Food Basics set to anchor
Riverview shopping centre
New plaza 75% leased
Kingston east residents
finally got the answer
to the question they’ve
been asking for months,
when Taggart Realty
recently announced that
Food Basics will be the
anchor tenant in the
future Riverview Shopping
Centre. The centre will
likely open in two phases.
Phase 1 will consist of
about 50,000 square feet
of space and Phase 2
will add another 15,000
square feet around a year
later, possibly earlier if
a bank and liquor store
confirm tenancy.
Starbucks and St. Louis
Bar and Grill were also
on the list of announced
tenants.

COUNCILlor UPDATE
Hello Pittsburgh
District neighbours! Well
we are in the full swing
of summer now.
Molly McGlynn Park
The Molly McGlynn splash
pad is finally complete
and it is great to see all
the local families out and
taking advantage of it.
I have visited it with my
own young children who had
a blast while we were there
running around and exploring
all the new features.
The park looks great and
June 2016
Summer business in the district: Splash
pad open, third crossing update, community centre input
will hopefully be a great
community gathering
point in the future.
Third Crossing
You are likely to see
a barge floating out on
the Cataraqui River in the
location proposed for the
new bridge crossing, as the
work to do the seven bore
test holes will begin soon.
At the end of April,
council took another
step towards making the
New Crossing ‘shovel
ready’ by approving the
development of the business
plan for this project.
This will include a costbenefits analysis, analyzing
the benefits against the cost
and future maintenance
and will also allow the
cityofkingston.ca/city-hall/projects-construction/third-crossing
creation of a financial plan.
This work is expected
to take about one year to
complete and then will
come back to council.
There will be further
details provided at a
public open house in
September 2016, where
staff will present the
draft design concept.
Stay tuned or visit
the website dedicated to
providing updates on the
new crossing: cityofkingston.
ca/city-hall/projectsconstruction/third-crossing
Community Centre
Moving forward in the
planning process with the
community centre, we
need to hear from you!
—— What programs/
amenities/services would
you like it to have?
—— What do you envision
it looking like?
Please send in your
ideas and I will pass
them along to staff.
There will also be many
more public meetings
looking for the same
information. Please keep
an eye out for meeting
dates and times. This is a
very exciting time for the
Pittsburgh District and
many needed services are
on the horizon for our area.
Household hazardous waste
The household hazardous
waste facility is now open
again for the season at the
Kingston Area Recycling
Centre (KARC) located
at 196 Lappan’s Lane.
It is open until November
and operates from 8 a.m.
to 5 p.m. every Thursday
and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
every Saturday. More
information is available
on the city website.
Communication
and feedback
The City is working to
build better communication
and feedback; have your
say and help to shape how
the City communicates.
This is a community
initiative to create the vision
and methods for better
public engagement. The
framework of this effort
will help to shape how the
City consults, engages
and provides feedback.
There are public
workshops that are taking
place and also a survey in
June which will compile
the feedback and ask the
community for additional
input. Additionally from June
to August there will be more
focus groups and community
events to further engage

