Youth group making big gains in Manotick emma.jackson@metroland.com

News – A youth movement is gaining momentum in Manotick as the two-year anniversary of Tyler Campbell’s death creeps closer. In the past year, the Youth of Manotick Association (YOMA) has begun a weekly drop-in session on Friday nights; the Manotick Lions have chartered a Leo Club and the Kiwanis Key Club has expanded. Working with YOMA, Wat-

son’s Mill has even started its own Leaders in Training volunteer program. All of this came from a crisis two years ago, when a spike in break and enters lead police to realize that a small group of local teens were hooked on a potent prescription painkiller called fentanyl – an epidemic that lead to 17year-old Campbell’s overdose death on August 4, 2012. Ottawa Police staff sergeant responsible for break and enters, Kal Ghadban, said all that has changed in the past

two years. “Now I don’t hear about those issues in Manotick,” he said. “The break-ins that are occurring are the same that are occurring across the city. There’s no more, no less.” Ghadban said the small cohort of affected teens has largely received the help they needed, and peers who watched the crisis unfold have since stayed away from the drug. That doesn’t mean there aren’t still drugs in the village, but Ghadban said there’s no reason to believe there’s more experimentation here than anywhere else in the city. “I’m not seeing anything that’s sort of out of the ordinary,” he said, noting that ecstasy has been a growing issue in all parts of the region. “There’s certainly no indication that the Manotick area is seeing more use than another part of the city.” Ghadban said one of the biggest factors in solving the fentanyl issue was how quickly all factions of the community came together.

Less street, more feet: Heel ‘n Wheel gearing up for third event emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - A more streamlined Heel ‘N Wheel event aims to get more participants on the streets this fall to support cancer care south of Ottawa. The third annual event in support of the Winchester District Memorial Hospital’s

cancer program has cut its walking and cycling routes by half, with starting locations only in Finch, South Mountain and Greely on Saturday, Sept. 6. “We were really stretching ourselves trying to do that many routes, so we’re going to do three routes a year and then rotate them,� said Chris-

tina Enright, the community engagement manager for the hospital foundation, which runs the event. The Heel ‘n Wheel for Local Cancer Care offers a day of walking and cycling towards one common goal: increasing support for local cancer care at the Winchester hospital, according to the event’s web-

Riding for a Cancer Cure By Tracey Tong In late 2012, Tom Robertson was diagnosed with stage 4 bilateral squamous cell carcinoma in his neck. Treatment started in early 2013. “In between diagnosis and treatment, I saw this cool singlespeed, belt-drive bike at the store and thought that it would be a good idea to make it a goal to ride it after treatment,â€? said Tom. “But when I was ďŹ nished all the radiation and chemo, I had difďŹ culty even walking 50 feet, let alone ride a bike.â€?

Ride the Rideau is The Ottawa Hospital Foundation’s signature event. The event, which has raised more than $6.45 million for cancer research over the past

vice and ensure the program remains high quality is supporting it through funding and awareness,� she said. This year, Enright hopes the streamlined event will attract more than 100 participants, particularly from communities north of the Ottawa boundary, like Greely, Findlay Creek and Metcalfe. Enright said those communities are increasingly aware of the hospital’s services, and have started going south to access health care instead of driving into the city. “We’re finding we’re beginning to expand our relationship with those communities,� she said. “When people are using our services and they’re happy with them, we want them to think of us when they want to make a charitable donation.� Teams can register at heelnwheel.ca. Registration costs $25 per adult, and $10 per child. There are no fundraising minimums.

also provides chemotherapy for almost all types of cancer. Enright said raising awareness about the hospital’s cancer program is a key part of the event. “The thing that we consistently hear from cancer patients is how much it means to their recovery and their health to be able to have many of their treatments in Winchester,� said Enright, who is also a cancer survivor. “When I had my chemotherapy treatment in Winchester, it felt like home. The nurses know you and your family ... There’s that personal care that I believe did so much for my own recovery. You can’t put a price on that.� Enright said she still hears stories of patients across Eastern Ontario travelling into downtown Ottawa for their treatments, simply because they don’t know that Winchester offers them, too. “The only way you can continue to provide that ser-

site. Walkers and cyclists start their journey at one of the three locations, and meet up at the hospital for a celebration barbecue and party. Depending on where they begin, participants could walk or bike up to 34 kilometres to get to the hospital. That sounds hard, but cancer is harder – something participants are encouraged to keep in mind throughout their journey. “A lot of people said that they’d be thinking about their blister or the knot in their calf, and then realize this is nothing compared to going through cancer. And that gives them new energy to keep going,� Enright said. In the past, participants have raised upwards of $70,000 for cancer equipment and programs at the hospital, which include screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies, as well as breast and colon cancer surgery.

New bridge an opportunity to share the load: Manotick emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - With the opening of the Strandherd-Armstrong bridge, some residents in Manotick are hoping nearby communities will take their share of truck traffic. Manotick Village and Community Association president Klaus Beltzner said local truck routes need to be expanded to encourage truck traffic to access the new bridge instead of using Manotick’s Bridge Street over the Rideau River. “If you have more options, you’re spreading the load across the roads, so not one area alone is being hammered,” he said. Beltzner said local construction trucks are usually coming from Rideau Road and other sites in Greely, but they don’t have easy access to the new bridge. To fix this, Beltzner would like to see the intersection at Rideau and River roads controlled in some way – either with a light or a roundabout – to make it easier for trucks to get onto River Road. “They can then make the choice between the Manotick bridge and Strandherd-Armstrong, depending on where they need to go,” Beltzner said. He would also like to see Limebank Road identified as a truck route south of Earl Armstrong. But all of that is just an interim solution; what really needs to happen is an extension of Earl Armstrong to Bank Street, Beltzner said. Currently

the village, as Barrhaven and Riverside South drivers no longer need to go the long way around the river. “Anecdotally, I was gobsmacked both times I was driving through the village (at 4:50 and 5:50 p.m. on Tuesday, July 15),” said Janice Domaratzki. She said turning left onto Bridge from Manotick Main Street was a breeze, and she only had to wait for four cars to pass before turning left onto Long Island Road – a manoeuvre she usually has to do on a red light. Beltzner said he has traffic count numbers for Bridge from May 22, which can be compared to new traffic patterns once the summer is over. “By October we will know,” he said. FREEDOM BRIDGE

