“Energy demands are soaring and Ontario will need new energy generation,” Bentley said. “As Mayor, I’m excited to be able to bridge that gap.
“OPG (Ontario Power Generation) has the old coal generating site sitting there with the infrastructure waiting to be developed.”
Bentley said the creation of a new fund with up to $50 million for municipal host communities for infrastructure investments and attraction of co-located industry will be a positive impact for Haldimand County.
“The addition to our municipal tax base, the associated jobs and economic development for our municipalities, I believe is a win for our county,” Bentley said. “I look forward to working with all parties in the upcoming months to start planning for our future and the future of our residents.”

Bentley commented following an announcement by Stephen Lecce, Ontario’s Minister of Energy and Electrification, last week.
Lecce said Nanticoke is one of three Ontario Power Generation (OPG) sites that are being examined as potential sites for future electricity developments. The other two sites are Lambton in St. Clair, previously home to coal-fired generating stations, and Wesleyville in Port Hope.
Bentley attended Lecce’s announcement.
“Our economy is undergoing a profound transformation — we are attracting historic investments in electric vehicle and battery production, the life sciences and manufacturing, and we’re electrifying whole industries like steel production,” Lecce said. “But with…
A second chair around Haldimand County’s council table is now empty after the death of Coun. Stewart Patterson on Tuesday.
Patterson, the Ward 1 representative, died early on Nov. 26 at age 65, less than a month after Coun. Marie Trainer died on Oct. 31 following a car crash.
Patterson — who spent the final 12 days of his political life as Haldimand’s deputy mayor — contended with an undisclosed illness in recent months and missed Monday’s council meeting.
He was in the midst of his second term as the representative for Jarvis, Townsend, Nanticoke and the surrounding area, after first being elected in 2018 and then acclaimed in 2022.
In a message of condolence, Mayor Shelley Ann Bentley called Patterson “a mentor to many,” noting his contributions to the municipality, which included roles with the police services board, Haldimand Norfolk Housing Corporation and Haldimand’s accessibility advisory committee.
“He was a staunch proponent of transparent and accountable government, earning the respect of colleagues and residents for his integrity and commitment to good governance,” read a statement issued by Haldimand County.
Chief administrative officer Cathy Case remembered Patterson as “a kind, thoughtful, diligent individual who worked hard to make a difference.”
Patterson immigrated from Northern Ireland as a teenager in 1974 and landed in Jarvis, later getting a job as a millwright at Stelco’s Lake Erie steelworks in Nanticoke, where he was active in the steelworkers union over his 30 years with the company.
He joined the Jarvis Lions Club in 1987 and went on to serve as local governor and district chair.
“He was, and wanted to be, involved in the community and give back to the community,” said Bill Kelly, president of the Jarvis Board of Trade and a fellow Lion who knew Patterson for almost 40 years through both organizations.
“I know him as a very community-minded…

An Axium Infrastructure fund will pay approximately $340 million to acquire a 49 per cent stake in two large Canadian wind power generation facilities from Capital Power Corp. (CPX-T), the firms announced Wednesday morning.
The 246-megawatt portfolio includes the Quality Wind facility in British Columbia and the Port Dover and Nanticoke Wind facility in Ontario, which are both fully operational. Upon closure of the transaction, it will represent one of the largest renewable energy facility transactions in the country during 2024.
“We are proud to announce this asset sell-down transaction which represents a concrete instance of us unlocking asset value in alignment with our strategy,” Jason Comandante, Power Capital’s senior vice-president and head of Canada, said in the announcement. “Our partnership with Axium, a well-respected investor, speaks to the market’s recognition of Capital Power as a top-tier operator and developer.”
Edmonton-based Capital Power reports the two wind facilities are fully contracted with investment-grade firms and have a remaining weighted average contract life of approximately 11 years.
Capital Power to operate the facilities
The Quality Wind facility in northeastern B.C. has an installed capacity of 142 megawatts. It was completed in 2013. The Port Dover and Nanticoke wind facility in southern Ontario was completed in 2012 and has an installed capacity of 104 megawatts.
As per the partnership terms, Capital Power will continue to manage and operate the assets under a long-term asset management agreement.
Capital Power says the transaction represents a return which exceeds its capital allocation thresholds, and enhances the company’s financial flexibility.
“We are very pleased to establish a partnership with Capital Power,” Axium’s vice-president and senior investment director Elio Gatto said in the announcement. “This…

