public trust. A
Liberal government will work with provinces and territories to establish a pan-Canadian
framework to reduce carbon emissions and
fight climate change. It will give each the flexibility to design their own policies best suited
to their situation to meet these commitments,
including carbon pricing.
With credible environmental policies and
astute diplomacy, Keystone XL can move forward. The sooner, the better.

Liberal Critic for Natural Resources
Ask a psychotherapist
BY ALISON KERR, PH.D
Question: My mother just turned 87 and is still
driving. She’s fiercely independent and has no
intention of giving it up. But the last few times
my sister and I drove with her, we were scared
witless! She kept veering onto the shoulder and
didn’t seem to know where the road was! My
sister said Mom would have run through a stop
sign if she hadn’t yelled. Mom won’t listen to
reason on this and says there’s no problem. I’m
afraid she’s going to kill herself or somebody
else. What should I do?
Answer: It’s so difficult when our parents begin to lose their faculties and become less capable of functioning independently in the world.
Often both they and we wish to deny the reality
of change. However, it’s important to recognize
that after young males, debilitated seniors cause
the most accidents, many of them fatal.
You and your sister are recognizing that your
mother’s abilities as a driver are failing. The
change often appears as a lack of judgment on
the part of the elder. They may sincerely believe
that they’re not impaired and may feel outraged,
diminished or humiliated by the threat of losing
control at the hands of their adult children.
But while compassion and understanding of
our elders predicament is called for, it’s not responsible to let debilitated seniors drive. While
people 80 and older must pass a written test
every two years, they may not be required to
demonstrate their abilities during a road test unless they’ve already had an accident.
Concerned adult children should report their
concerns in writing to the senior’s doctor. This
report should include any near-accidents witnessed along with observations of the elder’s
driving behaviour by passengers. The OPP will
speak with concerned family members and disclose traffic violations and accidents on the senior’s driving record of which family members
may not be aware. This information should be
passed on to the elder’s doctor.

‘Storm’ reunited with his family – two face criminal charges

year old Boxer stolen from a commercial area.
The dog owner let his boxer named Storm out
Missing this? Police
want to hear from you
On Monday March 16th Shelburne Police entered into a mischief investigation in regards to
a complaint about graffiti on a residential fence.
This photo is of a recovered spray paint can
believed to be used to cause the damage along
a laneway. The Shelburne Police is interested in
hearing from anyone who recognizes the paint
can and believes it may have been taken from
their residence or workplace.
Also anyone who knows who caused, or has
heard rumours of who caused this mischief are
encouraged to contact Shelburne Police.
If anyone has any information in relation to
this case or any other criminal activity, they are
encouraged to contact the Shelburne Police Service at 519-925-3312 or anonymously through
Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or
online at www.crimestopperssdm.com
in the area of his workplace, Early’s Machining
on Steeles Street, to go to the washroom. When
Storm didn’t return the owner went looking for
him. Unable to find Storm he started asking
around when he found a witness who advised
they saw the family pet taken into a SUV.
The early investigation included locating and
interviewing witnesses, and viewing local business security video footage.
However the investigation took an interesting
turn as a result of Storm’s family listing him
missing on social media. The pet’s family was
notified by a woman from the London area who
had a Want Ad listed on Kijiji for a purebred
boxer. This woman responded to the ad and
then contacted the pet owner family with a picture of the dog being sold by the third party.
The pet owners were convinced that the dog in
the picture was Storm. The woman from London arranged a meeting to view the dog in the
Proton Station area, northwest of Shelburne on
Friday March 20th.
In the meantime, the pet owner’s family got
a phone call from a person claiming they have
their dog and wanted to be paid for his return.
Shelburne Police accompanied members of
Storm’s family to the pre-arranged meeting
place near Proton Station. As a result Storm
was happily re-united with his family, and the
continuing investigation resulted in two people
from Grey Highlands being arrested.
37 year old Malgorzta Sztylka was arrested
and charged under the Criminal Code with Extortion, and Possession of Property Obtained by
Crime.
67 year old Jerzy Sztylka was arrested and
charged under the Criminal Code with Theft
under $5000 and Possession of Property Obtained by Crime.
The two accused have a first appearance court
Shelburne dog tags
due April 1st
dog to howl or bark excessively, and fail to remove excrement. The fine for all these infractions is $55.
The Shelburne Police regularly responds to
calls about dogs. To effectively and efficiently
deal with these calls the police need to be able
to identify the dogs and their owners. If police
are unable to identify a dog’s owner or home
the only option is to have the dog taken to a
pound.
This is one of the reasons for the town bylaw requiring all dogs to have current dog tags.
These tags need to be renewed every year. The
deadline for 2014 dog tags is April 1st. The
cost of the 1st dog tag is $20. If a second tag
is required the cost is $30 and the third tag is
$80.
Dog owners are also reminded that unless
dogs are fenced in or in a home on private
property, they must be controlled on a leash.
Dogs are not allowed to run free anywhere in
the town of Shelburne including any parks.
It is also the responsibility of dog owners to
clean up all excrement their dogs leave anywhere other than on their own private property.
Here is a list of the by-laws that relate to
dogs in the town of Shelburne: Fail to procure
licence, fail to secure tag to dog, fail to secure
dog by lead, permit dog to run at large, permit
date in April at the Orangeville Court House.
If anyone has any information in relation to
this case or any other criminal activity, they are
encouraged to contact the Shelburne Police Service at 519-925-3312 or anonymously through
Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or

