End to prayer formalized by council-By Denis Langlois, Sun Times, Owen Sound-Tuesday, May 26, 2015 9:39:56 EDT AM

City council has officially closed the book on the issue of praying at its meetings.It amended the city’s procedural rules Monday evening to remove both faith blessings and a moment of silent reflection from its agendas.This latest round of discussion on eliminating prayer from meetings began last month after the Supreme Court of Canada ruled the practice by a municipal council in Quebec of praying during meetings infringed on a person’s freedom of conscience and religion as guaranteed by Quebec’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Council had voted in 2011 to stop reciting the Lord’s Prayer at the start of its meetings. It approved a new practice of inviting representatives of local churches to take a turn at leading them in a “faith blessing.” When no one was available, council participated in a moment of silent reflection.However, in light of the Supreme Court decision and after receiving legal advice of its own, council accepted a staff recommendation last month to no longer welcome prayers or invite people to pause to reflect.

Haswell says she won't return to city politics-By Denis Langlois, Sun Times, Owen Sound-Thursday, November 27, 2014 2:41:20 EST PM

Outgoing Owen Sound Mayor Deb Haswell says she will not attempt to return to municipal politics in the future.“Culminating the end of my career with one term as mayor, I think it’s time to move along,” she said in an interview Thursday, four days before her tenure comes to a close.Mayor-elect Ian Boddy is scheduled to be sworn-in as head of council at an inaugural city council meeting Monday night at the Roxy Theatre in Owen Sound.Deputy-mayor Arlene Wright, incumbent councillors Peter Lemon and Jim McManaman and newcomers Richard Thomas, Travis Dodd, Scott Greig, Brian O’Leary and Marion Koepke will also be sworn in.Haswell, who has been on Owen Sound council for 17 years, said while municipal politics are not in her future, she will not shut the door on seeking or accepting a position at the provincial or federal level.
For now, though, her plan is to return to running her downtown Owen Sound business, The Rocking Horse toy store which she co-owns with her partner Dianne Mattice, and “pursue other opportunities” she said she cannot yet disclose.“After Christmas, there’s a few things that I’m looking at. I’m still looking to serve the community in other capacities,” she said, adding she has accepted a position on the board of directors at Habitat for Humanity Grey Bruce.Haswell finished in third place in a four-person race for mayor Oct. 27. She secured 14% of votes, while Boddy garnered 47% and former mayor Ruth Lovell Stanners received 34%.“I was one of the 50% of the mayors in Ontario who were turfed. It was a big sweep; a mood for change. Often that’s what happens in politics. You can do lots of very very positive things, good work, and when you’re the mayor you become the face of all in the community. I think it reflects on the outcome of the election as well as flavours you for going forward,” she said.Haswell said she has no regrets from her time in municipal politics.I’ll really miss the work. I’ll miss the work a lot. I really enjoyed being part of the decision-making. I’m really proud of all the decisions I was able to be a part of. Many, many, many good decisions were made over the 17 years and particularly over the last term of council.”ut she said the last election was “really hard on my family. It took a lot out of us. And I just, quite frankly, don’t want to put my family through that again on a municipal level.”She said a lot of promises were made by other candidates during the election campaign and she hopes the community will hold the new council accountable.“I think the expectations are quite high,” she said.“There’s an expectation that taxes are going down and services are going to increase and there’s going to be more jobs. I haven’t heard a plan yet. Nobody’s laid out a plan.”

Former Ontario deputy minister sentenced to three years for child porn-The Canadian PressBy Paola Loriggio, The Canadian Press | MAY 29,15-YAHOONEWS

TORONTO - A former Ontario deputy education minister who pleaded guilty to three child pornography-related charges was sentenced Friday to three years in prison.Benjamin Levin, a respected scholar with a close, loving family, "appeared to have it all," Judge Heather McArthur said in her decision."Mr. Levin also had a hidden dark side. Unbeknownst to his friends, colleagues and family, he had become deeply immersed in a deviant and depraved online world."Levin, 63, pleaded guilty to possession of child pornography, making child pornography — a charge stemming from an explicit story he wrote — and counselling the indictable offence of sexual assault. He was originally charged with seven child porn-related offences.Levin claimed online to have sexually abused his own daughters, but "there is no evidence that he ever had sexual contact with a child," McArthur said.She noted that Levin, who kept his head bowed for much of the sentencing, appeared "genuinely remorseful" and was deemed to have low risk of reoffending by the doctor who conducted his psychiatric assessment.Court has heard Levin used to frequent an online website with numerous chat rooms for the discussion of sexual activities.Among the people he chatted with were an undercover officer in Toronto, one in London, Ont., and one in New Zealand — all posing as women interested in sexual activities with children.In one case, he encouraged an undercover officer posing as a mother to sexually abuse her eight-year-old daughter.At no point did he clarify that it was purely a fantasy, or take steps to find out whether any real abuse was occurring, McArthur said."Mr. Levin did nothing to endure that a potentially real, innocent eight-year-old girl was unharmed. To the contrary, Mr. Levin continued to up the ante on the sexual abuse he suggested be perpetrated on the child," she said.Levin was arrested in July 2013 when a search warrant was executed at his home. He was a university professor at the time.His lawyer had sought a sentence of two years in a penitentiary, while the Crown sought up to three years and eight months behind bars.
