“We took numerous trips to
Mexico, Missouri to pick up
parts”, noted Arrigo as to the
12-hour trips that were required. “Lots of road trips”, he
laughs about the friendship that
was formed with MacDonald
throughout the process.
So, what is the financial cost
for an endeavour such as this?
“The basic kit costs twenty
one thousand dollars but then
there is the engine, radio, instruments and upholstery that
all cost extra”, reported Arrigo.
“All in all, the cost is over
sixty thousand dollars.
My wife only thinks it’s fortyfive or fifty thousand”, jokes

Arrigo and quickly asserts that
his wife, Bobbi-Jo has been a
“great support”.
Any frustrations along the
way?
“Oh yeah. When I brought
home the windshield, I left it in
the car overnight. The next
morning I am bringing it inside
and drop it. It cracked. Six hundred dollars gone”, Arrigo
shakes his head thinking about
the many frustrating times
along the way and laughs, “It’s
a testament that Doug and I still
talk to each other”.
Arrigo used a hanger at the
Fort Frances Airport to construct his plane and that is
where we are viewing it.
“I am so proud of the dash”,
says Arrigo smiling. “It came
as a bent piece of aluminum”,
he adds noting that it was up to
him to determine where the instruments and gauges were
going to be located.
planes to various destinations.
“We do a flight to Nestor
Falls for lunch and in aviation
talk it is referred to as the hundred dollar hamburger”, quips
Arrigo although MacDonald
clarifies that it doesn’t actually
cost that much.
“Nestor Falls is a beautiful
destination”, notes MacDonald
adding that they recently received funding to improve their
landing strip.
Many hobby pilots start by
flying radio-controlled planes
explains MacDonald.
“I started that way”, Arrigo
pipes in.
MacDonald has built three
planes so far with plans for a
fourth. Arrigo will help MacDonald with his next plane.
“It won’t be my frustration
this time”, Arrigo laughs. “It
will be much easier”.
“I’m waiting for the plans to
come out”, said MacDonald as
to his next plane that he will be
building from scratch rather
than from a kit.
“I’m stubborn”, he smiles. “I
have to do it my own way”.
Both MacDonald’s plane and
Arrigo’s plane can be fitted
with floats for the summer season.
“That’s my goal in the next
couple of years. To put it on
floats”, says Arrigo.
MacDonald has been a hobby
pilot for eleven years and graduated from aviation maintenance in 1991, unfortunately, to
a recession.
“I do electronics for a living
and flying and mechanics as a
hobby. It’s something I enjoy”.
Arrigo and MacDonald are
both members of the local
chapter of the Experimental
Aircraft Association. MacDonald currently serves as VicePresident. There are about
twenty-five regular members
from Fort Frances and International Falls who meet the second Tuesday of every month.
“We B.S. about airplanes,
watch videos and get together
for a couple of BBQ’s a year”,
reported MacDonald.
If you would like more information about the Experimental
Aircraft Association go to their
website at www.EAA.org or
call Leo at 274-9702.
So, when is the maiden flight?
“We’re just waiting for the
final certificate. It could be
next weekend”, they report
while Arrigo reminds me that,
“Doug will be doing it”.
So again, Leo, how does it
feel to have built your own
plane?
“It’s been a long labour of
love”, he smiles proudly as he
looks over at his new plane.
Ready for its maiden flight…any day now!

