The path forward - RRFDC plans for future growth
By: Teresa Hazel
Geoff Gillon, Regional Economic Developer for the
Rainy River Future Development Corporation (RRFDC)
sees growth for the future despite the news delivered by
Resolute Forest Products last
week to lay off 150 employees
at their Pulp & Paper mill in
Fort Frances due to market
conditions for paper products.
“Fed Nor and the Heritage
fund want to help us get
through this time. We are putting together a wish list of
projects we want to get done”.
Gillon was at a Council
meeting on Monday to discuss
some of the projects that have
not yet been done, including
establishing a community
foundation, purchasing the
tourism centre building and revitalization of the downtown
with the removal of the Rainy
Lake Hotel.
“Fed Nor is willing to help
with two or three smaller projects”, noted Gillon adding that
these projects would be in the
range of fifty thousand dollars
or less.
Ideas for these funds in-
cluded new banners at the border crossing, new welcome
signs and possibly the modernization of the Town’s website.
How does Gillon feel about
the recent news?
“It’s been looming over us
for many years. During this
time, we have been able to put
together an action plan”.
RRFDC has been working
with municipal and senior
government partners, the business community and key
stakeholders to implement a
plan that will work to transition our economy and provide
for a prosperous future.
The plan includes five key
elements: growing mining
supply and services; supporting value added forestry;
strengthening retail and commercial; expanding other sectors; and building a tourism
market.
Recent initiatives like the Go
Local campaign to encourage
local spending has been extremely successful. The plan
also identifies exploring health
care-related services and ways
to market residential and in-
dustrial properties to developers.
To boost the tourism market,
the RRFDC has also been
working on various initiatives.
Work is underway on a summer festival that will feature
cross-border and cross-cultural
musical performances bringing together people from
Canada, the United States and
First Nations and Metis.
The RRFDC would like to
see activities and festivals held
under the Big Tent on La
Verendrye Parkway all summer long and are working on
initiatives to make this possible.
Another idea to assist workers in the immediate future is
to establish an action centre to
help with training for jobs in
diversified sectors.
“We may help someone to
transition to a job in mining or
it would be equally applicable
for someone thinking about
heading west to the oil sands”.
With diversification across
the Rainy River district, Gillon
sees this as potential for Fort
Frances.
“The money flows here as it

Future Development Corporation envisions opportunities
for future growth.
is the service hub of the district”.
Gillon does admit that it will
be a difficult time over the next
while.
“It’s not going to be easy.
Fort Frances will be able to
focus itself though and create a
vibrant economy”.
“We will work closely with
the Town of Fort Frances and
its Economic Development Advisory Committee to determine
what areas require immediate
attention and how these priorities tie-in with the goals and aspirations of the District”,
explained Gillon.
The RRFDC, along with its
Board of Directors works to
create jobs and improve the
commercial and industrial base
of the Rainy River District by
offering a variety of services to
the community. They help to
find fair and equitable business
partnerships, help businesses
communicate with a larger
market and provide community
learning for businesses and entrepreneurs.

Rev. Quast becomes Cross-Border Pastor
By: Teresa Hazel
Reverend Jacob Quast has
been the Pastor at the Church
of the Lutheran Hour for six
years. It was in May 2012 that
he was called to serve as interim Pastor for St. Paul
Lutheran Church in International Falls. Then a year later,
in May 2013, a call was issued
for Pastor Quast to serve as
their permanent Pastor. He explains that in order to facilitate
that call there was a time of
preparation.
“We had to prepare an agreement between the Church of
the Lutheran Hour and St. Paul
Lutheran Church”.
This Joint-Parish Agreement
required acceptance by both
congregations.
“There has never been an
agreement like this. An International agreement between
two synods, that being the
Lutheran Church-Missouri
and the Lutheran ChurchCanada”, noted Pastor Quast.
“Both parties had to accept it
and they participated in community
discussions
and
prayerful consideration”, he
added.
St. Paul Lutheran Church,
which celebrated its centennial
last fall, has always had a connection to the Church of the
Lutheran Hour.
“It is the parent congregation
to the Church of the Lutheran
Hour. There has been a good
and long relationship so it was
a perfect fit for both”, noted
Pastor Quast as he prepared to
take part in the Installation
service held last Sunday at St.
Paul Lutheran Church after a
community dinner where people from both congregations
came together to celebrate the
new Agreement.
As Pastor Quast has been
serving at St. Paul Lutheran
Church for over a year and a
half, the Agreement solidified
the relationship that has already been formed.
“I already know them. They
are a welcoming, wonderful
and warm congregation”.
The issue of working in the
United States also fit for Pastor Quast.
“I have a social security
number so that wasn’t a prob-