Wrapped in wool, dripping with history
The Wool & Silk Co. has come to town!
Owner Diane Griffith recently took over
the wool store, formerly known as Woolly’s,
on Main Street, Shelburne. The building has
lots of history and was once the Old Bakery,
as well as Silks Bakery.
Dripping in history, this building was the
perfect location for Diane to continue in the
business of wool. She refurbished and gave
the store a new homely, comfortable look,
and outfitted the store with a great variety
of quality fine yarns, that loyal shoppers are
accustomed to – as well as lots of new,
in-stock items.
In fact, the old shelving in the store, which
has been given a face-lift was the old housing
for the baked goods from the previous bakery!
This quaint, colourful small town store is,
“Where beautiful things begin,” said Diane.
Pictured is Leeanne

Every customer that comes through the
door has the same passion, and how lovely to
have something to enjoy and be creative with.
There are ‘Sit & Knits’, classes and even a
Saturday morning knitting group.
The events gives people the chance to get
together with friends, and share interests in
knitting and crocheting.
Also new to the store is the ‘DMC & Cross’
stitch supplies. So be sure to stop in and check
them out.

Steering Committee Members of Youth for Christ were elated with the Town’s support of $5000 to keep “The Door” Youth Centre open in Shelburne for
2015. (Back right to left) Bob Sibeon, Chair Ken Gallinger, (Front) Debbie Harrison and Mona deMann.
for heat, hydro and expenses like any office.
Outside of Council Chambers, the group expressed gratitude to the Rotary Club for a generous donation of $1000 last month, as well as
$250 from Cross Roads Church in Shelburne.
The Door’s golf tournament raised $2,700 in
October and a recent March 7th spaghetti supper raised another $600. On May 2nd the youth
at The Door will present a full course roast beef
dinner and an original play for further funding.
The Door Youth Director, 24 year old Mandy
McCallum, who ministers to the Youth, is paid
separately, raising the money through various
funding connections and supporters.
“Mandy has done a great job in ministry,” says Chair
Ken Gallinger, “She attends the Shelburne Ministerial meetings and has improved communications there.” She also spends two or three days
a week at the high school during lunchtime as
a connection for kids who might want to talk.
At Monday night’s council meeting the Youth
for Christ representatives asked Council to consider funding of $5000 to get the group through
the year. Councillor Wade Mills, who has been
taking strides to form a Youth Committee for
the Town, asked if there were any opportunities
for provincial funding. The group replied there
were not – due to the religious foundation of the
organization.
By Marni Walsh
“The Door,” a Christian Youth drop in centre,
has become a familiar part of Shelburne’s landscape in the last ten years, providing a place for
youth ages 10-18 to socialize in a mentoring
environment. In 2013, they moved from their
mobile unit, a truck often seen at Jack Downey
Park, to the Anglican Church manse for a
“very reasonable” rate. Yearly costs run around
$12000 and the organization has come up short.
March 13th, Youth for Christ representatives
asked the Town of Shelburne for help to keep
“The Door” open.
Bob Sibeon, of the Steering Committee and
a member of Cross Roads Church, spoke for
the group. He reminded the Councillors that
the group had a good history with the Town,
which had supported the purchase of the truck
years ago, and that The Door was “an important
part of the fabric of Shelburne. “We serve kids
who are not being served anywhere else,” said
Sibeon. The group reports that over 90 youth
attend their programs and that numbers are constantly growing as the town expands.
“We have been working towards funding, but
we are falling short,” said Sibeon. The costs of
operating from a permanent location obviously
run much higher than the mobile unit, where the
all-volunteer, charitable organization must pay
Shelburne Youth for Christ is a satellite of
Highland Youth for Christ in Orangeville, one
of “30 independently incorporated chapters
across Canada.” Highland Youth for Christ has
20 working staff, including satellite leaders like
Shelburne’s Mandy McCallum. According to
Debbie Harrison of the Shelburne Youth for
Christ Steering Committee, the organization
was originally created by the Covenant Alliance Church which, according to their Orangeville website, is “a bible believing evangelical church.”
The Shelburne group told Council Monday
night that “everyone is welcome at The Door.”
Outside of Council Chambers, Chair Ken Gallinger told The Free Press the organization does
not force Christianity on the youth – the only
stipulation was for members of the Steering
Committee: they must “accept Christ as their
saviour.” According to Highland’s Youth for
Christ website, the organization’s mission is:
“To participate in the body of Christ in the
responsible evangelism of youth, presenting
them with the person, work and teaching of
Jesus Christ and discipling them into the local
church.”
The representatives did not present mission
statements, financial records or plans to Council; nor was there any in Council discussion
about why Shelburne’s seven local churches
did not fully fund Youth for Christ. Based on
their history with the Town, Council went outside of their budget, and made a motion granting $5000 to the group to help support their
efforts with Shelburne youth for 2015. Council
told representatives they must develop a plan
before approaching Council for further funding. Representatives were elated at the support,
telling reporters, “Council came through just

fantastic; we are really blessed.” Councillor
Randy Chambers was the sole objector to the
motion for granting Youth for Christ the $5000,
saying he had no issues with the group, but as
no finances or plan had been presented he felt
a “responsibility to the tax payers” and that the
“money had not been allocated in the 2015 budget” which had already been passed.