For Riverside South resident Mark Rogers, the long-awaited bridge opening means a much shorter commute – by a full 30 minutes. “It’s more time with my kids, home quicker to help with dinner, just more time at home,” said Rogers, who will

The Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge was opened to much fanfare on Saturday, July 12. Residents on both sides of the Rideau River applaud the $50-million structure. Dean Prigent, who lives in the Chapman Mills neighbourhood of Barrhaven, is now looking forward to a five-minute drive to his job at St. Francis Xavier Catholic High School in Riverside South. Since he began teaching there two years ago, he has been commuting through Manotick, which typically took him 25 minutes, sometimes longer depending on traffic.

return to work in September when his parental leave is finished. “I’ll be on it at 7:30 (a.m.) waving to my friends in Barrhaven on my way to work.” Residents on both sides of the Rideau River as well as politicians from all levels of government were on hand to celebrate the July 12 grand-opening of the $50-million bridge, which was initially scheduled for completion in 2012, but suffered delays after the construction company went into receivership.

it peters out just short of Albion Road, and as such is fairly useless as a truck route. The extension project was prefunded with $20 million in a draft of the city’s transportation master plan last fall, but Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt moved to have that funding transferred to a Prince of Wales widening project between Merivale and Hunt Club roads instead. At the time, the move was blasted by Manotick residents as outright abandonment by their councillor. But Beltzner said there is a silver lining in that the transportation master plan is looked at every five years, so the community has a chance to fast track the funding with a bit of strategic lobbying. “The good news is all the candidates I’ve spoken to in Osgoode Ward and Gloucester-South Nepean are eager to get Earl Armstrong extended,” he said. The new bridge is having some positive impact already. Manotick residents have been commenting on the reduction in overall traffic through

Giving back where they build

JP Fournier and Trish Watson, owners of the Turtle Island Brewing Company, presented a $2,000 cheque to Miller’s Oven directors Anne Middaugh and Jim Stewart on Friday, July 11. The money was raised during the Cooper Brothers Unplugged show, which was held on June 14 at the Manotick United Church. Turtle Island was a sponsor.

Ride the Rideau is a natural ďŹ t for Mattamy Homes, Canada’s largest new home builder, said Peter Gilgan, Founder and CEO of Mattamy Homes. Based in Toronto, Gilgan, who is an avid cyclist, recently signed up to do the 100-mile ride in Ottawa alongside his staff. “This is deďŹ nitely something that we’re proud to be a part of,â€? said Mark Parsons, President of the Ottawa Division of Mattamy Homes.

Mike Green, both avid cyclists, are leading group rides so all team members will be comfortable with their conditioning on the day of the Ride. The team has brought Mattamy’s small Ottawa ofďŹ ce closer together, Green said. “Ottawa has always supported Mattamy,â€? said Gilgan, “and we want to give back where we build.â€? According to the Canadian Cancer Society, cancer is the leading cause of death in Canada and is responsible for 30 cent of all deaths. An estimated 191,300 new cases of cancer and 76,600 deaths from cancer will occur in Canada in 2014. The proceeds from Ride the Rideau support the groundbreaking cancer research that will save or improve the quality of life for many.

In its ďŹ fth year, Ride the Rideau will be held Saturday, September 6. It features a brand-new 100 mile distance this year, in addition to its popular 50 km and agship 100 km rides.

Teen game show visits Manotick

emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Manotick will enjoy 30 minutes of fame next year, thanks to a French game show that filmed its first episode of the season in the village on July 14. Les Jumelles is a teen reality show styled like Amazing Race and broadcast on TFO (TĂŠlĂŠ-Française d’Ontario). Now in its third season, the crew travels around the province pitting pairs of teens against each other on a townwide scavenger hunt for clues to a final riddle. The answer to the riddle serves as the finish line, and always relates to the history or geography of the host town. The first team to get there wins the race. In order to reach this mysterious location before their opponents, the teams must accumulate GPS coordinates by finding and scanning QR codes hidden throughout the town. This year’s season began in Manotick’s Centennial Park, where the show’s hosts, a pair of identical twins from Rockland, Julie and Catherine Morin, got the teams started with their first clue. Usually contestants hail from the filming location, but production co-ordinator Alain Lauzon said it was dif-

them to fish a small item out of a vase without any hands. Hugo Groulx said, for him, it was solving the scavenger hunt that kept him on his toes. “Finding the locations was hard, because we’re not from here,� he said. Adding to the frustration is the knowledge that only one twin host is truly honest with her advice; teams must decide who to trust and hope they aren’t sent off in the wrong direction. The third season of Les Jumelles will travel to 13 cities this summer, including Embrun/St-Albert, Alfred/Plantagenet, Brockville and Alexandria in Eastern Ontario and, new this year, Montebello on the Quebec side. The team will also travel north to Mattawa, Noelville, Chelmsford/Azilda and Haileybury before heading to southern Ontario to visit Niagara Falls, Kitchener-Waterloo and Guelph. The show will air in the fall of 2015.

Contestants get their first clue during the filming of Les Jumelles in Centennial Park.

Cancer-free and enjoying each day By Tracey Tong Stephen Hanlon had the world by the tail. The 21-year-old had just returned from backpacking through Europe when the bomb dropped. He was diagnosed with testicular cancer which had metastasized to his kidney, lung and lymphatic system. “The prognosis didn’t look good,â€? remembered Stephen. “It wasn’t caught early. Everyone expected the worst.â€? Everyone except for Stephen’s oncologist, Dr. David Stewart, who worked at The Ottawa Hospital, where Stephen was treated. “I had a great oncologist,â€? said Stephen. “He reminded me of Clark Kent, and I thought, ‘I have Superman in my corner, so I’m going to be OK.â€? He underwent surgery, 12 weeks of chemotherapy and another extensive surgery. Complications landed him in ICU after going into respiratory arrest where once again the medical staff pulled him through and gave him the best of care. Fast forward many years and Stephen, who works with his wife Shirley on The Hanlon Real Estate Team at Kellar Williams in Mississauga, has just blown out 50 candles on his birthday cake. He’s an avid ďŹ tness fan

and has both a Boston Marathon and an Ironman under his belt. He’s also a proud dad of Jacob (19) and Sean (21). When his brother, Ottawa Hospital Research Institute Chief Operating OfďŹ cer Robert Hanlon approached Stephen about raising funds for the Hospital where he had been treated nearly 30 years earlier, Stephen eagerly agreed.

