WLMH’s OBS continues erosion With births redirected into January, at least, midwives announce exodus if “24/7 coverage” not re-started
By Mike Williscraft NewsNow While the provincial government has repeated its commitment to have all services restored to full capacity at West Lincoln Memorial Hospital, problems with delays in restoring 24/7 obstetrics services (OBS) are jeopardizing that service, say local officials. At a steering committee meeting last Wednesday, Pilar Chapman of Lincoln Community Midwives an-
nounced via an email her organization would be forced to relocate its service if OBS is not fully restored in January. OBS had been shut down for about a year to allow for operating rooms to be renovated at WLMH, with some level of services coming back online in September. At that time, HHS officials announced OBS would not return at least until January due to nursing shortages. See MIDWIVES, Page 3
Brick Shack of Notre Dame
Jaimie Roser, owner and purveyor of Grimsby’s Brick Shack, has undertaken the tremendous task of building a Lego replica of the world-famous Notre Dame Cathedral. Pictured here is only the first of 10 sections, which weighs 78 lbs. When done, the Lego monument will consist of over 63,000 bricks. Roser is being careful, with all that weight he doesn’t want to be turned into a hunchback. Please see full story on Page 13. Marks - Photo
Coady resigns West Lincoln council seat But council, by virtue of deadlock, refuses to accept, leaving status in limbo By Tristan Marks NewsNow West Lincoln Coun. Christopher Coady resigned his seat last week, but half of the remaining council didn’t want to hear it In the end - by virtue of a 3-3 tie vote - council failed to agree on any direction, voting down a resolution to accept the resignation and a second motion brought by Administration/Finance/Fire Committee chair Coun. Mike Rehner to ask Coady to withdraw his resignation. Coady, who represented Ward 2, tendered his resignation from West Lincoln Council last week. He stated
in his letter that he and his wife decided they would not be returning to Ontario from British Columbia along with apologies for “the additional work” his decision would cause. Rehner opened the discussion for the first resolution by noting that the Township had to deal with a by-election in the previous term. He said it cost West Lincoln a lot to run the byelection, an unexpected cost he would prefer to avoid this time around. “Couldn’t we ask the mayor to contact Councillor Coady and see if he can participate through Zoom?” Rehner asked, later noting that
councillors do not need to be present with the Township’s current operating procedures. Coun. Jason Trombetta asked what the next steps should be in the occurrence of a mid-term resignation from council. Clerk Joanne Scime explained that the town has two main options to filling Coady’s vacancy: • a byelection, which would require a bylaw to be passed within 60 days to initiate the process, or; • by appointment. “The legislation is silent towards appointment,” said Scime referring to the lack of guidelines in the mu-
nicipal act for that option. Coun. William Reilly returned to Coun. Rehner’s suggestion of finding out if Coady was willing to participate in Zoom calls and suggested introducing a motion to do so. He also asked if Bylsma had tried to reach out to Coady. Bylsma answered no, and when asked said he’d rather, “let it be”. “A representative needs to be there for his constituents,” Bylsma said. “It’s paramount to me.” Coun. Rehner had staff confirm that Coady would be able to continue serving, so long as he owned See COADY, Page 4