Support in principle received from Mayor and Council for Assisted Living Facility
By: Teresa Hazel
Although not as large a contingent came out for this meeting as the previous one in
December, the Assisted Living
Action Group left the meeting
with smiles as they received
unanimous votes by the Mayor
and Council to support in prin-
ciple the construction of an assisted living facility in Fort
Frances.
June Caul, Vice-President of
the action group and Darryl
Galusha, Administrator of
Rainycrest Long Term Care

request for support of their
mission: To advocate for the
senior population and their

Here we are - already the
middle of January! Time sure
does go fast - I should be calving in one month so I need to
get myself organized, stuff in
place and supplies ordered.
My cows are still living quite
contentedly in the bush and
have been much happier these
past few days since we seemed
to have moved out of the deep
freeze! I hope that is the end
of the cold weather for this
winter! I was telling a friend
the other day that the cattle,
rabbits, sheep, tractor, water
(never mind myself) all were
in a better mood now that the
weather has improved. Funny
how -20 seems balmy!
As much as many think this
is a less busy time of the year
and for the most part it is - the
animals tend to require more
care and if you are one of us
people that still calve in the
winter months - they require a
whole lot more care! It is also

Caul asked Council for their
formal support of the project.
“Please help us when we need
information about Town bylaws or the necessary permits
we will require”.
The committee has been
working with various organizations including DSSAB, the
Northwest LHIN and Riverside
Health Care and have also
started a membership drive to
raise funds for the cause.
“I implore you to give your
blessing and support to the Assisted Living Action Group.
Our seniors deserve the best
quality of life here in their
home town of Fort Frances.
I believe that this is the first
chat of the year so I wish our
members and staff a Happy
New Year. May the year find
everyone healthy and prosperous, mainly healthier.
We have not decided what
this year’s projects will be.
One thing we can all participate in is the volunteer of the
year award. If you know an
individual who serves the
community selflessly by being
on committees, volunteers at
events, delivering meals on
wheels, cleaning snow for elders, selling tickets, any volunteering at all, go on line to

letter at the Legion. Please put

they have agreed to allow us to
participate with a Webex. If
you are interested in joining us

great way to be a part of this

out the details on locations but get in touch with me and I
will be sure to give you the updated information. If you
would like to see a copy of the

have some great speakers lined
up.
The Rainy River Cattlemen’s
Association will be holding
their Annual Meeting on
Thursday January 23, 2014 at
Our Lady of the Way in Stratton. The meeting will begin at
7:00 p.m. We have often been
known to have the coldest
weather for our meeting - but
let’s hope that is behind us this
year. The agenda includes: a
small constitution change, updates from other committees,
Arden Schneckenburger from
the board of Beef Farmers of
Ontario and Barry Potter will
talk about “Handling your
cows the Happy way!” I think
that topic should bring all of us
producers out! Of course we
will have elections to the
board but don’t let that scare
you away! We are always
looking for suggestions and
comments - it is helpful to hear
from the entire membership.
Rainy River Meats is sponsoring the coffee break - so I am
looking forward to seeing
everyone next Thursday!

Community mourns passing Riverside announces Convalescent
of long-standing Chief
Care Program at Rainycrest
By: Teresa Hazel
Chief Charles “Chuck”
McPherson was more than a
Chief; he was a husband, father and grandfather. He was
also a brother, a friend, a coworker and a mentor.
His controversial stand on
unresolved legal issues with
the government with the erection of a toll booth brought
about criticism and also results. He was a leader who
made tough decisions for the
betterment of his community
and future generations. He understood the importance of
culture and during his tenure,
a beautiful new powwow
grounds was constructed on
Couchiching First Nation; a
place for traditional ceremony
and a gathering place for the
community and its neighbours.
Chief
McPherson
or
“Chuck” as many people
called him served his community for over sixteen years before his sudden passing on
January 5, 2014 at the age of
60. The new arena that he envisioned for the community of
Couchiching First Nation was
opened to the public in the fall
and his dream of providing a
place for the children to excel
in hockey was realized.
It was fitting that his funeral
service was held at “The
Duke” arena, where many dignitaries including Grand Chief
Warren White, Chiefs from
throughout Treaty #3, government officials and municipal
Mayors and Reeves were in attendance along with community members, family and
friends; some donning hockey
and football jerseys reflecting
his love of sports. During his
tenure, a beautiful 18-hole golf
course was also built in the
community.
Chuck McPherson was remembered as a grandfather
who joined his granddaughter
for tea parties. He was remembered as a role model to his
three sons and as a loving hus-
band to his wife Brenda. He
was remembered as a leader
who made a difference and
worked tirelessly for his community of Couchiching First
Nation. Words from the Book
of Wisdom were read by longtime co-worker and friend
Christine Jourdain at the service and Bishop Fred Colli
from the Diocese of Thunder
Bay sent a message of sympathy and praise for the Chief.
Father Victor DeGagne who
presided over the service
summed up the sentiment of
many when he thanked the
family for giving “their
Chuck” to be “our Chief”.
Reflecting his love of children and sports, the family has
requested that memorial donations be made to Kids Sport,
396 Scott Street, Fort Frances,
Ontario; or to the charity of
your choice.
The Westend Weekly extends
its sympathy to the family of
Chief McPherson and to the
community of Couchiching
First Nation at this time of sadness and grief.