ficult to find French-speaking teens from the area. Instead, a brother-sister duo came from Embrun and a pair of best friends travelled from Aylmer. That just makes the clues that much more challenging, Lauzon said. “One team came yesterday to do some scouting, but you don’t know what the clues are going to be so I don’t know if it gave them an advantage,� he said. The teams went far and wide around the Manotick area. Some clues led the teams right into the historic village square, while others took them into the country to see fancy farms and furry friends. Embrun resident Annie Groulx, who ran the race with her brother Hugo, said the biggest hurdle was the ‘zany challenges’ both teams had to complete to finish the competition. One challenge involved identifying flowers by their smell alone; the other asked

Ghent roses mark end of War of 1812 Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - New beds of yellow roses at city hall are meant to bring attention to a little-known piece of Canadian history. The flowers surrounding the Elgin Street entrance to city hall’s heritage building are Ghent roses, created in 1815 to honour the Treaty of Ghent. The treaty brought an end to the War of 1812 when it was signed in the city of Ghent in the province of East Flanders, Belgium. “It is not widely known, in-

deed, that war was brought to a close in that city,� said Bruno van der Pluijim, outgoing ambassador of the Kingdom of Belgium, as he helped unveil the garden on July 14. To mark the war’s bicentennial anniversary in 2012, the Belgium embassy suggested donating 144 of the rose bushes to adorn city hall’s lawn. It was a “long road� to complete the garden, van der Pluijim said during his remarks at the unveiling, including a last-minute scramble when the plants were almost turned away at the United States-Canada

border when all the required documents weren’t in order. A ring of poppies and ornamental bushes complete the garden. The rose garden is in a fitting location at the newly named Nelson Mandela Square, in the shadow of the Human Rights monument. Along with the Second Peace of Paris Treaty that was also signed in 1815, the Treaty of Ghent was one of the first international treaties to acknowledge human rights by declaring the slave trade “irreconcilable with the principles of humanity and justice.� LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

Turning away from democracy

T

wo separate situations, occurring within days of one another, point to a dangerous trend away from democratic principles. The first has to do with the never-ending Carp dump saga. The corporation wants it. The people don’t. The corporation wins. Despite some 20 public meetings, dozens of residents’ submissions, the rise of opposition citizen groups, 18 council-backed recommendations from the city, and a hand delivered list from Mayor Jim Watson to the environment minister, the provincial government caved to Waste Management’s demand. Recently, as a last slap in the face to the democratic will of the people, city council voted in favour of the dump expansion. Council knew the city didn’t need another dump; Waste Management thought otherwise. But the city would have lost at the Ontario Municipal Board. Forget that council felt its hands were tied. Forget that a mockery was made of the democratic process. The corporation got what it wanted, no matter who it hurt.

The second case involved a cell tower. Rogers wanted it built next to 120 homes in Crown Point, far into Ottawa’s rural west end. Like the dump, property values would likely drop. But unlike the dump, the corporation listened to the protesters to the extent that it agreed to move the tower down the road. However, it is important to note that Rogers could have ignored the will of the people and the city’s suggestions, and instead appeal to Industry Canada. It could have gotten that cell tower built wherever it could find a landlord. It is only business interests that caused it to relent. A homeowner whose house would have been 40 feet away from the cell tower called the situation draconian. “How can Industry Canada just ignore what would happen to our property values?� said Vince Thompson. Good question. What to call this shift away from democracy and protection of citizens? When profit trumps all, another step is taken toward “corporatocracy.�

What else can we implode around here?

A

round here, the most watched computer video lately is the implosion of the Sir John Carling Building. The taking down of the building was spectacular, apparently flawless and way more fun to watch on the Internet than kittens. For reasons that are difficult to explain, the event drew hundreds of spectators at 7 a.m. on a Sunday morning and thousands more watched it on television and various online news sites. Perhaps the explanation for the video’s popularity is as simple as this: you get to watch a big explosion and nobody gets hurt. An intriguing aspect of one of the videos was a brief interview after the implosion with an official from the U.S. company that handled the demolition. “We want to come back,�

she said. Hmmm. Are more implosions are ahead for Ottawa? Although there were few serious objections to taking down the Sir John Carling Building, which nobody seemed to want, it is worth noting that the building wasn’t all that old. It was built in 1967. A lot of us were built well before that and we’re still standing. This means that candidates for the next implosion don’t necessarily have to be decrepit and at risk of fall-

ing down. The next one could appear perfectly fine to you, just as Sir John Carling did to the naked eye. According to newspaper reports, it was discovered as early as 1994 that the building was showing signs of neglect and might not be worth saving. That’s 27 years after it was built. Even the 47 years that have elapsed between construction and destruction don’t seem that long. Certainly many of the houses we live in are older than that and are doing just fine. So what do we learn from this? Is it that we need to look after our buildings better? Or is it that there is a rather brief planned obsolescence built into our newer structures? Could be either.

having the Agriculture Department all in one place on Carling Avenue. If the government was committed to the concept, it would have looked after the building better. Governments, like people, can be fickle. Meanwhile, keep your eyes peeled out at the airport for Americans in hardhats. What will they implode next? You probably have candidates of your own, such as most of Queen Street and many big box stores. Remember that the offending building need not be all that old. And it doesn’t have to be ugly. The Sir John Carling building, designed by the distinguished architect Hart Massey, certainly had its admirers. Yes, I can see you there with your hand raised. The Senate, you say. Well, there will be a lot of sympathy for that point of view. But think it through.

Fashion show takes Manotick back in time Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Arts – Bustles, belts and buttons will be on display at Dickinson House this weekend when models hit the runway in high Victorian fashion. On Saturday, July 26 as many as 19 Victorian-style dresses will be worn as part of the Rideau Township Historical Society’s annual Victorian fashion show and tea. Beginning at 1 p.m., volunteers will model recreation dresses from the 1860s to the early 1900s. Several of the dresses were made by Barbara Barkley, the show’s curator. Another comes from her grandmother’s collection. “One of them my grandmother made, and that’s an 1860-style dress,� said Barkley. She said her grandmother was her inspiration for making historical clothing – a talent Barkley has shown off for previous Dickinson House projects, including a wedding dress exhibit last summer and a women’s fashion exhibit the year before. The fashion show will begin with a slide show of historical undergarments, which the models will also show off. “They aren’t too revealing,� she said. The dresses will follow, and Barkley said guests can expect to see a marked change as the models take them