lem”, said Quast who was born
in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois
and therefore holds dual citizenship. He has lived in
Canada since he was one.
Will it be difficult for Pastor
Quast, who is also a husband to
his wife, Jolene and father to
his three children; Julia who
will be 17 at the end of the
month, Liam who is 13 and his
eleven year-old daughter,
Rowen?
“It will require good time
management skills”, laughs the
Pastor who plans to divide his
time equally between the two,
adding “there will be give and
take both ways as different
events and occurrences arise.
The proximity works and allows me to be available to both
churches”.
As both communities have recently been impacted by paper
industry downturns, I asked
Pastor Quast what his message
is to those who are struggling
with job loss and economic insecurity.
“As stresses arise, even
though it may not impact an individual parishioner directly, as
a community, we are all af-
fected.
If it happens to me, it happens
to all. Even in the midst of trials, Jesus Christ is with us and
promises to always be with us”,
affirmed Pastor Quast, adding a
reference to Matthew Chapter
28 in the New Testament where
Jesus says, “Behold, I am with
you always, even to the end of
the age”.
“It’s a comfort to know Jesus
is with us. He is with us in the
Church through His Word and
sacraments. There is a rock
solid supply.
The Church is here to support
in whatever way we can. There
is a commitment in Lutheran
heritage to God’s Word and
sharing the Truth of that Word
with everybody”.
Parishioners were eager to
shake Pastor Quast’s hand as
they prepared for dinner.
Bev and Jim Moorhead of International Falls, who are longtime members of St. Paul
Lutheran Church, were pleased
to have reached the JointParish Agreement.
“You bet! We were pushing
for it”, they enthused.
“We have a wonderful rela-
tionship with Pastor Quast and
are blessed to have him and be
in fellowship with the Church
of the Lutheran Hour”.
Helga Leimenstall and Art
Scheirer from Fort Frances
were also there to celebrate the
new agreement.
“I was confirmed at St. Paul
Lutheran Church when I was
sixteen”, recollects Scheirer
who is a member of the Church
of the Lutheran Hour.
Both he and Helga participated in the discussions and are
fine with sharing Pastor Quast.
“It is the work of the Lord”,
smiled Scheirer.
As members from both congregations prepared to break
bread together, Pastor Quast
was beckoned downstairs to the
hall to say Grace before dinner.
The Church of the Lutheran
Hour is located at 508 Victoria

Many economic opportunities on the horizon in NWO
By Sarah Campbell, MPP
This past week the community of Fort Frances received
devastating news when Resolute Forest Products announced that it would be idling
that location’s last paper machine. My heart goes out to the
workers, their families and the
entire community as it deals
with the loss of nearly 150 well
paying jobs.
I spoke with the company
this past week and it was
stressed that Resolute remains
committed to finding alternative products so that a restart is
possible. It was also mentioned
that nearly fifty per cent of the
affected employees may be eligible to retire, and for those
who aren’t, the company will
try to place workers at other
Resolute locations. The company has asked for my assistance with working with the
provincial government in a
couple of areas and I remain
deeply committed to doing all
that I can to ensure that we see
a speedy restart.
I know the large footprint
that the loss of even a few well
paying jobs can have on a
community and the region as a
whole, which is why I wanted
to devote this week’s column
to some of the positive economic opportunities we have
on the horizon.
There has been a lot of discussion over the past few years
about the development of the
Ring of Fire, but that project is
still a number of years away.
There are a lot of changes that
need to be made to set the conditions necessary for the project to get off the ground and
both the provincial and federal
governments have significant
roles to play in its development.
What is encouraging is the
other projects across the region
that have either already started
or are on track to start shortly.
Resolute has said that its
Ignace restart is still on track
for October of this year and that
its Atikokan start is still scheduled for early 2015. Eacom is
set to reopen the Ear Falls
Sawmill with a 50 percent operational expansion this year
and New Gold, near Rainy
River, is still on track, pending
provincial approvals, to start
this fall.
Last week I had the opportunity to meet with the President
of Bending Lake Iron Mine
while in Ignace. The Bending
Lake project is poised to be a
very impressive operation, with
an estimated 800 - 1000 jobs
created during the construction
phase, and about 360 permanent pellet plant jobs for the 30
to 60-year mine life. While operation is still a few years away,
it could be a very promising opportunity.
While not intending to be insensitive to the devastating
blow that Fort Frances received
last week, I want to point out
that there are a number of lucrative employment opportunities
within our grasp across Northwestern Ontario. I am committed to continuing to do all that I
can to work with individual
companies and entire industries
to ensure that we continue to
see economic investment and
good jobs in our communities.
I know the key to our continued
enjoyment of this beautiful region depends on our ability to
work here. I believe we will
have a strong and bright future
for years to come.
THE PATH FORWARD