Riverview Shopping Centre taking
shape as planning progresses
By Ashley Clark, Journalism Student
Planning has been going
on for years, but things
are becoming a lot more
concrete for the plaza being
built in the East End.
Taggart Realty
spokesperson Jeff Parkes
said the Riverview Shopping
Centre is about 75% leased.
“We’re really excited
to finally announce the
anchored tenant is Food
Basics,” Parkes said.
Other confirmed stores
include Pet Valu, Starbucks, St.
Louis Wings, Tiny Hoppers,
and Summit Physiotherapy.
Parkes said there will also be a
local hairdresser and dentist.
LCBO is still very
interested, but hasn’t
confirmed, said Parkes.
“The province has
softened the restrictions on
how beer and wine is sold in
the province -most recently
it’s beer, and there’s more
discussion about allowing
more wine sales in grocery
stores as well. This is causing
some concerns from the LCBO,
not just on this location, but
locations across the province,
and how they determine the
need for their new locations.”
Parkes said they hope to
hear back from the tenants
who are interested sometime
in the summer while they
are settling the final plans.
“We’ll be working through
the city approval process over
the summer and hope to have
all the approvals in place by
September 1,” said Parkes.
There will still be
some action over the
next few months though,
Parkes explained.
“All of the infrastructure
that will service the shopping
centre is going in as we
speak. It’s part of Phase 1 of
the Riverview subdivision.
You’ll see lots of activity in
and around the property, but
until we have our site plan
approval, no infrastructure
will be built on the
property itself,” he said.
Aside from the
construction side of things,
Parkes said they have hired
a landscape architect for
the prettier side of things.
“There is a landscape
requirement across the whole
site which has to meet a
minimum of 20% of the site
area, which is quite a heavy
amount of landscaping, so
there’s (going to be) more
than just landscaping along
highway 15 it (will be)
throughout the whole site.”
The landscaping will
include decorative fences,
sidewalks and pathways
within the plaza, flowerbeds
and trees, Parkes said.
In terms of how the
Riverview Shopping Centre
will look overall, a site plan
package will be submitted
to the city the week of June
6th and will be available to
the public through the City
of Kingston, Parkes said.
When all is said and
done, Parkes said this new
addition to Kingston East
will be full of advantages.
“We hope it becomes a
community gathering point....
We’ll have lots of outdoor

space for people to linger and
to meet. We think it’s going
to help the housing sales in
general in the East end because
at the moment there are very
few retail amenities for people
to easily access,” he said.
Construction will start
in the fall and the first
businesses should open
next summer, Parkes said.
The $20 million project is
being developed by Taggart
Realty Management and
CaraCo Developments.
All updates will come
to the public from the
local councillor’s office.

Local gymnastics club beaming with pride
By Kimberley Falk, Staff Writer
The Fort Henry
Gymnastics Club (FHGC) is a
small diamond in the east end,
with its competitors earning
both athletic achievements and
community pride.
Laura King, the club’s
head coach, was previously
a gymnast herself at FHGC
and has seen it grow
exponentially very quickly.
“In the last few years,
our competitive team has
tripled in size. I believe this
is related to the East End
community becoming a more
popular spot for families
with young children to
settle down, ” King said.
The club has 26 members
on their competitive team
(competing in floor, vault, bar
and beam)
and eight
who are in
the precompetition
stage.
The
Trillium
Blooms
competition that took place
in Kingston from April 29May 1, was a great success for
the competitors of FHGC.
“All of the kids won
awards ranging from 1st-10th
place finishes on different
events. The athletes who
placed top three All-around
(this is the combination
of all four event scores) in
their age group and level
were Megan Duquette (3rd),
Mackenzie Baird (3rd), Elise
Voskamp (3rd), McKayla
Freeman (3rd) Miri Lambert
(3rd) and Madison Baird
(1st). Mikaela Coupland
also received a special award
for ‘Most Confident Beam
Routine’,” King said in an
email to Kingston East News.
The young athletes
train regularly each week
to build skills and prepare
for competition.
“The competitive
team trains 7-12 hours/
week depending on their
age and level. This was the
third competition our club
has attended this season.
Gymnastics is a year-round
sport. They train new skills
throughout the Summer and
Fall and then start working
on their routines to prepare
for competition season. Once
competition season ends,
Summer training begins again
and the cycle starts all over.
There was no specialized
training for this competition.”
The Trillium competition
was an important one
for FHGC members.
“For any of the gymnasts
competing in Level 3-5 and
Ages 9+, this was their last
chance to qualify for Level 3-5
Provincial Championships. We
recently found out that 13 of
our gymnasts have qualified
for the Championships.”
King has seen some great
potential and accomplishment
among her members.
“This past year, almost all
of our competitive members
moved up a level with
regards to the skills they are
competing. To me this is a
huge accomplishment because
it shows our gymnasts are
improving, learning and
achieving their goals.”
Being a part of the
Kingston East community has
also been special for the club.
“Being in Kingston East
has been fantastic. There are
a large number of military
families in the east, which
makes attending classes very