Wolves Midget Rep end season in Port Dover
Photos by Brian Lockhart
The Shelburne Wolves Midget Rep team host the Port Dover Pirates in game three of their best of
five OMHA championship series. The Wolves gave up a 6–5 loss. They travelled to Port Dover on
Sunday (Mar. 22) but came up short losing game four to end the series.
By Brian Lockhart
The Shelburne Wolves Midget rep team ended their season on a high note - with a trip to the
OMHA finals.
They ended the series with a 5–1 loss to Port
Dover on Sunday (Mar. 22) that ended the best
of five championship final series.
The Wolves had a terrific playoff run sweeping their opening round over Mariposa in three
games then going on to the quarter-final and
again were undefeated against Norwood.
Moving into the semi-final round the Wolves
advanced to the final after winning in four
games over South Bruce.
That set up the championship series with the
Port Dover Pirates.
The championship round got underway on
March 13, with the Pirates squeezing out the
Wolves 5–4 in game one at the Centre Dufferin
Recreation Complex.
Game two tied the series when the Wolves
went to Port Dover on March 15, and left with a
3–1 win to make it even.
The series returned to Shelburne on Friday
(Mar. 20) night for game three.
This game was an epic battle when the Pirates
tied the game with 4:45 remaining then got the
go-ahead goal with 2:32 left on the clock.
The first Wolves goal came from Jake Currie.
Showing their tenacity as a team, the Wolves
battled back from a three goal deficit with Port
Dover leading 4-1 in the second frame.
Nate Newmaster took the feed across the net
in the second period to score Shelburne’s second goal.
A scramble in front of the net ended with Jake
Currie popping in the Wolves’ third goal and his
second of the game.
Shelburne forward Nate Newmaster tied the
game at four with a beautiful shot to the top corner of the Port Dover net. The final period was a
battle to score and beat the clock.
Shelburne’s Brandon Richardson got goal
number five and with less than five minutes on
the clock
It was again a tie game when the Pirates responded and scored to make it a 5–5 game.
The game ended with a Pirates goal with 2:32
left on the clock and the series returned to Port
Dover for game four of the series.
The final game was a do-or-die for the Wolves
who battled hard.
The final game loss gave the series and the
championship to Port Dover.
Midget Rep takes silver and thank the
community for tremendous support
It’s been a number of years that we’ve seen so
many fans come out to cheer on a local hockey
team. With standing room only and edge of the
seat excitement for both home games, the Shelburne Community came out in droves to lend
their support to the Midget Rep team. SMHA
President Chris LaForm said “we’re very proud
of the effort that our boys brought forth and it
was incredible to see the support that our community offered. The Town was certainly abuzz
with excitement and it was wonderful to see
that support in attendance numbers at our arena”.
After a close loss in game 3 at home and falling behind 2–1 in the series, the Midget Rep’s
faced Port Dover in their arena for game 4 on
Sunday last. Dover put 2 goals on the board in
the first and Shelburne was able to answer with
1 from Asst. Captain Drew Downey. Despite a
close back and forth game, Dover was able to
hold onto to their lead through the 3rd and 2 late
empty netters sealed the Wolves fate.
Despite the loss, the Shelburne Wolves Midget Rep Team, sponsored by Shelburne Home
Hardware and Bob Currie Masonry, had an incredible series run beating out a variety of tough
Ontario teams both East and West to earn a coveted spot in the OMHA Championship Finals.
“Of course it would have been great to win”,
2015 Shelburne Shooters
Minor Ball Hockey League
said Captain Dean Currie, “but we’re all still
pretty proud to say we made it right through to
the finals. We know our families, our coaches
and the fans were with us the whole way so this
is one season end none of us will ever forget”!
“It really was a pleasure for me, my brother
Nick, Dave Ritchie, Scott Holmes and Brian
McBride to be able to coach the boys this year”,
stated Head Coach Mike Glassford. “They really are a close bunch of players on ice and a
close bunch of friends off ice. We hope this was
just one more season where they are as proud of
each other as we and everyone is of them. We
wish the boys all the best as many move on to
attend college or start their careers. And a special shout-out to Terry Fines, added Glassford.
“Without her, our season wouldn’t have been
near as organized or as enjoyable so thank you
Terry”!
The Midget Rep Team of Dean Currie, Jake
Currie, Drew Downey, Stephen Falls, Isaac
Fazackerley, Nick Fines, Keith Gordanier, Darrin Janke, Eric Johnson, Zack LaForm, Chayse
McCallum, Ty McCallum, Nathan Newmaster,
Brandon Richardson, Lucas Ritchie and Darren
Taylor all wish to say a great big THANK YOU
to their coaches, families, sponsors and supporters for a great 2014-2015 season!
Good job boys! Be proud! We are!