and senior government partners, our business community and key stakeholders, has

Hear a missionary’s African stories
Hi I am Pastor Sandy
McEvoy and I am submitting
this article about a missionary
friend of mine who is coming
to our area. He shares this
story with us.
I was with a group of missionaries and we were in a
large land rover. We were
travelling through a wildlife
refuge and observing all kinds
of African animals-zebras,
lions, giraffes etc. All at once
we came into an area where
there were huge baboons.
The engine on our vehicle
suddenly overheated and
stalled. The moment we
stalled a large group of baboons (as many as twenty)
converged on the land rover
which had a canvas top and
they began to attack us with
loud screeching noises and
they started to scratch at the
top and pull on the door handles and other parts of the vehicle. They tore off the
rearview mirrors and suddenly
we realized how strong they
were. They began to pound on
the windows and we were
afraid they would break and
they were trying to get inside
by pulling on the door handles.
The driver, a missionary
friend of mine, tried to start the
engine but had no success. We
decided it was time to pray to
Doll therapy for Dementia
God to protect us from these
animals in the name of Jesus
and soon the engine started
and we were able to escape
with them chasing us.
It is very comforting to know
in an unexpected and dangerous situation like this that God
is mindful of us and we can
call upon Him in times like
this. You can also call upon
Him and He will hear you.
If you are interested in hearing more stories of God’s protection, Paul Tucker will be
speaking at the Covenant
Church across from the Canadian Tire Store at 7:00 pm on
February 8th.
From the house submitted by John Rafferty M.P.
This week it’s back to the
present, or recent past I should
say, to look at the end of
Canada Post as we know it.
Canada Post home delivery
survived two Great Wars, more
than a dozen recessions and
The Great Depression, and the
austerity of the Mulroney
years, but just eight years under
Stephen Harper’s administration has finally brought this
proud institution it to its knees.
Just one day after parliament
rose for the winter session
Canada Post announced that for
the first time in its history it
won’t be delivering mail to
homes in Canada in the near future. The timing of the announcement, just a day after
parliament rose for the winter,
allowed the Conservatives to
enjoy a winter break free from
difficult questions from Tom
Mulcair and the NDP Official
Opposition on the issue. A
pleasant coincidence eh?
Right.
The arguments in favour of
ending home delivery are, on
their face, bogus. I have heard
the following three reasons offered by the government and
some constituents on the cuts;
a) mail volumes are plummeting, b) the internet has rendered
mail useless, and c) Canada
Post loses money and I don’t
want to pay for it. These arguments are exaggerated at best
and flat out false at worst. Let
me explain.
Is mail volume really plummeting as some would have us
believe? Let’s look at the numbers provided by Canada Post
in their annual reports. In
2006, Canada Post processed
11.6 billion pieces of mail. In
2012 the Crown Corporation
processed 9.6 billion pieces.
Two billion pieces is an astonishing drop you say? It’s about
11.1% over a six year period.
Not fast and not dramatic.
More like a steady drip than a
flood some would say. There
should be lots of time to adjust
and remain profitable – and
Canada Post has (see below).
Is the internet making Canada
Post and home mail delivery
redundant? This is a common
one, and the answer again is
‘no.’ There is no universal
agreement as to when the internet was founded, but for consumer purposes it wasn’t really
useful until the mid-1990’s. In
March 2001 Canada Post delivered 9.8 billion pieces of mail
– about the same number as in
2012. So who still uses Canada
Post for home delivery – older
people who are not as tech
savvy as the younger crowd,
but also small and large businesses who rely on online sales.
You see, when you buy something online and pay the bill via
online banking the supplier
must still deliver your book,
sweater, or computer to you
and Canada Post offers the
most competitive shipping
rates.
So that’s all well and fine, but
Canada Post still loses money
and costs taxpayers billions
right? Well, let’s look at the
facts. Here is Canada Post’s
profit by year from 2002 to
2012; $71 million (2002),
$253 million (2003), $147 million (2004), $199 million
(2005), $119 million (2006),
$54 million (2007), $139 mil-
lion (2008), $357 million
(2009), $142 million (2010),
loss of $226 million (2011),
and back to profit in 2012 with
$131 million taken in. Doing
the math, Canada Post has not
only NOT cost taxpayers
money in 9 out of the last 10
years, but actually passed on $1
BILLION IN PROFITS to taxpayers over that time – and all
while providing timely and
high quality service to our
doorsteps and mailboxes.
So what is the problem at the
Canada Post really? I would
say leadership. While cutting
home delivery service and
5000 well-paying jobs the President and CEO, Deepak
Chopra, saw fit to give himself
a 33% bonus last year on top of
his $518,600 salary. If Canada
Post is really struggling and in
crisis what’s with the bonus for
the CEO? And don’t even get
me started on the 22 Vice-Presidents (yes, 22), none of whom
will be among the 5000 job
cuts.
With near record mail volume
(just over 10% off the record)
last year, the need for face-toface delivery even in the digital
age and with more than $1 billion in profits over the last 10
years is there really a crisis at
Canada Post? Do we really
need to scrap home delivery?
Should Canada Post CEO keep
his job and his big bonus while
cutting those of 5000 others?
The evidence shows, and my
strong opinion is, that the answer to all of the above questions is a loud and resounding
‘NO.’