A half-century of memories: La Salle turns 50
By Ashley Clark, Journalism Student
La Salle Secondary School celebrated its 50th
birthday in activities running from May 20-22.
The event drew in over 500 alumni,
past and present staff, and students.
Activities celebrating the arts, athletics
and academics were held throughout the entire
weekend in recognition of LSS’s motto “facite
omnia bene,” which means ‘do all things well’.
The history of the school began in 1966, when
an increase in the Kingston population led to
the idea of a school being built in the east end to
accommodate both rural and urban students.
◄ La Salle’s very first
principal, Jay Lockerbie,
attended the 50th
celebration. Lockerbie
was the one who chose
the name “La Salle” for
the school.
Here’s how former
graduates remember their
time at La Salle Secondary:
“Soccer ruled during
my time at La Salle.
Many championships,
many memories (and)
friendships that have
lasted through the years.” Tammy Taylor, Class of 1988
► Local band the Rain
Kings performed at
the dance following
the dinner on Saturday
night. Lead singer Kent
Nicholson is a graduate
of La Salle.
“We are here tonight
to celebrate the 50th
reunion. We stayed
friends for 33 years
since we graduated.
Thanks La Salle for the
wonderful memories,
friendships and ‘Stairway
to Heaven’.” - Sandra
Ferton, Elayne Bordon,
Debbie Paddle, Class of 1984
► Current teacher
Andy Hills (on right) was
joined by professional
musician and La Salle
alumni John Abrams
(on left) at the coffee
house that took place
on Saturday, May 21.
Abrams said Hills was
the one who inspired
him to play guitar when
he took Hills’ guitar
class in high school.
“I found the love of
my life here and after 40+
years we are still going
strong. Best years in a
wonderful school. Black
Knights forever.” - Sue
Taylor, Class of 1975
“Many happy times,
especially in (the) gym:
playing and watching.
Amazing young teachers
who inspired me to be a
teacher myself.” - Christine
Hartel Webb, Class of 1977
“When I was here,
everybody seemed to get
along with everybody. And
the teachers got to know
you too, so you didn’t
feel like you were just
another number.” - Lillie
Shillington, Class of 1988
“La Salle is all about
community… I still come
back to the school a few
times a year to catch
a game to support the
students that are here
now. And I still live here
in the East end.” – Korinne
Peachey, Class of 1991
“All through high
school I was on the road
all over the world¬ in
Canada, the U.S. Europe,
U.K. and Israel –still am–
but I did it all through
high school and I never
felt like I was torn in two
directions. This school
was perhaps one of the
only schools I could have
gone and felt like I could
go away and tour and
feel supported. I never
worried about missing
classes; they were always
supportive, I could take
my work on the road and
it made a big difference.” John Abrams, Class of 2008
The school was supposed to be ready to go
in the fall of 1966, but the work wasn’t finished in
time. In the meantime, all of the LSS students were
forced to share Frontenac Secondary School.
In January 1968, LSS officially opened its
doors and welcomed the Black Knights home.

and sporting equipment were available all
weekend to use for spirited pictures.
▲ An art show was set up in the library for the entire weekend,
featuring pieces by La Salle students of all grades.
◄ From left, Jo’ann Black and Doug Falconer (1971) taking part in
the dance Saturday night.
◄ There were two
decade rooms set
up at La Salle:
the 90’s-00’s and
60’s-80’s.
The older room
was never empty.
Within it were old
yearbooks, photos
all around the
walls, and groovy
music playing in
the background.