YOMA part of community push for programs Continued from the front

“We were able to rally the community, bring everyone together and have a multi-faceted approach,� Ghadban said. Between Ottawa police, Ottawa Public Health, The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre, local politicians, community groups and parent support, the village was able to successfully tackle the highly-publicized issue. “It’s the perfect example of the community coming together to solve a problem. “We couldn’t have done it alone, the Royal couldn’t do it alone. We all had our different agendas but we all brought something to the table.� FOR YOUTH, BY YOUTH

A big part of that movement was a push to bring more youth services to the commu-

nity. Last year, resident Janice Domaratzki seized the opportunity to start a youth group, with the hopes of building a new facility dedicated to programs, services and space for Manotick youth. “What we need is a space for kids who are suffering and need a place to go,� she said. “I think we’re dropping the ball if we don’t get services here to serve our kids.� Domaratzki has already established YOMA, which, with the help of United Way funding, meets every Friday for a teen drop-in. Without a permanent location, the group rotates between church basements, the legion and sometimes even Orchardview on the Rideau living centre. Sometimes the teens just hang out, or perhaps enjoy a casual cooking class. Other times they take field

That could cost as much as $875,000, because buildings on city land must meet commercial specifications, she said. Domaratzki hopes the facility would be modelled on the Osgoode Youth Association, which is housed in an old city fire hall in Osgoode. The city pays operating costs – maintenance, utilities and repairs – while O-YA is responsible for staffing and program costs. This spring, YOMA began the process to incorporate as a charitable organization so it can start accepting donations toward a building. Klaus Beltzner is a director on the new board, and said having a youth centre is important to give kids something to do. “If you don’t give them controlled risk, then they come up with their own risky ideas,� he said, noting that having ziplining dates and other thrilling activities will help. “If they can’t get high one way, they’ll get it another.� Ghadban agrees. “I always use the Boys and Girls Club as an example. If the kids weren’t there, where would they be? What would they be doing?� he said. “If you give kids something positive to do and keep them busy in a positive way, they’re not going to be searching for things to do.� Only slightly less thrilling than a trip to a trampoline park is the opportunity to get kids involved in local events, either as part of their mandatory community service hours

trips: they’ve already gone to SkyZone, a new trampoline park in the city, and at the end of August will go ziplining. The key to YOMA, Domaratzki said, is making sure it’s youth-led. Every month, core YOMA youth members get together to plan the activities they want to offer their peers. That’s an important aspect of the group if Domaratzki wants to realize her dream of a Manotick youth centre. She is currently working with the city’s parks and recreation department to secure land and funding, but staff have told her she needs to prove the youthled group is sustainable for at least two years. “Then they would give us a piece of land by the arena, but we would have to raise the money to build the space,� she said.

Manotick’s youth group has since morphed into the Youth of Manotick Association. or through YOMA’s programming. “We have so much trouble getting volunteers for events,� Beltzner said. “We’ve got teenagers who can do the job; for example, they can lift those heavy soapbox carts.� The Leo Club’s mandate is almost exclusively centred around this kind of community service, something Lions president Kris Schulz said will make a big difference once the new group really gets going in September.

News - A new Ottawa police program has motorists reporting 70 per cent of collisions to new reporting centres, the first of which opened July 14 in Kanata. The Collision Reporting Centre initiative looks to save police money and time by having motorists involved in noninjury collisions, which make up about 70 per cent of all collisions, report to the centre rather than wait for police to arrive at the scene. The program, in the works for the last two-and-a-half years, should save police $1.6 million a year, and 8,600 hours of patrol time. It will also get collisions cleared off roads quicker, said Insp. Sandra McLaren who is leading the new program’s implementation. “It enables you to save your own time,” she said. Before now, about 22 per cent of collisions were reported by motorists involved in the accident, said McLaren. Those were non-injury collisions where the vehicles involved were still driveable. Motorists involved in the collision then have to report immediately to the same police station. In an effort to make the process more efficient and more convenient for drivers, Ottawa police are now allowing motorists to report their collision within 24 hours, and not require those involved to report at the same time. The changes through the new program also allow for collisions where a vehicle is not

driveable to be self-reported as well. Vehicles can be towed to one of three Collision Reporting Centres, two of which have yet to be opened. The first centre opened July 14 at 211 Huntmar Dr. in Stittsville. The other two centres, located at 474 Elgin St. and 3343 St. Joseph Blvd., are expected to be open by the end of the year. When all three are open, police project 13,000 of Ottawa’s 18,000 annual collisions could be self-reported. “The reaction from the public has been superb,” said McLaren after several days of the centre being in full operation. That reflects the reaction the program received when it first started, she said. “The overwhelming feedback we got from motorists in general was, ‘Thank goodness you are going to get these collisions off the road.’” Non-injury collisions are not a high priority for police, meaning getting a police officer on the scene can take 30 minutes on average, and up to two hours, leaving motorists involved in the collision waiting on the side of the road in a potentially dangerous situation. “That collision can hold up thousands of people who are on their way somewhere else,” added McLaren. Now motorists can get their vehicles out of the way, go about their life and report their collision within 24 hours. MacLaren said the process reflects the kind of “self-serve” society we live in today. “While people may think that they may want to wait for police on the side of the road,

this is a priority four call for police, so it’s going to be up to two hours for them to actually arrive at the scene, and then once they get there, there will be a lengthy time to process the report,” she said. In the case of low-priority collisions, the value of having a police officer go to the scene is fairly low, said McLaren, as the vehicles will have likely been moved and a lot of evidentiary value will have already been lost. In this new system, officers can make a determination of who is at fault based on the motorists’ statements and photographs of the damages done to the vehicles. “So the investigation is done up front with the best evidence,” she said. With this new program, police collision reports are expected to cost $167 per report, said McLaren. These reports are sold to insurance companies, allowing police to save some money. Police used to save about 14 per cent of the cost or reports, or $204,000 yearly under the old system, said McLaren. Under this new system, police hope to save 50 per cent of the cost, or $1.6 million. “It’s a significant cost recovery and it’s a significant financial sustainability effort,” she said. Motorists involved in non-injury collisions in Ottawa’s west division (anywhere west of Rideau River, Dow’s Lake and Island Park Drive) can call 613230-6211 for instructions on how to handle their collision. Those in collisions involving injuries should continue calling 911, said McLaren.

MINIMIZE THE FINAL INCOME TAX LIABILITY OF YOUR ESTATE proper planning, a deceased’s “ Without income tax liability could be significant Did you know that approximately 80% of Canadians will donate to a charity during their lifetime? However, it is estimated that less than 10% will include a gift to a registered charity in their Will.