Although Yerxa conceded
that the therapy is not for
everyone and some caregivers

with seeing their loved one
with a doll, it has proven effective and once they see the improvements in the behaviours
exhibited, they may feel differently.
Doll Therapy, if properly
used, may bring comfort and
happiness to the person with
dementia. It may also bring a
sense of purpose and meaning
and bring back memories from

Coming together for kids
The ABC Life Literacy
Canada website states that
time spent following a new
recipe, playing a game, or
reading a story together can
focus on learning in a fun way.
These teachable moments at
home help children learn listening skills and language
skills, and develop their imagination and creativity – and are
also opportunities for adults to
practice their skills to keep
them sharp.
All parents, caregivers and
children are invited to come
out and get some ideas on how
to participate in the fun of
learning with your children on
January 27th from 4 to 7 at the
Fort Frances Public Library
Technology Centre. There is
no charge to participate and a
free dinner will be served.
If you would like more information about this upcoming
event or the Coming Together
for Kids Coalition, contact Miranda Sigurdson at 274-9827

After expanding the dealership in Dryden and building a
solid management team, Nick
saw opportunity in Fort
Frances and purchased Sunset
Country Ford. He has led the
dealership through the hiring of
new employees, a renewed
commitment to marketing and
an entire interior renovation.
Sunset Country Ford is a
major supporter of Rainy River
District and Nick takes great
joy in sponsoring groups and
participating in events that celebrate the region. This support
extends to everything from
buying 4H steers at the Emo
Fair to helping Tour de Fort.
Nick, an avid fisherman himself, was instrumental in helping the Fort Frances Bass
Championship rise out a difficult financial position. Nick is
thrilled to see the Bass Championship doing well. “If I was
not able to give back to the
community, I don’t think I’d be
able to sleep,” commented
Nick.
“Very few people realize that
the clinic lends home testing
blood pressure machines for
an average of six weeks. We
also help clients understand
the significance of the readings, and where to go from
there. We also loan high quality pedometers for a similar
length of time, and help clients
develop a walking plan,” said
Ms. Erwin.
At the clinic you'll find a
wealth of booklets we give
away on healthy eating, cholesterol control and many
other guides to living well. We
even discuss smoking cessation with helpful methods to
aid in your success to become
tobacco free.
For a great way to start a new
year, with a healthy new you,
why not call for an appointment this week? (807) 2743261 ext. 4542. We are open
Monday, Wednesday and Fri-
With the first few weeks of
January behind us, how are
you doing with your new years
resolution? Very few of them
last through to December, so
why not trade it in for a
"motto" instead, asks Marilyn
Erwin from Riverside Health
Care’s Community Stroke Prevention Clinic?
For example, “lose weight,
exercise more, stop smoking”,
could become "treat your body
with respect, don't let it suffer
from neglect". Another common promise, after spending
more on the holiday festivities
and gifts than intended, is to
budget better and avoid impulse buying. That can be
summed up as "new gadgets
won't bring spender's sorrow,
if I don't own what I can borrow" The good news is that the
Stroke Prevention Clinic can
help you out on both sets of
goals.
It’s because of smart technology, fuel efficiency,
safety and quality. But most of all,
it’s because of you
we’re number one four years running.

Kaily Greengrass #6