Darryl Galusha, Administrator displays one of the new
rooms designed for convalescent care.
By: Teresa Hazel
Somewhere between acute
care, long-term care and
respite care comes convalescent care. It is a transitional
mode of care for patients who
require a period of time to recover their strength, endurance
or functioning before going
home.
Riverside was able to fill this
gap, as it recently secured
funding for four convalescent
care beds and Rainycrest
seemed the natural choice for
these beds to be accommodated.
“The cost for care is exceptionally less and there are
more opportunities for the patient to interact and socialize
within the facility”, noted Darryl Galusha, Administrator at
Rainycrest Long Term Care.
“They can go to the dining
room for meals and take part
in activities that are going on”,
he added.
Patients requiring convalescent care can only stay a maximum of ninety days so the
timing of transfer from a hospital bed to a convalescent
care bed is important. This will
be managed by the Northwest
Community Care Access Centre. Patients 18 years and older
are able to utilize these beds.
Three rooms at Rainycrest
have been remodeled to accommodate the four beds; two
single-bed rooms and a room
with two beds.
“We wanted them to be like
hotel rooms or like home”,
noted Galusha about the design and décor of the new
rooms.
“It’s about getting well and
feeling better so the environment is important”, he added.
With Registered Nurses on
staff and rehabilitation serv-
ices, including physiotherapy,
available at Rainycrest, the patient will have access to all
needed supports during their
time of recuperation.
“These patients do not require acute care but they do
need care and we will provide
that care”, explained Galusha.
Riverside Health Care operates the four health care facilities in the District and worked
with many stakeholders to ensure this new direction was
carried out strategically.
“Hospital and long term care
staff collaborated very closely
on the planning and implementation of the new program
with our local key stakeholders”, said Allan Katz, President and CEO of Riverside
Health Care in a press release
issued. “We also wish to thank
the North West Local Health
Integration Network and the
North West Community Care
Access Centre for their support and assistance”, added
Mr. Katz.
For more information about
the programs and services offered by Riverside Health Care
or to see a copy of the press release, go to www.riversidehealthcare.ca .
Javel Burke, Registered Nurse and Darryl Galusha are
pleased to be providing convalescent care at Rainycrest.