By Marty Clement, Leader EY’s Professionals Services marty.clement@ca.ey.com (613) 598-4894

This is one of a series of several articles intended to build awareness about the impact of legacy giving to Forever CHEO. In addition to the spiritual and community benefits of gifting to a registered charity, naming a registered charity as a beneficiary in your Will can also be an effective way to minimize the final income tax liability

of an estate. Without proper planning, a deceased’s income tax liability could be significant. Various income inclusions at the time of death, such as deemed capital gains and the fair market value of an RRSP can result in a higher than expected estate income tax liability given Canada’s graduated income tax rates.

Gifts to Forever CHEO can include cash legacies, bequests of real or personal property, securities, life insurance proceeds and all or part of the residue of the estate. All of these gifts can potentially generate tax credits available to reduce an estate’s income tax liability. Additionally, the gifting of certain types of capital property to Forever CHEO under the terms of a Will may avoid capital gains but still maximize the tax credits available from such a gift.

If you are interested in finding out about how you can leave a CHEO legacy, please contact Megan Doyle Ray at

megandoyle@cheofoundation.com or (613) 738-3694

”

Please feel free to contact any member of CHEO’s Legacy Advisory Committee for more information about minimizing the tax liability of your estate and how you can make a lasting impact on the kids and families at CHEO. We would be happy to help you create your Forever CHEO legacy for generations of CHEO patients.

Team Ontario gains four Gloucester Griffins Three lacrosse players hail from Greely Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Sports – Four Gloucester Griffins will get a chance to strut their stuff on the national stage this August when they join Team Ontario at the national lacrosse championships. Greely resident Cameron Badour, 15, will travel to Edmonton at the end of August to play midget field lacrosse in the men’s championship. Two female players from Greely will travel to Whitby, ON for box lacrosse, which is played indoors, beginning Aug. 6. Fourteen-year-old Camryn Gallagher will play bantam, while Kristen McKay will

Kamryn Simard, Kristen McKay, Cameron Badour and Camryn Gallagher have all been chosen to represent Ontario during the national lacrosse championships this August.

play midget box. Another Griffin, Kamryn Simard from the Hunt Club area, will also play in the girls’ box championships. Gloucester Minor Lacrosse Association president Mike McKay – Kristen’s father – said this year was a big year for the relatively small association, which plays out of the Earl Armstrong arena on Ogilvie Road. “We had more kids try out (for Team Ontario) than ever before,� he said. “For a lot of years there weren’t many trying out, partly because it’s in Toronto and beyond.� But he said having a few Gloucester players make the team in past few years has motivated others to aspire to the achievement. “They come back with jackets and things, and the other kids see that and it motivates them,� he said. In total, four girls and five boys travelled to Toronto for the gruelling full-day audi-

tions earlier this spring. “The try-outs are six hours long,� McKay said. “It’s at a higher level, a higher intensity and they’re competing against other top players.� He said just trying out can make someone a better player, even if they don’t make the provincial team. Certainly Badour felt trying out last year was helpful to him this time around. “This year I knew what to expect,� he said. Badour said he has been dreaming of making the provincial team for “my whole minor lacrosse life.� He’s been playing since he was kindergarten age, after his neighbours in Oakville encouraged him to get involved. Badour said he hopes the experience will help him get a lacrosse scholarship when it comes time to pick a post-secondary path. “I have a dream of playing for the Duke Blue Devils in North Carolina,� he said.

Gallagher and McKay both come from serious lacrosse families; Gallagher’s older brother played, and watching his games made her want to get involved. She’s now been playing for three years, and has already secured a spot on the provincial roster. McKay’s older brother also played lacrosse, and with her father acting as the association’s president it was hard not to be interested in the sport. “I played girls’ and I just loved the game so much,� she said. McKay is the only player of the four heading to nationals who has played for Team Ontario before. She made the team last year, and said it requires an extra level of effort. “It’s just a faster game,� she said. Both girls’ bantam and midget teams will begin their tournament on Wednesday, Aug. 6.

Connection to improve commute for Barrhaven, Riverside South drivers “I know I have a lot of coworkers in the same boat,� Prigent said the day before the bridge was officially opened. The bridge will also speed up the time it takes him to get his kids from daycare, and will let him get to students’ after-school games and practices in less time. “I’m looking forward to it,� he said. “I like going through Manotick. I like the shops there, but with the traffic (and) the way it was getting, some nights the drive home is 40 minutes because everybody has to make a choice. It’s either A or B. “And now there’s just a third option, and for Barrhaven residents it’s a nobrainer. It’s just across the bridge,� he said. BRIDGE TO THE FUTURE

The bridge’s opening was a long-time coming for

Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches, who presided over the grand-opening celebration on July 12.

I like going through Manotick. I like the shops there, but with the traffic (and) the way it was getting, some nights the drive home is 40 minutes. DEAN PRIGENT, CHAPMAN MILLS RESIDENT

Mayor Jim Watson, Foreign Affairs Minister and Ottawa West-Nepean Member of Parliament John Baird, Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre and Ottawa South Member of Provincial Parliament John Fraser all attended the event. The 143-metre-long bridge is billed at about $50 million,

though the final tally won’t be known until the completion of a final cost-analysis, which will factor in the recovery of penalty fees owed to the city by the original contractor, Desroches said. The original $48-million price tag is being split three ways between municipal, provincial and federal governments. The company went into receivership due to financial difficulties while in the process of building the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge in 2012, the year the structure was scheduled to be up and running. Construction initially began in 2010. The structure now features two dedicated transit lanes, two cycling lanes, sidewalks on both sides, four traffic lanes and dedicated turning lanes. Desroches said it will cut response times for firefighters, police officers and paramedics and give transit riders new routes. Calling the bridge a “criti-

Upon completion of this program students receive a college diploma and meet MTCU apprenticeship requirements. All two levels of in-school instruction

South will continue to grow (and) “that’s why we can’t stop with this project,� said Desroches. “We need an OTrain extension, we need improved transit to Barrhaven, we need to work on Prince of Wales to deal with some of the pressures there, we need to work on the Airport Parkway.� The bridge would one day

give Barrhaven residents easier access to an O-Train station on the outskirts of Riverside South if funding can be secured for an O-Train extension, Desroches said, adding the project is presently undergoing an environmental assessment. “I think the project offers a lot of bang for the buck,� he said.