Kaily Greengrass is a grade
eleven student who is in her
third year with the Muskie
Girls hockey team. She is a
fast-skating forward who
wears #6.
She hails from Devlin, Ontario and has played Emo boys
hockey, girls hockey and has
also picked up some competitive playing experience in AA
summer hockey.
Playing for the Muskies
means a lot of travel on a limited budget so when Kaily is
asked what some of her funniest memories are it’s not hard
to believe when she says,
“Some of the hotels we have
stayed in”.
How does it feel to play
Muskie hockey? “I love the
game”, says Greengrass. “And,
I love the friends I have made
on the team”.
It will be one more week before hockey action resumes for
the Fort Frances Muskie Girls
Hockey Team with an exhibition cross-border rivalry set to
take place at the Bronco Arena
in International Falls on Tuesday, January 28th. The Muskie
Girls next NorWOSSA league
game is set for next Wednesday, January 29th in Keewatin
against the Beaver Brae Broncos.
“My Dad taught me to support the community that supports you” said Nick Beyak the
owner of Sunset Country Ford.
Nick runs his business today by
reaching back into the values
learnt as a child growing up on
Lake of the Woods at his parents’ camp. “It is all about connecting with people, listening
to them and respecting that
every dollar they spend with us
is hard earned. We owe them
the best value we can give,
after all, we all really just
neighbours.”
When Nick was a teenager,
his Dad Tony purchased a car
dealership in Fort Frances, and
his Mom Lynn set out to serve
the community through volunteer and political advocacy.
After attending University in
the South, Nick returned to the
North and began working with
his Dad at the families Dryden
GM dealership. A short two
years later, Tony suddenly
passed away leaving the business to Nick, who became the
youngest car dealership owner

Nick and his wife Claire are
the proud parents of three children (Emily 7, Anthony 5, and
Grace 2). The family currently
lives in Dryden and enjoy summers at their cabin in Morson.
The weekly driving commute
assures that Nick himself is
well aware of the importance of
reliable safe vehicles. The
hours spent out of cell range
between Fort and Dryden, or
Morson, are something that the
young Mr. Beyak enjoys. “We
live on the most beautiful landscape in the world, and to have
the opportunity to know the silence and still of Hwy 502 on a
January morning is a remarkable gift.”
If Nick himself was not selling cars, he knows he could
find personal satisfaction in any
line of work that allowed him
to interact with people. He values the personal relationships
he has built with his customers
and staff, and looks forward to
learning from every person he
meets.
Trade that January resolution for a “Motto”
stopped within the intersection
and the Honda Civic slid into
rear of the school bus.
There were no children onboard the bus at the time of the
collision. No one was injured
as a result of the collision, the

Sigurdson added that most of
the activities will be geared to
children in the zero to six age
range.
“Children up to eight or nine
would benefit”, she added.
“However, it is definitely for
children, not youth”.
Family Literacy Day is a National day set aside with a goal
of inspiring families to learn
together.
“Making time each day to
learn together with children
helps to develop a shared culture of lifelong learning”, says
Gillian Mason, President of
ABC Life Literacy Canada.
“Learning opportunities happen every day at home, in the
park, with friends and family.
It is vitally important that all
of us, parents and caregivers,
understand the benefits of
learning outside the classroom
and seize the opportunities to
learn and grow together”.