From Page 1 Noting her group had a meeting to discuss the future, Chapman said, “It was a difficult meeting as we were faced with choices that are very hard to make.” In the end, the group has decided that if 24/7 coverage is not re-established in January (or soon thereafter) the group of midwives is pursuing the option of working full-time at NHS (Niagara Health System).” “The reason for this decision is that a longterm redirect is very difficult on both our clients and also the clinicians. It is not sustainable.” Aaron Levo, HHS vice-president, communications and public affairs, said management continues to be committed to restoring all services. “We are working to have a safe, effective resumption of obstetrical care in January. Scheduled C-sections
have already resumed. A planning committee of midwives, doctors, nurses and hospital staff has been looking at every option to restore service levels as much as possible, as quickly as possible,” said Levo. “We will continue to build up staffing levels and surgical volume, both of which are essential for 24-7 obstetrics care at WLMH.” Local officials do not see any level of focus or movement to reach those goals, however. “It’s very troubling that yet another service is being systematically forced away from WLMH by questionable management practices from HHS,” said Grimsby Mayor Jeff Jordan. “I hope HHS will do what needs to be done to rectify the situation, get birth volumes back to normal and provide the level of care we have all come to expect at our hospital”.
Andrew Smith, chair of WLMH’s Community Advisory Committee is waiting for HHS to step up as well. “Both the Premier [Doug] Ford and Minister of Health and LongTerm Care [Christine] Elliot have assured us that WLMH will be providing this community a full complement of health care services including 24/7 Obstetrics,” noted Smith. “HHS executives and the senior leadership team have also committed to continuing the high-quality obstetrical services the Niagara Region has been accustomed to; earmarking $500,000 in funding for nurse training and working diligently over the past year to attain the staffing levels required to run a fully functioning 24/7 obstetrics program. At this stage, it is all about HHS execution, we haven’t seen service reductions
at other HHS sites due to nursing shortages and I don’t expect to see any at WLMH.” Tony Joosse, chair of WLMH Action Commmittee, has similar thoughts. “I am patiently awaiting the HHS plan which we are expecting mid to late November, their finalized plan to phase in OBS for January, growing the program based on patient volume and staffing availability,” said Joosse. “I will also be encouraging them at our Nov. 5 meeting to enroll more nurses in the training program sooner than later.” For the midwives, they are just hoping to be able to remain at WLMH. “We remain very committed to (West Lincoln Memorial) and the model of low risk birth that has always been a cornerstone to the model of obstetrical care at this site. We are hopeful
that in the near future there will an opportunity for our return when the program can provide 24/7 coverage of OBS,” wrote Chapman. “We cannot emphasize enough, as we have done in the past: access to surgical services around the clock, seven days a week is imperative for the survival of an obstetrical program. We remain hopeful HHS remains committed to this goal. Like others, Lincoln Mayor Sandra Easton is not happy.
“It is unacceptable that we now find ourselves here. I am asking all sides to come together to find a solution to address the need for around-the-clock, surgical services to ensure the WLMH can support a full-scope obstetrics program,” Easton said. “To that end, I will be calling an urgent meeting as soon as possible, to ensure one is explored. We can’t wait until a new hospital is built to have these services return.”
WLMH has first staff COVID case West Lincoln Memorial Hospital had its first positive case of COVID-19 among staff on Friday, Oct. 16. According to an internal memo: • The individual has acted appropriately, following all reporting protocols diligently; • WLMH is working with its employee health, safety and wellness team to complete contact tracing for staff and physicians, and; • Public Health has been notified and contact tracing is taking place. “Some clinical services and procedures will be impacted. Patients are being contacted to reschedule,” notes the statement.

I am concerned for any homeowner who has experienced financial hardship as a result of Covid-related disruptions to earnings. As times get more desperate, we are going to see more offers from companies that prey on the lesseducated and more vulnerable segments of our society. This includes predatory lending from payday loan companies and personal loan companies. A payday loan is a relatively small amount of money that is lent to a consumer at a very high rate of interest for a very short period of time. The consumer agrees to repay the loan with his/her next paycheque. Payday loans are very expensive compared to other solutions; This is because they come with high arrangement fees that could result in an equivalent interest rate of 500% to 600%! The key to avoiding a situation where a payday loan is your only solution is to anticipate cash-flow problems before they occur, and then proactively establish some less expensive, alternative coping strategies. Apply to your financial institution for overdraft protection on your bank account, or apply for a personal or secured line of credit. Even a credit card cash advance at 28% interest is a better solution than a payday loan! Investigate re-writing your mortgage to extend the amortization - resulting in a lower monthly payment; or refinance your home to stash some cash in an emergency savings account that you can tap into when your paycheque is less than typical. The key to obtaining low-interest credit is to apply before you actually need that credit. Comedian Bob Hope said it best: A bank is a place that will lend you money if you can prove that you don’t need it. I invite any homeowner who feels “hopeless” about their financial future to contact me. I will do my best to turn “hopeless” into “hopeful”!