Beat the Bug
Gabriel Mooney, MS, RD,
LD
No one likes to get sick, yet
we come across many opportunities to be under the
weather throughout our day.
In fact, we come across thousands of them from the air we
breathe, the food we eat, to the
things that come in contact
with our skin. Throughout life
our risk of illness varies due to
things outside of our control.
Thankfully, there are things
that we do have control of in
this battle to be healthy. Let’s
look into how to better our
chances of beating the bug!
Our immune system is always working to keep us
healthy. Without our immune
system we would die in a matter of hours. Think about
when a body dies, it is inhabited within only a few hours
by illnesses, bacteria, viruses,
and parasites. Our body’s immune system is complex from our saliva and our skin,
to our thymus, which makes
fighting T-cells, and our bone
marrow, which makes red and
white blood cells. These parts
and many others are constantly working to help us
fight off illness.
Some foods help us stay
healthy and others can help
get us sick. Our diet plays a
major factor in our immune
health. Foods with trans fats,
which include many baked
goods, can cause inflammation and hinder our immune
health. Foods such as high fat
dairy, fatty cuts of meat,
cream sauces, and many bakery items have a high saturated fat content that can cause
trouble for our circulatory system and lower our body’s ability to have a properly
functioning immune system.
High sugar foods can cause
insulin spikes that stress the
body and decrease immune response.
Some foods that help us stay
healthy are probably of no surprise to you, fruits, vegetables,
whole grains and a plethora of
water. The fruits, vegetables,
and whole grains provide antioxidants and phytochemicals, which help our body get
rid of free radicals and prevent
disease. These foods have
their own immune system, so
let’s use theirs to help ours!
They also provide the fiber
needed for proper breeding
grounds for good bacteria in
our colon. This good bacteria
is responsible for 70% of our
immune system! The water
we drink and water from the
fruits and vegetables we eat
are vital to help keep our bodies hydrated. All of our body’s
systems need water.
Something many of us do
not think of when it comes to
good things for our immune
system is protein. Our immune system needs protein to
make the fierce fighting T
cells. As Americans, we normally don’t have a problem
getting enough protein, but the
problem can be getting protein
with too many calories and fat
(normally saturated fat).
Choose low fat protein
sources like, lean meat, low
fat dairy, beans and whole
grains. As we age, our ability
to digest protein is compromised. If you are older, remember to have your protein
first during your meals to ensure you will get your fill of
protein.
Independent of how much
activity we get per day, the
more sedentary we are the
higher risk we have of chronic
disease. For instance if we are
sitting for more than one hour
at a time our risk for cancer increases because of a hormonal
shift in our body. Getting up
and walking for two minutes
every hour can stop this shift.
Activity also helps with circulation. The better circulation
we have, the better our immune system can be. Too
much exercise on the other
hand can cause the immune
system to weaken, which we
have seen happen to some
elite athletes. This is due to the
added physical load of recovery and healing from multiple
intense workouts per day.
Sleep and rest are important to
lessen our stress and add to the
healing and repair of our bodies systems, recommendations
are seven to nine hours of
sleep per day.
A part of our immune sys-
Letter to the editor
tem, which many of us may be
familiar with is our lymphatic
system. Our lymphatic system
needs water and activity to
move waste along. This is just
another reason why water
(washing away) and activity
(movement) are important to
our immune system.
We all have immune systems
that work. It is just that some
work better than others. Some
of us have a compromised immune system, like the young,
old, or pregnant. We are all
different and not all of us need
to be as sensitive to some
things as others. Worry about
taking care of yourself. Don’t
compare yourself to others
when determining what will
keep you healthy. Eating to
love yourself will always help
you to love what you eat, especially when you know it
will help you be healthy this
winter season!