“Crazy about Basketball!” by Loris Lesynski
It’s after school, and Mom’s
looking for you.
She probably knows where to
find you, though, because
wherever there’s a pick-up
game, that’s where you are.
Your whole family knows that
you live for swishing, shooting,
dribbling and dunking. They
know you’ll jump through
hoops to play hoops, which is
why you’ll love “Crazy about
Basketball!” by Loris Lesynski,
illustrated by Gerry Rasmussen.
From the top of your head to
the tips of your toes, you’re just
a bunch of body parts that don’t
even seem to work together
very well sometimes. But when
they do, you become something awesome: you’re a “basketball machine!”
There’s so much excitement
during a basketball game, and
so much going on. No matter
where you are, inside or outside, it seems like the best kind
of chaos. There’s cheering and
noise, a thunka-thunk of dribbling, shoes squeaking, and a
basketball moving from hand
to hand and up in the air. Who
won? Either way, “the thrill’s
immense!”
But basketball hasn’t always
been the game you know and
love.
Ancient Aztec ball players
couldn’t dribble because their
basketballs were solid, heavy,
and had no bounce. The playing area of “olden days” was
made of cobbly stones or plain
dirt, neither of which made a
game easy. Early, primitive
basketballs were made of pig
bladders or not-quite-round
soccer balls with thick laces.
Then, in the winter of 1891,
Canadian “professor-coach,”
Dr. James Naismith devised a
way for his students to get
some indoor exercise. He took
some old fruit baskets, hung
them “ten feet high” and started
to play. The problem was that if
a basket was made, someone
had to climb up to get the ball.
It took fifteen years for someone to realize that nets would
work better, and that the game
would be more fun if there
were holes in the bottom of
them.
You know how exciting it is
to watch a game, and how
thrilling it is to be cheering
with a crowd. You also know
what it takes to play: practice
and training for body, hands,
and mind because, as a future
pro, you know that it’s not all
about the shoes…
I have to admit, “Crazy about
Basketball!” took me a little
aback.
I was expecting a fun, fansand-players-based kid’s book
on the game of basketball. I
wasn’t expecting it to be written almost totally in rhyme.
What’s
most
surprising,
though, is that it works.
Using verse to speak to young
athletes, author Loris Lesynski
highlights the excitement of the
game and all its facets to kids
who can’t get enough hoops. I
liked the way Lesynski moves
between spectator and player
POVs here (for kids who are
one or the other), and the action-packed cartoon drawings
by Gerry Rasmussen just add to
the enjoyment.
Though this isn’t a stats-andfact-filled book of seriousness,
I think kids who love the game
will want this light-hearted
book on their shelves nonetheless. Young B-Ballers ages 8 to
13 will find “Crazy about Basketball!” to be a slam-dunk.