From Page 1 property in the municipality. Furthermore, Coady’s electronic presence would count as him being present at meetings, according to the current procedures. However, Coun. Harold Jonker pointed out that Coady’s Wellandport property is currently up for sale. “We are in a situation where we have to accept his resignation or not,” Jonker said. “His property is up for sale. I think we accept his resignation and wait for a report.” After the vote to accept died in a 3-3 vote, Bylsma sought an understanding from dissenters: Rehner, Coun. William Reilly and Trombetta. “Our residents need an explanation as to why these councillors fought so far hard to bring back a councillor who has already moved and is selling his property,” said Bylsma, who also noted Coady’s frequent absences from council and committee meetings in 2020. Reilly defended his decision by saying the town had an opportunity. “I felt Councillor Rehner had a creative idea. I had the perspective that there might still be a way to rectify this situation,” said Reilly. “Coady has property, maybe he doesn’t know the rules and we can inform him.” Debate continued un-

til Coun. Cheryl Ganann called a point of order due to the discussion occurring outside of a motion. Reilly then requested the clerk write up a new motion, which directed staff to contact Coady and see if he was willing to reverse his resignation, and, if not, would trigger the procedures for his replacement. “It’s important that Coady is informed that he can still serve if he has property in the municipality,” Reilly said. When discussion began for the new motion, Ganann criticized the idea that merely owning property in West Lincoln was enough for Coady to fulfill his duties. “I think we’ve forgotten that there’s a lot more than just owning property or zooming in,” said Ganann, who listed the official duties and responsibilities of a councillor. “There’s so much more that you must do to represent people than you can from a province on the other side of the country.” Ultimately, Reilly’s motion also failed with a tied vote from Bylsma, Ganann and Jonker voting against. In an email after the meeting, Reilly said he will change his vote, “For the record, I will be accepting Councillor Christopher Coady’s resignation at Council on Monday Oct. 26, 2020.”
Grimsby connects to Digital Main St. Downtown Grimsby businesses will now have access to a service squad support system after the Town and Downtown Improvement Area have had a Digital Main Street grant approved. Businesses can apply for their own $2,500 Digital Transformation Grant to allow them to improve their online presence and marketing. The umbrella grant under the program brings in a contracted staff person (see job posting on Page 12) to help with that process. The main role of a Digital Service Squad (DSS) team member is to assess business’s online presence and then recommend how to enhance their digital capabilities. For example, a DSS member can help build a basic web presence or enhance a business’s existing presence by helping to activate easy-to-use tools such as a basic website setup, Google My Business profiles, 360-degree photos, creation or en-

Lincoln is one step away from ratifying a Museum Advisory Committee for the new Lincoln Museum and Cultural Centre. The committee, which was discussed at Monday’s Committee of the Whole meeting, will be officially formed pending a vote at next week’s Council meeting. This committee will consist of at least seven members of the public and two members of council, the latter of whom will be decided at the Oct. 26 meeting. Any Lincoln resident or business owner may apply to be appointed to the committee, so long as they meet the following qualifications: • Strong interest in museums, culture and/or history; • Demonstrated passion through previous volunteer experience;
• Ability to commit necessary time to meetings and events; • Demonstrated expertise through work/academic qualifications; • And strong interpersonal skills and able to maintain effective working relationships. The advisory committee will oversee the implementation of the Museum’s Strategic Plan, support the work of the Museum and its staff, and will ensure that it meets professional standards outlined by the Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries through the Standards for Community Museums in Ontario. Mayor Sandra Easton expressed her enthusiasm for this next step during the Oct. 19 meeting. “The creation of a Museum Advisory Committee is the
next step in this exciting project. The Advisory Committee will provide input, guidance, and support to museum staff to ensure the countless benefits to both residents and visitors alike to Lincoln come to fruition,” she said. “Through the establishment of the Advisory Committee, we are bringing together community experts and professional staff to realize the full potential of the museum, its offerings, and how our community interacts with this strategic investment. Council continues to be proud of this project and is excited that we are entering the final phase. Ensuring both Council and community engagement in the operational side of this museum moving forward will make this a top cultural asset to Lincoln.”

HCD study gets COTW support Grimsby’s Committee of The Whole put its support behind a proposed Heritage Conservation District (HCD) Study on Monday night for Main Street East. The proposal, recommended by the Town’s Heritage Advisory Committee, will need to be ratified at the next meeting of council Nov. 2. While Coun. Kevin Ritchie addressed concerns he had with the size - Main Street from Robinson Street east to the town
limit - as encompassing so many properties, Coun. Dorothy Bothwell explained to council the process can take care of itself to finetune those details. “The by-law sets the study area to be included for the interim control measures. The study area will be further refined in the consultant’s ‘scope of study’ which will then examine and make recommendations as to the geographic boundaries of the area to be designated,” said
Driven for Charity
Bothwell after the meeting. “Areas and properties could be removed. This will involve a lot of public consultation before it gets to being a draft HCD PLAN with final boundaries. With Coun. Dave Sharpe declaring a conflict on the matter, Councillors Bothwell, Reg Freake, Lianne Vardy, Dave Kadwell and Mayor Jeff Jordan voted in favour. Councilllors Ritchie, Randy Vaine and John Dunstall opposed.