A Canadian soldier deployed to Europe has died of medical complications.
The Canadian Armed Forces says Lt.-Col. Kent Miller was serving in Casteau, Belgium, when he died Monday.
It says he was serving under Operation Unifier, an Armed Forces program that trains Ukrainian military and security personnel in battlefield tactics and advanced military skills.
The military says Miller was an engineering officer with 24 years of experience in the Armed Forces.
It added that he was most recently the commanding officer of 41 Combat Engineer Regiment in Alberta and had been deployed to Belgium in a planning and co-ordination capacity.
Lt.-Gen. Steve Boivin, commander of the Canadian Joint Operations Command, said in a statement that Miller was a father and husband and his loss would be felt by many.

Steve Droter/Chesapeake Bay Program
The Chesapeake Bay Program’s Scientific and Technical Advisory Committee (STAC) was formed in December 1984 to provide independent scientific and technical advice to the state-federal Bay Program partnership. It does so through a combination of technical reports, workshops, discussions, reviews and participation on committees. It also serves as a liaison between the region’s scientific community and Bay Program partners, ensuring close cooperation among and between the various research institutions and agencies involved with the Bay cleanup.
I have been a member of STAC for 14 years and it has been my privilege to serve as its chair for the past year. My colleagues on the committee are a great group of about 40 dedicated environmental scientists and engineers from across the Chesapeake region, some appointed by governors, some representing federal agencies and some chosen through a rigorous nomination and appointment procedure. They have widely varied backgrounds and expertise but are united by their dedication to applying the best possible science toward restoration of the Bay and its watershed. Serving on STAC has been one of the highlights of my career.
In addition to its usual activities, STAC has focused on two extraordinary tasks in recent years. In 2023, we published our Comprehensive Evaluation of System Response (CESR) report, based on a rigorous multi-year examination of the status and trajectory of Bay Program efforts to date. STAC has also worked closely over the past year and a half with the Bay Program’s Beyond 2025 Steering Committee to look ahead at Bay restoration work. The CESR report has been well-received and extensively used in…
Dover, DE — Legacy Racing of Delaware and Nanticoke Racing’s Melvin G rolled to his sixth consecutive victory on Tuesday (Nov. 19) at Bally’s Dover, leaving his five rivals well behind en route to a 1:57.2 score in the faster of two $20,000 second-round divisions of the Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund series for 2-year-old male trotters.
With two horses breaking stride before the start, Melvin G and driver Jim Morand only had three rivals to contend with at race’s outset, and they pushed through at the pegs to seat Perfect Suprise (Pat Berry) in the pocket through a :29 first quarter. After rating a :58.4 half, Melvin G began to pull away from the others, extending his margin to 2-1/2 lengths at three-quarters in 1:28 before passing the winning post five lengths clear of the late-gaining Legend Of Rock (Corey Callahan) while geared down. Perfect Suprise faded to third.

Les Givens trains Melvin G, an E L Platinum-Jersey Punk gelding whose sixth win from nine starts pushed him over $100,000 in lifetime earnings. He paid $2.10 to win as the 1-20 favorite.
The first division saw second-time starter Yale and trainer-driver Art Stafford Jr. narrowly hold off Chex Check for a 1:58.4 win.
After finishing third to Melvin G on debut last week, Yale sustained a two-wide push through the first turn to work clear of Wolfpack Cheddar (Callahan) past a :28.4 first quarter before yielding for the pocket with a circuit to go. The E L Platinum-Press Corp colt pulled the pocket past three-quarters in 1:29, reeled in Wolfpack Cheddar, and evaded a late push from Chex Check (Tony Morgan) up the…