I was told today that our days
are getting a fair bit longer in
the evenings and shortly we
will start to see it change in the
mornings! That always helps
our too long winters! And
even though it’s rather chilly
today, the sun shining makes
you or at least me - feel much
better! I (believe it or not) get
rather crabby and down when
I don’t see the sun for a few
days. The sun cheers me up
any time of the year.
I have been doctoring or
pampering a cow now for a
bit. “Laura” was the cow that
aborted in early December and
the poor thing ended up with
mastitis. When I first brought
her in the barn she didn’t mind
being the only cow in the barn
but now that she is feeling better she is looking to join the
herd again. I left her in so that
I could soak her swollen udder
and keep some udder balm on
it. She has greatly improved thankfully. Not sure if her one
quarter will milk again but at
least she is alive! Mastitis can
be a nasty infection and not always do cows make it. She is
a really good milker so I
would be willing to give her
another chance. (I am known
to give my cows another
chance and it isn’t always
wise!)
I walk up to the bush 2 times
a day to check on my cows
right now. As I walked up the
other night a few cows came
running to greet me and I
knew something was upsetting
them. I called Roxee back
thinking perhaps it was a wolf
or bobcat but as I entered the
bush I could see some long
legs. It was the elk, all 6 of
them were eating at one of the
round bale feeders and the
cows were not impressed. The
2 older ones could easily eat
right over top of the feed rack
- they are a very tall animal
and despite the snow being
rather deep - they easily ran
off once they got a glimpse of
me. I really don’t want them
with my cows, especially now
that they are so heavily in calf.
I have to admit though - it is
quite neat to get a good look at
them.
A small group of us participated in Farm Smart - the Beef
Symposium at the University
of Guelph last Saturday. We
connected using WebEx. It
was a great way to listen and
participate in the program
right from home! The agenda
was good and all of us that
viewed it had positive comments for the program. None
of us would have been able to
travel to Guelph so this option
is a great way to make use of
the current technology. Chapple was kind enough to allow
us to use their meeting room to
gather and view the conference.
Rainy River Cattlemen’s is
slowly getting connected on
the World Wide Web. Shortly
we are launching our own
Facebook page and website. I
will let everyone know once
we are on-line and I will be
looking for “likes” and other
feedback.
Sure hope to see everyone on
Thursday night at the Rainy
River Cattlemen’s Annual
Meeting - 7:00 p.m. at Our
Lady of the Way School in
Stratton. We have a great
agenda and it will be worth
your while attending!

The unintended
Two arrested at border for
consequences of celebrity using stolen Target data
health endorsements
By Alan Cassels
Expert Advisor
EvidenceNetwork.ca
Is it a good idea to embark on
a genetic hunting expedition to
see if you're at "high risk" of
developing a particular disease?
That question was examined
once again last month when the
U.S. Preventive Services Task
Force (USPSTF) - an independent group of scientists
making recommendations on
medical screening - issued a
warning that BRCA testing to
find gene mutations associated
with breast cancer, should not
be sought by women at low
risk and unlikely to benefit.
The USPSTF was, no doubt,
responding to the Angelina Effect, referring to celebrity actress Angelina Jolie who
underwent genetic testing for
mutations related to the
BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes, believing that she may be more
likely to develop breast cancer.
Coming from a family with a
deadly history of breast cancer,
Jolie was told she was in a
"higher risk" category than average and that she would benefit from such testing. Later,
after hearing she carried the
bad genes, she went ahead with
a double mastectomy - a full
surgical removal of both
breasts - and wrote about it in
the New York Times.
Not only did this drive sales
of the genetic tests for breast
cancer into the stratosphere, it
also drove legions of women to
their doctors saying: (a la
When Harry Met Sally), "I'll
have what she's having." The
British newspaper, The Mirror
reported that breast cancer
rg
a
M
charities saw a "four-fold surge
in women enquiring about having their breasts removed."
The U.S. experts, perhaps responding to this craziness,
have come out recommending
that women with a family history "not associated with an increased risk for mutations in
the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes,"
should decidedly not seek routine genetic counseling or testing.
The fact that women are
driven to ask about genetic
testing reflects our celebrityobsessed culture, a strong fear
of breast cancer and a somewhat earnest grasp of the "better safe than sorry" mantra
which consumes many of us.
It's likely that the vast majority
of those new customers lining
up for the test would be classified as the 'worried well' who
would be unlikely to carry the
rare genetic mutation and
hence would receive no benefit
from being screened, and for
whom prophylactic removal of
one's breasts would be an extremely unwise option.
This is not the first time public health authorities have
taken note of the health prevention advice coming from
celebrities. People in the
screening world also speak
about the "Katie Couric effect"
when referring to the massive
public impact, in Couric's case,
of having a colonoscopy performed live on the Today
Show. This brought massive
star power to the issue of colon
cancer screening and proved,
once again, that virtually nothing trumps celebrity endorsements when it comes to
making high octane public