Grimsby man aims to build Notre Dame, brick by lego brick By Tristan Marks NewsNow No need to book a flight to Paris, France. A Grimsby man is building the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral right here in town brick by brick. Lego brick by Lego brick, that is. Jaimie Roser, owner and purveyor of Grimsby’s Brick Shack, a store for all things Lego, is putting his skills to the test building a scale model of the cathedral out of a 63,000 brick kit. As of the time of writing, Roser has just about finished the front of the set, which he said weighs 78 lbs. on its own. That was just by the end of the first booklet of instructions for the massive undertaking, which was about 350
pages long. This was only the first booklet of ten. He explained the reason for buying this monumental set in particular came from him and his wife’s love of travelling. “We’ve actually been there [to the Cathedral],” said Roser. “One day I saw an instructions set on sale by an Italian fellow and I thought it would be a great display for the store.” The Brick Shack recently finished renovating and expanding its storefront, which is a good thing because Roser is going to need that space for this project. The Notre Dame will join a number of other Lego sets on display throughout the shopsome which came
ROBERT BRYER, BROKER
with instructions and some created by visitors using an assortment of bricks in the store’s Brick Bar. “We have our Brick Bar here for what we in the hobby call ‘mocs’- ‘make your own creations’,” Roser said. This Brick Bar is one of the attractions that draws people from around Ontario to the Brick Shack. Kids and adults alike can use the assortment of Lego bricks to design
and build what they want, or even purchase what they need from it for their home projects. “People spend hours at the Brick Bar,” Roser said Of course, with a lot of hands potentially going into the bar, the store has some extra policies to keep itself COVID-safe. Firstly, Roser makes sure to sanitize every new load of bricks he buys for the store. “I have a wash-
ing machine at home that’s just for bricks,” he explained. “I run them through and sanitize them before I bring them to the shop.” Additionally, Roser requires that any customer who wants to make use of the Brick Bar wear safety gloves, which he provides. Roser also keeps the Brick Shack stocked with discontinued sets, which also draws a lot of adult
collectors. In fact, most of his customers- as many as 80 per cent- are adults looking to collect the rare, the discontinued and the vintage. Many of those adults who come in display the same glee and look of wonder that kids do. It is for this reason Roser decided to take on the Notre Dame Lego project. “I want to show people that Lego isn’t just for kids,” Roser said.

Heritage wins, WLMH weakened
It was a bumper crop of quality local news this week, I just wish it was more positive. Really, it’s a good mix ranging from unfortunate to weird. At the unfortunate end of NewsNow is owned & operated by 1602207 Ontario Ltd. the scale, we have West Lincoln Memorial Hospital. Office Locations While there has been conGrimsby Office Beamsville Office sistent very good news on 1 Mountain Street, P.O Box 614 the long-range planning front Grimsby, ON, L3M 3J6 Beamsville, ON, L0R 1B0 at several points, the day-toPh: 289-235-9500 Ph: 289-235-7848 day situation - mainly dealing with staffing and services NewsNow is published EVERY Thursday - continues to get nickeled delivered to homes in West Niagara & Winona, 26,529. and dimed into oblivion. The news that the midwives program is planning to relocate east to work with Niagara Health System in January is 24/7 obstetrics continues to flatline is no shock. People have to be able to plan, to earn a living, and nothing Hamilton Health Sciences has done on the staffing front would give anyone any confidence that things will change - and that is going back now two full years. For all that time, li’l ol’ me and a bunch of key officials and residents have waved the biggest red flag possible to warn of rocky shoals ahead. For some reason, HHS has kept a steady-as-shegoes course headed right for those rocks. The key there, as I tried to explain when questioning HHS officials this week, is the I pie with my little eye... cart is going to have to go Lincoln Park Retirement Community executive chef Mike in front of the horse at some DiPardo hands resident Gertrude Mensch a freshly-baked ap- point. ple pie.