When Serena Beairsto was 16, she began experiencing a pain in her left knee. “It just seemed to appear for no reason,� said Serena. Through X-rays and a bone scan, doctors diagnosed her with osteosarcoma. “I think my parents were more afraid than I was,� Serena remembered. “I didn’t think I was going to die.� She was admitted to a children’s hospital in Halifax, where she received chemotherapy and blood transfusions and had her left leg amputated just above the knee. The treatments were harsh, she said, but didn’t stop the cancer from returning. Just one year later, she was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her left lung.

disease from slowly killing her, Headley decided to make one final push. In May of this year she started fundraising to pay for a stem-cell transplant – the closest thing out there to a cure. In the hopes of having the best chance at surviving the risky procedure, Headley decided to see the Chicago-based doctor who pioneered the procedure on auto-immune diseases. It costs $125,000 US. But after the first few months of fundraising, Headley’s health was starting to fail. “I started to show more pain and more gastro-intestinal symptoms and more breathing problems,” said Headley. “People are starting to think about fundraisers in the fall, but (my family and I) are starting to think, ‘We’ve got to go soon.’” In two months, Headley, her four children and her parents had raised $13,000. That all changed on July 3. “I got a phone call,” she said. A man, speaking in a monotone voice, asked if he could drop off an anonymous donation in the form of a bank draft in the next 20 minutes.Shortly after, the man knocked on Headley’s door wearing a page-boy cap, large sunglasses and a jacket zipped up to his chin. “He shows up at the door and he says nothing to me,” said Headley. “Very straight faced, he hands me this envelope, and then I turn around and hand him a thank-you card. Just before he turned around to leave, I said, ‘Bless you,’ and he smiled … and

Stephanie Headley sits in a chair in her house hooked up to an oxygen tank on June 5. then he turned around and left. Not a word, not one word.” After the stranger left, Headley opened the envelope and looked inside. “I couldn’t believe what I was looking at,” she said. “When I realized it, I collapsed on the floor. I started crying and screaming and yelling, ‘Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!’” Headley told her mom, then her dad, and after verifying the note was real, she told her children. The reactions were the same: “My God, you are going to live.” With $138,000 saved up, Headley has scheduled her procedure for Sept. 22. The pair of fundraising websites where people can donate to Headley will stay open for the next while to help her save up for travel expenses and medication costs that go above and beyond the $125,000 US procedure. The procedure works by stripping a patient of their immune system using chemotherapy, and then retrieving stem cells from the patient which are then clear of the disease. The patient’s immune system is then re-grown using their own stem cells from the ground up. “They all but kill you to kill

the disease,” said Headley. The treatment will take three months. With an 80 per cent chance of survival, Headley hopes to be home and nearly 100 per cent free of the disease by late December. The anonymous donor, whom Headley described as “my special angel,” took pains to conceal his identity. However, she believes he is a Kanata resident because the bank draft had been drawn up at a bank in Kanata. She believes the man at the door was a successful man with a big heart who came at just the right time. “I really want to thank God, and I really want to thank this man from the bottom of my heart,” said Headley. “He has given me my life back, but more importantly he has saved my children from an inordinate amount of pain and a horrible loss that would leave them changed forever.” She sees the donation as nothing less than a miracle, and one she hopes will inspire others to go on. “Anybody out there who is hoping, praying, waiting, maybe in the same position, whether it’s them or their child, have hope. Keep the faith. Miracles do happen,” she said.

Elite athlete with autism communicating through athletic accomplishment adam.kveton@metroland.com

Sports - A young man from Kanata who has autism was the fastest Ottawa resident in this year’s Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon on May 25. The race was Tommy Des Brisay’s ďŹ rst full marathon at 22-years old, ďŹ nishing with a time of two hours and 39 minutes. It’s something Des Brisay has been working up to for years, with a half marathon personal best time of one hour 14 minutes and 56 seconds and many runs under his belt since he began running with his dad at 14 years old. That Des Brisay would do so well in the Ottawa marathon is really no surprise to his parents. He has always been a great athlete, and a dedicated one. “I’m going to be the ďŹ rst fastest runner in the world,â€? said Des Brisay. Though he works tirelessly

to be the best at what he does, his greatest accomplishments are the relationships he has gained through his achievements, said his mom, MaryAnn Given. Diagnosed with a severe communication disorder at two-and-a-half years old, Des Brisay’s parents were worried their son might never be able to build meaningful relationships. But they always knew he would be an athlete. At nine months, Des Brisay learned to walk and immediately began to show his athletic side. “He was explorative, he was hyper-active and into everything,� said Given.“He showed, at a young age, really good endurance and stamina and balance and coordination.� But when you called his name, Des Brisay didn’t respond. One of the few forms of communication he did engage with was Disney movies, and even there, his restless side came out.

TOMMY DES BRISAY

“He was not a passive watcher,� said Given. “He would run out of the room when the villains came and run towards the TV and laugh and jump up and down and dance to the music,� she said. Despite the joy the movies gave him, Des Brisay’s doctors said the movies weren’t good for him, and that he needed to engage more with people face-to-face. His parents didn’t R0012808464

listen. “I just thought, ‘If someone loves something that much, it’s got to be a good thing.’â€? said Given. So they bought more Disney movies. At this point, Des Brisay was still very non-verbal. At the age of nine, that changed. Des Brisay’s parents bought their ďŹ rst DVD – his favourite movie, The Jungle Book. He came running to his mother from the TV room. “He had it frozen at his favourite scene and he had turned on the subtitles,â€? she said. It was a eureka moment for them, because, when Given recited the words to her son, Des Brisay looked at them, and for the ďŹ rst time was able to say the words. That was a major turning point for Des Brisay, who can communicate rather well now. Certain questions remain difďŹ cult for him, and he continues to prefer communicating in writing, but it hasn’t kept him from graduating from Ottawa

Technical Secondary School in 2012 or auditing classes at the University of Ottawa. Des Brisay is a member of the Ottawa Lions Track and Field Club and the Rideau Canoe Club, a frequent rockclimber at Vertical Reality, an award-winning skier, runner and rower, not to mention an

avid user of social media with ďŹ ve million views on his YouTube channel. Many of Des Brisay’s athletic accomplishments are in mainstream competitions, as well as handicapped ones. “We all want a place in this world,â€? said Given, and Des Brisay has earned his.