Sunset ceremony an experience to remember
By Kimberley Falk, Staff Writer
It was a stunning night
for all those who came to the
Royal Military College Sunset
Ceremony on the evening of
May 19. With blankets in hand,
families and guests, as well as
VIPs, including the Minister
of Defence, The Honourable
Harjit Sajjan, settled in for the
ceremony, which followed the
105th convocation earlier that day.
The Canadian Forces
demonstration parachute
team, the SkyHawks from
Trenton,Ontario, began the
evening’s ceremonies with a
stunning display of strength as
Above: The Skyhawks trailing multi-colour smoke as they make they dove from the sky above
their way down from the sky. The team opened the Sunset the crowd. The jumpers did

flags and trailed the colours of
per hour to the ground and still looking good..
the rainbow as they fell. The
MC spoke excitedly, his voice
echoing across the parade square,
“You can see now very closely as
they make their way in for their
precision landings, 120 miles
an hour, the air rushing behind,
passed down, as they plummet
towards the ground. You can
see them now splitting apart,
deploying their parachutes. The
contrast between freefall and
being under canopy is actually
quite stark. Under the canopy
it is very serene and quiet, and
that is how the Skyhawks are
able to talk each other, constantly
coordinating and maneuvering
together.” The Skyhawks fall
at 1000 feet per minute.
VIPs and guests were
then treated to a performance
by the RMCC band, which
was joined by approximately
15 dancers, moving in unison.
“We’ve been part of the Highland
dance section for two years,”
says Clarize Virtusil and Anna
Childerhose as they took a
breath while preparing for their
performance.
On where her
path will take
her now that
she is one of the
newest graduates
of RMCC,
Childerhose says,
“I’m heading out
to Victoria for
navigation school.”
Childerhose
was one of three
cadets who
sang solo (she
performed Michael
Jackson’s Man
in the Mirror)
accompanied
by the RMCC
band. The band
played a series
of recognizable
songs for the crowd, including
a surprise beatbox performance
among its members, which got a
positive reaction from the crowd.
Next to perform was the
Precision Drill Team, made of up
18 Officer Cadets, who executed
a well coordinated march
through the square, passing
precisely through each other
with their rifles in hand. The only
sounds to be heard during the
performance were the cadets’
synced footsteps and the firing of
their rifles, which echoed across
the lake during the salutes.
Students of the Aboriginal
Leadership Opportunity Year,
also known as ALOY, conducted
a drum-in led by the ALOY
Elder, Mr. Bernard Nelson,
and immediately drew in the
attention of the guests. Aboriginal
tradition is important to the
structure of RMCC and the ALOY
program has established some
promising leaders into their
next post-secondary step.
The Old Eighteen Historic
Drill Team and the Naval Gun
Crew were the next to take the
square, leaving spectators in
awe as they re-enacted a drill
from the 19th century. The
team re-enactment honours
Canadian military traditions as
well as the history of the Old
Eighteen, who were the first
students to attend RMC when
it opened its doors in 1876.
The Naval Gun Crew
returned during the Honour
Guard’s Feu de Joie, a rifle
salute that has the guns fired in
a planned succession in order to
celebrate the Sunset Ceremony
and all the events of the night.