health appeals.
In fact, public health communicators study the Couric
colonoscopy as a classic case
in how to get people off the
couch and heading to their doctors to do something they
would otherwise find yucky.
As only about 50 per cent of
Canadians over 50 routinely
partake of regular colon
screening programs which
might detect and deflect a potentially fatal colon lesion,
Couric's star endorsement
probably contributed to a good
thing: a substantial increase in
the numbers of people asking
for and submitting to colon
cancer screening.
However, the recent advice
from the USPSTF on genetic
screening and breast cancer is
spot on and the numbers tell
all. Somewhere between two
and three in 1,000 women will
carry the same genetic anomalies as Angelina Jolie. For
women of "very high risk" of
the BRCA genes, such as
Ashkenazi Jewish women, the
rate is about two in 100.
The experts say that women
who have one or more family
members with a known potentially harmful mutation in the
BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes
should be offered genetic
counseling and testing. Everyone else, and that is most
women, should avoid getting
tested.
It is difficult to say if the
sober recommendations of an
august panel like the USPSTF
can compete against the star
power of a superstar celebrity who, it might be noted, never
advocated for others to get the
test, but detailed her own experience and advocated for "informed choices." In any event,
we shouldn't be too dazzled by
celebrity magnetism and dive
into screening for the remote
possibility to discover that we
are at "high risk."

Target spokeswoman Molly
Snyder told the Associated
Press that the investigation
into the breach was ongoing,
and referred the news organization to local law enforcement for details about the pair
who were arrested.
The Minneapolis-based company said last week that it has
stopped more than a dozen operations that sought to scam
breach victims by way of email, phone calls and text messages.
A message left for the Secret
Service on Monday was not
immediately returned.
With the help of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, investigators confirmed
the identities of their suspects
from immigration records of
when they had entered Texas
in the same vehicle. Police
prepared arrest warrants last
week and waited for them to
return.
Rodriguez said investigators
suspect Garcia and Guardiola
were singling out Sundays for
their shopping sprees hoping
that the banks would not be as
quick to detect the fraud.
The Target security breach is
believed to have involved 40
million credit and debit card
accounts and the personal information of 70 million customers.

Target breach, but would not
elaborate. The official requested anonymity because
the official is barred from providing details about the probe.
The recently arrested couple
is believed to have purchased
the credit card information
from overseas hackers, and
then used those numbers to
create a series of bank cards
and gift cards, according to the
Monitor. They made the cards
with data stolen from residents
of Rio Grande Valley,
McAllen Police Chief Victor
Rodriguez told the Monitor.
The McAllen, Texas police
department did not return a
call for details on what took
place.
During the weekend of Jan.
12, the couple went on a shopping spree with the cards,
charging tens of thousands of
dollars worth of high-end electronics equipment, Rodriguez
told the Monitor.
With help from the Secret
Service, police detectives were
able to connect the account
numbers to some stolen during
the Target breach, Rodriguez
told the news organization.
Surveillance photos helped
identify the car.
The pair were being held on
state fraud charges and it was
not immediately known if they
had retained lawyers.
A couple from Mexico has
been arrested after being
caught with 96 credit cards
cloned with account information from last month's breach
of Target customer data, police
tell news organizations.
However, one federal official
who requested anonymity has
told the Associated Press that
the arrest is not connected to
the Target data theft.
The arrest of Mary Carmen
Garcia, 27, and Daniel Guardiola Dominguez, 28, near the
United States-Mexico border
over the weekend is leading
authorities to believe that data
from the theft of almost 100
million credit card numbers
from Target's computer system
is being sold regionally, the
Monitor of McAllen, Texas, is
reporting.
Garcia and Dominguez were
arrested Sunday morning at
the Anazalduas International
Bridge as they tried to re-enter
the United States at the border,
CBS affiliate KGBT reports.
They drove a white Nissan
Sentra and when they reached
the inspection booth, they
were stopped for outstanding
warrants from McAllen, the
Monitor reported, citing a
statement from U.S. Customs
and Border Protection.
The federal agency could not
be reached Monday evening.
Law enforcement believes
the pair are part of a much
larger fraud conspiracy, the
Monitor reports.
However, the Associated
Press reports this might not
completely be the case.
Late Monday, a federal official with knowledge of the arrests said there was no
connection between this one
and the ongoing probe into the
