Kitchener woman wants answers on husband's electrocution death - Waterloo Record

KITCHENER — The wife of a Kitchener man who was electrocuted and killed while working at Elmira Pet Products last week says she wants answers on how her husband died on the job. Chiu Bowie said her husband, Michael Bowie, 61, was working a regular Friday night shift at the pet food plant and was set to finish at 11 p.m. He was last seen by a fellow employee at about 10:30 p.m., said Waterloo Regional Police. Bowie said she thought her husband was working overtime, but when he didn't come home early Saturday morning she was worried. She drove to the Martin's Lane plant and saw her husband's car in the parking lot. She went in and found her husband on the floor. Chiu Bowie wants answers on how her husband, who had worked at the pet food manufacturer for more than 15 years, died doing a job he knew well. "My husband paid with his life," she said in an interview Wednesday. "For almost 14 hours he lay dead there. It's terrible," said the 62-year-old hair stylist. Police were called to the sprawling plant just before 12 p.m. Saturday after Bowie was found. Ministry of Labour spo...

PM EDTLast Updated Friday, June 17, 2016 6:14PM EDT Police have identified the victim of a Woolwich Township crash as a man from Elora. 23-year-old Shawn Beam died after a head-on crash east of Elmira on Northfield Drive, north of Line 86.  The collision occurred around 4:45 p.m. on Thursday. Police say Beam lost control of the car he was driving, crashed into a dump truck and rolled into the ditch.  He was pronounced dead at the scene.  The dump truck driver had only minor injuries.  Police say they do not believe drugs or alcohol were factors in the crash, but speed may have been.

Clark Davey, 1928-2019: 'The true journalist of journalists' - Ottawa Citizen

He was heartbroken after failing his medical, but an English teacher told him that people would pay him to write. So he enrolled in the first journalism degree course taught at University of Western Ontario, graduating in 1948 and joining the newsroom of the Chatham Daily News.There, he worked under Richard "Dic" Doyle, but moved to Kirkland Lake when the Thomson newspaper chain made him editor-in-chief of the Northern Daily News. His time there was brief, however, as his girlfriend, Joyce Gordon, issued him an ultimatum: Northern Ontario or me. He chose her: they married in September 1952.In the meantime, he joined the newsroom of the Globe and Mail, where his mentor Doyle had been working for a year.As a reporter with the Globe, Davey covered national and international affairs, including the Suez Canal crisis, the St. Lawrence Seaway project and the cancellation of the Avro Arrow program. During the 1957 federal election campaign, he recognized that Tory leader John Diefenbaker was gaining momentum and might actually win, and convinced his editors to allow him to stay with the Chief's campaign for 40 days. Clark Davey, former publisher of the Montreal Gazette, displaying a mock-up of the paper's new Sunday edition in 1988. Bill Grimshaw / The Canadian Press When Doyle became editor of the Globe in 1963, he chose Davey as his managing editor, and, according to Mills, the two raised the broadsheet's reputation from that of a local paper to a national one. Davey was managing editor for 15 years before joining the Vancouver Sun in 1978. He was publisher there until 1983, when he took over at the Gazette. He was publisher of the Citizen from 1989 to 1993. He was also president and chair of The Canadian Press, and co-founder and president of the Michener Awards Foundation that oversees the country's most prestigious journalism prize."He was the true journalist of journalists," says Kim Kierans, journalism professor at University of King's College in Halifax and Michener Foundation board member. "He told me when I last saw him in November, ‘If we're not providing the encouragement for journalism organizations and journalists within them to do the journalism that matters, then we're in trouble as a democracy.'"He was also a lovely man, smart and sparkling … with incredible enthusiasm for the business and its future."According to Mills, Davey, who in 2002 led a protest on the steps of the Ottawa Citizen after Mills was fired for running an editorial critical of then-prime minister Jean Chrétien, was known as tough and gruff, "but deep down he was a really kind and thoughtful person, and a very good friend who was always fair to people. But if you didn't know him, he could be intimidating."And although he called the shots on the job, it was Joyce who ruled the home roost. According to son Ric, his father only stopped the presses twice - once while at the Globe, when Joyce called him to report that she and Ric thought they had just seen a UFO."That was the kind of pull she had over him," says Ric.Clark Davey is survived by his wife, Joyce; brother Kenneth George; children Ric (Rita Celli), Kevin (Margaret) and Clark Jr. (...