Art collection a celebration of history
June 1 marked the 140th
birthday of the Royal Military
College of Canada (RMC).
Though there was no formal
ceremony to recognize the
anniversary, there is much
to celebrate and a great deal
of history to acknowledge.
One aspect of the college
that is lesser known to the
general public, but relevant
to its 140 years, is the vast
amount of art that has been
collected over the decades.
Thousands of students have
walked in and out of the large
wooden doors of the original
buildings, many of whom
developed a strong sense of
camaraderie within the walls
of the college. The strength of
these attachments is evident
by the many donations, often
of paintings and artefacts,
made by individuals and
graduating classes. Until
recently, these treasures
were part of the decorative
experience of RMC, but were
not gathered or organized
in any particular manner.
The art collection rests in
multiple places across the RMC
campus; a vast chunk of it is
Below: A look at some of the miniatures in RMC’s
expansive art collection that have been catalogued and
protected. Right: An Emily Warren painting that hangs near
the entrance of the auditorium of Currie Hall. (Photo/K.
Falk; Emily Warren image archives)
now tucked away neatly in the
museum offices below the Fort
Haldimand building, out of
the public eye. Ross McKenzie,
the former curator of the
RMC museum, considers the
compiling of all this art into a
collection as one of the biggest
challenges of the past decade.
In 2010, the college took on the
large task of locating works of
art, some of it priceless, from
all across campus, and bringing
it together. Upper Canada Art
Consulting, under the direction
of Dr. Kamille Parkinson, was
hired to complete the project.
“Over the course of 9
months (spread out over a
year and a half of part-time
contracts) the collection was
fully photographed, described
and catalogued, a management
plan was implemented, and
recommendations for care
and conservation work were
made,” says Parkinson in an
article she wrote for RMC’s
eVeritas (June 2012). She
writes about the condition
that much of the pieces were
found in, some being in
almost an unmovable state.
“A good number of
paintings and prints were
retrieved from the basement
of a building on campus,
covered in plaster dust, some
with water damage and
frames beyond repair, and
others simply filthy with
accumulated grime,” she
says, specifically noting how
a William Thurston Topham
painting had been used as a
work surface for many years.
With over a thousand
paintings and drawings
alone, not counting sculptures
and artefacts, the art
assemblage is vast in size.
One collection of interest
is the Emily Warren paintings.
“These are later editions and
weren’t part of the original
design of the hall, but fit the
same theme and concept,” says
McKenzie of the paintings that
sit near the entrance in the
auditorium of Currie Hall.
By Kimberley Falk, Staff Writer
“She painted them just at
the end of the First World War
as a symbolic representation
of Canada’s participation
in the war. She had official
encouragement and she made
up the colours of the various
medallions. When she was all
done, a few years after the war,
they [the Canadian War Office]
refused to pay her. That drug
[sic] on for years. The paintings
were hung in the parliament
buildings. They finally paid her
some token fee some 20 years
later and they were transferred
down here when the college
reactivated after the war.”
The art collection holds
more than just art, but also
the stories of how each piece
was made and came to be
within the walls of RMC.
The collection has also
continued to grow in various
ways. “A year or so after
the initial cataloguing was
finished, RMCC received a
large donation of art from a
former cadet,” said Parkinson
in a recent email to the
Kingston East News. The
cataloguing process now in
place ensures that the pieces
are kept in proper conditions
to safeguard their longevity.
Only 20% of the total
RMC collection is available
for viewing by the public at
any given time, but any piece
in itself is precious to see.

Tea Enchantment: On the rocks, cubes or neat?
Wanda McCumber
TEAOLOGY
I invite you to tea, collect your
favourite cup, steep your favourite
brew and join me on a journey.
Its always time for tea,
but now especially—it’s
time for iced tea. I am not
talking about the powdered
crystals mixed with water or
the commercially and mass
produced cans/bottles of
iced tea. I am talking about
tea that is simply brewed
and chilled to a refreshing
and satisfying delight.
Iced tea is basically
tea that is brewed and
then chilled. Like hot
tea, iced tea too is full
Here are some amazing and refreshing iced tea recipes to
brew up to cool down.
Traditional Southern Sweetened Iced Tea
Ingredients
3 cups water
7-10 teaspoons black tea leaves
3/4 cup sugar (or substitute your favourite sweetener)
7 cups cold water
Preparation
1. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; add tea leaves.
Boil one minute; remove from heat. Cover and steep 10
minutes.
2. Strain leaves, reserving liquid in large container/
pitcher that holds 10 cups. Add sugar, stirring until
dissolved and add 7 cups cold water. Serve over ice.
Options: add lemon slices, mint leaves, chopped fruit or
berries to garnish and flavor your basic sweet iced brew.
of endless possibiliTEAS.
These include sweetened
or unsweetened. Adding
flavours is another popular
brew choice using sliced,
chopped or hammered
fruits including lemons,
limes or oranges, mangoes,
peaches, strawberries,
raspberries, cherries and
spices and herbs like ginger,
lemon grass and mint. The
variations are practically
limitless, especially when
you factor in using all
the varieties of tea plus
add the combinations
of herbal tisanes.
As the main flavor of tea
is released from the steeping
of leaves, it is important to
use quality tea that offers
a rich full flavor profile.
Methods for brewing
iced tea include the
traditional heating of water
as recommend for the
particular tea being used,
pouring over the leaves and
then serving over ice or
chilling. Adding sweeteners
once you have poured the
heated water on leaves
allows the sweetener to fully
dissolve into the liquid.
Another method includes
refrigerator tea. Refrigerator
tea involves simply placing
tea in a container with a lid
and leaving it in the fridge
overnight or for 4-8 hours.
Advantages of this
method include eliminating
any potential risk of bacteria
growth, a risk with sun
tea (next paragraph), and
excluding the need to add ice
as the brew is already chilled.
Sun tea is a green,
environmentally kind
method of brewing, where
you place tea in a large
glass container and allow
it to steep in the sun.
Glass is recommended
as you can sterilize the
container prior to use; avoid
containers with spigots,
as this is a breeding
ground for bacteria.
The joy of sun tea
provides brewing without