Spring is here and
we rejoice as the sun
melts away the snow
and the Son makes
all things new. Pastor
Don shared announcements and much needed prayer requests. He
then prayed over us,
“Dear Father God,
we pray for malleable hearts, the kind
that seeks to please
you and follows your
guidance, help us
trust your plans for
our lives, help us not
become
impatient
and take matters into
our own hands which
causes strife, in Jesus
name, Amen.”
Today we continue
to learn from the rollercoaster life of Jacob
in Genesis. So far we
have seen the deceiving spirit he had towards his brother and
father, his spiritual
condition was wicked without a relationship with God. Last
week we left off in the
plot of Jacob and his
mother tricking Isaac
to give him the firstborn blessing instead
of Esau. The plan was
set, Rebecca cooked a
meal, disguised Jacob
and he went to deliver
the bowl of deception
to Isaac. Jacob obtained what he wanted, he received the
blessing but at what
cost. (Genesis 27:2729).
Jacob never saw
his mother again, his
mother had heard of
Esau’s plan to seek revenge so she quickly
told him to flee to her
brother’s house, his
Uncle Laban. Once in
Laban’s house the old
adage of what goes
around comes around
fell to him as he was
deceived by his Uncle.
Meanwhile he was
exiled from his family for over 2 decades,
his brother formed
an enemy nation; the
Edomites.
Things
could have been less
troublesome if he and
his mother had waited
for the Lord’s timing
concerning the birthright promise God
had already made in
Genesis 25:23; Although the promise
was made it didn’t
mean he would enjoy
the blessing immediately, it was essential
for him to build a relationship with God
for himself not rely
on the relationship his
father and grandfather
had with the Lord.
God is never caught
by surprise when we
hasten situations; he
uses those circumstances to mold us
into who we need to
be to fit into His glorious plans.
While on his way
to Uncle Laban, Jacob became tired and
set up camp, but his
sleep was disturbed.
In a dream that night,
God came to Jacob
and established his
covenant with him as
he had with Abraham
and Isaac. God was
repurposing Jacob’s
journey, we read later that God changed

Jacob’s name to Israel. After Jacob’s
encounter with God,
he placed his faith in
Him; Jacob was now
part of God’s plan and
made a vow to Him.
You would think making this kind of vow
was enough to ensure
a trouble free life,
but not quite, Jacob
had many lessons to
learn. Once in Haran
in Laban’ house, Jacob fell in love with
his uncle’s daughter
Rachel. Since he did
not have money, he
agreed to work for
7 years in exchange
for her hand in marriage, however Laban
conveniently omitted
the fact that the custom was to marry the
first born daughter
and so on the day he
wed, he was tricked
into marrying Leah,
first lesson learned.
Jacob still wanted Rachel, so Laban again
tricked Jacob into another 7 years of labor
to have her.
He eventually needed to work another
6 years to obtain his
own livestock. I wonder how much Jacob
enjoyed that bowl of
deception.
Jacob was disappointed but God used
it as an opportunity
to teach Jacob about
submission. Jacob had
initially failed to submit to God’s timing
concerning the promise and resorted to
trickery, God needed
to humble Jacob, God
was forming his character. During all this
time God still blessed
Jacob and prospered
him. Jacob became
wealthy and earned
Laban’s trust and respect. Then only then
was Jacob ready to go
home, God prepared
him for the right time
and assured Jacob of
His presence for the
journey back.
Further
ahead
we see that Jacob
is afraid, he feared
Esau may retaliate so
he sent messengers
ahead with a humble
and reverent message.
He was given the feedback that Esau was
coming with an army
of 400! So what now?
Jacob had no choice
but call out to God.
He acknowledged his
unworthiness before
God and he sent his
family away safe fearing for them. Jacob
again was alone, he
struggled with God all
night and begged for
his blessing, he fought
because he would not
surrender all his will
to God, so the Lord
touched Jacob’s hip
and wrenched it out of
place which left Jacob
with a limp the rest of
Page 9
his life, perhaps as a
reminder to not resist
God but always submit.
Beloved, Jacob was
heading the wrong
way far from God
and God met him and
redirected his path.
How many of us need
that today? We can
all agree that patience
doesn’t come easy
surrendering is not
natural even for us
believers, we struggle with waiting on
the Lord’s timing and
want to hold on to
things that are harmful to our spiritual life.
How many of us have
been like Jacob and
took matters in our
own strength, devised
a way to make something happen sooner
rather than wait, how
did that work out?
What has God had to
do to finally get our
attention? We need
to be a people of faith
in God, trusting his
timing and obeying
his instructions for
our lives. Friends it
is not enough to hear
stories of great people of faith we need
to be part of the story.
So if we feel we have
strayed too far, we can
always call out to the
One who can redeem
us and set us on the
right path again, may
our wills conform to
His….
Asherey Shalom!
It is always too early to quit.