Dear Editor:
First, thank you for capitalizing "God" because in our day
and age, most people deny His
existence.
Second, thank you for acknowledging the position of
the people, that most people
do not want God who identifies any of the things they
practice as sin.
There was a time when it
was acceptable by the majority
of people to identify sin as sin,
but that doesn't exist any
longer. Tolerance tolerates
anything now except those
who identify sin as sin.
My letter is not really to address
homosexuality
or
whether or not it is sin, though
I could write about that, but
whether a society and the
"moral majority" is always
correct in their determination
of right and wrong. In recent
world history, societies have
risen in power who determined that it was ok to exterminate other groups of people
based on their roots, or to treat
certain types of people as
slaves because of their skin
colour. Were they right because they were the majority?
Was the person speaking out
against these things viewed as
tolerant or closed minded?
Their society would have
viewed them as intolerant and
closed minded. Their societies were wrong.
Who determines when murder is wrong? The society or
God? Is right and wrong absolute or does it change with
public opinion? Where does
right and wrong come from?
Where does our conscience
come from? Can the conscience become corrupted to
such a point that wrong becomes right? Nazi Germany
and the black slave trade are
both examples of human history when a society can and
does call wrong right and calls
those who call for right as
"traitors worthy of death" in
the case of Nazi Germany. Is
this where we are going as a
society, when those who call
sin are now not tolerated by
our "tolerant" society?
Best regards,
Rick Taillefer, Fort Frances
Meet the
Muskie’s
Calie Clendenning #35
Calie Clendenning is the
Goalie for the Muskie Girls
hockey team. She has been
minding the net for three years
and wears #35.
Although she keeps her
nerves in check while making
crucial saves and blocking
shots during shootouts, she has
had some tense moments off
the ice. “My scariest memory
was the bus crash on the way
to the Fargo tournament”,
Clendenning recollects adding
that there are also funny times
with the team especially the
antics of the players. “We do
have lots of fun together!”
With the commitment that is
required to play High School
sports, Calie is grateful for the
opportunity. “Hockey has kept
me busy and out of trouble”.
As school work is the number one priority for Muskie
team players, the girls are on a
two-week break to complete
exams and coursework for the
1st Semester. Hockey action
will resume again on January
28th when the Muskie’s will
visit International Falls to take
on the Broncos. The Broncos
will be looking to capitalize on
home ice after the Muskies
beat them 6 – 2 back in December.
Meet Your Go Local Business Owners
Doug & Blair Anderson,
Betty’s
“The Store with More”
Betty Anderson opened a hat
shop during the Depression.
She was a widow with children and a business woman
when ladies were not. On a
loan, she grew her business
from a milliner to a dress shop
and began sewing wedding
dresses for a generation of
brides. Her first store was a
rental in the front of Hallikas
Steam Baths. As her popularity increased so did the quantity of her inventory, resulting
in the nickname “trunk load
Betty.” To accommodate her
ever growing merchandise, her
son Ron and daughter-in-law
Elaine began to push back the
walls of the steam shop at
night. As the selling space expanded six inches at a time,
the steam bath patrons inside
questioned their waist lines as
the room felt smaller and

smaller.
She built a brand, and that
brand was pink. There was no
doubt in Fort Frances that you
had a special package when
you walked down Scott Street
with one of her pink bags. It
was all pink... walls, receipts,
and the store front wrapped in
bubble gum.
Her grandsons, Doug and
Blair, mind the counter at
Betty’s today. The building is
still painted pink, and the store
is filled to the rafters with inventory. “The store with
more” is truly a motto they
abide. It is with enthusiasm
that Doug shows you each toy,
book and box, especially selected to grow young minds,
offer hours of fun and become
cherished.
Ask the brothers their
favourite ice cream flavour
and Doug will grin and reply
with the obvious strawberry.
“We both love pink”, says
Blair. They both agree that in
the Anderson family everyone
worked. “You worked on the
farm and you helped out at the
store.” Blair can remember
his first job, at 4 years old, was
to shovel out the cinders from
the heating stove. Growing up,
being entrepreneurial was just
what the Anderson family did.
Despite the modern free
trade economy, the Anderson
brothers ‘Go Local’ when they
can. Canadian and American
made clothing lines still occupy most of the space on their
sales floor. Tradition and loyalty matter at Betty’s. However, Betty’s isn’t a business
that lives off of its past, and
both brothers thrive on finding
the next interesting product to
put on the shelves.
Being the owners of a small
independent retailer isn’t
likely any easier in 2013 for
the brothers than it was last
century for their grandmother.
Competing in a global marketplace and balancing both family and work has made for
some tough days. It seems
though that the business will
continue to be an icon on Scott
Street for many years to come.
The boys claim retailing is in
their blood, and one may wonder if their medical charts
would reveal that that blood is
pink.
