Join us and celebrate Valentines Day. Treats fpr everyone
Suppers are held the second Thursday of the month from September through Junes for Valentines day, treats for everyone.
The trees around us can present more issues than you might think! Perhaps your trees are shading a neighbour’s garden, spreading branches over a fence or sending roots into a foundation. Maybe you’re trying to decide if and where you can plant a tree on your own property or how to take one down. Or you might have concerns with trees on municipal property — perhaps in a park or along a street.
Maybe you want to encourage your municipality to plant more trees, whether it’s to combat greenhouse gas emissions, to increase shade, or to help supply fruit for food banks. And then there are Memorial Trees, which are planted to commemorate an event or a loved one.
If you’re a Kingstonian who's ever wondered about these or other tree-related questions we invite you to the February KFPL Live monthly speakers’ series, where Greg Newman and arborists from the City of Kingston will talk about Trees in Kingston. You’ll learn about Kingston’s Forest Management Plan, Community Orchard and Edible Forest Policy, the revised Tree Bylaw and the Memorial Tree program.
There will be two presentations on Trees in Kingston — one at 2 p.m. on Saturday, February 9, at the Calvin Park branch, and the other at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, February 19 at the Isabel Turner branch. Both presentations will be the same. There is no admission charge. These talks are open to all adults, but seating is limited. To avoid disappointment, please register in advance. Register at events.kfpl.ca (or by phone at 613-549-8888) as of 9 a.m. on Saturday, January 26 for the Saturday, February 9 talk and on Saturday, February 9 for the February 19 talk. For more information, visit www.kfpl.ca .
Everyone is invited to come out for an afternoon of euchre and socializing at Dunlop United Church, 757 Rosedale Ave., each Friday at 1 p.m. No need to be a church member. Playing fee of $3 includes refreshments.

What is the difference between these Acts and what, as healthcare professionals or institutions, are your legal rights and responsibilities? Our presenters will address this topic from both legal and bioethical perspectives.
Mark Handelman, B.A., LL.B., MHSc (bioethics)
Mark Handelman was called to the Ontario Bar in 1978. Until 2001, he practiced law in London, Ontario, including civil litigation, criminal defense, and prosecution. He was one of Ontario’s first members of the Official Guardian Child Representation Program. Mark was appointed to the Consent & Capacity Board in 1998 and became a Vice Chair and Senior Lawyer Member in 2000. He became Acting Toronto Regional Vice Chair and then Regional Vice Chair in 2001, for which he stopped practicing law and moved to Toronto. He was the Board’s only Vice Chair for quality assurance and presided at about 2000 Board Hearings—including the majority of the Board’s “end of life” cases. Mark’s term on the Board expired in 2008 and he is now in the private practice of health care law, representing health practitioners, SDMs and patients and advising and teaching health care providers. He also prepares wills and Powers of Attorney, particularly for persons with limited capacity, and is frequently retained by other lawyers to assist their clients with these important documents. He is Counsel to the law firm Whaley Estate Litigation, advising on guardianship and estate litigation matters and is a Lawyer Member of the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, where he mediates and adjudicates Human rights complaints.