2. Measure tea and sugar into a heat resistance glass

3. Chill red wine or grape juice. Once liquids are chilled
mix together in serving pitcher squeeze orange/tangerine
slices and place in liquid add frozen grapes. Serve and
enjoy.
For Enchanted Creations Mystery Tea“Sans” Sangria,
substitute grape juice for the wine. When using grape juice,
reduce sugar.

FUN TEA FACT:
Sweetened iced tea
became so popular that a
special spoon was created
specifically for the beverage.
An iced teaspoon is a thin
spoon designed with a very
long handle. It’s primarily
used in the United States
for stirring sugar or other
sweeteners into the brewed
tea. Iced tea was traditionally
served in a tall glass, another
reason for the design of
the long handled spoon.
Wanda McCumber is
the owner of Enchanted
Tea Creations, a gift and
tea shop nestled in a
treescape on Highway 15.
She has a thirst for tea
and tea knowledge, which
is evident when you chat it
up with her, for she studies
the topic continuously. In
fact, Wanda is a Certified
Tea Sommelier.
As a long time tea
enthusiast, she began selling
tea in 2003 and is passionate
to gain and share knowledge
on the world of tea.

the use of electricity or
any burning of fuel. The
risk ensues when clean
vessels are not used or a
contaminated water source
creates an environment for
bacteria growth. Boiling your
water and allowing it to cool
before use can reduce this
risk. Also, limit to the sun
brew time to a maximum
of 3-4 hours. I recommend
frequently checking the
brew until it has reached
your desired strength.
One to two hours is often
enough time. Although the
caffeine in tea does inhibit
bacteria from growing, these
measures should be taken.
Both sun and refrigerator
brewing methods result in
a very smooth brewed tea.
I especially recommend
green tea for these methods
as the guessing of the
correct water temperature
to prevent burning the
leaves is eliminated.

Among the museum’s
other artefacts are books too
old to be read, including a
copy of every yearbook since
they started publishing them
in 1914, and miniatures on
ivory that were donated by
a large estate in Europe.
McKenzie, who dedicated
his career to preserving the
history of RMC and her relics,
recognizes the importance
of the works of art beyond
their contribution to the
legacy of the institution.
“The collection transcends
the history of the college.”

Advice for Graduates: Don’t just
start a career; start managing your money
Mark Potter
M oney T al k $
Thousands of young
people are beginning life
in the real world after
graduating this spring
with degrees or diplomas
from Queen’s University,
Royal Military College and
St. Lawrence College.
There’s an old saying
that ‘you don’t learn much
in school about money’,
and for the most part that
is very true. Like many
aspects of life, many
financial lessons are selftaught and usually after
mistakes have been made.
Graduating means
earning a decent paycheque for the first time
and experiencing the
challenges of juggling your
finances while trying to
make it in the world on your
own. It is so important
to know the basics of
managing and growing
your hard earned money.
Here are four
“must-know” steps to
get off to a great start.
Income taxes
Most graduates
will pay more income
tax working full-time
than they earned working
part- time while in school.
The days of surviving on
tips are gone, and income
taxes will be deducted at
source from your employer.
It means that first
$55,000 dollar a year job
sounds pretty good, but
it isn’t $55,000 once
taxes, CPP, Employment
Insurance and health
benefit premiums are
deducted, along with
contributions to a pension
plan if you are fortunate
enough to have one.
That can take a sizeable
chunk out of your gross
income and you will
have to learn to live on
what’s left. It also means
while filing your annual
income tax return, you
know what deductions
you can claim to reduce
your taxable income.
Get used to it; death