Emerson’s invention gets him in hot water

M

other always said my brother Emerson was going to grow up to be a prominent scientist, or at the very least an inventor of note. He spent hours drawing on art paper that Mother somehow managed to buy at Ritza’s Drug Store at the one cent sale – you got five pads for a quarter, and then five more for a nickel. So Emerson always had a number of pads on which to draw mysterious glass buildings, unrecognizable structures, and maps of countries which existed only in his imagination. And he was forever dreaming up some idea that would make life easier on the farm. These ideas would be first put to paper, and if he could manage it, put into use, but rarely did any of them amount to a hill of beans. Take the time he thought if he put plank-like devices on the horses feet in the winter time it would prevent the horses from plunging belly- deep in the snow. Fortunately Father wouldn’t let him near the team, but Emerson was so sure the idea was one of the best he had ever dreamed up that he took his design and tucked it under

MARY COOK

an armful of binder twine. He beckoned me to come with him behind the cow byre. “If this works, I’ll make a fortune,” he said. “See if you can sidle up to that cow over there.”

Mary Cook’s Memories his bed with his collection of maps and pictures of buildings the likes of which we had never seen before, and thought we never would. And then one hot summer day he got another spurt of imagination. It happened when we were both swinging on the gate behind the cow byre. The cows were waiting to be put inside to be milked, and the horse flies were as thick as thieves. I felt so sorry for the cows. Their tails weren’t nearly long enough to swat the flies off their front parts, so I would often stand with a leafy branch and swish it over their backs chasing away these dreadful flies, which I hated with a passion. I was lamenting to Emerson that the horse flies even followed the cows into the barn. And I commented that once I started to milk I had to forgo chasing away the flies. Emerson hung most of his

body over the link fence. Not a muscle in his entire form was moving. He always went like that when he was thinking, sort of like being in a trance it was. That night while the rest of us sat looking at the Eaton’s catalogue at the kitchen table, Emerson was in a corner with his pad of graph paper. No one paid any attention to him – this was the way he spent many an hour. But the next day he took me into his confidence. I should have known better. The only time he ever confided in me about something as private as an invention was when he needed help. He had been working in the drive shed for most of the morning, and when he came out he searched the barnyard to make sure no one was in sight. He had two long poles, cleaned off branches really, off the lowest part of the big maple in our front yard, and

Now when she swishes her tail, it will reach farther and if my design is correct, she will kill the horse flies on contact.

Now, I know why I was taken into his confidence. Most of the cows were pets to me, and I had no trouble getting old Bossy to stand still. Emerson approached her rear end slowly with the two poles and the binder twine. Bossy was swishing her tail like mad. Emerson had to make two or three grabs before he got a hold of it. I was feeding hay into her mouth on Emerson’s orders.

He placed the two hefty limbs along each side of the tail and very quickly wrapped the binder twine around them because Bossy was beginning to wonder what was going on at her other end. When he had it secured, by wrapping some binder twine around her back legs, he dusted off his hands and said, “Now when she swishes her tail, it will reach farther and if my design is correct, she will kill the horse flies on contact.” He added, he would only try it out on one cow to see how it worked. Now, under ordinary circumstances nothing would have come of this exercise, and it would have gone the way of all Emerson’s inventions. But that evening Father was late coming in from the fields. We brought the cows inside in a hurry, and he went right at the milking. It was almost dark in the barn, as he positioned the stool at Bossy’s full udder, but you didn’t need much light to milk. Father was a scant foot from this weapon Bossy had attached to her tail. The horse flies loved the dank heat of the barn and the place was buzzing. Emerson was standing at

the barn door, which now I realized was very fortunate for him. Bossy’s tail was moving ever so slightly, and then one of the flies must have really done some damage, because that contraption Emerson had attached to her came around her rear end with a “why won’t ya” and connected with the side of Father’s head with such a whack that it knocked him off the stool and sent the milk flying. Father just sat there for several seconds trying to figure out what hit him. Then he got up and slowly made his way towards Bossy’s tail. He stood for the longest time looking at the two branches and the binder twine that he hadn’t noticed before. He let one roar out of him ordering Emerson to get in there at once. I turned to the door where Emerson had been standing. All I saw was our barn cat licking her paws and lapping at the spilt milk. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

The Ottawa Humane Society is helping to change the future for Ottawa’s animals. Off-Leash Camp at the OHS is well into its third week of the summer session and, as expected, campers are paws-itively loving every minute of it. Most kids come to camp because they love animals; some are even budding veterinarians. Camp programming offers campers hands-on opportunities to explore OHS shelter life in a way they never have before. Through daily visits from guest speakers, campers are able to catch a glimpse of the compassion and

Honouring Mandela A choir performs the national anthems of Canada and South Africa to welcome guests to a ceremony officially marking the renaming of the plaza outside city hall’s heritage building as Nelson Mandela Square. Mayor Jim Watson suggested the name earlier this year to honour the late South African anti-apartheid crusader, who died last December at the age of 95. The ceremony was held on July 17, a day before what would have been Mandela’s 96th birthday.

The ďŹ rst was her father, Jack, who was diagnosed with bladder cancer, and subsequently successfully treated with the oncolytic therapies the Ride would help support.

Since then, Dawn’s had another mammogram and ultrasound, and both came back clear. After a year off from Ride the Rideau, she and Arthur are plotting their return to the 100 km event at the ďŹ fth annual ride on Saturday, September 6 – on a tandem bicycle, of course.

The second was her love of bicycling. A cycling fanatic of more than 30 years, she and her husband, Arthur, met 28 years ago through the Ottawa Bicycle Club, and participate in Ride the Rideau every year on a tandem bicycle. With three rides already under her belt, irony struck when Dawn herself was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2013. The investment advisor with RBC Dominion Securities was 50 years old at the time.

“It was the closing of a chapter and the start of a new one,� Dawn, now 51, summed up perfectly.

A mammogram and an ultrasound conďŹ rmed the presence of a solid mass, and she underwent a biopsy and a battery of tests at The Ottawa Hospital. Although it was breast cancer, Dawn did get the good news that it was caught early. “The diagnosis came way out of left ďŹ eld,â€? Dawn remembered. Within two weeks, Dawn had undergone a lumpectomy. The results were excellent – the cancer had not yet spread, and the margins were clear. She underwent six rounds of chemotherapy over 18 weeks, as well as radiation, which ended February 13 of this year.