Long distance councillor
MIKE WILLISCRAFT the process which has been evident for the last year for sure - bleeding volumes to a trickle for the ORs and OBS With all the time they had, OBS should have been ready to roll out in September when the operating rooms came back online. Not to beat a dead horse, but that didn’t happen, and attention was turned to the next deadline they set of being ready for January. Now, nothing visibly has changed but everyone is clinging to the hope that HHS delivers on what they have promised the community and the Provincial government, a government which has repeatedly promised WLMH will not see any change in services either in the short term or in the new build - when that comes. Adding to the frustration is, all we can do is cross our fingers and hope. I know mine are crossed. ****** Grimsby’s Main Street East Heritage District Study gained approval from Committee of The Whole on Monday. This is a good thing. That said, Coun. Kevin Ritchie read out some appropriate concerns about the motion put before council namely the boundaries of the area and the inclusion of all the properties, some clearly not appropriate, in the study area. The obvious and key
thing to point out there is the process - which is clearly defined in the Ontario Heritage Act tool kit - deals with those concerns, which are specifically mentioned as items which can refined as part of the process once it is started. The boundaries can be adjusted and properties can be exempts. These things are done with full public consultation, also part of the process. Ritchie, and Coun. Randy Vaine were correct in their noting it would be good to have staff input. For that reason, Coun. Dorothy Bothwell suggested a friendly amendment deferring the recommendation to council’s meeting in late November to allow time for staff to comment. Ritchie, who seconded it, would not agree. He simply did not want to see a report for a Heritage District Study come back and Bothwell’s amendment stipulated staff could report on the suggested motion which was before them. The other key concern of those who dissented was prospective costs. On the study area, basically the main thoroughfare from downtown east to the Lincoln border, yes, it will cost a chunk. However, you either do it right or you roll over and let developers do as they please. I am not looking for developers to be shut down, but a workable plan needs to be in order to lay a groundwork for the future. It is also important to note Coun. Dave Kadwell put his support behind the plan. In the past, Kadwell has been a key advocate for heritage planning and lamented many of the projects previous councils had passed. It was a very good thing to see him stay true to his historic views and get behind this. I am sure many appreciated it.
Let’s not have Groundhog Day 2016 again Almost as soon as I came to Grimsby in 1961, I discovered a love for history and our heritage. I joined St. Philipby-the-lake Church at Grimsby Beach, and became immersed in local history to the point that I sold a fullpage article on the Beach to the Hamilton Spectator. Shortly after the article appeared, I received a phone call from the president of the Grimsby Histori-
A Small Drop of Ink By Dorothy Turcotte cal Society telling me that they had appointed me to their board of directors! Then I was hooked. When GHS asked Town Council to establish a Local Architectural Advisory Committee (LACAC) in 1984, I was one of the appointed members. It was a great experience. Everyone was eager to protect
our heritage and learn as much as we could, but how to do that? There was a Regional LACAC, too, and we worked together. Later, I was a member of the Grimsby Heritage Advisory Committee (GHAC) which was a less satisfying experience. The emphasis in our mandate was the word “advisory”. We were just expected to advise, then keep quiet. When some of the members tried
Uncovering the past
Workers installing new signage on the old Home Hardware building on Main Street uncovered a sign many had forgotten about for Grimsby Furniture, which was operated by Tony and Helen Stadler at that location from 19621971. It had several locations around after first opening in 1945. The photo is courtesy of George Styrna, whose son, John noted, “I had the pleasure of working for Betzner’s Dominion Hardware back in high school and vaguely recall the Crest Hardware sign that pre-dated (Betzner’s) Dominion Hardware.”
to make a difference, there were roadblocks. In 2016, committee member and alderman John Dunstall, after praising our efforts, recommended that the committee be abolished. It was. It was revived a couple of years ago as Heritage Grimsby Advisory Committee (HGAC). A wise committee member, Dorothy Bothwell was chosen by the committee as their chairman. But Alderman Dunstall still wanted to be chairman. He managed to have Ms. Bothwell ousted. Groundhog Day 2016 all over again. While those who understand the issues and really care about Grimsby’s future try to carry on with integrity, there is another group who favour development over our precious heritage. After GHAC was disbanded, I protested to Mayor Bentley who said, “We need a committee of people who are dedicated and knowledgeable.” Kick in the pants, eh? I replied, “You had them.”