and taxes are the only
two certainties in life!
Start saving early
The best investment
advice is to start saving
early to build a solid
foundation for your
financial future.
Too many young
people starting a career
put it off and by the time
they are in their late 20s
or early 30s, marriage
and family financial
commitments can make
it a lot tougher to start a
regular savings program.
Many advocate saving
10% to 15% of your net
income; that seems pretty
challenging, but if you are
able to do it and start early
enough, it could mean
an earlier retirement, a
shorter working career and
financial freedom at the
end of your working life.
Treat your savings
like you would any other
monthly bill and get into
the habit of putting away
even $100 or $200 a
month by direct deposit
into a Tax Free Savings
Account or an RRSP.
Deal with debt /
Build good credit
Most graduates are
saddled with at least
some student debt, which
is not the ideal way to
begin your working career.
However, with the spiraling
cost of post-secondary
education, student debt
is a reality for graduates.
Make a commitment
to work at paying off your
student loans and while
doing so, avoid running up
high interest debt such as
credit card balances you
carry month-to-month.
It is important to
selectively use credit to
establish a credit rating
and it means paying
Fit Femmes
Chart courtesy Fidelity Investments
off those obligations
in a timely manner.
It is important to have a
decent credit rating in place
when you apply for much
bigger loans down the
road, such as a mortgage.
Develop a plan for
your money
If you use a credit
card and debit card it
is easy to track your
spending and see exactly
where the money goes.
Doing a self-analysis
will help identify your
weaknesses and the areas
where you are overspending
and need to cut back.
A crucial step to
building a long term
investment plan is figuring
out where you can cut
back to put away that set
amount for investment
every paycheque. Many
Financial Planners refer
to the 50/15/5 rule.
It means designate 50%
of your income to essential
expenses like food,
transportation and shelter.
Fifteen percent goes to long
term retirement savings,
and 5% to short term
savings to fund emergency
or unexpected expenses.
If you are doing those
three things, you can spend
the remainder guilt free!
Make saving/investing a
habit and don’t put it off.
Starting to manage
your money while still
in your 20s is the most
important step to eventual
financial freedom.
Starting a new career
and a new lifestyle is an
exciting time, but stick
to these basic financial
guidelines and you will
be enjoying your early
retirement years, while
those who around you
who didn’t save in their
20s are toiling at work
well into their 60s.

New buildings
springing up
on Base
By Edward O’Brien
Staff Writer
The appearance
of CFB Kingston is
changing and it’s not
due only to spring
weather. New buildings
being constructed from
the funding for Base
development that was
announced in 2014,
has become a reality.
The most prominent
change visible to
Kingston East residents
has been the ongoing
construction on the
McNaughton side of
the base, at the site of
the old base hospital
along Hwy 15. Future
base units and assets to
be housed there are as
of yet unconfirmed.
On the Vimy side,
the new building for
the Peace Support
Training Centre,
(PSTC), is expected
to be completed by
March, 2017. The
mandate of the PSTC is
to prepare personnel,
both military and
civilian, for operational
deployments.
Located across from
the Vimy Post Office, the
building will occupy the
area formerly reserved
for housing of military
personnel. Captain
Jennifer Faubert, CFB
Kingston Public Affairs
Officer, says future
plans for the Base
include new buildings
on the McNaughton
side for the Logistic
Support Squadron, 1
Engineer Support Unit,
and for 21 Electronic
Warfare Regiment.