Another win under their belts for
Shelburne’s Midget LL2 last week
March 20th when they wiped the
board in Creemore at the annual
Hockey Tournament.
The Midgets eased into their first
game of the day with Bruce Peninsula. An early start, as the first
game of the day the team showed
their skill and teamwork by keeping a tight knit squad, constantly
carrying the puck to the opponents net. A win of 5–1 took the
team onto game 2 with Creemore’s
home team which started slow on
both sides. Periods 1 and 2 offered
no goals to either team, until the
Shelburne wolves took control of
period 3 with the first goal being
netted by Kyle Burke unassisted.
The final second goal by Rhett
Fleming, again unassisted gave a
winning game to Shelburne with
their Goal tender Joe Woollett
having a shut out and qualifying
the team for the final champion-
ship game with their win of 2–0.
The championship game was
against Bruce Peninsula and having already played this team at the
tournament already the boys were
familiar with their opponents tactics.
A slow start again with period
one bringing no goals, and having
to step up to the game, Wolves skill
and speed immersed in periods 2
and 3. A final score of 8–2 for Shelburne brought the championship
home to Shelburne. Goal scorers
were: Kyle Burke, Rhett Fleming,
Dylan Dever, Justin Bennett, Liam
Mcleod, and Jared Moore. A tough
day for all, but a result worth waiting for.
A big thank you goes out from
the coaching staff, to all the patient
parents, the players and the sponsors who made this all possible.
They would also like to thank the
organizers of the Creemore centre
for organizing a fun filled day.

Continued support for Canada’s seniors
By David Tilson, M.P.
The financial security and well-being of
seniors is important to our Government and
we are providing real support to Canada’s
seniors. Recognizing the value of community-based projects that keep seniors active and
engaged in their communities, our Government is proud to deliver significant support
for seniors through targeted initiatives like the
New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP).
In Economic Action Plan 2014, we bolstered support for the NHSP, delivering even
more support to projects benefitting seniors in
communities across Canada.
The NHSP supports community-based
projects that encourage volunteerism, engage
seniors in their community through mentoring opportunities, expand awareness of elder
abuse, support the social participation and
inclusion of seniors, or provide capital assistance to improve new and existing seniors’
facilities. These senior-led or senior-inspired
programs are helping ensure that seniors can
benefit from and contribute to the quality of
life in their communities through active living
and participation in social activities.
Since 2006, our Government has worked
hard to improve the well-being of seniors. We
have worked to eliminate elder abuse and we
passed the Protecting Canada’s Seniors Act to
help better protect seniors and victims of elder
abuse.
We have also taken strong action to put money back into the pockets of seniors. Through
our targeted tax-saving measures, like pension
income-splitting and increasing the Age Credit amount, we are providing significant tax relief for seniors and pensioners. Furthermore,
by introducing the largest Guaranteed Income
Supplement increase in over 25 years, we are
helping improve the well-being of seniors
across Canada.
Every dollar counts and these measures are
helping seniors make ends meet.
Our Government is standing up for seniors.
Canada’s seniors have helped build our great
nation. They have and continue to contribute
greatly to our society and economy and as we
stay focused on the priorities of Canadians,
our Government will continue to work hard to
support seniors and improve the quality of life
in our communities.