One of the best parts? Her dad – “a picture of health at 88 years old� – will be there to cheer them on, she said. To learn more about Ride the Rideau or to register as a rider or volunteer, visit www.ridetherideau.ca.

Ottawa invaded by British sports cars City hosts annual North American meeting Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - Ottawa was subjected to a British invasion last week – an attack mounted by a fleet of small vintage sports cars. More than 120 Morris Garages (MG) sports cars, coupes and saloons took over the city during the final leg of this year’s North American MGA Register’s Annual Get-Together. For many of the MG owners, the cruise started in Victoria on July 5 and ended up in Ottawa on July 14. Once in the capital, MG owners had a week full of activities, including a city drive, and for the first time, a car show open to the public at the Canada Science and Technology Museum on July 16, which drew hundreds of spectators and car enthusiasts.

MICHELLE NASH/METROLAND

Mayor Jim Watson makes his official ‘Mayor’s choice’ on July 16, picking a 1956 MG 1500 from Virginia, U.S. More than 120 British sports cars filled up the front lawn at the Canada Science and Technology Museum. Organized by the Ottawa MG Club, Andy Bounsall, chairman of the club, said creating the car show was an addition the Ottawa chapter thought would be a good way to include all of Ot-

tawa in the event. Hosting the event at the Canada Science and Technology Museum, Bounsall said was a natural fit. “They have been really great, and it’s the perfect place to have

the car show,” he said. North American MGA Register’s Annual Get-together is held in a different city each year. See CLASSIC, page 33

Classic cars take over at science museum Last year it was held in Asheville, N.C., located more than 1,500 kilometres south of Ottawa, a trip Bounsall happily made in his 1956 MGA 1500. Bringing the cruise to his home town this time around, Bounsall said, is an awesome feeling. “Here there is a mix of the MG group and friends and family and it’s really great to have them all in one place,” he said. Bounsall bought his MG 13 years ago on eBay with the blessing of his wife -- who later admitted to him had only said yes thinking he would be outbid by another classic car lover. “I had drooled over them for many years and then started to look for one for myself,” he said. Unfortunately for her, Bounsall said, his wife was wrong and he quickly drove

south to New York state to pick up his new toy. Since his purchase, Bounsall joined the Ottawa MG Club and began annual trips to the meetings until the North America club asked if Ottawa would host it this year, the first time the organization has come to Canada in five years. MG owners from all over North America made the trek to Ottawa to check out the capital, go for a drive along the Rockcliffe Parkway and see the sights. Wrapping up the week-long event, the host club offered an old time drive-in movie at the Courtyard Marriott hotel on Coventry Road where the majority of the group was staying and the annual general meeting was held on July 18.

Peter Croft has always been close to his father, Russell. 2013 EDITION

Despite living 4,000 miles apart – with Peter in Ottawa and Russell in Edinburgh, Scotland – the two men share an interest in fishing, and manage a visit every couple of years. Peter even followed in the footsteps of his architectural technologist dad, becoming an architect in the UK at 25, just before emigrating to Ottawa with his Canadian wife in 2001.

In 2009, Russell was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. Fortunately, the disease was caught very early and was highly treatable.

The dreaded disease returned again before last Christmas. This time, the relapse took a huge toll on the formerly strong man. “The first two fights with cancer wore him down,” Peter said. ‘This time, there were stays at the hospital for a bunch of complications,” Peter said. “His bowel ruptured, and he got very close to death’s door.”

His father, now 68, is “very frail” and housebound, and doctors have told his family that the cancer is beyond cure. “We are obviously devastated,” Peter said of his tightknit family. Searching for a way to make a difference here at home in Ottawa, Peter signed up for Ride the Rideau, The Ottawa Hospital Foundation’s signature event. The event, which has raised more than $6.45 million for cancer research over the past four years, will mark its fifth year on Saturday, September 6.

PULL AHEAD WITH TOP QUALITY CARE Suds Car Wash has it all…Express Tunnel, Indoor & Outdoor Self Serve, High Power Vacuum Stations There’s a new auto wash centre in Ottawa that raises the bar for vehicle care. Suds Car Wash has state-of-the-art equipment and techniques housed in the most user-friendly and welcoming centre you have ever experienced. Not your typical car wash, Suds Car Wash is all about quality and value.

“We operate on a different business model,” says owner Rick Moore. “We invest in the latest, high quality equipment, and eliminate labour. That’s why we say we are cleaner, better and faster.” A typical automated car wash can clean about 10 cars per hour. Suds Express Wash can wash over 100 cars per hour, virtually eliminating wait time. Combined with the 11 self service bays, Suds Car Wash can handle nearly 200 vehicles per hour.

“We’re off to a great start,” says Manager Dave ‘Cowboy’ McColl. “We’ve had all positive feedback so far.” The talk is all about the shine. No matter what you drive or the condition of the finish, you will be amazed at how much better your vehicle will look after a visit to Suds Car Wash. There are three levels of amazing finishes. You can choose the level of dazzle that suits you best. If you don’t have the time or energy to do it yourself then the three-minute Express Wash is the wash for you. Looking for the ultimate in total value? Choose Shine & Protect. Not only will you get everything offered in the other packages, your vehicle will receive special Tire Shine as well as Suds exclusive Fire & Ice Treatment. Fire & Ice Protectant leaves a lasting impression that will make your car look brighter than new. And if you run across more dirt later, just come back for 48 Hour Suds Clean Re-Wash for free! Suds Car Wash is easy on the environment too.

“Never waste your time in line or at least minimize it. Suds Express Wash will clean, wax and dry your car in approximately three minutes.”Suds Shine and Protect package will even shine your tires and give a free 48 hour rewash.

“Suds treats all water before it is sent to the sanitary sewer for further treatment,” points out Rick. “We also recycle the water that flows through the self-serve lines to keep them from freezing in the winter.”

Not a franchise, this is the second Suds location for Rick Moore. The first outlet in Kingston has been operating for 10 years and has won newspaper readers choice awards every year since opening. The same level of integrity is in the new Ottawa location, conveniently located in the heart of Nepean at 19999 Merivale Road, 1 km south of Hunt Club.

Every wash always ends with spot free water. This technique uses reverse osmosis to remove all solids from water. “Solids cause spots,” advises Rick. “Tap water has about 200 parts per million. Suds spot free water is always under five parts per million.” An And don’t forget friends and family. Suds Car Wash Gift Car make a thoughtful and practical present for any occaCards sion You can get Gift Cards online too, at www.sudscarwash. sion. ca.
